Patch series "mm: batch mm counter updating in filemap_map_pages()", v3.
Let's batch mm counter updating to accelerate filemap_map_pages().
This patch (of 2):
In order to support batch mm counter updating in filemap_map_pages(), move
mm counter updating out of set_pte_range(), the folios are file from
filemap, and distinguish folios by vmf->flags and vma->vm_flags from
another caller finish_fault().

The documentation does not align with the code. In
__do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page(), THP_FAULT_FALLBACK is incremented when
mem_cgroup_charge() fails, despite the allocation succeeding, whereas
THP_FAULT_ALLOC is only incremented after a successful charge.

This helps to display the fragmentation situation of the swapfile, knowing
the proportion of how much we haven't split large folios. So far, we only
support non-split swapout for anon memory, with the possibility of
expanding to shmem in the future. So, we add the "anon" prefix to the
counter names.

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.

Patch series "transfer page to folio in KSM".
This is the first part of page to folio transfer on KSM. Since only
single page could be stored in KSM, we could safely transfer stable tree
pages to folios.
This patchset could reduce ksm.o 57kbytes from 2541776 bytes on latest
akpm/mm-stable branch with CONFIG_DEBUG_VM enabled. It pass the KSM
testing in LTP and kernel selftest.
Thanks for Matthew Wilcox and David Hildenbrand's suggestions and
comments!
This patch (of 10):
The ksm only contains single pages, so we could add a new func
ksm_get_folio for get_ksm_page to use folio instead of pages to save a
couple of compound_head calls.
After all caller replaced, get_ksm_page will be removed.

We want to limit the use of page_mapcount() to the places where it is
absolutely necessary. So let's convert check_tlb_entry() to perform
sanity checks on folios instead of pages.
This essentially already happened: page_count() is mapped to
folio_ref_count(), and page_mapped() to folio_mapped() internally.
However, we would have printed the page_mapount(), which does not really
match what page_mapped() would have checked.
Let's simply print the folio mapcount to avoid using page_mapcount(). For
small folios there is no change.

We want to limit the use of page_mapcount() to the places where it is
absolutely necessary. We already trace raw page->refcount, raw
page->flags and raw page->mapping, and don't involve any folios. Let's
also trace the raw mapcount value that does not consider the entire
mapcount of large folios, and we don't add "1" to it.
When dealing with typed folios, this makes a lot more sense. ... and
it's for debugging purposes only either way.

We want to limit the use of page_mapcount() to the places where it is
absolutely necessary.
Let's use folio_mapcount() instead of filemap_unaccount_folio().
No functional change intended, because we're only dealing with small
folios.

There is no change for small folios. Likely we won't stumble over many
large folios on sh in that code either way.

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

There is no change for small folios. For large folios, we'll now catch

mapcount of the first subpage, we'll test if the folio mapcount
underflows.

We already handle it properly for large folios. Let's also return "0" for
small typed folios, like page_mapcount() currently would.
Consequently, folio_mapcount() will never return negative values for typed
folios, but may return negative values for underflows.

We can now read the mapcount of large folios very efficiently. Use it to
improve our handling of partially-mappable folios, falling back to making
a guess only in case the folio is not "obviously mapped shared".
We can now better detect partially-mappable folios where the first page is
not mapped as "mapped shared", reducing "false negatives"; but false
negatives are still possible.
While at it, fixup a wrong comment (false positive vs. false negative)
for KSM folios.

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().

