Matthew Wilcox (Oracle)andAndrew Morton 615d9bb2cc mm: call ->free_folio() directly in folio_unmap_invalidate()
We can only call filemap_free_folio() if we have a reference to (or hold a
lock on) the mapping.  Otherwise, we've already removed the folio from the
mapping so it no longer pins the mapping and the mapping can be removed,
causing a use-after-free when accessing mapping->a_ops.

Follow the same pattern as __remove_mapping() and load the free_folio
function pointer before dropping the lock on the mapping.  That lets us
make filemap_free_folio() static as this was the only caller outside
filemap.c.

Baolin WangandAndrew Morton f58df56652 mm: filemap: fix nr_pages calculation overflow in filemap_map_pages()
When running stress-ng on my Arm64 machine with v7.0-rc3 kernel, I
encountered some very strange crash issues showing up as "Bad page state":

"

"

After analyzing this page’s state, it is hard to understand why the
mapcount is not 0 while the refcount is 0, since this page is not where
the issue first occurred.  By enabling the CONFIG_DEBUG_VM config, I can
reproduce the crash as well and captured the first warning where the issue
appears:

"

The code that triggers the warning is: "VM_WARN_ON_FOLIO(page_folio(page +
nr_pages - 1) != folio, folio)", which indicates that set_pte_range()
tried to map beyond the large folio’s size.

By adding more debug information, I found that 'nr_pages' had overflowed
in filemap_map_pages(), causing set_pte_range() to establish mappings for
a range exceeding the folio size, potentially corrupting fields of pages
that do not belong to this folio (e.g., page->_mapcount).

After above analysis, I think the possible race is as follows:

CPU 0                                                  CPU 1
filemap_map_pages()                                   ext4_setattr()
   //get and lock folio with old inode->i_size
   next_uptodate_folio()

                                                          .......
                                                          //shrink the inode->i_size
                                                          i_size_write(inode, attr->ia_size);

   //calculate the end_pgoff with the new inode->i_size
   file_end = DIV_ROUND_UP(i_size_read(mapping->host), PAGE_SIZE) - 1;
   end_pgoff = min(end_pgoff, file_end);

   ......
   //nr_pages can be overflowed, cause xas.xa_index > end_pgoff
   end = folio_next_index(folio) - 1;
   nr_pages = min(end, end_pgoff) - xas.xa_index + 1;

   ......
   //map large folio
   filemap_map_folio_range()
                                                          ......
                                                          //truncate folios
                                                          truncate_pagecache(inode, inode->i_size);

To fix this issue, move the 'end_pgoff' calculation before
next_uptodate_folio(), so the retrieved folio stays consistent with the
file end to avoid 'nr_pages' calculation overflow.  After this patch, the
crash issue is gone.

Thomas HellströmandRodrigo Vivi b570f37a2c mm: Fix a hmm_range_fault() livelock / starvation problem
If hmm_range_fault() fails a folio_trylock() in do_swap_page,
trying to acquire the lock of a device-private folio for migration,
to ram, the function will spin until it succeeds grabbing the lock.

However, if the process holding the lock is depending on a work
item to be completed, which is scheduled on the same CPU as the
spinning hmm_range_fault(), that work item might be starved and
we end up in a livelock / starvation situation which is never
resolved.

This can happen, for example if the process holding the
device-private folio lock is stuck in
   migrate_device_unmap()->lru_add_drain_all()
sinc lru_add_drain_all() requires a short work-item
to be run on all online cpus to complete.

A prerequisite for this to happen is:
a) Both zone device and system memory folios are considered in
   migrate_device_unmap(), so that there is a reason to call
   lru_add_drain_all() for a system memory folio while a
   folio lock is held on a zone device folio.
b) The zone device folio has an initial mapcount > 1 which causes
   at least one migration PTE entry insertion to be deferred to
   try_to_migrate(), which can happen after the call to
   lru_add_drain_all().
c) No or voluntary only preemption.

This all seems pretty unlikely to happen, but indeed is hit by
the "xe_exec_system_allocator" igt test.

Resolve this by waiting for the folio to be unlocked if the
folio_trylock() fails in do_swap_page().

Rename migration_entry_wait_on_locked() to
softleaf_entry_wait_unlock() and update its documentation to
indicate the new use-case.

