Device drivers can use the migrate_vma family of functions to migrate
existing private anonymous mappings to device private pages. These pages
are backed by memory on the device with drivers being responsible for
copying data to and from device memory.
Device private pages are freed via the pgmap->page_free() callback when
they are unmapped and their refcount drops to zero. Alternatively they
may be freed indirectly via migration back to CPU memory in response to a
pgmap->migrate_to_ram() callback called whenever the CPU accesses an
address mapped to a device private page.
In other words drivers cannot control the lifetime of data allocated on
the devices and must wait until these pages are freed from userspace.
This causes issues when memory needs to reclaimed on the device, either
because the device is going away due to a ->release() callback or because
another user needs to use the memory.
Drivers could use the existing migrate_vma functions to migrate data off
the device. However this would require them to track the mappings of each
page which is both complicated and not always possible. Instead drivers
need to be able to migrate device pages directly so they can free up
device memory.
To allow that this patch introduces the migrate_device family of functions
which are functionally similar to migrate_vma but which skips the initial
lookup based on mapping.

migrate_device_coherent_page() reuses the existing migrate_vma family of
functions to migrate a specific page without providing a valid mapping or
vma. This looks a bit odd because it means we are calling migrate_vma_*()
without setting a valid vma, however it was considered acceptable at the
time because the details were internal to migrate_device.c and there was
only a single user.
One of the reasons the details could be kept internal was that this was
strictly for migrating device coherent memory. Such memory can be copied
directly by the CPU without intervention from a driver. However this
isn't true for device private memory, and a future change requires similar
functionality for device private memory. So refactor the code into
something more sensible for migrating device memory without a vma.

Patch series "Fix several device private page reference counting issues",
v2
This series aims to fix a number of page reference counting issues in
drivers dealing with device private ZONE_DEVICE pages. These result in
use-after-free type bugs, either from accessing a struct page which no
longer exists because it has been removed or accessing fields within the
struct page which are no longer valid because the page has been freed.
During normal usage it is unlikely these will cause any problems. However
without these fixes it is possible to crash the kernel from userspace.
These crashes can be triggered either by unloading the kernel module or
unbinding the device from the driver prior to a userspace task exiting.
In modules such as Nouveau it is also possible to trigger some of these
issues by explicitly closing the device file-descriptor prior to the task
exiting and then accessing device private memory.
This involves some minor changes to both PowerPC and AMD GPU code.
Unfortunately I lack hardware to test either of those so any help there
would be appreciated. The changes mimic what is done in for both Nouveau
and hmm-tests though so I doubt they will cause problems.
This patch (of 8):
When the CPU tries to access a device private page the migrate_to_ram()
callback associated with the pgmap for the page is called. However no
reference is taken on the faulting page. Therefore a concurrent migration
of the device private page can free the page and possibly the underlying
pgmap. This results in a race which can crash the kernel due to the
migrate_to_ram() function pointer becoming invalid. It also means drivers
can't reliably read the zone_device_data field because the page may have
been freed with memunmap_pages().
Close the race by getting a reference on the page while holding the ptl to
ensure it has not been freed. Unfortunately the elevated reference count
will cause the migration required to handle the fault to fail. To avoid
this failure pass the faulting page into the migrate_vma functions so that
if an elevated reference count is found it can be checked to see if it's
expected or not.

When page migration happens, we always ignore the young/dirty bit settings
in the old pgtable, and marking the page as old in the new page table
using either pte_mkold() or pmd_mkold(), and keeping the pte clean.
That's fine from functional-wise, but that's not friendly to page reclaim
because the moving page can be actively accessed within the procedure.
Not to mention hardware setting the young bit can bring quite some
overhead on some systems, e.g. x86_64 needs a few hundreds nanoseconds to
set the bit. The same slowdown problem to dirty bits when the memory is
first written after page migration happened.
Actually we can easily remember the A/D bit configuration and recover the
information after the page is migrated. To achieve it, define a new set
of bits in the migration swap offset field to cache the A/D bits for old
pte. Then when removing/recovering the migration entry, we can recover
the A/D bits even if the page changed.
One thing to mention is that here we used max_swapfile_size() to detect
how many swp offset bits we have, and we'll only enable this feature if we
know the swp offset is big enough to store both the PFN value and the A/D
bits. Otherwise the A/D bits are dropped like before.

migrate_vma_setup() has a fast path in migrate_vma_collect_pmd() that
installs migration entries directly if it can lock the migrating page.
When removing a dirty pte the dirty bit is supposed to be carried over to
the underlying page to prevent it being lost.
Currently migrate_vma_*() can only be used for private anonymous mappings.
That means loss of the dirty bit usually doesn't result in data loss
because these pages are typically not file-backed. However pages may be
backed by swap storage which can result in data loss if an attempt is made
to migrate a dirty page that doesn't yet have the PageDirty flag set.
In this case migration will fail due to unexpected references but the
dirty pte bit will be lost. If the page is subsequently reclaimed data
won't be written back to swap storage as it is considered uptodate,
resulting in data loss if the page is subsequently accessed.
Prevent this by copying the dirty bit to the page when removing the pte to
match what try_to_migrate_one() does.

