We got some late review commits during review of commit b4c9ffb54b32
("mm/khugepaged: remove definition of struct khugepaged_mm_slot"). No
need to keep the old cache name "khugepaged_mm_slot", let's simply use
KMEM_CACHE().

When collapsing a pmd, there are two address in use:
* address points to the start of pmd
* address points to each individual page
Current naming makes it difficult to distinguish these two and is hence
error prone.
Considering the plan to collapse mTHP, name the first one `start_addr' and
the second `addr' for better readability and consistency.

Current code is not correct to get struct khugepaged_mm_slot by
mm_slot_entry() without checking mm_slot is !NULL. There is no problem
reported since slot is the first element of struct khugepaged_mm_slot.
While struct khugepaged_mm_slot is just a wrapper of struct mm_slot, there
is no need to define it.
Remove the definition of struct khugepaged_mm_slot, so there is not chance
to miss use mm_slot_entry().

MADV_COLLAPSE on a file mapping behaves inconsistently depending on if PMD
page table is installed or not.
Consider following example:
p = mmap(NULL, 2UL << 20, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_SHARED, fd, 0);
err = madvise(p, 2UL << 20, MADV_COLLAPSE);
fd is a populated tmpfs file.
The result depends on the address that the kernel returns on mmap(). If
it is located in an existing PMD table, the madvise() will succeed.
However, if the table does not exist, it will fail with -EINVAL.
This occurs because find_pmd_or_thp_or_none() returns SCAN_PMD_NULL when a
page table is missing, which causes collapse_pte_mapped_thp() to fail.
SCAN_PMD_NULL and SCAN_PMD_NONE should be treated the same in
collapse_pte_mapped_thp(): install the PMD leaf entry and allocate page
tables as needed.

Patch series "Expand scope of khugepaged anonymous collapse", v2.
Currently khugepaged does not collapse an anonymous region which does not
have a single writable pte. This is wasteful since a region mapped with
non-writable ptes, for example, non-writable VMAs mapped by the
application, won't benefit from THP collapse.
An additional consequence of this constraint is that MADV_COLLAPSE does
not perform a collapse on a non-writable VMA, and this restriction is
nowhere to be found on the manpage - the restriction itself sounds wrong
to me since the user knows the protection of the memory it has mapped, so
collapsing read-only memory via madvise() should be a choice of the user
which shouldn't be overridden by the kernel.
Therefore, remove this constraint.
On an arm64 bare metal machine, comparing with vanilla 6.17-rc2, an
average of 5% improvement is seen on some mmtests benchmarks, particularly
hackbench, with a maximum improvement of 12%. In the following table, (I)
denotes statistically significant improvement, (R) denotes statistically

changes required by mm-stable material: hugetlb and damon.
|

In general, khugepaged_scan_mm_slot() iterates khugepaged_scan.mm_head list
to get a mm_struct for collapse memory.
Use list_xxx() helper would be more obvious to the list iteration
operation.
No functional change.

When determining which THP orders are eligible for a VMA mapping, we have
previously specified tva_flags, however it turns out it is really not
necessary to treat these as flags.
Rather, we distinguish between distinct modes.
The only case where we previously combined flags was with
TVA_ENFORCE_SYSFS, but we can avoid this by observing that this is the
default, except for MADV_COLLAPSE or an edge cases in
collapse_pte_mapped_thp() and hugepage_vma_revalidate(), and adding a mode
specifically for this case - TVA_FORCED_COLLAPSE.
We have:
* smaps handling for showing "THPeligible"
* Pagefault handling
* khugepaged handling
* Forced collapse handling: primarily MADV_COLLAPSE, but also for
an edge case in collapse_pte_mapped_thp()
Disregarding the edge cases, we only want to ignore sysfs settings only
when we are forcing a collapse through MADV_COLLAPSE, otherwise we want to
enforce it, hence this patch does the following flag to enum conversions:
* TVA_SMAPS | TVA_ENFORCE_SYSFS -> TVA_SMAPS
* TVA_IN_PF | TVA_ENFORCE_SYSFS -> TVA_PAGEFAULT
* TVA_ENFORCE_SYSFS -> TVA_KHUGEPAGED
* 0 -> TVA_FORCED_COLLAPSE
With this change, we immediately know if we are in the forced collapse
case, which will be valuable next.

Patch series "prctl: extend PR_SET_THP_DISABLE to only provide THPs when
advised", v5.
This will allow individual processes to opt-out of THP = "always" into THP
= "madvise", without affecting other workloads on the system. This has
been extensively discussed on the mailing list and has been summarized
very well by David in the first patch which also includes the links to
alternatives, please refer to the first patch commit message for the
motivation for this series.
Patch 1 adds the PR_THP_DISABLE_EXCEPT_ADVISED flag to implement this,
along with the MMF changes.
Patch 2 is a cleanup patch for tva_flags that will allow the forced
collapse case to be transmitted to vma_thp_disabled (which is done in
patch 3).
Patch 4 adds documentation for PR_SET_THP_DISABLE/PR_GET_THP_DISABLE.
Patches 6-7 implement the selftests for PR_SET_THP_DISABLE for completely
disabling THPs (old behaviour) and only enabling it at advise
(PR_THP_DISABLE_EXCEPT_ADVISED).
This patch (of 7):
People want to make use of more THPs, for example, moving from the "never"
system policy to "madvise", or from "madvise" to "always".
While this is great news for every THP desperately waiting to get
allocated out there, apparently there are some workloads that require a
bit of care during that transition: individual processes may need to
opt-out from this behavior for various reasons, and this should be
permitted without needing to make all other workloads on the system
similarly opt-out.
The following scenarios are imaginable:
(1) Switch from "none" system policy to "madvise"/"always", but keep THPs
disabled for selected workloads.
(2) Stay at "none" system policy, but enable THPs for selected
workloads, making only these workloads use the "madvise" or "always"
policy.
(3) Switch from "madvise" system policy to "always", but keep the
"madvise" policy for selected workloads: allocate THPs only when
advised.
(4) Stay at "madvise" system policy, but enable THPs even when not advised
for selected workloads -- "always" policy.
Once can emulate (2) through (1), by setting the system policy to
"madvise"/"always" while disabling THPs for all processes that don't want
THPs. It requires configuring all workloads, but that is a user-space
problem to sort out.
(4) can be emulated through (3) in a similar way.
Back when (1) was relevant in the past, as people started enabling THPs,
we added PR_SET_THP_DISABLE, so relevant workloads that were not ready yet
(i.e., used by Redis) were able to just disable THPs completely. Redis
still implements the option to use this interface to disable THPs
completely.
With PR_SET_THP_DISABLE, we added a way to force-disable THPs for a
workload -- a process, including fork+exec'ed process hierarchy. That
essentially made us support (1): simply disable THPs for all workloads
that are not ready for THPs yet, while still enabling THPs system-wide.
The quest for handling (3) and (4) started, but current approaches
(completely new prctl, options to set other policies per process,
alternatives to prctl -- mctrl, cgroup handling) don't look particularly
promising. Likely, the future will use bpf or something similar to
implement better policies, in particular to also make better decisions
about THP sizes to use, but this will certainly take a while as that work
just started.
Long story short: a simple enable/disable is not really suitable for the
future, so we're not willing to add completely new toggles.
While we could emulate (3)+(4) through (1)+(2) by simply disabling THPs
completely for these processes, this is a step backwards, because these
processes can no longer allocate THPs in regions where THPs were
explicitly advised: regions flagged as VM_HUGEPAGE. Apparently, that
imposes a problem for relevant workloads, because "not THPs" is certainly
worse than "THPs only when advised".
Could we simply relax PR_SET_THP_DISABLE, to "disable THPs unless not
explicitly advised by the app through MAD_HUGEPAGE"? *maybe*, but this
would change the documented semantics quite a bit, and the versatility to
use it for debugging purposes, so I am not 100% sure that is what we want
-- although it would certainly be much easier.
So instead, as an easy way forward for (3) and (4), add an option to
make PR_SET_THP_DISABLE disable *less* THPs for a process.
In essence, this patch:
(A) Adds PR_THP_DISABLE_EXCEPT_ADVISED, to be used as a flag in arg3
of prctl(PR_SET_THP_DISABLE) when disabling THPs (arg2 != 0).
prctl(PR_SET_THP_DISABLE, 1, PR_THP_DISABLE_EXCEPT_ADVISED).
(B) Makes prctl(PR_GET_THP_DISABLE) return 3 if
PR_THP_DISABLE_EXCEPT_ADVISED was set while disabling.
Previously, it would return 1 if THPs were disabled completely. Now
it returns the set flags as well: 3 if PR_THP_DISABLE_EXCEPT_ADVISED
was set.
(C) Renames MMF_DISABLE_THP to MMF_DISABLE_THP_COMPLETELY, to express
the semantics clearly.
Fortunately, there are only two instances outside of prctl() code.
(D) Adds MMF_DISABLE_THP_EXCEPT_ADVISED to express "no THP except for VMAs
with VM_HUGEPAGE" -- essentially "thp=madvise" behavior
Fortunately, we only have to extend vma_thp_disabled().
(E) Indicates "THP_enabled: 0" in /proc/pid/status only if THPs are
disabled completely
Only indicating that THPs are disabled when they are really disabled
completely, not only partially.
For now, we don't add another interface to obtained whether THPs
are disabled partially (PR_THP_DISABLE_EXCEPT_ADVISED was set). If
ever required, we could add a new entry.
The documented semantics in the man page for PR_SET_THP_DISABLE "is
inherited by a child created via fork(2) and is preserved across
execve(2)" is maintained. This behavior, for example, allows for
disabling THPs for a workload through the launching process (e.g., systemd
where we fork() a helper process to then exec()).
For now, MADV_COLLAPSE will *fail* in regions without VM_HUGEPAGE and
VM_NOHUGEPAGE. As MADV_COLLAPSE is a clear advise that user space thinks
a THP is a good idea, we'll enable that separately next (requiring a bit
of cleanup first).
There is currently not way to prevent that a process will not issue
PR_SET_THP_DISABLE itself to re-enable THP. There are not really known
users for re-enabling it, and it's against the purpose of the original
interface. So if ever required, we could investigate just forbidding to
re-enable them, or make this somehow configurable.

As part of the effort to move to mm->flags becoming a bitmap field,
convert existing users to making use of the mm_flags_*() accessors which
will, when the conversion is complete, be the only means of accessing
mm_struct flags.
This will result in the debug output being that of a bitmap output, which
will result in a minor change here, but since this is for debug only, this
should have no bearing.
Otherwise, no functional changes intended.

Commit 8ee53820edfd ("thp: mmu_notifier_test_young") introduced
mmu_notifier_test_young(), but we are passing the wrong address.
In xxx_scan_pmd(), the actual iteration address is "_address" not
"address". We seem to misuse the variable on the very beginning.
Change it to the right one.

The check_pmd_still_valid() call during collapse is currently only
protected by the mmap_lock in write mode, which was sufficient when
pt_reclaim always ran under mmap_lock in read mode. However, since
madvise_dontneed can now execute under a per-VMA lock, this assumption is
no longer valid. As a result, a race condition can occur between collapse
and PT_RECLAIM, potentially leading to a kernel panic.

Use PTE batching to batch process PTEs mapping the same large folio. An
improvement is expected due to batching mapcount manipulation on the
folios, and for arm64 which supports contig mappings, the number of
TLB flushes is also reduced.
Note that we do not need to make a change to the check
"if (folio_page(folio, i) != page)"; if i'th page of the folio is equal
to the first page of our batch, then i + 1, .... i + nr_batch_ptes - 1
pages of the folio will be equal to the corresponding pages of our
batch mapping consecutive pages.

Suppose a folio is under migration, and khugepaged is also trying to
collapse it. collapse_pte_mapped_thp() will retrieve the folio from the
page cache via filemap_lock_folio(), thus taking a reference on the folio
and sleeping on the folio lock, since the lock is held by the migration
path. Migration will then fail in __folio_migrate_mapping ->
folio_ref_freeze. Reduce the probability of such a race happening
(leading to migration failure) by bailing out if we detect a PMD is marked
with a migration entry.
This fixes the migration-shared-anon-thp testcase failure on Apple M3.
Note that, this is not a "fix" since it only reduces the chance of
interference of khugepaged with migration, wherein both the kernel
functionalities are deemed "best-effort".

The madvise code has for the longest time had very confusing code around
the 'prev' VMA pointer passed around various functions which, in all cases
except madvise_update_vma(), is unused and instead simply updated as soon
as the function is invoked.
To compound the confusion, the prev pointer is also used to indicate to
the caller that the mmap lock has been dropped and that we can therefore
not safely access the end of the current VMA (which might have been
updated by madvise_update_vma()).
Clear up this confusion by not setting prev = vma anywhere except in
madvise_walk_vmas(), update all references to prev which will always be
equal to vma after madvise_vma_behavior() is invoked, and adding a flag to
indicate that the lock has been dropped to make this explicit.
Additionally, drop a redundant BUG_ON() from madvise_collapse(), which is
simply reiterating the BUG_ON(mmap_locked) above it (note that BUG_ON() is
not appropriate here, but we leave existing code as-is).
We finally adjust the madvise_walk_vmas() logic to be a little clearer -
delaying the assignment of the end of the range to the start of the new
range until the last moment and handling the lock being dropped scenario
immediately.
Additionally add some explanatory comments.

The pmd_devmap() check in check_pmd_state() is redundant because the only
user of pmd_devmap were device dax and fs dax. However all callers of
check_pmd_state() first call thp_vma_allowable_order() to check if the vma
should be scanned. Except when called from a page fault this always
returns 0 for dax vma's, hence we would never expect to see a pmd_devmap
entry.

The core kernel code is currently very inconsistent in its use of
vm_flags_t vs. unsigned long. This prevents us from changing the type of
vm_flags_t in the future and is simply not correct, so correct this.
While this results in rather a lot of churn, it is a critical
pre-requisite for a future planned change to VMA flag type.
Additionally, update VMA userland tests to account for the changes.
To make review easier and to break things into smaller parts, driver and
architecture-specific changes is left for a subsequent commit.
The code has been adjusted to cascade the changes across all calling code
as far as is needed.
We will adjust architecture-specific and driver code in a subsequent patch.
Overall, this patch does not introduce any functional change.

hpage_collapse_scan_file() calls is_refcount_suitable(), which in turn
calls folio_mapcount(). folio_mapcount() checks folio_test_large() before
proceeding to folio_large_mapcount(), but there is a race window where the
folio may get split/freed between these checks, triggering:
VM_WARN_ON_FOLIO(!folio_test_large(folio), folio)
Take a temporary reference to the folio in hpage_collapse_scan_file().
This stabilizes the folio during refcount check and prevents incorrect
large folio detection due to concurrent split/free. Use helper
folio_expected_ref_count() + 1 to compare with folio_ref_count() instead
of using is_refcount_suitable().

Originally, the file pages collapse was intended for tmpfs/shmem to merge
into THP in the background. However, now not only tmpfs/shmem can support
large folios, but some other file systems (such as XFS, erofs ...) also
support large folios. Therefore, it is time to decouple the support of
file folios collapse from SHMEM.

In do_set_pmd(), we always use the folio->page to build PMD mappings for
the entire folio. Since all callers of do_set_pmd() already hold a stable
folio, converting do_set_pmd() to take a folio is safe and more
straightforward.
In addition, to ensure the extensibility of do_set_pmd() for supporting
larger folios beyond PMD size, we keep the 'page' parameter to specify
which page within the folio should be mapped.
No functional changes expected.

We've already gotten the stable locked folio in collapse_pte_mapped_thp(),
so just use folio for set_huge_pmd() to set the PMD entry, which is more
straightforward.
Moreover, we will check the folio size in do_set_pmd(), so we can remove
the unnecessary VM_BUG_ON() in set_huge_pmd(). While we are at it, we can
also remove the PageTransHuge(), as it currently has no callers.

free_page_and_swap_cache() takes a struct page pointer as input parameter,
but it will immediately convert it to folio and all operations following
within use folio instead of page. It makes more sense to pass in folio
directly.
Convert free_page_and_swap_cache() to free_folio_and_swap_cache() to
consume folio directly.

