    KVM: MMU: Do not treat ZONE_DEVICE pages as being reserved · a78986aa
    Sean Christopherson 提交于
    Explicitly exempt ZONE_DEVICE pages from kvm_is_reserved_pfn() and
    instead manually handle ZONE_DEVICE on a case-by-case basis.  For things
    like page refcounts, KVM needs to treat ZONE_DEVICE pages like normal
    pages, e.g. put pages grabbed via gup().  But for flows such as setting
    A/D bits or shifting refcounts for transparent huge pages, KVM needs to
    to avoid processing ZONE_DEVICE pages as the flows in question lack the
    underlying machinery for proper handling of ZONE_DEVICE pages.
    
    This fixes a hang reported by Adam Borowski[*] in dev_pagemap_cleanup()
    when running a KVM guest backed with /dev/dax memory, as KVM straight up
    doesn't put any references to ZONE_DEVICE pages acquired by gup().
    
    Note, Dan Williams proposed an alternative solution of doing put_page()
    on ZONE_DEVICE pages immediately after gup() in order to simplify the
    auditing needed to ensure is_zone_device_page() is called if and only if
    the backing device is pinned (via gup()).  But that approach would break
    kvm_vcpu_{un}map() as KVM requires the page to be pinned from map() 'til
    unmap() when accessing guest memory, unlike KVM's secondary MMU, which
    coordinates with mmu_notifier invalidations to avoid creating stale
    page references, i.e. doesn't rely on pages being pinned.
