We're going to allow mapping of individual 4k pages of THP compound. It
means we need to track mapcount on per small page basis.
Straight-forward approach is to use ->_mapcount in all subpages to track
how many time this subpage is mapped with PMDs or PTEs combined. But
this is rather expensive: mapping or unmapping of a THP page with PMD
would require HPAGE_PMD_NR atomic operations instead of single we have
now.
The idea is to store separately how many times the page was mapped as
whole -- compound_mapcount. This frees up ->_mapcount in subpages to
track PTE mapcount.
We use the same approach as with compound page destructor and compound
order to store compound_mapcount: use space in first tail page,
->mapping this time.
Any time we map/unmap whole compound page (THP or hugetlb) -- we
increment/decrement compound_mapcount. When we map part of compound
page with PTE we operate on ->_mapcount of the subpage.
page_mapcount() counts both: PTE and PMD mappings of the page.
Basically, we have mapcount for a subpage spread over two counters. It
makes tricky to detect when last mapcount for a page goes away.
We introduced PageDoubleMap() for this. When we split THP PMD for the
first time and there's other PMD mapping left we offset up ->_mapcount
in all subpages by one and set PG_double_map on the compound page.
These additional references go away with last compound_mapcount.
This approach provides a way to detect when last mapcount goes away on
per small page basis without introducing new overhead for most common
cases.

Tail page refcounting is utterly complicated and painful to support.
It uses ->_mapcount on tail pages to store how many times this page is
pinned. get_page() bumps ->_mapcount on tail page in addition to
->_count on head. This information is required by split_huge_page() to
be able to distribute pins from head of compound page to tails during
the split.
We will need ->_mapcount to account PTE mappings of subpages of the
compound page. We eliminate need in current meaning of ->_mapcount in
tail pages by forbidding split entirely if the page is pinned.
The only user of tail page refcounting is THP which is marked BROKEN for
now.
Let's drop all this mess. It makes get_page() and put_page() much
simpler.

We're going to allow mapping of individual 4k pages of THP compound
page. It means we cannot rely on PageTransHuge() check to decide if
map/unmap small page or THP.
The patch adds new argument to rmap functions to indicate whether we
want to operate on whole compound page or only the small page.

The Kconfig currently controlling compilation of this code is:
config HUGETLBFS
bool "HugeTLB file system support"
...meaning that it currently is not being built as a module by anyone.
Lets remove the modular code that is essentially orphaned, so that when
reading the driver there is no doubt it is builtin-only.
Since module_init translates to device_initcall in the non-modular case,
the init ordering gets moved to earlier levels when we use the more
appropriate initcalls here.
Originally I had the fs part and the mm part as separate commits, just
by happenstance of the nature of how I detected these non-modular use
cases. But that can possibly introduce regressions if the patch merge
ordering puts the fs part 1st -- as the 0-day testing reported a splat
at mount time.
Investigating with "initcall_debug" showed that the delta was
init_hugetlbfs_fs being called _before_ hugetlb_init instead of after. So
both the fs change and the mm change are here together.
In addition, it worked before due to luck of link order, since they were
both in the same initcall category. So we now have the fs part using
fs_initcall, and the mm part using subsys_initcall, which puts it one
bucket earlier. It now passes the basic sanity test that failed in
earlier 0-day testing.
We delete the MODULE_LICENSE tag and capture that information at the top
of the file alongside author comments, etc.
We don't replace module.h with init.h since the file already has that.
Also note that MODULE_ALIAS is a no-op for non-modular code.

Dmitry identified a potential memory leak in the routine region_chg,
where a region descriptor is not free'ed on an error path.
However, the root cause for the above memory leak resides in region_del.
In this specific case, a "placeholder" entry is created in region_chg.
The associated page allocation fails, and the placeholder entry is left
in the reserve map. This is "by design" as the entry should be deleted
when the map is released. The bug is in the region_del routine which is
used to delete entries within a specific range (and when the map is
released). region_del did not handle the case where a placeholder entry
exactly matched the start of the range range to be deleted. In this
case, the entry would not be deleted and leaked. The fix is to take
these special placeholder entries into account in region_del.
The region_chg error path leak is also fixed.

