The 'swapcache' variable is used to track whether the page is from the
swapcache or not. It can do this equally well by being the folio of the
page rather than the page itself, and this saves a number of calls to
compound_head().

Replace any vm_next use with vma_find().
Update free_pgtables(), unmap_vmas(), and zap_page_range() to use the
maple tree.
Use the new free_pgtables() and unmap_vmas() in do_mas_align_munmap(). At
the same time, alter the loop to be more compact.
Now that free_pgtables() and unmap_vmas() take a maple tree as an
argument, rearrange do_mas_align_munmap() to use the new tree to hold the
vmas to remove.
Remove __vma_link_list() and __vma_unlink_list() as they are exclusively
used to update the linked list.
Drop linked list update from __insert_vm_struct().
Rework validation of tree as it was depending on the linked list.

With memory tier support we can have memory only NUMA nodes in the top
tier from which we want to avoid promotion tracking NUMA faults. Update
node_is_toptier to work with memory tiers. All NUMA nodes are by default
top tier nodes. With lower(slower) memory tiers added we consider all
memory tiers above a memory tier having CPU NUMA nodes as a top memory
tier

Evictable pages are divided into multiple generations for each lruvec.
The youngest generation number is stored in lrugen->max_seq for both
anon and file types as they are aged on an equal footing. The oldest
generation numbers are stored in lrugen->min_seq[] separately for anon
and file types as clean file pages can be evicted regardless of swap
constraints. These three variables are monotonically increasing.
Generation numbers are truncated into order_base_2(MAX_NR_GENS+1) bits
in order to fit into the gen counter in folio->flags. Each truncated
generation number is an index to lrugen->lists[]. The sliding window
technique is used to track at least MIN_NR_GENS and at most
MAX_NR_GENS generations. The gen counter stores a value within [1,
MAX_NR_GENS] while a page is on one of lrugen->lists[]. Otherwise it
stores 0.
There are two conceptually independent procedures: "the aging", which
produces young generations, and "the eviction", which consumes old
generations. They form a closed-loop system, i.e., "the page reclaim".
Both procedures can be invoked from userspace for the purposes of working
set estimation and proactive reclaim. These techniques are commonly used
to optimize job scheduling (bin packing) in data centers [1][2].
To avoid confusion, the terms "hot" and "cold" will be applied to the
multi-gen LRU, as a new convention; the terms "active" and "inactive" will
be applied to the active/inactive LRU, as usual.
The protection of hot pages and the selection of cold pages are based
on page access channels and patterns. There are two access channels:
one through page tables and the other through file descriptors. The
protection of the former channel is by design stronger because:
1. The uncertainty in determining the access patterns of the former
channel is higher due to the approximation of the accessed bit.
2. The cost of evicting the former channel is higher due to the TLB
flushes required and the likelihood of encountering the dirty bit.
3. The penalty of underprotecting the former channel is higher because
applications usually do not prepare themselves for major page
faults like they do for blocked I/O. E.g., GUI applications
commonly use dedicated I/O threads to avoid blocking rendering
threads.
There are also two access patterns: one with temporal locality and the
other without. For the reasons listed above, the former channel is
assumed to follow the former pattern unless VM_SEQ_READ or VM_RAND_READ is
present; the latter channel is assumed to follow the latter pattern unless
outlying refaults have been observed [3][4].
The next patch will address the "outlying refaults". Three macros, i.e.,
LRU_REFS_WIDTH, LRU_REFS_PGOFF and LRU_REFS_MASK, used later are added in
this patch to make the entire patchset less diffy.
A page is added to the youngest generation on faulting. The aging needs
to check the accessed bit at least twice before handing this page over to
the eviction. The first check takes care of the accessed bit set on the
initial fault; the second check makes sure this page has not been used
since then. This protocol, AKA second chance, requires a minimum of two
generations, hence MIN_NR_GENS.

Patch series "Multi-Gen LRU Framework", v14.
What's new
==========
1. OpenWrt, in addition to Android, Arch Linux Zen, Armbian, ChromeOS,
Liquorix, post-factum and XanMod, is now shipping MGLRU on 5.15.
2. Fixed long-tailed direct reclaim latency seen on high-memory (TBs)
machines. The old direct reclaim backoff, which tries to enforce a
minimum fairness among all eligible memcgs, over-swapped by about
(total_mem>>DEF_PRIORITY)-nr_to_reclaim. The new backoff, which
pulls the plug on swapping once the target is met, trades some
fairness for curtailed latency:
https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220918080010.2920238-10-yuzhao@google.com/
3. Fixed minior build warnings and conflicts. More comments and nits.
TLDR
====
The current page reclaim is too expensive in terms of CPU usage and it
often makes poor choices about what to evict. This patchset offers an
alternative solution that is performant, versatile and
straightforward.

Benchmark results
=================
Independent lab results
-----------------------
Based on the popularity of searches [01] and the memory usage in
Google's public cloud, the most popular open-source memory-hungry
applications, in alphabetical order, are:
Apache Cassandra Memcached
Apache Hadoop MongoDB
Apache Spark PostgreSQL
MariaDB (MySQL) Redis
An independent lab evaluated MGLRU with the most widely used benchmark
suites for the above applications. They posted 960 data points along
with kernel metrics and perf profiles collected over more than 500
hours of total benchmark time. Their final reports show that, with 95%
confidence intervals (CIs), the above applications all performed
significantly better for at least part of their benchmark matrices.
On 5.14:
1. Apache Spark [02] took 95% CIs [9.28, 11.19]% and [12.20, 14.93]%
less wall time to sort three billion random integers, respectively,
under the medium- and the high-concurrency conditions, when
overcommitting memory. There were no statistically significant
changes in wall time for the rest of the benchmark matrix.
2. MariaDB [03] achieved 95% CIs [5.24, 10.71]% and [20.22, 25.97]%

for sequential access, random access and Gaussian (distribution)
access, when THP=always; 95% CIs [13.85, 15.97]% and
[23.94, 29.92]% more OPS, respectively, for random access and
Gaussian access, when THP=never. There were no statistically
significant changes in OPS for the rest of the benchmark matrix.
4. MongoDB [05] achieved 95% CIs [2.23, 3.44]%, [6.97, 9.73]% and
[2.16, 3.55]% more operations per second (OPS), respectively, for
exponential (distribution) access, random access and Zipfian
(distribution) access, when underutilizing memory; 95% CIs
[8.83, 10.03]%, [21.12, 23.14]% and [5.53, 6.46]% more OPS,
respectively, for exponential access, random access and Zipfian
access, when overcommitting memory.
On 5.15:
5. Apache Cassandra [06] achieved 95% CIs [1.06, 4.10]%, [1.94, 5.43]%
and [4.11, 7.50]% more operations per second (OPS), respectively,

(distribution) access, when swap was off; 95% CIs [0.50, 2.60]%,
[6.51, 8.77]% and [3.29, 6.75]% more OPS, respectively, for
exponential access, random access and Zipfian access, when swap was
on.
6. Apache Hadoop [07] took 95% CIs [5.31, 9.69]% and [2.02, 7.86]%
less average wall time to finish twelve parallel TeraSort jobs,
respectively, under the medium- and the high-concurrency
conditions, when swap was on. There were no statistically
significant changes in average wall time for the rest of the
benchmark matrix.
7. PostgreSQL [08] achieved 95% CI [1.75, 6.42]% more transactions per
minute (TPM) under the high-concurrency condition, when swap was
off; 95% CIs [12.82, 18.69]% and [22.70, 46.86]% more TPM,
respectively, under the medium- and the high-concurrency
conditions, when swap was on. There were no statistically
significant changes in TPM for the rest of the benchmark matrix.
8. Redis [09] achieved 95% CIs [0.58, 5.94]%, [6.55, 14.58]% and
[11.47, 19.36]% more total operations per second (OPS),
respectively, for sequential access, random access and Gaussian
(distribution) access, when THP=always; 95% CIs [1.27, 3.54]%,
[10.11, 14.81]% and [8.75, 13.64]% more total OPS, respectively,
for sequential access, random access and Gaussian access, when
THP=never.

Read-world applications
=======================
Third-party testimonials
------------------------
Konstantin reported [11]:
I have Archlinux with 8G RAM + zswap + swap. While developing, I
have lots of apps opened such as multiple LSP-servers for different
langs, chats, two browsers, etc... Usually, my system gets quickly
to a point of SWAP-storms, where I have to kill LSP-servers,
restart browsers to free memory, etc, otherwise the system lags
heavily and is barely usable.
1.5 day ago I migrated from 5.11.15 kernel to 5.12 + the LRU
patchset, and I started up by opening lots of apps to create memory
pressure, and worked for a day like this. Till now I had not a
single SWAP-storm, and mind you I got 3.4G in SWAP. I was never
getting to the point of 3G in SWAP before without a single
SWAP-storm.
Vaibhav from IBM reported [12]:
In a synthetic MongoDB Benchmark, seeing an average of ~19%
throughput improvement on POWER10(Radix MMU + 64K Page Size) with
MGLRU patches on top of 5.16 kernel for MongoDB + YCSB across
three different request distributions, namely, Exponential, Uniform
and Zipfan.
Shuang from U of Rochester reported [13]:
With the MGLRU, fio achieved 95% CIs [38.95, 40.26]%, [4.12, 6.64]%
and [9.26, 10.36]% higher throughput, respectively, for random
access, Zipfian (distribution) access and Gaussian (distribution)
access, when the average number of jobs per CPU is 1; 95% CIs
[42.32, 49.15]%, [9.44, 9.89]% and [20.99, 22.86]% higher
throughput, respectively, for random access, Zipfian access and
Gaussian access, when the average number of jobs per CPU is 2.
Daniel from Michigan Tech reported [14]:
With Memcached allocating ~100GB of byte-addressable Optante,
performance improvement in terms of throughput (measured as queries
per second) was about 10% for a series of workloads.
Large-scale deployments
-----------------------
We've rolled out MGLRU to tens of millions of ChromeOS users and
about a million Android users. Google's fleetwide profiling [15] shows
an overall 40% decrease in kswapd CPU usage, in addition to
improvements in other UX metrics, e.g., an 85% decrease in the number
of low-memory kills at the 75th percentile and an 18% decrease in
app launch time at the 50th percentile.
The downstream kernels that have been using MGLRU include:
1. Android [16]
2. Arch Linux Zen [17]
3. Armbian [18]
4. ChromeOS [19]
5. Liquorix [20]
6. OpenWrt [21]

Summary
=======
The facts are:
1. The independent lab results and the real-world applications
indicate substantial improvements; there are no known regressions.
2. Thrashing prevention, working set estimation and proactive reclaim
work out of the box; there are no equivalent solutions.
3. There is a lot of new code; no smaller changes have been
demonstrated similar effects.
Our options, accordingly, are:
1. Given the amount of evidence, the reported improvements will likely
materialize for a wide range of workloads.
2. Gauging the interest from the past discussions, the new features
will likely be put to use for both personal computers and data
centers.
3. Based on Google's track record, the new code will likely be well
maintained in the long term. It'd be more difficult if not
impossible to achieve similar effects with other approaches.
This patch (of 14):
Some architectures automatically set the accessed bit in PTEs, e.g., x86
and arm64 v8.2. On architectures that do not have this capability,
clearing the accessed bit in a PTE usually triggers a page fault following
the TLB miss of this PTE (to emulate the accessed bit).
Being aware of this capability can help make better decisions, e.g.,
whether to spread the work out over a period of time to reduce bursty page
faults when trying to clear the accessed bit in many PTEs.
Note that theoretically this capability can be unreliable, e.g.,
hotplugged CPUs might be different from builtin ones. Therefore it should
not be used in architecture-independent code that involves correctness,
e.g., to determine whether TLB flushes are required (in combination with
the accessed bit).

