MADVISE_WILLNEED has always been a noop for DAX (formerly XIP) mappings. Unfortunately madvise_willneed() doesn't communicate this information properly to the generic madvise syscall implementation. The calling convention is quite subtle there. madvise_vma() is supposed to either return an error or update &prev otherwise the main loop will never advance to the next vma and it will keep looping for ever without a way to get out of the kernel. It seems this has been broken since introduction. Nobody has noticed because nobody seems to be using MADVISE_WILLNEED on these DAX mappings.

While the defense-in-depth RLIMIT_STACK limit on setuid processes was protected against races from other threads calling setrlimit(), I missed protecting it against races from external processes calling prlimit().

V4L2 memory registrations are incompatible with filesystem-dax that needs the ability to revoke dma access to a mapping at will, or otherwise allow the kernel to wait for completion of DMA. The filesystem-dax implementation breaks the traditional solution of truncate of active file backed mappings since there is no page-cache page we can orphan to sustain ongoing DMA. If v4l2 wants to support long lived DMA mappings it needs to arrange to hold a file lease or use some other mechanism so that the kernel can coordinate revoking DMA access when the filesystem needs to truncate mappings.

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).

Similar to how device-dax enforces that the 'address', 'offset', and 'len' parameters to mmap() be aligned to the device's fundamental alignment, the same constraints apply to munmap(). Implement ->split() to fail munmap calls that violate the alignment constraint. Otherwise, we later fail VM_BUG_ON checks in the unmap_page_range() path with crash signatures of the form: vma ffff8800b60c8a88 start 00007f88c0000000 end 00007f88c0e00000 next (null) prev (null) mm ffff8800b61150c0 prot 8000000000000027 anon_vma (null) vm_ops ffffffffa0091240 pgoff 0 file ffff8800b638ef80 private_data (null) flags: 0x380000fb(read|write|shared|mayread|maywrite|mayexec|mayshare|softdirty|mixedmap|hugepage) ------------[ cut here ]------------ kernel BUG at mm/huge_memory.c:2014!

Patch series "device-dax: fix unaligned munmap handling" When device-dax is operating in huge-page mode we want it to behave like hugetlbfs and fail attempts to split vmas into unaligned ranges. It would be messy to teach the munmap path about device-dax alignment constraints in the same (hstate) way that hugetlbfs communicates this constraint. Instead, these patches introduce a new ->split() vm operation. This patch (of 2): The device-dax interface has similar constraints as hugetlbfs in that it requires the munmap path to unmap in huge page aligned units. Rather than add more custom vma handling code in __split_vma() introduce a new vm operation to perform this vma specific check.

In response to compile breakage introduced by a series that added the pud_write helper to x86, Stephen notes: did you consider using the other paradigm: In arch include files: #define pud_write pud_write static inline int pud_write(pud_t pud) ..... Then in include/asm-generic/pgtable.h: #ifndef pud_write tatic inline int pud_write(pud_t pud) { .... } #endif If you had, then the powerpc code would have worked ... ;-) and many of the other interfaces in include/asm-generic/pgtable.h are protected that way ... Given that some architecture already define pmd_write() as a macro, it's a net reduction to drop the definition of __HAVE_ARCH_PMD_WRITE.

Currently only get_user_pages_fast() can safely handle the writable gup case due to its use of pud_access_permitted() to check whether the pud entry is writable. In the gup slow path pud_write() is used instead of pud_access_permitted() and to date it has been unimplemented, just calls BUG_ON(). kernel BUG at ./include/linux/hugetlb.h:244!

However, this implies that the gup-slow-path check is missing the extra checks that the gup-fast-path performs with pud_access_permitted. Later patches will align all checks to use the 'access_permitted' helper if the architecture provides it. Note that the generic 'access_permitted' helper fallback is the simple _PAGE_RW check on architectures that do not define the 'access_permitted' helper(s).

