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.

Allow waiting for the VMA write lock to be interrupted by fatal signals.
The explicit check for fatal_signal_pending() can be removed as it is
checked during vma_start_write_killable(). Improves the latency of
killing the task as we do not wait for the reader to finish before
checking for signals.

mm_get_unmapped_area() is a wrapper around arch_get_unmapped_area() /
arch_get_unmapped_area_topdown(), both of which search current->mm for
some free space. Neither take an mm_struct - they implicitly operate on
current->mm.
But the wrapper takes an mm_struct and uses it to decide whether to search
bottom up or top down. All callers pass in current->mm for this, so
everything is working consistently. But it feels like an accident waiting
to happen; eventually someone will call that function with a different mm,
expecting to find free space in it, but what gets returned is free space
in the current mm.
So let's simplify by removing the parameter and have the wrapper use
current->mm to decide which end to start at. Now everything is consistent
and self-documenting.

Patch series "mm: do not assume file == vma->vm_file in
compat_vma_mmap_prepare()", v2.
As part of the efforts to eliminate the problematic f_op->mmap callback, a
new callback - f_op->mmap_prepare was provided.
While we are converting these callbacks, we must deal with 'stacked'
filesystems and drivers - those which in their own f_op->mmap callback
invoke an inner f_op->mmap callback.
To accomodate for this, a compatibility layer is provided that, via
vfs_mmap(), detects if f_op->mmap_prepare is provided and if so, generates
a vm_area_desc containing the VMA's metadata and invokes the call.
So far, we have provided desc->file equal to vma->vm_file. However this
is not necessarily valid, especially in the case of stacked drivers which
wish to assign a new file after the inner hook is invoked.
To account for this, we adjust vm_area_desc to have both file and vm_file
fields. The .vm_file field is strictly set to vma->vm_file (or in the
case of a new mapping, what will become vma->vm_file).
However, .file is set to whichever file vfs_mmap() is invoked with when
using the compatibilty layer.
Therefore, if the VMA's file needs to be updated in .mmap_prepare,
desc->vm_file should be assigned, whilst desc->file should be read.
No current f_op->mmap_prepare users assign desc->file so this is safe to
do.
This makes the .mmap_prepare callback in the context of a stacked
filesystem or driver completely consistent with the existing .mmap
implementations.
While we're here, we do a few small cleanups, and ensure that we const-ify
things correctly in the vm_area_desc struct to avoid hooks accidentally
trying to assign fields they should not.
This patch (of 2):
Stacked filesystems and drivers may invoke mmap hooks with a struct file
pointer that differs from the overlying file. We will make this
functionality possible in a subsequent patch.
In order to prepare for this, let's update vm_area_struct to separately
provide desc->file and desc->vm_file parameters.
The desc->file parameter is the file that the hook is expected to operate
upon, and is not assignable (though the hok may wish to e.g. update the
file's accessed time for instance).
The desc->vm_file defaults to what will become vma->vm_file and is what
the hook must reassign should it wish to change the VMA"s vma->vm_file.
For now we keep desc->file, vm_file the same to remain consistent.
No f_op->mmap_prepare() callback sets a new vma->vm_file currently, so
this is safe to change.
While we're here, make the mm_struct desc->mm pointers at immutable as
well as the desc->mm field itself.
As part of this change, also update the single hook which this would
otherwise break - mlock_future_ok(), invoked by secretmem_mmap_prepare()).
We additionally update set_vma_from_desc() to compare fields in a more
logical fashion, checking the (possibly) user-modified fields as the first
operand against the existing value as the second one.
Additionally, update VMA tests to accommodate changes.

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.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm
Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
"As usual, many cleanups. The below blurbiage describes 42 patchsets.
21 of those are partially or fully cleanup work. "cleans up",
"cleanup", "maintainability", "rationalizes", etc.
I never knew the MM code was so dirty.
"mm: ksm: prevent KSM from breaking merging of new VMAs" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
addresses an issue with KSM's PR_SET_MEMORY_MERGE mode: newly
mapped VMAs were not eligible for merging with existing adjacent
VMAs.
"mm/damon: introduce DAMON_STAT for simple and practical access monitoring" (SeongJae Park)
adds a new kernel module which simplifies the setup and usage of
DAMON in production environments.
"stop passing a writeback_control to swap/shmem writeout" (Christoph Hellwig)
is a cleanup to the writeback code which removes a couple of
pointers from struct writeback_control.
"drivers/base/node.c: optimization and cleanups" (Donet Tom)
contains largely uncorrelated cleanups to the NUMA node setup and
management code.
"mm: userfaultfd: assorted fixes and cleanups" (Tal Zussman)
does some maintenance work on the userfaultfd code.
"Readahead tweaks for larger folios" (Ryan Roberts)
implements some tuneups for pagecache readahead when it is reading
into order>0 folios.
"selftests/mm: Tweaks to the cow test" (Mark Brown)
provides some cleanups and consistency improvements to the
selftests code.
"Optimize mremap() for large folios" (Dev Jain)
does that. A 37% reduction in execution time was measured in a
memset+mremap+munmap microbenchmark.
"Remove zero_user()" (Matthew Wilcox)
expunges zero_user() in favor of the more modern memzero_page().
"mm/huge_memory: vmf_insert_folio_*() and vmf_insert_pfn_pud() fixes" (David Hildenbrand)
addresses some warts which David noticed in the huge page code.
These were not known to be causing any issues at this time.
"mm/damon: use alloc_migrate_target() for DAMOS_MIGRATE_{HOT,COLD" (SeongJae Park)
provides some cleanup and consolidation work in DAMON.
"use vm_flags_t consistently" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
uses vm_flags_t in places where we were inappropriately using other
types.
"mm/memfd: Reserve hugetlb folios before allocation" (Vivek Kasireddy)
increases the reliability of large page allocation in the memfd
code.
"mm: Remove pXX_devmap page table bit and pfn_t type" (Alistair Popple)
removes several now-unneeded PFN_* flags.
"mm/damon: decouple sysfs from core" (SeongJae Park)
implememnts some cleanup and maintainability work in the DAMON
sysfs layer.
"madvise cleanup" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
does quite a lot of cleanup/maintenance work in the madvise() code.
"madvise anon_name cleanups" (Vlastimil Babka)
provides additional cleanups on top or Lorenzo's effort.
"Implement numa node notifier" (Oscar Salvador)
creates a standalone notifier for NUMA node memory state changes.
Previously these were lumped under the more general memory
on/offline notifier.
"Make MIGRATE_ISOLATE a standalone bit" (Zi Yan)
cleans up the pageblock isolation code and fixes a potential issue
which doesn't seem to cause any problems in practice.
"selftests/damon: add python and drgn based DAMON sysfs functionality tests" (SeongJae Park)
adds additional drgn- and python-based DAMON selftests which are
more comprehensive than the existing selftest suite.
"Misc rework on hugetlb faulting path" (Oscar Salvador)
fixes a rather obscure deadlock in the hugetlb fault code and
follows that fix with a series of cleanups.
"cma: factor out allocation logic from __cma_declare_contiguous_nid" (Mike Rapoport)
rationalizes and cleans up the highmem-specific code in the CMA
allocator.
"mm/migration: rework movable_ops page migration (part 1)" (David Hildenbrand)
provides cleanups and future-preparedness to the migration code.
"mm/damon: add trace events for auto-tuned monitoring intervals and DAMOS quota" (SeongJae Park)
adds some tracepoints to some DAMON auto-tuning code.
"mm/damon: fix misc bugs in DAMON modules" (SeongJae Park)
does that.
"mm/damon: misc cleanups" (SeongJae Park)
also does what it claims.
"mm: folio_pte_batch() improvements" (David Hildenbrand)
cleans up the large folio PTE batching code.
"mm/damon/vaddr: Allow interleaving in migrate_{hot,cold} actions" (SeongJae Park)
facilitates dynamic alteration of DAMON's inter-node allocation
policy.
"Remove unmap_and_put_page()" (Vishal Moola)
provides a couple of page->folio conversions.
"mm: per-node proactive reclaim" (Davidlohr Bueso)
implements a per-node control of proactive reclaim - beyond the
current memcg-based implementation.
"mm/damon: remove damon_callback" (SeongJae Park)
replaces the damon_callback interface with a more general and
powerful damon_call()+damos_walk() interface.
"mm/mremap: permit mremap() move of multiple VMAs" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
implements a number of mremap cleanups (of course) in preparation
for adding new mremap() functionality: newly permit the remapping
of multiple VMAs when the user is specifying MREMAP_FIXED. It still
excludes some specialized situations where this cannot be performed
reliably.
"drop hugetlb_free_pgd_range()" (Anthony Yznaga)
switches some sparc hugetlb code over to the generic version and
removes the thus-unneeded hugetlb_free_pgd_range().
"mm/damon/sysfs: support periodic and automated stats update" (SeongJae Park)
augments the present userspace-requested update of DAMON sysfs
monitoring files. Automatic update is now provided, along with a
tunable to control the update interval.
"Some randome fixes and cleanups to swapfile" (Kemeng Shi)
does what is claims.
"mm: introduce snapshot_page" (Luiz Capitulino and David Hildenbrand)
provides (and uses) a means by which debug-style functions can grab
a copy of a pageframe and inspect it locklessly without tripping
over the races inherent in operating on the live pageframe
directly.
"use per-vma locks for /proc/pid/maps reads" (Suren Baghdasaryan)
addresses the large contention issues which can be triggered by
reads from that procfs file. Latencies are reduced by more than
half in some situations. The series also introduces several new
selftests for the /proc/pid/maps interface.
"__folio_split() clean up" (Zi Yan)
cleans up __folio_split()!
"Optimize mprotect() for large folios" (Dev Jain)
provides some quite large (>3x) speedups to mprotect() when dealing
with large folios.
"selftests/mm: reuse FORCE_READ to replace "asm volatile("" : "+r" (XXX));" and some cleanup" (wang lian)
does some cleanup work in the selftests code.
"tools/testing: expand mremap testing" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
extends the mremap() selftest in several ways, including adding
more checking of Lorenzo's recently added "permit mremap() move of
multiple VMAs" feature.
"selftests/damon/sysfs.py: test all parameters" (SeongJae Park)
extends the DAMON sysfs interface selftest so that it tests all
possible user-requested parameters. Rather than the present minimal
subset"

Set min_brk to mm->start_brk by default, and override it with mm->end_data
only when CONFIG_COMPAT_BRK is enabled and brk_randomized is false.
This makes the logic clearer with no functional change.

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.

f_op->mmap_prepare().
Additionally, commit bb666b7c2707 ("mm: add mmap_prepare() compatibility
layer for nested file systems") permits the use of the .mmap_prepare() hook
even in nested filesystems like overlayfs.
There are a number of places where we check only for f_op->mmap - this is
incorrect now mmap_prepare exists, so update all of these to use the
general helper can_mmap_file().
Most notably, this updates the elf logic to allow for the ability to
execute binaries on filesystems which have the .mmap_prepare hook, but
additionally we update nested filesystems.

Let's use our new interface. In remap_pfn_range(), we'll now decide
whether we have to track (full VMA covered) or only lookup the cachemode
(partial VMA covered).
Remember what we have to untrack by linking it from the VMA. When
duplicating VMAs (e.g., splitting, mremap, fork), we'll handle it similar
to anon VMA names, and use a kref to share the tracking.
Once the last VMA un-refs our tracking data, we'll do the untracking,
which simplifies things a lot and should sort our various issues we saw
recently, for example, when partially unmapping/zapping a tracked VMA.
This change implies that we'll keep tracking the original PFN range even
after splitting + partially unmapping it: not too bad, because it was not
working reliably before. The only thing that kind-of worked before was
shrinking such a mapping using mremap(): we managed to adjust the
reservation in a hacky way, now we won't adjust the reservation but leave
it around until all involved VMAs are gone.
If that ever turns out to be an issue, we could hook into VM splitting
code and split the tracking; however, that adds complexity that might not
be required, so we'll keep it simple for now.

Patch series "eliminate mmap() retry merge, add .mmap_prepare hook", v2.
During the mmap() of a file-backed mapping, we invoke the underlying
driver file's mmap() callback in order to perform driver/file system
initialisation of the underlying VMA.
This has been a source of issues in the past, including a significant
security concern relating to unwinding of error state discovered by Jann
Horn, as fixed in commit 5de195060b2e ("mm: resolve faulty mmap_region()
error path behaviour") which performed the recent, significant, rework of
mmap() as a whole.
However, we have had a fly in the ointment remain - drivers have a great
deal of freedom in the .mmap() hook to manipulate VMA state (as well as
page table state).
This can be problematic, as we can no longer reason sensibly about VMA
state once the call is complete (the ability to do - anything - here does
rather interfere with that).
In addition, callers may choose to do odd or unusual things which might
interfere with subsequent steps in the mmap() process, and it may do so
and then raise an error, requiring very careful unwinding of state about
which we can make no assumptions.
Rather than providing such an open-ended interface, this series provides
an alternative, far more restrictive one - we expose a whitelist of fields
which can be adjusted by the driver, along with immutable state upon which
the driver can make such decisions:
struct vm_area_desc {
/* Immutable state. */
struct mm_struct *mm;
unsigned long start;
unsigned long end;
/* Mutable fields. Populated with initial state. */
pgoff_t pgoff;
struct file *file;
vm_flags_t vm_flags;
pgprot_t page_prot;
/* Write-only fields. */
const struct vm_operations_struct *vm_ops;
void *private_data;
};
The mmap logic then updates the state used to either merge with a VMA or
establish a new VMA based upon this logic.
This is achieved via new file hook .mmap_prepare(), which is, importantly,
invoked very early on in the mmap() process.
If an error arises, we can very simply abort the operation with very
little unwinding of state required.
The existing logic contains another, related, peccadillo - since the
.mmap() callback might do anything, it may also cause a previously
unmergeable VMA to become mergeable with adjacent VMAs.
Right now the logic will retry a merge like this only if the driver
changes VMA flags, and changes them in such a way that a merge might
succeed (that is, the flags are not 'special', that is do not contain any
of the flags specified in VM_SPECIAL).
This has also been the source of a great deal of pain - it's hard to
reason about an .mmap() callback that might do - anything - but it's also
hard to reason about setting up a VMA and writing to the maple tree, only
to do it again utilising a great deal of shared state.
Since .mmap_prepare() sets fields before the first merge is even
attempted, the use of this callback obviates the need for this retry merge
logic.
A driver may only specify .mmap_prepare() or the deprecated .mmap()
callback. In future we may add futher callbacks beyond .mmap_prepare() to
faciliate all use cass as we convert drivers.
In researching this change, I examined every .mmap() callback, and
discovered only a very few that set VMA state in such a way that a. the
VMA flags changed and b. this would be mergeable.
In the majority of cases, it turns out that drivers are mapping kernel
memory and thus ultimately set VM_PFNMAP, VM_MIXEDMAP, or other
unmergeable VM_SPECIAL flags.
Of those that remain I identified a number of cases which are only
applicable in DAX, setting the VM_HUGEPAGE flag:
* dax_mmap()
* erofs_file_mmap()
* ext4_file_mmap()
* xfs_file_mmap()
For this remerge to not occur and to impact users, each of these cases
would require a user to mmap() files using DAX, in parts, immediately
adjacent to one another.
This is a very unlikely usecase and so it does not appear to be worthwhile
to adjust this functionality accordingly.
We can, however, very quickly do so if needed by simply adding an
.mmap_prepare() callback to these as required.
There are two further non-DAX cases I idenitfied:
* orangefs_file_mmap() - Clears VM_RAND_READ if set, replacing with
VM_SEQ_READ.
* usb_stream_hwdep_mmap() - Sets VM_DONTDUMP.
Both of these cases again seem very unlikely to be mmap()'d immediately
adjacent to one another in a fashion that would result in a merge.
Finally, we are left with a viable case:
* secretmem_mmap() - Set VM_LOCKED, VM_DONTDUMP.
This is viable enough that the mm selftests trigger the logic as a matter
of course. Therefore, this series replace the .secretmem_mmap() hook with
.secret_mmap_prepare().
This patch (of 3):
Provide a means by which drivers can specify which fields of those
permitted to be changed should be altered to prior to mmap()'ing a range
(which may either result from a merge or from mapping an entirely new
VMA).
Doing so is substantially safer than the existing .mmap() calback which
provides unrestricted access to the part-constructed VMA and permits
drivers and file systems to do 'creative' things which makes it hard to
reason about the state of the VMA after the function returns.
The existing .mmap() callback's freedom has caused a great deal of issues,
especially in error handling, as unwinding the mmap() state has proven to
be non-trivial and caused significant issues in the past, for instance
those addressed in commit 5de195060b2e ("mm: resolve faulty mmap_region()
error path behaviour").
It also necessitates a second attempt at merge once the .mmap() callback
has completed, which has caused issues in the past, is awkward, adds
overhead and is difficult to reason about.
The .mmap_prepare() callback eliminates this requirement, as we can update
fields prior to even attempting the first merge. It is safer, as we
heavily restrict what can actually be modified, and being invoked very
early in the mmap() process, error handling can be performed safely with
very little unwinding of state required.
The .mmap_prepare() and deprecated .mmap() callbacks are mutually
exclusive, so we permit only one to be invoked at a time.
Update vma userland test stubs to account for changes.