Future code improvements might consider moving
the lru_add_drain_all() call in migrate_device_unmap() to be
called *after* all pages have migration entries inserted.
That would eliminate also b) above.

v2:
- Instead of a cond_resched() in hmm_range_fault(),
  eliminate the problem by waiting for the folio to be unlocked
  in do_swap_page() (Alistair Popple, Andrew Morton)
v3:
- Add a stub migration_entry_wait_on_locked() for the
  !CONFIG_MIGRATION case. (Kernel Test Robot)
v4:
- Rename migrate_entry_wait_on_locked() to
  softleaf_entry_wait_on_locked() and update docs (Alistair Popple)
v5:
- Add a WARN_ON_ONCE() for the !CONFIG_MIGRATION
  version of softleaf_entry_wait_on_locked().
- Modify wording around function names in the commit message

Lorenzo StoakesandAndrew Morton 53f1d93644 mm: make vm_area_desc utilise vma_flags_t only
Now we have eliminated all uses of vm_area_desc->vm_flags, eliminate this
field, and have mmap_prepare users utilise the vma_flags_t
vm_area_desc->vma_flags field only.

As part of this change we alter is_shared_maywrite() to accept a
vma_flags_t parameter, and introduce is_shared_maywrite_vm_flags() for use
with legacy vm_flags_t flags.

We also update struct mmap_state to add a union between vma_flags and
vm_flags temporarily until the mmap logic is also converted to using
vma_flags_t.

Also update the VMA userland tests to reflect this change.

   - Allow page table destruction to reschedule, fixing long
     need_resched latencies observed when destroying a large VM

   - Minor fixes to KVM and selftests

  Loongarch:

   - Get VM PMU capability from HW GCFG register

   - Add AVEC basic support

   - Use 64-bit register definition for EIOINTC

   - Add KVM timer test cases for tools/selftests

  RISC/V:

   - SBI message passing (MPXY) support for KVM guest

   - Give a new, more specific error subcode for the case when in-kernel
     AIA virtualization fails to allocate IMSIC VS-file

   - Support KVM_DIRTY_LOG_INITIALLY_SET, enabling dirty log gradually
     in small chunks

   - Fix guest page fault within HLV* instructions

   - Flush VS-stage TLB after VCPU migration for Andes cores

  s390:

   - Always allocate ESCA (Extended System Control Area), instead of
     starting with the basic SCA and converting to ESCA with the
     addition of the 65th vCPU. The price is increased number of exits
     (and worse performance) on z10 and earlier processor; ESCA was
     introduced by z114/z196 in 2010

   - VIRT_XFER_TO_GUEST_WORK support

   - Operation exception forwarding support

   - Cleanups

  x86:

   - Skip the costly "zap all SPTEs" on an MMIO generation wrap if MMIO
     SPTE caching is disabled, as there can't be any relevant SPTEs to
     zap

   - Relocate a misplaced export

   - Fix an async #PF bug where KVM would clear the completion queue
     when the guest transitioned in and out of paging mode, e.g. when
     handling an SMI and then returning to paged mode via RSM

   - Leave KVM's user-return notifier registered even when disabling
     virtualization, as long as kvm.ko is loaded. On reboot/shutdown,
     keeping the notifier registered is ok; the kernel does not use the
     MSRs and the callback will run cleanly and restore host MSRs if the
     CPU manages to return to userspace before the system goes down

   - Use the checked version of {get,put}_user()

   - Fix a long-lurking bug where KVM's lack of catch-up logic for
     periodic APIC timers can result in a hard lockup in the host

   - Revert the periodic kvmclock sync logic now that KVM doesn't use a
     clocksource that's subject to NTP corrections

   - Clean up KVM's handling of MMIO Stale Data and L1TF, and bury the
     latter behind CONFIG_CPU_MITIGATIONS

   - Context switch XCR0, XSS, and PKRU outside of the entry/exit fast
     path; the only reason they were handled in the fast path was to
     paper of a bug in the core #MC code, and that has long since been
     fixed

   - Add emulator support for AVX MOV instructions, to play nice with
     emulated devices whose guest drivers like to access PCI BARs with
     large multi-byte instructions

  x86 (AMD):

   - Fix a few missing "VMCB dirty" bugs

   - Fix the worst of KVM's lack of EFER.LMSLE emulation

   - Add AVIC support for addressing 4k vCPUs in x2AVIC mode

   - Fix incorrect handling of selective CR0 writes when checking
     intercepts during emulation of L2 instructions

   - Fix a currently-benign bug where KVM would clobber SPEC_CTRL[63:32]
     on VMRUN and #VMEXIT

   - Fix a bug where KVM corrupt the guest code stream when re-injecting
     a soft interrupt if the guest patched the underlying code after the
     VM-Exit, e.g. when Linux patches code with a temporary INT3

