I have Linux host running as a kvm hypervisor.  It's running CentOS.  (So the 
kernel is based on 3.10 but with loads of stuff backported by RedHat.)  I 
realize this is not a mainline kernel, but I was wondering if anyone is aware of 
similar issues that had been fixed in mainline.

When doing a bunch of live migrations eventually I hit a bunch of errors that 
look like this.

One interesting thing about the "Bad swap file entry" error is that these hosts 
do not have any swap configured:

compute-4:~$ free
               total        used        free      shared  buff/cache   available
Mem:      131805464   122187644     8815864      245456      801956     9193644
Swap:             0           0           0

So why is the kernel calling swap_info_get()?

In the second error, the offset in the SyS_madvise routine is here:
    0xffffffff8115dd77 <+951>:   callq  0xffffffff81161490 <zap_page_range>
    0xffffffff8115dd7c <+956>:   xor    %eax,%eax

this maps to the second zap_page_range() call below in madvise_dontneed():

	if (unlikely(vma->vm_flags & VM_NONLINEAR)) {
		struct zap_details details = {
			.nonlinear_vma = vma,
			.last_index = ULONG_MAX,
		};
		zap_page_range(vma, start, end - start, &details);
	} else
		zap_page_range(vma, start, end - start, NULL);

print_bad_pte() is called from this code in zap_pte_range():

		if (pte_file(ptent)) {
			if (unlikely(!(vma->vm_flags & VM_NONLINEAR)))
				print_bad_pte(vma, addr, ptent, NULL);

Here's the interesting bit...we're calling print_bad_pte() here if 
"vma->vm_flags & VM_NONLINEAR" is not true...but we called zap_page_range() with 
a "details" of NULL specifically because it was not true.  So probably 
pte_file(ptent) should not be true--but it is.

Any of this sound familiar to anyone?  Anyone have suggestions on how to bottom 
it out?

Chris
