vma_is_anonymous() relies on ->vm_ops being NULL to detect anonymous VMA. This is unreliable as ->mmap may not set ->vm_ops.

The vm_area_struct is one of the most fundamental memory management objects, but the management of it is entirely open-coded evertwhere, ranging from allocation and freeing (using kmem_cache_[z]alloc and kmem_cache_free) to initializing all the fields. We want to unify this in order to end up having some unified initialization of the vmas, and the first step to this is to at least have basic allocation functions. Right now those functions are literally just wrappers around the kmem_cache_*() calls. This is a purely mechanical conversion: # new vma: kmem_cache_zalloc(vm_area_cachep, GFP_KERNEL) -> vm_area_alloc() # copy old vma kmem_cache_alloc(vm_area_cachep, GFP_KERNEL) -> vm_area_dup(old) # free vma kmem_cache_free(vm_area_cachep, vma) -> vm_area_free(vma) to the point where the old vma passed in to the vm_area_dup() function isn't even used yet (because I've left all the old manual initialization alone).

Moving zero_resv_unavail before memmap_init_zone(), caused a regression on x86-32. The cause is that we access struct pages before they are allocated when CONFIG_FLAT_NODE_MEM_MAP is used. free_area_init_nodes() zero_resv_unavail() mm_zero_struct_page(pfn_to_page(pfn)); <- struct page is not alloced free_area_init_node() if CONFIG_FLAT_NODE_MEM_MAP alloc_node_mem_map() memblock_virt_alloc_node_nopanic() <- struct page alloced here On the other hand memblock_virt_alloc_node_nopanic() zeroes all the memory that it returns, so we do not need to do zero_resv_unavail() here.

In preparation for fixing dax-dma-vs-unmap issues, filesystems need to be able to rely on the fact that they will get wakeups on dev_pagemap page-idle events. Introduce MEMORY_DEVICE_FS_DAX and generic_dax_page_free() as common indicator / infrastructure for dax filesytems to require. With this change there are no users of the MEMORY_DEVICE_HOST designation, so remove it. The HMM sub-system extended dev_pagemap to arrange a callback when a dev_pagemap managed page is freed. Since a dev_pagemap page is free / idle when its reference count is 1 it requires an additional branch to check the page-type at put_page() time. Given put_page() is a hot-path we do not want to incur that check if HMM is not in use, so a static branch is used to avoid that overhead when not necessary. Now, the FS_DAX implementation wants to reuse this mechanism for receiving dev_pagemap ->page_free() callbacks. Rework the HMM-specific static-key into a generic mechanism that either HMM or FS_DAX code paths can enable. For ARCH=um builds, and any other arch that lacks ZONE_DEVICE support, care must be taken to compile out the DEV_PAGEMAP_OPS infrastructure. However, we still need to support FS_DAX in the FS_DAX_LIMITED case implemented by the s390/dcssblk driver.

Many places in drivers/ file systems, error was handled in a common way like below: ret = (ret == -ENOMEM) ? VM_FAULT_OOM : VM_FAULT_SIGBUS; vmf_error() will replace this and return vm_fault_t type err. A lot of drivers and filesystems currently have a rather complex mapping of errno-to-VM_FAULT code. We have been able to eliminate a lot of it by just returning VM_FAULT codes directly from functions which are called exclusively from the fault handling path. Some functions can be called both from the fault handler and other context which are expecting an errno, so they have to continue to return an errno. Some users still need to choose different behaviour for different errnos, but vmf_error() captures the essential error translation that's common to all users, and those that need to handle additional errors can handle them first.

proc_pid_cmdline_read() and environ_read() directly access the target process' VM to retrieve the command line and environment. If this process remaps these areas onto a file via mmap(), the requesting process may experience various issues such as extra delays if the underlying device is slow to respond. Let's simply refuse to access file-backed areas in these functions. For this we add a new FOLL_ANON gup flag that is passed to all calls to access_remote_vm(). The code already takes care of such failures (including unmapped areas). Accesses via /proc/pid/mem were not changed though. This was assigned CVE-2018-1120. Note for stable backports: the patch may apply to kernels prior to 4.11 but silently miss one location; it must be checked that no call to access_remote_vm() keeps zero as the last argument.

