Subject: [PATCH] mm: migration: fix migration of huge PMD shared pages

The page migration code employs try_to_unmap() to try and unmap the source
page.  This is accomplished by using rmap_walk to find all vmas where the
page is mapped.  This search stops when page mapcount is zero.  For shared
PMD huge pages, the page map count is always 1 no matter the number of
mappings.  Shared mappings are tracked via the reference count of the PMD
page.  Therefore, try_to_unmap stops prematurely and does not completely
unmap all mappings of the source page.

This problem can result is data corruption as writes to the original
source page can happen after contents of the page are copied to the target
page.  Hence, data is lost.

This problem was originally seen as DB corruption of shared global areas
after a huge page was soft offlined due to ECC memory errors.  DB
developers noticed they could reproduce the issue by (hotplug) offlining
memory used to back huge pages.  A simple testcase can reproduce the
problem by creating a shared PMD mapping (note that this must be at least
PUD_SIZE in size and PUD_SIZE aligned (1GB on x86)), and using
migrate_pages() to migrate process pages between nodes while continually
writing to the huge pages being migrated.

To fix, have the try_to_unmap_one routine check for huge PMD sharing by
calling huge_pmd_unshare for hugetlbfs huge pages.  If it is a shared
mapping it will be 'unshared' which removes the page table entry and drops
the reference on the PMD page.  After this, flush caches and TLB.

mmu notifiers are called before locking page tables, but we can not be
sure of PMD sharing until page tables are locked.  Therefore, check for
the possibility of PMD sharing before locking so that notifiers can
prepare for the worst possible case.

mm: migration: fix migration of huge PMD shared pages

commit 017b1660df89f5fb4bfe66c34e35f7d2031100c7 upstream

The page migration code employs try_to_unmap() to try and unmap the
source page.  This is accomplished by using rmap_walk to find all
vmas where the page is mapped.  This search stops when page mapcount
is zero.  For shared PMD huge pages, the page map count is always 1
no matter the number of mappings.  Shared mappings are tracked via
the reference count of the PMD page.  Therefore, try_to_unmap stops
prematurely and does not completely unmap all mappings of the source
page.

This problem can result is data corruption as writes to the original
source page can happen after contents of the page are copied to the
target page.  Hence, data is lost.

This problem was originally seen as DB corruption of shared global
areas after a huge page was soft offlined due to ECC memory errors.
DB developers noticed they could reproduce the issue by (hotplug)
offlining memory used to back huge pages.  A simple testcase can
reproduce the problem by creating a shared PMD mapping (note that
this must be at least PUD_SIZE in size and PUD_SIZE aligned (1GB on
x86)), and using migrate_pages() to migrate process pages between
nodes while continually writing to the huge pages being migrated.

To fix, have the try_to_unmap_one routine check for huge PMD sharing
by calling huge_pmd_unshare for hugetlbfs huge pages.  If it is a
shared mapping it will be 'unshared' which removes the page table
entry and drops the reference on the PMD page.  After this, flush
caches and TLB.

mmu notifiers are called before locking page tables, but we can not
be sure of PMD sharing until page tables are locked.  Therefore,
check for the possibility of PMD sharing before locking so that
notifiers can prepare for the worst possible case.  The mmu notifier
calls in this commit are different than upstream.  That is because
upstream went to a different model here.  Instead of moving to the
new model, we leave existing model unchanged and only use the
mmu_*range* calls in this special case.
