822149ba00 BACKPORT: mm/gup: Remove enfornced COW mechanism
With the more strict (but greatly simplified) page reuse logic in
do_wp_page(), we can safely go back to the world where cow is not
enforced with writes.

This essentially reverts commit 17839856fd58 ("gup: document and work
around 'COW can break either way' issue").  There are some context
differences due to some changes later on around it:

  2170ecfa7688 ("drm/i915: convert get_user_pages() --> pin_user_pages()", 2020-06-03)
  376a34efa4ee ("mm/gup: refactor and de-duplicate gup_fast() code", 2020-06-03)

Some lines moved back and forth with those, but this revert patch should
have striped out and covered all the enforced cow bits anyways.

3d6559b609 UPSTREAM: mm/userfaultfd: selftests: fix memory corruption with thp enabled
In RHEL's gating selftests we've encountered memory corruption in the
uffd event test even with upstream kernel:

        # ./userfaultfd anon 128 4
        nr_pages: 32768, nr_pages_per_cpu: 32768
        bounces: 3, mode: rnd racing read, userfaults: 6240 missing (6240) 14729 wp (14729)
        bounces: 2, mode: racing read, userfaults: 1444 missing (1444) 28877 wp (28877)
        bounces: 1, mode: rnd read, userfaults: 6055 missing (6055) 14699 wp (14699)
        bounces: 0, mode: read, userfaults: 82 missing (82) 25196 wp (25196)
        testing uffd-wp with pagemap (pgsize=4096): done
        testing uffd-wp with pagemap (pgsize=2097152): done
        testing events (fork, remap, remove): ERROR: nr 32427 memory corruption 0 1 (errno=0, line=963)
        ERROR: faulting process failed (errno=0, line=1117)

It can be easily reproduced when global thp enabled, which is the
default for RHEL.

It's also known as a side effect of commit 0db282ba2c12 ("selftest: use
mmap instead of posix_memalign to allocate memory", 2021-07-23), which
is imho right itself on using mmap() to make sure the addresses will be
untagged even on arm.

The problem is, for each test we allocate buffers using two
allocate_area() calls.  We assumed these two buffers won't affect each
other, however they could, because mmap() could have found that the two
buffers are near each other and having the same VMA flags, so they got
merged into one VMA.

It won't be a big problem if thp is not enabled, but when thp is
agressively enabled it means when initializing the src buffer it could
accidentally setup part of the dest buffer too when there's a shared THP
that overlaps the two regions.  Then some of the dest buffer won't be
able to be trapped by userfaultfd missing mode, then it'll cause memory
corruption as described.

To fix it, do release_pages() after initializing the src buffer.

Since the previous two release_pages() calls are after
uffd_test_ctx_clear() which will unmap all the buffers anyway (which is
stronger than release pages; as unmap() also tear town pgtables), drop
them as they shouldn't really be anything useful.

We can mark the Fixes tag upon 0db282ba2c12 as it's reported to only
happen there, however the real "Fixes" IMHO should be 8ba6e8640844, as
before that commit we'll always do explicit release_pages() before
registration of uffd, and 8ba6e8640844 changed that logic by adding
extra unmap/map and we didn't release the pages at the right place.
Meanwhile I don't have a solid glue anyway on whether posix_memalign()
could always avoid triggering this bug, hence it's safer to attach this
fix to commit 8ba6e8640844.

7174d6f00c UPSTREAM: mm/shmem: use page_mapping() to detect page cache for uffd continue
mfill_atomic_install_pte() checks page->mapping to detect whether one page
is used in the page cache.  However as pointed out by Matthew, the page
can logically be a tail page rather than always the head in the case of
uffd minor mode with UFFDIO_CONTINUE.  It means we could wrongly install
one pte with shmem thp tail page assuming it's an anonymous page.

It's not that clear even for anonymous page, since normally anonymous
pages also have page->mapping being setup with the anon vma.  It's safe
here only because the only such caller to mfill_atomic_install_pte() is
always passing in a newly allocated page (mcopy_atomic_pte()), whose
page->mapping is not yet setup.  However that's not extremely obvious
either.

