Current call flow looks like this:
start_kernel
mm_core_init
mem_init
mem_init_print_info
rest_init
kernel_init
kernel_init_freeable
page_alloc_init_late
deferred_init_memmap
If CONFIG_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT, the time mem_init_print_info()
calls, pages are not totally initialized and freed to buddy.
This has one issue
* nr_free_pages() just contains partial free pages in the system,
which is not we expect.
Let's print the mem info after defer_init is done.
Also this would help changing totalram_pages accounting, since we plan
to move the accounting into __free_pages_core().

Setting 'limit' variable to 0 might seem like it means "no limit". But in
the memblock API, 0 actually means the 'MEMBLOCK_ALLOC_ACCESSIBLE' enum,
which limits the physical address range end based on
'memblock.current_limit'. This could be confusing.
Use the enum instead of 0 to make it clear.

Most of the work done in folio_start_writeback is reversed in
folio_end_writeback. For e.g. NR_WRITEBACK and NR_ZONE_WRITE_PENDING are
incremented in start_writeback and decremented in end_writeback. Calling
end_writeback immediately after start_writeback (separated by
folio_unlock) cancels the affect of most of the work done in start hence
can be removed.
There is some extra work done in folio_end_writeback, however it is
incorrect/not applicable to zswap:
- folio_end_writeback incorrectly increments NR_WRITTEN counter,
eventhough the pages aren't written to disk, hence this change
corrects this behaviour.
- folio_end_writeback calls folio_rotate_reclaimable, but that only
makes sense for async writeback pages, while for zswap pages are
synchronously reclaimed.

Commit [1] introduced IO polling support duding swapin to reduce swap read
latency for block devices that can be polled. However later commit [2]
removed polling support. Commit [3] removed the remnants of polling
support from read_swap_cache_async() and __read_swap_cache_async().
However, it left behind some remnants in swap_read_folio(), the
'synchronous' argument.
swap_read_folio() reads the folio synchronously if synchronous=true or if
SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO is set in swap_info_struct. The only caller that
passes synchronous=true is in do_swap_page() in the SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO
case.
Hence, the argument is redundant, it is only set to true when the swap
read would have been synchronous anyway. Remove it.

It looks rather weird that totalhigh_pages() returns an "unsigned long"

Let's return an "unsigned long" from nr_free_highpages() to be consistent.
While at it, use a plain "0" instead of a "0UL" in the !CONFIG_HIGHMEM
totalhigh_pages() implementation, to make these look alike as well.

Patch series "mm/highmem: don't track highmem pages manually".
Let's remove highmem special-casing from adjust_managed_page_count(), to
result in less confusion why memblock manually adjusts totalram_pages, and
__free_pages_core() only adjusts the zone's managed pages -- what about
the highmem pages that adjust_managed_page_count() updates?
Now, we only maintain totalram_pages and a zone's managed pages
independent of highmem support. We can derive the number of highmem pages
simply by looking at the relevant zone's managed pages. I don't think
there is any particular fast path that needs a maximum-efficient
totalhigh_pages() implementation.
Note that highmem memory is currently initialized using
free_highmem_page()->free_reserved_page(), not __free_pages_core(). In
the future we might want to also use __free_pages_core() to initialize
highmem memory, to make that less special, and consider moving
totalram_pages updates into __free_pages_core() [1], so we can just use
adjust_managed_page_count() in there as well.
Booting a simple kernel in QEMU reveals no highmem accounting change:
Before:
Memory: 3095448K/3145208K available (14802K kernel code, 2073K rwdata,
5000K rodata, 740K init, 556K bss, 49760K reserved, 0K cma-reserved,
2244488K highmem)

5000K rodata, 740K init, 556K bss, 49932K reserved, 0K cma-reserved,
2244488K highmem)

This patch (of 2):
Can we get rid of the highmem ifdef in adjust_managed_page_count()?
Likely yes: we don't have that many totalhigh_pages() users, and they all
don't seem to be very performance critical.
So let's implement totalhigh_pages() like nr_free_highpages(), collecting
information from all zones. This is now similar to what we do in
si_meminfo_node() to collect the per-node highmem page count.
In the common case (single node, 3-4 zones), we really shouldn't care. We
could optimize a bit further (only walk ZONE_HIGHMEM and ZONE_MOVABLE if
required), but there doesn't seem a real need for that.

After swapping out, we perform a swap-in operation. If we first read and
then write, we encounter a major fault in do_swap_page for reading, along
with additional minor faults in do_wp_page for writing. However, the
latter appears to be unnecessary and inefficient. Instead, we can
directly reuse in do_swap_page and completely eliminate the need for
do_wp_page.
This patch achieves that optimization specifically for exclusive folios.
The following microbenchmark demonstrates the significant reduction in
minor faults.

The call for memblock_phys_free() in try_remove_memory() does not balance
any call to memblock_alloc() (or memblock_reserve() for that matter).
There are no memblock_reserve() calls in mm/memory_hotplug.c, no memblock
allocations possible after mm_core_init(), and even if memblock_add_node()
called from add_memory_resource() would need to allocate memory, that
memory would ba allocated from slab.
The patch f9126ab924 ("memory-hotplug: fix wrong edge when hot add a new
node") that introduced that call to memblock_free() does not provide
adequate description why that was required and tinkering with memblock in
the context of memory hotplug on x86 seems bogus because x86 never kept
memblock after boot anyway.
Drop memblock_phys_free() call in try_remove_memory().

Commit 19eaf44954 adds multi-size THP (mTHP) for anonymous pages, that
can allow THP to be configured through the sysfs interface located at
'/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/hugepage-XXkb/enabled'.
However, the anonymous shmem will ignore the anonymous mTHP rule
configured through the sysfs interface, and can only use the PMD-mapped
THP, that is not reasonable. Users expect to apply the mTHP rule for all
anonymous pages, including the anonymous shmem, in order to enjoy the
benefits of mTHP. For example, lower latency than PMD-mapped THP, smaller
memory bloat than PMD-mapped THP, contiguous PTEs on ARM architecture to
reduce TLB miss etc. In addition, the mTHP interfaces can be extended to
support all shmem/tmpfs scenarios in the future, especially for the shmem
mmap() case.
The primary strategy is similar to supporting anonymous mTHP. Introduce a
new interface '/mm/transparent_hugepage/hugepage-XXkb/shmem_enabled',
which can have almost the same values as the top-level
'/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/shmem_enabled', with adding a new
additional "inherit" option and dropping the testing options 'force' and
'deny'. By default all sizes will be set to "never" except PMD size,
which is set to "inherit". This ensures backward compatibility with the
anonymous shmem enabled of the top level, meanwhile also allows
independent control of anonymous shmem enabled for each mTHP.

To support the use of mTHP with anonymous shmem, add a new sysfs interface
'shmem_enabled' in the '/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/hugepages-kB/'
directory for each mTHP to control whether shmem is enabled for that mTHP,
with a value similar to the top level 'shmem_enabled', which can be set
to: "always", "inherit (to inherit the top level setting)", "within_size",
"advise", "never". An 'inherit' option is added to ensure compatibility
with these global settings, and the options 'force' and 'deny' are
dropped, which are rather testing artifacts from the old ages.
By default, PMD-sized hugepages have enabled="inherit" and all other
hugepage sizes have enabled="never" for
'/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/hugepages-xxkB/shmem_enabled'.
In addition, if top level value is 'force', then only PMD-sized hugepages
have enabled="inherit", otherwise configuration will be failed and vice
versa. That means now we will avoid using non-PMD sized THP to override
the global huge allocation.

Patch series "add mTHP support for anonymous shmem", v5.
Anonymous pages have already been supported for multi-size (mTHP)
allocation through commit 19eaf44954, that can allow THP to be
configured through the sysfs interface located at
'/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/hugepage-XXkb/enabled'.
However, the anonymous shmem will ignore the anonymous mTHP rule
configured through the sysfs interface, and can only use the PMD-mapped
THP, that is not reasonable. Many implement anonymous page sharing
through mmap(MAP_SHARED | MAP_ANONYMOUS), especially in database usage
scenarios, therefore, users expect to apply an unified mTHP strategy for
anonymous pages, also including the anonymous shared pages, in order to
enjoy the benefits of mTHP. For example, lower latency than PMD-mapped
THP, smaller memory bloat than PMD-mapped THP, contiguous PTEs on ARM
architecture to reduce TLB miss etc.
As discussed in the bi-weekly MM meeting[1], the mTHP controls should
control all of shmem, not only anonymous shmem, but support will be added
iteratively. Therefore, this patch set starts with support for anonymous
shmem.
The primary strategy is similar to supporting anonymous mTHP. Introduce a
new interface '/mm/transparent_hugepage/hugepage-XXkb/shmem_enabled',
which can have almost the same values as the top-level
'/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/shmem_enabled', with adding a new
additional "inherit" option and dropping the testing options 'force' and
'deny'. By default all sizes will be set to "never" except PMD size,
which is set to "inherit". This ensures backward compatibility with the
anonymous shmem enabled of the top level, meanwhile also allows
independent control of anonymous shmem enabled for each mTHP.
Use the page fault latency tool to measure the performance of 1G anonymous shmem
with 32 threads on my machine environment with: ARM64 Architecture, 32 cores,
125G memory:
base: mm-unstable
user-time sys_time faults_per_sec_per_cpu faults_per_sec
0.04s 3.10s 83516.416 2669684.890
mm-unstable + patchset, anon shmem mTHP disabled
user-time sys_time faults_per_sec_per_cpu faults_per_sec
0.02s 3.14s 82936.359 2630746.027
mm-unstable + patchset, anon shmem 64K mTHP enabled
user-time sys_time faults_per_sec_per_cpu faults_per_sec
0.08s 0.31s 678630.231 17082522.495
From the data above, it is observed that the patchset has a minimal impact
when mTHP is not enabled (some fluctuations observed during testing).
When enabling 64K mTHP, there is a significant improvement of the page
fault latency.
[1] https://lore.kernel.org/all/f1783ff0-65bd-4b2b-8952-52b6822a0835@redhat.com/
This patch (of 6):
Add large folio mapping establishment support for finish_fault() as a
preparation, to support multi-size THP allocation of anonymous shmem pages
in the following patches.
Keep the same behavior (per-page fault) for non-anon shmem to avoid
inflating the RSS unintentionally, and we can discuss what size of mapping
to build when extending mTHP to control non-anon shmem in the future.

Patch series "mm,swap: cleanup VMA based swap readahead window
calculation".
When VMA based swap readahead is introduced in commit ec560175c0 ("mm,
swap: VMA based swap readahead"), "struct vma_swap_readahead" is defined
to describe the readahead window. Because we wanted to save the PTE

that it's better to use the fields of the struct directly. This can
simplify the code to improve the code readability. The line number of
source code reduces too.
A theoretical underflow issue and some related code cleanup is done in the
series too.
This patch (of 3):
In swap readahead window calculation, if the fault PFN is smaller than the
readahead window size, underflow may occurs. This is only possible in
theory, because the start of the virtual address space will not be used
for anonymous pages in practice. Even if underflow occurs, there will be
no functional bugs. In the worst cases, some swap entries may be swapped
in incorrectly and some pages may be allocate on the wrong nodes.
Anyway, we still needs to fix the issue via some underflow checking.

swap-in always occurs at the normal page granularity, i.e.,
folio_nr_pages() = 1. However, in reality, for large folios,
add_to_swap_cache() will invoke folio_ref_add(folio, nr). To accommodate
large folio swap-in, this patch eliminates this assumption.

Should do_swap_page() have the capability to directly map a large folio,
metadata restoration becomes necessary for a specified number of pages
denoted as nr. It's important to highlight that metadata restoration is
solely required by the SPARC platform, which, however, does not enable
THP_SWAP. Consequently, in the present kernel configuration, there exists
no practical scenario where users necessitate the restoration of nr
metadata. Platforms implementing THP_SWAP might invoke this function with
nr values exceeding 1, subsequent to do_swap_page() successfully mapping
an entire large folio. Nonetheless, their arch_do_swap_page_nr()
functions remain empty.

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.

To streamline maintenance efforts, we propose removing the implementation
of swap_free(). Instead, we can simply invoke swap_free_nr() with nr set
to 1. swap_free_nr() is designed with a bitmap consisting of only one
long, resulting in overhead that can be ignored for cases where nr equals
1.
A prime candidate for leveraging swap_free_nr() lies within
kernel/power/swap.c. Implementing this change facilitates the adoption of
batch processing for hibernation.

Patch series "large folios swap-in: handle refault cases first", v5.
This patchset is extracted from the large folio swapin series[1],
primarily addressing the handling of scenarios involving large folios in
the swap cache. Currently, it is particularly focused on addressing the
refaulting of mTHP, which is still undergoing reclamation. This approach
aims to streamline code review and expedite the integration of this
segment into the MM tree.
It relies on Ryan's swap-out series[2], leveraging the helper function
swap_pte_batch() introduced by that series.
Presently, do_swap_page only encounters a large folio in the swap cache
before the large folio is released by vmscan. However, the code should
remain equally useful once we support large folio swap-in via
swapin_readahead(). This approach can effectively reduce page faults and
eliminate most redundant checks and early exits for MTE restoration in
recent MTE patchset[3].

This patch (of 6):
While swapping in a large folio, we need to free swaps related to the
whole folio. To avoid frequently acquiring and releasing swap locks, it
is better to introduce an API for batched free. Furthermore, this new
function, swap_free_nr(), is designed to efficiently handle various
scenarios for releasing a specified number, nr, of swap entries.

A lot of intricacies go into updating the stats when adding or removing
mappings: which stat index to use and which function. Abstract this away
into a new static helper in rmap.c, __folio_mod_stat().
This adds an unnecessary call to folio_test_anon() in
__folio_add_anon_rmap() and __folio_add_file_rmap(). However, the folio
struct should already be in the cache at this point, so it shouldn't cause
any noticeable overhead.
No functional change intended.

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.
Stats collected on the patched kernel (+ "noinline") with:
bpftrace -e 'kprobe:unlink_file_vma_batch_process
{ @ = lhist(((struct unlink_vma_file_batch *)arg0)->count, 0, 8, 1); }'

The soft hwpoison injector via madvise(MADV_HWPOISON) operates in a
synchrous way in a sense, the injector is also a process under test, and
should it have the poisoned page mapped in its address space, it should
get killed as much as in a real UE situation. Doing so align with what
the madvise(2) man page says: " "This operation may result in the calling
process receiving a SIGBUS and the page being unmapped."

Patch series "Enhance soft hwpoison handling and injection", v4.
This series is aimed at the following enhancements:
- Let one hwpoison injector, that is, madvise(MADV_HWPOISON) to behave
more like as if a real UE occurred. Because the other two injectors
such as hwpoison-inject and the 'einj' on x86 can't, and it seems to me
we need a better simulation to real UE scenario.
- For years, if the kernel is unable to unmap a hwpoisoned page, it send
a SIGKILL instead of SIGBUS to prevent user process from potentially
accessing the page again. But in doing so, the user process also lose
important information: vaddr, for recovery. Fortunately, the kernel
already has code to kill process re-accessing a hwpoisoned page, so
remove the '!unmap_success' check.
- Right now, if a thp page under GUP longterm pin is hwpoisoned, and
kernel cannot split the thp page, memory-failure simply ignores the UE
and returns. That's not ideal, it could deliver a SIGBUS with useful
information for userspace recovery.
This patch (of 5):
For years when it comes down to kill a process due to hwpoison, a SIGBUS
is delivered only if unmap has been successful. Otherwise, a SIGKILL is
delivered. And the reason for that is to prevent the involved process
from accessing the hwpoisoned page again.
Since then a lot has changed, a hwpoisoned page is marked and upon being
re-accessed, the memory-failure handler invokes kill_accessing_process()
to kill the process immediately. So let's take out the '!unmap_success'
factor and try to deliver SIGBUS if possible.

