In support of providing struct page for large persistent memory
capacities, use struct vmem_altmap to change the default policy for
allocating memory for the memmap array.  The default vmemmap_populate()
allocates page table storage area from the page allocator.  Given
persistent memory capacities relative to DRAM it may not be feasible to
store the memmap in 'System Memory'.  Instead vmem_altmap represents
pre-allocated "device pages" to satisfy vmemmap_alloc_block_buf()
requests.

There are several scenarios where we need to retrieve and update
metadata associated with a given devm_memremap_pages() mapping, and the
only lookup key available is a pfn in the range:

1/ We want to augment vmemmap_populate() (called via arch_add_memory())
   to allocate memmap storage from pre-allocated pages reserved by the
   device driver.  At vmemmap_alloc_block_buf() time it grabs device pages
   rather than page allocator pages.  This is in support of
   devm_memremap_pages() mappings where the memmap is too large to fit in
   main memory (i.e. large persistent memory devices).

2/ Taking a reference against the mapping when inserting device pages
   into the address_space radix of a given inode.  This facilitates
   unmap_mapping_range() and truncate_inode_pages() operations when the
   driver is tearing down the mapping.

3/ get_user_pages() operations on ZONE_DEVICE memory require taking a
   reference against the mapping so that the driver teardown path can
   revoke and drain usage of device pages.

For the purpose of communicating the optional presence of a 'struct
page' for the pfn returned from ->direct_access(), introduce a type that
encapsulates a page-frame-number plus flags.  These flags contain the
historical "page_link" encoding for a scatterlist entry, but can also
denote "device memory".  Where "device memory" is a set of pfns that are
not part of the kernel's linear mapping by default, but are accessed via
the same memory controller as ram.

The motivation for this new type is large capacity persistent memory
that needs struct page entries in the 'memmap' to support 3rd party DMA
(i.e.  O_DIRECT I/O with a persistent memory source/target).  However,
we also need it in support of maintaining a list of mapped inodes which
need to be unmapped at driver teardown or freeze_bdev() time.

To date, we have implemented two I/O usage models for persistent memory,
PMEM (a persistent "ram disk") and DAX (mmap persistent memory into
userspace).  This series adds a third, DAX-GUP, that allows DAX mappings
to be the target of direct-i/o.  It allows userspace to coordinate
DMA/RDMA from/to persistent memory.

The implementation leverages the ZONE_DEVICE mm-zone that went into
4.3-rc1 (also discussed at kernel summit) to flag pages that are owned
and dynamically mapped by a device driver.  The pmem driver, after
mapping a persistent memory range into the system memmap via
devm_memremap_pages(), arranges for DAX to distinguish pfn-only versus
page-backed pmem-pfns via flags in the new pfn_t type.

The DAX code, upon seeing a PFN_DEV+PFN_MAP flagged pfn, flags the
resulting pte(s) inserted into the process page tables with a new
_PAGE_DEVMAP flag.  Later, when get_user_pages() is walking ptes it keys
off _PAGE_DEVMAP to pin the device hosting the page range active.
Finally, get_page() and put_page() are modified to take references
against the device driver established page mapping.

Finally, this need for "struct page" for persistent memory requires
memory capacity to store the memmap array.  Given the memmap array for a
large pool of persistent may exhaust available DRAM introduce a
mechanism to allocate the memmap from persistent memory.  The new
"struct vmem_altmap *" parameter to devm_memremap_pages() enables
arch_add_memory() to use reserved pmem capacity rather than the page
allocator.

An infinite loop of PMD faults was observed when attempted to mlock() a
private read-only PMD mmap'd range of a DAX file.

__dax_pmd_fault() simply returns with VM_FAULT_FALLBACK when falling
back to PTE on COW.  However, __handle_mm_fault() returns without
falling back to handle_pte_fault() because a PMD map is present in this
case.

Change __dax_pmd_fault() to split the PMD map, if present, before
returning with VM_FAULT_FALLBACK.

