As message in commit 7df676974359 ("mm/memory.c: Update local TLB if PTE

So in the do_anonymous_page() here, we should use update_mmu_tlb()
instead of update_mmu_cache() on the second thread.

As David pointed out, this is a performance improvement, not a
correctness fix.

mm/memory.c: fix race when faulting a device private page

Patch series "Fix several device private page reference counting issues",
v2

This series aims to fix a number of page reference counting issues in
drivers dealing with device private ZONE_DEVICE pages. These result in
use-after-free type bugs, either from accessing a struct page which no
longer exists because it has been removed or accessing fields within the
struct page which are no longer valid because the page has been freed.

During normal usage it is unlikely these will cause any problems. However
without these fixes it is possible to crash the kernel from userspace.
These crashes can be triggered either by unloading the kernel module or
unbinding the device from the driver prior to a userspace task exiting.
In modules such as Nouveau it is also possible to trigger some of these
issues by explicitly closing the device file-descriptor prior to the task
exiting and then accessing device private memory.

This involves some minor changes to both PowerPC and AMD GPU code.
Unfortunately I lack hardware to test either of those so any help there
would be appreciated. The changes mimic what is done in for both Nouveau
and hmm-tests though so I doubt they will cause problems.


This patch (of 8):

When the CPU tries to access a device private page the migrate_to_ram()
callback associated with the pgmap for the page is called. However no
reference is taken on the faulting page. Therefore a concurrent migration
of the device private page can free the page and possibly the underlying
pgmap. This results in a race which can crash the kernel due to the
migrate_to_ram() function pointer becoming invalid. It also means drivers
can't reliably read the zone_device_data field because the page may have
been freed with memunmap_pages().

Close the race by getting a reference on the page while holding the ptl to
ensure it has not been freed. Unfortunately the elevated reference count
will cause the migration required to handle the fault to fail. To avoid
this failure pass the faulting page into the migrate_vma functions so that
if an elevated reference count is found it can be checked to see if it's
expected or not.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:

- Yu Zhao's Multi-Gen LRU patches are here. They've been under test in
linux-next for a couple of months without, to my knowledge, any
negative reports (or any positive ones, come to that).

- Also the Maple Tree from Liam Howlett. An overlapping range-based
tree for vmas. It it apparently slightly more efficient in its own
right, but is mainly targeted at enabling work to reduce mmap_lock
contention.

Liam has identified a number of other tree users in the kernel which
could be beneficially onverted to mapletrees.

Yu Zhao has identified a hard-to-hit but "easy to fix" lockdep splat
at [1]. This has yet to be addressed due to Liam's unfortunately
timed vacation. He is now back and we'll get this fixed up.

- Dmitry Vyukov introduces KMSAN: the Kernel Memory Sanitizer. It uses
clang-generated instrumentation to detect used-unintialized bugs down
to the single bit level.

KMSAN keeps finding bugs. New ones, as well as the legacy ones.

- Yang Shi adds a userspace mechanism (madvise) to induce a collapse of
memory into THPs.

- Zach O'Keefe has expanded Yang Shi's madvise(MADV_COLLAPSE) to
support file/shmem-backed pages.

- userfaultfd updates from Axel Rasmussen

- zsmalloc cleanups from Alexey Romanov

- cleanups from Miaohe Lin: vmscan, hugetlb_cgroup, hugetlb and
memory-failure

- Huang Ying adds enhancements to NUMA balancing memory tiering mode's
page promotion, with a new way of detecting hot pages.

- memcg updates from Shakeel Butt: charging optimizations and reduced
memory consumption.

tiering promotion paths. For optimizations by PMEM drivers, DRM
drivers, etc.

hugetlb: fix vma lock handling during split vma and range unmapping

Patch series "hugetlb: fixes for new vma lock series".

In review of the series "hugetlb: Use new vma lock for huge pmd sharing
synchronization", Miaohe Lin pointed out two key issues:

1) There is a race in the routine hugetlb_unmap_file_folio when locks
are dropped and reacquired in the correct order [1].

2) With the switch to using vma lock for fault/truncate synchronization,
we need to make sure lock exists for all VM_MAYSHARE vmas, not just
vmas capable of pmd sharing.

These two issues are addressed here. In addition, having a vma lock
present in all VM_MAYSHARE vmas, uncovered some issues around vma
splitting. Those are also addressed.

[1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/01f10195-7088-4462-6def-909549c75ef4@huawei.com/


This patch (of 3):

The hugetlb vma lock hangs off the vm_private_data field and is specific
to the vma. When vm_area_dup() is called as part of vma splitting, the
vma lock pointer is copied to the new vma. This will result in issues
such as double freeing of the structure. Update the hugetlb open vm_ops
to allocate a new vma lock for the new vma.

The routine __unmap_hugepage_range_final unconditionally unset VM_MAYSHARE
to prevent subsequent pmd sharing. hugetlb_vma_lock_free attempted to
anticipate this by checking both VM_MAYSHARE and VM_SHARED. However, if
only VM_MAYSHARE was set we would miss the free. With the introduction of
the vma lock, a vma can not participate in pmd sharing if vm_private_data
is NULL. Instead of clearing VM_MAYSHARE in __unmap_hugepage_range_final,
free the vma lock to prevent sharing. Also, update the sharing code to
make sure vma lock is indeed a condition for pmd sharing.
hugetlb_vma_lock_free can then key off VM_MAYSHARE and not miss any vmas.

hugetlb: use new vma_lock for pmd sharing synchronization

The new hugetlb vma lock is used to address this race:

Faulting thread Unsharing thread
...

hugetlb: use new vma_lock for pmd sharing synchronization

The new hugetlb vma lock is used to address this race:

Faulting thread Unsharing thread
... ...
ptep = huge_pte_offset()
or
ptep = huge_pte_alloc()
...
i_mmap_lock_write
lock page table
ptep invalid <------------------------ huge_pmd_unshare()
Could be in a previously unlock_page_table
sharing process or worse i_mmap_unlock_write
...

The vma_lock is used as follows:
- During fault processing. The lock is acquired in read mode before
doing a page table lock and allocation (huge_pte_alloc). The lock is
held until code is finished with the page table entry (ptep).
- The lock must be held in write mode whenever huge_pmd_unshare is
called.

Lock ordering issues come into play when unmapping a page from all
vmas mapping the page. The i_mmap_rwsem must be held to search for the
vmas, and the vma lock must be held before calling unmap which will
call huge_pmd_unshare. This is done today in:
- try_to_migrate_one and try_to_unmap_ for page migration and memory
error handling. In these routines we 'try' to obtain the vma lock and
fail to unmap if unsuccessful. Calling routines already deal with the
failure of unmapping.
- hugetlb_vmdelete_list for truncation and hole punch. This routine
also tries to acquire the vma lock. If it fails, it skips the
unmapping. However, we can not have file truncation or hole punch
fail because of contention. After hugetlb_vmdelete_list, truncation
and hole punch call remove_inode_hugepages. remove_inode_hugepages
checks for mapped pages and call hugetlb_unmap_file_page to unmap them.
hugetlb_unmap_file_page is designed to drop locks and reacquire in the
correct order to guarantee unmap success.

mm: use nth_page instead of mem_map_offset mem_map_next

To handle the discontiguous case, mem_map_next() has a parameter named
`offset`. As a function caller, one would be confused why "get next
entry" needs a parameter named "offset". The other drawback of
mem_map_next() is that the callers must take care of the map between
parameter "iter" and "offset", otherwise we may get an hole or duplication
during iteration. So we use nth_page instead of mem_map_next.

And replace mem_map_offset with nth_page() per Matthew's comments.
