mm: delay page_remove_rmap() until after the TLB has been flushed When we remove a page table entry, we are very careful to only free the page after we have flushed the TLB, because other CPUs could still be using the page through stale TLB entries until after the flush. However, we have removed the rmap entry for that page early, which means that functions like folio_mkclean() would end up not serializing with the page table lock because the page had already been made invisible to rmap. And that is a problem, because while the TLB entry exists, we could end up with the following situation: (a) one CPU could come in and clean it, never seeing our mapping of the page (b) another CPU could continue to use the stale and dirty TLB entry and continue to write to said page resulting in a page that has been dirtied, but then marked clean again, all while another CPU might have dirtied it some more. End result: possibly lost dirty data. This extends our current TLB gather infrastructure to optionally track a "should I do a delayed page_remove_rmap() for this page after flushing the TLB". It uses the newly introduced 'encoded page pointer' to do that without having to keep separate data around. Note, this is complicated by a couple of issues: - we want to delay the rmap removal, but not past the page table lock, because that simplifies the memcg accounting - only SMP configurations want to delay TLB flushing, since on UP there are obviously no remote TLBs to worry about, and the page table lock means there are no preemption issues either - s390 has its own mmu_gather model that doesn't delay TLB flushing, and as a result also does not want the delayed rmap. As such, we can treat S390 like the UP case and use a common fallback for the "no delays" case. - we can track an enormous number of pages in our mmu_gather structure, with MAX_GATHER_BATCH_COUNT batches of MAX_TABLE_BATCH pages each, all set up to be approximately 10k pending pages. We do not want to have a huge number of batched pages that we then need to check for delayed rmap handling inside the page table lock. Particularly that last point results in a noteworthy detail, where the normal page batch gathering is limited once we have delayed rmaps pending, in such a way that only the last batch (the so-called "active batch") in the mmu_gather structure can have any delayed entries. NOTE! While the "possibly lost dirty data" sounds catastrophic, for this all to happen you need to have a user thread doing either madvise() with MADV_DONTNEED or a full re-mmap() of the area concurrently with another thread continuing to use said mapping. So arguably this is about user space doing crazy things, but from a VM consistency standpoint it's better if we track the dirty bit properly even when user space goes off the rails.

mm: mmu_gather: allow more than one batch of delayed rmaps Commit 5df397dec7c4 ("mm: delay page_remove_rmap() until after the TLB has been flushed") limited the page batching for the mmu gather operation when a dirty shared page needed to delay rmap removal until after the TLB had been flushed. It did so because it needs to walk that array of pages while still holding the page table lock, and our mmu_gather infrastructure allows for batching quite a lot of pages. We may have thousands on pages queued up for freeing, and we wanted to walk only the last batch if we then added a dirty page to the queue. However, when I limited it to one batch, I didn't think of the degenerate case of the special first batch that is embedded on-stack in the mmu_gather structure (called "local") and that only has eight entries. So with the right pattern, that "limit delayed rmap to just one batch" will trigger over and over in that first small batch, and we'll waste a lot of time flushing TLB's every eight pages. And those right patterns are trivially triggered by just having a shared mappings with lots of adjacent dirty pages. Like the 'page_fault3' subtest of the 'will-it-scale' benchmark, that just maps a shared area, dirties all pages, and unmaps it. Rinse and repeat. We still want to limit the batching, but to fix this (easily triggered) degenerate case, just expand the "only one batch" logic to instead be "only one batch that isn't the special first on-stack ('local') batch". That way, when we need to flush the delayed rmaps, we can still limit our walk to just the last batch - and that first small one.

mm: mmu_gather: allow more than one batch of delayed rmaps Commit 5df397dec7c4 ("mm: delay page_remove_rmap() until after the TLB has been flushed") limited the page batching for the mmu gather operation when a dirty shared page needed to delay rmap removal until after the TLB had been flushed. It did so because it needs to walk that array of pages while still holding the page table lock, and our mmu_gather infrastructure allows for batching quite a lot of pages. We may have thousands on pages queued up for freeing, and we wanted to walk only the last batch if we then added a dirty page to the queue. However, when I limited it to one batch, I didn't think of the degenerate case of the special first batch that is embedded on-stack in the mmu_gather structure (called "local") and that only has eight entries. So with the right pattern, that "limit delayed rmap to just one batch" will trigger over and over in that first small batch, and we'll waste a lot of time flushing TLB's every eight pages. And those right patterns are trivially triggered by just having a shared mappings with lots of adjacent dirty pages. Like the 'page_fault3' subtest of the 'will-it-scale' benchmark, that just maps a shared area, dirties all pages, and unmaps it. Rinse and repeat. We still want to limit the batching, but to fix this (easily triggered) degenerate case, just expand the "only one batch" logic to instead be "only one batch that isn't the special first on-stack ('local') batch". That way, when we need to flush the delayed rmaps, we can still limit our walk to just the last batch - and that first small one.

