mm: introduce a general RCU get_user_pages_fast() This series implements general forms of get_user_pages_fast and __get_user_pages_fast in core code and activates them for arm and arm64. These are required for Transparent HugePages to function correctly, as a futex on a THP tail will otherwise result in an infinite loop (due to the core implementation of __get_user_pages_fast always returning 0). Unfortunately, a futex on THP tail can be quite common for certain workloads; thus THP is unreliable without a __get_user_pages_fast implementation. This series may also be beneficial for direct-IO heavy workloads and certain KVM workloads. This patch (of 6): get_user_pages_fast() attempts to pin user pages by walking the page tables directly and avoids taking locks. Thus the walker needs to be protected from page table pages being freed from under it, and needs to block any THP splits. One way to achieve this is to have the walker disable interrupts, and rely on IPIs from the TLB flushing code blocking before the page table pages are freed. On some platforms we have hardware broadcast of TLB invalidations, thus the TLB flushing code doesn't necessarily need to broadcast IPIs; and spuriously broadcasting IPIs can hurt system performance if done too often. This problem has been solved on PowerPC and Sparc by batching up page table pages belonging to more than one mm_user, then scheduling an rcu_sched callback to free the pages. This RCU page table free logic has been promoted to core code and is activated when one enables HAVE_RCU_TABLE_FREE. Unfortunately, these architectures implement their own get_user_pages_fast routines. The RCU page table free logic coupled with an IPI broadcast on THP split (which is a rare event), allows one to protect a page table walker by merely disabling the interrupts during the walk. This patch provides a general RCU implementation of get_user_pages_fast that can be used by architectures that perform hardware broadcast of TLB invalidations. It is based heavily on the PowerPC implementation by Nick Piggin.

mm/gup, x86/mm/pkeys: Check VMAs and PTEs for protection keys Today, for normal faults and page table walks, we check the VMA and/or PTE to ensure that it is compatible with the action. For instance, if we get a write fault on a non-writeable VMA, we SIGSEGV. We try to do the same thing for protection keys. Basically, we try to make sure that if a user does this: mprotect(ptr, size, PROT_NONE); *ptr = foo; they see the same effects with protection keys when they do this: mprotect(ptr, size, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE); set_pkey(ptr, size, 4); wrpkru(0xffffff3f); // access disable pkey 4 *ptr = foo; The state to do that checking is in the VMA, but we also sometimes have to do it on the page tables only, like when doing a get_user_pages_fast() where we have no VMA. We add two functions and expose them to generic code: arch_pte_access_permitted(pte_flags, write) arch_vma_access_permitted(vma, write) These are, of course, backed up in x86 arch code with checks against the PTE or VMA's protection key. But, there are also cases where we do not want to respect protection keys. When we ptrace(), for instance, we do not want to apply the tracer's PKRU permissions to the PTEs from the process being traced.

mm/gup: page->hpage_pinned_refcount: exact pin counts for huge pages For huge pages (and in fact, any compound page), the GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS scheme tends to overflow too easily, each tail page increments the head page->_refcount by GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS (1024). That limits the number of huge pages that can be pinned. This patch removes that limitation, by using an exact form of pin counting for compound pages of order > 1. The "order > 1" is required because this approach uses the 3rd struct page in the compound page, and order 1 compound pages only have two pages, so that won't work there. A new struct page field, hpage_pinned_refcount, has been added, replacing a padding field in the union (so no new space is used). This enhancement also has a useful side effect: huge pages and compound pages (of order > 1) do not suffer from the "potential false positives" problem that is discussed in the page_dma_pinned() comment block. That is because these compound pages have extra space for tracking things, so they get exact pin counts instead of overloading page->_refcount. Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst is updated accordingly.

mm/gup: track FOLL_PIN pages Add tracking of pages that were pinned via FOLL_PIN. This tracking is implemented via overloading of page->_refcount: pins are added by adding GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS (1024) to the refcount. This provides a fuzzy indication of pinning, and it can have false positives (and that's OK). Please see the pre-existing Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst for details. As mentioned in pin_user_pages.rst, callers who effectively set FOLL_PIN (typically via pin_user_pages*()) are required to ultimately free such pages via unpin_user_page(). Please also note the limitation, discussed in pin_user_pages.rst under the "TODO: for 1GB and larger huge pages" section. (That limitation will be removed in a following patch.) The effect of a FOLL_PIN flag is similar to that of FOLL_GET, and may be thought of as "FOLL_GET for DIO and/or RDMA use". Pages that have been pinned via FOLL_PIN are identifiable via a new function call: bool page_maybe_dma_pinned(struct page *page); What to do in response to encountering such a page, is left to later patchsets. There is discussion about this in [1], [2], [3], and [4]. This also changes a BUG_ON(), to a WARN_ON(), in follow_page_mask().

Add two new fields to /proc/vmstat: nr_foll_pin_acquired nr_foll_pin_released These are documented in Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst. They represent the number of pages (since boot time) that have been pinned ("nr_foll_pin_acquired") and unpinned ("nr_foll_pin_released"), via pin_user_pages*() and unpin_user_pages*(). In the absence of long-running DMA or RDMA operations that hold pages pinned, the above two fields will normally be equal to each other. Also: update Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst, to remove an earlier (now confirmed untrue) claim about a performance problem with /proc/vmstat. Also: update Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst to rename the new /proc/vmstat entries, to the names listed here.

mm/gup: fix omission of check on FOLL_LONGTERM in gup fast path FOLL_LONGTERM is a special case of FOLL_PIN. It suggests a pin which is going to be given to hardware and can't move. It would truncate CMA permanently and should be excluded. In gup slow path, where __gup_longterm_locked->check_and_migrate_cma_pages() handles FOLL_LONGTERM, but in fast path, there lacks such a check, which means a possible leak of CMA page to longterm pinned. Place a check in try_grab_compound_head() in the fast path to fix the leak, and if FOLL_LONGTERM happens on CMA, it will fall back to slow path to migrate the page. Some note about the check: Huge page's subpages have the same migrate type due to either allocation from a free_list[] or alloc_contig_range() with param MIGRATE_MOVABLE. So it is enough to check on a single subpage by is_migrate_cma_page(subpage) Signed-off-by: Pingfan Liu <kernelfans@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Reviewed-by: Jason Gunthorpe <jgg@mellanox.com> Cc: Ira Weiny <ira.weiny@intel.com> Cc: Mike Rapoport <rppt@linux.ibm.com> Cc: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com> Cc: Matthew Wilcox <willy@infradead.org> Cc: John Hubbard <jhubbard@nvidia.com> Cc: "Aneesh Kumar K.V" <aneesh.kumar@linux.ibm.com> Cc: Christoph Hellwig <hch@infradead.org> Cc: Shuah Khan <shuah@kernel.org> Cc: Jason Gunthorpe <jgg@ziepe.ca> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1584876733-17405-3-git-send-email-kernelfans@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

mm/gup: /proc/vmstat: pin_user_pages (FOLL_PIN) reporting Now that pages are "DMA-pinned" via pin_user_page*(), and unpinned via unpin_user_pages*(), we need some visibility into whether all of this is working correctly. Add two new fields to /proc/vmstat: nr_foll_pin_acquired nr_foll_pin_released These are documented in Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst. They represent the number of pages (since boot time) that have been pinned ("nr_foll_pin_acquired") and unpinned ("nr_foll_pin_released"), via pin_user_pages*() and unpin_user_pages*(). In the absence of long-running DMA or RDMA operations that hold pages pinned, the above two fields will normally be equal to each other. Also: update Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst, to remove an earlier (now confirmed untrue) claim about a performance problem with /proc/vmstat. Also: update Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst to rename the new /proc/vmstat entries, to the names listed here.

mm/gup: page->hpage_pinned_refcount: exact pin counts for huge pages For huge pages (and in fact, any compound page), the GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS scheme tends to overflow too easily, each tail page increments the head page->_refcount by GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS (1024). That limits the number of huge pages that can be pinned. This patch removes that limitation, by using an exact form of pin counting for compound pages of order > 1.

mm/gup: track FOLL_PIN pages Add tracking of pages that were pinned via FOLL_PIN. This tracking is implemented via overloading of page->_refcount: pins are added by adding GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS (1024) to the refcount. This provides a fuzzy indication of pinning, and it can have false positives (and that's OK). Please see the pre-existing Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst for details. As mentioned in pin_user_pages.rst, callers who effectively set FOLL_PIN (typically via pin_user_pages*()) are required to ultimately free such pages via unpin_user_page(). Please also note the limitation, discussed in pin_user_pages.rst under the "TODO: for 1GB and larger huge pages" section. (That limitation will be removed in a following patch.) The effect of a FOLL_PIN flag is similar to that of FOLL_GET, and may be thought of as "FOLL_GET for DIO and/or RDMA use". Pages that have been pinned via FOLL_PIN are identifiable via a new function call: bool page_maybe_dma_pinned(struct page *page); What to do in response to encountering such a page, is left to later patchsets.

mm/gup: page->hpage_pinned_refcount: exact pin counts for huge pages For huge pages (and in fact, any compound page), the GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS scheme tends to overflow too easily, each tail page increments the head page->_refcount by GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS (1024). That limits the number of huge pages that can be pinned. This patch removes that limitation, by using an exact form of pin counting for compound pages of order > 1. The "order > 1" is required because this approach uses the 3rd struct page in the compound page, and order 1 compound pages only have two pages, so that won't work there. A new struct page field, hpage_pinned_refcount, has been added, replacing a padding field in the union (so no new space is used). This enhancement also has a useful side effect: huge pages and compound pages (of order > 1) do not suffer from the "potential false positives" problem that is discussed in the page_dma_pinned() comment block. That is because these compound pages have extra space for tracking things, so they get exact pin counts instead of overloading page->_refcount. Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst is updated accordingly.

mm/gup: track FOLL_PIN pages Add tracking of pages that were pinned via FOLL_PIN. This tracking is implemented via overloading of page->_refcount: pins are added by adding GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS (1024) to the refcount. This provides a fuzzy indication of pinning, and it can have false positives (and that's OK). Please see the pre-existing Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst for details. As mentioned in pin_user_pages.rst, callers who effectively set FOLL_PIN (typically via pin_user_pages*()) are required to ultimately free such pages via unpin_user_page(). Please also note the limitation, discussed in pin_user_pages.rst under the "TODO: for 1GB and larger huge pages" section. (That limitation will be removed in a following patch.) The effect of a FOLL_PIN flag is similar to that of FOLL_GET, and may be thought of as "FOLL_GET for DIO and/or RDMA use".

mm/gup: /proc/vmstat: pin_user_pages (FOLL_PIN) reporting Now that pages are "DMA-pinned" via pin_user_page*(), and unpinned via unpin_user_pages*(), we need some visibility into whether all of this is working correctly. Add two new fields to /proc/vmstat: nr_foll_pin_acquired nr_foll_pin_released These are documented in Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst. They represent the number of pages (since boot time) that have been pinned ("nr_foll_pin_acquired") and unpinned ("nr_foll_pin_released"), via pin_user_pages*() and unpin_user_pages*(). In the absence of long-running DMA or RDMA operations that hold pages pinned, the above two fields will normally be equal to each other. Also: update Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst, to remove an earlier (now confirmed untrue) claim about a performance problem with /proc/vmstat. Also: update Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst to rename the new /proc/vmstat entries, to the names listed here.

mm/gup: /proc/vmstat: pin_user_pages (FOLL_PIN) reporting Now that pages are "DMA-pinned" via pin_user_page*(), and unpinned via unpin_user_pages*(), we need some visibility into whether all of this is working correctly. Add two new fields to /proc/vmstat: nr_foll_pin_acquired nr_foll_pin_released These are documented in Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst. They represent the number of pages (since boot time) that have been pinned ("nr_foll_pin_acquired") and unpinned ("nr_foll_pin_released"), via pin_user_pages*() and unpin_user_pages*(). In the absence of long-running DMA or RDMA operations that hold pages pinned, the above two fields will normally be equal to each other. Also: update Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst, to remove an earlier (now confirmed untrue) claim about a performance problem with /proc/vmstat. Also: update Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst to rename the new /proc/vmstat entries, to the names listed here.

mm/gup: track FOLL_PIN pages Add tracking of pages that were pinned via FOLL_PIN. This tracking is implemented via overloading of page->_refcount: pins are added by adding GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS (1024) to the refcount. This provides a fuzzy indication of pinning, and it can have false positives (and that's OK). Please see the pre-existing Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst for details. As mentioned in pin_user_pages.rst, callers who effectively set FOLL_PIN (typically via pin_user_pages*()) are required to ultimately free such pages via unpin_user_page(). Please also note the limitation, discussed in pin_user_pages.rst under the "TODO: for 1GB and larger huge pages" section. (That limitation will be removed in a following patch.) The effect of a FOLL_PIN flag is similar to that of FOLL_GET, and may be thought of as "FOLL_GET for DIO and/or RDMA use". Pages that have been pinned via FOLL_PIN are identifiable via a new function call: bool page_maybe_dma_pinned(struct page *page); What to do in response to encountering such a page, is left to later patchsets. There is discussion about this in [1], [2], [3], and [4]. This also changes a BUG_ON(), to a WARN_ON(), in follow_page_mask().

mm: introduce put_user_page*(), placeholder versions A discussion of the overall problem is below. As mentioned in patch 0001, the steps are to fix the problem are: 1) Provide put_user_page*() routines, intended to be used for releasing pages that were pinned via get_user_pages*(). 2) Convert all of the call sites for get_user_pages*(), to invoke put_user_page*(), instead of put_page(). This involves dozens of call sites, and will take some time. 3) After (2) is complete, use get_user_pages*() and put_user_page*() to implement tracking of these pages. This tracking will be separate from the existing struct page refcounting. 4) Use the tracking and identification of these pages, to implement special handling (especially in writeback paths) when the pages are backed by a filesystem. Overview ======== Some kernel components (file systems, device drivers) need to access memory that is specified via process virtual address. For a long time, the API to achieve that was get_user_pages ("GUP") and its variations. However, GUP has critical limitations that have been overlooked; in particular, GUP does not interact correctly with filesystems in all situations. That means that file-backed memory + GUP is a recipe for potential problems, some of which have already occurred in the field. GUP was first introduced for Direct IO (O_DIRECT), allowing filesystem code to get the struct page behind a virtual address and to let storage hardware perform a direct copy to or from that page. This is a short-lived access pattern, and as such, the window for a concurrent writeback of GUP'd page was small enough that there were not (we think) any reported problems. Also, userspace was expected to understand and accept that Direct IO was not synchronized with memory-mapped access to that data, nor with any process address space changes such as munmap(), mremap(), etc. Over the years, more GUP uses have appeared (virtualization, device drivers, RDMA) that can keep the pages they get via GUP for a long period of time (seconds, minutes, hours, days, ...). This long-term pinning makes an underlying design problem more obvious. In fact, there are a number of key problems inherent to GUP: Interactions with file systems ============================== File systems expect to be able to write back data, both to reclaim pages, and for data integrity. Allowing other hardware (NICs, GPUs, etc) to gain write access to the file memory pages means that such hardware can dirty the pages, without the filesystem being aware. This can, in some cases (depending on filesystem, filesystem options, block device, block device options, and other variables), lead to data corruption, and also to kernel bugs of the form: kernel BUG at /build/linux-fQ94TU/linux-4.4.0/fs/ext4/inode.c:1899! backtrace: ext4_writepage __writepage write_cache_pages ext4_writepages do_writepages __writeback_single_inode writeback_sb_inodes __writeback_inodes_wb wb_writeback wb_workfn process_one_work worker_thread kthread ret_from_fork ...which is due to the file system asserting that there are still buffer heads attached: ({ \ BUG_ON(!PagePrivate(page)); \ ((struct buffer_head *)page_private(page)); \ }) Dave Chinner's description of this is very clear: "The fundamental issue is that ->page_mkwrite must be called on every write access to a clean file backed page, not just the first one. How long the GUP reference lasts is irrelevant, if the page is clean and you need to dirty it, you must call ->page_mkwrite before it is marked writeable and dirtied. Every. Time." This is just one symptom of the larger design problem: real filesystems that actually write to a backing device, do not actually support get_user_pages() being called on their pages, and letting hardware write directly to those pages--even though that pattern has been going on since about 2005 or so. Long term GUP ============= Long term GUP is an issue when FOLL_WRITE is specified to GUP (so, a writeable mapping is created), and the pages are file-backed. That can lead to filesystem corruption. What happens is that when a file-backed page is being written back, it is first mapped read-only in all of the CPU page tables; the file system then assumes that nobody can write to the page, and that the page content is therefore stable. Unfortunately, the GUP callers generally do not monitor changes to the CPU pages tables; they instead assume that the following pattern is safe (it's not): get_user_pages() Hardware can keep a reference to those pages for a very long time, and write to it at any time. Because "hardware" here means "devices that are not a CPU", this activity occurs without any interaction with the kernel's file system code. for each page set_page_dirty put_page() In fact, the GUP documentation even recommends that pattern. Anyway, the file system assumes that the page is stable (nothing is writing to the page), and that is a problem: stable page content is necessary for many filesystem actions during writeback, such as checksum, encryption, RAID striping, etc. Furthermore, filesystem features like COW (copy on write) or snapshot also rely on being able to use a new page for as memory for that memory range inside the file. Corruption during write back is clearly possible here. To solve that, one idea is to identify pages that have active GUP, so that we can use a bounce page to write stable data to the filesystem. The filesystem would work on the bounce page, while any of the active GUP might write to the original page. This would avoid the stable page violation problem, but note that it is only part of the overall solution, because other problems remain. Other filesystem features that need to replace the page with a new one can be inhibited for pages that are GUP-pinned. This will, however, alter and limit some of those filesystem features. The only fix for that would be to require GUP users to monitor and respond to CPU page table updates. Subsystems such as ODP and HMM do this, for example. This aspect of the problem is still under discussion. Direct IO ========= Direct IO can cause corruption, if userspace does Direct-IO that writes to a range of virtual addresses that are mmap'd to a file. The pages written to are file-backed pages that can be under write back, while the Direct IO is taking place. Here, Direct IO races with a write back: it calls GUP before page_mkclean() has replaced the CPU pte with a read-only entry. The race window is pretty small, which is probably why years have gone by before we noticed this problem: Direct IO is generally very quick, and tends to finish up before the filesystem gets around to do anything with the page contents. However, it's still a real problem. The solution is to never let GUP return pages that are under write back, but instead, force GUP to take a write fault on those pages. That way, GUP will properly synchronize with the active write back. This does not change the required GUP behavior, it just avoids that race. Details ======= Introduces put_user_page(), which simply calls put_page(). This provides a way to update all get_user_pages*() callers, so that they call put_user_page(), instead of put_page(). Also introduces put_user_pages(), and a few dirty/locked variations, as a replacement for release_pages(), and also as a replacement for open-coded loops that release multiple pages. These may be used for subsequent performance improvements, via batching of pages to be released. This is the first step of fixing a problem (also described in [1] and [2]) with interactions between get_user_pages ("gup") and filesystems. Problem description: let's start with a bug report. Below, is what happens sometimes, under memory pressure, when a driver pins some pages via gup, and then marks those pages dirty, and releases them. Note that the gup documentation actually recommends that pattern. The problem is that the filesystem may do a writeback while the pages were gup-pinned, and then the filesystem believes that the pages are clean. So, when the driver later marks the pages as dirty, that conflicts with the filesystem's page tracking and results in a BUG(), like this one that I experienced: kernel BUG at /build/linux-fQ94TU/linux-4.4.0/fs/ext4/inode.c:1899! backtrace: ext4_writepage __writepage write_cache_pages ext4_writepages do_writepages __writeback_single_inode writeback_sb_inodes __writeback_inodes_wb wb_writeback wb_workfn process_one_work worker_thread kthread ret_from_fork ...which is due to the file system asserting that there are still buffer heads attached: ({ \ BUG_ON(!PagePrivate(page)); \ ((struct buffer_head *)page_private(page)); \ }) Dave Chinner's description of this is very clear: "The fundamental issue is that ->page_mkwrite must be called on every write access to a clean file backed page, not just the first one.

* unpin_user_pages_dirty_lock() - release and optionally dirty gup-pinned pages
mm/gup: add make_dirty arg to put_user_pages_dirty_lock() [11~From: John Hubbard <jhubbard@nvidia.com> Subject: mm/gup: add make_dirty arg to put_user_pages_dirty_lock() Patch series "mm/gup: add make_dirty arg to put_user_pages_dirty_lock()", v3. There are about 50+ patches in my tree [2], and I'll be sending out the remaining ones in a few more groups: * The block/bio related changes (Jerome mostly wrote those, but I've had to move stuff around extensively, and add a little code) * mm/ changes * other subsystem patches * an RFC that shows the current state of the tracking patch set. That can only be applied after all call sites are converted, but it's good to get an early look at it. This is part a tree-wide conversion, as described in fc1d8e7cca2d ("mm: introduce put_user_page*(), placeholder versions"). This patch (of 3): Provide more capable variation of put_user_pages_dirty_lock(), and delete put_user_pages_dirty(). This is based on the following: 1. Lots of call sites become simpler if a bool is passed into put_user_page*(), instead of making the call site choose which put_user_page*() variant to call. 2. Christoph Hellwig's observation that set_page_dirty_lock() is usually correct, and set_page_dirty() is usually a bug, or at least questionable, within a put_user_page*() calling chain. This leads to the following API choices: * put_user_pages_dirty_lock(page, npages, make_dirty) * There is no put_user_pages_dirty(). You have to hand code that, in the rare case that it's required.

How long the GUP reference lasts is irrelevant, if the page is clean and you need to dirty it, you must call ->page_mkwrite before it is marked writeable and dirtied. Every. Time." This is just one symptom of the larger design problem: real filesystems that actually write to a backing device, do not actually support get_user_pages() being called on their pages, and letting hardware write directly to those pages--even though that pattern has been going on since about 2005 or so. The steps are to fix it are: 1) (This patch): provide put_user_page*() routines, intended to be used for releasing pages that were pinned via get_user_pages*(). 2) Convert all of the call sites for get_user_pages*(), to invoke put_user_page*(), instead of put_page(). This involves dozens of call sites, and will take some time. 3) After (2) is complete, use get_user_pages*() and put_user_page*() to implement tracking of these pages. This tracking will be separate from the existing struct page refcounting. 4) Use the tracking and identification of these pages, to implement special handling (especially in writeback paths) when the pages are backed by a filesystem.

