hugetlbfs page faults can race with truncate and hole punch operations. Current code in the page fault path attempts to handle this by 'backing out' operations if we encounter the race. One obvious omission in the current code is removing a page newly added to the page cache. This is pretty straight forward to address, but there is a more subtle and difficult issue of backing out hugetlb reservations. To handle this correctly, the 'reservation state' before page allocation needs to be noted so that it can be properly backed out. There are four distinct possibilities for reservation state: shared/reserved, shared/no-resv, private/reserved and private/no-resv. Backing out a reservation may require memory allocation which could fail so that needs to be taken into account as well. Instead of writing the required complicated code for this rare occurrence, just eliminate the race. i_mmap_rwsem is now held in read mode for the duration of page fault processing. Hold i_mmap_rwsem in write mode when modifying i_size. In this way, truncation can not proceed when page faults are being processed. In addition, i_size will not change during fault processing so a single check can be made to ensure faults are not beyond (proposed) end of file. Faults can still race with hole punch, but that race is handled by existing code and the use of hugetlb_fault_mutex. With this modification, checks for races with truncation in the page fault path can be simplified and removed. remove_inode_hugepages no longer needs to take hugetlb_fault_mutex in the case of truncation. Comments are expanded to explain reasoning behind locking. Signed-off-by:

Patch series "hugetlbfs: use i_mmap_rwsem for more synchronization", v2. While discussing the issue with huge_pte_offset [1], I remembered that there were more outstanding hugetlb races. These issues are: 1) For shared pmds, huge PTE pointers returned by huge_pte_alloc can become invalid via a call to huge_pmd_unshare by another thread. 2) hugetlbfs page faults can race with truncation causing invalid global reserve counts and state. A previous attempt was made to use i_mmap_rwsem in this manner as described at [2]. However, those patches were reverted starting with [3] due to locking issues. To effectively use i_mmap_rwsem to address the above issues it needs to be held (in read mode) during page fault processing. However, during fault processing we need to lock the page we will be adding. Lock ordering requires we take page lock before i_mmap_rwsem. Waiting until after taking the page lock is too late in the fault process for the synchronization we want to do. To address this lock ordering issue, the following patches change the lock ordering for hugetlb pages. This is not too invasive as hugetlbfs processing is done separate from core mm in many places. However, I don't really like this idea. Much ugliness is contained in the new routine hugetlb_page_mapping_lock_write() of patch 1. The only other way I can think of to address these issues is by catching all the races. After catching a race, cleanup, backout, retry ... etc, as needed. This can get really ugly, especially for huge page reservations. At one time, I started writing some of the reservation backout code for page faults and it got so ugly and complicated I went down the path of adding synchronization to avoid the races. Any other suggestions would be welcome.

Consider the following: A task takes a page fault on a shared hugetlbfs file and calls huge_pte_alloc to get a ptep. Suppose the returned ptep points to a shared pmd. Now, another task truncates the hugetlbfs file. As part of truncation, it unmaps everyone who has the file mapped. If the range being truncated is covered by a shared pmd, huge_pmd_unshare will be called. For all but the last user of the shared pmd, huge_pmd_unshare will clear the pud pointing to the pmd. If the task in the middle of the page fault is not the last user, the ptep returned by huge_pte_alloc now points to another task's page table or worse. This leads to bad things such as incorrect page map/reference counts or invalid memory references. To fix, expand the use of i_mmap_rwsem as follows: - i_mmap_rwsem is held in read mode whenever huge_pmd_share is called. huge_pmd_share is only called via huge_pte_alloc, so callers of huge_pte_alloc take i_mmap_rwsem before calling. In addition, callers of huge_pte_alloc continue to hold the semaphore until finished with the ptep. - i_mmap_rwsem is held in write mode whenever huge_pmd_unshare is called. One problem with this scheme is that it requires taking i_mmap_rwsem before taking the page lock during page faults. This is not the order specified in the rest of mm code. Handling of hugetlbfs pages is mostly isolated today. Therefore, we use this alternative locking order for PageHuge() pages. mapping->i_mmap_rwsem hugetlb_fault_mutex (hugetlbfs specific page fault mutex) page->flags PG_locked (lock_page) To help with lock ordering issues, hugetlb_page_mapping_lock_write() is introduced to write lock the i_mmap_rwsem associated with a page. In most cases it is easy to get address_space via vma->vm_file->f_mapping. However, in the case of migration or memory errors for anon pages we do not have an associated vma. A new routine _get_hugetlb_page_mapping() will use anon_vma to get address_space in these cases. Signed-off-by:

