Patch series "mm: consolidate definitions of page table accessors", v2.
The low level page table accessors (pXY_index(), pXY_offset()) are
duplicated across all architectures and sometimes more than once. For
instance, we have 31 definition of pgd_offset() for 25 supported
architectures.
Most of these definitions are actually identical and typically it boils
down to, e.g.
static inline unsigned long pmd_index(unsigned long address)
{
return (address >> PMD_SHIFT) & (PTRS_PER_PMD - 1);
}
static inline pmd_t *pmd_offset(pud_t *pud, unsigned long address)
{
return (pmd_t *)pud_page_vaddr(*pud) + pmd_index(address);
}
These definitions can be shared among 90% of the arches provided
XYZ_SHIFT, PTRS_PER_XYZ and xyz_page_vaddr() are defined.
For architectures that really need a custom version there is always
possibility to override the generic version with the usual ifdefs magic.
These patches introduce include/linux/pgtable.h that replaces
include/asm-generic/pgtable.h and add the definitions of the page table
accessors to the new header.
This patch (of 12):
The linux/mm.h header includes <asm/pgtable.h> to allow inlining of the
functions involving page table manipulations, e.g. pte_alloc() and
pmd_alloc(). So, there is no point to explicitly include <asm/pgtable.h>
in the files that include <linux/mm.h>.
The include statements in such cases are remove with a simple loop:
for f in $(git grep -l "include <linux/mm.h>") ; do
sed -i -e '/include <asm\/pgtable.h>/ d' $f
done

All of the pin_user_pages*() API calls will cause pages to be
dma-pinned. As such, they are all suitable for either DMA, RDMA, and/or
Direct IO.
The documentation should say so, but it was instead saying that three of
the API calls were only suitable for Direct IO. This was discovered
when a reviewer wondered why an API call that specifically recommended
against Case 2 (DMA/RDMA) was being used in a DMA situation [1].
Fix this by simply deleting those claims. The gup.c comments already
refer to the more extensive Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst,
which does have the correct guidance. So let's just write it once,
there.

Patch series "mm/gup: introduce pin_user_pages_locked(), use it in frame_vector.c", v2.
This adds yet one more pin_user_pages*() variant, and uses that to
convert mm/frame_vector.c.
With this, along with maybe 20 or 30 other recent patches in various
trees, we are close to having the relevant gup call sites
converted--with the notable exception of the bio/block layer.
This patch (of 2):
Introduce pin_user_pages_locked(), which is nearly identical to
get_user_pages_locked() except that it sets FOLL_PIN and rejects
FOLL_GET.
As with other pairs of get_user_pages*() and pin_user_pages() API calls,
it's prudent to assert that FOLL_PIN is *not* set in the
get_user_pages*() call, so add that as part of this.

API __get_user_pages_fast() renamed to get_user_pages_fast_only() to
align with pin_user_pages_fast_only().
As part of this we will get rid of write parameter. Instead caller will
pass FOLL_WRITE to get_user_pages_fast_only(). This will not change any
existing functionality of the API.
All the callers are changed to pass FOLL_WRITE.
Also introduce get_user_page_fast_only(), and use it in a few places
that hard-code nr_pages to 1.

ba841078cd ("mm/mempolicy: Allow lookup_node() to handle fatal signal")
has added a special casing for 0 return value because that was a possible
gup return value when interrupted by fatal signal. This has been fixed by
ae46d2aa6a ("mm/gup: Let __get_user_pages_locked() return -EINTR for
fatal signal") in the mean time so ba841078cd can be reverted.
This patch however doesn't go all the way to revert it because the check
for 0 is wrong and confusing here. Firstly it is inherently unsafe to
access the page when get_user_pages_locked returns 0 (aka no page
returned).
Fortunatelly this will not happen because get_user_pages_locked will not
return 0 when nr_pages > 0 unless FOLL_NOWAIT is specified which is not
the case here. Document this potential error code in gup code while we
are at it.

There were two nearly identical sets of code for gup_fast() style of
walking the page tables with interrupts disabled. This has lead to the
usual maintenance problems that arise from having duplicated code.
There is already a core internal routine in gup.c for gup_fast(), so just
enhance it very slightly: allow skipping the fall-back to "slow" (regular)
get_user_pages(), via the new FOLL_FAST_ONLY flag. Then, just call
internal_get_user_pages_fast() from __get_user_pages_fast(), and adjust
the API to match pre-existing API behavior.
There is a change in behavior from this refactoring: the nested form of
interrupt disabling is used in all gup_fast() variants now. That's
because there is only one place that interrupt disabling for page walking
is done, and so the safer form is required. This should, if anything,
eliminate possible (rare) bugs, because the non-nested form of enabling
interrupts was fragile at best.

Patch series "mm/gup, drm/i915: refactor gup_fast, convert to pin_user_pages()", v2.
In order to convert the drm/i915 driver from get_user_pages() to
pin_user_pages(), a FOLL_PIN equivalent of __get_user_pages_fast() was
required. That led to refactoring __get_user_pages_fast(), with the
following goals:
1) As above: provide a pin_user_pages*() routine for drm/i915 to call,
in place of __get_user_pages_fast(),
2) Get rid of the gup.c duplicate code for walking page tables with
interrupts disabled. This duplicate code is a minor maintenance
problem anyway.
3) Make it easy for an upcoming patch from Souptick, which aims to
convert __get_user_pages_fast() to use a gup_flags argument, instead
of a bool writeable arg. Also, if this series looks good, we can
ask Souptick to change the name as well, to whatever the consensus
is. My initial recommendation is: get_user_pages_fast_only(), to
match the new pin_user_pages_only().
This patch (of 4):
This is in order to avoid a forward declaration of
internal_get_user_pages_fast(), in the next patch.
This is code movement only--all generated code should be identical.

