Commit 3f8fd02b1b ("mm/vmalloc: Sync unmappings in
__purge_vmap_area_lazy()") introduced a call to vmalloc_sync_all() in
the vunmap() code-path. While this change was necessary to maintain
correctness on x86-32-pae kernels, it also adds additional cycles for
architectures that don't need it.
Specifically on x86-64 with CONFIG_VMAP_STACK=y some people reported
severe performance regressions in micro-benchmarks because it now also
calls the x86-64 implementation of vmalloc_sync_all() on vunmap(). But
the vmalloc_sync_all() implementation on x86-64 is only needed for newly
created mappings.
To avoid the unnecessary work on x86-64 and to gain the performance
back, split up vmalloc_sync_all() into two functions:
* vmalloc_sync_mappings(), and
* vmalloc_sync_unmappings()
Most call-sites to vmalloc_sync_all() only care about new mappings being
synchronized. The only exception is the new call-site added in the
above mentioned commit.
Shile Zhang directed us to a report of an 80% regression in reaim
throughput.

When prev is NULL, this means vma should be the first element in the list.
Then next should be current first one (mm->mmap), no matter whether we
have parent or not.

Patch series "mm: Use vm_map_pages() and vm_map_pages_zero() API", v5.
This patch (of 5):
Previouly drivers have their own way of mapping range of kernel
pages/memory into user vma and this was done by invoking vm_insert_page()
within a loop.
As this pattern is common across different drivers, it can be generalized
by creating new functions and using them across the drivers.
vm_map_pages() is the API which can be used to map kernel memory/pages in
drivers which have considered vm_pgoff
vm_map_pages_zero() is the API which can be used to map a range of kernel
memory/pages in drivers which have not considered vm_pgoff. vm_pgoff is
passed as default 0 for those drivers.
We _could_ then at a later "fix" these drivers which are using
vm_map_pages_zero() to behave according to the normal vm_pgoff offsetting
simply by removing the _zero suffix on the function name and if that
causes regressions, it gives us an easy way to revert.
Tested on Rockchip hardware and display is working, including talking to
Lima via prime.

Getting pages from ZONE_DEVICE memory needs to check the backing device's
live-ness, which is tracked in the device's dev_pagemap metadata. This
metadata is stored in a radix tree and looking it up adds measurable
software overhead.
This patch avoids repeating this relatively costly operation when
dev_pagemap is used by caching the last dev_pagemap while getting user
pages. The gup_benchmark kernel self test reports this reduces time to
get user pages to as low as 1/3 of the previous time.

The vm_area_struct is one of the most fundamental memory management
objects, but the management of it is entirely open-coded evertwhere,
ranging from allocation and freeing (using kmem_cache_[z]alloc and
kmem_cache_free) to initializing all the fields.
We want to unify this in order to end up having some unified
initialization of the vmas, and the first step to this is to at least
have basic allocation functions.
Right now those functions are literally just wrappers around the
kmem_cache_*() calls. This is a purely mechanical conversion:
# new vma:
kmem_cache_zalloc(vm_area_cachep, GFP_KERNEL) -> vm_area_alloc()
# copy old vma
kmem_cache_alloc(vm_area_cachep, GFP_KERNEL) -> vm_area_dup(old)
# free vma
kmem_cache_free(vm_area_cachep, vma) -> vm_area_free(vma)
to the point where the old vma passed in to the vm_area_dup() function
isn't even used yet (because I've left all the old manual initialization
alone).

Pull removal of in-kernel calls to syscalls from Dominik Brodowski:
"System calls are interaction points between userspace and the kernel.
Therefore, system call functions such as sys_xyzzy() or
compat_sys_xyzzy() should only be called from userspace via the
syscall table, but not from elsewhere in the kernel.
At least on 64-bit x86, it will likely be a hard requirement from
v4.17 onwards to not call system call functions in the kernel: It is
better to use use a different calling convention for system calls
there, where struct pt_regs is decoded on-the-fly in a syscall wrapper
which then hands processing over to the actual syscall function. This
means that only those parameters which are actually needed for a
specific syscall are passed on during syscall entry, instead of
filling in six CPU registers with random user space content all the
time (which may cause serious trouble down the call chain). Those
x86-specific patches will be pushed through the x86 tree in the near
future.
Moreover, rules on how data may be accessed may differ between kernel
data and user data. This is another reason why calling sys_xyzzy() is
generally a bad idea, and -- at most -- acceptable in arch-specific
code.
This patchset removes all in-kernel calls to syscall functions in the
kernel with the exception of arch/. On top of this, it cleans up the
three places where many syscalls are referenced or prototyped, namely
kernel/sys_ni.c, include/linux/syscalls.h and include/linux/compat.h"

