Architectures that want pre-HVO of hugetlb vmemmap pages will need to call
hugetlb_bootmem_alloc from an earlier spot in boot (before sparse_init).
To facilitate some architectures doing this, protect hugetlb_bootmem_alloc
against multiple calls.
Also provide a helper function to check if it's been called, so that the
early HVO code, to be added later, can see if there is anything to do.

Bootmem hugetlb pages are allocated using memblock, which isn't (and
mostly can't be) aware of zones.
So, they may end up crossing zone boundaries. This would create
confusion, a hugetlb page that is part of multiple zones is bad. Worse,
HVO might then end up stealthily re-assigning pages to a different zone
when a hugetlb page is freed, since the tail page structures beyond the
first vmemmap page would inherit the zone of the first page structures.
While the chance of this happening is low, you can definitely create a
configuration where this happens (especially using ZONE_MOVABLE).
To avoid this issue, check if bootmem hugetlb pages intersect with
multiple zones during the gather phase, and discard them, handing them to
the page allocator, if they do. Record the number of invalid bootmem
pages per node and subtract them from the number of available pages at the
end, making it easier to do these checks in multiple places later on.

The pageblocks that back memblock allocated hugetlb folios might not have
the migrate type set, in the CONFIG_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT case.
memblock allocated hugetlb folios might be given to the buddy allocator
eventually (if nr_hugepages is lowered), so make sure that the migrate
type for the pageblocks contained in them is set when initializing them.
Set it to the default that memmap init also uses (MIGRATE_MOVABLE).

Convert the cmdline parameters (hugepagesz, hugepages, default_hugepagesz
and hugetlb_free_vmemmap) to early parameters.
Since parse_early_param might run before MMU setups on some platforms
(powerpc), validation of huge page sizes as specified in command line
parameters would fail. So instead, for the hstate-related values, just
record the them and parse them on demand, from hugetlb_bootmem_alloc.
The allocation of hugetlb bootmem pages is now done in
hugetlb_bootmem_alloc, which is called explicitly at the start of
mm_core_init(). core_initcall would be too late, as that happens with
memblock already torn down.
This change will allow earlier allocation and initialization of bootmem
hugetlb pages later on.
No functional change intended.

Later commits will move hugetlb bootmem allocation to earlier in init,
when N_MEMORY has not yet been set on nodes. Use online nodes instead.
At most, this wastes just a few cycles once during boot (and most likely

In dissolve_free_huge_page(), free huge pages are dissolved without
adjusting surplus count. However, free huge pages may be accounted as
surplus pages, and will lead to wrong surplus count.
I reproduce this issue on qemu. The steps are:
1) Node1 is memory-less at first. Hot-add memory to node1 by executing
the two commands in qemu monitor:
object_add memory-backend-ram,id=mem1,size=1G
device_add pc-dimm,id=dimm1,memdev=mem1,node=1
2) online one memory block of Node1 with：
echo online_movable > /sys/devices/system/node/node1/memoryX/state
3) create 64 huge pages for node1
4) run a program to reserve (don't consume) all the huge pages
5) echo 0 > nr_huge_pages for node1. After this step, free huge pages in
Node1 are surplus.
6) create 80 huge pages for node0
7) offline memory of node1, The memory range to offline contains the free
surplus huge pages created in step3) ~ step5)
echo offline > /sys/devices/system/node/node1/memoryX/state
8) kill the program in step 4)
The result:
Node0 Node1
total 80 0
free 80 0
surplus 0 61
To fix it, adjust surplus when destroying huge pages if the node has
surplus pages in dissolve_free_hugetlb_folio().
The result with this patch:
Node0 Node1
total 80 0
free 80 0
surplus 0 0

Since the introduction of commit c77c0a8ac4 ("mm/hugetlb: defer freeing
of huge pages if in non-task context"), which supports deferring the
freeing of hugetlb pages, the allocation of contiguous memory through
cma_alloc() may fail probabilistically.
In the CMA allocation process, if it is found that the CMA area is
occupied by in-use hugetlb folios, these in-use hugetlb folios need to be
migrated to another location. When there are no available hugetlb folios
in the free hugetlb pool during the migration of in-use hugetlb folios,
new folios are allocated from the buddy system. A temporary state is set
on the newly allocated folio. Upon completion of the hugetlb folio
migration, the temporary state is transferred from the new folios to the
old folios. Normally, when the old folios with the temporary state are
freed, it is directly released back to the buddy system. However, due to
the deferred freeing of hugetlb pages, the PageBuddy() check fails,
ultimately leading to the failure of cma_alloc().
Here is a simplified call trace illustrating the process:
cma_alloc()
->__alloc_contig_migrate_range() // Migrate in-use hugetlb folios
->unmap_and_move_huge_page()
->folio_putback_hugetlb() // Free old folios
->test_pages_isolated()
->__test_page_isolated_in_pageblock()
->PageBuddy(page) // Check if the page is in buddy
To resolve this issue, we have implemented a function named
wait_for_freed_hugetlb_folios(). This function ensures that the hugetlb
folios are properly released back to the buddy system after their
migration is completed. By invoking wait_for_freed_hugetlb_folios()
before calling PageBuddy(), we ensure that PageBuddy() will succeed.

Pull arm64 fixes from Will Deacon:
"Ryan's been hard at work finding and fixing mm bugs in the arm64 code,
so here's a small crop of fixes for -rc5.
The main changes are to fix our zapping of non-present PTEs for
hugetlb entries created using the contiguous bit in the page-table
rather than a block entry at the level above. Prior to these fixes, we
were pulling the contiguous bit back out of the PTE in order to
determine the size of the hugetlb page but this is clearly bogus if
the thing isn't present and consequently both the clearing of the
PTE(s) and the TLB invalidation were unreliable.
Although the problem was found by code inspection, we really don't
want this sitting around waiting to trigger and the changes are CC'd
to stable accordingly.
Note that the diffstat looks a lot worse than it really is;
huge_ptep_get_and_clear() now takes a size argument from the core code
and so all the arch implementations of that have been updated in a
pretty mechanical fashion.

When using the HugeTLB kernel command-line to allocate 1G pages from a
specific node, such as:
default_hugepagesz=1G hugepages=1:1
If node 1 happens to not have enough memory for the requested number of 1G
pages, the allocation falls back to other nodes. A quick way to reproduce
this is by creating a KVM guest with a memory-less node and trying to
allocate 1 1G page from it. Instead of failing, the allocation will
fallback to other nodes.
This defeats the purpose of node specific allocation. Also, specific node
allocation for 2M pages don't have this behavior: the allocation will just
fail for the pages it can't satisfy.
This issue happens because HugeTLB calls memblock_alloc_try_nid_raw() for
1G boot-time allocation as this function falls back to other nodes if the
allocation can't be satisfied. Use memblock_alloc_exact_nid_raw()
instead, which ensures that the allocation will only be satisfied from the
specified node.

gather_bootmem_prealloc() assumes the start nid as 0 and size as
num_node_state(N_MEMORY). That means in case if memory attached numa
nodes are interleaved, then gather_bootmem_prealloc_parallel() will fail
to scan few of these nodes.
Since memory attached numa nodes can be interleaved in any fashion, hence
ensure that the current code checks for all numa node ids
(.size = nr_node_ids). Let's still keep max_threads as N_MEMORY, so that
it can distributes all nr_node_ids among the these many no. threads.

Add the const qualifier to all the ctl_tables in the tree except for
watchdog_hardlockup_sysctl, memory_allocation_profiling_sysctls,
loadpin_sysctl_table and the ones calling register_net_sysctl (./net,
drivers/inifiniband dirs). These are special cases as they use a
registration function with a non-const qualified ctl_table argument or
modify the arrays before passing them on to the registration function.
Constifying ctl_table structs will prevent the modification of
proc_handler function pointers as the arrays would reside in .rodata.
This is made possible after commit 78eb4ea25c ("sysctl: treewide:
constify the ctl_table argument of proc_handlers") constified all the
proc_handlers.

We replaced a simple put_page() by a putback_active_hugepage() call in
commit 3aaa76e125 ("mm: migrate: hugetlb: putback destination hugepage
to active list"), to set the "active" flag on the dst hugetlb folio.
Nowadays, we decoupled the "active" list from the flag, by calling the
flag "migratable".
Calling "putback" on something that wasn't allocated is weird and not
future proof, especially if we might reach that path when migration failed
and we just want to free the freshly allocated hugetlb folio.
Let's simply handle the migratable flag and the active list flag in
move_hugetlb_state(), where we know that allocation succeeded and already
handle the temporary flag; use a simple folio_put() to return our
reference.

