mm: introduce leaf entry type and use to simplify leaf entry logic The kernel maintains leaf page table entries which contain either: The kernel maintains leaf page table entries which contain either: - Nothing ('none' entries) - Present entries* - Everything else that will cause a fault which the kernel handles * Present entries are either entries the hardware can navigate without page fault or special cases like NUMA hint protnone or PMD with cleared present bit which contain hardware-valid entries modulo the present bit. In the 'everything else' group we include swap entries, but we also include a number of other things such as migration entries, device private entries and marker entries. Unfortunately this 'everything else' group expresses everything through a swp_entry_t type, and these entries are referred to swap entries even though they may well not contain a... swap entry. This is compounded by the rather mind-boggling concept of a non-swap swap entry (checked via non_swap_entry()) and the means by which we twist and turn to satisfy this. This patch lays the foundation for reducing this confusion. We refer to 'everything else' as a 'software-define leaf entry' or 'softleaf'. for short And in fact we scoop up the 'none' entries into this concept also so we are left with: - Present entries. - Softleaf entries (which may be empty). This allows for radical simplification across the board - one can simply convert any leaf page table entry to a leaf entry via softleaf_from_pte(). If the entry is present, we return an empty leaf entry, so it is assumed the caller is aware that they must differentiate between the two categories of page table entries, checking for the former via pte_present(). As a result, we can eliminate a number of places where we would otherwise need to use predicates to see if we can proceed with leaf page table entry conversion and instead just go ahead and do it unconditionally. We do so where we can, adjusting surrounding logic as necessary to integrate the new softleaf_t logic as far as seems reasonable at this stage. We typedef swp_entry_t to softleaf_t for the time being until the conversion can be complete, meaning everything remains compatible regardless of which type is used. We will eventually remove swp_entry_t when the conversion is complete. We introduce a new header file to keep things clear - leafops.h - this imports swapops.h so can direct replace swapops imports without issue, and we do so in all the files that require it. Additionally, add new leafops.h file to core mm maintainers entry.

userfaultfd: verify VMA state across UFFDIO_COPY retry Patch series "userfaultfd: verify VMA state across UFFDIO_COPY retry", v2. ... and two more small fixes. This patch (of 3): mfill_copy_folio_retry() drops the VMA lock for copy_from_user() and reacquires it afterwards. The destination VMA can be replaced during that window. The existing check compares vma_uffd_ops() before and after the retry, but if a shmem VMA with MAP_SHARED is replaced with a shmem VMA with MAP_PRIVATE (or vice versa) the replacement goes undetected. The change from MAP_PRIVATE to MAP_SHARED will treat the folio allocated with shmem_alloc_folio() as anonymous and this will cause BUG() when mfill_atomic_install_pte() will try to folio_add_new_anon_rmap(). The change from MAP_SHARED to MAP_PRIVATE allows injection of folios into the page cache of the original VMA. There is no need to change for hugetlb because it never uses mfill_copy_folio_retry(). Introduce helpers for more comprehensive comparison of VMA state: - mfill_retry_state_save() to save the relevant VMA state into a struct mfill_retry_state (original uffd_ops, relevant VMA flags, vm_file and pgoff) before dropping the lock - mfill_retry_state_changed() to compare the saved state with the state of the VMA acquired after retaking the locks - mfill_retry_state_put() to release vm_file pinning. Use DEFINE_FREE() cleanup to wrap mfill_retry_state_put() to avoid complicating error handling paths in mfill_copy_folio_retry().

mm/mprotect: use mmu_gather Patch series "mm/mprotect: avoid unnecessary TLB flushes", v6. This patchset is intended to remove unnecessary TLB flushes during mprotect() syscalls. Once this patch-set make it through, similar and further optimizations for MADV_COLD and userfaultfd would be possible. Basically, there are 3 optimizations in this patch-set: 1. Use TLB batching infrastructure to batch flushes across VMAs and do better/fewer flushes. This would also be handy for later userfaultfd enhancements. 2. Avoid unnecessary TLB flushes. This optimization is the one that provides most of the performance benefits. Unlike previous versions, we now only avoid flushes that would not result in spurious page-faults. 3. Avoiding TLB flushes on change_huge_pmd() that are only needed to prevent the A/D bits from changing. Andrew asked for some benchmark numbers. I do not have an easy determinate macrobenchmark in which it is easy to show benefit. I therefore ran a microbenchmark: a loop that does the following on anonymous memory, just as a sanity check to see that time is saved by avoiding TLB flushes. The loop goes: mprotect(p, PAGE_SIZE, PROT_READ) mprotect(p, PAGE_SIZE, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE) *p = 0; // make the page writable The test was run in KVM guest with 1 or 2 threads (the second thread was busy-looping). I measured the time (cycles) of each operation: 1 thread 2 threads mmots +patch mmots +patch PROT_READ 3494 2725 (-22%) 8630 7788 (-10%) PROT_READ|WRITE 3952 2724 (-31%) 9075 2865 (-68%) [ mmots = v5.17-rc6-mmots-2022-03-06-20-38 ] The exact numbers are really meaningless, but the benefit is clear. There are 2 interesting results though. (1) PROT_READ is cheaper, while one can expect it not to be affected. This is presumably due to TLB miss that is saved (2) Without memory access (*p = 0), the speedup of the patch is even greater. In that scenario mprotect(PROT_READ) also avoids the TLB flush. As a result both operations on the patched kernel take roughly ~1500 cycles (with either 1 or 2 threads), whereas on mmotm their cost is as high as presented in the table. This patch (of 3): change_pXX_range() currently does not use mmu_gather, but instead implements its own deferred TLB flushes scheme. This both complicates the code, as developers need to be aware of different invalidation schemes, and prevents opportunities to avoid TLB flushes or perform them in finer granularity. The use of mmu_gather for modified PTEs has benefits in various scenarios even if pages are not released. For instance, if only a single page needs to be flushed out of a range of many pages, only that page would be flushed. If a THP page is flushed, on x86 a single TLB invlpg instruction can be used instead of 512 instructions (or a full TLB flush, which would Linux would actually use by default). mprotect() over multiple VMAs requires a single flush. Use mmu_gather in change_pXX_range(). As the pages are not released, only record the flushed range using tlb_flush_pXX_range(). Handle THP similarly and get rid of flush_cache_range() which becomes redundant since tlb_start_vma() calls it when needed.

mm: fix kernel BUG when userfaultfd_move encounters swapcache userfaultfd_move() checks whether the PTE entry is present or a swap entry. - If the PTE entry is present, move_present_pte() handles folio migration by setting: src_folio->index = linear_page_index(dst_vma, dst_addr); - If the PTE entry is a swap entry, move_swap_pte() simply copies the PTE to the new dst_addr. This approach is incorrect because, even if the PTE is a swap entry, it can still reference a folio that remains in the swap cache. This creates a race window between steps 2 and 4. 1. add_to_swap: The folio is added to the swapcache. 2. try_to_unmap: PTEs are converted to swap entries. 3. pageout: The folio is written back. 4. Swapcache is cleared. If userfaultfd_move() occurs in the window between steps 2 and 4, after the swap PTE has been moved to the destination, accessing the destination triggers do_swap_page(), which may locate the folio in the swapcache. However, since the folio's index has not been updated to match the destination VMA, do_swap_page() will detect a mismatch. This can result in two critical issues depending on the system configuration. If KSM is disabled, both small and large folios can trigger a BUG during the add_rmap operation due to: page_pgoff(folio, page) != linear_page_index(vma, address) [ 13.336953] page: refcount:6 mapcount:1 mapping:00000000f43db19c index:0xffffaf150 pfn:0x4667c [ 13.337520] head: order:2 mapcount:1 entire_mapcount:0 nr_pages_mapped:1 pincount:0 [ 13.337716] memcg:ffff00000405f000 [ 13.337849] anon flags: 0x3fffc0000020459(locked|uptodate|dirty|owner_priv_1|head|swapbacked|node=0|zone=0|lastcpupid=0xffff) [ 13.338630] raw: 03fffc0000020459 ffff80008507b538 ffff80008507b538 ffff000006260361 [ 13.338831] raw: 0000000ffffaf150 0000000000004000 0000000600000000 ffff00000405f000 [ 13.339031] head: 03fffc0000020459 ffff80008507b538 ffff80008507b538 ffff000006260361 [ 13.339204] head: 0000000ffffaf150 0000000000004000 0000000600000000 ffff00000405f000 [ 13.339375] head: 03fffc0000000202 fffffdffc0199f01 ffffffff00000000 0000000000000001 [ 13.339546] head: 0000000000000004 0000000000000000 00000000ffffffff 0000000000000000 [ 13.339736] page dumped because: VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(page_pgoff(folio, page) != linear_page_index(vma, address)) [ 13.340190] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 13.340316] kernel BUG at mm/rmap.c:1380!

This patch also checks the swapcache when handling swap entries. If a match is found in the swapcache, it processes it similarly to a present PTE. However, there are some differences. For example, the folio is no longer exclusive because folio_try_share_anon_rmap_pte() is performed during unmapping. Furthermore, in the case of swapcache, the folio has already been unmapped, eliminating the risk of concurrent rmap walks and removing the need to acquire src_folio's anon_vma or lock. Note that for large folios, in the swapcache handling path, we directly return -EBUSY since split_folio() will return -EBUSY regardless if the folio is under writeback or unmapped. This is not an urgent issue, so a follow-up patch may address it separately.

Aggregate them all into mfill_state structure and pass this structure to functions that implement various UFFDIO_ commands. Tracking the state in a structure will allow moving the code that retries copying of data for UFFDIO_COPY into mfill_atomic_pte_copy() and make the loop in mfill_atomic() identical for all UFFDIO operations on PTE-mapped memory. The mfill_state definition is deliberately local to mm/userfaultfd.c, hence shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() is not updated.

userfaultfd: introduce vm_uffd_ops Current userfaultfd implementation works only with memory managed by core MM: anonymous, shmem and hugetlb. First, there is no fundamental reason to limit userfaultfd support only to the core memory types and userfaults can be handled similarly to regular page faults provided a VMA owner implements appropriate callbacks. Second, historically various code paths were conditioned on vma_is_anonymous(), vma_is_shmem() and is_vm_hugetlb_page() and some of these conditions can be expressed as operations implemented by a particular memory type. Introduce vm_uffd_ops extension to vm_operations_struct that will delegate memory type specific operations to a VMA owner. Operations for anonymous memory are handled internally in userfaultfd using anon_uffd_ops that implicitly assigned to anonymous VMAs. Start with a single operation, ->can_userfault() that will verify that a VMA meets requirements for userfaultfd support at registration time. Implement that method for anonymous, shmem and hugetlb and move relevant parts of vma_can_userfault() into the new callbacks.

userfaultfd: introduce vm_uffd_ops Current userfaultfd implementation works only with memory managed by core MM: anonymous, shmem and hugetlb. First, there is no fundamental reason to limit userfaultfd support only to the core memory types and userfaults can be handled similarly to regular page faults provided a VMA owner implements appropriate callbacks. Second, historically various code paths were conditioned on vma_is_anonymous(), vma_is_shmem() and is_vm_hugetlb_page() and some of these conditions can be expressed as operations implemented by a particular memory type. Introduce vm_uffd_ops extension to vm_operations_struct that will delegate memory type specific operations to a VMA owner. Operations for anonymous memory are handled internally in userfaultfd using anon_uffd_ops that implicitly assigned to anonymous VMAs. Start with a single operation, ->can_userfault() that will verify that a VMA meets requirements for userfaultfd support at registration time. Implement that method for anonymous, shmem and hugetlb and move relevant parts of vma_can_userfault() into the new callbacks.

userfaultfd/shmem: support UFFDIO_CONTINUE for shmem With this change, userspace can resolve a minor fault within a shmem-backed area with a UFFDIO_CONTINUE ioctl. The semantics for this match those for hugetlbfs - we look up the existing page in the page cache, and install a PTE for it. This commit introduces a new helper: mfill_atomic_install_pte. Why handle UFFDIO_CONTINUE for shmem in mm/userfaultfd.c, instead of in shmem.c? The existing userfault implementation only relies on shmem.c for VM_SHARED VMAs. However, minor fault handling / CONTINUE work just fine for !VM_SHARED VMAs as well. We'd prefer to handle CONTINUE for shmem in one place, regardless of shared/private (to reduce code duplication). Why add a new mfill_atomic_install_pte helper? A problem we have with continue is that shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() and mcopy_atomic_pte() are *close* to what we want, but not exactly. We do want to setup the PTEs in a CONTINUE operation, but we don't want to e.g. allocate a new page, charge it (e.g. to the shmem inode), manipulate various flags, etc. Also we have the problem stated above: shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() and mcopy_atomic_pte() both handle one-half of the problem (shared / private) continue cares about. So, introduce mcontinue_atomic_pte(), to handle all of the shmem continue cases. Introduce the helper so it doesn't duplicate code with mcopy_atomic_pte(). In a future commit, shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() will also be modified to use this new helper. However, since this is a bigger refactor, it seems most clear to do it as a separate change.

userfaultfd/shmem: modify shmem_mfill_atomic_pte to use install_pte() In a previous commit, we added the mfill_atomic_install_pte() helper. This helper does the job of setting up PTEs for an existing page, to map it into a given VMA. It deals with both the anon and shmem cases, as well as the shared and private cases. In other words, shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() duplicates a case it already handles. So, expose it, and let shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() use it directly, to reduce code duplication. This requires that we refactor shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() a bit: Instead of doing accounting (shmem_recalc_inode() et al) part-way through the PTE setup, do it afterward. This frees up mfill_atomic_install_pte() from having to care about this accounting, and means we don't need to e.g. shmem_uncharge() in the error path. A side effect is this switches shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() to use lru_cache_add_inactive_or_unevictable() instead of just lru_cache_add(). This wrapper does some extra accounting in an exceptional case, if appropriate, so it's actually the more correct thing to use.

mm: correctly handle UFFD PTE markers Patch series "mm: remove is_swap_[pte, pmd]() + non-swap entries, introduce leaf entries", v3. There's an established convention in the kernel that we treat leaf page tables (so far at the PTE, PMD level) as containing 'swap entries' should they be neither empty (i.e. p**_none() evaluating true) nor present (i.e. p**_present() evaluating true). However, at the same time we also have helper predicates - is_swap_pte(), is_swap_pmd() - which are inconsistently used. This is problematic, as it is logical to assume that should somebody wish to operate upon a page table swap entry they should first check to see if it is in fact one. It also implies that perhaps, in future, we might introduce a non-present, none page table entry that is not a swap entry. This series resolves this issue by systematically eliminating all use of the is_swap_pte() and is swap_pmd() predicates so we retain only the convention that should a leaf page table entry be neither none nor present it is a swap entry. We also have the further issue that 'swap entry' is unfortunately a really rather overloaded term and in fact refers to both entries for swap and for other information such as migration entries, page table markers, and device private entries. We therefore have the rather 'unique' concept of a 'non-swap' swap entry. This series therefore introduces the concept of 'software leaf entries', of type softleaf_t, to eliminate this confusion. A software leaf entry in this sense is any page table entry which is non-present, and represented by the softleaf_t type. That is - page table leaf entries which are software-controlled by the kernel. This includes 'none' or empty entries, which are simply represented by an zero leaf entry value. In order to maintain compatibility as we transition the kernel to this new type, we simply typedef swp_entry_t to softleaf_t. We introduce a number of predicates and helpers to interact with software leaf entries in include/linux/leafops.h which, as it imports swapops.h, can be treated as a drop-in replacement for swapops.h wherever leaf entry helpers are used. Since softleaf_from_[pte, pmd]() treats present entries as they were empty/none leaf entries, this allows for a great deal of simplification of code throughout the code base, which this series utilises a great deal. We additionally change from swap entry to software leaf entry handling where it makes sense to and eliminate functions from swapops.h where software leaf entries obviate the need for the functions. This patch (of 16): PTE markers were previously only concerned with UFFD-specific logic - that is, PTE entries with the UFFD WP marker set or those marked via UFFDIO_POISON. However since the introduction of guard markers in commit 7c53dfbdb024 ("mm: add PTE_MARKER_GUARD PTE marker"), this has no longer been the case. Issues have been avoided as guard regions are not permitted in conjunction with UFFD, but it still leaves very confusing logic in place, most notably the misleading and poorly named pte_none_mostly() and huge_pte_none_mostly(). This predicate returns true for PTE entries that ought to be treated as none, but only in certain circumstances, and on the assumption we are dealing with H/W poison markers or UFFD WP markers. This patch removes these functions and makes each invocation of these functions instead explicitly check what it needs to check. As part of this effort it introduces is_uffd_pte_marker() to explicitly determine if a marker in fact is used as part of UFFD or not. In the HMM logic we note that the only time we would need to check for a fault is in the case of a UFFD WP marker, otherwise we simply encounter a fault error (VM_FAULT_HWPOISON for H/W poisoned marker, VM_FAULT_SIGSEGV for a guard marker), so only check for the UFFD WP case. While we're here we also refactor code to make it easier to understand.

userfaultfd/shmem: support UFFDIO_CONTINUE for shmem With this change, userspace can resolve a minor fault within a shmem-backed area with a UFFDIO_CONTINUE ioctl. The semantics for this match those for hugetlbfs - we look up the existing page in the page cache, and install a PTE for it. This commit introduces a new helper: mfill_atomic_install_pte. Why handle UFFDIO_CONTINUE for shmem in mm/userfaultfd.c, instead of in shmem.c? The existing userfault implementation only relies on shmem.c for VM_SHARED VMAs. However, minor fault handling / CONTINUE work just fine for !VM_SHARED VMAs as well. We'd prefer to handle CONTINUE for shmem in one place, regardless of shared/private (to reduce code duplication). Why add a new mfill_atomic_install_pte helper? A problem we have with continue is that shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() and mcopy_atomic_pte() are *close* to what we want, but not exactly. We do want to setup the PTEs in a CONTINUE operation, but we don't want to e.g. allocate a new page, charge it (e.g. to the shmem inode), manipulate various flags, etc. Also we have the problem stated above: shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() and mcopy_atomic_pte() both handle one-half of the problem (shared / private) continue cares about. So, introduce mcontinue_atomic_pte(), to handle all of the shmem continue cases. Introduce the helper so it doesn't duplicate code with mcopy_atomic_pte(). In a future commit, shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() will also be modified to use this new helper. However, since this is a bigger refactor, it seems most clear to do it as a separate change.

mm/shmem: unconditionally set pte dirty in mfill_atomic_install_pte Patch series "mm: A few cleanup patches around zap, shmem and uffd", v4. IMHO all of them are very nice cleanups to existing code already, they're all small and self-contained. They'll be needed by uffd-wp coming series. This patch (of 4): It was conditionally done previously, as there's one shmem special case that we use SetPageDirty() instead. However that's not necessary and it should be easier and cleaner to do it unconditionally in mfill_atomic_install_pte(). The most recent discussion about this is here, where Hugh explained the history of SetPageDirty() and why it's possible that it's not required at all: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/alpine.LSU.2.11.2104121657050.1097@eggly.anvils/ Currently mfill_atomic_install_pte() has three callers: 1. shmem_mfill_atomic_pte 2. mcopy_atomic_pte 3. mcontinue_atomic_pte After the change: case (1) should have its SetPageDirty replaced by the dirty bit on pte (so we unify them together, finally), case (2) should have no functional change at all as it has page_in_cache==false, case (3) may add a dirty bit to the pte. However since case (3) is UFFDIO_CONTINUE for shmem, it's merely 100% sure the page is dirty after all because UFFDIO_CONTINUE normally requires another process to modify the page cache and kick the faulted thread, so should not make a real difference either. This should make it much easier to follow on which case will set dirty for uffd, as we'll simply set it all now for all uffd related ioctls. Meanwhile, no special handling of SetPageDirty() if there's no need.

mm: Make pte_mkwrite() take a VMA The x86 Shadow stack feature includes a new type of memory called shadow stack. This shadow stack memory has some unusual properties, which requires some core mm changes to function properly. One of these unusual properties is that shadow stack memory is writable, but only in limited ways. These limits are applied via a specific PTE bit combination. Nevertheless, the memory is writable, and core mm code will need to apply the writable permissions in the typical paths that call pte_mkwrite(). Future patches will make pte_mkwrite() take a VMA, so that the x86 implementation of it can know whether to create regular writable or shadow stack mappings. But there are a couple of challenges to this. Modifying the signatures of each arch pte_mkwrite() implementation would be error prone because some are generated with macros and would need to be re-implemented. Also, some pte_mkwrite() callers operate on kernel memory without a VMA. So this can be done in a three step process. First pte_mkwrite() can be renamed to pte_mkwrite_novma() in each arch, with a generic pte_mkwrite() added that just calls pte_mkwrite_novma(). Next callers without a VMA can be moved to pte_mkwrite_novma(). And lastly, pte_mkwrite() and all callers can be changed to take/pass a VMA. Previous work pte_mkwrite() renamed pte_mkwrite_novma() and converted callers that don't have a VMA were to use pte_mkwrite_novma(). So now change pte_mkwrite() to take a VMA and change the remaining callers to pass a VMA. Apply the same changes for pmd_mkwrite(). No functional change.

mm: userfaultfd: combine 'mode' and 'wp_copy' arguments Many userfaultfd ioctl functions take both a 'mode' and a 'wp_copy' argument. In future commits we plan to plumb the flags through to more places, so we'd be proliferating the very long argument list even further. Let's take the time to simplify the argument list. Combine the two arguments into one - and generalize, so when we add more flags in the future, it doesn't imply more function arguments. Since the modes (copy, zeropage, continue) are mutually exclusive, store them as an integer value (0, 1, 2) in the low bits. Place combine-able flag bits in the high bits. This is quite similar to an earlier patch proposed by Nadav Amit ("userfaultfd: introduce uffd_flags" [1]). The main difference is that patch only handled flags, whereas this patch *also* combines the "mode" argument into the same type to shorten the argument list.

userfaultfd/shmem: support UFFDIO_CONTINUE for shmem With this change, userspace can resolve a minor fault within a shmem-backed area with a UFFDIO_CONTINUE ioctl. The semantics for this match those for hugetlbfs - we look up the existing page in the page cache, and install a PTE for it. This commit introduces a new helper: mfill_atomic_install_pte. Why handle UFFDIO_CONTINUE for shmem in mm/userfaultfd.c, instead of in shmem.c? The existing userfault implementation only relies on shmem.c for VM_SHARED VMAs. However, minor fault handling / CONTINUE work just fine for !VM_SHARED VMAs as well. We'd prefer to handle CONTINUE for shmem in one place, regardless of shared/private (to reduce code duplication). Why add a new mfill_atomic_install_pte helper? A problem we have with continue is that shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() and mcopy_atomic_pte() are *close* to what we want, but not exactly. We do want to setup the PTEs in a CONTINUE operation, but we don't want to e.g. allocate a new page, charge it (e.g. to the shmem inode), manipulate various flags, etc. Also we have the problem stated above: shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() and mcopy_atomic_pte() both handle one-half of the problem (shared / private) continue cares about. So, introduce mcontinue_atomic_pte(), to handle all of the shmem continue cases. Introduce the helper so it doesn't duplicate code with mcopy_atomic_pte().

mm: correctly handle UFFD PTE markers Patch series "mm: remove is_swap_[pte, pmd]() + non-swap entries, introduce leaf entries", v3. There's an established convention in the kernel that we treat leaf page tables (so far at the PTE, PMD level) as containing 'swap entries' should they be neither empty (i.e. p**_none() evaluating true) nor present (i.e. p**_present() evaluating true). However, at the same time we also have helper predicates - is_swap_pte(), is_swap_pmd() - which are inconsistently used. This is problematic, as it is logical to assume that should somebody wish to operate upon a page table swap entry they should first check to see if it is in fact one. It also implies that perhaps, in future, we might introduce a non-present, none page table entry that is not a swap entry. This series resolves this issue by systematically eliminating all use of the is_swap_pte() and is swap_pmd() predicates so we retain only the convention that should a leaf page table entry be neither none nor present it is a swap entry. We also have the further issue that 'swap entry' is unfortunately a really rather overloaded term and in fact refers to both entries for swap and for other information such as migration entries, page table markers, and device private entries. We therefore have the rather 'unique' concept of a 'non-swap' swap entry. This series therefore introduces the concept of 'software leaf entries', of type softleaf_t, to eliminate this confusion. A software leaf entry in this sense is any page table entry which is non-present, and represented by the softleaf_t type. That is - page table leaf entries which are software-controlled by the kernel. This includes 'none' or empty entries, which are simply represented by an zero leaf entry value. In order to maintain compatibility as we transition the kernel to this new type, we simply typedef swp_entry_t to softleaf_t. We introduce a number of predicates and helpers to interact with software leaf entries in include/linux/leafops.h which, as it imports swapops.h, can be treated as a drop-in replacement for swapops.h wherever leaf entry helpers are used. Since softleaf_from_[pte, pmd]() treats present entries as they were empty/none leaf entries, this allows for a great deal of simplification of code throughout the code base, which this series utilises a great deal. We additionally change from swap entry to software leaf entry handling where it makes sense to and eliminate functions from swapops.h where software leaf entries obviate the need for the functions. This patch (of 16): PTE markers were previously only concerned with UFFD-specific logic - that is, PTE entries with the UFFD WP marker set or those marked via UFFDIO_POISON. However since the introduction of guard markers in commit 7c53dfbdb024 ("mm: add PTE_MARKER_GUARD PTE marker"), this has no longer been the case. Issues have been avoided as guard regions are not permitted in conjunction with UFFD, but it still leaves very confusing logic in place, most notably the misleading and poorly named pte_none_mostly() and huge_pte_none_mostly(). This predicate returns true for PTE entries that ought to be treated as none, but only in certain circumstances, and on the assumption we are dealing with H/W poison markers or UFFD WP markers. This patch removes these functions and makes each invocation of these functions instead explicitly check what it needs to check. As part of this effort it introduces is_uffd_pte_marker() to explicitly determine if a marker in fact is used as part of UFFD or not. In the HMM logic we note that the only time we would need to check for a fault is in the case of a UFFD WP marker, otherwise we simply encounter a fault error (VM_FAULT_HWPOISON for H/W poisoned marker, VM_FAULT_SIGSEGV for a guard marker), so only check for the UFFD WP case. While we're here we also refactor code to make it easier to understand.

mm: introduce leaf entry type and use to simplify leaf entry logic The kernel maintains leaf page table entries which contain either: The kernel maintains leaf page table entries which contain either: - Nothing ('none' entries) - Present entries* - Everything else that will cause a fault which the kernel handles * Present entries are either entries the hardware can navigate without page fault or special cases like NUMA hint protnone or PMD with cleared present bit which contain hardware-valid entries modulo the present bit. In the 'everything else' group we include swap entries, but we also include a number of other things such as migration entries, device private entries and marker entries. Unfortunately this 'everything else' group expresses everything through a swp_entry_t type, and these entries are referred to swap entries even though they may well not contain a... swap entry. This is compounded by the rather mind-boggling concept of a non-swap swap entry (checked via non_swap_entry()) and the means by which we twist and turn to satisfy this. This patch lays the foundation for reducing this confusion. We refer to 'everything else' as a 'software-define leaf entry' or 'softleaf'. for short And in fact we scoop up the 'none' entries into this concept also so we are left with: - Present entries. - Softleaf entries (which may be empty). This allows for radical simplification across the board - one can simply convert any leaf page table entry to a leaf entry via softleaf_from_pte(). If the entry is present, we return an empty leaf entry, so it is assumed the caller is aware that they must differentiate between the two categories of page table entries, checking for the former via pte_present(). As a result, we can eliminate a number of places where we would otherwise need to use predicates to see if we can proceed with leaf page table entry conversion and instead just go ahead and do it unconditionally. We do so where we can, adjusting surrounding logic as necessary to integrate the new softleaf_t logic as far as seems reasonable at this stage. We typedef swp_entry_t to softleaf_t for the time being until the conversion can be complete, meaning everything remains compatible regardless of which type is used. We will eventually remove swp_entry_t when the conversion is complete. We introduce a new header file to keep things clear - leafops.h - this imports swapops.h so can direct replace swapops imports without issue, and we do so in all the files that require it. Additionally, add new leafops.h file to core mm maintainers entry.

userfaultfd/shmem: support UFFDIO_CONTINUE for shmem With this change, userspace can resolve a minor fault within a shmem-backed area with a UFFDIO_CONTINUE ioctl. The semantics for this match those for hugetlbfs - we look up the existing page in the page cache, and install a PTE for it. This commit introduces a new helper: mfill_atomic_install_pte. Why handle UFFDIO_CONTINUE for shmem in mm/userfaultfd.c, instead of in shmem.c? The existing userfault implementation only relies on shmem.c for VM_SHARED VMAs. However, minor fault handling / CONTINUE work just fine for !VM_SHARED VMAs as well. We'd prefer to handle CONTINUE for shmem in one place, regardless of shared/private (to reduce code duplication). Why add a new mfill_atomic_install_pte helper? A problem we have with continue is that shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() and mcopy_atomic_pte() are *close* to what we want, but not exactly. We do want to setup the PTEs in a CONTINUE operation, but we don't want to e.g. allocate a new page, charge it (e.g. to the shmem inode), manipulate various flags, etc. Also we have the problem stated above: shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() and mcopy_atomic_pte() both handle one-half of the problem (shared / private) continue cares about. So, introduce mcontinue_atomic_pte(), to handle all of the shmem continue cases. Introduce the helper so it doesn't duplicate code with mcopy_atomic_pte(). In a future commit, shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() will also be modified to use this new helper. However, since this is a bigger refactor, it seems most clear to do it as a separate change.

