mm: Fix a hmm_range_fault() livelock / starvation problem
If hmm_range_fault() fails a folio_trylock() in do_swap_page,
trying to acquire the lock of a device-private folio for migration,
to ram, the function will spin until it succeeds grabbing the lock.
However, if the process holding the lock is depending on a work
item to be completed, which is scheduled on the same CPU as the
spinning hmm_range_fault(), that work item might be starved and
we end up in a livelock / starvation situation which is never
resolved.
This can happen, for example if the process holding the
device-private folio lock is stuck in
migrate_device_unmap()->lru_add_drain_all()
sinc lru_add_drain_all() requires a short work-item
to be run on all online cpus to complete.
A prerequisite for this to happen is:
a) Both zone device and system memory folios are considered in
migrate_device_unmap(), so that there is a reason to call
lru_add_drain_all() for a system memory folio while a
folio lock is held on a zone device folio.
b) The zone device folio has an initial mapcount > 1 which causes
at least one migration PTE entry insertion to be deferred to
try_to_migrate(), which can happen after the call to
lru_add_drain_all().
c) No or voluntary only preemption.
This all seems pretty unlikely to happen, but indeed is hit by
the "xe_exec_system_allocator" igt test.
Resolve this by waiting for the folio to be unlocked if the
folio_trylock() fails in do_swap_page().
Rename migration_entry_wait_on_locked() to
softleaf_entry_wait_unlock() and update its documentation to
indicate the new use-case.
Future code improvements might consider moving
the lru_add_drain_all() call in migrate_device_unmap() to be
called *after* all pages have migration entries inserted.
That would eliminate also b) above.
v2:
- Instead of a cond_resched() in hmm_range_fault(),
eliminate the problem by waiting for the folio to be unlocked
in do_swap_page() (Alistair Popple, Andrew Morton)
v3:
- Add a stub migration_entry_wait_on_locked() for the
!CONFIG_MIGRATION case. (Kernel Test Robot)
v4:
- Rename migrate_entry_wait_on_locked() to
softleaf_entry_wait_on_locked() and update docs (Alistair Popple)
v5:
- Add a WARN_ON_ONCE() for the !CONFIG_MIGRATION
version of softleaf_entry_wait_on_locked().
- Modify wording around function names in the commit message

mm/slab: initialize slab->stride early to avoid memory ordering issues
When alloc_slab_obj_exts() is called later (instead of during slab
allocation and initialization), slab->stride and slab->obj_exts are
updated after the slab is already accessible by multiple CPUs.
The current implementation does not enforce memory ordering between
slab->stride and slab->obj_exts. For correctness, slab->stride must be
visible before slab->obj_exts. Otherwise, concurrent readers may observe
slab->obj_exts as non-zero while stride is still stale.
With stale slab->stride, slab_obj_ext() could return the wrong obj_ext.
This could cause two problems:
- obj_cgroup_put() is called on the wrong objcg, leading to
a use-after-free due to incorrect reference counting [1] by
decrementing the reference count more than it was incremented.
- refill_obj_stock() is called on the wrong objcg, leading to
a page_counter overflow [2] by uncharging more memory than charged.
Fix this by unconditionally initializing slab->stride in
alloc_slab_obj_exts_early(), before the need_slab_obj_exts() check.
In the case of SLAB_OBJ_EXT_IN_OBJ, it is overridden in the function.
This ensures updates to slab->stride become visible before the slab
can be accessed by other CPUs via the per-node partial slab list
(protected by spinlock with acquire/release semantics).
Thanks to Shakeel Butt for pointing out this issue [3].
[vbabka@kernel.org: the bug reports [1] and [2] are not yet fully fixed,
with investigation ongoing, but it is nevertheless a step in the right
direction to only set stride once after allocating the slab and not
change it later ]

mm/slab: mark alloc tags empty for sheaves allocated with __GFP_NO_OBJ_EXT
alloc_empty_sheaf() allocates sheaves from SLAB_KMALLOC caches using __GFP_NO_OBJ_EXT to avoid recursion, however it does not mark their allocation tags empty before freeing, which results in a warning when CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_DEBUG is set. Fix this by marking allocation tags for such sheaves as empty. The problem was technically introduced in commit |

mm/slab: pass __GFP_NOWARN to refill_sheaf() if fallback is available
When refill_sheaf() is called, failing to refill the sheaf doesn't
necessarily mean the allocation will fail because a fallback path
might be available and serve the allocation request.
Suppress spurious warnings by passing __GFP_NOWARN along with
__GFP_NOMEMALLOC whenever a fallback path is available.
When the caller is alloc_full_sheaf() or __pcs_replace_empty_main(),
the kernel always falls back to the slowpath (__slab_alloc_node()).
For __prefill_sheaf_pfmemalloc(), the fallback path is available
only when gfp_pfmemalloc_allowed() returns true.