Using this helper allows us to avoid the in-kernel calls to the
sys_mmap_pgoff() syscall. The ksys_ prefix denotes that this function is
meant as a drop-in replacement for the syscall. In particular, it uses the
same calling convention as sys_mmap_pgoff().
This patch is part of a series which removes in-kernel calls to syscalls.
On this basis, the syscall entry path can be streamlined. For details, see

Several users of unmap_mapping_range() would prefer to express their
range in pages rather than bytes. Unfortuately, on a 32-bit kernel, you
have to remember to cast your page number to a 64-bit type before
shifting it, and four places in the current tree didn't remember to do
that. That's a sign of a bad interface.
Conveniently, unmap_mapping_range() actually converts from bytes into
pages, so hoist the guts of unmap_mapping_range() into a new function
unmap_mapping_pages() and convert the callers which want to use pages.

__vmalloc* allows users to provide gfp flags for the underlying
allocation. This API is quite popular
$ git grep "=[[:space:]]__vmalloc\|return[[:space:]]*__vmalloc" | wc -l
77
The only problem is that many people are not aware that they really want
to give __GFP_HIGHMEM along with other flags because there is really no
reason to consume precious lowmemory on CONFIG_HIGHMEM systems for pages
which are mapped to the kernel vmalloc space. About half of users don't
use this flag, though. This signals that we make the API unnecessarily
too complex.
This patch simply uses __GFP_HIGHMEM implicitly when allocating pages to
be mapped to the vmalloc space. Current users which add __GFP_HIGHMEM
are simplified and drop the flag.

Patch series "kvmalloc", v5.
There are many open coded kmalloc with vmalloc fallback instances in the
tree. Most of them are not careful enough or simply do not care about
the underlying semantic of the kmalloc/page allocator which means that
a) some vmalloc fallbacks are basically unreachable because the kmalloc
part will keep retrying until it succeeds b) the page allocator can
invoke a really disruptive steps like the OOM killer to move forward
which doesn't sound appropriate when we consider that the vmalloc
fallback is available.
As it can be seen implementing kvmalloc requires quite an intimate
knowledge if the page allocator and the memory reclaim internals which
strongly suggests that a helper should be implemented in the memory
subsystem proper.
Most callers, I could find, have been converted to use the helper
instead. This is patch 6. There are some more relying on __GFP_REPEAT
in the networking stack which I have converted as well and Eric Dumazet
was not opposed [2] to convert them as well.

[2] http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1485273626.16328.301.camel@edumazet-glaptop3.roam.corp.google.com
This patch (of 9):
Using kmalloc with the vmalloc fallback for larger allocations is a
common pattern in the kernel code. Yet we do not have any common helper
for that and so users have invented their own helpers. Some of them are
really creative when doing so. Let's just add kv[mz]alloc and make sure
it is implemented properly. This implementation makes sure to not make
a large memory pressure for > PAGE_SZE requests (__GFP_NORETRY) and also
to not warn about allocation failures. This also rules out the OOM
killer as the vmalloc is a more approapriate fallback than a disruptive
user visible action.
This patch also changes some existing users and removes helpers which
are specific for them. In some cases this is not possible (e.g.
ext4_kvmalloc, libcfs_kvzalloc) because those seems to be broken and
require GFP_NO{FS,IO} context which is not vmalloc compatible in general
(note that the page table allocation is GFP_KERNEL). Those need to be
fixed separately.
While we are at it, document that __vmalloc{_node} about unsupported gfp
mask because there seems to be a lot of confusion out there.
kvmalloc_node will warn about GFP_KERNEL incompatible (which are not
superset) flags to catch new abusers. Existing ones would have to die
slowly.