If the call __alloc_contig_migrate_range() in alloc_contig_range returns -EBUSY, processing continues so that test_pages_isolated() is called where there is a tracepoint to identify the busy pages. However, it is possible for busy pages to become available between the calls to these two routines. In this case, the range of pages may be allocated. Unfortunately, the original return code (ret == -EBUSY) is still set and returned to the caller. Therefore, the caller believes the pages were not allocated and they are leaked. Update the comment to indicate that allocation is still possible even if __alloc_contig_migrate_range returns -EBUSY. Also, clear return code in this case so that it is not accidentally used or returned to caller.

tlb_gather_mmu(&tlb, mm, 0, -1) means gathering the whole virtual memory space. In this case, tlb->fullmm is true. Some archs like arm64 doesn't flush TLB when tlb->fullmm is true: commit 5a7862e8 ("arm64: tlbflush: avoid flushing when fullmm == 1"). Which causes leaking of tlb entries. Will clarifies his patch: "Basically, we tag each address space with an ASID (PCID on x86) which is resident in the TLB. This means we can elide TLB invalidation when pulling down a full mm because we won't ever assign that ASID to another mm without doing TLB invalidation elsewhere (which actually just nukes the whole TLB). I think that means that we could potentially not fault on a kernel uaccess, because we could hit in the TLB" There could be a window between complete_signal() sending IPI to other cores and all threads sharing this mm are really kicked off from cores. In this window, the oom reaper may calls tlb_flush_mmu_tlbonly() to flush TLB then frees pages. However, due to the above problem, the TLB entries are not really flushed on arm64. Other threads are possible to access these pages through TLB entries. Moreover, a copy_to_user() can also write to these pages without generating page fault, causes use-after-free bugs. This patch gathers each vma instead of gathering full vm space. In this case tlb->fullmm is not true. The behavior of oom reaper become similar to munmapping before do_exit, which should be safe for all archs.

Michal Hocko authored
drain_all_pages backs off when called from a kworker context since commit 0ccce3b9 ("mm, page_alloc: drain per-cpu pages from workqueue context") because the original IPI based pcp draining has been replaced by a WQ based one and the check wanted to prevent from recursion and inter workers dependencies. This has made some sense at the time because the system WQ has been used and one worker holding the lock could be blocked while waiting for new workers to emerge which can be a problem under OOM conditions. Since then commit ce612879 ("mm: move pcp and lru-pcp draining into single wq") has moved draining to a dedicated (mm_percpu_wq) WQ with a rescuer so we shouldn't depend on any other WQ activity to make a forward progress so calling drain_all_pages from a worker context is safe as long as this doesn't happen from mm_percpu_wq itself which is not the case because all workers are required to _not_ depend on any MM locks. Why is this a problem in the first place? ACPI driven memory hot-remove (acpi_device_hotplug) is executed from the worker context. We end up calling __offline_pages to free all the pages and that requires both lru_add_drain_all_cpuslocked and drain_all_pages to do their job otherwise we can have dangling pages on pcp lists and fail the offline operation (__test_page_isolated_in_pageblock would see a page with 0 ref count but without PageBuddy set). Fix the issue by removing the worker check in drain_all_pages. lru_add_drain_all_cpuslocked doesn't have this restriction so it works as expected.

This just changes the file to report them as zero, although maybe even that could be removed. I checked, and at least procps doesn't actually seem to parse the 'stack' file at all. And since the file doesn't necessarily even exist (it requires CONFIG_STACKTRACE), possibly other tools don't really use it either. That said, in case somebody parses it with tools, just having that zero there should keep such tools happy. Signed-off-by:

This is a pure automated search-and-replace of the internal kernel superblock flags. The s_flags are now called SB_*, with the names and the values for the moment mirroring the MS_* flags that they're equivalent to.

Currently we make page table entries dirty all the time regardless of access type and don't even consider if the mapping is write-protected. The reasoning is that we don't really need dirty tracking on THP and making the entry dirty upfront may save some time on first write to the page. Unfortunately, such approach may result in false-positive can_follow_write_pmd() for huge zero page or read-only shmem file. Let's only make page dirty only if we about to write to the page anyway (as we do for small pages). I've restructured the code to make entry dirty inside maybe_p[mu]d_mkwrite(). It also takes into account if the vma is write-protected. Signed-off-by:

Detect if we are returning to usermode via the normal kernel exit paths but the saved PSR value indicates that we are in kernel mode. This could occur due to corrupted stack state, which has been observed with "ftracetest". This ensures that we catch the problem case before we get to user code.

Pull powerpc fixes from Michael Ellerman: "A small batch of fixes, about 50% tagged for stable and the rest for recently merged code. There's one more fix for the >128T handling on hash. Once a process had requested a single mmap above 128T we would then always search above 128T. The correct behaviour is to consider the hint address in isolation for each mmap request. Then a couple of fixes for the IMC PMU, a missing EXPORT_SYMBOL in VAS, a fix for STRICT_KERNEL_RWX on 32-bit, and a fix to correctly identify P9 DD2.1 but in code that is currently not used by default.