Add bool compound to mlock_vma_page() and munlock_vma_page(): this is because we have understandable difficulty in accounting pte maps of THPs, and if passed a PageHead page, mlock_page() and munlock_page() cannot tell whether it's a pmd map to be counted or a pte map to be ignored. Add vma arg to page_add_file_rmap() and page_remove_rmap(), like the others, and use that to call mlock_vma_page() at the end of the page adds, and munlock_vma_page() at the end of page_remove_rmap() (end or beginning? unimportant, but end was easier for assertions in testing). No page lock is required (although almost all adds happen to hold it): delete the "Serialize with page migration" BUG_ON(!PageLocked(page))s. Certainly page lock did serialize with page migration, but I'm having difficulty explaining why that was ever important. Mlock accounting on THPs has been hard to define, differed between anon and file, involved PageDoubleMap in some places and not others, required clear_page_mlock() at some points. Keep it simple now: just count the pmds and ignore the ptes, there is no reason for ptes to undo pmd mlocks. page_add_new_anon_rmap() callers unchanged: they have long been calling lru_cache_add_inactive_or_unevictable(), which does its own VM_LOCKED handling (it also checks for not VM_SPECIAL: I think that's overcautious, and inconsistent with other checks, that mmap_region() already prevents VM_LOCKED on VM_SPECIAL; but haven't quite convinced myself to change it).

mm: extend rmap flags arguments for folio_add_new_anon_rmap Patch series "mm: clarify folio_add_new_anon_rmap() and __folio_add_anon_rmap()", v2. This patchset is preparatory work for mTHP swapin. folio_add_new_anon_rmap() assumes that new anon rmaps are always exclusive. However, this assumption doesn’t hold true for cases like do_swap_page(), where a new anon might be added to the swapcache and is not necessarily exclusive. The patchset extends the rmap flags to allow folio_add_new_anon_rmap() to handle both exclusive and non-exclusive new anon folios. The do_swap_page() function is updated to use this extended API with rmap flags. Consequently, all new anon folios now consistently use folio_add_new_anon_rmap(). The special case for !folio_test_anon() in __folio_add_anon_rmap() can be safely removed. In conclusion, new anon folios always use folio_add_new_anon_rmap(), regardless of exclusivity. Old anon folios continue to use __folio_add_anon_rmap() via folio_add_anon_rmap_pmd() and folio_add_anon_rmap_ptes(). This patch (of 3): In the case of a swap-in, a new anonymous folio is not necessarily exclusive. This patch updates the rmap flags to allow a new anonymous folio to be treated as either exclusive or non-exclusive. To maintain the existing behavior, we always use EXCLUSIVE as the default setting.

userfaultfd/shmem: support UFFDIO_CONTINUE for shmem With this change, userspace can resolve a minor fault within a shmem-backed area with a UFFDIO_CONTINUE ioctl. The semantics for this match those for hugetlbfs - we look up the existing page in the page cache, and install a PTE for it. This commit introduces a new helper: mfill_atomic_install_pte. Why handle UFFDIO_CONTINUE for shmem in mm/userfaultfd.c, instead of in shmem.c? The existing userfault implementation only relies on shmem.c for VM_SHARED VMAs. However, minor fault handling / CONTINUE work just fine for !VM_SHARED VMAs as well. We'd prefer to handle CONTINUE for shmem in one place, regardless of shared/private (to reduce code duplication). Why add a new mfill_atomic_install_pte helper? A problem we have with continue is that shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() and mcopy_atomic_pte() are *close* to what we want, but not exactly. We do want to setup the PTEs in a CONTINUE operation, but we don't want to e.g. allocate a new page, charge it (e.g. to the shmem inode), manipulate various flags, etc. Also we have the problem stated above: shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() and mcopy_atomic_pte() both handle one-half of the problem (shared / private) continue cares about. So, introduce mcontinue_atomic_pte(), to handle all of the shmem continue cases. Introduce the helper so it doesn't duplicate code with mcopy_atomic_pte(). In a future commit, shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() will also be modified to use this new helper. However, since this is a bigger refactor, it seems most clear to do it as a separate change.

userfaultfd: introduce mfill_copy_folio_locked() helper Patch series "mm, kvm: allow uffd support in guest_memfd", v4. These patches enable support for userfaultfd in guest_memfd. As the groundwork I refactored userfaultfd handling of PTE-based memory types (anonymous and shmem) and converted them to use vm_uffd_ops for allocating a folio or getting an existing folio from the page cache. shmem also implements callbacks that add a folio to the page cache after the data passed in UFFDIO_COPY was copied and remove the folio from the page cache if page table update fails. In order for guest_memfd to notify userspace about page faults, there are new VM_FAULT_UFFD_MINOR and VM_FAULT_UFFD_MISSING that a ->fault() handler can return to inform the page fault handler that it needs to call handle_userfault() to complete the fault. Nikita helped to plumb these new goodies into guest_memfd and provided basic tests to verify that guest_memfd works with userfaultfd. The handling of UFFDIO_MISSING in guest_memfd requires ability to remove a folio from page cache, the best way I could find was exporting filemap_remove_folio() to KVM. I deliberately left hugetlb out, at least for the most part. hugetlb handles acquisition of VMA and more importantly establishing of parent page table entry differently than PTE-based memory types. This is a different abstraction level than what vm_uffd_ops provides and people objected to exposing such low level APIs as a part of VMA operations. Also, to enable uffd in guest_memfd refactoring of hugetlb is not needed and I prefer to delay it until the dust settles after the changes in this set. This patch (of 4): Split copying of data when locks held from mfill_atomic_pte_copy() into a helper function mfill_copy_folio_locked(). This makes improves code readability and makes complex mfill_atomic_pte_copy() function easier to comprehend. No functional change.

userfaultfd: verify VMA state across UFFDIO_COPY retry Patch series "userfaultfd: verify VMA state across UFFDIO_COPY retry", v2. ... and two more small fixes. This patch (of 3): mfill_copy_folio_retry() drops the VMA lock for copy_from_user() and reacquires it afterwards. The destination VMA can be replaced during that window. The existing check compares vma_uffd_ops() before and after the retry, but if a shmem VMA with MAP_SHARED is replaced with a shmem VMA with MAP_PRIVATE (or vice versa) the replacement goes undetected. The change from MAP_PRIVATE to MAP_SHARED will treat the folio allocated with shmem_alloc_folio() as anonymous and this will cause BUG() when mfill_atomic_install_pte() will try to folio_add_new_anon_rmap(). The change from MAP_SHARED to MAP_PRIVATE allows injection of folios into the page cache of the original VMA. There is no need to change for hugetlb because it never uses mfill_copy_folio_retry(). Introduce helpers for more comprehensive comparison of VMA state: - mfill_retry_state_save() to save the relevant VMA state into a struct mfill_retry_state (original uffd_ops, relevant VMA flags, vm_file and pgoff) before dropping the lock - mfill_retry_state_changed() to compare the saved state with the state of the VMA acquired after retaking the locks - mfill_retry_state_put() to release vm_file pinning.

userfaultfd/shmem: support UFFDIO_CONTINUE for shmem With this change, userspace can resolve a minor fault within a shmem-backed area with a UFFDIO_CONTINUE ioctl. The semantics for this match those for hugetlbfs - we look up the existing page in the page cache, and install a PTE for it. This commit introduces a new helper: mfill_atomic_install_pte. Why handle UFFDIO_CONTINUE for shmem in mm/userfaultfd.c, instead of in shmem.c? The existing userfault implementation only relies on shmem.c for VM_SHARED VMAs. However, minor fault handling / CONTINUE work just fine for !VM_SHARED VMAs as well. We'd prefer to handle CONTINUE for shmem in one place, regardless of shared/private (to reduce code duplication). Why add a new mfill_atomic_install_pte helper? A problem we have with continue is that shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() and mcopy_atomic_pte() are *close* to what we want, but not exactly. We do want to setup the PTEs in a CONTINUE operation, but we don't want to e.g. allocate a new page, charge it (e.g. to the shmem inode), manipulate various flags, etc. Also we have the problem stated above: shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() and mcopy_atomic_pte() both handle one-half of the problem (shared / private) continue cares about. So, introduce mcontinue_atomic_pte(), to handle all of the shmem continue cases. Introduce the helper so it doesn't duplicate code with mcopy_atomic_pte(). In a future commit, shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() will also be modified to use this new helper. However, since this is a bigger refactor, it seems most clear to do it as a separate change.

mm: ptep_get() conversion Convert all instances of direct pte_t* dereferencing to instead use ptep_get() helper. This means that by default, the accesses change from a C dereference to a READ_ONCE(). This is technically the correct thing to do since where pgtables are modified by HW (for access/dirty) they are volatile and therefore we should always ensure READ_ONCE() semantics. But more importantly, by always using the helper, it can be overridden by the architecture to fully encapsulate the contents of the pte. Arch code is deliberately not converted, as the arch code knows best. It is intended that arch code (arm64) will override the default with its own implementation that can (e.g.) hide certain bits from the core code, or determine young/dirty status by mixing in state from another source. Conversion was done using Coccinelle: ---- // $ make coccicheck \ // COCCI=ptepget.cocci \ // SPFLAGS="--include-headers" \ // MODE=patch virtual patch @ depends on patch @ pte_t *v; @@ - *v + ptep_get(v) ---- Then reviewed and hand-edited to avoid multiple unnecessary calls to ptep_get(), instead opting to store the result of a single call in a variable, where it is correct to do so. This aims to negate any cost of READ_ONCE() and will benefit arch-overrides that may be more complex. Included is a fix for an issue in an earlier version of this patch that was pointed out by kernel test robot. The issue arose because config MMU=n elides definition of the ptep helper functions, including ptep_get(). HUGETLB_PAGE=n configs still define a simple huge_ptep_clear_flush() for linking purposes, which dereferences the ptep. So when both configs are disabled, this caused a build error because ptep_get() is not defined. Fix by continuing to do a direct dereference when MMU=n. This is safe because for this config the arch code cannot be trying to virtualize the ptes because none of the ptep helpers are defined.

userfaultfd/shmem: support UFFDIO_CONTINUE for shmem With this change, userspace can resolve a minor fault within a shmem-backed area with a UFFDIO_CONTINUE ioctl. The semantics for this match those for hugetlbfs - we look up the existing page in the page cache, and install a PTE for it. This commit introduces a new helper: mfill_atomic_install_pte. Why handle UFFDIO_CONTINUE for shmem in mm/userfaultfd.c, instead of in shmem.c? The existing userfault implementation only relies on shmem.c for VM_SHARED VMAs. However, minor fault handling / CONTINUE work just fine for !VM_SHARED VMAs as well. We'd prefer to handle CONTINUE for shmem in one place, regardless of shared/private (to reduce code duplication). Why add a new mfill_atomic_install_pte helper? A problem we have with continue is that shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() and mcopy_atomic_pte() are *close* to what we want, but not exactly. We do want to setup the PTEs in a CONTINUE operation, but we don't want to e.g. allocate a new page, charge it (e.g. to the shmem inode), manipulate various flags, etc. Also we have the problem stated above: shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() and mcopy_atomic_pte() both handle one-half of the problem (shared / private) continue cares about. So, introduce mcontinue_atomic_pte(), to handle all of the shmem continue cases. Introduce the helper so it doesn't duplicate code with mcopy_atomic_pte(). In a future commit, shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() will also be modified to use this new helper. However, since this is a bigger refactor, it seems most clear to do it as a separate change.

shmem, userfaultfd: use a VMA callback to handle UFFDIO_CONTINUE When userspace resolves a page fault in a shmem VMA with UFFDIO_CONTINUE it needs to get a folio that already exists in the pagecache backing that VMA. Instead of using shmem_get_folio() for that, add a get_folio_noalloc() method to 'struct vm_uffd_ops' that will return a folio if it exists in the VMA's pagecache at given pgoff. Implement get_folio_noalloc() method for shmem and slightly refactor userfaultfd's mfill_get_vma() and mfill_atomic_pte_continue() to support this new API.

userfaultfd/shmem: support UFFDIO_CONTINUE for shmem With this change, userspace can resolve a minor fault within a shmem-backed area with a UFFDIO_CONTINUE ioctl. The semantics for this match those for hugetlbfs - we look up the existing page in the page cache, and install a PTE for it. This commit introduces a new helper: mfill_atomic_install_pte. Why handle UFFDIO_CONTINUE for shmem in mm/userfaultfd.c, instead of in shmem.c? The existing userfault implementation only relies on shmem.c for VM_SHARED VMAs. However, minor fault handling / CONTINUE work just fine for !VM_SHARED VMAs as well. We'd prefer to handle CONTINUE for shmem in one place, regardless of shared/private (to reduce code duplication). Why add a new mfill_atomic_install_pte helper? A problem we have with continue is that shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() and mcopy_atomic_pte() are *close* to what we want, but not exactly. We do want to setup the PTEs in a CONTINUE operation, but we don't want to e.g. allocate a new page, charge it (e.g. to the shmem inode), manipulate various flags, etc. Also we have the problem stated above: shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() and mcopy_atomic_pte() both handle one-half of the problem (shared / private) continue cares about. So, introduce mcontinue_atomic_pte(), to handle all of the shmem continue cases. Introduce the helper so it doesn't duplicate code with mcopy_atomic_pte(). In a future commit, shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() will also be modified to use this new helper. However, since this is a bigger refactor, it seems most clear to do it as a separate change.

mm: shmem: don't truncate page if memory failure happens The current behavior of memory failure is to truncate the page cache regardless of dirty or clean. If the page is dirty the later access will get the obsolete data from disk without any notification to the users. This may cause silent data loss. It is even worse for shmem since shmem is in-memory filesystem, truncating page cache means discarding data blocks. The later read would return all zero. The right approach is to keep the corrupted page in page cache, any later access would return error for syscalls or SIGBUS for page fault, until the file is truncated, hole punched or removed. The regular storage backed filesystems would be more complicated so this patch is focused on shmem. This also unblock the support for soft offlining shmem THP.

In a future commit, shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() will also be modified to use this new helper. However, since this is a bigger refactor, it seems most clear to do it as a separate change.

shmem, userfaultfd: use a VMA callback to handle UFFDIO_CONTINUE When userspace resolves a page fault in a shmem VMA with UFFDIO_CONTINUE it needs to get a folio that already exists in the pagecache backing that VMA. Instead of using shmem_get_folio() for that, add a get_folio_noalloc() method to 'struct vm_uffd_ops' that will return a folio if it exists in the VMA's pagecache at given pgoff. Implement get_folio_noalloc() method for shmem and slightly refactor userfaultfd's mfill_get_vma() and mfill_atomic_pte_continue() to support this new API.

userfaultfd/shmem: support UFFDIO_CONTINUE for shmem With this change, userspace can resolve a minor fault within a shmem-backed area with a UFFDIO_CONTINUE ioctl. The semantics for this match those for hugetlbfs - we look up the existing page in the page cache, and install a PTE for it. This commit introduces a new helper: mfill_atomic_install_pte. Why handle UFFDIO_CONTINUE for shmem in mm/userfaultfd.c, instead of in shmem.c? The existing userfault implementation only relies on shmem.c for VM_SHARED VMAs. However, minor fault handling / CONTINUE work just fine for !VM_SHARED VMAs as well. We'd prefer to handle CONTINUE for shmem in one place, regardless of shared/private (to reduce code duplication). Why add a new mfill_atomic_install_pte helper? A problem we have with continue is that shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() and mcopy_atomic_pte() are *close* to what we want, but not exactly. We do want to setup the PTEs in a CONTINUE operation, but we don't want to e.g. allocate a new page, charge it (e.g. to the shmem inode), manipulate various flags, etc. Also we have the problem stated above: shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() and mcopy_atomic_pte() both handle one-half of the problem (shared / private) continue cares about. So, introduce mcontinue_atomic_pte(), to handle all of the shmem continue cases. Introduce the helper so it doesn't duplicate code with mcopy_atomic_pte().

mm: userfaultfd: add new UFFDIO_POISON ioctl The basic idea here is to "simulate" memory poisoning for VMs. A VM running on some host might encounter a memory error, after which some page(s) are poisoned (i.e., future accesses SIGBUS). They expect that once poisoned, pages can never become "un-poisoned". So, when we live migrate the VM, we need to preserve the poisoned status of these pages. When live migrating, we try to get the guest running on its new host as quickly as possible. So, we start it running before all memory has been copied, and before we're certain which pages should be poisoned or not. So the basic way to use this new feature is: - On the new host, the guest's memory is registered with userfaultfd, in either MISSING or MINOR mode (doesn't really matter for this purpose). - On any first access, we get a userfaultfd event. At this point we can communicate with the old host to find out if the page was poisoned. - If so, we can respond with a UFFDIO_POISON - this places a swap marker so any future accesses will SIGBUS. Because the pte is now "present", future accesses won't generate more userfaultfd events, they'll just SIGBUS directly. UFFDIO_POISON does not handle unmapping previously-present PTEs. This isn't needed, because during live migration we want to intercept all accesses with userfaultfd (not just writes, so WP mode isn't useful for this). So whether minor or missing mode is being used (or both), the PTE won't be present in any case, so handling that case isn't needed. Similarly, UFFDIO_POISON won't replace existing PTE markers. This might be okay to do, but it seems to be safer to just refuse to overwrite any existing entry (like a UFFD_WP PTE marker).

mm: userfaultfd: add new UFFDIO_POISON ioctl The basic idea here is to "simulate" memory poisoning for VMs. A VM running on some host might encounter a memory error, after which some page(s) are poisoned (i.e., future accesses SIGBUS). They expect that once poisoned, pages can never become "un-poisoned". So, when we live migrate the VM, we need to preserve the poisoned status of these pages. When live migrating, we try to get the guest running on its new host as quickly as possible. So, we start it running before all memory has been copied, and before we're certain which pages should be poisoned or not. So the basic way to use this new feature is: - On the new host, the guest's memory is registered with userfaultfd, in either MISSING or MINOR mode (doesn't really matter for this purpose). - On any first access, we get a userfaultfd event. At this point we can communicate with the old host to find out if the page was poisoned. - If so, we can respond with a UFFDIO_POISON - this places a swap marker so any future accesses will SIGBUS. Because the pte is now "present", future accesses won't generate more userfaultfd events, they'll just SIGBUS directly. UFFDIO_POISON does not handle unmapping previously-present PTEs. This isn't needed, because during live migration we want to intercept all accesses with userfaultfd (not just writes, so WP mode isn't useful for this). So whether minor or missing mode is being used (or both), the PTE won't be present in any case, so handling that case isn't needed. Similarly, UFFDIO_POISON won't replace existing PTE markers. This might be okay to do, but it seems to be safer to just refuse to overwrite any existing entry (like a UFFD_WP PTE marker).

mm: userfaultfd: rename functions for clarity + consistency Patch series "mm: userfaultfd: refactor and add UFFDIO_CONTINUE_MODE_WP", v5. - Commits 1-3 refactor userfaultfd ioctl code without behavior changes, with the main goal of improving consistency and reducing the number of function args. - Commit 4 adds UFFDIO_CONTINUE_MODE_WP. This patch (of 4): The basic problem is, over time we've added new userfaultfd ioctls, and we've refactored the code so functions which used to handle only one case are now re-used to deal with several cases. While this happened, we didn't bother to rename the functions. Similarly, as we added new functions, we cargo-culted pieces of the now-inconsistent naming scheme, so those functions too ended up with names that don't make a lot of sense. A key point here is, "copy" in most userfaultfd code refers specifically to UFFDIO_COPY, where we allocate a new page and copy its contents from userspace. There are many functions with "copy" in the name that don't actually do this (at least in some cases). So, rename things into a consistent scheme. The high level idea is that the call stack for userfaultfd ioctls becomes: userfaultfd_ioctl -> userfaultfd_(particular ioctl) -> mfill_atomic_(particular kind of fill operation) -> mfill_atomic /* loops over pages in range */ -> mfill_atomic_pte /* deals with single pages */ -> mfill_atomic_pte_(particular kind of fill operation) -> mfill_atomic_install_pte There are of course some special cases (shmem, hugetlb), but this is the general structure which all function names now adhere to.

mm: userfaultfd: combine 'mode' and 'wp_copy' arguments Many userfaultfd ioctl functions take both a 'mode' and a 'wp_copy' argument. In future commits we plan to plumb the flags through to more places, so we'd be proliferating the very long argument list even further. Let's take the time to simplify the argument list. Combine the two arguments into one - and generalize, so when we add more flags in the future, it doesn't imply more function arguments. Since the modes (copy, zeropage, continue) are mutually exclusive, store them as an integer value (0, 1, 2) in the low bits. Place combine-able flag bits in the high bits. This is quite similar to an earlier patch proposed by Nadav Amit ("userfaultfd: introduce uffd_flags" [1]). The main difference is that patch only handled flags, whereas this patch *also* combines the "mode" argument into the same type to shorten the argument list.

userfaultfd: remove (VM_)BUG_ON()s BUG_ON() is deprecated [1]. Convert all the BUG_ON()s and VM_BUG_ON()s to use VM_WARN_ON_ONCE(). There are a few additional cases that are converted or modified: - Convert the printk(KERN_WARNING ...) in handle_userfault() to use pr_warn(). - Convert the WARN_ON_ONCE()s in move_pages() to use VM_WARN_ON_ONCE(), as the relevant conditions are already checked in validate_range() in move_pages()'s caller. - Convert the VM_WARN_ON()'s in move_pages() to VM_WARN_ON_ONCE(). These cases should never happen and are similar to those in mfill_atomic() and mfill_atomic_hugetlb(), which were previously BUG_ON()s. move_pages() was added later than those functions and makes use of VM_WARN_ON() as a replacement for the deprecated BUG_ON(), but. VM_WARN_ON_ONCE() is likely a better direct replacement. - Convert the WARN_ON() for !VM_MAYWRITE in userfaultfd_unregister() and userfaultfd_register_range() to VM_WARN_ON_ONCE(). This condition is enforced in userfaultfd_register() so it should never happen, and can be converted to a debug check.

hugetlb: use new vma_lock for pmd sharing synchronization The new hugetlb vma lock is used to address this race: Faulting thread Unsharing thread ... ... ptep = huge_pte_offset() or ptep = huge_pte_alloc() ... i_mmap_lock_write lock page table ptep invalid <------------------------ huge_pmd_unshare() Could be in a previously unlock_page_table sharing process or worse i_mmap_unlock_write ... The vma_lock is used as follows: - During fault processing. The lock is acquired in read mode before doing a page table lock and allocation (huge_pte_alloc). The lock is held until code is finished with the page table entry (ptep). - The lock must be held in write mode whenever huge_pmd_unshare is called. Lock ordering issues come into play when unmapping a page from all vmas mapping the page. The i_mmap_rwsem must be held to search for the vmas, and the vma lock must be held before calling unmap which will call huge_pmd_unshare. This is done today in: - try_to_migrate_one and try_to_unmap_ for page migration and memory error handling. In these routines we 'try' to obtain the vma lock and fail to unmap if unsuccessful. Calling routines already deal with the failure of unmapping. - hugetlb_vmdelete_list for truncation and hole punch. This routine also tries to acquire the vma lock. If it fails, it skips the unmapping. However, we can not have file truncation or hole punch fail because of contention. After hugetlb_vmdelete_list, truncation and hole punch call remove_inode_hugepages. remove_inode_hugepages checks for mapped pages and call hugetlb_unmap_file_page to unmap them. hugetlb_unmap_file_page is designed to drop locks and reacquire in the correct order to guarantee unmap success.

However, linear_page_index() returns the index in PAGE_SIZE units, while hugetlb_fault_mutex_hash() expects the index in huge page units. This mismatch means that different addresses within the same huge page can produce different hash values, leading to the use of different mutexes for the same huge page. This can cause races between faulting threads, which can corrupt the reservation map and trigger the BUG_ON in resv_map_release(). Fix this by introducing hugetlb_linear_page_index(), which returns the page index in huge page granularity, and using it in place of linear_page_index().

hugetlbfs: revert use i_mmap_rwsem for more pmd sharing synchronization Commit c0d0381ade79 ("hugetlbfs: use i_mmap_rwsem for more pmd sharing synchronization") added code to take i_mmap_rwsem in read mode for the duration of fault processing. However, this has been shown to cause performance/scaling issues. Revert the code and go back to only taking the semaphore in huge_pmd_share during the fault path. Keep the code that takes i_mmap_rwsem in write mode before calling try_to_unmap as this is required if huge_pmd_unshare is called. NOTE: Reverting this code does expose the following race condition. Faulting thread Unsharing thread ... ... ptep = huge_pte_offset() or ptep = huge_pte_alloc() ... i_mmap_lock_write lock page table ptep invalid <------------------------ huge_pmd_unshare() Could be in a previously unlock_page_table sharing process or worse i_mmap_unlock_write ... ptl = huge_pte_lock(ptep) get/update pte set_pte_at(pte, ptep) It is unknown if the above race was ever experienced by a user. It was discovered via code inspection when initially addressed. In subsequent patches, a new synchronization mechanism will be added to coordinate pmd sharing and eliminate this race.

The vma_lock is used as follows: - During fault processing. The lock is acquired in read mode before doing a page table lock and allocation (huge_pte_alloc). The lock is held until code is finished with the page table entry (ptep). - The lock must be held in write mode whenever huge_pmd_unshare is called. Lock ordering issues come into play when unmapping a page from all vmas mapping the page. The i_mmap_rwsem must be held to search for the vmas, and the vma lock must be held before calling unmap which will call huge_pmd_unshare. This is done today in: - try_to_migrate_one and try_to_unmap_ for page migration and memory error handling. In these routines we 'try' to obtain the vma lock and fail to unmap if unsuccessful. Calling routines already deal with the failure of unmapping. - hugetlb_vmdelete_list for truncation and hole punch. This routine also tries to acquire the vma lock. If it fails, it skips the unmapping. However, we can not have file truncation or hole punch fail because of contention. After hugetlb_vmdelete_list, truncation and hole punch call remove_inode_hugepages. remove_inode_hugepages checks for mapped pages and call hugetlb_unmap_file_page to unmap them. hugetlb_unmap_file_page is designed to drop locks and reacquire in the correct order to guarantee unmap success.

hugetlb: pass vma into huge_pte_alloc() and huge_pmd_share() Patch series "hugetlb: Disable huge pmd unshare for uffd-wp", v4. This series tries to disable huge pmd unshare of hugetlbfs backed memory for uffd-wp. Although uffd-wp of hugetlbfs is still during rfc stage, the idea of this series may be needed for multiple tasks (Axel's uffd minor fault series, and Mike's soft dirty series), so I picked it out from the larger series. This patch (of 4): It is a preparation work to be able to behave differently in the per architecture huge_pte_alloc() according to different VMA attributes. Pass it deeper into huge_pmd_share() so that we can avoid the find_vma() call.

mm: correctly handle UFFD PTE markers Patch series "mm: remove is_swap_[pte, pmd]() + non-swap entries, introduce leaf entries", v3. There's an established convention in the kernel that we treat leaf page tables (so far at the PTE, PMD level) as containing 'swap entries' should they be neither empty (i.e. p**_none() evaluating true) nor present (i.e. p**_present() evaluating true). However, at the same time we also have helper predicates - is_swap_pte(), is_swap_pmd() - which are inconsistently used. This is problematic, as it is logical to assume that should somebody wish to operate upon a page table swap entry they should first check to see if it is in fact one. It also implies that perhaps, in future, we might introduce a non-present, none page table entry that is not a swap entry. This series resolves this issue by systematically eliminating all use of the is_swap_pte() and is swap_pmd() predicates so we retain only the convention that should a leaf page table entry be neither none nor present it is a swap entry. We also have the further issue that 'swap entry' is unfortunately a really rather overloaded term and in fact refers to both entries for swap and for other information such as migration entries, page table markers, and device private entries. We therefore have the rather 'unique' concept of a 'non-swap' swap entry. This series therefore introduces the concept of 'software leaf entries', of type softleaf_t, to eliminate this confusion. A software leaf entry in this sense is any page table entry which is non-present, and represented by the softleaf_t type. That is - page table leaf entries which are software-controlled by the kernel. This includes 'none' or empty entries, which are simply represented by an zero leaf entry value. In order to maintain compatibility as we transition the kernel to this new type, we simply typedef swp_entry_t to softleaf_t. We introduce a number of predicates and helpers to interact with software leaf entries in include/linux/leafops.h which, as it imports swapops.h, can be treated as a drop-in replacement for swapops.h wherever leaf entry helpers are used. Since softleaf_from_[pte, pmd]() treats present entries as they were empty/none leaf entries, this allows for a great deal of simplification of code throughout the code base, which this series utilises a great deal. We additionally change from swap entry to software leaf entry handling where it makes sense to and eliminate functions from swapops.h where software leaf entries obviate the need for the functions. This patch (of 16): PTE markers were previously only concerned with UFFD-specific logic - that is, PTE entries with the UFFD WP marker set or those marked via UFFDIO_POISON. However since the introduction of guard markers in commit 7c53dfbdb024 ("mm: add PTE_MARKER_GUARD PTE marker"), this has no longer been the case. Issues have been avoided as guard regions are not permitted in conjunction with UFFD, but it still leaves very confusing logic in place, most notably the misleading and poorly named pte_none_mostly() and huge_pte_none_mostly(). This predicate returns true for PTE entries that ought to be treated as none, but only in certain circumstances, and on the assumption we are dealing with H/W poison markers or UFFD WP markers. This patch removes these functions and makes each invocation of these functions instead explicitly check what it needs to check. As part of this effort it introduces is_uffd_pte_marker() to explicitly determine if a marker in fact is used as part of UFFD or not. In the HMM logic we note that the only time we would need to check for a fault is in the case of a UFFD WP marker, otherwise we simply encounter a fault error (VM_FAULT_HWPOISON for H/W poisoned marker, VM_FAULT_SIGSEGV for a guard marker), so only check for the UFFD WP case. While we're here we also refactor code to make it easier to understand.

mm: introduce leaf entry type and use to simplify leaf entry logic The kernel maintains leaf page table entries which contain either: The kernel maintains leaf page table entries which contain either: - Nothing ('none' entries) - Present entries* - Everything else that will cause a fault which the kernel handles * Present entries are either entries the hardware can navigate without page fault or special cases like NUMA hint protnone or PMD with cleared present bit which contain hardware-valid entries modulo the present bit. In the 'everything else' group we include swap entries, but we also include a number of other things such as migration entries, device private entries and marker entries. Unfortunately this 'everything else' group expresses everything through a swp_entry_t type, and these entries are referred to swap entries even though they may well not contain a... swap entry. This is compounded by the rather mind-boggling concept of a non-swap swap entry (checked via non_swap_entry()) and the means by which we twist and turn to satisfy this. This patch lays the foundation for reducing this confusion. We refer to 'everything else' as a 'software-define leaf entry' or 'softleaf'. for short And in fact we scoop up the 'none' entries into this concept also so we are left with: - Present entries. - Softleaf entries (which may be empty). This allows for radical simplification across the board - one can simply convert any leaf page table entry to a leaf entry via softleaf_from_pte(). If the entry is present, we return an empty leaf entry, so it is assumed the caller is aware that they must differentiate between the two categories of page table entries, checking for the former via pte_present(). As a result, we can eliminate a number of places where we would otherwise need to use predicates to see if we can proceed with leaf page table entry conversion and instead just go ahead and do it unconditionally. We do so where we can, adjusting surrounding logic as necessary to integrate the new softleaf_t logic as far as seems reasonable at this stage. We typedef swp_entry_t to softleaf_t for the time being until the conversion can be complete, meaning everything remains compatible regardless of which type is used. We will eventually remove swp_entry_t when the conversion is complete. We introduce a new header file to keep things clear - leafops.h - this imports swapops.h so can direct replace swapops imports without issue, and we do so in all the files that require it. Additionally, add new leafops.h file to core mm maintainers entry.

