9b4d5c01eb selftests: make use of GUP_TEST_FILE macro
Commit 17de1e559c ("selftests: clarify common error when running
gup_test") had most of its hunks dropped due to a conflict with another
patch accepted into Linux around the same time that implemented the same
behavior as a subset of other changes.

However, the remaining hunk defines the GUP_TEST_FILE macro without
making use of it. This patch makes use of the macro in the two relevant
places.

Furthermore, the above mentioned commit's log message erroneously describes
the changes that were dropped from the patch.

This patch corrects the record.

17de1e559c selftests: clarify common error when running gup_test
The gup_test binary will fail showing only the output of perror("open") in
the case that /sys/kernel/debug/gup_test is not found. This will almost
always be due to CONFIG_GUP_TEST not being set, which enables
compilation of a kernel that provides this file.

Add a short error message to clarify this failure and point the user to
the solution.

6f6a841fb7 selftest/vm: add helpers to detect PAGE_SIZE and PAGE_SHIFT
PAGE_SIZE is not 4096 in many configurations, particularly ppc64 uses 64K
pages in majority of cases.

Add helpers to detect PAGE_SIZE and PAGE_SHIFT dynamically.

Without this tests are broken w.r.t reading /proc/self/pagemap

    if (pread(pagemap_fd, ent, sizeof(ent),
              (uintptr_t)ptr >> (PAGE_SHIFT - 3)) != sizeof(ent))

f39bd85345 mm/gup_benchmark: support threading
Patch series "mm/gup: Fix pin page write cache bouncing on has_pinned", v2.

This series contains 3 patches, the 1st one enables threading for
gup_benchmark in the kselftest.  The latter two patches are collected from
Andrea's local branch which can fix write cache bouncing issue with
pinning fast-gup.

To be explicit on the latter two patches:

  - the 2nd patch fixes the perf degrade when introducing has_pinned, then

  - the last patch tries to remove the has_pinned with a bit in mm->flags

For patch 3: originally I think we had a plan to reuse has_pinned into a
counter very soon, however that's not happening at least until today, so
maybe it proves that we can remove it until we really want such a counter
for whatever reason.  As the commit message stated, it saves 4 bytes for
each mm without observable regressions.

Regarding testing: we can reference to the commit message of patch 2 for
some detailed testing with will-is-scale.  Meanwhile I did patch 1 just
because then we can even easily verify the patchset using the existing
kselftest facilities or even regress test it in the future with the repo
if we want.

Below numbers are extra verification tests that I did besides commit
message of patch 2 using the new gup_benchmark and 256 cpus.  Below test
is done on 40 cpus host with Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2630 v4 @ 2.20GHz,
and I can get similar result (of course the write cache bouncing get
severe with even more cores).

After patch 1 applied (only test patch, so using old kernel):

e44605a8b1 selftests/vm: gup_test: test faulting in kernel, and verify pinnable pages
When pages are pinned they can be faulted in userland and migrated, and
they can be faulted right in kernel without migration.

In either case, the pinned pages must end-up being pinnable (not
movable).

Add a new test to gup_test, to help verify that the gup/pup
(get_user_pages() / pin_user_pages()) behavior with respect to pinnable
and movable pages is reasonable and correct.  Specifically, provide a
way to:

1) Verify that only "pinnable" pages are pinned.  This is checked
   automatically for you.

2) Verify that gup/pup performance is reasonable.  This requires
   comparing benchmarks between doing gup/pup on pages that have been
   pre-faulted in from user space, vs.  doing gup/pup on pages that are
   not faulted in until gup/pup time (via FOLL_TOUCH).  This decision is
   controlled with the new -z command line option.

79dbf135e2 selftests/vm: gup_test: fix test flag
In gup_test both gup_flags and test_flags use the same flags field.
This is broken.

Farther, in the actual gup_test.c all the passed gup_flags are erased
and unconditionally replaced with FOLL_WRITE.

Which means that test_flags are ignored, and code like this always
performs pin dump test:

155  			if (gup->flags & GUP_TEST_FLAG_DUMP_PAGES_USE_PIN)
156  				nr = pin_user_pages(addr, nr, gup->flags,
157  						    pages + i, NULL);
158  			else
159  				nr = get_user_pages(addr, nr, gup->flags,
160  						    pages + i, NULL);
161  			break;

Add a new test_flags field, to allow raw gup_flags to work.  Add a new
subcommand for DUMP_USER_PAGES_TEST to specify that pin test should be
performed.

Remove unconditional overwriting of gup_flags via FOLL_WRITE.  But,
preserve the previous behaviour where FOLL_WRITE was the default flag,
and add a new option "-W" to unset FOLL_WRITE.

Rename flags with gup_flags.

With the fix, dump works like this:

Refcount shows the difference between pin vs no-pin case.
Also change type of nr from int to long, as it counts number of pages.

f4f9bda418 selftests/vm: gup_test: introduce the dump_pages() sub-test
For quite a while, I was doing a quick hack to gup_test.c (previously,
gup_benchmark.c) whenever I wanted to try out my changes to dump_page().
This makes that hack unnecessary, and instead allows anyone to easily get
the same coverage from a user space program.  That saves a lot of time
because you don't have to change the kernel, in order to test different
pages and options.

