Subject[PATCH v3] mm/hugetlb: fix races when looking up a CONT-PTE/PMD size hugetlb page
Date
On some architectures (like ARM64), it can support CONT-PTE/PMD size
hugetlb, which means it can support not only PMD/PUD size hugetlb
(2M and 1G), but also CONT-PTE/PMD size(64K and 32M) if a 4K page size
specified.

So when looking up a CONT-PTE size hugetlb page by follow_page(), it
will use pte_offset_map_lock() to get the pte entry lock for the CONT-PTE
size hugetlb in follow_page_pte(). However this pte entry lock is incorrect
for the CONT-PTE size hugetlb, since we should use huge_pte_lock() to
get the correct lock, which is mm->page_table_lock.

That means the pte entry of the CONT-PTE size hugetlb under current
pte lock is unstable in follow_page_pte(), we can continue to migrate
or poison the pte entry of the CONT-PTE size hugetlb, which can cause
some potential race issues, even though they are under the 'pte lock'.

For example, suppose thread A is trying to look up a CONT-PTE size
hugetlb page by move_pages() syscall under the lock, however antoher
thread B can migrate the CONT-PTE hugetlb page at the same time, which
will cause thread A to get an incorrect page, if thread A also wants to
do page migration, then data inconsistency error occurs.

Moreover we have the same issue for CONT-PMD size hugetlb in
follow_huge_pmd().

To fix above issues, rename the follow_huge_pmd() as follow_huge_pmd_pte()
to handle PMD and PTE level size hugetlb, which uses huge_pte_lock() to
get the correct pte entry lock to make the pte entry stable.

Changes from v2:
- Combine PMD and PTE level hugetlb handling into one function.
- Drop unnecessary patches.
- Update the commit message.

Mike, please fold this patch into your series. Thanks.
