Pull non-MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- "panic: sys_info: Refactor and fix a potential issue" (Andy Shevchenko)
fixes a build issue and does some cleanup in ib/sys_info.c
- "Implement mul_u64_u64_div_u64_roundup()" (David Laight)
enhances the 64-bit math code on behalf of a PWM driver and beefs up
the test module for these library functions
- "scripts/gdb/symbols: make BPF debug info available to GDB" (Ilya Leoshkevich)
makes BPF symbol names, sizes, and line numbers available to the GDB
debugger
- "Enable hung_task and lockup cases to dump system info on demand" (Feng Tang)
adds a sysctl which can be used to cause additional info dumping when
the hung-task and lockup detectors fire
- "lib/base64: add generic encoder/decoder, migrate users" (Kuan-Wei Chiu)
adds a general base64 encoder/decoder to lib/ and migrates several
users away from their private implementations
- "rbree: inline rb_first() and rb_last()" (Eric Dumazet)
makes TCP a little faster
- "liveupdate: Rework KHO for in-kernel users" (Pasha Tatashin)
reworks the KEXEC Handover interfaces in preparation for Live Update
Orchestrator (LUO), and possibly for other future clients
- "kho: simplify state machine and enable dynamic updates" (Pasha Tatashin)
increases the flexibility of KEXEC Handover. Also preparation for LUO
- "Live Update Orchestrator" (Pasha Tatashin)
is a major new feature targeted at cloud environments. Quoting the
cover letter:
This series introduces the Live Update Orchestrator, a kernel
subsystem designed to facilitate live kernel updates using a
kexec-based reboot. This capability is critical for cloud
environments, allowing hypervisors to be updated with minimal
downtime for running virtual machines. LUO achieves this by
preserving the state of selected resources, such as memory,
devices and their dependencies, across the kernel transition.
As a key feature, this series includes support for preserving
memfd file descriptors, which allows critical in-memory data, such
as guest RAM or any other large memory region, to be maintained in
RAM across the kexec reboot.
Mike Rappaport merits a mention here, for his extensive review and
testing work.
- "kexec: reorganize kexec and kdump sysfs" (Sourabh Jain)
moves the kexec and kdump sysfs entries from /sys/kernel/ to
/sys/kernel/kexec/ and adds back-compatibility symlinks which can
hopefully be removed one day
- "kho: fixes for vmalloc restoration" (Mike Rapoport)
fixes a BUG which was being hit during KHO restoration of vmalloc()
regions

Patch series "mm: Add soft-dirty and uffd-wp support for RISC-V", v15.
This patchset adds support for Svrsw60t59b [1] extension which is ratified
now, also add soft dirty and userfaultfd write protect tracking for
RISC-V.
The patches 1 and 2 add macros to allow architectures to define their own
checks if the soft-dirty / uffd_wp PTE bits are available, in other words
for RISC-V, the Svrsw60t59b extension is supported on which device the
kernel is running. Also patch1-2 are removing "ifdef
CONFIG_MEM_SOFT_DIRTY" "ifdef CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_USERFAULTFD_WP" and "ifdef
CONFIG_PTE_MARKER_UFFD_WP" in favor of checks which if not overridden by
the architecture, no change in behavior is expected.
This patchset has been tested with kselftest mm suite in which soft-dirty,
madv_populate, test_unmerge_uffd_wp, and uffd-unit-tests run and pass, and
no regressions are observed in any of the other tests.
This patch (of 6):
Some platforms can customize the PTE PMD entry soft-dirty bit making it
unavailable even if the architecture provides the resource.
Add an API which architectures can define their specific implementations
to detect if soft-dirty bit is available on which device the kernel is
running.
This patch is removing "ifdef CONFIG_MEM_SOFT_DIRTY" in favor of
pgtable_supports_soft_dirty() checks that defaults to
IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_MEM_SOFT_DIRTY), if not overridden by the architecture,
no change in behavior is expected.
We make sure to never set VM_SOFTDIRTY if !pgtable_supports_soft_dirty(),
so we will never run into VM_SOFTDIRTY checks.

There are straggler invocations of pte_to_swp_entry() lying around,
replace all of these with the software leaf entry equivalent -
softleaf_from_pte().
With those removed, eliminate pte_to_swp_entry() altogether.
No functional change intended.

In cases where we can simply utilise the fact that softleaf_from_pte()
treats present entries as if they were none entries and thus eliminate
spurious uses of is_swap_pte(), do so.
No functional change intended.

There's an established convention in the kernel that we treat PTEs as
containing swap entries (and the unfortunately named non-swap swap
entries) should they be neither empty (i.e. pte_none() evaluating true)
nor present (i.e. pte_present() evaluating true).
However, there is some inconsistency in how this is applied, as we also
have the is_swap_pte() helper which explicitly performs this check:
/* check whether a pte points to a swap entry */
static inline int is_swap_pte(pte_t pte)
{
return !pte_none(pte) && !pte_present(pte);
}
As this represents a predicate, and it's logical to assume that in order
to establish that a PTE entry can correctly be manipulated as a
swap/non-swap entry, this predicate seems as if it must first be checked.
But we instead, we far more often utilise the established convention of
checking pte_none() / pte_present() before operating on entries as if they
were swap/non-swap.
This patch works towards correcting this inconsistency by removing all
uses of is_swap_pte() where we are already in a position where we perform
pte_none()/pte_present() checks anyway or otherwise it is clearly logical
to do so.
We also take advantage of the fact that pte_swp_uffd_wp() is only set on
swap entries.
Additionally, update comments referencing to is_swap_pte() and
non_swap_entry().
No functional change intended.

We only need to keep the page table stable so we can perform this
operation under the VMA lock. PTE installation is stabilised via the PTE
lock.
One caveat is that, if we prepare vma->anon_vma we must hold the mmap read
lock. We can account for this by adapting the VMA locking logic to
explicitly check for this case and prevent a VMA lock from being acquired
should it be the case.
This check is safe, as while we might be raced on anon_vma installation,
this would simply make the check conservative, there's no way for us to
see an anon_vma and then for it to be cleared, as doing so requires the
mmap/VMA write lock.
We abstract the VMA lock validity logic to is_vma_lock_sufficient() for
this purpose, and add prepares_anon_vma() to abstract the anon_vma logic.
In order to do this we need to have a way of installing page tables
explicitly for an identified VMA, so we export walk_page_range_vma() in an
unsafe variant - walk_page_range_vma_unsafe() and use this should the VMA
read lock be taken.
We additionally update the comments in madvise_guard_install() to more
accurately reflect the cases in which the logic may be reattempted,
specifically THP huge pages being present.

Patch series "mm: perform guard region install/remove under VMA lock", v2.
There is no reason why can't perform guard region operations under the VMA
lock, as long we take proper precautions to ensure that we do so in a safe
manner.
This is fine, as VMA lock acquisition is always best-effort, so if we are
unable to do so, we can simply fall back to using the mmap read lock.
Doing so will reduce mmap lock contention for callers performing guard
region operations and help establish a precedent of trying to use the VMA
lock where possible.
As part of this change we perform a trivial rename of page walk functions
which bypass safety checks (i.e. whether or not mm_walk_ops->install_pte
is specified) in order that we can keep naming consistent with the mm
walk.
This is because we need to expose a VMA-specific walk that still allows us
to install PTE entries.
This patch (of 2):
Make it clear we're referencing an unsafe variant of this function
explicitly.
This is laying the foundation for exposing more such functions and
maintaining a consistent naming scheme.
As a part of this change, rename check_ops_valid() to check_ops_safe() for
consistency.

The page faults may be spurious because of the racy access to the page
table. For example, a non-populated virtual page is accessed on 2
CPUs simultaneously, thus the page faults are triggered on both CPUs.
However, it's possible that one CPU (say CPU A) cannot find the reason
for the page fault if the other CPU (say CPU B) has changed the page
table before the PTE is checked on CPU A. Most of the time, the
spurious page faults can be ignored safely. However, if the page
fault is for the write access, it's possible that a stale read-only
TLB entry exists in the local CPU and needs to be flushed on some
architectures. This is called the spurious page fault fixing.
In the current kernel, there is spurious fault fixing support for pte,
but not for huge pmd because no architectures need it. But in the
next patch in the series, we will change the write protection fault
handling logic on arm64, so that some stale huge pmd entries may
remain in the TLB. These entries need to be flushed via the huge pmd
spurious fault fixing mechanism.

We need the ability to split PFN remap between updating the VMA and
performing the actual remap, in order to do away with the legacy f_op->mmap
hook.
To do so, update the PFN remap code to provide shared logic, and also make
remap_pfn_range_notrack() static, as its one user, io_mapping_map_user()
was removed in commit 9a4f90e24661 ("mm: remove mm/io-mapping.c").
Then, introduce remap_pfn_range_prepare(), which accepts VMA descriptor
and PFN parameters, and remap_pfn_range_complete() which accepts the same
parameters as remap_pfn_rangte().
remap_pfn_range_prepare() will set the cow vma->vm_pgoff if necessary, so
it must be supplied with a correct PFN to do so.
While we're here, also clean up the duplicated #ifdef
__HAVE_PFNMAP_TRACKING check and put into a single #ifdef/#else block.
We keep these internal to mm as they should only be used by internal
helpers.

The prot_numa_skip() naming is not good since it updates the folio access
time except checking whether to skip prot NUMA, so rename it to
folio_can_map_prot_numa(), and cleanup it a bit, remove ret by directly
return value instead of goto style.
Adding a new helper vma_is_single_threaded_private() to check whether it's
a single threaded private VMA, and make folio_can_map_prot_numa() a
non-static function so that they could be reused in change_huge_pmd(),
since folio_can_map_prot_numa() will be shared in different paths, let's
move it near change_prot_numa() in mempolicy.c.

kmsan_vmap_pages_range_noflush() allocates its temp s_pages/o_pages arrays
with GFP_KERNEL, which may sleep. This is inconsistent with vmalloc() as
it will support non-blocking requests later.
Plumb gfp_mask through the kmsan_vmap_pages_range_noflush(), so it can use
it internally for its demand.
Please note, the subsequent __vmap_pages_range_noflush() still uses
GFP_KERNEL and can sleep. If a caller runs under reclaim constraints,
sleeping is forbidden, it must establish the appropriate memalloc scope
API.

Patch series "mm: do not assume file == vma->vm_file in
compat_vma_mmap_prepare()", v2.
As part of the efforts to eliminate the problematic f_op->mmap callback, a
new callback - f_op->mmap_prepare was provided.
While we are converting these callbacks, we must deal with 'stacked'
filesystems and drivers - those which in their own f_op->mmap callback
invoke an inner f_op->mmap callback.
To accomodate for this, a compatibility layer is provided that, via
vfs_mmap(), detects if f_op->mmap_prepare is provided and if so, generates
a vm_area_desc containing the VMA's metadata and invokes the call.
So far, we have provided desc->file equal to vma->vm_file. However this
is not necessarily valid, especially in the case of stacked drivers which
wish to assign a new file after the inner hook is invoked.
To account for this, we adjust vm_area_desc to have both file and vm_file
fields. The .vm_file field is strictly set to vma->vm_file (or in the
case of a new mapping, what will become vma->vm_file).
However, .file is set to whichever file vfs_mmap() is invoked with when
using the compatibilty layer.
Therefore, if the VMA's file needs to be updated in .mmap_prepare,
desc->vm_file should be assigned, whilst desc->file should be read.
No current f_op->mmap_prepare users assign desc->file so this is safe to
do.
This makes the .mmap_prepare callback in the context of a stacked
filesystem or driver completely consistent with the existing .mmap
implementations.
While we're here, we do a few small cleanups, and ensure that we const-ify
things correctly in the vm_area_desc struct to avoid hooks accidentally
trying to assign fields they should not.
This patch (of 2):
Stacked filesystems and drivers may invoke mmap hooks with a struct file
pointer that differs from the overlying file. We will make this
functionality possible in a subsequent patch.
In order to prepare for this, let's update vm_area_struct to separately
provide desc->file and desc->vm_file parameters.
The desc->file parameter is the file that the hook is expected to operate
upon, and is not assignable (though the hok may wish to e.g. update the
file's accessed time for instance).
The desc->vm_file defaults to what will become vma->vm_file and is what
the hook must reassign should it wish to change the VMA"s vma->vm_file.
For now we keep desc->file, vm_file the same to remain consistent.
No f_op->mmap_prepare() callback sets a new vma->vm_file currently, so
this is safe to change.
While we're here, make the mm_struct desc->mm pointers at immutable as
well as the desc->mm field itself.
As part of this change, also update the single hook which this would
otherwise break - mlock_future_ok(), invoked by secretmem_mmap_prepare()).
We additionally update set_vma_from_desc() to compare fields in a more
logical fashion, checking the (possibly) user-modified fields as the first
operand against the existing value as the second one.
Additionally, update VMA tests to accommodate changes.

There are 3 potential reasons for is_migrate_*() helpers:
1. They represent higher-level attributes of migratetypes, like
is_migrate_movable()
2. They are ifdef'd, like is_migrate_isolate().
3. For consistency with an is_migrate_*_page() helper, also like
is_migrate_isolate().
It looks like is_migrate_highatomic() was for case 3, but that was
removed in commit e0932b6c1f94 ("mm: page_alloc: consolidate free page
accounting").
So remove the indirection and go back to a simple comparison.

Several functions refer to the unfortunately named 'vm_flags' field when
referencing vmalloc flags, which happens to be the precise same name used
for VMA flags.
As a result these were erroneously changed to use the vm_flags_t type
(which currently is a typedef equivalent to unsigned long).
Currently this has no impact, but in future when vm_flags_t changes this
will result in issues, so change the type to unsigned long to account for
this.

implements a per-node control of proactive reclaim - beyond the
current memcg-based implementation.
"mm/damon: remove damon_callback" (SeongJae Park)
replaces the damon_callback interface with a more general and
powerful damon_call()+damos_walk() interface.
"mm/mremap: permit mremap() move of multiple VMAs" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
implements a number of mremap cleanups (of course) in preparation
for adding new mremap() functionality: newly permit the remapping
of multiple VMAs when the user is specifying MREMAP_FIXED. It still
excludes some specialized situations where this cannot be performed
reliably.
"drop hugetlb_free_pgd_range()" (Anthony Yznaga)
switches some sparc hugetlb code over to the generic version and
removes the thus-unneeded hugetlb_free_pgd_range().

augments the present userspace-requested update of DAMON sysfs
monitoring files. Automatic update is now provided, along with a
tunable to control the update interval.

does what is claims.
"mm: introduce snapshot_page" (Luiz Capitulino and David Hildenbrand)
provides (and uses) a means by which debug-style functions can grab
a copy of a pageframe and inspect it locklessly without tripping
over the races inherent in operating on the live pageframe
directly.
"use per-vma locks for /proc/pid/maps reads" (Suren Baghdasaryan)
addresses the large contention issues which can be triggered by
reads from that procfs file. Latencies are reduced by more than
half in some situations. The series also introduces several new

does some cleanup work in the selftests code.
"tools/testing: expand mremap testing" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
extends the mremap() selftest in several ways, including adding
more checking of Lorenzo's recently added "permit mremap() move of
multiple VMAs" feature.

Patch 6 ("mm: Optimize mprotect() by PTE batching") optimizes mprotect()
by batch clearing the ptes, masking in the new protections, and batch
setting the ptes. Suppose that the first pte of the batch is writable -
with the current implementation of folio_pte_batch(), it is not guaranteed
that the other ptes in the batch are already writable too, so we may
incorrectly end up setting the writable bit on all ptes via
modify_prot_commit_ptes().
Therefore, introduce FPB_RESPECT_WRITE so that all ptes in the batch are
writable or not.

Instead, let's just allow for specifying through flags whether we want to
have bits merged into the original PTE.
For the madvise() case, simplify by having only a single parameter for
merging young+dirty. For madvise_cold_or_pageout_pte_range() merging the
dirty bit is not required, but also not harmful. This code is not that
performance critical after all to really force all micro-optimizations.
As we now have two pte_t * parameters, use PageTable() to make sure we are
actually given a pointer at a copy of the PTE, not a pointer into an
actual page table.

Many users (including upcoming ones) don't really need the flags etc, and
can live with the possible overhead of a function call.
So let's provide a basic, non-inlined folio_pte_batch(), to avoid code
bloat while still providing a variant that optimizes out all flag checks
at runtime. folio_pte_batch_flags() will get inlined into
folio_pte_batch(), optimizing out any conditionals that depend on input
flags.
folio_pte_batch() will behave like folio_pte_batch_flags() when no flags
are specified. It's okay to add new users of folio_pte_batch_flags(), but
using folio_pte_batch() if applicable is preferred.
So, before this change, folio_pte_batch() was inlined into the C file
optimized by propagating constants within the resulting object file.
With this change, we now also have a folio_pte_batch() that is optimized
by propagating all constants. But instead of having one instance per
object file, we have a single shared one.
In zap_present_ptes(), where we care about performance, the compiler
already seem to generate a call to a common inlined folio_pte_batch()
variant, shared with fork() code. So calling the new non-inlined variant
should not make a difference.
While at it, drop the "addr" parameter that is unused.

Let's clean up a bit:
(1) No need for start_ptep vs. ptep anymore, we can simply use ptep.
(2) Let's switch to "unsigned int" for everything. Negative values do
not make sense.
(3) We can simplify the code by leaving the pte unchanged after the
pte_same() check.
(4) Clarify that we should never exceed a single VMA; it indicates a
problem in the caller.
No functional change intended.

Patch series "mm: folio_pte_batch() improvements", v2.
Ever since we added folio_pte_batch() for fork() + munmap() purposes, a
lot more users appeared (and more are being proposed), and more
functionality was added.
Most of the users only need basic functionality, and could benefit from a
non-inlined version.
So let's clean up folio_pte_batch() and split it into a basic
folio_pte_batch() (no flags) and a more advanced folio_pte_batch_ext().
Using either variant will now look much cleaner.
This series will likely conflict with some changes in some (old+new)
folio_pte_batch() users, but conflicts should be trivial to resolve.
This patch (of 4):
Respecting these PTE bits is the exception, so let's invert the meaning.
With this change, most callers don't have to pass any flags. This is a
preparation for splitting folio_pte_batch() into a non-inlined variant
that doesn't consume any flags.
Long-term, we want folio_pte_batch() to probably ignore most common PTE
bits (e.g., write/dirty/young/soft-dirty) that are not relevant for most
page table walkers: uffd-wp and protnone might be bits to consider in the
future. Only walkers that care about them can opt-in to respect them.
No functional change intended.

