The PG_hwpoison page will be caught and isolated on the entrance to the free buddy page pool. so,when we clear this flag and return it to the buddy system,mark codetags for pages as empty.

Thanks for your patch.
The PG_hwpoison page will be caught and isolated on the entrance to the free buddy page pool. so,when we clear this flag and return it to the buddy system,mark codetags for pages as empty.
Is below scene cause the problem?
1. Pages are allocated. pgalloc_tag_add() will be called when prep_new_page().
2. Pages are hwpoisoned. memory_failure() will set PG_hwpoison flag and pgalloc_tag_sub() will be called when pages are caught and isolated on the entrance to buddy.
3. unpoison_memory cleared flags and sent the pages to buddy. pgalloc_tag_sub() will be called again in free_pages_prepare().
So there is a imbalance that pgalloc_tag_add() is called once and pgalloc_tag_sub() is called twice?
If so, let's think about more complicated scene:
1. Same as above.
2. Pages are hwpoisoned. But memory_failure() fails to handle it. So PG_hwpoison flag is set but pgalloc_tag_sub() is not called (pages are not sent to buddy).
3. unpoison_memory cleared flags and calls clear_page_tag_ref() without calling pgalloc_tag_sub() first. Will this cause problem?
Though this should be really rare...
Thanks. .

Great, I didn't anticipate this scenario.
When we call clear_page_tag_ref() without calling pgalloc_tag_sub(),
It will cause exceptions in|tag->counters->bytes|and|tag->counters->calls|.
We can add a layer of protection to handle it
The pseudocode is as follows:
if (mem_alloc_profiling_enabled()) { union codetag_ref *ref = get_page_tag_ref(page);
if (ref) { if( ref->ct != NULL && !is_codetag_empty(ref)) { tag = ct_to_alloc_tag(ref->ct); this_cpu_sub(tag->counters->bytes, bytes); this_cpu_dec(tag->counters->calls); } set_codetag_empty(ref); put_page_tag_ref(ref); } }
Hi Suren and Kent
Do you have any suggestions for this? If it's okay, I'll add comments and include this pseudocode in|clear_page_tag_ref|.

The PG_hwpoison page will be caught and isolated on the entrance to the free buddy page pool. so,when we clear this flag and return it to the buddy system,mark codetags for pages as empty.
Is below scene cause the problem?
Pages are allocated. pgalloc_tag_add() will be called when prep_new_page().
Pages are hwpoisoned. memory_failure() will set PG_hwpoison flag and pgalloc_tag_sub()
will be called when pages are caught and isolated on the entrance to buddy.
Hi Folks, Thanks for reporting this! Could you please describe in more details how memory_failure() ends up calling pgalloc_tag_sub()? It's not obvious to me which path leads to pgalloc_tag_sub(), so I must be missing something. On a conceptual level I want to understand if the page isolated in this manner should be considered freed or not. If it shouldn't be considered free then I think the right fix would be to avoid pgalloc_tag_sub() when this isolation happens. Thanks, Suren.
- unpoison_memory cleared flags and sent the pages to buddy. pgalloc_tag_sub() will be
called again in free_pages_prepare().
So there is a imbalance that pgalloc_tag_add() is called once and pgalloc_tag_sub() is called twice?
As you said, that's exactly the case.
If so, let's think about more complicated scene:
Same as above.
Pages are hwpoisoned. But memory_failure() fails to handle it. So PG_hwpoison flag is set
but pgalloc_tag_sub() is not called (pages are not sent to buddy).
- unpoison_memory cleared flags and calls clear_page_tag_ref() without calling pgalloc_tag_sub()
first. Will this cause problem?
Though this should be really rare...
Thanks. .
Great, I didn't anticipate this scenario.
When we call clear_page_tag_ref() without calling pgalloc_tag_sub(),
It will cause exceptions in|tag->counters->bytes|and|tag->counters->calls|.
We can add a layer of protection to handle it
The pseudocode is as follows:
if (mem_alloc_profiling_enabled()) { union codetag_ref *ref = get_page_tag_ref(page);
if (ref) { if( ref->ct != NULL && !is_codetag_empty(ref)) { tag = ct_to_alloc_tag(ref->ct); this_cpu_sub(tag->counters->bytes, bytes); this_cpu_dec(tag->counters->calls); } set_codetag_empty(ref); put_page_tag_ref(ref); }
}
Hi Suren and Kent
Do you have any suggestions for this? If it's okay, I'll add comments and include this pseudocode in|clear_page_tag_ref|.

