[PATCH 4.9 12/27] mm: fix double mmap_sem unlock on MMF_UNSTABLE enforced SIGBUS
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Aug 22 2017 - 15:30:11 EST
4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Michal Hocko <mhocko@xxxxxxxx>
commit 5b53a6ea886700a128b697a6fe8375340dea2c30 upstream.
Tetsuo Handa has noticed that MMF_UNSTABLE SIGBUS path in
handle_mm_fault causes a lockdep splat
Out of memory: Kill process 1056 (a.out) score 603 or sacrifice child

RIP: 0010:lock_release+0x172/0x1e0

do_page_fault+0x30/0x80
page_fault+0x28/0x30
The reason is that the page fault path might have dropped the mmap_sem
and returned with VM_FAULT_RETRY. MMF_UNSTABLE check however rewrites
the error path to VM_FAULT_SIGBUS and we always expect mmap_sem taken in
that path. Fix this by taking mmap_sem when VM_FAULT_RETRY is held in
the MMF_UNSTABLE path.
We cannot simply add VM_FAULT_SIGBUS to the existing error code because
all arch specific page fault handlers and g-u-p would have to learn a
new error code combination.
