This patch introduces the 1st user of pte marker: the uffd-wp marker.
When the pte marker is installed with the uffd-wp bit set, it means this
pte was wr-protected by uffd.
We will use this special pte to arm the ptes that got either unmapped or
swapped out for a file-backed region that was previously wr-protected.
This special pte could trigger a page fault just like swap entries.
This idea is greatly inspired by Hugh and Andrea in the discussion, which
is referenced in the links below.
Some helpers are introduced to detect whether a swap pte is uffd
wr-protected. After the pte marker introduced, one swap pte can be
wr-protected in two forms: either it is a normal swap pte and it has
_PAGE_SWP_UFFD_WP set, or it's a pte marker that has PTE_MARKER_UFFD_WP
set.

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

Patch series "userfaultfd-wp: Support shmem and hugetlbfs", v8.
Overview
========
Userfaultfd-wp anonymous support was merged two years ago. There're quite
a few applications that started to leverage this capability either to take
snapshots for user-app memory, or use it for full user controled swapping.
This series tries to complete the feature for uffd-wp so as to cover all
the RAM-based memory types. So far uffd-wp is the only missing piece of
the rest features (uffd-missing & uffd-minor mode).
One major reason to do so is that anonymous pages are sometimes not
satisfying the need of applications, and there're growing users of either
shmem and hugetlbfs for either sharing purpose (e.g., sharing guest mem
between hypervisor process and device emulation process, shmem local live
migration for upgrades), or for performance on tlb hits.
All these mean that if a uffd-wp app wants to switch to any of the memory
types, it'll stop working. I think it's worthwhile to have the kernel to
cover all these aspects.
This series chose to protect pages in pte level not page level.
One major reason is safety. I have no idea how we could make it safe if
any of the uffd-privileged app can wr-protect a page that any other
application can use. It means this app can block any process potentially
for any time it wants.
The other reason is that it aligns very well with not only the anonymous
uffd-wp solution, but also uffd as a whole. For example, userfaultfd is
implemented fundamentally based on VMAs. We set flags to VMAs showing the
status of uffd tracking. For another per-page based protection solution,
it'll be crossing the fundation line on VMA-based, and it could simply be
too far away already from what's called userfaultfd.
PTE markers
===========
The patchset is based on the idea called PTE markers. It was discussed in
one of the mm alignment sessions, proposed starting from v6, and this is
the 2nd version of it using PTE marker idea.
PTE marker is a new type of swap entry that is ony applicable to file
backed memories like shmem and hugetlbfs. It's used to persist some
pte-level information even if the original present ptes in pgtable are
zapped.
Logically pte markers can store more than uffd-wp information, but so far
only one bit is used for uffd-wp purpose. When the pte marker is
installed with uffd-wp bit set, it means this pte is wr-protected by uffd.
It solves the problem on e.g. file-backed memory mapped ptes got zapped
due to any reason (e.g. thp split, or swapped out), we can still keep the
wr-protect information in the ptes. Then when the page fault triggers
again, we'll know this pte is wr-protected so we can treat the pte the
same as a normal uffd wr-protected pte.
The extra information is encoded into the swap entry, or swp_offset to be
explicit, with the swp_type being PTE_MARKER. So far uffd-wp only uses
one bit out of the swap entry, the rest bits of swp_offset are still
reserved for other purposes.
There're two configs to enable/disable PTE markers:
CONFIG_PTE_MARKER
CONFIG_PTE_MARKER_UFFD_WP
We can set !PTE_MARKER to completely disable all the PTE markers, along
with uffd-wp support. I made two config so we can also enable PTE marker
but disable uffd-wp file-backed for other purposes. At the end of current
series, I'll enable CONFIG_PTE_MARKER by default, but that patch is
standalone and if anyone worries about having it by default, we can also
consider turn it off by dropping that oneliner patch. So far I don't see
a huge risk of doing so, so I kept that patch.
In most cases, PTE markers should be treated as none ptes. It is because
that unlike most of the other swap entry types, there's no PFN or block
offset information encoded into PTE markers but some extra well-defined
bits showing the status of the pte. These bits should only be used as
extra data when servicing an upcoming page fault, and then we behave as if
it's a none pte.
I did spend a lot of time observing all the pte_none() users this time.
It is indeed a challenge because there're a lot, and I hope I didn't miss
a single of them when we should take care of pte markers. Luckily, I
don't think it'll need to be considered in many cases, for example: boot
code, arch code (especially non-x86), kernel-only page handlings (e.g.
CPA), or device driver codes when we're tackling with pure PFN mappings.
I introduced pte_none_mostly() in this series when we need to handle pte
markers the same as none pte, the "mostly" is the other way to write
"either none pte or a pte marker".
I didn't replace pte_none() to cover pte markers for below reasons:
- Very rare case of pte_none() callers will handle pte markers. E.g., all
the kernel pages do not require knowledge of pte markers. So we don't
pollute the major use cases.
- Unconditionally change pte_none() semantics could confuse people, because
pte_none() existed for so long a time.
- Unconditionally change pte_none() semantics could make pte_none() slower
even if in many cases pte markers do not exist.
- There're cases where we'd like to handle pte markers differntly from
pte_none(), so a full replace is also impossible. E.g. khugepaged should
still treat pte markers as normal swap ptes rather than none ptes, because
pte markers will always need a fault-in to merge the marker with a valid
pte. Or the smap code will need to parse PTE markers not none ptes.

