When PTE_MARKER_UFFD_WP not configured, it's still possible to reach pte
marker code and trigger an warning. Add a few CONFIG_PTE_MARKER_UFFD_WP
ifdefs to make sure the code won't be reached when not compiled in.

With memory tier support we can have memory only NUMA nodes in the top
tier from which we want to avoid promotion tracking NUMA faults. Update
node_is_toptier to work with memory tiers. All NUMA nodes are by default
top tier nodes. With lower(slower) memory tiers added we consider all
memory tiers above a memory tier having CPU NUMA nodes as a top memory
tier

Patch series "memory tiering: hot page selection", v4.
To optimize page placement in a memory tiering system with NUMA balancing,
the hot pages in the slow memory nodes need to be identified.
Essentially, the original NUMA balancing implementation selects the mostly
recently accessed (MRU) pages to promote. But this isn't a perfect
algorithm to identify the hot pages. Because the pages with quite low
access frequency may be accessed eventually given the NUMA balancing page
table scanning period could be quite long (e.g. 60 seconds). So in this
patchset, we implement a new hot page identification algorithm based on
the latency between NUMA balancing page table scanning and hint page
fault. Which is a kind of mostly frequently accessed (MFU) algorithm.
In NUMA balancing memory tiering mode, if there are hot pages in slow
memory node and cold pages in fast memory node, we need to promote/demote
hot/cold pages between the fast and cold memory nodes.
A choice is to promote/demote as fast as possible. But the CPU cycles and
memory bandwidth consumed by the high promoting/demoting throughput will
hurt the latency of some workload because of accessing inflating and slow
memory bandwidth contention.
A way to resolve this issue is to restrict the max promoting/demoting
throughput. It will take longer to finish the promoting/demoting. But
the workload latency will be better. This is implemented in this patchset
as the page promotion rate limit mechanism.
The promotion hot threshold is workload and system configuration
dependent. So in this patchset, a method to adjust the hot threshold
automatically is implemented. The basic idea is to control the number of
the candidate promotion pages to match the promotion rate limit.
We used the pmbench memory accessing benchmark tested the patchset on a
2-socket server system with DRAM and PMEM installed. The test results are
as follows,
pmbench score promote rate
(accesses/s) MB/s
------------- ------------
base 146887704.1 725.6
hot selection 165695601.2 544.0
rate limit 162814569.8 165.2
auto adjustment 170495294.0 136.9
From the results above,
With hot page selection patch [1/3], the pmbench score increases about
12.8%, and promote rate (overhead) decreases about 25.0%, compared with
base kernel.
With rate limit patch [2/3], pmbench score decreases about 1.7%, and
promote rate decreases about 69.6%, compared with hot page selection
patch.
With threshold auto adjustment patch [3/3], pmbench score increases about
4.7%, and promote rate decrease about 17.1%, compared with rate limit
patch.
Baolin helped to test the patchset with MySQL on a machine which contains
1 DRAM node (30G) and 1 PMEM node (126G).
sysbench /usr/share/sysbench/oltp_read_write.lua \
......
--tables=200 \
--table-size=1000000 \
--report-interval=10 \
--threads=16 \
--time=120
The tps can be improved about 5%.
This patch (of 3):
To optimize page placement in a memory tiering system with NUMA balancing,
the hot pages in the slow memory node need to be identified. Essentially,
the original NUMA balancing implementation selects the mostly recently
accessed (MRU) pages to promote. But this isn't a perfect algorithm to
identify the hot pages. Because the pages with quite low access frequency
may be accessed eventually given the NUMA balancing page table scanning
period could be quite long (e.g. 60 seconds). The most frequently
accessed (MFU) algorithm is better.
So, in this patch we implemented a better hot page selection algorithm.
Which is based on NUMA balancing page table scanning and hint page fault
as follows,
- When the page tables of the processes are scanned to change PTE/PMD
to be PROT_NONE, the current time is recorded in struct page as scan
time.
- When the page is accessed, hint page fault will occur. The scan
time is gotten from the struct page. And The hint page fault
latency is defined as
hint page fault time - scan time
The shorter the hint page fault latency of a page is, the higher the
probability of their access frequency to be higher. So the hint page
fault latency is a better estimation of the page hot/cold.
It's hard to find some extra space in struct page to hold the scan time.
Fortunately, we can reuse some bits used by the original NUMA balancing.
NUMA balancing uses some bits in struct page to store the page accessing
CPU and PID (referring to page_cpupid_xchg_last()). Which is used by the
multi-stage node selection algorithm to avoid to migrate pages shared
accessed by the NUMA nodes back and forth. But for pages in the slow
memory node, even if they are shared accessed by multiple NUMA nodes, as
long as the pages are hot, they need to be promoted to the fast memory
node. So the accessing CPU and PID information are unnecessary for the
slow memory pages. We can reuse these bits in struct page to record the
scan time. For the fast memory pages, these bits are used as before.
For the hot threshold, the default value is 1 second, which works well in
our performance test. All pages with hint page fault latency < hot
threshold will be considered hot.
It's hard for users to determine the hot threshold. So we don't provide a
kernel ABI to set it, just provide a debugfs interface for advanced users
to experiment. We will continue to work on a hot threshold automatic
adjustment mechanism.
The downside of the above method is that the response time to the workload
hot spot changing may be much longer. For example,
- A previous cold memory area becomes hot
- The hint page fault will be triggered. But the hint page fault
latency isn't shorter than the hot threshold. So the pages will
not be promoted.
- When the memory area is scanned again, maybe after a scan period,
the hint page fault latency measured will be shorter than the hot
threshold and the pages will be promoted.
To mitigate this, if there are enough free space in the fast memory node,
the hot threshold will not be used, all pages will be promoted upon the
hint page fault for fast response.
Thanks Zhong Jiang reported and tested the fix for a bug when disabling
memory tiering mode dynamically.

