pte_mkdirty() sets both _PAGE_DIRTY and _PAGE_SOFT_DIRTY bits. The
_PAGE_SOFT_DIRTY can get set even if it wasn't set on original page before
migration. This makes non-soft-dirty pages soft-dirty just because of
migration/compaction. Clear the _PAGE_SOFT_DIRTY flag if it wasn't set on
original page.
By definition of soft-dirty feature, there can be spurious soft-dirty
pages because of kernel's internal activity such as VMA merging or
migration/compaction. This patch is eliminating the spurious soft-dirty
pages because of migration/compaction.

- Use memdup_array_user() to harden against overflow.
- Unconditionally advertise KVM_CAP_DEVICE_CTRL for all architectures.
- Clean up Kconfigs that all KVM architectures were selecting
- New functionality around "guest_memfd", a new userspace API that
creates an anonymous file and returns a file descriptor that refers
to it. guest_memfd files are bound to their owning virtual machine,
cannot be mapped, read, or written by userspace, and cannot be resized.
guest_memfd files do however support PUNCH_HOLE, which can be used to
switch a memory area between guest_memfd and regular anonymous memory.
- New ioctl KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES allowing userspace to specify
per-page attributes for a given page of guest memory; right now the
only attribute is whether the guest expects to access memory via
guest_memfd or not, which in Confidential SVMs backed by SEV-SNP,
TDX or ARM64 pKVM is checked by firmware or hypervisor that guarantees
confidentiality (AMD PSP, Intel TDX module, or EL2 in the case of pKVM).
x86:
- Support for "software-protected VMs" that can use the new guest_memfd
and page attributes infrastructure. This is mostly useful for testing,
since there is no pKVM-like infrastructure to provide a meaningfully
reduced TCB.
- Fix a relatively benign off-by-one error when splitting huge pages during
CLEAR_DIRTY_LOG.
- Fix a bug where KVM could incorrectly test-and-clear dirty bits in non-leaf
TDP MMU SPTEs if a racing thread replaces a huge SPTE with a non-huge SPTE.
- Use more generic lockdep assertions in paths that don't actually care
about whether the caller is a reader or a writer.
- let Xen guests opt out of having PV clock reported as "based on a stable TSC",
because some of them don't expect the "TSC stable" bit (added to the pvclock
ABI by KVM, but never set by Xen) to be set.
- Revert a bogus, made-up nested SVM consistency check for TLB_CONTROL.
- Advertise flush-by-ASID support for nSVM unconditionally, as KVM always
flushes on nested transitions, i.e. always satisfies flush requests. This
allows running bleeding edge versions of VMware Workstation on top of KVM.
- Sanity check that the CPU supports flush-by-ASID when enabling SEV support.
- On AMD machines with vNMI, always rely on hardware instead of intercepting
IRET in some cases to detect unmasking of NMIs
- Support for virtualizing Linear Address Masking (LAM)
- Fix a variety of vPMU bugs where KVM fail to stop/reset counters and other state
prior to refreshing the vPMU model.
- Fix a double-overflow PMU bug by tracking emulated counter events using a
dedicated field instead of snapshotting the "previous" counter. If the
hardware PMC count triggers overflow that is recognized in the same VM-Exit
that KVM manually bumps an event count, KVM would pend PMIs for both the
hardware-triggered overflow and for KVM-triggered overflow.
- Turn off KVM_WERROR by default for all configs so that it's not
inadvertantly enabled by non-KVM developers, which can be problematic for
subsystems that require no regressions for W=1 builds.
- Advertise all of the host-supported CPUID bits that enumerate IA32_SPEC_CTRL
"features".
- Don't force a masterclock update when a vCPU synchronizes to the current TSC
generation, as updating the masterclock can cause kvmclock's time to "jump"
unexpectedly, e.g. when userspace hotplugs a pre-created vCPU.
- Use RIP-relative address to read kvm_rebooting in the VM-Enter fault paths,
partly as a super minor optimization, but mostly to make KVM play nice with
position independent executable builds.
- Guard KVM-on-HyperV's range-based TLB flush hooks with an #ifdef on
CONFIG_HYPERV as a minor optimization, and to self-document the code.
- Add CONFIG_KVM_HYPERV to allow disabling KVM support for HyperV "emulation"
at build time.
ARM64:
- LPA2 support, adding 52bit IPA/PA capability for 4kB and 16kB
base granule sizes. Branch shared with the arm64 tree.
- Large Fine-Grained Trap rework, bringing some sanity to the
feature, although there is more to come. This comes with
a prefix branch shared with the arm64 tree.
- Some additional Nested Virtualization groundwork, mostly
introducing the NV2 VNCR support and retargetting the NV
support to that version of the architecture.
- A small set of vgic fixes and associated cleanups.
Loongarch:
- Optimization for memslot hugepage checking
- Cleanup and fix some HW/SW timer issues
- Add LSX/LASX (128bit/256bit SIMD) support
RISC-V:
- KVM_GET_REG_LIST improvement for vector registers
- Generate ISA extension reg_list using macros in get-reg-list selftest
- Support for reporting steal time along with selftest
s390:
- Bugfixes
Selftests:
- Fix an annoying goof where the NX hugepage test prints out garbage
instead of the magic token needed to run the test.
- Fix build errors when a header is delete/moved due to a missing flag
in the Makefile.
- Detect if KVM bugged/killed a selftest's VM and print out a helpful
message instead of complaining that a random ioctl() failed.
- Annotate the guest printf/assert helpers with __printf(), and fix the
various bugs that were lurking due to lack of said annotation.
There are two non-KVM patches buried in the middle of guest_memfd support:
fs: Rename anon_inode_getfile_secure() and anon_inode_getfd_secure()
mm: Add AS_UNMOVABLE to mark mapping as completely unmovable
The first is small and mostly suggested-by Christian Brauner; the second
a bit less so but it was written by an mm person (Vlastimil Babka).

