Introduce a variable swap_migration_ad_supported to cache whether the arch
supports swap migration A/D bits.
Here one thing to mention is that SWP_MIG_TOTAL_BITS will internally
reference the other macro MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS, which is a function call on
x86 (constant on all the rest of archs).
It's safe to reference it in swapfile_init() because when reaching here
we're already during initcalls level 4 so we must have initialized 5-level
pgtable for x86_64 (right after early_identify_cpu() finishes).
- start_kernel
- setup_arch
- early_cpu_init
- get_cpu_cap --> fetch from CPUID (including X86_FEATURE_LA57)
- early_identify_cpu --> clear X86_FEATURE_LA57 (if early lvl5 not enabled (USE_EARLY_PGTABLE_L5))
- arch_call_rest_init
- rest_init
- kernel_init
- kernel_init_freeable
- do_basic_setup
- do_initcalls --> calls swapfile_init() (initcall level 4)
This should slightly speed up the migration swap entry handlings.

We used to have swapfile_maximum_size() fetching a maximum value of
swapfile size per-arch.
As the caller of max_swapfile_size() grows, this patch introduce a
variable "swapfile_maximum_size" and cache the value of old
max_swapfile_size(), so that we don't need to calculate the value every
time.
Caching the value in swapfile_init() is safe because when reaching the
phase we should have initialized all the relevant information. Here the
major arch to take care of is x86, which defines the max swapfile size
based on L1TF mitigation.
Here both X86_BUG_L1TF or l1tf_mitigation should have been setup properly
when reaching swapfile_init(). As a reference, the code path looks like
this for x86:
- start_kernel
- setup_arch
- early_cpu_init
- early_identify_cpu --> setup X86_BUG_L1TF
- parse_early_param
- l1tf_cmdline --> set l1tf_mitigation
- check_bugs
- l1tf_select_mitigation --> set l1tf_mitigation
- arch_call_rest_init
- rest_init
- kernel_init
- kernel_init_freeable
- do_basic_setup
- do_initcalls --> calls swapfile_init() (initcall level 4)
The swapfile size only depends on swp pte format on non-x86 archs, so
caching it is safe too.
Since at it, rename max_swapfile_size() to arch_max_swapfile_size()
because arch can define its own function, so it's more straightforward to
have "arch_" as its prefix. At the meantime, export swapfile_maximum_size
to replace the old usages of max_swapfile_size().

Patch series "A few fixup patches for mm", v4.
This series contains a few patches to avoid mapping random data if swap
read fails and fix lost swap bits in unuse_pte. Also we free hwpoison and
swapin error entry in madvise_free_pte_range and so on. More details can
be found in the respective changelogs.
This patch (of 5):
There is a bug in unuse_pte(): when swap page happens to be unreadable,
page filled with random data is mapped into user address space. In case
of error, a special swap entry indicating swap read fails is set to the
page table. So the swapcache page can be freed and the user won't end up
with a permanently mounted swap because a sector is bad. And if the page
is accessed later, the user process will be killed so that corrupted data
is never consumed. On the other hand, if the page is never accessed, the
user won't even notice it.

swap currently uses ->readpage to read swap pages. This can only request
one page at a time from the filesystem, which is not most efficient.
swap uses ->direct_IO for writes which while this is adequate is an
inappropriate over-loading. ->direct_IO may need to had handle allocate
space for holes or other details that are not relevant for swap.
So this patch introduces a new address_space operation: ->swap_rw. In
this patch it is used for reads, and a subsequent patch will switch writes
to use it.
No filesystem yet supports ->swap_rw, but that is not a problem because
no filesystem actually works with filesystem-based swap.
Only two filesystems set SWP_FS_OPS:
- cifs sets the flag, but ->direct_IO always fails so swap cannot work.
- nfs sets the flag, but ->direct_IO calls generic_write_checks()
which has failed on swap files for several releases.
To ensure that a NULL ->swap_rw isn't called, ->activate_swap() for both
NFS and cifs are changed to fail if ->swap_rw is not set. This can be
removed if/when the function is added.
Future patches will restore swap-over-NFS functionality.
To submit an async read with ->swap_rw() we need to allocate a structure
to hold the kiocb and other details. swap_readpage() cannot handle
transient failure, so we create a mempool to provide the structures.

If a filesystem wishes to handle all swap IO itself (via ->direct_IO and
->readpage), rather than just providing devices addresses for
submit_bio(), SWP_FS_OPS must be set.
Currently the protocol for setting this it to have ->swap_activate return
zero. In that case SWP_FS_OPS is set, and add_swap_extent() is called for
the entire file.
This is a little clumsy as different return values for ->swap_activate
have quite different meanings, and it makes it hard to search for which
filesystems require SWP_FS_OPS to be set.
So remove the special meaning of a zero return, and require the filesystem
to set SWP_FS_OPS if it so desires, and to always call add_swap_extent()
as required.
Currently only NFS and CIFS return zero for add_swap_extent().

