It's forbidden to take the page_table_lock with the irq disabled or if there's contention the IPIs (for tlb flushes) sent with the page_table_lock held will never run leading to a deadlock. Nobody takes the pgd_lock from irq context so the _irqsave can be removed.

mm_fault_error() should not execute oom-killer, if page fault occurs in kernel space. E.g. in copy_from_user()/copy_to_user(). This would happen if we find ourselves in OOM on a copy_to_user(), or a copy_from_user() which faults. Without this patch, the kernels hangs up in copy_from_user(), because OOM killer sends SIG_KILL to current process, but it can't handle a signal while in syscall, then the kernel returns to copy_from_user(), reexcute current command and provokes page_fault again. With this patch the kernel return -EFAULT from copy_from_user(). The code, which checks that page fault occurred in kernel space, has been copied from do_sigbus().

For GRU and EPT, we need gup-fast to set referenced bit too (this is why it's correct to return 0 when shadow_access_mask is zero, it requires gup-fast to set the referenced bit). qemu-kvm access already sets the young bit in the pte if it isn't zero-copy, if it's zero copy or a shadow paging EPT minor fault we relay on gup-fast to signal the page is in use... We also need to check the young bits on the secondary pagetables for NPT and not nested shadow mmu as the data may never get accessed again by the primary pte. Without this closer accuracy, we'd have to remove the heuristic that avoids collapsing hugepages in hugepage virtual regions that have not even a single subpage in use. ->test_young is full backwards compatible with GRU and other usages that don't have young bits in pagetables set by the hardware and that should nuke the secondary mmu mappings when ->clear_flush_young runs just like EPT does. Removing the heuristic that checks the young bit in khugepaged/collapse_huge_page completely isn't so bad either probably but I thought it was worth it and this makes it reliable.

"x86, numa: Fake node-to-cpumask for NUMA emulation" broke the build when CONFIG_DEBUG_PER_CPU_MAPS is set and CONFIG_NUMA_EMU is not. This is because it is possible to map a cpu to multiple nodes when NUMA emulation is used; the patch required a physical node address table to find those nodes that was only available when CONFIG_NUMA_EMU was enabled. This extracts the common debug functionality to its own function for CONFIG_DEBUG_PER_CPU_MAPS and uses it regardless of whether CONFIG_NUMA_EMU is set or not. NUMA emulation will now iterate over the set of possible nodes for each cpu and call the new debug function whereas only the cpu's node will be used without NUMA emulation enabled.

NUMA boot code assumes that physical node ids start at 0, but the DIMMs that the apic id represents may not be reachable. If this is the case, node 0 is never online and cpus never end up getting appropriately assigned to a node. This causes the cpumask of all online nodes to be empty and machines crash with kernel code assuming online nodes have valid cpus. The fix is to appropriately map all the address ranges for physical nodes and ensure the cpu to node mapping function checks all possible nodes (up to MAX_NUMNODES) instead of simply checking nodes 0-N, where N is the number of physical nodes, for valid address ranges. This requires no longer "compressing" the address ranges of nodes in the physical node map from 0-N, but rather leave indices in physnodes[] to represent the actual node id of the physical node. Accordingly, the topology exported by both amd_get_nodes() and acpi_get_nodes() no longer must return the number of nodes to iterate through; all such iterations will now be to MAX_NUMNODES. This change also passes the end address of system RAM (which may be different from normal operation if mem= is specified on the command line) before the physnodes[] array is populated. ACPI parsed nodes are truncated to fit within the address range that respect the mem= boundaries and even some physical nodes may become unreachable in such cases. When NUMA emulation does succeed, any apicid to node mapping that exists for unreachable nodes are given default values so that proximity domains can still be assigned. This is important for node_distance() to function as desired.

It's necessary to fake the node-to-cpumask mapping so that an emulated node ID returns a cpumask that includes all cpus that have affinity to the memory it represents. This is a little intrusive because it requires knowledge of the physical topology of the system. setup_physnodes() gives us that information, but since NUMA emulation ends up altering the physnodes array, it's necessary to reset it before cpus are brought online. Accordingly, the physnodes array is moved out of init.data and into cpuinit.data since it will be needed on cpuup callbacks. This works regardless of whether numa=fake is used on the command line, or the setup of the fake node succeeds or fails. The physnodes array always contains the physical topology of the machine if CONFIG_NUMA_EMU is enabled and can be used to setup the correct node-to-cpumask mappings in all cases since setup_physnodes() is called whenever the array needs to be repopulated with the correct data. To fake the actual mappings, numa_add_cpu() and numa_remove_cpu() are rewritten for CONFIG_NUMA_EMU so that we first find the physical node to which each cpu has local affinity, then iterate through all online nodes to find the emulated nodes that have local affinity to that physical node, and then finally map the cpu to each of those emulated nodes.

