Hello Punit, I ran the test with and without the kernel patch you're suggesting below. I do not see the "bad pmd ..." print that you are seeing in either case. All the tests are not passing for me though, it runs 42 test cases and 14 show up as failed for some reason.

I do not see the "bad pmd ..." print that you are seeing in > either case. Thanks for trying out the patch. It's important to understand why we are seeing the difference in behaviour. Looking at the code path, you should be hitting the "bad pmd" pr_err in dmesg. Any chance either hugepages or the memory failure configs weren't enabled in the test kernel? The test script (run_hugepage.sh) isn't particularly robust. It carries on executing even though some of the pre-conditions are not satisfied. I had seen the script continue even though some of the dependencies were missing from "bin" directory in the mce-test repo (Fixed by running "make install" in tools/page-types". Also, I reduced the console output and dmesg noise by executing only the failing test in run_hugepage.sh - "exec_testcase head late_touch file fork_shared killed". Can you try re-running with the other tests commented out? > All the tests are not passing for me though, it runs 42 > test cases and 14 show up as failed for some reason. I see similar behaviour. I think the failures are due to timing sensitivity when synchronising multi-process test cases - I saw a comment implying this somewhere but can't seem to find it now.

Hi Punit, Adding David Woods since he seems to have added the arm64-specific huge_pte_offset() code.

(pte_t *)pmd : NULL; I'm not sure we need to return NULL here when pmd_none(). If we use hugetlb at the pmd level we don't need to allocate a pmd page but just fall back to hugetlb_no_page() in hugetlb_fault(). The problem is we can't tell what kind of huge page we have when calling huge_pte_offset(), so we always rely on huge_pte_alloc(). But there are places where huge_pte_none() is checked explicitly and we would never return it from huge_pte_get(). Can we improve the generic code to pass the huge page size to huge_pte_offset()? Otherwise we make all kind of assumptions/guesses in the arch code. > > if (pte_cont(pmd_pte(*pmd))) { > pmd = pmd_offset( Given that we can have huge pages at the pud level, we should address that as well. The generic huge_pte_offset() doesn't need to since it assumes huge pages at the pmd level only. If a pud is not present, you can't dereference it to find the pmd, hence returning NULL. Apart from hw poisoning, I think another use-case for non-present pmd/pud entries is is_hugetlb_entry_migration() (see hugetlb_fault()), so we need to fix this either way. We have a discrepancy between the pud_present and pmd_present. The latter was modified to fall back on pte_present because of THP which does not support puds (last time I checked). So if a pud is poisoned, huge_pte_offset thinks it is present and will try to get the pmd it points to. I think we can leave the pud_present() unchanged but fix the huge_pte_offset() to check for pud_table() before dereferencing, otherwise returning the actual value. And we need to figure out which huge page size we have when the pud/pmd is 0.

We'll certainly need the huge page size as we are unable to differentiate between pmd and contiguous pmd for invalid entries too; and we'll need to return a pointer to the "head" pte_t. > >> >> if (pte_cont(pmd_pte(*pmd))) { >> pmd = pmd_offset( > > Given that we can have huge pages at the pud level, we should address > that as well.

I wasn't thinking of the contiguous bit for pud but rather what to return early based on present/huge/table. I think we have the cases below: 1. pud_present() && pud_huge(): return pud 2. pud_present() && pud_table(): continue to pmd 3. pud_present() && !pud_huge() && !pud_table(): return pud (huge pte poison at the pud level) 4. !pud_present() (a.k.a. pud_none()): a) return pud (if we have huge pages at the pud level) b) return NULL At 3 I assumed that we don't poison table entries, therefore it is safe to assume that the pud is an invalid huge page entry (poisoned, migration). At 4, I don't think we can currently distinguished between an empty huge page pud and an empty table pointing further to a pmd. We could go for NULL and assume that huge_pte_alloc() handles it properly.

The present fix only works for poisoned PMD entries. I'll prototype adding size parameter and using that to disambiguate huge page sizes. The change will touch a lot of architectures, most seem to have a local definition of huge_pte_offset(). > >> >> if (pte_cont(pmd_pte(*pmd))) { >> pmd = pmd_offset( > > Given that we can have huge pages at the pud level, we should address > that as well.
