This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled mm: try_to_unmap_cluster() should lock_page() before mlocking to the linux-3.11.y-queue branch of the 3.11.y.z extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.11.y-queue If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.11.y.z tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Luis ------ From 8726be29b780103dcbed8350612ebad0fdbd4c71 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz> Date: Mon, 7 Apr 2014 15:37:50 -0700 Subject: mm: try_to_unmap_cluster() should lock_page() before mlocking commit 57e68e9cd65b4b8eb4045a1e0d0746458502554c upstream. A BUG_ON(!PageLocked) was triggered in mlock_vma_page() by Sasha Levin fuzzing with trinity. The call site try_to_unmap_cluster() does not lock the pages other than its check_page parameter (which is already locked). The BUG_ON in mlock_vma_page() is not documented and its purpose is somewhat unclear, but apparently it serializes against page migration, which could otherwise fail to transfer the PG_mlocked flag. This would not be fatal, as the page would be eventually encountered again, but NR_MLOCK accounting would become distorted nevertheless. This patch adds a comment to the BUG_ON in mlock_vma_page() and munlock_vma_page() to that effect. The call site try_to_unmap_cluster() is fixed so that for page != check_page, trylock_page() is attempted (to avoid possible deadlocks as we already have check_page locked) and mlock_vma_page() is performed only upon success. If the page lock cannot be obtained, the page is left without PG_mlocked, which is again not a problem in the whole unevictable memory design.