[0] https://github.com/xzpeter/clibs/tree/master/uffd-test
[1] https://github.com/xzpeter/umap-apps/tree/peter
[2] https://github.com/xzpeter/umap/tree/peter-shmem-hugetlbfs
This patch (of 23):
Introduces a new swap entry type called PTE_MARKER. It can be installed
for any pte that maps a file-backed memory when the pte is temporarily
zapped, so as to maintain per-pte information.
The information that kept in the pte is called a "marker". Here we define
the marker as "unsigned long" just to match pgoff_t, however it will only
work if it still fits in swp_offset(), which is e.g. currently 58 bits on
x86_64.
A new config CONFIG_PTE_MARKER is introduced too; it's by default off. A
bunch of helpers are defined altogether to service the rest of the pte
marker code.

Patch series "mm/damon: Support online tuning".
Effects of DAMON and DAMON-based Operation Schemes highly depends on the
configurations. Wrong configurations could even result in unexpected
efficiency degradations. For finding a best configuration, repeating
incremental configuration changes and results measurements, in other
words, online tuning, could be helpful.
Nevertheless, DAMON kernel API supports only restrictive online tuning.
Worse yet, the sysfs-based DAMON user interface doesn't support online
tuning at all. DAMON_RECLAIM also doesn't support online tuning.
This patchset makes the DAMON kernel API, DAMON sysfs interface, and
DAMON_RECLAIM supports online tuning.
Sequence of patches
-------------------
First two patches enhance DAMON online tuning for kernel API users.
Specifically, patch 1 let kernel API users to be able to do DAMON online
tuning without a restriction, and patch 2 makes error handling easier.
Following seven patches (patches 3-9) refactor code for better readability
and easier reuse of code fragments that will be useful for online tuning
support.
Patch 10 introduces DAMON callback based user request handling structure
for DAMON sysfs interface, and patch 11 enables DAMON online tuning via
DAMON sysfs interface. Documentation patch (patch 12) for usage of it
follows.
Patch 13 enables online tuning of DAMON_RECLAIM and finally patch 14
documents the DAMON_RECLAIM online tuning usage.
This patch (of 14):
For updating input parameters for running DAMON contexts, DAMON kernel API
users can use the contexts' callbacks, as it is the safe place for context
internal data accesses. When the context has DAMON-based operation
schemes and all schemes are deactivated due to their watermarks, however,
DAMON does nothing but only watermarks checks. As a result, no callbacks
will be called back, and therefore the kernel API users cannot update the
input parameters including monitoring attributes, DAMON-based operation
schemes, and watermarks.
To let users easily update such DAMON input parameters in such a case,
this commit adds a new callback, 'after_wmarks_check()'. It will be
called after each watermarks check. Users can do the online input
parameters update in the callback even under the schemes deactivated case.

