Patch series "btrfs: Convert kmap/memset/kunmap to memzero_user()".
Lifting memzero_user(), convert it to kmap_local_page() and then use it
in btrfs.
This patch (of 3):
memzero_page() can replace the kmap/memset/kunmap pattern in other
places in the code. While zero_user() has the same interface it is not
the same call and its use should be limited and some of those calls may
be better converted from zero_user() to memzero_page().[1] But that is
not addressed in this series.
Lift memzero_page() to highmem.

Physical memory hotadd has to allocate a memmap (struct page array) for
the newly added memory section. Currently, alloc_pages_node() is used
for those allocations.
This has some disadvantages:
a) an existing memory is consumed for that purpose
(eg: ~2MB per 128MB memory section on x86_64)
This can even lead to extreme cases where system goes OOM because
the physically hotplugged memory depletes the available memory before
it is onlined.
b) if the whole node is movable then we have off-node struct pages
which has performance drawbacks.
c) It might be there are no PMD_ALIGNED chunks so memmap array gets
populated with base pages.
This can be improved when CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP is enabled.
Vmemap page tables can map arbitrary memory. That means that we can
reserve a part of the physically hotadded memory to back vmemmap page
tables. This implementation uses the beginning of the hotplugged memory
for that purpose.
There are some non-obviously things to consider though.
Vmemmap pages are allocated/freed during the memory hotplug events
(add_memory_resource(), try_remove_memory()) when the memory is
added/removed. This means that the reserved physical range is not
online although it is used. The most obvious side effect is that
pfn_to_online_page() returns NULL for those pfns. The current design
expects that this should be OK as the hotplugged memory is considered a
garbage until it is onlined. For example hibernation wouldn't save the
content of those vmmemmaps into the image so it wouldn't be restored on
resume but this should be OK as there no real content to recover anyway
while metadata is reachable from other data structures (e.g. vmemmap
page tables).
The reserved space is therefore (de)initialized during the {on,off}line
events (mhp_{de}init_memmap_on_memory). That is done by extracting page
allocator independent initialization from the regular onlining path.
The primary reason to handle the reserved space outside of
{on,off}line_pages is to make each initialization specific to the
purpose rather than special case them in a single function.
As per above, the functions that are introduced are:
- mhp_init_memmap_on_memory:
Initializes vmemmap pages by calling move_pfn_range_to_zone(), calls
kasan_add_zero_shadow(), and onlines as many sections as vmemmap pages
fully span.
- mhp_deinit_memmap_on_memory:
Offlines as many sections as vmemmap pages fully span, removes the
range from zhe zone by remove_pfn_range_from_zone(), and calls
kasan_remove_zero_shadow() for the range.
The new function memory_block_online() calls mhp_init_memmap_on_memory()
before doing the actual online_pages(). Should online_pages() fail, we
clean up by calling mhp_deinit_memmap_on_memory(). Adjusting of
present_pages is done at the end once we know that online_pages()
succedeed.
On offline, memory_block_offline() needs to unaccount vmemmap pages from
present_pages() before calling offline_pages(). This is necessary because
offline_pages() tears down some structures based on the fact whether the
node or the zone become empty. If offline_pages() fails, we account back
vmemmap pages. If it succeeds, we call mhp_deinit_memmap_on_memory().
Hot-remove:
We need to be careful when removing memory, as adding and
removing memory needs to be done with the same granularity.
To check that this assumption is not violated, we check the
memory range we want to remove and if a) any memory block has
vmemmap pages and b) the range spans more than a single memory
block, we scream out loud and refuse to proceed.
If all is good and the range was using memmap on memory (aka vmemmap pages),
we construct an altmap structure so free_hugepage_table does the right
thing and calls vmem_altmap_free instead of free_pagetable.

