Pull vfs timestamp updates from Christian Brauner:
"This adds VFS support for multi-grain timestamps and converts tmpfs,
xfs, ext4, and btrfs to use them. This carries acks from all relevant
filesystems.
The VFS always uses coarse-grained timestamps when updating the ctime
and mtime after a change. This has the benefit of allowing filesystems
to optimize away a lot of metadata updates, down to around 1 per
jiffy, even when a file is under heavy writes.
Unfortunately, this has always been an issue when we're exporting via
NFSv3, which relies on timestamps to validate caches. A lot of changes
can happen in a jiffy, so timestamps aren't sufficient to help the
client decide to invalidate the cache.
Even with NFSv4, a lot of exported filesystems don't properly support
a change attribute and are subject to the same problems with timestamp
granularity. Other applications have similar issues with timestamps
(e.g., backup applications).
If we were to always use fine-grained timestamps, that would improve
the situation, but that becomes rather expensive, as the underlying
filesystem would have to log a lot more metadata updates.
This introduces fine-grained timestamps that are used when they are
actively queried.
This uses the 31st bit of the ctime tv_nsec field to indicate that
something has queried the inode for the mtime or ctime. When this flag
is set, on the next mtime or ctime update, the kernel will fetch a
fine-grained timestamp instead of the usual coarse-grained one.
As POSIX generally mandates that when the mtime changes, the ctime
must also change the kernel always stores normalized ctime values, so
only the first 30 bits of the tv_nsec field are ever used.
Filesytems can opt into this behavior by setting the FS_MGTIME flag in
the fstype. Filesystems that don't set this flag will continue to use
coarse-grained timestamps.
Various preparatory changes, fixes and cleanups are included:
- Fixup all relevant places where POSIX requires updating ctime
together with mtime. This is a wide-range of places and all
maintainers provided necessary Acks.
- Add new accessors for inode->i_ctime directly and change all
callers to rely on them. Plain accesses to inode->i_ctime are now
gone and it is accordingly rename to inode->__i_ctime and commented
as requiring accessors.
- Extend generic_fillattr() to pass in a request mask mirroring in a
sense the statx() uapi. This allows callers to pass in a request
mask to only get a subset of attributes filled in.
- Rework timestamp updates so it's possible to drop the @now
parameter the update_time() inode operation and associated helpers.
- Add inode_update_timestamps() and convert all filesystems to it
removing a bunch of open-coding"

smaps_pte_hole_lookup() is calling shmem_partial_swap_usage() with page
table lock held: but shmem_partial_swap_usage() does cond_resched_rcu() if
need_resched(): "BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context".
Since shmem_partial_swap_usage() is designed to count across a range, but
smaps_pte_hole_lookup() only calls it for a single page slot, just break
out of the loop on the last or only page, before checking need_resched().

for sharing check
Commit 98b211d6415f ("madvise: convert madvise_free_pte_range() to use a
folio") replaced the page_mapcount() with folio_mapcount() to check
whether the folio is shared by other mapping.
It's not correct for large folios. folio_mapcount() returns the total
mapcount of large folio which is not suitable to detect whether the folio
is shared.
Use folio_estimated_sharers() which returns a estimated number of shares.
That means it's not 100% correct. It should be OK for madvise case here.
User-visible effects is that the THP is skipped when user call madvise.
But the correct behavior is THP should be split and processed then.
NOTE: this change is a temporary fix to reduce the user-visible effects
before the long term fix from David is ready.

large folio for sharing check
Patch series "don't use mapcount() to check large folio sharing", v2.
In madvise_cold_or_pageout_pte_range() and madvise_free_pte_range(),
folio_mapcount() is used to check whether the folio is shared. But it's
not correct as folio_mapcount() returns total mapcount of large folio.
Use folio_estimated_sharers() here as the estimated number is enough.
This patchset will fix the cases:
User space application call madvise() with MADV_FREE, MADV_COLD and
MADV_PAGEOUT for specific address range. There are THP mapped to the
range. Without the patchset, the THP is skipped. With the patch, the
THP will be split and handled accordingly.
David reported the cow self test skip some cases because of MADV_PAGEOUT
skip THP:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/9e92e42d-488f-47db-ac9d-75b24cd0d037@intel.com/T/#mbf0f2ec7fbe45da47526de1d7036183981691e81
and I confirmed this patchset make it work again.
This patch (of 3):
Commit 07e8c82b5eff ("madvise: convert madvise_cold_or_pageout_pte_range()
to use folios") replaced the page_mapcount() with folio_mapcount() to
check whether the folio is shared by other mapping.