For now we only get the (small) zeropage mapped to user space in four
cases (excluding VM_PFNMAP mappings, such as /proc/vmstat):
(1) Read page faults in anonymous VMAs (MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANON):
do_anonymous_page() will not refcount it and map it pte_mkspecial()
(2) UFFDIO_ZEROPAGE on anonymous VMA or COW mapping of shmem
(MAP_PRIVATE). mfill_atomic_pte_zeropage() will not refcount it and
map it pte_mkspecial().
(3) KSM in mergeable VMA (anonymous VMA or COW mapping).
cmp_and_merge_page() will not refcount it and map it
pte_mkspecial().
(4) FSDAX as an optimization for holes.
vmf_insert_mixed()->__vm_insert_mixed() might end up calling
insert_page() without CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL, refcounting the
zeropage and not mapping it pte_mkspecial(). With
CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL, we'll call insert_pfn() where we will
not refcount it and map it pte_mkspecial().
In case (4), we might not have VM_MIXEDMAP set: while fs/fuse/dax.c sets
VM_MIXEDMAP, we removed it for ext4 fsdax in commit e1fb4a0864 ("dax:
remove VM_MIXEDMAP for fsdax and device dax") and for XFS in commit
e1fb4a0864 ("dax: remove VM_MIXEDMAP for fsdax and device dax").
Without CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL and with VM_MIXEDMAP, vm_normal_page()
would currently return the zeropage. We'll refcount the zeropage when
mapping and when unmapping.
Without CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL and without VM_MIXEDMAP,
vm_normal_page() would currently refuse to return the zeropage. So we'd
refcount it when mapping but not when unmapping it ... do we have fsdax
without CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL in practice? Hard to tell.
Independent of that, we should never refcount the zeropage when we might
be holding that reference for a long time, because even without an
accounting imbalance we might overflow the refcount. As there is interest
in using the zeropage also in other VM_MIXEDMAP mappings, let's add clean
support for that in the cases where it makes sense:
(A) Never refcount the zeropage when mapping it:
In insert_page(), special-case the zeropage, do not refcount it, and use
pte_mkspecial(). Don't involve insert_pfn(), adjusting insert_page()
looks cleaner than branching off to insert_pfn().
(B) Never refcount the zeropage when unmapping it:
In vm_normal_page(), also don't return the zeropage in a VM_MIXEDMAP
mapping without CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL. Add a VM_WARN_ON_ONCE()
sanity check if we'd ever return the zeropage, which could happen if
someone forgets to set pte_mkspecial() when mapping the zeropage.
Document that.
(C) Allow the zeropage only where reasonable
s390x never wants the zeropage in some processes running legacy KVM guests
that make use of storage keys. So disallow that.
Further, using the zeropage in COW mappings is unproblematic (just what we
do for other COW mappings), because FAULT_FLAG_UNSHARE can just unshare it
and GUP with FOLL_LONGTERM would work as expected.
Similarly, mappings that can never have writable PTEs (implying no write
faults) are also not problematic, because nothing could end up mapping the
PTE writable by mistake later. But in case we could have writable PTEs,
we'll only allow the zeropage in FSDAX VMAs, that are incompatible with
GUP and are blocked there completely.
We'll always require the zeropage to be mapped with pte_special().
GUP-fast will reject the zeropage that way, but GUP-slow will allow it.
(Note that GUP does not refcount the zeropage with FOLL_PIN, because there
were issues with overflowing the refcount in the past).
Add sanity checks to can_change_pte_writable() and wp_page_reuse(), to
catch early during testing if we'd ever find a zeropage unexpectedly in
code that wants to upgrade write permissions.
Convert the BUG_ON in vm_mixed_ok() to an ordinary check and simply fail
with VM_FAULT_SIGBUS, like we do for other sanity checks. Drop the stale
comment regarding reserved pages from insert_page().
Note that:
* we won't mess with VM_PFNMAP mappings for now. remap_pfn_range() and
vmf_insert_pfn() would allow the zeropage in some cases and
not refcount it.
* vmf_insert_pfn*() will reject the zeropage in VM_MIXEDMAP
mappings and we'll leave that alone for now. People can simply use
one of the other interfaces.
* we won't bother with the huge zeropage for now. It's never
PTE-mapped and also GUP does not special-case it yet.

Patch series "mm/memory: cleanly support zeropage in vm_insert_page*(),
vm_map_pages*() and vmf_insert_mixed()", v2.
There is interest in mapping zeropages via vm_insert_pages() [1] into
MAP_SHARED mappings.
For now, we only get zeropages in MAP_SHARED mappings via
vmf_insert_mixed() from FSDAX code, and I think it's a bit shaky in some
cases because we refcount the zeropage when mapping it but not necessarily
always when unmapping it ... and we should actually never refcount it.
It's all a bit tricky, especially how zeropages in MAP_SHARED mappings
interact with GUP (FOLL_LONGTERM), mprotect(), write-faults and s390x
forbidding the shared zeropage (rewrite [2] s now upstream).
This series tries to take the careful approach of only allowing the
zeropage where it is likely safe to use (which should cover the existing
FSDAX use case and [1]), preventing that it could accidentally get mapped
writable during a write fault, mprotect() etc, and preventing issues with
FOLL_LONGTERM in the future with other users.
Tested with a patch from Vincent that uses the zeropage in context of
[1].

Currently we use one swap_address_space for every 64M chunk to reduce lock
contention, this is like having a set of smaller swap files inside one
swap device. But when doing swap cache look up or insert, we are still
using the offset of the whole large swap device. This is OK for
correctness, as the offset (key) is unique.
But Xarray is specially optimized for small indexes, it creates the radix
tree levels lazily to be just enough to fit the largest key stored in one
Xarray. So we are wasting tree nodes unnecessarily.
For 64M chunk it should only take at most 3 levels to contain everything.
But if we are using the offset from the whole swap device, the offset
(key) value will be way beyond 64M, and so will the tree level.
Optimize this by using a new helper swap_cache_index to get a swap entry's
unique offset in its own 64M swap_address_space.
I see a ~1% performance gain in benchmark and actual workload with high
memory pressure.
Test with `time memhog 128G` inside a 8G memcg using 128G swap (ramdisk
with SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO dropped, tested 3 times, results are stable. The
test result is similar but the improvement is smaller if
SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO is enabled, as swap out path can never skip swap
cache):

Patch series "Add helper functions to remove repeated code and improve
readability of cgroup writeback", v2.
This series adds a lot of helpers to remove repeated code between domain
and wb; dirty limit and dirty background; global domain and wb domain.
The helpers also improve readability. More details can be found in the
respective patches.
A simple domain hierarchy is tested:
global domain (> 20G)
|
cgroup domain1(10G)
|
wb1
|
fio
Test steps:
/* make it easy to observe */
echo 300000 > /proc/sys/vm/dirty_expire_centisecs
echo 3000 > /proc/sys/vm/dirty_writeback_centisecs
/* create cgroup domain */
cd /sys/fs/cgroup
echo "+memory +io" > cgroup.subtree_control
mkdir group1
cd group1
echo 10G > memory.high
echo 10G > memory.max
echo $$ > cgroup.procs
mkfs.ext4 -F /dev/vdb
mount /dev/vdb /bdi1/
/* run fio to generate dirty pages */
fio -name test -filename=/bdi1/file -size=xxx -ioengine=libaio -bs=4K \
-iodepth=1 -rw=write -direct=0 --time_based -runtime=600 -invalidate=0
When fio size is 1G, the wb is in freerun state and dirty pages are only
written back when dirty inode is expired after 30 seconds. When fio size
is 2G, the dirty pages keep being written back and bandwidth of fio is
limited.
This patch (of 8):
Similar to wb_dirty_limits which calculates dirty and thresh of wb,
wb_bg_dirty_limits calculates background dirty and background thresh of
wb. With wb_bg_dirty_limits, we could remove repeated code in
wb_over_bg_thresh.

Currently, reclaim always walks the entire cgroup tree in order to ensure
fairness between groups. While overreclaim is limited in shrink_lruvec(),
many of our systems have a sizable number of active groups, and an even
bigger number of idle cgroups with cache left behind by previous jobs; the
mere act of walking all these cgroups can impose significant latency on
direct reclaimers.
In the past, we've used a save-and-restore iterator that enabled
incremental tree walks over multiple reclaim invocations. This ensured
fairness, while keeping the work of individual reclaimers small.
However, in edge cases with a lot of reclaim concurrency, individual
reclaimers would sometimes not see enough of the cgroup tree to make
forward progress and (prematurely) declare OOM. Consequently we switched
to comprehensive walks in 1ba6fc9af3 ("mm: vmscan: do not share cgroup
iteration between reclaimers").
To address the latency problem without bringing back the premature OOM
issue, reinstate the shared iteration, but with a restart condition to do
the full walk in the OOM case - similar to what we do for memory.low
enforcement and active page protection.
In the worst case, we do one more full tree walk before declaring
OOM. But the vast majority of direct reclaim scans can then finish
much quicker, while fairness across the tree is maintained:
- Before this patch, we observed that direct reclaim always takes more
than 100us and most direct reclaim time is spent in reclaim cycles
lasting between 1ms and 1 second. Almost 40% of direct reclaim time
was spent on reclaim cycles exceeding 100ms.
- With this patch, almost all page reclaim cycles last less than 10ms,
and a good amount of direct page reclaim finishes in under 100us. No
page reclaim cycles lasting over 100ms were observed anymore.
The shared iterator state is maintaned inside the target cgroup, so
fair and incremental walks are performed during both global reclaim
and cgroup limit reclaim of complex subtrees.

The dirty throttling logic is interspersed with assumptions that dirty
limits in PAGE_SIZE units fit into 32-bit (so that various multiplications
fit into 64-bits). If limits end up being larger, we will hit overflows,
possible divisions by 0 etc. Fix these problems by never allowing so
large dirty limits as they have dubious practical value anyway. For
dirty_bytes / dirty_background_bytes interfaces we can just refuse to set
so large limits. For dirty_ratio / dirty_background_ratio it isn't so
simple as the dirty limit is computed from the amount of available memory
which can change due to memory hotplug etc. So when converting dirty
limits from ratios to numbers of pages, we just don't allow the result to
exceed UINT_MAX.
This is root-only triggerable problem which occurs when the operator
sets dirty limits to >16 TB.

Patch series "mm: Avoid possible overflows in dirty throttling".
Dirty throttling logic assumes dirty limits in page units fit into
32-bits. This patch series makes sure this is true (see patch 2/2 for
more details).
This patch (of 2):
This reverts commit 9319b64790.
The commit is broken in several ways. Firstly, the removed (u64) cast
from the multiplication will introduce a multiplication overflow on 32-bit
archs if wb_thresh * bg_thresh >= 1<<32 (which is actually common - the
default settings with 4GB of RAM will trigger this). Secondly, the
div64_u64() is unnecessarily expensive on 32-bit archs. We have
div64_ul() in case we want to be safe & cheap. Thirdly, if dirty
thresholds are larger than 1<<32 pages, then dirty balancing is going to
blow up in many other spectacular ways anyway so trying to fix one
possible overflow is just moot.

Dedicated caches are available for fixed size allocations via
kmem_cache_alloc(), but for dynamically sized allocations there is only
the global kmalloc API's set of buckets available. This means it isn't
possible to separate specific sets of dynamically sized allocations into
a separate collection of caches.
This leads to a use-after-free exploitation weakness in the Linux
kernel since many heap memory spraying/grooming attacks depend on using
userspace-controllable dynamically sized allocations to collide with
fixed size allocations that end up in same cache.
While CONFIG_RANDOM_KMALLOC_CACHES provides a probabilistic defense
against these kinds of "type confusion" attacks, including for fixed
same-size heap objects, we can create a complementary deterministic
defense for dynamically sized allocations that are directly user
controlled. Addressing these cases is limited in scope, so isolating these
kinds of interfaces will not become an unbounded game of whack-a-mole. For
example, many pass through memdup_user(), making isolation there very
effective.
In order to isolate user-controllable dynamically-sized
allocations from the common system kmalloc allocations, introduce
kmem_buckets_create(), which behaves like kmem_cache_create(). Introduce
kmem_buckets_alloc(), which behaves like kmem_cache_alloc(). Introduce
kmem_buckets_alloc_track_caller() for where caller tracking is
needed. Introduce kmem_buckets_valloc() for cases where vmalloc fallback
is needed. Note that these caches are specifically flagged with
SLAB_NO_MERGE, since merging would defeat the entire purpose of the
mitigation.
This can also be used in the future to extend allocation profiling's use
of code tagging to implement per-caller allocation cache isolation[1]
even for dynamic allocations.
Memory allocation pinning[2] is still needed to plug the Use-After-Free
cross-allocator weakness (where attackers can arrange to free an
entire slab page and have it reallocated to a different cache),
but that is an existing and separate issue which is complementary
to this improvement. Development continues for that feature via the
SLAB_VIRTUAL[3] series (which could also provide guard pages -- another
complementary improvement).

Introduce CONFIG_SLAB_BUCKETS which provides the infrastructure to
support separated kmalloc buckets (in the following kmem_buckets_create()
patches and future codetag-based separation). Since this will provide
a mitigation for a very common case of exploits, it is recommended to
enable this feature for general purpose distros. By default, the new
Kconfig will be enabled if CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_HARDENED is enabled (and
it is added to the hardening.config Kconfig fragment).
To be able to choose which buckets to allocate from, make the buckets
available to the internal kmalloc interfaces by adding them as the
second argument, rather than depending on the buckets being chosen from
the fixed set of global buckets. Where the bucket is not available,
pass NULL, which means "use the default system kmalloc bucket set"
(the prior existing behavior), as implemented in kmalloc_slab().
To avoid adding the extra argument when !CONFIG_SLAB_BUCKETS, only the
top-level macros and static inlines use the buckets argument (where
they are stripped out and compiled out respectively). The actual extern
functions can then be built without the argument, and the internals
fall back to the global kmalloc buckets unconditionally.

natural alignment for kmalloc(power-of-two)"), while any other sizes are
guaranteed to be aligned only to ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN bytes (although
in practice are aligned more than that in non-debug scenarios).
Rust's allocator API specifies size and alignment per allocation, which
have to satisfy the following rules, per Alice Ryhl [1]:
1. The alignment is a power of two.
2. The size is non-zero.
3. When you round up the size to the next multiple of the alignment,
then it must not overflow the signed type isize / ssize_t.
In order to map this to kmalloc()'s guarantees, some requested
allocation sizes have to be padded to the next power-of-two size [2].
For example, an allocation of size 96 and alignment of 32 will be padded
to an allocation of size 128, because the existing kmalloc-96 bucket
doesn't guarantee alignent above ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN. Without slab
debugging active, the layout of the kmalloc-96 slabs however naturally
align the objects to 32 bytes, so extending the size to 128 bytes is
wasteful.
To improve the situation we can extend the kmalloc() alignment
guarantees in a way that
1) doesn't change the current slab layout (and thus does not increase
internal fragmentation) when slab debugging is not active
2) reduces waste in the Rust allocator use case
3) is a superset of the current guarantee for power-of-two sizes.
The extended guarantee is that alignment is at least the largest
power-of-two divisor of the requested size. For power-of-two sizes the
largest divisor is the size itself, but let's keep this case documented
separately for clarity.
For current kmalloc size buckets, it means kmalloc-96 will guarantee
alignment of 32 bytes and kmalloc-196 will guarantee 64 bytes.
This covers the rules 1 and 2 above of Rust's API as long as the size is
a multiple of the alignment. The Rust layer should now only need to
round up the size to the next multiple if it isn't, while enforcing the
rule 3.
Implementation-wise, this changes the alignment calculation in
create_boot_cache(). While at it also do the calulation only for caches
with the SLAB_KMALLOC flag, because the function is also used to create
the initial kmem_cache and kmem_cache_node caches, where no alignment
guarantee is necessary.
In the Rust allocator's krealloc_aligned(), remove the code that padded
sizes to the next power of two (suggested by Alice Ryhl) as it's no
longer necessary with the new guarantees.

