The cause is the "memset(pgdat, 0, sizeof(*pgdat))" at the end of try_offline_node,
which will reset the all content of pgdat to 0, as the pgdat is accessed lock-lee,
so that the users still using the pgdat will panic, such as the vmstat_update routine.
So the solution here is postponing the reset of obsolete pgdat from try_offline_node()
to hotadd_new_pgdat(), and just resetting pgdat->nr_zones and pgdat->classzone_idx to
be 0 rather than the memset 0 to avoid breaking pointer information in pgdat.

So refresh_cpu_vm_stats() is doing for_each_populated_zone(), which calls
next_zone(), and we've iterated over all zones for a particular node. We
call next_online_pgdat() with the pgdat of the previous zone's
zone->zone_pgdat, and that explodes on dereference, right?
I have to ask because 3.10 is an ancient kernel, a more recent example for
the changelog would be helpful if it's reproducible.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it's not accessing pgdat at all, it's
accessing zone->zone_pgdat->node_id and zone->zone_pgdat is invalid. I
don't _think_ there's anything different with 3.10, but I'd be happy to be
shown wrong.

I don't see how memset(pgdat, 0, sizeof(*pgdat)) can cause the error
above, can you be more specific?

This is a mysterious combination of fields to reset and will surely become
outdated when the struct is changed.

Hi David,
process A: offline node XX:
vmstat_updat()
refresh_cpu_vm_stats()
for_each_populated_zone()
find online node XX
cond_resched()
offline cpu and memory, then try_offline_node()
node_set_offline(nid), and memset(pgdat, 0, sizeof(*pgdat))
zone = next_zone(zone)
pg_data_t *pgdat = zone->zone_pgdat; // here pgdat is NULL now
next_online_pgdat(pgdat)
next_online_node(pgdat->node_id); // NULL pointer access

It's just to avoid the warning in free_area_init_node()
WARN_ON(pgdat->nr_zones || pgdat->classzone_idx);
It will be called when hotadd a new node.
Thanks,