Let's reuse our new MM ownership tracking infrastructure for large folios
to make folio_likely_mapped_shared() never return false negatives -- never
indicating "not mapped shared" although the folio *is* mapped shared.
With that, we can rename it to folio_maybe_mapped_shared() and get rid of
the dependency on the mapcount of the first folio page.
The semantics are now arguably clearer: no mixture of "false negatives"
and "false positives", only the remaining possibility for "false
positives".
Thoroughly document the new semantics. We might now detect that a large
folio is "maybe mapped shared" although it *no longer* is -- but once was.
Now, if more than two MMs mapped a folio at the same time, and the MM
mapping the folio exclusively at the end is not one tracked in the two
folio MM slots, we will detect the folio as "maybe mapped shared".
For anonymous folios, usually (except weird corner cases) all PTEs that
target a "maybe mapped shared" folio are R/O. As soon as a child process
would write to them (iow, actively use them), we would CoW and effectively
replace these PTEs. Most cases (below) are not expected to really matter
with large anonymous folios for this reason.
Most importantly, there will be no change at all for:
* small folios
* hugetlb folios
* PMD-mapped PMD-sized THPs (single mapping)
This change has the potential to affect existing callers of
folio_likely_mapped_shared() -> folio_maybe_mapped_shared():
(1) fs/proc/task_mmu.c: no change (hugetlb)
(2) khugepaged counts PTEs that target shared folios towards
max_ptes_shared (default: HPAGE_PMD_NR / 2), meaning we could skip a
collapse where we would have previously collapsed. This only applies
to anonymous folios and is not expected to matter in practice.
Worth noting that this change sorts out case (A) documented in
commit 1bafe96e89f0 ("mm/khugepaged: replace page_mapcount() check by
folio_likely_mapped_shared()") by removing the possibility for "false
negatives".
(3) MADV_COLD / MADV_PAGEOUT / MADV_FREE will not try splitting
PTE-mapped THPs that are considered shared but not fully covered by
the requested range, consequently not processing them.
PMD-mapped PMD-sized THP are not affected, or when all PTEs are
covered. These functions are usually only called on anon/file folios
that are exclusively mapped most of the time (no other file mappings
or no fork()), so the "false negatives" are not expected to matter in
practice.
(4) mbind() / migrate_pages() / move_pages() will refuse to migrate
shared folios unless MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL is effective (requires
CAP_SYS_NICE). We will now reject some folios that could be migrated.
Similar to (3), especially with MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL, so this is not
expected to matter in practice.
Note that cpuset_migrate_mm_workfn() calls do_migrate_pages() with
MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL.
(5) NUMA hinting
mm/migrate.c:migrate_misplaced_folio_prepare() will skip file
folios that are probably shared libraries (-> "mapped shared" and
executable). This check would have detected it as a shared library at
some point (at least 3 MMs mapping it), so detecting it afterwards
does not sound wrong (still a shared library). Not expected to
matter.
mm/memory.c:numa_migrate_check() will indicate TNF_SHARED in
MAP_SHARED file mappings when encountering a shared folio. Similar
reasoning, not expected to matter.
mm/mprotect.c:change_pte_range() will skip folios detected as
shared in CoW mappings. Similarly, this is not expected to matter in
practice, but if it would ever be a problem we could relax that check
a bit (e.g., basing it on the average page-mapcount in a folio),
because it was only an optimization when many (e.g., 288) processes
were mapping the same folios -- see commit 859d4adc3415 ("mm: numa: do
not trap faults on shared data section pages.")
(6) mm/rmap.c:folio_referenced_one() will skip exclusive swapbacked
folios in dying processes. Applies to anonymous folios only. Without
"false negatives", we'll now skip all actually shared ones. Skipping
ones that are actually exclusive won't really matter, it's a pure
optimization, and is not expected to matter in practice.
In theory, one can detect the problematic scenario: folio_mapcount() > 0
and no folio MM slot is occupied ("state unknown"). One could reset the
MM slots while doing an rmap walk, which migration / folio split already
do when setting everything up. Further, when batching PTEs we might
naturally learn about a owner (e.g., folio_mapcount() == nr_ptes) and
could update the owner. However, we'll defer that until the scenarios
where it would really matter are clear.

This indicates that the pgoff is unaligned. After analysis, I confirm the
vma is mapped to /dev/zero. Such a vma certainly has vm_file, but it is
set to anonymous by mmap_zero(). So even if it's mmapped by 2m-unaligned,
it can pass the check in thp_vma_allowable_order() as it is an
anonymous-mmap, but then be collapsed as a file-mmap.
It seems the problem has existed for a long time, but actually, since we
have khugepaged_max_ptes_none check before, we will skip collapse it as it
is /dev/zero and so has no present page. But commit d8ea7cc8547c limit
the check for only khugepaged, so the BUG_ON() can be triggered by
madvise_collapse().
Add vma_is_anonymous() check to make such vma be processed by
hpage_collapse_scan_pmd().

Patch series "synchronously scan and reclaim empty user PTE pages", v4.
Previously, we tried to use a completely asynchronous method to reclaim
empty user PTE pages [1]. After discussing with David Hildenbrand, we
decided to implement synchronous reclaimation in the case of
madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) as the first step.
So this series 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).
In zap_pte_range(), mmu_gather is used to perform batch tlb flushing and
page freeing operations. Therefore, if we want to free the empty PTE page
in this path, the most natural way is to add it to mmu_gather as well.
Now, if CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE is selected, mmu_gather will free
page table pages by semi RCU:
- batch table freeing: asynchronous free by RCU
- single table freeing: IPI + synchronous free
But this is not enough to free the empty PTE page table pages in paths
other that munmap and exit_mmap path, because IPI cannot be synchronized
with rcu_read_lock() in pte_offset_map{_lock}(). So we should let single
table also be freed by RCU like batch table freeing.
As a first step, we supported this feature on x86_64 and selectd the newly
introduced CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_PT_RECLAIM.
For other cases such as madvise(MADV_FREE), consider scanning and freeing
empty PTE pages asynchronously in the future.
Note: issues related to TLB flushing are not new to this series and are tracked
in the separate RFC patch [3]. And more context please refer to this
thread [4].

This patch (of 11):
In retract_page_tables(), the lock of new_folio is still held, we will be
blocked in the page fault path, which prevents the pte entries from being
set again. So even though the old empty PTE page may be concurrently
freed and a new PTE page is filled into the pmd entry, it is still empty
and can be removed.
So just refactor the retract_page_tables() a little bit and recheck the
pmd state after holding the pmd lock.

Since commit 5abc1e37afa0 ("mm: list_lru: allocate list_lru_one only when
needed"), all list_lru users need to allocate the items using the new
infrastructure that provides list_lru info for slab allocation, ensuring
that the corresponding memcg list_lru is allocated before use.
For workingset shadow nodes (which are xa_node), users are converted to
use the new infrastructure by commit 9bbdc0f32409 ("xarray: use
kmem_cache_alloc_lru to allocate xa_node"). The xas->xa_lru will be set
correctly for filemap users. However, there is a missing case: xa_node
allocations caused by madvise(..., MADV_COLLAPSE).
madvise(..., MADV_COLLAPSE) will also read in the absent parts of file
map, and there will be xa_nodes allocated for the caller's memcg (assuming
it's not rootcg). However, these allocations won't trigger memcg list_lru
allocation because the proper xas info was not set.
If nothing else has allocated other xa_nodes for that memcg to trigger
list_lru creation, and memory pressure starts to evict file pages,
workingset_update_node will try to add these xa_nodes to their
corresponding memcg list_lru, and it does not exist (NULL). So they will
be added to rootcg's list_lru instead.
This shouldn't be a significant issue in practice, but it is indeed
unexpected behavior, and these xa_nodes will not be reclaimed effectively.
And may lead to incorrect counting of the list_lru->nr_items counter.
This problem wasn't exposed until recent commit 28e98022b31ef
("mm/list_lru: simplify reparenting and initial allocation") added a
sanity check: only dying memcg could have a NULL list_lru when
list_lru_{add,del} is called. This problem triggered this WARNING.
So make madvise(..., MADV_COLLAPSE) also call xas_set_lru() to pass the
list_lru which we may want to insert xa_node into later. And move
mapping_set_update to mm/internal.h, and turn into a macro to avoid
including extra headers in mm/internal.h.

In collapse_pte_mapped_thp(), we may modify the pte and pmd entry after
acquiring the ptl, so convert it to using pte_offset_map_rw_nolock(). At
this time, the pte_same() check is not performed after the PTL held. So
we should get pgt_pmd and do pmd_same() check after the ptl held.

The types of mm flags are now far beyond the core dump related features.
This patch moves mm flags from linux/sched/coredump.h to linux/mm_types.h.
The linux/sched/coredump.h has include the mm_types.h, so the C files
related to coredump does not need to change head file inclusion. In
addition, the inclusion of sched/coredump.h now can be deleted from the C
files that irrelevant to core dump.

Shmem has a separate interface (different from anonymous pages) to control
huge page allocation, that means shmem THP can be enabled while anonymous
THP is disabled. However, in this case, khugepaged will not start to
collapse shmem THP, which is unreasonable.
To fix this issue, we should call start_stop_khugepaged() to activate or
deactivate the khugepaged thread when setting shmem mTHP interfaces.
Moreover, add a new helper shmem_hpage_pmd_enabled() to help to check
whether shmem THP is enabled, which will determine if khugepaged should be
activated.

Khugepaged already supports collapsing file large folios (including shmem
mTHP) by commit 7de856ffd007 ("mm: khugepaged: support shmem mTHP
collapse"), and the control parameters in khugepaged:
'khugepaged_max_ptes_swap' and 'khugepaged_max_ptes_none', still compare
based on PTE granularity to determine whether a file collapse is needed.
However, the statistics for 'present' and 'swap' in
hpage_collapse_scan_file() do not take into account the large folios,
which may lead to incorrect judgments regarding the
khugepaged_max_ptes_swap/none parameters, resulting in unnecessary file
collapses.
To fix this issue, take into account the large folios' statistics for
'present' and 'swap' variables in the hpage_collapse_scan_file().

The "addr" and "is_shmem" arguments have different order in TP_PROTO and
TP_ARGS. This resulted in the incorrect trace result:
text-hugepage-644429 [276] 392092.878683: mm_khugepaged_collapse_file:
mm=0xffff20025d52c440, hpage_pfn=0x200678c00, index=512, addr=1, is_shmem=0,
filename=text-hugepage, nr=512, result=failed
The value of "addr" is wrong because it was treated as bool value, the
type of is_shmem.
Fix the order in TP_PROTO to keep "addr" is before "is_shmem" since the
original patch review suggested this order to achieve best packing.
And use "lx" for "addr" instead of "ld" in TP_printk because address is
typically shown in hex.
After the fix, the trace result looks correct:

Take the end of a file write into consideration when deciding whether or

This allows large writes that append to the end of a file to automatically
use large pages.

This is an attempt to mitigate the issue of running out of memory when THP
is always enabled. During runtime whenever a THP is being faulted in
(__do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page) or collapsed by khugepaged
(collapse_huge_page), the THP is added to _deferred_list. Whenever memory
reclaim happens in linux, the kernel runs the deferred_split shrinker
which goes through the _deferred_list.
If the folio was partially mapped, the shrinker attempts to split it. If
the folio is not partially mapped, the shrinker checks if the THP was
underused, i.e. how many of the base 4K pages of the entire THP were
zero-filled. If this number goes above a certain threshold (decided by
/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/khugepaged/max_ptes_none), the
shrinker will attempt to split that THP. Then at remap time, the pages
that were zero-filled are mapped to the shared zeropage, hence saving
memory.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- In the series "mm: Avoid possible overflows in dirty throttling" Jan
Kara addresses a couple of issues in the writeback throttling code.
These fixes are also targetted at -stable kernels.
- Ryusuke Konishi's series "nilfs2: fix potential issues related to
reserved inodes" does that. This should actually be in the
mm-nonmm-stable tree, along with the many other nilfs2 patches. My
bad.
- More folio conversions from Kefeng Wang in the series "mm: convert to
folio_alloc_mpol()"
- Kemeng Shi has sent some cleanups to the writeback code in the series
"Add helper functions to remove repeated code and improve readability
of cgroup writeback"
- Kairui Song has made the swap code a little smaller and a little
faster in the series "mm/swap: clean up and optimize swap cache
index".
- In the series "mm/memory: cleanly support zeropage in
vm_insert_page*(), vm_map_pages*() and vmf_insert_mixed()" David
Hildenbrand has reworked the rather sketchy handling of the use of
the zeropage in MAP_SHARED mappings. I don't see any runtime effects
here - more a cleanup/understandability/maintainablity thing.
- Dev Jain has improved selftests/mm/va_high_addr_switch.c's handling
of higher addresses, for aarch64. The (poorly named) series is
"Restructure va_high_addr_switch".
- The core TLB handling code gets some cleanups and possible slight
optimizations in Bang Li's series "Add update_mmu_tlb_range() to
simplify code".
- Jane Chu has improved the handling of our
fake-an-unrecoverable-memory-error testing feature MADV_HWPOISON in
the series "Enhance soft hwpoison handling and injection".
- Jeff Johnson has sent a billion patches everywhere to add
MODULE_DESCRIPTION() to everything. Some landed in this pull.
- In the series "mm: cleanup MIGRATE_SYNC_NO_COPY mode", Kefeng Wang
has simplified migration's use of hardware-offload memory copying.
- Yosry Ahmed performs more folio API conversions in his series "mm:
zswap: trivial folio conversions".
- In the series "large folios swap-in: handle refault cases first",
Chuanhua Han inches us forward in the handling of large pages in the
swap code. This is a cleanup and optimization, working toward the end
objective of full support of large folio swapin/out.
- In the series "mm,swap: cleanup VMA based swap readahead window
calculation", Huang Ying has contributed some cleanups and a possible
fixlet to his VMA based swap readahead code.
- In the series "add mTHP support for anonymous shmem" Baolin Wang has
taught anonymous shmem mappings to use multisize THP. By default this
is a no-op - users must opt in vis sysfs controls. Dramatic
improvements in pagefault latency are realized.
- David Hildenbrand has some cleanups to our remaining use of
page_mapcount() in the series "fs/proc: move page_mapcount() to
fs/proc/internal.h".
- David also has some highmem accounting cleanups in the series
"mm/highmem: don't track highmem pages manually".
- Build-time fixes and cleanups from John Hubbard in the series
"cleanups, fixes, and progress towards avoiding "make headers"".
- Cleanups and consolidation of the core pagemap handling from Barry
Song in the series "mm: introduce pmd|pte_needs_soft_dirty_wp helpers
and utilize them".
- Lance Yang's series "Reclaim lazyfree THP without splitting" has
reduced the latency of the reclaim of pmd-mapped THPs under fairly
common circumstances. A 10x speedup is seen in a microbenchmark.
It does this by punting to aother CPU but I guess that's a win unless
all CPUs are pegged.
- hugetlb_cgroup cleanups from Xiu Jianfeng in the series
"mm/hugetlb_cgroup: rework on cftypes".
- Miaohe Lin's series "Some cleanups for memory-failure" does just that
thing.
- Someone other than SeongJae has developed a DAMON feature in Honggyu
Kim's series "DAMON based tiered memory management for CXL memory".
This adds DAMON features which may be used to help determine the
efficiency of our placement of CXL/PCIe attached DRAM.
- DAMON user API centralization and simplificatio work in SeongJae
Park's series "mm/damon: introduce DAMON parameters online commit
function".
- In the series "mm: page_type, zsmalloc and page_mapcount_reset()"
David Hildenbrand does some maintenance work on zsmalloc - partially
modernizing its use of pageframe fields.
- Kefeng Wang provides more folio conversions in the series "mm: remove
page_maybe_dma_pinned() and page_mkclean()".
- More cleanup from David Hildenbrand, this time in the series
"mm/memory_hotplug: use PageOffline() instead of PageReserved() for
!ZONE_DEVICE". It "enlightens memory hotplug more about PageOffline()
pages" and permits the removal of some virtio-mem hacks.
- Barry Song's series "mm: clarify folio_add_new_anon_rmap() and
__folio_add_anon_rmap()" is a cleanup to the anon folio handling in
preparation for mTHP (multisize THP) swapin.
- Kefeng Wang's series "mm: improve clear and copy user folio"
implements more folio conversions, this time in the area of large
folio userspace copying.
- The series "Docs/mm/damon/maintaier-profile: document a mailing tool
and community meetup series" tells people how to get better involved
with other DAMON developers. From SeongJae Park.
- A large series ("kmsan: Enable on s390") from Ilya Leoshkevich does
that.
- David Hildenbrand sends along more cleanups, this time against the
migration code. The series is "mm/migrate: move NUMA hinting fault
folio isolation + checks under PTL".
- Jan Kara has found quite a lot of strangenesses and minor errors in
the readahead code. He addresses this in the series "mm: Fix various
readahead quirks".
- SeongJae Park's series "selftests/damon: test DAMOS tried regions and
{min,max}_nr_regions" adds features and addresses errors in DAMON's
self testing code.
- Gavin Shan has found a userspace-triggerable WARN in the pagecache
code. The series "mm/filemap: Limit page cache size to that supported
by xarray" addresses this. The series is marked cc:stable.
- Chengming Zhou's series "mm/ksm: cmp_and_merge_page() optimizations
and cleanup" cleans up and slightly optimizes KSM.
- Roman Gushchin has separated the memcg-v1 and memcg-v2 code - lots of
code motion. The series (which also makes the memcg-v1 code
Kconfigurable) are "mm: memcg: separate legacy cgroup v1 code and put
under config option" and "mm: memcg: put cgroup v1-specific memcg
data under CONFIG_MEMCG_V1"
- Dan Schatzberg's series "Add swappiness argument to memory.reclaim"
adds an additional feature to this cgroup-v2 control file.
- The series "Userspace controls soft-offline pages" from Jiaqi Yan
permits userspace to stop the kernel's automatic treatment of
excessive correctable memory errors. In order to permit userspace to
monitor and handle this situation.
- Kefeng Wang's series "mm: migrate: support poison recover from
migrate folio" teaches the kernel to appropriately handle migration
from poisoned source folios rather than simply panicing.
- SeongJae Park's series "Docs/damon: minor fixups and improvements"
does those things.
- In the series "mm/zsmalloc: change back to per-size_class lock"
Chengming Zhou improves zsmalloc's scalability and memory
utilization.
- Vivek Kasireddy's series "mm/gup: Introduce memfd_pin_folios() for
pinning memfd folios" makes the GUP code use FOLL_PIN rather than
bare refcount increments. So these paes can first be moved aside if
they reside in the movable zone or a CMA block.
- Andrii Nakryiko has added a binary ioctl()-based API to
/proc/pid/maps for much faster reading of vma information. The series
is "query VMAs from /proc/<pid>/maps".
- In the series "mm: introduce per-order mTHP split counters" Lance

Since the introduction of mTHP, the docuementation has stated that
khugepaged would be enabled when any mTHP size is enabled, and disabled
when all mTHP sizes are disabled. There are 2 problems with this; 1.
this is not what was implemented by the code and 2. this is not the
desirable behavior.
Desirable behavior is for khugepaged to be enabled when any PMD-sized THP
is enabled, anon or file. (Note that file THP is still controlled by the
top-level control so we must always consider that, as well as the PMD-size
mTHP control for anon). khugepaged only supports collapsing to PMD-sized
THP so there is no value in enabling it when PMD-sized THP is disabled.
So let's change the code and documentation to reflect this policy.
Further, per-size enabled control modification events were not previously
forwarded to khugepaged to give it an opportunity to start or stop.
Consequently the following was resulting in khugepaged eroneously not
being activated:
echo never > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled
echo always > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/hugepages-2048kB/enabled

Patch series "mm: clarify folio_add_new_anon_rmap() and
__folio_add_anon_rmap()", v2.
This patchset is preparatory work for mTHP swapin.
folio_add_new_anon_rmap() assumes that new anon rmaps are always
exclusive. However, this assumption doesn’t hold true for cases like
do_swap_page(), where a new anon might be added to the swapcache and is
not necessarily exclusive.
The patchset extends the rmap flags to allow folio_add_new_anon_rmap() to
handle both exclusive and non-exclusive new anon folios. The
do_swap_page() function is updated to use this extended API with rmap
flags. Consequently, all new anon folios now consistently use
folio_add_new_anon_rmap(). The special case for !folio_test_anon() in
__folio_add_anon_rmap() can be safely removed.
In conclusion, new anon folios always use folio_add_new_anon_rmap(),
regardless of exclusivity. Old anon folios continue to use
__folio_add_anon_rmap() via folio_add_anon_rmap_pmd() and
folio_add_anon_rmap_ptes().
This patch (of 3):
In the case of a swap-in, a new anonymous folio is not necessarily
exclusive. This patch updates the rmap flags to allow a new anonymous
folio to be treated as either exclusive or non-exclusive. To maintain the
existing behavior, we always use EXCLUSIVE as the default setting.

opening for write performs:
if (f->f_mode & FMODE_WRITE) {
[snip]
smp_mb();
if (filemap_nr_thps(inode->i_mapping)) {
[snip]
}
}
filemap_nr_thps on kernels built without CONFIG_READ_ONLY_THP_FOR
expands to 0, allowing the compiler to eliminate the entire thing, with
exception of the fence (and the branch leading there).
So happens required synchronisation between i_writecount and nr_thps
changes is already provided by the full fence coming from
get_write_access -> atomic_inc_unless_negative, thus the smp_mb instance
above can be removed regardless of CONFIG_READ_ONLY_THP_FOR.
While I updated commentary in places claiming to match the now-removed
fence, I did not try to patch them to act on the compile option.
I did not bother benchmarking it, not issuing a spurious full fence in
the fast path does not warrant justification from perf standpoint.

