Subject[PATCH 5.4 29/85] mm: mempolicy: fix potential pte_unmap_unlock pte error
Date
From: Shijie Luo <luoshijie1@huawei.com>

commit 3f08842098e842c51e3b97d0dcdebf810b32558e upstream.

When flags in queue_pages_pte_range don't have MPOL_MF_MOVE or
MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL bits, code breaks and passing origin pte - 1 to
pte_unmap_unlock seems like not a good idea.

queue_pages_pte_range can run in MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL mode which doesn't
migrate misplaced pages but returns with EIO when encountering such a
page. Since commit a7f40cfe3b7a ("mm: mempolicy: make mbind() return
-EIO when MPOL_MF_STRICT is specified") and early break on the first pte
in the range results in pte_unmap_unlock on an underflow pte. This can
lead to lockups later on when somebody tries to lock the pte resp.
page_table_lock again..

Fixes: a7f40cfe3b7a ("mm: mempolicy: make mbind() return -EIO when MPOL_MF_STRICT is specified")
