If thp defrag setting "defer" is used and a newline is *not* used when
writing to the sysfs file, this is interpreted as the "defer+madvise"
option.
This is because we do prefix matching and if five characters are written
without a newline, the current code ends up comparing to the first five
bytes of the "defer+madvise" option and using that instead.
Use the more appropriate sysfs_streq() that handles the trailing newline
for us. Since this doubles as a nice cleanup, do it in enabled_store()
as well.
The current implementation relies on prefix matching: the number of
bytes compared is either the number of bytes written or the length of
the option being compared. With a newline, "defer\n" does not match
"defer+"madvise"; without a newline, however, "defer" is considered to
match "defer+madvise" (prefix matching is only comparing the first five
bytes). End result is that writing "defer" is broken unless it has an
additional trailing character.
This means that writing "madv" in the past would match and set
"madvise". With strict checking, that no longer is the case but it is
unlikely anybody is currently doing this.

During split huge page, it checks the property of the page. Currently
we do the check on page and head without emphasizing the check is on the
compound page. In case the page passed to split_huge_page_to_list is a
tail page, audience would take some time to think about whether the
check is on compound page or tail page itself.
To make it explicit, use head instead of page for those checks. After
this, audience would be more clear about the checks are on compound page
and the page is used to do the split and dump error message if failed.

When check_pte, pfn of normal, hugetlbfs and THP page need be compared.
The current implementation apply comparison as
- normal 4K page: page_pfn <= pfn < page_pfn + 1
- hugetlbfs page: page_pfn <= pfn < page_pfn + HPAGE_PMD_NR
- THP page: page_pfn <= pfn < page_pfn + HPAGE_PMD_NR
in pfn_in_hpage. For hugetlbfs page, it should be page_pfn == pfn
Now, change pfn_in_hpage to pfn_is_match to highlight that comparison is
not only for THP and explicitly compare for these cases.
No impact upon current behavior, just make the code clear. I think it
is important to make the code clear - comparing hugetlbfs page in range
page_pfn <= pfn < page_pfn + HPAGE_PMD_NR is confusing.

If seq_file .next fuction does not change position index, read after
some lseek can generate unexpected output.
In Aug 2018 NeilBrown noticed commit 1f4aace60b ("fs/seq_file.c:
simplify seq_file iteration code and interface") "Some ->next functions
do not increment *pos when they return NULL... Note that such ->next
functions are buggy and should be fixed. A simple demonstration is
dd if=/proc/swaps bs=1000 skip=1
Choose any block size larger than the size of /proc/swaps. This will
always show the whole last line of /proc/swaps"
Described problem is still actual. If you make lseek into middle of
last output line following read will output end of last line and whole
last line once again.

Introduce pin_user_pages*() variations of get_user_pages*() calls, and
also pin_longterm_pages*() variations.
For now, these are placeholder calls, until the various call sites are
converted to use the correct get_user_pages*() or pin_user_pages*() API.
These variants will eventually all set FOLL_PIN, which is also
introduced, and thoroughly documented.
pin_user_pages()
pin_user_pages_remote()
pin_user_pages_fast()
All pages that are pinned via the above calls, must be unpinned via
put_user_page().
The underlying rules are:
* FOLL_PIN is a gup-internal flag, so the call sites should not directly
set it. That behavior is enforced with assertions.
* Call sites that want to indicate that they are going to do DirectIO
("DIO") or something with similar characteristics, should call a
get_user_pages()-like wrapper call that sets FOLL_PIN. These wrappers
will:
* Start with "pin_user_pages" instead of "get_user_pages". That
makes it easy to find and audit the call sites.
* Set FOLL_PIN
* For pages that are received via FOLL_PIN, those pages must be returned
via put_user_page().
Thanks to Jan Kara and Vlastimil Babka for explaining the 4 cases in
this documentation. (I've reworded it and expanded upon it.)

As it says in the updated comment in gup.c: current FOLL_LONGTERM
behavior is incompatible with FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY because of the FS
DAX check requirement on vmas.
However, the corresponding restriction in get_user_pages_remote() was
slightly stricter than is actually required: it forbade all
FOLL_LONGTERM callers, but we can actually allow FOLL_LONGTERM callers
that do not set the "locked" arg.
Update the code and comments to loosen the restriction, allowing
FOLL_LONGTERM in some cases.
Also, copy the DAX check ("if a VMA is DAX, don't allow long term
pinning") from the VFIO call site, all the way into the internals of
get_user_pages_remote() and __gup_longterm_locked(). That is:
get_user_pages_remote() calls __gup_longterm_locked(), which in turn
calls check_dax_vmas(). This check will then be removed from the VFIO
call site in a subsequent patch.
Thanks to Jason Gunthorpe for pointing out a clean way to fix this, and
to Dan Williams for helping clarify the DAX refactoring.

