From 9d08ec41a0645283d79a2e642205d488feaceacf Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yu Zhao yuzhao@google.com Date: Sat, 19 Oct 2024 22:22:12 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] mm: allow set/clear page_type again
Some page flags (page->flags) were converted to page types (page->page_types). A recent example is PG_hugetlb.
From the exclusive writer's perspective, e.g., a thread doing __folio_set_hugetlb(), there is a difference between the page flag and type APIs: the former allows the same non-atomic operation to be repeated whereas the latter does not. For example, calling __folio_set_hugetlb() twice triggers VM_BUG_ON_FOLIO(), since the second call expects the type (PG_hugetlb) not to be set previously.
Using add_hugetlb_folio() as an example, it calls __folio_set_hugetlb() in the following error-handling path. And when that happens, it triggers the aforementioned VM_BUG_ON_FOLIO().
if (folio_test_hugetlb(folio)) { rc = hugetlb_vmemmap_restore_folio(h, folio); if (rc) { spin_lock_irq(&hugetlb_lock); add_hugetlb_folio(h, folio, false); ...
It is possible to make hugeTLB comply with the new requirements from the page type API. However, a straightforward fix would be to just allow the same page type to be set or cleared again inside the API, to avoid any changes to its callers.
