Patch series "Rearrange batched folio freeing", v3.
Other than the obvious "remove calls to compound_head" changes, the
fundamental belief here is that iterating a linked list is much slower
than iterating an array (5-15x slower in my testing). There's also an
associated belief that since we iterate the batch of folios three times,
we do better when the array is small (ie 15 entries) than we do with a
batch that is hundreds of entries long, which only gives us the
opportunity for the first pages to fall out of cache by the time we get to
the end.
It is possible we should increase the size of folio_batch. Hopefully the
bots let us know if this introduces any performance regressions.
This patch (of 3):
By making release_pages() call folios_put(), we can get rid of the calls
to compound_head() for the callers that already know they have folios. We
can also get rid of the lock_batch tracking as we know the size of the
batch is limited by folio_batch. This does reduce the maximum number of
pages for which the lruvec lock is held, from SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX (32) to
PAGEVEC_SIZE (15). I do not expect this to make a significant difference,
but if it does, we can increase PAGEVEC_SIZE to 31.

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.
So let's introduce and use hugetlb_try_dup_anon_rmap() to make all hugetlb
handling use dedicated hugetlb_* rmap functions.
Add sanity checks that we end up with the right folios in the right
functions.
Note that is_device_private_page() does not apply to hugetlb.

After converting selinux to VMA heap check helper, the gcl triggers an
execheap SELinux denial, which is caused by a changed logic check.
Previously selinux only checked that the VMA range was within the VMA heap
range, and the implementation checks the intersection between the two
ranges, but the corner case (vm_end=start_brk, brk=vm_start) isn't handled
correctly.
Since commit 11250fd12e ("mm: factor out VMA stack and heap checks") was
only a function extraction, it seems that the issue was introduced by
commit 0db0c01b53 ("procfs: fix /proc/<pid>/maps heap check"). Let's
fix above corner cases, meanwhile, correct the wrong indentation of the
stack and heap check helpers.

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.

Now, if we suddenly remove a PMEM device(by calling unbind) which
contains FSDAX while programs are still accessing data in this device,
e.g.:
```
$FSSTRESS_PROG -d $SCRATCH_MNT -n 99999 -p 4 &
# $FSX_PROG -N 1000000 -o 8192 -l 500000 $SCRATCH_MNT/t001 &
echo "pfn1.1" > /sys/bus/nd/drivers/nd_pmem/unbind
```
it could come into an unacceptable state:
1. device has gone but mount point still exists, and umount will fail
with "target is busy"
2. programs will hang and cannot be killed
3. may crash with NULL pointer dereference
To fix this, we introduce a MF_MEM_PRE_REMOVE flag to let it know that we
are going to remove the whole device, and make sure all related processes
could be notified so that they could end up gracefully.
This patch is inspired by Dan's "mm, dax, pmem: Introduce
dev_pagemap_failure()"[1]. With the help of dax_holder and
->notify_failure() mechanism, the pmem driver is able to ask filesystem
on it to unmap all files in use, and notify processes who are using
those files.
Call trace:
trigger unbind
-> unbind_store()
-> ... (skip)
-> devres_release_all()
-> kill_dax()
-> dax_holder_notify_failure(dax_dev, 0, U64_MAX, MF_MEM_PRE_REMOVE)
-> xfs_dax_notify_failure()
`-> freeze_super() // freeze (kernel call)
`-> do xfs rmap
` -> mf_dax_kill_procs()
` -> collect_procs_fsdax() // all associated processes
` -> unmap_and_kill()
` -> invalidate_inode_pages2_range() // drop file's cache
`-> thaw_super() // thaw (both kernel & user call)
Introduce MF_MEM_PRE_REMOVE to let filesystem know this is a remove
event. Use the exclusive freeze/thaw[2] to lock the filesystem to prevent
new dax mapping from being created. Do not shutdown filesystem directly
if configuration is not supported, or if failure range includes metadata
area. Make sure all files and processes(not only the current progress)
are handled correctly. Also drop the cache of associated files before
pmem is removed.

Merge tag 'execve-v6.7-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux
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.
- Clean up binfmt_elf_fdpic debug output (Greg Ungerer)

elf, uapi: Remove struct tag 'dynamic'
Shrink shmem's stack usage by eliminating the pseudo-vma from its folio
allocation. alloc_pages_mpol(gfp, order, pol, ilx, nid) becomes the
principal actor for passing mempolicy choice down to __alloc_pages(),
rather than vma_alloc_folio(gfp, order, vma, addr, hugepage).
vma_alloc_folio() and alloc_pages() remain, but as wrappers around
alloc_pages_mpol(). alloc_pages_bulk_*() untouched, except to provide the
additional args to policy_nodemask(), which subsumes policy_node().
Cleanup throughout, cutting out some unhelpful "helpers".
It would all be much simpler without MPOL_INTERLEAVE, but that adds a
dynamic to the constant mpol: complicated by v3.6 commit 09c231cb8b
("tmpfs: distribute interleave better across nodes"), which added ino bias
to the interleave, hidden from mm/mempolicy.c until this commit.
Hence "ilx" throughout, the "interleave index". Originally I thought it
could be done just with nid, but that's wrong: the nodemask may come from
the shared policy layer below a shmem vma, or it may come from the task
layer above a shmem vma; and without the final nodemask then nodeid cannot
be decided. And how ilx is applied depends also on page order.
The interleave index is almost always irrelevant unless MPOL_INTERLEAVE:
with one exception in alloc_pages_mpol(), where the NO_INTERLEAVE_INDEX
passed down from vma-less alloc_pages() is also used as hint not to use
THP-style hugepage allocation - to avoid the overhead of a hugepage arg
(though I don't understand why we never just added a GFP bit for THP - if
it actually needs a different allocation strategy from other pages of the
same order). vma_alloc_folio() still carries its hugepage arg here, but
it is not used, and should be removed when agreed.
get_vma_policy() no longer allows a NULL vma: over time I believe we've
eradicated all the places which used to need it e.g. swapoff and madvise
used to pass NULL vma to read_swap_cache_async(), but now know the vma.