mm/kfence: fix KASAN hardware tag faults during late enablement
When KASAN hardware tags are enabled, re-enabling KFENCE late (via
/sys/module/kfence/parameters/sample_interval) causes KASAN faults.
This happens because the KFENCE pool and metadata are allocated via the
page allocator, which tags the memory, while KFENCE continues to access it
using untagged pointers during initialization.
Use __GFP_SKIP_KASAN for late KFENCE pool and metadata allocations to
ensure the memory remains untagged, consistent with early allocations from
memblock. To support this, add __GFP_SKIP_KASAN to the allowlist in
__alloc_contig_verify_gfp_mask().

mm/damon/core: disallow non-power of two min_region_sz
DAMON core uses min_region_sz parameter value as the DAMON region
alignment. The alignment is made using ALIGN() and ALIGN_DOWN(), which
support only the power of two alignments. But DAMON core API callers can
set min_region_sz to an arbitrary number. Users can also set it
indirectly, using addr_unit.
When the alignment is not properly set, DAMON behavior becomes difficult
to expect and understand, makes it effectively broken. It doesn't cause a
kernel crash-like significant issue, though.
Fix the issue by disallowing min_region_sz input that is not a power of
two. Add the check to damon_commit_ctx(), as all DAMON API callers who
set min_region_sz uses the function.
This can be a sort of behavioral change, but it does not break users, for
the following reasons. As the symptom is making DAMON effectively broken,
it is not reasonable to believe there are real use cases of non-power of
two min_region_sz. There is no known use case or issue reports from the
setup, either.
In future, if we find real use cases of non-power of two alignments and we
can support it with low enough overhead, we can consider moving the
restriction. But, for now, simply disallowing the corner case should be
good enough as a hot fix.

liveupdate: luo_file: remember retrieve() status
LUO keeps track of successful retrieve attempts on a LUO file. It does so
to avoid multiple retrievals of the same file. Multiple retrievals cause
problems because once the file is retrieved, the serialized data
structures are likely freed and the file is likely in a very different
state from what the code expects.
The retrieve boolean in struct luo_file keeps track of this, and is passed
to the finish callback so it knows what work was already done and what it
has left to do.
All this works well when retrieve succeeds. When it fails,
luo_retrieve_file() returns the error immediately, without ever storing
anywhere that a retrieve was attempted or what its error code was. This
results in an errored LIVEUPDATE_SESSION_RETRIEVE_FD ioctl to userspace,
but nothing prevents it from trying this again.
The retry is problematic for much of the same reasons listed above. The
file is likely in a very different state than what the retrieve logic
normally expects, and it might even have freed some serialization data
structures. Attempting to access them or free them again is going to
break things.
For example, if memfd managed to restore 8 of its 10 folios, but fails on
the 9th, a subsequent retrieve attempt will try to call
kho_restore_folio() on the first folio again, and that will fail with a
warning since it is an invalid operation.
Apart from the retry, finish() also breaks. Since on failure the
retrieved bool in luo_file is never touched, the finish() call on session
close will tell the file handler that retrieve was never attempted, and it
will try to access or free the data structures that might not exist, much
in the same way as the retry attempt.
There is no sane way of attempting the retrieve again. Remember the error
retrieve returned and directly return it on a retry. Also pass this
status code to finish() so it can make the right decision on the work it
needs to do.
This is done by changing the bool to an integer. A value of 0 means
retrieve was never attempted, a positive value means it succeeded, and a
negative value means it failed and the error code is the value.

