Write-lock all VMAs which might be affected by a merge, split, expand or shrink operations. All these operations use vma_prepare() before making the modifications, therefore it provides a centralized place to perform VMA locking.

Protect VMA from concurrent page fault handler while collapsing a huge page. Page fault handler needs a stable PMD to use PTL and relies on per-VMA lock to prevent concurrent PMD changes. pmdp_collapse_flush(), set_huge_pmd() and collapse_and_free_pmd() can modify a PMD, which will not be detected by a page fault handler without proper locking. Before this patch, page tables can be walked under any one of the mmap_lock, the mapping lock, and the anon_vma lock; so when khugepaged unlinks and frees page tables, it must ensure that all of those either are locked or don't exist. This patch adds a fourth lock under which page tables can be traversed, and so khugepaged must also lock out that one.

Introduce per-VMA locking. The lock implementation relies on a per-vma and per-mm sequence counters to note exclusive locking: - read lock - (implemented by vma_start_read) requires the vma (vm_lock_seq) and mm (mm_lock_seq) sequence counters to differ. If they match then there must be a vma exclusive lock held somewhere. - read unlock - (implemented by vma_end_read) is a trivial vma->lock unlock. - write lock - (vma_start_write) requires the mmap_lock to be held exclusively and the current mm counter is assigned to the vma counter. This will allow multiple vmas to be locked under a single mmap_lock write lock (e.g. during vma merging). The vma counter is modified under exclusive vma lock. - write unlock - (vma_end_write_all) is a batch release of all vma locks held. It doesn't pair with a specific vma_start_write! It is done before exclusive mmap_lock is released by incrementing mm sequence counter (mm_lock_seq). - write downgrade - if the mmap_lock is downgraded to the read lock, all vma write locks are released as well (effectivelly same as write unlock).