This patch adds the equivalent of acpi_fake_nodes() for AMD Northbridge platforms. The goal is to fake the apicid-to-node mappings for NUMA emulation so the physical topology of the machine is correctly maintained within the kernel. This change also fakes proximity domains for both ACPI and k8 code so the physical distance between emulated nodes is maintained via node_distance(). This exports the correct distances via /sys/devices/system/node/.../distance based on the underlying topology. A new helper function, fake_physnodes(), is introduced to correctly invoke the correct NUMA code to fake these two mappings based on the system type. If there is no underlying NUMA configuration, all cpus are mapped to node 0 for local distance. Since acpi_fake_nodes() is no longer called with CONFIG_ACPI_NUMA, it's prototype can be removed from the header file for such a configuration.

The various stack tracing routines take a 'bp' argument in which the caller is supposed to provide the base pointer to use, or 0 if doesn't have one. Since bp is garbage whenever CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER is not defined, this means all callers in principle should either always pass 0, or be conditional on CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER. However, there are only really three use cases for stack tracing: (a) Trace the current task, including IRQ stack if any (b) Trace the current task, but skip IRQ stack (c) Trace some other task In all cases, if CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER is not defined, bp should just be 0. If it _is_ defined, then - in case (a) bp should be gotten directly from the CPU's register, so the caller should pass NULL for regs, - in case (b) the caller should should pass the IRQ registers to dump_trace(), - in case (c) bp should be gotten from the top of the task's stack, so the caller should pass NULL for regs. Hence, the bp argument is not necessary because the combination of task and regs is sufficient to determine an appropriate value for bp. This patch introduces a new inline function stack_frame(task, regs) that computes the desired bp. This function is then called from the two versions of dump_stack().

NX is set for all pages from _etext through _end in mark_rodata_ro. 4. free_init_pages() sets released memory NX in arch/x86/mm/init.c 5. bios rom is set to x when pcibios is used.

This patch fixes a bug in try_preserve_large_page() which may result in improper large page preservation and improper application of page attributes to the memory area outside of the original change request. More specifically, the problem manifests itself when set_memory_*() is called for several pages at the beginning of the large page and try_preserve_large_page() erroneously concludes that the change can be applied to whole large page. The fix consists of 3 parts: 1. Addition of "required" protection attributes in static_protections(), so .data and .bss can be guaranteed to stay "RW" 2. static_protections() is now called for every small page within large page to determine compatibility of new protection attributes (instead of just small pages within the requested range). 3.

Found a NUMA system that doesn't have RAM installed at the first socket which hangs while executing init scripts. bisected it to: | commit 93296720 | Author: Shaohua Li <shaohua.li@intel.com> | Date: Wed Oct 20 11:07:03 2010 +0800 | | x86: Spread tlb flush vector between nodes It turns out when first socket is not online it could have cpus on node1 tlb_offset set to bigger than NUM_INVALIDATE_TLB_VECTORS. That could affect systems like 4 sockets, but socket 2 doesn't have installed, sockets 3 will get too big tlb_offset. Need to use real online node idx.

Mark tlb_cpuhp_notify as __cpuinit. It's basically a callback function, which is called from __cpuinit init_smp_flash(). So - it's safe. We were warned by the following warning: WARNING: arch/x86/mm/built-in.o(.text+0x356d): Section mismatch in reference from the function tlb_cpuhp_notify() to the function .cpuinit.text:calculate_tlb_offset() The function tlb_cpuhp_notify() references the function __cpuinit calculate_tlb_offset(). This is often because tlb_cpuhp_notify lacks a __cpuinit annotation or the annotation of calculate_tlb_offset is wrong.

Xen can reserve huge amounts of memory for pre-ballooning, but that still shows as RAM in the e820 memory map. early_node_mem could not find range because of start/end adjusting, and will go through the fallback path. However, the fallback patch is still using memblock_x86_find_range_node(), and it is partially top-down because it go through active_range entries from low to high. Let's use memblock_find_in_range instead memblock_x86_find_range_node. So get real top down in fallback path. We may still need to make memblock_x86_find_range_node to do overall top_down work.

