Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- Sumanth Korikkar has taught s390 to allocate hotplug-time page frames
from hotplugged memory rather than only from main memory. Series
"implement "memmap on memory" feature on s390".
- More folio conversions from Matthew Wilcox in the series
"Convert memcontrol charge moving to use folios"
"mm: convert mm counter to take a folio"
- Chengming Zhou has optimized zswap's rbtree locking, providing
significant reductions in system time and modest but measurable
reductions in overall runtimes. The series is "mm/zswap: optimize the
scalability of zswap rb-tree".
- Chengming Zhou has also provided the series "mm/zswap: optimize zswap
lru list" which provides measurable runtime benefits in some
swap-intensive situations.
- And Chengming Zhou further optimizes zswap in the series "mm/zswap:
optimize for dynamic zswap_pools". Measured improvements are modest.
- zswap cleanups and simplifications from Yosry Ahmed in the series
"mm: zswap: simplify zswap_swapoff()".
- In the series "Add DAX ABI for memmap_on_memory", Vishal Verma has
contributed several DAX cleanups as well as adding a sysfs tunable to
control the memmap_on_memory setting when the dax device is
hotplugged as system memory.
- Johannes Weiner has added the large series "mm: zswap: cleanups",
which does that.
- More DAMON work from SeongJae Park in the series
"mm/damon: make DAMON debugfs interface deprecation unignorable"
"selftests/damon: add more tests for core functionalities and corner cases"
"Docs/mm/damon: misc readability improvements"
"mm/damon: let DAMOS feeds and tame/auto-tune itself"
- In the series "mm/mempolicy: weighted interleave mempolicy and sysfs
extension" Rakie Kim has developed a new mempolicy interleaving
policy wherein we allocate memory across nodes in a weighted fashion
rather than uniformly. This is beneficial in heterogeneous memory
environments appearing with CXL.
- Christophe Leroy has contributed some cleanup and consolidation work
against the ARM pagetable dumping code in the series "mm: ptdump:
Refactor CONFIG_DEBUG_WX and check_wx_pages debugfs attribute".
- Luis Chamberlain has added some additional xarray selftesting in the
series "test_xarray: advanced API multi-index tests".
- Muhammad Usama Anjum has reworked the selftest code to make its
human-readable output conform to the TAP ("Test Anything Protocol")
format. Amongst other things, this opens up the use of third-party
tools to parse and process out selftesting results.
- Ryan Roberts has added fork()-time PTE batching of THP ptes in the
series "mm/memory: optimize fork() with PTE-mapped THP". Mainly
targeted at arm64, this significantly speeds up fork() when the
process has a large number of pte-mapped folios.
- David Hildenbrand also gets in on the THP pte batching game in his
series "mm/memory: optimize unmap/zap with PTE-mapped THP". It
implements batching during munmap() and other pte teardown
situations. The microbenchmark improvements are nice.
- And in the series "Transparent Contiguous PTEs for User Mappings"
Ryan Roberts further utilizes arm's pte's contiguous bit ("contpte
mappings"). Kernel build times on arm64 improved nicely. Ryan's
series "Address some contpte nits" provides some followup work.
- In the series "mm/hugetlb: Restore the reservation" Breno Leitao has
fixed an obscure hugetlb race which was causing unnecessary page
faults. He has also added a reproducer under the selftest code.
- In the series "selftests/mm: Output cleanups for the compaction
test", Mark Brown did what the title claims.
- Kinsey Ho has added the series "mm/mglru: code cleanup and
refactoring".
- Even more zswap material from Nhat Pham. The series "fix and extend
zswap kselftests" does as claimed.
- In the series "Introduce cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() to fix DAX
regression" Mathieu Desnoyers has cleaned up and fixed rather a mess
in our handling of DAX on archiecctures which have virtually aliasing
data caches. The arm architecture is the main beneficiary.
- Lokesh Gidra's series "per-vma locks in userfaultfd" provides
dramatic improvements in worst-case mmap_lock hold times during
certain userfaultfd operations.
- Some page_owner enhancements and maintenance work from Oscar Salvador
in his series
"page_owner: print stacks and their outstanding allocations"
"page_owner: Fixup and cleanup"
- Uladzislau Rezki has contributed some vmalloc scalability
improvements in his series "Mitigate a vmap lock contention". It
realizes a 12x improvement for a certain microbenchmark.
- Some kexec/crash cleanup work from Baoquan He in the series "Split
crash out from kexec and clean up related config items".
- Some zsmalloc maintenance work from Chengming Zhou in the series
"mm/zsmalloc: fix and optimize objects/page migration"
"mm/zsmalloc: some cleanup for get/set_zspage_mapping()"
- Zi Yan has taught the MM to perform compaction on folios larger than
order=0. This a step along the path to implementaton of the merging
of large anonymous folios. The series is named "Enable >0 order folio
memory compaction".
- Christoph Hellwig has done quite a lot of cleanup work in the
pagecache writeback code in his series "convert write_cache_pages()
to an iterator".
- Some modest hugetlb cleanups and speedups in Vishal Moola's series
"Handle hugetlb faults under the VMA lock".
- Zi Yan has changed the page splitting code so we can split huge pages
into sizes other than order-0 to better utilize large folios. The
series is named "Split a folio to any lower order folios".
- David Hildenbrand has contributed the series "mm: remove
total_mapcount()", a cleanup.
- Matthew Wilcox has sought to improve the performance of bulk memory
freeing in his series "Rearrange batched folio freeing".
- Gang Li's series "hugetlb: parallelize hugetlb page init on boot"
provides large improvements in bootup times on large machines which
are configured to use large numbers of hugetlb pages.
- Matthew Wilcox's series "PageFlags cleanups" does that.
- Qi Zheng's series "minor fixes and supplement for ptdesc" does that
also. S390 is affected.
- Cleanups to our pagemap utility functions from Peter Xu in his series
"mm/treewide: Replace pXd_large() with pXd_leaf()".
- Nico Pache has fixed a few things with our hugepage selftests in his
series "selftests/mm: Improve Hugepage Test Handling in MM
Selftests".
- Also, of course, many singleton patches to many things. Please see
the individual changelogs for details.

