Yeah, I tend to agree. Consider this happens in the only small window between ms->usage releasing and ms->section_mem_map releasing when removing a section. Just thought adding this check to enhance it even though we have had your fix, because we only check ms->section_mem_map in valid_section(). Anyway, your fix looks good to me, see if other people have any comment. Thanks Baoquan

Otherwise, this fix looks good to me. Reviewed-by: Baoquan He
[PATCH] mm/sparse: Fix kernel crash with pfn_section_valid check
Fixes the below crash BUG: Kernel NULL pointer dereference on read at 0x Faulting instruction address: 0xc0c3447c Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1] LE PAGE_SIZE=64K MMU=Hash SMP NR_CPUS=2048 NUMA pSeries CPU: 11 PID: 7519 Comm: lt-ndctl Not tainted 5.6.0-rc7-autotest #1 ...

This was done so that pfn_page() can work correctly with kernel config that disables SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP. With that config pfn_to_page does __section_mem_map_addr(__sec) + __pfn; where static inline struct page *__section_mem_map_addr(struct mem_section *section) { unsigned long map = section->section_mem_map; map &= SECTION_MAP_MASK; return (struct page *)map; } Now with SPASEMEM_VMEMAP enabled, mem_section->usage->subsection_map is used to check the pfn validity (pfn_valid()). Since section_deactivate release mem_section->usage if a section is fully deactivated, pfn_valid() check after a subsection_deactivate cause a kernel crash. static inline int pfn_valid(unsigned long pfn) { ... return early_section(ms) || pfn_section_valid(ms, pfn); } where static inline int pfn_section_valid(struct mem_section *ms, unsigned long pfn) { int idx = subsection_map_index(pfn); return test_bit(idx, ms->usage->subsection_map); } Avoid this by clearing SECTION_HAS_MEM_MAP when mem_section->usage is freed.
