Patch series "userfaultfd: working set tracking for VM guest memory", v10.
This series adds userfaultfd support for tracking the working set of VM
guest memory, so a VMM can identify hot pages and reclaim cold ones to
tiered or remote storage.
This patch (of 15):
pte_protnone() and pmd_protnone() detect present-but-inaccessible page
table entries. This capability is useful beyond NUMA balancing -- for
example, userfaultfd working set tracking uses protnone PTEs to track page
access without unmapping pages.
Introduce CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_PTE_PROTNONE to decouple the protnone PTE
infrastructure from CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING. The six architectures that
support protnone PTEs (x86_64, arm64, powerpc, s390, riscv, loongarch) now
select this option, and CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING depends on it.
No functional change -- the same set of architectures continues to have
working protnone support, but the infrastructure is now available
independently of NUMA balancing.

CONFIG_ARCH_ENABLE_THP_MIGRATION gates PMD-level migration entries.
PMD-level device-private entries use the same migration mechanism and
therefore require the same architecture support.
Upcoming PMD-level swap entries can use the same PMD softleaf helpers
without depending on page migration, so rename the architecture gate to
CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_PMD_SOFTLEAVES. This describes the PMD entry capability
rather than one current user of it.
This is a pure rename: the set of selecting architectures (x86, arm64,
s390, riscv, loongarch, and powerpc on PPC_BOOK3S_64) and the gating
semantics are unchanged.
No functional change intended.

Let's clean it up a bit:
(1) There is no need to pass "full" anymore.
(2) No architecture overwrites it, and there isn't really a good reason
to do so when dealing with non-present PTEs.
(3) While at it, call it "non-present", similar to copy_nonpresent_pte()
and zap_nonpresent_ptes().
It's a shame that we have clear_non_present_ptes() correspond to
pte_clear() and clear_ptes() correspond to ptep_get_and_clear*().

In general, there is no good reason to do anything special when clearing
non-present PTEs.
In theory, HW that does have to invalidate TLBs for non-present PTEs could
benefit from a "full" parameter, but fortunately
pte_clear_not_present_full() is not wired up anymore ... and there would
have to be something very convincing for us to care about that to re-add
it.
So, let's just use pte_clear() directly now. To prevent the compiler
complaining on some configs about "set but not used" addr parameter,
silence that here.

While the GCC and Clang compilers already define __ASSEMBLER__
automatically when compiling assembly code, __ASSEMBLY__ is a macro that
only gets defined by the Makefiles in the kernel. This can be very
confusing when switching between userspace and kernelspace coding, or when
dealing with uapi headers that rather should use __ASSEMBLER__ instead.
So let's standardize now on the __ASSEMBLER__ macro that is provided by
the compilers.
This is a completely mechanical patch (done with a simple "sed -i"
statement).

Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
"It feels like the new world of AI tooling has slowed us down a little
on the feature side when compared to the fixes side. The extra rounds
of Sashiko review have also pushed a few things out until next time.
Still, there's some good foundational stuff here for the fpsimd code
and hardening work towards removing the predictable linear alias of
the kernel image.
CPU errata handling:
- Extend CnP disabling workaround to HiSilicon HIP09 hardware.
- Work around eternally broken broadcast TLB invalidation on more
CPUs.
- Documentation and code cleanups.
CPU features:
- Add new hwcaps for the 2025 dpISA extensions.
Floating point / SVE / SME:
- Significant cleanup to the low-level state management code in the
core architecture code and KVM.
- Use correct register widths during SVE/SME save/restore assembly.
- Expose SVE/SME save/restore memory accesses to sanitisers.
Memory management:
- Preparatory work for unmapping the kernel data and bss sections
from the linear map.
Miscellaneous:
- Inline DAIF manipulation helpers so they can be used safely from
non-instrumentable code.
- Fix handling of the 'nosmp' cmdline option to avoid marking
secondary cores as "possible".
MPAM:
- Add support for v0.1 of the MPAM architecture.
Perf:

apply_range_set_cb() maps the pages for a new arena allocation and returned
-EBUSY when the target PTE was already populated. Kernel-fault recovery
leaves the per-arena scratch page in unallocated arena PTEs, so a later
bpf_arena_alloc_pages() over such a page hits that -EBUSY, and every
subsequent allocation of it fails the same way. Allocation must install the
real page over scratch instead.
Overwriting the scratch PTE in place is a valid->valid change, which arm64
forbids without break-before-make. Route through an invalid entry instead:
ptep_try_set() fills only a none slot, so the PTE goes scratch->none->page.
On finding scratch, clear it and flush_tlb_before_set() before retrying. The
new flush_tlb_before_set() is a no-op except on arches like arm64 that need
the break-before-make TLB invalidate. The loop also copes with a concurrent
fault re-scratching the slot.
Arches without ptep_try_set() never install the scratch page, so keep the
must-be-empty check and set_pte_at() for them.