Linux v5.11 does not have the bug, "git bisect" finds the first bad commit:
f9ce0be71d ("mm: Cleanup faultaround and finish_fault() codepaths")
Before the commit update_mmu_cache() was called during a call to
filemap_map_pages() as well as finish_fault(). After the commit
finish_fault() lacks it.
Bring back update_mmu_cache() to finish_fault() to fix the bug.
Also call update_mmu_tlb() only when returning VM_FAULT_NOPAGE to more
closely reproduce the code of alloc_set_pte() function that existed before
the commit.
On many platforms update_mmu_cache() is nop:
x86, see arch/x86/include/asm/pgtable
ARMv6+, see arch/arm/include/asm/tlbflush.h
So, it seems, few users ran into this bug.

Patch series "memory tiering: hot page selection", v4.
To optimize page placement in a memory tiering system with NUMA balancing,
the hot pages in the slow memory nodes need to be identified.
Essentially, the original NUMA balancing implementation selects the mostly
recently accessed (MRU) pages to promote. But this isn't a perfect
algorithm to identify the hot pages. Because the pages with quite low
access frequency may be accessed eventually given the NUMA balancing page
table scanning period could be quite long (e.g. 60 seconds). So in this
patchset, we implement a new hot page identification algorithm based on
the latency between NUMA balancing page table scanning and hint page
fault. Which is a kind of mostly frequently accessed (MFU) algorithm.
In NUMA balancing memory tiering mode, if there are hot pages in slow
memory node and cold pages in fast memory node, we need to promote/demote
hot/cold pages between the fast and cold memory nodes.
A choice is to promote/demote as fast as possible. But the CPU cycles and
memory bandwidth consumed by the high promoting/demoting throughput will
hurt the latency of some workload because of accessing inflating and slow
memory bandwidth contention.
A way to resolve this issue is to restrict the max promoting/demoting
throughput. It will take longer to finish the promoting/demoting. But
the workload latency will be better. This is implemented in this patchset
as the page promotion rate limit mechanism.
The promotion hot threshold is workload and system configuration
dependent. So in this patchset, a method to adjust the hot threshold
automatically is implemented. The basic idea is to control the number of
the candidate promotion pages to match the promotion rate limit.
We used the pmbench memory accessing benchmark tested the patchset on a
2-socket server system with DRAM and PMEM installed. The test results are
as follows,
pmbench score promote rate
(accesses/s) MB/s
------------- ------------
base 146887704.1 725.6
hot selection 165695601.2 544.0
rate limit 162814569.8 165.2
auto adjustment 170495294.0 136.9
From the results above,
With hot page selection patch [1/3], the pmbench score increases about
12.8%, and promote rate (overhead) decreases about 25.0%, compared with
base kernel.
With rate limit patch [2/3], pmbench score decreases about 1.7%, and
promote rate decreases about 69.6%, compared with hot page selection
patch.
With threshold auto adjustment patch [3/3], pmbench score increases about
4.7%, and promote rate decrease about 17.1%, compared with rate limit
patch.
Baolin helped to test the patchset with MySQL on a machine which contains
1 DRAM node (30G) and 1 PMEM node (126G).
sysbench /usr/share/sysbench/oltp_read_write.lua \
......
--tables=200 \
--table-size=1000000 \
--report-interval=10 \
--threads=16 \
--time=120
The tps can be improved about 5%.
This patch (of 3):
To optimize page placement in a memory tiering system with NUMA balancing,
the hot pages in the slow memory node need to be identified. Essentially,
the original NUMA balancing implementation selects the mostly recently
accessed (MRU) pages to promote. But this isn't a perfect algorithm to
identify the hot pages. Because the pages with quite low access frequency
may be accessed eventually given the NUMA balancing page table scanning
period could be quite long (e.g. 60 seconds). The most frequently
accessed (MFU) algorithm is better.
So, in this patch we implemented a better hot page selection algorithm.
Which is based on NUMA balancing page table scanning and hint page fault
as follows,
- When the page tables of the processes are scanned to change PTE/PMD
to be PROT_NONE, the current time is recorded in struct page as scan
time.
- When the page is accessed, hint page fault will occur. The scan
time is gotten from the struct page. And The hint page fault
latency is defined as
hint page fault time - scan time
The shorter the hint page fault latency of a page is, the higher the
probability of their access frequency to be higher. So the hint page
fault latency is a better estimation of the page hot/cold.
It's hard to find some extra space in struct page to hold the scan time.
Fortunately, we can reuse some bits used by the original NUMA balancing.
NUMA balancing uses some bits in struct page to store the page accessing
CPU and PID (referring to page_cpupid_xchg_last()). Which is used by the
multi-stage node selection algorithm to avoid to migrate pages shared
accessed by the NUMA nodes back and forth. But for pages in the slow
memory node, even if they are shared accessed by multiple NUMA nodes, as
long as the pages are hot, they need to be promoted to the fast memory
node. So the accessing CPU and PID information are unnecessary for the
slow memory pages. We can reuse these bits in struct page to record the
scan time. For the fast memory pages, these bits are used as before.
For the hot threshold, the default value is 1 second, which works well in
our performance test. All pages with hint page fault latency < hot
threshold will be considered hot.
It's hard for users to determine the hot threshold. So we don't provide a
kernel ABI to set it, just provide a debugfs interface for advanced users
to experiment. We will continue to work on a hot threshold automatic
adjustment mechanism.
The downside of the above method is that the response time to the workload
hot spot changing may be much longer. For example,
- A previous cold memory area becomes hot
- The hint page fault will be triggered. But the hint page fault
latency isn't shorter than the hot threshold. So the pages will
not be promoted.
- When the memory area is scanned again, maybe after a scan period,
the hint page fault latency measured will be shorter than the hot
threshold and the pages will be promoted.
To mitigate this, if there are enough free space in the fast memory node,
the hot threshold will not be used, all pages will be promoted upon the
hint page fault for fast response.
Thanks Zhong Jiang reported and tested the fix for a bug when disabling
memory tiering mode dynamically.

MADV_COLLAPSE is not coupled to the kernel-oriented sysfs THP settings[1].
hugepage_vma_check() is the authority on determining if a VMA is eligible
for THP allocation/collapse, and currently enforces the sysfs THP
settings. Add a flag to disable these checks. For now, only apply this
arg to anon and file, which use /sys/kernel/transparent_hugepage/enabled.
We can expand this to shmem, which uses
/sys/kernel/transparent_hugepage/shmem_enabled, later.
Use this flag in collapse_pte_mapped_thp() where previously the VMA flags
passed to hugepage_vma_check() were OR'd with VM_HUGEPAGE to elide the
VM_HUGEPAGE check in "madvise" THP mode. Prior to "mm: khugepaged: check
THP flag in hugepage_vma_check()", this check also didn't check "never"
THP mode. As such, this restores the previous behavior of
collapse_pte_mapped_thp() where sysfs THP settings are ignored. See
comment in code for justification why this is OK.

We have an application with a lot of threads that use a shared mmap backed
by tmpfs mounted with -o huge=within_size. This application started
leaking loads of huge pages when we upgraded to a recent kernel.
Using the page ref tracepoints and a BPF program written by Tejun Heo we
were able to determine that these pages would have multiple refcounts from
the page fault path, but when it came to unmap time we wouldn't drop the
number of refs we had added from the faults.
I wrote a reproducer that mmap'ed a file backed by tmpfs with -o
huge=always, and then spawned 20 threads all looping faulting random
offsets in this map, while using madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) randomly for huge
page aligned ranges. This very quickly reproduced the problem.
The problem here is that we check for the case that we have multiple
threads faulting in a range that was previously unmapped. One thread maps
the PMD, the other thread loses the race and then returns 0. However at
this point we already have the page, and we are no longer putting this
page into the processes address space, and so we leak the page. We
actually did the correct thing prior to f9ce0be71d, however it looks
like Kirill copied what we do in the anonymous page case. In the
anonymous page case we don't yet have a page, so we don't have to drop a
reference on anything. Previously we did the correct thing for file based
faults by returning VM_FAULT_NOPAGE so we correctly drop the reference on
the page we faulted in.
Fix this by returning VM_FAULT_NOPAGE in the pmd_devmap_trans_unstable()
case, this makes us drop the ref on the page properly, and now my
reproducer no longer leaks the huge pages.

Lazy page table copying at fork time was introduced with commit
d992895ba2 ("[PATCH] Lazy page table copies in fork()"). At the time,
hugetlb was very new and did not support page faulting. As a result, it
was excluded. When full page fault support was added for hugetlb, the
exclusion was not removed.
Simply remove the check that prevents lazy copying of hugetlb page tables
at fork. Of course, like other mappings this only applies to shared
mappings.
Lazy page table copying at fork will be less advantageous for hugetlb
mappings because:
- There are fewer page table entries with hugetlb
- hugetlb pmds can be shared instead of copied
In any case, completely eliminating the copy at fork time should speed
things up.

The page fault path checks THP eligibility with __transhuge_page_enabled()
which does the similar thing as hugepage_vma_check(), so use
hugepage_vma_check() instead.
However page fault allows DAX and !anon_vma cases, so added a new flag,
in_pf, to hugepage_vma_check() to make page fault work correctly.
The in_pf flag is also used to skip shmem and file THP for page fault
since shmem handles THP in its own shmem_fault() and file THP allocation
on fault is not supported yet.
Also remove hugepage_vma_enabled() since hugepage_vma_check() is the only
caller now, it is not necessary to have a helper function.

Currently the implementation will split the PUD when a fallback is taken
inside the create_huge_pud function. This isn't where it should be done:
the splitting should be done in wp_huge_pud, just like it's done for PMDs.
Reason being that if a callback is taken during create, there is no PUD
yet so nothing to split, whereas if a fallback is taken when encountering
a write protection fault there is something to split.
It looks like this was the original intention with the commit where the
splitting was introduced, but somehow it got moved to the wrong place
between v1 and v2 of the patch series. Rebase mistake perhaps.

