------------------------------------------------------ From: David Hildenbrand david@redhat.com Subject: mm/hugetlb: fix uffd-wp handling for migration entries in hugetlb_change_protection() Date: Thu, 22 Dec 2022 21:55:11 +0100
We have to update the uffd-wp SWP PTE bit independent of the type of migration entry. Currently, if we're unlucky and we want to install/clear the uffd-wp bit just while we're migrating a read-only mapped hugetlb page, we would miss to set/clear the uffd-wp bit.
Further, if we're processing a readable-exclusive migration entry and neither want to set or clear the uffd-wp bit, we could currently end up losing the uffd-wp bit. Note that the same would hold for writable migrating entries, however, having a writable migration entry with the uffd-wp bit set would already mean that something went wrong.
Note that the change from !is_readable_migration_entry -> writable_migration_entry is harmless and actually cleaner, as raised by Miaohe Lin and discussed in [1].