Patch series "mm/mprotect: Fix soft-dirty checks", v4.
This patch (of 3):
The check wanted to make sure when soft-dirty tracking is enabled we won't
grant write bit by accident, as a page fault is needed for dirty tracking.
The intention is correct but we didn't check it right because
VM_SOFTDIRTY set actually means soft-dirty tracking disabled. Fix it.
There's another thing tricky about soft-dirty is that, we can't check the
vma flag !(vma_flags & VM_SOFTDIRTY) directly but only check it after we
checked CONFIG_MEM_SOFT_DIRTY because otherwise VM_SOFTDIRTY will be
defined as zero, and !(vma_flags & VM_SOFTDIRTY) will constantly return
true. To avoid misuse, introduce a helper for checking whether vma has
soft-dirty tracking enabled.
We can easily verify this with any exclusive anonymous page, like program

With DEVICE_COHERENT, we'll soon have vm_normal_pages() return
device-managed anonymous pages that are not LRU pages. Although they
behave like normal pages for purposes of mapping in CPU page, and for COW.
They do not support LRU lists, NUMA migration or THP.
Callers to follow_page() currently don't expect ZONE_DEVICE pages,
however, with DEVICE_COHERENT we might now return ZONE_DEVICE. Check for
ZONE_DEVICE pages in applicable users of follow_page() as well.

Similar to our MM_CP_DIRTY_ACCT handling for shared, writable mappings, we
can try mapping anonymous pages in a private writable mapping writable if
they are exclusive, the PTE is already dirty, and no special handling
applies. Mapping the anonymous page writable is essentially the same
thing the write fault handler would do in this case.
Special handling is required for uffd-wp and softdirty tracking, so take
care of that properly. Also, leave PROT_NONE handling alone for now; in
the future, we could similarly extend the logic in do_numa_page() or use
pte_mk_savedwrite() here.
While this improves mprotect(PROT_READ)+mprotect(PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE)
performance, it should also be a valuable optimization for uffd-wp, when
un-protecting.
This has been previously suggested by Peter Collingbourne in [1], relevant
in the context of the Scudo memory allocator, before we had
PageAnonExclusive.
This commit doesn't add the same handling for PMDs (i.e., anonymous THP,
anonymous hugetlb); benchmark results from Andrea indicate that there are
minor performance gains, so it's might still be valuable to streamline
that logic for all anonymous pages in the future.
As we now also set MM_CP_DIRTY_ACCT for private mappings, let's rename it
to MM_CP_TRY_CHANGE_WRITABLE, to make it clearer what's actually
happening.

This starts from passing cp_flags into hugetlb_change_protection() so
hugetlb will be able to handle MM_CP_UFFD_WP[_RESOLVE] requests.
huge_pte_clear_uffd_wp() is introduced to handle the case where the
UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT is requested upon migrating huge page entries.

We don't have "huge" version of pte markers, instead when necessary we
split the thp.
However split the thp is not enough, because file-backed thp is handled
totally differently comparing to anonymous thps: rather than doing a real
split, the thp pmd will simply got cleared in __split_huge_pmd_locked().
That is not enough if e.g. when there is a thp covers range [0, 2M) but
we want to wr-protect small page resides in [4K, 8K) range, because after
__split_huge_pmd() returns, there will be a none pmd, and
change_pmd_range() will just skip it right after the split.
Here we leverage the previously introduced change_pmd_prepare() macro so
that we'll populate the pmd with a pgtable page after the pmd split (in
which process the pmd will be cleared for cases like shmem). Then
change_pte_range() will do all the rest for us by installing the uffd-wp
pte marker at any none pte that we'd like to wr-protect.

File-backed memory differs from anonymous memory in that even if the pte
is missing, the data could still resides either in the file or in
page/swap cache. So when wr-protect a pte, we need to consider none ptes
too.
We do that by installing the uffd-wp pte markers when necessary. So when
there's a future write to the pte, the fault handler will go the special
path to first fault-in the page as read-only, then report to userfaultfd
server with the wr-protect message.
On the other hand, when unprotecting a page, it's also possible that the
pte got unmapped but replaced by the special uffd-wp marker. Then we'll
need to be able to recover from a uffd-wp pte marker into a none pte, so
that the next access to the page will fault in correctly as usual when
accessed the next time.
Special care needs to be taken throughout the change_protection_range()
process. Since now we allow user to wr-protect a none pte, we need to be
able to pre-populate the page table entries if we see (!anonymous &&
MM_CP_UFFD_WP) requests, otherwise change_protection_range() will always
skip when the pgtable entry does not exist.
For example, the pgtable can be missing for a whole chunk of 2M pmd, but
the page cache can exist for the 2M range. When we want to wr-protect one
4K page within the 2M pmd range, we need to pre-populate the pgtable and
install the pte marker showing that we want to get a message and block the
thread when the page cache of that 4K page is written. Without
pre-populating the pmd, change_protection() will simply skip that whole
pmd.
Note that this patch only covers the small pages (pte level) but not
covering any of the transparent huge pages yet. That will be done later,
and this patch will be a preparation for it too.

This patch still does not use pte marker in any way, however it teaches
the core mm about the pte marker idea.
For example, handle_pte_marker() is introduced that will parse and handle
all the pte marker faults.
Many of the places are more about commenting it up - so that we know
there's the possibility of pte marker showing up, and why we don't need
special code for the cases.

