From c118678bc79e8241f9d3434d9324c6400d72f48a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Konstantin Khlebnikov Date: Wed, 23 Jul 2014 14:00:08 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] mm: do not call do_fault_around for non-linear fault Ingo Korb reported that "repeated mapping of the same file on tmpfs using remap_file_pages sometimes triggers a BUG at mm/filemap.c:202 when the process exits". He bisected the bug to d7c1755179b8 ("mm: implement ->map_pages for shmem/tmpfs"), although the bug was actually added by commit 8c6e50b0290c ("mm: introduce vm_ops->map_pages()"). The problem is caused by calling do_fault_around for a _non-linear_ fault. In this case pgoff is shifted and might become negative during calculation. Faulting around non-linear page-fault makes no sense and breaks the logic in do_fault_around because pgoff is shifted.