A pmd migration entry should first be a swap pmd,so use is_swap_pmd(pmd)
instead of !pmd_present(pmd).
On the other hand, some architecture (MIPS for example) may misjudge a
pmd_none entry as a pmd migration entry.

When CONFIG_KASAN_HW_TAGS is enabled we currently increase the minimum
slab alignment to 16. This happens even if MTE is not supported in
hardware or disabled via kasan=off, which creates an unnecessary memory
overhead in those cases. Eliminate this overhead by making the minimum
slab alignment a runtime property and only aligning to 16 if KASAN is
enabled at runtime.
On a DragonBoard 845c (non-MTE hardware) with a kernel built with
CONFIG_KASAN_HW_TAGS, waiting for quiescence after a full Android boot I
see the following Slab measurements in /proc/meminfo (median of 3
reboots):
Before: 169020 kB
After: 167304 kB

An inclusion of cache.h in printk.h was added in 2014 in commit
c28aa1f0a847 ("printk/cache: mark printk_once test variable
__read_mostly") in order to bring in the definition of __read_mostly. The
usage of __read_mostly was later removed in commit 3ec25826ae33 ("printk:
Tie printk_once / printk_deferred_once into .data.once for reset") which
made the inclusion of cache.h unnecessary, so remove it.
We have a small amount of code that depended on the inclusion of cache.h
from printk.h; fix that code to include the appropriate header.
This fixes a circular inclusion on arm64 (linux/printk.h -> linux/cache.h
-> asm/cache.h -> linux/kasan-enabled.h -> linux/static_key.h ->
linux/jump_label.h -> linux/bug.h -> asm/bug.h -> linux/printk.h) that
would otherwise be introduced by the next patch.
Build tested using {allyesconfig,defconfig} x {arm64,x86_64}.

monitoring
Patch series "support fixed virtual address ranges monitoring".
The monitoring operations set for virtual address spaces automatically
updates the monitoring target regions to cover entire mappings of the
virtual address spaces as much as possible. Some users could have more
information about their programs than kernel and therefore have interest
in not entire regions but only specific regions. For such cases, the
automatic monitoring target regions updates are only unnecessary overhead
or distractions.
This patchset adds supports for the use case on DAMON's kernel API
(DAMON_OPS_FVADDR) and sysfs interface ('fvaddr' keyword for 'operations'
sysfs file).
This patch (of 3):
The monitoring operations set for virtual address spaces automatically
updates the monitoring target regions to cover entire mappings of the
virtual address spaces as much as possible. Some users could have more
information about their programs than kernel and therefore have interest
in not entire regions but only specific regions. For such cases, the
automatic monitoring target regions updates are only unnecessary overheads
or distractions.
For such cases, DAMON's API users can simply set the '->init()' and
'->update()' of the DAMON context's '->ops' NULL, and set the target
monitoring regions when creating the context. But, that would be a dirty
hack. Worse yet, the hack is unavailable for DAMON user space interface
users.
To support the use case in a clean way that can easily exported to the
user space, this commit adds another monitoring operations set called
'fvaddr', which is same to 'vaddr' but does not automatically update the
monitoring regions. Instead, it will only respect the virtual address
regions which have explicitly passed at the initial context creation.
Note that this commit leave sysfs interface not supporting the feature
yet. The support will be made in a following commit.