Currently at the beginning of hugetlb_fault(), we call huge_pte_offset()
and check whether the obtained *ptep is a migration/hwpoison entry or
not. And if not, then we get to call huge_pte_alloc(). This is racy
because the *ptep could turn into migration/hwpoison entry after the
huge_pte_offset() check. This race results in BUG_ON in
huge_pte_alloc().
We don't have to call huge_pte_alloc() when the huge_pte_offset()
returns non-NULL, so let's fix this bug with moving the code into else
block.
Note that the *ptep could turn into a migration/hwpoison entry after
this block, but that's not a problem because we have another
!pte_present check later (we never go into hugetlb_no_page() in that
case.)

When dequeue_huge_page_vma() in alloc_huge_page() fails, we fall back on
alloc_buddy_huge_page() to directly create a hugepage from the buddy
allocator.
In that case, however, if alloc_buddy_huge_page() succeeds we don't
decrement h->resv_huge_pages, which means that successful
hugetlb_fault() returns without releasing the reserve count. As a
result, subsequent hugetlb_fault() might fail despite that there are
still free hugepages.
This patch simply adds decrementing code on that code path.
I reproduced this problem when testing v4.3 kernel in the following situation:
- the test machine/VM is a NUMA system,
- hugepage overcommiting is enabled,
- most of hugepages are allocated and there's only one free hugepage
which is on node 0 (for example),
- another program, which calls set_mempolicy(MPOL_BIND) to bind itself to
node 1, tries to allocate a hugepage,
- the allocation should fail but the reserve count is still hold.

Hugh has pointed that compound_head() call can be unsafe in some
context. There's one example:
CPU0 CPU1
isolate_migratepages_block()
page_count()
compound_head()
!!PageTail() == true
put_page()
tail->first_page = NULL
head = tail->first_page
alloc_pages(__GFP_COMP)
prep_compound_page()
tail->first_page = head
__SetPageTail(p);
!!PageTail() == true
<head == NULL dereferencing>
The race is pure theoretical. I don't it's possible to trigger it in
practice. But who knows.
We can fix the race by changing how encode PageTail() and compound_head()
within struct page to be able to update them in one shot.
The patch introduces page->compound_head into third double word block in
front of compound_dtor and compound_order. Bit 0 encodes PageTail() and
the rest bits are pointer to head page if bit zero is set.
The patch moves page->pmd_huge_pte out of word, just in case if an
architecture defines pgtable_t into something what can have the bit 0
set.
hugetlb_cgroup uses page->lru.next in the second tail page to store
pointer struct hugetlb_cgroup. The patch switch it to use page->private
in the second tail page instead. The space is free since ->first_page is
removed from the union.
The patch also opens possibility to remove HUGETLB_CGROUP_MIN_ORDER
limitation, since there's now space in first tail page to store struct
hugetlb_cgroup pointer. But that's out of scope of the patch.
That means page->compound_head shares storage space with:
- page->lru.next;
- page->next;
- page->rcu_head.next;
That's too long list to be absolutely sure, but looks like nobody uses
bit 0 of the word.
page->rcu_head.next guaranteed[1] to have bit 0 clean as long as we use
call_rcu(), call_rcu_bh(), call_rcu_sched(), or call_srcu(). But future
call_rcu_lazy() is not allowed as it makes use of the bit and we can
get false positive PageTail().

The patch halves space occupied by compound_dtor and compound_order in
struct page.
For compound_order, it's trivial long -> short conversion.
For get_compound_page_dtor(), we now use hardcoded table for destructor
lookup and store its index in the struct page instead of direct pointer
to destructor. It shouldn't be a big trouble to maintain the table: we
have only two destructor and NULL currently.
This patch free up one word in tail pages for reuse. This is preparation
for the next patch.

