Replace all READ_ONCE() with a standard page table accessors i.e
pxdp_get() that defaults into READ_ONCE() in cases where platform does not
override.

follow_page_pte()
In case we call arch_make_folio_accessible() and it fails, we would
incorrectly return a value that is "!= 0" to the caller, indicating that
we pinned all requested pages and that the caller can keep going.
follow_page_pte() is not supposed to return error values, but instead "0"
on failure and "1" on success -- we'll clean that up separately.
In case we return "!= 0", the caller will just keep going pinning more
pages. If we happen to pin a page afterwards, we're in trouble, because
we essentially skipped some pages in the requested range.
Staring at the arch_make_folio_accessible() implementation on s390x, I
assume it should actually never really fail unless something unexpected
happens (BUG?). So let's not CC stable and just fix common code to do the
right thing.
Clean up the code a bit now that there is no reason to store the return
value of arch_make_folio_accessible().

Prior to commit aed877c2b425 ("device/dax: properly refcount device dax
pages when mapping") ZONE_DEVICE pages were not fully reference counted
when mapped into user page tables. Instead GUP would take a reference on
the associated pgmap to ensure the results of pfn_to_page() remained
valid.
This is no longer required and most of the code was removed by commit
fd2825b0760a ("mm/gup: remove pXX_devmap usage from get_user_pages()").
Finish cleaning this up by removing the dead calls to put_dev_pagemap()
and the temporary context struct.

There is the concern that unpin_user_page_range_dirty_lock() might do some
weird merging of PFN ranges -- either now or in the future -- such that
PFN range is contiguous but the page range might not be.
Let's sanity-check for that and drop the nth_page() usage.

We can just cleanup the code by calculating the #refs earlier, so we can
just inline what remains of record_subpages().
Calculate the number of references/pages ahead of times, and record them
only once all our tests passed.

As part of the effort to move to mm->flags becoming a bitmap field,
convert existing users to making use of the mm_flags_*() accessors which
will, when the conversion is complete, be the only means of accessing
mm_struct flags.
This will result in the debug output being that of a bitmap output, which
will result in a minor change here, but since this is for debug only, this
should have no bearing.
Otherwise, no functional changes intended.

mm/swap.c and mm/mlock.c agree to drain any per-CPU batch as soon as a
large folio is added: so collect_longterm_unpinnable_folios() just wastes
effort when calling lru_add_drain[_all]() on a large folio.
But although there is good reason not to batch up PMD-sized folios, we
might well benefit from batching a small number of low-order mTHPs (though
unclear how that "small number" limitation will be implemented).
So ask if folio_may_be_lru_cached() rather than !folio_test_large(), to
insulate those particular checks from future change. Name preferred to
"folio_is_batchable" because large folios can well be put on a batch: it's
just the per-CPU LRU caches, drained much later, which need care.
Marked for stable, to counter the increase in lru_add_drain_all()s from
"mm/gup: check ref_count instead of lru before migration".

In many cases, if collect_longterm_unpinnable_folios() does need to drain
the LRU cache to release a reference, the cache in question is on this
same CPU, and much more efficiently drained by a preliminary local
lru_add_drain(), than the later cross-CPU lru_add_drain_all().
Marked for stable, to counter the increase in lru_add_drain_all()s from
"mm/gup: check ref_count instead of lru before migration". Note for clean
backports: can take 6.16 commit a03db236aebf ("gup: optimize longterm
pin_user_pages() for large folio") first.

