3.6-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Michal Hocko <[email protected]> commit 36e4f20af833d1ce196e6a4ade05dc26c44652d1 upstream. Commit 0c176d52b0b2 ("mm: hugetlb: fix pgoff computation when unmapping page from vma") fixed pgoff calculation but it has replaced it by vma_hugecache_offset() which is not approapriate for offsets used for vma_prio_tree_foreach() because that one expects index in page units rather than in huge_page_shift. Johannes said: : The resulting index may not be too big, but it can be too small: assume : hpage size of 2M and the address to unmap to be 0x200000. This is regular : page index 512 and hpage index 1. If you have a VMA that maps the file : only starting at the second huge page, that VMAs vm_pgoff will be 512 but : you ask for offset 1 and miss it even though it does map the page of : interest. hugetlb_cow() will try to unmap, miss the vma, and retry the : cow until the allocation succeeds or the skipped vma(s) go away.
