This series fixes one issue with uffd + shared zeropages on s390x and
fixes that "ordinary" KVM guests can make use of shared zeropages again.
userfaultfd could currently end up mapping shared zeropages into processes
that forbid shared zeropages. This only apples to s390x, relevant for
handling PV guests and guests that use storage kets correctly. Fix it
by placing a zeroed folio instead of the shared zeropage during
UFFDIO_ZEROPAGE instead.
I stumbled over this issue while looking into a customer scenario that
is using:
(1) Memory ballooning for dynamic resizing. Start a VM with, say, 100 GiB
and inflate the balloon during boot to 60 GiB. The VM has ~40 GiB
available and additional memory can be "fake hotplugged" to the VM
later on demand by deflating the balloon. Actual memory overcommit is
not desired, so physical memory would only be moved between VMs.
(2) Live migration of VMs between sites to evacuate servers in case of
emergency.
Without the shared zeropage, during (2), the VM would suddenly consume
100 GiB on the migration source and destination. On the migration source,
where we don't excpect memory overcommit, we could easilt end up crashing
the VM during migration.
Independent of that, memory handed back to the hypervisor using "free page
reporting" would end up consuming actual memory after the migration on the
destination, not getting freed up until reused+freed again.
While there might be ways to optimize parts of this in QEMU, we really
should just support the shared zeropage again for ordinary VMs.
We only expect legcy guests to make use of storage keys, so let's handle
zeropages again when enabling storage keys or when enabling PV. To not
break userfaultfd like we did in the past, don't zap the shared zeropages,
but instead trigger unsharing faults, just like we do for unsharing
KSM pages in break_ksm().
Unsharing faults will simply replace the shared zeropage by a zeroed
anonymous folio. We can already trigger the same fault path using GUP,
when trying to long-term pin a shared zeropage, but also when unmerging
a KSM-placed zeropages, so this is nothing new.
Patch #1 tested on 86-64 by forcing mm_forbids_zeropage() to be 1, and
running the uffd selftests.
Patch #2 tested on s390x: the live migration scenario now works as
expected, and kvm-unit-tests that trigger usage of skeys work well, whereby
I can see detection and unsharing of shared zeropages.
Based on Linus master. Andrew agreed that both patches can go via the
s390x tree.

s390x must disable shared zeropages for processes running VMs, because
the VMs could end up making use of "storage keys" or protected
virtualization, which are incompatible with shared zeropages.
Yet, with userfaultfd it is possible to insert shared zeropages into
such processes. Let's fallback to simply allocating a fresh zeroed
anonymous folio and insert that instead.
mm_forbids_zeropage() was introduced in commit 593befa6ab74 ("mm: introduce
mm_forbids_zeropage function"), briefly before userfaultfd went
upstream.
Note that we don't want to fail the UFFDIO_ZEROPAGE request like we do
for hugetlb, it would be rather unexpected. Further, we also
cannot really indicated "not supported" to user space ahead of time: it
could be that the MM disallows zeropages after userfaultfd was already
registered.

2.43.2
commit fa41ba0d08de ("s390/mm: avoid empty zero pages for KVM guests to
avoid postcopy hangs") introduced an undesired side effect when combined
with memory ballooning and VM migration: memory part of the inflated
memory balloon will consume memory.
Assuming we have a 100GiB VM and inflated the balloon to 40GiB. Our VM
will consume ~60GiB of memory. If we now trigger a VM migration,
hypervisors like QEMU will read all VM memory. As s390x does not support
the shared zeropage, we'll end up allocating for all previously-inflated
memory part of the memory balloon: 50 GiB. So we might easily
(unexpectedly) crash the VM on the migration source.
Even worse, hypervisors like QEMU optimize for zeropage migration to not
consume memory on the migration destination: when migrating a
"page full of zeroes", on the migration destination they check whether the
target memory is already zero (by reading the destination memory) and avoid
writing to the memory to not allocate memory: however, s390x will also
allocate memory here, implying that also on the migration destination, we
will end up allocating all previously-inflated memory part of the memory
balloon.
This is especially bad if actual memory overcommit was not desired, when
memory ballooning is used for dynamic VM memory resizing, setting aside
some memory during boot that can be added later on demand. Alternatives
like virtio-mem that would avoid this issue are not yet available on
s390x.
There could be ways to optimize some cases in user space: before reading
memory in an anonymous private mapping on the migration source, check via
/proc/self/pagemap if anything is already populated. Similarly check on
the migration destination before reading. While that would avoid
populating tables full of shared zeropages on all architectures, it's
harder to get right and performant, and requires user space changes.
Further, with posctopy live migration we must place a page, so there,
"avoid touching memory to avoid allocating memory" is not really
possible. (Note that a previously we would have falsely inserted
shared zeropages into processes using UFFDIO_ZEROPAGE where
mm_forbids_zeropage() would have actually forbidden it)
PV is currently incompatible with memory ballooning, and in the common
case, KVM guests don't make use of storage keys. Instead of zapping
zeropages when enabling storage keys / PV, that turned out to be
problematic in the past, let's do exactly the same we do with KSM pages:
trigger unsharing faults to replace the shared zeropages by proper
anonymous folios.
What about added latency when enabling storage kes? Having a lot of
zeropages in applicable environments (PV, legacy guests, unittests) is
unexpected. Further, KSM could today already unshare the zeropages
and unmerging KSM pages when enabling storage kets would unshare the
KSM-placed zeropages in the same way, resulting in the same latency.

Ah, I compiled it only on x86, where the parameter is ignored ... and
for testing the code path I forced mm_forbids_zeropage to be 1 on x86.
Yes, this must be dst_vma->vm_mm.
Thanks!

Should it be the below insted?
#define mm_forbids_zeropage mm_forbids_zeropage
Once I add it, it fails to compile, due to the issue in patch #1.
But then I guess this series was tested with the generic
mm_forbids_zeropage() which always returns 0:

Now I get it, I compiled it all on s390x, but not the individual
patches, so patch #2 hid the issue in patch #1. Sneaky. :)