The empty zero page is used to back any kernel or user space mapping
that is supposed to remain cleared, and so the page itself is never
supposed to be modified.
So mark it as const, which moves it into .rodata rather than .bss: on
most architectures, this ensures that both the kernel's mapping of it
and any aliases that are accessible via the kernel direct (linear) map
are mapped read-only, and cannot be used (inadvertently or maliciously)
to corrupt the contents of the zero page.

Add ptep_try_set(ptep, new_pte): atomically set *ptep to new_pte iff it is
currently pte_none(). Returns true on success, false if the slot was already
populated or the arch has no implementation.
The intended caller is the upcoming bpf_arena kernel-side fault recovery
path. The install runs from a page fault that can be nested under locks
held by the faulting kernel caller (e.g. a BPF program holding
raw_res_spin_lock_irqsave on its arena's spinlock), so trylock-and-retry
would A-A deadlock. Lock-free cmpxchg is the only viable option, which
constrains this helper to special kernel page tables where concurrent
writers cooperate via atomic accessors.
The generic version in <linux/pgtable.h> returns false. x86 and arm64
override with try_cmpxchg-based implementations on the underlying pteval.
Other architectures get the false stub - the callers there already fall
through to oops.
v2: Rename to ptep_try_set(). Tighten kerneldoc. (David, Alexei)
v3: Note that strict-zero cmpxchg is narrower than pte_none(). (Andrea)

Currently, MGLRU will call ptep_test_and_clear_young_notify() to check and
clear the young flag for each PTE sequentially, which is inefficient for
large folios reclamation.
Moreover, on Arm64 architecture, which supports contiguous PTEs, the
Arm64- specific ptep_test_and_clear_young() already implements an
optimization to clear the young flags for PTEs within a contiguous range.
However, this is not sufficient. Similar to the Arm64 specific
clear_flush_young_ptes(), we can extend this to perform batched operations
for the entire large folio (which might exceed the contiguous range:
CONT_PTE_SIZE).
Thus, we can introduce a new batched helper: test_and_clear_young_ptes()
and its wrapper test_and_clear_young_ptes_notify() which are consistent
with the existing functions, to perform batched checking of the young
flags for large folios, which can help improve performance during large
folio reclamation when MGLRU is enabled. And it will be overridden by the
architecture that implements a more efficient batch operation in the
following patches.

Replace READ_ONCE() with the existing standard page table accessor for PUD
aka pudp_get() in pud_trans_unstable(). This does not create any
functional change for platforms that do not override pudp_get(), which
still defaults to READ_ONCE().

For most architectures every invocation of ZERO_PAGE() does
virt_to_page(empty_zero_page). But empty_zero_page is in BSS and it is
enough to get its struct page once at initialization time and then use it
whenever a zero page should be accessed.
Add yet another __zero_page variable that will be initialized as
virt_to_page(empty_zero_page) for most architectures in a weak
arch_setup_zero_pages() function.
For architectures that use colored zero pages (MIPS and s390) rename their
setup_zero_pages() to arch_setup_zero_pages() and make it global rather
than static.
For architectures that cannot use virt_to_page() for BSS (arm64 and
sparc64) add override of arch_setup_zero_pages().

Reduce 22 declarations of empty_zero_page to 3 and 23 declarations of
ZERO_PAGE() to 4.
Every architecture defines empty_zero_page that way or another, but for the
most of them it is always a page aligned page in BSS and most definitions
of ZERO_PAGE do virt_to_page(empty_zero_page).
Move Linus vetted x86 definition of empty_zero_page and ZERO_PAGE() to the
core MM and drop these definitions in architectures that do not implement
colored zero page (MIPS and s390).
ZERO_PAGE() remains a macro because turning it to a wrapper for a static
inline causes severe pain in header dependencies.
For the most part the change is mechanical, with these being noteworthy:
* alpha: aliased empty_zero_page with ZERO_PGE that was also used for boot
parameters. Switching to a generic empty_zero_page removes the aliasing
and keeps ZERO_PGE for boot parameters only
* arm64: uses __pa_symbol() in ZERO_PAGE() so that definition of
ZERO_PAGE() is kept intact.
* m68k/parisc/um: allocated empty_zero_page from memblock,
although they do not support zero page coloring and having it in BSS
will work fine.
* sparc64 can have empty_zero_page in BSS rather allocate it, but it
can't use virt_to_page() for BSS. Keep it's definition of ZERO_PAGE()
but instead of allocating it, make mem_map_zero point to
empty_zero_page.
* sh: used empty_zero_page for boot parameters at the very early boot.
Rename the parameters page to boot_params_page and let sh use the generic
empty_zero_page.
* hexagon: had an amusing comment about empty_zero_page
/* A handy thing to have if one has the RAM. Declared in head.S */
that unfortunately had to go :)

