From 276aeee1c5fc00df700f0782060beae126600472 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: yanghui Date: Wed, 8 Sep 2021 18:10:20 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] mm/mempolicy: fix a race between offset_il_node and mpol_rebind_task Servers happened below panic: Kernel version:5.4.56 BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: 0000000000002c48 RIP: 0010:__next_zones_zonelist+0x1d/0x40 Call Trace: __alloc_pages_nodemask+0x277/0x310 alloc_page_interleave+0x13/0x70 handle_mm_fault+0xf99/0x1390 __do_page_fault+0x288/0x500 do_page_fault+0x30/0x110 page_fault+0x3e/0x50 The reason for the panic is that MAX_NUMNODES is passed in the third parameter in __alloc_pages_nodemask(preferred_nid). So access to zonelist->zoneref->zone_idx in __next_zones_zonelist will cause a panic. In offset_il_node(), first_node() returns nid from pol->v.nodes, after this other threads may chang pol->v.nodes before next_node(). This race condition will let next_node return MAX_NUMNODES. So put pol->nodes in a local variable. The race condition is between offset_il_node and cpuset_change_task_nodemask: CPU0: CPU1: alloc_pages_vma() interleave_nid(pol,) offset_il_node(pol,) first_node(pol->v.nodes) cpuset_change_task_nodemask //nodes==0xc mpol_rebind_task mpol_rebind_policy mpol_rebind_nodemask(pol,nodes) //nodes==0x3 next_node(nid, pol->v.nodes)//return MAX_NUMNODES Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210906034658.48721-1-yanghui.def@bytedance.com Signed-off-by: yanghui Reviewed-by: Muchun Song Cc: Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds --- mm/mempolicy.c | 17 +++++++++++++---- 1 file changed, 13 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/mm/mempolicy.c b/mm/mempolicy.c index 5e90b3fb..b44f547 100644 --- a/mm/mempolicy.c +++ b/mm/mempolicy.c @@ -1979,17 +1979,26 @@ unsigned int mempolicy_slab_node(void) */ static unsigned offset_il_node(struct mempolicy *pol, unsigned long n) { - unsigned nnodes = nodes_weight(pol->nodes); - unsigned target; + nodemask_t nodemask = pol->nodes; + unsigned int target, nnodes; int i; int nid; + /* + * The barrier will stabilize the nodemask in a register or on + * the stack so that it will stop changing under the code. + * + * Between first_node() and next_node(), pol->nodes could be changed + * by other threads.
