Subject: [PATCH v5.2 1/2] locking/rwsem: Add missing ACQUIRE to read_slowpath exit when queue is empty

From: Jan Stancek <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit e1b98fa316648420d0434d9ff5b92ad6609ba6c3 ]

LTP mtest06 has been observed to occasionally hit "still mapped when
deleted" and following BUG_ON on arm64.

The extra mapcount originated from pagefault handler, which handled
pagefault for vma that has already been detached. vma is detached
under mmap_sem write lock by detach_vmas_to_be_unmapped(), which
also invalidates vmacache.

When the pagefault handler (under mmap_sem read lock) calls
find_vma(), vmacache_valid() wrongly reports vmacache as valid.

After rwsem down_read() returns via 'queue empty' path (as of v5.2),
it does so without an ACQUIRE on sem->count:

down_read()
__down_read()
rwsem_down_read_failed()
__rwsem_down_read_failed_common()
raw_spin_lock_irq(&sem->wait_lock);
if (list_empty(&sem->wait_list)) {
if (atomic_long_read(&sem->count) >= 0) {
raw_spin_unlock_irq(&sem->wait_lock);
return sem;

The problem can be reproduced by running LTP mtest06 in a loop and
building the kernel (-j $NCPUS) in parallel. It does reproduces since
v4.20 on arm64 HPE Apollo 70 (224 CPUs, 256GB RAM, 2 nodes). It
triggers reliably in about an hour.

The patched kernel ran fine for 10+ hours.

This is a backport for the v5.2 stable tree. There were multiple reports
of this issue being hit.

Given that there were a few changes to the code around this, I'd
appreciate an ack before pulling it in.

Subject: [PATCH v5.2 2/2] lcoking/rwsem: Add missing ACQUIRE to read_slowpath sleep loop

From: Peter Zijlstra <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit 99143f82a255e7f054bead8443462fae76dd829e ]

While reviewing another read_slowpath patch, both Will and I noticed
another missing ACQUIRE, namely:

X = 0;

CPU0 CPU1

rwsem_down_read()
for (;;) {
set_current_state(TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE);

X = 1;
rwsem_up_write();
rwsem_mark_wake()
atomic_long_add(adjustment, &sem->count);
smp_store_release(&waiter->task, NULL);

if (!waiter.task)
break;

...
}

r = X;

Allows 'r == 0'.

ACK, both look good to me.
I also re-ran reproducer with this series applied on top of 5.2.10, it PASS-ed.

Thanks,

I've queued both for 5.2, thanks Jan.
