When tcmu_vma_fault() gets one page successfully, before the current context completes page fault procedure, find_free_blocks() may run in and call unmap_mapping_range() to unmap this page. Assume when find_free_blocks() completes its job firstly, previous page fault procedure starts to run again and completes, then one truncated page has beed mapped to use space, but note that tcmu_vma_fault() has gotten one refcount for this page, so any other subsystem won't use this page, unless later the use space addr is unmapped. If another command runs in later and needs to extends dbi_thresh, it may reuse the corresponding slot to previous page in data_bitmap, then though we'll allocate new page for this slot in data_area, but no page fault will happen again, because we have a valid map, real request's data will lose. Filesystem implementations will also run into this issue, but they usually lock page when vm_operations_struct->fault gets one page, and unlock page after finish_fault() completes. In truncate sides, they lock pages in truncate_inode_pages() to protect race with page fault. We can also have similar codes like filesystem to fix this issue. To fix this possible data corruption, we can apply similar method like filesystem. For pages that are to be freed, tcmu_blocks_release() locks and unlocks these pages, and make tcmu_vma_fault() also lock found page under cmdr_lock. At the same time, since tcmu_vma_fault() gets one extra page refcount, tcmu_blocks_release() won't free pages if pages are in page fault procedure, which means it's safe to call tcmu_blocks_release() before unmap_mapping_range(). With above action, for above race, tcmu_blocks_release() will wait all page faults to be completed before calling unmap_mapping_range(), and later if unmap_mapping_range() is called, it will ensure stale mappings to be removed cleanly. Signed-off-by: Xiaoguang Wang <xiaoguang.wang@linux.alibaba.com> --- V4: Add comments to explain why it's safe to call tcmu_blocks_release() before unmap_mapping_range(). V3: Just lock/unlock_page in tcmu_blocks_release(), and call tcmu_blocks_release() before unmap_mapping_range(). V2: Wait all possible inflight page faults to be completed in find_free_blocks() to fix possible stale map. --- drivers/target/target_core_user.c | 36 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++--- 1 file changed, 33 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-)