Patch series "MM changes to improve swap-over-NFS support".
Assorted improvements for swap-via-filesystem.
This is a resend of these patches, rebased on current HEAD. The only
substantial changes is that swap_dirty_folio has replaced
swap_set_page_dirty.
Currently swap-via-fs (SWP_FS_OPS) doesn't work for any filesystem. It
has previously worked for NFS but that broke a few releases back. This
series changes to use a new ->swap_rw rather than ->readpage and
->direct_IO. It also makes other improvements.
There is a companion series already in linux-next which fixes various
issues with NFS. Once both series land, a final patch is needed which
changes NFS over to use ->swap_rw.
This patch (of 10):
Many functions declared in include/linux/swap.h are only used within mm/
Create a new "mm/swap.h" and move some of these declarations there.

Patch series "mm: COW fixes part 3: reliable GUP R/W FOLL_GET of anonymous pages", v2.
This series fixes memory corruptions when a GUP R/W reference (FOLL_WRITE
| FOLL_GET) was taken on an anonymous page and COW logic fails to detect
exclusivity of the page to then replacing the anonymous page by a copy in
the page table: The GUP reference lost synchronicity with the pages mapped
into the page tables. This series focuses on x86, arm64, s390x and
ppc64/book3s -- other architectures are fairly easy to support by
implementing __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SWP_EXCLUSIVE.
This primarily fixes the O_DIRECT memory corruptions that can happen on
concurrent swapout, whereby we lose DMA reads to a page (modifying the
user page by writing to it).
O_DIRECT currently uses FOLL_GET for short-term (!FOLL_LONGTERM) DMA
from/to a user page. In the long run, we want to convert it to properly
use FOLL_PIN, and John is working on it, but that might take a while and
might not be easy to backport. In the meantime, let's restore what used
to work before we started modifying our COW logic: make R/W FOLL_GET
references reliable as long as there is no fork() after GUP involved.
This is just the natural follow-up of part 2, that will also further
reduce "wrong COW" on the swapin path, for example, when we cannot remove
a page from the swapcache due to concurrent writeback, or if we have two
threads faulting on the same swapped-out page. Fixing O_DIRECT is just a
nice side-product
This issue, including other related COW issues, has been summarized in [3]
under 2):
"
2. Intra Process Memory Corruptions due to Wrong COW (FOLL_GET)
It was discovered that we can create a memory corruption by reading a
file via O_DIRECT to a part (e.g., first 512 bytes) of a page,
concurrently writing to an unrelated part (e.g., last byte) of the same
page, and concurrently write-protecting the page via clear_refs
SOFTDIRTY tracking [6].
For the reproducer, the issue is that O_DIRECT grabs a reference of the
target page (via FOLL_GET) and clear_refs write-protects the relevant
page table entry. On successive write access to the page from the
process itself, we wrongly COW the page when resolving the write fault,
resulting in a loss of synchronicity and consequently a memory corruption.
While some people might think that using clear_refs in this combination
is a corner cases, it turns out to be a more generic problem unfortunately.
For example, it was just recently discovered that we can similarly
create a memory corruption without clear_refs, simply by concurrently
swapping out the buffer pages [7]. Note that we nowadays even use the
swap infrastructure in Linux without an actual swap disk/partition: the
prime example is zram which is enabled as default under Fedora [10].
The root issue is that a write-fault on a page that has additional
references results in a COW and thereby a loss of synchronicity
and consequently a memory corruption if two parties believe they are
referencing the same page.
"
We don't particularly care about R/O FOLL_GET references: they were never
reliable and O_DIRECT doesn't expect to observe modifications from a page
after DMA was started.
Note that:
* this only fixes the issue on x86, arm64, s390x and ppc64/book3s
("enterprise architectures"). Other architectures have to implement
__HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SWP_EXCLUSIVE to achieve the same.
* this does *not * consider any kind of fork() after taking the reference:
fork() after GUP never worked reliably with FOLL_GET.
* Not losing PG_anon_exclusive during swapout was the last remaining
piece. KSM already makes sure that there are no other references on
a page before considering it for sharing. Page migration maintains
PG_anon_exclusive and simply fails when there are additional references
(freezing the refcount fails). Only swapout code dropped the
PG_anon_exclusive flag because it requires more work to remember +
restore it.
With this series in place, most COW issues of [3] are fixed on said
architectures. Other architectures can implement
__HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SWP_EXCLUSIVE fairly easily.