Patch series "mm/damon: allow users know which monitoring ops are available".
DAMON users can configure it for vaious address spaces including virtual
address spaces and the physical address space by setting its monitoring
operations set with appropriate one for their purpose. However, there is
no celan and simple way to know exactly which monitoring operations sets
are available on the currently running kernel.
This patchset adds functions for the purpose on DAMON's kernel API
('damon_is_registered_ops()') and sysfs interface ('avail_operations' file
under each context directory).
This patch (of 4):
To know if a specific 'damon_operations' is registered, users need to
check the kernel config or try 'damon_select_ops()' with the ops of the
question, and then see if it successes. In the latter case, the user
should also revert the change. To make the process simple and convenient,
this commit adds a function for checking if a specific 'damon_operations'
is registered or not.

Calls to change_protection_range() on THP can trigger, at least on x86,
two TLB flushes for one page: one immediately, when pmdp_invalidate() is
called by change_huge_pmd(), and then another one later (that can be
batched) when change_protection_range() finishes.
The first TLB flush is only necessary to prevent the dirty bit (and with a
lesser importance the access bit) from changing while the PTE is modified.
However, this is not necessary as the x86 CPUs set the dirty-bit
atomically with an additional check that the PTE is (still) present. One
caveat is Intel's Knights Landing that has a bug and does not do so.
Leverage this behavior to eliminate the unnecessary TLB flush in
change_huge_pmd(). Introduce a new arch specific pmdp_invalidate_ad()
that only invalidates the access and dirty bit from further changes.

Currently, using mprotect() to unprotect a memory region or uffd to
unprotect a memory region causes a TLB flush. However, in such cases the
PTE is often not modified (i.e., remain RO) and therefore not TLB flush is
needed.
Add an arch-specific pte_needs_flush() which tells whether a TLB flush is
needed based on the old PTE and the new one. Implement an x86
pte_needs_flush().
Always flush the TLB when it is architecturally needed even when skipping
a TLB flush might only result in a spurious page-faults by skipping the
flush.
Even with such conservative manner, we can in the future further refine
the checks to test whether a PTE is present by only considering the
architectural _PAGE_PRESENT flag instead of {pte|pmd}_preesnt(). For not
be careful and use the latter.

Patch series "mm/mprotect: avoid unnecessary TLB flushes", v6.
This patchset is intended to remove unnecessary TLB flushes during
mprotect() syscalls. Once this patch-set make it through, similar and
further optimizations for MADV_COLD and userfaultfd would be possible.
Basically, there are 3 optimizations in this patch-set:
1. Use TLB batching infrastructure to batch flushes across VMAs and do
better/fewer flushes. This would also be handy for later userfaultfd
enhancements.
2. Avoid unnecessary TLB flushes. This optimization is the one that
provides most of the performance benefits. Unlike previous versions,
we now only avoid flushes that would not result in spurious
page-faults.
3. Avoiding TLB flushes on change_huge_pmd() that are only needed to
prevent the A/D bits from changing.
Andrew asked for some benchmark numbers. I do not have an easy
determinate macrobenchmark in which it is easy to show benefit. I
therefore ran a microbenchmark: a loop that does the following on
anonymous memory, just as a sanity check to see that time is saved by
avoiding TLB flushes. The loop goes:
mprotect(p, PAGE_SIZE, PROT_READ)
mprotect(p, PAGE_SIZE, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE)
*p = 0; // make the page writable
The test was run in KVM guest with 1 or 2 threads (the second thread was
busy-looping). I measured the time (cycles) of each operation:
1 thread 2 threads
mmots +patch mmots +patch
PROT_READ 3494 2725 (-22%) 8630 7788 (-10%)
PROT_READ|WRITE 3952 2724 (-31%) 9075 2865 (-68%)
[ mmots = v5.17-rc6-mmots-2022-03-06-20-38 ]
The exact numbers are really meaningless, but the benefit is clear. There
are 2 interesting results though.
(1) PROT_READ is cheaper, while one can expect it not to be affected.
This is presumably due to TLB miss that is saved
(2) Without memory access (*p = 0), the speedup of the patch is even
greater. In that scenario mprotect(PROT_READ) also avoids the TLB flush.
As a result both operations on the patched kernel take roughly ~1500
cycles (with either 1 or 2 threads), whereas on mmotm their cost is as
high as presented in the table.
This patch (of 3):
change_pXX_range() currently does not use mmu_gather, but instead
implements its own deferred TLB flushes scheme. This both complicates the
code, as developers need to be aware of different invalidation schemes,
and prevents opportunities to avoid TLB flushes or perform them in finer
granularity.
The use of mmu_gather for modified PTEs has benefits in various scenarios
even if pages are not released. For instance, if only a single page needs
to be flushed out of a range of many pages, only that page would be
flushed. If a THP page is flushed, on x86 a single TLB invlpg instruction
can be used instead of 512 instructions (or a full TLB flush, which would
Linux would actually use by default). mprotect() over multiple VMAs
requires a single flush.
Use mmu_gather in change_pXX_range(). As the pages are not released, only
record the flushed range using tlb_flush_pXX_range().
Handle THP similarly and get rid of flush_cache_range() which becomes
redundant since tlb_start_vma() calls it when needed.