Right now these are performed in kernel/fork.c which is odd and a
violation of separation of concerns, as well as preventing us from
integrating this and related logic into userland VMA testing going
forward.
There is a fly in the ointment - nommu - mmap.c is not compiled if
CONFIG_MMU not set, and neither is vma.c.
To square the circle, let's add a new file - vma_init.c. This will be
compiled for both CONFIG_MMU and nommu builds, and will also form part of
the VMA userland testing.
This allows us to de-duplicate code, while maintaining separation of
concerns and the ability for us to userland test this logic.
Update the VMA userland tests accordingly, additionally adding a
detach_free_vma() helper function to correctly detach VMAs before freeing
them in test code, as this change was triggering the assert for this.

This is a key step in our being able to abstract and isolate VMA
allocation and destruction logic.
This function is the last one where vm_area_free() and vm_area_dup() are
directly referenced outside of mmap, so having this in mm allows us to
isolate these.
We do the same for the nommu version which is substantially simpler.
We place the declaration for dup_mmap() in mm/internal.h and have
kernel/fork.c import this in order to prevent improper use of this
functionality elsewhere in the kernel.
While we're here, we remove the useless #ifdef CONFIG_MMU check around
mmap_read_lock_maybe_expand() in mmap.c, mmap.c is compiled only if
CONFIG_MMU is set.

There are peculiarities within the kernel where what is very clearly mm
code is performed elsewhere arbitrarily.
This violates separation of concerns and makes it harder to refactor code
to make changes to how fundamental initialisation and operation of mm
logic is performed.
One such case is the creation of the VMA containing the initial stack upon
execve()'ing a new process. This is currently performed in
__bprm_mm_init() in fs/exec.c.
Abstract this operation to create_init_stack_vma(). This allows us to
limit use of vma allocation and free code to fork and mm only.
We previously did the same for the step at which we relocate the initial
stack VMA downwards via relocate_vma_down(), now we move the initial VMA
establishment too.
Take the opportunity to also move insert_vm_struct() to mm/vma.c as it's
no longer needed anywhere outside of mm.

Patch series "move all VMA allocation, freeing and duplication logic to
mm", v3.
Currently VMA allocation, freeing and duplication exist in kernel/fork.c,
which is a violation of separation of concerns, and leaves these functions
exposed to the rest of the kernel when they are in fact internal
implementation details.
Resolve this by moving this logic to mm, and making it internal to vma.c,
vma.h.
This also allows us, in future, to provide userland testing around this
functionality.
We additionally abstract dup_mmap() to mm, being careful to ensure
kernel/fork.c acceses this via the mm internal header so it is not exposed
elsewhere in the kernel.
As part of this change, also abstract initial stack allocation performed
in __bprm_mm_init() out of fs code into mm via the
create_init_stack_vma(), as this code uses vm_area_alloc() and
vm_area_free().
In order to do so sensibly, we introduce a new mm/vma_exec.c file, which
contains the code that is shared by mm and exec. This file is added to
both memory mapping and exec sections in MAINTAINERS so both sets of
maintainers can maintain oversight.
As part of this change, we also move relocate_vma_down() to mm/vma_exec.c
so all shared mm/exec functionality is kept in one place.
We add code shared between nommu and mmu-enabled configurations in order
to share VMA allocation, freeing and duplication code correctly while also
keeping these functions available in userland VMA testing.
This is achieved by adding a mm/vma_init.c file which is also compiled by
the userland tests.
This patch (of 4):
There is functionality that overlaps the exec and memory mapping
subsystems. While it properly belongs in mm, it is important that exec
maintainers maintain oversight of this functionality correctly.
We can establish both goals by adding a new mm/vma_exec.c file which
contains these 'glue' functions, and have fs/exec.c import them.
As a part of this change, to ensure that proper oversight is achieved, add
the file to both the MEMORY MAPPING and EXEC & BINFMT API, ELF sections.
scripts/get_maintainer.pl can correctly handle files in multiple entries
and this neatly handles the cross-over.

A lot of state is threaded throughout the page table moving logic within
the mremap code, including boolean values which control behaviour
specifically in regard to whether rmap locks need be held over the
operation and whether the VMA belongs to a temporary stack being moved by
move_arg_pages() (and consequently, relocate_vma_down()).
As we already transmit state throughout this operation, it is neater and
more readable to maintain a small state object. We do so in the form of
pagetable_move_control.
In addition, this allows us to update parameters within the state as we
manipulate things, for instance with regard to the page table realignment
logic.
In future I want to add additional functionality to the page table logic,
so this is an additional motivation for making it easier to do so.
This patch changes move_page_tables() to accept a pointer to a
pagetable_move_control struct, and performs changes at this level only.
Further page table logic will be updated in a subsequent patch.
We additionally also take the opportunity to add significant comments
describing the address realignment logic to make it abundantly clear what
is going on in this code.

To enable SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU for vma cache we need to ensure that
object reuse before RCU grace period is over will be detected by
lock_vma_under_rcu().
Current checks are sufficient as long as vma is detached before it is
freed. The only place this is not currently happening is in exit_mmap().
Add the missing vma_mark_detached() in exit_mmap().
Another issue which might trick lock_vma_under_rcu() during vma reuse is
vm_area_dup(), which copies the entire content of the vma into a new one,
overriding new vma's vm_refcnt and temporarily making it appear as
attached. This might trick a racing lock_vma_under_rcu() to operate on a
reused vma if it found the vma before it got reused. To prevent this
situation, we should ensure that vm_refcnt stays at detached state (0)
when it is copied and advances to attached state only after it is added
into the vma tree. Introduce vm_area_init_from() which preserves new
vma's vm_refcnt and use it in vm_area_dup(). Since all vmas are in
detached state with no current readers when they are freed,
lock_vma_under_rcu() will not be able to take vm_refcnt after vma got
detached even if vma is reused. vma_mark_attached() in modified to
include a release fence to ensure all stores to the vma happen before
vm_refcnt gets initialized.
Finally, make vm_area_cachep SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU. This will facilitate
vm_area_struct reuse and will minimize the number of call_rcu() calls.

Patch series "mm: further simplify VMA merge operation", v3.
While significant efforts have been made to improve the VMA merge
operation, there remains remnants of the bad (or rather confusing) old
days, which make the code difficult to understand, more bug prone and thus
harder to modify.
This series attempts to significantly improve matters in a number of
respects - with a focus on simplifying the commit_merge() function which
actually actions the merge operation - and importantly, adjusting the two
most confusing merge cases - those in which we 'adjust' the VMA
immediately adjacent to the one being merged.
One source of confusion are the VMAs being threaded through the operation
themselves - vmg->prev, vmg->vma and vmg->next.
At the start of the operation, vmg->vma is either NULL if a new VMA is
propose to be added, or if not then a pointer to an existing VMA being
modified, and prev/next are (perhaps not present) VMAs sat immediately
before and after the range specified in vmg->start, end, respectively.
However, during the VMA merge operation, we change vmg->start, end and
pgoff to span the newly merged range and vmg->vma to either be:
a. The ultimately returned VMA (in most cases) or b. A VMA which we will
manipulate, but ultimately instead return vmg->next.
Case b. especially here is confusing for somebody reading this code, but
the fact we update this state, along with vmg->start, end, pgoff only
makes matters worse.
We simplify things by replacing vmg->vma with vmg->middle and never
changing it - this is always either NULL (for a new VMA) or the VMA being
modified between vmg->prev and vmg->next.
We further simplify by placing the merged VMA in a new vmg->target field -
whether case b. above is the case or not. The reader of the code can now
simply rely on vmg->middle being the middle VMA and vmg->target being the
ultimately merged VMA.
We additionally tackle the confusing cases where we 'adjust' VMAs other
than the one we ultimately return as the merged VMA (this includes case b.
above). These are:
(1)
merge
<----------->
|------||--------| |------------|---|
| prev || middle | -> | target | m |
|------||--------| |------------|---|
In which case middle must be adjusted so middle->vm_start is increased as
well as performing the merge.
(2) (equivalent to case b. above)
<------------->
|---------||------| |---|-------------|
| middle || next | -> | m | target |
|---------||------| |---|-------------|
In which case next must be adjusted so next->vm_start is decreased as well
as performing the merge.
This cases have previously been performed by calculating and passing
around a dubious and confusing 'adj_start' parameter along side a pointer
to an 'adjust' VMA indicating which VMA requires additional adjustment
(middle in case 1 and next in case 2).
With the VMG structure in place we are able to avoid this by simply
setting a merge flag to describe each case:
(1) Sets the vmg->__adjust_middle_start flag
(2) Sets the vmg->__adjust_next_start flag
By doing so it turns out we can vastly simplify the logic and calculate
what is required to perform the operation.
Taken together the refactorings make it far easier to understand what is
being done even in these more confusing cases, make the code far more
maintainable, debuggable, and testable, providing more internal state
indicating what is happening in the merge operation.
The changes have no functional net impact on the merge operation and
everything should still behave as it did before.
This patch (of 5):
The merge code, while much improved, still has a number of points of
confusion. As part of a broader series cleaning this up to make this more
maintainable, we start by addressing some confusion around
vma_merge_struct fields.
So far, the caller either provides no vmg->vma (a new VMA) or supplies the
existing VMA which is being altered, setting vmg->start,end,pgoff to the
proposed VMA dimensions.
vmg->vma is then updated, as are vmg->start,end,pgoff as the merge process
proceeds and the appropriate merge strategy is determined.
This is rather confusing, as vmg->vma starts off as the 'middle' VMA
between vmg->prev,next, but becomes the 'target' VMA, except in one
specific edge case (merge next, shrink middle).
Int his patch we introduce vmg->middle to describe the VMA that is between
vmg->prev and vmg->next, and does NOT change during the merge operation.
We replace vmg->vma with vmg->target, and use this only during the merge
operation itself.
Aside from the merge right, shrink middle case, this becomes the VMA that
forms the basis of the VMA that is returned. This edge case can be
addressed in a future commit.
We also add a number of comments to explain what is going on.
Finally, we adjust the ASCII diagrams showing each merge case in
vma_merge_existing_range() to be clearer - the arrow range previously
showed the vmg->start, end spanned area, but it is clearer to change this
to show the final merged VMA.
This patch has no change in functional behaviour.

Now that we have removed the one user of mmap_region() outside of mm, make
it internal and add it to vma.c so it can be userland tested.
This ensures that all external memory mappings are performed using the
appropriate interfaces and allows us to modify memory mapping logic as we
see fit.
Additionally expand test stubs to allow for the mmap_region() code to
compile and be userland testable.

There seem to be several categories of calls to lru_add_drain and
lru_add_drain_all.
The first are code paths that recently allocated, swapped in, or otherwise
processed a batch of pages, and want them all on the LRU. These drain
pages that were recently allocated, probably on the local CPU.
A second category are code paths that are actively trying to reclaim,
migrate, or offline memory. These often use lru_add_drain_all, to drain
the caches on all CPUs.
However, there also seem to be some other callers where we aren't really
doing either. They are calling lru_add_drain(), despite operating on
pages that may have been allocated long ago, and quite possibly on
different CPUs.
Those calls are not likely to be effective at anything but creating lock
contention on the LRU locks.
Remove the lru_add_drain calls in the latter category.
For detailed reasoning, see [1] and [2].

It isn't always entirely clear to users the difference between do_mmap(),
mmap_region() and vm_mmap(), so add comments to clarify what's going on in
each.
This is compounded by the fact that we actually allow callers external to
mm to invoke both do_mmap() and mmap_region() (!), the latter of which is
really strictly speaking an internal memory mapping implementation detail.

Both of these functions can be invoked outside of mm, so it is probably a
good idea to assert that the required lock is held.
Will only have an impact if CONFIG_DEBUG_VM is set, otherwise this amounts

We no longer actually need to perform these checks in the f_op->mmap()
hook any longer.
We already moved the operation which clears VM_MAYWRITE on a read-only
mapping of a write-sealed memfd in order to work around the restrictions
imposed by commit 5de195060b2e ("mm: resolve faulty mmap_region() error
path behaviour").
There is no reason for us not to simply go ahead and additionally check to
see if any pre-existing seals are in place here rather than defer this to
the f_op->mmap() hook.
By doing this we remove more logic from shmem_mmap() which doesn't belong
there, as well as doing the same for hugetlbfs_file_mmap(). We also
remove dubious shared logic in mm.h which simply does not belong there
either.
It makes sense to do these checks at the earliest opportunity, we know
these are shmem (or hugetlbfs) mappings whose relevant VMA flags will not
change from the invoking do_mmap() so there is simply no need to wait.
This also means the implementation of further memfd seal flags can be done
within mm/memfd.c and also have the opportunity to modify VMA flags as
necessary early in the mapping logic.

We build on previous work making expand_downwards() an entirely internal
function.
This logic is subtle and so it is highly useful to get it into vma.c so we
can then userland unit test.
We must additionally move acct_stack_growth() to vma.c as it is a helper
function used by both expand_downwards() and expand_upwards().
We are also then able to mark anon_vma_interval_tree_pre_update_vma() and
anon_vma_interval_tree_post_update_vma() static as these are no longer
used by anything else.

Right now fs/exec.c invokes expand_downwards(), an otherwise internal
implementation detail of the VMA logic in order to ensure that an arg page
can be obtained by get_user_pages_remote().
In order to be able to move the stack expansion logic into mm/vma.c to
make it available to userland testing we need to find an alternative
approach here.
We do so by providing the mmap_read_lock_maybe_expand() function which
also helpfully documents what get_arg_page() is doing here and adds an
additional check against VM_GROWSDOWN to make explicit that the stack
expansion logic is only invoked when the VMA is indeed a downward-growing
stack.
This allows expand_downwards() to become a static function.
Importantly, the VMA referenced by mmap_read_maybe_expand() must NOT be
currently user-visible in any way, that is place within an rmap or VMA
tree. It must be a newly allocated VMA.
This is the case when exec invokes this function.

We want to be able to unit test the unmapped area logic, so move it to

In addition, naturally, update the existing test code to enable this to be

Patch series "mm/vma: make more mmap logic userland testable".
This series carries on the work started in previous series and
continued in commit 52956b0d7fb9 ("mm: isolate mmap internal logic to
mm/vma.c"), moving the remainder of memory mapping implementation
details logic into mm/vma.c allowing the bulk of the mapping logic to
be unit tested.
It is highly useful to do so, as this means we can both fundamentally test
this core logic, and introduce regression tests to ensure any issues
previously resolved do not recur.
Vitally, this includes the do_brk_flags() function, meaning we have both
core means of userland mapping memory now testable.
Performance testing was performed after this change given the brk() system
call's sensitivity to change, and no performance regression was observed.
The stack expansion logic is also moved into mm/vma.c, which necessitates
a change in the API exposed to the exec code, removing the invocation of
the expand_downwards() function used in get_arg_page() and instead adding
mmap_read_lock_maybe_expand() to wrap this.
This patch (of 5):
Now we have moved mmap_region() internals to mm/vma.c, making it available
to userland testing, it makes sense to do the same with brk().
This continues the pattern of VMA heavy lifting being done in mm/vma.c in
an environment where it can be subject to straightforward unit and
regression testing, with other VMA-adjacent files becoming wrappers around
this functionality.

Commit ed48e87c7df3 ("thp: add thp_get_unmapped_area_vmflags()") changes
thp_get_unmapped_area() to thp_get_unmapped_area_vmflags() in
__get_unmapped_area(), which doesn't initialize local get_area for
anonymous mappings. This leads to us always trying THP alignment even for
file_operations which have a NULL ->get_unmapped_area() callback.
Since commit efa7df3e3bb5 ("mm: align larger anonymous mappings on THP
boundaries") we only want to enable THP alignment for anonymous mappings,
so add a !file check to avoid attempting THP alignment for file mappings.
Found issue by code inspection. THP alignment is used for easy or more
pmd mappings, from vma side. This may cause unnecessary VMA fragmentation
and potentially worse performance on filesystems that do not actually
support THPs and thus cannot benefit from the alignment.

Patch series "mm: reinstate ability to map write-sealed memfd mappings
read-only".
In commit 158978945f31 ("mm: perform the mapping_map_writable() check
after call_mmap()") (and preceding changes in the same series) it became
possible to mmap() F_SEAL_WRITE sealed memfd mappings read-only.
Commit 5de195060b2e ("mm: resolve faulty mmap_region() error path
behaviour") unintentionally undid this logic by moving the
mapping_map_writable() check before the shmem_mmap() hook is invoked,
thereby regressing this change.
This series reworks how we both permit write-sealed mappings being mapped
read-only and disallow mprotect() from undoing the write-seal, fixing this
regression.
We also add a regression test to ensure that we do not accidentally
regress this in future.
Thanks to Julian Orth for reporting this regression.
This patch (of 2):
In commit 158978945f31 ("mm: perform the mapping_map_writable() check
after call_mmap()") (and preceding changes in the same series) it became
possible to mmap() F_SEAL_WRITE sealed memfd mappings read-only.
This was previously unnecessarily disallowed, despite the man page
documentation indicating that it would be, thereby limiting the usefulness
of F_SEAL_WRITE logic.
We fixed this by adapting logic that existed for the F_SEAL_FUTURE_WRITE
seal (one which disallows future writes to the memfd) to also be used for
F_SEAL_WRITE.
For background - the F_SEAL_FUTURE_WRITE seal clears VM_MAYWRITE for a
read-only mapping to disallow mprotect() from overriding the seal - an
operation performed by seal_check_write(), invoked from shmem_mmap(), the
f_op->mmap() hook used by shmem mappings.
By extending this to F_SEAL_WRITE and critically - checking
mapping_map_writable() to determine if we may map the memfd AFTER we
invoke shmem_mmap() - the desired logic becomes possible. This is because
mapping_map_writable() explicitly checks for VM_MAYWRITE, which we will
have cleared.
Commit 5de195060b2e ("mm: resolve faulty mmap_region() error path
behaviour") unintentionally undid this logic by moving the
mapping_map_writable() check before the shmem_mmap() hook is invoked,
thereby regressing this change.
We reinstate this functionality by moving the check out of shmem_mmap()
and instead performing it in do_mmap() at the point at which VMA flags are
being determined, which seems in any case to be a more appropriate place
in which to make this determination.
In order to achieve this we rework memfd seal logic to allow us access to
this information using existing logic and eliminate the clearing of
VM_MAYWRITE from seal_check_write() which we are performing in do_mmap()
instead.