Doing a "get_user_pages()" on a copy-on-write page for reading can be
ambiguous: the page can be COW'ed at any time afterwards, and the
direction of a COW event isn't defined.
Yes, whoever writes to it will generally do the COW, but if the thread
that did the get_user_pages() unmapped the page before the write (and
that could happen due to memory pressure in addition to any outright
action), the writer could also just take over the old page instead.
End result: the get_user_pages() call might result in a page pointer
that is no longer associated with the original VM, and is associated
with - and controlled by - another VM having taken it over instead.
So when doing a get_user_pages() on a COW mapping, the only really safe
thing to do would be to break the COW when getting the page, even when
only getting it for reading.
At the same time, some users simply don't even care.
For example, the perf code wants to look up the page not because it
cares about the page, but because the code simply wants to look up the
physical address of the access for informational purposes, and doesn't
really care about races when a page might be unmapped and remapped
elsewhere.
This adds logic to force a COW event by setting FOLL_WRITE on any
copy-on-write mapping when FOLL_GET (or FOLL_PIN) is used to get a page
pointer as a result.
The current semantics end up being:
- __get_user_pages_fast(): no change. If you don't ask for a write,
you won't break COW. You'd better know what you're doing.
- get_user_pages_fast(): the fast-case "look it up in the page tables
without anything getting mmap_sem" now refuses to follow a read-only
page, since it might need COW breaking. Which happens in the slow
path - the fast path doesn't know if the memory might be COW or not.
- get_user_pages() (including the slow-path fallback for gup_fast()):
for a COW mapping, turn on FOLL_WRITE for FOLL_GET/FOLL_PIN, with
very similar semantics to FOLL_FORCE.
If it turns out that we want finer granularity (ie "only break COW when
it might actually matter" - things like the zero page are special and
don't need to be broken) we might need to push these semantics deeper
into the lookup fault path. So if people care enough, it's possible
that we might end up adding a new internal FOLL_BREAK_COW flag to go
with the internal FOLL_COW flag we already have for tracking "I had a
COW".
Alternatively, if it turns out that different callers might want to
explicitly control the forced COW break behavior, we might even want to
make such a flag visible to the users of get_user_pages() instead of
using the above default semantics.
But for now, this is mostly commentary on the issue (this commit message
being a lot bigger than the patch, and that patch in turn is almost all
comments), with that minimal "enable COW breaking early" logic using the
existing FOLL_WRITE behavior.
[ It might be worth noting that we've always had this ambiguity, and it
could arguably be seen as a user-space issue.
You only get private COW mappings that could break either way in
situations where user space is doing cooperative things (ie fork()
before an execve() etc), but it _is_ surprising and very subtle, and
fork() is supposed to give you independent address spaces.
So let's treat this as a kernel issue and make the semantics of
get_user_pages() easier to understand. Note that obviously a true
shared mapping will still get a page that can change under us, so this
does _not_ mean that get_user_pages() somehow returns any "stable"

This part was overlooked when reworking the gup code on multiple
retries.
When we get the 2nd+ retry, we'll be with TRIED flag set. Current code
will bail out on the 2nd retry because the !TRIED check will fail so the
retry logic will be skipped. What's worse is that, it will also return
zero which errornously hints the caller that the page is faulted in
while it's not.
The !TRIED flag check seems to not be needed even before the mutliple
retries change because if we get a VM_FAULT_RETRY, it must be the 1st
retry, and we should not have TRIED set for that.
Fix it by removing the !TRIED check, at the meantime check against fatal
signals properly before the page fault so we can still properly respond
to the user killing the process during retries.

EINTR is the usual error code which other killable interfaces return.
This is the case for the other fatal_signal_pending break out from the
same function. Make the code consistent.
ERESTARTSYS is also quite confusing because the signal is fatal and so
no restart will happen before returning to the userspace.

It's definitely incorrect to mark the lock as taken even if

This wass overlooked when we switched from down_read() to
down_read_killable() because down_read() won't fail while
down_read_killable() could.

The existing gup code does not react to the fatal signals in many code
paths. For example, in one retry path of gup we're still using
down_read() rather than down_read_killable(). Also, when doing page
faults we don't pass in FAULT_FLAG_KILLABLE as well, which means that
within the faulting process we'll wait in non-killable way as well. These
were spotted by Linus during the code review of some other patches.
Let's allow the gup code to react to fatal signals to improve the
responsiveness of threads when during gup and being killed.

Patch series "mm: Page fault enhancements", v6.
This series contains cleanups and enhancements to current page fault
logic. The whole idea comes from the discussion between Andrea and Linus
on the bug reported by syzbot here:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/11/2/833
Basically it does two things:
(a) Allows the page fault logic to be more interactive on not only
SIGKILL, but also the rest of userspace signals, and,
(b) Allows the page fault retry (VM_FAULT_RETRY) to happen for more
than once.
For (a): with the changes we should be able to react faster when page
faults are working in parallel with userspace signals like SIGSTOP and
SIGCONT (and more), and with that we can remove the buggy part in
userfaultfd and benefit the whole page fault mechanism on faster signal
processing to reach the userspace.
For (b), we should be able to allow the page fault handler to loop for
even more than twice. Some context: for now since we have
FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY we can allow to retry the page fault once with the
same interrupt context, however never more than twice. This can be not
only a potential cleanup to remove this assumption since AFAIU the code
itself doesn't really have this twice-only limitation (though that should
be a protective approach in the past), at the same time it'll greatly
simplify future works like userfaultfd write-protect where it's possible
to retry for more than twice (please have a look at [1] below for a
possible user that might require the page fault to be handled for a third
time; if we can remove the retry limitation we can simply drop that patch
and those complexity).
This patch (of 16):
There's plenty of places around __get_user_pages() that has a parameter
"nonblocking" which does not really mean that "it won't block" (because it
can really block) but instead it shows whether the mmap_sem is released by
up_read() during the page fault handling mostly when VM_FAULT_RETRY is
returned.
We have the correct naming in e.g. get_user_pages_locked() or
get_user_pages_remote() as "locked", however there're still many places
that are using the "nonblocking" as name.
Renaming the places to "locked" where proper to better suite the
functionality of the variable. While at it, fixing up some of the
comments accordingly.

FOLL_LONGTERM is a special case of FOLL_PIN. It suggests a pin which is
going to be given to hardware and can't move. It would truncate CMA
permanently and should be excluded.
In gup slow path, where
__gup_longterm_locked->check_and_migrate_cma_pages() handles
FOLL_LONGTERM, but in fast path, there lacks such a check, which means a
possible leak of CMA page to longterm pinned.
Place a check in try_grab_compound_head() in the fast path to fix the
leak, and if FOLL_LONGTERM happens on CMA, it will fall back to slow path
to migrate the page.
Some note about the check: Huge page's subpages have the same migrate type
due to either allocation from a free_list[] or alloc_contig_range() with
param MIGRATE_MOVABLE. So it is enough to check on a single subpage by
is_migrate_cma_page(subpage)

With the introduction of protected KVM guests on s390 there is now a
concept of inaccessible pages. These pages need to be made accessible
before the host can access them.
While cpu accesses will trigger a fault that can be resolved, I/O accesses
will just fail. We need to add a callback into architecture code for
places that will do I/O, namely when writeback is started or when a page
reference is taken.
This is not only to enable paging, file backing etc, it is also necessary
to protect the host against a malicious user space. For example a bad
QEMU could simply start direct I/O on such protected memory. We do not
want userspace to be able to trigger I/O errors and thus the logic is
"whenever somebody accesses that page (gup) or does I/O, make sure that
this page can be accessed". When the guest tries to access that page we
will wait in the page fault handler for writeback to have finished and for
the page_ref to be the expected value.
On s390x the function is not supposed to fail, so it is ok to use a
WARN_ON on failure. If we ever need some more finegrained handling we can
tackle this when we know the details.

Now that pages are "DMA-pinned" via pin_user_page*(), and unpinned via
unpin_user_pages*(), we need some visibility into whether all of this is
working correctly.
Add two new fields to /proc/vmstat:
nr_foll_pin_acquired
nr_foll_pin_released
These are documented in Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst. They
represent the number of pages (since boot time) that have been pinned
("nr_foll_pin_acquired") and unpinned ("nr_foll_pin_released"), via
pin_user_pages*() and unpin_user_pages*().
In the absence of long-running DMA or RDMA operations that hold pages
pinned, the above two fields will normally be equal to each other.
Also: update Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst, to remove an
earlier (now confirmed untrue) claim about a performance problem with
/proc/vmstat.
Also: update Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst to rename the new
/proc/vmstat entries, to the names listed here.

For huge pages (and in fact, any compound page), the GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS
scheme tends to overflow too easily, each tail page increments the head
page->_refcount by GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS (1024). That limits the number
of huge pages that can be pinned.
This patch removes that limitation, by using an exact form of pin counting
for compound pages of order > 1. The "order > 1" is required because this
approach uses the 3rd struct page in the compound page, and order 1
compound pages only have two pages, so that won't work there.
A new struct page field, hpage_pinned_refcount, has been added, replacing
a padding field in the union (so no new space is used).
This enhancement also has a useful side effect: huge pages and compound
pages (of order > 1) do not suffer from the "potential false positives"
problem that is discussed in the page_dma_pinned() comment block. That is
because these compound pages have extra space for tracking things, so they
get exact pin counts instead of overloading page->_refcount.
Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst is updated accordingly.

Add tracking of pages that were pinned via FOLL_PIN. This tracking is
implemented via overloading of page->_refcount: pins are added by adding
GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS (1024) to the refcount. This provides a fuzzy
indication of pinning, and it can have false positives (and that's OK).
Please see the pre-existing Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst for
details.
As mentioned in pin_user_pages.rst, callers who effectively set FOLL_PIN
(typically via pin_user_pages*()) are required to ultimately free such
pages via unpin_user_page().
Please also note the limitation, discussed in pin_user_pages.rst under the
"TODO: for 1GB and larger huge pages" section. (That limitation will be
removed in a following patch.)
The effect of a FOLL_PIN flag is similar to that of FOLL_GET, and may be
thought of as "FOLL_GET for DIO and/or RDMA use".
Pages that have been pinned via FOLL_PIN are identifiable via a new
function call:
bool page_maybe_dma_pinned(struct page *page);
What to do in response to encountering such a page, is left to later
patchsets. There is discussion about this in [1], [2], [3], and [4].
This also changes a BUG_ON(), to a WARN_ON(), in follow_page_mask().

Patch series "mm/gup: track FOLL_PIN pages", v6.
This activates tracking of FOLL_PIN pages. This is in support of fixing
the get_user_pages()+DMA problem described in [1]-[4].
FOLL_PIN support is now in the main linux tree. However, the patch to use
FOLL_PIN to track pages was *not* submitted, because Leon saw an RDMA test
suite failure that involved (I think) page refcount overflows when huge
pages were used.
This patch definitively solves that kind of overflow problem, by adding an
exact pincount, for compound pages (of order > 1), in the 3rd struct page
of a compound page. If available, that form of pincounting is used,
instead of the GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS approach. Thanks again to Jan Kara
for that idea.
Other interesting changes:
* dump_page(): added one, or two new things to report for compound
pages: head refcount (for all compound pages), and map_pincount (for
compound pages of order > 1).
* Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst: removed the "TODO" for the
huge page refcount upper limit problems, and added notes about how it
works now. Also added a note about the dump_page() enhancements.
* Added some comments in gup.c and mm.h, to explain that there are two
ways to count pinned pages: exact (for compound pages of order > 1) and
fuzzy (GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS: for all other pages).
============================================================
General notes about the tracking patch:
This is a prerequisite to solving the problem of proper interactions
between file-backed pages, and [R]DMA activities, as discussed in [1],
[2], [3], [4] and in a remarkable number of email threads since about
2017. :)
In contrast to earlier approaches, the page tracking can be incrementally
applied to the kernel call sites that, until now, have been simply calling
get_user_pages() ("gup"). In other words, opt-in by changing from this:
get_user_pages() (sets FOLL_GET)
put_page()
to this:
pin_user_pages() (sets FOLL_PIN)
unpin_user_page()
============================================================
Future steps:
* Convert more subsystems from get_user_pages() to pin_user_pages().
The first probably needs to be bio/biovecs, because any filesystem
testing is too difficult without those in place.
* Change VFS and filesystems to respond appropriately when encountering
dma-pinned pages.
* Work with Ira and others to connect this all up with file system
leases.