Pull sched.h split-up from Ingo Molnar:
"The point of these changes is to significantly reduce the

have a cleaner header structure.
After these changes the new <linux/sched.h>'s typical preprocessed
size goes down from a previous ~0.68 MB (~22K lines) to ~0.45 MB (~15K
lines), which is around 40% faster to build on typical configs.
Not much changed from the last version (-v2) posted three weeks ago: I
eliminated quirks, backmerged fixes plus I rebased it to an upstream
SHA1 from yesterday that includes most changes queued up in -next plus
all sched.h changes that were pending from Andrew.
I've re-tested the series both on x86 and on cross-arch defconfigs,
and did a bisectability test at a number of random points.
I tried to test as many build configurations as possible, but some
build breakage is probably still left - but it should be mostly
limited to architectures that have no cross-compiler binaries
available on kernel.org, and non-default configurations"

When a non-cooperative userfaultfd monitor copies pages in the
background, it may encounter regions that were already unmapped.
Addition of UFFD_EVENT_UNMAP allows the uffd monitor to track precisely
changes in the virtual memory layout.
Since there might be different uffd contexts for the affected VMAs, we
first should create a temporary representation for the unmap event for
each uffd context and then notify them one by one to the appropriate
userfault file descriptors.
The event notification occurs after the mmap_sem has been released.

show_mem() allows to filter out node specific data which is irrelevant
to the allocation request via SHOW_MEM_FILTER_NODES. The filtering is
done in skip_free_areas_node which skips all nodes which are not in the
mems_allowed of the current process. This works most of the time as
expected because the nodemask shouldn't be outside of the allocating
task but there are some exceptions. E.g. memory hotplug might want to
request allocations from outside of the allowed nodes (see
new_node_page).
Get rid of this hardcoded behavior and push the allocation mask down the
show_mem path and use it instead of cpuset_current_mems_allowed. NULL
nodemask is interpreted as cpuset_current_mems_allowed.

Currently we have two different structures for passing fault information
around - struct vm_fault and struct fault_env. DAX will need more
information in struct vm_fault to handle its faults so the content of
that structure would become event closer to fault_env. Furthermore it
would need to generate struct fault_env to be able to call some of the
generic functions. So at this point I don't think there's much use in
keeping these two structures separate. Just embed into struct vm_fault
all that is needed to use it for both purposes.

Unexport the low-level __get_user_pages_unlocked() function and replaces
invocations with calls to more appropriate higher-level functions.
In hva_to_pfn_slow() we are able to replace __get_user_pages_unlocked()
with get_user_pages_unlocked() since we can now pass gup_flags.
In async_pf_execute() and process_vm_rw_single_vec() we need to pass
different tsk, mm arguments so get_user_pages_remote() is the sane
replacement in these cases (having added manual acquisition and release
of mmap_sem.)
Additionally get_user_pages_remote() reintroduces use of the FOLL_TOUCH
flag. However, this flag was originally silently dropped by commit
1e9877902d ("mm/gup: Introduce get_user_pages_remote()"), so this
appears to have been unintentional and reintroducing it is therefore not
an issue.

"After a lot of discussion and work we have finally reachanged a basic
understanding of what is necessary to make unprivileged mounts safe in
the presence of EVM and IMA xattrs which the last commit in this
series reflects. While technically it is a revert the comments it adds
are important for people not getting confused in the future. Clearing
up that confusion allows us to seriously work on unprivileged mounts
of fuse in the next development cycle.
The rest of the fixes in this set are in the intersection of user
namespaces, ptrace, and exec. I started with the first fix which
started a feedback cycle of finding additional issues during review
and fixing them. Culiminating in a fix for a bug that has been present
since at least Linux v1.0.
Potentially these fixes were candidates for being merged during the rc
cycle, and are certainly backport candidates but enough little things
turned up during review and testing that I decided they should be
handled as part of the normal development process just to be certain
there were not any great surprises when it came time to backport some
of these fixes"

ptrace: Don't allow accessing an undumpable mm
ptrace: Capture the ptracer's creds not PT_PTRACE_CAP
mm: Add a user_ns owner to mm_struct and fix ptrace permission checks
It is the reasonable expectation that if an executable file is not
readable there will be no way for a user without special privileges to
read the file. This is enforced in ptrace_attach but if ptrace
is already attached before exec there is no enforcement for read-only
executables.
As the only way to read such an mm is through access_process_vm
spin a variant called ptrace_access_vm that will fail if the
target process is not being ptraced by the current process, or
the current process did not have sufficient privileges when ptracing
began to read the target processes mm.
In the ptrace implementations replace access_process_vm by
ptrace_access_vm. There remain several ptrace sites that still use
access_process_vm as they are reading the target executables
instructions (for kernel consumption) or register stacks. As such it
does not appear necessary to add a permission check to those calls.
This bug has always existed in Linux.

together with cache maintenance and attempting to run it. However, the

The idea borrowed from Peter's patch from patchset on speculative page
faults[1]:
Instead of passing around the endless list of function arguments,
replace the lot with a single structure so we can change context without
endless function signature changes.
The changes are mostly mechanical with exception of faultaround code:
filemap_map_pages() got reworked a bit.
This patch is preparation for the next one.

