apply_to_pte_range might mistake a large pte for bad, or treat it as a
page table, resulting in a crash or corruption. Add a test to warn and
return error if large entries are found.

With NUMA balancing, in hint page fault handler, the faulting page will be
migrated to the accessing node if necessary. During the migration, TLB
will be shot down on all CPUs that the process has run on recently.
Because in the hint page fault handler, the PTE will be made accessible
before the migration is tried. The overhead of TLB shooting down can be
high, so it's better to be avoided if possible. In fact, if we delay
mapping the page until migration, that can be avoided. This is what this
patch doing.
For the multiple threads applications, it's possible that a page is
accessed by multiple threads almost at the same time. In the original
implementation, because the first thread will install the accessible PTE
before migrating the page, the other threads may access the page directly
before the page is made inaccessible again during migration. While with
the patch, the second thread will go through the page fault handler too.
And because of the PageLRU() checking in the following code path,
migrate_misplaced_page()
numamigrate_isolate_page()
isolate_lru_page()
the migrate_misplaced_page() will return 0, and the PTE will be made
accessible in the second thread.
This will introduce a little more overhead. But we think the possibility
for a page to be accessed by the multiple threads at the same time is low,
and the overhead difference isn't too large. If this becomes a problem in
some workloads, we need to consider how to reduce the overhead.
To test the patch, we run a test case as follows on a 2-socket Intel
server (1 NUMA node per socket) with 128GB DRAM (64GB per socket).
1. Run a memory eater on NUMA node 1 to use 40GB memory before running
pmbench.
2. Run pmbench (normal accessing pattern) with 8 processes, and 8
threads per process, so there are 64 threads in total. The
working-set size of each process is 8960MB, so the total working-set
size is 8 * 8960MB = 70GB. The CPU of all pmbench processes is bound
to node 1. The pmbench processes will access some DRAM on node 0.
3. After the pmbench processes run for 10 seconds, kill the memory
eater. Now, some pages will be migrated from node 0 to node 1 via
NUMA balancing.
Test results show that, with the patch, the pmbench throughput (page
accesses/s) increases 5.5%. The number of the TLB shootdowns interrupts
reduces 98% (from ~4.7e7 to ~9.7e5) with about 9.2e6 pages (35.8GB)
migrated. From the perf profile, it can be found that the CPU cycles
spent by try_to_unmap() and its callees reduces from 6.02% to 0.47%. That
is, the CPU cycles spent by TLB shooting down decreases greatly.

Patch series "add remap_pfn_range_notrack instead of reinventing it in i915", v2.
i915 has some reason to want to avoid the track_pfn_remap overhead in
remap_pfn_range. Add a function to the core VM to do just that rather
than reinventing the functionality poorly in the driver.
Note that the remap_io_sg path does get exercises when using Xorg on my
Thinkpad X1, so this should be considered lightly tested, I've not managed
to hit the remap_io_mapping path at all.
This patch (of 4):
Add a version of remap_pfn_range that does not call track_pfn_range. This
will be used to fix horrible abuses of VM internals in the i915 driver.

Currently the kernel adds the page, allocated for swapin, to the
swapcache before charging the page. This is fine but now we want a
per-memcg swapcache stat which is essential for folks who wants to
transparently migrate from cgroup v1's memsw to cgroup v2's memory and
swap counters. In addition charging a page before exposing it to other
parts of the kernel is a step in the right direction.
To correctly maintain the per-memcg swapcache stat, this patch has
adopted to charge the page before adding it to swapcache. One challenge
in this option is the failure case of add_to_swap_cache() on which we
need to undo the mem_cgroup_charge(). Specifically undoing
mem_cgroup_uncharge_swap() is not simple.
To resolve the issue, this patch decouples the charging for swapin pages
from mem_cgroup_charge(). Two new functions are introduced,
mem_cgroup_swapin_charge_page() for just charging the swapin page and
mem_cgroup_swapin_uncharge_swap() for uncharging the swap slot once the
page has been successfully added to the swapcache.