This patch (of 8):
Currently, we clear PG_anon_exclusive in try_to_unmap() and forget about
it. We do this, to keep fork() logic on swap entries easy and efficient:
for example, if we wouldn't clear it when unmapping, we'd have to lookup
the page in the swapcache for each and every swap entry during fork() and
clear PG_anon_exclusive if set.
Instead, we want to store that information directly in the swap pte,
protected by the page table lock, similarly to how we handle
SWP_MIGRATION_READ_EXCLUSIVE for migration entries. However, for actual
swap entries, we don't want to mess with the swap type (e.g., still one
bit) because it overcomplicates swap code.
In try_to_unmap(), we already reject to unmap in case the page might be
pinned, because we must not lose PG_anon_exclusive on pinned pages ever.
Checking if there are other unexpected references reliably *before*
completely unmapping a page is unfortunately not really possible: THP
heavily overcomplicate the situation. Once fully unmapped it's easier --
we, for example, make sure that there are no unexpected references *after*
unmapping a page before starting writeback on that page.
So, we currently might end up unmapping a page and clearing
PG_anon_exclusive if that page has additional references, for example, due
to a FOLL_GET.
do_swap_page() has to re-determine if a page is exclusive, which will
easily fail if there are other references on a page, most prominently GUP
references via FOLL_GET. This can currently result in memory corruptions
when taking a FOLL_GET | FOLL_WRITE reference on a page even when fork()
is never involved: try_to_unmap() will succeed, and when refaulting the
page, it cannot be marked exclusive and will get replaced by a copy in the
page tables on the next write access, resulting in writes via the GUP
reference to the page being lost.
In an ideal world, everybody that uses GUP and wants to modify page
content, such as O_DIRECT, would properly use FOLL_PIN. However, that
conversion will take a while. It's easier to fix what used to work in the
past (FOLL_GET | FOLL_WRITE) remembering PG_anon_exclusive. In addition,
by remembering PG_anon_exclusive we can further reduce unnecessary COW in
some cases, so it's the natural thing to do.
So let's transfer the PG_anon_exclusive information to the swap pte and
store it via an architecture-dependant pte bit; use that information when
restoring the swap pte in do_swap_page() and unuse_pte(). During fork(),
we simply have to clear the pte bit and are done.
Of course, there is one corner case to handle: swap backends that don't
support concurrent page modifications while the page is under writeback.
Special case these, and drop the exclusive marker. Add a comment why that
is just fine (also, reuse_swap_page() would have done the same in the
past).
In the future, we'll hopefully have all architectures support
__HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SWP_EXCLUSIVE, such that we can get rid of the empty stubs
and the define completely. Then, we can also convert
SWP_MIGRATION_READ_EXCLUSIVE. For architectures it's fairly easy to
support: either simply use a yet unused pte bit that can be used for swap
entries, steal one from the arch type bits if they exceed 5, or steal one
from the offset bits.
Note: R/O FOLL_GET references were never really reliable, especially when
taking one on a shared page and then writing to the page (e.g., GUP after
fork()). FOLL_GET, including R/W references, were never really reliable
once fork was involved (e.g., GUP before fork(), GUP during fork()). KSM
steps back in case it stumbles over unexpected references and is,
therefore, fine.

