`check_input_term` recursively calls itself with input from device side (e.g., uac_input_terminal_descriptor.bCSourceID) as argument (id). In `check_input_term`, if `check_input_term` is called with the same `id` argument as the caller, it triggers endless recursive call, resulting kernel space stack overflow. This patch fixes the bug by adding a bitmap to `struct mixer_build` to keep track of the checked ids and stop the execution if some id has been checked (similar to how parse_audio_unit handles unitid argument).

I -thought- I had fixed this entirely, but it looks like that I didn't test this thoroughly enough as we apparently still make one big mistake with nv50_msto_atomic_check() - we don't handle the following scenario: * CRTC #1 has n VCPI allocated to it, is attached to connector DP-4 which is attached to encoder #1. enabled=y active=n * CRTC #1 is changed from DP-4 to DP-5, causing: * DP-4 crtc=#1→NULL (VCPI n→0) * DP-5 crtc=NULL→#1 * CRTC #1 steals encoder #1 back from DP-4 and gives it to DP-5 * CRTC #1 maintains the same mode as before, just with a different connector * mode_changed=n connectors_changed=y (we _SHOULD_ do VCPI 0→n here, but don't) Once the above scenario is repeated once, we'll attempt freeing VCPI from the connector that we didn't allocate due to the connectors changing, but the mode staying the same. Sigh. Since nv50_msto_atomic_check() has broken a few times now, let's rethink things a bit to be more careful: limit both VCPI/PBN allocations to mode_changed || connectors_changed, since neither VCPI or PBN should ever need to change outside of routing and mode changes.

Pull rdma fixes from Doug Ledford: "Fairly small pull request for -rc3. I'm out of town the rest of this week, so I made sure to clean out as much as possible from patchworks in enough time for 0-day to chew through it (Yay! for 0-day being back online! :-)). Jason might send through any emergency stuff that could pop up, otherwise I'm back next week. The only real thing of note is the siw ABI change. Since we just merged siw *this* release, there are no prior kernel releases to maintain kernel ABI with. I told Bernard that if there is anything else about the siw ABI he thinks he might want to change before it goes set in stone, he should get it in ASAP. The siw module was around for several years outside the kernel tree, and it had to be revamped considerably for inclusion upstream, so we are making no attempts to be backward compatible with the out of tree version. Once 5.3 is actually released, we will have our baseline ABI to maintain. Summary: - Fix a memory registration release flow issue that was causing a WARN_ON (mlx5) - If the counters for a port aren't allocated, then we can't do operations on the non-existent counters (core) - Check the right variable for error code result (mlx5) - Fix a use after free issue (mlx5) - Fix an off by one memory leak (siw) - Actually return an error code on error (core) - Allow siw to be built on 32bit arches (siw, ABI change, but OK since siw was just merged this merge window and there is no prior released kernel to maintain compatibility with and we also updated the rdma-core user space package to match)" * tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rdma/rdma: RDMA/siw: Change CQ flags from 64->32 bits RDMA/core: Fix error code in stat_get_doit_qp() RDMA/siw: Fix a memory leak in siw_init_cpulist() IB/mlx5: Fix use-after-free error while accessing ev_file pointer IB/mlx5: Check the correct variable in error handling code RDMA/counter: Prevent QP counter binding if counters unsupported IB/mlx5: Fix implicit MR release flow

The `uac_mixer_unit_descriptor` shown as below is read from the device side. In `parse_audio_mixer_unit`, `baSourceID` field is accessed from index 0 to `bNrInPins` - 1, the current implementation assumes that descriptor is always valid (the length of descriptor is no shorter than 5 + `bNrInPins`). If a descriptor read from the device side is invalid, it may trigger out-of-bound memory access. ``` struct uac_mixer_unit_descriptor { __u8 bLength; __u8 bDescriptorType; __u8 bDescriptorSubtype; __u8 bUnitID; __u8 bNrInPins; __u8 baSourceID[]; } ``` This patch fixes the bug by add a sanity check on the length of the descriptor.

We have 3 new lenovo laptops which have conexant codec 0x14f11f86, these 3 laptops also have the noise issue when rebooting, after letting the codec enter D3 before rebooting or poweroff, the noise disappers. Instead of adding a new ID again in the reboot_notify(), let us make this function apply to all conexant codec. In theory make codec enter D3 before rebooting or poweroff is harmless, and I tested this change on a couple of other Lenovo laptops which have different conexant codecs, there is no side effect so far.

