[PATCH mm-unstable v2 00/16] mm: Introduce arch_mmap_hint()

[Kalesh Singh]

Hi all,

This is v2 othe the arch_mmap_hint() series.

Changes in v2:
  - MAP_FIXED case is also handled in arch_mmap_hint() since this is just a
    special case of the hint addr being "enforced", per Yang Shi.
  - Consolidate most of the error handling in arch_mmap_hint().
  - Patch 16 ("mm: Fallback to generic_mmap_hint()") was folded into
    Patch 2 ("mm: x86: Introduce arch_mmap_hint()")

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20241210024119.2488608-1-kaleshsingh@google.com/

=======

This series introduces arch_mmap_hint() to handle allocating VA space
for the hint address.

Patches 1-16 introduce this new helper and Patch 17 uses it to fix the
issue of mmap hint being ignored in some cases due to THP alignment [1]

Thanks,
Kalesh

[PATCH mm-unstable v2 01/16] mm: Introduce generic_mmap_hint()

[Kalesh Singh]

Consolidate the hint searches from both directions (topdown and
bottomup) into generic_mmap_hint().

No functional change is introduced.

[PATCH mm-unstable v2 02/16] mm: x86: Introduce arch_mmap_hint()

[Kalesh Singh]

Introduce x86 arch_mmap_hint() and define HAVE_ARCH_MMAP_HINT.
This is a preparatory patch, no functional change is introduced.

Fallback to generic_mmap_hint() if an architecture doesn't
provide HAVE_ARCH_MMAP_HINT.

Signed-off-by: Kalesh Singh <kaleshsingh@google.com>
---

Changes in v2:
  - MAP_FIXED case is also handled in arch_mmap_hint() since this is just a
    special case of the hint addr being "enforced", per Yang Shi.
  - Consolidate most of the error handling in arch_mmap_hint().
  - Fallback to generic_mmap_hint() if arch_mmap_hint() is not provided.

You have changed the order of the map fixed check and the len check.

I *think* what you have done is correct, but your comment is certainly
wrong.

Your generic call also has more checks than exist in this version of the
code - which, again is probably good, but a functional change surely?

This also looks like it has changed the validation order and potentially
introduced functional changes?

All these stem from the same cloned code (sparc32 iirc), but were not
updated when the cloned code was updated.  This is why I am against
arch_* code.  We should find a better way to unify the code so that
there is nothing different.  You seem to have gotten some of the shared
code together, but some still exists.

In the addresses, there are upper and lower limits, and sometimes
"colours".  Could we not just define the upper/lower limits in each arch
and if colour is used?  Maybe this is complicated with 32/64 handled
both in the 64 bit code.

Is there any plan to unite this code further?

We have had errors for many years in cloned but not updated code.  I
really wish there was more information in the cover letter on what is
going on here.  I'd like to try and reduce the arch_ code to, basically
nothing.

I was also disappointed that I wasn't Cc'ed because I've spent a lot of
time in this code and this area.  I am probably the last one to crawl
through and change any of this.

[PATCH mm-unstable v2 07/16] mm: loongarch: Introduce arch_mmap_hint()

[Kalesh Singh]

Introduce loongarch arch_mmap_hint() and define HAVE_ARCH_MMAP_HINT.
This is a preparatory patch, no functional change is introduced.

Signed-off-by: Kalesh Singh <kaleshsingh@google.com>

Changes in v2:
  - MAP_FIXED case is also handled in arch_mmap_hint() since this is just a
    special case of the hint addr being "enforced", per Yang Shi.
  - Consolidate error handling in arch_mmap_hint().

[PATCH mm-unstable v2 11/16] mm: sh: Introduce arch_mmap_hint()

[Kalesh Singh]

Introduce sh arch_mmap_hint() and define HAVE_ARCH_MMAP_HINT.
This is a preparatory patch, no functional change is introduced.

Signed-off-by: Kalesh Singh <kaleshsingh@google.com>

Changes in v2:
  - MAP_FIXED case is also handled in arch_mmap_hint() since this is just a
    special case of the hint addr being "enforced", per Yang Shi.
  - Consolidate error handling in arch_mmap_hint().

[PATCH mm-unstable v2 16/16] mm: Respect mmap hint before THP alignment if allocation is possible

[Kalesh Singh]

Commit 249608ee4713 ("mm: respect mmap hint address when aligning for THP")
fallsback to PAGE_SIZE alignment instead of THP alignment
for anonymous mapping as long as a hint address is provided by the user
-- even if we weren't able to allocate the unmapped area at the hint
address in the end.

This was done to address the immediate regression in anonymous mappings
where the hint address were being ignored in some cases; due to commit
efa7df3e3bb5 ("mm: align larger anonymous mappings on THP boundaries").

It was later pointed out that this issue also existed for file-backed
mappings from file systems that use thp_get_unmapped_area() for their
.get_unmapped_area() file operation.

