When hugetlb_mcopy_atomic_pte() is called with:
- mode==MCOPY_ATOMIC_NORMAL and,
- we already have a page in the page cache corresponding to the
associated address,

We will allocate a huge page from the reserves, and then fail to insert it
into the cache and return -EEXIST. In this case, we need to return -EEXIST
without allocating a new page as the page already exists in the cache.
Allocating the extra page causes the resv_huge_pages to underflow temporarily
until the extra page is freed.

To fix this we check if a page exists in the cache, and allocate it and
insert it in the cache immediately while holding the lock. After that we
copy the contents into the page.

As a side effect of this, pages may exist in the cache for which the
copy failed and for these pages PageUptodate(page) == false. Modify code
that query the cache to handle this correctly.

Tested using:
./tools/testing/selftests/vm/userfaultfd hugetlb_shared 1024 200 \
/mnt/huge

Test passes, and dmesg shows no underflow warnings.

To be honest, I'm not sure I've done this bit correctly. Please take a
look and let me know what you think. It may be too overly complicated
to have !PageUptodate() pages in the cache and ask the rest of the
code to handle that edge case correctly, but I'm not sure how else to
fix this issue.

To be honest, I'm not sure I've done this bit correctly. Please take a
look and let me know what you think. It may be too overly complicated
to have !PageUptodate() pages in the cache and ask the rest of the
code to handle that edge case correctly, but I'm not sure how else to
fix this issue.

I think you just moved the underflow from hugetlb_mcopy_atomic_pte to
hugetlb_no_page.  Why?

Consider the case where there is only one reserve left and someone does
the MCOPY_ATOMIC_NORMAL for the address.  We will allocate the page and
consume the reserve (reserve count == 0) and insert the page into the
cache.  Now, if the copy_huge_page_from_user fails we must drop the
locks/fault mutex to do the copy.  While locks are dropped, someone
faults on the address and ends up in hugetlb_no_page.  The page is in
the cache but not up to date, so we go down the allocate new page path
and will decrement the reserve count again to cause underflow.

How about this approach?
- Keep the check for hugetlbfs_pagecache_present in hugetlb_mcopy_atomic_pte
  that you added.  That will catch the race where the page was added to
  the cache before entering the routine.
- With the above check in place, we only need to worry about the case
  where copy_huge_page_from_user fails and we must drop locks.  In this
  case we:
  - Free the page previously allocated.
  - Allocate a 'temporary' huge page without consuming reserves.  I'm
    thinking of something similar to page migration.
  - Drop the locks and let the copy_huge_page_from_user be done to the
    temporary page.
  - When reentering hugetlb_mcopy_atomic_pte after dropping locks (the
    *pagep case) we need to once again check
    hugetlbfs_pagecache_present.
  - We then try to allocate the huge page which will consume the
    reserve.  If successful, copy contents of temporary page to newly
    allocated page.  Free temporary page.

There may be issues with this, and I have not given it deep thought.  It
does abuse the temporary huge page concept, but perhaps no more than
page migration.  Things do slow down if the extra page allocation and
copy is required, but that would only be the case if copy_huge_page_from_user
needs to be done without locks.  Not sure, but hoping that is rare.

For what it's worth, I think I fixed the underflow with this patch,
not moved it. I added a check in hugetlb_no_page() such that if we
find a page in the cache with !PageUptodate(page), we will reuse that
page instead of allocating a new one and decrementing the count again.
Running the test with the WARN_ONCE_ON locally shows no warnings
again.

> How about this approach?

I'll give it a shot for sure. FWIW on first glance it looks more
complicated that what I have here, but my guess I'm not doing the
!PageUptodate() handling correctly and that's why it seems this
solution is simpler. I'll give it a shot though.

My bad, sorry I missed that.

I am also concerned with the semantics of this approach and what happens
when a fault races with the userfaultfd copy.  Previously I asked Peter
if we could/should use a page found in the cache for the copy.  His
answer was as follows:

 AFAICT that's the expected behavior, and it need to be like that so as to avoid
 silent data corruption (if the page cache existed, it means the page is not
 "missing" at all, then it does not suite for a UFFDIO_COPY as it's only used
 for uffd page missing case).