Patch series "mm: better GUP pin lru_add_drain_all()", v2.
Series of lru_add_drain_all()-related patches, arising from recent mm/gup
migration report from Will Deacon.
This patch (of 5):
Will Deacon reports:-
When taking a longterm GUP pin via pin_user_pages(),
__gup_longterm_locked() tries to migrate target folios that should not be
longterm pinned, for example because they reside in a CMA region or
movable zone. This is done by first pinning all of the target folios
anyway, collecting all of the longterm-unpinnable target folios into a
list, dropping the pins that were just taken and finally handing the list
off to migrate_pages() for the actual migration.
It is critically important that no unexpected references are held on the
folios being migrated, otherwise the migration will fail and
pin_user_pages() will return -ENOMEM to its caller. Unfortunately, it is
relatively easy to observe migration failures when running pKVM (which
uses pin_user_pages() on crosvm's virtual address space to resolve stage-2
page faults from the guest) on a 6.15-based Pixel 6 device and this
results in the VM terminating prematurely.
In the failure case, 'crosvm' has called mlock(MLOCK_ONFAULT) on its
mapping of guest memory prior to the pinning. Subsequently, when
pin_user_pages() walks the page-table, the relevant 'pte' is not present
and so the faulting logic allocates a new folio, mlocks it with
mlock_folio() and maps it in the page-table.
Since commit 2fbb0c10d1e8 ("mm/munlock: mlock_page() munlock_page() batch
by pagevec"), mlock/munlock operations on a folio (formerly page), are
deferred. For example, mlock_folio() takes an additional reference on the
target folio before placing it into a per-cpu 'folio_batch' for later
processing by mlock_folio_batch(), which drops the refcount once the
operation is complete. Processing of the batches is coupled with the LRU
batch logic and can be forcefully drained with lru_add_drain_all() but as
long as a folio remains unprocessed on the batch, its refcount will be
elevated.
This deferred batching therefore interacts poorly with the pKVM pinning
scenario as we can find ourselves in a situation where the migration code
fails to migrate a folio due to the elevated refcount from the pending
mlock operation.
Hugh Dickins adds:-
!folio_test_lru() has never been a very reliable way to tell if an
lru_add_drain_all() is worth calling, to remove LRU cache references to
make the folio migratable: the LRU flag may be set even while the folio is
held with an extra reference in a per-CPU LRU cache.
5.18 commit 2fbb0c10d1e8 may have made it more unreliable. Then 6.11
commit 33dfe9204f29 ("mm/gup: clear the LRU flag of a page before adding
to LRU batch") tried to make it reliable, by moving LRU flag clearing; but
missed the mlock/munlock batches, so still unreliable as reported.
And it turns out to be difficult to extend 33dfe9204f29's LRU flag
clearing to the mlock/munlock batches: if they do benefit from batching,
mlock/munlock cannot be so effective when easily suppressed while !LRU.
Instead, switch to an expected ref_count check, which was more reliable
all along: some more false positives (unhelpful drains) than before, and
never a guarantee that the folio will prove migratable, but better.
Note on PG_private_2: ceph and nfs are still using the deprecated
PG_private_2 flag, with the aid of netfs and filemap support functions.
Although it is consistently matched by an increment of folio ref_count,
folio_expected_ref_count() intentionally does not recognize it, and ceph
folio migration currently depends on that for PG_private_2 folios to be
rejected. New references to the deprecated flag are discouraged, so do
not add it into the collect_longterm_unpinnable_folios() calculation: but
longterm pinning of transiently PG_private_2 ceph and nfs folios (an
uncommon case) may invoke a redundant lru_add_drain_all(). And this makes
easy the backport to earlier releases: up to and including 6.12, btrfs
also used PG_private_2, but without a ref_count increment.
Note for stable backports: requires 6.16 commit 86ebd50224c0 ("mm:
add folio_expected_ref_count() for reference count calculation").

GUP uses pXX_devmap() calls to see if it needs to a get a reference on the
associated pgmap data structure to ensure the pages won't go away.
However it's a driver responsibility to ensure that if pages are mapped
(ie. discoverable by GUP) that they are not offlined or removed from the
memmap so there is no need to hold a reference on the pgmap data structure
to ensure this.
Furthermore mappings with PFN_DEV are no longer created, hence this
effectively dead code anyway so can be removed.

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.

