      hugetlbfs: use i_mmap_rwsem for more pmd sharing synchronization · c0d0381a
      由 Mike Kravetz 提交于 
      Patch series "hugetlbfs: use i_mmap_rwsem for more synchronization", v2.

While discussing the issue with huge_pte_offset [1], I remembered that
there were more outstanding hugetlb races.  These issues are:

1) For shared pmds, huge PTE pointers returned by huge_pte_alloc can become
   invalid via a call to huge_pmd_unshare by another thread.
2) hugetlbfs page faults can race with truncation causing invalid global
   reserve counts and state.

A previous attempt was made to use i_mmap_rwsem in this manner as
described at [2].  However, those patches were reverted starting with [3]
due to locking issues.

To effectively use i_mmap_rwsem to address the above issues it needs to be
held (in read mode) during page fault processing.  However, during fault
processing we need to lock the page we will be adding.  Lock ordering
requires we take page lock before i_mmap_rwsem.  Waiting until after
taking the page lock is too late in the fault process for the
synchronization we want to do.

To address this lock ordering issue, the following patches change the lock
ordering for hugetlb pages.  This is not too invasive as hugetlbfs
processing is done separate from core mm in many places.  However, I don't
really like this idea.  Much ugliness is contained in the new routine
hugetlb_page_mapping_lock_write() of patch 1.

The only other way I can think of to address these issues is by catching
all the races.  After catching a race, cleanup, backout, retry ...  etc,
as needed.  This can get really ugly, especially for huge page
reservations.  At one time, I started writing some of the reservation
backout code for page faults and it got so ugly and complicated I went
down the path of adding synchronization to avoid the races.  Any other
suggestions would be welcome.

This patch (of 2):

While looking at BUGs associated with invalid huge page map counts, it was
discovered and observed that a huge pte pointer could become 'invalid' and
point to another task's page table.  Consider the following:

A task takes a page fault on a shared hugetlbfs file and calls
huge_pte_alloc to get a ptep.  Suppose the returned ptep points to a
shared pmd.

Now, another task truncates the hugetlbfs file.  As part of truncation, it
unmaps everyone who has the file mapped.  If the range being truncated is
covered by a shared pmd, huge_pmd_unshare will be called.  For all but the
last user of the shared pmd, huge_pmd_unshare will clear the pud pointing
to the pmd.  If the task in the middle of the page fault is not the last
user, the ptep returned by huge_pte_alloc now points to another task's
page table or worse.  This leads to bad things such as incorrect page
map/reference counts or invalid memory references.

To fix, expand the use of i_mmap_rwsem as follows:
- i_mmap_rwsem is held in read mode whenever huge_pmd_share is called.
  huge_pmd_share is only called via huge_pte_alloc, so callers of
  huge_pte_alloc take i_mmap_rwsem before calling.  In addition, callers
  of huge_pte_alloc continue to hold the semaphore until finished with
  the ptep.
- i_mmap_rwsem is held in write mode whenever huge_pmd_unshare is called.

One problem with this scheme is that it requires taking i_mmap_rwsem
before taking the page lock during page faults.  This is not the order
specified in the rest of mm code.  Handling of hugetlbfs pages is mostly
isolated today.  Therefore, we use this alternative locking order for
PageHuge() pages.

         mapping->i_mmap_rwsem
           hugetlb_fault_mutex (hugetlbfs specific page fault mutex)
             page->flags PG_locked (lock_page)

To help with lock ordering issues, hugetlb_page_mapping_lock_write() is
introduced to write lock the i_mmap_rwsem associated with a page.

In most cases it is easy to get address_space via vma->vm_file->f_mapping.
However, in the case of migration or memory errors for anon pages we do
not have an associated vma.  A new routine _get_hugetlb_page_mapping()
will use anon_vma to get address_space in these cases.

      mm: pagewalk: add 'depth' parameter to pte_hole · b7a16c7a
      由 Steven Price 提交于 
      The pte_hole() callback is called at multiple levels of the page tables.
Code dumping the kernel page tables needs to know what at what depth the
missing entry is.  Add this is an extra parameter to pte_hole().  When the
depth isn't know (e.g.  processing a vma) then -1 is passed.

The depth that is reported is the actual level where the entry is missing
(ignoring any folding that is in place), i.e.  any levels where
PTRS_PER_P?D is set to 1 are ignored.

Note that depth starts at 0 for a PGD so that PUD/PMD/PTE retain their
natural numbers as levels 2/3/4.

      mm/migrate.c: add missing flush_dcache_page for non-mapped page migrate · d2b2c6dd
      由 Lars Persson 提交于 
      Our MIPS 1004Kc SoCs were seeing random userspace crashes with SIGILL
and SIGSEGV that could not be traced back to a userspace code bug.  They
had all the magic signs of an I/D cache coherency issue.