This patch (of 12):
An upcoming patch requires reusing the implementation of
get_user_pages_remote(). Split up get_user_pages_remote() into an outer
routine that checks flags, and an implementation routine that will be
reused. This makes subsequent changes much easier to understand.
There should be no change in behavior due to this patch.

Introduce pin_user_pages*() variations of get_user_pages*() calls, and
also pin_longterm_pages*() variations.
For now, these are placeholder calls, until the various call sites are
converted to use the correct get_user_pages*() or pin_user_pages*() API.
These variants will eventually all set FOLL_PIN, which is also
introduced, and thoroughly documented.
pin_user_pages()
pin_user_pages_remote()
pin_user_pages_fast()
All pages that are pinned via the above calls, must be unpinned via
put_user_page().
The underlying rules are:
* FOLL_PIN is a gup-internal flag, so the call sites should not directly
set it. That behavior is enforced with assertions.
* Call sites that want to indicate that they are going to do DirectIO
("DIO") or something with similar characteristics, should call a
get_user_pages()-like wrapper call that sets FOLL_PIN. These wrappers
will:
* Start with "pin_user_pages" instead of "get_user_pages". That
makes it easy to find and audit the call sites.
* Set FOLL_PIN
* For pages that are received via FOLL_PIN, those pages must be returned
via put_user_page().
Thanks to Jan Kara and Vlastimil Babka for explaining the 4 cases in
this documentation. (I've reworded it and expanded upon it.)

Commit 817be129e6 ("mm: validate get_user_pages_fast flags") allowed
only FOLL_WRITE and FOLL_LONGTERM to be passed to get_user_pages_fast().
This, combined with the fact that get_user_pages_fast() falls back to
"slow gup", which *does* accept FOLL_FORCE, leads to an odd situation:
if you need FOLL_FORCE, you cannot call get_user_pages_fast().
There does not appear to be any reason for filtering out FOLL_FORCE.
There is nothing in the _fast() implementation that requires that we
avoid writing to the pages. So it appears to have been an oversight.
Fix by allowing FOLL_FORCE to be set for get_user_pages_fast().

As it says in the updated comment in gup.c: current FOLL_LONGTERM
behavior is incompatible with FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY because of the FS
DAX check requirement on vmas.
However, the corresponding restriction in get_user_pages_remote() was
slightly stricter than is actually required: it forbade all
FOLL_LONGTERM callers, but we can actually allow FOLL_LONGTERM callers
that do not set the "locked" arg.
Update the code and comments to loosen the restriction, allowing
FOLL_LONGTERM in some cases.
Also, copy the DAX check ("if a VMA is DAX, don't allow long term
pinning") from the VFIO call site, all the way into the internals of
get_user_pages_remote() and __gup_longterm_locked(). That is:
get_user_pages_remote() calls __gup_longterm_locked(), which in turn
calls check_dax_vmas(). This check will then be removed from the VFIO
call site in a subsequent patch.
Thanks to Jason Gunthorpe for pointing out a clean way to fix this, and
to Dan Williams for helping clarify the DAX refactoring.

Patch series "mm/gup: prereqs to track dma-pinned pages: FOLL_PIN", v12.
Overview:
This is a prerequisite to solving the problem of proper interactions
between file-backed pages, and [R]DMA activities, as discussed in [1],
[2], [3], and in a remarkable number of email threads since about
2017. :)
A new internal gup flag, FOLL_PIN is introduced, and thoroughly
documented in the last patch's Documentation/vm/pin_user_pages.rst.
I believe that this will provide a good starting point for doing the
layout lease work that Ira Weiny has been working on. That's because
these new wrapper functions provide a clean, constrained, systematically
named set of functionality that, again, is required in order to even
know if a page is "dma-pinned".
In contrast to earlier approaches, the page tracking can be
incrementally applied to the kernel call sites that, until now, have
been simply calling get_user_pages() ("gup"). In other words, opt-in by
changing from this:
get_user_pages() (sets FOLL_GET)
put_page()
to this:
pin_user_pages() (sets FOLL_PIN)
unpin_user_page()
Testing:
* I've done some overall kernel testing (LTP, and a few other goodies),
and some directed testing to exercise some of the changes. And as you
can see, gup_benchmark is enhanced to exercise this. Basically, I've
been able to runtime test the core get_user_pages() and
pin_user_pages() and related routines, but not so much on several of
the call sites--but those are generally just a couple of lines
changed, each.
Not much of the kernel is actually using this, which on one hand
reduces risk quite a lot. But on the other hand, testing coverage
is low. So I'd love it if, in particular, the Infiniband and PowerPC
folks could do a smoke test of this series for me.
Runtime testing for the call sites so far is pretty light:
* io_uring: Some directed tests from liburing exercise this, and
they pass.
* process_vm_access.c: A small directed test passes.
* gup_benchmark: the enhanced version hits the new gup.c code, and
passes.
* infiniband: Ran rdma-core tests: rdma-core/build/bin/run_tests.py
* VFIO: compiles (I'm vowing to set up a run time test soon, but it's
not ready just yet)
* powerpc: it compiles...
* drm/via: compiles...
* goldfish: compiles...
* net/xdp: compiles...
* media/v4l2: compiles...

This patch (of 22):
There are four locations in gup.c that have a fair amount of code
duplication. This means that changing one requires making the same
changes in four places, not to mention reading the same code four times,
and wondering if there are subtle differences.
Factor out the common code into static functions, thus reducing the
overall line count and the code's complexity.
Also, take the opportunity to slightly improve the efficiency of the
error cases, by doing a mass subtraction of the refcount, surrounded by
get_page()/put_page().
Also, further simplify (slightly), by waiting until the the successful
end of each routine, to increment *nr.

level of the page table was ignoring swap entries, and incorrectly
assuming that "!pxd_none() == valid and present".
And this was not just a poisoned page problem, but a generaly swap entry
problem. So, any swap entry type (device memory migration, numa
migration, or just regular swapping) could lead to the same problem.
Fix this by checking for pxd_present(), instead of pxd_none().

check_and_migrate_cma_pages() was recording the result of
__get_user_pages_locked() in an unsigned "nr_pages" variable.
Because __get_user_pages_locked() returns a signed value that can
include negative errno values, this had the effect of hiding errors.
Change check_and_migrate_cma_pages() implementation so that it uses a

just as other gup internal functions do.
This was discovered with the help of unsigned_lesser_than_zero.cocci.

