Introduce a new syscall, refpage_create, which returns a file descriptor which may be mapped using mmap. Such a mapping is similar to an anonymous mapping, but instead of clean pages being backed by the zero page, they are instead backed by a so-called reference page, whose contents are specified using an argument to refpage_create. Loads from the mapping will load directly from the reference page, and initial stores to the mapping will copy-on-write from the reference page. Reference pages are useful in circumstances where anonymous mappings combined with manual stores to memory would impose undesirable costs, either in terms of performance or RSS. Use cases are focused on heap allocators and include: - Pattern initialization for the heap. This is where malloc(3) gives you memory whose contents are filled with a non-zero pattern byte, in order to help detect and mitigate bugs involving use of uninitialized memory. Typically this is implemented by having the allocator memset the allocation with the pattern byte before returning it to the user, but for large allocations this can result in a significant increase in RSS, especially for allocations that are used sparsely. Even for dense allocations there is a needless impact to startup performance when it may be better to amortize it throughout the program. By creating allocations using a reference page filled with the pattern byte, we can avoid these costs. - Pre-tagged heap memory. Memory tagging [1] is an upcoming ARMv8.5 feature which allows for memory to be tagged in order to detect certain kinds of memory errors with low overhead. In order to set up an allocation to allow memory errors to be detected, the entire allocation needs to have the same tag. The issue here is similar to pattern initialization in the sense that large tagged allocations will be expensive if the tagging is done up front. The idea is that the allocator would create reference pages with each of the possible memory tags, and use those reference pages for the large allocations. This patch includes specific optimizations for these use cases in order to reduce memory traffic. If the reference page consists of a single repeating byte, the page is initialized using memset, and on arm64 if the reference page consists of a uniformly tagged zero page, the DC GZVA instruction is used to initialize the page. In order to measure the performance and RSS impact of reference pages, I used the following microbenchmark program, which is intended to compare an implementation of heap pattern initialization that uses memset to initialize the pages against an implementation that uses reference pages: #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <string.h> #include <sys/mman.h> #include <unistd.h> constexpr unsigned char pattern_byte = 0xaa; #define PAGE_SIZE 4096 _Alignas(PAGE_SIZE) static unsigned char pattern[PAGE_SIZE]; int main(int argc, char **argv) { if (argc < 3) return 1; bool use_refpage = argc > 3; size_t mmap_size = atoi(argv[1]); size_t touch_size = atoi(argv[2]); int refpage_fd; if (use_refpage) { memset(pattern, pattern_byte, PAGE_SIZE); refpage_fd = syscall(447, pattern, 0); } for (unsigned i = 0; i != 1000; ++i) { char *p; if (use_refpage) { p = (char *)mmap(0, mmap_size, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE, refpage_fd, 0); } else { p = (char *)mmap(0, mmap_size, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0); memset(p, pattern_byte, mmap_size); } for (unsigned j = 0; j < touch_size; j += PAGE_SIZE) p[j] = 0; munmap(p, mmap_size); } } On a DragonBoard 845c with the powersave governor, and taking the median of 10 runs for each measurement, I measured the following results for real time (s): touch_size/mmap_size memset refpages improvement (95% CI) 4096/4096000 3.962194 0.026726 98.8015% +/- 1.14684% 2048000/4096000 3.925309 1.48081 61.8271% +/- 1.11911% 4096000/4096000 3.986275 3.385003 15.1205% +/- 0.227235% And the following for max RSS (KiB): touch_size/mmap_size memset refpages improvement (95% CI) 4096/4096000 6656 3448 49.3815% +/- 1.30339% 2048000/4096000 6696 4580 31.7053% +/- 1.16411% 4096000/4096000 6716 6684 none So we see a large improvement for sparsely used allocations, and even a modest perf improvement for fully utilized allocations as a result of touching the pages one fewer time (with memset: once in the kernel and once in userspace; with refpages: just once in the kernel).

However, after having taken a detailed look at the interface, it does not seem suitable to be used in the context of a general purpose allocator. For example, UFFD_FEATURE_FORK support would be required in order to correctly support fork(2) in a process that uses the allocator (although POSIX does not guarantee support for allocating after fork, many allocators including Scudo support it, and nothing stops the forked process from page faulting pre-existing allocations after forking anyway), but UFFD_FEATURE_FORK has been restricted to root by commit 3c1c24d91ffd ("userfaultfd: require CAP_SYS_PTRACE for UFFD_FEATURE_EVENT_FORK"), making it unsuitable for use in an allocator. Furthermore, even if the interface issues are resolved, I suspect (but have not measured) that the cost of the multiple context switches between kernel and userspace would be too high to be used in an allocator anyway. arch/alpha/kernel/syscalls/syscall.tbl | 1 + arch/arm/tools/syscall.tbl | 1 + arch/arm64/include/asm/mman.h | 16 +++ arch/arm64/include/asm/mte.h | 10 +-