When a memcg is in the process of being released mem_cgroup_tryget will
fail because its reference count has already reached 0. This can happen
during reclaim if the memcg has already been offlined, and we reclaim all
remaining pages attributed to the offlined memcg. shrink_many attempts to
skip the empty memcg in this case, and continue reclaiming from the
remaining memcgs in the old generation. If there is only one memcg
remaining, or if all remaining memcgs are in the process of being released
then shrink_many will spin until all memcgs have finished being released.
The release occurs through a workqueue, so it can take a while before
kswapd is able to make any further progress.
This fix results in reductions in kswapd activity and direct reclaim in
a test where 28 apps (working set size > total memory) are repeatedly
launched in a random sequence:
A B delta ratio(%)

When page_handle_poison() fails to handle the hugepage or free page in
retry path, soft_offline_page() will return 0 while -EBUSY is expected in
this case.
Consequently the user will think soft_offline_page succeeds while it in
fact failed. So the user will not try again later in this case.

flush_cache_vmap() must be called after new vmalloc mappings are installed
in the page table in order to allow architectures to make sure the new
mapping is visible.
It could lead to a panic since on some architectures (like powerpc),
the page table walker could see the wrong pte value and trigger a
spurious page fault that can not be resolved (see commit f1cb8f9beba8
("powerpc/64s/radix: avoid ptesync after set_pte and
ptep_set_access_flags")).
But actually the patch is aiming at riscv: the riscv specification
allows the caching of invalid entries in the TLB, and since we recently
removed the vmalloc page fault handling, we now need to emit a tlb
shootdown whenever a new vmalloc mapping is emitted
(https://lore.kernel.org/linux-riscv/20230725132246.817726-1-alexghiti@rivosinc.com/).
That's a temporary solution, there are ways to avoid that :)

GUP-fast
In contrast to most other GUP code, GUP-fast common page table walking
code like gup_pte_range() also handles hugetlb pages. But in contrast to
other hugetlb page table walking code, it does not look at the hugetlb PTE
abstraction whereby we have only a single logical hugetlb PTE per hugetlb
page, even when using multiple cont-PTEs underneath -- which is for
example what huge_ptep_get() abstracts.
So when we have a hugetlb page that is mapped via cont-PTEs, GUP-fast
might stumble over a PTE that does not map the head page of a hugetlb page
-- not the first "head" PTE of such a cont mapping.
Logically, the whole hugetlb page is mapped (entire_mapcount == 1), but we
might end up calling gup_must_unshare() with a tail page of a hugetlb
page.
We only maintain a single PageAnonExclusive flag per hugetlb page (as
hugetlb pages cannot get partially COW-shared), stored for the head page.
That flag is clear for all tail pages.
So when gup_must_unshare() ends up calling PageAnonExclusive() with a tail
page of a hugetlb page:
1) With CONFIG_DEBUG_VM_PGFLAGS
Stumbles over the:
VM_BUG_ON_PGFLAGS(PageHuge(page) && !PageHead(page), page);

2) Without CONFIG_DEBUG_VM_PGFLAGS
Always detects "not exclusive" for passed tail pages and refuses to PIN
the tail pages R/O, as gup_must_unshare() == true. GUP-fast will fallback
to ordinary GUP. As ordinary GUP properly considers the logical hugetlb
PTE abstraction in hugetlb_follow_page_mask(), pinning the page will
succeed when looking at the PageAnonExclusive on the head page only.
So the only real effect of this is that with cont-PTE hugetlb pages, we'll
always fallback from GUP-fast to ordinary GUP when not working on the head
page, which ends up checking the head page and do the right thing.
Consequently, the cow selftests pass with cont-PTE hugetlb pages as well
without CONFIG_DEBUG_VM_PGFLAGS.
Note that this only applies to anon hugetlb pages that are mapped using
cont-PTEs: for example 64k hugetlb pages on a 4k arm64 kernel.
... and only when R/O-pinning (FOLL_PIN) such pages that are mapped into
the page table R/O using GUP-fast.
On production kernels (and even most debug kernels, that don't set
CONFIG_DEBUG_VM_PGFLAGS) this patch should theoretically not be required
to be backported. But of course, it does not hurt.

