Pull hmm updates from Jason Gunthorpe:
"This is another round of bug fixing and cleanup. This time the focus
is on the driver pattern to use mmu notifiers to monitor a VA range.
This code is lifted out of many drivers and hmm_mirror directly into
the mmu_notifier core and written using the best ideas from all the
driver implementations.
This removes many bugs from the drivers and has a very pleasing
diffstat. More drivers can still be converted, but that is for another
cycle.
- A shared branch with RDMA reworking the RDMA ODP implementation
- New mmu_interval_notifier API. This is focused on the use case of
monitoring a VA and simplifies the process for drivers
- A common seq-count locking scheme built into the
mmu_interval_notifier API usable by drivers that call
get_user_pages() or hmm_range_fault() with the VA range
- Conversion of mlx5 ODP, hfi1, radeon, nouveau, AMD GPU, and Xen
GntDev drivers to the new API. This deletes a lot of wonky driver
code.
- Two improvements for hmm_range_fault(), from testing done by Ralph"

mm/mmu_notifier: define the header pre-processor parts even if disabled
mm/hmm: allow snapshot of the special zero page
Of the 13 users of mmu_notifiers, 8 of them use only
invalidate_range_start/end() and immediately intersect the
mmu_notifier_range with some kind of internal list of VAs. 4 use an
interval tree (i915_gem, radeon_mn, umem_odp, hfi1). 4 use a linked list
of some kind (scif_dma, vhost, gntdev, hmm)
And the remaining 5 either don't use invalidate_range_start() or do some
special thing with it.
It turns out that building a correct scheme with an interval tree is
pretty complicated, particularly if the use case is synchronizing against
another thread doing get_user_pages(). Many of these implementations have
various subtle and difficult to fix races.
This approach puts the interval tree as common code at the top of the mmu
notifier call tree and implements a shareable locking scheme.
It includes:
- An interval tree tracking VA ranges, with per-range callbacks
- A read/write locking scheme for the interval tree that avoids
sleeping in the notifier path (for OOM killer)
- A sequence counter based collision-retry locking scheme to tell
device page fault that a VA range is being concurrently invalidated.
This is based on various ideas:
- hmm accumulates invalidated VA ranges and releases them when all
invalidates are done, via active_invalidate_ranges count.
This approach avoids having to intersect the interval tree twice (as
umem_odp does) at the potential cost of a longer device page fault.
- kvm/umem_odp use a sequence counter to drive the collision retry,
via invalidate_seq
- a deferred work todo list on unlock scheme like RTNL, via deferred_list.
This makes adding/removing interval tree members more deterministic
- seqlock, except this version makes the seqlock idea multi-holder on the
write side by protecting it with active_invalidate_ranges and a spinlock
To minimize MM overhead when only the interval tree is being used, the
entire SRCU and hlist overheads are dropped using some simple
branches. Similarly the interval tree overhead is dropped when in hlist
mode.
The overhead from the mandatory spinlock is broadly the same as most of
existing users which already had a lock (or two) of some sort on the
invalidation path.

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

Patch series "mm: remove quicklist page table caches".
A while ago Nicholas proposed to remove quicklist page table caches [1].
I've rebased his patch on the curren upstream and switched ia64 and sh to
use generic versions of PTE allocation.
[1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20190711030339.20892-1-npiggin@gmail.com
This patch (of 3):
Remove page table allocator "quicklists". These have been around for a
long time, but have not got much traction in the last decade and are only
used on ia64 and sh architectures.
The numbers in the initial commit look interesting but probably don't
apply anymore. If anybody wants to resurrect this it's in the git
history, but it's unhelpful to have this code and divergent allocator
behaviour for minor archs.
Also it might be better to instead make more general improvements to page
allocator if this is still so slow.

"Improvements and bug fixes for the hmm interface in the kernel:
- Improve clarity, locking and APIs related to the 'hmm mirror'

make the merge window cut off.

- refactor into devm_request_free_mem_region() to manage
DEVICE_PRIVATE resource reservations
- refactor duplicative driver code into the core dev_pagemap

Add 2 new Kconfig variables that are not used by anyone. I check that
various make ARCH=somearch allmodconfig do work and do not complain. This
new Kconfig needs to be added first so that device drivers that depend on
HMM can be updated.
Once drivers are updated then I can update the HMM Kconfig to depend on
this new Kconfig in a followup patch.
This is about solving Kconfig for HMM given that device driver are
going through their own tree we want to avoid changing them from the mm
tree. So plan is:
1 - Kernel release N add the new Kconfig to mm/Kconfig (this patch)
2 - Kernel release N+1 update driver to depend on new Kconfig ie
stop using ARCH_HASH_HMM and start using ARCH_HAS_HMM_MIRROR
and ARCH_HAS_HMM_DEVICE (one or the other or both depending
on the driver)
3 - Kernel release N+2 remove ARCH_HASH_HMM and do final Kconfig
update in mm/Kconfig

'default n' is the default value for any bool or tristate Kconfig
setting so there is no need to write it explicitly.
Also since commit f467c5640c ("kconfig: only write '# CONFIG_FOO
is not set' for visible symbols") the Kconfig behavior is the same
regardless of 'default n' being present or not:
...
One side effect of (and the main motivation for) this change is making
the following two definitions behave exactly the same:
config FOO
bool
config FOO
bool
default n
With this change, neither of these will generate a
'# CONFIG_FOO is not set' line (assuming FOO isn't selected/implied).
That might make it clearer to people that a bare 'default n' is
redundant.