The first argument of switch_mm_irqs_off() is unused by the x86
implementation. Make sure that x86 code never passes a non-NULL value to
make this clear. Update the only non violating caller, switch_mm().

Commit accf6b23d1e5a ("x86/mm: clarify "prev" usage in
switch_mm_irqs_off()") attempted to clarify x86's usage of the arguments
passed by generic code, specifically the "prev" argument the is unused by
x86. However, it could have done a better job with the comment above
switch_mm_irqs_off(). Rewrite this comment according to Dave Hansen's

In the x86 implementation of switch_mm_irqs_off(), we do not use the
"prev" argument passed in by the caller, we use exclusively use
"real_prev", which is cpu_tlbstate.loaded_mm. This is not obvious at the
first sight.
Furthermore, a comment describes a condition that happens when called with
prev == next, but this should not affect the function in any way since
prev is unused. Apparently, the comment is intended to clarify why we
don't rely on prev == next to decide whether we need to update CR3, but
again, it is not obvious. The comment also references the fact that
leave_mm() calls with prev == NULL and tsk == NULL, but this also
shouldn't matter because prev is unused and tsk is only used in one
function which has a NULL check.
Clarify things by renaming (prev -> unused) and (real_prev -> prev), also
move and rewrite the comment as an explanation for why we don't rely on
"prev" supplied by the caller in x86 code and use our own. Hopefully this
makes reading the code easier.