So happens required synchronisation between i_writecount and nr_thps

The requirement that the head page be passed to do_set_pmd() was added in
commit ef37b2ea08 ("mm/memory: page_add_file_rmap() ->

finish_fault() and filemap_map_pages() paths if the page to be inserted is
anything but the head page for an otherwise suitable vma and pmd-sized

Since commit 5d0a661d80 ("mm/page_alloc: use only one PCP list for
THP-sized allocations") no longer differentiates the migration type of
pages in THP-sized PCP list, it's possible that non-movable allocation
requests may get a CMA page from the list, in some cases, it's not
acceptable.
If a large number of CMA memory are configured in system (for example, the
CMA memory accounts for 50% of the system memory), starting a virtual
machine with device passthrough will get stuck. During starting the
virtual machine, it will call pin_user_pages_remote(..., FOLL_LONGTERM,
...) to pin memory. Normally if a page is present and in CMA area,
pin_user_pages_remote() will migrate the page from CMA area to non-CMA
area because of FOLL_LONGTERM flag. But if non-movable allocation
requests return CMA memory, migrate_longterm_unpinnable_pages() will
migrate a CMA page to another CMA page, which will fail to pass the check
in check_and_migrate_movable_pages() and cause migration endless.
Call trace:
pin_user_pages_remote
--__gup_longterm_locked // endless loops in this function
----_get_user_pages_locked
----check_and_migrate_movable_pages
------migrate_longterm_unpinnable_pages
--------alloc_migration_target
This problem will also have a negative impact on CMA itself. For example,
when CMA is borrowed by THP, and we need to reclaim it through cma_alloc()
or dma_alloc_coherent(), we must move those pages out to ensure CMA's
users can retrieve that contigous memory. Currently, CMA's memory is
occupied by non-movable pages, meaning we can't relocate them. As a
result, cma_alloc() is more likely to fail.
To fix the problem above, we add one PCP list for THP, which will not
introduce a new cacheline for struct per_cpu_pages. THP will have 2 PCP
lists, one PCP list is used by MOVABLE allocation, and the other PCP list
is used by UNMOVABLE allocation. MOVABLE allocation contains GPF_MOVABLE,
and UNMOVABLE allocation contains GFP_UNMOVABLE and GFP_RECLAIMABLE.

Without this fix, __kasan_mempool_unpoison_object provides the object's

During compaction isolated free pages are marked allocated so that they
can be split and/or freed. For that, post_alloc_hook() is used inside
split_map_pages() and release_free_list(). split_map_pages() marks free
pages allocated, splits the pages and then lets
alloc_contig_range_noprof() free those pages. release_free_list() marks
free pages and immediately frees them. This usage of post_alloc_hook()
affect memory allocation profiling because these functions might not be
called from an instrumented allocator, therefore current->alloc_tag is
NULL and when debugging is enabled (CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_DEBUG=y)
that causes warnings. To avoid that, wrap such post_alloc_hook() calls
into an instrumented function which acts as an allocator which will be
charged for these fake allocations. Note that these allocations are very
short lived until they are freed, therefore the associated counters should
usually read 0.

slab_post_alloc_hook() uses prepare_slab_obj_exts_hook() to obtain
slabobj_ext object. Currently the only user of slabobj_ext object in this
path is memory allocation profiling, therefore when it's not enabled this
object is not needed. This also generates a warning when compiling with
CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING=n. Move the code under this configuration to
fix the warning. If more slabobj_ext users appear in the future, the code
will have to be changed back to call prepare_slab_obj_exts_hook().

If a driver/subsystem tries to do an allocation after the memblock
allocations have been freed and the memory handed to the buddy
allocator, it will not actually be legal to use that allocation: the
buddy allocator owns the memory. Currently this mis-use is handled by
the memblock function which does allocations and returns virtual
addresses by printing a warning and doing a kmalloc instead. However
the physical allocation function does not to do this check - callers of
the physical alloc function are unprotected against mis-use.
Improve the error catching here by moving the check into the physical
allocation function which is used by the virtual addr allocation
function.

In order to allow for requesting a memory region that can be used for
things like pstore on multiple machines where the memory layout is not the
same, add a new option to the kernel command line called "reserve_mem".
The format is: reserve_mem=nn:align:name
Where it will find nn amount of memory at the given alignment of align.
The name field is to allow another subsystem to retrieve where the memory
was found. For example:
reserve_mem=12M:4096:oops ramoops.mem_name=oops
Where ramoops.mem_name will tell ramoops that memory was reserved for it
via the reserve_mem option and it can find it by calling:
if (reserve_mem_find_by_name("oops", &start, &size)) {
// start holds the start address and size holds the size given
This is typically used for systems that do not wipe the RAM, and this
command line will try to reserve the same physical memory on soft reboots.
Note, it is not guaranteed to be the same location. For example, if KASLR
places the kernel at the location of where the RAM reservation was from a
previous boot, the new reservation will be at a different location. Any
subsystem using this feature must add a way to verify that the contents of
the physical memory is from a previous boot, as there may be cases where
the memory will not be located at the same location.
Not all systems may work either. There could be bit flips if the reboot
goes through the BIOS. Using kexec to reboot the machine is likely to
have better results in such cases.

When testing shmem swapin, I encountered the warning below on my machine.
The reason is that replacing an old shmem folio with a new one causes
mem_cgroup_migrate() to clear the old folio's memcg data. As a result,
the old folio cannot get the correct memcg's lruvec needed to remove
itself from the LRU list when it is being freed. This could lead to
possible serious problems, such as LRU list crashes due to holding the
wrong LRU lock, and incorrect LRU statistics.
To fix this issue, we can fallback to use the mem_cgroup_replace_folio()
to replace the old shmem folio.

Macro RANDOM_ORVALUE was used to make sure the pgtable entry will be
populated with !none data in clear tests.
The RANDOM_ORVALUE tried to cover mostly all the bits in a pgtable entry,
even if there's no discussion on whether all the bits will be vaild. Both
S390 and PPC64 have their own masks to avoid touching some bits. Now it's
the turn for x86_64.
The issue is there's a recent report from Mikhail Gavrilov showing that
this can cause a warning with the newly added pte set check in commit
8430557fc5 on writable v.s. userfaultfd-wp bit, even though the check
itself was valid, the random pte is not. We can choose to mask more bits
out.
However the need to have such random bits setup is questionable, as now
it's already guaranteed to be true on below:
- For pte level, the pgtable entry will be installed with value from
pfn_pte(), where pfn points to a valid page. Hence the pte will be
!none already if populated with pfn_pte().
- For upper-than-pte level, the pgtable entry should contain a directory
entry always, which is also !none.
All the cases look like good enough to test a pxx_clear() helper. Instead
of extending the bitmask, drop the "set random bits" trick completely. Add
some warning guards to make sure the entries will be !none before clear().

I hit the VM_BUG_ON(!list_empty(&cc->migratepages)) in compact_zone(); and
if DEBUG_VM were off, then pages would be lost on a local list.
Our convention is that if migrate_pages() reports complete success (0),
then the migratepages list will be empty; but if it reports an error or
some pages remaining, then its caller must putback_movable_pages().
There's a new case in which migrate_pages() has been reporting complete
success, but returning with pages left on the migratepages list: when
migrate_pages_batch() successfully split a folio on the deferred list, but
then the "Failure isn't counted" call does not dispose of them all.
Since that block is expecting the large folio to have been counted as 1
failure already, and since the return code is later adjusted to success
whenever the returned list is found empty, the simple way to fix this
safely is to count splitting the deferred folio as "a failure".

When I did a large folios split test, a WARNING "[ 5059.122759][ T166]
Cannot split file folio to non-0 order" was triggered. But the test cases
are only for anonmous folios. while mapping_large_folio_support() is only
reasonable for page cache folios.
In split_huge_page_to_list_to_order(), the folio passed to
mapping_large_folio_support() maybe anonmous folio. The folio_test_anon()
check is missing. So the split of the anonmous THP is failed. This is
also the same for shmem_mapping(). We'd better add a check for both. But
the shmem_mapping() in __split_huge_page() is not involved, as for
anonmous folios, the end parameter is set to -1, so (head[i].index >= end)
is always false. shmem_mapping() is not called.
Also add a VM_WARN_ON_ONCE() in mapping_large_folio_support() for anon
mapping, So we can detect the wrong use more easily.
THP folios maybe exist in the pagecache even the file system doesn't
support large folio, it is because when CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE is
enabled, khugepaged will try to collapse read-only file-backed pages to
THP. But the mapping does not actually support multi order large folios
properly.
Using /sys/kernel/debug/split_huge_pages to verify this, with this patch,
large anon THP is successfully split and the warning is ceased.

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.

Not all pages may apply to pgtable check. One example is ZONE_DEVICE
pages: they map PFNs directly, and they don't allocate page_ext at all
even if there's struct page around. One may reference
devm_memremap_pages().
When both ZONE_DEVICE and page-table-check enabled, then try to map some
dax memories, one can trigger kernel bug constantly now when the kernel
was trying to inject some pfn maps on the dax device:
kernel BUG at mm/page_table_check.c:55!
While it's pretty legal to use set_pxx_at() for ZONE_DEVICE pages for page
fault resolutions, skip all the checks if page_ext doesn't even exist in
pgtable checker, which applies to ZONE_DEVICE but maybe more.

For tests that need to allocate using vm_mmap() (e.g. usercopy and
execve), provide the interface to have the allocation tracked by KUnit
itself. This requires bringing up a placeholder userspace mm.
This combines my earlier attempt at this with Mark Rutland's version[1].
Normally alloc_mm() and arch_pick_mmap_layout() aren't exported for
modules, so export these only for KUnit testing.

Current page initialization call flow looks like this with some

paging_init()
free_area_init()
memmap_init()
memmap_init_zone_range()
memmap_init_range()
defer_init()
__init_single_page()

memmap_init_reserved_pages()
reserve_bootmem_region()
init_reserved_page()
__init_single_page()
There two cases depends on CONFIG_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT.
* If CONFIG_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT, pages after first_init_pfn is
skipped at defer_init(). Then init_reserved_page() is defined to
call __init_single_page() for them.
* If !CONFIG_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT, pages are all initialized by
memmap_init_range().
In both cases, after init_reserved_page(), we expect __init_single_page()
has done its work to the page, which already initialize page->lru properly.

The commit 946fa0dbf2 ("mm/slub: extend redzone check to extra
allocated kmalloc space than requested") will extend right redzone
when allocating for orig_size < object_size. So we can't overlay the
freepointer in the object space in this case.
But the code looks like it forgot to check SLAB_RED_ZONE, since there
won't be extended right redzone if only orig_size enabled.
As we are here, make this complex conditional expressions a little
prettier and add some comments about extending right redzone when
slub_debug_orig_size() enabled.

Now check_object() calls check_bytes_and_report() multiple times to
check every section of the object it cares about, like left and right
redzones, object poison, paddings poison and freepointer. It will
abort the checking process and return 0 once it finds an error.
There are two inconsistencies in check_object(), which are alignment
padding checking and object padding checking. We only print the error
messages but don't return 0 to tell callers that something is wrong
and needs to be handled. Please see alloc_debug_processing() and
free_debug_processing() for details.
We want to do all checks without skipping, so use a local variable
"ret" to save each check result and change check_bytes_and_report() to
only report specific error findings. Then at end of check_object(),
print the trailer once if any found an error.

GCC 14.1 complains about the argument usage of kmemdup_array():

drivers/soc/tegra/fuse/fuse-tegra.c:130:65: note: earlier argument should specify number of elements, later size of each element
The annotation introduced by commit 7d78a77733 ("string: Add
additional __realloc_size() annotations for "dup" helpers") lets the
compiler think that kmemdup_array() follows the same format as calloc(),
with the number of elements preceding the size of one element. So we
could simply swap the arguments to __realloc_size() to get rid of that
warning, but it seems cleaner to instead have kmemdup_array() follow the
same format as krealloc_array(), memdup_array_user(), calloc() etc.

Grepping /proc/allocinfo for "noprof" reveals several xyz_noprof
functions, which means internally they are calling profiled functions.
This should never happen as such calls move allocation charge from a
higher level location where it should be accounted for into these lower
level helpers. Fix this by replacing profiled function calls with noprof
ones.

We normally ksm_zero_pages++ in ksmd when page is merged with zero page,
but ksm_zero_pages-- is done from page tables side, where there is no any
accessing protection of ksm_zero_pages.
So we can read very exceptional value of ksm_zero_pages in rare cases,
such as -1, which is very confusing to users.
Fix it by changing to use atomic_long_t, and the same case with the

Patch series "mm/ksm: fix some accounting problems", v3.
We encountered some abnormal ksm_pages_scanned and ksm_zero_pages during
some random tests.
1. ksm_pages_scanned unchanged even ksmd scanning has progress.
2. ksm_zero_pages maybe -1 in some rare cases.
This patch (of 2):
During testing, I found ksm_pages_scanned is unchanged although the
scan_get_next_rmap_item() did return valid rmap_item that is not NULL.
The reason is the scan_get_next_rmap_item() will return NULL after a full
scan, so ksm_do_scan() just return without accounting of the
ksm_pages_scanned.
Fix it by just putting ksm_pages_scanned accounting in that loop, and it
will be accounted more timely if that loop would last for a long time.

As noticed by Brian, KMSAN should not be zeroing the origin when
unpoisoning parts of a four-byte uninitialized value, e.g.:
char a[4];
kmsan_unpoison_memory(a, 1);
This led to false negatives, as certain poisoned values could receive zero
origins, preventing those values from being reported.
To fix the problem, check that kmsan_internal_set_shadow_origin() writes
zero origins only to slots which have zero shadow.

While trying to service a movable allocation (page type 1), the page
allocator runs into a two-pageblock buddy on the movable freelist whose
second block is typed as highatomic (page type 3).
This inconsistency is caused by the highatomic reservation system
operating on single pageblocks, while MAX_ORDER can be bigger than that -
in this configuration, pageblock_order is 9 while MAX_PAGE_ORDER is 10.
The test case is observed to make several adjacent order-3 requests with
__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM cleared, which marks the surrounding block as
highatomic. Upon freeing, the blocks merge into an order-10 buddy. When
the highatomic pool is drained later on, this order-10 buddy gets moved
back to the movable list, but only the first pageblock is marked movable
again. A subsequent expand() of this buddy warns about the tail being of
a different type.
This is a long-standing bug that's surfaced by the recent block type
warnings added to the allocator. The consequences seem mostly benign, it
just results in odd behavior: the highatomic tail blocks are not properly
drained, instead they end up on the movable list first, then go back to
the highatomic list after an alloc-free cycle.
To fix this, make the highatomic reservation code aware that
allocations/buddies can be larger than a pageblock.
While it's an old quirk, the recently added type consistency warnings seem
to be the most prominent consequence of it. Set the Fixes: tag
accordingly to highlight this backporting dependency.

The assert was introduced in the commit cited below as an insurance that
the semantic is the same after the local_irq_save() has been removed and
the function has been made static.
The original requirement to disable interrupt was due the modification
of per-CPU counters which require interrupts to be disabled because the
counter update operation is not atomic and some of the counters are
updated from interrupt context.
All callers of __mod_objcg_mlstate() acquire a lock
(memcg_stock.stock_lock) which disables interrupts on !PREEMPT_RT and
the lockdep assert is satisfied. On PREEMPT_RT the interrupts are not
disabled and the assert triggers.
The safety of the counter update is already ensured by
VM_WARN_ON_IRQS_ENABLED() which is part of __mod_memcg_lruvec_state() and
does not require yet another check.
Remove the lockdep assert from __mod_objcg_mlstate().