We want to limit the use of page_mapcount() to places where absolutely
required, to prepare for kernel configs where we won't keep track of
per-page mapcounts in large folios.
khugepaged is one of the remaining "more challenging" page_mapcount()
users, but we might be able to move away from page_mapcount() without
resulting in a significant behavior change that would warrant
special-casing based on kernel configs.
In 2020, we first added support to khugepaged for collapsing COW-shared
pages via commit 9445689f3b61 ("khugepaged: allow to collapse a page
shared across fork"), followed by support for collapsing PTE-mapped THP in
commit 5503fbf2b0b8 ("khugepaged: allow to collapse PTE-mapped compound
pages") and limiting the memory waste via the "page_count() > 1" check in
commit 71a2c112a0f6 ("khugepaged: introduce 'max_ptes_shared' tunable").
As a default, khugepaged will allow up to half of the PTEs to map shared
pages: where page_mapcount() > 1. MADV_COLLAPSE ignores the khugepaged
setting.
khugepaged does currently not care about swapcache page references, and
does not check under folio lock: so in some corner cases the "shared vs.
exclusive" detection might be a bit off, making us detect "exclusive" when
it's actually "shared".
Most of our anonymous folios in the system are usually exclusive. We
frequently see sharing of anonymous folios for a short period of time,
after which our short-lived suprocesses either quit or exec().
There are some famous examples, though, where child processes exist for a
long time, and where memory is COW-shared with a lot of processes
(webservers, webbrowsers, sshd, ...) and COW-sharing is crucial for
reducing the memory footprint. We don't want to suddenly change the
behavior to result in a significant increase in memory waste.
Interestingly, khugepaged will only collapse an anonymous THP if at least
one PTE is writable. After fork(), that means that something (usually a
page fault) populated at least a single exclusive anonymous THP in that
PMD range.
So ... what happens when we switch to "is this folio mapped shared"
instead of "is this page mapped shared" by using
folio_likely_mapped_shared()?
For "not-COW-shared" folios, small folios and for THPs (large folios) that
are completely mapped into at least one process, switching to
folio_likely_mapped_shared() will not result in a change.
We'll only see a change for COW-shared PTE-mapped THPs that are partially
mapped into all involved processes.
There are two cases to consider:
(A) folio_likely_mapped_shared() returns "false" for a PTE-mapped THP
If the folio is detected as exclusive, and it actually is exclusive,
there is no change: page_mapcount() == 1. This is the common case
without fork() or with short-lived child processes.
folio_likely_mapped_shared() might currently still detect a folio as
exclusive although it is shared (false negatives): if the first page is
not mapped multiple times and if the average per-page mapcount is smaller
than 1, implying that (1) the folio is partially mapped and (2) if we are
responsible for many mapcounts by mapping many pages others can't
("mostly exclusive") (3) if we are not responsible for many mapcounts by
mapping little pages ("mostly shared") it won't make a big impact on the
end result.
So while we might now detect a page as "exclusive" although it isn't,
it's not expected to make a big difference in common cases.
(B) folio_likely_mapped_shared() returns "true" for a PTE-mapped THP
folio_likely_mapped_shared() will never detect a large anonymous folio
as shared although it is exclusive: there are no false positives.
If we detect a THP as shared, at least one page of the THP is mapped by
another process. It could well be that some pages are actually exclusive.
For example, our child processes could have unmapped/COW'ed some pages
such that they would now be exclusive to out process, which we now
would treat as still-shared.
Examples:
(1) Parent maps all pages of a THP, child maps some pages. We detect
all pages in the parent as shared although some are actually
exclusive.
(2) Parent maps all but some page of a THP, child maps the remainder.
We detect all pages of the THP that the parent maps as shared
although they are all exclusive.
In (1) we wouldn't collapse a THP right now already: no PTE
is writable, because a write fault would have resulted in COW of a
single page and the parent would no longer map all pages of that THP.
For (2) we would have collapsed a THP in the parent so far, now we
wouldn't as long as the child process is still alive: unless the child
process unmaps the remaining THP pages or we decide to split that THP.
Possibly, the child COW'ed many pages, meaning that it's likely that
we can populate a THP for our child first, and then for our parent.
For (2), we are making really bad use of the THP in the first
place (not even mapped completely in at least one process). If the
THP would be completely partially mapped, it would be on the deferred
split queue where we would split it lazily later.
For short-running child processes, we don't particularly care. For
long-running processes, the expectation is that such scenarios are
rather rare: further, a THP might be best placed if most data in the
PMD range is actually written, implying that we'll have to COW more
pages first before khugepaged would collapse it.
To summarize, in the common case, this change is not expected to matter
much. The more common application of khugepaged operates on exclusive
pages, either before fork() or after a child quit.
Can we improve (A)? Yes, if we implement more precise tracking of "mapped
shared" vs. "mapped exclusively", we could get rid of the false negatives
completely.
Can we improve (B)? We could count how many pages of a large folio we map
inside the current page table and detect that we are responsible for most
of the folio mapcount and conclude "as good as exclusive", which might
help in some cases. ... but likely, some other mechanism should detect
that the THP is not a good use in the scenario (not even mapped completely
in a single process) and try splitting that folio lazily etc.
We'll move the folio_test_anon() check before our "shared" check, so we
might get more expressive results for SCAN_EXCEED_SHARED_PTE: this order
of checks now matches the one in __collapse_huge_page_isolate(). Extend
documentation.

Let's track the mapcount of large folios in a single value. The mapcount
of a large folio currently corresponds to the sum of the entire mapcount
and all page mapcounts.
This sum is what we actually want to know in folio_mapcount() and it is
also sufficient for implementing folio_mapped().
With PTE-mapped THP becoming more important and more widely used, we want
to avoid looping over all pages of a folio just to obtain the mapcount of
large folios. The comment "In the common case, avoid the loop when no
pages mapped by PTE" in folio_total_mapcount() does no longer hold for
mTHP that are always mapped by PTE.
Further, we are planning on using folio_mapcount() more frequently, and
might even want to remove page mapcounts for large folios in some kernel
configs. Therefore, allow for reading the mapcount of large folios
efficiently and atomically without looping over any pages.
Maintain the mapcount also for hugetlb pages for simplicity. Use the new
mapcount to implement folio_mapcount() and folio_mapped(). Make
page_mapped() simply call folio_mapped(). We can now get rid of
folio_large_is_mapped().
_nr_pages_mapped is now only used in rmap code and for debugging purposes.
Keep folio_nr_pages_mapped() around, but document that its use should be
limited to rmap internals and debugging purposes.
This change implies one additional atomic add/sub whenever
mapping/unmapping (parts of) a large folio.
As we now batch RMAP operations for PTE-mapped THP during fork(), during
unmap/zap, and when PTE-remapping a PMD-mapped THP, and we adjust the
large mapcount for a PTE batch only once, the added overhead in the common
case is small. Only when unmapping individual pages of a large folio
(e.g., during COW), the overhead might be bigger in comparison, but it's
essentially one additional atomic operation.
Note that before the new mapcount would overflow, already our refcount
would overflow: each mapping requires a folio reference. Extend the
focumentation of folio_mapcount().

Patch series "khugepaged folio conversions".
We've been kind of hacking piecemeal at converting khugepaged to use
folios instead of compound pages, and so this patchset is a little larger
than it should be as I undo some of our wrong moves in the past. In
particular, collapse_file() now consistently uses 'new_folio' for the
freshly allocated folio and 'folio' for the one that's currently in use.
This patch (of 7):
This function has one caller, and the combined function is simpler to
read, reason about and modify.

khugepaged scans the entire address space in the background for each
given mm, looking for opportunities to merge sequences of basic pages
into huge pages. However, when an mm is inserted to the mm_slots list,
and the MMF_DISABLE_THP flag is set later, this scanning process
becomes unnecessary for that mm and can be skipped to avoid redundant
operations, especially in scenarios with a large address space.
On an Intel Core i5 CPU, the time taken by khugepaged to scan the
address space of the process, which has been set with the
MMF_DISABLE_THP flag after being added to the mm_slots list, is as
follows (shorter is better):
VMA Count | Old | New | Change
---------------------------------------
50 | 23us | 9us | -60.9%
100 | 32us | 9us | -71.9%
200 | 44us | 9us | -79.5%
400 | 75us | 9us | -88.0%
800 | 98us | 9us | -90.8%
Once the count of VMAs for the process exceeds page_to_scan, khugepaged
needs to wait for scan_sleep_millisecs ms before scanning the next
process. IMO, unnecessary scans could actually be skipped with a very
inexpensive mm->flags check in this case.
This commit introduces a check before each scanning process to test the
MMF_DISABLE_THP flag for the given mm; if the flag is set, the scanning
process is bypassed, thereby improving the efficiency of khugepaged.
This optimization is not a correctness issue but rather an enhancement
to save expensive checks on each VMA when userspace cannot prctl itself
before spawning into the new process.
On some servers within our company, we deploy a daemon responsible for
monitoring and updating local applications. Some applications prefer
not to use THP, so the daemon calls prctl to disable THP before
fork/exec. Conversely, for other applications, the daemon calls prctl
to enable THP before fork/exec.
Ideally, the daemon should invoke prctl after the fork, but its current
implementation follows the described approach. In the Go standard
library, there is no direct encapsulation of the fork system call;
instead, fork and execve are combined into one through
syscall.ForkExec.

A freezable kernel thread can enter frozen state during freezing by either
calling try_to_freeze() or using wait_event_freezable() and its variants.
However, there is no need to use both methods simultaneously. The
freezable wait variants have been used in khugepaged_wait_work() and
khugepaged_alloc_sleep(), so remove this redundant try_to_freeze().
I used the following stress-ng command to generate some memory load on my
Intel Alder Lake board (24 CPUs, 32G memory).
stress-ng --vm 48 --vm-bytes 90%
The worst freezing latency is:
Freezing user space processes
Freezing user space processes completed (elapsed 0.040 seconds)
OOM killer disabled.
Freezing remaining freezable tasks
Freezing remaining freezable tasks completed (elapsed 0.001 seconds)
Without the faked memory load, the freezing latency is:
Freezing user space processes
Freezing user space processes completed (elapsed 0.000 seconds)
OOM killer disabled.
Freezing remaining freezable tasks
Freezing remaining freezable tasks completed (elapsed 0.001 seconds)
I didn't see any observable difference whether this patch is applied or not.

Implement the uABI of UFFDIO_MOVE ioctl.
UFFDIO_COPY performs ~20% better than UFFDIO_MOVE when the application
needs pages to be allocated [1]. However, with UFFDIO_MOVE, if pages are
available (in userspace) for recycling, as is usually the case in heap
compaction algorithms, then we can avoid the page allocation and memcpy
(done by UFFDIO_COPY). Also, since the pages are recycled in the
userspace, we avoid the need to release (via madvise) the pages back to
the kernel [2].
We see over 40% reduction (on a Google pixel 6 device) in the compacting
thread's completion time by using UFFDIO_MOVE vs. UFFDIO_COPY. This was
measured using a benchmark that emulates a heap compaction implementation
using userfaultfd (to allow concurrent accesses by application threads).
More details of the usecase are explained in [2]. Furthermore,
UFFDIO_MOVE enables moving swapped-out pages without touching them within
the same vma. Today, it can only be done by mremap, however it forces
splitting the vma.
[1] https://lore.kernel.org/all/1425575884-2574-1-git-send-email-aarcange@redhat.com/
[2] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/CA+EESO4uO84SSnBhArH4HvLNhaUQ5nZKNKXqxRCyjniNVjp0Aw@mail.gmail.com/
Update for the ioctl_userfaultfd(2) manpage:
UFFDIO_MOVE
(Since Linux xxx) Move a continuous memory chunk into the
userfault registered range and optionally wake up the blocked
thread. The source and destination addresses and the number of
bytes to move are specified by the src, dst, and len fields of
the uffdio_move structure pointed to by argp:
struct uffdio_move {
__u64 dst; /* Destination of move */
__u64 src; /* Source of move */
__u64 len; /* Number of bytes to move */
__u64 mode; /* Flags controlling behavior of move */
__s64 move; /* Number of bytes moved, or negated error */
};
The following value may be bitwise ORed in mode to change the
behavior of the UFFDIO_MOVE operation:
UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_DONTWAKE
Do not wake up the thread that waits for page-fault
resolution
UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_ALLOW_SRC_HOLES
Allow holes in the source virtual range that is being moved.
When not specified, the holes will result in ENOENT error.
When specified, the holes will be accounted as successfully
moved memory. This is mostly useful to move hugepage aligned
virtual regions without knowing if there are transparent
hugepages in the regions or not, but preventing the risk of
having to split the hugepage during the operation.
The move field is used by the kernel to return the number of
bytes that was actually moved, or an error (a negated errno-
style value). If the value returned in move doesn't match the
value that was specified in len, the operation fails with the
error EAGAIN. The move field is output-only; it is not read by
the UFFDIO_MOVE operation.
The operation may fail for various reasons. Usually, remapping of
pages that are not exclusive to the given process fail; once KSM
might deduplicate pages or fork() COW-shares pages during fork()
with child processes, they are no longer exclusive. Further, the
kernel might only perform lightweight checks for detecting whether
the pages are exclusive, and return -EBUSY in case that check fails.
To make the operation more likely to succeed, KSM should be
disabled, fork() should be avoided or MADV_DONTFORK should be
configured for the source VMA before fork().
This ioctl(2) operation returns 0 on success. In this case, the
entire area was moved. On error, -1 is returned and errno is
set to indicate the error. Possible errors include:
EAGAIN The number of bytes moved (i.e., the value returned in
the move field) does not equal the value that was
specified in the len field.
EINVAL Either dst or len was not a multiple of the system page
size, or the range specified by src and len or dst and len
was invalid.
EINVAL An invalid bit was specified in the mode field.
ENOENT
The source virtual memory range has unmapped holes and
UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_ALLOW_SRC_HOLES is not set.
EEXIST
The destination virtual memory range is fully or partially
mapped.
EBUSY
The pages in the source virtual memory range are either
pinned or not exclusive to the process. The kernel might
only perform lightweight checks for detecting whether the
pages are exclusive. To make the operation more likely to
succeed, KSM should be disabled, fork() should be avoided
or MADV_DONTFORK should be configured for the source virtual
memory area before fork().
ENOMEM Allocating memory needed for the operation failed.
ESRCH
The target process has exited at the time of a UFFDIO_MOVE
operation.

In preparation for adding support for anonymous multi-size THP, introduce
new sysfs structure that will be used to control the new behaviours. A
new directory is added under transparent_hugepage for each supported THP
size, and contains an `enabled` file, which can be set to "inherit" (to
inherit the global setting), "always", "madvise" or "never". For now, the
kernel still only supports PMD-sized anonymous THP, so only 1 directory is
populated.
The first half of the change converts transhuge_vma_suitable() and
hugepage_vma_check() so that they take a bitfield of orders for which the
user wants to determine support, and the functions filter out all the
orders that can't be supported, given the current sysfs configuration and
the VMA dimensions. The resulting functions are renamed to
thp_vma_suitable_orders() and thp_vma_allowable_orders() respectively.
Convenience functions that take a single, unencoded order and return a
boolean are also defined as thp_vma_suitable_order() and
thp_vma_allowable_order().
The second half of the change implements the new sysfs interface. It has
been done so that each supported THP size has a `struct thpsize`, which
describes the relevant metadata and is itself a kobject. This is pretty
minimal for now, but should make it easy to add new per-thpsize files to
the interface if needed in future (e.g. per-size defrag). Rather than
keep the `enabled` state directly in the struct thpsize, I've elected to
directly encode it into huge_anon_orders_[always|madvise|inherit]
bitfields since this reduces the amount of work required in
thp_vma_allowable_orders() which is called for every page fault.
See Documentation/admin-guide/mm/transhuge.rst, as modified by this
commit, for details of how the new sysfs interface works.

