madvise(MADV_SOFT_OFFLINE) often returns -EBUSY when calling soft offline
for hugepages with overcommitting enabled.  That was caused by the
suboptimal code in current soft-offline code.  See the following part:

    ret = migrate_pages(&amp;pagelist, new_page, NULL, MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL,
                            MIGRATE_SYNC, MR_MEMORY_FAILURE);
    if (ret) {
            ...
    } else {
            /*
             * We set PG_hwpoison only when the migration source hugepage
             * was successfully dissolved, because otherwise hwpoisoned
             * hugepage remains on free hugepage list, then userspace will
             * find it as SIGBUS by allocation failure. That's not expected
             * in soft-offlining.
             */
            ret = dissolve_free_huge_page(page);
            if (!ret) {
                    if (set_hwpoison_free_buddy_page(page))
                            num_poisoned_pages_inc();
            }
    }
    return ret;

Here dissolve_free_huge_page() returns -EBUSY if the migration source page
was freed into buddy in migrate_pages(), but even in that case we actually
has a chance that set_hwpoison_free_buddy_page() succeeds.  So that means
current code gives up offlining too early now.

dissolve_free_huge_page() checks that a given hugepage is suitable for
dissolving, where we should return success for !PageHuge() case because
the given hugepage is considered as already dissolved.

This change also affects other callers of dissolve_free_huge_page(), which
are cleaned up together.

The pass/fail of soft offline should be judged by checking whether the
raw error page was finally contained or not (i.e.  the result of
set_hwpoison_free_buddy_page()), but current code do not work like
that.  It might lead us to misjudge the test result when
set_hwpoison_free_buddy_page() fails.

Without this fix, there are cases where madvise(MADV_SOFT_OFFLINE) may
not offline the original page and will not return an error.

When soft_offline_in_use_page() runs on a thp tail page after pmd is

soft_offline_in_use_page() passed refcount and page lock from tail page
to head page, which is not needed because we can pass any subpage to
split_huge_page().

Naoya had fixed a similar issue in c3901e722b29 ("mm: hwpoison: fix thp
split handling in memory_failure()").  But he missed fixing soft
offline.

<title>mm: hwpoison: use do_send_sig_info() instead of force_sig()</title>

<id>6376360ecbe525a9c17b3d081dfd88ba3e4ed65b</id>
<content type='text'>
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.)

This reverts b43a9990055958e70347c56f90ea2ae32c67334c

The reverted commit caused issues with migration and poisoning of anon
huge pages.  The LTP move_pages12 test will cause an "unable to handle
kernel NULL pointer" BUG would occur with stack similar to:

  RIP: 0010:down_write+0x1b/0x40
  Call Trace:
    migrate_pages+0x81f/0xb90

    do_syscall_64+0x5b/0x180
    entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xa9

The purpose of the reverted patch was to fix some long existing races
with huge pmd sharing.  It used i_mmap_rwsem for this purpose with the
idea that this could also be used to address truncate/page fault races
with another patch.  Further analysis has determined that i_mmap_rwsem
can not be used to address all these hugetlbfs synchronization issues.
Therefore, revert this patch while working an another approach to the
underlying issues.

<title>hugetlbfs: use i_mmap_rwsem for more pmd sharing synchronization</title>

While looking at BUGs associated with invalid huge page map counts, it was
discovered and observed that a huge pte pointer could become 'invalid' and
point to another task's page table.  Consider the following:

A task takes a page fault on a shared hugetlbfs file and calls
huge_pte_alloc to get a ptep.  Suppose the returned ptep points to a
shared pmd.

Now, another task truncates the hugetlbfs file.  As part of truncation, it
unmaps everyone who has the file mapped.  If the range being truncated is
covered by a shared pmd, huge_pmd_unshare will be called.  For all but the
last user of the shared pmd, huge_pmd_unshare will clear the pud pointing
to the pmd.  If the task in the middle of the page fault is not the last
user, the ptep returned by huge_pte_alloc now points to another task's
page table or worse.  This leads to bad things such as incorrect page
map/reference counts or invalid memory references.

