devm_memremap_pages() is currently used by the PCI P2PDMA code to create struct page mappings for IO memory. At present, these mappings are created with PAGE_KERNEL which implies setting the PAT bits to be WB. However, on x86, an mtrr register will typically override this and force the cache type to be UC-. In the case firmware doesn't set this register it is effectively WB and will typically result in a machine check exception when it's accessed. Other arches are not currently likely to function correctly seeing they don't have any MTRR registers to fall back on. To solve this, provide a way to specify the pgprot value explicitly to arch_add_memory(). Of the arches that support MEMORY_HOTPLUG: x86_64, and arm64 need a simple change to pass the pgprot_t down to their respective functions which set up the page tables. For x86_32, set the page tables explicitly using _set_memory_prot() (seeing they are already mapped). For ia64, s390 and sh, reject anything but PAGE_KERNEL settings -- this should be fine, for now, seeing these architectures don't support ZONE_DEVICE. A check in __add_pages() is also added to ensure the pgprot parameter was set for all arches.

Patch series "Allow setting caching mode in arch_add_memory() for P2PDMA", v4. Currently, the page tables created using memremap_pages() are always created with the PAGE_KERNEL cacheing mode. However, the P2PDMA code is creating pages for PCI BAR memory which should never be accessed through the cache and instead use either WC or UC. This still works in most cases, on x86, because the MTRR registers typically override the caching settings in the page tables for all of the IO memory to be UC-. However, this tends not to work so well on other arches or some rare x86 machines that have firmware which does not setup the MTRR registers in this way. Instead of this, this series proposes a change to arch_add_memory() to take the pgprot required by the mapping which allows us to explicitly set pagetable entries for P2PDMA memory to UC. This changes is pretty routine for most of the arches: x86_64, arm64 and powerpc simply need to thread the pgprot through to where the page tables are setup. x86_32 unfortunately sets up the page tables at boot so must use _set_memory_prot() to change their caching mode. ia64, s390 and sh don't appear to have an easy way to change the page tables so, for now at least, we just return -EINVAL on such mappings and thus they will not support P2PDMA memory until the work for this is done. This should be fine as they don't yet support ZONE_DEVICE. This patch (of 7): This variable is not used anywhere and should therefore be removed from the structure.

Currently there are many platforms that dont enable ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL but required to define quite similar fallback stubs for special page table entry helpers such as pte_special() and pte_mkspecial(), as they get build in generic MM without a config check. This creates two generic fallback stub definitions for these helpers, eliminating much code duplication. mips platform has a special case where pte_special() and pte_mkspecial() visibility is wider than what ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL enablement requires. This restricts those symbol visibility in order to avoid redefinitions which is now exposed through this new generic stubs and subsequent build failure. arm platform set_pte_at() definition needs to be moved into a C file just to prevent a build failure.

There are many places where all basic VMA access flags (read, write, exec) are initialized or checked against as a group. One such example is during page fault. Existing vma_is_accessible() wrapper already creates the notion of VMA accessibility as a group access permissions. Hence lets just create VM_ACCESS_FLAGS (VM_READ|VM_WRITE|VM_EXEC) which will not only reduce code duplication but also extend the VMA accessibility concept in general.

Commit 944d9fec ("hugetlb: add support for gigantic page allocation at runtime") has added the run-time allocation of gigantic pages. However it actually works only at early stages of the system loading, when the majority of memory is free. After some time the memory gets fragmented by non-movable pages, so the chances to find a contiguous 1GB block are getting close to zero. Even dropping caches manually doesn't help a lot. At large scale rebooting servers in order to allocate gigantic hugepages is quite expensive and complex. At the same time keeping some constant percentage of memory in reserved hugepages even if the workload isn't using it is a big waste: not all workloads can benefit from using 1 GB pages. The following solution can solve the problem: 1) On boot time a dedicated cma area* is reserved. The size is passed as a kernel argument. 2) Run-time allocations of gigantic hugepages are performed using the cma allocator and the dedicated cma area In this case gigantic hugepages can be allocated successfully with a high probability, however the memory isn't completely wasted if nobody is using 1GB hugepages: it can be used for pagecache, anon memory, THPs, etc. * On a multi-node machine a per-node cma area is allocated on each node. Following gigantic hugetlb allocation are using the first available numa node if the mask isn't specified by a user. Usage: 1) configure the kernel to allocate a cma area for hugetlb allocations: pass hugetlb_cma=10G as a kernel argument 2) allocate hugetlb pages as usual, e.g. echo 10 > /sys/kernel/mm/hugepages/hugepages-1048576kB/nr_hugepages If the option isn't enabled or the allocation of the cma area failed, the current behavior of the system is preserved. x86 and arm-64 are covered by this patch, other architectures can be trivially added later.