* @make_dirty: whether to mark the pages dirty
mm: introduce put_user_page*(), placeholder versions A discussion of the overall problem is below. As mentioned in patch 0001, the steps are to fix the problem are: 1) Provide put_user_page*() routines, intended to be used for releasing pages that were pinned via get_user_pages*(). 2) Convert all of the call sites for get_user_pages*(), to invoke put_user_page*(), instead of put_page(). This involves dozens of call sites, and will take some time. 3) After (2) is complete, use get_user_pages*() and put_user_page*() to implement tracking of these pages. This tracking will be separate from the existing struct page refcounting. 4) Use the tracking and identification of these pages, to implement special handling (especially in writeback paths) when the pages are backed by a filesystem. Overview ======== Some kernel components (file systems, device drivers) need to access memory that is specified via process virtual address. For a long time, the API to achieve that was get_user_pages ("GUP") and its variations. However, GUP has critical limitations that have been overlooked; in particular, GUP does not interact correctly with filesystems in all situations. That means that file-backed memory + GUP is a recipe for potential problems, some of which have already occurred in the field. GUP was first introduced for Direct IO (O_DIRECT), allowing filesystem code to get the struct page behind a virtual address and to let storage hardware perform a direct copy to or from that page. This is a short-lived access pattern, and as such, the window for a concurrent writeback of GUP'd page was small enough that there were not (we think) any reported problems. Also, userspace was expected to understand and accept that Direct IO was not synchronized with memory-mapped access to that data, nor with any process address space changes such as munmap(), mremap(), etc. Over the years, more GUP uses have appeared (virtualization, device drivers, RDMA) that can keep the pages they get via GUP for a long period of time (seconds, minutes, hours, days, ...). This long-term pinning makes an underlying design problem more obvious. In fact, there are a number of key problems inherent to GUP: Interactions with file systems ============================== File systems expect to be able to write back data, both to reclaim pages, and for data integrity. Allowing other hardware (NICs, GPUs, etc) to gain write access to the file memory pages means that such hardware can dirty the pages, without the filesystem being aware. This can, in some cases (depending on filesystem, filesystem options, block device, block device options, and other variables), lead to data corruption, and also to kernel bugs of the form: kernel BUG at /build/linux-fQ94TU/linux-4.4.0/fs/ext4/inode.c:1899! backtrace: ext4_writepage __writepage write_cache_pages ext4_writepages do_writepages __writeback_single_inode writeback_sb_inodes __writeback_inodes_wb wb_writeback wb_workfn process_one_work worker_thread kthread ret_from_fork ...which is due to the file system asserting that there are still buffer heads attached: ({ \ BUG_ON(!PagePrivate(page)); \ ((struct buffer_head *)page_private(page)); \ }) Dave Chinner's description of this is very clear: "The fundamental issue is that ->page_mkwrite must be called on every write access to a clean file backed page, not just the first one. How long the GUP reference lasts is irrelevant, if the page is clean and you need to dirty it, you must call ->page_mkwrite before it is marked writeable and dirtied. Every. Time." This is just one symptom of the larger design problem: real filesystems that actually write to a backing device, do not actually support get_user_pages() being called on their pages, and letting hardware write directly to those pages--even though that pattern has been going on since about 2005 or so. Long term GUP ============= Long term GUP is an issue when FOLL_WRITE is specified to GUP (so, a writeable mapping is created), and the pages are file-backed. That can lead to filesystem corruption. What happens is that when a file-backed page is being written back, it is first mapped read-only in all of the CPU page tables; the file system then assumes that nobody can write to the page, and that the page content is therefore stable. Unfortunately, the GUP callers generally do not monitor changes to the CPU pages tables; they instead assume that the following pattern is safe (it's not): get_user_pages() Hardware can keep a reference to those pages for a very long time, and write to it at any time. Because "hardware" here means "devices that are not a CPU", this activity occurs without any interaction with the kernel's file system code. for each page set_page_dirty put_page() In fact, the GUP documentation even recommends that pattern. Anyway, the file system assumes that the page is stable (nothing is writing to the page), and that is a problem: stable page content is necessary for many filesystem actions during writeback, such as checksum, encryption, RAID striping, etc. Furthermore, filesystem features like COW (copy on write) or snapshot also rely on being able to use a new page for as memory for that memory range inside the file. Corruption during write back is clearly possible here. To solve that, one idea is to identify pages that have active GUP, so that we can use a bounce page to write stable data to the filesystem. The filesystem would work on the bounce page, while any of the active GUP might write to the original page. This would avoid the stable page violation problem, but note that it is only part of the overall solution, because other problems remain. Other filesystem features that need to replace the page with a new one can be inhibited for pages that are GUP-pinned. This will, however, alter and limit some of those filesystem features. The only fix for that would be to require GUP users to monitor and respond to CPU page table updates. Subsystems such as ODP and HMM do this, for example. This aspect of the problem is still under discussion. Direct IO ========= Direct IO can cause corruption, if userspace does Direct-IO that writes to a range of virtual addresses that are mmap'd to a file. The pages written to are file-backed pages that can be under write back, while the Direct IO is taking place. Here, Direct IO races with a write back: it calls GUP before page_mkclean() has replaced the CPU pte with a read-only entry. The race window is pretty small, which is probably why years have gone by before we noticed this problem: Direct IO is generally very quick, and tends to finish up before the filesystem gets around to do anything with the page contents. However, it's still a real problem. The solution is to never let GUP return pages that are under write back, but instead, force GUP to take a write fault on those pages. That way, GUP will properly synchronize with the active write back. This does not change the required GUP behavior, it just avoids that race. Details ======= Introduces put_user_page(), which simply calls put_page(). This provides a way to update all get_user_pages*() callers, so that they call put_user_page(), instead of put_page(). Also introduces put_user_pages(), and a few dirty/locked variations, as a replacement for release_pages(), and also as a replacement for open-coded loops that release multiple pages. These may be used for subsequent performance improvements, via batching of pages to be released. This is the first step of fixing a problem (also described in [1] and [2]) with interactions between get_user_pages ("gup") and filesystems. Problem description: let's start with a bug report. Below, is what happens sometimes, under memory pressure, when a driver pins some pages via gup, and then marks those pages dirty, and releases them. Note that the gup documentation actually recommends that pattern. The problem is that the filesystem may do a writeback while the pages were gup-pinned, and then the filesystem believes that the pages are clean. So, when the driver later marks the pages as dirty, that conflicts with the filesystem's page tracking and results in a BUG(), like this one that I experienced: kernel BUG at /build/linux-fQ94TU/linux-4.4.0/fs/ext4/inode.c:1899! backtrace: ext4_writepage __writepage write_cache_pages ext4_writepages do_writepages __writeback_single_inode writeback_sb_inodes __writeback_inodes_wb wb_writeback wb_workfn process_one_work worker_thread kthread ret_from_fork ...which is due to the file system asserting that there are still buffer heads attached: ({ \ BUG_ON(!PagePrivate(page)); \ ((struct buffer_head *)page_private(page)); \ }) Dave Chinner's description of this is very clear: "The fundamental issue is that ->page_mkwrite must be called on every write access to a clean file backed page, not just the first one.

As mentioned in patch 0001, the steps are to fix the problem are: 1) Provide put_user_page*() routines, intended to be used for releasing pages that were pinned via get_user_pages*(). 2) Convert all of the call sites for get_user_pages*(), to invoke put_user_page*(), instead of put_page(). This involves dozens of call sites, and will take some time. 3) After (2) is complete, use get_user_pages*() and put_user_page*() to implement tracking of these pages. This tracking will be separate from the existing struct page refcounting. 4) Use the tracking and identification of these pages, to implement special handling (especially in writeback paths) when the pages are backed by a filesystem. Overview ======== Some kernel components (file systems, device drivers) need to access memory that is specified via process virtual address. For a long time, the API to achieve that was get_user_pages ("GUP") and its variations. However, GUP has critical limitations that have been overlooked; in particular, GUP does not interact correctly with filesystems in all situations. That means that file-backed memory + GUP is a recipe for potential problems, some of which have already occurred in the field. GUP was first introduced for Direct IO (O_DIRECT), allowing filesystem code to get the struct page behind a virtual address and to let storage hardware perform a direct copy to or from that page. This is a short-lived access pattern, and as such, the window for a concurrent writeback of GUP'd page was small enough that there were not (we think) any reported problems. Also, userspace was expected to understand and accept that Direct IO was not synchronized with memory-mapped access to that data, nor with any process address space changes such as munmap(), mremap(), etc. Over the years, more GUP uses have appeared (virtualization, device drivers, RDMA) that can keep the pages they get via GUP for a long period of time (seconds, minutes, hours, days, ...). This long-term pinning makes an underlying design problem more obvious. In fact, there are a number of key problems inherent to GUP: Interactions with file systems ============================== File systems expect to be able to write back data, both to reclaim pages, and for data integrity. Allowing other hardware (NICs, GPUs, etc) to gain write access to the file memory pages means that such hardware can dirty the pages, without the filesystem being aware. This can, in some cases (depending on filesystem, filesystem options, block device, block device options, and other variables), lead to data corruption, and also to kernel bugs of the form: kernel BUG at /build/linux-fQ94TU/linux-4.4.0/fs/ext4/inode.c:1899! backtrace: ext4_writepage __writepage write_cache_pages ext4_writepages do_writepages __writeback_single_inode writeback_sb_inodes __writeback_inodes_wb wb_writeback wb_workfn process_one_work worker_thread kthread ret_from_fork ...which is due to the file system asserting that there are still buffer heads attached: ({ \ BUG_ON(!PagePrivate(page)); \ ((struct buffer_head *)page_private(page)); \ }) Dave Chinner's description of this is very clear: "The fundamental issue is that ->page_mkwrite must be called on every write access to a clean file backed page, not just the first one. How long the GUP reference lasts is irrelevant, if the page is clean and you need to dirty it, you must call ->page_mkwrite before it is marked writeable and dirtied. Every. Time." This is just one symptom of the larger design problem: real filesystems that actually write to a backing device, do not actually support get_user_pages() being called on their pages, and letting hardware write directly to those pages--even though that pattern has been going on since about 2005 or so. Long term GUP ============= Long term GUP is an issue when FOLL_WRITE is specified to GUP (so, a writeable mapping is created), and the pages are file-backed. That can lead to filesystem corruption. What happens is that when a file-backed page is being written back, it is first mapped read-only in all of the CPU page tables; the file system then assumes that nobody can write to the page, and that the page content is therefore stable. Unfortunately, the GUP callers generally do not monitor changes to the CPU pages tables; they instead assume that the following pattern is safe (it's not): get_user_pages() Hardware can keep a reference to those pages for a very long time, and write to it at any time. Because "hardware" here means "devices that are not a CPU", this activity occurs without any interaction with the kernel's file system code. for each page set_page_dirty put_page() In fact, the GUP documentation even recommends that pattern. Anyway, the file system assumes that the page is stable (nothing is writing to the page), and that is a problem: stable page content is necessary for many filesystem actions during writeback, such as checksum, encryption, RAID striping, etc. Furthermore, filesystem features like COW (copy on write) or snapshot also rely on being able to use a new page for as memory for that memory range inside the file. Corruption during write back is clearly possible here. To solve that, one idea is to identify pages that have active GUP, so that we can use a bounce page to write stable data to the filesystem. The filesystem would work on the bounce page, while any of the active GUP might write to the original page. This would avoid the stable page violation problem, but note that it is only part of the overall solution, because other problems remain. Other filesystem features that need to replace the page with a new one can be inhibited for pages that are GUP-pinned. This will, however, alter and limit some of those filesystem features. The only fix for that would be to require GUP users to monitor and respond to CPU page table updates. Subsystems such as ODP and HMM do this, for example. This aspect of the problem is still under discussion. Direct IO ========= Direct IO can cause corruption, if userspace does Direct-IO that writes to a range of virtual addresses that are mmap'd to a file. The pages written to are file-backed pages that can be under write back, while the Direct IO is taking place. Here, Direct IO races with a write back: it calls GUP before page_mkclean() has replaced the CPU pte with a read-only entry. The race window is pretty small, which is probably why years have gone by before we noticed this problem: Direct IO is generally very quick, and tends to finish up before the filesystem gets around to do anything with the page contents. However, it's still a real problem. The solution is to never let GUP return pages that are under write back, but instead, force GUP to take a write fault on those pages. That way, GUP will properly synchronize with the active write back. This does not change the required GUP behavior, it just avoids that race. Details ======= Introduces put_user_page(), which simply calls put_page(). This provides a way to update all get_user_pages*() callers, so that they call put_user_page(), instead of put_page(). Also introduces put_user_pages(), and a few dirty/locked variations, as a replacement for release_pages(), and also as a replacement for open-coded loops that release multiple pages. These may be used for subsequent performance improvements, via batching of pages to be released. This is the first step of fixing a problem (also described in [1] and [2]) with interactions between get_user_pages ("gup") and filesystems. Problem description: let's start with a bug report. Below, is what happens sometimes, under memory pressure, when a driver pins some pages via gup, and then marks those pages dirty, and releases them. Note that the gup documentation actually recommends that pattern. The problem is that the filesystem may do a writeback while the pages were gup-pinned, and then the filesystem believes that the pages are clean. So, when the driver later marks the pages as dirty, that conflicts with the filesystem's page tracking and results in a BUG(), like this one that I experienced: kernel BUG at /build/linux-fQ94TU/linux-4.4.0/fs/ext4/inode.c:1899! backtrace: ext4_writepage __writepage write_cache_pages ext4_writepages do_writepages __writeback_single_inode writeback_sb_inodes __writeback_inodes_wb wb_writeback wb_workfn process_one_work worker_thread kthread ret_from_fork ...which is due to the file system asserting that there are still buffer heads attached: ({ \ BUG_ON(!PagePrivate(page)); \ ((struct buffer_head *)page_private(page)); \ }) Dave Chinner's description of this is very clear: "The fundamental issue is that ->page_mkwrite must be called on every write access to a clean file backed page, not just the first one.

mm/gup: add make_dirty arg to put_user_pages_dirty_lock() [11~From: John Hubbard <jhubbard@nvidia.com> Subject: mm/gup: add make_dirty arg to put_user_pages_dirty_lock() Patch series "mm/gup: add make_dirty arg to put_user_pages_dirty_lock()", v3. There are about 50+ patches in my tree [2], and I'll be sending out the remaining ones in a few more groups: * The block/bio related changes (Jerome mostly wrote those, but I've had to move stuff around extensively, and add a little code) * mm/ changes * other subsystem patches * an RFC that shows the current state of the tracking patch set. That can only be applied after all call sites are converted, but it's good to get an early look at it. This is part a tree-wide conversion, as described in fc1d8e7cca2d ("mm: introduce put_user_page*(), placeholder versions"). This patch (of 3): Provide more capable variation of put_user_pages_dirty_lock(), and delete put_user_pages_dirty(). This is based on the following: 1. Lots of call sites become simpler if a bool is passed into put_user_page*(), instead of making the call site choose which put_user_page*() variant to call. 2. Christoph Hellwig's observation that set_page_dirty_lock() is usually correct, and set_page_dirty() is usually a bug, or at least questionable, within a put_user_page*() calling chain. This leads to the following API choices: * put_user_pages_dirty_lock(page, npages, make_dirty) * There is no put_user_pages_dirty(). You have to hand code that, in the rare case that it's required.

* set_page_dirty_lock() is used internally. If instead, set_page_dirty() is
* required, then the caller should a) verify that this is really correct,
* because _lock() is usually required, and b) hand code it:
* set_page_dirty_lock(), unpin_user_page().

This is the first step of fixing a problem (also described in [1] and [2]) with interactions between get_user_pages ("gup") and filesystems. Problem description: let's start with a bug report. Below, is what happens sometimes, under memory pressure, when a driver pins some pages via gup, and then marks those pages dirty, and releases them. Note that the gup documentation actually recommends that pattern. The problem is that the filesystem may do a writeback while the pages were gup-pinned, and then the filesystem believes that the pages are clean. So, when the driver later marks the pages as dirty, that conflicts with the filesystem's page tracking and results in a BUG(), like this one that I experienced: kernel BUG at /build/linux-fQ94TU/linux-4.4.0/fs/ext4/inode.c:1899! backtrace: ext4_writepage __writepage write_cache_pages ext4_writepages do_writepages __writeback_single_inode writeback_sb_inodes __writeback_inodes_wb wb_writeback wb_workfn process_one_work worker_thread kthread ret_from_fork ...which is due to the file system asserting that there are still buffer heads attached: ({ \ BUG_ON(!PagePrivate(page)); \ ((struct buffer_head *)page_private(page)); \ }) Dave Chinner's description of this is very clear: "The fundamental issue is that ->page_mkwrite must be called on every write access to a clean file backed page, not just the first one. How long the GUP reference lasts is irrelevant, if the page is clean and you need to dirty it, you must call ->page_mkwrite before it is marked writeable and dirtied. Every. Time." This is just one symptom of the larger design problem: real filesystems that actually write to a backing device, do not actually support get_user_pages() being called on their pages, and letting hardware write directly to those pages--even though that pattern has been going on since about 2005 or so. The steps are to fix it are: 1) (This patch): provide put_user_page*() routines, intended to be used for releasing pages that were pinned via get_user_pages*(). 2) Convert all of the call sites for get_user_pages*(), to invoke put_user_page*(), instead of put_page(). This involves dozens of call sites, and will take some time. 3) After (2) is complete, use get_user_pages*() and put_user_page*() to implement tracking of these pages. This tracking will be separate from the existing struct page refcounting. 4) Use the tracking and identification of these pages, to implement special handling (especially in writeback paths) when the pages are backed by a filesystem.

mm: introduce put_user_page*(), placeholder versions A discussion of the overall problem is below. As mentioned in patch 0001, the steps are to fix the problem are: 1) Provide put_user_page*() routines, intended to be used for releasing pages that were pinned via get_user_pages*(). 2) Convert all of the call sites for get_user_pages*(), to invoke put_user_page*(), instead of put_page(). This involves dozens of call sites, and will take some time. 3) After (2) is complete, use get_user_pages*() and put_user_page*() to implement tracking of these pages. This tracking will be separate from the existing struct page refcounting. 4) Use the tracking and identification of these pages, to implement special handling (especially in writeback paths) when the pages are backed by a filesystem. Overview ======== Some kernel components (file systems, device drivers) need to access memory that is specified via process virtual address. For a long time, the API to achieve that was get_user_pages ("GUP") and its variations. However, GUP has critical limitations that have been overlooked; in particular, GUP does not interact correctly with filesystems in all situations. That means that file-backed memory + GUP is a recipe for potential problems, some of which have already occurred in the field. GUP was first introduced for Direct IO (O_DIRECT), allowing filesystem code to get the struct page behind a virtual address and to let storage hardware perform a direct copy to or from that page. This is a short-lived access pattern, and as such, the window for a concurrent writeback of GUP'd page was small enough that there were not (we think) any reported problems. Also, userspace was expected to understand and accept that Direct IO was not synchronized with memory-mapped access to that data, nor with any process address space changes such as munmap(), mremap(), etc. Over the years, more GUP uses have appeared (virtualization, device drivers, RDMA) that can keep the pages they get via GUP for a long period of time (seconds, minutes, hours, days, ...). This long-term pinning makes an underlying design problem more obvious. In fact, there are a number of key problems inherent to GUP: Interactions with file systems ============================== File systems expect to be able to write back data, both to reclaim pages, and for data integrity. Allowing other hardware (NICs, GPUs, etc) to gain write access to the file memory pages means that such hardware can dirty the pages, without the filesystem being aware. This can, in some cases (depending on filesystem, filesystem options, block device, block device options, and other variables), lead to data corruption, and also to kernel bugs of the form: kernel BUG at /build/linux-fQ94TU/linux-4.4.0/fs/ext4/inode.c:1899! backtrace: ext4_writepage __writepage write_cache_pages ext4_writepages do_writepages __writeback_single_inode writeback_sb_inodes __writeback_inodes_wb wb_writeback wb_workfn process_one_work worker_thread kthread ret_from_fork ...which is due to the file system asserting that there are still buffer heads attached: ({ \ BUG_ON(!PagePrivate(page)); \ ((struct buffer_head *)page_private(page)); \ }) Dave Chinner's description of this is very clear: "The fundamental issue is that ->page_mkwrite must be called on every write access to a clean file backed page, not just the first one. How long the GUP reference lasts is irrelevant, if the page is clean and you need to dirty it, you must call ->page_mkwrite before it is marked writeable and dirtied. Every. Time." This is just one symptom of the larger design problem: real filesystems that actually write to a backing device, do not actually support get_user_pages() being called on their pages, and letting hardware write directly to those pages--even though that pattern has been going on since about 2005 or so. Long term GUP ============= Long term GUP is an issue when FOLL_WRITE is specified to GUP (so, a writeable mapping is created), and the pages are file-backed. That can lead to filesystem corruption. What happens is that when a file-backed page is being written back, it is first mapped read-only in all of the CPU page tables; the file system then assumes that nobody can write to the page, and that the page content is therefore stable. Unfortunately, the GUP callers generally do not monitor changes to the CPU pages tables; they instead assume that the following pattern is safe (it's not): get_user_pages() Hardware can keep a reference to those pages for a very long time, and write to it at any time. Because "hardware" here means "devices that are not a CPU", this activity occurs without any interaction with the kernel's file system code. for each page set_page_dirty put_page() In fact, the GUP documentation even recommends that pattern. Anyway, the file system assumes that the page is stable (nothing is writing to the page), and that is a problem: stable page content is necessary for many filesystem actions during writeback, such as checksum, encryption, RAID striping, etc. Furthermore, filesystem features like COW (copy on write) or snapshot also rely on being able to use a new page for as memory for that memory range inside the file. Corruption during write back is clearly possible here. To solve that, one idea is to identify pages that have active GUP, so that we can use a bounce page to write stable data to the filesystem. The filesystem would work on the bounce page, while any of the active GUP might write to the original page. This would avoid the stable page violation problem, but note that it is only part of the overall solution, because other problems remain. Other filesystem features that need to replace the page with a new one can be inhibited for pages that are GUP-pinned. This will, however, alter and limit some of those filesystem features. The only fix for that would be to require GUP users to monitor and respond to CPU page table updates. Subsystems such as ODP and HMM do this, for example. This aspect of the problem is still under discussion. Direct IO ========= Direct IO can cause corruption, if userspace does Direct-IO that writes to a range of virtual addresses that are mmap'd to a file. The pages written to are file-backed pages that can be under write back, while the Direct IO is taking place. Here, Direct IO races with a write back: it calls GUP before page_mkclean() has replaced the CPU pte with a read-only entry. The race window is pretty small, which is probably why years have gone by before we noticed this problem: Direct IO is generally very quick, and tends to finish up before the filesystem gets around to do anything with the page contents. However, it's still a real problem. The solution is to never let GUP return pages that are under write back, but instead, force GUP to take a write fault on those pages. That way, GUP will properly synchronize with the active write back. This does not change the required GUP behavior, it just avoids that race. Details ======= Introduces put_user_page(), which simply calls put_page(). This provides a way to update all get_user_pages*() callers, so that they call put_user_page(), instead of put_page(). Also introduces put_user_pages(), and a few dirty/locked variations, as a replacement for release_pages(), and also as a replacement for open-coded loops that release multiple pages. These may be used for subsequent performance improvements, via batching of pages to be released. This is the first step of fixing a problem (also described in [1] and [2]) with interactions between get_user_pages ("gup") and filesystems. Problem description: let's start with a bug report.

Because "hardware" here means "devices that are not a CPU", this activity occurs without any interaction with the kernel's file system code. for each page set_page_dirty put_page() In fact, the GUP documentation even recommends that pattern. Anyway, the file system assumes that the page is stable (nothing is writing to the page), and that is a problem: stable page content is necessary for many filesystem actions during writeback, such as checksum, encryption, RAID striping, etc. Furthermore, filesystem features like COW (copy on write) or snapshot also rely on being able to use a new page for as memory for that memory range inside the file. Corruption during write back is clearly possible here. To solve that, one idea is to identify pages that have active GUP, so that we can use a bounce page to write stable data to the filesystem. The filesystem would work on the bounce page, while any of the active GUP might write to the original page. This would avoid the stable page violation problem, but note that it is only part of the overall solution, because other problems remain. Other filesystem features that need to replace the page with a new one can be inhibited for pages that are GUP-pinned. This will, however, alter and limit some of those filesystem features. The only fix for that would be to require GUP users to monitor and respond to CPU page table updates. Subsystems such as ODP and HMM do this, for example. This aspect of the problem is still under discussion. Direct IO ========= Direct IO can cause corruption, if userspace does Direct-IO that writes to a range of virtual addresses that are mmap'd to a file. The pages written to are file-backed pages that can be under write back, while the Direct IO is taking place. Here, Direct IO races with a write back: it calls GUP before page_mkclean() has replaced the CPU pte with a read-only entry. The race window is pretty small, which is probably why years have gone by before we noticed this problem: Direct IO is generally very quick, and tends to finish up before the filesystem gets around to do anything with the page contents. However, it's still a real problem. The solution is to never let GUP return pages that are under write back, but instead, force GUP to take a write fault on those pages. That way, GUP will properly synchronize with the active write back. This does not change the required GUP behavior, it just avoids that race. Details ======= Introduces put_user_page(), which simply calls put_page(). This provides a way to update all get_user_pages*() callers, so that they call put_user_page(), instead of put_page(). Also introduces put_user_pages(), and a few dirty/locked variations, as a replacement for release_pages(), and also as a replacement for open-coded loops that release multiple pages. These may be used for subsequent performance improvements, via batching of pages to be released. This is the first step of fixing a problem (also described in [1] and [2]) with interactions between get_user_pages ("gup") and filesystems. Problem description: let's start with a bug report. Below, is what happens sometimes, under memory pressure, when a driver pins some pages via gup, and then marks those pages dirty, and releases them. Note that the gup documentation actually recommends that pattern. The problem is that the filesystem may do a writeback while the pages were gup-pinned, and then the filesystem believes that the pages are clean. So, when the driver later marks the pages as dirty, that conflicts with the filesystem's page tracking and results in a BUG(), like this one that I experienced: kernel BUG at /build/linux-fQ94TU/linux-4.4.0/fs/ext4/inode.c:1899! backtrace: ext4_writepage __writepage write_cache_pages ext4_writepages do_writepages __writeback_single_inode writeback_sb_inodes __writeback_inodes_wb wb_writeback wb_workfn process_one_work worker_thread kthread ret_from_fork ...which is due to the file system asserting that there are still buffer heads attached: ({ \ BUG_ON(!PagePrivate(page)); \ ((struct buffer_head *)page_private(page)); \ }) Dave Chinner's description of this is very clear: "The fundamental issue is that ->page_mkwrite must be called on every write access to a clean file backed page, not just the first one. How long the GUP reference lasts is irrelevant, if the page is clean and you need to dirty it, you must call ->page_mkwrite before it is marked writeable and dirtied. Every. Time." This is just one symptom of the larger design problem: real filesystems that actually write to a backing device, do not actually support get_user_pages() being called on their pages, and letting hardware write directly to those pages--even though that pattern has been going on since about 2005 or so. The steps are to fix it are: 1) (This patch): provide put_user_page*() routines, intended to be used for releasing pages that were pinned via get_user_pages*(). 2) Convert all of the call sites for get_user_pages*(), to invoke put_user_page*(), instead of put_page(). This involves dozens of call sites, and will take some time. 3) After (2) is complete, use get_user_pages*() and put_user_page*() to implement tracking of these pages. This tracking will be separate from the existing struct page refcounting. 4) Use the tracking and identification of these pages, to implement special handling (especially in writeback paths) when the pages are backed by a filesystem.

mm: introduce put_user_page*(), placeholder versions A discussion of the overall problem is below. As mentioned in patch 0001, the steps are to fix the problem are: 1) Provide put_user_page*() routines, intended to be used for releasing pages that were pinned via get_user_pages*(). 2) Convert all of the call sites for get_user_pages*(), to invoke put_user_page*(), instead of put_page().

This tracking will be separate from the existing struct page refcounting. 4) Use the tracking and identification of these pages, to implement special handling (especially in writeback paths) when the pages are backed by a filesystem. Overview ======== Some kernel components (file systems, device drivers) need to access memory that is specified via process virtual address. For a long time, the API to achieve that was get_user_pages ("GUP") and its variations. However, GUP has critical limitations that have been overlooked; in particular, GUP does not interact correctly with filesystems in all situations. That means that file-backed memory + GUP is a recipe for potential problems, some of which have already occurred in the field. GUP was first introduced for Direct IO (O_DIRECT), allowing filesystem code to get the struct page behind a virtual address and to let storage hardware perform a direct copy to or from that page. This is a short-lived access pattern, and as such, the window for a concurrent writeback of GUP'd page was small enough that there were not (we think) any reported problems. Also, userspace was expected to understand and accept that Direct IO was not synchronized with memory-mapped access to that data, nor with any process address space changes such as munmap(), mremap(), etc. Over the years, more GUP uses have appeared (virtualization, device drivers, RDMA) that can keep the pages they get via GUP for a long period of time (seconds, minutes, hours, days, ...). This long-term pinning makes an underlying design problem more obvious. In fact, there are a number of key problems inherent to GUP: Interactions with file systems ============================== File systems expect to be able to write back data, both to reclaim pages, and for data integrity. Allowing other hardware (NICs, GPUs, etc) to gain write access to the file memory pages means that such hardware can dirty the pages, without the filesystem being aware. This can, in some cases (depending on filesystem, filesystem options, block device, block device options, and other variables), lead to data corruption, and also to kernel bugs of the form: kernel BUG at /build/linux-fQ94TU/linux-4.4.0/fs/ext4/inode.c:1899! backtrace: ext4_writepage __writepage write_cache_pages ext4_writepages do_writepages __writeback_single_inode writeback_sb_inodes __writeback_inodes_wb wb_writeback wb_workfn process_one_work worker_thread kthread ret_from_fork ...which is due to the file system asserting that there are still buffer heads attached: ({ \ BUG_ON(!PagePrivate(page)); \ ((struct buffer_head *)page_private(page)); \ }) Dave Chinner's description of this is very clear: "The fundamental issue is that ->page_mkwrite must be called on every write access to a clean file backed page, not just the first one.

Long term GUP ============= Long term GUP is an issue when FOLL_WRITE is specified to GUP (so, a writeable mapping is created), and the pages are file-backed. That can lead to filesystem corruption.

This can, in some cases (depending on filesystem, filesystem options, block device, block device options, and other variables), lead to data corruption, and also to kernel bugs of the form: kernel BUG at /build/linux-fQ94TU/linux-4.4.0/fs/ext4/inode.c:1899! backtrace: ext4_writepage __writepage write_cache_pages ext4_writepages do_writepages __writeback_single_inode writeback_sb_inodes __writeback_inodes_wb wb_writeback wb_workfn process_one_work worker_thread kthread ret_from_fork ...which is due to the file system asserting that there are still buffer heads attached: ({ \ BUG_ON(!PagePrivate(page)); \ ((struct buffer_head *)page_private(page)); \ }) Dave Chinner's description of this is very clear: "The fundamental issue is that ->page_mkwrite must be called on every write access to a clean file backed page, not just the first one. How long the GUP reference lasts is irrelevant, if the page is clean and you need to dirty it, you must call ->page_mkwrite before it is marked writeable and dirtied. Every. Time." This is just one symptom of the larger design problem: real filesystems that actually write to a backing device, do not actually support get_user_pages() being called on their pages, and letting hardware write directly to those pages--even though that pattern has been going on since about 2005 or so. Long term GUP ============= Long term GUP is an issue when FOLL_WRITE is specified to GUP (so, a writeable mapping is created), and the pages are file-backed. That can lead to filesystem corruption. What happens is that when a file-backed page is being written back, it is first mapped read-only in all of the CPU page tables; the file system then assumes that nobody can write to the page, and that the page content is therefore stable. Unfortunately, the GUP callers generally do not monitor changes to the CPU pages tables; they instead assume that the following pattern is safe (it's not): get_user_pages() Hardware can keep a reference to those pages for a very long time, and write to it at any time. Because "hardware" here means "devices that are not a CPU", this activity occurs without any interaction with the kernel's file system code. for each page set_page_dirty put_page() In fact, the GUP documentation even recommends that pattern. Anyway, the file system assumes that the page is stable (nothing is writing to the page), and that is a problem: stable page content is necessary for many filesystem actions during writeback, such as checksum, encryption, RAID striping, etc. Furthermore, filesystem features like COW (copy on write) or snapshot also rely on being able to use a new page for as memory for that memory range inside the file. Corruption during write back is clearly possible here. To solve that, one idea is to identify pages that have active GUP, so that we can use a bounce page to write stable data to the filesystem. The filesystem would work on the bounce page, while any of the active GUP might write to the original page. This would avoid the stable page violation problem, but note that it is only part of the overall solution, because other problems remain. Other filesystem features that need to replace the page with a new one can be inhibited for pages that are GUP-pinned. This will, however, alter and limit some of those filesystem features. The only fix for that would be to require GUP users to monitor and respond to CPU page table updates. Subsystems such as ODP and HMM do this, for example. This aspect of the problem is still under discussion. Direct IO ========= Direct IO can cause corruption, if userspace does Direct-IO that writes to a range of virtual addresses that are mmap'd to a file. The pages written to are file-backed pages that can be under write back, while the Direct IO is taking place. Here, Direct IO races with a write back: it calls GUP before page_mkclean() has replaced the CPU pte with a read-only entry. The race window is pretty small, which is probably why years have gone by before we noticed this problem: Direct IO is generally very quick, and tends to finish up before the filesystem gets around to do anything with the page contents. However, it's still a real problem. The solution is to never let GUP return pages that are under write back, but instead, force GUP to take a write fault on those pages. That way, GUP will properly synchronize with the active write back. This does not change the required GUP behavior, it just avoids that race. Details ======= Introduces put_user_page(), which simply calls put_page(). This provides a way to update all get_user_pages*() callers, so that they call put_user_page(), instead of put_page(). Also introduces put_user_pages(), and a few dirty/locked variations, as a replacement for release_pages(), and also as a replacement for open-coded loops that release multiple pages. These may be used for subsequent performance improvements, via batching of pages to be released. This is the first step of fixing a problem (also described in [1] and [2]) with interactions between get_user_pages ("gup") and filesystems. Problem description: let's start with a bug report. Below, is what happens sometimes, under memory pressure, when a driver pins some pages via gup, and then marks those pages dirty, and releases them. Note that the gup documentation actually recommends that pattern. The problem is that the filesystem may do a writeback while the pages were gup-pinned, and then the filesystem believes that the pages are clean. So, when the driver later marks the pages as dirty, that conflicts with the filesystem's page tracking and results in a BUG(), like this one that I experienced: kernel BUG at /build/linux-fQ94TU/linux-4.4.0/fs/ext4/inode.c:1899! backtrace: ext4_writepage __writepage write_cache_pages ext4_writepages do_writepages __writeback_single_inode writeback_sb_inodes __writeback_inodes_wb wb_writeback wb_workfn process_one_work worker_thread kthread ret_from_fork ...which is due to the file system asserting that there are still buffer heads attached: ({ \ BUG_ON(!PagePrivate(page)); \ ((struct buffer_head *)page_private(page)); \ }) Dave Chinner's description of this is very clear: "The fundamental issue is that ->page_mkwrite must be called on every write access to a clean file backed page, not just the first one.

The steps are to fix it are: 1) (This patch): provide put_user_page*() routines, intended to be used for releasing pages that were pinned via get_user_pages*(). 2) Convert all of the call sites for get_user_pages*(), to invoke put_user_page*(), instead of put_page().

mm: introduce put_user_page*(), placeholder versions A discussion of the overall problem is below. As mentioned in patch 0001, the steps are to fix the problem are: 1) Provide put_user_page*() routines, intended to be used for releasing pages that were pinned via get_user_pages*(). 2) Convert all of the call sites for get_user_pages*(), to invoke put_user_page*(), instead of put_page(). This involves dozens of call sites, and will take some time. 3) After (2) is complete, use get_user_pages*() and put_user_page*() to implement tracking of these pages. This tracking will be separate from the existing struct page refcounting. 4) Use the tracking and identification of these pages, to implement special handling (especially in writeback paths) when the pages are backed by a filesystem. Overview ======== Some kernel components (file systems, device drivers) need to access memory that is specified via process virtual address. For a long time, the API to achieve that was get_user_pages ("GUP") and its variations. However, GUP has critical limitations that have been overlooked; in particular, GUP does not interact correctly with filesystems in all situations. That means that file-backed memory + GUP is a recipe for potential problems, some of which have already occurred in the field. GUP was first introduced for Direct IO (O_DIRECT), allowing filesystem code to get the struct page behind a virtual address and to let storage hardware perform a direct copy to or from that page. This is a short-lived access pattern, and as such, the window for a concurrent writeback of GUP'd page was small enough that there were not (we think) any reported problems. Also, userspace was expected to understand and accept that Direct IO was not synchronized with memory-mapped access to that data, nor with any process address space changes such as munmap(), mremap(), etc. Over the years, more GUP uses have appeared (virtualization, device drivers, RDMA) that can keep the pages they get via GUP for a long period of time (seconds, minutes, hours, days, ...). This long-term pinning makes an underlying design problem more obvious. In fact, there are a number of key problems inherent to GUP: Interactions with file systems ============================== File systems expect to be able to write back data, both to reclaim pages, and for data integrity. Allowing other hardware (NICs, GPUs, etc) to gain write access to the file memory pages means that such hardware can dirty the pages, without the filesystem being aware.

This tracking will be separate from the existing struct page refcounting. 4) Use the tracking and identification of these pages, to implement special handling (especially in writeback paths) when the pages are backed by a filesystem. Overview ======== Some kernel components (file systems, device drivers) need to access memory that is specified via process virtual address. For a long time, the API to achieve that was get_user_pages ("GUP") and its variations. However, GUP has critical limitations that have been overlooked; in particular, GUP does not interact correctly with filesystems in all situations. That means that file-backed memory + GUP is a recipe for potential problems, some of which have already occurred in the field. GUP was first introduced for Direct IO (O_DIRECT), allowing filesystem code to get the struct page behind a virtual address and to let storage hardware perform a direct copy to or from that page. This is a short-lived access pattern, and as such, the window for a concurrent writeback of GUP'd page was small enough that there were not (we think) any reported problems. Also, userspace was expected to understand and accept that Direct IO was not synchronized with memory-mapped access to that data, nor with any process address space changes such as munmap(), mremap(), etc. Over the years, more GUP uses have appeared (virtualization, device drivers, RDMA) that can keep the pages they get via GUP for a long period of time (seconds, minutes, hours, days, ...). This long-term pinning makes an underlying design problem more obvious. In fact, there are a number of key problems inherent to GUP: Interactions with file systems ============================== File systems expect to be able to write back data, both to reclaim pages, and for data integrity. Allowing other hardware (NICs, GPUs, etc) to gain write access to the file memory pages means that such hardware can dirty the pages, without the filesystem being aware. This can, in some cases (depending on filesystem, filesystem options, block device, block device options, and other variables), lead to data corruption, and also to kernel bugs of the form: kernel BUG at /build/linux-fQ94TU/linux-4.4.0/fs/ext4/inode.c:1899! backtrace: ext4_writepage __writepage write_cache_pages ext4_writepages do_writepages __writeback_single_inode writeback_sb_inodes __writeback_inodes_wb wb_writeback wb_workfn process_one_work worker_thread kthread ret_from_fork ...which is due to the file system asserting that there are still buffer heads attached: ({ \ BUG_ON(!PagePrivate(page)); \ ((struct buffer_head *)page_private(page)); \ }) Dave Chinner's description of this is very clear: "The fundamental issue is that ->page_mkwrite must be called on every write access to a clean file backed page, not just the first one. How long the GUP reference lasts is irrelevant, if the page is clean and you need to dirty it, you must call ->page_mkwrite before it is marked writeable and dirtied. Every. Time." This is just one symptom of the larger design problem: real filesystems that actually write to a backing device, do not actually support get_user_pages() being called on their pages, and letting hardware write directly to those pages--even though that pattern has been going on since about 2005 or so. Long term GUP ============= Long term GUP is an issue when FOLL_WRITE is specified to GUP (so, a writeable mapping is created), and the pages are file-backed. That can lead to filesystem corruption. What happens is that when a file-backed page is being written back, it is first mapped read-only in all of the CPU page tables; the file system then assumes that nobody can write to the page, and that the page content is therefore stable. Unfortunately, the GUP callers generally do not monitor changes to the CPU pages tables; they instead assume that the following pattern is safe (it's not): get_user_pages() Hardware can keep a reference to those pages for a very long time, and write to it at any time. Because "hardware" here means "devices that are not a CPU", this activity occurs without any interaction with the kernel's file system code. for each page set_page_dirty put_page() In fact, the GUP documentation even recommends that pattern. Anyway, the file system assumes that the page is stable (nothing is writing to the page), and that is a problem: stable page content is necessary for many filesystem actions during writeback, such as checksum, encryption, RAID striping, etc. Furthermore, filesystem features like COW (copy on write) or snapshot also rely on being able to use a new page for as memory for that memory range inside the file. Corruption during write back is clearly possible here. To solve that, one idea is to identify pages that have active GUP, so that we can use a bounce page to write stable data to the filesystem. The filesystem would work on the bounce page, while any of the active GUP might write to the original page. This would avoid the stable page violation problem, but note that it is only part of the overall solution, because other problems remain. Other filesystem features that need to replace the page with a new one can be inhibited for pages that are GUP-pinned. This will, however, alter and limit some of those filesystem features. The only fix for that would be to require GUP users to monitor and respond to CPU page table updates. Subsystems such as ODP and HMM do this, for example. This aspect of the problem is still under discussion. Direct IO ========= Direct IO can cause corruption, if userspace does Direct-IO that writes to a range of virtual addresses that are mmap'd to a file. The pages written to are file-backed pages that can be under write back, while the Direct IO is taking place. Here, Direct IO races with a write back: it calls GUP before page_mkclean() has replaced the CPU pte with a read-only entry. The race window is pretty small, which is probably why years have gone by before we noticed this problem: Direct IO is generally very quick, and tends to finish up before the filesystem gets around to do anything with the page contents. However, it's still a real problem. The solution is to never let GUP return pages that are under write back, but instead, force GUP to take a write fault on those pages. That way, GUP will properly synchronize with the active write back. This does not change the required GUP behavior, it just avoids that race. Details ======= Introduces put_user_page(), which simply calls put_page(). This provides a way to update all get_user_pages*() callers, so that they call put_user_page(), instead of put_page(). Also introduces put_user_pages(), and a few dirty/locked variations, as a replacement for release_pages(), and also as a replacement for open-coded loops that release multiple pages. These may be used for subsequent performance improvements, via batching of pages to be released. This is the first step of fixing a problem (also described in [1] and [2]) with interactions between get_user_pages ("gup") and filesystems. Problem description: let's start with a bug report. Below, is what happens sometimes, under memory pressure, when a driver pins some pages via gup, and then marks those pages dirty, and releases them. Note that the gup documentation actually recommends that pattern. The problem is that the filesystem may do a writeback while the pages were gup-pinned, and then the filesystem believes that the pages are clean. So, when the driver later marks the pages as dirty, that conflicts with the filesystem's page tracking and results in a BUG(), like this one that I experienced: kernel BUG at /build/linux-fQ94TU/linux-4.4.0/fs/ext4/inode.c:1899! backtrace: ext4_writepage __writepage write_cache_pages ext4_writepages do_writepages __writeback_single_inode writeback_sb_inodes __writeback_inodes_wb wb_writeback wb_workfn process_one_work worker_thread kthread ret_from_fork ...which is due to the file system asserting that there are still buffer heads attached: ({ \ BUG_ON(!PagePrivate(page)); \ ((struct buffer_head *)page_private(page)); \ }) Dave Chinner's description of this is very clear: "The fundamental issue is that ->page_mkwrite must be called on every write access to a clean file backed page, not just the first one.

gup: document and work around "COW can break either way" issue Doing a "get_user_pages()" on a copy-on-write page for reading can be ambiguous: the page can be COW'ed at any time afterwards, and the direction of a COW event isn't defined. Yes, whoever writes to it will generally do the COW, but if the thread that did the get_user_pages() unmapped the page before the write (and that could happen due to memory pressure in addition to any outright action), the writer could also just take over the old page instead. End result: the get_user_pages() call might result in a page pointer that is no longer associated with the original VM, and is associated with - and controlled by - another VM having taken it over instead. So when doing a get_user_pages() on a COW mapping, the only really safe thing to do would be to break the COW when getting the page, even when only getting it for reading. At the same time, some users simply don't even care. For example, the perf code wants to look up the page not because it cares about the page, but because the code simply wants to look up the physical address of the access for informational purposes, and doesn't really care about races when a page might be unmapped and remapped elsewhere. This adds logic to force a COW event by setting FOLL_WRITE on any copy-on-write mapping when FOLL_GET (or FOLL_PIN) is used to get a page pointer as a result. The current semantics end up being: - __get_user_pages_fast(): no change. If you don't ask for a write, you won't break COW. You'd better know what you're doing. - get_user_pages_fast(): the fast-case "look it up in the page tables without anything getting mmap_sem" now refuses to follow a read-only page, since it might need COW breaking. Which happens in the slow path - the fast path doesn't know if the memory might be COW or not. - get_user_pages() (including the slow-path fallback for gup_fast()): for a COW mapping, turn on FOLL_WRITE for FOLL_GET/FOLL_PIN, with very similar semantics to FOLL_FORCE. If it turns out that we want finer granularity (ie "only break COW when it might actually matter" - things like the zero page are special and don't need to be broken) we might need to push these semantics deeper into the lookup fault path. So if people care enough, it's possible that we might end up adding a new internal FOLL_BREAK_COW flag to go with the internal FOLL_COW flag we already have for tracking "I had a COW". Alternatively, if it turns out that different callers might want to explicitly control the forced COW break behavior, we might even want to make such a flag visible to the users of get_user_pages() instead of using the above default semantics. But for now, this is mostly commentary on the issue (this commit message being a lot bigger than the patch, and that patch in turn is almost all comments), with that minimal "enable COW breaking early" logic using the existing FOLL_WRITE behavior. [ It might be worth noting that we've always had this ambiguity, and it could arguably be seen as a user-space issue. You only get private COW mappings that could break either way in situations where user space is doing cooperative things (ie fork() before an execve() etc), but it _is_ surprising and very subtle, and fork() is supposed to give you independent address spaces. So let's treat this as a kernel issue and make the semantics of get_user_pages() easier to understand.

mm/gup/writeback: add callbacks for inaccessible pages With the introduction of protected KVM guests on s390 there is now a concept of inaccessible pages. These pages need to be made accessible before the host can access them. While cpu accesses will trigger a fault that can be resolved, I/O accesses will just fail. We need to add a callback into architecture code for places that will do I/O, namely when writeback is started or when a page reference is taken. This is not only to enable paging, file backing etc, it is also necessary to protect the host against a malicious user space. For example a bad QEMU could simply start direct I/O on such protected memory. We do not want userspace to be able to trigger I/O errors and thus the logic is "whenever somebody accesses that page (gup) or does I/O, make sure that this page can be accessed". When the guest tries to access that page we will wait in the page fault handler for writeback to have finished and for the page_ref to be the expected value. On s390x the function is not supposed to fail, so it is ok to use a WARN_ON on failure. If we ever need some more finegrained handling we can tackle this when we know the details.

mm/gup: introduce pin_user_pages*() and FOLL_PIN Introduce pin_user_pages*() variations of get_user_pages*() calls, and also pin_longterm_pages*() variations. For now, these are placeholder calls, until the various call sites are converted to use the correct get_user_pages*() or pin_user_pages*() API. These variants will eventually all set FOLL_PIN, which is also introduced, and thoroughly documented. pin_user_pages() pin_user_pages_remote() pin_user_pages_fast() All pages that are pinned via the above calls, must be unpinned via put_user_page(). The underlying rules are: * FOLL_PIN is a gup-internal flag, so the call sites should not directly set it. That behavior is enforced with assertions. * Call sites that want to indicate that they are going to do DirectIO ("DIO") or something with similar characteristics, should call a get_user_pages()-like wrapper call that sets FOLL_PIN. These wrappers will: * Start with "pin_user_pages" instead of "get_user_pages". That makes it easy to find and audit the call sites. * Set FOLL_PIN * For pages that are received via FOLL_PIN, those pages must be returned via put_user_page(). Thanks to Jan Kara and Vlastimil Babka for explaining the 4 cases in this documentation. (I've reworded it and expanded upon it.)

mm/gup: track FOLL_PIN pages Add tracking of pages that were pinned via FOLL_PIN. This tracking is implemented via overloading of page->_refcount: pins are added by adding GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS (1024) to the refcount. This provides a fuzzy indication of pinning, and it can have false positives (and that's OK). Please see the pre-existing Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst for details. As mentioned in pin_user_pages.rst, callers who effectively set FOLL_PIN (typically via pin_user_pages*()) are required to ultimately free such pages via unpin_user_page(). Please also note the limitation, discussed in pin_user_pages.rst under the "TODO: for 1GB and larger huge pages" section. (That limitation will be removed in a following patch.) The effect of a FOLL_PIN flag is similar to that of FOLL_GET, and may be thought of as "FOLL_GET for DIO and/or RDMA use". Pages that have been pinned via FOLL_PIN are identifiable via a new function call: bool page_maybe_dma_pinned(struct page *page); What to do in response to encountering such a page, is left to later patchsets.

mm: introduce VM_LOCKONFAULT The cost of faulting in all memory to be locked can be very high when working with large mappings. If only portions of the mapping will be used this can incur a high penalty for locking. For the example of a large file, this is the usage pattern for a large statical language model (probably applies to other statical or graphical models as well). For the security example, any application transacting in data that cannot be swapped out (credit card data, medical records, etc). This patch introduces the ability to request that pages are not pre-faulted, but are placed on the unevictable LRU when they are finally faulted in. The VM_LOCKONFAULT flag will be used together with VM_LOCKED and has no effect when set without VM_LOCKED. Setting the VM_LOCKONFAULT flag for a VMA will cause pages faulted into that VMA to be added to the unevictable LRU when they are faulted or if they are already present, but will not cause any missing pages to be faulted in. Exposing this new lock state means that we cannot overload the meaning of the FOLL_POPULATE flag any longer. Prior to this patch it was used to mean that the VMA for a fault was locked. This means we need the new FOLL_MLOCK flag to communicate the locked state of a VMA. FOLL_POPULATE will now only control if the VMA should be populated and in the case of VM_LOCKONFAULT, it will not be set. Signed-off-by: Eric B Munson <emunson@akamai.com> Acked-by: Kirill A.

thp: allow mlocked THP again Before THP refcounting rework, THP was not allowed to cross VMA boundary. So, if we have THP and we split it, PG_mlocked can be safely transferred to small pages. With new THP refcounting and naive approach to mlocking we can end up with this scenario: 1. we have a mlocked THP, which belong to one VM_LOCKED VMA. 2. the process does munlock() on the *part* of the THP: - the VMA is split into two, one of them VM_LOCKED; - huge PMD split into PTE table; - THP is still mlocked; 3. split_huge_page(): - it transfers PG_mlocked to *all* small pages regrardless if it blong to any VM_LOCKED VMA. We probably could munlock() all small pages on split_huge_page(), but I think we have accounting issue already on step two. Instead of forbidding mlocked pages altogether, we just avoid mlocking PTE-mapped THPs and munlock THPs on split_huge_pmd(). This means PTE-mapped THPs will be on normal lru lists and will be split under memory pressure by vmscan. After the split vmscan will detect unevictable small pages and mlock them. With this approach we shouldn't hit situation like described above. Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

mm/hugetlb: take page table lock in follow_huge_pmd() We have a race condition between move_pages() and freeing hugepages, where move_pages() calls follow_page(FOLL_GET) for hugepages internally and tries to get its refcount without preventing concurrent freeing. This race crashes the kernel, so this patch fixes it by moving FOLL_GET code for hugepages into follow_huge_pmd() with taking the page table lock. This patch intentionally removes page==NULL check after pte_page. This is justified because pte_page() never returns NULL for any architectures or configurations. This patch changes the behavior of follow_huge_pmd() for tail pages and then tail pages can be pinned/returned. So the caller must be changed to properly handle the returned tail pages. We could have a choice to add the similar locking to follow_huge_(addr|pud) for consistency, but it's not necessary because currently these functions don't support FOLL_GET flag, so let's leave it for future development.

mm/gup: track FOLL_PIN pages Add tracking of pages that were pinned via FOLL_PIN. This tracking is implemented via overloading of page->_refcount: pins are added by adding GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS (1024) to the refcount. This provides a fuzzy indication of pinning, and it can have false positives (and that's OK). Please see the pre-existing Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst for details. As mentioned in pin_user_pages.rst, callers who effectively set FOLL_PIN (typically via pin_user_pages*()) are required to ultimately free such pages via unpin_user_page(). Please also note the limitation, discussed in pin_user_pages.rst under the "TODO: for 1GB and larger huge pages" section. (That limitation will be removed in a following patch.) The effect of a FOLL_PIN flag is similar to that of FOLL_GET, and may be thought of as "FOLL_GET for DIO and/or RDMA use". Pages that have been pinned via FOLL_PIN are identifiable via a new function call: bool page_maybe_dma_pinned(struct page *page); What to do in response to encountering such a page, is left to later patchsets. There is discussion about this in [1], [2], [3], and [4]. This also changes a BUG_ON(), to a WARN_ON(), in follow_page_mask().

mm: thp: check pmd migration entry in common path When THP migration is being used, memory management code needs to handle pmd migration entries properly. This patch uses !pmd_present() or is_swap_pmd() (depending on whether pmd_none() needs separate code or not) to check pmd migration entries at the places where a pmd entry is present. Since pmd-related code uses split_huge_page(), split_huge_pmd(), pmd_trans_huge(), pmd_trans_unstable(), or pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad(), this patch: 1. adds pmd migration entry split code in split_huge_pmd(), 2. takes care of pmd migration entries whenever pmd_trans_huge() is present, 3. makes pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() pmd migration entry aware. Since split_huge_page() uses split_huge_pmd() and pmd_trans_unstable() is equivalent to pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad(), we do not change them. Until this commit, a pmd entry should be: 1. pointing to a pte page, 2. is_swap_pmd(), 3. pmd_trans_huge(), 4. pmd_devmap(), or 5. pmd_none().

