mm/hugetlb: fix races when looking up a CONT-PTE/PMD size hugetlb page

2022-10-12T02:05:44+00:00

On some architectures (like ARM64), it can support CONT-PTE/PMD size
hugetlb, which means it can support not only PMD/PUD size hugetlb (2M and
1G), but also CONT-PTE/PMD size(64K and 32M) if a 4K page size specified.

So when looking up a CONT-PTE size hugetlb page by follow_page(), it will
use pte_offset_map_lock() to get the pte entry lock for the CONT-PTE size
hugetlb in follow_page_pte().  However this pte entry lock is incorrect
for the CONT-PTE size hugetlb, since we should use huge_pte_lock() to get
the correct lock, which is mm->page_table_lock.

That means the pte entry of the CONT-PTE size hugetlb under current pte
lock is unstable in follow_page_pte(), we can continue to migrate or
poison the pte entry of the CONT-PTE size hugetlb, which can cause some
potential race issues, even though they are under the 'pte lock'.

For example, suppose thread A is trying to look up a CONT-PTE size hugetlb
page by move_pages() syscall under the lock, however antoher thread B can
migrate the CONT-PTE hugetlb page at the same time, which will cause
thread A to get an incorrect page, if thread A also wants to do page
migration, then data inconsistency error occurs.

Moreover we have the same issue for CONT-PMD size hugetlb in
follow_huge_pmd().

To fix above issues, rename the follow_huge_pmd() as follow_huge_pmd_pte()
to handle PMD and PTE level size hugetlb, which uses huge_pte_lock() to
get the correct pte entry lock to make the pte entry stable.

Mike said:

Support for CONT_PMD/_PTE was added with bb9dd3df8ee9 ("arm64: hugetlb:
refactor find_num_contig()").  Patch series "Support for contiguous pte
hugepages", v4.  However, I do not believe these code paths were
executed until migration support was added with 5480280d3f2d ("arm64/mm:
enable HugeTLB migration for contiguous bit HugeTLB pages") I would go
with 5480280d3f2d for the Fixes: targe.

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.

- memcg cleanups from Kairui Song.

- memcg fixes and cleanups from Johannes Weiner.

- Vishal Moola provides more folio conversions

- Zhang Yi removed ll_rw_block() :(

- migration enhancements from Peter Xu

- migration error-path bugfixes from Huang Ying

- Aneesh Kumar added ability for a device driver to alter the memory
tiering promotion paths. For optimizations by PMEM drivers, DRM
drivers, etc.

- vma merging improvements from Jakub Matěn.

- NUMA hinting cleanups from David Hildenbrand.

- xu xin added aditional userspace visibility into KSM merging
activity.

- THP & KSM code consolidation from Qi Zheng.

- more folio work from Matthew Wilcox.

- KASAN updates from Andrey Konovalov.

- DAMON cleanups from Kaixu Xia.

hugetlb: add vma based lock for pmd sharing

2022-10-03T21:03:17+00:00

Allocate a new hugetlb_vma_lock structure and hang off vm_private_data for
synchronization use by vmas that could be involved in pmd sharing.  This
data structure contains a rw semaphore that is the primary tool used for
synchronization.

This new structure is ref counted, so that it can exist when NOT attached
to a vma.  This is only helpful in resolving lock ordering issues where
code may need to obtain the vma_lock while there are no guarantees the vma
may go away.  By obtaining a ref on the structure, it can be guaranteed
that at least the rw semaphore will not go away.

Only add infrastructure for the new lock here.  Actual use will be added
in subsequent patches.

hugetlb: rename remove_huge_page to hugetlb_delete_from_page_cache

2022-10-03T21:03:16+00:00

remove_huge_page removes a hugetlb page from the page cache.  Change to
hugetlb_delete_from_page_cache as it is a more descriptive name. 
huge_add_to_page_cache is global in scope, but only deals with hugetlb
pages.  For consistency and clarity, rename to hugetlb_add_to_page_cache.

mm: hugetlb: eliminate memory-less nodes handling

2022-10-03T21:03:15+00:00

The memory-notify-based approach aims to handle meory-less nodes, however,
it just adds the complexity of code as pointed by David in thread [1]. 
The handling of memory-less nodes is introduced by commit 4faf8d950ec4
("hugetlb: handle memory hot-plug events").  >From its commit message, we
cannot find any necessity of handling this case.  So, we can simply
register/unregister sysfs entries in register_node/unregister_node to
simlify the code.

