Subject: [RFC 3/3] fs: stable_page_flags(): use snapshot_page()
Date: Tue, 17 Jun 2025 10:27:10 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <eaa45a82f0392aaa1879529458a07c3743e75359.1750170418.git.luizcap@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1750170418.git.luizcap@redhat.com>

A race condition is possible in stable_page_flags() where user-space is
reading /proc/kpageflags concurrently to a folio split. This may lead to
oopses or BUG_ON()s being triggered.

To fix this, this commit uses snapshot_page() in stable_page_flags() so
that stable_page_flags() works with a stable page and folio snapshots
instead.

Note that stable_page_flags() makes use of some functions that require
the original page or folio pointer to work properly (eg.
is_free_budy_page() and folio_test_idle()). Since those functions can't
be used on the page snapshot, we replace their usage with flags that
were set by snapshot_page() for this purpose.
