The TLB invalidation info is allocated on the stack, which might cause it to be unaligned. Since this information may be transferred to different cores for TLB shootdown, this may cause an additional cache line to become shared. While the overhead is likely to be small, the fix is simple. We do not use __cacheline_aligned() since it also defines the section, which is inappropriate for stack variables.

There are two places where core serialization is needed by membarrier: 1) When returning from the membarrier IPI, 2) After scheduler updates curr to a thread with a different mm, before going back to user-space, since the curr->mm is used by membarrier to check whether it needs to send an IPI to that CPU. x86-32 uses IRET as return from interrupt, and both IRET and SYSEXIT to go back to user-space. The IRET instruction is core serializing, but not SYSEXIT. x86-64 uses IRET as return from interrupt, which takes care of the IPI. However, it can return to user-space through either SYSRETL (compat code), SYSRETQ, or IRET. Given that SYSRET{L,Q} is not core serializing, we rely instead on write_cr3() performed by switch_mm() to provide core serialization after changing the current mm, and deal with the special case of kthread -> uthread (temporarily keeping current mm into active_mm) by adding a sync_core() in that specific case. Use the new sync_core_before_usermode() to guarantee this.

Flush indirect branches when switching into a process that marked itself non dumpable. This protects high value processes like gpg better, without having too high performance overhead. If done naïvely, we could switch to a kernel idle thread and then back to the original process, such as: process A -> idle -> process A In such scenario, we do not have to do IBPB here even though the process is non-dumpable, as we are switching back to the same process after a hiatus. To avoid the redundant IBPB, which is expensive, we track the last mm user context ID. The cost is to have an extra u64 mm context id to track the last mm we were using before switching to the init_mm used by idle. Avoiding the extra IBPB is probably worth the extra memory for this common scenario. For those cases where tlb_defer_switch_to_init_mm() returns true (non PCID), lazy tlb will defer switch to init_mm, so we will not be changing the mm for the process A -> idle -> process A switch. So IBPB will be skipped for this case. Thanks to the reviewers and Andy Lutomirski for the suggestion of using ctx_id which got rid of the problem of mm pointer recycling.

Neil Berrington reported a double-fault on a VM with 768GB of RAM that uses large amounts of vmalloc space with PTI enabled. The cause is that load_new_mm_cr3() was never fixed to take the 5-level pgd folding code into account, so, on a 4-level kernel, the pgd synchronization logic compiles away to exactly nothing. Interestingly, the problem doesn't trigger with nopti. I assume this is because the kernel is mapped with global pages if we boot with nopti. The sequence of operations when we create a new task is that we first load its mm while still running on the old stack (which crashes if the old stack is unmapped in the new mm unless the TLB saves us), then we call prepare_switch_to(), and then we switch to the new stack. prepare_switch_to() pokes the new stack directly, which will populate the mapping through vmalloc_fault(). I assume that we're getting lucky on non-PTI systems -- the old stack's TLB entry stays alive long enough to make it all the way through prepare_switch_to() and switch_to() so that we make it to a valid stack.

We can use PCID to retain the TLBs across CR3 switches; including those now part of the user/kernel switch. This increases performance of kernel entry/exit at the cost of more expensive/complicated TLB flushing. Now that we have two address spaces, one for kernel and one for user space, we need two PCIDs per mm. We use the top PCID bit to indicate a user PCID (just like we use the PFN LSB for the PGD). Since we do TLB invalidation from kernel space, the existing code will only invalidate the kernel PCID, we augment that by marking the corresponding user PCID invalid, and upon switching back to userspace, use a flushing CR3 write for the switch. In order to access the user_pcid_flush_mask we use PER_CPU storage, which means the previously established SWAPGS vs CR3 ordering is now mandatory and required. Having to do this memory access does require additional registers, most sites have a functioning stack and we can spill one (RAX), sites without functional stack need to otherwise provide the second scratch register. Note: PCID is generally available on Intel Sandybridge and later CPUs. Note: Up until this point TLB flushing was broken in this series.