The cost of faulting in all memory to be locked can be very high when
working with large mappings. If only portions of the mapping will be used
this can incur a high penalty for locking.
For the example of a large file, this is the usage pattern for a large
statical language model (probably applies to other statical or graphical
models as well). For the security example, any application transacting in
data that cannot be swapped out (credit card data, medical records, etc).
This patch introduces the ability to request that pages are not
pre-faulted, but are placed on the unevictable LRU when they are finally
faulted in. The VM_LOCKONFAULT flag will be used together with VM_LOCKED
and has no effect when set without VM_LOCKED. Setting the VM_LOCKONFAULT
flag for a VMA will cause pages faulted into that VMA to be added to the
unevictable LRU when they are faulted or if they are already present, but
will not cause any missing pages to be faulted in.
Exposing this new lock state means that we cannot overload the meaning of
the FOLL_POPULATE flag any longer. Prior to this patch it was used to
mean that the VMA for a fault was locked. This means we need the new
FOLL_MLOCK flag to communicate the locked state of a VMA. FOLL_POPULATE
will now only control if the VMA should be populated and in the case of
VM_LOCKONFAULT, it will not be set.

My recent patch "mm, hugetlb: use memory policy when available" added some
bloat to hugetlb.o. This patch aims to get some of the bloat back,
especially when NUMA is not in play.
It does this with an implicit #ifdef and marking some things static that
should have been static in my first patch. It also makes the warnings
only VM_WARN_ON()s. They were responsible for a pretty big chunk of the
bloat.
Doing this gets our NUMA=n text size back to a wee bit _below_ where we
started before the original patch.
It also shaves a bit of space off the NUMA=y case, but not much.
Enforcing the mempolicy definitely takes some text and it's hard to avoid.

I have a hugetlbfs user which is never explicitly allocating huge pages
with 'nr_hugepages'. They only set 'nr_overcommit_hugepages' and then let
the pages be allocated from the buddy allocator at fault time.
This works, but they noticed that mbind() was not doing them any good and
the pages were being allocated without respect for the policy they
specified.
The code in question is this:
> struct page *alloc_huge_page(struct vm_area_struct *vma,
...
> page = dequeue_huge_page_vma(h, vma, addr, avoid_reserve, gbl_chg);
> if (!page) {
> page = alloc_buddy_huge_page(h, NUMA_NO_NODE);
dequeue_huge_page_vma() is smart and will respect the VMA's memory policy.
But, it only grabs _existing_ huge pages from the huge page pool. If the
pool is empty, we fall back to alloc_buddy_huge_page() which obviously
can't do anything with the VMA's policy because it isn't even passed the
VMA.
Almost everybody preallocates huge pages. That's probably why nobody has
ever noticed this. Looking back at the git history, I don't think this
_ever_ worked from when alloc_buddy_huge_page() was introduced in

The fix is to pass vma/addr down in to the places where we actually call
in to the buddy allocator. It's fairly straightforward plumbing. This
has been lightly tested.

Currently there's no easy way to get per-process usage of hugetlb pages,
which is inconvenient because userspace applications which use hugetlb
typically want to control their processes on the basis of how much memory
(including hugetlb) they use. So this patch simply provides easy access
to the info via /proc/PID/status.

SunDong reported the following on
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=103841
I think I find a linux bug, I have the test cases is constructed. I
can stable recurring problems in fedora22(4.0.4) kernel version,
arch for x86_64. I construct transparent huge page, when the parent
and child process with MAP_SHARE, MAP_PRIVATE way to access the same
huge page area, it has the opportunity to lead to huge page copy on
write failure, and then it will munmap the child corresponding mmap
area, but then the child mmap area with VM_MAYSHARE attributes, child
process munmap this area can trigger VM_BUG_ON in set_vma_resv_flags
functions (vma - > vm_flags & VM_MAYSHARE).
There were a number of problems with the report (e.g. it's hugetlbfs that
triggers this, not transparent huge pages) but it was fundamentally
correct in that a VM_BUG_ON in set_vma_resv_flags() can be triggered that
looks like this
vma ffff8804651fd0d0 start 00007fc474e00000 end 00007fc475e00000