mm: delay page_remove_rmap() until after the TLB has been flushed When we remove a page table entry, we are very careful to only free the page after we have flushed the TLB, because other CPUs could still be using the page through stale TLB entries until after the flush. However, we have removed the rmap entry for that page early, which means that functions like folio_mkclean() would end up not serializing with the page table lock because the page had already been made invisible to rmap. And that is a problem, because while the TLB entry exists, we could end up with the following situation: (a) one CPU could come in and clean it, never seeing our mapping of the page (b) another CPU could continue to use the stale and dirty TLB entry and continue to write to said page resulting in a page that has been dirtied, but then marked clean again, all while another CPU might have dirtied it some more. End result: possibly lost dirty data. This extends our current TLB gather infrastructure to optionally track a "should I do a delayed page_remove_rmap() for this page after flushing the TLB". It uses the newly introduced 'encoded page pointer' to do that without having to keep separate data around. Note, this is complicated by a couple of issues: - we want to delay the rmap removal, but not past the page table lock, because that simplifies the memcg accounting - only SMP configurations want to delay TLB flushing, since on UP there are obviously no remote TLBs to worry about, and the page table lock means there are no preemption issues either - s390 has its own mmu_gather model that doesn't delay TLB flushing, and as a result also does not want the delayed rmap. As such, we can treat S390 like the UP case and use a common fallback for the "no delays" case. - we can track an enormous number of pages in our mmu_gather structure, with MAX_GATHER_BATCH_COUNT batches of MAX_TABLE_BATCH pages each, all set up to be approximately 10k pending pages. We do not want to have a huge number of batched pages that we then need to check for delayed rmap handling inside the page table lock. Particularly that last point results in a noteworthy detail, where the normal page batch gathering is limited once we have delayed rmaps pending, in such a way that only the last batch (the so-called "active batch") in the mmu_gather structure can have any delayed entries. NOTE! While the "possibly lost dirty data" sounds catastrophic, for this all to happen you need to have a user thread doing either madvise() with MADV_DONTNEED or a full re-mmap() of the area concurrently with another thread continuing to use said mapping. So arguably this is about user space doing crazy things, but from a VM consistency standpoint it's better if we track the dirty bit properly even when user space goes off the rails.

But, the forementioned commit may do munmap() under read mmap_sem and free page tables. This may result in program hang on aarch64 reported by Jan Stancek.

Use fullmm flush since it yields much better performance on aarch64 and non-fullmm doesn't yields significant difference on x86.

Before commit dd2283f2605e ("mm: mmap: zap pages with read mmap_sem in munmap"), the syscalls (e.g. MADV_DONTNEED, MADV_FREE) which may update PTEs in parallel don't remove page tables. But, the forementioned commit may do munmap() under read mmap_sem and free page tables. This may result in program hang on aarch64 reported by Jan Stancek. The problem could be reproduced by his test program with slightly modified below. ---8<--- static int map_size = 4096; static int num_iter = 500; static long threads_total; static void *distant_area; void *map_write_unmap(void *ptr) { int *fd = ptr; unsigned char *map_address; int i, j = 0; for (i = 0; i < num_iter; i++) { map_address = mmap(distant_area, (size_t) map_size, PROT_WRITE | PROT_READ, MAP_SHARED | MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0); if (map_address == MAP_FAILED) { perror("mmap"); exit(1); } for (j = 0; j < map_size; j++) map_address[j] = 'b'; if (munmap(map_address, map_size) == -1) { perror("munmap"); exit(1); } } return NULL; } void *dummy(void *ptr) { return NULL; } int main(void) { pthread_t thid[2]; /* hint for mmap in map_write_unmap() */ distant_area = mmap(0, DISTANT_MMAP_SIZE, PROT_WRITE | PROT_READ, MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_PRIVATE, -1, 0); munmap(distant_area, (size_t)DISTANT_MMAP_SIZE); distant_area += DISTANT_MMAP_SIZE / 2; while (1) { pthread_create(&thid[0], NULL, map_write_unmap, NULL); pthread_create(&thid[1], NULL, dummy, NULL); pthread_join(thid[0], NULL); pthread_join(thid[1], NULL); } } ---8<--- The program may bring in parallel execution like below: t1 t2 munmap(map_address) downgrade_write(&mm->mmap_sem); unmap_region() tlb_gather_mmu() inc_tlb_flush_pending(tlb->mm); free_pgtables() tlb->freed_tables = 1 tlb->cleared_pmds = 1 pthread_exit() madvise(thread_stack, 8M, MADV_DONTNEED) zap_page_range() tlb_gather_mmu() inc_tlb_flush_pending(tlb->mm); tlb_finish_mmu() if (mm_tlb_flush_nested(tlb->mm)) __tlb_reset_range() __tlb_reset_range() would reset freed_tables and cleared_* bits, but this may cause inconsistency for munmap() which do free page tables. Then it may result in some architectures, e.g. aarch64, may not flush TLB completely as expected to have stale TLB entries remained. Use fullmm flush since it yields much better performance on aarch64 and non-fullmm doesn't yields significant difference on x86.
