mm: use kmap_local_page in memzero_page

2021-07-24T00:43:28+00:00

The commit message introducing the global memzero_page explicitly mentions switching to kmap_local_page in the commit log but doesn't actually do that.

mm: call flush_dcache_page() in memcpy_to_page() and memzero_page()

2021-07-24T00:43:28+00:00

memcpy_to_page and memzero_page can write to arbitrary pages, which could be in the page cache or in high memory, so call flush_kernel_dcache_pages to flush the dcache. This is a problem when using these helpers on dcache challeneged architectures. Right now there are just a few users, chances are no one used the PC floppy driver, the aha1542 driver for an ISA SCSI HBA, and a few advanced and optional btrfs and ext4 features on those platforms yet since the conversion.

arm64: mte: handle tags zeroing at page allocation time

2021-06-04T18:32:21+00:00

Currently, on an anonymous page fault, the kernel allocates a zeroed page and maps it in user space. If the mapping is tagged (PROT_MTE), set_pte_at() additionally clears the tags. It is, however, more efficient to clear the tags at the same time as zeroing the data on allocation. To avoid clearing the tags on any page (which may not be mapped as tagged), only do this if the vma flags contain VM_MTE. This requires introducing a new GFP flag that is used to determine whether to clear the tags. The DC GZVA instruction with a 0 top byte (and 0 tag) requires top-byte-ignore. Set the TCR_EL1.{TBI1,TBID1} bits irrespective of whether KASAN_HW is enabled.

mm: arch: remove indirection level in alloc_zeroed_user_highpage_movable()

2021-06-04T18:32:21+00:00

In an upcoming change we would like to add a flag to GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE so that it would no longer be an OR of GFP_HIGHUSER and __GFP_MOVABLE. This poses a problem for alloc_zeroed_user_highpage_movable() which passes __GFP_MOVABLE into an arch-specific __alloc_zeroed_user_highpage() hook which ORs in GFP_HIGHUSER. Since __alloc_zeroed_user_highpage() is only ever called from alloc_zeroed_user_highpage_movable(), we can remove one level of indirection here. Remove __alloc_zeroed_user_highpage(), make alloc_zeroed_user_highpage_movable() the hook, and use GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE in the hook implementations so that they will pick up the new flag that we are going to add.

iov_iter: lift memzero_page() to highmem.h

2021-05-05T18:27:27+00:00

Patch series "btrfs: Convert kmap/memset/kunmap to memzero_user()". Lifting memzero_user(), convert it to kmap_local_page() and then use it in btrfs. This patch (of 3): memzero_page() can replace the kmap/memset/kunmap pattern in other places in the code. While zero_user() has the same interface it is not the same call and its use should be limited and some of those calls may be better converted from zero_user() to memzero_page().[1] But that is not addressed in this series. Lift memzero_page() to highmem.

mm/highmem: Lift memcpy_[to|from]_page to core

2021-02-11T18:54:43+00:00

Working through a conversion to a call kmap_local_page() instead of kmap() revealed many places where the pattern kmap/memcpy/kunmap occurred. Eric Biggers, Matthew Wilcox, Christoph Hellwig, Dan Williams, and Al Viro all suggested putting this code into helper functions. Al Viro further pointed out that these functions already existed in the iov_iter code.[1] Various locations for the lifted functions were considered. Headers like mm.h or string.h seem ok but don't really portray the functionality well. pagemap.h made some sense but is for page cache functionality.[2] Another alternative would be to create a new header for the promoted memcpy functions, but it masks the fact that these are designed to copy to/from pages using the kernel direct mappings and complicates matters with a new header. Placing these functions in 'highmem.h' is suboptimal especially with the changes being proposed in the functionality of kmap. From a caller perspective including/using 'highmem.h' implies that the functions defined in that header are only required when highmem is in use which is increasingly not the case with modern processors. However, highmem.h is where all the current functions like this reside (zero_user(), clear_highpage(), clear_user_highpage(), copy_user_highpage(), and copy_highpage()). So it makes the most sense even though it is distasteful for some.[3] Lift memcpy_to_page() and memcpy_from_page() to pagemap.h.