Patch series "mm/cma: manage the memory of the CMA area by using the ZONE_MOVABLE", v2. 0. History This patchset is the follow-up of the discussion about the "Introduce ZONE_CMA (v7)" [1]. Please reference it if more information is needed. 1. What does this patch do? This patch changes the management way for the memory of the CMA area in the MM subsystem. Currently the memory of the CMA area is managed by the zone where their pfn is belong to. However, this approach has some problems since MM subsystem doesn't have enough logic to handle the situation that different characteristic memories are in a single zone. To solve this issue, this patch try to manage all the memory of the CMA area by using the MOVABLE zone. In MM subsystem's point of view, characteristic of the memory on the MOVABLE zone and the memory of the CMA area are the same. So, managing the memory of the CMA area by using the MOVABLE zone will not have any problem. 2. Motivation There are some problems with current approach. See following. Although these problem would not be inherent and it could be fixed without this conception change, it requires many hooks addition in various code path and it would be intrusive to core MM and would be really error-prone. Therefore, I try to solve them with this new approach. Anyway, following is the problems of the current implementation. o CMA memory utilization First, following is the freepage calculation logic in MM. - For movable allocation: freepage = total freepage - For unmovable allocation: freepage = total freepage - CMA freepage Freepages on the CMA area is used after the normal freepages in the zone where the memory of the CMA area is belong to are exhausted. At that moment that the number of the normal freepages is zero, so - For movable allocation: freepage = total freepage = CMA freepage - For unmovable allocation: freepage = 0 If unmovable allocation comes at this moment, allocation request would fail to pass the watermark check and reclaim is started. After reclaim, there would exist the normal freepages so freepages on the CMA areas would not be used. FYI, there is another attempt [2] trying to solve this problem in lkml. And, as far as I know, Qualcomm also has out-of-tree solution for this problem. Useless reclaim: There is no logic to distinguish CMA pages in the reclaim path. Hence, CMA page is reclaimed even if the system just needs the page that can be usable for the kernel allocation. Atomic allocation failure: This is also related to the fallback allocation policy for the memory of the CMA area. Consider the situation that the number of the normal freepages is *zero* since the bunch of the movable allocation requests come. Kswapd would not be woken up due to following freepage calculation logic. - For movable allocation: freepage = total freepage = CMA freepage If atomic unmovable allocation request comes at this moment, it would fails due to following logic. - For unmovable allocation: freepage = total freepage - CMA freepage = 0 It was reported by Aneesh [3]. Useless compaction: Usual high-order allocation request is unmovable allocation request and it cannot be served from the memory of the CMA area. In compaction, migration scanner try to migrate the page in the CMA area and make high-order page there. As mentioned above, it cannot be usable for the unmovable allocation request so it's just waste. 3. Current approach and new approach Current approach is that the memory of the CMA area is managed by the zone where their pfn is belong to. However, these memory should be distinguishable since they have a strong limitation. So, they are marked as MIGRATE_CMA in pageblock flag and handled specially. However, as mentioned in section 2, the MM subsystem doesn't have enough logic to deal with this special pageblock so many problems raised. New approach is that the memory of the CMA area is managed by the MOVABLE zone. MM already have enough logic to deal with special zone like as HIGHMEM and MOVABLE zone. So, managing the memory of the CMA area by the MOVABLE zone just naturally work well because constraints for the memory of the CMA area that the memory should always be migratable is the same with the constraint for the MOVABLE zone. There is one side-effect for the usability of the memory of the CMA area. The use of MOVABLE zone is only allowed for a request with GFP_HIGHMEM && GFP_MOVABLE so now the memory of the CMA area is also only allowed for this gfp flag. Before this patchset, a request with GFP_MOVABLE can use them. IMO, It would not be a big issue since most of GFP_MOVABLE request also has GFP_HIGHMEM flag. For example, file cache page and anonymous page. However, file cache page for blockdev file is an exception. Request for it has no GFP_HIGHMEM flag. There is pros and cons on this exception. In my experience, blockdev file cache pages are one of the top reason that causes cma_alloc() to fail temporarily. So, we can get more guarantee of cma_alloc() success by discarding this case. Note that there is no change in admin POV since this patchset is just for internal implementation change in MM subsystem. Just one minor difference for admin is that the memory stat for CMA area will be printed in the MOVABLE zone. That's all. 4.

The plan for these patches is to introduce the typedef, initially just as documentation ("These functions should return a VM_FAULT_ status"). We'll trickle the patches to individual drivers/filesystems in through the maintainers, as far as possible. Then we'll change the typedef to an unsigned int and break the compilation of any unconverted drivers/filesystems. vmf_insert_page(), vmf_insert_mixed() and vmf_insert_pfn() are three newly added functions. The various drivers/filesystems where return value of fault(), huge_fault(), page_mkwrite() and pfn_mkwrite() get converted, will need them. These functions will return correct VM_FAULT_ code based on err value. We've had bugs before where drivers returned -EFOO. And we have this silly inefficiency where vm_insert_xxx() return an errno which (afaict) every driver then converts into a VM_FAULT code. In many cases drivers failed to return correct VM_FAULT code value despite of vm_insert_xxx() fails. We have indentified and clean up all those existing bugs and silly inefficiencies in driver/filesystems by adding these three new inline wrappers. As mentioned above, we will trickle those patches to individual drivers/filesystems in through maintainers after these three wrapper functions are merged. Eventually we can convert vm_insert_xxx() into vmf_insert_xxx() and remove these inline wrappers, but these are a good intermediate step.

