2025-03-16mm: make vma cache SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCUSuren Baghdasaryan1-3/+1
To enable SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU for vma cache we need to ensure that object reuse before RCU grace period is over will be detected by lock_vma_under_rcu(). Current checks are sufficient as long as vma is detached before it is freed. The only place this is not currently happening is in exit_mmap(). Add the missing vma_mark_detached() in exit_mmap(). Another issue which might trick lock_vma_under_rcu() during vma reuse is vm_area_dup(), which copies the entire content of the vma into a new one, overriding new vma's vm_refcnt and temporarily making it appear as attached. This might trick a racing lock_vma_under_rcu() to operate on a reused vma if it found the vma before it got reused. To prevent this situation, we should ensure that vm_refcnt stays at detached state (0) when it is copied and advances to attached state only after it is added into the vma tree. Introduce vm_area_init_from() which preserves new vma's vm_refcnt and use it in vm_area_dup(). Since all vmas are in detached state with no current readers when they are freed, lock_vma_under_rcu() will not be able to take vm_refcnt after vma got detached even if vma is reused. vma_mark_attached() in modified to include a release fence to ensure all stores to the vma happen before vm_refcnt gets initialized. Finally, make vm_area_cachep SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU. This will facilitate vm_area_struct reuse and will minimize the number of call_rcu() calls.

2025-03-16mm: prepare lock_vma_under_rcu() for vma reuse possibilitySuren Baghdasaryan1-4/+8
Once we make vma cache SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU, it will be possible for a vma to be reused and attached to another mm after lock_vma_under_rcu() locks the vma. lock_vma_under_rcu() should ensure that vma_start_read() is using the original mm and after locking the vma it should ensure that vma->vm_mm has not changed from under us.

2025-03-16mm: replace vm_lock and detached flag with a reference countSuren Baghdasaryan1-43/+85
rw_semaphore is a sizable structure of 40 bytes and consumes considerable space for each vm_area_struct. However vma_lock has two important specifics which can be used to replace rw_semaphore with a simpler structure: 1. Readers never wait. They try to take the vma_lock and fall back to mmap_lock if that fails. 2. Only one writer at a time will ever try to write-lock a vma_lock because writers first take mmap_lock in write mode. Because of these requirements, full rw_semaphore functionality is not needed and we can replace rw_semaphore and the vma->detached flag with a refcount (vm_refcnt). When vma is in detached state, vm_refcnt is 0 and only a call to vma_mark_attached() can take it out of this state. Note that unlike before, now we enforce both vma_mark_attached() and vma_mark_detached() to be done only after vma has been write-locked. vma_mark_attached() changes vm_refcnt to 1 to indicate that it has been attached to the vma tree. When a reader takes read lock, it increments vm_refcnt, unless the top usable bit of vm_refcnt (0x40000000) is set, indicating presence of a writer. When writer takes write lock, it sets the top usable bit to indicate its presence. If there are readers, writer will wait using newly introduced mm->vma_writer_wait. Since all writers take mmap_lock in write mode first, there can be only one writer at a time. The last reader to release the lock will signal the writer to wake up. refcount might overflow if there are many competing readers, in which case read-locking will fail. Readers are expected to handle such failures. In summary: 1. all readers increment the vm_refcnt; 2. writer sets top usable (writer) bit of vm_refcnt; 3. readers cannot increment the vm_refcnt if the writer bit is set; 4. in the presence of readers, writer must wait for the vm_refcnt to drop to 1 (plus the VMA_LOCK_OFFSET writer bit), indicating an attached vma with no readers; 5. vm_refcnt overflow is handled by the readers. While this vm_lock replacement does not yet result in a smaller vm_area_struct (it stays at 256 bytes due to cacheline alignment), it allows for further size optimization by structure member regrouping to bring the size of vm_area_struct below 192 bytes.

2025-03-16mm: introduce vma_iter_store_attached() to use with attached vmasSuren Baghdasaryan1-0/+14
vma_iter_store() functions can be used both when adding a new vma and when updating an existing one. However for existing ones we do not need to mark them attached as they are already marked that way. With vma->detached being a separate flag, double-marking a vmas as attached or detached is not an issue because the flag will simply be overwritten with the same value. However once we fold this flag into the refcount later in this series, re-attaching or re-detaching a vma becomes an issue since these operations will be incrementing/decrementing a refcount. Introduce vma_iter_store_new() and vma_iter_store_overwrite() to replace vma_iter_store() and avoid re-attaching a vma during vma update. Add assertions in vma_mark_attached()/vma_mark_detached() to catch invalid usage. Update vma tests to check for vma detached state correctness.

