bb461ad8e6 coredump: fix race condition between mmget_not_zero()/get_task_mm() and core dumping
commit 04f5866e41 upstream.

The core dumping code has always run without holding the mmap_sem for
writing, despite that is the only way to ensure that the entire vma
layout will not change from under it.  Only using some signal
serialization on the processes belonging to the mm is not nearly enough.
This was pointed out earlier.  For example in Hugh's post from Jul 2017:

  https://lkml.kernel.org/r/alpine.LSU.2.11.1707191716030.2055@eggly.anvils

  "Not strictly relevant here, but a related note: I was very surprised
   to discover, only quite recently, how handle_mm_fault() may be called
   without down_read(mmap_sem) - when core dumping. That seems a
   misguided optimization to me, which would also be nice to correct"

In particular because the growsdown and growsup can move the
vm_start/vm_end the various loops the core dump does around the vma will
not be consistent if page faults can happen concurrently.

Pretty much all users calling mmget_not_zero()/get_task_mm() and then
taking the mmap_sem had the potential to introduce unexpected side
effects in the core dumping code.

Adding mmap_sem for writing around the ->core_dump invocation is a
viable long term fix, but it requires removing all copy user and page
faults and to replace them with get_dump_page() for all binary formats
which is not suitable as a short term fix.

For the time being this solution manually covers the places that can
confuse the core dump either by altering the vma layout or the vma flags
while it runs.  Once ->core_dump runs under mmap_sem for writing the
function mmget_still_valid() can be dropped.

Allowing mmap_sem protected sections to run in parallel with the
coredump provides some minor parallelism advantage to the swapoff code
(which seems to be safe enough by never mangling any vma field and can
keep doing swapins in parallel to the core dumping) and to some other
corner case.

In order to facilitate the backporting I added "Fixes: 86039bd3b4e6"
however the side effect of this same race condition in /proc/pid/mem
should be reproducible since before 2.6.12-rc2 so I couldn't add any
other "Fixes:" because there's no hash beyond the git genesis commit.

Because find_extend_vma() is the only location outside of the process
context that could modify the "mm" structures under mmap_sem for
reading, by adding the mmget_still_valid() check to it, all other cases
that take the mmap_sem for reading don't need the new check after
mmget_not_zero()/get_task_mm().  The expand_stack() in page fault
context also doesn't need the new check, because all tasks under core
dumping are frozen.

716926f409 mm: proc: smaps_rollup: fix pss_locked calculation
commit 27dd768ed8 upstream.

The 'pss_locked' field of smaps_rollup was being calculated incorrectly.
It accumulated the current pss everytime a locked VMA was found.  Fix
that by adding to 'pss_locked' the same time as that of 'pss' if the vma
being walked is locked.

Here, vma->vm_file is NULL.  mss->check_shmem_swap should be false in that
case, however for smaps_rollup, smap_gather_stats() can set the flag true
for one vma and leave it true for subsequent vma's where it should be
false.

To fix, reset the check_shmem_swap flag to false.  There's also related
bug which sets mss->swap to shmem_swapped, which in the context of
smaps_rollup overwrites any value accumulated from previous vma's.  Fix
that as well.

Note that the report suggests a regression between 4.17.19 and 4.19-rc7,
which makes the 4.19 series ending with commit 258f669e7e ("mm:

9e1a1fc0cd mm: /proc/pid/pagemap: hide swap entries from unprivileged users
[ Upstream commit ab6ecf247a ]

In commit ab676b7d6f ("pagemap: do not leak physical addresses to
non-privileged userspace"), the /proc/PID/pagemap is restricted to be
readable only by CAP_SYS_ADMIN to address some security issue.

In commit 1c90308e7a ("pagemap: hide physical addresses from
non-privileged users"), the restriction is relieved to make
/proc/PID/pagemap readable, but hide the physical addresses for
non-privileged users.

But the swap entries are readable for non-privileged users too.  This
has some security issues.  For example, for page under migrating, the
swap entry has physical address information.  So, in this patch, the
swap entries are hided for non-privileged users too.

e6f011384c fs/proc/task_mmu.c: fix Locked field in /proc/pid/smaps*
commit e70cc2bd57 upstream.

Thomas reports:
 "While looking around in /proc on my v4.14.52 system I noticed that all
  processes got a lot of "Locked" memory in /proc/*/smaps. A lot more
  memory than a regular user can usually lock with mlock().

  Commit 493b0e9d94 (in v4.14-rc1) seems to have changed the behavior
  of "Locked".

  Before that commit the code was like this. Notice the VM_LOCKED check.

           (vma->vm_flags & VM_LOCKED) ?
                (unsigned long)(mss.pss >> (10 + PSS_SHIFT)) : 0);

  After that commit Locked is now the same as Pss:

	  (unsigned long)(mss->pss >> (10 + PSS_SHIFT)));

  This looks like a mistake."

Indeed, the commit has added mss->pss_locked with the correct value that
depends on VM_LOCKED, but forgot to actually use it.  Fix it.

a206007623 mm, pagemap: fix swap offset value for PMD migration entry
[ Upstream commit 88c28f2469 ]

The swap offset reported by /proc/<pid>/pagemap may be not correct for
PMD migration entries.  If addr passed into pagemap_pmd_range() isn't
aligned with PMD start address, the swap offset reported doesn't
reflect this.  And in the loop to report information of each sub-page,
the swap offset isn't increased accordingly as that for PFN.

