From 49c87f7677746f3c5bd16c81b23700bb6b88bfd4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ryan Roberts ryan.roberts@arm.com Date: Wed, 26 Feb 2025 12:06:52 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] arm64: hugetlb: Fix huge_ptep_get_and_clear() for non-present ptes
arm64 supports multiple huge_pte sizes. Some of the sizes are covered by a single pte entry at a particular level (PMD_SIZE, PUD_SIZE), and some are covered by multiple ptes at a particular level (CONT_PTE_SIZE, CONT_PMD_SIZE). So the function has to figure out the size from the huge_pte pointer. This was previously done by walking the pgtable to determine the level and by using the PTE_CONT bit to determine the number of ptes at the level.
But the PTE_CONT bit is only valid when the pte is present. For non-present pte values (e.g. markers, migration entries), the previous implementation was therefore erroneously determining the size. There is at least one known caller in core-mm, move_huge_pte(), which may call huge_ptep_get_and_clear() for a non-present pte. So we must be robust to this case. Additionally the "regular" ptep_get_and_clear() is robust to being called for non-present ptes so it makes sense to follow the behavior.
Fix this by using the new sz parameter which is now provided to the function. Additionally when clearing each pte in a contig range, don't gather the access and dirty bits if the pte is not present.
An alternative approach that would not require API changes would be to store the PTE_CONT bit in a spare bit in the swap entry pte for the non-present case. But it felt cleaner to follow other APIs' lead and just pass in the size.
As an aside, PTE_CONT is bit 52, which corresponds to bit 40 in the swap entry offset field (layout of non-present pte). Since hugetlb is never swapped to disk, this field will only be populated for markers, which always set this bit to 0 and hwpoison swap entries, which set the offset field to a PFN; So it would only ever be 1 for a 52-bit PVA system where memory in that high half was poisoned (I think!). So in practice, this bit would almost always be zero for non-present ptes and we would only clear the first entry if it was actually a contiguous block. That's probably a less severe symptom than if it was always interpreted as 1 and cleared out potentially-present neighboring PTEs.