Commit efa7df3e3bb5 ("mm: align larger anonymous mappings on THP
boundaries") updated __get_unmapped_area() to align the start address for
the VMA to a PMD boundary if CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE=y.
It does this by effectively looking up a region that is of size,
request_size + PMD_SIZE, and aligning up the start to a PMD boundary.
Commit 4ef9ad19e176 ("mm: huge_memory: don't force huge page alignment on
32 bit") opted out of this for 32bit due to regressions in mmap base
randomization.
Commit d4148aeab412 ("mm, mmap: limit THP alignment of anonymous mappings
to PMD-aligned sizes") restricted this to only mmap sizes that are
multiples of the PMD_SIZE due to reported regressions in some performance
benchmarks -- which seemed mostly due to the reduced spatial locality of
related mappings due to the forced PMD-alignment.
Another unintended side effect has emerged: When a user specifies an mmap
hint address, the THP alignment logic modifies the behavior, potentially
ignoring the hint even if a sufficiently large gap exists at the requested
hint location.
Example Scenario:
Consider the following simplified virtual address (VA) space:
...
0x200000-0x400000 --- VMA A
0x400000-0x600000 --- Hole
0x600000-0x800000 --- VMA B
...
A call to mmap() with hint=0x400000 and len=0x200000 behaves differently:
- Before THP alignment: The requested region (size 0x200000) fits into
the gap at 0x400000, so the hint is respected.
- After alignment: The logic searches for a region of size
0x400000 (len + PMD_SIZE) starting at 0x400000.
This search fails due to the mapping at 0x600000 (VMA B), and the hint
is ignored, falling back to arch_get_unmapped_area[_topdown]().
In general the hint is effectively ignored, if there is any existing
mapping in the below range:
[mmap_hint + mmap_size, mmap_hint + mmap_size + PMD_SIZE)
This changes the semantics of mmap hint; from ""Respect the hint if a
sufficiently large gap exists at the requested location" to "Respect the
hint only if an additional PMD-sized gap exists beyond the requested
size".
This has performance implications for allocators that allocate their heap
using mmap but try to keep it "as contiguous as possible" by using the end
of the exisiting heap as the address hint. With the new behavior it's
more likely to get a much less contiguous heap, adding extra fragmentation
and performance overhead.
To restore the expected behavior; don't use
thp_get_unmapped_area_vmflags() when the user provided a hint address, for
anonymous mappings.
Note: As Yang Shi pointed out: the issue still remains for filesystems
which are using thp_get_unmapped_area() for their get_unmapped_area() op.
It is unclear what worklaods will regress for if we ignore THP alignment
when the hint address is provided for such file backed mappings -- so this
fix will be handled separately.

Ever since commit 8d7071af8907 ("mm: always expand the stack with the mmap
write lock held") we have been expanding the stack with the mmap write
lock held.
This is true in all code paths:
get_arg_page()
-> expand_downwards()
setup_arg_pages()
-> expand_stack_locked()
-> expand_downwards() / expand_upwards()
lock_mm_and_find_vma()
-> expand_stack_locked()
-> expand_downwards() / expand_upwards()
create_elf_tables()
-> find_extend_vma_locked()
-> expand_stack_locked()
expand_stack()
-> vma_expand_down()
-> expand_downwards()
expand_stack()
-> vma_expand_up()
-> expand_upwards()
Each of which acquire the mmap write lock before doing so. Despite this,
we maintain code that acquires a page table lock in the expand_upwards()
and expand_downwards() code, stating that we hold a shared mmap lock and
thus this is necessary.
It is not, we do not have to worry about concurrent VMA expansions so we
can simply drop this, and update comments accordingly.
We do not even need be concerned with racing page faults, as
vma_start_write() is invoked in both cases.

In previous commits we effected improvements to the mmap() logic in
mmap_region() and its newly introduced internal implementation function
__mmap_region().
However as these changes are intended to be backported, we kept the delta
as small as is possible and made as few changes as possible to the newly
introduced mm/vma.* files.
Take the opportunity to move this logic to mm/vma.c which not only
isolates it, but also makes it available for later userland testing which
can help us catch such logic errors far earlier.

Patch series "Unify hugetlb into arch_get_unmapped_area functions", v4.
This is an attempt to get rid of a fair amount of duplicated code wrt.
hugetlb and *get_unmapped_area* functions.
HugeTLB registers a .get_unmapped_area function which gets called from
__get_unmapped_area().
hugetlb_get_unmapped_area() is defined by a bunch of architectures and
it also has a generic definition for those that do not define it.
Short-long story is that there is a ton of duplicated code between
specific hugetlb *_get_unmapped_area_* functions and mm-core functions,
so we can do better by teaching arch_get_unmapped_area* functions how
to deal with hugetlb mappings.
Note that not a lot of things need to be taught though.
hugetlb_get_unmapped_area, that gets called for hugetlb mappings, runs
some sanity checks prior to calling mm_get_unmapped_area_vmflags(), so we
do not need to that down the road in the respective
{generic,arch}_get_unmapped_area* functions.
More information can be found in the respective patches.
LTP mmapstress hugetlb selftests were ran succesfully on:
This patch (of 9):
We want to stop special casing hugetlb mappings and make them go through
generic channels, so teach generic_get_unmapped_area{_topdown} to handle
those. The main difference is that we set info.align_mask for huge
mappings.

The mmap_region() function is somewhat terrifying, with spaghetti-like
control flow and numerous means by which issues can arise and incomplete
state, memory leaks and other unpleasantness can occur.
A large amount of the complexity arises from trying to handle errors late
in the process of mapping a VMA, which forms the basis of recently
observed issues with resource leaks and observable inconsistent state.
Taking advantage of previous patches in this series we move a number of
checks earlier in the code, simplifying things by moving the core of the
logic into a static internal function __mmap_region().
Doing this allows us to perform a number of checks up front before we do
any real work, and allows us to unwind the writable unmap check
unconditionally as required and to perform a CONFIG_DEBUG_VM_MAPLE_TREE
validation unconditionally also.
We move a number of things here:
1. We preallocate memory for the iterator before we call the file-backed
memory hook, allowing us to exit early and avoid having to perform
complicated and error-prone close/free logic. We carefully free
iterator state on both success and error paths.
2. The enclosing mmap_region() function handles the mapping_map_writable()
logic early. Previously the logic had the mapping_map_writable() at the
point of mapping a newly allocated file-backed VMA, and a matching
mapping_unmap_writable() on success and error paths.
We now do this unconditionally if this is a file-backed, shared writable
mapping. If a driver changes the flags to eliminate VM_MAYWRITE, however
doing so does not invalidate the seal check we just performed, and we in
any case always decrement the counter in the wrapper.
We perform a debug assert to ensure a driver does not attempt to do the
opposite.
3. We also move arch_validate_flags() up into the mmap_region()
function. This is only relevant on arm64 and sparc64, and the check is
only meaningful for SPARC with ADI enabled. We explicitly add a warning
for this arch if a driver invalidates this check, though the code ought
eventually to be fixed to eliminate the need for this.
With all of these measures in place, we no longer need to explicitly close
the VMA on error paths, as we place all checks which might fail prior to a
call to any driver mmap hook.
This eliminates an entire class of errors, makes the code easier to reason
about and more robust.

Currently MTE is permitted in two circumstances (desiring to use MTE
having been specified by the VM_MTE flag) - where MAP_ANONYMOUS is
specified, as checked by arch_calc_vm_flag_bits() and actualised by
setting the VM_MTE_ALLOWED flag, or if the file backing the mapping is
shmem, in which case we set VM_MTE_ALLOWED in shmem_mmap() when the mmap
hook is activated in mmap_region().
The function that checks that, if VM_MTE is set, VM_MTE_ALLOWED is also
set is the arm64 implementation of arch_validate_flags().
Unfortunately, we intend to refactor mmap_region() to perform this check
earlier, meaning that in the case of a shmem backing we will not have
invoked shmem_mmap() yet, causing the mapping to fail spuriously.
It is inappropriate to set this architecture-specific flag in general mm
code anyway, so a sensible resolution of this issue is to instead move the
check somewhere else.
We resolve this by setting VM_MTE_ALLOWED much earlier in do_mmap(), via
the arch_calc_vm_flag_bits() call.
This is an appropriate place to do this as we already check for the
MAP_ANONYMOUS case here, and the shmem file case is simply a variant of
the same idea - we permit RAM-backed memory.
This requires a modification to the arch_calc_vm_flag_bits() signature to
pass in a pointer to the struct file associated with the mapping, however
this is not too egregious as this is only used by two architectures anyway
- arm64 and parisc.
So this patch performs this adjustment and removes the unnecessary
assignment of VM_MTE_ALLOWED in shmem_mmap().

Refactor the map_deny_write_exec() to not unnecessarily require a VMA
parameter but rather to accept VMA flags parameters, which allows us to
use this function early in mmap_region() in a subsequent commit.
While we're here, we refactor the function to be more readable and add
some additional documentation.

Incorrect invocation of VMA callbacks when the VMA is no longer in a
consistent state is bug prone and risky to perform.
With regards to the important vm_ops->close() callback We have gone to
great lengths to try to track whether or not we ought to close VMAs.
Rather than doing so and risking making a mistake somewhere, instead
unconditionally close and reset vma->vm_ops to an empty dummy operations
set with a NULL .close operator.
We introduce a new function to do so - vma_close() - and simplify existing
vms logic which tracked whether we needed to close or not.
This simplifies the logic, avoids incorrect double-calling of the .close()
callback and allows us to update error paths to simply call vma_close()
unconditionally - making VMA closure idempotent.

Patch series "fix error handling in mmap_region() and refactor
(hotfixes)", v4.
mmap_region() is somewhat terrifying, with spaghetti-like control flow and
numerous means by which issues can arise and incomplete state, memory
leaks and other unpleasantness can occur.
A large amount of the complexity arises from trying to handle errors late
in the process of mapping a VMA, which forms the basis of recently
observed issues with resource leaks and observable inconsistent state.
This series goes to great lengths to simplify how mmap_region() works and
to avoid unwinding errors late on in the process of setting up the VMA for
the new mapping, and equally avoids such operations occurring while the
VMA is in an inconsistent state.
The patches in this series comprise the minimal changes required to
resolve existing issues in mmap_region() error handling, in order that
they can be hotfixed and backported. There is additionally a follow up
series which goes further, separated out from the v1 series and sent and
updated separately.
This patch (of 5):
After an attempted mmap() fails, we are no longer in a situation where we
can safely interact with VMA hooks. This is currently not enforced,
meaning that we need complicated handling to ensure we do not incorrectly
call these hooks.
We can avoid the whole issue by treating the VMA as suspect the moment
that the file->f_ops->mmap() function reports an error by replacing
whatever VMA operations were installed with a dummy empty set of VMA
operations.
We do so through a new helper function internal to mm - mmap_file() -
which is both more logically named than the existing call_mmap() function
and correctly isolates handling of the vm_op reassignment to mm.
All the existing invocations of call_mmap() outside of mm are ultimately
nested within the call_mmap() from mm, which we now replace.
It is therefore safe to leave call_mmap() in place as a convenience
function (and to avoid churn). The invokers are:
ovl_file_operations -> mmap -> ovl_mmap() -> backing_file_mmap()
coda_file_operations -> mmap -> coda_file_mmap()
shm_file_operations -> shm_mmap()
shm_file_operations_huge -> shm_mmap()
dma_buf_fops -> dma_buf_mmap_internal -> i915_dmabuf_ops
-> i915_gem_dmabuf_mmap()
None of these callers interact with vm_ops or mappings in a problematic
way on error, quickly exiting out.

Since commit efa7df3e3bb5 ("mm: align larger anonymous mappings on THP
boundaries") a mmap() of anonymous memory without a specific address hint
and of at least PMD_SIZE will be aligned to PMD so that it can benefit
from a THP backing page.
However this change has been shown to regress some workloads
significantly. [1] reports regressions in various spec benchmarks, with
up to 600% slowdown of the cactusBSSN benchmark on some platforms. The
benchmark seems to create many mappings of 4632kB, which would have merged
to a large THP-backed area before commit efa7df3e3bb5 and now they are
fragmented to multiple areas each aligned to PMD boundary with gaps
between. The regression then seems to be caused mainly due to the
benchmark's memory access pattern suffering from TLB or cache aliasing due
to the aligned boundaries of the individual areas.
Another known regression bisected to commit efa7df3e3bb5 is darktable [2]
[3] and early testing suggests this patch fixes the regression there as
well.
To fix the regression but still try to benefit from THP-friendly anonymous
mapping alignment, add a condition that the size of the mapping must be a
multiple of PMD size instead of at least PMD size. In case of many

Commit ea7e2d5e49c0 ("mm: call the security_mmap_file() LSM hook in
remap_file_pages()") fixed a security issue, it added an LSM check when
trying to remap file pages, so that LSMs have the opportunity to evaluate
such action like for other memory operations such as mmap() and
mprotect().
However, that commit called security_mmap_file() inside the mmap_lock
lock, while the other calls do it before taking the lock, after commit
8b3ec6814c83 ("take security_mmap_file() outside of ->mmap_sem").
This caused lock inversion issue with IMA which was taking the mmap_lock
and i_mutex lock in the opposite way when the remap_file_pages() system
call was called.
Solve the issue by splitting the critical region in remap_file_pages() in
two regions: the first takes a read lock of mmap_lock, retrieves the VMA
and the file descriptor associated, and calculates the 'prot' and 'flags'
variables; the second takes a write lock on mmap_lock, checks that the VMA
flags and the VMA file descriptor are the same as the ones obtained in the
first critical region (otherwise the system call fails), and calls
do_mmap().
In between, after releasing the read lock and before taking the write
lock, call security_mmap_file(), and solve the lock inversion issue.

Patch series "introduce VMA merge mode to improve brk() performance".
A ~5% performance regression was discovered on the
aim9.brk_test.ops_per_sec by the linux kernel test bot [0].
In the past to satisfy brk() performance we duplicated VMA expansion code
and special-cased do_brk_flags(). This is however horrid and undoes work
to abstract this logic, so in resolving the issue I have endeavoured to
avoid this.
Investigating further I was able to observe that the use of a
vma_iter_next_range() and vma_prev() pair, causing an unnecessary maple
tree walk. In addition there is work that we do that is simply
unnecessary for brk().
Therefore, add a special VMA merge mode VMG_FLAG_JUST_EXPAND to avoid
doing any of this - it assumes the VMA iterator is pointing at the
previous VMA and which skips logic that brk() does not require.
This mostly eliminates the performance regression reducing it to ~2% which
is in the realm of noise. In addition, the will-it-scale test brk2,
written to be more representative of real-world brk() usage, shows a
modest performance improvement - which gives me confidence that we are not
meaningfully regressing real workloads here.
This series includes a test asserting that the 'just expand' mode works as
expected.
With many thanks to Oliver Sang for helping with performance testing of
candidate patch sets!
[0]:https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/202409301043.629bea78-oliver.sang@intel.com
This patch (of 2):
We know in advance that do_brk_flags() wants only to perform a VMA
expansion (if the prior VMA is compatible), and that we assume no
mergeable VMA follows it.
These are the semantics of this function prior to the recent rewrite of
the VMA merging logic, however we are now doing more work than necessary -
positioning the VMA iterator at the prior VMA and performing tasks that
are not required.
Add a new field to the vmg struct to permit merge flags and add a new
merge flag VMG_FLAG_JUST_EXPAND which implies this behaviour, and have
do_brk_flags() use this.
This fixes a reported performance regression in a brk() benchmarking suite.

Avoiding the zeroing of the vma tree in mmap_region() introduced a race
with truncate in the page table walk. To avoid any races, create a hole
in the rmap during the operation by clearing the pagetable entries earlier
under the mmap write lock and (critically) before the new vma is installed
into the vma tree. The result is that the old vma(s) are left in the vma
tree, but free_pgtables() removes them from the rmap and clears the ptes
while holding the necessary locks.
This change extends the fix required for hugetblfs and the call_mmap()
function by moving the cleanup higher in the function and running it
unconditionally.