Li Wang discovered that LTP/move_page12 V2 sometimes triggers SIGBUS in the kernel-v5.2.3 testing. This is caused by a race between hugetlb page migration and page fault. If a hugetlb page can not be allocated to satisfy a page fault, the task is sent SIGBUS. This is normal hugetlbfs behavior. A hugetlb fault mutex exists to prevent two tasks from trying to instantiate the same page. This protects against the situation where there is only one hugetlb page, and both tasks would try to allocate. Without the mutex, one would fail and SIGBUS even though the other fault would be successful. There is a similar race between hugetlb page migration and fault. Migration code will allocate a page for the target of the migration. It will then unmap the original page from all page tables. It does this unmap by first clearing the pte and then writing a migration entry. The page table lock is held for the duration of this clear and write operation. However, the beginnings of the hugetlb page fault code optimistically checks the pte without taking the page table lock. If clear (as it can be during the migration unmap operation), a hugetlb page allocation is attempted to satisfy the fault. Note that the page which will eventually satisfy this fault was already allocated by the migration code. However, the allocation within the fault path could fail which would result in the task incorrectly being sent SIGBUS. Ideally, we could take the hugetlb fault mutex in the migration code when modifying the page tables. However, locks must be taken in the order of hugetlb fault mutex, page lock, page table lock. This would require significant rework of the migration code. Instead, the issue is addressed in the hugetlb fault code. After failing to allocate a huge page, take the page table lock and check for huge_pte_none before returning an error. This is the same check that must be made further in the code even if page allocation is successful.

Dave Chinner reported a problem pointing a finger at commit 1c30844d ("mm: reclaim small amounts of memory when an external fragmentation event occurs"). The report is extensive: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20190807091858.2857-1-david@fromorbit.com/ and it's worth recording the most relevant parts (colorful language and typos included). When running a simple, steady state 4kB file creation test to simulate extracting tarballs larger than memory full of small files into the filesystem, I noticed that once memory fills up the cache balance goes to hell. The workload is creating one dirty cached inode for every dirty page, both of which should require a single IO each to clean and reclaim, and creation of inodes is throttled by the rate at which dirty writeback runs at (via balance dirty pages). Hence the ingest rate of new cached inodes and page cache pages is identical and steady. As a result, memory reclaim should quickly find a steady balance between page cache and inode caches. The moment memory fills, the page cache is reclaimed at a much faster rate than the inode cache, and evidence suggests that the inode cache shrinker is not being called when large batches of pages are being reclaimed. In roughly the same time period that it takes to fill memory with 50% pages and 50% slab caches, memory reclaim reduces the page cache down to just dirty pages and slab caches fill the entirety of memory. The LRU is largely full of dirty pages, and we're getting spikes of random writeback from memory reclaim so it's all going to shit. Behaviour never recovers, the page cache remains pinned at just dirty pages, and nothing I could tune would make any difference. vfs_cache_pressure makes no difference - I would set it so high it should trim the entire inode caches in a single pass, yet it didn't do anything. It was clear from tracing and live telemetry that the shrinkers were pretty much not running except when there was absolutely no memory free at all, and then they did the minimum necessary to free memory to make progress. So I went looking at the code, trying to find places where pages got reclaimed and the shrinkers weren't called. There's only one - kswapd doing boosted reclaim as per commit 1c30844d ("mm: reclaim small amounts of memory when an external fragmentation event occurs"). The watermark boosting introduced by the commit is triggered in response to an allocation "fragmentation event". The boosting was not intended to target THP specifically and triggers even if THP is disabled. However, with Dave's perfectly reasonable workload, fragmentation events can be very common given the ratio of slab to page cache allocations so boosting remains active for long periods of time. As high-order allocations might use compaction and compaction cannot move slab pages the decision was made in the commit to special-case kswapd when watermarks are boosted -- kswapd avoids reclaiming slab as reclaiming slab does not directly help compaction. As Dave notes, this decision means that slab can be artificially protected for long periods of time and messes up the balance with slab and page caches. Removing the special casing can still indirectly help avoid fragmentation by avoiding fragmentation-causing events due to slab allocation as pages from a slab pageblock will have some slab objects freed. Furthermore, with the special casing, reclaim behaviour is unpredictable as kswapd sometimes examines slab and sometimes does not in a manner that is tricky to tune or analyse. This patch removes the special casing. The downside is that this is not a universal performance win. Some benchmarks that depend on the residency of data when rereading metadata may see a regression when slab reclaim is restored to its original behaviour. Similarly, some benchmarks that only read-once or write-once may perform better when page reclaim is too aggressive. The primary upside is that slab shrinker is less surprising (arguably more sane but that's a matter of opinion), behaves consistently regardless of the fragmentation state of the system and properly obeys VM sysctls. A fsmark benchmark configuration was constructed similar to what Dave reported and is codified by the mmtest configuration config-io-fsmark-small-file-stream. It was evaluated on a 1-socket machine to avoid dealing with NUMA-related issues and the timing of reclaim. The storage was an SSD Samsung Evo and a fresh trimmed XFS filesystem was used for the test data. This is not an exact replication of Dave's setup. The configuration scales its parameters depending on the memory size of the SUT to behave similarly across machines.