additional member to mm_walk_ops to indicate locking requirements for the
walk.
The change ensures that page walks which prevent concurrent page faults
by write-locking mmap_lock, operate correctly after introduction of
per-vma locks. With per-vma locks page faults can be handled under vma
lock without taking mmap_lock at all, so write locking mmap_lock would
not stop them. The change ensures vmas are properly locked during such
walks.
A sample issue this solves is do_mbind() performing queue_pages_range()
to queue pages for migration. Without this change a concurrent page
can be faulted into the area and be left out of migration.

We shouldn't be using a GUP-internal helper if it can be avoided.
Similar to smaps_pte_entry() that uses vm_normal_page(), let's use
vm_normal_page_pmd() that similarly refuses to return the huge zeropage.
In contrast to follow_trans_huge_pmd(), vm_normal_page_pmd():
(1) Will always return the head page, not a tail page of a THP.
If we'd ever call smaps_account with a tail page while setting "compound
= true", we could be in trouble, because smaps_account() would look at
the memmap of unrelated pages.
If we're unlucky, that memmap does not exist at all. Before we removed
PG_doublemap, we could have triggered something similar as in
commit 24d7275ce279 ("fs/proc: task_mmu.c: don't read mapcount for
migration entry").
This can theoretically happen ever since commit ff9f47f6f00c ("mm: proc:
smaps_rollup: do not stall write attempts on mmap_lock"):
(a) We're in show_smaps_rollup() and processed a VMA
(b) We release the mmap lock in show_smaps_rollup() because it is
contended
(c) We merged that VMA with another VMA
(d) We collapsed a THP in that merged VMA at that position
If the end address of the original VMA falls into the middle of a THP
area, we would call smap_gather_stats() with a start address that falls
into a PMD-mapped THP. It's probably very rare to trigger when not
really forced.
(2) Will succeed on a is_pci_p2pdma_page(), like vm_normal_page()
Treat such PMDs here just like smaps_pte_entry() would treat such PTEs.
If such pages would be anonymous, we most certainly would want to
account them.
(3) Will skip over pmd_devmap(), like vm_normal_page() for pte_devmap()
As noted in vm_normal_page(), that is only for handling legacy ZONE_DEVICE
pages. So just like smaps_pte_entry(), we'll now also ignore such PMD
entries.
Especially, follow_pmd_mask() never ends up calling
follow_trans_huge_pmd() on pmd_devmap(). Instead it calls
follow_devmap_pmd() -- which will fail if neither FOLL_GET nor FOLL_PIN
is set.
So skipping pmd_devmap() pages seems to be the right thing to do.
(4) Will properly handle VM_MIXEDMAP/VM_PFNMAP, like vm_normal_page()
We won't be returning a memmap that should be ignored by core-mm, or
worse, a memmap that does not even exist. Note that while
walk_page_range() will skip VM_PFNMAP mappings, walk_page_vma() won't.
Most probably this case doesn't currently really happen on the PMD level,
otherwise we'd already be able to trigger kernel crashes when reading
smaps / smaps_rollup.
So most probably only (1) is relevant in practice as of now, but could only
cause trouble in extreme corner cases.
Let's move follow_trans_huge_pmd() to mm/internal.h to discourage future
reuse in wrong context.