mm/gup: rename "nonblocking" to "locked" where proper Patch series "mm: Page fault enhancements", v6. This series contains cleanups and enhancements to current page fault logic. The whole idea comes from the discussion between Andrea and Linus on the bug reported by syzbot here: https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/11/2/833 Basically it does two things: (a) Allows the page fault logic to be more interactive on not only SIGKILL, but also the rest of userspace signals, and, (b) Allows the page fault retry (VM_FAULT_RETRY) to happen for more than once. For (a): with the changes we should be able to react faster when page faults are working in parallel with userspace signals like SIGSTOP and SIGCONT (and more), and with that we can remove the buggy part in userfaultfd and benefit the whole page fault mechanism on faster signal processing to reach the userspace. For (b), we should be able to allow the page fault handler to loop for even more than twice. Some context: for now since we have FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY we can allow to retry the page fault once with the same interrupt context, however never more than twice. This can be not only a potential cleanup to remove this assumption since AFAIU the code itself doesn't really have this twice-only limitation (though that should be a protective approach in the past), at the same time it'll greatly simplify future works like userfaultfd write-protect where it's possible to retry for more than twice (please have a look at [1] below for a possible user that might require the page fault to be handled for a third time; if we can remove the retry limitation we can simply drop that patch and those complexity). This patch (of 16): There's plenty of places around __get_user_pages() that has a parameter "nonblocking" which does not really mean that "it won't block" (because it can really block) but instead it shows whether the mmap_sem is released by up_read() during the page fault handling mostly when VM_FAULT_RETRY is returned. We have the correct naming in e.g. get_user_pages_locked() or get_user_pages_remote() as "locked", however there're still many places that are using the "nonblocking" as name.

mm: introduce VM_LOCKONFAULT The cost of faulting in all memory to be locked can be very high when working with large mappings. If only portions of the mapping will be used this can incur a high penalty for locking. For the example of a large file, this is the usage pattern for a large statical language model (probably applies to other statical or graphical models as well). For the security example, any application transacting in data that cannot be swapped out (credit card data, medical records, etc). This patch introduces the ability to request that pages are not pre-faulted, but are placed on the unevictable LRU when they are finally faulted in. The VM_LOCKONFAULT flag will be used together with VM_LOCKED and has no effect when set without VM_LOCKED. Setting the VM_LOCKONFAULT flag for a VMA will cause pages faulted into that VMA to be added to the unevictable LRU when they are faulted or if they are already present, but will not cause any missing pages to be faulted in. Exposing this new lock state means that we cannot overload the meaning of the FOLL_POPULATE flag any longer. Prior to this patch it was used to mean that the VMA for a fault was locked. This means we need the new FOLL_MLOCK flag to communicate the locked state of a VMA. FOLL_POPULATE will now only control if the VMA should be populated and in the case of VM_LOCKONFAULT, it will not be set. Signed-off-by: Eric B Munson <emunson@akamai.com> Acked-by: Kirill A.

mm/core: Do not enforce PKEY permissions on remote mm access We try to enforce protection keys in software the same way that we do in hardware. (See long example below). But, we only want to do this when accessing our *own* process's memory. If GDB set PKRU[6].AD=1 (disable access to PKEY 6), then tried to PTRACE_POKE a target process which just happened to have some mprotect_pkey(pkey=6) memory, we do *not* want to deny the debugger access to that memory. PKRU is fundamentally a thread-local structure and we do not want to enforce it on access to _another_ thread's data. This gets especially tricky when we have workqueues or other delayed-work mechanisms that might run in a random process's context. We can check that we only enforce pkeys when operating on our *own* mm, but delayed work gets performed when a random user context is active. We might end up with a situation where a delayed-work gup fails when running randomly under its "own" task but succeeds when running under another process. We want to avoid that. To avoid that, we use the new GUP flag: FOLL_REMOTE and add a fault flag: FAULT_FLAG_REMOTE. They indicate that we are walking an mm which is not guranteed to be the same as current->mm and should not be subject to protection key enforcement. Thanks to Jerome Glisse for pointing out this scenario.

mm/gup: allow to react to fatal signals The existing gup code does not react to the fatal signals in many code paths. For example, in one retry path of gup we're still using down_read() rather than down_read_killable(). Also, when doing page faults we don't pass in FAULT_FLAG_KILLABLE as well, which means that within the faulting process we'll wait in non-killable way as well. These were spotted by Linus during the code review of some other patches. Let's allow the gup code to react to fatal signals to improve the responsiveness of threads when during gup and being killed.

(check_user_page_hwpoison()) When huge pages are involved, this doesn't work so well. get_user_pages() calls follow_hugetlb_page(), which stops early if it receives VM_FAULT_HWPOISON from hugetlb_fault(), eventually returning -EFAULT to the caller. The step to map this to -EHWPOISON based on the FOLL_ flags is missing. The hwpoison special case is skipped, and -EFAULT is returned to user-space, causing Qemu or kvmtool to exit. Instead, move this VM_FAULT_ to errno mapping code into a header file and use it from faultin_page() and follow_hugetlb_page(). With this, KVM works as expected. This isn't a problem for arm64 today as we haven't enabled MEMORY_FAILURE, but I can't see any reason this doesn't happen on x86 too, so I think this should be a fix. This doesn't apply earlier than stable's v4.11.1 due to all sorts of cleanup. [james.morse@arm.com: add vm_fault_to_errno() call to faultin_page()] suggested.

mm/gup: rename "nonblocking" to "locked" where proper Patch series "mm: Page fault enhancements", v6. This series contains cleanups and enhancements to current page fault logic. The whole idea comes from the discussion between Andrea and Linus on the bug reported by syzbot here: https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/11/2/833 Basically it does two things: (a) Allows the page fault logic to be more interactive on not only SIGKILL, but also the rest of userspace signals, and, (b) Allows the page fault retry (VM_FAULT_RETRY) to happen for more than once. For (a): with the changes we should be able to react faster when page faults are working in parallel with userspace signals like SIGSTOP and SIGCONT (and more), and with that we can remove the buggy part in userfaultfd and benefit the whole page fault mechanism on faster signal processing to reach the userspace. For (b), we should be able to allow the page fault handler to loop for even more than twice. Some context: for now since we have FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY we can allow to retry the page fault once with the same interrupt context, however never more than twice. This can be not only a potential cleanup to remove this assumption since AFAIU the code itself doesn't really have this twice-only limitation (though that should be a protective approach in the past), at the same time it'll greatly simplify future works like userfaultfd write-protect where it's possible to retry for more than twice (please have a look at [1] below for a possible user that might require the page fault to be handled for a third time; if we can remove the retry limitation we can simply drop that patch and those complexity). This patch (of 16): There's plenty of places around __get_user_pages() that has a parameter "nonblocking" which does not really mean that "it won't block" (because it can really block) but instead it shows whether the mmap_sem is released by up_read() during the page fault handling mostly when VM_FAULT_RETRY is returned. We have the correct naming in e.g. get_user_pages_locked() or get_user_pages_remote() as "locked", however there're still many places that are using the "nonblocking" as name.

mm/core: Do not enforce PKEY permissions on remote mm access We try to enforce protection keys in software the same way that we do in hardware. (See long example below). But, we only want to do this when accessing our *own* process's memory. If GDB set PKRU[6].AD=1 (disable access to PKEY 6), then tried to PTRACE_POKE a target process which just happened to have some mprotect_pkey(pkey=6) memory, we do *not* want to deny the debugger access to that memory. PKRU is fundamentally a thread-local structure and we do not want to enforce it on access to _another_ thread's data. This gets especially tricky when we have workqueues or other delayed-work mechanisms that might run in a random process's context. We can check that we only enforce pkeys when operating on our *own* mm, but delayed work gets performed when a random user context is active. We might end up with a situation where a delayed-work gup fails when running randomly under its "own" task but succeeds when running under another process. We want to avoid that. To avoid that, we use the new GUP flag: FOLL_REMOTE and add a fault flag: FAULT_FLAG_REMOTE. They indicate that we are walking an mm which is not guranteed to be the same as current->mm and should not be subject to protection key enforcement.

mm/core, x86/mm/pkeys: Differentiate instruction fetches As discussed earlier, we attempt to enforce protection keys in software. However, the code checks all faults to ensure that they are not violating protection key permissions. It was assumed that all faults are either write faults where we check PKRU[key].WD (write disable) or read faults where we check the AD (access disable) bit. But, there is a third category of faults for protection keys: instruction faults. Instruction faults never run afoul of protection keys because they do not affect instruction fetches. So, plumb the PF_INSTR bit down in to the arch_vma_access_permitted() function where we do the protection key checks. We also add a new FAULT_FLAG_INSTRUCTION. This is because handle_mm_fault() is not passed the architecture-specific error_code where we keep PF_INSTR, so we need to encode the instruction fetch information in to the arch-generic fault flags.

mm/gup, x86/mm/pkeys: Check VMAs and PTEs for protection keys Today, for normal faults and page table walks, we check the VMA and/or PTE to ensure that it is compatible with the action. For instance, if we get a write fault on a non-writeable VMA, we SIGSEGV. We try to do the same thing for protection keys. Basically, we try to make sure that if a user does this: mprotect(ptr, size, PROT_NONE); *ptr = foo; they see the same effects with protection keys when they do this: mprotect(ptr, size, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE); set_pkey(ptr, size, 4); wrpkru(0xffffff3f); // access disable pkey 4 *ptr = foo; The state to do that checking is in the VMA, but we also sometimes have to do it on the page tables only, like when doing a get_user_pages_fast() where we have no VMA. We add two functions and expose them to generic code: arch_pte_access_permitted(pte_flags, write) arch_vma_access_permitted(vma, write) These are, of course, backed up in x86 arch code with checks against the PTE or VMA's protection key. But, there are also cases where we do not want to respect protection keys. When we ptrace(), for instance, we do not want to apply the tracer's PKRU permissions to the PTEs from the process being traced.

* -- If nr_pages is 0, returns 0.
* -- If nr_pages is >0, but no pages were pinned, returns -errno.
* -- If nr_pages is >0, and some pages were pinned, returns the number of

*
* The caller is responsible for releasing returned @pages, via put_page().
*
* @vmas are valid only as long as mmap_sem is held.

* Must be called with mmap_sem held. It may be released. See below.
*
* __get_user_pages walks a process's page tables and takes a reference to
* each struct page that each user address corresponds to at a given
* instant. That is, it takes the page that would be accessed if a user
* thread accesses the given user virtual address at that instant.
*
* This does not guarantee that the page exists in the user mappings when
* __get_user_pages returns, and there may even be a completely different
* page there in some cases (eg. if mmapped pagecache has been invalidated
* and subsequently re faulted). However it does guarantee that the page
* won't be freed completely. And mostly callers simply care that the page
* contains data that was valid *at some point in time*. Typically, an IO
* or similar operation cannot guarantee anything stronger anyway because
* locks can't be held over the syscall boundary.
*
* If @gup_flags & FOLL_WRITE == 0, the page must not be written to. If
* the page is written to, set_page_dirty (or set_page_dirty_lock, as
* appropriate) must be called after the page is finished with, and

mm/gup: rename "nonblocking" to "locked" where proper Patch series "mm: Page fault enhancements", v6. This series contains cleanups and enhancements to current page fault logic. The whole idea comes from the discussion between Andrea and Linus on the bug reported by syzbot here: https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/11/2/833 Basically it does two things: (a) Allows the page fault logic to be more interactive on not only SIGKILL, but also the rest of userspace signals, and, (b) Allows the page fault retry (VM_FAULT_RETRY) to happen for more than once. For (a): with the changes we should be able to react faster when page faults are working in parallel with userspace signals like SIGSTOP and SIGCONT (and more), and with that we can remove the buggy part in userfaultfd and benefit the whole page fault mechanism on faster signal processing to reach the userspace. For (b), we should be able to allow the page fault handler to loop for even more than twice. Some context: for now since we have FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY we can allow to retry the page fault once with the same interrupt context, however never more than twice. This can be not only a potential cleanup to remove this assumption since AFAIU the code itself doesn't really have this twice-only limitation (though that should be a protective approach in the past), at the same time it'll greatly simplify future works like userfaultfd write-protect where it's possible to retry for more than twice (please have a look at [1] below for a possible user that might require the page fault to be handled for a third time; if we can remove the retry limitation we can simply drop that patch and those complexity). This patch (of 16): There's plenty of places around __get_user_pages() that has a parameter "nonblocking" which does not really mean that "it won't block" (because it can really block) but instead it shows whether the mmap_sem is released by up_read() during the page fault handling mostly when VM_FAULT_RETRY is returned. We have the correct naming in e.g. get_user_pages_locked() or get_user_pages_remote() as "locked", however there're still many places that are using the "nonblocking" as name. Renaming the places to "locked" where proper to better suite the functionality of the variable. While at it, fixing up some of the comments accordingly.

mm/gup: introduce pin_user_pages*() and FOLL_PIN Introduce pin_user_pages*() variations of get_user_pages*() calls, and also pin_longterm_pages*() variations. For now, these are placeholder calls, until the various call sites are converted to use the correct get_user_pages*() or pin_user_pages*() API. These variants will eventually all set FOLL_PIN, which is also introduced, and thoroughly documented. pin_user_pages() pin_user_pages_remote() pin_user_pages_fast() All pages that are pinned via the above calls, must be unpinned via put_user_page(). The underlying rules are: * FOLL_PIN is a gup-internal flag, so the call sites should not directly set it. That behavior is enforced with assertions. * Call sites that want to indicate that they are going to do DirectIO ("DIO") or something with similar characteristics, should call a get_user_pages()-like wrapper call that sets FOLL_PIN. These wrappers will: * Start with "pin_user_pages" instead of "get_user_pages". That makes it easy to find and audit the call sites. * Set FOLL_PIN * For pages that are received via FOLL_PIN, those pages must be returned via put_user_page(). Thanks to Jan Kara and Vlastimil Babka for explaining the 4 cases in this documentation. (I've reworded it and expanded upon it.)

mm/gup: finish consolidating error handling Commit df06b37ffe5a ("mm/gup: cache dev_pagemap while pinning pages") attempted to operate on each page that get_user_pages had retrieved. In order to do that, it created a common exit point from the routine. However, one case was missed, which this patch fixes up. Also, there was still an unnecessary shadow declaration (with a different type) of the "ret" variable, which this patch removes. Keith's description of the situation is: This also fixes a potentially leaked dev_pagemap reference count if a failure occurs when an iteration crosses a vma boundary. I don't think it's normal to have different vma's on a users mapped zone device memory, but good to fix anyway. I actually thought that this code: /* first iteration or cross vma bound */ if (!vma || start >= vma->vm_end) { vma = find_extend_vma(mm, start); if (!vma && in_gate_area(mm, start)) { ret = get_gate_page(mm, start & PAGE_MASK, gup_flags, &vma, pages ? &pages[i] : NULL); if (ret) goto out; dealt with the "you're trying to pin the gate page, as part of this call", rather than the generic case of crossing a vma boundary. (I think there's a fine point that I must be overlooking.) But it's still a valid case, either way.

gup: document and work around "COW can break either way" issue Doing a "get_user_pages()" on a copy-on-write page for reading can be ambiguous: the page can be COW'ed at any time afterwards, and the direction of a COW event isn't defined. Yes, whoever writes to it will generally do the COW, but if the thread that did the get_user_pages() unmapped the page before the write (and that could happen due to memory pressure in addition to any outright action), the writer could also just take over the old page instead. End result: the get_user_pages() call might result in a page pointer that is no longer associated with the original VM, and is associated with - and controlled by - another VM having taken it over instead. So when doing a get_user_pages() on a COW mapping, the only really safe thing to do would be to break the COW when getting the page, even when only getting it for reading. At the same time, some users simply don't even care. For example, the perf code wants to look up the page not because it cares about the page, but because the code simply wants to look up the physical address of the access for informational purposes, and doesn't really care about races when a page might be unmapped and remapped elsewhere. This adds logic to force a COW event by setting FOLL_WRITE on any copy-on-write mapping when FOLL_GET (or FOLL_PIN) is used to get a page pointer as a result. The current semantics end up being: - __get_user_pages_fast(): no change. If you don't ask for a write, you won't break COW. You'd better know what you're doing. - get_user_pages_fast(): the fast-case "look it up in the page tables without anything getting mmap_sem" now refuses to follow a read-only page, since it might need COW breaking. Which happens in the slow path - the fast path doesn't know if the memory might be COW or not. - get_user_pages() (including the slow-path fallback for gup_fast()): for a COW mapping, turn on FOLL_WRITE for FOLL_GET/FOLL_PIN, with very similar semantics to FOLL_FORCE. If it turns out that we want finer granularity (ie "only break COW when it might actually matter" - things like the zero page are special and don't need to be broken) we might need to push these semantics deeper into the lookup fault path. So if people care enough, it's possible that we might end up adding a new internal FOLL_BREAK_COW flag to go with the internal FOLL_COW flag we already have for tracking "I had a COW". Alternatively, if it turns out that different callers might want to explicitly control the forced COW break behavior, we might even want to make such a flag visible to the users of get_user_pages() instead of using the above default semantics. But for now, this is mostly commentary on the issue (this commit message being a lot bigger than the patch, and that patch in turn is almost all comments), with that minimal "enable COW breaking early" logic using the existing FOLL_WRITE behavior. [ It might be worth noting that we've always had this ambiguity, and it could arguably be seen as a user-space issue. You only get private COW mappings that could break either way in situations where user space is doing cooperative things (ie fork() before an execve() etc), but it _is_ surprising and very subtle, and fork() is supposed to give you independent address spaces. So let's treat this as a kernel issue and make the semantics of get_user_pages() easier to understand.

mm/gup: rename "nonblocking" to "locked" where proper Patch series "mm: Page fault enhancements", v6. This series contains cleanups and enhancements to current page fault logic. The whole idea comes from the discussion between Andrea and Linus on the bug reported by syzbot here: https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/11/2/833 Basically it does two things: (a) Allows the page fault logic to be more interactive on not only SIGKILL, but also the rest of userspace signals, and, (b) Allows the page fault retry (VM_FAULT_RETRY) to happen for more than once. For (a): with the changes we should be able to react faster when page faults are working in parallel with userspace signals like SIGSTOP and SIGCONT (and more), and with that we can remove the buggy part in userfaultfd and benefit the whole page fault mechanism on faster signal processing to reach the userspace. For (b), we should be able to allow the page fault handler to loop for even more than twice. Some context: for now since we have FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY we can allow to retry the page fault once with the same interrupt context, however never more than twice. This can be not only a potential cleanup to remove this assumption since AFAIU the code itself doesn't really have this twice-only limitation (though that should be a protective approach in the past), at the same time it'll greatly simplify future works like userfaultfd write-protect where it's possible to retry for more than twice (please have a look at [1] below for a possible user that might require the page fault to be handled for a third time; if we can remove the retry limitation we can simply drop that patch and those complexity). This patch (of 16): There's plenty of places around __get_user_pages() that has a parameter "nonblocking" which does not really mean that "it won't block" (because it can really block) but instead it shows whether the mmap_sem is released by up_read() during the page fault handling mostly when VM_FAULT_RETRY is returned. We have the correct naming in e.g. get_user_pages_locked() or get_user_pages_remote() as "locked", however there're still many places that are using the "nonblocking" as name. Renaming the places to "locked" where proper to better suite the functionality of the variable. While at it, fixing up some of the comments accordingly.

mm/core: Do not enforce PKEY permissions on remote mm access We try to enforce protection keys in software the same way that we do in hardware. (See long example below). But, we only want to do this when accessing our *own* process's memory. If GDB set PKRU[6].AD=1 (disable access to PKEY 6), then tried to PTRACE_POKE a target process which just happened to have some mprotect_pkey(pkey=6) memory, we do *not* want to deny the debugger access to that memory. PKRU is fundamentally a thread-local structure and we do not want to enforce it on access to _another_ thread's data. This gets especially tricky when we have workqueues or other delayed-work mechanisms that might run in a random process's context. We can check that we only enforce pkeys when operating on our *own* mm, but delayed work gets performed when a random user context is active. We might end up with a situation where a delayed-work gup fails when running randomly under its "own" task but succeeds when running under another process. We want to avoid that. To avoid that, we use the new GUP flag: FOLL_REMOTE and add a fault flag: FAULT_FLAG_REMOTE. They indicate that we are walking an mm which is not guranteed to be the same as current->mm and should not be subject to protection key enforcement.

* mechanism other than read/write that can deny access.
mm/core, x86/mm/pkeys: Differentiate instruction fetches As discussed earlier, we attempt to enforce protection keys in software. However, the code checks all faults to ensure that they are not violating protection key permissions. It was assumed that all faults are either write faults where we check PKRU[key].WD (write disable) or read faults where we check the AD (access disable) bit. But, there is a third category of faults for protection keys: instruction faults. Instruction faults never run afoul of protection keys because they do not affect instruction fetches. So, plumb the PF_INSTR bit down in to the arch_vma_access_permitted() function where we do the protection key checks. We also add a new FAULT_FLAG_INSTRUCTION. This is because handle_mm_fault() is not passed the architecture-specific error_code where we keep PF_INSTR, so we need to encode the instruction fetch information in to the arch-generic fault flags.

mm/core, x86/mm/pkeys: Differentiate instruction fetches As discussed earlier, we attempt to enforce protection keys in software. However, the code checks all faults to ensure that they are not violating protection key permissions. It was assumed that all faults are either write faults where we check PKRU[key].WD (write disable) or read faults where we check the AD (access disable) bit. But, there is a third category of faults for protection keys: instruction faults. Instruction faults never run afoul of protection keys because they do not affect instruction fetches. So, plumb the PF_INSTR bit down in to the arch_vma_access_permitted() function where we do the protection key checks. We also add a new FAULT_FLAG_INSTRUCTION. This is because handle_mm_fault() is not passed the architecture-specific error_code where we keep PF_INSTR, so we need to encode the instruction fetch information in to the arch-generic fault flags.

mm/gup, x86/mm/pkeys: Check VMAs and PTEs for protection keys Today, for normal faults and page table walks, we check the VMA and/or PTE to ensure that it is compatible with the action. For instance, if we get a write fault on a non-writeable VMA, we SIGSEGV. We try to do the same thing for protection keys. Basically, we try to make sure that if a user does this: mprotect(ptr, size, PROT_NONE); *ptr = foo; they see the same effects with protection keys when they do this: mprotect(ptr, size, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE); set_pkey(ptr, size, 4); wrpkru(0xffffff3f); // access disable pkey 4 *ptr = foo; The state to do that checking is in the VMA, but we also sometimes have to do it on the page tables only, like when doing a get_user_pages_fast() where we have no VMA. We add two functions and expose them to generic code: arch_pte_access_permitted(pte_flags, write) arch_vma_access_permitted(vma, write) These are, of course, backed up in x86 arch code with checks against the PTE or VMA's protection key. But, there are also cases where we do not want to respect protection keys. When we ptrace(), for instance, we do not want to apply the tracer's PKRU permissions to the PTEs from the process being traced.

mm/gup: allow to react to fatal signals The existing gup code does not react to the fatal signals in many code paths. For example, in one retry path of gup we're still using down_read() rather than down_read_killable(). Also, when doing page faults we don't pass in FAULT_FLAG_KILLABLE as well, which means that within the faulting process we'll wait in non-killable way as well. These were spotted by Linus during the code review of some other patches. Let's allow the gup code to react to fatal signals to improve the responsiveness of threads when during gup and being killed.

mm/hugetlb: report -EHWPOISON not -EFAULT when FOLL_HWPOISON is specified KVM uses get_user_pages() to resolve its stage2 faults. KVM sets the FOLL_HWPOISON flag causing faultin_page() to return -EHWPOISON when it finds a VM_FAULT_HWPOISON. KVM handles these hwpoison pages as a special case. (check_user_page_hwpoison()) When huge pages are involved, this doesn't work so well. get_user_pages() calls follow_hugetlb_page(), which stops early if it receives VM_FAULT_HWPOISON from hugetlb_fault(), eventually returning -EFAULT to the caller. The step to map this to -EHWPOISON based on the FOLL_ flags is missing. The hwpoison special case is skipped, and -EFAULT is returned to user-space, causing Qemu or kvmtool to exit. Instead, move this VM_FAULT_ to errno mapping code into a header file and use it from faultin_page() and follow_hugetlb_page(). With this, KVM works as expected. This isn't a problem for arm64 today as we haven't enabled MEMORY_FAILURE, but I can't see any reason this doesn't happen on x86 too, so I think this should be a fix. This doesn't apply earlier than stable's v4.11.1 due to all sorts of cleanup. [james.morse@arm.com: add vm_fault_to_errno() call to faultin_page()] suggested.

mm: bring in additional flag for fixup_user_fault to signal unlock During Jason's work with postcopy migration support for s390 a problem regarding gmap faults was discovered. The gmap code will call fixup_user_fault which will end up always in handle_mm_fault. Till now we never cared about retries, but as the userfaultfd code kind of relies on it. this needs some fix. This patchset does not take care of the futex code. I will now look closer at this. This patch (of 2): With the introduction of userfaultfd, kvm on s390 needs fixup_user_fault to pass in FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY and give feedback if during the faulting we ever unlocked mmap_sem. This patch brings in the logic to handle retries as well as it cleans up the current documentation. fixup_user_fault was not having the same semantics as filemap_fault. It never indicated if a retry happened and so a caller wasn't able to handle that case. So we now changed the behaviour to always retry a locked mmap_sem.