This removes 2 calls to compound_head() and helps convert khugepaged to
use folios throughout.
Previously, if the address passed to collapse_pte_mapped_thp()
corresponded to a tail page, the scan would fail immediately. Using
filemap_lock_folio() we get the corresponding folio back and try to
operate on the folio instead.

Jann Horn demonstrated how userfaultfd ioctl UFFDIO_COPY into a private
shmem mapping can add valid PTEs to page table collapse_pte_mapped_thp()
thought it had emptied: page lock on the huge page is enough to protect
against WP faults (which find the PTE has been cleared), but not enough to
protect against userfaultfd. "BUG: Bad rss-counter state" followed.
retract_page_tables() protects against this by checking !vma->anon_vma;
but we know that MADV_COLLAPSE needs to be able to work on private shmem
mappings, even those with an anon_vma prepared for another part of the
mapping; and we know that MADV_COLLAPSE needs to work on shared shmem
mappings which are userfaultfd_armed(). Whether it needs to work on
private shmem mappings which are userfaultfd_armed(), I'm not so sure: but
assume that it does.
Just for this case, take the pmd_lock() two steps earlier: not because it
gives any protection against this case itself, but because ptlock nests
inside it, and it's the dropping of ptlock which let the bug in. In other
cases, continue to minimize the pmd_lock() hold time.

Now that retract_page_tables() can retract page tables reliably, without
depending on trylocks, delete all the apparatus for khugepaged to try
again later: khugepaged_collapse_pte_mapped_thps() etc; and free up the
per-mm memory which was set aside for that in the khugepaged_mm_slot.
But one part of that is worth keeping: when hpage_collapse_scan_file()
found SCAN_PTE_MAPPED_HUGEPAGE, that address was noted in the mm_slot to
be tried for retraction later - catching, for example, page tables where a
reversible mprotect() of a portion had required splitting the pmd, but now
it can be recollapsed. Call collapse_pte_mapped_thp() directly in this
case (why was it deferred before? I assume an issue with needing
mmap_lock for write, but now it's only needed for read).

Bring collapse_and_free_pmd() back into collapse_pte_mapped_thp(). It
does need mmap_read_lock(), but it does not need mmap_write_lock(), nor
vma_start_write() nor i_mmap lock nor anon_vma lock. All racing paths are
relying on pte_offset_map_lock() and pmd_lock(), so use those.
Follow the pattern in retract_page_tables(); and using pte_free_defer()
removes most of the need for tlb_remove_table_sync_one() here; but call
pmdp_get_lockless_sync() to use it in the PAE case.
First check the VMA, in case page tables are being torn down: from JannH.
Confirm the preliminary find_pmd_or_thp_or_none() once page lock has been
acquired and the page looks suitable: from then on its state is stable.
However, collapse_pte_mapped_thp() was doing something others don't:
freeing a page table still containing "valid" entries. i_mmap lock did
stop a racing truncate from double-freeing those pages, but we prefer
collapse_pte_mapped_thp() to clear the entries as usual. Their TLB flush
can wait until the pmdp_collapse_flush() which follows, but the
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start() has to be done earlier.
Do the "step 1" checking loop without mmu_notifier: it wouldn't be good
for khugepaged to keep on repeatedly invalidating a range which is then
found unsuitable e.g. contains COWs. "step 2", which does the clearing,
must then be more careful (after dropping ptl to do mmu_notifier), with
abort prepared to correct the accounting like "step 3". But with those
entries now cleared, "step 4" (after dropping ptl to do pmd_lock) is kept
safe by the huge page lock, which stops new PTEs from being faulted in.

Simplify shmem and file THP collapse's retract_page_tables(), and relax
its locking: to improve its success rate and to lessen impact on others.
Instead of its MADV_COLLAPSE case doing set_huge_pmd() at target_addr of
target_mm, leave that part of the work to madvise_collapse() calling
collapse_pte_mapped_thp() afterwards: just adjust collapse_file()'s result
code to arrange for that. That spares retract_page_tables() four
arguments; and since it will be successful in retracting all of the page
tables expected of it, no need to track and return a result code itself.
It needs i_mmap_lock_read(mapping) for traversing the vma interval tree,
but it does not need i_mmap_lock_write() for that: page_vma_mapped_walk()
allows for pte_offset_map_lock() etc to fail, and uses pmd_lock() for
THPs. retract_page_tables() just needs to use those same spinlocks to
exclude it briefly, while transitioning pmd from page table to none: so
restore its use of pmd_lock() inside of which pte lock is nested.
Users of pte_offset_map_lock() etc all now allow for them to fail: so
retract_page_tables() now has no use for mmap_write_trylock() or
vma_try_start_write(). In common with rmap and page_vma_mapped_walk(), it
does not even need the mmap_read_lock().
But those users do expect the page table to remain a good page table,
until they unlock and rcu_read_unlock(): so the page table cannot be freed
immediately, but rather by the recently added pte_free_defer().
Use the (usually a no-op) pmdp_get_lockless_sync() to send an interrupt
when PAE, and pmdp_collapse_flush() did not already do so: to make sure
that the start,pmdp_get_lockless(),end sequence in __pte_offset_map()
cannot pick up a pmd entry with mismatched pmd_low and pmd_high.
retract_page_tables() can be enhanced to replace_page_tables(), which
inserts the final huge pmd without mmap lock: going through an invalid
state instead of pmd_none() followed by fault. But that enhancement does
raise some more questions: leave it until a later release.

Patch series "mm, netfs, fscache: Stop read optimisation when folio
removed from pagecache", v7.
This fixes an optimisation in fscache whereby we don't read from the cache
for a particular file until we know that there's data there that we don't
have in the pagecache. The problem is that I'm no longer using PG_fscache
(aka PG_private_2) to indicate that the page is cached and so I don't get
a notification when a cached page is dropped from the pagecache.
The first patch merges some folio_has_private() and
filemap_release_folio() pairs and introduces a helper,
folio_needs_release(), to indicate if a release is required.
The second patch is the actual fix. Following Willy's suggestions[1], it
adds an AS_RELEASE_ALWAYS flag to an address_space that will make
filemap_release_folio() always call ->release_folio(), even if
PG_private/PG_private_2 aren't set. folio_needs_release() is altered to
add a check for this.
This patch (of 2):
Make filemap_release_folio() check folio_has_private(). Then, in most
cases, where a call to folio_has_private() is immediately followed by a
call to filemap_release_folio(), we can get rid of the test in the pair.
There are a couple of sites in mm/vscan.c that this can't so easily be
done. In shrink_folio_list(), there are actually three cases (something
different is done for incompletely invalidated buffers), but
filemap_release_folio() elides two of them.
In shrink_active_list(), we don't have have the folio lock yet, so the
check allows us to avoid locking the page unnecessarily.
A wrapper function to check if a folio needs release is provided for those
places that still need to do it in the mm/ directory. This will acquire
additional parts to the condition in a future patch.
After this, the only remaining caller of folio_has_private() outside of
mm/ is a check in fuse.

As the number of ksm zero pages is not included in ksm_merging_pages per
process when enabling use_zero_pages, it's unclear of how many actual
pages are merged by KSM. To let users accurately estimate their memory
demands when unsharing KSM zero-pages, it's necessary to show KSM zero-
pages per process. In addition, it help users to know the actual KSM
profit because KSM-placed zero pages are also benefit from KSM.
since unsharing zero pages placed by KSM accurately is achieved, then
tracking empty pages merging and unmerging is not a difficult thing any
longer.
Since we already have /proc/<pid>/ksm_stat, just add the information of
'ksm_zero_pages' in it.

As pages_sharing and pages_shared don't include the number of zero pages
merged by KSM, we cannot know how many pages are zero pages placed by KSM
when enabling use_zero_pages, which leads to KSM not being transparent
with all actual merged pages by KSM. In the early days of use_zero_pages,
zero-pages was unable to get unshared by the ways like MADV_UNMERGEABLE so
it's hard to count how many times one of those zeropages was then
unmerged.
But now, unsharing KSM-placed zero page accurately has been achieved, so
we can easily count both how many times a page full of zeroes was merged
with zero-page and how many times one of those pages was then unmerged.
and so, it helps to estimate memory demands when each and every shared
page could get unshared.
So we add ksm_zero_pages under /sys/kernel/mm/ksm/ to show the number
of all zero pages placed by KSM. Meanwhile, we update the Documentation.

i_pages lock nests inside i_lock, but shmem_charge() and shmem_uncharge()
were being called from THP splitting or collapsing while i_pages lock was
held, and now go on to call dquot_alloc_block_nodirty() which takes
i_lock to update i_blocks.
We may well want to take i_lock out of this path later, in the non-quota
case even if it's left in the quota case (or perhaps use i_lock instead
of shmem's info->lock throughout); but don't get into that at this time.
Move the shmem_charge() and shmem_uncharge() calls out from under i_pages
lock, accounting the full batch of holes in a single call.
Still pass the pages argument to shmem_uncharge(), but it happens now to
be unused: shmem_recalc_inode() is designed to account for clean pages
freed behind shmem's back, so it gets the accounting right by itself;
then the later call to shmem_inode_unacct_blocks() led to imbalance
(that WARN_ON(inode->i_blocks) in shmem_evict_inode()).

There is no xas_pause(&xas) in collapse_file()'s main loop, at the points
where it does xas_unlock_irq(&xas) and then continues.
That would explain why, once two weeks ago and twice yesterday, I have
hit the VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(page != xas_load(&xas), page) since "mm/khugepaged:
fix iteration in collapse_file" removed the xas_set(&xas, index) just
before it: xas.xa_node could be left pointing to a stale node, if there
was concurrent activity on the file which transformed its xarray.
I tried inserting xas_pause()s, but then even bootup crashed on that
VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(): there appears to be a subtle "nextness" implicit in
xas_pause().
xas_next() and xas_pause() are good for use in simple loops, but not in
this one: xas_set() worked well until now, so use xas_set(&xas, index)
explicitly at the head of the loop; and change that VM_BUG_ON_PAGE() not
to need its own xas_set(), and not to interfere with the xa_state (which
would probably stop the crashes from xas_pause(), but I trust that less).
The user-visible effects of this bug (if VM_BUG_ONs are configured out)
would be data loss and data leak - potentially - though in practice I
expect it is more likely that a subsequent check (e.g. on mapping or on
nr_none) would notice an inconsistency, and just abandon the collapse.

Convert all instances of direct pte_t* dereferencing to instead use
ptep_get() helper. This means that by default, the accesses change from a
C dereference to a READ_ONCE(). This is technically the correct thing to
do since where pgtables are modified by HW (for access/dirty) they are
volatile and therefore we should always ensure READ_ONCE() semantics.
But more importantly, by always using the helper, it can be overridden by
the architecture to fully encapsulate the contents of the pte. Arch code
is deliberately not converted, as the arch code knows best. It is
intended that arch code (arm64) will override the default with its own
implementation that can (e.g.) hide certain bits from the core code, or
determine young/dirty status by mixing in state from another source.
Conversion was done using Coccinelle:
----
// $ make coccicheck \
// COCCI=ptepget.cocci \
// SPFLAGS="--include-headers" \
// MODE=patch
virtual patch
@ depends on patch @
pte_t *v;
@@
- *v
+ ptep_get(v)
----
Then reviewed and hand-edited to avoid multiple unnecessary calls to
ptep_get(), instead opting to store the result of a single call in a
variable, where it is correct to do so. This aims to negate any cost of
READ_ONCE() and will benefit arch-overrides that may be more complex.
Included is a fix for an issue in an earlier version of this patch that
was pointed out by kernel test robot. The issue arose because config
MMU=n elides definition of the ptep helper functions, including
ptep_get(). HUGETLB_PAGE=n configs still define a simple
huge_ptep_clear_flush() for linking purposes, which dereferences the ptep.
So when both configs are disabled, this caused a build error because
ptep_get() is not defined. Fix by continuing to do a direct dereference
when MMU=n. This is safe because for this config the arch code cannot be
trying to virtualize the ptes because none of the ptep helpers are
defined.

Delete pmd_trans_unstable, pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() and
pmd_devmap_trans_unstable(), all now unused.
With mixed feelings, delete all the comments on pmd_trans_unstable().
That was very good documentation of a subtle state, and this series does
not even eliminate that state: but rather, normalizes and extends it,
asking pte_offset_map[_lock]() callers to anticipate failure, without
regard for whether mmap_read_lock() or mmap_write_lock() is held.
Retain pud_trans_unstable(), which has one use in __handle_mm_fault(), but
delete its equivalent pud_none_or_trans_huge_or_dev_or_clear_bad(). While
there, move the default arch_needs_pgtable_deposit() definition up near
where pgtable_trans_huge_deposit() and withdraw() are declared.

handle_pte_fault() use pte_offset_map_nolock() to get the vmf.ptl which
corresponds to vmf.pte, instead of pte_lockptr() being used later, when
there's a chance that the pmd entry might have changed, perhaps to none,
or to a huge pmd, with no split ptlock in its struct page.
Remove its pmd_devmap_trans_unstable() call: pte_offset_map_nolock() will
handle that case by failing. Update the "morph" comment above, looking
forward to when shmem or file collapse to THP may not take mmap_lock for
write (or not at all).
do_numa_page() use the vmf->ptl from handle_pte_fault() at first, but
refresh it when refreshing vmf->pte.
do_swap_page()'s pte_unmap_same() (the thing that takes ptl to verify a
two-part PAE orig_pte) use the vmf->ptl from handle_pte_fault() too; but
do_swap_page() is also used by anon THP's __collapse_huge_page_swapin(),
so adjust that to set vmf->ptl by pte_offset_map_nolock().

Patch series "mm: allow pte_offset_map[_lock]() to fail", v2.
What is it all about? Some mmap_lock avoidance i.e. latency reduction.
Initially just for the case of collapsing shmem or file pages to THPs; but
likely to be relied upon later in other contexts e.g. freeing of empty
page tables (but that's not work I'm doing). mmap_write_lock avoidance
when collapsing to anon THPs? Perhaps, but again that's not work I've
done: a quick attempt was not as easy as the shmem/file case.
I would much prefer not to have to make these small but wide-ranging
changes for such a niche case; but failed to find another way, and have
heard that shmem MADV_COLLAPSE's usefulness is being limited by that
mmap_write_lock it currently requires.
These changes (though of course not these exact patches) have been in
Google's data centre kernel for three years now: we do rely upon them.
What is this preparatory series about?
The current mmap locking will not be enough to guard against that tricky
transition between pmd entry pointing to page table, and empty pmd entry,
and pmd entry pointing to huge page: pte_offset_map() will have to
validate the pmd entry for itself, returning NULL if no page table is
there. What to do about that varies: sometimes nearby error handling
indicates just to skip it; but in many cases an ACTION_AGAIN or "goto
again" is appropriate (and if that risks an infinite loop, then there must
have been an oops, or pfn 0 mistaken for page table, before).
Given the likely extension to freeing empty page tables, I have not
limited this set of changes to a THP config; and it has been easier, and
sets a better example, if each site is given appropriate handling: even
where deeper study might prove that failure could only happen if the pmd
table were corrupted.
Several of the patches are, or include, cleanup on the way; and by the
end, pmd_trans_unstable() and suchlike are deleted: pte_offset_map() and
pte_offset_map_lock() then handle those original races and more. Most
uses of pte_lockptr() are deprecated, with pte_offset_map_nolock() taking
its place.
This patch (of 32):
Use pmdp_get_lockless() in preference to READ_ONCE(*pmdp), to get a more
reliable result with PAE (or READ_ONCE as before without PAE); and remove
the unnecessary extra barrier()s which got left behind in its callers.
HOWEVER: Note the small print in linux/pgtable.h, where it was designed
specifically for fast GUP, and depends on interrupts being disabled for
its full guarantee: most callers which have been added (here and before)
do NOT have interrupts disabled, so there is still some need for caution.

Remove an unnecessary call to xas_set(index) when iterating over the
target range in collapse_file. The extra call to xas_set reset the xas
cursor to the top of the tree, causing the xas_next call on the next
iteration to walk the tree to index instead of advancing to index+1. This
returned the same page again, which would cause collapse_file to fail
because the page is already locked.
This bug was hidden when CONFIG_DEBUG_VM was set. When that config was
used, the xas_load in a subsequent VM_BUG_ON assert would walk xas from
the top of the tree to index, causing the xas_next call on the next loop
iteration to advance the cursor as expected.

Inserting Ivan Orlov's syzbot fix commit 2ce0bdfebc74
("mm: khugepaged: fix kernel BUG in hpage_collapse_scan_file()")
ahead of Jiaqi Yan's and David Stevens's commits
12904d953364 ("mm/khugepaged: recover from poisoned file-backed memory")
cae106dd67b9 ("mm/khugepaged: refactor collapse_file control flow")
ac492b9c70ca ("mm/khugepaged: skip shmem with userfaultfd")
(all of which restructure collapse_file()) did not work out well.
xfstests generic/086 on huge tmpfs (with accelerated khugepaged) freezes
(if not on the first attempt, then the 2nd or 3rd) in find_lock_entries()
while doing drop_caches: the file's xarray seems to have been corrupted,
with find_get_entry() returning nonsense which makes no progress.
Bisection led to ac492b9c70ca; and diff against earlier working linux-next
suggested that it's probably down to an errant xas_store(), which does not
belong with the later changes (and nor does the positioning of warnings).
The later changes look as if they fix the syzbot issue independently.
Remove most of what's left of 2ce0bdfebc74: just leave one WARN_ON_ONCE
(xas_error) after the final xas_store() of the multi-index entry.