2025-03-16mm: mark vma as detached until it's added into vma treeSuren Baghdasaryan1-7/+20
Current implementation does not set detached flag when a VMA is first allocated. This does not represent the real state of the VMA, which is detached until it is added into mm's VMA tree. Fix this by marking new VMAs as detached and resetting detached flag only after VMA is added into a tree. Introduce vma_mark_attached() to make the API more readable and to simplify possible future cleanup when vma->vm_mm might be used to indicate detached vma and vma_mark_attached() will need an additional mm parameter.

2025-03-16mm: move per-vma lock into vm_area_structSuren Baghdasaryan1-12/+16
Back when per-vma locks were introduces, vm_lock was moved out of vm_area_struct in [1] because of the performance regression caused by false cacheline sharing. Recent investigation [2] revealed that the regressions is limited to a rather old Broadwell microarchitecture and even there it can be mitigated by disabling adjacent cacheline prefetching, see [3]. Splitting single logical structure into multiple ones leads to more complicated management, extra pointer dereferences and overall less maintainable code. When that split-away part is a lock, it complicates things even further. With no performance benefits, there are no reasons for this split. Merging the vm_lock back into vm_area_struct also allows vm_area_struct to use SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU later in this patchset. Move vm_lock back into vm_area_struct, aligning it at the cacheline boundary and changing the cache to be cacheline-aligned as well. With kernel compiled using defconfig, this causes VMA memory consumption to grow from 160 (vm_area_struct) + 40 (vm_lock) bytes to 256 bytes: slabinfo before: <name> ... <objsize> <objperslab> <pagesperslab> : ... vma_lock ... 40 102 1 : ... vm_area_struct ... 160 51 2 : ... slabinfo after moving vm_lock: <name> ... <objsize> <objperslab> <pagesperslab> : ... vm_area_struct ... 256 32 2 : ... Aggregate VMA memory consumption per 1000 VMAs grows from 50 to 64 pages, which is 5.5MB per 100000 VMAs. Note that the size of this structure is dependent on the kernel configuration and typically the original size is higher than 160 bytes. Therefore these calculations are close to the worst case scenario. A more realistic vm_area_struct usage before this change is: <name> ... <objsize> <objperslab> <pagesperslab> : ... vma_lock ... 40 102 1 : ... vm_area_struct ... 176 46 2 : ... Aggregate VMA memory consumption per 1000 VMAs grows from 54 to 64 pages, which is 3.9MB per 100000 VMAs. This memory consumption growth can be addressed later by optimizing the vm_lock.

Patch series "reimplement per-vma lock as a refcount", v10. Back when per-vma locks were introduces, vm_lock was moved out of vm_area_struct in [1] because of the performance regression caused by false cacheline sharing. Recent investigation [2] revealed that the regressions is limited to a rather old Broadwell microarchitecture and even there it can be mitigated by disabling adjacent cacheline prefetching, see [3]. Splitting single logical structure into multiple ones leads to more complicated management, extra pointer dereferences and overall less maintainable code. When that split-away part is a lock, it complicates things even further. With no performance benefits, there are no reasons for this split. Merging the vm_lock back into vm_area_struct also allows vm_area_struct to use SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU later in this patchset. This patchset: 1. moves vm_lock back into vm_area_struct, aligning it at the cacheline boundary and changing the cache to be cacheline-aligned to minimize cacheline sharing; 2. changes vm_area_struct initialization to mark new vma as detached until it is inserted into vma tree; 3. replaces vm_lock and vma->detached flag with a reference counter; 4. regroups vm_area_struct members to fit them into 3 cachelines; 5. changes vm_area_struct cache to SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU to allow for their reuse and to minimize call_rcu() calls.