The new sub-test takes advantage of the existing gup_test infrastructure,
which already provides a simple user space program, some allocated user
space pages, an ioctl call, pinning of those pages (via either
get_user_pages or pin_user_pages) and a corresponding kernel-side test
invocation.  There's not much more required, mainly just a couple of
inputs from the user.

In fact, the new test re-uses the existing command line options in order
to get various helpful combinations (THP or normal, _fast or slow gup, gup
vs.  pup, and more).

New command line options are: which pages to dump, and what type of
"get/pin" to use.

In order to figure out which pages to dump, the logic is:

* If the user doesn't specify anything, the page 0 (the first page in
  the address range that the program sets up for testing) is dumped.

* Or, the user can type up to 8 page indices anywhere on the command
  line.  If you type more than 8, then it uses the first 8 and ignores the
  remaining items.

For example:

    ./gup_test -ct -F 1 0 19 0x1000

Meaning:
    -c:          dump pages sub-test
    -t:          use THP pages
    -F 1:        use pin_user_pages() instead of get_user_pages()
    0 19 0x1000: dump pages 0, 19, and 4096

a9bed1e1c2 selftests/vm: only some gup_test items are really benchmarks
Therefore, some minor cleanup and improvements are in order:

1. Rename the other items appropriately.

2. Stop reporting timing information on the non-benchmark items. It's
   still being recorded and is available, but there's no point in
   cluttering up the report with data that no one reasonably needs to
   check.

3. Don't do iterations, for non-benchmark items.

4. Print out a shorter, more appropriate report for the non-benchmark
   tests.

5. Add the command that was run, to the report. This really helps, as
   there are quite a lot of options now.

6. Use a larger integer type for cmd, now that it's being compared
   Otherwise it doesn't work, because in this case cmd is about 3 billion,
   which is the perfect size for problems with signed vs unsigned int.

f545605cc0 selftests/vm: minor cleanup: Makefile and gup_test.c
A few cleanups that don't deserve separate patches, but that also should
not clutter up other functional changes:

1. Remove an unnecessary #include <prctl.h>

2. Restore the sorted order of TEST_GEN_FILES.

3. Add -lpthread to the common LDLIBS, as it is harmless and several
   tests use it. This gets rid of one special rule already.

b9dcfdff8b selftests/vm: use a common gup_test.h
Avoid the need to copy-paste the gup_test ioctl commands and the struct
gup_test definition, between the kernel and the user space application, by
providing a new header file for these.  This allows easier and safer
adding of new ioctl calls, as well as reducing the overall line count.

Details: The header file has to be able to compile independently, because
of the arguably unfortunate way that the Makefile is written: the Makefile
tries to build all of its prerequisites, when really it should be only
building the .c files, and leaving the other prerequisites (LOCAL_HDRS) as
pure dependencies.

That Makefile limitation is probably not worth fixing, but it explains why
one of the includes had to be moved into the new header file.

Also: simplify the ioctl struct (struct gup_test), by deleting the unused
__expansion[10] field.  This sort of thing is what you might see in a
stable ABI, but this low-level, kernel-developer-oriented selftests/vm
system is very much not subject to ABI stability.  So "expansion" and
"reserved" fields are unnecessary here.

9c84f22926 mm/gup_benchmark: rename to mm/gup_test
Patch series "selftests/vm: gup_test, hmm-tests, assorted improvements", v3.

Summary: This series provides two main things, and a number of smaller
supporting goodies.  The two main points are:

1) Add a new sub-test to gup_test, which in turn is a renamed version
   of gup_benchmark.  This sub-test allows nicer testing of dump_pages(),
   at least on user-space pages.

   For quite a while, I was doing a quick hack to gup_test.c whenever I
   wanted to try out changes to dump_page().  Then Matthew Wilcox asked me
   what I meant when I said "I used my dump_page() unit test", and I
   realized that it might be nice to check in a polished up version of
   that.

   Details about how it works and how to use it are in the commit
   description for patch #6 ("selftests/vm: gup_test: introduce the
   dump_pages() sub-test").

2) Fixes a limitation of hmm-tests: these tests are incredibly useful,
   but only if people actually build and run them.  And it turns out that
   libhugetlbfs is a little too effective at throwing a wrench in the
   works, there.  So I've added a little configuration check that removes
   just two of the 21 hmm-tests, if libhugetlbfs is not available.

   Further details in the commit description of patch #8
   ("selftests/vm: hmm-tests: remove the libhugetlbfs dependency").

Other smaller things that this series does:

a) Remove code duplication by creating gup_test.h.

b) Clear up the sub-test organization, and their invocation within
   run_vmtests.sh.

c) Other minor assorted improvements.

This patch (of 9):

Rename nearly every "gup_benchmark" reference and file name to "gup_test".
The one exception is for the actual gup benchmark test itself.

The current code already does a *little* bit more than benchmarking, and
definitely covers more than get_user_pages_fast().  More importantly,
however, subsequent patches are about to add some functionality that is
non-benchmark related.

Closely related changes:

* Kconfig: in addition to renaming the options from GUP_BENCHMARK to
  GUP_TEST, update the help text to reflect that it's no longer a
  benchmark-only test.