In the HMM logic we note that the only time we would need to check for a fault is in the case of a UFFD WP marker, otherwise we simply encounter a fault error (VM_FAULT_HWPOISON for H/W poisoned marker, VM_FAULT_SIGSEGV for a guard marker), so only check for the UFFD WP case. While we're here we also refactor code to make it easier to understand.

mm: userfaultfd: combine 'mode' and 'wp_copy' arguments Many userfaultfd ioctl functions take both a 'mode' and a 'wp_copy' argument. In future commits we plan to plumb the flags through to more places, so we'd be proliferating the very long argument list even further. Let's take the time to simplify the argument list. Combine the two arguments into one - and generalize, so when we add more flags in the future, it doesn't imply more function arguments. Since the modes (copy, zeropage, continue) are mutually exclusive, store them as an integer value (0, 1, 2) in the low bits. Place combine-able flag bits in the high bits. This is quite similar to an earlier patch proposed by Nadav Amit ("userfaultfd: introduce uffd_flags" [1]). The main difference is that patch only handled flags, whereas this patch *also* combines the "mode" argument into the same type to shorten the argument list.

hugetlb: use new vma_lock for pmd sharing synchronization The new hugetlb vma lock is used to address this race: Faulting thread Unsharing thread ... ... ptep = huge_pte_offset() or ptep = huge_pte_alloc() ... i_mmap_lock_write lock page table ptep invalid <------------------------ huge_pmd_unshare() Could be in a previously unlock_page_table sharing process or worse i_mmap_unlock_write ... The vma_lock is used as follows: - During fault processing. The lock is acquired in read mode before doing a page table lock and allocation (huge_pte_alloc). The lock is held until code is finished with the page table entry (ptep). - The lock must be held in write mode whenever huge_pmd_unshare is called. Lock ordering issues come into play when unmapping a page from all vmas mapping the page. The i_mmap_rwsem must be held to search for the vmas, and the vma lock must be held before calling unmap which will call huge_pmd_unshare. This is done today in: - try_to_migrate_one and try_to_unmap_ for page migration and memory error handling. In these routines we 'try' to obtain the vma lock and fail to unmap if unsuccessful. Calling routines already deal with the failure of unmapping. - hugetlb_vmdelete_list for truncation and hole punch. This routine also tries to acquire the vma lock. If it fails, it skips the unmapping. However, we can not have file truncation or hole punch fail because of contention. After hugetlb_vmdelete_list, truncation and hole punch call remove_inode_hugepages. remove_inode_hugepages checks for mapped pages and call hugetlb_unmap_file_page to unmap them. hugetlb_unmap_file_page is designed to drop locks and reacquire in the correct order to guarantee unmap success.

userfaultfd: use ENOENT instead of EFAULT if the atomic copy user fails Patch series "userfaultfd shmem updates". Jann found two bugs in the userfaultfd shmem MAP_SHARED backend: the lack of the VM_MAYWRITE check and the lack of i_size checks. Then looking into the above we also fixed the MAP_PRIVATE case. Hugh by source review also found a data loss source if UFFDIO_COPY is used on shmem MAP_SHARED PROT_READ mappings (the production usages incidentally run with PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, so the data loss couldn't happen in those production usages like with QEMU). The whole patchset is marked for stable. We verified QEMU postcopy live migration with guest running on shmem MAP_PRIVATE run as well as before after the fix of shmem MAP_PRIVATE. Regardless if it's shmem or hugetlbfs or MAP_PRIVATE or MAP_SHARED, QEMU unconditionally invokes a punch hole if the guest mapping is filebacked and a MADV_DONTNEED too (needed to get rid of the MAP_PRIVATE COWs and for the anon backend). This patch (of 5): We internally used EFAULT to communicate with the caller, switch to ENOENT, so EFAULT can be used as a non internal retval.

userfaultfd/shmem: support UFFDIO_CONTINUE for shmem With this change, userspace can resolve a minor fault within a shmem-backed area with a UFFDIO_CONTINUE ioctl. The semantics for this match those for hugetlbfs - we look up the existing page in the page cache, and install a PTE for it. This commit introduces a new helper: mfill_atomic_install_pte. Why handle UFFDIO_CONTINUE for shmem in mm/userfaultfd.c, instead of in shmem.c? The existing userfault implementation only relies on shmem.c for VM_SHARED VMAs. However, minor fault handling / CONTINUE work just fine for !VM_SHARED VMAs as well. We'd prefer to handle CONTINUE for shmem in one place, regardless of shared/private (to reduce code duplication). Why add a new mfill_atomic_install_pte helper? A problem we have with continue is that shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() and mcopy_atomic_pte() are *close* to what we want, but not exactly. We do want to setup the PTEs in a CONTINUE operation, but we don't want to e.g. allocate a new page, charge it (e.g. to the shmem inode), manipulate various flags, etc. Also we have the problem stated above: shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() and mcopy_atomic_pte() both handle one-half of the problem (shared / private) continue cares about. So, introduce mcontinue_atomic_pte(), to handle all of the shmem continue cases. Introduce the helper so it doesn't duplicate code with mcopy_atomic_pte(). In a future commit, shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() will also be modified to use this new helper. However, since this is a bigger refactor, it seems most clear to do it as a separate change.

shmem, userfaultfd: implement shmem uffd operations using vm_uffd_ops Add filemap_add() and filemap_remove() methods to vm_uffd_ops and use them in __mfill_atomic_pte() to add shmem folios to page cache and remove them in case of error. Implement these methods in shmem along with vm_uffd_ops->alloc_folio() and drop shmem_mfill_atomic_pte(). Since userfaultfd now does not reference any functions from shmem, drop include if linux/shmem_fs.h from mm/userfaultfd.c mfill_atomic_install_pte() is not used anywhere outside of mm/userfaultfd, make it static.

mm: userfaultfd: rename functions for clarity + consistency Patch series "mm: userfaultfd: refactor and add UFFDIO_CONTINUE_MODE_WP", v5. - Commits 1-3 refactor userfaultfd ioctl code without behavior changes, with the main goal of improving consistency and reducing the number of function args. - Commit 4 adds UFFDIO_CONTINUE_MODE_WP. This patch (of 4): The basic problem is, over time we've added new userfaultfd ioctls, and we've refactored the code so functions which used to handle only one case are now re-used to deal with several cases. While this happened, we didn't bother to rename the functions. Similarly, as we added new functions, we cargo-culted pieces of the now-inconsistent naming scheme, so those functions too ended up with names that don't make a lot of sense. A key point here is, "copy" in most userfaultfd code refers specifically to UFFDIO_COPY, where we allocate a new page and copy its contents from userspace. There are many functions with "copy" in the name that don't actually do this (at least in some cases). So, rename things into a consistent scheme. The high level idea is that the call stack for userfaultfd ioctls becomes: userfaultfd_ioctl -> userfaultfd_(particular ioctl) -> mfill_atomic_(particular kind of fill operation) -> mfill_atomic /* loops over pages in range */ -> mfill_atomic_pte /* deals with single pages */ -> mfill_atomic_pte_(particular kind of fill operation) -> mfill_atomic_install_pte There are of course some special cases (shmem, hugetlb), but this is the general structure which all function names now adhere to.

mm: userfaultfd: combine 'mode' and 'wp_copy' arguments Many userfaultfd ioctl functions take both a 'mode' and a 'wp_copy' argument. In future commits we plan to plumb the flags through to more places, so we'd be proliferating the very long argument list even further. Let's take the time to simplify the argument list. Combine the two arguments into one - and generalize, so when we add more flags in the future, it doesn't imply more function arguments. Since the modes (copy, zeropage, continue) are mutually exclusive, store them as an integer value (0, 1, 2) in the low bits. Place combine-able flag bits in the high bits. This is quite similar to an earlier patch proposed by Nadav Amit ("userfaultfd: introduce uffd_flags" [1]). The main difference is that patch only handled flags, whereas this patch *also* combines the "mode" argument into the same type to shorten the argument list.

userfaultfd: remove (VM_)BUG_ON()s BUG_ON() is deprecated [1]. Convert all the BUG_ON()s and VM_BUG_ON()s to use VM_WARN_ON_ONCE(). There are a few additional cases that are converted or modified: - Convert the printk(KERN_WARNING ...) in handle_userfault() to use pr_warn(). - Convert the WARN_ON_ONCE()s in move_pages() to use VM_WARN_ON_ONCE(), as the relevant conditions are already checked in validate_range() in move_pages()'s caller. - Convert the VM_WARN_ON()'s in move_pages() to VM_WARN_ON_ONCE(). These cases should never happen and are similar to those in mfill_atomic() and mfill_atomic_hugetlb(), which were previously BUG_ON()s. move_pages() was added later than those functions and makes use of VM_WARN_ON() as a replacement for the deprecated BUG_ON(), but. VM_WARN_ON_ONCE() is likely a better direct replacement. - Convert the WARN_ON() for !VM_MAYWRITE in userfaultfd_unregister() and userfaultfd_register_range() to VM_WARN_ON_ONCE(). This condition is enforced in userfaultfd_register() so it should never happen, and can be converted to a debug check.

mm: userfaultfd: rename functions for clarity + consistency Patch series "mm: userfaultfd: refactor and add UFFDIO_CONTINUE_MODE_WP", v5. - Commits 1-3 refactor userfaultfd ioctl code without behavior changes, with the main goal of improving consistency and reducing the number of function args. - Commit 4 adds UFFDIO_CONTINUE_MODE_WP. This patch (of 4): The basic problem is, over time we've added new userfaultfd ioctls, and we've refactored the code so functions which used to handle only one case are now re-used to deal with several cases. While this happened, we didn't bother to rename the functions. Similarly, as we added new functions, we cargo-culted pieces of the now-inconsistent naming scheme, so those functions too ended up with names that don't make a lot of sense. A key point here is, "copy" in most userfaultfd code refers specifically to UFFDIO_COPY, where we allocate a new page and copy its contents from userspace. There are many functions with "copy" in the name that don't actually do this (at least in some cases). So, rename things into a consistent scheme. The high level idea is that the call stack for userfaultfd ioctls becomes: userfaultfd_ioctl -> userfaultfd_(particular ioctl) -> mfill_atomic_(particular kind of fill operation) -> mfill_atomic /* loops over pages in range */ -> mfill_atomic_pte /* deals with single pages */ -> mfill_atomic_pte_(particular kind of fill operation) -> mfill_atomic_install_pte There are of course some special cases (shmem, hugetlb), but this is the general structure which all function names now adhere to.

mm: userfaultfd: combine 'mode' and 'wp_copy' arguments Many userfaultfd ioctl functions take both a 'mode' and a 'wp_copy' argument. In future commits we plan to plumb the flags through to more places, so we'd be proliferating the very long argument list even further. Let's take the time to simplify the argument list. Combine the two arguments into one - and generalize, so when we add more flags in the future, it doesn't imply more function arguments. Since the modes (copy, zeropage, continue) are mutually exclusive, store them as an integer value (0, 1, 2) in the low bits. Place combine-able flag bits in the high bits. This is quite similar to an earlier patch proposed by Nadav Amit ("userfaultfd: introduce uffd_flags" [1]). The main difference is that patch only handled flags, whereas this patch *also* combines the "mode" argument into the same type to shorten the argument list.

userfaultfd: add UFFDIO_CONTINUE ioctl This ioctl is how userspace ought to resolve "minor" userfaults. The idea is, userspace is notified that a minor fault has occurred. It might change the contents of the page using its second non-UFFD mapping, or not. Then, it calls UFFDIO_CONTINUE to tell the kernel "I have ensured the page contents are correct, carry on setting up the mapping". Note that it doesn't make much sense to use UFFDIO_{COPY,ZEROPAGE} for MINOR registered VMAs. ZEROPAGE maps the VMA to the zero page; but in the minor fault case, we already have some pre-existing underlying page. Likewise, UFFDIO_COPY isn't useful if we have a second non-UFFD mapping. We'd just use memcpy() or similar instead. It turns out hugetlb_mcopy_atomic_pte() already does very close to what we want, if an existing page is provided via `struct page **pagep`. We already special-case the behavior a bit for the UFFDIO_ZEROPAGE case, so just extend that design: add an enum for the three modes of operation, and make the small adjustments needed for the MCOPY_ATOMIC_CONTINUE case. (Basically, look up the existing page, and avoid adding the existing page to the page cache or calling set_page_huge_active() on it.)

mm: userfaultfd: add UFFDIO_CONTINUE_MODE_WP to install WP PTEs UFFDIO_COPY already has UFFDIO_COPY_MODE_WP, so when installing a new PTE to resolve a missing fault, one can install a write-protected one. This is useful when using UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_{MISSING,WP} in combination. This was motivated by testing HugeTLB HGM [1], and in particular its interaction with userfaultfd features. Existing userfaultfd code supports using WP and MINOR modes together (i.e. you can register an area with both enabled), but without this CONTINUE flag the combination is in practice unusable. So, add an analogous UFFDIO_CONTINUE_MODE_WP, which does the same thing as UFFDIO_COPY_MODE_WP, but for *minor* faults. Update the selftest to do some very basic exercising of the new flag. Update Documentation/ to describe how these flags are used (neither the COPY nor the new CONTINUE versions of this mode flag were described there before).

mm: userfaultfd: add new UFFDIO_POISON ioctl The basic idea here is to "simulate" memory poisoning for VMs. A VM running on some host might encounter a memory error, after which some page(s) are poisoned (i.e., future accesses SIGBUS). They expect that once poisoned, pages can never become "un-poisoned". So, when we live migrate the VM, we need to preserve the poisoned status of these pages. When live migrating, we try to get the guest running on its new host as quickly as possible. So, we start it running before all memory has been copied, and before we're certain which pages should be poisoned or not. So the basic way to use this new feature is: - On the new host, the guest's memory is registered with userfaultfd, in either MISSING or MINOR mode (doesn't really matter for this purpose). - On any first access, we get a userfaultfd event. At this point we can communicate with the old host to find out if the page was poisoned. - If so, we can respond with a UFFDIO_POISON - this places a swap marker so any future accesses will SIGBUS. Because the pte is now "present", future accesses won't generate more userfaultfd events, they'll just SIGBUS directly. UFFDIO_POISON does not handle unmapping previously-present PTEs. This isn't needed, because during live migration we want to intercept all accesses with userfaultfd (not just writes, so WP mode isn't useful for this). So whether minor or missing mode is being used (or both), the PTE won't be present in any case, so handling that case isn't needed. Similarly, UFFDIO_POISON won't replace existing PTE markers. This might be okay to do, but it seems to be safer to just refuse to overwrite any existing entry (like a UFFD_WP PTE marker).

mm/uffd: reset write protection when unregister with wp-mode The motivation of this patch comes from a recent report and patchfix from David Hildenbrand on hugetlb shared handling of wr-protected page [1]. With the reproducer provided in commit message of [1], one can leverage the uffd-wp lazy-reset of ptes to trigger a hugetlb issue which can affect not only the attacker process, but also the whole system. The lazy-reset mechanism of uffd-wp was used to make unregister faster, meanwhile it has an assumption that any leftover pgtable entries should only affect the process on its own, so not only the user should be aware of anything it does, but also it should not affect outside of the process. But it seems that this is not true, and it can also be utilized to make some exploit easier. So far there's no clue showing that the lazy-reset is important to any userfaultfd users because normally the unregister will only happen once for a specific range of memory of the lifecycle of the process. Considering all above, what this patch proposes is to do explicit pte resets when unregister an uffd region with wr-protect mode enabled. It should be the same as calling ioctl(UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT, wp=false) right before ioctl(UFFDIO_UNREGISTER) for the user. So potentially it'll make the unregister slower. From that pov it's a very slight abi change, but hopefully nothing should break with this change either. Regarding to the change itself - core of uffd write [un]protect operation is moved into a separate function (uffd_wp_range()) and it is reused in the unregister code path. Note that the new function will not check for anything, e.g. ranges or memory types, because they should have been checked during the previous UFFDIO_REGISTER or it should have failed already. It also doesn't check mmap_changing because we're with mmap write lock held anyway. I added a Fixes upon introducing of uffd-wp shmem+hugetlbfs because that's the only issue reported so far and that's the commit David's reproducer will start working (v5.19+). But the whole idea actually applies to not only file memories but also anonymous. It's just that we don't need to fix anonymous prior to v5.19- because there's no known way to exploit. IOW, this patch can also fix the issue reported in [1] as the patch 2 does.

mm/userfaultfd: rely on vma->vm_page_prot in uffd_wp_range() Patch series "mm: uffd-wp + change_protection() cleanups". Cleanup page protection handling in uffd-wp when calling change_protection() and improve unprotecting uffd=wp in private mappings, trying to set PTEs writable again if possible just like we do during mprotect() when upgrading write permissions. Make the change_protection() interface harder to get wrong :) I consider both pages primarily cleanups, although patch #1 fixes a corner case with uffd-wp and softdirty tracking for shmem. @Peter, please let me know if we should flag patch #1 as pure cleanup -- I have no idea how important softdirty tracking on shmem is. This patch (of 2): uffd_wp_range() currently calculates page protection manually using vm_get_page_prot(). This will ignore any other reason for active writenotify: one mechanism applicable to shmem is softdirty tracking. For example, the following sequence 1) Write to mapped shmem page 2) Clear softdirty 3) Register uffd-wp covering the mapped page 4) Unregister uffd-wp covering the mapped page 5) Write to page again will not set the modified page softdirty, because uffd_wp_range() will ignore that writenotify is required for softdirty tracking and simply map the page writable again using change_protection(). Similarly, instead of unregistering, protecting followed by un-protecting the page using uffd-wp would result in the same situation. Now that we enable writenotify whenever enabling uffd-wp on a VMA, vma->vm_page_prot will already properly reflect our requirements: the default is to write-protect all PTEs. However, for shared mappings we would now not remap the PTEs writable if possible when unprotecting, just like for private mappings (COW). To compensate, set MM_CP_TRY_CHANGE_WRITABLE just like mprotect() does to try mapping individual PTEs writable. For private mappings, this change implies that we will now always try setting PTEs writable when un-protecting, just like when upgrading write permissions using mprotect(), which is an improvement. For shared mappings, we will only set PTEs writable if can_change_pte_writable()/can_change_pmd_writable() indicates that it's ok. For ordinary shmem, this will be the case when PTEs are dirty, which should usually be the case -- otherwise we could special-case shmem in can_change_pte_writable()/can_change_pmd_writable() easily, because shmem itself doesn't require writenotify. Note that hugetlb does not yet implement MM_CP_TRY_CHANGE_WRITABLE, so we won't try setting PTEs writable when unprotecting or when unregistering uffd-wp. This can be added later on top by implementing MM_CP_TRY_CHANGE_WRITABLE. While commit ffd05793963a ("userfaultfd: wp: support write protection for userfault vma range") introduced that code, it should only be applicable to uffd-wp on shared mappings -- shmem (hugetlb does not support softdirty tracking). I don't think this corner cases justifies to cc stable. Let's just handle it correctly and prepare for change_protection() cleanups.

mm/uffd: reset write protection when unregister with wp-mode The motivation of this patch comes from a recent report and patchfix from David Hildenbrand on hugetlb shared handling of wr-protected page [1]. With the reproducer provided in commit message of [1], one can leverage the uffd-wp lazy-reset of ptes to trigger a hugetlb issue which can affect not only the attacker process, but also the whole system. The lazy-reset mechanism of uffd-wp was used to make unregister faster, meanwhile it has an assumption that any leftover pgtable entries should only affect the process on its own, so not only the user should be aware of anything it does, but also it should not affect outside of the process. But it seems that this is not true, and it can also be utilized to make some exploit easier. So far there's no clue showing that the lazy-reset is important to any userfaultfd users because normally the unregister will only happen once for a specific range of memory of the lifecycle of the process.

Cleanup page protection handling in uffd-wp when calling change_protection() and improve unprotecting uffd=wp in private mappings, trying to set PTEs writable again if possible just like we do during mprotect() when upgrading write permissions. Make the change_protection() interface harder to get wrong :) I consider both pages primarily cleanups, although patch #1 fixes a corner case with uffd-wp and softdirty tracking for shmem. @Peter, please let me know if we should flag patch #1 as pure cleanup -- I have no idea how important softdirty tracking on shmem is. This patch (of 2): uffd_wp_range() currently calculates page protection manually using vm_get_page_prot(). This will ignore any other reason for active writenotify: one mechanism applicable to shmem is softdirty tracking. For example, the following sequence 1) Write to mapped shmem page 2) Clear softdirty 3) Register uffd-wp covering the mapped page 4) Unregister uffd-wp covering the mapped page 5) Write to page again will not set the modified page softdirty, because uffd_wp_range() will ignore that writenotify is required for softdirty tracking and simply map the page writable again using change_protection(). Similarly, instead of unregistering, protecting followed by un-protecting the page using uffd-wp would result in the same situation. Now that we enable writenotify whenever enabling uffd-wp on a VMA, vma->vm_page_prot will already properly reflect our requirements: the default is to write-protect all PTEs. However, for shared mappings we would now not remap the PTEs writable if possible when unprotecting, just like for private mappings (COW). To compensate, set MM_CP_TRY_CHANGE_WRITABLE just like mprotect() does to try mapping individual PTEs writable. For private mappings, this change implies that we will now always try setting PTEs writable when un-protecting, just like when upgrading write permissions using mprotect(), which is an improvement. For shared mappings, we will only set PTEs writable if can_change_pte_writable()/can_change_pmd_writable() indicates that it's ok. For ordinary shmem, this will be the case when PTEs are dirty, which should usually be the case -- otherwise we could special-case shmem in can_change_pte_writable()/can_change_pmd_writable() easily, because shmem itself doesn't require writenotify. Note that hugetlb does not yet implement MM_CP_TRY_CHANGE_WRITABLE, so we won't try setting PTEs writable when unprotecting or when unregistering uffd-wp. This can be added later on top by implementing MM_CP_TRY_CHANGE_WRITABLE. While commit ffd05793963a ("userfaultfd: wp: support write protection for userfault vma range") introduced that code, it should only be applicable to uffd-wp on shared mappings -- shmem (hugetlb does not support softdirty tracking). I don't think this corner cases justifies to cc stable. Let's just handle it correctly and prepare for change_protection() cleanups.

mm/uffd: reset write protection when unregister with wp-mode The motivation of this patch comes from a recent report and patchfix from David Hildenbrand on hugetlb shared handling of wr-protected page [1]. With the reproducer provided in commit message of [1], one can leverage the uffd-wp lazy-reset of ptes to trigger a hugetlb issue which can affect not only the attacker process, but also the whole system. The lazy-reset mechanism of uffd-wp was used to make unregister faster, meanwhile it has an assumption that any leftover pgtable entries should only affect the process on its own, so not only the user should be aware of anything it does, but also it should not affect outside of the process. But it seems that this is not true, and it can also be utilized to make some exploit easier. So far there's no clue showing that the lazy-reset is important to any userfaultfd users because normally the unregister will only happen once for a specific range of memory of the lifecycle of the process. Considering all above, what this patch proposes is to do explicit pte resets when unregister an uffd region with wr-protect mode enabled. It should be the same as calling ioctl(UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT, wp=false) right before ioctl(UFFDIO_UNREGISTER) for the user. So potentially it'll make the unregister slower. From that pov it's a very slight abi change, but hopefully nothing should break with this change either. Regarding to the change itself - core of uffd write [un]protect operation is moved into a separate function (uffd_wp_range()) and it is reused in the unregister code path. Note that the new function will not check for anything, e.g. ranges or memory types, because they should have been checked during the previous UFFDIO_REGISTER or it should have failed already. It also doesn't check mmap_changing because we're with mmap write lock held anyway. I added a Fixes upon introducing of uffd-wp shmem+hugetlbfs because that's the only issue reported so far and that's the commit David's reproducer will start working (v5.19+). But the whole idea actually applies to not only file memories but also anonymous. It's just that we don't need to fix anonymous prior to v5.19- because there's no known way to exploit. IOW, this patch can also fix the issue reported in [1] as the patch 2 does.

userfaultfd: UFFDIO_MOVE uABI Implement the uABI of UFFDIO_MOVE ioctl. UFFDIO_COPY performs ~20% better than UFFDIO_MOVE when the application needs pages to be allocated [1]. However, with UFFDIO_MOVE, if pages are available (in userspace) for recycling, as is usually the case in heap compaction algorithms, then we can avoid the page allocation and memcpy (done by UFFDIO_COPY). Also, since the pages are recycled in the userspace, we avoid the need to release (via madvise) the pages back to the kernel [2]. We see over 40% reduction (on a Google pixel 6 device) in the compacting thread's completion time by using UFFDIO_MOVE vs. UFFDIO_COPY. This was measured using a benchmark that emulates a heap compaction implementation using userfaultfd (to allow concurrent accesses by application threads). More details of the usecase are explained in [2]. Furthermore, UFFDIO_MOVE enables moving swapped-out pages without touching them within the same vma. Today, it can only be done by mremap, however it forces splitting the vma. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/all/1425575884-2574-1-git-send-email-aarcange@redhat.com/ [2] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/CA+EESO4uO84SSnBhArH4HvLNhaUQ5nZKNKXqxRCyjniNVjp0Aw@mail.gmail.com/ Update for the ioctl_userfaultfd(2) manpage: UFFDIO_MOVE (Since Linux xxx) Move a continuous memory chunk into the userfault registered range and optionally wake up the blocked thread. The source and destination addresses and the number of bytes to move are specified by the src, dst, and len fields of the uffdio_move structure pointed to by argp: struct uffdio_move { __u64 dst; /* Destination of move */ __u64 src; /* Source of move */ __u64 len; /* Number of bytes to move */ __u64 mode; /* Flags controlling behavior of move */ __s64 move; /* Number of bytes moved, or negated error */ }; The following value may be bitwise ORed in mode to change the behavior of the UFFDIO_MOVE operation: UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_DONTWAKE Do not wake up the thread that waits for page-fault resolution UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_ALLOW_SRC_HOLES Allow holes in the source virtual range that is being moved. When not specified, the holes will result in ENOENT error. When specified, the holes will be accounted as successfully moved memory. This is mostly useful to move hugepage aligned virtual regions without knowing if there are transparent hugepages in the regions or not, but preventing the risk of having to split the hugepage during the operation. The move field is used by the kernel to return the number of bytes that was actually moved, or an error (a negated errno- style value). If the value returned in move doesn't match the value that was specified in len, the operation fails with the error EAGAIN. The move field is output-only; it is not read by the UFFDIO_MOVE operation. The operation may fail for various reasons. Usually, remapping of pages that are not exclusive to the given process fail; once KSM might deduplicate pages or fork() COW-shares pages during fork() with child processes, they are no longer exclusive. Further, the kernel might only perform lightweight checks for detecting whether the pages are exclusive, and return -EBUSY in case that check fails. To make the operation more likely to succeed, KSM should be disabled, fork() should be avoided or MADV_DONTFORK should be configured for the source VMA before fork(). This ioctl(2) operation returns 0 on success. In this case, the entire area was moved. On error, -1 is returned and errno is set to indicate the error. Possible errors include: EAGAIN The number of bytes moved (i.e., the value returned in the move field) does not equal the value that was specified in the len field. EINVAL Either dst or len was not a multiple of the system page size, or the range specified by src and len or dst and len was invalid. EINVAL An invalid bit was specified in the mode field. ENOENT The source virtual memory range has unmapped holes and UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_ALLOW_SRC_HOLES is not set. EEXIST The destination virtual memory range is fully or partially mapped. EBUSY The pages in the source virtual memory range are either pinned or not exclusive to the process. The kernel might only perform lightweight checks for detecting whether the pages are exclusive. To make the operation more likely to succeed, KSM should be disabled, fork() should be avoided or MADV_DONTFORK should be configured for the source virtual memory area before fork(). ENOMEM Allocating memory needed for the operation failed. ESRCH The target process has exited at the time of a UFFDIO_MOVE operation.

userfaultfd: add UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_RWP and UFFDIO_RWPROTECT plumbing Add the userspace interface for read-write protection tracking: - UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_RWP register a range for RWP tracking - UFFD_FEATURE_RWP capability bit - UFFDIO_RWPROTECT install / remove RWP on a range Introduce CONFIG_USERFAULTFD_RWP, auto-selected on 64-bit kernels with ARCH_HAS_PTE_PROTNONE and HAVE_ARCH_USERFAULTFD_WP. The symbol gates VM_UFFD_RWP (previously aliased to VM_NONE) and the smaps/trace-flag hooks added in the preparatory patches; without it the UAPI bits added here have nothing to drive and would be unreachable. Registration sets VM_UFFD_RWP on the VMA. Combining MODE_WP with MODE_RWP is rejected because both modes claim the uffd PTE bit. UFFDIO_RWPROTECT is the bidirectional counterpart of UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT: - MODE_RWP change_protection() with MM_CP_UFFD_RWP installs PAGE_NONE and sets the uffd bit on present PTEs - !MODE_RWP change_protection() with MM_CP_UFFD_RWP_RESOLVE restores vma->vm_page_prot and clears the bit userfaultfd_clear_vma() runs the same resolve pass on unregister so RWP state cannot outlive the uffd. Re-registering a range must not drop a mode that installs per-PTE markers (WP or RWP); doing so returns -EBUSY. This also closes a pre-existing window where re-registering without MODE_WP would strand uffd-wp markers: before, those caused extra write-faults but were otherwise benign; with RWP preservation in place, a subsequent mprotect() on a VM_UFFD_RWP VMA would silently promote the stale markers to RWP. The feature is not yet advertised. UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_RWP, UFFD_FEATURE_RWP, and _UFFDIO_RWPROTECT are intentionally absent from UFFD_API_REGISTER_MODES, UFFD_API_FEATURES, and UFFD_API_RANGE_IOCTLS, so UFFDIO_API masks them out and the register-mode validator rejects the bit. The follow-up patch adds fault dispatch and exposes the UAPI.

userfaultfd: UFFDIO_MOVE uABI Implement the uABI of UFFDIO_MOVE ioctl. UFFDIO_COPY performs ~20% better than UFFDIO_MOVE when the application needs pages to be allocated [1]. However, with UFFDIO_MOVE, if pages are available (in userspace) for recycling, as is usually the case in heap compaction algorithms, then we can avoid the page allocation and memcpy (done by UFFDIO_COPY). Also, since the pages are recycled in the userspace, we avoid the need to release (via madvise) the pages back to the kernel [2]. We see over 40% reduction (on a Google pixel 6 device) in the compacting thread's completion time by using UFFDIO_MOVE vs. UFFDIO_COPY. This was measured using a benchmark that emulates a heap compaction implementation using userfaultfd (to allow concurrent accesses by application threads). More details of the usecase are explained in [2]. Furthermore, UFFDIO_MOVE enables moving swapped-out pages without touching them within the same vma. Today, it can only be done by mremap, however it forces splitting the vma.

userfaultfd: opportunistic TLB-flush batching for present pages in MOVE MOVE ioctl's runtime is dominated by TLB-flush cost, which is required for moving present pages. Mitigate this cost by opportunistically batching present contiguous pages for TLB flushing. Without batching, in our testing on an arm64 Android device with UFFD GC, which uses MOVE ioctl for compaction, we observed that out of the total time spent in move_pages_pte(), over 40% is in ptep_clear_flush(), and ~20% in vm_normal_folio(). With batching, the proportion of vm_normal_folio() increases to over 70% of move_pages_pte() without any changes to vm_normal_folio(). Furthermore, time spent within move_pages_pte() is only ~20%, which includes TLB-flush overhead. When the GC intensive benchmark, which was used to gather the above numbers, is run on cuttlefish (qemu android instance on x86_64), the completion time of the benchmark went down from ~45mins to ~20mins. Furthermore, system_server, one of the most performance critical system processes on android, saw over 50% reduction in GC compaction time on an arm64 android device.

mm/userfaultfd: don't lock anon_vma when performing UFFDIO_MOVE Now that rmap_walk() is guaranteed to be called with the folio lock held, we can stop serializing on the src VMA anon_vma lock when moving an exclusive folio from a src VMA to a dst VMA in UFFDIO_MOVE ioctl. When moving a folio, we modify folio->mapping through folio_move_anon_rmap() and adjust folio->index accordingly. Doing that while we could have concurrent RMAP walks would be dangerous. Therefore, to avoid that, we had to acquire anon_vma of src VMA in write-mode. That meant that when multiple threads called UFFDIO_MOVE concurrently on distinct pages of the same src VMA, they would serialize on it, hurting scalability. In addition to avoiding the scalability bottleneck, this patch also simplifies the complicated lock dance that UFFDIO_MOVE has to go through between RCU, folio-lock, ptl, and anon_vma. folio_move_anon_rmap() already enforces that the folio is locked. So when we have the folio locked we can no longer race with concurrent rmap_walk() as used by folio_referenced() and others who call it on unlocked non-KSM anon folios, and therefore the anon_vma lock is no longer required. Note that this handling is now the same as for other folio_move_anon_rmap() users that also do not hold the anon_vma lock -- namely COW reuse handling (do_wp_page()->wp_can_reuse_anon_folio(), do_huge_pmd_wp_page(), and hugetlb_wp()). These users never required the anon_vma lock as they are only moving the anon VMA closer to the anon_vma leaf of the VMA, for example, from an anon_vma root to a leaf of that root. rmap walks were always able to tolerate that scenario.

userfaultfd: opportunistic TLB-flush batching for present pages in MOVE MOVE ioctl's runtime is dominated by TLB-flush cost, which is required for moving present pages. Mitigate this cost by opportunistically batching present contiguous pages for TLB flushing. Without batching, in our testing on an arm64 Android device with UFFD GC, which uses MOVE ioctl for compaction, we observed that out of the total time spent in move_pages_pte(), over 40% is in ptep_clear_flush(), and ~20% in vm_normal_folio(). With batching, the proportion of vm_normal_folio() increases to over 70% of move_pages_pte() without any changes to vm_normal_folio(). Furthermore, time spent within move_pages_pte() is only ~20%, which includes TLB-flush overhead. When the GC intensive benchmark, which was used to gather the above numbers, is run on cuttlefish (qemu android instance on x86_64), the completion time of the benchmark went down from ~45mins to ~20mins. Furthermore, system_server, one of the most performance critical system processes on android, saw over 50% reduction in GC compaction time on an arm64 android device.

mm/userfaultfd: don't lock anon_vma when performing UFFDIO_MOVE Now that rmap_walk() is guaranteed to be called with the folio lock held, we can stop serializing on the src VMA anon_vma lock when moving an exclusive folio from a src VMA to a dst VMA in UFFDIO_MOVE ioctl. When moving a folio, we modify folio->mapping through folio_move_anon_rmap() and adjust folio->index accordingly. Doing that while we could have concurrent RMAP walks would be dangerous. Therefore, to avoid that, we had to acquire anon_vma of src VMA in write-mode. That meant that when multiple threads called UFFDIO_MOVE concurrently on distinct pages of the same src VMA, they would serialize on it, hurting scalability. In addition to avoiding the scalability bottleneck, this patch also simplifies the complicated lock dance that UFFDIO_MOVE has to go through between RCU, folio-lock, ptl, and anon_vma. folio_move_anon_rmap() already enforces that the folio is locked. So when we have the folio locked we can no longer race with concurrent rmap_walk() as used by folio_referenced() and others who call it on unlocked non-KSM anon folios, and therefore the anon_vma lock is no longer required. Note that this handling is now the same as for other folio_move_anon_rmap() users that also do not hold the anon_vma lock -- namely COW reuse handling (do_wp_page()->wp_can_reuse_anon_folio(), do_huge_pmd_wp_page(), and hugetlb_wp()). These users never required the anon_vma lock as they are only moving the anon VMA closer to the anon_vma leaf of the VMA, for example, from an anon_vma root to a leaf of that root. rmap walks were always able to tolerate that scenario.