Commit f8d112a4e657 ("mm/mmap: avoid zeroing vma tree in mmap_region()")
changed how error handling is performed in mmap_region().
The error value defaults to -ENOMEM, but then gets reassigned immediately
to the result of vms_gather_munmap_vmas() if we are performing a MAP_FIXED
mapping over existing VMAs (and thus unmapping them).
This overwrites the error value, potentially clearing it.
After this, we invoke may_expand_vm() and possibly vm_area_alloc(), and
check to see if they failed. If they do so, then we perform error-handling
logic, but importantly, we do NOT update the error code.
This means that, if vms_gather_munmap_vmas() succeeds, but one of these
calls does not, the function will return indicating no error, but rather an
address value of zero, which is entirely incorrect.
Correct this and avoid future confusion by strictly setting error on each
and every occasion we jump to the error handling logic, and set the error
code immediately prior to doing so.
This way we can see at a glance that the error code is always correct.
Many thanks to Vegard Nossum who spotted this issue in discussion around
this problem.

The remap_file_pages syscall handler calls do_mmap() directly, which
doesn't contain the LSM security check. And if the process has called
personality(READ_IMPLIES_EXEC) before and remap_file_pages() is called for
RW pages, this will actually result in remapping the pages to RWX,
bypassing a W^X policy enforced by SELinux.
So we should check prot by security_mmap_file LSM hook in the
remap_file_pages syscall handler before do_mmap() is called. Otherwise, it
potentially permits an attacker to bypass a W^X policy enforced by
SELinux.
The bypass is similar to CVE-2016-10044, which bypass the same thing via
AIO and can be found in [1].
The PoC:
$ cat > test.c
int main(void) {
size_t pagesz = sysconf(_SC_PAGE_SIZE);
int mfd = syscall(SYS_memfd_create, "test", 0);
const char *buf = mmap(NULL, 4 * pagesz, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_SHARED, mfd, 0);
unsigned int old = syscall(SYS_personality, 0xffffffff);
syscall(SYS_personality, READ_IMPLIES_EXEC | old);
syscall(SYS_remap_file_pages, buf, pagesz, 0, 2, 0);
syscall(SYS_personality, old);
// show the RWX page exists even if W^X policy is enforced
int fd = open("/proc/self/maps", O_RDONLY);
unsigned char buf2[1024];
while (1) {
int ret = read(fd, buf2, 1024);

As covered in the commit log for c44357c2e76b ("x86/mm: care about shadow
stack guard gap during placement") our current mmap() implementation does
not take care to ensure that a new mapping isn't placed with existing
mappings inside it's own guard gaps. This is particularly important for
shadow stacks since if two shadow stacks end up getting placed adjacent to
each other then they can overflow into each other which weakens the
protection offered by the feature.
On x86 there is a custom arch_get_unmapped_area() which was updated by the
above commit to cover this case by specifying a start_gap for allocations
with VM_SHADOW_STACK. Both arm64 and RISC-V have equivalent features and
use the generic implementation of arch_get_unmapped_area() so let's make
the equivalent change there so they also don't get shadow stack pages
placed without guard pages. x86 uses a single page guard, this is also
sufficient for arm64 where we either do single word pops and pushes or
unconstrained writes.
Architectures which do not have this feature will define VM_SHADOW_STACK
to VM_NONE and hence be unaffected.

In preparation for using vm_flags to ensure guard pages for shadow stacks
supply them as an argument to generic_get_unmapped_area(). The only user
outside of the core code is the PowerPC book3s64 implementation which is
trivially wrapping the generic implementation in the radix_enabled() case.
No functional changes.

Patch series "mm: Care about shadow stack guard gap when getting an
unmapped area", v2.
As covered in the commit log for c44357c2e76b ("x86/mm: care about shadow
stack guard gap during placement") our current mmap() implementation does
not take care to ensure that a new mapping isn't placed with existing
mappings inside it's own guard gaps. This is particularly important for
shadow stacks since if two shadow stacks end up getting placed adjacent to
each other then they can overflow into each other which weakens the
protection offered by the feature.
On x86 there is a custom arch_get_unmapped_area() which was updated by the
above commit to cover this case by specifying a start_gap for allocations
with VM_SHADOW_STACK. Both arm64 and RISC-V have equivalent features and
use the generic implementation of arch_get_unmapped_area() so let's make
the equivalent change there so they also don't get shadow stack pages
placed without guard pages. The arm64 and RISC-V shadow stack
implementations are currently on the list:
https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240829-arm64-gcs-v12-0-42fec94743
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20240403234054.2020347-1-debug@rivosinc.com/
Given the addition of the use of vm_flags in the generic implementation we
also simplify the set of possibilities that have to be dealt with in the
core code by making arch_get_unmapped_area() take vm_flags as standard.
This is a bit invasive since the prototype change touches quite a few
architectures but since the parameter is ignored the change is
straightforward, the simplification for the generic code seems worth it.
This patch (of 3):
When we introduced arch_get_unmapped_area_vmflags() in 961148704acd ("mm:
introduce arch_get_unmapped_area_vmflags()") we did so as part of properly
supporting guard pages for shadow stacks on x86_64, which uses a custom
arch_get_unmapped_area(). Equivalent features are also present on both
arm64 and RISC-V, both of which use the generic implementation of
arch_get_unmapped_area() and will require equivalent modification there.
Rather than continue to deal with having two versions of the functions
let's bite the bullet and have all implementations of
arch_get_unmapped_area() take vm_flags as a parameter.
The new parameter is currently ignored by all implementations other than
x86. The only caller that doesn't have a vm_flags available is
mm_get_unmapped_area(), as for the x86 implementation and the wrapper used
on other architectures this is modified to supply no flags.
No functional changes.

Abstract vma_merge_new_vma() to use vma_merge_struct and rename the
resultant function vma_merge_new_range() to be clear what the purpose of
this function is - a new VMA is desired in the specified range, and we
wish to see if it is possible to 'merge' surrounding VMAs into this range
rather than having to allocate a new VMA.
Note that this function uses vma_extend() exclusively, so adopts its
requirement that the iterator point at or before the gap. We add an
assert to this effect.
This is as opposed to vma_merge_existing_range(), which will be introduced
in a subsequent commit, and provide the same functionality for cases in
which we are modifying an existing VMA.
In mmap_region() and do_brk_flags() we open code scenarios where we prefer
to use vma_expand() rather than invoke a full vma_merge() operation.
Abstract this logic and eliminate all of the open-coding, and also use the
same logic for all cases where we add new VMAs to, rather than ultimately
use vma_merge(), rather use vma_expand().
Doing so removes duplication and simplifies VMA merging in all such cases,
laying the ground for us to eliminate the merging of new VMAs in
vma_merge() altogether.
Also add the ability for the vmg to track state, and able to report
errors, allowing for us to differentiate a failed merge from an inability
to allocate memory in callers.
This makes it far easier to understand what is happening in these cases
avoiding confusion, bugs and allowing for future optimisation.
Also introduce vma_iter_next_rewind() to allow for retrieval of the next,
and (optionally) the prev VMA, rewinding to the start of the previous gap.
Introduce are_anon_vmas_compatible() to abstract individual VMA anon_vma
comparison for the case of merging on both sides where the anon_vma of the
VMA being merged maybe compatible with prev and next, but prev and next's
anon_vma's may not be compatible with each other.
Finally also introduce can_vma_merge_left() / can_vma_merge_right() to
check adjacent VMA compatibility and that they are indeed adjacent.

The purpose of the vmg is to thread merge state through functions and
avoid egregious parameter lists. We expand this to vma_expand(), which is
used for a number of merge cases.
Accordingly, adjust its callers, mmap_region() and relocate_vma_down(), to
use a vmg.
An added purpose of this change is the ability in a future commit to
perform all new VMA range merging using vma_expand().

Both can_vma_merge_before() and can_vma_merge_after() are invoked after
checking for compatible VMA NUMA policy, we can simply move this to
is_mergeable_vma() and abstract this altogether.
In mmap_region() we set vmg->policy to NULL, so the policy comparisons
checked in can_vma_merge_before() and can_vma_merge_after() are exactly
equivalent to !vma_policy(vmg.next) and !vma_policy(vmg.prev).
Equally, in do_brk_flags(), vmg->policy is NULL, so the
can_vma_merge_after() is checking !vma_policy(vma), as we set vmg.prev to
vma.
In vma_merge(), we compare prev and next policies with vmg->policy before
checking can_vma_merge_after() and can_vma_merge_before() respectively,
which this patch causes to be checked in precisely the same way.
This therefore maintains precisely the same logic as before, only now
abstracted into is_mergeable_vma().

Rather than passing around huge numbers of parameters to numerous helper
functions, abstract them into a single struct that we thread through the
operation, the vma_merge_struct ('vmg').
Adjust vma_merge() and vma_modify() to accept this parameter, as well as
predicate functions can_vma_merge_before(), can_vma_merge_after(), and the
vma_modify_...() helper functions.
Also introduce VMG_STATE() and VMG_VMA_STATE() helper macros to allow for
easy vmg declaration.
We additionally remove the requirement that vma_merge() is passed a VMA
object representing the candidate new VMA. Previously it used this to
obtain the mm_struct, file and anon_vma properties of the proposed range
(a rather confusing state of affairs), which are now provided by the vmg
directly.
We also remove the pgoff calculation previously performed vma_modify(),
and instead calculate this in VMG_VMA_STATE() via the vma_pgoff_offset()
helper.

The may_expand_vm() check requires the count of the pages within the
munmap range. Since this is needed for accounting and obtained later, the
reodering of ma_expand_vm() to later in the call stack, after the vma
munmap struct (vms) is initialised and the gather stage is potentially
run, will allow for a single loop over the vmas. The gather sage does not
commit any work and so everything can be undone in the case of a failure.
The MAP_FIXED page count is available after the vms_gather_munmap_vmas()
call, so use it instead of looping over the vmas twice.

The do_vma_munmap() wrapper existed for callers that didn't have a vma
iterator and needed to check the vma mseal status prior to calling the
underlying munmap(). All callers now use a vma iterator and since the
mseal check has been moved to do_vmi_align_munmap() and the vmas are
aligned, this function can just be called instead.
do_vmi_align_munmap() can no longer be static as ipc/shm is using it and
it is exported via the mm.h header.

Prior to call_mmap(), the vmas that will be replaced need to clear the way
for what may happen in the call_mmap(). This clean up work includes
clearing the ptes and calling the close() vm_ops. Some users do more
setup than can be restored by calling the vm_ops open() function. It is
safer to store the gap in the vma tree in these cases.
That is to say that the failure scenario that existed before the MAP_FIXED
gap exposure is restored as it is safer than trying to undo a partial
mapping.
Since abort_munmap_vmas() is only reattaching vmas with this change, the
function is renamed to reattach_vmas().
There is also a secondary failure that may occur if there is not enough
memory to store the gap. In this case, the vmas are reattached and
resources freed. If the system cannot complete the call_mmap() and fails
to allocate with GFP_KERNEL, then the system will print a warning about
the failure.

Instead of zeroing the vma tree and then overwriting the area, let the
area be overwritten and then clean up the gathered vmas using
vms_complete_munmap_vmas().
To ensure locking is downgraded correctly, the mm is set regardless of
MAP_FIXED or not (NULL vma).
If a driver is mapping over an existing vma, then clear the ptes before
the call_mmap() invocation. This is done using the vms_clean_up_area()
helper. If there is a close vm_ops, that must also be called to ensure
any cleanup is done before mapping over the area. This also means that
calling open has been added to the abort of an unmap operation, for now.
Since vm_ops->open() and vm_ops->close() are not always undo each other
(state cleanup may exist in ->close() that is lost forever), the code
cannot be left in this way, but that change has been isolated to another
commit to make this point very obvious for traceability.
Temporarily keep track of the number of pages that will be removed and
reduce the charged amount.
This also drops the validate_mm() call in the vma_expand() function. It
is necessary to drop the validate as it would fail since the mm map_count
would be incorrect during a vma expansion, prior to the cleanup from
vms_complete_munmap_vmas().
Clean up the error handing of the vms_gather_munmap_vmas() by calling the
verification within the function.

Instead of moving (or leaving) the vma iterator pointing at the previous
vma, leave it pointing at the insert location. Pointing the vma iterator
at the insert location allows for a cleaner walk of the vma tree for
MAP_FIXED and the no expansion cases.
The vma_prev() call in the case of merging the previous vma is equivalent
to vma_iter_prev_range(), since the vma iterator will be pointing to the
location just before the previous vma.
This change needs to export abort_munmap_vmas() from mm/vma.

initialized for a less error-prone process when calling
vms_complete_munmap_vmas() later on.

Open code the do_vmi_align_munmap() call so that it can be broken up later
in the series.
This requires exposing a few more vma operations.

mmap_region is already passed sanitized addr and len, so change the call
to do_vmi_munmap() to do_vmi_align_munmap() and inline the other checks.
The inlining of the function and checks is an intermediate step in the
series so future patches are easier to follow.

All relevant architectures had already been converted to the new interface
(which just has an underscore in front of the name - not very imaginative
naming), this just force-converts the stragglers.
The modern interface is almost identical to the old one, except instead of
the page pointer it takes a "struct vm_special_mapping" that describes the
mapping (and contains the page pointer as one member), and it returns the
resulting 'vma' instead of just the error code.
Getting rid of the old interface also gets rid of some special casing,
which had caused problems with the mremap extensions to "struct
vm_special_mapping".

Add an optional close() callback to struct vm_special_mapping. It will be
used, by powerpc at least, to handle unmapping of the VDSO.
Although support for unmapping the VDSO was initially added for CRIU[1],
it is not desirable to guard that support behind
CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE.
There are other known users of unmapping the VDSO which are not related to
CRIU, eg. Valgrind [2] and void-ship [3].
The powerpc arch_unmap() hook has been in place for ~9 years, with no
ifdef, so there may be other unknown users that have come to rely on
unmapping the VDSO. Even if the code was behind an ifdef, major distros
enable CHECKPOINT_RESTORE so users may not realise unmapping the VDSO
depends on that configuration option.
It's also undesirable to have such core mm behaviour behind a relatively
obscure CONFIG option.
Longer term the unmap behaviour should be standardised across
architectures, however that is complicated by the fact the VDSO pointer is
stored differently across architectures. There was a previous attempt to
unify that handling [4], which could be revived.
See [5] for further discussion.

This patch introduces vma.c and moves internal core VMA manipulation
functions to this file from mmap.c.
This allows us to isolate VMA functionality in a single place such that we
can create userspace testing code that invokes this functionality in an
environment where we can implement simple unit tests of core
functionality.
This patch ensures that core VMA functionality is explicitly marked as
such by its presence in mm/vma.h.
It also places the header includes required by vma.c in vma_internal.h,
which is simply imported by vma.c. This makes the VMA functionality
testable, as userland testing code can simply stub out functionality as
required.

The vma_shrink() and vma_expand() functions are internal VMA manipulation
functions which we ought to abstract for use outside of memory management
code.
To achieve this, we replace shift_arg_pages() in fs/exec.c with an
invocation of a new relocate_vma_down() function implemented in mm/mmap.c,
which enables us to also move move_page_tables() and vma_iter_prev_range()
to internal.h.
The purpose of doing this is to isolate key VMA manipulation functions in
order that we can both abstract them and later render them easily
testable.

Pull random number generator updates from Jason Donenfeld:
"This adds getrandom() support to the vDSO.
First, it adds a new kind of mapping to mmap(2), MAP_DROPPABLE, which
lets the kernel zero out pages anytime under memory pressure, which
enables allocating memory that never gets swapped to disk but also
doesn't count as being mlocked.
Then, the vDSO implementation of getrandom() is introduced in a
generic manner and hooked into random.c.
Next, this is implemented on x86. (Also, though it's not ready for
this pull, somebody has begun an arm64 implementation already)
Finally, two vDSO selftests are added.
There are also two housekeeping cleanup commits"
* tag 'random-6.11-rc1-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/crng/random:
MAINTAINERS: add random.h headers to RNG subsection
random: note that RNDGETPOOL was removed in 2.6.9-rc2
selftests/vDSO: add tests for vgetrandom
x86: vdso: Wire up getrandom() vDSO implementation
random: introduce generic vDSO getrandom() implementation
mm: add MAP_DROPPABLE for designating always lazily freeable mappings
|
|
The vDSO getrandom() implementation works with a buffer allocated with a
new system call that has certain requirements:
- It shouldn't be written to core dumps.
* Easy: VM_DONTDUMP.
- It should be zeroed on fork.
* Easy: VM_WIPEONFORK.
- It shouldn't be written to swap.
* Uh-oh: mlock is rlimited.
* Uh-oh: mlock isn't inherited by forks.
- It shouldn't reserve actual memory, but it also shouldn't crash when
page faulting in memory if none is available
* Uh-oh: VM_NORESERVE means segfaults.
It turns out that the vDSO getrandom() function has three really nice
characteristics that we can exploit to solve this problem:
1) Due to being wiped during fork(), the vDSO code is already robust to
having the contents of the pages it reads zeroed out midway through
the function's execution.
2) In the absolute worst case of whatever contingency we're coding for,
we have the option to fallback to the getrandom() syscall, and
everything is fine.
3) The buffers the function uses are only ever useful for a maximum of
60 seconds -- a sort of cache, rather than a long term allocation.
These characteristics mean that we can introduce VM_DROPPABLE, which
has the following semantics:
a) It never is written out to swap.
b) Under memory pressure, mm can just drop the pages (so that they're
zero when read back again).
c) It is inherited by fork.
d) It doesn't count against the mlock budget, since nothing is locked.
e) If there's not enough memory to service a page fault, it's not fatal,
and no signal is sent.
This way, allocations used by vDSO getrandom() can use:
VM_DROPPABLE | VM_DONTDUMP | VM_WIPEONFORK | VM_NORESERVE
And there will be no problem with OOMing, crashing on overcommitment,
using memory when not in use, not wiping on fork(), coredumps, or
writing out to swap.
In order to let vDSO getrandom() use this, expose these via mmap(2) as
MAP_DROPPABLE.
Note that this involves removing the MADV_FREE special case from
sort_folio(), which according to Yu Zhao is unnecessary and will simply
result in an extra call to shrink_folio_list() in the worst case. The
chunk removed reenables the swapbacked flag, which we don't want for
VM_DROPPABLE, and we can't conditionalize it here because there isn't a
vma reference available.
Finally, the provided self test ensures that this is working as desired.