While on it, move extern declarations of zero_page_pfn outside the

Patch series "arch, mm: consolidate empty_zero_page", v3.
These patches cleanup handling of ZERO_PAGE() and zero_pfn.
This patch (of 4):
nommu architectures have empty_zero_page and define ZERO_PAGE() and
although they don't really use it to populate page tables, there is no
reason to hardwire !MMU implementation of is_zero_pfn() and my_zero_pfn()
to 0.
Drop #ifdef CONFIG_MMU around implementations of is_zero_pfn() and
my_zero_pfn() and remove !MMU version.
While on it, make zero_pfn __ro_after_init.

Patch series "support batch checking of references and unmapping for large
folios", v6.
Currently, folio_referenced_one() always checks the young flag for each
PTE sequentially, which is inefficient for large folios. This
inefficiency is especially noticeable when reclaiming clean file-backed
large folios, where folio_referenced() is observed as a significant
performance hotspot.
Moreover, on Arm architecture, which supports contiguous PTEs, there is
already an optimization to clear the young flags for PTEs within a
contiguous range. However, this is not sufficient. We can extend this to
perform batched operations for the entire large folio (which might exceed
the contiguous range: CONT_PTE_SIZE).
Similar to folio_referenced_one(), we can also apply batched unmapping for
large file folios to optimize the performance of file folio reclamation.
By supporting batched checking of the young flags, flushing TLB entries,
and unmapping, I can observed a significant performance improvements in my
performance tests for file folios reclamation. Please check the
performance data in the commit message of each patch.
This patch (of 5):
Currently, folio_referenced_one() always checks the young flag for each
PTE sequentially, which is inefficient for large folios. This
inefficiency is especially noticeable when reclaiming clean file-backed
large folios, where folio_referenced() is observed as a significant

Moreover, on Arm64 architecture, which supports contiguous PTEs, there is
already an optimization to clear the young flags for PTEs within a
contiguous range. However, this is not sufficient. We can extend this to
perform batched operations for the entire large folio (which might exceed
the contiguous range: CONT_PTE_SIZE).
Introduce a new API: clear_flush_young_ptes() to facilitate batched
checking of the young flags and flushing TLB entries, thereby improving
performance during large folio reclamation. And it will be overridden by
the architecture that implements a more efficient batch operation in the
following patches.
While we are at it, rename ptep_clear_flush_young_notify() to
clear_flush_young_ptes_notify() to indicate that this is a batch
operation.

Patch series " Remove XA_ZERO from error recovery of dup_mmap()", v3.
It is possible that the dup_mmap() call fails on allocating or setting up
a vma after the maple tree of the oldmm is copied. Today, that failure
point is marked by inserting an XA_ZERO entry over the failure point so
that the exact location does not need to be communicated through to
exit_mmap().
However, a race exists in the tear down process because the dup_mmap()
drops the mmap lock before exit_mmap() can remove the partially set up vma
tree. This means that other tasks may get to the mm tree and find the
invalid vma pointer (since it's an XA_ZERO entry), even though the mm is
marked as MMF_OOM_SKIP and MMF_UNSTABLE.
To remove the race fully, the tree must be cleaned up before dropping the
lock. This is accomplished by extracting the vma cleanup in exit_mmap()
and changing the required functions to pass through the vma search limit.
Any other tree modifications would require extra cycles which should be
spent on freeing memory.
This does run the risk of increasing the possibility of finding no vmas
(which is already possible!) in code that isn't careful.
The final four patches are to address the excessive argument lists being
passed between the functions. Using the struct unmap_desc also allows
some special-case code to be removed in favour of the struct setup
differences.
This patch (of 11):
pgtables.h defines a fallback for ceiling and floor of the page tables
within the CONFIG_MMU section. Moving the definitions to outside the
CONFIG_MMU allows for using them in generic code.

To provide support for powerpc platforms, provide an addr parameter to the
__page_table_check_ptes_set() and page_table_check_ptes_set() routines.
This parameter is needed on some powerpc platforms which do not encode
whether a mapping is for user or kernel in the pte. On such platforms,
this can be inferred from the addr parameter.