The core kernel code is currently very inconsistent in its use of
vm_flags_t vs. unsigned long. This prevents us from changing the type of
vm_flags_t in the future and is simply not correct, so correct this.
While this results in rather a lot of churn, it is a critical
pre-requisite for a future planned change to VMA flag type.
Additionally, update VMA userland tests to account for the changes.
To make review easier and to break things into smaller parts, driver and
architecture-specific changes is left for a subsequent commit.
The code has been adjusted to cascade the changes across all calling code
as far as is needed.
We will adjust architecture-specific and driver code in a subsequent patch.
Overall, this patch does not introduce any functional change.

This reverts commit a00ce85af2a1be494d3b0c9457e8e81cdcce2a89.
Commit a00ce85af2a1 ("mm: make alloc_demote_folio externally invokable for
migration") was made to let DAMOS_MIGRATE_{HOT,COLD} call the function.
But a previous commit made DAMOS_MIGRATE_{HOT,COLD} call
alloc_migration_target() instead. Hence there are no more callers of the
function outside of vmscan.c. Revert the commit to make the function
static again.

This reverts commit 8f75267d22bdf8e3baf70f2fa7092d8c2f58da71.
Commit 8f75267d22bd ("mm: rename alloc_demote_folio to
alloc_migrate_folio") was to reflect the fact the function is called for
not only demotion, but also general migrations from
DAMOS_MIGRATE_{HOT,COLD}. The previous commit made the DAMOS actions to
not use alloc_migrate_folio(), though. So, demote_folio_list() is the
only caller of alloc_migrate_folio(), and the name could now be rather
confusing. Revert the renaming commit.

walk_page_range_novma() is rather confusing - it supports two modes, one
used often, the other used only for debugging.
The first mode is the common case of traversal of kernel page tables,
which is what nearly all callers use this for.
Secondly it provides an unusual debugging interface that allows for the
traversal of page tables in a userland range of memory even for that
memory which is not described by a VMA.
It is far from certain that such page tables should even exist, but
perhaps this is precisely why it is useful as a debugging mechanism.
As a result, this is utilised by ptdump only. Historically, things were
reversed - ptdump was the only user, and other parts of the kernel evolved
to use the kernel page table walking here.
Since we have some complicated and confusing locking rules for the novma
case, it makes sense to separate the two usages into their own functions.
Doing this also provide self-documentation as to the intent of the caller
- are they doing something rather unusual or are they simply doing a
standard kernel page table walk?
We therefore establish two separate functions - walk_page_range_debug()
for this single usage, and walk_kernel_page_table_range() for general
kernel page table walking.
The walk_page_range_debug() function is currently used to traverse both
userland and kernel mappings, so we maintain this and in the case of
kernel mappings being traversed, we have walk_page_range_debug() invoke
walk_kernel_page_table_range() internally.
We additionally make walk_page_range_debug() internal to mm.

Previously the folio order of the previous readahead request was inferred
from the folio who's readahead marker was hit. But due to the way we have
to round to non-natural boundaries sometimes, this first folio in the
readahead block is often smaller than the preferred order for that
request. This means that for cases where the initial sync readahead is
poorly aligned, the folio order will ramp up much more slowly.
So instead, let's store the order in struct file_ra_state so we are not
affected by any required alignment. We previously made enough room in the
struct for a 16 order field. This should be plenty big enough since we
are limited to MAX_PAGECACHE_ORDER anyway, which is certainly never larger
than ~20.
Since we now pass order in struct file_ra_state, page_cache_ra_order() no
longer needs it's new_order parameter, so let's remove that.
Worked example:
Here we are touching pages 17-256 sequentially just as we did in the
previous commit, but now that we are remembering the preferred order
explicitly, we no longer have the slow ramp up problem. Note specifically
that we no longer have 2 rounds (2x ~128K) of order-2 folios:

The call_mmap() function violates the existing convention in
include/linux/fs.h whereby invocations of virtual file system hooks is
performed by functions prefixed with vfs_xxx().
Correct this by renaming call_mmap() to vfs_mmap(). This also avoids
confusion as to the fact that f_op->mmap_prepare may be invoked here.
Also rename __call_mmap_prepare() function to vfs_mmap_prepare() and adjust
to accept a file parameter, this is useful later for nested file systems.
Finally, fix up the VMA userland tests and ensure the mmap_prepare -> mmap
shim is implemented there.

This is a key step in our being able to abstract and isolate VMA
allocation and destruction logic.
This function is the last one where vm_area_free() and vm_area_dup() are
directly referenced outside of mmap, so having this in mm allows us to
isolate these.
We do the same for the nommu version which is substantially simpler.
We place the declaration for dup_mmap() in mm/internal.h and have
kernel/fork.c import this in order to prevent improper use of this
functionality elsewhere in the kernel.

MADV_DONTNEED[_LOCKED] handling for [process_]madvise() flushes tlb for
each vma of each address range. Update the logic to do tlb flushes in a
batched way. Initialize an mmu_gather object from do_madvise() and
vector_madvise(), which are the entry level functions for
[process_]madvise(), respectively. And pass those objects to the function
for per-vma work, via madvise_behavior struct. Make the per-vma logic not
flushes tlb on their own but just saves the tlb entries to the received
mmu_gather object. For this internal logic change, make
zap_page_range_single_batched() non-static and use it directly from
madvise_dontneed_single_vma(). Finally, the entry level functions flush
the tlb entries that gathered for the entire user request, at once.

find_suitable_fallback() is not as efficient as it could be, and somewhat
difficult to follow.
1. should_try_claim_block() is a loop invariant. There is no point in
checking fallback areas if the caller is interested in claimable
blocks but the order and the migratetype don't allow for that.
2. __rmqueue_steal() doesn't care about claimability, so it shouldn't
have to run those tests.
Different callers want different things from this helper:
1. __compact_finished() scans orders up until it finds a claimable block
2. __rmqueue_claim() scans orders down as long as blocks are claimable
3. __rmqueue_steal() doesn't care about claimability at all
Move should_try_claim_block() out of the loop. Only test it for the
two callers who care in the first place. Distinguish "no blocks" from
"order + mt are not claimable" in the return value; __rmqueue_claim()
can stop once order becomes unclaimable, __compact_finished() can keep
advancing until order becomes claimable.

The page allocator tracks the number of zones that have unaccepted memory
using static_branch_enc/dec() and uses that static branch in hot paths to
determine if it needs to deal with unaccepted memory.
Borislav and Thomas pointed out that the tracking is racy: operations on
static_branch are not serialized against adding/removing unaccepted pages
to/from the zone.
Sanity checks inside static_branch machinery detects it:
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 10 at kernel/jump_label.c:276 __static_key_slow_dec_cpuslocked+0x8e/0xa0
The comment around the WARN() explains the problem:
/*
* Warn about the '-1' case though; since that means a
* decrement is concurrent with a first (0->1) increment. IOW
* people are trying to disable something that wasn't yet fully
* enabled. This suggests an ordering problem on the user side.
*/
The effect of this static_branch optimization is only visible on
microbenchmark.
Instead of adding more complexity around it, remove it altogether.

On XEN PV, folio_pte_batch() can incorrectly batch beyond the end of a
folio due to a corner case in pte_advance_pfn(). Specifically, when the
PFN following the folio maps to an invalidated MFN,
expected_pte = pte_advance_pfn(expected_pte, nr);
produces a pte_none(). If the actual next PTE in memory is also
pte_none(), the pte_same() succeeds,
if (!pte_same(pte, expected_pte))
break;
the loop is not broken, and batching continues into unrelated memory.
For example, with a 4-page folio, the PTE layout might look like this:
[ 53.465673] [ T2552] folio_pte_batch: printing PTE values at addr=0x7f1ac9dc5000
[ 53.465674] [ T2552] PTE[453] = 000000010085c125
[ 53.465679] [ T2552] PTE[454] = 000000010085d125
[ 53.465682] [ T2552] PTE[455] = 000000010085e125
[ 53.465684] [ T2552] PTE[456] = 000000010085f125
[ 53.465686] [ T2552] PTE[457] = 0000000000000000 <-- not present
[ 53.465689] [ T2552] PTE[458] = 0000000101da7125
pte_advance_pfn(PTE[456]) returns a pte_none() due to invalid PFN->MFN
mapping. The next actual PTE (PTE[457]) is also pte_none(), so the loop
continues and includes PTE[457] in the batch, resulting in 5 batched
entries for a 4-page folio. This triggers the following warning:

Original code works as expected everywhere, except on XEN PV, where
pte_advance_pfn() can yield a pte_none() after balloon inflation due to
MFNs invalidation. In XEN, pte_advance_pfn() ends up calling
__pte()->xen_make_pte()->pte_pfn_to_mfn(), which returns pte_none() when
mfn == INVALID_P2M_ENTRY.
The pte_pfn_to_mfn() documents that nastiness:
If there's no mfn for the pfn, then just create an
empty non-present pte. Unfortunately this loses
information about the original pfn, so
pte_mfn_to_pfn is asymmetric.
While such hacks should certainly be removed, we can do better in
folio_pte_batch() and simply check ahead of time how many PTEs we can
possibly batch in our folio.
This way, we can not only fix the issue but cleanup the code: removing the
pte_pfn() check inside the loop body and avoiding end_ptr comparison +
arithmetic.

When the last page in the zone is accepted, __accept_page() calls
static_branch_dec(). This function takes cpu_hotplug_lock, which can lead
to a deadlock if the allocation occurs during CPU bringup path as
_cpu_up() also takes the lock.
To prevent this deadlock, defer static_branch_dec() to a workqueue.
Call static_branch_dec() only when the workqueue is not yet initialized.
Workqueues are initialized before CPU bring up, so this will not conflict
with the first scenario.

Bizjak uses x86 named address space qualifiers to provide
compile-time checking of percpu area accesses.
This has caused a small amount of fallout - two or three issues were
reported. In all cases the calling code was found to be incorrect.
- The series "Some cleanup for memcg" from Chen Ridong implements some
relatively monir cleanups for the memcontrol code.
- The series "mm: fixes for device-exclusive entries (hmm)" from David
Hildenbrand fixes a boatload of issues which David found then using
device-exclusive PTE entries when THP is enabled. More work is
needed, but this makes thins better - our own HMM selftests now
succeed.
- The series "mm: zswap: remove z3fold and zbud" from Yosry Ahmed
remove the z3fold and zbud implementations. They have been deprecated
for half a year and nobody has complained.
- The series "mm: further simplify VMA merge operation" from Lorenzo
Stoakes implements numerous simplifications in this area. No runtime
effects are anticipated.
- The series "mm/madvise: remove redundant mmap_lock operations from
process_madvise()" from SeongJae Park rationalizes the locking in the
madvise() implementation. Performance gains of 20-25% were observed
in one MADV_DONTNEED microbenchmark.

Pull bpf try_alloc_pages() support from Alexei Starovoitov:
"The pull includes work from Sebastian, Vlastimil and myself with a lot
of help from Michal and Shakeel.
This is a first step towards making kmalloc reentrant to get rid of
slab wrappers: bpf_mem_alloc, kretprobe's objpool, etc. These patches
make page allocator safe from any context.
Vlastimil kicked off this effort at LSFMM 2024:
https://lwn.net/Articles/974138/
and we continued at LSFMM 2025:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/CAADnVQKfkGxudNUkcPJgwe3nTZ=xohnRshx9kLZBTmR_E1DFEg@mail.gmail.com/
Why:
SLAB wrappers bind memory to a particular subsystem making it
unavailable to the rest of the kernel. Some BPF maps in production
consume Gbytes of preallocated memory. Top 5 in Meta: 1.5G, 1.2G,
1.1G, 300M, 200M. Once we have kmalloc that works in any context BPF
map preallocation won't be necessary.
How:
Synchronous kmalloc/page alloc stack has multiple stages going from
fast to slow: cmpxchg16 -> slab_alloc -> new_slab -> alloc_pages ->
rmqueue_pcplist -> __rmqueue, where rmqueue_pcplist was already
relying on trylock.
This set changes rmqueue_bulk/rmqueue_buddy to attempt a trylock and
return ENOMEM if alloc_flags & ALLOC_TRYLOCK. It then wraps this
functionality into try_alloc_pages() helper. We make sure that the
logic is sane in PREEMPT_RT.
End result: try_alloc_pages()/free_pages_nolock() are safe to call
from any context.
try_kmalloc() for any context with similar trylock approach will
follow. It will use try_alloc_pages() when slab needs a new page.
Though such try_kmalloc/page_alloc() is an opportunistic allocator,
this design ensures that the probability of successful allocation of
small objects (up to one page in size) is high.
Even before we have try_kmalloc(), we already use try_alloc_pages() in
BPF arena implementation and it's going to be used more extensively in
BPF"

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sysctl/sysctl
Pull sysctl updates from Joel Granados:
- Move vm_table members out of kernel/sysctl.c
All vm_table array members have moved to their respective subsystems
leading to the removal of vm_table from kernel/sysctl.c. This
increases modularity by placing the ctl_tables closer to where they
are actually used and at the same time reducing the chances of merge
conflicts in kernel/sysctl.c.
- ctl_table range fixes
Replace the proc_handler function that checks variable ranges in
coredump_sysctls and vdso_table with the one that actually uses the
extra{1,2} pointers as min/max values. This tightens the range of the
values that users can pass into the kernel effectively preventing
{under,over}flows.
- Misc fixes
Correct grammar errors and typos in test messages. Update sysctl
files in MAINTAINERS. Constified and removed array size in
declaration for alignment_tbl

__init_reserved_page_zone() function finds the zone for pfn and nid and
performs initialization of a struct page with that zone and nid. There is
nothing in that function about reserved pages and it is misnamed.
Rename it to __init_page_from_nid() to better reflect what the function
does.

The previous patch added pageblock_order reclaim to kswapd/kcompactd,
which helps, but produces only one block at a time. Allocation stalls and
THP failure rates are still higher than they could be.
To adequately reflect ALLOC_NOFRAGMENT demand for pageblocks, change the
watermarking for kswapd & kcompactd: instead of targeting the high
watermark in order-0 pages and checking for one suitable block, simply
require that the high watermark is entirely met in pageblocks.
To this end, track the number of free pages within contiguous pageblocks,
then change pgdat_balanced() and compact_finished() to check watermarks
against this new value.
This further reduces THP latencies and allocation stalls, and improves THP
success rates against the previous patch:

Also of note is that compaction work overall is reduced. The reason for
this is that when free pageblocks are more readily available, allocations
are also much more likely to get physically placed in LRU order, instead
of being forced to scavenge free space here and there. This means that
reclaim by itself has better chances of freeing up whole blocks, and the
system relies less on compaction.

THP allocation latencies and %sys time are down dramatically.
THP allocation failures are down from nearly 50% to 8.5%. And to recall
previous data points, the success rates are steady and reliable without
the cumulative deterioration of fragmentation events.
Compaction work is down overall. Direct compaction work especially is
drastically reduced. As an aside, its success rate of 4% indicates there
is room for improvement. For now it's good to rely on it less.
Reclaim work is up overall, however direct reclaim work is down. Part of
the increase can be attributed to a higher use of THPs, which due to
internal fragmentation increase the memory footprint. This is not
necessarily an unexpected side-effect for users of THP.
However, taken both points together, there may well be some opportunities
for fine tuning in the reclaim/compaction coordination.

The point where the memory is released from memblock to the buddy
allocator is hidden inside arch-specific mem_init()s and the call to
memblock_free_all() is needlessly duplicated in every artiste cure and
after introduction of arch_mm_preinit() hook, mem_init() implementation on
many architecture only contains the call to memblock_free_all().
Pull memblock_free_all() call into mm_core_init() and drop mem_init() on
relevant architectures to make it more explicit where the free memory is
released from memblock to the buddy allocator and to reduce code
duplication in architecture specific code.

(CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT)
Everything is in place to stop using the per-page mapcounts in large
folios: the mapcount of tail pages will always be logically 0 (-1 value),
just like it currently is for hugetlb folios already, and the page
mapcount of the head page is either 0 (-1 value) or contains a page type
(e.g., hugetlb).
Maintaining _nr_pages_mapped without per-page mapcounts is impossible, so
that one also has to go with CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT.
There are two remaining implications:
(1) Per-node, per-cgroup and per-lruvec stats of "NR_ANON_MAPPED"
("mapped anonymous memory") and "NR_FILE_MAPPED"
("mapped file memory"):
As soon as any page of the folio is mapped -- folio_mapped() -- we
now account the complete folio as mapped. Once the last page is
unmapped -- !folio_mapped() -- we account the complete folio as
unmapped.
This implies that ...
* "AnonPages" and "Mapped" in /proc/meminfo and
/sys/devices/system/node/*/meminfo
* cgroup v2: "anon" and "file_mapped" in "memory.stat" and
"memory.numa_stat"
* cgroup v1: "rss" and "mapped_file" in "memory.stat" and
"memory.numa_stat
... can now appear higher than before. But note that these folios do
consume that memory, simply not all pages are actually currently
mapped.
It's worth nothing that other accounting in the kernel (esp. cgroup
charging on allocation) is not affected by this change.
[why oh why is "anon" called "rss" in cgroup v1]
(2) Detecting partial mappings
Detecting whether anon THPs are partially mapped gets a bit more
unreliable. As long as a single MM maps such a large folio
("exclusively mapped"), we can reliably detect it. Especially before
fork() / after a short-lived child process quit, we will detect
partial mappings reliably, which is the common case.
In essence, if the average per-page mapcount in an anon THP is < 1,
we know for sure that we have a partial mapping.
However, as soon as multiple MMs are involved, we might miss detecting
partial mappings: this might be relevant with long-lived child
processes. If we have a fully-mapped anon folio before fork(), once
our child processes and our parent all unmap (zap/COW) the same pages
(but not the complete folio), we might not detect the partial mapping.
However, once the child processes quit we would detect the partial
mapping.
How relevant this case is in practice remains to be seen.
Swapout/migration will likely mitigate this.
In the future, RMAP walkers could check for that for that case
(e.g., when collecting access bits during reclaim) and simply flag
them for deferred-splitting.

