[PATCH v5 5/8] mm: Device exclusive memory access

Alistair Popple apopple at nvidia.com
Tue Mar 9 12:15:02 UTC 2021


Some devices require exclusive write access to shared virtual
memory (SVM) ranges to perform atomic operations on that memory. This
requires CPU page tables to be updated to deny access whilst atomic
operations are occurring.

In order to do this introduce a new swap entry
type (SWP_DEVICE_EXCLUSIVE). When a SVM range needs to be marked for
exclusive access by a device all page table mappings for the particular
range are replaced with device exclusive swap entries. This causes any
CPU access to the page to result in a fault.

Faults are resovled by replacing the faulting entry with the original
mapping. This results in MMU notifiers being called which a driver uses
to update access permissions such as revoking atomic access. After
notifiers have been called the device will no longer have exclusive
access to the region.

---

v5:
* Renamed range->migrate_pgmap_owner to range->owner.
* Added MMU_NOTIFY_EXCLUSIVE to allow passing of a driver cookie which
  allows notifiers called as a result of make_device_exclusive_range() to
  be ignored.
* Added a check to try_to_protect_one() to detect if the pages originally
  returned from get_user_pages() have been unmapped or not.
* Removed check_device_exclusive_range() as it is no longer required with
  the other changes.
* Documentation update.

v4:
* Add function to check that mappings are still valid and exclusive.
* s/long/unsigned long/ in make_device_exclusive_entry().

+Exclusive access memory
+=======================
+
+Not all devices support atomic access to system memory. To support atomic
+operations to a shared virtual memory page such a device needs access to that
+page which is exclusive of any userspace access from the CPU. The
+``make_device_exclusive_range()`` function can be used to make a memory range
+inaccessible from userspace.
+
+This replaces all mappings for pages in the given range with special swap
+entries. Any attempt to access the swap entry results in a fault which is
+resovled by replacing the entry with the original mapping. A driver gets
+notified that the mapping has been changed by MMU notifiers, after which point
+it will no longer have exclusive access to the page. Exclusive access is
+guranteed to last until the driver drops the page lock and page reference, at
+which point any CPU faults on the page may proceed as described.
