Subject: mm/huge_memory: avoid PMD-size page cache if needed
Date: Mon, 15 Jul 2024 10:04:23 +1000

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.
