[11~From: John Hubbard <jhubbard@nvidia.com> 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 fc1d8e7c ("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ARCH_HAS_ZONE_DEVICE is somewhat meaningless in itself, and combined with the long-out-of-date comment can lead to the impression than an architecture may just enable it (since __add_pages() now "comprehends device memory" for itself) and expect things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.

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 d9c9ce34 ("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 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. The steps are to fix it are: 1) (This patch): 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.

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: <quote> > This I don't get - if you do lock down long term mappings performance > of the actual get_user_pages call shouldn't matter to start with. > > What do I miss?

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.

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. Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Commit df06b37f ("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 `start'. Since `start' never changes after assignment to `addr', it is fine to replace `start' with it. Also the meaning of [start, end] is more obvious than [addr, end] when passed to gup_pgd_range().

Use new return type vm_fault_t for fault handler. For now, this is just documenting that the function returns a VM_FAULT value rather than an errno. Once all instances are converted, vm_fault_t will become a distinct type. Ref-> commit 1c8f4220 ("mm: change return type to vm_fault_t") The aim is to change the return type of finish_fault() and handle_mm_fault() to vm_fault_t type. As part of that clean up return type of all other recursively called functions have been changed to vm_fault_t type. The places from where handle_mm_fault() is getting invoked will be change to vm_fault_t type but in a separate patch. vmf_error() is the newly introduce inline function in 4.17-rc6.

There is no reason to bug on that though. 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. Also remove the bogus BUG_ONs.

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.

Currently the PTE special supports is turned on in per architecture header files. Most of the time, it is defined in arch/*/include/asm/pgtable.h depending or not on some other per architecture static definition. This patch introduce a new configuration variable to manage this directly in the Kconfig files. It would later replace __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL. Here notes for some architecture where the definition of __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL is not obvious: arm __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL which is currently defined in arch/arm/include/asm/pgtable-3level.h which is included by arch/arm/include/asm/pgtable.h when CONFIG_ARM_LPAE is set. 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.