vma_migratable() is called to check if pages in vma can be migrated before go ahead to further actions. Currently it is used in below code path: - task_numa_work - mbind - move_pages For hugetlb mapping, whether vma is migratable or not is determined by: - CONFIG_ARCH_ENABLE_HUGEPAGE_MIGRATION - arch_hugetlb_migration_supported Issue: current code only checks for CONFIG_ARCH_ENABLE_HUGEPAGE_MIGRATION alone, and no code should use it directly. (note that current code in vma_migratable don't cause failure or bug because unmap_and_move_huge_page() will catch unsupported hugepage and handle it properly) This patch checks the two factors by hugepage_migration_supported for impoving code logic and robustness. It will enable early bail out of hugepage migration procedure, but because currently all architecture supporting hugepage migration is able to support all page size, we would not see performance gain with this patch applied. vma_migratable() is moved to mm/mempolicy.c, because of the circular reference of mempolicy.h and hugetlb.h cause defining it as inline not feasible.

MPOL_MF_STRICT is used in mbind() for purposes: (1) MPOL_MF_STRICT is set alone without MPOL_MF_MOVE or MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL, to check if there is misplaced page and return -EIO; (2) MPOL_MF_STRICT is set with MPOL_MF_MOVE or MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL, to check if there is misplaced page which is failed to isolate, or page is success on isolate but failed to move, and return -EIO. For non hugepage mapping, (1) and (2) are implemented as expectation. For hugepage mapping, (1) is not implemented. And in (2), the part about failed to isolate and report -EIO is not implemented. This patch implements the missed parts for hugepage mapping. Benefits with it applied: - User space can apply same code logic to handle mbind() on hugepage and non hugepage mapping; - Reliably using MPOL_MF_STRICT alone to check whether there is misplaced page or not when bind policy on address range, especially for address range which contains both hugepage and non hugepage mapping. Analysis of potential impact to existing users: - If MPOL_MF_STRICT alone was previously used, hugetlb pages not following the memory policy would not cause an EIO error. After this change, hugetlb pages are treated like all other pages. If MPOL_MF_STRICT alone is used and hugetlb pages do not follow memory policy an EIO error will be returned. - For users who using MPOL_MF_STRICT with MPOL_MF_MOVE or MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL, the semantic about some pages could not be moved will not be changed by this patch, because failed to isolate and failed to move have same effects to users, so their existing code will not be impacted. In mbind man page, the note about 'MPOL_MF_STRICT is ignored on huge page mappings' can be removed after this patch is applied. Mike: : The current behavior with MPOL_MF_STRICT and hugetlb pages is inconsistent : and does not match documentation (as described above). The special : behavior for hugetlb pages ideally should have been removed when hugetlb : page migration was introduced. It is unlikely that anyone relies on : today's inconsistent behavior, and removing one more case of special : handling for hugetlb pages is a good thing.

The code to implement THP migrations already exists, and the code for CMA to clear out a region of memory already exists. Only a few small tweaks are needed to allow CMA to move THP memory when attempting an allocation from alloc_contig_range. With these changes, migrating THPs from a CMA area works when allocating a 1GB hugepage from CMA memory.

Patch series "fix THP migration for CMA allocations", v2. Transparent huge pages are allocated with __GFP_MOVABLE, and can end up in CMA memory blocks. Transparent huge pages also have most of the infrastructure in place to allow migration. However, a few pieces were missing, causing THP migration to fail when attempting to use CMA to allocate 1GB hugepages. With these patches in place, THP migration from CMA blocks seems to work, both for anonymous THPs and for tmpfs/shmem THPs. This patch (of 2): Add information to struct compact_control to indicate that the allocator would really like to clear out this specific part of memory, used by for example CMA. Signed-off-by:

