There is a race between THP unmapping and truncation, when truncate sees pmd_none() and skips the entry, after munmap's zap_huge_pmd() cleared it, but before its page_remove_rmap() gets to decrement compound_mapcount: generating false "BUG: Bad page cache" reports that the page is still mapped when deleted. This commit fixes that, but not in the way I hoped. The first attempt used try_to_unmap(page, TTU_SYNC|TTU_IGNORE_MLOCK) instead of unmap_mapping_range() in truncate_cleanup_page(): it has often been an annoyance that we usually call unmap_mapping_range() with no pages locked, but there apply it to a single locked page. try_to_unmap() looks more suitable for a single locked page. However, try_to_unmap_one() contains a VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(!pvmw.pte,page): it is used to insert THP migration entries, but not used to unmap THPs. Copy zap_huge_pmd() and add THP handling now? Perhaps, but their TLB needs are different, I'm too ignorant of the DAX cases, and couldn't decide how far to go for anon+swap. Set that aside. The second attempt took a different tack: make no change in truncate.c, but modify zap_huge_pmd() to insert an invalidated huge pmd instead of clearing it initially, then pmd_clear() between page_remove_rmap() and unlocking at the end. Nice. But powerpc blows that approach out of the water, with its serialize_against_pte_lookup(), and interesting pgtable usage. It would need serious help to get working on powerpc (with a minor optimization issue on s390 too). Set that aside. Just add an "if (page_mapped(page)) synchronize_rcu();" or other such delay, after unmapping in truncate_cleanup_page()? Perhaps, but though that's likely to reduce or eliminate the number of incidents, it would give less assurance of whether we had identified the problem correctly. This successful iteration introduces "unmap_mapping_page(page)" instead of try_to_unmap(), and goes the usual unmap_mapping_range_tree() route, with an addition to details. Then zap_pmd_range() watches for this case, and does spin_unlock(pmd_lock) if so - just like page_vma_mapped_walk() now does in the PVMW_SYNC case. Not pretty, but safe. Note that unmap_mapping_page() is doing a VM_BUG_ON(!PageLocked) to assert its interface; but currently that's only used to make sure that page->mapping is stable, and zap_pmd_range() doesn't care if the page is locked or not. Along these lines, in invalidate_inode_pages2_range() move the initial unmap_mapping_range() out from under page lock, before then calling unmap_mapping_page() under page lock if still mapped.