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the usual miscellaneous features, cleanups, and fixes
for vfs and individual fses.
Features:
- Add Jan Kara as VFS reviewer
- Show correct device and inode numbers in proc/<pid>/maps for vma
files on stacked filesystems. This is now easily doable thanks to
the backing file work from the last cycles. This comes with
selftests
Cleanups:
- Remove a redundant might_sleep() from wait_on_inode()
- Initialize pointer with NULL, not 0
- Clarify comment on access_override_creds()
- Rework and simplify eventfd_signal() and eventfd_signal_mask()
helpers
- Process aio completions in batches to avoid needless wakeups
- Completely decouple struct mnt_idmap from namespaces. We now only
keep the actual idmapping around and don't stash references to
namespaces
- Reformat maintainer entries to indicate that a given subsystem
belongs to fs/
- Simplify fput() for files that were never opened
- Get rid of various pointless file helpers
- Rename various file helpers
- Rename struct file members after SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU switch from
last cycle
- Make relatime_need_update() return bool
- Use GFP_KERNEL instead of GFP_USER when allocating superblocks
- Replace deprecated ida_simple_*() calls with their current ida_*()
counterparts
Fixes:
- Fix comments on user namespace id mapping helpers. They aren't
kernel doc comments so they shouldn't be using /**
- s/Retuns/Returns/g in various places
- Add missing parameter documentation on can_move_mount_beneath()
- Rename i_mapping->private_data to i_mapping->i_private_data
- Fix a false-positive lockdep warning in pipe_write() for watch
queues
- Improve __fget_files_rcu() code generation to improve performance
- Only notify writer that pipe resizing has finished after setting
pipe->max_usage otherwise writers are never notified that the pipe
has been resized and hang
- Fix some kernel docs in hfsplus
- s/passs/pass/g in various places
- Fix kernel docs in ntfs
- Fix kcalloc() arguments order reported by gcc 14
- Fix uninitialized value in reiserfs"

hugetlb rmap handling differs quite a lot from "ordinary" rmap code. For
example, hugetlb currently only supports entire mappings, and treats any
mapping as mapped using a single "logical PTE". Let's move it out of the
way so we can overhaul our "ordinary" rmap. implementation/interface.
Right now we're using page_dup_file_rmap() in some cases where "ordinary"
rmap code would have used page_add_file_rmap(). So let's introduce and
use hugetlb_add_file_rmap() instead. We won't be adding a
"hugetlb_dup_file_rmap()" functon for the fork() case, as it would be
doing the same: "dup" is just an optimization for "add".
What remains is a single page_dup_file_rmap() call in fork() code.
Add sanity checks that we end up with the right folios in the right
functions.