It was noticed that mlock2 tests are failing after 9c4e6b1a ("mm, mlock, vmscan: no more skipping pagevecs") because the patch has changed the timing on when the page is added to the unevictable LRU list and thus gains the unevictable page flag. The test was just too dependent on the implementation details which were true at the time when it was introduced. Page flags and the timing when they are set is something no userspace should ever depend on. The test should be testing only for the user observable contract of the tested syscalls. Those are defined pretty well for the mlock and there are other means for testing them. In fact this is already done and testing for page flags can be safely dropped to achieve the aimed purpose. Present bits can be checked by /proc/<pid>/smaps RSS field and the locking state by VmFlags although I would argue that Locked: field would be more appropriate. Drop all the page flag machinery and considerably simplify the test. This should be more robust for future kernel changes while checking the promised contract is still valid.

kswapd kernel thread starts either with a CPU affinity set to the full cpu mask of its target node or without any affinity at all if the node is CPUless. There is a cpu hotplug callback (kswapd_cpu_online) that implements an elaborate way to update this mask when a cpu is onlined. It is not really clear whether there is any actual benefit from this scheme. Completely CPU-less NUMA nodes rarely gain a new CPU during runtime. Drop the code for that reason.

Currently, the vm.min_free_kbytes sysctl value is capped at a hardcoded 64M in init_per_zone_wmark_min (unless it is overridden by khugepaged initialization). This value has not been modified since 2005, and enterprise-grade systems now frequently have hundreds of GB of RAM and multiple 10, 40, or even 100 GB NICs. We have seen page allocation failures on heavily loaded systems related to NIC drivers. These issues were resolved by an increase to vm.min_free_kbytes. This patch increases the hardcoded value by a factor of 4 as a temporary solution. Further work to make the calculation of vm.min_free_kbytes more consistent throughout the kernel would be desirable. As an example of the inconsistency of the current method, this value is recalculated by init_per_zone_wmark_min() in the case of memory hotplug which will override the value set by set_recommended_min_free_kbytes() called during khugepaged initialization even if khugepaged remains enabled, however an on/off toggle of khugepaged will then recalculate and set the value via set_recommended_min_free_kbytes().

Patch series "fix the missing underflow in memory operation function", v4. The patchset helps to produce a KASAN report when size is negative in memory operation functions. It is helpful for programmer to solve an undefined behavior issue. Patch 1 based on Dmitry's review and suggestion, patch 2 is a test in order to verify the patch 1. [1]https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=199341 [2]https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-kernel/20190927034338.15813-1-walter-zh.wu@mediatek.com/ This patch (of 2): KASAN missed detecting size is a negative number in memset(), memcpy(), and memmove(), it will cause out-of-bounds bug. So needs to be detected by KASAN. If size is a negative number, then it has a reason to be defined as out-of-bounds bug type. Casting negative numbers to size_t would indeed turn up as a large size_t and its value will be larger than ULONG_MAX/2, so that this can qualify as out-of-bounds. KASAN report is shown below: BUG: KASAN: out-of-bounds in kmalloc_memmove_invalid_size+0x70/0xa0 Read of size 18446744073709551608 at addr ffffff8069660904 by task cat/72 CPU: 2 PID: 72 Comm: cat Not tainted 5.4.0-rc1-next-20191004ajb-00001-gdb8af2f372b2-dirty #1 Hardware name: linux,dummy-virt (DT) Call trace: dump_backtrace+0x0/0x288 show_stack+0x14/0x20 dump_stack+0x10c/0x164 print_address_description.isra.9+0x68/0x378 __kasan_report+0x164/0x1a0 kasan_report+0xc/0x18 check_memory_region+0x174/0x1d0 memmove+0x34/0x88 kmalloc_memmove_invalid_size+0x70/0xa0 [1] https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=199341 [cai@lca.pw: fix -Wdeclaration-after-statement warn] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1583509030-27939-1-git-send-email-cai@lca.pw [peterz@infradead.org: fix objtool warning] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200305095436.GV2596@hirez.programming.kicks-ass.netReported-by:

When allocating memmap for hot added memory with the classic sparse, the specified 'nid' is ignored in populate_section_memmap(). While in allocating memmap for the classic sparse during boot, the node given by 'nid' is preferred. And VMEMMAP prefers the node of 'nid' in both boot stage and memory hot adding. So seems no reason to not respect the node of 'nid' for the classic sparse when hot adding memory. Use kvmalloc_node instead to use the passed in 'nid'. Signed-off-by:

After introducing mem sub section concept, pfn_present() loses its literal meaning, and will not be necessary a truth on partial populated mem section. Since all of the callers use it to judge an absent section, it is better to rename pfn_present() as pfn_in_present_section(). Signed-off-by:

memmap should be the address to page struct instead of address to pfn. As mentioned by David, if system memory and devmem sit within a section, the mismatch address would lead kdump to dump unexpected memory. Since sub-section only works for SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP, pfn_to_page() is valid to get the page struct address at this point. Fixes: ba72b4c8 ("mm/sparsemem: support sub-section hotplug") Signed-off-by:

Add a few simple self tests for the new flag MREMAP_DONTUNMAP, they are simple smoke tests which also demonstrate the behavior.

