Huge vmalloc higher-order backing pages were allocated with __GFP_COMP in order to allow the sub-pages to be refcounted by callers such as "remap_vmalloc_page [sic]" (remap_vmalloc_range). However a similar problem exists for other struct page fields callers use, for example fb_deferred_io_fault() takes a vmalloc'ed page and not only refcounts it but uses ->lru, ->mapping, ->index. This is not compatible with compound sub-pages, and can cause bad page state issues like BUG: Bad page state in process swapper/0 pfn:00743 page:(____ptrval____) refcount:0 mapcount:0 mapping:0000000000000000 index:0x0 pfn:0x743 flags: 0x7ffff000000000(node=0|zone=0|lastcpupid=0x7ffff) raw: 007ffff000000000 c00c00000001d0c8 c00c00000001d0c8 0000000000000000 raw: 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 00000000ffffffff 0000000000000000 page dumped because: corrupted mapping in tail page Modules linked in: CPU: 0 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 5.18.0-rc3-00082-gfc6fff4a7ce1-dirty #2810 Call Trace: dump_stack_lvl+0x74/0xa8 (unreliable) bad_page+0x12c/0x170 free_tail_pages_check+0xe8/0x190 free_pcp_prepare+0x31c/0x4e0 free_unref_page+0x40/0x1b0 __vunmap+0x1d8/0x420 ... The correct approach is to use split high-order pages for the huge vmalloc backing. These allow callers to treat them in exactly the same way as individually-allocated order-0 pages.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
