[RFC PATCH 00/39] 1G page support for guest_memfd

by Ackerley Tng

Hello, This patchset is our exploration of how to support 1G pages in guest_memfd, and how the pages will be used in Confidential VMs. The patchset covers: + How to get 1G pages + Allowing mmap() of guest_memfd to userspace so that both private and shared memory can use the same physical pages + Splitting and reconstructing pages to support conversions and mmap() + How the VM, userspace and guest_memfd interact to support conversions + Selftests to test all the above + Selftests also demonstrate the conversion flow between VM, userspace and guest_memfd. Why 1G pages in guest memfd? Bring guest_memfd to performance and memory savings parity with VMs that are backed by HugeTLBfs. + Performance is improved with 1G pages by more TLB hits and faster page walks on TLB misses. + Memory savings from 1G pages comes from HugeTLB Vmemmap Optimization (HVO). Options for 1G page support: 1. HugeTLB 2. Contiguous Memory Allocator (CMA) 3. Other suggestions are welcome! Comparison between options: 1. HugeTLB + Refactor HugeTLB to separate allocator from the rest of HugeTLB + Pro: Graceful transition for VMs backed with HugeTLB to guest_memfd + Near term: Allows co-tenancy of HugeTLB and guest_memfd backed VMs + Pro: Can provide iterative steps toward new future allocator + Unexplored: Managing userspace-visible changes + e.g. HugeTLB's free_hugepages will decrease if HugeTLB is used, but not when future allocator is used 2. CMA + Port some HugeTLB features to be applied on CMA + Pro: Clean slate What would refactoring HugeTLB involve? (Some refactoring was done in this RFC, more can be done.) 1. Broadly involves separating the HugeTLB allocator from the rest of HugeTLB + Brings more modularity to HugeTLB + No functionality change intended + Likely step towards HugeTLB's integration into core-mm 2. guest_memfd will use just the allocator component of HugeTLB, not including the complex parts of HugeTLB like + Userspace reservations (resv_map) + Shared PMD mappings + Special page walkers What features would need to be ported to CMA? + Improved allocation guarantees + Per NUMA node pool of huge pages + Subpools per guest_memfd + Memory savings + Something like HugeTLB Vmemmap Optimization + Configuration/reporting features + Configuration of number of pages available (and per NUMA node) at and after host boot + Reporting of memory usage/availability statistics at runtime HugeTLB was picked as the source of 1G pages for this RFC because it allows a graceful transition, and retains memory savings from HVO. To illustrate this, if a host machine uses HugeTLBfs to back VMs, and a confidential VM were to be scheduled on that host, some HugeTLBfs pages would have to be given up and returned to CMA for guest_memfd pages to be rebuilt from that memory. This requires memory to be reserved for HVO to be removed and reapplied on the new guest_memfd memory. This not only slows down memory allocation but also trims the benefits of HVO. Memory would have to be reserved on the host to facilitate these transitions. Improving how guest_memfd uses the allocator in a future revision of this RFC: To provide an easier transition away from HugeTLB, guest_memfd's use of HugeTLB should be limited to these allocator functions: + reserve(node, page_size, num_pages) => opaque handle + Used when a guest_memfd inode is created to reserve memory from backend allocator + allocate(handle, mempolicy, page_size) => folio + To allocate a folio from guest_memfd's reservation + split(handle, folio, target_page_size) => void + To take a huge folio, and split it to smaller folios, restore to filemap + reconstruct(handle, first_folio, nr_pages) => void + To take a folio, and reconstruct a huge folio out of nr_pages from the first_folio + free(handle, folio) => void + To return folio to guest_memfd's reservation + error(handle, folio) => void + To handle memory errors + unreserve(handle) => void + To return guest_memfd's reservation to allocator backend Userspace should only provide a page size when creating a guest_memfd and should not have to specify HugeTLB. Overview of patches: + Patches 01-12 + Many small changes to HugeTLB, mostly to separate HugeTLBfs concepts from HugeTLB, and to expose HugeTLB functions. + Patches 13-16 + Letting guest_memfd use HugeTLB + Creation of each guest_memfd reserves pages from HugeTLB's global hstate and puts it into the guest_memfd inode's subpool + Each folio allocation takes a page from the guest_memfd inode's subpool + Patches 17-21 + Selftests for new HugeTLB features in guest_memfd + Patches 22-24 + More small changes on the HugeTLB side to expose functions needed by guest_memfd + Patch 25: + Uses the newly available functions from patches 22-24 to split HugeTLB pages. In this patch, HugeTLB folios are always split to 4K before any usage, private or shared. + Patches 26-28 + Allow mmap() in guest_memfd and faulting in shared pages + Patch 29 + Enables conversion between private/shared pages + Patch 30 + Required to zero folios after conversions to avoid leaking initialized kernel memory + Patch 31-38 + Add selftests to test mapping pages to userspace, guest/host memory sharing and update conversions tests + Patch 33 illustrates the conversion flow between VM/userspace/guest_memfd + Patch 39 + Dynamically split and reconstruct HugeTLB pages instead of always splitting before use. All earlier selftests are expected to still pass. TODOs: + Add logic to wait for safe_refcount [1] + Look into lazy splitting/reconstruction of pages + Currently, when the KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES is invoked, not only is the mem_attr_array and faultability updated, the pages in the requested range are also split/reconstructed as necessary. We want to look into delaying splitting/reconstruction to fault time. + Solve race between folios being faulted in and being truncated + When running private_mem_conversions_test with more than 1 vCPU, a folio getting truncated may get faulted in by another process, causing elevated mapcounts when the folio is freed (VM_BUG_ON_FOLIO). + Add intermediate splits (1G should first split to 2M and not split directly to 4K) + Use guest's lock instead of hugetlb_lock + Use multi-index xarray/replace xarray with some other data struct for faultability flag + Refactor HugeTLB better, present generic allocator interface Please let us know your thoughts on: + HugeTLB as the choice of transitional allocator backend + Refactoring HugeTLB to provide generic allocator interface + Shared/private conversion flow + Requiring user to request kernel to unmap pages from userspace using madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) + Failing conversion on elevated mapcounts/pincounts/refcounts + Process of splitting/reconstructing page + Anything else!

[PATCH] selftest: drivers: Add support to check duplicate hwirq

by Joseph Jang

Validate there are no duplicate hwirq from the irq debug file system /sys/kernel/debug/irq/irqs/* per chip name. One example log show 2 duplicated hwirq in the irq debug file system. $ sudo cat /sys/kernel/debug/irq/irqs/163 handler: handle_fasteoi_irq device: 0019:00:00.0 <SNIP> node: 1 affinity: 72-143 effectiv: 76 domain: irqchip@0x0000100022040000-3 hwirq: 0xc8000000 chip: ITS-MSI flags: 0x20 $ sudo cat /sys/kernel/debug/irq/irqs/174 handler: handle_fasteoi_irq device: 0039:00:00.0 <SNIP> node: 3 affinity: 216-287 effectiv: 221 domain: irqchip@0x0000300022040000-3 hwirq: 0xc8000000 chip: ITS-MSI flags: 0x20 The irq-check.sh can help to collect hwirq and chip name from /sys/kernel/debug/irq/irqs/* and print error log when find duplicate hwirq per chip name. Kernel patch ("PCI/MSI: Fix MSI hwirq truncation") [1] fix above issue.
