commit 6376360ecbe525a9c17b3d081dfd88ba3e4ed65b upstream.

Currently memory_failure() is racy against process's exiting, which
results in kernel crash by null pointer dereference.

The root cause is that memory_failure() uses force_sig() to forcibly
kill asynchronous (meaning not in the current context) processes.  As
discussed in thread https://lkml.org/lkml/2010/6/8/236 years ago for OOM
fixes, this is not a right thing to do.  OOM solves this issue by using
do_send_sig_info() as done in commit d2d393099de2 ("signal:
oom_kill_task: use SEND_SIG_FORCED instead of force_sig()"), so this
patch is suggesting to do the same for hwpoison.  do_send_sig_info()
properly accesses to siglock with lock_task_sighand(), so is free from
the reported race.

I confirmed that the reported bug reproduces with inserting some delay
in kill_procs(), and it never reproduces with this patch.

Note that memory_failure() can send another type of signal using
force_sig_mceerr(), and the reported race shouldn't happen on it because
force_sig_mceerr() is called only for synchronous processes (i.e.
BUS_MCEERR_AR happens only when some process accesses to the corrupted
memory.)

<title>mm/memory-failure.c: use compound_head() flags for huge pages</title>

commit 7258ae5c5a2ce2f5969e8b18b881be40ab55433d upstream.

memory_failure() chooses a recovery action function based on the page
flags.  For huge pages it uses the tail page flags which don't have
anything interesting set, resulting in:

&gt; Memory failure: 0x9be3b4: Unknown page state
&gt; Memory failure: 0x9be3b4: recovery action for unknown page: Failed

Instead, save a copy of the head page's flags if this is a huge page,
this means if there are no relevant flags for this tail page, we use the
head pages flags instead.  This results in the me_huge_page() recovery
action being called:

&gt; Memory failure: 0x9b7969: recovery action for huge page: Delayed

For hugepages that have not yet been allocated, this allows the hugepage
to be dequeued.

Fixes: 524fca1e7356 ("HWPOISON: fix misjudgement of page_action() for errors on mlocked pages")

<title>mm/migrate: fix refcount handling when !hugepage_migration_supported()</title>

commit 30809f559a0d348c2dfd7ab05e9a451e2384962e upstream.

On failing to migrate a page, soft_offline_huge_page() performs the
necessary update to the hugepage ref-count.

But when !hugepage_migration_supported() , unmap_and_move_hugepage()
also decrements the page ref-count for the hugepage.  The combined
behaviour leaves the ref-count in an inconsistent state.

This leads to soft lockups when running the overcommitted hugepage test
from mce-tests suite.

Address this by changing the putback_active_hugepage() in
soft_offline_huge_page() to putback_movable_pages().

This only triggers on systems that enable memory failure handling
(ARCH_SUPPORTS_MEMORY_FAILURE) but not hugepage migration
(!ARCH_ENABLE_HUGEPAGE_MIGRATION).

I imagine this wasn't triggered as there aren't many systems running
this configuration.

commit d96b339f453997f2f08c52da3f41423be48c978f upstream.

I saw the following BUG_ON triggered in a testcase where a process calls
madvise(MADV_SOFT_OFFLINE) on thps, along with a background process that
calls migratepages command repeatedly (doing ping-pong among different
NUMA nodes) for the first process:

The root cause resides in get_any_page() which retries to get a refcount
of the page to be soft-offlined.  This function calls
put_hwpoison_page(), expecting that the target page is putback to LRU
list.  But it can be also freed to buddy.  So the second check need to
care about such case.

The root cause resides in get_any_page() which retries to get a refcount
of the page to be soft-offlined.  This function calls
put_hwpoison_page(), expecting that the target page is putback to LRU
list.  But it can be also freed to buddy.  So the second check need to
care about such case.

commit 4f32be677b124a49459e2603321c7a5605ceb9f8 upstream.

After trying to drain pages from pagevec/pageset, we try to get reference
count of the page again, however, the reference count of the page is not
reduced if the page is still not on LRU list.

Fix it by adding the put_page() to drop the page reference which is from
__get_any_page().

commit 602498f9aa43d4951eece3fd6ad95a6d0a78d537 upstream.

If multiple soft offline events hit one free page/hugepage concurrently,
soft_offline_page() can handle the free page/hugepage multiple times,
which makes num_poisoned_pages counter increased more than once.  This
patch fixes this wrong counting by checking TestSetPageHWPoison for normal
papes and by checking the return value of dequeue_hwpoisoned_huge_page()
for hugepages.

<title>mm/memory-failure: call shake_page() when error hits thp tail page</title>

commit 09789e5de18e4e442870b2d700831f5cb802eb05 upstream.

Currently memory_failure() calls shake_page() to sweep pages out from
pcplists only when the victim page is 4kB LRU page or thp head page.
But we should do this for a thp tail page too.

Consider that a memory error hits a thp tail page whose head page is on
a pcplist when memory_failure() runs.  Then, the current kernel skips
shake_pages() part, so hwpoison_user_mappings() returns without calling
split_huge_page() nor try_to_unmap() because PageLRU of the thp head is
still cleared due to the skip of shake_page().

As a result, me_huge_page() runs for the thp, which is broken behavior.

One effect is a leak of the thp.  And another is to fail to isolate the
memory error, so later access to the error address causes another MCE,
which kills the processes which used the thp.

This patch fixes this problem by calling shake_page() for thp tail case.

commit 9ab3b598d2dfbdb0153ffa7e4b1456bbff59a25d upstream.

A race condition starts to be visible in recent mmotm, where a PG_hwpoison
flag is set on a migration source page *before* it's back in buddy page
poo= l.

This is problematic because no page flag is supposed to be set when
freeing (see __free_one_page().) So the user-visible effect of this race
is that it could trigger the BUG_ON() when soft-offlining is called.

The root cause is that we call lru_add_drain_all() to make sure that the
page is in buddy, but that doesn't work because this function just
schedule= s a work item and doesn't wait its completion.
drain_all_pages() does drainin= g directly, so simply dropping
lru_add_drain_all() solves this problem.

<title>hwpoison: call action_result() in failure path of hwpoison_user_mappings()</title>

hwpoison_user_mappings() could fail for various reasons, so printk()s to
print out the reasons should be done in each failure check inside
hwpoison_user_mappings().

And currently we don't call action_result() when hwpoison_user_mappings()
fails, which is not consistent with other exit points of memory error
handler.  So this patch fixes these messaging problems.

A recent fix from Chen Yucong, commit 0bc1f8b0682c ("hwpoison: fix the
handling path of the victimized page frame that belong to non-LRU")
rejects going into unmapping operation for hugetlbfs/thp pages, which
results in failing error containing on such pages.  This patch fixes it.

With this patch, hwpoison functional tests in mce-test testsuite pass.
