As a small zero page, huge zero page should not be accounted in smaps
report as normal page.
For small pages we rely on vm_normal_page() to filter out zero page, but
vm_normal_page() is not designed to handle pmds. We only get here due
hackish cast pmd to pte in smaps_pte_range() -- pte and pmd format is not
necessary compatible on each and every architecture.
Let's add separate codepath to handle pmds. follow_trans_huge_pmd() will
detect huge zero page for us.
We would need pmd_dirty() helper to do this properly. The patch adds it
to THP-enabled architectures which don't yet have one.

MPX-enabled applications using large swaths of memory can
potentially have large numbers of bounds tables in process
address space to save bounds information. These tables can take
up huge swaths of memory (as much as 80% of the memory on the
system) even if we clean them up aggressively. In the worst-case
scenario, the tables can be 4x the size of the data structure
being tracked. IOW, a 1-page structure can require 4 bounds-table
pages.
Being this huge, our expectation is that folks using MPX are
going to be keen on figuring out how much memory is being
dedicated to it. So we need a way to track memory use for MPX.
If we want to specifically track MPX VMAs we need to be able to
distinguish them from normal VMAs, and keep them from getting
merged with normal VMAs. A new VM_ flag set only on MPX VMAs does
both of those things. With this flag, MPX bounds-table VMAs can
be distinguished from other VMAs, and userspace can also walk
/proc/$pid/smaps to get memory usage for MPX.
In addition to this flag, we also introduce a special ->vm_ops
specific to MPX VMAs (see the patch "add MPX specific mmap
interface"), but currently different ->vm_ops do not by
themselves prevent VMA merging, so we still need this flag.
We understand that VM_ flags are scarce and are open to other
options.

For VMAs that don't want write notifications, PTEs created for read faults
have their write bit set. If the read fault happens after VM_SOFTDIRTY is
cleared, then the PTE's softdirty bit will remain clear after subsequent
writes.
Here's a simple code snippet to demonstrate the bug:
char* m = mmap(NULL, getpagesize(), PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_SHARED, -1, 0);
system("echo 4 > /proc/$PPID/clear_refs"); /* clear VM_SOFTDIRTY */
assert(*m == '\0'); /* new PTE allows write access */
assert(!soft_dirty(x));
*m = 'x'; /* should dirty the page */
assert(soft_dirty(x)); /* fails */
With this patch, write notifications are enabled when VM_SOFTDIRTY is
cleared. Furthermore, to avoid unnecessary faults, write notifications
are disabled when VM_SOFTDIRTY is set.
As a side effect of enabling and disabling write notifications with
care, this patch fixes a bug in mprotect where vm_page_prot bits set by
drivers were zapped on mprotect. An analogous bug was fixed in mmap by
commit c9d0bf2414 ("mm: uncached vma support with writenotify").

If a /proc/pid/pagemap read spans a [VMA, an unmapped region, then a
VM_SOFTDIRTY VMA], the virtual pages in the unmapped region are reported
as softdirty. Here's a program to demonstrate the bug:
int main() {
const uint64_t PAGEMAP_SOFTDIRTY = 1ul << 55;
uint64_t pme[3];
int fd = open("/proc/self/pagemap", O_RDONLY);;
char *m = mmap(NULL, 3 * getpagesize(), PROT_READ,
MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_SHARED, -1, 0);
munmap(m + getpagesize(), getpagesize());
pread(fd, pme, 24, (unsigned long) m / getpagesize() * 8);
assert(pme[0] & PAGEMAP_SOFTDIRTY); /* passes */
assert(!(pme[1] & PAGEMAP_SOFTDIRTY)); /* fails */
assert(pme[2] & PAGEMAP_SOFTDIRTY); /* passes */
return 0;
}
(Note that all pages in new VMAs are softdirty until cleared).
Tested:
Used the program given above. I'm going to include this code in
a selftest in the future.