Make sure that collapse_file doesn't interfere with checking the uptodate
flag in the page cache by only inserting hpage into the page cache after
it has been updated and marked uptodate. This is achieved by simply not
replacing present pages with hpage when iterating over the target range.
The present pages are already locked, so replacing them with the locked
hpage before the collapse is finalized is unnecessary. However, it is
necessary to stop freezing the present pages after validating them, since
leaving long-term frozen pages in the page cache can lead to deadlocks.
Simply checking the reference count is sufficient to ensure that there are
no long-term references hanging around that would the collapse would
break. Similar to hpage, there is no reason that the present pages
actually need to be frozen in addition to being locked.
This fixes a race where folio_seek_hole_data would mistake hpage for an
fallocated but unwritten page. This race is visible to userspace via data
temporarily disappearing from SEEK_DATA/SEEK_HOLE. This also fixes a
similar race where pages could temporarily disappear from mincore.

Make sure that collapse_file respects any userfaultfds registered with
MODE_MISSING. If userspace has any such userfaultfds registered, then for
any page which it knows to be missing, it may expect a
UFFD_EVENT_PAGEFAULT. This means collapse_file needs to be careful when
collapsing a shmem range would result in replacing an empty page with a
THP, to avoid breaking userfaultfd.
Synchronization when checking for userfaultfds in collapse_file is tricky
because the mmap locks can't be used to prevent races with the
registration of new userfaultfds. Instead, we provide synchronization by
ensuring that userspace cannot observe the fact that pages are missing
before we check for userfaultfds. Although this allows registration of a
userfaultfd to race with collapse_file, it ensures that userspace cannot
observe any pages transition from missing to present after such a race
occurs. This makes such a race indistinguishable to the collapse
occurring immediately before the userfaultfd registration.
The first step to provide this synchronization is to stop filling gaps
during the loop iterating over the target range, since the page cache lock
can be dropped during that loop. The second step is to fill the gaps with
XA_RETRY_ENTRY after the page cache lock is acquired the final time, to
avoid races with accesses to the page cache that only take the RCU read
lock.
The fact that we don't fill holes during the initial iteration means that
collapse_file now has to handle faults occurring during the collapse.
This is done by re-validating the number of missing pages after acquiring
the page cache lock for the final time.
This fix is targeted at khugepaged, but the change also applies to
MADV_COLLAPSE. MADV_COLLAPSE on a range with a userfaultfd will now
return EBUSY if there are any missing pages (instead of succeeding on
shmem and returning EINVAL on anonymous memory). There is also now a
window during MADV_COLLAPSE where a fault on a missing page will cause the
syscall to fail with EAGAIN.
The fact that intermediate page cache state can no longer be observed
before the rollback of a failed collapse is also technically a
userspace-visible change (via at least SEEK_DATA and SEEK_END), but it is
exceedingly unlikely that anything relies on being able to observe that
transient state.

Add a rollback label to deal with failure, instead of continuously
checking for RESULT_SUCCESS, to make it easier to add more failure cases.
The refactoring also allows the collapse_file tracepoint to include hpage
on success (instead of NULL).

Patch series "mm/khugepaged: fixes for khugepaged+shmem", v6.
This series reworks collapse_file so that the intermediate state of the
collapse does not leak out of collapse_file. Although this makes
collapse_file a bit more complicated, it means that the rest of the
kernel doesn't have to deal with the unusual state. This directly fixes
races with both lseek and mincore.
This series also fixes the fact that khugepaged completely breaks
userfaultfd+shmem. The rework of collapse_file provides a convenient
place to check for registered userfaultfds without making the shmem
userfaultfd implementation care about khugepaged.
Finally, this series adds a lru_add_drain after swapping in shmem pages,
which makes the subsequent folio_isolate_lru significantly more likely to
succeed.
This patch (of 4):
Call lru_add_drain after swapping in shmem pages so that isolate_lru_page
is more likely to succeed.

Make collapse_file roll back when copying pages failed. More concretely:
- extract copying operations into a separate loop
- postpone the updates for nr_none until both scanning and copying
succeeded
- postpone joining small xarray entries until both scanning and copying
succeeded
- postpone the update operations to NR_XXX_THPS until both scanning and
copying succeeded
- for non-SHMEM file, roll back filemap_nr_thps_inc if scan succeeded but
copying failed
Tested manually:
0. Enable khugepaged on system under test. Mount tmpfs at /mnt/ramdisk.
1. Start a two-thread application. Each thread allocates a chunk of
non-huge memory buffer from /mnt/ramdisk.
2. Pick 4 random buffer address (2 in each thread) and inject
uncorrectable memory errors at physical addresses.
3. Signal both threads to make their memory buffer collapsible, i.e.
calling madvise(MADV_HUGEPAGE).
4. Wait and then check kernel log: khugepaged is able to recover from
poisoned pages by skipping them.
5. Signal both threads to inspect their buffer contents and make sure no
data corruption.

Problem
=======
Memory DIMMs are subject to multi-bit flips, i.e. memory errors. As
memory size and density increase, the chances of and number of memory
errors increase. The increasing size and density of server RAM in the
data center and cloud have shown increased uncorrectable memory errors.
There are already mechanisms in the kernel to recover from uncorrectable
memory errors. This series of patches provides the recovery mechanism for
the particular kernel agent khugepaged when it collapses memory pages.
Impact
======
The main reason we chose to make khugepaged collapsing tolerant of memory
failures was its high possibility of accessing poisoned memory while
performing functionally optional compaction actions. Standard
applications typically don't have strict requirements on the size of its
pages. So they are given 4K pages by the kernel. The kernel is able to
improve application performance by either
1) giving applications 2M pages to begin with, or
2) collapsing 4K pages into 2M pages when possible.
This collapsing operation is done by khugepaged, a kernel agent that is
constantly scanning memory. When collapsing 4K pages into a 2M page, it
must copy the data from the 4K pages into a physically contiguous 2M page.
Therefore, as long as there exists one poisoned cache line in collapsible
4K pages, khugepaged will eventually access it. The current impact to
users is a machine check exception triggered kernel panic. However,
khugepaged’s compaction operations are not functionally required kernel
actions. Therefore making khugepaged tolerant to poisoned memory will
greatly improve user experience.
This patch series is for cases where khugepaged is the first guy that
detects the memory errors on the poisoned pages. IOW, the pages are not
known to have memory errors when khugepaged collapsing gets to them. In
our observation, this happens frequently when the huge page ratio of the
system is relatively low, which is fairly common in virtual machines
running on cloud.
Solution
========
As stated before, it is less desirable to crash the system only because
khugepaged accesses poisoned pages while it is collapsing 4K pages. The
high level idea of this patch series is to skip the group of pages
(usually 512 4K-size pages) once khugepaged finds one of them is poisoned,
as these pages have become ineligible to be collapsed.
We are also careful to unwind operations khuagepaged has performed before
it detects memory failures. For example, before copying and collapsing a
group of anonymous pages into a huge page, the source pages will be
isolated and their page table is unlinked from their PMD. These
operations need to be undone in order to ensure these pages are not
changed/lost from the perspective of other threads (both user and kernel
space). As for file backed memory pages, there already exists a rollback
case. This patch just extends it so that khugepaged also correctly rolls
back when it fails to copy poisoned 4K pages.
This patch (of 3):
Make __collapse_huge_page_copy return whether copying anonymous pages
succeeded, and make collapse_huge_page handle the return status.
Break existing PTE scan loop into two for-loops. The first loop copies
source pages into target huge page, and can fail gracefully when running
into memory errors in source pages. If copying all pages succeeds, the
second loop releases and clears up these normal pages. Otherwise, the
second loop rolls back the page table and page states by:
- re-establishing the original PTEs-to-PMD connection.
- releasing source pages back to their LRU list.
Tested manually:
0. Enable khugepaged on system under test.
1. Start a two-thread application. Each thread allocates a chunk of
non-huge anonymous memory buffer.
2. Pick 4 random buffer locations (2 in each thread) and inject
uncorrectable memory errors at corresponding physical addresses.
3. Signal both threads to make their memory buffer collapsible, i.e.
calling madvise(MADV_HUGEPAGE).
4. Wait and check kernel log: khugepaged is able to recover from poisoned
pages and skips collapsing them.
5. Signal both threads to inspect their buffer contents and make sure no
data corruption.

The xas_store() call during page cache scanning can potentially translate
'xas' into the error state (with the reproducer provided by the syzkaller
the error code is -ENOMEM). However, there are no further checks after
the 'xas_store', and the next call of 'xas_next' at the start of the

This patch will add the xarray state error checking after the xas_store()
and the corresponding result error code.

Khugepaged collapse an anonymous thp in two rounds of scans. The 2nd
round done in __collapse_huge_page_isolate() after
hpage_collapse_scan_pmd(), during which all the locks will be released
temporarily. It means the pgtable can change during this phase before 2nd
round starts.
It's logically possible some ptes got wr-protected during this phase, and
we can errornously collapse a thp without noticing some ptes are
wr-protected by userfault. e1e267c7928f wanted to avoid it but it only
did that for the 1st phase, not the 2nd phase.
Since __collapse_huge_page_isolate() happens after a round of small page
swapins, we don't need to worry on any !present ptes - if it existed
khugepaged will already bail out. So we only need to check present ptes
with uffd-wp bit set there.
This is something I found only but never had a reproducer, I thought it
was one caused a bug in Muhammad's recent pagemap new ioctl work, but it
turns out it's not the cause of that but an userspace bug. However this
seems to still be a real bug even with a very small race window, still
worth to have it fixed and copy stable.

Protect VMA from concurrent page fault handler while collapsing a huge
page. Page fault handler needs a stable PMD to use PTL and relies on
per-VMA lock to prevent concurrent PMD changes. pmdp_collapse_flush(),
set_huge_pmd() and collapse_and_free_pmd() can modify a PMD, which will
not be detected by a page fault handler without proper locking.
Before this patch, page tables can be walked under any one of the
mmap_lock, the mapping lock, and the anon_vma lock; so when khugepaged
unlinks and frees page tables, it must ensure that all of those either are
locked or don't exist. This patch adds a fourth lock under which page
tables can be traversed, and so khugepaged must also lock out that one.

Patch series "mm/uffd: Add feature bit UFFD_FEATURE_WP_UNPOPULATED", v4.
The new feature bit makes anonymous memory acts the same as file memory on
userfaultfd-wp in that it'll also wr-protect none ptes.
It can be useful in two cases:
(1) Uffd-wp app that needs to wr-protect none ptes like QEMU snapshot,
so pre-fault can be replaced by enabling this flag and speed up
protections
(2) It helps to implement async uffd-wp mode that Muhammad is working on [1]
It's debatable whether this is the most ideal solution because with the
new feature bit set, wr-protect none pte needs to pre-populate the
pgtables to the last level (PAGE_SIZE). But it seems fine so far to
service either purpose above, so we can leave optimizations for later.
The series brings pte markers to anonymous memory too. There's some
change in the common mm code path in the 1st patch, great to have some eye
looking at it, but hopefully they're still relatively straightforward.
This patch (of 2):
This is a new feature that controls how uffd-wp handles none ptes. When
it's set, the kernel will handle anonymous memory the same way as file
memory, by allowing the user to wr-protect unpopulated ptes.
File memories handles none ptes consistently by allowing wr-protecting of
none ptes because of the unawareness of page cache being exist or not.
For anonymous it was not as persistent because we used to assume that we
don't need protections on none ptes or known zero pages.
One use case of such a feature bit was VM live snapshot, where if without
wr-protecting empty ptes the snapshot can contain random rubbish in the
holes of the anonymous memory, which can cause misbehave of the guest when
the guest OS assumes the pages should be all zeros.
QEMU worked it around by pre-populate the section with reads to fill in
zero page entries before starting the whole snapshot process [1].
Recently there's another need raised on using userfaultfd wr-protect for
detecting dirty pages (to replace soft-dirty in some cases) [2]. In that
case if without being able to wr-protect none ptes by default, the dirty
info can get lost, since we cannot treat every none pte to be dirty (the
current design is identify a page dirty based on uffd-wp bit being
cleared).
In general, we want to be able to wr-protect empty ptes too even for
anonymous.
This patch implements UFFD_FEATURE_WP_UNPOPULATED so that it'll make
uffd-wp handling on none ptes being consistent no matter what the memory
type is underneath. It doesn't have any impact on file memories so far
because we already have pte markers taking care of that. So it only
affects anonymous.
The feature bit is by default off, so the old behavior will be maintained.
Sometimes it may be wanted because the wr-protect of none ptes will
contain overheads not only during UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT (by applying pte
markers to anonymous), but also on creating the pgtables to store the pte
markers. So there's potentially less chance of using thp on the first
fault for a none pmd or larger than a pmd.
The major implementation part is teaching the whole kernel to understand
pte markers even for anonymously mapped ranges, meanwhile allowing the
UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT ioctl to apply pte markers for anonymous too when the
new feature bit is set.
Note that even if the patch subject starts with mm/uffd, there're a few
small refactors to major mm path of handling anonymous page faults. But
they should be straightforward.
With WP_UNPOPUATED, application like QEMU can avoid pre-read faults all
the memory before wr-protect during taking a live snapshot. Quotting from
Muhammad's test result here [3] based on a simple program [4]:
(1) With huge page disabled
echo madvise > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled
./uffd_wp_perf
Test DEFAULT: 4
Test PRE-READ: 1111453 (pre-fault 1101011)
Test MADVISE: 278276 (pre-fault 266378)
Test WP-UNPOPULATE: 11712
(2) With Huge page enabled
echo always > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled
./uffd_wp_perf
Test DEFAULT: 4
Test PRE-READ: 22521 (pre-fault 22348)
Test MADVISE: 4909 (pre-fault 4743)
Test WP-UNPOPULATE: 14448
There'll be a great perf boost for no-thp case, while for thp enabled with
extreme case of all-thp-zero WP_UNPOPULATED can be slower than MADVISE,
but that's low possibility in reality, also the overhead was not reduced
but postponed until a follow up write on any huge zero thp, so potentially
it is faster by making the follow up writes slower.

Explicit memcg uncharging is not needed when the memcg accounting has the
same lifespan of the page/folio. That becomes the case for khugepaged
after Yang & Zach's recent rework so the hpage will be allocated for each
collapse rather than being cached.
Cleanup the explicit memcg uncharge in khugepaged failure path and leave
that for put_page().

If memory charge failed, instead of returning the hpage but with an error,
allow the function to cleanup the folio properly, which is normally what a
function should do in this case - either return successfully, or return
with no side effect of partial runs with an indicated error.
This will also avoid the caller calling mem_cgroup_uncharge()
unnecessarily with either anon or shmem path (even if it's safe to do so).

The isolate_lru_page() can only return 0 or -EBUSY, and most users did not
care about the negative error of isolate_lru_page(), except one user in
add_page_for_migration(). So we can convert the isolate_lru_page() to
return a boolean value, which can help to make the code more clear when
checking the return value of isolate_lru_page().
Also convert all users' logic of checking the isolation state.
No functional changes intended.

Patch series "Change the return value for page isolation functions", v3.
Now the page isolation functions did not return a boolean to indicate
success or not, instead it will return a negative error when failed
to isolate a page. So below code used in most places seem a boolean
success/failure thing, which can confuse people whether the isolation
is successful.
if (folio_isolate_lru(folio))
continue;
Moreover the page isolation functions only return 0 or -EBUSY, and
most users did not care about the negative error except for few users,
thus we can convert all page isolation functions to return a boolean
value, which can remove the confusion to make code more clear.
No functional changes intended in this patch series.
This patch (of 4):
Now the folio_isolate_lru() did not return a boolean value to indicate
isolation success or not, however below code checking the return value can
make people think that it was a boolean success/failure thing, which makes
people easy to make mistakes (see the fix patch[1]).
if (folio_isolate_lru(folio))
continue;
Thus it's better to check the negative error value expilictly returned by
folio_isolate_lru(), which makes code more clear per Linus's
suggestion[2]. Moreover Matthew suggested we can convert the isolation
functions to return a boolean[3], since most users did not care about the
negative error value, and can also remove the confusing of checking return
value.
So this patch converts the folio_isolate_lru() to return a boolean value,
which means return 'true' to indicate the folio isolation is successful,
and 'false' means a failure to isolation. Meanwhile changing all users'
logic of checking the isolation state.
No functional changes intended.

During collapse, in a few places we check to see if a given small page has
any unaccounted references. If the refcount on the page doesn't match our
expectations, it must be there is an unknown user concurrently interested
in the page, and so it's not safe to move the contents elsewhere.
However, the unaccounted pins are likely an ephemeral state.
In this situation, MADV_COLLAPSE returns -EINVAL when it should return
-EAGAIN. This could cause userspace to conclude that the syscall
failed, when it in fact could succeed by retrying.

release_pte_pages() converts from a pfn to a folio by using pfn_folio().
If the pte is not mapped, pfn_folio() will result in undefined behavior
which ends up causing a kernel panic[1].
Only call pfn_folio() once we have validated that the pte is both valid
and mapped to fix the issue.