However, with UFFDIO_MOVE, if pages are available (in userspace) for recycling, as is usually the case in heap compaction algorithms, then we can avoid the page allocation and memcpy (done by UFFDIO_COPY).

This was measured using a benchmark that emulates a heap compaction implementation using userfaultfd (to allow concurrent accesses by application threads).

userfaultfd: opportunistic TLB-flush batching for present pages in MOVE MOVE ioctl's runtime is dominated by TLB-flush cost, which is required for moving present pages. Mitigate this cost by opportunistically batching present contiguous pages for TLB flushing. Without batching, in our testing on an arm64 Android device with UFFD GC, which uses MOVE ioctl for compaction, we observed that out of the total time spent in move_pages_pte(), over 40% is in ptep_clear_flush(), and ~20% in vm_normal_folio(). With batching, the proportion of vm_normal_folio() increases to over 70% of move_pages_pte() without any changes to vm_normal_folio(). Furthermore, time spent within move_pages_pte() is only ~20%, which includes TLB-flush overhead. When the GC intensive benchmark, which was used to gather the above numbers, is run on cuttlefish (qemu android instance on x86_64), the completion time of the benchmark went down from ~45mins to ~20mins. Furthermore, system_server, one of the most performance critical system processes on android, saw over 50% reduction in GC compaction time on an arm64 android device.

mm: introduce generic lazy_mmu helpers The implementation of the lazy MMU mode is currently entirely arch-specific; core code directly calls arch helpers: arch_{enter,leave}_lazy_mmu_mode(). We are about to introduce support for nested lazy MMU sections. As things stand we'd have to duplicate that logic in every arch implementing lazy_mmu - adding to a fair amount of logic already duplicated across lazy_mmu implementations. This patch therefore introduces a new generic layer that calls the existing arch_* helpers. Two pair of calls are introduced: * lazy_mmu_mode_enable() ... lazy_mmu_mode_disable() This is the standard case where the mode is enabled for a given block of code by surrounding it with enable() and disable() calls. * lazy_mmu_mode_pause() ... lazy_mmu_mode_resume() This is for situations where the mode is temporarily disabled by first calling pause() and then resume() (e.g. to prevent any batching from occurring in a critical section). The documentation in <linux/pgtable.h> will be updated in a subsequent patch. No functional change should be introduced at this stage. The implementation of enable()/resume() and disable()/pause() is currently identical, but nesting support will change that. Most of the call sites have been updated using the following Coccinelle script: @@ @@ { ... - arch_enter_lazy_mmu_mode(); + lazy_mmu_mode_enable(); ... - arch_leave_lazy_mmu_mode(); + lazy_mmu_mode_disable(); ... } @@ @@ { ... - arch_leave_lazy_mmu_mode(); + lazy_mmu_mode_pause(); ... - arch_enter_lazy_mmu_mode(); + lazy_mmu_mode_resume(); ... } A couple of notes regarding x86: * Xen is currently the only case where explicit handling is required for lazy MMU when context-switching. This is purely an implementation detail and using the generic lazy_mmu_mode_* functions would cause trouble when nesting support is introduced, because the generic functions must be called from the current task. For that reason we still use arch_leave() and arch_enter() there. * x86 calls arch_flush_lazy_mmu_mode() unconditionally in a few places, but only defines it if PARAVIRT_XXL is selected, and we are removing the fallback in <linux/pgtable.h>. Add a new fallback definition to <asm/pgtable.h> to keep things building.

userfaultfd: UFFDIO_MOVE uABI Implement the uABI of UFFDIO_MOVE ioctl. UFFDIO_COPY performs ~20% better than UFFDIO_MOVE when the application needs pages to be allocated [1]. However, with UFFDIO_MOVE, if pages are available (in userspace) for recycling, as is usually the case in heap compaction algorithms, then we can avoid the page allocation and memcpy (done by UFFDIO_COPY). Also, since the pages are recycled in the userspace, we avoid the need to release (via madvise) the pages back to the kernel [2]. We see over 40% reduction (on a Google pixel 6 device) in the compacting thread's completion time by using UFFDIO_MOVE vs. UFFDIO_COPY. This was measured using a benchmark that emulates a heap compaction implementation using userfaultfd (to allow concurrent accesses by application threads). More details of the usecase are explained in [2]. Furthermore, UFFDIO_MOVE enables moving swapped-out pages without touching them within the same vma. Today, it can only be done by mremap, however it forces splitting the vma. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/all/1425575884-2574-1-git-send-email-aarcange@redhat.com/ [2] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/CA+EESO4uO84SSnBhArH4HvLNhaUQ5nZKNKXqxRCyjniNVjp0Aw@mail.gmail.com/ Update for the ioctl_userfaultfd(2) manpage: UFFDIO_MOVE (Since Linux xxx) Move a continuous memory chunk into the userfault registered range and optionally wake up the blocked thread. The source and destination addresses and the number of bytes to move are specified by the src, dst, and len fields of the uffdio_move structure pointed to by argp: struct uffdio_move { __u64 dst; /* Destination of move */ __u64 src; /* Source of move */ __u64 len; /* Number of bytes to move */ __u64 mode; /* Flags controlling behavior of move */ __s64 move; /* Number of bytes moved, or negated error */ }; The following value may be bitwise ORed in mode to change the behavior of the UFFDIO_MOVE operation: UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_DONTWAKE Do not wake up the thread that waits for page-fault resolution UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_ALLOW_SRC_HOLES Allow holes in the source virtual range that is being moved. When not specified, the holes will result in ENOENT error. When specified, the holes will be accounted as successfully moved memory. This is mostly useful to move hugepage aligned virtual regions without knowing if there are transparent hugepages in the regions or not, but preventing the risk of having to split the hugepage during the operation. The move field is used by the kernel to return the number of bytes that was actually moved, or an error (a negated errno- style value). If the value returned in move doesn't match the value that was specified in len, the operation fails with the error EAGAIN. The move field is output-only; it is not read by the UFFDIO_MOVE operation. The operation may fail for various reasons. Usually, remapping of pages that are not exclusive to the given process fail; once KSM might deduplicate pages or fork() COW-shares pages during fork() with child processes, they are no longer exclusive. Further, the kernel might only perform lightweight checks for detecting whether the pages are exclusive, and return -EBUSY in case that check fails. To make the operation more likely to succeed, KSM should be disabled, fork() should be avoided or MADV_DONTFORK should be configured for the source VMA before fork().

mm/rmap: use anon pgoff to track MAP_PRIVATE file-backed anon folios Currently anonymous folios belonging to CoW'd MAP_PRIVATE file-backed mappings are indexed by their page offset within the file in which they were originally mapped. This differs from anonymous folios belonging to pure anon mappings which are indexed by their anonymous page offset (the address at which they'd belong in the VMA when first faulted). This change fixes this inconsistency, always indexing anonymous folios by their anonymous page offset regardless of the VMA to which they belong. The foundations have been laid such that we need only switch this functionality on such by: * Using linear_anon_page_index() in __folio_set_anon() to assign the folio's index to the anonymous linear index rather than the file-backed one. * Otherwise using linear_anon_page_index() in all instances where anonymous folios are being referenced or manipulated. * Replacing vma_address() with vma_filebacked_address() or vma_anon_address() as appropriate. * Updating the merging logic to check that anonymous page offsets are aligned as well as filebacked ones for MAP_PRIVATE file-backed VMAs, introducing needs_adjacent_anon_pgoff() to figure out when this is required. * Updating linear_folio_page_index() to invoke linear_anon_page_index() if the folio is anonymous. * Updating vma_address_end() to use the VMA's anonymous page offset when pvmw->pgoff is anonymous. * Correcting folio_within_range() to use anonymous page offset for anonymous folios. This will have no impact on merging of anonymous VMAs, whose page offset and anonymous page offset are identical, nor will it impact shared file-backed VMAs, which will continue to be merged based on the file-backed page offset. However, MAP_PRIVATE file-backed mappings must now be aligned on anonymous page offset as well. In most instances this should have no impact on merging of file-backed mappings, which are usually not merged all that often, let alone MAP_PRIVATE mapped ones, and rarely remapped and faulted before being moved back in place (the case in which a merge may now fail). One subtle impact of this change is in NUMA interleaving - since commit 88c91dc58582 ("mempolicy: migration attempt to match interleave nodes"), migration heuristically tries to maintain interleaving behaviour matching the policy using folio indices. When doing migration of CoW'd MAP_PRIVATE-file backed ranges, the 'base' upon which the interleaving behaviour is performed will vary for these ranges. However the commit notes that ranges spanning multiple VMAs will already cause varying bases, and that this is an acceptable approximation. It is very unlikely real world use-cases will be impacted by this (MAP_PRIVATE file-backed mappings are already an edge case), and all that will happen is that such ranges will cause interleaving to be rotated over the CoW'd range, with little to no impact. This commit lays the foundations for future scalable CoW work which needs to track some remaps, meaning that most remap tracking can be avoided, and in nearly all cases the anonymous page offset will be able to be used to quickly find the VMA in an mm. Note that the need_rmap_locks check doesn't need to be updated, as any remapping will offset both the anonymous and file-backed page offset, so it suffices to check only one.

This patchset adds support for Svrsw60t59b [1] extension which is ratified now, also add soft dirty and userfaultfd write protect tracking for RISC-V. The patches 1 and 2 add macros to allow architectures to define their own checks if the soft-dirty / uffd_wp PTE bits are available, in other words for RISC-V, the Svrsw60t59b extension is supported on which device the kernel is running. Also patch1-2 are removing "ifdef CONFIG_MEM_SOFT_DIRTY" "ifdef CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_USERFAULTFD_WP" and "ifdef CONFIG_PTE_MARKER_UFFD_WP" in favor of checks which if not overridden by the architecture, no change in behavior is expected. This patchset has been tested with kselftest mm suite in which soft-dirty, madv_populate, test_unmerge_uffd_wp, and uffd-unit-tests run and pass, and no regressions are observed in any of the other tests. This patch (of 6): Some platforms can customize the PTE PMD entry soft-dirty bit making it unavailable even if the architecture provides the resource. Add an API which architectures can define their specific implementations to detect if soft-dirty bit is available on which device the kernel is running. This patch is removing "ifdef CONFIG_MEM_SOFT_DIRTY" in favor of pgtable_supports_soft_dirty() checks that defaults to IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_MEM_SOFT_DIRTY), if not overridden by the architecture, no change in behavior is expected. We make sure to never set VM_SOFTDIRTY if !pgtable_supports_soft_dirty(), so we will never run into VM_SOFTDIRTY checks.

Without batching, in our testing on an arm64 Android device with UFFD GC, which uses MOVE ioctl for compaction, we observed that out of the total time spent in move_pages_pte(), over 40% is in ptep_clear_flush(), and ~20% in vm_normal_folio().

mm: preserve RWP marker across PTE rewrites The uffd PTE bit must survive any kernel path that rewrites a PTE on a VM_UFFD_RWP VMA, otherwise the marker that carries PAGE_NONE semantics is silently dropped and the next access leaks past RWP tracking. Wire the preservation through every path that rewrites a VM_UFFD_RWP PTE. Swap and device-exclusive: do_swap_page(), restore_exclusive_pte(), and unuse_pte() (swapoff()) re-apply PAGE_NONE when the swap PTE carries the uffd bit and the VMA has VM_UFFD_RWP. Migration: remove_migration_pte() and remove_migration_pmd() do the same after the migration entry is replaced with a real PTE/PMD. Fork: __copy_present_ptes(), copy_present_page(), copy_nonpresent_pte(), copy_huge_pmd(), copy_huge_non_present_pmd(), and copy_hugetlb_page_range() keep the uffd bit on the child when the destination VMA has VM_UFFD_RWP, matching the existing VM_UFFD_WP handling. Add VM_UFFD_RWP to VM_COPY_ON_FORK so the flag itself propagates. mprotect(): change_pte_range() and change_huge_pmd() restore PAGE_NONE after pte_modify()/pmd_modify() have recomputed the base protection from a (possibly user-changed) vm_page_prot. pte_modify() preserves _PAGE_UFFD, so the bit stays; we just have to force PAGE_NONE back on top.

mm/userfaultfd: don't lock anon_vma when performing UFFDIO_MOVE Now that rmap_walk() is guaranteed to be called with the folio lock held, we can stop serializing on the src VMA anon_vma lock when moving an exclusive folio from a src VMA to a dst VMA in UFFDIO_MOVE ioctl. When moving a folio, we modify folio->mapping through folio_move_anon_rmap() and adjust folio->index accordingly. Doing that while we could have concurrent RMAP walks would be dangerous. Therefore, to avoid that, we had to acquire anon_vma of src VMA in write-mode. That meant that when multiple threads called UFFDIO_MOVE concurrently on distinct pages of the same src VMA, they would serialize on it, hurting scalability. In addition to avoiding the scalability bottleneck, this patch also simplifies the complicated lock dance that UFFDIO_MOVE has to go through between RCU, folio-lock, ptl, and anon_vma. folio_move_anon_rmap() already enforces that the folio is locked. So when we have the folio locked we can no longer race with concurrent rmap_walk() as used by folio_referenced() and others who call it on unlocked non-KSM anon folios, and therefore the anon_vma lock is no longer required. Note that this handling is now the same as for other folio_move_anon_rmap() users that also do not hold the anon_vma lock -- namely COW reuse handling (do_wp_page()->wp_can_reuse_anon_folio(), do_huge_pmd_wp_page(), and hugetlb_wp()). These users never required the anon_vma lock as they are only moving the anon VMA closer to the anon_vma leaf of the VMA, for example, from an anon_vma root to a leaf of that root. rmap walks were always able to tolerate that scenario.

userfaultfd: UFFDIO_MOVE uABI Implement the uABI of UFFDIO_MOVE ioctl. UFFDIO_COPY performs ~20% better than UFFDIO_MOVE when the application needs pages to be allocated [1]. However, with UFFDIO_MOVE, if pages are available (in userspace) for recycling, as is usually the case in heap compaction algorithms, then we can avoid the page allocation and memcpy (done by UFFDIO_COPY). Also, since the pages are recycled in the userspace, we avoid the need to release (via madvise) the pages back to the kernel [2]. We see over 40% reduction (on a Google pixel 6 device) in the compacting thread's completion time by using UFFDIO_MOVE vs. UFFDIO_COPY. This was measured using a benchmark that emulates a heap compaction implementation using userfaultfd (to allow concurrent accesses by application threads). More details of the usecase are explained in [2]. Furthermore, UFFDIO_MOVE enables moving swapped-out pages without touching them within the same vma. Today, it can only be done by mremap, however it forces splitting the vma. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/all/1425575884-2574-1-git-send-email-aarcange@redhat.com/ [2] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/CA+EESO4uO84SSnBhArH4HvLNhaUQ5nZKNKXqxRCyjniNVjp0Aw@mail.gmail.com/ Update for the ioctl_userfaultfd(2) manpage: UFFDIO_MOVE (Since Linux xxx) Move a continuous memory chunk into the userfault registered range and optionally wake up the blocked thread. The source and destination addresses and the number of bytes to move are specified by the src, dst, and len fields of the uffdio_move structure pointed to by argp: struct uffdio_move { __u64 dst; /* Destination of move */ __u64 src; /* Source of move */ __u64 len; /* Number of bytes to move */ __u64 mode; /* Flags controlling behavior of move */ __s64 move; /* Number of bytes moved, or negated error */ }; The following value may be bitwise ORed in mode to change the behavior of the UFFDIO_MOVE operation: UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_DONTWAKE Do not wake up the thread that waits for page-fault resolution UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_ALLOW_SRC_HOLES Allow holes in the source virtual range that is being moved. When not specified, the holes will result in ENOENT error. When specified, the holes will be accounted as successfully moved memory. This is mostly useful to move hugepage aligned virtual regions without knowing if there are transparent hugepages in the regions or not, but preventing the risk of having to split the hugepage during the operation. The move field is used by the kernel to return the number of bytes that was actually moved, or an error (a negated errno- style value). If the value returned in move doesn't match the value that was specified in len, the operation fails with the error EAGAIN. The move field is output-only; it is not read by the UFFDIO_MOVE operation. The operation may fail for various reasons. Usually, remapping of pages that are not exclusive to the given process fail; once KSM might deduplicate pages or fork() COW-shares pages during fork() with child processes, they are no longer exclusive. Further, the kernel might only perform lightweight checks for detecting whether the pages are exclusive, and return -EBUSY in case that check fails. To make the operation more likely to succeed, KSM should be disabled, fork() should be avoided or MADV_DONTFORK should be configured for the source VMA before fork(). This ioctl(2) operation returns 0 on success. In this case, the entire area was moved. On error, -1 is returned and errno is set to indicate the error. Possible errors include: EAGAIN The number of bytes moved (i.e., the value returned in the move field) does not equal the value that was specified in the len field. EINVAL Either dst or len was not a multiple of the system page size, or the range specified by src and len or dst and len was invalid. EINVAL An invalid bit was specified in the mode field. ENOENT The source virtual memory range has unmapped holes and UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_ALLOW_SRC_HOLES is not set. EEXIST The destination virtual memory range is fully or partially mapped. EBUSY The pages in the source virtual memory range are either pinned or not exclusive to the process. The kernel might only perform lightweight checks for detecting whether the pages are exclusive. To make the operation more likely to succeed, KSM should be disabled, fork() should be avoided or MADV_DONTFORK should be configured for the source virtual memory area before fork(). ENOMEM Allocating memory needed for the operation failed. ESRCH The target process has exited at the time of a UFFDIO_MOVE operation.

mm: introduce generic lazy_mmu helpers The implementation of the lazy MMU mode is currently entirely arch-specific; core code directly calls arch helpers: arch_{enter,leave}_lazy_mmu_mode(). We are about to introduce support for nested lazy MMU sections. As things stand we'd have to duplicate that logic in every arch implementing lazy_mmu - adding to a fair amount of logic already duplicated across lazy_mmu implementations. This patch therefore introduces a new generic layer that calls the existing arch_* helpers. Two pair of calls are introduced: * lazy_mmu_mode_enable() ... lazy_mmu_mode_disable() This is the standard case where the mode is enabled for a given block of code by surrounding it with enable() and disable() calls. * lazy_mmu_mode_pause() ... lazy_mmu_mode_resume() This is for situations where the mode is temporarily disabled by first calling pause() and then resume() (e.g. to prevent any batching from occurring in a critical section). The documentation in <linux/pgtable.h> will be updated in a subsequent patch. No functional change should be introduced at this stage. The implementation of enable()/resume() and disable()/pause() is currently identical, but nesting support will change that. Most of the call sites have been updated using the following Coccinelle script: @@ @@ { ... - arch_enter_lazy_mmu_mode(); + lazy_mmu_mode_enable(); ... - arch_leave_lazy_mmu_mode(); + lazy_mmu_mode_disable(); ... } @@ @@ { ... - arch_leave_lazy_mmu_mode(); + lazy_mmu_mode_pause(); ... - arch_enter_lazy_mmu_mode(); + lazy_mmu_mode_resume(); ... } A couple of notes regarding x86: * Xen is currently the only case where explicit handling is required for lazy MMU when context-switching. This is purely an implementation detail and using the generic lazy_mmu_mode_* functions would cause trouble when nesting support is introduced, because the generic functions must be called from the current task. For that reason we still use arch_leave() and arch_enter() there. * x86 calls arch_flush_lazy_mmu_mode() unconditionally in a few places, but only defines it if PARAVIRT_XXL is selected, and we are removing the fallback in <linux/pgtable.h>. Add a new fallback definition to <asm/pgtable.h> to keep things building.

userfaultfd: opportunistic TLB-flush batching for present pages in MOVE MOVE ioctl's runtime is dominated by TLB-flush cost, which is required for moving present pages. Mitigate this cost by opportunistically batching present contiguous pages for TLB flushing. Without batching, in our testing on an arm64 Android device with UFFD GC, which uses MOVE ioctl for compaction, we observed that out of the total time spent in move_pages_pte(), over 40% is in ptep_clear_flush(), and ~20% in vm_normal_folio(). With batching, the proportion of vm_normal_folio() increases to over 70% of move_pages_pte() without any changes to vm_normal_folio(). Furthermore, time spent within move_pages_pte() is only ~20%, which includes TLB-flush overhead. When the GC intensive benchmark, which was used to gather the above numbers, is run on cuttlefish (qemu android instance on x86_64), the completion time of the benchmark went down from ~45mins to ~20mins. Furthermore, system_server, one of the most performance critical system processes on android, saw over 50% reduction in GC compaction time on an arm64 android device.

userfaultfd: UFFDIO_MOVE uABI Implement the uABI of UFFDIO_MOVE ioctl. UFFDIO_COPY performs ~20% better than UFFDIO_MOVE when the application needs pages to be allocated [1]. However, with UFFDIO_MOVE, if pages are available (in userspace) for recycling, as is usually the case in heap compaction algorithms, then we can avoid the page allocation and memcpy (done by UFFDIO_COPY). Also, since the pages are recycled in the userspace, we avoid the need to release (via madvise) the pages back to the kernel [2]. We see over 40% reduction (on a Google pixel 6 device) in the compacting thread's completion time by using UFFDIO_MOVE vs. UFFDIO_COPY. This was measured using a benchmark that emulates a heap compaction implementation using userfaultfd (to allow concurrent accesses by application threads). More details of the usecase are explained in [2]. Furthermore, UFFDIO_MOVE enables moving swapped-out pages without touching them within the same vma. Today, it can only be done by mremap, however it forces splitting the vma.

mm: fix kernel BUG when userfaultfd_move encounters swapcache userfaultfd_move() checks whether the PTE entry is present or a swap entry. - If the PTE entry is present, move_present_pte() handles folio migration by setting: src_folio->index = linear_page_index(dst_vma, dst_addr); - If the PTE entry is a swap entry, move_swap_pte() simply copies the PTE to the new dst_addr. This approach is incorrect because, even if the PTE is a swap entry, it can still reference a folio that remains in the swap cache. This creates a race window between steps 2 and 4. 1. add_to_swap: The folio is added to the swapcache. 2. try_to_unmap: PTEs are converted to swap entries. 3. pageout: The folio is written back. 4. Swapcache is cleared. If userfaultfd_move() occurs in the window between steps 2 and 4, after the swap PTE has been moved to the destination, accessing the destination triggers do_swap_page(), which may locate the folio in the swapcache. However, since the folio's index has not been updated to match the destination VMA, do_swap_page() will detect a mismatch. This can result in two critical issues depending on the system configuration. If KSM is disabled, both small and large folios can trigger a BUG during the add_rmap operation due to: page_pgoff(folio, page) != linear_page_index(vma, address) [ 13.336953] page: refcount:6 mapcount:1 mapping:00000000f43db19c index:0xffffaf150 pfn:0x4667c [ 13.337520] head: order:2 mapcount:1 entire_mapcount:0 nr_pages_mapped:1 pincount:0 [ 13.337716] memcg:ffff00000405f000 [ 13.337849] anon flags: 0x3fffc0000020459(locked|uptodate|dirty|owner_priv_1|head|swapbacked|node=0|zone=0|lastcpupid=0xffff) [ 13.338630] raw: 03fffc0000020459 ffff80008507b538 ffff80008507b538 ffff000006260361 [ 13.338831] raw: 0000000ffffaf150 0000000000004000 0000000600000000 ffff00000405f000 [ 13.339031] head: 03fffc0000020459 ffff80008507b538 ffff80008507b538 ffff000006260361 [ 13.339204] head: 0000000ffffaf150 0000000000004000 0000000600000000 ffff00000405f000 [ 13.339375] head: 03fffc0000000202 fffffdffc0199f01 ffffffff00000000 0000000000000001 [ 13.339546] head: 0000000000000004 0000000000000000 00000000ffffffff 0000000000000000 [ 13.339736] page dumped because: VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(page_pgoff(folio, page) != linear_page_index(vma, address)) [ 13.340190] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 13.340316] kernel BUG at mm/rmap.c:1380!

This patch also checks the swapcache when handling swap entries. If a match is found in the swapcache, it processes it similarly to a present PTE. However, there are some differences. For example, the folio is no longer exclusive because folio_try_share_anon_rmap_pte() is performed during unmapping. Furthermore, in the case of swapcache, the folio has already been unmapped, eliminating the risk of concurrent rmap walks and removing the need to acquire src_folio's anon_vma or lock. Note that for large folios, in the swapcache handling path, we directly return -EBUSY since split_folio() will return -EBUSY regardless if the folio is under writeback or unmapped. This is not an urgent issue, so a follow-up patch may address it separately.

This patch also checks the swapcache when handling swap entries. If a match is found in the swapcache, it processes it similarly to a present PTE. However, there are some differences. For example, the folio is no longer exclusive because folio_try_share_anon_rmap_pte() is performed during unmapping. Furthermore, in the case of swapcache, the folio has already been unmapped, eliminating the risk of concurrent rmap walks and removing the need to acquire src_folio's anon_vma or lock. Note that for large folios, in the swapcache handling path, we directly return -EBUSY since split_folio() will return -EBUSY regardless if the folio is under writeback or unmapped. This is not an urgent issue, so a follow-up patch may address it separately.

mm: userfaultfd: fix race of userfaultfd_move and swap cache This commit fixes two kinds of races, they may have different results: Barry reported a BUG_ON in commit c50f8e6053b0, we may see the same BUG_ON if the filemap lookup returned NULL and folio is added to swap cache after that. If another kind of race is triggered (folio changed after lookup) we may see RSS counter is corrupted: [ 406.893936] BUG: Bad rss-counter state mm:ffff0000c5a9ddc0 type:MM_ANONPAGES val:-1 [ 406.894071] BUG: Bad rss-counter state mm:ffff0000c5a9ddc0 type:MM_SHMEMPAGES val:1 Because the folio is being accounted to the wrong VMA. I'm not sure if there will be any data corruption though, seems no. The issues above are critical already. On seeing a swap entry PTE, userfaultfd_move does a lockless swap cache lookup, and tries to move the found folio to the faulting vma. Currently, it relies on checking the PTE value to ensure that the moved folio still belongs to the src swap entry and that no new folio has been added to the swap cache, which turns out to be unreliable. While working and reviewing the swap table series with Barry, following existing races are observed and reproduced [1]: In the example below, move_pages_pte is moving src_pte to dst_pte, where src_pte is a swap entry PTE holding swap entry S1, and S1 is not in the swap cache: CPU1 CPU2 userfaultfd_move move_pages_pte() entry = pte_to_swp_entry(orig_src_pte); // Here it got entry = S1 ... < interrupted> ... <swapin src_pte, alloc and use folio A> // folio A is a new allocated folio // and get installed into src_pte <frees swap entry S1> // src_pte now points to folio A, S1 // has swap count == 0, it can be freed // by folio_swap_swap or swap // allocator's reclaim. <try to swap out another folio B> // folio B is a folio in another VMA. <put folio B to swap cache using S1 > // S1 is freed, folio B can use it // for swap out with no problem. ... folio = filemap_get_folio(S1) // Got folio B here !!! ... < interrupted again> ... <swapin folio B and free S1> // Now S1 is free to be used again. <swapout src_pte & folio A using S1> // Now src_pte is a swap entry PTE // holding S1 again. folio_trylock(folio) move_swap_pte double_pt_lock is_pte_pages_stable // Check passed because src_pte == S1 folio_move_anon_rmap(...) // Moved invalid folio B here !!! The race window is very short and requires multiple collisions of multiple rare events, so it's very unlikely to happen, but with a deliberately constructed reproducer and increased time window, it can be reproduced easily. This can be fixed by checking if the folio returned by filemap is the valid swap cache folio after acquiring the folio lock. Another similar race is possible: filemap_get_folio may return NULL, but folio (A) could be swapped in and then swapped out again using the same swap entry after the lookup. In such a case, folio (A) may remain in the swap cache, so it must be moved too: CPU1 CPU2 userfaultfd_move move_pages_pte() entry = pte_to_swp_entry(orig_src_pte); // Here it got entry = S1, and S1 is not in swap cache folio = filemap_get_folio(S1) // Got NULL ... < interrupted again> ... <swapin folio A and free S1> <swapout folio A re-using S1> move_swap_pte double_pt_lock is_pte_pages_stable // Check passed because src_pte == S1 folio_move_anon_rmap(...) // folio A is ignored !!! Fix this by checking the swap cache again after acquiring the src_pte lock. And to avoid the filemap overhead, we check swap_map directly [2]. The SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO path does make the problem more complex, but so far we don't need to worry about that, since folios can only be exposed to the swap cache in the swap out path, and this is covered in this patch by checking the swap cache again after acquiring the src_pte lock. Testing with a simple C program that allocates and moves several GB of memory did not show any observable performance change.

userfaultfd: UFFDIO_MOVE uABI Implement the uABI of UFFDIO_MOVE ioctl. UFFDIO_COPY performs ~20% better than UFFDIO_MOVE when the application needs pages to be allocated [1]. However, with UFFDIO_MOVE, if pages are available (in userspace) for recycling, as is usually the case in heap compaction algorithms, then we can avoid the page allocation and memcpy (done by UFFDIO_COPY). Also, since the pages are recycled in the userspace, we avoid the need to release (via madvise) the pages back to the kernel [2]. We see over 40% reduction (on a Google pixel 6 device) in the compacting thread's completion time by using UFFDIO_MOVE vs. UFFDIO_COPY. This was measured using a benchmark that emulates a heap compaction implementation using userfaultfd (to allow concurrent accesses by application threads). More details of the usecase are explained in [2]. Furthermore, UFFDIO_MOVE enables moving swapped-out pages without touching them within the same vma. Today, it can only be done by mremap, however it forces splitting the vma.