   - Add KVM_X86_SNP_POLICY_BITS to advertise supported SNP policy bits
     to userspace, and extend KVM "support" to all policy bits that
     don't require any actual support from KVM

  x86 (Intel):

   - Use the root role from kvm_mmu_page to construct EPTPs instead of
     the current vCPU state, partly as worthwhile cleanup, but mostly to
     pave the way for tracking per-root TLB flushes, and elide EPT
     flushes on pCPU migration if the root is clean from a previous
     flush

   - Add a few missing nested consistency checks

   - Rip out support for doing "early" consistency checks via hardware
     as the functionality hasn't been used in years and is no longer
     useful in general; replace it with an off-by-default module param
     to WARN if hardware fails a check that KVM does not perform

   - Fix a currently-benign bug where KVM would drop the guest's
     SPEC_CTRL[63:32] on VM-Enter

   - Misc cleanups

   - Overhaul the TDX code to address systemic races where KVM (acting
     on behalf of userspace) could inadvertantly trigger lock contention
     in the TDX-Module; KVM was either working around these in weird,
     ugly ways, or was simply oblivious to them (though even Yan's
     devilish selftests could only break individual VMs, not the host
     kernel)

   - Fix a bug where KVM could corrupt a vCPU's cpu_list when freeing a
     TDX vCPU, if creating said vCPU failed partway through

   - Fix a few sparse warnings (bad annotation, 0 != NULL)

   - Use struct_size() to simplify copying TDX capabilities to userspace

   - Fix a bug where TDX would effectively corrupt user-return MSR
     values if the TDX Module rejects VP.ENTER and thus doesn't clobber
     host MSRs as expected

  Selftests:

   - Fix a math goof in mmu_stress_test when running on a single-CPU
     system/VM

   - Forcefully override ARCH from x86_64 to x86 to play nice with
     specifying ARCH=x86_64 on the command line

   - Extend a bunch of nested VMX to validate nested SVM as well

   - Add support for LA57 in the core VM_MODE_xxx macro, and add a test
     to verify KVM can save/restore nested VMX state when L1 is using
     5-level paging, but L2 is not

   - Clean up the guest paging code in anticipation of sharing the core
     logic for nested EPT and nested NPT

  guest_memfd:

   - Add NUMA mempolicy support for guest_memfd, and clean up a variety
     of rough edges in guest_memfd along the way

   - Define a CLASS to automatically handle get+put when grabbing a
     guest_memfd from a memslot to make it harder to leak references

   - Enhance KVM selftests to make it easer to develop and debug
     selftests like those added for guest_memfd NUMA support, e.g. where
     test and/or KVM bugs often result in hard-to-debug SIGBUS errors

   - Misc cleanups

  Generic:

   - Use the recently-added WQ_PERCPU when creating the per-CPU
     workqueue for irqfd cleanup

   - Fix a goof in the dirty ring documentation

   - Fix choice of target for directed yield across different calls to
     kvm_vcpu_on_spin(); the function was always starting from the first
     vCPU instead of continuing the round-robin search"

Linus Torvalds ebaeabfa5a Merge tag 'vfs-6.19-rc1.writeback' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull writeback updates from Christian Brauner:
 "Features:

   - Allow file systems to increase the minimum writeback chunk size.

     The relatively low minimal writeback size of 4MiB means that
     written back inodes on rotational media are switched a lot. Besides
     introducing additional seeks, this also can lead to extreme file
     fragmentation on zoned devices when a lot of files are cached
     relative to the available writeback bandwidth.

     This adds a superblock field that allows the file system to
     override the default size, and sets it to the zone size for zoned
     XFS.

   - Add logging for slow writeback when it exceeds
     sysctl_hung_task_timeout_secs. This helps identify tasks waiting
     for a long time and pinpoint potential issues. Recording the
     starting jiffies is also useful when debugging a crashed vmcore.

   - Wake up waiting tasks when finishing the writeback of a chunk

  Cleanups:

   - filemap_* writeback interface cleanups.

     Adding filemap_fdatawrite_wbc ended up being a mistake, as all but
     the original btrfs caller should be using better high level
     interfaces instead.

     This series removes all these low-level interfaces, switches btrfs
     to a more specific interface, and cleans up other too low-level
     interfaces. With this the writeback_control that is passed to the
     writeback code is only initialized in three places.

