The new remove_hugetlb_page() routine is designed to remove a hugetlb page from hugetlbfs processing. It will remove the page from the active or free list, update global counters and set the compound page destructor to NULL so that PageHuge() will return false for the 'page'. After this call, the 'page' can be treated as a normal compound page or a collection of base size pages. update_and_free_page no longer decrements h->nr_huge_pages{_node} as this is performed in remove_hugetlb_page. The only functionality performed by update_and_free_page is to free the base pages to the lower level allocators. update_and_free_page is typically called after remove_hugetlb_page. remove_hugetlb_page is to be called with the hugetlb_lock held. Creating this routine and separating functionality is in preparation for restructuring code to reduce lock hold times. This commit should not introduce any changes to functionality.

The helper routine hstate_next_node_to_alloc accesses and modifies the hstate variable next_nid_to_alloc. The helper is used by the routines alloc_pool_huge_page and adjust_pool_surplus. adjust_pool_surplus is called with hugetlb_lock held. However, alloc_pool_huge_page can not be called with the hugetlb lock held as it will call the page allocator. Two instances of alloc_pool_huge_page could be run in parallel or alloc_pool_huge_page could run in parallel with adjust_pool_surplus which may result in the variable next_nid_to_alloc becoming invalid for the caller and pages being allocated on the wrong node. Both alloc_pool_huge_page and adjust_pool_surplus are only called from the routine set_max_huge_pages after boot. set_max_huge_pages is only called as the reusult of a user writing to the proc/sysfs nr_hugepages, or nr_hugepages_mempolicy file to adjust the number of hugetlb pages. It makes little sense to allow multiple adjustment to the number of hugetlb pages in parallel. Add a mutex to the hstate and use it to only allow one hugetlb page adjustment at a time. This will synchronize modifications to the next_nid_to_alloc variable. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210409205254.242291-4-mike.kravetz@oracle.comSigned-off-by:

Patch series "make hugetlb put_page safe for all calling contexts", v5. This effort is the result a recent bug report [1]. Syzbot found a potential deadlock in the hugetlb put_page/free_huge_page_path. WARNING: SOFTIRQ-safe -> SOFTIRQ-unsafe lock order detected Since the free_huge_page_path already has code to 'hand off' page free requests to a workqueue, a suggestion was proposed to make the in_irq() detection accurate by always enabling PREEMPT_COUNT [2]. The outcome of that discussion was that the hugetlb put_page path (free_huge_page) path should be properly fixed and safe for all calling contexts. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/000000000000f1c03b05bc43aadc@google.com/ [2] http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210311021321.127500-1-mike.kravetz@oracle.com This patch (of 8): cma_release is currently a sleepable operatation because the bitmap manipulation is protected by cma->lock mutex. Hugetlb code which relies on cma_release for CMA backed (giga) hugetlb pages, however, needs to be irq safe. The lock doesn't protect any sleepable operation so it can be changed to a (irq aware) spin lock. The bitmap processing should be quite fast in typical case but if cma sizes grow to TB then we will likely need to replace the lock by a more optimized bitmap implementation.

A rare out of memory error would prevent removal of the reserve map region for a page. hugetlb_fix_reserve_counts() handles this rare case to avoid dangling with incorrect counts. Unfortunately, hugepage_subpool_get_pages and hugetlb_acct_memory could possibly fail too. We should correctly handle these cases.

The resv_map could be NULL since this routine can be called in the evict inode path for all hugetlbfs inodes and we will have chg = 0 in this case. But (chg - freed) won't go negative as Mike pointed out: "If resv_map is NULL, then no hugetlb pages can be allocated/associated with the file. As a result, remove_inode_hugepages will never find any huge pages associated with the inode and the passed value 'freed' will always be zero." Add a comment clarifying this to make it clear and also avoid confusion. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210410072348.20437-4-linmiaohe@huawei.comSigned-off-by:

We did not have a direct user interface of splitting the compound page backing a THP and there is no need unless we want to expose the THP implementation details to users. Make <debugfs>/split_huge_pages accept a new command to do that. By writing "<pid>,<vaddr_start>,<vaddr_end>" to <debugfs>/split_huge_pages, THPs within the given virtual address range from the process with the given pid are split. It is used to test split_huge_page function. In addition, a selftest program is added to tools/testing/selftests/vm to utilize the interface by splitting PMD THPs and PTE-mapped THPs. This does not change the old behavior, i.e., writing 1 to the interface to split all THPs in the system. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210331235309.332292-1-zi.yan@sent.comSigned-off-by:

It's guaranteed that huge_zero_page will not be NULL if huge_zero_refcount is increased successfully. When READ_ONCE(huge_zero_page) is returned, there must be a huge_zero_page and it can be replaced with returning 'true' when we do not care about the value of huge_zero_page. We can thus make it return bool to save READ_ONCE cpu cycles as the return value is just used to check if huge_zero_page exists.

Huge pmd sharing could bring problem to userfaultfd. The thing is that userfaultfd is running its logic based on the special bits on page table entries, however the huge pmd sharing could potentially share page table entries for different address ranges. That could cause issues on either: - When sharing huge pmd page tables for an uffd write protected range, the newly mapped huge pmd range will also be write protected unexpectedly, or, - When we try to write protect a range of huge pmd shared range, we'll first do huge_pmd_unshare() in hugetlb_change_protection(), however that also means the UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT could be silently skipped for the shared region, which could lead to data loss. While at it, a few other things are done altogether: - Move want_pmd_share() from mm/hugetlb.c into linux/hugetlb.h, because that's definitely something that arch code would like to use too - ARM64 currently directly check against CONFIG_ARCH_WANT_HUGE_PMD_SHARE when trying to share huge pmd. Switch to the want_pmd_share() helper. - Move vma_shareable() from huge_pmd_share() into want_pmd_share().

Patch series "hugetlb: Disable huge pmd unshare for uffd-wp", v4. This series tries to disable huge pmd unshare of hugetlbfs backed memory for uffd-wp. Although uffd-wp of hugetlbfs is still during rfc stage, the idea of this series may be needed for multiple tasks (Axel's uffd minor fault series, and Mike's soft dirty series), so I picked it out from the larger series. This patch (of 4): It is a preparation work to be able to behave differently in the per architecture huge_pte_alloc() according to different VMA attributes. Pass it deeper into huge_pmd_share() so that we can avoid the find_vma() call.

clear_inode()'s BUG_ON(!mapping_empty(&inode->i_data)) is unsafe: we know of two ways in which nodes can and do (on rare occasions) get left behind. Until those are fixed, do not BUG_ON() nor even WARN_ON(). Yes, this will then leak those nodes (or the next user of the struct inode may use them); but this has been happening for years, and the new BUG_ON(!mapping_empty) was only guilty of revealing that. A proper fix will follow, but no hurry. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/alpine.LSU.2.11.2104292229380.16080@eggly.anvilsSigned-off-by:
