mm: hugetlb_vmemmap: fix a race between vmemmap pmd split
The local variable @page in __split_vmemmap_huge_pmd() to obtain a pmd
page without holding page_table_lock may possiblely get the page table
page instead of a huge pmd page.
The effect may be in set_pte_at() since we may pass an invalid page
struct, if set_pte_at() wants to access the page struct (e.g.
CONFIG_PAGE_TABLE_CHECK is enabled), it may crash the kernel.
So fix it. And inline __split_vmemmap_huge_pmd() since it only has one
user.

mm: ptep_get() conversion
Convert all instances of direct pte_t* dereferencing to instead use ptep_get() helper. This means that by default, the accesses change from a C dereference to a READ_ONCE(). This is technically the correct thing to do since where pgtables are modified by HW (for access/dirty) they are volatile and therefore we should always ensure READ_ONCE() semantics. But more importantly, by always using the helper, it can be overridden by the architecture to fully encapsulate the contents of the pte. Arch code is deliberately not converted, as the arch code knows best. It is intended that arch code (arm64) will override the default with its own implementation that can (e.g.) hide certain bits from the core code, or determine young/dirty status by mixing in state from another source. Conversion was done using Coccinelle: ---- // $ make coccicheck \ // COCCI=ptepget.cocci \ // SPFLAGS="--include-headers" \ // MODE=patch virtual patch @ depends on patch @ pte_t *v; @@ - *v + ptep_get(v) ---- Then reviewed and hand-edited to avoid multiple unnecessary calls to ptep_get(), instead opting to store the result of a single call in a variable, where it is correct to do so. This aims to negate any cost of READ_ONCE() and will benefit arch-overrides that may be more complex. Included is a fix for an issue in an earlier version of this patch that was pointed out by kernel test robot. The issue arose because config MMU=n elides definition of the ptep helper functions, including ptep_get(). HUGETLB_PAGE=n configs still define a simple huge_ptep_clear_flush() for linking purposes, which dereferences the ptep. So when both configs are disabled, this caused a build error because ptep_get() is not defined. Fix by continuing to do a direct dereference when MMU=n. This is safe because for this config the arch code cannot be trying to virtualize the ptes because none of the ptep helpers are defined.

mm: hugetlb_vmemmap: provide stronger vmemmap allocation guarantees
HugeTLB pages have a struct page optimizations where struct pages for tail pages are freed. However, when HugeTLB pages are destroyed, the memory for struct pages (vmemmap) need to be allocated again. Currently, __GFP_NORETRY flag is used to allocate the memory for vmemmap, but given that this flag makes very little effort to actually reclaim memory the returning of huge pages back to the system can be problem. Lets use __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL instead. This flag is also performs graceful reclaim without causing ooms, but at least it may perform a few retries, and will fail only when there is genuinely little amount of unused memory in the system. Freeing a 1G page requires 16M of free memory. A machine might need to be reconfigured from one task to another, and release a large number of 1G pages back to the system if allocating 16M fails, the release won't work.

sysctl: fix proc_dobool() usability
Currently proc_dobool expects a (bool *) in table->data, but sizeof(int)
in table->maxsize, because it uses do_proc_dointvec() directly.
This is unsafe for at least two reasons:
1. A sysctl table definition may use { .data = &variable, .maxsize =
sizeof(variable) }, not realizing that this makes the sysctl unusable
(see the Fixes: tag) and that they need to use the completely
counterintuitive sizeof(int) instead.
2. proc_dobool() will currently try to parse an array of values if given
.maxsize >= 2*sizeof(int), but will try to write values of type bool
by offsets of sizeof(int), so it will not work correctly with neither
an (int *) nor a (bool *). There is no .maxsize validation to prevent
this.
Fix this by:
1. Constraining proc_dobool() to allow only one value and .maxsize ==
sizeof(bool).
2. Wrapping the original struct ctl_table in a temporary one with .data
pointing to a local int variable and .maxsize set to sizeof(int) and
passing this one to proc_dointvec(), converting the value to/from
bool as needed (using proc_dou8vec_minmax() as an example).
3. Extending sysctl_check_table() to enforce proc_dobool() expectations.
4. Fixing the proc_dobool() docstring (it was just copy-pasted from
proc_douintvec, apparently...).
5. Converting all existing proc_dobool() users to set .maxsize to
sizeof(bool) instead of sizeof(int).

