v3:
- check fatal signals in __get_user_page_locked() [Linus]
- add r-bs

v2:
- resent previous version, rebase only

This series is split out of userfaultfd-wp series to only cover the
general page fault changes, since it seems to make sense itself.

Basically it does two things:

  (a) Allows the page fault handlers to be more interactive on not
      only SIGKILL, but also the rest of userspace signals (especially
      for user-mode faults), and,

  (b) Allows the page fault retry (VM_FAULT_RETRY) to happen for more
      than once.

I'm keeping the CC list as in uffd-wp v5, hopefully I'm not sending
too much spams...

And, instead of writting again the cover letter, I'm just copy-pasting
my previous link here which has more details on why we do this:

  https://patchwork.kernel.org/cover/10691991/

The major change from that latest version should be that we introduced
a new page fault flag FAULT_FLAG_INTERRUPTIBLE as suggested by Linus
[1] to represents that we would like the fault handler to respond to
non-fatal signals.  Also, we're more careful now on when to do the
immediate return of the page fault for such signals.  For example, now
we'll only check against signal_pending() for user-mode page faults
and we keep the kernel-mode page fault patch untouched for it.  More
information can be found in separate patches.

The patchset is only lightly tested on x86.

All comments are greatly welcomed.  Thanks,

There's plenty of places around __get_user_pages() that has a parameter
"nonblocking" which does not really mean that "it won't block" (because
it can really block) but instead it shows whether the mmap_sem is
released by up_read() during the page fault handling mostly when
VM_FAULT_RETRY is returned.

We have the correct naming in e.g. get_user_pages_locked() or
get_user_pages_remote() as "locked", however there're still many places
that are using the "nonblocking" as name.

Renaming the places to "locked" where proper to better suite the
functionality of the variable.  While at it, fixing up some of the
comments accordingly.

Although there're tons of arch-specific page fault handlers, most of
them are still sharing the same initial value of the page fault flags.
Say, merely all of the page fault handlers would allow the fault to be
retried, and they also allow the fault to respond to SIGKILL.

Let's define a default value for the fault flags to replace those
initial page fault flags that were copied over.  With this, it'll be
far easier to introduce new fault flag that can be used by all the
architectures instead of touching all the archs.

handle_userfaultfd() is currently the only one place in the kernel
page fault procedures that can respond to non-fatal userspace signals.
It was trying to detect such an allowance by checking against USER &
KILLABLE flags, which was "un-official".

In this patch, we introduced a new flag (FAULT_FLAG_INTERRUPTIBLE) to
show that the fault handler allows the fault procedure to respond even
to non-fatal signals.  Meanwhile, add this new flag to the default
fault flags so that all the page fault handlers can benefit from the
new flag.  With that, replacing the userfault check to this one.

Since the line is getting even longer, clean up the fault flags a bit
too to ease TTY users.

Although we've got a new flag and applied it, we shouldn't have any
functional change with this patch so far.

The idea comes from the upstream discussion between Linus and Andrea:

  https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/10/30/560

A summary to the issue: there was a special path in handle_userfault()
in the past that we'll return a VM_FAULT_NOPAGE when we detected
non-fatal signals when waiting for userfault handling.  We did that by
reacquiring the mmap_sem before returning.  However that brings a risk
in that the vmas might have changed when we retake the mmap_sem and
even we could be holding an invalid vma structure.

This patch is a preparation of removing that special path by allowing
the page fault to return even faster if we were interrupted by a
non-fatal signal during a user-mode page fault handling routine.

The idea comes from the upstream discussion between Linus and Andrea:

https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/10/30/560

A summary to the issue: there was a special path in handle_userfault()
in the past that we'll return a VM_FAULT_NOPAGE when we detected
non-fatal signals when waiting for userfault handling.  We did that by
reacquiring the mmap_sem before returning.  However that brings a risk
in that the vmas might have changed when we retake the mmap_sem and
even we could be holding an invalid vma structure.