The VM_BUG_ON is correct because private and shared mappings have
different reservation accounting but the warning clearly shows that the
VMA is shared.
When a private COW fails to allocate a new page then only the process
that created the VMA gets the page -- all the children unmap the page.
If the children access that data in the future then they get killed.
The problem is that the same file is mapped shared and private. During
the COW, the allocation fails, the VMAs are traversed to unmap the other
private pages but a shared VMA is found and the bug is triggered. This
patch identifies such VMAs and skips them.

alloc_pages_exact_node() was introduced in commit 6484eb3e2a81 ("page
allocator: do not check NUMA node ID when the caller knows the node is
valid") as an optimized variant of alloc_pages_node(), that doesn't
fallback to current node for nid == NUMA_NO_NODE. Unfortunately the
name of the function can easily suggest that the allocation is
restricted to the given node and fails otherwise. In truth, the node is
only preferred, unless __GFP_THISNODE is passed among the gfp flags.
The misleading name has lead to mistakes in the past, see for example
commits 5265047ac301 ("mm, thp: really limit transparent hugepage
allocation to local node") and b360edb43f8e ("mm, mempolicy:
migrate_to_node should only migrate to node").
Another issue with the name is that there's a family of
alloc_pages_exact*() functions where 'exact' means exact size (instead
of page order), which leads to more confusion.
To prevent further mistakes, this patch effectively renames
alloc_pages_exact_node() to __alloc_pages_node() to better convey that
it's an optimized variant of alloc_pages_node() not intended for general
usage. Both functions get described in comments.
It has been also considered to really provide a convenience function for
allocations restricted to a node, but the major opinion seems to be that
__GFP_THISNODE already provides that functionality and we shouldn't
duplicate the API needlessly. The number of users would be small
anyway.
Existing callers of alloc_pages_exact_node() are simply converted to
call __alloc_pages_node(), with the exception of sba_alloc_coherent()
which open-codes the check for NUMA_NO_NODE, so it is converted to use
alloc_pages_node() instead. This means it no longer performs some
VM_BUG_ON checks, and since the current check for nid in
alloc_pages_node() uses a 'nid < 0' comparison (which includes
NUMA_NO_NODE), it may hide wrong values which would be previously
exposed.
Both differences will be rectified by the next patch.
To sum up, this patch makes no functional changes, except temporarily
hiding potentially buggy callers. Restricting the checks in
alloc_pages_node() is left for the next patch which can in turn expose
more existing buggy callers.

This is based on the shmem version, but it has diverged quite a bit. We
have no swap to worry about, nor the new file sealing. Add
synchronication via the fault mutex table to coordinate page faults,
fallocate allocation and fallocate hole punch.
What this allows us to do is move physical memory in and out of a
hugetlbfs file without having it mapped. This also gives us the ability
to support MADV_REMOVE since it is currently implemented using
fallocate(). MADV_REMOVE lets madvise() remove pages from the middle of
a hugetlbfs file, which wasn't possible before.
hugetlbfs fallocate only operates on whole huge pages.
Based on code by Dave Hansen.

In vma_has_reserves(), the current assumption is that reserves are
always present for shared mappings. However, this will not be the case
with fallocate hole punch. When punching a hole, the present page will
be deleted as well as the region/reserve map entry (and hence any
reservation). vma_has_reserves is passed "chg" which indicates whether
or not a region/reserve map is present. Use this to determine if
reserves are actually present or were removed via hole punch.