The mTHP swap related counters: 'anon_swpout' and 'anon_swpout_fallback'
are confusing with an 'anon_' prefix, since the shmem can swap out
non-anonymous pages. So drop the 'anon_' prefix to keep consistent with
the old swap counter names.
This is needed in 6.10-rcX to avoid having an inconsistent ABI out in the

Pull base x86 KVM support for running SEV-SNP guests from Michael Roth:
* add some basic infrastructure and introduces a new KVM_X86_SNP_VM
vm_type to handle differences versus the existing KVM_X86_SEV_VM and
KVM_X86_SEV_ES_VM types.
* implement the KVM API to handle the creation of a cryptographic
launch context, encrypt/measure the initial image into guest memory,
and finalize it before launching it.
* implement handling for various guest-generated events such as page
state changes, onlining of additional vCPUs, etc.
* implement the gmem/mmu hooks needed to prepare gmem-allocated pages
before mapping them into guest private memory ranges as well as
cleaning them up prior to returning them to the host for use as
normal memory. Because those cleanup hooks supplant certain
activities like issuing WBINVDs during KVM MMU invalidations, avoid
duplicating that work to avoid unecessary overhead.
This merge leaves out support support for attestation guest requests
and for loading the signing keys to be used for attestation requests.
I have a program that sets up a periodic timer with 10ms interval. When
the program attempts to call fallocate(2) on tmpfs, it goes into an
infinite loop. fallocate(2) takes longer than 10ms, so it gets
interrupted by a signal and it returns EINTR. On EINTR, the fallocate
call is restarted, going into the same loop again.
Let's change the signal_pending() check in shmem_fallocate() loop to
fatal_signal_pending(). This solves the problem of shmem_fallocate()
constantly restarting. Since most other filesystem's fallocate methods
don't react to signals, it is unlikely userspace really relies on timely
delivery of non-fatal signals while fallocate is running. Also the
comment before the signal check:
/*
* Good, the fallocate(2) manpage permits EINTR: we may have
* been interrupted because we are using up too much memory.
*/
indicates that the check was mainly added for OOM situations in which
case the process will be sent a fatal signal so this change preserves
the behavior in OOM situations.

On an (old) x86 system with SRAT just covering space above 4Gb:

The functions __kmalloc_noprof(), kmalloc_large_noprof(),
kmalloc_trace_noprof() and their _node variants are all internal to the
implementations of kmalloc_noprof() and kmalloc_node_noprof() and are
only declared in the "public" slab.h and exported so that those
implementations can be static inline and distinguish the build-time
constant size variants. The only other users for some of the internal
functions are slub_kunit and fortify_kunit tests which make very
short-lived allocations.
Therefore we can stop wrapping them with the alloc_hooks() macro.
Instead add a __ prefix to all of them and a comment documenting these
as internal. Also rename __kmalloc_trace() to __kmalloc_cache() which is
more descriptive - it is a variant of __kmalloc() where the exact
kmalloc cache has been already determined.
The usage in fortify_kunit can be removed completely, as the internal
functions should be tested already through kmalloc() tests in the
test variant that passes non-constant allocation size.

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.

Jann Horn: raising awareness and providing valuable insights on the
destructive madvise operations.
Linus Torvalds: assisting in defining system call signature and scope.

The page-owner tracking code records stack traces during page allocation.
To do this, it must do a memory allocation for the stack information from
inside an existing memory allocation context. This internal allocation
must obey the high level caller allocation constraints to avoid generating
false positive warnings that have nothing to do with the code they are
instrumenting/tracking (e.g. through lockdep reclaim state tracking)
We also don't want recording stack traces to deplete emergency memory
reserves - debug code is useless if it creates new issues that can't be
replicated when the debug code is disabled.
Switch the stack tracking allocation masking to use gfp_nested_mask() to
address these issues. gfp_nested_mask() naturally strips GFP_ZONEMASK,
too, which greatly simplifies this code.

Patch series "mm: fix nested allocation context filtering".
This patchset is the followup to the comment I made earlier today:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-xfs/ZjAyIWUzDipofHFJ@dread.disaster.area/
Tl;dr: Memory allocations that are done inside the public memory
allocation API need to obey the reclaim recursion constraints placed on
the allocation by the original caller, including the "don't track
recursion for this allocation" case defined by __GFP_NOLOCKDEP.
These nested allocations are generally in debug code that is tracking
something about the allocation (kmemleak, KASAN, etc) and so are
allocating private kernel objects that only that debug system will use.
Neither the page-owner code nor the stack depot code get this right. They
also also clear GFP_ZONEMASK as a separate operation, which is completely
redundant because the constraint filter applied immediately after
guarantees that GFP_ZONEMASK bits are cleared.
kmemleak gets this filtering right. It preserves the allocation
constraints for deadlock prevention and clears all other context flags
whilst also ensuring that the nested allocation will fail quickly,
silently and without depleting emergency kernel reserves if there is no
memory available.
This can be made much more robust, immune to whack-a-mole games and the
code greatly simplified by lifting gfp_kmemleak_mask() to
include/linux/gfp.h and using that everywhere. Also document it so that
there is no excuse for not knowing about it when writing new debug code
that nests allocations.
Tested with lockdep, KASAN + page_owner=on and kmemleak=on over multiple
fstests runs with XFS.
This patch (of 3):
Any "internal" nested allocation done from within an allocation context
needs to obey the high level allocation gfp_mask constraints. This is
necessary for debug code like KASAN, kmemleak, lockdep, etc that allocate
memory for saving stack traces and other information during memory
allocation. If they don't obey things like __GFP_NOLOCKDEP or
__GFP_NOWARN, they produce false positive failure detections.
kmemleak gets this right by using gfp_kmemleak_mask() to pass through the
relevant context flags to the nested allocation to ensure that the
allocation follows the constraints of the caller context.
KASAN recently was foudn to be missing __GFP_NOLOCKDEP due to stack depot
allocations, and even more recently the page owner tracking code was also
found to be missing __GFP_NOLOCKDEP support.
We also don't wan't want KASAN or lockdep to drive the system into OOM
kill territory by exhausting emergency reserves. This is something that
kmemleak also gets right by adding (__GFP_NORETRY | __GFP_NOMEMALLOC |
__GFP_NOWARN) to the allocation mask.
Hence it is clear that we need to define a common nested allocation filter
mask for these sorts of third party nested allocations used in debug code.
So to start this process, lift gfp_kmemleak_mask() to gfp.h and rename it
to gfp_nested_mask(), and convert the kmemleak callers to use it.

...
* Move a lot of state that was previously stored on a per vcpu
basis into a per-CPU area, because it is only pertinent to the
host while the vcpu is loaded. This results in better state
tracking, and a smaller vcpu structure.
* Add full handling of the ERET/ERETAA/ERETAB instructions in
nested virtualisation. The last two instructions also require
emulating part of the pointer authentication extension.
As a result, the trap handling of pointer authentication has
been greatly simplified.
* Turn the global (and not very scalable) LPI translation cache
into a per-ITS, scalable cache, making non directly injected
LPIs much cheaper to make visible to the vcpu.
* A batch of pKVM patches, mostly fixes and cleanups, as the
upstreaming process seems to be resuming. Fingers crossed!
* Allocate PPIs and SGIs outside of the vcpu structure, allowing
for smaller EL2 mapping and some flexibility in implementing
more or less than 32 private IRQs.
* Purge stale mpidr_data if a vcpu is created after the MPIDR
map has been created.
* Preserve vcpu-specific ID registers across a vcpu reset.
* Various minor cleanups and improvements.
LoongArch:
* Add ParaVirt IPI support.
* Add software breakpoint support.
* Add mmio trace events support.
RISC-V:
* Support guest breakpoints using ebreak
* Introduce per-VCPU mp_state_lock and reset_cntx_lock
* Virtualize SBI PMU snapshot and counter overflow interrupts
* New selftests for SBI PMU and Guest ebreak
* Some preparatory work for both TDX and SNP page fault handling.
This also cleans up the page fault path, so that the priorities
of various kinds of fauls (private page, no memory, write
to read-only slot, etc.) are easier to follow.
x86:
* Minimize amount of time that shadow PTEs remain in the special
REMOVED_SPTE state. This is a state where the mmu_lock is held for
reading but concurrent accesses to the PTE have to spin; shortening
its use allows other vCPUs to repopulate the zapped region while
the zapper finishes tearing down the old, defunct page tables.
* Advertise the max mappable GPA in the "guest MAXPHYADDR" CPUID field,
which is defined by hardware but left for software use. This lets KVM
communicate its inability to map GPAs that set bits 51:48 on hosts
without 5-level nested page tables. Guest firmware is expected to
use the information when mapping BARs; this avoids that they end up at
a legal, but unmappable, GPA.
* Fixed a bug where KVM would not reject accesses to MSR that aren't
supposed to exist given the vCPU model and/or KVM configuration.
* As usual, a bunch of code cleanups.
x86 (AMD):
* Implement a new and improved API to initialize SEV and SEV-ES VMs, which
will also be extendable to SEV-SNP. The new API specifies the desired
encryption in KVM_CREATE_VM and then separately initializes the VM.
The new API also allows customizing the desired set of VMSA features;
the features affect the measurement of the VM's initial state, and
therefore enabling them cannot be done tout court by the hypervisor.
While at it, the new API includes two bugfixes that couldn't be
applied to the old one without a flag day in userspace or without
affecting the initial measurement. When a SEV-ES VM is created with
the new VM type, KVM_GET_REGS/KVM_SET_REGS and friends are
rejected once the VMSA has been encrypted. Also, the FPU and AVX
state will be synchronized and encrypted too.
* Support for GHCB version 2 as applicable to SEV-ES guests. This, once
more, is only accessible when using the new KVM_SEV_INIT2 flow for
initialization of SEV-ES VMs.
x86 (Intel):
* An initial bunch of prerequisite patches for Intel TDX were merged.
They generally don't do anything interesting. The only somewhat user
visible change is a new debugging mode that checks that KVM's MMU
never triggers a #VE virtualization exception in the guest.

Pull KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"ARM:
- Move a lot of state that was previously stored on a per vcpu basis
into a per-CPU area, because it is only pertinent to the host while
the vcpu is loaded. This results in better state tracking, and a
smaller vcpu structure.
- Add full handling of the ERET/ERETAA/ERETAB instructions in nested
virtualisation. The last two instructions also require emulating
part of the pointer authentication extension. As a result, the trap
handling of pointer authentication has been greatly simplified.
- Turn the global (and not very scalable) LPI translation cache into
a per-ITS, scalable cache, making non directly injected LPIs much
cheaper to make visible to the vcpu.
- A batch of pKVM patches, mostly fixes and cleanups, as the
upstreaming process seems to be resuming. Fingers crossed!
- Allocate PPIs and SGIs outside of the vcpu structure, allowing for
smaller EL2 mapping and some flexibility in implementing more or
less than 32 private IRQs.
- Purge stale mpidr_data if a vcpu is created after the MPIDR map has
been created.
- Preserve vcpu-specific ID registers across a vcpu reset.
- Various minor cleanups and improvements.
LoongArch:
- Add ParaVirt IPI support
- Add software breakpoint support
- Add mmio trace events support
RISC-V:
- Support guest breakpoints using ebreak
- Introduce per-VCPU mp_state_lock and reset_cntx_lock
- Virtualize SBI PMU snapshot and counter overflow interrupts
- New selftests for SBI PMU and Guest ebreak
- Some preparatory work for both TDX and SNP page fault handling.
This also cleans up the page fault path, so that the priorities of
various kinds of fauls (private page, no memory, write to read-only
slot, etc.) are easier to follow.
x86:
- Minimize amount of time that shadow PTEs remain in the special
REMOVED_SPTE state.
This is a state where the mmu_lock is held for reading but
concurrent accesses to the PTE have to spin; shortening its use
allows other vCPUs to repopulate the zapped region while the zapper
finishes tearing down the old, defunct page tables.
- Advertise the max mappable GPA in the "guest MAXPHYADDR" CPUID
field, which is defined by hardware but left for software use.
This lets KVM communicate its inability to map GPAs that set bits
51:48 on hosts without 5-level nested page tables. Guest firmware
is expected to use the information when mapping BARs; this avoids
that they end up at a legal, but unmappable, GPA.
- Fixed a bug where KVM would not reject accesses to MSR that aren't
supposed to exist given the vCPU model and/or KVM configuration.
- As usual, a bunch of code cleanups.
x86 (AMD):
- Implement a new and improved API to initialize SEV and SEV-ES VMs,
which will also be extendable to SEV-SNP.
The new API specifies the desired encryption in KVM_CREATE_VM and
then separately initializes the VM. The new API also allows
customizing the desired set of VMSA features; the features affect
the measurement of the VM's initial state, and therefore enabling
them cannot be done tout court by the hypervisor.
While at it, the new API includes two bugfixes that couldn't be
applied to the old one without a flag day in userspace or without
affecting the initial measurement. When a SEV-ES VM is created with
the new VM type, KVM_GET_REGS/KVM_SET_REGS and friends are rejected
once the VMSA has been encrypted. Also, the FPU and AVX state will
be synchronized and encrypted too.
- Support for GHCB version 2 as applicable to SEV-ES guests.
This, once more, is only accessible when using the new
KVM_SEV_INIT2 flow for initialization of SEV-ES VMs.
x86 (Intel):
- An initial bunch of prerequisite patches for Intel TDX were merged.
They generally don't do anything interesting. The only somewhat
user visible change is a new debugging mode that checks that KVM's
MMU never triggers a #VE virtualization exception in the guest.
- Clear vmcs.EXIT_QUALIFICATION when synthesizing an EPT Misconfig
VM-Exit to L1, as per the SDM.
Generic:
- Use vfree() instead of kvfree() for allocations that always use
vcalloc() or __vcalloc().
- Remove .change_pte() MMU notifier - the changes to non-KVM code are
small and Andrew Morton asked that I also take those through the
KVM tree.
The callback was only ever implemented by KVM (which was also the
original user of MMU notifiers) but it had been nonfunctional ever
since calls to set_pte_at_notify were wrapped with

Extend execmem parameters to accommodate more complex overrides of
module_alloc() by architectures.
This includes specification of a fallback range required by arm, arm64
and powerpc, EXECMEM_MODULE_DATA type required by powerpc, support for
allocation of KASAN shadow required by s390 and x86 and support for
late initialization of execmem required by arm64.
The core implementation of execmem_alloc() takes care of suppressing
warnings when the initial allocation fails but there is a fallback range
defined.

Several architectures override module_alloc() only to define address
range for code allocations different than VMALLOC address space.
Provide a generic implementation in execmem that uses the parameters for
address space ranges, required alignment and page protections provided
by architectures.
The architectures must fill execmem_info structure and implement
execmem_arch_setup() that returns a pointer to that structure. This way the
execmem initialization won't be called from every architecture, but rather
from a central place, namely a core_initcall() in execmem.
The execmem provides execmem_alloc() API that wraps __vmalloc_node_range()
with the parameters defined by the architectures. If an architecture does
not implement execmem_arch_setup(), execmem_alloc() will fall back to
module_alloc().

module_alloc() is used everywhere as a mean to allocate memory for code.
Beside being semantically wrong, this unnecessarily ties all subsystems
that need to allocate code, such as ftrace, kprobes and BPF to modules and
puts the burden of code allocation to the modules code.
Several architectures override module_alloc() because of various
constraints where the executable memory can be located and this causes
additional obstacles for improvements of code allocation.
Start splitting code allocation from modules by introducing execmem_alloc()
and execmem_free() APIs.
Initially, execmem_alloc() is a wrapper for module_alloc() and
execmem_free() is a replacement of module_memfree() to allow updating all
call sites to use the new APIs.
Since architectures define different restrictions on placement,
permissions, alignment and other parameters for memory that can be used by
different subsystems that allocate executable memory, execmem_alloc() takes
a type argument, that will be used to identify the calling subsystem and to
allow architectures define parameters for ranges suitable for that
subsystem.
No functional changes.