Note that an earlier version of the fsmark configuration showed a regression but that included more samples taken while memory was still filling. Note that the elapsed time is higher. Part of this is that the configuration included time to delete all the test files when the test completes -- the test automation handles the possibility of testing fsmark with multiple thread counts. Without the patch, many of these objects would be memory resident which is part of what the patch is addressing. There are other important observations that justify the patch. 1. With the vanilla kernel, the number of dirty pages in the system is very low for much of the test. With this patch, dirty pages is generally kept at 10% which matches vm.dirty_background_ratio which is normal expected historical behaviour. 2. With the vanilla kernel, the ratio of Slab/Pagecache is close to 0.95 for much of the test i.e. Slab is being left alone and dominating memory consumption. With the patch applied, the ratio varies between 0.35 and 0.45 with the bulk of the measured ratios roughly half way between those values. This is a different balance to what Dave reported but it was at least consistent. 3. Slabs are scanned throughout the entire test with the patch applied. The vanille kernel has periods with no scan activity and then relatively massive spikes. 4. Without the patch, kswapd scan rates are very variable. With the patch, the scan rates remain quite steady. 4. Overall vmstats are closer to normal expectations 5.3.0-rc3 5.3.0-rc3 vanilla shrinker-v1r1 Ops Direct pages scanned 99388.00 328410.00 Ops Kswapd pages scanned 45382917.00 33451026.00 Ops Kswapd pages reclaimed 30869570.00 25239655.00 Ops Direct pages reclaimed 74131.00 5830.00 Ops Kswapd efficiency % 68.02 75.45 Ops Kswapd velocity 5585.75 4002.25 Ops Page reclaim immediate 1179721.00 430927.00 Ops Slabs scanned 62367361.00 73581394.00 Ops Direct inode steals 2103.00 1002.00 Ops Kswapd inode steals 570180.00 5183206.00 o Vanilla kernel is hitting direct reclaim more frequently, not very much in absolute terms but the fact the patch reduces it is interesting o "Page reclaim immediate" in the vanilla kernel indicates dirty pages are being encountered at the tail of the LRU. This is generally bad and means in this case that the LRU is not long enough for dirty pages to be cleaned by the background flush in time. This is much reduced by the patch. o With the patch, kswapd is reclaiming 10 times more slab pages than with the vanilla kernel. This is indicative of the watermark boosting over-protecting slab A more complete set of tests were run that were part of the basis for introducing boosting and while there are some differences, they are well within tolerances. Bottom line, the special casing kswapd to avoid slab behaviour is unpredictable and can lead to abnormal results for normal workloads. This patch restores the expected behaviour that slab and page cache is balanced consistently for a workload with a steady allocation ratio of slab/pagecache pages. It also means that if there are workloads that favour the preservation of slab over pagecache that it can be tuned via vm.vfs_cache_pressure where as the vanilla kernel effectively ignores the parameter when boosting is active.

