------------------------------------------------------ From: Miaohe Lin linmiaohe@huawei.com Subject: mm/hugetlb: fix potential race with try_memory_failure_hugetlb() Date: Wed, 10 Jul 2024 16:14:45 +0800
There is a potential race between __update_and_free_hugetlb_folio() and try_memory_failure_hugetlb():
CPU1 CPU2 __update_and_free_hugetlb_folio try_memory_failure_hugetlb spin_lock_irq(&hugetlb_lock); __get_huge_page_for_hwpoison folio_test_hugetlb -- It's still hugetlb folio. folio_test_hugetlb_raw_hwp_unreliable -- raw_hwp_unreliable flag is not set yet. folio_set_hugetlb_hwpoison -- raw_hwp_unreliable flag might be set. spin_unlock_irq(&hugetlb_lock); spin_lock_irq(&hugetlb_lock); __folio_clear_hugetlb(folio); -- Hugetlb flag is cleared but too late! spin_unlock_irq(&hugetlb_lock);
When this race occurs, raw error pages will hit pcplists/buddy. Fix this issue by deferring folio_test_hugetlb_raw_hwp_unreliable() until __folio_clear_hugetlb() is done. The raw_hwp_unreliable flag cannot be set after hugetlb folio flag is cleared.
