Subject: [PATCH 2/2] mm: Account for MAP_SHARED mappings using VM_MAYSHARE and not VM_SHARED in hugetlbfs
hugetlbfs reserves huge pages but does not fault them at mmap() time to ensure
that future faults succeed. The reservation behaviour differs depending on
whether the mapping was mapped MAP_SHARED or MAP_PRIVATE. For MAP_SHARED
mappings, hugepages are reserved when mmap() is first called and are tracked
based on information associated with the inode. Other processes mapping
MAP_SHARED use the same reservation. MAP_PRIVATE track the reservations
based on the VMA created as part of the mmap() operation. Each process
mapping MAP_PRIVATE must make its own reservation.
hugetlbfs currently checks if a VMA is MAP_SHARED with the VM_SHARED flag and
not VM_MAYSHARE. For file-backed mappings, such as hugetlbfs, VM_SHARED is
set only if the mapping is MAP_SHARED and the file was opened read-write. If a
shared memory mapping was mapped shared-read-write for populating of data and
mapped shared-read-only by other processes, then hugetlbfs would account for
the mapping as if it was MAP_PRIVATE. This causes processes to fail to map
the file MAP_SHARED even though it should succeed as the reservation is there.
This patch alters mm/hugetlb.c and replaces VM_SHARED with VM_MAYSHARE when
the intent of the code was to check whether the VMA was mapped MAP_SHARED
or MAP_PRIVATE.