Now recently we noticed that the /proc/sys/vm/compact_memory interface
was quite efficient at provoking this class of userspace crashes.

Studying the code in mm/migrate.c there is a distinction made between
migrating a page that is mapped at the instant of migration and one that
is not mapped.  Our problem turned out to be the non-mapped pages.

For the non-mapped page the code performs a copy of the page content and
all relevant meta-data of the page without doing the required D-cache
maintenance.  This leaves dirty data in the D-cache of the CPU and on
the 1004K cores this data is not visible to the I-cache.  A subsequent
page-fault that triggers a mapping of the page will happily serve the
process with potentially stale code.

What about ARM then, this bug should have seen greater exposure? Well
ARM became immune to this flaw back in 2010, see commit c0177800
("ARM: 6379/1: Assume new page cache pages have dirty D-cache").

My proposed fix moves the D-cache maintenance inside move_to_new_page to
make it common for both cases.

      hugetlbfs: fix races and page leaks during migration · cb6acd01
      由 Mike Kravetz 提交于 
      hugetlb pages should only be migrated if they are 'active'.  The
routines set/clear_page_huge_active() modify the active state of hugetlb
pages.

When a new hugetlb page is allocated at fault time, set_page_huge_active
is called before the page is locked.  Therefore, another thread could
race and migrate the page while it is being added to page table by the
fault code.  This race is somewhat hard to trigger, but can be seen by
strategically adding udelay to simulate worst case scheduling behavior.
Depending on 'how' the code races, various BUG()s could be triggered.

To address this issue, simply delay the set_page_huge_active call until
after the page is successfully added to the page table.

Hugetlb pages can also be leaked at migration time if the pages are
associated with a file in an explicitly mounted hugetlbfs filesystem.
For example, consider a two node system with 4GB worth of huge pages
available.  A program mmaps a 2G file in a hugetlbfs filesystem.  It
then migrates the pages associated with the file from one node to
another.  When the program exits, huge page counts are as follows:

  node0
  1024    free_hugepages
  1024    nr_hugepages

  node1
  0       free_hugepages
  1024    nr_hugepages

  Filesystem                         Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
  nodev                              4.0G  2.0G  2.0G  50% /var/opt/hugepool

That is as expected.  2G of huge pages are taken from the free_hugepages
counts, and 2G is the size of the file in the explicitly mounted
filesystem.  If the file is then removed, the counts become:

  node0
  1024    free_hugepages
  1024    nr_hugepages

  node1
  1024    free_hugepages
  1024    nr_hugepages

  Filesystem                         Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
  nodev                              4.0G  2.0G  2.0G  50% /var/opt/hugepool

Note that the filesystem still shows 2G of pages used, while there
actually are no huge pages in use.  The only way to 'fix' the filesystem
accounting is to unmount the filesystem

If a hugetlb page is associated with an explicitly mounted filesystem,
this information in contained in the page_private field.  At migration
time, this information is not preserved.  To fix, simply transfer
page_private from old to new page at migration time if necessary.

There is a related race with removing a huge page from a file and
migration.  When a huge page is removed from the pagecache, the
page_mapping() field is cleared, yet page_private remains set until the
page is actually freed by free_huge_page().  A page could be migrated
while in this state.  However, since page_mapping() is not set the
hugetlbfs specific routine to transfer page_private is not called and we
leak the page count in the filesystem.

To fix that, check for this condition before migrating a huge page.  If
the condition is detected, return EBUSY for the page.

      mm: migrate: don't rely on __PageMovable() of newpage after unlocking it · e0a352fa
      由 David Hildenbrand 提交于 
      We had a race in the old balloon compaction code before b1123ea6
("mm: balloon: use general non-lru movable page feature") refactored it
that became visible after backporting 195a8c43 ("virtio-balloon:
deflate via a page list") without the refactoring.

The bug existed from commit d6d86c0a ("mm/balloon_compaction:
redesign ballooned pages management") till b1123ea6 ("mm: balloon:
use general non-lru movable page feature").  d6d86c0a
("mm/balloon_compaction: redesign ballooned pages management") was
backported to 3.12, so the broken kernels are stable kernels [3.12 -
4.7].

There was a subtle race between dropping the page lock of the newpage in
__unmap_and_move() and checking for __is_movable_balloon_page(newpage).

Just after dropping this page lock, virtio-balloon could go ahead and
deflate the newpage, effectively dequeueing it and clearing PageBalloon,
in turn making __is_movable_balloon_page(newpage) fail.

This resulted in dropping the reference of the newpage via
putback_lru_page(newpage) instead of put_page(newpage), leading to
page->lru getting modified and a !LRU page ending up in the LRU lists.
With 195a8c43 ("virtio-balloon: deflate via a page list")
backported, one would suddenly get corrupted lists in
release_pages_balloon():

- WARNING: CPU: 13 PID: 6586 at lib/list_debug.c:59 __list_del_entry+0xa1/0xd0
- list_del corruption. prev->next should be ffffe253961090a0, but was dead000000000100

Nowadays this race is no longer possible, but it is hidden behind very
ugly handling of __ClearPageMovable() and __PageMovable().