In the current implementation of longterm pin_user_pages(), we invoke
collect_longterm_unpinnable_folios(). This function iterates through the
list to check whether each folio belongs to the "longterm_unpinnabled"
category. The folios in this list essentially correspond to a contiguous
region of userspace addresses, with each folio representing a physical
address in increments of PAGESIZE.
If this userspace address range is mapped with large folio, we can
optimize the performance of function collect_longterm_unpinnable_folios()
by reducing the using of READ_ONCE() invoked in
pofs_get_folio()->page_folio()->_compound_head().
Also, we can simplify the logic of collect_longterm_unpinnable_folios().
Instead of comparing with prev_folio after calling pofs_get_folio(), we
can check whether the next page is within the same folio.
The performance test results, based on v6.15, obtained through the
gup_test tool from the kernel source tree are as follows. We achieve an
improvement of over 66% for large folio with pagesize=2M. For small
folio, we have only observed a very slight degradation in performance.

Especially once we hit one of the assertions in
sanity_check_pinned_pages(), observing follow-up assertions failing in
other code can give good clues about what went wrong, so use
VM_WARN_ON_ONCE instead.
While at it, let's just convert all VM_BUG_ON to VM_WARN_ON_ONCE as well.
Add one comment for the pfn_valid() check.
We have to introduce VM_WARN_ON_ONCE_VMA() to make that fly.
Drop the BUG_ON after mmap_read_lock_killable(), if that ever returns
something > 0 we're in bigger trouble. Convert the other BUG_ON's into
VM_WARN_ON_ONCE as well, they are in a similar domain "should never
happen", but more reasonable to check for during early testing.

After commit 1aaf8c122918 ("mm: gup: fix infinite loop within
__get_longterm_locked") we are able to longterm pin folios that are not
supposed to get longterm pinned, simply because they temporarily have the
LRU flag cleared (esp. temporarily isolated).
For example, two __get_longterm_locked() callers can race, or
__get_longterm_locked() can race with anything else that temporarily
isolates folios.
The introducing commit mentions the use case of a driver that uses
vm_ops->fault to insert pages allocated through cma_alloc() into the page
tables, assuming they can later get longterm pinned. These pages/ folios
would never have the LRU flag set and consequently cannot get isolated.
There is no known in-tree user making use of that so far, fortunately.
To handle that in the future -- and avoid retrying forever to
isolate/migrate them -- we will need a different mechanism for the CMA
area *owner* to indicate that it actually already allocated the page and
is fine with longterm pinning it. The LRU flag is not suitable for that.
Probably we can lookup the relevant CMA area and query the bitmap; we only
have have to care about some races, probably. If already allocated, we
could just allow longterm pinning)
Anyhow, let's fix the "must not be longterm pinned" problem first by
reverting the original commit.

The current comment in gup_fast() talks about "IPIs that come from THPs
splitting", which is outdated and refers to the old THP splitting
implementation that was removed in commit ad0bed24e98b ("thp: drop all
split_huge_page()-related code"), which landed in v4.5. Before then, THP
splitting involved a pmdp_splitting_flush(), which sent an IPI to
serialize against gup_fast().
Nowadays, we use tlb_remove_table_sync_one() to send IPIs that serialize
against gup_fast(); this is used, for example, in THP *collapsing* to stop
gup_fast() walks of a page table before depositing it.

Remove pgd_offset_gate() completely and simply make the single caller use
pgd_offset().
It appears that the gate area resides in the kernel-mapped segment
exclusively on IA64. Therefore, removing pgd_offset_k is safe since IA64
is now obsolete.

Patch series "mm/gup: Cleanup memfd_pin_folios()".
A couple straightforward cleanups to memfd_pin_folios() found through code
inspection. Saves 124 bytes of kernel text overall and makes the code
more readable.
This patch (of 2):
Commit 89c1905d9c14 ("mm/gup: introduce memfd_pin_folios() for pinning
memfd folios") checks if filemap_get_folios_contig() returned duplicate
folios to prevent multiple attempts at pinning the same folio.
Commit 8ab1b1602396 ("mm: fix filemap_get_folios_contig returning batches
of identical folios") ensures that filemap_get_folios_contig() returns a
batch of distinct folios.
We can remove the duplicate folio check to simplify the code and save 58
bytes of text.

The code style in fault_in_readable() and fault_in_writable() is a little
inconsistent with fault_in_safe_writeable(). In fault_in_readable() and
fault_in_writable(), it uses 'uaddr' passed in as loop cursor. While in
fault_in_safe_writeable(), local variable 'start' is used as loop cursor.
This may mislead people when reading code or making change in these codes.
Here define explicit loop cursor and use for loop to simplify codes in
these three functions. These cleanup can make them be consistent in code
style and improve readability.