Unfortunately commit 474098edac26 ("mm/gup: replace FOLL_NUMA by
gup_can_follow_protnone()") missed that follow_page() and
follow_trans_huge_pmd() never implicitly set FOLL_NUMA because they really
don't want to fail on PROT_NONE-mapped pages -- either due to NUMA hinting
or due to inaccessible (PROT_NONE) VMAs.
As spelled out in commit 0b9d705297b2 ("mm: numa: Support NUMA hinting
page faults from gup/gup_fast"): "Other follow_page callers like KSM
should not use FOLL_NUMA, or they would fail to get the pages if they use
follow_page instead of get_user_pages."
liubo reported [1] that smaps_rollup results are imprecise, because they
miss accounting of pages that are mapped PROT_NONE. Further, it's easy to
reproduce that KSM no longer works on inaccessible VMAs on x86-64, because
pte_protnone()/pmd_protnone() also indictaes "true" in inaccessible VMAs,
and follow_page() refuses to return such pages right now.
As KVM really depends on these NUMA hinting faults, removing the
pte_protnone()/pmd_protnone() handling in GUP code completely is not
really an option.
To fix the issues at hand, let's revive FOLL_NUMA as FOLL_HONOR_NUMA_FAULT
to restore the original behavior for now and add better comments.
Set FOLL_HONOR_NUMA_FAULT independent of FOLL_FORCE in
is_valid_gup_args(), to add that flag for all external GUP users.
Note that there are three GUP-internal __get_user_pages() users that don't
end up calling is_valid_gup_args() and consequently won't get
FOLL_HONOR_NUMA_FAULT set.
1) get_dump_page(): we really don't want to handle NUMA hinting
faults. It specifies FOLL_FORCE and wouldn't have honored NUMA
hinting faults already.
2) populate_vma_page_range(): we really don't want to handle NUMA hinting
faults. It specifies FOLL_FORCE on accessible VMAs, so it wouldn't have
honored NUMA hinting faults already.
3) faultin_vma_page_range(): we similarly don't want to handle NUMA
hinting faults.
To make the combination of FOLL_FORCE and FOLL_HONOR_NUMA_FAULT work in
inaccessible VMAs properly, we have to perform VMA accessibility checks in
gup_can_follow_protnone().
As GUP-fast should reject such pages either way in
pte_access_permitted()/pmd_access_permitted() -- for example on x86-64 and
arm64 that both implement pte_protnone() -- let's just always fallback to
ordinary GUP when stumbling over pte_protnone()/pmd_protnone().
As Linus notes [2], honoring NUMA faults might only make sense for
selected GUP users.
So we should really see if we can instead let relevant GUP callers specify
it manually, and not trigger NUMA hinting faults from GUP as default.
Prepare for that by making FOLL_HONOR_NUMA_FAULT an external GUP flag and
adding appropriate documenation.
While at it, remove a stale comment from follow_trans_huge_pmd(): That
comment for pmd_protnone() was added in commit 2b4847e73004 ("mm: numa:
serialise parallel get_user_page against THP migration"), which noted:
THP does not unmap pages due to a lack of support for migration
entries at a PMD level. This allows races with get_user_pages
Nowadays, we do have PMD migration entries, so the comment no longer
applies. Let's drop it.

This might_sleep() goes back a long time: it was originally introduced
way back when by commit 010060741ad3 ("x86: add might_sleep() to
do_page_fault()"), and made it into the generic VM code when the x86
fault path got re-organized and generalized in commit c2508ec5a58d ("mm:
introduce new 'lock_mm_and_find_vma()' page fault helper").
However, it turns out that the placement of that might_sleep() has
always been rather questionable simply because it's not only a debug
statement to warn about sleeping in contexts that shouldn't sleep (which
was the original reason for adding it), but it also implies a voluntary
scheduling point.
That, in turn, is less than desirable for two reasons:
(a) it ends up being done after we successfully got the mmap_lock, so
just as we got the lock we will now eagerly schedule away and
increase lock contention
and
(b) this is all very possibly part of the "oops, things went horribly
wrong" path and we just haven't figured that out yet
After all, the whole _reason_ for having that get_mmap_lock_carefully()
rather than just doing the obvious mmap_read_lock() is because this code
wants to deal somewhat gracefully with potential kernel wild pointer
bugs.
So then a voluntary scheduling point here is simply not a good idea.
We could certainly turn the 'might_sleep()' into a '__might_sleep()' and
make it be just the debug check that it was originally intended to be.
But even that seems questionable in the wild kernel pointer case - which
again is part of the whole point of this code. The problem wouldn't be
about the _sleeping_ part of the page fault, but about a bad kernel
access. The fact that that bad kernel access might happen in a section
that you shouldn't sleep in is secondary.
So it really ends up being the case that this is simply entirely the
wrong place to do this debug check and related scheduling point at all.
So let's just remove the check entirely. It's been around for over a
decade, it has served its purpose.
The re-schedule will happen at return to user space anyway for the
normal case, and the warning - if we even need it - might be better off
done as a special case for "page fault from kernel mode" once we've
dealt with any potential kernel oopses where the oops is the relevant
thing, not some artificial "scheduling while atomic" test.

generic_fillattr just fills in the entire stat struct indiscriminately
today, copying data from the inode. There is at least one attribute
(STATX_CHANGE_COOKIE) that can have side effects when it is reported,
and we're looking at adding more with the addition of multigrain
timestamps.
Add a request_mask argument to generic_fillattr and have most callers
just pass in the value that is passed to getattr. Have other callers
(e.g. ksmbd) just pass in STATX_BASIC_STATS. Also move the setting of
STATX_CHANGE_COOKIE into generic_fillattr.