The basic question we would like to have a reliable and efficient answer
to is: is this anonymous page exclusive to a single process or might it be
shared? We need that information for ordinary/single pages, hugetlb
pages, and possibly each subpage of a THP.
Introduce a way to mark an anonymous page as exclusive, with the ultimate
goal of teaching our COW logic to not do "wrong COWs", whereby GUP pins
lose consistency with the pages mapped into the page table, resulting in
reported memory corruptions.
Most pageflags already have semantics for anonymous pages, however,
PG_mappedtodisk should never apply to pages in the swapcache, so let's
reuse that flag.
As PG_has_hwpoisoned also uses that flag on the second tail page of a
compound page, convert it to PG_error instead, which is marked as
PF_NO_TAIL, so never used for tail pages.
Use custom page flag modification functions such that we can do additional
sanity checks. The semantics we'll put into some kernel doc in the future
are:
"
PG_anon_exclusive is *usually* only expressive in combination with a
page table entry. Depending on the page table entry type it might
store the following information:
Is what's mapped via this page table entry exclusive to the
single process and can be mapped writable without further
checks? If not, it might be shared and we might have to COW.
For now, we only expect PTE-mapped THPs to make use of
PG_anon_exclusive in subpages. For other anonymous compound
folios (i.e., hugetlb), only the head page is logically mapped and
holds this information.
For example, an exclusive, PMD-mapped THP only has PG_anon_exclusive
set on the head page. When replacing the PMD by a page table full
of PTEs, PG_anon_exclusive, if set on the head page, will be set on
all tail pages accordingly. Note that converting from a PTE-mapping
to a PMD mapping using the same compound page is currently not
possible and consequently doesn't require care.
If GUP wants to take a reliable pin (FOLL_PIN) on an anonymous page,
it should only pin if the relevant PG_anon_exclusive is set. In that
case, the pin will be fully reliable and stay consistent with the pages
mapped into the page table, as the bit cannot get cleared (e.g., by
fork(), KSM) while the page is pinned. For anonymous pages that
are mapped R/W, PG_anon_exclusive can be assumed to always be set
because such pages cannot possibly be shared.
The page table lock protecting the page table entry is the primary
synchronization mechanism for PG_anon_exclusive; GUP-fast that does
not take the PT lock needs special care when trying to clear the
flag.
Page table entry types and PG_anon_exclusive:
* Present: PG_anon_exclusive applies.
* Swap: the information is lost. PG_anon_exclusive was cleared.
* Migration: the entry holds this information instead.
PG_anon_exclusive was cleared.
* Device private: PG_anon_exclusive applies.
* Device exclusive: PG_anon_exclusive applies.
* HW Poison: PG_anon_exclusive is stale and not changed.
If the page may be pinned (FOLL_PIN), clearing PG_anon_exclusive is
not allowed and the flag will stick around until the page is freed
and folio->mapping is cleared.
"
We won't be clearing PG_anon_exclusive on destructive unmapping (i.e.,
zapping) of page table entries, page freeing code will handle that when
also invalidate page->mapping to not indicate PageAnon() anymore. Letting
information about exclusivity stick around will be an important property
when adding sanity checks to unpinning code.
Note that we properly clear the flag in free_pages_prepare() via
PAGE_FLAGS_CHECK_AT_PREP for each individual subpage of a compound page,
so there is no need to manually clear the flag.

New anonymous pages are always mapped natively: only THP/khugepaged code
maps a new compound anonymous page and passes "true". Otherwise, we're
just dealing with simple, non-compound pages.
Let's give the interface clearer semantics and document these. Remove the

... and instead convert page_add_anon_rmap() to accept flags.
Passing flags instead of bools is usually nicer either way, and we want to
more often also pass RMAP_EXCLUSIVE in follow up patches when detecting
that an anonymous page is exclusive: for example, when restoring an
anonymous page from a writable migration entry.
This is a preparation for marking an anonymous page inside
page_add_anon_rmap() as exclusive when RMAP_EXCLUSIVE is passed.

Just use a non-zero max_discard_sectors as an indicator for discard
support, similar to what is done for write zeroes.
The only places where needs special attention is the RAID5 driver,
which must clear discard support for security reasons by default,
even if the default stacking rules would allow for it.

Userfaultfd is supposed to provide the full address (i.e., unmasked) of
the faulting access back to userspace. However, that is not the case for
quite some time.
Even running "userfaultfd_demo" from the userfaultfd man page provides the
wrong output (and contradicts the man page). Notice that
"UFFD_EVENT_PAGEFAULT event" shows the masked address (7fc5e30b3000) and
not the first read address (0x7fc5e30b300f).
Address returned by mmap() = 0x7fc5e30b3000
fault_handler_thread():
poll() returns: nready = 1; POLLIN = 1; POLLERR = 0
UFFD_EVENT_PAGEFAULT event: flags = 0; address = 7fc5e30b3000
(uffdio_copy.copy returned 4096)
Read address 0x7fc5e30b300f in main(): A
Read address 0x7fc5e30b340f in main(): A
Read address 0x7fc5e30b380f in main(): A
Read address 0x7fc5e30b3c0f in main(): A
The exact address is useful for various reasons and specifically for
prefetching decisions. If it is known that the memory is populated by
certain objects whose size is not page-aligned, then based on the faulting
address, the uffd-monitor can decide whether to prefetch and prefault the
adjacent page.
This bug has been for quite some time in the kernel: since commit
1a29d85eb0 ("mm: use vmf->address instead of of vmf->virtual_address")
vmf->virtual_address"), which dates back to 2016. A concern has been
raised that existing userspace application might rely on the old/wrong
behavior in which the address is masked. Therefore, it was suggested to
provide the masked address unless the user explicitly asks for the exact
address.
Add a new userfaultfd feature UFFD_FEATURE_EXACT_ADDRESS to direct
userfaultfd to provide the exact address. Add a new "real_address" field
to vmf to hold the unmasked address. Provide the address to userspace
accordingly.
Initialize real_address in various code-paths to be consistent with
address, even when it is not used, to be on the safe side.
[namit@vmware.com: initialize real_address on all code paths, per Jan]