mm/hugetlb_vmemmap: remap head page to newly allocated page
Today with `hugetlb_free_vmemmap=on` the struct page memory that is freed back to page allocator is as following: for a 2M hugetlb page it will reuse the first 4K vmemmap page to remap the remaining 7 vmemmap pages, and for a 1G hugetlb it will remap the remaining 4095 vmemmap pages. Essentially, that means that it breaks the first 4K of a potentially contiguous chunk of memory of 32K (for 2M hugetlb pages) or 16M (for 1G hugetlb pages). For this reason the memory that it's free back to page allocator cannot be used for hugetlb to allocate huge pages of the same size, but rather only of a smaller huge page size: Trying to assign a 64G node to hugetlb (on a 128G 2node guest, each node having 64G): * Before allocation: Free pages count per migrate type at order 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 ... Node 0, zone Normal, type Movable 340 100 32 15 1 2 0 0 0 1 15558 $ echo 32768 > /sys/devices/system/node/node0/hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages $ cat /sys/devices/system/node/node0/hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages 31987 * After: Node 0, zone Normal, type Movable 30893 32006 31515 7 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Notice how the memory freed back are put back into 4K / 8K / 16K page pools. And it allocates a total of 31987 pages (63974M). To fix this behaviour rather than remapping second vmemmap page (thus breaking the contiguous block of memory backing the struct pages) repopulate the first vmemmap page with a new one. We allocate and copy from the currently mapped vmemmap page, and then remap it later on. The same algorithm works if there's a pre initialized walk::reuse_page and the head page doesn't need to be skipped and instead we remap it when the @addr being changed is the @reuse_addr. The new head page is allocated in vmemmap_remap_free() given that on restore there's no need for functional change. Note that, because right now one hugepage is remapped at a time, thus only one free 4K page at a time is needed to remap the head page. Should it fail to allocate said new page, it reuses the one that's already mapped just like before. As a result, for every 64G of contiguous hugepages it can give back 1G more of contiguous memory per 64G, while needing in total 128M new 4K pages (for 2M hugetlb) or 256k (for 1G hugetlb). After the changes, try to assign a 64G node to hugetlb (on a 128G 2node guest, each node with 64G): * Before allocation Free pages count per migrate type at order 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 ... Node 0, zone Normal, type Movable 1 1 1 0 0 1 0 0 1 1 15564 $ echo 32768 > /sys/devices/system/node/node0/hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages $ cat /sys/devices/system/node/node0/hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages 32394 * After: Node 0, zone Normal, type Movable 0 50 97 108 96 81 70 46 18 0 0 In the example above, 407 more hugeltb 2M pages are allocated i.e. 814M out of the 32394 (64788M) allocated. So the memory freed back is indeed being used back in hugetlb and there's no massive order-0..order-2 pages accumulated unused.

mm: hugetlb_vmemmap: improve hugetlb_vmemmap code readability
There is a discussion about the name of hugetlb_vmemmap_alloc/free in
thread [1]. The suggestion suggested by David is rename "alloc/free" to
"optimize/restore" to make functionalities clearer to users, "optimize"
means the function will optimize vmemmap pages, while "restore" means
restoring its vmemmap pages discared before. This commit does this.
Another discussion is the confusion RESERVE_VMEMMAP_NR isn't used
explicitly for vmemmap_addr but implicitly for vmemmap_end in
hugetlb_vmemmap_alloc/free. David suggested we can compute what
hugetlb_vmemmap_init() does now at runtime. We do not need to worry for
the overhead of computing at runtime since the calculation is simple
enough and those functions are not in a hot path. This commit has the
following improvements:
1) The function suffixed name ("optimize/restore") is more expressive.
2) The logic becomes less weird in hugetlb_vmemmap_optimize/restore().
3) The hugetlb_vmemmap_init() does not need to be exported anymore.
4) A ->optimize_vmemmap_pages field in struct hstate is killed.
5) There is only one place where checks is_power_of_2(sizeof(struct
page)) instead of two places.
6) Add more comments for hugetlb_vmemmap_optimize/restore().
7) For external users, hugetlb_optimize_vmemmap_pages() is used for
detecting if the HugeTLB's vmemmap pages is optimizable originally.
In this commit, it is killed and we introduce a new helper
hugetlb_vmemmap_optimizable() to replace it. The name is more
expressive.

mm: hugetlb_vmemmap: optimize vmemmap_optimize_mode handling
We hold an another reference to hugetlb_optimize_vmemmap_key when making vmemmap_optimize_mode on, because we use static_key to tell memory_hotplug that memory_hotplug.memmap_on_memory should be overridden. However, this rule has gone when we have introduced PageVmemmapSelfHosted. Therefore, we could simplify vmemmap_optimize_mode handling by not holding an another reference to hugetlb_optimize_vmemmap_key. This also means that we not incur the extra page_fixed_fake_head checks if there are no vmemmap optinmized hugetlb pages after this change.

