Currently system heap maps its buffers with VM_PFNMAP flag using
remap_pfn_range. This results in such buffers not being accounted
for in PSS calculations because vm treats this memory as having no
page structs. Without page structs there are no counters representing
how many processes are mapping a page and therefore PSS calculation
is impossible.
Historically, ION driver used to map its buffers as VM_PFNMAP areas
due to memory carveouts that did not have page structs [1]. That
is not the case anymore and it seems there was desire to move away
from remap_pfn_range [2].
Dmabuf system heap design inherits this ION behavior and maps its
pages using remap_pfn_range even though allocated pages are backed
by page structs.
Clear VM_IO and VM_PFNMAP flags when mapping memory allocated by the
system heap and replace remap_pfn_range with vm_insert_page, following
Laura's suggestion in [1]. This would allow correct PSS calculation
for dmabufs.

Agrh, please ignore VM_IO in the description. The patch does not touch
that flag. I'll fix that in the next revision.

Why do we clear this flag?  It shouldn't even be set here as far as I
can tell.

Thanks for the question, Christoph.
I tracked down that flag being set by drm_gem_mmap_obj() which DRM
drivers use to "Set up the VMA to prepare mapping of the GEM object"
(according to drm_gem_mmap_obj comments). I also see a pattern in
several DMR drivers to call drm_gem_mmap_obj()/drm_gem_mmap(), then
clear VM_PFNMAP and then map the VMA (for example here:
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/drivers/gpu/drm/rockchip/rockchip_drm_gem.c#L246).
I thought that dmabuf allocator (in this case the system heap) would
be the right place to set these flags because it controls how memory
is allocated before mapping. However it's quite possible that I'm
missing the real reason for VM_PFNMAP being set in drm_gem_mmap_obj()
before dma_buf_mmap() is called. I could not find the answer to that,
so I hope someone here can clarify that.

However, you're not setting but removing a flag under the caller.
It's different with appending more flags(e.g., removing condition
vs adding more conditions). If we should remove the flag, caller
didn't need to set it from the beginning. Hiding it under this API
continue to make wrong usecase in future.

Guess DRM had used carved out pure PFN memory long time ago and
changed to use dmabuf since somepoint.
Whatever there is a history, rather than removing the flag
under them, let's add WARN_ON(vma->vm_flags & VM_PFNMAP) so
we could clean up catching them and start discussion.

Folks, any objections to the approach above?
Christoph Hellwig Feb. 2, 2021, 7:03 a.m. UTC | #6
IMHO the

	BUG_ON(vma->vm_flags & VM_PFNMAP);

in vm_insert_page should just become a WARN_ON_ONCE with an error
return, and then we just need to gradually fix up the callers that
trigger it instead of coming up with workarounds like this.

For the existing vm_insert_page users this should be fine since
BUG_ON() guarantees that none of them sets VM_PFNMAP. However, for the
system_heap_mmap I have one concern. When vm_insert_page returns an
error due to VM_PFNMAP flag, the whole mmap operation should fail
(system_heap_mmap returning an error leading to dma_buf_mmap failure).
Could there be cases when a heap user (DRM driver for example) would
be expected to work with a heap which requires VM_PFNMAP and at the
same time with another heap which requires !VM_PFNMAP? IOW, this
introduces a dependency between the heap and its
user. The user would have to know expectations of the heap it uses and
can't work with another heap that has the opposite expectation. This
usecase is purely theoretical and maybe I should not worry about it
for now?

Even for them WARN_ON_ONCE plus an actual error return is a way
better assert that is much developer friendly.

If such a case ever arises we can look into it.