Patch series "mm/rmap: interface overhaul", v2.
This series overhauls the rmap interface, to get rid of the "bool
compound" / RMAP_COMPOUND parameter with the goal of making the interface
less error prone, more future proof, and more natural to extend to
"batching". Also, this converts the interface to always consume
folio+subpage, which speeds up operations on large folios.
Further, this series adds PTE-batching variants for 4 rmap functions,
whereby only folio_add_anon_rmap_ptes() is used for batching in this
series when PTE-remapping a PMD-mapped THP. folio_remove_rmap_ptes(),
folio_try_dup_anon_rmap_ptes() and folio_dup_file_rmap_ptes() will soon
come in handy[1,2].
This series performs a lot of folio conversion along the way. Most of the
added LOC in the diff are only due to documentation.
As we're moving to a pte/pmd interface where we clearly express the
mapping granularity we are dealing with, we first get the remainder of
hugetlb out of the way, as it is special and expected to remain special:
it treats everything as a "single logical PTE" and only currently allows
entire mappings.
Even if we'd ever support partial mappings, I strongly assume the
interface and implementation will still differ heavily: hopefull we can
avoid working on subpages/subpage mapcounts completely and only add a
"count" parameter for them to enable batching.
New (extended) hugetlb interface that operates on entire folio:
* hugetlb_add_new_anon_rmap() -> Already existed
* hugetlb_add_anon_rmap() -> Already existed
* hugetlb_try_dup_anon_rmap()
* hugetlb_try_share_anon_rmap()
* hugetlb_add_file_rmap()
* hugetlb_remove_rmap()
New "ordinary" interface for small folios / THP::
* folio_add_new_anon_rmap() -> Already existed
* folio_add_anon_rmap_[pte|ptes|pmd]()
* folio_try_dup_anon_rmap_[pte|ptes|pmd]()
* folio_try_share_anon_rmap_[pte|pmd]()
* folio_add_file_rmap_[pte|ptes|pmd]()
* folio_dup_file_rmap_[pte|ptes|pmd]()
* folio_remove_rmap_[pte|ptes|pmd]()
folio_add_new_anon_rmap() will always map at the largest granularity
possible (currently, a single PMD to cover a PMD-sized THP). Could be
extended if ever required.
In the future, we might want "_pud" variants and eventually "_pmds"
variants for batching.
I ran some simple microbenchmarks on an Intel(R) Xeon(R) Silver 4210R:
measuring munmap(), fork(), cow, MADV_DONTNEED on each PTE ... and PTE
remapping PMD-mapped THPs on 1 GiB of memory.
For small folios, there is barely a change (< 1% improvement for me).
For PTE-mapped THP:
* PTE-remapping a PMD-mapped THP is more than 10% faster.
* fork() is more than 4% faster.
* MADV_DONTNEED is 2% faster
* COW when writing only a single byte on a COW-shared PTE is 1% faster
* munmap() barely changes (< 1%).

This patch (of 40):
Let's just call it "hugetlb_".
Yes, it's all already inconsistent and confusing because we have a lot of
"hugepage_" functions for legacy reasons. But "hugetlb" cannot possibly
be confused with transparent huge pages, and it matches "hugetlb.c" and
"folio_test_hugetlb()". So let's minimize confusion in rmap code.

After analyzing the vmcore, I found this issue is caused by page migration.
The scenario is that, one thread is doing page migration, and we will use the
target page's ->mapping field to save 'anon_vma' pointer between page unmap and
page move, and now the target page is locked and refcount is 1.
Currently, there is another stress-ng thread performing memory hotplug,
attempting to offline the target page that is being migrated. It discovers that
the refcount of this target page is 1, preventing the offline operation, thus
proceeding to dump the page. However, page_mapping() of the target page may
return an incorrect file mapping to crash the system in dump_mapping(), since
the target page->mapping only saves 'anon_vma' pointer without setting
PAGE_MAPPING_ANON flag.
There are seveval ways to fix this issue:
(1) Setting the PAGE_MAPPING_ANON flag for target page's ->mapping when saving
'anon_vma', but this can confuse PageAnon() for PFN walkers, since the target
page has not built mappings yet.
(2) Getting the page lock to call page_mapping() in __dump_page() to avoid crashing
the system, however, there are still some PFN walkers that call page_mapping()
without holding the page lock, such as compaction.
(3) Using target page->private field to save the 'anon_vma' pointer and 2 bits
page state, just as page->mapping records an anonymous page, which can remove
the page_mapping() impact for PFN walkers and also seems a simple way.
So I choose option 3 to fix this issue, and this can also fix other potential
issues for PFN walkers, such as compaction.

Large folios occupy N consecutive entries in the swap cache instead of
using multi-index entries like the page cache. However, if a large folio
is re-added to the LRU list, it can be migrated. The migration code was
not aware of the difference between the swap cache and the page cache and
assumed that a single xas_store() would be sufficient.
This leaves potentially many stale pointers to the now-migrated folio in
the swap cache, which can lead to almost arbitrary data corruption in the
future. This can also manifest as infinite loops with the RCU read lock
held.