The same fix was not applied for file-backed mappings since it would
mean any mmap requests that provide a hint address would be only
PAGE_SIZE-aligned regardless of whether allocation was successful at
the hint address or not.

Instead, use arch_mmap_hint() to first attempt allocation at the hint
address and fallback to THP alignment if there isn't sufficient VA space
to satisfy the allocation at the hint address.

Why?  Could we get more details in your cover letter please?  This
entire email has as much detail as the subject line.

I don't want more arch_ anything.  If we can do this in a more generic
way, then we should.

Re: [PATCH mm-unstable v2 00/16] mm: Introduce arch_mmap_hint()

[Lorenzo Stoakes]

NACK.

Resend this _as an RFC_, _with the correct maintainers and reviewers cc'd_.

You've fundamentally violated kernel process and etiquette. I'd be more
forgiving, but this is at v2 and you've not cc'd KEY people. Twice. This is
totally unacceptable. See [0] if you are unsure of how to do so.

You've also sent a 16 patch series (!) immediately prior to the holidays
(!!) introducing an arch hook (!!!), which is strictly something we want to
try to avoid or lessen in future, which you'd know, had you followed basic
kernel etiquette and process and cc'd us on v1.

Any discussion that will be had here with others we won't be cc'd on, it's
16 patches, this isn't workable.

I'm on holiday from next week, it's not really fair to put this all on Liam
immediately prior to Christmas, so let's just examine this as an RFC first.

I hate to think that I need to set lei rules to catch stuff like this, but
clearly, I do. I will be updating these to check on all relevant
files. Sigh.

Thanks Liam.

Yes the cover letter is ridiculously small for what that is doing.

This feels excessive to me.  linux-mm averages a mere 140 mesages/day
and it seems reasonable to assume that key people are spending their 5
minutes to scroll through the email subjects.

In practice we did all miss it, and I don't think it's unreasonable to ask
people to run get_maintainers.pl to avoid this.

In any case, I truly do think this series works better as RFC, I mean Liam
has already voiced the kind of disagreements I share with it, and we need
to rethink how to approach it in general.

So if this is simply sent as RFC with the correct cc's (and ideally with
some review feedback applied - a better cover letter, etc.) then it makes
everything easier.

As mentioned the timing is unfortunate here, this is a series we really
want to make sure is properly reviewed before any chance of merge so again
this points to RFC being the way forward.

Hi everyone,

Sorry for the delayed response -- I was traveling and didn’t have
access to email.

Thank you for the feedback. I realize I missed some key reviewers in
the CC list for this patch.
When I ran get_maintainer.pl, it returned a large list of recipients.
To avoid over-CC’ing people (which has been an issue for me in the
past), I tried to trim it down to maintainers and a few others I
thought would be interested. Clearly, I got it wrong and missed some
key folks. That was not my intention, and I’ll make sure to fix it
when I resend the patch as an RFC.

On the technical side, Liam is right that the copy-pasted arch code
has inconsistencies (missing checks, order of checks, ...). I agree
there’s room for further consolidation. I’ll take another stab at it
and resend it as an RFC with an updated cover letter, as Lorenzo and
others suggested.

Thanks,
Kalesh

Sure thanks :) Much appreciated. Sorry to be so curt there, just I think
important to underline.

We just want to make sure we can find a way to get this series sorted out
so we can get it merged in a form that makes sense overall, ultimately! :)

The most useful thing here as well to help us understand would be to write
more in the cover letter to expand on what it is you ultimately what to
achieve here - it seems like an extension on the existing THP work on a
per-arch basis (I may be wrong)? So adding more detail would be super
useful here! :)

We do hope to avoid arch hooks if at all possible explicitly for the reason
that they can be applied at unfortunate times in terms of locking/whether
the objects in question are fully/partially instantiated, VMA visibility
etc. etc. based on having had issues in these areas before.

Also if a hook means 'anything' can happen at a certain point, it means we
can't make any assumptions about what has/hasn't and have to account for
anything which seriously complicates things.

Ideally we'd find a means to achieve the same thing while also exposing us
as little as possible to what may be mutated.

Thanks.  Can you please include what platforms you have tested in your
cover letter (and level of testing - booting, running something, etc).

If you have not tested them, then it might be worth it to have it as an
RFC to point this out - at least initially.  Some of these are very
difficult to set up for testing, but it is also possible that you did
that and the maintainers/people who usually test these things will
assume it's fine if you don't spell out what's going on.

Yes, I'm not sure of what your plans are, but I would like to see all of
these custom functions removed, if at all possible.

Thanks,

I build-tested most of these except (csky and loongarch) and ran
android runtime (ART) tests on arm64 and x86. I can try to spin up a
few of the others and will add it to the description.

Initially I think we can remove the mmap hint portion of the logic;
and follow up with removing arch_get_unmapped_area[_topdown](). Some
of those may not make sense to consolidate e.g. powerpc's
slice_get_unmapped_area() which doesn't share much in common with the
rest.

But why?  You're basically forcing me to read the entire series to
figure out what you're doing and why.  I decline.