After the previous cleanup, vma_has_reserves() is mostly an empty helper
except that it says "use reserve count" is inverted meaning from "needs a
global reserve count", which is still true.
To avoid confusions on having two inverted ways to ask the same question,
always use the gbl_chg everywhere, and drop the function.
When at it, rename "chg" to "gbl_chg" in dequeue_hugetlb_folio_vma(). It
might be helpful for readers to see that the "chg" here is the global
reserve count, not the vma resv count.

vma_has_reserves() is a helper "trying" to know whether the vma should
consume one reservation when allocating the hugetlb folio.
However it's not clear on why we need such complexity, as such information
is already represented in the "chg" variable.
From alloc_hugetlb_folio() context, "chg" (or in the function's context,
"gbl_chg") is defined as:
- If gbl_chg=1, the allocation cannot reuse an existing reservation
- If gbl_chg=0, the allocation should reuse an existing reservation
Firstly, map_chg is defined as following, to cover all cases of hugetlb
reservation scenarios (mostly, via vma_needs_reservation(), but
cow_from_owner is an outlier):
CONDITION HAS RESERVATION?
========= ================
- SHARED: always check against per-inode resv_map
(ignore NONRESERVE)
- If resv exists ==> YES [1]
- If not ==> NO [2]
- PRIVATE: complicated...
- Request came from a CoW from owner resv map ==> NO [3]
(when cow_from_owner==true)
- If does not own a resv_map at all.. ==> NO [4]
(examples: VM_NORESERVE, private fork())
- If owns a resv_map, but resv donsn't exists ==> NO [5]
- If owns a resv_map, and resv exists ==> YES [6]
Further on, gbl_chg considered spool setup, so that is a decision based on
all the context.
If we look at vma_has_reserves(), it almost does check that has already
been processed by map_chg accounting (I marked each return value to the
case above):
static bool vma_has_reserves(struct vm_area_struct *vma, long chg)
{
if (vma->vm_flags & VM_NORESERVE) {
if (vma->vm_flags & VM_MAYSHARE && chg == 0)
return true; ==> [1]
else
return false; ==> [2] or [4]
}
if (vma->vm_flags & VM_MAYSHARE) {
if (chg)
return false; ==> [2]
else
return true; ==> [1]
}
if (is_vma_resv_set(vma, HPAGE_RESV_OWNER)) {
if (chg)
return false; ==> [5]
else
return true; ==> [6]
}
return false; ==> [4]
}
It didn't check [3], but [3] case was actually already covered now by the
"chg" / "gbl_chg" / "map_chg" calculations.
In short, vma_has_reserves() doesn't provide anything more than return
"!chg".. so just simplify all the things.
There're a lot of comments describing truncation races, IIUC there should
have no race as long as map_chg is properly done.

alloc_hugetlb_folio() isn't a function easy to read, especially on
reservation accountings for either VMA or globally (majorly, spool only).
The 1st complexity lies in the special private CoW path, aka,
cow_from_owner=true case.
The 2nd complexity may be the confusing updates of gbl_chg after it's set
once, which looks like they can change anytime on the fly.
Logically, cow_from_user is only about vma reservation. We could already
decouple the flag and consolidate it into map charge flag very early.
Then we don't need to keep checking the CoW special flag every time.
This patch does it by making map_chg a tri-state flag. Tri-state needed
is unfortunate, and it's because currently vma_needs_reservation() has a
side effect internally, that it must be followed by either a end() or
commit().
We keep the same semantic as before on one thing: "if (map_chg)" means we
need a separate per-vma resv count. It keeps most of the old code like
before untouched with the new enum.
After this patch, we take these steps to decide these variables, hopefully
slightly easier to follow:
- First, decide map_chg. This will take cow_from_owner into account,
once and for all. It's about whether we could take a resv count from
the vma, no matter it's shared, private, etc.
- Then, decide gbl_chg. The only diff here is spool, comparing to
map_chg.
Now only update each flag once and for all, instead of keep any of them
flipping which can be very hard to follow.
With cow_from_owner merged into map_chg, we could remove quite a few such
checks all over. Side benefit of such is that we can get rid of one more
confusing flag, which is deferred_reserve.
Cleanup the comments a bit too. E.g., MAP_NORESERVE may not need to check
against spool limit, AFAIU, if it's on a shared mapping, and if the page
cache folio has its inode's resv map available (in which case map_chg
would have been set zero, hence the code should be correct, not the
comment).
There's one trivial detail that needs attention that this patch touched,
which is this check right after vma_commit_reservation():
if (map_chg > map_commit)
It changes to:
if (unlikely(map_chg == MAP_CHG_NEEDED && retval == 0))
It should behave the same like before, because previously the only way to
make "map_chg > map_commit" happen is map_chg=1 && map_commit=0. That's
exactly the rewritten line. Meanwhile, either commit() or end() will need
to be skipped if ENFORCE, to keep the old behavior.
Even though it looks a lot changed, but no functional change expected.

The old name "avoid_reserve" can be too generic and can be used wrongly in
the new call sites that want to allocate a hugetlb folio.
It's confusing on two things: (1) whether one can opt-in to avoid global
reservation, and (2) whether it should take more than one count.
In reality, this flag is only used in an extremely hacky path, in an
extremely hacky way in hugetlb CoW path only, and always use with 1 saying
"skip global reservation". Rename the flag to avoid future abuse of this
flag, making it a boolean so as to reflect its true representation that
it's not a counter. To make it even harder to abuse, add a comment above
the function to explain it.

When fork() and stumble on top of a dma-pinned hugetlb private page, CoW
must happen during fork() to guarantee dma coherency.
In this specific path, hugetlb pages need to be allocated for the child
process. Stop using avoid_reserve=1 flag here: it's not required to be
used here, as dest_vma (which is destined to be a MAP_PRIVATE hugetlb vma)
will have no private vma resv map, and that will make sure it won't be
able to use a vma reservation later.
No functional change intended with this change. Said that, it's still
wanted to do this, so as to reduce the usage of avoid_reserve to the only
one user, which is also why this flag was introduced initially in commit
04f2cbe356 ("hugetlb: guarantee that COW faults for a process that
called mmap(MAP_PRIVATE) on hugetlbfs will succeed"). I don't see whoever
else should set it at all.
Further patch will clean up resv accounting based on this.

Patch series "mm/hugetlb: Refactor hugetlb allocation resv accounting",
v2.
This is a follow up on Ackerley's series here as replacement:
https://lore.kernel.org/r/cover.1728684491.git.ackerleytng@google.com
The goal of this series is to cleanup hugetlb resv accounting, especially
during folio allocation, to decouple a few things:
- Hugetlb folios v.s. Hugetlbfs: IOW, the hope is in the future hugetlb
folios can be allocated completely without hugetlbfs.
- Decouple VMA v.s. hugetlb folio allocations: allocating a hugetlb folio
should not always require a hugetlbfs VMA. For example, either it got
allocated from the inode level (see hugetlbfs_fallocate() where it used
a pesudo VMA for allocation), or it can be allocated by other kernel
subsystems.
It paves way for other users to allocate hugetlb folios out of either
system reservations, or subpools (instead of hugetlbfs, as a file system).
For longer term, this prepares hugetlb as a separate concept versus
hugetlbfs, so that hugetlb folios can be allocated by not only hugetlbfs
and other things.
Tests I've done:
- I had a reproducer in patch 1 for the bug I found, this will start to
work after patch 1 or the whole set applied.
- Hugetlb regression tests (on x86_64 2MBs), includes:
- All vmtests on hugetlbfs
- libhugetlbfs test suite (which may fail some tests, but no new failures
will be introduced by this series, so all such failures happen before
this series so shouldn't be relevant).
This patch (of 7):
Since commit 04f2cbe356 ("hugetlb: guarantee that COW faults for a
process that called mmap(MAP_PRIVATE) on hugetlbfs will succeed"),
avoid_reserve was introduced for a special case of CoW on hugetlb private
mappings, and only if the owner VMA is trying to allocate yet another
hugetlb folio that is not reserved within the private vma reserved map.
Later on, in commit d85f69b0b5 ("mm/hugetlb: alloc_huge_page handle
areas hole punched by fallocate"), alloc_huge_page() enforced to not
consume any global reservation as long as avoid_reserve=true. This
operation doesn't look correct, because even if it will enforce the
allocation to not use global reservation at all, it will still try to take
one reservation from the spool (if the subpool existed). Then since the
spool reserved pages take from global reservation, it'll also take one
reservation globally.
Logically it can cause global reservation to go wrong.
I wrote a reproducer below, trigger this special path, and every run of
such program will cause global reservation count to increment by one, until
it hits the number of free pages:
#define _GNU_SOURCE /* See feature_test_macros(7) */
#include <stdio.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <sys/mman.h>
#define MSIZE (2UL << 20)
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
const char *path;
int *buf;
int fd, ret;
pid_t child;
if (argc < 2) {
printf("usage: %s <hugetlb_file>\n", argv[0]);
return -1;
}
path = argv[1];
fd = open(path, O_RDWR | O_CREAT, 0666);
if (fd < 0) {
perror("open failed");
return -1;
}
ret = fallocate(fd, 0, 0, MSIZE);
if (ret != 0) {
perror("fallocate");
return -1;
}
buf = mmap(NULL, MSIZE, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE,
MAP_PRIVATE, fd, 0);
if (buf == MAP_FAILED) {
perror("mmap() failed");
return -1;
}
/* Allocate a page */
*buf = 1;
child = fork();
if (child == 0) {
/* child doesn't need to do anything */
exit(0);
}
/* Trigger CoW from owner */
*buf = 2;
munmap(buf, MSIZE);
close(fd);
unlink(path);
return 0;
}
It can only reproduce with a sub-mount when there're reserved pages on the
spool, like:
# sysctl vm.nr_hugepages=128
# mkdir ./hugetlb-pool
# mount -t hugetlbfs -o min_size=8M,pagesize=2M none ./hugetlb-pool
Then run the reproducer on the mountpoint:
# ./reproducer ./hugetlb-pool/test
Fix it by taking the reservation from spool if available. In general,
avoid_reserve is IMHO more about "avoid vma resv map", not spool's.
I copied stable, however I have no intention for backporting if it's not a
clean cherry-pick, because private hugetlb mapping, and then fork() on top
is too rare to hit.

