Subject: [PATCH v2 1/3] mm/hugetlb: take refcount under page table lock in follow_huge_pmd()
We have a race condition between move_pages() and freeing hugepages,
where move_pages() calls follow_page(FOLL_GET) for hugepages internally
and tries to get its refcount without preventing concurrent freeing.
This race crashes the kernel, so this patch fixes it by moving FOLL_GET
code for hugepages into follow_huge_pmd() with taking the page table lock.
This patch passes the following test. And libhugetlbfs test shows no
regression.
$ cat movepages.c
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <numaif.h>
#define ADDR_INPUT 0x700000000000UL
#define HPS 0x200000
#define PS 0x1000
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
int i;
int nr_hp = strtol(argv[1], NULL, 0);
int nr_p = nr_hp * HPS / PS;
int ret;
void **addrs;
int *status;
int *nodes;
pid_t pid;
pid = strtol(argv[2], NULL, 0);
addrs = malloc(sizeof(char *) * nr_p + 1);
status = malloc(sizeof(char *) * nr_p + 1);
nodes = malloc(sizeof(char *) * nr_p + 1);
while (1) {
for (i = 0; i < nr_p; i++) {
addrs[i] = (void *)ADDR_INPUT + i * PS;
nodes[i] = 1;
status[i] = 0;
}
ret = numa_move_pages(pid, nr_p, addrs, nodes, status,
MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL);
if (ret == -1)
err("move_pages");
for (i = 0; i < nr_p; i++) {
addrs[i] = (void *)ADDR_INPUT + i * PS;
nodes[i] = 0;
status[i] = 0;
}
ret = numa_move_pages(pid, nr_p, addrs, nodes, status,
MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL);
if (ret == -1)
err("move_pages");
}
return 0;
}
$ cat hugepage.c
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/mman.h>
#include <string.h>
#define ADDR_INPUT 0x700000000000UL
#define HPS 0x200000
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
int nr_hp = strtol(argv[1], NULL, 0);
char *p;
while (1) {
p = mmap((void *)ADDR_INPUT, nr_hp * HPS, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_HUGETLB, -1, 0);
if (p != (void *)ADDR_INPUT) {
perror("mmap");
break;
}
memset(p, 0, nr_hp * HPS);
munmap(p, nr_hp * HPS);
}
}
$ sysctl vm.nr_hugepages=40
$ ./hugepage 10 &
$ ./movepages 10 $(pgrep -f hugepage)
Note for stable inclusion:
This patch fixes e632a938d914 ("mm: migrate: add hugepage migration code
to move_pages()"), so is applicable to -stable kernels which includes it.
ChangeLog v2:
- introduce follow_huge_pmd_lock() to do locking in arch-independent code.