In the current kernel, only pud huge page is supported in some
architectures. P4d and pgd huge pages haven't been supported yet. And in
mm/gup.c, there's no pgd huge page handling in the follow_page_mask() code
path. Hence it doesn't make sense to only have gup_fast_pgd_leaf() in
gup_fast code path.
Here remove gup_fast_pgd_leaf() and clean up the relevant codes.

Patch series "mm/gup: Minor fix, cleanup and improvements", v4.
These were made from code inspection in mm/gup.c.
This patch (of 3):
In __get_user_pages(), it will traverse page table and take a reference to
the page the given user address corresponds to if GUP_GET or GUP_PIN is
set. However, it's not supported both GUP_GET and GUP_PIN are set. Even
though this check need be done, it should be done earlier, but not doing
it till entering into follow_page_pte() and failed.
Furthermore, this checking has been done in is_valid_gup_args() and all
external users of __get_user_pages() will call is_valid_gup_args() to
catch the illegal setting. We don't need to worry about internal users of
__get_user_pages() because the gup_flags are set by MM code correctly.
Here remove the checking in follow_page_pte(), and add VM_WARN_ON_ONCE()
to catch the possible exceptional setting just in case.
And also change the VM_BUG_ON to VM_WARN_ON_ONCE() for checking (!!pages
!= !!(gup_flags & (FOLL_GET | FOLL_PIN))) because the checking has been
done in is_valid_gup_args() for external users of __get_user_pages().

Not like fault_in_readable() or fault_in_writeable(), in
fault_in_safe_writeable() local variable 'start' is increased page by page
to loop till the whole address range is handled. However, it mistakenly
calculates the size of the handled range with 'uaddr - start'.
Fix it here.
Andreas said:
: In gfs2, fault_in_iov_iter_writeable() is used in
: gfs2_file_direct_read() and gfs2_file_read_iter(), so this potentially
: affects buffered as well as direct reads. This bug could cause those
: gfs2 functions to spin in a loop.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- The series "Enable strict percpu address space checks" from Uros
Bizjak uses x86 named address space qualifiers to provide
compile-time checking of percpu area accesses.
This has caused a small amount of fallout - two or three issues were
reported. In all cases the calling code was found to be incorrect.
- The series "Some cleanup for memcg" from Chen Ridong implements some
relatively monir cleanups for the memcontrol code.
- The series "mm: fixes for device-exclusive entries (hmm)" from David
Hildenbrand fixes a boatload of issues which David found then using
device-exclusive PTE entries when THP is enabled. More work is
needed, but this makes thins better - our own HMM selftests now
succeed.
- The series "mm: zswap: remove z3fold and zbud" from Yosry Ahmed
remove the z3fold and zbud implementations. They have been deprecated
for half a year and nobody has complained.
- The series "mm: further simplify VMA merge operation" from Lorenzo
Stoakes implements numerous simplifications in this area. No runtime
effects are anticipated.
- The series "mm/madvise: remove redundant mmap_lock operations from
process_madvise()" from SeongJae Park rationalizes the locking in the
madvise() implementation. Performance gains of 20-25% were observed
in one MADV_DONTNEED microbenchmark.
- The series "Tiny cleanup and improvements about SWAP code" from
Baoquan He contains a number of touchups to issues which Baoquan
noticed when working on the swap code.
- The series "mm: kmemleak: Usability improvements" from Catalin
Marinas implements a couple of improvements to the kmemleak
user-visible output.
- The series "mm/damon/paddr: fix large folios access and schemes
handling" from Usama Arif provides a couple of fixes for DAMON's
handling of large folios.
- The series "mm/damon/core: fix wrong and/or useless damos_walk()
behaviors" from SeongJae Park fixes a few issues with the accuracy of
kdamond's walking of DAMON regions.
- The series "expose mapping wrprotect, fix fb_defio use" from Lorenzo
Stoakes changes the interaction between framebuffer deferred-io and
core MM. No functional changes are anticipated - this is preparatory
work for the future removal of page structure fields.
- The series "mm/damon: add support for hugepage_size DAMOS filter"
from Usama Arif adds a DAMOS filter which permits the filtering by
huge page sizes.
- The series "mm: permit guard regions for file-backed/shmem mappings"
from Lorenzo Stoakes extends the guard region feature from its
present "anon mappings only" state. The feature now covers shmem and
file-backed mappings.
- The series "mm: batched unmap lazyfree large folios during
reclamation" from Barry Song cleans up and speeds up the unmapping
for pte-mapped large folios.
- The series "reimplement per-vma lock as a refcount" from Suren
Baghdasaryan puts the vm_lock back into the vma. Our reasons for
pulling it out were largely bogus and that change made the code more
messy. This patchset provides small (0-10%) improvements on one
microbenchmark.
- The series "Docs/mm/damon: misc DAMOS filters documentation fixes and

