commit be21b32afe470c5ae98e27e49201158a47032942 upstream.

Depending on the memory configuration, isolate_freepages_block() may scan
pages out of the target range and causes panic.

Panic can occur on systems with multiple zones in a single pageblock.

The reason it is rare is that it only happens in special
configurations.  Depending on how many similar systems there are, it
may be a good idea to fix this problem for older kernels as well.

The problem is that pfn as argument of fast_isolate_around() could be out
of the target range.  Therefore we should consider the case where pfn &lt;
start_pfn, and also the case where end_pfn &lt; pfn.

This problem should have been addressd by the commit 6e2b7044c199 ("mm,
compaction: make fast_isolate_freepages() stay within zone") but there was
an oversight.

 Case1: pfn &lt; start_pfn

  &lt;at memory compaction for node Y&gt;
  |  node X's zone  | node Y's zone
  +-----------------+------------------------------...
   pageblock    ^   ^     ^
  +-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+...
                ^   ^     ^
                ^   ^      end_pfn
                ^    start_pfn = cc-&gt;zone-&gt;zone_start_pfn
                 pfn
                &lt;---------&gt; scanned range by "Scan After"

 Case2: end_pfn &lt; pfn

  &lt;at memory compaction for node X&gt;
  |  node X's zone  | node Y's zone
  +-----------------+------------------------------...
   pageblock  ^     ^   ^
  +-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+...
              ^     ^   ^
              ^     ^    pfn
              ^      end_pfn
               start_pfn
              &lt;---------&gt; scanned range by "Scan Before"

It seems that there is no good reason to skip nr_isolated pages just after
given pfn.  So let perform simple scan from start to end instead of
dividing the scan into "Before" and "After".

commit 829ae0f81ce093d674ff2256f66a714753e9ce32 upstream.

The issue is reported when removing memory through virtio_mem device.  The
transparent huge page, experienced copy-on-write fault, is wrongly
regarded as pinned.  The transparent huge page is escaped from being
isolated in isolate_migratepages_block().  The transparent huge page can't
be migrated and the corresponding memory block can't be put into offline
state.

Fix it by replacing page_mapcount() with total_mapcount().  With this, the
transparent huge page can be isolated and migrated, and the memory block
can be put into offline state.  Besides, The page's refcount is increased
a bit earlier to avoid the page is released when the check is executed.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
 "Most of the MM queue. A few things are still pending.

  Liam's maple tree rework didn't make it. This has resulted in a few
  other minor patch series being held over for next time.

  Multi-gen LRU still isn't merged as we were waiting for mapletree to
  stabilize. The current plan is to merge MGLRU into -mm soon and to
  later reintroduce mapletree, with a view to hopefully getting both
  into 6.1-rc1.

  Summary:

   - The usual batches of cleanups from Baoquan He, Muchun Song, Miaohe
     Lin, Yang Shi, Anshuman Khandual and Mike Rapoport

   - Some kmemleak fixes from Patrick Wang and Waiman Long

   - DAMON updates from SeongJae Park

   - memcg debug/visibility work from Roman Gushchin

   - vmalloc speedup from Uladzislau Rezki

   - more folio conversion work from Matthew Wilcox

   - enhancements for coherent device memory mapping from Alex Sierra

   - addition of shared pages tracking and CoW support for fsdax, from
     Shiyang Ruan

   - hugetlb optimizations from Mike Kravetz

   - Mel Gorman has contributed some pagealloc changes to improve
     latency and realtime behaviour.

   - mprotect soft-dirty checking has been improved by Peter Xu

   - Many other singleton patches all over the place"

These drivers are rather uncomfortably hammered into the
address_space_operations hole.  They aren't filesystems and don't behave
like filesystems.  They just need their own movable_operations structure,
which we can point to directly from page-&gt;mapping.

<title>mm: compaction: include compound page count for scanning in pageblock isolation</title>

The number of scanned pages can be lower than the number of isolated pages
when isolating mirgratable or free pageblock.  The metric is being
reported in trace event and also used in vmstat.

some example output from trace where it shows nr_taken can be greater
than nr_scanned:

Produced by kernel v5.19-rc6
kcompactd0-42      [001] .....  1210.268022: mm_compaction_isolate_migratepages: range=(0x107ae4 ~ 0x107c00) nr_scanned=265 nr_taken=255
[...]
kcompactd0-42      [001] .....  1210.268382: mm_compaction_isolate_freepages: range=(0x215800 ~ 0x215a00) nr_scanned=13 nr_taken=128
kcompactd0-42      [001] .....  1210.268383: mm_compaction_isolate_freepages: range=(0x215600 ~ 0x215680) nr_scanned=1 nr_taken=128

mm_compaction_isolate_migratepages does not seem to have this
behaviour, but for the reason of consistency, nr_scanned should also be
taken care of in that side.

This behaviour is confusing since currently the count for isolated pages
takes account of compound page but not for the case of scanned pages.  And
given that the number of isolated pages(nr_taken) reported in
mm_compaction_isolate_template trace event is on a single-page basis, the
ambiguity when reporting the number of scanned pages can be removed by
also including compound page count.

Comments that mention mem_hotplug_end() are confusing as there is no
function called mem_hotplug_end().  Fix them by replacing all the
occurences of mem_hotplug_end() in the comments with mem_hotplug_done().

<content type='text'>
At present, pages not in the target zone are added to cc-&gt;migratepages
list in isolate_migratepages_block().  As a result, pages may migrate
between nodes unintentionally.

This would be a serious problem for older kernels without commit
a984226f457f849e ("mm: memcontrol: remove the pgdata parameter of
mem_cgroup_page_lruvec"), because it can corrupt the lru list by
handling pages in list without holding proper lru_lock.

Avoid returning a pfn outside the target zone in the case that it is
not aligned with a pageblock boundary.  Otherwise
isolate_migratepages_block() will handle pages not in the target zone.
