All relevant architectures had already been converted to the new interface
(which just has an underscore in front of the name - not very imaginative
naming), this just force-converts the stragglers.
The modern interface is almost identical to the old one, except instead of
the page pointer it takes a "struct vm_special_mapping" that describes the
mapping (and contains the page pointer as one member), and it returns the
resulting 'vma' instead of just the error code.
Getting rid of the old interface also gets rid of some special casing,
which had caused problems with the mremap extensions to "struct
vm_special_mapping".

Linus noticed that the error handling in __arch_setup_additional_pages()
fails to clear the mm VDSO pointer if _install_special_mapping() fails.
In practice there should be no actual bug, because if there's an error the
VDSO pointer is cleared later in arch_setup_additional_pages().
However it's no longer necessary to set the pointer before installing the
mapping. Commit c1bab64360 ("powerpc/vdso: Move to
_install_special_mapping() and remove arch_vma_name()") reworked the code
so that the VMA name comes from the vm_special_mapping.name, rather than
relying on arch_vma_name().
So rework the code to only set the VDSO pointer once the mappings have
been installed correctly, and remove the stale comment.

Add an optional close() callback to struct vm_special_mapping. It will be
used, by powerpc at least, to handle unmapping of the VDSO.
Although support for unmapping the VDSO was initially added for CRIU[1],
it is not desirable to guard that support behind
CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE.
There are other known users of unmapping the VDSO which are not related to
CRIU, eg. Valgrind [2] and void-ship [3].
The powerpc arch_unmap() hook has been in place for ~9 years, with no
ifdef, so there may be other unknown users that have come to rely on
unmapping the VDSO. Even if the code was behind an ifdef, major distros
enable CHECKPOINT_RESTORE so users may not realise unmapping the VDSO
depends on that configuration option.
It's also undesirable to have such core mm behaviour behind a relatively
obscure CONFIG option.
Longer term the unmap behaviour should be standardised across
architectures, however that is complicated by the fact the VDSO pointer is
stored differently across architectures. There was a previous attempt to
unify that handling [4], which could be revived.
See [5] for further discussion.

The following scenario can result in a race condition:
Consider a node with the following indices and values
a<------->b<----------->c<--------->d
0xA NULL 0xB
CPU 1 CPU 2
--------- ---------
mas_set_range(a,b)
mas_erase()
-> range is expanded (a,c) because of null expansion
mas_nomem()
mas_unlock()
mas_store_range(b,c,0xC)
The node now looks like:
a<------->b<----------->c<--------->d
0xA 0xC 0xB
mas_lock()
mas_erase() <------ range of erase is still (a,c)
The node is now NULL from (a,c) but the write from CPU 2 should have been
retained and range (b,c) should still have 0xC as its value. We can fix
this by re-intializing to the original index and last. This does not need
a cc: Stable as there are no users of the maple tree which use internal
locking and this condition is only possible with internal locking.

Batch the HVO work, including de-HVO of the source and HVO of the
destination hugeTLB folios, to speed up demotion.
After commit bd225530a4 ("mm/hugetlb_vmemmap: fix race with speculative
PFN walkers"), each request of HVO or de-HVO, batched or not, invokes
synchronize_rcu() once. For example, when not batched, demoting one 1GB
hugeTLB folio to 512 2MB hugeTLB folios invokes synchronize_rcu() 513
times (1 de-HVO plus 512 HVO requests), whereas when batched, only twice
(1 de-HVO plus 1 HVO request). And the performance difference between the
two cases is significant, e.g.,
echo 2048kB >/sys/kernel/mm/hugepages/hugepages-1048576kB/demote_size
time echo 100 >/sys/kernel/mm/hugepages/hugepages-1048576kB/demote
Before this patch:
real 8m58.158s
user 0m0.009s
sys 0m5.900s
After this patch:
real 0m0.900s
user 0m0.000s
sys 0m0.851s
Note that this patch changes the behavior of the `demote` interface when
de-HVO fails. Before, the interface aborts immediately upon failure; now,
it tries to finish an entire batch, meaning it can make extra progress if
the rest of the batch contains folios that do not need to de-HVO.