This reverts commit 2f0799a0 ("mm, thp: restore node-local hugepage allocations"). commit 2f0799a0 was rightfully applied to avoid the risk of a severe regression that was reported by the kernel test robot at the end of the merge window. Now we understood the regression was a false positive and was caused by a significant increase in fairness during a swap trashing benchmark. So it's safe to re-apply the fix and continue improving the code from there. The benchmark that reported the regression is very useful, but it provides a meaningful result only when there is no significant alteration in fairness during the workload. The removal of __GFP_THISNODE increased fairness. __GFP_THISNODE cannot be used in the generic page faults path for new memory allocations under the MPOL_DEFAULT mempolicy, or the allocation behavior significantly deviates from what the MPOL_DEFAULT semantics are supposed to be for THP and 4k allocations alike. Setting THP defrag to "always" or using MADV_HUGEPAGE (with THP defrag set to "madvise") has never meant to provide an implicit MPOL_BIND on the "current" node the task is running on, causing swap storms and providing a much more aggressive behavior than even zone_reclaim_node = 3. Any workload who could have benefited from __GFP_THISNODE has now to enable zone_reclaim_mode=1||2||3. __GFP_THISNODE implicitly provided the zone_reclaim_mode behavior, but it only did so if THP was enabled: if THP was disabled, there would have been no chance to get any 4k page from the current node if the current node was full of pagecache, which further shows how this __GFP_THISNODE was misplaced in MADV_HUGEPAGE. MADV_HUGEPAGE has never been intended to provide any zone_reclaim_mode semantics, in fact the two are orthogonal, zone_reclaim_mode = 1|2|3 must work exactly the same with MADV_HUGEPAGE set or not. The performance characteristic of memory depends on the hardware details. The numbers below are obtained on Naples/EPYC architecture and the N/A projection extends them to show what we should aim for in the future as a good THP NUMA locality default. The benchmark used exercises random memory seeks (note: the cost of the page faults is not part of the measurement). D0 THP | D0 4k | D1 THP | D1 4k | D2 THP | D2 4k | D3 THP | D3 4k | ... 0% | +43% | +45% | +106% | +131% | +224% | N/A | N/A D0 means distance zero (i.e. local memory), D1 means distance one (i.e. intra socket memory), D2 means distance two (i.e. inter socket memory), etc... For the guest physical memory allocated by qemu and for guest mode kernel the performance characteristic of RAM is more complex and an ideal default could be: D0 THP | D1 THP | D0 4k | D2 THP | D1 4k | D3 THP | D2 4k | D3 4k | ... 0% | +58% | +101% | N/A | +222% | N/A | N/A | N/A NOTE: the N/A are projections and haven't been measured yet, the measurement in this case is done on a 1950x with only two NUMA nodes. The THP case here means THP was used both in the host and in the guest. After applying this commit the THP NUMA locality order that we'll get out of MADV_HUGEPAGE is this: D0 THP | D1 THP | D2 THP | D3 THP | ... | D0 4k | D1 4k | D2 4k | D3 4k | ... Before this commit it was: D0 THP | D0 4k | D1 4k | D2 4k | D3 4k | ... Even if we ignore the breakage of large workloads that can't fit in a single node that the __GFP_THISNODE implicit "current node" mbind caused, the THP NUMA locality order provided by __GFP_THISNODE was still not the one we shall aim for in the long term (i.e. the first one at the top). After this commit is applied, we can introduce a new allocator multi order API and to replace those two alloc_pages_vmas calls in the page fault path, with a single multi order call: unsigned int order = (1 << HPAGE_PMD_ORDER) | (1 << 0); page = alloc_pages_multi_order(..., &order); if (!page) goto out; if (!(order & (1 << 0))) { VM_WARN_ON(order != 1 << HPAGE_PMD_ORDER); /* THP fault */ } else { VM_WARN_ON(order != 1 << 0); /* 4k fallback */ } The page allocator logic has to be altered so that when it fails on any zone with order 9, it has to try again with a order 0 before falling back to the next zone in the zonelist. After that we need to do more measurements and evaluate if adding an opt-in feature for guest mode is worth it, to swap "DN 4k | DN+1 THP" with "DN+1 THP | DN 4k" at every NUMA distance crossing.

Patch series "reapply: relax __GFP_THISNODE for MADV_HUGEPAGE mappings". The fixes for what was originally reported as "pathological THP behavior" we rightfully reverted to be sure not to introduced regressions at end of a merge window after a severe regression report from the kernel bot. We can safely re-apply them now that we had time to analyze the problem. The mm process worked fine, because the good fixes were eventually committed upstream without excessive delay. The regression reported by the kernel bot however forced us to revert the good fixes to be sure not to introduce regressions and to give us the time to analyze the issue further. The silver lining is that this extra time allowed to think more at this issue and also plan for a future direction to improve things further in terms of THP NUMA locality. This patch (of 2): This reverts commit 356ff8a9 ("Revert "mm, thp: consolidate THP gfp handling into alloc_hugepage_direct_gfpmask"). So it reapplies 89c83fb5 ("mm, thp: consolidate THP gfp handling into alloc_hugepage_direct_gfpmask"). Consolidation of the THP allocation flags at the same place was meant to be a clean up to easier handle otherwise scattered code which is imposing a maintenance burden. There were no real problems observed with the gfp mask consolidation but the reversion was rushed through without a larger consensus regardless. This patch brings the consolidation back because this should make the long term maintainability easier as well as it should allow future changes to be less error prone.