Despite recent efforts to prevent lazy_mmu sections from nesting, it
remains difficult to ensure that it never occurs - and in fact it does
occur on arm64 in certain situations (CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC). Commit
1ef3095b1405 ("arm64/mm: Permit lazy_mmu_mode to be nested") made nesting
tolerable on arm64, but without truly supporting it: the inner call to
leave() disables the batching optimisation before the outer section ends.
This patch actually enables lazy_mmu sections to nest by tracking the
nesting level in task_struct, in a similar fashion to e.g.
pagefault_{enable,disable}(). This is fully handled by the generic
lazy_mmu helpers that were recently introduced.
lazy_mmu sections were not initially intended to nest, so we need to
clarify the semantics w.r.t. the arch_*_lazy_mmu_mode() callbacks. This
patch takes the following approach:
* The outermost calls to lazy_mmu_mode_{enable,disable}() trigger
calls to arch_{enter,leave}_lazy_mmu_mode() - this is unchanged.
* Nested calls to lazy_mmu_mode_{enable,disable}() are not forwarded
to the arch via arch_{enter,leave} - lazy MMU remains enabled so
the assumption is that these callbacks are not relevant. However,
existing code may rely on a call to disable() to flush any batched
state, regardless of nesting. arch_flush_lazy_mmu_mode() is
therefore called in that situation.
A separate interface was recently introduced to temporarily pause the lazy
MMU mode: lazy_mmu_mode_{pause,resume}(). pause() fully exits the mode
*regardless of the nesting level*, and resume() restores the mode at the
same nesting level.
pause()/resume() are themselves allowed to nest, so we actually store two
nesting levels in task_struct: enable_count and pause_count. A new helper
is_lazy_mmu_mode_active() is introduced to determine whether we are
currently in lazy MMU mode; this will be used in subsequent patches to
replace the various ways arch's currently track whether the mode is
enabled.
In summary (enable/pause represent the values *after* the call):
lazy_mmu_mode_enable() -> arch_enter() enable=1 pause=0
lazy_mmu_mode_enable() -> ø enable=2 pause=0
lazy_mmu_mode_pause() -> arch_leave() enable=2 pause=1
lazy_mmu_mode_resume() -> arch_enter() enable=2 pause=0
lazy_mmu_mode_disable() -> arch_flush() enable=1 pause=0
lazy_mmu_mode_disable() -> arch_leave() enable=0 pause=0
Note: is_lazy_mmu_mode_active() is added to <linux/sched.h> to allow
arch headers included by <linux/pgtable.h> to use it.

The lazy MMU mode cannot be used in interrupt context. This is documented
in <linux/pgtable.h>, but isn't consistently handled across architectures.
arm64 ensures that calls to lazy_mmu_mode_* have no effect in interrupt
context, because such calls do occur in certain configurations - see
commit b81c688426a9 ("arm64/mm: Disable barrier batching in interrupt
contexts"). Other architectures do not check this situation, most likely
because it hasn't occurred so far.
Let's handle this in the new generic lazy_mmu layer, in the same fashion
as arm64: bail out of lazy_mmu_mode_* if in_interrupt(). Also remove the
arm64 handling that is now redundant.
Both arm64 and x86/Xen also ensure that any lazy MMU optimisation is
disabled while in interrupt (see queue_pte_barriers() and
xen_get_lazy_mode() respectively). This will be handled in the generic
layer in a subsequent patch.

The implementation of the lazy MMU mode is currently entirely
arch-specific; core code directly calls arch helpers:
arch_{enter,leave}_lazy_mmu_mode().
We are about to introduce support for nested lazy MMU sections. As things
stand we'd have to duplicate that logic in every arch implementing
lazy_mmu - adding to a fair amount of logic already duplicated across
lazy_mmu implementations.
This patch therefore introduces a new generic layer that calls the
existing arch_* helpers. Two pair of calls are introduced:
* lazy_mmu_mode_enable() ... lazy_mmu_mode_disable()
This is the standard case where the mode is enabled for a given
block of code by surrounding it with enable() and disable()
calls.
* lazy_mmu_mode_pause() ... lazy_mmu_mode_resume()
This is for situations where the mode is temporarily disabled
by first calling pause() and then resume() (e.g. to prevent any
batching from occurring in a critical section).
The documentation in <linux/pgtable.h> will be updated in a subsequent
patch.
No functional change should be introduced at this stage. The
implementation of enable()/resume() and disable()/pause() is currently
identical, but nesting support will change that.
Most of the call sites have been updated using the following Coccinelle
script:
@@
@@
{
...
- arch_enter_lazy_mmu_mode();
+ lazy_mmu_mode_enable();
...
- arch_leave_lazy_mmu_mode();
+ lazy_mmu_mode_disable();
...
}
@@
@@
{
...
- arch_leave_lazy_mmu_mode();
+ lazy_mmu_mode_pause();
...
- arch_enter_lazy_mmu_mode();
+ lazy_mmu_mode_resume();
...
}
A couple of notes regarding x86:
* Xen is currently the only case where explicit handling is required
for lazy MMU when context-switching. This is purely an
implementation detail and using the generic lazy_mmu_mode_*
functions would cause trouble when nesting support is introduced,
because the generic functions must be called from the current task.
For that reason we still use arch_leave() and arch_enter() there.
* x86 calls arch_flush_lazy_mmu_mode() unconditionally in a few
places, but only defines it if PARAVIRT_XXL is selected, and we
are removing the fallback in <linux/pgtable.h>. Add a new fallback
definition to <asm/pgtable.h> to keep things building.

