mm, hugetlb: use pte_present() instead of pmd_present() in follow_huge_pmd()

2017-04-08T07:53:32+00:00

commit c9d398fa237882ea07167e23bcfc5e6847066518 upstream.

I found the race condition which triggers the following bug when
move_pages() and soft offline are called on a single hugetlb page
concurrently.

    Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception

This bug is triggered when pmd_present() returns true for non-present
hugetlb, so fixing the present check in follow_huge_pmd() prevents it.
Using pmd_present() to determine present/non-present for hugetlb is not
correct, because pmd_present() checks multiple bits (not only
_PAGE_PRESENT) for historical reason and it can misjudge hugetlb state.

mm/hugetlb.c: fix reservation race when freeing surplus pages

2017-01-19T19:17:19+00:00

commit e5bbc8a6c992901058bc09e2ce01d16c111ff047 upstream.

return_unused_surplus_pages() decrements the global reservation count,
and frees any unused surplus pages that were backing the reservation.

Commit 7848a4bf51b3 ("mm/hugetlb.c: add cond_resched_lock() in
return_unused_surplus_pages()") added a call to cond_resched_lock in the
loop freeing the pages.

As a result, the hugetlb_lock could be dropped, and someone else could
use the pages that will be freed in subsequent iterations of the loop.
This could result in inconsistent global hugetlb page state, application
api failures (such as mmap) failures or application crashes.

When dropping the lock in return_unused_surplus_pages, make sure that
the global reservation count (resv_huge_pages) remains sufficiently
large to prevent someone else from claiming pages about to be freed.

mm/hugetlb: fix memory offline with hugepage size > memory block size

2016-10-31T10:13:58+00:00

commit 2247bb335ab9c40058484cac36ea74ee652f3b7b upstream.

Patch series "mm/hugetlb: memory offline issues with hugepages", v4.

This addresses several issues with hugepages and memory offline.  While
the first patch fixes a panic, and is therefore rather important, the
last patch is just a performance optimization.

The second patch fixes a theoretical issue with reserved hugepages,
while still leaving some ugly usability issue, see description.

This patch (of 3):

dissolve_free_huge_pages() will either run into the VM_BUG_ON() or a
list corruption and addressing exception when trying to set a memory
block offline that is part (but not the first part) of a "gigantic"
hugetlb page with a size > memory block size.

When no other smaller hugetlb page sizes are present, the VM_BUG_ON()
will trigger directly.  In the other case we will run into an addressing
exception later, because dissolve_free_huge_page() will not work on the
head page of the compound hugetlb page which will result in a NULL
hstate from page_hstate().

To fix this, first remove the VM_BUG_ON() because it is wrong, and then
use the compound head page in dissolve_free_huge_page().  This means
that an unused pre-allocated gigantic page that has any part of itself
inside the memory block that is going offline will be dissolved
completely.  Losing an unused gigantic hugepage is preferable to failing
the memory offline, for example in the situation where a (possibly
faulty) memory DIMM needs to go offline.

Changes for v4.4 stable:
  - make it apply w/o commit c1470b33 "mm/hugetlb: fix incorrect
    hugepages count during mem hotplug"

hugetlb: fix nr_pmds accounting with shared page tables

2016-09-07T06:32:35+00:00

commit c17b1f42594eb71b8d3eb5a6dfc907a7eb88a51d upstream.

We account HugeTLB's shared page table to all processes who share it.
The accounting happens during huge_pmd_share().

If somebody populates pud entry under us, we should decrease pagetable's
refcount and decrease nr_pmds of the process.

By mistake, I increase nr_pmds again in this case.  :-/ It will lead to
"BUG: non-zero nr_pmds on freeing mm: 2" on process' exit.

Let's fix this by increasing nr_pmds only when we're sure that the page
table will be used.

mm/hugetlb: avoid soft lockup in set_max_huge_pages()

2016-08-20T16:09:24+00:00

commit 649920c6ab93429b94bc7c1aa7c0e8395351be32 upstream.

In powerpc servers with large memory(32TB), we watched several soft
lockups for hugepage under stress tests.

The call traces are as follows:
1.
get_page_from_freelist+0x2d8/0xd50
__alloc_pages_nodemask+0x180/0xc20
alloc_fresh_huge_page+0xb0/0x190
set_max_huge_pages+0x164/0x3b0

2.
prep_new_huge_page+0x5c/0x100
alloc_fresh_huge_page+0xc8/0x190
set_max_huge_pages+0x164/0x3b0

This patch fixes such soft lockups.  It is safe to call cond_resched()
there because it is out of spin_lock/unlock section.

Dmitry identified a potential memory leak in the routine region_chg,
where a region descriptor is not free'ed on an error path.

However, the root cause for the above memory leak resides in region_del.
In this specific case, a "placeholder" entry is created in region_chg.
The associated page allocation fails, and the placeholder entry is left
in the reserve map.  This is "by design" as the entry should be deleted
when the map is released.  The bug is in the region_del routine which is
used to delete entries within a specific range (and when the map is
released).  region_del did not handle the case where a placeholder entry
exactly matched the start of the range range to be deleted.  In this
case, the entry would not be deleted and leaked.  The fix is to take
these special placeholder entries into account in region_del.

The region_chg error path leak is also fixed.

mm: hugetlb: call huge_pte_alloc() only if ptep is null

2015-12-12T18:15:34+00:00

Currently at the beginning of hugetlb_fault(), we call huge_pte_offset()
and check whether the obtained *ptep is a migration/hwpoison entry or
not.  And if not, then we get to call huge_pte_alloc().  This is racy
because the *ptep could turn into migration/hwpoison entry after the
huge_pte_offset() check.  This race results in BUG_ON in
huge_pte_alloc().

We don't have to call huge_pte_alloc() when the huge_pte_offset()
returns non-NULL, so let's fix this bug with moving the code into else
block.

Note that the *ptep could turn into a migration/hwpoison entry after
this block, but that's not a problem because we have another
!pte_present check later (we never go into hugetlb_no_page() in that
case.)

mm: hugetlb: fix hugepage memory leak caused by wrong reserve count

2015-12-12T18:15:34+00:00

When dequeue_huge_page_vma() in alloc_huge_page() fails, we fall back on
alloc_buddy_huge_page() to directly create a hugepage from the buddy
allocator.

In that case, however, if alloc_buddy_huge_page() succeeds we don't
decrement h->resv_huge_pages, which means that successful
hugetlb_fault() returns without releasing the reserve count.  As a
result, subsequent hugetlb_fault() might fail despite that there are
still free hugepages.

This patch simply adds decrementing code on that code path.

I reproduced this problem when testing v4.3 kernel in the following situation:
 - the test machine/VM is a NUMA system,
 - hugepage overcommiting is enabled,
 - most of hugepages are allocated and there's only one free hugepage
   which is on node 0 (for example),
 - another program, which calls set_mempolicy(MPOL_BIND) to bind itself to
   node 1, tries to allocate a hugepage,
 - the allocation should fail but the reserve count is still hold.
