Subject[PATCH AUTOSEL 5.4 227/330] mm/swapfile: fix data races in try_to_unuse()
Date
From: Qian Cai <cai@lca.pw>

[ Upstream commit 218209487c3da2f6d861b236c11226b6eca7b7b7 ]

si->inuse_pages could be accessed concurrently as noticed by KCSAN,

write to 0xffff98b00ebd04dc of 4 bytes by task 82262 on cpu 92:
swap_range_free+0xbe/0x230
swap_range_free at mm/swapfile.c:719
swapcache_free_entries+0x1be/0x250
free_swap_slot+0x1c8/0x220
__swap_entry_free.constprop.19+0xa3/0xb0
free_swap_and_cache+0x53/0xa0
unmap_page_range+0x7e0/0x1ce0
unmap_single_vma+0xcd/0x170
unmap_vmas+0x18b/0x220
exit_mmap+0xee/0x220
mmput+0xe7/0x240
do_exit+0x598/0xfd0
do_group_exit+0x8b/0x180
get_signal+0x293/0x13d0
do_signal+0x37/0x5d0
prepare_exit_to_usermode+0x1b7/0x2c0
ret_from_intr+0x32/0x42

read to 0xffff98b00ebd04dc of 4 bytes by task 82499 on cpu 46:
try_to_unuse+0x86b/0xc80
try_to_unuse at mm/swapfile.c:2185
__x64_sys_swapoff+0x372/0xd40
do_syscall_64+0x91/0xb05
entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x49/0xbe

The plain reads in try_to_unuse() are outside si->lock critical section
which result in data races that could be dangerous to be used in a loop.
Fix them by adding READ_ONCE().