Architectures currently opt in for implementing lazy_mmu helpers by
defining __HAVE_ARCH_ENTER_LAZY_MMU_MODE.
In preparation for introducing a generic lazy_mmu layer that will require
storage in task_struct, let's switch to a cleaner approach: instead of
defining a macro, select a CONFIG option.
This patch introduces CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_LAZY_MMU_MODE and has each arch
select it when it implements lazy_mmu helpers.
__HAVE_ARCH_ENTER_LAZY_MMU_MODE is removed and <linux/pgtable.h> relies on
the new CONFIG instead.
On x86, lazy_mmu helpers are only implemented if PARAVIRT_XXL is selected.
This creates some complications in arch/x86/boot/, because a few files
manually undefine PARAVIRT* options. As a result <asm/paravirt.h> does
not define the lazy_mmu helpers, but this breaks the build as
<linux/pgtable.h> only defines them if !CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_LAZY_MMU_MODE.
There does not seem to be a clean way out of this - let's just undefine
that new CONFIG too.

The lazy MMU mode documentation makes clear that an implementation should
not assume that preemption is disabled or any lock is held upon entry to
the mode; however it says nothing about what code using the lazy MMU
interface should expect.
In practice sleeping is forbidden (for generic code) while the lazy MMU
mode is active: say it explicitly.

Patch series "mm: Add soft-dirty and uffd-wp support for RISC-V", v15.
This patchset adds support for Svrsw60t59b [1] extension which is ratified
now, also add soft dirty and userfaultfd write protect tracking for
RISC-V.
The patches 1 and 2 add macros to allow architectures to define their own
checks if the soft-dirty / uffd_wp PTE bits are available, in other words
for RISC-V, the Svrsw60t59b extension is supported on which device the
kernel is running. Also patch1-2 are removing "ifdef
CONFIG_MEM_SOFT_DIRTY" "ifdef CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_USERFAULTFD_WP" and "ifdef
CONFIG_PTE_MARKER_UFFD_WP" in favor of checks which if not overridden by
the architecture, no change in behavior is expected.
This patchset has been tested with kselftest mm suite in which soft-dirty,
madv_populate, test_unmerge_uffd_wp, and uffd-unit-tests run and pass, and
no regressions are observed in any of the other tests.
This patch (of 6):
Some platforms can customize the PTE PMD entry soft-dirty bit making it
unavailable even if the architecture provides the resource.
Add an API which architectures can define their specific implementations
to detect if soft-dirty bit is available on which device the kernel is
running.
This patch is removing "ifdef CONFIG_MEM_SOFT_DIRTY" in favor of
pgtable_supports_soft_dirty() checks that defaults to
IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_MEM_SOFT_DIRTY), if not overridden by the architecture,
no change in behavior is expected.
We make sure to never set VM_SOFTDIRTY if !pgtable_supports_soft_dirty(),
so we will never run into VM_SOFTDIRTY checks.

The page faults may be spurious because of the racy access to the page
table. For example, a non-populated virtual page is accessed on 2
CPUs simultaneously, thus the page faults are triggered on both CPUs.
However, it's possible that one CPU (say CPU A) cannot find the reason
for the page fault if the other CPU (say CPU B) has changed the page
table before the PTE is checked on CPU A. Most of the time, the
spurious page faults can be ignored safely. However, if the page
fault is for the write access, it's possible that a stale read-only
TLB entry exists in the local CPU and needs to be flushed on some
architectures. This is called the spurious page fault fixing.
In the current kernel, there is spurious fault fixing support for pte,
but not for huge pmd because no architectures need it. But in the
next patch in the series, we will change the write protection fault
handling logic on arm64, so that some stale huge pmd entries may
remain in the TLB. These entries need to be flushed via the huge pmd
spurious fault fixing mechanism.

