fd8526ad14 x86/mm: Implement ASLR for hugetlb mappings
Matthew noticed that hugetlb mappings don't participate in ASLR on x86-64:

  %  for i in `seq 3`; do
  > tools/testing/selftests/vm/map_hugetlb | grep address
  > done
  Returned address is 0x2aaaaac00000
  Returned address is 0x2aaaaac00000
  Returned address is 0x2aaaaac00000

/proc/PID/maps entries for the mapping are always the same
(except inode number):

  2aaaaac00000-2aaabac00000 rw-p 00000000 00:0c 8200              /anon_hugepage (deleted)
  2aaaaac00000-2aaabac00000 rw-p 00000000 00:0c 256               /anon_hugepage (deleted)
  2aaaaac00000-2aaabac00000 rw-p 00000000 00:0c 7180              /anon_hugepage (deleted)

The reason is the generic hugetlb_get_unmapped_area() function
which is used on x86-64.  It doesn't support randomization and
use bottom-up unmapped area lookup, instead of usual top-down
on x86-64.

x86 has arch-specific hugetlb_get_unmapped_area(), but it's used
only on x86-32.

Let's use arch-specific hugetlb_get_unmapped_area() on x86-64
too. That adds ASLR and switches hugetlb mappings to use top-down
unmapped area lookup:

  %  for i in `seq 3`; do
  > tools/testing/selftests/vm/map_hugetlb | grep address
  > done
  Returned address is 0x7f4f08a00000
  Returned address is 0x7fdda4200000
  Returned address is 0x7febe0000000

/proc/PID/maps entries:

  7f4f08a00000-7f4f18a00000 rw-p 00000000 00:0c 1168              /anon_hugepage (deleted)
  7fdda4200000-7fddb4200000 rw-p 00000000 00:0c 7092              /anon_hugepage (deleted)
  7febe0000000-7febf0000000 rw-p 00000000 00:0c 7183              /anon_hugepage (deleted)

Unmapped area lookup policy for hugetlb mappings is consistent
with normal mappings now -- the only difference is alignment
requirements for huge pages.

libhugetlbfs test-suite didn't detect any regressions with the
patch applied (although it shows few failures on my machine
regardless the patch).

83467efbdb mm: migrate: check movability of hugepage in unmap_and_move_huge_page()
Currently hugepage migration works well only for pmd-based hugepages
(mainly due to lack of testing,) so we had better not enable migration of
other levels of hugepages until we are ready for it.

Some users of hugepage migration (mbind, move_pages, and migrate_pages) do
page table walk and check pud/pmd_huge() there, so they are safe.  But the
other users (softoffline and memory hotremove) don't do this, so without
this patch they can try to migrate unexpected types of hugepages.

To prevent this, we introduce hugepage_migration_support() as an
architecture dependent check of whether hugepage are implemented on a pmd
basis or not.  And on some architecture multiple sizes of hugepages are
available, so hugepage_migration_support() also checks hugepage size.

6b2dbba8b6 mm: replace vma prio_tree with an interval tree
Implement an interval tree as a replacement for the VMA prio_tree.  The
algorithms are similar to lib/interval_tree.c; however that code can't be
directly reused as the interval endpoints are not explicitly stored in the
VMA.  So instead, the common algorithm is moved into a template and the
details (node type, how to get interval endpoints from the node, etc) are
filled in using the C preprocessor.

Once the interval tree functions are available, using them as a
replacement to the VMA prio tree is a relatively simple, mechanical job.

eb48c07146 mm: hugetlbfs: correctly populate shared pmd
Each page mapped in a process's address space must be correctly
accounted for in _mapcount.  Normally the rules for this are
straightforward but hugetlbfs page table sharing is different.  The page
table pages at the PMD level are reference counted while the mapcount
remains the same.

If this accounting is wrong, it causes bugs like this one reported by
Larry Woodman:

During fork(), copy_hugetlb_page_range() detects if huge_pte_alloc()
shared page tables with the check dst_pte == src_pte.  The logic is if
the PMD page is the same, they must be shared.  This assumes that the
sharing is between the parent and child.  However, if the sharing is
with a different process entirely then this check fails as in this
diagram:

  parent
    |
    ------------>pmd
                 src_pte----------> data page
                                        ^
  other--------->pmd--------------------|
                  ^
  child-----------|
                 dst_pte

For this situation to occur, it must be possible for Parent and Other to
have faulted and failed to share page tables with each other.  This is
possible due to the following style of race.