OK,Let me describe the scenario I encountered.
In the Link [1] I mentioned,here is the logic behind it:
It performed the following operations:
madvise(ptrs[num_alloc], pagesize, MADV_SOFT_OFFLINE)
and then the kernel's call stack looks like this:
do_madvise
soft_offline_page
page_handle_poison
__folio_put
free_unref_page
It will set a flag within the following function and then release the page.
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v6.11-rc4/source/mm/memory-failure.c#L206
and and then,because you set the PG_hwpoison flag, so the page will be caught and isolated on the
entrance to the free buddy page pool. look here:
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v6.11-rc4/source/mm/page_alloc.c#L1052
At this very moment, we call pgalloc_tag_sub.
So,when we callunpoison_memoryclear this flag and return the page to the buddy system, the problem arises.
On a conceptual level I want to understand if the page isolated in this manner should be considered freed or not. If it shouldn't be considered free then I think the right fix would be to avoid pgalloc_tag_sub() when this isolation happens. Thanks, Suren.
In my understanding, the purpose of unpoison_memory is to reclaim poisoned pages.
I dug up the patch that introduced this function back then
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/mm/m...
Therefore, this is reasonable.

And I've come up with a minimal solution. If everyone agrees, I'll send the patch.look this

Do you have any suggestions for this? If it's okay, I'll add comments and include this pseudocode in|clear_page_tag_ref|.

The PG_hwpoison page will be caught and isolated on the entrance to the free buddy page pool.
But for poisoned pages which software injected errors, we can reclaim it through unpoison_memory.
So mark codetags for it as empty,just like when a page is first added to the buddy system.

Hi Hao, Thanks for fixing this. I find this description a bit unclear. How about something like this:
When PG_hwpoison pages are freed, they are treated differently in free_pages_prepare() and instead of being released they are isolated. Page allocation tag counters are decremented at this point since the page is considered not in use.

To fix this, clear the page tag reference after the page got isolated and accounted for.
Fixes: a8fc28dad6d5 ("alloc_tag: introduce clear_page_tag_ref() helper function")
This would be more appropriate: Fixes: d224eb0287fb ("codetag: debug: mark codetags for reserved pages as empty")

Hi Suren
Thank you for reviewing this patch and for your suggestions.
The description looks clearer now. I will revise it based on your suggestions and send out version 2.

To fix this, clear the page tag reference after the page got isolated and accounted for.

Thanks for your patch.
The PG_hwpoison page will be caught and isolated on the entrance to the free buddy page pool. so,when we clear this flag and return it to the buddy system,mark codetags for pages as empty.
Is below scene cause the problem?
Pages are allocated. pgalloc_tag_add() will be called when prep_new_page().
Pages are hwpoisoned. memory_failure() will set PG_hwpoison flag and pgalloc_tag_sub()
will be called when pages are caught and isolated on the entrance to buddy.
Hi Folks, Thanks for reporting this! Could you please describe in more details how memory_failure() ends up calling pgalloc_tag_sub()? It's not obvious to me which path leads to pgalloc_tag_sub(), so I must be missing something.
OK,Let me describe the scenario I encountered.
In the Link [1] I mentioned,here is the logic behind it:
It performed the following operations:
madvise(ptrs[num_alloc], pagesize, MADV_SOFT_OFFLINE)
and then the kernel's call stack looks like this:
do_madvise
soft_offline_page
page_handle_poison
__folio_put
free_unref_page
I just reviewed it and I think I missed a stack.
Actually, it's like this
do_madvise
soft_offline_page
soft_offline_in_use_page
page_handle_poison
__folio_put
free_unref_page
And I've come up with a minimal solution. If everyone agrees, I'll send the patch.look this
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v6.11-rc4/source/mm/page_alloc.c#L1056
Let's directly call clear_page_tag_ref after pgalloc_tag_sub.
I tend to agree with you. It should be a good practice to call clear_page_tag_ref() whenever page_tag finished its work. Do you think below code is also needed?

Actually, this is not necessary,It follows the normal logic of allocation and release.
The actual intention of the clear_page_tag_reffunction is to indicate to thealloc_tag that the page is not being returned to the
buddy system through normal allocation.
Just like when the page first enters the buddy system,

Yes, we don't need to clear_page_tag_ref() after every pgalloc_tag_sub(), only in this special situation. alloc_tag_sub() resets ref->ct to NULL at the end, so not clearing the tag allows us to catch if an extra alloc_tag_sub() is called on this page later.
The actual intention of the clear_page_tag_reffunction is to indicate to thealloc_tag that the page is not being returned to the
buddy system through normal allocation.