For small folios, we traditionally use the mapcount to decide whether it
was "certainly mapped exclusively" by a single MM (mapcount == 1) or
whether it "maybe mapped shared" by multiple MMs (mapcount > 1). For
PMD-sized folios that were PMD-mapped, we were able to use a similar
mechanism (single PMD mapping), but for PTE-mapped folios and in the
future folios that span multiple PMDs, this does not work.
So we need a different mechanism to handle large folios. Let's add a new
mechanism to detect whether a large folio is "certainly mapped
exclusively", or whether it is "maybe mapped shared".
We'll use this information next to optimize CoW reuse for PTE-mapped
anonymous THP, and to convert folio_likely_mapped_shared() to
folio_maybe_mapped_shared(), independent of per-page mapcounts.
For each large folio, we'll have two slots, whereby a slot stores:
(1) an MM id: unique id assigned to each MM
(2) a per-MM mapcount
If a slot is unoccupied, it can be taken by the next MM that maps folio
page.
In addition, we'll remember the current state -- "mapped exclusively" vs.
"maybe mapped shared" -- and use a bit spinlock to sync on updates and to
reduce the total number of atomic accesses on updates. In the future, it
might be possible to squeeze a proper spinlock into "struct folio". For
now, keep it simple, as we require the whole thing with THP only, that is
incompatible with RT.
As we have to squeeze this information into the "struct folio" of even
folios of order-1 (2 pages), and we generally want to reduce the required
metadata, we'll assign each MM a unique ID that can fit into an int. In
total, we can squeeze everything into 4x int (2x long) on 64bit.
32bit support is a bit challenging, because we only have 2x long == 2x int
in order-1 folios. But we can make it work for now, because we neither
expect many MMs nor very large folios on 32bit.
We will reliably detect folios as "mapped exclusively" vs. "mapped
shared" as long as only two MMs map pages of a folio at one point in time
-- for example with fork() and short-lived child processes, or with apps
that hand over state from one instance to another.
As soon as three MMs are involved at the same time, we might detect "maybe
mapped shared" although the folio is "mapped exclusively".
Example 1:
(1) App1 faults in a (shmem/file-backed) folio page -> Tracked as MM0
(2) App2 faults in a folio page -> Tracked as MM1
(4) App1 unmaps all folio pages
-> We will detect "mapped exclusively".
Example 2:
(1) App1 faults in a (shmem/file-backed) folio page -> Tracked as MM0
(2) App2 faults in a folio page -> Tracked as MM1
(3) App3 faults in a folio page -> No slot available, tracked as "unknown"
(4) App1 and App2 unmap all folio pages
-> We will detect "maybe mapped shared".
Make use of __always_inline to keep possible performance degradation when
(un)mapping large folios to a minimum.
Note: by squeezing the two flags into the "unsigned long" that stores the
MM ids, we can use non-atomic __bit_spin_unlock() and non-atomic
setting/clearing of the "maybe mapped shared" bit, effectively not adding
any new atomics on the hot path when updating the large mapcount + new
metadata, which further helps reduce the runtime overhead in
micro-benchmarks.

Let's free up some space on 32bit in page[1] by moving the _pincount to
page[2].
Ordinary folios only use the entire mapcount with PMD mappings, so order-1
folios don't apply. Similarly, hugetlb folios are always larger than
order-1, turning the entire mapcount essentially unused for all order-1
folios. Moving it to order-1 folios will not change anything.
On 32bit, simply check in folio_entire_mapcount() whether we have an
order-1 folio, and return 0 in that case.
Note that THPs on 32bit are not particularly common (and we don't care too
much about performance), but we want to keep it working reliably, because
likely we want to use large folios there as well in the future,
independent of PMD leaf support.
Once we dynamically allocate "struct folio", the 32bit specifics will go

Let's free up some space on 32bit in page[1] by moving the _pincount to
page[2].
For order-1 folios (never anon folios!) on 32bit, we will now also use the
GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS approach. A fully-mapped order-1 folio requires 2
references. With GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS being 1024, we'd detect such
folios as "maybe pinned" with 512 full mappings, instead of 1024 for
order-0. As anon folios are out of the picture (which are the most
relevant users of checking for pinnings on *mapped* pages) and we are
talking about 32bit, this is not expected to cause any trouble.
In __dump_page(), copy one additional folio page if we detect a folio with
an order > 1, so we can dump the pincount on order > 1 folios reliably.
Note that THPs on 32bit are not particularly common (and we don't care too
much about performance), but we want to keep it working reliably, because
likely we want to use large folios there as well in the future,
independent of PMD leaf support.
Once we dynamically allocate "struct folio", fortunately the 32bit
specifics will likely go away again; even small folios could then have a
pincount and folio_has_pincount() would essentially always return "true".

Let's free up some more of the "unconditionally available on 64BIT" space
in order-1 folios by letting _folio_nr_pages overlay memcg_data in the
first tail page (second folio page). Consequently, we have the
optimization now whenever we have CONFIG_MEMCG, independent of 64BIT.
We have to make sure that page->memcg on tail pages does not return
"surprises". page_memcg_check() already properly refuses PageTail().
Let's do that earlier in print_page_owner_memcg() to avoid printing wrong
"Slab cache page" information. No other code should touch that field on
tail pages of compound pages.
Reset the "_nr_pages" to 0 when splitting folios, or when freeing them
back to the buddy (to avoid false page->memcg_data "bad page" reports).
Note that in __split_huge_page(), folio_nr_pages() would stop working
already as soon as we start messing with the subpages.
Most kernel configs should have at least CONFIG_MEMCG enabled, even if
disabled at runtime. 64byte "struct memmap" is what we usually have on
64BIT.
While at it, rename "_folio_nr_pages" to "_nr_pages".
Hopefully memdescs / dynamically allocating "strut folio" in the future
will further clean this up, e.g., making _nr_pages available in all
configs and maybe even in small folios. Doing that should be fairly easy
on top of this change.

Finish refactoring the page table logic by threading the PMC state
throughout the operation, allowing us to control the operation as we go.
Additionally, update the old_addr, new_addr fields in move_page_tables()
as we progress through the process making use of the fact we have this
state object now to track this.
With these changes made, not only is the code far more readable, but we
can finally transmit state throughout the entire operation, which lays the
groundwork for sensibly making changes in future to how the mremap()
operation is performed.
Additionally take the opportunity to refactor the means of determining the
progress of the operation, abstracting this to pmc_progress() and
simplifying the logic to make it clearer what's going on.

A lot of state is threaded throughout the page table moving logic within
the mremap code, including boolean values which control behaviour
specifically in regard to whether rmap locks need be held over the
operation and whether the VMA belongs to a temporary stack being moved by
move_arg_pages() (and consequently, relocate_vma_down()).
As we already transmit state throughout this operation, it is neater and
more readable to maintain a small state object. We do so in the form of
pagetable_move_control.
In addition, this allows us to update parameters within the state as we
manipulate things, for instance with regard to the page table realignment
logic.
In future I want to add additional functionality to the page table logic,
so this is an additional motivation for making it easier to do so.
This patch changes move_page_tables() to accept a pointer to a
pagetable_move_control struct, and performs changes at this level only.
Further page table logic will be updated in a subsequent patch.
We additionally also take the opportunity to add significant comments
describing the address realignment logic to make it abundantly clear what
is going on in this code.

Currently fs dax pages are considered free when the refcount drops to one
and their refcounts are not increased when mapped via PTEs or decreased
when unmapped. This requires special logic in mm paths to detect that
these pages should not be properly refcounted, and to detect when the
refcount drops to one instead of zero.
On the other hand get_user_pages(), etc. will properly refcount fs dax
pages by taking a reference and dropping it when the page is unpinned.
Tracking this special behaviour requires extra PTE bits (eg. pte_devmap)
and introduces rules that are potentially confusing and specific to FS DAX
pages. To fix this, and to possibly allow removal of the special PTE bits
in future, convert the fs dax page refcounts to be zero based and instead
take a reference on the page each time it is mapped as is currently the
case for normal pages.
This may also allow a future clean-up to remove the pgmap refcounting that
is currently done in mm/gup.c.

Patch series "mm/page_alloc: Some clarifications for migratetype
fallback", v4.
A couple of patches to try and make the code easier to follow.
This patch (of 2):
This code is rather confusing because:
1. "Steal" is sometimes used to refer to the general concept of
allocating from a from a block of a fallback migratetype
(steal_suitable_fallback()) but sometimes it refers specifically to
converting a whole block's migratetype (can_steal_fallback()).
2. can_steal_fallback() sounds as though it's answering the question "am
I functionally permitted to allocate from that other type" but in
fact it is encoding a heuristic preference.
3. The same piece of data has different names in different places:
can_steal vs whole_block. This reinforces point 2 because it looks
like the different names reflect a shift in intent from "am I
allowed to steal" to "do I want to steal", but no such shift exists.
Fix 1. by avoiding the term "steal" in ambiguous contexts. Start using
the term "claim" to refer to the special case of stealing the entire
block.
Fix 2. by using "should" instead of "can", and also rename its
parameters and add some commentary to make it more explicit what they
mean.
Fix 3. by adopting the new "claim" terminology universally for this
set of variables.

It can be desirable to reserve memory in a CMA area before it is
activated, early in boot. Such reservations would effectively be memblock
allocations, but they can be returned to the CMA area later. This
functionality can be used to allow hugetlb bootmem allocations from a
hugetlb CMA area.
A new interface, cma_reserve_early is introduced. This allows for
pageblock-aligned reservations. These reservations are skipped during the
initial handoff of pages in a CMA area to the buddy allocator. The caller
is responsible for making sure that the page structures are set up, and
that the migrate type is set correctly, as with other memblock allocations
that stick around. If the CMA area fails to activate (because it
intersects with multiple zones), the reserved memory is not given to the
buddy allocator, the caller needs to take care of that.

Bootmem hugetlb pages are allocated using memblock, which isn't (and
mostly can't be) aware of zones.
So, they may end up crossing zone boundaries. This would create
confusion, a hugetlb page that is part of multiple zones is bad. Worse,
HVO might then end up stealthily re-assigning pages to a different zone
when a hugetlb page is freed, since the tail page structures beyond the
first vmemmap page would inherit the zone of the first page structures.
While the chance of this happening is low, you can definitely create a
configuration where this happens (especially using ZONE_MOVABLE).
To avoid this issue, check if bootmem hugetlb pages intersect with
multiple zones during the gather phase, and discard them, handing them to
the page allocator, if they do. Record the number of invalid bootmem
pages per node and subtract them from the number of available pages at the
end, making it easier to do these checks in multiple places later on.

Patch series "mm: memory_failure: unmap poisoned folio during migrate
properly", v3.
Fix two bugs during folio migration if the folio is poisoned.
This patch (of 3):
Commit 6da6b1d4a7df ("mm/hwpoison: convert TTU_IGNORE_HWPOISON to
TTU_HWPOISON") introduce TTU_HWPOISON to replace TTU_IGNORE_HWPOISON in
order to stop send SIGBUS signal when accessing an error page after a
memory error on a clean folio. However during page migration, anon folio
must be set with TTU_HWPOISON during unmap_*(). For pagecache we need
some policy just like the one in hwpoison_user_mappings to set this flag.
So move this policy from hwpoison_user_mappings to unmap_poisoned_folio to
handle this warning properly.
Warning will be produced during unamp poison folio with the following log:

Tracing BPF programs execute from tracepoints and kprobes where
running context is unknown, but they need to request additional
memory. The prior workarounds were using pre-allocated memory and
BPF specific freelists to satisfy such allocation requests.
Instead, introduce gfpflags_allow_spinning() condition that signals
to the allocator that running context is unknown.
Then rely on percpu free list of pages to allocate a page.
try_alloc_pages() -> get_page_from_freelist() -> rmqueue() ->
rmqueue_pcplist() will spin_trylock to grab the page from percpu
free list. If it fails (due to re-entrancy or list being empty)
then rmqueue_bulk()/rmqueue_buddy() will attempt to
spin_trylock zone->lock and grab the page from there.
spin_trylock() is not safe in PREEMPT_RT when in NMI or in hard IRQ.
Bailout early in such case.
The support for gfpflags_allow_spinning() mode for free_page and memcg
comes in the next patches.
This is a first step towards supporting BPF requirements in SLUB
and getting rid of bpf_mem_alloc.
That goal was discussed at LSFMM: https://lwn.net/Articles/974138/

In preparation for using this elsewhere as well, have it take a gfp_t mask
rather than assume GFP_KERNEL is the right choice. This bubbles back to
invalidate_complete_folio2() as well.

No code logic change.
can_do_mseal() is called exclusively by mseal.c, and mseal.c is compiled
only when CONFIG_64BIT flag is set in makefile. Therefore, it is
unnecessary to have 32 bit stub function in the header file, remove this
function and merge the logic into do_mseal().

Now in order to pursue high performance, applications mostly use some
high-performance user-mode memory allocators, such as jemalloc or
tcmalloc. These memory allocators use madvise(MADV_DONTNEED or MADV_FREE)
to release physical memory, but neither MADV_DONTNEED nor MADV_FREE will
release page table memory, which may cause huge page table memory usage.
The following are a memory usage snapshot of one process which actually
happened on our server:
VIRT: 55t
RES: 590g
VmPTE: 110g
In this case, most of the page table entries are empty. For such a PTE
page where all entries are empty, we can actually free it back to the
system for others to use.
As a first step, this commit aims to synchronously free the empty PTE
pages in madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) case. We will detect and free empty PTE
pages in zap_pte_range(), and will add zap_details.reclaim_pt to exclude
cases other than madvise(MADV_DONTNEED).
Once an empty PTE is detected, we first try to hold the pmd lock within
the pte lock. If successful, we clear the pmd entry directly (fast path).
Otherwise, we wait until the pte lock is released, then re-hold the pmd
and pte locks and loop PTRS_PER_PTE times to check pte_none() to re-detect
whether the PTE page is empty and free it (slow path).
For other cases such as madvise(MADV_FREE), consider scanning and freeing
empty PTE pages asynchronously in the future.
The following code snippet can show the effect of optimization:
mmap 50G
while (1) {
for (; i < 1024 * 25; i++) {
touch 2M memory
madvise MADV_DONTNEED 2M
}
}
As we can see, the memory usage of VmPTE is reduced:

Since commit 5abc1e37afa0 ("mm: list_lru: allocate list_lru_one only when
needed"), all list_lru users need to allocate the items using the new
infrastructure that provides list_lru info for slab allocation, ensuring
that the corresponding memcg list_lru is allocated before use.
For workingset shadow nodes (which are xa_node), users are converted to
use the new infrastructure by commit 9bbdc0f32409 ("xarray: use
kmem_cache_alloc_lru to allocate xa_node"). The xas->xa_lru will be set
correctly for filemap users. However, there is a missing case: xa_node
allocations caused by madvise(..., MADV_COLLAPSE).
madvise(..., MADV_COLLAPSE) will also read in the absent parts of file
map, and there will be xa_nodes allocated for the caller's memcg (assuming
it's not rootcg). However, these allocations won't trigger memcg list_lru
allocation because the proper xas info was not set.
If nothing else has allocated other xa_nodes for that memcg to trigger
list_lru creation, and memory pressure starts to evict file pages,
workingset_update_node will try to add these xa_nodes to their
corresponding memcg list_lru, and it does not exist (NULL). So they will
be added to rootcg's list_lru instead.
This shouldn't be a significant issue in practice, but it is indeed
unexpected behavior, and these xa_nodes will not be reclaimed effectively.
And may lead to incorrect counting of the list_lru->nr_items counter.
This problem wasn't exposed until recent commit 28e98022b31ef
("mm/list_lru: simplify reparenting and initial allocation") added a
sanity check: only dying memcg could have a NULL list_lru when
list_lru_{add,del} is called. This problem triggered this WARNING.
So make madvise(..., MADV_COLLAPSE) also call xas_set_lru() to pass the
list_lru which we may want to insert xa_node into later. And move
mapping_set_update to mm/internal.h, and turn into a macro to avoid
including extra headers in mm/internal.h.

Some architectures have special handling after clearing user folios:
architectures, which set cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() to true, require
flushing dcache; arc, which sets cpu_icache_is_aliasing() to true, changes
folio->flags to make icache coherent to dcache. So __GFP_ZERO using only
clear_page() is not enough to zero user folios and clear_user_(high)page()
must be used. Otherwise, user data will be corrupted.
Fix it by always clearing user folios with clear_user_(high)page() when
cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() is true or cpu_icache_is_aliasing() is true.
Rename alloc_zeroed() to user_alloc_needs_zeroing() and invert the logic
to clarify its intend.

Commit b1fca27d384e ("kernel debug: support resetting WARN*_ONCE")
added support for clearing the state of once warnings. However,
it is not functional when CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION or
CONFIG_LTO_CLANG is enabled, because .data.once matches the
.data.[0-9a-zA-Z_]* pattern in the DATA_MAIN macro.
Commit cb87481ee89d ("kbuild: linker script do not match C names unless
LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION is configured") was introduced to suppress
the issue for the default CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION=n case,
providing a minimal fix for stable backporting. We were aware this did
not address the issue for CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION=y. The
plan was to apply correct fixes and then revert cb87481ee89d. [1]
Seven years have passed since then, yet the #ifdef workaround remains in
place. Meanwhile, commit b1fca27d384e introduced the .data.once section,
and commit dc5723b02e52 ("kbuild: add support for Clang LTO") extended
the #ifdef.
Using a ".." separator in the section name fixes the issue for
CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION and CONFIG_LTO_CLANG.