print_bad_pte() looks like something that should actually be a WARN or
similar, but historically it apparently has proven to be useful to detect
corruption of page tables even on production systems -- report the issue
and keep the system running to make it easier to actually detect what is
going wrong (e.g., multiple such messages might shed a light).
As we want to unify vm_normal_page_*() handling for PTE/PMD/PUD, we'll
have to take care of print_bad_pte() as well.
Let's prepare for using print_bad_pte() also for non-PTEs by adjusting the
implementation and renaming the function to print_bad_page_map(). Provide
print_bad_pte() as a simple wrapper.
Document the implicit locking requirements for the page table re-walk.
To make the function a bit more readable, factor out the ratelimit check
into is_bad_page_map_ratelimited() and place the printing of page table
content into __print_bad_page_map_pgtable(). We'll now dump information
from each level in a single line, and just stop the table walk once we hit
something that is not a present page table.
The report will now look something like (dumping pgd to pmd values):
[ 77.943408] BUG: Bad page map in process XXX pte:80000001233f5867
[ 77.944077] addr:00007fd84bb1c000 vm_flags:08100071 anon_vma: ...
[ 77.945186] pgd:10a89f067 p4d:10a89f067 pud:10e5a2067 pmd:105327067
Not using pgdp_get(), because that does not work properly on some arm
configs where pgd_t is an array. Note that we are dumping all levels even
when levels are folded for simplicity.

Introduce and use {pgd,p4d}_populate_kernel() in core MM code when
populating PGD and P4D entries for the kernel address space. These
helpers ensure proper synchronization of page tables when updating the
kernel portion of top-level page tables.
Until now, the kernel has relied on each architecture to handle
synchronization of top-level page tables in an ad-hoc manner. For
example, see commit 9b861528a801 ("x86-64, mem: Update all PGDs for direct
mapping and vmemmap mapping changes").
However, this approach has proven fragile for following reasons:
1) It is easy to forget to perform the necessary page table
synchronization when introducing new changes.
For instance, commit 4917f55b4ef9 ("mm/sparse-vmemmap: improve memory
savings for compound devmaps") overlooked the need to synchronize
page tables for the vmemmap area.
2) It is also easy to overlook that the vmemmap and direct mapping areas
must not be accessed before explicit page table synchronization.
For example, commit 8d400913c231 ("x86/vmemmap: handle unpopulated
sub-pmd ranges")) caused crashes by accessing the vmemmap area
before calling sync_global_pgds().
To address this, as suggested by Dave Hansen, introduce _kernel() variants
of the page table population helpers, which invoke architecture-specific
hooks to properly synchronize page tables. These are introduced in a new
header file, include/linux/pgalloc.h, so they can be called from common
code.
They reuse existing infrastructure for vmalloc and ioremap.
Synchronization requirements are determined by ARCH_PAGE_TABLE_SYNC_MASK,
and the actual synchronization is performed by
arch_sync_kernel_mappings().
This change currently targets only x86_64, so only PGD and P4D level
helpers are introduced. Currently, these helpers are no-ops since no
architecture sets PGTBL_{PGD,P4D}_MODIFIED in ARCH_PAGE_TABLE_SYNC_MASK.
In theory, PUD and PMD level helpers can be added later if needed by other
architectures. For now, 32-bit architectures (x86-32 and arm) only handle
PGTBL_PMD_MODIFIED, so p*d_populate_kernel() will never affect them unless
we introduce a PMD level helper.

During our internal testing, we started observing intermittent boot
failures when the machine uses 4-level paging and has a large amount of
persistent memory:

It turns out that the kernel panics while initializing vmemmap (struct
page array) when the vmemmap region spans two PGD entries, because the new
PGD entry is only installed in init_mm.pgd, but not in the page tables of
other tasks.
And looking at __populate_section_memmap():
if (vmemmap_can_optimize(altmap, pgmap))
// does not sync top level page tables
r = vmemmap_populate_compound_pages(pfn, start, end, nid, pgmap);
else
// sync top level page tables in x86
r = vmemmap_populate(start, end, nid, altmap);
In the normal path, vmemmap_populate() in arch/x86/mm/init_64.c
synchronizes the top level page table (See commit 9b861528a801 ("x86-64,
mem: Update all PGDs for direct mapping and vmemmap mapping changes")) so
that all tasks in the system can see the new vmemmap area.
However, when vmemmap_can_optimize() returns true, the optimized path
skips synchronization of top-level page tables. This is because
vmemmap_populate_compound_pages() is implemented in core MM code, which
does not handle synchronization of the top-level page tables. Instead,
the core MM has historically relied on each architecture to perform this
synchronization manually.
We're not the first party to encounter a crash caused by not-sync'd top
level page tables: earlier this year, Gwan-gyeong Mun attempted to address
the issue [1] [2] after hitting a kernel panic when x86 code accessed the
vmemmap area before the corresponding top-level entries were synced. At
that time, the issue was believed to be triggered only when struct page
was enlarged for debugging purposes, and the patch did not get further
updates.
It turns out that current approach of relying on each arch to handle the
page table sync manually is fragile because 1) it's easy to forget to sync
the top level page table, and 2) it's also easy to overlook that the
kernel should not access the vmemmap and direct mapping areas before the
sync.
# The solution: Make page table sync more code robust and harder to miss
To address this, Dave Hansen suggested [3] [4] introducing
{pgd,p4d}_populate_kernel() for updating kernel portion of the page tables
and allow each architecture to explicitly perform synchronization when
installing top-level entries. With this approach, we no longer need to
worry about missing the sync step, reducing the risk of future
regressions.
The new interface reuses existing ARCH_PAGE_TABLE_SYNC_MASK,
PGTBL_P*D_MODIFIED and arch_sync_kernel_mappings() facility used by
vmalloc and ioremap to synchronize page tables.
pgd_populate_kernel() looks like this:
static inline void pgd_populate_kernel(unsigned long addr, pgd_t *pgd,
p4d_t *p4d)
{
pgd_populate(&init_mm, pgd, p4d);
if (ARCH_PAGE_TABLE_SYNC_MASK & PGTBL_PGD_MODIFIED)
arch_sync_kernel_mappings(addr, addr);
}
It is worth noting that vmalloc() and apply_to_range() carefully
synchronizes page tables by calling p*d_alloc_track() and
arch_sync_kernel_mappings(), and thus they are not affected by this patch
series.
This series was hugely inspired by Dave Hansen's suggestion and hence
added Suggested-by: Dave Hansen.
Cc stable because lack of this series opens the door to intermittent
boot failures.
This patch (of 3):
Move ARCH_PAGE_TABLE_SYNC_MASK and arch_sync_kernel_mappings() to
linux/pgtable.h so that they can be used outside of vmalloc and ioremap.

Patch series "Optimizations for khugepaged", v4.
If the underlying folio mapped by the ptes is large, we can process those
ptes in a batch using folio_pte_batch().
For arm64 specifically, this results in a 16x reduction in the number of
ptep_get() calls, since on a contig block, ptep_get() on arm64 will
iterate through all 16 entries to collect a/d bits. Next, ptep_clear()
will cause a TLBI for every contig block in the range via
contpte_try_unfold(). Instead, use clear_ptes() to only do the TLBI at
the first and last contig block of the range.
For split folios, there will be no pte batching; the batch size returned
by folio_pte_batch() will be 1. For pagetable split folios, the ptes will
still point to the same large folio; for arm64, this results in the
optimization described above, and for other arches, a minor improvement is
expected due to a reduction in the number of function calls and batching
atomic operations.
This patch (of 3):
Let's add variants to be used where "full" does not apply -- which will
be the majority of cases in the future. "full" really only applies if
we are about to tear down a full MM.
Use get_and_clear_ptes() in existing code, clear_ptes() users will
be added next.

Now that DAX and all other reference counts to ZONE_DEVICE pages are
managed normally there is no need for the special devmap PTE/PMD/PUD page
table bits. So drop all references to these, freeing up a software
defined page table bit on architectures supporting it.

DAX was the only thing that created pmd_devmap and pud_devmap entries
however it no longer does as DAX pages are now refcounted normally and
pXd_trans_huge() returns true for those. Therefore checking both
pXd_devmap and pXd_trans_huge() is redundant and the former can be removed
without changing behaviour as it will always be false.

Patch series "use vm_flags_t consistently".
The VMA flags field vma->vm_flags is of type vm_flags_t. Right now this
is exactly equivalent to unsigned long, but it should not be assumed to
be.
Much code that references vma->vm_flags already correctly uses vm_flags_t,
but a fairly large chunk of code simply uses unsigned long and assumes
that the two are equivalent.
This series corrects that and has us use vm_flags_t consistently.
This series is motivated by the desire to, in a future series, adjust
vm_flags_t to be a u64 regardless of whether the kernel is 32-bit or
64-bit in order to deal with the VMA flag exhaustion issue and avoid all
the various problems that arise from it (being unable to use certain
features in 32-bit, being unable to add new flags except for 64-bit, etc.)
This is therefore a critical first step towards that goal. At any rate,
using the correct type is of value regardless.
We additionally take the opportunity to refer to VMA flags as vm_flags
where possible to make clear what we're referring to.
Overall, this series does not introduce any functional change.
This patch (of 3):
We abstract the type of the VMA flags to vm_flags_t, however in may places
it is simply assumed this is unsigned long, which is simply incorrect.
At the moment this is simply an incongruity, however in future we plan to
change this type and therefore this change is a critical requirement for
doing so.
Overall, this patch does not introduce any functional change.