This may happen after opening /proc/<pid>/pagemap and seeking to a page
whose address doesn't align with a PMD start address.  I have verified
this with a simple test program.

BTW: migration swap entries have PFN information, do we need to restrict
whether to show them?

b83d7e4323 mm, /proc/pid/pagemap: fix soft dirty marking for PMD migration entry
When the pagetable is walked in the implementation of /proc/<pid>/pagemap,
pmd_soft_dirty() is used for both the PMD huge page map and the PMD
migration entries.  That is wrong, pmd_swp_soft_dirty() should be used
for the PMD migration entries instead because the different page table
entry flag is used.

As a result, /proc/pid/pagemap may report incorrect soft dirty information
for PMD migration entries.

b24413180f License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
 - file had no licensing information it it.
 - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
 - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
 - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
 - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
   lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

 - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
   considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
   COPYING file license applied.

   For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0                                              11139

   and resulted in the first patch in this series.

   If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
   Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930

   and resulted in the second patch in this series.

 - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
   of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
   any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
   it (per prior point).  Results summary:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
   GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
   LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
   GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
   ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
   LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
   LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1

   and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

 - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
   the concluded license(s).

 - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
   license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
   licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

 - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
   resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
   which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

 - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
   confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

 - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
   the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
   in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
 - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
   license ids and scores
 - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
   files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
 - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
   was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
   SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

0ee931c4e3 mm: treewide: remove GFP_TEMPORARY allocation flag
GFP_TEMPORARY was introduced by commit e12ba74d8f ("Group short-lived
and reclaimable kernel allocations") along with __GFP_RECLAIMABLE.  It's
primary motivation was to allow users to tell that an allocation is
short lived and so the allocator can try to place such allocations close
together and prevent long term fragmentation.  As much as this sounds
like a reasonable semantic it becomes much less clear when to use the
highlevel GFP_TEMPORARY allocation flag.  How long is temporary? Can the
context holding that memory sleep? Can it take locks? It seems there is
no good answer for those questions.

The current implementation of GFP_TEMPORARY is basically GFP_KERNEL |
__GFP_RECLAIMABLE which in itself is tricky because basically none of
the existing caller provide a way to reclaim the allocated memory.  So
this is rather misleading and hard to evaluate for any benefits.

I have checked some random users and none of them has added the flag
with a specific justification.  I suspect most of them just copied from
other existing users and others just thought it might be a good idea to
use without any measuring.  This suggests that GFP_TEMPORARY just
motivates for cargo cult usage without any reasoning.

I believe that our gfp flags are quite complex already and especially
those with highlevel semantic should be clearly defined to prevent from
confusion and abuse.  Therefore I propose dropping GFP_TEMPORARY and
replace all existing users to simply use GFP_KERNEL.  Please note that
SLAB users with shrinkers will still get __GFP_RECLAIMABLE heuristic and
so they will be placed properly for memory fragmentation prevention.

I can see reasons we might want some gfp flag to reflect shorterm
allocations but I propose starting from a clear semantic definition and
only then add users with proper justification.

This was been brought up before LSF this year by Matthew [1] and it
turned out that GFP_TEMPORARY really doesn't have a clear semantic.  It
seems to be a heuristic without any measured advantage for most (if not
all) its current users.  The follow up discussion has revealed that
opinions on what might be temporary allocation differ a lot between
developers.  So rather than trying to tweak existing users into a
semantic which they haven't expected I propose to simply remove the flag
and start from scratch if we really need a semantic for short term
allocations.

1403830294 fs, proc: unconditional cond_resched when reading smaps
If there are large numbers of hugepages to iterate while reading
/proc/pid/smaps, the page walk never does cond_resched().  On archs
without split pmd locks, there can be significant and observable
contention on mm->page_table_lock which cause lengthy delays without
rescheduling.

Always reschedule in smaps_pte_range() if necessary since the pagewalk
iteration can be expensive.

5042db43cc mm/ZONE_DEVICE: new type of ZONE_DEVICE for unaddressable memory
HMM (heterogeneous memory management) need struct page to support
migration from system main memory to device memory.  Reasons for HMM and
migration to device memory is explained with HMM core patch.

This patch deals with device memory that is un-addressable memory (ie CPU
can not access it).  Hence we do not want those struct page to be manage
like regular memory.  That is why we extend ZONE_DEVICE to support
different types of memory.

A persistent memory type is define for existing user of ZONE_DEVICE and a
new device un-addressable type is added for the un-addressable memory
type.  There is a clear separation between what is expected from each
memory type and existing user of ZONE_DEVICE are un-affected by new
requirement and new use of the un-addressable type.  All specific code
path are protect with test against the memory type.

Because memory is un-addressable we use a new special swap type for when a
page is migrated to device memory (this reduces the number of maximum swap
file).

The main two additions beside memory type to ZONE_DEVICE is two callbacks.
First one, page_free() is call whenever page refcount reach 1 (which
means the page is free as ZONE_DEVICE page never reach a refcount of 0).
This allow device driver to manage its memory and associated struct page.

The second callback page_fault() happens when there is a CPU access to an
address that is back by a device page (which are un-addressable by the
CPU).  This callback is responsible to migrate the page back to system
main memory.  Device driver can not block migration back to system memory,
HMM make sure that such page can not be pin into device memory.

