[PATCH v5 1/2] mm,hwpoison: fix race with hugetlb page allocation

From: Naoya Horiguchi
Date: Tue May 18 2021 - 19:13:19 EST


From: Naoya Horiguchi <naoya.horiguchi@xxxxxxx>

When hugetlb page fault (under overcommitting situation) and
memory_failure() race, VM_BUG_ON_PAGE() is triggered by the following race:

CPU0: CPU1:

gather_surplus_pages()
page = alloc_surplus_huge_page()
memory_failure_hugetlb()
get_hwpoison_page(page)
__get_hwpoison_page(page)
get_page_unless_zero(page)
zero = put_page_testzero(page)
VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(!zero, page)
enqueue_huge_page(h, page)
put_page(page)

__get_hwpoison_page() only checks the page refcount before taking an
additional one for memory error handling, which is wrong because there's
a time window where compound pages have non-zero refcount during
initialization. So make __get_hwpoison_page() check page status a bit
more for hugetlb pages.

Fixes: ead07f6a867b ("mm/memory-failure: introduce get_hwpoison_page() for consistent refcount handling")
