do_page_fault() forgot to relinquish mmap_sem if a signal came while handling handle_mm_fault() - due to say a ctl+c or oom etc. This would later cause a deadlock by acquiring it twice. This came to light when running libc testsuite tst-tls3-malloc test but is likely also the cause for prior seen LTP failures. Using lockdep clearly showed what the issue was. | # while true; do ./tst-tls3-malloc ; done | Didn't expect signal from child: got `Segmentation fault' | ^C | ============================================ | WARNING: possible recursive locking detected | 4.17.0+ #25 Not tainted | -------------------------------------------- | tst-tls3-malloc/510 is trying to acquire lock: | 606c7728 (&mm->mmap_sem){++++}, at: __might_fault+0x28/0x5c | |but task is already holding lock: |606c7728 (&mm->mmap_sem){++++}, at: do_page_fault+0x9c/0x2a0 | | other info that might help us debug this: | Possible unsafe locking scenario: | | CPU0 | ---- | lock(&mm->mmap_sem); | lock(&mm->mmap_sem); | | *** DEADLOCK *** | ------------------------------------------------------------ What the change does is not obvious (note to myself) prior code was | do_page_fault | | down_read() <-- lock taken | handle_mm_fault <-- signal pending as this runs | if fatal_signal_pending | if VM_FAULT_ERROR | up_read | if user_mode | return <-- lock still held, this was the BUG New code | do_page_fault | | down_read() <-- lock taken | handle_mm_fault <-- signal pending as this runs | if fatal_signal_pending | if VM_FAULT_RETRY | return <-- not same case as above, but still OK since | core mm already relinq lock for FAULT_RETRY | ... | | < Now falls through for bug case above > | | up_read() <-- lock relinquished Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com> |