docs.
- The series "hugetlb/CMA improvements for large systems" from Frank

Lorenzo Stoakes permits userspace to use /proc/pid/pagemap to
determine whether a particular page is a guard page.
- The series "mm, swap: remove swap slot cache" from Kairui Song
removes the swap slot cache from the allocation path - it simply
wasn't being effective.
- The series "mm: cleanups for device-exclusive entries (hmm)" from
David Hildenbrand implements a number of unrelated cleanups in this
code.
- The series "mm: Rework generic PTDUMP configs" from Anshuman Khandual
implements a number of preparatoty cleanups to the GENERIC_PTDUMP
Kconfig logic.
- The series "mm/damon: auto-tune aggregation interval" from SeongJae
Park implements a feedback-driven automatic tuning feature for
DAMON's aggregation interval tuning.
- The series "Fix lazy mmu mode" from Ryan Roberts fixes some issues in
powerpc, sparc and x86 lazy MMU implementations. Ryan did this in
preparation for implementing lazy mmu mode for arm64 to optimize
vmalloc.
- The series "mm/page_alloc: Some clarifications for migratetype
fallback" from Brendan Jackman reworks some commentary to make the
code easier to follow.

reduce boot time by tuning the parallalization of huge page
initialization.
- The series "Fix calculations in trace_balance_dirty_pages() for cgwb"
from Tang Yizhou fixes the tracing output from the dirty page
balancing code.
- The series "mm/damon: make allow filters after reject filters useful

updates zswap to the new object read/write APIs and thus permits the
removal of some legacy code from zpool and zsmalloc.
- The series "Some trivial cleanups for shmem" from Baolin Wang does as

Let's free up some space on 32bit in page[1] by moving the _pincount to
page[2].
For order-1 folios (never anon folios!) on 32bit, we will now also use the
GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS approach. A fully-mapped order-1 folio requires 2
references. With GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS being 1024, we'd detect such
folios as "maybe pinned" with 512 full mappings, instead of 1024 for
order-0. As anon folios are out of the picture (which are the most
relevant users of checking for pinnings on *mapped* pages) and we are
talking about 32bit, this is not expected to cause any trouble.
In __dump_page(), copy one additional folio page if we detect a folio with
an order > 1, so we can dump the pincount on order > 1 folios reliably.
Note that THPs on 32bit are not particularly common (and we don't care too
much about performance), but we want to keep it working reliably, because
likely we want to use large folios there as well in the future,
independent of PMD leaf support.
Once we dynamically allocate "struct folio", fortunately the 32bit
specifics will likely go away again; even small folios could then have a
pincount and folio_has_pincount() would essentially always return "true".

Currently fs dax pages are considered free when the refcount drops to one
and their refcounts are not increased when mapped via PTEs or decreased
when unmapped. This requires special logic in mm paths to detect that
these pages should not be properly refcounted, and to detect when the
refcount drops to one instead of zero.
On the other hand get_user_pages(), etc. will properly refcount fs dax
pages by taking a reference and dropping it when the page is unpinned.
Tracking this special behaviour requires extra PTE bits (eg. pte_devmap)
and introduces rules that are potentially confusing and specific to FS DAX
pages. To fix this, and to possibly allow removal of the special PTE bits
in future, convert the fs dax page refcounts to be zero based and instead
take a reference on the page each time it is mapped as is currently the
case for normal pages.
This may also allow a future clean-up to remove the pgmap refcounting that
is currently done in mm/gup.c.

