From f4c18e6f7b5bbb5b528b3334115806b0d76f50f9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Naoya Horiguchi Date: Thu, 6 Aug 2015 15:47:08 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] mm: check __PG_HWPOISON separately from PAGE_FLAGS_CHECK_AT_* The race condition addressed in commit add05cecef80 ("mm: soft-offline: don't free target page in successful page migration") was not closed completely, because that can happen not only for soft-offline, but also for hard-offline. Consider that a slab page is about to be freed into buddy pool, and then an uncorrected memory error hits the page just after entering __free_one_page(), then VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(page->flags & PAGE_FLAGS_CHECK_AT_PREP) is triggered, despite the fact that it's not necessary because the data on the affected page is not consumed. To solve it, this patch drops __PG_HWPOISON from page flag checks at allocation/free time. I think it's justified because __PG_HWPOISON flags is defined to prevent the page from being reused, and setting it outside the page's alloc-free cycle is a designed behavior (not a bug.) For recent months, I was annoyed about BUG_ON when soft-offlined page remains on lru cache list for a while, which is avoided by calling put_page() instead of putback_lru_page() in page migration's success path. This means that this patch reverts a major change from commit add05cecef80 about the new refcounting rule of soft-offlined pages, so "reuse window" revives. This will be closed by a subsequent patch.
