x86/mm: support __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SWP_EXCLUSIVE also on 32bit

Let's support __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SWP_EXCLUSIVE just like we already do on
x86-64. After deciphering the PTE layout it becomes clear that there are
still unused bits for 2-level and 3-level page tables that we should be
able to use. Reusing a bit avoids stealing one bit from the swap offset.

While at it, mask the type in __swp_entry(); use some helper definitions
to make the macros easier to grasp.

mm/x86: use SWP_TYPE_BITS in 3-level swap macros

Patch series "mm: Remember a/d bits for migration entries", v4.


Problem
=======

When migrating a page, right now we always mark the migrated page

mm/x86: use SWP_TYPE_BITS in 3-level swap macros

Patch series "mm: Remember a/d bits for migration entries", v4.


Problem
=======

When migrating a page, right now we always mark the migrated page as old &
clean.

However that could lead to at least two problems:

(1) We lost the real hot/cold information while we could have persisted.
That information shouldn't change even if the backing page is changed
after the migration,

(2) There can be always extra overhead on the immediate next access to
any migrated page, because hardware MMU needs cycles to set the young
bit again for reads, and dirty bits for write, as long as the
hardware MMU supports these bits.

Many of the recent upstream works showed that (2) is not something trivial
and actually very measurable. In my test case, reading 1G chunk of memory
- jumping in page size intervals - could take 99ms just because of the
extra setting on the young bit on a generic x86_64 system, comparing to
4ms if young set.

This issue is originally reported by Andrea Arcangeli.

Solution
========

To solve this problem, this patchset tries to remember the young/dirty
bits in the migration entries and carry them over when recovering the
ptes.

We have the chance to do so because in many systems the swap offset is not
really fully used. Migration entries use swp offset to store PFN only,
while the PFN is normally not as large as swp offset and normally smaller.
It means we do have some free bits in swp offset that we can use to store
things like A/D bits, and that's how this series tried to approach this
problem.

max_swapfile_size() is used here to detect per-arch offset length in swp
entries. We'll automatically remember the A/D bits when we find that we
have enough swp offset field to keep both the PFN and the extra bits.

Since max_swapfile_size() can be slow, the last two patches cache the
results for it and also swap_migration_ad_supported as a whole.

Known Issues / TODOs
====================

We still haven't taught madvise() to recognize the new A/D bits in
migration entries, namely MADV_COLD/MADV_FREE. E.g. when MADV_COLD upon
a migration entry. It's not clear yet on whether we should clear the A
bit, or we should just drop the entry directly.

We didn't teach idle page tracking on the new migration entries, because
it'll need larger rework on the tree on rmap pgtable walk. However it
should make it already better because before this patchset page will be
old page after migration, so the series will fix potential false negative
of idle page tracking when pages were migrated before observing.

The other thing is migration A/D bits will not start to working for
private device swap entries. The code is there for completeness but since
private device swap entries do not yet have fields to store A/D bits, even
if we'll persistent A/D across present pte switching to migration entry,
we'll lose it again when the migration entry converted to private device
swap entry.

Tests
=====

After the patchset applied, the immediate read access test [1] of above 1G
chunk after migration can shrink from 99ms to 4ms. The test is done by
moving 1G pages from node 0->1->0 then read it in page size jumps. The
test is with Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2630 v4 @ 2.20GHz.

Similar effect can also be measured when writting the memory the 1st time
after migration.

After applying the patchset, both initial immediate read/write after page
migrated will perform similarly like before migration happened.

Patch Layout
============

Patch 1-2: Cleanups from either previous versions or on swapops.h macros.

Patch 3-4: Prepare for the introduction of migration A/D bits

Patch 5: The core patch to remember young/dirty bit in swap offsets.

Patch 6-7: Cache relevant fields to make migration_entry_supports_ad() fast.

x86/pae: use 64 bit atomic xchg function in native_ptep_get_and_clear

Using only 32-bit writes for the pte will result in an intermediate
L1TF vulnerable PTE. When running as a Xen PV guest this will at once
switch the guest to shadow mode resulting in a loss of performance.

Use arch_atomic64_xchg() instead which will perform the requested
operation atomically with all 64 bits.

Some performance considerations according to:

https://software.intel.com/sites/default/files/managed/ad/dc/Intel-Xeon-Scalable-Processor-throughput-latency.pdf

The main number should be the latency, as there is no tight loop around
native_ptep_get_and_clear().

"lock cmpxchg8b" has a latency of 20 cycles, while "lock xchg" (with a
memory operand) isn't mentioned in that document. "lock xadd" (with xadd
having 3 cycles less latency than xchg) has a latency of 11, so we can
assume a latency of 14 for "lock xchg".

x86/speculation/l1tf: Protect PAE swap entries against L1TF

The PAE 3-level paging code currently doesn't mitigate L1TF by flipping the
offset bits, and uses the high PTE word, thus bits 32-36 for type, 37-63 for
offset. The lower word is zeroed, thus systems with less than 4GB memory are
safe. With 4GB to 128GB the swap type selects the memory locations vulnerable
to L1TF; with even more memory, also the swap offfset influences the address.
This might be a problem with 32bit PAE guests running on large 64bit hosts.

