The kernel currently does not mlock large folios when adding them to rmap,
stating that it is difficult to confirm that the folio is fully mapped and
safe to mlock it.
This leads to a significant undercount of Mlocked in /proc/meminfo,
causing problems in production where the stat was used to estimate system
utilization and determine if load shedding is required.
However, nowadays the caller passes a number of pages of the folio that
are getting mapped, making it easy to check if the entire folio is mapped
to the VMA.
mlock the folio on rmap if it is fully mapped to the VMA.
Mlocked in /proc/meminfo can still undercount, but the value is closer the
truth and is useful for userspace.

Currently, try_to_unmap_once() only tries to mlock small folios.
Use logic similar to folio_referenced_one() to mlock large folios: only do
this for fully mapped folios and under page table lock that protects all
page table entries.

The mlock_vma_folio() function requires the page table lock to be held in
order to safely mlock the folio. However, folio_referenced_one() mlocks a
large folios outside of the page_vma_mapped_walk() loop where the page
table lock has already been dropped.
Rework the mlock logic to use the same code path inside the loop for both
large and small folios.
Use PVMW_PGTABLE_CROSSED to detect when the folio is mapped across a page
table boundary.

Non-large folio is handled at the beginning, so it is a large folio for
sure.
Use folio_large_nr_pages() here like elsewhere.

At this point, we are in an if branch conditional on (nr <
ENTIRELY_MAPPED), and FOLIO_PAGES_MAPPED is equal to (ENTIRELY_MAPPED -
1). This means the upper bits are already cleared.
It is not necessary to mask it off.

Commit e73ad5ff2f76 ("mm, x86/mm: Make the batched unmap TLB flush API
more generic") moved the trace_tlb_flush out of mm/rmap.c and back into
x86 specific architecture, but it kept the include to the events/tlb.h
file, even though it didn't use that event.
Then another commit came in and added more events to the mm/rmap.c file
and moved the #define CREATE_TRACE_POINTS define from the x86 specific
architecture to the generic mm/rmap.h file to create both the tlb_flush
tracepoint and the new tracepoints.
But since the tlb_flush tracepoint is only x86 specific, it now creates
that tracepoint for all other architectures and this wastes approximately
5K of text and meta data that will not be used.
Remove the events/tlb.h from mm/rmap.c and add the define
CREATE_TRACE_POINTS back in the x86 code.

Commit 16f5dfbc851b ("gfp: include __GFP_NOWARN in GFP_NOWAIT") made
GFP_NOWAIT implicitly include __GFP_NOWARN.
Therefore, explicit __GFP_NOWARN combined with GFP_NOWAIT (e.g.,
`GFP_NOWAIT | __GFP_NOWARN`) is now redundant. Let's clean up these
redundant flags across subsystems.
No functional changes.

It is required to modify folio statistic after rmap changes, so it looks
reasonable to do it in __folio_add_rmap(), which is the current behavior
of __folio_remove_rmap() and folio_add_new_anon_rmap().
Call __folio_mod_stat() in __folio_add_rmap(), so that rmap adjustment
family shares the same pattern.

Patch series "Optimizations for khugepaged", v4.
If the underlying folio mapped by the ptes is large, we can process those
ptes in a batch using folio_pte_batch().
For arm64 specifically, this results in a 16x reduction in the number of
ptep_get() calls, since on a contig block, ptep_get() on arm64 will
iterate through all 16 entries to collect a/d bits. Next, ptep_clear()
will cause a TLBI for every contig block in the range via
contpte_try_unfold(). Instead, use clear_ptes() to only do the TLBI at
the first and last contig block of the range.
For split folios, there will be no pte batching; the batch size returned
by folio_pte_batch() will be 1. For pagetable split folios, the ptes will
still point to the same large folio; for arm64, this results in the
optimization described above, and for other arches, a minor improvement is
expected due to a reduction in the number of function calls and batching
atomic operations.
This patch (of 3):
Let's add variants to be used where "full" does not apply -- which will
be the majority of cases in the future. "full" really only applies if
we are about to tear down a full MM.
Use get_and_clear_ptes() in existing code, clear_ptes() users will
be added next.

Since commit 4b634918384c ("arm64/mm: Close theoretical race where stale
TLB entry remains valid"), all arches that use tlbbatch for reclaim
(arm64, riscv, x86) implement arch_flush_tlb_batched_pending() with a
flush_tlb_mm().
So let's simplify by removing the unnecessary abstraction and doing the
flush_tlb_mm() directly in flush_tlb_batched_pending(). This effectively
reverts commit db6c1f6f236d ("mm/tlbbatch: introduce
arch_flush_tlb_batched_pending()").

Many users (including upcoming ones) don't really need the flags etc, and
can live with the possible overhead of a function call.
So let's provide a basic, non-inlined folio_pte_batch(), to avoid code
bloat while still providing a variant that optimizes out all flag checks
at runtime. folio_pte_batch_flags() will get inlined into
folio_pte_batch(), optimizing out any conditionals that depend on input
flags.
folio_pte_batch() will behave like folio_pte_batch_flags() when no flags
are specified. It's okay to add new users of folio_pte_batch_flags(), but
using folio_pte_batch() if applicable is preferred.
So, before this change, folio_pte_batch() was inlined into the C file
optimized by propagating constants within the resulting object file.
With this change, we now also have a folio_pte_batch() that is optimized
by propagating all constants. But instead of having one instance per
object file, we have a single shared one.
In zap_present_ptes(), where we care about performance, the compiler
already seem to generate a call to a common inlined folio_pte_batch()
variant, shared with fork() code. So calling the new non-inlined variant
should not make a difference.
While at it, drop the "addr" parameter that is unused.

Patch series "mm: folio_pte_batch() improvements", v2.
Ever since we added folio_pte_batch() for fork() + munmap() purposes, a
lot more users appeared (and more are being proposed), and more
functionality was added.
Most of the users only need basic functionality, and could benefit from a
non-inlined version.
So let's clean up folio_pte_batch() and split it into a basic
folio_pte_batch() (no flags) and a more advanced folio_pte_batch_ext().
Using either variant will now look much cleaner.
This series will likely conflict with some changes in some (old+new)
folio_pte_batch() users, but conflicts should be trivial to resolve.
This patch (of 4):
Respecting these PTE bits is the exception, so let's invert the meaning.
With this change, most callers don't have to pass any flags. This is a
preparation for splitting folio_pte_batch() into a non-inlined variant
that doesn't consume any flags.
Long-term, we want folio_pte_batch() to probably ignore most common PTE
bits (e.g., write/dirty/young/soft-dirty) that are not relevant for most
page table walkers: uffd-wp and protnone might be bits to consider in the
future. Only walkers that care about them can opt-in to respect them.
No functional change intended.

The core kernel code is currently very inconsistent in its use of
vm_flags_t vs. unsigned long. This prevents us from changing the type of
vm_flags_t in the future and is simply not correct, so correct this.
While this results in rather a lot of churn, it is a critical
pre-requisite for a future planned change to VMA flag type.
Additionally, update VMA userland tests to account for the changes.
To make review easier and to break things into smaller parts, driver and
architecture-specific changes is left for a subsequent commit.
The code has been adjusted to cascade the changes across all calling code
as far as is needed.
We will adjust architecture-specific and driver code in a subsequent patch.
Overall, this patch does not introduce any functional change.

As pointed out by David[1], the batched unmap logic in
try_to_unmap_one() may read past the end of a PTE table when a large
folio's PTE mappings are not fully contained within a single page
table.
While this scenario might be rare, an issue triggerable from userspace
must be fixed regardless of its likelihood. This patch fixes the
out-of-bounds access by refactoring the logic into a new helper,
folio_unmap_pte_batch().
The new helper correctly calculates the safe batch size by capping the
scan at both the VMA and PMD boundaries. To simplify the code, it also
supports partial batching (i.e., any number of pages from 1 up to the
calculated safe maximum), as there is no strong reason to special-case
for fully mapped folios.

Patch series "mm: minor cleanups in rmap", v3.
Minor cleanups in mm/rmap.c:
- Rename a local variable for consistency
- Fix a typo in a comment
No functional changes.
This patch (of 2):
Rename local variable page__anon_vma in page_address_in_vma() to anon_vma.
The previous naming convention of using double underscores (__) is
unnecessary and inconsistent with typical kernel style, which uses single
underscores to denote local variables. Also updated comments to reflect
the new variable name.
Functionality unchanged.

Since the previous commit "mm/huge_memory: Adjust try_to_migrate_one() and
split_huge_pmd_locked()" has simplified the logic by leveraging the folio
verification in page_vma_mapped_walk(), this patch removes the unnecessary

Patch series "Clean up split_huge_pmd_locked() and remove unnecessary
folio pointers", v2.
The patch series enhances the folio verification by leveraging the
existing page_vma_mapped_walk() mechanism and removing redundant folio
pointer passing.
This patch (of 2):
split_huge_pmd_locked() currently performs redundant checks for migration
entries and folio validation that are already handled by the
page_vma_mapped_walk mechanism in try_to_migrate_one.
Specifically, page_vma_mapped_walk already ensures that:
- The folio is properly mapped in the given VMA area
- pmd_trans_huge, pmd_devmap, and migration entry validation are
performed
To leverage page_vma_mapped_walk's work, moving TTU_SPLIT_HUGE_PMD
handling to the while loop checking and removing these duplicate checks
from split_huge_pmd_locked.

(CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT)
Everything is in place to stop using the per-page mapcounts in large
folios: the mapcount of tail pages will always be logically 0 (-1 value),
just like it currently is for hugetlb folios already, and the page
mapcount of the head page is either 0 (-1 value) or contains a page type
(e.g., hugetlb).
Maintaining _nr_pages_mapped without per-page mapcounts is impossible, so
that one also has to go with CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT.
There are two remaining implications:
(1) Per-node, per-cgroup and per-lruvec stats of "NR_ANON_MAPPED"
("mapped anonymous memory") and "NR_FILE_MAPPED"
("mapped file memory"):
As soon as any page of the folio is mapped -- folio_mapped() -- we
now account the complete folio as mapped. Once the last page is
unmapped -- !folio_mapped() -- we account the complete folio as
unmapped.
This implies that ...
* "AnonPages" and "Mapped" in /proc/meminfo and
/sys/devices/system/node/*/meminfo
* cgroup v2: "anon" and "file_mapped" in "memory.stat" and
"memory.numa_stat"
* cgroup v1: "rss" and "mapped_file" in "memory.stat" and
"memory.numa_stat
... can now appear higher than before. But note that these folios do
consume that memory, simply not all pages are actually currently
mapped.
It's worth nothing that other accounting in the kernel (esp. cgroup
charging on allocation) is not affected by this change.
[why oh why is "anon" called "rss" in cgroup v1]
(2) Detecting partial mappings
Detecting whether anon THPs are partially mapped gets a bit more
unreliable. As long as a single MM maps such a large folio
("exclusively mapped"), we can reliably detect it. Especially before
fork() / after a short-lived child process quit, we will detect
partial mappings reliably, which is the common case.
In essence, if the average per-page mapcount in an anon THP is < 1,
we know for sure that we have a partial mapping.
However, as soon as multiple MMs are involved, we might miss detecting
partial mappings: this might be relevant with long-lived child
processes. If we have a fully-mapped anon folio before fork(), once
our child processes and our parent all unmap (zap/COW) the same pages
(but not the complete folio), we might not detect the partial mapping.
However, once the child processes quit we would detect the partial
mapping.
How relevant this case is in practice remains to be seen.
Swapout/migration will likely mitigate this.
In the future, RMAP walkers could check for that for that case
(e.g., when collecting access bits during reclaim) and simply flag
them for deferred-splitting.

Let's reuse our new MM ownership tracking infrastructure for large folios
to make folio_likely_mapped_shared() never return false negatives -- never
indicating "not mapped shared" although the folio *is* mapped shared.
With that, we can rename it to folio_maybe_mapped_shared() and get rid of
the dependency on the mapcount of the first folio page.
The semantics are now arguably clearer: no mixture of "false negatives"
and "false positives", only the remaining possibility for "false
positives".
Thoroughly document the new semantics. We might now detect that a large
folio is "maybe mapped shared" although it *no longer* is -- but once was.
Now, if more than two MMs mapped a folio at the same time, and the MM
mapping the folio exclusively at the end is not one tracked in the two
folio MM slots, we will detect the folio as "maybe mapped shared".
For anonymous folios, usually (except weird corner cases) all PTEs that
target a "maybe mapped shared" folio are R/O. As soon as a child process
would write to them (iow, actively use them), we would CoW and effectively
replace these PTEs. Most cases (below) are not expected to really matter
with large anonymous folios for this reason.
Most importantly, there will be no change at all for:
* small folios
* hugetlb folios
* PMD-mapped PMD-sized THPs (single mapping)
This change has the potential to affect existing callers of
folio_likely_mapped_shared() -> folio_maybe_mapped_shared():
(1) fs/proc/task_mmu.c: no change (hugetlb)
(2) khugepaged counts PTEs that target shared folios towards
max_ptes_shared (default: HPAGE_PMD_NR / 2), meaning we could skip a
collapse where we would have previously collapsed. This only applies
to anonymous folios and is not expected to matter in practice.
Worth noting that this change sorts out case (A) documented in
commit 1bafe96e89f0 ("mm/khugepaged: replace page_mapcount() check by
folio_likely_mapped_shared()") by removing the possibility for "false
negatives".
(3) MADV_COLD / MADV_PAGEOUT / MADV_FREE will not try splitting
PTE-mapped THPs that are considered shared but not fully covered by
the requested range, consequently not processing them.
PMD-mapped PMD-sized THP are not affected, or when all PTEs are
covered. These functions are usually only called on anon/file folios
that are exclusively mapped most of the time (no other file mappings
or no fork()), so the "false negatives" are not expected to matter in
practice.
(4) mbind() / migrate_pages() / move_pages() will refuse to migrate
shared folios unless MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL is effective (requires
CAP_SYS_NICE). We will now reject some folios that could be migrated.
Similar to (3), especially with MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL, so this is not
expected to matter in practice.
Note that cpuset_migrate_mm_workfn() calls do_migrate_pages() with
MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL.
(5) NUMA hinting
mm/migrate.c:migrate_misplaced_folio_prepare() will skip file
folios that are probably shared libraries (-> "mapped shared" and
executable). This check would have detected it as a shared library at
some point (at least 3 MMs mapping it), so detecting it afterwards
does not sound wrong (still a shared library). Not expected to
matter.
mm/memory.c:numa_migrate_check() will indicate TNF_SHARED in
MAP_SHARED file mappings when encountering a shared folio. Similar
reasoning, not expected to matter.
mm/mprotect.c:change_pte_range() will skip folios detected as
shared in CoW mappings. Similarly, this is not expected to matter in
practice, but if it would ever be a problem we could relax that check
a bit (e.g., basing it on the average page-mapcount in a folio),
because it was only an optimization when many (e.g., 288) processes
were mapping the same folios -- see commit 859d4adc3415 ("mm: numa: do
not trap faults on shared data section pages.")
(6) mm/rmap.c:folio_referenced_one() will skip exclusive swapbacked
folios in dying processes. Applies to anonymous folios only. Without
"false negatives", we'll now skip all actually shared ones. Skipping
ones that are actually exclusive won't really matter, it's a pure
optimization, and is not expected to matter in practice.
In theory, one can detect the problematic scenario: folio_mapcount() > 0
and no folio MM slot is occupied ("state unknown"). One could reset the
MM slots while doing an rmap walk, which migration / folio split already
do when setting everything up. Further, when batching PTEs we might
naturally learn about a owner (e.g., folio_mapcount() == nr_ptes) and
could update the owner. However, we'll defer that until the scenarios
where it would really matter are clear.