Introduce several new KVM uAPIs to ultimately create a guest-first memory
subsystem within KVM, a.k.a. guest_memfd. Guest-first memory allows KVM
to provide features, enhancements, and optimizations that are kludgly
or outright impossible to implement in a generic memory subsystem.
The core KVM ioctl() for guest_memfd is KVM_CREATE_GUEST_MEMFD, which
similar to the generic memfd_create(), creates an anonymous file and
returns a file descriptor that refers to it. Again like "regular"
memfd files, guest_memfd files live in RAM, have volatile storage,
and are automatically released when the last reference is dropped.
The key differences between memfd files (and every other memory subystem)
is that guest_memfd files are bound to their owning virtual machine,
cannot be mapped, read, or written by userspace, and cannot be resized.
guest_memfd files do however support PUNCH_HOLE, which can be used to
convert a guest memory area between the shared and guest-private states.
A second KVM ioctl(), KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES, allows userspace to
specify attributes for a given page of guest memory. In the long term,
it will likely be extended to allow userspace to specify per-gfn RWX
protections, including allowing memory to be writable in the guest
without it also being writable in host userspace.
The immediate and driving use case for guest_memfd are Confidential
(CoCo) VMs, specifically AMD's SEV-SNP, Intel's TDX, and KVM's own pKVM.
For such use cases, being able to map memory into KVM guests without
requiring said memory to be mapped into the host is a hard requirement.
While SEV+ and TDX prevent untrusted software from reading guest private
data by encrypting guest memory, pKVM provides confidentiality and
integrity *without* relying on memory encryption. In addition, with
SEV-SNP and especially TDX, accessing guest private memory can be fatal
to the host, i.e. KVM must be prevent host userspace from accessing
guest memory irrespective of hardware behavior.
Long term, guest_memfd may be useful for use cases beyond CoCo VMs,
for example hardening userspace against unintentional accesses to guest
memory. As mentioned earlier, KVM's ABI uses userspace VMA protections to
define the allow guest protection (with an exception granted to mapping
guest memory executable), and similarly KVM currently requires the guest
mapping size to be a strict subset of the host userspace mapping size.
Decoupling the mappings sizes would allow userspace to precisely map
only what is needed and with the required permissions, without impacting
guest performance.
A guest-first memory subsystem also provides clearer line of sight to
things like a dedicated memory pool (for slice-of-hardware VMs) and
elimination of "struct page" (for offload setups where userspace _never_
needs to DMA from or into guest memory).
guest_memfd is the result of 3+ years of development and exploration;
taking on memory management responsibilities in KVM was not the first,
second, or even third choice for supporting CoCo VMs. But after many
failed attempts to avoid KVM-specific backing memory, and looking at
where things ended up, it is quite clear that of all approaches tried,
guest_memfd is the simplest, most robust, and most extensible, and the
right thing to do for KVM and the kernel at-large.
The "development cycle" for this version is going to be very short;
ideally, next week I will merge it as is in kvm/next, taking this through
the KVM tree for 6.8 immediately after the end of the merge window.
The series is still based on 6.6 (plus KVM changes for 6.7) so it
will require a small fixup for changes to get_file_rcu() introduced in
6.7 by commit 0ede61d858 ("file: convert to SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU").
The fixup will be done as part of the merge commit, and most of the text
above will become the commit message for the merge.
Pending post-merge work includes:
- hugepage support
- looking into using the restrictedmem framework for guest memory
- introducing a testing mechanism to poison memory, possibly using
the same memory attributes introduced here
- SNP and TDX support
There are two non-KVM patches buried in the middle of this series:
fs: Rename anon_inode_getfile_secure() and anon_inode_getfd_secure()
mm: Add AS_UNMOVABLE to mark mapping as completely unmovable
The first is small and mostly suggested-by Christian Brauner; the second
a bit less so but it was written by an mm person (Vlastimil Babka).
Add an "unmovable" flag for mappings that cannot be migrated under any
circumstance. KVM will use the flag for its upcoming GUEST_MEMFD support,
which will not support compaction/migration, at least not in the
foreseeable future.
Test AS_UNMOVABLE under folio lock as already done for the async
compaction/dirty folio case, as the mapping can be removed by truncation
while compaction is running. To avoid having to lock every folio with a
mapping, assume/require that unmovable mappings are also unevictable, and
have mapping_set_unmovable() also set AS_UNEVICTABLE.