printk_deferred(), similarly to printk_safe/printk_nmi, does not immediately attempt to print a new message on the consoles, avoiding calls into non-reentrant kernel paths, e.g. scheduler or timekeeping, which potentially can deadlock the system. Those printk() flavors, instead, rely on per-CPU flush irq_work to print messages from safer contexts. For same reasons (recursive scheduler or timekeeping calls) printk() uses per-CPU irq_work in order to wake up user space syslog/kmsg readers. However, only printk_safe/printk_nmi do make sure that per-CPU areas have been initialised and that it's safe to modify per-CPU irq_work. This means that, for instance, should printk_deferred() be invoked "too early", that is before per-CPU areas are initialised, printk_deferred() will perform illegal per-CPU access. Lech Perczak [0] reports that after commit 1b710b1b ("char/random: silence a lockdep splat with printk()") user-space syslog/kmsg readers are not able to read new kernel messages. The reason is printk_deferred() being called too early (as was pointed out by Petr and John). Fix printk_deferred() and do not queue per-CPU irq_work before per-CPU areas are initialized.

It must always be taken with irqs disabled as tasklist_lock can be taken from interrupt context and if wait_pidfd.lock was already taken this would create a lock order inversion. Oleg suggested just disabling irqs where I have added extra calls to wait_pidfd.lock. That should be safe and I think the code will eventually do that. It was rightly pointed out by Christian that sharing the wait_pidfd.lock was a premature optimization. It is also true that my pre-merge window testing was insufficient. So remove the premature optimization and give struct pid a dedicated lock of it's own for struct pid things. I have verified that lockdep sees all 3 paths where we take the new pid->lock and lockdep does not complain. It is my current day dream that one day pid->lock can be used to guard the task lists as well and then the tasklist_lock won't need to be held to deliver signals. That will require taking pid->lock with irqs disabled.

GENMASK() and GENMASK_ULL() are supposed to be called with the high bit as the first argument and the low bit as the second argument. Mixing them will return a mask with zero bits set. Recent commits show getting this wrong is not uncommon, see e.g. commit aa4c0c90 ("net: stmmac: Fix misuses of GENMASK macro") and commit 9bdd7bb3 ("clocksource/drivers/npcm: Fix misuse of GENMASK macro"). To prevent such mistakes from appearing again, add compile time sanity checking to the arguments of GENMASK() and GENMASK_ULL(). If both arguments are known at compile time, and the low bit is higher than the high bit, break the build to detect the mistake immediately. Since GENMASK() is used in declarations, BUILD_BUG_ON_ZERO() must be used instead of BUILD_BUG_ON(). __builtin_constant_p does not evaluate is argument, it only checks if it is a constant or not at compile time, and __builtin_choose_expr does not evaluate the expression that is not chosen. Therefore, GENMASK(x++, 0) does only evaluate x++ once. Commit 95b980d6 ("linux/bits.h: make BIT(), GENMASK(), and friends available in assembly") made the macros in linux/bits.h available in assembly.

filter_irq_stacks() can be used by other tools (e.g. KMSAN), so it needs to be moved to a common location. lib/stackdepot.c seems a good place, as filter_irq_stacks() is usually applied to the output of stack_trace_save().

With CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE, objtool reports: drivers/gpu/drm/i915/gem/i915_gem_execbuffer.o: warning: objtool: i915_gem_execbuffer2_ioctl()+0x5b7: call to gen8_canonical_addr() with UACCESS enabled This means i915_gem_execbuffer2_ioctl() is calling gen8_canonical_addr() from the user_access_begin/end critical region (i.e, with SMAP disabled). While it's probably harmless in this case, in general we like to avoid extra function calls in SMAP-disabled regions because it can open up inadvertent security holes. Fix the warning by changing the sign extension helpers to __always_inline. This convinces GCC to inline gen8_canonical_addr(). The sign extension functions are trivial anyway, so it makes sense to always inline them. With my test optimize-for-size-based config, this actually shrinks the text size of i915_gem_execbuffer.o by 45 bytes -- and no change for vmlinux.