For either of above, use page_mapping() instead.

4a02a5091b UPSTREAM: mm/userfaultfd: fix memory corruption due to writeprotect
Userfaultfd self-test fails occasionally, indicating a memory corruption.

Analyzing this problem indicates that there is a real bug since mmap_lock
is only taken for read in mwriteprotect_range() and defers flushes, and
since there is insufficient consideration of concurrent deferred TLB
flushes in wp_page_copy().  Although the PTE is flushed from the TLBs in
wp_page_copy(), this flush takes place after the copy has already been
performed, and therefore changes of the page are possible between the time
of the copy and the time in which the PTE is flushed.

To make matters worse, memory-unprotection using userfaultfd also poses a
problem.  Although memory unprotection is logically a promotion of PTE
permissions, and therefore should not require a TLB flush, the current
userrfaultfd code might actually cause a demotion of the architectural PTE
permission: when userfaultfd_writeprotect() unprotects memory region, it
unintentionally *clears* the RW-bit if it was already set.  Note that this
unprotecting a PTE that is not write-protected is a valid use-case: the
userfaultfd monitor might ask to unprotect a region that holds both
write-protected and write-unprotected PTEs.

The scenario that happens in selftests/vm/userfaultfd is as follows:

cpu0				cpu1			cpu2
----				----			----
							[ Writable PTE
							  cached in TLB ]
userfaultfd_writeprotect()
[ write-*unprotect* ]
mwriteprotect_range()
mmap_read_lock()
change_protection()

change_protection_range()
...
change_pte_range()
[ *clear* “write”-bit ]
[ defer TLB flushes ]
				[ page-fault ]
				...
				wp_page_copy()
				 cow_user_page()
				  [ copy page ]
							[ write to old
							  page ]
				...
				 set_pte_at_notify()

A similar scenario can happen:

cpu0		cpu1		cpu2		cpu3
----		----		----		----
						[ Writable PTE
				  		  cached in TLB ]
userfaultfd_writeprotect()
[ write-protect ]
[ deferred TLB flush ]
		userfaultfd_writeprotect()
		[ write-unprotect ]
		[ deferred TLB flush]
				[ page-fault ]
				wp_page_copy()
				 cow_user_page()
				 [ copy page ]
				 ...		[ write to page ]
				set_pte_at_notify()

This race exists since commit 292924b26024 ("userfaultfd: wp: apply
_PAGE_UFFD_WP bit").  Yet, as Yu Zhao pointed, these races became apparent
since commit 09854ba94c6a ("mm: do_wp_page() simplification") which made
wp_page_copy() more likely to take place, specifically if page_count(page)
> 1.

To resolve the aforementioned races, check whether there are pending
flushes on uffd-write-protected VMAs, and if there are, perform a flush
before doing the COW.

Further optimizations will follow to avoid during uffd-write-unprotect
unnecassary PTE write-protection and TLB flushes.

b863f7b8bb UPSTREAM: mm: hugetlb: add missing cache flushing in hugetlb_unshare_all_pmds()
Missed calling flush_cache_range() before removing the sharing PMD
entrires, otherwise data consistence issue may be occurred on some
architectures whose caches are strict and require a virtual>physical
translation to exist for a virtual address.  Thus add it.

Now no architectures enabling PMD sharing will be affected, since they do
not have a VIVT cache.  That means this issue can not be happened in
practice so far.

f222b766fa BACKPORT: mm, mempolicy: fix up gup usage in lookup_node
ba841078cd05 ("mm/mempolicy: Allow lookup_node() to handle fatal signal")
has added a special casing for 0 return value because that was a possible
gup return value when interrupted by fatal signal.  This has been fixed by
ae46d2aa6a7f ("mm/gup: Let __get_user_pages_locked() return -EINTR for
fatal signal") in the mean time so ba841078cd05 can be reverted.

