mm/memory-failure: fix deadlock when hugetlb_optimize_vmemmap is enabled
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
When I did hard offline test with hugetlb pages, below deadlock occurs:

======================================================
WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected
6.8.0-11409-gf6cef5f8c37f #1 Not tainted
------------------------------------------------------
bash/46904 is trying to acquire lock:
ffffffffabe68910 (cpu_hotplug_lock){++++}-{0:0}, at: static_key_slow_dec+0x16/0x60

but task is already holding lock:
ffffffffabf92ea8 (pcp_batch_high_lock){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: zone_pcp_disable+0x16/0x40

which lock already depends on the new lock.

the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:

other info that might help us debug this:

 Possible unsafe locking scenario:

In short, below scene breaks the lock dependency chain:

 memory_failure
  __page_handle_poison
   zone_pcp_disable -- lock(pcp_batch_high_lock)
   dissolve_free_huge_page
    __hugetlb_vmemmap_restore_folio
     static_key_slow_dec
      cpus_read_lock -- rlock(cpu_hotplug_lock)

Fix this by calling drain_all_pages() instead.

This issue won't occur until commit a6b4085 ("mm: hugetlb: replace
hugetlb_free_vmemmap_enabled with a static_key").  As it introduced
rlock(cpu_hotplug_lock) in dissolve_free_huge_page() code path while
lock(pcp_batch_high_lock) is already in the __page_handle_poison().
