Subject: [v2 PATCH] mm: thp: check total_mapcount instead of page_mapcount
Date: Thu, 13 May 2021 14:23:34 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210513212334.217424-1-shy828301@gmail.com> (raw)

When debugging the bug reported by Wang Yugui [1], try_to_unmap() may
return false positive for PTE-mapped THP since page_mapcount() is used
to check if the THP is unmapped, but it just checks compound mapount and
head page's mapcount.  If the THP is PTE-mapped and head page is not
mapped, it may return false positive.

Use total_mapcount() instead of page_mapcount() for try_to_unmap() and
do so for the VM_BUG_ON_PAGE in split_huge_page_to_list as well.

This changed the semantic of try_to_unmap(), but I don't see there is
any usecase that expects try_to_unmap() just unmap one subpage of a huge
page.  So using page_mapcount() seems like a bug.
