    hugetlb_cgroup: fix imbalanced css_get and css_put pair for shared mappings · d85aecf2
    Miaohe Lin 提交于
    The current implementation of hugetlb_cgroup for shared mappings could
    have different behavior.  Consider the following two scenarios:
    
     1.Assume initial css reference count of hugetlb_cgroup is 1:
      1.1 Call hugetlb_reserve_pages with from = 1, to = 2. So css reference
          count is 2 associated with 1 file_region.
      1.2 Call hugetlb_reserve_pages with from = 2, to = 3. So css reference
          count is 3 associated with 2 file_region.
      1.3 coalesce_file_region will coalesce these two file_regions into
          one. So css reference count is 3 associated with 1 file_region
          now.
    
     2.Assume initial css reference count of hugetlb_cgroup is 1 again:
      2.1 Call hugetlb_reserve_pages with from = 1, to = 3. So css reference
          count is 2 associated with 1 file_region.
    
    Therefore, we might have one file_region while holding one or more css
    reference counts. This inconsistency could lead to imbalanced css_get()
    and css_put() pair. If we do css_put one by one (i.g. hole punch case),
    scenario 2 would put one more css reference. If we do css_put all
    together (i.g. truncate case), scenario 1 will leak one css reference.
    
    The imbalanced css_get() and css_put() pair would result in a non-zero
    reference when we try to destroy the hugetlb cgroup. The hugetlb cgroup
    directory is removed __but__ associated resource is not freed. This
    might result in OOM or can not create a new hugetlb cgroup in a busy
    workload ultimately.
    
    In order to fix this, we have to make sure that one file_region must
    hold exactly one css reference. So in coalesce_file_region case, we
    should release one css reference before coalescence. Also only put css
    reference when the entire file_region is removed.
    
    The last thing to note is that the caller of region_add() will only hold
    one reference to h_cg->css for the whole contiguous reservation region.
    But this area might be scattered when there are already some
    file_regions reside in it. As a result, many file_regions may share only
    one h_cg->css reference. In order to ensure that one file_region must
    hold exactly one css reference, we should do css_get() for each
    file_region and release the reference held by caller when they are done.