mm: gup: add get_user_pages_locked and get_user_pages_unlocked FAULT_FOLL_ALLOW_RETRY allows the page fault to drop the mmap_sem for reading to reduce the mmap_sem contention (for writing), like while waiting for I/O completion. The problem is that right now practically no get_user_pages call uses FAULT_FOLL_ALLOW_RETRY, so we're not leveraging that nifty feature. Andres fixed it for the KVM page fault. However get_user_pages_fast remains uncovered, and 99% of other get_user_pages aren't using it either (the only exception being FOLL_NOWAIT in KVM which is really nonblocking and in fact it doesn't even release the mmap_sem). So this patchsets extends the optimization Andres did in the KVM page fault to the whole kernel. It makes most important places (including gup_fast) to use FAULT_FOLL_ALLOW_RETRY to reduce the mmap_sem hold times during I/O. The only few places that remains uncovered are drivers like v4l and other exceptions that tends to work on their own memory and they're not working on random user memory (for example like O_DIRECT that uses gup_fast and is fully covered by this patch). A follow up patch should probably also add a printk_once warning to get_user_pages that should go obsolete and be phased out eventually. The "vmas" parameter of get_user_pages makes it fundamentally incompatible with FAULT_FOLL_ALLOW_RETRY (vmas array becomes meaningless the moment the mmap_sem is released). While this is just an optimization, this becomes an absolute requirement for the userfaultfd feature http://lwn.net/Articles/615086/ . The userfaultfd allows to block the page fault, and in order to do so I need to drop the mmap_sem first. So this patch also ensures that all memory where userfaultfd could be registered by KVM, the very first fault (no matter if it is a regular page fault, or a get_user_pages) always has FAULT_FOLL_ALLOW_RETRY set. Then the userfaultfd blocks and it is waken only when the pagetable is already mapped. The second fault attempt after the wakeup doesn't need FAULT_FOLL_ALLOW_RETRY, so it's ok to retry without it. This patch (of 5): We can leverage the VM_FAULT_RETRY functionality in the page fault paths better by using either get_user_pages_locked or get_user_pages_unlocked. The former allows conversion of get_user_pages invocations that will have to pass a "&locked" parameter to know if the mmap_sem was dropped during the call. Example from: down_read(&mm->mmap_sem); do_something() get_user_pages(tsk, mm, ..., pages, NULL); up_read(&mm->mmap_sem); to: int locked = 1; down_read(&mm->mmap_sem); do_something() get_user_pages_locked(tsk, mm, ..., pages, &locked); if (locked) up_read(&mm->mmap_sem); The latter is suitable only as a drop in replacement of the form: down_read(&mm->mmap_sem); get_user_pages(tsk, mm, ..., pages, NULL); up_read(&mm->mmap_sem); into: get_user_pages_unlocked(tsk, mm, ..., pages); Where tsk, mm, the intermediate "..." paramters and "pages" can be any value as before. Just the last parameter of get_user_pages (vmas) must be NULL for get_user_pages_locked|unlocked to be usable (the latter original form wouldn't have been safe anyway if vmas wasn't null, for the former we just make it explicit by dropping the parameter).

mm/gup: introduce pin_user_pages*() and FOLL_PIN Introduce pin_user_pages*() variations of get_user_pages*() calls, and also pin_longterm_pages*() variations. For now, these are placeholder calls, until the various call sites are converted to use the correct get_user_pages*() or pin_user_pages*() API. These variants will eventually all set FOLL_PIN, which is also introduced, and thoroughly documented. pin_user_pages() pin_user_pages_remote() pin_user_pages_fast() All pages that are pinned via the above calls, must be unpinned via put_user_page(). The underlying rules are: * FOLL_PIN is a gup-internal flag, so the call sites should not directly set it. That behavior is enforced with assertions. * Call sites that want to indicate that they are going to do DirectIO ("DIO") or something with similar characteristics, should call a get_user_pages()-like wrapper call that sets FOLL_PIN. These wrappers will: * Start with "pin_user_pages" instead of "get_user_pages". That makes it easy to find and audit the call sites. * Set FOLL_PIN * For pages that are received via FOLL_PIN, those pages must be returned via put_user_page(). Thanks to Jan Kara and Vlastimil Babka for explaining the 4 cases in this documentation. (I've reworded it and expanded upon it.)

mm/gup: continue VM_FAULT_RETRY processing even for pre-faults When get_user_pages*() is called with pages = NULL, the processing of VM_FAULT_RETRY terminates early without actually retrying to fault-in all the pages. If the pages in the requested range belong to a VMA that has userfaultfd registered, handle_userfault() returns VM_FAULT_RETRY *after* user space has populated the page, but for the gup pre-fault case there's no actual retry and the caller will get no pages although they are present. This issue was uncovered when running post-copy memory restore in CRIU after d9c9ce34ed5c ("x86/fpu: Fault-in user stack if copy_fpstate_to_sigframe() fails"). After this change, the copying of FPU state to the sigframe switched from copy_to_user() variants which caused a real page fault to get_user_pages() with pages parameter set to NULL. In post-copy mode of CRIU, the destination memory is managed with userfaultfd and lack of the retry for pre-fault case in get_user_pages() causes a crash of the restored process. Making the pre-fault behavior of get_user_pages() the same as the "normal" one fixes the issue.

mm: gup: add get_user_pages_locked and get_user_pages_unlocked FAULT_FOLL_ALLOW_RETRY allows the page fault to drop the mmap_sem for reading to reduce the mmap_sem contention (for writing), like while waiting for I/O completion. The problem is that right now practically no get_user_pages call uses FAULT_FOLL_ALLOW_RETRY, so we're not leveraging that nifty feature. Andres fixed it for the KVM page fault. However get_user_pages_fast remains uncovered, and 99% of other get_user_pages aren't using it either (the only exception being FOLL_NOWAIT in KVM which is really nonblocking and in fact it doesn't even release the mmap_sem). So this patchsets extends the optimization Andres did in the KVM page fault to the whole kernel. It makes most important places (including gup_fast) to use FAULT_FOLL_ALLOW_RETRY to reduce the mmap_sem hold times during I/O. The only few places that remains uncovered are drivers like v4l and other exceptions that tends to work on their own memory and they're not working on random user memory (for example like O_DIRECT that uses gup_fast and is fully covered by this patch). A follow up patch should probably also add a printk_once warning to get_user_pages that should go obsolete and be phased out eventually. The "vmas" parameter of get_user_pages makes it fundamentally incompatible with FAULT_FOLL_ALLOW_RETRY (vmas array becomes meaningless the moment the mmap_sem is released). While this is just an optimization, this becomes an absolute requirement for the userfaultfd feature http://lwn.net/Articles/615086/ . The userfaultfd allows to block the page fault, and in order to do so I need to drop the mmap_sem first. So this patch also ensures that all memory where userfaultfd could be registered by KVM, the very first fault (no matter if it is a regular page fault, or a get_user_pages) always has FAULT_FOLL_ALLOW_RETRY set. Then the userfaultfd blocks and it is waken only when the pagetable is already mapped. The second fault attempt after the wakeup doesn't need FAULT_FOLL_ALLOW_RETRY, so it's ok to retry without it. This patch (of 5): We can leverage the VM_FAULT_RETRY functionality in the page fault paths better by using either get_user_pages_locked or get_user_pages_unlocked. The former allows conversion of get_user_pages invocations that will have to pass a "&locked" parameter to know if the mmap_sem was dropped during the call. Example from: down_read(&mm->mmap_sem); do_something() get_user_pages(tsk, mm, ..., pages, NULL); up_read(&mm->mmap_sem); to: int locked = 1; down_read(&mm->mmap_sem); do_something() get_user_pages_locked(tsk, mm, ..., pages, &locked); if (locked) up_read(&mm->mmap_sem); The latter is suitable only as a drop in replacement of the form: down_read(&mm->mmap_sem); get_user_pages(tsk, mm, ..., pages, NULL); up_read(&mm->mmap_sem); into: get_user_pages_unlocked(tsk, mm, ..., pages); Where tsk, mm, the intermediate "..." paramters and "pages" can be any value as before. Just the last parameter of get_user_pages (vmas) must be NULL for get_user_pages_locked|unlocked to be usable (the latter original form wouldn't have been safe anyway if vmas wasn't null, for the former we just make it explicit by dropping the parameter).

mm/gup: allow to react to fatal signals The existing gup code does not react to the fatal signals in many code paths. For example, in one retry path of gup we're still using down_read() rather than down_read_killable(). Also, when doing page faults we don't pass in FAULT_FLAG_KILLABLE as well, which means that within the faulting process we'll wait in non-killable way as well. These were spotted by Linus during the code review of some other patches. Let's allow the gup code to react to fatal signals to improve the responsiveness of threads when during gup and being killed.

mm/gup: continue VM_FAULT_RETRY processing even for pre-faults When get_user_pages*() is called with pages = NULL, the processing of VM_FAULT_RETRY terminates early without actually retrying to fault-in all the pages. If the pages in the requested range belong to a VMA that has userfaultfd registered, handle_userfault() returns VM_FAULT_RETRY *after* user space has populated the page, but for the gup pre-fault case there's no actual retry and the caller will get no pages although they are present. This issue was uncovered when running post-copy memory restore in CRIU after d9c9ce34ed5c ("x86/fpu: Fault-in user stack if copy_fpstate_to_sigframe() fails"). After this change, the copying of FPU state to the sigframe switched from copy_to_user() variants which caused a real page fault to get_user_pages() with pages parameter set to NULL. In post-copy mode of CRIU, the destination memory is managed with userfaultfd and lack of the retry for pre-fault case in get_user_pages() causes a crash of the restored process. Making the pre-fault behavior of get_user_pages() the same as the "normal" one fixes the issue.

mm: gup: add get_user_pages_locked and get_user_pages_unlocked FAULT_FOLL_ALLOW_RETRY allows the page fault to drop the mmap_sem for reading to reduce the mmap_sem contention (for writing), like while waiting for I/O completion. The problem is that right now practically no get_user_pages call uses FAULT_FOLL_ALLOW_RETRY, so we're not leveraging that nifty feature. Andres fixed it for the KVM page fault. However get_user_pages_fast remains uncovered, and 99% of other get_user_pages aren't using it either (the only exception being FOLL_NOWAIT in KVM which is really nonblocking and in fact it doesn't even release the mmap_sem). So this patchsets extends the optimization Andres did in the KVM page fault to the whole kernel. It makes most important places (including gup_fast) to use FAULT_FOLL_ALLOW_RETRY to reduce the mmap_sem hold times during I/O. The only few places that remains uncovered are drivers like v4l and other exceptions that tends to work on their own memory and they're not working on random user memory (for example like O_DIRECT that uses gup_fast and is fully covered by this patch). A follow up patch should probably also add a printk_once warning to get_user_pages that should go obsolete and be phased out eventually. The "vmas" parameter of get_user_pages makes it fundamentally incompatible with FAULT_FOLL_ALLOW_RETRY (vmas array becomes meaningless the moment the mmap_sem is released). While this is just an optimization, this becomes an absolute requirement for the userfaultfd feature http://lwn.net/Articles/615086/ . The userfaultfd allows to block the page fault, and in order to do so I need to drop the mmap_sem first. So this patch also ensures that all memory where userfaultfd could be registered by KVM, the very first fault (no matter if it is a regular page fault, or a get_user_pages) always has FAULT_FOLL_ALLOW_RETRY set. Then the userfaultfd blocks and it is waken only when the pagetable is already mapped. The second fault attempt after the wakeup doesn't need FAULT_FOLL_ALLOW_RETRY, so it's ok to retry without it. This patch (of 5): We can leverage the VM_FAULT_RETRY functionality in the page fault paths better by using either get_user_pages_locked or get_user_pages_unlocked. The former allows conversion of get_user_pages invocations that will have to pass a "&locked" parameter to know if the mmap_sem was dropped during the call. Example from: down_read(&mm->mmap_sem); do_something() get_user_pages(tsk, mm, ..., pages, NULL); up_read(&mm->mmap_sem); to: int locked = 1; down_read(&mm->mmap_sem); do_something() get_user_pages_locked(tsk, mm, ..., pages, &locked); if (locked) up_read(&mm->mmap_sem); The latter is suitable only as a drop in replacement of the form: down_read(&mm->mmap_sem); get_user_pages(tsk, mm, ..., pages, NULL); up_read(&mm->mmap_sem); into: get_user_pages_unlocked(tsk, mm, ..., pages); Where tsk, mm, the intermediate "..." paramters and "pages" can be any value as before. Just the last parameter of get_user_pages (vmas) must be NULL for get_user_pages_locked|unlocked to be usable (the latter original form wouldn't have been safe anyway if vmas wasn't null, for the former we just make it explicit by dropping the parameter). If vmas is not NULL these two methods cannot be used.

mm/gup: rename "nonblocking" to "locked" where proper Patch series "mm: Page fault enhancements", v6. This series contains cleanups and enhancements to current page fault logic. The whole idea comes from the discussion between Andrea and Linus on the bug reported by syzbot here: https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/11/2/833 Basically it does two things: (a) Allows the page fault logic to be more interactive on not only SIGKILL, but also the rest of userspace signals, and, (b) Allows the page fault retry (VM_FAULT_RETRY) to happen for more than once. For (a): with the changes we should be able to react faster when page faults are working in parallel with userspace signals like SIGSTOP and SIGCONT (and more), and with that we can remove the buggy part in userfaultfd and benefit the whole page fault mechanism on faster signal processing to reach the userspace. For (b), we should be able to allow the page fault handler to loop for even more than twice. Some context: for now since we have FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY we can allow to retry the page fault once with the same interrupt context, however never more than twice. This can be not only a potential cleanup to remove this assumption since AFAIU the code itself doesn't really have this twice-only limitation (though that should be a protective approach in the past), at the same time it'll greatly simplify future works like userfaultfd write-protect where it's possible to retry for more than twice (please have a look at [1] below for a possible user that might require the page fault to be handled for a third time; if we can remove the retry limitation we can simply drop that patch and those complexity).

This can be not only a potential cleanup to remove this assumption since AFAIU the code itself doesn't really have this twice-only limitation (though that should be a protective approach in the past), at the same time it'll greatly simplify future works like userfaultfd write-protect where it's possible to retry for more than twice (please have a look at [1] below for a possible user that might require the page fault to be handled for a third time; if we can remove the retry limitation we can simply drop that patch and those complexity). This patch (of 16): There's plenty of places around __get_user_pages() that has a parameter "nonblocking" which does not really mean that "it won't block" (because it can really block) but instead it shows whether the mmap_sem is released by up_read() during the page fault handling mostly when VM_FAULT_RETRY is returned. We have the correct naming in e.g. get_user_pages_locked() or get_user_pages_remote() as "locked", however there're still many places that are using the "nonblocking" as name. Renaming the places to "locked" where proper to better suite the functionality of the variable. While at it, fixing up some of the comments accordingly.

mm: introduce get_user_pages_longterm Patch series "introduce get_user_pages_longterm()", v2. Here is a new get_user_pages api for cases where a driver intends to keep an elevated page count indefinitely. This is distinct from usages like iov_iter_get_pages where the elevated page counts are transient. The iov_iter_get_pages cases immediately turn around and submit the pages to a device driver which will put_page when the i/o operation completes (under kernel control). In the longterm case userspace is responsible for dropping the page reference at some undefined point in the future. This is untenable for filesystem-dax case where the filesystem is in control of the lifetime of the block / page and needs reasonable limits on how long it can wait for pages in a mapping to become idle. Fixing filesystems to actually wait for dax pages to be idle before blocks from a truncate/hole-punch operation are repurposed is saved for a later patch series. Also, allowing longterm registration of dax mappings is a future patch series that introduces a "map with lease" semantic where the kernel can revoke a lease and force userspace to drop its page references. I have also tagged these for -stable to purposely break cases that might assume that longterm memory registrations for filesystem-dax mappings were supported by the kernel. The behavior regression this policy change implies is one of the reasons we maintain the "dax enabled. Warning: EXPERIMENTAL, use at your own risk" notification when mounting a filesystem in dax mode. It is worth noting the device-dax interface does not suffer the same constraints since it does not support file space management operations like hole-punch. This patch (of 4): Until there is a solution to the dma-to-dax vs truncate problem it is not safe to allow long standing memory registrations against filesytem-dax vmas. Device-dax vmas do not have this problem and are explicitly allowed. This is temporary until a "memory registration with layout-lease" mechanism can be implemented for the affected sub-systems (RDMA and V4L2).

mm/gup: replace get_user_pages_longterm() with FOLL_LONGTERM Pach series "Add FOLL_LONGTERM to GUP fast and use it". HFI1, qib, and mthca, use get_user_pages_fast() due to its performance advantages. These pages can be held for a significant time. But get_user_pages_fast() does not protect against mapping FS DAX pages. Introduce FOLL_LONGTERM and use this flag in get_user_pages_fast() which retains the performance while also adding the FS DAX checks. XDP has also shown interest in using this functionality.[1] In addition we change get_user_pages() to use the new FOLL_LONGTERM flag and remove the specialized get_user_pages_longterm call. [1] https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/3/19/939 "longterm" is a relative thing and at this point is probably a misnomer. This is really flagging a pin which is going to be given to hardware and can't move. I've thought of a couple of alternative names but I think we have to settle on if we are going to use FL_LAYOUT or something else to solve the "longterm" problem. Then I think we can change the flag to a better name. Secondly, it depends on how often you are registering memory. I have spoken with some RDMA users who consider MR in the performance path... For the overall application performance. I don't have the numbers as the tests for HFI1 were done a long time ago. But there was a significant advantage. Some of which is probably due to the fact that you don't have to hold mmap_sem. Finally, architecturally I think it would be good for everyone to use *_fast. There are patches submitted to the RDMA list which would allow the use of *_fast (they reworking the use of mmap_sem) and as soon as they are accepted I'll submit a patch to convert the RDMA core as well. Also to this point others are looking to use *_fast. As an aside, Jasons pointed out in my previous submission that *_fast and *_unlocked look very much the same. I agree and I think further cleanup will be coming. But I'm focused on getting the final solution for DAX at the moment. This patch (of 7): This patch starts a series which aims to support FOLL_LONGTERM in get_user_pages_fast(). Some callers who would like to do a longterm (user controlled pin) of pages with the fast variant of GUP for performance purposes. Rather than have a separate get_user_pages_longterm() call, introduce FOLL_LONGTERM and change the longterm callers to use it. This patch does not change any functionality. In the short term "longterm" or user controlled pins are unsafe for Filesystems and FS DAX in particular has been blocked. However, callers of get_user_pages_fast() were not "protected". FOLL_LONGTERM can _only_ be supported with get_user_pages[_fast]() as it requires vmas to determine if DAX is in use. NOTE: In merging with the CMA changes we opt to change the get_user_pages() call in check_and_migrate_cma_pages() to a call of __get_user_pages_locked() on the newly migrated pages. This makes the code read better in that we are calling __get_user_pages_locked() on the pages before and after a potential migration. As a side affect some of the interfaces are cleaned up but this is not the primary purpose of the series. In review[1] it was asked: <quote> > This I don't get - if you do lock down long term mappings performance > of the actual get_user_pages call shouldn't matter to start with. > > What do I miss?

mm: introduce get_user_pages_longterm Patch series "introduce get_user_pages_longterm()", v2. Here is a new get_user_pages api for cases where a driver intends to keep an elevated page count indefinitely. This is distinct from usages like iov_iter_get_pages where the elevated page counts are transient. The iov_iter_get_pages cases immediately turn around and submit the pages to a device driver which will put_page when the i/o operation completes (under kernel control). In the longterm case userspace is responsible for dropping the page reference at some undefined point in the future. This is untenable for filesystem-dax case where the filesystem is in control of the lifetime of the block / page and needs reasonable limits on how long it can wait for pages in a mapping to become idle. Fixing filesystems to actually wait for dax pages to be idle before blocks from a truncate/hole-punch operation are repurposed is saved for a later patch series. Also, allowing longterm registration of dax mappings is a future patch series that introduces a "map with lease" semantic where the kernel can revoke a lease and force userspace to drop its page references. I have also tagged these for -stable to purposely break cases that might assume that longterm memory registrations for filesystem-dax mappings were supported by the kernel. The behavior regression this policy change implies is one of the reasons we maintain the "dax enabled. Warning: EXPERIMENTAL, use at your own risk" notification when mounting a filesystem in dax mode. It is worth noting the device-dax interface does not suffer the same constraints since it does not support file space management operations like hole-punch. This patch (of 4): Until there is a solution to the dma-to-dax vs truncate problem it is not safe to allow long standing memory registrations against filesytem-dax vmas. Device-dax vmas do not have this problem and are explicitly allowed. This is temporary until a "memory registration with layout-lease" mechanism can be implemented for the affected sub-systems (RDMA and V4L2).

Here is a new get_user_pages api for cases where a driver intends to keep an elevated page count indefinitely. This is distinct from usages like iov_iter_get_pages where the elevated page counts are transient. The iov_iter_get_pages cases immediately turn around and submit the pages to a device driver which will put_page when the i/o operation completes (under kernel control). In the longterm case userspace is responsible for dropping the page reference at some undefined point in the future. This is untenable for filesystem-dax case where the filesystem is in control of the lifetime of the block / page and needs reasonable limits on how long it can wait for pages in a mapping to become idle. Fixing filesystems to actually wait for dax pages to be idle before blocks from a truncate/hole-punch operation are repurposed is saved for a later patch series. Also, allowing longterm registration of dax mappings is a future patch series that introduces a "map with lease" semantic where the kernel can revoke a lease and force userspace to drop its page references. I have also tagged these for -stable to purposely break cases that might assume that longterm memory registrations for filesystem-dax mappings were supported by the kernel. The behavior regression this policy change implies is one of the reasons we maintain the "dax enabled. Warning: EXPERIMENTAL, use at your own risk" notification when mounting a filesystem in dax mode. It is worth noting the device-dax interface does not suffer the same constraints since it does not support file space management operations like hole-punch. This patch (of 4): Until there is a solution to the dma-to-dax vs truncate problem it is not safe to allow long standing memory registrations against filesytem-dax vmas. Device-dax vmas do not have this problem and are explicitly allowed. This is temporary until a "memory registration with layout-lease" mechanism can be implemented for the affected sub-systems (RDMA and V4L2).

mm/gup: replace get_user_pages_longterm() with FOLL_LONGTERM Pach series "Add FOLL_LONGTERM to GUP fast and use it". HFI1, qib, and mthca, use get_user_pages_fast() due to its performance advantages. These pages can be held for a significant time. But get_user_pages_fast() does not protect against mapping FS DAX pages. Introduce FOLL_LONGTERM and use this flag in get_user_pages_fast() which retains the performance while also adding the FS DAX checks. XDP has also shown interest in using this functionality.[1] In addition we change get_user_pages() to use the new FOLL_LONGTERM flag and remove the specialized get_user_pages_longterm call. [1] https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/3/19/939 "longterm" is a relative thing and at this point is probably a misnomer. This is really flagging a pin which is going to be given to hardware and can't move. I've thought of a couple of alternative names but I think we have to settle on if we are going to use FL_LAYOUT or something else to solve the "longterm" problem. Then I think we can change the flag to a better name. Secondly, it depends on how often you are registering memory. I have spoken with some RDMA users who consider MR in the performance path... For the overall application performance. I don't have the numbers as the tests for HFI1 were done a long time ago. But there was a significant advantage. Some of which is probably due to the fact that you don't have to hold mmap_sem. Finally, architecturally I think it would be good for everyone to use *_fast. There are patches submitted to the RDMA list which would allow the use of *_fast (they reworking the use of mmap_sem) and as soon as they are accepted I'll submit a patch to convert the RDMA core as well. Also to this point others are looking to use *_fast. As an aside, Jasons pointed out in my previous submission that *_fast and *_unlocked look very much the same. I agree and I think further cleanup will be coming. But I'm focused on getting the final solution for DAX at the moment. This patch (of 7): This patch starts a series which aims to support FOLL_LONGTERM in get_user_pages_fast(). Some callers who would like to do a longterm (user controlled pin) of pages with the fast variant of GUP for performance purposes. Rather than have a separate get_user_pages_longterm() call, introduce FOLL_LONGTERM and change the longterm callers to use it. This patch does not change any functionality. In the short term "longterm" or user controlled pins are unsafe for Filesystems and FS DAX in particular has been blocked. However, callers of get_user_pages_fast() were not "protected". FOLL_LONGTERM can _only_ be supported with get_user_pages[_fast]() as it requires vmas to determine if DAX is in use. NOTE: In merging with the CMA changes we opt to change the get_user_pages() call in check_and_migrate_cma_pages() to a call of __get_user_pages_locked() on the newly migrated pages. This makes the code read better in that we are calling __get_user_pages_locked() on the pages before and after a potential migration. As a side affect some of the interfaces are cleaned up but this is not the primary purpose of the series. In review[1] it was asked: <quote> > This I don't get - if you do lock down long term mappings performance > of the actual get_user_pages call shouldn't matter to start with. > > What do I miss?

