      mm: remove cold parameter from free_hot_cold_page* · 2d4894b5
      由 Mel Gorman 提交于 
      Most callers users of free_hot_cold_page claim the pages being released
are cache hot.  The exception is the page reclaim paths where it is
likely that enough pages will be freed in the near future that the
per-cpu lists are going to be recycled and the cache hotness information
is lost.  As no one really cares about the hotness of pages being
released to the allocator, just ditch the parameter.

The APIs are renamed to indicate that it's no longer about hot/cold
pages.  It should also be less confusing as there are subtle differences
between them.  __free_pages drops a reference and frees a page when the
refcount reaches zero.  free_hot_cold_page handled pages whose refcount
was already zero which is non-obvious from the name.  free_unref_page
should be more obvious.

No performance impact is expected as the overhead is marginal.  The
parameter is removed simply because it is a bit stupid to have a useless
parameter copied everywhere.

      mm/mmu_notifier: avoid double notification when it is useless · 0f10851e
      由 Jérôme Glisse 提交于 
      This patch only affects users of mmu_notifier->invalidate_range callback
which are device drivers related to ATS/PASID, CAPI, IOMMUv2, SVM ...
and it is an optimization for those users.  Everyone else is unaffected
by it.

When clearing a pte/pmd we are given a choice to notify the event under
the page table lock (notify version of *_clear_flush helpers do call the
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range).  But that notification is not necessary
in all cases.

This patch removes almost all cases where it is useless to have a call
to mmu_notifier_invalidate_range before
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end.  It also adds documentation in all
those cases explaining why.

Below is a more in depth analysis of why this is fine to do this:

For secondary TLB (non CPU TLB) like IOMMU TLB or device TLB (when
device use thing like ATS/PASID to get the IOMMU to walk the CPU page
table to access a process virtual address space).  There is only 2 cases
when you need to notify those secondary TLB while holding page table
lock when clearing a pte/pmd:

  A) page backing address is free before mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end
  B) a page table entry is updated to point to a new page (COW, write fault
     on zero page, __replace_page(), ...)

Case A is obvious you do not want to take the risk for the device to write
to a page that might now be used by something completely different.

Case B is more subtle. For correctness it requires the following sequence
to happen:
  - take page table lock
  - clear page table entry and notify (pmd/pte_huge_clear_flush_notify())
  - set page table entry to point to new page

If clearing the page table entry is not followed by a notify before setting
the new pte/pmd value then you can break memory model like C11 or C++11 for
the device.

Consider the following scenario (device use a feature similar to ATS/
PASID):

Two address addrA and addrB such that |addrA - addrB| >= PAGE_SIZE we
assume they are write protected for COW (other case of B apply too).

[Time N] -----------------------------------------------------------------
CPU-thread-0  {try to write to addrA}
CPU-thread-1  {try to write to addrB}
CPU-thread-2  {}
CPU-thread-3  {}
DEV-thread-0  {read addrA and populate device TLB}
DEV-thread-2  {read addrB and populate device TLB}
[Time N+1] ---------------------------------------------------------------
CPU-thread-0  {COW_step0: {mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start(addrA)}}
CPU-thread-1  {COW_step0: {mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start(addrB)}}
CPU-thread-2  {}
CPU-thread-3  {}
DEV-thread-0  {}
DEV-thread-2  {}
[Time N+2] ---------------------------------------------------------------
CPU-thread-0  {COW_step1: {update page table point to new page for addrA}}
CPU-thread-1  {COW_step1: {update page table point to new page for addrB}}
CPU-thread-2  {}
CPU-thread-3  {}
DEV-thread-0  {}
DEV-thread-2  {}
[Time N+3] ---------------------------------------------------------------
CPU-thread-0  {preempted}
CPU-thread-1  {preempted}
CPU-thread-2  {write to addrA which is a write to new page}
CPU-thread-3  {}
DEV-thread-0  {}
DEV-thread-2  {}
[Time N+3] ---------------------------------------------------------------
CPU-thread-0  {preempted}
CPU-thread-1  {preempted}
CPU-thread-2  {}
CPU-thread-3  {write to addrB which is a write to new page}
DEV-thread-0  {}
DEV-thread-2  {}
[Time N+4] ---------------------------------------------------------------
CPU-thread-0  {preempted}
CPU-thread-1  {COW_step3: {mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end(addrB)}}
CPU-thread-2  {}
CPU-thread-3  {}
DEV-thread-0  {}
DEV-thread-2  {}
[Time N+5] ---------------------------------------------------------------
CPU-thread-0  {preempted}
CPU-thread-1  {}
CPU-thread-2  {}
CPU-thread-3  {}
DEV-thread-0  {read addrA from old page}
DEV-thread-2  {read addrB from new page}

So here because at time N+2 the clear page table entry was not pair with a
notification to invalidate the secondary TLB, the device see the new value
for addrB before seing the new value for addrA.  This break total memory
ordering for the device.

When changing a pte to write protect or to point to a new write protected
page with same content (KSM) it is ok to delay invalidate_range callback
to mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end() outside the page table lock.  This
is true even if the thread doing page table update is preempted right
after releasing page table lock before calling
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end

Thanks to Andrea for thinking of a problematic scenario for COW.

