This is a similar idea to the fs_reclaim fake lockdep lock. It's
fairly easy to provoke a specific notifier to be run on a specific
range: Just prep it, and then munmap() it.

A bit harder, but still doable, is to provoke the mmu notifiers for
all the various callchains that might lead to them. But both at the
same time is really hard to reliable hit, especially when you want to
exercise paths like direct reclaim or compaction, where it's not
easy to control what exactly will be unmapped.

By introducing a lockdep map to tie them all together we allow lockdep
to see a lot more dependencies, without having to actually hit them
in a single challchain while testing.

Aside: Since I typed this to test i915 mmu notifiers I've only rolled
this out for the invaliate_range_start callback. If there's
interest, we should probably roll this out to all of them. But my
undestanding of core mm is seriously lacking, and I'm not clear on
whether we need a lockdep map for each callback, or whether some can
be shared.

v2: Use lock_map_acquire/release() like fs_reclaim, to avoid confusion
with this being a real mutex (Chris Wilson).

v3: Rebase on top of Glisse's arg rework.

I was thinking about doing something like this..

IMHO only range_end needs annotation, the other ops are either already
non-sleeping or only used by KVM.

BTW, I have found it strange that i915 only uses
invalidate_range_start. Not really sure how it is able to do
that. Would love to know the answer :)

I wonder what the trade off is having a global map vs a map in each
mmu_notifier_mm ?

Also range_end should have this too - it has all the same
constraints. I think it can share the map. So 'range_start_map' is
probably not the right name.

It may also make some sense to do a dummy acquire/release under the
mm_take_all_locks() to forcibly increase map coverage and reduce the
scenario complexity required to hit bugs.

And if we do decide on the reclaim thing in my other email then the
reclaim dependency can be reliably injected by doing:

 fs_reclaim_acquire();
 lock_map_acquire(&__mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start_map);
 lock_map_release(&__mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start_map);
 fs_reclaim_release();

If I understand lockdep properly..

This isnt' about sleeping, this is about locking loops. And the biggest
risk for that is from driver code, and at least hmm_mirror only has the
driver code callback on invalidate_range_start. Once thing I discovered
using this (and it would be really hard to spot, it's deeply neested) is
that i915 userptr.

Even if i915 userptr would use hmm_mirror (to fix the issue you mention
below), if we then switch the annotation to invalidate_range_end nothing
interesting would ever come from this. Well, the only thing it'd catch is
issues in hmm_mirror, but I think core mm review will catch that before it
reaches us :-)

I suspect it's broken :-/ Our userptr is ... not the best. Part of the
motivation here.

Less reports, specifically no reports involving multiple different mmu
notifiers to build the entire chain. But I'm assuming it's possible to
combine them in one mm (kvm+gpu+infiniband in one process sounds like
something someone could reasonably do), and it will help to make sure
everyone follows the same rules.

Ime fs_reclaim injects the mmu_notifier map here reliably as soon as
you've thrown out the first pagecache mmap on any process. That "make sure
we inject it quickly" is why the lockdep is _outside_ of the
mm_has_notifiers() check. So no further injection needed imo.

Sorry, that came out wrong, what I ment is that only range_end and
range_start really need annotation.

The other places are only used by KVM and are called in non-sleeping
contexts, so they already can't recurse back onto the popular sleeping
locks like mmap_sem or what not, can't do allocations, etc.  I don't
see alot of return in investing in them.

I was wondering if it is what we call in RDMA a 'registration cache'
ie you assume that userspace is well behaved while DMA is ongoing and
just use the notifer to invalidate cached dma mappings.

The hallmark of this pattern is that it holds the page pin the entire
time DMA is active, which is why it isn't a bug, it is just best
described as loosely coherent.

But, in RDMA the best-practice is to do this in userspace with
userfaultfd as it is very expensive to take a syscall on command
submission to have the kernel figure it out.

I suspect a lot of our automated testing, like syzkaller in restricted
kvms, probably does not reliably trigger a fs_reclaim, so I would very
much prefer to inject it 100% of the time directly if we are sure this
is a reclaim context because of the i_mmap_rwsem I mentioned before.
