Subject: mm/mremap: correctly handle partial mremap() of VMA starting at 0
Date: Mon, 3 Mar 2025 11:08:31 +0000
Patch series "refactor mremap and fix bug".
The existing mremap() logic has grown organically over a very long period
of time, resulting in code that is in many parts, very difficult to follow
and full of subtleties and sources of confusion.
In addition, it is difficult to thread state through the operation
correctly, as function arguments have expanded, some parameters are
expected to be temporarily altered during the operation, others are
intended to remain static and some can be overridden.
This series completely refactors the mremap implementation, sensibly
separating functions, adding comments to explain the more subtle aspects
of the implementation and making use of small structs to thread state
through everything.
The reason for doing so is to lay the groundwork for planned future
changes to the mremap logic, changes which require the ability to easily
pass around state.
Additionally, it would be unhelpful to add yet more logic to code that is
already difficult to follow without first refactoring it like this.
The first patch in this series additionally fixes a bug when a VMA with
start address zero is partially remapped.
This patch (of 7):
Consider the case of a partial mremap() (that results in a VMA split) of
an accountable VMA (i.e. which has the VM_ACCOUNT flag set) whose start
address is zero, with the MREMAP_MAYMOVE flag specified and a scenario
where a move does in fact occur:
addr end
| |
v v
|-------------|
| vma |
|-------------|
0
This move is affected by unmapping the range [addr, end). In order to
prevent an incorrect decrement of accounted memory which has already been
determined, the mremap() code in move_vma() clears VM_ACCOUNT from the VMA
prior to doing so, before reestablishing it in each of the VMAs
post-split:
addr end
| |
v v
|---| |---|
| A | | B |
|---| |---|
Commit 6b73cff239e5 ("mm: change munmap splitting order and move_vma()")
changed this logic such as to determine whether there is a need to do so
by establishing account_start and account_end and, in the instance where
such an operation is required, assigning them to vma->vm_start and
vma->vm_end.
Later the code checks if the operation is required for 'A' referenced
above thusly:
if (account_start) {
...
}
However, if the VMA described above has vma->vm_start == 0, which is now
assigned to account_start, this branch will not be executed.
As a result, the VMA 'A' above will remain stripped of its VM_ACCOUNT
flag, incorrectly.
The fix is to simply convert these variables to booleans and set them as
required.

Subject: sparc/mm: avoid calling arch_enter/leave_lazy_mmu() in set_ptes
Date: Mon, 3 Mar 2025 14:15:38 +0000
With commit 1a10a44dfc1d ("sparc64: implement the new page table range
API") set_ptes was added to the sparc architecture. The implementation
included calling arch_enter/leave_lazy_mmu() calls.
The patch removes the usage of arch_enter/leave_lazy_mmu() since this
implies nesting of lazy mmu regions which is not supported. Without this
fix, lazy mmu mode is effectively disabled because we exit the mode after
the first set_ptes:
remap_pte_range()
-> arch_enter_lazy_mmu()
-> set_ptes()
-> arch_enter_lazy_mmu()
-> arch_leave_lazy_mmu()
-> arch_leave_lazy_mmu()
Powerpc suffered the same problem and fixed it in a corresponding way with
commit 47b8def9358c ("powerpc/mm: Avoid calling
arch_enter/leave_lazy_mmu() in set_ptes").

Subject: sparc/mm: disable preemption in lazy mmu mode
Date: Mon, 3 Mar 2025 14:15:37 +0000
Since commit 38e0edb15bd0 ("mm/apply_to_range: call pte function with lazy
updates") it's been possible for arch_[enter|leave]_lazy_mmu_mode() to be
called without holding a page table lock (for the kernel mappings case),
and therefore it is possible that preemption may occur while in the lazy
mmu mode. The Sparc lazy mmu implementation is not robust to preemption
since it stores the lazy mode state in a per-cpu structure and does not
attempt to manage that state on task switch.
Powerpc had the same issue and fixed it by explicitly disabling preemption
in arch_enter_lazy_mmu_mode() and re-enabling in
arch_leave_lazy_mmu_mode(). See commit b9ef323ea168 ("powerpc/64s:
Disable preemption in hash lazy mmu mode").
Given Sparc's lazy mmu mode is based on powerpc's, let's fix it in the
same way here.

