From 6ac433f8b2590b09ca00863d218665729ac985f7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mathieu Desnoyers Date: Wed, 24 Dec 2025 12:33:57 -0500 Subject: mm: rename cpu_bitmap field to flexible_array MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit The cpu_bitmap flexible array now contains more than just the cpu_bitmap. In preparation for changing the static mm_struct definitions to cover for the additional space required, change the cpu_bitmap type from "unsigned long" to "char", require an unsigned long alignment of the flexible array, and rename the field from "cpu_bitmap" to "flexible_array". Introduce the MM_STRUCT_FLEXIBLE_ARRAY_INIT macro to statically initialize the flexible array. This covers the init_mm and efi_mm static definitions. This is a preparation step for fixing the missing mm_cid size for static mm_struct definitions.

Consequently, if a mapping, like fuse, traditionally does not have data integrity semantics, there is no need to wait at all; we can simply skip these inodes. This restores fuse back to prior behavior where syncs are no-ops. This fixes a user regression where if a system is running a faulty fuse server that does not reply to issued write requests, this causes wait_sb_inodes() to wait forever.

One functional fix, one performance regression fix, and two related comment fixes. I cleaned up my prototype I recently shared [1] for the performance fix, deferring most of the cleanups I had in the prototype to a later point. While doing that I identified the other things. The goal of this patch set is to be backported to stable trees "fairly" easily. At least patch #1 and #4. Patch #1 fixes hugetlb_pmd_shared() not detecting any sharing Patch #2 + #3 are simple comment fixes that patch #4 interacts with. Patch #4 is a fix for the reported performance regression due to excessive IPI broadcasts during fork()+exit(). The last patch is all about TLB flushes, IPIs and mmu_gather. Read: complicated There are plenty of cleanups in the future to be had + one reasonable optimization on x86. But that's all out of scope for this series. Runtime tested, with a focus on fixing the performance regression using the original reproducer [2] on x86. This patch (of 4): We switched from (wrongly) using the page count to an independent shared count. Now, shared page tables have a refcount of 1 (excluding speculative references) and instead use ptdesc->pt_share_count to identify sharing. We didn't convert hugetlb_pmd_shared(), so right now, we would never detect a shared PMD table as such, because sharing/unsharing no longer touches the refcount of a PMD table. Page migration, like mbind() or migrate_pages() would allow for migrating folios mapped into such shared PMD tables, even though the folios are not exclusive. In smaps we would account them as "private" although they are "shared", and we would be wrongly setting the PM_MMAP_EXCLUSIVE in the pagemap interface. Fix it by properly using ptdesc_pmd_is_shared() in hugetlb_pmd_shared().