The do_brk() and vm_brk() return value was "unsigned long" and returned
the starting address on success, and an error value on failure. The
reasons are entirely historical, and go back to it basically behaving
like the mmap() interface does.
However, nobody actually wanted that interface, and it causes totally
pointless IS_ERR_VALUE() confusion.
What every single caller actually wants is just the simpler integer
return of zero for success and negative error number on failure.
So just convert to that much clearer and more common calling convention,
and get rid of all the IS_ERR_VALUE() uses wrt vm_brk().

Pull mm gup cleanup from Ingo Molnar:
"This removes the ugly get-user-pages API hack, now that all upstream
code has been migrated to it"

* 'mm-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
mm/gup: Remove the macro overload API migration helpers from the get_user*() APIs
The pkeys changes brought about a truly hideous set of macros in:
cde70140fe ("mm/gup: Overload get_user_pages() functions")
... which macros are (ab-)using the fact that __VA_ARGS__ can be used
to shift parameter positions in macro arguments without breaking the
build and so can be used to call separate C functions depending on
the number of arguments of the macro.
This allowed easy migration of these 3 GUP APIs, as both these variants
worked at the C level:
old:
ret = get_user_pages(current, current->mm, address, 1, 1, 0, &page, NULL);
new:
ret = get_user_pages(address, 1, 1, 0, &page, NULL);
... while we also generated a (functionally harmless but noticeable) build
time warning if the old API was used. As there are over 300 uses of these
APIs, this trick eased the migration of the API and avoided excessive
migration pain in linux-next.
Now, with its work done, get rid of all of that complication and ugliness:
3 files changed, 16 insertions(+), 140 deletions(-)
... where the linecount of the migration hack was further inflated by the
fact that there are NOMMU variants of these GUP APIs as well.
Much of the conversion was done in linux-next over the past couple of months,
and Linus recently removed all remaining old API uses from the upstream tree
in the following upstrea commit:
cb107161df ("Convert straggling drivers to new six-argument get_user_pages()")
There was one more old-API usage in mm/gup.c, in the CONFIG_HAVE_GENERIC_RCU_GUP
code path that ARM, ARM64 and PowerPC uses.
After this commit any old API usage will break the build.

PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time
ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page
cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE.
This promise never materialized. And unlikely will.
We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to
PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether
PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case,
especially on the border between fs and mm.
Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much
breakage to be doable.
Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are
not.
The changes are pretty straight-forward:
- <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;
- <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;
- PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN};
- page_cache_get() -> get_page();
- page_cache_release() -> put_page();
This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using
script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files.
I've called spatch for them manually.
The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to
PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later.
There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll
fix them manually in a separate patch. Comments and documentation also
will be addressed with the separate patch.