When clearing a PTE the TLB should be flushed whilst still holding the PTL
to avoid a potential race with madvise/munmap/etc. For example consider
the following sequence:
CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
migrate_vma_collect_pmd()
pte_unmap_unlock()
madvise(MADV_DONTNEED)
-> zap_pte_range()
pte_offset_map_lock()
[ PTE not present, TLB not flushed ]
pte_unmap_unlock()
[ page is still accessible via stale TLB ]
flush_tlb_range()
In this case the page may still be accessed via the stale TLB entry after
madvise returns. Fix this by flushing the TLB while holding the PTL.

Currently any attempts to pin a device coherent page will fail. This is
because device coherent pages need to be managed by a device driver, and
pinning them would prevent a driver from migrating them off the device.
However this is no reason to fail pinning of these pages. These are
coherent and accessible from the CPU so can be migrated just like pinning
ZONE_MOVABLE pages. So instead of failing all attempts to pin them first
try migrating them out of ZONE_DEVICE.

Let's mark exclusively mapped anonymous pages with PG_anon_exclusive as
exclusive, and use that information to make GUP pins reliable and stay
consistent with the page mapped into the page table even if the page table
entry gets write-protected.
With that information at hand, we can extend our COW logic to always reuse
anonymous pages that are exclusive. For anonymous pages that might be
shared, the existing logic applies.
As already documented, PG_anon_exclusive is usually only expressive in
combination with a page table entry. Especially PTE vs. PMD-mapped
anonymous pages require more thought, some examples: due to mremap() we
can easily have a single compound page PTE-mapped into multiple page
tables exclusively in a single process -- multiple page table locks apply.
Further, due to MADV_WIPEONFORK we might not necessarily write-protect
all PTEs, and only some subpages might be pinned. Long story short: once
PTE-mapped, we have to track information about exclusivity per sub-page,
but until then, we can just track it for the compound page in the head
page and not having to update a whole bunch of subpages all of the time
for a simple PMD mapping of a THP.
For simplicity, this commit mostly talks about "anonymous pages", while
it's for THP actually "the part of an anonymous folio referenced via a
page table entry".
To not spill PG_anon_exclusive code all over the mm code-base, we let the
anon rmap code to handle all PG_anon_exclusive logic it can easily handle.
If a writable, present page table entry points at an anonymous (sub)page,
that (sub)page must be PG_anon_exclusive. If GUP wants to take a reliably
pin (FOLL_PIN) on an anonymous page references via a present page table
entry, it must only pin if PG_anon_exclusive is set for the mapped
(sub)page.
This commit doesn't adjust GUP, so this is only implicitly handled for
FOLL_WRITE, follow-up commits will teach GUP to also respect it for
FOLL_PIN without FOLL_WRITE, to make all GUP pins of anonymous pages fully
reliable.
Whenever an anonymous page is to be shared (fork(), KSM), or when
temporarily unmapping an anonymous page (swap, migration), the relevant
PG_anon_exclusive bit has to be cleared to mark the anonymous page
possibly shared. Clearing will fail if there are GUP pins on the page:
* For fork(), this means having to copy the page and not being able to
share it. fork() protects against concurrent GUP using the PT lock and
the src_mm->write_protect_seq.
* For KSM, this means sharing will fail. For swap this means, unmapping
will fail, For migration this means, migration will fail early. All
three cases protect against concurrent GUP using the PT lock and a
proper clear/invalidate+flush of the relevant page table entry.
This fixes memory corruptions reported for FOLL_PIN | FOLL_WRITE, when a
pinned page gets mapped R/O and the successive write fault ends up
replacing the page instead of reusing it. It improves the situation for
O_DIRECT/vmsplice/... that still use FOLL_GET instead of FOLL_PIN, if
fork() is *not* involved, however swapout and fork() are still
problematic. Properly using FOLL_PIN instead of FOLL_GET for these GUP
users will fix the issue for them.
I. Details about basic handling
I.1. Fresh anonymous pages
page_add_new_anon_rmap() and hugepage_add_new_anon_rmap() will mark the
given page exclusive via __page_set_anon_rmap(exclusive=1). As that is
the mechanism fresh anonymous pages come into life (besides migration code
where we copy the page->mapping), all fresh anonymous pages will start out
as exclusive.
I.2. COW reuse handling of anonymous pages
When a COW handler stumbles over a (sub)page that's marked exclusive, it
simply reuses it. Otherwise, the handler tries harder under page lock to
detect if the (sub)page is exclusive and can be reused. If exclusive,
page_move_anon_rmap() will mark the given (sub)page exclusive.
Note that hugetlb code does not yet check for PageAnonExclusive(), as it
still uses the old COW logic that is prone to the COW security issue
because hugetlb code cannot really tolerate unnecessary/wrong COW as huge
pages are a scarce resource.
I.3. Migration handling
try_to_migrate() has to try marking an exclusive anonymous page shared via