To fix, expand the use of i_mmap_rwsem as follows:

- i_mmap_rwsem is held in read mode whenever huge_pmd_share is called.
  huge_pmd_share is only called via huge_pte_alloc, so callers of
  huge_pte_alloc take i_mmap_rwsem before calling.  In addition, callers
  of huge_pte_alloc continue to hold the semaphore until finished with the
  ptep.

- i_mmap_rwsem is held in write mode whenever huge_pmd_unshare is
  called.

<title>dax: Fix unlock mismatch with updated API</title>

Internal to dax_unlock_mapping_entry(), dax_unlock_entry() is used to
store a replacement entry in the Xarray at the given xas-index with the
DAX_LOCKED bit clear. When called, dax_unlock_entry() expects the unlocked
value of the entry relative to the current Xarray state to be specified.

In most contexts dax_unlock_entry() is operating in the same scope as
the matched dax_lock_entry(). However, in the dax_unlock_mapping_entry()
case the implementation needs to recall the original entry. In the case
where the original entry is a 'pmd' entry it is possible that the pfn
performed to do the lookup is misaligned to the value retrieved in the
Xarray.

Change the api to return the unlock cookie from dax_lock_page() and pass
it to dax_unlock_page(). This fixes a bug where dax_unlock_page() was
assuming that the page was PMD-aligned if the entry was a PMD entry with
signatures like:

 "As it stands, memory_failure() gets thoroughly confused by dev_pagemap
  backed mappings. The recovery code has specific enabling for several
  possible page states and needs new enabling to handle poison in dax
  mappings.

  In order to support reliable reverse mapping of user space addresses:

   1/ Add new locking in the memory_failure() rmap path to prevent races
      that would typically be handled by the page lock.

   2/ Since dev_pagemap pages are hidden from the page allocator and the
      "compound page" accounting machinery, add a mechanism to determine
      the size of the mapping that encompasses a given poisoned pfn.

   3/ Given pmem errors can be repaired, change the speculatively
      accessed poison protection, mce_unmap_kpfn(), to be reversible and
      otherwise allow ongoing access from the kernel.

<title>mm: soft-offline: close the race against page allocation</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.tavy.me/linux-stable.git/commit/?id=d4ae9916ea2947341180d2b538f48875ff393a86'/>
<id>d4ae9916ea2947341180d2b538f48875ff393a86</id>
<content type='text'>
A process can be killed with SIGBUS(BUS_MCEERR_AR) when it tries to
allocate a page that was just freed on the way of soft-offline.  This is
undesirable because soft-offline (which is about corrected error) is
less aggressive than hard-offline (which is about uncorrected error),
and we can make soft-offline fail and keep using the page for good
reason like "system is busy."

Two main changes of this patch are:

- setting migrate type of the target page to MIGRATE_ISOLATE. As done
  in free_unref_page_commit(), this makes kernel bypass pcplist when
  freeing the page. So we can assume that the page is in freelist just
  after put_page() returns,

- setting PG_hwpoison on free page under zone-&gt;lock which protects
  freelists, so this allows us to avoid setting PG_hwpoison on a page
  that is decided to be allocated soon.

A process can be killed with SIGBUS(BUS_MCEERR_AR) when it tries to
allocate a page that was just freed on the way of soft-offline.  This is
undesirable because soft-offline (which is about corrected error) is
less aggressive than hard-offline (which is about uncorrected error),
and we can make soft-offline fail and keep using the page for good
reason like "system is busy."

Two main changes of this patch are:

- setting migrate type of the target page to MIGRATE_ISOLATE. As done
  in free_unref_page_commit(), this makes kernel bypass pcplist when
  freeing the page. So we can assume that the page is in freelist just
  after put_page() returns,

- setting PG_hwpoison on free page under zone-&gt;lock which protects
  freelists, so this allows us to avoid setting PG_hwpoison on a page
  that is decided to be allocated soon.