Currently various places test if direct IO is possible on a file by
checking for the existence of the direct_IO address space operation.
This is a poor choice, as the direct_IO operation may not be used - it is
only used if the generic_file_*_iter functions are called for direct IO
and some filesystems - particularly NFS - don't do this.
Instead, introduce a new f_mode flag: FMODE_CAN_ODIRECT and change the
various places to check this (avoiding pointer dereferences).
do_dentry_open() will set this flag if ->direct_IO is present, so
filesystems do not need to be changed.
NFS *is* changed, to set the flag explicitly and discard the direct_IO
entry in the address_space_operations for files.
Other filesystems which currently use noop_direct_IO could usefully be
changed to set this flag instead.

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

The nfs_direct_IO() exists to support SWAP IO, but hasn't worked for a
while. We now need a ->swap_rw function which behaves slightly
differently, returning zero for success rather than a byte count.
So modify nfs_direct_IO accordingly, rename it, and use it as the
->swap_rw function.

swap currently uses ->readpage to read swap pages. This can only request
one page at a time from the filesystem, which is not most efficient.
swap uses ->direct_IO for writes which while this is adequate is an
inappropriate over-loading. ->direct_IO may need to had handle allocate
space for holes or other details that are not relevant for swap.
So this patch introduces a new address_space operation: ->swap_rw. In
this patch it is used for reads, and a subsequent patch will switch writes
to use it.
No filesystem yet supports ->swap_rw, but that is not a problem because
no filesystem actually works with filesystem-based swap.
Only two filesystems set SWP_FS_OPS:
- cifs sets the flag, but ->direct_IO always fails so swap cannot work.
- nfs sets the flag, but ->direct_IO calls generic_write_checks()
which has failed on swap files for several releases.
To ensure that a NULL ->swap_rw isn't called, ->activate_swap() for both
NFS and cifs are changed to fail if ->swap_rw is not set. This can be
removed if/when the function is added.
Future patches will restore swap-over-NFS functionality.
To submit an async read with ->swap_rw() we need to allocate a structure
to hold the kiocb and other details. swap_readpage() cannot handle
transient failure, so we create a mempool to provide the structures.

If a filesystem wishes to handle all swap IO itself (via ->direct_IO and
->readpage), rather than just providing devices addresses for
submit_bio(), SWP_FS_OPS must be set.
Currently the protocol for setting this it to have ->swap_activate return
zero. In that case SWP_FS_OPS is set, and add_swap_extent() is called for
the entire file.
This is a little clumsy as different return values for ->swap_activate
have quite different meanings, and it makes it hard to search for which
filesystems require SWP_FS_OPS to be set.
So remove the special meaning of a zero return, and require the filesystem
to set SWP_FS_OPS if it so desires, and to always call add_swap_extent()
as required.
Currently only NFS and CIFS return zero for add_swap_extent().

folios that are written to swap are owned by the MM subsystem - not any
filesystem.
When such a folio is passed to a filesystem to be written out to a
swap-file, the filesystem handles the data, but the folio itself does not
belong to the filesystem. So calling the filesystem's ->dirty_folio()
address_space operation makes no sense. This is for folios in the given
address space, and a folio to be written to swap does not exist in the
given address space.
So drop swap_dirty_folio() which calls the address-space's
->dirty_folio(), and always use noop_dirty_folio(), which is appropriate
for folios being swapped out.

