dax: fix PMD data corruption when fault races with write
This is based on a patch from Jan Kara that fixed the equivalent race in the DAX PTE fault path. Currently DAX PMD read fault can race with write(2) in the following way: CPU1 - write(2) CPU2 - read fault dax_iomap_pmd_fault() ->iomap_begin() - sees hole dax_iomap_rw() iomap_apply() ->iomap_begin - allocates blocks dax_iomap_actor() invalidate_inode_pages2_range() - there's nothing to invalidate grab_mapping_entry() - we add huge zero page to the radix tree and map it to page tables The result is that hole page is mapped into page tables (and thus zeros are seen in mmap) while file has data written in that place. Fix the problem by locking exception entry before mapping blocks for the fault. That way we are sure invalidate_inode_pages2_range() call for racing write will either block on entry lock waiting for the fault to finish (and unmap stale page tables after that) or read fault will see already allocated blocks by write(2). Fixes: 9f141d6ef6258 ("dax: Call ->iomap_begin without entry lock during dax fault") Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170510172700.18991-1-ross.zwisler@linux.intel.com Signed-off-by: Ross Zwisler <ross.zwisler@linux.intel.com> Reviewed-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Cc: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