Execs of dynamically linked binaries at 20-ish cores are bottlenecked on
the i_mmap_rwsem semaphore, while the biggest singular contributor is
free_pgd_range inducing the lock acquire back-to-back for all consecutive
mappings of a given file.
Tracing the count of said acquires while building the kernel shows:
[1, 2) 799579 |@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@|
[2, 3) 0 | |
[3, 4) 3009 | |
[4, 5) 3009 | |
[5, 6) 326442 |@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ |
So in particular there were 326442 opportunities to coalesce 5 acquires
into 1.
Doing so increases execs per second by 4% (~50k to ~52k) when running
the benchmark linked below.
The lock remains the main bottleneck, I have not looked at other spots
yet.
Bench can be found here:
http://apollo.backplane.com/DFlyMisc/doexec.c
$ cc -O2 -o shared-doexec doexec.c
$ ./shared-doexec $(nproc)
Note this particular test makes sure binaries are separate, but the
loader is shared.

The new mseal() is an syscall on 64 bit CPU, and with following signature:
int mseal(void addr, size_t len, unsigned long flags)
addr/len: memory range.
flags: reserved.
mseal() blocks following operations for the given memory range.
1> Unmapping, moving to another location, and shrinking the size,
via munmap() and mremap(), can leave an empty space, therefore can
be replaced with a VMA with a new set of attributes.
2> Moving or expanding a different VMA into the current location,
via mremap().
3> Modifying a VMA via mmap(MAP_FIXED).
4> Size expansion, via mremap(), does not appear to pose any specific
risks to sealed VMAs. It is included anyway because the use case is
unclear. In any case, users can rely on merging to expand a sealed VMA.
5> mprotect() and pkey_mprotect().
6> Some destructive madvice() behaviors (e.g. MADV_DONTNEED) for anonymous
memory, when users don't have write permission to the memory. Those
behaviors can alter region contents by discarding pages, effectively a
memset(0) for anonymous memory.
Following input during RFC are incooperated into this patch:
Jann Horn: raising awareness and providing valuable insights on the
destructive madvise operations.
Linus Torvalds: assisting in defining system call signature and scope.
Liam R. Howlett: perf optimization.
Theo de Raadt: sharing the experiences and insight gained from
implementing mimmutable() in OpenBSD.
Finally, the idea that inspired this patch comes from Stephen Röttger's
work in Chrome V8 CFI.

When memory is being placed, mmap() will take care to respect the guard
gaps of certain types of memory (VM_SHADOWSTACK, VM_GROWSUP and
VM_GROWSDOWN). In order to ensure guard gaps between mappings, mmap()
needs to consider two things:
1. That the new mapping isn't placed in an any existing mappings guard
gaps.
2. That the new mapping isn't placed such that any existing mappings
are not in *its* guard gaps.
The longstanding behavior of mmap() is to ensure 1, but not take any care
around 2. So for example, if there is a PAGE_SIZE free area, and a mmap()
with a PAGE_SIZE size, and a type that has a guard gap is being placed,
mmap() may place the shadow stack in the PAGE_SIZE free area. Then the
mapping that is supposed to have a guard gap will not have a gap to the
adjacent VMA.
For MAP_GROWSDOWN/VM_GROWSDOWN and MAP_GROWSUP/VM_GROWSUP this has not
been a problem in practice because applications place these kinds of
mappings very early, when there is not many mappings to find a space
between. But for shadow stacks, they may be placed throughout the
lifetime of the application.
Use the start_gap field to find a space that includes the guard gap for
the new mapping. Take care to not interfere with the alignment.

Future changes will need to add a new member to struct
vm_unmapped_area_info. This would cause trouble for any call site that
doesn't initialize the struct. Currently every caller sets each member
manually, so if new ones are added they will be uninitialized and the core
code parsing the struct will see garbage in the new member.
It could be possible to initialize the new member manually to 0 at each
call site. This and a couple other options were discussed. Having some
struct vm_unmapped_area_info instances not zero initialized will put those
sites at risk of feeding garbage into vm_unmapped_area(), if the
convention is to zero initialize the struct and any new field addition
missed a call site that initializes each field manually. So it is useful
to do things similar across the kernel.
The consensus (see links) was that in general the best way to accomplish
taking into account both code cleanliness and minimizing the chance of
introducing bugs, was to do C99 static initialization. As in: struct
vm_unmapped_area_info info = {};
With this method of initialization, the whole struct will be zero
initialized, and any statements setting fields to zero will be unneeded.
The change should not leave cleanup at the call sides.
While iterating though the possible solutions a few archs kindly acked
other variations that still zero initialized the struct. These sites have
been modified in previous changes using the pattern acked by the
respective arch.
So to be reduce the chance of bugs via uninitialized fields, perform a
tree wide change using the consensus for the best general way to do this
change. Use C99 static initializing to zero the struct and remove and
statements that simply set members to zero.

Add a THP implementations of the vm_flags variant of get_unmapped_area().
Future changes will call this from mmap.c in the do_mmap() path to allow
shadow stacks to be placed with consideration taken for the start guard
gap. Shadow stack memory is always private and anonymous and so special
guard gap logic is not needed in a lot of caseis, but it can be mapped by
THP, so needs to be handled.

Use mm_get_unmapped_area_vmflags() in the do_mmap() so future changes can
cause shadow stack mappings to be placed with a guard gap. Also use the
THP variant that takes vm_flags, such that THP shadow stack can get the
same treatment. Adjust the vm_flags calculation to happen earlier so that
the vm_flags can be passed into __get_unmapped_area().

When memory is being placed, mmap() will take care to respect the guard
gaps of certain types of memory (VM_SHADOWSTACK, VM_GROWSUP and
VM_GROWSDOWN). In order to ensure guard gaps between mappings, mmap()
needs to consider two things:
1. That the new mapping isn't placed in an any existing mappings guard
gaps.
2. That the new mapping isn't placed such that any existing mappings
are not in *its* guard gaps.
The longstanding behavior of mmap() is to ensure 1, but not take any care
around 2. So for example, if there is a PAGE_SIZE free area, and a mmap()
with a PAGE_SIZE size, and a type that has a guard gap is being placed,
mmap() may place the shadow stack in the PAGE_SIZE free area. Then the
mapping that is supposed to have a guard gap will not have a gap to the
adjacent VMA.
In order to take the start gap into account, the maple tree search needs
to know the size of start gap the new mapping will need. The call chain
from do_mmap() to the actual maple tree search looks like this:
do_mmap(size, vm_flags, map_flags, ..)
mm/mmap.c:get_unmapped_area(size, map_flags, ...)
arch_get_unmapped_area(size, map_flags, ...)
vm_unmapped_area(struct vm_unmapped_area_info)
One option would be to add another MAP_ flag to mean a one page start gap
(as is for shadow stack), but this consumes a flag unnecessarily. Another
option could be to simply increase the size passed in do_mmap() by the
start gap size, and adjust after the fact, but this will interfere with
the alignment requirements passed in struct vm_unmapped_area_info, and
unknown to mmap.c. Instead, introduce variants of
arch_get_unmapped_area/_topdown() that take vm_flags. In future changes,
these variants can be used in mmap.c:get_unmapped_area() to allow the
vm_flags to be passed through to vm_unmapped_area(), while preserving the
normal arch_get_unmapped_area/_topdown() for the existing callers.

The mm_struct contains a function pointer *get_unmapped_area(), which is
set to either arch_get_unmapped_area() or arch_get_unmapped_area_topdown()
during the initialization of the mm.
Since the function pointer only ever points to two functions that are
named the same across all arch's, a function pointer is not really
required. In addition future changes will want to add versions of the
functions that take additional arguments. So to save a pointers worth of
bytes in mm_struct, and prevent adding additional function pointers to
mm_struct in future changes, remove it and keep the information about
which get_unmapped_area() to use in a flag.
Add the new flag to MMF_INIT_MASK so it doesn't get clobbered on fork by
mmf_init_flags(). Most MM flags get clobbered on fork. In the
pre-existing behavior mm->get_unmapped_area() would get copied to the new
mm in dup_mm(), so not clobbering the flag preserves the existing behavior
around inheriting the topdown-ness.
Introduce a helper, mm_get_unmapped_area(), to easily convert code that
refers to the old function pointer to instead select and call either
arch_get_unmapped_area() or arch_get_unmapped_area_topdown() based on the
flag. Then drop the mm->get_unmapped_area() function pointer. Leave the
get_unmapped_area() pointer in struct file_operations alone. The main
purpose of this change is to reorganize in preparation for future changes,
but it also converts the calls of mm->get_unmapped_area() from indirect
branches into a direct ones.
The stress-ng bigheap benchmark calls realloc a lot, which calls through
get_unmapped_area() in the kernel. On x86, the change yielded a ~1%
improvement there on a retpoline config.
In testing a few x86 configs, removing the pointer unfortunately didn't
result in any actual size reductions in the compiled layout of mm_struct.
But depending on compiler or arch alignment requirements, the change could
shrink the size of mm_struct.

There are two types of iterators mas and vmi in the current code. If the
maple tree comes from the mm structure, we can use the vma iterator.
Avoid using mas directly as possible.
Keep using mas for the mt_detach tree, since it doesn't come from the mm
structure.
Remove as many uses of mas as possible, but we will still have a few that

There's a bunch of flags that are purely based on what the file
operations support while also never being conditionally set or unset.
IOW, they're not subject to change for individual files. Imho, such
flags don't need to live in f_mode they might as well live in the fops
structs itself. And the fops struct already has that lonely
mmap_supported_flags member. We might as well turn that into a generic
fop_flags member and move a few flags from FMODE_* space into FOP_*
space. That gets us four FMODE_* bits back and the ability for new
static flags that are about file ops to not have to live in FMODE_*
space but in their own FOP_* space. It's not the most beautiful thing
ever but it gets the job done. Yes, there'll be an additional pointer
chase but hopefully that won't matter for these flags.
I suspect there's a few more we can move into there and that we can also
redirect a bunch of new flag suggestions that follow this pattern into
the fop_flags field instead of f_mode.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- Sumanth Korikkar has taught s390 to allocate hotplug-time page frames
from hotplugged memory rather than only from main memory. Series
"implement "memmap on memory" feature on s390".
- More folio conversions from Matthew Wilcox in the series
"Convert memcontrol charge moving to use folios"
"mm: convert mm counter to take a folio"
- Chengming Zhou has optimized zswap's rbtree locking, providing
significant reductions in system time and modest but measurable
reductions in overall runtimes. The series is "mm/zswap: optimize the
scalability of zswap rb-tree".
- Chengming Zhou has also provided the series "mm/zswap: optimize zswap
lru list" which provides measurable runtime benefits in some
swap-intensive situations.
- And Chengming Zhou further optimizes zswap in the series "mm/zswap:
optimize for dynamic zswap_pools". Measured improvements are modest.
- zswap cleanups and simplifications from Yosry Ahmed in the series
"mm: zswap: simplify zswap_swapoff()".
- In the series "Add DAX ABI for memmap_on_memory", Vishal Verma has
contributed several DAX cleanups as well as adding a sysfs tunable to
control the memmap_on_memory setting when the dax device is
hotplugged as system memory.
- Johannes Weiner has added the large series "mm: zswap: cleanups",
which does that.
- More DAMON work from SeongJae Park in the series
"mm/damon: make DAMON debugfs interface deprecation unignorable"
"selftests/damon: add more tests for core functionalities and corner cases"
"Docs/mm/damon: misc readability improvements"
"mm/damon: let DAMOS feeds and tame/auto-tune itself"
- In the series "mm/mempolicy: weighted interleave mempolicy and sysfs
extension" Rakie Kim has developed a new mempolicy interleaving
policy wherein we allocate memory across nodes in a weighted fashion
rather than uniformly. This is beneficial in heterogeneous memory
environments appearing with CXL.
- Christophe Leroy has contributed some cleanup and consolidation work
against the ARM pagetable dumping code in the series "mm: ptdump:
Refactor CONFIG_DEBUG_WX and check_wx_pages debugfs attribute".
- Luis Chamberlain has added some additional xarray selftesting in the
series "test_xarray: advanced API multi-index tests".
- Muhammad Usama Anjum has reworked the selftest code to make its
human-readable output conform to the TAP ("Test Anything Protocol")
format. Amongst other things, this opens up the use of third-party
tools to parse and process out selftesting results.
- Ryan Roberts has added fork()-time PTE batching of THP ptes in the
series "mm/memory: optimize fork() with PTE-mapped THP". Mainly
targeted at arm64, this significantly speeds up fork() when the
process has a large number of pte-mapped folios.
- David Hildenbrand also gets in on the THP pte batching game in his
series "mm/memory: optimize unmap/zap with PTE-mapped THP". It
implements batching during munmap() and other pte teardown
situations. The microbenchmark improvements are nice.
- And in the series "Transparent Contiguous PTEs for User Mappings"
Ryan Roberts further utilizes arm's pte's contiguous bit ("contpte
mappings"). Kernel build times on arm64 improved nicely. Ryan's
series "Address some contpte nits" provides some followup work.
- In the series "mm/hugetlb: Restore the reservation" Breno Leitao has
fixed an obscure hugetlb race which was causing unnecessary page
faults. He has also added a reproducer under the selftest code.
- In the series "selftests/mm: Output cleanups for the compaction
test", Mark Brown did what the title claims.
- Kinsey Ho has added the series "mm/mglru: code cleanup and
refactoring".
- Even more zswap material from Nhat Pham. The series "fix and extend
zswap kselftests" does as claimed.
- In the series "Introduce cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() to fix DAX
regression" Mathieu Desnoyers has cleaned up and fixed rather a mess
in our handling of DAX on archiecctures which have virtually aliasing
data caches. The arm architecture is the main beneficiary.
- Lokesh Gidra's series "per-vma locks in userfaultfd" provides
dramatic improvements in worst-case mmap_lock hold times during
certain userfaultfd operations.
- Some page_owner enhancements and maintenance work from Oscar Salvador
in his series
"page_owner: print stacks and their outstanding allocations"
"page_owner: Fixup and cleanup"
- Uladzislau Rezki has contributed some vmalloc scalability
improvements in his series "Mitigate a vmap lock contention". It
realizes a 12x improvement for a certain microbenchmark.
- Some kexec/crash cleanup work from Baoquan He in the series "Split
crash out from kexec and clean up related config items".
- Some zsmalloc maintenance work from Chengming Zhou in the series
"mm/zsmalloc: fix and optimize objects/page migration"
"mm/zsmalloc: some cleanup for get/set_zspage_mapping()"
- Zi Yan has taught the MM to perform compaction on folios larger than
order=0. This a step along the path to implementaton of the merging
of large anonymous folios. The series is named "Enable >0 order folio
memory compaction".
- Christoph Hellwig has done quite a lot of cleanup work in the
pagecache writeback code in his series "convert write_cache_pages()
to an iterator".
- Some modest hugetlb cleanups and speedups in Vishal Moola's series
"Handle hugetlb faults under the VMA lock".
- Zi Yan has changed the page splitting code so we can split huge pages
into sizes other than order-0 to better utilize large folios. The
series is named "Split a folio to any lower order folios".
- David Hildenbrand has contributed the series "mm: remove
total_mapcount()", a cleanup.
- Matthew Wilcox has sought to improve the performance of bulk memory
freeing in his series "Rearrange batched folio freeing".
- Gang Li's series "hugetlb: parallelize hugetlb page init on boot"
provides large improvements in bootup times on large machines which
are configured to use large numbers of hugetlb pages.
- Matthew Wilcox's series "PageFlags cleanups" does that.
- Qi Zheng's series "minor fixes and supplement for ptdesc" does that
also. S390 is affected.
- Cleanups to our pagemap utility functions from Peter Xu in his series
"mm/treewide: Replace pXd_large() with pXd_leaf()".
- Nico Pache has fixed a few things with our hugepage selftests in his
series "selftests/mm: Improve Hugepage Test Handling in MM
Selftests".
- Also, of course, many singleton patches to many things. Please see
the individual changelogs for details.