Currently, using mprotect() to unprotect a memory region or uffd to
unprotect a memory region causes a TLB flush. However, in such cases the
PTE is often not modified (i.e., remain RO) and therefore not TLB flush is
needed.
Add an arch-specific pte_needs_flush() which tells whether a TLB flush is
needed based on the old PTE and the new one. Implement an x86
pte_needs_flush().
Always flush the TLB when it is architecturally needed even when skipping
a TLB flush might only result in a spurious page-faults by skipping the
flush.
Even with such conservative manner, we can in the future further refine
the checks to test whether a PTE is present by only considering the
architectural _PAGE_PRESENT flag instead of {pte|pmd}_preesnt(). For not
be careful and use the latter.

Patch series "mm/mprotect: avoid unnecessary TLB flushes", v6.
This patchset is intended to remove unnecessary TLB flushes during
mprotect() syscalls. Once this patch-set make it through, similar and
further optimizations for MADV_COLD and userfaultfd would be possible.
Basically, there are 3 optimizations in this patch-set:
1. Use TLB batching infrastructure to batch flushes across VMAs and do
better/fewer flushes. This would also be handy for later userfaultfd
enhancements.
2. Avoid unnecessary TLB flushes. This optimization is the one that
provides most of the performance benefits. Unlike previous versions,
we now only avoid flushes that would not result in spurious
page-faults.
3. Avoiding TLB flushes on change_huge_pmd() that are only needed to
prevent the A/D bits from changing.
Andrew asked for some benchmark numbers. I do not have an easy
determinate macrobenchmark in which it is easy to show benefit. I
therefore ran a microbenchmark: a loop that does the following on
anonymous memory, just as a sanity check to see that time is saved by
avoiding TLB flushes. The loop goes:
mprotect(p, PAGE_SIZE, PROT_READ)
mprotect(p, PAGE_SIZE, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE)
*p = 0; // make the page writable
The test was run in KVM guest with 1 or 2 threads (the second thread was
busy-looping). I measured the time (cycles) of each operation:
1 thread 2 threads
mmots +patch mmots +patch
PROT_READ 3494 2725 (-22%) 8630 7788 (-10%)
PROT_READ|WRITE 3952 2724 (-31%) 9075 2865 (-68%)
[ mmots = v5.17-rc6-mmots-2022-03-06-20-38 ]
The exact numbers are really meaningless, but the benefit is clear. There
are 2 interesting results though.
(1) PROT_READ is cheaper, while one can expect it not to be affected.
This is presumably due to TLB miss that is saved
(2) Without memory access (*p = 0), the speedup of the patch is even
greater. In that scenario mprotect(PROT_READ) also avoids the TLB flush.
As a result both operations on the patched kernel take roughly ~1500
cycles (with either 1 or 2 threads), whereas on mmotm their cost is as
high as presented in the table.
This patch (of 3):
change_pXX_range() currently does not use mmu_gather, but instead
implements its own deferred TLB flushes scheme. This both complicates the
code, as developers need to be aware of different invalidation schemes,
and prevents opportunities to avoid TLB flushes or perform them in finer
granularity.
The use of mmu_gather for modified PTEs has benefits in various scenarios
even if pages are not released. For instance, if only a single page needs
to be flushed out of a range of many pages, only that page would be
flushed. If a THP page is flushed, on x86 a single TLB invlpg instruction
can be used instead of 512 instructions (or a full TLB flush, which would
Linux would actually use by default). mprotect() over multiple VMAs
requires a single flush.
Use mmu_gather in change_pXX_range(). As the pages are not released, only
record the flushed range using tlb_flush_pXX_range().
Handle THP similarly and get rid of flush_cache_range() which becomes
redundant since tlb_start_vma() calls it when needed.