There are two main use cases for mmu notifiers. One is by KVM which uses
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start()/end() to manage a software TLB.
The other is to manage hardware TLBs which need to use the
invalidate_range() callback because HW can establish new TLB entries at
any time. Hence using start/end() can lead to memory corruption as these
callbacks happen too soon/late during page unmap.
mmu notifier users should therefore either use the start()/end() callbacks
or the invalidate_range() callbacks. To make this usage clearer rename
the invalidate_range() callback to arch_invalidate_secondary_tlbs() and
update documention.

The invalidate_range() is going to become an architecture specific mmu
notifier used to keep the TLB of secondary MMUs such as an IOMMU in sync
with the CPU page tables. Currently it is called from separate code paths
to the main CPU TLB invalidations. This can lead to a secondary TLB not
getting invalidated when required and makes it hard to reason about when
exactly the secondary TLB is invalidated.
To fix this move the notifier call to the architecture specific TLB
maintenance functions for architectures that have secondary MMUs requiring
explicit software invalidations.
This fixes a SMMU bug on ARM64. On ARM64 PTE permission upgrades require
a TLB invalidation. This invalidation is done by the architecture
specific ptep_set_access_flags() which calls flush_tlb_page() if required.
However this doesn't call the notifier resulting in infinite faults being
generated by devices using the SMMU if it has previously cached a
read-only PTE in it's TLB.
Moving the invalidations into the TLB invalidation functions ensures all
invalidations happen at the same time as the CPU invalidation. The
architecture specific flush_tlb_all() routines do not call the notifier as
none of the IOMMUs require this.

From: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com>
tl;dr: Replace a synthetic X86_FEATURE with a hardware X86_FEATURE
and check of existing per-cpu state.
== Background ==
There are three features in play here:
1. Good old Page Table Isolation (PTI)
2. Process Context IDentifiers (PCIDs) which allow entries from
multiple address spaces to be in the TLB at once.
3. Support for the "Invalidate PCID" (INVPCID) instruction,
specifically the "individual address" mode (aka. mode 0).
When all *three* of these are in place, INVPCID can and should be used
to flush out individual addresses in the PTI user address space.
But there's a wrinkle or two: First, this INVPCID mode is dependent on
CR4.PCIDE. Even if X86_FEATURE_INVPCID==1, the instruction may #GP
without setting up CR4. Second, TLB flushing is done very early, even
before CR4 is fully set up. That means even if PTI, PCID and INVPCID
are supported, there is *still* a window where INVPCID can #GP.
== Problem ==
The current code seems to work, but mostly by chance and there are a
bunch of ways it can go wrong. It's also somewhat hard to follow
since X86_FEATURE_INVPCID_SINGLE is set far away from its lone user.
== Solution ==
Make "INVPCID single" more robust and easier to follow by placing all
the logic in one place. Remove X86_FEATURE_INVPCID_SINGLE.
Make two explicit checks before using INVPCID:
1. Check that the system supports INVPCID itself (boot_cpu_has())
2. Then check the CR4.PCIDE shadow to ensures that the CPU
can safely use INVPCID for individual address invalidation.
The CR4 check *always* works and is not affected by any X86_FEATURE_*
twiddling or inconsistencies between the boot and secondary CPUs.
This has been tested on non-Meltdown hardware by using pti=on and
then flipping PCID and INVPCID support with qemu.
== Aside ==
How does this code even work today? By chance, I think. First, PTI
is initialized around the same time that the boot CPU sets
CR4.PCIDE=1. There are currently no TLB invalidations when PTI=1 but
CR4.PCIDE=0. That means that the X86_FEATURE_INVPCID_SINGLE check is
never even reached.
this_cpu_has() is also very nasty to use in this context because the
boot CPU reaches here before cpu_data(0) has been initialized. It
happens to work for X86_FEATURE_INVPCID_SINGLE since it's a
software-defined feature but it would fall over for a hardware-
derived X86_FEATURE.