   - Remove __filemap_fdatawrite, __filemap_fdatawrite_range, and
     filemap_fdatawrite_wbc

   - Add filemap_flush_nr helper for btrfs

   - Push struct writeback_control into start_delalloc_inodes in btrfs

   - Rename filemap_fdatawrite_range_kick to filemap_flush_range

Pull vfs inode updates from Christian Brauner:
 "Features:

   - Hide inode->i_state behind accessors. Open-coded accesses prevent
     asserting they are done correctly. One obvious aspect is locking,
     but significantly more can be checked. For example it can be
     detected when the code is clearing flags which are already missing,
     or is setting flags when it is illegal (e.g., I_FREEING when
     ->i_count > 0)

   - Provide accessors for ->i_state, converts all filesystems using
     coccinelle and manual conversions (btrfs, ceph, smb, f2fs, gfs2,
     overlayfs, nilfs2, xfs), and makes plain ->i_state access fail to
     compile

   - Rework I_NEW handling to operate without fences, simplifying the
     code after the accessor infrastructure is in place

  Cleanups:

   - Move wait_on_inode() from writeback.h to fs.h

   - Spell out fenced ->i_state accesses with explicit smp_wmb/smp_rmb

Pull iomap updates from Christian Brauner:
 "FUSE iomap Support for Buffered Reads:

    This adds iomap support for FUSE buffered reads and readahead. This
    enables granular uptodate tracking with large folios so only
    non-uptodate portions need to be read. Also fixes a race condition
    with large folios + writeback cache that could cause data corruption
    on partial writes followed by reads.

     - Refactored iomap read/readahead bio logic into helpers
     - Added caller-provided callbacks for read operations
     - Moved buffered IO bio logic into new file
     - FUSE now uses iomap for read_folio and readahead

  Zero Range Folio Batch Support:

    Add folio batch support for iomap_zero_range() to handle dirty
    folios over unwritten mappings. Fix raciness issues where dirty data
    could be lost during zero range operations.

     - filemap_get_folios_tag_range() helper for dirty folio lookup
     - Optional zero range dirty folio processing
     - XFS fills dirty folios on zero range of unwritten mappings
     - Removed old partial EOF zeroing optimization

  DIO Write Completions from Interrupt Context:

    Restore pre-iomap behavior where pure overwrite completions run
    inline rather than being deferred to workqueue. Reduces context
    switches for high-performance workloads like ScyllaDB.

     - Removed unused IOCB_DIO_CALLER_COMP code
     - Error completions always run in user context (fixes zonefs)
     - Reworked REQ_FUA selection logic
     - Inverted IOMAP_DIO_INLINE_COMP to IOMAP_DIO_OFFLOAD_COMP

  Buffered IO Cleanups:

    Some performance and code clarity improvements:

     - Replace manual bitmap scanning with find_next_bit()
     - Simplify read skip logic for writes
     - Optimize pending async writeback accounting
     - Better variable naming
     - Documentation for iomap_finish_folio_write() requirements

  Misaligned Vectors for Zoned XFS:

    Enables sub-block aligned vectors in XFS always-COW mode for zoned
    devices via new IOMAP_DIO_FSBLOCK_ALIGNED flag.

  Bug Fixes:

     - Allocate s_dio_done_wq for async reads (fixes syzbot report after

Paolo Bonzini 236831743c Merge tag 'kvm-x86-gmem-6.19' of https://github.com/kvm-x86/linux into HEAD
KVM guest_memfd changes for 6.19:

 - Add NUMA mempolicy support for guest_memfd, and clean up a variety of
   rough edges in guest_memfd along the way.

 - Define a CLASS to automatically handle get+put when grabbing a guest_memfd
   from a memslot to make it harder to leak references.

 - Enhance KVM selftests to make it easer to develop and debug selftests like
   those added for guest_memfd NUMA support, e.g. where test and/or KVM bugs
   often result in hard-to-debug SIGBUS errors.

 - Misc cleanups.

1. inode_bit_waitqueue() was somehow placed between __inode_add_lru() and
   inode_add_lru(). move it up
2. assert ->i_lock is held in __inode_add_lru instead of just claiming it is
   needed
3. s/__inode_add_lru/__inode_lru_list_add/ for consistency with itself
   (inode_lru_list_del()) and similar routines for sb and io list
   management
4. push list presence check into inode_lru_list_del(), just like sb and

We are then able to eliminate pmd_to_swp_entry(),
is_pmd_migration_entry(), is_pmd_device_private_entry() and
is_pmd_non_present_folio_entry().

This further establishes the use of leaf operations throughout the code

Chris noticed that filemap_map_pages() calculates can_map_large only once
for the first page in the fault around range.  The value is not valid for
the following pages in the range and must be recalculated.