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

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

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

anonymous page
Whenever GUP currently ends up taking a R/O pin on an anonymous page that
might be shared -- mapped R/O and !PageAnonExclusive() -- any write fault
on the page table entry will end up replacing the mapped anonymous page
due to COW, resulting in the GUP pin no longer being consistent with the
page actually mapped into the page table.
The possible ways to deal with this situation are:
(1) Ignore and pin -- what we do right now.
(2) Fail to pin -- which would be rather surprising to callers and
could break user space.
(3) Trigger unsharing and pin the now exclusive page -- reliable R/O
pins.
Let's implement 3) because it provides the clearest semantics and allows
for checking in unpin_user_pages() and friends for possible BUGs: when
trying to unpin a page that's no longer exclusive, clearly something went
very wrong and might result in memory corruptions that might be hard to
debug. So we better have a nice way to spot such issues.
This change implies that whenever user space *wrote* to a private mapping
(IOW, we have an anonymous page mapped), that GUP pins will always remain
consistent: reliable R/O GUP pins of anonymous pages.
As a side note, this commit fixes the COW security issue for hugetlb with
FOLL_PIN as documented in:
https://lore.kernel.org/r/3ae33b08-d9ef-f846-56fb-645e3b9b4c66@redhat.com
The vmsplice reproducer still applies, because vmsplice uses FOLL_GET
instead of FOLL_PIN.
Note that follow_huge_pmd() doesn't apply because we cannot end up in
there with FOLL_PIN.
This commit is heavily based on prototype patches by Andrea.

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

Let's 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.

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

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.

We want to pass the flags to more than one anon rmap function, getting rid
of special "do_page_add_anon_rmap()". So let's pass around a distinct
__bitwise type and refine documentation.

page_try_dup_anon_rmap()
... and move the special check for pinned pages into
page_try_dup_anon_rmap() to prepare for tracking exclusive anonymous pages
via a new pageflag, clearing it only after making sure that there are no
GUP pins on the anonymous page.
We really only care about pins on anonymous pages, because they are prone
to getting replaced in the COW handler once mapped R/O. For !anon pages
in cow-mappings (!VM_SHARED && VM_MAYWRITE) we shouldn't really care about
that, at least not that I could come up with an example.
Let's drop the is_cow_mapping() check from page_needs_cow_for_dma(), as we
know we're dealing with anonymous pages. Also, drop the handling of
pinned pages from copy_huge_pud() and add a comment if ever supporting
anonymous pages on the PUD level.
This is a preparation for tracking exclusivity of anonymous pages in the
rmap code, and disallowing marking a page shared (-> failing to duplicate)
if there are GUP pins on a page.

sure the mmap_lock is held in write mode.
This allows for add a VM_BUG_ON to page_needs_cow_for_dma() and properly
synchronizes concurrent fork() with GUP-fast of hugetlb pages, which will
be relevant for further changes.

Users may use ksm by calling madvise(, , MADV_MERGEABLE) when they want to
save memory, it's a tradeoff by suffering delay on ksm cow. Users can get
to know how much memory ksm saved by reading
/sys/kernel/mm/ksm/pages_sharing, but they don't know what's the costs of
ksm cow, and this is important of some delay sensitive tasks.
So add ksm cow events to help users evaluate whether or how to use ksm.
Also update Documentation/admin-guide/mm/ksm.rst with new added events.