If device is in some error condition and can not migrate memory back then
a CPU page fault to device memory should end with SIGBUS.

84c3fc4e9c mm: thp: check pmd migration entry in common path
When THP migration is being used, memory management code needs to handle
pmd migration entries properly.  This patch uses !pmd_present() or
is_swap_pmd() (depending on whether pmd_none() needs separate code or
not) to check pmd migration entries at the places where a pmd entry is
present.

Since pmd-related code uses split_huge_page(), split_huge_pmd(),
pmd_trans_huge(), pmd_trans_unstable(), or
pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad(), this patch:

1. adds pmd migration entry split code in split_huge_pmd(),

2. takes care of pmd migration entries whenever pmd_trans_huge() is present,

3. makes pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() pmd migration entry aware.

Since split_huge_page() uses split_huge_pmd() and pmd_trans_unstable()
is equivalent to pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad(), we do not change
them.

Until this commit, a pmd entry should be:
1. pointing to a pte page,
2. is_swap_pmd(),
3. pmd_trans_huge(),
4. pmd_devmap(), or
5. pmd_none().

d2cd9ede6e mm,fork: introduce MADV_WIPEONFORK
Introduce MADV_WIPEONFORK semantics, which result in a VMA being empty
in the child process after fork.  This differs from MADV_DONTFORK in one
important way.

If a child process accesses memory that was MADV_WIPEONFORK, it will get
zeroes.  The address ranges are still valid, they are just empty.

If a child process accesses memory that was MADV_DONTFORK, it will get a
segmentation fault, since those address ranges are no longer valid in
the child after fork.

Since MADV_DONTFORK also seems to be used to allow very large programs
to fork in systems with strict memory overcommit restrictions, changing
the semantics of MADV_DONTFORK might break existing programs.

MADV_WIPEONFORK only works on private, anonymous VMAs.

The use case is libraries that store or cache information, and want to
know that they need to regenerate it in the child process after fork.

Examples of this would be:
 - systemd/pulseaudio API checks (fail after fork) (replacing a getpid
   check, which is too slow without a PID cache)
 - PKCS#11 API reinitialization check (mandated by specification)
 - glibc's upcoming PRNG (reseed after fork)
 - OpenSSL PRNG (reseed after fork)

The security benefits of a forking server having a re-inialized PRNG in
every child process are pretty obvious.  However, due to libraries
having all kinds of internal state, and programs getting compiled with
many different versions of each library, it is unreasonable to expect
calling programs to re-initialize everything manually after fork.

A further complication is the proliferation of clone flags, programs
bypassing glibc's functions to call clone directly, and programs calling
unshare, causing the glibc pthread_atfork hook to not get called.

It would be better to have the kernel take care of this automatically.

The patch also adds MADV_KEEPONFORK, to undo the effects of a prior
MADV_WIPEONFORK.

This is similar to the OpenBSD minherit syscall with MAP_INHERIT_ZERO:

493b0e9d94 mm: add /proc/pid/smaps_rollup
/proc/pid/smaps_rollup is a new proc file that improves the performance
of user programs that determine aggregate memory statistics (e.g., total
PSS) of a process.

Android regularly "samples" the memory usage of various processes in
order to balance its memory pool sizes.  This sampling process involves
opening /proc/pid/smaps and summing certain fields.  For very large
processes, sampling memory use this way can take several hundred
milliseconds, due mostly to the overhead of the seq_printf calls in
task_mmu.c.

smaps_rollup improves the situation.  It contains most of the fields of
/proc/pid/smaps, but instead of a set of fields for each VMA,
smaps_rollup instead contains one synthetic smaps-format entry
representing the whole process.  In the single smaps_rollup synthetic
entry, each field is the summation of the corresponding field in all of
the real-smaps VMAs.  Using a common format for smaps_rollup and smaps
allows userspace parsers to repurpose parsers meant for use with
non-rollup smaps for smaps_rollup, and it allows userspace to switch
between smaps_rollup and smaps at runtime (say, based on the
availability of smaps_rollup in a given kernel) with minimal fuss.

By using smaps_rollup instead of smaps, a caller can avoid the
significant overhead of formatting, reading, and parsing each of a large
process's potentially very numerous memory mappings.  For sampling
system_server's PSS in Android, we measured a 12x speedup, representing
a savings of several hundred milliseconds.

One alternative to a new per-process proc file would have been including
PSS information in /proc/pid/status.  We considered this option but
thought that PSS would be too expensive (by a few orders of magnitude)
to collect relative to what's already emitted as part of
/proc/pid/status, and slowing every user of /proc/pid/status for the
sake of readers that happen to want PSS feels wrong.

The code itself works by reusing the existing VMA-walking framework we
use for regular smaps generation and keeping the mem_size_stats
structure around between VMA walks instead of using a fresh one for each
VMA.  In this way, summation happens automatically.  We let seq_file
walk over the VMAs just as it does for regular smaps and just emit
nothing to the seq_file until we hit the last VMA.