Modify truncate_hugepages() to take a range of pages (start, end)
instead of simply start. If an end value of LLONG_MAX is passed, the
current "truncate" functionality is maintained. Existing callers are
modified to pass LLONG_MAX as end of range. By keying off end ==
LLONG_MAX, the routine behaves differently for truncate and hole punch.
Page removal is now synchronized with page allocation via faults by
using the fault mutex table. The hole punch case can experience the
rare region_del error and must handle accordingly.
Add the routine hugetlb_fix_reserve_counts to fix up reserve counts in
the case where region_del returns an error.
Since the routine handles more than just the truncate case, it is
renamed to remove_inode_hugepages(). To be consistent, the routine
truncate_huge_page() is renamed remove_huge_page().
Downstream of remove_inode_hugepages(), the routine
hugetlb_unreserve_pages() is also modified to take a range of pages.
hugetlb_unreserve_pages is modified to detect an error from region_del and
pass it back to the caller.

fallocate hole punch will want to remove a specific range of pages. The
existing region_truncate() routine deletes all region/reserve map
entries after a specified offset. region_del() will provide this same
functionality if the end of region is specified as LONG_MAX. Hence,
region_del() can replace region_truncate().
Unlike region_truncate(), region_del() can return an error in the rare
case where it can not allocate memory for a region descriptor. This
ONLY happens in the case where an existing region must be split.
Current callers passing LONG_MAX as end of range will never experience
this error and do not need to deal with error handling. Future callers
of region_del() (such as fallocate hole punch) will need to handle this
error.

hugetlbfs is used today by applications that want a high degree of
control over huge page usage. Often, large hugetlbfs files are used to
map a large number huge pages into the application processes. The
applications know when page ranges within these large files will no
longer be used, and ideally would like to release them back to the
subpool or global pools for other uses. The fallocate() system call
provides an interface for preallocation and hole punching within files.
This patch set adds fallocate functionality to hugetlbfs.
fallocate hole punch will want to remove a specific range of pages.
When pages are removed, their associated entries in the region/reserve
map will also be removed. This will break an assumption in the
region_chg/region_add calling sequence. If a new region descriptor must
be allocated, it is done as part of the region_chg processing. In this
way, region_add can not fail because it does not need to attempt an
allocation.
To prepare for fallocate hole punch, create a "cache" of descriptors
that can be used by region_add if necessary. region_chg will ensure
there are sufficient entries in the cache. It will be necessary to
track the number of in progress add operations to know a sufficient
number of descriptors reside in the cache. A new routine region_abort
is added to adjust this in progress count when add operations are
aborted. vma_abort_reservation is also added for callers creating
reservations with vma_needs_reservation/vma_commit_reservation.

alloc_huge_page and hugetlb_reserve_pages use region_chg to calculate the
number of pages which will be added to the reserve map. Subpool and
global reserve counts are adjusted based on the output of region_chg.
Before the pages are actually added to the reserve map, these routines
could race and add fewer pages than expected. If this happens, the
subpool and global reserve counts are not correct.
Compare the number of pages actually added (region_add) to those expected
to added (region_chg). If fewer pages are actually added, this indicates
a race and adjust counters accordingly.

While working on hugetlbfs fallocate support, I noticed the following race
in the existing code. It is unlikely that this race is hit very often in
the current code. However, if more functionality to add and remove pages
to hugetlbfs mappings (such as fallocate) is added the likelihood of
hitting this race will increase.
alloc_huge_page and hugetlb_reserve_pages use information from the reserve
map to determine if there are enough available huge pages to complete the
operation, as well as adjust global reserve and subpool usage counts. The
order of operations is as follows:
- call region_chg() to determine the expected change based on reserve map
- determine if enough resources are available for this operation
- adjust global counts based on the expected change
- call region_add() to update the reserve map
The issue is that reserve map could change between the call to region_chg
and region_add. In this case, the counters which were adjusted based on
the output of region_chg will not be correct.
In order to hit this race today, there must be an existing shared hugetlb
mmap created with the MAP_NORESERVE flag. A page fault to allocate a huge
page via this mapping must occur at the same another task is mapping the
same region without the MAP_NORESERVE flag.
The patch set does not prevent the race from happening. Rather, it adds
simple functionality to detect when the race has occurred. If a race is
detected, then the incorrect counts are adjusted.
Review comments pointed out the need for documentation of the existing
region/reserve map routines. This patch set also adds documentation in
this area.
This patch (of 3):
This is a documentation only patch and does not modify any code.
Descriptions of the routines used for reserve map/region tracking are
added.