When debugging issues with a workload using SysV shmem, Michal Hocko has
come up with a reproducer that shows how a series of mprotect() operations
can result in an elevated shm_nattch and thus leak of the resource.
The problem is caused by wrong assumptions in vma_merge() commit
714965ca8252 ("mm/mmap: start distinguishing if vma can be removed in
mergeability test"). The shmem vmas have a vma_ops->close callback that
decrements shm_nattch, and we remove the vma without calling it.
vma_merge() has thus historically avoided merging vma's with
vma_ops->close and commit 714965ca8252 was supposed to keep it that way.
It relaxed the checks for vma_ops->close in can_vma_merge_after() assuming
that it is never called on a vma that would be a candidate for removal.
However, the vma_merge() code does also use the result of this check in
the decision to remove a different vma in the merge case 7.
A robust solution would be to refactor vma_merge() code in a way that the
vma_ops->close check is only done for vma's that are actually going to be
removed, and not as part of the preliminary checks. That would both solve
the existing bug, and also allow additional merges that the checks
currently prevent unnecessarily in some cases.
However to fix the existing bug first with a minimized risk, and for
easier stable backports, this patch only adds a vma_ops->close check to
the buggy case 7 specifically. All other cases of vma removal are covered
by the can_vma_merge_before() check that includes the test for
vma_ops->close.
The reproducer code, adapted from Michal Hocko's code:
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
int segment_id;
size_t segment_size = 20 * PAGE_SIZE;
char * sh_mem;
struct shmid_ds shmid_ds;
key_t key = 0x1234;
segment_id = shmget(key, segment_size,
IPC_CREAT | IPC_EXCL | S_IRUSR | S_IWUSR);
sh_mem = (char *)shmat(segment_id, NULL, 0);
mprotect(sh_mem + 2*PAGE_SIZE, PAGE_SIZE, PROT_NONE);
mprotect(sh_mem + PAGE_SIZE, PAGE_SIZE, PROT_WRITE);
mprotect(sh_mem + 2*PAGE_SIZE, PAGE_SIZE, PROT_WRITE);
shmdt(sh_mem);
shmctl(segment_id, IPC_STAT, &shmid_ds);
printf("nattch after shmdt(): %lu (expected: 0)\n", shmid_ds.shm_nattch);
if (shmctl(segment_id, IPC_RMID, 0))
printf("IPCRM failed %d\n", errno);
return (shmid_ds.shm_nattch) ? 1 : 0;
}

These vma_merge() callers will pass mm, anon_vma and file, they all from

Pass vma instead of mm, anon_vma and file to vma_merge(), so that it can

The addition of commit efa7df3e3bb5 ("mm: align larger anonymous mappings
on THP boundaries") caused the "virtual_address_range" mm selftest to
start failing on arm64. Let's fix that regression.
There were 2 visible problems when running the test; 1) it takes much
longer to execute, and 2) the test fails. Both are related:
The (first part of the) test allocates as many 1GB anonymous blocks as it
can in the low 256TB of address space, passing NULL as the addr hint to
mmap. Before the faulty patch, all allocations were abutted and contained
in a single, merged VMA. However, after this patch, each allocation is in
its own VMA, and there is a 2M gap between each VMA. This causes the 2
problems in the test: 1) mmap becomes MUCH slower because there are so
many VMAs to check to find a new 1G gap. 2) mmap fails once it hits the
VMA limit (/proc/sys/vm/max_map_count). Hitting this limit then causes a
subsequent calloc() to fail, which causes the test to fail.
The problem is that arm64 (unlike x86) selects
ARCH_WANT_DEFAULT_TOPDOWN_MMAP_LAYOUT. But __thp_get_unmapped_area()
allocates len+2M then always aligns to the bottom of the discovered gap.
That causes the 2M hole.
Fix this by detecting cases where we can still achive the alignment goal
when moved to the top of the allocated area, if configured to prefer
top-down allocation.
While we are at it, fix thp_get_unmapped_area's use of pgoff, which should
always be zero for anonymous mappings. Prior to the faulty change, while
it was possible for user space to pass in pgoff!=0, the old
mm->get_unmapped_area() handler would not use it. thp_get_unmapped_area()
does use it, so let's explicitly zero it before calling the handler. This
should also be the correct behavior for arches that define their own
get_unmapped_area() handler.

Align larger anonymous memory mappings on THP boundaries by going through
thp_get_unmapped_area if THPs are enabled for the current process.
With this patch, larger anonymous mappings are now THP aligned. When a
malloc library allocates a 2MB or larger arena, that arena can now be
mapped with THPs right from the start, which can result in better TLB hit
rates and execution time.

In dup_mmap(), using __mt_dup() to duplicate the old maple tree and then
directly replacing the entries of VMAs in the new maple tree can result in
better performance. __mt_dup() uses DFS pre-order to duplicate the maple
tree, so it is efficient.
The average time complexity of __mt_dup() is O(n), where n is the number
of VMAs. The proof of the time complexity is provided in the commit log
that introduces __mt_dup(). After duplicating the maple tree, each
element is traversed and replaced (ignoring the cases of deletion, which
are rare). Since it is only a replacement operation for each element,
this process is also O(n).
Analyzing the exact time complexity of the previous algorithm is
challenging because each insertion can involve appending to a node,
pushing data to adjacent nodes, or even splitting nodes. The frequency of
each action is difficult to calculate. The worst-case scenario for a
single insertion is when the tree undergoes splitting at every level. If
we consider each insertion as the worst-case scenario, we can determine
that the upper bound of the time complexity is O(n*log(n)), although this
is a loose upper bound. However, based on the test data, it appears that
the actual time complexity is likely to be O(n).
As the entire maple tree is duplicated using __mt_dup(), if dup_mmap()
fails, there will be a portion of VMAs that have not been duplicated in
the maple tree. To handle this, we mark the failure point with
XA_ZERO_ENTRY. In exit_mmap(), if this marker is encountered, stop
releasing VMAs that have not been duplicated after this point.
There is a "spawn" in byte-unixbench[1], which can be used to test the
performance of fork(). I modified it slightly to make it work with
different number of VMAs.
Below are the test results. The first row shows the number of VMAs. The
second and third rows show the number of fork() calls per ten seconds,
corresponding to next-20231006 and the this patchset, respectively. The
test results were obtained with CPU binding to avoid scheduler load
balancing that could cause unstable results. There are still some
fluctuations in the test results, but at least they are better than the
original performance.

Pull execve updates from Kees Cook:
- Support non-BSS ELF segments with zero filesz
Eric Biederman and I refactored ELF segment loading to handle the
case where a segment has a smaller filesz than memsz. Traditionally
linkers only did this for .bss and it was always the last segment. As
a result, the kernel only handled this case when it was the last
segment. We've had two recent cases where linkers were trying to use
these kinds of segments for other reasons, and the were in the middle
of the segment list. There was no good reason for the kernel not to
support this, and the refactor actually ends up making things more
readable too.
- Enable namespaced binfmt_misc
Christian Brauner has made it possible to use binfmt_misc with mount
namespaces. This means some traditionally root-only interfaces (for
adding/removing formats) are now more exposed (but believed to be
safe).
- Remove struct tag 'dynamic' from ELF UAPI
Alejandro Colomar noticed that the ELF UAPI has been polluting the
struct namespace with an unused and overly generic tag named
"dynamic" for no discernible reason for many many years. After
double-checking various distro source repositories, it has been
removed.

In order for a F_SEAL_WRITE sealed memfd mapping to have an opportunity to
clear VM_MAYWRITE, we must be able to invoke the appropriate
vm_ops->mmap() handler to do so. We would otherwise fail the
mapping_map_writable() check before we had the opportunity to avoid it.
This patch moves this check after the call_mmap() invocation. Only memfd
actively denies write access causing a potential failure here (in
memfd_add_seals()), so there should be no impact on non-memfd cases.
This patch makes the userland-visible change that MAP_SHARED, PROT_READ
mappings of an F_SEAL_WRITE sealed memfd mapping will now succeed.
There is a delicate situation with cleanup paths assuming that a writable
mapping must have occurred in circumstances where it may now not have. In
order to ensure we do not accidentally mark a writable file unwritable by
mistake, we explicitly track whether we have a writable mapping and unmap
only if we do.

Patch series "permit write-sealed memfd read-only shared mappings", v4.
The man page for fcntl() describing memfd file seals states the following
about F_SEAL_WRITE:-
Furthermore, trying to create new shared, writable memory-mappings via
mmap(2) will also fail with EPERM.
With emphasis on 'writable'. In turns out in fact that currently the
kernel simply disallows all new shared memory mappings for a memfd with
F_SEAL_WRITE applied, rendering this documentation inaccurate.
This matters because users are therefore unable to obtain a shared mapping
to a memfd after write sealing altogether, which limits their usefulness.
This was reported in the discussion thread [1] originating from a bug
report [2].
This is a product of both using the struct address_space->i_mmap_writable
atomic counter to determine whether writing may be permitted, and the
kernel adjusting this counter when any VM_SHARED mapping is performed and
more generally implicitly assuming VM_SHARED implies writable.
It seems sensible that we should only update this mapping if VM_MAYWRITE
is specified, i.e. whether it is possible that this mapping could at any
point be written to.
If we do so then all we need to do to permit write seals to function as
documented is to clear VM_MAYWRITE when mapping read-only. It turns out
this functionality already exists for F_SEAL_FUTURE_WRITE - we can
therefore simply adapt this logic to do the same for F_SEAL_WRITE.
We then hit a chicken and egg situation in mmap_region() where the check
for VM_MAYWRITE occurs before we are able to clear this flag. To work
around this, perform this check after we invoke call_mmap(), with careful
consideration of error paths.
Thanks to Andy Lutomirski for the suggestion!

[2]:https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=217238
This patch (of 3):
There is a general assumption that VMAs with the VM_SHARED flag set are
writable. If the VM_MAYWRITE flag is not set, then this is simply not the
case.
Update those checks which affect the struct address_space->i_mmap_writable
field to explicitly test for this by introducing
[vma_]is_shared_maywrite() helper functions.
This remains entirely conservative, as the lack of VM_MAYWRITE guarantees
that the VMA cannot be written to.

mremap uses vma_merge() in the case where a VMA needs to be extended. This
can be significantly simplified and abstracted.
This makes it far easier to understand what the actual function is doing,
avoids future mistakes in use of the confusing vma_merge() function and
importantly allows us to make future changes to how vma_merge() is
implemented by knowing explicitly which merge cases each invocation uses.
Note that in the mremap() extend case, we perform this merge only when
old_len == vma->vm_end - addr. The extension_start, i.e. the start of the
extended portion of the VMA is equal to addr + old_len, i.e. vma->vm_end.
With this refactoring, vma_merge() is no longer required anywhere except
mm/mmap.c, so mark it static.

Only in mmap_region() and copy_vma() do we attempt to merge VMAs which
occupy entirely new regions of virtual memory.
We can abstract this logic and make the intent of this invocations of it
completely explicit, rather than invoking vma_merge() with an inscrutable
wall of parameters.
This also paves the way for a simplification of the core vma_merge()
implementation, as we seek to make it entirely an implementation detail.
The VMA merge call in mmap_region() occurs only for file-backed mappings,
where each of the parameters previously specified as NULL are defaulted to
NULL in vma_init() (called by vm_area_alloc()).
This matches the previous behaviour of specifying NULL for a number of
fields, however note that prior to this call we pass the VMA to the file
system driver via call_mmap(), which may in theory adjust fields that we
pass in to vma_merge_new_vma().
Therefore we actually resolve an oversight here by allowing for the fact
that the driver may have done this.

Now the common pattern of - attempting a merge via vma_merge() and should
this fail splitting VMAs via split_vma() - has been abstracted, the former
can be placed into mm/internal.h and the latter made static.
In addition, the split_vma() nommu variant also need not be exported.

mprotect() and other functions which change VMA parameters over a range
each employ a pattern of:-
1. Attempt to merge the range with adjacent VMAs.
2. If this fails, and the range spans a subset of the VMA, split it
accordingly.
This is open-coded and duplicated in each case. Also in each case most of
the parameters passed to vma_merge() remain the same.
Create a new function, vma_modify(), which abstracts this operation,
accepting only those parameters which can be changed.
To avoid the mess of invoking each function call with unnecessary
parameters, create inline wrapper functions for each of the modify
operations, parameterised only by what is required to perform the action.
We can also significantly simplify the logic - by returning the VMA if we
split (or merged VMA if we do not) we no longer need specific handling for
merge/split cases in any of the call sites.
Note that the userfaultfd_release() case works even though it does not
split VMAs - since start is set to vma->vm_start and end is set to
vma->vm_end, the split logic does not trigger.
In addition, since we calculate pgoff to be equal to vma->vm_pgoff + (start
- vma->vm_start) >> PAGE_SHIFT, and start - vma->vm_start will be 0 in this
instance, this invocation will remain unchanged.
We eliminate a VM_WARN_ON() in mprotect_fixup() as this simply asserts that
vma_merge() correctly ensures that flags remain the same, something that is
already checked in is_mergeable_vma() and elsewhere, and in any case is not
specific to mprotect().

When the calling function fails after the dup_anon_vma(), the
duplication of the anon_vma is not being undone. Add the necessary
unlink_anon_vma() call to the error paths that are missing them.
This issue showed up during inspection of the error path in vma_merge()
for an unrelated vma iterator issue.
Users may experience increased memory usage, which may be problematic as
the failure would likely be caused by a low memory situation.

During the error path, the vma iterator may not be correctly positioned or
set to the correct range. Undo the vma_prev() call by resetting to the
passed in address. Re-walking to the same range will fix the range to the
area previously passed in.
Users would notice increased cycles as vma_merge() would be called an
extra time with vma == prev, and thus would fail to merge and return.

Calling vm_brk_flags() with flags set other than VM_EXEC will exit the
function without releasing the mmap_write_lock.
Just do the sanity check before the lock is acquired. This doesn't fix an
actual issue since no caller sets a flag other than VM_EXEC.

The usages of this function are as below:

The Itanium architecture is obsolete, and an informal survey [0] reveals
that any residual use of Itanium hardware in production is mostly HP-UX
or OpenVMS based. The use of Linux on Itanium appears to be limited to
enthusiasts that occasionally boot a fresh Linux kernel to see whether
things are still working as intended, and perhaps to churn out some
distro packages that are rarely used in practice.
None of the original companies behind Itanium still produce or support
any hardware or software for the architecture, and it is listed as
'Orphaned' in the MAINTAINERS file, as apparently, none of the engineers
that contributed on behalf of those companies (nor anyone else, for that
matter) have been willing to support or maintain the architecture
upstream or even be responsible for applying the odd fix. The Intel
firmware team removed all IA-64 support from the Tianocore/EDK2
reference implementation of EFI in 2018. (Itanium is the original
architecture for which EFI was developed, and the way Linux supports it
deviates significantly from other architectures.) Some distros, such as
Debian and Gentoo, still maintain [unofficial] ia64 ports, but many have
dropped support years ago.
While the argument is being made [1] that there is a 'for the common
good' angle to being able to build and run existing projects such as the
Grid Community Toolkit [2] on Itanium for interoperability testing, the
fact remains that none of those projects are known to be deployed on
Linux/ia64, and very few people actually have access to such a system in
the first place. Even if there were ways imaginable in which Linux/ia64
could be put to good use today, what matters is whether anyone is
actually doing that, and this does not appear to be the case.
There are no emulators widely available, and so boot testing Itanium is
generally infeasible for ordinary contributors. GCC still supports IA-64
but its compile farm [3] no longer has any IA-64 machines. GLIBC would
like to get rid of IA-64 [4] too because it would permit some overdue
code cleanups. In summary, the benefits to the ecosystem of having IA-64
be part of it are mostly theoretical, whereas the maintenance overhead
of keeping it supported is real.
So let's rip off the band aid, and remove the IA-64 arch code entirely.
This follows the timeline proposed by the Debian/ia64 maintainer [5],
which removes support in a controlled manner, leaving IA-64 in a known
good state in the most recent LTS release. Other projects will follow
once the kernel support is removed.

Pull x86 shadow stack support from Dave Hansen:
"This is the long awaited x86 shadow stack support, part of Intel's
Control-flow Enforcement Technology (CET).
CET consists of two related security features: shadow stacks and
indirect branch tracking. This series implements just the shadow stack
part of this feature, and just for userspace.
The main use case for shadow stack is providing protection against
return oriented programming attacks. It works by maintaining a
secondary (shadow) stack using a special memory type that has
protections against modification. When executing a CALL instruction,
the processor pushes the return address to both the normal stack and
to the special permission shadow stack. Upon RET, the processor pops
the shadow stack copy and compares it to the normal stack copy.
For more information, refer to the links below for the earlier
versions of this patch set"

vma_prepare() is currently the central place where vmas are being locked
before vma_complete() applies changes to them. While this is convenient,
it also obscures vma locking and makes it harder to follow the locking
rules. Move vma locking out of vma_prepare() and take vma locks
explicitly at the locations where vmas are being modified. Move vma
locking and replace it with an assertion inside dup_anon_vma() to further
clarify the locking pattern inside vma_merge().

While it's not strictly necessary to lock a newly created vma before
adding it into the vma tree (as long as no further changes are performed

changes after it becomes visible to the page faults. Lock the vma before
adding it into the vma tree.

By delaying the setting of prev/next VMA until after the write of NULL,
the probability of the prev/next VMA already being in the CPU cache is
significantly increased, especially for larger munmap operations. It
also means that prev/next will be loaded closer to when they are used.
This requires changing the loop type when gathering the VMAs that will
be freed.
Since prev will be set later in the function, it is better to reverse
the splitting direction of the start VMA (modify the new_below argument
to __split_vma).
Using the vma_iter_prev_range() to walk back to the correct location in
the tree will, on the most part, mean walking within the CPU cache.
Usually, this is two steps vs a node reset and a tree re-walk.