Let's just use the "large" variant in code where we are sure that we have
a large folio in our hands: this way we are sure that we don't perform any
unnecessary "large" checks.
While at it, convert the VM_BUG_ON_VMA to a VM_WARN_ON_ONCE.
Maybe in the future there will not be a difference in that regard between
large and small folios; in that case, unifying the handling again will be
easy. E.g., folio_large_nr_pages() will simply translate to
folio_nr_pages() until we replace all instances.

The rmap doesn't currently support adding a PUD mapping of a folio. This
patch adds support for entire PUD mappings of folios, primarily to allow
for more standard refcounting of device DAX folios. Currently DAX is the
only user of this and it doesn't require support for partially mapped
PUD-sized folios so we don't support for that for now.

The try_to_unmap_one() function currently handles PMD-mapped THPs
inefficiently. It first splits the PMD into PTEs, copies the dirty state
from the PMD to the PTEs, iterates over the PTEs to locate the dirty
state, and then marks the THP as swap-backed. This process involves
unnecessary PMD splitting and redundant iteration. Instead, this
functionality can be efficiently managed in
__discard_anon_folio_pmd_locked(), avoiding the extra steps and improving
performance.
The following microbenchmark redirties folios after invoking MADV_FREE,
then measures the time taken to perform memory reclamation (actually set
those folios swapbacked again) on the redirtied folios.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/mman.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <time.h>
#define SIZE 128*1024*1024 // 128 MB
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
while(1) {
volatile int *p = mmap(0, SIZE, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0);
memset((void *)p, 1, SIZE);
madvise((void *)p, SIZE, MADV_FREE);
/* redirty after MADV_FREE */
memset((void *)p, 1, SIZE);
clock_t start_time = clock();
madvise((void *)p, SIZE, MADV_PAGEOUT);
clock_t end_time = clock();
double elapsed_time = (double)(end_time - start_time) / CLOCKS_PER_SEC;
printf("Time taken by reclamation: %f seconds\n", elapsed_time);
munmap((void *)p, SIZE);
}
return 0;

Currently, the PTEs and rmap of a large folio are removed one at a time.
This is not only slow but also causes the large folio to be unnecessarily
added to deferred_split, which can lead to races between the
deferred_split shrinker callback and memory reclamation. This patch
releases all PTEs and rmap entries in a batch. Currently, it only handles
lazyfree large folios.
The below microbench tries to reclaim 128MB lazyfree large folios
whose sizes are 64KiB:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/mman.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <time.h>

"/hugepages-64kB/stats/split_deferred", "r");
if (!file) {
perror("Error opening file");
return 0;
}
unsigned long value;
if (fscanf(file, "%lu", &value) != 1) {
perror("Error reading value");
fclose(file);
return 0;
}
fclose(file);
return value;
}
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
while(1) {

This patch lays the groundwork for supporting batch PTE unmapping in
try_to_unmap_one(). It introduces range handling for TLB batch flushing,
with the range currently set to the size of PAGE_SIZE.
The function __flush_tlb_range_nosync() is architecture-specific and is
only used within arch/arm64. This function requires the mm structure
instead of the vma structure. To allow its reuse by
arch_tlbbatch_add_pending(), which operates with mm but not vma, this
patch modifies the argument of __flush_tlb_range_nosync() to take mm as
its parameter.

Patch series "mm: batched unmap lazyfree large folios during reclamation",
v4.
Commit 735ecdfaf4e8 ("mm/vmscan: avoid split lazyfree THP during
shrink_folio_list()") prevents the splitting of MADV_FREE'd THP in
madvise.c.
However, those folios are still added to the deferred_split list in
try_to_unmap_one() because we are unmapping PTEs and removing rmap entries
one by one.
Firstly, this has rendered the following counter somewhat confusing,
/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/hugepages-size/stats/split_deferred
The split_deferred counter was originally designed to track operations
such as partial unmap or madvise of large folios. However, in practice,
most split_deferred cases arise from memory reclamation of aligned
lazyfree mTHPs as observed by Tangquan. This discrepancy has made the
split_deferred counter highly misleading.
Secondly, this approach is slow because it requires iterating through each
PTE and removing the rmap one by one for a large folio. In fact, all PTEs
of a pte-mapped large folio should be unmapped at once, and the entire
folio should be removed from the rmap as a whole.
Thirdly, it also increases the risk of a race condition where lazyfree
folios are incorrectly set back to swapbacked, as a speculative folio_get
may occur in the shrinker's callback.
deferred_split_scan() might call folio_try_get(folio) since we have added
the folio to split_deferred list while removing rmap for the 1st subpage,
and while we are scanning the 2nd to nr_pages PTEs of this folio in
try_to_unmap_one(), the entire mTHP could be transitioned back to
swap-backed because the reference count is incremented, which can make
"ref_count == 1 + map_count" within try_to_unmap_one() false.
/*
* The only page refs must be one from isolation
* plus the rmap(s) (dropped by discard:).
*/
if (ref_count == 1 + map_count &&
(!folio_test_dirty(folio) ||
...
(vma->vm_flags & VM_DROPPABLE))) {
dec_mm_counter(mm, MM_ANONPAGES);
goto discard;
}
This patchset resolves the issue by marking only genuinely dirty folios as
swap-backed, as suggested by David, and transitioning to batched unmapping
of entire folios in try_to_unmap_one(). Consequently, the deferred_split
count drops to zero, and memory reclamation performance improves
significantly — reclaiming 64KiB lazyfree large folios is now 2.5x
faster(The specific data is embedded in the changelog of patch 3/4).
By the way, while the patchset is primarily aimed at PTE-mapped large
folios, Baolin and Lance also found that try_to_unmap_one() handles
lazyfree redirtied PMD-mapped large folios inefficiently — it splits the
PMD into PTEs and iterates over them. This patchset removes the
unnecessary splitting, enabling us to skip redirtied PMD-mapped large
folios 3.5X faster during memory reclamation. (The specific data can be
found in the changelog of patch 4/4).
This patch (of 4):
The refcount may be temporarily or long-term increased, but this does not
change the fundamental nature of the folio already being lazy- freed.
Therefore, we only reset 'swapbacked' when we are certain the folio is
dirty and not droppable.

In the fb_defio video driver, page dirty state is used to determine when
frame buffer pages have been changed, allowing for batched, deferred I/O
to be performed for efficiency.
This implementation had only one means of doing so effectively - the use
of the folio_mkclean() function.
However, this use of the function is inappropriate, as the fb_defio
implementation allocates kernel memory to back the framebuffer, and then
is forced to specified page->index, mapping fields in order to permit the
folio_mkclean() rmap traversal to proceed correctly.
It is not correct to specify these fields on kernel-allocated memory, and
moreover since these are not folios, page->index, mapping are deprecated
fields, soon to be removed.
We therefore need to provide a means by which we can correctly traverse
the reverse mapping and write-protect mappings for a page backing an
address_space page cache object at a given offset.
This patch provides this - mapping_wrprotect_range() - which allows for
this operation to be performed for a specified address_space, offset, PFN
and size, without requiring a folio nor, of course, an inappropriate use
of page->index, mapping.
With this provided, we can subsequently adjust the fb_defio implementation
to make use of this function and avoid incorrect invocation of
folio_mkclean() and more importantly, incorrect manipulation of
page->index and mapping fields.

Patch series "expose mapping wrprotect, fix fb_defio use", v3.
Right now the only means by which we can write-protect a range using the
reverse mapping is via folio_mkclean().
However this is not always the appropriate means of doing so, specifically
in the case of the framebuffer deferred I/O logic (fb_defio enabled by
CONFIG_FB_DEFERRED_IO). There, kernel pages are mapped read-only and
write-protect faults used to batch up I/O operations.
Each time the deferred work is done, folio_mkclean() is used to mark the
framebuffer page as having had I/O performed on it. However doing so
requires the kernel page (perhaps allocated via vmalloc()) to have its
page->mapping, index fields set so the rmap can find everything that maps
it in order to write-protect.
This is problematic as firstly, these fields should not be set for
kernel-allocated memory, and secondly these are not folios (it's not user
memory) and page->index, mapping fields are now deprecated and soon to be
removed.
The removal of these fields is imminent, rendering this series more urgent
than it might first appear.
The implementers cannot be blamed for having used this however, as there
is simply no other way of performing this operation correctly.
This series fixes this - we provide the mapping_wrprotect_range() function
to allow the reverse mapping to be used to look up mappings from the page
cache object (i.e. its address_space pointer) at a specific offset.
The fb_defio logic already stores this offset, and can simply be expanded
to keep track of the page cache object, so the change then becomes
straight-forward.
This series should have no functional change.
This patch (of 3):
In order to permit the traversal of the reverse mapping at a specified
mapping and offset rather than those specified by an input folio, we need
to separate out the portion of the rmap file logic which deals with this
traversal from those parts of the logic which interact with the folio.
This patch achieves this by adding a new static __rmap_walk_file()
function which rmap_walk_file() invokes.
This function permits the ability to pass NULL folio, on the assumption
that the caller has provided for this correctly in the callbacks specified
in the rmap_walk_control object.
Though it provides for this, and adds debug asserts to ensure that, should
a folio be specified, these are equal to the mapping and offset specified
in the folio, there should be no functional change as a result of this
patch.
The reason for adding this is to enable for future changes to permit users
to be able to traverse mappings of userland-mapped kernel memory,
write-protecting those mappings to enable page_mkwrite() or pfn_mkwrite()
fault handlers to be retriggered on subsequent dirty.

Failing to obtain the folio lock, for example because the folio is
concurrently getting migrated or swapped out, can easily make the callers
fail: for example, the hmm selftest can sometimes be observed to fail
because of this. Instead of forcing the caller to retry, let's simply
retry in this to-be-expected case.
Similarly, avoid spurious failures simply because we raced with someone
(e.g., swapout) modifying the page table such that our folio_walk fails.
Simply unconditionally lock the folio, and retry GUP if our folio_walk
fails. Note that the folio_walk repeatedly failing is not something we
expect.
Note that we might want to avoid grabbing the folio lock at some point;
for now, keep that as is and only unconditionally lock the folio.
With this change, the hmm selftests don't fail simply because the folio is
already locked. While this fixes the selftests in some cases, it's likely
not something that deserves a "Fixes:".

Now that conversion to device-exclusive does no longer perform an rmap
walk and all page_vma_mapped_walk() users were taught to properly handle
device-exclusive entries, let's treat device-exclusive entries just as if
they would be present, similar to how we handle device-private entries
already.
This fixes swapout/migration/split/hwpoison of folios with
device-exclusive entries.
We only had to take care of page_vma_mapped_walk() users, because these
traditionally assume pte_present(). Other page table walkers already have
to handle !pte_present(), and some of them might simply skip them (e.g.,
MADV_PAGEOUT) if they are not specialized on them. This change doesn't
modify the latter.
Note that while folios with device-exclusive PTEs can now get migrated,
khugepaged will not collapse a THP if there is device-exclusive PTE.
Doing so might also not be desired if the device frequently performs
atomics to the same page. Similarly, KSM will never merge order-0 folios
that are device-exclusive.

PFN swap PTEs. Note that device-private entries are so far not applicable
on that path, as we expect ZONE_DEVICE pages so far only in migration code
when it comes to the RMAP.
Note that we could currently only run into this case with device-exclusive
entries on THPs. We still adjust the mapcount on conversion to
device-exclusive; this makes the rmap walk abort early for small folios,
because we'll always have !folio_mapped() with a single device-exclusive
entry. We'll adjust the mapcount logic once all page_vma_mapped_walk()
users can properly handle device-exclusive entries.

Ever since commit b756a3b5e7ea ("mm: device exclusive memory access") we
can return with a device-exclusive entry from page_vma_mapped_walk().
try_to_migrate_one() is not prepared for that, so teach it about these PFN
swap PTEs. We already handle device-private entries by specializing on
the folio, so we can reshuffle that code to make it work on the PFN swap
PTEs instead.
Get rid of the folio_is_device_private() handling. Note that we never
currently expect device-private folios with HWPoison flag set at that
point, so add a warning in case that ever changes and we can figure out
what the right thing to do is.
Note that we could currently only run into this case with device-exclusive
entries on THPs. We still adjust the mapcount on conversion to
device-exclusive; this makes the rmap walk abort early for small folios,
because we'll always have !folio_mapped() with a single device-exclusive
entry. We'll adjust the mapcount logic once all page_vma_mapped_walk()
users can properly handle device-exclusive entries.
Further note that try_to_migrate() calls MMU notifiers and holds the folio
lock, so any device-exclusive users should be properly prepared for a
device-exclusive PTE to "vanish".

We require a writable PTE and only support anonymous folio: we can only
have exactly one PTE pointing at that page, which we can just lookup using
a folio walk, avoiding the rmap walk and the anon VMA lock.
So let's stop doing an rmap walk and perform a folio walk instead, so we
can easily just modify a single PTE and avoid relying on rmap/mapcounts.
We now effectively work on a single PTE instead of multiple PTEs of a
large folio, allowing for conversion of individual PTEs from non-exclusive
to device-exclusive -- note that the opposite direction always works on
single PTEs: restore_exclusive_pte().
With this change, device-exclusive handling is fully compatible with THPs
/ large folios. We still require PMD-sized THPs to get PTE-mapped, and
supporting PMD-mapped THP (without the PTE-remapping) is a different
endeavour that might not be worth it at this point: it might even have
negative side-effects [1].
This gets rid of the "folio_mapcount()" usage and let's us fix ordinary
rmap walks (migration/swapout) next. Spell out that messing with the
mapcount is wrong and must be fixed.

The single "real" user in the tree of make_device_exclusive_range() always
requests making only a single address exclusive. The current
implementation is hard to fix for properly supporting anonymous THP /
large folios and for avoiding messing with rmap walks in weird ways.
So let's always process a single address/page and return folio + page to
minimize page -> folio lookups. This is a preparation for further
changes.
Reject any non-anonymous or hugetlb folios early, directly after GUP.
While at it, extend the documentation of make_device_exclusive() to
clarify some things.

Even though FOLL_SPLIT_PMD on hugetlb now always fails with -EOPNOTSUPP,
let's add a safety net in case FOLL_SPLIT_PMD usage would ever be
reworked.
In particular, before commit 9cb28da54643 ("mm/gup: handle hugetlb in the
generic follow_page_mask code"), GUP(FOLL_SPLIT_PMD) would just have
returned a page. In particular, hugetlb folios that are not PMD-sized
would never have been prone to FOLL_SPLIT_PMD.
hugetlb folios can be anonymous, and page_make_device_exclusive_one() is
not really prepared for handling them at all. So let's spell that out.

Patch series "page->index removals in mm", v2.
As part of shrinking struct page, we need to stop using page->index. This
patchset gets rid of most of the remaining references to page->index in
mm, as well as increasing the number of functions which take a const
folio/page pointer. It shrinks the text segment of mm by a few hundred
bytes in my test config, probably mostly from removing calls to
compound_head() in page_to_pgoff().
This patch (of 7):
Change the function signature to pass in the folio as all three callers
have it. This removes a reference to page->index, which we're trying to
get rid of. And add kernel-doc.

When the MM_WALK capability is enabled, memory that is mostly accessed by
a VM appears younger than it really is, therefore this memory will be less
likely to be evicted. Therefore, the presence of a running VM can
significantly increase swap-outs for non-VM memory, regressing the
performance for the rest of the system.
Fix this regression by always calling {ptep,pmdp}_clear_young_notify()
whenever we clear the young bits on PMDs/PTEs.

Currently folio->_deferred_list is used to keep track of partially_mapped
folios that are going to be split under memory pressure. In the next
patch, all THPs that are faulted in and collapsed by khugepaged are also
going to be tracked using _deferred_list.
This patch introduces a pageflag to be able to distinguish between
partially mapped folios and others in the deferred_list at split time in
deferred_split_scan. Its needed as __folio_remove_rmap decrements
_mapcount, _large_mapcount and _entire_mapcount, hence it won't be
possible to distinguish between partially mapped folios and others in
deferred_split_scan.
Eventhough it introduces an extra flag to track if the folio is partially
mapped, there is no functional change intended with this patch and the
flag is not useful in this patch itself, it will become useful in the next
patch when _deferred_list has non partially mapped folios.

