Details

Summary
  • vnode_pager_generic_getpages_done() must skip bogus_page.
  • vm_page_busy_acquire() must handle WAITFAIL before verifying the page's identity has not changed. If the caller does not provide this guarantee, it must use WAITFAIL or NOWAIT.
Test Plan

syzkaller found these bugs.

vm_page_valid() now asserts that the page is busy, but this is not the case for bogus_page. vm_pager_assert_in() contains the same hack.

This revision is now accepted and ready to land.Oct 23 2019, 3:20 PM