To allow precise tracking of page caches accessed, add new tracepoints
that trigger when a process actually accesses them.
The ureadahead program used by ChromeOS traces the disk access of programs
as they start up at boot up. It uses mincore(2) or the
'mm_filemap_add_to_page_cache' trace event to accomplish this. It stores
this information in a "pack" file and on subsequent boots, it will read
the pack file and call readahead(2) on the information so that disk
storage can be loaded into RAM before the applications actually need it.
A problem we see is that due to the kernel's readahead algorithm that can
aggressively pull in more data than needed (to try and accomplish the same
goal) and this data is also recorded. The end result is that the pack
file contains a lot of pages on disk that are never actually used.
Calling readahead(2) on these unused pages can slow down the system boot
up times.
To solve this, add 3 new trace events, get_pages, map_pages, and fault.
These will be used to trace the pages are not only pulled in from disk,
but are actually used by the application. Only those pages will be stored
in the pack file, and this helps out the performance of boot up.
With the combination of these 3 new trace events and
mm_filemap_add_to_page_cache, we observed a reduction in the pack file by
7.3% - 20% on ChromeOS varying by device.

This is only relevant to the two archs that support PUD dax, aka, x86_64
and ppc64. PUD THPs do not yet exist elsewhere, and hugetlb PUDs do not
count in this case.
DAX have had PUD mappings for years, but change protection path never
worked. When the path is triggered in any form (a simple test program
would be: call mprotect() on a 1G dev_dax mapping), the kernel will report
"bad pud". This patch should fix that.
The new change_huge_pud() tries to keep everything simple. For example,
it doesn't optimize write bit as that will need even more PUD helpers.
It's not too bad anyway to have one more write fault in the worst case
once for 1G range; may be a bigger thing for each PAGE_SIZE, though.
Neither does it support userfault-wp bits, as there isn't such PUD
mappings that is supported; file mappings always need a split there.
The same to TLB shootdown: the pmd path (which was for x86 only) has the
trick of using _ad() version of pmdp_invalidate*() which can avoid one
redundant TLB, but let's also leave that for later. Again, the larger the
mapping, the smaller of such effect.
There's some difference on handling "retry" for change_huge_pud() (where
it can return 0): it isn't like change_huge_pmd(), as the pmd version is
safe with all conditions handled in change_pte_range() later, thanks to
Hugh's new pte_offset_map_lock(). In short, change_pte_range() is simply
smarter. For that, change_pud_range() will need proper retry if it races
with something else when a huge PUD changed from under us.
The last thing to mention is currently the PUD path ignores the huge pte
numa counter (NUMA_HUGE_PTE_UPDATES), not only because DAX is not
applicable to NUMA, but also that it's ambiguous on its own to decide how
to account pud in this case. In one earlier version of this patchset I
proposed to remove the counter as it doesn't even look right to do the
accounting as of now [1], but then a further discussion suggests we can
leave that for later, as that doesn't block this series if we choose to
ignore that counter. That's what this patch does, by ignoring it.
When at it, touch up the comment in pgtable_split_needed() to make it
generic to either pmd or pud file THPs.

- pud_modify(): this helper applies a new pgprot to an existing huge

For more information on why we need these two helpers, please refer to the
corresponding pmd helpers in the mprotect() code path.
When at it, simplify the pud_modify()/pmd_modify() comments on shadow

When working on mprotect() on 1G dax entries, I hit an zap bad pud error
when zapping a huge pud that is with PROT_NONE permission.
Here the problem is x86's pud_leaf() requires both PRESENT and PSE bits
set to report a pud entry as a leaf, but that doesn't look right, as it's
not following the pXd_leaf() definition that we stick with so far, where
PROT_NONE entries should be reported as leaves.
To fix it, change x86's pud_leaf() implementation to only check against
PSE bit to report a leaf, irrelevant of whether PRESENT bit is set.