Pull x86 protection key support from Ingo Molnar:
"This tree adds support for a new memory protection hardware feature
that is available in upcoming Intel CPUs: 'protection keys' (pkeys).
There's a background article at LWN.net:
https://lwn.net/Articles/643797/
The gist is that protection keys allow the encoding of
user-controllable permission masks in the pte. So instead of having a
fixed protection mask in the pte (which needs a system call to change
and works on a per page basis), the user can map a (handful of)
protection mask variants and can change the masks runtime relatively
cheaply, without having to change every single page in the affected
virtual memory range.
This allows the dynamic switching of the protection bits of large
amounts of virtual memory, via user-space instructions. It also
allows more precise control of MMU permission bits: for example the
executable bit is separate from the read bit (see more about that
below).
This tree adds the MM infrastructure and low level x86 glue needed for
that, plus it adds a high level API to make use of protection keys -
if a user-space application calls:
mmap(..., PROT_EXEC);
or
mprotect(ptr, sz, PROT_EXEC);
(note PROT_EXEC-only, without PROT_READ/WRITE), the kernel will notice
this special case, and will set a special protection key on this
memory range. It also sets the appropriate bits in the Protection
Keys User Rights (PKRU) register so that the memory becomes unreadable
and unwritable.
So using protection keys the kernel is able to implement 'true'
PROT_EXEC on x86 CPUs: without protection keys PROT_EXEC implies
PROT_READ as well. Unreadable executable mappings have security
advantages: they cannot be read via information leaks to figure out
ASLR details, nor can they be scanned for ROP gadgets - and they
cannot be used by exploits for data purposes either.
We know about no user-space code that relies on pure PROT_EXEC
mappings today, but binary loaders could start making use of this new
feature to map binaries and libraries in a more secure fashion.
There is other pending pkeys work that offers more high level system
call APIs to manage protection keys - but those are not part of this
pull request.
Right now there's a Kconfig that controls this feature
(CONFIG_X86_INTEL_MEMORY_PROTECTION_KEYS) that is default enabled
(like most x86 CPU feature enablement code that has no runtime
overhead), but it's not user-configurable at the moment. If there's
any serious problem with this then we can make it configurable and/or
flip the default"

The concept here was a suggestion from Ingo. The implementation
horrors are all mine.
This allows get_user_pages(), get_user_pages_unlocked(), and
get_user_pages_locked() to be called with or without the
leading tsk/mm arguments. We will give a compile-time warning
about the old style being __deprecated and we will also
WARN_ON() if the non-remote version is used for a remote-style
access.
Doing this, folks will get nice warnings and will not break the
build. This should be nice for -next and will hopefully let
developers fix up their own code instead of maintainers needing
to do it at merge time.
The way we do this is hideous. It uses the __VA_ARGS__ macro
functionality to call different functions based on the number
of arguments passed to the macro.
There's an additional hack to ensure that our EXPORT_SYMBOL()
of the deprecated symbols doesn't trigger a warning.
We should be able to remove this mess as soon as -rc1 hits in
the release after this is merged.

Mark those kmem allocations that are known to be easily triggered from
userspace as __GFP_ACCOUNT/SLAB_ACCOUNT, which makes them accounted to
memcg. For the list, see below:
- threadinfo
- task_struct
- task_delay_info
- pid
- cred
- mm_struct
- vm_area_struct and vm_region (nommu)
- anon_vma and anon_vma_chain
- signal_struct
- sighand_struct
- fs_struct
- files_struct
- fdtable and fdtable->full_fds_bits
- dentry and external_name
- inode for all filesystems. This is the most tedious part, because
most filesystems overwrite the alloc_inode method.
The list is far from complete, so feel free to add more objects.
Nevertheless, it should be close to "account everything" approach and
keep most workloads within bounds. Malevolent users will be able to
breach the limit, but this was possible even with the former "account
everything" approach (simply because it did not account everything in
fact).

(2) ppc and mips, which HAVE_ARCH_BUG_ON, do not rely on branch
predictions as it seems to be pointless[1] and thus callers should not
be trying to push an optimization in the first place.
(3) For CONFIG_BUG and !HAVE_ARCH_BUG_ON cases, BUG_ON() contains an
unlikely compiler flag already.
Hence, we can drop unlikely behind BUG_ON().

Add the additional "vm_flags_t vm_flags" argument to do_mmap_pgoff(),
rename it to do_mmap(), and re-introduce do_mmap_pgoff() as a simple
wrapper on top of do_mmap(). Perhaps we should update the callers of
do_mmap_pgoff() and kill it later.
This way mpx_mmap() can simply call do_mmap(vm_flags => VM_MPX) and do not
play with vm internals.
After this change mmap_region() has a single user outside of mmap.c,
arch/tile/mm/elf.c:arch_setup_additional_pages(). It would be nice to
change arch/tile/ and unexport mmap_region().

