Since the introduction of FAULT_FLAG_SIZE to the vm_fault flag, it has
been somewhat painful with getting the flags set and removed at the
correct locations. More than one kernel oops was introduced due to
difficulties of getting the placement correctly.
Remove the flag values and introduce an input parameter to huge_fault
that indicates the size of the page entry. This makes the code easier
to trace and should avoid the issues we see with the fault flags where
removal of the flag was necessary in the fallback paths.

Patch series "1G transparent hugepage support for device dax", v2.
The following series implements support for 1G trasparent hugepage on
x86 for device dax. The bulk of the code was written by Mathew Wilcox a
while back supporting transparent 1G hugepage for fs DAX. I have
forward ported the relevant bits to 4.10-rc. The current submission has
only the necessary code to support device DAX.
Comments from Dan Williams: So the motivation and intended user of this
functionality mirrors the motivation and users of 1GB page support in
hugetlbfs. Given expected capacities of persistent memory devices an
in-memory database may want to reduce tlb pressure beyond what they can
already achieve with 2MB mappings of a device-dax file. We have
customer feedback to that effect as Willy mentioned in his previous
version of these patches [1].
[1]: https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/1/31/52
Comments from Nilesh @ Oracle:
There are applications which have a process model; and if you assume
10,000 processes attempting to mmap all the 6TB memory available on a
server; we are looking at the following:
processes : 10,000
memory : 6TB
pte @ 4k page size: 8 bytes / 4K of memory * #processes = 6TB / 4k * 8 * 10000 = 1.5GB * 80000 = 120,000GB
pmd @ 2M page size: 120,000 / 512 = ~240GB
pud @ 1G page size: 240GB / 512 = ~480MB
As you can see with 2M pages, this system will use up an exorbitant
amount of DRAM to hold the page tables; but the 1G pages finally brings
it down to a reasonable level. Memory sizes will keep increasing; so
this number will keep increasing.
An argument can be made to convert the applications from process model
to thread model, but in the real world that may not be always practical.
Hopefully this helps explain the use case where this is valuable.
This patch (of 3):
In preparation for adding the ability to handle PUD pages, convert
vm_operations_struct.pmd_fault to vm_operations_struct.huge_fault. The
vm_fault structure is extended to include a union of the different page
table pointers that may be needed, and three flag bits are reserved to
indicate which type of pointer is in the union.

As for this pull request the bulk of it has been in -next for several
releases leading to one late fix being added (commit 868f036fee
("libnvdimm: fix mishandled nvdimm_clear_poison() return value")). It
has received a build success notification from the 0day-kbuild robot

4.9 added support for multiple namespaces per PMEM-region there is

While this information is available by looking at the nvdimm parent
device that may not always be the case when/if we add support for other
memory regions. Tooling should not depend on walking a given ancestor
topology that is not guaranteed by the device's class. For example, a
device-dax instance will always have a dax_region parent, but it may not
always have a libnvdimm "dax" device as a grandparent.

Hugh notes in response to commit 4cb19355ea "device-dax: fail all
private mapping attempts":
"I think that is more restrictive than you intended: haven't tried, but I
believe it rejects a PROT_READ, MAP_SHARED, O_RDONLY fd mmap, leaving no
way to mmap /dev/dax without write permission to it."
Indeed it does restrict read-only mappings, switch to checking
VM_MAYSHARE, not VM_SHARED.

Here is an example /proc/iomem listing for a system with 2 namespaces,
one in "sector" mode and one in "memory" mode:
1fc000000-2fbffffff : Persistent Memory (legacy)
1fc000000-2fbffffff : namespace1.0
340000000-34fffffff : Persistent Memory
340000000-34fffffff : btt0.1
Here is the corresponding ndctl listing:
# ndctl list
[
{
"dev":"namespace1.0",
"mode":"memory",
"size":4294967296,
"blockdev":"pmem1"
},
{
"dev":"namespace0.0",
"mode":"sector",
"size":267091968,
"uuid":"f7594f86-badb-4592-875f-ded577da2eaf",
"sector_size":4096,
"blockdev":"pmem0s"
}
]
Notice that the ndctl listing is purely in terms of namespace devices,
while the iomem listing leaks the internal "btt0.1" implementation
detail. Given that ndctl requires the namespace device name to change
the mode, for example:
# ndctl create-namespace --reconfig=namespace0.0 --mode=raw --force
...use the namespace name in the iomem listing to keep the claiming
device name consistent across different mode settings.

All the extents of a dax-device must match the alignment of the region.
Otherwise, we are unable to guarantee fault semantics of a given page
size. The region must be self-consistent itself as well.

In support of enabling resize / truncate of device-dax instances, define
a pseudo-fs to provide a unified inode/address space for vm operations.

A goal of the device-DAX interface is to be able to support many
exclusive allocations (partitions) of performance / feature
differentiated memory. This count may exceed the default minors limit
of 256.
As a result of switching to an embedded cdev the inode-to-dax_dev
conversion is simplified, as well as reference counting which can switch
to the cdev kobject lifetime.

The kref in dax_dev can be made redundant if the final put_device() on
the device associated with the dax_dev frees the dax_dev. This can be
accomplished by embedding a struct device in struct dax_dev, open coding
device_create() and specifying a custom release method.

Shorten the prefix of the file operations to distinguish them from
operations on the struct device associated with the dax_dev.

In order to convert devm_create_dax_dev() to use cdev, it will need
access to dax_fops. Move dax_fops and related function definitions
before devm_create_dax_dev().

If devm_add_action() fails, we are explicitly calling the cleanup to free
the resources allocated. Use the helper devm_add_action_or_reset()
and return directly in case of error, since the cleanup function
has been already called by the helper if there was any error.

The "Device DAX" core enables dax mappings of performance / feature
differentiated memory. An open mapping or file handle keeps the backing
struct device live, but new mappings are only possible while the device
is enabled. Faults are handled under rcu_read_lock to synchronize
with the enabled state of the device.
Similar to the filesystem-dax case the backing memory may optionally
have struct page entries. However, unlike fs-dax there is no support
for private mappings, or mappings that are not backed by media (see
use of zero-page in fs-dax).
Mappings are always guaranteed to match the alignment of the dax_region.
If the dax_region is configured to have a 2MB alignment, all mappings
are guaranteed to be backed by a pmd entry. Contrast this determinism
with the fs-dax case where pmd mappings are opportunistic. If userspace
attempts to force a misaligned mapping, the driver will fail the mmap
attempt. See dax_dev_check_vma() for other scenarios that are rejected,
like MAP_PRIVATE mappings.

Device DAX is the device-centric analogue of Filesystem DAX
(CONFIG_FS_DAX). It allows memory ranges to be allocated and mapped
without need of an intervening file system. Device DAX is strict,
precise and predictable. Specifically this interface:
1/ Guarantees fault granularity with respect to a given page size (pte,
pmd, or pud) set at configuration time.
2/ Enforces deterministic behavior by being strict about what fault
scenarios are supported.
For example, by forcing MADV_DONTFORK semantics and omitting MAP_PRIVATE
support device-dax guarantees that a mapping always behaves/performs the
same once established. It is the "what you see is what you get" access
mechanism to differentiated memory vs filesystem DAX which has
filesystem specific implementation semantics.
Persistent memory is the first target, but the mechanism is also
targeted for exclusive allocations of performance differentiated memory
ranges.
This commit is limited to the base device driver infrastructure to
associate a dax device with pmem range.