Note that because we can not presume the pmd value or pte value we have
to assume the worst and unconditionaly report an invalidation as
happening.

Changed since v2:
  - try_to_unmap_one() only one call to mmu_notifier_invalidate_range()

      Revert "rmap: do not call mmu_notifier_invalidate_page() under ptl" · 785373b4
      由 Linus Torvalds 提交于 
      This reverts commit aac2fea9.

It turns out that that patch was complete and utter garbage, and broke
KVM, resulting in odd oopses.

Quoting Andrea Arcangeli:
 "The aforementioned commit has 3 bugs.

  1) mmu_notifier_invalidate_range cannot be used in replacement of
     mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start/end.

     For KVM mmu_notifier_invalidate_range is a noop and rightfully so.

     A MMU notifier implementation has to implement either
     ->invalidate_range method or the invalidate_range_start/end
     methods, not both. And if you implement invalidate_range_start/end
     like KVM is forced to do, calling mmu_notifier_invalidate_range in
     common code is a noop for KVM.

     For those MMU notifiers that can get away only implementing
     ->invalidate_range, the ->invalidate_range is implicitly called by
     mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end(). And only those secondary MMUs
     that share the same pagetable with the primary MMU (like AMD
     iommuv2) can get away only implementing ->invalidate_range.

     So all cases (THP on/off) are broken right now.

     To fix this is enough to replace mmu_notifier_invalidate_range with
     mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start;mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end.
     Either that or call multiple mmu_notifier_invalidate_page like
     before.

  2) address + (1UL << compound_order(page) is buggy, it should be
     PAGE_SIZE << compound_order(page), it's bytes not pages, 2M not
     512.

  3) The whole invalidate_range thing was an attempt to call a single
     invalidate while walking multiple 4k ptes that maps the same THP
     (after a pmd virtual split without physical compound page THP
     split).

     It's unclear if the rmap_walk will always provide an address that
     is 2M aligned as parameter to try_to_unmap_one, in presence of THP.
     I think it needs also an address &= (PAGE_SIZE <<
     compound_order(page)) - 1 to be safe"

In general, we should stop making excuses for horrible MMU notifier
users.  It's much more important that the core VM is sane and safe, than
letting MMU notifiers sleep.

So if some MMU notifier is sleeping under a spinlock, we need to fix the
notifier, not try to make excuses for that garbage in the core VM.

    • M
      mm, mprotect: flush TLB if potentially racing with a parallel reclaim leaving stale TLB entries · 3ea27719
      由 Mel Gorman 提交于 
      Nadav Amit identified a theoritical race between page reclaim and
mprotect due to TLB flushes being batched outside of the PTL being held.

He described the race as follows:

        CPU0                            CPU1
        ----                            ----
                                        user accesses memory using RW PTE
                                        [PTE now cached in TLB]
        try_to_unmap_one()
        ==> ptep_get_and_clear()
        ==> set_tlb_ubc_flush_pending()
                                        mprotect(addr, PROT_READ)
                                        ==> change_pte_range()
                                        ==> [ PTE non-present - no flush ]

                                        user writes using cached RW PTE
        ...

        try_to_unmap_flush()

The same type of race exists for reads when protecting for PROT_NONE and
also exists for operations that can leave an old TLB entry behind such
as munmap, mremap and madvise.

For some operations like mprotect, it's not necessarily a data integrity
issue but it is a correctness issue as there is a window where an
mprotect that limits access still allows access.  For munmap, it's
potentially a data integrity issue although the race is massive as an
munmap, mmap and return to userspace must all complete between the
window when reclaim drops the PTL and flushes the TLB.  However, it's
theoritically possible so handle this issue by flushing the mm if
reclaim is potentially currently batching TLB flushes.

Other instances where a flush is required for a present pte should be ok
as either the page lock is held preventing parallel reclaim or a page
reference count is elevated preventing a parallel free leading to
corruption.  In the case of page_mkclean there isn't an obvious path
that userspace could take advantage of without using the operations that
are guarded by this patch.  Other users such as gup as a race with
reclaim looks just at PTEs.  huge page variants should be ok as they
don't race with reclaim.  mincore only looks at PTEs.  userfault also
should be ok as if a parallel reclaim takes place, it will either fault
the page back in or read some of the data before the flush occurs
triggering a fault.

Note that a variant of this patch was acked by Andy Lutomirski but this
was for the x86 parts on top of his PCID work which didn't make the 4.13
merge window as expected.  His ack is dropped from this version and
there will be a follow-on patch on top of PCID that will include his
ack.

      mm, x86/mm: Make the batched unmap TLB flush API more generic · e73ad5ff
      由 Andy Lutomirski 提交于 
      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.

      mm: Rename SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU to SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU · 5f0d5a3a
      由 Paul E. McKenney 提交于 
      A group of Linux kernel hackers reported chasing a bug that resulted
from their assumption that SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU provided an existence
guarantee, that is, that no block from such a slab would be reallocated
during an RCU read-side critical section.  Of course, that is not the
case.  Instead, SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU only prevents freeing of an entire
slab of blocks.

However, there is a phrase for this, namely "type safety".  This commit
therefore renames SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU to SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU in order
to avoid future instances of this sort of confusion.