If changing the page tables in such a way that an invalidation of all contexts (aka. PCIDs / ASIDs) is required, they can be actively invalidated by: 1. INVPCID for each PCID (works for single pages too). 2. Load CR3 with each PCID without the NOFLUSH bit set 3. Load CR3 with the NOFLUSH bit set for each and do INVLPG for each address. But, none of these are really feasible since there are ~6 ASIDs (12 with PAGE_TABLE_ISOLATION) at the time that invalidation is required. Instead of actively invalidating them, invalidate the *current* context and also mark the cpu_tlbstate _quickly_ to indicate future invalidation to be required. At the next context-switch, look for this indicator ('invalidate_other' being set) invalidate all of the cpu_tlbstate.ctxs[] entries. This ensures that any future context switches will do a full flush of the TLB, picking up the previous changes.

For flushing the TLB, the ASID which has been programmed into the hardware must be known. That differs from what is in 'cpu_tlbstate'. Add functions to transform the 'cpu_tlbstate' values into to the one programmed into the hardware (CR3).

This reverts commit 43858b4f. The reason I removed the leave_mm() calls in question is because the heuristic wasn't needed after that patch. With the original version of my PCID series, we never flushed a "lazy cpu" (i.e. a CPU running kernel thread) due a flush on the loaded mm. Unfortunately, that caused architectural issues, so now I've reinstated these flushes on non-PCID systems in: commit b956575b ("x86/mm: Flush more aggressively in lazy TLB mode"). That, in turn, gives us a power management and occasionally performance regression as compared to old kernels: a process that goes into a deep idle state on a given CPU and gets its mm flushed due to activity on a different CPU will wake the idle CPU. Reinstate the old ugly heuristic: if a CPU goes into ACPI C3 or an intel_idle state that is likely to cause a TLB flush gets its mm switched to init_mm before going idle. FWIW, this heuristic is lousy. Whether we should change CR3 before idle isn't a good hint except insofar as the performance hit is a bit lower if the TLB is getting flushed by the idle code anyway. What we really want to know is whether we anticipate being idle long enough that the mm is likely to be flushed before we wake up. This is more a matter of the expected latency than the idle state that gets chosen. This heuristic also completely fails on systems that don't know whether the TLB will be flushed (e.g. AMD systems?). OTOH it may be a bit obsolete anyway -- PCID systems don't presently benefit from this heuristic at all. We also shouldn't do this callback from innermost bit of the idle code due to the RCU nastiness it causes. All the information need is available before rcu_idle_enter() needs to happen.

Since commit: 94b1b03b ("x86/mm: Rework lazy TLB mode and TLB freshness tracking") x86's lazy TLB mode has been all the way lazy: when running a kernel thread (including the idle thread), the kernel keeps using the last user mm's page tables without attempting to maintain user TLB coherence at all. From a pure semantic perspective, this is fine -- kernel threads won't attempt to access user pages, so having stale TLB entries doesn't matter. Unfortunately, I forgot about a subtlety. By skipping TLB flushes, we also allow any paging-structure caches that may exist on the CPU to become incoherent. This means that we can have a paging-structure cache entry that references a freed page table, and the CPU is within its rights to do a speculative page walk starting at the freed page table. I can imagine this causing two different problems: - A speculative page walk starting from a bogus page table could read IO addresses. I haven't seen any reports of this causing problems. - A speculative page walk that involves a bogus page table can install garbage in the TLB. Such garbage would always be at a user VA, but some AMD CPUs have logic that triggers a machine check when it notices these bogus entries. I've seen a couple reports of this. Boris further explains the failure mode: > It is actually more of an optimization which assumes that paging-structure > entries are in WB DRAM: > > "TlbCacheDis: cacheable memory disable. Read-write. 0=Enables > performance optimization that assumes PML4, PDP, PDE, and PTE entries > are in cacheable WB-DRAM; memory type checks may be bypassed, and > addresses outside of WB-DRAM may result in undefined behavior or NB > protocol errors. 1=Disables performance optimization and allows PML4, > PDP, PDE and PTE entries to be in any memory type.