page_try_share_anon_rmap(). If it fails because there are GUP pins on the
page, unmap fails. migrate_vma_collect_pmd() and
__split_huge_pmd_locked() are handled similarly.
Writable migration entries implicitly point at shared anonymous pages.
For readable migration entries that information is stored via a new
"readable-exclusive" migration entry, specific to anonymous pages.
When restoring a migration entry in remove_migration_pte(), information
about exlusivity is detected via the migration entry type, and
RMAP_EXCLUSIVE is set accordingly for
page_add_anon_rmap()/hugepage_add_anon_rmap() to restore that information.
I.4. Swapout handling
try_to_unmap() has to try marking the mapped page possibly shared via
page_try_share_anon_rmap(). If it fails because there are GUP pins on the
page, unmap fails. For now, information about exclusivity is lost. In
the future, we might want to remember that information in the swap entry
in some cases, however, it requires more thought, care, and a way to store
that information in swap entries.
I.5. Swapin handling
do_swap_page() will never stumble over exclusive anonymous pages in the
swap cache, as try_to_migrate() prohibits that. do_swap_page() always has
to detect manually if an anonymous page is exclusive and has to set
RMAP_EXCLUSIVE for page_add_anon_rmap() accordingly.
I.6. THP handling
__split_huge_pmd_locked() has to move the information about exclusivity
from the PMD to the PTEs.
a) In case we have a readable-exclusive PMD migration entry, simply
insert readable-exclusive PTE migration entries.
b) In case we have a present PMD entry and we don't want to freeze
("convert to migration entries"), simply forward PG_anon_exclusive to
all sub-pages, no need to temporarily clear the bit.
c) In case we have a present PMD entry and want to freeze, handle it
similar to try_to_migrate(): try marking the page shared first. In
case we fail, we ignore the "freeze" instruction and simply split
ordinarily. try_to_migrate() will properly fail because the THP is
still mapped via PTEs.
When splitting a compound anonymous folio (THP), the information about
exclusivity is implicitly handled via the migration entries: no need to
replicate PG_anon_exclusive manually.
I.7. fork() handling fork() handling is relatively easy, because
PG_anon_exclusive is only expressive for some page table entry types.
a) Present anonymous pages
page_try_dup_anon_rmap() will mark the given subpage shared -- which will
fail if the page is pinned. If it failed, we have to copy (or PTE-map a
PMD to handle it on the PTE level).
Note that device exclusive entries are just a pointer at a PageAnon()
page. fork() will first convert a device exclusive entry to a present
page table and handle it just like present anonymous pages.
b) Device private entry
Device private entries point at PageAnon() pages that cannot be mapped
directly and, therefore, cannot get pinned.
page_try_dup_anon_rmap() will mark the given subpage shared, which cannot
fail because they cannot get pinned.
c) HW poison entries
PG_anon_exclusive will remain untouched and is stale -- the page table
entry is just a placeholder after all.
d) Migration entries
Writable and readable-exclusive entries are converted to readable entries:
possibly shared.
I.8. mprotect() handling
mprotect() only has to properly handle the new readable-exclusive
migration entry:
When write-protecting a migration entry that points at an anonymous page,
remember the information about exclusivity via the "readable-exclusive"
migration entry type.
II. Migration and GUP-fast
Whenever replacing a present page table entry that maps an exclusive
anonymous page by a migration entry, we have to mark the page possibly
shared and synchronize against GUP-fast by a proper clear/invalidate+flush
to make the following scenario impossible:
1. try_to_migrate() places a migration entry after checking for GUP pins
and marks the page possibly shared.
2. GUP-fast pins the page due to lack of synchronization
3. fork() converts the "writable/readable-exclusive" migration entry into a
readable migration entry
4. Migration fails due to the GUP pin (failing to freeze the refcount)
5. Migration entries are restored. PG_anon_exclusive is lost
-> We have a pinned page that is not marked exclusive anymore.
Note that we move information about exclusivity from the page to the
migration entry as it otherwise highly overcomplicates fork() and
PTE-mapping a THP.
III. Swapout and GUP-fast
Whenever replacing a present page table entry that maps an exclusive
anonymous page by a swap entry, we have to mark the page possibly shared
and synchronize against GUP-fast by a proper clear/invalidate+flush to
make the following scenario impossible:
1. try_to_unmap() places a swap entry after checking for GUP pins and
clears exclusivity information on the page.
2. GUP-fast pins the page due to lack of synchronization.
-> We have a pinned page that is not marked exclusive anymore.
If we'd ever store information about exclusivity in the swap entry,
similar to migration handling, the same considerations as in II would
apply. This is future work.

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().

Convert the callers to pass a folio and the try_to_migrate_one()
worker to use a folio throughout. Fixes an assumption that a
folio must be <= PMD size.