2025-03-16mm: decline to manipulate the refcount on a slab pageMatthew Wilcox (Oracle)1-1/+7
Slab pages now have a refcount of 0, so nobody should be trying to manipulate the refcount on them. Doing so has little effect; the object could be freed and reallocated to a different purpose, although the slab itself would not be until the refcount was put making it behave rather like TYPESAFE_BY_RCU. Unfortunately, __iov_iter_get_pages_alloc() does take a refcount. Fix that to not change the refcount, and make put_page() silently not change the refcount. get_page() warns so that we can fix any other callers that need to be changed. Long-term, networking needs to stop taking a refcount on the pages that it uses and rely on the caller to hold whatever references are necessary to make the memory stable. In the medium term, more page types are going to hav a zero refcount, so we'll want to move get_page() and put_page() out of line.

2025-03-13Revert "fsnotify: generate pre-content permission event on page fault"Amir Goldstein1-1/+0
This reverts commit 8392bc2ff8c8bf7c4c5e6dfa71ccd893a3c046f6. In the use case of buffered write whose input buffer is mmapped file on a filesystem with a pre-content mark, the prefaulting of the buffer can happen under the filesystem freeze protection (obtained in vfs_write()) which breaks assumptions of pre-content hook and introduces potential deadlock of HSM handler in userspace with filesystem freezing. Now that we have pre-content hooks at file mmap() time, disable the pre-content event hooks on page fault to avoid the potential deadlock.

2025-02-27mm: Provide address mask in struct follow_pfnmap_argsAlex Williamson1-0/+2
follow_pfnmap_start() walks the page table for a given address and fills out the struct follow_pfnmap_args in pfnmap_args_setup(). The address mask of the page table level is already provided to this latter function for calculating the pfn. This address mask can also be useful for the caller to determine the extent of the contiguous mapping. For example, vfio-pci now supports huge_fault for pfnmaps and is able to insert pud and pmd mappings. When we DMA map these pfnmaps, ex. PCI MMIO BARs, we iterate follow_pfnmap_start() to get each pfn to test for a contiguous pfn range. Providing the mapping address mask allows us to skip the extent of the mapping level. Assuming a 1GB pud level and 4KB page size, iterations are reduced by a factor of 256K. In wall clock time, mapping a 32GB PCI BAR is reduced from ~1s to <1ms.

2025-02-21fs: avoid mmap sem relocks when coredumping with many missing pagesMateusz Guzik1-1/+1
Dumping processes with large allocated and mostly not-faulted areas is very slow. Borrowing a test case from Tavian Barnes: int main(void) { char *mem = mmap(NULL, 1ULL << 40, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_NORESERVE | MAP_PRIVATE, -1, 0); printf("%p %m\n", mem); if (mem != MAP_FAILED) { mem[0] = 1; } abort(); } That's 1TB of almost completely not-populated area. On my test box it takes 13-14 seconds to dump. The profile shows: - 99.89% 0.00% a.out entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe do_syscall_64 syscall_exit_to_user_mode arch_do_signal_or_restart - get_signal - 99.89% do_coredump - 99.88% elf_core_dump - dump_user_range - 98.12% get_dump_page - 64.19% __get_user_pages - 40.92% gup_vma_lookup - find_vma - mt_find 4.21% __rcu_read_lock 1.33% __rcu_read_unlock - 3.14% check_vma_flags 0.68% vma_is_secretmem 0.61% __cond_resched 0.60% vma_pgtable_walk_end 0.59% vma_pgtable_walk_begin 0.58% no_page_table - 15.13% down_read_killable 0.69% __cond_resched 13.84% up_read 0.58% __cond_resched Almost 29% of the time is spent relocking the mmap semaphore between calls to get_dump_page() which find nothing. Whacking that results in times of 10 seconds (down from 13-14). While here make the thing killable. The real problem is the page-sized iteration and the real fix would patch it up instead. It is left as an exercise for the mm-familiar reader.

Similar to `access_process_vm()` but specific to strings. Also chunks reads by page and utilizes `strscpy()` for handling null termination. The primary motivation for this change is to copy strings from a non-current task/process in BPF. There is already a helper `bpf_copy_from_user_task()`, which uses `access_process_vm()` but one to handle strings would be very helpful.

The pte_free(), pmd_free(), __pud_free() and __p4d_free() in asm-generic/pgalloc.h and the generic __tlb_remove_table() are basically the same, so let's introduce pagetable_dtor_free() to deduplicate them.

