Introduce pin_user_pages*() variations of get_user_pages*() calls, and also pin_longterm_pages*() variations.
These variants all set FOLL_PIN, which is also introduced, and thoroughly documented.
The pin_longterm*() variants also set FOLL_LONGTERM, in addition to FOLL_PIN:
pin_user_pages() pin_user_pages_remote() pin_user_pages_fast()
pin_longterm_pages() pin_longterm_pages_remote() pin_longterm_pages_fast()
All pages that are pinned via the above calls, must be unpinned via put_user_page().
The underlying rules are:
* These are gup-internal flags, so the call sites should not directly set FOLL_PIN nor FOLL_LONGTERM. That behavior is enforced with assertions, for the new FOLL_PIN flag. However, for the pre-existing FOLL_LONGTERM flag, which has some call sites that still directly set FOLL_LONGTERM, there is no assertion yet.
* Call sites that want to indicate that they are going to do DirectIO ("DIO") or something with similar characteristics, should call a get_user_pages()-like wrapper call that sets FOLL_PIN. These wrappers will: * Start with "pin_user_pages" instead of "get_user_pages". That makes it easy to find and audit the call sites. * Set FOLL_PIN
* For pages that are received via FOLL_PIN, those pages must be returned via put_user_page().
Thanks to Jan Kara and Vlastimil Babka for explaining the 4 cases in this documentation. (I've reworded it and expanded on it slightly.)

FOLL_PIN has +significant interactions and interdependencies with FOLL_LONGTERM, so both are +covered here. + +Both FOLL_PIN and FOLL_LONGTERM are "internal" to gup, meaning that neither +FOLL_PIN nor FOLL_LONGTERM should not appear at the gup call sites. This allows +the associated wrapper functions (pin_user_pages and others) to set the correct +combination of these flags, and to check for problems as well. + +FOLL_PIN and FOLL_GET are mutually exclusive for a given gup call. However, +multiple threads and call sites are free to pin the same struct pages, via both +FOLL_PIN and FOLL_GET. It's just the call site that needs to choose one or the +other, not the struct page(s). + +The FOLL_PIN implementation is nearly the same as FOLL_GET, except that FOLL_PIN +uses a different reference counting technique. + +FOLL_PIN is a prerequisite to FOLL_LONGTGERM. Another way of saying that is, +FOLL_LONGTERM is a specific case, more restrictive case of FOLL_PIN. + +Which flags are set by each wrapper +=================================== + +Only FOLL_PIN and FOLL_LONGTERM are covered here. These flags are added to +whatever flags the caller provides:: + + Function gup flags (FOLL_PIN or FOLL_LONGTERM only) + -------- ------------------------------------------ + pin_user_pages FOLL_PIN + pin_user_pages_fast FOLL_PIN + pin_user_pages_remote FOLL_PIN + + pin_longterm_pages FOLL_PIN | FOLL_LONGTERM + pin_longterm_pages_fast FOLL_PIN | FOLL_LONGTERM + pin_longterm_pages_remote FOLL_PIN | FOLL_LONGTERM + +Tracking dma-pinned pages +========================= + +Some of the key design constraints, and solutions, for tracking dma-pinned +pages: + +* An actual reference count, per struct page, is required. This is because + multiple processes may pin and unpin a page. + +* False positives (reporting that a page is dma-pinned, when in fact it is not) + are acceptable, but false negatives are not. + +* struct page may not be increased in size for this, and all fields are already + used. + +* Given the above, we can overload the page->_refcount field by using, sort of, + the upper bits in that field for a dma-pinned count. "Sort of", means that, + rather than dividing page->_refcount into bit fields, we simple add a medium- + large value (GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS, initially chosen to be 1024: 10 bits) to + page->_refcount. This provides fuzzy behavior: if a page has get_page() called + on it 1024 times, then it will appear to have a single dma-pinned count. + And again, that's acceptable. + +This also leads to limitations: there are only 31-10==21 bits available for a +counter that increments 10 bits at a time. + +TODO: for 1GB and larger huge pages, this is cutting it close. That's because +when pin_user_pages() follows such pages, it increments the head page by "1" +(where "1" used to mean "+1" for get_user_pages(), but now means "+1024" for +pin_user_pages()) for each tail page. So if you have a 1GB huge page: + +* There are 256K (18 bits) worth of 4 KB tail pages. +* There are 21 bits available to count up via GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS (that is, + 10 bits at a time) +* There are 21 - 18 == 3 bits available to count. Except that there aren't, + because you need to allow for a few normal get_page() calls on