On some platforms ZERO_PAGE(0) might end-up in a movable zone. Do not
migrate zero page in gup during longterm pinning as migration of zero page
is not allowed.
For example, in x86 QEMU with 16G of memory and kernelcore=5G parameter, I
see the following:
Boot#1: zero_pfn 0x48a8d zero_pfn zone: ZONE_DMA32
Boot#2: zero_pfn 0x20168d zero_pfn zone: ZONE_MOVABLE
On x86, empty_zero_page is declared in .bss and depending on the loader
may end up in different physical locations during boots.
Also, move is_zero_pfn() my_zero_pfn() functions under CONFIG_MMU, because
zero_pfn that they are using is declared in memory.c which is compiled
with CONFIG_MMU.

for any allocations from ZONE_MOVABLE by removing __GFP_MOVABLE from
gfp_mask when this flag is passed in the current context.
Add is_pinnable_page() to return true if page is in a pinnable page. A

PF_MEMALLOC_NOCMA is used ot guarantee that the allocator will not
return pages that might belong to CMA region. This is currently used
for long term gup to make sure that such pins are not going to be done
on any CMA pages.
When PF_MEMALLOC_NOCMA has been introduced we haven't realized that it
is focusing on CMA pages too much and that there is larger class of
pages that need the same treatment. MOVABLE zone cannot contain any
long term pins as well so it makes sense to reuse and redefine this flag
for that usecase as well. Rename the flag to PF_MEMALLOC_PIN which
defines an allocation context which can only get pages suitable for
long-term pins.
Also rename: memalloc_nocma_save()/memalloc_nocma_restore to
memalloc_pin_save()/memalloc_pin_restore() and make the new functions
common.

To help with debugging the sluggishness caused by TLB miss/reload, we
introduce monotonic hugepage [direct mapped] split event counts since
system state: SYSTEM_RUNNING to be displayed as part of /proc/vmstat in
x86 servers
The lifetime split event information will be displayed at the bottom of
/proc/vmstat
....
swap_ra 0
swap_ra_hit 0
direct_map_level2_splits 94
direct_map_level3_splits 4
nr_unstable 0
....
One of the many lasting sources of direct hugepage splits is kernel
tracing (kprobes, tracepoints).
Note that the kernel's code segment [512 MB] points to the same physical
addresses that have been already mapped in the kernel's direct mapping
range.
Source : Documentation/x86/x86_64/mm.rst
When we enable kernel tracing, the kernel has to modify
attributes/permissions of the text segment hugepages that are direct
mapped causing them to split.
Kernel's direct mapped hugepages do not coalesce back after split and
remain in place for the remainder of the lifetime.
An instance of direct page splits when we turn on dynamic kernel tracing
....
cat /proc/vmstat | grep -i direct_map_level
direct_map_level2_splits 784
direct_map_level3_splits 12

count(); }'

direct_map_level2_splits 789

size_t in cma_alloc is confusing since it makes people think it's byte
count, not pages. Change it to unsigned long[1].
The unsigned int in cma_release is also not right so change it. Since we
have unsigned long in cma_release, free_contig_range should also respect
it.

Patch series "Cleanup and fixup for mm/migrate.c", v3.
This series contains cleanups to remove unnecessary VM_BUG_ON_PAGE and rc
!= MIGRATEPAGE_SUCCESS check. Also use helper function to remove some
duplicated codes. What's more, this fixes potential deadlock in NUMA
balancing shared exec THP case and so on. More details can be found in
the respective changelogs.
This patch (of 5):
The putback_movable_page() is just called by putback_movable_pages() and
we know the page is locked and both PageMovable() and PageIsolated() is
checked right before calling putback_movable_page(). So we make it static
and remove all the 3 VM_BUG_ON_PAGE().

Pages containing buffer_heads that are in one of the per-CPU buffer_head
LRU caches will be pinned and thus cannot be migrated. This can prevent
CMA allocations from succeeding, which are often used on platforms with
co-processors (such as a DSP) that can only use physically contiguous
memory. It can also prevent memory hot-unplugging from succeeding,
which involves migrating at least MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE bytes of memory,
which ranges from 8 MiB to 1 GiB based on the architecture in use.
Correspondingly, invalidate the BH LRU caches before a migration starts
and stop any buffer_head from being cached in the LRU caches, until
migration has finished.

Currently, migrate_[prep|finish] is merely a wrapper of
lru_cache_[disable|enable]. There is not much to gain from having
additional abstraction.
Use lru_cache_[disable|enable] instead of migrate_[prep|finish], which
would be more descriptive.
note: migrate_prep_local in compaction.c changed into lru_add_drain to
avoid CPU schedule cost with involving many other CPUs to keep old
behavior.

