mmu-notifier-core

With KVM/GFP/XPMEM there isn't just the primary CPU MMU pointing to
pages. There are secondary MMUs (with secondary sptes and secondary
tlbs) too. sptes in the kvm case are shadow pagetables, but when I say
spte in mmu-notifier context, I mean "secondary pte". In GRU case
there's no actual secondary pte and there's only a secondary tlb
because the GRU secondary MMU has no knowledge about sptes and every
secondary tlb miss event in the MMU always generates a page fault that
has to be resolved by the CPU (this is not the case of KVM where the a
secondary tlb miss will walk sptes in hardware and it will refill the
secondary tlb transparently to software if the corresponding spte is
present). The same way zap_page_range has to invalidate the pte before
freeing the page, the spte (and secondary tlb) must also be
invalidated before any page is freed and reused.

Currently we take a page_count pin on every page mapped by sptes, but
that means the pages can't be swapped whenever they're mapped by any
spte because they're part of the guest working set. Furthermore a spte
unmap event can immediately lead to a page to be freed when the pin is
released (so requiring the same complex and relatively slow tlb_gather
smp safe logic we have in zap_page_range and that can be avoided
completely if the spte unmap event doesn't require an unpin of the
page previously mapped in the secondary MMU).

The mmu notifiers allow kvm/GRU/XPMEM to attach to the tsk->mm and
know when the VM is swapping or freeing or doing anything on the
primary MMU so that the secondary MMU code can drop sptes before the
pages are freed, avoiding all page pinning and allowing 100% reliable
swapping of guest physical address space. Furthermore it avoids the
code that teardown the mappings of the secondary MMU, to implement a
logic like tlb_gather in zap_page_range that would require many IPI to
flush other cpu tlbs, for each fixed number of spte unmapped.

To make an example: if what happens on the primary MMU is a protection
downgrade (from writeable to wrprotect) the secondary MMU mappings
will be invalidated, and the next secondary-mmu-page-fault will call
get_user_pages and trigger a do_wp_page through get_user_pages if it
called get_user_pages with write=1, and it'll re-establishing an
updated spte or secondary-tlb-mapping on the copied page. Or it will
setup a readonly spte or readonly tlb mapping if it's a guest-read, if
it calls get_user_pages with write=0. This is just an example.

This allows to map any page pointed by any pte (and in turn visible in
the primary CPU MMU), into a secondary MMU (be it a pure tlb like GRU,
or an full MMU with both sptes and secondary-tlb like the
shadow-pagetable layer with kvm), or a remote DMA in software like
XPMEM (hence needing of schedule in XPMEM code to send the invalidate
to the remote node, while no need to schedule in kvm/gru as it's an
immediate event like invalidating primary-mmu pte).

At least for KVM without this patch it's impossible to swap guests
reliably. And having this feature and removing the page pin allows
several other optimizations that simplify life considerably.

Dependencies:

1) Introduces list_del_init_rcu and documents it (fixes a comment for
   list_del_rcu too)

2) mm_lock() to register the mmu notifier when the whole VM isn't
   doing anything with "mm". This allows mmu notifier users to keep
   track if the VM is in the middle of the invalidate_range_begin/end
   critical section with an atomic counter incraese in range_begin and
   decreased in range_end. No secondary MMU page fault is allowed to
   map any spte or secondary tlb reference, while the VM is in the
   middle of range_begin/end as any page returned by get_user_pages in
   that critical section could later immediately be freed without any
   further ->invalidate_page notification (invalidate_range_begin/end
   works on ranges and ->invalidate_page isn't called immediately
   before freeing the page). To stop all page freeing and pagetable
   overwrites the mmap_sem must be taken in write mode and all other
   anon_vma/i_mmap locks must be taken in virtual address order. The
   order is critical to avoid mm_lock(mm1) and mm_lock(mm2) running
   concurrently to trigger lock inversion deadlocks.

3) It'd be a waste to add branches in the VM if nobody could possibly
   run KVM/GRU/XPMEM on the kernel, so mmu notifiers will only enabled
   if CONFIG_KVM=m/y. In the current kernel kvm won't yet take
   advantage of mmu notifiers, but this already allows to compile a
   KVM external module against a kernel with mmu notifiers enabled and
   from the next pull from kvm.git we'll start using them. And
   GRU/XPMEM will also be able to continue the development by enabling
   KVM=m in their config, until they submit all GRU/XPMEM GPLv2 code
   to the mainline kernel. Then they can also enable MMU_NOTIFIERS in
   the same way KVM does it (even if KVM=n). This guarantees nobody
   selects MMU_NOTIFIER=y if KVM and GRU and XPMEM are all =n.

The mmu_notifier_register call can fail because mm_lock may not
allocate the required vmalloc space. See the comment on top of
mm_lock() implementation for the worst case memory requirements.
Because mmu_notifier_reigster is used when a driver startup, a failure
can be gracefully handled. Here an example of the change applied to
kvm to register the mmu notifiers. Usually when a driver startups
other allocations are required anyway and -ENOMEM failure paths exists
already.

 struct  kvm *kvm_arch_create_vm(void)
 {
        struct kvm *kvm = kzalloc(sizeof(struct kvm), GFP_KERNEL);
+       int err;

        if (!kvm)
                return ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM);

        INIT_LIST_HEAD(&kvm->arch.active_mmu_pages);

+       kvm->arch.mmu_notifier.ops = &kvm_mmu_notifier_ops;
+       err = mmu_notifier_register(&kvm->arch.mmu_notifier, current->mm);
+       if (err) {
+               kfree(kvm);
+               return ERR_PTR(err);
+       }
+
        return kvm;
 }

mmu_notifier_unregister returns void and it's reliable.