Currently the initial value of order in dissolve_free_huge_page is 64 or
32, which leads to the following warning in static checker:
mm/hugetlb.c:1203 dissolve_free_huge_pages()
warn: potential right shift more than type allows '9,18,64'
This is a potential risk of infinite loop, because 1 << order (== 0) is used
in for-loop like this:
for (pfn =3D start_pfn; pfn < end_pfn; pfn +=3D 1 << order)
...
So this patch fixes it by using global minimum_order calculated at boot time.

We are not safe from calling isolate_huge_page() on a hugepage
concurrently, which can make the victim hugepage in invalid state and
results in BUG_ON().
The root problem of this is that we don't have any information on struct
page (so easily accessible) about hugepages' activeness. Note that
hugepages' activeness means just being linked to
hstate->hugepage_activelist, which is not the same as normal pages'
activeness represented by PageActive flag.
Normal pages are isolated by isolate_lru_page() which prechecks PageLRU
before isolation, so let's do similarly for hugetlb with a new
paeg_huge_active().
set/clear_page_huge_active() should be called within hugetlb_lock. But
hugetlb_cow() and hugetlb_no_page() don't do this, being justified because
in these functions set_page_huge_active() is called right after the
hugepage is allocated and no other thread tries to isolate it.

Make 'min_size=<value>' be an option when mounting a hugetlbfs. This
option takes the same value as the 'size' option. min_size can be
specified without specifying size. If both are specified, min_size must
be less that or equal to size else the mount will fail. If min_size is
specified, then at mount time an attempt is made to reserve min_size
pages. If the reservation fails, the mount fails. At umount time, the
reserved pages are released.

The same routines that perform subpool maximum size accounting
hugepage_subpool_get/put_pages() are modified to also perform minimum size
accounting. When a delta value is passed to these routines, calculate how
global reservations must be adjusted to maintain the subpool minimum size.
The routines now return this global reserve count adjustment. This
global reserve count adjustment is then passed to the global accounting
routine hugetlb_acct_memory().

hugetlbfs allocates huge pages from the global pool as needed. Even if
the global pool contains a sufficient number pages for the filesystem size
at mount time, those global pages could be grabbed for some other use. As
a result, filesystem huge page allocations may fail due to lack of pages.
Applications such as a database want to use huge pages for performance
reasons. hugetlbfs filesystem semantics with ownership and modes work
well to manage access to a pool of huge pages. However, the application
would like some reasonable assurance that allocations will not fail due to
a lack of huge pages. At application startup time, the application would
like to configure itself to use a specific number of huge pages. Before
starting, the application can check to make sure that enough huge pages
exist in the system global pools. However, there are no guarantees that
those pages will be available when needed by the application. What the
application wants is exclusive use of a subset of huge pages.
Add a new hugetlbfs mount option 'min_size=<value>' to indicate that the
specified number of pages will be available for use by the filesystem. At
mount time, this number of huge pages will be reserved for exclusive use
of the filesystem. If there is not a sufficient number of free pages, the
mount will fail. As pages are allocated to and freeed from the
filesystem, the number of reserved pages is adjusted so that the specified
minimum is maintained.
This patch (of 4):
Add a field to the subpool structure to indicate the minimimum number of
huge pages to always be used by this subpool. This minimum count includes
allocated pages as well as reserved pages. If the minimum number of pages
for the subpool have not been allocated, pages are reserved up to this
minimum. An additional field (rsv_hpages) is used to track the number of
pages reserved to meet this minimum size. The hstate pointer in the
subpool is convenient to have when reserving and unreserving the pages.

