I recall that there are corner cases where we can end up with an anon page that's mapped writable but still in the swap cache ... so you'd fallback to the GUP slow path (acceptable for these corner cases, I guess), however especially the comment is a bit misleading then. So I'd suggest not dropping the folio_test_anon() check, or open-coding it ... which will make this piece of code most certainly easier to get when staring at folio_mapping().

Hmm, naturally, I would have done it afterwards. IIRC, without IPI syncs during TLB flush (i.e., CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE), there is the possibility that (1) We lookup the pte (2) The page was unmapped and free (3) The page gets reallocated and used (4) We pin the page (5) We dereference page->mapping If we then de-reference page->mapping that gets used by whoever allocated it for something completely different (not a pointer to something reasonable), I wonder if we might be in trouble. Checking first, whether the PTE changed makes sure that what we pinned and what we're looking at is what we expected. ... I can spot that the page_is_secretmem() check is also done before that. But it at least makes sure that it's still an LRU page before staring at the mapping (making it a little safer?). BUT, I keep messing up this part of the story. Maybe it all works as expected because we will be synchronizing RCU somehow before actually freeing the page in the !IPI case. ... but I think that's only true for page tables with CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE. -- Thanks, David / dhildenb
