mm: thp: move pmd check inside ptl for freeze_page()
I found a race condition triggering VM_BUG_ON() in freeze_page(), when running a testcase with 3 processes: - process 1: keep writing thp, - process 2: keep clearing soft-dirty bits from virtual address of process 1 - process 3: call migratepages for process 1, The kernel message is like this: kernel BUG at /src/linux-dev/mm/huge_memory.c:3096! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP Modules linked in: cfg80211 rfkill crc32c_intel ppdev serio_raw pcspkr virtio_balloon virtio_console parport_pc parport pvpanic acpi_cpufreq tpm_tis tpm i2c_piix4 virtio_blk virtio_net ata_generic pata_acpi floppy virtio_pci virtio_ring virtio CPU: 0 PID: 28863 Comm: migratepages Not tainted 4.6.0-v4.6-160602-0827-+ #2 Hardware name: Bochs Bochs, BIOS Bochs 01/01/2011 task: ffff880037320000 ti: ffff88007cdd0000 task.ti: ffff88007cdd0000 RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff811f8e06>] [<ffffffff811f8e06>] split_huge_page_to_list+0x496/0x590 RSP: 0018:ffff88007cdd3b70 EFLAGS: 00010202 RAX: 0000000000000001 RBX: ffff88007c7b88c0 RCX: 0000000000000000 RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: 0000000700000200 RDI: ffffea0003188000 RBP: ffff88007cdd3bb8 R08: 0000000000000001 R09: 00003ffffffff000 R10: ffff880000000000 R11: ffffc000001fffff R12: ffffea0003188000 R13: ffffea0003188000 R14: 0000000000000000 R15: 0400000000000080 FS: 00007f8ec241d740(0000) GS:ffff88007dc00000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: 00007f8ec1f3ed20 CR3: 000000003707b000 CR4: 00000000000006f0 Call Trace: ? list_del+0xd/0x30 queue_pages_pte_range+0x4d1/0x590 __walk_page_range+0x204/0x4e0 walk_page_range+0x71/0xf0 queue_pages_range+0x75/0x90 ? queue_pages_hugetlb+0x190/0x190 ? new_node_page+0xc0/0xc0 ? change_prot_numa+0x40/0x40 migrate_to_node+0x71/0xd0 do_migrate_pages+0x1c3/0x210 SyS_migrate_pages+0x261/0x290 entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x1a/0xa4 Code: e8 b0 87 fb ff 0f 0b 48 c7 c6 30 32 9f 81 e8 a2 87 fb ff 0f 0b 48 c7 c6 b8 46 9f 81 e8 94 87 fb ff 0f 0b 85 c0 0f 84 3e fd ff ff <0f> 0b 85 c0 0f 85 a6 00 00 00 48 8b 75 c0 4c 89 f7 41 be f0 ff RIP split_huge_page_to_list+0x496/0x590 I'm not sure of the full scenario of the reproduction, but my debug showed that split_huge_pmd_address(freeze=true) returned without running main code of pmd splitting because pmd_present(*pmd) in precheck somehow returned 0. If this happens, the subsequent try_to_unmap() fails and returns non-zero (because page_mapcount() still > 0), and finally VM_BUG_ON() fires. This patch tries to fix it by prechecking pmd state inside ptl.
