Subject: [PATCH] mm/khugepaged: check compound_order() in collapse_pte_mapped_thp()
Date: Wed, 21 Sep 2022 15:10:43 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220921221043.547580-1-zokeefe@google.com> (raw)
By the time we lock a page in collapse_pte_mapped_thp(), the page
mapped by the address pushed onto the slot's .pte_mapped_thp[] array
might have changed arbitrarily since we last looked at it. We
revalidate that the page is still the head of a compound page, but we
don't revalidate if the compound page is of order HPAGE_PMD_ORDER before
applying rmap and page table updates.
Since the kernel now supports large folios of arbitrary order, and since
replacing page's pte mappings by a pmd mapping only makes sense for
compound pages of order HPAGE_PMD_ORDER, revalidate that the compound
order is indeed of order HPAGE_PMD_ORDER before proceeding.

Andrew, could you please take this into mm-unstable as a prerequisite
patch for the "mm: add file/shmem support to MADV_COLLAPSE" series?
Thank you.