The problem is that the functions tries to test and set the skip bit once
on the block, to avoid skipping on its own skip-set, using
pageblock_aligned() on the pfn as a test. But because this is the DMA
zone which starts at pfn 1, this is never true for the first block, and
the skip bit isn't set or tested at all. As a result,
fast_find_migrateblock() returns the same pageblock over and over.
If the pfn isn't pageblock-aligned, also check if it's the start of the
zone to ensure test-and-set-exactly-once on unaligned ranges.

Patch series "Fix hugetlb free path race with memory errors".
In the discussion of Jiaqi Yan's series "Improve hugetlbfs read on
HWPOISON hugepages" the race window was discovered.
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20230616233447.GB7371@monkey/
Freeing a hugetlb page back to low level memory allocators is performed
in two steps.
1) Under hugetlb lock, remove page from hugetlb lists and clear destructor
2) Outside lock, allocate vmemmap if necessary and call low level free
Between these two steps, the hugetlb page will appear as a normal
compound page. However, vmemmap for tail pages could be missing.
If a memory error occurs at this time, we could try to update page
flags non-existant page structs.
A much more detailed description is in the first patch.
The first patch addresses the race window. However, it adds a
hugetlb_lock lock/unlock cycle to every vmemmap optimized hugetlb page
free operation. This could lead to slowdowns if one is freeing a large
number of hugetlb pages.
The second path optimizes the update_and_free_pages_bulk routine to only
take the lock once in bulk operations.
The second patch is technically not a bug fix, but includes a Fixes tag
and Cc stable to avoid a performance regression. It can be combined with
the first, but was done separately make reviewing easier.
This patch (of 2):
Freeing a hugetlb page and releasing base pages back to the underlying
allocator such as buddy or cma is performed in two steps:
- remove_hugetlb_folio() is called to remove the folio from hugetlb
lists, get a ref on the page and remove hugetlb destructor. This
all must be done under the hugetlb lock. After this call, the page
can be treated as a normal compound page or a collection of base
size pages.
- update_and_free_hugetlb_folio() is called to allocate vmemmap if
needed and the free routine of the underlying allocator is called
on the resulting page. We can not hold the hugetlb lock here.
One issue with this scheme is that a memory error could occur between
these two steps. In this case, the memory error handling code treats
the old hugetlb page as a normal compound page or collection of base
pages. It will then try to SetPageHWPoison(page) on the page with an
error. If the page with error is a tail page without vmemmap, a write
error will occur when trying to set the flag.
Address this issue by modifying remove_hugetlb_folio() and
update_and_free_hugetlb_folio() such that the hugetlb destructor is not
cleared until after allocating vmemmap. Since clearing the destructor
requires holding the hugetlb lock, the clearing is done in
remove_hugetlb_folio() if the vmemmap is present. This saves a
lock/unlock cycle. Otherwise, destructor is cleared in
update_and_free_hugetlb_folio() after allocating vmemmap.
Note that this will leave hugetlb pages in a state where they are marked
free (by hugetlb specific page flag) and have a ref count. This is not
a normal state. The only code that would notice is the memory error
code, and it is set up to retry in such a case.
A subsequent patch will create a routine to do bulk processing of
vmemmap allocation. This will eliminate a lock/unlock cycle for each
hugetlb page in the case where we are freeing a large number of pages.

If unpoison_memory() fails to clear page hwpoisoned flag, return value ret
is expected to be -EBUSY. But when get_hwpoison_page() returns 1 and
fails to clear page hwpoisoned flag due to races, return value will be
unexpected 1 leading to users being confused. And there's a code smell
that the variable "ret" is used not only to save the return value of
unpoison_memory(), but also the return value from get_hwpoison_page().
Make a further cleanup by using another auto-variable solely to save the
return value of get_hwpoison_page() as suggested by Naoya.