mm: thp: deny THP for files on anonymous inodes
file_thp_enabled() incorrectly allows THP for files on anonymous inodes
(e.g. guest_memfd and secretmem). These files are created via
alloc_file_pseudo(), which does not call get_write_access() and leaves
inode->i_writecount at 0. Combined with S_ISREG(inode->i_mode) being
true, they appear as read-only regular files when
CONFIG_READ_ONLY_THP_FOR_FS is enabled, making them eligible for THP
collapse.
Anonymous inodes can never pass the inode_is_open_for_write() check
since their i_writecount is never incremented through the normal VFS
open path. The right thing to do is to exclude them from THP eligibility
altogether, since CONFIG_READ_ONLY_THP_FOR_FS was designed for real
filesystem files (e.g. shared libraries), not for pseudo-filesystem
inodes.
For guest_memfd, this allows khugepaged and MADV_COLLAPSE to create
large folios in the page cache via the collapse path, but the
guest_memfd fault handler does not support large folios. This triggers
WARN_ON_ONCE(folio_test_large(folio)) in kvm_gmem_fault_user_mapping().
For secretmem, collapse_file() tries to copy page contents through the
direct map, but secretmem pages are removed from the direct map. This
can result in a kernel crash:
BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffff88810284d000
RIP: 0010:memcpy_orig+0x16/0x130
Call Trace:
collapse_file
hpage_collapse_scan_file
madvise_collapse
Secretmem is not affected by the crash on upstream as the memory failure
recovery handles the failed copy gracefully, but it still triggers
confusing false memory failure reports:
Memory failure: 0x106d96f: recovery action for clean unevictable
LRU page: Recovered

mm/kfence: disable KFENCE upon KASAN HW tags enablement
KFENCE does not currently support KASAN hardware tags. As a result, the
two features are incompatible when enabled simultaneously.
Given that MTE provides deterministic protection and KFENCE is a
sampling-based debugging tool, prioritize the stronger hardware
protections. Disable KFENCE initialization and free the pre-allocated
pool if KASAN hardware tags are detected to ensure the system maintains
the security guarantees provided by MTE.

Convert more 'alloc_obj' cases to default GFP_KERNEL arguments
This converts some of the visually simpler cases that have been split over multiple lines. I only did the ones that are easy to verify the resulting diff by having just that final GFP_KERNEL argument on the next line. Somebody should probably do a proper coccinelle script for this, but for me the trivial script actually resulted in an assertion failure in the middle of the script. I probably had made it a bit _too_ trivial. So after fighting that far a while I decided to just do some of the syntactically simpler cases with variations of the previous 'sed' scripts. The more syntactically complex multi-line cases would mostly really want whitespace cleanup anyway. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> |

xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'
to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.
Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.
For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate

mm: numa_memblks: Identify the accurate NUMA ID of CFMW
In some physical memory layout designs, the address space of CFMW (CXL
Fixed Memory Window) resides between multiple segments of system memory
belonging to the same NUMA node. In numa_cleanup_meminfo, these multiple
segments of system memory are merged into a larger numa_memblk. When
identifying which NUMA node the CFMW belongs to, it may be incorrectly
assigned to the NUMA node of the merged system memory.
When a CXL RAM region is created in userspace, the memory capacity of
the newly created region is not added to the CFMW-dedicated NUMA node.
Instead, it is accumulated into an existing NUMA node (e.g., NUMA0
containing RAM). This makes it impossible to clearly distinguish
between the two types of memory, which may affect memory-tiering
applications.
Example memory layout:
Physical address space:
0x00000000 - 0x1FFFFFFF System RAM (node0)
0x20000000 - 0x2FFFFFFF CXL CFMW (node2)
0x40000000 - 0x5FFFFFFF System RAM (node0)
0x60000000 - 0x7FFFFFFF System RAM (node1)
After numa_cleanup_meminfo, the two node0 segments are merged into one:
0x00000000 - 0x5FFFFFFF System RAM (node0) // CFMW is inside the range
0x60000000 - 0x7FFFFFFF System RAM (node1)
So the CFMW (0x20000000-0x2FFFFFFF) will be incorrectly assigned to node0.
To address this scenario, accurately identifying the correct NUMA node
can be achieved by checking whether the region belongs to both
numa_meminfo and numa_reserved_meminfo.
While this issue is only observed in a QEMU configuration, and no known
end users are impacted by this problem, it is likely that some firmware
implementation is leaving memory map holes in a CXL Fixed Memory Window.
CXL hotplug depends on mapping free window capacity, and it seems to be
only a coincidence to have not hit this problem yet.