Today proc and sysfs do not contain any executable files. Several
applications today mount proc or sysfs without noexec and nosuid and
then depend on there being no exectuables files on proc or sysfs.
Having any executable files show on proc or sysfs would cause
a user space visible regression, and most likely security problems.
Therefore commit to never allowing executables on proc and sysfs by
adding a new flag to mark them as filesystems without executables and
enforce that flag.
Test the flag where MNT_NOEXEC is tested today, so that the only user
visible effect will be that exectuables will be treated as if the
execute bit is cleared.
The filesystems proc and sysfs do not currently incoporate any
executable files so this does not result in any user visible effects.
This makes it unnecessary to vet changes to proc and sysfs tightly for
adding exectuable files or changes to chattr that would modify
existing files, as no matter what the individual file say they will
not be treated as exectuable files by the vfs.
Not having to vet changes to closely is important as without this we
are only one proc_create call (or another goof up in the
implementation of notify_change) from having problematic executables
on proc. Those mistakes are all too easy to make and would create
a situation where there are security issues or the assumptions of
some program having to be broken (and cause userspace regressions).

Merge tag 'module_init-alternate_initcall-v4.1-rc8' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulg/linux
Pull module_init replacement part two from Paul Gortmaker:
"Replace module_init with appropriate alternate initcall in non
modules.
This series converts non-modular code that is using the module_init()
call to hook itself into the system to instead use one of our
alternate priority initcalls.
Unlike the previous series that used device_initcall and hence was a
runtime no-op, these commits change to one of the alternate initcalls,
because (a) we have them and (b) it seems like the right thing to do.
For example, it would seem logical to use arch_initcall for arch
specific setup code and fs_initcall for filesystem setup code.
This does mean however, that changes in the init ordering will be
taking place, and so there is a small risk that some kind of implicit
init ordering issue may lie uncovered. But I think it is still better
to give these ones sensible priorities than to just assign them all to
device_initcall in order to exactly preserve the old ordering.
Thad said, we have already made similar changes in core kernel code in
commit c96d6660dc ("kernel: audit/fix non-modular users of
module_init in core code") without any regressions reported, so this
type of change isn't without precedent. It has also got the same
local testing and linux-next coverage as all the other pull requests
that I'm sending for this merge window have got.
Once again, there is an unused module_exit function removal that shows
up as an outlier upon casual inspection of the diffstat"

Compiling some arm/m68k configs with "# CONFIG_MMU is not set" reveals
two more instances of module_init being used for code that can't
possibly be modular, as CONFIG_MMU is either on or off.
We replace them with subsys_initcall as per what was done in other
mmu-enabled code.
Note that direct use of __initcall is discouraged, vs. one of the
priority categorized subgroups. As __initcall gets mapped onto
device_initcall, our use of subsys_initcall (which makes sense for these
files) will thus change this registration from level 6-device to level
4-subsys (i.e. slightly earlier).
One might think that core_initcall (l2) or postcore_initcall (l3) would
be more appropriate for anything in mm/ but if we look at the actual init
functions themselves, we see they are just sysctl setup stuff, and
hence the choice of subsys_initcall (l4) seems reasonable. At the same
time it minimizes the risk of changing the priority too drastically all
at once. We can adjust further in the future.
Also, a couple instances of missing ";" at EOL are fixed.

Unable to allocate RAM for process text/data, errno 12 SEGV
This problem happens because we allocate ordered page through
__get_free_pages() in do_mmap_private() in some cases and we try to free
individual pages rather than ordered page in free_page_series(). In
this case, freeing pages whose refcount is not 0 won't be freed to the
page allocator so memory leak happens.
To fix the problem, this patch changes __get_free_pages() to
alloc_pages_exact() since alloc_pages_exact() returns
physically-contiguous pages but each pages are refcounted.
Fixes: dbc8358c72 ("mm/nommu: use alloc_pages_exact() rather than its own implementation").

I noticed that "allowed" can easily overflow by falling below 0, because
(total_vm / 32) can be larger than "allowed". The problem occurs in
OVERCOMMIT_NONE mode.
In this case, a huge allocation can success and overcommit the system
(despite OVERCOMMIT_NONE mode). All subsequent allocations will fall
(system-wide), so system become unusable.
The problem was masked out by commit c9b1d0981f
("mm: limit growth of 3% hardcoded other user reserve"),
but it's easy to reproduce it on older kernels:
1) set overcommit_memory sysctl to 2
2) mmap() large file multiple times (with VM_SHARED flag)
3) try to malloc() large amount of memory
It also can be reproduced on newer kernels, but miss-configured
sysctl_user_reserve_kbytes is required.
Fix this issue by switching to signed arithmetic here.

