mm: userfaultfd: correct dirty flags set for both present and swap pte

2025-05-22T12:31:55+00:00

commit 75cb1cca2c880179a11c7dd9380b6f14e41a06a4 upstream. As David pointed out, what truly matters for mremap and userfaultfd move operations is the soft dirty bit. The current comment and implementation—which always sets the dirty bit for present PTEs and fails to set the soft dirty bit for swap PTEs—are incorrect. This could break features like Checkpoint-Restore in Userspace (CRIU). This patch updates the behavior to correctly set the soft dirty bit for both present and swap PTEs in accordance with mremap.

mm/vma: add give_up_on_oom option on modify/merge, use in uffd release

2025-04-25T08:51:20+00:00

commit 41e6ddcaa0f18dda4c3fadf22533775a30d6f72f upstream. Currently, if a VMA merge fails due to an OOM condition arising on commit merge or a failure to duplicate anon_vma's, we report this so the caller can handle it. However there are cases where the caller is only ostensibly trying a merge, and doesn't mind if it fails due to this condition. Since we do not want to introduce an implicit assumption that we only actually modify VMAs after OOM conditions might arise, add a 'give up on oom' option and make an explicit contract that, should this flag be set, we absolutely will not modify any VMAs should OOM arise and just bail out. Since it'd be very unusual for a user to try to vma_modify() with this flag set but be specifying a range within a VMA which ends up being split (which can fail due to rlimit issues, not only OOM), we add a debug warning for this condition. The motivating reason for this is uffd release - syzkaller (and Pedro Falcato's VERY astute analysis) found a way in which an injected fault on allocation, triggering an OOM condition on commit merge, would result in uffd code becoming confused and treating an error value as if it were a VMA pointer. To avoid this, we make use of this new VMG flag to ensure that this never occurs, utilising the fact that, should we be clearing entire VMAs, we do not wish an OOM event to be reported to us. Many thanks to Pedro Falcato for his excellent analysis and Jann Horn for his insightful and intelligent analysis of the situation, both of whom were instrumental in this fix.

userfaultfd: fix PTE unmapping stack-allocated PTE copies

2025-03-06T05:36:18+00:00

Current implementation of move_pages_pte() copies source and destination PTEs in order to detect concurrent changes to PTEs involved in the move. However these copies are also used to unmap the PTEs, which will fail if CONFIG_HIGHPTE is enabled because the copies are allocated on the stack. Fix this by using the actual PTEs which were kmap()ed.

userfaultfd: do not block on locking a large folio with raised refcount

2025-03-06T05:36:17+00:00

Lokesh recently raised an issue about UFFDIO_MOVE getting into a deadlock state when it goes into split_folio() with raised folio refcount. split_folio() expects the reference count to be exactly mapcount + num_pages_in_folio + 1 (see can_split_folio()) and fails with EAGAIN otherwise. If multiple processes are trying to move the same large folio, they raise the refcount (all tasks succeed in that) then one of them succeeds in locking the folio, while others will block in folio_lock() while keeping the refcount raised. The winner of this race will proceed with calling split_folio() and will fail returning EAGAIN to the caller and unlocking the folio. The next competing process will get the folio locked and will go through the same flow. In the meantime the original winner will be retried and will block in folio_lock(), getting into the queue of waiting processes only to repeat the same path. All this results in a livelock. An easy fix would be to avoid waiting for the folio lock while holding folio refcount, similar to madvise_free_huge_pmd() where folio lock is acquired before raising the folio refcount. Since we lock and take a refcount of the folio while holding the PTE lock, changing the order of these operations should not break anything. Modify move_pages_pte() to try locking the folio first and if that fails and the folio is large then return EAGAIN without touching the folio refcount. If the folio is single-page then split_folio() is not called, so we don't have this issue. Lokesh has a reproducer [1] and I verified that this change fixes the issue.