"flags & FOLL_WRITE" is required, rather than just "flags".
(That problem was flagged by krobot, in v1 of this patch.)
Also, change the flags argument from int, to unsigned int.
You can see that this was a simple oversight, because the
calling code passes "flags" to the fifth argument:
gup_pgd_range():
...
if (!gup_huge_pd(__hugepd(pgd_val(pgd)), addr,
PGDIR_SHIFT, next, flags, pages, nr))
...which, until this patch, the callees referred to as "write".
Also, change two lines to avoid checkpatch line length
complaints, and another line to fix another oversight
that checkpatch called out: missing "int" on pdshift.

This patch is a part of a series that extends kernel ABI to allow to pass
tagged user pointers (with the top byte set to something else other than
0x00) as syscall arguments.
mm/gup.c provides a kernel interface that accepts user addresses and
manipulates user pages directly (for example get_user_pages, that is used
by the futex syscall). Since a user can provided tagged addresses, we
need to handle this case.
Add untagging to gup.c functions that use user addresses for vma lookups.

Introduce a new foll_flag: FOLL_SPLIT_PMD. As the name says
FOLL_SPLIT_PMD splits huge pmd for given mm_struct, the underlining huge
page stays as-is.
FOLL_SPLIT_PMD is useful for cases where we need to use regular pages, but
would switch back to huge page and huge pmd on. One of such example is
uprobe. The following patches use FOLL_SPLIT_PMD in uprobe.

Subject: mm/gup: add make_dirty arg to put_user_pages_dirty_lock()
Patch series "mm/gup: add make_dirty arg to put_user_pages_dirty_lock()",
v3.
There are about 50+ patches in my tree [2], and I'll be sending out the
remaining ones in a few more groups:
* The block/bio related changes (Jerome mostly wrote those, but I've had
to move stuff around extensively, and add a little code)
* mm/ changes
* other subsystem patches
* an RFC that shows the current state of the tracking patch set. That
can only be applied after all call sites are converted, but it's good to
get an early look at it.
This is part a tree-wide conversion, as described in fc1d8e7cca ("mm:
introduce put_user_page*(), placeholder versions").
This patch (of 3):
Provide more capable variation of put_user_pages_dirty_lock(), and delete
put_user_pages_dirty(). This is based on the following:
1. Lots of call sites become simpler if a bool is passed into
put_user_page*(), instead of making the call site choose which
put_user_page*() variant to call.
2. Christoph Hellwig's observation that set_page_dirty_lock() is
usually correct, and set_page_dirty() is usually a bug, or at least
questionable, within a put_user_page*() calling chain.
This leads to the following API choices:
* put_user_pages_dirty_lock(page, npages, make_dirty)
* There is no put_user_pages_dirty(). You have to
hand code that, in the rare case that it's
required.

ARCH_HAS_ZONE_DEVICE is somewhat meaningless in itself, and combined
with the long-out-of-date comment can lead to the impression than an
architecture may just enable it (since __add_pages() now "comprehends
device memory" for itself) and expect things to work.
In practice, however, ZONE_DEVICE users have little chance of
functioning correctly without __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_DEVMAP, so let's clean
that up the same way as ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL and make it the proper
dependency so the real situation is clearer.

Improvements and bug fixes for the hmm interface in the kernel:

merged last cycle. In linux-next we now see AMDGPU and nouveau to be
using this API.
- Remove old or transitional hmm APIs. These are hold overs from the past
with no users, or APIs that existed only to manage cross tree conflicts.
There are still a few more of these cleanups that didn't make the merge
window cut off.
- Improve some core mm APIs:
* export alloc_pages_vma() for driver use
* refactor into devm_request_free_mem_region() to manage
DEVICE_PRIVATE resource reservations
* refactor duplicative driver code into the core dev_pagemap
struct
- Remove hmm wrappers of improved core mm APIs, instead have drivers use
the simplified API directly
- Remove DEVICE_PUBLIC
- Simplify the kconfig flow for the hmm users and core code

It's not entirely implausible that this could happen some day on x86. It
doesn't right now even with an execute-only emulated vsyscall page because
the fixmap shares the PUD, but the core mm code shouldn't rely on that

Both hugetlb and thp locate on the same migration type of pageblock, since
they are allocated from a free_list[]. Based on this fact, it is enough
to check on a single subpage to decide the migration type of the whole
huge page. By this way, it saves (2M/4K - 1) times loop for pmd_huge on
x86, similar on other archs.
Furthermore, when executing isolate_huge_page(), it avoid taking global
hugetlb_lock many times, and meanless remove/add to the local link list
cma_page_list.

Always build mm/gup.c so that we don't have to provide separate nommu
stubs. Also merge the get_user_pages_fast and __get_user_pages_fast stubs
when HAVE_FAST_GUP into the main implementations, which will never call
the fast path if HAVE_FAST_GUP is not set.
This also ensures the new put_user_pages* helpers are available for nommu,
as those are currently missing, which would create a problem as soon as we
actually grew users for it.

When get_user_pages*() is called with pages = NULL, the processing of
VM_FAULT_RETRY terminates early without actually retrying to fault-in all
the pages.
If the pages in the requested range belong to a VMA that has userfaultfd
registered, handle_userfault() returns VM_FAULT_RETRY *after* user space
has populated the page, but for the gup pre-fault case there's no actual
retry and the caller will get no pages although they are present.
This issue was uncovered when running post-copy memory restore in CRIU
after d9c9ce34ed ("x86/fpu: Fault-in user stack if
copy_fpstate_to_sigframe() fails").
After this change, the copying of FPU state to the sigframe switched from
copy_to_user() variants which caused a real page fault to get_user_pages()
with pages parameter set to NULL.
In post-copy mode of CRIU, the destination memory is managed with
userfaultfd and lack of the retry for pre-fault case in get_user_pages()
causes a crash of the restored process.
Making the pre-fault behavior of get_user_pages() the same as the "normal"
one fixes the issue.

