From: Jeff Xu <jeffxu@xxxxxxxxxxxx> mremap doesn't allow relocate, expand, shrink across VMA boundaries, refactor the code to check src address range before doing anything on the destination, i.e. destination won't be unmapped, if src address failed the boundaries check. This also allows us to remove can_modify_mm from mremap.c, since the src address must be single VMA, can_modify_vma is used. It is likely this will improve the performance on mremap, previously the code does sealing check using can_modify_mm for the src address range, and the new code removed the loop (used by can_modify_mm). In order to verify this patch doesn't regress on mremap, I added tests in mseal_test, the test patch can be applied before mremap refactor patch or checkin independently. Also this patch doesn't change mseal's existing schematic: if sealing fail, user can expect the src/dst address isn't updated. So this patch can be applied regardless if we decided to go with current out-of-loop approach or in-loop approach currently in discussion. Regarding the perf test report by stress-ng [1] title: 8be7258aad: stress-ng.pagemove.page_remaps_per_sec -4.4% regression The test is using below for testing: stress-ng --timeout 60 --times --verify --metrics --no-rand-seed --pagemove 64 I can't repro this using ChromeOS, the pagemove test shows large value of stddev and stderr, and can't reasonably refect the performance impact. For example: I write a c program [2] to run the above pagemove test 10 times and calculate the stddev, stderr, for 3 commits: 1> before mseal feature is added: Ops/sec: Mean : 3564.40 Std Dev : 2737.35 (76.80% of Mean) Std Err : 865.63 (24.29% of Mean) 2> after mseal feature is added: Ops/sec: Mean : 2703.84 Std Dev : 2085.13 (77.12% of Mean) Std Err : 659.38 (24.39% of Mean) 3> after current patch (mremap refactor) Ops/sec: Mean : 3603.67 Std Dev : 2422.22 (67.22% of Mean) Std Err : 765.97 (21.26% of Mean) The result shows 21%-24% stderr, this means whatever perf improvment/impact there might be won't be measured correctly by this test. This test machine has 32G memory, Intel(R) Celeron(R) 7305, 5 CPU. And I reboot the machine before each test, and take the first 10 runs with run_stress_ng 10 (I will run longer duration to see if test still shows large stdDev,StdErr) [1] https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/202408041602.caa0372-oliver.sang@xxxxxxxxx/ [2] https://github.com/peaktocreek/mmperf/blob/main/run_stress_ng.c Jeff Xu (2): mseal:selftest mremap across VMA boundaries. mseal: refactor mremap to remove can_modify_mm mm/internal.h | 24 ++ mm/mremap.c | 77 +++---- mm/mseal.c | 17 -- tools/testing/selftests/mm/mseal_test.c | 293 +++++++++++++++++++++++- 4 files changed, 353 insertions(+), 58 deletions(-) -- 2.46.0.76.ge559c4bf1a-goog
