From 2e6053fea379806269c4f7f5e36b523c9c0fb35c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jinjiang Tu tujinjiang@huawei.com Date: Fri, 15 Aug 2025 15:32:09 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] mm/memory-failure: fix infinite UCE for VM_PFNMAP pfn
When memory_failure() is called for a already hwpoisoned pfn, kill_accessing_process() will be called to kill current task. However, if the vma of the accessing vaddr is VM_PFNMAP, walk_page_range() will skip the vma in walk_page_test() and return 0.
Before commit aaf99ac2ceb7 ("mm/hwpoison: do not send SIGBUS to processes with recovered clean pages"), kill_accessing_process() will return EFAULT. For x86, the current task will be killed in kill_me_maybe().
However, after this commit, kill_accessing_process() simplies return 0, that means UCE is handled properly, but it doesn't actually. In such case, the user task will trigger UCE infinitely.
To fix it, add .test_walk callback for hwpoison_walk_ops to scan all vmas.