Let's mark exclusively mapped anonymous pages with PG_anon_exclusive as
exclusive, and use that information to make GUP pins reliable and stay
consistent with the page mapped into the page table even if the page table
entry gets write-protected.
With that information at hand, we can extend our COW logic to always reuse
anonymous pages that are exclusive. For anonymous pages that might be
shared, the existing logic applies.
As already documented, PG_anon_exclusive is usually only expressive in
combination with a page table entry. Especially PTE vs. PMD-mapped
anonymous pages require more thought, some examples: due to mremap() we
can easily have a single compound page PTE-mapped into multiple page
tables exclusively in a single process -- multiple page table locks apply.
Further, due to MADV_WIPEONFORK we might not necessarily write-protect
all PTEs, and only some subpages might be pinned. Long story short: once
PTE-mapped, we have to track information about exclusivity per sub-page,
but until then, we can just track it for the compound page in the head
page and not having to update a whole bunch of subpages all of the time
for a simple PMD mapping of a THP.
For simplicity, this commit mostly talks about "anonymous pages", while
it's for THP actually "the part of an anonymous folio referenced via a
page table entry".
To not spill PG_anon_exclusive code all over the mm code-base, we let the
anon rmap code to handle all PG_anon_exclusive logic it can easily handle.
If a writable, present page table entry points at an anonymous (sub)page,
that (sub)page must be PG_anon_exclusive. If GUP wants to take a reliably
pin (FOLL_PIN) on an anonymous page references via a present page table
entry, it must only pin if PG_anon_exclusive is set for the mapped
(sub)page.
This commit doesn't adjust GUP, so this is only implicitly handled for
FOLL_WRITE, follow-up commits will teach GUP to also respect it for
FOLL_PIN without FOLL_WRITE, to make all GUP pins of anonymous pages fully
reliable.
Whenever an anonymous page is to be shared (fork(), KSM), or when
temporarily unmapping an anonymous page (swap, migration), the relevant
PG_anon_exclusive bit has to be cleared to mark the anonymous page
possibly shared. Clearing will fail if there are GUP pins on the page:
* For fork(), this means having to copy the page and not being able to
share it. fork() protects against concurrent GUP using the PT lock and
the src_mm->write_protect_seq.
* For KSM, this means sharing will fail. For swap this means, unmapping
will fail, For migration this means, migration will fail early. All
three cases protect against concurrent GUP using the PT lock and a
proper clear/invalidate+flush of the relevant page table entry.
This fixes memory corruptions reported for FOLL_PIN | FOLL_WRITE, when a
pinned page gets mapped R/O and the successive write fault ends up
replacing the page instead of reusing it. It improves the situation for
O_DIRECT/vmsplice/... that still use FOLL_GET instead of FOLL_PIN, if
fork() is *not* involved, however swapout and fork() are still
problematic. Properly using FOLL_PIN instead of FOLL_GET for these GUP
users will fix the issue for them.
I. Details about basic handling
I.1. Fresh anonymous pages
page_add_new_anon_rmap() and hugepage_add_new_anon_rmap() will mark the
given page exclusive via __page_set_anon_rmap(exclusive=1). As that is
the mechanism fresh anonymous pages come into life (besides migration code
where we copy the page->mapping), all fresh anonymous pages will start out
as exclusive.
I.2. COW reuse handling of anonymous pages
When a COW handler stumbles over a (sub)page that's marked exclusive, it
simply reuses it. Otherwise, the handler tries harder under page lock to
detect if the (sub)page is exclusive and can be reused. If exclusive,
page_move_anon_rmap() will mark the given (sub)page exclusive.
Note that hugetlb code does not yet check for PageAnonExclusive(), as it
still uses the old COW logic that is prone to the COW security issue
because hugetlb code cannot really tolerate unnecessary/wrong COW as huge
pages are a scarce resource.
I.3. Migration handling
try_to_migrate() has to try marking an exclusive anonymous page shared via
page_try_share_anon_rmap(). If it fails because there are GUP pins on the
page, unmap fails. migrate_vma_collect_pmd() and
__split_huge_pmd_locked() are handled similarly.
Writable migration entries implicitly point at shared anonymous pages.
For readable migration entries that information is stored via a new
"readable-exclusive" migration entry, specific to anonymous pages.
When restoring a migration entry in remove_migration_pte(), information
about exlusivity is detected via the migration entry type, and
RMAP_EXCLUSIVE is set accordingly for
page_add_anon_rmap()/hugepage_add_anon_rmap() to restore that information.
I.4. Swapout handling
try_to_unmap() has to try marking the mapped page possibly shared via
page_try_share_anon_rmap(). If it fails because there are GUP pins on the
page, unmap fails. For now, information about exclusivity is lost. In
the future, we might want to remember that information in the swap entry
in some cases, however, it requires more thought, care, and a way to store
that information in swap entries.
I.5. Swapin handling
do_swap_page() will never stumble over exclusive anonymous pages in the
swap cache, as try_to_migrate() prohibits that. do_swap_page() always has
to detect manually if an anonymous page is exclusive and has to set
RMAP_EXCLUSIVE for page_add_anon_rmap() accordingly.
I.6. THP handling
__split_huge_pmd_locked() has to move the information about exclusivity
from the PMD to the PTEs.
a) In case we have a readable-exclusive PMD migration entry, simply
insert readable-exclusive PTE migration entries.
b) In case we have a present PMD entry and we don't want to freeze
("convert to migration entries"), simply forward PG_anon_exclusive to
all sub-pages, no need to temporarily clear the bit.
c) In case we have a present PMD entry and want to freeze, handle it
similar to try_to_migrate(): try marking the page shared first. In
case we fail, we ignore the "freeze" instruction and simply split
ordinarily. try_to_migrate() will properly fail because the THP is
still mapped via PTEs.
When splitting a compound anonymous folio (THP), the information about
exclusivity is implicitly handled via the migration entries: no need to
replicate PG_anon_exclusive manually.
I.7. fork() handling fork() handling is relatively easy, because
PG_anon_exclusive is only expressive for some page table entry types.
a) Present anonymous pages
page_try_dup_anon_rmap() will mark the given subpage shared -- which will
fail if the page is pinned. If it failed, we have to copy (or PTE-map a
PMD to handle it on the PTE level).
Note that device exclusive entries are just a pointer at a PageAnon()
page. fork() will first convert a device exclusive entry to a present
page table and handle it just like present anonymous pages.
b) Device private entry
Device private entries point at PageAnon() pages that cannot be mapped
directly and, therefore, cannot get pinned.
page_try_dup_anon_rmap() will mark the given subpage shared, which cannot
fail because they cannot get pinned.
c) HW poison entries
PG_anon_exclusive will remain untouched and is stale -- the page table
entry is just a placeholder after all.
d) Migration entries
Writable and readable-exclusive entries are converted to readable entries:
possibly shared.
I.8. mprotect() handling
mprotect() only has to properly handle the new readable-exclusive
migration entry:
When write-protecting a migration entry that points at an anonymous page,
remember the information about exclusivity via the "readable-exclusive"
migration entry type.
II. Migration and GUP-fast
Whenever replacing a present page table entry that maps an exclusive
anonymous page by a migration entry, we have to mark the page possibly
shared and synchronize against GUP-fast by a proper clear/invalidate+flush
to make the following scenario impossible:
1. try_to_migrate() places a migration entry after checking for GUP pins
and marks the page possibly shared.
2. GUP-fast pins the page due to lack of synchronization
3. fork() converts the "writable/readable-exclusive" migration entry into a
readable migration entry
4. Migration fails due to the GUP pin (failing to freeze the refcount)
5. Migration entries are restored. PG_anon_exclusive is lost
-> We have a pinned page that is not marked exclusive anymore.
Note that we move information about exclusivity from the page to the
migration entry as it otherwise highly overcomplicates fork() and
PTE-mapping a THP.
III. Swapout and GUP-fast
Whenever replacing a present page table entry that maps an exclusive
anonymous page by a swap entry, we have to mark the page possibly shared
and synchronize against GUP-fast by a proper clear/invalidate+flush to
make the following scenario impossible:
1. try_to_unmap() places a swap entry after checking for GUP pins and
clears exclusivity information on the page.
2. GUP-fast pins the page due to lack of synchronization.
-> We have a pinned page that is not marked exclusive anymore.
If we'd ever store information about exclusivity in the swap entry,
similar to migration handling, the same considerations as in II would
apply. This is future work.