Historiaclly the code relied on access_ok() to validate the address range.
Commit 26f4c328079d7 added an explicit wrap check before access_ok().
Commit c28b1fc70390d then changed the wrap test to use check_add_overflow().
Commit 6014bc27561f2 relaxed the checks in x86-64's access_ok() and added
an explicit check for TASK_SIZE here to make up for it.
That left a pointless access_ok() call with its associated 'lfence' that
can never actually fail.
So just delete the test.

Patch series "mm: fixes for device-exclusive entries (hmm)", v2.
Discussing the PageTail() call in make_device_exclusive_range() with
Willy, I recently discovered [1] that device-exclusive handling does not
properly work with THP, making the hmm-tests selftests fail if THPs are
enabled on the system.
Looking into more details, I found that hugetlb is not properly fenced,
and I realized that something that was bugging me for longer -- how
device-exclusive entries interact with mapcounts -- completely breaks
migration/swapout/split/hwpoison handling of these folios while they have
device-exclusive PTEs.
The program below can be used to allocate 1 GiB worth of pages and making
them device-exclusive on a kernel with CONFIG_TEST_HMM.
Once they are device-exclusive, these folios cannot get swapped out
(proc$pid/smaps_rollup will always indicate 1 GiB RSS no matter how much
one forces memory reclaim), and when having a memory block onlined to
ZONE_MOVABLE, trying to offline it will loop forever and complain about
failed migration of a page that should be movable.
# echo offline > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory136/state
# echo online_movable > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory136/state
# ./hmm-swap &
... wait until everything is device-exclusive
# echo offline > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory136/state

This series fixes all issues I found so far. There is no easy way to fix
without a bigger rework/cleanup. I have a bunch of cleanups on top (some
previous sent, some the result of the discussion in v1) that I will send
out separately once this landed and I get to it.
I wish we could just use some special present PROT_NONE PTEs instead of
these (non-present, non-none) fake-swap entries; but that just results in
the same problem we keep having (lack of spare PTE bits), and staring at
other similar fake-swap entries, that ship has sailed.
With this series, make_device_exclusive() doesn't actually belong into
mm/rmap.c anymore, but I'll leave moving that for another day.
I only tested this series with the hmm-tests selftests due to lack of HW,
so I'd appreciate some testing, especially if the interaction between two
GPUs wanting a device-exclusive entry works as expected.

This patch (of 17):
We only have two FOLL_SPLIT_PMD users. While uprobe refuses hugetlb
early, make_device_exclusive_range() can end up getting called on hugetlb
VMAs.
Right now, this means that with a PMD-sized hugetlb page, we can end up
calling split_huge_pmd(), because pmd_trans_huge() also succeeds with
hugetlb PMDs.
For example, using a modified hmm-test selftest one can trigger:

Before commit 9cb28da54643 ("mm/gup: handle hugetlb in the generic
follow_page_mask code"), we would have ignored the flag; instead, let's
simply refuse the combination completely in check_vma_flags(): the caller
is likely not prepared to handle any hugetlb folios.
We'll teach make_device_exclusive_range() separately to ignore any hugetlb
folios as a future-proof safety net.

char *mem = mmap(NULL, 1ULL << 40, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_NORESERVE | MAP_PRIVATE, -1, 0);
printf("%p %m\n", mem);
if (mem != MAP_FAILED) {
mem[0] = 1;
}
abort();
}
That's 1TB of almost completely not-populated area.
On my test box it takes 13-14 seconds to dump.
The profile shows:
- 99.89% 0.00% a.out
entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe
do_syscall_64
syscall_exit_to_user_mode
arch_do_signal_or_restart
- get_signal
- 99.89% do_coredump
- 99.88% elf_core_dump
- dump_user_range
- 98.12% get_dump_page
- 64.19% __get_user_pages
- 40.92% gup_vma_lookup
- find_vma
- mt_find
4.21% __rcu_read_lock
1.33% __rcu_read_unlock
- 3.14% check_vma_flags
0.68% vma_is_secretmem
0.61% __cond_resched
0.60% vma_pgtable_walk_end
0.59% vma_pgtable_walk_begin
0.58% no_page_table
- 15.13% down_read_killable
0.69% __cond_resched
13.84% up_read
0.58% __cond_resched
Almost 29% of the time is spent relocking the mmap semaphore between
calls to get_dump_page() which find nothing.
Whacking that results in times of 10 seconds (down from 13-14).
While here make the thing killable.
The real problem is the page-sized iteration and the real fix would
patch it up instead. It is left as an exercise for the mm-familiar
reader.