LRU pagevec holds refcount of pages until the pagevec are drained. It
could prevent migration since the refcount of the page is greater than
the expection in migration logic. To mitigate the issue, callers of
migrate_pages drains LRU pagevec via migrate_prep or lru_add_drain_all
before migrate_pages call.
However, it's not enough because pages coming into pagevec after the
draining call still could stay at the pagevec so it could keep
preventing page migration. Since some callers of migrate_pages have
retrial logic with LRU draining, the page would migrate at next trail
but it is still fragile in that it doesn't close the fundamental race
between upcoming LRU pages into pagvec and migration so the migration
failure could cause contiguous memory allocation failure in the end.
To close the race, this patch disables lru caches(i.e, pagevec) during
ongoing migration until migrate is done.
Since it's really hard to reproduce, I measured how many times
migrate_pages retried with force mode(it is about a fallback to a sync
migration) with below debug code.
int migrate_pages(struct list_head *from, new_page_t get_new_page,
..
..
if (rc && reason == MR_CONTIG_RANGE && pass > 2) {
printk(KERN_ERR, "pfn 0x%lx reason %d", page_to_pfn(page), rc);
dump_page(page, "fail to migrate");
}
The test was repeating android apps launching with cma allocation in
background every five seconds. Total cma allocation count was about 500
during the testing. With this patch, the dump_page count was reduced
from 400 to 30.
The new interface is also useful for memory hotplug which currently
drains lru pcp caches after each migration failure. This is rather
suboptimal as it has to disrupt others running during the operation.
With the new interface the operation happens only once. This is also in
line with pcp allocator cache which are disabled for the offlining as
well.

The sysctl_compact_memory is mostly unused in mm/compaction.c It just
acts as a place holder for sysctl to store .data.
But the .data itself is not needed here.
So we can get ride of this variable completely and make .data as NULL.
This will also eliminate the extern declaration from header file. No
functionality is broken or changed this way.

Currently the number of deferred objects are per shrinker, but some
slabs, for example, vfs inode/dentry cache are per memcg, this would
result in poor isolation among memcgs.
The deferred objects typically are generated by __GFP_NOFS allocations,
one memcg with excessive __GFP_NOFS allocations may blow up deferred
objects, then other innocent memcgs may suffer from over shrink,
excessive reclaim latency, etc.
For example, two workloads run in memcgA and memcgB respectively,
workload in B is vfs heavy workload. Workload in A generates excessive
deferred objects, then B's vfs cache might be hit heavily (drop half of
caches) by B's limit reclaim or global reclaim.
We observed this hit in our production environment which was running vfs
heavy workload shown as the below tracing log:
<...>-409454 [016] .... 28286961.747146: mm_shrink_slab_start: super_cache_scan+0x0/0x1a0 ffff9a83046f3458:

cache items 246404277 delta 31345 total_scan 123202138
<...>-409454 [022] .... 28287105.928018: mm_shrink_slab_end: super_cache_scan+0x0/0x1a0 ffff9a83046f3458:
nid: 1 unused scan count 3641681686040 new scan count 3641798379189 total_scan 602
last shrinker return val 123186855
The vfs cache and page cache ratio was 10:1 on this machine, and half of
caches were dropped. This also resulted in significant amount of page
caches were dropped due to inodes eviction.
Make nr_deferred per memcg for memcg aware shrinkers would solve the
unfairness and bring better isolation.
The following patch will add nr_deferred to parent memcg when memcg
offline. To preserve nr_deferred when reparenting memcgs to root, root
memcg needs shrinker_info allocated too.
When memcg is not enabled (!CONFIG_MEMCG or memcg disabled), the
shrinker's nr_deferred would be used. And non memcg aware shrinkers use
shrinker's nr_deferred all the time.

Currently registered shrinker is indicated by non-NULL
shrinker->nr_deferred. This approach is fine with nr_deferred at the
shrinker level, but the following patches will move MEMCG_AWARE
shrinkers' nr_deferred to memcg level, so their shrinker->nr_deferred
would always be NULL. This would prevent the shrinkers from
unregistering correctly.
Remove SHRINKER_REGISTERING since we could check if shrinker is
registered successfully by the new flag.