Some applications or containers want to use KSM by calling madvise() to
advise areas of address space to be MERGEABLE. But they may not know
which applications are more likely to cause real merges in the
deployment. If this patch is applied, it helps them know their
corresponding number of merged pages, and then optimize their app code.
As current KSM only counts the number of KSM merging pages(e.g.
ksm_pages_sharing and ksm_pages_shared) of the whole system, we cannot see
the more fine-grained KSM merging, for the upper application optimization,
the merging area cannot be set easily according to the KSM page merging
probability of each process. Therefore, it is necessary to add extra
statistical means so that the upper level users can know the detailed KSM
merging information of each process.
We add a new proc file named as ksm_merging_pages under /proc/<pid>/ to
indicate the involved ksm merging pages of this process.

The stub for non_swap_entry() may not help much, because MAX_SWAPFILES has
already contained all the information to decide whether a swap entry is
real swap entry or pesudo ones (migrations, ...).
There can be some performance influences on non_swap_entry() with below
conditions all met:
!CONFIG_MIGRATION && !CONFIG_MEMORY_FAILURE && !CONFIG_DEVICE_PRIVATE
But that's definitely not the major config most machines will use, at the
meantime it's already in a slow path of swap entry (being parsed from a
swap pte), so IMHO it shouldn't be a major issue. Also according to the
analysis from Alistair, somehow the stub didn't do the job right [1].
To make the code cleaner, let's drop the stub.
[1] https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/8735ihbw6g.fsf@nvdebian.thelocal/
Note: the uffd-wp shmem & hugetlbfs series will need this patch to make
sure swap entries work as expected with below config as spotted by
Alistair:
!CONFIG_MIGRATION &&
!CONFIG_MEMORY_FAILURE &&
!CONFIG_DEVICE_PRIVATE &&
CONFIG_PTE_MARKER
(PS: this config should mostly never gonna happen, though, afaict..)

A compound devmap is a dev_pagemap with @vmemmap_shift > 0 and it means
that pages are mapped at a given huge page alignment and utilize uses
compound pages as opposed to order-0 pages.
Take advantage of the fact that most tail pages look the same (except the
first two) to minimize struct page overhead. Allocate a separate page for
the vmemmap area which contains the head page and separate for the next 64
pages. The rest of the subsections then reuse this tail vmemmap page to
initialize the rest of the tail pages.
Sections are arch-dependent (e.g. on x86 it's 64M, 128M or 512M) and when
initializing compound devmap with big enough @vmemmap_shift (e.g. 1G PUD)
it may cross multiple sections. The vmemmap code needs to consult @pgmap
so that multiple sections that all map the same tail data can refer back
to the first copy of that data for a given gigantic page.
On compound devmaps with 2M align, this mechanism lets 6 pages be saved
out of the 8 necessary PFNs necessary to set the subsection's 512 struct
pages being mapped. On a 1G compound devmap it saves 4094 pages.
Altmap isn't supported yet, given various restrictions in altmap pfn
allocator, thus fallback to the already in use vmemmap_populate(). It is
worth noting that altmap for devmap mappings was there to relieve the
pressure of inordinate amounts of memmap space to map terabytes of pmem.
With compound pages the motivation for altmaps for pmem gets reduced.