2025-01-25mm: pgtable: introduce pagetable_dtor()Qi Zheng1-43/+9
The pagetable_p*_dtor() are exactly the same except for the handling of ptlock. If we make ptlock_free() handle the case where ptdesc->ptl is NULL and remove VM_BUG_ON_PAGE() from pmd_ptlock_free(), we can unify pagetable_p*_dtor() into one function. Let's introduce pagetable_dtor() to do this. Later, pagetable_dtor() will be moved to tlb_remove_ptdesc(), so that ptlock and page table pages can be freed together (regardless of whether RCU is used). This prevents the use-after-free problem where the ptlock is freed immediately but the page table pages is freed later via RCU.

Pull fsnotify pre-content notification support from Jan Kara: "This introduces a new fsnotify event (FS_PRE_ACCESS) that gets generated before a file contents is accessed. The event is synchronous so if there is listener for this event, the kernel waits for reply. On success the execution continues as usual, on failure we propagate the error to userspace. This allows userspace to fill in file content on demand from slow storage. The context in which the events are generated has been picked so that we don't hold any locks and thus there's no risk of a deadlock for the userspace handler. The new pre-content event is available only for users with global CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability (similarly to other parts of fanotify functionality) and it is an administrator responsibility to make sure the userspace event handler doesn't do stupid stuff that can DoS the system. Based on your feedback from the last submission, fsnotify code has been improved and now file->f_mode encodes whether pre-content event needs to be generated for the file so the fast path when nobody wants pre-content event for the file just grows the additional file->f_mode check. As a bonus this also removes the checks whether the old FS_ACCESS event needs to be generated from the fast path. Also the place where the event is generated during page fault has been moved so now filemap_fault() generates the event if and only if there is no uptodate folio in the page cache.

2025-01-13mm: perform all memfd seal checks in a single placeLorenzo Stoakes1-55/+0
We no longer actually need to perform these checks in the f_op->mmap() hook any longer. We already moved the operation which clears VM_MAYWRITE on a read-only mapping of a write-sealed memfd in order to work around the restrictions imposed by commit 5de195060b2e ("mm: resolve faulty mmap_region() error path behaviour"). There is no reason for us not to simply go ahead and additionally check to see if any pre-existing seals are in place here rather than defer this to the f_op->mmap() hook. By doing this we remove more logic from shmem_mmap() which doesn't belong there, as well as doing the same for hugetlbfs_file_mmap(). We also remove dubious shared logic in mm.h which simply does not belong there either. It makes sense to do these checks at the earliest opportunity, we know these are shmem (or hugetlbfs) mappings whose relevant VMA flags will not change from the invoking do_mmap() so there is simply no need to wait. This also means the implementation of further memfd seal flags can be done within mm/memfd.c and also have the opportunity to modify VMA flags as necessary early in the mapping logic.

Convert mm_lock_seq to be seqcount_t and change all mmap_write_lock variants to increment it, in-line with the usual seqcount usage pattern. This lets us check whether the mmap_lock is write-locked by checking mm_lock_seq.sequence counter (odd=locked, even=unlocked). This will be used when implementing mmap_lock speculation functions. As a result vm_lock_seq is also change to be unsigned to match the type of mm_lock_seq.sequence.

