commit 5e41540c8a0f0e98c337dda8b391e5dda0cde7cf upstream.

This bug has been experienced several times by the Oracle DB team.  The
BUG is in remove_inode_hugepages() as follows:

	/*
	 * If page is mapped, it was faulted in after being
	 * unmapped in caller.  Unmap (again) now after taking
	 * the fault mutex.  The mutex will prevent faults
	 * until we finish removing the page.
	 *
	 * This race can only happen in the hole punch case.
	 * Getting here in a truncate operation is a bug.
	 */
	if (unlikely(page_mapped(page))) {
		BUG_ON(truncate_op);

In this case, the elevated map count is not the result of a race.
Rather it was incorrectly incremented as the result of a bug in the huge
pmd sharing code.  Consider the following:

 - Process A maps a hugetlbfs file of sufficient size and alignment
   (PUD_SIZE) that a pmd page could be shared.

 - Process B maps the same hugetlbfs file with the same size and
   alignment such that a pmd page is shared.

 - Process B then calls mprotect() to change protections for the mapping
   with the shared pmd. As a result, the pmd is 'unshared'.

 - Process B then calls mprotect() again to chage protections for the
   mapping back to their original value. pmd remains unshared.

 - Process B then forks and process C is created. During the fork
   process, we do dup_mm -&gt; dup_mmap -&gt; copy_page_range to copy page
   tables. Copying page tables for hugetlb mappings is done in the
   routine copy_hugetlb_page_range.

In copy_hugetlb_page_range(), the destination pte is obtained by:

	dst_pte = huge_pte_alloc(dst, addr, sz);

If pmd sharing is possible, the returned pointer will be to a pte in an
existing page table.  In the situation above, process C could share with
either process A or process B.  Since process A is first in the list,
the returned pte is a pointer to a pte in process A's page table.

However, the check for pmd sharing in copy_hugetlb_page_range is:

	/* If the pagetables are shared don't copy or take references */
	if (dst_pte == src_pte)
		continue;

Since process C is sharing with process A instead of process B, the
above test fails.  The code in copy_hugetlb_page_range which follows
assumes dst_pte points to a huge_pte_none pte.  It copies the pte entry
from src_pte to dst_pte and increments this map count of the associated
page.  This is how we end up with an elevated map count.

To solve, check the dst_pte entry for huge_pte_none.  If !none, this
implies PMD sharing so do not copy.

commit dd33ad7b251f900481701b2a82d25de583867708 upstream.

We have received a bug report that unbinding a large pmem (&gt;1TB) can
result in a soft lockup:

  NMI watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#9 stuck for 23s! [ndctl:4365]

It has been reported on an older (4.12) kernel but the current upstream
code doesn't cond_resched in the hot remove code at all and the given
range to remove might be really large.  Fix the issue by calling
cond_resched once per memory section.

<title>hugetlbfs: dirty pages as they are added to pagecache</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 22146c3ce98962436e401f7b7016a6f664c9ffb5 upstream.

Some test systems were experiencing negative huge page reserve counts and
incorrect file block counts.  This was traced to /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
removing clean pages from hugetlbfs file pagecaches.  When non-hugetlbfs
explicit code removes the pages, the appropriate accounting is not
performed.

This can be recreated as follows:
 fallocate -l 2M /dev/hugepages/foo
 echo 1 &gt; /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
 fallocate -l 2M /dev/hugepages/foo
 grep -i huge /proc/meminfo
   AnonHugePages:         0 kB
   ShmemHugePages:        0 kB
   HugePages_Total:    2048
   HugePages_Free:     2047
   HugePages_Rsvd:    18446744073709551615
   HugePages_Surp:        0
   Hugepagesize:       2048 kB
   Hugetlb:         4194304 kB
 ls -lsh /dev/hugepages/foo
   4.0M -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 2.0M Oct 17 20:05 /dev/hugepages/foo

To address this issue, dirty pages as they are added to pagecache.  This
can easily be reproduced with fallocate as shown above.  Read faulted
pages will eventually end up being marked dirty.  But there is a window
where they are clean and could be impacted by code such as drop_caches.
So, just dirty them all as they are added to the pagecache.

<title>mremap: properly flush TLB before releasing the page</title>

commit eb66ae030829605d61fbef1909ce310e29f78821 upstream.

Jann Horn points out that our TLB flushing was subtly wrong for the
mremap() case.  What makes mremap() special is that we don't follow the
usual "add page to list of pages to be freed, then flush tlb, and then
free pages".  No, mremap() obviously just _moves_ the page from one page
table location to another.

That matters, because mremap() thus doesn't directly control the
lifetime of the moved page with a freelist: instead, the lifetime of the
page is controlled by the page table locking, that serializes access to
the entry.

As a result, we need to flush the TLB not just before releasing the lock
for the source location (to avoid any concurrent accesses to the entry),
but also before we release the destination page table lock (to avoid the
TLB being flushed after somebody else has already done something to that
page).

This also makes the whole "need_flush" logic unnecessary, since we now
always end up flushing the TLB for every valid entry.

commit 6ff38bd40230af35e446239396e5fc8ebd6a5248 upstream.