When doing compaction, I found the lru_add_drain() is an obvious hotspot
when migrating pages. The distribution of this hotspot is as follows:
- 18.75% compact_zone
- 17.39% migrate_pages
- 13.79% migrate_pages_batch
- 11.66% migrate_folio_move
- 7.02% lru_add_drain
+ 7.02% lru_add_drain_cpu
+ 3.00% move_to_new_folio
1.23% rmap_walk
+ 1.92% migrate_folio_unmap
+ 3.20% migrate_pages_sync
+ 0.90% isolate_migratepages
The lru_add_drain() was added by commit c3096e6782 ("mm/migrate:
__unmap_and_move() push good newpage to LRU") to drain the newpage to LRU
immediately, to help to build up the correct newpage->mlock_count in
remove_migration_ptes() for mlocked pages. However, if there are no
mlocked pages are migrating, then we can avoid this lru drain operation,
especailly for the heavy concurrent scenarios.
So we can record the source pages' mlocked status in
migrate_folio_unmap(), and only drain the lru list when the mlocked status
is set in migrate_folio_move().
In addition, the page was already isolated from lru when migrating, so
checking the mlocked status is stable by folio_test_mlocked() in
migrate_folio_unmap().
After this patch, I can see the hotpot of the lru_add_drain() is gone:
- 9.41% migrate_pages_batch
- 6.15% migrate_folio_move
- 3.64% move_to_new_folio
+ 1.80% migrate_folio_extra
+ 1.70% buffer_migrate_folio
+ 1.41% rmap_walk
+ 0.62% folio_add_lru
+ 3.07% migrate_folio_unmap
Meanwhile, the compaction latency shows some improvements when running

nr_failed was missing the large folio splits from migrate_pages_batch()
and can cause a mismatch between migrate_pages() return value and the
number of not migrated pages, i.e., when the return value of
migrate_pages() is 0, there are still pages left in the from page list.
It will happen when a non-PMD THP large folio fails to migrate due to
-ENOMEM and is split successfully but not all the split pages are not
migrated, migrate_pages_batch() would return non-zero, but
astats.nr_thp_split = 0. nr_failed would be 0 and returned to the caller
of migrate_pages(), but the not migrated pages are left in the from page
list without being added back to LRU lists.
Fix it by adding a new nr_split counter for large folio splits and adding
it to nr_failed in migrate_page_sync() after migrate_pages_batch() is
done.

Currently, hugetlb memory usage is not acounted for in the memory
controller, which could lead to memory overprotection for cgroups with
hugetlb-backed memory. This has been observed in our production system.
For instance, here is one of our usecases: suppose there are two 32G
containers. The machine is booted with hugetlb_cma=6G, and each container
may or may not use up to 3 gigantic page, depending on the workload within
it. The rest is anon, cache, slab, etc. We can set the hugetlb cgroup
limit of each cgroup to 3G to enforce hugetlb fairness. But it is very
difficult to configure memory.max to keep overall consumption, including
anon, cache, slab etc. fair.
What we have had to resort to is to constantly poll hugetlb usage and
readjust memory.max. Similar procedure is done to other memory limits
(memory.low for e.g). However, this is rather cumbersome and buggy.
Furthermore, when there is a delay in memory limits correction, (for e.g
when hugetlb usage changes within consecutive runs of the userspace
agent), the system could be in an over/underprotected state.
This patch rectifies this issue by charging the memcg when the hugetlb
folio is utilized, and uncharging when the folio is freed (analogous to
the hugetlb controller). Note that we do not charge when the folio is
allocated to the hugetlb pool, because at this point it is not owned by
any memcg.
Some caveats to consider:
* This feature is only available on cgroup v2.
* There is no hugetlb pool management involved in the memory
controller. As stated above, hugetlb folios are only charged towards
the memory controller when it is used. Host overcommit management
has to consider it when configuring hard limits.
* Failure to charge towards the memcg results in SIGBUS. This could
happen even if the hugetlb pool still has pages (but the cgroup
limit is hit and reclaim attempt fails).
* When this feature is enabled, hugetlb pages contribute to memory
reclaim protection. low, min limits tuning must take into account
hugetlb memory.
* Hugetlb pages utilized while this option is not selected will not
be tracked by the memory controller (even if cgroup v2 is remounted
later on).