2025-01-13mm: pgtable: reclaim empty PTE page in madvise(MADV_DONTNEED)Qi Zheng1-0/+1
Now in order to pursue high performance, applications mostly use some high-performance user-mode memory allocators, such as jemalloc or tcmalloc. These memory allocators use madvise(MADV_DONTNEED or MADV_FREE) to release physical memory, but neither MADV_DONTNEED nor MADV_FREE will release page table memory, which may cause huge page table memory usage. The following are a memory usage snapshot of one process which actually happened on our server: VIRT: 55t RES: 590g VmPTE: 110g In this case, most of the page table entries are empty. For such a PTE page where all entries are empty, we can actually free it back to the system for others to use. As a first step, this commit aims to synchronously free the empty PTE pages in madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) case. We will detect and free empty PTE pages in zap_pte_range(), and will add zap_details.reclaim_pt to exclude cases other than madvise(MADV_DONTNEED). Once an empty PTE is detected, we first try to hold the pmd lock within the pte lock. If successful, we clear the pmd entry directly (fast path). Otherwise, we wait until the pte lock is released, then re-hold the pmd and pte locks and loop PTRS_PER_PTE times to check pte_none() to re-detect whether the PTE page is empty and free it (slow path). For other cases such as madvise(MADV_FREE), consider scanning and freeing empty PTE pages asynchronously in the future. The following code snippet can show the effect of optimization: mmap 50G while (1) { for (; i < 1024 * 25; i++) { touch 2M memory madvise MADV_DONTNEED 2M } } As we can see, the memory usage of VmPTE is reduced: before after VIRT 50.0 GB 50.0 GB RES 3.1 MB 3.1 MB VmPTE 102640 KB 240 KB [zhengqi.arch@bytedance.com: fix uninitialized symbol 'ptl'] Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20241206112348.51570-1-zhengqi.arch@bytedance.com Link: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/224e6a4e-43b5-4080-bdd8-b0a6fb2f0853@stanley.mountain/ Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/92aba2b319a734913f18ba41e7d86a265f0b84e2.1733305182.git.zhengqi.arch@bytedance.com Signed-off-by: Qi Zheng <zhengqi.arch@bytedance.com> Cc: Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org> Cc: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Cc: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com> Cc: David Hildenbrand <david@redhat.com> Cc: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Cc: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Cc: Jann Horn <jannh@google.com> Cc: Lorenzo Stoakes <lorenzo.stoakes@oracle.com> Cc: Matthew Wilcox <willy@infradead.org> Cc: Mel Gorman <mgorman@suse.de> Cc: Muchun Song <muchun.song@linux.dev> Cc: Peter Xu <peterx@redhat.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Will Deacon <will@kernel.org> Cc: Zach O'Keefe <zokeefe@google.com> Cc: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>
2025-01-13mm: abstract get_arg_page() stack expansion and mmap read lockLorenzo Stoakes1-3/+2
Right now fs/exec.c invokes expand_downwards(), an otherwise internal implementation detail of the VMA logic in order to ensure that an arg page can be obtained by get_user_pages_remote(). In order to be able to move the stack expansion logic into mm/vma.c to make it available to userland testing we need to find an alternative approach here. We do so by providing the mmap_read_lock_maybe_expand() function which also helpfully documents what get_arg_page() is doing here and adds an additional check against VM_GROWSDOWN to make explicit that the stack expansion logic is only invoked when the VMA is indeed a downward-growing stack. This allows expand_downwards() to become a static function. Importantly, the VMA referenced by mmap_read_maybe_expand() must NOT be currently user-visible in any way, that is place within an rmap or VMA tree. It must be a newly allocated VMA. This is the case when exec invokes this function.

In commit 158978945f31 ("mm: perform the mapping_map_writable() check after call_mmap()") (and preceding changes in the same series) it became possible to mmap() F_SEAL_WRITE sealed memfd mappings read-only. Commit 5de195060b2e ("mm: resolve faulty mmap_region() error path behaviour") unintentionally undid this logic by moving the mapping_map_writable() check before the shmem_mmap() hook is invoked, thereby regressing this change. This series reworks how we both permit write-sealed mappings being mapped read-only and disallow mprotect() from undoing the write-seal, fixing this regression. We also add a regression test to ensure that we do not accidentally regress this in future. Thanks to Julian Orth for reporting this regression. This patch (of 2): In commit 158978945f31 ("mm: perform the mapping_map_writable() check after call_mmap()") (and preceding changes in the same series) it became possible to mmap() F_SEAL_WRITE sealed memfd mappings read-only. This was previously unnecessarily disallowed, despite the man page documentation indicating that it would be, thereby limiting the usefulness of F_SEAL_WRITE logic. We fixed this by adapting logic that existed for the F_SEAL_FUTURE_WRITE seal (one which disallows future writes to the memfd) to also be used for F_SEAL_WRITE. For background - the F_SEAL_FUTURE_WRITE seal clears VM_MAYWRITE for a read-only mapping to disallow mprotect() from overriding the seal - an operation performed by seal_check_write(), invoked from shmem_mmap(), the f_op->mmap() hook used by shmem mappings. By extending this to F_SEAL_WRITE and critically - checking mapping_map_writable() to determine if we may map the memfd AFTER we invoke shmem_mmap() - the desired logic becomes possible. This is because mapping_map_writable() explicitly checks for VM_MAYWRITE, which we will have cleared. Commit 5de195060b2e ("mm: resolve faulty mmap_region() error path behaviour") unintentionally undid this logic by moving the mapping_map_writable() check before the shmem_mmap() hook is invoked, thereby regressing this change. We reinstate this functionality by moving the check out of shmem_mmap() and instead performing it in do_mmap() at the point at which VMA flags are being determined, which seems in any case to be a more appropriate place in which to make this determination. In order to achieve this we rework memfd seal logic to allow us access to this information using existing logic and eliminate the clearing of VM_MAYWRITE from seal_check_write() which we are performing in do_mmap() instead.