Prior to this change DAX PMD mappings that were made read-only were
never able to be made writable again.  This is because the code in
insert_pfn_pmd() that calls pmd_mkdirty() and pmd_mkwrite() would skip
these calls if the PMD already existed in the page table.

Instead, if we are doing a write always mark the PMD entry as dirty and
writeable.  Without this code we can get into a condition where we mark
the PMD as read-only, and then on a subsequent write fault we get into
an infinite loop of PMD faults where we try unsuccessfully to make the
PMD writeable.

The DAX implementation needs to protect new calls to ->direct_access()

block device being disabled.  Use blk_queue_enter()/blk_queue_exit() to
hold off blk_cleanup_queue() from proceeding, or otherwise fail new
mapping requests if the request_queue is being torn down.

This also introduces blk_dax_ctl to simplify the interface from fs/dax.c

Both __dax_pmd_fault, and clear_pmem() were taking special steps to
clear memory a page at a time to take advantage of non-temporal
clear_page() implementations.  However, x86_64 does not use non-temporal
instructions for clear_page(), and arch_clear_pmem() was always
incurring the cost of __arch_wb_cache_pmem().

Clean up the assumption that doing clear_pmem() a page at a time is more
performant.

Sasha Levin has reported KASAN out-of-bounds bug[1].  It points to "if
(!is_swap_pte(pte[i]))" in unfreeze_page_vma() as a problematic access.

The cause is that split_huge_page() doesn't handle THP correctly if it's
not allingned to PMD boundary.  It can happen after mremap().

Test-case (not always triggers the bug):

	#define _GNU_SOURCE
	#include <stdio.h>
	#include <stdlib.h>
	#include <sys/mman.h>

	#define MB (1024UL*1024)
	#define SIZE (2*MB)
	#define BASE ((void *)0x400000000000)

	int main()
	{
		char *p;

		p = mmap(BASE, SIZE, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
				MAP_FIXED | MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_POPULATE,
				-1, 0);
		if (p == MAP_FAILED)
			perror("mmap"), exit(1);
		p = mremap(BASE, SIZE, SIZE, MREMAP_FIXED | MREMAP_MAYMOVE,
				BASE + SIZE + 8192);
		if (p == MAP_FAILED)
			perror("mremap"), exit(1);
		system("echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/split_huge_pages");
		return 0;
	}

The patch fixes freeze and unfreeze paths to handle page table boundary
crossing.

It also makes mapcount vs count check in split_huge_page_to_list()
stricter:
 - after freeze we don't expect any subpage mapped as we remove them
   from rmap when setting up migration entries;
 - count must be 1, meaning only caller has reference to the page;

We don't need to split THP page when MADV_FREE syscall is called if
[start, len] is aligned with THP size.  The split could be done when VM
decide to free it in reclaim path if memory pressure is heavy.  With
that, we could avoid unnecessary THP split.

For the feature, this patch changes pte dirtness marking logic of THP.
Now, it marks every ptes of pages dirty unconditionally in splitting,
which makes MADV_FREE void.  So, instead, this patch propagates pmd
dirtiness to all pages via PG_dirty and restores pte dirtiness from
PG_dirty.  With this, if pmd is clean(ie, MADV_FREEed) when split
happens(e,g, shrink_page_list), all of pages are clean too so we could
discard them.

The MADV_FREE patchset changes page reclaim to simply free a clean
anonymous page with no dirty ptes, instead of swapping it out; but KSM
uses clean write-protected ptes to reference the stable ksm page.  So be
sure to mark that page dirty, so it's never mistakenly discarded.

MADV_FREE is a hint that it's okay to discard pages if there is memory
pressure and we use reclaimers(ie, kswapd and direct reclaim) to free
them so there is no value keeping them in the active anonymous LRU so
this patch moves them to inactive LRU list's head.

This means that MADV_FREE-ed pages which were living on the inactive
list are reclaimed first because they are more likely to be cold rather
than recently active pages.

