The error handling in hugetlb_allocate_area() was incorrect for the hugetlb_shared test case. Previously the behavior was: - mmap a hugetlb area - If this fails, set the pointer to NULL, and carry on - mmap an alias of the same hugetlb fd - If this fails, munmap the original area If the original mmap failed, it's likely the second one did too. If both failed, we'd blindly try to munmap a NULL pointer, causing a SIGSEGV. Instead, "goto fail" so we return before trying to mmap the alias. This issue can be hit "in real life" by forgetting to set /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages (leaving it at 0), and then trying to run the hugetlb_shared test. Another small improvement is, when the original mmap fails, don't just print "it failed": perror(), so we can see *why*. :) Signed-off-by: Axel Rasmussen <axelrasmussen@google.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Shuah Khan <shuah@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Xu <peterx@redhat.com> Cc: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> Cc: Mike Rapoport <rppt@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange@redhat.com> Cc: David Alan Gilbert <dgilbert@redhat.com> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20201204203443.2714693-1-axelrasmussen@google.com Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> |