the head page, + as well. Fortunately, the approach of using addition, rather than "hard" + bitfields, within page->_refcount, allows for sharing these bits gracefully. + But we're still looking at about 8 references. + +This, however, is a missing feature more than anything else, because it's easily +solved by addressing an obvious inefficiency in the original get_user_pages() +approach of retrieving pages: stop treating all the pages as if they were +PAGE_SIZE. Retrieve huge pages as huge pages. The callers need to be aware of +this, so some work is required. Once that's in place, this limitation mostly +disappears from view, because there will be ample refcounting range available. + +* Callers must specifically request "dma-pinned tracking of pages". In other + words, just calling get_user_pages() will not suffice; a new set of functions, + pin_user_page() and related, must be used. + +FOLL_PIN, FOLL_GET, FOLL_LONGTERM: when to use which flags +========================================================== + +Thanks to Jan Kara, Vlastimil Babka and several other -mm people, for describing +these categories: + +CASE 1: Direct IO (DIO) +----------------------- +There are GUP references to pages that are serving +as DIO buffers. These buffers are needed for a relatively short time (so they +are not "long term"). No special synchronization with page_mkclean() or +munmap() is provided. Therefore, flags to set at the call site are: :: + + FOLL_PIN + +...but rather than setting FOLL_PIN directly, call sites should use one of +the pin_user_pages*() routines that set FOLL_PIN. + +CASE 2: RDMA +------------ +There are GUP references to pages that are serving as DMA +buffers. These buffers are needed for a long time ("long term"). No special +synchronization with page_mkclean() or munmap() is provided. Therefore, flags +to set at the call site are: :: + + FOLL_PIN | FOLL_LONGTERM + +NOTE: Some pages, such as DAX pages, cannot be pinned with longterm pins. That's +because DAX pages do not have a separate page cache, and so "pinning" implies +locking down file system blocks, which is not (yet) supported in that way. + +CASE 3: ODP +----------- +(Mellanox/Infiniband On Demand Paging: the hardware supports +replayable page faulting). There are GUP references to pages serving as DMA +buffers. For ODP, MMU notifiers are used to synchronize with page_mkclean() +and munmap(). Therefore, normal GUP calls are sufficient, so neither flag +needs to be set. + +CASE 4: Pinning for struct page manipulation only +------------------------------------------------- +Here, normal GUP calls are sufficient, so neither flag needs to be set. + +page_dma_pinned(): the whole point of pinning +============================================= + +The whole point of marking pages as "DMA-pinned" or "gup-pinned" is to be able +to query, "is this page DMA-pinned?" That allows code such as page_mkclean() +(and file system writeback code in general) to make informed decisions about +what to do when a page cannot be unmapped due to such pins. + +What to do in those cases is the subject of a years-long series of discussions +and debates (see the References at the end of this document). It's a TODO item +here: fill in the details once that's worked out. Meanwhile, it's safe to say +that having this available: :: + + static inline bool page_dma_pinned(struct page *page) + +...is a prerequisite to solving the long-running gup+DMA problem. + +Another way of thinking about FOLL_GET, FOLL_PIN, and FOLL_LONGTERM +=================================================================== + +Another way of thinking about these flags is as a progression of restrictions: +FOLL_GET is for struct page manipulation, without affecting the data that the +struct page refers to. FOLL_PIN is a *replacement* for FOLL_GET, and is for +short term pins on pages whose data *will* get accessed. As such, FOLL_PIN is +a "more severe" form of pinning. And finally, FOLL_LONGTERM is an even more +restrictive case that has FOLL_PIN as a prerequisite: this is for pages that +will be pinned longterm, and whose data will be accessed. + +Unit testing +============ +This file:: + + tools/testing/selftests/vm/gup_benchmark.c + +has the following new calls to exercise the new pin*() wrapper functions: + +* PIN_FAST_BENCHMARK (./gup_benchmark -a) +* PIN_LONGTERM_BENCHMARK (./gup_benchmark -a) +* PIN_BENCHMARK (./gup_benchmark -a) + +You can monitor how many total dma-pinned pages have been acquired and released +since the system was booted, via two new /proc/vmstat entries: :: + + /proc/vmstat/nr_foll_pin_requested + /proc/vmstat/nr_foll_pin_requested + +Those are both going to show zero, unless CONFIG_DEBUG_VM is set.