Patch series "A few fixup patches for mm", v2.
This series contains a few fixup patches to fix potential unexpected
return value, fix wrong swap entry type for hwpoisoned swapcache page and
so on. More details can be found in the respective changelogs.
This patch (of 3):
Hwpoisoned dirty swap cache page is kept in the swap cache and there's
simple interception code in do_swap_page() to catch it. But when trying
to swapoff, unuse_pte() will wrongly install a general sense of "future
accesses are invalid" swap entry for hwpoisoned swap cache page due to

We encountered many kernel exceptions of VM_BUG_ON(zspage->isolated ==
0) in dec_zspage_isolation() and BUG_ON(!pages[1]) in zs_unmap_object()
lately. This issue only occurs when migration and reclamation occur at
the same time.
With our memory stress test, we can reproduce this issue several times
a day. We have no idea why no one else encountered this issue. BTW,
we switched to the new kernel version with this defect a few months
ago.
Since fullness and isolated share the same unsigned int, modifications of
them should be protected by the same lock.

This reverts commit 9e46e4dcd9d6cd88342b028dbfa5f4fb7483d39c.
kbuild reports a warning in memblock_remove_region() because of a false
positive caused by partial reset of the memblock state.
Doing the full reset will remove the false positives, but will allow
late use of memblock_free() to go unnoticed, so it is better to revert
the offending commit.

mbind() calls down into vma_replace_policy() without taking the per-VMA
locks, replaces the VMA's vma->vm_policy pointer, and frees the old
policy. That's bad; a concurrent page fault might still be using the
old policy (in vma_alloc_folio()), resulting in use-after-free.
Normally this will manifest as a use-after-free read first, but it can
result in memory corruption, including because vma_alloc_folio() can
call mpol_cond_put() on the freed policy, which conditionally changes
the policy's refcount member.
This bug is specific to CONFIG_NUMA, but it does also affect non-NUMA
systems as long as the kernel was built with CONFIG_NUMA.

It was pointed out[1] that using folio_test_hwpoison() is wrong as we need
to check the indiviual page that has poison. folio_test_hwpoison() only
checks the head page so go back to using PageHWPoison().
User-visible effects include existing hwpoison-inject tests possibly
failing as unpoisoning a single subpage could lead to unpoisoning an
entire folio. Memory unpoisoning could also not work as expected as
the function will break early due to only checking the head page and
not the actually poisoned subpage.

When VMAs are merged, dup_anon_vma() is called with `dst` pointing to the
VMA that is being expanded to cover the area previously occupied by
another VMA. This currently happens while `dst` is not write-locked.
This means that, in the `src->anon_vma && !dst->anon_vma` case, as soon as
the assignment `dst->anon_vma = src->anon_vma` has happened, concurrent
page faults can happen on `dst` under the per-VMA lock. This is already
icky in itself, since such page faults can now install pages into `dst`
that are attached to an `anon_vma` that is not yet tied back to the
`anon_vma` with an `anon_vma_chain`. But if `anon_vma_clone()` fails due
to an out-of-memory error, things get much worse: `anon_vma_clone()` then
reverts `dst->anon_vma` back to NULL, and `dst` remains completely
unconnected to the `anon_vma`, even though we can have pages in the area
covered by `dst` that point to the `anon_vma`.
This means the `anon_vma` of such pages can be freed while the pages are
still mapped into userspace, which leads to UAF when a helper like
folio_lock_anon_vma_read() tries to look up the anon_vma of such a page.
This theoretically is a security bug, but I believe it is really hard to
actually trigger as an unprivileged user because it requires that you can
make an order-0 GFP_KERNEL allocation fail, and the page allocator tries
pretty hard to prevent that.
I think doing the vma_start_write() call inside dup_anon_vma() is the most
straightforward fix for now.
For a kernel-assisted reproducer, see the notes section of the patch mail.