Patch series "mm: count the number of anonymous THPs per size", v4.
Knowing the number of transparent anon THPs in the system is crucial
for performance analysis. It helps in understanding the ratio and
distribution of THPs versus small folios throughout the system.
Additionally, partial unmapping by userspace can lead to significant waste
of THPs over time and increase memory reclamation pressure. We need this
information for comprehensive system tuning.
This patch (of 2):
Let's track for each anonymous THP size, how many of them are currently
allocated. We'll track the complete lifespan of an anon THP, starting
when it becomes an anon THP ("large anon folio") (->mapping gets set),
until it gets freed (->mapping gets cleared).
Introduce a new "nr_anon" counter per THP size and adjust the
corresponding counter in the following cases:
* We allocate a new THP and call folio_add_new_anon_rmap() to map
it the first time and turn it into an anon THP.
* We split an anon THP into multiple smaller ones.
* We migrate an anon THP, when we prepare the destination.
* We free an anon THP back to the buddy.
Note that AnonPages in /proc/meminfo currently tracks the total number of
*mapped* anonymous *pages*, and therefore has slightly different
semantics. In the future, we might also want to track "nr_anon_mapped"
for each THP size, which might be helpful when comparing it to the number
of allocated anon THPs (long-term pinning, stuck in swapcache, memory
leaks, ...).
Further note that for now, we only track anon THPs after they got their
->mapping set, for example via folio_add_new_anon_rmap(). If we would
allocate some in the swapcache, they will only show up in the statistics
for now after they have been mapped to user space the first time, where we
call folio_add_new_anon_rmap().

We have some cases left whereby we operate on small folios and still refer
to page->_mapcount. Let's just use folio->_mapcount instead, which
currently still overlays page->_mapcount, so no change.
This change will make it easier to later spot any remaining users of
page->_mapcount that target tail pages.

It is not immediately obvious, but we can move the folio->_nr_pages_mapped
update out of the loop and reduce the number of atomic ops without
affecting the stats.
The important point to realize is that only removing the last PMD mapping
will result in _nr_pages_mapped going below ENTIRELY_MAPPED, not the
individual atomic_inc_return_relaxed() calls. Concurrent races with
removal of PMD mappings should be handled as expected, just like when we
would have such races right now on a single mapcount update.

same PTE-mapped folio size (only mapped by a single process such that they
will get completely unmapped), this change results in a speedup (positive
is good) per folio size on a x86-64 Intel machine of roughly (a bit of
noise expected):
* 16 KiB: +10%

* 256 KiB: +22%
* 512 KiB: +22%
* 1024 KiB: +23%

Let's simplify and reduce code indentation. In the RMAP_LEVEL_PTE case,
we already check for nr when computing partially_mapped.
For RMAP_LEVEL_PMD, it's a bit more confusing. Likely, we don't need the
"nr" check, but we could have "nr < nr_pmdmapped" also if we stumbled into
the "/* Raced ahead of another remove and an add? */" case. So let's
simply move the nr check in there.
Note that partially_mapped is always false for small folios.
No functional change intended.

The releasing process of the non-shared anonymous folio mapped solely by
an exiting process may go through two flows: 1) the anonymous folio is
firstly is swaped-out into swapspace and transformed into a swp_entry in
shrink_folio_list; 2) then the swp_entry is released in the process
exiting flow. This will result in the high cpu load of releasing a
non-shared anonymous folio mapped solely by an exiting process.
When the low system memory and the exiting process exist at the same time,
it will be likely to happen, because the non-shared anonymous folio mapped
solely by an exiting process may be reclaimed by shrink_folio_list.
This patch is that shrink skips the non-shared anonymous folio solely
mapped by an exting process and this folio is only released directly in
the process exiting flow, which will save swap-out time and alleviate the
load of the process exiting.
Barry provided some effectiveness testing in [1]. "I observed that
this patch effectively skipped 6114 folios (either 4KB or 64KB mTHP),
potentially reducing the swap-out by up to 92MB (97,300,480 bytes)
during the process exit. The working set size is 256MB."

Pull random number generator updates from Jason Donenfeld:
"This adds getrandom() support to the vDSO.
First, it adds a new kind of mapping to mmap(2), MAP_DROPPABLE, which
lets the kernel zero out pages anytime under memory pressure, which
enables allocating memory that never gets swapped to disk but also
doesn't count as being mlocked.
Then, the vDSO implementation of getrandom() is introduced in a
generic manner and hooked into random.c.
Next, this is implemented on x86. (Also, though it's not ready for
this pull, somebody has begun an arm64 implementation already)
Finally, two vDSO selftests are added.
There are also two housekeeping cleanup commits"
* tag 'random-6.11-rc1-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/crng/random:
MAINTAINERS: add random.h headers to RNG subsection
random: note that RNDGETPOOL was removed in 2.6.9-rc2
selftests/vDSO: add tests for vgetrandom
x86: vdso: Wire up getrandom() vDSO implementation
random: introduce generic vDSO getrandom() implementation
mm: add MAP_DROPPABLE for designating always lazily freeable mappings
|
|
The vDSO getrandom() implementation works with a buffer allocated with a
new system call that has certain requirements:
- It shouldn't be written to core dumps.
* Easy: VM_DONTDUMP.
- It should be zeroed on fork.
* Easy: VM_WIPEONFORK.
- It shouldn't be written to swap.
* Uh-oh: mlock is rlimited.
* Uh-oh: mlock isn't inherited by forks.
- It shouldn't reserve actual memory, but it also shouldn't crash when
page faulting in memory if none is available
* Uh-oh: VM_NORESERVE means segfaults.
It turns out that the vDSO getrandom() function has three really nice
characteristics that we can exploit to solve this problem:
1) Due to being wiped during fork(), the vDSO code is already robust to
having the contents of the pages it reads zeroed out midway through
the function's execution.
2) In the absolute worst case of whatever contingency we're coding for,
we have the option to fallback to the getrandom() syscall, and
everything is fine.
3) The buffers the function uses are only ever useful for a maximum of
60 seconds -- a sort of cache, rather than a long term allocation.
These characteristics mean that we can introduce VM_DROPPABLE, which
has the following semantics:
a) It never is written out to swap.
b) Under memory pressure, mm can just drop the pages (so that they're
zero when read back again).
c) It is inherited by fork.
d) It doesn't count against the mlock budget, since nothing is locked.
e) If there's not enough memory to service a page fault, it's not fatal,
and no signal is sent.
This way, allocations used by vDSO getrandom() can use:
VM_DROPPABLE | VM_DONTDUMP | VM_WIPEONFORK | VM_NORESERVE
And there will be no problem with OOMing, crashing on overcommitment,
using memory when not in use, not wiping on fork(), coredumps, or
writing out to swap.
In order to let vDSO getrandom() use this, expose these via mmap(2) as
MAP_DROPPABLE.
Note that this involves removing the MADV_FREE special case from
sort_folio(), which according to Yu Zhao is unnecessary and will simply
result in an extra call to shrink_folio_list() in the worst case. The
chunk removed reenables the swapbacked flag, which we don't want for
VM_DROPPABLE, and we can't conditionalize it here because there isn't a
vma reference available.
Finally, the provided self test ensures that this is working as desired.

The folio_test_anon(folio)==false cases has been relocated to
folio_add_new_anon_rmap(). Additionally, four other callers consistently
pass anonymous folios.
stack 1:
remove_migration_pmd
-> folio_add_anon_rmap_pmd
-> __folio_add_anon_rmap
stack 2:
__split_huge_pmd_locked
-> folio_add_anon_rmap_ptes
-> __folio_add_anon_rmap
stack 3:
remove_migration_pmd
-> folio_add_anon_rmap_pmd

stack 4:

-> replace_page
-> folio_add_anon_rmap_pte
-> __folio_add_anon_rmap
__folio_add_anon_rmap() only needs to handle the cases
folio_test_anon(folio)==true now.
We can remove the !folio_test_anon(folio)) path within
__folio_add_anon_rmap() now.

For the !folio_test_anon(folio) case, we can now invoke
folio_add_new_anon_rmap() with the rmap flags set to either EXCLUSIVE or
non-EXCLUSIVE. This action will suppress the VM_WARN_ON_FOLIO check
within __folio_add_anon_rmap() while initiating the process of bringing up
mTHP swapin.
static __always_inline void __folio_add_anon_rmap(struct folio *folio,
struct page *page, int nr_pages, struct vm_area_struct *vma,
unsigned long address, rmap_t flags, enum rmap_level level)
{
...
if (unlikely(!folio_test_anon(folio))) {
VM_WARN_ON_FOLIO(folio_test_large(folio) &&
level != RMAP_LEVEL_PMD, folio);
}
...
}
It also improves the code's readability. Currently, all new anonymous
folios calling folio_add_anon_rmap_ptes() are order-0. This ensures that
new folios cannot be partially exclusive; they are either entirely
exclusive or entirely shared.
A useful comment from Hugh's fix:
: Commit "mm: use folio_add_new_anon_rmap() if folio_test_anon(folio)==
: false" has extended folio_add_new_anon_rmap() to use on non-exclusive
: folios, already visible to others in swap cache and on LRU.
:
: That renders its non-atomic __folio_set_swapbacked() unsafe: it risks
: overwriting concurrent atomic operations on folio->flags, losing bits
: added or restoring bits cleared. Since it's only used in this risky way
: when folio_test_locked and !folio_test_anon, many such races are excluded;
: but, for example, isolations by folio_test_clear_lru() are vulnerable, and
: setting or clearing active.
:
: It could just use the atomic folio_set_swapbacked(); but this function
: does try to avoid atomics where it can, so use a branch instead: just
: avoid setting swapbacked when it is already set, that is good enough.
: (Swapbacked is normally stable once set: lazyfree can undo it, but only
: later, when found anon in a page table.)
:
: This fixes a lot of instability under compaction and swapping loads:
: assorted "Bad page"s, VM_BUG_ON_FOLIO()s, apparently even page double
: frees - though I've not worked out what races could lead to the latter.

Patch series "mm: clarify folio_add_new_anon_rmap() and
__folio_add_anon_rmap()", v2.
This patchset is preparatory work for mTHP swapin.
folio_add_new_anon_rmap() assumes that new anon rmaps are always
exclusive. However, this assumption doesn’t hold true for cases like
do_swap_page(), where a new anon might be added to the swapcache and is
not necessarily exclusive.
The patchset extends the rmap flags to allow folio_add_new_anon_rmap() to
handle both exclusive and non-exclusive new anon folios. The
do_swap_page() function is updated to use this extended API with rmap
flags. Consequently, all new anon folios now consistently use
folio_add_new_anon_rmap(). The special case for !folio_test_anon() in
__folio_add_anon_rmap() can be safely removed.
In conclusion, new anon folios always use folio_add_new_anon_rmap(),
regardless of exclusivity. Old anon folios continue to use
__folio_add_anon_rmap() via folio_add_anon_rmap_pmd() and
folio_add_anon_rmap_ptes().
This patch (of 3):
In the case of a swap-in, a new anonymous folio is not necessarily
exclusive. This patch updates the rmap flags to allow a new anonymous
folio to be treated as either exclusive or non-exclusive. To maintain the
existing behavior, we always use EXCLUSIVE as the default setting.

When the user no longer requires the pages, they would use

A lot of intricacies go into updating the stats when adding or removing
mappings: which stat index to use and which function. Abstract this away
into a new static helper in rmap.c, __folio_mod_stat().
This adds an unnecessary call to folio_test_anon() in
__folio_add_anon_rmap() and __folio_add_file_rmap(). However, the folio
struct should already be in the cache at this point, so it shouldn't cause
any noticeable overhead.
No functional change intended.

Previously, all NR_VM_EVENT_ITEMS stats were maintained per-memcg,
although some of those fields are not exposed anywhere. Commit
14e0f6c957e39 ("memcg: reduce memory for the lruvec and memcg stats")
changed this such that we only maintain the stats we actually expose
per-memcg via a translation table.
Additionally, commit 514462bbe927b ("memcg: warn for unexpected events
and stats") added a warning if a per-memcg stat update is attempted for
a stat that is not in the translation table. The warning started firing
for the NR_{FILE/SHMEM}_PMDMAPPED stat updates in the rmap code. These
stats are not maintained per-memcg, and hence are not in the translation
table.
Do not use __lruvec_stat_mod_folio() when updating NR_FILE_PMDMAPPED and
NR_SHMEM_PMDMAPPED. Use __mod_node_page_state() instead, which updates
the global per-node stats only.

In __folio_remove_rmap(), a large folio is added to deferred split list if
any page in a folio loses its final mapping. But it is possible that the
folio is fully unmapped and adding it to deferred split list is
unnecessary.
For PMD-mapped THPs, that was not really an issue, because removing the
last PMD mapping in the absence of PTE mappings would not have added the
folio to the deferred split queue.
However, for PTE-mapped THPs, which are now more prominent due to mTHP,
they are always added to the deferred split queue. One side effect is
that the THP_DEFERRED_SPLIT_PAGE stat for a PTE-mapped folio can be
unintentionally increased, making it look like there are many partially
mapped folios -- although the whole folio is fully unmapped stepwise.
Core-mm now tries batch-unmapping consecutive PTEs of PTE-mapped THPs
where possible starting from commit b06dc281aa99 ("mm/rmap: introduce
folio_remove_rmap_[pte|ptes|pmd]()"). When it happens, a whole PTE-mapped
folio is unmapped in one go and can avoid being added to deferred split
list, reducing the THP_DEFERRED_SPLIT_PAGE noise. But there will still be
noise when we cannot batch-unmap a complete PTE-mapped folio in one go --
or where this type of batching is not implemented yet, e.g., migration.
To avoid the unnecessary addition, folio->_nr_pages_mapped is checked to
tell if the whole folio is unmapped. If the folio is already on deferred
split list, it will be skipped, too.
Note: commit 98046944a159 ("mm: huge_memory: add the missing
folio_test_pmd_mappable() for THP split statistics") tried to exclude mTHP
deferred split stats from THP_DEFERRED_SPLIT_PAGE, but it does not fix the
above issue. A fully unmapped PTE-mapped order-9 THP was still added to
deferred split list and counted as THP_DEFERRED_SPLIT_PAGE, since nr is
512 (non zero), level is RMAP_LEVEL_PTE, and inside deferred_split_folio()
the order-9 folio is folio_test_pmd_mappable().

Patch series "Improve anon_vma scalability for anon VMAs".
We have a 3x throughput improvement reported by Intel's kernel test robot:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/202404261055.c5e24608-oliver.sang@intel.com/
This is from delaying taking the mmap_lock for page faults until we
actually need the mmap_lock in order to assign an anon_vma to the vma. It
cleans up the page fault path a little by making the anon fault handler
more similar to the file fault handler.
This patch (of 4):
Convert the comment into an assertion.