X86_FEATURE_PGE determines whether the CPU has enabled global page
translations support. Use the faster cpu_feature_enabled() check to
shave off some more cycles when flushing all TLB entries, including the
global ones.
What this practically saves is:
mov 0x82eb308(%rip),%rax # 0xffffffff8935bec8 <boot_cpu_data+40>
test $0x20,%ah
... which test the bit. Not a lot, but TLB flushing is a timing-sensitive
path, so anything to make it even faster.

Commit aa44284960d5 ("x86/mm/tlb: Avoid reading mm_tlb_gen when
possible") introduced an optimization to skip superfluous TLB
flushes based on the generation provided in flush_tlb_info.
However, arch_tlbbatch_flush() does not provide any generation in
flush_tlb_info and populates the flush_tlb_info generation with
0. This 0 is causes the flush_tlb_info to be interpreted as a
superfluous, old flush. As a result, try_to_unmap_one() would
not perform any TLB flushes.
Fix it by checking whether f->new_tlb_gen is nonzero. Zero value
is anyhow is an invalid generation value. To avoid future
confusion, introduce TLB_GENERATION_INVALID constant and use it
properly. Add warnings to ensure no partial flushes are done with
TLB_GENERATION_INVALID or when f->mm is NULL, since this does not
make any sense.
In addition, add the missing unlikely().

On extreme TLB shootdown storms, the mm's tlb_gen cacheline is highly
contended and reading it should (arguably) be avoided as much as
possible.
Currently, flush_tlb_func() reads the mm's tlb_gen unconditionally,
even when it is not necessary (e.g., the mm was already switched).
This is wasteful.
Moreover, one of the existing optimizations is to read mm's tlb_gen to
see if there are additional in-flight TLB invalidations and flush the
entire TLB in such a case. However, if the request's tlb_gen was already
flushed, the benefit of checking the mm's tlb_gen is likely to be offset
by the overhead of the check itself.
Running will-it-scale with tlb_flush1_threads show a considerable
benefit on 56-core Skylake (up to +24%):

0day reported a regression on a microbenchmark which is intended to
stress the TLB flushing path:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220317090415.GE735@xsang-OptiPlex-9020/
It pointed at a commit from Nadav which intended to remove retpoline
overhead in the TLB flushing path by taking the 'cond'-ition in
on_each_cpu_cond_mask(), pre-calculating it, and incorporating it into
'cpumask'. That allowed the code to use a bunch of earlier direct
calls instead of later indirect calls that need a retpoline.
But, in practice, threads can go idle (and into lazy TLB mode where
they don't need to flush their TLB) between the early and late calls.
It works in this direction and not in the other because TLB-flushing
threads tend to hold mmap_lock for write. Contention on that lock
causes threads to _go_ idle right in this early/late window.
There was not any performance data in the original commit specific
to the retpoline overhead. I did a few tests on a system with
retpolines:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/dd8be93c-ded6-b962-50d4-96b1c3afb2b7@intel.com/
which showed a possible small win. But, that small win pales in
comparison with the bigger loss induced on non-retpoline systems.
Revert the patch that removed the retpolines. This was not a
clean revert, but it was self-contained enough not to be too painful.

Some thread flags can be set remotely, and so even when IRQs are disabled,
the flags can change under our feet. Generally this is unlikely to cause a
problem in practice, but it is somewhat unsound, and KCSAN will
legitimately warn that there is a data race.
To avoid such issues, a snapshot of the flags has to be taken prior to
using them. Some places already use READ_ONCE() for that, others do not.
Convert them all to the new flag accessor helpers.

