<content type='text'>
The idea comes from a discussion between Linus and Andrea [1].

Before this patch we only allow a page fault to retry once.  We achieved
this by clearing the FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY flag when doing
handle_mm_fault() the second time.  This was majorly used to avoid
unexpected starvation of the system by looping over forever to handle the
page fault on a single page.  However that should hardly happen, and after
all for each code path to return a VM_FAULT_RETRY we'll first wait for a
condition (during which time we should possibly yield the cpu) to happen
before VM_FAULT_RETRY is really returned.

This patch removes the restriction by keeping the FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY
flag when we receive VM_FAULT_RETRY.  It means that the page fault handler
now can retry the page fault for multiple times if necessary without the
need to generate another page fault event.  Meanwhile we still keep the
FAULT_FLAG_TRIED flag so page fault handler can still identify whether a
page fault is the first attempt or not.

Then we'll have these combinations of fault flags (only considering
ALLOW_RETRY flag and TRIED flag):

  - ALLOW_RETRY and !TRIED:  this means the page fault allows to
                             retry, and this is the first try

  - ALLOW_RETRY and TRIED:   this means the page fault allows to
                             retry, and this is not the first try

  - !ALLOW_RETRY and !TRIED: this means the page fault does not allow
                             to retry at all

  - !ALLOW_RETRY and TRIED:  this is forbidden and should never be used

In existing code we have multiple places that has taken special care of
the first condition above by checking against (fault_flags &amp;
FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY).  This patch introduces a simple helper to detect
the first retry of a page fault by checking against both (fault_flags &amp;
FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY) and !(fault_flag &amp; FAULT_FLAG_TRIED) because now
even the 2nd try will have the ALLOW_RETRY set, then use that helper in
all existing special paths.  One example is in __lock_page_or_retry(), now
we'll drop the mmap_sem only in the first attempt of page fault and we'll
keep it in follow up retries, so old locking behavior will be retained.

This will be a nice enhancement for current code [2] at the same time a
supporting material for the future userfaultfd-writeprotect work, since in
that work there will always be an explicit userfault writeprotect retry
for protected pages, and if that cannot resolve the page fault (e.g., when
userfaultfd-writeprotect is used in conjunction with swapped pages) then
we'll possibly need a 3rd retry of the page fault.  It might also benefit
other potential users who will have similar requirement like userfault
write-protection.

GUP code is not touched yet and will be covered in follow up patch.

Although there're tons of arch-specific page fault handlers, most of them
are still sharing the same initial value of the page fault flags.  Say,
merely all of the page fault handlers would allow the fault to be retried,
and they also allow the fault to respond to SIGKILL.

Let's define a default value for the fault flags to replace those initial
page fault flags that were copied over.  With this, it'll be far easier to
introduce new fault flag that can be used by all the architectures instead
of touching all the archs.

Let ARC to use the new helper fault_signal_pending() by moving the signal
check out of the retry logic as standalone.  This should also helps to
simplify the code a bit.

Patch series "elide extraneous generated code for folded p4d/pud/pmd", v3.

This series came out of seemingly benign excursion into
understanding/removing __ARCH_USE_5LEVEL_HACK from ARC port showing some
extraneous code being generated despite folded p4d/pud/pmd

| bloat-o-meter2 vmlinux-[AB]*
| add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 3/0 up/down: 130/0 (130)
| function                                     old     new   delta
| free_pgd_range                               548     660    +112
| p4d_clear_bad                                  2      20     +18

The patches here address that

| bloat-o-meter2 vmlinux-[BF]*
| add/remove: 0/2 grow/shrink: 0/1 up/down: 0/-386 (-386)
| function                                     old     new   delta
| pud_clear_bad                                 20       -     -20
| p4d_clear_bad                                 20       -     -20
| free_pgd_range                               660     314    -346

The code savings are not a whole lot, but still worthwhile IMHO.

This patch (of 5):

With paging code made 5-level compliant, this is no longer needed.  ARC
has software page walker with 2 lookup levels (pgd -&gt; pte)

This was expected to be non functional change but ended with slight
code bloat due to needless inclusions of p*d_free_tlb() macros which
will be addressed in further patches.

| bloat-o-meter2 vmlinux-[AB]*
| add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 2/0 up/down: 128/0 (128)
| function                                     old     new   delta
| free_pgd_range                               546     656    +110
| p4d_clear_bad                                  2      20     +18
| Total: Before=4137148, After=4137276, chg 0.000000%

For MMUv3 (and prior) the flush_tlb_{range,mm,page} API use the MMU
TLBWrite cmd which already nukes the entire uTLB, so NO need for
additional IVUTLB cmd from utlb_invalidate() - hence this patch

local_flush_tlb_all() is special since it uses a weaker TLBWriteNI
cmd (prec commit) to shoot down JTLB, hence we retain the explicit
uTLB flush

<content type='text'>
The unconditional full TLB flush (on say ASID rollover) iterates over each
entry and uses TLBWrite to zero it out. TLBWrite by design also invalidates
the uTLBs thus we end up invalidating it as many times as numbe rof
entries (512 or 1k)

Optimize this by using a weaker TLBWriteNI cmd in loop, which doesn't
tinker with uTLBs and an explicit one time IVUTLB, outside the loop to
invalidate them all once.

And given the optimiztion, the IVUTLB is now needed on MMUv4 too where
the uTLBs and JTLBs are otherwise coherent given the TLBInsertEntry /
TLBDeleteEntry commands
