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.

The PG_waiters bit is not included in PAGE_FLAGS_CHECK_AT_FREE, and
vmscan.c's free_unref_page_list() callers rely on that not to generate
bad_page() alerts. So __page_cache_release(), put_pages_list() and
release_pages() (and presumably copy-and-pasted free_zone_device_page())
are redundant and misleading to make a special point of clearing it (as
the "__" implies, it could only safely be used on the freeing path).
Delete __ClearPageWaiters(). Remark on this in one of the "possible"
comments in folio_wake_bit(), and delete the superfluous comments.

Patch series "Free the 2nd vmemmap page associated with each HugeTLB
page", v7.
This series can minimize the overhead of struct page for 2MB HugeTLB
pages significantly. It further reduces the overhead of struct page by
12.5% for a 2MB HugeTLB compared to the previous approach, which means
2GB per 1TB HugeTLB. It is a nice gain. Comments and reviews are
welcome. Thanks.
The main implementation and details can refer to the commit log of patch
1. In this series, I have changed the following four helpers, the
following table shows the impact of the overhead of those helpers.
+------------------+-----------------------+
| APIs | head page | tail page |
+------------------+-----------+-----------+
| PageHead() | Y | N |
+------------------+-----------+-----------+
| PageTail() | Y | N |
+------------------+-----------+-----------+
| PageCompound() | N | N |
+------------------+-----------+-----------+
| compound_head() | Y | N |
+------------------+-----------+-----------+
Y: Overhead is increased.
N: Overhead is _NOT_ increased.
It shows that the overhead of those helpers on a tail page don't change
between "hugetlb_free_vmemmap=on" and "hugetlb_free_vmemmap=off". But the
overhead on a head page will be increased when "hugetlb_free_vmemmap=on"
(except PageCompound()). So I believe that Matthew Wilcox's folio series
will help with this.
The users of PageHead() and PageTail() are much less than compound_head()
and most users of PageTail() are VM_BUG_ON(), so I have done some tests
about the overhead of compound_head() on head pages.
I have tested the overhead of calling compound_head() on a head page,
which is 2.11ns (Measure the call time of 10 million times
compound_head(), and then average).
For a head page whose address is not aligned with PAGE_SIZE or a
non-compound page, the overhead of compound_head() is 2.54ns which is
increased by 20%. For a head page whose address is aligned with
PAGE_SIZE, the overhead of compound_head() is 2.97ns which is increased by
40%. Most pages are the former. I do not think the overhead is
significant since the overhead of compound_head() itself is low.
This patch (of 5):
This patch minimizes the overhead of struct page for 2MB HugeTLB pages
significantly. It further reduces the overhead of struct page by 12.5%
for a 2MB HugeTLB compared to the previous approach, which means 2GB per
1TB HugeTLB (2MB type).
After the feature of "Free sonme vmemmap pages of HugeTLB page" is
enabled, the mapping of the vmemmap addresses associated with a 2MB
HugeTLB page becomes the figure below.
HugeTLB struct pages(8 pages) page frame(8 pages)
+-----------+ ---virt_to_page---> +-----------+ mapping to +-----------+---> PG_head
| | | 0 | -------------> | 0 |
| | +-----------+ +-----------+
| | | 1 | -------------> | 1 |
| | +-----------+ +-----------+
| | | 2 | ----------------^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^
| | +-----------+ | | | | |
| | | 3 | ------------------+ | | | |
| | +-----------+ | | | |
| | | 4 | --------------------+ | | |
| 2MB | +-----------+ | | |
| | | 5 | ----------------------+ | |
| | +-----------+ | |
| | | 6 | ------------------------+ |
| | +-----------+ |
| | | 7 | --------------------------+
| | +-----------+
| |
| |
| |
+-----------+
As we can see, the 2nd vmemmap page frame (indexed by 1) is reused and
remaped. However, the 2nd vmemmap page frame is also can be freed to
the buddy allocator, then we can change the mapping from the figure
above to the figure below.
HugeTLB struct pages(8 pages) page frame(8 pages)
+-----------+ ---virt_to_page---> +-----------+ mapping to +-----------+---> PG_head
| | | 0 | -------------> | 0 |
| | +-----------+ +-----------+
| | | 1 | ---------------^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^
| | +-----------+ | | | | | |

| | | 6 | -------------------------+ |
| | +-----------+ |
| | | 7 | ---------------------------+
| | +-----------+
| |
| |
| |
+-----------+
After we do this, all tail vmemmap pages (1-7) are mapped to the head
vmemmap page frame (0). In other words, there are more than one page
struct with PG_head associated with each HugeTLB page. We __know__ that
there is only one head page struct, the tail page structs with PG_head are
fake head page structs. We need an approach to distinguish between those
two different types of page structs so that compound_head(), PageHead()
and PageTail() can work properly if the parameter is the tail page struct
but with PG_head.
The following code snippet describes how to distinguish between real and
fake head page struct.
if (test_bit(PG_head, &page->flags)) {
unsigned long head = READ_ONCE(page[1].compound_head);
if (head & 1) {
if (head == (unsigned long)page + 1)
==> head page struct
else
==> tail page struct
} else
==> head page struct
}
We can safely access the field of the @page[1] with PG_head because the
@page is a compound page composed with at least two contiguous pages.

