Subject: [ 04/23] hugetlbfs: add swap entry check in follow_hugetlb_page()
Date: Tue, 23 Apr 2013 14:56:11 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130423215456.757821679@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20130423215456.307216898@linuxfoundation.org>
3.0-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Naoya Horiguchi <n-horiguchi@ah.jp.nec.com>
commit 9cc3a5bd40067b9a0fbd49199d0780463fc2140f upstream.
With applying the previous patch "hugetlbfs: stop setting VM_DONTDUMP in
initializing vma(VM_HUGETLB)" to reenable hugepage coredump, if a memory
error happens on a hugepage and the affected processes try to access the
error hugepage, we hit VM_BUG_ON(atomic_read(&page->_count) <= 0) in
get_page().
The reason for this bug is that coredump-related code doesn't recognise
"hugepage hwpoison entry" with which a pmd entry is replaced when a memory
error occurs on a hugepage.
In other words, physical address information is stored in different bit
layout between hugepage hwpoison entry and pmd entry, so
follow_hugetlb_page() which is called in get_dump_page() returns a wrong
page from a given address.
The expected behavior is like this:
absent is_swap_pte FOLL_DUMP Expected behavior
-------------------------------------------------------------------
true false false hugetlb_fault
false true false hugetlb_fault
false false false return page
true false true skip page (to avoid allocation)
false true true hugetlb_fault
false false true return page
With this patch, we can call hugetlb_fault() and take proper actions (we
wait for migration entries, fail with VM_FAULT_HWPOISON_LARGE for
hwpoisoned entries,) and as the result we can dump all hugepages except
for hwpoisoned ones.