Christoph reported a nice splat which illustrated a race in the new stack based kmap_atomic implementation. The problem is that we pop our stack slot before we're completely done resetting its state -- in particular clearing the PTE (sometimes that's CONFIG_DEBUG_HIGHMEM). If an interrupt happens before we actually clear the PTE used for the last slot, that interrupt can reuse the slot in a dirty state, which triggers a BUG in kmap_atomic(). Fix this by introducing kmap_atomic_idx() which reports the current slot index without actually releasing it and use that to find the PTE and delay the _pop() until after we're completely done.

This change reduces mmap_sem hold times that are caused by waiting for disk transfers when accessing file mapped VMAs. It introduces the VM_FAULT_ALLOW_RETRY flag, which indicates that the call site wants mmap_sem to be released if blocking on a pending disk transfer. In that case, filemap_fault() returns the VM_FAULT_RETRY status bit and do_page_fault() will then re-acquire mmap_sem and retry the page fault. It is expected that the retry will hit the same page which will now be cached, and thus it will complete with a low mmap_sem hold time. Tests: - microbenchmark: thread A mmaps a large file and does random read accesses to the mmaped area - achieves about 55 iterations/s. Thread B does mmap/munmap in a loop at a separate location - achieves 55 iterations/s before, 15000 iterations/s after. - We are seeing related effects in some applications in house, which show significant performance regressions when running without this change.

Keep the current interface but ignore the KM_type and use a stack based approach. The advantage is that we get rid of crappy code like: #define __KM_PTE \ (in_nmi() ? KM_NMI_PTE : \ in_irq() ? KM_IRQ_PTE : \ KM_PTE0) and in general can stop worrying about what context we're in and what kmap slots might be appropriate for that. The downside is that FRV kmap_atomic() gets more expensive. For now we use a CPP trick suggested by Andrew: #define kmap_atomic(page, args...) __kmap_atomic(page) to avoid having to touch all kmap_atomic() users in a single patch.

Currently flush tlb vector allocation is based on below equation: sender = smp_processor_id() % 8 This isn't optimal, CPUs from different node can have the same vector, this causes a lot of lock contention. Instead, we can assign the same vectors to CPUs from the same node, while different node has different vectors. This has below advantages: a. if there is lock contention, the lock contention is between CPUs from one node. This should be much cheaper than the contention between nodes. b. completely avoid lock contention between nodes. This especially benefits kswapd, which is the biggest user of tlb flush, since kswapd sets its affinity to specific node. In my test, this could reduce > 20% CPU overhead in extreme case.The test machine has 4 nodes and each node has 16 CPUs. I then bind each node's kswapd to the first CPU of the node. I run a workload with 4 sequential mmap file read thread. The files are empty sparse file. This workload will trigger a lot of page reclaim and tlbflush. The kswapd bind is to easy trigger the extreme tlb flush lock contention because otherwise kswapd keeps migrating between CPUs of a node and I can't get stable result. Sure in real workload, we can't always see so big tlb flush lock contention, but it's possible.

Take mm->page_table_lock while syncing the vmalloc region. This prevents a race with the Xen pagetable pin/unpin code, which expects that the page_table_lock is already held. If this race occurs, then Xen can see an inconsistent page type (a page can either be read/write or a pagetable page, and pin/unpin converts it between them), which will cause either the pin or the set_p[gm]d to fail; either will crash the kernel. vmalloc_sync_all() should be called rarely, so this extra use of page_table_lock should not interfere with its normal users. The mm pointer is stashed in the pgd page's index field, as that won't be otherwise used for pgds.

In x86, faults exit by executing the iret instruction, which then reenables NMIs if we faulted in NMI context. Then if a fault happens in NMI, another NMI can nest after the fault exits. But we don't yet support nested NMIs because we have only one NMI stack. To prevent from that, check that vmalloc and kmemcheck faults don't happen in this context. Most of the other kernel faults in NMIs can be more easily spotted by finding explicit copy_from,to_user() calls on review.

Xen requires that all pages containing pagetable entries to be mapped read-only. If pages used for the initial pagetable are already mapped then we can change the mapping to RO. However, if they are initially unmapped, we need to make sure that when they are later mapped, they are also mapped RO. We do this by knowing that the kernel pagetable memory is pre-allocated in the range e820_table_start - e820_table_end, so any pfn within this range should be mapped read-only. However, the pagetable setup code early_ioremaps the pages to write their entries, so we must make sure that mappings created in the early_ioremap fixmap area are mapped RW. (Those mappings are removed before the pages are presented to Xen as pagetable pages.)