In > such cases, the NB will generate an MCE if it sees a mismatch between > the memory operation generated by the core and the link type." > > I'm assuming coherent-only packets don't go out on IO links, thus the > error. To fix this, reinstate TLB coherence in lazy mode. With this patch applied, we do it in one of two ways: - If we have PCID, we simply switch back to init_mm's page tables when we enter a kernel thread -- this seems to be quite cheap except for the cost of serializing the CPU. - If we don't have PCID, then we set a flag and switch to init_mm the first time we would otherwise need to flush the TLB. The /sys/kernel/debug/x86/tlb_use_lazy_mode debug switch can be changed to override the default mode for benchmarking. In theory, we could optimize this better by only flushing the TLB in lazy CPUs when a page table is freed. Doing that would require auditing the mm code to make sure that all page table freeing goes through tlb_remove_page() as well as reworking some data structures to implement the improved flush logic.

Current, the code that assembles a value to load into CR3 is open-coded everywhere. Factor it out into helpers build_cr3() and build_cr3_noflush(). This makes one semantic change: __get_current_cr3_fast() was wrong on SME systems. No one noticed because the only caller is in the VMX code, and there are no CPUs with both SME and VMX.

When Linux brings a CPU down and back up, it switches to init_mm and then loads swapper_pg_dir into CR3. With PCID enabled, this has the side effect of masking off the ASID bits in CR3. This can result in some confusion in the TLB handling code. If we bring a CPU down and back up with any ASID other than 0, we end up with the wrong ASID active on the CPU after resume. This could cause our internal state to become corrupt, although major corruption is unlikely because init_mm doesn't have any user pages. More obviously, if CONFIG_DEBUG_VM=y, we'll trip over an assertion in the next context switch. The result of *that* is a failure to resume from suspend with probability 1 - 1/6^(cpus-1). Fix it by reinitializing cpu_tlbstate on resume and CPU bringup.

PCID is a "process context ID" -- it's what other architectures call an address space ID. Every non-global TLB entry is tagged with a PCID, only TLB entries that match the currently selected PCID are used, and we can switch PGDs without flushing the TLB. x86's PCID is 12 bits. This is an unorthodox approach to using PCID. x86's PCID is far too short to uniquely identify a process, and we can't even really uniquely identify a running process because there are monster systems with over 4096 CPUs. To make matters worse, past attempts to use all 12 PCID bits have resulted in slowdowns instead of speedups. This patch uses PCID differently. We use a PCID to identify a recently-used mm on a per-cpu basis. An mm has no fixed PCID binding at all; instead, we give it a fresh PCID each time it's loaded except in cases where we want to preserve the TLB, in which case we reuse a recent value. Here are some benchmark results, done on a Skylake laptop at 2.3 GHz (turbo off, intel_pstate requesting max performance) under KVM with the guest using idle=poll (to avoid artifacts when bouncing between CPUs). I haven't done any real statistics here -- I just ran them in a loop and picked the fastest results that didn't look like outliers.

Changes to the existing page table macros will allow the SME support to be enabled in a simple fashion with minimal changes to files that use these macros. Since the memory encryption mask will now be part of the regular pagetable macros, we introduce two new macros (_PAGE_TABLE_NOENC and _KERNPG_TABLE_NOENC) to allow for early pagetable creation/initialization without the encryption mask before SME becomes active. Two new pgprot() macros are defined to allow setting or clearing the page encryption mask. The FIXMAP_PAGE_NOCACHE define is introduced for use with MMIO. SME does not support encryption for MMIO areas so this define removes the encryption mask from the page attribute. Two new macros are introduced (__sme_pa() / __sme_pa_nodebug()) to allow creating a physical address with the encryption mask. These are used when working with the cr3 register so that the PGD can be encrypted. The current __va() macro is updated so that the virtual address is generated based off of the physical address without the encryption mask thus allowing the same virtual address to be generated regardless of whether encryption is enabled for that physical location or not. Also, an early initialization function is added for SME. If SME is active, this function: - Updates the early_pmd_flags so that early page faults create mappings with the encryption mask. - Updates the __supported_pte_mask to include the encryption mask. - Updates the protection_map entries to include the encryption mask so that user-space allocations will automatically have the encryption mask applied.