compiletime_assert() uses __LINE__ to create a unique function name. This means that if you have more than one BUILD_BUG_ON() in the same source line (which can happen if they appear e.g. in a macro), then the error message from the compiler might output the wrong condition. For this source file: #include <linux/build_bug.h> #define macro() \ BUILD_BUG_ON(1); \ BUILD_BUG_ON(0); void foo() { macro(); } gcc would output: ./include/linux/compiler.h:350:38: error: call to `__compiletime_assert_9' declared with attribute error: BUILD_BUG_ON failed: 0 _compiletime_assert(condition, msg, __compiletime_assert_, __LINE__) However, it was not the BUILD_BUG_ON(0) that failed, so it should say 1 instead of 0. With this patch, we use __COUNTER__ instead of __LINE__, so each BUILD_BUG_ON() gets a different function name and the correct condition is printed: ./include/linux/compiler.h:350:38: error: call to `__compiletime_assert_0' declared with attribute error: BUILD_BUG_ON failed: 1 _compiletime_assert(condition, msg, __compiletime_assert_, __COUNTER__) Signed-off-by: NVegard Nossum <vegard.nossum@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Reviewed-by: NMasahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com> Reviewed-by: NDaniel Santos <daniel.santos@pobox.com> Cc: Rasmus Villemoes <linux@rasmusvillemoes.dk> Cc: Ian Abbott <abbotti@mev.co.uk> Cc: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200331112637.25047-1-vegard.nossum@oracle.comSigned-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Now that "struct proc_ops" exist we can start putting there stuff which could not fly with VFS "struct file_operations"... Most of fs/proc/inode.c file is dedicated to make open/read/.../close reliable in the event of disappearing /proc entries which usually happens if module is getting removed. Files like /proc/cpuinfo which never disappear simply do not need such protection. Save 2 atomic ops, 1 allocation, 1 free per open/read/close sequence for such "permanent" files. Enable "permanent" flag for /proc/cpuinfo /proc/kmsg /proc/modules /proc/slabinfo /proc/stat /proc/sysvipc/* /proc/swaps More will come once I figure out foolproof way to prevent out module authors from marking their stuff "permanent" for performance reasons when it is not.

If CONFIG_DEVICE_PRIVATE is defined, but neither CONFIG_MEMORY_FAILURE nor CONFIG_MIGRATION, then non_swap_entry() will return 0, meaning that the condition (non_swap_entry(entry) && is_device_private_entry(entry)) in zap_pte_range() will never be true even if the entry is a device private one. Equally any other code depending on non_swap_entry() will not function as expected. I originally spotted this just by looking at the code, I haven't actually observed any problems.

For now, distributions implement advanced udev rules to essentially - Don't online any hotplugged memory (s390x) - Online all memory to ZONE_NORMAL (e.g., most virt environments like hyperv) - Online all memory to ZONE_MOVABLE in case the zone imbalance is taken care of (e.g., bare metal, special virt environments) In summary: All memory is usually onlined the same way, however, the kernel always has to ask user space to come up with the same answer. E.g., Hyper-V always waits for a memory block to get onlined before continuing, otherwise it might end up adding memory faster than onlining it, which can result in strange OOM situations. This waiting slows down adding of a bigger amount of memory. Let's allow to specify a default online_type, not just "online" and "offline". This allows distributions to configure the default online_type when booting up and be done with it. We can now specify "offline", "online", "online_movable" and "online_kernel" via - "memhp_default_state=" on the kernel cmdline - /sys/devices/system/memory/auto_online_blocks just like we are able to specify for a single memory block via /sys/devices/system/memory/memoryX/state Signed-off-by: NDavid Hildenbrand <david@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Reviewed-by: NWei Yang <richard.weiyang@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: NBaoquan He <bhe@redhat.com> Acked-by: NMichal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com> Acked-by: NPankaj Gupta <pankaj.gupta.linux@gmail.com> Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Cc: Oscar Salvador <osalvador@suse.de> Cc: "Rafael J.

Historically, we used the value -1. Just treat 0 as the special case now. Clarify a comment (which was wrong, when we come via device_online() the first time, the online_type would have been 0 / MEM_ONLINE). The default is now always MMOP_OFFLINE. This removes the last user of the manual "-1", which didn't use the enum value. This is a preparation to use the online_type as an array index.