__ClearPageMovable() will not make __PageMovable() fail, only
PageMovable().  So the new check (__PageMovable(newpage)) will still
hold even after newpage was dequeued by virtio-balloon.

If anybody would ever change that special handling, the BUG would be
introduced again.  So instead, make it explicit and use the information
of the original isolated page before migration.

This patch can be backported fairly easy to stable kernels (in contrast
to the refactoring).

      Currently, buffer_migrate_page_norefs() was constantly failing because
buffer_migrate_lock_buffers() grabbed reference on each buffer.  In
fact, there's no reason for buffer_migrate_lock_buffers() to grab any
buffer references as the page is locked during all our operation and
thus nobody can reclaim buffers from the page.

So remove grabbing of buffer references which also makes
buffer_migrate_page_norefs() succeed.

      hugetlbfs: revert "use i_mmap_rwsem for more pmd sharing synchronization" · ddeaab32
      由 Mike Kravetz 提交于 
      This reverts b43a9990

The reverted commit caused issues with migration and poisoning of anon
huge pages.  The LTP move_pages12 test will cause an "unable to handle
kernel NULL pointer" BUG would occur with stack similar to:

  RIP: 0010:down_write+0x1b/0x40
  Call Trace:
    migrate_pages+0x81f/0xb90
    __ia32_compat_sys_migrate_pages+0x190/0x190
    do_move_pages_to_node.isra.53.part.54+0x2a/0x50
    kernel_move_pages+0x566/0x7b0

    do_syscall_64+0x5b/0x180
    entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xa9

The purpose of the reverted patch was to fix some long existing races
with huge pmd sharing.  It used i_mmap_rwsem for this purpose with the
idea that this could also be used to address truncate/page fault races
with another patch.  Further analysis has determined that i_mmap_rwsem
can not be used to address all these hugetlbfs synchronization issues.
Therefore, revert this patch while working an another approach to the
underlying issues.

      mm: treewide: remove unused address argument from pte_alloc functions · 4cf58924
      由 Joel Fernandes (Google) 提交于 
      Patch series "Add support for fast mremap".

This series speeds up the mremap(2) syscall by copying page tables at
the PMD level even for non-THP systems.  There is concern that the extra
'address' argument that mremap passes to pte_alloc may do something
subtle architecture related in the future that may make the scheme not
work.  Also we find that there is no point in passing the 'address' to
pte_alloc since its unused.  This patch therefore removes this argument
tree-wide resulting in a nice negative diff as well.  Also ensuring
along the way that the enabled architectures do not do anything funky
with the 'address' argument that goes unnoticed by the optimization.

Build and boot tested on x86-64.  Build tested on arm64.  The config
enablement patch for arm64 will be posted in the future after more
testing.

The changes were obtained by applying the following Coccinelle script.
(thanks Julia for answering all Coccinelle questions!).
Following fix ups were done manually:
* Removal of address argument from  pte_fragment_alloc
* Removal of pte_alloc_one_fast definitions from m68k and microblaze.

// Options: --include-headers --no-includes
// Note: I split the 'identifier fn' line, so if you are manually
// running it, please unsplit it so it runs for you.

      hugetlbfs: use i_mmap_rwsem for more pmd sharing synchronization · b43a9990
      由 Mike Kravetz 提交于 
      While looking at BUGs associated with invalid huge page map counts, it was
discovered and observed that a huge pte pointer could become 'invalid' and
point to another task's page table.  Consider the following:

A task takes a page fault on a shared hugetlbfs file and calls
huge_pte_alloc to get a ptep.  Suppose the returned ptep points to a
shared pmd.

Now, another task truncates the hugetlbfs file.  As part of truncation, it
unmaps everyone who has the file mapped.  If the range being truncated is
covered by a shared pmd, huge_pmd_unshare will be called.  For all but the
last user of the shared pmd, huge_pmd_unshare will clear the pud pointing
to the pmd.  If the task in the middle of the page fault is not the last
user, the ptep returned by huge_pte_alloc now points to another task's
page table or worse.  This leads to bad things such as incorrect page
map/reference counts or invalid memory references.

To fix, expand the use of i_mmap_rwsem as follows:

- i_mmap_rwsem is held in read mode whenever huge_pmd_share is called.
  huge_pmd_share is only called via huge_pte_alloc, so callers of
  huge_pte_alloc take i_mmap_rwsem before calling.  In addition, callers
  of huge_pte_alloc continue to hold the semaphore until finished with the
  ptep.

- i_mmap_rwsem is held in write mode whenever huge_pmd_unshare is
  called.