mm: memory_hotplug: make hugetlb_optimize_vmemmap compatible with memmap_on_memory
For now, the feature of hugetlb_free_vmemmap is not compatible with the feature of memory_hotplug.memmap_on_memory, and hugetlb_free_vmemmap takes precedence over memory_hotplug.memmap_on_memory. However, someone wants to make memory_hotplug.memmap_on_memory takes precedence over hugetlb_free_vmemmap since memmap_on_memory makes it more likely to succeed memory hotplug in close-to-OOM situations. So the decision of making hugetlb_free_vmemmap take precedence is not wise and elegant. The proper approach is to have hugetlb_vmemmap.c do the check whether the section which the HugeTLB pages belong to can be optimized. If the section's vmemmap pages are allocated from the added memory block itself, hugetlb_free_vmemmap should refuse to optimize the vmemmap, otherwise, do the optimization. Then both kernel parameters are compatible. So this patch introduces VmemmapSelfHosted to mask any non-optimizable vmemmap pages. The hugetlb_vmemmap can use this flag to detect if a vmemmap page can be optimized.

mm: hugetlb_vmemmap: add hugetlb_optimize_vmemmap sysctl
We must add hugetlb_free_vmemmap=on (or "off") to the boot cmdline and
reboot the server to enable or disable the feature of optimizing vmemmap
pages associated with HugeTLB pages. However, rebooting usually takes a
long time. So add a sysctl to enable or disable the feature at runtime
without rebooting. Why we need this? There are 3 use cases.
1) The feature of minimizing overhead of struct page associated with
each HugeTLB is disabled by default without passing
"hugetlb_free_vmemmap=on" to the boot cmdline. When we (ByteDance)
deliver the servers to the users who want to enable this feature, they
have to configure the grub (change boot cmdline) and reboot the
servers, whereas rebooting usually takes a long time (we have thousands
of servers). It's a very bad experience for the users. So we need a
approach to enable this feature after rebooting. This is a use case in
our practical environment.
2) Some use cases are that HugeTLB pages are allocated 'on the fly'
instead of being pulled from the HugeTLB pool, those workloads would be
affected with this feature enabled. Those workloads could be
identified by the characteristics of they never explicitly allocating
huge pages with 'nr_hugepages' but only set 'nr_overcommit_hugepages'
and then let the pages be allocated from the buddy allocator at fault
time. We can confirm it is a real use case from the commit

mm: hugetlb_vmemmap: use kstrtobool for hugetlb_vmemmap param parsing
Use kstrtobool rather than open coding "on" and "off" parsing in mm/hugetlb_vmemmap.c, which is more powerful to handle all kinds of parameters like 'Yy1Nn0' or [oO][NnFf] for "on" and "off".

mm: hugetlb_vmemmap: disable hugetlb_optimize_vmemmap when struct page crosses page boundaries
Patch series "add hugetlb_optimize_vmemmap sysctl", v11. This series aims to add hugetlb_optimize_vmemmap sysctl to enable or disable the feature of optimizing vmemmap pages associated with HugeTLB pages. This patch (of 4): If the size of "struct page" is not the power of two but with the feature of minimizing overhead of struct page associated with each HugeTLB is enabled, then the vmemmap pages of HugeTLB will be corrupted after remapping (panic is about to happen in theory). But this only exists when !CONFIG_MEMCG && !CONFIG_SLUB on x86_64. However, it is not a conventional configuration nowadays. So it is not a real word issue, just the result of a code review. But we cannot prevent anyone from configuring that combined configure. This hugetlb_optimize_vmemmap should be disable in this case to fix this issue.

mm: hugetlb: replace hugetlb_free_vmemmap_enabled with a static_key
The page_fixed_fake_head() is used throughout memory management and the conditional check requires checking a global variable, although the overhead of this check may be small, it increases when the memory cache comes under pressure. Also, the global variable will not be modified after system boot, so it is very appropriate to use static key machanism.

mm: hugetlb: free the 2nd vmemmap page associated with each HugeTLB page
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 | ---------------^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^
| | +-----------+ | | | | | |
| | | 2 | -----------------+ | | | | |
| | +-----------+ | | | | |
| | | 3 | -------------------+ | | | |
| | +-----------+ | | | |
| | | 4 | ---------------------+ | | |
| 2MB | +-----------+ | | |
| | | 5 | -----------------------+ | |
| | +-----------+ | |
| | | 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.

mm: hugetlb: introduce CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE_FREE_VMEMMAP_DEFAULT_ON
When using HUGETLB_PAGE_FREE_VMEMMAP, the freeing unused vmemmap pages associated with each HugeTLB page is default off. Now the vmemmap is PMD mapped. So there is no side effect when this feature is enabled with no HugeTLB pages in the system. Someone may want to enable this feature in the compiler time instead of using boot command line. So add a config to make it default on when someone do not want to enable it via command line.