Patch series "mm/memory_hotplug: allow to specify a default online_type", v3. Distributions nowadays use udev rules ([1] [2]) to specify if and how to online hotplugged memory. The rules seem to get more complex with many special cases. Due to the various special cases, CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG_DEFAULT_ONLINE cannot be used. All memory hotplug is handled via udev rules. Every time we hotplug memory, the udev rule will come to the same conclusion. Especially Hyper-V (but also soon virtio-mem) add a lot of memory in separate memory blocks and wait for memory to get onlined by user space before continuing to add more memory blocks (to not add memory faster than it is getting onlined). This of course slows down the whole memory hotplug process. To make the job of distributions easier and to avoid udev rules that get more and more complicated, let's extend the mechanism provided by - /sys/devices/system/memory/auto_online_blocks - "memhp_default_state=" on the kernel cmdline to be able to specify also "online_movable" as well as "online_kernel" === Example /usr/libexec/config-memhotplug === #!/bin/bash VIRT=`systemd-detect-virt --vm` ARCH=`uname -p` sense_virtio_mem() { if [ -d "/sys/bus/virtio/drivers/virtio_mem/" ]; then DEVICES=`find /sys/bus/virtio/drivers/virtio_mem/ -maxdepth 1 -type l | wc -l` if [ $DEVICES != "0" ]; then return 0 fi fi return 1 } if [ ! -e "/sys/devices/system/memory/auto_online_blocks" ]; then echo "Memory hotplug configuration support missing in the kernel" exit 1 fi if grep "memhp_default_state=" /proc/cmdline > /dev/null; then echo "Memory hotplug configuration overridden in kernel cmdline (memhp_default_state=)" exit 1 fi if [ $VIRT == "microsoft" ]; then echo "Detected Hyper-V on $ARCH" # Hyper-V wants all memory in ZONE_NORMAL ONLINE_TYPE="online_kernel" elif sense_virtio_mem; then echo "Detected virtio-mem on $ARCH" # virtio-mem wants all memory in ZONE_NORMAL ONLINE_TYPE="online_kernel" elif [ $ARCH == "s390x" ] || [ $ARCH == "s390" ]; then echo "Detected $ARCH" # standby memory should not be onlined automatically ONLINE_TYPE="offline" elif [ $ARCH == "ppc64" ] || [ $ARCH == "ppc64le" ]; then echo "Detected" $ARCH # PPC64 onlines all hotplugged memory right from the kernel ONLINE_TYPE="offline" elif [ $VIRT == "none" ]; then echo "Detected bare-metal on $ARCH" # Bare metal users expect hotplugged memory to be unpluggable.

Currently, to support subsection aligned memory region adding for pmem, subsection map is added to track which subsection is present. However, config ZONE_DEVICE depends on SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP. It means subsection map only makes sense when SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP enabled. For the classic sparse, it's meaningless. Even worse, it may confuse people when checking code related to the classic sparse. About the classic sparse which doesn't support subsection hotplug, Dan said it's more because the effort and maintenance burden outweighs the benefit. Besides, the current 64 bit ARCHes all enable SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP_ENABLE by default. Combining the above reasons, no need to provide subsection map and the relevant handling for the classic sparse. Let's remove them.

Patch series "mm: drop superfluous section checks when onlining/offlining". Let's drop some superfluous section checks on the onlining/offlining path. This patch (of 3): Since commit c5e79ef5 ("mm/memory_hotplug.c: don't allow to online/offline memory blocks with holes") we have a generic check in offline_pages() that disallows offlining memory blocks with holes. Memory blocks with missing sections are just another variant of these type of blocks. We can stop checking (and especially storing) present sections. A proper error message is now printed why offlining failed. section_count was initially introduced in commit 07681215 ("Driver core: Add section count to memory_block struct") in order to detect when it is okay to remove a memory block. It was used in commit 26bbe7ef ("drivers/base/memory.c: prohibit offlining of memory blocks with missing sections") to disallow offlining memory blocks with missing sections. As we refactored creation/removal of memory devices and have a proper check for holes in place, we can drop the section_count. This also removes a leftover comment regarding the mem_sysfs_mutex, which was removed in commit 848e19ad ("drivers/base/memory.c: drop the mem_sysfs_mutex").

For either swap and page migration, we all use the bit 2 of the entry to identify whether this entry is uffd write-protected. It plays a similar role as the existing soft dirty bit in swap entries but only for keeping the uffd-wp tracking for a specific PTE/PMD. Something special here is that when we want to recover the uffd-wp bit from a swap/migration entry to the PTE bit we'll also need to take care of the _PAGE_RW bit and make sure it's cleared, otherwise even with the _PAGE_UFFD_WP bit we can't trap it at all. In change_pte_range() we do nothing for uffd if the PTE is a swap entry. That can lead to data mismatch if the page that we are going to write protect is swapped out when sending the UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT. This patch also applies/removes the uffd-wp bit even for the swap entries.