Pull io_uring updates from Jens Axboe:
- Greatly improve send zerocopy performance, by enabling coalescing of
sent buffers.
MSG_ZEROCOPY already does this with send(2) and sendmsg(2), but the
io_uring side did not. In local testing, the crossover point for send
zerocopy being faster is now around 3000 byte packets, and it
performs better than the sync syscall variants as well.
This feature relies on a shared branch with net-next, which was
pulled into both branches.
- Unification of how async preparation is done across opcodes.
Previously, opcodes that required extra memory for async retry would
allocate that as needed, using on-stack state until that was the
case. If async retry was needed, the on-stack state was adjusted
appropriately for a retry and then copied to the allocated memory.
This led to some fragile and ugly code, particularly for read/write
handling, and made storage retries more difficult than they needed to
be. Allocate the memory upfront, as it's cheap from our pools, and
use that state consistently both initially and also from the retry
side.
- Move away from using remap_pfn_range() for mapping the rings.
This is really not the right interface to use and can cause lifetime
issues or leaks. Additionally, it means the ring sq/cq arrays need to
be physically contigious, which can cause problems in production with
larger rings when services are restarted, as memory can be very
fragmented at that point.
Move to using vm_insert_page(s) for the ring sq/cq arrays, and apply
the same treatment to mapped ring provided buffers. This also helps
unify the code we have dealing with allocating and mapping memory.
Hard to see in the diffstat as we're adding a few features as well,
but this kills about ~400 lines of code from the codebase as well.
- Add support for bundles for send/recv.
When used with provided buffers, bundles support sending or receiving
more than one buffer at the time, improving the efficiency by only
needing to call into the networking stack once for multiple sends or
receives.
- Tweaks for our accept operations, supporting both a DONTWAIT flag for
skipping poll arm and retry if we can, and a POLLFIRST flag that the
application can use to skip the initial accept attempt and rely
purely on poll for triggering the operation. Both of these have
identical flags on the receive side already.
- Make the task_work ctx locking unconditional.
We had various code paths here that would do a mix of lock/trylock
and set the task_work state to whether or not it was locked. All of
that goes away, we lock it unconditionally and get rid of the state
flag indicating whether it's locked or not.
The state struct still exists as an empty type, can go away in the
future.
- Add support for specifying NOP completion values, allowing it to be
used for error handling testing.
- Use set/test bit for io-wq worker flags. Not strictly needed, but
also doesn't hurt and helps silence a KCSAN warning.
- Cleanups for io-wq locking and work assignments, closing a tiny race
where cancelations would not be able to find the work item reliably.

Pull netfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This reworks the netfslib writeback implementation so that pages read
from the cache are written to the cache through ->writepages(),
thereby allowing the fscache page flag to be retired.
The reworking also:
- builds on top of the new writeback_iter() infrastructure
- makes it possible to use vectored write RPCs as discontiguous
streams of pages can be accommodated
- makes it easier to do simultaneous content crypto and stream
division
- provides support for retrying writes and re-dividing a stream
- replaces the ->launder_folio() op, so that ->writepages() is used
instead
- uses mempools to allocate the netfs_io_request and
netfs_io_subrequest structs to avoid allocation failure in the
writeback path
Some code that uses the fscache page flag is retained for
compatibility purposes with nfs and ceph. The code is switched to
using the synonymous private_2 label instead and marked with
deprecation comments.
The merge commit contains additional details on the new algorithm that
I've left out of here as it would probably be excessively detailed.

Pull slab updates from Vlastimil Babka:
"This time it's mostly random cleanups and fixes, with two performance
fixes that might have significant impact, but limited to systems
experiencing particular bad corner case scenarios rather than general
performance improvements.
The memcg hook changes are going through the mm tree due to
dependencies.
- Prevent stalls when reading /proc/slabinfo (Jianfeng Wang)
This fixes the long-standing problem that can happen with workloads
that have alloc/free patterns resulting in many partially used
slabs (in e.g. dentry cache). Reading /proc/slabinfo will traverse
the long partial slab list under spinlock with disabled irqs and
thus can stall other processes or even trigger the lockup
detection. The traversal is only done to count free objects so that
<active_objs> column can be reported along with <num_objs>.
To avoid affecting fast paths with another shared counter
(attempted in the past) or complex partial list traversal schemes
that allow rescheduling, the chosen solution resorts to
approximation - when the partial list is over 10000 slabs long, we
will only traverse first 5000 slabs from head and tail each and use
the average of those to estimate the whole list. Both head and tail
are used as the slabs near head to tend to have more free objects
than the slabs towards the tail.
It is expected the approximation should not break existing
/proc/slabinfo consumers. The <num_objs> field is still accurate
and reflects the overall kmem_cache footprint. The <active_objs>
was already imprecise due to cpu and percpu-partial slabs, so can't
be relied upon to determine exact cache usage. The difference
between <active_objs> and <num_objs> is mainly useful to determine
the slab fragmentation, and that will be possible even with the
approximation in place.
- Prevent allocating many slabs when a NUMA node is full (Chen Jun)
Currently, on NUMA systems with a node under significantly bigger
pressure than other nodes, the fallback strategy may result in each
kmalloc_node() that can't be safisfied from the preferred node, to
allocate a new slab on a fallback node, and not reuse the slabs
already on that node's partial list.
This is now fixed and partial lists of fallback nodes are checked
even for kmalloc_node() allocations. It's still preferred to
allocate a new slab on the requested node before a fallback, but
only with a GFP_NOWAIT attempt, which will fail quickly when the
node is under a significant memory pressure.
- More SLAB removal related cleanups (Xiu Jianfeng, Hyunmin Lee)
- Fix slub_kunit self-test with hardened freelists (Guenter Roeck)
- Mark racy accesses for KCSAN (linke li)
- Misc cleanups (Xiongwei Song, Haifeng Xu, Sangyun Kim)"

Patch series "Minor fixups for hugetlb fault path".
This series contains a couple of fixups for hugetlb_fault and hugetlb_wp
respectively, where a VM_FAULT_SET_HINDEX call was missing.
I did not bother with a Fixes tag because the missing piece here is that
we will not report to userspace the right extension of the faulty area by
adjusting struct kernel_siginfo.si_addr_lsb, but I do not consider that to
be a big issue because I assume that userspace already knows the size of
the mapping anyway.
This patch (of 2):
commit af19487f00 ("mm: make PTE_MARKER_SWAPIN_ERROR more general")
added the code to handle pte_markers in hugetlb faulting path. In case of
an UFFD_POISON event, a PTE_MARKER_POISONED will be created and we will
return VM_FAULT_HWPOISON_LARGE upon detecting that in the fault path. Add
the missing VM_FAULT_SET_HINDEX, so the right si_addr_lsb will be passed
to userspace to report the extension of the faulty area.

alloc_mem_cgroup_per_node_info() returns int that doesn't map to any errno

change the function to return bool (true on success) because this is

Previously, all NR_VM_EVENT_ITEMS stats were maintained per-memcg,
although some of those fields are not exposed anywhere. Commit
14e0f6c957 ("memcg: reduce memory for the lruvec and memcg stats")
changed this such that we only maintain the stats we actually expose
per-memcg via a translation table.
Additionally, commit 514462bbe9 ("memcg: warn for unexpected events
and stats") added a warning if a per-memcg stat update is attempted for
a stat that is not in the translation table. The warning started firing
for the NR_{FILE/SHMEM}_PMDMAPPED stat updates in the rmap code. These
stats are not maintained per-memcg, and hence are not in the translation
table.
Do not use __lruvec_stat_mod_folio() when updating NR_FILE_PMDMAPPED and
NR_SHMEM_PMDMAPPED. Use __mod_node_page_state() instead, which updates
the global per-node stats only.

Patch series "mm/damon: misc fixes and improvements".
Add miscelleneous and non-urgent fixes and improvements for DAMON code,
selftests, and documents.
This patch (of 10):
damos_quota_init_priv() function should initialize all private fields of
struct damos_quota. However, it is not initializing ->esz_bp field. This
could result in use of uninitialized variable from
damon_feed_loop_next_input() function. There is no such issue at the
moment because every caller of the function is passing damos_quota object
that already having the field zero value. But we cannot guarantee the
future, and the function is not doing what it is promising. A bug is a
bug. This fix is for preventing possible future issues.

filemap users like guest_memfd may use page cache pages to
allocate/manage memory that is only intended to be accessed by guests
via hardware protections like encryption. Writes to memory of this sort
in common paths like truncation may cause unexpected behavior such as
writing garbage instead of zeros when attempting to zero pages, or
worse, triggering hardware protections that are considered fatal as far
as the kernel is concerned.
Introduce a new address_space flag, AS_INACCESSIBLE, and use this
initially to prevent zero'ing of pages during truncation, with the
understanding that it is up to the owner of the mapping to handle this
specially if needed.
This is admittedly a rather blunt solution, but it seems like
there are no other places that should take into account the
flag to keep its promise.

Patch series "mm/damon/paddr: simplify page level access re-check for
pageout.
The 'pageout' DAMOS action implementation of 'paddr' asks reclaim_pages()
to do page level access check again. But the user can ask 'paddr' to do
the page level access check on its own, using DAMOS filter of 'young page'
type. Meanwhile, 'paddr' is the only user of reclaim_pages() that asks
the page level access check.
Make 'paddr' does the page level access check on its own always, and
simplify reclaim_pages() by removing the page level access check request
handling logic. As a result of the change for reclaim_pages(),
reclaim_folio_list(), which is called by reclaim_pages(), also no more
need to do the page level access check. Simplify the function, too.
This patch (of 4):
'pageout' DAMOS action implementation of 'paddr' asks reclaim_pages() to
do the page level access check. User could ask DAMOS to do the page level
access check on its own using 'young page' type DAMOS filter. In the
case, pageout DAMOS action unnecessarily asks reclaim_pages() to do the
check again. Ask the page level access check only if the scheme is not
having the filter.

Commit a12083d721 added hugepd handling for gup-slow, reusing gup-fast
functions. follow_hugepd() correctly took the vma pointer in, however
didn't pass it over into the lower functions, which was overlooked.
The issue is gup_fast_hugepte() uses the vma pointer to make the correct
decision on whether an unshare is needed for a FOLL_PIN|FOLL_LONGTERM.
Now without vma ponter it will constantly return "true" (needs an unshare)
for a page cache, even though in the SHARED case it will be wrong to
unshare.
The other problem is, even if an unshare is needed, it now returns 0
rather than -EMLINK, which will not trigger a follow up FAULT_FLAG_UNSHARE
fault. That will need to be fixed too when the unshare is wanted.
gup_longterm test didn't expose this issue in the past because it didn't
yet test R/O unshare in this case, another separate patch will enable that
in future tests.
Fix it by passing vma correctly to the bottom, rename gup_fast_hugepte()
back to gup_hugepte() as it is shared between the fast/slow paths, and
also allow -EMLINK to be returned properly by gup_hugepte() even though
gup-fast will take it the same as zero.

similarly to what stock->cached_objcg and stock->cached.

__split_huge_pmd_locked() can be called for a present THP, devmap or
(non-present) migration entry. It calls pmdp_invalidate() unconditionally
on the pmdp and only determines if it is present or not based on the
returned old pmd. This is a problem for the migration entry case because
pmd_mkinvalid(), called by pmdp_invalidate() must only be called for a
present pmd.
On arm64 at least, pmd_mkinvalid() will mark the pmd such that any future
call to pmd_present() will return true. And therefore any lockless
pgtable walker could see the migration entry pmd in this state and start
interpretting the fields as if it were present, leading to BadThings (TM).
GUP-fast appears to be one such lockless pgtable walker.
x86 does not suffer the above problem, but instead pmd_mkinvalid() will
corrupt the offset field of the swap entry within the swap pte. See link
below for discussion of that problem.
Fix all of this by only calling pmdp_invalidate() for a present pmd. And
for good measure let's add a warning to all implementations of
pmdp_invalidate[_ad](). I've manually reviewed all other
pmdp_invalidate[_ad]() call sites and believe all others to be conformant.
This is a theoretical bug found during code review. I don't have any test
case to trigger it in practice.

At the moment, the amount of memory allocated for stats related structs in
the mem_cgroup corresponds to the size of enum node_stat_item. However
not all fields in enum node_stat_item have corresponding memcg stats. So,
let's use indirection mechanism similar to the one used for memcg vmstats
management.
For a given x86_64 config, the size of stats with and without patch is:
structs size in bytes w/o with
struct lruvec_stats 1128 648
struct lruvec_stats_percpu 752 432
struct memcg_vmstats 1832 1352
struct memcg_vmstats_percpu 1280 960
The memory savings are further compounded by the fact that these structs
are allocated for each cpu and for each node. To be precise, for each
memcg the memory saved would be:
Memory saved = ((21 * 3 * NR_NODES) + (21 * 2 * NR_NODES * NR_CPUS) +
(21 * 3) + (21 * 2 * NR_CPUS)) * sizeof(long)
Where 21 is the number of fields eliminated.

Patch series "memcg: reduce memory consumption by memcg stats", v4.
Most of the memory overhead of a memcg object is due to memcg stats
maintained by the kernel. Since stats updates happen in performance
critical codepaths, the stats are maintained per-cpu and numa specific
stats are maintained per-node * per-cpu. This drastically increase the
overhead on large machines i.e. large of CPUs and multiple numa nodes.
This patch series tries to reduce the overhead by at least not allocating
the memory for stats which are not memcg specific.
This patch (of 8):
mem_cgroup_events_index is a translation table to get the right index of
the memcg relevant entry for the general vm_event_item. At the moment, it
is defined as integer array. However on a typical system the max entry of
vm_event_item (NR_VM_EVENT_ITEMS) is 113, so we don't need to use int as
storage type of the array. For now just use int8_t as type and add a
BUILD_BUG_ON().
Another benefit of this change is that the translation table fits in 2
cachelines while previously it would require 8 cachelines (assuming 64
bytes cacheline).

In __folio_remove_rmap(), a large folio is added to deferred split list if
any page in a folio loses its final mapping. But it is possible that the
folio is fully unmapped and adding it to deferred split list is
unnecessary.
For PMD-mapped THPs, that was not really an issue, because removing the
last PMD mapping in the absence of PTE mappings would not have added the
folio to the deferred split queue.
However, for PTE-mapped THPs, which are now more prominent due to mTHP,
they are always added to the deferred split queue. One side effect is
that the THP_DEFERRED_SPLIT_PAGE stat for a PTE-mapped folio can be
unintentionally increased, making it look like there are many partially
mapped folios -- although the whole folio is fully unmapped stepwise.
Core-mm now tries batch-unmapping consecutive PTEs of PTE-mapped THPs
where possible starting from commit b06dc281aa ("mm/rmap: introduce
folio_remove_rmap_[pte|ptes|pmd]()"). When it happens, a whole PTE-mapped
folio is unmapped in one go and can avoid being added to deferred split
list, reducing the THP_DEFERRED_SPLIT_PAGE noise. But there will still be
noise when we cannot batch-unmap a complete PTE-mapped folio in one go --
or where this type of batching is not implemented yet, e.g., migration.
To avoid the unnecessary addition, folio->_nr_pages_mapped is checked to
tell if the whole folio is unmapped. If the folio is already on deferred
split list, it will be skipped, too.
Note: commit 98046944a159 ("mm: huge_memory: add the missing
folio_test_pmd_mappable() for THP split statistics") tried to exclude mTHP
deferred split stats from THP_DEFERRED_SPLIT_PAGE, but it does not fix the
above issue. A fully unmapped PTE-mapped order-9 THP was still added to
deferred split list and counted as THP_DEFERRED_SPLIT_PAGE, since nr is

Define yet another DAMOS filter type, YOUNG. Like anon and memcg, the
type of filter will be applied to each page in the memory region, and see
if the page is accessed since the last check. Based on the 'matching'

Note that this commit is adding only the type definition. The
implementation should be made by DAMON operations sets. A commit for the

Patch series "mm/damon: add a DAMOS filter type for page granularity
access recheck".
DAMON provides its best-effort accuracy-overhead tradeoff under the
user-defined ranges of acceptable level of the monitoring accuracy and
overhead. A recent discussion for tiered memory management support from
DAMON[1] concluded that finding memory regions of specific access pattern
with low overhead despite of low accuracy via DAMON first, and then double
checking the access of the region again in a finer (e.g., page)
granularity could be a useful strategy for some DAMOS schemes.
Add a new type of DAMOS filter, namely 'young' for such a case. It checks
each page of DAMOS target region is accessed since the last check, and
filters it out or in if 'matching' parameter is 'true' or 'false',
respectively.
Because this is a filter type that applied in page granularity, the
support depends on DAMON operations set, similar to 'anon' and 'memcg'
DAMOS filter types. Implement the support on the DAMON operations set for
the physical address space, 'paddr', since one of the expected usages[1]
is based on the physical address space.

