mm/memory-failure: fix VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(PagePoisoned(page)) when unpoison memory
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mm/memory-failure: fix VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(PagePoisoned(page)) when unpoison memory When I did memory failure tests, below panic occurs: page dumped because: VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(PagePoisoned(page)) kernel BUG at include/linux/page-flags.h:616!

So VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(PagePoisoned(page)) is triggered. This can be reproduced by below steps: 1.Offline memory block: echo offline > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory12/state 2.Get offlined memory pfn: page-types -b n -rlN 3.Write pfn to unpoison-pfn echo <pfn> > /sys/kernel/debug/hwpoison/unpoison-pfn This scenario can be identified by pfn_to_online_page() returning NULL. And ZONE_DEVICE pages are never expected, so we can simply fail if pfn_to_online_page() == NULL to fix the bug.

So VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(PagePoisoned(page)) is\ntriggered.  This can be reproduced by below steps:\n\n1.Offline memory block:\n\n echo offline \u003e /sys/devices/system/memory/memory12/state\n\n2.Get offlined memory pfn:\n\n page-types -b n -rlN\n\n3.Write pfn to unpoison-pfn\n\n echo \u003cpfn\u003e \u003e /sys/kernel/debug/hwpoison/unpoison-pfn\n\nThis scenario can be identified by pfn_to_online_page() returning NULL. \nAnd ZONE_DEVICE pages are never expected, so we can simply fail if\npfn_to_online_page() == NULL to fix the bug."