Benchmarks:

    using smaps:
    iterations:1000 pid:1163 pss:220023808
    0m29.46s real 0m08.28s user 0m20.98s system

    using smaps_rollup:
    iterations:1000 pid:1163 pss:220702720
    0m04.39s real 0m00.03s user 0m04.31s system

We're using the PSS samples we collect asynchronously for
system-management tasks like fine-tuning oom_adj_score, memory use
tracking for debugging, application-level memory-use attribution, and
deciding whether we want to kill large processes during system idle
maintenance windows.  Android has been using PSS for these purposes for
a long time; as the average process VMA count has increased and and
devices become more efficiency-conscious, PSS-collection inefficiency
has started to matter more.  IMHO, it'd be a lot safer to optimize the
existing PSS-collection model, which has been fine-tuned over the years,
instead of changing the memory tracking approach entirely to work around
smaps-generation inefficiency.

Tim said:

: There are two main reasons why Android gathers PSS information:
:
: 1. Android devices can show the user the amount of memory used per
:    application via the settings app.  This is a less important use case.
:
: 2. We log PSS to help identify leaks in applications.  We have found
:    an enormous number of bugs (in the Android platform, in Google's own
:    apps, and in third-party applications) using this data.
:
: To do this, system_server (the main process in Android userspace) will
: sample the PSS of a process three seconds after it changes state (for
: example, app is launched and becomes the foreground application) and about
: every ten minutes after that.  The net result is that PSS collection is
: regularly running on at least one process in the system (usually a few
: times a minute while the screen is on, less when screen is off due to
: suspend).  PSS of a process is an incredibly useful stat to track, and we
: aren't going to get rid of it.  We've looked at some very hacky approaches
: using RSS ("take the RSS of the target process, subtract the RSS of the
: zygote process that is the parent of all Android apps") to reduce the
: accounting time, but it regularly overestimated the memory used by 20+
: percent.  Accordingly, I don't think that there's a good alternative to
: using PSS.
:
: We started looking into PSS collection performance after we noticed random
: frequency spikes while a phone's screen was off; occasionally, one of the
: CPU clusters would ramp to a high frequency because there was 200-300ms of
: constant CPU work from a single thread in the main Android userspace
: process.  The work causing the spike (which is reasonable governor
: behavior given the amount of CPU time needed) was always PSS collection.
: As a result, Android is burning more power than we should be on PSS
: collection.
:
: The other issue (and why I'm less sure about improving smaps as a
: long-term solution) is that the number of VMAs per process has increased
: significantly from release to release.  After trying to figure out why we
: were seeing these 200-300ms PSS collection times on Android O but had not
: noticed it in previous versions, we found that the number of VMAs in the
: main system process increased by 50% from Android N to Android O (from
: ~1800 to ~2700) and varying increases in every userspace process.  Android
: M to N also had an increase in the number of VMAs, although not as much.
: I'm not sure why this is increasing so much over time, but thinking about
: ASLR and ways to make ASLR better, I expect that this will continue to
: increase going forward.  I would not be surprised if we hit 5000 VMAs on
: the main Android process (system_server) by 2020.
:
: If we assume that the number of VMAs is going to increase over time, then
: doing anything we can do to reduce the overhead of each VMA during PSS
: collection seems like the right way to go, and that means outputting an
: aggregate statistic (to avoid whatever overhead there is per line in
: writing smaps and in reading each line from userspace).

b3a81d0841 mm: fix KSM data corruption
Nadav reported KSM can corrupt the user data by the TLB batching
race[1].  That means data user written can be lost.

Quote from Nadav Amit:
 "For this race we need 4 CPUs:

  CPU0: Caches a writable and dirty PTE entry, and uses the stale value
  for write later.

  CPU1: Runs madvise_free on the range that includes the PTE. It would
  clear the dirty-bit. It batches TLB flushes.

  CPU2: Writes 4 to /proc/PID/clear_refs , clearing the PTEs soft-dirty.
  We care about the fact that it clears the PTE write-bit, and of
  course, batches TLB flushes.

  CPU3: Runs KSM. Our purpose is to pass the following test in
  write_protect_page():

	if (pte_write(*pvmw.pte) || pte_dirty(*pvmw.pte) ||
	    (pte_protnone(*pvmw.pte) && pte_savedwrite(*pvmw.pte)))

  Since it will avoid TLB flush. And we want to do it while the PTE is
  stale. Later, and before replacing the page, we would be able to
  change the page.

  Note that all the operations the CPU1-3 perform canhappen in parallel
  since they only acquire mmap_sem for read.

  We start with two identical pages. Everything below regards the same
  page/PTE.

  Later, CPU1, CPU2 and CPU3 would flush the TLB, but that is too late.
  CPU0 already wrote on the page, but KSM ignored this write, and it got
  lost"

In above scenario, MADV_FREE is fixed by changing TLB batching API
including [set|clear]_tlb_flush_pending.  Remained thing is soft-dirty
part.

This patch changes soft-dirty uses TLB batching API instead of
flush_tlb_mm and KSM checks pending TLB flush by using
mm_tlb_flush_pending so that it will flush TLB to avoid data lost if
there are other parallel threads pending TLB flush.

1be7107fbe mm: larger stack guard gap, between vmas
Stack guard page is a useful feature to reduce a risk of stack smashing
into a different mapping. We have been using a single page gap which
is sufficient to prevent having stack adjacent to a different mapping.
But this seems to be insufficient in the light of the stack usage in
userspace. E.g. glibc uses as large as 64kB alloca() in many commonly
used functions. Others use constructs liks gid_t buffer[NGROUPS_MAX]
which is 256kB or stack strings with MAX_ARG_STRLEN.