9e7814404b "hold task->mempolicy while numa_maps scans." fixed the
race with the exiting task but this is not enough.
The current code assumes that get_vma_policy(task) should either see
task->mempolicy == NULL or it should be equal to ->task_mempolicy saved
by hold_task_mempolicy(), so we can never race with __mpol_put(). But
this can only work if we can't race with do_set_mempolicy(), and thus
we can't race with another do_set_mempolicy() or do_exit() after that.
However, do_set_mempolicy()->down_write(mmap_sem) can not prevent this
race. This task can exec, change it's ->mm, and call do_set_mempolicy()
after that; in this case they take 2 different locks.
Change hold_task_mempolicy() to use get_task_policy(), it never returns
NULL, and change show_numa_map() to use __get_vma_policy() or fall back
to proc_priv->task_mempolicy.
Note: this is the minimal fix, we will cleanup this code later. I think
hold_task_mempolicy() and release_task_mempolicy() should die, we can
move this logic into show_numa_map(). Or we can move get_task_policy()
outside of ->mmap_sem and !CONFIG_NUMA code at least.

- Rename vm_is_stack() to task_of_stack() and change it to return
"struct task_struct *" rather than the global (and thus wrong in
general) pid_t.
- Add the new pid_of_stack() helper which calls task_of_stack() and
uses the right namespace to report the correct pid_t.
Unfortunately we need to define this helper twice, in task_mmu.c
and in task_nommu.c. perhaps it makes sense to add fs/proc/util.c
and move at least pid_of_stack/task_of_stack there to avoid the
code duplication.
- Change show_map_vma() and show_numa_map() to use the new helper.

Add the "last_addr" optimization back. Like before, every ->show()
method checks !seq_overflow() and sets m->version = vma->vm_start.
However, it also checks that m_next_vma(vma) != NULL, otherwise it
sets m->version = -1 for the lockless "EOF" fast-path in m_start().
m_start() can simply do find_vma() + m_next_vma() if last_addr is
not zero, the code looks clear and simple and this case is clearly
separated from "scan vmas" path.

Now that m->version is gone we can cleanup m_start(). In particular,
- Remove the "unsigned long" typecast, m->index can't be negative
or exceed ->map_count. But lets use "unsigned int pos" to make
it clear that "pos < map_count" is safe.
- Remove the unnecessary "vma != NULL" check in the main loop. It
can't be NULL unless we have a vm bug.
- This also means that "pos < map_count" case can simply return the
valid vma and avoid "goto" and subsequent checks.

m_start() carefully documents, checks, and sets "m->version = -1" if
we are going to return NULL. The only problem is that we will be never
called again if m_start() returns NULL, so this is simply pointless
and misleading.
Otoh, ->show() methods m->version = 0 if vma == tail_vma and this is
just wrong, we want -1 in this case. And in fact we also want -1 if
->vm_next == NULL and ->tail_vma == NULL.
And it is not used consistently, the "scan vmas" loop in m_start()
should update last_addr too.
Finally, imo the whole "last_addr" logic in m_start() looks horrible.
find_vma(last_addr) is called unconditionally even if we are not going
to use the result. But the main problem is that this code participates
in tail_vma-or-NULL mess, and this looks simply unfixable.
Remove this optimization. We will add it back after some cleanups.

1. Kill the first "vma != NULL" check. Firstly this is not possible,
m_next() won't be called if ->start() or the previous ->next()
returns NULL.
And if it was possible the 2nd "vma != tail_vma" check is buggy,
we should not wrongly return ->tail_vma.
2. Make this function readable. The logic is very simple, we should
return check "vma != tail" once and return "vm_next || tail_vma".

m_start() drops ->mmap_sem and does mmput() if it retuns vsyscall
vma. This is because in this case m_stop()->vma_stop() obviously
can't use gate_vma->vm_mm.
Now that we have proc_maps_private->mm we can simplify this logic:
- Change m_start() to return with ->mmap_sem held unless it returns
IS_ERR_OR_NULL().
- Change vma_stop() to use priv->mm and avoid the ugly vma checks,
this makes "vm_area_struct *vma" unnecessary.
- This also allows m_start() to use vm_stop().
- Cleanup m_next() to follow the new locking rule.
Note: m_stop() looks very ugly, and this temporary uglifies it
even more. Fixed by the next change.

