Subject: [PATCH net] rhashtable: fix crash due to mm api change
Date: Mon, 26 Sep 2022 10:31:39 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220926083139.48069-1-fw@strlen.de> (raw)
Martin Zaharinov reports BUG() in mm land for 5.19.10 kernel:
kernel BUG at mm/vmalloc.c:2437!
invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP
CPU: 28 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/28 Tainted: G W O 5.19.9 #1
[..]
RIP: 0010:__get_vm_area_node+0x120/0x130
__vmalloc_node_range+0x96/0x1e0
kvmalloc_node+0x92/0xb0
bucket_table_alloc.isra.0+0x47/0x140
rhashtable_try_insert+0x3a4/0x440
rhashtable_insert_slow+0x1b/0x30
[..]
bucket_table_alloc uses kvzalloc(GPF_ATOMIC). If kmalloc fails, this now
falls through to vmalloc and hits code paths that assume GFP_KERNEL.
I sent a patch to restore GFP_ATOMIC support in kvmalloc but mm
maintainers rejected it.
This patch is partial revert of
commit 93f976b5190d ("lib/rhashtable: simplify bucket_table_alloc()"),
to avoid kvmalloc for ATOMIC case.
As kvmalloc doesn't warn when used with ATOMIC, kernel will only crash
once vmalloc fallback occurs, so we may see more crashes in other areas
in the future.
Most other callers seem ok but kvm_mmu_topup_memory_cache looks like it
might be affected by the same breakage, so Cc kvm@.