mprotect() does mmu notifiers in PMD levels. It's there since 2014 of
commit a5338093bf ("mm: move mmu notifier call from change_protection to
change_pmd_range").
At that time, the issue was that NUMA balancing can be applied on a huge
range of VM memory, even if nothing was populated. The notification can
be avoided in this case if no valid pmd detected, which includes either
THP or a PTE pgtable page.
Now to pave way for PUD handling, this isn't enough. We need to generate
mmu notifications even on PUD entries properly. mprotect() is currently
broken on PUD (e.g., one can easily trigger kernel error with dax 1G
mappings already), this is the start to fix it.
To fix that, this patch proposes to push such notifications to the PUD
layers.
There is risk on regressing the problem Rik wanted to resolve before, but I
think it shouldn't really happen, and I still chose this solution because
of a few reasons:
1) Consider a large VM that should definitely contain more than GBs of
memory, it's highly likely that PUDs are also none. In this case there
will have no regression.
2) KVM has evolved a lot over the years to get rid of rmap walks, which
might be the major cause of the previous soft-lockup. At least TDP MMU
already got rid of rmap as long as not nested (which should be the major
use case, IIUC), then the TDP MMU pgtable walker will simply see empty VM
pgtable (e.g. EPT on x86), the invalidation of a full empty region in
most cases could be pretty fast now, comparing to 2014.
3) KVM has explicit code paths now to even give way for mmu notifiers
just like this one, e.g. in commit d02c357e5b ("KVM: x86/mmu: Retry
fault before acquiring mmu_lock if mapping is changing"). It'll also
avoid contentions that may also contribute to a soft-lockup.
4) Stick with PMD layer simply don't work when PUD is there... We need
one way or another to fix PUD mappings on mprotect().
Pushing it to PUD should be the safest approach as of now, e.g. there's yet
no sign of huge P4D coming on any known archs.

Patch series "mm/mprotect: Fix dax puds", v5.
Dax supports pud pages for a while, but mprotect on puds was missing since
the start. This series tries to fix that by providing pud handling in
mprotect(). The goal is to add more types of pud mappings like hugetlb or
pfnmaps. This series paves way for it by fixing known pud entries.
Considering nobody reported this until when I looked at those other types
of pud mappings, I am thinking maybe it doesn't need to be a fix for
stable and this may not need to be backported. I would guess whoever
cares about mprotect() won't care 1G dax puds yet, vice versa. I hope
fixing that in new kernels would be fine, but I'm open to suggestions.
There're a few small things changed to teach mprotect work on PUDs. E.g.
it will need to start with dropping NUMA_HUGE_PTE_UPDATES which may stop
making sense when there can be more than one type of huge pte. OTOH,
we'll also need to push the mmu notifiers from pmd to pud layers, which
might need some attention but so far I think it's safe. For such details,
please refer to each patch's commit message.
The mprotect() pud process should be straightforward, as I kept it as
simple as possible. There's no NUMA handled as dax simply doesn't support
that. There's also no userfault involvements as file memory (even if work
with userfault-wp async mode) will need to split a pud, so pud entry
doesn't need to yet know userfault's existance (but hugetlb entries will;
that's also for later).
This patch (of 7):
Currently the dax fault handler dumps the vma range when dynamic debugging
enabled. That's mostly not useful. Dump the (aligned) address instead
with the order info.

When non-leaf pmd accessed bits are available, MGLRU page table walks can
clear the non-leaf pmd accessed bit and ignore the accessed bit on the pte
if it's on a different node, skipping a generation update as well. If
another scan occurs on the same node as said skipped pte.
The non-leaf pmd accessed bit might remain cleared and the pte accessed
bits won't be checked. While this is sufficient for reclaim-driven aging,
where the goal is to select a reasonably cold page, the access can be
missed when aging proactively for workingset estimation of a node/memcg.
In more detail, get_pfn_folio returns NULL if the folio's nid != node
under scanning, so the page table walk skips processing of said pte. Now
the pmd_young flag on this pmd is cleared, and if none of the pte's are
accessed before another scan occurs on the folio's node, the pmd_young
check fails and the pte accessed bit is skipped.
Since force_scan disables various other optimizations, we check force_scan
to ignore the non-leaf pmd accessed bit.

