This is the follow-up on [1]:
[PATCH v2 0/8] mm: COW fixes part 3: reliable GUP R/W FOLL_GET of
anonymous pages
After we implemented __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SWP_EXCLUSIVE on most prominent
enterprise architectures, implement __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SWP_EXCLUSIVE on all
remaining architectures that support swap PTEs.
This makes sure that exclusive anonymous pages will stay exclusive, even
after they were swapped out -- for example, making GUP R/W FOLL_GET of
anonymous pages reliable. Details can be found in [1].
This primarily fixes remaining known O_DIRECT memory corruptions that can
happen on concurrent swapout, whereby we can lose DMA reads to a page
(modifying the user page by writing to it).
To verify, there are two test cases (requiring swap space, obviously):
(1) The O_DIRECT+swapout test case [2] from Andrea. This test case tries
triggering a race condition.
(2) My vmsplice() test case [3] that tries to detect if the exclusive
marker was lost during swapout, not relying on a race condition.
For example, on 32bit x86 (with and without PAE), my test case fails
without these patches:
$ ./test_swp_exclusive
FAIL: page was replaced during COW
But succeeds with these patches:
$ ./test_swp_exclusive
PASS: page was not replaced during COW
Why implement __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SWP_EXCLUSIVE for all architectures, even
the ones where swap support might be in a questionable state? This is the
first step towards removing "readable_exclusive" migration entries, and
instead using pte_swp_exclusive() also with (readable) migration entries
instead (as suggested by Peter). The only missing piece for that is
supporting pmd_swp_exclusive() on relevant architectures with THP
migration support.
As all relevant architectures now implement __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SWP_EXCLUSIVE,,
we can drop __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SWP_EXCLUSIVE in the last patch.
I tried cross-compiling all relevant setups and tested on x86 and sparc64
so far.
CCing arch maintainers only on this cover letter and on the respective
patch(es).