Patch series "sparse-vmemmap: memory savings for compound devmaps (device-dax)", v9.
This series minimizes 'struct page' overhead by pursuing a similar
approach as Muchun Song series "Free some vmemmap pages of hugetlb page"
(now merged since v5.14), but applied to devmap with @vmemmap_shift
(device-dax).
The vmemmap dedpulication original idea (already used in HugeTLB) is to
reuse/deduplicate tail page vmemmap areas, particular the area which only
describes tail pages. So a vmemmap page describes 64 struct pages, and
the first page for a given ZONE_DEVICE vmemmap would contain the head page
and 63 tail pages. The second vmemmap page would contain only tail pages,
and that's what gets reused across the rest of the subsection/section.
The bigger the page size, the bigger the savings (2M hpage -> save 6
vmemmap pages; 1G hpage -> save 4094 vmemmap pages).
This is done for PMEM /specifically only/ on device-dax configured
namespaces, not fsdax. In other words, a devmap with a @vmemmap_shift.
In terms of savings, per 1Tb of memory, the struct page cost would go down
with compound devmap:
* with 2M pages we lose 4G instead of 16G (0.39% instead of 1.5% of
total memory)
* with 1G pages we lose 40MB instead of 16G (0.0014% instead of 1.5% of
total memory)
The series is mostly summed up by patch 4, and to summarize what the
series does:
Patches 1 - 3: Minor cleanups in preparation for patch 4. Move the very
nice docs of hugetlb_vmemmap.c into a Documentation/vm/ entry.
Patch 4: Patch 4 is the one that takes care of the struct page savings
(also referred to here as tail-page/vmemmap deduplication). Much like
Muchun series, we reuse the second PTE tail page vmemmap areas across a
given @vmemmap_shift On important difference though, is that contrary to
the hugetlbfs series, there's no vmemmap for the area because we are
late-populating it as opposed to remapping a system-ram range. IOW no
freeing of pages of already initialized vmemmap like the case for
hugetlbfs, which greatly simplifies the logic (besides not being
arch-specific). altmap case unchanged and still goes via the
vmemmap_populate(). Also adjust the newly added docs to the device-dax
case.
[Note that device-dax is still a little behind HugeTLB in terms of
savings. I have an additional simple patch that reuses the head vmemmap
page too, as a follow-up. That will double the savings and namespaces
initialization.]
Patch 5: Initialize fewer struct pages depending on the page size with
DRAM backed struct pages -- because fewer pages are unique and most tail
pages (with bigger vmemmap_shift).
NVDIMM namespace bootstrap improves from ~268-358 ms to
~80-110/<1ms on 128G NVDIMMs with 2M and 1G respectivally. And struct
page needed capacity will be 3.8x / 1071x smaller for 2M and 1G
respectivelly. Tested on x86 with 1.5Tb of pmem (including pinning,
and RDMA registration/deregistration scalability with 2M MRs)
This patch (of 5):
In support of using compound pages for devmap mappings, plumb the pgmap
down to the vmemmap_populate implementation. Note that while altmap is
retrievable from pgmap the memory hotplug code passes altmap without
pgmap[*], so both need to be independently plumbed.
So in addition to @altmap, pass @pgmap to sparse section populate
functions namely:
sparse_add_section
section_activate
populate_section_memmap
__populate_section_memmap
Passing @pgmap allows __populate_section_memmap() to both fetch the
vmemmap_shift in which memmap metadata is created for and also to let
sparse-vmemmap fetch pgmap ranges to co-relate to a given section and pick
whether to just reuse tail pages from past onlined sections.
While at it, fix the kdoc for @altmap for sparse_add_section().

The only user (DAX) of range and pmdpp parameters of
follow_invalidate_pte() is gone, it is safe to remove them and make it
static to simlify the code. This is revertant of the following commits:
097963959594 ("mm: add follow_pte_pmd()")
a4d1a8852513 ("dax: update to new mmu_notifier semantic")
There is only one caller of the follow_invalidate_pte(). So just fold it
into follow_pte() and remove it.

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.

At the time demote-on-reclaim was introduced, it was tied to
CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU + CONFIG_MIGRATE, but that is not really accurate.
The only two things we need to depend on are CONFIG_NUMA + CONFIG_MIGRATE,
so clean this up. Furthermore, we only register the hotplug memory
notifier when the system has CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG.

Reverts commit 888af2701db7 ("mm/memory-failure.c: fix race with changing
page compound again") because now we fetch the page refcount under
hugetlb_lock in try_memory_failure_hugetlb() so that the race check is no
longer necessary.

cgroup_memory_noswap is only used in mm/memcontrol.c, therefore just make
it static, and remove export in include/linux/memcontrol.h

The return value of shmem_init is never used. So we can make it return
void now.
[akpm@linux-foundation.org: remove `return;' from void-returning function, per Muchun Song]