This will become especially dangerous for suid binaries and the default
no limit for the stack size limit because those applications can be
tricked to consume a large portion of the stack and a single glibc call
could jump over the guard page. These attacks are not theoretical,
unfortunatelly.

Make those attacks less probable by increasing the stack guard gap
to 1MB (on systems with 4k pages; but make it depend on the page size
because systems with larger base pages might cap stack allocations in
the PAGE_SIZE units) which should cover larger alloca() and VLA stack
allocations. It is obviously not a full fix because the problem is
somehow inherent, but it should reduce attack space a lot.

One could argue that the gap size should be configurable from userspace,
but that can be done later when somebody finds that the new 1MB is wrong
for some special case applications.  For now, add a kernel command line
option (stack_guard_gap) to specify the stack gap size (in page units).

Implementation wise, first delete all the old code for stack guard page:
because although we could get away with accounting one extra page in a
stack vma, accounting a larger gap can break userspace - case in point,
a program run with "ulimit -S -v 20000" failed when the 1MB gap was
counted for RLIMIT_AS; similar problems could come with RLIMIT_MLOCK
and strict non-overcommit mode.

Instead of keeping gap inside the stack vma, maintain the stack guard
gap as a gap between vmas: using vm_start_gap() in place of vm_start
(or vm_end_gap() in place of vm_end if VM_GROWSUP) in just those few
places which need to respect the gap - mainly arch_get_unmapped_area(),
and and the vma tree's subtree_gap support for that.

cf8496ea80 proc: show MADV_FREE pages info in smaps
Show MADV_FREE pages info of each vma in smaps.  The interface is for
diganose or monitoring purpose, userspace could use it to understand
what happens in the application.  Since userspace could dirty MADV_FREE
pages without notice from kernel, this interface is the only place we
can get accurate accounting info about MADV_FREE pages.

6e84f31522 sched/headers: Prepare for new header dependencies before moving code to <linux/sched/mm.h>
We are going to split <linux/sched/mm.h> out of <linux/sched.h>, which
will have to be picked up from other headers and a couple of .c files.

Create a trivial placeholder <linux/sched/mm.h> file that just
maps to <linux/sched.h> to make this patch obviously correct and
bisectable.

The APIs that are going to be moved first are:

   mm_alloc()
   __mmdrop()
   mmdrop()
   mmdrop_async_fn()
   mmdrop_async()
   mmget_not_zero()
   mmput()
   mmput_async()
   get_task_mm()
   mm_access()
   mm_release()

Include the new header in the files that are going to need it.

388f793455 mm: use mmget_not_zero() helper
We already have the helper, we can convert the rest of the kernel
mechanically using:

  git grep -l 'atomic_inc_not_zero.*mm_users' | xargs sed -i 's/atomic_inc_not_zero(&\(.*\)->mm_users)/mmget_not_zero\(\1\)/'

This is needed for a later patch that hooks into the helper, but might
be a worthwhile cleanup on its own.

The other pagetable walks in task_mmu.c have a cond_resched() after
walking their ptes: add a cond_resched() in gather_pte_stats() too, for
reading /proc/<id>/numa_maps.  Only pagemap_pmd_range() has a
cond_resched() in its (unusually expensive) pmd_trans_huge case: more
should probably be added, but leave them unchanged for now.

b18cb64ead fs/proc: Stop trying to report thread stacks
This reverts more of:

  b76437579d ("procfs: mark thread stack correctly in proc/<pid>/maps")

... which was partially reverted by:

  65376df582 ("proc: revert /proc/<pid>/maps [stack:TID] annotation")

Originally, /proc/PID/task/TID/maps was the same as /proc/TID/maps.

In current kernels, /proc/PID/maps (or /proc/TID/maps even for
threads) shows "[stack]" for VMAs in the mm's stack address range.

In contrast, /proc/PID/task/TID/maps uses KSTK_ESP to guess the
target thread's stack's VMA.  This is racy, probably returns garbage
and, on arches with CONFIG_TASK_INFO_IN_THREAD=y, is also crash-prone:
KSTK_ESP is not safe to use on tasks that aren't known to be running
ordinary process-context kernel code.

This patch removes the difference and just shows "[stack]" for VMAs
in the mm's stack range.  This is IMO much more sensible -- the
actual "stack" address really is treated specially by the VM code,
and the current thread stack isn't even well-defined for programs
that frequently switch stacks on their own.

}

It failed as some threads can not find the memory region in
"/proc/self/smaps" which is allocated in the main process

It is caused by proc fs which uses 'file->version' to indicate the VMA that
is the last one has already been handled by read() system call. When the
next read() issues, it uses the 'version' to find the VMA, then the next
VMA is what we want to handle, the related code is as follows:

        if (last_addr) {
                vma = find_vma(mm, last_addr);
                if (vma && (vma = m_next_vma(priv, vma)))
                        return vma;
        }

However, VMA will be lost if the last VMA is gone, e.g:

The process VMA list is A->B->C->D

CPU 0                                  CPU 1
read() system call
   handle VMA B
   version = B
return to userspace

                                   unmap VMA B

issue read() again to continue to get
the region info
   find_vma(version) will get VMA C
   m_next_vma(C) will get VMA D
   handle D
   !!! VMA C is lost !!!

