Subject: [PATCH 5.4 39/47] mm: mempolicy: fix THP allocations escaping mempolicy restrictions

From: Andrey Ryabinin <arbn@...dex-team.com>

commit 338635340669d5b317c7e8dcf4fff4a0f3651d87 upstream.

alloc_pages_vma() may try to allocate THP page on the local NUMA node
first:

	page = __alloc_pages_node(hpage_node,
		gfp | __GFP_THISNODE | __GFP_NORETRY, order);

And if the allocation fails it retries allowing remote memory:

	if (!page && (gfp & __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM))
    		page = __alloc_pages_node(hpage_node,
					gfp, order);

However, this retry allocation completely ignores memory policy nodemask
allowing allocation to escape restrictions.

The first appearance of this bug seems to be the commit ac5b2c18911f
("mm: thp: relax __GFP_THISNODE for MADV_HUGEPAGE mappings").

The bug disappeared later in the commit 89c83fb539f9 ("mm, thp:
consolidate THP gfp handling into alloc_hugepage_direct_gfpmask") and
reappeared again in slightly different form in the commit 76e654cc91bb
("mm, page_alloc: allow hugepage fallback to remote nodes when
madvised")

Fix this by passing correct nodemask to the __alloc_pages() call.

The demonstration/reproducer of the problem:

    $ mount -oremount,size=4G,huge=always /dev/shm/
    $ echo always > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/defrag
    $ cat mbind_thp.c

    int main(int argc, char **argv)
    {
        int fd;
        unsigned long long i;
        char *addr;
        pid_t pid;
        char buf[100];
        unsigned long nodemask = 1;

        fd = open("/dev/shm/test", O_RDWR|O_CREAT);
        assert(fd > 0);
        assert(ftruncate(fd, SIZE) == 0);

        addr = mmap(NULL, SIZE, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE,
                           MAP_SHARED, fd, 0);

        assert(mbind(addr, SIZE, MPOL_BIND, &nodemask, 2, MPOL_MF_STRICT|MPOL_MF_MOVE)==0);
        for (i = 0; i < SIZE; i+=4096) {
          addr[i] = 1;
        }
        pid = getpid();
        snprintf(buf, sizeof(buf), "grep shm /proc/%d/numa_maps", pid);
        system(buf);
        sleep(10000);

        return 0;
    }