If the NUMA balancing isn't used to optimize the page placement among
sockets but only among memory types, the hot pages in the fast memory
node couldn't be migrated (promoted) to anywhere. So it's unnecessary
to scan the pages in the fast memory node via changing their PTE/PMD
mapping to be PROT_NONE. So that the page faults could be avoided too.
In the test, if only the memory tiering NUMA balancing mode is enabled,
the number of the NUMA balancing hint faults for the DRAM node is
reduced to almost 0 with the patch. While the benchmark score doesn't
change visibly.

Avoid mixing strings and their anon_vma_name referenced pointers by
using struct anon_vma_name whenever possible. This simplifies the code
and allows easier sharing of anon_vma_name structures when they
represent the same name.

Oded Gabbay reports that enabling NUMA balancing causes corruption with
his Gaudi accelerator test load:
"All the details are in the bug, but the bottom line is that somehow,
this patch causes corruption when the numa balancing feature is
enabled AND we don't use process affinity AND we use GUP to pin pages
so our accelerator can DMA to/from system memory.
Either disabling numa balancing, using process affinity to bind to
specific numa-node or reverting this patch causes the bug to
disappear"
and Oded bisected the issue to commit 09854ba94c6a ("mm: do_wp_page()
simplification").
Now, the NUMA balancing shouldn't actually be changing the writability
of a page, and as such shouldn't matter for COW. But it appears it
does. Suspicious.
However, regardless of that, the condition for enabling NUMA faults in
change_pte_range() is nonsensical. It uses "page_mapcount(page)" to
decide if a COW page should be NUMA-protected or not, and that makes
absolutely no sense.
The number of mappings a page has is irrelevant: not only does GUP get a
reference to a page as in Oded's case, but the other mappings migth be
paged out and the only reference to them would be in the page count.
Since we should never try to NUMA-balance a page that we can't move
anyway due to other references, just fix the code to use 'page_count()'.
Oded confirms that that fixes his issue.
Now, this does imply that something in NUMA balancing ends up changing
page protections (other than the obvious one of making the page
inaccessible to get the NUMA faulting information). Otherwise the COW
simplification wouldn't matter - since doing the GUP on the page would
make sure it's writable.
The cause of that permission change would be good to figure out too,
since it clearly results in spurious COW events - but fixing the
nonsensical test that just happened to work before is obviously the
CorrectThing(tm) to do regardless.

In many userspace applications, and especially in VM based applications
like Android uses heavily, there are multiple different allocators in
use. At a minimum there is libc malloc and the stack, and in many cases
there are libc malloc, the stack, direct syscalls to mmap anonymous
memory, and multiple VM heaps (one for small objects, one for big
objects, etc.). Each of these layers usually has its own tools to
inspect its usage; malloc by compiling a debug version, the VM through
heap inspection tools, and for direct syscalls there is usually no way
to track them.
On Android we heavily use a set of tools that use an extended version of
the logic covered in Documentation/vm/pagemap.txt to walk all pages
mapped in userspace and slice their usage by process, shared (COW) vs.
unique mappings, backing, etc. This can account for real physical
memory usage even in cases like fork without exec (which Android uses
heavily to share as many private COW pages as possible between
processes), Kernel SamePage Merging, and clean zero pages. It produces
a measurement of the pages that only exist in that process (USS, for
unique), and a measurement of the physical memory usage of that process
with the cost of shared pages being evenly split between processes that
share them (PSS).
If all anonymous memory is indistinguishable then figuring out the real
physical memory usage (PSS) of each heap requires either a pagemap
walking tool that can understand the heap debugging of every layer, or
for every layer's heap debugging tools to implement the pagemap walking
logic, in which case it is hard to get a consistent view of memory
across the whole system.
Tracking the information in userspace leads to all sorts of problems.
It either needs to be stored inside the process, which means every
process has to have an API to export its current heap information upon
request, or it has to be stored externally in a filesystem that somebody
needs to clean up on crashes. It needs to be readable while the process
is still running, so it has to have some sort of synchronization with
every layer of userspace. Efficiently tracking the ranges requires
reimplementing something like the kernel vma trees, and linking to it
from every layer of userspace. It requires more memory, more syscalls,
more runtime cost, and more complexity to separately track regions that
the kernel is already tracking.
This patch adds a field to /proc/pid/maps and /proc/pid/smaps to show a
userspace-provided name for anonymous vmas. The names of named
anonymous vmas are shown in /proc/pid/maps and /proc/pid/smaps as
[anon:<name>].
Userspace can set the name for a region of memory by calling
prctl(PR_SET_VMA, PR_SET_VMA_ANON_NAME, start, len, (unsigned long)name)
Setting the name to NULL clears it. The name length limit is 80 bytes
including NUL-terminator and is checked to contain only printable ascii
characters (including space), except '[',']','\','$' and '`'.
Ascii strings are being used to have a descriptive identifiers for vmas,
which can be understood by the users reading /proc/pid/maps or
/proc/pid/smaps. Names can be standardized for a given system and they
can include some variable parts such as the name of the allocator or a
library, tid of the thread using it, etc.
The name is stored in a pointer in the shared union in vm_area_struct
that points to a null terminated string. Anonymous vmas with the same
name (equivalent strings) and are otherwise mergeable will be merged.
The name pointers are not shared between vmas even if they contain the
same name. The name pointer is stored in a union with fields that are
only used on file-backed mappings, so it does not increase memory usage.
CONFIG_ANON_VMA_NAME kernel configuration is introduced to enable this
feature. It keeps the feature disabled by default to prevent any
additional memory overhead and to avoid confusing procfs parsers on
systems which are not ready to support named anonymous vmas.
The patch is based on the original patch developed by Colin Cross, more
specifically on its latest version [1] posted upstream by Sumit Semwal.
It used a userspace pointer to store vma names. In that design, name
pointers could be shared between vmas. However during the last
upstreaming attempt, Kees Cook raised concerns [2] about this approach
and suggested to copy the name into kernel memory space, perform
validity checks [3] and store as a string referenced from
vm_area_struct.
One big concern is about fork() performance which would need to strdup
anonymous vma names. Dave Hansen suggested experimenting with
worst-case scenario of forking a process with 64k vmas having longest
possible names [4]. I ran this experiment on an ARM64 Android device
and recorded a worst-case regression of almost 40% when forking such a
process.
This regression is addressed in the followup patch which replaces the
pointer to a name with a refcounted structure that allows sharing the
name pointer between vmas of the same name. Instead of duplicating the
string during fork() or when splitting a vma it increments the refcount.

