Tetsuo Handa has noticed that MMF_UNSTABLE SIGBUS path in handle_mm_fault causes a lockdep splat Out of memory: Kill process 1056 (a.out) score 603 or sacrifice child Killed process 1056 (a.out) total-vm:4268108kB, anon-rss:2246048kB, file-rss:0kB, shmem-rss:0kB a.out (1169) used greatest stack depth: 11664 bytes left DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON(depth <= 0) ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: CPU: 6 PID: 1339 at kernel/locking/lockdep.c:3617 lock_release+0x172/0x1e0 CPU: 6 PID: 1339 Comm: a.out Not tainted 4.13.0-rc3-next-20170803+ #142 Hardware name: VMware, Inc. VMware Virtual Platform/440BX Desktop Reference Platform, BIOS 6.00 07/02/2015 RIP: 0010:lock_release+0x172/0x1e0 Call Trace: up_read+0x1a/0x40 __do_page_fault+0x28e/0x4c0 do_page_fault+0x30/0x80 page_fault+0x28/0x30 The reason is that the page fault path might have dropped the mmap_sem and returned with VM_FAULT_RETRY. MMF_UNSTABLE check however rewrites the error path to VM_FAULT_SIGBUS and we always expect mmap_sem taken in that path. Fix this by taking mmap_sem when VM_FAULT_RETRY is held in the MMF_UNSTABLE path. We cannot simply add VM_FAULT_SIGBUS to the existing error code because all arch specific page fault handlers and g-u-p would have to learn a new error code combination.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