The seal_check_future_write() function is called by shmem_mmap() or
hugetlbfs_file_mmap() to disallow any future writable mappings of an memfd
sealed this way.
The F_SEAL_WRITE flag is not checked here, as that is handled via the
mapping->i_mmap_writable mechanism and so any attempt at a mapping would
fail before this could be run.
However we intend to change this, meaning this check can be performed for
F_SEAL_WRITE mappings also.
The logic here is equally applicable to both flags, so update this
function to accommodate both and rename it accordingly.

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!

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.

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().

Patch series "various improvements to the GUP interface", v2.
A series of fixes to simplify and improve the GUP interface with an eye to
providing groundwork to future improvements:-
* __access_remote_vm() and access_remote_vm() are functionally identical,
so make the former static such that in future we can potentially change
the external-facing implementation details of this function.
* Extend is_valid_gup_args() to cover the missing FOLL_TOUCH case, and
simplify things by defining INTERNAL_GUP_FLAGS to check against.
* Adjust __get_user_pages_locked() to explicitly treat a failure to pin any
pages as an error in all circumstances other than FOLL_NOWAIT being
specified, bringing it in line with the nommu implementation of this
function.
* (With many thanks to Arnd who suggested this in the first instance)
Update get_user_page_vma_remote() to explicitly only return a page or an
error, simplifying the interface and avoiding the questionable
IS_ERR_OR_NULL() pattern.
This patch (of 4):
access_remote_vm() passes through parameters to __access_remote_vm()
directly, so remove the __access_remote_vm() function from mm.h and use
access_remote_vm() in the one caller that needs it (ptrace_access_vm()).
This allows future adjustments to the GUP-internal __access_remote_vm()
function while keeping the access_remote_vm() function stable.

Recently, we found that cross-die access to pagetable pages on ARM64
machines can cause performance fluctuations in our business. Currently,
there are no PMU events available to track this situation on our ARM64
machines, so accurate pagetable accounting can help to analyze this issue,
but now the PUD level pagetable accounting is missed.
So introduce pagetable_pud_ctor/dtor() to help to get accurate PUD
pagetable accounting, as well as converting the architectures which use
generic PUD pagetable allocation to add corresponding PUD pagetable
accounting. Moreover this patch will mark the PUD level pagetable with
PG_table flag, which will help to do sanity validation in
unpoison_memory().
On my testing machine, I can see more pagetables statistics after the patch
with page-types tool:

For the stack move happening in shift_arg_pages(), the move is happening
within the same VMA which spans the old and new ranges.
In case the aligned address happens to fall within that VMA, allow such
moves and don't abort the mremap alignment optimization.
In the regular non-stack mremap case, we cannot allow any such moves as
will end up destroying some part of the mapping (either the source of the
move, or part of the existing mapping). So just avoid it for stack moves.

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"

Remove the unnecessary encoding of page order into an enum and pass the
page order directly. That lets us get rid of pe_order().
The switch constructs have to be changed to if/else constructs to prevent
GCC from warning on builds with 3-level page tables where PMD_ORDER and
PUD_ORDER have the same value.
If you are looking at this commit because your driver stopped compiling,
look at the previous commit as well and audit your driver to be sure it
doesn't depend on mmap_lock being held in its ->huge_fault method.

set_pte_range() allows to setup page table entries for a specific
range. It takes advantage of batched rmap update for large folio.
It now takes care of calling update_mmu_cache_range().

Enable handle_userfault to operate under VMA lock by releasing VMA lock
instead of mmap_lock and retrying. Note that FAULT_FLAG_RETRY_NOWAIT
should never be used when handling faults under per-VMA lock protection
because that would break the assumption that lock is dropped on retry.

When page fault is handled under per-VMA lock protection, all swap page
faults are retried with mmap_lock because folio_lock_or_retry has to drop
and reacquire mmap_lock if folio could not be immediately locked. Follow
the same pattern as mmap_lock to drop per-VMA lock when waiting for folio
and retrying once folio is available.
With this obstacle removed, enable do_swap_page to operate under per-VMA
lock protection. Drivers implementing ops->migrate_to_ram might still
rely on mmap_lock, therefore we have to fall back to mmap_lock in that
particular case.
Note that the only time do_swap_page calls synchronous swap_readpage is
when SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO is set, which is only set for
QUEUE_FLAG_SYNCHRONOUS devices: brd, zram and nvdimms (both btt and pmem).
Therefore we don't sleep in this path, and there's no need to drop the
mmap or per-VMA lock.

Store the folio order in the low byte of the flags word in the first tail
page. This frees up the word that was being used to store the order and
dtor bytes previously.

Stored in the first tail page's flags, this flag replaces the destructor.
That removes the last of the destructors, so remove all references to
folio_dtor and compound_dtor.

We can use a bit in page[1].flags to indicate that this folio belongs to
hugetlb instead of using a value in page[1].dtors. That lets
folio_test_hugetlb() become an inline function like it should be. We can
also get rid of NULL_COMPOUND_DTOR.