A simple test-case from Kirill Shutemov
cat /proc/self/maps >/dev/null
chmod +x /proc/self/net/packet
exec /proc/self/net/packet
makes lockdep unhappy, cat/exec take seq_file->lock + cred_guard_mutex in
the opposite order.
It's a false positive and probably we should not allow "chmod +x" on proc
files. Still I think that we should avoid mm_access() and cred_guard_mutex
in sys_read() paths, security checking should happen at open time. Besides,
this doesn't even look right if the task changes its ->mm between m_stop()
and m_start().
Add the new "mm_struct *mm" member into struct proc_maps_private and change
proc_maps_open() to initialize it using proc_mem_open(). Change m_start() to
use priv->mm if atomic_inc_not_zero(mm_users) succeeds or return NULL (eof)
otherwise.
The only complication is that proc_maps_open() users should additionally do
mmdrop() in fop->release(), add the new proc_map_release() helper for that.
Note: this is the user-visible change, if the task execs after open("maps")
the new ->mm won't be visible via this file. I hope this is fine, and this
matches /proc/pid/mem bahaviour.

get_gate_vma(priv->task->mm) looks ugly and wrong, task->mm can be NULL or

And in theory this race is not harmless, the task can exec and then later
exit and free the new mm_struct. In this case get_task_mm(oldmm) can't
help, get_gate_vma(task->mm) can read the freed/unmapped memory.

In PTE holes that contain VM_SOFTDIRTY VMAs, unmapped addresses before

VM_SOFTDIRTY in PTE holes but neglected to observe the start of VMAs
returned by find_vma.

After a VMA is created with the VM_SOFTDIRTY flag set, /proc/pid/pagemap
should report that the VMA's virtual pages are soft-dirty until
VM_SOFTDIRTY is cleared (i.e., by the next write of "4" to
/proc/pid/clear_refs). However, pagemap ignores the VM_SOFTDIRTY flag
for virtual addresses that fall in PTE holes (i.e., virtual addresses
that don't have a PMD, PUD, or PGD allocated yet).
To observe this bug, use mmap to create a VMA large enough such that
there's a good chance that the VMA will occupy an unused PMD, then test
the soft-dirty bit on its pages. In practice, I found that a VMA that
covered a PMD's worth of address space was big enough.
This patch adds the necessary VMA lookup to the PTE hole callback in
/proc/pid/pagemap's page walk and sets soft-dirty according to the VMAs'
VM_SOFTDIRTY flag.

The age table walker doesn't check non-present hugetlb entry in common
path, so hugetlb_entry() callbacks must check it. The reason for this
behavior is that some callers want to handle it in its own way.
[ I think that reason is bogus, btw - it should just do what the regular
code does, which is to call the "pte_hole()" function for such hugetlb
entries - Linus]
However, some callers don't check it now, which causes unpredictable
result, for example when we have a race between migrating hugepage and
reading /proc/pid/numa_maps. This patch fixes it by adding !pte_present
checks on buggy callbacks.
This bug exists for years and got visible by introducing hugepage
migration.

clear_refs_write() is called earlier than clear_soft_dirty() and it is
more natural to clear VM_SOFTDIRTY (which belongs to VMA entry but not
PTEs) that early instead of clearing it a way deeper inside call chain.

arch_vma_name sucks. It's a silly hack, and it's annoying to
implement correctly. In fact, AFAICS, even the straightforward x86
implementation is incorrect (I suspect that it breaks if the vdso
mapping is split or gets remapped).
This adds a new vm_ops->name operation that can replace it. The
followup patches will remove all uses of arch_vma_name on x86,
fixing a couple of annoyances in the process.