My machine has 4 NUMA nodes, each equipped with 32GB of memory. I have
configured each NUMA node with 16GB of CMA and 16GB of in-use hugetlb
pages. The allocation of contiguous memory via cma_alloc() can fail
probabilistically.
When there are free hugetlb folios in the hugetlb pool, during the
migration of in-use hugetlb folios, new folios are allocated from the free
hugetlb pool. After the migration is completed, the old folios are
released back to the free hugetlb pool instead of being returned to the
buddy system. This can cause test_pages_isolated() check to fail,
ultimately leading to the failure of cma_alloc().
Call trace:
cma_alloc()
__alloc_contig_migrate_range() // migrate in-use hugepage
test_pages_isolated()
__test_page_isolated_in_pageblock()
PageBuddy(page) // check if the page is in buddy
To address this issue, we introduce a function named
replace_free_hugepage_folios(). This function will replace the hugepage
in the free hugepage pool with a new one and release the old one to the
buddy system. After the migration of in-use hugetlb pages is completed,
we will invoke replace_free_hugepage_folios() to ensure that these
hugepages are properly released to the buddy system. Following this step,
when test_pages_isolated() is executed for inspection, it will
successfully pass.
Additionally, when alloc_contig_range() is used to migrate multiple in-use
hugetlb pages, it can result in some in-use hugetlb pages being released
back to the free hugetlb pool and subsequently being reallocated and used
again. For example:
[huge 0] [huge 1]
To migrate huge 0, we obtain huge x from the pool. After the migration is
completed, we return the now-freed huge 0 back to the pool. When it's
time to migrate huge 1, we can simply reuse the now-freed huge 0 from the
pool. As a result, when replace_free_hugepage_folios() is executed, it
cannot release huge 0 back to the buddy system. To address this issue, we
should prevent the reuse of isolated free hugepages during the migration
process.

Eric reported that PTRACE_POKETEXT fails when applications use hugetlb for
mapping text using huge pages. Before commit 1d8d14641f ("mm/hugetlb:
support write-faults in shared mappings"), PTRACE_POKETEXT worked by
accident, but it was buggy and silently ended up mapping pages writable
into the page tables even though VM_WRITE was not set.
In general, FOLL_FORCE|FOLL_WRITE does currently not work with hugetlb.
Let's implement FOLL_FORCE|FOLL_WRITE properly for hugetlb, such that what
used to work in the past by accident now properly works, allowing
applications using hugetlb for text etc. to get properly debugged.
This change might also be required to implement uprobes support for
hugetlb [1].

If we have to trigger a hugetlb folio copy during fork() because the anon
folio might be pinned, we currently unconditionally create a writable PTE.
However, the VMA might not have write permissions (VM_WRITE) at that
point.
Fix it by checking the VMA for VM_WRITE. Make the code less error prone
by moving checking for VM_WRITE into make_huge_pte(), and letting callers
only specify whether we should try making it writable.
A simple reproducer that longterm-pins the folios using liburing to then
mprotect(PROT_READ) the folios befor fork() [1] results in:
Before:
[FAIL] access should not have worked
After:
[PASS] access did not work as expected
[1] https://gitlab.com/davidhildenbrand/scratchspace/-/raw/main/reproducers/hugetlb-mkwrite-fork.c
This is rather a corner case, so stable might not be warranted.

Previously, surplus allocations triggered by mmap were typically made from
the node where the process was running. On a page fault, the area was
reliably dequeued from the hugepage_freelists for that node. However,
since commit 003af997c8 ("hugetlb: force allocating surplus hugepages on
mempolicy allowed nodes"), dequeue_hugetlb_folio_vma() may fall back to
other nodes unnecessarily even if there is no MPOL_BIND policy, causing
folios to be dequeued from nodes other than the current one.
Also, allocating from the node where the current process is running is
likely to result in a performance win, as mmap-ing processes often touch
the area not so long after allocation. This change minimizes surprises
for users relying on the previous behavior while maintaining the benefit
introduced by the commit.
So, prioritize the node the current process is running on when possible.

When mremap()ing a memory region previously registered with userfaultfd as
write-protected but without UFFD_FEATURE_EVENT_REMAP, an inconsistency in
flag clearing leads to a mismatch between the vma flags (which have
uffd-wp cleared) and the pte/pmd flags (which do not have uffd-wp
cleared). This mismatch causes a subsequent mprotect(PROT_WRITE) to
trigger a warning in page_table_check_pte_flags() due to setting the pte
to writable while uffd-wp is still set.
Fix this by always explicitly clearing the uffd-wp pte/pmd flags on any
such mremap() so that the values are consistent with the existing clearing
of VM_UFFD_WP. Be careful to clear the logical flag regardless of its
physical form; a PTE bit, a swap PTE bit, or a PTE marker. Cover PTE,
huge PMD and hugetlb paths.

The folio refcount may be increased unexpectly through try_get_folio() by

to check whether a pmd page table is shared. The check is incorrect if
the refcount is increased by the above caller, and this can cause the page

The issue may be triggered by damon, offline_page, page_idle, etc, which
will increase the refcount of page table.
1. The page table itself will be discarded after reporting the
"nonzero mapcount".
2. The HugeTLB page mapped by the page table miss freeing since we
treat the page table as shared and a shared page table will not be
unmapped.
Fix it by introducing independent PMD page table shared count. As
described by comment, pt_index/pt_mm/pt_frag_refcount are used for s390
gmap, x86 pgds and powerpc, pt_share_count is used for x86/arm64/riscv
pmds, so we can reuse the field as pt_share_count.

In current kernel, hugetlb_wp() calls copy_user_large_folio() with the
fault address. Where the fault address may be not aligned with the huge
page size. Then, copy_user_large_folio() may call
copy_user_gigantic_page() with the address, while
copy_user_gigantic_page() requires the address to be huge page size
aligned. So, this may cause memory corruption or information leak,
addtional, use more obvious naming 'addr_hint' instead of 'addr' for
copy_user_gigantic_page().