The interesting thing in your approach is that there was no page in the
cache before the start of the userfaultfd copy.  Yet, because we drop
the locks we could race with a fault that would normally add a page to
the cache.  Unless I am reading your patch incorrectly again, the
!PageUptodate(page) path in hugetlb_no_page is going to clear the page
in the cache.  This clearing would race with the copy to page done by
the userfaultfd code.

Ok, I will look into this more as well.  Unfortunately, there does not
appear to be a simple elegant solution.

I didn't follow the rest discussion in depth yet... but just to mention that
the above answer was for the question whether we can "update the page in the
page cache", rather than "use a page found in the page cache".

I think reuse the page should be fine, however it'll definitely break existing
user interface (as it'll expect -EEXIST for now - we have kselftest covers
that), meanwhile I don't see why the -EEXIST bothers a lot: it still tells the
user that this page was filled in already.  Normally it was filled in by
another UFFDIO_COPY (as we could have multiple uffd service threads) along with
a valid pte, then this userspace thread can simply skip this message as it
means the event has been handled by some other servicing thread.

(This also reminded me that there won't be a chance of UFFDIO_COPY race on page
 no page fault at least, since no page fault will always go into the uffd
 missing handling rather than filling in the page cache for a VM_UFFD_MISSING
 vma; while mmap read lock should guarantee VM_UFFD_MISSING be persistent)

Thanks,

Perhaps I am missing something.

Since this is a shared mapping, can we not have a 'regular' mapping to
the same range that is uffd registered?  And, that regular mappings could
fault and race with the uffd copy code?

It's complicated and would take some more time for me to be certain,
but after looking for half an hour or so this morning, I agree with
Mike that such a race is possible.

That is, we may back out into the retry path, and drop mmap_lock, and
leave a situation where a page is in the cache, but we have
!PageUptodate(). hugetlb_mcopy_atomic_pte clearly handles the
VM_SHARED case, so I don't see a reason why there can't be another
(non-userfaultfd-registered) mapping. If it were faulted at the right
time, it seems like such a fault would indeed zero the page, and then
the UFFDIO_COPY retry (once it acquired the lock again) would try to
reuse it.

Just following up this a bit: I've implemented this approach locally,
and with it it's passing the test as-is. When I hack the code such
that the copy in hugetlb_mcopy_atomic_pte() always fails, I run into
this edge case, which causes resv_huge_pages to underflow again (this
time permemantly):

- hugetlb_no_page() is called on an index and a page is allocated and
inserted into the cache consuming the reservation.
- remove_huge_page() is called on this index and the page is removed from cache.
- hugetlb_mcopy_atomic_pte() is called on this index, we do not find
the page in the cache and we trigger this code patch and the copy
fails.
- The allocations in this code path seem to double consume the
reservation and resv_huge_pages underflows.

I'm looking at this edge case to understand why a prior
remove_huge_page() causes my code to underflow resv_huge_pages.

I should also mention, without a prior remove_huge_page() this code
path works fine, so it seems the fact that the reservation is consumed
before causes trouble, but I'm not sure why yet.

Hi Mina,

How about quickly posting the code?  I may be able to provide more
suggestions if I can see the actual code.

Sure thing, attached my patch so far. It's quite messy with prints
everywhere and VM_BUG_ON() in error paths that I'm not handling yet.
I've also hacked the code so that the hugetlb_mcopy_atomic_pte() copy
always fails so I exercise that code path.

Subject: [PATCH] mm, hugetlb: fix resv_huge_pages underflow on UFFDIO_COPY

test passes.

With force copy fail, test fails resv underflows permenantly. Seems
pages are added, removed, then not found in cache double consuming the
reservation.

Sure thing, attached my patch so far. It's quite messy with prints
everywhere and VM_BUG_ON() in error paths that I'm not handling yet.
I've also hacked the code so that the hugetlb_mcopy_atomic_pte() copy
always fails so I exercise that code path.

Subject: [PATCH] mm, hugetlb: fix resv_huge_pages underflow on UFFDIO_COPY

test passes.

With force copy fail, test fails resv underflows permenantly. Seems
pages are added, removed, then not found in cache double consuming the
reservation.