If you use lseek or similar (e.g. pread) to access a location in a seq_file file that is within a record, rather than at a record boundary, then the first read will return the remainder of the record, and the second read will return the whole of that same record (instead of the next record). When seeking to a record boundary, the next record is correctly returned. This bug was introduced by a recent patch (identified below). Before that patch, seq_read() would increment m->index when the last of the buffer was returned (m->count == 0). After that patch, we rely on ->next to increment m->index after filling the buffer - but there was one place where that didn't happen.

Memcg counters for shadow nodes are broken because the memcg pointer is obtained in a wrong way. The following approach is used: virt_to_page(xa_node)->mem_cgroup Since commit 4d96ba35 ("mm: memcg/slab: stop setting page->mem_cgroup pointer for slab pages") page->mem_cgroup pointer isn't set for slab pages, so memcg_from_slab_page() should be used instead. Also I doubt that it ever worked correctly: virt_to_head_page() should be used instead of virt_to_page(). Otherwise objects residing on tail pages are not accounted, because only the head page contains a valid mem_cgroup pointer. That was a case since the introduction of these counters by the commit 68d48e6a ("mm: workingset: add vmstat counter for shadow nodes").

Currently, when checking to see if accessing n bytes starting at address "ptr" will cause a wraparound in the memory addresses, the check in check_bogus_address() adds an extra byte, which is incorrect, as the range of addresses that will be accessed is [ptr, ptr + (n - 1)]. This can lead to incorrectly detecting a wraparound in the memory address, when trying to read 4 KB from memory that is mapped to the the last possible page in the virtual address space, when in fact, accessing that range of memory would not cause a wraparound to occur. Use the memory range that will actually be accessed when considering if accessing a certain amount of bytes will cause the memory address to wrap around.

Recent changes to the vmalloc code by commit 68ad4a33 ("mm/vmalloc.c: keep track of free blocks for vmap allocation") can cause spurious percpu allocation failures. These, in turn, can result in panic()s in the slub code. One such possible panic was reported by Dave Hansen in following link https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/6/19/939. Another related panic observed is, RIP: 0033:0x7f46f7441b9b Call Trace: dump_stack+0x61/0x80 pcpu_alloc.cold.30+0x22/0x4f mem_cgroup_css_alloc+0x110/0x650 cgroup_apply_control_enable+0x133/0x330 cgroup_mkdir+0x41b/0x500 kernfs_iop_mkdir+0x5a/0x90 vfs_mkdir+0x102/0x1b0 do_mkdirat+0x7d/0xf0 do_syscall_64+0x5b/0x180 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xa9 VMALLOC memory manager divides the entire VMALLOC space (VMALLOC_START to VMALLOC_END) into multiple VM areas (struct vm_areas), and it mainly uses two lists (vmap_area_list & free_vmap_area_list) to track the used and free VM areas in VMALLOC space. And pcpu_get_vm_areas(offsets[], sizes[], nr_vms, align) function is used for allocating congruent VM areas for percpu memory allocator. In order to not conflict with VMALLOC users, pcpu_get_vm_areas allocates VM areas near the end of the VMALLOC space. So the search for free vm_area for the given requirement starts near VMALLOC_END and moves upwards towards VMALLOC_START. Prior to commit 68ad4a33, the search for free vm_area in pcpu_get_vm_areas() involves following two main steps. Step 1: Find a aligned "base" adress near VMALLOC_END. va = free vm area near VMALLOC_END Step 2: Loop through number of requested vm_areas and check, Step 2.1: if (base < VMALLOC_START) 1. fail with error Step 2.2: // end is offsets[area] + sizes[area] if (base + end > va->vm_end) 1. Move the base downwards and repeat Step 2 Step 2.3: if (base + start < va->vm_start) 1. Move to previous free vm_area node, find aligned base address and repeat Step 2 But Commit 68ad4a33 removed Step 2.2 and modified Step 2.3 as below: Step 2.3: if (base + start < va->vm_start || base + end > va->vm_end) 1. Move to previous free vm_area node, find aligned base address and repeat Step 2 Above change is the root cause of spurious percpu memory allocation failures. For example, consider a case where a relatively large vm_area (~ 30 TB) was ignored in free vm_area search because it did not pass the base + end < vm->vm_end boundary check. Ignoring such large free vm_area's would lead to not finding free vm_area within boundary of VMALLOC_start to VMALLOC_END which in turn leads to allocation failures. So modify the search algorithm to include Step 2.2.

