[PATCH -V2 -mm] mm: Fix races between swapoff and flush dcache

From: Huang, Ying
Date: Mon Mar 05 2018 - 03:37:12 EST

From: Huang Ying <ying.huang@xxxxxxxxx>

>From commit 4b3ef9daa4fc ("mm/swap: split swap cache into 64MB
trunks") on, after swapoff, the address_space associated with the swap
device will be freed. So page_mapping() users which may touch the
address_space need some kind of mechanism to prevent the address_space
from being freed during accessing.

The dcache flushing functions (flush_dcache_page(), etc) in
architecture specific code may access the address_space of swap device
for anonymous pages in swap cache via page_mapping() function. But in
some cases there are no mechanisms to prevent the swap device from
being swapoff, for example,

CPU1 CPU2
__get_user_pages() swapoff()
flush_dcache_page()
mapping = page_mapping()
... exit_swap_address_space()
... kvfree(spaces)
mapping_mapped(mapping)

The address space may be accessed after being freed.

But from cachetlb.txt and Russell King, flush_dcache_page() only care
about file cache pages, for anonymous pages, flush_anon_page() should
be used. The implementation of flush_dcache_page() in all
architectures follows this too. They will check whether
page_mapping() is NULL and whether mapping_mapped() is true to
determine whether to flush the dcache immediately. And they will use
interval tree (mapping->i_mmap) to find all user space mappings.
While mapping_mapped() and mapping->i_mmap isn't used by anonymous
pages in swap cache at all.

So, to fix the race between swapoff and flush dcache, __page_mapping()
is add to return the address_space for file cache pages and NULL
otherwise. All page_mapping() invoking in flush dcache functions are
replaced with __page_mapping().

Changes:

v2:

- Rename __page_mapping() to page_mapping_file() and simplified
implementation as suggested by Andrew Morton.