  PROC A                                          PROC B
  copy_hugetlb_page_range                         copy_hugetlb_page_range
    src_pte == huge_pte_offset                      src_pte == huge_pte_offset
    !src_pte so no sharing                          !src_pte so no sharing

  (time passes)

  hugetlb_fault                                   hugetlb_fault
    huge_pte_alloc                                  huge_pte_alloc
      huge_pmd_share                                 huge_pmd_share
        LOCK(i_mmap_mutex)
        find nothing, no sharing
        UNLOCK(i_mmap_mutex)
                                                      LOCK(i_mmap_mutex)
                                                      find nothing, no sharing
                                                      UNLOCK(i_mmap_mutex)
      pmd_alloc                                       pmd_alloc
      LOCK(instantiation_mutex)
      fault
      UNLOCK(instantiation_mutex)
                                                  LOCK(instantiation_mutex)
                                                  fault
                                                  UNLOCK(instantiation_mutex)

These two processes are not poing to the same data page but are not
sharing page tables because the opportunity was missed.  When either
process later forks, the src_pte == dst pte is potentially insufficient.
As the check falls through, the wrong PTE information is copied in
(harmless but wrong) and the mapcount is bumped for a page mapped by a
shared page table leading to the BUG_ON.

This patch addresses the issue by moving pmd_alloc into huge_pmd_share
which guarantees that the shared pud is populated in the same critical
section as pmd.  This also means that huge_pte_offset test in
huge_pmd_share is serialized correctly now which in turn means that the
success of the sharing will be higher as the racing tasks see the pud
and pmd populated together.

Race identified and changelog written mostly by Mel Gorman.

097d59106a vm: avoid using find_vma_prev() unnecessarily
Several users of "find_vma_prev()" were not in fact interested in the
previous vma if there was no primary vma to be found either.  And in
those cases, we're much better off just using the regular "find_vma()",
and then "prev" can be looked up by just checking vma->vm_prev.

The find_vma_prev() semantics are fairly subtle (see Mikulas' recent
commit 83cd904d27: "mm: fix find_vma_prev"), and the whole "return
prev by reference" means that it generates worse code too.

Thus this "let's avoid using this inconvenient and clearly too subtle
interface when we don't really have to" patch.

5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

32b154c0b0 x86: ignore VM_LOCKED when determining if hugetlb-backed page tables can be shared or not
Addresses http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13302

On x86 and x86-64, it is possible that page tables are shared beween
shared mappings backed by hugetlbfs.  As part of this,
page_table_shareable() checks a pair of vma->vm_flags and they must match
if they are to be shared.  All VMA flags are taken into account, including
VM_LOCKED.

The problem is that VM_LOCKED is cleared on fork().  When a process with a
shared memory segment forks() to exec() a helper, there will be shared
VMAs with different flags.  The impact is that the shared segment is
sometimes considered shareable and other times not, depending on what
process is checking.

What happens is that the segment page tables are being shared but the
count is inaccurate depending on the ordering of events.  As the page
tables are freed with put_page(), bad pmd's are found when some of the
children exit.  The hugepage counters also get corrupted and the Total and
Free count will no longer match even when all the hugepage-backed regions
are freed.  This requires a reboot of the machine to "fix".

This patch addresses the problem by comparing all flags except VM_LOCKED
when deciding if pagetables should be shared or not for hugetlbfs-backed
mapping.

b4718e628d x86: add hugepagesz option on 64-bit
Add an hugepagesz=...  option similar to IA64, PPC etc.  to x86-64.

This finally allows to select GB pages for hugetlbfs in x86 now that all
the infrastructure is in place.

a551643895 hugetlb: modular state for hugetlb page size
The goal of this patchset is to support multiple hugetlb page sizes.  This
is achieved by introducing a new struct hstate structure, which
encapsulates the important hugetlb state and constants (eg.  huge page
size, number of huge pages currently allocated, etc).

The hstate structure is then passed around the code which requires these
fields, they will do the right thing regardless of the exact hstate they
are operating on.

This patch adds the hstate structure, with a single global instance of it
(default_hstate), and does the basic work of converting hugetlb to use the
hstate.

Future patches will add more hstate structures to allow for different
hugetlbfs mounts to have different page sizes.

25e59881f1 x86: stricter check in follow_huge_addr()
The first page of the compound page is determined in follow_huge_addr()
but then PageCompound() only checks if the page is part of a compound page.
PageHead() allows checking if this is indeed the first page of the
compound.

a5a19c63f4 x86: demacro asm-x86/pgalloc_32.h
Convert macros into inline functions, for better type-checking.

This patch required a little bit of fiddling with headers in order to
make __(pte|pmd)_free_tlb inline rather than macros.
asm-generic/tlb.h includes asm/pgalloc.h, though it doesn't directly
use any pgalloc definitions.  I removed this include to avoid an
include cycle, but it may cause secondary compile failures by things
depending on the indirect inclusion; arch/x86/mm/hugetlbpage.c was one
such place; there may be others.