This patch however doesn't go all the way to revert it because the check
for 0 is wrong and confusing here.  Firstly it is inherently unsafe to
access the page when get_user_pages_locked returns 0 (aka no page
returned).

Fortunatelly this will not happen because get_user_pages_locked will not
return 0 when nr_pages > 0 unless FOLL_NOWAIT is specified which is not
the case here.  Document this potential error code in gup code while we
are at it.

1034902c6e UPSTREAM: mm/mempolicy: Allow lookup_node() to handle fatal signal
lookup_node() uses gup to pin the page and get node information.  It
checks against ret>=0 assuming the page will be filled in.  However it's
also possible that gup will return zero, for example, when the thread is
quickly killed with a fatal signal.  Teach lookup_node() to gracefully
return an error -EFAULT if it happens.

Meanwhile, initialize "page" to NULL to avoid potential risk of
exploiting the pointer.

a72e5a6a8f UPSTREAM: mm/gup: fix fixup_user_fault() on multiple retries
This part was overlooked when reworking the gup code on multiple
retries.

When we get the 2nd+ retry, we'll be with TRIED flag set.  Current code
will bail out on the 2nd retry because the !TRIED check will fail so the
retry logic will be skipped.  What's worse is that, it will also return
zero which errornously hints the caller that the page is faulted in
while it's not.

The !TRIED flag check seems to not be needed even before the mutliple
retries change because if we get a VM_FAULT_RETRY, it must be the 1st
retry, and we should not have TRIED set for that.

Fix it by removing the !TRIED check, at the meantime check against fatal
signals properly before the page fault so we can still properly respond
to the user killing the process during retries.

d67c1f7270 UPSTREAM: mm/userfaultfd: honor FAULT_FLAG_KILLABLE in fault path
Userfaultfd fault path was by default killable even if the caller does not
have FAULT_FLAG_KILLABLE.  That makes sense before in that when with gup
we don't have FAULT_FLAG_KILLABLE properly set before.  Now after previous
patch we've got FAULT_FLAG_KILLABLE applied even for gup code so it should
also make sense to let userfaultfd to honor the FAULT_FLAG_KILLABLE.

Because we're unconditionally setting FAULT_FLAG_KILLABLE in gup code
right now, this patch should have no functional change.  It also cleaned
the code a little bit by introducing some helpers.

0529ca25cc UPSTREAM: mm/gup: allow to react to fatal signals
The existing gup code does not react to the fatal signals in many code
paths.  For example, in one retry path of gup we're still using
down_read() rather than down_read_killable().  Also, when doing page
faults we don't pass in FAULT_FLAG_KILLABLE as well, which means that
within the faulting process we'll wait in non-killable way as well.  These
were spotted by Linus during the code review of some other patches.

Let's allow the gup code to react to fatal signals to improve the
responsiveness of threads when during gup and being killed.

bd68120399 UPSTREAM: mm/gup: allow VM_FAULT_RETRY for multiple times
This is the gup counterpart of the change that allows the VM_FAULT_RETRY
to happen for more than once.  One thing to mention is that we must check
the fatal signal here before retry because the GUP can be interrupted by
that, otherwise we can loop forever.

fc21d37d4f UPSTREAM: mm: allow VM_FAULT_RETRY for multiple times
The idea comes from a discussion between Linus and Andrea [1].

Before this patch we only allow a page fault to retry once.  We achieved
this by clearing the FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY flag when doing
handle_mm_fault() the second time.  This was majorly used to avoid
unexpected starvation of the system by looping over forever to handle the
page fault on a single page.  However that should hardly happen, and after
all for each code path to return a VM_FAULT_RETRY we'll first wait for a
condition (during which time we should possibly yield the cpu) to happen
before VM_FAULT_RETRY is really returned.

This patch removes the restriction by keeping the FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY
flag when we receive VM_FAULT_RETRY.  It means that the page fault handler
now can retry the page fault for multiple times if necessary without the
need to generate another page fault event.  Meanwhile we still keep the
FAULT_FLAG_TRIED flag so page fault handler can still identify whether a
page fault is the first attempt or not.