I observed that for each of the shared file-backed page faults, we're very
likely to retry one more time for the 1st write fault upon no page. It's
because we'll need to release the mmap lock for dirty rate limit purpose
with balance_dirty_pages_ratelimited() (in fault_dirty_shared_page()).
Then after that throttling we return VM_FAULT_RETRY.
We did that probably because VM_FAULT_RETRY is the only way we can return
to the fault handler at that time telling it we've released the mmap lock.
However that's not ideal because it's very likely the fault does not need
to be retried at all since the pgtable was well installed before the
throttling, so the next continuous fault (including taking mmap read lock,
walk the pgtable, etc.) could be in most cases unnecessary.
It's not only slowing down page faults for shared file-backed, but also add
more mmap lock contention which is in most cases not needed at all.
To observe this, one could try to write to some shmem page and look at
"pgfault" value in /proc/vmstat, then we should expect 2 counts for each
shmem write simply because we retried, and vm event "pgfault" will capture
that.
To make it more efficient, add a new VM_FAULT_COMPLETED return code just to
show that we've completed the whole fault and released the lock. It's also
a hint that we should very possibly not need another fault immediately on
this page because we've just completed it.
This patch provides a ~12% perf boost on my aarch64 test VM with a simple
program sequentially dirtying 400MB shmem file being mmap()ed and these are
the time it needs:
Before: 650.980 ms (+-1.94%)
After: 569.396 ms (+-1.38%)
I believe it could help more than that.
We need some special care on GUP and the s390 pgfault handler (for gmap
code before returning from pgfault), the rest changes in the page fault
handlers should be relatively straightforward.
Another thing to mention is that mm_account_fault() does take this new
fault as a generic fault to be accounted, unlike VM_FAULT_RETRY.
I explicitly didn't touch hmm_vma_fault() and break_ksm() because they do
not handle VM_FAULT_RETRY even with existing code, so I'm literally keeping
them as-is.

Delay accounting does not track the delay of write-protect copy. When
tasks trigger many write-protect copys(include COW and unsharing of

the impact of using KSM or fork() or GUP.

Patch series "A few fixup patches for mm", v4.
This series contains a few patches to avoid mapping random data if swap
read fails and fix lost swap bits in unuse_pte. Also we free hwpoison and
swapin error entry in madvise_free_pte_range and so on. More details can
be found in the respective changelogs.
This patch (of 5):
There is a bug in unuse_pte(): when swap page happens to be unreadable,
page filled with random data is mapped into user address space. In case
of error, a special swap entry indicating swap read fails is set to the
page table. So the swapcache page can be freed and the user won't end up
with a permanently mounted swap because a sector is bad. And if the page
is accessed later, the user process will be killed so that corrupted data
is never consumed. On the other hand, if the page is never accessed, the
user won't even notice it.

As with shmem uffd-wp special ptes, only drop the uffd-wp special swap pte
if unmapping an entire vma or synchronized such that faults can not race
with the unmap operation. This requires passing zap_flags all the way to
the lowest level hugetlb unmap routine: __unmap_hugepage_range.
In general, unmap calls originated in hugetlbfs code will pass the
ZAP_FLAG_DROP_MARKER flag as synchronization is in place to prevent
faults. The exception is hole punch which will first unmap without any
synchronization. Later when hole punch actually removes the page from the
file, it will check to see if there was a subsequent fault and if so take
the hugetlb fault mutex while unmapping again. This second unmap will
pass in ZAP_FLAG_DROP_MARKER.
The justification of "whether to apply ZAP_FLAG_DROP_MARKER flag when
unmap a hugetlb range" is (IMHO): we should never reach a state when a
page fault could errornously fault in a page-cache page that was
wr-protected to be writable, even in an extremely short period. That
could happen if e.g. we pass ZAP_FLAG_DROP_MARKER when
hugetlbfs_punch_hole() calls hugetlb_vmdelete_list(), because if a page
faults after that call and before remove_inode_hugepages() is executed,
the page cache can be mapped writable again in the small racy window, that
can cause unexpected data overwritten.

Normally we skip copy page when fork() for VM_SHARED shmem, but we can't
skip it anymore if uffd-wp is enabled on dst vma. This should only happen
when the src uffd has UFFD_FEATURE_EVENT_FORK enabled on uffd-wp shmem
vma, so that VM_UFFD_WP will be propagated onto dst vma too, then we
should copy the pgtables with uffd-wp bit and pte markers, because these
information will be lost otherwise.
Since the condition checks will become even more complicated for deciding
"whether a vma needs to copy the pgtable during fork()", introduce a
helper vma_needs_copy() for it, so everything will be clearer.

File-backed memory is prone to being unmapped at any time. It means all
information in the pte will be dropped, including the uffd-wp flag.
To persist the uffd-wp flag, we'll use the pte markers. This patch
teaches the zap code to understand uffd-wp and know when to keep or drop
the uffd-wp bit.
Add a new flag ZAP_FLAG_DROP_MARKER and set it in zap_details when we
don't want to persist such an information, for example, when destroying
the whole vma, or punching a hole in a shmem file. For the rest cases we
should never drop the uffd-wp bit, or the wr-protect information will get
lost.
The new ZAP_FLAG_DROP_MARKER needs to be put into mm.h rather than
memory.c because it'll be further referenced in hugetlb files later.

File-backed memories are prone to unmap/swap so the ptes are always
unstable, because they can be easily faulted back later using the page
cache. This could lead to uffd-wp getting lost when unmapping or swapping
out such memory. One example is shmem. PTE markers are needed to store
those information.
This patch prepares it by handling uffd-wp pte markers first it is applied
elsewhere, so that the page fault handler can recognize uffd-wp pte
markers.
The handling of uffd-wp pte markers is similar to missing fault, it's just
that we'll handle this "missing fault" when we see the pte markers,
meanwhile we need to make sure the marker information is kept during
processing the fault.
This is a slow path of uffd-wp handling, because zapping of wr-protected
shmem ptes should be rare. So far it should only trigger in two
conditions:
(1) When trying to punch holes in shmem_fallocate(), there is an
optimization to zap the pgtables before evicting the page.
(2) When swapping out shmem pages.
Because of this, the page fault handling is simplifed too by not sending
the wr-protect message in the 1st page fault, instead the page will be
installed read-only, so the uffd-wp message will be generated in the next
fault, which will trigger the do_wp_page() path of general uffd-wp
handling.
Disable fault-around for all uffd-wp registered ranges for extra safety
just like uffd-minor fault, and clean the code up.

This patch allows do_fault() to trigger on !pte_none() cases too. This
prepares for the pte markers to be handled by do_fault() just like none
pte.
To achieve this, instead of unconditionally check against pte_none() in
finish_fault(), we may hit the case that the orig_pte was some pte marker
so what we want to do is to replace the pte marker with some valid pte
entry. Then if orig_pte was set we'd want to check the current *pte
(under pgtable lock) against orig_pte rather than none pte.
Right now there's no solid way to safely reference orig_pte because when
pmd is not allocated handle_pte_fault() will not initialize orig_pte, so
it's not safe to reference it.
There's another solution proposed before this patch to do pte_clear() for
vmf->orig_pte for pmd==NULL case, however it turns out it'll break arm32
because arm32 could have assumption that pte_t* pointer will always reside
on a real ram32 pgtable, not any kernel stack variable.
To solve this, we add a new flag FAULT_FLAG_ORIG_PTE_VALID, and it'll be
set along with orig_pte when there is valid orig_pte, or it'll be cleared

It'll be updated every time we call handle_pte_fault(), so e.g. if a page
fault retry happened it'll be properly updated along with orig_pte.

This patch still does not use pte marker in any way, however it teaches
the core mm about the pte marker idea.
For example, handle_pte_marker() is introduced that will parse and handle
all the pte marker faults.
Many of the places are more about commenting it up - so that we know
there's the possibility of pte marker showing up, and why we don't need
special code for the cases.

swap_readpage() is given one page at a time, but may be called repeatedly
in succession.
For block-device swap-space, the blk_plug functionality allows the
multiple pages to be combined together at lower layers. That cannot be
used for SWP_FS_OPS as blk_plug may not exist - it is only active when
CONFIG_BLOCK=y. Consequently all swap reads over NFS are single page
reads.
With this patch we pass in a pointer-to-pointer when swap_readpage can
store state between calls - much like the effect of blk_plug. After
calling swap_readpage() some number of times, the state will be passed to
swap_read_unplug() which can submit the combined request.

Patch series "MM changes to improve swap-over-NFS support".
Assorted improvements for swap-via-filesystem.
This is a resend of these patches, rebased on current HEAD. The only
substantial changes is that swap_dirty_folio has replaced
swap_set_page_dirty.
Currently swap-via-fs (SWP_FS_OPS) doesn't work for any filesystem. It
has previously worked for NFS but that broke a few releases back. This
series changes to use a new ->swap_rw rather than ->readpage and
->direct_IO. It also makes other improvements.
There is a companion series already in linux-next which fixes various
issues with NFS. Once both series land, a final patch is needed which
changes NFS over to use ->swap_rw.
This patch (of 10):
Many functions declared in include/linux/swap.h are only used within mm/
Create a new "mm/swap.h" and move some of these declarations there.
Remove the redundant 'extern' from the function declarations.

Patch series "mm: COW fixes part 3: reliable GUP R/W FOLL_GET of anonymous pages", v2.
This series fixes memory corruptions when a GUP R/W reference (FOLL_WRITE
| FOLL_GET) was taken on an anonymous page and COW logic fails to detect
exclusivity of the page to then replacing the anonymous page by a copy in
the page table: The GUP reference lost synchronicity with the pages mapped
into the page tables. This series focuses on x86, arm64, s390x and
ppc64/book3s -- other architectures are fairly easy to support by
implementing __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SWP_EXCLUSIVE.
This primarily fixes the O_DIRECT memory corruptions that can happen on
concurrent swapout, whereby we lose DMA reads to a page (modifying the
user page by writing to it).
O_DIRECT currently uses FOLL_GET for short-term (!FOLL_LONGTERM) DMA
from/to a user page. In the long run, we want to convert it to properly
use FOLL_PIN, and John is working on it, but that might take a while and
might not be easy to backport. In the meantime, let's restore what used
to work before we started modifying our COW logic: make R/W FOLL_GET
references reliable as long as there is no fork() after GUP involved.
This is just the natural follow-up of part 2, that will also further
reduce "wrong COW" on the swapin path, for example, when we cannot remove
a page from the swapcache due to concurrent writeback, or if we have two
threads faulting on the same swapped-out page. Fixing O_DIRECT is just a
nice side-product
This issue, including other related COW issues, has been summarized in [3]
under 2):
"
2. Intra Process Memory Corruptions due to Wrong COW (FOLL_GET)
It was discovered that we can create a memory corruption by reading a
file via O_DIRECT to a part (e.g., first 512 bytes) of a page,
concurrently writing to an unrelated part (e.g., last byte) of the same
page, and concurrently write-protecting the page via clear_refs
SOFTDIRTY tracking [6].
For the reproducer, the issue is that O_DIRECT grabs a reference of the
target page (via FOLL_GET) and clear_refs write-protects the relevant
page table entry. On successive write access to the page from the
process itself, we wrongly COW the page when resolving the write fault,
resulting in a loss of synchronicity and consequently a memory corruption.
While some people might think that using clear_refs in this combination
is a corner cases, it turns out to be a more generic problem unfortunately.
For example, it was just recently discovered that we can similarly
create a memory corruption without clear_refs, simply by concurrently
swapping out the buffer pages [7]. Note that we nowadays even use the
swap infrastructure in Linux without an actual swap disk/partition: the
prime example is zram which is enabled as default under Fedora [10].
The root issue is that a write-fault on a page that has additional
references results in a COW and thereby a loss of synchronicity
and consequently a memory corruption if two parties believe they are
referencing the same page.
"
We don't particularly care about R/O FOLL_GET references: they were never
reliable and O_DIRECT doesn't expect to observe modifications from a page
after DMA was started.
Note that:
* this only fixes the issue on x86, arm64, s390x and ppc64/book3s
("enterprise architectures"). Other architectures have to implement
__HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SWP_EXCLUSIVE to achieve the same.
* this does *not * consider any kind of fork() after taking the reference:
fork() after GUP never worked reliably with FOLL_GET.
* Not losing PG_anon_exclusive during swapout was the last remaining
piece. KSM already makes sure that there are no other references on
a page before considering it for sharing. Page migration maintains
PG_anon_exclusive and simply fails when there are additional references
(freezing the refcount fails). Only swapout code dropped the
PG_anon_exclusive flag because it requires more work to remember +
restore it.
With this series in place, most COW issues of [3] are fixed on said
architectures. Other architectures can implement
__HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SWP_EXCLUSIVE fairly easily.

