[PATCH v2 02/10] mm/thp: make is_huge_zero_pmd() safe and quicker
From: Hugh Dickins
Date: Wed Jun 09 2021 - 00:09:21 EST
Most callers of is_huge_zero_pmd() supply a pmd already verified present;
but a few (notably zap_huge_pmd()) do not - it might be a pmd migration
entry, in which the pfn is encoded differently from a present pmd: which
might pass the is_huge_zero_pmd() test (though not on x86, since L1TF
forced us to protect against that); or perhaps even crash in pmd_page()
applied to a swap-like entry.
Make it safe by adding pmd_present() check into is_huge_zero_pmd() itself;
and make it quicker by saving huge_zero_pfn, so that is_huge_zero_pmd()
will not need to do that pmd_page() lookup each time.
__split_huge_pmd_locked() checked pmd_trans_huge() before: that worked,
but is unnecessary now that is_huge_zero_pmd() checks present.
Fixes: e71769ae5260 ("mm: enable thp migration for shmem thp")