This patch is a continuation of efforts trying to optimize find_vma(),
avoiding potentially expensive rbtree walks to locate a vma upon faults.
The original approach (https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/11/1/410), where the
largest vma was also cached, ended up being too specific and random,
thus further comparison with other approaches were needed. There are
two things to consider when dealing with this, the cache hit rate and
the latency of find_vma(). Improving the hit-rate does not necessarily
translate in finding the vma any faster, as the overhead of any fancy
caching schemes can be too high to consider.
We currently cache the last used vma for the whole address space, which
provides a nice optimization, reducing the total cycles in find_vma() by
up to 250%, for workloads with good locality. On the other hand, this
simple scheme is pretty much useless for workloads with poor locality.
Analyzing ebizzy runs shows that, no matter how many threads are
running, the mmap_cache hit rate is less than 2%, and in many situations
below 1%.
The proposed approach is to replace this scheme with a small per-thread
cache, maximizing hit rates at a very low maintenance cost.
Invalidations are performed by simply bumping up a 32-bit sequence
number. The only expensive operation is in the rare case of a seq
number overflow, where all caches that share the same address space are
flushed. Upon a miss, the proposed replacement policy is based on the
page number that contains the virtual address in question. Concretely,
the following results are seen on an 80 core, 8 socket x86-64 box:
1) System bootup: Most programs are single threaded, so the per-thread
scheme does improve ~50% hit rate by just adding a few more slots to
the cache.
+----------------+----------+------------------+
| caching scheme | hit-rate | cycles (billion) |
+----------------+----------+------------------+
| baseline | 50.61% | 19.90 |
| patched | 73.45% | 13.58 |
+----------------+----------+------------------+
2) Kernel build: This one is already pretty good with the current
approach as we're dealing with good locality.
+----------------+----------+------------------+
| caching scheme | hit-rate | cycles (billion) |
+----------------+----------+------------------+
| baseline | 75.28% | 11.03 |
| patched | 88.09% | 9.31 |
+----------------+----------+------------------+
3) Oracle 11g Data Mining (4k pages): Similar to the kernel build workload.
+----------------+----------+------------------+
| caching scheme | hit-rate | cycles (billion) |
+----------------+----------+------------------+
| baseline | 70.66% | 17.14 |
| patched | 91.15% | 12.57 |
+----------------+----------+------------------+
4) Ebizzy: There's a fair amount of variation from run to run, but this
approach always shows nearly perfect hit rates, while baseline is just
about non-existent. The amounts of cycles can fluctuate between
anywhere from ~60 to ~116 for the baseline scheme, but this approach
reduces it considerably. For instance, with 80 threads:
+----------------+----------+------------------+
| caching scheme | hit-rate | cycles (billion) |
+----------------+----------+------------------+
| baseline | 1.06% | 91.54 |
| patched | 99.97% | 14.18 |

mpol_to_str() should not fail. Currently, it either fails because the
string buffer is too small or because a string hasn't been defined for a
mempolicy mode.
If a new mempolicy mode is introduced and no string is defined for it,
just warn and return "unknown".
If the buffer is too small, just truncate the string and return, the

Pavel reported that in case if vma area get unmapped and then mapped (or
expanded) in-place, the soft dirty tracker won't be able to recognize this
situation since it works on pte level and ptes are get zapped on unmap,
loosing soft dirty bit of course.
So to resolve this situation we need to track actions on vma level, there
VM_SOFTDIRTY flag comes in. When new vma area created (or old expanded)
we set this bit, and keep it here until application calls for clearing
soft dirty bit.
Thus when user space application track memory changes now it can detect if
vma area is renewed.

Recently we met quite a lot of random kernel panic issues after enabling

to do with following bug in pagemap:
In struct pagemapread:
struct pagemapread {
int pos, len;
pagemap_entry_t *buffer;
bool v2;
};
pos is number of PM_ENTRY_BYTES in buffer, but len is the size of
buffer, it is a mistake to compare pos and len in add_page_map() for
checking buffer is full or not, and this can lead to buffer overflow and
random kernel panic issue.
Correct len to be total number of PM_ENTRY_BYTES in buffer.

Andy Lutomirski reported that if a page with _PAGE_SOFT_DIRTY bit set
get swapped out, the bit is getting lost and no longer available when
pte read back.
To resolve this we introduce _PTE_SWP_SOFT_DIRTY bit which is saved in
pte entry for the page being swapped out. When such page is to be read
back from a swap cache we check for bit presence and if it's there we
clear it and restore the former _PAGE_SOFT_DIRTY bit back.
One of the problem was to find a place in pte entry where we can save
the _PTE_SWP_SOFT_DIRTY bit while page is in swap. The _PAGE_PSE was
chosen for that, it doesn't intersect with swap entry format stored in
pte.

In order to reuse bits from pagemap entries gracefully, we leave the
entries as is but on pagemap open emit a warning in dmesg, that bits
55-60 are about to change in a couple of releases. Next, if a user
issues soft-dirty clear command via the clear_refs file (it was disabled
before v3.9) we assume that he's aware of the new pagemap format, note
that fact and report the bits in pagemap in the new manner.
The "migration strategy" looks like this then:
1. existing users are not affected -- they don't touch soft-dirty feature, thus
see old bits in pagemap, but are warned and have time to fix themselves
2. those who use soft-dirty know about new pagemap format
3. some time soon we get rid of any signs of page-shift in pagemap as well as
this trick with clear-soft-dirty affecting pagemap format.

