[PATCH v2] mm/huge_memory: Avoid PMD-size page cache if needed
From: Gavin Shan
Date: Sun Jul 14 2024 - 20:04:56 EST
xarray can't support arbitrary page cache size. the largest and
supported page cache size is defined as MAX_PAGECACHE_ORDER by
commit 099d90642a71 ("mm/filemap: make MAX_PAGECACHE_ORDER acceptable
to xarray"). However, it's possible to have 512MB page cache in
the huge memory's collapsing path on ARM64 system whose base page
size is 64KB. 512MB page cache is breaking the limitation and a
warning is raised when the xarray entry is split as shown in the
following example.
[root@dhcp-10-26-1-207 ~]# cat /proc/1/smaps | grep KernelPageSize
KernelPageSize: 64 kB
[root@dhcp-10-26-1-207 ~]# cat /tmp/test.c
:
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
const char *filename = TEST_XFS_FILENAME;
int fd = 0;
void *buf = (void *)-1, *p;
int pgsize = getpagesize();
int ret = 0;
if (pgsize != 0x10000) {
fprintf(stdout, "System with 64KB base page size is required!\n");
return -EPERM;
}
system("echo 0 > /sys/devices/virtual/bdi/253:0/read_ahead_kb");
system("echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches");
/* Open the xfs file */
fd = open(filename, O_RDONLY);
assert(fd > 0);
/* Create VMA */
buf = mmap(NULL, TEST_MEM_SIZE, PROT_READ, MAP_SHARED, fd, 0);
assert(buf != (void *)-1);
fprintf(stdout, "mapped buffer at 0x%p\n", buf);
/* Populate VMA */
ret = madvise(buf, TEST_MEM_SIZE, MADV_NOHUGEPAGE);
assert(ret == 0);
ret = madvise(buf, TEST_MEM_SIZE, MADV_POPULATE_READ);
assert(ret == 0);
/* Collapse VMA */
ret = madvise(buf, TEST_MEM_SIZE, MADV_HUGEPAGE);
assert(ret == 0);
ret = madvise(buf, TEST_MEM_SIZE, MADV_COLLAPSE);
if (ret) {
fprintf(stdout, "Error %d to madvise(MADV_COLLAPSE)\n", errno);
goto out;
}
/* Split xarray entry. Write permission is needed */
munmap(buf, TEST_MEM_SIZE);
buf = (void *)-1;
close(fd);
fd = open(filename, O_RDWR);
assert(fd > 0);
fallocate(fd, FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE | FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE,
TEST_MEM_SIZE - pgsize, pgsize);
out:
if (buf != (void *)-1)
munmap(buf, TEST_MEM_SIZE);
if (fd > 0)
close(fd);
return ret;
}

Fix it by correcting the supported page cache orders, different sets
for DAX and other files. With it corrected, 512MB page cache becomes
disallowed on all non-DAX files on ARM64 system where the base page
size is 64KB. After this patch is applied, the test program fails
with error -EINVAL returned from __thp_vma_allowable_orders() and
the madvise() system call to collapse the page caches.
Fixes: 6b24ca4a1a8d ("mm: Use multi-index entries in the page cache")