Let's track the mapcount of large folios in a single value. The mapcount
of a large folio currently corresponds to the sum of the entire mapcount
and all page mapcounts.
This sum is what we actually want to know in folio_mapcount() and it is
also sufficient for implementing folio_mapped().
With PTE-mapped THP becoming more important and more widely used, we want
to avoid looping over all pages of a folio just to obtain the mapcount of
large folios. The comment "In the common case, avoid the loop when no
pages mapped by PTE" in folio_total_mapcount() does no longer hold for
mTHP that are always mapped by PTE.
Further, we are planning on using folio_mapcount() more frequently, and
might even want to remove page mapcounts for large folios in some kernel
configs. Therefore, allow for reading the mapcount of large folios
efficiently and atomically without looping over any pages.
Maintain the mapcount also for hugetlb pages for simplicity. Use the new
mapcount to implement folio_mapcount() and folio_mapped(). Make
page_mapped() simply call folio_mapped(). We can now get rid of
folio_large_is_mapped().
_nr_pages_mapped is now only used in rmap code and for debugging purposes.
Keep folio_nr_pages_mapped() around, but document that its use should be
limited to rmap internals and debugging purposes.
This change implies one additional atomic add/sub whenever
mapping/unmapping (parts of) a large folio.
As we now batch RMAP operations for PTE-mapped THP during fork(), during
unmap/zap, and when PTE-remapping a PMD-mapped THP, and we adjust the
large mapcount for a PTE batch only once, the added overhead in the common
case is small. Only when unmapping individual pages of a large folio
(e.g., during COW), the overhead might be bigger in comparison, but it's
essentially one additional atomic operation.
Note that before the new mapcount would overflow, already our refcount
would overflow: each mapping requires a folio reference. Extend the
focumentation of folio_mapcount().

We removed all "bool compound" and RMAP_COMPOUND parameters. Let's remove
the remaining "compound" terminology by making COMPOUND_MAPPED match the
"folio->_entire_mapcount" terminology, renaming it to ENTIRELY_MAPPED.
ENTIRELY_MAPPED is only used when the whole folio is mapped using a single
page table entry (e.g., a single PMD mapping a PMD-sized THP). For now,
we don't support mapping any THP bigger than that, so ENTIRELY_MAPPED only
applies to PMD-mapped PMD-sized THP only.

Let's convert it like we converted all the other rmap functions. Don't
introduce folio_try_share_anon_rmap_ptes() for now, as we don't have a
user that wants rmap batching in sight. Pretty easy to add later.
All users are easy to convert -- only ksm.c doesn't use folios yet but
that is left for future work -- so let's just do it in a single shot.
While at it, turn the BUG_ON into a WARN_ON_ONCE.
Note that page_try_share_anon_rmap() so far didn't care about pte/pmd
mappings (no compound parameter). We're changing that so we can perform
better sanity checks and make the code actually more readable/consistent.
For example, __folio_rmap_sanity_checks() will make sure that a PMD range
actually falls completely into the folio.

folio_add_file_rmap_[pte|ptes|pmd]()
Let's get rid of the compound parameter and instead define explicitly
which mappings we're adding. That is more future proof, easier to read
and harder to mess up.
Use an enum to express the granularity internally. Make the compiler
always special-case on the granularity by using __always_inline. Replace
the "compound" check by a switch-case that will be removed by the compiler
completely.
Add plenty of sanity checks with CONFIG_DEBUG_VM. Replace the
folio_test_pmd_mappable() check by a config check in the caller and sanity
checks. Convert the single user of folio_add_file_rmap_range().
While at it, consistently use "int" instead of "unisgned int" in rmap code
when dealing with mapcounts and the number of pages.
This function design can later easily be extended to PUDs and to batch
PMDs. Note that for now we don't support anything bigger than PMD-sized
folios (as we cleanly separated hugetlb handling). Sanity checks will
catch if that ever changes.
Next up is removing page_remove_rmap() along with its "compound" parameter
and smilarly converting all other rmap functions.

hugetlb rmap handling differs quite a lot from "ordinary" rmap code. For
example, hugetlb currently only supports entire mappings, and treats any
mapping as mapped using a single "logical PTE". Let's move it out of the
way so we can overhaul our "ordinary" rmap. implementation/interface.
So let's introduce and use hugetlb_try_dup_anon_rmap() to make all hugetlb
handling use dedicated hugetlb_* rmap functions.
Add sanity checks that we end up with the right folios in the right
functions.
Note that try_to_unmap_one() does not need care. Easy to spot because
among all that nasty hugetlb special-casing in that function, we're not
using set_huge_pte_at() on the anon path -- well, and that code assumes
that we would want to swapout.

Patch series "mm/rmap: interface overhaul", v2.
This series overhauls the rmap interface, to get rid of the "bool
compound" / RMAP_COMPOUND parameter with the goal of making the interface
less error prone, more future proof, and more natural to extend to
"batching". Also, this converts the interface to always consume
folio+subpage, which speeds up operations on large folios.
Further, this series adds PTE-batching variants for 4 rmap functions,
whereby only folio_add_anon_rmap_ptes() is used for batching in this
series when PTE-remapping a PMD-mapped THP. folio_remove_rmap_ptes(),
folio_try_dup_anon_rmap_ptes() and folio_dup_file_rmap_ptes() will soon
come in handy[1,2].
This series performs a lot of folio conversion along the way. Most of the
added LOC in the diff are only due to documentation.
As we're moving to a pte/pmd interface where we clearly express the
mapping granularity we are dealing with, we first get the remainder of
hugetlb out of the way, as it is special and expected to remain special:
it treats everything as a "single logical PTE" and only currently allows
entire mappings.
Even if we'd ever support partial mappings, I strongly assume the
interface and implementation will still differ heavily: hopefull we can
avoid working on subpages/subpage mapcounts completely and only add a
"count" parameter for them to enable batching.
New (extended) hugetlb interface that operates on entire folio:
* hugetlb_add_new_anon_rmap() -> Already existed
* hugetlb_add_anon_rmap() -> Already existed
* hugetlb_try_dup_anon_rmap()
* hugetlb_try_share_anon_rmap()
* hugetlb_add_file_rmap()
* hugetlb_remove_rmap()
New "ordinary" interface for small folios / THP::
* folio_add_new_anon_rmap() -> Already existed
* folio_add_anon_rmap_[pte|ptes|pmd]()
* folio_try_dup_anon_rmap_[pte|ptes|pmd]()
* folio_try_share_anon_rmap_[pte|pmd]()
* folio_add_file_rmap_[pte|ptes|pmd]()
* folio_dup_file_rmap_[pte|ptes|pmd]()
* folio_remove_rmap_[pte|ptes|pmd]()
folio_add_new_anon_rmap() will always map at the largest granularity
possible (currently, a single PMD to cover a PMD-sized THP). Could be
extended if ever required.
In the future, we might want "_pud" variants and eventually "_pmds"
variants for batching.
I ran some simple microbenchmarks on an Intel(R) Xeon(R) Silver 4210R:
measuring munmap(), fork(), cow, MADV_DONTNEED on each PTE ... and PTE
remapping PMD-mapped THPs on 1 GiB of memory.
For small folios, there is barely a change (< 1% improvement for me).
For PTE-mapped THP:
* PTE-remapping a PMD-mapped THP is more than 10% faster.
* fork() is more than 4% faster.
* MADV_DONTNEED is 2% faster
* COW when writing only a single byte on a COW-shared PTE is 1% faster
* munmap() barely changes (< 1%).

This patch (of 40):
Let's just call it "hugetlb_".
Yes, it's all already inconsistent and confusing because we have a lot of
"hugepage_" functions for legacy reasons. But "hugetlb" cannot possibly
be confused with transparent huge pages, and it matches "hugetlb.c" and
"folio_test_hugetlb()". So let's minimize confusion in rmap code.

Implement the uABI of UFFDIO_MOVE ioctl.
UFFDIO_COPY performs ~20% better than UFFDIO_MOVE when the application
needs pages to be allocated [1]. However, with UFFDIO_MOVE, if pages are
available (in userspace) for recycling, as is usually the case in heap
compaction algorithms, then we can avoid the page allocation and memcpy
(done by UFFDIO_COPY). Also, since the pages are recycled in the
userspace, we avoid the need to release (via madvise) the pages back to
the kernel [2].
We see over 40% reduction (on a Google pixel 6 device) in the compacting
thread's completion time by using UFFDIO_MOVE vs. UFFDIO_COPY. This was
measured using a benchmark that emulates a heap compaction implementation
using userfaultfd (to allow concurrent accesses by application threads).
More details of the usecase are explained in [2]. Furthermore,
UFFDIO_MOVE enables moving swapped-out pages without touching them within
the same vma. Today, it can only be done by mremap, however it forces
splitting the vma.

Update for the ioctl_userfaultfd(2) manpage:
UFFDIO_MOVE
(Since Linux xxx) Move a continuous memory chunk into the
userfault registered range and optionally wake up the blocked
thread. The source and destination addresses and the number of
bytes to move are specified by the src, dst, and len fields of
the uffdio_move structure pointed to by argp:
struct uffdio_move {
__u64 dst; /* Destination of move */
__u64 src; /* Source of move */
__u64 len; /* Number of bytes to move */
__u64 mode; /* Flags controlling behavior of move */
__s64 move; /* Number of bytes moved, or negated error */
};
The following value may be bitwise ORed in mode to change the
behavior of the UFFDIO_MOVE operation:
UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_DONTWAKE
Do not wake up the thread that waits for page-fault
resolution
UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_ALLOW_SRC_HOLES
Allow holes in the source virtual range that is being moved.
When not specified, the holes will result in ENOENT error.
When specified, the holes will be accounted as successfully
moved memory. This is mostly useful to move hugepage aligned
virtual regions without knowing if there are transparent
hugepages in the regions or not, but preventing the risk of
having to split the hugepage during the operation.
The move field is used by the kernel to return the number of
bytes that was actually moved, or an error (a negated errno-
style value). If the value returned in move doesn't match the
value that was specified in len, the operation fails with the
error EAGAIN. The move field is output-only; it is not read by
the UFFDIO_MOVE operation.
The operation may fail for various reasons. Usually, remapping of
pages that are not exclusive to the given process fail; once KSM
might deduplicate pages or fork() COW-shares pages during fork()
with child processes, they are no longer exclusive. Further, the
kernel might only perform lightweight checks for detecting whether
the pages are exclusive, and return -EBUSY in case that check fails.
To make the operation more likely to succeed, KSM should be
disabled, fork() should be avoided or MADV_DONTFORK should be
configured for the source VMA before fork().
This ioctl(2) operation returns 0 on success. In this case, the
entire area was moved. On error, -1 is returned and errno is
set to indicate the error. Possible errors include:
EAGAIN The number of bytes moved (i.e., the value returned in
the move field) does not equal the value that was
specified in the len field.
EINVAL Either dst or len was not a multiple of the system page
size, or the range specified by src and len or dst and len
was invalid.
EINVAL An invalid bit was specified in the mode field.
ENOENT
The source virtual memory range has unmapped holes and
UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_ALLOW_SRC_HOLES is not set.
EEXIST
The destination virtual memory range is fully or partially
mapped.
EBUSY
The pages in the source virtual memory range are either
pinned or not exclusive to the process. The kernel might
only perform lightweight checks for detecting whether the
pages are exclusive. To make the operation more likely to
succeed, KSM should be disabled, fork() should be avoided
or MADV_DONTFORK should be configured for the source virtual
memory area before fork().
ENOMEM Allocating memory needed for the operation failed.
ESRCH
The target process has exited at the time of a UFFDIO_MOVE
operation.

Patch series "userfaultfd move option", v6.
This patch series introduces UFFDIO_MOVE feature to userfaultfd, which has
long been implemented and maintained by Andrea in his local tree [1], but
was not upstreamed due to lack of use cases where this approach would be
better than allocating a new page and copying the contents. Previous
upstraming attempts could be found at [6] and [7].
UFFDIO_COPY performs ~20% better than UFFDIO_MOVE when the application
needs pages to be allocated [2]. However, with UFFDIO_MOVE, if pages are
available (in userspace) for recycling, as is usually the case in heap
compaction algorithms, then we can avoid the page allocation and memcpy
(done by UFFDIO_COPY). Also, since the pages are recycled in the
userspace, we avoid the need to release (via madvise) the pages back to
the kernel [3]. We see over 40% reduction (on a Google pixel 6 device) in
the compacting thread's completion time by using UFFDIO_MOVE vs.
UFFDIO_COPY. This was measured using a benchmark that emulates a heap
compaction implementation using userfaultfd (to allow concurrent accesses
by application threads). More details of the usecase are explained in
[3].
Furthermore, UFFDIO_MOVE enables moving swapped-out pages without
touching them within the same vma. Today, it can only be done by mremap,
however it forces splitting the vma.
TODOs for follow-up improvements:
- cross-mm support. Known differences from single-mm and missing pieces:
- memcg recharging (might need to isolate pages in the process)
- mm counters
- cross-mm deposit table moves
- cross-mm test
- document the address space where src and dest reside in struct
uffdio_move
- TLB flush batching. Will require extensive changes to PTL locking in
move_pages_pte(). OTOH that might let us reuse parts of mremap code.
This patch (of 5):
For now, folio_move_anon_rmap() was only used to move a folio to a
different anon_vma after fork(), whereby the root anon_vma stayed
unchanged. For that, it was sufficient to hold the folio lock when
calling folio_move_anon_rmap().
However, we want to make use of folio_move_anon_rmap() to move folios
between VMAs that have a different root anon_vma. As folio_referenced()
performs an RMAP walk without holding the folio lock but only holding the
anon_vma in read mode, holding the folio lock is insufficient.
When moving to an anon_vma with a different root anon_vma, we'll have to
hold both, the folio lock and the anon_vma lock in write mode.
Consequently, whenever we succeeded in folio_lock_anon_vma_read() to
read-lock the anon_vma, we have to re-check if the mapping was changed in
the meantime. If that was the case, we have to retry.
Note that folio_move_anon_rmap() must only be called if the anon page is
exclusive to a process, and must not be called on KSM folios.
This is a preparation for UFFDIO_MOVE, which will hold the folio lock, the
anon_vma lock in write mode, and the mmap_lock in read mode.

Patch series "Multi-size THP for anonymous memory", v9.
A series to implement multi-size THP (mTHP) for anonymous memory
(previously called "small-sized THP" and "large anonymous folios").
The objective of this is to improve performance by allocating larger
chunks of memory during anonymous page faults:
1) Since SW (the kernel) is dealing with larger chunks of memory than base
pages, there are efficiency savings to be had; fewer page faults, batched PTE
and RMAP manipulation, reduced lru list, etc. In short, we reduce kernel
overhead. This should benefit all architectures.
2) Since we are now mapping physically contiguous chunks of memory, we can take
advantage of HW TLB compression techniques. A reduction in TLB pressure
speeds up kernel and user space. arm64 systems have 2 mechanisms to coalesce
TLB entries; "the contiguous bit" (architectural) and HPA (uarch).
This version incorporates David's feedback on the core patches (#3, #4)
and adds some RB and TB tags (see change log for details).
By default, the existing behaviour (and performance) is maintained. The
user must explicitly enable multi-size THP to see the performance benefit.
This is done via a new sysfs interface (as recommended by David
Hildenbrand - thanks to David for the suggestion)! This interface is
inspired by the existing per-hugepage-size sysfs interface used by
hugetlb, provides full backwards compatibility with the existing PMD-size
THP interface, and provides a base for future extensibility. See [9] for
detailed discussion of the interface.
This series is based on mm-unstable (715b67adf4c8).
Prerequisites
=============
I'm removing this section on the basis that I don't believe what we were
previously calling prerequisites are really prerequisites anymore. We
originally defined them when mTHP was a compile-time feature. There is
now a runtime control to opt-in to mTHP; when disabled, correctness and
performance are as before. When enabled, the code is still
correct/robust, but in the absence of the one remaining item (compaction)
there may be a performance impact in some corners. See the old list in
the v8 cover letter at [8]. And a longer explanation of my thinking here
[10].
SUMMARY: I don't think we should hold this series up, waiting for the
items on the prerequisites list. I believe this series should be ready
now so hopefully can be added to mm-unstable for some testing, then
fingers crossed for v6.8.
Testing
=======
The series includes patches for mm selftests to enlighten the cow and
khugepaged tests to explicitly test with multi-size THP, in the same way
that PMD-sized THP is tested. The new tests all pass, and no regressions
are observed in the mm selftest suite. I've also run my usual kernel
compilation and java script benchmarks without any issues.
Refer to my performance numbers posted with v6 [6]. (These are for
multi-size THP only - they do not include the arm64 contpte follow-on
series).
John Hubbard at Nvidia has indicated dramatic 10x performance improvements
for some workloads at [11]. (Observed using v6 of this series as well as
the arm64 contpte series).
Kefeng Wang at Huawei has also indicated he sees improvements at [12] although
there are some latency regressions also.
I've also checked that there is no regression in the write fault path when
mTHP is disabled using a microbenchmark. I ran it for a baseline kernel,
as well as v8 and v9. I repeated on Ampere Altra (bare metal) and Apple
M2 (VM):
| | m2 vm | altra |
|--------------|---------------------|---------------------|
| kernel | mean | std_rel | mean | std_rel |
|--------------|----------|----------|----------|----------|
| baseline | 0.000% | 0.341% | 0.000% | 3.581% |
| anonfolio-v8 | 0.005% | 0.272% | 5.068% | 1.128% |
| anonfolio-v9 | -0.013% | 0.442% | 0.107% | 1.788% |
There is no measurable difference on M2, but altra has a slow down in v8
which is fixed in v9 by moving the THP order check to be inline within
thp_vma_allowable_orders(), as suggested by David.
This patch (of 10):
In preparation for the introduction of anonymous multi-size THP, we would
like to be able to split them when they have unmapped subpages, in order
to free those unused pages under memory pressure. So remove the
artificial requirement that the large folio needed to be at least
PMD-sized.

