arm64: mm: Fix VM_BUG_ON(mm != &init_mm) for trans_pgd

2021-11-16T10:12:57+00:00

trans_pgd_create_copy() can hit "VM_BUG_ON(mm != &init_mm)" in the function pmd_populate_kernel(). This is the combined consequence of commit 5de59884ac0e ("arm64: trans_pgd: pass NULL instead of init_mm to *_populate functions"), which replaced &init_mm with NULL and commit 59511cfd08f3 ("arm64: mm: use XN table mapping attributes for user/kernel mappings"), which introduced the VM_BUG_ON. Since the former sounds reasonable, it is better to work on the later. From the perspective of trans_pgd, two groups of functions are considered in the later one: pmd_populate_kernel() mm == NULL should be fixed, else it hits VM_BUG_ON() p?d_populate() mm == NULL means PXN, that is OK, since trans_pgd only copies a linear map, no execution will happen on the map. So it is good enough to just relax VM_BUG_ON() to disregard mm == NULL Fixes: 59511cfd08f3 ("arm64: mm: use XN table mapping attributes for user/kernel mappings") Signed-off-by: Pingfan Liu Cc: # 5.13.x Cc: Ard Biesheuvel Cc: James Morse Cc: Matthias Brugger Reviewed-by: Catalin Marinas Reviewed-by: Pasha Tatashin Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20211112052214.9086-1-kernelfans@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Will Deacon

mm/thp: define default pmd_pgtable()

2021-07-01T18:06:03+00:00

Currently most platforms define pmd_pgtable() as pmd_page() duplicating the same code all over. Instead just define a default value i.e pmd_page() for pmd_pgtable() and let platforms override when required via . All the existing platform that override pmd_pgtable() have been moved into their respective header in order to precede before the new generic definition. This makes it much cleaner with reduced code.

arm64: mm: use XN table mapping attributes for user/kernel mappings

2021-03-19T18:50:46+00:00

As the kernel and user space page tables are strictly mutually exclusive when it comes to executable permissions, we can set the UXN table attribute on all table entries that are created while creating kernel mappings in the swapper page tables, and the PXN table attribute on all table entries that are created while creating user space mappings in user space page tables. While at it, get rid of a redundant comment.

arm64: mm: add missing P4D definitions and use them consistently

2021-03-19T18:47:15+00:00

Even though level 0, 1 and 2 descriptors share the same attribute encodings, let's be a bit more consistent about using the right one at the right level. So add new macros for level 0/P4D definitions, and clean up some inconsistencies involving these macros.

asm-generic: pgalloc: provide generic pmd_alloc_one() and pmd_free_one()

2020-08-07T18:33:26+00:00

For most architectures that support >2 levels of page tables, pmd_alloc_one() is a wrapper for __get_free_pages(), sometimes with __GFP_ZERO and sometimes followed by memset(0) instead. More elaborate versions on arm64 and x86 account memory for the user page tables and call to pgtable_pmd_page_ctor() as the part of PMD page initialization. Move the arm64 version to include/asm-generic/pgalloc.h and use the generic version on several architectures. The pgtable_pmd_page_ctor() is a NOP when ARCH_ENABLE_SPLIT_PMD_PTLOCK is not enabled, so there is no functional change for most architectures except of the addition of __GFP_ACCOUNT for allocation of user page tables. The pmd_free() is a wrapper for free_page() in all the cases, so no functional change here.

mm: remove quicklist page table caches

2019-09-24T22:54:09+00:00

Patch series "mm: remove quicklist page table caches". A while ago Nicholas proposed to remove quicklist page table caches [1]. I've rebased his patch on the curren upstream and switched ia64 and sh to use generic versions of PTE allocation. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20190711030339.20892-1-npiggin@gmail.com This patch (of 3): Remove page table allocator "quicklists". These have been around for a long time, but have not got much traction in the last decade and are only used on ia64 and sh architectures. The numbers in the initial commit look interesting but probably don't apply anymore. If anybody wants to resurrect this it's in the git history, but it's unhelpful to have this code and divergent allocator behaviour for minor archs. Also it might be better to instead make more general improvements to page allocator if this is still so slow.

arm64: switch to generic version of pte allocation

2019-07-12T18:05:45+00:00

The PTE allocations in arm64 are identical to the generic ones modulo the GFP flags. Using the generic pte_alloc_one() functions ensures that the user page tables are allocated with __GFP_ACCOUNT set. The arm64 definition of PGALLOC_GFP is removed and replaced with GFP_PGTABLE_USER for p[gum]d_alloc_one() for the user page tables and GFP_PGTABLE_KERNEL for the kernel page tables. The KVM memory cache is now using GFP_PGTABLE_USER. The mappings created with create_pgd_mapping() are now using GFP_PGTABLE_KERNEL. The conversion to the generic version of pte_free_kernel() removes the NULL check for pte. The pte_free() version on arm64 is identical to the generic one and can be simply dropped.