mm: introduce get_user_pages_longterm Patch series "introduce get_user_pages_longterm()", v2. Here is a new get_user_pages api for cases where a driver intends to keep an elevated page count indefinitely. This is distinct from usages like iov_iter_get_pages where the elevated page counts are transient. The iov_iter_get_pages cases immediately turn around and submit the pages to a device driver which will put_page when the i/o operation completes (under kernel control). In the longterm case userspace is responsible for dropping the page reference at some undefined point in the future. This is untenable for filesystem-dax case where the filesystem is in control of the lifetime of the block / page and needs reasonable limits on how long it can wait for pages in a mapping to become idle. Fixing filesystems to actually wait for dax pages to be idle before blocks from a truncate/hole-punch operation are repurposed is saved for a later patch series. Also, allowing longterm registration of dax mappings is a future patch series that introduces a "map with lease" semantic where the kernel can revoke a lease and force userspace to drop its page references. I have also tagged these for -stable to purposely break cases that might assume that longterm memory registrations for filesystem-dax mappings were supported by the kernel. The behavior regression this policy change implies is one of the reasons we maintain the "dax enabled. Warning: EXPERIMENTAL, use at your own risk" notification when mounting a filesystem in dax mode. It is worth noting the device-dax interface does not suffer the same constraints since it does not support file space management operations like hole-punch. This patch (of 4): Until there is a solution to the dma-to-dax vs truncate problem it is not safe to allow long standing memory registrations against filesytem-dax vmas. Device-dax vmas do not have this problem and are explicitly allowed. This is temporary until a "memory registration with layout-lease" mechanism can be implemented for the affected sub-systems (RDMA and V4L2).

mm/gup: replace get_user_pages_longterm() with FOLL_LONGTERM Pach series "Add FOLL_LONGTERM to GUP fast and use it". HFI1, qib, and mthca, use get_user_pages_fast() due to its performance advantages. These pages can be held for a significant time. But get_user_pages_fast() does not protect against mapping FS DAX pages. Introduce FOLL_LONGTERM and use this flag in get_user_pages_fast() which retains the performance while also adding the FS DAX checks. XDP has also shown interest in using this functionality.[1] In addition we change get_user_pages() to use the new FOLL_LONGTERM flag and remove the specialized get_user_pages_longterm call. [1] https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/3/19/939 "longterm" is a relative thing and at this point is probably a misnomer. This is really flagging a pin which is going to be given to hardware and can't move. I've thought of a couple of alternative names but I think we have to settle on if we are going to use FL_LAYOUT or something else to solve the "longterm" problem. Then I think we can change the flag to a better name. Secondly, it depends on how often you are registering memory. I have spoken with some RDMA users who consider MR in the performance path... For the overall application performance. I don't have the numbers as the tests for HFI1 were done a long time ago. But there was a significant advantage. Some of which is probably due to the fact that you don't have to hold mmap_sem. Finally, architecturally I think it would be good for everyone to use *_fast. There are patches submitted to the RDMA list which would allow the use of *_fast (they reworking the use of mmap_sem) and as soon as they are accepted I'll submit a patch to convert the RDMA core as well. Also to this point others are looking to use *_fast. As an aside, Jasons pointed out in my previous submission that *_fast and *_unlocked look very much the same. I agree and I think further cleanup will be coming. But I'm focused on getting the final solution for DAX at the moment. This patch (of 7): This patch starts a series which aims to support FOLL_LONGTERM in get_user_pages_fast(). Some callers who would like to do a longterm (user controlled pin) of pages with the fast variant of GUP for performance purposes. Rather than have a separate get_user_pages_longterm() call, introduce FOLL_LONGTERM and change the longterm callers to use it. This patch does not change any functionality. In the short term "longterm" or user controlled pins are unsafe for Filesystems and FS DAX in particular has been blocked. However, callers of get_user_pages_fast() were not "protected". FOLL_LONGTERM can _only_ be supported with get_user_pages[_fast]() as it requires vmas to determine if DAX is in use. NOTE: In merging with the CMA changes we opt to change the get_user_pages() call in check_and_migrate_cma_pages() to a call of __get_user_pages_locked() on the newly migrated pages. This makes the code read better in that we are calling __get_user_pages_locked() on the pages before and after a potential migration. As a side affect some of the interfaces are cleaned up but this is not the primary purpose of the series. In review[1] it was asked: <quote> > This I don't get - if you do lock down long term mappings performance > of the actual get_user_pages call shouldn't matter to start with. > > What do I miss? A couple of points. First "longterm" is a relative thing and at this point is probably a misnomer. This is really flagging a pin which is going to be given to hardware and can't move.

mm/gup: split get_user_pages_remote() into two routines Patch series "mm/gup: track FOLL_PIN pages", v6. This activates tracking of FOLL_PIN pages. This is in support of fixing the get_user_pages()+DMA problem described in [1]-[4]. FOLL_PIN support is now in the main linux tree. However, the patch to use FOLL_PIN to track pages was *not* submitted, because Leon saw an RDMA test suite failure that involved (I think) page refcount overflows when huge pages were used. This patch definitively solves that kind of overflow problem, by adding an exact pincount, for compound pages (of order > 1), in the 3rd struct page of a compound page. If available, that form of pincounting is used, instead of the GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS approach. Thanks again to Jan Kara for that idea. Other interesting changes: * dump_page(): added one, or two new things to report for compound pages: head refcount (for all compound pages), and map_pincount (for compound pages of order > 1). * Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst: removed the "TODO" for the huge page refcount upper limit problems, and added notes about how it works now. Also added a note about the dump_page() enhancements. * Added some comments in gup.c and mm.h, to explain that there are two ways to count pinned pages: exact (for compound pages of order > 1) and fuzzy (GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS: for all other pages). ============================================================ General notes about the tracking patch: This is a prerequisite to solving the problem of proper interactions between file-backed pages, and [R]DMA activities, as discussed in [1], [2], [3], [4] and in a remarkable number of email threads since about 2017. :) In contrast to earlier approaches, the page tracking can be incrementally applied to the kernel call sites that, until now, have been simply calling get_user_pages() ("gup"). In other words, opt-in by changing from this: get_user_pages() (sets FOLL_GET) put_page() to this: pin_user_pages() (sets FOLL_PIN) unpin_user_page() ============================================================ Future steps: * Convert more subsystems from get_user_pages() to pin_user_pages(). The first probably needs to be bio/biovecs, because any filesystem testing is too difficult without those in place. * Change VFS and filesystems to respond appropriately when encountering dma-pinned pages. * Work with Ira and others to connect this all up with file system leases.

Split up get_user_pages_remote() into an outer routine that checks flags, and an implementation routine that will be reused. This makes subsequent changes much easier to understand. There should be no change in behavior due to this patch.

mm: fix get_user_pages_remote()'s handling of FOLL_LONGTERM As it says in the updated comment in gup.c: current FOLL_LONGTERM behavior is incompatible with FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY because of the FS DAX check requirement on vmas. However, the corresponding restriction in get_user_pages_remote() was slightly stricter than is actually required: it forbade all FOLL_LONGTERM callers, but we can actually allow FOLL_LONGTERM callers that do not set the "locked" arg. Update the code and comments to loosen the restriction, allowing FOLL_LONGTERM in some cases. Also, copy the DAX check ("if a VMA is DAX, don't allow long term pinning") from the VFIO call site, all the way into the internals of get_user_pages_remote() and __gup_longterm_locked(). That is: get_user_pages_remote() calls __gup_longterm_locked(), which in turn calls check_dax_vmas(). This check will then be removed from the VFIO call site in a subsequent patch. Thanks to Jason Gunthorpe for pointing out a clean way to fix this, and to Dan Williams for helping clarify the DAX refactoring.

mm/gup: split get_user_pages_remote() into two routines Patch series "mm/gup: track FOLL_PIN pages", v6. This activates tracking of FOLL_PIN pages. This is in support of fixing the get_user_pages()+DMA problem described in [1]-[4]. FOLL_PIN support is now in the main linux tree. However, the patch to use FOLL_PIN to track pages was *not* submitted, because Leon saw an RDMA test suite failure that involved (I think) page refcount overflows when huge pages were used. This patch definitively solves that kind of overflow problem, by adding an exact pincount, for compound pages (of order > 1), in the 3rd struct page of a compound page. If available, that form of pincounting is used, instead of the GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS approach. Thanks again to Jan Kara for that idea. Other interesting changes: * dump_page(): added one, or two new things to report for compound pages: head refcount (for all compound pages), and map_pincount (for compound pages of order > 1). * Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst: removed the "TODO" for the huge page refcount upper limit problems, and added notes about how it works now. Also added a note about the dump_page() enhancements. * Added some comments in gup.c and mm.h, to explain that there are two ways to count pinned pages: exact (for compound pages of order > 1) and fuzzy (GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS: for all other pages). ============================================================ General notes about the tracking patch: This is a prerequisite to solving the problem of proper interactions between file-backed pages, and [R]DMA activities, as discussed in [1], [2], [3], [4] and in a remarkable number of email threads since about 2017. :) In contrast to earlier approaches, the page tracking can be incrementally applied to the kernel call sites that, until now, have been simply calling get_user_pages() ("gup"). In other words, opt-in by changing from this: get_user_pages() (sets FOLL_GET) put_page() to this: pin_user_pages() (sets FOLL_PIN) unpin_user_page() ============================================================ Future steps: * Convert more subsystems from get_user_pages() to pin_user_pages(). The first probably needs to be bio/biovecs, because any filesystem testing is too difficult without those in place. * Change VFS and filesystems to respond appropriately when encountering dma-pinned pages. * Work with Ira and others to connect this all up with file system leases.

Split up get_user_pages_remote() into an outer routine that checks flags, and an implementation routine that will be reused. This makes subsequent changes much easier to understand.

mm/gup: track FOLL_PIN pages Add tracking of pages that were pinned via FOLL_PIN. This tracking is implemented via overloading of page->_refcount: pins are added by adding GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS (1024) to the refcount. This provides a fuzzy indication of pinning, and it can have false positives (and that's OK). Please see the pre-existing Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst for details. As mentioned in pin_user_pages.rst, callers who effectively set FOLL_PIN (typically via pin_user_pages*()) are required to ultimately free such pages via unpin_user_page(). Please also note the limitation, discussed in pin_user_pages.rst under the "TODO: for 1GB and larger huge pages" section. (That limitation will be removed in a following patch.) The effect of a FOLL_PIN flag is similar to that of FOLL_GET, and may be thought of as "FOLL_GET for DIO and/or RDMA use". Pages that have been pinned via FOLL_PIN are identifiable via a new function call: bool page_maybe_dma_pinned(struct page *page); What to do in response to encountering such a page, is left to later patchsets. There is discussion about this in [1], [2], [3], and [4]. This also changes a BUG_ON(), to a WARN_ON(), in follow_page_mask().

mm/gup: replace get_user_pages_longterm() with FOLL_LONGTERM Pach series "Add FOLL_LONGTERM to GUP fast and use it". HFI1, qib, and mthca, use get_user_pages_fast() due to its performance advantages.

Some callers who would like to do a longterm (user controlled pin) of pages with the fast variant of GUP for performance purposes. Rather than have a separate get_user_pages_longterm() call, introduce FOLL_LONGTERM and change the longterm callers to use it. This patch does not change any functionality. In the short term "longterm" or user controlled pins are unsafe for Filesystems and FS DAX in particular has been blocked. However, callers of get_user_pages_fast() were not "protected". FOLL_LONGTERM can _only_ be supported with get_user_pages[_fast]() as it requires vmas to determine if DAX is in use. NOTE: In merging with the CMA changes we opt to change the get_user_pages() call in check_and_migrate_cma_pages() to a call of __get_user_pages_locked() on the newly migrated pages.

mm/gup: introduce pin_user_pages*() and FOLL_PIN Introduce pin_user_pages*() variations of get_user_pages*() calls, and also pin_longterm_pages*() variations. For now, these are placeholder calls, until the various call sites are converted to use the correct get_user_pages*() or pin_user_pages*() API. These variants will eventually all set FOLL_PIN, which is also introduced, and thoroughly documented. pin_user_pages() pin_user_pages_remote() pin_user_pages_fast() All pages that are pinned via the above calls, must be unpinned via put_user_page(). The underlying rules are: * FOLL_PIN is a gup-internal flag, so the call sites should not directly set it. That behavior is enforced with assertions. * Call sites that want to indicate that they are going to do DirectIO ("DIO") or something with similar characteristics, should call a get_user_pages()-like wrapper call that sets FOLL_PIN. These wrappers will: * Start with "pin_user_pages" instead of "get_user_pages". That makes it easy to find and audit the call sites. * Set FOLL_PIN * For pages that are received via FOLL_PIN, those pages must be returned via put_user_page(). Thanks to Jan Kara and Vlastimil Babka for explaining the 4 cases in this documentation. (I've reworded it and expanded upon it.)

mm: introduce get_user_pages_longterm Patch series "introduce get_user_pages_longterm()", v2. Here is a new get_user_pages api for cases where a driver intends to keep an elevated page count indefinitely. This is distinct from usages like iov_iter_get_pages where the elevated page counts are transient. The iov_iter_get_pages cases immediately turn around and submit the pages to a device driver which will put_page when the i/o operation completes (under kernel control). In the longterm case userspace is responsible for dropping the page reference at some undefined point in the future. This is untenable for filesystem-dax case where the filesystem is in control of the lifetime of the block / page and needs reasonable limits on how long it can wait for pages in a mapping to become idle. Fixing filesystems to actually wait for dax pages to be idle before blocks from a truncate/hole-punch operation are repurposed is saved for a later patch series. Also, allowing longterm registration of dax mappings is a future patch series that introduces a "map with lease" semantic where the kernel can revoke a lease and force userspace to drop its page references. I have also tagged these for -stable to purposely break cases that might assume that longterm memory registrations for filesystem-dax mappings were supported by the kernel. The behavior regression this policy change implies is one of the reasons we maintain the "dax enabled. Warning: EXPERIMENTAL, use at your own risk" notification when mounting a filesystem in dax mode. It is worth noting the device-dax interface does not suffer the same constraints since it does not support file space management operations like hole-punch. This patch (of 4): Until there is a solution to the dma-to-dax vs truncate problem it is not safe to allow long standing memory registrations against filesytem-dax vmas. Device-dax vmas do not have this problem and are explicitly allowed. This is temporary until a "memory registration with layout-lease" mechanism can be implemented for the affected sub-systems (RDMA and V4L2).

mm: introduce a general RCU get_user_pages_fast() This series implements general forms of get_user_pages_fast and __get_user_pages_fast in core code and activates them for arm and arm64. These are required for Transparent HugePages to function correctly, as a futex on a THP tail will otherwise result in an infinite loop (due to the core implementation of __get_user_pages_fast always returning 0). Unfortunately, a futex on THP tail can be quite common for certain workloads; thus THP is unreliable without a __get_user_pages_fast implementation. This series may also be beneficial for direct-IO heavy workloads and certain KVM workloads. This patch (of 6): get_user_pages_fast() attempts to pin user pages by walking the page tables directly and avoids taking locks. Thus the walker needs to be protected from page table pages being freed from under it, and needs to block any THP splits. One way to achieve this is to have the walker disable interrupts, and rely on IPIs from the TLB flushing code blocking before the page table pages are freed. On some platforms we have hardware broadcast of TLB invalidations, thus the TLB flushing code doesn't necessarily need to broadcast IPIs; and spuriously broadcasting IPIs can hurt system performance if done too often. This problem has been solved on PowerPC and Sparc by batching up page table pages belonging to more than one mm_user, then scheduling an rcu_sched callback to free the pages. This RCU page table free logic has been promoted to core code and is activated when one enables HAVE_RCU_TABLE_FREE. Unfortunately, these architectures implement their own get_user_pages_fast routines. The RCU page table free logic coupled with an IPI broadcast on THP split (which is a rare event), allows one to protect a page table walker by merely disabling the interrupts during the walk. This patch provides a general RCU implementation of get_user_pages_fast that can be used by architectures that perform hardware broadcast of TLB invalidations. It is based heavily on the PowerPC implementation by Nick Piggin.

* pages. Disabling interrupts will allow the fast_gup walker to both block
* the rcu_sched callback, and an IPI that we broadcast for splitting THPs
* (which is a relatively rare event). The code below adopts this strategy.
*
* Before activating this code, please be aware that the following assumptions
* are currently made:
*
* *) Either MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE is enabled, and tlb_remove_table() is used to
* free pages containing page tables or TLB flushing requires IPI broadcast.
mm: introduce a general RCU get_user_pages_fast() This series implements general forms of get_user_pages_fast and __get_user_pages_fast in core code and activates them for arm and arm64. These are required for Transparent HugePages to function correctly, as a futex on a THP tail will otherwise result in an infinite loop (due to the core implementation of __get_user_pages_fast always returning 0). Unfortunately, a futex on THP tail can be quite common for certain workloads; thus THP is unreliable without a __get_user_pages_fast implementation. This series may also be beneficial for direct-IO heavy workloads and certain KVM workloads. This patch (of 6): get_user_pages_fast() attempts to pin user pages by walking the page tables directly and avoids taking locks. Thus the walker needs to be protected from page table pages being freed from under it, and needs to block any THP splits. One way to achieve this is to have the walker disable interrupts, and rely on IPIs from the TLB flushing code blocking before the page table pages are freed. On some platforms we have hardware broadcast of TLB invalidations, thus the TLB flushing code doesn't necessarily need to broadcast IPIs; and spuriously broadcasting IPIs can hurt system performance if done too often. This problem has been solved on PowerPC and Sparc by batching up page table pages belonging to more than one mm_user, then scheduling an rcu_sched callback to free the pages. This RCU page table free logic has been promoted to core code and is activated when one enables HAVE_RCU_TABLE_FREE. Unfortunately, these architectures implement their own get_user_pages_fast routines. The RCU page table free logic coupled with an IPI broadcast on THP split (which is a rare event), allows one to protect a page table walker by merely disabling the interrupts during the walk. This patch provides a general RCU implementation of get_user_pages_fast that can be used by architectures that perform hardware broadcast of TLB invalidations. It is based heavily on the PowerPC implementation by Nick Piggin.

mm/gup: track FOLL_PIN pages Add tracking of pages that were pinned via FOLL_PIN. This tracking is implemented via overloading of page->_refcount: pins are added by adding GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS (1024) to the refcount. This provides a fuzzy indication of pinning, and it can have false positives (and that's OK). Please see the pre-existing Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst for details. As mentioned in pin_user_pages.rst, callers who effectively set FOLL_PIN (typically via pin_user_pages*()) are required to ultimately free such pages via unpin_user_page(). Please also note the limitation, discussed in pin_user_pages.rst under the "TODO: for 1GB and larger huge pages" section. (That limitation will be removed in a following patch.) The effect of a FOLL_PIN flag is similar to that of FOLL_GET, and may be thought of as "FOLL_GET for DIO and/or RDMA use". Pages that have been pinned via FOLL_PIN are identifiable via a new function call: bool page_maybe_dma_pinned(struct page *page); What to do in response to encountering such a page, is left to later patchsets.

That limits the number of huge pages that can be pinned. This patch removes that limitation, by using an exact form of pin counting for compound pages of order > 1.

A new struct page field, hpage_pinned_refcount, has been added, replacing a padding field in the union (so no new space is used). This enhancement also has a useful side effect: huge pages and compound pages (of order > 1) do not suffer from the "potential false positives" problem that is discussed in the page_dma_pinned() comment block. That is because these compound pages have extra space for tracking things, so they get exact pin counts instead of overloading page->_refcount.

mm: introduce ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL Currently the PTE special supports is turned on in per architecture header files. Most of the time, it is defined in arch/*/include/asm/pgtable.h depending or not on some other per architecture static definition. This patch introduce a new configuration variable to manage this directly in the Kconfig files. It would later replace __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL. Here notes for some architecture where the definition of __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL is not obvious: arm __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL which is currently defined in arch/arm/include/asm/pgtable-3level.h which is included by arch/arm/include/asm/pgtable.h when CONFIG_ARM_LPAE is set. So select ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL if ARM_LPAE. powerpc __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL is defined in 2 files: - arch/powerpc/include/asm/book3s/64/pgtable.h - arch/powerpc/include/asm/pte-common.h The first one is included if (PPC_BOOK3S & PPC64) while the second is included in all the other cases. So select ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL all the time. sparc: __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL is defined if defined(__sparc__) && defined(__arch64__) which are defined through the compiler in sparc/Makefile if !SPARC32 which I assume to be if SPARC64. So select ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL if SPARC64 There is no functional change introduced by this patch.

mm: introduce a general RCU get_user_pages_fast() This series implements general forms of get_user_pages_fast and __get_user_pages_fast in core code and activates them for arm and arm64. These are required for Transparent HugePages to function correctly, as a futex on a THP tail will otherwise result in an infinite loop (due to the core implementation of __get_user_pages_fast always returning 0). Unfortunately, a futex on THP tail can be quite common for certain workloads; thus THP is unreliable without a __get_user_pages_fast implementation. This series may also be beneficial for direct-IO heavy workloads and certain KVM workloads. This patch (of 6): get_user_pages_fast() attempts to pin user pages by walking the page tables directly and avoids taking locks. Thus the walker needs to be protected from page table pages being freed from under it, and needs to block any THP splits. One way to achieve this is to have the walker disable interrupts, and rely on IPIs from the TLB flushing code blocking before the page table pages are freed. On some platforms we have hardware broadcast of TLB invalidations, thus the TLB flushing code doesn't necessarily need to broadcast IPIs; and spuriously broadcasting IPIs can hurt system performance if done too often. This problem has been solved on PowerPC and Sparc by batching up page table pages belonging to more than one mm_user, then scheduling an rcu_sched callback to free the pages. This RCU page table free logic has been promoted to core code and is activated when one enables HAVE_RCU_TABLE_FREE. Unfortunately, these architectures implement their own get_user_pages_fast routines. The RCU page table free logic coupled with an IPI broadcast on THP split (which is a rare event), allows one to protect a page table walker by merely disabling the interrupts during the walk. This patch provides a general RCU implementation of get_user_pages_fast that can be used by architectures that perform hardware broadcast of TLB invalidations. It is based heavily on the PowerPC implementation by Nick Piggin.

mm/gup: track FOLL_PIN pages Add tracking of pages that were pinned via FOLL_PIN. This tracking is implemented via overloading of page->_refcount: pins are added by adding GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS (1024) to the refcount. This provides a fuzzy indication of pinning, and it can have false positives (and that's OK). Please see the pre-existing Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst for details. As mentioned in pin_user_pages.rst, callers who effectively set FOLL_PIN (typically via pin_user_pages*()) are required to ultimately free such pages via unpin_user_page(). Please also note the limitation, discussed in pin_user_pages.rst under the "TODO: for 1GB and larger huge pages" section. (That limitation will be removed in a following patch.) The effect of a FOLL_PIN flag is similar to that of FOLL_GET, and may be thought of as "FOLL_GET for DIO and/or RDMA use". Pages that have been pinned via FOLL_PIN are identifiable via a new function call: bool page_maybe_dma_pinned(struct page *page); What to do in response to encountering such a page, is left to later patchsets. There is discussion about this in [1], [2], [3], and [4]. This also changes a BUG_ON(), to a WARN_ON(), in follow_page_mask().

mm: introduce a general RCU get_user_pages_fast() This series implements general forms of get_user_pages_fast and __get_user_pages_fast in core code and activates them for arm and arm64. These are required for Transparent HugePages to function correctly, as a futex on a THP tail will otherwise result in an infinite loop (due to the core implementation of __get_user_pages_fast always returning 0). Unfortunately, a futex on THP tail can be quite common for certain workloads; thus THP is unreliable without a __get_user_pages_fast implementation. This series may also be beneficial for direct-IO heavy workloads and certain KVM workloads. This patch (of 6): get_user_pages_fast() attempts to pin user pages by walking the page tables directly and avoids taking locks. Thus the walker needs to be protected from page table pages being freed from under it, and needs to block any THP splits. One way to achieve this is to have the walker disable interrupts, and rely on IPIs from the TLB flushing code blocking before the page table pages are freed. On some platforms we have hardware broadcast of TLB invalidations, thus the TLB flushing code doesn't necessarily need to broadcast IPIs; and spuriously broadcasting IPIs can hurt system performance if done too often. This problem has been solved on PowerPC and Sparc by batching up page table pages belonging to more than one mm_user, then scheduling an rcu_sched callback to free the pages. This RCU page table free logic has been promoted to core code and is activated when one enables HAVE_RCU_TABLE_FREE. Unfortunately, these architectures implement their own get_user_pages_fast routines. The RCU page table free logic coupled with an IPI broadcast on THP split (which is a rare event), allows one to protect a page table walker by merely disabling the interrupts during the walk. This patch provides a general RCU implementation of get_user_pages_fast that can be used by architectures that perform hardware broadcast of TLB invalidations. It is based heavily on the PowerPC implementation by Nick Piggin.

mm/gup: track FOLL_PIN pages Add tracking of pages that were pinned via FOLL_PIN. This tracking is implemented via overloading of page->_refcount: pins are added by adding GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS (1024) to the refcount. This provides a fuzzy indication of pinning, and it can have false positives (and that's OK). Please see the pre-existing Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst for details. As mentioned in pin_user_pages.rst, callers who effectively set FOLL_PIN (typically via pin_user_pages*()) are required to ultimately free such pages via unpin_user_page(). Please also note the limitation, discussed in pin_user_pages.rst under the "TODO: for 1GB and larger huge pages" section. (That limitation will be removed in a following patch.) The effect of a FOLL_PIN flag is similar to that of FOLL_GET, and may be thought of as "FOLL_GET for DIO and/or RDMA use". Pages that have been pinned via FOLL_PIN are identifiable via a new function call: bool page_maybe_dma_pinned(struct page *page); What to do in response to encountering such a page, is left to later patchsets. There is discussion about this in [1], [2], [3], and [4]. This also changes a BUG_ON(), to a WARN_ON(), in follow_page_mask().