When remapping an anonymous, private mapping, if MREMAP_DONTUNMAP is set, the source mapping will not be removed. The remap operation will be performed as it would have been normally by moving over the page tables to the new mapping. The old vma will have any locked flags cleared, have no pagetables, and any userfaultfds that were watching that range will continue watching it. For a mapping that is shared or not anonymous, MREMAP_DONTUNMAP will cause the mremap() call to fail. Because MREMAP_DONTUNMAP always results in moving a VMA you MUST use the MREMAP_MAYMOVE flag, it's not possible to resize a VMA while also moving with MREMAP_DONTUNMAP so old_len must always be equal to the new_len otherwise it will return -EINVAL. We hope to use this in Chrome OS where with userfaultfd we could write an anonymous mapping to disk without having to STOP the process or worry about VMA permission changes. This feature also has a use case in Android, Lokesh Gidra has said that "As part of using userfaultfd for GC, We'll have to move the physical pages of the java heap to a separate location. For this purpose mremap will be used. Without the MREMAP_DONTUNMAP flag, when I mremap the java heap, its virtual mapping will be removed as well. Therefore, we'll require performing mmap immediately after. This is not only time consuming but also opens a time window where a native thread may call mmap and reserve the java heap's address range for its own usage. This flag solves the problem."

Even on 64 bit kernel, the mmap failure can happen for a 32 bit task. Virtual memory space shortage of a task on mmap is reported to userspace as -ENOMEM. It can be confused as physical memory shortage of overall system. The vm_unmapped_area can be called to by some drivers or other kernel core system like filesystem. In my platform, GPU driver calls to vm_unmapped_area and the driver returns -ENOMEM even in GPU side shortage. It can be hard to distinguish which code layer returns the -ENOMEM. Create mmap trace file and add trace point of vm_unmapped_area. i.e.) 277.156599: vm_unmapped_area: addr=77e0d03000 err=0 total_vm=0x17014b flags=0x1 len=0x400000 lo=0x8000 hi=0x7878c27000 mask=0x0 ofs=0x1 342.838740: vm_unmapped_area: addr=0 err=-12 total_vm=0xffb08 flags=0x0 len=0x100000 lo=0x40000000 hi=0xfffff000 mask=0x0 ofs=0x22 [akpm@linux-foundation.org: prefix address printk with 0x, per Matthew] Signed-off-by:

Patch series "mm: mmap: add mmap trace point", v3. Create mmap trace file and add trace point of vm_unmapped_area(). This patch (of 2): In preparation for next patch remove inline of vm_unmapped_area and move code to mmap.c. There is no logical change. Also remove unmapped_area[_topdown] out of mm.h, there is no code calling to them. Signed-off-by:

The param "start" actually referes to the physical memory start, which is to be mapped into virtual area vma. And it is the field vma->vm_start which stands for the start of the area. Most of the time, we do not read through whole implementation of a function but only the definition and essential comments. Accurate comments are definitely the base stone. Signed-off-by:

It really made me scratch my head. Replace the comment with an accurate and consistent description. The parameter pfn actually refers to the page frame number which is right-shifted by PAGE_SHIFT from the physical address. Signed-off-by:

Userfaultfd fault path was by default killable even if the caller does not have FAULT_FLAG_KILLABLE. That makes sense before in that when with gup we don't have FAULT_FLAG_KILLABLE properly set before. Now after previous patch we've got FAULT_FLAG_KILLABLE applied even for gup code so it should also make sense to let userfaultfd to honor the FAULT_FLAG_KILLABLE. Because we're unconditionally setting FAULT_FLAG_KILLABLE in gup code right now, this patch should have no functional change. It also cleaned the code a little bit by introducing some helpers.