Patch series "implement lightweight guard pages", v4.
Userland library functions such as allocators and threading
implementations often require regions of memory to act as 'guard pages' -
mappings which, when accessed, result in a fatal signal being sent to the
accessing process.
The current means by which these are implemented is via a PROT_NONE mmap()
mapping, which provides the required semantics however incur an overhead
of a VMA for each such region.
With a great many processes and threads, this can rapidly add up and incur
a significant memory penalty. It also has the added problem of preventing
merges that might otherwise be permitted.
This series takes a different approach - an idea suggested by Vlastimil
Babka (and before him David Hildenbrand and Jann Horn - perhaps more - the
provenance becomes a little tricky to ascertain after this - please
forgive any omissions!) - rather than locating the guard pages at the VMA
layer, instead placing them in page tables mapping the required ranges.
Early testing of the prototype version of this code suggests a 5 times
speed up in memory mapping invocations (in conjunction with use of
process_madvise()) and a 13% reduction in VMAs on an entirely idle android
system and unoptimised code.
We expect with optimisation and a loaded system with a larger number of
guard pages this could significantly increase, but in any case these
numbers are encouraging.
This way, rather than having separate VMAs specifying which parts of a
range are guard pages, instead we have a VMA spanning the entire range of
memory a user is permitted to access and including ranges which are to be
'guarded'.
After mapping this, a user can specify which parts of the range should
result in a fatal signal when accessed.
By restricting the ability to specify guard pages to memory mapped by
existing VMAs, we can rely on the mappings being torn down when the
mappings are ultimately unmapped and everything works simply as if the
memory were not faulted in, from the point of view of the containing VMAs.
This mechanism in effect poisons memory ranges similar to hardware memory
poisoning, only it is an entirely software-controlled form of poisoning.
The mechanism is implemented via madvise() behaviour - MADV_GUARD_INSTALL
which installs page table-level guard page markers - and MADV_GUARD_REMOVE
- which clears them.
Guard markers can be installed across multiple VMAs and any existing
mappings will be cleared, that is zapped, before installing the guard page
markers in the page tables.
There is no concept of 'nested' guard markers, multiple attempts to
install guard markers in a range will, after the first attempt, have no
effect.
Importantly, removing guard markers over a range that contains both guard
markers and ordinary backed memory has no effect on anything but the guard
markers (including leaving huge pages un-split), so a user can safely
remove guard markers over a range of memory leaving the rest intact.
The actual mechanism by which the page table entries are specified makes
use of existing logic - PTE markers, which are used for the userfaultfd
UFFDIO_POISON mechanism.
Unfortunately PTE_MARKER_POISONED is not suited for the guard page
mechanism as it results in VM_FAULT_HWPOISON semantics in the fault
handler, so we add our own specific PTE_MARKER_GUARD and adapt existing
logic to handle it.
We also extend the generic page walk mechanism to allow for installation
of PTEs (carefully restricted to memory management logic only to prevent
unwanted abuse).
We ensure that zapping performed by MADV_DONTNEED and MADV_FREE do not
remove guard markers, nor does forking (except when VM_WIPEONFORK is
specified for a VMA which implies a total removal of memory
characteristics).
It's important to note that the guard page implementation is emphatically
NOT a security feature, so a user can remove the markers if they wish. We
simply implement it in such a way as to provide the least surprising
behaviour.
An extensive set of self-tests are provided which ensure behaviour is as
expected and additionally self-documents expected behaviour of guard
ranges.
This patch (of 5):
The existing generic pagewalk logic permits the walking of page tables,
invoking callbacks at individual page table levels via user-provided
mm_walk_ops callbacks.
This is useful for traversing existing page table entries, but precludes
the ability to establish new ones.
Existing mechanism for performing a walk which also installs page table
entries if necessary are heavily duplicated throughout the kernel, each
with semantic differences from one another and largely unavailable for use
elsewhere.
Rather than add yet another implementation, we extend the generic pagewalk
logic to enable the installation of page table entries by adding a new
install_pte() callback in mm_walk_ops. If this is specified, then upon
encountering a missing page table entry, we allocate and install a new one
and continue the traversal.
If a THP huge page is encountered at either the PMD or PUD level we split
it only if there are ops->pte_entry() (or ops->pmd_entry at PUD level),
otherwise if there is only an ops->install_pte(), we avoid the unnecessary
split.
We do not support hugetlb at this stage.
If this function returns an error, or an allocation fails during the
operation, we abort the operation altogether. It is up to the caller to
deal appropriately with partially populated page table ranges.
If install_pte() is defined, the semantics of pte_entry() change - this
callback is then only invoked if the entry already exists. This is a
useful property, as it allows a caller to handle existing PTEs while
installing new ones where necessary in the specified range.
If install_pte() is not defined, then there is no functional difference to
this patch, so all existing logic will work precisely as it did before.
As we only permit the installation of PTEs where a mapping does not
already exist there is no need for TLB management, however we do invoke
update_mmu_cache() for architectures which require manual maintenance of
mappings for other CPUs.
We explicitly do not allow the existing page walk API to expose this
feature as it is dangerous and intended for internal mm use only.
Therefore we provide a new walk_page_range_mm() function exposed only to
mm/internal.h.
We take the opportunity to additionally clean up the page walker logic to
be a little easier to follow.

other functions take const pointers, we can make page_address_in_vma()
take const pointers too. All of its callers have the containing folio
already, so pass that in as an argument instead of recalculating it. Also
add kernel-doc

The memory reserved for module tags does not need to be backed by physical
pages until there are tags to store there. Change the way we reserve this
memory to allocate only virtual area for the tags and populate it with
physical pages as needed when we load a module.

Using large pages to map text areas reduces iTLB pressure and improves
performance.
Extend execmem_alloc() with an ability to use huge pages with ROX
permissions as a cache for smaller allocations.
To populate the cache, a writable large page is allocated from vmalloc
with VM_ALLOW_HUGE_VMAP, filled with invalid instructions and then
remapped as ROX.
The direct map alias of that large page is exculded from the direct map.
Portions of that large page are handed out to execmem_alloc() callers
without any changes to the permissions.
When the memory is freed with execmem_free() it is invalidated again so
that it won't contain stale instructions.
An architecture has to implement execmem_fill_trapping_insns() callback
and select ARCH_HAS_EXECMEM_ROX configuration option to be able to use the
ROX cache.
The cache is enabled on per-range basis when an architecture sets
EXECMEM_ROX_CACHE flag in definition of an execmem_range.

Commit 6471384af2a6 ("mm: security: introduce init_on_alloc=1 and
init_on_free=1 boot options") forces allocated page to be zeroed in
post_alloc_hook() when init_on_alloc=1.
For order-0 folios, if arch does not define
vma_alloc_zeroed_movable_folio(), the default implementation again zeros
the page return from the buddy allocator. So the page is zeroed twice.
Fix it by passing __GFP_ZERO instead to avoid double page zeroing. At the
moment, s390,arm64,x86,alpha,m68k are not impacted since they define their
own vma_alloc_zeroed_movable_folio().
For >0 order folios (mTHP and PMD THP), folio_zero_user() is called to
zero the folio again. Fix it by calling folio_zero_user() only if
init_on_alloc is set. All arch are impacted.
Add alloc_zeroed() helper to encapsulate the init_on_alloc check.

Incorrect invocation of VMA callbacks when the VMA is no longer in a
consistent state is bug prone and risky to perform.
With regards to the important vm_ops->close() callback We have gone to
great lengths to try to track whether or not we ought to close VMAs.
Rather than doing so and risking making a mistake somewhere, instead
unconditionally close and reset vma->vm_ops to an empty dummy operations
set with a NULL .close operator.
We introduce a new function to do so - vma_close() - and simplify existing
vms logic which tracked whether we needed to close or not.
This simplifies the logic, avoids incorrect double-calling of the .close()
callback and allows us to update error paths to simply call vma_close()
unconditionally - making VMA closure idempotent.

Patch series "fix error handling in mmap_region() and refactor
(hotfixes)", v4.
mmap_region() is somewhat terrifying, with spaghetti-like control flow and
numerous means by which issues can arise and incomplete state, memory
leaks and other unpleasantness can occur.
A large amount of the complexity arises from trying to handle errors late
in the process of mapping a VMA, which forms the basis of recently
observed issues with resource leaks and observable inconsistent state.
This series goes to great lengths to simplify how mmap_region() works and
to avoid unwinding errors late on in the process of setting up the VMA for
the new mapping, and equally avoids such operations occurring while the
VMA is in an inconsistent state.
The patches in this series comprise the minimal changes required to
resolve existing issues in mmap_region() error handling, in order that
they can be hotfixed and backported. There is additionally a follow up
series which goes further, separated out from the v1 series and sent and
updated separately.
This patch (of 5):
After an attempted mmap() fails, we are no longer in a situation where we
can safely interact with VMA hooks. This is currently not enforced,
meaning that we need complicated handling to ensure we do not incorrectly
call these hooks.
We can avoid the whole issue by treating the VMA as suspect the moment
that the file->f_ops->mmap() function reports an error by replacing
whatever VMA operations were installed with a dummy empty set of VMA
operations.
We do so through a new helper function internal to mm - mmap_file() -
which is both more logically named than the existing call_mmap() function
and correctly isolates handling of the vm_op reassignment to mm.
All the existing invocations of call_mmap() outside of mm are ultimately
nested within the call_mmap() from mm, which we now replace.
It is therefore safe to leave call_mmap() in place as a convenience
function (and to avoid churn). The invokers are:
ovl_file_operations -> mmap -> ovl_mmap() -> backing_file_mmap()
coda_file_operations -> mmap -> coda_file_mmap()
shm_file_operations -> shm_mmap()
shm_file_operations_huge -> shm_mmap()
dma_buf_fops -> dma_buf_mmap_internal -> i915_dmabuf_ops
-> i915_gem_dmabuf_mmap()
None of these callers interact with vm_ops or mappings in a problematic
way on error, quickly exiting out.

Recent changes are putting more pressure on THP deferred split queues:
under load revealing long-standing races, causing list_del corruptions,
"Bad page state"s and worse (I keep BUGs in both of those, so usually
don't get to see how badly they end up without). The relevant recent
changes being 6.8's mTHP, 6.10's mTHP swapout, and 6.12's mTHP swapin,
improved swap allocation, and underused THP splitting.
Before fixing locking: rename misleading folio_undo_large_rmappable(),
which does not undo large_rmappable, to folio_unqueue_deferred_split(),
which is what it does. But that and its out-of-line __callee are mm
internals of very limited usability: add comment and WARN_ON_ONCEs to
check usage; and return a bool to say if a deferred split was unqueued,
which can then be used in WARN_ON_ONCEs around safety checks (sparing
callers the arcane conditionals in __folio_unqueue_deferred_split()).
Just omit the folio_unqueue_deferred_split() from free_unref_folios(), all
of whose callers now call it beforehand (and if any forget then bad_page()
will tell) - except for its caller put_pages_list(), which itself no
longer has any callers (and will be deleted separately).
Swapout: mem_cgroup_swapout() has been resetting folio->memcg_data 0
without checking and unqueueing a THP folio from deferred split list;
which is unfortunate, since the split_queue_lock depends on the memcg
(when memcg is enabled); so swapout has been unqueueing such THPs later,
when freeing the folio, using the pgdat's lock instead: potentially
corrupting the memcg's list. __remove_mapping() has frozen refcount to 0
here, so no problem with calling folio_unqueue_deferred_split() before
resetting memcg_data.
That goes back to 5.4 commit 87eaceb3faa5 ("mm: thp: make deferred split
shrinker memcg aware"): which included a check on swapcache before adding
to deferred queue, but no check on deferred queue before adding THP to
swapcache. That worked fine with the usual sequence of events in reclaim
(though there were a couple of rare ways in which a THP on deferred queue
could have been swapped out), but 6.12 commit dafff3f4c850 ("mm: split
underused THPs") avoids splitting underused THPs in reclaim, which makes
swapcache THPs on deferred queue commonplace.
Keep the check on swapcache before adding to deferred queue? Yes: it is
no longer essential, but preserves the existing behaviour, and is likely
to be a worthwhile optimization (vmstat showed much more traffic on the
queue under swapping load if the check was removed); update its comment.
Memcg-v1 move (deprecated): mem_cgroup_move_account() has been changing
folio->memcg_data without checking and unqueueing a THP folio from the
deferred list, sometimes corrupting "from" memcg's list, like swapout.
Refcount is non-zero here, so folio_unqueue_deferred_split() can only be
used in a WARN_ON_ONCE to validate the fix, which must be done earlier:
mem_cgroup_move_charge_pte_range() first try to split the THP (splitting
of course unqueues), or skip it if that fails. Not ideal, but moving
charge has been requested, and khugepaged should repair the THP later:
nobody wants new custom unqueueing code just for this deprecated case.
The 87eaceb3faa5 commit did have the code to move from one deferred list
to another (but was not conscious of its unsafety while refcount non-0);
but that was removed by 5.6 commit fac0516b5534 ("mm: thp: don't need care
deferred split queue in memcg charge move path"), which argued that the
existence of a PMD mapping guarantees that the THP cannot be on a deferred
list. As above, false in rare cases, and now commonly false.
Backport to 6.11 should be straightforward. Earlier backports must take
care that other _deferred_list fixes and dependencies are included. There
is not a strong case for backports, but they can fix cornercases.

Some callers of vmf_anon_prepare() may not want us to release the per-VMA
lock ourselves. Rename vmf_anon_prepare() to __vmf_anon_prepare() and let
the callers drop the lock when desired.
Also, make vmf_anon_prepare() a wrapper that releases the per-VMA lock
itself for any callers that don't care.
This is in preparation to fix this bug reported by syzbot:

Patch series "Increase the number of bits available in page_type".
Kent wants more than 16 bits in page_type, so I resurrected this old patch
and expanded it a bit. It's a bit more efficient than our current scheme
(1 4-byte insn vs 3 insns of 13 bytes total) to test a single page type.
This patch (of 4):
An upcoming patch will convert page type from being a bitfield to a
single byte, so we will not be able to use %pG to print the page type
any more. The printing of the symbolic name will be restored in that
patch.

Replace can_modify_mm_madv() with a single vma variant, and associated
checks in madvise.
While we're at it, also invert the order of checks in:
if (unlikely(is_ro_anon(vma) && !can_modify_vma(vma))
Checking if we can modify the vma itself (through vm_flags) is certainly
cheaper than is_ro_anon() due to arch_vma_access_permitted() looking at
e.g pkeys registers (with extra branches) in some architectures.
This patch allows for partial madvise success when finding a sealed VMA,
which historically has been allowed in Linux.

Zhiguo reported that swap release could be a serious bottleneck during
process exits[1]. With mTHP, we have the opportunity to batch free swaps.
Thanks to the work of Chris and Kairui[2], I was able to achieve this
optimization with minimal code changes by building on their efforts.
If swap_count is 1, which is likely true as most anon memory are private,
we can free all contiguous swap slots all together.
Ran the below test program for measuring the bandwidth of munmap
using zRAM and 64KiB mTHP:
#include <sys/mman.h>
#include <sys/time.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
unsigned long long tv_to_ms(struct timeval tv)
{
return tv.tv_sec * 1000 + tv.tv_usec / 1000;
}
main()
{
struct timeval tv_b, tv_e;
int i;
#define SIZE 1024*1024*1024
void *p = mmap(NULL, SIZE, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0);
if (!p) {
perror("fail to get memory");
exit(-1);
}
madvise(p, SIZE, MADV_HUGEPAGE);
memset(p, 0x11, SIZE); /* write to get mem */
madvise(p, SIZE, MADV_PAGEOUT);
gettimeofday(&tv_b, NULL);
munmap(p, SIZE);
gettimeofday(&tv_e, NULL);
printf("munmap in bandwidth: %ld bytes/ms\n",
SIZE/(tv_to_ms(tv_e) - tv_to_ms(tv_b)));
}
The result is as below (munmap bandwidth):
mm-unstable mm-unstable-with-patch
round1 21053761 63161283
round2 21053761 63161283
round3 21053761 63161283
round4 20648881 67108864
round5 20648881 67108864
munmap bandwidth becomes 3X faster.

do_numa_page() and do_huge_pmd_numa_page() share a lot of common code. To
reduce redundancy, move common code to numa_migrate_prep() and rename the

Now do_huge_pmd_numa_page() also checks shared folios to set TNF_SHARED

This patch introduces vma.c and moves internal core VMA manipulation
functions to this file from mmap.c.
This allows us to isolate VMA functionality in a single place such that we
can create userspace testing code that invokes this functionality in an
environment where we can implement simple unit tests of core
functionality.
This patch ensures that core VMA functionality is explicitly marked as
such by its presence in mm/vma.h.
It also places the header includes required by vma.c in vma_internal.h,
which is simply imported by vma.c. This makes the VMA functionality
testable, as userland testing code can simply stub out functionality as
required.

The vma_shrink() and vma_expand() functions are internal VMA manipulation
functions which we ought to abstract for use outside of memory management
code.
To achieve this, we replace shift_arg_pages() in fs/exec.c with an
invocation of a new relocate_vma_down() function implemented in mm/mmap.c,
which enables us to also move move_page_tables() and vma_iter_prev_range()
to internal.h.
The purpose of doing this is to isolate key VMA manipulation functions in
order that we can both abstract them and later render them easily
testable.

Per the analysis done by yangge, when starting the SEV virtual machine, it
will call pin_user_pages_fast(..., FOLL_LONGTERM, ...) to pin the memory.
But the page is in CMA area, so fast GUP will fail then fallback to the
slow path due to the longterm pinnalbe check in try_grab_folio().
The slow path will try to pin the pages then migrate them out of CMA area.
But the slow path also uses try_grab_folio() to pin the page, it will
also fail due to the same check then the above warning is triggered.
In addition, the try_grab_folio() is supposed to be used in fast path and
it elevates folio refcount by using add ref unless zero. We are guaranteed
to have at least one stable reference in slow path, so the simple atomic add
could be used. The performance difference should be trivial, but the
misuse may be confusing and misleading.
Redefined try_grab_folio() to try_grab_folio_fast(), and try_grab_page()
to try_grab_folio(), and use them in the proper paths. This solves both
the abuse and the kernel warning.
The proper naming makes their usecase more clear and should prevent from
abusing in the future.