BTW, hotplug callback added because in hugetlb_register_all_nodes() we
register sysfs nodes only for N_MEMORY nodes, seeing commit 9b5e5d0fdc91,
which said it was a preparation for handling memory-less nodes via memory
hotplug.  Since we want to remove memory hotplug, so make sure we only
register per-node sysfs for online (N_ONLINE) nodes in
hugetlb_register_all_nodes().

powerpc: Rely on generic definition of hugepd_t and is_hugepd when unused

2022-09-26T10:58:18+00:00

CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_HUGEPD is used to tell core mm when huge page
directories are used.

When they are not used, no need to provide hugepd_t or is_hugepd(),
just rely on the core mm fallback definition.

For that, change core mm behaviour so that CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_HUGEPD
is used instead of indirect is_hugepd macro existence.

powerpc being the only user of huge page directories, there is no
impact on other architectures.

mm, hwpoison, hugetlb: support saving mechanism of raw error pages

2022-08-09T01:06:44+00:00

When handling memory error on a hugetlb page, the error handler tries to
dissolve and turn it into 4kB pages.  If it's successfully dissolved,
PageHWPoison flag is moved to the raw error page, so that's all right. 
However, dissolve sometimes fails, then the error page is left as
hwpoisoned hugepage.  It's useful if we can retry to dissolve it to save
healthy pages, but that's not possible now because the information about
where the raw error pages is lost.

Use the private field of a few tail pages to keep that information.  The
code path of shrinking hugepage pool uses this info to try delayed
dissolve.  In order to remember multiple errors in a hugepage, a
singly-linked list originated from SUBPAGE_INDEX_HWPOISON-th tail page is
constructed.  Only simple operations (adding an entry or clearing all) are
required and the list is assumed not to be very long, so this simple data
structure should be enough.

If we failed to save raw error info, the hwpoison hugepage has errors on
unknown subpage, then this new saving mechanism does not work any more, so
disable saving new raw error info and freeing hwpoison hugepages.

mm: hugetlb_vmemmap: improve hugetlb_vmemmap code readability

2022-08-09T01:06:43+00:00

There is a discussion about the name of hugetlb_vmemmap_alloc/free in
thread [1].  The suggestion suggested by David is rename "alloc/free" to
"optimize/restore" to make functionalities clearer to users, "optimize"
means the function will optimize vmemmap pages, while "restore" means
restoring its vmemmap pages discared before.  This commit does this.

Another discussion is the confusion RESERVE_VMEMMAP_NR isn't used
explicitly for vmemmap_addr but implicitly for vmemmap_end in
hugetlb_vmemmap_alloc/free.  David suggested we can compute what
hugetlb_vmemmap_init() does now at runtime.  We do not need to worry for
the overhead of computing at runtime since the calculation is simple
enough and those functions are not in a hot path.  This commit has the
following improvements:

  1) The function suffixed name ("optimize/restore") is more expressive.
  2) The logic becomes less weird in hugetlb_vmemmap_optimize/restore().
  3) The hugetlb_vmemmap_init() does not need to be exported anymore.
  4) A ->optimize_vmemmap_pages field in struct hstate is killed.
  5) There is only one place where checks is_power_of_2(sizeof(struct
     page)) instead of two places.
  6) Add more comments for hugetlb_vmemmap_optimize/restore().
  7) For external users, hugetlb_optimize_vmemmap_pages() is used for
     detecting if the HugeTLB's vmemmap pages is optimizable originally.
     In this commit, it is killed and we introduce a new helper
     hugetlb_vmemmap_optimizable() to replace it.  The name is more
     expressive.