A discussion of the overall problem is below.
As mentioned in patch 0001, the steps are to fix the problem are:
1) Provide put_user_page*() routines, intended to be used
for releasing pages that were pinned via get_user_pages*().
2) Convert all of the call sites for get_user_pages*(), to
invoke put_user_page*(), instead of put_page(). This involves dozens of
call sites, and will take some time.
3) After (2) is complete, use get_user_pages*() and put_user_page*() to
implement tracking of these pages. This tracking will be separate from
the existing struct page refcounting.
4) Use the tracking and identification of these pages, to implement
special handling (especially in writeback paths) when the pages are
backed by a filesystem.
Overview
========
Some kernel components (file systems, device drivers) need to access
memory that is specified via process virtual address. For a long time,
the API to achieve that was get_user_pages ("GUP") and its variations.
However, GUP has critical limitations that have been overlooked; in
particular, GUP does not interact correctly with filesystems in all
situations. That means that file-backed memory + GUP is a recipe for
potential problems, some of which have already occurred in the field.
GUP was first introduced for Direct IO (O_DIRECT), allowing filesystem
code to get the struct page behind a virtual address and to let storage
hardware perform a direct copy to or from that page. This is a
short-lived access pattern, and as such, the window for a concurrent
writeback of GUP'd page was small enough that there were not (we think)
any reported problems. Also, userspace was expected to understand and
accept that Direct IO was not synchronized with memory-mapped access to
that data, nor with any process address space changes such as munmap(),
mremap(), etc.
Over the years, more GUP uses have appeared (virtualization, device
drivers, RDMA) that can keep the pages they get via GUP for a long period
of time (seconds, minutes, hours, days, ...). This long-term pinning
makes an underlying design problem more obvious.
In fact, there are a number of key problems inherent to GUP:
Interactions with file systems
==============================
File systems expect to be able to write back data, both to reclaim pages,
and for data integrity. Allowing other hardware (NICs, GPUs, etc) to gain
write access to the file memory pages means that such hardware can dirty
the pages, without the filesystem being aware. This can, in some cases
(depending on filesystem, filesystem options, block device, block device
options, and other variables), lead to data corruption, and also to kernel
bugs of the form:
kernel BUG at /build/linux-fQ94TU/linux-4.4.0/fs/ext4/inode.c:1899!
backtrace:
ext4_writepage
__writepage
write_cache_pages
ext4_writepages
do_writepages
__writeback_single_inode
writeback_sb_inodes
__writeback_inodes_wb
wb_writeback
wb_workfn
process_one_work
worker_thread
kthread
ret_from_fork
...which is due to the file system asserting that there are still buffer
heads attached:
({ \
BUG_ON(!PagePrivate(page)); \
((struct buffer_head *)page_private(page)); \
})
Dave Chinner's description of this is very clear:
"The fundamental issue is that ->page_mkwrite must be called on every
write access to a clean file backed page, not just the first one.
How long the GUP reference lasts is irrelevant, if the page is clean
and you need to dirty it, you must call ->page_mkwrite before it is
marked writeable and dirtied. Every. Time."
This is just one symptom of the larger design problem: real filesystems
that actually write to a backing device, do not actually support
get_user_pages() being called on their pages, and letting hardware write
directly to those pages--even though that pattern has been going on since
about 2005 or so.
Long term GUP
=============
Long term GUP is an issue when FOLL_WRITE is specified to GUP (so, a
writeable mapping is created), and the pages are file-backed. That can
lead to filesystem corruption. What happens is that when a file-backed
page is being written back, it is first mapped read-only in all of the CPU
page tables; the file system then assumes that nobody can write to the
page, and that the page content is therefore stable. Unfortunately, the
GUP callers generally do not monitor changes to the CPU pages tables; they
instead assume that the following pattern is safe (it's not):
get_user_pages()
Hardware can keep a reference to those pages for a very long time,
and write to it at any time. Because "hardware" here means "devices
that are not a CPU", this activity occurs without any interaction with
the kernel's file system code.
for each page
set_page_dirty
put_page()
In fact, the GUP documentation even recommends that pattern.
Anyway, the file system assumes that the page is stable (nothing is
writing to the page), and that is a problem: stable page content is
necessary for many filesystem actions during writeback, such as checksum,
encryption, RAID striping, etc. Furthermore, filesystem features like COW
(copy on write) or snapshot also rely on being able to use a new page for
as memory for that memory range inside the file.
Corruption during write back is clearly possible here. To solve that, one
idea is to identify pages that have active GUP, so that we can use a
bounce page to write stable data to the filesystem. The filesystem would
work on the bounce page, while any of the active GUP might write to the
original page. This would avoid the stable page violation problem, but
note that it is only part of the overall solution, because other problems
remain.
Other filesystem features that need to replace the page with a new one can
be inhibited for pages that are GUP-pinned. This will, however, alter and
limit some of those filesystem features. The only fix for that would be
to require GUP users to monitor and respond to CPU page table updates.
Subsystems such as ODP and HMM do this, for example. This aspect of the
problem is still under discussion.
Direct IO
=========
Direct IO can cause corruption, if userspace does Direct-IO that writes to
a range of virtual addresses that are mmap'd to a file. The pages written
to are file-backed pages that can be under write back, while the Direct IO
is taking place. Here, Direct IO races with a write back: it calls GUP
before page_mkclean() has replaced the CPU pte with a read-only entry.
The race window is pretty small, which is probably why years have gone by
before we noticed this problem: Direct IO is generally very quick, and
tends to finish up before the filesystem gets around to do anything with
the page contents. However, it's still a real problem. The solution is
to never let GUP return pages that are under write back, but instead,
force GUP to take a write fault on those pages. That way, GUP will
properly synchronize with the active write back. This does not change the
required GUP behavior, it just avoids that race.
Details
=======
Introduces put_user_page(), which simply calls put_page(). This provides
a way to update all get_user_pages*() callers, so that they call
put_user_page(), instead of put_page().
Also introduces put_user_pages(), and a few dirty/locked variations, as a
replacement for release_pages(), and also as a replacement for open-coded
loops that release multiple pages. These may be used for subsequent
performance improvements, via batching of pages to be released.
This is the first step of fixing a problem (also described in [1] and [2])
with interactions between get_user_pages ("gup") and filesystems.
Problem description: let's start with a bug report. Below, is what
happens sometimes, under memory pressure, when a driver pins some pages
via gup, and then marks those pages dirty, and releases them. Note that
the gup documentation actually recommends that pattern. The problem is
that the filesystem may do a writeback while the pages were gup-pinned,
and then the filesystem believes that the pages are clean. So, when the
driver later marks the pages as dirty, that conflicts with the
filesystem's page tracking and results in a BUG(), like this one that I
experienced:
kernel BUG at /build/linux-fQ94TU/linux-4.4.0/fs/ext4/inode.c:1899!
backtrace:
ext4_writepage
__writepage
write_cache_pages
ext4_writepages
do_writepages
__writeback_single_inode

