| Subject: [PATCH] mm: do not access page->mapping directly on page_endio |
| |
| commit dd8416c47715cf324c9a16f13273f9fda87acfed upstream. |
| |
| With rw_page, page_endio is used for completing IO on a page and it |
| propagates write error to the address space if the IO fails. The |
| problem is it accesses page->mapping directly which might be okay for |
| file-backed pages but it shouldn't for anonymous page. Otherwise, it |
| can corrupt one of field from anon_vma under us and system goes panic |
| randomly. |
| |
| swap_writepage |
| bdev_writepage |
| ops->rw_page |
| |
| I encountered the BUG during developing new zram feature and it was |
| really hard to figure it out because it made random crash, somtime |
| mmap_sem lockdep, sometime other places where places never related to |
| zram/zsmalloc, and not reproducible with some configuration. |
| |
| When I consider how that bug is subtle and people do fast-swap test with |
| brd, it's worth to add stable mark, I think. |
| |
| Fixes: dd6bd0d9c7db ("swap: use bdev_read_page() / bdev_write_page()") |