FAULT_FOLL_ALLOW_RETRY allows the page fault to drop the mmap_sem for
reading to reduce the mmap_sem contention (for writing), like while
waiting for I/O completion. The problem is that right now practically no
get_user_pages call uses FAULT_FOLL_ALLOW_RETRY, so we're not leveraging
that nifty feature.
Andres fixed it for the KVM page fault. However get_user_pages_fast
remains uncovered, and 99% of other get_user_pages aren't using it either
(the only exception being FOLL_NOWAIT in KVM which is really nonblocking
and in fact it doesn't even release the mmap_sem).
So this patchsets extends the optimization Andres did in the KVM page
fault to the whole kernel. It makes most important places (including
gup_fast) to use FAULT_FOLL_ALLOW_RETRY to reduce the mmap_sem hold times
during I/O.
The only few places that remains uncovered are drivers like v4l and other
exceptions that tends to work on their own memory and they're not working
on random user memory (for example like O_DIRECT that uses gup_fast and is
fully covered by this patch).
A follow up patch should probably also add a printk_once warning to
get_user_pages that should go obsolete and be phased out eventually. The
"vmas" parameter of get_user_pages makes it fundamentally incompatible
with FAULT_FOLL_ALLOW_RETRY (vmas array becomes meaningless the moment the
mmap_sem is released).
While this is just an optimization, this becomes an absolute requirement
for the userfaultfd feature http://lwn.net/Articles/615086/ .
The userfaultfd allows to block the page fault, and in order to do so I
need to drop the mmap_sem first. So this patch also ensures that all
memory where userfaultfd could be registered by KVM, the very first fault
(no matter if it is a regular page fault, or a get_user_pages) always has
FAULT_FOLL_ALLOW_RETRY set. Then the userfaultfd blocks and it is waken
only when the pagetable is already mapped. The second fault attempt after
the wakeup doesn't need FAULT_FOLL_ALLOW_RETRY, so it's ok to retry
without it.
This patch (of 5):
We can leverage the VM_FAULT_RETRY functionality in the page fault paths
better by using either get_user_pages_locked or get_user_pages_unlocked.
The former allows conversion of get_user_pages invocations that will have
to pass a "&locked" parameter to know if the mmap_sem was dropped during
the call. Example from:
down_read(&mm->mmap_sem);
do_something()
get_user_pages(tsk, mm, ..., pages, NULL);
up_read(&mm->mmap_sem);
to:
int locked = 1;
down_read(&mm->mmap_sem);
do_something()
get_user_pages_locked(tsk, mm, ..., pages, &locked);
if (locked)
up_read(&mm->mmap_sem);
The latter is suitable only as a drop in replacement of the form:
down_read(&mm->mmap_sem);
get_user_pages(tsk, mm, ..., pages, NULL);
up_read(&mm->mmap_sem);
into:
get_user_pages_unlocked(tsk, mm, ..., pages);
Where tsk, mm, the intermediate "..." paramters and "pages" can be any
value as before. Just the last parameter of get_user_pages (vmas) must be
NULL for get_user_pages_locked|unlocked to be usable (the latter original
form wouldn't have been safe anyway if vmas wasn't null, for the former we
just make it explicit by dropping the parameter).
If vmas is not NULL these two methods cannot be used.

remap_file_pages(2) was invented to be able efficiently map parts of
huge file into limited 32-bit virtual address space such as in database
workloads.
Nonlinear mappings are pain to support and it seems there's no
legitimate use-cases nowadays since 64-bit systems are widely available.
Let's drop it and get rid of all these special-cased code.
The patch replaces the syscall with emulation which creates new VMA on
each remap_file_pages(), unless they it can be merged with an adjacent
one.
I didn't find *any* real code that uses remap_file_pages(2) to test
emulation impact on. I've checked Debian code search and source of all
packages in ALT Linux. No real users: libc wrappers, mentions in
strace, gdb, valgrind and this kind of stuff.
There are few basic tests in LTP for the syscall. They work just fine
with emulation.
To test performance impact, I've written small test case which
demonstrate pretty much worst case scenario: map 4G shmfs file, write to
begin of every page pgoff of the page, remap pages in reverse order,
read every page.
The test creates 1 million of VMAs if emulation is in use, so I had to
set vm.max_map_count to 1100000 to avoid -ENOMEM.
Before: 23.3 ( +- 4.31% ) seconds
After: 43.9 ( +- 0.85% ) seconds
Slowdown: 1.88x
I believe we can live with that.
Test case:
#define _GNU_SOURCE
#include <assert.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/mman.h>
#define MB (1024UL * 1024)
#define SIZE (4096 * MB)

Introduce a new nommu-only file operation to provide this information to

structure allows to remove lots of backing_dev_info instance that aren't

This default is only useful for ia64. arm64, ppc, s390, sh, tile, 64-bit
UML, and x86_32 have their own code just to disable it. arm, 32-bit UML,
and x86_64 have gate areas, but they have their own implementations.
This gets rid of the default and moves the code into ia64.
This should save some code on architectures without a gate area: it's now
possible to inline the gate_area functions in the default case.

