NARIBAYASHI Akira 35d8a89862 mm, compaction: fix fast_isolate_around() to stay within boundaries
commit be21b32afe upstream.

Depending on the memory configuration, isolate_freepages_block() may scan
pages out of the target range and causes panic.

Panic can occur on systems with multiple zones in a single pageblock.

The reason it is rare is that it only happens in special
configurations.  Depending on how many similar systems there are, it
may be a good idea to fix this problem for older kernels as well.

The problem is that pfn as argument of fast_isolate_around() could be out
of the target range.  Therefore we should consider the case where pfn <
start_pfn, and also the case where end_pfn < pfn.

This problem should have been addressd by the commit 6e2b7044c1 ("mm,
compaction: make fast_isolate_freepages() stay within zone") but there was
an oversight.

 Case1: pfn < start_pfn

  <at memory compaction for node Y>
  |  node X's zone  | node Y's zone
  +-----------------+------------------------------...
   pageblock    ^   ^     ^
  +-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+...
                ^   ^     ^
                ^   ^      end_pfn
                ^    start_pfn = cc->zone->zone_start_pfn
                 pfn
                <---------> scanned range by "Scan After"

 Case2: end_pfn < pfn

  <at memory compaction for node X>
  |  node X's zone  | node Y's zone
  +-----------------+------------------------------...
   pageblock  ^     ^   ^
  +-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+...
              ^     ^   ^
              ^     ^    pfn
              ^      end_pfn
               start_pfn
              <---------> scanned range by "Scan Before"

It seems that there is no good reason to skip nr_isolated pages just after
given pfn.  So let perform simple scan from start to end instead of
dividing the scan into "Before" and "After".

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