After recent soft-offline rework, error pages can be taken off from
buddy allocator, but the existing unpoison_memory() does not properly
undo the operation. Moreover, due to the recent change on
__get_hwpoison_page(), get_page_unless_zero() is hardly called for
hwpoisoned pages. So __get_hwpoison_page() highly likely returns -EBUSY
(meaning to fail to grab page refcount) and unpoison just clears
PG_hwpoison without releasing a refcount. That does not lead to a
critical issue like kernel panic, but unpoisoned pages never get back to
buddy (leaked permanently), which is not good.
To (partially) fix this, we need to identify "taken off" pages from
other types of hwpoisoned pages. We can't use refcount or page flags
for this purpose, so a pseudo flag is defined by hacking ->private
field. Someone might think that put_page() is enough to cancel
taken-off pages, but the normal free path contains some operations not
suitable for the current purpose, and can fire VM_BUG_ON().
Note that unpoison_memory() is now supposed to be cancel hwpoison events
injected only by madvise() or
/sys/devices/system/memory/{hard,soft}_offline_page, not by MCE
injection, so please don't try to use unpoison when testing with MCE
injection.

Pull memory folios from Matthew Wilcox:
"Add memory folios, a new type to represent either order-0 pages or the
head page of a compound page. This should be enough infrastructure to
support filesystems converting from pages to folios.
The point of all this churn is to allow filesystems and the page cache
to manage memory in larger chunks than PAGE_SIZE. The original plan
was to use compound pages like THP does, but I ran into problems with
some functions expecting only a head page while others expect the
precise page containing a particular byte.
The folio type allows a function to declare that it's expecting only a
head page. Almost incidentally, this allows us to remove various calls
to VM_BUG_ON(PageTail(page)) and compound_head().
This converts just parts of the core MM and the page cache. For 5.17,
we intend to convert various filesystems (XFS and AFS are ready; other
filesystems may make it) and also convert more of the MM and page
cache to folios. For 5.18, multi-page folios should be ready.
The multi-page folios offer some improvement to some workloads. The
80% win is real, but appears to be an artificial benchmark (postgres
startup, which isn't a serious workload). Real workloads (eg building
the kernel, running postgres in a steady state, etc) seem to benefit
between 0-10%. I haven't heard of any performance losses as a result
of this series. Nobody has done any serious performance tuning; I
imagine that tweaking the readahead algorithm could provide some more
interesting wins. There are also other places where we could choose to
create large folios and currently do not, such as writes that are
larger than PAGE_SIZE.

There are two paths which may do PMD map: fault around and regular
fault.
Before commit f9ce0be71d ("mm: Cleanup faultaround and finish_fault()
codepaths") the thing was even worse in fault around path. The THP
could be PMD mapped as long as the VMA fits regardless what subpage is
accessed and corrupted. After this commit as long as head page is not
corrupted the THP could be PMD mapped.
In the regular fault path the THP could be PMD mapped as long as the
corrupted page is not accessed and the VMA fits.
This loophole could be fixed by iterating every subpage to check if any
of them is hwpoisoned or not, but it is somewhat costly in page fault
path.
So introduce a new page flag called HasHWPoisoned on the first tail
page. It indicates the THP has hwpoisoned subpage(s). It is set if any
subpage of THP is found hwpoisoned by memory failure and after the
refcount is bumped successfully, then cleared when the THP is freed or
split.
The soft offline path doesn't need this since soft offline handler just
marks a subpage hwpoisoned when the subpage is migrated successfully.
But shmem THP didn't get split then migrated at all.

Rename set_page_writeback() to folio_start_writeback() to match
folio_end_writeback(). Do not bother with wrappers that return void;
callers are perfectly capable of ignoring return values.
Add wrappers for set_page_writeback(), set_page_writeback_keepwrite() and
test_set_page_writeback() for compatibililty with existing filesystems.
The main advantage of this patch is getting the statistics right,
although it does eliminate a couple of calls to compound_head().

test_clear_page_writeback() is actually an mm-internal function, although
it's named as if it's a pagecache function. Move it to mm/internal.h,
rename it to __folio_end_writeback() and change the return type to bool.
The conversion from page to folio is mostly about accounting the number
of pages being written back, although it does eliminate a couple of
calls to compound_head().
