git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton: - Yu Zhao's Multi-Gen LRU patches are here. They've been under test in linux-next for a couple of months without, to my knowledge, any negative reports (or any positive ones, come to that). - Also the Maple Tree from Liam Howlett. An overlapping range-based tree for vmas. It it apparently slightly more efficient in its own right, but is mainly targeted at enabling work to reduce mmap_lock contention. Liam has identified a number of other tree users in the kernel which could be beneficially onverted to mapletrees. Yu Zhao has identified a hard-to-hit but "easy to fix" lockdep splat at [1]. This has yet to be addressed due to Liam's unfortunately timed vacation. He is now back and we'll get this fixed up. - Dmitry Vyukov introduces KMSAN: the Kernel Memory Sanitizer. It uses clang-generated instrumentation to detect used-unintialized bugs down to the single bit level. KMSAN keeps finding bugs. New ones, as well as the legacy ones. - Yang Shi adds a userspace mechanism (madvise) to induce a collapse of memory into THPs. - Zach O'Keefe has expanded Yang Shi's madvise(MADV_COLLAPSE) to support file/shmem-backed pages. - userfaultfd updates from Axel Rasmussen - zsmalloc cleanups from Alexey Romanov - cleanups from Miaohe Lin: vmscan, hugetlb_cgroup, hugetlb and memory-failure - Huang Ying adds enhancements to NUMA balancing memory tiering mode's page promotion, with a new way of detecting hot pages. - memcg updates from Shakeel Butt: charging optimizations and reduced memory consumption. - memcg cleanups from Kairui Song. - memcg fixes and cleanups from Johannes Weiner. - Vishal Moola provides more folio conversions - Zhang Yi removed ll_rw_block() :( - migration enhancements from Peter Xu - migration error-path bugfixes from Huang Ying - Aneesh Kumar added ability for a device driver to alter the memory tiering promotion paths. For optimizations by PMEM drivers, DRM drivers, etc. - vma merging improvements from Jakub Matěn. - NUMA hinting cleanups from David Hildenbrand. - xu xin added aditional userspace visibility into KSM merging activity. - THP & KSM code consolidation from Qi Zheng. - more folio work from Matthew Wilcox. - KASAN updates from Andrey Konovalov. - DAMON cleanups from Kaixu Xia. - DAMON work from SeongJae Park: fixes, cleanups. - hugetlb sysfs cleanups from Muchun Song. - Mike Kravetz fixes locking issues in hugetlbfs and in hugetlb core.

2022-09-26mm: multi-gen LRU: kill switchYu Zhao
Add /sys/kernel/mm/lru_gen/enabled as a kill switch. Components that can be disabled include: 0x0001: the multi-gen LRU core 0x0002: walking page table, when arch_has_hw_pte_young() returns true 0x0004: clearing the accessed bit in non-leaf PMD entries, when CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_NONLEAF_PMD_YOUNG=y [yYnN]: apply to all the components above E.g., echo y >/sys/kernel/mm/lru_gen/enabled cat /sys/kernel/mm/lru_gen/enabled 0x0007 echo 5 >/sys/kernel/mm/lru_gen/enabled cat /sys/kernel/mm/lru_gen/enabled 0x0005 NB: the page table walks happen on the scale of seconds under heavy memory pressure, in which case the mmap_lock contention is a lesser concern, compared with the LRU lock contention and the I/O congestion. So far the only well-known case of the mmap_lock contention happens on Android, due to Scudo [1] which allocates several thousand VMAs for merely a few hundred MBs. The SPF and the Maple Tree also have provided their own assessments [2][3]. However, if walking page tables does worsen the mmap_lock contention, the kill switch can be used to disable it. In this case the multi-gen LRU will suffer a minor performance degradation, as shown previously. Clearing the accessed bit in non-leaf PMD entries can also be disabled, since this behavior was not tested on x86 varieties other than Intel and AMD.

2022-09-26mm: multi-gen LRU: minimal implementationYu Zhao
To avoid confusion, the terms "promotion" and "demotion" will be applied to the multi-gen LRU, as a new convention; the terms "activation" and "deactivation" will be applied to the active/inactive LRU, as usual. The aging produces young generations. Given an lruvec, it increments max_seq when max_seq-min_seq+1 approaches MIN_NR_GENS. The aging promotes hot pages to the youngest generation when it finds them accessed through page tables; the demotion of cold pages happens consequently when it increments max_seq. Promotion in the aging path does not involve any LRU list operations, only the updates of the gen counter and lrugen->nr_pages[]; demotion, unless as the result of the increment of max_seq, requires LRU list operations, e.g., lru_deactivate_fn(). The aging has the complexity O(nr_hot_pages), since it is only interested in hot pages. The eviction consumes old generations. Given an lruvec, it increments min_seq when lrugen->lists[] indexed by min_seq%MAX_NR_GENS becomes empty. A feedback loop modeled after the PID controller monitors refaults over anon and file types and decides which type to evict when both types are available from the same generation. The protection of pages accessed multiple times through file descriptors takes place in the eviction path. Each generation is divided into multiple tiers. A page accessed N times through file descriptors is in tier order_base_2(N). Tiers do not have dedicated lrugen->lists[], only bits in folio->flags. The aforementioned feedback loop also monitors refaults over all tiers and decides when to protect pages in which tiers (N>1), using the first tier (N=0,1) as a baseline. The first tier contains single-use unmapped clean pages, which are most likely the best choices. In contrast to promotion in the aging path, the protection of a page in the eviction path is achieved by moving this page to the next generation, i.e., min_seq+1, if the feedback loop decides so. This approach has the following advantages: 1. It removes the cost of activation in the buffered access path by inferring whether pages accessed multiple times through file descriptors are statistically hot and thus worth protecting in the eviction path. 2. It takes pages accessed through page tables into account and avoids overprotecting pages accessed multiple times through file descriptors. (Pages accessed through page tables are in the first tier, since N=0.) 3. More tiers provide better protection for pages accessed more than twice through file descriptors, when under heavy buffered I/O workloads.

