Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because
the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Created attachment 514712 [details] xen mmu: fix a race window causing leave_mm BUG() Cherry-pick 7899891c7d161752f29abcc9bc0a9c6c3a3af26c from upstream. Original commit message: xen mmu: fix a race window causing leave_mm BUG() There's a race window in xen_drop_mm_ref, where remote cpu may exit dirty bitmap between the check on this cpu and the point where remote cpu handles drop request. So in drop_other_mm_ref we need check whether TLB state is still lazy before calling into leave_mm. This bug is rarely observed in earlier kernel, but exaggerated by the commit 831d52bc153971b70e64eccfbed2b232394f22f8 ("x86, mm: avoid possible bogus tlb entries by clearing prev mm_cpumask after switching mm") which clears bitmap after changing the TLB state. the call trace is as below: --------------------------------- kernel BUG at arch/x86/mm/tlb.c:61! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP last sysfs file: /sys/devices/system/xen_memory/xen_memory0/info/current_kb CPU 1 Modules linked in: 8021q garp xen_netback xen_blkback blktap blkback_pagemap nbd bridge stp llc autofs4 ipmi_devintf ipmi_si ipmi_msghandler lockd sunrpc bonding ipv6 xenfs dm_multipath video output sbs sb Pid: 25581, comm: khelper Not tainted 2.6.32.36fixxen #1 Tecal RH2285 RIP: e030:[<ffffffff8103a3cb>] [<ffffffff8103a3cb>] leave_mm+0x15/0x46 RSP: e02b:ffff88002805be48 EFLAGS: 00010046 RAX: 0000000000000000 RBX: 0000000000000001 RCX: ffff88015f8e2da0 RDX: ffff88002805be78 RSI: 0000000000000000 RDI: 0000000000000001 RBP: ffff88002805be48 R08: ffff88009d662000 R09: dead000000200200 R10: dead000000100100 R11: ffffffff814472b2 R12: ffff88009bfc1880 R13: ffff880028063020 R14: 00000000000004f6 R15: 0000000000000000 FS: 00007f62362d66e0(0000) GS:ffff880028058000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: e033 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 000000008005003b CR2: 0000003aabc11909 CR3: 000000009b8ca000 CR4: 0000000000002660 DR0: 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 00000000000000 00 DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000ffff0ff0 DR7: 0000000000000400 Process khelper (pid: 25581, threadinfo ffff88007691e000, task ffff88009b92db40) Stack: ffff88002805be68 ffffffff8100e4ae 0000000000000001 ffff88009d733b88 <0> ffff88002805be98 ffffffff81087224 ffff88002805be78 ffff88002805be78 <0> ffff88015f808360 00000000000004f6 ffff88002805bea8 ffffffff81010108 Call Trace: <IRQ> [<ffffffff8100e4ae>] drop_other_mm_ref+0x2a/0x53 [<ffffffff81087224>] generic_smp_call_function_single_interrupt+0xd8/0xfc [<ffffffff81010108>] xen_call_function_single_interrupt+0x13/0x28 [<ffffffff810a936a>] handle_IRQ_event+0x66/0x120 [<ffffffff810aac5b>] handle_percpu_irq+0x41/0x6e [<ffffffff8128c1c0>] __xen_evtchn_do_upcall+0x1ab/0x27d [<ffffffff8128dd11>] xen_evtchn_do_upcall+0x33/0x46 [<ffffffff81013efe>] xen_do_hyper visor_callback+0x1e/0x30 <EOI> [<ffffffff814472b2>] ? _spin_unlock_irqrestore+0x15/0x17 [<ffffffff8100f8cf>] ? xen_restore_fl_direct_end+0x0/0x1 [<ffffffff81113f71>] ? flush_old_exec+0x3ac/0x500 [<ffffffff81150dc5>] ? load_elf_binary+0x0/0x17ef [<ffffffff81150dc5>] ? load_elf_binary+0x0/0x17ef [<ffffffff8115115d>] ? load_elf_binary+0x398/0x17ef [<ffffffff81042fcf>] ? need_resched+0x23/0x2d [<ffffffff811f4648>] ? process_measurement+0xc0/0xd7 [<ffffffff81150dc5>] ? load_elf_binary+0x0/0x17ef [<ffffffff81113094>] ? search_binary_handler+0xc8/0x255 [<ffffffff81114362>] ? do_execve+0x1c3/0x29e [<ffffffff8101155d>] ? sys_execve+0x43/0x5d [<ffffffff8106fc45>] ? __call_usermodehelper+0x0/0x6f [<ffffffff81013e28>] ? kernel_execve+0x68/0xd0 [<ffffffff 8106fc45>] ? __call_usermodehelper+0x0/0x6f [<ffffffff8100f8cf>] ? xen_restore_fl_direct_end+0x0/0x1 [<ffffffff8106fb64>] ? ____call_usermodehelper+0x113/0x11e [<ffffffff81013daa>] ? child_rip+0xa/0x20 [<ffffffff8106fc45>] ? __call_usermodehelper+0x0/0x6f [<ffffffff81012f91>] ? int_ret_from_sys_call+0x7/0x1b [<ffffffff8101371d>] ? retint_restore_args+0x5/0x6 [<ffffffff81013da0>] ? child_rip+0x0/0x20 Code: 41 5e 41 5f c9 c3 55 48 89 e5 0f 1f 44 00 00 e8 17 ff ff ff c9 c3 55 48 89 e5 0f 1f 44 00 00 65 8b 04 25 c8 55 01 00 ff c8 75 04 <0f> 0b eb fe 65 48 8b 34 25 c0 55 01 00 48 81 c6 b8 02 00 00 e8 RIP [<ffffffff8103a3cb>] leave_mm+0x15/0x46 RSP <ffff88002805be48> ---[ end trace ce9cee6832a9c503 ]--- Tested-by: Maoxiaoyun<tinnycloud> Signed-off-by: Kevin Tian <kevin.tian> [v1: Fleshed out the git description a bit] Signed-off-by: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk>