The goal of this is to allow tasks that want to protect sensitive
information, against e.g. the recently found snoop assisted data sampling
vulnerabilites, to flush their L1D on being switched out. This protects
their data from being snooped or leaked via side channels after the task
has context switched out.
This could also be used to wipe L1D when an untrusted task is switched in,
but that's not a really well defined scenario while the opt-in variant is
clearly defined.
The mechanism is default disabled and can be enabled on the kernel command
line.
Prepare for the actual prctl based opt-in:
1) Provide the necessary setup functionality similar to the other
mitigations and enable the static branch when the command line option
is set and the CPU provides support for hardware assisted L1D
flushing. Software based L1D flush is not supported because it's CPU
model specific and not really well defined.
This does not come with a sysfs file like the other mitigations
because it is not bound to any specific vulnerability.
Support has to be queried via the prctl(2) interface.
2) Add TIF_SPEC_L1D_FLUSH next to L1D_SPEC_IB so the two bits can be
mangled into the mm pointer in one go which allows to reuse the
existing mechanism in switch_mm() for the conditional IBPB speculation
barrier efficiently.
3) Add the L1D flush specific functionality which flushes L1D when the
outgoing task opted in.
Also check whether the incoming task has requested L1D flush and if so
validate that it is not accidentaly running on an SMT sibling as this
makes the whole excercise moot because SMT siblings share L1D which
opens tons of other attack vectors. If that happens schedule task work
which signals the incoming task on return to user/guest with SIGBUS as
this is part of the paranoid L1D flush contract.

The counter value of a perf task may leak to another RDPMC task.
For example, a perf stat task as below is running on CPU 0.
perf stat -e 'branches,cycles' -- taskset -c 0 ./workload
In the meantime, an RDPMC task, which is also running on CPU 0, may read
the GP counters periodically. (The RDPMC task creates a fixed event,
but read four GP counters.)
$./rdpmc_read_all_counters
index 0x0 value 0x8001e5970f99
index 0x1 value 0x8005d750edb6
index 0x2 value 0x0
index 0x3 value 0x0
index 0x0 value 0x8002358e48a5
index 0x1 value 0x8006bd1e3bc9
index 0x2 value 0x0
index 0x3 value 0x0
It is a potential security issue. Once the attacker knows what the other
thread is counting. The PerfMon counter can be used as a side-channel to
attack cryptosystems.
The counter value of the perf stat task leaks to the RDPMC task because
perf never clears the counter when it's stopped.
Three methods were considered to address the issue.
- Unconditionally reset the counter in x86_pmu_del(). It can bring extra
overhead even when there is no RDPMC task running.
- Only reset the un-assigned dirty counters when the RDPMC task is
scheduled in via sched_task(). It fails for the below case.
Thread A Thread B
clone(CLONE_THREAD) --->
set_affine(0)
set_affine(1)
while (!event-enabled)
;
event = perf_event_open()
mmap(event)
ioctl(event, IOC_ENABLE); --->
RDPMC
Counters are still leaked to the thread B.
- Only reset the un-assigned dirty counters before updating the CR4.PCE
bit. The method is implemented here.
The dirty counter is a counter, on which the assigned event has been
deleted, but the counter is not reset. To track the dirty counters,
add a 'dirty' variable in the struct cpu_hw_events.
The security issue can only be found with an RDPMC task. To enable the
RDMPC, the CR4.PCE bit has to be updated. Add a
perf_clear_dirty_counters() right before updating the CR4.PCE bit to
clear the existing dirty counters. Only the current un-assigned dirty
counters are reset, because the RDPMC assigned dirty counters will be
updated soon.
After applying the patch,
$ ./rdpmc_read_all_counters
index 0x0 value 0x0
index 0x1 value 0x0
index 0x2 value 0x0
index 0x3 value 0x0
index 0x0 value 0x0
index 0x1 value 0x0
index 0x2 value 0x0
index 0x3 value 0x0
Performance
The performance of a context switch only be impacted when there are two
or more perf users and one of the users must be an RDPMC user. In other
cases, there is no performance impact.
The worst-case occurs when there are two users: the RDPMC user only
uses one counter; while the other user uses all available counters.
When the RDPMC task is scheduled in, all the counters, other than the
RDPMC assigned one, have to be reset.
Test results for the worst-case, using a modified lat_ctx as measured
on an Ice Lake platform, which has 8 GP and 3 FP counters (ignoring
SLOTS).
lat_ctx -s 128K -N 1000 processes 2
Without the patch:
The context switch time is 4.97 us
With the patch:
The context switch time is 5.16 us
There is ~4% performance drop for the context switching time in the
worst-case.