In commit 34488399fa08 ("mm/madvise: add file and shmem support to
MADV_COLLAPSE") we make the following change to find_pmd_or_thp_or_none():
- if (!pmd_present(pmde))
- return SCAN_PMD_NULL;
+ if (pmd_none(pmde))
+ return SCAN_PMD_NONE;
This was for-use by MADV_COLLAPSE file/shmem codepaths, where
MADV_COLLAPSE might identify a pte-mapped hugepage, only to have
khugepaged race-in, free the pte table, and clear the pmd. Such codepaths
include:
A) If we find a suitably-aligned compound page of order HPAGE_PMD_ORDER
already in the pagecache.
B) In retract_page_tables(), if we fail to grab mmap_lock for the target
mm/address.
In these cases, collapse_pte_mapped_thp() really does expect a none (not
just !present) pmd, and we want to suitably identify that case separate
from the case where no pmd is found, or it's a bad-pmd (of course, many
things could happen once we drop mmap_lock, and the pmd could plausibly
undergo multiple transitions due to intervening fault, split, etc).
Regardless, the code is prepared install a huge-pmd only when the existing
pmd entry is either a genuine pte-table-mapping-pmd, or the none-pmd.
However, the commit introduces a logical hole; namely, that we've allowed
!none- && !huge- && !bad-pmds to be classified as genuine
pte-table-mapping-pmds. One such example that could leak through are swap
entries. The pmd values aren't checked again before use in
pte_offset_map_lock(), which is expecting nothing less than a genuine
pte-table-mapping-pmd.
We want to put back the !pmd_present() check (below the pmd_none() check),
but need to be careful to deal with subtleties in pmd transitions and
treatments by various arch.
The issue is that __split_huge_pmd_locked() temporarily clears the present
bit (or otherwise marks the entry as invalid), but pmd_present() and
pmd_trans_huge() still need to return true while the pmd is in this
transitory state. For example, x86's pmd_present() also checks the
_PAGE_PSE , riscv's version also checks the _PAGE_LEAF bit, and arm64 also
checks a PMD_PRESENT_INVALID bit.
Covering all 4 cases for x86 (all checks done on the same pmd value):
1) pmd_present() && pmd_trans_huge()
All we actually know here is that the PSE bit is set. Either:
a) We aren't racing with __split_huge_page(), and PRESENT or PROTNONE
is set.
=> huge-pmd
b) We are currently racing with __split_huge_page(). The danger here
is that we proceed as-if we have a huge-pmd, but really we are
looking at a pte-mapping-pmd. So, what is the risk of this
danger?
The only relevant path is:
madvise_collapse() -> collapse_pte_mapped_thp()
Where we might just incorrectly report back "success", when really
the memory isn't pmd-backed. This is fine, since split could
happen immediately after (actually) successful madvise_collapse().
So, it should be safe to just assume huge-pmd here.
2) pmd_present() && !pmd_trans_huge()
Either:
a) PSE not set and either PRESENT or PROTNONE is.
=> pte-table-mapping pmd (or PROT_NONE)
b) devmap. This routine can be called immediately after
unlocking/locking mmap_lock -- or called with no locks held (see
khugepaged_scan_mm_slot()), so previous VMA checks have since been
invalidated.
3) !pmd_present() && pmd_trans_huge()
Not possible.
4) !pmd_present() && !pmd_trans_huge()
Neither PRESENT nor PROTNONE set
=> not present
I've checked all archs that implement pmd_trans_huge() (arm64, riscv,
powerpc, longarch, x86, mips, s390) and this logic roughly translates
(though devmap treatment is unique to x86 and powerpc, and (3) doesn't
necessarily hold in general -- but that doesn't matter since
!pmd_present() always takes failure path).
Also, add a comment above find_pmd_or_thp_or_none() to help future
travelers reason about the validity of the code; namely, the possible
mutations that might happen out from under us, depending on how mmap_lock
is held (if at all).

If an ->anon_vma is attached to the VMA, collapse_and_free_pmd() requires
it to be locked.
Page table traversal is allowed under any one of the mmap lock, the
anon_vma lock (if the VMA is associated with an anon_vma), and the
mapping lock (if the VMA is associated with a mapping); and so to be
able to remove page tables, we must hold all three of them.
retract_page_tables() bails out if an ->anon_vma is attached, but does
this check before holding the mmap lock (as the comment above the check
explains).
If we racily merged an existing ->anon_vma (shared with a child
process) from a neighboring VMA, subsequent rmap traversals on pages
belonging to the child will be able to see the page tables that we are
concurrently removing while assuming that nothing else can access them.
Repeat the ->anon_vma check once we hold the mmap lock to ensure that
there really is no concurrent page table access.
Hitting this bug causes a lockdep warning in collapse_and_free_pmd(),
in the line "lockdep_assert_held_write(&vma->anon_vma->root->rwsem)".
It can also lead to use-after-free access.

MADV_COLLAPSE acts on one hugepage-aligned/sized region at a time, until
it has collapsed all eligible memory contained within the bounds supplied
by the user.
At the top of each hugepage iteration we (re)lock mmap_lock and
(re)validate the VMA for eligibility and update variables that might have
changed while mmap_lock was dropped. One thing that might occur is that
the VMA could be resized, and as such, we refetch vma->vm_end to make sure
we don't collapse past the end of the VMA's new end.
However, it's possible that when refetching vma->vm_end that we expand the
region acted on by MADV_COLLAPSE if vma->vm_end is greater than size+len
supplied by the user.
The consequence here is that we may attempt to collapse more memory than
requested, possibly yielding either "too much success" or "false failure"
user-visible results. An example of the former is if we MADV_COLLAPSE the
first 4MiB of a 2TiB mmap()'d file, the incorrect refetch would cause the
operation to block for much longer than anticipated as we attempt to
collapse the entire TiB region. An example of the latter is that applying
MADV_COLLPSE to a 4MiB file mapped to the start of a 6MiB VMA will
successfully collapse the first 4MiB, then incorrectly attempt to collapse
the last hugepage-aligned/sized region -- fail (since readahead/page cache
lookup will fail) -- and report a failure to the user.
I don't believe there is a kernel stability concern here as we always
(re)validate the VMA / region accordingly. Also as Hugh mentions, the
user-visible effects are: we try to collapse more memory than requested
by the user, and/or failing an operation that should have otherwise
succeeded. An example is trying to collapse a 4MiB file contained
within a 12MiB VMA.
Don't expand the acted-on region when refetching vma->vm_end.

uprobe_write_opcode() uses collapse_pte_mapped_thp() to restore huge pmd,
when removing a breakpoint from hugepage text: vma->anon_vma is always set
in that case, so undo the prohibition. And MADV_COLLAPSE ought to be able
to collapse some page tables in a vma which happens to have anon_vma set
from CoWing elsewhere.
Is anon_vma lock required? Almost not: if any page other than expected
subpage of the non-anon huge page is found in the page table, collapse is
aborted without making any change. However, it is possible that an anon
page was CoWed from this extent in another mm or vma, in which case a
concurrent lookup might look here: so keep it away while clearing pmd (but
perhaps we shall go back to using pmd_lock() there in future).
Note that collapse_pte_mapped_thp() is exceptional in freeing a page table
without having cleared its ptes: I'm uneasy about that, and had thought
pte_clear()ing appropriate; but exclusive i_mmap lock does fix the
problem, and we would have to move the mmu_notification if clearing those
ptes.
What this fixes is not a dangerous instability. But I suggest Cc stable
because uprobes "healing" has regressed in that way, so this should follow
8d3c106e19e8 into those stable releases where it was backported (and may
want adjustment there - I'll supply backports as needed).

Replace some calls with their folio equivalents. This change removes 4
calls to compound_head() and is in preparation for the removal of the
try_to_release_page() wrapper.

Compound page (folio) mapcount calculations have been different for anon
and file (or shmem) THPs, and involved the obscure PageDoubleMap flag.
And each huge mapping and unmapping of a file (or shmem) THP involved
atomically incrementing and decrementing the mapcount of every subpage of
that huge page, dirtying many struct page cachelines.
Add subpages_mapcount field to the struct folio and first tail page, so
that the total of subpage mapcounts is available in one place near the
head: then page_mapcount() and total_mapcount() and page_mapped(), and
their folio equivalents, are so quick that anon and file and hugetlb don't
need to be optimized differently. Delete the unloved PageDoubleMap.
page_add and page_remove rmap functions must now maintain the
subpages_mapcount as well as the subpage _mapcount, when dealing with pte
mappings of huge pages; and correct maintenance of NR_ANON_MAPPED and
NR_FILE_MAPPED statistics still needs reading through the subpages, using
nr_subpages_unmapped() - but only when first or last pmd mapping finds
subpages_mapcount raised (double-map case, not the common case).
But are those counts (used to decide when to split an anon THP, and in
vmscan's pagecache_reclaimable heuristic) correctly maintained? Not
quite: since page_remove_rmap() (and also split_huge_pmd()) is often
called without page lock, there can be races when a subpage pte mapcount
0<->1 while compound pmd mapcount 0<->1 is scanning - races which the
previous implementation had prevented. The statistics might become
inaccurate, and even drift down until they underflow through 0. That is
not good enough, but is better dealt with in a followup patch.
Update a few comments on first and second tail page overlaid fields.
hugepage_add_new_anon_rmap() has to "increment" compound_mapcount, but
subpages_mapcount and compound_pincount are already correctly at 0, so
delete its reinitialization of compound_pincount.
A simple 100 X munmap(mmap(2GB, MAP_SHARED|MAP_POPULATE, tmpfs), 2GB) took
18 seconds on small pages, and used to take 1 second on huge pages, but
now takes 119 milliseconds on huge pages. Mapping by pmds a second time
used to take 860ms and now takes 92ms; mapping by pmds after mapping by
ptes (when the scan is needed) used to take 870ms and now takes 495ms.
But there might be some benchmarks which would show a slowdown, because
tail struct pages now fall out of cache until final freeing checks them.

Direct reclaim stats are useful for identifying a potential source for
application latency, as well as spotting issues with kswapd. However,
khugepaged currently distorts the picture: as a kernel thread it doesn't
impose allocation latencies on userspace, and it explicitly opts out of
kswapd reclaim. Its activity showing up in the direct reclaim stats is
misleading. Counting it as kswapd reclaim could also cause confusion when
trying to understand actual kswapd behavior.
Break out khugepaged from the direct reclaim counters into new
pgsteal_khugepaged, pgdemote_khugepaged, pgscan_khugepaged counters.
Test with a huge executable (CONFIG_READ_ONLY_THP_FOR_FS):
pgsteal_kswapd 1342185
pgsteal_direct 0
pgsteal_khugepaged 3623
pgscan_kswapd 1345025
pgscan_direct 0
pgscan_khugepaged 3623

Any codepath that zaps page table entries must invoke MMU notifiers to
ensure that secondary MMUs (like KVM) don't keep accessing pages which
aren't mapped anymore. Secondary MMUs don't hold their own references to
pages that are mirrored over, so failing to notify them can lead to page
use-after-free.
I'm marking this as addressing an issue introduced in commit f3f0e1d2150b
("khugepaged: add support of collapse for tmpfs/shmem pages"), but most of
the security impact of this only came in commit 27e1f8273113 ("khugepaged:
enable collapse pmd for pte-mapped THP"), which actually omitted flushes
for the removal of present PTEs, not just for the removal of empty page
tables.

Since commit 70cbc3cc78a99 ("mm: gup: fix the fast GUP race against THP
collapse"), the lockless_pages_from_mm() fastpath rechecks the pmd_t to
ensure that the page table was not removed by khugepaged in between.
However, lockless_pages_from_mm() still requires that the page table is
not concurrently freed. Fix it by sending IPIs (if the architecture uses
semi-RCU-style page table freeing) before freeing/reusing page tables.

pagetable walks on address ranges mapped by VMAs can be done under the
mmap lock, the lock of an anon_vma attached to the VMA, or the lock of the
VMA's address_space. Only one of these needs to be held, and it does not
need to be held in exclusive mode.
Under those circumstances, the rules for concurrent access to page table
entries are:
- Terminal page table entries (entries that don't point to another page
table) can be arbitrarily changed under the page table lock, with the
exception that they always need to be consistent for
hardware page table walks and lockless_pages_from_mm().
This includes that they can be changed into non-terminal entries.
- Non-terminal page table entries (which point to another page table)
can not be modified; readers are allowed to READ_ONCE() an entry, verify
that it is non-terminal, and then assume that its value will stay as-is.
Retracting a page table involves modifying a non-terminal entry, so
page-table-level locks are insufficient to protect against concurrent page
table traversal; it requires taking all the higher-level locks under which
it is possible to start a page walk in the relevant range in exclusive
mode.
The collapse_huge_page() path for anonymous THP already follows this rule,
but the shmem/file THP path was getting it wrong, making it possible for
concurrent rmap-based operations to cause corruption.

The khugepaged code would pick up the node with the most hit as the preferred
node, and also tries to do some balance if several nodes have the same
hit record. Basically it does conceptually:
* If the target_node <= last_target_node, then iterate from
last_target_node + 1 to MAX_NUMNODES (1024 on default config)
* If the max_value == node_load[nid], then target_node = nid
But there is a corner case, paritucularly for MADV_COLLAPSE, that the
non-existing node may be returned as preferred node.
Assuming the system has 2 nodes, the target_node is 0 and the
last_target_node is 1, if MADV_COLLAPSE path is hit, the max_value may
be 0, then it may return 2 for target_node, but it is actually not
existing (offline), so the warn is triggered.
The node balance was introduced by commit 9f1b868a13ac ("mm: thp:
khugepaged: add policy for finding target node") to satisfy
"numactl --interleave=all". But interleaving is a mere hint rather than
something that has hard requirements.
So use nodemask to record the nodes which have the same hit record, the
hugepage allocation could fallback to those nodes. And remove
__GFP_THISNODE since it does disallow fallback. And if the nodemask
just has one node set, it means there is one single node has the most
hit record, the nodemask approach actually behaves like __GFP_THISNODE.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- Yu Zhao's Multi-Gen LRU patches are here. They've been under test in
linux-next for a couple of months without, to my knowledge, any
negative reports (or any positive ones, come to that).
- Also the Maple Tree from Liam Howlett. An overlapping range-based
tree for vmas. It it apparently slightly more efficient in its own
right, but is mainly targeted at enabling work to reduce mmap_lock
contention.
Liam has identified a number of other tree users in the kernel which
could be beneficially onverted to mapletrees.
Yu Zhao has identified a hard-to-hit but "easy to fix" lockdep splat
at [1]. This has yet to be addressed due to Liam's unfortunately
timed vacation. He is now back and we'll get this fixed up.
- Dmitry Vyukov introduces KMSAN: the Kernel Memory Sanitizer. It uses
clang-generated instrumentation to detect used-unintialized bugs down
to the single bit level.
KMSAN keeps finding bugs. New ones, as well as the legacy ones.
- Yang Shi adds a userspace mechanism (madvise) to induce a collapse of
memory into THPs.
- Zach O'Keefe has expanded Yang Shi's madvise(MADV_COLLAPSE) to
support file/shmem-backed pages.
- userfaultfd updates from Axel Rasmussen
- zsmalloc cleanups from Alexey Romanov
- cleanups from Miaohe Lin: vmscan, hugetlb_cgroup, hugetlb and
memory-failure
- Huang Ying adds enhancements to NUMA balancing memory tiering mode's
page promotion, with a new way of detecting hot pages.
- memcg updates from Shakeel Butt: charging optimizations and reduced
memory consumption.
- memcg cleanups from Kairui Song.
- memcg fixes and cleanups from Johannes Weiner.
- Vishal Moola provides more folio conversions
- Zhang Yi removed ll_rw_block() :(
- migration enhancements from Peter Xu
- migration error-path bugfixes from Huang Ying
- Aneesh Kumar added ability for a device driver to alter the memory
tiering promotion paths. For optimizations by PMEM drivers, DRM
drivers, etc.
- vma merging improvements from Jakub Matěn.
- NUMA hinting cleanups from David Hildenbrand.
- xu xin added aditional userspace visibility into KSM merging
activity.
- THP & KSM code consolidation from Qi Zheng.
- more folio work from Matthew Wilcox.
- KASAN updates from Andrey Konovalov.
- DAMON cleanups from Kaixu Xia.
- DAMON work from SeongJae Park: fixes, cleanups.

Add huge_memory:trace_mm_khugepaged_scan_file tracepoint to
hpage_collapse_scan_file() analogously to hpage_collapse_scan_pmd().
While this change is targeted at debugging MADV_COLLAPSE pathway, the
"mm_khugepaged" prefix is retained for symmetry with
huge_memory:trace_mm_khugepaged_scan_pmd, which retains it's legacy name
to prevent changing kernel ABI as much as possible.

