This patchset is based on tag v5.12-rc3-mmots-2021-03-17-22-26.  To run the=
=0D
selftest, need to apply the two patches to fix minor mode page leak:=0D

Since I didn't get any NACK in the previous RFC series for months, I decide=
d to=0D
remove the RFC tag starting from this version, so this is v1 of uffd-wp sup=
port=0D
on shmem & hugetlb.=0D
=0D
The whole series can also be found online [1].=0D
=0D
The major comment I'd like to get is on the new idea of swap special pte.  =
That=0D
comes from suggestions from both Hugh and Andrea and I appreciated a lot fo=
r=0D
those discussions.=0D
=0D
In short, the so-called "swap special pte" in this patchset is a new type o=
f=0D
pte that doesn't exist in the past, but it got used initially in this serie=
s in=0D
file-backed memories.  It is used to persist information even if the ptes g=
ot=0D
dropped meanwhile when the page cache still existed.  For example, when=0D
splitting a file-backed huge pmd, we could be simply dropping the pmd entry=
=0D
then wait until another fault coming.  It's okay in the past since all=0D
information in the pte can be retained from the page cache when the next pa=
ge=0D
fault triggers.  However in this case, uffd-wp is per-pte information which=
=0D
cannot be kept in page cache, so that information needs to be maintained=0D
somehow still in the pgtable entry, even if the pgtable entry is going to b=
e=0D
dropped.  Here instead of replacing with a none entry, we used the "swap=0D
special pte".  Then when the next page fault triggers, we can observe orig_=
pte=0D
to retain this information.=0D
=0D
I'm copy-pasting some commit message from the patch "mm/swap: Introduce the=
=0D
idea of special swap ptes", where it tried to explain this pte in another a=
ngle:=0D
=0D
    We used to have special swap entries, like migration entries, hw-poison=
=0D
    entries, device private entries, etc.=0D
=0D
    Those "special swap entries" reside in the range that they need to be a=
t least=0D
    swap entries first, and their types are decided by swp_type(entry).=0D
=0D
    This patch introduces another idea called "special swap ptes".=0D
=0D
    It's very easy to get confused against "special swap entries", but a sp=
eical=0D
    swap pte should never contain a swap entry at all.  It means, it's ille=
gal to=0D
    call pte_to_swp_entry() upon a special swap pte.=0D
=0D
    Make the uffd-wp special pte to be the first special swap pte.=0D
=0D
    Before this patch, is_swap_pte()=3D=3Dtrue means one of the below:=0D
=0D
       (a.1) The pte has a normal swap entry (non_swap_entry()=3D=3Dfalse).=
  For=0D
             example, when an anonymous page got swapped out.=0D
=0D
       (a.2) The pte has a special swap entry (non_swap_entry()=3D=3Dtrue).=
  For=0D
             example, a migration entry, a hw-poison entry, etc.=0D
=0D
    After this patch, is_swap_pte()=3D=3Dtrue means one of the below, where=
 case (b) is=0D
    added:=0D
=0D
     (a) The pte contains a swap entry.=0D

       (a.1) The pte has a normal swap entry (non_swap_entry()=3D=3Dfalse).=

  For=0D

=0D
     (b) The pte does not contain a swap entry at all (so it cannot be pass=
ed=0D
         into pte_to_swp_entry()).  For example, uffd-wp special swap pte.=
=0D
=0D
Hugetlbfs needs similar thing because it's also file-backed.  I directly re=
used=0D
the same special pte there, though the shmem/hugetlb change on supporting t=
his=0D
new pte is different since they don't share code path a lot.=0D

=0D
Part (1): Shmem support, this is where the special swap pte is introduced.=
=0D
Some zap rework is needed within the process:=0D
=0D
  shmem/userfaultfd: Take care of UFFDIO_COPY_MODE_WP=0D
  mm: Clear vmf->pte after pte_unmap_same() returns=0D
  mm/userfaultfd: Introduce special pte for unmapped file-backed mem=0D

  shmem/userfaultfd: Handle uffd-wp special pte in page fault handler=0D
  mm: Drop first_index/last_index in zap_details=0D
  mm: Introduce zap_details.zap_flags=0D
  mm: Introduce ZAP_FLAG_SKIP_SWAP=0D
  mm: Pass zap_flags into unmap_mapping_pages()=0D
  shmem/userfaultfd: Persist uffd-wp bit across zapping for file-backed=0D
  shmem/userfaultfd: Allow wr-protect none pte for file-backed mem=0D
  shmem/userfaultfd: Allows file-back mem to be uffd wr-protected on thps=0D
  shmem/userfaultfd: Handle the left-overed special swap ptes=0D
  shmem/userfaultfd: Pass over uffd-wp special swap pte when fork()=0D
=0D
Part (2): Hugetlb support, we need to disable huge pmd sharing for uffd-wp=
=0D
because not compatible just like uffd minor mode.  The rest is the changes=
=0D
required to teach hugetlbfs understand the special swap pte too that introd=
uced=0D
with the uffd-wp change:=0D
=0D
  hugetlb/userfaultfd: Hook page faults for uffd write protection=0D
  hugetlb/userfaultfd: Take care of UFFDIO_COPY_MODE_WP=0D
  hugetlb/userfaultfd: Handle UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT=0D
  hugetlb: Pass vma into huge_pte_alloc()=0D
  hugetlb/userfaultfd: Forbid huge pmd sharing when uffd enabled=0D
  mm/hugetlb: Introduce huge version of special swap pte helpers=0D
  mm/hugetlb: Move flush_hugetlb_tlb_range() into hugetlb.h=0D
  hugetlb/userfaultfd: Unshare all pmds for hugetlbfs when register wp=0D
  hugetlb/userfaultfd: Handle uffd-wp special pte in hugetlb pf handler=0D
  hugetlb/userfaultfd: Allow wr-protect none ptes=0D
  hugetlb/userfaultfd: Only drop uffd-wp special pte if required=0D
=0D
Part (3): Enable both features in code and test=0D
=0D
  userfaultfd: Enable write protection for shmem & hugetlbfs=0D
  userfaultfd/selftests: Enable uffd-wp for shmem/hugetlbfs=0D
=0D
Tests=0D
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=0D
=0D
I've tested it using either userfaultfd kselftest program, but also with=0D
umapsort [2] which should be even stricter.  Tested page swapping in/out du=
ring=0D
umapsort.=0D
=0D
If anyone would like to try umapsort, need to use an extremely hacked versi=
on=0D
of umap library [3], because by default umap only supports anonymous.  So t=
o=0D
test it we need to build [3] then [2].=0D
=0D
Any comment would be greatly welcomed.  Thanks,=0D
