Removing the assertion gets me further, but then I end up with this:

Which is caused by this:

static __always_inline int PageAnonExclusive(const struct page *page)
{
	VM_BUG_ON_PGFLAGS(!PageAnon(page), page);
	VM_BUG_ON_PGFLAGS(PageHuge(page) && !PageHead(page), page); <<<<
	return test_bit(PG_anon_exclusive, &PF_ANY(page, 1)->flags);
}

Which is called from can_follow_write_pmd(), called just after the assert I just commented out.


It's triggered by this test:

# [RUN] R/W longterm GUP pin in MAP_PRIVATE file mapping ... with memfd hugetlb (32768 kB)

Which is the first MAP_PRIVATE test for cont-pmd mapped hugetlb. (All MAP_SHARED tests are passing).


Looks like can_follow_write_pmd() returns early for VM_SHARED mappings.

I don't think we only keep the PAE flag in the head page for hugetlb pages? So we can't just remove this assert?

I tried just commenting it out and get assert further down follow_huge_pmd():

VM_BUG_ON_PAGE((flags & FOLL_PIN) && PageAnon(page) &&
			!PageAnonExclusive(page), page);

Thanks,
Ryan