This patch introduces a new counter to memory.stat that tracks hugeTLB
usage, only if hugeTLB accounting is done to memory.current. This feature
is enabled the same way hugeTLB accounting is enabled, via the
memory_hugetlb_accounting mount flag for cgroupsv2.
1. Why is this patch necessary?
Currently, memcg hugeTLB accounting is an opt-in feature [1] that adds
hugeTLB usage to memory.current. However, the metric is not reported in
memory.stat. Given that users often interpret memory.stat as a breakdown
of the value reported in memory.current, the disparity between the two
reports can be confusing. This patch solves this problem by including the
metric in memory.stat as well, but only if it is also reported in
memory.current (it would also be confusing if the value was reported in
memory.stat, but not in memory.current)
Aside from the consistency between the two files, we also see benefits in
observability. Userspace might be interested in the hugeTLB footprint of
cgroups for many reasons. For instance, system admins might want to
verify that hugeTLB usage is distributed as expected across tasks: i.e.
memory-intensive tasks are using more hugeTLB pages than tasks that don't
consume a lot of memory, or are seen to fault frequently. Note that this
is separate from wanting to inspect the distribution for limiting purposes
(in which case, hugeTLB controller makes more sense).
2. We already have a hugeTLB controller. Why not use that?
It is true that hugeTLB tracks the exact value that we want. In fact, by
enabling the hugeTLB controller, we get all of the observability benefits
that I mentioned above, and users can check the total hugeTLB usage,
verify if it is distributed as expected, etc.
With this said, there are 2 problems:
(a) They are still not reported in memory.stat, which means the
disparity between the memcg reports are still there.
(b) We cannot reasonably expect users to enable the hugeTLB controller
just for the sake of hugeTLB usage reporting, especially since
they don't have any use for hugeTLB usage enforcing [2].
3. Implementation Details:
In the alloc / free hugetlb functions, we call lruvec_stat_mod_folio
regardless of whether memcg accounts hugetlb. mem_cgroup_commit_charge
which is called from alloc_hugetlb_folio will set memcg for the folio only
if the CGRP_ROOT_MEMORY_HUGETLB_ACCOUNTING cgroup mount option is used, so
lruvec_stat_mod_folio accounts per-memcg hugetlb counters only if the
feature is enabled. Regardless of whether memcg accounts for hugetlb, the
newly added global counter is updated and shown in /proc/vmstat.
The global counter is added because vmstats is the preferred framework for
cgroup stats. It makes stat items consistent between global and cgroups.
It also provides a per-node breakdown, which is useful. Because it does
not use cgroup-specific hooks, we also keep generic MM code separate from
memcg code.
[1] https://lore.kernel.org/all/20231006184629.155543-1-nphamcs@gmail.com/
[2] Of course, we can't make a new patch for every feature that can be
duplicated. However, since the existing solution of enabling the
hugeTLB controller is an imperfect solution that still leaves a
discrepancy between memory.stat and memory.curent, I think that it
is reasonable to isolate the feature in this case.

Add a new PTE marker that results in any access causing the accessing
process to segfault.
This is preferable to PTE_MARKER_POISONED, which results in the same
handling as hardware poisoned memory, and is thus undesirable for cases
where we simply wish to 'soft' poison a range.
This is in preparation for implementing the ability to specify guard pages
at the page table level, i.e. ranges that, when accessed, should cause
process termination.
Additionally, rename zap_drop_file_uffd_wp() to zap_drop_markers() - the
function checks the ZAP_FLAG_DROP_MARKER flag so naming it for this single
purpose was simply incorrect.
We then reuse the same logic to determine whether a zap should clear a
guard entry - this should only be performed on teardown and never on
MADV_DONTNEED or MADV_FREE.
We additionally add a WARN_ON_ONCE() in hugetlb logic should a guard
marker be encountered there, as we explicitly do not support this
operation and this should not occur.

memfd_pin_folios followed by unpin_folios leaves resv_huge_pages elevated
if the pages were not already faulted in. During a normal page fault,
resv_huge_pages is consumed here:
hugetlb_fault()
alloc_hugetlb_folio()
dequeue_hugetlb_folio_vma()
dequeue_hugetlb_folio_nodemask()
dequeue_hugetlb_folio_node_exact()
free_huge_pages--
resv_huge_pages--
During memfd_pin_folios, the page is created by calling
alloc_hugetlb_folio_nodemask instead of alloc_hugetlb_folio, and
resv_huge_pages is not modified:
memfd_alloc_folio()
alloc_hugetlb_folio_nodemask()
dequeue_hugetlb_folio_nodemask()
dequeue_hugetlb_folio_node_exact()
free_huge_pages--
alloc_hugetlb_folio_nodemask has other callers that must not modify
resv_huge_pages. Therefore, to fix, define an alternate version of
alloc_hugetlb_folio_nodemask for this call site that adjusts
resv_huge_pages.

Syzbot reports a UAF in hugetlb_fault(). This happens because
vmf_anon_prepare() could drop the per-VMA lock and allow the current VMA
to be freed before hugetlb_vma_unlock_read() is called.
We can fix this by using a modified version of vmf_anon_prepare() that
doesn't release the VMA lock on failure, and then release it ourselves
after hugetlb_vma_unlock_read().

The current assumption is that a large folio can only be split into
order-0 folios. That is not the case for hugeTLB demotion, nor for THP
split: see commit c010d47f10 ("mm: thp: split huge page to any lower
order pages").
When a large folio is split into ones of a lower non-zero order, only the
new head pages should be tagged. Tagging tail pages can cause imbalanced
"calls" counters, since only head pages are untagged by pgalloc_tag_sub()
and the "calls" counts on tail pages are leaked, e.g.,
# echo 2048kB >/sys/kernel/mm/hugepages/hugepages-1048576kB/demote_size
# echo 700 >/sys/kernel/mm/hugepages/hugepages-1048576kB/nr_hugepages
# time echo 700 >/sys/kernel/mm/hugepages/hugepages-1048576kB/demote
# echo 0 >/sys/kernel/mm/hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages
# grep alloc_gigantic_folio /proc/allocinfo

Not tagging tail pages also improves the splitting time, e.g., by about
15% when demoting 1GB hugeTLB folios to 2MB ones, as shown above.

The mutex array pointer shares a cacheline with the spinlock:
ffffffff84187480 B hugetlb_fault_mutex_table
ffffffff84187488 B hugetlb_lock
This is because the former is annotated with a macro forcing cacheline
alignment. I suspect it was meant to be the variant which on top of it
makes sure the object does not share the cacheline with anyone.
Since array pointer itself is de facto read-only such an annotation does
not make sense there anyway. Instead mark it __ro_after_init along with
the size var.
Do however move the spinlock out of the way.

Batch the HVO work, including de-HVO of the source and HVO of the
destination hugeTLB folios, to speed up demotion.
After commit bd225530a4 ("mm/hugetlb_vmemmap: fix race with speculative
PFN walkers"), each request of HVO or de-HVO, batched or not, invokes
synchronize_rcu() once. For example, when not batched, demoting one 1GB
hugeTLB folio to 512 2MB hugeTLB folios invokes synchronize_rcu() 513
times (1 de-HVO plus 512 HVO requests), whereas when batched, only twice
(1 de-HVO plus 1 HVO request). And the performance difference between the
two cases is significant, e.g.,
echo 2048kB >/sys/kernel/mm/hugepages/hugepages-1048576kB/demote_size
time echo 100 >/sys/kernel/mm/hugepages/hugepages-1048576kB/demote

sys 0m5.900s
After this patch:
real 0m0.900s
user 0m0.000s
sys 0m0.851s
Note that this patch changes the behavior of the `demote` interface when
de-HVO fails. Before, the interface aborts immediately upon failure; now,
it tries to finish an entire batch, meaning it can make extra progress if
the rest of the batch contains folios that do not need to de-HVO.