An arguable issue for the approach would be whether we should put the
page to the head or tail of the inactive list.  I chose head because the
kernel cannot make sure it's really cold or warm for every MADV_FREE
usecase but at least we know it's not *hot*, so landing of inactive head
would be a comprimise for various usecases.

This fixes suboptimal behavior of MADV_FREE when pages living on the
active list will sit there for a long time even under memory pressure
while the inactive list is reclaimed heavily.  This basically breaks the
whole purpose of using MADV_FREE to help the system to free memory which
is might not be used.

When I test below piece of code with 12 processes(ie, 512M * 12 = 6G
consume) on my (3G ram + 12 cpu + 8G swap, the madvise_free is
siginficat slower (ie, 2x times) than madvise_dontneed.

     loop = 5;
     mmap(512M);
     while (loop--) {
             memset(512M);
             madvise(MADV_FREE or MADV_DONTNEED);
     }

The reason is lots of swapin.

1) dontneed: 1,612 swapin
2) madvfree: 879,585 swapin

If we find hinted pages were already swapped out when syscall is called,
it's pointless to keep the swapped-out pages in pte.  Instead, let's
free the cold page because swapin is more expensive than (alloc page +
zeroing).

With this patch, it reduced swapin from 879,585 to 1,878 so elapsed time

Linux doesn't have an ability to free pages lazy while other OS already
have been supported that named by madvise(MADV_FREE).

The gain is clear that kernel can discard freed pages rather than
swapping out or OOM if memory pressure happens.

Without memory pressure, freed pages would be reused by userspace
without another additional overhead(ex, page fault + allocation +
zeroing).

Jason Evans said:

: Facebook has been using MAP_UNINITIALIZED
: (https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/1/18/308) in some of its applications for

: Please integrate MADV_FREE; many people will benefit substantially.

How it works:

When madvise syscall is called, VM clears dirty bit of ptes of the
range.  If memory pressure happens, VM checks dirty bit of page table
and if it found still "clean", it means it's a "lazyfree pages" so VM
could discard the page instead of swapping out.  Once there was store
operation for the page before VM peek a page to reclaim, dirty bit is
set so VM can swap out the page instead of discarding.

One thing we should notice is that basically, MADV_FREE relies on dirty
bit in page table entry to decide whether VM allows to discard the page
or not.  IOW, if page table entry includes marked dirty bit, VM
shouldn't discard the page.

However, as a example, if swap-in by read fault happens, page table
entry doesn't have dirty bit so MADV_FREE could discard the page
wrongly.

For avoiding the problem, MADV_FREE did more checks with PageDirty and
PageSwapCache.  It worked out because swapped-in page lives on swap
cache and since it is evicted from the swap cache, the page has PG_dirty
flag.  So both page flags check effectively prevent wrong discarding by
MADV_FREE.

However, a problem in above logic is that swapped-in page has PG_dirty
still after they are removed from swap cache so VM cannot consider the
page as freeable any more even if madvise_free is called in future.

Look at below example for detail.

    ptr = malloc();
    memset(ptr);
    ..
    ..
    .. heavy memory pressure so all of pages are swapped out
    ..
    ..
    var = *ptr; -> a page swapped-in and could be removed from
                   swapcache. Then, page table doesn't mark
                   dirty bit and page descriptor includes PG_dirty
    ..
    ..
    madvise_free(ptr); -> It doesn't clear PG_dirty of the page.
    ..
    ..
    ..
    .. heavy memory pressure again.
    .. In this time, VM cannot discard the page because the page
    .. has *PG_dirty*

To solve the problem, this patch clears PG_dirty if only the page is
owned exclusively by current process when madvise is called because
PG_dirty represents ptes's dirtiness in several processes so we could
clear it only if we own it exclusively.

Firstly, heavy users would be general allocators(ex, jemalloc, tcmalloc
and hope glibc supports it) and jemalloc/tcmalloc already have supported
the feature for other OS(ex, FreeBSD)

The use of idr_remove() is forbidden in the callback functions of
idr_for_each().  It is therefore unsafe to call idr_remove in
zram_remove().