mm: fix kernel BUG when userfaultfd_move encounters swapcache

2025-03-06T05:36:17+00:00

userfaultfd_move() checks whether the PTE entry is present or a swap entry. - If the PTE entry is present, move_present_pte() handles folio migration by setting: src_folio->index = linear_page_index(dst_vma, dst_addr); - If the PTE entry is a swap entry, move_swap_pte() simply copies the PTE to the new dst_addr. This approach is incorrect because, even if the PTE is a swap entry, it can still reference a folio that remains in the swap cache. This creates a race window between steps 2 and 4. 1. add_to_swap: The folio is added to the swapcache. 2. try_to_unmap: PTEs are converted to swap entries. 3. pageout: The folio is written back. 4. Swapcache is cleared. If userfaultfd_move() occurs in the window between steps 2 and 4, after the swap PTE has been moved to the destination, accessing the destination triggers do_swap_page(), which may locate the folio in the swapcache. However, since the folio's index has not been updated to match the destination VMA, do_swap_page() will detect a mismatch. This can result in two critical issues depending on the system configuration. If KSM is disabled, both small and large folios can trigger a BUG during the add_rmap operation due to: page_pgoff(folio, page) != linear_page_index(vma, address) [ 13.336953] page: refcount:6 mapcount:1 mapping:00000000f43db19c index:0xffffaf150 pfn:0x4667c [ 13.337520] head: order:2 mapcount:1 entire_mapcount:0 nr_pages_mapped:1 pincount:0 [ 13.337716] memcg:ffff00000405f000 [ 13.337849] anon flags: 0x3fffc0000020459(locked|uptodate|dirty|owner_priv_1|head|swapbacked|node=0|zone=0|lastcpupid=0xffff) [ 13.338630] raw: 03fffc0000020459 ffff80008507b538 ffff80008507b538 ffff000006260361 [ 13.338831] raw: 0000000ffffaf150 0000000000004000 0000000600000000 ffff00000405f000 [ 13.339031] head: 03fffc0000020459 ffff80008507b538 ffff80008507b538 ffff000006260361 [ 13.339204] head: 0000000ffffaf150 0000000000004000 0000000600000000 ffff00000405f000 [ 13.339375] head: 03fffc0000000202 fffffdffc0199f01 ffffffff00000000 0000000000000001 [ 13.339546] head: 0000000000000004 0000000000000000 00000000ffffffff 0000000000000000 [ 13.339736] page dumped because: VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(page_pgoff(folio, page) != linear_page_index(vma, address)) [ 13.340190] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 13.340316] kernel BUG at mm/rmap.c:1380!

This patch also checks the swapcache when handling swap entries. If a match is found in the swapcache, it processes it similarly to a present PTE. However, there are some differences. For example, the folio is no longer exclusive because folio_try_share_anon_rmap_pte() is performed during unmapping. Furthermore, in the case of swapcache, the folio has already been unmapped, eliminating the risk of concurrent rmap walks and removing the need to acquire src_folio's anon_vma or lock. Note that for large folios, in the swapcache handling path, we directly return -EBUSY since split_folio() will return -EBUSY regardless if the folio is under writeback or unmapped. This is not an urgent issue, so a follow-up patch may address it separately.

mm: userfaultfd: recheck dst_pmd entry in move_pages_pte()

2025-01-14T06:40:46+00:00

In move_pages_pte(), since dst_pte needs to be none, the subsequent pte_same() check cannot prevent the dst_pte page from being freed concurrently, so we also need to abtain dst_pmdval and recheck pmd_same(). Otherwise, once we support empty PTE page reclaimation for anonymous pages, it may result in moving the src_pte page into the dts_pte page that is about to be freed by RCU.

mm,tmpfs: consider end of file write in shmem_is_huge

2024-09-09T23:39:12+00:00

Take the end of a file write into consideration when deciding whether or not to use huge pages for tmpfs files when the tmpfs filesystem is mounted with huge=within_size This allows large writes that append to the end of a file to automatically use large pages. Doing 4MB sequential writes without fallocate to a 16GB tmpfs file with fio. The numbers without THP or with huge=always stay the same, but the performance with huge=within_size now matches that of huge=always. huge before after 4kB pages 1560 MB/s 1560 MB/s within_size 1560 MB/s 4720 MB/s always: 4720 MB/s 4720 MB/s [akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style cleanups] Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20240903111928.7171e60c@imladris.surriel.com Signed-off-by: Rik van Riel Reviewed-by: Baolin Wang Tested-by: Baolin Wang Cc: Darrick J.
