      mm/gup: continue VM_FAULT_RETRY processing even for pre-faults · df17277b
      由 Mike Rapoport 提交于 
      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.

    • J
      mm: introduce put_user_page*(), placeholder versions · fc1d8e7c
      由 John Hubbard 提交于 
      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

        __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."

get_user_pages() being called on their pages, and letting hardware write

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.

      由 Ira Weiny 提交于 
      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:

A couple of points.

First "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

change the flag to a better name.

Second, It depends on how often you are registering memory.  I have spoken

      mm: update get_user_pages_longterm to migrate pages allocated from CMA region · 9a4e9f3b
      由 Aneesh Kumar K.V 提交于 
      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

      Remove 'type' argument from access_ok() function · 96d4f267
      由 Linus Torvalds 提交于 
      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.

      mm/gup: finish consolidating error handling · 08be37b7
      由 John Hubbard 提交于 
      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.

The reason is that the length of the new brk is not page aligned when we
try to populate the it.  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.

      mm, gup: prevent pmd checking race in follow_pmd_mask() · 68827280
      由 Huang Ying 提交于 
      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.

      mm: introduce ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL · 3010a5ea
      由 Laurent Dufour 提交于 
      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.