wb_writeback
wb_workfn
process_one_work
worker_thread
kthread
ret_from_fork
...which is due to the file system asserting that there are still buffer
heads attached:
({ \
BUG_ON(!PagePrivate(page)); \
((struct buffer_head *)page_private(page)); \
})
Dave Chinner's description of this is very clear:
"The fundamental issue is that ->page_mkwrite must be called on
every write access to a clean file backed page, not just the first
one. How long the GUP reference lasts is irrelevant, if the page is

To facilitate additional options to get_user_pages_fast() change the
singular write parameter to be gup_flags.
This patch does not change any functionality. New functionality will
follow in subsequent patches.
Some of the get_user_pages_fast() call sites were unchanged because they
already passed FOLL_WRITE or 0 for the write parameter.
NOTE: It was suggested to change the ordering of the get_user_pages_fast()
arguments to ensure that callers were converted. This breaks the current
GUP call site convention of having the returned pages be the final
parameter. So the suggestion was rejected.

Pach series "Add FOLL_LONGTERM to GUP fast and use it".
HFI1, qib, and mthca, use get_user_pages_fast() due to its performance
advantages. These pages can be held for a significant time. But
get_user_pages_fast() does not protect against mapping FS DAX pages.
Introduce FOLL_LONGTERM and use this flag in get_user_pages_fast() which
retains the performance while also adding the FS DAX checks. XDP has also
shown interest in using this functionality.[1]
In addition we change get_user_pages() to use the new FOLL_LONGTERM flag
and remove the specialized get_user_pages_longterm call.
[1] https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/3/19/939
"longterm" is a relative thing and at this point is probably a misnomer.
This is really flagging a pin which is going to be given to hardware and
can't move. I've thought of a couple of alternative names but I think we
have to settle on if we are going to use FL_LAYOUT or something else to
solve the "longterm" problem. Then I think we can change the flag to a
better name.
Secondly, it depends on how often you are registering memory. I have
spoken with some RDMA users who consider MR in the performance path...
For the overall application performance. I don't have the numbers as the
tests for HFI1 were done a long time ago. But there was a significant
advantage. Some of which is probably due to the fact that you don't have
to hold mmap_sem.
Finally, architecturally I think it would be good for everyone to use
*_fast. There are patches submitted to the RDMA list which would allow
the use of *_fast (they reworking the use of mmap_sem) and as soon as they
are accepted I'll submit a patch to convert the RDMA core as well. Also
to this point others are looking to use *_fast.
As an aside, Jasons pointed out in my previous submission that *_fast and
*_unlocked look very much the same. I agree and I think further cleanup
will be coming. But I'm focused on getting the final solution for DAX at
the moment.
This patch (of 7):
This patch starts a series which aims to support FOLL_LONGTERM in
get_user_pages_fast(). Some callers who would like to do a longterm (user
controlled pin) of pages with the fast variant of GUP for performance
purposes.
Rather than have a separate get_user_pages_longterm() call, introduce
FOLL_LONGTERM and change the longterm callers to use it.
This patch does not change any functionality. In the short term
"longterm" or user controlled pins are unsafe for Filesystems and FS DAX
in particular has been blocked. However, callers of get_user_pages_fast()
were not "protected".
FOLL_LONGTERM can _only_ be supported with get_user_pages[_fast]() as it
requires vmas to determine if DAX is in use.
NOTE: In merging with the CMA changes we opt to change the
get_user_pages() call in check_and_migrate_cma_pages() to a call of
__get_user_pages_locked() on the newly migrated pages. This makes the
code read better in that we are calling __get_user_pages_locked() on the
pages before and after a potential migration.
As a side affect some of the interfaces are cleaned up but this is not the
primary purpose of the series.
In review[1] it was asked:

Merge page ref overflow branch.
Jann Horn reported that he can overflow the page ref count with
sufficient memory (and a filesystem that is intentionally extremely
slow).
Admittedly it's not exactly easy. To have more than four billion
references to a page requires a minimum of 32GB of kernel memory just
for the pointers to the pages, much less any metadata to keep track of
those pointers. Jann needed a total of 140GB of memory and a specially
crafted filesystem that leaves all reads pending (in order to not ever
free the page references and just keep adding more).
Still, we have a fairly straightforward way to limit the two obvious
user-controllable sources of page references: direct-IO like page
references gotten through get_user_pages(), and the splice pipe page
duplication. So let's just do that.
* branch page-refs:
fs: prevent page refcount overflow in pipe_buf_get
mm: prevent get_user_pages() from overflowing page refcount
mm: add 'try_get_page()' helper function
mm: make page ref count overflow check tighter and more explicit
If the page refcount wraps around past zero, it will be freed while
there are still four billion references to it. One of the possible
avenues for an attacker to try to make this happen is by doing direct IO
on a page multiple times. This patch makes get_user_pages() refuse to
take a new page reference if there are already more than two billion
references to the page.