Then we'll have these combinations of fault flags (only considering
ALLOW_RETRY flag and TRIED flag):

  - ALLOW_RETRY and !TRIED:  this means the page fault allows to
                             retry, and this is the first try

  - ALLOW_RETRY and TRIED:   this means the page fault allows to
                             retry, and this is not the first try

  - !ALLOW_RETRY and !TRIED: this means the page fault does not allow
                             to retry at all

  - !ALLOW_RETRY and TRIED:  this is forbidden and should never be used

In existing code we have multiple places that has taken special care of
the first condition above by checking against (fault_flags &
FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY).  This patch introduces a simple helper to detect
the first retry of a page fault by checking against both (fault_flags &
FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY) and !(fault_flag & FAULT_FLAG_TRIED) because now
even the 2nd try will have the ALLOW_RETRY set, then use that helper in
all existing special paths.  One example is in __lock_page_or_retry(), now
we'll drop the mmap_sem only in the first attempt of page fault and we'll
keep it in follow up retries, so old locking behavior will be retained.

This will be a nice enhancement for current code [2] at the same time a
supporting material for the future userfaultfd-writeprotect work, since in
that work there will always be an explicit userfault writeprotect retry
for protected pages, and if that cannot resolve the page fault (e.g., when
userfaultfd-writeprotect is used in conjunction with swapped pages) then
we'll possibly need a 3rd retry of the page fault.  It might also benefit
other potential users who will have similar requirement like userfault
write-protection.

GUP code is not touched yet and will be covered in follow up patch.

dc8785e150 UPSTREAM: mm: introduce FAULT_FLAG_INTERRUPTIBLE
handle_userfaultfd() is currently the only one place in the kernel page
fault procedures that can respond to non-fatal userspace signals.  It was
trying to detect such an allowance by checking against USER & KILLABLE
flags, which was "un-official".

In this patch, we introduced a new flag (FAULT_FLAG_INTERRUPTIBLE) to show
that the fault handler allows the fault procedure to respond even to
non-fatal signals.  Meanwhile, add this new flag to the default fault
flags so that all the page fault handlers can benefit from the new flag.
With that, replacing the userfault check to this one.

Since the line is getting even longer, clean up the fault flags a bit too
to ease TTY users.

Although we've got a new flag and applied it, we shouldn't have any
functional change with this patch so far.

3e0bb70e9d UPSTREAM: mm: introduce FAULT_FLAG_DEFAULT
Although there're tons of arch-specific page fault handlers, most of them
are still sharing the same initial value of the page fault flags.  Say,
merely all of the page fault handlers would allow the fault to be retried,
and they also allow the fault to respond to SIGKILL.

Let's define a default value for the fault flags to replace those initial
page fault flags that were copied over.  With this, it'll be far easier to
introduce new fault flag that can be used by all the architectures instead
of touching all the archs.

This patch removes the risk path in handle_userfault() then we will be
sure that the callers of handle_mm_fault() will know that the VMAs might

as well since the core mm code now can handle the nonfatal userspace
signals even if we return VM_FAULT_RETRY.

dfe073b499 UPSTREAM: mm: return faster for non-fatal signals in user mode faults
The idea comes from the upstream discussion between Linus and Andrea:

  https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20171102193644.GB22686@redhat.com/

A summary to the issue: there was a special path in handle_userfault() in
the past that we'll return a VM_FAULT_NOPAGE when we detected non-fatal
signals when waiting for userfault handling.  We did that by reacquiring
the mmap_sem before returning.  However that brings a risk in that the
vmas might have changed when we retake the mmap_sem and even we could be
holding an invalid vma structure.

This patch is a preparation of removing that special path by allowing the
page fault to return even faster if we were interrupted by a non-fatal
signal during a user-mode page fault handling routine.

e26a7db9ab BACKPORT: mm: introduce fault_signal_pending()
For most architectures, we've got a quick path to detect fatal signal
after a handle_mm_fault().  Introduce a helper for that quick path.