Now that lazy TLB suppresses all flush IPIs (as opposed to all but the first), there's no need to leave_mm() when going idle. This means we can get rid of the rcuidle hack in switch_mm_irqs_off() and we can unexport leave_mm(). This also removes acpi_unlazy_tlb() from the x86 and ia64 headers, since it has no callers any more.

x86's lazy TLB mode used to be fairly weak -- it would switch to init_mm the first time it tried to flush a lazy TLB. This meant an unnecessary CR3 write and, if the flush was remote, an unnecessary IPI. Rewrite it entirely. When we enter lazy mode, we simply remove the CPU from mm_cpumask. This means that we need a way to figure out whether we've missed a flush when we switch back out of lazy mode. I use the tlb_gen machinery to track whether a context is up to date. Note to reviewers: this patch, my itself, looks a bit odd. I'm using an array of length 1 containing (ctx_id, tlb_gen) rather than just storing tlb_gen, and making it at array isn't necessary yet. I'm doing this because the next few patches add PCID support, and, with PCID, we need ctx_id, and the array will end up with a length greater than 1. Making it an array now means that there will be less churn and therefore less stress on your eyeballs. NB: This is dubious but, AFAICT, still correct on Xen and UV. xen_exit_mmap() uses mm_cpumask() for nefarious purposes and this patch changes the way that mm_cpumask() works. This should be okay, since Xen *also* iterates all online CPUs to find all the CPUs it needs to twiddle. The UV tlbflush code is rather dated and should be changed. Here are some benchmark results, done on a Skylake laptop at 2.3 GHz (turbo off, intel_pstate requesting max performance) under KVM with the guest using idle=poll (to avoid artifacts when bouncing between CPUs).

There are two kernel features that would benefit from tracking how up-to-date each CPU's TLB is in the case where IPIs aren't keeping it up to date in real time: - Lazy mm switching currently works by switching to init_mm when it would otherwise flush. This is wasteful: there isn't fundamentally any need to update CR3 at all when going lazy or when returning from lazy mode, nor is there any need to receive flush IPIs at all. Instead, we should just stop trying to keep the TLB coherent when we go lazy and, when unlazying, check whether we missed any flushes. - PCID will let us keep recent user contexts alive in the TLB. If we start doing this, we need a way to decide whether those contexts are up to date. On some paravirt systems, remote TLBs can be flushed without IPIs. This won't update the target CPUs' tlb_gens, which may cause unnecessary local flushes later on. We can address this if it becomes a problem by carefully updating the target CPU's tlb_gen directly. By itself, this patch is a very minor optimization that avoids unnecessary flushes when multiple TLB flushes targetting the same CPU race. The complexity in this patch would not be worth it on its own, but it will enable improved lazy TLB tracking and PCID.

This adds two new variables to mmu_context_t: ctx_id and tlb_gen. ctx_id uniquely identifies the mm_struct and will never be reused. For a given mm_struct (and hence ctx_id), tlb_gen is a monotonic count of the number of times that a TLB flush has been requested. The pair (ctx_id, tlb_gen) can be used as an identifier for TLB flush actions and will be used in subsequent patches to reliably determine whether all needed TLB flushes have occurred on a given CPU. This patch is split out for ease of review. By itself, it has no real effect other than creating and updating the new variables.