Yu has a fix which I'll send along later via the hotfixes branch.
- In the series "mm: Avoid possible overflows in dirty throttling" Jan
Kara addresses a couple of issues in the writeback throttling code.
These fixes are also targetted at -stable kernels.
- Ryusuke Konishi's series "nilfs2: fix potential issues related to
reserved inodes" does that. This should actually be in the
mm-nonmm-stable tree, along with the many other nilfs2 patches. My bad.
- More folio conversions from Kefeng Wang in the series "mm: convert to
folio_alloc_mpol()"
- Kemeng Shi has sent some cleanups to the writeback code in the series
"Add helper functions to remove repeated code and improve readability of
cgroup writeback"
- Kairui Song has made the swap code a little smaller and a little
faster in the series "mm/swap: clean up and optimize swap cache index".
- In the series "mm/memory: cleanly support zeropage in
vm_insert_page*(), vm_map_pages*() and vmf_insert_mixed()" David
Hildenbrand has reworked the rather sketchy handling of the use of the
zeropage in MAP_SHARED mappings. I don't see any runtime effects here -
more a cleanup/understandability/maintainablity thing.
- Dev Jain has improved selftests/mm/va_high_addr_switch.c's handling of
higher addresses, for aarch64. The (poorly named) series is
"Restructure va_high_addr_switch".
- The core TLB handling code gets some cleanups and possible slight
optimizations in Bang Li's series "Add update_mmu_tlb_range() to
simplify code".
- Jane Chu has improved the handling of our
fake-an-unrecoverable-memory-error testing feature MADV_HWPOISON in the
series "Enhance soft hwpoison handling and injection".
- Jeff Johnson has sent a billion patches everywhere to add
MODULE_DESCRIPTION() to everything. Some landed in this pull.
- In the series "mm: cleanup MIGRATE_SYNC_NO_COPY mode", Kefeng Wang has
simplified migration's use of hardware-offload memory copying.
- Yosry Ahmed performs more folio API conversions in his series "mm:
zswap: trivial folio conversions".
- In the series "large folios swap-in: handle refault cases first",
Chuanhua Han inches us forward in the handling of large pages in the
swap code. This is a cleanup and optimization, working toward the end
objective of full support of large folio swapin/out.
- In the series "mm,swap: cleanup VMA based swap readahead window
calculation", Huang Ying has contributed some cleanups and a possible
fixlet to his VMA based swap readahead code.
- In the series "add mTHP support for anonymous shmem" Baolin Wang has
taught anonymous shmem mappings to use multisize THP. By default this
is a no-op - users must opt in vis sysfs controls. Dramatic
improvements in pagefault latency are realized.
- David Hildenbrand has some cleanups to our remaining use of
page_mapcount() in the series "fs/proc: move page_mapcount() to
fs/proc/internal.h".
- David also has some highmem accounting cleanups in the series
"mm/highmem: don't track highmem pages manually".
- Build-time fixes and cleanups from John Hubbard in the series
"cleanups, fixes, and progress towards avoiding "make headers"".
- Cleanups and consolidation of the core pagemap handling from Barry
Song in the series "mm: introduce pmd|pte_needs_soft_dirty_wp helpers
and utilize them".
- Lance Yang's series "Reclaim lazyfree THP without splitting" has
reduced the latency of the reclaim of pmd-mapped THPs under fairly
common circumstances. A 10x speedup is seen in a microbenchmark.
It does this by punting to aother CPU but I guess that's a win unless
all CPUs are pegged.
- hugetlb_cgroup cleanups from Xiu Jianfeng in the series
"mm/hugetlb_cgroup: rework on cftypes".
- Miaohe Lin's series "Some cleanups for memory-failure" does just that
thing.
- Is anyone reading this stuff? If so, email me!
- Someone other than SeongJae has developed a DAMON feature in Honggyu
Kim's series "DAMON based tiered memory management for CXL memory".
This adds DAMON features which may be used to help determine the
efficiency of our placement of CXL/PCIe attached DRAM.
- DAMON user API centralization and simplificatio work in SeongJae
Park's series "mm/damon: introduce DAMON parameters online commit
function".
- In the series "mm: page_type, zsmalloc and page_mapcount_reset()"
David Hildenbrand does some maintenance work on zsmalloc - partially
modernizing its use of pageframe fields.
- Kefeng Wang provides more folio conversions in the series "mm: remove
page_maybe_dma_pinned() and page_mkclean()".
- More cleanup from David Hildenbrand, this time in the series
"mm/memory_hotplug: use PageOffline() instead of PageReserved() for
!ZONE_DEVICE". It "enlightens memory hotplug more about PageOffline()
pages" and permits the removal of some virtio-mem hacks.
- Barry Song's series "mm: clarify folio_add_new_anon_rmap() and
__folio_add_anon_rmap()" is a cleanup to the anon folio handling in
preparation for mTHP (multisize THP) swapin.
- Kefeng Wang's series "mm: improve clear and copy user folio"
implements more folio conversions, this time in the area of large folio
userspace copying.
- The series "Docs/mm/damon/maintaier-profile: document a mailing tool
and community meetup series" tells people how to get better involved
with other DAMON developers. From SeongJae Park.
- A large series ("kmsan: Enable on s390") from Ilya Leoshkevich does
that.
- David Hildenbrand sends along more cleanups, this time against the
migration code. The series is "mm/migrate: move NUMA hinting fault
folio isolation + checks under PTL".
- Jan Kara has found quite a lot of strangenesses and minor errors in
the readahead code. He addresses this in the series "mm: Fix various
readahead quirks".
- SeongJae Park's series "selftests/damon: test DAMOS tried regions and
{min,max}_nr_regions" adds features and addresses errors in DAMON's self
testing code.
- Gavin Shan has found a userspace-triggerable WARN in the pagecache
code. The series "mm/filemap: Limit page cache size to that supported
by xarray" addresses this. The series is marked cc:stable.
- Chengming Zhou's series "mm/ksm: cmp_and_merge_page() optimizations
and cleanup" cleans up and slightly optimizes KSM.
- Roman Gushchin has separated the memcg-v1 and memcg-v2 code - lots of
code motion. The series (which also makes the memcg-v1 code
Kconfigurable) are
"mm: memcg: separate legacy cgroup v1 code and put under config
option" and
"mm: memcg: put cgroup v1-specific memcg data under CONFIG_MEMCG_V1"
- Dan Schatzberg's series "Add swappiness argument to memory.reclaim"
adds an additional feature to this cgroup-v2 control file.
- The series "Userspace controls soft-offline pages" from Jiaqi Yan
permits userspace to stop the kernel's automatic treatment of excessive
correctable memory errors. In order to permit userspace to monitor and
handle this situation.
- Kefeng Wang's series "mm: migrate: support poison recover from migrate
folio" teaches the kernel to appropriately handle migration from
poisoned source folios rather than simply panicing.
- SeongJae Park's series "Docs/damon: minor fixups and improvements"
does those things.
- In the series "mm/zsmalloc: change back to per-size_class lock"
Chengming Zhou improves zsmalloc's scalability and memory utilization.
- Vivek Kasireddy's series "mm/gup: Introduce memfd_pin_folios() for
pinning memfd folios" makes the GUP code use FOLL_PIN rather than bare