It cleans the current codes a bit so we don't need to duplicate the same
check across archs.  More importantly, this will be an unified place that
we handle the signal immediately right after an interrupted page fault, so
it'll be much easier for us if we want to change the behavior of handling
signals later on for all the archs.

Note that currently only part of the archs are using this new helper,
because some archs have their own way to handle signals.  In the follow up
patches, we'll try to apply this helper to all the rest of archs.

Another note is that the "regs" parameter in the new helper is not used
yet.  It'll be used very soon.  Now we kept it in this patch only to avoid
touching all the archs again in the follow up patches.

635fb82d07 UPSTREAM: mm/gup: rename "nonblocking" to "locked" where proper
Patch series "mm: Page fault enhancements", v6.

This series contains cleanups and enhancements to current page fault
logic.  The whole idea comes from the discussion between Andrea and Linus
on the bug reported by syzbot here:

  https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/11/2/833

Basically it does two things:

  (a) Allows the page fault logic to be more interactive on not only
      SIGKILL, but also the rest of userspace signals, and,

  (b) Allows the page fault retry (VM_FAULT_RETRY) to happen for more
      than once.

For (a): with the changes we should be able to react faster when page
faults are working in parallel with userspace signals like SIGSTOP and
SIGCONT (and more), and with that we can remove the buggy part in
userfaultfd and benefit the whole page fault mechanism on faster signal
processing to reach the userspace.

For (b), we should be able to allow the page fault handler to loop for
even more than twice.  Some context: for now since we have
FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY we can allow to retry the page fault once with the
same interrupt context, however never more than twice.  This can be not
only a potential cleanup to remove this assumption since AFAIU the code
itself doesn't really have this twice-only limitation (though that should
be a protective approach in the past), at the same time it'll greatly
simplify future works like userfaultfd write-protect where it's possible
to retry for more than twice (please have a look at [1] below for a
possible user that might require the page fault to be handled for a third
time; if we can remove the retry limitation we can simply drop that patch
and those complexity).

This patch (of 16):

There's plenty of places around __get_user_pages() that has a parameter
"nonblocking" which does not really mean that "it won't block" (because it
can really block) but instead it shows whether the mmap_sem is released by
up_read() during the page fault handling mostly when VM_FAULT_RETRY is
returned.

We have the correct naming in e.g.  get_user_pages_locked() or
get_user_pages_remote() as "locked", however there're still many places
that are using the "nonblocking" as name.

Renaming the places to "locked" where proper to better suite the
functionality of the variable.  While at it, fixing up some of the
comments accordingly.

958319fefc BACKPORT: FROMGIT: userfaultfd/selftests: reinitialize test context in each test
Currently, the context (fds, mmap-ed areas, etc.) are global.  Each test
mutates this state in some way, in some cases really "clobbering it"
(e.g., the events test mremap-ing area_dst over the top of area_src, or
the minor faults tests overwriting the count_verify values in the test
areas).  We run the tests in a particular order, each test is careful to
make the right assumptions about its starting state, etc.

But, this is fragile.  It's better for a test's success or failure to not
depend on what some other prior test case did to the global state.

To that end, clear and reinitialize the test context at the start of each
test case, so whatever prior test cases did doesn't affect future tests.

This is particularly relevant to this series because the events test's
mremap of area_dst screws up assumptions the minor fault test was relying
on.  This wasn't a problem for hugetlb, as we don't mremap in that case.

area_*_alias and area_* (respectively) point to the same underlying

3aaf80e85f FROMGIT: userfaultfd/selftests: use memfd_create for shmem test type
This is a preparatory commit.  In the future, we want to be able to setup
alias mappings for area_src and area_dst in the shmem test, like we do in
the hugetlb_shared test.  With a VMA obtained via mmap(MAP_ANONYMOUS |
MAP_SHARED), it isn't clear how to do this.