mm/gup/writeback: add callbacks for inaccessible pages With the introduction of protected KVM guests on s390 there is now a concept of inaccessible pages. These pages need to be made accessible before the host can access them. While cpu accesses will trigger a fault that can be resolved, I/O accesses will just fail. We need to add a callback into architecture code for places that will do I/O, namely when writeback is started or when a page reference is taken. This is not only to enable paging, file backing etc, it is also necessary to protect the host against a malicious user space. For example a bad QEMU could simply start direct I/O on such protected memory. We do not want userspace to be able to trigger I/O errors and thus the logic is "whenever somebody accesses that page (gup) or does I/O, make sure that this page can be accessed". When the guest tries to access that page we will wait in the page fault handler for writeback to have finished and for the page_ref to be the expected value. On s390x the function is not supposed to fail, so it is ok to use a WARN_ON on failure. If we ever need some more finegrained handling we can tackle this when we know the details.

mm: introduce ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL Currently the PTE special supports is turned on in per architecture header files. Most of the time, it is defined in arch/*/include/asm/pgtable.h depending or not on some other per architecture static definition. This patch introduce a new configuration variable to manage this directly in the Kconfig files. It would later replace __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL. Here notes for some architecture where the definition of __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL is not obvious: arm __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL which is currently defined in arch/arm/include/asm/pgtable-3level.h which is included by arch/arm/include/asm/pgtable.h when CONFIG_ARM_LPAE is set. So select ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL if ARM_LPAE. powerpc __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL is defined in 2 files: - arch/powerpc/include/asm/book3s/64/pgtable.h - arch/powerpc/include/asm/pte-common.h The first one is included if (PPC_BOOK3S & PPC64) while the second is included in all the other cases. So select ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL all the time. sparc: __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL is defined if defined(__sparc__) && defined(__arch64__) which are defined through the compiler in sparc/Makefile if !SPARC32 which I assume to be if SPARC64. So select ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL if SPARC64 There is no functional change introduced by this patch.

mm/gup: factor out duplicate code from four routines Patch series "mm/gup: prereqs to track dma-pinned pages: FOLL_PIN", v12. Overview: This is a prerequisite to solving the problem of proper interactions between file-backed pages, and [R]DMA activities, as discussed in [1], [2], [3], and in a remarkable number of email threads since about 2017. :) A new internal gup flag, FOLL_PIN is introduced, and thoroughly documented in the last patch's Documentation/vm/pin_user_pages.rst. I believe that this will provide a good starting point for doing the layout lease work that Ira Weiny has been working on. That's because these new wrapper functions provide a clean, constrained, systematically named set of functionality that, again, is required in order to even know if a page is "dma-pinned". In contrast to earlier approaches, the page tracking can be incrementally applied to the kernel call sites that, until now, have been simply calling get_user_pages() ("gup"). In other words, opt-in by changing from this: get_user_pages() (sets FOLL_GET) put_page() to this: pin_user_pages() (sets FOLL_PIN) unpin_user_page() Testing: * I've done some overall kernel testing (LTP, and a few other goodies), and some directed testing to exercise some of the changes. And as you can see, gup_benchmark is enhanced to exercise this. Basically, I've been able to runtime test the core get_user_pages() and pin_user_pages() and related routines, but not so much on several of the call sites--but those are generally just a couple of lines changed, each. Not much of the kernel is actually using this, which on one hand reduces risk quite a lot. But on the other hand, testing coverage is low. So I'd love it if, in particular, the Infiniband and PowerPC folks could do a smoke test of this series for me. Runtime testing for the call sites so far is pretty light: * io_uring: Some directed tests from liburing exercise this, and they pass. * process_vm_access.c: A small directed test passes. * gup_benchmark: the enhanced version hits the new gup.c code, and passes. * infiniband: Ran rdma-core tests: rdma-core/build/bin/run_tests.py * VFIO: compiles (I'm vowing to set up a run time test soon, but it's not ready just yet) * powerpc: it compiles... * drm/via: compiles... * goldfish: compiles... * net/xdp: compiles... * media/v4l2: compiles...

mm/gup: track FOLL_PIN pages Add tracking of pages that were pinned via FOLL_PIN. This tracking is implemented via overloading of page->_refcount: pins are added by adding GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS (1024) to the refcount. This provides a fuzzy indication of pinning, and it can have false positives (and that's OK). Please see the pre-existing Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst for details. As mentioned in pin_user_pages.rst, callers who effectively set FOLL_PIN (typically via pin_user_pages*()) are required to ultimately free such pages via unpin_user_page(). Please also note the limitation, discussed in pin_user_pages.rst under the "TODO: for 1GB and larger huge pages" section. (That limitation will be removed in a following patch.) The effect of a FOLL_PIN flag is similar to that of FOLL_GET, and may be thought of as "FOLL_GET for DIO and/or RDMA use". Pages that have been pinned via FOLL_PIN are identifiable via a new function call: bool page_maybe_dma_pinned(struct page *page); What to do in response to encountering such a page, is left to later patchsets. There is discussion about this in [1], [2], [3], and [4]. This also changes a BUG_ON(), to a WARN_ON(), in follow_page_mask().

That's because these new wrapper functions provide a clean, constrained, systematically named set of functionality that, again, is required in order to even know if a page is "dma-pinned". In contrast to earlier approaches, the page tracking can be incrementally applied to the kernel call sites that, until now, have been simply calling get_user_pages() ("gup"). In other words, opt-in by changing from this: get_user_pages() (sets FOLL_GET) put_page() to this: pin_user_pages() (sets FOLL_PIN) unpin_user_page() Testing: * I've done some overall kernel testing (LTP, and a few other goodies), and some directed testing to exercise some of the changes. And as you can see, gup_benchmark is enhanced to exercise this. Basically, I've been able to runtime test the core get_user_pages() and pin_user_pages() and related routines, but not so much on several of the call sites--but those are generally just a couple of lines changed, each. Not much of the kernel is actually using this, which on one hand reduces risk quite a lot. But on the other hand, testing coverage is low. So I'd love it if, in particular, the Infiniband and PowerPC folks could do a smoke test of this series for me. Runtime testing for the call sites so far is pretty light: * io_uring: Some directed tests from liburing exercise this, and they pass. * process_vm_access.c: A small directed test passes. * gup_benchmark: the enhanced version hits the new gup.c code, and passes. * infiniband: Ran rdma-core tests: rdma-core/build/bin/run_tests.py * VFIO: compiles (I'm vowing to set up a run time test soon, but it's not ready just yet) * powerpc: it compiles... * drm/via: compiles... * goldfish: compiles... * net/xdp: compiles... * media/v4l2: compiles... [1] Some slow progress on get_user_pages() (Apr 2, 2019): https://lwn.net/Articles/784574/ [2] DMA and get_user_pages() (LPC: Dec 12, 2018): https://lwn.net/Articles/774411/ [3] The trouble with get_user_pages() (Apr 30, 2018): https://lwn.net/Articles/753027/ This patch (of 22): There are four locations in gup.c that have a fair amount of code duplication. This means that changing one requires making the same changes in four places, not to mention reading the same code four times, and wondering if there are subtle differences. Factor out the common code into static functions, thus reducing the overall line count and the code's complexity. Also, take the opportunity to slightly improve the efficiency of the error cases, by doing a mass subtraction of the refcount, surrounded by get_page()/put_page(). Also, further simplify (slightly), by waiting until the the successful end of each routine, to increment *nr.

mm: introduce a general RCU get_user_pages_fast() This series implements general forms of get_user_pages_fast and __get_user_pages_fast in core code and activates them for arm and arm64. These are required for Transparent HugePages to function correctly, as a futex on a THP tail will otherwise result in an infinite loop (due to the core implementation of __get_user_pages_fast always returning 0). Unfortunately, a futex on THP tail can be quite common for certain workloads; thus THP is unreliable without a __get_user_pages_fast implementation. This series may also be beneficial for direct-IO heavy workloads and certain KVM workloads. This patch (of 6): get_user_pages_fast() attempts to pin user pages by walking the page tables directly and avoids taking locks. Thus the walker needs to be protected from page table pages being freed from under it, and needs to block any THP splits. One way to achieve this is to have the walker disable interrupts, and rely on IPIs from the TLB flushing code blocking before the page table pages are freed. On some platforms we have hardware broadcast of TLB invalidations, thus the TLB flushing code doesn't necessarily need to broadcast IPIs; and spuriously broadcasting IPIs can hurt system performance if done too often. This problem has been solved on PowerPC and Sparc by batching up page table pages belonging to more than one mm_user, then scheduling an rcu_sched callback to free the pages. This RCU page table free logic has been promoted to core code and is activated when one enables HAVE_RCU_TABLE_FREE. Unfortunately, these architectures implement their own get_user_pages_fast routines. The RCU page table free logic coupled with an IPI broadcast on THP split (which is a rare event), allows one to protect a page table walker by merely disabling the interrupts during the walk. This patch provides a general RCU implementation of get_user_pages_fast that can be used by architectures that perform hardware broadcast of TLB invalidations. It is based heavily on the PowerPC implementation by Nick Piggin.

mm: drop tail page refcounting Tail page refcounting is utterly complicated and painful to support. It uses ->_mapcount on tail pages to store how many times this page is pinned. get_page() bumps ->_mapcount on tail page in addition to ->_count on head. This information is required by split_huge_page() to be able to distribute pins from head of compound page to tails during the split. We will need ->_mapcount to account PTE mappings of subpages of the compound page. We eliminate need in current meaning of ->_mapcount in tail pages by forbidding split entirely if the page is pinned. The only user of tail page refcounting is THP which is marked BROKEN for now. Let's drop all this mess. It makes get_page() and put_page() much simpler. Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

mm, gup: ensure real head page is ref-counted when using hugepages When speculatively taking references to a hugepage using page_cache_add_speculative() in gup_huge_pmd(), it is assumed that the page returned by pmd_page() is the head page. Although normally true, this assumption doesn't hold when the hugepage comprises of successive page table entries such as when using contiguous bit on arm64 at PTE or PMD levels. This can be addressed by ensuring that the page passed to page_cache_add_speculative() is the real head or by de-referencing the head page within the function. We take the first approach to keep the usage pattern aligned with page_cache_get_speculative() where users already pass the appropriate page, i.e., the de-referenced head. Apply the same logic to fix gup_huge_[pud|pgd]() as well.

Overview: This is a prerequisite to solving the problem of proper interactions between file-backed pages, and [R]DMA activities, as discussed in [1], [2], [3], and in a remarkable number of email threads since about 2017. :) A new internal gup flag, FOLL_PIN is introduced, and thoroughly documented in the last patch's Documentation/vm/pin_user_pages.rst.

That's because these new wrapper functions provide a clean, constrained, systematically named set of functionality that, again, is required in order to even know if a page is "dma-pinned". In contrast to earlier approaches, the page tracking can be incrementally applied to the kernel call sites that, until now, have been simply calling get_user_pages() ("gup"). In other words, opt-in by changing from this: get_user_pages() (sets FOLL_GET) put_page() to this: pin_user_pages() (sets FOLL_PIN) unpin_user_page() Testing: * I've done some overall kernel testing (LTP, and a few other goodies), and some directed testing to exercise some of the changes. And as you can see, gup_benchmark is enhanced to exercise this. Basically, I've been able to runtime test the core get_user_pages() and pin_user_pages() and related routines, but not so much on several of the call sites--but those are generally just a couple of lines changed, each. Not much of the kernel is actually using this, which on one hand reduces risk quite a lot. But on the other hand, testing coverage is low. So I'd love it if, in particular, the Infiniband and PowerPC folks could do a smoke test of this series for me. Runtime testing for the call sites so far is pretty light: * io_uring: Some directed tests from liburing exercise this, and they pass. * process_vm_access.c: A small directed test passes. * gup_benchmark: the enhanced version hits the new gup.c code, and passes. * infiniband: Ran rdma-core tests: rdma-core/build/bin/run_tests.py * VFIO: compiles (I'm vowing to set up a run time test soon, but it's not ready just yet) * powerpc: it compiles... * drm/via: compiles... * goldfish: compiles... * net/xdp: compiles... * media/v4l2: compiles...

mm: introduce a general RCU get_user_pages_fast() This series implements general forms of get_user_pages_fast and __get_user_pages_fast in core code and activates them for arm and arm64. These are required for Transparent HugePages to function correctly, as a futex on a THP tail will otherwise result in an infinite loop (due to the core implementation of __get_user_pages_fast always returning 0). Unfortunately, a futex on THP tail can be quite common for certain workloads; thus THP is unreliable without a __get_user_pages_fast implementation. This series may also be beneficial for direct-IO heavy workloads and certain KVM workloads. This patch (of 6): get_user_pages_fast() attempts to pin user pages by walking the page tables directly and avoids taking locks. Thus the walker needs to be protected from page table pages being freed from under it, and needs to block any THP splits. One way to achieve this is to have the walker disable interrupts, and rely on IPIs from the TLB flushing code blocking before the page table pages are freed. On some platforms we have hardware broadcast of TLB invalidations, thus the TLB flushing code doesn't necessarily need to broadcast IPIs; and spuriously broadcasting IPIs can hurt system performance if done too often. This problem has been solved on PowerPC and Sparc by batching up page table pages belonging to more than one mm_user, then scheduling an rcu_sched callback to free the pages. This RCU page table free logic has been promoted to core code and is activated when one enables HAVE_RCU_TABLE_FREE. Unfortunately, these architectures implement their own get_user_pages_fast routines. The RCU page table free logic coupled with an IPI broadcast on THP split (which is a rare event), allows one to protect a page table walker by merely disabling the interrupts during the walk. This patch provides a general RCU implementation of get_user_pages_fast that can be used by architectures that perform hardware broadcast of TLB invalidations. It is based heavily on the PowerPC implementation by Nick Piggin.

mm/gup: track FOLL_PIN pages Add tracking of pages that were pinned via FOLL_PIN. This tracking is implemented via overloading of page->_refcount: pins are added by adding GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS (1024) to the refcount. This provides a fuzzy indication of pinning, and it can have false positives (and that's OK). Please see the pre-existing Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst for details. As mentioned in pin_user_pages.rst, callers who effectively set FOLL_PIN (typically via pin_user_pages*()) are required to ultimately free such pages via unpin_user_page(). Please also note the limitation, discussed in pin_user_pages.rst under the "TODO: for 1GB and larger huge pages" section. (That limitation will be removed in a following patch.) The effect of a FOLL_PIN flag is similar to that of FOLL_GET, and may be thought of as "FOLL_GET for DIO and/or RDMA use". Pages that have been pinned via FOLL_PIN are identifiable via a new function call: bool page_maybe_dma_pinned(struct page *page); What to do in response to encountering such a page, is left to later patchsets. There is discussion about this in [1], [2], [3], and [4]. This also changes a BUG_ON(), to a WARN_ON(), in follow_page_mask().

mm: drop tail page refcounting Tail page refcounting is utterly complicated and painful to support. It uses ->_mapcount on tail pages to store how many times this page is pinned. get_page() bumps ->_mapcount on tail page in addition to ->_count on head. This information is required by split_huge_page() to be able to distribute pins from head of compound page to tails during the split. We will need ->_mapcount to account PTE mappings of subpages of the compound page. We eliminate need in current meaning of ->_mapcount in tail pages by forbidding split entirely if the page is pinned. The only user of tail page refcounting is THP which is marked BROKEN for now. Let's drop all this mess. It makes get_page() and put_page() much simpler. Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

mm, gup: ensure real head page is ref-counted when using hugepages When speculatively taking references to a hugepage using page_cache_add_speculative() in gup_huge_pmd(), it is assumed that the page returned by pmd_page() is the head page. Although normally true, this assumption doesn't hold when the hugepage comprises of successive page table entries such as when using contiguous bit on arm64 at PTE or PMD levels. This can be addressed by ensuring that the page passed to page_cache_add_speculative() is the real head or by de-referencing the head page within the function. We take the first approach to keep the usage pattern aligned with page_cache_get_speculative() where users already pass the appropriate page, i.e., the de-referenced head. Apply the same logic to fix gup_huge_[pud|pgd]() as well.

mm/gup: factor out duplicate code from four routines Patch series "mm/gup: prereqs to track dma-pinned pages: FOLL_PIN", v12. Overview: This is a prerequisite to solving the problem of proper interactions between file-backed pages, and [R]DMA activities, as discussed in [1], [2], [3], and in a remarkable number of email threads since about 2017. :) A new internal gup flag, FOLL_PIN is introduced, and thoroughly documented in the last patch's Documentation/vm/pin_user_pages.rst. I believe that this will provide a good starting point for doing the layout lease work that Ira Weiny has been working on. That's because these new wrapper functions provide a clean, constrained, systematically named set of functionality that, again, is required in order to even know if a page is "dma-pinned". In contrast to earlier approaches, the page tracking can be incrementally applied to the kernel call sites that, until now, have been simply calling get_user_pages() ("gup"). In other words, opt-in by changing from this: get_user_pages() (sets FOLL_GET) put_page() to this: pin_user_pages() (sets FOLL_PIN) unpin_user_page() Testing: * I've done some overall kernel testing (LTP, and a few other goodies), and some directed testing to exercise some of the changes. And as you can see, gup_benchmark is enhanced to exercise this. Basically, I've been able to runtime test the core get_user_pages() and pin_user_pages() and related routines, but not so much on several of the call sites--but those are generally just a couple of lines changed, each. Not much of the kernel is actually using this, which on one hand reduces risk quite a lot. But on the other hand, testing coverage is low. So I'd love it if, in particular, the Infiniband and PowerPC folks could do a smoke test of this series for me. Runtime testing for the call sites so far is pretty light: * io_uring: Some directed tests from liburing exercise this, and they pass. * process_vm_access.c: A small directed test passes. * gup_benchmark: the enhanced version hits the new gup.c code, and passes. * infiniband: Ran rdma-core tests: rdma-core/build/bin/run_tests.py * VFIO: compiles (I'm vowing to set up a run time test soon, but it's not ready just yet) * powerpc: it compiles... * drm/via: compiles... * goldfish: compiles... * net/xdp: compiles... * media/v4l2: compiles...

This means that changing one requires making the same changes in four places, not to mention reading the same code four times, and wondering if there are subtle differences. Factor out the common code into static functions, thus reducing the overall line count and the code's complexity. Also, take the opportunity to slightly improve the efficiency of the error cases, by doing a mass subtraction of the refcount, surrounded by get_page()/put_page(). Also, further simplify (slightly), by waiting until the the successful end of each routine, to increment *nr.

mm: introduce a general RCU get_user_pages_fast() This series implements general forms of get_user_pages_fast and __get_user_pages_fast in core code and activates them for arm and arm64. These are required for Transparent HugePages to function correctly, as a futex on a THP tail will otherwise result in an infinite loop (due to the core implementation of __get_user_pages_fast always returning 0). Unfortunately, a futex on THP tail can be quite common for certain workloads; thus THP is unreliable without a __get_user_pages_fast implementation. This series may also be beneficial for direct-IO heavy workloads and certain KVM workloads. This patch (of 6): get_user_pages_fast() attempts to pin user pages by walking the page tables directly and avoids taking locks. Thus the walker needs to be protected from page table pages being freed from under it, and needs to block any THP splits. One way to achieve this is to have the walker disable interrupts, and rely on IPIs from the TLB flushing code blocking before the page table pages are freed. On some platforms we have hardware broadcast of TLB invalidations, thus the TLB flushing code doesn't necessarily need to broadcast IPIs; and spuriously broadcasting IPIs can hurt system performance if done too often. This problem has been solved on PowerPC and Sparc by batching up page table pages belonging to more than one mm_user, then scheduling an rcu_sched callback to free the pages. This RCU page table free logic has been promoted to core code and is activated when one enables HAVE_RCU_TABLE_FREE. Unfortunately, these architectures implement their own get_user_pages_fast routines. The RCU page table free logic coupled with an IPI broadcast on THP split (which is a rare event), allows one to protect a page table walker by merely disabling the interrupts during the walk. This patch provides a general RCU implementation of get_user_pages_fast that can be used by architectures that perform hardware broadcast of TLB invalidations. It is based heavily on the PowerPC implementation by Nick Piggin.

mm/gup: track FOLL_PIN pages Add tracking of pages that were pinned via FOLL_PIN. This tracking is implemented via overloading of page->_refcount: pins are added by adding GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS (1024) to the refcount. This provides a fuzzy indication of pinning, and it can have false positives (and that's OK). Please see the pre-existing Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst for details. As mentioned in pin_user_pages.rst, callers who effectively set FOLL_PIN (typically via pin_user_pages*()) are required to ultimately free such pages via unpin_user_page(). Please also note the limitation, discussed in pin_user_pages.rst under the "TODO: for 1GB and larger huge pages" section. (That limitation will be removed in a following patch.) The effect of a FOLL_PIN flag is similar to that of FOLL_GET, and may be thought of as "FOLL_GET for DIO and/or RDMA use". Pages that have been pinned via FOLL_PIN are identifiable via a new function call: bool page_maybe_dma_pinned(struct page *page); What to do in response to encountering such a page, is left to later patchsets. There is discussion about this in [1], [2], [3], and [4]. This also changes a BUG_ON(), to a WARN_ON(), in follow_page_mask().

Overview: This is a prerequisite to solving the problem of proper interactions between file-backed pages, and [R]DMA activities, as discussed in [1], [2], [3], and in a remarkable number of email threads since about 2017. :) A new internal gup flag, FOLL_PIN is introduced, and thoroughly documented in the last patch's Documentation/vm/pin_user_pages.rst. I believe that this will provide a good starting point for doing the layout lease work that Ira Weiny has been working on. That's because these new wrapper functions provide a clean, constrained, systematically named set of functionality that, again, is required in order to even know if a page is "dma-pinned". In contrast to earlier approaches, the page tracking can be incrementally applied to the kernel call sites that, until now, have been simply calling get_user_pages() ("gup"). In other words, opt-in by changing from this: get_user_pages() (sets FOLL_GET) put_page() to this: pin_user_pages() (sets FOLL_PIN) unpin_user_page() Testing: * I've done some overall kernel testing (LTP, and a few other goodies), and some directed testing to exercise some of the changes. And as you can see, gup_benchmark is enhanced to exercise this. Basically, I've been able to runtime test the core get_user_pages() and pin_user_pages() and related routines, but not so much on several of the call sites--but those are generally just a couple of lines changed, each.