Add support for MADV_COLLAPSE to collapse shmem-backed and file-backed
memory into THPs (requires CONFIG_READ_ONLY_THP_FOR_FS=y).
On success, the backing memory will be a hugepage. For the memory range
and process provided, the page tables will synchronously have a huge pmd
installed, mapping the THP. Other mappings of the file extent mapped by
the memory range may be added to a set of entries that khugepaged will
later process and attempt update their page tables to map the THP by a
pmd.
This functionality unlocks two important uses:
(1) Immediately back executable text by THPs. Current support provided
by CONFIG_READ_ONLY_THP_FOR_FS may take a long time on a large
system which might impair services from serving at their full rated
load after (re)starting. Tricks like mremap(2)'ing text onto
anonymous memory to immediately realize iTLB performance prevents
page sharing and demand paging, both of which increase steady state
memory footprint. Now, we can have the best of both worlds: Peak
upfront performance and lower RAM footprints.
(2) userfaultfd-based live migration of virtual machines satisfy UFFD
faults by fetching native-sized pages over the network (to avoid
latency of transferring an entire hugepage). However, after guest
memory has been fully copied to the new host, MADV_COLLAPSE can
be used to immediately increase guest performance.
Since khugepaged is single threaded, this change now introduces
possibility of collapse contexts racing in file collapse path. There a
important few places to consider:
(1) hpage_collapse_scan_file(), when we xas_pause() and drop RCU.
We could have the memory collapsed out from under us, but
the next xas_for_each() iteration will correctly pick up the
hugepage. The hugepage might not be up to date (insofar as
copying of small page contents might not have completed - the
page still may be locked), but regardless what small page index
we were iterating over, we'll find the hugepage and identify it
as a suitably aligned compound page of order HPAGE_PMD_ORDER.
In khugepaged path, we locklessly check the value of the pmd,
and only add it to deferred collapse array if we find pmd
mapping pte table. This is fine, since other values that could
have raced in right afterwards denote failure, or that the
memory was successfully collapsed, so we don't need further
processing.
In madvise path, we'll take mmap_lock() in write to serialize
against page table updates and will know what to do based on the
true value of the pmd: recheck all ptes if we point to a pte table,
directly install the pmd, if the pmd has been cleared, but
memory not yet faulted, or nothing at all if we find a huge pmd.
It's worth putting emphasis here on how we treat the none pmd
here. If khugepaged has processed this mm's page tables
already, it will have left the pmd cleared (ready for refault by
the process). Depending on the VMA flags and sysfs settings,
amount of RAM on the machine, and the current load, could be a
relatively common occurrence - and as such is one we'd like to
handle successfully in MADV_COLLAPSE. When we see the none pmd
in collapse_pte_mapped_thp(), we've locked mmap_lock in write
and checked (a) huepaged_vma_check() to see if the backing
memory is appropriate still, along with VMA sizing and
appropriate hugepage alignment within the file, and (b) we've
found a hugepage head of order HPAGE_PMD_ORDER at the offset
in the file mapped by our hugepage-aligned virtual address.
Even though the common-case is likely race with khugepaged,
given these checks (regardless how we got here - we could be
operating on a completely different file than originally checked
in hpage_collapse_scan_file() for all we know) it should be safe
to directly make the pmd a huge pmd pointing to this hugepage.
(2) collapse_file() is mostly serialized on the same file extent by
lock sequence:
| lock hupepage
| lock mapping->i_pages
| lock 1st page
| unlock mapping->i_pages
| <page checks>
| lock mapping->i_pages
| page_ref_freeze(3)
| xas_store(hugepage)
| unlock mapping->i_pages
| page_ref_unfreeze(1)
| unlock 1st page
V unlock hugepage
Once a context (who already has their fresh hugepage locked)
locks mapping->i_pages exclusively, it will hold said lock
until it locks the first page, and it will hold that lock until
the after the hugepage has been added to the page cache (and
will unlock the hugepage after page table update, though that
isn't important here).
A racing context that loses the race for mapping->i_pages will
then lose the race to locking the first page. Here - depending
on how far the other racing context has gotten - we might find
the new hugepage (in which case we'll exit cleanly when we
check PageTransCompound()), or we'll find the "old" 1st small
page (in which we'll exit cleanly when we discover unexpected
refcount of 2 after isolate_lru_page()). This is assuming we
are able to successfully lock the page we find - in shmem path,
we could just fail the trylock and exit cleanly anyways.
Failure path in collapse_file() is similar: once we hold lock
on 1st small page, we are serialized against other collapse
contexts. Before the 1st small page is unlocked, we add it
back to the pagecache and unfreeze the refcount appropriately.
Contexts who lost the race to the 1st small page will then find
the same 1st small page with the correct refcount and will be
able to proceed.

The main benefit of THPs are that they can be mapped at the pmd level,
increasing the likelihood of TLB hit and spending less cycles in page
table walks. pte-mapped hugepages - that is - hugepage-aligned compound
pages of order HPAGE_PMD_ORDER mapped by ptes - although being contiguous
in physical memory, don't have this advantage. In fact, one could argue
they are detrimental to system performance overall since they occupy a
precious hugepage-aligned/sized region of physical memory that could
otherwise be used more effectively. Additionally, pte-mapped hugepages
can be the cheapest memory to collapse for khugepaged since no new
hugepage allocation or copying of memory contents is necessary - we only
need to update the mapping page tables.
In the anonymous collapse path, we are able to collapse pte-mapped
hugepages (albeit, perhaps suboptimally), but the file/shmem path makes no
effort when compound pages (of any order) are encountered.
Identify pte-mapped hugepages in the file/shmem collapse path. The
final step of which makes a racy check of the value of the pmd to
ensure it maps a pte table. This should be fine, since races that
result in false-positive (i.e. attempt collapse even though we
shouldn't) will fail later in collapse_pte_mapped_thp() once we
actually lock mmap_lock and reinspect the pmd value. Races that result
in false-negatives (i.e. where we decide to not attempt collapse, but
should have) shouldn't be an issue, since in the worst case, we do
nothing - which is what we've done up to this point. We make a similar
check in retract_page_tables(). If we do think we've found a
pte-mapped hugepgae in khugepaged context, attempt to update page
tables mapping this hugepage.
Note that these collapses still count towards the
/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/khugepaged/pages_collapsed counter,
and if the pte-mapped hugepage was also mapped into multiple process'
address spaces, could be incremented for each page table update. Since we
increment the counter when a pte-mapped hugepage is successfully added to
the list of to-collapse pte-mapped THPs, it's possible that we never
actually update the page table either. This is different from how
file/shmem pages_collapsed accounting works today where only a successful
page cache update is counted (it's also possible here that no page tables
are actually changed). Though it incurs some slop, this is preferred to
either not accounting for the event at all, or plumbing through data in
struct mm_slot on whether to account for the collapse or not.
Also note that work still needs to be done to support arbitrary compound
pages, and that this should all be converted to using folios.

MADV_COLLAPSE is a best-effort request that attempts to set an actionable
errno value if the request cannot be fulfilled at the time. EAGAIN should
be used to communicate that a resource was temporarily unavailable, but
that the user may try again immediately.
SCAN_DEL_PAGE_LRU is an internal result code used when a page cannot be
isolated from it's LRU list. Since this, like SCAN_PAGE_LRU, is likely a
transitory state, make MADV_COLLAPSE return EAGAIN so that users know they
may reattempt the operation.
Another important scenario to consider is race with khugepaged.
khugepaged might isolate a page while MADV_COLLAPSE is interested in it.
Even though racing with khugepaged might mean that the memory has already
been collapsed, signalling an errno that is non-intrinsic to that memory
or arguments provided to madvise(2) lets the user know that future
attempts might (and in this case likely would) succeed, and avoids
false-negative assumptions by the user.

By the time we lock a page in collapse_pte_mapped_thp(), the page mapped
by the address pushed onto the slot's .pte_mapped_thp[] array might have
changed arbitrarily since we last looked at it. We revalidate that the
page is still the head of a compound page, but we don't revalidate if the
compound page is of order HPAGE_PMD_ORDER before applying rmap and page
table updates.
Since the kernel now supports large folios of arbitrary order, and since
replacing page's pte mappings by a pmd mapping only makes sense for
compound pages of order HPAGE_PMD_ORDER, revalidate that the compound
order is indeed of order HPAGE_PMD_ORDER before proceeding.

Basically the test program does the below conceptually:
1. mmap 0x2000000 - 0x21000000 as anonymous region
2. mmap io_uring SQ stuff at 0x20563000 with MAP_FIXED, io_uring_mmap()
actually remaps the pages with special PTEs
3. call MADV_COLLAPSE for 0x20000000 - 0x21000000
It actually triggered the below race:
CPU A CPU B
mmap 0x20000000 - 0x21000000 as anon
madvise_collapse is called on this area
Retrieve start and end address from the vma (NEVER updated later!)
Collapsed the first 2M area and dropped mmap_lock
Acquire mmap_lock
mmap io_uring file at 0x20563000
Release mmap_lock
Reacquire mmap_lock
revalidate vma pass since 0x20200000 + 0x200000 > 0x20563000
scan the next 2M (0x20200000 - 0x20400000), but due to whatever reason it didn't release mmap_lock
scan the 3rd 2M area (start from 0x20400000)
get into the vma created by io_uring
The hend should be updated after MADV_COLLAPSE reacquire mmap_lock since
the vma may be shrunk. We don't have to worry about shink from the other
direction since it could be caught by hugepage_vma_revalidate(). Either
no valid vma is found or the vma doesn't fit anymore.

Since general RCU GUP fast was introduced in commit 2667f50e8b81 ("mm:
introduce a general RCU get_user_pages_fast()"), a TLB flush is no longer
sufficient to handle concurrent GUP-fast in all cases, it only handles
traditional IPI-based GUP-fast correctly. On architectures that send an
IPI broadcast on TLB flush, it works as expected. But on the
architectures that do not use IPI to broadcast TLB flush, it may have the
below race:
CPU A CPU B
THP collapse fast GUP
gup_pmd_range() <-- see valid pmd
gup_pte_range() <-- work on pte
pmdp_collapse_flush() <-- clear pmd and flush
__collapse_huge_page_isolate()
check page pinned <-- before GUP bump refcount
pin the page
check PTE <-- no change
__collapse_huge_page_copy()
copy data to huge page
ptep_clear()
install huge pmd for the huge page
return the stale page
discard the stale page
The race can be fixed by checking whether PMD is changed or not after
taking the page pin in fast GUP, just like what it does for PTE. If the
PMD is changed it means there may be parallel THP collapse, so GUP should
back off.
Also update the stale comment about serializing against fast GUP in
khugepaged.

The following functions are shared between khugepaged and madvise collapse
contexts. Replace the "khugepaged_" prefix with generic "hpage_collapse_"
prefix in such cases:
khugepaged_test_exit() -> hpage_collapse_test_exit()
khugepaged_scan_abort() -> hpage_collapse_scan_abort()
khugepaged_scan_pmd() -> hpage_collapse_scan_pmd()
khugepaged_find_target_node() -> hpage_collapse_find_target_node()
khugepaged_alloc_page() -> hpage_collapse_alloc_page()
The kerenel ABI (e.g. huge_memory:mm_khugepaged_scan_pmd tracepoint) is
unaltered.

This idea was introduced by David Rientjes[1].
Introduce a new madvise mode, MADV_COLLAPSE, that allows users to request
a synchronous collapse of memory at their own expense.
The benefits of this approach are:
* CPU is charged to the process that wants to spend the cycles for the
THP
* Avoid unpredictable timing of khugepaged collapse
Semantics
This call is independent of the system-wide THP sysfs settings, but will
fail for memory marked VM_NOHUGEPAGE. If the ranges provided span
multiple VMAs, the semantics of the collapse over each VMA is independent
from the others. This implies a hugepage cannot cross a VMA boundary. If
collapse of a given hugepage-aligned/sized region fails, the operation may
continue to attempt collapsing the remainder of memory specified.
The memory ranges provided must be page-aligned, but are not required to
be hugepage-aligned. If the memory ranges are not hugepage-aligned, the
start/end of the range will be clamped to the first/last hugepage-aligned
address covered by said range. The memory ranges must span at least one
hugepage-sized region.
All non-resident pages covered by the range will first be
swapped/faulted-in, before being internally copied onto a freshly
allocated hugepage. Unmapped pages will have their data directly
initialized to 0 in the new hugepage. However, for every eligible
hugepage aligned/sized region to-be collapsed, at least one page must
currently be backed by memory (a PMD covering the address range must
already exist).
Allocation for the new hugepage may enter direct reclaim and/or
compaction, regardless of VMA flags. When the system has multiple NUMA
nodes, the hugepage will be allocated from the node providing the most
native pages. This operation operates on the current state of the
specified process and makes no persistent changes or guarantees on how
pages will be mapped, constructed, or faulted in the future
Return Value
If all hugepage-sized/aligned regions covered by the provided range were
either successfully collapsed, or were already PMD-mapped THPs, this
operation will be deemed successful. On success, process_madvise(2)
returns the number of bytes advised, and madvise(2) returns 0. Else, -1
is returned and errno is set to indicate the error for the most-recently
attempted hugepage collapse. Note that many failures might have occurred,
since the operation may continue to collapse in the event a single
hugepage-sized/aligned region fails.
ENOMEM Memory allocation failed or VMA not found
EBUSY Memcg charging failed
EAGAIN Required resource temporarily unavailable. Try again
might succeed.
EINVAL Other error: No PMD found, subpage doesn't have Present
bit set, "Special" page no backed by struct page, VMA
incorrectly sized, address not page-aligned, ...
Most notable here is ENOMEM and EBUSY (new to madvise) which are intended
to provide the caller with actionable feedback so they may take an
appropriate fallback measure.
Use Cases
An immediate user of this new functionality are malloc() implementations
that manage memory in hugepage-sized chunks, but sometimes subrelease
memory back to the system in native-sized chunks via MADV_DONTNEED;
zapping the pmd. Later, when the memory is hot, the implementation could
madvise(MADV_COLLAPSE) to re-back the memory by THPs to regain hugepage
coverage and dTLB performance. TCMalloc is such an implementation that
could benefit from this[2].
Only privately-mapped anon memory is supported for now, but additional
support for file, shmem, and HugeTLB high-granularity mappings[2] is
expected. File and tmpfs/shmem support would permit:
* Backing executable text by THPs. Current support provided by
CONFIG_READ_ONLY_THP_FOR_FS may take a long time on a large system which
might impair services from serving at their full rated load after
(re)starting. Tricks like mremap(2)'ing text onto anonymous memory to
immediately realize iTLB performance prevents page sharing and demand
paging, both of which increase steady state memory footprint. With
MADV_COLLAPSE, we get the best of both worlds: Peak upfront performance
and lower RAM footprints.
* Backing guest memory by hugapages after the memory contents have been
migrated in native-page-sized chunks to a new host, in a
userfaultfd-based live-migration stack.

When scanning an anon pmd to see if it's eligible for collapse, return
SCAN_PMD_MAPPED if the pmd already maps a hugepage. Note that
SCAN_PMD_MAPPED is different from SCAN_PAGE_COMPOUND used in the
file-collapse path, since the latter might identify pte-mapped compound
pages. This is required by MADV_COLLAPSE which necessarily needs to know
what hugepage-aligned/sized regions are already pmd-mapped.
In order to determine if a pmd already maps a hugepage, refactor
mm_find_pmd():
Return mm_find_pmd() to it's pre-commit f72e7dcdd252 ("mm: let mm_find_pmd
fix buggy race with THP fault") behavior. ksm was the only caller that
explicitly wanted a pte-mapping pmd, so open code the pte-mapping logic
there (pmd_present() and pmd_trans_huge() checks).
Undo revert change in commit f72e7dcdd252 ("mm: let mm_find_pmd fix buggy
race with THP fault") that open-coded split_huge_pmd_address() pmd lookup
and use mm_find_pmd() instead.

MADV_COLLAPSE is not coupled to the kernel-oriented sysfs THP settings[1].
hugepage_vma_check() is the authority on determining if a VMA is eligible
for THP allocation/collapse, and currently enforces the sysfs THP
settings. Add a flag to disable these checks. For now, only apply this
arg to anon and file, which use /sys/kernel/transparent_hugepage/enabled.
We can expand this to shmem, which uses
/sys/kernel/transparent_hugepage/shmem_enabled, later.
Use this flag in collapse_pte_mapped_thp() where previously the VMA flags
passed to hugepage_vma_check() were OR'd with VM_HUGEPAGE to elide the
VM_HUGEPAGE check in "madvise" THP mode. Prior to "mm: khugepaged: check
THP flag in hugepage_vma_check()", this check also didn't check "never"
THP mode. As such, this restores the previous behavior of
collapse_pte_mapped_thp() where sysfs THP settings are ignored. See
comment in code for justification why this is OK.

Add .is_khugepaged flag to struct collapse_control so khugepaged-specific
behavior can be elided by MADV_COLLAPSE context.
Start by protecting khugepaged-specific heuristics by this flag. In
MADV_COLLAPSE, the user presumably has reason to believe the collapse will
be beneficial and khugepaged heuristics shouldn't prevent the user from
doing so:
1) sysfs-controlled knobs khugepaged_max_ptes_[none|swap|shared]
2) requirement that some pages in region being collapsed be young or
referenced

Propagate enum scan_result codes back through return values of
functions downstream of khugepaged_scan_file() and
khugepaged_scan_pmd() to inform callers if the operation was
successful, and if not, why.
Since khugepaged_scan_pmd()'s return value already has a specific meaning
(whether mmap_lock was unlocked or not), add a bool* argument to
khugepaged_scan_pmd() to retrieve this information.
Change khugepaged to take action based on the return values of
khugepaged_scan_file() and khugepaged_scan_pmd() instead of acting deep
within the collapsing functions themselves.
hugepage_vma_revalidate() now returns SCAN_SUCCEED on success to be more
consistent with enum scan_result propagation.
Remove dependency on error pointers to communicate to khugepaged that
allocation failed and it should sleep; instead just use the result of the
scan (SCAN_ALLOC_HUGE_PAGE_FAIL if allocation fails).

The following code is duplicated in collapse_huge_page() and
collapse_file():
gfp = alloc_hugepage_khugepaged_gfpmask() | __GFP_THISNODE;
new_page = khugepaged_alloc_page(hpage, gfp, node);
if (!new_page) {
result = SCAN_ALLOC_HUGE_PAGE_FAIL;
goto out;
}
if (unlikely(mem_cgroup_charge(page_folio(new_page), mm, gfp))) {
result = SCAN_CGROUP_CHARGE_FAIL;
goto out;
}
count_memcg_page_event(new_page, THP_COLLAPSE_ALLOC);
Also, "node" is passed as an argument to both collapse_huge_page() and
collapse_file() and obtained the same way, via
khugepaged_find_target_node().
Move all this into a new helper, alloc_charge_hpage(), and remove the
duplicate code from collapse_huge_page() and collapse_file(). Also,
simplify khugepaged_alloc_page() by returning a bool indicating allocation
success instead of a copy of the allocated struct page *.

Modularize hugepage collapse by introducing struct collapse_control. This
structure serves to describe the properties of the requested collapse, as
well as serve as a local scratch pad to use during the collapse itself.
Start by moving global per-node khugepaged statistics into this new
structure. Note that this structure is still statically allocated since
CONFIG_NODES_SHIFT might be arbitrary large, and stack-allocating a
MAX_NUMNODES-sized array could cause -Wframe-large-than= errors.