- More pKVM fixes for features that are not supposed to be exposed to
guests
- Make sure that MTE being disabled on the pKVM host doesn't give it
the ability to attack the hypervisor
- Allow pKVM's host stage-2 mappings to use the Force Write Back
version of the memory attributes by using the "pass-through'
encoding
- Fix trapping of ICC_DIR_EL1 on GICv5 hosts emulating GICv3 for the
guest
- Preliminary work for guest GICv5 support
- A bunch of debugfs fixes, removing pointless custom iterators
stored in guest data structures
- A small set of FPSIMD cleanups
- Selftest fixes addressing the incorrect alignment of page
allocation
- Other assorted low-impact fixes and spelling fixes
RISC-V:
- Fixes for issues discoverd by KVM API fuzzing in
kvm_riscv_aia_imsic_has_attr(), kvm_riscv_aia_imsic_rw_attr(), and
kvm_riscv_vcpu_aia_imsic_update()
- Allow Zalasr, Zilsd and Zclsd extensions for Guest/VM
- Transparent huge page support for hypervisor page tables
- Adjust the number of available guest irq files based on MMIO
register sizes found in the device tree or the ACPI tables
- Add RISC-V specific paging modes to KVM selftests
- Detect paging mode at runtime for selftests
s390:
- Performance improvement for vSIE (aka nested virtualization)
- Completely new memory management. s390 was a special snowflake that
enlisted help from the architecture's page table management to
build hypervisor page tables, in particular enabling sharing the
last level of page tables. This however was a lot of code (~3K
lines) in order to support KVM, and also blocked several features.
The biggest advantages is that the page size of userspace is
completely independent of the page size used by the guest:
userspace can mix normal pages, THPs and hugetlbfs as it sees fit,
and in fact transparent hugepages were not possible before. It's
also now possible to have nested guests and guests with huge pages
running on the same host
- Maintainership change for s390 vfio-pci
- Small quality of life improvement for protected guests
x86:
- Add support for giving the guest full ownership of PMU hardware
(contexted switched around the fastpath run loop) and allowing
direct access to data MSRs and PMCs (restricted by the vPMU model).
KVM still intercepts access to control registers, e.g. to enforce
event filtering and to prevent the guest from profiling sensitive
host state. This is more accurate, since it has no risk of
contention and thus dropped events, and also has significantly less
overhead.

mm/page_alloc: clear page->private in free_pages_prepare()
Several subsystems (slub, shmem, ttm, etc.) use page->private but don't
clear it before freeing pages. When these pages are later allocated as
high-order pages and split via split_page(), tail pages retain stale
page->private values.
This causes a use-after-free in the swap subsystem. The swap code uses
page->private to track swap count continuations, assuming freshly
allocated pages have page->private == 0. When stale values are present,
swap_count_continued() incorrectly assumes the continuation list is valid
and iterates over uninitialized page->lru containing LIST_POISON values,
causing a crash:
KASAN: maybe wild-memory-access in range [0xdead000000000100-0xdead000000000107]
RIP: 0010:__do_sys_swapoff+0x1151/0x1860
Fix this by clearing page->private in free_pages_prepare(), ensuring all
freed pages have clean state regardless of previous use.

mm: rmap: support batched unmapping for file large folios
Similar to folio_referenced_one(), we can apply batched unmapping for file large folios to optimize the performance of file folios reclamation. Barry previously implemented batched unmapping for lazyfree anonymous large folios[1] and did not further optimize anonymous large folios or file-backed large folios at that stage. As for file-backed large folios, the batched unmapping support is relatively straightforward, as we only need to clear the consecutive (present) PTE entries for file-backed large folios. Note that it's not ready to support batched unmapping for uffd case, so let's still fallback to per-page unmapping for the uffd case. Performance testing: Allocate 10G clean file-backed folios by mmap() in a memory cgroup, and try to reclaim 8G file-backed folios via the memory.reclaim interface. I can observe 75% performance improvement on my Arm64 32-core server (and 50%+ improvement on my X86 machine) with this patch.

mm: rmap: support batched checks of the references for large folios
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 performance hotspot. 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.