There are code paths that rely on zero_pfn to be fully initialized
before core_initcall. For example, wq_sysfs_init() is a core_initcall
function that eventually results in a call to kernel_execve, which
causes a page fault with a subsequent mmput. If zero_pfn is not
initialized by then it may not get cleaned up properly and result in an
error:
BUG: Bad rss-counter state mm:(ptrval) type:MM_ANONPAGES val:1
Here is an analysis of the race as seen on a MIPS device. On this
particular MT7621 device (Ubiquiti ER-X), zero_pfn is PFN 0 until
initialized, at which point it becomes PFN 5120:
1. wq_sysfs_init calls into kobject_uevent_env at core_initcall:
kobject_uevent_env+0x7e4/0x7ec
kset_register+0x68/0x88
bus_register+0xdc/0x34c
subsys_virtual_register+0x34/0x78
wq_sysfs_init+0x1c/0x4c
do_one_initcall+0x50/0x1a8
kernel_init_freeable+0x230/0x2c8
kernel_init+0x10/0x100
ret_from_kernel_thread+0x14/0x1c
2. kobject_uevent_env() calls call_usermodehelper_exec() which executes
kernel_execve asynchronously.
3. Memory allocations in kernel_execve cause a page fault, bumping the
MM reference counter:
add_mm_counter_fast+0xb4/0xc0
handle_mm_fault+0x6e4/0xea0
__get_user_pages.part.78+0x190/0x37c
__get_user_pages_remote+0x128/0x360
get_arg_page+0x34/0xa0
copy_string_kernel+0x194/0x2a4
kernel_execve+0x11c/0x298
call_usermodehelper_exec_async+0x114/0x194
4. In case zero_pfn has not been initialized yet, zap_pte_range does
not decrement the MM_ANONPAGES RSS counter and the BUG message is
triggered shortly afterwards when __mmdrop checks the ref counters:
__mmdrop+0x98/0x1d0
free_bprm+0x44/0x118
kernel_execve+0x160/0x1d8
call_usermodehelper_exec_async+0x114/0x194
ret_from_kernel_thread+0x14/0x1c
To avoid races such as described above, initialize init_zero_pfn at
early_initcall level. Depending on the architecture, ZERO_PAGE is
either constant or gets initialized even earlier, at paging_init, so
there is no issue with initializing zero_pfn earlier.

Userfaultfd self-test fails occasionally, indicating a memory corruption.
Analyzing this problem indicates that there is a real bug since mmap_lock
is only taken for read in mwriteprotect_range() and defers flushes, and
since there is insufficient consideration of concurrent deferred TLB
flushes in wp_page_copy(). Although the PTE is flushed from the TLBs in
wp_page_copy(), this flush takes place after the copy has already been
performed, and therefore changes of the page are possible between the time
of the copy and the time in which the PTE is flushed.
To make matters worse, memory-unprotection using userfaultfd also poses a
problem. Although memory unprotection is logically a promotion of PTE
permissions, and therefore should not require a TLB flush, the current
userrfaultfd code might actually cause a demotion of the architectural PTE
permission: when userfaultfd_writeprotect() unprotects memory region, it
unintentionally *clears* the RW-bit if it was already set. Note that this
unprotecting a PTE that is not write-protected is a valid use-case: the
userfaultfd monitor might ask to unprotect a region that holds both
write-protected and write-unprotected PTEs.
The scenario that happens in selftests/vm/userfaultfd is as follows:
cpu0 cpu1 cpu2
---- ---- ----
[ Writable PTE
cached in TLB ]
userfaultfd_writeprotect()
[ write-*unprotect* ]
mwriteprotect_range()
mmap_read_lock()
change_protection()
change_protection_range()
...
change_pte_range()
[ *clear* “write”-bit ]
[ defer TLB flushes ]
[ page-fault ]
...
wp_page_copy()
cow_user_page()
[ copy page ]
[ write to old
page ]
...
set_pte_at_notify()
A similar scenario can happen:
cpu0 cpu1 cpu2 cpu3
---- ---- ---- ----
[ Writable PTE
cached in TLB ]
userfaultfd_writeprotect()
[ write-protect ]
[ deferred TLB flush ]
userfaultfd_writeprotect()
[ write-unprotect ]
[ deferred TLB flush]
[ page-fault ]
wp_page_copy()
cow_user_page()
[ copy page ]
... [ write to page ]
set_pte_at_notify()
This race exists since commit 292924b26024 ("userfaultfd: wp: apply
_PAGE_UFFD_WP bit"). Yet, as Yu Zhao pointed, these races became apparent
since commit 09854ba94c6a ("mm: do_wp_page() simplification") which made
wp_page_copy() more likely to take place, specifically if page_count(page)
> 1.
To resolve the aforementioned races, check whether there are pending
flushes on uffd-write-protected VMAs, and if there are, perform a flush
before doing the COW.
Further optimizations will follow to avoid during uffd-write-unprotect
unnecassary PTE write-protection and TLB flushes.

