[PATCH v2 0/5] hwpoison: fixes on v4.2-rc4

[Naoya Horiguchi]

This is v2 of hwpoison fix series for v4.2.
I reflected the feedback for v1, and tried another solution for "reuse just
after soft-offline" problem (see patch 5/5.)

General description (mostly identical to v1)
===================

Recently I addressed a few of hwpoison race problems and the patches are merged
on v4.2-rc1. It made progress, but unfortunately some problems still remain due
to less coverage of my testing. So I'm trying to fix or avoid them in this series.

One point I'm expecting to discuss is that patch 4/5 changes the page flag set
to be checked on free time. In current behavior, __PG_HWPOISON is not supposed
to be set when the page is freed. I think that there is no strong reason for this
behavior, and it causes a problem hard to fix only in error handler side (because
__PG_HWPOISON could be set at arbitrary timing.) So I suggest to change it.

Test
====

With this patchset, hwpoison stress testing in official mce-test testsuite
(which previously failed) passes.

Thanks,
Naoya Horiguchi

[PATCH v2 1/5] mm/memory-failure: unlock_page before put_page

[Naoya Horiguchi]

In "just unpoisoned" path, we do put_page and then unlock_page, which is a
wrong order and causes "freeing locked page" bug. So let's fix it.

Looks like you could do the unlock_page() before either the printk or 
atomic_long_sub(), but probably not important.

[PATCH v2 3/5] mm/memory-failure: give up error handling for non-tail-refcounted thp

[Naoya Horiguchi]

"non anonymous thp" case is still racy with freeing thp, which causes panic
due to put_page() for refcount-0 page. It seems that closing up this race
might be hard (and/or not worth doing,) so let's give up the error handling
for this case.

[PATCH v2 4/5] mm: check __PG_HWPOISON separately from PAGE_FLAGS_CHECK_AT_*

[Naoya Horiguchi]

The race condition addressed in commit add05cecef80 ("mm: soft-offline: don't
free target page in successful page migration") was not closed completely,
because that can happen not only for soft-offline, but also for hard-offline.
Consider that a slab page is about to be freed into buddy pool, and then an
uncorrected memory error hits the page just after entering __free_one_page(),
then VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(page->flags & PAGE_FLAGS_CHECK_AT_PREP) is triggered,
despite the fact that it's not necessary because the data on the affected
page is not consumed.

To solve it, this patch drops __PG_HWPOISON from page flag checks at
allocation/free time. I think it's justified because __PG_HWPOISON flags is
defined to prevent the page from being reused, and setting it outside the
page's alloc-free cycle is a designed behavior (not a bug.)

For recent months, I was annoyed about BUG_ON when soft-offlined page remains
on lru cache list for a while, which is avoided by calling put_page() instead
of putback_lru_page() in page migration's success path. This means that this
patch reverts a major change from commit add05cecef80 about the new refcounting
rule of soft-offlined pages, so "reuse window" revives. This will be closed
by a subsequent patch.

[PATCH v2 2/5] mm/memory-failure: fix race in counting num_poisoned_pages

[Naoya Horiguchi]

When memory_failure() is called on a page which are just freed after page
migration from soft offlining, the counter num_poisoned_pages is raised twice.
So let's fix it with using TestSetPageHWPoison.

[PATCH v2 5/5] mm/memory-failure: set PageHWPoison before migrate_pages()

[Naoya Horiguchi]

Now page freeing code doesn't consider PageHWPoison as a bad page, so by
setting it before completing the page containment, we can prevent the error
page from being reused just after successful page migration.

I added TTU_IGNORE_HWPOISON for try_to_unmap() to make sure that the page
table entry is transformed into migration entry, not to hwpoison entry.
