Pull hmm updates from Jason Gunthorpe:
 "This is another round of bug fixing and cleanup. This time the focus
  is on the driver pattern to use mmu notifiers to monitor a VA range.
  This code is lifted out of many drivers and hmm_mirror directly into
  the mmu_notifier core and written using the best ideas from all the
  driver implementations.

  This removes many bugs from the drivers and has a very pleasing
  diffstat. More drivers can still be converted, but that is for another
  cycle.

   - A shared branch with RDMA reworking the RDMA ODP implementation

   - New mmu_interval_notifier API. This is focused on the use case of
     monitoring a VA and simplifies the process for drivers

   - A common seq-count locking scheme built into the
     mmu_interval_notifier API usable by drivers that call
     get_user_pages() or hmm_range_fault() with the VA range

   - Conversion of mlx5 ODP, hfi1, radeon, nouveau, AMD GPU, and Xen
     GntDev drivers to the new API. This deletes a lot of wonky driver
     code.

   - Two improvements for hmm_range_fault(), from testing done by Ralph"

mm/mmu_notifier: add an interval tree notifier

2019-11-23T23:56:44+00:00

Of the 13 users of mmu_notifiers, 8 of them use only
invalidate_range_start/end() and immediately intersect the
mmu_notifier_range with some kind of internal list of VAs.  4 use an
interval tree (i915_gem, radeon_mn, umem_odp, hfi1). 4 use a linked list
of some kind (scif_dma, vhost, gntdev, hmm)

And the remaining 5 either don't use invalidate_range_start() or do some
special thing with it.

It turns out that building a correct scheme with an interval tree is
pretty complicated, particularly if the use case is synchronizing against
another thread doing get_user_pages().  Many of these implementations have
various subtle and difficult to fix races.

This approach puts the interval tree as common code at the top of the mmu
notifier call tree and implements a shareable locking scheme.

It includes:
 - An interval tree tracking VA ranges, with per-range callbacks
 - A read/write locking scheme for the interval tree that avoids
   sleeping in the notifier path (for OOM killer)
 - A sequence counter based collision-retry locking scheme to tell
   device page fault that a VA range is being concurrently invalidated.

This is based on various ideas:
- hmm accumulates invalidated VA ranges and releases them when all
  invalidates are done, via active_invalidate_ranges count.
  This approach avoids having to intersect the interval tree twice (as
  umem_odp does) at the potential cost of a longer device page fault.

- kvm/umem_odp use a sequence counter to drive the collision retry,
  via invalidate_seq

- a deferred work todo list on unlock scheme like RTNL, via deferred_list.
  This makes adding/removing interval tree members more deterministic

- seqlock, except this version makes the seqlock idea multi-holder on the
  write side by protecting it with active_invalidate_ranges and a spinlock

To minimize MM overhead when only the interval tree is being used, the
entire SRCU and hlist overheads are dropped using some simple
branches. Similarly the interval tree overhead is dropped when in hlist
mode.

The overhead from the mandatory spinlock is broadly the same as most of
existing users which already had a lock (or two) of some sort on the
invalidation path.

mm: Add write-protect and clean utilities for address space ranges

2019-11-06T12:03:36+00:00

Add two utilities to 1) write-protect and 2) clean all ptes pointing into
a range of an address space.
The utilities are intended to aid in tracking dirty pages (either
driver-allocated system memory or pci device memory).
The write-protect utility should be used in conjunction with
page_mkwrite() and pfn_mkwrite() to trigger write page-faults on page
accesses. Typically one would want to use this on sparse accesses into
large memory regions. The clean utility should be used to utilize
hardware dirtying functionality and avoid the overhead of page-faults,
typically on large accesses into small memory regions.

mm,thp: add read-only THP support for (non-shmem) FS

2019-09-24T22:54:11+00:00

This patch is (hopefully) the first step to enable THP for non-shmem
filesystems.

This patch enables an application to put part of its text sections to THP
via madvise, for example:

    madvise((void *)0x600000, 0x200000, MADV_HUGEPAGE);

We tried to reuse the logic for THP on tmpfs.

Currently, write is not supported for non-shmem THP.  khugepaged will only
process vma with VM_DENYWRITE.  sys_mmap() ignores VM_DENYWRITE requests
(see ksys_mmap_pgoff).  The only way to create vma with VM_DENYWRITE is
execve().  This requirement limits non-shmem THP to text sections.

The next patch will handle writes, which would only happen when the all
the vmas with VM_DENYWRITE are unmapped.

An EXPERIMENTAL config, READ_ONLY_THP_FOR_FS, is added to gate this
feature.

mm: remove quicklist page table caches

2019-09-24T22:54:09+00:00

Patch series "mm: remove quicklist page table caches".

A while ago Nicholas proposed to remove quicklist page table caches [1].

I've rebased his patch on the curren upstream and switched ia64 and sh to
use generic versions of PTE allocation.

[1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20190711030339.20892-1-npiggin@gmail.com

This patch (of 3):

Remove page table allocator "quicklists".  These have been around for a
long time, but have not got much traction in the last decade and are only
used on ia64 and sh architectures.

The numbers in the initial commit look interesting but probably don't
apply anymore.  If anybody wants to resurrect this it's in the git
history, but it's unhelpful to have this code and divergent allocator
behaviour for minor archs.

Also it might be better to instead make more general improvements to page
allocator if this is still so slow.