The majority of the calls to munmap a vm range is within a single vma.
The maple tree is able to store a single entry at 0, with a size of 1 as
a pointer and avoid any allocations. Change do_vmi_align_munmap() to
store the VMAs being munmap()'ed into a tree indexed by the count. This
will leverage the ability to store the first entry without a node
allocation.
Storing the entries into a tree by the count and not the vma start and
end means changing the functions which iterate over the entries. Update
unmap_vmas() and free_pgtables() to take a maple state and a tree end
address to support this functionality.
Passing through the same maple state to unmap_vmas() and free_pgtables()
means the state needs to be reset between calls. This happens in the
static unmap_region() and exit_mmap().

Despite its name, mm_drop_all_locks() does not drop _all_ locks; the mmap
lock is held write-locked by the caller, and the caller is responsible for
dropping the mmap lock at a later point (which will also release the VMA
locks).
Calling vma_end_write_all() here is dangerous because the caller might
have write-locked a VMA with the expectation that it will stay
write-locked until the mmap_lock is released, as usual.
This _almost_ becomes a problem in the following scenario:
An anonymous VMA A and an SGX VMA B are mapped adjacent to each other.
Userspace calls munmap() on a range starting at the start address of A and
ending in the middle of B.
Hypothetical call graph with additional notes in brackets:
do_vmi_align_munmap
[begin first for_each_vma_range loop]
vma_start_write [on VMA A]
vma_mark_detached [on VMA A]
__split_vma [on VMA B]
sgx_vma_open [== new->vm_ops->open]
sgx_encl_mm_add
__mmu_notifier_register [luckily THIS CAN'T ACTUALLY HAPPEN]
mm_take_all_locks
mm_drop_all_locks
vma_end_write_all [drops VMA lock taken on VMA A before]
vma_start_write [on VMA B]
vma_mark_detached [on VMA B]
[end first for_each_vma_range loop]
vma_iter_clear_gfp [removes VMAs from maple tree]
mmap_write_downgrade
unmap_region
mmap_read_unlock
In this hypothetical scenario, while do_vmi_align_munmap() thinks it still
holds a VMA write lock on VMA A, the VMA write lock has actually been
invalidated inside __split_vma().
The call from sgx_encl_mm_add() to __mmu_notifier_register() can't
actually happen here, as far as I understand, because we are duplicating
an existing SGX VMA, but sgx_encl_mm_add() only calls
__mmu_notifier_register() for the first SGX VMA created in a given
process. So this could only happen in fork(), not on munmap(). But in my
view it is just pure luck that this can't happen.
Also, we wouldn't actually have any bad consequences from this in
do_vmi_align_munmap(), because by the time the bug drops the lock on VMA
A, we've already marked VMA A as detached, which makes it completely
ineligible for any VMA-locked page faults. But again, that's just pure
luck.
So remove the vma_end_write_all(), so that VMA write locks are only ever
released on mmap_write_unlock() or mmap_write_downgrade().
Also add comments to document the locking rules established by this patch.

Patch series "More strict maple tree lockdep", v2.
Linus asked for more strict maple tree lockdep checking [1] and for them
to resume the normal path through Andrews tree.
This series of patches adds checks to ensure the lock is held in write
mode during the write path of the maple tree instead of checking if it's
held at all.
It also reduces the validate_mm() calls by consolidating into commonly
used functions (patch 0001), and removes the necessity of holding the lock
on the detached tree during munmap() operations.
This patch (of 4):
validate_mm() calls are too spread out and duplicated in numerous
locations. Also, now that the stack write is done under the write lock,
it is not necessary to validate the mm prior to write operations.
Add a validate_mm() to the stack expansions, and to vma_complete() so
that numerous others may be dropped.
Note that vma_link() (and also insert_vm_struct() by call path) already
call validate_mm().
vma_merge() also had an unnecessary call to vma_iter_free() since the
logic change to abort earlier if no merging is necessary.
Drop extra validate_mm() calls at the start of functions and error paths
which won't write to the tree.
Relocate the validate_mm() call in the do_brk_flags() to avoid
re-running the same test when vma_complete() is used.
The call within the error path of mmap_region() is left intentionally
because of the complexity of the function and the potential of drivers
modifying the tree.

file mapping lock
UnixBench/Execl represents a class of workload where bash scripts are
spawned frequently to do some short jobs. When running multiple parallel
tasks, hot osq_lock is observed from do_mmap and exit_mmap. Both of them
come from load_elf_binary through the call chain
"execl->do_execveat_common->bprm_execve->load_elf_binary".
In do_mmap,it will call mmap_region to create vma node, initialize it and
insert it to vma maintain structure in mm_struct and i_mmap tree of the
mapping file, then increase map_count to record the number of vma nodes
used. The hot osq_lock is to protect operations on file's i_mmap tree.
For the mm_struct member change like vma insertion and map_count update,
they do not affect i_mmap tree. Move those operations out of the lock's
critical section, to reduce hold time on the lock.
With this change, on Intel Sapphire Rapids 112C/224T platform, based on
v6.0-rc6, the 160 parallel score improves by 12%. The patch has no
obvious performance gain on v6.5-rc1 due to regression of this benchmark
from this commit f1a7941243c102a44e8847e3b94ff4ff3ec56f25 (mm: convert

When VMAs are merged, dup_anon_vma() is called with `dst` pointing to the
VMA that is being expanded to cover the area previously occupied by
another VMA. This currently happens while `dst` is not write-locked.
This means that, in the `src->anon_vma && !dst->anon_vma` case, as soon as
the assignment `dst->anon_vma = src->anon_vma` has happened, concurrent
page faults can happen on `dst` under the per-VMA lock. This is already
icky in itself, since such page faults can now install pages into `dst`
that are attached to an `anon_vma` that is not yet tied back to the
`anon_vma` with an `anon_vma_chain`. But if `anon_vma_clone()` fails due
to an out-of-memory error, things get much worse: `anon_vma_clone()` then
reverts `dst->anon_vma` back to NULL, and `dst` remains completely
unconnected to the `anon_vma`, even though we can have pages in the area
covered by `dst` that point to the `anon_vma`.
This means the `anon_vma` of such pages can be freed while the pages are
still mapped into userspace, which leads to UAF when a helper like
folio_lock_anon_vma_read() tries to look up the anon_vma of such a page.
This theoretically is a security bug, but I believe it is really hard to
actually trigger as an unprivileged user because it requires that you can
make an order-0 GFP_KERNEL allocation fail, and the page allocator tries
pretty hard to prevent that.
I think doing the vma_start_write() call inside dup_anon_vma() is the most
straightforward fix for now.
For a kernel-assisted reproducer, see the notes section of the patch mail.

The x86 Control-flow Enforcement Technology (CET) 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.
The architecture of shadow stack constrains the ability of userspace to
move the shadow stack pointer (SSP) in order to prevent corrupting or
switching to other shadow stacks. The RSTORSSP instruction can move the
SSP to different shadow stacks, but it requires a specially placed token
in order to do this. However, the architecture does not prevent
incrementing the stack pointer to wander onto an adjacent shadow stack. To
prevent this in software, enforce guard pages at the beginning of shadow
stack VMAs, such that there will always be a gap between adjacent shadow
stacks.
Make the gap big enough so that no userspace SSP changing operations
(besides RSTORSSP), can move the SSP from one stack to the next. The
SSP can be incremented or decremented by CALL, RET and INCSSP. CALL and
RET can move the SSP by a maximum of 8 bytes, at which point the shadow
stack would be accessed.
The INCSSP instruction can also increment the shadow stack pointer. It
is the shadow stack analog of an instruction like:
addq $0x80, %rsp
However, there is one important difference between an ADD on %rsp and
INCSSP. In addition to modifying SSP, INCSSP also reads from the memory
of the first and last elements that were "popped". It can be thought of
as acting like this:
READ_ONCE(ssp); // read+discard top element on stack
ssp += nr_to_pop * 8; // move the shadow stack
READ_ONCE(ssp-8); // read+discard last popped stack element
The maximum distance INCSSP can move the SSP is 2040 bytes, before it
would read the memory. Therefore, a single page gap will be enough to
prevent any operation from shifting the SSP to an adjacent stack, since
it would have to land in the gap at least once, causing a fault.
This could be accomplished by using VM_GROWSDOWN, but this has a
downside. The behavior would allow shadow stacks to grow, which is
unneeded and adds a strange difference to how most regular stacks work.
In the maple tree code, there is some logic for retrying the unmapped
area search if a guard gap is violated. This retry should happen for
shadow stack guard gap violations as well. This logic currently only
checks for VM_GROWSDOWN for start gaps. Since shadow stacks also have
a start gap as well, create an new define VM_STARTGAP_FLAGS to hold
all the VM flag bits that have start gaps, and make mmap use it.

There was no more caller passing vm_flags to do_mmap(), and vm_flags was
removed from the function's input by:
commit 45e55300f114 ("mm: remove unnecessary wrapper function do_mmap_pgoff()").
There is a new user now. Shadow stack allocation passes VM_SHADOW_STACK to

mmap_region adds a newly created VMA into VMA tree and might modify it
afterwards before dropping the mmap_lock. This poses a problem for page
faults handled under per-VMA locks because they don't take the mmap_lock
and can stumble on this VMA while it's still being modified. Currently
this does not pose a problem since post-addition modifications are done
only for file-backed VMAs, which are not handled under per-VMA lock.
However, once support for handling file-backed page faults with per-VMA
locks is added, this will become a race.
Fix this by write-locking the VMA before inserting it into the VMA tree.
Other places where a new VMA is added into VMA tree do not modify it
after the insertion, so do not need the same locking.

This is an addition to commit ae80b4041984 ("mm: validate the mm before
dropping the mmap lock"), because it turns out there were two problems,
but lockdep just stopped complaining after finding the first one.
The do_vmi_align_munmap() function now drops the mmap lock after doing
the validate_mm() call, but it turns out that one of the callers then
immediately calls validate_mm() again.
That's both a bit silly, and now (again) happens without the mmap lock
held.
So just remove that validate_mm() call from the caller, but make sure to
not lose any coverage by doing that mm sanity checking in the error path
of do_vmi_align_munmap() too.

Commit 408579cd627a ("mm: Update do_vmi_align_munmap() return
semantics") made the return value and locking semantics of
do_vmi_align_munmap() more straightforward, but in the process it ended
up unlocking the mmap lock just a tad too early: the debug code doing
the mmap layout validation still needs to run with the lock held, or
things might change under it while it's trying to validate things.
So just move the unlocking to after the validate_mm() call.

Since do_vmi_align_munmap() will always honor the downgrade request on
the success, the callers no longer have to deal with confusing return
codes. Since all callers that request downgrade actually want the lock
to be dropped, change the downgrade to an unlock request.
Note that the lock still needs to be held in read mode during the page
table clean up to avoid races with a map request.
Update do_vmi_align_munmap() to return 0 for success. Clean up the
callers and comments to always expect the unlock to be honored on the
success path. The error path will always leave the lock untouched.
As part of the cleanup, the wrapper function do_vmi_munmap() and callers
to the wrapper are also updated.

This modifies our user mode stack expansion code to always take the
mmap_lock for writing before modifying the VM layout.
It's actually something we always technically should have done, but
because we didn't strictly need it, we were being lazy ("opportunistic"
sounds so much better, doesn't it?) about things, and had this hack in
place where we would extend the stack vma in-place without doing the
proper locking.
And it worked fine. We just needed to change vm_start (or, in the case
of grow-up stacks, vm_end) and together with some special ad-hoc locking
using the anon_vma lock and the mm->page_table_lock, it all was fairly
straightforward.
That is, it was all fine until Ruihan Li pointed out that now that the
vma layout uses the maple tree code, we *really* don't just change
vm_start and vm_end any more, and the locking really is broken. Oops.
It's not actually all _that_ horrible to fix this once and for all, and
do proper locking, but it's a bit painful. We have basically three
different cases of stack expansion, and they all work just a bit
differently:
- the common and obvious case is the page fault handling. It's actually
fairly simple and straightforward, except for the fact that we have
something like 24 different versions of it, and you end up in a maze
of twisty little passages, all alike.
- the simplest case is the execve() code that creates a new stack.
There are no real locking concerns because it's all in a private new
VM that hasn't been exposed to anybody, but lockdep still can end up
unhappy if you get it wrong.
- and finally, we have GUP and page pinning, which shouldn't really be
expanding the stack in the first place, but in addition to execve()
we also use it for ptrace(). And debuggers do want to possibly access
memory under the stack pointer and thus need to be able to expand the
stack as a special case.
None of these cases are exactly complicated, but the page fault case in
particular is just repeated slightly differently many many times. And
ia64 in particular has a fairly complicated situation where you can have
both a regular grow-down stack _and_ a special grow-up stack for the
register backing store.
So to make this slightly more manageable, the bulk of this series is to
first create a helper function for the most common page fault case, and
convert all the straightforward architectures to it.
Thus the new 'lock_mm_and_find_vma()' helper function, which ends up
being used by x86, arm, powerpc, mips, riscv, alpha, arc, csky, hexagon,
loongarch, nios2, sh, sparc32, and xtensa. So we not only convert more
than half the architectures, we now have more shared code and avoid some
of those twisty little passages.
And largely due to this common helper function, the full diffstat of
this series ends up deleting more lines than it adds.
That still leaves eight architectures (ia64, m68k, microblaze, openrisc,
parisc, s390, sparc64 and um) that end up doing 'expand_stack()'
manually because they are doing something slightly different from the
normal pattern. Along with the couple of special cases in execve() and
GUP.
So there's a couple of patches that first create 'locked' helper
versions of the stack expansion functions, so that there's a obvious
path forward in the conversion. The execve() case is then actually
pretty simple, and is a nice cleanup from our old "grow-up stackls are
special, because at execve time even they grow down".
The #ifdef CONFIG_STACK_GROWSUP in that code just goes away, because
it's just more straightforward to write out the stack expansion there
manually, instead od having get_user_pages_remote() do it for us in some
situations but not others and have to worry about locking rules for GUP.
And the final step is then to just convert the remaining odd cases to a
new world order where 'expand_stack()' is called with the mmap_lock held
for reading, but where it might drop it and upgrade it to a write, only
to return with it held for reading (in the success case) or with it
completely dropped (in the failure case).
In the process, we remove all the stack expansion from GUP (where
dropping the lock wouldn't be ok without special rules anyway), and add
it in manually to __access_remote_vm() for ptrace().
Thanks to Adrian Glaubitz and Frank Scheiner who tested the ia64 cases.
Everything else here felt pretty straightforward, but the ia64 rules for
stack expansion are really quite odd and very different from everything
else. Also thanks to Vegard Nossum who caught me getting one of those
odd conditions entirely the wrong way around.
Anyway, I think I want to actually move all the stack expansion code to
a whole new file of its own, rather than have it split up between
mm/mmap.c and mm/memory.c, but since this will have to be backported to
the initial maple tree vma introduction anyway, I tried to keep the
patches _fairly_ minimal.
Also, while I don't think it's valid to expand the stack from GUP, the
final patch in here is a "warn if some crazy GUP user wants to try to
expand the stack" patch. That one will be reverted before the final
release, but it's left to catch any odd cases during the merge window
and release candidates.

If mas_store_gfp() in the gather loop failed, the 'error' variable that
ultimately gets returned was not being set. In many cases, its original
value of -ENOMEM was still in place, and that was fine. But if VMAs had
been split at the start or end of the range, then 'error' could be zero.
Change to the 'error = foo(); if (error) goto …' idiom to fix the bug.
Also clean up a later case which avoided the same bug by *explicitly*
setting error = -ENOMEM right before calling the function that might
return -ENOMEM.
In a final cosmetic change, move the 'Point of no return' comment to
*after* the goto. That's been in the wrong place since the preallocation
was removed, and this new error path was added.

This finishes the job of always holding the mmap write lock when
extending the user stack vma, and removes the 'write_locked' argument
from the vm helper functions again.
For some cases, we just avoid expanding the stack at all: drivers and
page pinning really shouldn't be extending any stacks. Let's see if any
strange users really wanted that.
It's worth noting that architectures that weren't converted to the new
lock_mm_and_find_vma() helper function are left using the legacy
"expand_stack()" function, but it has been changed to drop the mmap_lock
and take it for writing while expanding the vma. This makes it fairly
straightforward to convert the remaining architectures.
As a result of dropping and re-taking the lock, the calling conventions
for this function have also changed, since the old vma may no longer be
valid. So it will now return the new vma if successful, and NULL - and
the lock dropped - if the area could not be extended.

Make calls to extend_vma() and find_extend_vma() fail if the write lock
is required.
To avoid making this a flag-day event, this still allows the old
read-locking case for the trivial situations, and passes in a flag to
say "is it write-locked". That way write-lockers can say "yes, I'm
being careful", and legacy users will continue to work in all the common
cases until they have been fully converted to the new world order.