If all pages are deleted from the mapping by memory reclaim and also
moved to the cleancache:

__delete_from_page_cache
  (no shadow case)
  unaccount_page_cache_page
    cleancache_put_page
  page_cache_delete
    mapping-&gt;nrpages -= nr
    (nrpages becomes 0)

We don't clean the cleancache for an inode after final file truncation
(removal).

truncate_inode_pages_final
  check (nrpages || nrexceptional) is false
    no truncate_inode_pages
      no cleancache_invalidate_inode(mapping)

These way when reading the new file created with same inode we may get
these trash leftover pages from cleancache and see wrong data instead of
the contents of the new file.

Fix it by always doing truncate_inode_pages which is already ready for
nrpages == 0 &amp;&amp; nrexceptional == 0 case and just invalidates inode.

<title>mm: madvise(MADV_DODUMP): allow hugetlbfs pages</title>

<content type='text'>
commit d41aa5252394c065d1f04d1ceea885b70d00c9c6 upstream.

Reproducer, assuming 2M of hugetlbfs available:

Hugetlbfs mounted, size=2M and option user=testuser

  # mount | grep ^hugetlbfs
  hugetlbfs on /dev/hugepages type hugetlbfs (rw,pagesize=2M,user=dan)
  # sysctl vm.nr_hugepages=1
  vm.nr_hugepages = 1
  # grep Huge /proc/meminfo
  AnonHugePages:         0 kB
  ShmemHugePages:        0 kB
  HugePages_Total:       1
  HugePages_Free:        1
  HugePages_Rsvd:        0
  HugePages_Surp:        0
  Hugepagesize:       2048 kB
  Hugetlb:            2048 kB

Code:

  #include &lt;sys/mman.h&gt;
  #include &lt;stddef.h&gt;
  #define SIZE 2*1024*1024
  int main()
  {
    void *ptr;
    ptr = mmap(NULL, SIZE, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_HUGETLB | MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0);
    madvise(ptr, SIZE, MADV_DONTDUMP);
    madvise(ptr, SIZE, MADV_DODUMP);
  }

Compile and strace:

  mmap(NULL, 2097152, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS|MAP_HUGETLB, -1, 0) = 0x7ff7c9200000
  madvise(0x7ff7c9200000, 2097152, MADV_DONTDUMP) = 0
  madvise(0x7ff7c9200000, 2097152, MADV_DODUMP) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument)

hugetlbfs pages have VM_DONTEXPAND in the VmFlags driver pages based on
author testing with analysis from Florian Weimer[1].

The inclusion of VM_DONTEXPAND into the VM_SPECIAL defination was a
consequence of the large useage of VM_DONTEXPAND in device drivers.

A consequence of [2] is that VM_DONTEXPAND marked pages are unable to be
marked DODUMP.

A user could quite legitimately madvise(MADV_DONTDUMP) their hugetlbfs
memory for a while and later request that madvise(MADV_DODUMP) on the same
memory.  We correct this omission by allowing madvice(MADV_DODUMP) on
hugetlbfs pages.

commit 58bc4c34d249bf1bc50730a9a209139347cfacfe upstream.

5dd0b16cdaff ("mm/vmstat: Make NR_TLB_REMOTE_FLUSH_RECEIVED available even
on UP") made the availability of the NR_TLB_REMOTE_FLUSH* counters inside
the kernel unconditional to reduce #ifdef soup, but (either to avoid
showing dummy zero counters to userspace, or because that code was missed)
didn't update the vmstat_array, meaning that all following counters would
be shown with incorrect values.

This only affects kernel builds with
CONFIG_VM_EVENT_COUNTERS=y &amp;&amp; CONFIG_DEBUG_TLBFLUSH=y &amp;&amp; CONFIG_SMP=n.

commit b45d71fb89ab8adfe727b9d0ee188ed58582a647 upstream.

Directories and inodes don't necessarily need to be in the same lockdep
class.  For ex, hugetlbfs splits them out too to prevent false positives
in lockdep.  Annotate correctly after new inode creation.  If its a
directory inode, it will be put into a different class.

This should fix a lockdep splat reported by syzbot:

commit b45d71fb89ab8adfe727b9d0ee188ed58582a647 upstream.

Directories and inodes don't necessarily need to be in the same lockdep
class.  For ex, hugetlbfs splits them out too to prevent false positives
in lockdep.  Annotate correctly after new inode creation.  If its a
directory inode, it will be put into a different class.

This should fix a lockdep splat reported by syzbot:

<title>mm/tlb: Remove tlb_remove_table() non-concurrent condition</title>

commit a6f572084fbee8b30f91465f4a085d7a90901c57 upstream.

Will noted that only checking mm_users is incorrect; we should also
check mm_count in order to cover CPUs that have a lazy reference to
this mm (and could do speculative TLB operations).

If removing this turns out to be a performance issue, we can
re-instate a more complete check, but in tlb_table_flush() eliding the
call_rcu_sched().

Fixes: 267239116987 ("mm, powerpc: move the RCU page-table freeing into generic code")

<title>mm: move tlb_table_flush to tlb_flush_mmu_free</title>

commit db7ddef301128dad394f1c0f77027f86ee9a4edb upstream.

There is no need to call this from tlb_flush_mmu_tlbonly, it logically
belongs with tlb_flush_mmu_free.  This makes future fixes simpler.

[ This was originally done to allow code consolidation for the
  mmu_notifier fix, but it also ends up helping simplify the
  HAVE_RCU_TABLE_INVALIDATE fix.    - Linus ]