Currently, the kernel only accepts memory in get_page_from_freelist(), but
there is another path that directly takes pages from free lists -
__alloc_page_bulk(). This function can consume all accepted memory and
will resort to __alloc_pages_noprof() if necessary.
Conditionally accepted in __alloc_pages_bulk().
The same issue may arise due to deferred page initialization. Kick the
deferred initialization machinery before abandoning the zone, as the
kernel does in get_page_from_freelist().

Patch 2/7 ensures that __alloc_pages_bulk() will not exhaust all
accepted memory without accepting more.
Patches 3/7-5/7 are preparations for patch 6/7, which fixes
alloc_config_page() on machines with unaccepted memory. This allows, for
example, the allocation of gigantic pages at runtime.
Patch 7/7 enables the kernel to accept memory up to the promo watermark.

It is not immediately obvious, but we can move the folio->_nr_pages_mapped
update out of the loop and reduce the number of atomic ops without
affecting the stats.
The important point to realize is that only removing the last PMD mapping
will result in _nr_pages_mapped going below ENTIRELY_MAPPED, not the
individual atomic_inc_return_relaxed() calls. Concurrent races with
removal of PMD mappings should be handled as expected, just like when we
would have such races right now on a single mapcount update.
In a simple munmap() microbenchmark [1] on 1 GiB of memory backed by the
same PTE-mapped folio size (only mapped by a single process such that they
will get completely unmapped), this change results in a speedup (positive
is good) per folio size on a x86-64 Intel machine of roughly (a bit of
noise expected):
* 16 KiB: +10%
* 32 KiB: +15%
* 64 KiB: +17%
* 128 KiB: +21%
* 256 KiB: +22%

Introduce burst mode, which can be configured with kfence.burst=$count,
where the burst count denotes the additional successive slab allocations
to be allocated through KFENCE for each sample interval.
The idea is that this can give developers an additional knob to make
KFENCE more aggressive when debugging specific issues of systems where
either rebooting or recompiling the kernel with KASAN is not possible.
Experiment: To assess the effectiveness of the new option, we randomly
picked a recent out-of-bounds [1] and use-after-free bug [2], each with a
reproducer provided by syzbot, that initially detected these bugs with
KASAN. We then tried to reproduce the bugs with KFENCE below.

| OOB [1] | UAF [2] |
------------------+-------------+-------------+
Default | 0/10 | 0/10 |
Aggressive | 0/10 | 0/10 |
AggressiveBurst | 8/10 | 8/10 |
With the Default and even the Aggressive configs the results are
unsurprising, given KFENCE has not been designed for deterministic bug
detection of small test cases.
However, when enabling burst mode with relatively large burst count,
KFENCE can start to detect heap memory-safety bugs even in simpler test
cases with high probability (in the above cases with ~80% probability).

There is a (harmless) type confusion in lock_vma_under_rcu(): After
vma_start_read(), we have taken the VMA lock but don't know yet whether
the VMA has already been detached and scheduled for RCU freeing. At this
point, ->vm_start and ->vm_end are accessed.
vm_area_struct contains a union such that ->vm_rcu uses the same memory as
->vm_start and ->vm_end; so accessing ->vm_start and ->vm_end of a
detached VMA is illegal and leads to type confusion between union members.
Fix it by reordering the vma->detached check above the address checks, and
document the rules for RCU readers accessing VMAs.
This will probably change the number of observed VMA_LOCK_MISS events
(since previously, trying to access a detached VMA whose ->vm_rcu has been
scheduled would bail out when checking the fault address against the
rcu_head members reinterpreted as VMA bounds).