If __get_user_pages() is faulting a significant number of hugetlb pages,
usually as the result of mmap(MAP_LOCKED), it can potentially allocate a
very large amount of memory.
If the process has been oom killed, this will cause a lot of memory to
potentially deplete memory reserves.
In the same way that commit 4779280d1ea4 ("mm: make get_user_pages()
interruptible") aborted for pending SIGKILLs when faulting non-hugetlb
memory, based on the premise of commit 462e00cc7151 ("oom: stop
allocating user memory if TIF_MEMDIE is set"), hugetlb page faults now
terminate when the process has been oom killed.

Commit 61f77eda9bbf ("mm/hugetlb: reduce arch dependent code around
follow_huge_*") broke follow_huge_pmd() on s390, where pmd and pte
layout differ and using pte_page() on a huge pmd will return wrong
results. Using pmd_page() instead fixes this.
All architectures that were touched by that commit have pmd_page()
defined, so this should not break anything on other architectures.

Dave noticed that unprivileged process can allocate significant amount of
memory -- >500 MiB on x86_64 -- and stay unnoticed by oom-killer and
memory cgroup. The trick is to allocate a lot of PMD page tables. Linux
kernel doesn't account PMD tables to the process, only PTE.
The use-cases below use few tricks to allocate a lot of PMD page tables
while keeping VmRSS and VmPTE low. oom_score for the process will be 0.
#include <errno.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/mman.h>
#include <sys/prctl.h>
#define PUD_SIZE (1UL << 30)
#define PMD_SIZE (1UL << 21)
#define NR_PUD 130000
int main(void)
{
char *addr = NULL;
unsigned long i;
prctl(PR_SET_THP_DISABLE);
for (i = 0; i < NR_PUD ; i++) {
addr = mmap(addr + PUD_SIZE, PUD_SIZE, PROT_WRITE|PROT_READ,
MAP_ANONYMOUS|MAP_PRIVATE, -1, 0);
if (addr == MAP_FAILED) {
perror("mmap");
break;
}
*addr = 'x';
munmap(addr, PMD_SIZE);
mmap(addr, PMD_SIZE, PROT_WRITE|PROT_READ,
MAP_ANONYMOUS|MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_FIXED, -1, 0);
if (addr == MAP_FAILED)
perror("re-mmap"), exit(1);
}
printf("PID %d consumed %lu KiB in PMD page tables\n",
getpid(), i * 4096 >> 10);
return pause();
}
The patch addresses the issue by account PMD tables to the process the
same way we account PTE.
The main place where PMD tables is accounted is __pmd_alloc() and
free_pmd_range(). But there're few corner cases:
- HugeTLB can share PMD page tables. The patch handles by accounting
the table to all processes who share it.
- x86 PAE pre-allocates few PMD tables on fork.
- Architectures with FIRST_USER_ADDRESS > 0. We need to adjust sanity
check on exit(2).
Accounting only happens on configuration where PMD page table's level is
present (PMD is not folded). As with nr_ptes we use per-mm counter. The
counter value is used to calculate baseline for badness score by
oom-killer.

When running the test which causes the race as shown in the previous patch,
we can hit the BUG "get_page() on refcount 0 page" in hugetlb_fault().
This race happens when pte turns into migration entry just after the first
check of is_hugetlb_entry_migration() in hugetlb_fault() passed with false.
To fix this, we need to check pte_present() again after huge_ptep_get().
This patch also reorders taking ptl and doing pte_page(), because
pte_page() should be done in ptl. Due to this reordering, we need use
trylock_page() in page != pagecache_page case to respect locking order.