We've got quite a few places (pte, pmd, pud) that explicitly checked
against whether we should break the cow right now during fork(). It's
easier to provide a helper, especially before we work the same thing on
hugetlbfs.
Since we'll reference is_cow_mapping() in mm.h, move it there too.
Actually it suites mm.h more since internal.h is mm/ only, but mm.h is
exported to the whole kernel. With that we should expect another patch to
use is_cow_mapping() whenever we can across the kernel since we do use it
quite a lot but it's always done with raw code against VM_* flags.

MIPS page fault path(except huge page) takes 3 exceptions (1 TLB Miss + 2
TLB Invalid), butthe second TLB Invalid exception is just triggered by
__update_tlb from do_page_fault writing tlb without _PAGE_VALID set. With
this patch, user space mapping prot is made young by default (with both
_PAGE_VALID and _PAGE_YOUNG set), and it only take 1 TLB Miss + 1 TLB
Invalid exception
Remove pte_sw_mkyoung without polluting MM code and make page fault delay
of MIPS on par with other architecture

page structs are not guaranteed to be contiguous for gigantic pages. The
routine copy_huge_page_from_user can encounter gigantic pages, yet it
assumes page structs are contiguous when copying pages from user space.
Since page structs for the target gigantic page are not contiguous, the
data copied from user space could overwrite other pages not associated
with the gigantic page and cause data corruption.
Non-contiguous page structs are generally not an issue. However, they can
exist with a specific kernel configuration and hotplug operations. For
example: Configure the kernel with CONFIG_SPARSEMEM and
!CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP. Then, hotplug add memory for the area where
the gigantic page will be allocated.

Pull KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"x86:
- Support for userspace to emulate Xen hypercalls
- Raise the maximum number of user memslots
- Scalability improvements for the new MMU.
Instead of the complex "fast page fault" logic that is used in
mmu.c, tdp_mmu.c uses an rwlock so that page faults are concurrent,
but the code that can run against page faults is limited. Right now
only page faults take the lock for reading; in the future this will
be extended to some cases of page table destruction. I hope to
switch the default MMU around 5.12-rc3 (some testing was delayed
due to Chinese New Year).
- Cleanups for MAXPHYADDR checks
- Use static calls for vendor-specific callbacks
- On AMD, use VMLOAD/VMSAVE to save and restore host state
- Stop using deprecated jump label APIs

Currently, the follow_pfn function is exported for modules but
follow_pte is not. However, follow_pfn is very easy to misuse,
because it does not provide protections (so most of its callers
assume the page is writable!) and because it returns after having
already unlocked the page table lock.
Provide instead a simplified version of follow_pte that does
not have the pmdpp and range arguments. The older version
survives as follow_invalidate_pte() for use by fs/dax.c.

Rather than modifying the 'address' field of the 'struct vm_fault'
passed to do_set_pte(), leave that to identify the real faulting address
and pass in the virtual address to be mapped by the new pte as a
separate argument.
This makes FAULT_FLAG_PREFAULT redundant, as a prefault entry can be
identified simply by comparing the new address parameter with the
faulting address, so remove the redundant flag at the same time.

