Yeah it seems that you brought about a tear in the space-time continuum and the very moment you said that Bert reported that yes sadly this doesn't fix it :>) I thought maybe some very weird bug by this function returning a non-error result (of zero!) when it should have failed might have triggered some later maple tree corruption but yeah, long shot I guess :( Still, ultimately it spawned from the report and forms part of an overall fix of the function so may as well vaguely keep the R-b tag, I kept it a link rather than 'closes' so should be fine. > > > Suggested-by: Vegard Nossum <vegard.nossum@oracle.com> > > Fixes: f8d112a4e657 ("mm/mmap: avoid zeroing vma tree in mmap_region()") > > Signed-off-by: Lorenzo Stoakes <lorenzo.stoakes@oracle.com> > > Reviewed-by: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz> > > Thanks!

Note that this does fix an absolutely critical issue, just not the one that triggered this. I'll resend dropping the reported-by and link tags and adding Vlasta's reviewed-by but everything else is valid.

Commit f8d112a4e657 ("mm/mmap: avoid zeroing vma tree in mmap_region()") changed how error handling is performed in mmap_region(). The error value defaults to -ENOMEM, but then gets reassigned immediately to the result of vms_gather_munmap_vmas() if we are performing a MAP_FIXED mapping over existing VMAs (and thus unmapping them). This overwrites the error value, potentially clearing it. After this, we invoke may_expand_vm() and possibly vm_area_alloc(), and check to see if they failed. If they do so, then we perform error-handling logic, but importantly, we do NOT update the error code. This means that, if vms_gather_munmap_vmas() succeeds, but one of these calls does not, the function will return indicating no error, but rather an address value of zero, which is entirely incorrect. Correct this and avoid future confusion by strictly setting error on each and every occasion we jump to the error handling logic, and set the error code immediately prior to doing so. This way we can see at a glance that the error code is always correct. Many thanks to Vegard Nossum who spotted this issue in discussion around this problem.
