This patch attempts to fix:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=56461
The symptom is a crash and messages like this:
chrome: Corrupted page table at address 34a03000
*pdpt = 0000000000000000 *pde = 0000000000000000
Bad pagetable: 000f [#1] PREEMPT SMP
Ingo guesses this got introduced by commit 611ae8e3f5 ("x86/tlb:
enable tlb flush range support for x86") since that code started to free
unused pagetables.
On x86-32 PAE kernels, that new code has the potential to free an entire
PMD page and will clear one of the four page-directory-pointer-table
(aka pgd_t entries).
The hardware aggressively "caches" these top-level entries and invlpg
does not actually affect the CPU's copy. If we clear one we *HAVE* to
do a full TLB flush, otherwise we might continue using a freed pmd page.
(note, we do this properly on the population side in pud_populate()).
This patch tracks whenever we clear one of these entries in the 'struct
mmu_gather', and ensures that we follow up with a full tlb flush.
BTW, I disassembled and checked that:
if (tlb->fullmm == 0)
and
if (!tlb->fullmm && !tlb->need_flush_all)
generate essentially the same code, so there should be zero impact there
to the !PAE case.