Changes for prctl(2) manual page (in the options section):
PR_SET_VMA
Sets an attribute specified in arg2 for virtual memory areas
starting from the address specified in arg3 and spanning the
size specified in arg4. arg5 specifies the value of the attribute
to be set. Note that assigning an attribute to a virtual memory
area might prevent it from being merged with adjacent virtual
memory areas due to the difference in that attribute's value.
Currently, arg2 must be one of:
PR_SET_VMA_ANON_NAME
Set a name for anonymous virtual memory areas. arg5 should
be a pointer to a null-terminated string containing the
name. The name length including null byte cannot exceed
80 bytes. If arg5 is NULL, the name of the appropriate
anonymous virtual memory areas will be reset. The name
can contain only printable ascii characters (including
space), except '[',']','\','$' and '`'.
This feature is available only if the kernel is built with
the CONFIG_ANON_VMA_NAME option enabled.

Some devices require exclusive write access to shared virtual memory (SVM)
ranges to perform atomic operations on that memory. This requires CPU
page tables to be updated to deny access whilst atomic operations are
occurring.
In order to do this introduce a new swap entry type
(SWP_DEVICE_EXCLUSIVE). When a SVM range needs to be marked for exclusive
access by a device all page table mappings for the particular range are
replaced with device exclusive swap entries. This causes any CPU access
to the page to result in a fault.
Faults are resovled by replacing the faulting entry with the original
mapping. This results in MMU notifiers being called which a driver uses
to update access permissions such as revoking atomic access. After
notifiers have been called the device will no longer have exclusive access
to the region.
Walking of the page tables to find the target pages is handled by
get_user_pages() rather than a direct page table walk. A direct page
table walk similar to what migrate_vma_collect()/unmap() does could also
have been utilised. However this resulted in more code similar in
functionality to what get_user_pages() provides as page faulting is
required to make the PTEs present and to break COW.

Background
==========
1. SGX enclave pages are populated with data by copying from normal memory
via ioctl() (SGX_IOC_ENCLAVE_ADD_PAGES), which will be added later in
this series.
2. It is desirable to be able to restrict those normal memory data sources.
For instance, to ensure that the source data is executable before
copying data to an executable enclave page.
3. Enclave page permissions are dynamic (just like normal permissions) and
can be adjusted at runtime with mprotect().
This creates a problem because the original data source may have long since
vanished at the time when enclave page permissions are established (mmap()
or mprotect()).
The solution (elsewhere in this series) is to force enclave creators to
declare their paging permission *intent* up front to the ioctl(). This
intent can be immediately compared to the source data’s mapping and
rejected if necessary.
The “intent” is also stashed off for later comparison with enclave
PTEs. This ensures that any future mmap()/mprotect() operations
performed by the enclave creator or done on behalf of the enclave
can be compared with the earlier declared permissions.
Problem
=======
There is an existing mmap() hook which allows SGX to perform this
permission comparison at mmap() time. However, there is no corresponding
->mprotect() hook.
Solution
========
Add a vm_ops->mprotect() hook so that mprotect() operations which are
inconsistent with any page's stashed intent can be rejected by the driver.

Similarly to arch_validate_prot() called from do_mprotect_pkey(), an
architecture may need to sanity-check the new vm_flags.
Define a dummy function always returning true. In addition to
do_mprotect_pkey(), also invoke it from mmap_region() prior to updating
vma->vm_page_prot to allow the architecture code to veto potentially
inconsistent vm_flags.

There are many places where all basic VMA access flags (read, write,
exec) are initialized or checked against as a group. One such example
is during page fault. Existing vma_is_accessible() wrapper already
creates the notion of VMA accessibility as a group access permissions.
Hence lets just create VM_ACCESS_FLAGS (VM_READ|VM_WRITE|VM_EXEC) which
will not only reduce code duplication but also extend the VMA
accessibility concept in general.