An upcoming patch changes and complicates the refcounting and especially
the "put page" aspects of it. In order to keep everything clean,
refactor the devmap page release routines:
* Rename put_devmap_managed_page() to page_is_devmap_managed(), and
limit the functionality to "read only": return a bool, with no side
effects.
* Add a new routine, put_devmap_managed_page(), to handle decrementing
the refcount for ZONE_DEVICE pages.
* Change callers (just release_pages() and put_page()) to check
page_is_devmap_managed() before calling the new
put_devmap_managed_page() routine. This is a performance point:
put_page() is a hot path, so we need to avoid non- inline function calls
where possible.
* Rename __put_devmap_managed_page() to free_devmap_managed_page(), and
limit the functionality to unconditionally freeing a devmap page.
This is originally based on a separate patch by Ira Weiny, which applied
to an early version of the put_user_page() experiments. Since then,
Jérôme Glisse suggested the refactoring described above.

Patch series "mm/gup: prereqs to track dma-pinned pages: FOLL_PIN", v12.
Overview:
This is a prerequisite to solving the problem of proper interactions
between file-backed pages, and [R]DMA activities, as discussed in [1],
[2], [3], and in a remarkable number of email threads since about
2017. :)
A new internal gup flag, FOLL_PIN is introduced, and thoroughly
documented in the last patch's Documentation/vm/pin_user_pages.rst.
I believe that this will provide a good starting point for doing the
layout lease work that Ira Weiny has been working on. That's because
these new wrapper functions provide a clean, constrained, systematically
named set of functionality that, again, is required in order to even
know if a page is "dma-pinned".
In contrast to earlier approaches, the page tracking can be
incrementally applied to the kernel call sites that, until now, have
been simply calling get_user_pages() ("gup"). In other words, opt-in by
changing from this:
get_user_pages() (sets FOLL_GET)
put_page()
to this:
pin_user_pages() (sets FOLL_PIN)
unpin_user_page()
Testing:
* I've done some overall kernel testing (LTP, and a few other goodies),
and some directed testing to exercise some of the changes. And as you
can see, gup_benchmark is enhanced to exercise this. Basically, I've
been able to runtime test the core get_user_pages() and
pin_user_pages() and related routines, but not so much on several of
the call sites--but those are generally just a couple of lines
changed, each.
Not much of the kernel is actually using this, which on one hand
reduces risk quite a lot. But on the other hand, testing coverage
is low. So I'd love it if, in particular, the Infiniband and PowerPC
folks could do a smoke test of this series for me.
Runtime testing for the call sites so far is pretty light:
* io_uring: Some directed tests from liburing exercise this, and
they pass.
* process_vm_access.c: A small directed test passes.
* gup_benchmark: the enhanced version hits the new gup.c code, and
passes.
* infiniband: Ran rdma-core tests: rdma-core/build/bin/run_tests.py
* VFIO: compiles (I'm vowing to set up a run time test soon, but it's
not ready just yet)
* powerpc: it compiles...
* drm/via: compiles...
* goldfish: compiles...
* net/xdp: compiles...
* media/v4l2: compiles...

This patch (of 22):
There are four locations in gup.c that have a fair amount of code
duplication. This means that changing one requires making the same
changes in four places, not to mention reading the same code four times,
and wondering if there are subtle differences.
Factor out the common code into static functions, thus reducing the
overall line count and the code's complexity.
Also, take the opportunity to slightly improve the efficiency of the
error cases, by doing a mass subtraction of the refcount, surrounded by
get_page()/put_page().
Also, further simplify (slightly), by waiting until the the successful
end of each routine, to increment *nr.

sorry for not processing for a long time. I met it again.
patch v1 https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/9/20/656
do_machine_check()
do_memory_failure()
memory_failure()
hw_poison_user_mappings()
try_to_unmap()
pteval = swp_entry_to_pte(make_hwpoison_entry(subpage));
...and now we have a swap entry that indicates that the page entry
refers to a bad (and poisoned) page of memory, but gup_fast() at this
level of the page table was ignoring swap entries, and incorrectly
assuming that "!pxd_none() == valid and present".
And this was not just a poisoned page problem, but a generaly swap entry
problem. So, any swap entry type (device memory migration, numa
migration, or just regular swapping) could lead to the same problem.
Fix this by checking for pxd_present(), instead of pxd_none().