Patch series "mm/gup: disallow GUP writing to file-backed mappings by
default", v9.
Writing to file-backed mappings which require folio dirty tracking using
GUP is a fundamentally broken operation, as kernel write access to GUP
mappings do not adhere to the semantics expected by a file system.
A GUP caller uses the direct mapping to access the folio, which does not
cause write notify to trigger, nor does it enforce that the caller marks
the folio dirty.
The problem arises when, after an initial write to the folio, writeback
results in the folio being cleaned and then the caller, via the GUP
interface, writes to the folio again.
As a result of the use of this secondary, direct, mapping to the folio no
write notify will occur, and if the caller does mark the folio dirty, this
will be done so unexpectedly.
For example, consider the following scenario:-
1. A folio is written to via GUP which write-faults the memory, notifying
the file system and dirtying the folio.
2. Later, writeback is triggered, resulting in the folio being cleaned and
the PTE being marked read-only.
3. The GUP caller writes to the folio, as it is mapped read/write via the
direct mapping.
4. The GUP caller, now done with the page, unpins it and sets it dirty
(though it does not have to).
This change updates both the PUP FOLL_LONGTERM slow and fast APIs. As
pin_user_pages_fast_only() does not exist, we can rely on a slightly
imperfect whitelisting in the PUP-fast case and fall back to the slow case
should this fail.
This patch (of 3):
vma_wants_writenotify() is specifically intended for setting PTE page
table flags, accounting for existing page table flag state and whether the
underlying filesystem performs dirty tracking for a file-backed mapping.
Everything is predicated firstly on whether the mapping is shared
writable, as this is the only instance where dirty tracking is pertinent -
MAP_PRIVATE mappings will always be CoW'd and unshared, and read-only
file-backed shared mappings cannot be written to, even with FOLL_FORCE.
All other checks are in line with existing logic, though now separated
into checks eplicitily for dirty tracking and those for determining how to
set page table flags.
We make this change so we can perform checks in the GUP logic to determine
which mappings might be problematic when written to.

It is felt that the name mlock_future_check() is vague - it doesn't
particularly convey the function's operation. mlock_future_ok() is a

In all but one instance, mlock_future_check() is treated as a boolean
function despite returning an error code. In one instance, this error
code is ignored and replaced with -ENOMEM.
This is confusing, and the inversion of true -> failure, false -> success
is not warranted. Convert the function to a bool, lightly refactor and
return true if the check passes, false if not.

We may still have inconsistent input parameters even if we choose not to
merge and the vma_merge() invariant checks are useful for checking this
with no production runtime cost (these are only relevant when
CONFIG_DEBUG_VM is specified).
Therefore, perform these checks regardless of whether we merge.
This is relevant, as a recent issue (addressed in commit "mm/mempolicy:
Correctly update prev when policy is equal on mbind") in the mbind logic
was only picked up in the 6.2.y stable branch where these assertions are
performed prior to determining mergeability.
Had this remained the same in mainline this issue may have been picked up
faster, so moving forward let's always check them.

After upgrading build guests to v6.3, rpm started segfaulting for
specific packages, which was bisected to commit 0503ea8f5ba7 ("mm/mmap:
remove __vma_adjust()"). rpm is doing many mremap() operations with file
mappings of its db. The problem is that in vma_merge() case 3 (we merge
with the next vma, expanding it downwards) vm_pgoff is not adjusted as
it should when vm_start changes. As a result the rpm process most likely
sees data from the wrong offset of the file. Fix the vm_pgoff
calculation.
For case 8 this is a non-functional change as the resulting vm_pgoff is
the same.

Instead of having callers care about the mmap_min_addr logic for the
lowest valid mapping address (and some of them getting it wrong), just
move the logic into vm_unmapped_area() itself. One less thing for various
architecture cases (and generic helpers) to worry about.
We should really try to make much more of this be common code, but baby
steps..
Without this, vm_unmapped_area() could return an address below
mmap_min_addr (because some caller forgot about that). That then causes
the mmap machinery to think it has found a workable address, but then
later security_mmap_addr(addr) is unhappy about it and the mmap() returns
with a nonsensical error (EPERM).
The proper action is to either return ENOMEM (if the virtual address space
is exhausted), or try to find another address (ie do a bottom-up search
for free addresses after the top-down one failed).
See commit 2afc745f3e30 ("mm: ensure get_unmapped_area() returns higher
address than mmap_min_addr"), which fixed this for one call site (the
generic arch_get_unmapped_area_topdown() fallback) but left other cases
alone.

Patch series "mm: process/cgroup ksm support", v9.
So far KSM can only be enabled by calling madvise for memory regions. To
be able to use KSM for more workloads, KSM needs to have the ability to be
enabled / disabled at the process / cgroup level.
Use case 1:
The madvise call is not available in the programming language. An
example for this are programs with forked workloads using a garbage
collected language without pointers. In such a language madvise cannot
be made available.
In addition the addresses of objects get moved around as they are
garbage collected. KSM sharing needs to be enabled "from the outside"
for these type of workloads.
Use case 2:
The same interpreter can also be used for workloads where KSM brings
no benefit or even has overhead. We'd like to be able to enable KSM on
a workload by workload basis.
Use case 3:
With the madvise call sharing opportunities are only enabled for the
current process: it is a workload-local decision. A considerable number
of sharing opportunities may exist across multiple workloads or jobs (if
they are part of the same security domain). Only a higler level entity
like a job scheduler or container can know for certain if its running
one or more instances of a job. That job scheduler however doesn't have
the necessary internal workload knowledge to make targeted madvise
calls.
Security concerns:
In previous discussions security concerns have been brought up. The
problem is that an individual workload does not have the knowledge about
what else is running on a machine. Therefore it has to be very
conservative in what memory areas can be shared or not. However, if the
system is dedicated to running multiple jobs within the same security
domain, its the job scheduler that has the knowledge that sharing can be
safely enabled and is even desirable.
Performance:
Experiments with using UKSM have shown a capacity increase of around 20%.
Here are the metrics from an instagram workload (taken from a machine
with 64GB main memory):
full_scans: 445
general_profit: 20158298048
max_page_sharing: 256
merge_across_nodes: 1
pages_shared: 129547
pages_sharing: 5119146
pages_to_scan: 4000
pages_unshared: 1760924
pages_volatile: 10761341
run: 1
sleep_millisecs: 20
stable_node_chains: 167
stable_node_chains_prune_millisecs: 2000
stable_node_dups: 2751
use_zero_pages: 0
zero_pages_sharing: 0
After the service is running for 30 minutes to an hour, 4 to 5 million
shared pages are common for this workload when using KSM.
Detailed changes:
1. New options for prctl system command
This patch series adds two new options to the prctl system call.
The first one allows to enable KSM at the process level and the second
one to query the setting.
The setting will be inherited by child processes.
With the above setting, KSM can be enabled for the seed process of a cgroup
and all processes in the cgroup will inherit the setting.
2. Changes to KSM processing
When KSM is enabled at the process level, the KSM code will iterate
over all the VMA's and enable KSM for the eligible VMA's.
When forking a process that has KSM enabled, the setting will be
inherited by the new child process.
3. Add general_profit metric
The general_profit metric of KSM is specified in the documentation,
but not calculated. This adds the general profit metric to
/sys/kernel/debug/mm/ksm.
4. Add more metrics to ksm_stat
This adds the process profit metric to /proc/<pid>/ksm_stat.
5. Add more tests to ksm_tests and ksm_functional_tests
This adds an option to specify the merge type to the ksm_tests.
This allows to test madvise and prctl KSM.
It also adds a two new tests to ksm_functional_tests: one to test
the new prctl options and the other one is a fork test to verify that
the KSM process setting is inherited by client processes.
This patch (of 3):
So far KSM can only be enabled by calling madvise for memory regions. To
be able to use KSM for more workloads, KSM needs to have the ability to be
enabled / disabled at the process / cgroup level.
1. New options for prctl system command

over all the VMA's and enable KSM for the eligible VMA's.
When forking a process that has KSM enabled, the setting will be
inherited by the new child process.
1) Introduce new MMF_VM_MERGE_ANY flag
This introduces the new flag MMF_VM_MERGE_ANY flag. When this flag
is set, kernel samepage merging (ksm) gets enabled for all vma's of a
process.
2) Setting VM_MERGEABLE on VMA creation
When a VMA is created, if the MMF_VM_MERGE_ANY flag is set, the
VM_MERGEABLE flag will be set for this VMA.
3) support disabling of ksm for a process
This adds the ability to disable ksm for a process if ksm has been
enabled for the process with prctl.
4) add new prctl option to get and set ksm for a process
This adds two new options to the prctl system call
- enable ksm for all vmas of a process (if the vmas support it).
- query if ksm has been enabled for a process.
3. Disabling MMF_VM_MERGE_ANY for storage keys in s390
In the s390 architecture when storage keys are used, the
MMF_VM_MERGE_ANY will be disabled.

The maple tree limits the gap returned to a window that specifically fits
what was asked. This may not be optimal in the case of switching search
directions or a gap that does not satisfy the requested space for other
reasons. Fix the search by retrying the operation and limiting the search

call_rcu() can take a long time when callback offloading is enabled. Its
use in the vm_area_free can cause regressions in the exit path when
multiple VMAs are being freed.
Because exit_mmap() is called only after the last mm user drops its
refcount, the page fault handlers can't be racing with it. Any other
possible user like oom-reaper or process_mrelease are already synchronized
using mmap_lock. Therefore exit_mmap() can free VMAs directly, without
the use of call_rcu().
Expose __vm_area_free() and use it from exit_mmap() to avoid possible
call_rcu() floods and performance regressions caused by it.

Normally free_pgtables needs to lock affected VMAs except for the case
when VMAs were isolated under VMA write-lock. munmap() does just that,
isolating while holding appropriate locks and then downgrading mmap_lock
and dropping per-VMA locks before freeing page tables. Add a parameter to
free_pgtables for such scenario.

Rather than setting err = -1 and only resetting if we hit merge cases,
explicitly check the non-mergeable case to make it abundantly clear that
we only proceed with the rest if something is mergeable, default err to 0
and only update if an error might occur.
Move the merge_prev, merge_next cases closer to the logic determining
curr, next and reorder initial variables so they are more logically

Previously, vma was an uninitialised variable which was only definitely
assigned as a result of the logic covering all possible input cases - for
it to have remained uninitialised, prev would have to be NULL, and next
would _have_ to be mergeable.
The value of res defaults to NULL, so we can neatly eliminate the
assignment to res and vma in the if (prev) block and ensure that both res
and vma are both explicitly assigned, by just setting both to prev.
In addition we add an explanation as to under what circumstances both
might change, and since we absolutely do rely on addr == curr->vm_start
should curr exist, assert that this is the case.

Use find_vma_intersection() and vma_lookup() to both simplify the logic
and to fold the end == next->vm_start condition into one block.
This groups all of the simple range checks together and establishes the
invariant that, if prev, curr or next are non-NULL then their positions
are as expected.
This has no functional impact.

Patch series "further cleanup of vma_merge()", v2.
Following on from Vlastimil Babka's patch series "cleanup vma_merge() and
improve mergeability tests" which was in turn based on Liam's prior
cleanups, this patch series introduces changes discussed in review of
Vlastimil's series and goes further in attempting to make the logic as
clear as possible.
Nearly all of this should have absolutely no functional impact, however it
does add a singular VM_WARN_ON() case.
With many thanks to Vernon for helping kick start the discussion around
simplification - abstract use of vma did indeed turn out not to be
necessary - and to Liam for his excellent suggestions which greatly
simplified things.
This patch (of 4):
Previously the ASCII diagram above vma_merge() and the accompanying
variable naming was rather confusing, however recent efforts by Liam
Howlett and Vlastimil Babka have significantly improved matters.
This patch goes a little further - replacing 'X' with 'N' which feels a
lot more natural and replacing what was 'N' with 'C' which stands for
'concurrent' VMA.
No word quite describes a VMA that has coincident start as the input span,
concurrent, abbreviated to 'curr' (and which can be thought of also as
'current') however fits intuitions well alongside prev and next.
This has no functional impact.

Since pre-git times, is_mergeable_vma() returns false for a vma with
vm_ops->close, so that no owner assumptions are violated in case the vma
is removed as part of the merge.
This check is currently very conservative and can prevent merging even
situations where vma can't be removed, such as simple expansion of
previous vma, as evidenced by commit d014cd7c1c35 ("mm, mremap: fix
mremap() expanding for vma's with vm_ops->close()")
In order to allow more merging when appropriate and simplify the code that
was made more complex by commit d014cd7c1c35, start distinguishing cases
where the vma can be really removed, and allow merging with vm_ops->close
otherwise.
As a first step, add a may_remove_vma parameter to is_mergeable_vma().
can_vma_merge_before() sets it to true, because when called from
vma_merge(), a removal of the vma is possible.
In can_vma_merge_after(), pass the parameter as false, because no
removal can occur in each of its callers:
- vma_merge() calls it on the 'prev' vma, which is never removed
- mmap_region() and do_brk_flags() call it to determine if it can expand
a vma, which is not removed
As a result, vma's with vm_ops->close may now merge with compatible ranges
in more situations than previously. We can also revert commit
d014cd7c1c35 as the next step to simplify mremap code again.

The variable 'adj_next' holds the value by which we adjust vm_start of a
vma in variable 'adjust', that's either 'next' or 'mid', so the current
name is inaccurate. Rename it to 'adj_start'.

There are several places where we test if 'mid' is really the area NNNN in
the diagram and the tests have two variants and are non-obvious to follow.
Instead, set 'mid' to NULL up-front if it's not the NNNN area, and
simplify the tests.
Also update the description in comment accordingly.

Case 1 is now shown in the comment as next vma being merged with prev, so
use 'next' instead of 'mid'. In case 1 they both point to the same vma.
As a consequence, in case 6, the dup_anon_vma() is now tried first on
'next' and then on 'mid', before it was the opposite order. This is not a
functional change, as those two vma's cannnot have a different anon_vma,
as that would have prevented the merging in the first place.

In case 3 we we use 'next' for everything but vma_pgoff. So use 'next'
for that as well, instead of 'mid', for consistency. Then in case 8 we
have to use 'mid' explicitly, which should also make the intent more
obvious.
Adjust the diagram for cases 1-3 in the comment to match the code - we are
using 'next' for case 3 so mark the range with XXXX instead of NNNN. For
case 2 that's a no-op as the code doesn't touch 'next' or 'mid'. For case
1 it's now wrong but that will be fixed next.
No functional change.

Patch series "cleanup vma_merge() and improve mergeability tests".
My initial goal here was to try making the check for vm_ops->close in
is_mergeable_vma() only be applied for vma's that would be truly removed
as part of the merge (see Patch 9). This would then allow reverting the
quick fix d014cd7c1c35 ("mm, mremap: fix mremap() expanding for vma's with
vm_ops->close()"). This was successful enough to allow the revert (Patch
10). Checks using can_vma_merge_before() are still pessimistic about
possible vma removal, and making them precise would probably complicate
the vma_merge() code too much.
Liam's 6.3-rc1 simplification of vma_merge() and removal of __vma_adjust()
was very much helpful in understanding the vma_merge() implementation and
especially when vma removals can happen, which is now very obvious. While
studing the code, I've found ways to make it hopefully even more easy to
follow, so that's the patches 1-8. That made me also notice a bug that's
now already fixed in 6.3-rc1.
This patch (of 10):
In the merging preparation part of vma_merge(), some vma pointer variables
are assigned for later execution of the merge, but also read from in the
block itself. The code is easier follow and check against the cases
diagram in the comment if the code reads only from the "primary" vma
variables prev, mid, next instead. No functional change.

Use the maple tree in RCU mode for VMA tracking.
The maple tree tracks the stack and is able to update the pivot
(lower/upper boundary) in-place to allow the page fault handler to write
to the tree while holding just the mmap read lock. This is safe as the
writes to the stack have a guard VMA which ensures there will always be a
NULL in the direction of the growth and thus will only update a pivot.
It is possible, but not recommended, to have VMAs that grow up/down
without guard VMAs. syzbot has constructed a testcase which sets up a VMA
to grow and consume the empty space. Overwriting the entire NULL entry
causes the tree to be altered in a way that is not safe for concurrent
readers; the readers may see a node being rewritten or one that does not
match the maple state they are using.
Enabling RCU mode allows the concurrent readers to see a stable node and
will return the expected result.

Patch series "Fixes for MDWE prctl"
These are four small fixes for the recent memory-write-deny-execute prctl
patches [1]. Two reported by Alexey about error handling and two tooling
fixes by Peter.
This patch (of 4):
Commit cc8d1b097de7 ("mmap: clean up mmap_region() unrolling")
deduplicated the error handling, do the same for the return value of
`map_deny_write_exec`.

In case 4, we are shrinking 'prev' (PPPP in the comment) and expanding
'mid' (NNNN). So we need to make sure 'mid' clones the anon_vma from
'prev', if it doesn't have any. After commit 0503ea8f5ba7 ("mm/mmap:
remove __vma_adjust()") we can fail to do that due to wrong parameters for
dup_anon_vma(). The call is a no-op because res == next, adjust == mid
and mid == next. Fix it.

There are scenarios when vm_flags can be modified without exclusive
mmap_lock, such as:
- after VMA was isolated and mmap_lock was downgraded or dropped
- in exit_mmap when there are no other mm users and locking is unnecessary
Introduce __vm_flags_mod to avoid assertions when the caller takes
responsibility for the required locking.
Pass a hint to untrack_pfn to conditionally use __vm_flags_mod for
flags modification to avoid assertion.