Of course right after I send out my patch, I figure out what's wrong.
It turns out freeing the allocated page when the copy fails is
extremely complicated (or complicated to figure out why it's broken).
Turns out I need to:

restore_page_on_error()
if (!HPageRestoreReserves(page)) {
    hugetlb_unreserve_pages(mapping, idx, idx + 1, 1);
}
put_page(page);

This is because even though we always allocate asking for a page from
the reserves, the page may not come from the reserves if the VM
doesn't have reservation for this index (which is the case if the page
has been allocated by hugetlb_no_page() and then removed with
remove_huge_page()). So, we need to correctly handle both cases.

Sorry for the noise but this was hard to track down. Patch should be
incoming soon unless I run into other issues with a closer look.

Of course right after I send out my patch, I figure out what's wrong.
It turns out freeing the allocated page when the copy fails is
extremely complicated (or complicated to figure out why it's broken).
Turns out I need to:

restore_page_on_error()
if (!HPageRestoreReserves(page)) {
    hugetlb_unreserve_pages(mapping, idx, idx + 1, 1);
}
put_page(page);

This is because even though we always allocate asking for a page from
the reserves, the page may not come from the reserves if the VM
doesn't have reservation for this index (which is the case if the page
has been allocated by hugetlb_no_page() and then removed with
remove_huge_page()). So, we need to correctly handle both cases.

Sorry for the noise but this was hard to track down. Patch should be
incoming soon unless I run into other issues with a closer look.

Thanks. I tried locally to allocate a page, then add it into the
cache, *then* copy its contents (dropping that lock if that fails).
That also has the test passing, but I'm not sure if I'm causing a fire
somewhere else by having a page in the cache that has uninitialized
contents. The only other code that checks the cache seems to be the
hugetlb_fault/hugetlb_cow code. I'm reading that code to try to
understand if I'm breaking that code doing this.

In the caller (__mcopy_atomic_hugetlb) we obtain the hugetlb fault mutex
before calling this routine.  This should prevent changes to the cache
while in the routine.

However, things get complicated in the case where copy_huge_page_from_user
fails.  In this case, we will return to the caller which will drop mmap_lock
and the hugetlb fault mutex before doing the copy.  After dropping the
mutex, someone could populate the cache.  This would result in the same
situation where two reserves are 'temporarily' consumed for the same
mapping offset.  By the time we get to the second call to
hugetlb_mcopy_atomic_pte where the previously allocated page is passed
in, it is too late.

I have a question regarding v1: how do you guarantee huge_add_to_page_cache()
won't fail again even if checked before page alloc?  Say, what if the page
cache got inserted after hugetlbfs_pagecache_present() (which is newly added in
your v1) but before huge_add_to_page_cache()?

I also have a feeling that we've been trying to work around something else, but
I can't tell yet as I'll probably need to read a bit more/better on how hugetlb
does the accounting and also on reservations.

Thanks,

My only motivation for adding this particular warning is to make sure
this particular issue remains fixed and doesn't get re-introduced in
the future. If that's not too useful then I can remove it, no problem,
I'm not too attached to it or anything.

I've actually looked at all the resv_huge_pages underflow issues we
have internally, and upon a closer look I find that they are all on
kernels so old they don't have 1b1edc140dc7 ("hugetlbfs: dirty pages
as they are added to pagecache") or any of the others patches that
fixed resv_huge_pages issues recently. I can't seem to find instances
new enough that they would be useful to look at, so I take back what I
said earlier. If any underflow issues pop up on our newer kernels I'll
bring this up again, but for now, it seems it's just this issue
related to userfaultfd. Sorry for the noise :(

My only motivation for adding this particular warning is to make sure
this particular issue remains fixed and doesn't get re-introduced in
the future. If that's not too useful then I can remove it, no problem,
I'm not too attached to it or anything.

I've actually looked at all the resv_huge_pages underflow issues we
have internally, and upon a closer look I find that they are all on
kernels so old they don't have 1b1edc140dc7 ("hugetlbfs: dirty pages
as they are added to pagecache") or any of the others patches that
fixed resv_huge_pages issues recently. I can't seem to find instances
new enough that they would be useful to look at, so I take back what I
said earlier. If any underflow issues pop up on our newer kernels I'll
bring this up again, but for now, it seems it's just this issue
related to userfaultfd. Sorry for the noise :(

Gah, sorry about that. I'll fix in v2.

I just realized I missed CCing Andrew and the mailing lists to this
patch's review. I'll collect review comments from folks and send a v2
