What config are you using? How often are you hitting it? It may not have anything to do with the config, and I may be getting lucky with the garbage in my memory.

After some poking around, turns out enabling DEBUG_VM with its page poisoning let me hit it right away, which makes me wonder how often someone would see this without it. Anyway, fix looks good to me. Tested-by: Daniel Jordan <daniel.m.jordan@oracle.com>

If max_pfn is not aligned to a section boundary, we can easily run into BUGs. This can e.g., be triggered on x86-64 under QEMU by specifying a memory size that is not a multiple of 128MB (e.g., 4097MB, but also 4160MB). I was told that on real HW, we can easily have this scenario (esp., one of the main reasons sub-section hotadd of devmem was added). The issue is, that we have a valid memmap (pfn_valid()) for the whole section, and the whole section will be marked "online". pfn_to_online_page() will succeed, but the memmap contains garbage. E.g., doing a "cat /proc/kpageflags > /dev/null" results in [ 303.218313] BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: fffffffffffffffe [ 303.218899] #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode [ 303.219344] #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page [ 303.219787] PGD 12614067 P4D 12614067 PUD 12616067 PMD 0 [ 303.220266] Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP NOPTI [ 303.220587] CPU: 0 PID: 424 Comm: cat Not tainted 5.4.0-next-20191128+ #17 [ 303.221169] Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS rel-1.12.0-59-gc9ba5276e321-prebuilt.qemu4 [ 303.222140] RIP: 0010:stable_page_flags+0x4d/0x410 [ 303.222554] Code: f3 ff 41 89 c0 48 b8 00 00 00 00 01 00 00 00 45 84 c0 0f 85 cd 02 00 00 48 8b 53 08 48 8b 2b 48f [ 303.224135] RSP: 0018:ffff9f5980187e58 EFLAGS: 00010202 [ 303.224576] RAX: fffffffffffffffe RBX: ffffda1285004000 RCX: ffff9f5980187dd4 [ 303.225178] RDX: 0000000000000001 RSI: ffffffff92662420 RDI: 0000000000000246 [ 303.225789] RBP: ffffffffffffffff R08: 0000000000000000 R09: 0000000000000000 [ 303.226405] R10: 0000000000000000 R11: 0000000000000000 R12: 00007f31d070e000 [ 303.227012] R13: 0000000000140100 R14: 00007f31d070e800 R15: ffffda1285004000 [ 303.227629] FS: 00007f31d08f6580(0000) GS:ffff90a6bba00000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 [ 303.228329] CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 [ 303.228820] CR2: fffffffffffffffe CR3: 00000001332a2000 CR4: 00000000000006f0 [ 303.229438] Call Trace: [ 303.229654] kpageflags_read.cold+0x57/0xf0 [ 303.230016] proc_reg_read+0x3c/0x60 [ 303.230332] vfs_read+0xc2/0x170 [ 303.230614] ksys_read+0x65/0xe0 [ 303.230898] do_syscall_64+0x5c/0xa0 [ 303.231216] entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x49/0xbe This patch fixes that by at least zero-ing out that memmap (so e.g., page_to_pfn() will not crash). Commit 907ec5fca3dc ("mm: zero remaining unavailable struct pages") tried to fix a similar issue, but forgot to consider this special case. After this patch, there are still problems to solve. E.g., not all of these pages falling into a memory hole will actually get initialized later and set PageReserved - they are only zeroed out - but at least the immediate crashes are gone. A follow-up patch will take care of this.
