[PATCH 0/8] Folio Prequel patches

[PATCH 0/8] Folio Prequel patches

[Matthew Wilcox (Oracle)]

These patches have all been posted before and not picked up yet.  I've
built the folio patches on top of them; while they are not necessarily
prerequisites in the conceptual sense, I'm not convinced that the
folio patches will build without them.  The nth_page patch is purely an
efficiency question, while patch 5 ("Make compound_head const-preserving")
is required for the current implementation of page_folio().  Patch 8
("Fix struct page layout on 32-bit systems") is required for the struct
folio layout to match struct page layout on said 32-bit systems (arm,
mips, ppc).

They are on top of next-20210430

[PATCH 1/8] mm: Optimise nth_page for contiguous memmap

[Matthew Wilcox (Oracle)]

If the memmap is virtually contiguous (either because we're using
a virtually mapped memmap or because we don't support a discontig
memmap at all), then we can implement nth_page() by simple addition.
Contrary to popular belief, the compiler is not able to optimise this
itself for a vmemmap configuration.  This reduces one example user (sg.c)
by four instructions:

        struct page *page = nth_page(rsv_schp->pages[k], offset >> PAGE_SHIFT);

before:
   49 8b 45 70             mov    0x70(%r13),%rax
   48 63 c9                movslq %ecx,%rcx
   48 c1 eb 0c             shr    $0xc,%rbx
   48 8b 04 c8             mov    (%rax,%rcx,8),%rax
   48 2b 05 00 00 00 00    sub    0x0(%rip),%rax
           R_X86_64_PC32      vmemmap_base-0x4
   48 c1 f8 06             sar    $0x6,%rax
   48 01 d8                add    %rbx,%rax

[PATCH 5/8] mm: Make compound_head const-preserving

[Matthew Wilcox (Oracle)]

If you pass a const pointer to compound_head(), you get a const pointer
back; if you pass a mutable pointer, you get a mutable pointer back.
Also remove an unnecessary forward definition of struct page; we're about
to dereference page->compound_head, so it must already have been defined.

[PATCH 8/8] mm: Fix struct page layout on 32-bit systems

[Matthew Wilcox (Oracle)]

32-bit architectures which expect 8-byte alignment for 8-byte integers
and need 64-bit DMA addresses (arm, mips, ppc) had their struct page
inadvertently expanded in 2019.  When the dma_addr_t was added, it forced
the alignment of the union to 8 bytes, which inserted a 4 byte gap between
'flags' and the union.

Fix this by storing the dma_addr_t in one or two adjacent unsigned longs.
This restores the alignment to that of an unsigned long.  We always
store the low bits in the first word to prevent the PageTail bit from
being inadvertently set on a big endian platform.  If that happened,
get_user_pages_fast() racing against a page which was freed and
reallocated to the page_pool could dereference a bogus compound_head(),
which would be hard to trace back to this cause.

I'm running them since a couple days on an arm64 machine which uses the
page_pool API. No issues so far.

Thanks!  Andrew picked up the first seven of these patches last night,
and I resent the eighth one today:

Hi Matthew, dump_page_owenr() should be called when !PagePoisoned, right?

dump_page_owner() is called whether the page is Poisoned or not ...
both before and after this patch.  Is there a problem with that?

struct page_ext *page_ext = lookup_page_ext(page);

   unsigned long pfn = page_to_pfn(page);
   struct mem_section *section = __pfn_to_section(pfn);
   if (!section->page_ext)

If page is Poisoned, I guess the section maybe NULL,
so section->page_ext may meet NULL pointer dereference,
is it possible?