So, mmap() with an fd, so we can create alias mappings.  Use memfd_create
instead of actually passing in a tmpfs path like hugetlb does, since it's
more convenient / simpler to run, and works just as well.

Future commits will:

1. Setup the alias mappings.
2. Extend our tests to actually take advantage of this, to test new
   userfaultfd behavior being introduced in this series.

Also, a small fix in the area we're changing: when the hugetlb setup fails
in main(), pass in the right argv[] so we actually print out the hugetlb
file path.

f98960cd4b BACKPORT: FROMGIT: userfaultfd/shmem: modify shmem_mfill_atomic_pte to use install_pte()
In a previous commit, we added the mfill_atomic_install_pte() helper.
This helper does the job of setting up PTEs for an existing page, to map
it into a given VMA.  It deals with both the anon and shmem cases, as well
as the shared and private cases.

In other words, shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() duplicates a case it already
handles.  So, expose it, and let shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() use it directly,
to reduce code duplication.

This requires that we refactor shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() a bit:

Instead of doing accounting (shmem_recalc_inode() et al) part-way through
the PTE setup, do it afterward.  This frees up mfill_atomic_install_pte()
from having to care about this accounting, and means we don't need to e.g.
shmem_uncharge() in the error path.

A side effect is this switches shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() to use
lru_cache_add_inactive_or_unevictable() instead of just lru_cache_add().
This wrapper does some extra accounting in an exceptional case, if
appropriate, so it's actually the more correct thing to use.

ef31d0b42c BACKPORT: FROMGIT: userfaultfd/shmem: support UFFDIO_CONTINUE for shmem
With this change, userspace can resolve a minor fault within a
shmem-backed area with a UFFDIO_CONTINUE ioctl.  The semantics for this
match those for hugetlbfs - we look up the existing page in the page
cache, and install a PTE for it.

This commit introduces a new helper: mfill_atomic_install_pte.

Why handle UFFDIO_CONTINUE for shmem in mm/userfaultfd.c, instead of in
shmem.c?  The existing userfault implementation only relies on shmem.c for
VM_SHARED VMAs.  However, minor fault handling / CONTINUE work just fine
for !VM_SHARED VMAs as well.  We'd prefer to handle CONTINUE for shmem in
one place, regardless of shared/private (to reduce code duplication).

Why add a new mfill_atomic_install_pte helper?  A problem we have with
continue is that shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() and mcopy_atomic_pte() are
*close* to what we want, but not exactly.  We do want to setup the PTEs in
a CONTINUE operation, but we don't want to e.g.  allocate a new page,
charge it (e.g.  to the shmem inode), manipulate various flags, etc.  Also
we have the problem stated above: shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() and
mcopy_atomic_pte() both handle one-half of the problem (shared / private)
continue cares about.  So, introduce mcontinue_atomic_pte(), to handle all
of the shmem continue cases.  Introduce the helper so it doesn't duplicate
code with mcopy_atomic_pte().

In a future commit, shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() will also be modified to use
this new helper.  However, since this is a bigger refactor, it seems most
clear to do it as a separate change.

ec166f77f9 BACKPORT: FROMGIT: userfaultfd/shmem: support minor fault registration for shmem
This patch allows shmem-backed VMAs to be registered for minor faults.
Minor faults are appropriately relayed to userspace in the fault path, for
VMAs with the relevant flag.

This commit doesn't hook up the UFFDIO_CONTINUE ioctl for shmem-backed
minor faults, though, so userspace doesn't yet have a way to resolve such
faults.

Because of this, we also don't yet advertise this as a supported feature.
That will be done in a separate commit when the feature is fully
implemented.

c374e699af BACKPORT: FROMGIT: userfaultfd/shmem: combine shmem_{mcopy_atomic,mfill_zeropage}_pte
Patch series "userfaultfd: add minor fault handling for shmem", v6.