Instead of checking the anon_vma early in the fault path where all page
faults pay the cost, delay it until we know we're going to need the
anon_vma to be filled in. This will have a slight negative effect on the
first fault in an anonymous VMA, but it shortens every other page fault.
It also makes the code slightly cleaner as the anon and file backed fault
handling look more similar.
The Intel kernel test bot reports a 3x improvement in vm-scalability
throughput with the small-allocs-mt test. This is clearly an extreme
situation that won't be replicated in any real-world workload, but it's a

wb_calc_thresh() is calculating wb's share of bg_thresh in the global
domain. However in case of cgroup writeback this is not the right
thing to do. Consider the following domain hierarchy:
global domain (> 20G)
/ \
cgroup1 (10G) cgroup2 (10G)
| |
bdi wb1 wb2
and assume wb1 and wb2 have the same bandwidth and the background
threshold is set at 10%. The bg_thresh of cgroup1 and cgroup2 is going
to be 1G. Now because wb_calc_thresh(mdtc->wb, mdtc->bg_thresh)
calculates per-wb threshold in the global domain as (wb bandwidth) /
(domain bandwidth) it returns bg_thresh for wb1 as 0.5G although it has
nobody to compete against in cgroup1.
Fix the problem by calculating wb's share of bg_thresh in the cgroup
domain.
Test as following:
/* make it easier to observe the issue */
echo 300000 > /proc/sys/vm/dirty_expire_centisecs
echo 100 > /proc/sys/vm/dirty_writeback_centisecs
/* run fio in wb1 */
cd /sys/fs/cgroup
echo "+memory +io" > cgroup.subtree_control
mkdir group1
cd group1
echo 10G > memory.high
echo 10G > memory.max
echo $$ > cgroup.procs
mkfs.ext4 -F /dev/vdb
mount /dev/vdb /bdi1/
fio -name test -filename=/bdi1/file -size=600M -ioengine=libaio -bs=4K \
-iodepth=1 -rw=write -direct=0 --time_based -runtime=600 -invalidate=0
/* run fio in wb2 with a new shell */
cd /sys/fs/cgroup
mkdir group2
cd group2
echo 10G > memory.high
echo 10G > memory.max
echo $$ > cgroup.procs
mkfs.ext4 -F /dev/vdc
mount /dev/vdc /bdi2/
fio -name test -filename=/bdi2/file -size=600M -ioengine=libaio -bs=4K \
-iodepth=1 -rw=write -direct=0 --time_based -runtime=600 -invalidate=0
Before fix, the wrttien pages of wb1 and wb2 reported from
toos/writeback/wb_monitor.py keep growing. After fix, rare written pages
are accumulated.
There is no obvious change in fio result.

This patch (of 5):
/sys/kernel/debug/bdi/xxx/stats is supposed to show writeback information
of whole bdi, but only writeback information of bdi in root cgroup is
collected. So writeback information in non-root cgroup are missing now.
To be more specific, considering following case:
/* create writeback cgroup */
cd /sys/fs/cgroup
echo "+memory +io" > cgroup.subtree_control
mkdir group1
cd group1
echo $$ > cgroup.procs
/* do writeback in cgroup */
fio -name test -filename=/dev/vdb ...
/* get writeback info of bdi */
cat /sys/kernel/debug/bdi/xxx/stats
The cat result unexpectedly implies that there is no writeback on target
bdi.
Fix this by collecting stats of all wb in bdi instead of only wb in
root cgroup.

We want to limit the use of page_mapcount() to places where absolutely
required, to prepare for kernel configs where we won't keep track of
per-page mapcounts in large folios.
khugepaged is one of the remaining "more challenging" page_mapcount()
users, but we might be able to move away from page_mapcount() without
resulting in a significant behavior change that would warrant
special-casing based on kernel configs.
In 2020, we first added support to khugepaged for collapsing COW-shared
pages via commit 9445689f3b ("khugepaged: allow to collapse a page
shared across fork"), followed by support for collapsing PTE-mapped THP in
commit 5503fbf2b0 ("khugepaged: allow to collapse PTE-mapped compound
pages") and limiting the memory waste via the "page_count() > 1" check in
commit 71a2c112a0 ("khugepaged: introduce 'max_ptes_shared' tunable").
As a default, khugepaged will allow up to half of the PTEs to map shared
pages: where page_mapcount() > 1. MADV_COLLAPSE ignores the khugepaged
setting.
khugepaged does currently not care about swapcache page references, and
does not check under folio lock: so in some corner cases the "shared vs.
exclusive" detection might be a bit off, making us detect "exclusive" when
it's actually "shared".
Most of our anonymous folios in the system are usually exclusive. We
frequently see sharing of anonymous folios for a short period of time,
after which our short-lived suprocesses either quit or exec().
There are some famous examples, though, where child processes exist for a
long time, and where memory is COW-shared with a lot of processes
(webservers, webbrowsers, sshd, ...) and COW-sharing is crucial for
reducing the memory footprint. We don't want to suddenly change the
behavior to result in a significant increase in memory waste.
Interestingly, khugepaged will only collapse an anonymous THP if at least
one PTE is writable. After fork(), that means that something (usually a
page fault) populated at least a single exclusive anonymous THP in that
PMD range.
So ... what happens when we switch to "is this folio mapped shared"
instead of "is this page mapped shared" by using
folio_likely_mapped_shared()?
For "not-COW-shared" folios, small folios and for THPs (large folios) that
are completely mapped into at least one process, switching to
folio_likely_mapped_shared() will not result in a change.
We'll only see a change for COW-shared PTE-mapped THPs that are partially
mapped into all involved processes.
There are two cases to consider:
(A) folio_likely_mapped_shared() returns "false" for a PTE-mapped THP
If the folio is detected as exclusive, and it actually is exclusive,
there is no change: page_mapcount() == 1. This is the common case
without fork() or with short-lived child processes.
folio_likely_mapped_shared() might currently still detect a folio as
exclusive although it is shared (false negatives): if the first page is
not mapped multiple times and if the average per-page mapcount is smaller
than 1, implying that (1) the folio is partially mapped and (2) if we are
responsible for many mapcounts by mapping many pages others can't
("mostly exclusive") (3) if we are not responsible for many mapcounts by
mapping little pages ("mostly shared") it won't make a big impact on the
end result.
So while we might now detect a page as "exclusive" although it isn't,
it's not expected to make a big difference in common cases.
(B) folio_likely_mapped_shared() returns "true" for a PTE-mapped THP
folio_likely_mapped_shared() will never detect a large anonymous folio
as shared although it is exclusive: there are no false positives.
If we detect a THP as shared, at least one page of the THP is mapped by
another process. It could well be that some pages are actually exclusive.
For example, our child processes could have unmapped/COW'ed some pages
such that they would now be exclusive to out process, which we now
would treat as still-shared.
Examples:
(1) Parent maps all pages of a THP, child maps some pages. We detect
all pages in the parent as shared although some are actually
exclusive.
(2) Parent maps all but some page of a THP, child maps the remainder.
We detect all pages of the THP that the parent maps as shared
although they are all exclusive.
In (1) we wouldn't collapse a THP right now already: no PTE
is writable, because a write fault would have resulted in COW of a
single page and the parent would no longer map all pages of that THP.
For (2) we would have collapsed a THP in the parent so far, now we
wouldn't as long as the child process is still alive: unless the child
process unmaps the remaining THP pages or we decide to split that THP.
Possibly, the child COW'ed many pages, meaning that it's likely that
we can populate a THP for our child first, and then for our parent.
For (2), we are making really bad use of the THP in the first
place (not even mapped completely in at least one process). If the
THP would be completely partially mapped, it would be on the deferred
split queue where we would split it lazily later.
For short-running child processes, we don't particularly care. For
long-running processes, the expectation is that such scenarios are
rather rare: further, a THP might be best placed if most data in the
PMD range is actually written, implying that we'll have to COW more
pages first before khugepaged would collapse it.
To summarize, in the common case, this change is not expected to matter
much. The more common application of khugepaged operates on exclusive
pages, either before fork() or after a child quit.
Can we improve (A)? Yes, if we implement more precise tracking of "mapped
shared" vs. "mapped exclusively", we could get rid of the false negatives
completely.
Can we improve (B)? We could count how many pages of a large folio we map
inside the current page table and detect that we are responsible for most
of the folio mapcount and conclude "as good as exclusive", which might
help in some cases. ... but likely, some other mechanism should detect
that the THP is not a good use in the scenario (not even mapped completely
in a single process) and try splitting that folio lazily etc.
We'll move the folio_test_anon() check before our "shared" check, so we
might get more expressive results for SCAN_EXCEED_SHARED_PTE: this order
of checks now matches the one in __collapse_huge_page_isolate(). Extend
documentation.

A data-race issue in memcg rstat occurs when two distinct code paths
access the same 4-byte region concurrently. KCSAN detection triggers the
following BUG as a result.
BUG: KCSAN: data-race in __count_memcg_events / mem_cgroup_css_rstat_flush
write to 0xffffe8ffff98e300 of 4 bytes by task 5274 on cpu 17:

<snip>
value changed: 0x00000029 -> 0x00000000
The race occurs because two code paths access the same "stats_updates"
location. Although "stats_updates" is a per-CPU variable, it is remotely
accessed by another CPU at
cgroup_rstat_flush_locked()->mem_cgroup_css_rstat_flush(), leading to the
data race mentioned.
Considering that memcg_rstat_updated() is in the hot code path, adding a
lock to protect it may not be desirable, especially since this variable
pertains solely to statistics.
Therefore, annotating accesses to stats_updates with READ/WRITE_ONCE() can
prevent KCSAN splats and potential partial reads/writes.

This patch optimizes lazyfreeing with PTE-mapped mTHP[1] (Inspired by
David Hildenbrand[2]). We aim to avoid unnecessary folio splitting if the
large folio is fully mapped within the target range.
If a large folio is locked or shared, or if we fail to split it, we just
leave it in place and advance to the next PTE in the range. But note that
the behavior is changed; previously, any failure of this sort would cause
the entire operation to give up. As large folios become more common,
sticking to the old way could result in wasted opportunities.
On an Intel I5 CPU, lazyfreeing a 1GiB VMA backed by PTE-mapped folios of
the same size results in the following runtimes for madvise(MADV_FREE) in

new callers: ever since fd4a7ac329 ("mm: migrate: try again if THP split
is failed due to page refcnt") we return -EAGAIN on unexpected folio
references, not -EBUSY.
Let's fix that and also document which other return values we can

Allow page_table_check hooks to check over userfaultfd wr-protect criteria
upon pgtable updates. The rule is no co-existance allowed for any
writable flag against userfault wr-protect flag.
This should be better than c2da319c2e, where we used to only sanitize such
issues during a pgtable walk, but when hitting such issue we don't have a
good chance to know where does that writable bit came from [1], so that
even the pgtable walk exposes a kernel bug (which is still helpful on
triaging) but not easy to track and debug.
Now we switch to track the source. It's much easier too with the recent
introduction of page table check.
There are some limitations with using the page table check here for
userfaultfd wr-protect purpose:
- It is only enabled with explicit enablement of page table check configs
and/or boot parameters, but should be good enough to track at least
syzbot issues, as syzbot should enable PAGE_TABLE_CHECK[_ENFORCED] for
x86 [1]. We used to have DEBUG_VM but it's now off for most distros,
while distros also normally not enable PAGE_TABLE_CHECK[_ENFORCED], which
is similar.
- It conditionally works with the ptep_modify_prot API. It will be
bypassed when e.g. XEN PV is enabled, however still work for most of the
rest scenarios, which should be the common cases so should be good
enough.
- Hugetlb check is a bit hairy, as the page table check cannot identify
hugetlb pte or normal pte via trapping at set_pte_at(), because of the
current design where hugetlb maps every layers to pte_t... For example,
the default set_huge_pte_at() can invoke set_pte_at() directly and lose
the hugetlb context, treating it the same as a normal pte_t. So far it's
fine because we have huge_pte_uffd_wp() always equals to pte_uffd_wp() as
long as supported (x86 only). It'll be a bigger problem when we'll
define _PAGE_UFFD_WP differently at various pgtable levels, because then

Turn buffer head documentation into its own document, and make many
general improvements to the docs. Obviously there is much more that could
be done. Tested with make htmldocs.
This patch (of 8):

We want to limit the use of page_mapcount() to the places where it is
absolutely necessary.
If our folio has a stable node, it is a (small) KSM folio -- see
folio_stable_node(). Let's use folio_mapcount() in stable_tree_search()
instead, which results in no functional change.
The mapcount > 1 check is a bit confusing, because that's usually a check
for page sharing. Looks like the reason is that we are guaranteed to not
exceed ksm_max_page_sharing for the tree KSM folio when merging with that.
Let's update the documentation to make that clearer.

These knobs offer more fine-grained control to userspace than needed and
directly expose/influence kernel implementation; remove them.
For disabling same_filled handling, there is no logical reason to refuse
storing same-filled pages more efficiently and opt for compression.
Scanning pages for patterns may be an argument, but the page contents will
be read into the CPU cache anyway during compression. Also, removing the
same_filled handling code does not move the needle significantly in terms
of performance anyway [1].
For disabling non_same_filled handling, it was added when the compressed
pages in zswap were not being properly charged to memcgs, as workloads
could escape the accounting with compression [2]. This is no longer the
case after commit f4840ccfca ("zswap: memcg accounting"), and using
zswap without compression does not make much sense.

Currently, zswap_store() checks zswap_same_filled_pages_enabled, kmaps the
folio, then calls zswap_is_page_same_filled() to check the folio contents.
Move this logic into zswap_is_page_same_filled() as well (and rename it
to use 'folio' while we are at it).
This makes zswap_store() cleaner, and makes following changes to that
logic contained within the helper.
While we are at it:
- Rename the insert_entry label to store_entry to match xa_store().
- Add comment headers for same-filled functions and the main API
functions (load, store, invalidate, swapon, swapoff).
No functional change intended.