Commit 5c0a85fad949 ("mm: make faultaround produce old ptes") changed
the "faultaround" behaviour to initialise prefaulted PTEs as 'old',
since this avoids vmscan wrongly assuming that they are hot, despite
having never been explicitly accessed by userspace. The change has been
shown to benefit numerous arm64 micro-architectures (with hardware
access flag) running Android, where both application launch latency and
direct reclaim time are significantly reduced (by 10%+ and ~80%
respectively).
Unfortunately, commit 315d09bf30c2 ("Revert "mm: make faultaround
produce old ptes"") reverted the change due to it being identified as
the cause of a ~6% regression in unixbench on x86. Experiments on a
variety of recent arm64 micro-architectures indicate that unixbench is
not affected by the original commit, which appears to yield a 0-1%
performance improvement.
Since one size does not fit all for the initial state of prefaulted
PTEs, introduce arch_wants_old_prefaulted_pte(), which allows an
architecture to opt-in to 'old' prefaulted PTEs at runtime based on
whatever criteria it may have.

alloc_set_pte() has two users with different requirements: in the
faultaround code, it called from an atomic context and PTE page table
has to be preallocated. finish_fault() can sleep and allocate page table
as needed.
PTL locking rules are also strange, hard to follow and overkill for
finish_fault().
Let's untangle the mess. alloc_set_pte() has gone now. All locking is
explicit.
The price is some code duplication to handle huge pages in faultaround
path, but it should be fine, having overall improvement in readability.

Way back it was a reasonable assumptions that iomem mappings never
change the pfn range they point at. But this has changed:
- gpu drivers dynamically manage their memory nowadays, invalidating
ptes with unmap_mapping_range when buffers get moved
- contiguous dma allocations have moved from dedicated carvetouts to
cma regions. This means if we miss the unmap the pfn might contain
pagecache or anon memory (well anything allocated with GFP_MOVEABLE)
- even /dev/mem now invalidates mappings when the kernel requests that
iomem region when CONFIG_IO_STRICT_DEVMEM is set, see 3234ac664a87
("/dev/mem: Revoke mappings when a driver claims the region")
Accessing pfns obtained from ptes without holding all the locks is
therefore no longer a good idea. Fix this.
Since ioremap might need to manipulate pagetables too we need to drop
the pt lock and have a retry loop if we raced.
While at it, also add kerneldoc and improve the comment for the
vma_ops->access function. It's for accessing, not for moving the
memory from iomem to system memory, as the old comment seemed to
suggest.

I'm not sure if I'm completely missing something here, but AFAIKS the
reference to the mysterious "COW SMC race" confuses the issue. The
original changelog and mailing list thread didn't help me either.
This SMC race is where the problem was detected, but isn't the general
problem bigger and more obvious: that the new PTE could be picked up at
any time by any TLB while entries for the old PTE exist in other TLBs
before the TLB flush takes effect?
The case where the iTLB and dTLB of a CPU are pointing at different pages
is an interesting one but follows from the general problem.
The other (minor) thing with the comment I think it makes it a bit clearer
to say what the old code was doing (i.e., it avoids the race as opposed to
what?).

Despite a comment that said that page fault accounting would be charged to
whatever task_struct* was passed into __access_remote_vm(), the tsk
argument was actually unused.
Making page fault accounting actually use this task struct is quite a
project, so there is no point in keeping the tsk argument.
Delete both the comment, and the argument.

Since commit 70e806e4e645 ("mm: Do early cow for pinned pages during
fork() for ptes") pages under a FOLL_PIN will not be write protected
during COW for fork. This means that pages returned from
pin_user_pages(FOLL_WRITE) should not become write protected while the pin
is active.
However, there is a small race where get_user_pages_fast(FOLL_PIN) can
establish a FOLL_PIN at the same time copy_present_page() is write
protecting it:
CPU 0 CPU 1
get_user_pages_fast()
internal_get_user_pages_fast()
copy_page_range()
pte_alloc_map_lock()
copy_present_page()
atomic_read(has_pinned) == 0
page_maybe_dma_pinned() == false
atomic_set(has_pinned, 1);
gup_pgd_range()
gup_pte_range()
pte_t pte = gup_get_pte(ptep)
pte_access_permitted(pte)
try_grab_compound_head()
pte = pte_wrprotect(pte)
set_pte_at();
pte_unmap_unlock()
// GUP now returns with a write protected page
The first attempt to resolve this by using the write protect caused
problems (and was missing a barrrier), see commit f3c64eda3e50 ("mm: avoid
early COW write protect games during fork()")
Instead wrap copy_p4d_range() with the write side of a seqcount and check
the read side around gup_pgd_range(). If there is a collision then
get_user_pages_fast() fails and falls back to slow GUP.
Slow GUP is safe against this race because copy_page_range() is only
called while holding the exclusive side of the mmap_lock on the src
mm_struct.