Remove special cased hugetlb handling code within the page cache by
changing the granularity of ->index to the base page size rather than the
huge page size. The motivation of this patch is to reduce complexity
within the filemap code while also increasing performance by removing
branches that are evaluated on every page cache lookup.
To support the change in index, new wrappers for hugetlb page cache
interactions are added. These wrappers perform the conversion to a linear
index which is now expected by the page cache for huge pages.
========================= PERFORMANCE ======================================
Perf was used to check the performance differences after the patch.
Overall the performance is similar to mainline with a very small larger
overhead that occurs in __filemap_add_folio() and
hugetlb_add_to_page_cache(). This is because of the larger overhead that
occurs in xa_load() and xa_store() as the xarray is now using more entries
to store hugetlb folios in the page cache.

do_pages_move does not handle compat pointers for the page list.
correctly. Add in_compat_syscall check and appropriate get_user fetch
when iterating the page list.
It makes the syscall in compat mode (32-bit userspace, 64-bit kernel)
work the same way as the native 32-bit syscall again, restoring the
behavior before my broken commit 5b1b561ba7 ("mm: simplify
compat_sys_move_pages").
More specifically, my patch moved the parsing of the 'pages' array from
the main entry point into do_pages_stat(), which left the syscall
working correctly for the 'stat' operation (nodes = NULL), while the
'move' operation (nodes != NULL) is now missing the conversion and
interprets 'pages' as an array of 64-bit pointers instead of the
intended 32-bit userspace pointers.
It is possible that nobody noticed this bug because the few
applications that actually call move_pages are unlikely to run in
compat mode because of their large memory requirements, but this
clearly fixes a user-visible regression and should have been caught by
ltp.

There is some different between hugeTLB and THP behave when passed the
address of a tail page, for THP, it will migrate the entire THP page, but
for HugeTLB, it will return -EACCES, or -ENOENT before commit e66f17ff71
("mm/hugetlb: take page table lock in follow_huge_pmd()"),
-EACCES The page is mapped by multiple processes and can be moved
only if MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL is specified.
-ENOENT The page is not present.
But when check manual[1], both of the two errnos are not suitable, it is
better to keep the same behave between hugetlb and THP when passed the
address of a tail page, so let's just remove the PageHead() check for
HugeTLB.

Patch series "mm: migrate: more folio conversion and unification", v3.
Convert more migrate functions to use a folio, it is also a preparation
for large folio migration support when balancing numa.
This patch (of 8):
The assert VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(order && !PageTransHuge(page), page) is not very
useful,
1) for a tail/base page, order = 0, for a head page, the order > 0 &&
PageTransHuge() is true
2) there is a PageCompound() check and only base page is handled in
do_numa_page(), and do_huge_pmd_numa_page() only handle PMD-mapped
THP
3) even though the page is a tail page, isolate_lru_page() will post
a warning, and fail to isolate the page
4) if large folio/pte-mapped THP migration supported in the future,
we could migrate the entire folio if numa fault on a tail page
so just remove the check.

Patch series "Fix set_huge_pte_at() panic on arm64", v2.
This series fixes a bug in arm64's implementation of set_huge_pte_at(),
which can result in an unprivileged user causing a kernel panic. The
problem was triggered when running the new uffd poison mm selftest for
HUGETLB memory. This test (and the uffd poison feature) was merged for
v6.5-rc7.
Ideally, I'd like to get this fix in for v6.6 and I've cc'ed stable
(correctly this time) to get it backported to v6.5, where the issue first
showed up.
Description of Bug
==================
arm64's huge pte implementation supports multiple huge page sizes, some of
which are implemented in the page table with multiple contiguous entries.
So set_huge_pte_at() needs to work out how big the logical pte is, so that
it can also work out how many physical ptes (or pmds) need to be written.
It previously did this by grabbing the folio out of the pte and querying
its size.
However, there are cases when the pte being set is actually a swap entry.
But this also used to work fine, because for huge ptes, we only ever saw
migration entries and hwpoison entries. And both of these types of swap
entries have a PFN embedded, so the code would grab that and everything
still worked out.
But over time, more calls to set_huge_pte_at() have been added that set
swap entry types that do not embed a PFN. And this causes the code to go
bang. The triggering case is for the uffd poison test, commit
99aa77215a ("selftests/mm: add uffd unit test for UFFDIO_POISON"), which
causes a PTE_MARKER_POISONED swap entry to be set, coutesey of commit
8a13897fb0 ("mm: userfaultfd: support UFFDIO_POISON for hugetlbfs") -
added in v6.5-rc7. Although review shows that there are other call sites
that set PTE_MARKER_UFFD_WP (which also has no PFN), these don't trigger
on arm64 because arm64 doesn't support UFFD WP.
If CONFIG_DEBUG_VM is enabled, we do at least get a BUG(), but otherwise,
it will dereference a bad pointer in page_folio():
static inline struct folio *hugetlb_swap_entry_to_folio(swp_entry_t entry)
{
VM_BUG_ON(!is_migration_entry(entry) && !is_hwpoison_entry(entry));
return page_folio(pfn_to_page(swp_offset_pfn(entry)));
}
Fix
===
The simplest fix would have been to revert the dodgy cleanup commit
18f3962953 ("mm: hugetlb: kill set_huge_swap_pte_at()"), but since
things have moved on, this would have required an audit of all the new
set_huge_pte_at() call sites to see if they should be converted to
set_huge_swap_pte_at(). As per the original intent of the change, it
would also leave us open to future bugs when people invariably get it
wrong and call the wrong helper.
So instead, I've added a huge page size parameter to set_huge_pte_at().
This means that the arm64 code has the size in all cases. It's a bigger
change, due to needing to touch the arches that implement the function,
but it is entirely mechanical, so in my view, low risk.
I've compile-tested all touched arches; arm64, parisc, powerpc, riscv,
s390, sparc (and additionally x86_64). I've additionally booted and run
mm selftests against arm64, where I observe the uffd poison test is fixed,
and there are no other regressions.
This patch (of 2):
In order to fix a bug, arm64 needs to be told the size of the huge page
for which the pte is being set in set_huge_pte_at(). Provide for this by
adding an `unsigned long sz` parameter to the function. This follows the
same pattern as huge_pte_clear().
This commit makes the required interface modifications to the core mm as
well as all arches that implement this function (arm64, parisc, powerpc,
riscv, s390, sparc). The actual arm64 bug will be fixed in a separate
commit.
No behavioral changes intended.