Currently, there are a couple of issues with our disk swapin tracking for
dynamic zswap shrinker heuristics:
1. We only increment the swapin counter on pivot pages. This means we
are not taking into account pages that also need to be swapped in,
but are already taken care of as part of the readahead window.
2. We are also incrementing when the pages are read from the zswap pool,
which is inaccurate.
This patch rectifies these issues by incrementing the counter whenever we
need to perform a non-zswap read. Note that we are slightly overcounting,
as a page might be read into memory by the readahead algorithm even though
it will not be neeeded by users - however, this is an acceptable
inaccuracy, as the readahead logic itself will adapt to these kind of
scenarios.
To test this change, I built the kernel under a cgroup with its memory.max
set to 2 GB:
real: 236.66s
user: 4286.06s
sys: 652.86s
swapins: 81552
For comparison, with just the new second chance algorithm, the build time
is as follows:
real: 244.85s
user: 4327.22s
sys: 664.39s
swapins: 94663
Without neither:
real: 263.89s
user: 4318.11s
sys: 673.29s
swapins: 227300.5
(average over 5 runs)
With this change, the kernel CPU time reduces by a further 1.7%, and the
real time is reduced by another 3.3%, compared to just the second chance
algorithm by itself. The swapins count also reduces by another 13.85%.
Combinng the two changes, we reduce the real time by 10.32%, kernel CPU
time by 3%, and number of swapins by 64.12%.
To gauge the new scheme's ability to offload cold data, I ran another
benchmark, in which the kernel was built under a cgroup with memory.max
set to 3 GB, but with 0.5 GB worth of cold data allocated before each
build (in a shmem file).
Under the old scheme:
real: 197.18s
user: 4365.08s
sys: 289.02s
zswpwb: 72115.2
Under the new scheme:
real: 195.8s
user: 4362.25s
sys: 290.14s
zswpwb: 87277.8
(average over 5 runs)
Notice that we actually observe a 21% increase in the number of written
back pages - so the new scheme is just as good, if not better at
offloading pages from the zswap pool when they are cold. Build time
reduces by around 0.7% as a result.

Patch series "improving dynamic zswap shrinker protection scheme", v3.
When experimenting with the memory-pressure based (i.e "dynamic") zswap
shrinker in production, we observed a sharp increase in the number of
swapins, which led to performance regression. We were able to trace this
regression to the following problems with the shrinker's warm pages
protection scheme:
1. The protection decays way too rapidly, and the decaying is coupled with
zswap stores, leading to anomalous patterns, in which a small batch of
zswap stores effectively erase all the protection in place for the
warmer pages in the zswap LRU.
This observation has also been corroborated upstream by Takero Funaki
(in [1]).
2. We inaccurately track the number of swapped in pages, missing the
non-pivot pages that are part of the readahead window, while counting
the pages that are found in the zswap pool.
To alleviate these two issues, this patch series improve the dynamic zswap
shrinker in the following manner:
1. Replace the protection size tracking scheme with a second chance
algorithm. This new scheme removes the need for haphazard stats
decaying, and automatically adjusts the pace of pages aging with memory
pressure, and writeback rate with pool activities: slowing down when
the pool is dominated with zswpouts, and speeding up when the pool is
dominated with stale entries.
2. Fix the tracking of the number of swapins to take into account
non-pivot pages in the readahead window.
With these two changes in place, in a kernel-building benchmark without
any cold data added, the number of swapins is reduced by 64.12%. This
translate to a 10.32% reduction in build time. We also observe a 3%
reduction in kernel CPU time.
In another benchmark, with cold data added (to gauge the new algorithm's
ability to offload cold data), the new second chance scheme outperforms
the old protection scheme by around 0.7%, and actually written back around
21% more pages to backing swap device. So the new scheme is just as good,
if not even better than the old scheme on this front as well.