This patch (of 8):
Currently, we clear PG_anon_exclusive in try_to_unmap() and forget about
it. We do this, to keep fork() logic on swap entries easy and efficient:
for example, if we wouldn't clear it when unmapping, we'd have to lookup
the page in the swapcache for each and every swap entry during fork() and
clear PG_anon_exclusive if set.
Instead, we want to store that information directly in the swap pte,
protected by the page table lock, similarly to how we handle
SWP_MIGRATION_READ_EXCLUSIVE for migration entries. However, for actual
swap entries, we don't want to mess with the swap type (e.g., still one
bit) because it overcomplicates swap code.
In try_to_unmap(), we already reject to unmap in case the page might be
pinned, because we must not lose PG_anon_exclusive on pinned pages ever.
Checking if there are other unexpected references reliably *before*
completely unmapping a page is unfortunately not really possible: THP
heavily overcomplicate the situation. Once fully unmapped it's easier --
we, for example, make sure that there are no unexpected references *after*
unmapping a page before starting writeback on that page.
So, we currently might end up unmapping a page and clearing
PG_anon_exclusive if that page has additional references, for example, due
to a FOLL_GET.
do_swap_page() has to re-determine if a page is exclusive, which will
easily fail if there are other references on a page, most prominently GUP
references via FOLL_GET. This can currently result in memory corruptions
when taking a FOLL_GET | FOLL_WRITE reference on a page even when fork()
is never involved: try_to_unmap() will succeed, and when refaulting the
page, it cannot be marked exclusive and will get replaced by a copy in the
page tables on the next write access, resulting in writes via the GUP
reference to the page being lost.
In an ideal world, everybody that uses GUP and wants to modify page
content, such as O_DIRECT, would properly use FOLL_PIN. However, that
conversion will take a while. It's easier to fix what used to work in the
past (FOLL_GET | FOLL_WRITE) remembering PG_anon_exclusive. In addition,
by remembering PG_anon_exclusive we can further reduce unnecessary COW in
some cases, so it's the natural thing to do.
So let's transfer the PG_anon_exclusive information to the swap pte and
store it via an architecture-dependant pte bit; use that information when
restoring the swap pte in do_swap_page() and unuse_pte(). During fork(),
we simply have to clear the pte bit and are done.
Of course, there is one corner case to handle: swap backends that don't
support concurrent page modifications while the page is under writeback.
Special case these, and drop the exclusive marker. Add a comment why that
is just fine (also, reuse_swap_page() would have done the same in the
past).
In the future, we'll hopefully have all architectures support
__HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SWP_EXCLUSIVE, such that we can get rid of the empty stubs
and the define completely. Then, we can also convert
SWP_MIGRATION_READ_EXCLUSIVE. For architectures it's fairly easy to
support: either simply use a yet unused pte bit that can be used for swap
entries, steal one from the arch type bits if they exceed 5, or steal one
from the offset bits.
Note: R/O FOLL_GET references were never really reliable, especially when
taking one on a shared page and then writing to the page (e.g., GUP after
fork()). FOLL_GET, including R/W references, were never really reliable
once fork was involved (e.g., GUP before fork(), GUP during fork()). KSM
steps back in case it stumbles over unexpected references and is,
therefore, fine.

Whenever GUP currently ends up taking a R/O pin on an anonymous page that
might be shared -- mapped R/O and !PageAnonExclusive() -- any write fault
on the page table entry will end up replacing the mapped anonymous page
due to COW, resulting in the GUP pin no longer being consistent with the
page actually mapped into the page table.
The possible ways to deal with this situation are:
(1) Ignore and pin -- what we do right now.
(2) Fail to pin -- which would be rather surprising to callers and
could break user space.
(3) Trigger unsharing and pin the now exclusive page -- reliable R/O
pins.
We want to implement 3) because it provides the clearest semantics and
allows for checking in unpin_user_pages() and friends for possible BUGs:
when trying to unpin a page that's no longer exclusive, clearly something
went very wrong and might result in memory corruptions that might be hard
to debug. So we better have a nice way to spot such issues.
To implement 3), we need a way for GUP to trigger unsharing:
FAULT_FLAG_UNSHARE. FAULT_FLAG_UNSHARE is only applicable to R/O mapped
anonymous pages and resembles COW logic during a write fault. However, in
contrast to a write fault, GUP-triggered unsharing will, for example,
still maintain the write protection.
Let's implement FAULT_FLAG_UNSHARE by hooking into the existing write
fault handlers for all applicable anonymous page types: ordinary pages,
THP and hugetlb.
* If FAULT_FLAG_UNSHARE finds a R/O-mapped anonymous page that has been
marked exclusive in the meantime by someone else, there is nothing to do.
* If FAULT_FLAG_UNSHARE finds a R/O-mapped anonymous page that's not
marked exclusive, it will try detecting if the process is the exclusive
owner. If exclusive, it can be set exclusive similar to reuse logic
during write faults via page_move_anon_rmap() and there is nothing
else to do; otherwise, we either have to copy and map a fresh,
anonymous exclusive page R/O (ordinary pages, hugetlb), or split the
THP.
This commit is heavily based on patches by Andrea.

Let's mark exclusively mapped anonymous pages with PG_anon_exclusive as
exclusive, and use that information to make GUP pins reliable and stay
consistent with the page mapped into the page table even if the page table
entry gets write-protected.
With that information at hand, we can extend our COW logic to always reuse
anonymous pages that are exclusive. For anonymous pages that might be
shared, the existing logic applies.
As already documented, PG_anon_exclusive is usually only expressive in
combination with a page table entry. Especially PTE vs. PMD-mapped
anonymous pages require more thought, some examples: due to mremap() we
can easily have a single compound page PTE-mapped into multiple page
tables exclusively in a single process -- multiple page table locks apply.
Further, due to MADV_WIPEONFORK we might not necessarily write-protect
all PTEs, and only some subpages might be pinned. Long story short: once
PTE-mapped, we have to track information about exclusivity per sub-page,
but until then, we can just track it for the compound page in the head
page and not having to update a whole bunch of subpages all of the time
for a simple PMD mapping of a THP.
For simplicity, this commit mostly talks about "anonymous pages", while
it's for THP actually "the part of an anonymous folio referenced via a
page table entry".
To not spill PG_anon_exclusive code all over the mm code-base, we let the
anon rmap code to handle all PG_anon_exclusive logic it can easily handle.
If a writable, present page table entry points at an anonymous (sub)page,
that (sub)page must be PG_anon_exclusive. If GUP wants to take a reliably
pin (FOLL_PIN) on an anonymous page references via a present page table
entry, it must only pin if PG_anon_exclusive is set for the mapped
(sub)page.
This commit doesn't adjust GUP, so this is only implicitly handled for
FOLL_WRITE, follow-up commits will teach GUP to also respect it for
FOLL_PIN without FOLL_WRITE, to make all GUP pins of anonymous pages fully
reliable.
Whenever an anonymous page is to be shared (fork(), KSM), or when
temporarily unmapping an anonymous page (swap, migration), the relevant
PG_anon_exclusive bit has to be cleared to mark the anonymous page
possibly shared. Clearing will fail if there are GUP pins on the page:
* For fork(), this means having to copy the page and not being able to
share it. fork() protects against concurrent GUP using the PT lock and
the src_mm->write_protect_seq.
* For KSM, this means sharing will fail. For swap this means, unmapping
will fail, For migration this means, migration will fail early. All
three cases protect against concurrent GUP using the PT lock and a
proper clear/invalidate+flush of the relevant page table entry.
This fixes memory corruptions reported for FOLL_PIN | FOLL_WRITE, when a
pinned page gets mapped R/O and the successive write fault ends up
replacing the page instead of reusing it. It improves the situation for
O_DIRECT/vmsplice/... that still use FOLL_GET instead of FOLL_PIN, if
fork() is *not* involved, however swapout and fork() are still
problematic. Properly using FOLL_PIN instead of FOLL_GET for these GUP
users will fix the issue for them.
I. Details about basic handling
I.1. Fresh anonymous pages
page_add_new_anon_rmap() and hugepage_add_new_anon_rmap() will mark the
given page exclusive via __page_set_anon_rmap(exclusive=1). As that is
the mechanism fresh anonymous pages come into life (besides migration code
where we copy the page->mapping), all fresh anonymous pages will start out
as exclusive.
I.2. COW reuse handling of anonymous pages
When a COW handler stumbles over a (sub)page that's marked exclusive, it
simply reuses it. Otherwise, the handler tries harder under page lock to
detect if the (sub)page is exclusive and can be reused. If exclusive,
page_move_anon_rmap() will mark the given (sub)page exclusive.
Note that hugetlb code does not yet check for PageAnonExclusive(), as it
still uses the old COW logic that is prone to the COW security issue
because hugetlb code cannot really tolerate unnecessary/wrong COW as huge
pages are a scarce resource.
I.3. Migration handling
try_to_migrate() has to try marking an exclusive anonymous page shared via
page_try_share_anon_rmap(). If it fails because there are GUP pins on the
page, unmap fails. migrate_vma_collect_pmd() and
__split_huge_pmd_locked() are handled similarly.
Writable migration entries implicitly point at shared anonymous pages.
For readable migration entries that information is stored via a new
"readable-exclusive" migration entry, specific to anonymous pages.
When restoring a migration entry in remove_migration_pte(), information
about exlusivity is detected via the migration entry type, and
RMAP_EXCLUSIVE is set accordingly for
page_add_anon_rmap()/hugepage_add_anon_rmap() to restore that information.
I.4. Swapout handling
try_to_unmap() has to try marking the mapped page possibly shared via
page_try_share_anon_rmap(). If it fails because there are GUP pins on the
page, unmap fails. For now, information about exclusivity is lost. In
the future, we might want to remember that information in the swap entry
in some cases, however, it requires more thought, care, and a way to store
that information in swap entries.
I.5. Swapin handling
do_swap_page() will never stumble over exclusive anonymous pages in the
swap cache, as try_to_migrate() prohibits that. do_swap_page() always has
to detect manually if an anonymous page is exclusive and has to set
RMAP_EXCLUSIVE for page_add_anon_rmap() accordingly.
I.6. THP handling
__split_huge_pmd_locked() has to move the information about exclusivity
from the PMD to the PTEs.
a) In case we have a readable-exclusive PMD migration entry, simply
insert readable-exclusive PTE migration entries.
b) In case we have a present PMD entry and we don't want to freeze
("convert to migration entries"), simply forward PG_anon_exclusive to
all sub-pages, no need to temporarily clear the bit.
c) In case we have a present PMD entry and want to freeze, handle it
similar to try_to_migrate(): try marking the page shared first. In
case we fail, we ignore the "freeze" instruction and simply split
ordinarily. try_to_migrate() will properly fail because the THP is
still mapped via PTEs.
When splitting a compound anonymous folio (THP), the information about
exclusivity is implicitly handled via the migration entries: no need to
replicate PG_anon_exclusive manually.
I.7. fork() handling fork() handling is relatively easy, because
PG_anon_exclusive is only expressive for some page table entry types.
a) Present anonymous pages
page_try_dup_anon_rmap() will mark the given subpage shared -- which will
fail if the page is pinned. If it failed, we have to copy (or PTE-map a
PMD to handle it on the PTE level).
Note that device exclusive entries are just a pointer at a PageAnon()
page. fork() will first convert a device exclusive entry to a present
page table and handle it just like present anonymous pages.
b) Device private entry
Device private entries point at PageAnon() pages that cannot be mapped
directly and, therefore, cannot get pinned.
page_try_dup_anon_rmap() will mark the given subpage shared, which cannot
fail because they cannot get pinned.
c) HW poison entries
PG_anon_exclusive will remain untouched and is stale -- the page table
entry is just a placeholder after all.
d) Migration entries
Writable and readable-exclusive entries are converted to readable entries:
possibly shared.
I.8. mprotect() handling
mprotect() only has to properly handle the new readable-exclusive
migration entry:
When write-protecting a migration entry that points at an anonymous page,
remember the information about exclusivity via the "readable-exclusive"
migration entry type.
II. Migration and GUP-fast
Whenever replacing a present page table entry that maps an exclusive
anonymous page by a migration entry, we have to mark the page possibly
shared and synchronize against GUP-fast by a proper clear/invalidate+flush
to make the following scenario impossible:
1. try_to_migrate() places a migration entry after checking for GUP pins
and marks the page possibly shared.
2. GUP-fast pins the page due to lack of synchronization
3. fork() converts the "writable/readable-exclusive" migration entry into a
readable migration entry
4. Migration fails due to the GUP pin (failing to freeze the refcount)
5. Migration entries are restored. PG_anon_exclusive is lost
-> We have a pinned page that is not marked exclusive anymore.
Note that we move information about exclusivity from the page to the
migration entry as it otherwise highly overcomplicates fork() and
PTE-mapping a THP.
III. Swapout and GUP-fast
Whenever replacing a present page table entry that maps an exclusive
anonymous page by a swap entry, we have to mark the page possibly shared
and synchronize against GUP-fast by a proper clear/invalidate+flush to
make the following scenario impossible:
1. try_to_unmap() places a swap entry after checking for GUP pins and
clears exclusivity information on the page.
2. GUP-fast pins the page due to lack of synchronization.
-> We have a pinned page that is not marked exclusive anymore.
If we'd ever store information about exclusivity in the swap entry,
similar to migration handling, the same considerations as in II would
apply. This is future work.