In particular, when we fork()+exit(), or when we munmap() a large area backed by many shared PMD tables, we perform one IPI broadcast per unshared PMD table. There are two optimizations to be had: (1) When we process (unshare) multiple such PMD tables, such as during exit(), it is sufficient to send a single IPI broadcast (as long as we respect locking rules) instead of one per PMD table. Locking prevents that any of these PMD tables could get reused before we drop the lock. (2) When we are not the last sharer (> 2 users including us), there is no need to send the IPI broadcast. The shared PMD tables cannot become exclusive (fully unshared) before an IPI will be broadcasted by the last sharer. Concurrent GUP-fast could walk into a PMD table just before we unshared it. It could then succeed in grabbing a page from the shared page table even after munmap() etc succeeded (and supressed an IPI). But there is not difference compared to GUP-fast just sleeping for a while after grabbing the page and re-enabling IRQs. Most importantly, GUP-fast will never walk into page tables that are no-longer shared, because the last sharer will issue an IPI broadcast. (if ever required, checking whether the PUD changed in GUP-fast after grabbing the page like we do in the PTE case could handle this) So let's rework PMD sharing TLB flushing + IPI sync to use the mmu_gather infrastructure so we can implement these optimizations and demystify the code at least a bit. Extend the mmu_gather infrastructure to be able to deal with our special hugetlb PMD table sharing implementation. To make initialization of the mmu_gather easier when working on a single VMA (in particular, when dealing with hugetlb), provide tlb_gather_mmu_vma(). We'll consolidate the handling for (full) unsharing of PMD tables in tlb_unshare_pmd_ptdesc() and tlb_flush_unshared_tables(), and track in "struct mmu_gather" whether we had (full) unsharing of PMD tables. Because locking is very special (concurrent unsharing+reuse must be prevented), we disallow deferring flushing to tlb_finish_mmu() and instead require an explicit earlier call to tlb_flush_unshared_tables(). From hugetlb code, we call huge_pmd_unshare_flush() where we make sure that the expected lock protecting us from concurrent unsharing+reuse is still held. Check with a VM_WARN_ON_ONCE() in tlb_finish_mmu() that tlb_flush_unshared_tables() was properly called earlier. Document it all properly. Notes about tlb_remove_table_sync_one() interaction with unsharing: There are two fairly tricky things: (1) tlb_remove_table_sync_one() is a NOP on architectures without CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE. Here, the assumption is that the previous TLB flush would send an IPI to all relevant CPUs. Careful: some architectures like x86 only send IPIs to all relevant CPUs when tlb->freed_tables is set. The relevant architectures should be selecting MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE, but x86 might not do that in stable kernels and it might have been problematic before this patch. Also, the arch flushing behavior (independent of IPIs) is different when tlb->freed_tables is set. Do we have to enlighten them to also take care of tlb->unshared_tables? So far we didn't care, so hopefully we are fine. Of course, we could be setting tlb->freed_tables as well, but that might then unnecessarily flush too much, because the semantics of tlb->freed_tables are a bit fuzzy. This patch changes nothing in this regard. (2) tlb_remove_table_sync_one() is not a NOP on architectures with CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE that actually don't need a sync. Take x86 as an example: in the common case (!pv, !X86_FEATURE_INVLPGB) we still issue IPIs during TLB flushes and don't actually need the second tlb_remove_table_sync_one(). This optimized can be implemented on top of this, by checking e.g., in tlb_remove_table_sync_one() whether we really need IPIs. But as described in (1), it really must honor tlb->freed_tables then to send IPIs to all relevant CPUs. Notes on TLB flushing changes: (1) Flushing for non-shared PMD tables We're converting from flush_hugetlb_tlb_range() to tlb_remove_huge_tlb_entry(). Given that we properly initialize the MMU gather in tlb_gather_mmu_vma() to be hugetlb aware, similar to __unmap_hugepage_range(), that should be fine. (2) Flushing for shared PMD tables We're converting from various things (flush_hugetlb_tlb_range(), tlb_flush_pmd_range(), flush_tlb_range()) to tlb_flush_pmd_range(). tlb_flush_pmd_range() achieves the same that tlb_remove_huge_tlb_entry() would achieve in these scenarios. Note that tlb_remove_huge_tlb_entry() also calls __tlb_remove_tlb_entry(), however that is only implemented on powerpc, which does not support PMD table sharing. Similar to (1), tlb_gather_mmu_vma() should make sure that TLB flushing keeps on working as expected. Further, note that the ptdesc_pmd_pts_dec() in huge_pmd_share() is not a concern, as we are holding the i_mmap_lock the whole time, preventing concurrent unsharing. That ptdesc_pmd_pts_dec() usage will be removed separately as a cleanup later. There are plenty more cleanups to be had, but they have to wait until this is fixed.

However in doing so, it incorrectly performed this check against src_vma. This check was done on the assumption that all relevant flags are copied upon fork. However the userfaultfd logic is very innovative in that it implements custom logic on fork in dup_userfaultfd(), including a rather well hidden case where lacking UFFD_FEATURE_EVENT_FORK causes VM_UFFD_WP to not be propagated to the destination VMA. And indeed, vma_needs_copy(), prior to this patch, did check this property on dst_vma, not src_vma. Since all the other relevant flags are copied on fork, we can simply fix this by checking against dst_vma. While we're here, we fix a comment against VM_COPY_ON_FORK (noting that it did indeed already reference dst_vma) to make it abundantly clear that we must check against the destination VMA.