The soft-dirty is a bit on a PTE which helps to track which pages a task
writes to. In order to do this tracking one should
1. Clear soft-dirty bits from PTEs ("echo 4 > /proc/PID/clear_refs)
2. Wait some time.
3. Read soft-dirty bits (55'th in /proc/PID/pagemap2 entries)
To do this tracking, the writable bit is cleared from PTEs when the
soft-dirty bit is. Thus, after this, when the task tries to modify a
page at some virtual address the #PF occurs and the kernel sets the
soft-dirty bit on the respective PTE.
Note, that although all the task's address space is marked as r/o after
the soft-dirty bits clear, the #PF-s that occur after that are processed
fast. This is so, since the pages are still mapped to physical memory,
and thus all the kernel does is finds this fact out and puts back
writable, dirty and soft-dirty bits on the PTE.
Another thing to note, is that when mremap moves PTEs they are marked
with soft-dirty as well, since from the user perspective mremap modifies
the virtual memory at mremap's new address.

This is the implementation of the soft-dirty bit concept that should
help keep track of changes in user memory, which in turn is very-very
required by the checkpoint-restore project (http://criu.org).
To create a dump of an application(s) we save all the information about
it to files, and the biggest part of such dump is the contents of tasks'
memory. However, there are usage scenarios where it's not required to
get _all_ the task memory while creating a dump. For example, when
doing periodical dumps, it's only required to take full memory dump only
at the first step and then take incremental changes of memory. Another
example is live migration. We copy all the memory to the destination
node without stopping all tasks, then stop them, check for what pages
has changed, dump it and the rest of the state, then copy it to the
destination node. This decreases freeze time significantly.
That said, some help from kernel to watch how processes modify the
contents of their memory is required.
The proposal is to track changes with the help of new soft-dirty bit
this way:
1. First do "echo 4 > /proc/$pid/clear_refs".
At that point kernel clears the soft dirty _and_ the writable bits from all
ptes of process $pid. From now on every write to any page will result in #pf
and the subsequent call to pte_mkdirty/pmd_mkdirty, which in turn will set
the soft dirty flag.
2. Then read the /proc/$pid/pagemap2 and check the soft-dirty bit reported there
(the 55'th one). If set, the respective pte was written to since last call
to clear refs.
The soft-dirty bit is the _PAGE_BIT_HIDDEN one. Although it's used by
kmemcheck, the latter one marks kernel pages with it, while the former
bit is put on user pages so they do not conflict to each other.
This patch:
A new clear-refs type will be added in the next patch, so prepare
code for that.

During c/r sessions we've found that there is no way at the moment to
fetch some VMA associated flags, such as mlock() and madvise().
This leads us to a problem -- we don't know if we should call for mlock()
and/or madvise() after restore on the vma area we're bringing back to
life.
This patch intorduces a new field into "smaps" output called VmFlags,
where all set flags associated with the particular VMA is shown as two
letter mnemonics.
[ Strictly speaking for c/r we only need mlock/madvise bits but it has been
said that providing just a few flags looks somehow inconsistent. So all
flags are here now. ]
This feature is made available on CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE=n kernels, as
other applications may start to use these fields.
The data is encoded in a somewhat awkward two letters mnemonic form, to
encourage userspace to be prepared for fields being added or removed in
the future.

stack-allocated buffer is then printed without ever being stored.
There are two possible error conditions in mpol_to_str():
- if the buffer allocated is insufficient for the string to be stored,
and
- if the mempolicy has an invalid mode.
The first error condition is not triggered in any of the callers to
mpol_to_str(): at least 50 bytes is always allocated on the stack and this
is sufficient for the string to be written. A future patch should convert
this into BUILD_BUG_ON() since we know the maximum strlen possible, but
that's not -rc material.
The second error condition is possible if a race occurs in dropping a
reference to a task's mempolicy causing it to be freed during the read().
The slab poison value is then used for the mode and mpol_to_str() returns
-EINVAL.
This race is only possible because get_vma_policy() believes that
mm->mmap_sem protects task->mempolicy, which isn't true. The exit path
does not hold mm->mmap_sem when dropping the reference or setting
task->mempolicy to NULL: it uses task_lock(task) instead.
Thus, it's required for the caller of a task mempolicy to hold
task_lock(task) while grabbing the mempolicy and reading it. Callers with
a vma policy store their mempolicy earlier and can simply increment the
reference count so it's guaranteed not to be freed.