Thanks to commit 4b3ef9da ("mm/swap: split swap cache into 64MB trunks"), after swapoff the address_space associated with the swap device will be freed. So page_mapping() users which may touch the address_space need some kind of mechanism to prevent the address_space from being freed during accessing. The dcache flushing functions (flush_dcache_page(), etc) in architecture specific code may access the address_space of swap device for anonymous pages in swap cache via page_mapping() function. But in some cases there are no mechanisms to prevent the swap device from being swapoff, for example, CPU1 CPU2 __get_user_pages() swapoff() flush_dcache_page() mapping = page_mapping() ... exit_swap_address_space() ... kvfree(spaces) mapping_mapped(mapping) The address space may be accessed after being freed. But from cachetlb.txt and Russell King, flush_dcache_page() only care about file cache pages, for anonymous pages, flush_anon_page() should be used. The implementation of flush_dcache_page() in all architectures follows this too. They will check whether page_mapping() is NULL and whether mapping_mapped() is true to determine whether to flush the dcache immediately. And they will use interval tree (mapping->i_mmap) to find all user space mappings. While mapping_mapped() and mapping->i_mmap isn't used by anonymous pages in swap cache at all. So, to fix the race between swapoff and flush dcache, __page_mapping() is add to return the address_space for file cache pages and NULL otherwise. All page_mapping() invoking in flush dcache functions are replaced with page_mapping_file().

ADI is a new feature supported on SPARC M7 and newer processors to allow hardware to catch rogue accesses to memory. ADI is supported for data fetches only and not instruction fetches. An app can enable ADI on its data pages, set version tags on them and use versioned addresses to access the data pages. Upper bits of the address contain the version tag. On M7 processors, upper four bits (bits 63-60) contain the version tag. If a rogue app attempts to access ADI enabled data pages, its access is blocked and processor generates an exception. Please see Documentation/sparc/adi.txt for further details. This patch extends mprotect to enable ADI (TSTATE.mcde), enable/disable MCD (Memory Corruption Detection) on selected memory ranges, enable TTE.mcd in PTEs, return ADI parameters to userspace and save/restore ADI version tags on page swap out/in or migration. ADI is not enabled by default for any task. A task must explicitly enable ADI on a memory range and set version tag for ADI to be effective for the task.

Several users of unmap_mapping_range() would prefer to express their range in pages rather than bytes. Unfortuately, on a 32-bit kernel, you have to remember to cast your page number to a 64-bit type before shifting it, and four places in the current tree didn't remember to do that. That's a sign of a bad interface. Conveniently, unmap_mapping_range() actually converts from bytes into pages, so hoist the guts of unmap_mapping_range() into a new function unmap_mapping_pages() and convert the callers which want to use pages.

Patch series "introduce get_user_pages_longterm()", v2. Here is a new get_user_pages api for cases where a driver intends to keep an elevated page count indefinitely. This is distinct from usages like iov_iter_get_pages where the elevated page counts are transient. The iov_iter_get_pages cases immediately turn around and submit the pages to a device driver which will put_page when the i/o operation completes (under kernel control). In the longterm case userspace is responsible for dropping the page reference at some undefined point in the future. This is untenable for filesystem-dax case where the filesystem is in control of the lifetime of the block / page and needs reasonable limits on how long it can wait for pages in a mapping to become idle. Fixing filesystems to actually wait for dax pages to be idle before blocks from a truncate/hole-punch operation are repurposed is saved for a later patch series. Also, allowing longterm registration of dax mappings is a future patch series that introduces a "map with lease" semantic where the kernel can revoke a lease and force userspace to drop its page references. I have also tagged these for -stable to purposely break cases that might assume that longterm memory registrations for filesystem-dax mappings were supported by the kernel. The behavior regression this policy change implies is one of the reasons we maintain the "dax enabled. Warning: EXPERIMENTAL, use at your own risk" notification when mounting a filesystem in dax mode. It is worth noting the device-dax interface does not suffer the same constraints since it does not support file space management operations like hole-punch. This patch (of 4): Until there is a solution to the dma-to-dax vs truncate problem it is not safe to allow long standing memory registrations against filesytem-dax vmas. Device-dax vmas do not have this problem and are explicitly allowed. This is temporary until a "memory registration with layout-lease" mechanism can be implemented for the affected sub-systems (RDMA and V4L2).

Patch series "Speed up page cache truncation", v1. When rebasing our enterprise distro to a newer kernel (from 4.4 to 4.12) we have noticed a regression in bonnie++ benchmark when deleting files. Eventually we have tracked this down to a fact that page cache truncation got slower by about 10%. There were both gains and losses in the above interval of kernels but we have been able to identify that commit 83929372 ("filemap: prepare find and delete operations for huge pages") caused about 10% regression on its own. After some investigation it didn't seem easily possible to fix the regression while maintaining the THP in page cache functionality so we've decided to optimize the page cache truncation path instead to make up for the change. This series is a result of that effort. Patch 1 is an easy speedup of cancel_dirty_page(). Patches 2-6 refactor page cache truncation code so that it is easier to batch radix tree operations. Patch 7 implements batching of deletes from the radix tree which more than makes up for the original regression. This patch (of 7): cancel_dirty_page() does quite some work even for clean pages (fetching of mapping, locking of memcg, atomic bit op on page flags) so it accounts for ~2.5% of cost of truncation of a clean page. That is not much but still dumb for something we don't need at all. Check whether a page is actually dirty and avoid any work if not.