2022-09-26mm: multi-gen LRU: groundworkYu Zhao
Evictable pages are divided into multiple generations for each lruvec. The youngest generation number is stored in lrugen->max_seq for both anon and file types as they are aged on an equal footing. The oldest generation numbers are stored in lrugen->min_seq[] separately for anon and file types as clean file pages can be evicted regardless of swap constraints. These three variables are monotonically increasing. Generation numbers are truncated into order_base_2(MAX_NR_GENS+1) bits in order to fit into the gen counter in folio->flags. Each truncated generation number is an index to lrugen->lists[]. The sliding window technique is used to track at least MIN_NR_GENS and at most MAX_NR_GENS generations. The gen counter stores a value within [1, MAX_NR_GENS] while a page is on one of lrugen->lists[]. Otherwise it stores 0. There are two conceptually independent procedures: "the aging", which produces young generations, and "the eviction", which consumes old generations. They form a closed-loop system, i.e., "the page reclaim". Both procedures can be invoked from userspace for the purposes of working set estimation and proactive reclaim. These techniques are commonly used to optimize job scheduling (bin packing) in data centers [1][2]. To avoid confusion, the terms "hot" and "cold" will be applied to the multi-gen LRU, as a new convention; the terms "active" and "inactive" will be applied to the active/inactive LRU, as usual. The protection of hot pages and the selection of cold pages are based on page access channels and patterns. There are two access channels: one through page tables and the other through file descriptors. The protection of the former channel is by design stronger because: 1. The uncertainty in determining the access patterns of the former channel is higher due to the approximation of the accessed bit. 2. The cost of evicting the former channel is higher due to the TLB flushes required and the likelihood of encountering the dirty bit. 3. The penalty of underprotecting the former channel is higher because applications usually do not prepare themselves for major page faults like they do for blocked I/O. E.g., GUI applications commonly use dedicated I/O threads to avoid blocking rendering threads. There are also two access patterns: one with temporal locality and the other without. For the reasons listed above, the former channel is assumed to follow the former pattern unless VM_SEQ_READ or VM_RAND_READ is present; the latter channel is assumed to follow the latter pattern unless outlying refaults have been observed [3][4]. The next patch will address the "outlying refaults". Three macros, i.e., LRU_REFS_WIDTH, LRU_REFS_PGOFF and LRU_REFS_MASK, used later are added in this patch to make the entire patchset less diffy. A page is added to the youngest generation on faulting. The aging needs to check the accessed bit at least twice before handing this page over to the eviction. The first check takes care of the accessed bit set on the initial fault; the second check makes sure this page has not been used since then. This protocol, AKA second chance, requires a minimum of two generations, hence MIN_NR_GENS.

2022-07-21resource: Introduce alloc_free_mem_region()Dan Williams
The core of devm_request_free_mem_region() is a helper that searches for free space in iomem_resource and performs __request_region_locked() on the result of that search. The policy choices of the implementation conform to what CONFIG_DEVICE_PRIVATE users want which is memory that is immediately marked busy, and a preference to search for the first-fit free range in descending order from the top of the physical address space. CXL has a need for a similar allocator, but with the following tweaks: 1/ Search for free space in ascending order 2/ Search for free space relative to a given CXL window 3/ 'insert' rather than 'request' the new resource given downstream drivers from the CXL Region driver (like the pmem or dax drivers) are responsible for request_mem_region() when they activate the memory range. Rework __request_free_mem_region() into get_free_mem_region() which takes a set of GFR_* (Get Free Region) flags to control the allocation policy (ascending vs descending), and "busy" policy (insert_resource() vs request_region()). As part of the consolidation of the legacy GFR_REQUEST_REGION case with the new default of just inserting a new resource into the free space some minor cleanups like not checking for NULL before calling devres_free() (which does its own check) is included.

2022-06-28arch/*/: remove CONFIG_VIRT_TO_BUSArnd Bergmann
All architecture-independent users of virt_to_bus() and bus_to_virt() have been fixed to use the dma mapping interfaces or have been removed now. This means the definitions on most architectures, and the CONFIG_VIRT_TO_BUS symbol are now obsolete and can be removed. The only exceptions to this are a few network and scsi drivers for m68k Amiga and VME machines and ppc32 Macintosh. These drivers work correctly with the old interfaces and are probably not worth changing. On alpha and parisc, virt_to_bus() were still used in asm/floppy.h. alpha can use isa_virt_to_bus() like x86 does, and parisc can just open-code the virt_to_phys() here, as this is architecture specific code. I tried updating the bus-virt-phys-mapping.rst documentation, which started as an email from Linus to explain some details of the Linux-2.0 driver interfaces. The bits about virt_to_bus() were declared obsolete backin 2000, and the rest is not all that relevant any more, so in the end I just decided to remove the file completely.

2022-05-13mm/uffd: move USERFAULTFD configs into mm/Peter Xu
We used to have USERFAULTFD configs stored in init/. It makes sense as a start because that's the default place for storing syscall related configs. However userfaultfd evolved a bit in the past few years and some more config options were added. They're no longer related to syscalls and start to be not suitable to be kept in the init/ directory anymore, because they're pure mm concepts. But it's not ideal either to keep the userfaultfd configs separate from each other. Hence this patch moves the userfaultfd configs under init/ to be under mm/ so that we'll start to group all userfaultfd configs together. We do have quite a few examples of syscall related configs that are not put under init/Kconfig: FTRACE_SYSCALLS, SWAP, FILE_LOCKING, MEMFD_CREATE.. They all reside in the dir where they're more suitable for the concept. So it seems there's no restriction to keep the role of having syscall related CONFIG_* under init/ only.

2022-05-13mm/uffd: PTE_MARKER_UFFD_WPPeter Xu
This patch introduces the 1st user of pte marker: the uffd-wp marker. When the pte marker is installed with the uffd-wp bit set, it means this pte was wr-protected by uffd. We will use this special pte to arm the ptes that got either unmapped or swapped out for a file-backed region that was previously wr-protected. This special pte could trigger a page fault just like swap entries. This idea is greatly inspired by Hugh and Andrea in the discussion, which is referenced in the links below. Some helpers are introduced to detect whether a swap pte is uffd wr-protected. After the pte marker introduced, one swap pte can be wr-protected in two forms: either it is a normal swap pte and it has _PAGE_SWP_UFFD_WP set, or it's a pte marker that has PTE_MARKER_UFFD_WP set.

2022-05-13mm: introduce PTE_MARKER swap entryPeter Xu
Patch series "userfaultfd-wp: Support shmem and hugetlbfs", v8. Overview ======== Userfaultfd-wp anonymous support was merged two years ago. There're quite a few applications that started to leverage this capability either to take snapshots for user-app memory, or use it for full user controled swapping. This series tries to complete the feature for uffd-wp so as to cover all the RAM-based memory types. So far uffd-wp is the only missing piece of the rest features (uffd-missing & uffd-minor mode). One major reason to do so is that anonymous pages are sometimes not satisfying the need of applications, and there're growing users of either shmem and hugetlbfs for either sharing purpose (e.g., sharing guest mem between hypervisor process and device emulation process, shmem local live migration for upgrades), or for performance on tlb hits. All these mean that if a uffd-wp app wants to switch to any of the memory types, it'll stop working. I think it's worthwhile to have the kernel to cover all these aspects. This series chose to protect pages in pte level not page level. One major reason is safety. I have no idea how we could make it safe if any of the uffd-privileged app can wr-protect a page that any other application can use. It means this app can block any process potentially for any time it wants. The other reason is that it aligns very well with not only the anonymous uffd-wp solution, but also uffd as a whole. For example, userfaultfd is implemented fundamentally based on VMAs. We set flags to VMAs showing the status of uffd tracking. For another per-page based protection solution, it'll be crossing the fundation line on VMA-based, and it could simply be too far away already from what's called userfaultfd. PTE markers =========== The patchset is based on the idea called PTE markers. It was discussed in one of the mm alignment sessions, proposed starting from v6, and this is the 2nd version of it using PTE marker idea. PTE marker is a new type of swap entry that is ony applicable to file backed memories like shmem and hugetlbfs. It's used to persist some pte-level information even if the original present ptes in pgtable are zapped. Logically pte markers can store more than uffd-wp information, but so far only one bit is used for uffd-wp purpose. When the pte marker is installed with uffd-wp bit set, it means this pte is wr-protected by uffd. It solves the problem on e.g. file-backed memory mapped ptes got zapped due to any reason (e.g. thp split, or swapped out), we can still keep the wr-protect information in the ptes. Then when the page fault triggers again, we'll know this pte is wr-protected so we can treat the pte the same as a normal uffd wr-protected pte. The extra information is encoded into the swap entry, or swp_offset to be explicit, with the swp_type being PTE_MARKER. So far uffd-wp only uses one bit out of the swap entry, the rest bits of swp_offset are still reserved for other purposes. There're two configs to enable/disable PTE markers: CONFIG_PTE_MARKER CONFIG_PTE_MARKER_UFFD_WP We can set !PTE_MARKER to completely disable all the PTE markers, along with uffd-wp support. I made two config so we can also enable PTE marker but disable uffd-wp file-backed for other purposes. At the end of current series, I'll enable CONFIG_PTE_MARKER by default, but that patch is standalone and if anyone worries about having it by default, we can also consider turn it off by dropping that oneliner patch. So far I don't see a huge risk of doing so, so I kept that patch. In most cases, PTE markers should be treated as none ptes. It is because that unlike most of the other swap entry types, there's no PFN or block offset information encoded into PTE markers but some extra well-defined bits showing the status of the pte. These bits should only be used as extra data when servicing an upcoming page fault, and then we behave as if it's a none pte. I did spend a lot of time observing all the pte_none() users this time. It is indeed a challenge because there're a lot, and I hope I didn't miss a single of them when we should take care of pte markers. Luckily, I don't think it'll need to be considered in many cases, for example: boot code, arch code (especially non-x86), kernel-only page handlings (e.g. CPA), or device driver codes when we're tackling with pure PFN mappings. I introduced pte_none_mostly() in this series when we need to handle pte markers the same as none pte, the "mostly" is the other way to write "either none pte or a pte marker". I didn't replace pte_none() to cover pte markers for below reasons: - Very rare case of pte_none() callers will handle pte markers. E.g., all the kernel pages do not require knowledge of pte markers. So we don't pollute the major use cases. - Unconditionally change pte_none() semantics could confuse people, because pte_none() existed for so long a time. - Unconditionally change pte_none() semantics could make pte_none() slower even if in many cases pte markers do not exist. - There're cases where we'd like to handle pte markers differntly from pte_none(), so a full replace is also impossible. E.g. khugepaged should still treat pte markers as normal swap ptes rather than none ptes, because pte markers will always need a fault-in to merge the marker with a valid pte. Or the smap code will need to parse PTE markers not none ptes.

It can be installed for any pte that maps a file-backed memory when the pte is temporarily zapped, so as to maintain per-pte information. The information that kept in the pte is called a "marker". Here we define the marker as "unsigned long" just to match pgoff_t, however it will only work if it still fits in swp_offset(), which is e.g. currently 58 bits on x86_64. A new config CONFIG_PTE_MARKER is introduced too; it's by default off. A bunch of helpers are defined altogether to service the rest of the pte marker code.

2022-04-28mm/mmap: add new config ARCH_HAS_VM_GET_PAGE_PROTAnshuman Khandual
Patch series "mm/mmap: Drop arch_vm_get_page_prot() and arch_filter_pgprot()", v7. protection_map[] is an array based construct that translates given vm_flags combination. This array contains page protection map, which is populated by the platform via [__S000 .. __S111] and [__P000 .. __P111] exported macros. Primary usage for protection_map[] is for vm_get_page_prot(), which is used to determine page protection value for a given vm_flags. vm_get_page_prot() implementation, could again call platform overrides arch_vm_get_page_prot() and arch_filter_pgprot(). Some platforms override protection_map[] that was originally built with __SXXX/__PXXX with different runtime values. Currently there are multiple layers of abstraction i.e __SXXX/__PXXX macros , protection_map[], arch_vm_get_page_prot() and arch_filter_pgprot() built between the platform and generic MM, finally defining vm_get_page_prot(). Hence this series proposes to drop later two abstraction levels and instead just move the responsibility of defining vm_get_page_prot() to the platform (still utilizing generic protection_map[] array) itself making it clean and simple. This first introduces ARCH_HAS_VM_GET_PAGE_PROT which enables the platforms to define custom vm_get_page_prot(). This starts converting platforms that define the overrides arch_filter_pgprot() or arch_vm_get_page_prot() which enables for those constructs to be dropped off completely. The series has been inspired from an earlier discuss with Christoph Hellwig https://lore.kernel.org/all/1632712920-8171-1-git-send-email-anshuman.khandual@arm.com/ This patch (of 7): Add a new config ARCH_HAS_VM_GET_PAGE_PROT, which when subscribed enables a given platform to define its own vm_get_page_prot() but still utilizing the generic protection_map[] array.

2022-03-22mm: enforce pageblock_order < MAX_ORDERDavid Hildenbrand
Some places in the kernel don't really expect pageblock_order >= MAX_ORDER, and it looks like this is only possible in corner cases: 1) CONFIG_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT we'll end up freeing pageblock_order pages via __free_pages_core(), which cannot possibly work. 2) find_zone_movable_pfns_for_nodes() will roundup the ZONE_MOVABLE start PFN to MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES. Consequently with a bigger pageblock_order, we could have a single pageblock partially managed by two zones. 3) compaction code runs into __fragmentation_index() with order >= MAX_ORDER, when checking WARN_ON_ONCE(order >= MAX_ORDER). [1] 4) mm/page_reporting.c won't be reporting any pages with default page_reporting_order == pageblock_order, as we'll be skipping the reporting loop inside page_reporting_process_zone(). 5) __rmqueue_fallback() will never be able to steal with ALLOC_NOFRAGMENT. pageblock_order >= MAX_ORDER is weird either way: it's a pure optimization for making alloc_contig_range(), as used for allcoation of gigantic pages, a little more reliable to succeed. However, if there is demand for somewhat reliable allocation of gigantic pages, affected setups should be using CMA or boottime allocations instead. So let's make sure that pageblock_order < MAX_ORDER and simplify.

2022-03-03mm: remove the extra ZONE_DEVICE struct page refcountChristoph Hellwig
ZONE_DEVICE struct pages have an extra reference count that complicates the code for put_page() and several places in the kernel that need to check the reference count to see that a page is not being used (gup, compaction, migration, etc.). Clean up the code so the reference count doesn't need to be treated specially for ZONE_DEVICE pages. Note that this excludes the special idle page wakeup for fsdax pages, which still happens at refcount 1. This is a separate issue and will be sorted out later. Given that only fsdax pages require the notifiacation when the refcount hits 1 now, the PAGEMAP_OPS Kconfig symbol can go away and be replaced with a FS_DAX check for this hook in the put_page fastpath.

2022-02-25usercopy: Check valid lifetime via stack depthKees Cook
One of the things that CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY sanity-checks is whether an object that is about to be copied to/from userspace is overlapping the stack at all. If it is, it performs a number of inexpensive bounds checks. One of the finer-grained checks is whether an object crosses stack frames within the stack region. Doing this on x86 with CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER was cheap/easy. Doing it with ORC was deemed too heavy, and was left out (a while ago), leaving the courser whole-stack check. The LKDTM tests USERCOPY_STACK_FRAME_TO and USERCOPY_STACK_FRAME_FROM try to exercise these cross-frame cases to validate the defense is working. They have been failing ever since ORC was added (which was expected). While Muhammad was investigating various LKDTM failures[1], he asked me for additional details on them, and I realized that when exact stack frame boundary checking is not available (i.e. everything except x86 with FRAME_POINTER), it could check if a stack object is at least "current depth valid", in the sense that any object within the stack region but not between start-of-stack and current_stack_pointer should be considered unavailable (i.e. its lifetime is from a call no longer present on the stack). Introduce ARCH_HAS_CURRENT_STACK_POINTER to track which architectures have actually implemented the common global register alias. Additionally report usercopy bounds checking failures with an offset from current_stack_pointer, which may assist with diagnosing failures. The LKDTM USERCOPY_STACK_FRAME_TO and USERCOPY_STACK_FRAME_FROM tests (once slightly adjusted in a separate patch) pass again with this fixed.

2022-01-15mm: add a field to store names for private anonymous memoryColin Cross
In many userspace applications, and especially in VM based applications like Android uses heavily, there are multiple different allocators in use. At a minimum there is libc malloc and the stack, and in many cases there are libc malloc, the stack, direct syscalls to mmap anonymous memory, and multiple VM heaps (one for small objects, one for big objects, etc.). Each of these layers usually has its own tools to inspect its usage; malloc by compiling a debug version, the VM through heap inspection tools, and for direct syscalls there is usually no way to track them. On Android we heavily use a set of tools that use an extended version of the logic covered in Documentation/vm/pagemap.txt to walk all pages mapped in userspace and slice their usage by process, shared (COW) vs. unique mappings, backing, etc. This can account for real physical memory usage even in cases like fork without exec (which Android uses heavily to share as many private COW pages as possible between processes), Kernel SamePage Merging, and clean zero pages. It produces a measurement of the pages that only exist in that process (USS, for unique), and a measurement of the physical memory usage of that process with the cost of shared pages being evenly split between processes that share them (PSS). If all anonymous memory is indistinguishable then figuring out the real physical memory usage (PSS) of each heap requires either a pagemap walking tool that can understand the heap debugging of every layer, or for every layer's heap debugging tools to implement the pagemap walking logic, in which case it is hard to get a consistent view of memory across the whole system. Tracking the information in userspace leads to all sorts of problems. It either needs to be stored inside the process, which means every process has to have an API to export its current heap information upon request, or it has to be stored externally in a filesystem that somebody needs to clean up on crashes. It needs to be readable while the process is still running, so it has to have some sort of synchronization with every layer of userspace. Efficiently tracking the ranges requires reimplementing something like the kernel vma trees, and linking to it from every layer of userspace. It requires more memory, more syscalls, more runtime cost, and more complexity to separately track regions that the kernel is already tracking. This patch adds a field to /proc/pid/maps and /proc/pid/smaps to show a userspace-provided name for anonymous vmas. The names of named anonymous vmas are shown in /proc/pid/maps and /proc/pid/smaps as [anon:<name>]. Userspace can set the name for a region of memory by calling prctl(PR_SET_VMA, PR_SET_VMA_ANON_NAME, start, len, (unsigned long)name) Setting the name to NULL clears it. The name length limit is 80 bytes including NUL-terminator and is checked to contain only printable ascii characters (including space), except '[',']','\','$' and '`'. Ascii strings are being used to have a descriptive identifiers for vmas, which can be understood by the users reading /proc/pid/maps or /proc/pid/smaps. Names can be standardized for a given system and they can include some variable parts such as the name of the allocator or a library, tid of the thread using it, etc. The name is stored in a pointer in the shared union in vm_area_struct that points to a null terminated string. Anonymous vmas with the same name (equivalent strings) and are otherwise mergeable will be merged. The name pointers are not shared between vmas even if they contain the same name. The name pointer is stored in a union with fields that are only used on file-backed mappings, so it does not increase memory usage. CONFIG_ANON_VMA_NAME kernel configuration is introduced to enable this feature. It keeps the feature disabled by default to prevent any additional memory overhead and to avoid confusing procfs parsers on systems which are not ready to support named anonymous vmas. The patch is based on the original patch developed by Colin Cross, more specifically on its latest version [1] posted upstream by Sumit Semwal. It used a userspace pointer to store vma names. In that design, name pointers could be shared between vmas. However during the last upstreaming attempt, Kees Cook raised concerns [2] about this approach and suggested to copy the name into kernel memory space, perform validity checks [3] and store as a string referenced from vm_area_struct. One big concern is about fork() performance which would need to strdup anonymous vma names. Dave Hansen suggested experimenting with worst-case scenario of forking a process with 64k vmas having longest possible names [4]. I ran this experiment on an ARM64 Android device and recorded a worst-case regression of almost 40% when forking such a process. This regression is addressed in the followup patch which replaces the pointer to a name with a refcounted structure that allows sharing the name pointer between vmas of the same name. Instead of duplicating the string during fork() or when splitting a vma it increments the refcount.

Note that assigning an attribute to a virtual memory area might prevent it from being merged with adjacent virtual memory areas due to the difference in that attribute's value. Currently, arg2 must be one of: PR_SET_VMA_ANON_NAME Set a name for anonymous virtual memory areas. arg5 should be a pointer to a null-terminated string containing the name. The name length including null byte cannot exceed 80 bytes. If arg5 is NULL, the name of the appropriate anonymous virtual memory areas will be reset. The name can contain only printable ascii characters (including space), except '[',']','\','$' and '`'.

2021-11-20kmap_local: don't assume kmap PTEs are linear arrays in memoryArd Biesheuvel
The kmap_local conversion broke the ARM architecture, because the new code assumes that all PTEs used for creating kmaps form a linear array in memory, and uses array indexing to look up the kmap PTE belonging to a certain kmap index. On ARM, this cannot work, not only because the PTE pages may be non-adjacent in memory, but also because ARM/!LPAE interleaves hardware entries and extended entries (carrying software-only bits) in a way that is not compatible with array indexing. Fortunately, this only seems to affect configurations with more than 8 CPUs, due to the way the per-CPU kmap slots are organized in memory. Work around this by permitting an architecture to set a Kconfig symbol that signifies that the kmap PTEs do not form a lineary array in memory, and so the only way to locate the appropriate one is to walk the page tables.

2021-11-09kernel/resource: disallow access to exclusive system RAM regionsDavid Hildenbrand
virtio-mem dynamically exposes memory inside a device memory region as system RAM to Linux, coordinating with the hypervisor which parts are actually "plugged" and consequently usable/accessible. On the one hand, the virtio-mem driver adds/removes whole memory blocks, creating/removing busy IORESOURCE_SYSTEM_RAM resources, on the other hand, it logically (un)plugs memory inside added memory blocks, dynamically either exposing them to the buddy or hiding them from the buddy and marking them PG_offline. In contrast to physical devices, like a DIMM, the virtio-mem driver is required to actually make use of any of the device-provided memory, because it performs the handshake with the hypervisor. virtio-mem memory cannot simply be access via /dev/mem without a driver. There is no safe way to: a) Access plugged memory blocks via /dev/mem, as they might contain unplugged holes or might get silently unplugged by the virtio-mem driver and consequently turned inaccessible. b) Access unplugged memory blocks via /dev/mem because the virtio-mem driver is required to make them actually accessible first. The virtio-spec states that unplugged memory blocks MUST NOT be written, and only selected unplugged memory blocks MAY be read. We want to make sure, this is the case in sane environments -- where the virtio-mem driver was loaded. We want to make sure that in a sane environment, nobody "accidentially" accesses unplugged memory inside the device managed region. For example, a user might spot a memory region in /proc/iomem and try accessing it via /dev/mem via gdb or dumping it via something else. By the time the mmap() happens, the memory might already have been removed by the virtio-mem driver silently: the mmap() would succeeed and user space might accidentially access unplugged memory. So once the driver was loaded and detected the device along the device-managed region, we just want to disallow any access via /dev/mem to it. In an ideal world, we would mark the whole region as busy ("owned by a driver") and exclude it; however, that would be wrong, as we don't really have actual system RAM at these ranges added to Linux ("busy system RAM"). Instead, we want to mark such ranges as "not actual busy system RAM but still soft-reserved and prepared by a driver for future use." Let's teach iomem_is_exclusive() to reject access to any range with "IORESOURCE_SYSTEM_RAM | IORESOURCE_EXCLUSIVE", even if not busy and even if "iomem=relaxed" is set. Introduce EXCLUSIVE_SYSTEM_RAM to make it easier for applicable drivers to depend on this setting in their Kconfig. For now, there are no applicable ranges and we'll modify virtio-mem next to properly set IORESOURCE_EXCLUSIVE on the parent resource container it creates to contain all actual busy system RAM added via add_memory_driver_managed().

2021-11-06mm/memory_hotplug: restrict CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG to 64 bitDavid Hildenbrand
32 bit support is broken in various ways: for example, we can online memory that should actually go to ZONE_HIGHMEM to ZONE_MOVABLE or in some cases even to one of the other kernel zones. We marked it BROKEN in commit b59d02ed0869 ("mm/memory_hotplug: disable the functionality for 32b") almost one year ago. According to that commit it might be broken at least since 2017. Further, there is hardly a sane use case nowadays. Let's just depend completely on 64bit, dropping the "BROKEN" dependency to make clear that we are not going to support it again. Next, we'll remove some HIGHMEM leftovers from memory hotplug code to clean up.

2021-09-08mm/idle_page_tracking: make PG_idle reusableSeongJae Park
PG_idle and PG_young allow the two PTE Accessed bit users, Idle Page Tracking and the reclaim logic concurrently work while not interfering with each other. That is, when they need to clear the Accessed bit, they set PG_young to represent the previous state of the bit, respectively. And when they need to read the bit, if the bit is cleared, they further read the PG_young to know whether the other has cleared the bit meanwhile or not. For yet another user of the PTE Accessed bit, we could add another page flag, or extend the mechanism to use the flags. For the DAMON usecase, however, we don't need to do that just yet. IDLE_PAGE_TRACKING and DAMON are mutually exclusive, so there's only ever going to be one user of the current set of flags. In this commit, we split out the CONFIG options to allow for the use of PG_young and PG_idle outside of idle page tracking. In the next commit, DAMON's reference implementation of the virtual memory address space monitoring primitives will use it.

2021-09-08mm: introduce Data Access MONitor (DAMON)SeongJae Park
Patch series "Introduce Data Access MONitor (DAMON)", v34. Introduction ============ DAMON is a data access monitoring framework for the Linux kernel. The core mechanisms of DAMON called 'region based sampling' and 'adaptive regions adjustment' (refer to 'mechanisms.rst' in the 11th patch of this patchset for the detail) make it - accurate (The monitored information is useful for DRAM level memory management. It might not appropriate for Cache-level accuracy, though.), - light-weight (The monitoring overhead is low enough to be applied online while making no impact on the performance of the target workloads.), and - scalable (the upper-bound of the instrumentation overhead is controllable regardless of the size of target workloads.). Using this framework, therefore, several memory management mechanisms such as reclamation and THP can be optimized to aware real data access patterns. Experimental access pattern aware memory management optimization works that incurring high instrumentation overhead will be able to have another try. Though DAMON is for kernel subsystems, it can be easily exposed to the user space by writing a DAMON-wrapper kernel subsystem. Then, user space users who have some special workloads will be able to write personalized tools or applications for deeper understanding and specialized optimizations of their systems. DAMON is also merged in two public Amazon Linux kernel trees that based on v5.4.y[1] and v5.10.y[2]. [1] https://github.com/amazonlinux/linux/tree/amazon-5.4.y/master/mm/damon [2] https://github.com/amazonlinux/linux/tree/amazon-5.10.y/master/mm/damon The userspace tool[1] is available, released under GPLv2, and actively being maintained. I am also planning to implement another basic user interface in perf[2]. Also, the basic test suite for DAMON is available under GPLv2[3]. [1] https://github.com/awslabs/damo [2] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20210107120729.22328-1-sjpark@amazon.com/ [3] https://github.com/awslabs/damon-tests Long-term Plan -------------- DAMON is a part of a project called Data Access-aware Operating System (DAOS). As the name implies, I want to improve the performance and efficiency of systems using fine-grained data access patterns. The optimizations are for both kernel and user spaces. I will therefore modify or create kernel subsystems, export some of those to user space and implement user space library / tools. Below shows the layers and components for the project. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Primitives: PTE Accessed bit, PG_idle, rmap, (Intel CMT), ... Framework: DAMON Features: DAMOS, virtual addr, physical addr, ... Applications: DAMON-debugfs, (DARC), ... ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ KERNEL SPACE ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Raw Interface: debugfs, (sysfs), (damonfs), tracepoints, (sys_damon), ... vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv USER SPACE vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv Library: (libdamon), ... Tools: DAMO, (perf), ... --------------------------------------------------------------------------- The components in parentheses or marked as '...' are not implemented yet but in the future plan. IOW, those are the TODO tasks of DAOS project. For more detail, please refer to the plans: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20201202082731.24828-1-sjpark@amazon.com/ Evaluations =========== We evaluated DAMON's overhead, monitoring quality and usefulness using 24 realistic workloads on my QEMU/KVM based virtual machine running a kernel that v24 DAMON patchset is applied. DAMON is lightweight. It increases system memory usage by 0.39% and slows target workloads down by 1.16%. DAMON is accurate and useful for memory management optimizations. An experimental DAMON-based operation scheme for THP, namely 'ethp', removes 76.15% of THP memory overheads while preserving 51.25% of THP speedup. Another experimental DAMON-based 'proactive reclamation' implementation, 'prcl', reduces 93.38% of residential sets and 23.63% of system memory footprint while incurring only 1.22% runtime overhead in the best case (parsec3/freqmine). NOTE that the experimental THP optimization and proactive reclamation are not for production but only for proof of concepts. Please refer to the official document[1] or "Documentation/admin-guide/mm: Add a document for DAMON" patch in this patchset for detailed evaluation setup and results. [1] https://damonitor.github.io/doc/html/latest-damon/admin-guide/mm/damon/eval.html Real-world User Story ===================== In summary, DAMON has used on production systems and proved its usefulness. DAMON as a profiler ------------------- We analyzed characteristics of a large scale production systems of our customers using DAMON. The systems utilize 70GB DRAM and 36 CPUs. From this, we were able to find interesting things below. There were obviously different access pattern under idle workload and active workload. Under the idle workload, it accessed large memory regions with low frequency, while the active workload accessed small memory regions with high freuqnecy. DAMON found a 7GB memory region that showing obviously high access frequency under the active workload. We believe this is the performance-effective working set and need to be protected. There was a 4KB memory region that showing highest access frequency under not only active but also idle workloads. We think this must be a hottest code section like thing that should never be paged out. For this analysis, DAMON used only 0.3-1% of single CPU time. Because we used recording-based analysis, it consumed about 3-12 MB of disk space per 20 minutes. This is only small amount of disk space, but we can further reduce the disk usage by using non-recording-based DAMON features. I'd like to argue that only DAMON can do such detailed analysis (finding 4KB highest region in 70GB memory) with the light overhead. DAMON as a system optimization tool ----------------------------------- We also found below potential performance problems on the systems and made DAMON-based solutions. The system doesn't want to make the workload suffer from the page reclamation and thus it utilizes enough DRAM but no swap device. However, we found the system is actively reclaiming file-backed pages, because the system has intensive file IO. The file IO turned out to be not performance critical for the workload, but the customer wanted to ensure performance critical file-backed pages like code section to not mistakenly be evicted. Using direct IO should or `mlock()` would be a straightforward solution, but modifying the user space code is not easy for the customer. Alternatively, we could use DAMON-based operation scheme[1]. By using it, we can ask DAMON to track access frequency of each region and make 'process_madvise(MADV_WILLNEED)[2]' call for regions having specific size and access frequency for a time interval. We also found the system is having high number of TLB misses. We tried 'always' THP enabled policy and it greatly reduced TLB misses, but the page reclamation also been more frequent due to the THP internal fragmentation caused memory bloat. We could try another DAMON-based operation scheme that applies 'MADV_HUGEPAGE' to memory regions having >=2MB size and high access frequency, while applying 'MADV_NOHUGEPAGE' to regions having <2MB size and low access frequency. We do not own the systems so we only reported the analysis results and possible optimization solutions to the customers.

One recommended usage of it is working set size detection. Users can do that by 1. find PFN of each page for workloads in interest, 2. set all the pages as idle by doing writes to the bitmap file, 3. wait until the workload accesses its working set, and 4. read the idleness of the pages again and count pages became not idle. NOTE: While Idle Page Tracking is for user space users, DAMON is primarily designed for kernel subsystems though it can easily exposed to the user space. Hence, this section only assumes such user space use of DAMON. For what use cases Idle Page Tracking would be better? ------------------------------------------------------ 1. Flexible usecases other than hotness monitoring. Because Idle Page Tracking allows users to control the primitive (Page idleness) by themselves, Idle Page Tracking users can do anything they want. Meanwhile, DAMON is primarily designed to monitor the hotness of each memory region. For this, DAMON asks users to provide sampling interval and aggregation interval. For the reason, there could be some use case that using Idle Page Tracking is simpler. 2. Physical memory monitoring. Idle Page Tracking receives PFN range as input, so natively supports physical memory monitoring. DAMON is designed to be extensible for multiple address spaces and use cases by implementing and using primitives for the given use case. Therefore, by theory, DAMON has no limitation in the type of target address space as long as primitives for the given address space exists. However, the default primitives introduced by this patchset supports only virtual address spaces. Therefore, for physical memory monitoring, you should implement your own primitives and use it, or simply use Idle Page Tracking. Nonetheless, RFC patchsets[1] for the physical memory address space primitives is already available. It also supports user memory same to Idle Page Tracking. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20200831104730.28970-1-sjpark@amazon.com/ For what use cases DAMON is better? ----------------------------------- 1. Hotness Monitoring. Idle Page Tracking let users know only if a page frame is accessed or not. For hotness check, the user should write more code and use more memory. DAMON do that by itself. 2. Low Monitoring Overhead DAMON receives user's monitoring request with one step and then provide the results. So, roughly speaking, DAMON require only O(1) user/kernel context switches. In case of Idle Page Tracking, however, because the interface receives contiguous page frames, the number of user/kernel context switches increases as the monitoring target becomes complex and huge. As a result, the context switch overhead could be not negligible. Moreover, DAMON is born to handle with the monitoring overhead. Because the core mechanism is pure logical, Idle Page Tracking users might be able to implement the mechanism on their own, but it would be time consuming and the user/kernel context switching will still more frequent than that of DAMON. Also, the kernel subsystems cannot use the logic in this case. 3. Page granularity working set size detection. Until v22 of this patchset, this was categorized as the thing Idle Page Tracking could do better, because DAMON basically maintains additional metadata for each of the monitoring target regions. So, in the page granularity working set size detection use case, DAMON would incur (number of monitoring target pages * size of metadata) memory overhead. Size of the single metadata item is about 54 bytes, so assuming 4KB pages, about 1.3% of monitoring target pages will be additionally used. All essential metadata for Idle Page Tracking are embedded in 'struct page' and page table entries. Therefore, in this use case, only one counter variable for working set size accounting is required if Idle Page Tracking is used. There are more details to consider, but roughly speaking, this is true in most cases. However, the situation changed from v23. Now DAMON supports arbitrary types of monitoring targets, which don't use the metadata. Using that, DAMON can do the working set size detection with no additional space overhead but less user-kernel context switch. A first draft for the implementation of monitoring primitives for this usage is available in a DAMON development tree[1]. An RFC patchset for it based on this patchset will also be available soon. Since v24, the arbitrary type support is dropped from this patchset because this patchset doesn't introduce real use of the type. You can still get it from the DAMON development tree[2], though. [1] https://github.com/sjp38/linux/tree/damon/pgidle_hack [2] https://github.com/sjp38/linux/tree/damon/master 4. More future usecases While Idle Page Tracking has tight coupling with base primitives (PG_Idle and page table Accessed bits), DAMON is designed to be extensible for many use cases and address spaces. If you need some special address type or want to use special h/w access check primitives, you can write your own primitives for that and configure DAMON to use those. Therefore, if your use case could be changed a lot in future, using DAMON could be better. Can I use both Idle Page Tracking and DAMON? -------------------------------------------- Yes, though using them concurrently for overlapping memory regions could result in interference to each other. Nevertheless, such use case would be rare or makes no sense at all. Even in the case, the noise would bot be really significant. So, you can choose whatever you want depending on the characteristics of your use cases. More Information ================ We prepared a showcase web site[1] that you can get more information.

For example: $ git clone https://github.com/sjp38/damon-patches && cd damon-patches $ diff -u damon/v33 damon/v34 Sequence Of Patches =================== First three patches implement the core logics of DAMON. The 1st patch introduces basic sampling based hotness monitoring for arbitrary types of targets. Following two patches implement the core mechanisms for control of overhead and accuracy, namely regions based sampling (patch 2) and adaptive regions adjustment (patch 3). Now the essential parts of DAMON is complete, but it cannot work unless someone provides monitoring primitives for a specific use case. The following two patches make it just work for virtual address spaces monitoring. The 4th patch makes 'PG_idle' can be used by DAMON and the 5th patch implements the virtual memory address space specific monitoring primitives using page table Accessed bits and the 'PG_idle' page flag. Now DAMON just works for virtual address space monitoring via the kernel space api. To let the user space users can use DAMON, following four patches add interfaces for them. The 6th patch adds a tracepoint for monitoring results. The 7th patch implements a DAMON application kernel module, namely damon-dbgfs, that simply wraps DAMON and exposes DAMON interface to the user space via the debugfs interface. The 8th patch further exports pid of monitoring thread (kdamond) to user space for easier cpu usage accounting, and the 9th patch makes the debugfs interface to support multiple contexts. Three patches for maintainability follows. The 10th patch adds documentations for both the user space and the kernel space. The 11th patch provides unit tests (based on the kunit) while the 12th patch adds user space tests (based on the kselftest). Finally, the last patch (13th) updates the MAINTAINERS file. This patch (of 13): DAMON is a data access monitoring framework for the Linux kernel. The core mechanisms of DAMON make it - accurate (the monitoring output is useful enough for DRAM level performance-centric memory management; It might be inappropriate for CPU cache levels, though), - light-weight (the monitoring overhead is normally low enough to be applied online), and - scalable (the upper-bound of the overhead is in constant range regardless of the size of target workloads). Using this framework, hence, we can easily write efficient kernel space data access monitoring applications. For example, the kernel's memory management mechanisms can make advanced decisions using this. Experimental data access aware optimization works that incurring high access monitoring overhead could again be implemented on top of this. Due to its simple and flexible interface, providing user space interface would be also easy. Then, user space users who have some special workloads can write personalized applications for better understanding and optimizations of their workloads and systems. === Nevertheless, this commit is defining and implementing only basic access check part without the overhead-accuracy handling core logic. The basic access check is as below. The output of DAMON says what memory regions are how frequently accessed for a given duration. The resolution of the access frequency is controlled by setting ``sampling interval`` and ``aggregation interval``. In detail, DAMON checks access to each page per ``sampling interval`` and aggregates the results. In other words, counts the number of the accesses to each region. After each ``aggregation interval`` passes, DAMON calls callback functions that previously registered by users so that users can read the aggregated results and then clears the results. This can be described in below simple pseudo-code:: init() while monitoring_on: for page in monitoring_target: if accessed(page): nr_accesses[page] += 1 if time() % aggregation_interval == 0: for callback in user_registered_callbacks: callback(monitoring_target, nr_accesses) for page in monitoring_target: nr_accesses[page] = 0 if time() % update_interval == 0: update() sleep(sampling interval) The target regions constructed at the beginning of the monitoring and updated after each ``regions_update_interval``, because the target regions could be dynamically changed (e.g., mmap() or memory hotplug). The monitoring overhead of this mechanism will arbitrarily increase as the size of the target workload grows. The basic monitoring primitives for actual access check and dynamic target regions construction aren't in the core part of DAMON. Instead, it allows users to implement their own primitives that are optimized for their use case and configure DAMON to use those. In other words, users cannot use current version of DAMON without some additional works. Following commits will implement the core mechanisms for the overhead-accuracy control and default primitives implementations.

2021-09-08mm: remove pfn_valid_within() and CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONEMike Rapoport
Patch series "mm: remove pfn_valid_within() and CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE". After recent updates to freeing unused parts of the memory map, no architecture can have holes in the memory map within a pageblock. This makes pfn_valid_within() check and CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE configuration option redundant. The first patch removes them both in a mechanical way and the second patch simplifies memory_hotplug::test_pages_in_a_zone() that had pfn_valid_within() surrounded by more logic than simple if. This patch (of 2): After recent changes in freeing of the unused parts of the memory map and rework of pfn_valid() in arm and arm64 there are no architectures that can have holes in the memory map within a pageblock and so nothing can enable CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE which guards non trivial implementation of pfn_valid_within(). With that, pfn_valid_within() is always hardwired to 1 and can be completely removed. Remove calls to pfn_valid_within() and CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE.

2021-07-08mm: introduce memfd_secret system call to create "secret" memory areasMike Rapoport
Introduce "memfd_secret" system call with the ability to create memory areas visible only in the context of the owning process and not mapped not only to other processes but in the kernel page tables as well. The secretmem feature is off by default and the user must explicitly enable it at the boot time. Once secretmem is enabled, the user will be able to create a file descriptor using the memfd_secret() system call. The memory areas created by mmap() calls from this file descriptor will be unmapped from the kernel direct map and they will be only mapped in the page table of the processes that have access to the file descriptor. Secretmem is designed to provide the following protections: * Enhanced protection (in conjunction with all the other in-kernel attack prevention systems) against ROP attacks. Seceretmem makes "simple" ROP insufficient to perform exfiltration, which increases the required complexity of the attack. Along with other protections like the kernel stack size limit and address space layout randomization which make finding gadgets is really hard, absence of any in-kernel primitive for accessing secret memory means the one gadget ROP attack can't work. Since the only way to access secret memory is to reconstruct the missing mapping entry, the attacker has to recover the physical page and insert a PTE pointing to it in the kernel and then retrieve the contents. That takes at least three gadgets which is a level of difficulty beyond most standard attacks. * Prevent cross-process secret userspace memory exposures. Once the secret memory is allocated, the user can't accidentally pass it into the kernel to be transmitted somewhere. The secreremem pages cannot be accessed via the direct map and they are disallowed in GUP. * Harden against exploited kernel flaws. In order to access secretmem, a kernel-side attack would need to either walk the page tables and create new ones, or spawn a new privileged uiserspace process to perform secrets exfiltration using ptrace. The file descriptor based memory has several advantages over the "traditional" mm interfaces, such as mlock(), mprotect(), madvise(). File descriptor approach allows explicit and controlled sharing of the memory areas, it allows to seal the operations. Besides, file descriptor based memory paves the way for VMMs to remove the secret memory range from the userspace hipervisor process, for instance QEMU. Andy Lutomirski says: "Getting fd-backed memory into a guest will take some possibly major work in the kernel, but getting vma-backed memory into a guest without mapping it in the host user address space seems much, much worse." memfd_secret() is made a dedicated system call rather than an extension to memfd_create() because it's purpose is to allow the user to create more secure memory mappings rather than to simply allow file based access to the memory. Nowadays a new system call cost is negligible while it is way simpler for userspace to deal with a clear-cut system calls than with a multiplexer or an overloaded syscall. Moreover, the initial implementation of memfd_secret() is completely distinct from memfd_create() so there is no much sense in overloading memfd_create() to begin with. If there will be a need for code sharing between these implementation it can be easily achieved without a need to adjust user visible APIs. The secret memory remains accessible in the process context using uaccess primitives, but it is not exposed to the kernel otherwise; secret memory areas are removed from the direct map and functions in the follow_page()/get_user_page() family will refuse to return a page that belongs to the secret memory area. Once there will be a use case that will require exposing secretmem to the kernel it will be an opt-in request in the system call flags so that user would have to decide what data can be exposed to the kernel. Removing of the pages from the direct map may cause its fragmentation on architectures that use large pages to map the physical memory which affects the system performance. However, the original Kconfig text for CONFIG_DIRECT_GBPAGES said that gigabyte pages in the direct map "... can improve the kernel's performance a tiny bit ..." (commit 00d1c5e05736 ("x86: add gbpages switches")) and the recent report [1] showed that "... although 1G mappings are a good default choice, there is no compelling evidence that it must be the only choice". Hence, it is sufficient to have secretmem disabled by default with the ability of a system administrator to enable it at boot time. Pages in the secretmem regions are unevictable and unmovable to avoid accidental exposure of the sensitive data via swap or during page migration. Since the secretmem mappings are locked in memory they cannot exceed RLIMIT_MEMLOCK. Since these mappings are already locked independently from mlock(), an attempt to mlock()/munlock() secretmem range would fail and mlockall()/munlockall() will ignore secretmem mappings. However, unlike mlock()ed memory, secretmem currently behaves more like long-term GUP: secretmem mappings are unmovable mappings directly consumed by user space. With default limits, there is no excessive use of secretmem and it poses no real problem in combination with ZONE_MOVABLE/CMA, but in the future this should be addressed to allow balanced use of large amounts of secretmem along with ZONE_MOVABLE/CMA. A page that was a part of the secret memory area is cleared when it is freed to ensure the data is not exposed to the next user of that page. The following example demonstrates creation of a secret mapping (error handling is omitted): fd = memfd_secret(0); ftruncate(fd, MAP_SIZE); ptr = mmap(NULL, MAP_SIZE, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, fd, 0); [1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/213b4567-46ce-f116-9cdf-bbd0c884eb3c@linux.intel.com/ [akpm@linux-foundation.org: suppress Kconfig whine] Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210518072034.31572-5-rppt@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Mike Rapoport <rppt@linux.ibm.com> Acked-by: Hagen Paul Pfeifer <hagen@jauu.net> Acked-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@HansenPartnership.com> Cc: Alexander Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org> Cc: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de> Cc: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Cc: Christopher Lameter <cl@linux.com> Cc: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com> Cc: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com> Cc: Elena Reshetova <elena.reshetova@intel.com> Cc: "H.
