Patch series "mm/ksm: break_ksm() cleanups and fixes", v2.
This series cleans up and fixes break_ksm(). In summary, we no longer use
fake write faults to break COW but instead FAULT_FLAG_UNSHARE. Further,
we move away from using follow_page() --- that we can hopefully remove
completely at one point --- and use new walk_page_range_vma() instead.
Fortunately, we can get rid of VM_FAULT_WRITE and FOLL_MIGRATION in common
code now.
Extend the existing ksm tests by an unmerge benchmark, and a some new
unmerge tests.
Also, add a selftest to measure MADV_UNMERGEABLE performance. In my setup
(AMD Ryzen 9 3900X), running the KSM selftest to test unmerge performance
on 2 GiB (taskset 0x8 ./ksm_tests -D -s 2048), this results in a
performance degradation of ~6% -- 7% (old: ~5250 MiB/s, new: ~4900 MiB/s).
I don't think we particularly care for now, but it's good to be aware of
the implication.
This patch (of 9):
Let's add three unmerge tests (MADV_UNMERGEABLE unmerging all pages in the
range).
test_unmerge(): basic unmerge tests
test_unmerge_discarded(): have some pte_none() entries in the range
test_unmerge_uffd_wp(): protect the merged pages using uffd-wp
ksm_tests.c currently contains a mixture of benchmarks and tests, whereby
each test is carried out by executing the ksm_tests binary with specific
parameters. Let's add new ksm_functional_tests.c that performs multiple,
smaller functional tests all at once.

Patch series "selftests/vm: test COW handling of anonymous memory".
This is my current set of tests for testing COW handling of anonymous
memory, especially when interacting with GUP. I developed these tests
while working on PageAnonExclusive and managed to clean them up just now.
On current upstream Linux, all tests pass except the hugetlb tests that
rely on vmsplice -- these tests should pass as soon as vmsplice properly
uses FOLL_PIN instead of FOLL_GET.
I'm working on additional tests for COW handling in private mappings,
focusing on long-term R/O pinning e.g., of the shared zeropage, pagecache
pages and KSM pages. These tests, however, will go into a different file.
So this is everything I have regarding tests for anonymous memory.
This patch (of 7):
Let's start adding tests for our COW handling of anonymous memory. We'll
focus on basic tests that we can achieve without additional libraries or
gup_test extensions.
We'll add THP and hugetlb tests separately.

Add memory operations for file-backed and tmpfs memory. Call existing
tests with these new memory operations to test collapse functionality of
khugepaged and MADV_COLLAPSE on file-backed and tmpfs memory. Not all
tests are reusable; for example, collapse_swapin_single_pte() which checks
swap usage.
Refactor test arguments. Usage is now:
Usage: ./khugepaged <test type> [dir]
<test type> : <context>:<mem_type>
<context> : [all|khugepaged|madvise]
<mem_type> : [all|anon|file]
"file,all" mem_type requires [dir] argument
"file,all" mem_type requires kernel built with
CONFIG_READ_ONLY_THP_FOR_FS=y
if [dir] is a (sub)directory of a tmpfs mount, tmpfs must be
mounted with huge=madvise option for khugepaged tests to work
Refactor calling tests to make it clear what collapse context / memory
operations they support, but only invoke tests requested by user. Also
log what test is being ran, and with what context / memory, to make test
logs more human readable.
A new test file is created and deleted for every test to ensure no pages
remain in the page cache between tests (tests also may attempt to collapse
different amount of memory).
For file-backed memory where the file is stored on a block device, disable
/sys/block/<device>/queue/read_ahead_kb so that pages don't find their way
into the page cache without the tests faulting them in.
Add file and shmem wrappers to vm_utils check for file and shmem hugepages
in smaps.

These files:
tools/testing/selftests/vm/vm_util.c
tools/testing/selftests/vm/khugepaged.c
Both contain logic to:
1) Determine hugepage size on current system
2) Read /proc/self/smaps to determine number of THPs at an address
Refactor selftests/vm/khugepaged.c to use the vm_util common helpers and
add it as a build dependency.
Since selftests/vm/khugepaged.c is the largest user of check_huge(),
change the signature of check_huge() to match selftests/vm/khugepaged.c's
useage: take an expected number of hugepages, and return a bool indicating
if the correct number of hugepages were found. Add a wrapper,
check_huge_anon(), in anticipation of checking smaps for file and shmem
hugepages.
Update existing callsites to use the new pattern / function.
Likewise, check_for_pattern() was duplicated, and it's a general enough
helper to include in vm_util helpers as well.

Bring common functions to a new file while keeping code as much same as
possible. These functions can be used in the new tests. This helps in
avoiding code duplication.
