Subject: [PATCH v2] x86/mm: don't apply va_align to hugetlb mappings on AMD F15h
Date: Tue, 22 Sep 2026 10:50:32 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260922085032.46144-1-l.wandrebeck@quelquesmots.fr> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260828135747.724789-1-l.wandrebeck@quelquesmots.fr>
get_align_mask() returns huge_page_mask_align() for hugetlbfs, but
get_align_bits() adds va_align.bits regardless, so vm_unmapped_area()
returns an address off the huge page boundary and
__unmap_hugepage_range() hits BUG_ON(start & ~huge_page_mask(h)) at
teardown.
Pass the file to get_align_bits() and skip the randomisation for
hugetlbfs. Reproduced on Carrizo and FX-8370E, both hstates.
Fixes: 1317a5e7f7b1 ("arch/x86: teach arch_get_unmapped_area_vmflags to handle hugetlb mappings")

v2: put the hugetlb case in get_align_bits() instead of guarding both call
sites, per Dave's suggestion to pass filp through. Masking rather than
returning early cannot clear the bits: va_align.mask is an L1I way
size, so it is a subset of huge_page_mask_align().
Re-tested on Carrizo, both hstates.