We have a race condition between move_pages() and freeing hugepages, where
move_pages() calls follow_page(FOLL_GET) for hugepages internally and
tries to get its refcount without preventing concurrent freeing. This
race crashes the kernel, so this patch fixes it by moving FOLL_GET code
for hugepages into follow_huge_pmd() with taking the page table lock.
This patch intentionally removes page==NULL check after pte_page.
This is justified because pte_page() never returns NULL for any
architectures or configurations.
This patch changes the behavior of follow_huge_pmd() for tail pages and
then tail pages can be pinned/returned. So the caller must be changed to
properly handle the returned tail pages.
We could have a choice to add the similar locking to
follow_huge_(addr|pud) for consistency, but it's not necessary because
currently these functions don't support FOLL_GET flag, so let's leave it
for future development.
Here is the reproducer:

Migrating hugepages and hwpoisoned hugepages are considered as non-present
hugepages, and they are referenced via migration entries and hwpoison
entries in their page table slots.
This behavior causes race condition because pmd_huge() doesn't tell
non-huge pages from migrating/hwpoisoned hugepages. follow_page_mask() is
one example where the kernel would call follow_page_pte() for such
hugepage while this function is supposed to handle only normal pages.
To avoid this, this patch makes pmd_huge() return true when pmd_none() is
true *and* pmd_present() is false. We don't have to worry about mixing up
non-present pmd entry with normal pmd (pointing to leaf level pte entry)
because pmd_present() is true in normal pmd.
The same race condition could happen in (x86-specific) gup_pmd_range(),
where this patch simply adds pmd_present() check instead of pmd_huge().
This is because gup_pmd_range() is fast path. If we have non-present
hugepage in this function, we will go into gup_huge_pmd(), then return 0
at flag mask check, and finally fall back to the slow path.

Currently we have many duplicates in definitions around
follow_huge_addr(), follow_huge_pmd(), and follow_huge_pud(), so this
patch tries to remove the m. The basic idea is to put the default
implementation for these functions in mm/hugetlb.c as weak symbols
(regardless of CONFIG_ARCH_WANT_GENERAL_HUGETL B), and to implement
arch-specific code only when the arch needs it.
For follow_huge_addr(), only powerpc and ia64 have their own
implementation, and in all other architectures this function just returns
ERR_PTR(-EINVAL). So this patch sets returning ERR_PTR(-EINVAL) as
default.
As for follow_huge_(pmd|pud)(), if (pmd|pud)_huge() is implemented to
always return 0 in your architecture (like in ia64 or sparc,) it's never
called (the callsite is optimized away) no matter how implemented it is.
So in such architectures, we don't need arch-specific implementation.
In some architecture (like mips, s390 and tile,) their current
arch-specific follow_huge_(pmd|pud)() are effectively identical with the
common code, so this patch lets these architecture use the common code.
One exception is metag, where pmd_huge() could return non-zero but it
expects follow_huge_pmd() to always return NULL. This means that we need
arch-specific implementation which returns NULL. This behavior looks
strange to me (because non-zero pmd_huge() implies that the architecture
supports PMD-based hugepage, so follow_huge_pmd() can/should return some
relevant value,) but that's beyond this cleanup patch, so let's keep it.
Justification of non-trivial changes:
- in s390, follow_huge_pmd() checks !MACHINE_HAS_HPAGE at first, and this
patch removes the check. This is OK because we can assume MACHINE_HAS_HPAGE
is true when follow_huge_pmd() can be called (note that pmd_huge() has
the same check and always returns 0 for !MACHINE_HAS_HPAGE.)
- in s390 and mips, we use HPAGE_MASK instead of PMD_MASK as done in common
code. This patch forces these archs use PMD_MASK, but it's OK because
they are identical in both archs.
In s390, both of HPAGE_SHIFT and PMD_SHIFT are 20.
In mips, HPAGE_SHIFT is defined as (PAGE_SHIFT + PAGE_SHIFT - 3) and
PMD_SHIFT is define as (PAGE_SHIFT + PAGE_SHIFT + PTE_ORDER - 3), but
PTE_ORDER is always 0, so these are identical.
