* mm: fix TLB flush race between migration, and change_protection_rangeRik van Riel2013-12-191-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are a few subtle races, between change_protection_range (used by mprotect and change_prot_numa) on one side, and NUMA page migration and compaction on the other side. The basic race is that there is a time window between when the PTE gets made non-present (PROT_NONE or NUMA), and the TLB is flushed. During that time, a CPU may continue writing to the page. This is fine most of the time, however compaction or the NUMA migration code may come in, and migrate the page away. When that happens, the CPU may continue writing, through the cached translation, to what is no longer the current memory location of the process. This only affects x86, which has a somewhat optimistic pte_accessible. All other architectures appear to be safe, and will either always flush, or flush whenever there is a valid mapping, even with no permissions (SPARC). The basic race looks like this: CPU A CPU B CPU C load TLB entry make entry PTE/PMD_NUMA fault on entry read/write old page start migrating page change PTE/PMD to new page read/write old page [*] flush TLB reload TLB from new entry read/write new page lose data [*] the old page may belong to a new user at this point! The obvious fix is to flush remote TLB entries, by making sure that pte_accessible aware of the fact that PROT_NONE and PROT_NUMA memory may still be accessible if there is a TLB flush pending for the mm. This should fix both NUMA migration and compaction.

* mm: clear pmd_numa before invalidatingMel Gorman2013-12-191-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On x86, PMD entries are similar to _PAGE_PROTNONE protection and are handled as NUMA hinting faults. The following two page table protection bits are what defines them _PAGE_NUMA:set _PAGE_PRESENT:clear A PMD is considered present if any of the _PAGE_PRESENT, _PAGE_PROTNONE, _PAGE_PSE or _PAGE_NUMA bits are set. If pmdp_invalidate encounters a pmd_numa, it clears the present bit leaving _PAGE_NUMA which will be considered not present by the CPU but present by pmd_present. The existing caller of pmdp_invalidate should handle it but it's an inconsistent state for a PMD. This patch keeps the state consistent when calling pmdp_invalidate.

* mm,generic: only flush the local TLB in ptep_set_access_flagsRik van Riel2012-12-111-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The function ptep_set_access_flags is only ever used to upgrade access permissions to a page. That means the only negative side effect of not flushing remote TLBs is that other CPUs may incur spurious page faults, if they happen to access the same address, and still have a PTE with the old permissions cached in their TLB. Having another CPU maybe incur a spurious page fault is faster than always incurring the cost of a remote TLB flush, so replace the remote TLB flush with a purely local one. This should be safe on every architecture that correctly implements flush_tlb_fix_spurious_fault() to actually invalidate the local TLB entry that caused a page fault, as well as on architectures where the hardware invalidates TLB entries that cause page faults. In the unlikely event that you are hitting what appears to be an infinite loop of page faults, and 'git bisect' took you to this changeset, your architecture needs to implement flush_tlb_fix_spurious_fault to actually flush the TLB entry.

* thp: introduce pmdp_invalidate()Gerald Schaefer2012-10-091-0/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On s390, a valid page table entry must not be changed while it is attached to any CPU.

* thp: remove assumptions on pgtable_t typeGerald Schaefer2012-10-091-0/+39
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The thp page table pre-allocation code currently assumes that pgtable_t is of type "struct page *". This may not be true for all architectures, so this patch removes that assumption by replacing the functions prepare_pmd_huge_pte() and get_pmd_huge_pte() with two new functions that can be defined architecture-specific. It also removes two VM_BUG_ON checks for page_count() and page_mapcount() operating on a pgtable_t. Apart from the VM_BUG_ON removal, there will be no functional change introduced by this patch.

* arch/tile: allow building Linux with transparent huge pages enabledChris Metcalf2012-05-251-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The change adds some infrastructure for managing tile pmd's more generally, using pte_pmd() and pmd_pte() methods to translate pmd values to and from ptes, since on TILEPro a pmd is really just a nested structure holding a pgd (aka pte). Several existing pmd methods are moved into this framework, and a whole raft of additional pmd accessors are defined that are used by the transparent hugepage framework. The tile PTE now has a "client2" bit. The bit is used to indicate a transparent huge page is in the process of being split into subpages. This change also fixes a generic bug where the return value of the generic pmdp_splitting_flush() was incorrect. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | pmdp_get_and_clear/pmdp_clear_flush/pmdp_splitting_flush were trapped as BUG() and they were defined only to diminish the risk of build issues on not-x86 archs and to be consistent with the generic pte methods previously defined in include/asm-generic/pgtable.h. But they are causing more trouble than they were supposed to solve, so it's simpler not to define them when THP is off. This is also correcting the export of pmdp_splitting_flush which is currently unused (x86 isn't using the generic implementation in mm/pgtable-generic.c and no other arch needs that [yet]).