Pull x86 mm cleanup from Ingo Molnar:

* 'x86-mm-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
mm/gup: Remove the 'write' parameter from gup_fast_permitted()
This patch updates get_user_pages_longterm to migrate pages allocated
out of CMA region. This makes sure that we don't keep non-movable pages
(due to page reference count) in the CMA area.
This will be used by ppc64 in a later patch to avoid pinning pages in
the CMA region. ppc64 uses CMA region for allocation of the hardware
page table (hash page table) and not able to migrate pages out of CMA
region results in page table allocation failures.
One case where we hit this easy is when a guest using a VFIO passthrough
device. VFIO locks all the guest's memory and if the guest memory is
backed by CMA region, it becomes unmovable resulting in fragmenting the
CMA and possibly preventing other guests from allocation a large enough
hash page table.
NOTE: We allocate the new page without using __GFP_THISNODE

Nobody has actually used the type (VERIFY_READ vs VERIFY_WRITE) argument
of the user address range verification function since we got rid of the
old racy i386-only code to walk page tables by hand.
It existed because the original 80386 would not honor the write protect
bit when in kernel mode, so you had to do COW by hand before doing any
user access. But we haven't supported that in a long time, and these
days the 'type' argument is a purely historical artifact.
A discussion about extending 'user_access_begin()' to do the range
checking resulted this patch, because there is no way we're going to
move the old VERIFY_xyz interface to that model. And it's best done at
the end of the merge window when I've done most of my merges, so let's
just get this done once and for all.
This patch was mostly done with a sed-script, with manual fix-ups for
the cases that weren't of the trivial 'access_ok(VERIFY_xyz' form.
There were a couple of notable cases:
- csky still had the old "verify_area()" name as an alias.
- the iter_iov code had magical hardcoded knowledge of the actual
values of VERIFY_{READ,WRITE} (not that they mattered, since nothing
really used it)
- microblaze used the type argument for a debug printout
but other than those oddities this should be a total no-op patch.
I tried to fix up all architectures, did fairly extensive grepping for
access_ok() uses, and the changes are trivial, but I may have missed
something. Any missed conversion should be trivially fixable, though.

Commit df06b37ffe ("mm/gup: cache dev_pagemap while pinning pages")
attempted to operate on each page that get_user_pages had retrieved. In
order to do that, it created a common exit point from the routine.
However, one case was missed, which this patch fixes up.
Also, there was still an unnecessary shadow declaration (with a
different type) of the "ret" variable, which this patch removes.
Keith's description of the situation is:
This also fixes a potentially leaked dev_pagemap reference count if a
failure occurs when an iteration crosses a vma boundary. I don't think
it's normal to have different vma's on a users mapped zone device
memory, but good to fix anyway.
I actually thought that this code:
/* first iteration or cross vma bound */
if (!vma || start >= vma->vm_end) {
vma = find_extend_vma(mm, start);
if (!vma && in_gate_area(mm, start)) {
ret = get_gate_page(mm, start & PAGE_MASK,
gup_flags, &vma,
pages ? &pages[i] : NULL);
if (ret)
goto out;
dealt with the "you're trying to pin the gate page, as part of this
call", rather than the generic case of crossing a vma boundary. (I
think there's a fine point that I must be overlooking.) But it's still a
valid case, either way.

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 local variable `addr' in __get_user_pages_fast() is just a shadow of

Also the meaning of [start, end] is more obvious than [addr, end] when

The reason is that the length of the new brk is not page aligned when we

do_brk_flags already aligns the length properly so the mapping is
expanded as it should. All we need is to tell mm_populate about it.
Besides that there is absolutely no reason to to bug_on in the first
place. The worst thing that could happen is that the last page wouldn't
get populated and that is far from putting system into an inconsistent
state.
Fix the issue by moving the length sanitization code from do_brk_flags
up to vm_brk_flags. The only other caller of do_brk_flags is brk
syscall entry and it makes sure to provide the proper length so t here
is no need for sanitation and so we can use do_brk_flags without it.

mmap_sem will be read locked when calling follow_pmd_mask(). But this
cannot prevent PMD from being changed for all cases when PTL is
unlocked, for example, from pmd_trans_huge() to pmd_none() via
MADV_DONTNEED. So it is possible for the pmd_present() check in
follow_pmd_mask() to encounter an invalid PMD. This may cause an
incorrect VM_BUG_ON() or an infinite loop. Fix this by reading the PMD
entry into a local variable with READ_ONCE() and checking the local
variable and pmd_none() in the retry loop.
As Kirill pointed out, with PTL unlocked, the *pmd may be changed under
us, so reading it directly again and again may incur weird bugs. So
although using *pmd directly other than for pmd_present() checking may
be safe, it is still better to replace them to read *pmd once and check
the local variable multiple times.
When PTL unlocked, replace all *pmd with local variable was suggested by
Kirill.

This patch introduce a new configuration variable to manage this

So select ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL if ARM_LPAE.
powerpc
__HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL is defined in 2 files:
- arch/powerpc/include/asm/book3s/64/pgtable.h
- arch/powerpc/include/asm/pte-common.h
The first one is included if (PPC_BOOK3S & PPC64) while the second is
included in all the other cases.
So select ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL all the time.
sparc:
__HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL is defined if defined(__sparc__) &&
defined(__arch64__) which are defined through the compiler in
sparc/Makefile if !SPARC32 which I assume to be if SPARC64.
So select ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL if SPARC64
There is no functional change introduced by this patch.

get_user_pages_fast() for device pages is missing the typical validation
that all page references have been taken while the mapping was valid.
Without this validation truncate operations can not reliably coordinate
against new page reference events like O_DIRECT.

proc_pid_cmdline_read() and environ_read() directly access the target
process' VM to retrieve the command line and environment. If this
process remaps these areas onto a file via mmap(), the requesting
process may experience various issues such as extra delays if the
underlying device is slow to respond.
Let's simply refuse to access file-backed areas in these functions.
For this we add a new FOLL_ANON gup flag that is passed to all calls
to access_remote_vm(). The code already takes care of such failures
(including unmapped areas). Accesses via /proc/pid/mem were not
changed though.
This was assigned CVE-2018-1120.
Note for stable backports: the patch may apply to kernels prior to 4.11
but silently miss one location; it must be checked that no call to
access_remote_vm() keeps zero as the last argument.
