16 years agofix hugepages leak due to pagetable page sharing
Larry Woodman [Thu, 24 Jan 2008 13:49:25 +0000 (05:49 -0800)]
fix hugepages leak due to pagetable page sharing

The shared page table code for hugetlb memory on x86 and x86_64
is causing a leak.  When a user of hugepages exits using this code
the system leaks some of the hugepages.

-------------------------------------------------------
Part of /proc/meminfo just before database startup:
HugePages_Total:  5500
HugePages_Free:   5500
HugePages_Rsvd:      0
Hugepagesize:     2048 kB

Just before shutdown:
HugePages_Total:  5500
HugePages_Free:   4475
HugePages_Rsvd:      0
Hugepagesize:     2048 kB

After shutdown:
HugePages_Total:  5500
HugePages_Free:   4988
HugePages_Rsvd:
0 Hugepagesize:     2048 kB
----------------------------------------------------------

The problem occurs durring a fork, in copy_hugetlb_page_range().  It
locates the dst_pte using huge_pte_alloc().  Since huge_pte_alloc() calls
huge_pmd_share() it will share the pmd page if can, yet the main loop in
copy_hugetlb_page_range() does a get_page() on every hugepage.  This is a
violation of the shared hugepmd pagetable protocol and creates additional
referenced to the hugepages causing a leak when the unmap of the VMA
occurs.  We can skip the entire replication of the ptes when the hugepage
pagetables are shared.  The attached patch skips copying the ptes and the
get_page() calls if the hugetlbpage pagetable is shared.

lockdep: fix kernel crash on module unload

Michael Wu noticed in his lkml post at

    http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=119396182726091&w=2

that certain wireless drivers ended up having their name in module
memory, which would then crash the kernel on module unload.

The patch he proposed was a bit clumsy in that it increased the size of
a lockdep entry significantly; the patch below tries another approach,
it checks, on module teardown, if the name of a class is in module space
and then zaps the class.  This is very similar to what we already do
with keys that are in module space.

Linux does not want BIOS writers to invoke _OSI(Linux) -
for in the field it causes more Windows incompatibility problems
than it solves.

So when it is seen in the BIOS for an Intel Customer Reference Board,
Linux should ignore its effect by default, and should complain loudly.
Otherwise, the reference BIOS will go unfixed, and the bad BIOS
will spread to the field.

Users of this board can get the old behavior with "acpi_osi=Linux"

As this was the only entry, delete acpi_osl_dmi_table[].

The change made transformations like turning:

"srom + 34"

"(__le32 *)srom + 34/4"

than in the original code.