Overview
========

See the series which added minor faults for hugetlbfs [3] for a detailed
overview of minor fault handling in general.  This series adds the same
support for shmem-backed areas.

This series is structured as follows:

- Commits 1 and 2 are cleanups.
- Commits 3 and 4 implement the new feature (minor fault handling for shmem).
- Commit 5 advertises that the feature is now available since at this point it's
  fully implemented.
- Commit 6 is a final cleanup, modifying an existing code path to re-use a new
  helper we've introduced.
- Commits 7, 8, 9, 10 update the userfaultfd selftest to exercise the feature.

Use Case
========

In some cases it is useful to have VM memory backed by tmpfs instead of
hugetlbfs.  So, this feature will be used to support the same VM live
migration use case described in my original series.

Additionally, Android folks (Lokesh Gidra <lokeshgidra@google.com>) hope
to optimize the Android Runtime garbage collector using this feature:

"The plan is to use userfaultfd for concurrently compacting the heap.
With this feature, the heap can be shared-mapped at another location where
the GC-thread(s) could continue the compaction operation without the need
to invoke userfault ioctl(UFFDIO_COPY) each time.  OTOH, if and when Java
threads get faults on the heap, UFFDIO_CONTINUE can be used to resume
execution.  Furthermore, this feature enables updating references in the
'non-moving' portion of the heap efficiently.  Without this feature,
uneccessary page copying (ioctl(UFFDIO_COPY)) would be required."

[3] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-fsdevel/20210301222728.176417-1-axelrasmussen@google.com/T/#t

This patch (of 9):

Previously, we did a dance where we had one calling path in userfaultfd.c
(mfill_atomic_pte), but then we split it into two in shmem_fs.h
(shmem_{mcopy_atomic,mfill_zeropage}_pte), and then rejoined into a single
shared function in shmem.c (shmem_mfill_atomic_pte).

This is all a bit overly complex.  Just call the single combined shmem
function directly, allowing us to clean up various branches, boilerplate,
etc.

While we're touching this function, two other small cleanup changes:
- offset is equivalent to pgoff, so we can get rid of offset entirely.
- Split two VM_BUG_ON cases into two statements. This means the line
  number reported when the BUG is hit specifies exactly which condition
  was true.

ce0a7ce64d BACKPORT: userfaultfd/selftests: add test exercising minor fault handling
Fix a dormant bug in userfaultfd_events_test(), where we did `return
faulting_process(0)` instead of `exit(faulting_process(0))`.  This
caused the forked process to keep running, trying to execute any further
test cases after the events test in parallel with the "real" process.

Add a simple test case which exercises minor faults.  In short, it does
the following:

1. "Sets up" an area (area_dst) and a second shared mapping to the same
   underlying pages (area_dst_alias).

2. Register one of these areas with userfaultfd, in minor fault mode.

3. Start a second thread to handle any minor faults.

4. Populate the underlying pages with the non-UFFD-registered side of
   the mapping. Basically, memset() each page with some arbitrary
   contents.

5. Then, using the UFFD-registered mapping, read all of the page
   contents, asserting that the contents match expectations (we expect
   the minor fault handling thread can modify the page contents before
   resolving the fault).

The minor fault handling thread, upon receiving an event, flips all the
bits (~) in that page, just to prove that it can modify it in some
arbitrary way.  Then it issues a UFFDIO_CONTINUE ioctl, to setup the
mapping and resolve the fault.  The reading thread should wake up and
see this modification.

Currently the minor fault test is only enabled in hugetlb_shared mode,
as this is the only configuration the kernel feature supports.

238aff8de5 BACKPORT: userfaultfd: selftests: add write-protect test
Add uffd tests for write protection.

Instead of introducing new tests for it, let's simply squashing uffd-wp
tests into existing uffd-missing test cases.  Changes are:

(1) Bouncing tests

  We do the write-protection in two ways during the bouncing test:

  - By using UFFDIO_COPY_MODE_WP when resolving MISSING pages: then
    we'll make sure for each bounce process every single page will be
    at least fault twice: once for MISSING, once for WP.