The source and destination addresses and the number of bytes to move are specified by the src, dst, and len fields of the uffdio_move structure pointed to by argp: struct uffdio_move { __u64 dst; /* Destination of move */ __u64 src; /* Source of move */ __u64 len; /* Number of bytes to move */ __u64 mode; /* Flags controlling behavior of move */ __s64 move; /* Number of bytes moved, or negated error */ }; The following value may be bitwise ORed in mode to change the behavior of the UFFDIO_MOVE operation: UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_DONTWAKE Do not wake up the thread that waits for page-fault resolution UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_ALLOW_SRC_HOLES Allow holes in the source virtual range that is being moved. When not specified, the holes will result in ENOENT error. When specified, the holes will be accounted as successfully moved memory. This is mostly useful to move hugepage aligned virtual regions without knowing if there are transparent hugepages in the regions or not, but preventing the risk of having to split the hugepage during the operation. The move field is used by the kernel to return the number of bytes that was actually moved, or an error (a negated errno- style value). If the value returned in move doesn't match the value that was specified in len, the operation fails with the error EAGAIN. The move field is output-only; it is not read by the UFFDIO_MOVE operation. The operation may fail for various reasons. Usually, remapping of pages that are not exclusive to the given process fail; once KSM might deduplicate pages or fork() COW-shares pages during fork() with child processes, they are no longer exclusive. Further, the kernel might only perform lightweight checks for detecting whether the pages are exclusive, and return -EBUSY in case that check fails. To make the operation more likely to succeed, KSM should be disabled, fork() should be avoided or MADV_DONTFORK should be configured for the source VMA before fork(). This ioctl(2) operation returns 0 on success. In this case, the entire area was moved. On error, -1 is returned and errno is set to indicate the error. Possible errors include: EAGAIN The number of bytes moved (i.e., the value returned in the move field) does not equal the value that was specified in the len field. EINVAL Either dst or len was not a multiple of the system page size, or the range specified by src and len or dst and len was invalid. EINVAL An invalid bit was specified in the mode field. ENOENT The source virtual memory range has unmapped holes and UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_ALLOW_SRC_HOLES is not set. EEXIST The destination virtual memory range is fully or partially mapped. EBUSY The pages in the source virtual memory range are either pinned or not exclusive to the process. The kernel might only perform lightweight checks for detecting whether the pages are exclusive. To make the operation more likely to succeed, KSM should be disabled, fork() should be avoided or MADV_DONTFORK should be configured for the source virtual memory area before fork(). ENOMEM Allocating memory needed for the operation failed. ESRCH The target process has exited at the time of a UFFDIO_MOVE operation.

userfaultfd: UFFDIO_MOVE uABI Implement the uABI of UFFDIO_MOVE ioctl. UFFDIO_COPY performs ~20% better than UFFDIO_MOVE when the application needs pages to be allocated [1]. However, with UFFDIO_MOVE, if pages are available (in userspace) for recycling, as is usually the case in heap compaction algorithms, then we can avoid the page allocation and memcpy (done by UFFDIO_COPY). Also, since the pages are recycled in the userspace, we avoid the need to release (via madvise) the pages back to the kernel [2]. We see over 40% reduction (on a Google pixel 6 device) in the compacting thread's completion time by using UFFDIO_MOVE vs. UFFDIO_COPY. This was measured using a benchmark that emulates a heap compaction implementation using userfaultfd (to allow concurrent accesses by application threads). More details of the usecase are explained in [2]. Furthermore, UFFDIO_MOVE enables moving swapped-out pages without touching them within the same vma. Today, it can only be done by mremap, however it forces splitting the vma.

The source and destination addresses and the number of bytes to move are specified by the src, dst, and len fields of the uffdio_move structure pointed to by argp: struct uffdio_move { __u64 dst; /* Destination of move */ __u64 src; /* Source of move */ __u64 len; /* Number of bytes to move */ __u64 mode; /* Flags controlling behavior of move */ __s64 move; /* Number of bytes moved, or negated error */ }; The following value may be bitwise ORed in mode to change the behavior of the UFFDIO_MOVE operation: UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_DONTWAKE Do not wake up the thread that waits for page-fault resolution UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_ALLOW_SRC_HOLES Allow holes in the source virtual range that is being moved.

mm: fix kernel BUG when userfaultfd_move encounters swapcache userfaultfd_move() checks whether the PTE entry is present or a swap entry. - If the PTE entry is present, move_present_pte() handles folio migration by setting: src_folio->index = linear_page_index(dst_vma, dst_addr); - If the PTE entry is a swap entry, move_swap_pte() simply copies the PTE to the new dst_addr. This approach is incorrect because, even if the PTE is a swap entry, it can still reference a folio that remains in the swap cache. This creates a race window between steps 2 and 4. 1. add_to_swap: The folio is added to the swapcache. 2. try_to_unmap: PTEs are converted to swap entries. 3. pageout: The folio is written back. 4. Swapcache is cleared. If userfaultfd_move() occurs in the window between steps 2 and 4, after the swap PTE has been moved to the destination, accessing the destination triggers do_swap_page(), which may locate the folio in the swapcache. However, since the folio's index has not been updated to match the destination VMA, do_swap_page() will detect a mismatch. This can result in two critical issues depending on the system configuration. If KSM is disabled, both small and large folios can trigger a BUG during the add_rmap operation due to: page_pgoff(folio, page) != linear_page_index(vma, address) [ 13.336953] page: refcount:6 mapcount:1 mapping:00000000f43db19c index:0xffffaf150 pfn:0x4667c [ 13.337520] head: order:2 mapcount:1 entire_mapcount:0 nr_pages_mapped:1 pincount:0 [ 13.337716] memcg:ffff00000405f000 [ 13.337849] anon flags: 0x3fffc0000020459(locked|uptodate|dirty|owner_priv_1|head|swapbacked|node=0|zone=0|lastcpupid=0xffff) [ 13.338630] raw: 03fffc0000020459 ffff80008507b538 ffff80008507b538 ffff000006260361 [ 13.338831] raw: 0000000ffffaf150 0000000000004000 0000000600000000 ffff00000405f000 [ 13.339031] head: 03fffc0000020459 ffff80008507b538 ffff80008507b538 ffff000006260361 [ 13.339204] head: 0000000ffffaf150 0000000000004000 0000000600000000 ffff00000405f000 [ 13.339375] head: 03fffc0000000202 fffffdffc0199f01 ffffffff00000000 0000000000000001 [ 13.339546] head: 0000000000000004 0000000000000000 00000000ffffffff 0000000000000000 [ 13.339736] page dumped because: VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(page_pgoff(folio, page) != linear_page_index(vma, address)) [ 13.340190] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 13.340316] kernel BUG at mm/rmap.c:1380!

This patch also checks the swapcache when handling swap entries. If a match is found in the swapcache, it processes it similarly to a present PTE. However, there are some differences. For example, the folio is no longer exclusive because folio_try_share_anon_rmap_pte() is performed during unmapping. Furthermore, in the case of swapcache, the folio has already been unmapped, eliminating the risk of concurrent rmap walks and removing the need to acquire src_folio's anon_vma or lock. Note that for large folios, in the swapcache handling path, we directly return -EBUSY since split_folio() will return -EBUSY regardless if the folio is under writeback or unmapped. This is not an urgent issue, so a follow-up patch may address it separately.

mm/rmap: use anon pgoff to track MAP_PRIVATE file-backed anon folios Currently anonymous folios belonging to CoW'd MAP_PRIVATE file-backed mappings are indexed by their page offset within the file in which they were originally mapped. This differs from anonymous folios belonging to pure anon mappings which are indexed by their anonymous page offset (the address at which they'd belong in the VMA when first faulted). This change fixes this inconsistency, always indexing anonymous folios by their anonymous page offset regardless of the VMA to which they belong. The foundations have been laid such that we need only switch this functionality on such by: * Using linear_anon_page_index() in __folio_set_anon() to assign the folio's index to the anonymous linear index rather than the file-backed one. * Otherwise using linear_anon_page_index() in all instances where anonymous folios are being referenced or manipulated. * Replacing vma_address() with vma_filebacked_address() or vma_anon_address() as appropriate. * Updating the merging logic to check that anonymous page offsets are aligned as well as filebacked ones for MAP_PRIVATE file-backed VMAs, introducing needs_adjacent_anon_pgoff() to figure out when this is required. * Updating linear_folio_page_index() to invoke linear_anon_page_index() if the folio is anonymous. * Updating vma_address_end() to use the VMA's anonymous page offset when pvmw->pgoff is anonymous. * Correcting folio_within_range() to use anonymous page offset for anonymous folios. This will have no impact on merging of anonymous VMAs, whose page offset and anonymous page offset are identical, nor will it impact shared file-backed VMAs, which will continue to be merged based on the file-backed page offset. However, MAP_PRIVATE file-backed mappings must now be aligned on anonymous page offset as well. In most instances this should have no impact on merging of file-backed mappings, which are usually not merged all that often, let alone MAP_PRIVATE mapped ones, and rarely remapped and faulted before being moved back in place (the case in which a merge may now fail). One subtle impact of this change is in NUMA interleaving - since commit 88c91dc58582 ("mempolicy: migration attempt to match interleave nodes"), migration heuristically tries to maintain interleaving behaviour matching the policy using folio indices. When doing migration of CoW'd MAP_PRIVATE-file backed ranges, the 'base' upon which the interleaving behaviour is performed will vary for these ranges. However the commit notes that ranges spanning multiple VMAs will already cause varying bases, and that this is an acceptable approximation. It is very unlikely real world use-cases will be impacted by this (MAP_PRIVATE file-backed mappings are already an edge case), and all that will happen is that such ranges will cause interleaving to be rotated over the CoW'd range, with little to no impact. This commit lays the foundations for future scalable CoW work which needs to track some remaps, meaning that most remap tracking can be avoided, and in nearly all cases the anonymous page offset will be able to be used to quickly find the VMA in an mm. Note that the need_rmap_locks check doesn't need to be updated, as any remapping will offset both the anonymous and file-backed page offset, so it suffices to check only one.

mm: userfaultfd: fix race of userfaultfd_move and swap cache This commit fixes two kinds of races, they may have different results: Barry reported a BUG_ON in commit c50f8e6053b0, we may see the same BUG_ON if the filemap lookup returned NULL and folio is added to swap cache after that. If another kind of race is triggered (folio changed after lookup) we may see RSS counter is corrupted: [ 406.893936] BUG: Bad rss-counter state mm:ffff0000c5a9ddc0 type:MM_ANONPAGES val:-1 [ 406.894071] BUG: Bad rss-counter state mm:ffff0000c5a9ddc0 type:MM_SHMEMPAGES val:1 Because the folio is being accounted to the wrong VMA. I'm not sure if there will be any data corruption though, seems no. The issues above are critical already. On seeing a swap entry PTE, userfaultfd_move does a lockless swap cache lookup, and tries to move the found folio to the faulting vma. Currently, it relies on checking the PTE value to ensure that the moved folio still belongs to the src swap entry and that no new folio has been added to the swap cache, which turns out to be unreliable. While working and reviewing the swap table series with Barry, following existing races are observed and reproduced [1]: In the example below, move_pages_pte is moving src_pte to dst_pte, where src_pte is a swap entry PTE holding swap entry S1, and S1 is not in the swap cache: CPU1 CPU2 userfaultfd_move move_pages_pte() entry = pte_to_swp_entry(orig_src_pte); // Here it got entry = S1 ... < interrupted> ... <swapin src_pte, alloc and use folio A> // folio A is a new allocated folio // and get installed into src_pte <frees swap entry S1> // src_pte now points to folio A, S1 // has swap count == 0, it can be freed // by folio_swap_swap or swap // allocator's reclaim. <try to swap out another folio B> // folio B is a folio in another VMA. <put folio B to swap cache using S1 > // S1 is freed, folio B can use it // for swap out with no problem. ... folio = filemap_get_folio(S1) // Got folio B here !!! ... < interrupted again> ... <swapin folio B and free S1> // Now S1 is free to be used again. <swapout src_pte & folio A using S1> // Now src_pte is a swap entry PTE // holding S1 again. folio_trylock(folio) move_swap_pte double_pt_lock is_pte_pages_stable // Check passed because src_pte == S1 folio_move_anon_rmap(...) // Moved invalid folio B here !!! The race window is very short and requires multiple collisions of multiple rare events, so it's very unlikely to happen, but with a deliberately constructed reproducer and increased time window, it can be reproduced easily. This can be fixed by checking if the folio returned by filemap is the valid swap cache folio after acquiring the folio lock. Another similar race is possible: filemap_get_folio may return NULL, but folio (A) could be swapped in and then swapped out again using the same swap entry after the lookup. In such a case, folio (A) may remain in the swap cache, so it must be moved too: CPU1 CPU2 userfaultfd_move move_pages_pte() entry = pte_to_swp_entry(orig_src_pte); // Here it got entry = S1, and S1 is not in swap cache folio = filemap_get_folio(S1) // Got NULL ... < interrupted again> ... <swapin folio A and free S1> <swapout folio A re-using S1> move_swap_pte double_pt_lock is_pte_pages_stable // Check passed because src_pte == S1 folio_move_anon_rmap(...) // folio A is ignored !!! Fix this by checking the swap cache again after acquiring the src_pte lock. And to avoid the filemap overhead, we check swap_map directly [2]. The SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO path does make the problem more complex, but so far we don't need to worry about that, since folios can only be exposed to the swap cache in the swap out path, and this is covered in this patch by checking the swap cache again after acquiring the src_pte lock. Testing with a simple C program that allocates and moves several GB of memory did not show any observable performance change.

mm: fix kernel BUG when userfaultfd_move encounters swapcache userfaultfd_move() checks whether the PTE entry is present or a swap entry. - If the PTE entry is present, move_present_pte() handles folio migration by setting: src_folio->index = linear_page_index(dst_vma, dst_addr); - If the PTE entry is a swap entry, move_swap_pte() simply copies the PTE to the new dst_addr. This approach is incorrect because, even if the PTE is a swap entry, it can still reference a folio that remains in the swap cache. This creates a race window between steps 2 and 4. 1. add_to_swap: The folio is added to the swapcache. 2. try_to_unmap: PTEs are converted to swap entries. 3. pageout: The folio is written back. 4. Swapcache is cleared. If userfaultfd_move() occurs in the window between steps 2 and 4, after the swap PTE has been moved to the destination, accessing the destination triggers do_swap_page(), which may locate the folio in the swapcache. However, since the folio's index has not been updated to match the destination VMA, do_swap_page() will detect a mismatch. This can result in two critical issues depending on the system configuration. If KSM is disabled, both small and large folios can trigger a BUG during the add_rmap operation due to: page_pgoff(folio, page) != linear_page_index(vma, address) [ 13.336953] page: refcount:6 mapcount:1 mapping:00000000f43db19c index:0xffffaf150 pfn:0x4667c [ 13.337520] head: order:2 mapcount:1 entire_mapcount:0 nr_pages_mapped:1 pincount:0 [ 13.337716] memcg:ffff00000405f000 [ 13.337849] anon flags: 0x3fffc0000020459(locked|uptodate|dirty|owner_priv_1|head|swapbacked|node=0|zone=0|lastcpupid=0xffff) [ 13.338630] raw: 03fffc0000020459 ffff80008507b538 ffff80008507b538 ffff000006260361 [ 13.338831] raw: 0000000ffffaf150 0000000000004000 0000000600000000 ffff00000405f000 [ 13.339031] head: 03fffc0000020459 ffff80008507b538 ffff80008507b538 ffff000006260361 [ 13.339204] head: 0000000ffffaf150 0000000000004000 0000000600000000 ffff00000405f000 [ 13.339375] head: 03fffc0000000202 fffffdffc0199f01 ffffffff00000000 0000000000000001 [ 13.339546] head: 0000000000000004 0000000000000000 00000000ffffffff 0000000000000000 [ 13.339736] page dumped because: VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(page_pgoff(folio, page) != linear_page_index(vma, address)) [ 13.340190] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 13.340316] kernel BUG at mm/rmap.c:1380!

This patch also checks the swapcache when handling swap entries. If a match is found in the swapcache, it processes it similarly to a present PTE. However, there are some differences. For example, the folio is no longer exclusive because folio_try_share_anon_rmap_pte() is performed during unmapping. Furthermore, in the case of swapcache, the folio has already been unmapped, eliminating the risk of concurrent rmap walks and removing the need to acquire src_folio's anon_vma or lock. Note that for large folios, in the swapcache handling path, we directly return -EBUSY since split_folio() will return -EBUSY regardless if the folio is under writeback or unmapped. This is not an urgent issue, so a follow-up patch may address it separately.

userfaultfd: UFFDIO_MOVE uABI Implement the uABI of UFFDIO_MOVE ioctl. UFFDIO_COPY performs ~20% better than UFFDIO_MOVE when the application needs pages to be allocated [1]. However, with UFFDIO_MOVE, if pages are available (in userspace) for recycling, as is usually the case in heap compaction algorithms, then we can avoid the page allocation and memcpy (done by UFFDIO_COPY). Also, since the pages are recycled in the userspace, we avoid the need to release (via madvise) the pages back to the kernel [2]. We see over 40% reduction (on a Google pixel 6 device) in the compacting thread's completion time by using UFFDIO_MOVE vs. UFFDIO_COPY. This was measured using a benchmark that emulates a heap compaction implementation using userfaultfd (to allow concurrent accesses by application threads). More details of the usecase are explained in [2]. Furthermore, UFFDIO_MOVE enables moving swapped-out pages without touching them within the same vma. Today, it can only be done by mremap, however it forces splitting the vma. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/all/1425575884-2574-1-git-send-email-aarcange@redhat.com/ [2] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/CA+EESO4uO84SSnBhArH4HvLNhaUQ5nZKNKXqxRCyjniNVjp0Aw@mail.gmail.com/ Update for the ioctl_userfaultfd(2) manpage: UFFDIO_MOVE (Since Linux xxx) Move a continuous memory chunk into the userfault registered range and optionally wake up the blocked thread. The source and destination addresses and the number of bytes to move are specified by the src, dst, and len fields of the uffdio_move structure pointed to by argp: struct uffdio_move { __u64 dst; /* Destination of move */ __u64 src; /* Source of move */ __u64 len; /* Number of bytes to move */ __u64 mode; /* Flags controlling behavior of move */ __s64 move; /* Number of bytes moved, or negated error */ }; The following value may be bitwise ORed in mode to change the behavior of the UFFDIO_MOVE operation: UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_DONTWAKE Do not wake up the thread that waits for page-fault resolution UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_ALLOW_SRC_HOLES Allow holes in the source virtual range that is being moved. When not specified, the holes will result in ENOENT error. When specified, the holes will be accounted as successfully moved memory. This is mostly useful to move hugepage aligned virtual regions without knowing if there are transparent hugepages in the regions or not, but preventing the risk of having to split the hugepage during the operation.

mm: softdirty: add pgtable_supports_soft_dirty() Patch series "mm: Add soft-dirty and uffd-wp support for RISC-V", v15. This patchset adds support for Svrsw60t59b [1] extension which is ratified now, also add soft dirty and userfaultfd write protect tracking for RISC-V. The patches 1 and 2 add macros to allow architectures to define their own checks if the soft-dirty / uffd_wp PTE bits are available, in other words for RISC-V, the Svrsw60t59b extension is supported on which device the kernel is running. Also patch1-2 are removing "ifdef CONFIG_MEM_SOFT_DIRTY" "ifdef CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_USERFAULTFD_WP" and "ifdef CONFIG_PTE_MARKER_UFFD_WP" in favor of checks which if not overridden by the architecture, no change in behavior is expected. This patchset has been tested with kselftest mm suite in which soft-dirty, madv_populate, test_unmerge_uffd_wp, and uffd-unit-tests run and pass, and no regressions are observed in any of the other tests. This patch (of 6): Some platforms can customize the PTE PMD entry soft-dirty bit making it unavailable even if the architecture provides the resource. Add an API which architectures can define their specific implementations to detect if soft-dirty bit is available on which device the kernel is running. This patch is removing "ifdef CONFIG_MEM_SOFT_DIRTY" in favor of pgtable_supports_soft_dirty() checks that defaults to IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_MEM_SOFT_DIRTY), if not overridden by the architecture, no change in behavior is expected. We make sure to never set VM_SOFTDIRTY if !pgtable_supports_soft_dirty(), so we will never run into VM_SOFTDIRTY checks.

mm: preserve RWP marker across PTE rewrites The uffd PTE bit must survive any kernel path that rewrites a PTE on a VM_UFFD_RWP VMA, otherwise the marker that carries PAGE_NONE semantics is silently dropped and the next access leaks past RWP tracking. Wire the preservation through every path that rewrites a VM_UFFD_RWP PTE. Swap and device-exclusive: do_swap_page(), restore_exclusive_pte(), and unuse_pte() (swapoff()) re-apply PAGE_NONE when the swap PTE carries the uffd bit and the VMA has VM_UFFD_RWP. Migration: remove_migration_pte() and remove_migration_pmd() do the same after the migration entry is replaced with a real PTE/PMD. Fork: __copy_present_ptes(), copy_present_page(), copy_nonpresent_pte(), copy_huge_pmd(), copy_huge_non_present_pmd(), and copy_hugetlb_page_range() keep the uffd bit on the child when the destination VMA has VM_UFFD_RWP, matching the existing VM_UFFD_WP handling. Add VM_UFFD_RWP to VM_COPY_ON_FORK so the flag itself propagates. mprotect(): change_pte_range() and change_huge_pmd() restore PAGE_NONE after pte_modify()/pmd_modify() have recomputed the base protection from a (possibly user-changed) vm_page_prot. pte_modify() preserves _PAGE_UFFD, so the bit stays; we just have to force PAGE_NONE back on top.

userfaultfd: UFFDIO_MOVE uABI Implement the uABI of UFFDIO_MOVE ioctl. UFFDIO_COPY performs ~20% better than UFFDIO_MOVE when the application needs pages to be allocated [1]. However, with UFFDIO_MOVE, if pages are available (in userspace) for recycling, as is usually the case in heap compaction algorithms, then we can avoid the page allocation and memcpy (done by UFFDIO_COPY). Also, since the pages are recycled in the userspace, we avoid the need to release (via madvise) the pages back to the kernel [2]. We see over 40% reduction (on a Google pixel 6 device) in the compacting thread's completion time by using UFFDIO_MOVE vs. UFFDIO_COPY. This was measured using a benchmark that emulates a heap compaction implementation using userfaultfd (to allow concurrent accesses by application threads). More details of the usecase are explained in [2]. Furthermore, UFFDIO_MOVE enables moving swapped-out pages without touching them within the same vma. Today, it can only be done by mremap, however it forces splitting the vma.

userfaultfd: opportunistic TLB-flush batching for present pages in MOVE MOVE ioctl's runtime is dominated by TLB-flush cost, which is required for moving present pages. Mitigate this cost by opportunistically batching present contiguous pages for TLB flushing. Without batching, in our testing on an arm64 Android device with UFFD GC, which uses MOVE ioctl for compaction, we observed that out of the total time spent in move_pages_pte(), over 40% is in ptep_clear_flush(), and ~20% in vm_normal_folio(). With batching, the proportion of vm_normal_folio() increases to over 70% of move_pages_pte() without any changes to vm_normal_folio(). Furthermore, time spent within move_pages_pte() is only ~20%, which includes TLB-flush overhead. When the GC intensive benchmark, which was used to gather the above numbers, is run on cuttlefish (qemu android instance on x86_64), the completion time of the benchmark went down from ~45mins to ~20mins. Furthermore, system_server, one of the most performance critical system processes on android, saw over 50% reduction in GC compaction time on an arm64 android device.

userfaultfd: UFFDIO_MOVE uABI Implement the uABI of UFFDIO_MOVE ioctl. UFFDIO_COPY performs ~20% better than UFFDIO_MOVE when the application needs pages to be allocated [1]. However, with UFFDIO_MOVE, if pages are available (in userspace) for recycling, as is usually the case in heap compaction algorithms, then we can avoid the page allocation and memcpy (done by UFFDIO_COPY). Also, since the pages are recycled in the userspace, we avoid the need to release (via madvise) the pages back to the kernel [2]. We see over 40% reduction (on a Google pixel 6 device) in the compacting thread's completion time by using UFFDIO_MOVE vs. UFFDIO_COPY. This was measured using a benchmark that emulates a heap compaction implementation using userfaultfd (to allow concurrent accesses by application threads). More details of the usecase are explained in [2]. Furthermore, UFFDIO_MOVE enables moving swapped-out pages without touching them within the same vma. Today, it can only be done by mremap, however it forces splitting the vma.

This is mostly useful to move hugepage aligned virtual regions without knowing if there are transparent hugepages in the regions or not, but preventing the risk of having to split the hugepage during the operation. The move field is used by the kernel to return the number of bytes that was actually moved, or an error (a negated errno- style value). If the value returned in move doesn't match the value that was specified in len, the operation fails with the error EAGAIN. The move field is output-only; it is not read by the UFFDIO_MOVE operation.

userfaultfd: opportunistic TLB-flush batching for present pages in MOVE MOVE ioctl's runtime is dominated by TLB-flush cost, which is required for moving present pages. Mitigate this cost by opportunistically batching present contiguous pages for TLB flushing. Without batching, in our testing on an arm64 Android device with UFFD GC, which uses MOVE ioctl for compaction, we observed that out of the total time spent in move_pages_pte(), over 40% is in ptep_clear_flush(), and ~20% in vm_normal_folio(). With batching, the proportion of vm_normal_folio() increases to over 70% of move_pages_pte() without any changes to vm_normal_folio(). Furthermore, time spent within move_pages_pte() is only ~20%, which includes TLB-flush overhead. When the GC intensive benchmark, which was used to gather the above numbers, is run on cuttlefish (qemu android instance on x86_64), the completion time of the benchmark went down from ~45mins to ~20mins. Furthermore, system_server, one of the most performance critical system processes on android, saw over 50% reduction in GC compaction time on an arm64 android device.

mm: fix kernel BUG when userfaultfd_move encounters swapcache userfaultfd_move() checks whether the PTE entry is present or a swap entry. - If the PTE entry is present, move_present_pte() handles folio migration by setting: src_folio->index = linear_page_index(dst_vma, dst_addr); - If the PTE entry is a swap entry, move_swap_pte() simply copies the PTE to the new dst_addr. This approach is incorrect because, even if the PTE is a swap entry, it can still reference a folio that remains in the swap cache. This creates a race window between steps 2 and 4. 1. add_to_swap: The folio is added to the swapcache. 2. try_to_unmap: PTEs are converted to swap entries. 3. pageout: The folio is written back. 4. Swapcache is cleared. If userfaultfd_move() occurs in the window between steps 2 and 4, after the swap PTE has been moved to the destination, accessing the destination triggers do_swap_page(), which may locate the folio in the swapcache. However, since the folio's index has not been updated to match the destination VMA, do_swap_page() will detect a mismatch.

This patch also checks the swapcache when handling swap entries. If a match is found in the swapcache, it processes it similarly to a present PTE. However, there are some differences. For example, the folio is no longer exclusive because folio_try_share_anon_rmap_pte() is performed during unmapping. Furthermore, in the case of swapcache, the folio has already been unmapped, eliminating the risk of concurrent rmap walks and removing the need to acquire src_folio's anon_vma or lock. Note that for large folios, in the swapcache handling path, we directly return -EBUSY since split_folio() will return -EBUSY regardless if the folio is under writeback or unmapped. This is not an urgent issue, so a follow-up patch may address it separately.

userfaultfd: UFFDIO_MOVE uABI Implement the uABI of UFFDIO_MOVE ioctl. UFFDIO_COPY performs ~20% better than UFFDIO_MOVE when the application needs pages to be allocated [1]. However, with UFFDIO_MOVE, if pages are available (in userspace) for recycling, as is usually the case in heap compaction algorithms, then we can avoid the page allocation and memcpy (done by UFFDIO_COPY). Also, since the pages are recycled in the userspace, we avoid the need to release (via madvise) the pages back to the kernel [2]. We see over 40% reduction (on a Google pixel 6 device) in the compacting thread's completion time by using UFFDIO_MOVE vs. UFFDIO_COPY. This was measured using a benchmark that emulates a heap compaction implementation using userfaultfd (to allow concurrent accesses by application threads). More details of the usecase are explained in [2]. Furthermore, UFFDIO_MOVE enables moving swapped-out pages without touching them within the same vma. Today, it can only be done by mremap, however it forces splitting the vma.

When not specified, the holes will result in ENOENT error. When specified, the holes will be accounted as successfully moved memory. This is mostly useful to move hugepage aligned virtual regions without knowing if there are transparent hugepages in the regions or not, but preventing the risk of having to split the hugepage during the operation. The move field is used by the kernel to return the number of bytes that was actually moved, or an error (a negated errno- style value). If the value returned in move doesn't match the value that was specified in len, the operation fails with the error EAGAIN. The move field is output-only; it is not read by the UFFDIO_MOVE operation. The operation may fail for various reasons. Usually, remapping of pages that are not exclusive to the given process fail; once KSM might deduplicate pages or fork() COW-shares pages during fork() with child processes, they are no longer exclusive. Further, the kernel might only perform lightweight checks for detecting whether the pages are exclusive, and return -EBUSY in case that check fails. To make the operation more likely to succeed, KSM should be disabled, fork() should be avoided or MADV_DONTFORK should be configured for the source VMA before fork(). This ioctl(2) operation returns 0 on success. In this case, the entire area was moved. On error, -1 is returned and errno is set to indicate the error. Possible errors include: EAGAIN The number of bytes moved (i.e., the value returned in the move field) does not equal the value that was specified in the len field.

userfaultfd: opportunistic TLB-flush batching for present pages in MOVE MOVE ioctl's runtime is dominated by TLB-flush cost, which is required for moving present pages. Mitigate this cost by opportunistically batching present contiguous pages for TLB flushing. Without batching, in our testing on an arm64 Android device with UFFD GC, which uses MOVE ioctl for compaction, we observed that out of the total time spent in move_pages_pte(), over 40% is in ptep_clear_flush(), and ~20% in vm_normal_folio(). With batching, the proportion of vm_normal_folio() increases to over 70% of move_pages_pte() without any changes to vm_normal_folio(). Furthermore, time spent within move_pages_pte() is only ~20%, which includes TLB-flush overhead. When the GC intensive benchmark, which was used to gather the above numbers, is run on cuttlefish (qemu android instance on x86_64), the completion time of the benchmark went down from ~45mins to ~20mins. Furthermore, system_server, one of the most performance critical system processes on android, saw over 50% reduction in GC compaction time on an arm64 android device.

userfaultfd: opportunistic TLB-flush batching for present pages in MOVE MOVE ioctl's runtime is dominated by TLB-flush cost, which is required for moving present pages. Mitigate this cost by opportunistically batching present contiguous pages for TLB flushing. Without batching, in our testing on an arm64 Android device with UFFD GC, which uses MOVE ioctl for compaction, we observed that out of the total time spent in move_pages_pte(), over 40% is in ptep_clear_flush(), and ~20% in vm_normal_folio(). With batching, the proportion of vm_normal_folio() increases to over 70% of move_pages_pte() without any changes to vm_normal_folio(). Furthermore, time spent within move_pages_pte() is only ~20%, which includes TLB-flush overhead. When the GC intensive benchmark, which was used to gather the above numbers, is run on cuttlefish (qemu android instance on x86_64), the completion time of the benchmark went down from ~45mins to ~20mins. Furthermore, system_server, one of the most performance critical system processes on android, saw over 50% reduction in GC compaction time on an arm64 android device.

userfaultfd: UFFDIO_MOVE uABI Implement the uABI of UFFDIO_MOVE ioctl. UFFDIO_COPY performs ~20% better than UFFDIO_MOVE when the application needs pages to be allocated [1]. However, with UFFDIO_MOVE, if pages are available (in userspace) for recycling, as is usually the case in heap compaction algorithms, then we can avoid the page allocation and memcpy (done by UFFDIO_COPY). Also, since the pages are recycled in the userspace, we avoid the need to release (via madvise) the pages back to the kernel [2]. We see over 40% reduction (on a Google pixel 6 device) in the compacting thread's completion time by using UFFDIO_MOVE vs. UFFDIO_COPY. This was measured using a benchmark that emulates a heap compaction implementation using userfaultfd (to allow concurrent accesses by application threads). More details of the usecase are explained in [2]. Furthermore, UFFDIO_MOVE enables moving swapped-out pages without touching them within the same vma. Today, it can only be done by mremap, however it forces splitting the vma.