For either swap and page migration, we all use the bit 2 of the entry to
identify whether this entry is uffd write-protected. It plays a similar
role as the existing soft dirty bit in swap entries but only for keeping
the uffd-wp tracking for a specific PTE/PMD.
Something special here is that when we want to recover the uffd-wp bit
from a swap/migration entry to the PTE bit we'll also need to take care of
the _PAGE_RW bit and make sure it's cleared, otherwise even with the
_PAGE_UFFD_WP bit we can't trap it at all.
In change_pte_range() we do nothing for uffd if the PTE is a swap entry.
That can lead to data mismatch if the page that we are going to write
protect is swapped out when sending the UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT. This patch
also applies/removes the uffd-wp bit even for the swap entries.

Firstly, introduce two new flags MM_CP_UFFD_WP[_RESOLVE] for
change_protection() when used with uffd-wp and make sure the two new flags
are exclusively used. Then,
- For MM_CP_UFFD_WP: apply the _PAGE_UFFD_WP bit and remove _PAGE_RW
when a range of memory is write protected by uffd
- For MM_CP_UFFD_WP_RESOLVE: remove the _PAGE_UFFD_WP bit and recover
_PAGE_RW when write protection is resolved from userspace
And use this new interface in mwriteprotect_range() to replace the old
MM_CP_DIRTY_ACCT.
Do this change for both PTEs and huge PMDs. Then we can start to identify
which PTE/PMD is write protected by general (e.g., COW or soft dirty
tracking), and which is for userfaultfd-wp.
Since we should keep the _PAGE_UFFD_WP when doing pte_modify(), add it
into _PAGE_CHG_MASK as well. Meanwhile, since we have this new bit, we
can be even more strict when detecting uffd-wp page faults in either
do_wp_page() or wp_huge_pmd().
After we're with _PAGE_UFFD_WP, a special case is when a page is both
protected by the general COW logic and also userfault-wp. Here the
userfault-wp will have higher priority and will be handled first. Only
after the uffd-wp bit is cleared on the PTE/PMD will we continue to handle
the general COW. These are the steps on what will happen with such a
page:
1. CPU accesses write protected shared page (so both protected by
general COW and uffd-wp), blocked by uffd-wp first because in
do_wp_page we'll handle uffd-wp first, so it has higher priority
than general COW.
2. Uffd service thread receives the request, do UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT
to remove the uffd-wp bit upon the PTE/PMD. However here we
still keep the write bit cleared. Notify the blocked CPU.
3. The blocked CPU resumes the page fault process with a fault
retry, during retry it'll notice it was not with the uffd-wp bit
this time but it is still write protected by general COW, then
it'll go though the COW path in the fault handler, copy the page,
apply write bit where necessary, and retry again.
4. The CPU will be able to access this page with write bit set.

change_protection() was used by either the NUMA or mprotect() code,
there's one parameter for each of the callers (dirty_accountable and
prot_numa). Further, these parameters are passed along the calls:
- change_protection_range()
- change_p4d_range()
- change_pud_range()
- change_pmd_range()
- ...
Now we introduce a flag for change_protect() and all these helpers to
replace these parameters. Then we can avoid passing multiple parameters
multiple times along the way.
More importantly, it'll greatly simplify the work if we want to introduce
any new parameters to change_protection(). In the follow up patches, a
new parameter for userfaultfd write protection will be introduced.
No functional change at all.

Some comments for MADV_FREE is revised and added to help people understand
the MADV_FREE code, especially the page flag, PG_swapbacked. This makes
page_is_file_cache() isn't consistent with its comments. So the function
is renamed to page_is_file_lru() to make them consistent again. All these
are put in one patch as one logical change.

Although Mel withdrew the patch on the face of LKML comment
https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/4/10/922 the race window aforementioned is
still open, and we have reports of Linpack test reporting bad residuals
after the bad PMD warning is observed. In addition to that, bad
rss-counter and non-zero pgtables assertions are triggered on mm teardown
for the task hitting the bad PMD.
host kernel: mm/pgtable-generic.c:40: bad pmd 00000000b3152f68(8000000d2d2008e7)

The issue is observed on a v4.18-based distribution kernel, but the race
window is expected to be applicable to mainline kernels, as well.

In auto NUMA balancing page table scanning, if the pte_protnone() is
true, the PTE needs not to be changed because it's in target state
already. So other checking on corresponding struct page is unnecessary
too.
So, if we check pte_protnone() firstly for each PTE, we can avoid
unnecessary struct page accessing, so that reduce the cache footprint of
NUMA balancing page table scanning.
In the performance test of pmbench memory accessing benchmark with 80:20
read/write ratio and normal access address distribution on a 2 socket
Intel server with Optance DC Persistent Memory, perf profiling shows
that the autonuma page table scanning time reduces from 1.23% to 0.97%
(that is, reduced 21%) with the patch.

This patch is a part of a series that extends kernel ABI to allow to pass
tagged user pointers (with the top byte set to something else other than
0x00) as syscall arguments.
This patch allows tagged pointers to be passed to the following memory
syscalls: get_mempolicy, madvise, mbind, mincore, mlock, mlock2, mprotect,
mremap, msync, munlock, move_pages.
The mmap and mremap syscalls do not currently accept tagged addresses.
Architectures may interpret the tag as a background colour for the
corresponding vma.

Since 0cbe3e26abe0 ("mm: update ptep_modify_prot_start/commit to take
vm_area_struct as arg") the only place that uses the local 'mm' variable
in change_pte_range() is the call to set_pte_at().
Many architectures define set_pte_at() as macro that does not use the 'mm'
parameter, which generates the following compilation warning:
CC mm/mprotect.o
mm/mprotect.c: In function 'change_pte_range':
mm/mprotect.c:42:20: warning: unused variable 'mm' [-Wunused-variable]
struct mm_struct *mm = vma->vm_mm;
^~
Fix it by passing vma->mm to set_pte_at() and dropping the local 'mm'
variable in change_pte_range().