In commit 70e806e4e645 ("mm: Do early cow for pinned pages during fork()
for ptes") we write-protected the PTE before doing the page pinning
check, in order to avoid a race with concurrent fast-GUP pinning (which
doesn't take the mm semaphore or the page table lock).
That trick doesn't actually work - it doesn't handle memory ordering
properly, and doing so would be prohibitively expensive.
It also isn't really needed. While we're moving in the direction of
allowing and supporting page pinning without marking the pinned area
with MADV_DONTFORK, the fact is that we've never really supported this
kind of odd "concurrent fork() and page pinning", and doing the
serialization on a pte level is just wrong.
We can add serialization with a per-mm sequence counter, so we know how
to solve that race properly, but we'll do that at a more appropriate
time. Right now this just removes the write protect games.
It also turns out that the write protect games actually break on Power,
as reported by Aneesh Kumar:
"Architecture like ppc64 expects set_pte_at to be not used for updating
a valid pte. This is further explained in commit 56eecdb912b5 ("mm:

and the code triggered a warning there:

Most of dma-debug.h is not required by anything outside of kernel/dma.
Move the four declarations needed by dma-mappin.h or dma-ops providers
into dma-mapping.h and dma-map-ops.h, and move the remainder of the
file to kernel/dma/debug.h.

This allows copy_pte_range() to do early cow if the pages were pinned on
the source mm.
Currently we don't have an accurate way to know whether a page is pinned
or not. The only thing we have is page_maybe_dma_pinned(). However
that's good enough for now. Especially, with the newly added
mm->has_pinned flag to make sure we won't affect processes that never
pinned any pages.
It would be easier if we can do GFP_KERNEL allocation within
copy_one_pte(). Unluckily, we can't because we're with the page table
locks held for both the parent and child processes. So the page
allocation needs to be done outside copy_one_pte().
Some trick is there in copy_present_pte(), majorly the wrprotect trick
to block concurrent fast-gup. Comments in the function should explain
better in place.
Oleg Nesterov reported a (probably harmless) bug during review that we
didn't reset entry.val properly in copy_pte_range() so that potentially
there's chance to call add_swap_count_continuation() multiple times on
the same swp entry. However that should be harmless since even if it
happens, the same function (add_swap_count_continuation()) will return
directly noticing that there're enough space for the swp counter. So
instead of a standalone stable patch, it is touched up in this patch
directly.

Commit 09854ba94c6a ("mm: do_wp_page() simplification") reorganized all
the code around the page re-use vs copy, but in the process also moved
the final unlock_page() around to after the wp_page_reuse() call.
That normally doesn't matter - but it means that the unlock_page() is
now done after releasing the page table lock. Again, not a big deal,
you'd think.
But it turns out that it's very wrong indeed, because once we've
released the page table lock, we've basically lost our only reference to
the page - the page tables - and it could now be free'd at any time. We
do hold the mmap_sem, so no actual unmap() can happen, but madvise can
come in and a MADV_DONTNEED will zap the page range - and free the page.
So now the page may be free'd just as we're unlocking it, which in turn
will usually trigger a "Bad page state" error in the freeing path. To
make matters more confusing, by the time the debug code prints out the
page state, the unlock has typically completed and everything looks fine
again.
This all doesn't happen in any normal situations, but it does trigger
with the dirtyc0w_child LTP test. And it seems to trigger much more
easily (but not expclusively) on s390 than elsewhere, probably because
s390 doesn't do the "batch pages up for freeing after the TLB flush"
that gives the unlock_page() more time to complete and makes the race
harder to hit.