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- In the series "mm: Avoid possible overflows in dirty throttling" Jan
Kara addresses a couple of issues in the writeback throttling code.
These fixes are also targetted at -stable kernels.
- Ryusuke Konishi's series "nilfs2: fix potential issues related to
reserved inodes" does that. This should actually be in the
mm-nonmm-stable tree, along with the many other nilfs2 patches. My
bad.
- More folio conversions from Kefeng Wang in the series "mm: convert to
folio_alloc_mpol()"
- Kemeng Shi has sent some cleanups to the writeback code in the series
"Add helper functions to remove repeated code and improve readability
of cgroup writeback"
- Kairui Song has made the swap code a little smaller and a little
faster in the series "mm/swap: clean up and optimize swap cache
index".
- In the series "mm/memory: cleanly support zeropage in
vm_insert_page*(), vm_map_pages*() and vmf_insert_mixed()" David
Hildenbrand has reworked the rather sketchy handling of the use of
the zeropage in MAP_SHARED mappings. I don't see any runtime effects
here - more a cleanup/understandability/maintainablity thing.
- Dev Jain has improved selftests/mm/va_high_addr_switch.c's handling
of higher addresses, for aarch64. The (poorly named) series is
"Restructure va_high_addr_switch".
- The core TLB handling code gets some cleanups and possible slight
optimizations in Bang Li's series "Add update_mmu_tlb_range() to
simplify code".
- Jane Chu has improved the handling of our
fake-an-unrecoverable-memory-error testing feature MADV_HWPOISON in
the series "Enhance soft hwpoison handling and injection".
- Jeff Johnson has sent a billion patches everywhere to add
MODULE_DESCRIPTION() to everything. Some landed in this pull.
- In the series "mm: cleanup MIGRATE_SYNC_NO_COPY mode", Kefeng Wang
has simplified migration's use of hardware-offload memory copying.
- Yosry Ahmed performs more folio API conversions in his series "mm:
zswap: trivial folio conversions".
- In the series "large folios swap-in: handle refault cases first",
Chuanhua Han inches us forward in the handling of large pages in the
swap code. This is a cleanup and optimization, working toward the end
objective of full support of large folio swapin/out.
- In the series "mm,swap: cleanup VMA based swap readahead window
calculation", Huang Ying has contributed some cleanups and a possible
fixlet to his VMA based swap readahead code.
- In the series "add mTHP support for anonymous shmem" Baolin Wang has
taught anonymous shmem mappings to use multisize THP. By default this
is a no-op - users must opt in vis sysfs controls. Dramatic
improvements in pagefault latency are realized.
- David Hildenbrand has some cleanups to our remaining use of
page_mapcount() in the series "fs/proc: move page_mapcount() to
fs/proc/internal.h".
- David also has some highmem accounting cleanups in the series
"mm/highmem: don't track highmem pages manually".
- Build-time fixes and cleanups from John Hubbard in the series
"cleanups, fixes, and progress towards avoiding "make headers"".
- Cleanups and consolidation of the core pagemap handling from Barry
Song in the series "mm: introduce pmd|pte_needs_soft_dirty_wp helpers
and utilize them".
- Lance Yang's series "Reclaim lazyfree THP without splitting" has
reduced the latency of the reclaim of pmd-mapped THPs under fairly
common circumstances. A 10x speedup is seen in a microbenchmark.
It does this by punting to aother CPU but I guess that's a win unless
all CPUs are pegged.
- hugetlb_cgroup cleanups from Xiu Jianfeng in the series
"mm/hugetlb_cgroup: rework on cftypes".
- Miaohe Lin's series "Some cleanups for memory-failure" does just that
thing.
- Someone other than SeongJae has developed a DAMON feature in Honggyu
Kim's series "DAMON based tiered memory management for CXL memory".
This adds DAMON features which may be used to help determine the
efficiency of our placement of CXL/PCIe attached DRAM.
- DAMON user API centralization and simplificatio work in SeongJae
Park's series "mm/damon: introduce DAMON parameters online commit
function".
- In the series "mm: page_type, zsmalloc and page_mapcount_reset()"
David Hildenbrand does some maintenance work on zsmalloc - partially
modernizing its use of pageframe fields.
- Kefeng Wang provides more folio conversions in the series "mm: remove
page_maybe_dma_pinned() and page_mkclean()".
- More cleanup from David Hildenbrand, this time in the series
"mm/memory_hotplug: use PageOffline() instead of PageReserved() for
!ZONE_DEVICE". It "enlightens memory hotplug more about PageOffline()
pages" and permits the removal of some virtio-mem hacks.
- Barry Song's series "mm: clarify folio_add_new_anon_rmap() and
__folio_add_anon_rmap()" is a cleanup to the anon folio handling in
preparation for mTHP (multisize THP) swapin.
- Kefeng Wang's series "mm: improve clear and copy user folio"
implements more folio conversions, this time in the area of large
folio userspace copying.
- The series "Docs/mm/damon/maintaier-profile: document a mailing tool
and community meetup series" tells people how to get better involved
with other DAMON developers. From SeongJae Park.
- A large series ("kmsan: Enable on s390") from Ilya Leoshkevich does
that.
- David Hildenbrand sends along more cleanups, this time against the
migration code. The series is "mm/migrate: move NUMA hinting fault
folio isolation + checks under PTL".
- Jan Kara has found quite a lot of strangenesses and minor errors in
the readahead code. He addresses this in the series "mm: Fix various
readahead quirks".
- SeongJae Park's series "selftests/damon: test DAMOS tried regions and
{min,max}_nr_regions" adds features and addresses errors in DAMON's
self testing code.
- Gavin Shan has found a userspace-triggerable WARN in the pagecache
code. The series "mm/filemap: Limit page cache size to that supported
by xarray" addresses this. The series is marked cc:stable.
- Chengming Zhou's series "mm/ksm: cmp_and_merge_page() optimizations
and cleanup" cleans up and slightly optimizes KSM.
- Roman Gushchin has separated the memcg-v1 and memcg-v2 code - lots of
code motion. The series (which also makes the memcg-v1 code
Kconfigurable) are "mm: memcg: separate legacy cgroup v1 code and put
under config option" and "mm: memcg: put cgroup v1-specific memcg
data under CONFIG_MEMCG_V1"
- Dan Schatzberg's series "Add swappiness argument to memory.reclaim"
adds an additional feature to this cgroup-v2 control file.
- The series "Userspace controls soft-offline pages" from Jiaqi Yan
permits userspace to stop the kernel's automatic treatment of
excessive correctable memory errors. In order to permit userspace to
monitor and handle this situation.
- Kefeng Wang's series "mm: migrate: support poison recover from
migrate folio" teaches the kernel to appropriately handle migration
from poisoned source folios rather than simply panicing.
- SeongJae Park's series "Docs/damon: minor fixups and improvements"
does those things.

Chengming Zhou improves zsmalloc's scalability and memory
utilization.
- Vivek Kasireddy's series "mm/gup: Introduce memfd_pin_folios() for
pinning memfd folios" makes the GUP code use FOLL_PIN rather than
bare refcount increments. So these paes can first be moved aside if
they reside in the movable zone or a CMA block.

On powerpc 8xx huge_ptep_get() will need to know whether the given ptep is
a PTE entry or a PMD entry. This cannot be known with the PMD entry
itself because there is no easy way to know it from the content of the
entry.
So huge_ptep_get() will need to know either the size of the page or get
the pmd.
In order to be consistent with huge_ptep_get_and_clear(), give mm and
address to huge_ptep_get().

There is a potential race between __update_and_free_hugetlb_folio() and
try_memory_failure_hugetlb():
CPU1 CPU2
__update_and_free_hugetlb_folio try_memory_failure_hugetlb
folio_test_hugetlb

folio_clear_hugetlb_hwpoison
spin_lock_irq(&hugetlb_lock);

spin_lock_irq(&hugetlb_lock);
__folio_clear_hugetlb(folio);
-- Hugetlb flag is cleared but too late.
spin_unlock_irq(&hugetlb_lock);
When the above race occurs, raw error page info will be leaked. Even
worse, raw error pages won't have hwpoisoned flag set and hit
pcplists/buddy. Fix this issue by deferring
folio_clear_hugetlb_hwpoison() until __folio_clear_hugetlb() is done. So
all raw error pages will have hwpoisoned flag set.

Patch series "mm/ksm: cmp_and_merge_page() optimizations and cleanup", v2.
This series mainly optimizes cmp_and_merge_page() to have more efficient
separate code flow for ksm page and non-ksm anon page.
- ksm page: don't need to calculate the checksum obviously.
- anon page: don't need to search stable tree if changing fast and try
to merge with zero page before searching ksm page on stable tree.
Please see the patch-2 for details.
Patch-3 is cleanup also a little optimization for the chain()/chain_prune
interfaces, which made the stable_tree_search()/stable_tree_insert() over
complex.
I have done simple testing using "hackbench -g 1 -l 300000" (maybe I need
to use a better workload) on my machine, have seen a little CPU usage
decrease of ksmd and some improvements of cmp_and_merge_page() latency:
We can see the latency of cmp_and_merge_page() when handling non-ksm anon
pages has been improved.
This patch (of 3):
In preparation for later changes, refactor out a new function called
try_to_merge_with_zero_page(), which tries to merge with zero page.

When trying to allocate a hugepage with no reserved ones free, it may be
allowed in case a number of overcommit hugepages was configured (using
/proc/sys/vm/nr_overcommit_hugepages) and that number wasn't reached.
This allows for a behavior of having extra hugepages allocated
dynamically, if there're resources for it. Some sysadmins even prefer not
reserving any hugepages and setting a big number of overcommit hugepages.
But while attempting to allocate overcommit hugepages in a multi node
system (either NUMA or mempolicy/cpuset) said allocations might randomly
fail even when there're resources available for the allocation.
This happens due to allowed_mems_nr() only accounting for the number of
free hugepages in the nodes the current process belongs to and the surplus
hugepage allocation is done so it can be allocated in any node. In case
one or more of the requested surplus hugepages are allocated in a
different node, the whole allocation will fail due allowed_mems_nr()
returning a lower value.
So allocate surplus hugepages in one of the nodes the current process
belongs to.
Easy way to reproduce this issue is to use a 2+ NUMA nodes system:
# echo 0 >/proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages
# echo 1 >/proc/sys/vm/nr_overcommit_hugepages
# numactl -m0 ./tools/testing/selftests/mm/map_hugetlb 2
Repeating the execution of map_hugetlb test application will eventually
fail when the hugepage ends up allocated in a different node.