This patch (of 2):
Current zswap shrinker's heuristics to prevent overshrinking is brittle
and inaccurate, specifically in the way we decay the protection size (i.e
making pages in the zswap LRU eligible for reclaim).
We currently decay protection aggressively in zswap_lru_add() calls. This
leads to the following unfortunate effect: when a new batch of pages enter
zswap, the protection size rapidly decays to below 25% of the zswap LRU
size, which is way too low.
We have observed this effect in production, when experimenting with the
zswap shrinker: the rate of shrinking shoots up massively right after a
new batch of zswap stores. This is somewhat the opposite of what we want
originally - when new pages enter zswap, we want to protect both these new
pages AND the pages that are already protected in the zswap LRU.
Replace existing heuristics with a second chance algorithm
1. When a new zswap entry is stored in the zswap pool, its referenced
bit is set.
2. When the zswap shrinker encounters a zswap entry with the referenced
bit set, give it a second chance - only flips the referenced bit and
rotate it in the LRU.
3. If the shrinker encounters the entry again, this time with its
referenced bit unset, then it can reclaim the entry.
In this manner, the aging of the pages in the zswap LRUs are decoupled
from zswap stores, and picks up the pace with increasing memory pressure
(which is what we want).
The second chance scheme allows us to modulate the writeback rate based on
recent pool activities. Entries that recently entered the pool will be
protected, so if the pool is dominated by such entries the writeback rate
will reduce proportionally, protecting the workload's workingset.On the
other hand, stale entries will be written back quickly, which increases
the effective writeback rate.
The referenced bit is added at the hole after the `length` field of struct
zswap_entry, so there is no extra space overhead for this algorithm.
We will still maintain the count of swapins, which is consumed and
subtracted from the lru size in zswap_shrinker_count(), to further
penalize past overshrinking that led to disk swapins. The idea is that
had we considered this many more pages in the LRU active/protected, they
would not have been written back and we would not have had to swapped them
in.
To test this new heuristics, I built the kernel under a cgroup with
memory.max set to 2G, on a host with 36 cores:
With the old shrinker:
real: 263.89s
user: 4318.11s
sys: 673.29s
swapins: 227300.5
With the second chance algorithm:
real: 244.85s
user: 4327.22s
sys: 664.39s
swapins: 94663
(average over 5 runs)
We observe an 1.3% reduction in kernel CPU usage, and around 7.2%
reduction in real time. Note that the number of swapped in pages
dropped by 58%.

The generic mmap_base code tries to leave a gap between the top of the
stack and the mmap base address, but enforces a minimum gap size (MIN_GAP)
of 128MB, which is too large on some setups. In particular, on arm tasks
without ADDR_LIMIT_32BIT, the STACK_TOP value is less than 128MB, so it's
impossible to fit such a gap in.
Only enforce this minimum if MIN_GAP < MAX_GAP, as we'd prefer to honour
MAX_GAP, which is defined proportionally, so scales better and always
leaves us with both _some_ stack space and some room for mmap.
This fixes the usercopy KUnit test suite on 32-bit arm, as it doesn't set
any personality flags so gets the default (in this case 26-bit) task size.
This test can be run with: ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run --arch arm
usercopy --make_options LLVM=1

Let's get rid of another follow_page() user and perform the conversion
under PTL: Note that this is also what follow_page_pte() ends up doing.
Unfortunately we cannot currently optimize out the additional reference,
because arch_make_folio_accessible() must be called with a raised refcount
to protect against concurrent conversion to secure. We can just move the
arch_make_folio_accessible() under the PTL, like follow_page_pte() would.
We'll effectively drop the "writable" check implied by FOLL_WRITE:
follow_page_pte() would also not check that when calling
arch_make_folio_accessible(), so there is no good reason for doing that
here.
We'll lose the secretmem check from follow_page() as well, about which we
shouldn't really care.

Let's get rid of another follow_page() user and perform the UV calls under
PTL -- which likely should be fine.
No need for an additional reference while holding the PTL:
uv_destroy_folio() and uv_convert_from_secure_folio() raise the refcount,
so any concurrent make_folio_secure() would see an unexpted reference and
cannot set PG_arch_1 concurrently.
Do we really need a writable PTE? Likely yes, because the "destroy" part
is, in comparison to the export, a destructive operation. So we'll keep
the writability check for now.
We'll lose the secretmem check from follow_page(). Likely we don't care
about that here.
