[ Upstream commit 70feee0e1ef331b22cc51f383d532a0d043fbdcc ]

Kefeng reported that when running the follow test, the mlock count in
meminfo will increase permanently:

 [1] testcase
 linux:~ # cat test_mlockal
 grep Mlocked /proc/meminfo
  for j in `seq 0 10`
  do
 	for i in `seq 4 15`
 	do
 		./p_mlockall &gt;&gt; log &amp;
 	done
 	sleep 0.2
 done
 # wait some time to let mlock counter decrease and 5s may not enough
 sleep 5
 grep Mlocked /proc/meminfo

 linux:~ # cat p_mlockall.c
 #include &lt;sys/mman.h&gt;
 #include &lt;stdlib.h&gt;
 #include &lt;stdio.h&gt;

 #define SPACE_LEN	4096

 int main(int argc, char ** argv)
 {
	 	int ret;
	 	void *adr = malloc(SPACE_LEN);
	 	if (!adr)
	 		return -1;

	 	ret = mlockall(MCL_CURRENT | MCL_FUTURE);
	 	printf("mlcokall ret = %d\n", ret);

	 	ret = munlockall();
	 	printf("munlcokall ret = %d\n", ret);

	 	free(adr);
	 	return 0;
	 }

In __munlock_pagevec() we should decrement NR_MLOCK for each page where
we clear the PageMlocked flag.  Commit 1ebb7cc6a583 ("mm: munlock: batch
NR_MLOCK zone state updates") has introduced a bug where we don't
decrement NR_MLOCK for pages where we clear the flag, but fail to
isolate them from the lru list (e.g.  when the pages are on some other
cpu's percpu pagevec).  Since PageMlocked stays cleared, the NR_MLOCK
accounting gets permanently disrupted by this.

Fix it by counting the number of page whose PageMlock flag is cleared.

[ Upstream commit 7162a1e87b3e380133dadc7909081bb70d0a7041 ]

Tetsuo Handa reported underflow of NR_MLOCK on munlock.

Testcase:

    #include &lt;stdio.h&gt;
    #include &lt;stdlib.h&gt;
    #include &lt;sys/mman.h&gt;

    #define BASE ((void *)0x400000000000)
    #define SIZE (1UL &lt;&lt; 21)

    int main(int argc, char *argv[])
    {
        void *addr;

        system("grep Mlocked /proc/meminfo");
        addr = mmap(BASE, SIZE, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
                MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_LOCKED | MAP_FIXED,
                -1, 0);
        if (addr == MAP_FAILED)
            printf("mmap() failed\n"), exit(1);
        munmap(addr, SIZE);
        system("grep Mlocked /proc/meminfo");
        return 0;
    }

It happens on munlock_vma_page() due to unfortunate choice of nr_pages
data type:

    __mod_zone_page_state(zone, NR_MLOCK, -nr_pages);

For unsigned int nr_pages, implicitly casted to long in
__mod_zone_page_state(), it becomes something around UINT_MAX.

munlock_vma_page() usually called for THP as small pages go though
pagevec.

Let's make nr_pages signed int.

Similar fixes in 6cdb18ad98a4 ("mm/vmstat: fix overflow in
mod_zone_page_state()") used `long' type, but `int' here is OK for a
count of the number of sub-pages in a huge page.

It's odd that we have populate_vma_page_range() and __mm_populate() in
mm/mlock.c.  It's implementation of generic memory population and mlocking
is one of possible side effect, if VM_LOCKED is set.

__get_user_pages() is core of the implementation.  Let's move the code
into mm/gup.c.

__mlock_vma_pages_range() doesn't necessarily mlock pages.  It depends on
vma flags.  The same codepath is used for MAP_POPULATE.

Let's rename __mlock_vma_pages_range() to populate_vma_page_range().

This patch also drops mlock_vma_pages_range() references from
documentation.  It has gone in cea10a19b797 ("mm: directly use
__mlock_vma_pages_range() in find_extend_vma()").

<title>mm: rename FOLL_MLOCK to FOLL_POPULATE</title>

<content type='text'>
After commit a1fde08c74e9 ("VM: skip the stack guard page lookup in
get_user_pages only for mlock") FOLL_MLOCK has lost its original
meaning: we don't necessarily mlock the page if the flags is set -- we
also take VM_LOCKED into consideration.

Since we use the same codepath for __mm_populate(), let's rename
FOLL_MLOCK to FOLL_POPULATE.

<content type='text'>
A userspace call to mmap(MAP_LOCKED) may result in the successful locking
of memory while also producing a confusing audit log denial.  can_do_mlock
checks capable and rlimit.  If either of these return positive
can_do_mlock returns true.  The capable check leads to an LSM hook used by
apparmour and selinux which produce the audit denial.  Reordering so
rlimit is checked first eliminates the denial on success, only recording a
denial when the lock is unsuccessful as a result of the denial.
