Subject: [PATCH 3/3] mm/hugetlb: use get_page_unless_zero() in hugetlb_fault()
Date: Mon, 28 Jul 2014 14:08:31 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1406570911-28133-3-git-send-email-n-horiguchi@ah.jp.nec.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1406570911-28133-1-git-send-email-n-horiguchi@ah.jp.nec.com>

After fixing the race in follow_page(FOLL_GET) for hugepages, I start to
observe the BUG of "get_page() on refcount 0 page" in hugetlb_fault() in
the same test.

I'm not exactly sure about how this race is triggered, but hugetlb_fault()
calls pte_page() and get_page() outside page table lock, so it's not safe.
This patch checks the refcount of the gotten page, and aborts the page fault
if the refcount is 0, expecting to retry.