It was historically possible to have two concurrent TLB flushes targetting the same CPU: one initiated locally and one initiated remotely. This can now cause an OOPS in leave_mm() at arch/x86/mm/tlb.c:47: if (this_cpu_read(cpu_tlbstate.state) == TLBSTATE_OK) BUG(); with this call trace: flush_tlb_func_local arch/x86/mm/tlb.c:239 [inline] flush_tlb_mm_range+0x26d/0x370 arch/x86/mm/tlb.c:317 Without reentrancy, this OOPS is impossible: leave_mm() is only called if we're not in TLBSTATE_OK, but then we're unexpectedly in TLBSTATE_OK in leave_mm(). This can be caused by flush_tlb_func_remote() happening between the two checks and calling leave_mm(), resulting in two consecutive leave_mm() calls on the same CPU with no intervening switch_mm() calls. We never saw this OOPS before because the old leave_mm() implementation didn't put us back in TLBSTATE_OK, so the assertion didn't fire. Nadav noticed the reentrancy issue in a different context, but neither of us realized that it caused a problem yet.

Originally, Linux reloaded the LDT whenever the prev mm or the next mm had an LDT. It was changed in 2002 in: 0bbed3beb4f2 ("[PATCH] Thread-Local Storage (TLS) support") (commit from the historical tree), like this: - /* load_LDT, if either the previous or next thread - * has a non-default LDT. + /* + * load the LDT, if the LDT is different: */ - if (next->context.size+prev->context.size) + if (unlikely(prev->context.ldt != next->context.ldt)) load_LDT(&next->context); The current code is unlikely to avoid any LDT reloads, since different mms won't share an LDT. When we redo lazy mode to stop flush IPIs without switching to init_mm, though, the current logic would become incorrect: it will be possible to have real_prev == next but nonetheless have a stale LDT descriptor. Simplify the code to update LDTR if either the previous or the next mm has an LDT, i.e. effectively restore the historical logic.. While we're at it, clean up the code by moving all the ifdeffery to a header where it belongs.

Lazy TLB state is currently managed in a rather baroque manner. AFAICT, there are three possible states: - Non-lazy. This means that we're running a user thread or a kernel thread that has called use_mm(). current->mm == current->active_mm == cpu_tlbstate.active_mm and cpu_tlbstate.state == TLBSTATE_OK. - Lazy with user mm. We're running a kernel thread without an mm and we're borrowing an mm_struct. We have current->mm == NULL, current->active_mm == cpu_tlbstate.active_mm, cpu_tlbstate.state != TLBSTATE_OK (i.e. TLBSTATE_LAZY or 0). The current cpu is set in mm_cpumask(current->active_mm). CR3 points to current->active_mm->pgd. The TLB is up to date. - Lazy with init_mm. This happens when we call leave_mm(). We have current->mm == NULL, current->active_mm == cpu_tlbstate.active_mm, but that mm is only relelvant insofar as the scheduler is tracking it for refcounting. cpu_tlbstate.state != TLBSTATE_OK. The current cpu is clear in mm_cpumask(current->active_mm). CR3 points to swapper_pg_dir, i.e. init_mm->pgd. This patch simplifies the situation. Other than perf, x86 stops caring about current->active_mm at all. We have cpu_tlbstate.loaded_mm pointing to the mm that CR3 references. The TLB is always up to date for that mm. leave_mm() just switches us to init_mm. There are no longer any special cases for mm_cpumask, and switch_mm() switches mms without worrying about laziness. After this patch, cpu_tlbstate.state serves only to tell the TLB flush code whether it may switch to init_mm instead of doing a normal flush. This makes fairly extensive changes to xen_exit_mmap(), which used to look a bit like black magic. Perf is unchanged. With or without this change, perf may behave a bit erratically if it tries to read user memory in kernel thread context. We should build on this patch to teach perf to never look at user memory when cpu_tlbstate.loaded_mm != current->mm.

