mm/huge_memory: fix folio isn't locked in softleaf_to_folio()

2026-04-02T11:23:29+00:00

[ Upstream commit 4c5e7f0fcd592801c9cc18f29f80fbee84eb8669 ] On arm64 server, we found folio that get from migration entry isn't locked in softleaf_to_folio(). This issue triggers when mTHP splitting and zap_nonpresent_ptes() races, and the root cause is lack of memory barrier in softleaf_to_folio(). The race is as follows: CPU0 CPU1 deferred_split_scan() zap_nonpresent_ptes() lock folio split_folio() unmap_folio() change ptes to migration entries __split_folio_to_order() softleaf_to_folio() set flags(including PG_locked) for tail pages folio = pfn_folio(softleaf_to_pfn(entry)) smp_wmb() VM_WARN_ON_ONCE(!folio_test_locked(folio)) prep_compound_page() for tail pages In __split_folio_to_order(), smp_wmb() guarantees page flags of tail pages are visible before the tail page becomes non-compound. smp_wmb() should be paired with smp_rmb() in softleaf_to_folio(), which is missed. As a result, if zap_nonpresent_ptes() accesses migration entry that stores tail pfn, softleaf_to_folio() may see the updated compound_head of tail page before page->flags. This issue will trigger VM_WARN_ON_ONCE() in pfn_swap_entry_folio() because of the race between folio split and zap_nonpresent_ptes() leading to a folio incorrectly undergoing modification without a folio lock being held. This is a BUG_ON() before commit 93976a20345b ("mm: eliminate further swapops predicates"), which in merged in v6.19-rc1. To fix it, add missing smp_rmb() if the softleaf entry is migration entry in softleaf_to_folio() and softleaf_to_page().

mm: add PTE_MARKER_GUARD PTE marker

2024-11-11T08:26:44+00:00

Add a new PTE marker that results in any access causing the accessing process to segfault. This is preferable to PTE_MARKER_POISONED, which results in the same handling as hardware poisoned memory, and is thus undesirable for cases where we simply wish to 'soft' poison a range. This is in preparation for implementing the ability to specify guard pages at the page table level, i.e. ranges that, when accessed, should cause process termination. Additionally, rename zap_drop_file_uffd_wp() to zap_drop_markers() - the function checks the ZAP_FLAG_DROP_MARKER flag so naming it for this single purpose was simply incorrect. We then reuse the same logic to determine whether a zap should clear a guard entry - this should only be performed on teardown and never on MADV_DONTNEED or MADV_FREE. We additionally add a WARN_ON_ONCE() in hugetlb logic should a guard marker be encountered there, as we explicitly do not support this operation and this should not occur.

mm: provide mm_struct and address to huge_ptep_get()

2024-07-12T22:52:15+00:00

On powerpc 8xx huge_ptep_get() will need to know whether the given ptep is a PTE entry or a PMD entry. This cannot be known with the PMD entry itself because there is no easy way to know it from the content of the entry. So huge_ptep_get() will need to know either the size of the page or get the pmd. In order to be consistent with huge_ptep_get_and_clear(), give mm and address to huge_ptep_get().

mm,swapops: update check in is_pfn_swap_entry for hwpoison entries

2024-04-16T22:39:50+00:00

Tony reported that the Machine check recovery was broken in v6.9-rc1, as he was hitting a VM_BUG_ON when injecting uncorrectable memory errors to DRAM. After some more digging and debugging on his side, he realized that this went back to v6.1, with the introduction of 'commit 0d206b5d2e0d ("mm/swap: add swp_offset_pfn() to fetch PFN from swap entry")'. That commit, among other things, introduced swp_offset_pfn(), replacing hwpoison_entry_to_pfn() in its favour. The patch also introduced a VM_BUG_ON() check for is_pfn_swap_entry(), but is_pfn_swap_entry() never got updated to cover hwpoison entries, which means that we would hit the VM_BUG_ON whenever we would call swp_offset_pfn() for such entries on environments with CONFIG_DEBUG_VM set. Fix this by updating the check to cover hwpoison entries as well, and update the comment while we are it.

Patch series "mm: convert mm counter to take a folio", v3. Make sure all mm_counter() and mm_counter_file() callers have a folio, then convert mm counter functions to take a folio, which saves some compound_head() calls.

mm: make PTE_MARKER_SWAPIN_ERROR more general

2023-08-18T17:12:16+00:00

Patch series "add UFFDIO_POISON to simulate memory poisoning with UFFD", v4. This series adds a new userfaultfd feature, UFFDIO_POISON. See commit 4 for a detailed description of the feature. This patch (of 8): Future patches will reuse PTE_MARKER_SWAPIN_ERROR to implement UFFDIO_POISON, so make some various preparations for that: First, rename it to just PTE_MARKER_POISONED. The "SWAPIN" can be confusing since we're going to re-use it for something not really related to swap. This can be particularly confusing for things like hugetlbfs, which doesn't support swap whatsoever. Also rename some various helper functions. Next, fix pte marker copying for hugetlbfs. Previously, it would WARN on seeing a PTE_MARKER_SWAPIN_ERROR, since hugetlbfs doesn't support swap. But, since we're going to re-use it, we want it to go ahead and copy it just like non-hugetlbfs memory does today. Since the code to do this is more complicated now, pull it out into a helper which can be re-used in both places. While we're at it, also make it slightly more explicit in its handling of e.g. uffd wp markers. For non-hugetlbfs page faults, instead of returning VM_FAULT_SIGBUS for an error entry, return VM_FAULT_HWPOISON. For most cases this change doesn't matter, e.g. a userspace program would receive a SIGBUS either way. But for UFFDIO_POISON, this change will let KVM guests get an MCE out of the box, instead of giving a SIGBUS to the hypervisor and requiring it to somehow inject an MCE. Finally, for hugetlbfs faults, handle PTE_MARKER_POISONED, and return VM_FAULT_HWPOISON_LARGE in such cases. Note that this can't happen today because the lack of swap support means we'll never end up with such a PTE anyway, but this behavior will be needed once such entries *can* show up via UFFDIO_POISON.

mm/migrate: remove cruft from migration_entry_wait()s

2023-06-19T23:19:12+00:00

migration_entry_wait_on_locked() does not need to take a mapped pte pointer, its callers can do the unmap first. Annotate it with __releases(ptl) to reduce sparse warnings. Fold __migration_entry_wait_huge() into migration_entry_wait_huge(). Fold __migration_entry_wait() into migration_entry_wait(), preferring the tighter pte_offset_map_lock() to pte_offset_map() and pte_lockptr().

mm/hugetlb: move swap entry handling into vma lock when faulted

2023-01-19T01:12:38+00:00

In hugetlb_fault(), there used to have a special path to handle swap entry at the entrance using huge_pte_offset(). That's unsafe because huge_pte_offset() for a pmd sharable range can access freed pgtables if without any lock to protect the pgtable from being freed after pmd unshare. Here the simplest solution to make it safe is to move the swap handling to be after the vma lock being held. We may need to take the fault mutex on either migration or hwpoison entries now (also the vma lock, but that's really needed), however neither of them is hot path. Note that the vma lock cannot be released in hugetlb_fault() when the migration entry is detected, because in migration_entry_wait_huge() the pgtable page will be used again (by taking the pgtable lock), so that also need to be protected by the vma lock. Modify migration_entry_wait_huge() so that it must be called with vma read lock held, and properly release the lock in __migration_entry_wait_huge().