While investigating HVO for THPs [1], it turns out that speculative PFN
walkers like compaction can race with vmemmap modifications, e.g.,
CPU 1 (vmemmap modifier) CPU 2 (speculative PFN walker)
------------------------------- ------------------------------
Allocates an LRU folio page1
Sees page1
Frees page1
Allocates a hugeTLB folio page2
(page1 being a tail of page2)
Updates vmemmap mapping page1
get_page_unless_zero(page1)
Even though page1->_refcount is zero after HVO, get_page_unless_zero() can
still try to modify this read-only field, resulting in a crash.
An independent report [2] confirmed this race.
There are two discussed approaches to fix this race:
1. Make RO vmemmap RW so that get_page_unless_zero() can fail without
triggering a PF.
2. Use RCU to make sure get_page_unless_zero() either sees zero
page->_refcount through the old vmemmap or non-zero page->_refcount
through the new one.
The second approach is preferred here because:
1. It can prevent illegal modifications to struct page[] that has been
HVO'ed;
2. It can be generalized, in a way similar to ZERO_PAGE(), to fix
similar races in other places, e.g., arch_remove_memory() on x86
[3], which frees vmemmap mapping offlined struct page[].
While adding synchronize_rcu(), the goal is to be surgical, rather than
optimized. Specifically, calls to synchronize_rcu() on the error handling
paths can be coalesced, but it is not done for the sake of Simplicity:
noticeably, this fix removes ~50% more lines than it adds.
According to the hugetlb_optimize_vmemmap section in
Documentation/admin-guide/sysctl/vm.rst, enabling HVO makes allocating or
freeing hugeTLB pages "~2x slower than before". Having synchronize_rcu()
on top makes those operations even worse, and this also affects the user
interface /proc/sys/vm/nr_overcommit_hugepages.
This is *very* hard to trigger:
1. Most hugeTLB use cases I know of are static, i.e., reserved at
boot time, because allocating at runtime is not reliable at all.
2. On top of that, someone has to be very unlucky to get tripped
over above, because the race window is so small -- I wasn't able to
trigger it with a stress testing that does nothing but that (with
THPs though).

Patch series "mm: improve clear and copy user folio", v2.
Some folio conversions. An improvement is to move address alignment into
the caller as it is only needed if we don't know which address will be
accessed when clearing/copying user folios.
This patch (of 4):
Replace clear_huge_page() with folio_zero_user(), and take a folio
instead of a page. Directly get number of pages by folio_nr_pages()
to remove pages_per_huge_page argument, furthermore, move the address
alignment from folio_zero_user() to the callers since the alignment
is only needed when we don't know which address will be accessed.

The sysctl core is preparing to only expose instances of struct ctl_table
as "const". This will also affect the ctl_table argument of sysctl
handlers.
As the function prototype of all sysctl handlers throughout the tree
needs to stay consistent that change will be done in one commit.
To reduce the size of that final commit, switch utility functions which
are not bound by "typedef proc_handler" to "const struct ctl_table".
No functional change.

Patch series "Minor fixups for hugetlb fault path".
This series contains a couple of fixups for hugetlb_fault and hugetlb_wp
respectively, where a VM_FAULT_SET_HINDEX call was missing.
I did not bother with a Fixes tag because the missing piece here is that
we will not report to userspace the right extension of the faulty area by
adjusting struct kernel_siginfo.si_addr_lsb, but I do not consider that to
be a big issue because I assume that userspace already knows the size of
the mapping anyway.
This patch (of 2):
commit af19487f00 ("mm: make PTE_MARKER_SWAPIN_ERROR more general")
added the code to handle pte_markers in hugetlb faulting path. In case of
an UFFD_POISON event, a PTE_MARKER_POISONED will be created and we will
return VM_FAULT_HWPOISON_LARGE upon detecting that in the fault path. Add
the missing VM_FAULT_SET_HINDEX, so the right si_addr_lsb will be passed
to userspace to report the extension of the faulty area.

More details can be found in [1], especially around how hugetlb pages

these vmsplice() leaks for hugetlb -- in contrast to ordinary memory.

Let's track the mapcount of large folios in a single value. The mapcount
of a large folio currently corresponds to the sum of the entire mapcount
and all page mapcounts.
This sum is what we actually want to know in folio_mapcount() and it is
also sufficient for implementing folio_mapped().
With PTE-mapped THP becoming more important and more widely used, we want
to avoid looping over all pages of a folio just to obtain the mapcount of
large folios. The comment "In the common case, avoid the loop when no
pages mapped by PTE" in folio_total_mapcount() does no longer hold for
mTHP that are always mapped by PTE.
Further, we are planning on using folio_mapcount() more frequently, and
might even want to remove page mapcounts for large folios in some kernel
configs. Therefore, allow for reading the mapcount of large folios
efficiently and atomically without looping over any pages.
Maintain the mapcount also for hugetlb pages for simplicity. Use the new
mapcount to implement folio_mapcount() and folio_mapped(). Make
page_mapped() simply call folio_mapped(). We can now get rid of
folio_large_is_mapped().
_nr_pages_mapped is now only used in rmap code and for debugging purposes.
Keep folio_nr_pages_mapped() around, but document that its use should be
limited to rmap internals and debugging purposes.
This change implies one additional atomic add/sub whenever
mapping/unmapping (parts of) a large folio.
As we now batch RMAP operations for PTE-mapped THP during fork(), during
unmap/zap, and when PTE-remapping a PMD-mapped THP, and we adjust the
large mapcount for a PTE batch only once, the added overhead in the common
case is small. Only when unmapping individual pages of a large folio
(e.g., during COW), the overhead might be bigger in comparison, but it's
essentially one additional atomic operation.
Note that before the new mapcount would overflow, already our refcount
would overflow: each mapping requires a folio reference. Extend the
focumentation of folio_mapcount().

The hugetlb_cma code passes 0 in the order_per_bit argument to
cma_declare_contiguous_nid (the alignment, computed using the page order,
is correctly passed in).
This causes a bit in the cma allocation bitmap to always represent a 4k
page, making the bitmaps potentially very large, and slower.
It would create bitmaps that would be pretty big. E.g. for a 4k page
size on x86, hugetlb_cma=64G would mean a bitmap size of (64G / 4k) / 8
== 2M. With HUGETLB_PAGE_ORDER as order_per_bit, as intended, this
would be (64G / 2M) / 8 == 4k. So, that's quite a difference.
Also, this restricted the hugetlb_cma area to ((PAGE_SIZE <<
MAX_PAGE_ORDER) * 8) * PAGE_SIZE (e.g. 128G on x86) , since
bitmap_alloc uses normal page allocation, and is thus restricted by
MAX_PAGE_ORDER. Specifying anything about that would fail the CMA
initialization.
So, correctly pass in the order instead.

Now follow_page() is ready to handle hugetlb pages in whatever form, and
over all architectures. Switch to the generic code path.
Time to retire hugetlb_follow_page_mask(), following the previous
retirement of follow_hugetlb_page() in 4849807114.
There may be a slight difference of how the loops run when processing slow
GUP over a large hugetlb range on cont_pte/cont_pmd supported archs: each
loop of __get_user_pages() will resolve one pgtable entry with the patch
applied, rather than relying on the size of hugetlb hstate, the latter may
cover multiple entries in one loop.
A quick performance test on an aarch64 VM on M1 chip shows 15% degrade
over a tight loop of slow gup after the path switched. That shouldn't be
a problem because slow-gup should not be a hot path for GUP in general:
when page is commonly present, fast-gup will already succeed, while when
the page is indeed missing and require a follow up page fault, the slow
gup degrade will probably buried in the fault paths anyway. It also
explains why slow gup for THP used to be very slow before 57edfcfd34
("mm/gup: accelerate thp gup even for "pages != NULL"") lands, the latter
not part of a performance analysis but a side benefit. If the performance
will be a concern, we can consider handle CONT_PTE in follow_page().
Before that is justified to be necessary, keep everything clean and simple.

