Introduce do_huge_zero_wp_pmd() to handle wp-fault on a hugezeropage and
replace it with a PMD-mapped THP. Change the helpers introduced in the
previous patch to flush TLB entry corresponding to the hugezeropage,
and preserve PMD uffd-wp marker. In case of failure, fallback to
splitting the PMD.

I don't think you are using either of these outside of huge_memory.c, so not
sure you need to declare them here or make them non-static?

As pointed out by Kirill, you are right, I forgot to drop these from my previous
approach.

I don't really get this; entry is writable, so I wouldn't expect to also be
setting uffd-wp here? That combination is not allowed and is checked for in
page_table_check_pte_flags().

It looks like you expect to get here in the uffd-wp-async case, which used to
cause the pmd to be split to ptes. I'm guessing (but don't know for sure) that
would cause the uffd-wp bit to be set in each of the new ptes, then during
fallback to handling the wp fault on the pte, uffd would handle it?

I guess you are correct; I missed the WARN_ON() in page_table_check_pmd_flags(),
but I did see, if I read the uffd code correctly, that mfill_atomic() will just
return in case of pmd_trans_huge(*dst_pmd) while doing a uffd_copy to the destination
location. So preserving pmd_uffd_wp is useless in case a THP is mapped, but I did not
know that in fact it is supposed to be an invalid combination. So, I will drop it,
unless someone has some other objection.

Should this call be moved outside of here? It doesn't really feel like it
belongs. Could it be called before calling map_pmd_thp() for the site that has a
pgtable?

Every other place I checked, they are doing this: make the entry -> deposit pgtable ->
set_pmd_at(). I guess the general flow is to do the deposit based on the old pmd, before
setting the new one. Which implies: I should at least move this check before I call
pmdp_huge_clear_flush(). And, since vmf->pmd and creating the new entry has no relation,
I am inclined to do what you are saying.

Just checking: the PTE table was already allocated during the read fault, right?
So we don't have to allocate it here.

Correct, that happens in set_huge_zero_folio(). Thanks for checking.

I'll confess I don't understand all the mmu notifier rules.

I confess the same :)

But the doc at
Documentation/mm/mmu_notifier.rst implies that the notification must be done
while holding the PTL. Although that's not how wp_page_copy(). Are you confident
what you have done is correct?

Everywhere else, invalidate_range_end() is getting called after dropping the lock,
one reason is that it has a might_sleep(), and therefore we cannot call it while
holding a spinlock. I still don't know what exactly these calls mean...but I think
what I have done is correct.


Thanks,
Ryan