We can run into an infinite loop in __get_longterm_locked() when
collect_longterm_unpinnable_folios() finds only folios that are isolated
from the LRU or were never added to the LRU. This can happen when all
folios to be pinned are never added to the LRU, for example when
vm_ops->fault allocated pages using cma_alloc() and never added them to
the LRU.
Fix it by simply taking a look at the list in the single caller, to see if
anything was added.

Eric reported that PTRACE_POKETEXT fails when applications use hugetlb for
mapping text using huge pages. Before commit 1d8d14641fd9 ("mm/hugetlb:
support write-faults in shared mappings"), PTRACE_POKETEXT worked by
accident, but it was buggy and silently ended up mapping pages writable
into the page tables even though VM_WRITE was not set.
In general, FOLL_FORCE|FOLL_WRITE does currently not work with hugetlb.
Let's implement FOLL_FORCE|FOLL_WRITE properly for hugetlb, such that what
used to work in the past by accident now properly works, allowing
applications using hugetlb for text etc. to get properly debugged.
This change might also be required to implement uprobes support for
hugetlb [1].

The recent addition of "pofs" (pages or folios) handling to gup has a
flaw: it assumes that unpin_user_pages() handles NULL pages in the pages**
array. That's not the case, as I discovered when I ran on a new
configuration on my test machine.
Fix this by skipping NULL pages in unpin_user_pages(), just like
unpin_folios() already does.
Details: when booting on x86 with "numa=fake=2 movablecore=4G" on Linux
6.12, and running this:
tools/testing/selftests/mm/gup_longterm

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jgg/iommufd
Pull iommufd updates from Jason Gunthorpe:
"Several new features and uAPI for iommufd:
- IOMMU_IOAS_MAP_FILE allows passing in a file descriptor as the
backing memory for an iommu mapping. To date VFIO/iommufd have used
VMA's and pin_user_pages(), this now allows using memfds and
memfd_pin_folios(). Notably this creates a pure folio path from the
memfd to the iommu page table where memory is never broken down to
PAGE_SIZE.
- IOMMU_IOAS_CHANGE_PROCESS moves the pinned page accounting between
two processes. Combined with the above this allows iommufd to
support a VMM re-start using exec() where something like qemu would
exec() a new version of itself and fd pass the memfds/iommufd/etc
to the new process. The memfd allows DMA access to the memory to
continue while the new process is getting setup, and the
CHANGE_PROCESS updates all the accounting.
- Support for fault reporting to userspace on non-PRI HW, such as ARM
stall-mode embedded devices.
- IOMMU_VIOMMU_ALLOC introduces the concept of a HW/driver backed
virtual iommu. This will be used by VMMs to access hardware
features that are contained with in a VM. The first use is to
inform the kernel of the virtual SID to physical SID mapping when
issuing SID based invalidation on ARM. Further uses will tie HW
features that are directly accessed by the VM, such as invalidation
queue assignment and others.
- IOMMU_VDEVICE_ALLOC informs the kernel about the mapping of virtual
device to physical device within a VIOMMU. Minimially this is used
to translate VM issued cache invalidation commands from virtual to
physical device IDs.
- Enhancements to IOMMU_HWPT_INVALIDATE and IOMMU_HWPT_ALLOC to work
with the VIOMMU
- ARM SMMuv3 support for nested translation. Using the VIOMMU and
VDEVICE the driver can model this HW's behavior for nested
translation. This includes a shared branch from Will"