As discussed in previous thread [1], there is an inconsistency when
handing hugetlb migration. When handling the migration of freed hugetlb,
it prevents fallback to other NUMA nodes in
alloc_and_dissolve_hugetlb_folio(). However, when dealing with in-use
hugetlb, it allows fallback to other NUMA nodes in
alloc_hugetlb_folio_nodemask(), which can break the per-node hugetlb pool
and might result in unexpected failures when node bound workloads doesn't
get what is asssumed available.
To make hugetlb migration strategy more clear, we should list all the scenarios
of hugetlb migration and analyze whether allocation fallback is permitted:
1) Memory offline: will call dissolve_free_huge_pages() to free the
freed hugetlb, and call do_migrate_range() to migrate the in-use
hugetlb. Both can break the per-node hugetlb pool, but as this is an
explicit offlining operation, no better choice. So should allow the
hugetlb allocation fallback.
2) Memory failure: same as memory offline. Should allow fallback to a
different node might be the only option to handle it, otherwise the
impact of poisoned memory can be amplified.
3) Longterm pinning: will call migrate_longterm_unpinnable_pages() to
migrate in-use and not-longterm-pinnable hugetlb, which can break the
per-node pool. But we should fail to longterm pinning if can not
allocate on current node to avoid breaking the per-node pool.
4) Syscalls (mbind, migrate_pages, move_pages): these are explicit
users operation to move pages to other nodes, so fallback to other
nodes should not be prohibited.
5) alloc_contig_range: used by CMA allocation and virtio-mem
fake-offline to allocate given range of pages. Now the freed hugetlb
migration is not allowed to fallback, to keep consistency, the in-use
hugetlb migration should be also not allowed to fallback.
6) alloc_contig_pages: used by kfence, pgtable_debug etc. The strategy
should be consistent with that of alloc_contig_range().
Based on the analysis of the various scenarios above, introducing a new
helper to determine whether fallback is permitted according to the
migration reason..

Patch series "Various significant MM patches".
These patches all interact in annoying ways which make it tricky to send
them out in any way other than a big batch, even though there's not really
an overarching theme to connect them.
The big effects of this patch series are:
- folio_test_hugetlb() becomes reliable, even when called without a
page reference
- We free up PG_slab, and we could always use more page flags
- We no longer need to check PageSlab before calling page_mapcount()
This patch (of 9):
For compound pages which are at least order-2 (and hence have a
deferred_list), initialise it and then we can check at free that the page
is not part of a deferred list. We recently found this useful to rule out
a source of corruption.

Commit 9acad7ba3e ("hugetlb: use vmf_anon_prepare() instead of
anon_vma_prepare()") may bailout after allocating a folio if we do not
hold the mmap lock. When this occurs, vmf_anon_prepare() will release the
vma lock. Hugetlb then attempts to call restore_reserve_on_error(), which
depends on the vma lock being held.
We can move vmf_anon_prepare() prior to the folio allocation in order to
avoid calling restore_reserve_on_error() without the vma lock.

The current folio_test_hugetlb() can be fooled by a concurrent folio split
into returning true for a folio which has never belonged to hugetlbfs.
This can't happen if the caller holds a refcount on it, but we have a few
places (memory-failure, compaction, procfs) which do not and should not
take a speculative reference.
Since hugetlb pages do not use individual page mapcounts (they are always
fully mapped and use the entire_mapcount field to record the number of
mappings), the PageType field is available now that page_mapcount()
ignores the value in this field.
In compaction and with CONFIG_DEBUG_VM enabled, the current implementation
can result in an oops, as reported by Luis. This happens since 9c5ccf2db0
("mm: remove HUGETLB_PAGE_DTOR") effectively added some VM_BUG_ON() checks
in the PageHuge() testing path.

350: lockdep_assert_held(&hugetlb_lock);
Should be an issue in hugetlb but triggered in an userfault context, where
it goes into the unlikely path where two threads modifying the resv map
together. Mike has a fix in that path for resv uncharge but it looks like
the locking criteria was overlooked: hugetlb_cgroup_uncharge_folio_rsvd()
will update the cgroup pointer, so it requires to be called with the lock

After UFFDIO_POISON, there can be two kinds of hugetlb pte markers, either
the POISON one or UFFD_WP one.
Allow change protection to run on a poisoned marker just like !hugetlb
cases, ignoring the marker irrelevant of the permission.
Here the two bits are mutual exclusive. For example, when install a
poisoned entry it must not be UFFD_WP already (by checking pte_none()
before such install). And it also means if UFFD_WP is set there must have
no POISON bit set. It makes sense because UFFD_WP is a bit to reflect
permission, and permissions do not apply if the pte is poisoned and
destined to sigbus.
So here we simply check uffd_wp bit set first, do nothing otherwise.
Attach the Fixes to UFFDIO_POISON work, as before that it should not be
possible to have poison entry for hugetlb (e.g., hugetlb doesn't do swap,
so no chance of swapin errors).

Users of UFFDIO_CONTINUE may reasonably assume that a write memory barrier
is included as part of UFFDIO_CONTINUE. That is, a user may believe that
all writes it has done to a page that it is now UFFDIO_CONTINUE'ing are
guaranteed to be visible to anyone subsequently reading the page through
the newly mapped virtual memory region.
Today, such a user happens to be correct. mmget_not_zero(), for example,
is called as part of UFFDIO_CONTINUE (and comes before any PTE updates),
and it implicitly gives us a write barrier.
To be resilient against future changes, include an explicit smp_wmb().
While we're at it, optimize the smp_wmb() that is already incidentally
present for the HugeTLB case.
Merely making a syscall does not generally imply the memory ordering
constraints that we need (including on x86).

With parallelization of hugetlb allocation across different threads, each
thread works on a differnet node to allocate pages from, instead of all
allocating from a common node h->next_nid_to_alloc. To address this, it's
necessary to assign a separate next_nid_to_alloc for each thread.
Consequently, the hstate_next_node_to_alloc and
for_each_node_mask_to_alloc have been modified to directly accept a
*next_nid_to_alloc parameter, ensuring thread-specific allocation and
avoiding concurrent access issues.

Patch series "hugetlb: parallelize hugetlb page init on boot", v6.
Introduction
------------
Hugetlb initialization during boot takes up a considerable amount of time.
For instance, on a 2TB system, initializing 1,800 1GB huge pages takes
1-2 seconds out of 10 seconds. Initializing 11,776 1GB pages on a 12TB
Intel host takes more than 1 minute[1]. This is a noteworthy figure.
Inspired by [2] and [3], hugetlb initialization can also be accelerated
through parallelization. Kernel already has infrastructure like
padata_do_multithreaded, this patch uses it to achieve effective results
by minimal modifications.

max_threads
-----------
This patch use `padata_do_multithreaded` like this:
```
job.max_threads = num_node_state(N_MEMORY) * multiplier;
padata_do_multithreaded(&job);
```
To fully utilize the CPU, the number of parallel threads needs to be
carefully considered. `max_threads = num_node_state(N_MEMORY)` does not
fully utilize the CPU, so we need to multiply it by a multiplier.
Tests below indicate that a multiplier of 2 significantly improves
performance, and although larger values also provide improvements, the
gains are marginal.
multiplier 1 2 3 4 5
------------ ------- ------- ------- ------- -------
256G 2node 358ms 215ms 157ms 134ms 126ms
2T 4node 979ms 679ms 543ms 489ms 481ms
50G 2node 71ms 44ms 37ms 30ms 31ms
Therefore, choosing 2 as the multiplier strikes a good balance between
enhancing parallel processing capabilities and maintaining efficient
resource management.

This patch (of 8):
The readability of `hugetlb_hstate_alloc_pages` is poor. By cleaning the
code, its readability can be improved, facilitating future modifications.
This patch extracts two functions to reduce the complexity of
`hugetlb_hstate_alloc_pages` and has no functional changes.
- hugetlb_hstate_alloc_pages_node_specific() to handle iterates through
each online node and performs allocation if necessary.
- hugetlb_hstate_alloc_pages_report() report error during allocation.
And the value of h->max_huge_pages is updated accordingly.

Hugetlb can now safely handle faults under the VMA lock, so allow it to do
so.
This patch may cause ltp hugemmap10 to "fail". Hugemmap10 tests hugetlb
counters, and expects the counters to remain unchanged on failure to
handle a fault.
In hugetlb_no_page(), vmf_anon_prepare() may bailout with no anon_vma
under the VMA lock after allocating a folio for the hugepage. In
free_huge_folio(), this folio is completely freed on bailout iff there is
a surplus of hugetlb pages. This will remove a folio off the freelist and
decrement the number of hugepages while ltp expects these counters to
remain unchanged on failure.
Originally this could only happen due to OOM failures, but now it may also
occur after we allocate a hugetlb folio without a suitable anon_vma under
the VMA lock. This should only happen for the first freshly allocated
hugepage in this vma.

hugetlb_fault() currently defines a vm_fault to pass to the generic
handle_userfault() function. We can move this definition to the top of
hugetlb_fault() so that it can be used throughout the rest of the hugetlb
fault path.
This will help cleanup a number of excess variables and function arguments
throughout the stack. Also, since vm_fault already has space to store the
page offset, use that instead and get rid of idx.