mm: make vm_area_desc utilise vma_flags_t only
Now we have eliminated all uses of vm_area_desc->vm_flags, eliminate this field, and have mmap_prepare users utilise the vma_flags_t vm_area_desc->vma_flags field only. As part of this change we alter is_shared_maywrite() to accept a vma_flags_t parameter, and introduce is_shared_maywrite_vm_flags() for use with legacy vm_flags_t flags. We also update struct mmap_state to add a union between vma_flags and vm_flags temporarily until the mmap logic is also converted to using vma_flags_t. Also update the VMA userland tests to reflect this change.

mm/vma: use unmap_desc in exit_mmap() and vms_clear_ptes()
Convert vms_clear_ptes() to use unmap_desc to call unmap_vmas() instead of the large argument list. The UNMAP_STATE() cannot be used because the vma iterator in the vms does not point to the correct maple state (mas_detach), and the tree_end will be set incorrectly. Setting up the arguments manually avoids setting the struct up incorrectly and doing extra work to get the correct pagetable range. exit_mmap() also calls unmap_vmas() with many arguments. Using the unmap_all_init() function to set the unmap descriptor for all vmas makes this a bit easier to read. Update to the vma test code is necessary to ensure testing continues to function.

mm: change dup_mmap() recovery
When the dup_mmap() fails during the vma duplication or setup, don't write the XA_ZERO entry in the vma tree. Instead, destroy the tree and free the new resources, leaving an empty vma tree. Using XA_ZERO introduced races where the vma could be found between dup_mmap() dropping all locks and exit_mmap() taking the locks. The race can occur because the mm can be reached through the other trees via successfully copied vmas and other methods such as the swapoff code. XA_ZERO was marking the location to stop vma removal and pagetable freeing. The newly created arguments to the unmap_vmas() and free_pgtables() serve this function. Replacing the XA_ZERO entry use with the new argument list also means the checks for xa_is_zero() are no longer necessary so these are also removed.

mm: relocate the page table ceiling and floor definitions
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.

mm: folio_zero_user: open code range computation in folio_zero_user()
riscv64-gcc-linux-gnu (v8.5) reports a compile time assert in:
r[2] = DEFINE_RANGE(clamp_t(s64, fault_idx - radius, pg.start, pg.end),
clamp_t(s64, fault_idx + radius, pg.start, pg.end));
where it decides that pg.start > pg.end in:
clamp_t(s64, fault_idx + radius, pg.start, pg.end));
where pg comes from:
const struct range pg = DEFINE_RANGE(0, folio_nr_pages(folio) - 1);
That does not seem like it could be true. Even for pg.start == pg.end,
we would need folio_test_large() to evaluate to false at compile time:
static inline unsigned long folio_nr_pages(const struct folio *folio)
{
if (!folio_test_large(folio))
return 1;
return folio_large_nr_pages(folio);
}
Workaround by open coding the range computation. Also, simplify the type
declarations for the relevant variables.

mm/vmscan: select the closest preferred node in demote_folio_list()
The preferred demotion node (migration_target_control.nid) should be the one closest to the source node to minimize migration latency. Currently, a discrepancy exists where demote_folio_list() randomly selects an allowed node if the preferred node from next_demotion_node() is not set in mems_effective. To address it, update next_demotion_node() to select a preferred target against allowed nodes; and to return the closest demotion target if all preferred nodes are not in mems_effective via next_demotion_node(). It ensures that the preferred demotion target is consistently the closest available node to the source node.

mm/vmscan: fix demotion targets checks in reclaim/demotion
Patch series "mm/vmscan: fix demotion targets checks in reclaim/demotion", v9. This patch series addresses two issues in demote_folio_list(), can_demote(), and next_demotion_node() in reclaim/demotion. 1. demote_folio_list() and can_demote() do not correctly check demotion target against cpuset.mems_effective, which will cause (a) pages to be demoted to not-allowed nodes and (b) pages fail demotion even if the system still has allowed demotion nodes. Patch 1 fixes this bug by updating cpuset_node_allowed() and mem_cgroup_node_allowed() to return effective_mems, allowing directly logic-and operation against demotion targets. 2. next_demotion_node() returns a preferred demotion target, but it does not check the node against allowed nodes. Patch 2 ensures that next_demotion_node() filters against the allowed node mask and selects the closest demotion target to the source node. This patch (of 2): Fix two bugs in demote_folio_list() and can_demote() due to incorrect demotion target checks against cpuset.mems_effective in reclaim/demotion. Commit |