Patch series "mm: userspace hugepage collapse", v7.
Introduction
--------------------------------
This series provides a mechanism for userspace to induce a collapse of
eligible ranges of memory into transparent hugepages in process context,
thus permitting users to more tightly control their own hugepage
utilization policy at their own expense.
This idea was introduced by David Rientjes[5].
Interface
--------------------------------
The proposed interface adds a new madvise(2) mode, MADV_COLLAPSE, and
leverages the new process_madvise(2) call.
process_madvise(2)
Performs a synchronous collapse of the native pages
mapped by the list of iovecs into transparent hugepages.
This operation is independent of the system THP sysfs settings,
but attempts to collapse VMAs marked VM_NOHUGEPAGE will still fail.
THP allocation may enter direct reclaim and/or compaction.
When a range spans multiple VMAs, the semantics of the collapse
over of each VMA is independent from the others.
Caller must have CAP_SYS_ADMIN if not acting on self.
Return value follows existing process_madvise(2) conventions. A
“success” indicates that all hugepage-sized/aligned regions
covered by the provided range were either successfully
collapsed, or were already pmd-mapped THPs.
madvise(2)
Equivalent to process_madvise(2) on self, with 0 returned on
“success”.
Current Use-Cases
--------------------------------
(1) Immediately back executable text by THPs. Current support provided
by CONFIG_READ_ONLY_THP_FOR_FS may take a long time on a large
system which might impair services from serving at their full rated
load after (re)starting. Tricks like mremap(2)'ing text onto
anonymous memory to immediately realize iTLB performance prevents
page sharing and demand paging, both of which increase steady state
memory footprint. With MADV_COLLAPSE, we get the best of both
worlds: Peak upfront performance and lower RAM footprints. Note
that subsequent support for file-backed memory is required here.
(2) malloc() implementations that manage memory in hugepage-sized
chunks, but sometimes subrelease memory back to the system in
native-sized chunks via MADV_DONTNEED; zapping the pmd. Later,
when the memory is hot, the implementation could
madvise(MADV_COLLAPSE) to re-back the memory by THPs to regain
hugepage coverage and dTLB performance. TCMalloc is such an
implementation that could benefit from this[6]. A prior study of
Google internal workloads during evaluation of Temeraire, a
hugepage-aware enhancement to TCMalloc, showed that nearly 20% of
all cpu cycles were spent in dTLB stalls, and that increasing
hugepage coverage by even small amount can help with that[7].
(3) userfaultfd-based live migration of virtual machines satisfy UFFD
faults by fetching native-sized pages over the network (to avoid
latency of transferring an entire hugepage). However, after guest
memory has been fully copied to the new host, MADV_COLLAPSE can
be used to immediately increase guest performance. Note that
subsequent support for file/shmem-backed memory is required here.
(4) HugeTLB high-granularity mapping allows HugeTLB a HugeTLB page to
be mapped at different levels in the page tables[8]. As it's not
"transparent" like THP, HugeTLB high-granularity mappings require
an explicit user API. It is intended that MADV_COLLAPSE be co-opted
for this use case[9]. Note that subsequent support for HugeTLB
memory is required here.
Future work
--------------------------------
Only private anonymous memory is supported by this series. File and
shmem memory support will be added later.
One possible user of this functionality is a userspace agent that
attempts to optimize THP utilization system-wide by allocating THPs
based on, for example, task priority, task performance requirements, or
heatmaps. For the latter, one idea that has already surfaced is using
DAMON to identify hot regions, and driving THP collapse through a new
DAMOS_COLLAPSE scheme[10].
This patch (of 17):
The khugepaged has optimization to reduce huge page allocation calls for
!CONFIG_NUMA by carrying the allocated but failed to collapse huge page to
the next loop. CONFIG_NUMA doesn't do so since the next loop may try to
collapse huge page from a different node, so it doesn't make too much
sense to carry it.
But when NUMA=n, the huge page is allocated by khugepaged_prealloc_page()
before scanning the address space, so it means huge page may be allocated
even though there is no suitable range for collapsing. Then the page
would be just freed if khugepaged already made enough progress. This
could make NUMA=n run have 5 times as much thp_collapse_alloc as NUMA=y
run. This problem actually makes things worse due to the way more
pointless THP allocations and makes the optimization pointless.
This could be fixed by carrying the huge page across scans, but it will
complicate the code further and the huge page may be carried indefinitely.
But if we take one step back, the optimization itself seems not worth
keeping nowadays since:
* Not too many users build NUMA=n kernel nowadays even though the kernel is
actually running on a non-NUMA machine. Some small devices may run NUMA=n
kernel, but I don't think they actually use THP.
* Since commit 44042b449872 ("mm/page_alloc: allow high-order pages to be
stored on the per-cpu lists"), THP could be cached by pcp. This actually
somehow does the job done by the optimization.

Rewrite the core freezer to behave better wrt thawing and be simpler
in general.
By replacing PF_FROZEN with TASK_FROZEN, a special block state, it is
ensured frozen tasks stay frozen until thawed and don't randomly wake
up early, as is currently possible.
As such, it does away with PF_FROZEN and PF_FREEZER_SKIP, freeing up
two PF_flags (yay!).
Specifically; the current scheme works a little like:
freezer_do_not_count();
schedule();
freezer_count();
And either the task is blocked, or it lands in try_to_freezer()
through freezer_count(). Now, when it is blocked, the freezer
considers it frozen and continues.
However, on thawing, once pm_freezing is cleared, freezer_count()
stops working, and any random/spurious wakeup will let a task run
before its time.
That is, thawing tries to thaw things in explicit order; kernel
threads and workqueues before doing bringing SMP back before userspace
etc.. However due to the above mentioned races it is entirely possible
for userspace tasks to thaw (by accident) before SMP is back.
This can be a fatal problem in asymmetric ISA architectures (eg ARMv9)
where the userspace task requires a special CPU to run.
As said; replace this with a special task state TASK_FROZEN and add
the following state transitions:
TASK_FREEZABLE -> TASK_FROZEN
__TASK_STOPPED -> TASK_FROZEN
__TASK_TRACED -> TASK_FROZEN
The new TASK_FREEZABLE can be set on any state part of TASK_NORMAL
(IOW. TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE and TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE) -- any such state
is already required to deal with spurious wakeups and the freezer
causes one such when thawing the task (since the original state is
lost).
The special __TASK_{STOPPED,TRACED} states *can* be restored since
their canonical state is in ->jobctl.
With this, frozen tasks need an explicit TASK_FROZEN wakeup and are
free of undue (early / spurious) wakeups.

The page fault path checks THP eligibility with __transhuge_page_enabled()
which does the similar thing as hugepage_vma_check(), so use
hugepage_vma_check() instead.
However page fault allows DAX and !anon_vma cases, so added a new flag,
in_pf, to hugepage_vma_check() to make page fault work correctly.
The in_pf flag is also used to skip shmem and file THP for page fault
since shmem handles THP in its own shmem_fault() and file THP allocation
on fault is not supported yet.
Also remove hugepage_vma_enabled() since hugepage_vma_check() is the only
caller now, it is not necessary to have a helper function.

The transparent_hugepage_active() was introduced to show THP eligibility
bit in smaps in proc, smaps is the only user. But it actually does the
similar check as hugepage_vma_check() which is used by khugepaged. We
definitely don't have to maintain two similar checks, so kill
transparent_hugepage_active().
This patch also fixed the wrong behavior for VM_NO_KHUGEPAGED vmas.
Also move hugepage_vma_check() to huge_memory.c and huge_mm.h since it
is not only for khugepaged anymore.

The hugepage_vma_revalidate() needs to check if the vma is still anonymous
vma or not since the address may be unmapped then remapped to file before
khugepaged reaquired the mmap_lock.
The old comment is not quite helpful, elaborate this with better comment.

There are couple of places that check whether the vma size is ok for THP
or whether address fits, they are open coded and duplicate, use
transhuge_vma_suitable() to do the job by passing in (vma->end -
HPAGE_PMD_SIZE).
Move vma size check into hugepage_vma_check(). This will make
khugepaged_enter() is as same as khugepaged_enter_vma(). There is just
one caller for khugepaged_enter(), replace it to khugepaged_enter_vma()
and remove khugepaged_enter().

Patch series "Cleanup transhuge_xxx helpers", v5.
This series is the follow-up of the discussion about cleaning up
transhuge_xxx helpers at
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/627a71f8-e879-69a5-ceb3-fc8d29d2f7f1@suse.cz/.
THP has a bunch of helpers that do VMA sanity check for different paths,
they do the similar checks for the most callsites and have a lot duplicate
codes. And it is confusing what helpers should be used at what
conditions.
This series reorganized and cleaned up the code so that we could
consolidate all the checks into hugepage_vma_check().
The transhuge_vma_enabled(), transparent_hugepage_active() and
__transparent_hugepage_enabled() are killed by this series.
This patch (of 7):
Currently the THP flag check in hugepage_vma_check() will fallthrough if
the flag is NEVER and VM_HUGEPAGE is set. This is not a problem for now
since all the callers have the flag checked before or can't be invoked if
the flag is NEVER.
However, the following patch will call hugepage_vma_check() in more
places, for example, page fault, so this flag must be checked in
hugepge_vma_check().

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.

Transhuge swapcaches won't be freed in __collapse_huge_page_copy(). It's
because release_pte_page() is not called for these pages and thus
free_page_and_swap_cache can't grab the page lock. These pages won't be
freed from swap cache even if we are the only user until next time
reclaim. It shouldn't hurt indeed, but we could try to free these pages
to save more memory for system.

nr_none is always 0 for non-shmem case because the page can be read from

Also only adjust the nrpages and uncharge shmem when nr_none != 0 to save

When do_swap_page returns VM_FAULT_RETRY, we do not retry here and thus
swap entry will remain in pagetable. This will result in later failure.
So stop swapping in pages in this case to save cpu cycles. As A further
optimization, mmap_lock is released when __collapse_huge_page_swapin()
fails to avoid relocking mmap_lock. And "swapped_in++" is moved after
error handling to make it more accurate.

Patch series "A few cleanup patches for khugepaged", v2.
This series contains a few cleaup patches to remove unneeded return value,
use helper macro, fix typos and so on. More details can be found in the
respective changelogs.
This patch (of 7):
If we reach here, khugepaged_scan_mm_slot() has already made sure that
hugepage is enabled for shmem, via its call to hugepage_vma_check().
Remove this duplicated check.

khugepaged_enter() section called by shmem_mmap(), so consolidate them
into one helper and rename it to khugepaged_enter_vma().

The most callers of khugepaged_enter() don't care about the return value.
Only dup_mmap(), anonymous THP page fault and MADV_HUGEPAGE handle the
error by returning -ENOMEM. Actually it is not harmful for them to ignore
the error case either. It also sounds overkilling to fail fork() and page
fault early due to khugepaged_enter() error, and MADV_HUGEPAGE does set
VM_HUGEPAGE flag regardless of the error.

Since commit a4aeaa06d45e ("mm: khugepaged: skip huge page collapse for
special files"), khugepaged just collapses THP for regular file which is
the intended usecase for readonly fs THP. Only show regular file as THP
eligible accordingly.
And make file_thp_enabled() available for khugepaged too in order to
remove duplicate code.

The DAX vma may be seen by khugepaged when the mm has other khugepaged
suitable vmas. So khugepaged may try to collapse THP for DAX vma, but it
will fail due to page sanity check, for example, page is not on LRU.
So it is not harmful, but it is definitely pointless to run khugepaged
against DAX vma, so skip it in early check.

The hugepage_vma_check() called by khugepaged_enter_vma_merge() does check
VM_NO_KHUGEPAGED. Remove the check from caller and move the check in
hugepage_vma_check() up.
More checks may be run for VM_NO_KHUGEPAGED vmas, but MADV_HUGEPAGE is
definitely not a hot path, so cleaner code does outweigh.

When we're trying to collapse a 2M huge shmem page, don't retract pgtable
pmd page if it's registered with uffd-wp, because that pgtable could have
pte markers installed. Recycling of that pgtable means we'll lose the pte
markers. That could cause data loss for an uffd-wp enabled application on
shmem.
Instead of disabling khugepaged on these files, simply skip retracting
these special VMAs, then the page cache can still be merged into a huge
thp, and other mm/vma can still map the range of file with a huge thp when
proper.
Note that checking VM_UFFD_WP needs to be done with mmap_sem held for
write, that avoids race like:
khugepaged user thread
========== ===========
check VM_UFFD_WP, not set
UFFDIO_REGISTER with uffd-wp on shmem
wr-protect some pages (install markers)
take mmap_sem write lock
erase pmd and free pmd page
--> pte markers are dropped unnoticed!

New anonymous pages are always mapped natively: only THP/khugepaged code
maps a new compound anonymous page and passes "true". Otherwise, we're
just dealing with simple, non-compound pages.
Let's give the interface clearer semantics and document these. Remove the
PageTransCompound() sanity check from page_add_new_anon_rmap().

reuse_swap_page() currently indicates if we can write to an anon page
without COW. A COW is required if the page is shared by multiple
processes (either already mapped or via swap entries) or if there is
concurrent writeback that cannot tolerate concurrent page modifications.
However, in the context of khugepaged we're not actually going to write to
a read-only mapped page, we'll copy the page content to our newly
allocated THP and map that THP writable. All we have to make sure is that
the read-only mapped page we're about to copy won't get reused by another
process sharing the page, otherwise, page content would get modified. But
that is already guaranteed via multiple mechanisms (e.g., holding a
reference, holding the page lock, removing the rmap after copying the
page).
The swapcache handling was introduced in commit 10359213d05a ("mm:
incorporate read-only pages into transparent huge pages") and it sounds
like it merely wanted to mimic what do_swap_page() would do when trying to
map a page obtained via the swapcache writable.
As that logic is unnecessary, let's just remove it, removing the last user
of reuse_swap_page().

Change all three callers and the worker function try_to_unmap_one().
Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) <willy@infradead.org>

collapse_file() is using unmap_mapping_pages(1) on each small page found
mapped, unlike others (reclaim, migration, splitting, memory-failure) who
use try_to_unmap(). There are four advantages to try_to_unmap(): first,
its TTU_IGNORE_MLOCK option now avoids leaving mlocked page in pagevec;
second, its vma lookup uses i_mmap_lock_read() not i_mmap_lock_write();
third, it breaks out early if page is not mapped everywhere it might be;
fourth, its TTU_BATCH_FLUSH option can be used, as in page reclaim, to
save up all the TLB flushing until all of the pages have been unmapped.
Wild guess: perhaps it was originally written to use try_to_unmap(),
but hit the VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(page_mapped) after unmapping, because without
TTU_SYNC it may skip page table locks; but unmap_mapping_pages() never
skips them, so fixed the issue. I did once hit that VM_BUG_ON_PAGE()
since making this change: we could pass TTU_SYNC here, but I think just
delete the check - the race is very rare, this is an ordinary small page
so we don't need to be so paranoid about mapcount surprises, and the
page_ref_freeze() just below already handles the case adequately.

Add vma argument to mlock_vma_page() and munlock_vma_page(), make them
inline functions which check (vma->vm_flags & VM_LOCKED) before calling
mlock_page() and munlock_page() in mm/mlock.c.
Add bool compound to mlock_vma_page() and munlock_vma_page(): this is
because we have understandable difficulty in accounting pte maps of THPs,
and if passed a PageHead page, mlock_page() and munlock_page() cannot
tell whether it's a pmd map to be counted or a pte map to be ignored.
Add vma arg to page_add_file_rmap() and page_remove_rmap(), like the
others, and use that to call mlock_vma_page() at the end of the page
adds, and munlock_vma_page() at the end of page_remove_rmap() (end or
beginning? unimportant, but end was easier for assertions in testing).
No page lock is required (although almost all adds happen to hold it):
delete the "Serialize with page migration" BUG_ON(!PageLocked(page))s.
Certainly page lock did serialize with page migration, but I'm having
difficulty explaining why that was ever important.
Mlock accounting on THPs has been hard to define, differed between anon
and file, involved PageDoubleMap in some places and not others, required
clear_page_mlock() at some points. Keep it simple now: just count the
pmds and ignore the ptes, there is no reason for ptes to undo pmd mlocks.
page_add_new_anon_rmap() callers unchanged: they have long been calling
lru_cache_add_inactive_or_unevictable(), which does its own VM_LOCKED
handling (it also checks for not VM_SPECIAL: I think that's overcautious,
and inconsistent with other checks, that mmap_region() already prevents
VM_LOCKED on VM_SPECIAL; but haven't quite convinced myself to change it).

There are interfaces to adjust max_ptes_none, max_ptes_swap,
max_ptes_shared values, see
/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/khugepaged/.
But system administrator may not know which value is the best. So Add
those events to support adjusting max_ptes_* to suitable values.
For example, if default max_ptes_swap value causes too much failures,
and system uses zram whose IO is fast, administrator could increase
max_ptes_swap until THP_SCAN_EXCEED_SWAP_PTE not increase anymore.

None of the callers care about the total_map_swapcount() any more.

We have ptep_get_and_clear() and ptep_get_and_clear_full() helpers to
clear PTE from user page tables, but there is no variant for simple
clear of a present PTE from user page tables without using a low level
pte_clear() which can be either native or para-virtualised.
Add a new ptep_clear() that can be used in common code to clear PTEs
from page table. We will need this call later in order to add a hook
for page table check.

We currently store large folios as 2^N consecutive entries. While this
consumes rather more memory than necessary, it also turns out to be buggy.
A writeback operation which starts within a tail page of a dirty folio will
not write back the folio as the xarray's dirty bit is only set on the
head index. With multi-index entries, the dirty bit will be found no
matter where in the folio the operation starts.
This does end up simplifying the page cache slightly, although not as
much as I had hoped.