Instead of recalculating can_map_large on each iteration, pass down
file_end to filemap_map_folio_range() and let it make the decision on what
can be mapped.

Roman GushchinandAndrew Morton 9f1edf1aed mm: readahead: make thp readahead conditional to mmap_miss logic
Commit 4687fdbb80 ("mm/filemap: Support VM_HUGEPAGE for file mappings")
introduced a special handling for VM_HUGEPAGE mappings: even if the
readahead is disabled, 1 or 2 HPAGE_PMD_ORDER pages are allocated.

This change causes a significant regression for containers with a tight
memory.max limit, if VM_HUGEPAGE is widely used.  Prior to this commit,
mmap_miss logic would eventually lead to the readahead disablement,
effectively reducing the memory pressure in the cgroup.  With this change
the kernel is trying to allocate 1-2 huge pages for each fault, no matter
if these pages are used or not before being evicted, increasing the memory
pressure multi-fold.

To fix the regression, let's make the new VM_HUGEPAGE conditional to the
mmap_miss check, but keep independent from the ra->ra_pages.  This way the
main intention of commit 4687fdbb80 ("mm/filemap: Support VM_HUGEPAGE
for file mappings") stays intact, but the regression is resolved.

The logic behind this changes is simple: even if a user explicitly
requests using huge pages to back the file mapping (using VM_HUGEPAGE
flag), under a very strong memory pressure it's better to fall back to
ordinary pages.

Kiryl ShutsemauandAndrew Morton 74207de2ba mm/memory: do not populate page table entries beyond i_size
Patch series "Fix SIGBUS semantics with large folios", v3.

Accessing memory within a VMA, but beyond i_size rounded up to the next
page size, is supposed to generate SIGBUS.

Darrick reported[1] an xfstests regression in v6.18-rc1.  generic/749
failed due to missing SIGBUS.  This was caused by my recent changes that
try to fault in the whole folio where possible:

        19773df031 ("mm/fault: try to map the entire file folio in finish_fault()")
        357b92761d ("mm/filemap: map entire large folio faultaround")

These changes did not consider i_size when setting up PTEs, leading to
xfstest breakage.

However, the problem has been present in the kernel for a long time -
since huge tmpfs was introduced in 2016.  The kernel happily maps
PMD-sized folios as PMD without checking i_size.  And huge=always tmpfs
allocates PMD-size folios on any writes.

I considered this corner case when I implemented a large tmpfs, and my
conclusion was that no one in their right mind should rely on receiving a
SIGBUS signal when accessing beyond i_size.  I cannot imagine how it could
be useful for the workload.

But apparently filesystem folks care a lot about preserving strict SIGBUS
semantics.

Generic/749 was introduced last year with reference to POSIX, but no real
workloads were mentioned.  It also acknowledged the tmpfs deviation from
the test case.

POSIX indeed says[3]:

        References within the address range starting at pa and
        continuing for len bytes to whole pages following the end of an
        object shall result in delivery of a SIGBUS signal.

The patchset fixes the regression introduced by recent changes as well as
more subtle SIGBUS breakage due to split failure on truncation.


This patch (of 2):

Accesses within VMA, but beyond i_size rounded up to PAGE_SIZE are
supposed to generate SIGBUS.

Recent changes attempted to fault in full folio where possible.  They did
not respect i_size, which led to populating PTEs beyond i_size and
breaking SIGBUS semantics.

Darrick reported generic/749 breakage because of this.

However, the problem existed before the recent changes.  With huge=always
tmpfs, any write to a file leads to PMD-size allocation.  Following the
fault-in of the folio will install PMD mapping regardless of i_size.

Fix filemap_map_pages() and finish_fault() to not install:
  - PTEs beyond i_size;
  - PMD mappings across i_size;

Make an exception for shmem/tmpfs that for long time intentionally
mapped with PMDs across i_size.

Brian FosterandChristian Brauner f8d98072fe filemap: add helper to look up dirty folios in a range
Add a new filemap_get_folios_dirty() helper to look up existing dirty
folios in a range and add them to a folio_batch. This is to support
optimization of certain iomap operations that only care about dirty
folios in a target range. For example, zero range only zeroes the subset
of dirty pages over unwritten mappings, seek hole/data may use similar
logic in the future, etc.

Note that the helper is intended for use under internal fs locks.
Therefore it trylocks folios in order to filter out clean folios.
This loosely follows the logic from filemap_range_has_writeback().