Patch series "mm/rmap: convert page_move_anon_rmap() to
folio_move_anon_rmap()".
Convert page_move_anon_rmap() to folio_move_anon_rmap(), letting the
callers handle PageAnonExclusive. I'm including cleanup patch #3 because
it fits into the picture and can be done cleaner by the conversion.
This patch (of 3):
Let's move it into the caller: there is a difference between whether an
anon folio can only be mapped by one process (e.g., into one VMA), and
whether it is truly exclusive (e.g., no references -- including GUP --
from other processes).
Further, for large folios the page might not actually be pointing at the
head page of the folio, so it better be handled in the caller. This is a
preparation for converting page_move_anon_rmap() to consume a folio.

If large folio is in the range of VM_LOCKED VMA, it should be mlocked to
avoid being picked by page reclaim. Which may split the large folio and
then mlock each pages again.
Mlock this kind of large folio to prevent them being picked by page
reclaim.
For the large folio which cross the boundary of VM_LOCKED VMA or not fully
mapped to VM_LOCKED VMA, we'd better not to mlock it. So if the system is
under memory pressure, this kind of large folio will be split and the
pages ouf of VM_LOCKED VMA can be reclaimed.
Ideally, for large folio, we should mlock it when the large folio is fully
mapped to VMA and munlock it if any page are unmampped from VMA. But it's
not easy to detect whether the large folio is fully mapped to VMA in some
cases (like add/remove rmap). So we update mlock_vma_folio() and
munlock_vma_folio() to mlock/munlock the folio according to vma->vm_flags.
Let caller to decide whether they should call these two functions.
For add rmap, only mlock normal 4K folio and postpone large folio handling
to page reclaim phase. It is possible to reuse page table iterator to
detect whether folio is fully mapped or not during page reclaim phase.
For remove rmap, invoke munlock_vma_folio() to munlock folio unconditionly
because rmap makes folio not fully mapped to VMA.

re-reading the mapcounts.
We can stop initializing the "first" variable in page_add_anon_rmap() and

While at it, switch to VM_WARN_ON_FOLIO().

If swapin code would ever decide to not use order-0 pages and supply a
PTE-mapped large folio, we will have to change how we call
__folio_set_anon() -- eventually with exclusive=false and an adjusted
address. For now, let's add a VM_WARN_ON_FOLIO() with a comment about the
situation.

Let's handle it in the caller; no need for the "first" check based on the
mapcount.
We really only end up with !anon pages in page_add_anon_rmap() via
do_swap_page(), where we hold the folio lock. So races are not possible.
Add a VM_WARN_ON_FOLIO() to make sure that we really hold the folio lock.
In the future, we might want to let do_swap_page() use
folio_add_new_anon_rmap() on new pages instead: however, we might have to
pass then whether the folio is exclusive or not. So keep it in there for
now.
For hugetlb we never expect to have a non-anon page in
hugepage_add_anon_rmap(). Remove that code, along with some other checks
that are either not required or were checked in
hugepage_add_new_anon_rmap() already.

Patch series "Anon rmap cleanups".
Some cleanups around rmap for anon pages. I'm working on more cleanups
also around file rmap -- also to handle the "compound" parameter
internally only and to let hugetlb use page_add_file_rmap(), but these
changes make sense separately.
This patch (of 6):
That comment was added in commit 5dbe0af47f8a ("mm: fix kernel BUG at
mm/rmap.c:1017!") to document why we can see vma->vm_end getting adjusted
concurrently due to a VMA split.
However, the optimized locking code was changed again in bf181b9f9d8 ("mm
anon rmap: replace same_anon_vma linked list with an interval tree.").
... and later, the comment was changed in commit 0503ea8f5ba7 ("mm/mmap:
remove __vma_adjust()") to talk about "vma_merge" although the original
issue was with VMA splitting.
Let's just remove that comment. Nowadays, it's outdated, imprecise and
confusing.

Patch series "Fix set_huge_pte_at() panic on arm64", v2.
This series fixes a bug in arm64's implementation of set_huge_pte_at(),
which can result in an unprivileged user causing a kernel panic. The
problem was triggered when running the new uffd poison mm selftest for
HUGETLB memory. This test (and the uffd poison feature) was merged for
v6.5-rc7.
Ideally, I'd like to get this fix in for v6.6 and I've cc'ed stable
(correctly this time) to get it backported to v6.5, where the issue first
showed up.
Description of Bug
==================
arm64's huge pte implementation supports multiple huge page sizes, some of
which are implemented in the page table with multiple contiguous entries.
So set_huge_pte_at() needs to work out how big the logical pte is, so that
it can also work out how many physical ptes (or pmds) need to be written.
It previously did this by grabbing the folio out of the pte and querying
its size.
However, there are cases when the pte being set is actually a swap entry.
But this also used to work fine, because for huge ptes, we only ever saw
migration entries and hwpoison entries. And both of these types of swap
entries have a PFN embedded, so the code would grab that and everything
still worked out.
But over time, more calls to set_huge_pte_at() have been added that set
swap entry types that do not embed a PFN. And this causes the code to go
bang. The triggering case is for the uffd poison test, commit
99aa77215ad0 ("selftests/mm: add uffd unit test for UFFDIO_POISON"), which
causes a PTE_MARKER_POISONED swap entry to be set, coutesey of commit
8a13897fb0da ("mm: userfaultfd: support UFFDIO_POISON for hugetlbfs") -
added in v6.5-rc7. Although review shows that there are other call sites
that set PTE_MARKER_UFFD_WP (which also has no PFN), these don't trigger
on arm64 because arm64 doesn't support UFFD WP.
If CONFIG_DEBUG_VM is enabled, we do at least get a BUG(), but otherwise,
it will dereference a bad pointer in page_folio():
static inline struct folio *hugetlb_swap_entry_to_folio(swp_entry_t entry)
{
VM_BUG_ON(!is_migration_entry(entry) && !is_hwpoison_entry(entry));
return page_folio(pfn_to_page(swp_offset_pfn(entry)));
}
Fix
===
The simplest fix would have been to revert the dodgy cleanup commit
18f3962953e4 ("mm: hugetlb: kill set_huge_swap_pte_at()"), but since
things have moved on, this would have required an audit of all the new
set_huge_pte_at() call sites to see if they should be converted to
set_huge_swap_pte_at(). As per the original intent of the change, it
would also leave us open to future bugs when people invariably get it
wrong and call the wrong helper.
So instead, I've added a huge page size parameter to set_huge_pte_at().
This means that the arm64 code has the size in all cases. It's a bigger
change, due to needing to touch the arches that implement the function,
but it is entirely mechanical, so in my view, low risk.
I've compile-tested all touched arches; arm64, parisc, powerpc, riscv,
s390, sparc (and additionally x86_64). I've additionally booted and run
mm selftests against arm64, where I observe the uffd poison test is fixed,
and there are no other regressions.
This patch (of 2):
In order to fix a bug, arm64 needs to be told the size of the huge page
for which the pte is being set in set_huge_pte_at(). Provide for this by
adding an `unsigned long sz` parameter to the function. This follows the
same pattern as huge_pte_clear().
This commit makes the required interface modifications to the core mm as
well as all arches that implement this function (arm64, parisc, powerpc,
riscv, s390, sparc). The actual arm64 bug will be fixed in a separate
commit.
No behavioral changes intended.

Patch series "mm/swap: stop using page->private on tail pages for THP_SWAP
+ cleanups".
This series stops using page->private on tail pages for THP_SWAP, replaces
folio->private by folio->swap for swapcache folios, and starts using
"new_folio" for tail pages that we are splitting to remove the usage of
page->private for swapcache handling completely.
This patch (of 4):
Let's stop using page->private on tail pages, making it possible to just
unconditionally reuse that field in the tail pages of large folios.
The remaining usage of the private field for THP_SWAP is in the THP
splitting code (mm/huge_memory.c), that we'll handle separately later.
Update the THP_SWAP documentation and sanity checks in mm_types.h and
__split_huge_page_tail().

mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end()
Secondary TLBs are now invalidated from the architecture specific TLB
invalidation functions. Therefore there is no need to explicitly notify
or invalidate as part of the range end functions. This means we can
remove mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end_only() and some of the
ptep_*_notify() functions.

Currently we'll flush the mm in flush_tlb_batched_pending() to avoid race
between reclaim unmaps pages by batched TLB flush and mprotect/munmap/etc.
Other architectures like arm64 may only need a synchronization
barrier(dsb) here rather than a full mm flush. So add
arch_flush_tlb_batched_pending() to allow an arch-specific implementation
here. This intends no functional changes on x86 since still a full mm
flush for x86.

This patch does some preparation works to extend batched TLB flush to
arm64. Including:
- Extend set_tlb_ubc_flush_pending() and arch_tlbbatch_add_mm()
to accept an additional argument for address, architectures
like arm64 may need this for tlbi.
- Rename arch_tlbbatch_add_mm() to arch_tlbbatch_add_pending()
to match its current function since we don't need to handle
mm on architectures like arm64 and add_mm is not proper,
add_pending will make sense to both as on x86 we're pending the
TLB flush operations while on arm64 we're pending the synchronize
operations.
This intends no functional changes on x86.

Patch series "arm64: support batched/deferred tlb shootdown during page
reclamation/migration", v11.
Though ARM64 has the hardware to do tlb shootdown, the hardware
broadcasting is not free. A simplest micro benchmark shows even on
snapdragon 888 with only 8 cores, the overhead for ptep_clear_flush is
huge even for paging out one page mapped by only one process: 5.36% a.out
[kernel.kallsyms] [k] ptep_clear_flush
While pages are mapped by multiple processes or HW has more CPUs, the cost
should become even higher due to the bad scalability of tlb shootdown.
The same benchmark can result in 16.99% CPU consumption on ARM64 server
with around 100 cores according to the test on patch 4/4.
This patchset leverages the existing BATCHED_UNMAP_TLB_FLUSH by
1. only send tlbi instructions in the first stage -
arch_tlbbatch_add_mm()
2. wait for the completion of tlbi by dsb while doing tlbbatch
sync in arch_tlbbatch_flush()
Testing on snapdragon shows the overhead of ptep_clear_flush is removed by
the patchset. The micro benchmark becomes 5% faster even for one page
mapped by single process on snapdragon 888.
Since BATCHED_UNMAP_TLB_FLUSH is implemented only on x86, the patchset
does some renaming/extension for the current implementation first (Patch
1-3), then add the support on arm64 (Patch 4).
This patch (of 4):
The entire scheme of deferred TLB flush in reclaim path rests on the fact
that the cost to refill TLB entries is less than flushing out individual
entries by sending IPI to remote CPUs. But architecture can have
different ways to evaluate that. Hence apart from checking
TTU_BATCH_FLUSH in the TTU flags, rest of the decision should be
architecture specific.

Convert all instances of direct pte_t* dereferencing to instead use
ptep_get() helper. This means that by default, the accesses change from a
C dereference to a READ_ONCE(). This is technically the correct thing to
do since where pgtables are modified by HW (for access/dirty) they are
volatile and therefore we should always ensure READ_ONCE() semantics.
But more importantly, by always using the helper, it can be overridden by
the architecture to fully encapsulate the contents of the pte. Arch code
is deliberately not converted, as the arch code knows best. It is
intended that arch code (arm64) will override the default with its own
implementation that can (e.g.) hide certain bits from the core code, or
determine young/dirty status by mixing in state from another source.
Conversion was done using Coccinelle:
----
// $ make coccicheck \
// COCCI=ptepget.cocci \
// SPFLAGS="--include-headers" \
// MODE=patch
virtual patch
@ depends on patch @
pte_t *v;
@@
- *v
+ ptep_get(v)
----
Then reviewed and hand-edited to avoid multiple unnecessary calls to
ptep_get(), instead opting to store the result of a single call in a
variable, where it is correct to do so. This aims to negate any cost of
READ_ONCE() and will benefit arch-overrides that may be more complex.
Included is a fix for an issue in an earlier version of this patch that
was pointed out by kernel test robot. The issue arose because config
MMU=n elides definition of the ptep helper functions, including
ptep_get(). HUGETLB_PAGE=n configs still define a simple
huge_ptep_clear_flush() for linking purposes, which dereferences the ptep.
So when both configs are disabled, this caused a build error because
ptep_get() is not defined. Fix by continuing to do a direct dereference
when MMU=n. This is safe because for this config the arch code cannot be
trying to virtualize the ptes because none of the ptep helpers are
defined.

The only instances of get_user_pages_remote() invocations which used the
vmas parameter were for a single page which can instead simply look up the
VMA directly. In particular:-
- __update_ref_ctr() looked up the VMA but did nothing with it so we simply
remove it.
- __access_remote_vm() was already using vma_lookup() when the original
lookup failed so by doing the lookup directly this also de-duplicates the
code.
We are able to perform these VMA operations as we already hold the
mmap_lock in order to be able to call get_user_pages_remote().
As part of this work we add get_user_page_vma_remote() which abstracts the
VMA lookup, error handling and decrementing the page reference count should
the VMA lookup fail.
This forms part of a broader set of patches intended to eliminate the vmas
parameter altogether.

0Day/LKP reported a performance regression for commit 7e12beb8ca2a
("migrate_pages: batch flushing TLB"). In the commit, the TLB flushing
during page migration is batched. So, in try_to_migrate_one(),
ptep_clear_flush() is replaced with set_tlb_ubc_flush_pending(). In
further investigation, it is found that the TLB flushing can be avoided in
ptep_clear_flush() if the PTE is inaccessible. In fact, we can optimize
in similar way for the batched TLB flushing too to improve the
performance.
So in this patch, we check pte_accessible() before
set_tlb_ubc_flush_pending() in try_to_unmap/migrate_one(). Tests show
that the benchmark score of the anon-cow-rand-mt test case of
vm-scalability test suite can improve up to 2.1% with the patch on a Intel
server machine. The TLB flushing IPI can reduce up to 44.3%.

Protect VMA from concurrent page fault handler while collapsing a huge
page. Page fault handler needs a stable PMD to use PTL and relies on
per-VMA lock to prevent concurrent PMD changes. pmdp_collapse_flush(),
set_huge_pmd() and collapse_and_free_pmd() can modify a PMD, which will
not be detected by a page fault handler without proper locking.
Before this patch, page tables can be walked under any one of the
mmap_lock, the mapping lock, and the anon_vma lock; so when khugepaged
unlinks and frees page tables, it must ensure that all of those either are
locked or don't exist. This patch adds a fourth lock under which page
tables can be traversed, and so khugepaged must also lock out that one.