In order to fix this bug, we make 'file->version' indicate the end address
of the current VMA.  m_start will then look up a vma which with vma_start
< last_vm_end and moves on to the next vma if we found the same or an
overlapping vma.  This will guarantee that we will not miss an exclusive
vma but we can still miss one if the previous vma was shrunk.  This is
acceptable because guaranteeing "never miss a vma" is simply not feasible.
User has to cope with some inconsistencies if the file is not read in one
go.

0f30206bf2 fs/proc/task_mmu.c: make the task_mmu walk_page_range() limit in clear_refs_write() obvious
Trying to walk all of virtual memory requires architecture specific
knowledge.  On x86_64, addresses must be sign extended from bit 48,
whereas on arm64 the top VA_BITS of address space have their own set of
page tables.

clear_refs_write() calls walk_page_range() on the range 0 to ~0UL, it
provides a test_walk() callback that only expects to be walking over
VMAs.  Currently walk_pmd_range() will skip memory regions that don't
have a VMA, reporting them as a hole.

As this call only expects to walk user address space, make it walk 0 to
'highest_vm_end'.

4e80153a60 mm, proc: make clear_refs killable
CLEAR_REFS_MM_HIWATER_RSS and CLEAR_REFS_SOFT_DIRTY are relying on
mmap_sem for write.  If the waiting task gets killed by the oom killer
and it would operate on the current's mm it would block oom_reaper from
asynchronous address space reclaim and reduce the chances of timely OOM
resolving.  Wait for the lock in the killable mode and return with EINTR
if the task got killed while waiting.  This will also expedite the
return to the userspace and do_exit even if the mm is remote.

28093f9f34 numa: fix /proc/<pid>/numa_maps for THP
In gather_pte_stats() a THP pmd is cast into a pte, which is wrong
because the layouts may differ depending on the architecture.  On s390
this will lead to inaccurate numa_maps accounting in /proc because of
misguided pte_present() and pte_dirty() checks on the fake pte.

On other architectures pte_present() and pte_dirty() may work by chance,
but there may be an issue with direct-access (dax) mappings w/o
underlying struct pages when HAVE_PTE_SPECIAL is set and THP is
available.  In vm_normal_page() the fake pte will be checked with
pte_special() and because there is no "special" bit in a pmd, this will
always return false and the VM_PFNMAP | VM_MIXEDMAP checking will be
skipped.  On dax mappings w/o struct pages, an invalid struct page
pointer would then be returned that can crash the kernel.

This patch fixes the numa_maps THP handling by introducing new "_pmd"
variants of the can_gather_numa_stats() and vm_normal_page() functions.

09cbfeaf1a mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macros
PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time
ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page
cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE.

This promise never materialized.  And unlikely will.

We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to
PAGE_SIZE.  And it's constant source of confusion on whether
PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case,
especially on the border between fs and mm.

Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much
breakage to be doable.

Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special.  They are
not.

The changes are pretty straight-forward:

 - <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;

 - <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;

 - PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN};

 - page_cache_get() -> get_page();

 - page_cache_release() -> put_page();

This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using
script below.  For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files.
I've called spatch for them manually.

The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to
PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later.

There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach.  I'll
fix them manually in a separate patch.  Comments and documentation also
will be addressed with the separate patch.

c1192f8428 x86/mm/pkeys: Dump pkey from VMA in /proc/pid/smaps
The protection key can now be just as important as read/write
permissions on a VMA.  We need some debug mechanism to help
figure out if it is in play.  smaps seems like a logical
place to expose it.

arch/x86/kernel/setup.c is a bit of a weirdo place to put
this code, but it already had seq_file.h and there was not
a much better existing place to put it.

We also use no #ifdef.  If protection keys is .config'd out we
will effectively get the same function as if we used the weak
generic function.

65376df582 proc: revert /proc/<pid>/maps [stack:TID] annotation
Commit b76437579d ("procfs: mark thread stack correctly in
proc/<pid>/maps") added [stack:TID] annotation to /proc/<pid>/maps.

Finding the task of a stack VMA requires walking the entire thread list,
turning this into quadratic behavior: a thousand threads means a
thousand stacks, so the rendering of /proc/<pid>/maps needs to look at a
million combinations.

The cost is not in proportion to the usefulness as described in the
patch.

Drop the [stack:TID] annotation to make /proc/<pid>/maps (and
/proc/<pid>/numa_maps) usable again for higher thread counts.

The [stack] annotation inside /proc/<pid>/task/<tid>/maps is retained, as
identifying the stack VMA there is an O(1) operation.

Siddesh said:
 "The end users needed a way to identify thread stacks programmatically and
  there wasn't a way to do that.  I'm afraid I no longer remember (or have
  access to the resources that would aid my memory since I changed
  employers) the details of their requirement.  However, I did do this on my
  own time because I thought it was an interesting project for me and nobody
  really gave any feedback then as to its utility, so as far as I am
  concerned you could roll back the main thread maps information since the
  information is available in the thread-specific files"

5c2ff95e41 numa: fix /proc/<pid>/numa_maps for hugetlbfs on s390
When working with hugetlbfs ptes (which are actually pmds) is not valid to
directly use pte functions like pte_present() because the hardware bit
layout of pmds and ptes can be different.  This is the case on s390.
Therefore we have to convert the hugetlbfs ptes first into a valid pte
encoding with huge_ptep_get().