The source and destination addresses and the number of bytes to move are specified by the src, dst, and len fields of the uffdio_move structure pointed to by argp: struct uffdio_move { __u64 dst; /* Destination of move */ __u64 src; /* Source of move */ __u64 len; /* Number of bytes to move */ __u64 mode; /* Flags controlling behavior of move */ __s64 move; /* Number of bytes moved, or negated error */ }; The following value may be bitwise ORed in mode to change the behavior of the UFFDIO_MOVE operation: UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_DONTWAKE Do not wake up the thread that waits for page-fault resolution UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_ALLOW_SRC_HOLES Allow holes in the source virtual range that is being moved. When not specified, the holes will result in ENOENT error. When specified, the holes will be accounted as successfully moved memory. This is mostly useful to move hugepage aligned virtual regions without knowing if there are transparent hugepages in the regions or not, but preventing the risk of having to split the hugepage during the operation. The move field is used by the kernel to return the number of bytes that was actually moved, or an error (a negated errno- style value). If the value returned in move doesn't match the value that was specified in len, the operation fails with the error EAGAIN. The move field is output-only; it is not read by the UFFDIO_MOVE operation. The operation may fail for various reasons. Usually, remapping of pages that are not exclusive to the given process fail; once KSM might deduplicate pages or fork() COW-shares pages during fork() with child processes, they are no longer exclusive. Further, the kernel might only perform lightweight checks for detecting whether the pages are exclusive, and return -EBUSY in case that check fails. To make the operation more likely to succeed, KSM should be disabled, fork() should be avoided or MADV_DONTFORK should be configured for the source VMA before fork(). This ioctl(2) operation returns 0 on success. In this case, the entire area was moved. On error, -1 is returned and errno is set to indicate the error. Possible errors include: EAGAIN The number of bytes moved (i.e., the value returned in the move field) does not equal the value that was specified in the len field.

userfaultfd: opportunistic TLB-flush batching for present pages in MOVE MOVE ioctl's runtime is dominated by TLB-flush cost, which is required for moving present pages. Mitigate this cost by opportunistically batching present contiguous pages for TLB flushing. Without batching, in our testing on an arm64 Android device with UFFD GC, which uses MOVE ioctl for compaction, we observed that out of the total time spent in move_pages_pte(), over 40% is in ptep_clear_flush(), and ~20% in vm_normal_folio(). With batching, the proportion of vm_normal_folio() increases to over 70% of move_pages_pte() without any changes to vm_normal_folio(). Furthermore, time spent within move_pages_pte() is only ~20%, which includes TLB-flush overhead. When the GC intensive benchmark, which was used to gather the above numbers, is run on cuttlefish (qemu android instance on x86_64), the completion time of the benchmark went down from ~45mins to ~20mins. Furthermore, system_server, one of the most performance critical system processes on android, saw over 50% reduction in GC compaction time on an arm64 android device.

However, with UFFDIO_MOVE, if pages are available (in userspace) for recycling, as is usually the case in heap compaction algorithms, then we can avoid the page allocation and memcpy (done by UFFDIO_COPY). Also, since the pages are recycled in the userspace, we avoid the need to release (via madvise) the pages back to the kernel [2]. We see over 40% reduction (on a Google pixel 6 device) in the compacting thread's completion time by using UFFDIO_MOVE vs. UFFDIO_COPY. This was measured using a benchmark that emulates a heap compaction implementation using userfaultfd (to allow concurrent accesses by application threads). More details of the usecase are explained in [2]. Furthermore, UFFDIO_MOVE enables moving swapped-out pages without touching them within the same vma. Today, it can only be done by mremap, however it forces splitting the vma.

userfaultfd: opportunistic TLB-flush batching for present pages in MOVE MOVE ioctl's runtime is dominated by TLB-flush cost, which is required for moving present pages. Mitigate this cost by opportunistically batching present contiguous pages for TLB flushing. Without batching, in our testing on an arm64 Android device with UFFD GC, which uses MOVE ioctl for compaction, we observed that out of the total time spent in move_pages_pte(), over 40% is in ptep_clear_flush(), and ~20% in vm_normal_folio(). With batching, the proportion of vm_normal_folio() increases to over 70% of move_pages_pte() without any changes to vm_normal_folio(). Furthermore, time spent within move_pages_pte() is only ~20%, which includes TLB-flush overhead. When the GC intensive benchmark, which was used to gather the above numbers, is run on cuttlefish (qemu android instance on x86_64), the completion time of the benchmark went down from ~45mins to ~20mins. Furthermore, system_server, one of the most performance critical system processes on android, saw over 50% reduction in GC compaction time on an arm64 android device.

userfaultfd: UFFDIO_MOVE uABI Implement the uABI of UFFDIO_MOVE ioctl. UFFDIO_COPY performs ~20% better than UFFDIO_MOVE when the application needs pages to be allocated [1]. However, with UFFDIO_MOVE, if pages are available (in userspace) for recycling, as is usually the case in heap compaction algorithms, then we can avoid the page allocation and memcpy (done by UFFDIO_COPY). Also, since the pages are recycled in the userspace, we avoid the need to release (via madvise) the pages back to the kernel [2]. We see over 40% reduction (on a Google pixel 6 device) in the compacting thread's completion time by using UFFDIO_MOVE vs. UFFDIO_COPY. This was measured using a benchmark that emulates a heap compaction implementation using userfaultfd (to allow concurrent accesses by application threads). More details of the usecase are explained in [2]. Furthermore, UFFDIO_MOVE enables moving swapped-out pages without touching them within the same vma. Today, it can only be done by mremap, however it forces splitting the vma.

This is mostly useful to move hugepage aligned virtual regions without knowing if there are transparent hugepages in the regions or not, but preventing the risk of having to split the hugepage during the operation. The move field is used by the kernel to return the number of bytes that was actually moved, or an error (a negated errno- style value). If the value returned in move doesn't match the value that was specified in len, the operation fails with the error EAGAIN. The move field is output-only; it is not read by the UFFDIO_MOVE operation.

mm/userfaultfd: don't lock anon_vma when performing UFFDIO_MOVE Now that rmap_walk() is guaranteed to be called with the folio lock held, we can stop serializing on the src VMA anon_vma lock when moving an exclusive folio from a src VMA to a dst VMA in UFFDIO_MOVE ioctl. When moving a folio, we modify folio->mapping through folio_move_anon_rmap() and adjust folio->index accordingly. Doing that while we could have concurrent RMAP walks would be dangerous. Therefore, to avoid that, we had to acquire anon_vma of src VMA in write-mode. That meant that when multiple threads called UFFDIO_MOVE concurrently on distinct pages of the same src VMA, they would serialize on it, hurting scalability. In addition to avoiding the scalability bottleneck, this patch also simplifies the complicated lock dance that UFFDIO_MOVE has to go through between RCU, folio-lock, ptl, and anon_vma. folio_move_anon_rmap() already enforces that the folio is locked. So when we have the folio locked we can no longer race with concurrent rmap_walk() as used by folio_referenced() and others who call it on unlocked non-KSM anon folios, and therefore the anon_vma lock is no longer required. Note that this handling is now the same as for other folio_move_anon_rmap() users that also do not hold the anon_vma lock -- namely COW reuse handling (do_wp_page()->wp_can_reuse_anon_folio(), do_huge_pmd_wp_page(), and hugetlb_wp()). These users never required the anon_vma lock as they are only moving the anon VMA closer to the anon_vma leaf of the VMA, for example, from an anon_vma root to a leaf of that root. rmap walks were always able to tolerate that scenario.

userfaultfd: do not block on locking a large folio with raised refcount Lokesh recently raised an issue about UFFDIO_MOVE getting into a deadlock state when it goes into split_folio() with raised folio refcount. split_folio() expects the reference count to be exactly mapcount + num_pages_in_folio + 1 (see can_split_folio()) and fails with EAGAIN otherwise. If multiple processes are trying to move the same large folio, they raise the refcount (all tasks succeed in that) then one of them succeeds in locking the folio, while others will block in folio_lock() while keeping the refcount raised. The winner of this race will proceed with calling split_folio() and will fail returning EAGAIN to the caller and unlocking the folio. The next competing process will get the folio locked and will go through the same flow. In the meantime the original winner will be retried and will block in folio_lock(), getting into the queue of waiting processes only to repeat the same path. All this results in a livelock. An easy fix would be to avoid waiting for the folio lock while holding folio refcount, similar to madvise_free_huge_pmd() where folio lock is acquired before raising the folio refcount. Since we lock and take a refcount of the folio while holding the PTE lock, changing the order of these operations should not break anything. Modify move_pages_pte() to try locking the folio first and if that fails and the folio is large then return EAGAIN without touching the folio refcount. If the folio is single-page then split_folio() is not called, so we don't have this issue. Lokesh has a reproducer [1] and I verified that this change fixes the issue.

userfaultfd: opportunistic TLB-flush batching for present pages in MOVE MOVE ioctl's runtime is dominated by TLB-flush cost, which is required for moving present pages. Mitigate this cost by opportunistically batching present contiguous pages for TLB flushing. Without batching, in our testing on an arm64 Android device with UFFD GC, which uses MOVE ioctl for compaction, we observed that out of the total time spent in move_pages_pte(), over 40% is in ptep_clear_flush(), and ~20% in vm_normal_folio(). With batching, the proportion of vm_normal_folio() increases to over 70% of move_pages_pte() without any changes to vm_normal_folio(). Furthermore, time spent within move_pages_pte() is only ~20%, which includes TLB-flush overhead. When the GC intensive benchmark, which was used to gather the above numbers, is run on cuttlefish (qemu android instance on x86_64), the completion time of the benchmark went down from ~45mins to ~20mins. Furthermore, system_server, one of the most performance critical system processes on android, saw over 50% reduction in GC compaction time on an arm64 android device.

userfaultfd: do not block on locking a large folio with raised refcount Lokesh recently raised an issue about UFFDIO_MOVE getting into a deadlock state when it goes into split_folio() with raised folio refcount. split_folio() expects the reference count to be exactly mapcount + num_pages_in_folio + 1 (see can_split_folio()) and fails with EAGAIN otherwise. If multiple processes are trying to move the same large folio, they raise the refcount (all tasks succeed in that) then one of them succeeds in locking the folio, while others will block in folio_lock() while keeping the refcount raised. The winner of this race will proceed with calling split_folio() and will fail returning EAGAIN to the caller and unlocking the folio. The next competing process will get the folio locked and will go through the same flow. In the meantime the original winner will be retried and will block in folio_lock(), getting into the queue of waiting processes only to repeat the same path. All this results in a livelock. An easy fix would be to avoid waiting for the folio lock while holding folio refcount, similar to madvise_free_huge_pmd() where folio lock is acquired before raising the folio refcount. Since we lock and take a refcount of the folio while holding the PTE lock, changing the order of these operations should not break anything. Modify move_pages_pte() to try locking the folio first and if that fails and the folio is large then return EAGAIN without touching the folio refcount. If the folio is single-page then split_folio() is not called, so we don't have this issue. Lokesh has a reproducer [1] and I verified that this change fixes the issue.

userfaultfd: do not block on locking a large folio with raised refcount Lokesh recently raised an issue about UFFDIO_MOVE getting into a deadlock state when it goes into split_folio() with raised folio refcount. split_folio() expects the reference count to be exactly mapcount + num_pages_in_folio + 1 (see can_split_folio()) and fails with EAGAIN otherwise. If multiple processes are trying to move the same large folio, they raise the refcount (all tasks succeed in that) then one of them succeeds in locking the folio, while others will block in folio_lock() while keeping the refcount raised. The winner of this race will proceed with calling split_folio() and will fail returning EAGAIN to the caller and unlocking the folio. The next competing process will get the folio locked and will go through the same flow. In the meantime the original winner will be retried and will block in folio_lock(), getting into the queue of waiting processes only to repeat the same path. All this results in a livelock. An easy fix would be to avoid waiting for the folio lock while holding folio refcount, similar to madvise_free_huge_pmd() where folio lock is acquired before raising the folio refcount. Since we lock and take a refcount of the folio while holding the PTE lock, changing the order of these operations should not break anything. Modify move_pages_pte() to try locking the folio first and if that fails and the folio is large then return EAGAIN without touching the folio refcount. If the folio is single-page then split_folio() is not called, so we don't have this issue. Lokesh has a reproducer [1] and I verified that this change fixes the issue.

userfaultfd: UFFDIO_MOVE uABI Implement the uABI of UFFDIO_MOVE ioctl. UFFDIO_COPY performs ~20% better than UFFDIO_MOVE when the application needs pages to be allocated [1]. However, with UFFDIO_MOVE, if pages are available (in userspace) for recycling, as is usually the case in heap compaction algorithms, then we can avoid the page allocation and memcpy (done by UFFDIO_COPY). Also, since the pages are recycled in the userspace, we avoid the need to release (via madvise) the pages back to the kernel [2]. We see over 40% reduction (on a Google pixel 6 device) in the compacting thread's completion time by using UFFDIO_MOVE vs. UFFDIO_COPY. This was measured using a benchmark that emulates a heap compaction implementation using userfaultfd (to allow concurrent accesses by application threads).

userfaultfd: opportunistic TLB-flush batching for present pages in MOVE MOVE ioctl's runtime is dominated by TLB-flush cost, which is required for moving present pages. Mitigate this cost by opportunistically batching present contiguous pages for TLB flushing. Without batching, in our testing on an arm64 Android device with UFFD GC, which uses MOVE ioctl for compaction, we observed that out of the total time spent in move_pages_pte(), over 40% is in ptep_clear_flush(), and ~20% in vm_normal_folio(). With batching, the proportion of vm_normal_folio() increases to over 70% of move_pages_pte() without any changes to vm_normal_folio(). Furthermore, time spent within move_pages_pte() is only ~20%, which includes TLB-flush overhead. When the GC intensive benchmark, which was used to gather the above numbers, is run on cuttlefish (qemu android instance on x86_64), the completion time of the benchmark went down from ~45mins to ~20mins. Furthermore, system_server, one of the most performance critical system processes on android, saw over 50% reduction in GC compaction time on an arm64 android device.

userfaultfd: fix move_pages_pte() splitting folio under RCU read lock While testing the split PMD path with lockdep enabled I've got an "Invalid wait context" error caused by split_huge_page_to_list() trying to lock anon_vma->rwsem while inside RCU read section. The issues is due to move_pages_pte() calling split_folio() under RCU read lock. Fix this by unmapping the PTEs and exiting RCU read section before splitting the folio and then retrying. The same retry pattern is used when locking the folio or anon_vma in this function. After splitting the large folio we unlock and release it because after the split the old folio might not be the one that contains the src_addr.

userfaultfd: UFFDIO_MOVE uABI Implement the uABI of UFFDIO_MOVE ioctl. UFFDIO_COPY performs ~20% better than UFFDIO_MOVE when the application needs pages to be allocated [1]. However, with UFFDIO_MOVE, if pages are available (in userspace) for recycling, as is usually the case in heap compaction algorithms, then we can avoid the page allocation and memcpy (done by UFFDIO_COPY). Also, since the pages are recycled in the userspace, we avoid the need to release (via madvise) the pages back to the kernel [2]. We see over 40% reduction (on a Google pixel 6 device) in the compacting thread's completion time by using UFFDIO_MOVE vs. UFFDIO_COPY. This was measured using a benchmark that emulates a heap compaction implementation using userfaultfd (to allow concurrent accesses by application threads). More details of the usecase are explained in [2]. Furthermore, UFFDIO_MOVE enables moving swapped-out pages without touching them within the same vma. Today, it can only be done by mremap, however it forces splitting the vma. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/all/1425575884-2574-1-git-send-email-aarcange@redhat.com/ [2] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/CA+EESO4uO84SSnBhArH4HvLNhaUQ5nZKNKXqxRCyjniNVjp0Aw@mail.gmail.com/ Update for the ioctl_userfaultfd(2) manpage: UFFDIO_MOVE (Since Linux xxx) Move a continuous memory chunk into the userfault registered range and optionally wake up the blocked thread. The source and destination addresses and the number of bytes to move are specified by the src, dst, and len fields of the uffdio_move structure pointed to by argp: struct uffdio_move { __u64 dst; /* Destination of move */ __u64 src; /* Source of move */ __u64 len; /* Number of bytes to move */ __u64 mode; /* Flags controlling behavior of move */ __s64 move; /* Number of bytes moved, or negated error */ }; The following value may be bitwise ORed in mode to change the behavior of the UFFDIO_MOVE operation: UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_DONTWAKE Do not wake up the thread that waits for page-fault resolution UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_ALLOW_SRC_HOLES Allow holes in the source virtual range that is being moved. When not specified, the holes will result in ENOENT error. When specified, the holes will be accounted as successfully moved memory. This is mostly useful to move hugepage aligned virtual regions without knowing if there are transparent hugepages in the regions or not, but preventing the risk of having to split the hugepage during the operation. The move field is used by the kernel to return the number of bytes that was actually moved, or an error (a negated errno- style value). If the value returned in move doesn't match the value that was specified in len, the operation fails with the error EAGAIN. The move field is output-only; it is not read by the UFFDIO_MOVE operation. The operation may fail for various reasons. Usually, remapping of pages that are not exclusive to the given process fail; once KSM might deduplicate pages or fork() COW-shares pages during fork() with child processes, they are no longer exclusive. Further, the kernel might only perform lightweight checks for detecting whether the pages are exclusive, and return -EBUSY in case that check fails. To make the operation more likely to succeed, KSM should be disabled, fork() should be avoided or MADV_DONTFORK should be configured for the source VMA before fork(). This ioctl(2) operation returns 0 on success. In this case, the entire area was moved. On error, -1 is returned and errno is set to indicate the error. Possible errors include: EAGAIN The number of bytes moved (i.e., the value returned in the move field) does not equal the value that was specified in the len field. EINVAL Either dst or len was not a multiple of the system page size, or the range specified by src and len or dst and len was invalid. EINVAL An invalid bit was specified in the mode field. ENOENT The source virtual memory range has unmapped holes and UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_ALLOW_SRC_HOLES is not set. EEXIST The destination virtual memory range is fully or partially mapped. EBUSY The pages in the source virtual memory range are either pinned or not exclusive to the process. The kernel might only perform lightweight checks for detecting whether the pages are exclusive. To make the operation more likely to succeed, KSM should be disabled, fork() should be avoided or MADV_DONTFORK should be configured for the source virtual memory area before fork(). ENOMEM Allocating memory needed for the operation failed. ESRCH The target process has exited at the time of a UFFDIO_MOVE operation.

userfaultfd: opportunistic TLB-flush batching for present pages in MOVE MOVE ioctl's runtime is dominated by TLB-flush cost, which is required for moving present pages. Mitigate this cost by opportunistically batching present contiguous pages for TLB flushing. Without batching, in our testing on an arm64 Android device with UFFD GC, which uses MOVE ioctl for compaction, we observed that out of the total time spent in move_pages_pte(), over 40% is in ptep_clear_flush(), and ~20% in vm_normal_folio(). With batching, the proportion of vm_normal_folio() increases to over 70% of move_pages_pte() without any changes to vm_normal_folio(). Furthermore, time spent within move_pages_pte() is only ~20%, which includes TLB-flush overhead. When the GC intensive benchmark, which was used to gather the above numbers, is run on cuttlefish (qemu android instance on x86_64), the completion time of the benchmark went down from ~45mins to ~20mins. Furthermore, system_server, one of the most performance critical system processes on android, saw over 50% reduction in GC compaction time on an arm64 android device.

mm/userfaultfd: don't lock anon_vma when performing UFFDIO_MOVE Now that rmap_walk() is guaranteed to be called with the folio lock held, we can stop serializing on the src VMA anon_vma lock when moving an exclusive folio from a src VMA to a dst VMA in UFFDIO_MOVE ioctl. When moving a folio, we modify folio->mapping through folio_move_anon_rmap() and adjust folio->index accordingly. Doing that while we could have concurrent RMAP walks would be dangerous. Therefore, to avoid that, we had to acquire anon_vma of src VMA in write-mode. That meant that when multiple threads called UFFDIO_MOVE concurrently on distinct pages of the same src VMA, they would serialize on it, hurting scalability. In addition to avoiding the scalability bottleneck, this patch also simplifies the complicated lock dance that UFFDIO_MOVE has to go through between RCU, folio-lock, ptl, and anon_vma. folio_move_anon_rmap() already enforces that the folio is locked. So when we have the folio locked we can no longer race with concurrent rmap_walk() as used by folio_referenced() and others who call it on unlocked non-KSM anon folios, and therefore the anon_vma lock is no longer required. Note that this handling is now the same as for other folio_move_anon_rmap() users that also do not hold the anon_vma lock -- namely COW reuse handling (do_wp_page()->wp_can_reuse_anon_folio(), do_huge_pmd_wp_page(), and hugetlb_wp()). These users never required the anon_vma lock as they are only moving the anon VMA closer to the anon_vma leaf of the VMA, for example, from an anon_vma root to a leaf of that root. rmap walks were always able to tolerate that scenario.

mm: fix kernel BUG when userfaultfd_move encounters swapcache userfaultfd_move() checks whether the PTE entry is present or a swap entry. - If the PTE entry is present, move_present_pte() handles folio migration by setting: src_folio->index = linear_page_index(dst_vma, dst_addr); - If the PTE entry is a swap entry, move_swap_pte() simply copies the PTE to the new dst_addr. This approach is incorrect because, even if the PTE is a swap entry, it can still reference a folio that remains in the swap cache. This creates a race window between steps 2 and 4. 1. add_to_swap: The folio is added to the swapcache. 2. try_to_unmap: PTEs are converted to swap entries. 3. pageout: The folio is written back. 4. Swapcache is cleared. If userfaultfd_move() occurs in the window between steps 2 and 4, after the swap PTE has been moved to the destination, accessing the destination triggers do_swap_page(), which may locate the folio in the swapcache. However, since the folio's index has not been updated to match the destination VMA, do_swap_page() will detect a mismatch. This can result in two critical issues depending on the system configuration. If KSM is disabled, both small and large folios can trigger a BUG during the add_rmap operation due to: page_pgoff(folio, page) != linear_page_index(vma, address) [ 13.336953] page: refcount:6 mapcount:1 mapping:00000000f43db19c index:0xffffaf150 pfn:0x4667c [ 13.337520] head: order:2 mapcount:1 entire_mapcount:0 nr_pages_mapped:1 pincount:0 [ 13.337716] memcg:ffff00000405f000 [ 13.337849] anon flags: 0x3fffc0000020459(locked|uptodate|dirty|owner_priv_1|head|swapbacked|node=0|zone=0|lastcpupid=0xffff) [ 13.338630] raw: 03fffc0000020459 ffff80008507b538 ffff80008507b538 ffff000006260361 [ 13.338831] raw: 0000000ffffaf150 0000000000004000 0000000600000000 ffff00000405f000 [ 13.339031] head: 03fffc0000020459 ffff80008507b538 ffff80008507b538 ffff000006260361 [ 13.339204] head: 0000000ffffaf150 0000000000004000 0000000600000000 ffff00000405f000 [ 13.339375] head: 03fffc0000000202 fffffdffc0199f01 ffffffff00000000 0000000000000001 [ 13.339546] head: 0000000000000004 0000000000000000 00000000ffffffff 0000000000000000 [ 13.339736] page dumped because: VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(page_pgoff(folio, page) != linear_page_index(vma, address)) [ 13.340190] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 13.340316] kernel BUG at mm/rmap.c:1380!

This patch also checks the swapcache when handling swap entries. If a match is found in the swapcache, it processes it similarly to a present PTE. However, there are some differences. For example, the folio is no longer exclusive because folio_try_share_anon_rmap_pte() is performed during unmapping. Furthermore, in the case of swapcache, the folio has already been unmapped, eliminating the risk of concurrent rmap walks and removing the need to acquire src_folio's anon_vma or lock. Note that for large folios, in the swapcache handling path, we directly return -EBUSY since split_folio() will return -EBUSY regardless if the folio is under writeback or unmapped. This is not an urgent issue, so a follow-up patch may address it separately.

mm: fix kernel BUG when userfaultfd_move encounters swapcache userfaultfd_move() checks whether the PTE entry is present or a swap entry. - If the PTE entry is present, move_present_pte() handles folio migration by setting: src_folio->index = linear_page_index(dst_vma, dst_addr); - If the PTE entry is a swap entry, move_swap_pte() simply copies the PTE to the new dst_addr. This approach is incorrect because, even if the PTE is a swap entry, it can still reference a folio that remains in the swap cache. This creates a race window between steps 2 and 4. 1. add_to_swap: The folio is added to the swapcache. 2. try_to_unmap: PTEs are converted to swap entries. 3. pageout: The folio is written back. 4. Swapcache is cleared. If userfaultfd_move() occurs in the window between steps 2 and 4, after the swap PTE has been moved to the destination, accessing the destination triggers do_swap_page(), which may locate the folio in the swapcache. However, since the folio's index has not been updated to match the destination VMA, do_swap_page() will detect a mismatch. This can result in two critical issues depending on the system configuration.

This patch also checks the swapcache when handling swap entries. If a match is found in the swapcache, it processes it similarly to a present PTE. However, there are some differences. For example, the folio is no longer exclusive because folio_try_share_anon_rmap_pte() is performed during unmapping. Furthermore, in the case of swapcache, the folio has already been unmapped, eliminating the risk of concurrent rmap walks and removing the need to acquire src_folio's anon_vma or lock. Note that for large folios, in the swapcache handling path, we directly return -EBUSY since split_folio() will return -EBUSY regardless if the folio is under writeback or unmapped. This is not an urgent issue, so a follow-up patch may address it separately.

userfaultfd: UFFDIO_MOVE uABI Implement the uABI of UFFDIO_MOVE ioctl. UFFDIO_COPY performs ~20% better than UFFDIO_MOVE when the application needs pages to be allocated [1]. However, with UFFDIO_MOVE, if pages are available (in userspace) for recycling, as is usually the case in heap compaction algorithms, then we can avoid the page allocation and memcpy (done by UFFDIO_COPY). Also, since the pages are recycled in the userspace, we avoid the need to release (via madvise) the pages back to the kernel [2]. We see over 40% reduction (on a Google pixel 6 device) in the compacting thread's completion time by using UFFDIO_MOVE vs. UFFDIO_COPY. This was measured using a benchmark that emulates a heap compaction implementation using userfaultfd (to allow concurrent accesses by application threads). More details of the usecase are explained in [2]. Furthermore, UFFDIO_MOVE enables moving swapped-out pages without touching them within the same vma. Today, it can only be done by mremap, however it forces splitting the vma. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/all/1425575884-2574-1-git-send-email-aarcange@redhat.com/ [2] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/CA+EESO4uO84SSnBhArH4HvLNhaUQ5nZKNKXqxRCyjniNVjp0Aw@mail.gmail.com/ Update for the ioctl_userfaultfd(2) manpage: UFFDIO_MOVE (Since Linux xxx) Move a continuous memory chunk into the userfault registered range and optionally wake up the blocked thread. The source and destination addresses and the number of bytes to move are specified by the src, dst, and len fields of the uffdio_move structure pointed to by argp: struct uffdio_move { __u64 dst; /* Destination of move */ __u64 src; /* Source of move */ __u64 len; /* Number of bytes to move */ __u64 mode; /* Flags controlling behavior of move */ __s64 move; /* Number of bytes moved, or negated error */ }; The following value may be bitwise ORed in mode to change the behavior of the UFFDIO_MOVE operation: UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_DONTWAKE Do not wake up the thread that waits for page-fault resolution UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_ALLOW_SRC_HOLES Allow holes in the source virtual range that is being moved. When not specified, the holes will result in ENOENT error. When specified, the holes will be accounted as successfully moved memory. This is mostly useful to move hugepage aligned virtual regions without knowing if there are transparent hugepages in the regions or not, but preventing the risk of having to split the hugepage during the operation. The move field is used by the kernel to return the number of bytes that was actually moved, or an error (a negated errno- style value). If the value returned in move doesn't match the value that was specified in len, the operation fails with the error EAGAIN. The move field is output-only; it is not read by the UFFDIO_MOVE operation. The operation may fail for various reasons. Usually, remapping of pages that are not exclusive to the given process fail; once KSM might deduplicate pages or fork() COW-shares pages during fork() with child processes, they are no longer exclusive. Further, the kernel might only perform lightweight checks for detecting whether the pages are exclusive, and return -EBUSY in case that check fails. To make the operation more likely to succeed, KSM should be disabled, fork() should be avoided or MADV_DONTFORK should be configured for the source VMA before fork(). This ioctl(2) operation returns 0 on success. In this case, the entire area was moved. On error, -1 is returned and errno is set to indicate the error. Possible errors include: EAGAIN The number of bytes moved (i.e., the value returned in the move field) does not equal the value that was specified in the len field. EINVAL Either dst or len was not a multiple of the system page size, or the range specified by src and len or dst and len was invalid. EINVAL An invalid bit was specified in the mode field. ENOENT The source virtual memory range has unmapped holes and UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_ALLOW_SRC_HOLES is not set. EEXIST The destination virtual memory range is fully or partially mapped. EBUSY The pages in the source virtual memory range are either pinned or not exclusive to the process. The kernel might only perform lightweight checks for detecting whether the pages are exclusive. To make the operation more likely to succeed, KSM should be disabled, fork() should be avoided or MADV_DONTFORK should be configured for the source virtual memory area before fork(). ENOMEM Allocating memory needed for the operation failed. ESRCH The target process has exited at the time of a UFFDIO_MOVE operation.

userfaultfd: opportunistic TLB-flush batching for present pages in MOVE MOVE ioctl's runtime is dominated by TLB-flush cost, which is required for moving present pages. Mitigate this cost by opportunistically batching present contiguous pages for TLB flushing. Without batching, in our testing on an arm64 Android device with UFFD GC, which uses MOVE ioctl for compaction, we observed that out of the total time spent in move_pages_pte(), over 40% is in ptep_clear_flush(), and ~20% in vm_normal_folio(). With batching, the proportion of vm_normal_folio() increases to over 70% of move_pages_pte() without any changes to vm_normal_folio(). Furthermore, time spent within move_pages_pte() is only ~20%, which includes TLB-flush overhead. When the GC intensive benchmark, which was used to gather the above numbers, is run on cuttlefish (qemu android instance on x86_64), the completion time of the benchmark went down from ~45mins to ~20mins. Furthermore, system_server, one of the most performance critical system processes on android, saw over 50% reduction in GC compaction time on an arm64 android device.