Use atomic_try_cmpxchg instead of atomic_cmpxchg (*ptr, old, new) == old
in set_tlb_ubc_flush_pending. 86 CMPXCHG instruction returns success in
ZF flag, so this change saves a compare after cmpxchg (and related move
instruction in front of cmpxchg).
Also, try_cmpxchg implicitly assigns old *ptr value to "old" when cmpxchg
fails.
No functional change intended.

After a memory error happens on a clean folio, a process unexpectedly
receives SIGBUS when it accesses the error page. This SIGBUS killing is
pointless and simply degrades the level of RAS of the system, because the
clean folio can be dropped without any data lost on memory error handling
as we do for a clean pagecache.
When memory_failure() is called on a clean folio, try_to_unmap() is called
twice (one from split_huge_page() and one from hwpoison_user_mappings()).
The root cause of the issue is that pte conversion to hwpoisoned entry is
now done in the first call of try_to_unmap() because PageHWPoison is
already set at this point, while it's actually expected to be done in the
second call. This behavior disturbs the error handling operation like
removing pagecache, which results in the malfunction described above.
So convert TTU_IGNORE_HWPOISON into TTU_HWPOISON and set TTU_HWPOISON only
when we really intend to convert pte to hwpoison entry. This can prevent
other callers of try_to_unmap() from accidentally converting to hwpoison
entries.

The TLB flushing will cost quite some CPU cycles during the folio
migration in some situations. For example, when migrate a folio of a
process with multiple active threads that run on multiple CPUs. After
batching the _unmap and _move in migrate_pages(), the TLB flushing can be
batched easily with the existing TLB flush batching mechanism. This patch
implements that.
We use the following test case to test the patch.
On a 2-socket Intel server,
- Run pmbench memory accessing benchmark
- Run `migratepages` to migrate pages of pmbench between node 0 and
node 1 back and forth.
With the patch, the TLB flushing IPI reduces 99.1% during the test and the
number of pages migrated successfully per second increases 291.7%.
Haoxin helped to test the patchset on an ARM64 server with 128 cores, 2
NUMA nodes. Test results show that the page migration performance
increases up to 78%.
NOTE: TLB flushing is batched only for normal folios, not for THP folios.
Because the overhead of TLB flushing for THP folios is much lower than
that for normal folios (about 1/512 on x86 platform).

Calling this 'mapcount' is confusing since mapcount is usually the number
of times something is mapped; instead this is the number of mapped pages.
It's also better to enforce that this is a folio rather than a head page.

something we want device drivers or filesystems poking at. Get rid of

Add vma_has_recency() to indicate whether a VMA may exhibit temporal
locality that the LRU algorithm relies on.
This function returns false for VMAs marked by VM_SEQ_READ or
VM_RAND_READ. While the former flag indicates linear access, i.e., a
special case of spatial locality, both flags indicate a lack of temporal
locality, i.e., the reuse of an area within a relatively small duration.
"Recency" is chosen over "locality" to avoid confusion between temporal
and spatial localities.
Before this patch, the active/inactive LRU only ignored the accessed bit
from VMAs marked by VM_SEQ_READ. After this patch, the active/inactive
LRU and MGLRU share the same logic: they both ignore the accessed bit if
vma_has_recency() returns false.
For the active/inactive LRU, the following fio test showed a [6, 8]%
increase in IOPS when randomly accessing mapped files under memory
pressure.
kb=$(awk '/MemTotal/ { print $2 }' /proc/meminfo)
kb=$((kb - 8*1024*1024))

Commit 4b51634cd16a, introducing the COMPOUND_MAPPED bit, paid attention
to the impossibility of subpages_mapcount ever appearing negative; but did
not attend to those races in which it can momentarily appear larger than
thought possible.
These arise from how page_remove_rmap() first decrements page->_mapcount
or compound_mapcount, then, if that transition goes negative (logical 0),
decrements subpages_mapcount. The initial decrement lets a racing
page_add_*_rmap() reincrement _mapcount or compound_mapcount immediately,
and then in rare cases its corresponding increment of subpages_mapcount
may be completed before page_remove_rmap()'s decrement. There could even
(with increasing unlikelihood) be a series of increments intermixed with
the decrements.
In practice, checking subpages_mapcount with a temporary WARN on range,
has caught values of 0x1000000 (2*COMPOUND_MAPPED, when move_pages() was
using remove_migration_pmd()) and 0x800201 (do_huge_pmd_wp_page() using
__split_huge_pmd()): page_add_anon_rmap() racing page_remove_rmap(), as
predicted.
I certainly found it harder to reason about than when bit_spin_locked, but
the easy case gives a clue to how to handle the harder case. The easy
case being the three !(nr & COMPOUND_MAPPED) checks, which should
obviously be replaced by (nr < COMPOUND_MAPPED) checks - to count a page
as compound mapped, even while the bit in that position is 0.
The harder case is when trying to decide how many subpages are newly
covered or uncovered, when compound map is first added or last removed:
not knowing all that racily happened between first and second atomic ops.
But the easy way to handle that, is again to count the page as compound
mapped all the while that its subpages_mapcount indicates so - ignoring
the _mapcount or compound_mapcount transition while it is on the way to
being reversed.

Can the lock_compound_mapcount() bit_spin_lock apparatus be removed now?
Yes. Not by atomic64_t or cmpxchg games, those get difficult on 32-bit;
but if we slightly abuse subpages_mapcount by additionally demanding that
one bit be set there when the compound page is PMD-mapped, then a cascade
of two atomic ops is able to maintain the stats without bit_spin_lock.
This is harder to reason about than when bit_spin_locked, but I believe
safe; and no drift in stats detected when testing. When there are racing
removes and adds, of course the sequence of operations is less well-
defined; but each operation on subpages_mapcount is atomically good. What
might be disastrous, is if subpages_mapcount could ever fleetingly appear
negative: but the pte lock (or pmd lock) these rmap functions are called
under, ensures that a last remove cannot race ahead of a first add.
Continue to make an exception for hugetlb (PageHuge) pages, though that
exception can be easily removed by a further commit if necessary: leave
subpages_mapcount 0, don't bother with COMPOUND_MAPPED in its case, just
carry on checking compound_mapcount too in folio_mapped(), page_mapped().
Evidence is that this way goes slightly faster than the previous
implementation in all cases (pmds after ptes now taking around 103ms); and
relieves us of worrying about contention on the bit_spin_lock.

Patch series "mm,thp,rmap: rework the use of subpages_mapcount", v2.
This patch (of 3):
Following suggestion from Linus, instead of counting every PTE map of a
compound page in subpages_mapcount, just count how many of its subpages
are PTE-mapped: this yields the exact number needed for NR_ANON_MAPPED and
NR_FILE_MAPPED stats, without any need for a locked scan of subpages; and
requires updating the count less often.
This does then revert total_mapcount() and folio_mapcount() to needing a
scan of subpages; but they are inherently racy, and need no locking, so
Linus is right that the scans are much better done there. Plus (unlike in
6.1 and previous) subpages_mapcount lets us avoid the scan in the common
case of no PTE maps. And page_mapped() and folio_mapped() remain scanless
and just as efficient with the new meaning of subpages_mapcount: those are
the functions which I most wanted to remove the scan from.
The updated page_dup_compound_rmap() is no longer suitable for use by anon
THP's __split_huge_pmd_locked(); but page_add_anon_rmap() can be used for
that, so long as its VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(!PageLocked) is deleted.
Evidence is that this way goes slightly faster than the previous
implementation for most cases; but significantly faster in the (now
scanless) pmds after ptes case, which started out at 870ms and was brought
down to 495ms by the previous series, now takes around 105ms.

Commit ("mm,thp,rmap: lock_compound_mapcounts() on THP mapcounts")
propagated the "if (compound) {lock} else if (PageCompound) {lock} else
{atomic}" pattern throughout; but Linus hated the way that gives primacy
to the uncommon case: switch to "if (!PageCompound) {atomic} else if
(compound) {lock} else {lock}" throughout. Linus has a bigger idea for
how to improve it all, but here just make that rearrangement.

Fix the races in maintaining compound_mapcount, subpages_mapcount and
subpage _mapcount by using PG_locked in the first tail of any compound
page for a bit_spin_lock() on such modifications; skipping the usual
atomic operations on those fields in this case.
Bring page_remove_file_rmap() and page_remove_anon_compound_rmap() back
into page_remove_rmap() itself. Rearrange page_add_anon_rmap() and
page_add_file_rmap() and page_remove_rmap() to follow the same "if
(compound) {lock} else if (PageCompound) {lock} else {atomic}" pattern
(with a PageTransHuge in the compound test, like before, to avoid BUG_ONs
and optimize away that block when THP is not configured). Move all the
stats updates outside, after the bit_spin_locked section, so that it is
sure to be a leaf lock.
Add page_dup_compound_rmap() to manage compound locking versus atomics in
sync with the rest. In particular, hugetlb pages are still using the
atomics: to avoid unnecessary interference there, and because they never
have subpage mappings; but this exception can easily be changed.
Conveniently, page_dup_compound_rmap() turns out to suit an anon THP's
__split_huge_pmd_locked() too.
bit_spin_lock() is not popular with PREEMPT_RT folks: but PREEMPT_RT
sensibly excludes TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE already, so its only exposure is to
the non-hugetlb non-THP pte-mapped compound pages (with large folios being
currently dependent on TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE). There is never any scan of
subpages in this case; but we have chosen to use PageCompound tests rather
than PageTransCompound tests to gate the use of lock_compound_mapcounts(),
so that page_mapped() is correct on all compound pages, whether or not
TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE is enabled: could that be a problem for PREEMPT_RT,
when there is contention on the lock - under heavy concurrent forking for
example? If so, then it can be turned into a sleeping lock (like
folio_lock()) when PREEMPT_RT.
A simple 100 X munmap(mmap(2GB, MAP_SHARED|MAP_POPULATE, tmpfs), 2GB) took
18 seconds on small pages, and used to take 1 second on huge pages, but
now takes 115 milliseconds on huge pages. Mapping by pmds a second time
used to take 860ms and now takes 86ms; mapping by pmds after mapping by
ptes (when the scan is needed) used to take 870ms and now takes 495ms.
Mapping huge pages by ptes is largely unaffected but variable: between 5%
faster and 5% slower in what I've recorded. Contention on the lock is
likely to behave worse than contention on the atomics behaved.

Compound page (folio) mapcount calculations have been different for anon
and file (or shmem) THPs, and involved the obscure PageDoubleMap flag.
And each huge mapping and unmapping of a file (or shmem) THP involved
atomically incrementing and decrementing the mapcount of every subpage of
that huge page, dirtying many struct page cachelines.
Add subpages_mapcount field to the struct folio and first tail page, so
that the total of subpage mapcounts is available in one place near the
head: then page_mapcount() and total_mapcount() and page_mapped(), and
their folio equivalents, are so quick that anon and file and hugetlb don't
need to be optimized differently. Delete the unloved PageDoubleMap.
page_add and page_remove rmap functions must now maintain the
subpages_mapcount as well as the subpage _mapcount, when dealing with pte
mappings of huge pages; and correct maintenance of NR_ANON_MAPPED and
NR_FILE_MAPPED statistics still needs reading through the subpages, using
nr_subpages_unmapped() - but only when first or last pmd mapping finds
subpages_mapcount raised (double-map case, not the common case).
But are those counts (used to decide when to split an anon THP, and in
vmscan's pagecache_reclaimable heuristic) correctly maintained? Not
quite: since page_remove_rmap() (and also split_huge_pmd()) is often
called without page lock, there can be races when a subpage pte mapcount
0<->1 while compound pmd mapcount 0<->1 is scanning - races which the
previous implementation had prevented. The statistics might become
inaccurate, and even drift down until they underflow through 0. That is
not good enough, but is better dealt with in a followup patch.
Update a few comments on first and second tail page overlaid fields.
hugepage_add_new_anon_rmap() has to "increment" compound_mapcount, but
subpages_mapcount and compound_pincount are already correctly at 0, so
delete its reinitialization of compound_pincount.
A simple 100 X munmap(mmap(2GB, MAP_SHARED|MAP_POPULATE, tmpfs), 2GB) took
18 seconds on small pages, and used to take 1 second on huge pages, but
now takes 119 milliseconds on huge pages. Mapping by pmds a second time
used to take 860ms and now takes 92ms; mapping by pmds after mapping by
ptes (when the scan is needed) used to take 870ms and now takes 495ms.
But there might be some benchmarks which would show a slowdown, because
tail struct pages now fall out of cache until final freeing checks them.

of private hugetlb mappings. It matches with the shared mappings where we
only clear the bit when adding into page cache, rather than spreading it

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- Yu Zhao's Multi-Gen LRU patches are here. They've been under test in
linux-next for a couple of months without, to my knowledge, any
negative reports (or any positive ones, come to that).
- Also the Maple Tree from Liam Howlett. An overlapping range-based
tree for vmas. It it apparently slightly more efficient in its own
right, but is mainly targeted at enabling work to reduce mmap_lock
contention.
Liam has identified a number of other tree users in the kernel which
could be beneficially onverted to mapletrees.
Yu Zhao has identified a hard-to-hit but "easy to fix" lockdep splat
at [1]. This has yet to be addressed due to Liam's unfortunately
timed vacation. He is now back and we'll get this fixed up.
- Dmitry Vyukov introduces KMSAN: the Kernel Memory Sanitizer. It uses
clang-generated instrumentation to detect used-unintialized bugs down
to the single bit level.
KMSAN keeps finding bugs. New ones, as well as the legacy ones.
- Yang Shi adds a userspace mechanism (madvise) to induce a collapse of
memory into THPs.
- Zach O'Keefe has expanded Yang Shi's madvise(MADV_COLLAPSE) to
support file/shmem-backed pages.
- userfaultfd updates from Axel Rasmussen
- zsmalloc cleanups from Alexey Romanov
- cleanups from Miaohe Lin: vmscan, hugetlb_cgroup, hugetlb and
memory-failure
- Huang Ying adds enhancements to NUMA balancing memory tiering mode's
page promotion, with a new way of detecting hot pages.
- memcg updates from Shakeel Butt: charging optimizations and reduced
memory consumption.
- memcg cleanups from Kairui Song.
- memcg fixes and cleanups from Johannes Weiner.
- Vishal Moola provides more folio conversions
- Zhang Yi removed ll_rw_block() :(
- migration enhancements from Peter Xu
- migration error-path bugfixes from Huang Ying
- Aneesh Kumar added ability for a device driver to alter the memory
tiering promotion paths. For optimizations by PMEM drivers, DRM
drivers, etc.
- vma merging improvements from Jakub Matěn.
- NUMA hinting cleanups from David Hildenbrand.
- xu xin added aditional userspace visibility into KSM merging
activity.
- THP & KSM code consolidation from Qi Zheng.
- more folio work from Matthew Wilcox.
- KASAN updates from Andrey Konovalov.
- DAMON cleanups from Kaixu Xia.
- DAMON work from SeongJae Park: fixes, cleanups.
- hugetlb sysfs cleanups from Muchun Song.