Patch series "Per-VMA locks", v4. LWN article describing the feature: https://lwn.net/Articles/906852/ Per-vma locks idea that was discussed during SPF [1] discussion at LSF/MM last year [2], which concluded with suggestion that “a reader/writer semaphore could be put into the VMA itself; that would have the effect of using the VMA as a sort of range lock. There would still be contention at the VMA level, but it would be an improvement.” This patchset implements this suggested approach. When handling page faults we lookup the VMA that contains the faulting page under RCU protection and try to acquire its lock. If that fails we fall back to using mmap_lock, similar to how SPF handled this situation. One notable way the implementation deviates from the proposal is the way VMAs are read-locked. During some of mm updates, multiple VMAs need to be locked until the end of the update (e.g. vma_merge, split_vma, etc). Tracking all the locked VMAs, avoiding recursive locks, figuring out when it's safe to unlock previously locked VMAs would make the code more complex. So, instead of the usual lock/unlock pattern, the proposed solution marks a VMA as locked and provides an efficient way to: 1. Identify locked VMAs. 2. Unlock all locked VMAs in bulk. We also postpone unlocking the locked VMAs until the end of the update, when we do mmap_write_unlock. Potentially this keeps a VMA locked for longer than is absolutely necessary but it results in a big reduction of code complexity. Read-locking a VMA is done using two sequence numbers - one in the vm_area_struct and one in the mm_struct. VMA is considered read-locked when these sequence numbers are equal. To read-lock a VMA we set the sequence number in vm_area_struct to be equal to the sequence number in mm_struct. To unlock all VMAs we increment mm_struct's seq number. This allows for an efficient way to track locked VMAs and to drop the locks on all VMAs at the end of the update. The patchset implements per-VMA locking only for anonymous pages which are not in swap and avoids userfaultfs as their implementation is more complex. Additional support for file-back page faults, swapped and user pages can be added incrementally. Performance benchmarks show similar although slightly smaller benefits as with SPF patchset (~75% of SPF benefits). Still, with lower complexity this approach might be more desirable. Since RFC was posted in September 2022, two separate Google teams outside of Android evaluated the patchset and confirmed positive results. Here are the known usecases when per-VMA locks show benefits: Android: Apps with high number of threads (~100) launch times improve by up to 20%. Each thread mmaps several areas upon startup (Stack and Thread-local storage (TLS), thread signal stack, indirect ref table), which requires taking mmap_lock in write mode. Page faults take mmap_lock in read mode. During app launch, both thread creation and page faults establishing the active workinget are happening in parallel and that causes lock contention between mm writers and readers even if updates and page faults are happening in different VMAs. Per-vma locks prevent this contention by providing more granular lock. Google Fibers: We have several dynamically sized thread pools that spawn new threads under increased load and reduce their number when idling. For example, Google's in-process scheduling/threading framework, UMCG/Fibers, is backed by such a thread pool. When idling, only a small number of idle worker threads are available; when a spike of incoming requests arrive, each request is handled in its own "fiber", which is a work item posted onto a UMCG worker thread; quite often these spikes lead to a number of new threads spawning. Each new thread needs to allocate and register an RSEQ section on its TLS, then register itself with the kernel as a UMCG worker thread, and only after that it can be considered by the in-process UMCG/Fiber scheduler as available to do useful work. In short, during an incoming workload spike new threads have to be spawned, and they perform several syscalls (RSEQ registration, UMCG worker registration, memory allocations) before they can actually start doing useful work. Removing any bottlenecks on this thread startup path will greatly improve our services' latencies when faced with request/workload spikes. At high scale, mmap_lock contention during thread creation and stack page faults leads to user-visible multi-second serving latencies in a similar pattern to Android app startup. Per-VMA locking patchset has been run successfully in limited experiments with user-facing production workloads. In these experiments, we observed that the peak thread creation rate was high enough that thread creation is no longer a bottleneck. TCP zerocopy receive: From the point of view of TCP zerocopy receive, the per-vma lock patch is massively beneficial. In today's implementation, a process with N threads where N - 1 are performing zerocopy receive and 1 thread is performing madvise() with the write lock taken (e.g. needs to change vm_flags) will result in all N -1 receive threads blocking until the madvise is done. Conversely, on a busy process receiving a lot of data, an madvise operation that does need to take the mmap lock in write mode will need to wait for all of the receives to be done - a lose:lose proposition. Per-VMA locking _removes_ by definition this source of contention entirely. There are other benefits for receive as well, chiefly a reduction in cacheline bouncing across receiving threads for locking/unlocking the single mmap lock. On an RPC style synthetic workload with 4KB RPCs: 1a) The find+lock+unlock VMA path in the base case, without the per-vma lock patchset, is about 0.7% of cycles as measured by perf. 1b) mmap_read_lock + mmap_read_unlock in the base case is about 0.5% cycles overall - most of this is within the TCP read hotpath (a small fraction is 'other' usage in the system). 2a) The find+lock+unlock VMA path, with the per-vma patchset and a trivial patch written to take advantage of it in TCP, is about 0.4% of cycles (down from 0.7% above) 2b) mmap_read_lock + mmap_read_unlock in the per-vma patchset is < 0.1% cycles and is out of the TCP read hotpath entirely (down from 0.5% before, the remaining usage is the 'other' usage in the system). So, in addition to entirely removing an onerous source of contention, it also reduces the CPU cycles of TCP receive zerocopy by about 0.5%+ (compared to overall cycles in perf) for the 'small' RPC scenario. In https://lkml.kernel.org/r/87fsaqouyd.fsf_-_@stealth, Punit demonstrated throughput improvements of as much as 188% from this patchset. This patch (of 25): This configuration variable will be used to build the support for VMA locking during page fault handling. This is enabled on supported architectures with SMP and MMU set. The architecture support is needed since the page fault handler is called from the architecture's page faulting code which needs modifications to handle faults under VMA lock.

Patch series "Prevent ->map_pages from sleeping", v2. In preparation for a larger patch series which will handle (some, easy) page faults protected only by RCU, change the two filesystems which have sleeping locks to not take them and hold the RCU lock around calls to ->map_page to prevent other filesystems from adding sleeping locks. This patch (of 3): XFS doesn't actually need to be holding the XFS_MMAPLOCK_SHARED to do this. filemap_map_pages() cannot bring new folios into the page cache and the folio lock is taken during filemap_map_pages() which provides sufficient protection against a truncation or hole punch.

Patch series "selftests: Fix virtual address range for arm64", v2. When the virtual address range selftest is run on arm64 and x86 platforms, it is observed that both the low and high VA range iterations are skipped when the MAP_CHUNK_SIZE is set to 16GB. The MAP_CHUNK_SIZE is changed to 1GB to resolve this issue, following which support for arm64 platform is added by changing the NR_CHUNKS_HIGH for aarch64 to accommodate up to 4PB of virtual address space allocation requests. Dynamic memory allocation of array holding addresses is introduced to prevent overflow of the stack. Finally, the overcommit_policy is set as OVERCOMMIT_ALWAYS to prevent the kernel from denying a memory allocation request based on a platform's physical memory availability. This patch (of 3): mmap() fails to allocate 16GB virtual space chunk, skipping both low and high VA range iterations. Hence, reduce MAP_CHUNK_SIZE to 1GB and update relevant macros as required.