To improve TLB shootdown performance, flush the remote and local TLBs
concurrently. Introduce flush_tlb_multi() that does so. Introduce
paravirtual versions of flush_tlb_multi() for KVM, Xen and hyper-v (Xen
and hyper-v are only compile-tested).
While the updated smp infrastructure is capable of running a function on
a single local core, it is not optimized for this case. The multiple
function calls and the indirect branch introduce some overhead, and
might make local TLB flushes slower than they were before the recent
changes.
Before calling the SMP infrastructure, check if only a local TLB flush
is needed to restore the lost performance in this common case. This
requires to check mm_cpumask() one more time, but unless this mask is
updated very frequently, this should impact performance negatively.

Open-code on_each_cpu_cond_mask() in native_flush_tlb_others() to
optimize the code. Open-coding eliminates the need for the indirect branch
that is used to call is_lazy(), and in CPUs that are vulnerable to
Spectre v2, it eliminates the retpoline. In addition, it allows to use a
preallocated cpumask to compute the CPUs that should be.
This would later allow us not to adapt on_each_cpu_cond_mask() to
support local and remote functions.
Note that calling tlb_is_not_lazy() for every CPU that needs to be
flushed, as done in native_flush_tlb_multi() might look ugly, but it is
equivalent to what is currently done in on_each_cpu_cond_mask().
Actually, native_flush_tlb_multi() does it more efficiently since it
avoids using an indirect branch for the matter.

The unification of these two functions allows to use them in the updated
SMP infrastrucutre.
To do so, remove the reason argument from flush_tlb_func_local(), add
a member to struct tlb_flush_info that says which CPU initiated the
flush and act accordingly. Optimize the size of flush_tlb_info while we
are at it.
Unfortunately, this prevents us from using a constant tlb_flush_info for
arch_tlbbatch_flush(), but in a later stage we may be able to inline
tlb_flush_info into the IPI data, so it should not have an impact
eventually.

sync_core_before_usermode() had an incorrect optimization. If the kernel
returns from an interrupt, it can get to usermode without IRET. It just has
to schedule to a different task in the same mm and do SYSRET. Fortunately,
there were no callers of sync_core_before_usermode() that could have had
in_irq() or in_nmi() equal to true, because it's only ever called from the
scheduler.
While at it, clarify a related comment.

cpu_tlbstate is exported because various TLB-related functions need access
to it, but cpu_tlbstate is sensitive information which should only be
accessed by well-contained kernel functions and not be directly exposed to
modules.
As a third step, move _flush_tlb_one_user() out of line and hide the
native function. The latter can be static when CONFIG_PARAVIRT is
disabled.

load_mm_cr4_irqsoff() is really a strange name for a function which has
only one purpose: Update the CR4.PCE bit depending on the perf state.
Rename it to update_cr4_pce_mm(), move it into the tlb code and provide a
function which can be invoked by the perf smp function calls.
Another step to remove exposure of cpu_tlbstate.
No functional change.

load_mm_cr4() is always called with interrupts disabled from:
- switch_mm_irqs_off()
- refresh_pce(), which is a on_each_cpu() callback
Thus, disabling interrupts in cr4_set/clear_bits() is redundant.
Implement cr4_set/clear_bits_irqsoff() helpers, rename load_mm_cr4() to
load_mm_cr4_irqsoff() and use the new helpers. The new helpers do not need
a lockdep assert as __cr4_set() has one already.
The renaming in combination with the checks in __cr4_set() ensure that any
changes in the boundary conditions at the call sites will be detected.