Folios of order <= 1 are not in deferred list, the check of order is added
into folio_undo_large_rmappable() from commit 8897277acfef ("mm: support
order-1 folios in the page cache"), but there is a repeated check for
small folio (order 0) during each call of the
folio_undo_large_rmappable(), so only keep folio_order() check inside the
function.
In addition, move all the checks into header file to save a function call
for non-large-rmappable or empty deferred_list folio.

Patch series "mm/memory_hotplug: use PageOffline() instead of
PageReserved() for !ZONE_DEVICE".
This can be a considered a long-overdue follow-up to some parts of [1].
The patches are based on [2], but they are not strictly required -- just
makes it clearer why we can use adjust_managed_page_count() for memory
hotplug without going into details about highmem.
We stop initializing pages with PageReserved() in memory hotplug code --
except when dealing with ZONE_DEVICE for now. Instead, we use
PageOffline(): all pages are initialized to PageOffline() when onlining a
memory section, and only the ones actually getting exposed to the
system/page allocator will get PageOffline cleared.
This way, we enlighten memory hotplug more about PageOffline() pages and
can cleanup some hacks we have in virtio-mem code.
What about ZONE_DEVICE? PageOffline() is wrong, but we might just stop
using PageReserved() for them later by simply checking for
is_zone_device_page() at suitable places. That will be a separate patch
set / proposal.
This primarily affects virtio-mem, HV-balloon and XEN balloon. I only
briefly tested with virtio-mem, which benefits most from these cleanups.

This patch (of 3):
In preparation for further changes, let's teach __free_pages_core() about
the differences of memory hotplug handling.
Move the memory hotplug specific handling from generic_online_page() to
__free_pages_core(), use adjust_managed_page_count() on the memory hotplug
path, and spell out why memory freed via memblock cannot currently use
adjust_managed_page_count().

The alloc_demote_folio can also be used for general migration including
both demotion and promotion so it'd be better to rename it from
alloc_demote_folio to alloc_migrate_folio.

Patch series "DAMON based tiered memory management for CXL memory", v6.
Introduction
============
With the advent of CXL/PCIe attached DRAM, which will be called simply as
CXL memory in this cover letter, some systems are becoming more
heterogeneous having memory systems with different latency and bandwidth
characteristics. They are usually handled as different NUMA nodes in
separate memory tiers and CXL memory is used as slow tiers because of its
protocol overhead compared to local DRAM.
In this kind of systems, we need to be careful placing memory pages on
proper NUMA nodes based on the memory access frequency. Otherwise, some
frequently accessed pages might reside on slow tiers and it makes
performance degradation unexpectedly. Moreover, the memory access
patterns can be changed at runtime.
To handle this problem, we need a way to monitor the memory access
patterns and migrate pages based on their access temperature. The
DAMON(Data Access MONitor) framework and its DAMOS(DAMON-based Operation
Schemes) can be useful features for monitoring and migrating pages. DAMOS
provides multiple actions based on DAMON monitoring results and it can be
used for proactive reclaim, which means swapping cold pages out with
DAMOS_PAGEOUT action, but it doesn't support migration actions such as
demotion and promotion between tiered memory nodes.
This series supports two new DAMOS actions; DAMOS_MIGRATE_HOT for
promotion from slow tiers and DAMOS_MIGRATE_COLD for demotion from fast
tiers. This prevents hot pages from being stuck on slow tiers, which
makes performance degradation and cold pages can be proactively demoted to
slow tiers so that the system can increase the chance to allocate more hot
pages to fast tiers.
The DAMON provides various tuning knobs but we found that the proactive
demotion for cold pages is especially useful when the system is running
out of memory on its fast tier nodes.
Our evaluation result shows that it reduces the performance slowdown
compared to the default memory policy from 11% to 3~5% when the system
runs under high memory pressure on its fast tier DRAM nodes.
DAMON configuration
===================
The specific DAMON configuration doesn't have to be in the scope of this
patch series, but some rough idea is better to be shared to explain the
evaluation result.
The DAMON provides many knobs for fine tuning but its configuration file
is generated by HMSDK[3]. It includes gen_config.py script that generates
a json file with the full config of DAMON knobs and it creates multiple
kdamonds for each NUMA node when the DAMON is enabled so that it can run
hot/cold based migration for tiered memory.
Evaluation Workload
===================
The performance evaluation is done with redis[4], which is a widely used
in-memory database and the memory access patterns are generated via
YCSB[5]. We have measured two different workloads with zipfian and latest
distributions but their configs are slightly modified to make memory usage
higher and execution time longer for better evaluation.
The idea of evaluation using these migrate_{hot,cold} actions covers
system-wide memory management rather than partitioning hot/cold pages of a
single workload. The default memory allocation policy creates pages to
the fast tier DRAM node first, then allocates newly created pages to the
slow tier CXL node when the DRAM node has insufficient free space. Once
the page allocation is done then those pages never move between NUMA
nodes. It's not true when using numa balancing, but it is not the scope
of this DAMON based tiered memory management support.
If the working set of redis can be fit fully into the DRAM node, then the
redis will access the fast DRAM only. Since the performance of DRAM only
is faster than partially accessing CXL memory in slow tiers, this
environment is not useful to evaluate this patch series.
To make pages of redis be distributed across fast DRAM node and slow CXL
node to evaluate our migrate_{hot,cold} actions, we pre-allocate some cold
memory externally using mmap and memset before launching redis-server. We
assumed that there are enough amount of cold memory in datacenters as
TMO[6] and TPP[7] papers mentioned.
The evaluation sequence is as follows.
1. Turn on DAMON with DAMOS_MIGRATE_COLD action for DRAM node and
DAMOS_MIGRATE_HOT action for CXL node. It demotes cold pages on DRAM
node and promotes hot pages on CXL node in a regular interval.
2. Allocate a huge block of cold memory by calling mmap and memset at
the fast tier DRAM node, then make the process sleep to make the fast
tier has insufficient space for redis-server.
3. Launch redis-server and load prebaked snapshot image, dump.rdb. The
redis-server consumes 52GB of anon pages and 33GB of file pages, but
due to the cold memory allocated at 2, it fails allocating the entire
memory of redis-server on the fast tier DRAM node so it partially
allocates the remaining on the slow tier CXL node. The ratio of
DRAM:CXL depends on the size of the pre-allocated cold memory.
4. Run YCSB to make zipfian or latest distribution of memory accesses to
redis-server, then measure its execution time when it's completed.
5. Repeat 4 over 50 times to measure the average execution time for each
run.
6. Increase the cold memory size then repeat goes to 2.
For each test at 4 took about a minute so repeating it 50 times almost
took about 1 hour for each test with a specific cold memory from 440GB to
500GB in 10GB increments for each evaluation. So it took about more than
10 hours for both zipfian and latest workloads to get the entire
evaluation results. Repeating the same test set multiple times doesn't
show much difference so I think it might be enough to make the result
reliable.
Evaluation Results
==================
All the result values are normalized to DRAM-only execution time because
the workload cannot be faster than DRAM-only unless the workload hits the
peak bandwidth but our redis test doesn't go beyond the bandwidth limit.
So the DRAM-only execution time is the ideal result without affected by
the gap between DRAM and CXL performance difference. The NUMA node
environment is as follows.
node0 - local DRAM, 512GB with a CPU socket (fast tier)
node1 - disabled
node2 - CXL DRAM, 96GB, no CPU attached (slow tier)
The following is the result of generating zipfian distribution to
redis-server and the numbers are averaged by 50 times of execution.
1. YCSB zipfian distribution read only workload
memory pressure with cold memory on node0 with 512GB of local DRAM.
====================+================================================+=========
| cold memory occupied by mmap and memset |
| 0G 440G 450G 460G 470G 480G 490G 500G |
====================+================================================+=========

CXL-only | 51.4 - - - - - - - | 51.4
default | - 0.6 10.6 20.5 30.5 40.5 47.6 50.4 | 28.7
DAMON tiered | - 0.6 0.5 0.4 0.7 0.8 7.1 5.6 | 2.2
DAMON lazy | - 0.5 3.0 4.5 5.4 6.4 9.4 9.1 | 5.5
====================+================================================+=========
Each test result is based on the execution environment as follows.
DRAM-only: redis-server uses only local DRAM memory.
CXL-only: redis-server uses only CXL memory.
default: default memory policy(MPOL_DEFAULT).
numa balancing disabled.
DAMON tiered: DAMON enabled with DAMOS_MIGRATE_COLD for DRAM
nodes and DAMOS_MIGRATE_HOT for CXL nodes.
DAMON lazy: same as DAMON tiered, but turn on DAMON just
before making memory access request via YCSB.
The above result shows the "default" execution time goes up as the size of
cold memory is increased from 440G to 500G because the more cold memory
used, the more CXL memory is used for the target redis workload and this
makes the execution time increase.
However, "DAMON tiered" and other DAMON results show less slowdown because
the DAMOS_MIGRATE_COLD action at DRAM node proactively demotes
pre-allocated cold memory to CXL node and this free space at DRAM
increases more chance to allocate hot or warm pages of redis-server to
fast DRAM node. Moreover, DAMOS_MIGRATE_HOT action at CXL node also
promotes hot pages of redis-server to DRAM node actively.
As a result, it makes more memory of redis-server stay in DRAM node
compared to "default" memory policy and this makes the performance
improvement.
Please note that the result numbers of "DAMON tiered" and "DAMON lazy" at
500G are marked with * stars, which means their test results are replaced
with reproduced tests that didn't have OOM issue.
That was needed because sometimes the test processes get OOM when DRAM has
insufficient space. The DAMOS_MIGRATE_HOT doesn't kick reclaim but just
gives up migration when there is not enough space at DRAM side. The
problem happens when there is competition between normal allocation and
migration and the migration is done before normal allocation, then the
completely unrelated normal allocation can trigger reclaim, which incurs
OOM.
Because of this issue, I have also tested more cases with
"demotion_enabled" flag enabled to make such reclaim doesn't trigger OOM,
but just demote reclaimed pages. The following test results show more
tests with "kswapd" marked.
2. YCSB zipfian distribution read only workload (with demotion_enabled true)
memory pressure with cold memory on node0 with 512GB of local DRAM.

DAMON tiered kswapd | - 0.0 0.0 0.4 0.5 0.1 0.8 1.0 | 0.4
DAMON lazy kswapd | - 4.2 4.6 5.3 1.7 6.8 8.1 5.8 | 5.2
====================+================================================+=========
Each test result is based on the exeuction environment as follows.
DAMON tiered: same as before
DAMON lazy: same as before
DAMON tiered kswapd: same as DAMON tiered, but turn on
/sys/kernel/mm/numa/demotion_enabled to make
kswapd or direct reclaim does demotion.
DAMON lazy kswapd: same as DAMON lazy, but turn on
/sys/kernel/mm/numa/demotion_enabled to make
kswapd or direct reclaim does demotion.
The "DAMON tiered kswapd" and "DAMON lazy kswapd" didn't trigger OOM at
all unlike other tests because kswapd and direct reclaim from DRAM node
can demote reclaimed pages to CXL node independently from DAMON actions
and their results are slightly better than without having
"demotion_enabled".
In summary, the evaluation results show that DAMON memory management with
DAMOS_MIGRATE_{HOT,COLD} actions reduces the performance slowdown compared
to the "default" memory policy from 11% to 3~5% when the system runs with
high memory pressure on its fast tier DRAM nodes.
Having these DAMOS_MIGRATE_HOT and DAMOS_MIGRATE_COLD actions can make
tiered memory systems run more efficiently under high memory pressures.
This patch (of 7):
The alloc_demote_folio can be used out of vmscan.c so it'd be better to
remove static keyword from it.

There could arise a necessity to obtain the first pte_t from a swap pte_t
located in the middle. For instance, this may occur within the context of
do_swap_page(), where a page fault can potentially occur in any PTE of a
large folio. To address this, the following patch introduces
pte_move_swp_offset(), a function capable of bidirectional movement by a
specified delta argument. Consequently, pte_next_swp_offset() will
directly invoke it with delta = 1.

Execs of dynamically linked binaries at 20-ish cores are bottlenecked on
the i_mmap_rwsem semaphore, while the biggest singular contributor is
free_pgd_range inducing the lock acquire back-to-back for all consecutive
mappings of a given file.
Tracing the count of said acquires while building the kernel shows:
[1, 2) 799579 |@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@|
[2, 3) 0 | |
[3, 4) 3009 | |
[4, 5) 3009 | |
[5, 6) 326442 |@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ |
So in particular there were 326442 opportunities to coalesce 5 acquires
into 1.
Doing so increases execs per second by 4% (~50k to ~52k) when running
the benchmark linked below.
The lock remains the main bottleneck, I have not looked at other spots
yet.
Bench can be found here:
http://apollo.backplane.com/DFlyMisc/doexec.c
$ cc -O2 -o shared-doexec doexec.c
$ ./shared-doexec $(nproc)
Note this particular test makes sure binaries are separate, but the
loader is shared.

There was insufficient review and no agreement that this is the right
approach.
There are serious flaws with the implementation that make processes using
mlock() not even work with simple fork() [1] and we get reliable crashes
when rebooting.
Further, simply because we might be unmapping a single PTE of a large
mlocked folio, we shouldn't zero out the whole folio.
... especially because the code can also *corrupt* urelated memory because
kernel_init_pages(page, folio_nr_pages(folio));
Could end up writing outside of the actual folio if we work with a tail
page.
Let's revert it. Once there is agreement that this is the right approach,
the issues were fixed and there was reasonable review and proper testing,
we can consider it again.

The new mseal() is an syscall on 64 bit CPU, and with following signature:
int mseal(void addr, size_t len, unsigned long flags)
addr/len: memory range.
flags: reserved.
mseal() blocks following operations for the given memory range.
1> Unmapping, moving to another location, and shrinking the size,
via munmap() and mremap(), can leave an empty space, therefore can
be replaced with a VMA with a new set of attributes.
2> Moving or expanding a different VMA into the current location,
via mremap().
3> Modifying a VMA via mmap(MAP_FIXED).
4> Size expansion, via mremap(), does not appear to pose any specific
risks to sealed VMAs. It is included anyway because the use case is
unclear. In any case, users can rely on merging to expand a sealed VMA.
5> mprotect() and pkey_mprotect().
6> Some destructive madvice() behaviors (e.g. MADV_DONTNEED) for anonymous
memory, when users don't have write permission to the memory. Those
behaviors can alter region contents by discarding pages, effectively a
memset(0) for anonymous memory.

Let's track the mapcount of large folios in a single value. The mapcount
of a large folio currently corresponds to the sum of the entire mapcount
and all page mapcounts.
This sum is what we actually want to know in folio_mapcount() and it is
also sufficient for implementing folio_mapped().
With PTE-mapped THP becoming more important and more widely used, we want
to avoid looping over all pages of a folio just to obtain the mapcount of
large folios. The comment "In the common case, avoid the loop when no
pages mapped by PTE" in folio_total_mapcount() does no longer hold for
mTHP that are always mapped by PTE.
Further, we are planning on using folio_mapcount() more frequently, and
might even want to remove page mapcounts for large folios in some kernel
configs. Therefore, allow for reading the mapcount of large folios
efficiently and atomically without looping over any pages.
Maintain the mapcount also for hugetlb pages for simplicity. Use the new
mapcount to implement folio_mapcount() and folio_mapped(). Make
page_mapped() simply call folio_mapped(). We can now get rid of
folio_large_is_mapped().
_nr_pages_mapped is now only used in rmap code and for debugging purposes.
Keep folio_nr_pages_mapped() around, but document that its use should be
limited to rmap internals and debugging purposes.
This change implies one additional atomic add/sub whenever
mapping/unmapping (parts of) a large folio.
As we now batch RMAP operations for PTE-mapped THP during fork(), during
unmap/zap, and when PTE-remapping a PMD-mapped THP, and we adjust the
large mapcount for a PTE batch only once, the added overhead in the common
case is small. Only when unmapping individual pages of a large folio
(e.g., during COW), the overhead might be bigger in comparison, but it's
essentially one additional atomic operation.
Note that before the new mapcount would overflow, already our refcount
would overflow: each mapping requires a folio reference. Extend the
focumentation of folio_mapcount().

Rework madvise_cold_or_pageout_pte_range() to avoid splitting any large
folio that is fully and contiguously mapped in the pageout/cold vm range.
This change means that large folios will be maintained all the way to swap
storage. This both improves performance during swap-out, by eliding the
cost of splitting the folio, and sets us up nicely for maintaining the
large folio when it is swapped back in (to be covered in a separate
series).
Folios that are not fully mapped in the target range are still split, but
note that behavior is changed so that if the split fails for any reason
(folio locked, shared, etc) we now leave it as is and move to the next pte
in the range and continue work on the proceeding folios. Previously any
failure of this sort would cause the entire operation to give up and no
folios mapped at higher addresses were paged out or made cold. Given
large folios are becoming more common, this old behavior would have likely
lead to wasted opportunities.
While we are at it, change the code that clears young from the ptes to use
ptep_test_and_clear_young(), via the new mkold_ptes() batch helper
function. This is more efficent than get_and_clear/modify/set, especially
for contpte mappings on arm64, where the old approach would require
unfolding/refolding and the new approach can be done in place.

Now that we no longer have a convenient flag in the cluster to determine
if a folio is large, free_swap_and_cache() will take a reference and lock
a large folio much more often, which could lead to contention and (e.g.)
failure to split large folios, etc.
Let's solve that problem by batch freeing swap and cache with a new
function, free_swap_and_cache_nr(), to free a contiguous range of swap
entries together. This allows us to first drop a reference to each swap
slot before we try to release the cache folio. This means we only try to
release the folio once, only taking the reference and lock once - much
better than the previous 512 times for the 2M THP case.
Contiguous swap entries are gathered in zap_pte_range() and
madvise_free_pte_range() in a similar way to how present ptes are already
gathered in zap_pte_range().
While we are at it, let's simplify by converting the return type of both
functions to void. The return value was used only by zap_pte_range() to
print a bad pte, and was ignored by everyone else, so the extra reporting
wasn't exactly guaranteed. We will still get the warning with most of the
information from get_swap_device(). With the batch version, we wouldn't
know which pte was bad anyway so could print the wrong one.