This patch removes the risk path in handle_userfault() then we will be
sure that the callers of handle_mm_fault() will know that the VMAs
might have changed.  Meanwhile with previous patch we don't lose
responsiveness as well since the core mm code now can handle the
nonfatal userspace signals quickly even if we return VM_FAULT_RETRY.

The idea comes from a discussion between Linus and Andrea [1].

Before this patch we only allow a page fault to retry once.  We
achieved this by clearing the FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY flag when doing
handle_mm_fault() the second time.  This was majorly used to avoid
unexpected starvation of the system by looping over forever to handle
the page fault on a single page.  However that should hardly happen,
and after all for each code path to return a VM_FAULT_RETRY we'll
first wait for a condition (during which time we should possibly yield
the cpu) to happen before VM_FAULT_RETRY is really returned.

This patch removes the restriction by keeping the
FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY flag when we receive VM_FAULT_RETRY.  It means
that the page fault handler now can retry the page fault for multiple
times if necessary without the need to generate another page fault
event.  Meanwhile we still keep the FAULT_FLAG_TRIED flag so page
fault handler can still identify whether a page fault is the first
attempt or not.

Then we'll have these combinations of fault flags (only considering
ALLOW_RETRY flag and TRIED flag):

  - ALLOW_RETRY and !TRIED:  this means the page fault allows to
                             retry, and this is the first try

  - ALLOW_RETRY and TRIED:   this means the page fault allows to
                             retry, and this is not the first try

  - !ALLOW_RETRY and !TRIED: this means the page fault does not allow
                             to retry at all

  - !ALLOW_RETRY and TRIED:  this is forbidden and should never be used

In existing code we have multiple places that has taken special care
of the first condition above by checking against (fault_flags &
FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY).  This patch introduces a simple helper to
detect the first retry of a page fault by checking against
both (fault_flags & FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY) and !(fault_flag &
FAULT_FLAG_TRIED) because now even the 2nd try will have the
ALLOW_RETRY set, then use that helper in all existing special paths.
One example is in __lock_page_or_retry(), now we'll drop the mmap_sem
only in the first attempt of page fault and we'll keep it in follow up
retries, so old locking behavior will be retained.

This will be a nice enhancement for current code [2] at the same time
a supporting material for the future userfaultfd-writeprotect work,
since in that work there will always be an explicit userfault
writeprotect retry for protected pages, and if that cannot resolve the
page fault (e.g., when userfaultfd-writeprotect is used in conjunction
with swapped pages) then we'll possibly need a 3rd retry of the page
fault.  It might also benefit other potential users who will have
similar requirement like userfault write-protection.

GUP code is not touched yet and will be covered in follow up patch.

Please read the thread below for more information.

This is the gup counterpart of the change that allows the
VM_FAULT_RETRY to happen for more than once.  One thing to mention is
that we must check the fatal signal here before retry because the GUP
can be interrupted by that, otherwise we can loop forever.

This is the gup counterpart of the change that allows the
VM_FAULT_RETRY to happen for more than once.  One thing to mention is
that we must check the fatal signal here before retry because the GUP
can be interrupted by that, otherwise we can loop forever.

I still get nervous about the signal handling here.

I'm not entirely sure we get it right even before your patch series.

Right now, __get_user_pages() can return -ERESTARTSYS when it's killed:

        /*
         * If we have a pending SIGKILL, don't keep faulting pages and
         * potentially allocating memory.
         */
        if (fatal_signal_pending(current)) {
                ret = -ERESTARTSYS;
                goto out;
        }

and I don't think your series changes that.  And note how this is true
_regardless_ of any FOLL_xyz flags (and we don't pass the
FAULT_FLAG_xyz flags at all, they get generated deeper down if we
actually end up faulting things in).