So I'd love it if, in particular, the Infiniband and PowerPC folks could do a smoke test of this series for me.

mm: introduce a general RCU get_user_pages_fast() This series implements general forms of get_user_pages_fast and __get_user_pages_fast in core code and activates them for arm and arm64. These are required for Transparent HugePages to function correctly, as a futex on a THP tail will otherwise result in an infinite loop (due to the core implementation of __get_user_pages_fast always returning 0). Unfortunately, a futex on THP tail can be quite common for certain workloads; thus THP is unreliable without a __get_user_pages_fast implementation. This series may also be beneficial for direct-IO heavy workloads and certain KVM workloads. This patch (of 6): get_user_pages_fast() attempts to pin user pages by walking the page tables directly and avoids taking locks. Thus the walker needs to be protected from page table pages being freed from under it, and needs to block any THP splits. One way to achieve this is to have the walker disable interrupts, and rely on IPIs from the TLB flushing code blocking before the page table pages are freed. On some platforms we have hardware broadcast of TLB invalidations, thus the TLB flushing code doesn't necessarily need to broadcast IPIs; and spuriously broadcasting IPIs can hurt system performance if done too often. This problem has been solved on PowerPC and Sparc by batching up page table pages belonging to more than one mm_user, then scheduling an rcu_sched callback to free the pages. This RCU page table free logic has been promoted to core code and is activated when one enables HAVE_RCU_TABLE_FREE. Unfortunately, these architectures implement their own get_user_pages_fast routines. The RCU page table free logic coupled with an IPI broadcast on THP split (which is a rare event), allows one to protect a page table walker by merely disabling the interrupts during the walk. This patch provides a general RCU implementation of get_user_pages_fast that can be used by architectures that perform hardware broadcast of TLB invalidations. It is based heavily on the PowerPC implementation by Nick Piggin.

mm: drop tail page refcounting Tail page refcounting is utterly complicated and painful to support. It uses ->_mapcount on tail pages to store how many times this page is pinned. get_page() bumps ->_mapcount on tail page in addition to ->_count on head. This information is required by split_huge_page() to be able to distribute pins from head of compound page to tails during the split. We will need ->_mapcount to account PTE mappings of subpages of the compound page. We eliminate need in current meaning of ->_mapcount in tail pages by forbidding split entirely if the page is pinned. The only user of tail page refcounting is THP which is marked BROKEN for now. Let's drop all this mess. It makes get_page() and put_page() much simpler. Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

mm, gup: ensure real head page is ref-counted when using hugepages When speculatively taking references to a hugepage using page_cache_add_speculative() in gup_huge_pmd(), it is assumed that the page returned by pmd_page() is the head page. Although normally true, this assumption doesn't hold when the hugepage comprises of successive page table entries such as when using contiguous bit on arm64 at PTE or PMD levels. This can be addressed by ensuring that the page passed to page_cache_add_speculative() is the real head or by de-referencing the head page within the function.

mm/gup: factor out duplicate code from four routines Patch series "mm/gup: prereqs to track dma-pinned pages: FOLL_PIN", v12. Overview: This is a prerequisite to solving the problem of proper interactions between file-backed pages, and [R]DMA activities, as discussed in [1], [2], [3], and in a remarkable number of email threads since about 2017. :) A new internal gup flag, FOLL_PIN is introduced, and thoroughly documented in the last patch's Documentation/vm/pin_user_pages.rst. I believe that this will provide a good starting point for doing the layout lease work that Ira Weiny has been working on. That's because these new wrapper functions provide a clean, constrained, systematically named set of functionality that, again, is required in order to even know if a page is "dma-pinned". In contrast to earlier approaches, the page tracking can be incrementally applied to the kernel call sites that, until now, have been simply calling get_user_pages() ("gup"). In other words, opt-in by changing from this: get_user_pages() (sets FOLL_GET) put_page() to this: pin_user_pages() (sets FOLL_PIN) unpin_user_page() Testing: * I've done some overall kernel testing (LTP, and a few other goodies), and some directed testing to exercise some of the changes. And as you can see, gup_benchmark is enhanced to exercise this. Basically, I've been able to runtime test the core get_user_pages() and pin_user_pages() and related routines, but not so much on several of the call sites--but those are generally just a couple of lines changed, each. Not much of the kernel is actually using this, which on one hand reduces risk quite a lot. But on the other hand, testing coverage is low. So I'd love it if, in particular, the Infiniband and PowerPC folks could do a smoke test of this series for me. Runtime testing for the call sites so far is pretty light: * io_uring: Some directed tests from liburing exercise this, and they pass. * process_vm_access.c: A small directed test passes. * gup_benchmark: the enhanced version hits the new gup.c code, and passes. * infiniband: Ran rdma-core tests: rdma-core/build/bin/run_tests.py * VFIO: compiles (I'm vowing to set up a run time test soon, but it's not ready just yet) * powerpc: it compiles... * drm/via: compiles... * goldfish: compiles... * net/xdp: compiles... * media/v4l2: compiles...

mm/gup: track FOLL_PIN pages Add tracking of pages that were pinned via FOLL_PIN. This tracking is implemented via overloading of page->_refcount: pins are added by adding GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS (1024) to the refcount. This provides a fuzzy indication of pinning, and it can have false positives (and that's OK). Please see the pre-existing Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst for details. As mentioned in pin_user_pages.rst, callers who effectively set FOLL_PIN (typically via pin_user_pages*()) are required to ultimately free such pages via unpin_user_page(). Please also note the limitation, discussed in pin_user_pages.rst under the "TODO: for 1GB and larger huge pages" section. (That limitation will be removed in a following patch.) The effect of a FOLL_PIN flag is similar to that of FOLL_GET, and may be thought of as "FOLL_GET for DIO and/or RDMA use". Pages that have been pinned via FOLL_PIN are identifiable via a new function call: bool page_maybe_dma_pinned(struct page *page); What to do in response to encountering such a page, is left to later patchsets. There is discussion about this in [1], [2], [3], and [4]. This also changes a BUG_ON(), to a WARN_ON(), in follow_page_mask().

mm: introduce a general RCU get_user_pages_fast() This series implements general forms of get_user_pages_fast and __get_user_pages_fast in core code and activates them for arm and arm64. These are required for Transparent HugePages to function correctly, as a futex on a THP tail will otherwise result in an infinite loop (due to the core implementation of __get_user_pages_fast always returning 0). Unfortunately, a futex on THP tail can be quite common for certain workloads; thus THP is unreliable without a __get_user_pages_fast implementation. This series may also be beneficial for direct-IO heavy workloads and certain KVM workloads. This patch (of 6): get_user_pages_fast() attempts to pin user pages by walking the page tables directly and avoids taking locks. Thus the walker needs to be protected from page table pages being freed from under it, and needs to block any THP splits. One way to achieve this is to have the walker disable interrupts, and rely on IPIs from the TLB flushing code blocking before the page table pages are freed. On some platforms we have hardware broadcast of TLB invalidations, thus the TLB flushing code doesn't necessarily need to broadcast IPIs; and spuriously broadcasting IPIs can hurt system performance if done too often. This problem has been solved on PowerPC and Sparc by batching up page table pages belonging to more than one mm_user, then scheduling an rcu_sched callback to free the pages. This RCU page table free logic has been promoted to core code and is activated when one enables HAVE_RCU_TABLE_FREE. Unfortunately, these architectures implement their own get_user_pages_fast routines. The RCU page table free logic coupled with an IPI broadcast on THP split (which is a rare event), allows one to protect a page table walker by merely disabling the interrupts during the walk. This patch provides a general RCU implementation of get_user_pages_fast that can be used by architectures that perform hardware broadcast of TLB invalidations. It is based heavily on the PowerPC implementation by Nick Piggin.

mm: thp: check pmd migration entry in common path When THP migration is being used, memory management code needs to handle pmd migration entries properly. This patch uses !pmd_present() or is_swap_pmd() (depending on whether pmd_none() needs separate code or not) to check pmd migration entries at the places where a pmd entry is present. Since pmd-related code uses split_huge_page(), split_huge_pmd(), pmd_trans_huge(), pmd_trans_unstable(), or pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad(), this patch: 1. adds pmd migration entry split code in split_huge_pmd(), 2. takes care of pmd migration entries whenever pmd_trans_huge() is present, 3. makes pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() pmd migration entry aware. Since split_huge_page() uses split_huge_pmd() and pmd_trans_unstable() is equivalent to pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad(), we do not change them. Until this commit, a pmd entry should be: 1. pointing to a pte page, 2. is_swap_pmd(), 3. pmd_trans_huge(), 4. pmd_devmap(), or 5. pmd_none().

mm: introduce a general RCU get_user_pages_fast() This series implements general forms of get_user_pages_fast and __get_user_pages_fast in core code and activates them for arm and arm64. These are required for Transparent HugePages to function correctly, as a futex on a THP tail will otherwise result in an infinite loop (due to the core implementation of __get_user_pages_fast always returning 0). Unfortunately, a futex on THP tail can be quite common for certain workloads; thus THP is unreliable without a __get_user_pages_fast implementation. This series may also be beneficial for direct-IO heavy workloads and certain KVM workloads. This patch (of 6): get_user_pages_fast() attempts to pin user pages by walking the page tables directly and avoids taking locks. Thus the walker needs to be protected from page table pages being freed from under it, and needs to block any THP splits. One way to achieve this is to have the walker disable interrupts, and rely on IPIs from the TLB flushing code blocking before the page table pages are freed. On some platforms we have hardware broadcast of TLB invalidations, thus the TLB flushing code doesn't necessarily need to broadcast IPIs; and spuriously broadcasting IPIs can hurt system performance if done too often. This problem has been solved on PowerPC and Sparc by batching up page table pages belonging to more than one mm_user, then scheduling an rcu_sched callback to free the pages. This RCU page table free logic has been promoted to core code and is activated when one enables HAVE_RCU_TABLE_FREE. Unfortunately, these architectures implement their own get_user_pages_fast routines. The RCU page table free logic coupled with an IPI broadcast on THP split (which is a rare event), allows one to protect a page table walker by merely disabling the interrupts during the walk. This patch provides a general RCU implementation of get_user_pages_fast that can be used by architectures that perform hardware broadcast of TLB invalidations. It is based heavily on the PowerPC implementation by Nick Piggin.

mm: introduce a general RCU get_user_pages_fast() This series implements general forms of get_user_pages_fast and __get_user_pages_fast in core code and activates them for arm and arm64. These are required for Transparent HugePages to function correctly, as a futex on a THP tail will otherwise result in an infinite loop (due to the core implementation of __get_user_pages_fast always returning 0). Unfortunately, a futex on THP tail can be quite common for certain workloads; thus THP is unreliable without a __get_user_pages_fast implementation. This series may also be beneficial for direct-IO heavy workloads and certain KVM workloads. This patch (of 6): get_user_pages_fast() attempts to pin user pages by walking the page tables directly and avoids taking locks. Thus the walker needs to be protected from page table pages being freed from under it, and needs to block any THP splits. One way to achieve this is to have the walker disable interrupts, and rely on IPIs from the TLB flushing code blocking before the page table pages are freed. On some platforms we have hardware broadcast of TLB invalidations, thus the TLB flushing code doesn't necessarily need to broadcast IPIs; and spuriously broadcasting IPIs can hurt system performance if done too often. This problem has been solved on PowerPC and Sparc by batching up page table pages belonging to more than one mm_user, then scheduling an rcu_sched callback to free the pages. This RCU page table free logic has been promoted to core code and is activated when one enables HAVE_RCU_TABLE_FREE. Unfortunately, these architectures implement their own get_user_pages_fast routines. The RCU page table free logic coupled with an IPI broadcast on THP split (which is a rare event), allows one to protect a page table walker by merely disabling the interrupts during the walk.

mm/gup: introduce pin_user_pages*() and FOLL_PIN Introduce pin_user_pages*() variations of get_user_pages*() calls, and also pin_longterm_pages*() variations. For now, these are placeholder calls, until the various call sites are converted to use the correct get_user_pages*() or pin_user_pages*() API. These variants will eventually all set FOLL_PIN, which is also introduced, and thoroughly documented. pin_user_pages() pin_user_pages_remote() pin_user_pages_fast() All pages that are pinned via the above calls, must be unpinned via put_user_page(). The underlying rules are: * FOLL_PIN is a gup-internal flag, so the call sites should not directly set it. That behavior is enforced with assertions. * Call sites that want to indicate that they are going to do DirectIO ("DIO") or something with similar characteristics, should call a get_user_pages()-like wrapper call that sets FOLL_PIN. These wrappers will: * Start with "pin_user_pages" instead of "get_user_pages". That makes it easy to find and audit the call sites. * Set FOLL_PIN * For pages that are received via FOLL_PIN, those pages must be returned via put_user_page(). Thanks to Jan Kara and Vlastimil Babka for explaining the 4 cases in this documentation. (I've reworded it and expanded upon it.)

mm/gup: refactor and de-duplicate gup_fast() code There were two nearly identical sets of code for gup_fast() style of walking the page tables with interrupts disabled. This has lead to the usual maintenance problems that arise from having duplicated code. There is already a core internal routine in gup.c for gup_fast(), so just enhance it very slightly: allow skipping the fall-back to "slow" (regular) get_user_pages(), via the new FOLL_FAST_ONLY flag. Then, just call internal_get_user_pages_fast() from __get_user_pages_fast(), and adjust the API to match pre-existing API behavior. There is a change in behavior from this refactoring: the nested form of interrupt disabling is used in all gup_fast() variants now. That's because there is only one place that interrupt disabling for page walking is done, and so the safer form is required. This should, if anything, eliminate possible (rare) bugs, because the non-nested form of enabling interrupts was fragile at best.

This, combined with the fact that get_user_pages_fast() falls back to "slow gup", which *does* accept FOLL_FORCE, leads to an odd situation: if you need FOLL_FORCE, you cannot call get_user_pages_fast(). There does not appear to be any reason for filtering out FOLL_FORCE. There is nothing in the _fast() implementation that requires that we avoid writing to the pages. So it appears to have been an oversight. Fix by allowing FOLL_FORCE to be set for get_user_pages_fast().

Remove 'type' argument from access_ok() function Nobody has actually used the type (VERIFY_READ vs VERIFY_WRITE) argument of the user address range verification function since we got rid of the old racy i386-only code to walk page tables by hand. It existed because the original 80386 would not honor the write protect bit when in kernel mode, so you had to do COW by hand before doing any user access. But we haven't supported that in a long time, and these days the 'type' argument is a purely historical artifact. A discussion about extending 'user_access_begin()' to do the range checking resulted this patch, because there is no way we're going to move the old VERIFY_xyz interface to that model. And it's best done at the end of the merge window when I've done most of my merges, so let's just get this done once and for all. This patch was mostly done with a sed-script, with manual fix-ups for the cases that weren't of the trivial 'access_ok(VERIFY_xyz' form. There were a couple of notable cases: - csky still had the old "verify_area()" name as an alias. - the iter_iov code had magical hardcoded knowledge of the actual values of VERIFY_{READ,WRITE} (not that they mattered, since nothing really used it) - microblaze used the type argument for a debug printout but other than those oddities this should be a total no-op patch. I tried to fix up all architectures, did fairly extensive grepping for access_ok() uses, and the changes are trivial, but I may have missed something. Any missed conversion should be trivially fixable, though. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

gup: document and work around "COW can break either way" issue Doing a "get_user_pages()" on a copy-on-write page for reading can be ambiguous: the page can be COW'ed at any time afterwards, and the direction of a COW event isn't defined. Yes, whoever writes to it will generally do the COW, but if the thread that did the get_user_pages() unmapped the page before the write (and that could happen due to memory pressure in addition to any outright action), the writer could also just take over the old page instead. End result: the get_user_pages() call might result in a page pointer that is no longer associated with the original VM, and is associated with - and controlled by - another VM having taken it over instead. So when doing a get_user_pages() on a COW mapping, the only really safe thing to do would be to break the COW when getting the page, even when only getting it for reading. At the same time, some users simply don't even care. For example, the perf code wants to look up the page not because it cares about the page, but because the code simply wants to look up the physical address of the access for informational purposes, and doesn't really care about races when a page might be unmapped and remapped elsewhere. This adds logic to force a COW event by setting FOLL_WRITE on any copy-on-write mapping when FOLL_GET (or FOLL_PIN) is used to get a page pointer as a result. The current semantics end up being: - __get_user_pages_fast(): no change. If you don't ask for a write, you won't break COW. You'd better know what you're doing. - get_user_pages_fast(): the fast-case "look it up in the page tables without anything getting mmap_sem" now refuses to follow a read-only page, since it might need COW breaking. Which happens in the slow path - the fast path doesn't know if the memory might be COW or not. - get_user_pages() (including the slow-path fallback for gup_fast()): for a COW mapping, turn on FOLL_WRITE for FOLL_GET/FOLL_PIN, with very similar semantics to FOLL_FORCE. If it turns out that we want finer granularity (ie "only break COW when it might actually matter" - things like the zero page are special and don't need to be broken) we might need to push these semantics deeper into the lookup fault path. So if people care enough, it's possible that we might end up adding a new internal FOLL_BREAK_COW flag to go with the internal FOLL_COW flag we already have for tracking "I had a COW". Alternatively, if it turns out that different callers might want to explicitly control the forced COW break behavior, we might even want to make such a flag visible to the users of get_user_pages() instead of using the above default semantics. But for now, this is mostly commentary on the issue (this commit message being a lot bigger than the patch, and that patch in turn is almost all comments), with that minimal "enable COW breaking early" logic using the existing FOLL_WRITE behavior. [ It might be worth noting that we've always had this ambiguity, and it could arguably be seen as a user-space issue. You only get private COW mappings that could break either way in situations where user space is doing cooperative things (ie fork() before an execve() etc), but it _is_ surprising and very subtle, and fork() is supposed to give you independent address spaces. So let's treat this as a kernel issue and make the semantics of get_user_pages() easier to understand. Note that obviously a true shared mapping will still get a page that can change under us, so this does _not_ mean that get_user_pages() somehow returns any "stable" page ] Reported-by: Jann Horn <jannh@google.com> Tested-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Acked-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Acked-by: Kirill Shutemov <kirill@shutemov.name> Acked-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Cc: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange@redhat.com> Cc: Matthew Wilcox <willy@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

mm/gup: refactor and de-duplicate gup_fast() code There were two nearly identical sets of code for gup_fast() style of walking the page tables with interrupts disabled. This has lead to the usual maintenance problems that arise from having duplicated code. There is already a core internal routine in gup.c for gup_fast(), so just enhance it very slightly: allow skipping the fall-back to "slow" (regular) get_user_pages(), via the new FOLL_FAST_ONLY flag. Then, just call internal_get_user_pages_fast() from __get_user_pages_fast(), and adjust the API to match pre-existing API behavior. There is a change in behavior from this refactoring: the nested form of interrupt disabling is used in all gup_fast() variants now. That's because there is only one place that interrupt disabling for page walking is done, and so the safer form is required. This should, if anything, eliminate possible (rare) bugs, because the non-nested form of enabling interrupts was fragile at best.

mm: introduce a general RCU get_user_pages_fast() This series implements general forms of get_user_pages_fast and __get_user_pages_fast in core code and activates them for arm and arm64. These are required for Transparent HugePages to function correctly, as a futex on a THP tail will otherwise result in an infinite loop (due to the core implementation of __get_user_pages_fast always returning 0). Unfortunately, a futex on THP tail can be quite common for certain workloads; thus THP is unreliable without a __get_user_pages_fast implementation. This series may also be beneficial for direct-IO heavy workloads and certain KVM workloads. This patch (of 6): get_user_pages_fast() attempts to pin user pages by walking the page tables directly and avoids taking locks. Thus the walker needs to be protected from page table pages being freed from under it, and needs to block any THP splits. One way to achieve this is to have the walker disable interrupts, and rely on IPIs from the TLB flushing code blocking before the page table pages are freed. On some platforms we have hardware broadcast of TLB invalidations, thus the TLB flushing code doesn't necessarily need to broadcast IPIs; and spuriously broadcasting IPIs can hurt system performance if done too often. This problem has been solved on PowerPC and Sparc by batching up page table pages belonging to more than one mm_user, then scheduling an rcu_sched callback to free the pages. This RCU page table free logic has been promoted to core code and is activated when one enables HAVE_RCU_TABLE_FREE. Unfortunately, these architectures implement their own get_user_pages_fast routines. The RCU page table free logic coupled with an IPI broadcast on THP split (which is a rare event), allows one to protect a page table walker by merely disabling the interrupts during the walk. This patch provides a general RCU implementation of get_user_pages_fast that can be used by architectures that perform hardware broadcast of TLB invalidations. It is based heavily on the PowerPC implementation by Nick Piggin.

mm: introduce a general RCU get_user_pages_fast() This series implements general forms of get_user_pages_fast and __get_user_pages_fast in core code and activates them for arm and arm64. These are required for Transparent HugePages to function correctly, as a futex on a THP tail will otherwise result in an infinite loop (due to the core implementation of __get_user_pages_fast always returning 0). Unfortunately, a futex on THP tail can be quite common for certain workloads; thus THP is unreliable without a __get_user_pages_fast implementation. This series may also be beneficial for direct-IO heavy workloads and certain KVM workloads. This patch (of 6): get_user_pages_fast() attempts to pin user pages by walking the page tables directly and avoids taking locks. Thus the walker needs to be protected from page table pages being freed from under it, and needs to block any THP splits. One way to achieve this is to have the walker disable interrupts, and rely on IPIs from the TLB flushing code blocking before the page table pages are freed. On some platforms we have hardware broadcast of TLB invalidations, thus the TLB flushing code doesn't necessarily need to broadcast IPIs; and spuriously broadcasting IPIs can hurt system performance if done too often. This problem has been solved on PowerPC and Sparc by batching up page table pages belonging to more than one mm_user, then scheduling an rcu_sched callback to free the pages. This RCU page table free logic has been promoted to core code and is activated when one enables HAVE_RCU_TABLE_FREE. Unfortunately, these architectures implement their own get_user_pages_fast routines. The RCU page table free logic coupled with an IPI broadcast on THP split (which is a rare event), allows one to protect a page table walker by merely disabling the interrupts during the walk. This patch provides a general RCU implementation of get_user_pages_fast that can be used by architectures that perform hardware broadcast of TLB invalidations.

mm/gup: introduce pin_user_pages*() and FOLL_PIN Introduce pin_user_pages*() variations of get_user_pages*() calls, and also pin_longterm_pages*() variations. For now, these are placeholder calls, until the various call sites are converted to use the correct get_user_pages*() or pin_user_pages*() API. These variants will eventually all set FOLL_PIN, which is also introduced, and thoroughly documented. pin_user_pages() pin_user_pages_remote() pin_user_pages_fast() All pages that are pinned via the above calls, must be unpinned via put_user_page(). The underlying rules are: * FOLL_PIN is a gup-internal flag, so the call sites should not directly set it. That behavior is enforced with assertions. * Call sites that want to indicate that they are going to do DirectIO ("DIO") or something with similar characteristics, should call a get_user_pages()-like wrapper call that sets FOLL_PIN. These wrappers will: * Start with "pin_user_pages" instead of "get_user_pages". That makes it easy to find and audit the call sites. * Set FOLL_PIN * For pages that are received via FOLL_PIN, those pages must be returned via put_user_page(). Thanks to Jan Kara and Vlastimil Babka for explaining the 4 cases in this documentation. (I've reworded it and expanded upon it.)

There is a change in behavior from this refactoring: the nested form of interrupt disabling is used in all gup_fast() variants now. That's because there is only one place that interrupt disabling for page walking is done, and so the safer form is required. This should, if anything, eliminate possible (rare) bugs, because the non-nested form of enabling interrupts was fragile at best.

/**
* get_user_pages_fast() - pin user pages in memory
mm/gup: track FOLL_PIN pages Add tracking of pages that were pinned via FOLL_PIN. This tracking is implemented via overloading of page->_refcount: pins are added by adding GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS (1024) to the refcount. This provides a fuzzy indication of pinning, and it can have false positives (and that's OK). Please see the pre-existing Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst for details. As mentioned in pin_user_pages.rst, callers who effectively set FOLL_PIN (typically via pin_user_pages*()) are required to ultimately free such pages via unpin_user_page(). Please also note the limitation, discussed in pin_user_pages.rst under the "TODO: for 1GB and larger huge pages" section. (That limitation will be removed in a following patch.) The effect of a FOLL_PIN flag is similar to that of FOLL_GET, and may be thought of as "FOLL_GET for DIO and/or RDMA use". Pages that have been pinned via FOLL_PIN are identifiable via a new function call: bool page_maybe_dma_pinned(struct page *page); What to do in response to encountering such a page, is left to later patchsets. There is discussion about this in [1], [2], [3], and [4]. This also changes a BUG_ON(), to a WARN_ON(), in follow_page_mask().

mm/gup: track FOLL_PIN pages Add tracking of pages that were pinned via FOLL_PIN. This tracking is implemented via overloading of page->_refcount: pins are added by adding GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS (1024) to the refcount. This provides a fuzzy indication of pinning, and it can have false positives (and that's OK). Please see the pre-existing Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst for details. As mentioned in pin_user_pages.rst, callers who effectively set FOLL_PIN (typically via pin_user_pages*()) are required to ultimately free such pages via unpin_user_page(). Please also note the limitation, discussed in pin_user_pages.rst under the "TODO: for 1GB and larger huge pages" section. (That limitation will be removed in a following patch.) The effect of a FOLL_PIN flag is similar to that of FOLL_GET, and may be thought of as "FOLL_GET for DIO and/or RDMA use". Pages that have been pinned via FOLL_PIN are identifiable via a new function call: bool page_maybe_dma_pinned(struct page *page); What to do in response to encountering such a page, is left to later patchsets. There is discussion about this in [1], [2], [3], and [4]. This also changes a BUG_ON(), to a WARN_ON(), in follow_page_mask().

* @tsk: the task_struct to use for page fault accounting, or
* NULL if faults are not to be recorded.
* @mm: mm_struct of target mm
* @start: starting user address
* @nr_pages: number of pages from start to pin
* @gup_flags: flags modifying lookup behaviour
* @pages: array that receives pointers to the pages pinned.
* Should be at least nr_pages long. Or NULL, if caller
* only intends to ensure the pages are faulted in.
* @vmas: array of pointers to vmas corresponding to each page.
* Or NULL if the caller does not require them.
* @locked: pointer to lock flag indicating whether lock is held and
* subsequently whether VM_FAULT_RETRY functionality can be
* utilised. Lock must initially be held.
*
* Nearly the same as get_user_pages_remote(), except that FOLL_PIN is set. See
* get_user_pages_remote() for documentation on the function arguments, because
* the arguments here are identical.
*
* FOLL_PIN means that the pages must be released via unpin_user_page(). Please

mm/gup: introduce pin_user_pages*() and FOLL_PIN Introduce pin_user_pages*() variations of get_user_pages*() calls, and also pin_longterm_pages*() variations. For now, these are placeholder calls, until the various call sites are converted to use the correct get_user_pages*() or pin_user_pages*() API. These variants will eventually all set FOLL_PIN, which is also introduced, and thoroughly documented. pin_user_pages() pin_user_pages_remote() pin_user_pages_fast() All pages that are pinned via the above calls, must be unpinned via put_user_page(). The underlying rules are: * FOLL_PIN is a gup-internal flag, so the call sites should not directly set it. That behavior is enforced with assertions. * Call sites that want to indicate that they are going to do DirectIO ("DIO") or something with similar characteristics, should call a get_user_pages()-like wrapper call that sets FOLL_PIN. These wrappers will: * Start with "pin_user_pages" instead of "get_user_pages". That makes it easy to find and audit the call sites. * Set FOLL_PIN * For pages that are received via FOLL_PIN, those pages must be returned via put_user_page(). Thanks to Jan Kara and Vlastimil Babka for explaining the 4 cases in this documentation. (I've reworded it and expanded upon it.)

mm/gup: introduce pin_user_pages*() and FOLL_PIN Introduce pin_user_pages*() variations of get_user_pages*() calls, and also pin_longterm_pages*() variations. For now, these are placeholder calls, until the various call sites are converted to use the correct get_user_pages*() or pin_user_pages*() API. These variants will eventually all set FOLL_PIN, which is also introduced, and thoroughly documented. pin_user_pages() pin_user_pages_remote() pin_user_pages_fast() All pages that are pinned via the above calls, must be unpinned via put_user_page(). The underlying rules are: * FOLL_PIN is a gup-internal flag, so the call sites should not directly set it. That behavior is enforced with assertions. * Call sites that want to indicate that they are going to do DirectIO ("DIO") or something with similar characteristics, should call a get_user_pages()-like wrapper call that sets FOLL_PIN. These wrappers will: * Start with "pin_user_pages" instead of "get_user_pages". That makes it easy to find and audit the call sites. * Set FOLL_PIN * For pages that are received via FOLL_PIN, those pages must be returned via put_user_page(). Thanks to Jan Kara and Vlastimil Babka for explaining the 4 cases in this documentation. (I've reworded it and expanded upon it.)
