27 hoursmm/vma: don't remove VMA from rmap if pgoff unchangedLorenzo Stoakes (ARM)
When updating a VMA, vma_prepare() unconditionally removes it from its rmap interval trees under the rmap lock, and vma_complete() reinserts it before releasing the lock. This is wholly unnecessary if its page offset (file rmap) or anonymous page offset (anon rmap) is unchanged. So, track whether they will change in the newly introduced vp->file_pgoff_unchanged and vp->anon_pgoff_unchanged fields, and use them to determine whether to remove the VMA or not. The rmap lock keeps things safe as no rmap walks can concurrently occur during the operation. Additionally, some architectures (arm, parisc, nios2, csky) have dcache flush rmap walkers which take only flush_dcache_mmap_lock(), which is likewise held across the operation. If the VMA remains in the tree, it's necessary to keep the augmented rb_subtree_last field updated to reflect its changed range. Provide mapping_rmap_tree_[pre, post]_update() and anon_rmap_tree_[pre, post]_update_vma() (replacing the existing logic in the anonymous case) to handle both the changed and unchanged cases. For the anon rmap case, with CONFIG_DEBUG_VM_RB set, avc->cached_vma_last is also updated when propagating in place. When performing a VMA shrink or a split where the VMA is the lower one, the page offset cannot change, so set the flags unconditionally in these cases. When merging VMAs the page offset is unchanged only in some cases, so update init_multi_vma_prep() to set the flags only if the page offsets remain the same. Finally, while we're here, also update expand_upwards() similarly. These changes ultimately result in less rmap lock contention. Pan Deng reported results using the UnixBench/excel benchmark on a 2-socket 192 core, 384 thread x86-64 system for v7.3-rc4 with/without the patch applied: Execl Throughput, index score: avg %stdev min max v7.3-rc4 3511.5 0.44% 3494.5 3543.4 + patch 4069.0 0.48% 4047.4 4109.5 (+15.9%) Average wait on file rmap lock in ms, 5 runs per kernel: avg %stdev min max v7.3-rc4 9.470 2.91% 9.070 9.820 + patch 8.420 3.34% 8.100 8.770 (-11.1%) Profiling data obtained during the operation highlighted the file rmap lock as the primary source of contention.

27 hoursmm: implement and use vma_has_anon_rmap(), silence KCSANLorenzo Stoakes (ARM)
Provide a function to abstract the common task of checking whether a VMA has an anonymous reverse mapping associated with it. If the VMA is attached, a VMA or mmap lock must be held when calling this function. For an attached, anonymous, VMA: Transition | VMA/mmap Lock state -----------------------------|------------------------------------------- No anon rmap to anon rmap | Write lock/read lock + mm->page_table_lock Anon rmap to no anon rmap | Write lock vma_has_anon_rmap() never provides a false positive (the lock precludes it), but if only a read lock is held, a negative result must be re-checked with mm->page_table_lock held. A VMA obtains an anonymous reverse mapping when first faulted or forked and it is removed when it is freed. Detached VMAs cannot be concurrently manipulated as they are removed from the maple tree so require no guarantees. Use data_race() to silence KCSAN about non-existent data races between concurrent vma->anon_vma read/write on optimistic fault tests. Update the core VMA merge/split, rmap, mremap, KSM, fork, khugepaged and fault preparation callers which test vma->anon_vma directly to use vma_has_anon_rmap() instead. Finally, update comments that reference anon_vma to reference the anon rmap instead. Since the lockless read in reusable_anon_vma() is doing more than checking whether the VMA has anon rmap - it is returning the anon_vma to be used on fault - do not alter it. There is one odd one out - file_backed_vma_is_retractable() - which holds neither a VMA nor mmap lock and is stabilised by the file rmap lock only, so simply add a comment to explain why it's necessary.

27 hoursmm: consistently validate VMA state after mmap[_prepare] hooksLorenzo Stoakes (ARM)
When the f_op->mmap_prepare or deprecated f_op->mmap hooks are invoked, the driver might have done something crazy that is not permitted by the kernel. Currently we check for three such cases in __mmap_new_file_vma(), but only if the legacy f_op->mmap hook is used: * Did sparc ADI result in invalid flags? * Did the driver alter vma->vm_start? * Did the driver make a file-backed mapping on a read-only file writable? Generalise these checks for both mmap_prepare and mmap and apply to all invocations of mmap_file(), the f_op->mmap and f_op->mmap_prepare handling in the core VMA code and the mmap_prepare compatibility layer. Also extend the vm_start check to vm_end also - drivers must not change the VMA range at all. We also WARN_ON_ONCE() on these conditions as they are things that should simply not occur in the kernel and it's important to call it out when it does. We invoke mmap_prepare_validate() after mmap_action_prepare(), as mmap actions often manipulate state in the descriptor thus providing the final state the VMA will be derived from. Also call mmap_validate_vma_flags() in insert_vm_struct() to ensure that special regions which are inserted (such as a VDSO or VVAR) also satisfy the sanity checks. This way every VMA established through an mmap hook, whether via mmap() or the compatibility layer, or inserted via insert_vm_struct(), has been validated. brk() VMAs never pass through a driver hook and so need no such check. While we're here, also fixup a couple disjoint blocks of #ifdef CONFIG_MMU. Finally, update the VMA userland tests to reflect the change.

