While only powerpc supports the hugepd case, the code is pretty generic
and I'd like to keep all GUP internals in one place.

Instead of using defines, which loses type safety and provokes unused
variable warnings from gcc, put the constants into static inlines.

<title>hugetlb: use same fault hash key for shared and private mappings</title>

<id>urn:sha1:1b426bac66e6cc83c9f2d92b96e4e72acf43419a</id>
<content type='text'>
hugetlb uses a fault mutex hash table to prevent page faults of the
same pages concurrently.  The key for shared and private mappings is
different.  Shared keys off address_space and file index.  Private keys
off mm and virtual address.  Consider a private mappings of a populated
hugetlbfs file.  A fault will map the page from the file and if needed
do a COW to map a writable page.

Hugetlbfs hole punch uses the fault mutex to prevent mappings of file
pages.  It uses the address_space file index key.  However, private
mappings will use a different key and could race with this code to map
the file page.  This causes problems (BUG) for the page cache remove
code as it expects the page to be unmapped.  A sample stack is:

page dumped because: VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(page_mapped(page))
kernel BUG at mm/filemap.c:169!
...
RIP: 0010:unaccount_page_cache_page+0x1b8/0x200
...

There seems to be another potential COW issue/race with this approach
of different private and shared keys as noted in commit 8382d914ebf7
("mm, hugetlb: improve page-fault scalability").

Since every hugetlb mapping (even anon and private) is actually a file
mapping, just use the address_space index key for all mappings.  This
results in potentially more hash collisions.  However, this should not
be the common case.

This patch converts to return vm_fault_t type for hugetlb_fault() when

Regarding the sparse warning, Luc said:

: This is the expected behaviour.  The constant 0 is magic regarding bitwise

: So, IMHO, Souptick's patch is the right thing to do.

<content type='text'>
This patch updates get_user_pages_longterm to migrate pages allocated
out of CMA region.  This makes sure that we don't keep non-movable pages
(due to page reference count) in the CMA area.

This will be used by ppc64 in a later patch to avoid pinning pages in
the CMA region.  ppc64 uses CMA region for allocation of the hardware
page table (hash page table) and not able to migrate pages out of CMA
region results in page table allocation failures.

One case where we hit this easy is when a guest using a VFIO passthrough
device.  VFIO locks all the guest's memory and if the guest memory is
backed by CMA region, it becomes unmovable resulting in fragmenting the
CMA and possibly preventing other guests from allocation a large enough
hash page table.

NOTE: We allocate the new page without using __GFP_THISNODE

sequence for hugetlb too.  This allows the architectures to override the

<title>mm/hugetlb: enable arch specific huge page size support for migration</title>

<id>urn:sha1:e693de186414ae66f2a316ff9befcd2b7a6d07b6</id>
<content type='text'>
Architectures like arm64 have HugeTLB page sizes which are different
than generic sizes at PMD, PUD, PGD level and implemented via contiguous
bits.  At present these special size HugeTLB pages cannot be identified
through macros like (PMD|PUD|PGDIR)_SHIFT and hence chosen not be
migrated.

Enabling migration support for these special HugeTLB page sizes along
with the generic ones (PMD|PUD|PGD) would require identifying all of
them on a given platform.  A platform specific hook can precisely
enumerate all huge page sizes supported for migration.  Instead of
comparing against standard huge page orders let
hugetlb_migration_support() function call a platform hook
arch_hugetlb_migration_support().  Default definition for the platform
hook maintains existing semantics which checks standard huge page order.
But an architecture can choose to override the default and provide
support for a comprehensive set of huge page sizes.

(1GB huge page is PUD based on ARM64_4K_PAGES base page size) that can
be enabled for migration.  It can be achieved through checking for
PUD_SHIFT order based HugeTLB pages during migration.

<title>mm/hugetlb: distinguish between migratability and movability</title>

<content type='text'>
Patch series "arm64/mm: Enable HugeTLB migration", v4.

This patch series enables HugeTLB migration support for all supported
huge page sizes at all levels including contiguous bit implementation.
Following HugeTLB migration support matrix has been enabled with this
patch series.  All permutations have been tested except for the 16GB.

           CONT PTE    PMD    CONT PMD    PUD
           --------    ---    --------    ---
  4K:         64K     2M         32M     1G
  16K:         2M    32M          1G
  64K:         2M   512M         16G

First the series adds migration support for PUD based huge pages.  It
then adds a platform specific hook to query an architecture if a given
huge page size is supported for migration while also providing a default
fallback option preserving the existing semantics which just checks for
(PMD|PUD|PGDIR)_SHIFT macros.  The last two patches enables HugeTLB
migration on arm64 and subscribe to this new platform specific hook by
defining an override.

The second patch differentiates between movability and migratability
aspects of huge pages and implements hugepage_movable_supported() which
can then be used during allocation to decide whether to place the huge
page in movable zone or not.

This patch (of 5):

During huge page allocation it's migratability is checked to determine
if it should be placed under movable zones with GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE.
But the movability aspect of the huge page could depend on other factors
than just migratability.  Movability in itself is a distinct property
which should not be tied with migratability alone.

This differentiates these two and implements an enhanced movability check
which also considers huge page size to determine if it is feasible to be
placed under a movable zone.  At present it just checks for gigantic pages
but going forward it can incorporate other enhanced checks.

<title>mm: migration: fix migration of huge PMD shared pages</title>

<id>urn:sha1:017b1660df89f5fb4bfe66c34e35f7d2031100c7</id>
<content type='text'>
The page migration code employs try_to_unmap() to try and unmap the source
page.  This is accomplished by using rmap_walk to find all vmas where the
page is mapped.  This search stops when page mapcount is zero.  For shared
PMD huge pages, the page map count is always 1 no matter the number of
mappings.  Shared mappings are tracked via the reference count of the PMD
page.  Therefore, try_to_unmap stops prematurely and does not completely
unmap all mappings of the source page.

This problem can result is data corruption as writes to the original
source page can happen after contents of the page are copied to the target
page.  Hence, data is lost.

This problem was originally seen as DB corruption of shared global areas
after a huge page was soft offlined due to ECC memory errors.  DB
developers noticed they could reproduce the issue by (hotplug) offlining
memory used to back huge pages.  A simple testcase can reproduce the
problem by creating a shared PMD mapping (note that this must be at least
PUD_SIZE in size and PUD_SIZE aligned (1GB on x86)), and using
migrate_pages() to migrate process pages between nodes while continually
writing to the huge pages being migrated.

To fix, have the try_to_unmap_one routine check for huge PMD sharing by
calling huge_pmd_unshare for hugetlbfs huge pages.  If it is a shared
mapping it will be 'unshared' which removes the page table entry and drops
the reference on the PMD page.  After this, flush caches and TLB.

mmu notifiers are called before locking page tables, but we can not be
sure of PMD sharing until page tables are locked.  Therefore, check for
the possibility of PMD sharing before locking so that notifiers can
prepare for the worst possible case.