As we grow the code, the compiler might make stupid decisions and

Patch series "mm: mapcount for large folios + page_mapcount() cleanups".
This series tracks the mapcount of large folios in a single value, so it
can be read efficiently and atomically, just like the mapcount of small
folios.
folio_mapcount() is then used in a couple more places, most notably to
reduce false negatives in folio_likely_mapped_shared(), and many users of
page_mapcount() are cleaned up (that's maybe why you got CCed on the full
series, sorry sh+xtensa folks! :) ).
The remaining s390x user and one KSM user of page_mapcount() are getting
removed separately on the list right now. I have patches to handle the
other KSM one, the khugepaged one and the kpagecount one; as they are not
as "obvious", I will send them out separately in the future. Once that is
all in place, I'm planning on moving page_mapcount() into
fs/proc/task_mmu.c, the remaining user for the time being (and we can
discuss at LSF/MM details on that :) ).
I proposed the mapcount for large folios (previously called total
mapcount) originally in part of [1] and I later included it in [2] where
it is a requirement. In the meantime, I changed the patch a bit so I
dropped all RB's. During the discussion of [1], Peter Xu correctly raised
that this additional tracking might affect the performance when PMD->PTE
remapping THPs. In the meantime. I addressed that by batching RMAP
operations during fork(), unmap/zap and when PMD->PTE remapping THPs.
Running some of my micro-benchmarks [3] (fork,munmap,cow-byte,remap) on 1
GiB of memory backed by folios with the same order, I observe the
following on an Intel(R) Xeon(R) Silver 4210R CPU @ 2.40GHz tuned for
reproducible results as much as possible:
Standard deviation is mostly < 1%, except for order-9, where it's < 2% for
fork() and munmap().
(1) Small folios are not affected (< 1%) in all 4 microbenchmarks.
(2) Order-4 folios are not affected (< 1%) in all 4 microbenchmarks. A bit
weird comapred to the other orders ...
(3) PMD->PTE remapping of order-9 THPs is not affected (< 1%)
(4) COW-byte (COWing a single page by writing a single byte) is not
affected for any order (< 1 %). The page copy_fault overhead dominates
everything.
(5) fork() is mostly not affected (< 1%), except order-2, where we have
a slowdown of ~4%. Already for order-3 folios, we're down to a slowdown
of < 1%.
(6) munmap() sees a slowdown by < 3% for some orders (order-5,
order-6, order-9), but less for others (< 1% for order-4 and order-8,
< 2% for order-2, order-3, order-7).
Especially the fork() and munmap() benchmark are sensitive to each added
instruction and other system noise, so I suspect some of the change and
observed weirdness (order-4) is due to code layout changes and other
factors, but not really due to the added atomics.
So in the common case where we can batch, the added atomics don't really
make a big difference, especially in light of the recent improvements for
large folios that we recently gained due to batching. Surprisingly, for
some cases where we cannot batch (e.g., COW), the added atomics don't seem
to matter, because other overhead dominates.
My fork and munmap micro-benchmarks don't cover cases where we cannot
batch-process bigger parts of large folios. As this is not the common
case, I'm not worrying about that right now.
Future work is batching RMAP operations during swapout and folio
migration.

This patch (of 18):
Commit 53277bcf126d ("mm: support page_mapcount() on page_has_type()
pages") made it impossible to detect mapcount underflows by treating any
negative raw mapcount value as a mapcount of 0.
We perform such underflow checks in zap_present_folio_ptes() and
zap_huge_pmd(), which would currently no longer trigger.
Let's check against PAGE_MAPCOUNT_RESERVE instead by using
page_type_has_type(), like page_has_type() would, so we can still catch
some underflows.

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.

now also perform these sanity checks for direct follow_pte()
invocations.
For generic_access_phys(), we might now check multiple times: nothing to
worry about, really.

Patch series "mm: follow_pte() improvements and acrn follow_pte() fixes".
Patch #1 fixes a bunch of issues I spotted in the acrn driver. It
compiles, that's all I know. I'll appreciate some review and testing from
acrn folks.
Patch #2+#3 improve follow_pte(), passing a VMA instead of the MM, adding
more sanity checks, and improving the documentation. Gave it a quick test
on x86-64 using VM_PAT that ends up using follow_pte().
This patch (of 3):
We currently miss handling various cases, resulting in a dangerous
follow_pte() (previously follow_pfn()) usage.
(1) We're not checking PTE write permissions.
Maybe we should simply always require pte_write() like we do for
pin_user_pages_fast(FOLL_WRITE)? Hard to tell, so let's check for
ACRN_MEM_ACCESS_WRITE for now.
(2) We're not rejecting refcounted pages.
As we are not using MMU notifiers, messing with refcounted pages is
dangerous and can result in use-after-free. Let's make sure to reject them.
(3) We are only looking at the first PTE of a bigger range.
We only lookup a single PTE, but memmap->len may span a larger area.
Let's loop over all involved PTEs and make sure the PFN range is
actually contiguous. Reject everything else: it couldn't have worked
either way, and rather made use access PFNs we shouldn't be accessing.

During reviewing a patch to fix the race condition between
free_swap_and_cache() and swapoff() [1], it was found that the document
about how to prevent racing with swapoff isn't clear enough. Especially
RCU read lock can prevent swapoff from freeing data structures. So, the
document is added as comments.

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.