By continuing to keep the whole swap entry in either high or low 32bit word of
PTE we would limit the swap size too much. Thus this patch uses the whole PAE
PTE with the same layout as the 64bit version does. The macros just become a
bit tricky since they assume the arch-dependent swp_entry_t to be 32bit.

x86/speculation/l1tf: Protect PROT_NONE PTEs against speculation

When PTEs are set to PROT_NONE the kernel just clears the Present bit and
preserves the PFN, which creates attack surface for L1TF speculation
speculation attacks.

This is important inside guests, because L1TF speculation bypasses physical
page remapping. While the host has its own migitations preventing leaking
data from other VMs into the guest, this would still risk leaking the wrong
page inside the current guest.

This uses the same technique as Linus' swap entry patch: while an entry is
is in PROTNONE state invert the complete PFN part part of it. This ensures
that the the highest bit will point to non existing memory.

The invert is done by pte/pmd_modify and pfn/pmd/pud_pte for PROTNONE and
pte/pmd/pud_pfn undo it.

This assume that no code path touches the PFN part of a PTE directly
without using these primitives.

This doesn't handle the case that MMIO is on the top of the CPU physical
memory. If such an MMIO region was exposed by an unpriviledged driver for
mmap it would be possible to attack some real memory. However this
situation is all rather unlikely.

For 32bit non PAE the inversion is not done because there are really not
enough bits to protect anything.

Q: Why does the guest need to be protected when the HyperVisor already has
L1TF mitigations?

A: Here's an example:

Physical pages 1 2 get mapped into a guest as
GPA 1 -> PA 2
GPA 2 -> PA 1
through EPT.

The L1TF speculation ignores the EPT remapping.

Now the guest kernel maps GPA 1 to process A and GPA 2 to process B, and
they belong to different users and should be isolated.

A sets the GPA 1 PA 2 PTE to PROT_NONE to bypass the EPT remapping and
gets read access to the underlying physical page. Which in this case
points to PA 2, so it can read process B's data, if it happened to be in
L1, so isolation inside the guest is broken.

There's nothing the hypervisor can do about this. This mitigation has to
be done in the guest itself.

We need an atomic way to setup pmd page table entry, avoiding races with

On PAE we can avoid expensive cmpxchg8b for cases when new page table

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.

For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139

and resulted in the first patch in this series.

If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930

and resulted in the second patch in this series.

- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1

and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).

- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

This reverts commit 2947ba054a4dabbd82848728d765346886050029.

Dan Williams reported dax-pmem kernel warnings with the following signature:

WARNING: CPU: 8 PID: 245 at lib/percpu-refcount.c:155 percpu_ref_switch_to_atomic_rcu+0x1f5/0x200
percpu ref (dax_pmem_percpu_release [dax_pmem]) <= 0 (0) after switching to atomic

... and bisected it to this commit, which suggests possible memory corruption
caused by the x86 fast-GUP conversion.

He also pointed out:

"
This is similar to the backtrace when we were not properly handling
pud faults and was fixed with this commit: 220ced1676c4 "mm: fix
get_user_pages() vs device-dax pud mappings"

I've found some missing _devmap checks in the generic
get_user_pages_fast() path, but this does not fix the regression
[...]
"

So given that there are known bugs, and a pretty robust looking bisection
points to this commit suggesting that are unknown bugs in the conversion
as well, revert it for the time being - we'll re-try in v4.13.

mm, x86: Fix native_pud_clear build error

We still get a build error in random configurations, after this has been
modified a few times:

In file included from include/linux/mm.h:68:0,
from include/linux/suspend.h:8,
from arch/x86/kernel/asm-offsets.c:12:
arch/x86/include/asm/pgtable.h:66:26: error: redefinition of 'native_pud_clear'
#define pud_clear(pud) native_pud_clear(pud)

My interpretation is that the build error comes from a typo in __PAGETABLE_PUD_FOLDED,
so fix that typo now, and remove the incorrect #ifdef around the native_pud_clear
definition.

Looks like I also missed the build config that includes

mm, x86: add support for PUD-sized transparent hugepages

The current transparent hugepage code only supports PMDs. This patch
adds support for transparent use of PUDs with DAX. It does not include
support for anonymous pages. x86 support code also added.

Most of this patch simply parallels the work that was done for huge
PMDs. The only major difference is how the new ->pud_entry method in
mm_walk works. The ->pmd_entry method replaces the ->pte_entry method,
whereas the ->pud_entry method works along with either ->pmd_entry or
->pte_entry. The pagewalk code takes care of locking the PUD before
calling ->pud_walk, so handlers do not need to worry whether the PUD is
stable.