commit 53ba78de064b ("mm/gup: introduce
check_and_migrate_movable_folios()") created a new constraint on the
pin_user_pages*() API family: a potentially large internal allocation must
now occur, for FOLL_LONGTERM cases.
A user-visible consequence has now appeared: user space can no longer pin
more than 2GB of memory anymore on x86_64. That's because, on a 4KB
PAGE_SIZE system, when user space tries to (indirectly, via a device
driver that calls pin_user_pages()) pin 2GB, this requires an allocation
of a folio pointers array of MAX_PAGE_ORDER size, which is the limit for
kmalloc().
In addition to the directly visible effect described above, there is also
the problem of adding an unnecessary allocation. The **pages array
argument has already been allocated, and there is no need for a redundant
**folios array allocation in this case.
Fix this by avoiding the new allocation entirely. This is done by
referring to either the original page[i] within **pages, or to the
associated folio. Thanks to David Hildenbrand for suggesting this
approach and for providing the initial implementation (which I've tested
and adjusted slightly) as well.

We already have the folio here, so just use it, removing three hidden
calls to compound_head().

If a driver tries to call any of the pin_user_pages*(FOLL_LONGTERM) family
of functions, and requests "too many" pages, then the call will
erroneously leave pages pinned. This is visible in user space as an
actual memory leak.
Repro is trivial: just make enough pin_user_pages(FOLL_LONGTERM) calls to
exhaust memory.
The root cause of the problem is this sequence, within
__gup_longterm_locked():
__get_user_pages_locked()
rc = check_and_migrate_movable_pages()
...which gets retried in a loop. The loop error handling is incomplete,
clearly due to a somewhat unusual and complicated tri-state error API.
But anyway, if -ENOMEM, or in fact, any unexpected error is returned from
check_and_migrate_movable_pages(), then __gup_longterm_locked() happily
returns the error, while leaving the pages pinned.
In the failed case, which is an app that requests (via a device driver)
30720000000 bytes to be pinned, and then exits, I see this:
$ grep foll /proc/vmstat
nr_foll_pin_acquired 7502048
nr_foll_pin_released 2048
And after applying this patch, it returns to balanced pins:
$ grep foll /proc/vmstat
nr_foll_pin_acquired 7502048
nr_foll_pin_released 7502048
Note that the child routine, check_and_migrate_movable_folios(), avoids
this problem, by unpinning any folios in the **folios argument, before
returning an error.
Fix this by making check_and_migrate_movable_pages() behave in exactly the
same way as check_and_migrate_movable_folios(): unpin all pages in
**pages, before returning an error.
Also, documentation was an aggravating factor, so:
1) Consolidate the documentation for these two routines, now that they
have identical external behavior.
2) Rewrite the consolidated documentation:
a) Clearly list the three return code cases, and what happens in
each case.
b) Mention that one of the cases unpins the pages or folios, before
returning an error code.

Export a function that adds pins to an already-pinned huge-page folio.
This allows any range of small pages within the folio to be unpinned later.
For example, pages pinned via memfd_pin_folios and modified by
folio_add_pins could be unpinned via unpin_user_page(s).

The folio_try_get in memfd_alloc_folio is not necessary. Delete it, and
delete the matching folio_put in memfd_pin_folios. This also avoids
leaking a ref if the memfd_alloc_folio call to hugetlb_add_to_page_cache
fails. That error path is also broken in a second way -- when its
folio_put causes the ref to become 0, it will implicitly call
free_huge_folio, but then the path *explicitly* calls free_huge_folio.
Delete the latter.
This is a continuation of the fix
"mm/hugetlb: fix memfd_pin_folios free_huge_pages leak"

If memfd_pin_folios tries to create a hugetlb page, but someone else
already did, then folio gets the value -EEXIST here:
folio = memfd_alloc_folio(memfd, start_idx);
if (IS_ERR(folio)) {
ret = PTR_ERR(folio);
if (ret != -EEXIST)
goto err;
then on the next trip through the "while start_idx" loop we panic here:
if (folio) {
folio_put(folio);
To fix, set the folio to NULL on error.