The following patch is going to add nr_deferred into shrinker_map, the
change will make shrinker_map not only include map anymore, so rename it
to "memcg_shrinker_info". And this should make the patch adding
nr_deferred cleaner and readable and make review easier. Also remove the
"memcg_" prefix.

The shrinker map management is not purely memcg specific, it is at the
intersection between memory cgroup and shrinkers. It's allocation and
assignment of a structure, and the only memcg bit is the map is being
stored in a memcg structure. So move the shrinker_maps handling code
into vmscan.c for tighter integration with shrinker code, and remove the
"memcg_" prefix. There is no functional change.

RECLAIM_ZONE was assumed to be unused because it was never explicitly
used in the kernel. However, there were a number of places where it was
checked implicitly by checking 'node_reclaim_mode' for a zero value.
These zero checks are not great because it is not obvious what a zero
mode *means* in the code. Replace them with a helper which makes it
more obvious: node_reclaim_enabled().
This helper also provides a handy place to explicitly check the
RECLAIM_ZONE bit itself. Check it explicitly there to make it more
obvious where the bit can affect behavior.
This should have no functional impact.

This ioctl is how userspace ought to resolve "minor" userfaults. The
idea is, userspace is notified that a minor fault has occurred. It
might change the contents of the page using its second non-UFFD mapping,
or not. Then, it calls UFFDIO_CONTINUE to tell the kernel "I have
ensured the page contents are correct, carry on setting up the mapping".
Note that it doesn't make much sense to use UFFDIO_{COPY,ZEROPAGE} for
MINOR registered VMAs. ZEROPAGE maps the VMA to the zero page; but in
the minor fault case, we already have some pre-existing underlying page.
Likewise, UFFDIO_COPY isn't useful if we have a second non-UFFD mapping.
We'd just use memcpy() or similar instead.
It turns out hugetlb_mcopy_atomic_pte() already does very close to what
we want, if an existing page is provided via `struct page **pagep`. We
already special-case the behavior a bit for the UFFDIO_ZEROPAGE case, so
just extend that design: add an enum for the three modes of operation,
and make the small adjustments needed for the MCOPY_ATOMIC_CONTINUE
case. (Basically, look up the existing page, and avoid adding the
existing page to the page cache or calling set_page_huge_active() on
it.)

For background, mm/userfaultfd.c provides a general mcopy_atomic
implementation. But some types of memory (i.e., hugetlb and shmem) need
a slightly different implementation, so they provide their own helpers
for this. In other words, userfaultfd is the only caller of these
functions.
This patch achieves two things:
1. Don't spend time compiling code which will end up never being
referenced anyway (a small build time optimization).
2. In patches later in this series, we extend the signature of these
helpers with UFFD-specific state (a mode enumeration). Once this
happens, we *have to* either not compile the helpers, or
unconditionally define the UFFD-only state (which seems messier to me).
This includes the declarations in the headers, as otherwise they'd
yield warnings about implicitly defining the type of those arguments.

As the comment says: for the MINOR fault use case, although the page
might be present and populated in the other (non-UFFD-registered) half
of the mapping, it may be out of date, and we explicitly want userspace
to get a minor fault so it can check and potentially update the page's
contents.
Huge PMD sharing would prevent these faults from occurring for suitably
aligned areas, so disable it upon UFFD registration.