Implements the "init_mlocked_on_free" boot option. When this boot option
is enabled, any mlock'ed pages are zeroed on free. If
the pages are munlock'ed beforehand, no initialization takes place.
This boot option is meant to combat the performance hit of
"init_on_free" as reported in commit 6471384af2a6 ("mm: security:
introduce init_on_alloc=1 and init_on_free=1 boot options"). With
"init_mlocked_on_free=1" only relevant data is freed while everything
else is left untouched by the kernel. Correspondingly, this patch
introduces no performance hit for unmapping non-mlock'ed memory. The
unmapping overhead for purely mlocked memory was measured to be
approximately 13%. Realistically, most systems mlock only a fraction of
the total memory so the real-world system overhead should be close to
zero.
Optimally, userspace programs clear any key material or other
confidential memory before exit and munlock the according memory
regions. If a program crashes, userspace key managers fail to do this
job. Accordingly, no munlock operations are performed so the data is
caught and zeroed by the kernel. Should the program not crash, all
memory will ideally be munlocked so no overhead is caused.
CONFIG_INIT_MLOCKED_ON_FREE_DEFAULT_ON can be set to enable
"init_mlocked_on_free" by default.

PageAnonExclusive() used to forbid tail pages for hugetlbfs, as that used
to be called mostly in hugetlb specific paths and the head page was
guaranteed.
As we move forward towards merging hugetlb paths into generic mm, we may
start to pass in tail hugetlb pages (when with cont-pte/cont-pmd huge
pages) for such check. Allow it to properly fetch the head, in which case
the anon-exclusiveness of the head will always represents the tail page.
There's already a sign of it when we look at the GUP-fast which already
contain the hugetlb processing altogether: we used to have a specific
commit 5805192c7b72 ("mm/gup: handle cont-PTE hugetlb pages correctly in
gup_must_unshare() via GUP-fast") covering that area. Now with this more
generic change, that can also go away.

Replace pmd_trans_huge() with pmd_leaf() to also cover pmd_huge() as long
as enabled.
FOLL_TOUCH and FOLL_SPLIT_PMD only apply to THP, not yet huge.
Since now follow_trans_huge_pmd() can process hugetlb pages, renaming it
into follow_huge_pmd() to match what it does. Move it into gup.c so not
depend on CONFIG_THP.
When at it, move the ctx->page_mask setup into follow_huge_pmd(), only set
it when the page is valid. It was not a bug to set it before even if GUP
failed (page==NULL), because follow_page_mask() callers always ignores
page_mask if so. But doing so makes the code cleaner.

Teach follow_pud_mask() to be able to handle normal PUD pages like
hugetlb.
Rename follow_devmap_pud() to follow_huge_pud() so that it can process
either huge devmap or hugetlb. Move it out of TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE_PUD
and and huge_memory.c (which relies on CONFIG_THP). Switch to pud_leaf()
to detect both cases in the slow gup.
In the new follow_huge_pud(), taking care of possible CoR for hugetlb if
necessary. touch_pud() needs to be moved out of huge_memory.c to be
accessable from gup.c even if !THP.
Since at it, optimize the non-present check by adding a pud_present()
early check before taking the pgtable lock, failing the follow_page()
early if PUD is not present: that is required by both devmap or hugetlb.
Use pud_huge() to also cover the pud_devmap() case.
One more trivial thing to mention is, introduce "pud_t pud" in the code
paths along the way, so the code doesn't dereference *pudp multiple time.
Not only because that looks less straightforward, but also because if the
dereference really happened, it's not clear whether there can be race to
see different *pudp values when it's being modified at the same time.
Setting ctx->page_mask properly for a PUD entry. As a side effect, this
patch should also be able to optimize devmap GUP on PUD to be able to jump
over the whole PUD range, but not yet verified. Hugetlb already can do so
prior to this patch.

Commit d0637c505f8a1 ("arm64: enable THP_SWAP for arm64") brings up
THP_SWAP on ARM64, but it doesn't enable THP_SWP on hardware with MTE as
the MTE code works with the assumption tags save/restore is always
handling a folio with only one page.
The limitation should be removed as more and more ARM64 SoCs have this
feature. Co-existence of MTE and THP_SWAP becomes more and more
important.
This patch makes MTE tags saving support large folios, then we don't need
to split large folios into base pages for swapping out on ARM64 SoCs with
MTE any more.
arch_prepare_to_swap() should take folio rather than page as parameter
because we support THP swap-out as a whole. It saves tags for all pages
in a large folio.
As now we are restoring tags based-on folio, in arch_swap_restore(), we
may increase some extra loops and early-exitings while refaulting a large
folio which is still in swapcache in do_swap_page(). In case a large
folio has nr pages, do_swap_page() will only set the PTE of the particular
page which is causing the page fault. Thus do_swap_page() runs nr times,
and each time, arch_swap_restore() will loop nr times for those subpages
in the folio. So right now the algorithmic complexity becomes O(nr^2).
Once we support mapping large folios in do_swap_page(), extra loops and
early-exitings will decrease while not being completely removed as a large
folio might get partially tagged in corner cases such as, 1. a large
folio in swapcache can be partially unmapped, thus, MTE tags for the
unmapped pages will be invalidated; 2. users might use mprotect() to set
MTEs on a part of a large folio.
arch_thp_swp_supported() is dropped since ARM64 MTE was the only one who
needed it.

Patch series "make the hugetlb migration strategy consistent", v2.
As discussed in previous thread [1], there is an inconsistency when
handling hugetlb migration. When handling the migration of freed hugetlb,
it prevents fallback to other NUMA nodes in
alloc_and_dissolve_hugetlb_folio(). However, when dealing with in-use
hugetlb, it allows fallback to other NUMA nodes in
alloc_hugetlb_folio_nodemask(), which can break the per-node hugetlb pool
and might result in unexpected failures when node bound workloads doesn't
get what is asssumed available.
This patchset tries to make the hugetlb migration strategy more clear
and consistent. Please find details in each patch.

Free page accounting currently happens a bit too high up the call stack,
where it has to deal with guard pages, compaction capturing, block
stealing and even page isolation. This is subtle and fragile, and makes
it difficult to hack on the code.
Now that type violations on the freelists have been fixed, push the
accounting down to where pages enter and leave the freelist.

Page isolation currently sets MIGRATE_ISOLATE on a block, then drops
zone->lock and scans the block for straddling buddies to split up.
Because this happens non-atomically wrt the page allocator, it's possible
for allocations to get a buddy whose first block is a regular pcp
migratetype but whose tail is isolated. This means that in certain cases
memory can still be allocated after isolation. It will also trigger the
freelist type hygiene warnings in subsequent patches.

isolate_single_pageblock()
set_migratetype_isolate(tail)
lock zone->lock
move_freepages_block(tail) // nop

WARN(head_mt != tail_mt)
start_pfn = ALIGN_DOWN(MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES)
for (pfn = start_pfn, pfn < end_pfn)
if (PageBuddy())
split_free_page(head)
Introduce a variant of move_freepages_block() provided by the allocator
specifically for page isolation; it moves free pages, converts the block,
and handles the splitting of straddling buddies while holding zone->lock.
The allocator knows that pageblocks and buddies are always naturally
aligned, which means that buddies can only straddle blocks if they're
actually >pageblock_order. This means the search-and-split part can be
simplified compared to what page isolation used to do.
Also tighten up the page isolation code around the expectations of which
pages can be large, and how they are freed.
Based on extensive discussions with and invaluable input from Zi Yan.

Now that prep_compound_page() initialises folio->_deferred_list,
folio_prep_large_rmappable()'s only purpose is to set the large_rmappable
flag, so inline it into the two callers. Take the opportunity to convert
the large_rmappable definition from PAGEFLAG to FOLIO_FLAG and remove the
existance of PageTestLargeRmappable and friends.

Patch series "Various significant MM patches".
These patches all interact in annoying ways which make it tricky to send
them out in any way other than a big batch, even though there's not really
an overarching theme to connect them.
The big effects of this patch series are:
- folio_test_hugetlb() becomes reliable, even when called without a
page reference
- We free up PG_slab, and we could always use more page flags
- We no longer need to check PageSlab before calling page_mapcount()
This patch (of 9):
For compound pages which are at least order-2 (and hence have a
deferred_list), initialise it and then we can check at free that the page
is not part of a deferred list. We recently found this useful to rule out
a source of corruption.

Patch series "Allow migrate on protnone reference with MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY
policy:, v4.
This patchset is to optimize the cross-socket memory access with
MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY policy.
To test this patch we ran the following test on a 3 node system.
Node 0 - 2GB - Tier 1
Node 1 - 11GB - Tier 1
Node 6 - 10GB - Tier 2
Below changes are made to memcached to set the memory policy,
It select Node0 and Node1 as preferred nodes.
#include <numaif.h>
#include <numa.h>
unsigned long nodemask;
int ret;
nodemask = 0x03;
ret = set_mempolicy(MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY | MPOL_F_NUMA_BALANCING,
&nodemask, 10);
/* If MPOL_F_NUMA_BALANCING isn't supported,
* fall back to MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY */
if (ret < 0 && errno == EINVAL){
printf("set mem policy normal\n");
ret = set_mempolicy(MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY, &nodemask, 10);
}
if (ret < 0) {
perror("Failed to call set_mempolicy");
exit(-1);
}
Test Procedure:
===============
1. Make sure memory tiring and demotion are enabled.
2. Start memcached.
# ./memcached -b 100000 -m 204800 -u root -c 1000000 -t 7
-d -s "/tmp/memcached.sock"
3. Run memtier_benchmark to store 3200000 keys.
#./memtier_benchmark -S "/tmp/memcached.sock" --protocol=memcache_binary
--threads=1 --pipeline=1 --ratio=1:0 --key-pattern=S:S --key-minimum=1
--key-maximum=3200000 -n allkeys -c 1 -R -x 1 -d 1024
4. Start a memory eater on node 0 and 1. This will demote all memcached
pages to node 6.
5. Make sure all the memcached pages got demoted to lower tier by reading
/proc/<memcaced PID>/numa_maps.
# cat /proc/2771/numa_maps
---
default anon=1009 dirty=1009 active=0 N6=1009 kernelpagesize_kB=64
default anon=1009 dirty=1009 active=0 N6=1009 kernelpagesize_kB=64
---
6. Kill memory eater.
7. Read the pgpromote_success counter.
8. Start reading the keys by running memtier_benchmark.
#./memtier_benchmark -S "/tmp/memcached.sock" --protocol=memcache_binary
--pipeline=1 --distinct-client-seed --ratio=0:3 --key-pattern=R:R
--key-minimum=1 --key-maximum=3200000 -n allkeys
--threads=64 -c 1 -R -x 6
9. Read the pgpromote_success counter.

Test Result Analysis:
=====================
1. With patch we could observe pages are getting promoted.

performance has increased more than 50%.
Ops/sec without fix - 305792.03
Ops/sec with fix - 521942.24
This patch (of 2):
Instead of using 'cpu_to_node()', we use 'numa_node_id()', which is
quicker. smp_processor_id is guaranteed to be stable in the
'mpol_misplaced()' function because it is called with ptl held.
lockdep_assert_held was added to ensure that.
No functional change in this patch.

Darrick reports that in some cases where pread() would fail with -EIO and
mmap()+access would generate a SIGBUS signal, MADV_POPULATE_READ /
MADV_POPULATE_WRITE will keep retrying forever and not fail with -EFAULT.
While the madvise() call can be interrupted by a signal, this is not the
desired behavior. MADV_POPULATE_READ / MADV_POPULATE_WRITE should behave
like page faults in that case: fail and not retry forever.
A reproducer can be found at [1].
The reason is that __get_user_pages(), as called by
faultin_vma_page_range(), will not handle VM_FAULT_RETRY in a proper way:
it will simply return 0 when VM_FAULT_RETRY happened, making
madvise_populate()->faultin_vma_page_range() retry again and again, never
setting FOLL_TRIED->FAULT_FLAG_TRIED for __get_user_pages().
__get_user_pages_locked() does what we want, but duplicating that logic in
faultin_vma_page_range() feels wrong.
So let's use __get_user_pages_locked() instead, that will detect
VM_FAULT_RETRY and set FOLL_TRIED when retrying, making the fault handler
return VM_FAULT_SIGBUS (VM_FAULT_ERROR) at some point, propagating -EFAULT
from faultin_page() to __get_user_pages(), all the way to
madvise_populate().
But, there is an issue: __get_user_pages_locked() will end up re-taking
the MM lock and then __get_user_pages() will do another VMA lookup. In
the meantime, the VMA layout could have changed and we'd fail with
different error codes than we'd want to.
As __get_user_pages() will currently do a new VMA lookup either way, let
it do the VMA handling in a different way, controlled by a new
FOLL_MADV_POPULATE flag, effectively moving these checks from
madvise_populate() + faultin_page_range() in there.
With this change, Darricks reproducer properly fails with -EFAULT, as
documented for MADV_POPULATE_READ / MADV_POPULATE_WRITE.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- Sumanth Korikkar has taught s390 to allocate hotplug-time page frames
from hotplugged memory rather than only from main memory. Series
"implement "memmap on memory" feature on s390".
- More folio conversions from Matthew Wilcox in the series
"Convert memcontrol charge moving to use folios"
"mm: convert mm counter to take a folio"
- Chengming Zhou has optimized zswap's rbtree locking, providing
significant reductions in system time and modest but measurable
reductions in overall runtimes. The series is "mm/zswap: optimize the
scalability of zswap rb-tree".
- Chengming Zhou has also provided the series "mm/zswap: optimize zswap
lru list" which provides measurable runtime benefits in some
swap-intensive situations.
- And Chengming Zhou further optimizes zswap in the series "mm/zswap:
optimize for dynamic zswap_pools". Measured improvements are modest.
- zswap cleanups and simplifications from Yosry Ahmed in the series
"mm: zswap: simplify zswap_swapoff()".
- In the series "Add DAX ABI for memmap_on_memory", Vishal Verma has
contributed several DAX cleanups as well as adding a sysfs tunable to
control the memmap_on_memory setting when the dax device is
hotplugged as system memory.
- Johannes Weiner has added the large series "mm: zswap: cleanups",
which does that.
- More DAMON work from SeongJae Park in the series
"mm/damon: make DAMON debugfs interface deprecation unignorable"
"selftests/damon: add more tests for core functionalities and corner cases"
"Docs/mm/damon: misc readability improvements"
"mm/damon: let DAMOS feeds and tame/auto-tune itself"
- In the series "mm/mempolicy: weighted interleave mempolicy and sysfs
extension" Rakie Kim has developed a new mempolicy interleaving
policy wherein we allocate memory across nodes in a weighted fashion
rather than uniformly. This is beneficial in heterogeneous memory
environments appearing with CXL.
- Christophe Leroy has contributed some cleanup and consolidation work
against the ARM pagetable dumping code in the series "mm: ptdump:
Refactor CONFIG_DEBUG_WX and check_wx_pages debugfs attribute".
- Luis Chamberlain has added some additional xarray selftesting in the
series "test_xarray: advanced API multi-index tests".
- Muhammad Usama Anjum has reworked the selftest code to make its
human-readable output conform to the TAP ("Test Anything Protocol")
format. Amongst other things, this opens up the use of third-party
tools to parse and process out selftesting results.
- Ryan Roberts has added fork()-time PTE batching of THP ptes in the
series "mm/memory: optimize fork() with PTE-mapped THP". Mainly
targeted at arm64, this significantly speeds up fork() when the
process has a large number of pte-mapped folios.
- David Hildenbrand also gets in on the THP pte batching game in his
series "mm/memory: optimize unmap/zap with PTE-mapped THP". It
implements batching during munmap() and other pte teardown
situations. The microbenchmark improvements are nice.
- And in the series "Transparent Contiguous PTEs for User Mappings"
Ryan Roberts further utilizes arm's pte's contiguous bit ("contpte
mappings"). Kernel build times on arm64 improved nicely. Ryan's
series "Address some contpte nits" provides some followup work.
- In the series "mm/hugetlb: Restore the reservation" Breno Leitao has
fixed an obscure hugetlb race which was causing unnecessary page
faults. He has also added a reproducer under the selftest code.
- In the series "selftests/mm: Output cleanups for the compaction
test", Mark Brown did what the title claims.
- Kinsey Ho has added the series "mm/mglru: code cleanup and
refactoring".
- Even more zswap material from Nhat Pham. The series "fix and extend
zswap kselftests" does as claimed.
- In the series "Introduce cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() to fix DAX
regression" Mathieu Desnoyers has cleaned up and fixed rather a mess
in our handling of DAX on archiecctures which have virtually aliasing
data caches. The arm architecture is the main beneficiary.
- Lokesh Gidra's series "per-vma locks in userfaultfd" provides
dramatic improvements in worst-case mmap_lock hold times during
certain userfaultfd operations.
- Some page_owner enhancements and maintenance work from Oscar Salvador
in his series
"page_owner: print stacks and their outstanding allocations"
"page_owner: Fixup and cleanup"
- Uladzislau Rezki has contributed some vmalloc scalability
improvements in his series "Mitigate a vmap lock contention". It
realizes a 12x improvement for a certain microbenchmark.
- Some kexec/crash cleanup work from Baoquan He in the series "Split
crash out from kexec and clean up related config items".
- Some zsmalloc maintenance work from Chengming Zhou in the series
"mm/zsmalloc: fix and optimize objects/page migration"
"mm/zsmalloc: some cleanup for get/set_zspage_mapping()"
- Zi Yan has taught the MM to perform compaction on folios larger than
order=0. This a step along the path to implementaton of the merging
of large anonymous folios. The series is named "Enable >0 order folio
memory compaction".
- Christoph Hellwig has done quite a lot of cleanup work in the
pagecache writeback code in his series "convert write_cache_pages()
to an iterator".
- Some modest hugetlb cleanups and speedups in Vishal Moola's series
"Handle hugetlb faults under the VMA lock".
- Zi Yan has changed the page splitting code so we can split huge pages
into sizes other than order-0 to better utilize large folios. The
series is named "Split a folio to any lower order folios".
- David Hildenbrand has contributed the series "mm: remove
total_mapcount()", a cleanup.
- Matthew Wilcox has sought to improve the performance of bulk memory
freeing in his series "Rearrange batched folio freeing".
- Gang Li's series "hugetlb: parallelize hugetlb page init on boot"
provides large improvements in bootup times on large machines which
are configured to use large numbers of hugetlb pages.
- Matthew Wilcox's series "PageFlags cleanups" does that.
- Qi Zheng's series "minor fixes and supplement for ptdesc" does that
also. S390 is affected.
- Cleanups to our pagemap utility functions from Peter Xu in his series
"mm/treewide: Replace pXd_large() with pXd_leaf()".
- Nico Pache has fixed a few things with our hugepage selftests in his
series "selftests/mm: Improve Hugepage Test Handling in MM
Selftests".
- Also, of course, many singleton patches to many things. Please see
the individual changelogs for details.

madvise, mprotect and some others might need folio_pte_batch to check if a
range of PTEs are completely mapped to a large folio with contiguous
physical addresses. Let's make it available in mm/internal.h.
While at it, add proper kernel doc and sanity-check more input parameters
using two additional VM_WARN_ON_FOLIO().

alloc_contig_migrate_range has every information to be able to understand
big contiguous allocation latency. For example, how many pages are
migrated, how many times they were needed to unmap from page tables.
This patch adds the trace event to collect the allocation statistics. In
the field, it was quite useful to understand CMA allocation latency.