The new hugetlb vma lock is used to address this race:
Faulting thread Unsharing thread
... ...
ptep = huge_pte_offset()
or
ptep = huge_pte_alloc()
...
i_mmap_lock_write
lock page table
ptep invalid <------------------------ huge_pmd_unshare()
Could be in a previously unlock_page_table
sharing process or worse i_mmap_unlock_write
...
The vma_lock is used as follows:
- During fault processing. The lock is acquired in read mode before
doing a page table lock and allocation (huge_pte_alloc). The lock is
held until code is finished with the page table entry (ptep).
- The lock must be held in write mode whenever huge_pmd_unshare is
called.
Lock ordering issues come into play when unmapping a page from all
vmas mapping the page. The i_mmap_rwsem must be held to search for the
vmas, and the vma lock must be held before calling unmap which will
call huge_pmd_unshare. This is done today in:
- try_to_migrate_one and try_to_unmap_ for page migration and memory
error handling. In these routines we 'try' to obtain the vma lock and
fail to unmap if unsuccessful. Calling routines already deal with the
failure of unmapping.
- hugetlb_vmdelete_list for truncation and hole punch. This routine
also tries to acquire the vma lock. If it fails, it skips the
unmapping. However, we can not have file truncation or hole punch
fail because of contention. After hugetlb_vmdelete_list, truncation
and hole punch call remove_inode_hugepages. remove_inode_hugepages
checks for mapped pages and call hugetlb_unmap_file_page to unmap them.
hugetlb_unmap_file_page is designed to drop locks and reacquire in the
correct order to guarantee unmap success.

Allocate a new hugetlb_vma_lock structure and hang off vm_private_data for
synchronization use by vmas that could be involved in pmd sharing. This
data structure contains a rw semaphore that is the primary tool used for
synchronization.
This new structure is ref counted, so that it can exist when NOT attached
to a vma. This is only helpful in resolving lock ordering issues where
code may need to obtain the vma_lock while there are no guarantees the vma
may go away. By obtaining a ref on the structure, it can be guaranteed
that at least the rw semaphore will not go away.
Only add infrastructure for the new lock here. Actual use will be added
in subsequent patches.

Commit c0d0381ade79 ("hugetlbfs: use i_mmap_rwsem for more pmd sharing
synchronization") added code to take i_mmap_rwsem in read mode for the
duration of fault processing. However, this has been shown to cause
performance/scaling issues. Revert the code and go back to only taking
the semaphore in huge_pmd_share during the fault path.
Keep the code that takes i_mmap_rwsem in write mode before calling
try_to_unmap as this is required if huge_pmd_unshare is called.
NOTE: Reverting this code does expose the following race condition.
Faulting thread Unsharing thread
... ...
ptep = huge_pte_offset()
or
ptep = huge_pte_alloc()
...
i_mmap_lock_write
lock page table
ptep invalid <------------------------ huge_pmd_unshare()
Could be in a previously unlock_page_table
sharing process or worse i_mmap_unlock_write
...
ptl = huge_pte_lock(ptep)
get/update pte
set_pte_at(pte, ptep)
It is unknown if the above race was ever experienced by a user. It was
discovered via code inspection when initially addressed.
In subsequent patches, a new synchronization mechanism will be added to
coordinate pmd sharing and eliminate this race.

Searching the rmap for PTEs mapping each page on an LRU list (to test and
clear the accessed bit) can be expensive because pages from different VMAs
(PA space) are not cache friendly to the rmap (VA space). For workloads
mostly using mapped pages, searching the rmap can incur the highest CPU
cost in the reclaim path.
This patch exploits spatial locality to reduce the trips into the rmap.
When shrink_page_list() walks the rmap and finds a young PTE, a new
function lru_gen_look_around() scans at most BITS_PER_LONG-1 adjacent
PTEs. On finding another young PTE, it clears the accessed bit and
updates the gen counter of the page mapped by this PTE to
(max_seq%MAX_NR_GENS)+1.

When page migration happens, we always ignore the young/dirty bit settings
in the old pgtable, and marking the page as old in the new page table
using either pte_mkold() or pmd_mkold(), and keeping the pte clean.
That's fine from functional-wise, but that's not friendly to page reclaim
because the moving page can be actively accessed within the procedure.
Not to mention hardware setting the young bit can bring quite some
overhead on some systems, e.g. x86_64 needs a few hundreds nanoseconds to
set the bit. The same slowdown problem to dirty bits when the memory is
first written after page migration happened.
Actually we can easily remember the A/D bit configuration and recover the
information after the page is migrated. To achieve it, define a new set
of bits in the migration swap offset field to cache the A/D bits for old
pte. Then when removing/recovering the migration entry, we can recover
the A/D bits even if the page changed.
One thing to mention is that here we used max_swapfile_size() to detect
how many swp offset bits we have, and we'll only enable this feature if we
know the swp offset is big enough to store both the PFN value and the A/D
bits. Otherwise the A/D bits are dropped like before.

commit 6c287605fd56 ("mm: remember exclusively mapped anonymous pages with
PG_anon_exclusive") made sure that when PageAnonExclusive() has to be
cleared during temporary unmapping of a page, that the PTE is
cleared/invalidated and that the TLB is flushed.
What we want to achieve in all cases is that we cannot end up with a pin on
an anonymous page that may be shared, because such pins would be
unreliable and could result in memory corruptions when the mapped page
and the pin go out of sync due to a write fault.
That TLB flush handling was inspired by an outdated comment in
mm/ksm.c:write_protect_page(), which similarly required the TLB flush in
the past to synchronize with GUP-fast. However, ever since general RCU GUP
fast was introduced in commit 2667f50e8b81 ("mm: introduce a general RCU
get_user_pages_fast()"), a TLB flush is no longer sufficient to handle
concurrent GUP-fast in all cases -- it only handles traditional IPI-based
GUP-fast correctly.
Peter Xu (thankfully) questioned whether that TLB flush is really
required. On architectures that send an IPI broadcast on TLB flush,
it works as expected. To synchronize with RCU GUP-fast properly, we're
conceptually fine, however, we have to enforce a certain memory order and
are missing memory barriers.
Let's document that, avoid the TLB flush where possible and use proper
explicit memory barriers where required. We shouldn't really care about the
additional memory barriers here, as we're not on extremely hot paths --
and we're getting rid of some TLB flushes.
We use a smp_mb() pair for handling concurrent pinning and a
smp_rmb()/smp_wmb() pair for handling the corner case of only temporary
PTE changes but permanent PageAnonExclusive changes.
One extreme example, whereby GUP-fast takes a R/O pin and KSM wants to
convert an exclusive anonymous page to a KSM page, and that page is already
mapped write-protected (-> no PTE change) would be:
Thread 0 (KSM) Thread 1 (GUP-fast)
(B1) Read the PTE
# (B2) skipped without FOLL_WRITE
(A1) Clear PTE
smp_mb()
(A2) Check pinned
(B3) Pin the mapped page
smp_mb()
(A3) Clear PageAnonExclusive
smp_wmb()
(A4) Restore PTE
(B4) Check if the PTE changed
smp_rmb()
(B5) Check PageAnonExclusive
Thread 1 will properly detect that PageAnonExclusive was cleared and
back off.
Note that we don't need a memory barrier between checking if the page is
pinned and clearing PageAnonExclusive, because stores are not
speculated.
The possible issues due to reordering are of theoretical nature so far
and attempts to reproduce the race failed.
Especially the "no PTE change" case isn't the common case, because we'd
need an exclusive anonymous page that's mapped R/O and the PTE is clean
in KSM code -- and using KSM with page pinning isn't extremely common.
Further, the clear+TLB flush we used for now implies a memory barrier.
So the problematic missing part should be the missing memory barrier
after pinning but before checking if the PTE changed.

When scanning an anon pmd to see if it's eligible for collapse, return
SCAN_PMD_MAPPED if the pmd already maps a hugepage. Note that
SCAN_PMD_MAPPED is different from SCAN_PAGE_COMPOUND used in the
file-collapse path, since the latter might identify pte-mapped compound
pages. This is required by MADV_COLLAPSE which necessarily needs to know
what hugepage-aligned/sized regions are already pmd-mapped.
In order to determine if a pmd already maps a hugepage, refactor
mm_find_pmd():
Return mm_find_pmd() to it's pre-commit f72e7dcdd252 ("mm: let mm_find_pmd
fix buggy race with THP fault") behavior. ksm was the only caller that
explicitly wanted a pte-mapping pmd, so open code the pte-mapping logic
there (pmd_present() and pmd_trans_huge() checks).
Undo revert change in commit f72e7dcdd252 ("mm: let mm_find_pmd fix buggy
race with THP fault") that open-coded split_huge_pmd_address() pmd lookup
and use mm_find_pmd() instead.

anon_vma->degree tracks the combined number of child anon_vmas and VMAs
that use the anon_vma as their ->anon_vma.
anon_vma_clone() then assumes that for any anon_vma attached to
src->anon_vma_chain other than src->anon_vma, it is impossible for it to
be a leaf node of the VMA tree, meaning that for such VMAs ->degree is
elevated by 1 because of a child anon_vma, meaning that if ->degree
equals 1 there are no VMAs that use the anon_vma as their ->anon_vma.
This assumption is wrong because the ->degree optimization leads to leaf
nodes being abandoned on anon_vma_clone() - an existing anon_vma is
reused and no new parent-child relationship is created. So it is
possible to reuse an anon_vma for one VMA while it is still tied to
another VMA.
This is an issue because is_mergeable_anon_vma() and its callers assume
that if two VMAs have the same ->anon_vma, the list of anon_vmas
attached to the VMAs is guaranteed to be the same. When this assumption
is violated, vma_merge() can merge pages into a VMA that is not attached
to the corresponding anon_vma, leading to dangling page->mapping
pointers that will be dereferenced during rmap walks.
Fix it by separately tracking the number of child anon_vmas and the
number of VMAs using the anon_vma as their ->anon_vma.

As an optimization for loops sequentially processing hugetlb address
ranges, huge_pmd_unshare would update a passed address if it unshared a
pmd. Updating a loop control variable outside the loop like this is
generally a bad idea. These loops are now using hugetlb_mask_last_page to
optimize scanning when non-present ptes are discovered. The same can be
done when huge_pmd_unshare returns 1 indicating a pmd was unshared.
Remove address update from huge_pmd_unshare. Change the passed argument
type and update all callers. In loops sequentially processing addresses
use hugetlb_mask_last_page to update address if pmd is unshared.

Device memory that is cache coherent from device and CPU point of view.
This is used on platforms that have an advanced system bus (like CAPI or

one should be allowed to pin such memory so that it can always be evicted.

Commit e5251fd43007 ("mm/hugetlb: introduce set_huge_swap_pte_at()
helper") add set_huge_swap_pte_at() to handle swap entries on
architectures that support hugepages consisting of contiguous ptes. And
currently the set_huge_swap_pte_at() is only overridden by arm64.
set_huge_swap_pte_at() provide a sz parameter to help determine the number
of entries to be updated. But in fact, all hugetlb swap entries contain
pfn information, so we can find the corresponding folio through the pfn
recorded in the swap entry, then the folio_size() is the number of entries
that need to be updated.
And considering that users will easily cause bugs by ignoring the
difference between set_huge_swap_pte_at() and set_huge_pte_at(). Let's
handle swap entries in set_huge_pte_at() and remove the
set_huge_swap_pte_at(), then we can call set_huge_pte_at() anywhere, which
simplifies our coding.

According to previous discussion [1], there are so many levels of
indenting to handle the hugetlb case when unmapping or migration. We can
combine folio_test_anon() and huge_pmd_unshare() to save one level of
indenting, by adding a local variable and moving the VM_BUG_ON() a little
forward.
No intended functional changes in this patch.

The subpage we calculate is an invalid pointer for device private pages,
because device private pages are mapped via non-present device private
entries, not ordinary present PTEs.
Let's just not compute broken pointers and fixup later. Move the proper
assignment of the correct subpage to the beginning of the function and
assert that we really only have a single page in our folio.
This currently results in a BUG when tying to compute anon_exclusive,

The rmap locks(i_mmap_rwsem and anon_vma->root->rwsem) could be contended
under memory pressure if processes keep working on their vmas(e.g., fork,
mmap, munmap). It makes reclaim path stuck. In our real workload traces,
we see kswapd is waiting the lock for 300ms+(worst case, a sec) and it
makes other processes entering direct reclaim, which were also stuck on
the lock.
This patch makes lru aging path try_lock mode like shink_page_list so the
reclaim context will keep working with next lru pages without being stuck.
if it found the rmap lock contended, it rotates the page back to head of
lru in both active/inactive lrus to make them consistent behavior, which
is basic starting point rather than adding more heristic.
Since this patch introduces a new "contended" field as out-param along
with try_lock in-param in rmap_walk_control, it's not immutable any longer
if the try_lock is set so remove const keywords on rmap related functions.
Since rmap walking is already expensive operation, I doubt the const
would help sizable benefit( And we didn't have it until 5.17).
In a heavy app workload in Android, trace shows following statistics. It
almost removes rmap lock contention from reclaim path.

On some architectures (like ARM64), it can support CONT-PTE/PMD size
hugetlb, which means it can support not only PMD/PUD size hugetlb: 2M and
1G, but also CONT-PTE/PMD size: 64K and 32M if a 4K page size specified.
When unmapping a hugetlb page, we will get the relevant page table entry
by huge_pte_offset() only once to nuke it. This is correct for PMD or PUD
size hugetlb, since they always contain only one pmd entry or pud entry in
the page table.
However this is incorrect for CONT-PTE and CONT-PMD size hugetlb, since
they can contain several continuous pte or pmd entry with same page table
attributes, so we will nuke only one pte or pmd entry for this
CONT-PTE/PMD size hugetlb page.
And now try_to_unmap() is only passed a hugetlb page in the case where the
hugetlb page is poisoned. Which means now we will unmap only one pte
entry for a CONT-PTE or CONT-PMD size poisoned hugetlb page, and we can
still access other subpages of a CONT-PTE or CONT-PMD size poisoned
hugetlb page, which will cause serious issues possibly.
So we should change to use huge_ptep_clear_flush() to nuke the hugetlb
page table to fix this issue, which already considered CONT-PTE and
CONT-PMD size hugetlb.
We've already used set_huge_swap_pte_at() to set a poisoned swap entry for
a poisoned hugetlb page. Meanwhile adding a VM_BUG_ON() to make sure the
passed hugetlb page is poisoned in try_to_unmap().

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.

Now we will use flush_cache_page() to flush cache for anonymous hugetlb
pages when unmapping or migrating a hugetlb page mapping, but the
flush_cache_page() only handles a PAGE_SIZE range on some architectures
(like arm32, arc and so on), which will cause potential cache issues.
Thus change to use flush_cache_range() to cover the whole size of a
hugetlb page.

The cache level flush will always be first when changing an existing
virtual–>physical mapping to a new value, since this allows us to
properly handle systems whose caches are strict and require a
virtual–>physical translation to exist for a virtual address. So we
should move the cache flushing before huge_pmd_unshare().
As Muchun pointed out[1], now the architectures whose supporting hugetlb
PMD sharing have no cache flush issues in practice. But I think we should
still follow the cache/TLB flushing rules when changing a valid virtual
address mapping in case of potential issues in future.

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.

[3] https://lore.kernel.org/r/3ae33b08-d9ef-f846-56fb-645e3b9b4c66@redhat.com
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.

Let's fail right away in case we cannot clear PG_anon_exclusive because
the anon THP may be pinned. Right now, we continue trying to install
migration entries and the caller of try_to_migrate() will realize that the
page is still mapped and has to restore the migration entries. Let's just
fail fast just like for PTE migration entries.

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.

New anonymous pages are always mapped natively: only THP/khugepaged code
maps a new compound anonymous page and passes "true". Otherwise, we're
just dealing with simple, non-compound pages.
Let's give the interface clearer semantics and document these. Remove the
PageTransCompound() sanity check from page_add_new_anon_rmap().

... and instead convert page_add_anon_rmap() to accept flags.
Passing flags instead of bools is usually nicer either way, and we want to
more often also pass RMAP_EXCLUSIVE in follow up patches when detecting
that an anonymous page is exclusive: for example, when restoring an
anonymous page from a writable migration entry.
This is a preparation for marking an anonymous page inside
page_add_anon_rmap() as exclusive when RMAP_EXCLUSIVE is passed.