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"

Patch series "mm, netfs, fscache: Stop read optimisation when folio
removed from pagecache", v7.
This fixes an optimisation in fscache whereby we don't read from the cache
for a particular file until we know that there's data there that we don't
have in the pagecache. The problem is that I'm no longer using PG_fscache
(aka PG_private_2) to indicate that the page is cached and so I don't get
a notification when a cached page is dropped from the pagecache.
The first patch merges some folio_has_private() and
filemap_release_folio() pairs and introduces a helper,
folio_needs_release(), to indicate if a release is required.
The second patch is the actual fix. Following Willy's suggestions[1], it
adds an AS_RELEASE_ALWAYS flag to an address_space that will make
filemap_release_folio() always call ->release_folio(), even if
PG_private/PG_private_2 aren't set. folio_needs_release() is altered to
add a check for this.
This patch (of 2):
Make filemap_release_folio() check folio_has_private(). Then, in most
cases, where a call to folio_has_private() is immediately followed by a
call to filemap_release_folio(), we can get rid of the test in the pair.
There are a couple of sites in mm/vscan.c that this can't so easily be
done. In shrink_folio_list(), there are actually three cases (something
different is done for incompletely invalidated buffers), but
filemap_release_folio() elides two of them.
In shrink_active_list(), we don't have have the folio lock yet, so the
check allows us to avoid locking the page unnecessarily.
A wrapper function to check if a folio needs release is provided for those
places that still need to do it in the mm/ directory. This will acquire
additional parts to the condition in a future patch.
After this, the only remaining caller of folio_has_private() outside of
mm/ is a check in fuse.

Add a new config option that controls building the buffer_head code, and
select it from all file systems and stacking drivers that need it.
For the block device nodes and alternative iomap based buffered I/O path
is provided when buffer_head support is not enabled, and iomap needs a
a small tweak to define the IOMAP_F_BUFFER_HEAD flag to 0 to not call
into the buffer_head code when it doesn't exist.
Otherwise this is just Kconfig and ifdef changes.

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

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

Following the examples of nearby code, various functions can just give up
if pte_offset_map() or pte_offset_map_lock() fails. And there's no need
for a preliminary pmd_trans_unstable() or other such check, since such
cases are now safely handled inside.

migration_entry_wait_on_locked() does not need to take a mapped pte
pointer, its callers can do the unmap first. Annotate it with
__releases(ptl) to reduce sparse warnings.
Fold __migration_entry_wait_huge() into migration_entry_wait_huge(). Fold
__migration_entry_wait() into migration_entry_wait(), preferring the
tighter pte_offset_map_lock() to pte_offset_map() and pte_lockptr().