CPU page table update can happens for many reasons, not only as a result
of a syscall (munmap(), mprotect(), mremap(), madvise(), ...) but also as
a result of kernel activities (memory compression, reclaim, migration,
...).
Users of mmu notifier API track changes to the CPU page table and take
specific action for them. While current API only provide range of virtual
address affected by the change, not why the changes is happening.
This patchset do the initial mechanical convertion of all the places that
calls mmu_notifier_range_init to also provide the default MMU_NOTIFY_UNMAP
event as well as the vma if it is know (most invalidation happens against
a given vma). Passing down the vma allows the users of mmu notifier to
inspect the new vma page protection.
The MMU_NOTIFY_UNMAP is always the safe default as users of mmu notifier
should assume that every for the range is going away when that event
happens. A latter patch do convert mm call path to use a more appropriate
events for each call.
This is done as 2 patches so that no call site is forgotten especialy
as it uses this following coccinelle patch:

Patch series "NestMMU pte upgrade workaround for mprotect", v5.
We can upgrade pte access (R -> RW transition) via mprotect. We need to
make sure we follow the recommended pte update sequence as outlined in
commit bd5050e38aec ("powerpc/mm/radix: Change pte relax sequence to
handle nest MMU hang") for such updates. This patch series does that.
This patch (of 5):
Some architectures may want to call flush_tlb_range from these helpers.

For L1TF PROT_NONE mappings are protected by inverting the PFN in the page
table entry. This sets the high bits in the CPU's address space, thus
making sure to point to not point an unmapped entry to valid cached memory.
Some server system BIOSes put the MMIO mappings high up in the physical
address space. If such an high mapping was mapped to unprivileged users
they could attack low memory by setting such a mapping to PROT_NONE. This
could happen through a special device driver which is not access
protected. Normal /dev/mem is of course access protected.
To avoid this forbid PROT_NONE mappings or mprotect for high MMIO mappings.
Valid page mappings are allowed because the system is then unsafe anyways.
It's not expected that users commonly use PROT_NONE on MMIO. But to
minimize any impact this is only enforced if the mapping actually refers to
a high MMIO address (defined as the MAX_PA-1 bit being set), and also skip
the check for root.
For mmaps this is straight forward and can be handled in vm_insert_pfn and
in remap_pfn_range().
For mprotect it's a bit trickier. At the point where the actual PTEs are
accessed a lot of state has been changed and it would be difficult to undo
on an error. Since this is a uncommon case use a separate early page talk
walk pass for MMIO PROT_NONE mappings that checks for this condition
early. For non MMIO and non PROT_NONE there are no changes.

change_pte_range is called from task work context to mark PTEs for
receiving NUMA faulting hints. If the marked pages are dirty then
migration may fail. Some filesystems cannot migrate dirty pages without
blocking so are skipped in MIGRATE_ASYNC mode which just wastes CPU.
Even when they can, it can be a waste of cycles when the pages are
shared forcing higher scan rates. This patch avoids marking shared
dirty pages for hinting faults but also will skip a migration if the
page was dirtied after the scanner updated a clean page.
This is most noticeable running the NASA Parallel Benchmark when backed
by btrfs, the default root filesystem for some distributions, but also
noticeable when using XFS.

Time mg.D 107.73 ( 0.00%) 108.22 ( -0.45%)
is.D regresses slightly in terms of absolute time but note that that
particular load varies quite a bit from run to run. The more relevant
observation is the total system CPU usage.
4.16.0-rc4 4.16.0-rc4
schedtip-20180309 nodirty-v1
User 71471.91 70627.04
System 11078.96 8256.13
Elapsed 661.66 632.74
That is a substantial drop in system CPU usage and overall the workload
completes faster. The NUMA balancing statistics are also interesting
NUMA base PTE updates 111407972 139848884
NUMA huge PMD updates 206506 264869
NUMA page range updates 217139044 275461812
NUMA hint faults 4300924 3719784
NUMA hint local faults 3012539 3416618
NUMA hint local percent 70 91
NUMA pages migrated 1517487 1358420
While more PTEs are scanned due to changes in what faults are gathered,
it's clear that a far higher percentage of faults are local as the bulk
of the remote hits were dirty pages that, in this case with btrfs, had
no chance of migrating.
The following is a comparison when using XFS as that is a more realistic
filesystem choice for a data partition
4.16.0-rc4 4.16.0-rc4
schedtip-20180309 nodirty-v1r47
Time cg.D 485.28 ( 0.00%) 442.62 ( 8.79%)
Time ep.D 77.68 ( 0.00%) 77.54 ( 0.18%)
Time is.D 26.44 ( 0.00%) 24.79 ( 6.24%)
Time lu.D 597.46 ( 0.00%) 597.11 ( 0.06%)
Time mg.D 142.65 ( 0.00%) 105.83 ( 25.81%)
That is a reasonable gain on two relatively long-lived workloads. While
not presented, there is also a substantial drop in system CPu usage and
the NUMA balancing stats show similar improvements in locality as btrfs
did.

When protection bits are changed on a VMA, some of the architecture
specific flags should be cleared as well. An examples of this are the
PKEY flags on x86. This patch expands the current code that clears
PKEY flags for x86, to support similar functionality for other
architectures as well.

A protection flag may not be valid across entire address space and
hence arch_validate_prot() might need the address a protection bit is
being set on to ensure it is a valid protection flag. For example, sparc
processors support memory corruption detection (as part of ADI feature)
flag on memory addresses mapped on to physical RAM but not on PFN mapped
pages or addresses mapped on to devices. This patch adds address to the
parameters being passed to arch_validate_prot() so protection bits can
be validated in the relevant context.
