[PATCH] hugetlb: fix prio_tree unit

Hugh Dickins · Linus Torvalds · commit 856fc2950555 · 2006-10-28T11:30:53.000-07:00
hugetlb_vmtruncate_list was misconverted to prio_tree: its prio_tree is in
units of PAGE_SIZE (PAGE_CACHE_SIZE) like any other, not HPAGE_SIZE (whereas
its radix_tree is kept in units of HPAGE_SIZE, otherwise slots would be
absurdly sparse).

At first I thought the error benign, just calling __unmap_hugepage_range on
more vmas than necessary; but on 32-bit machines, when the prio_tree is
searched correctly, it happens to ensure the v_offset calculation won't
overflow.  As it stood, when truncating at or beyond 4GB, it was liable to
discard pages COWed from lower offsets; or even to clear pmd entries of
preceding vmas, triggering exit_mmap's BUG_ON(nr_ptes).