The basic question we would like to have a reliable and efficient answer
to is: is this anonymous page exclusive to a single process or might it be
shared? We need that information for ordinary/single pages, hugetlb
pages, and possibly each subpage of a THP.
Introduce a way to mark an anonymous page as exclusive, with the ultimate
goal of teaching our COW logic to not do "wrong COWs", whereby GUP pins
lose consistency with the pages mapped into the page table, resulting in
reported memory corruptions.
Most pageflags already have semantics for anonymous pages, however,
PG_mappedtodisk should never apply to pages in the swapcache, so let's
reuse that flag.
As PG_has_hwpoisoned also uses that flag on the second tail page of a
compound page, convert it to PG_error instead, which is marked as
PF_NO_TAIL, so never used for tail pages.
Use custom page flag modification functions such that we can do additional
sanity checks. The semantics we'll put into some kernel doc in the future
are:
"
PG_anon_exclusive is *usually* only expressive in combination with a
page table entry. Depending on the page table entry type it might
store the following information:
Is what's mapped via this page table entry exclusive to the
single process and can be mapped writable without further
checks? If not, it might be shared and we might have to COW.
For now, we only expect PTE-mapped THPs to make use of
PG_anon_exclusive in subpages. For other anonymous compound
folios (i.e., hugetlb), only the head page is logically mapped and
holds this information.
For example, an exclusive, PMD-mapped THP only has PG_anon_exclusive
set on the head page. When replacing the PMD by a page table full
of PTEs, PG_anon_exclusive, if set on the head page, will be set on
all tail pages accordingly. Note that converting from a PTE-mapping
to a PMD mapping using the same compound page is currently not
possible and consequently doesn't require care.
If GUP wants to take a reliable pin (FOLL_PIN) on an anonymous page,
it should only pin if the relevant PG_anon_exclusive is set. In that
case, the pin will be fully reliable and stay consistent with the pages
mapped into the page table, as the bit cannot get cleared (e.g., by
fork(), KSM) while the page is pinned. For anonymous pages that
are mapped R/W, PG_anon_exclusive can be assumed to always be set
because such pages cannot possibly be shared.
The page table lock protecting the page table entry is the primary
synchronization mechanism for PG_anon_exclusive; GUP-fast that does
not take the PT lock needs special care when trying to clear the
flag.
Page table entry types and PG_anon_exclusive:
* Present: PG_anon_exclusive applies.
* Swap: the information is lost. PG_anon_exclusive was cleared.
* Migration: the entry holds this information instead.
PG_anon_exclusive was cleared.
* Device private: PG_anon_exclusive applies.
* Device exclusive: PG_anon_exclusive applies.
* HW Poison: PG_anon_exclusive is stale and not changed.
If the page may be pinned (FOLL_PIN), clearing PG_anon_exclusive is
not allowed and the flag will stick around until the page is freed
and folio->mapping is cleared.
"
We won't be clearing PG_anon_exclusive on destructive unmapping (i.e.,
zapping) of page table entries, page freeing code will handle that when
also invalidate page->mapping to not indicate PageAnon() anymore. Letting
information about exclusivity stick around will be an important property
when adding sanity checks to unpinning code.
Note that we properly clear the flag in free_pages_prepare() via
PAGE_FLAGS_CHECK_AT_PREP for each individual subpage of a compound page,
so there is no need to manually clear the flag.

We want to mark anonymous pages exclusive, and when using
page_move_anon_rmap() we know that we are the exclusive user, as properly
documented. This is a preparation for marking anonymous pages exclusive
in page_move_anon_rmap().
In both instances, we're holding page lock and are sure that we're the
exclusive owner (page_count() == 1). hugetlb already properly uses
page_move_anon_rmap() in the write fault handler.
Note that in case of a PTE-mapped THP, we'll only end up calling this
function if the whole THP is only referenced by the single PTE mapping a
single subpage (page_count() == 1); consequently, it's fine to modify the
compound page mapping inside page_move_anon_rmap().

GUP pins on the anonymous page.
We really only care about pins on anonymous pages, because they are prone
to getting replaced in the COW handler once mapped R/O. For !anon pages
in cow-mappings (!VM_SHARED && VM_MAYWRITE) we shouldn't really care about
that, at least not that I could come up with an example.
Let's drop the is_cow_mapping() check from page_needs_cow_for_dma(), as we
know we're dealing with anonymous pages. Also, drop the handling of
pinned pages from copy_huge_pud() and add a comment if ever supporting
anonymous pages on the PUD level.
This is a preparation for tracking exclusivity of anonymous pages in the
rmap code, and disallowing marking a page shared (-> failing to duplicate)

In some cases it appears the invalidation of a hwpoisoned page fails
because the page is still mapped in another process. This can cause a
program to be continuously restarted and die when it page faults on the
page that was not invalidated. Avoid that problem by unmapping the
hwpoisoned page when we find it.
Another issue is that sometimes we end up oopsing in finish_fault, if
the code tries to do something with the now-NULL vmf->page. I did not
hit this error when submitting the previous patch because there are
several opportunities for alloc_set_pte to bail out before accessing
vmf->page, and that apparently happened on those systems, and most of
the time on other systems, too.
However, across several million systems that error does occur a handful
of times a day. It can be avoided by returning VM_FAULT_NOPAGE which
will cause do_read_fault to return before calling finish_fault.

Revert 48ec833b78 ("Revert "mm/memory.c: share the i_mmap_rwsem"") to
reinstate c8475d144a ("mm/memory.c: share the i_mmap_rwsem"): the
unmap_mapping_range family of functions do the unmapping of user pages
(ultimately via zap_page_range_single) without modifying the interval tree
itself, and unmapping races are necessarily guarded by page table lock,
thus the i_mmap_rwsem should be shared in unmap_mapping_pages() and
unmap_mapping_folio().
Commit 48ec833b78 was intended as a short-term measure, allowing the
other shared lock changes into 3.19 final, before investigating three
trinity crashes, one of which had been bisected to commit c8475d144ab:

Two of those were Bad page states: free_pages_prepare() found PG_mlocked
still set - almost certain to have been fixed by 4.4 commit b87537d9e2
("mm: rmap use pte lock not mmap_sem to set PageMlocked"). The NULL deref
on rwsem in [2]: unclear, only happened once, not bisected to c8475d144a.
No change to the i_mmap_lock_write() around __unmap_hugepage_range_final()
in unmap_single_vma(): IIRC that's a special usage, helping to serialize
hugetlbfs page table sharing, not to be dabbled with lightly. No change
to other uses of i_mmap_lock_write() by hugetlbfs.
I am not aware of any significant gains from the concurrency allowed by
this commit: it is submitted more to resolve an ancient misunderstanding.

Currently we have a different COW logic when:
* triggering a read-fault to swapin first and then trigger a write-fault
-> do_swap_page() + do_wp_page()
* triggering a write-fault to swapin
-> do_swap_page() + do_wp_page() only if we fail reuse in do_swap_page()
The COW logic in do_swap_page() is different than our reuse logic in
do_wp_page(). The COW logic in do_wp_page() -- page_count() == 1 -- makes
currently sure that we certainly don't have a remaining reference, e.g.,
via GUP, on the target page we want to reuse: if there is any unexpected
reference, we have to copy to avoid information leaks.
As do_swap_page() behaves differently, in environments with swap enabled
we can currently have an unintended information leak from the parent to
the child, similar as known from CVE-2020-29374:
1. Parent writes to anonymous page
-> Page is mapped writable and modified
2. Page is swapped out
-> Page is unmapped and replaced by swap entry
3. fork()
-> Swap entries are copied to child
4. Child pins page R/O
-> Page is mapped R/O into child
5. Child unmaps page
-> Child still holds GUP reference
6. Parent writes to page
-> Page is reused in do_swap_page()
-> Child can observe changes
Exchanging 2. and 3. should have the same effect.
Let's apply the same COW logic as in do_wp_page(), conditionally trying to
remove the page from the swapcache after freeing the swap entry, however,
before actually mapping our page. We can change the order now that we use
try_to_free_swap(), which doesn't care about the mapcount, instead of
reuse_swap_page().
To handle references from the LRU pagevecs, conditionally drain the local
LRU pagevecs when required, however, don't consider the page_count() when
deciding whether to drain to keep it simple for now.