After recent changes to the retrying and failure counting in
migrate_pages_batch(), it was found that it's unnecessary to count
retrying and failure for normal, large, and THP folios separately.
Because we don't use retrying and failure number of large folios directly.
So, in this patch, we simplified retrying and failure counting of large
folios via counting retrying and failure of normal and large folios
together. This results in the reduced line number.
Previously, in migrate_pages_batch we need to track whether the source
folio is large/THP before splitting. So is_large is used to cache
folio_test_large() result. Now, we don't need that variable any more
because we don't count retrying and failure of large folios (only counting
that of THP folios). So, in this patch, is_large is removed to simplify
the code.
This is just code cleanup, no functionality changes are expected.

The MIGRATE_SYNC_LIGHT mode is intended to block for things that will
finish quickly but not for things that will take a long time. Exactly how
long is too long is not well defined, but waits of tens of milliseconds is
likely non-ideal.
When putting a Chromebook under memory pressure (opening over 90 tabs on a
4GB machine) it was fairly easy to see delays waiting for some locks in
the kcompactd code path of > 100 ms. While the laptop wasn't amazingly
usable in this state, it was still limping along and this state isn't
something artificial. Sometimes we simply end up with a lot of memory
pressure.
Putting the same Chromebook under memory pressure while it was running
Android apps (though not stressing them) showed a much worse result (NOTE:
this was on a older kernel but the codepaths here are similar). Android
apps on ChromeOS currently run from a 128K-block, zlib-compressed,
loopback-mounted squashfs disk. If we get a page fault from something
backed by the squashfs filesystem we could end up holding a folio lock
while reading enough from disk to decompress 128K (and then decompressing
it using the somewhat slow zlib algorithms). That reading goes through
the ext4 subsystem (because it's a loopback mount) before eventually
ending up in the block subsystem. This extra jaunt adds extra overhead.
Without much work I could see cases where we ended up blocked on a folio
lock for over a second. With more extreme memory pressure I could see up
to 25 seconds.
We considered adding a timeout in the case of MIGRATE_SYNC_LIGHT for the
two locks that were seen to be slow [1] and that generated much
discussion. After discussion, it was decided that we should avoid waiting
for the two locks during MIGRATE_SYNC_LIGHT if they were being held for
IO. We'll continue with the unbounded wait for the more full SYNC modes.
With this change, I couldn't see any slow waits on these locks with my
previous testcases.
NOTE: The reason I stated digging into this originally isn't because some
benchmark had gone awry, but because we've received in-the-field crash
reports where we have a hung task waiting on the page lock (which is the
equivalent code path on old kernels). While the root cause of those
crashes is likely unrelated and won't be fixed by this patch, analyzing
those crash reports did point out these very long waits seemed like
something good to fix. With this patch we should no longer hang waiting
on these locks, but presumably the system will still be in a bad shape and
hang somewhere else.

Merge tag 'x86_mm_for_6.4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86 LAM (Linear Address Masking) support from Dave Hansen:
"Add support for the new Linear Address Masking CPU feature.
This is similar to ARM's Top Byte Ignore and allows userspace to store
metadata in some bits of pointers without masking it out before use"

Staring at the comment "Recheck VMA as permissions can change since
migration started" in remove_migration_pte() can result in confusion,
because if the source PTE/PMD indicates write permissions, then there
should be no need to check VMA write permissions when restoring migration
entries or PTE-mapping a PMD.
Commit d3cb8bf608 ("mm: migrate: Close race between migration completion
and mprotect") introduced the maybe_mkwrite() handling in
remove_migration_pte() in 2014, stating that a race between mprotect() and
migration finishing would be possible, and that we could end up with a
writable PTE that should be readable.
However, mprotect() code first updates vma->vm_flags / vma->vm_page_prot
and then walks the page tables to (a) set all present writable PTEs to
read-only and (b) convert all writable migration entries to readable
migration entries. While walking the page tables and modifying the
entries, migration code has to grab the PT locks to synchronize against
concurrent page table modifications.
Assuming migration would find a writable migration entry (while holding
the PT lock) and replace it with a writable present PTE, surely mprotect()
code didn't stumble over the writable migration entry yet (converting it
into a readable migration entry) and would instead wait for the PT lock to
convert the now present writable PTE into a read-only PTE. As mprotect()
didn't finish yet, the behavior is just like migration didn't happen: a
writable PTE will be converted to a read-only PTE.
So it's fine to rely on the writability information in the source PTE/PMD
and not recheck against the VMA as long as we're holding the PT lock to
synchronize with anyone who concurrently wants to downgrade write
permissions (like mprotect()) by first adjusting vma->vm_flags /
vma->vm_page_prot to then walk over the page tables to adjust the page
table entries.
Running test cases that should reveal such races -- mprotect(PROT_READ)
racing with page migration or THP splitting -- for multiple hours did not
reveal an issue with this cleanup.