This patch moves the call to idr_remove() from zram_remove() to
hot_remove_store().  In the detroy_devices() path, idrs are removed by
idr_destroy().  This solves an use-after-free detected by KASan.

During freeze_page(), we remove the page from rmap.  It munlocks the
page if it was mlocked.  clear_page_mlock() uses thelru cache, which
temporary pins the page.

Let's drain the lru cache before checking page's count vs.  mapcount.
The change makes mlocked page split on first attempt, if it was not
pinned by somebody else.

Both page_referenced() and page_idle_clear_pte_refs_one() assume that
THP can only be mapped with PMD, so there's no reason to look on PTEs
for PageTransHuge() pages.  That's no true anymore: THP can be mapped
with PTEs too.

Before THP refcounting rework, THP was not allowed to cross VMA
boundary.  So, if we have THP and we split it, PG_mlocked can be safely
transferred to small pages.

With new THP refcounting and naive approach to mlocking we can end up
with this scenario:
 1. we have a mlocked THP, which belong to one VM_LOCKED VMA.
 2. the process does munlock() on the *part* of the THP:
      - the VMA is split into two, one of them VM_LOCKED;
      - huge PMD split into PTE table;
      - THP is still mlocked;
 3. split_huge_page():
      - it transfers PG_mlocked to *all* small pages regrardless if it
	blong to any VM_LOCKED VMA.

We probably could munlock() all small pages on split_huge_page(), but I
think we have accounting issue already on step two.

Instead of forbidding mlocked pages altogether, we just avoid mlocking
PTE-mapped THPs and munlock THPs on split_huge_pmd().

This means PTE-mapped THPs will be on normal lru lists and will be split
under memory pressure by vmscan.  After the split vmscan will detect
unevictable small pages and mlock them.

With this approach we shouldn't hit situation like described above.

Currently we don't split huge page on partial unmap.  It's not an ideal
situation.  It can lead to memory overhead.

Furtunately, we can detect partial unmap on page_remove_rmap().  But we
cannot call split_huge_page() from there due to locking context.

It's also counterproductive to do directly from munmap() codepath: in
many cases we will hit this from exit(2) and splitting the huge page
just to free it up in small pages is not what we really want.

The patch introduce deferred_split_huge_page() which put the huge page
into queue for splitting.  The splitting itself will happen when we get
memory pressure via shrinker interface.  The page will be dropped from
list on freeing through compound page destructor.

This patch adds implementation of split_huge_page() for new
refcountings.

Unlike previous implementation, new split_huge_page() can fail if
somebody holds GUP pin on the page.  It also means that pin on page
would prevent it from bening split under you.  It makes situation in
many places much cleaner.

The basic scheme of split_huge_page():

  - Check that sum of mapcounts of all subpage is equal to page_count()
    plus one (caller pin). Foll off with -EBUSY. This way we can avoid
    useless PMD-splits.

  - Freeze the page counters by splitting all PMD and setup migration
    PTEs.

  - Re-check sum of mapcounts against page_count(). Page's counts are
    stable now. -EBUSY if page is pinned.

  - Split compound page.

  - Unfreeze the page by removing migration entries.

Some mm-related BUG_ON()s could trigger from hwpoison code due to recent
changes in thp refcounting rule.  This patch fixes them up.

In the new refcounting, we no longer use tail->_mapcount to keep tail's
refcount, and thereby we can simplify get/put_hwpoison_page().

And another change is that tail's refcount is not transferred to the raw
page during thp split (more precisely, in new rule we don't take
refcount on tail page any more.) So when we need thp split, we have to
transfer the refcount properly to the 4kB soft-offlined page before
migration.

thp split code goes into core code only when precheck
(total_mapcount(head) == page_count(head) - 1) passes to avoid useless
split, where we assume that one refcount is held by the caller of thp
split and the others are taken via mapping.  To meet this assumption,
this patch moves thp split part in soft_offline_page() after
get_any_page().