Patch series "zswap same-filled and limit checking cleanups", v3.
Miscellaneous cleanups for limit checking and same-filled handling in the
store path. This series was broken out of the "zswap: store zero-filled
pages more efficiently" series [1]. It contains the cleanups and drops
the main functional changes.
[1]https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20240325235018.2028408-1-yosryahmed@google.com/
This patch (of 4):
The cleanup code in zswap_store() is not pretty, particularly the 'shrink'
label at the bottom that ends up jumping between cleanup labels.
Instead of having a dedicated label to shrink the pool, just use
zswap_pool_reached_full directly to figure out if the pool needs
shrinking. zswap_pool_reached_full should be true if and only if the pool
needs shrinking.
The only caveat is that the value of zswap_pool_reached_full may be
changed by concurrent zswap_store() calls between checking the limit and
testing zswap_pool_reached_full in the cleanup code. This is fine
because:
- If zswap_pool_reached_full was true during limit checking then became
false during the cleanup code, then someone else already took care of
shrinking the pool and there is no need to queue the worker. That
would be a good change.
- If zswap_pool_reached_full was false during limit checking then became
true during the cleanup code, then someone else hit the limit
meanwhile. In this case, both threads will try to queue the worker,
but it never gets queued more than once anyway. Also, calling
queue_work() multiple times when the limit is hit could already happen
today, so this isn't a significant change in any way.

Currently, compaction_capture() does not allow lower-order allocations to
directly capture the movable free pages, even though lower-order
allocations might also be requesting movable pages, that can lead to more
compaction scanning. And, with the enablement of mTHP, such situations
will become more common.
Thus allowing lower-order (mTHP) allocations of movable page types
directly capture the movable free pages can avoid unnecessary compaction
scanning, meanwhile that won't pollute the movable pageblock. With
testing 1M mTHP compaction, it can be seen that compaction scanning is
significantly reduced.

Patch series "mm: add per-order mTHP alloc and swpout counters", v6.
The patchset introduces a framework to facilitate mTHP counters, starting
with the allocation and swap-out counters. Currently, only four new nodes
are appended to the stats directory for each mTHP size.
/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/hugepages-<size>/stats
anon_fault_alloc
anon_fault_fallback
anon_fault_fallback_charge
anon_swpout
anon_swpout_fallback
These nodes are crucial for us to monitor the fragmentation levels of both
the buddy system and the swap partitions. In the future, we may consider
adding additional nodes for further insights.
This patch (of 4):
Profiling a system blindly with mTHP has become challenging due to the
lack of visibility into its operations. Presenting the success rate of
mTHP allocations appears to be pressing need.
Recently, I've been experiencing significant difficulty debugging
performance improvements and regressions without these figures. It's
crucial for us to understand the true effectiveness of mTHP in real-world
scenarios, especially in systems with fragmented memory.
This patch establishes the framework for per-order mTHP counters. It
begins by introducing the anon_fault_alloc and anon_fault_fallback
counters. Additionally, to maintain consistency with
thp_fault_fallback_charge in /proc/vmstat, this patch also tracks
anon_fault_fallback_charge when mem_cgroup_charge fails for mTHP.
Incorporating additional counters should now be straightforward as well.

This is the first part of page to folio transfer on KSM. Since only

pages to folios.
This patchset could reduce ksm.o 57kbytes from 2541776 bytes on latest

ksm_get_folio for get_ksm_page to use folio instead of pages to save a
couple of compound_head calls.

Let's simplify and only print the page mapcount: we already print the
large folio mapcount and the entire folio mapcount for large folios
separately; that should be sufficient to figure out what's happening.
While at it, print the page mapcount also if it had an underflow,
filtering out only typed pages.

Note that we reject any large folios.
There is a lot more folio conversion to be had, but that has to wait for

We want to limit the use of page_mapcount() to the places where it is
absolutely necessary.
For tracing purposes, we use page_mapcount() in
__alloc_contig_migrate_range(). Adding that mapcount to total_mapped
sounds strange: total_migrated and total_reclaimed would count each page
only once, not multiple times.
But then, isolate_migratepages_range() adds each folio only once to the
list. So for large folios, we would query the mapcount of the first page
of the folio, which doesn't make too much sense for large folios.
Let's simply use folio_mapped() * folio_nr_pages(), which makes more sense
as nr_migratepages is also incremented by the number of pages in the folio
in case of successful migration.

either way when unmapping.
As indicated already in commit 10ebac4f95 ("mm/memory: optimize
unmap/zap with PTE-mapped THP"), we already documented "If we ever have a
cheap folio_mapcount(), we might just want to check for underflows
there.".
There is no change for small folios. For large folios, we'll now catch
more underflows when batch-unmapping, because instead of only testing the
mapcount of the first subpage, we'll test if the folio mapcount
underflows.

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().

follow_pte() is now our main function to lookup PTEs in VM_PFNMAP/VM_IO
VMAs. Let's perform some more sanity checks to make this exported
function harder to abuse.
Further, extend the doc a bit, it still focuses on the KVM use case with
MMU notifiers. Drop the KVM+follow_pfn() comment, follow_pfn() is no
more, and we have other users nowadays.
Also extend the doc regarding refcounted pages and the interaction with
MMU notifiers.
KVM is one example that uses MMU notifiers and can deal with refcounted
pages properly. VFIO is one example that doesn't use MMU notifiers, and
to prevent use-after-free, rejects refcounted pages: pfn_valid(pfn) &&
!PageReserved(pfn_to_page(pfn)). Protection changes are less of a concern
for users like VFIO: the behavior is similar to longterm-pinning a page,
and getting the PTE protection changed afterwards.
The primary concern with refcounted pages is use-after-free, which callers
should be aware of.

The current implementation treats emulated memory devices, such as CXL1.1
type3 memory, as normal DRAM when they are emulated as normal memory
(E820_TYPE_RAM). However, these emulated devices have different
characteristics than traditional DRAM, making it important to distinguish
them. Thus, we modify the tiered memory initialization process to
introduce a delay specifically for CPUless NUMA nodes. This delay ensures
that the memory tier initialization for these nodes is deferred until HMAT
information is obtained during the boot process. Finally, demotion tables
are recalculated at the end.
* late_initcall(memory_tier_late_init);
Some device drivers may have initialized memory tiers between
`memory_tier_init()` and `memory_tier_late_init()`, potentially bringing
online memory nodes and configuring memory tiers. They should be
excluded in the late init.
* Handle cases where there is no HMAT when creating memory tiers
There is a scenario where a CPUless node does not provide HMAT
information. If no HMAT is specified, it falls back to using the
default DRAM tier.
* Introduce another new lock `default_dram_perf_lock` for adist
calculation In the current implementation, iterating through CPUlist
nodes requires holding the `memory_tier_lock`. However,
`mt_calc_adistance()` will end up trying to acquire the same lock,
leading to a potential deadlock. Therefore, we propose introducing a
standalone `default_dram_perf_lock` to protect `default_dram_perf_*`.
This approach not only avoids deadlock but also prevents holding a large
lock simultaneously.
* Upgrade `set_node_memory_tier` to support additional cases, including
default DRAM, late CPUless, and hot-plugged initializations. To cover
hot-plugged memory nodes, `mt_calc_adistance()` and
`mt_find_alloc_memory_type()` are moved into `set_node_memory_tier()` to
handle cases where memtype is not initialized and where HMAT information
is available.
* Introduce `default_memory_types` for those memory types that are not
initialized by device drivers. Because late initialized memory and
default DRAM memory need to be managed, a default memory type is created
for storing all memory types that are not initialized by device drivers
and as a fallback.

Patch series "Improved Memory Tier Creation for CPUless NUMA Nodes", v11.
When a memory device, such as CXL1.1 type3 memory, is emulated as normal
memory (E820_TYPE_RAM), the memory device is indistinguishable from normal
DRAM in terms of memory tiering with the current implementation. The
current memory tiering assigns all detected normal memory nodes to the
same DRAM tier. This results in normal memory devices with different
attributions being unable to be assigned to the correct memory tier,
leading to the inability to migrate pages between different types of
memory.
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/PH0PR08MB7955E9F08CCB64F23963B5C3A860A@PH0PR08MB7955.namprd08.prod.outlook.com/T/
This patchset automatically resolves the issues. It delays the
initialization of memory tiers for CPUless NUMA nodes until they obtain
HMAT information and after all devices are initialized at boot time,
eliminating the need for user intervention. If no HMAT is specified, it
falls back to using `default_dram_type`.
Example usecase:
We have CXL memory on the host, and we create VMs with a new system memory
device backed by host CXL memory. We inject CXL memory performance
attributes through QEMU, and the guest now sees memory nodes with
performance attributes in HMAT. With this change, we enable the guest
kernel to construct the correct memory tiering for the memory nodes.
This patch (of 2):
Since different memory devices require finding, allocating, and putting
memory types, these common steps are abstracted in this patch, enhancing
the scalability and conciseness of the code.

vm_map_ram() uses IS_ERR() to validate the return value of vb_alloc(). If
vm_map_ram(page, 0, 0) is executed, vb_alloc(0, GFP_KERNEL) would return
NULL. In such a case, IS_ERR() cannot handle the return value and lead to
kernel panic by vmap_pages_range_noflush() at last. To resolve this
issue, return ERR_PTR(-EINVAL) if the size is 0.

order. However, the constraint is not necessary anymore because SLAB has
been removed and SLUB doesn't need to comply with the constraint. Thus,
kmalloc 96 and 192 caches can be created after the other size kmalloc
caches are created instead of checking every time to find their order to

Implement a replacement for launder_folio. The key feature of
invalidate_inode_pages2() is that it locks each folio individually, unmaps
it to prevent mmap'd accesses interfering and calls the ->launder_folio()
address_space op to flush it. This has problems: firstly, each folio is
written individually as one or more small writes; secondly, adjacent folios
cannot be added so easily into the laundry; thirdly, it's yet another op to
implement.
Instead, use the invalidate lock to cause anyone wanting to add a folio to
the inode to wait, then unmap all the folios if we have mmaps, then,
conditionally, use ->writepages() to flush any dirty data back and then
discard all pages.
The invalidate lock prevents ->read_iter(), ->write_iter() and faulting
through mmap all from adding pages for the duration.
This is then used from netfslib to handle the flusing in unbuffered and
direct writes.

Commit 284f17ac13 ("mm/slub: handle bulk and single object freeing
separately") splits single and bulk object freeing in two functions
slab_free() and slab_free_bulk() which leads slab_free() to call
slab_free_hook() directly instead of slab_free_freelist_hook().
If `init_on_free` is set, slab_free_hook() zeroes the object.
Afterward, if `slub_debug=F` and `CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_HARDENED` are
set, the do_slab_free() slowpath executes freelist consistency
checks and try to decode a zeroed freepointer which leads to a
"Freepointer corrupt" detection in check_object().
During bulk free, slab_free_freelist_hook() isn't affected as it always
sets it objects freepointer using set_freepointer() to maintain its
reconstructed freelist after `init_on_free`.
For single free, object's freepointer thus needs to be avoided when
stored outside the object if `init_on_free` is set. The freepointer left
as is, check_object() may later detect an invalid pointer value due to
objects overflow.
To reproduce, set `slub_debug=FU init_on_free=1 log_level=7` on the
command line of a kernel build with `CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_HARDENED=y`.

The hugetlb_cma code passes 0 in the order_per_bit argument to
cma_declare_contiguous_nid (the alignment, computed using the page order,
is correctly passed in).
This causes a bit in the cma allocation bitmap to always represent a 4k
page, making the bitmaps potentially very large, and slower.
It would create bitmaps that would be pretty big. E.g. for a 4k page
size on x86, hugetlb_cma=64G would mean a bitmap size of (64G / 4k) / 8
== 2M. With HUGETLB_PAGE_ORDER as order_per_bit, as intended, this
would be (64G / 2M) / 8 == 4k. So, that's quite a difference.
Also, this restricted the hugetlb_cma area to ((PAGE_SIZE <<
MAX_PAGE_ORDER) * 8) * PAGE_SIZE (e.g. 128G on x86) , since
bitmap_alloc uses normal page allocation, and is thus restricted by
MAX_PAGE_ORDER. Specifying anything about that would fail the CMA
initialization.
So, correctly pass in the order instead.

cma_init_reserved_mem uses IS_ALIGNED to check if the size represented by
one bit in the cma allocation bitmask is aligned with
CMA_MIN_ALIGNMENT_BYTES (pageblock size).
However, this is too strict, as this will fail if order_per_bit >
pageblock_order, which is a valid configuration.
We could check IS_ALIGNED both ways, but since both numbers are powers of
two, no check is needed at all.

This helps make the code more readable, and alleviates the stack by
allowing us to consolidate many fault-related variables into an individual
pointer.
This patch (of 3):
Now that hugetlb_fault() has a vm_fault available for fault tracking, use
it throughout. This cleans up the code by removing 2 variables, and
prepares hugetlb_fault() to take in a struct vm_fault argument.

Patch series "mm/gup: consistently call it GUP-fast".
Some cleanups around function names, comments and the config option of
"GUP-fast" -- GUP without "lock" safety belts on.
With this cleanup it's easy to judge which functions are GUP-fast
specific. We now consistently call it "GUP-fast", avoiding mixing it with
"fast GUP", "lockless", or simply "gup" (which I always considered
confusing in the ode).
So the magic now happens in functions that contain "gup_fast", whereby
gup_fast() is the entry point into that magic. Comments consistently
reference either "GUP-fast" or "gup_fast()".
This patch (of 3):
Let's consistently call the "fast-only" part of GUP "GUP-fast" and rename
all relevant internal functions to start with "gup_fast", to make it
clearer that this is not ordinary GUP. The current mixture of "lockless",
"gup" and "gup_fast" is confusing.
Further, avoid the term "huge" when talking about a "leaf" -- for example,
we nowadays check pmd_leaf() because pmd_huge() is gone. For the
"hugepd"/"hugepte" stuff, it's part of the name ("is_hugepd"), so that
stays.
What remains is the "external" interface:
* get_user_pages_fast_only()
* get_user_pages_fast()
* pin_user_pages_fast()
The high-level internal functions for GUP-fast (+slow fallback) are now:
* internal_get_user_pages_fast() -> gup_fast_fallback()
* lockless_pages_from_mm() -> gup_fast()
The basic GUP-fast walker functions:
* gup_pgd_range() -> gup_fast_pgd_range()
* gup_p4d_range() -> gup_fast_p4d_range()
* gup_pud_range() -> gup_fast_pud_range()
* gup_pmd_range() -> gup_fast_pmd_range()
* gup_pte_range() -> gup_fast_pte_range()
* gup_huge_pgd() -> gup_fast_pgd_leaf()
* gup_huge_pud() -> gup_fast_pud_leaf()
* gup_huge_pmd() -> gup_fast_pmd_leaf()
The weird hugepd stuff:
* gup_huge_pd() -> gup_fast_hugepd()
* gup_hugepte() -> gup_fast_hugepte()
The weird devmap stuff:
* __gup_device_huge_pud() -> gup_fast_devmap_pud_leaf()
* __gup_device_huge_pmd -> gup_fast_devmap_pmd_leaf()
* __gup_device_huge() -> gup_fast_devmap_leaf()
* undo_dev_pagemap() -> gup_fast_undo_dev_pagemap()
Helper functions:
* unpin_user_pages_lockless() -> gup_fast_unpin_user_pages()
* gup_fast_folio_allowed() is already properly named
* gup_fast_permitted() is already properly named
With "gup_fast()", we now even have a function that is referred to in
comment in mm/mmu_gather.c.

actually removes a call to compound_head(), but more importantly, it

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 swap supports storing all mTHP sizes, avoid splitting large
folios before swap-out. This benefits performance of the swap-out path by
eliding split_folio_to_list(), which is expensive, and also sets us up for
swapping in large folios in a future series.
If the folio is partially mapped, we continue to split it since we want to
avoid the extra IO overhead and storage of writing out pages
uneccessarily.
THP_SWPOUT and THP_SWPOUT_FALLBACK counters should continue to count
events only for PMD-mappable folios to avoid user confusion. THP_SWPOUT
already has the appropriate guard. Add a guard for THP_SWPOUT_FALLBACK.
It may be appropriate to add per-size counters in future.

Multi-size THP enables performance improvements by allocating large,
pte-mapped folios for anonymous memory. However I've observed that on an
arm64 system running a parallel workload (e.g. kernel compilation) across
many cores, under high memory pressure, the speed regresses. This is due
to bottlenecking on the increased number of TLBIs added due to all the
extra folio splitting when the large folios are swapped out.
Therefore, solve this regression by adding support for swapping out mTHP
without needing to split the folio, just like is already done for
PMD-sized THP. This change only applies when CONFIG_THP_SWAP is enabled,
and when the swap backing store is a non-rotating block device. These are
the same constraints as for the existing PMD-sized THP swap-out support.
Note that no attempt is made to swap-in (m)THP here - this is still done
page-by-page, like for PMD-sized THP. But swapping-out mTHP is a
prerequisite for swapping-in mTHP.
The main change here is to improve the swap entry allocator so that it can
allocate any power-of-2 number of contiguous entries between [1, (1 <<
PMD_ORDER)]. This is done by allocating a cluster for each distinct order
and allocating sequentially from it until the cluster is full. This
ensures that we don't need to search the map and we get no fragmentation
due to alignment padding for different orders in the cluster. If there is
no current cluster for a given order, we attempt to allocate a free
cluster from the list. If there are no free clusters, we fail the
allocation and the caller can fall back to splitting the folio and
allocates individual entries (as per existing PMD-sized THP fallback).
The per-order current clusters are maintained per-cpu using the existing
infrastructure. This is done to avoid interleving pages from different
tasks, which would prevent IO being batched. This is already done for the
order-0 allocations so we follow the same pattern.
As is done for order-0 per-cpu clusters, the scanner now can steal order-0
entries from any per-cpu-per-order reserved cluster. This ensures that
when the swap file is getting full, space doesn't get tied up in the
per-cpu reserves.
This change only modifies swap to be able to accept any order mTHP. It
doesn't change the callers to elide doing the actual split. That will be
done in separate changes.

let's change get_swap_pages() to take a folio order parameter instead of
nr_pages. This makes the interface self-documenting; a power-of-2 number

simplifies accessing it.

struct percpu_cluster stores the index of cpu's current cluster and the
offset of the next entry that will be allocated for the cpu. These two
pieces of information are redundant because the cluster index is just
(offset / SWAPFILE_CLUSTER). The only reason for explicitly keeping the
cluster index is because the structure used for it also has a flag to
indicate "no cluster". However this data structure also contains a spin
lock, which is never used in this context, as a side effect the code
copies the spinlock_t structure, which is questionable coding practice in
my view.
So let's clean this up and store only the next offset, and use a sentinal
value (SWAP_NEXT_INVALID) to indicate "no cluster". SWAP_NEXT_INVALID is
chosen to be 0, because 0 will never be seen legitimately; The first page
in the swap file is the swap header, which is always marked bad to prevent
it from being allocated as an entry. This also prevents the cluster to
which it belongs being marked free, so it will never appear on the free
list.
This change saves 16 bytes per cpu. And given we are shortly going to
extend this mechanism to be per-cpu-AND-per-order, we will end up saving
16 * 9 = 144 bytes per cpu, which adds up if you have 256 cpus in the
system.

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.

Patch series "Swap-out mTHP without splitting", v7.
This series adds support for swapping out multi-size THP (mTHP) without
needing to first split the large folio via
split_huge_page_to_list_to_order(). It closely follows the approach
already used to swap-out PMD-sized THP.
There are a couple of reasons for swapping out mTHP without splitting:
- Performance: It is expensive to split a large folio and under
extreme memory pressure some workloads regressed performance when
using 64K mTHP vs 4K small folios because of this extra cost in the
swap-out path. This series not only eliminates the regression but
makes it faster to swap out 64K mTHP vs 4K small folios.
- Memory fragmentation avoidance: If we can avoid splitting a large
folio memory is less likely to become fragmented, making it easier to
re-allocate a large folio in future.
- Performance: Enables a separate series [7] to swap-in whole mTHPs,
which means we won't lose the TLB-efficiency benefits of mTHP once the
memory has been through a swap cycle.
I've done what I thought was the smallest change possible, and as a
result, this approach is only employed when the swap is backed by a
non-rotating block device (just as PMD-sized THP is supported today).
Discussion against the RFC concluded that this is sufficient.
Performance Testing
===================
I've run some swap performance tests on Ampere Altra VM (arm64) with 8
CPUs. The VM is set up with a 35G block ram device as the swap device and
the test is run from inside a memcg limited to 40G memory. I've then run
`usemem` from vm-scalability with 70 processes, each allocating and
writing 1G of memory. I've repeated everything 6 times and taken the mean
performance improvement relative to 4K page baseline:
| alloc size | baseline | + this series |
| | mm-unstable (~v6.9-rc1) | |
|:-----------|------------------------:|------------------------:|
| 4K Page | 0.0% | 1.3% |
| 64K THP | -13.6% | 46.3% |
| 2M THP | 91.4% | 89.6% |
So with this change, the 64K swap performance goes from a 14% regression to a
46% improvement. While 2M shows a small regression I'm confident that this is
just noise.

This patch (of 7):
As preparation for supporting small-sized THP in the swap-out path,
without first needing to split to order-0, Remove the CLUSTER_FLAG_HUGE,
which, when present, always implies PMD-sized THP, which is the same as
the cluster size.
The only use of the flag was to determine whether a swap entry refers to a
single page or a PMD-sized THP in swap_page_trans_huge_swapped(). Instead
of relying on the flag, we now pass in order, which originates from the
folio's order. This allows the logic to work for folios of any order.
The one snag is that one of the swap_page_trans_huge_swapped() call sites
does not have the folio. But it was only being called there to shortcut a
call __try_to_reclaim_swap() in some cases. __try_to_reclaim_swap() gets
the folio and (via some other functions) calls
swap_page_trans_huge_swapped(). So I've removed the problematic call site
and believe the new logic should be functionally equivalent.
That said, removing the fast path means that we will take a reference and
trylock a large folio much more often, which we would like to avoid. The
next patch will solve this.
Removing CLUSTER_FLAG_HUGE also means we can remove split_swap_cluster()
which used to be called during folio splitting, since
split_swap_cluster()'s only job was to remove the flag.

Commit 44042b4498 ("mm/page_alloc: allow high-order pages to be stored
on the per-cpu lists") extends the PCP allocator to store THP pages, and
it determines whether to cache THP pages in PCP by comparing with
pageblock_order. But the pageblock_order is not always equal to THP
order. It might also be MAX_PAGE_ORDER, which could prevent PCP from
caching THP pages.
Therefore, using HPAGE_PMD_ORDER instead to determine the need for caching
THP for PCP will fix this issue

Patch series "khugepaged folio conversions".
We've been kind of hacking piecemeal at converting khugepaged to use
folios instead of compound pages, and so this patchset is a little larger
than it should be as I undo some of our wrong moves in the past. In
particular, collapse_file() now consistently uses 'new_folio' for the
freshly allocated folio and 'folio' for the one that's currently in use.
This patch (of 7):
This function has one caller, and the combined function is simpler to

Patch series "Unify vma_address and vma_pgoff_address".
The current vma_address() pretends that the ambiguity between head & tail
page is an advantage. If you pass a head page to vma_address(), it will
operate on all pages in the folio, while if you pass a tail page, it will
operate on a single page. That's not what any of the callers actually
want, so first convert all callers to use vma_pgoff_address() and then
rename vma_pgoff_address() to vma_address().
This patch (of 3):
If 'page' is the first page of a large folio then vma_address() will scan
for any page in the entire folio. This can lead to page_mapped_in_vma()
returning true if some of the tail pages are mapped and the head page is
not. This could lead to memory failure choosing to kill a task
unnecessarily.

Now the anonymous page allocation already supports multi-size THP (mTHP),
but the numa balancing still prohibits mTHP migration even though it is an
exclusive mapping, which is unreasonable.
Allow scanning mTHP:
Commit 859d4adc34 ("mm: numa: do not trap faults on shared data section
pages") skips shared CoW pages' NUMA page migration to avoid shared data
segment migration. In addition, commit 80d47f5de5 ("mm: don't try to
NUMA-migrate COW pages that have other uses") change to use page_count()
to avoid GUP pages migration, that will also skip the mTHP numa scanning.
Theoretically, we can use folio_maybe_dma_pinned() to detect the GUP
issue, although there is still a GUP race, the issue seems to have been
resolved by commit 80d47f5de5. Meanwhile, use the folio_likely_mapped_shared()
to skip shared CoW pages though this is not a precise sharers count. To
check if the folio is shared, ideally we want to make sure every page is
mapped to the same process, but doing that seems expensive and using
the estimated mapcount seems can work when running autonuma benchmark.
Allow migrating mTHP:
As mentioned in the previous thread[1], large folios (including THP) are
more susceptible to false sharing issues among threads than 4K base page,
leading to pages ping-pong back and forth during numa balancing, which is
currently not easy to resolve. Therefore, as a start to support mTHP numa
balancing, we can follow the PMD mapped THP's strategy, that means we can
reuse the 2-stage filter in should_numa_migrate_memory() to check if the
mTHP is being heavily contended among threads (through checking the CPU id
and pid of the last access) to avoid false sharing at some degree. Thus,
we can restore all PTE maps upon the first hint page fault of a large folio
to follow the PMD mapped THP's strategy. In the future, we can continue to
optimize the NUMA balancing algorithm to avoid the false sharing issue with
large folios as much as possible.

Fallback rates surpassing 90% have been observed on phones utilizing 64KiB
CONT-PTE mTHP. In these scenarios, when one out of every 16 PTEs fails to
allocate large folios, the remaining 15 PTEs fallback. Consequently,
invoking vma_thp_gfp_mask seems redundant in such cases. Furthermore,
abstaining from its use can also contribute to improved code readability.

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 6471384af2 ("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.

When memory is being placed, mmap() will take care to respect the guard
gaps of certain types of memory (VM_SHADOWSTACK, VM_GROWSUP and
VM_GROWSDOWN). In order to ensure guard gaps between mappings, mmap()
needs to consider two things:
1. That the new mapping isn't placed in an any existing mappings guard
gaps.
2. That the new mapping isn't placed such that any existing mappings
are not in *its* guard gaps.
The longstanding behavior of mmap() is to ensure 1, but not take any care
around 2. So for example, if there is a PAGE_SIZE free area, and a mmap()
with a PAGE_SIZE size, and a type that has a guard gap is being placed,
mmap() may place the shadow stack in the PAGE_SIZE free area. Then the
mapping that is supposed to have a guard gap will not have a gap to the
adjacent VMA.
For MAP_GROWSDOWN/VM_GROWSDOWN and MAP_GROWSUP/VM_GROWSUP this has not
been a problem in practice because applications place these kinds of
mappings very early, when there is not many mappings to find a space
between. But for shadow stacks, they may be placed throughout the
lifetime of the application.
Use the start_gap field to find a space that includes the guard gap for
the new mapping. Take care to not interfere with the alignment.

Future changes will need to add a new member to struct
vm_unmapped_area_info. This would cause trouble for any call site that
doesn't initialize the struct. Currently every caller sets each member
manually, so if new ones are added they will be uninitialized and the core
code parsing the struct will see garbage in the new member.
It could be possible to initialize the new member manually to 0 at each
call site. This and a couple other options were discussed. Having some
struct vm_unmapped_area_info instances not zero initialized will put those
sites at risk of feeding garbage into vm_unmapped_area(), if the
convention is to zero initialize the struct and any new field addition
missed a call site that initializes each field manually. So it is useful
to do things similar across the kernel.
The consensus (see links) was that in general the best way to accomplish
taking into account both code cleanliness and minimizing the chance of
introducing bugs, was to do C99 static initialization. As in: struct
vm_unmapped_area_info info = {};
With this method of initialization, the whole struct will be zero
initialized, and any statements setting fields to zero will be unneeded.
The change should not leave cleanup at the call sides.
While iterating though the possible solutions a few archs kindly acked
other variations that still zero initialized the struct. These sites have
been modified in previous changes using the pattern acked by the
respective arch.
So to be reduce the chance of bugs via uninitialized fields, perform a
tree wide change using the consensus for the best general way to do this
change. Use C99 static initializing to zero the struct and remove and
statements that simply set members to zero.

guard gap logic is not needed in a lot of caseis, but it can be mapped by
THP, so needs to be handled.

When memory is being placed, mmap() will take care to respect the guard
gaps of certain types of memory (VM_SHADOWSTACK, VM_GROWSUP and
VM_GROWSDOWN). In order to ensure guard gaps between mappings, mmap()
needs to consider two things:
1. That the new mapping isn't placed in an any existing mappings guard
gaps.
2. That the new mapping isn't placed such that any existing mappings
are not in *its* guard gaps.
The longstanding behavior of mmap() is to ensure 1, but not take any care
around 2. So for example, if there is a PAGE_SIZE free area, and a mmap()
with a PAGE_SIZE size, and a type that has a guard gap is being placed,
mmap() may place the shadow stack in the PAGE_SIZE free area. Then the
mapping that is supposed to have a guard gap will not have a gap to the
adjacent VMA.
In order to take the start gap into account, the maple tree search needs
to know the size of start gap the new mapping will need. The call chain
from do_mmap() to the actual maple tree search looks like this:
do_mmap(size, vm_flags, map_flags, ..)
mm/mmap.c:get_unmapped_area(size, map_flags, ...)
arch_get_unmapped_area(size, map_flags, ...)
vm_unmapped_area(struct vm_unmapped_area_info)
One option would be to add another MAP_ flag to mean a one page start gap
(as is for shadow stack), but this consumes a flag unnecessarily. Another
option could be to simply increase the size passed in do_mmap() by the
start gap size, and adjust after the fact, but this will interfere with
the alignment requirements passed in struct vm_unmapped_area_info, and
unknown to mmap.c. Instead, introduce variants of
arch_get_unmapped_area/_topdown() that take vm_flags. In future changes,
these variants can be used in mmap.c:get_unmapped_area() to allow the
vm_flags to be passed through to vm_unmapped_area(), while preserving the
normal arch_get_unmapped_area/_topdown() for the existing callers.

The mm_struct contains a function pointer *get_unmapped_area(), which is
set to either arch_get_unmapped_area() or arch_get_unmapped_area_topdown()
during the initialization of the mm.
Since the function pointer only ever points to two functions that are
named the same across all arch's, a function pointer is not really
required. In addition future changes will want to add versions of the
functions that take additional arguments. So to save a pointers worth of
bytes in mm_struct, and prevent adding additional function pointers to
mm_struct in future changes, remove it and keep the information about
which get_unmapped_area() to use in a flag.
Add the new flag to MMF_INIT_MASK so it doesn't get clobbered on fork by
mmf_init_flags(). Most MM flags get clobbered on fork. In the
pre-existing behavior mm->get_unmapped_area() would get copied to the new
mm in dup_mm(), so not clobbering the flag preserves the existing behavior
around inheriting the topdown-ness.
Introduce a helper, mm_get_unmapped_area(), to easily convert code that
refers to the old function pointer to instead select and call either
arch_get_unmapped_area() or arch_get_unmapped_area_topdown() based on the
flag. Then drop the mm->get_unmapped_area() function pointer. Leave the
get_unmapped_area() pointer in struct file_operations alone. The main
purpose of this change is to reorganize in preparation for future changes,
but it also converts the calls of mm->get_unmapped_area() from indirect
branches into a direct ones.
The stress-ng bigheap benchmark calls realloc a lot, which calls through
get_unmapped_area() in the kernel. On x86, the change yielded a ~1%
improvement there on a retpoline config.
In testing a few x86 configs, removing the pointer unfortunately didn't
result in any actual size reductions in the compiled layout of mm_struct.
But depending on compiler or arch alignment requirements, the change could
shrink the size of mm_struct.