So this part of the patch:

+               if (fatal_signal_pending(current))
+                       goto out;
+
                *locked = 1;
-               lock_dropped = true;
                down_read(&mm->mmap_sem);
                ret = __get_user_pages(tsk, mm, start, 1, flags | FOLL_TRIED,
-                                      pages, NULL, NULL);
+                                      pages, NULL, locked);
+               if (!*locked) {
+                       /* Continue to retry until we succeeded */
+                       BUG_ON(ret != 0);
+                       goto retry;

just makes me go "that can't be right". The fatal_signal_pending() is
pointless and would probably better be something like

        if (down_read_killable(&mm->mmap_sem) < 0)
                goto out;

and then _after_ calling __get_user_pages(), the whole "negative error
handling" should be more obvious.

The BUG_ON(ret != 0) makes me nervous, but it might be fine (I guess
the fatal signal handling has always been done before the lock is
released?).

But exactly *because* __get_user_pages() can already return on fatal
signals, I think it should also set FAULT_FLAG_KILLABLE when faulting
things in. I don't think it does right now, so it doesn't actually
necessarily check fatal signals in a timely manner (not _during_ the
fault, only _before_ it).

See what I'm reacting to?

And maybe I'm wrong. Maybe I misread the code, and your changes. And
at least some of these logic error predate your changes, I just was
hoping that since this whole "react to signals" is very much what your
patch series is working on, you'd look at this.

Ok?

Thanks for noticing all these!  I'd admit when I was working on the
series I didn't think & test very carefully with fatal signals but
mostly I'm making sure the normal signals should work especially for
processes like userfaultfd tracees so they won't hang death (I'm
always testing with GDB, and if without proper signal handle they do
hang death..).

I agree that we should probably replace the down_read() with the
killable version as you suggested.  Though we might still want the
explicit check of fatal_signal_pending() to make sure we react even
faster because IMHO down_read_killable() does not really check signals
all the time but it just put us into killable state if we need to wait
for the mmap_sem.  In other words, if we are always lucky that we get
the lock without even waiting anything then down_read_killable() will
still ignore the fatal signals forever.

Yes it indeed looks nervous, though it's probably should be true in
all cases.  Actually we already have checks like this, for example, in
current __get_user_pages_locked():

        /* VM_FAULT_RETRY cannot return errors */
        if (!*locked) {
                BUG_ON(ret < 0);
                BUG_ON(ret >= nr_pages);
        }

And in the new retry path since we always pass in npages==1 so it must
be zero when VM_FAULT_RETRY.

While... When I'm looking into this more carefully I seem to have
found another bug that we might want to fix with hugetlbfs path:

The problem is that if *locked==0 then we've lost the mmap_sem
already!  Then we probably can't go any further before taking it back
again.  With that, we should be able to keep the previous assumption
valid.

Probably correct again at least to me...

So for current gup we never use FAULT_FLAG_KILLABLE.  However I can't
figure out a reason on why we should continue with anything if the
thread context is going to be destroyed after all.  And since we're at
it, I also noticed that userfaultfd will react upon fatal signals even
without FAULT_FLAG_KILLABLE.  So, here's the things that I think could
be good to have probably in my next post:

- Allow the gup code to always use FAULT_FLAG_KILLABLE as long as
  FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY && !FAULT_FLAG_NOWAIT (that should be when
  "locked" parameter is passed into gup), and,

- With previous change, we touch up handle_userfault() to also respect
  the fault flag, so instead of:
  
	blocking_state = return_to_userland ? TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE :
			 TASK_KILLABLE;

  We now let the blocking_state to be either (1) INTERRUPTIBLE, if
  with the new FAULT_FLAG_INTERRUPTIBLE, or (2) KILLABLE, if with
  FAULT_FLAG_KILLABLE, or (3) UNINTERRUPTIBLE.  Though if we start to
  use FAULT_FLAG_KILLABLE in gup codes then in most cases (both gup
  and the default page fault flags that most archs use) the
  userfaultfd code should also behave as before.

Does above make any sense?

There could also be considerations behind on the current model of
handling fatal signals that I totally overlooked.  I would appreciate
if anyone can point that out if so.

Yes, I'd be happy to (as long as they can be reviewed properly so I
can get a chance to fix all my potential mistakes :).
