[PATCH v3 0/3] mm: Fix bug affecting swapping in MTE tagged pages

[Peter Collingbourne]

This patch series reworks the logic that handles swapping in page
metadata to fix a reported bug [1] where metadata can sometimes not
be swapped in correctly after commit c145e0b47c77 ("mm: streamline COW
logic in do_swap_page()").

- Patch 1 fixes the bug itself, but still requires architectures
  to restore metadata in both arch_swap_restore() and set_pte_at().

- Patch 2 makes it so that architectures only need to restore metadata
  in arch_swap_restore().

- Patch 3 changes arm64 to remove support for restoring metadata
  in set_pte_at().

v3:
- Added patch to call arch_swap_restore() from unuse_pte()
- Rebased onto arm64/for-next/fixes

v2:
- Call arch_swap_restore() directly instead of via arch_do_swap_page()

[PATCH v3 1/3] mm: Call arch_swap_restore() from do_swap_page()

[Peter Collingbourne]

Commit c145e0b47c77 ("mm: streamline COW logic in do_swap_page()") moved
the call to swap_free() before the call to set_pte_at(), which meant that
the MTE tags could end up being freed before set_pte_at() had a chance
to restore them. Fix it by adding a call to the arch_swap_restore() hook
before the call to swap_free().

Should you add

It looks good for me for swap code related part.  Feel free to add

For 1/3, I think I rather only explained the problem in the first patch 
and didn't really suggest this.

[PATCH v3 2/3] mm: Call arch_swap_restore() from unuse_pte()

[Peter Collingbourne]

We would like to move away from requiring architectures to restore
metadata from swap in the set_pte_at() implementation, as this is not only
error-prone but adds complexity to the arch-specific code. This requires
us to call arch_swap_restore() before calling swap_free() whenever pages
are restored from swap. We are currently doing so everywhere except in
unuse_pte(); do so there as well.

[PATCH v3 3/3] arm64: mte: Simplify swap tag restoration logic

[Peter Collingbourne]

As a result of the previous two patches, there are no circumstances
in which a swapped-in page is installed in a page table without first
having arch_swap_restore() called on it. Therefore, we no longer need
the logic in set_pte_at() that restores the tags, so remove it.

Because we can now rely on the page being locked, we no longer need to
handle the case where a page is having its tags restored by multiple tasks
concurrently, so we can slightly simplify the logic in mte_restore_tags().

This is much neater, thanks for figuring out a better way of
implementing it. The set_pte_at() thing always felt like a hack, but it
was always there for the non-swap case and I obviously never figured out
a better solution.

Can we have a situation where two processes share the same swap pte
(CoW) and they both enter the do_swap_page() or the unuse_pte() paths
triggering this warning?

Other than that, the looks nice, it simplifies the logic and probably
saves a few cycles as well on the set_pte_at() path.

Having examined the code more closely, I realized that this is
possible with two do_swap_page() calls on CoW shared pages (or
do_swap_page() followed by unuse_pte()), because the swapcache page
will be shared between the tasks and so they will both call
arch_swap_restore() on the same page. I was able to provoke the
warning with the following program:

#include <sys/mman.h>
#include <unistd.h>

int main() {
  char *p = mmap(0, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE|PROT_MTE,
MAP_ANON|MAP_PRIVATE, -1, 0);
  p[0] = 1;
  madvise(p, 4096, MADV_PAGEOUT);
  fork();
  return p[0];
}

I will send a v4 with this hunk removed.
