Reliably recovering the correct PFN and cachemode using\nfollow_phys() from PTEs will not work in COW mappings.\n\nUsing follow_phys(), we might just get the address+protection of the anon\nfolio (which is very wrong), or fail on swap/nonswap entries, failing\nfollow_phys() and triggering a WARN_ON_ONCE() in untrack_pfn() and\ntrack_pfn_copy(), not properly calling free_pfn_range().\n\nIn free_pfn_range(), we either wouldn't call memtype_free() or would call\nit with the wrong range, possibly leaking memory.\n\nTo fix that, let's update follow_phys() to refuse returning anon folios,\nand fallback to using the stored PFN inside vma->vm_pgoff for COW mappings\nif we run into that.\n\nWe will now properly handle untrack_pfn() with COW mappings, where we\ndon't need the cachemode. We'll have to fail fork()->track_pfn_copy() if\nthe first page was replaced by an anon folio, though: we'd have to store\nthe cachemode in the VMA to make this work, likely growing the VMA size.\n\nFor now, lets keep it simple and let track_pfn_copy() just fail in that\ncase: it would have failed in the past with swap/nonswap entries already,\nand it would have done the wrong thing with anon folios.\n\nSimple reproducer to trigger the WARN_ON_ONCE() in untrack_pfn():\n\n<--- C reproducer --->\n #include \n #include \n #include \n #include \n\n int main(void)\n {\n struct io_uring_params p = {};\n int ring_fd;\n size_t size;\n char *map;\n\n ring_fd = io_uring_setup(1, &p);\n if (ring_fd < 0) {\n perror(\"io_uring_setup\");\n return 1;\n }\n size = p.sq_off.array + p.sq_entries * sizeof(unsigned);\n\n /* Map the submission queue ring MAP_PRIVATE */\n map = mmap(0, size, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE,\n ring_fd, IORING_OFF_SQ_RING);\n if (map == MAP_FAILED) {\n perror(\"mmap\");\n return 1;\n }\n\n /* We have at least one page.