The deferred memory initialization relies on section definitions, e.g
PAGES_PER_SECTION, that are only available when CONFIG_SPARSEMEM=y on
most architectures.
Initially DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT depended on explicit
ARCH_SUPPORTS_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT configuration option, but since
the commit 2e3ca40f03 ("mm: relax deferred struct page
requirements") this requirement was relaxed and now it is possible to
enable DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT on architectures that support
DISCONTINGMEM and NO_BOOTMEM which causes build failures.
For instance, setting SMP=y and DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT=y on arc
causes the following build failure:

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
"This adds a user for the new 'bytes-remaining' updates to
memcpy_mcsafe() that you already received through Ingo via the
x86-dax- for-linus pull.
Not included here, but still targeting this cycle, is support for
handling memory media errors (poison) consumed via userspace dax
mappings.
Summary:
- DAX broke a fundamental assumption of truncate of file mapped
pages. The truncate path assumed that it is safe to disconnect a
pinned page from a file and let the filesystem reclaim the physical
block. With DAX the page is equivalent to the filesystem block.
Introduce dax_layout_busy_page() to enable filesystems to wait for
pinned DAX pages to be released. Without this wait a filesystem
could allocate blocks under active device-DMA to a new file.
- DAX arranges for the block layer to be bypassed and uses
dax_direct_access() + copy_to_iter() to satisfy read(2) calls.
However, the memcpy_mcsafe() facility is available through the pmem
block driver. In order to safely handle media errors, via the DAX
block-layer bypass, introduce copy_to_iter_mcsafe().
- Fix cache management policy relative to the ACPI NFIT Platform

are not necessary. The table indicates whether CPU caches are

In preparation for fixing dax-dma-vs-unmap issues, filesystems need to
be able to rely on the fact that they will get wakeups on dev_pagemap
page-idle events. Introduce MEMORY_DEVICE_FS_DAX and
generic_dax_page_free() as common indicator / infrastructure for dax
filesytems to require. With this change there are no users of the
MEMORY_DEVICE_HOST designation, so remove it.
The HMM sub-system extended dev_pagemap to arrange a callback when a
dev_pagemap managed page is freed. Since a dev_pagemap page is free /
idle when its reference count is 1 it requires an additional branch to
check the page-type at put_page() time. Given put_page() is a hot-path
we do not want to incur that check if HMM is not in use, so a static
branch is used to avoid that overhead when not necessary.
Now, the FS_DAX implementation wants to reuse this mechanism for
receiving dev_pagemap ->page_free() callbacks. Rework the HMM-specific
static-key into a generic mechanism that either HMM or FS_DAX code paths
can enable.
For ARCH=um builds, and any other arch that lacks ZONE_DEVICE support,
care must be taken to compile out the DEV_PAGEMAP_OPS infrastructure.
However, we still need to support FS_DAX in the FS_DAX_LIMITED case
implemented by the s390/dcssblk driver.

It is unsafe to do virtual to physical translations before mm_init() is
called if struct page is needed in order to determine the memory section
number (see SECTION_IN_PAGE_FLAGS). This is because only in mm_init()
we initialize struct pages for all the allocated memory when deferred
struct pages are used.
My recent fix in commit c9e97a1997 ("mm: initialize pages on demand
during boot") exposed this problem, because it greatly reduced number of
pages that are initialized before mm_init(), but the problem existed
even before my fix, as Fengguang Wu found.
Below is a more detailed explanation of the problem.
We initialize struct pages in four places:
1. Early in boot a small set of struct pages is initialized to fill the
first section, and lower zones.
2. During mm_init() we initialize "struct pages" for all the memory that
is allocated, i.e reserved in memblock.
3. Using on-demand logic when pages are allocated after mm_init call
(when memblock is finished)
4. After smp_init() when the rest free deferred pages are initialized.
The problem occurs if we try to do va to phys translation of a memory
between steps 1 and 2. Because we have not yet initialized struct pages
for all the reserved pages, it is inherently unsafe to do va to phys if
the translation itself requires access of "struct page" as in case of
this combination: CONFIG_SPARSE && !CONFIG_SPARSE_VMEMMAP
The following path exposes the problem:
start_kernel()
trap_init()
setup_cpu_entry_areas()
setup_cpu_entry_area(cpu)
get_cpu_gdt_paddr(cpu)
per_cpu_ptr_to_phys(addr)
pcpu_addr_to_page(addr)
virt_to_page(addr)
pfn_to_page(__pa(addr) >> PAGE_SHIFT)
We disable this path by not allowing NEED_PER_CPU_KM with deferred
struct pages feature.

Several documents in Documentation/vm fit quite well into the "admin/user
guide" category. The documents that don't overload the reader with lots of
implementation details and provide coherent description of certain feature
can be moved to Documentation/admin-guide/mm.

Mike Rapoport says:
These patches convert files in Documentation/vm to ReST format, add an
initial index and link it to the top level documentation.
There are no contents changes in the documentation, except few spelling
fixes. The relatively large diffstat stems from the indentation and
paragraph wrapping changes.
I've tried to keep the formatting as consistent as possible, but I could
miss some places that needed markup and add some markup where it was not
necessary.