Rather than setting err = -1 and only resetting if we hit merge cases, explicitly check the non-mergeable case to make it abundantly clear that we only proceed with the rest if something is mergeable, default err to 0 and only update if an error might occur.

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

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

Having previously laid the foundation for converting vread() to an iterator function, pull the trigger and do so. This patch attempts to provide minimal refactoring and to reflect the existing logic as best we can, for example we continue to zero portions of memory not read, as before. Overall, there should be no functional difference other than a performance improvement in /proc/kcore access to vmalloc regions. Now we have eliminated the need for a bounce buffer in read_kcore_iter(), we dispense with it, and try to write to user memory optimistically but with faults disabled via copy_page_to_iter_nofault(). We already have preemption disabled by holding a spin lock. We continue faulting in until the operation is complete. Additionally, we must account for the fact that at any point a copy may fail (most likely due to a fault not being able to occur), we exit indicating fewer bytes retrieved than expected.

Provide a means to copy a page to user space from an iterator, aborting if a page fault would occur. This supports compound pages, but may be passed a tail page with an offset extending further into the compound page, so we cannot pass a folio. This allows for this function to be called from atomic context and _try_ to user pages if they are faulted in, aborting if not. The function does not use _copy_to_iter() in order to not specify might_fault(), this is similar to copy_page_from_iter_atomic(). This is being added in order that an iteratable form of vread() can be implemented while holding spinlocks.

Patch series "convert read_kcore(), vread() to use iterators", v8. While reviewing Baoquan's recent changes to permit vread() access to vm_map_ram regions of vmalloc allocations, Willy pointed out [1] that it would be nice to refactor vread() as a whole, since its only user is read_kcore() and the existing form of vread() necessitates the use of a bounce buffer. This patch series does exactly that, as well as adjusting how we read the kernel text section to avoid the use of a bounce buffer in this case as well. This has been tested against the test case which motivated Baoquan's changes in the first place [2] which continues to function correctly, as do the vmalloc self tests. This patch (of 4): Commit df04abfd ("fs/proc/kcore.c: Add bounce buffer for ktext data") introduced the use of a bounce buffer to retrieve kernel text data for /proc/kcore in order to avoid failures arising from hardened user copies enabled by CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY in check_kernel_text_object(). We can avoid doing this if instead of copy_to_user() we use _copy_to_user() which bypasses the hardening check. This is more efficient than using a bounce buffer and simplifies the code. We do so as part an overall effort to eliminate bounce buffer usage in the function with an eye to converting it an iterator read.

This functionality's sole user, the drm ttm module, removed support for it in commit 0d979509 ("drm/ttm: remove ttm_bo_vm_insert_huge()") as the whole approach is currently unworkable without a PMD/PUD special bit and updates to GUP.

Patch series "Remove drm/ttm-specific mm changes". Functionality was added specifically for the DRM TTM driver to support mapping memory for VM_MIXEDMAP VMAs with customised protection flags, however this has now been rolled back as issues were found with this approach. This series removes the mm changes too, retaining some of the useful comments. This patch (of 3): The sole user of vmf_insert_mixed_prot(), the drm ttm module, stopped using this in commit f91142c6 ("drm/ttm: nuke VM_MIXEDMAP on BO mappings v3") citing use of VM_MIXEDMAP in this case being terribly broken. Remove this now-dead code and references to it, but retain the useful description of the prot != vma->vm_page_prot case, moving it to vmf_insert_pfn_prot() instead.

Currently the memtest results were only presented in dmesg. When running a large fleet of devices without ECC RAM it's currently not easy to do bulk monitoring for memory corruption. You have to parse dmesg, but that's a ring buffer so the error might disappear after some time. In general I do not consider dmesg to be a great API to query RAM status. In several companies I've seen such errors remain undetected and cause issues for way too long. So I think it makes sense to provide a monitoring API, so that we can safely detect and act upon them. This adds /proc/meminfo entry which can be easily used by scripts. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20230321103430.7130-1-tomas.mudrunka@gmail.comSigned-off-by:

When deferred initialization of struct pages is enabled, page_ext_init() must be called after all the deferred initialization is done, but there is no point to keep it a separate call from kernel_init_freeable() right after page_alloc_init_late(). Fold the call to page_ext_init() into page_alloc_init_late() and localize deferred_struct_pages variable. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20230321170513.2401534-11-rppt@kernel.orgSigned-off-by:

The page_alloc_init() name is really misleading because all this function does is sets up CPU hotplug callbacks for the page allocator. Rename it to page_alloc_init_cpuhp() so that name will reflect what the function does. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20230321170513.2401534-6-rppt@kernel.orgSigned-off-by:
