With NUMA balancing, in hint page fault handler, the faulting page will be
migrated to the accessing node if necessary. During the migration, TLB
will be shot down on all CPUs that the process has run on recently.
Because in the hint page fault handler, the PTE will be made accessible
before the migration is tried. The overhead of TLB shooting down can be
high, so it's better to be avoided if possible. In fact, if we delay
mapping the page until migration, that can be avoided. This is what this
patch doing.
For the multiple threads applications, it's possible that a page is
accessed by multiple threads almost at the same time. In the original
implementation, because the first thread will install the accessible PTE
before migrating the page, the other threads may access the page directly
before the page is made inaccessible again during migration. While with
the patch, the second thread will go through the page fault handler too.
And because of the PageLRU() checking in the following code path,
migrate_misplaced_page()
numamigrate_isolate_page()
isolate_lru_page()
the migrate_misplaced_page() will return 0, and the PTE will be made
accessible in the second thread.
This will introduce a little more overhead. But we think the possibility
for a page to be accessed by the multiple threads at the same time is low,
and the overhead difference isn't too large. If this becomes a problem in
some workloads, we need to consider how to reduce the overhead.
To test the patch, we run a test case as follows on a 2-socket Intel
server (1 NUMA node per socket) with 128GB DRAM (64GB per socket).
1. Run a memory eater on NUMA node 1 to use 40GB memory before running
pmbench.
2. Run pmbench (normal accessing pattern) with 8 processes, and 8
threads per process, so there are 64 threads in total. The
working-set size of each process is 8960MB, so the total working-set
size is 8 * 8960MB = 70GB. The CPU of all pmbench processes is bound
to node 1. The pmbench processes will access some DRAM on node 0.
3. After the pmbench processes run for 10 seconds, kill the memory
eater. Now, some pages will be migrated from node 0 to node 1 via
NUMA balancing.
Test results show that, with the patch, the pmbench throughput (page
accesses/s) increases 5.5%. The number of the TLB shootdowns interrupts
reduces 98% (from ~4.7e7 to ~9.7e5) with about 9.2e6 pages (35.8GB)
migrated. From the perf profile, it can be found that the CPU cycles
spent by try_to_unmap() and its callees reduces from 6.02% to 0.47%. That
is, the CPU cycles spent by TLB shooting down decreases greatly.

Currently the kernel adds the page, allocated for swapin, to the
swapcache before charging the page. This is fine but now we want a
per-memcg swapcache stat which is essential for folks who wants to
transparently migrate from cgroup v1's memsw to cgroup v2's memory and
swap counters. In addition charging a page before exposing it to other
parts of the kernel is a step in the right direction.
To correctly maintain the per-memcg swapcache stat, this patch has
adopted to charge the page before adding it to swapcache. One challenge
in this option is the failure case of add_to_swap_cache() on which we
need to undo the mem_cgroup_charge(). Specifically undoing
mem_cgroup_uncharge_swap() is not simple.
To resolve the issue, this patch decouples the charging for swapin pages
from mem_cgroup_charge(). Two new functions are introduced,
mem_cgroup_swapin_charge_page() for just charging the swapin page and
mem_cgroup_swapin_uncharge_swap() for uncharging the swap slot once the
page has been successfully added to the swapcache.

There are code paths that rely on zero_pfn to be fully initialized
before core_initcall. For example, wq_sysfs_init() is a core_initcall
function that eventually results in a call to kernel_execve, which
causes a page fault with a subsequent mmput. If zero_pfn is not
initialized by then it may not get cleaned up properly and result in an
error:
BUG: Bad rss-counter state mm:(ptrval) type:MM_ANONPAGES val:1
Here is an analysis of the race as seen on a MIPS device. On this
particular MT7621 device (Ubiquiti ER-X), zero_pfn is PFN 0 until
initialized, at which point it becomes PFN 5120:
1. wq_sysfs_init calls into kobject_uevent_env at core_initcall:
kobject_uevent_env+0x7e4/0x7ec
kset_register+0x68/0x88
bus_register+0xdc/0x34c
subsys_virtual_register+0x34/0x78
wq_sysfs_init+0x1c/0x4c
do_one_initcall+0x50/0x1a8
kernel_init_freeable+0x230/0x2c8
kernel_init+0x10/0x100
ret_from_kernel_thread+0x14/0x1c
2. kobject_uevent_env() calls call_usermodehelper_exec() which executes
kernel_execve asynchronously.
3. Memory allocations in kernel_execve cause a page fault, bumping the
MM reference counter:
add_mm_counter_fast+0xb4/0xc0
handle_mm_fault+0x6e4/0xea0
__get_user_pages.part.78+0x190/0x37c
__get_user_pages_remote+0x128/0x360
get_arg_page+0x34/0xa0
copy_string_kernel+0x194/0x2a4
kernel_execve+0x11c/0x298
call_usermodehelper_exec_async+0x114/0x194
4. In case zero_pfn has not been initialized yet, zap_pte_range does
not decrement the MM_ANONPAGES RSS counter and the BUG message is
triggered shortly afterwards when __mmdrop checks the ref counters:
__mmdrop+0x98/0x1d0
free_bprm+0x44/0x118
kernel_execve+0x160/0x1d8
call_usermodehelper_exec_async+0x114/0x194
ret_from_kernel_thread+0x14/0x1c
To avoid races such as described above, initialize init_zero_pfn at
early_initcall level. Depending on the architecture, ZERO_PAGE is
either constant or gets initialized even earlier, at paging_init, so
there is no issue with initializing zero_pfn earlier.

Userfaultfd self-test fails occasionally, indicating a memory corruption.
Analyzing this problem indicates that there is a real bug since mmap_lock
is only taken for read in mwriteprotect_range() and defers flushes, and
since there is insufficient consideration of concurrent deferred TLB
flushes in wp_page_copy(). Although the PTE is flushed from the TLBs in
wp_page_copy(), this flush takes place after the copy has already been
performed, and therefore changes of the page are possible between the time
of the copy and the time in which the PTE is flushed.
To make matters worse, memory-unprotection using userfaultfd also poses a
problem. Although memory unprotection is logically a promotion of PTE
permissions, and therefore should not require a TLB flush, the current
userrfaultfd code might actually cause a demotion of the architectural PTE
permission: when userfaultfd_writeprotect() unprotects memory region, it
unintentionally *clears* the RW-bit if it was already set. Note that this
unprotecting a PTE that is not write-protected is a valid use-case: the
userfaultfd monitor might ask to unprotect a region that holds both
write-protected and write-unprotected PTEs.
The scenario that happens in selftests/vm/userfaultfd is as follows:
cpu0 cpu1 cpu2
---- ---- ----
[ Writable PTE
cached in TLB ]
userfaultfd_writeprotect()
[ write-*unprotect* ]
mwriteprotect_range()
mmap_read_lock()
change_protection()
change_protection_range()
...
change_pte_range()
[ *clear* “write”-bit ]
[ defer TLB flushes ]
[ page-fault ]
...
wp_page_copy()
cow_user_page()
[ copy page ]
[ write to old
page ]
...
set_pte_at_notify()
A similar scenario can happen:
cpu0 cpu1 cpu2 cpu3
---- ---- ---- ----
[ Writable PTE
cached in TLB ]
userfaultfd_writeprotect()
[ write-protect ]
[ deferred TLB flush ]
userfaultfd_writeprotect()
[ write-unprotect ]
[ deferred TLB flush]
[ page-fault ]
wp_page_copy()
cow_user_page()
[ copy page ]
... [ write to page ]
set_pte_at_notify()
This race exists since commit 292924b260 ("userfaultfd: wp: apply
_PAGE_UFFD_WP bit"). Yet, as Yu Zhao pointed, these races became apparent
since commit 09854ba94c ("mm: do_wp_page() simplification") which made
wp_page_copy() more likely to take place, specifically if page_count(page)
> 1.
To resolve the aforementioned races, check whether there are pending
flushes on uffd-write-protected VMAs, and if there are, perform a flush
before doing the COW.
Further optimizations will follow to avoid during uffd-write-unprotect
unnecassary PTE write-protection and TLB flushes.

page structs are not guaranteed to be contiguous for gigantic pages. The
routine copy_huge_page_from_user can encounter gigantic pages, yet it
assumes page structs are contiguous when copying pages from user space.
Since page structs for the target gigantic page are not contiguous, the
data copied from user space could overwrite other pages not associated
with the gigantic page and cause data corruption.
Non-contiguous page structs are generally not an issue. However, they can
exist with a specific kernel configuration and hotplug operations. For
example: Configure the kernel with CONFIG_SPARSEMEM and
!CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP. Then, hotplug add memory for the area where
the gigantic page will be allocated.

Currently, the follow_pfn function is exported for modules but
follow_pte is not. However, follow_pfn is very easy to misuse,
because it does not provide protections (so most of its callers
assume the page is writable!) and because it returns after having
already unlocked the page table lock.
Provide instead a simplified version of follow_pte that does
not have the pmdpp and range arguments. The older version
survives as follow_invalidate_pte() for use by fs/dax.c.

Rather than modifying the 'address' field of the 'struct vm_fault'
passed to do_set_pte(), leave that to identify the real faulting address
and pass in the virtual address to be mapped by the new pte as a
separate argument.
This makes FAULT_FLAG_PREFAULT redundant, as a prefault entry can be
identified simply by comparing the new address parameter with the
faulting address, so remove the redundant flag at the same time.

Commit 5c0a85fad9 ("mm: make faultaround produce old ptes") changed
the "faultaround" behaviour to initialise prefaulted PTEs as 'old',
since this avoids vmscan wrongly assuming that they are hot, despite
having never been explicitly accessed by userspace. The change has been
shown to benefit numerous arm64 micro-architectures (with hardware
access flag) running Android, where both application launch latency and
direct reclaim time are significantly reduced (by 10%+ and ~80%
respectively).
Unfortunately, commit 315d09bf30 ("Revert "mm: make faultaround
produce old ptes"") reverted the change due to it being identified as
the cause of a ~6% regression in unixbench on x86. Experiments on a
variety of recent arm64 micro-architectures indicate that unixbench is
not affected by the original commit, which appears to yield a 0-1%
performance improvement.
Since one size does not fit all for the initial state of prefaulted
PTEs, introduce arch_wants_old_prefaulted_pte(), which allows an
architecture to opt-in to 'old' prefaulted PTEs at runtime based on
whatever criteria it may have.

alloc_set_pte() has two users with different requirements: in the
faultaround code, it called from an atomic context and PTE page table
has to be preallocated. finish_fault() can sleep and allocate page table
as needed.
PTL locking rules are also strange, hard to follow and overkill for
finish_fault().
Let's untangle the mess. alloc_set_pte() has gone now. All locking is
explicit.
The price is some code duplication to handle huge pages in faultaround
path, but it should be fine, having overall improvement in readability.

I'm not sure if I'm completely missing something here, but AFAIKS the
reference to the mysterious "COW SMC race" confuses the issue. The
original changelog and mailing list thread didn't help me either.
This SMC race is where the problem was detected, but isn't the general
problem bigger and more obvious: that the new PTE could be picked up at
any time by any TLB while entries for the old PTE exist in other TLBs
before the TLB flush takes effect?
The case where the iTLB and dTLB of a CPU are pointing at different pages
is an interesting one but follows from the general problem.
The other (minor) thing with the comment I think it makes it a bit clearer
to say what the old code was doing (i.e., it avoids the race as opposed to
what?).

Despite a comment that said that page fault accounting would be charged to
whatever task_struct* was passed into __access_remote_vm(), the tsk
argument was actually unused.
Making page fault accounting actually use this task struct is quite a
project, so there is no point in keeping the tsk argument.
Delete both the comment, and the argument.

Since commit 70e806e4e6 ("mm: Do early cow for pinned pages during
fork() for ptes") pages under a FOLL_PIN will not be write protected
during COW for fork. This means that pages returned from
pin_user_pages(FOLL_WRITE) should not become write protected while the pin
is active.
However, there is a small race where get_user_pages_fast(FOLL_PIN) can
establish a FOLL_PIN at the same time copy_present_page() is write
protecting it:
CPU 0 CPU 1
get_user_pages_fast()
internal_get_user_pages_fast()
copy_page_range()
pte_alloc_map_lock()
copy_present_page()
atomic_read(has_pinned) == 0
page_maybe_dma_pinned() == false
atomic_set(has_pinned, 1);
gup_pgd_range()
gup_pte_range()
pte_t pte = gup_get_pte(ptep)
pte_access_permitted(pte)
try_grab_compound_head()
pte = pte_wrprotect(pte)
set_pte_at();
pte_unmap_unlock()
// GUP now returns with a write protected page
The first attempt to resolve this by using the write protect caused
problems (and was missing a barrrier), see commit f3c64eda3e ("mm: avoid
early COW write protect games during fork()")
Instead wrap copy_p4d_range() with the write side of a seqcount and check
the read side around gup_pgd_range(). If there is a collision then
get_user_pages_fast() fails and falls back to slow GUP.
Slow GUP is safe against this race because copy_page_range() is only
called while holding the exclusive side of the mmap_lock on the src
mm_struct.

Create a vendor hook inside of gfp_zone() to modify which allocations
get to enter ZONE_MOVABLE, by zeroing out __GFP_HIGHMEM inside of the
trace hook based on certain conditions.
Separately, create separate trace hooks in the swap-in and readahead
paths to affect the behavior of the tracehook in gfp_zone().