Let's make it clearer that KSM might only have to copy a page in case we
have a page in the swapcache, not if we allocated a fresh page and
bypassed the swapcache. While at it, add a comment why this is usually
necessary and merge the two swapcache conditions.

For example, if a page just got swapped in via a read fault, the LRU
pagevecs might still hold a reference to the page. If we trigger a write
fault on such a page, the additional reference from the LRU pagevecs will
prohibit reusing the page.
Let's conditionally drain the local LRU pagevecs when we stumble over a
!PageLRU() page. We cannot easily drain remote LRU pagevecs and it might
not be desirable performance-wise. Consequently, this will only avoid
copying in some cases.
Add a simple "page_count(page) > 3" check first but keep the
"page_count(page) > 1 + PageSwapCache(page)" check in place, as we want to
minimize cases where we remove a page from the swapcache but won't be able
to reuse it, for example, because another process has it mapped R/O, to
not affect reclaim.
We cannot easily handle the following cases and we will always have to
copy:
(1) The page is referenced in the LRU pagevecs of other CPUs. We really
would have to drain the LRU pagevecs of all CPUs -- most probably
copying is much cheaper.
(2) The page is already PageLRU() but is getting moved between LRU
lists, for example, for activation (e.g., mark_page_accessed()),
deactivation (MADV_COLD), or lazyfree (MADV_FREE). We'd have to
drain mostly unconditionally, which might be bad performance-wise.
Most probably this won't happen too often in practice.
Note that there are other reasons why an anon page might temporarily not
be PageLRU(): for example, compaction and migration have to isolate LRU
pages from the LRU lists first (isolate_lru_page()), moving them to
temporary local lists and clearing PageLRU() and holding an additional
reference on the page. In that case, we'll always copy.
This change seems to be fairly effective with the reproducer [1] shared by
Nadav, as long as writeback is done synchronously, for example, using
zram. However, with asynchronous writeback, we'll usually fail to free
the swapcache because the page is still under writeback: something we
cannot easily optimize for, and maybe it's not really relevant in
practice.

Patch series "mm: COW fixes part 1: fix the COW security issue for THP and swap", v3.
This series attempts to optimize and streamline the COW logic for ordinary
anon pages and THP anon pages, fixing two remaining instances of
CVE-2020-29374 in do_swap_page() and do_huge_pmd_wp_page(): information
can leak from a parent process to a child process via anonymous pages
shared during fork().
This issue, including other related COW issues, has been summarized in [2]:
"1. Observing Memory Modifications of Private Pages From A Child Process
Long story short: process-private memory might not be as private as you
think once you fork(): successive modifications of private memory
regions in the parent process can still be observed by the child
process, for example, by smart use of vmsplice()+munmap().
The core problem is that pinning pages readable in a child process, such
as done via the vmsplice system call, can result in a child process
observing memory modifications done in the parent process the child is
not supposed to observe. [1] contains an excellent summary and [2]
contains further details. This issue was assigned CVE-2020-29374 [9].
For this to trigger, it's required to use a fork() without subsequent
exec(), for example, as used under Android zygote. Without further
details about an application that forks less-privileged child processes,
one cannot really say what's actually affected and what's not -- see the
details section the end of this mail for a short sshd/openssh analysis.
While commit 17839856fd ("gup: document and work around "COW can break
either way" issue") fixed this issue and resulted in other problems
(e.g., ptrace on pmem), commit 09854ba94c ("mm: do_wp_page()
simplification") re-introduced part of the problem unfortunately.
The original reproducer can be modified quite easily to use THP [3] and
make the issue appear again on upstream kernels. I modified it to use
hugetlb [4] and it triggers as well. The problem is certainly less
severe with hugetlb than with THP; it merely highlights that we still
have plenty of open holes we should be closing/fixing.
Regarding vmsplice(), the only known workaround is to disallow the
vmsplice() system call ... or disable THP and hugetlb. But who knows
what else is affected (RDMA? O_DIRECT?) to achieve the same goal -- in
the end, it's a more generic issue"
This security issue was first reported by Jann Horn on 27 May 2020 and it
currently affects anonymous pages during swapin, anonymous THP and hugetlb.
This series tackles anonymous pages during swapin and anonymous THP:
- do_swap_page() for handling COW on PTEs during swapin directly
- do_huge_pmd_wp_page() for handling COW on PMD-mapped THP during write
faults
With this series, we'll apply the same COW logic we have in do_wp_page()
to all swappable anon pages: don't reuse (map writable) the page in
case there are additional references (page_count() != 1). All users of
reuse_swap_page() are remove, and consequently reuse_swap_page() is
removed.
In general, we're struggling with the following COW-related issues:
(1) "missed COW": we miss to copy on write and reuse the page (map it
writable) although we must copy because there are pending references
from another process to this page. The result is a security issue.
(2) "wrong COW": we copy on write although we wouldn't have to and
shouldn't: if there are valid GUP references, they will become out
of sync with the pages mapped into the page table. We fail to detect
that such a page can be reused safely, especially if never more than
a single process mapped the page. The result is an intra process
memory corruption.
(3) "unnecessary COW": we copy on write although we wouldn't have to:
performance degradation and temporary increases swap+memory
consumption can be the result.
While this series fixes (1) for swappable anon pages, it tries to reduce
reported cases of (3) first as good and easy as possible to limit the
impact when streamlining. The individual patches try to describe in
which cases we will run into (3).
This series certainly makes (2) worse for THP, because a THP will now
get PTE-mapped on write faults if there are additional references, even
if there was only ever a single process involved: once PTE-mapped, we'll
copy each and every subpage and won't reuse any subpage as long as the
underlying compound page wasn't split.
I'm working on an approach to fix (2) and improve (3): PageAnonExclusive
to mark anon pages that are exclusive to a single process, allow GUP
pins only on such exclusive pages, and allow turning exclusive pages
shared (clearing PageAnonExclusive) only if there are no GUP pins. Anon
pages with PageAnonExclusive set never have to be copied during write
faults, but eventually during fork() if they cannot be turned shared.
The improved reuse logic in this series will essentially also be the
logic to reset PageAnonExclusive. This work will certainly take a
while, but I'm planning on sharing details before having code fully
ready.
#1-#5 can be applied independently of the rest. #6-#9 are mostly only
cleanups related to reuse_swap_page().
Notes:
* For now, I'll leave hugetlb code untouched: "unnecessary COW" might
easily break existing setups because hugetlb pages are a scarce resource
and we could just end up having to crash the application when we run out
of hugetlb pages. We have to be very careful and the security aspect with
hugetlb is most certainly less relevant than for unprivileged anon pages.
* Instead of lru_add_drain() we might actually just drain the lru_add list
or even just remove the single page of interest from the lru_add list.
This would require a new helper function, and could be added if the
conditional lru_add_drain() turn out to be a problem.
* I extended the test case already included in [1] to also test for the
newly found do_swap_page() case. I'll send that out separately once/if
this part was merged.

This patch (of 9):
Liang Zhang reported [1] that the current COW logic in do_wp_page() is
sub-optimal when it comes to swap+read fault+write fault of anonymous
pages that have a single user, visible via a performance degradation in
the redis benchmark. Something similar was previously reported [2] by
Nadav with a simple reproducer.
After we put an anon page into the swapcache and unmapped it from a single
process, that process might read that page again and refault it read-only.
If that process then writes to that page, the process is actually the
exclusive user of the page, however, the COW logic in do_co_page() won't
be able to reuse it due to the additional reference from the swapcache.
Let's optimize for pages that have been added to the swapcache but only
have an exclusive user. Try removing the swapcache reference if there is
hope that we're the exclusive user.
We will fail removing the swapcache reference in two scenarios:
(1) There are additional swap entries referencing the page: copying
instead of reusing is the right thing to do.
(2) The page is under writeback: theoretically we might be able to reuse
in some cases, however, we cannot remove the additional reference
and will have to copy.
Note that we'll only try removing the page from the swapcache when it's
highly likely that we'll be the exclusive owner after removing the page
from the swapache. As we're about to map that page writable and redirty
it, that should not affect reclaim but is rather the right thing to do.
Further, we might have additional references from the LRU pagevecs, which
will force us to copy instead of being able to reuse. We'll try handling
such references for some scenarios next. Concurrent writeback cannot be
handled easily and we'll always have to copy.
While at it, remove the superfluous page_mapcount() check: it's
implicitly covered by the page_count() for ordinary anon pages.

Userfaultfd is supposed to provide the full address (i.e., unmasked) of
the faulting access back to userspace. However, that is not the case for
quite some time.
Even running "userfaultfd_demo" from the userfaultfd man page provides the
wrong output (and contradicts the man page). Notice that
"UFFD_EVENT_PAGEFAULT event" shows the masked address (7fc5e30b3000) and
not the first read address (0x7fc5e30b300f).
Address returned by mmap() = 0x7fc5e30b3000
fault_handler_thread():
poll() returns: nready = 1; POLLIN = 1; POLLERR = 0
UFFD_EVENT_PAGEFAULT event: flags = 0; address = 7fc5e30b3000
(uffdio_copy.copy returned 4096)
Read address 0x7fc5e30b300f in main(): A
Read address 0x7fc5e30b340f in main(): A
Read address 0x7fc5e30b380f in main(): A
Read address 0x7fc5e30b3c0f in main(): A
The exact address is useful for various reasons and specifically for
prefetching decisions. If it is known that the memory is populated by
certain objects whose size is not page-aligned, then based on the faulting
address, the uffd-monitor can decide whether to prefetch and prefault the
adjacent page.
This bug has been for quite some time in the kernel: since commit
1a29d85eb0 ("mm: use vmf->address instead of of vmf->virtual_address")
vmf->virtual_address"), which dates back to 2016. A concern has been
raised that existing userspace application might rely on the old/wrong
behavior in which the address is masked. Therefore, it was suggested to
provide the masked address unless the user explicitly asks for the exact
address.
Add a new userfaultfd feature UFFD_FEATURE_EXACT_ADDRESS to direct
userfaultfd to provide the exact address. Add a new "real_address" field
to vmf to hold the unmasked address. Provide the address to userspace
accordingly.
Initialize real_address in various code-paths to be consistent with
address, even when it is not used, to be on the safe side.

Sometimes the page offlining code can leave behind a hwpoisoned clean
page cache page. This can lead to programs being killed over and over
and over again as they fault in the hwpoisoned page, get killed, and
then get re-spawned by whatever wanted to run them.
This is particularly embarrassing when the page was offlined due to
having too many corrected memory errors. Now we are killing tasks due
to them trying to access memory that probably isn't even corrupted.
This problem can be avoided by invalidating the page from the page fault
handler, which already has a branch for dealing with these kinds of
pages. With this patch we simply pretend the page fault was successful
if the page was invalidated, return to userspace, incur another page
fault, read in the file from disk (to a new memory page), and then
everything works again.