Booting x86_64 with CONFIG_EFI_PGT_DUMP=y shows messages of the form
"mm/pgtable-generic.c:53: bad pmd (____ptrval____)(8000000100077061)".
EFI_PGT_DUMP dumps all of efi_mm, including the espfix area, which is set
up with pmd entries which fit the pmd_bad() check: so 0d940a9b270b warns
and clears those entries, which would ruin running Win16 binaries.
The failing pte_offset_map() stopped such a kernel from even booting,
until a few commits later be872f83bf57 changed the pagewalk to tolerate
that: but it needs to be even more careful, to not spoil those entries.
I might have preferred to change init_espfix_ap() not to use "bad" pmd
entries; or to leave them out of the efi_mm dump. But there is great
value in staying away from there, and a pagewalk check of address against
TASK_SIZE may protect from other such aberrations too.

HWPoison: my reading of folio_test_hwpoison() is that it only tests the
head page of a large folio, whereas splice_folio_into_pipe() will splice
as much of the folio as it can: so for safety we should also check the
has_hwpoisoned flag, set if any of the folio's pages are hwpoisoned.
(Perhaps that ugliness can be improved at the mm end later.)
The call to splice_zeropage_into_pipe() risked overrunning past EOF: ask
it for "part" not "len".

lock_vma_under_rcu() tries to guarantee that __anon_vma_prepare() can't
be called in the VMA-locked page fault path by ensuring that
vma->anon_vma is set.
However, this check happens before the VMA is locked, which means a
concurrent move_vma() can concurrently call unlink_anon_vmas(), which
disassociates the VMA's anon_vma.
This means we can get UAF in the following scenario:
THREAD 1 THREAD 2

lock_vma_under_rcu()
rcu_read_lock()
mas_walk()

This is a security bug if you can hit it, although an attacker would
have to win two races at once where the first race window is only a few
instructions wide.
This patch is based on some previous discussion with Linus Torvalds on

The memblock_discard function frees the memblock.reserved.regions
array, which is good.
However, if a subsequent memblock_free (or memblock_phys_free) comes
in later, from for example ima_free_kexec_buffer, that will result in
a use after free bug in memblock_isolate_range.
When running a kernel with CONFIG_KASAN enabled, this will cause a
kernel panic very early in boot. Without CONFIG_KASAN, there is
a chance that memblock_isolate_range might scribble on memory
that is now in use by somebody else.
Avoid those issues by making sure that memblock_discard points
memblock.reserved.regions back at the static buffer.
If memblock_free is called after memblock memory is discarded, that will
print a warning in memblock_remove_region.

apply_vma_lock_flags() calls mlock_fixup(), which could merge the VMA
after where the vma iterator is located. Although this is not an issue,
the next iteration of the loop will check the start of the vma to be equal
to the locally saved 'tmp' variable and cause an incorrect failure
scenario. Fix the error by setting tmp to the end of the vma iterator
value before restarting the loop.
There is also a potential of the error code being overwritten when the
loop terminates early. Fix the return issue by directly returning when an
error is encountered since there is nothing to undo after the loop.

mmap_region adds a newly created VMA into VMA tree and might modify it
afterwards before dropping the mmap_lock. This poses a problem for page
faults handled under per-VMA locks because they don't take the mmap_lock
and can stumble on this VMA while it's still being modified. Currently
this does not pose a problem since post-addition modifications are done
only for file-backed VMAs, which are not handled under per-VMA lock.
However, once support for handling file-backed page faults with per-VMA
locks is added, this will become a race.
Fix this by write-locking the VMA before inserting it into the VMA tree.
Other places where a new VMA is added into VMA tree do not modify it
after the insertion, so do not need the same locking.

Commit 946fa0dbf2d8 ("mm/slub: extend redzone check to extra allocated
kmalloc space than requested") added precise kmalloc redzone poisoning to
the slub_debug functionality.
However, this commit didn't account for HW_TAGS KASAN fully initializing
the object via its built-in memory initialization feature. Even though
HW_TAGS KASAN memory initialization contains special memory initialization
handling for when slub_debug is enabled, it does not account for in-object
slub_debug redzones. As a result, HW_TAGS KASAN can overwrite these
redzones and cause false-positive slub_debug reports.
To fix the issue, avoid HW_TAGS KASAN memory initialization when
slub_debug is enabled altogether. Implement this by moving the
__slub_debug_enabled check to slab_post_alloc_hook. Common slab code
seems like a more appropriate place for a slub_debug check anyway.