This completes the split of the non-present and present pte cases by
moving the check for the source pte being present into the single
caller, which also means that we clearly separate out the very different
return value case for a non-present pte.
The present pte case currently always succeeds.
This is a pure code re-organization with no semantic change: the intent
is to make it much easier to add a new return case to the present pte
case for when we do early COW at page table copy time.
This was split out from the previous commit simply to make it easy to
visually see that there were no semantic changes from this code
re-organization.

This is a purely mechanical split of the copy_one_pte() function. It's
not immediately obvious when looking at the diff because of the
indentation change, but the way to see what is going on in this commit
is to use the "-w" flag to not show pure whitespace changes, and you see
how the first part of copy_one_pte() is simply lifted out into a
separate function.
And since the non-present case is marked unlikely, don't make the new
function be inlined. Not that gcc really seems to care, since it looks
like it will inline it anyway due to the whole "single callsite for
static function" logic. In fact, code generation with the function
split is almost identical to before. But not marking it inline is the
right thing to do.
This is pure prep-work and cleanup for subsequent changes.

__apply_to_page_range() is also used to change and/or allocate
page-table pages in the vmalloc area of the address space. Make sure
these changes get synchronized to other page-tables in the system by
calling arch_sync_kernel_mappings() when necessary.
The impact appears limited to x86-32, where apply_to_page_range may miss
updating the PMD. That leads to explosions in drivers like

Merge emailed patches from Peter Xu:
"This is a small series that I picked up from Linus's suggestion to
simplify cow handling (and also make it more strict) by checking
against page refcounts rather than mapcounts.
This makes uffd-wp work again (verified by running upmapsort)"
Note: this is horrendously bad timing, and making this kind of
fundamental vm change after -rc3 is not at all how things should work.
The saving grace is that it really is a a nice simplification:
8 files changed, 29 insertions(+), 120 deletions(-)
The reason for the bad timing is that it turns out that commit
17839856fd58 ("gup: document and work around 'COW can break either way'
issue" broke not just UFFD functionality (as Peter noticed), but Mikulas
Patocka also reports that it caused issues for strace when running in a
DAX environment with ext4 on a persistent memory setup.
And we can't just revert that commit without re-introducing the original
issue that is a potential security hole, so making COW stricter (and in
the process much simpler) is a step to then undoing the forced COW that
broke other uses.

Recently we found regression when running will_it_scale/page_fault3 test
on ARM64. Over 70% down for the multi processes cases and over 20% down
for the multi threads cases. It turns out the regression is caused by
commit 89b15332af7c ("mm: drop mmap_sem before calling
balance_dirty_pages() in write fault").
The test mmaps a memory size file then write to the mapping, this would
make all memory dirty and trigger dirty pages throttle, that upstream
commit would release mmap_sem then retry the page fault. The retried
page fault would see correct PTEs installed then just fall through to
spurious TLB flush. The regression is caused by the excessive spurious
TLB flush. It is fine on x86 since x86's spurious TLB flush is no-op.
We could just skip the spurious TLB flush to mitigate the regression.

The writes are under si->lock but the reads are not. For si.highest_bit
and si.swap_map[offset], data race could trigger logic bugs, so fix them
by having WRITE_ONCE() for the writes and READ_ONCE() for the reads
except those isolated reads where they compare against zero which a data
race would cause no harm. Thus, annotate them as intentional data races
using the data_race() macro.
For si.flags, the readers are only interested in a single bit where a
data race there would cause no issue there.

This remoes the code from the COW path to call debug_dma_assert_idle(),
which was added many years ago.
Google shows that it hasn't caught anything in the 6+ years we've had it
apart from a false positive, and Hugh just noticed how it had a very
unfortunate spinlock serialization in the COW path.
He fixed that issue the previous commit (a85ffd59bd36: "dma-debug: fix
debug_dma_assert_idle(), use rcu_read_lock()"), but let's see if anybody
even notices when we remove this function entirely.
NOTE! We keep the dma tracking infrastructure that was added by the
commit that introduced it. Partly to make it easier to resurrect this
debug code if we ever deside to, and partly because that tracking by pfn
and offset looks quite reasonable.
The problem with this debug code was simply that it was expensive and
didn't seem worth it, not that it was wrong per se.