Currently we have a zap_mapping pointer maintained in zap_details, when
it is specified we only want to zap the pages that has the same mapping
with what the caller has specified.
But what we want to do is actually simpler: we want to skip zapping
private (COW-ed) pages in some cases. We can refer to
unmap_mapping_pages() callers where we could have passed in different
even_cows values. The other user is unmap_mapping_folio() where we
always want to skip private pages.
According to Hugh, we used a mapping pointer for historical reason, as
explained here:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/391aa58d-ce84-9d4-d68d-d98a9c533255@google.com/
Quoting partly from Hugh:
Which raises the question again of why I did not just use a boolean flag
there originally: aah, I think I've found why. In those days there was a
horrible "optimization", for better performance on some benchmark I guess,
which when you read from /dev/zero into a private mapping, would map the zero
page there (look up read_zero_pagealigned() and zeromap_page_range() if you
dare). So there was another category of page to be skipped along with the
anon COWs, and I didn't want multiple tests in the zap loop, so checking
check_mapping against page->mapping did both. I think nowadays you could do
it by checking for PageAnon page (or genuine swap entry) instead.
This patch replaces the zap_details.zap_mapping pointer into the even_cows
boolean, then we check it against PageAnon.

Patch series "mm: Rework zap ptes on swap entries", v5.
Patch 1 should fix a long standing bug for zap_pte_range() on
zap_details usage. The risk is we could have some swap entries skipped
while we should have zapped them.
Migration entries are not the major concern because file backed memory
always zap in the pattern that "first time without page lock, then
re-zap with page lock" hence the 2nd zap will always make sure all
migration entries are already recovered.
However there can be issues with real swap entries got skipped
errornoously. There's a reproducer provided in commit message of patch
1 for that.
Patch 2-4 are cleanups that are based on patch 1. After the whole
patchset applied, we should have a very clean view of zap_pte_range().
Only patch 1 needs to be backported to stable if necessary.
This patch (of 4):
The "details" pointer shouldn't be the token to decide whether we should
skip swap entries.
For example, when the callers specified details->zap_mapping==NULL, it
means the user wants to zap all the pages (including COWed pages), then
we need to look into swap entries because there can be private COWed
pages that was swapped out.
Skipping some swap entries when details is non-NULL may lead to wrongly
leaving some of the swap entries while we should have zapped them.
A reproducer of the problem:
===8<===
#define _GNU_SOURCE /* See feature_test_macros(7) */
#include <stdio.h>
#include <assert.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/mman.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
int page_size;
int shmem_fd;
char *buffer;
void main(void)
{
int ret;
char val;
page_size = getpagesize();
shmem_fd = memfd_create("test", 0);
assert(shmem_fd >= 0);
ret = ftruncate(shmem_fd, page_size * 2);
assert(ret == 0);
buffer = mmap(NULL, page_size * 2, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_PRIVATE, shmem_fd, 0);
assert(buffer != MAP_FAILED);
/* Write private page, swap it out */
buffer[page_size] = 1;
madvise(buffer, page_size * 2, MADV_PAGEOUT);
/* This should drop private buffer[page_size] already */
ret = ftruncate(shmem_fd, page_size);
assert(ret == 0);
/* Recover the size */
ret = ftruncate(shmem_fd, page_size * 2);
assert(ret == 0);
/* Re-read the data, it should be all zero */
val = buffer[page_size];
if (val == 0)
printf("Good\n");
else
printf("BUG\n");
}
===8<===
We don't need to touch up the pmd path, because pmd never had a issue with
swap entries. For example, shmem pmd migration will always be split into
pte level, and same to swapping on anonymous.
Add another helper should_zap_cows() so that we can also check whether we
should zap private mappings when there's no page pointer specified.
This patch drops that trick, so we handle swap ptes coherently. Meanwhile
we should do the same check upon migration entry, hwpoison entry and
genuine swap entries too.
To be explicit, we should still remember to keep the private entries if
even_cows==false, and always zap them when even_cows==true.
The issue seems to exist starting from the initial commit of git.

userfaultfd calls copy_huge_page_from_user() which does not do any cache
flushing for the target page. Then the target page will be mapped to
the user space with a different address (user address), which might have
an alias issue with the kernel address used to copy the data from the
user to.
Fix this issue by flushing dcache in copy_huge_page_from_user().

There are no remaining callers of set_fs(), so CONFIG_SET_FS
can be removed globally, along with the thread_info field and
any references to it.
This turns access_ok() into a cheaper check against TASK_SIZE_MAX.
As CONFIG_SET_FS is now gone, drop all remaining references to

Add vma argument to mlock_vma_page() and munlock_vma_page(), make them
inline functions which check (vma->vm_flags & VM_LOCKED) before calling
mlock_page() and munlock_page() in mm/mlock.c.
Add bool compound to mlock_vma_page() and munlock_vma_page(): this is
because we have understandable difficulty in accounting pte maps of THPs,
and if passed a PageHead page, mlock_page() and munlock_page() cannot
tell whether it's a pmd map to be counted or a pte map to be ignored.
Add vma arg to page_add_file_rmap() and page_remove_rmap(), like the
others, and use that to call mlock_vma_page() at the end of the page
adds, and munlock_vma_page() at the end of page_remove_rmap() (end or
beginning? unimportant, but end was easier for assertions in testing).
No page lock is required (although almost all adds happen to hold it):
delete the "Serialize with page migration" BUG_ON(!PageLocked(page))s.
Certainly page lock did serialize with page migration, but I'm having
difficulty explaining why that was ever important.
Mlock accounting on THPs has been hard to define, differed between anon
and file, involved PageDoubleMap in some places and not others, required
clear_page_mlock() at some points. Keep it simple now: just count the
pmds and ignore the ptes, there is no reason for ptes to undo pmd mlocks.
page_add_new_anon_rmap() callers unchanged: they have long been calling
lru_cache_add_inactive_or_unevictable(), which does its own VM_LOCKED
handling (it also checks for not VM_SPECIAL: I think that's overcautious,
and inconsistent with other checks, that mmap_region() already prevents
VM_LOCKED on VM_SPECIAL; but haven't quite convinced myself to change it).

Patch series "page table check", v3.
Ensure that some memory corruptions are prevented by checking at the
time of insertion of entries into user page tables that there is no
illegal sharing.
We have recently found a problem [1] that existed in kernel since 4.14.
The problem was caused by broken page ref count and led to memory
leaking from one process into another. The problem was accidentally
detected by studying a dump of one process and noticing that one page
contains memory that should not belong to this process.
There are some other page->_refcount related problems that were recently
fixed: [2], [3] which potentially could also lead to illegal sharing.
In addition to hardening refcount [4] itself, this work is an attempt to
prevent this class of memory corruption issues.
It uses a simple state machine that is independent from regular MM logic
to check for illegal sharing at time pages are inserted and removed from
page tables.

This patch (of 4):
There are a few places where we first update the entry in the user page
table, and later change the struct page to indicate that this is
anonymous or file page.
In most places, however, we first configure the page metadata and then
insert entries into the page table. Page table check, will use the
information from struct page to verify the type of entry is inserted.
Change the order in all places to first update struct page, and later to
update page table.
This means that we first do calls that may change the type of page (anon
or file):
page_move_anon_rmap
page_add_anon_rmap
do_page_add_anon_rmap
page_add_new_anon_rmap
page_add_file_rmap
hugepage_add_anon_rmap
hugepage_add_new_anon_rmap
And after that do calls that add entries to the page table:
set_huge_pte_at
set_pte_at

linux/mm_types.h should only define structure definitions, to make it
cheap to include elsewhere. The atomic_t helper function definitions
are particularly large, so it's better to move the helpers using those
into the existing linux/mm_inline.h and only include that where needed.
As a follow-up, we may want to go through all the indirect includes in
mm_types.h and reduce them as much as possible.

The smp_wmb() which is in the __pte_alloc() is used to ensure all ptes
setup is visible before the pte is made visible to other CPUs by being
put into page tables. We only need this when the pte is actually
populated, so move it to pmd_install(). __pte_alloc_kernel(),
__p4d_alloc(), __pud_alloc() and __pmd_alloc() are similar to this case.
We can also defer smp_wmb() to the place where the pmd entry is really
populated by preallocated pte. There are two kinds of user of
preallocated pte, one is filemap & finish_fault(), another is THP. The
former does not need another smp_wmb() because the smp_wmb() has been
done by pmd_install(). Fortunately, the latter also does not need
another smp_wmb() because there is already a smp_wmb() before populating
the new pte when the THP uses a preallocated pte to split a huge pmd.

Use the helper for the checks. Rename "check_mapping" into
"zap_mapping" because "check_mapping" looks like a bool but in fact it
stores the mapping itself. When it's set, we check the mapping (it must
be non-NULL). When it's cleared we skip the check, which works like the
old way.
Move the duplicated comments to the helper too.

pte_unmap_same() will always unmap the pte pointer. After the unmap,
vmf->pte will not be valid any more, we should clear it.
It was safe only because no one is accessing vmf->pte after
pte_unmap_same() returns, since the only caller of pte_unmap_same() (so
far) is do_swap_page(), where vmf->pte will in most cases be overwritten
very soon.
Directly pass in vmf into pte_unmap_same() and then we can also avoid
the long parameter list too, which should be a nice cleanup.

Pull memory folios from Matthew Wilcox:
"Add memory folios, a new type to represent either order-0 pages or the
head page of a compound page. This should be enough infrastructure to
support filesystems converting from pages to folios.
The point of all this churn is to allow filesystems and the page cache
to manage memory in larger chunks than PAGE_SIZE. The original plan
was to use compound pages like THP does, but I ran into problems with
some functions expecting only a head page while others expect the
precise page containing a particular byte.
The folio type allows a function to declare that it's expecting only a
head page. Almost incidentally, this allows us to remove various calls
to VM_BUG_ON(PageTail(page)) and compound_head().
This converts just parts of the core MM and the page cache. For 5.17,
we intend to convert various filesystems (XFS and AFS are ready; other
filesystems may make it) and also convert more of the MM and page
cache to folios. For 5.18, multi-page folios should be ready.
The multi-page folios offer some improvement to some workloads. The
80% win is real, but appears to be an artificial benchmark (postgres
startup, which isn't a serious workload). Real workloads (eg building
the kernel, running postgres in a steady state, etc) seem to benefit
between 0-10%. I haven't heard of any performance losses as a result
of this series. Nobody has done any serious performance tuning; I
imagine that tweaking the readahead algorithm could provide some more
interesting wins. There are also other places where we could choose to
create large folios and currently do not, such as writes that are
larger than PAGE_SIZE.

When handling shmem page fault the THP with corrupted subpage could be
PMD mapped if certain conditions are satisfied. But kernel is supposed
to send SIGBUS when trying to map hwpoisoned page.
There are two paths which may do PMD map: fault around and regular
fault.
Before commit f9ce0be71d ("mm: Cleanup faultaround and finish_fault()
codepaths") the thing was even worse in fault around path. The THP
could be PMD mapped as long as the VMA fits regardless what subpage is
accessed and corrupted. After this commit as long as head page is not
corrupted the THP could be PMD mapped.
In the regular fault path the THP could be PMD mapped as long as the
corrupted page is not accessed and the VMA fits.
This loophole could be fixed by iterating every subpage to check if any
of them is hwpoisoned or not, but it is somewhat costly in page fault
path.
So introduce a new page flag called HasHWPoisoned on the first tail
page. It indicates the THP has hwpoisoned subpage(s). It is set if any
subpage of THP is found hwpoisoned by memory failure and after the
refcount is bumped successfully, then cleared when the THP is freed or
split.
The soft offline path doesn't need this since soft offline handler just
marks a subpage hwpoisoned when the subpage is migrated successfully.
But shmem THP didn't get split then migrated at all.