2026-08-04mm/rmap: rename vma_interval_tree_*() to mapping_rmap_tree_*()Lorenzo Stoakes
The family of vma_interval_tree_() functions manipulate the address_space (which, of course, is generally referred to as 'mapping') reverse mapping, but are named the 'VMA' interval tree. VMAs may be mapped by an anon_vma, an address_space, or both. Therefore calling the mapping interval tree a 'VMA' interval tree is rather confusing. This is also inconsistent with the anon_vma_interval_tree_*() functions which explicitly reference the rmap object to which they pertain. Rename the vma_interval_tree_*() functions to mapping_rmap_tree_*() to correct this. We will rename the anon rmap functions similarly in a subsequent patch. No functional change intended.

2026-08-04mm/rmap: parameterise vma_interval_tree_*() by address_spaceLorenzo Stoakes
The file-backed mapping interval tree functions vma_interval_tree_*() accept a raw rb_root_cached pointer to determine the tree in which they are operating. However, in each case, this is always associated with an address_space data type. So simply pass a pointer to that instead to simplify the code, and more clearly differentiate between these operations and those concerning anonymous mappings. While we're here, make the generated interval tree functions static as they do not need to be used externally (any previously existing external users have now been removed). We also rename VMA parameters from 'node' to 'vma' as calling this a node is simply confusing, update the input index types to pgoff_t since they reference page offsets and rename the parameters to pgoff_start and pgoff_last.

2026-04-27mm/vma: do not try to unmap a VMA if mmap_prepare() invoked from mmap()Lorenzo Stoakes
The mmap_prepare hook functionality includes the ability to invoke mmap_prepare() from the mmap() hook of existing 'stacked' drivers, that is ones which are capable of calling the mmap hooks of other drivers/file systems (e.g. overlayfs, shm). As part of the mmap_prepare action functionality, we deal with errors by unmapping the VMA should one arise. This works in the usual mmap_prepare case, as we invoke this action at the last moment, when the VMA is established in the maple tree. However, the mmap() hook passes a not-fully-established VMA pointer to the caller (which is the motivation behind the mmap_prepare() work), which is detached. So attempting to unmap a VMA in this state will be problematic, with the most obvious symptom being a warning in vma_mark_detached(), because the VMA is already detached. It's also unncessary - the mmap() handler will clean up the VMA on error. So to fix this issue, this patch propagates whether or not an mmap action is being completed via the compatibility layer or directly. If the former, then we do not attempt VMA cleanup, if the latter, then we do. This patch also updates the userland VMA tests to reflect the change.

2026-04-05mm: various small mmap_prepare cleanupsLorenzo Stoakes (Oracle)
Patch series "mm: expand mmap_prepare functionality and usage", v4. This series expands the mmap_prepare functionality, which is intended to replace the deprecated f_op->mmap hook which has been the source of bugs and security issues for some time. This series starts with some cleanup of existing mmap_prepare logic, then adds documentation for the mmap_prepare call to make it easier for filesystem and driver writers to understand how it works. It then importantly adds a vm_ops->mapped hook, a key feature that was missing from mmap_prepare previously - this is invoked when a driver which specifies mmap_prepare has successfully been mapped but not merged with another VMA. mmap_prepare is invoked prior to a merge being attempted, so you cannot manipulate state such as reference counts as if it were a new mapping. The vm_ops->mapped hook allows a driver to perform tasks required at this stage, and provides symmetry against subsequent vm_ops->open,close calls. The series uses this to correct the afs implementation which wrongly manipulated reference count at mmap_prepare time. It then adds an mmap_prepare equivalent of vm_iomap_memory() - mmap_action_simple_ioremap(), then uses this to update a number of drivers. It then splits out the mmap_prepare compatibility layer (which allows for invocation of mmap_prepare hooks in an mmap() hook) in such a way as to allow for more incremental implementation of mmap_prepare hooks. It then uses this to extend mmap_prepare usage in drivers. Finally it adds an mmap_prepare equivalent of vm_map_pages(), which lays the foundation for future work which will extend mmap_prepare to DMA coherent mappings. This patch (of 21): Rather than passing arbitrary fields, pass a vm_area_desc pointer to mmap prepare functions to mmap prepare, and an action and vma pointer to mmap complete in order to put all the action-specific logic in the function actually doing the work. Additionally, allow mmap prepare functions to return an error so we can error out as soon as possible if there is something logically incorrect in the input. Update remap_pfn_range_prepare() to properly check the input range for the CoW case. Also remove io_remap_pfn_range_complete(), as we can simply set up the fields correctly in io_remap_pfn_range_prepare() and use remap_pfn_range_complete() for this. While we're here, make remap_pfn_range_prepare_vma() a little neater, and pass mmap_action directly to call_action_complete(). Then, update compat_vma_mmap() to perform its logic directly, as __compat_vma_map() is not used by anything so we don't need to export it. Also update compat_vma_mmap() to use vfs_mmap_prepare() rather than calling the mmap_prepare op directly. Finally, update the VMA userland tests to reflect the changes.