The constraint from the zpool use of z3fold_destroy_pool() is there are no outstanding handles to memory (so no active allocations), but it is possible for there to be outstanding work on either of the two wqs in the pool.

When calling mbind(), it would scan the vma to queue the pages for migration to the new node. It would split any huge page since 4.9 doesn't support THP migration, however, the packet tx ring compound pages are not THP and even not movable. So, the above bug is triggered. However, the later kernel is not hit by this issue due to commit d44d363f ("mm: don't assume anonymous pages have SwapBacked flag"), which just removes the PageSwapBacked check for a different reason. But, there is a deeper issue. According to the semantic of mbind(), it should return -EIO if MPOL_MF_MOVE or MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL was specified and MPOL_MF_STRICT was also specified, but the kernel was unable to move all existing pages in the range. The tx ring of the packet socket is definitely not movable, however, mbind() returns success for this case. Although the most socket file associates with non-movable pages, but XDP may have movable pages from gup. So, it sounds not fine to just check the underlying file type of vma in vma_migratable(). Change migrate_page_add() to check if the page is movable or not, if it is unmovable, just return -EIO. But do not abort pte walk immediately, since there may be pages off LRU temporarily. We should migrate other pages if MPOL_MF_MOVE* is specified. Set has_unmovable flag if some paged could not be not moved, then return -EIO for mbind() eventually. With this change the above test would return -EIO as expected.

When both MPOL_MF_MOVE* and MPOL_MF_STRICT was specified, mbind() should try best to migrate misplaced pages, if some of the pages could not be migrated, then return -EIO. There are three different sub-cases: 1. vma is not migratable 2. vma is migratable, but there are unmovable pages 3. vma is migratable, pages are movable, but migrate_pages() fails If #1 happens, kernel would just abort immediately, then return -EIO, after a7f40cfe ("mm: mempolicy: make mbind() return -EIO when MPOL_MF_STRICT is specified"). If #3 happens, kernel would set policy and migrate pages with best-effort, but won't rollback the migrated pages and reset the policy back. Before that commit, they behaves in the same way. It'd better to keep their behavior consistent. But, rolling back the migrated pages and resetting the policy back sounds not feasible, so just make #1 behave as same as #3. Userspace will know that not everything was successfully migrated (via -EIO), and can take whatever steps it deems necessary - attempt rollback, determine which exact page(s) are violating the policy, etc. Make queue_pages_range() return 1 to indicate there are unmovable pages or vma is not migratable. The #2 is not handled correctly in the current kernel, the following patch will fix it.

When migrating an anonymous private page to a ZONE_DEVICE private page, the source page->mapping and page->index fields are copied to the destination ZONE_DEVICE struct page and the page_mapcount() is increased. This is so rmap_walk() can be used to unmap and migrate the page back to system memory. However, try_to_unmap_one() computes the subpage pointer from a swap pte which computes an invalid page pointer and a kernel panic results such as: BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffea1fffffffc8 Currently, only single pages can be migrated to device private memory so no subpage computation is needed and it can be set to "page".

When a ZONE_DEVICE private page is freed, the page->mapping field can be set. If this page is reused as an anonymous page, the previous value can prevent the page from being inserted into the CPU's anon rmap table. For example, when migrating a pte_none() page to device memory: migrate_vma(ops, vma, start, end, src, dst, private) migrate_vma_collect() src[] = MIGRATE_PFN_MIGRATE migrate_vma_prepare() /* no page to lock or isolate so OK */ migrate_vma_unmap() /* no page to unmap so OK */ ops->alloc_and_copy() /* driver allocates ZONE_DEVICE page for dst[] */ migrate_vma_pages() migrate_vma_insert_page() page_add_new_anon_rmap() __page_set_anon_rmap() /* This check sees the page's stale mapping field */ if (PageAnon(page)) return /* page->mapping is not updated */ The result is that the migration appears to succeed but a subsequent CPU fault will be unable to migrate the page back to system memory or worse. Clear the page->mapping field when freeing the ZONE_DEVICE page so stale pointer data doesn't affect future page use.