Firstly, introduce two new flags MM_CP_UFFD_WP[_RESOLVE] for change_protection() when used with uffd-wp and make sure the two new flags are exclusively used. Then, - For MM_CP_UFFD_WP: apply the _PAGE_UFFD_WP bit and remove _PAGE_RW when a range of memory is write protected by uffd - For MM_CP_UFFD_WP_RESOLVE: remove the _PAGE_UFFD_WP bit and recover _PAGE_RW when write protection is resolved from userspace And use this new interface in mwriteprotect_range() to replace the old MM_CP_DIRTY_ACCT. Do this change for both PTEs and huge PMDs. Then we can start to identify which PTE/PMD is write protected by general (e.g., COW or soft dirty tracking), and which is for userfaultfd-wp. Since we should keep the _PAGE_UFFD_WP when doing pte_modify(), add it into _PAGE_CHG_MASK as well. Meanwhile, since we have this new bit, we can be even more strict when detecting uffd-wp page faults in either do_wp_page() or wp_huge_pmd(). After we're with _PAGE_UFFD_WP, a special case is when a page is both protected by the general COW logic and also userfault-wp. Here the userfault-wp will have higher priority and will be handled first. Only after the uffd-wp bit is cleared on the PTE/PMD will we continue to handle the general COW. These are the steps on what will happen with such a page: 1. CPU accesses write protected shared page (so both protected by general COW and uffd-wp), blocked by uffd-wp first because in do_wp_page we'll handle uffd-wp first, so it has higher priority than general COW. 2. Uffd service thread receives the request, do UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT to remove the uffd-wp bit upon the PTE/PMD. However here we still keep the write bit cleared. Notify the blocked CPU. 3. The blocked CPU resumes the page fault process with a fault retry, during retry it'll notice it was not with the uffd-wp bit this time but it is still write protected by general COW, then it'll go though the COW path in the fault handler, copy the page, apply write bit where necessary, and retry again. 4. The CPU will be able to access this page with write bit set.

change_protection() was used by either the NUMA or mprotect() code, there's one parameter for each of the callers (dirty_accountable and prot_numa). Further, these parameters are passed along the calls: - change_protection_range() - change_p4d_range() - change_pud_range() - change_pmd_range() - ... Now we introduce a flag for change_protect() and all these helpers to replace these parameters. Then we can avoid passing multiple parameters multiple times along the way. More importantly, it'll greatly simplify the work if we want to introduce any new parameters to change_protection(). In the follow up patches, a new parameter for userfaultfd write protection will be introduced. No functional change at all.

Patch series "userfaultfd: write protection support", v6. Overview ======== The uffd-wp work was initialized by Shaohua Li [1], and later continued by Andrea [2]. This series is based upon Andrea's latest userfaultfd tree, and it is a continuous works from both Shaohua and Andrea. Many of the follow up ideas come from Andrea too. Besides the old MISSING register mode of userfaultfd, the new uffd-wp support provides another alternative register mode called UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_WP that can be used to listen to not only missing page faults but also write protection page faults, or even they can be registered together. At the same time, the new feature also provides a new userfaultfd ioctl called UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT which allows the userspace to write protect a range or memory or fixup write permission of faulted pages. Please refer to the document patch "userfaultfd: wp: UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_WP documentation update" for more information on the new interface and what it can do. The major workflow of an uffd-wp program should be: 1. Register a memory region with WP mode using UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_WP 2. Write protect part of the whole registered region using UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT, passing in UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT_MODE_WP to show that we want to write protect the range. 3. Start a working thread that modifies the protected pages, meanwhile listening to UFFD messages. 4. When a write is detected upon the protected range, page fault happens, a UFFD message will be generated and reported to the page fault handling thread 5. The page fault handler thread resolves the page fault using the new UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT ioctl, but this time passing in !UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT_MODE_WP instead showing that we want to recover the write permission. Before this operation, the fault handler thread can do anything it wants, e.g., dumps the page to a persistent storage. 6. The worker thread will continue running with the correctly applied write permission from step 5. Currently there are already two projects that are based on this new userfaultfd feature. QEMU Live Snapshot: The project provides a way to allow the QEMU hypervisor to take snapshot of VMs without stopping the VM [3]. LLNL umap library: The project provides a mmap-like interface and "allow to have an application specific buffer of pages cached from a large file, i.e. out-of-core execution using memory map" [4][5]. Before posting the patchset, this series was smoke tested against QEMU live snapshot and the LLNL umap library (by doing parallel quicksort using 128 sorting threads + 80 uffd servicing threads). My sincere thanks to Marty Mcfadden and Denis Plotnikov for the help along the way.