Commit bb6e04a173f0 ("kasan: use internal prototypes matching gcc-13
builtins") introduced a bug into the memory_is_poisoned_n implementation:
it effectively removed the cast to a signed integer type after applying
KASAN_GRANULE_MASK.
As a result, KASAN started failing to properly check memset, memcpy, and
other similar functions.
Fix the bug by adding the cast back (through an additional signed integer
variable to make the code more readable).

nr_to_write is a count of pages, so we need to decrease it by the number
of pages in the folio we just wrote, not by 1. Most callers specify
either LONG_MAX or 1, so are unaffected, but writeback_sb_inodes() might
end up writing 512x as many pages as it asked for.
Dave added:
: XFS is the only filesystem this would affect, right? AFAIA, nothing
: else enables large folios and uses writeback through
: write_cache_pages() at this point...
:
: In which case, I'd be surprised if much difference, if any, gets
: noticed by anyone.

Commit c145e0b47c77 ("mm: streamline COW logic in do_swap_page()") moved
the call to swap_free() before the call to set_pte_at(), which meant that
the MTE tags could end up being freed before set_pte_at() had a chance to
restore them. Fix it by adding a call to the arch_swap_restore() hook
before the call to swap_free().

The following crash happens for me when running the -mm selftests (below).
Specifically, it happens while running the uffd-stress subtests:
kernel BUG at mm/hugetlb.c:7249!

That happens because a BUG() statement in huge_pte_alloc() attempts to
check that a pte, if present, is a hugetlb pte, but it does so in a
non-lockless-safe manner that leads to a false BUG() report.
We got here due to a couple of bugs, each of which by itself was not quite
enough to cause a problem:
First of all, before commit c33c794828f2("mm: ptep_get() conversion"), the
BUG() statement in huge_pte_alloc() was itself fragile: it relied upon
compiler behavior to only read the pte once, despite using it twice in the
same conditional.
Next, commit c33c794828f2 ("mm: ptep_get() conversion") broke that
delicate situation, by causing all direct pte reads to be done via
READ_ONCE(). And so READ_ONCE() got called twice within the same BUG()
conditional, leading to comparing (potentially, occasionally) different
versions of the pte, and thus to false BUG() reports.
Fix this by taking a single snapshot of the pte before using it in the
BUG conditional.
Now, that commit is only partially to blame here but, people doing
bisections will invariably land there, so this will help them find a fix
for a real crash. And also, the previous behavior was unlikely to ever
expose this bug--it was fragile, yet not actually broken.
So that's why I chose this commit for the Fixes tag, rather than the
commit that created the original BUG() statement.

A memory corruption was reported in [1] with bisection pointing to the
patch [2] enabling per-VMA locks for x86. Disable per-VMA locks config to
prevent this issue until the fix is confirmed. This is expected to be a
temporary measure.

I added a warning about about GUP no longer expanding the stack in
commit a425ac5365f6 ("gup: add warning if some caller would seem to want
stack expansion"), but didn't really expect anybody to hit it.
And it's true that nobody seems to have hit a _real_ case yet, but we
certainly have a number of reports of false positives. Which not only
causes extra noise in itself, but might also end up hiding any real
cases if they do exist.
So let's tighten up the warning condition, and replace the simplistic
vma = find_vma(mm, start);
if (vma && (start < vma->vm_start)) {
WARN_ON_ONCE(vma->vm_flags & VM_GROWSDOWN);
with a
vma = gup_vma_lookup(mm, start);
helper function which works otherwise like just "vma_lookup()", but with
some heuristics for when to warn about gup no longer causing stack
expansion.
In particular, don't just warn for "below the stack", but warn if it's
_just_ below the stack (with "just below" arbitrarily defined as 64kB,
because why not?). And rate-limit it to at most once per hour, which
means that any false positives shouldn't completely hide subsequent
reports, but we won't be flooding the logs about it either.
The previous code triggered when some GUP user (chromium crashpad)
accessing past the end of the previous vma, for example. That has never
expanded the stack, it just causes GUP to return early, and as such we
shouldn't be warning about it.
This is still going trigger the randomized testers, but to mitigate the
noise from that, use "dump_stack()" instead of "WARN_ON_ONCE()" to get
the kernel call chain. We'll get the relevant information, but syzbot
shouldn't get too upset about it.
Also, don't even bother with the GROWSUP case, which would be using
different heuristics entirely, but only happens on parisc.