  - By direct call UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT on existing faulted memories:
    To further torture the explicit page protection procedures of
    uffd-wp, we split each bounce procedure into two halves (in the
    background thread): the first half will be MISSING+WP for each
    page as explained above.  After the first half, we write protect
    the faulted region in the background thread to make sure at least
    half of the pages will be write protected again which is the first
    half to test the new UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT call.  Then we continue
    with the 2nd half, which will contain both MISSING and WP faulting
    tests for the 2nd half and WP-only faults from the 1st half.

(2) Event/Signal test

  Mostly previous tests but will do MISSING+WP for each page.  For
  sigbus-mode test we'll need to provide standalone path to handle the
  write protection faults.

For all tests, do statistics as well for uffd-wp pages.

(Removed write-protect test related changes)

Note: This patch introduces a write-protect test. In addition it also
introduces uffd_stats_report(), which prints the stats in uniform a
manner. We only require uffd_stats_report() as subsequent patches depend
on it. Write-protect test is omitted as this kernel doesn't have
userfaultfd's write-protect feature.

b148186e40 BACKPORT: userfaultfd: selftests: refactor statistics
Introduce uffd_stats structure for statistics of the self test, at the
same time refactor the code to always pass in the uffd_stats for either
read() or poll() typed fault handling threads instead of using two
different ways to return the statistic results.  No functional change.

With the new structure, it's very easy to introduce new statistics.

d28487ec26 BACKPORT: userfaultfd: wp: add helper for writeprotect check
Patch series "userfaultfd: write protection support", v6.

Overview
========

The uffd-wp work was initialized by Shaohua Li [1], and later continued by
Andrea [2].  This series is based upon Andrea's latest userfaultfd tree,
and it is a continuous works from both Shaohua and Andrea.  Many of the
follow up ideas come from Andrea too.

Besides the old MISSING register mode of userfaultfd, the new uffd-wp
support provides another alternative register mode called
UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_WP that can be used to listen to not only missing
page faults but also write protection page faults, or even they can be
registered together.  At the same time, the new feature also provides a
new userfaultfd ioctl called UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT which allows the
userspace to write protect a range or memory or fixup write permission of
faulted pages.

Please refer to the document patch "userfaultfd: wp:
UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_WP documentation update" for more information on the
new interface and what it can do.

The major workflow of an uffd-wp program should be:

  1. Register a memory region with WP mode using UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_WP

  2. Write protect part of the whole registered region using
     UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT, passing in UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT_MODE_WP to
     show that we want to write protect the range.

  3. Start a working thread that modifies the protected pages,
     meanwhile listening to UFFD messages.

  4. When a write is detected upon the protected range, page fault
     happens, a UFFD message will be generated and reported to the
     page fault handling thread

  5. The page fault handler thread resolves the page fault using the
     new UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT ioctl, but this time passing in
     !UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT_MODE_WP instead showing that we want to
     recover the write permission.  Before this operation, the fault
     handler thread can do anything it wants, e.g., dumps the page to
     a persistent storage.

  6. The worker thread will continue running with the correctly
     applied write permission from step 5.

Currently there are already two projects that are based on this new
userfaultfd feature.

QEMU Live Snapshot: The project provides a way to allow the QEMU
                    hypervisor to take snapshot of VMs without
                    stopping the VM [3].

LLNL umap library:  The project provides a mmap-like interface and
                    "allow to have an application specific buffer of
                    pages cached from a large file, i.e. out-of-core
                    execution using memory map" [4][5].

Before posting the patchset, this series was smoke tested against QEMU
live snapshot and the LLNL umap library (by doing parallel quicksort using
128 sorting threads + 80 uffd servicing threads).  My sincere thanks to
Marty Mcfadden and Denis Plotnikov for the help along the way.

TODO
====

- hugetlbfs/shmem support
- performance
- more architectures
- cooperate with mprotect()-allowed processes (???)
- ...