Fix the coherency management of mmap'd data such that 3rd-party changes
become visible as soon as possible after the callback notification is
delivered by the fileserver. This is done by the following means:
(1) When we break a callback on a vnode specified by the CB.CallBack call
from the server, we queue a work item (vnode->cb_work) to go and
clobber all the PTEs mapping to that inode.
This causes the CPU to trip through the ->map_pages() and
->page_mkwrite() handlers if userspace attempts to access the page(s)
again.
(Ideally, this would be done in the service handler for CB.CallBack,
but the server is waiting for our reply before considering, and we
have a list of vnodes, all of which need breaking - and the process of
getting the mmap_lock and stripping the PTEs on all CPUs could be
quite slow.)
(2) Call afs_validate() from the ->map_pages() handler to check to see if
the file has changed and to get a new callback promise from the
server.
Also handle the fileserver telling us that it's dropping all callbacks,
possibly after it's been restarted by sending us a CB.InitCallBackState*
call by the following means:
(3) Maintain a per-cell list of afs files that are currently mmap'd
(cell->fs_open_mmaps).
(4) Add a work item to each server that is invoked if there are any open
mmaps when CB.InitCallBackState happens. This work item goes through
the aforementioned list and invokes the vnode->cb_work work item for
each one that is currently using this server.
This causes the PTEs to be cleared, causing ->map_pages() or
->page_mkwrite() to be called again, thereby calling afs_validate()
again.
I've chosen to simply strip the PTEs at the point of notification reception
rather than invalidate all the pages as well because (a) it's faster, (b)
we may get a notification for other reasons than the data being altered (in
which case we don't want to clobber the pagecache) and (c) we need to ask
the server to find out - and I don't want to wait for the reply before
holding up userspace.

It runs in two modes: in one mode, it mmaps a file, then sits in a loop
reading the first byte, printing it and sleeping for a second; in the
second mode it mmaps a file, then sits in a loop incrementing the first
byte and flushing, then printing and sleeping.
Two instances of this program can be run on different machines, one doing
the reading and one doing the writing. The reader should see the changes
made by the writer, but without this patch, they aren't because validity
checking is being done lazily - only on entry to the filesystem.
Testing the InitCallBackState change is more complicated. The server has
to be taken offline, the saved callback state file removed and then the
server restarted whilst the reading-mode program continues to run. The
client machine then has to poke the server to trigger the InitCallBackState
call.

Some devices require exclusive write access to shared virtual memory (SVM)
ranges to perform atomic operations on that memory. This requires CPU
page tables to be updated to deny access whilst atomic operations are
occurring.
In order to do this introduce a new swap entry type
(SWP_DEVICE_EXCLUSIVE). When a SVM range needs to be marked for exclusive
access by a device all page table mappings for the particular range are
replaced with device exclusive swap entries. This causes any CPU access
to the page to result in a fault.
Faults are resovled by replacing the faulting entry with the original
mapping. This results in MMU notifiers being called which a driver uses
to update access permissions such as revoking atomic access. After
notifiers have been called the device will no longer have exclusive access
to the region.
Walking of the page tables to find the target pages is handled by
get_user_pages() rather than a direct page table walk. A direct page
table walk similar to what migrate_vma_collect()/unmap() does could also
have been utilised. However this resulted in more code similar in
functionality to what get_user_pages() provides as page faulting is
required to make the PTEs present and to break COW.

Currently if copy_nonpresent_pte() returns a non-zero value it is assumed
to be a swap entry which requires further processing outside the loop in
copy_pte_range() after dropping locks. This prevents other values being
returned to signal conditions such as failure which a subsequent change
requires.
Instead make copy_nonpresent_pte() return an error code if further
processing is required and read the value for the swap entry in the main
loop under the ptl.

Patch series "Add support for SVM atomics in Nouveau", v11.
Introduction
============
Some devices have features such as atomic PTE bits that can be used to
implement atomic access to system memory. To support atomic operations to
a shared virtual memory page such a device needs access to that page which
is exclusive of the CPU. This series introduces a mechanism to
temporarily unmap pages granting exclusive access to a device.
These changes are required to support OpenCL atomic operations in Nouveau
to shared virtual memory (SVM) regions allocated with the
CL_MEM_SVM_ATOMICS clSVMAlloc flag. A more complete description of the
OpenCL SVM feature is available at
https://www.khronos.org/registry/OpenCL/specs/3.0-unified/html/
OpenCL_API.html#_shared_virtual_memory .
Implementation
==============
Exclusive device access is implemented by adding a new swap entry type
(SWAP_DEVICE_EXCLUSIVE) which is similar to a migration entry. The main
difference is that on fault the original entry is immediately restored by
the fault handler instead of waiting.
Restoring the entry triggers calls to MMU notifers which allows a device
driver to revoke the atomic access permission from the GPU prior to the
CPU finalising the entry.
Patches
=======
Patches 1 & 2 refactor existing migration and device private entry
functions.
Patches 3 & 4 rework try_to_unmap_one() by splitting out unrelated
functionality into separate functions - try_to_migrate_one() and
try_to_munlock_one().
Patch 5 renames some existing code but does not introduce functionality.
Patch 6 is a small clean-up to swap entry handling in copy_pte_range().
Patch 7 contains the bulk of the implementation for device exclusive
memory.
Patch 8 contains some additions to the HMM selftests to ensure everything
works as expected.
Patch 9 is a cleanup for the Nouveau SVM implementation.
Patch 10 contains the implementation of atomic access for the Nouveau
driver.
Testing
=======
This has been tested with upstream Mesa 21.1.0 and a simple OpenCL program
which checks that GPU atomic accesses to system memory are atomic.
Without this series the test fails as there is no way of write-protecting
the page mapping which results in the device clobbering CPU writes. For
reference the test is available at
https://ozlabs.org/~apopple/opencl_svm_atomics/
Further testing has been performed by adding support for testing exclusive
access to the hmm-tests kselftests.
This patch (of 10):
Remove multiple similar inline functions for dealing with different types
of special swap entries.
Both migration and device private swap entries use the swap offset to
store a pfn. Instead of multiple inline functions to obtain a struct page
for each swap entry type use a common function pfn_swap_entry_to_page().
Also open-code the various entry_to_pfn() functions as this results is
shorter code that is easier to understand.

Pach series "mm: thp: use generic THP migration for NUMA hinting fault", v3.
When the THP NUMA fault support was added THP migration was not supported
yet. So the ad hoc THP migration was implemented in NUMA fault handling.
Since v4.14 THP migration has been supported so it doesn't make too much
sense to still keep another THP migration implementation rather than using
the generic migration code. It is definitely a maintenance burden to keep
two THP migration implementation for different code paths and it is more
error prone. Using the generic THP migration implementation allows us
remove the duplicate code and some hacks needed by the old ad hoc
implementation.
A quick grep shows x86_64, PowerPC (book3s), ARM64 ans S390 support both
THP and NUMA balancing. The most of them support THP migration except for
S390. Zi Yan tried to add THP migration support for S390 before but it
was not accepted due to the design of S390 PMD. For the discussion,
please see: https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/4/27/953.
Per the discussion with Gerald Schaefer in v1 it is acceptible to skip
huge PMD for S390 for now.
I saw there were some hacks about gup from git history, but I didn't
figure out if they have been removed or not since I just found FOLL_NUMA
code in the current gup implementation and they seems useful.
Patch #1 ~ #2 are preparation patches.
Patch #3 is the real meat.
Patch #4 ~ #6 keep consistent counters and behaviors with before.
Patch #7 skips change huge PMD to prot_none if thp migration is not supported.
Test
----
Did some tests to measure the latency of do_huge_pmd_numa_page. The test
VM has 80 vcpus and 64G memory. The test would create 2 processes to
consume 128G memory together which would incur memory pressure to cause
THP splits. And it also creates 80 processes to hog cpu, and the memory
consumer processes are bound to different nodes periodically in order to
increase NUMA faults.
The below test script is used:
echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
# Run stress-ng for 24 hours
./stress-ng/stress-ng --vm 2 --vm-bytes 64G --timeout 24h &
PID=$!
./stress-ng/stress-ng --cpu $NR_CPUS --timeout 24h &
# Wait for vm stressors forked
sleep 5
PID_1=`pgrep -P $PID | awk 'NR == 1'`
PID_2=`pgrep -P $PID | awk 'NR == 2'`
JOB1=`pgrep -P $PID_1`
JOB2=`pgrep -P $PID_2`
# Bind load jobs to different nodes periodically to force generate
# cross node memory access
while [ -d "/proc/$PID" ]
do
taskset -apc 8 $JOB1
taskset -apc 8 $JOB2
sleep 300
taskset -apc 58 $JOB1
taskset -apc 58 $JOB2
sleep 300
done
With the above test the histogram of latency of do_huge_pmd_numa_page is
as shown below. Since the number of do_huge_pmd_numa_page varies
drastically for each run (should be due to scheduler), so I converted the
raw number to percentage.

Per the result, patched kernel is even slightly better than the base
kernel. I think this is because the lock contention against THP split is
less than base kernel due to the refactor.
To exclude the affect from THP split, I also did test w/o memory pressure.
No obvious regression is spotted. The below is the test result *w/o*
memory pressure.

This patch allows shmem-backed VMAs to be registered for minor faults.
Minor faults are appropriately relayed to userspace in the fault path, for
VMAs with the relevant flag.
This commit doesn't hook up the UFFDIO_CONTINUE ioctl for shmem-backed
minor faults, though, so userspace doesn't yet have a way to resolve such
faults.
Because of this, we also don't yet advertise this as a supported feature.
That will be done in a separate commit when the feature is fully
implemented.

We tried to do something similar in b569a17607 ("userfaultfd: wp: drop
_PAGE_UFFD_WP properly when fork") previously, but it's not doing it all
right.. A few fixes around the code path:
1. We were referencing VM_UFFD_WP vm_flags on the _old_ vma rather
than the new vma. That's overlooked in b569a17607, so it won't work
as expected. Thanks to the recent rework on fork code
(7a4830c380), we can easily get the new vma now, so switch the
checks to that.
2. Dropping the uffd-wp bit in copy_huge_pmd() could be wrong if the
huge pmd is a migration huge pmd. When it happens, instead of using
pmd_uffd_wp(), we should use pmd_swp_uffd_wp(). The fix is simply to
handle them separately.
3. Forget to carry over uffd-wp bit for a write migration huge pmd
entry. This also happens in copy_huge_pmd(), where we converted a
write huge migration entry into a read one.
4. In copy_nonpresent_pte(), drop uffd-wp if necessary for swap ptes.
5. In copy_present_page() when COW is enforced when fork(), we also
need to pass over the uffd-wp bit if VM_UFFD_WP is armed on the new
vma, and when the pte to be copied has uffd-wp bit set.
Remove the comment in copy_present_pte() about this. It won't help a huge
lot to only comment there, but comment everywhere would be an overkill.
Let's assume the commit messages would help.