This patch is a continuation of efforts trying to optimize find_vma(),
avoiding potentially expensive rbtree walks to locate a vma upon faults.
The original approach (https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/11/1/410), where the
largest vma was also cached, ended up being too specific and random,
thus further comparison with other approaches were needed. There are
two things to consider when dealing with this, the cache hit rate and
the latency of find_vma(). Improving the hit-rate does not necessarily
translate in finding the vma any faster, as the overhead of any fancy
caching schemes can be too high to consider.
We currently cache the last used vma for the whole address space, which
provides a nice optimization, reducing the total cycles in find_vma() by
up to 250%, for workloads with good locality. On the other hand, this
simple scheme is pretty much useless for workloads with poor locality.
Analyzing ebizzy runs shows that, no matter how many threads are
running, the mmap_cache hit rate is less than 2%, and in many situations
below 1%.
The proposed approach is to replace this scheme with a small per-thread
cache, maximizing hit rates at a very low maintenance cost.
Invalidations are performed by simply bumping up a 32-bit sequence
number. The only expensive operation is in the rare case of a seq
number overflow, where all caches that share the same address space are
flushed. Upon a miss, the proposed replacement policy is based on the
page number that contains the virtual address in question. Concretely,
the following results are seen on an 80 core, 8 socket x86-64 box:
1) System bootup: Most programs are single threaded, so the per-thread
scheme does improve ~50% hit rate by just adding a few more slots to
the cache.
+----------------+----------+------------------+
| caching scheme | hit-rate | cycles (billion) |
+----------------+----------+------------------+
| baseline | 50.61% | 19.90 |
| patched | 73.45% | 13.58 |
+----------------+----------+------------------+
2) Kernel build: This one is already pretty good with the current
approach as we're dealing with good locality.
+----------------+----------+------------------+
| caching scheme | hit-rate | cycles (billion) |
+----------------+----------+------------------+
| baseline | 75.28% | 11.03 |
| patched | 88.09% | 9.31 |
+----------------+----------+------------------+
3) Oracle 11g Data Mining (4k pages): Similar to the kernel build workload.
+----------------+----------+------------------+
| caching scheme | hit-rate | cycles (billion) |
+----------------+----------+------------------+
| baseline | 70.66% | 17.14 |
| patched | 91.15% | 12.57 |
+----------------+----------+------------------+
4) Ebizzy: There's a fair amount of variation from run to run, but this
approach always shows nearly perfect hit rates, while baseline is just
about non-existent. The amounts of cycles can fluctuate between
anywhere from ~60 to ~116 for the baseline scheme, but this approach
reduces it considerably. For instance, with 80 threads:
+----------------+----------+------------------+
| caching scheme | hit-rate | cycles (billion) |
+----------------+----------+------------------+
| baseline | 1.06% | 91.54 |
| patched | 99.97% | 14.18 |

filemap_map_pages() is generic implementation of ->map_pages() for
filesystems who uses page cache.
It should be safe to use filemap_map_pages() for ->map_pages() if
filesystem use filemap_fault() for ->fault().

As Trond pointed out, you can currently deadlock yourself by setting a
file-private lock on a file that requires mandatory locking and then
trying to do I/O on it.
Avoid this problem by plumbing some knowledge of file-private locks into
the mandatory locking code. In order to do this, we must pass down
information about the struct file that's being used to
locks_verify_locked.

Some applications that run on HPC clusters are designed around the
availability of RAM and the overcommit ratio is fine tuned to get the
maximum usage of memory without swapping. With growing memory, the
1%-of-all-RAM grain provided by overcommit_ratio has become too coarse
for these workload (on a 2TB machine it represents no less than 20GB).
This patch adds the new overcommit_kbytes sysctl variable that allow a
much finer grain.