Change the readahead config so that if it is being requested for an
executable mapping, do a synchronous read into a set of folios with an
arch-specified order and in a naturally aligned manner. We no longer
center the read on the faulting page but simply align it down to the
previous natural boundary. Additionally, we don't bother with an
asynchronous part.
On arm64 if memory is physically contiguous and naturally aligned to the
"contpte" size, we can use contpte mappings, which improves utilization of
the TLB. When paired with the "multi-size THP" feature, this works well
to reduce dTLB pressure. However iTLB pressure is still high due to
executable mappings having a low likelihood of being in the required folio
size and mapping alignment, even when the filesystem supports readahead
into large folios (e.g. XFS).
The reason for the low likelihood is that the current readahead algorithm
starts with an order-0 folio and increases the folio order by 2 every time
the readahead mark is hit. But most executable memory tends to be
accessed randomly and so the readahead mark is rarely hit and most
executable folios remain order-0.
So let's special-case the read(ahead) logic for executable mappings. The
trade-off is performance improvement (due to more efficient storage of the
translations in iTLB) vs potential for making reclaim more difficult (due
to the folios being larger so if a part of the folio is hot the whole
thing is considered hot). But executable memory is a small portion of the
overall system memory so I doubt this will even register from a reclaim
perspective.
I've chosen 64K folio size for arm64 which benefits both the 4K and 16K
base page size configs. Crucially the same amount of data is still read
(usually 128K) so I'm not expecting any read amplification issues. I
don't anticipate any write amplification because text is always RO.
Note that the text region of an ELF file could be populated into the page
cache for other reasons than taking a fault in a mmapped area. The most
common case is due to the loader read()ing the header which can be shared
with the beginning of text. So some text will still remain in small
folios, but this simple, best effort change provides good performance
improvements as is.
Confine this special-case approach to the bounds of the VMA. This
prevents wasting memory for any padding that might exist in the file
between sections. Previously the padding would have been contained in
order-0 folios and would be easy to reclaim. But now it would be part of
a larger folio so more difficult to reclaim. Solve this by simply not
reading it into memory in the first place.
Benchmarking
============
The below shows pgbench and redis benchmarks on Graviton3 arm64 system.
First, confirmation that this patch causes more text to be contained in
64K folios:
+----------------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+
| File-backed folios by| system boot | pgbench | redis |
| size as percentage of+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+
| all mapped text mem |before | after |before | after |before | after |
+======================+=======+=======+=======+=======+=======+=======+
| base-page-4kB | 78% | 30% | 78% | 11% | 73% | 14% |
| thp-aligned-8kB | 1% | 0% | 0% | 0% | 1% | 0% |
| thp-aligned-16kB | 17% | 4% | 17% | 3% | 20% | 4% |
| thp-aligned-32kB | 1% | 1% | 1% | 2% | 1% | 1% |
| thp-aligned-64kB | 3% | 63% | 3% | 81% | 4% | 77% |
| thp-aligned-128kB | 0% | 1% | 1% | 1% | 1% | 2% |
| thp-unaligned-64kB | 0% | 0% | 0% | 1% | 0% | 1% |
| thp-unaligned-128kB | 0% | 1% | 0% | 0% | 0% | 0% |
| thp-partial | 0% | 0% | 0% | 1% | 0% | 1% |
+----------------------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+
| cont-aligned-64kB | 4% | 65% | 4% | 83% | 6% | 79% |
+----------------------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+
The above shows that for both workloads (each isolated with cgroups) as
well as the general system state after boot, the amount of text backed by
4K and 16K folios reduces and the amount backed by 64K folios increases
significantly. And the amount of text that is contpte-mapped
significantly increases (see last row).
And this is reflected in performance improvement. "(I)" indicates a
statistically significant improvement. Note TPS and Reqs/sec are rates so
bigger is better, ms is time so smaller is better:

... by factoring it out from track_pfn_remap() into

replacement for track_pfn_insert().
For PMDs/PUDs, we keep checking a single pfn only. Add some
documentation, and also document why it is valid to not check the whole
pfn range.
We'll reuse pfnmap_setup_cachemode() from core MM next.

Remove pgd_offset_gate() completely and simply make the single caller use
pgd_offset().
It appears that the gate area resides in the kernel-mapped segment
exclusively on IA64. Therefore, removing pgd_offset_k is safe since IA64
is now obsolete.
