Subject: [PATCH V2 0/3] mm/hugetlb: fix mremap bugs
Date: Mon, 19 Oct 2026 19:30:31 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261019113034.97690-1-lizhe.67@bytedance.com> (raw)
This series fixes a few hugetlb mremap bugs.
Patch 1 fixes the return type of move_hugetlb_page_tables(), so large
hugetlb moves cannot be truncated when reported back to the generic
mremap code.
Patch 2 disables hugetlb PMD sharing for UFFD missing mode, because
UFFDIO_POISON can install PTE markers that must not become shared PMD
page-table state.
Patch 3 fixes the recursive i_mmap_rwsem deadlock in the hugetlb mremap
path by avoiding the destination PMD sharing allocation path while the
mapping lock is already held for write.
David Hildenbrand (Arm) (1):
mm/hugetlb: disable PMD sharing for UFFD missing mode
Li Zhe (2):
mm/hugetlb: fix mremap move length truncation
mm/hugetlb: fix mremap deadlock when PMD sharing is possible

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260930064308.58159-1-lizhe.67@bytedance.com/
ChangeLogs:
v1->v2:
- Add a fix for the newly discovered move_hugetlb_page_tables()
return type issue.
- Disable hugetlb PMD sharing for UFFD missing mode.
- Rework the mremap deadlock fix to zap the source range and let the
destination fault path populate or share the PMD lazily, as suggested
by David.