Iterate over a folio_batch rather than a linked list. This is easier for
the CPU to prefetch and has a batch count naturally built in so we don't
need to track it. Again, this lowers the maximum lock hold time from
32 folios to 15, but I do not expect this to have a significant effect.

Folios of order 1 have no space to store the deferred list. This is not a
problem for the page cache as file-backed folios are never placed on the
deferred list. All we need to do is prevent the core MM from touching the
deferred list for order 1 folios and remove the code which prevented us
from allocating order 1 folios.

While doing MADV_PAGEOUT, the current code will clear PTE young so that
vmscan won't read young flags to allow the reclamation of madvised folios
to go ahead. It seems we can do it by directly ignoring references, thus
we can remove tlb flush in madvise and rmap overhead in vmscan.
Regarding the side effect, in the original code, if a parallel thread runs
side by side to access the madvised memory with the thread doing madvise,
folios will get a chance to be re-activated by vmscan (though the time gap
is actually quite small since checking PTEs is done immediately after
clearing PTEs young). But with this patch, they will still be reclaimed.
But this behaviour doing PAGEOUT and doing access at the same time is
quite silly like DoS. So probably, we don't need to care. Or ignoring
the new access during the quite small time gap is even better.
For DAMON's DAMOS_PAGEOUT based on physical address region, we still keep
its behaviour as is since a physical address might be mapped by multiple
processes. MADV_PAGEOUT based on virtual address is actually much more
aggressive on reclamation. To untouch paddr's DAMOS_PAGEOUT, we simply
pass ignore_references as false in reclaim_pages().
A microbench as below has shown 6% decrement on the latency of
MADV_PAGEOUT,
#define PGSIZE 4096
main()
{
int i;
#define SIZE 512*1024*1024
volatile long *p = mmap(NULL, SIZE, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0);
for (i = 0; i < SIZE/sizeof(long); i += PGSIZE / sizeof(long))
p[i] = 0x11;
madvise(p, SIZE, MADV_PAGEOUT);
}

Patch series "Handle hugetlb faults under the VMA lock", v2.
It is generally safe to handle hugetlb faults under the VMA lock. The
only time this is unsafe is when no anon_vma has been allocated to this
vma yet, so we can use vmf_anon_prepare() instead of anon_vma_prepare() to
bailout if necessary. This should only happen for the first hugetlb page
in the vma.
Additionally, this patchset begins to use struct vm_fault within
hugetlb_fault(). This works towards cleaning up hugetlb code, and should
significantly reduce the number of arguments passed to functions.
The last patch in this series may cause ltp hugemmap10 to "fail". This is
because vmf_anon_prepare() may bailout with no anon_vma under the VMA lock
after allocating a folio for the hugepage. In free_huge_folio(), this
folio is completely freed on bailout iff there is a surplus of hugetlb
pages. This will remove a folio off the freelist and decrement the number
of hugepages while ltp expects these counters to remain unchanged on
failure. The rest of the ltp testcases pass.
This patch (of 2):
In order to handle hugetlb faults under the VMA lock, hugetlb can use
vmf_anon_prepare() to ensure we can safely prepare an anon_vma. Change it
to be a non-static function so it can be used within hugetlb as well.

Before last commit, memory compaction only migrates order-0 folios and
skips >0 order folios. Last commit splits all >0 order folios during
compaction. This commit migrates >0 order folios during compaction by
keeping isolated free pages at their original size without splitting them
into order-0 pages and using them directly during migration process.
What is different from the prior implementation:
1. All isolated free pages are kept in a NR_PAGE_ORDERS array of page
lists, where each page list stores free pages in the same order.
2. All free pages are not post_alloc_hook() processed nor buddy pages,
although their orders are stored in first page's private like buddy
pages.
3. During migration, in new page allocation time (i.e., in
compaction_alloc()), free pages are then processed by post_alloc_hook().
When migration fails and a new page is returned (i.e., in
compaction_free()), free pages are restored by reversing the
post_alloc_hook() operations using newly added
free_pages_prepare_fpi_none().
Step 3 is done for a latter optimization that splitting and/or merging
free pages during compaction becomes easier.
Note: without splitting free pages, compaction can end prematurely due to
migration will return -ENOMEM even if there is free pages. This happens
when no order-0 free page exist and compaction_alloc() return NULL.

We removed all "bool compound" and RMAP_COMPOUND parameters. Let's remove
the remaining "compound" terminology by making COMPOUND_MAPPED match the
"folio->_entire_mapcount" terminology, renaming it to ENTIRELY_MAPPED.
ENTIRELY_MAPPED is only used when the whole folio is mapped using a single
page table entry (e.g., a single PMD mapping a PMD-sized THP). For now,
we don't support mapping any THP bigger than that, so ENTIRELY_MAPPED only
applies to PMD-mapped PMD-sized THP only.

Let's convert it like we converted all the other rmap functions. Don't
introduce folio_try_share_anon_rmap_ptes() for now, as we don't have a
user that wants rmap batching in sight. Pretty easy to add later.
All users are easy to convert -- only ksm.c doesn't use folios yet but
that is left for future work -- so let's just do it in a single shot.
While at it, turn the BUG_ON into a WARN_ON_ONCE.
Note that page_try_share_anon_rmap() so far didn't care about pte/pmd
mappings (no compound parameter). We're changing that so we can perform
better sanity checks and make the code actually more readable/consistent.
For example, __folio_rmap_sanity_checks() will make sure that a PMD range
actually falls completely into the folio.

The maple tree node is overloaded to keep status as well as the active
node. This, unfortunately, results in a re-walk on underflow or overflow.
Since the maple state has room, the status can be placed in its own enum
in the structure. Once an underflow/overflow is detected, certain modes
can restore the status to active and others may need to re-walk just that
one node to see the entry.
The status being an enum has the benefit of detecting unhandled status in
switch statements.

__mas_set_range() was created to shortcut resetting the maple state and a
debug check was added to the caller (the vma iterator) to ensure the
internal maple state remains safe to use. Move the debug check from the
vma iterator into the maple tree itself so other users do not incorrectly
use the advanced maple state modification.
Fallout from this change include a large amount of debug setup needed to
be moved to earlier in the header, and the maple_tree.h radix-tree test
code needed to move the inclusion of the header to after the atomic
define. None of those changes have functional changes.

Patch series "Fix fault handler's handling of poisoned tail pages".
Since introducing the ability to have large folios in the page cache, it's
been possible to have a hwpoisoned tail page returned from the fault
handler. We handle this situation poorly; failing to remove the affected
page from use.
This isn't a minimal patch to fix it, it's a full conversion of all the
code surrounding it.
This patch (of 6):
invalidate_inode_page() does very little beyond calling
mapping_evict_folio(). Move the check for mapping being NULL into
mapping_evict_folio() and make it available to the rest of the MM for use
in the next few patches.

In dup_mmap(), using __mt_dup() to duplicate the old maple tree and then
directly replacing the entries of VMAs in the new maple tree can result in
better performance. __mt_dup() uses DFS pre-order to duplicate the maple
tree, so it is efficient.
The average time complexity of __mt_dup() is O(n), where n is the number
of VMAs. The proof of the time complexity is provided in the commit log
that introduces __mt_dup(). After duplicating the maple tree, each
element is traversed and replaced (ignoring the cases of deletion, which
are rare). Since it is only a replacement operation for each element,
this process is also O(n).
Analyzing the exact time complexity of the previous algorithm is
challenging because each insertion can involve appending to a node,
pushing data to adjacent nodes, or even splitting nodes. The frequency of
each action is difficult to calculate. The worst-case scenario for a
single insertion is when the tree undergoes splitting at every level. If
we consider each insertion as the worst-case scenario, we can determine
that the upper bound of the time complexity is O(n*log(n)), although this
is a loose upper bound. However, based on the test data, it appears that
the actual time complexity is likely to be O(n).
As the entire maple tree is duplicated using __mt_dup(), if dup_mmap()
fails, there will be a portion of VMAs that have not been duplicated in
the maple tree. To handle this, we mark the failure point with
XA_ZERO_ENTRY. In exit_mmap(), if this marker is encountered, stop
releasing VMAs that have not been duplicated after this point.
There is a "spawn" in byte-unixbench[1], which can be used to test the
performance of fork(). I modified it slightly to make it work with
different number of VMAs.
Below are the test results. The first row shows the number of VMAs. The
second and third rows show the number of fork() calls per ten seconds,
corresponding to next-20231006 and the this patchset, respectively. The
test results were obtained with CPU binding to avoid scheduler load
balancing that could cause unstable results. There are still some
fluctuations in the test results, but at least they are better than the
original performance.

mremap uses vma_merge() in the case where a VMA needs to be extended. This
can be significantly simplified and abstracted.
This makes it far easier to understand what the actual function is doing,
avoids future mistakes in use of the confusing vma_merge() function and
importantly allows us to make future changes to how vma_merge() is
implemented by knowing explicitly which merge cases each invocation uses.
Note that in the mremap() extend case, we perform this merge only when
old_len == vma->vm_end - addr. The extension_start, i.e. the start of the
extended portion of the VMA is equal to addr + old_len, i.e. vma->vm_end.
With this refactoring, vma_merge() is no longer required anywhere except
mm/mmap.c, so mark it static.

Now the common pattern of - attempting a merge via vma_merge() and should
this fail splitting VMAs via split_vma() - has been abstracted, the former
can be placed into mm/internal.h and the latter made static.
In addition, the split_vma() nommu variant also need not be exported.

Rather than check the result of test-and-clear, just check that we have

it's good enough (and enables the next patch).

If large folio is in the range of VM_LOCKED VMA, it should be mlocked to
avoid being picked by page reclaim. Which may split the large folio and
then mlock each pages again.
Mlock this kind of large folio to prevent them being picked by page
reclaim.
For the large folio which cross the boundary of VM_LOCKED VMA or not fully
mapped to VM_LOCKED VMA, we'd better not to mlock it. So if the system is
under memory pressure, this kind of large folio will be split and the
pages ouf of VM_LOCKED VMA can be reclaimed.
Ideally, for large folio, we should mlock it when the large folio is fully
mapped to VMA and munlock it if any page are unmampped from VMA. But it's
not easy to detect whether the large folio is fully mapped to VMA in some
cases (like add/remove rmap). So we update mlock_vma_folio() and
munlock_vma_folio() to mlock/munlock the folio according to vma->vm_flags.
Let caller to decide whether they should call these two functions.
For add rmap, only mlock normal 4K folio and postpone large folio handling
to page reclaim phase. It is possible to reuse page table iterator to
detect whether folio is fully mapped or not during page reclaim phase.
For remove rmap, invoke munlock_vma_folio() to munlock folio unconditionly
because rmap makes folio not fully mapped to VMA.

Patch series "support large folio for mlock", v3.
Yu mentioned at [1] about the mlock() can't be applied to large folio.
I leant the related code and here is my understanding:
- For RLIMIT_MEMLOCK related, there is no problem. Because the
RLIMIT_MEMLOCK statistics is not related underneath page. That means
underneath page mlock or munlock doesn't impact the RLIMIT_MEMLOCK
statistics collection which is always correct.
- For keeping the page in RAM, there is no problem either. At least,
during try_to_unmap_one(), once detect the VMA has VM_LOCKED bit set in
vm_flags, the folio will be kept whatever the folio is mlocked or not.
So the function of mlock for large folio works. But it's not optimized
because the page reclaim needs scan these large folio and may split them.
This series identified the large folio for mlock to four types:
- The large folio is in VM_LOCKED range and fully mapped to the
range
- The large folio is in the VM_LOCKED range but not fully mapped to
the range
- The large folio cross VM_LOCKED VMA boundary
- The large folio cross last level page table boundary
For the first type, we mlock large folio so page reclaim will skip it.
For the second/third type, we don't mlock large folio. As the pages not
mapped to VM_LOACKED range are mapped to none VM_LOCKED range, if system
is in memory pressure situation, the large folio can be picked by page
reclaim and split. Then the pages not mapped to VM_LOCKED range can be
reclaimed.
For the fourth type, we don't mlock large folio because locking one page
table lock can't prevent the part in another last level page table being
unmapped. Thanks to Ryan for pointing this out.
To check whether the folio is fully mapped to the range, PTEs needs be
checked to see whether the page of folio is associated. Which needs take
page table lock and is heavy operation. So far, the only place needs this
check is madvise and page reclaim. These functions already have their own
PTE iterator.
patch1 introduce API to check whether large folio is in VMA range.
patch2 make page reclaim/mlock_vma_folio/munlock_vma_folio support
large folio mlock/munlock.
patch3 make mlock/munlock syscall support large folio.
Yu also mentioned a race which can make folio unevictable after munlock
during RFC v2 discussion [3]:
We decided that race issue didn't block this series based on:
- That race issue was not introduced by this series
- We had a looks-ok fix for that race issue. Need to wait
for mlock_count fixing patch as Yosry Ahmed suggested [4]

This patch (of 3):
folio_in_range() will be used to check whether the folio is mapped to
specific VMA and whether the mapping address of folio is in the range.
Also a helper function folio_within_vma() to check whether folio
is in the range of vma based on folio_in_range().

The new boot flow when it comes to initialization of gigantic pages is as
follows:
- At boot time, for a gigantic page during __alloc_bootmem_hugepage, the
region after the first struct page is marked as noinit.
- This results in only the first struct page to be initialized in
reserve_bootmem_region. As the tail struct pages are not initialized at
this point, there can be a significant saving in boot time if HVO
succeeds later on.
- Later on in the boot, the head page is prepped and the first
HUGETLB_VMEMMAP_RESERVE_SIZE / sizeof(struct page) - 1 tail struct pages
are initialized.
- HVO is attempted. If it is not successful, then the rest of the tail
struct pages are initialized. If it is successful, no more tail struct
pages need to be initialized saving significant boot time.
The WARN_ON for increased ref count in gather_bootmem_prealloc was changed
to a VM_BUG_ON. This is OK as there should be no speculative references
this early in boot process. The VM_BUG_ON's are there just in case such
code is introduced.

Patch series "use refcount+RCU method to implement lockless slab shrink",
v6.
1. Background
=============
We used to implement the lockless slab shrink with SRCU [1], but then kernel
test robot reported -88.8% regression in stress-ng.ramfs.ops_per_sec test
case [2], so we reverted it [3].
This patch series aims to re-implement the lockless slab shrink using the
refcount+RCU method proposed by Dave Chinner [4].
[1]. https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20230313112819.38938-1-zhengqi.arch@bytedance.com/
[2]. https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/202305230837.db2c233f-yujie.liu@intel.com/
[3]. https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230609081518.3039120-1-qi.zheng@linux.dev/
[4]. https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/ZIJhou1d55d4H1s0@dread.disaster.area/
2. Implementation
=================
Currently, the shrinker instances can be divided into the following three types:
a) global shrinker instance statically defined in the kernel, such as
workingset_shadow_shrinker.
b) global shrinker instance statically defined in the kernel modules, such as
mmu_shrinker in x86.
c) shrinker instance embedded in other structures.
For case a, the memory of shrinker instance is never freed. For case b, the
memory of shrinker instance will be freed after synchronize_rcu() when the
module is unloaded. For case c, the memory of shrinker instance will be freed
along with the structure it is embedded in.
In preparation for implementing lockless slab shrink, we need to dynamically
allocate those shrinker instances in case c, then the memory can be dynamically
freed alone by calling kfree_rcu().
This patchset adds the following new APIs for dynamically allocating shrinker,
and add a private_data field to struct shrinker to record and get the original
embedded structure.
1. shrinker_alloc()
2. shrinker_register()
3. shrinker_free()
In order to simplify shrinker-related APIs and make shrinker more independent of
other kernel mechanisms, this patchset uses the above APIs to convert all
shrinkers (including case a and b) to dynamically allocated, and then remove all
existing APIs. This will also have another advantage mentioned by Dave Chinner:
```
The other advantage of this is that it will break all the existing out of tree
code and third party modules using the old API and will no longer work with a
kernel using lockless slab shrinkers. They need to break (both at the source and
binary levels) to stop bad things from happening due to using uncoverted
shrinkers in the new setup.
```
Then we free the shrinker by calling call_rcu(), and use rcu_read_{lock,unlock}()
to ensure that the shrinker instance is valid. And the shrinker::refcount
mechanism ensures that the shrinker instance will not be run again after
unregistration. So the structure that records the pointer of shrinker instance
can be safely freed without waiting for the RCU read-side critical section.
In this way, while we implement the lockless slab shrink, we don't need to be
blocked in unregister_shrinker() to wait RCU read-side critical section.
PATCH 1: introduce new APIs
PATCH 2~38: convert all shrinnkers to use new APIs
PATCH 39: remove old APIs
PATCH 40~41: some cleanups and preparations
PATCH 42-43: implement the lockless slab shrink
PATCH 44~45: convert shrinker_rwsem to mutex
3. Testing
==========
3.1 slab shrink stress test
---------------------------
We can reproduce the down_read_trylock() hotspot through the following script:
```
DIR="/root/shrinker/memcg/mnt"
do_create()
{
mkdir -p /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/test
echo 4G > /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/test/memory.limit_in_bytes
for i in `seq 0 $1`;
do
mkdir -p /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/test/$i;
echo $$ > /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/test/$i/cgroup.procs;
mkdir -p $DIR/$i;
done
}
do_mount()
{
for i in `seq $1 $2`;
do
mount -t tmpfs $i $DIR/$i;
done
}
do_touch()
{
for i in `seq $1 $2`;
do
echo $$ > /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/test/$i/cgroup.procs;
dd if=/dev/zero of=$DIR/$i/file$i bs=1M count=1 &
done
}
case "$1" in
touch)
do_touch $2 $3
;;
test)
do_create 4000
do_mount 0 4000
do_touch 0 3000
;;
*)
exit 1
;;
esac
```
Save the above script, then run test and touch commands. Then we can use the
following perf command to view hotspots:
perf top -U -F 999
1) Before applying this patchset:
33.15% [kernel] [k] down_read_trylock
25.38% [kernel] [k] shrink_slab
21.75% [kernel] [k] up_read
4.45% [kernel] [k] _find_next_bit
2.27% [kernel] [k] do_shrink_slab
1.80% [kernel] [k] intel_idle_irq
1.79% [kernel] [k] shrink_lruvec
0.67% [kernel] [k] xas_descend
0.41% [kernel] [k] mem_cgroup_iter
0.40% [kernel] [k] shrink_node
0.38% [kernel] [k] list_lru_count_one
2) After applying this patchset:
64.56% [kernel] [k] shrink_slab
12.18% [kernel] [k] do_shrink_slab
3.30% [kernel] [k] __rcu_read_unlock
2.61% [kernel] [k] shrink_lruvec
2.49% [kernel] [k] __rcu_read_lock
1.93% [kernel] [k] intel_idle_irq
0.89% [kernel] [k] shrink_node
0.81% [kernel] [k] mem_cgroup_iter
0.77% [kernel] [k] mem_cgroup_calculate_protection
0.66% [kernel] [k] list_lru_count_one
We can see that the first perf hotspot becomes shrink_slab, which is what we
expect.
3.2 registration and unregistration stress test
-----------------------------------------------
Run the command below to test:
stress-ng --timeout 60 --times --verify --metrics-brief --ramfs 9 &
1) Before applying this patchset:
setting to a 60 second run per stressor
dispatching hogs: 9 ramfs
stressor bogo ops real time usr time sys time bogo ops/s bogo ops/s
(secs) (secs) (secs) (real time) (usr+sys time)

287.12s total time ( 19.93%)
load average: 7.12 2.99 1.15
successful run completed in 60.01s (1 min, 0.01 secs)
2) After applying this patchset:
setting to a 60 second run per stressor
dispatching hogs: 9 ramfs
stressor bogo ops real time usr time sys time bogo ops/s bogo ops/s
(secs) (secs) (secs) (real time) (usr+sys time)

1440.33s available CPU time
8.12s user time ( 0.56%)
281.34s system time ( 19.53%)
289.46s total time ( 20.10%)
load average: 6.98 3.03 1.19
successful run completed in 60.01s (1 min, 0.01 secs)
We can see that the ops/s has hardly changed.
This patch (of 45):
Currently, the shrinker instances can be divided into the following three
types:
a) global shrinker instance statically defined in the kernel, such as
workingset_shadow_shrinker.
b) global shrinker instance statically defined in the kernel modules, such
as mmu_shrinker in x86.
c) shrinker instance embedded in other structures.
For case a, the memory of shrinker instance is never freed. For case b,
the memory of shrinker instance will be freed after synchronize_rcu() when
the module is unloaded. For case c, the memory of shrinker instance will
be freed along with the structure it is embedded in.
In preparation for implementing lockless slab shrink, we need to
dynamically allocate those shrinker instances in case c, then the memory
can be dynamically freed alone by calling kfree_rcu().
So this commit adds the following new APIs for dynamically allocating
shrinker, and add a private_data field to struct shrinker to record and
get the original embedded structure.
1. shrinker_alloc()
Used to allocate shrinker instance itself and related memory, it will
return a pointer to the shrinker instance on success and NULL on failure.
2. shrinker_register()
Used to register the shrinker instance, which is same as the current
register_shrinker_prepared().
3. shrinker_free()
Used to unregister (if needed) and free the shrinker instance.
In order to simplify shrinker-related APIs and make shrinker more
independent of other kernel mechanisms, subsequent submissions will use
the above API to convert all shrinkers (including case a and b) to
dynamically allocated, and then remove all existing APIs.
This will also have another advantage mentioned by Dave Chinner:
```
The other advantage of this is that it will break all the existing
out of tree code and third party modules using the old API and will
no longer work with a kernel using lockless slab shrinkers. They
need to break (both at the source and binary levels) to stop bad
things from happening due to using unconverted shrinkers in the new
setup.

Patch series "cleanups for lockless slab shrink", v4.
This series is some cleanups for lockless slab shrink.
This patch (of 4):
The following functions are only used inside the mm subsystem, so it's
better to move their declarations to the mm/internal.h file.
1. shrinker_debugfs_add()
2. shrinker_debugfs_detach()
3. shrinker_debugfs_remove()

Pull x86 shadow stack support from Dave Hansen:
"This is the long awaited x86 shadow stack support, part of Intel's
Control-flow Enforcement Technology (CET).
CET consists of two related security features: shadow stacks and
indirect branch tracking. This series implements just the shadow stack
part of this feature, and just for userspace.
The main use case for shadow stack is providing protection against
return oriented programming attacks. It works by maintaining a
secondary (shadow) stack using a special memory type that has
protections against modification. When executing a CALL instruction,
the processor pushes the return address to both the normal stack and
to the special permission shadow stack. Upon RET, the processor pops
the shadow stack copy and compares it to the normal stack copy.
For more information, refer to the links below for the earlier
versions of this patch set"

Store the folio order in the low byte of the flags word in the first tail
page. This frees up the word that was being used to store the order and

Stored in the first tail page's flags, this flag replaces the destructor.
That removes the last of the destructors, so remove all references to
folio_dtor and compound_dtor.

Indirect calls are expensive, thanks to Spectre. Test for
TRANSHUGE_PAGE_DTOR and destroy the folio appropriately. Move the
free_compound_page() call into destroy_large_folio() to simplify later

For system with kernelcore=mirror enabled while no mirrored memory is
reported by efi. This could lead to kernel OOM during startup since all
memory beside zone DMA are in the movable zone and this prevents the
kernel to use it.
Zone DMA/DMA32 initialization is independent of mirrored memory and their
max pfn is set in zone_sizes_init(). Since kernel can fallback to zone
DMA/DMA32 if there is no memory in zone Normal, these zones are seen as
mirrored memory no mather their memory attributes are.
To solve this problem, disable kernelcore=mirror when there is no real
mirrored memory exists.

GUP-fast
In contrast to most other GUP code, GUP-fast common page table walking
code like gup_pte_range() also handles hugetlb pages. But in contrast to
other hugetlb page table walking code, it does not look at the hugetlb PTE
abstraction whereby we have only a single logical hugetlb PTE per hugetlb
page, even when using multiple cont-PTEs underneath -- which is for
example what huge_ptep_get() abstracts.
So when we have a hugetlb page that is mapped via cont-PTEs, GUP-fast
might stumble over a PTE that does not map the head page of a hugetlb page
-- not the first "head" PTE of such a cont mapping.
Logically, the whole hugetlb page is mapped (entire_mapcount == 1), but we
might end up calling gup_must_unshare() with a tail page of a hugetlb
page.
We only maintain a single PageAnonExclusive flag per hugetlb page (as
hugetlb pages cannot get partially COW-shared), stored for the head page.
That flag is clear for all tail pages.
So when gup_must_unshare() ends up calling PageAnonExclusive() with a tail
page of a hugetlb page:
1) With CONFIG_DEBUG_VM_PGFLAGS
Stumbles over the:
VM_BUG_ON_PGFLAGS(PageHuge(page) && !PageHead(page), page);
For example, when executing the COW selftests with 64k hugetlb pages on
arm64:

2) Without CONFIG_DEBUG_VM_PGFLAGS
Always detects "not exclusive" for passed tail pages and refuses to PIN
the tail pages R/O, as gup_must_unshare() == true. GUP-fast will fallback
to ordinary GUP. As ordinary GUP properly considers the logical hugetlb
PTE abstraction in hugetlb_follow_page_mask(), pinning the page will
succeed when looking at the PageAnonExclusive on the head page only.
So the only real effect of this is that with cont-PTE hugetlb pages, we'll
always fallback from GUP-fast to ordinary GUP when not working on the head
page, which ends up checking the head page and do the right thing.
Consequently, the cow selftests pass with cont-PTE hugetlb pages as well
without CONFIG_DEBUG_VM_PGFLAGS.
Note that this only applies to anon hugetlb pages that are mapped using
cont-PTEs: for example 64k hugetlb pages on a 4k arm64 kernel.
... and only when R/O-pinning (FOLL_PIN) such pages that are mapped into
the page table R/O using GUP-fast.
On production kernels (and even most debug kernels, that don't set
CONFIG_DEBUG_VM_PGFLAGS) this patch should theoretically not be required
to be backported. But of course, it does not hurt.

We shouldn't be using a GUP-internal helper if it can be avoided.
Similar to smaps_pte_entry() that uses vm_normal_page(), let's use
vm_normal_page_pmd() that similarly refuses to return the huge zeropage.
In contrast to follow_trans_huge_pmd(), vm_normal_page_pmd():
(1) Will always return the head page, not a tail page of a THP.
If we'd ever call smaps_account with a tail page while setting "compound
= true", we could be in trouble, because smaps_account() would look at
the memmap of unrelated pages.
If we're unlucky, that memmap does not exist at all. Before we removed
PG_doublemap, we could have triggered something similar as in
commit 24d7275ce279 ("fs/proc: task_mmu.c: don't read mapcount for
migration entry").
This can theoretically happen ever since commit ff9f47f6f00c ("mm: proc:
smaps_rollup: do not stall write attempts on mmap_lock"):
(a) We're in show_smaps_rollup() and processed a VMA
(b) We release the mmap lock in show_smaps_rollup() because it is
contended
(c) We merged that VMA with another VMA
(d) We collapsed a THP in that merged VMA at that position
If the end address of the original VMA falls into the middle of a THP
area, we would call smap_gather_stats() with a start address that falls
into a PMD-mapped THP. It's probably very rare to trigger when not
really forced.
(2) Will succeed on a is_pci_p2pdma_page(), like vm_normal_page()
Treat such PMDs here just like smaps_pte_entry() would treat such PTEs.
If such pages would be anonymous, we most certainly would want to
account them.
(3) Will skip over pmd_devmap(), like vm_normal_page() for pte_devmap()
As noted in vm_normal_page(), that is only for handling legacy ZONE_DEVICE
pages. So just like smaps_pte_entry(), we'll now also ignore such PMD
entries.
Especially, follow_pmd_mask() never ends up calling
follow_trans_huge_pmd() on pmd_devmap(). Instead it calls
follow_devmap_pmd() -- which will fail if neither FOLL_GET nor FOLL_PIN
is set.
So skipping pmd_devmap() pages seems to be the right thing to do.
(4) Will properly handle VM_MIXEDMAP/VM_PFNMAP, like vm_normal_page()
We won't be returning a memmap that should be ignored by core-mm, or
worse, a memmap that does not even exist. Note that while
walk_page_range() will skip VM_PFNMAP mappings, walk_page_vma() won't.
Most probably this case doesn't currently really happen on the PMD level,
otherwise we'd already be able to trigger kernel crashes when reading
smaps / smaps_rollup.
So most probably only (1) is relevant in practice as of now, but could only
cause trouble in extreme corner cases.
Let's move follow_trans_huge_pmd() to mm/internal.h to discourage future
reuse in wrong context.

The majority of the calls to munmap a vm range is within a single vma.
The maple tree is able to store a single entry at 0, with a size of 1 as
a pointer and avoid any allocations. Change do_vmi_align_munmap() to
store the VMAs being munmap()'ed into a tree indexed by the count. This
will leverage the ability to store the first entry without a node
allocation.
Storing the entries into a tree by the count and not the vma start and
end means changing the functions which iterate over the entries. Update
unmap_vmas() and free_pgtables() to take a maple state and a tree end
address to support this functionality.
Passing through the same maple state to unmap_vmas() and free_pgtables()
means the state needs to be reset between calls. This happens in the
static unmap_region() and exit_mmap().

Fscache has an optimisation by which reads from the cache are skipped
until we know that (a) there's data there to be read and (b) that data
isn't entirely covered by pages resident in the netfs pagecache. This is
done with two flags manipulated by fscache_note_page_release():
if (...
test_bit(FSCACHE_COOKIE_HAVE_DATA, &cookie->flags) &&
test_bit(FSCACHE_COOKIE_NO_DATA_TO_READ, &cookie->flags))
clear_bit(FSCACHE_COOKIE_NO_DATA_TO_READ, &cookie->flags);
where the NO_DATA_TO_READ flag causes cachefiles_prepare_read() to
indicate that netfslib should download from the server or clear the page
instead.
The fscache_note_page_release() function is intended to be called from
->releasepage() - but that only gets called if PG_private or PG_private_2
is set - and currently the former is at the discretion of the network
filesystem and the latter is only set whilst a page is being written to
the cache, so sometimes we miss clearing the optimisation.
Fix this by following Willy's suggestion[1] and adding an address_space
flag, AS_RELEASE_ALWAYS, that causes filemap_release_folio() to always call
->release_folio() if it's set, even if PG_private or PG_private_2 aren't
set.
Note that this would require folio_test_private() and page_has_private() to
become more complicated. To avoid that, in the places[*] where these are
used to conditionalise calls to filemap_release_folio() and
try_to_release_page(), the tests are removed the those functions just
jumped to unconditionally and the test is performed there.
[*] There are some exceptions in vmscan.c where the check guards more than
just a call to the releaser. I've added a function, folio_needs_release()
to wrap all the checks for that.
AS_RELEASE_ALWAYS should be set if a non-NULL cookie is obtained from
fscache and cleared in ->evict_inode() before truncate_inode_pages_final()
is called.
Additionally, the FSCACHE_COOKIE_NO_DATA_TO_READ flag needs to be cleared
and the optimisation cancelled if a cachefiles object already contains data
when we open it.

Patch series "mm, netfs, fscache: Stop read optimisation when folio
removed from pagecache", v7.
This fixes an optimisation in fscache whereby we don't read from the cache
for a particular file until we know that there's data there that we don't
have in the pagecache. The problem is that I'm no longer using PG_fscache
(aka PG_private_2) to indicate that the page is cached and so I don't get
a notification when a cached page is dropped from the pagecache.
The first patch merges some folio_has_private() and
filemap_release_folio() pairs and introduces a helper,
folio_needs_release(), to indicate if a release is required.
The second patch is the actual fix. Following Willy's suggestions[1], it
adds an AS_RELEASE_ALWAYS flag to an address_space that will make
filemap_release_folio() always call ->release_folio(), even if
PG_private/PG_private_2 aren't set. folio_needs_release() is altered to
add a check for this.
This patch (of 2):
Make filemap_release_folio() check folio_has_private(). Then, in most
cases, where a call to folio_has_private() is immediately followed by a
call to filemap_release_folio(), we can get rid of the test in the pair.
There are a couple of sites in mm/vscan.c that this can't so easily be
done. In shrink_folio_list(), there are actually three cases (something
different is done for incompletely invalidated buffers), but
filemap_release_folio() elides two of them.
In shrink_active_list(), we don't have have the folio lock yet, so the
check allows us to avoid locking the page unnecessarily.
A wrapper function to check if a folio needs release is provided for those
places that still need to do it in the mm/ directory. This will acquire
additional parts to the condition in a future patch.
After this, the only remaining caller of folio_has_private() outside of
mm/ is a check in fuse.

We don't use pagevecs for the LRU cache any more, and we don't know that
the failed invalidations were due to the folio being in an LRU cache. So
rename it to be more accurate.

folio_set_order(folio, 0) is used in kernel at two places
__destroy_compound_gigantic_folio and __prep_compound_gigantic_folio.
Currently, It is called to clear out the folio->_folio_nr_pages and
folio->_folio_order.
For __destroy_compound_gigantic_folio:
In past, folio_set_order(folio, 0) was needed because page->mapping used
to overlap with _folio_nr_pages and _folio_order. So if these fields were
left uncleared during freeing gigantic hugepages, they were causing
"BUG: bad page state" due to non-zero page->mapping. Now, After
Commit a01f43901cfb ("hugetlb: be sure to free demoted CMA pages to
CMA") page->mapping has explicitly been cleared out for tail pages. Also,
_folio_order and _folio_nr_pages no longer overlaps with page->mapping.
So, folio_set_order(folio, 0) can be removed from freeing gigantic
folio path (__destroy_compound_gigantic_folio).
Another place, folio_set_order(folio, 0) is called inside
__prep_compound_gigantic_folio during error path. Here,
folio_set_order(folio, 0) can also be removed if we move
folio_set_order(folio, order) after for loop.
The patch also moves _folio_set_head call in __prep_compound_gigantic_folio()
such that we avoid clearing them in the error path.
Also, as Mike pointed out:
"It would actually be better to move the calls _folio_set_head and
folio_set_order in __prep_compound_gigantic_folio() as suggested here. Why?
In the current code, the ref count on the 'head page' is still 1 (or more)
while those calls are made. So, someone could take a speculative ref on the
page BEFORE the tail pages are set up."
This way, folio_set_order(folio, 0) is no more needed. And it will also
helps removing the confusion of folio order being set to 0 (as _folio_order
field is part of first tail page).
Testing: I have run LTP tests, which all passes. and also I have written
the test in LTP which tests the bug caused by compound_nr and page->mapping
overlapping.