Patch series "mm: COW fixes part 2: reliable GUP pins of anonymous pages", v4.
This series is the result of the discussion on the previous approach [2].
More information on the general COW issues can be found there. It is
based on latest linus/master (post v5.17, with relevant core-MM changes
for v5.18-rc1).
This series fixes memory corruptions when a GUP pin (FOLL_PIN) 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
pin lost synchronicity with the pages mapped into the page tables.
This issue, including other related COW issues, has been summarized in [3]
under 3):
"
3. Intra Process Memory Corruptions due to Wrong COW (FOLL_PIN)
page_maybe_dma_pinned() is used to check if a page may be pinned for
DMA (using FOLL_PIN instead of FOLL_GET). While false positives are
tolerable, false negatives are problematic: pages that are pinned for
DMA must not be added to the swapcache. If it happens, the (now pinned)
page could be faulted back from the swapcache into page tables
read-only. Future write-access would detect the pinning and COW the
page, losing synchronicity. For the interested reader, this is nicely
documented in feb889fb40fa ("mm: don't put pinned pages into the swap
cache").
Peter reports [8] that page_maybe_dma_pinned() as used is racy in some
cases and can result in a violation of the documented semantics: giving
false negatives because of the race.
There are cases where we call it without properly taking a per-process
sequence lock, turning the usage of page_maybe_dma_pinned() racy. While
one case (clear_refs SOFTDIRTY tracking, see below) seems to be easy to
handle, there is especially one rmap case (shrink_page_list) that's hard
to fix: in the rmap world, we're not limited to a single process.
The shrink_page_list() issue is really subtle. If we race with
someone pinning a page, we can trigger the same issue as in the FOLL_GET
case. See the detail section at the end of this mail on a discussion
how bad this can bite us with VFIO or other FOLL_PIN user.
It's harder to reproduce, but I managed to modify the O_DIRECT
reproducer to use io_uring fixed buffers [15] instead, which ends up
using FOLL_PIN | FOLL_WRITE | FOLL_LONGTERM to pin buffer pages and can
similarly trigger a loss of synchronicity and consequently a memory
corruption.
Again, 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.
"
This series makes GUP pins (R/O and R/W) on anonymous pages fully
reliable, especially also taking care of concurrent pinning via GUP-fast,
for example, also fully fixing an issue reported regarding NUMA balancing
[4] recently. While doing that, it further reduces "unnecessary COWs",
especially when we don't fork()/KSM and don't swapout, and fixes the COW
security for hugetlb for FOLL_PIN.
In summary, we track via a pageflag (PG_anon_exclusive) whether a mapped
anonymous page is exclusive. Exclusive anonymous pages that are mapped
R/O can directly be mapped R/W by the COW logic in the write fault
handler. Exclusive anonymous pages that want to be shared (fork(), KSM)
first have to be marked shared -- which will fail if there are GUP pins on
the page. GUP is only allowed to take a pin on anonymous pages that are
exclusive. The PT lock is the primary mechanism to synchronize
modifications of PG_anon_exclusive. We synchronize against GUP-fast
either via the src_mm->write_protect_seq (during fork()) or via
clear/invalidate+flush of the relevant page table entry.
Special care has to be taken about swap, migration, and THPs (whereby a
PMD-mapping can be converted to a PTE mapping and we have to track
information for subpages). Besides these, we let the rmap code handle
most magic. For reliable R/O pins of anonymous pages, we need
FAULT_FLAG_UNSHARE logic as part of our previous approach [2], however,
it's now 100% mapcount free and I further simplified it a bit.
#1 is a fix
#3-#10 are mostly rmap preparations for PG_anon_exclusive handling
#11 introduces PG_anon_exclusive
#12 uses PG_anon_exclusive and make R/W pins of anonymous pages
reliable
#13 is a preparation for reliable R/O pins
#14 and #15 is reused/modified GUP-triggered unsharing for R/O GUP pins
make R/O pins of anonymous pages reliable
#16 adds sanity check when (un)pinning anonymous pages

The page_mkclean_one() is supposed to be used with the pfn that has a
associated struct page, but not all the pfns (e.g. DAX) have a struct
page. Introduce a new function pfn_mkclean_range() to cleans the PTEs
(including PMDs) mapped with range of pfns which has no struct page
associated with them. This helper will be used by DAX device in the next
patch to make pfns clean.

Patch series "Fix some bugs related to ramp and dax", v7.
Patch 1-2 fix a cache flush bug, because subsequent patches depend on
those on those changes, there are placed in this series. Patch 3-4 are
preparation for fixing a dax bug in patch 5. Patch 6 is code cleanup
since the previous patch removes the usage of follow_invalidate_pte().
This patch (of 6):
The flush_cache_page() only remove a PAGE_SIZE sized range from the cache.
However, it does not cover the full pages in a THP except a head page.
Replace it with flush_cache_range() to fix this issue. At least, no
problems were found due to this. Maybe because the architectures that
have virtual indexed caches is less.

The access to mlock_pvec is protected by disabling preemption via
get_cpu_var() or implicit by having preemption disabled by the caller
(in mlock_page_drain() case). This breaks on PREEMPT_RT since
folio_lruvec_lock_irq() acquires a sleeping lock in this section.
Create struct mlock_pvec which consits of the local_lock_t and the
pagevec. Acquire the local_lock() before accessing the per-CPU pagevec.
Replace mlock_page_drain() with a _local() version which is invoked on
the local CPU and acquires the local_lock_t and a _remote() version
which uses the pagevec from a remote CPU which offline.

Problem:
=======
Userspace might read the zero-page instead of actual data from a direct IO
read on a block device if the buffers have been called madvise(MADV_FREE)
on earlier (this is discussed below) due to a race between page reclaim on
MADV_FREE and blkdev direct IO read.
- Race condition:
==============
During page reclaim, the MADV_FREE page check in try_to_unmap_one() checks
if the page is not dirty, then discards its rmap PTE(s) (vs. remap back
if the page is dirty).
However, after try_to_unmap_one() returns to shrink_page_list(), it might
keep the page _anyway_ if page_ref_freeze() fails (it expects exactly
_one_ page reference, from the isolation for page reclaim).
Well, blkdev_direct_IO() gets references for all pages, and on READ
operations it only sets them dirty _later_.
So, if MADV_FREE'd pages (i.e., not dirty) are used as buffers for direct
IO read from block devices, and page reclaim happens during
__blkdev_direct_IO[_simple]() exactly AFTER bio_iov_iter_get_pages()
returns, but BEFORE the pages are set dirty, the situation happens.
The direct IO read eventually completes. Now, when userspace reads the
buffers, the PTE is no longer there and the page fault handler
do_anonymous_page() services that with the zero-page, NOT the data!
A synthetic reproducer is provided.
- Page faults:
===========
If page reclaim happens BEFORE bio_iov_iter_get_pages() the issue doesn't
happen, because that faults-in all pages as writeable, so
do_anonymous_page() sets up a new page/rmap/PTE, and that is used by
direct IO. The userspace reads don't fault as the PTE is there (thus
zero-page is not used/setup).
But if page reclaim happens AFTER it / BEFORE setting pages dirty, the PTE
is no longer there; the subsequent page faults can't help:
The data-read from the block device probably won't generate faults due to
DMA (no MMU) but even in the case it wouldn't use DMA, that happens on
different virtual addresses (not user-mapped addresses) because `struct
bio_vec` stores `struct page` to figure addresses out (which are different
from user-mapped addresses) for the read.
Thus userspace reads (to user-mapped addresses) still fault, then
do_anonymous_page() gets another `struct page` that would address/ map to
other memory than the `struct page` used by `struct bio_vec` for the read.
(The original `struct page` is not available, since it wasn't freed, as
page_ref_freeze() failed due to more page refs. And even if it were
available, its data cannot be trusted anymore.)
Solution:
========
One solution is to check for the expected page reference count in
try_to_unmap_one().
There should be one reference from the isolation (that is also checked in
shrink_page_list() with page_ref_freeze()) plus one or more references
from page mapping(s) (put in discard: label). Further references mean
that rmap/PTE cannot be unmapped/nuked.
(Note: there might be more than one reference from mapping due to
fork()/clone() without CLONE_VM, which use the same `struct page` for
references, until the copy-on-write page gets copied.)
So, additional page references (e.g., from direct IO read) now prevent the
rmap/PTE from being unmapped/dropped; similarly to the page is not freed
per shrink_page_list()/page_ref_freeze()).
- Races and Barriers:
==================
The new check in try_to_unmap_one() should be safe in races with
bio_iov_iter_get_pages() in get_user_pages() fast and slow paths, as it's
done under the PTE lock.
The fast path doesn't take the lock, but it checks if the PTE has changed
and if so, it drops the reference and leaves the page for the slow path
(which does take that lock).
The fast path requires synchronization w/ full memory barrier: it writes
the page reference count first then it reads the PTE later, while
try_to_unmap() writes PTE first then it reads page refcount.
And a second barrier is needed, as the page dirty flag should not be read
before the page reference count (as in __remove_mapping()). (This can be
a load memory barrier only; no writes are involved.)

- Huge Pages:
==========
Regarding transparent hugepages, that logic shouldn't change, as MADV_FREE
(aka lazyfree) pages are PageAnon() && !PageSwapBacked()
(madvise_free_pte_range() -> mark_page_lazyfree() -> lru_lazyfree_fn())
thus should reach shrink_page_list() -> split_huge_page_to_list() before
try_to_unmap[_one](), so it deals with normal pages only.
(And in case unlikely/TTU_SPLIT_HUGE_PMD/split_huge_pmd_address() happens,
which should not or be rare, the page refcount should be greater than
mapcount: the head page is referenced by tail pages. That also prevents
checking the head `page` then incorrectly call page_remove_rmap(subpage)
for a tail page, that isn't even in the shrink_page_list()'s page_list (an
effect of split huge pmd/pmvw), as it might happen today in this unlikely
scenario.)
MADV_FREE'd buffers:
===================
So, back to the "if MADV_FREE pages are used as buffers" note. The case
is arguable, and subject to multiple interpretations.
The madvise(2) manual page on the MADV_FREE advice value says:
1) 'After a successful MADV_FREE ... data will be lost when
the kernel frees the pages.'
2) 'the free operation will be canceled if the caller writes
into the page' / 'subsequent writes ... will succeed and
then [the] kernel cannot free those dirtied pages'
3) 'If there is no subsequent write, the kernel can free the
pages at any time.'
Thoughts, questions, considerations... respectively:
1) Since the kernel didn't actually free the page (page_ref_freeze()
failed), should the data not have been lost? (on userspace read.)
2) Should writes performed by the direct IO read be able to cancel
the free operation?
- Should the direct IO read be considered as 'the caller' too,
as it's been requested by 'the caller'?
- Should the bio technique to dirty pages on return to userspace
(bio_check_pages_dirty() is called/used by __blkdev_direct_IO())
be considered in another/special way here?
3) Should an upcoming write from a previously requested direct IO
read be considered as a subsequent write, so the kernel should
not free the pages? (as it's known at the time of page reclaim.)
And lastly:
Technically, the last point would seem a reasonable consideration and
balance, as the madvise(2) manual page apparently (and fairly) seem to
assume that 'writes' are memory access from the userspace process (not
explicitly considering writes from the kernel or its corner cases; again,
fairly).. plus the kernel fix implementation for the corner case of the
largely 'non-atomic write' encompassed by a direct IO read operation, is
relatively simple; and it helps.

Ceph/TCMalloc:
=============
For documentation purposes, the use case driving the analysis/fix is Ceph
on Ubuntu 18.04, as the TCMalloc library there still uses MADV_FREE to
release unused memory to the system from the mmap'ed page heap (might be
committed back/used again; it's not munmap'ed.) - PageHeap::DecommitSpan()
-> TCMalloc_SystemRelease() -> madvise() - PageHeap::CommitSpan() ->
TCMalloc_SystemCommit() -> do nothing.
Note: TCMalloc switched back to MADV_DONTNEED a few commits after the
release in Ubuntu 18.04 (google-perftools/gperftools 2.5), so the issue
just 'disappeared' on Ceph on later Ubuntu releases but is still present
in the kernel, and can be hit by other use cases.
The observed issue seems to be the old Ceph bug #22464 [1], where checksum
mismatches are observed (and instrumentation with buffer dumps shows
zero-pages read from mmap'ed/MADV_FREE'd page ranges).
The issue in Ceph was reasonably deemed a kernel bug (comment #50) and
mostly worked around with a retry mechanism, but other parts of Ceph could
still hit that (rocksdb). Anyway, it's less likely to be hit again as
TCMalloc switched out of MADV_FREE by default.
(Some kernel versions/reports from the Ceph bug, and relation with
the MADV_FREE introduction/changes; TCMalloc versions not checked.)
- 4.4 good
- 4.5 (madv_free: introduction)
- 4.9 bad
- 4.10 good? maybe a swapless system
- 4.12 (madv_free: no longer free instantly on swapless systems)
- 4.13 bad

This adds two trace events for base page and HugeTLB page migrations.
These events, closely follow the implementation details like setting and
removing of PTE migration entries, which are essential operations for
migration. The new CREATE_TRACE_POINTS in <mm/rmap.c> covers both
<events/migration.h> and <events/tlb.h> based trace events. Hence drop
redundant CREATE_TRACE_POINTS from other places which could have otherwise
conflicted during build.

NR_FILE_MAPPED accounting in mm/rmap.c (for /proc/meminfo "Mapped" and
/proc/vmstat "nr_mapped" and the memcg's memory.stat "mapped_file") is
slightly flawed for file or shmem huge pages.
It is well thought out, and looks convincing, but there's a racy case when
the careful counting in page_remove_file_rmap() (without page lock) gets
discarded. So that in a workload like two "make -j20" kernel builds under
memory pressure, with cc1 on hugepage text, "Mapped" can easily grow by a
spurious 5MB or more on each iteration, ending up implausibly bigger than
most other numbers in /proc/meminfo. And, hypothetically, might grow to
the point of seriously interfering in mm/vmscan.c's heuristics, which do
take NR_FILE_MAPPED into some consideration.
Fixed by moving the __mod_lruvec_page_state() down to where it will not be
missed before return (and I've grown a bit tired of that oft-repeated
but-not-everywhere comment on the __ness: it gets lost in the move here).
Does page_add_file_rmap() need the same change? I suspect not, because
page lock is held in all relevant cases, and its skipping case looks safe;
but it's much easier to be sure, if we do make the same change.

obvious they're bytes.
- a_ops->invalidatepage() becomes ->invalidate_folio() and has a

- a_ops->launder_page() becomes ->launder_folio()
- a_ops->set_page_dirty() becomes ->dirty_folio() and adds the

PageDoubleMap is maintained differently for anon and for shmem+file: the
shmem+file one was never cleared, because a safe place to do so could
not be found; so it would blight future use of the cached hugepage until
evicted.
See https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/1571938066-29031-1-git-send-email-yang.shi@linux.alibaba.com/
But page_add_file_rmap() does provide a safe place to do so (though later
than one might wish): allowing testing to return to an initial state
without a damaging drop_caches.

The rmap walking functions do not modify the rmap_walk_control, and
page_idle_clear_pte_refs() takes advantage of that to move construction
of the rmap_walk_control to compile time. This lets us remove an
unclean cast.

This ripples all the way through to every calling and called function
from rmap.

Move the prototype from mm.h to mm/internal.h and convert all callers
to pass a folio.

Add back page_lock_anon_vma_read() as a wrapper. This saves a few calls
to compound_head(). If any callers were passing a tail page before,
this would have failed to lock the anon VMA as page->mapping is not
valid for tail pages.

Move the PageTail check earlier so we can avoid even taking the folio
lock on tail pages. Otherwise, this is a straightforward use of
folios throughout.

Convert the callers to pass a folio and the try_to_migrate_one()
worker to use a folio throughout. Fixes an assumption that a
folio must be <= PMD size.