mm: sparsemem: split the huge PMD mapping of vmemmap pages
Patch series "Split huge PMD mapping of vmemmap pages", v4. In order to reduce the difficulty of code review in series[1]. We disable huge PMD mapping of vmemmap pages when that feature is enabled. In this series, we do not disable huge PMD mapping of vmemmap pages anymore. We will split huge PMD mapping when needed. When HugeTLB pages are freed from the pool we do not attempt coalasce and move back to a PMD mapping because it is much more complex. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-doc/20210510030027.56044-1-songmuchun@bytedance.com/ This patch (of 3): In [1], PMD mappings of vmemmap pages were disabled if the the feature hugetlb_free_vmemmap was enabled. This was done to simplify the initial implementation of vmmemap freeing for hugetlb pages. Now, remove this simplification by allowing PMD mapping and switching to PTE mappings as needed for allocated hugetlb pages. When a hugetlb page is allocated, the vmemmap page tables are walked to free vmemmap pages. During this walk, split huge PMD mappings to PTE mappings as required. In the unlikely case PTE pages can not be allocated, return error(ENOMEM) and do not optimize vmemmap of the hugetlb page. When HugeTLB pages are freed from the pool, we do not attempt to coalesce and move back to a PMD mapping because it is much more complex.

mm: hugetlb: alloc the vmemmap pages associated with each HugeTLB page
When we free a HugeTLB page to the buddy allocator, we need to allocate
the vmemmap pages associated with it. However, we may not be able to
allocate the vmemmap pages when the system is under memory pressure. In
this case, we just refuse to free the HugeTLB page. This changes behavior
in some corner cases as listed below:
1) Failing to free a huge page triggered by the user (decrease nr_pages).
User needs to try again later.
2) Failing to free a surplus huge page when freed by the application.
Try again later when freeing a huge page next time.
3) Failing to dissolve a free huge page on ZONE_MOVABLE via
offline_pages().
This can happen when we have plenty of ZONE_MOVABLE memory, but
not enough kernel memory to allocate vmemmmap pages. We may even
be able to migrate huge page contents, but will not be able to
dissolve the source huge page. This will prevent an offline
operation and is unfortunate as memory offlining is expected to
succeed on movable zones. Users that depend on memory hotplug
to succeed for movable zones should carefully consider whether the
memory savings gained from this feature are worth the risk of
possibly not being able to offline memory in certain situations.
4) Failing to dissolve a huge page on CMA/ZONE_MOVABLE via
alloc_contig_range() - once we have that handling in place. Mainly
affects CMA and virtio-mem.
Similar to 3). virito-mem will handle migration errors gracefully.
CMA might be able to fallback on other free areas within the CMA
region.
Vmemmap pages are allocated from the page freeing context. In order for
those allocations to be not disruptive (e.g. trigger oom killer)
__GFP_NORETRY is used. hugetlb_lock is dropped for the allocation because
a non sleeping allocation would be too fragile and it could fail too
easily under memory pressure. GFP_ATOMIC or other modes to access memory
reserves is not used because we want to prevent consuming reserves under
heavy hugetlb freeing.

mm: hugetlb: defer freeing of HugeTLB pages
In the subsequent patch, we should allocate the vmemmap pages when freeing a HugeTLB page. But update_and_free_page() can be called under any context, so we cannot use GFP_KERNEL to allocate vmemmap pages. However, we can defer the actual freeing in a kworker to prevent from using GFP_ATOMIC to allocate the vmemmap pages. The __update_and_free_page() is where the call to allocate vmemmmap pages will be inserted.

mm: hugetlb: free the vmemmap pages associated with each HugeTLB page
Every HugeTLB has more than one struct page structure. We __know__ that we only use the first 4 (__NR_USED_SUBPAGE) struct page structures to store metadata associated with each HugeTLB. There are a lot of struct page structures associated with each HugeTLB page. For tail pages, the value of compound_head is the same. So we can reuse first page of tail page structures. We map the virtual addresses of the remaining pages of tail page structures to the first tail page struct, and then free these page frames. Therefore, we need to reserve two pages as vmemmap areas. When we allocate a HugeTLB page from the buddy, we can free some vmemmap pages associated with each HugeTLB page. It is more appropriate to do it in the prep_new_huge_page(). The free_vmemmap_pages_per_hpage(), which indicates how many vmemmap pages associated with a HugeTLB page can be freed, returns zero for now, which means the feature is disabled. We will enable it once all the infrastructure is there.