Patch series "userfaultfd: add minor fault handling", v9.
Overview
========
This series adds a new userfaultfd feature, UFFD_FEATURE_MINOR_HUGETLBFS.
When enabled (via the UFFDIO_API ioctl), this feature means that any
hugetlbfs VMAs registered with UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_MISSING will *also*
get events for "minor" faults. By "minor" fault, I mean the following
situation:
Let there exist two mappings (i.e., VMAs) to the same page(s) (shared
memory). One of the mappings is registered with userfaultfd (in minor
mode), and the other is not. Via the non-UFFD mapping, the underlying
pages have already been allocated & filled with some contents. The UFFD
mapping has not yet been faulted in; when it is touched for the first
time, this results in what I'm calling a "minor" fault. As a concrete
example, when working with hugetlbfs, we have huge_pte_none(), but
find_lock_page() finds an existing page.
We also add a new ioctl to resolve such faults: UFFDIO_CONTINUE. The idea
is, userspace resolves the fault by either a) doing nothing if the
contents are already correct, or b) updating the underlying contents using
the second, non-UFFD mapping (via memcpy/memset or similar, or something
fancier like RDMA, or etc...). In either case, userspace issues
UFFDIO_CONTINUE to tell the kernel "I have ensured the page contents are
correct, carry on setting up the mapping".
Use Case
========
Consider the use case of VM live migration (e.g. under QEMU/KVM):
1. While a VM is still running, we copy the contents of its memory to a
target machine. The pages are populated on the target by writing to the
non-UFFD mapping, using the setup described above. The VM is still running
(and therefore its memory is likely changing), so this may be repeated
several times, until we decide the target is "up to date enough".
2. We pause the VM on the source, and start executing on the target machine.
During this gap, the VM's user(s) will *see* a pause, so it is desirable to
minimize this window.
3. Between the last time any page was copied from the source to the target, and
when the VM was paused, the contents of that page may have changed - and
therefore the copy we have on the target machine is out of date. Although we
can keep track of which pages are out of date, for VMs with large amounts of
memory, it is "slow" to transfer this information to the target machine. We
want to resume execution before such a transfer would complete.
4. So, the guest begins executing on the target machine. The first time it
touches its memory (via the UFFD-registered mapping), userspace wants to
intercept this fault. Userspace checks whether or not the page is up to date,
and if not, copies the updated page from the source machine, via the non-UFFD
mapping. Finally, whether a copy was performed or not, userspace issues a
UFFDIO_CONTINUE ioctl to tell the kernel "I have ensured the page contents
are correct, carry on setting up the mapping".
We don't have to do all of the final updates on-demand. The userfaultfd manager
can, in the background, also copy over updated pages once it receives the map of
which pages are up-to-date or not.
Interaction with Existing APIs
==============================
Because this is a feature, a registered VMA could potentially receive both
missing and minor faults. I spent some time thinking through how the
existing API interacts with the new feature:
UFFDIO_CONTINUE cannot be used to resolve non-minor faults, as it does not
allocate a new page. If UFFDIO_CONTINUE is used on a non-minor fault:
- For non-shared memory or shmem, -EINVAL is returned.
- For hugetlb, -EFAULT is returned.
UFFDIO_COPY and UFFDIO_ZEROPAGE cannot be used to resolve minor faults.
Without modifications, the existing codepath assumes a new page needs to
be allocated. This is okay, since userspace must have a second
non-UFFD-registered mapping anyway, thus there isn't much reason to want
to use these in any case (just memcpy or memset or similar).
- If UFFDIO_COPY is used on a minor fault, -EEXIST is returned.
- If UFFDIO_ZEROPAGE is used on a minor fault, -EEXIST is returned (or -EINVAL
in the case of hugetlb, as UFFDIO_ZEROPAGE is unsupported in any case).
- UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT simply doesn't work with shared memory, and returns
-ENOENT in that case (regardless of the kind of fault).
Future Work
===========
This series only supports hugetlbfs. I have a second series in flight to
support shmem as well, extending the functionality. This series is more
mature than the shmem support at this point, and the functionality works
fully on hugetlbfs, so this series can be merged first and then shmem
support will follow.
This patch (of 6):
This feature allows userspace to intercept "minor" faults. By "minor"
faults, I mean the following situation:
Let there exist two mappings (i.e., VMAs) to the same page(s). One of the
mappings is registered with userfaultfd (in minor mode), and the other is
not. Via the non-UFFD mapping, the underlying pages have already been
allocated & filled with some contents. The UFFD mapping has not yet been
faulted in; when it is touched for the first time, this results in what
I'm calling a "minor" fault. As a concrete example, when working with
hugetlbfs, we have huge_pte_none(), but find_lock_page() finds an existing
page.
This commit adds the new registration mode, and sets the relevant flag on
the VMAs being registered. In the hugetlb fault path, if we find that we
have huge_pte_none(), but find_lock_page() does indeed find an existing
page, then we have a "minor" fault, and if the VMA has the userfaultfd
registration flag, we call into userfaultfd to handle it.
This is implemented as a new registration mode, instead of an API feature.
This is because the alternative implementation has significant drawbacks
[1].
However, doing it this was requires we allocate a VM_* flag for the new
registration mode. On 32-bit systems, there are no unused bits, so this
feature is only supported on architectures with
CONFIG_ARCH_USES_HIGH_VMA_FLAGS. When attempting to register a VMA in
MINOR mode on 32-bit architectures, we return -EINVAL.

alloc_contig_range() will fail if it finds a HugeTLB page within the

migrated as any LRU or Movable page, it does not make sense to bail out
without trying. Enable the interface to recognize in-use HugeTLB pages so
we can migrate them, and have much better chances to succeed the call.

alloc_contig_range will fail if it ever sees a HugeTLB page within the
range we are trying to allocate, even when that page is free and can be
easily reallocated.
This has proved to be problematic for some users of alloc_contic_range,
e.g: CMA and virtio-mem, where those would fail the call even when those
pages lay in ZONE_MOVABLE and are free.
We can do better by trying to replace such page.
Free hugepages are tricky to handle so as to no userspace application
notices disruption, we need to replace the current free hugepage with a
new one.
In order to do that, a new function called alloc_and_dissolve_huge_page is
introduced. This function will first try to get a new fresh hugepage, and
if it succeeds, it will replace the old one in the free hugepage pool.
The free page replacement is done under hugetlb_lock, so no external users
of hugetlb will notice the change. To allocate the new huge page, we use
alloc_buddy_huge_page(), so we do not have to deal with any counters, and
prep_new_huge_page() is not called. This is valulable because in case we
need to free the new page, we only need to call __free_pages().
Once we know that the page to be replaced is a genuine 0-refcounted huge
page, we remove the old page from the freelist by remove_hugetlb_page().
Then, we can call __prep_new_huge_page() and
__prep_account_new_huge_page() for the new huge page to properly
initialize it and increment the hstate->nr_huge_pages counter (previously
decremented by remove_hugetlb_page()). Once done, the page is enqueued by
enqueue_huge_page() and it is ready to be used.
There is one tricky case when page's refcount is 0 because it is in the
process of being released. A missing PageHugeFreed bit will tell us that
freeing is in flight so we retry after dropping the hugetlb_lock. The
race window should be small and the next retry should make a forward
progress.
E.g:
CPU0 CPU1
free_huge_page() isolate_or_dissolve_huge_page
PageHuge() == T
alloc_and_dissolve_huge_page
alloc_buddy_huge_page()
spin_lock_irq(hugetlb_lock)
// PageHuge() && !PageHugeFreed &&
// !PageCount()
spin_unlock_irq(hugetlb_lock)
spin_lock_irq(hugetlb_lock)
1) update_and_free_page
PageHuge() == F
__free_pages()
2) enqueue_huge_page
SetPageHugeFreed()
spin_unlock_irq(&hugetlb_lock)
spin_lock_irq(hugetlb_lock)
1) PageHuge() == F (freed by case#1 from CPU0)
2) PageHuge() == T
PageHugeFreed() == T
- proceed with replacing the page
In the case above we retry as the window race is quite small and we have
high chances to succeed next time.
With regard to the allocation, we restrict it to the node the page belongs
to with __GFP_THISNODE, meaning we do not fallback on other node's zones.
Note that gigantic hugetlb pages are fenced off since there is a cyclic
dependency between them and alloc_contig_range.

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.

Huge pmd sharing for hugetlbfs is racy with userfaultfd-wp because
userfaultfd-wp is always based on pgtable entries, so they cannot be
shared.
Walk the hugetlb range and unshare all such mappings if there is, right
before UFFDIO_REGISTER will succeed and return to userspace.
This will pair with want_pmd_share() in hugetlb code so that huge pmd
sharing is completely disabled for userfaultfd-wp registered range.

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.

Patch series "Remove nrexceptional tracking", v2.
We actually use nrexceptional for very little these days. It's a minor
pain to keep in sync with nrpages, but the pain becomes much bigger with
the THP patches because we don't know how many indices a shadow entry
occupies. It's easier to just remove it than keep it accurate.
Also, we save 8 bytes per inode which is nothing to sneeze at; on my
laptop, it would improve shmem_inode_cache from 22 to 23 objects per
16kB, and inode_cache from 26 to 27 objects. Combined, that saves
a megabyte of memory from a combined usage of 25MB for both caches.
Unfortunately, ext4 doesn't cross a magic boundary, so it doesn't save
any memory for ext4.
This patch (of 4):
Instead of checking the two counters (nrpages and nrexceptional), we can
just check whether i_pages is empty.

There are cases where the page_pool need to refill with pages from the
page allocator. Some workloads cause the page_pool to release pages
instead of recycling these pages.
For these workload it can improve performance to bulk alloc pages from the
page-allocator to refill the alloc cache.
For XDP-redirect workload with 100G mlx5 driver (that use page_pool)
redirecting xdp_frame packets into a veth, that does XDP_PASS to create an
SKB from the xdp_frame, which then cannot return the page to the
page_pool.

The proposed callers for the bulk allocator store pages from the bulk
allocator in an array. This patch adds an array-based interface to the
API to avoid multiple list iterations. The page list interface is
preserved to avoid requiring all users of the bulk API to allocate and
manage enough storage to store the pages.

This patch adds a new page allocator interface via alloc_pages_bulk, and
__alloc_pages_bulk_nodemask. A caller requests a number of pages to be
allocated and added to a list.
The API is not guaranteed to return the requested number of pages and
may fail if the preferred allocation zone has limited free memory, the
cpuset changes during the allocation or page debugging decides to fail
an allocation. It's up to the caller to request more pages in batch if
necessary.
Note that this implementation is not very efficient and could be
improved but it would require refactoring. The intent is to make it
available early to determine what semantics are required by different
callers. Once the full semantics are nailed down, it can be refactored.

When CONFIG_NUMA is enabled, alloc_pages() is a wrapper around
alloc_pages_current(). This is pointless, just implement alloc_pages()
directly.

There are only two callers of __alloc_pages() so prune the thicket of
alloc_page variants by combining the two functions together. Current
callers of __alloc_pages() simply add an extra 'NULL' parameter and
current callers of __alloc_pages_nodemask() call __alloc_pages() instead.

The naming convention used in include/linux/page-flags-layout.h:
*_SHIFT: the number of bits trying to allocate
*_WIDTH: the number of bits successfully allocated
So when it comes to LAST_CPUPID_WIDTH, we need to check whether all
previous *_WIDTH and LAST_CPUPID_SHIFT can fit into page flags. This
means we need to use NODES_WIDTH, not NODES_SHIFT.

This change uses the previously added memory initialization feature of
HW_TAGS KASAN routines for slab memory when init_on_free is enabled.
With this change, memory initialization memset() is no longer called when
both HW_TAGS KASAN and init_on_free are enabled. Instead, memory is
initialized in KASAN runtime.
For SLUB, the memory initialization memset() is moved into
slab_free_hook() that currently directly follows the initialization loop.
A new argument is added to slab_free_hook() that indicates whether to
initialize the memory or not.
To avoid discrepancies with which memory gets initialized that can be
caused by future changes, both KASAN hook and initialization memset() are
put together and a warning comment is added.
Combining setting allocation tags with memory initialization improves
HW_TAGS KASAN performance when init_on_free is enabled.

This patch changes the order in which memory initialization and page
poisoning hooks are called. This doesn't lead to any side-effects, as
whenever page poisoning is enabled, memory initialization gets disabled.

Currently, KASAN_SW_TAGS uses 0xFF as the default tag value for
unallocated memory. The underlying idea is that since that memory hasn't
been allocated yet, it's only supposed to be dereferenced through a
pointer with the native 0xFF tag.
While this is a good idea in terms on consistency, practically it doesn't
bring any benefit. Since the 0xFF pointer tag is a match-all tag, it
doesn't matter what tag the accessed memory has. No accesses through
0xFF-tagged pointers are considered buggy by KASAN.
This patch changes the default tag value for unallocated memory to 0xFE,
which is the tag KASAN uses for inaccessible memory. This doesn't affect
accesses through 0xFF-tagged pointer to this memory, but this allows KASAN
to detect wild and large out-of-bounds invalid memory accesses through
otherwise-tagged pointers.
This is a prepatory patch for the next one, which changes the tag-based
KASAN modes to not poison the boot memory.