Currently the /proc/<pid>/numa_maps code uses hugetlbfs ptes without
huge_ptep_get().  On s390 this leads to the following two problems:

1) The pte_present() function returns false (instead of true) for
   PROT_NONE hugetlb ptes. Therefore PROT_NONE vmas are missing
   completely in the "numa_maps" output.

2) The pte_dirty() function always returns false for all hugetlb ptes.
   Therefore these pages are reported as "mapped=xxx" instead of
   "dirty=xxx".

Therefore use huge_ptep_get() to correctly convert the hugetlb ptes.

afd9883f93 mm, proc: adjust PSS calculation
The goal of this patchset is to make refcounting on THP pages cheaper
with simpler semantics and allow the same THP compound page to be mapped
with PMD and PTEs.  This is required to get reasonable THP-pagecache
implementation.

With the new refcounting design it's much easier to protect against
split_huge_page(): simple reference on a page will make you the deal.
It makes gup_fast() implementation simpler and doesn't require
special-case in futex code to handle tail THP pages.

It should improve THP utilization over the system since splitting THP in
one process doesn't necessary lead to splitting the page in all other
processes have the page mapped.

The patchset drastically lower complexity of get_page()/put_page()
codepaths.  I encourage people look on this code before-and-after to
justify time budget on reviewing this patchset.

This patch (of 37):

With new refcounting all subpages of the compound page are not necessary
have the same mapcount.  We need to take into account mapcount of every
sub-page.

8463833590 mm: rework virtual memory accounting
When inspecting a vague code inside prctl(PR_SET_MM_MEM) call (which
testing the RLIMIT_DATA value to figure out if we're allowed to assign
new @start_brk, @brk, @start_data, @end_data from mm_struct) it's been
commited that RLIMIT_DATA in a form it's implemented now doesn't do
anything useful because most of user-space libraries use mmap() syscall
for dynamic memory allocations.

Linus suggested to convert RLIMIT_DATA rlimit into something suitable
for anonymous memory accounting.  But in this patch we go further, and
the changes are bundled together as:

 * keep vma counting if CONFIG_PROC_FS=n, will be used for limits
 * replace mm->shared_vm with better defined mm->data_vm
 * account anonymous executable areas as executable
 * account file-backed growsdown/up areas as stack
 * drop struct file* argument from vm_stat_account
 * enforce RLIMIT_DATA for size of data areas

This way code looks cleaner: now code/stack/data classification depends
only on vm_flags state:

 VM_EXEC & ~VM_WRITE            -> code  (VmExe + VmLib in proc)
 VM_GROWSUP | VM_GROWSDOWN      -> stack (VmStk)
 VM_WRITE & ~VM_SHARED & !stack -> data  (VmData)

The rest (VmSize - VmData - VmStk - VmExe - VmLib) could be called
"shared", but that might be strange beast like readonly-private or VM_IO
area.

 - RLIMIT_AS            limits whole address space "VmSize"
 - RLIMIT_STACK         limits stack "VmStk" (but each vma individually)
 - RLIMIT_DATA          now limits "VmData"

8cee852ec5 mm, procfs: breakdown RSS for anon, shmem and file in /proc/pid/status
There are several shortcomings with the accounting of shared memory
(SysV shm, shared anonymous mapping, mapping of a tmpfs file).  The
values in /proc/<pid>/status and <...>/statm don't allow to distinguish
between shmem memory and a shared mapping to a regular file, even though
theirs implication on memory usage are quite different: during reclaim,
file mapping can be dropped or written back on disk, while shmem needs a
place in swap.

Also, to distinguish the memory occupied by anonymous and file mappings,
one has to read the /proc/pid/statm file, which has a field for the file
mappings (again, including shmem) and total memory occupied by these
mappings (i.e.  equivalent to VmRSS in the <...>/status file.  Getting
the value for anonymous mappings only is thus not exactly user-friendly
(the statm file is intended to be rather efficiently machine-readable).

To address both of these shortcomings, this patch adds a breakdown of
VmRSS in /proc/<pid>/status via new fields RssAnon, RssFile and
RssShmem, making use of the previous preparatory patch.  These fields

eca56ff906 mm, shmem: add internal shmem resident memory accounting
Currently looking at /proc/<pid>/status or statm, there is no way to
distinguish shmem pages from pages mapped to a regular file (shmem pages
are mapped to /dev/zero), even though their implication in actual memory
use is quite different.

The internal accounting currently counts shmem pages together with
regular files.  As a preparation to extend the userspace interfaces,
this patch adds MM_SHMEMPAGES counter to mm_rss_stat to account for
shmem pages separately from MM_FILEPAGES.  The next patch will expose it
to userspace - this patch doesn't change the exported values yet, by
adding up MM_SHMEMPAGES to MM_FILEPAGES at places where MM_FILEPAGES was
used before.  The only user-visible change after this patch is the OOM
killer message that separates the reported "shmem-rss" from "file-rss".

48131e03ca mm, proc: reduce cost of /proc/pid/smaps for unpopulated shmem mappings
Following the previous patch, further reduction of /proc/pid/smaps cost
is possible for private writable shmem mappings with unpopulated areas
where the page walk invokes the .pte_hole function.  We can use radix
tree iterator for each such area instead of calling find_get_entry() in
a loop.  This is possible at the extra maintenance cost of introducing
another shmem function shmem_partial_swap_usage().

To demonstrate the diference, I have measured this on a process that
creates a private writable 2GB mapping of a partially swapped out
/dev/shm/file (which cannot employ the optimizations from the prvious
patch) and doesn't populate it at all.  I time how long does it take to
cat /proc/pid/smaps of this process 100 times.

Before this patch:

real    0m3.831s
user    0m0.180s
sys     0m3.212s

After this patch:

real    0m1.176s
user    0m0.180s
sys     0m0.684s

The time is similar to the case where a radix tree iterator is employed
on the whole mapping.

6a15a37097 mm, proc: reduce cost of /proc/pid/smaps for shmem mappings
The previous patch has improved swap accounting for shmem mapping, which
however made /proc/pid/smaps more expensive for shmem mappings, as we
consult the radix tree for each pte_none entry, so the overal complexity
is O(n*log(n)).

We can reduce this significantly for mappings that cannot contain COWed
pages, because then we can either use the statistics tha shmem object
itself tracks (if the mapping contains the whole object, or the swap
usage of the whole object is zero), or use the radix tree iterator,
which is much more effective than repeated find_get_entry() calls.

This patch therefore introduces a function shmem_swap_usage(vma) and
makes /proc/pid/smaps use it when possible.  Only for writable private
mappings of shmem objects (i.e.  tmpfs files) with the shmem object
itself (partially) swapped outwe have to resort to the find_get_entry()
approach.

Hopefully such mappings are relatively uncommon.

To demonstrate the diference, I have measured this on a process that
creates a 2GB mapping and dirties single pages with a stride of 2MB, and
time how long does it take to cat /proc/pid/smaps of this process 100
times.

Private writable mapping of a /dev/shm/file (the most complex case):

real    0m3.831s
user    0m0.180s
sys     0m3.212s

Shared mapping of an almost full mapping of a partially swapped /dev/shm/file
(which needs to employ the radix tree iterator).

real    0m1.351s
user    0m0.096s
sys     0m0.768s

Same, but with /dev/shm/file not swapped (so no radix tree walk needed)

real    0m0.935s
user    0m0.128s
sys     0m0.344s

Private anonymous mapping:

real    0m0.949s
user    0m0.116s
sys     0m0.348s

The cost is now much closer to the private anonymous mapping case, unless
the shmem mapping is private and writable.

c261e7d94f mm, proc: account for shmem swap in /proc/pid/smaps
Currently, /proc/pid/smaps will always show "Swap: 0 kB" for
shmem-backed mappings, even if the mapped portion does contain pages
that were swapped out.  This is because unlike private anonymous
mappings, shmem does not change pte to swap entry, but pte_none when
swapping the page out.  In the smaps page walk, such page thus looks
like it was never faulted in.

This patch changes smaps_pte_entry() to determine the swap status for
such pte_none entries for shmem mappings, similarly to how
mincore_page() does it.  Swapped out shmem pages are thus accounted for.
For private mappings of tmpfs files that COWed some of the pages, swaped
out status of the original shmem pages is naturally ignored.  If some of
the private copies was also swapped out, they are accounted via their
page table swap entries, so the resulting reported swap usage is then a
sum of both swapped out private copies, and swapped out shmem pages that
were not COWed.  No double accounting can thus happen.

The accounting is arguably still not as precise as for private anonymous
mappings, since now we will count also pages that the process in
question never accessed, but another process populated them and then let
them become swapped out.  I believe it is still less confusing and
subtle than not showing any swap usage by shmem mappings at all.
Swapped out counter might of interest of users who would like to prevent
from future swapins during performance critical operation and pre-fault
them at their convenience.  Especially for larger swapped out regions
the cost of swapin is much higher than a fresh page allocation.  So a
differentiation between pte_none vs.  swapped out is important for those
usecases.

One downside of this patch is that it makes /proc/pid/smaps more
expensive for shmem mappings, as we consult the radix tree for each
pte_none entry, so the overal complexity is O(n*log(n)).  I have
measured this on a process that creates a 2GB mapping and dirties single
pages with a stride of 2MB, and time how long does it take to cat
/proc/pid/smaps of this process 100 times.

Private anonymous mapping:

real    0m0.949s
user    0m0.116s
sys     0m0.348s

Mapping of a /dev/shm/file:

real    0m3.831s
user    0m0.180s
sys     0m3.212s

The difference is rather substantial, so the next patch will reduce the
cost for shared or read-only mappings.

In a less controlled experiment, I've gathered pids of processes on my
desktop that have either '/dev/shm/*' or 'SYSV*' in smaps.  This
included the Chrome browser and some KDE processes.  Again, I've run cat
/proc/pid/smaps on each 100 times.

Before this patch:

real    0m9.050s
user    0m0.518s
sys     0m8.066s

After this patch:

real    0m9.221s
user    0m0.541s
sys     0m8.187s

This suggests low impact on average systems.

Note that this patch doesn't attempt to adjust the SwapPss field for
shmem mappings, which would need extra work to determine who else could
have the pages mapped.  Thus the value stays zero except for COWed
swapped out pages in a shmem mapping, which are accounted as usual.

326c2597a3 mm: clear pte in clear_soft_dirty()
As mentioned in the commit 56eecdb912 ("mm: Use ptep/pmdp_set_numa()
for updating _PAGE_NUMA bit"), architectures like ppc64 don't do tlb
flush in set_pte/pmd functions.

So when dealing with existing pte in clear_soft_dirty, the pte must be
cleared before being modified.
