I could enable PAGE_TABLE_CHECK on arm64 after some hacks. It did not build on the platform otherwise. But enabling DEBUG_VM_PGTABLE afterwards did not create below mentioned problems.

Hi Anshuman, Thanks for looking into this.

This is not x86 specific problem, but page_table_check does not have support for other arches yet. The arm64 support is on my todo list. The patch for arm64 would look something like this: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=d283d422c6c4f0264fe8ecf5ae80036bf73f4594 > > > > > During the boot the following BUG is printed: > > > > [ 7.483050][ T1] debug_vm_pgtable: [debug_vm_pgtable ]: > > Validating architecture page tabs > > [ 7.490930][ T1] ------------[ cut here ]------------ > > [ 7.494926][ T1] kernel BUG at mm/page_table_check.c:194! > > Which BUG() is this ? mm/page_table_check.c:194 on latest mainline .. > > void __page_table_check_pud_clear(struct mm_struct *mm, unsigned long addr, > pud_t pud) <---- It turns out I pasted the backtrace from the modified kernel.

What is detected is that a page that potentially has a PTE entry in a user page table was put on a free list. It is not an issue for this test, but would be an issue if it happened elsewhere. > > > > > Signed-off-by: Pasha Tatashin <pasha.tatashin@soleen.com> > > Reviewed-by: Zi Yan <ziy@nvidia.com> > > Tested-by: Zi Yan <ziy@nvidia.com> > > --- > > mm/debug_vm_pgtable.c | 2 ++ > > 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+) > > > > diff --git a/mm/debug_vm_pgtable.c b/mm/debug_vm_pgtable.c > > index a7ac97c76762..db2abd9e415b 100644 > > --- a/mm/debug_vm_pgtable.c > > +++ b/mm/debug_vm_pgtable.c > > @@ -171,6 +171,8 @@ static void __init pte_advanced_tests(struct pgtable_debug_args *args) > > ptep_test_and_clear_young(args->vma, args->vaddr, args->ptep); > > pte = ptep_get(args->ptep); > > WARN_ON(pte_young(pte)); > > + > > + ptep_get_and_clear_full(args->mm, args->vaddr, args->ptep, 1); > > } > > Although I dont see any problem on arm64 after this change.
