Subject: [PATCH] mm/swapfile: skip HugeTLB pages for unuse_vma
Date: Tue, 15 Oct 2024 09:45:21 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20241015014521.570237-1-liushixin2@huawei.com> (raw)
I got a bad pud error and lost a 1GB HugeTLB when calling swapoff.
The problem can be reproduced by the following steps:
1. Allocate an anonymous 1GB HugeTLB and some other anonymous memory.
2. Swapout the above anonymous memory.
3. run swapoff and we will get a bad pud error in kernel message:
mm/pgtable-generic.c:42: bad pud 00000000743d215d(84000001400000e7)
We can tell that pud_clear_bad is called by pud_none_or_clear_bad
in unuse_pud_range() by ftrace. And therefore the HugeTLB pages will
never be freed because we lost it from page table. We can skip
HugeTLB pages for unuse_vma to fix it.
Fixes: 0fe6e20b9c4c ("hugetlb, rmap: add reverse mapping for hugepage")