mm: fix kernel BUG when userfaultfd_move encounters swapcache userfaultfd_move() checks whether the PTE entry is present or a swap entry. - If the PTE entry is present, move_present_pte() handles folio migration by setting: src_folio->index = linear_page_index(dst_vma, dst_addr); - If the PTE entry is a swap entry, move_swap_pte() simply copies the PTE to the new dst_addr. This approach is incorrect because, even if the PTE is a swap entry, it can still reference a folio that remains in the swap cache. This creates a race window between steps 2 and 4. 1. add_to_swap: The folio is added to the swapcache. 2. try_to_unmap: PTEs are converted to swap entries. 3. pageout: The folio is written back. 4. Swapcache is cleared. If userfaultfd_move() occurs in the window between steps 2 and 4, after the swap PTE has been moved to the destination, accessing the destination triggers do_swap_page(), which may locate the folio in the swapcache. However, since the folio's index has not been updated to match the destination VMA, do_swap_page() will detect a mismatch. This can result in two critical issues depending on the system configuration. If KSM is disabled, both small and large folios can trigger a BUG during the add_rmap operation due to: page_pgoff(folio, page) != linear_page_index(vma, address) [ 13.336953] page: refcount:6 mapcount:1 mapping:00000000f43db19c index:0xffffaf150 pfn:0x4667c [ 13.337520] head: order:2 mapcount:1 entire_mapcount:0 nr_pages_mapped:1 pincount:0 [ 13.337716] memcg:ffff00000405f000 [ 13.337849] anon flags: 0x3fffc0000020459(locked|uptodate|dirty|owner_priv_1|head|swapbacked|node=0|zone=0|lastcpupid=0xffff) [ 13.338630] raw: 03fffc0000020459 ffff80008507b538 ffff80008507b538 ffff000006260361 [ 13.338831] raw: 0000000ffffaf150 0000000000004000 0000000600000000 ffff00000405f000 [ 13.339031] head: 03fffc0000020459 ffff80008507b538 ffff80008507b538 ffff000006260361 [ 13.339204] head: 0000000ffffaf150 0000000000004000 0000000600000000 ffff00000405f000 [ 13.339375] head: 03fffc0000000202 fffffdffc0199f01 ffffffff00000000 0000000000000001 [ 13.339546] head: 0000000000000004 0000000000000000 00000000ffffffff 0000000000000000 [ 13.339736] page dumped because: VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(page_pgoff(folio, page) != linear_page_index(vma, address)) [ 13.340190] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 13.340316] kernel BUG at mm/rmap.c:1380!

mm, swap: use unified helper for swap cache look up The swap cache lookup helper swap_cache_get_folio currently does readahead updates as well, so callers that are not doing swapin from any VMA or mapping are forced to reuse filemap helpers instead, and have to access the swap cache space directly. So decouple readahead update with swap cache lookup. Move the readahead update part into a standalone helper. Let the caller call the readahead update helper if they do readahead. And convert all swap cache lookups to use swap_cache_get_folio. After this commit, there are only three special cases for accessing swap cache space now: huge memory splitting, migration, and shmem replacing, because they need to lock the XArray. The following commits will wrap their accesses to the swap cache too, with special helpers. And worth noting, currently dropbehind is not supported for anon folio, and we will never see a dropbehind folio in swap cache. The unified helper can be updated later to handle that. While at it, add proper kernedoc for touched helpers. No functional change.

mm: fix kernel BUG when userfaultfd_move encounters swapcache userfaultfd_move() checks whether the PTE entry is present or a swap entry. - If the PTE entry is present, move_present_pte() handles folio migration by setting: src_folio->index = linear_page_index(dst_vma, dst_addr); - If the PTE entry is a swap entry, move_swap_pte() simply copies the PTE to the new dst_addr. This approach is incorrect because, even if the PTE is a swap entry, it can still reference a folio that remains in the swap cache. This creates a race window between steps 2 and 4. 1. add_to_swap: The folio is added to the swapcache. 2. try_to_unmap: PTEs are converted to swap entries. 3. pageout: The folio is written back. 4. Swapcache is cleared. If userfaultfd_move() occurs in the window between steps 2 and 4, after the swap PTE has been moved to the destination, accessing the destination triggers do_swap_page(), which may locate the folio in the swapcache. However, since the folio's index has not been updated to match the destination VMA, do_swap_page() will detect a mismatch. This can result in two critical issues depending on the system configuration.

userfaultfd: opportunistic TLB-flush batching for present pages in MOVE MOVE ioctl's runtime is dominated by TLB-flush cost, which is required for moving present pages. Mitigate this cost by opportunistically batching present contiguous pages for TLB flushing. Without batching, in our testing on an arm64 Android device with UFFD GC, which uses MOVE ioctl for compaction, we observed that out of the total time spent in move_pages_pte(), over 40% is in ptep_clear_flush(), and ~20% in vm_normal_folio(). With batching, the proportion of vm_normal_folio() increases to over 70% of move_pages_pte() without any changes to vm_normal_folio(). Furthermore, time spent within move_pages_pte() is only ~20%, which includes TLB-flush overhead. When the GC intensive benchmark, which was used to gather the above numbers, is run on cuttlefish (qemu android instance on x86_64), the completion time of the benchmark went down from ~45mins to ~20mins. Furthermore, system_server, one of the most performance critical system processes on android, saw over 50% reduction in GC compaction time on an arm64 android device.

mm: fix kernel BUG when userfaultfd_move encounters swapcache userfaultfd_move() checks whether the PTE entry is present or a swap entry. - If the PTE entry is present, move_present_pte() handles folio migration by setting: src_folio->index = linear_page_index(dst_vma, dst_addr); - If the PTE entry is a swap entry, move_swap_pte() simply copies the PTE to the new dst_addr. This approach is incorrect because, even if the PTE is a swap entry, it can still reference a folio that remains in the swap cache. This creates a race window between steps 2 and 4. 1. add_to_swap: The folio is added to the swapcache. 2. try_to_unmap: PTEs are converted to swap entries. 3. pageout: The folio is written back. 4. Swapcache is cleared. If userfaultfd_move() occurs in the window between steps 2 and 4, after the swap PTE has been moved to the destination, accessing the destination triggers do_swap_page(), which may locate the folio in the swapcache. However, since the folio's index has not been updated to match the destination VMA, do_swap_page() will detect a mismatch.

userfaultfd: opportunistic TLB-flush batching for present pages in MOVE MOVE ioctl's runtime is dominated by TLB-flush cost, which is required for moving present pages. Mitigate this cost by opportunistically batching present contiguous pages for TLB flushing. Without batching, in our testing on an arm64 Android device with UFFD GC, which uses MOVE ioctl for compaction, we observed that out of the total time spent in move_pages_pte(), over 40% is in ptep_clear_flush(), and ~20% in vm_normal_folio(). With batching, the proportion of vm_normal_folio() increases to over 70% of move_pages_pte() without any changes to vm_normal_folio(). Furthermore, time spent within move_pages_pte() is only ~20%, which includes TLB-flush overhead. When the GC intensive benchmark, which was used to gather the above numbers, is run on cuttlefish (qemu android instance on x86_64), the completion time of the benchmark went down from ~45mins to ~20mins. Furthermore, system_server, one of the most performance critical system processes on android, saw over 50% reduction in GC compaction time on an arm64 android device.

This patch also checks the swapcache when handling swap entries. If a match is found in the swapcache, it processes it similarly to a present PTE. However, there are some differences. For example, the folio is no longer exclusive because folio_try_share_anon_rmap_pte() is performed during unmapping. Furthermore, in the case of swapcache, the folio has already been unmapped, eliminating the risk of concurrent rmap walks and removing the need to acquire src_folio's anon_vma or lock. Note that for large folios, in the swapcache handling path, we directly return -EBUSY since split_folio() will return -EBUSY regardless if the folio is under writeback or unmapped. This is not an urgent issue, so a follow-up patch may address it separately.

mm: userfaultfd: fix race of userfaultfd_move and swap cache This commit fixes two kinds of races, they may have different results: Barry reported a BUG_ON in commit c50f8e6053b0, we may see the same BUG_ON if the filemap lookup returned NULL and folio is added to swap cache after that. If another kind of race is triggered (folio changed after lookup) we may see RSS counter is corrupted: [ 406.893936] BUG: Bad rss-counter state mm:ffff0000c5a9ddc0 type:MM_ANONPAGES val:-1 [ 406.894071] BUG: Bad rss-counter state mm:ffff0000c5a9ddc0 type:MM_SHMEMPAGES val:1 Because the folio is being accounted to the wrong VMA. I'm not sure if there will be any data corruption though, seems no. The issues above are critical already. On seeing a swap entry PTE, userfaultfd_move does a lockless swap cache lookup, and tries to move the found folio to the faulting vma. Currently, it relies on checking the PTE value to ensure that the moved folio still belongs to the src swap entry and that no new folio has been added to the swap cache, which turns out to be unreliable. While working and reviewing the swap table series with Barry, following existing races are observed and reproduced [1]: In the example below, move_pages_pte is moving src_pte to dst_pte, where src_pte is a swap entry PTE holding swap entry S1, and S1 is not in the swap cache: CPU1 CPU2 userfaultfd_move move_pages_pte() entry = pte_to_swp_entry(orig_src_pte); // Here it got entry = S1 ... < interrupted> ... <swapin src_pte, alloc and use folio A> // folio A is a new allocated folio // and get installed into src_pte <frees swap entry S1> // src_pte now points to folio A, S1 // has swap count == 0, it can be freed // by folio_swap_swap or swap // allocator's reclaim. <try to swap out another folio B> // folio B is a folio in another VMA. <put folio B to swap cache using S1 > // S1 is freed, folio B can use it // for swap out with no problem. ... folio = filemap_get_folio(S1) // Got folio B here !!! ... < interrupted again> ... <swapin folio B and free S1> // Now S1 is free to be used again. <swapout src_pte & folio A using S1> // Now src_pte is a swap entry PTE // holding S1 again. folio_trylock(folio) move_swap_pte double_pt_lock is_pte_pages_stable // Check passed because src_pte == S1 folio_move_anon_rmap(...) // Moved invalid folio B here !!! The race window is very short and requires multiple collisions of multiple rare events, so it's very unlikely to happen, but with a deliberately constructed reproducer and increased time window, it can be reproduced easily. This can be fixed by checking if the folio returned by filemap is the valid swap cache folio after acquiring the folio lock. Another similar race is possible: filemap_get_folio may return NULL, but folio (A) could be swapped in and then swapped out again using the same swap entry after the lookup. In such a case, folio (A) may remain in the swap cache, so it must be moved too: CPU1 CPU2 userfaultfd_move move_pages_pte() entry = pte_to_swp_entry(orig_src_pte); // Here it got entry = S1, and S1 is not in swap cache folio = filemap_get_folio(S1) // Got NULL ... < interrupted again> ... <swapin folio A and free S1> <swapout folio A re-using S1> move_swap_pte double_pt_lock is_pte_pages_stable // Check passed because src_pte == S1 folio_move_anon_rmap(...) // folio A is ignored !!! Fix this by checking the swap cache again after acquiring the src_pte lock. And to avoid the filemap overhead, we check swap_map directly [2]. The SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO path does make the problem more complex, but so far we don't need to worry about that, since folios can only be exposed to the swap cache in the swap out path, and this is covered in this patch by checking the swap cache again after acquiring the src_pte lock. Testing with a simple C program that allocates and moves several GB of memory did not show any observable performance change.

userfaultfd: UFFDIO_MOVE uABI Implement the uABI of UFFDIO_MOVE ioctl. UFFDIO_COPY performs ~20% better than UFFDIO_MOVE when the application needs pages to be allocated [1]. However, with UFFDIO_MOVE, if pages are available (in userspace) for recycling, as is usually the case in heap compaction algorithms, then we can avoid the page allocation and memcpy (done by UFFDIO_COPY). Also, since the pages are recycled in the userspace, we avoid the need to release (via madvise) the pages back to the kernel [2]. We see over 40% reduction (on a Google pixel 6 device) in the compacting thread's completion time by using UFFDIO_MOVE vs. UFFDIO_COPY. This was measured using a benchmark that emulates a heap compaction implementation using userfaultfd (to allow concurrent accesses by application threads). More details of the usecase are explained in [2]. Furthermore, UFFDIO_MOVE enables moving swapped-out pages without touching them within the same vma. Today, it can only be done by mremap, however it forces splitting the vma.

This is mostly useful to move hugepage aligned virtual regions without knowing if there are transparent hugepages in the regions or not, but preventing the risk of having to split the hugepage during the operation. The move field is used by the kernel to return the number of bytes that was actually moved, or an error (a negated errno- style value). If the value returned in move doesn't match the value that was specified in len, the operation fails with the error EAGAIN. The move field is output-only; it is not read by the UFFDIO_MOVE operation. The operation may fail for various reasons. Usually, remapping of pages that are not exclusive to the given process fail; once KSM might deduplicate pages or fork() COW-shares pages during fork() with child processes, they are no longer exclusive.

This is mostly useful to move hugepage aligned virtual regions without knowing if there are transparent hugepages in the regions or not, but preventing the risk of having to split the hugepage during the operation. The move field is used by the kernel to return the number of bytes that was actually moved, or an error (a negated errno- style value). If the value returned in move doesn't match the value that was specified in len, the operation fails with the error EAGAIN. The move field is output-only; it is not read by the UFFDIO_MOVE operation. The operation may fail for various reasons. Usually, remapping of pages that are not exclusive to the given process fail; once KSM might deduplicate pages or fork() COW-shares pages during fork() with child processes, they are no longer exclusive. Further, the kernel might only perform lightweight checks for detecting whether the pages are exclusive, and return -EBUSY in case that check fails. To make the operation more likely to succeed, KSM should be disabled, fork() should be avoided or MADV_DONTFORK should be configured for the source VMA before fork(). This ioctl(2) operation returns 0 on success. In this case, the entire area was moved. On error, -1 is returned and errno is set to indicate the error. Possible errors include: EAGAIN The number of bytes moved (i.e., the value returned in the move field) does not equal the value that was specified in the len field. EINVAL Either dst or len was not a multiple of the system page size, or the range specified by src and len or dst and len was invalid. EINVAL An invalid bit was specified in the mode field. ENOENT The source virtual memory range has unmapped holes and UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_ALLOW_SRC_HOLES is not set. EEXIST The destination virtual memory range is fully or partially mapped. EBUSY The pages in the source virtual memory range are either pinned or not exclusive to the process. The kernel might only perform lightweight checks for detecting whether the pages are exclusive. To make the operation more likely to succeed, KSM should be disabled, fork() should be avoided or MADV_DONTFORK should be configured for the source virtual memory area before fork(). ENOMEM Allocating memory needed for the operation failed. ESRCH The target process has exited at the time of a UFFDIO_MOVE operation.

mm: fix kernel BUG when userfaultfd_move encounters swapcache userfaultfd_move() checks whether the PTE entry is present or a swap entry. - If the PTE entry is present, move_present_pte() handles folio migration by setting: src_folio->index = linear_page_index(dst_vma, dst_addr); - If the PTE entry is a swap entry, move_swap_pte() simply copies the PTE to the new dst_addr. This approach is incorrect because, even if the PTE is a swap entry, it can still reference a folio that remains in the swap cache. This creates a race window between steps 2 and 4. 1. add_to_swap: The folio is added to the swapcache. 2. try_to_unmap: PTEs are converted to swap entries. 3. pageout: The folio is written back. 4. Swapcache is cleared. If userfaultfd_move() occurs in the window between steps 2 and 4, after the swap PTE has been moved to the destination, accessing the destination triggers do_swap_page(), which may locate the folio in the swapcache. However, since the folio's index has not been updated to match the destination VMA, do_swap_page() will detect a mismatch. This can result in two critical issues depending on the system configuration. If KSM is disabled, both small and large folios can trigger a BUG during the add_rmap operation due to: page_pgoff(folio, page) != linear_page_index(vma, address) [ 13.336953] page: refcount:6 mapcount:1 mapping:00000000f43db19c index:0xffffaf150 pfn:0x4667c [ 13.337520] head: order:2 mapcount:1 entire_mapcount:0 nr_pages_mapped:1 pincount:0 [ 13.337716] memcg:ffff00000405f000 [ 13.337849] anon flags: 0x3fffc0000020459(locked|uptodate|dirty|owner_priv_1|head|swapbacked|node=0|zone=0|lastcpupid=0xffff) [ 13.338630] raw: 03fffc0000020459 ffff80008507b538 ffff80008507b538 ffff000006260361 [ 13.338831] raw: 0000000ffffaf150 0000000000004000 0000000600000000 ffff00000405f000 [ 13.339031] head: 03fffc0000020459 ffff80008507b538 ffff80008507b538 ffff000006260361 [ 13.339204] head: 0000000ffffaf150 0000000000004000 0000000600000000 ffff00000405f000 [ 13.339375] head: 03fffc0000000202 fffffdffc0199f01 ffffffff00000000 0000000000000001 [ 13.339546] head: 0000000000000004 0000000000000000 00000000ffffffff 0000000000000000 [ 13.339736] page dumped because: VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(page_pgoff(folio, page) != linear_page_index(vma, address)) [ 13.340190] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 13.340316] kernel BUG at mm/rmap.c:1380!

This patch also checks the swapcache when handling swap entries. If a match is found in the swapcache, it processes it similarly to a present PTE. However, there are some differences. For example, the folio is no longer exclusive because folio_try_share_anon_rmap_pte() is performed during unmapping. Furthermore, in the case of swapcache, the folio has already been unmapped, eliminating the risk of concurrent rmap walks and removing the need to acquire src_folio's anon_vma or lock. Note that for large folios, in the swapcache handling path, we directly return -EBUSY since split_folio() will return -EBUSY regardless if the folio is under writeback or unmapped. This is not an urgent issue, so a follow-up patch may address it separately.

However, with UFFDIO_MOVE, if pages are available (in userspace) for recycling, as is usually the case in heap compaction algorithms, then we can avoid the page allocation and memcpy (done by UFFDIO_COPY). Also, since the pages are recycled in the userspace, we avoid the need to release (via madvise) the pages back to the kernel [2]. We see over 40% reduction (on a Google pixel 6 device) in the compacting thread's completion time by using UFFDIO_MOVE vs. UFFDIO_COPY. This was measured using a benchmark that emulates a heap compaction implementation using userfaultfd (to allow concurrent accesses by application threads).

userfaultfd: opportunistic TLB-flush batching for present pages in MOVE MOVE ioctl's runtime is dominated by TLB-flush cost, which is required for moving present pages. Mitigate this cost by opportunistically batching present contiguous pages for TLB flushing. Without batching, in our testing on an arm64 Android device with UFFD GC, which uses MOVE ioctl for compaction, we observed that out of the total time spent in move_pages_pte(), over 40% is in ptep_clear_flush(), and ~20% in vm_normal_folio(). With batching, the proportion of vm_normal_folio() increases to over 70% of move_pages_pte() without any changes to vm_normal_folio(). Furthermore, time spent within move_pages_pte() is only ~20%, which includes TLB-flush overhead. When the GC intensive benchmark, which was used to gather the above numbers, is run on cuttlefish (qemu android instance on x86_64), the completion time of the benchmark went down from ~45mins to ~20mins. Furthermore, system_server, one of the most performance critical system processes on android, saw over 50% reduction in GC compaction time on an arm64 android device.

userfaultfd: opportunistic TLB-flush batching for present pages in MOVE MOVE ioctl's runtime is dominated by TLB-flush cost, which is required for moving present pages. Mitigate this cost by opportunistically batching present contiguous pages for TLB flushing. Without batching, in our testing on an arm64 Android device with UFFD GC, which uses MOVE ioctl for compaction, we observed that out of the total time spent in move_pages_pte(), over 40% is in ptep_clear_flush(), and ~20% in vm_normal_folio(). With batching, the proportion of vm_normal_folio() increases to over 70% of move_pages_pte() without any changes to vm_normal_folio(). Furthermore, time spent within move_pages_pte() is only ~20%, which includes TLB-flush overhead. When the GC intensive benchmark, which was used to gather the above numbers, is run on cuttlefish (qemu android instance on x86_64), the completion time of the benchmark went down from ~45mins to ~20mins. Furthermore, system_server, one of the most performance critical system processes on android, saw over 50% reduction in GC compaction time on an arm64 android device.

userfaultfd: UFFDIO_MOVE uABI Implement the uABI of UFFDIO_MOVE ioctl. UFFDIO_COPY performs ~20% better than UFFDIO_MOVE when the application needs pages to be allocated [1]. However, with UFFDIO_MOVE, if pages are available (in userspace) for recycling, as is usually the case in heap compaction algorithms, then we can avoid the page allocation and memcpy (done by UFFDIO_COPY). Also, since the pages are recycled in the userspace, we avoid the need to release (via madvise) the pages back to the kernel [2]. We see over 40% reduction (on a Google pixel 6 device) in the compacting thread's completion time by using UFFDIO_MOVE vs. UFFDIO_COPY. This was measured using a benchmark that emulates a heap compaction implementation using userfaultfd (to allow concurrent accesses by application threads). More details of the usecase are explained in [2]. Furthermore, UFFDIO_MOVE enables moving swapped-out pages without touching them within the same vma. Today, it can only be done by mremap, however it forces splitting the vma.

userfaultfd: opportunistic TLB-flush batching for present pages in MOVE MOVE ioctl's runtime is dominated by TLB-flush cost, which is required for moving present pages. Mitigate this cost by opportunistically batching present contiguous pages for TLB flushing. Without batching, in our testing on an arm64 Android device with UFFD GC, which uses MOVE ioctl for compaction, we observed that out of the total time spent in move_pages_pte(), over 40% is in ptep_clear_flush(), and ~20% in vm_normal_folio(). With batching, the proportion of vm_normal_folio() increases to over 70% of move_pages_pte() without any changes to vm_normal_folio(). Furthermore, time spent within move_pages_pte() is only ~20%, which includes TLB-flush overhead. When the GC intensive benchmark, which was used to gather the above numbers, is run on cuttlefish (qemu android instance on x86_64), the completion time of the benchmark went down from ~45mins to ~20mins. Furthermore, system_server, one of the most performance critical system processes on android, saw over 50% reduction in GC compaction time on an arm64 android device.

userfaultfd: opportunistic TLB-flush batching for present pages in MOVE MOVE ioctl's runtime is dominated by TLB-flush cost, which is required for moving present pages. Mitigate this cost by opportunistically batching present contiguous pages for TLB flushing. Without batching, in our testing on an arm64 Android device with UFFD GC, which uses MOVE ioctl for compaction, we observed that out of the total time spent in move_pages_pte(), over 40% is in ptep_clear_flush(), and ~20% in vm_normal_folio(). With batching, the proportion of vm_normal_folio() increases to over 70% of move_pages_pte() without any changes to vm_normal_folio(). Furthermore, time spent within move_pages_pte() is only ~20%, which includes TLB-flush overhead. When the GC intensive benchmark, which was used to gather the above numbers, is run on cuttlefish (qemu android instance on x86_64), the completion time of the benchmark went down from ~45mins to ~20mins. Furthermore, system_server, one of the most performance critical system processes on android, saw over 50% reduction in GC compaction time on an arm64 android device.

userfaultfd: UFFDIO_MOVE uABI Implement the uABI of UFFDIO_MOVE ioctl. UFFDIO_COPY performs ~20% better than UFFDIO_MOVE when the application needs pages to be allocated [1]. However, with UFFDIO_MOVE, if pages are available (in userspace) for recycling, as is usually the case in heap compaction algorithms, then we can avoid the page allocation and memcpy (done by UFFDIO_COPY). Also, since the pages are recycled in the userspace, we avoid the need to release (via madvise) the pages back to the kernel [2]. We see over 40% reduction (on a Google pixel 6 device) in the compacting thread's completion time by using UFFDIO_MOVE vs. UFFDIO_COPY. This was measured using a benchmark that emulates a heap compaction implementation using userfaultfd (to allow concurrent accesses by application threads). More details of the usecase are explained in [2]. Furthermore, UFFDIO_MOVE enables moving swapped-out pages without touching them within the same vma. Today, it can only be done by mremap, however it forces splitting the vma.

When not specified, the holes will result in ENOENT error. When specified, the holes will be accounted as successfully moved memory. This is mostly useful to move hugepage aligned virtual regions without knowing if there are transparent hugepages in the regions or not, but preventing the risk of having to split the hugepage during the operation. The move field is used by the kernel to return the number of bytes that was actually moved, or an error (a negated errno- style value). If the value returned in move doesn't match the value that was specified in len, the operation fails with the error EAGAIN. The move field is output-only; it is not read by the UFFDIO_MOVE operation. The operation may fail for various reasons. Usually, remapping of pages that are not exclusive to the given process fail; once KSM might deduplicate pages or fork() COW-shares pages during fork() with child processes, they are no longer exclusive.

userfaultfd: remove (VM_)BUG_ON()s BUG_ON() is deprecated [1]. Convert all the BUG_ON()s and VM_BUG_ON()s to use VM_WARN_ON_ONCE(). There are a few additional cases that are converted or modified: - Convert the printk(KERN_WARNING ...) in handle_userfault() to use pr_warn(). - Convert the WARN_ON_ONCE()s in move_pages() to use VM_WARN_ON_ONCE(), as the relevant conditions are already checked in validate_range() in move_pages()'s caller. - Convert the VM_WARN_ON()'s in move_pages() to VM_WARN_ON_ONCE(). These cases should never happen and are similar to those in mfill_atomic() and mfill_atomic_hugetlb(), which were previously BUG_ON()s. move_pages() was added later than those functions and makes use of VM_WARN_ON() as a replacement for the deprecated BUG_ON(), but. VM_WARN_ON_ONCE() is likely a better direct replacement. - Convert the WARN_ON() for !VM_MAYWRITE in userfaultfd_unregister() and userfaultfd_register_range() to VM_WARN_ON_ONCE(). This condition is enforced in userfaultfd_register() so it should never happen, and can be converted to a debug check.

userfaultfd: move core VMA manipulation logic to mm/userfaultfd.c Patch series "Make core VMA operations internal and testable", v4. There are a number of "core" VMA manipulation functions implemented in mm/mmap.c, notably those concerning VMA merging, splitting, modifying, expanding and shrinking, which logically don't belong there. More importantly this functionality represents an internal implementation detail of memory management and should not be exposed outside of mm/ itself. This patch series isolates core VMA manipulation functionality into its own file, mm/vma.c, and provides an API to the rest of the mm code in mm/vma.h. Importantly, it also carefully implements mm/vma_internal.h, which specifies which headers need to be imported by vma.c, leading to the very useful property that vma.c depends only on mm/vma.h and mm/vma_internal.h. This means we can then re-implement vma_internal.h in userland, adding shims for kernel mechanisms as required, allowing us to unit test internal VMA functionality. This testing is useful as opposed to an e.g. kunit implementation as this way we can avoid all external kernel side-effects while testing, run tests VERY quickly, and iterate on and debug problems quickly. Excitingly this opens the door to, in the future, recreating precise problems observed in production in userland and very quickly debugging problems that might otherwise be very difficult to reproduce. This patch series takes advantage of existing shim logic and full userland maple tree support contained in tools/testing/radix-tree/ and tools/include/linux/, separating out shared components of the radix tree implementation to provide this testing. Kernel functionality is stubbed and shimmed as needed in tools/testing/vma/ which contains a fully functional userland vma_internal.h file and which imports mm/vma.c and mm/vma.h to be directly tested from userland. A simple, skeleton testing implementation is provided in tools/testing/vma/vma.c as a proof-of-concept, asserting that simple VMA merge, modify (testing split), expand and shrink functionality work correctly. This patch (of 4): This patch forms part of a patch series intending to separate out VMA logic and render it testable from userspace, which requires that core manipulation functions be exposed in an mm/-internal header file. In order to do this, we must abstract APIs we wish to test, in this instance functions which ultimately invoke vma_modify(). This patch therefore moves all logic which ultimately invokes vma_modify() to mm/userfaultfd.c, trying to transfer code at a functional granularity where possible.

userfaultfd: introduce vm_uffd_ops Current userfaultfd implementation works only with memory managed by core MM: anonymous, shmem and hugetlb. First, there is no fundamental reason to limit userfaultfd support only to the core memory types and userfaults can be handled similarly to regular page faults provided a VMA owner implements appropriate callbacks. Second, historically various code paths were conditioned on vma_is_anonymous(), vma_is_shmem() and is_vm_hugetlb_page() and some of these conditions can be expressed as operations implemented by a particular memory type. Introduce vm_uffd_ops extension to vm_operations_struct that will delegate memory type specific operations to a VMA owner. Operations for anonymous memory are handled internally in userfaultfd using anon_uffd_ops that implicitly assigned to anonymous VMAs. Start with a single operation, ->can_userfault() that will verify that a VMA meets requirements for userfaultfd support at registration time. Implement that method for anonymous, shmem and hugetlb and move relevant parts of vma_can_userfault() into the new callbacks.

userfaultfd: introduce vm_uffd_ops Current userfaultfd implementation works only with memory managed by core MM: anonymous, shmem and hugetlb. First, there is no fundamental reason to limit userfaultfd support only to the core memory types and userfaults can be handled similarly to regular page faults provided a VMA owner implements appropriate callbacks. Second, historically various code paths were conditioned on vma_is_anonymous(), vma_is_shmem() and is_vm_hugetlb_page() and some of these conditions can be expressed as operations implemented by a particular memory type. Introduce vm_uffd_ops extension to vm_operations_struct that will delegate memory type specific operations to a VMA owner. Operations for anonymous memory are handled internally in userfaultfd using anon_uffd_ops that implicitly assigned to anonymous VMAs.

userfaultfd: move core VMA manipulation logic to mm/userfaultfd.c Patch series "Make core VMA operations internal and testable", v4. There are a number of "core" VMA manipulation functions implemented in mm/mmap.c, notably those concerning VMA merging, splitting, modifying, expanding and shrinking, which logically don't belong there. More importantly this functionality represents an internal implementation detail of memory management and should not be exposed outside of mm/ itself. This patch series isolates core VMA manipulation functionality into its own file, mm/vma.c, and provides an API to the rest of the mm code in mm/vma.h. Importantly, it also carefully implements mm/vma_internal.h, which specifies which headers need to be imported by vma.c, leading to the very useful property that vma.c depends only on mm/vma.h and mm/vma_internal.h. This means we can then re-implement vma_internal.h in userland, adding shims for kernel mechanisms as required, allowing us to unit test internal VMA functionality. This testing is useful as opposed to an e.g. kunit implementation as this way we can avoid all external kernel side-effects while testing, run tests VERY quickly, and iterate on and debug problems quickly. Excitingly this opens the door to, in the future, recreating precise problems observed in production in userland and very quickly debugging problems that might otherwise be very difficult to reproduce. This patch series takes advantage of existing shim logic and full userland maple tree support contained in tools/testing/radix-tree/ and tools/include/linux/, separating out shared components of the radix tree implementation to provide this testing. Kernel functionality is stubbed and shimmed as needed in tools/testing/vma/ which contains a fully functional userland vma_internal.h file and which imports mm/vma.c and mm/vma.h to be directly tested from userland. A simple, skeleton testing implementation is provided in tools/testing/vma/vma.c as a proof-of-concept, asserting that simple VMA merge, modify (testing split), expand and shrink functionality work correctly. This patch (of 4): This patch forms part of a patch series intending to separate out VMA logic and render it testable from userspace, which requires that core manipulation functions be exposed in an mm/-internal header file. In order to do this, we must abstract APIs we wish to test, in this instance functions which ultimately invoke vma_modify(). This patch therefore moves all logic which ultimately invokes vma_modify() to mm/userfaultfd.c, trying to transfer code at a functional granularity where possible.

mm: update core kernel code to use vm_flags_t consistently The core kernel code is currently very inconsistent in its use of vm_flags_t vs. unsigned long. This prevents us from changing the type of vm_flags_t in the future and is simply not correct, so correct this. While this results in rather a lot of churn, it is a critical pre-requisite for a future planned change to VMA flag type. Additionally, update VMA userland tests to account for the changes. To make review easier and to break things into smaller parts, driver and architecture-specific changes is left for a subsequent commit. The code has been adjusted to cascade the changes across all calling code as far as is needed. We will adjust architecture-specific and driver code in a subsequent patch.