Subject: mm: fix lazy mmu docs and usage
Date: Mon, 3 Mar 2025 14:15:35 +0000
Patch series "Fix lazy mmu mode", v2.
I'm planning to implement lazy mmu mode for arm64 to optimize vmalloc. As
part of that, I will extend lazy mmu mode to cover kernel mappings in
vmalloc table walkers. While lazy mmu mode is already used for kernel
mappings in a few places, this will extend it's use significantly.
Having reviewed the existing lazy mmu implementations in powerpc, sparc
and x86, it looks like there are a bunch of bugs, some of which may be
more likely to trigger once I extend the use of lazy mmu. So this series
attempts to clarify the requirements and fix all the bugs in advance of
that series. See patch #1 commit log for all the details.
This patch (of 5):
The docs, implementations and use of arch_[enter|leave]_lazy_mmu_mode() is
a bit of a mess (to put it politely). There are a number of issues
related to nesting of lazy mmu regions and confusion over whether the
task, when in a lazy mmu region, is preemptible or not. Fix all the
issues relating to the core-mm. Follow up commits will fix the
arch-specific implementations. 3 arches implement lazy mmu; powerpc,
sparc and x86.
When arch_[enter|leave]_lazy_mmu_mode() was first introduced by commit
6606c3e0da53 ("[PATCH] paravirt: lazy mmu mode hooks.patch"), it was
expected that lazy mmu regions would never nest and that the appropriate
page table lock(s) would be held while in the region, thus ensuring the
region is non-preemptible. Additionally lazy mmu regions were only used
during manipulation of user mappings.
Commit 38e0edb15bd0 ("mm/apply_to_range: call pte function with lazy
updates") started invoking the lazy mmu mode in apply_to_pte_range(),
which is used for both user and kernel mappings. For kernel mappings the
region is no longer protected by any lock so there is no longer any
guarantee about non-preemptibility. Additionally, for RT configs, the
holding the PTL only implies no CPU migration, it doesn't prevent
preemption.
Commit bcc6cc832573 ("mm: add default definition of set_ptes()") added
arch_[enter|leave]_lazy_mmu_mode() to the default implementation of
set_ptes(), used by x86. So after this commit, lazy mmu regions can be
nested. Additionally commit 1a10a44dfc1d ("sparc64: implement the new
page table range API") and commit 9fee28baa601 ("powerpc: implement the
new page table range API") did the same for the sparc and powerpc
set_ptes() overrides.
powerpc couldn't deal with preemption so avoids it in commit b9ef323ea168
("powerpc/64s: Disable preemption in hash lazy mmu mode"), which
explicitly disables preemption for the whole region in its implementation.
x86 can support preemption (or at least it could until it tried to add
support nesting; more on this below). Sparc looks to be totally broken in
the face of preemption, as far as I can tell.
powerpc can't deal with nesting, so avoids it in commit 47b8def9358c
("powerpc/mm: Avoid calling arch_enter/leave_lazy_mmu() in set_ptes"),
which removes the lazy mmu calls from its implementation of set_ptes().
x86 attempted to support nesting in commit 49147beb0ccb ("x86/xen: allow
nesting of same lazy mode") but as far as I can tell, this breaks its
support for preemption.
In short, it's all a mess; the semantics for
arch_[enter|leave]_lazy_mmu_mode() are not clearly defined and as a result
the implementations all have different expectations, sticking plasters and
bugs.
arm64 is aiming to start using these hooks, so let's clean everything up
before adding an arm64 implementation. Update the documentation to state
that lazy mmu regions can never be nested, must not be called in interrupt
context and preemption may or may not be enabled for the duration of the
region. And fix the generic implementation of set_ptes() to avoid
nesting.
arch-specific fixes to conform to the new spec will proceed this one.
These issues were spotted by code review and I have no evidence of issues
being reported in the wild.

This also eliminates the following warnings from the kernel log:
dwhdmi-rockchip ff940000.hdmi: supply avdd-0v9 not found, using dummy regulator
dwhdmi-rockchip ff940000.hdmi: supply avdd-1v8 not found, using dummy regulator
There are no functional changes to the way board works with these additions,
because the "vcc1v8_dvp" and "vcca_0v9" regulators are always enabled, [1][2]
but these additions improve the accuracy of hardware description.
These changes apply to the both supported hardware revisions of the Pine64
RockPro64, i.e. to the production-run revisions 2.0 and 2.1. [1][2]

Add missing "vpcie0v9-supply" and "vpcie1v8-supply" properties to the "pcie0"
node in the Pine64 RockPro64 board dtsi file. This eliminates the following
warnings from the kernel log:
rockchip-pcie f8000000.pcie: supply vpcie1v8 not found, using dummy regulator
rockchip-pcie f8000000.pcie: supply vpcie0v9 not found, using dummy regulator
These additions improve the accuracy of hardware description of the RockPro64
and, in theory, they should result in no functional changes to the way board
works after the changes, because the "vcca_0v9" and "vcca_1v8" regulators are
always enabled. [1][2] However, extended reliability testing, performed by
Chris, [3] has proven that the age-old issues with some PCI Express cards,
when used with a Pine64 RockPro64, are also resolved.
Those issues were already mentioned in the commit 43853e843aa6 (arm64: dts:
rockchip: Remove unsupported node from the Pinebook Pro dts, 2024-04-01),
together with a brief description of the out-of-tree enumeration delay patch
that reportedly resolves those issues. In a nutshell, booting a RockPro64
with some PCI Express cards attached to it caused a kernel oops. [4]
Symptomatically enough, to the commit author's best knowledge, only the Pine64
RockPro64, out of all RK3399-based boards and devices supported upstream, has
been reported to suffer from those PCI Express issues, and only the RockPro64
had some of the PCI Express supplies missing in its DT. Thus, perhaps some
weird timing issues exist that caused the "vcca_1v8" always-on regulator,
which is part of the RK808 PMIC, to actually not be enabled before the PCI
Express is initialized and enumerated on the RockPro64, causing oopses with
some PCIe cards, and the aforementioned enumeration delay patch [4] probably
acted as just a workaround for the underlying timing issue.
Admittedly, the Pine64 RockPro64 is a bit specific board by having a standard
PCI Express slot, allowing use of various standard cards, but pretty much
standard PCI Express cards have been attached to other RK3399 boards as well,
and the commit author is unaware ot such issues reported for them.
It's quite hard to be sure that the PCI Express issues are fully resolved by
these additions to the DT, without some really extensive and time-consuming
testing. However, these additions to the DT can result in good things and
improvements anyway, making them perfectly safe from the standpoint of being
unable to do any harm or cause some unforeseen regressions.
Shuffle and reorder the "vpcie*-supply" properties a bit, so they're sorted
alphanumerically, which is a bit more logical and more useful than having
these properties listed in their strict alphabetical order.
These changes apply to the both supported hardware revisions of the Pine64
RockPro64, i.e. to the production-run revisions 2.0 and 2.1. [1][2]