2026-04-05mm/vma: convert as much as we can in mm/vma.c to vma_flags_tLorenzo Stoakes (Oracle)
Now we have established a good foundation for vm_flags_t to vma_flags_t changes, update mm/vma.c to utilise vma_flags_t wherever possible. We are able to convert VM_STARTGAP_FLAGS entirely as this is only used in mm/vma.c, and to account for the fact we can't use VM_NONE to make life easier, place the definition of this within existing #ifdef's to be cleaner. Generally the remaining changes are mechanical. Also update the VMA tests to reflect the changes.

2026-04-05mm: convert do_brk_flags() to use vma_flags_tLorenzo Stoakes (Oracle)
In order to be able to do this, we need to change VM_DATA_DEFAULT_FLAGS and friends and update the architecture-specific definitions also. We then have to update some KSM logic to handle VMA flags, and introduce VMA_STACK_FLAGS to define the vma_flags_t equivalent of VM_STACK_FLAGS. We also introduce two helper functions for use during the time we are converting legacy flags to vma_flags_t values - vma_flags_to_legacy() and legacy_to_vma_flags(). This enables us to iteratively make changes to break these changes up into separate parts. We use these explicitly here to keep VM_STACK_FLAGS around for certain users which need to maintain the legacy vm_flags_t values for the time being. We are no longer able to rely on the simple VM_xxx being set to zero if the feature is not enabled, so in the case of VM_DROPPABLE we introduce VMA_DROPPABLE as the vma_flags_t equivalent, which is set to EMPTY_VMA_FLAGS if the droppable flag is not available. While we're here, we make the description of do_brk_flags() into a kdoc comment, as it almost was already. We use vma_flags_to_legacy() to not need to update the vm_get_page_prot() logic as this time. Note that in create_init_stack_vma() we have to replace the BUILD_BUG_ON() with a VM_WARN_ON_ONCE() as the tested values are no longer build time available. We also update mprotect_fixup() to use VMA flags where possible, though we have to live with a little duplication between vm_flags_t and vma_flags_t values for the time being until further conversions are made. While we're here, update VM_SPECIAL to be defined in terms of VMA_SPECIAL_FLAGS now we have vma_flags_to_legacy(). Finally, we update the VMA tests to reflect these changes.

2026-04-05mm: prevent droppable mappings from being lockedAnthony Yznaga
Droppable mappings must not be lockable. There is a check for VMAs with VM_DROPPABLE set in mlock_fixup() along with checks for other types of unlockable VMAs which ensures this when calling mlock()/mlock2(). For mlockall(MCL_FUTURE), the check for unlockable VMAs is different. In apply_mlockall_flags(), if the flags parameter has MCL_FUTURE set, the current task's mm's default VMA flag field mm->def_flags has VM_LOCKED applied to it. VM_LOCKONFAULT is also applied if MCL_ONFAULT is also set. When these flags are set as default in this manner they are cleared in __mmap_complete() for new mappings that do not support mlock. A check for VM_DROPPABLE in __mmap_complete() is missing resulting in droppable mappings created with VM_LOCKED set. To fix this and reduce that chance of similar bugs in the future, introduce and use vma_supports_mlock().

2026-02-12tools/testing/vma: separate out vma_internal.h into logical headersLorenzo Stoakes
The vma_internal.h file is becoming entirely unmanageable. It combines duplicated kernel implementation logic that needs to be kept in-sync with the kernel, stubbed out declarations that we simply ignore for testing purposes and custom logic added to aid testing. If we separate each of the three things into separate headers it makes things far more manageable, so do so: * include/stubs.h contains the stubbed declarations, * include/dup.h contains the duplicated kernel declarations, and * include/custom.h contains declarations customised for testing.