userfaultfd: move core VMA manipulation logic to mm/userfaultfd.c Patch series "Make core VMA operations internal and testable", v4. There are a number of "core" VMA manipulation functions implemented in mm/mmap.c, notably those concerning VMA merging, splitting, modifying, expanding and shrinking, which logically don't belong there. More importantly this functionality represents an internal implementation detail of memory management and should not be exposed outside of mm/ itself. This patch series isolates core VMA manipulation functionality into its own file, mm/vma.c, and provides an API to the rest of the mm code in mm/vma.h. Importantly, it also carefully implements mm/vma_internal.h, which specifies which headers need to be imported by vma.c, leading to the very useful property that vma.c depends only on mm/vma.h and mm/vma_internal.h. This means we can then re-implement vma_internal.h in userland, adding shims for kernel mechanisms as required, allowing us to unit test internal VMA functionality. This testing is useful as opposed to an e.g. kunit implementation as this way we can avoid all external kernel side-effects while testing, run tests VERY quickly, and iterate on and debug problems quickly. Excitingly this opens the door to, in the future, recreating precise problems observed in production in userland and very quickly debugging problems that might otherwise be very difficult to reproduce. This patch series takes advantage of existing shim logic and full userland maple tree support contained in tools/testing/radix-tree/ and tools/include/linux/, separating out shared components of the radix tree implementation to provide this testing. Kernel functionality is stubbed and shimmed as needed in tools/testing/vma/ which contains a fully functional userland vma_internal.h file and which imports mm/vma.c and mm/vma.h to be directly tested from userland. A simple, skeleton testing implementation is provided in tools/testing/vma/vma.c as a proof-of-concept, asserting that simple VMA merge, modify (testing split), expand and shrink functionality work correctly. This patch (of 4): This patch forms part of a patch series intending to separate out VMA logic and render it testable from userspace, which requires that core manipulation functions be exposed in an mm/-internal header file. In order to do this, we must abstract APIs we wish to test, in this instance functions which ultimately invoke vma_modify(). This patch therefore moves all logic which ultimately invokes vma_modify() to mm/userfaultfd.c, trying to transfer code at a functional granularity where possible.

mm: update core kernel code to use vm_flags_t consistently The core kernel code is currently very inconsistent in its use of vm_flags_t vs. unsigned long. This prevents us from changing the type of vm_flags_t in the future and is simply not correct, so correct this. While this results in rather a lot of churn, it is a critical pre-requisite for a future planned change to VMA flag type. Additionally, update VMA userland tests to account for the changes. To make review easier and to break things into smaller parts, driver and architecture-specific changes is left for a subsequent commit.

mm/vma: add give_up_on_oom option on modify/merge, use in uffd release Currently, if a VMA merge fails due to an OOM condition arising on commit merge or a failure to duplicate anon_vma's, we report this so the caller can handle it. However there are cases where the caller is only ostensibly trying a merge, and doesn't mind if it fails due to this condition. Since we do not want to introduce an implicit assumption that we only actually modify VMAs after OOM conditions might arise, add a 'give up on oom' option and make an explicit contract that, should this flag be set, we absolutely will not modify any VMAs should OOM arise and just bail out. Since it'd be very unusual for a user to try to vma_modify() with this flag set but be specifying a range within a VMA which ends up being split (which can fail due to rlimit issues, not only OOM), we add a debug warning for this condition. The motivating reason for this is uffd release - syzkaller (and Pedro Falcato's VERY astute analysis) found a way in which an injected fault on allocation, triggering an OOM condition on commit merge, would result in uffd code becoming confused and treating an error value as if it were a VMA pointer. To avoid this, we make use of this new VMG flag to ensure that this never occurs, utilising the fact that, should we be clearing entire VMAs, we do not wish an OOM event to be reported to us. Many thanks to Pedro Falcato for his excellent analysis and Jann Horn for his insightful and intelligent analysis of the situation, both of whom were instrumental in this fix.

mm/vma: convert vma_modify_flags[_uffd]() to use vma_flags_t Update the vma_modify_flags() and vma_modify_flags_uffd() functions to accept a vma_flags_t parameter rather than a vm_flags_t one, and propagate the changes as needed to implement this change. Also add vma_flags_reset_once() in replacement of vm_flags_reset_once(). We still need to be careful here because we need to avoid tearing, so maintain the assumption that the first system word set of flags are the only ones that require protection from tearing, and retain this functionality. We can copy the remainder of VMA flags above 64 bits normally. But hopefully by the time that happens, we will have replaced the logic that requires these WRITE_ONCE()'s with something else. We also replace instances of vm_flags_reset() with a simple write of VMA flags. We are no longer perform a number of checks, most notable of all the VMA flags asserts becase: 1. We might be operating on a VMA that is not yet added to the tree. 2. We might be operating on a VMA that is now detached. 3. Really in all but core code, you should be using vma_desc_xxx(). 4. Other VMA fields are manipulated with no such checks. 5. It'd be egregious to have to add variants of flag functions just to account for cases such as the above, especially when we don't do so for other VMA fields. Drivers are the problematic cases and why it was especially important (and also for debug as VMA locks were introduced), the mmap_prepare work is solving this generally. Additionally, we can fairly safely assume by this point the soft dirty flags are being set correctly, so it's reasonable to drop this also. Finally, update the VMA tests to reflect this.

mm/vma: add give_up_on_oom option on modify/merge, use in uffd release Currently, if a VMA merge fails due to an OOM condition arising on commit merge or a failure to duplicate anon_vma's, we report this so the caller can handle it. However there are cases where the caller is only ostensibly trying a merge, and doesn't mind if it fails due to this condition. Since we do not want to introduce an implicit assumption that we only actually modify VMAs after OOM conditions might arise, add a 'give up on oom' option and make an explicit contract that, should this flag be set, we absolutely will not modify any VMAs should OOM arise and just bail out. Since it'd be very unusual for a user to try to vma_modify() with this flag set but be specifying a range within a VMA which ends up being split (which can fail due to rlimit issues, not only OOM), we add a debug warning for this condition. The motivating reason for this is uffd release - syzkaller (and Pedro Falcato's VERY astute analysis) found a way in which an injected fault on allocation, triggering an OOM condition on commit merge, would result in uffd code becoming confused and treating an error value as if it were a VMA pointer. To avoid this, we make use of this new VMG flag to ensure that this never occurs, utilising the fact that, should we be clearing entire VMAs, we do not wish an OOM event to be reported to us. Many thanks to Pedro Falcato for his excellent analysis and Jann Horn for his insightful and intelligent analysis of the situation, both of whom were instrumental in this fix.

userfaultfd: move core VMA manipulation logic to mm/userfaultfd.c Patch series "Make core VMA operations internal and testable", v4. There are a number of "core" VMA manipulation functions implemented in mm/mmap.c, notably those concerning VMA merging, splitting, modifying, expanding and shrinking, which logically don't belong there. More importantly this functionality represents an internal implementation detail of memory management and should not be exposed outside of mm/ itself. This patch series isolates core VMA manipulation functionality into its own file, mm/vma.c, and provides an API to the rest of the mm code in mm/vma.h. Importantly, it also carefully implements mm/vma_internal.h, which specifies which headers need to be imported by vma.c, leading to the very useful property that vma.c depends only on mm/vma.h and mm/vma_internal.h. This means we can then re-implement vma_internal.h in userland, adding shims for kernel mechanisms as required, allowing us to unit test internal VMA functionality. This testing is useful as opposed to an e.g. kunit implementation as this way we can avoid all external kernel side-effects while testing, run tests VERY quickly, and iterate on and debug problems quickly. Excitingly this opens the door to, in the future, recreating precise problems observed in production in userland and very quickly debugging problems that might otherwise be very difficult to reproduce. This patch series takes advantage of existing shim logic and full userland maple tree support contained in tools/testing/radix-tree/ and tools/include/linux/, separating out shared components of the radix tree implementation to provide this testing. Kernel functionality is stubbed and shimmed as needed in tools/testing/vma/ which contains a fully functional userland vma_internal.h file and which imports mm/vma.c and mm/vma.h to be directly tested from userland. A simple, skeleton testing implementation is provided in tools/testing/vma/vma.c as a proof-of-concept, asserting that simple VMA merge, modify (testing split), expand and shrink functionality work correctly. This patch (of 4): This patch forms part of a patch series intending to separate out VMA logic and render it testable from userspace, which requires that core manipulation functions be exposed in an mm/-internal header file. In order to do this, we must abstract APIs we wish to test, in this instance functions which ultimately invoke vma_modify(). This patch therefore moves all logic which ultimately invokes vma_modify() to mm/userfaultfd.c, trying to transfer code at a functional granularity where possible.

userfaultfd: add UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_RWP and UFFDIO_RWPROTECT plumbing Add the userspace interface for read-write protection tracking: - UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_RWP register a range for RWP tracking - UFFD_FEATURE_RWP capability bit - UFFDIO_RWPROTECT install / remove RWP on a range Introduce CONFIG_USERFAULTFD_RWP, auto-selected on 64-bit kernels with ARCH_HAS_PTE_PROTNONE and HAVE_ARCH_USERFAULTFD_WP. The symbol gates VM_UFFD_RWP (previously aliased to VM_NONE) and the smaps/trace-flag hooks added in the preparatory patches; without it the UAPI bits added here have nothing to drive and would be unreachable. Registration sets VM_UFFD_RWP on the VMA. Combining MODE_WP with MODE_RWP is rejected because both modes claim the uffd PTE bit. UFFDIO_RWPROTECT is the bidirectional counterpart of UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT: - MODE_RWP change_protection() with MM_CP_UFFD_RWP installs PAGE_NONE and sets the uffd bit on present PTEs - !MODE_RWP change_protection() with MM_CP_UFFD_RWP_RESOLVE restores vma->vm_page_prot and clears the bit userfaultfd_clear_vma() runs the same resolve pass on unregister so RWP state cannot outlive the uffd. Re-registering a range must not drop a mode that installs per-PTE markers (WP or RWP); doing so returns -EBUSY. This also closes a pre-existing window where re-registering without MODE_WP would strand uffd-wp markers: before, those caused extra write-faults but were otherwise benign; with RWP preservation in place, a subsequent mprotect() on a VM_UFFD_RWP VMA would silently promote the stale markers to RWP. The feature is not yet advertised. UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_RWP, UFFD_FEATURE_RWP, and _UFFDIO_RWPROTECT are intentionally absent from UFFD_API_REGISTER_MODES, UFFD_API_FEATURES, and UFFD_API_RANGE_IOCTLS, so UFFDIO_API masks them out and the register-mode validator rejects the bit. The follow-up patch adds fault dispatch and exposes the UAPI.

mm/vma: convert vma_modify_flags[_uffd]() to use vma_flags_t Update the vma_modify_flags() and vma_modify_flags_uffd() functions to accept a vma_flags_t parameter rather than a vm_flags_t one, and propagate the changes as needed to implement this change. Also add vma_flags_reset_once() in replacement of vm_flags_reset_once(). We still need to be careful here because we need to avoid tearing, so maintain the assumption that the first system word set of flags are the only ones that require protection from tearing, and retain this functionality. We can copy the remainder of VMA flags above 64 bits normally. But hopefully by the time that happens, we will have replaced the logic that requires these WRITE_ONCE()'s with something else. We also replace instances of vm_flags_reset() with a simple write of VMA flags. We are no longer perform a number of checks, most notable of all the VMA flags asserts becase: 1. We might be operating on a VMA that is not yet added to the tree. 2. We might be operating on a VMA that is now detached. 3. Really in all but core code, you should be using vma_desc_xxx(). 4. Other VMA fields are manipulated with no such checks. 5. It'd be egregious to have to add variants of flag functions just to account for cases such as the above, especially when we don't do so for other VMA fields. Drivers are the problematic cases and why it was especially important (and also for debug as VMA locks were introduced), the mmap_prepare work is solving this generally. Additionally, we can fairly safely assume by this point the soft dirty flags are being set correctly, so it's reasonable to drop this also. Finally, update the VMA tests to reflect this.

mm: update core kernel code to use vm_flags_t consistently The core kernel code is currently very inconsistent in its use of vm_flags_t vs. unsigned long. This prevents us from changing the type of vm_flags_t in the future and is simply not correct, so correct this. While this results in rather a lot of churn, it is a critical pre-requisite for a future planned change to VMA flag type. Additionally, update VMA userland tests to account for the changes. To make review easier and to break things into smaller parts, driver and architecture-specific changes is left for a subsequent commit. The code has been adjusted to cascade the changes across all calling code as far as is needed. We will adjust architecture-specific and driver code in a subsequent patch. Overall, this patch does not introduce any functional change.

userfaultfd: move core VMA manipulation logic to mm/userfaultfd.c Patch series "Make core VMA operations internal and testable", v4. There are a number of "core" VMA manipulation functions implemented in mm/mmap.c, notably those concerning VMA merging, splitting, modifying, expanding and shrinking, which logically don't belong there. More importantly this functionality represents an internal implementation detail of memory management and should not be exposed outside of mm/ itself. This patch series isolates core VMA manipulation functionality into its own file, mm/vma.c, and provides an API to the rest of the mm code in mm/vma.h. Importantly, it also carefully implements mm/vma_internal.h, which specifies which headers need to be imported by vma.c, leading to the very useful property that vma.c depends only on mm/vma.h and mm/vma_internal.h. This means we can then re-implement vma_internal.h in userland, adding shims for kernel mechanisms as required, allowing us to unit test internal VMA functionality. This testing is useful as opposed to an e.g. kunit implementation as this way we can avoid all external kernel side-effects while testing, run tests VERY quickly, and iterate on and debug problems quickly. Excitingly this opens the door to, in the future, recreating precise problems observed in production in userland and very quickly debugging problems that might otherwise be very difficult to reproduce. This patch series takes advantage of existing shim logic and full userland maple tree support contained in tools/testing/radix-tree/ and tools/include/linux/, separating out shared components of the radix tree implementation to provide this testing. Kernel functionality is stubbed and shimmed as needed in tools/testing/vma/ which contains a fully functional userland vma_internal.h file and which imports mm/vma.c and mm/vma.h to be directly tested from userland. A simple, skeleton testing implementation is provided in tools/testing/vma/vma.c as a proof-of-concept, asserting that simple VMA merge, modify (testing split), expand and shrink functionality work correctly. This patch (of 4): This patch forms part of a patch series intending to separate out VMA logic and render it testable from userspace, which requires that core manipulation functions be exposed in an mm/-internal header file. In order to do this, we must abstract APIs we wish to test, in this instance functions which ultimately invoke vma_modify(). This patch therefore moves all logic which ultimately invokes vma_modify() to mm/userfaultfd.c, trying to transfer code at a functional granularity where possible.

mm/vma: convert vma_modify_flags[_uffd]() to use vma_flags_t Update the vma_modify_flags() and vma_modify_flags_uffd() functions to accept a vma_flags_t parameter rather than a vm_flags_t one, and propagate the changes as needed to implement this change. Also add vma_flags_reset_once() in replacement of vm_flags_reset_once(). We still need to be careful here because we need to avoid tearing, so maintain the assumption that the first system word set of flags are the only ones that require protection from tearing, and retain this functionality. We can copy the remainder of VMA flags above 64 bits normally. But hopefully by the time that happens, we will have replaced the logic that requires these WRITE_ONCE()'s with something else. We also replace instances of vm_flags_reset() with a simple write of VMA flags. We are no longer perform a number of checks, most notable of all the VMA flags asserts becase: 1. We might be operating on a VMA that is not yet added to the tree. 2. We might be operating on a VMA that is now detached. 3. Really in all but core code, you should be using vma_desc_xxx(). 4. Other VMA fields are manipulated with no such checks. 5. It'd be egregious to have to add variants of flag functions just to account for cases such as the above, especially when we don't do so for other VMA fields. Drivers are the problematic cases and why it was especially important (and also for debug as VMA locks were introduced), the mmap_prepare work is solving this generally. Additionally, we can fairly safely assume by this point the soft dirty flags are being set correctly, so it's reasonable to drop this also. Finally, update the VMA tests to reflect this.

userfaultfd: remove (VM_)BUG_ON()s BUG_ON() is deprecated [1]. Convert all the BUG_ON()s and VM_BUG_ON()s to use VM_WARN_ON_ONCE(). There are a few additional cases that are converted or modified: - Convert the printk(KERN_WARNING ...) in handle_userfault() to use pr_warn(). - Convert the WARN_ON_ONCE()s in move_pages() to use VM_WARN_ON_ONCE(), as the relevant conditions are already checked in validate_range() in move_pages()'s caller. - Convert the VM_WARN_ON()'s in move_pages() to VM_WARN_ON_ONCE(). These cases should never happen and are similar to those in mfill_atomic() and mfill_atomic_hugetlb(), which were previously BUG_ON()s. move_pages() was added later than those functions and makes use of VM_WARN_ON() as a replacement for the deprecated BUG_ON(), but. VM_WARN_ON_ONCE() is likely a better direct replacement. - Convert the WARN_ON() for !VM_MAYWRITE in userfaultfd_unregister() and userfaultfd_register_range() to VM_WARN_ON_ONCE(). This condition is enforced in userfaultfd_register() so it should never happen, and can be converted to a debug check.

mm/vma: convert vma_modify_flags[_uffd]() to use vma_flags_t Update the vma_modify_flags() and vma_modify_flags_uffd() functions to accept a vma_flags_t parameter rather than a vm_flags_t one, and propagate the changes as needed to implement this change. Also add vma_flags_reset_once() in replacement of vm_flags_reset_once(). We still need to be careful here because we need to avoid tearing, so maintain the assumption that the first system word set of flags are the only ones that require protection from tearing, and retain this functionality. We can copy the remainder of VMA flags above 64 bits normally. But hopefully by the time that happens, we will have replaced the logic that requires these WRITE_ONCE()'s with something else. We also replace instances of vm_flags_reset() with a simple write of VMA flags. We are no longer perform a number of checks, most notable of all the VMA flags asserts becase: 1. We might be operating on a VMA that is not yet added to the tree. 2. We might be operating on a VMA that is now detached. 3. Really in all but core code, you should be using vma_desc_xxx(). 4. Other VMA fields are manipulated with no such checks. 5. It'd be egregious to have to add variants of flag functions just to account for cases such as the above, especially when we don't do so for other VMA fields. Drivers are the problematic cases and why it was especially important (and also for debug as VMA locks were introduced), the mmap_prepare work is solving this generally.

userfaultfd: move core VMA manipulation logic to mm/userfaultfd.c Patch series "Make core VMA operations internal and testable", v4. There are a number of "core" VMA manipulation functions implemented in mm/mmap.c, notably those concerning VMA merging, splitting, modifying, expanding and shrinking, which logically don't belong there. More importantly this functionality represents an internal implementation detail of memory management and should not be exposed outside of mm/ itself. This patch series isolates core VMA manipulation functionality into its own file, mm/vma.c, and provides an API to the rest of the mm code in mm/vma.h. Importantly, it also carefully implements mm/vma_internal.h, which specifies which headers need to be imported by vma.c, leading to the very useful property that vma.c depends only on mm/vma.h and mm/vma_internal.h. This means we can then re-implement vma_internal.h in userland, adding shims for kernel mechanisms as required, allowing us to unit test internal VMA functionality. This testing is useful as opposed to an e.g. kunit implementation as this way we can avoid all external kernel side-effects while testing, run tests VERY quickly, and iterate on and debug problems quickly.

userfaultfd: add UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_RWP and UFFDIO_RWPROTECT plumbing Add the userspace interface for read-write protection tracking: - UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_RWP register a range for RWP tracking - UFFD_FEATURE_RWP capability bit - UFFDIO_RWPROTECT install / remove RWP on a range Introduce CONFIG_USERFAULTFD_RWP, auto-selected on 64-bit kernels with ARCH_HAS_PTE_PROTNONE and HAVE_ARCH_USERFAULTFD_WP. The symbol gates VM_UFFD_RWP (previously aliased to VM_NONE) and the smaps/trace-flag hooks added in the preparatory patches; without it the UAPI bits added here have nothing to drive and would be unreachable. Registration sets VM_UFFD_RWP on the VMA. Combining MODE_WP with MODE_RWP is rejected because both modes claim the uffd PTE bit. UFFDIO_RWPROTECT is the bidirectional counterpart of UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT: - MODE_RWP change_protection() with MM_CP_UFFD_RWP installs PAGE_NONE and sets the uffd bit on present PTEs - !MODE_RWP change_protection() with MM_CP_UFFD_RWP_RESOLVE restores vma->vm_page_prot and clears the bit userfaultfd_clear_vma() runs the same resolve pass on unregister so RWP state cannot outlive the uffd. Re-registering a range must not drop a mode that installs per-PTE markers (WP or RWP); doing so returns -EBUSY. This also closes a pre-existing window where re-registering without MODE_WP would strand uffd-wp markers: before, those caused extra write-faults but were otherwise benign; with RWP preservation in place, a subsequent mprotect() on a VM_UFFD_RWP VMA would silently promote the stale markers to RWP. The feature is not yet advertised. UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_RWP, UFFD_FEATURE_RWP, and _UFFDIO_RWPROTECT are intentionally absent from UFFD_API_REGISTER_MODES, UFFD_API_FEATURES, and UFFD_API_RANGE_IOCTLS, so UFFDIO_API masks them out and the register-mode validator rejects the bit. The follow-up patch adds fault dispatch and exposes the UAPI.

mm/vma: add give_up_on_oom option on modify/merge, use in uffd release Currently, if a VMA merge fails due to an OOM condition arising on commit merge or a failure to duplicate anon_vma's, we report this so the caller can handle it. However there are cases where the caller is only ostensibly trying a merge, and doesn't mind if it fails due to this condition. Since we do not want to introduce an implicit assumption that we only actually modify VMAs after OOM conditions might arise, add a 'give up on oom' option and make an explicit contract that, should this flag be set, we absolutely will not modify any VMAs should OOM arise and just bail out. Since it'd be very unusual for a user to try to vma_modify() with this flag set but be specifying a range within a VMA which ends up being split (which can fail due to rlimit issues, not only OOM), we add a debug warning for this condition. The motivating reason for this is uffd release - syzkaller (and Pedro Falcato's VERY astute analysis) found a way in which an injected fault on allocation, triggering an OOM condition on commit merge, would result in uffd code becoming confused and treating an error value as if it were a VMA pointer. To avoid this, we make use of this new VMG flag to ensure that this never occurs, utilising the fact that, should we be clearing entire VMAs, we do not wish an OOM event to be reported to us. Many thanks to Pedro Falcato for his excellent analysis and Jann Horn for his insightful and intelligent analysis of the situation, both of whom were instrumental in this fix.

userfaultfd: move core VMA manipulation logic to mm/userfaultfd.c Patch series "Make core VMA operations internal and testable", v4. There are a number of "core" VMA manipulation functions implemented in mm/mmap.c, notably those concerning VMA merging, splitting, modifying, expanding and shrinking, which logically don't belong there. More importantly this functionality represents an internal implementation detail of memory management and should not be exposed outside of mm/ itself. This patch series isolates core VMA manipulation functionality into its own file, mm/vma.c, and provides an API to the rest of the mm code in mm/vma.h. Importantly, it also carefully implements mm/vma_internal.h, which specifies which headers need to be imported by vma.c, leading to the very useful property that vma.c depends only on mm/vma.h and mm/vma_internal.h. This means we can then re-implement vma_internal.h in userland, adding shims for kernel mechanisms as required, allowing us to unit test internal VMA functionality. This testing is useful as opposed to an e.g. kunit implementation as this way we can avoid all external kernel side-effects while testing, run tests VERY quickly, and iterate on and debug problems quickly. Excitingly this opens the door to, in the future, recreating precise problems observed in production in userland and very quickly debugging problems that might otherwise be very difficult to reproduce. This patch series takes advantage of existing shim logic and full userland maple tree support contained in tools/testing/radix-tree/ and tools/include/linux/, separating out shared components of the radix tree implementation to provide this testing. Kernel functionality is stubbed and shimmed as needed in tools/testing/vma/ which contains a fully functional userland vma_internal.h file and which imports mm/vma.c and mm/vma.h to be directly tested from userland. A simple, skeleton testing implementation is provided in tools/testing/vma/vma.c as a proof-of-concept, asserting that simple VMA merge, modify (testing split), expand and shrink functionality work correctly. This patch (of 4): This patch forms part of a patch series intending to separate out VMA logic and render it testable from userspace, which requires that core manipulation functions be exposed in an mm/-internal header file. In order to do this, we must abstract APIs we wish to test, in this instance functions which ultimately invoke vma_modify(). This patch therefore moves all logic which ultimately invokes vma_modify() to mm/userfaultfd.c, trying to transfer code at a functional granularity where possible.

userfaultfd: remove (VM_)BUG_ON()s BUG_ON() is deprecated [1]. Convert all the BUG_ON()s and VM_BUG_ON()s to use VM_WARN_ON_ONCE(). There are a few additional cases that are converted or modified: - Convert the printk(KERN_WARNING ...) in handle_userfault() to use pr_warn(). - Convert the WARN_ON_ONCE()s in move_pages() to use VM_WARN_ON_ONCE(), as the relevant conditions are already checked in validate_range() in move_pages()'s caller. - Convert the VM_WARN_ON()'s in move_pages() to VM_WARN_ON_ONCE(). These cases should never happen and are similar to those in mfill_atomic() and mfill_atomic_hugetlb(), which were previously BUG_ON()s. move_pages() was added later than those functions and makes use of VM_WARN_ON() as a replacement for the deprecated BUG_ON(), but. VM_WARN_ON_ONCE() is likely a better direct replacement. - Convert the WARN_ON() for !VM_MAYWRITE in userfaultfd_unregister() and userfaultfd_register_range() to VM_WARN_ON_ONCE(). This condition is enforced in userfaultfd_register() so it should never happen, and can be converted to a debug check.

userfaultfd: add UFFDIO_SET_MODE for runtime sync/async toggle Add an ioctl to toggle async mode at runtime without re-registering the userfaultfd. This allows a VMM to switch between sync and async RWP modes on-the-fly -- for example, starting in async mode for working set scanning, then switching to sync mode to intercept faults during page eviction. UFFDIO_SET_MODE takes an enable/disable bitmask of UFFD_FEATURE_* flags. Only UFFD_FEATURE_RWP_ASYNC is toggleable today; the ioctl rejects any other bit with -EINVAL. Enabling RWP_ASYNC also requires RWP to have been negotiated at UFFDIO_API time, mirroring the UFFDIO_API invariant. Fault-path readers of ctx->features run under mmap_read_lock or a per-VMA lock; the RMW takes mmap_write_lock and calls vma_start_write() on every UFFD-armed VMA, so those readers are fully excluded. userfaultfd_show_fdinfo(), however, reads ctx->features without any lock, so the RMW is written as a single WRITE_ONCE and fdinfo reads it with READ_ONCE. That keeps the lockless observer from seeing a mid-RMW intermediate and removes the audit burden when new toggleable bits are added later. When switching to async, pending sync waiters are woken so they retry and auto-resolve under the new mode.

userfaultfd: add UFFD_FEATURE_RWP_ASYNC for async fault resolution Sync RWP delivers a message and blocks the faulting thread until the handler resolves the fault. For working-set tracking the VMM does not need the message: it just needs to know, at scan time, which pages were touched. Async RWP serves that use case — the kernel restores access in-place and the faulting thread continues without blocking. The VMM reconstructs the access pattern after the fact via PAGEMAP_SCAN: pages whose uffd bit is still set (inverted PAGE_IS_ACCESSED) were not re-accessed since the last RWP cycle. Worth calling out: async resolution upgrades writable private anon PTEs via pte_mkwrite() when can_change_pte_writable() allows, mirroring do_numa_page(). Without it, every re-access of an RWP'd writable page would COW-fault a second time. UFFD_FEATURE_RWP_ASYNC requires UFFD_FEATURE_RWP.

This allows a VMM to switch between sync and async RWP modes on-the-fly -- for example, starting in async mode for working set scanning, then switching to sync mode to intercept faults during page eviction. UFFDIO_SET_MODE takes an enable/disable bitmask of UFFD_FEATURE_* flags. Only UFFD_FEATURE_RWP_ASYNC is toggleable today; the ioctl rejects any other bit with -EINVAL. Enabling RWP_ASYNC also requires RWP to have been negotiated at UFFDIO_API time, mirroring the UFFDIO_API invariant. Fault-path readers of ctx->features run under mmap_read_lock or a per-VMA lock; the RMW takes mmap_write_lock and calls vma_start_write() on every UFFD-armed VMA, so those readers are fully excluded. userfaultfd_show_fdinfo(), however, reads ctx->features without any lock, so the RMW is written as a single WRITE_ONCE and fdinfo reads it with READ_ONCE.

This also closes a pre-existing window where re-registering without MODE_WP would strand uffd-wp markers: before, those caused extra write-faults but were otherwise benign; with RWP preservation in place, a subsequent mprotect() on a VM_UFFD_RWP VMA would silently promote the stale markers to RWP.

userfaultfd: add UFFDIO_SET_MODE for runtime sync/async toggle Add an ioctl to toggle async mode at runtime without re-registering the userfaultfd. This allows a VMM to switch between sync and async RWP modes on-the-fly -- for example, starting in async mode for working set scanning, then switching to sync mode to intercept faults during page eviction. UFFDIO_SET_MODE takes an enable/disable bitmask of UFFD_FEATURE_* flags. Only UFFD_FEATURE_RWP_ASYNC is toggleable today; the ioctl rejects any other bit with -EINVAL. Enabling RWP_ASYNC also requires RWP to have been negotiated at UFFDIO_API time, mirroring the UFFDIO_API invariant. Fault-path readers of ctx->features run under mmap_read_lock or a per-VMA lock; the RMW takes mmap_write_lock and calls vma_start_write() on every UFFD-armed VMA, so those readers are fully excluded. userfaultfd_show_fdinfo(), however, reads ctx->features without any lock, so the RMW is written as a single WRITE_ONCE and fdinfo reads it with READ_ONCE. That keeps the lockless observer from seeing a mid-RMW intermediate and removes the audit burden when new toggleable bits are added later. When switching to async, pending sync waiters are woken so they retry and auto-resolve under the new mode.

userfaultfd: add UFFD_FEATURE_RWP_ASYNC for async fault resolution Sync RWP delivers a message and blocks the faulting thread until the handler resolves the fault. For working-set tracking the VMM does not need the message: it just needs to know, at scan time, which pages were touched. Async RWP serves that use case — the kernel restores access in-place and the faulting thread continues without blocking. The VMM reconstructs the access pattern after the fact via PAGEMAP_SCAN: pages whose uffd bit is still set (inverted PAGE_IS_ACCESSED) were not re-accessed since the last RWP cycle.

This allows a VMM to switch between sync and async RWP modes on-the-fly -- for example, starting in async mode for working set scanning, then switching to sync mode to intercept faults during page eviction. UFFDIO_SET_MODE takes an enable/disable bitmask of UFFD_FEATURE_* flags. Only UFFD_FEATURE_RWP_ASYNC is toggleable today; the ioctl rejects any other bit with -EINVAL. Enabling RWP_ASYNC also requires RWP to have been negotiated at UFFDIO_API time, mirroring the UFFDIO_API invariant. Fault-path readers of ctx->features run under mmap_read_lock or a per-VMA lock; the RMW takes mmap_write_lock and calls vma_start_write() on every UFFD-armed VMA, so those readers are fully excluded. userfaultfd_show_fdinfo(), however, reads ctx->features without any lock, so the RMW is written as a single WRITE_ONCE and fdinfo reads it with READ_ONCE. That keeps the lockless observer from seeing a mid-RMW intermediate and removes the audit burden when new toggleable bits are added later. When switching to async, pending sync waiters are woken so they retry and auto-resolve under the new mode.