2024-12-18mm: use clear_user_(high)page() for arch with special user folio handlingZi Yan1-0/+18
Some architectures have special handling after clearing user folios: architectures, which set cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() to true, require flushing dcache; arc, which sets cpu_icache_is_aliasing() to true, changes folio->flags to make icache coherent to dcache. So __GFP_ZERO using only clear_page() is not enough to zero user folios and clear_user_(high)page() must be used. Otherwise, user data will be corrupted. Fix it by always clearing user folios with clear_user_(high)page() when cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() is true or cpu_icache_is_aliasing() is true. Rename alloc_zeroed() to user_alloc_needs_zeroing() and invert the logic to clarify its intend.

2024-12-02mm: convert mm_lock_seq to a proper seqcountSuren Baghdasaryan1-6/+6
Convert mm_lock_seq to be seqcount_t and change all mmap_write_lock variants to increment it, in-line with the usual seqcount usage pattern. This lets us check whether the mmap_lock is write-locked by checking mm_lock_seq.sequence counter (odd=locked, even=unlocked). This will be used when implementing mmap_lock speculation functions. As a result vm_lock_seq is also change to be unsigned to match the type of mm_lock_seq.sequence.

Pull iommufd updates from Jason Gunthorpe: "Several new features and uAPI for iommufd: - IOMMU_IOAS_MAP_FILE allows passing in a file descriptor as the backing memory for an iommu mapping. To date VFIO/iommufd have used VMA's and pin_user_pages(), this now allows using memfds and memfd_pin_folios(). Notably this creates a pure folio path from the memfd to the iommu page table where memory is never broken down to PAGE_SIZE. - IOMMU_IOAS_CHANGE_PROCESS moves the pinned page accounting between two processes. Combined with the above this allows iommufd to support a VMM re-start using exec() where something like qemu would exec() a new version of itself and fd pass the memfds/iommufd/etc to the new process. The memfd allows DMA access to the memory to continue while the new process is getting setup, and the CHANGE_PROCESS updates all the accounting. - Support for fault reporting to userspace on non-PRI HW, such as ARM stall-mode embedded devices. - IOMMU_VIOMMU_ALLOC introduces the concept of a HW/driver backed virtual iommu. This will be used by VMMs to access hardware features that are contained with in a VM. The first use is to inform the kernel of the virtual SID to physical SID mapping when issuing SID based invalidation on ARM. Further uses will tie HW features that are directly accessed by the VM, such as invalidation queue assignment and others. - IOMMU_VDEVICE_ALLOC informs the kernel about the mapping of virtual device to physical device within a VIOMMU. Minimially this is used to translate VM issued cache invalidation commands from virtual to physical device IDs. - Enhancements to IOMMU_HWPT_INVALIDATE and IOMMU_HWPT_ALLOC to work with the VIOMMU - ARM SMMuv3 support for nested translation. Using the VIOMMU and VDEVICE the driver can model this HW's behavior for nested translation.

Patch series "page->index removals in mm", v2. As part of shrinking struct page, we need to stop using page->index. This patchset gets rid of most of the remaining references to page->index in mm, as well as increasing the number of functions which take a const folio/page pointer. It shrinks the text segment of mm by a few hundred bytes in my test config, probably mostly from removing calls to compound_head() in page_to_pgoff(). This patch (of 7): Change the function signature to pass in the folio as all three callers have it. This removes a reference to page->index, which we're trying to get rid of. And add kernel-doc.

alloc_tag_sub() takes bytes as opposed to number of pages as argument. Currently pgalloc_tag_copy() passes the number of pages. This fix passes the correct unit, which is the number of bytes allocated.