The UP asm/tlbflush.h generates somewhat nicer code than the SMP version. Aside from that, it's fallen quite a bit behind the SMP code: - flush_tlb_mm_range() didn't flush individual pages if the range was small. - The lazy TLB code was much weaker. This usually wouldn't matter, but, if a kernel thread flushed its lazy "active_mm" more than once (due to reclaim or similar), it wouldn't be unlazied and would instead pointlessly flush repeatedly. - Tracepoints were missing. Aside from that, simply having the UP code around was a maintanence burden, since it means that any change to the TLB flush code had to make sure not to break it. Simplify everything by deleting the UP code.

Now there's only one copy of the local tlb flush logic for non-kernel pages on SMP kernels. The only functional change is that arch_tlbbatch_flush() will now leave_mm() on the local CPU if that CPU is in the batch and is in TLBSTATE_LAZY mode.

The local flush path is very similar to the remote flush path. Merge them. This is intended to make no difference to behavior whatsoever. It removes some code and will make future changes to the flushing mechanics simpler. This patch does remove one small optimization: flush_tlb_mm_range() now has an unconditional smp_mb() instead of using MOV to CR3 or INVLPG as a full barrier when applicable. I think this is okay for a few reasons. First, smp_mb() is quite cheap compared to the cost of a TLB flush. Second, this rearrangement makes a bigger optimization available: with some work on the SMP function call code, we could do the local and remote flushes in parallel. Third, I'm planning a rework of the TLB flush algorithm that will require an atomic operation at the beginning of each flush, and that operation will replace the smp_mb().

On a remote TLB flush, we leave_mm() if we're TLBSTATE_LAZY. For a local flush_tlb_mm_range(), we leave_mm() if !current->mm. These are approximately the same condition -- the scheduler sets lazy TLB mode when switching to a thread with no mm. I'm about to merge the local and remote flush code, but for ease of verifying and bisecting the patch, I want the local and remote flush behavior to match first. This patch changes the local code to match the remote code.

Rather than passing all the contents of flush_tlb_info to flush_tlb_others(), pass a pointer to the structure directly. For consistency, this also removes the unnecessary cpu parameter from uv_flush_tlb_others() to make its signature match the other *flush_tlb_others() functions. This serves two purposes: - It will dramatically simplify future patches that change struct flush_tlb_info, which I'm planning to do. - struct flush_tlb_info is an adequate description of what to do for a local flush, too, so by reusing it we can remove duplicated code between local and remove flushes in a future patch.

try_to_unmap_flush() used to open-code a rather x86-centric flush sequence: local_flush_tlb() + flush_tlb_others(). Rearrange the code so that the arch (only x86 for now) provides arch_tlbbatch_add_mm() and arch_tlbbatch_flush() and the core code calls those functions instead. I'll want this for x86 because, to enable address space ids, I can't support the flush_tlb_others() mode used by exising try_to_unmap_flush() implementation with good performance. I can support the new API fairly easily, though. I imagine that other architectures may be in a similar position. Architectures with strong remote flush primitives (arm64?) may have even worse performance problems with flush_tlb_others() the way that try_to_unmap_flush() uses it.

flush_tlb_page() was very similar to flush_tlb_mm_range() except that it had a couple of issues: - It was missing an smp_mb() in the case where current->active_mm != mm. (This is a longstanding bug reported by Nadav Amit) - It was missing tracepoints and vm counter updates. The only reason that I can see for keeping it at as a separate function is that it could avoid a few branches that flush_tlb_mm_range() needs to decide to flush just one page. This hardly seems worthwhile. If we decide we want to get rid of those branches again, a better way would be to introduce an __flush_tlb_mm_range() helper and make both flush_tlb_page() and flush_tlb_mm_range() use it.

flush_tlb_page() passes a bogus range to flush_tlb_others() and expects the latter to fix it up. native_flush_tlb_others() has the fixup but Xen's version doesn't. Move the fixup to flush_tlb_others(). AFAICS the only real effect is that, without this fix, Xen would flush everything instead of just the one page on remote vCPUs in when flush_tlb_page() was called.
