kfence: test: use kunit_skip() to skip tests
Use the new kunit_skip() to skip tests if requirements were not met. It makes it easier to see in KUnit's summary if there were skipped tests.

kfence: limit currently covered allocations when pool nearly full
One of KFENCE's main design principles is that with increasing uptime, allocation coverage increases sufficiently to detect previously undetected bugs. We have observed that frequent long-lived allocations of the same source (e.g. pagecache) tend to permanently fill up the KFENCE pool with increasing system uptime, thus breaking the above requirement. The workaround thus far had been increasing the sample interval and/or increasing the KFENCE pool size, but is no reliable solution. To ensure diverse coverage of allocations, limit currently covered allocations of the same source once pool utilization reaches 75% (configurable via `kfence.skip_covered_thresh`) or above. The effect is retaining reasonable allocation coverage when the pool is close to full. A side-effect is that this also limits frequent long-lived allocations of the same source filling up the pool permanently. Uniqueness of an allocation for coverage purposes is based on its (partial) allocation stack trace (the source). A Counting Bloom filter is used to check if an allocation is covered; if the allocation is currently covered, the allocation is skipped by KFENCE. Testing was done using: (a) a synthetic workload that performs frequent long-lived allocations (default config values; sample_interval=1; num_objects=63), and (b) normal desktop workloads on an otherwise idle machine where the problem was first reported after a few days of uptime (default config values). In both test cases the sampled allocation rate no longer drops to zero at any point. In the case of (b) we observe (after 2 days uptime) 15% unique allocations in the pool, 77% pool utilization, with 20% "skipped allocations (covered)".

mm/highmem: remove deprecated kmap_atomic
kmap_atomic() is being deprecated in favor of kmap_local_page().
Replace the uses of kmap_atomic() within the highmem code.
On profiling clear_huge_page() using ftrace an improvement of 62% was
observed on the below setup.
Setup:-
Below data has been collected on Qualcomm's SM7250 SoC THP enabled
(kernel v4.19.113) with only CPU-0(Cortex-A55) and CPU-7(Cortex-A76)
switched on and set to max frequency, also DDR set to perf governor.
FTRACE Data:-
Base data:-
Number of iterations: 48
Mean of allocation time: 349.5 us
std deviation: 74.5 us
v4 data:-
Number of iterations: 48
Mean of allocation time: 131 us
std deviation: 32.7 us
The following simple userspace experiment to allocate
100MB(BUF_SZ) of pages and writing to it gave us a good insight,
we observed an improvement of 42% in allocation and writing timings.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Test code snippet
-------------------------------------------------------------
clock_start();
buf = malloc(BUF_SZ); /* Allocate 100 MB of memory */
for(i=0; i < BUF_SZ_PAGES; i++)
{
*((int *)(buf + (i*PAGE_SIZE))) = 1;
}
clock_end();
-------------------------------------------------------------
Malloc test timings for 100MB anon allocation:-
Base data:-
Number of iterations: 100
Mean of allocation time: 31831 us
std deviation: 4286 us
v4 data:-
Number of iterations: 100
Mean of allocation time: 18193 us
std deviation: 4915 us

mm/zsmalloc.c: close race window between zs_pool_dec_isolated() and zs_unregister_migration()
There is one possible race window between zs_pool_dec_isolated() and
zs_unregister_migration() because wait_for_isolated_drain() checks the
isolated count without holding class->lock and there is no order inside
zs_pool_dec_isolated(). Thus the below race window could be possible:
zs_pool_dec_isolated zs_unregister_migration
check pool->destroying != 0
pool->destroying = true;
smp_mb();
wait_for_isolated_drain()
wait for pool->isolated_pages == 0
atomic_long_dec(&pool->isolated_pages);
atomic_long_read(&pool->isolated_pages) == 0
Since we observe the pool->destroying (false) before atomic_long_dec()
for pool->isolated_pages, waking pool->migration_wait up is missed.
Fix this by ensure checking pool->destroying happens after the
atomic_long_dec(&pool->isolated_pages).

mm/rmap.c: avoid double faults migrating device private pages
During migration special page table entries are installed for each page being migrated. These entries store the pfn and associated permissions of ptes mapping the page being migarted. Device-private pages use special swap pte entries to distinguish read-only vs. writeable pages which the migration code checks when creating migration entries. Normally this follows a fast path in migrate_vma_collect_pmd() which correctly copies the permissions of device-private pages over to migration entries when migrating pages back to the CPU. However the slow-path falls back to using try_to_migrate() which unconditionally creates read-only migration entries for device-private pages. This leads to unnecessary double faults on the CPU as the new pages are always mapped read-only even when they could be mapped writeable. Fix this by correctly copying device-private permissions in try_to_migrate_one().

memblock: add MEMBLOCK_DRIVER_MANAGED to mimic IORESOURCE_SYSRAM_DRIVER_MANAGED
Let's add a flag that corresponds to IORESOURCE_SYSRAM_DRIVER_MANAGED, indicating that we're dealing with a memory region that is never indicated in the firmware-provided memory map, but always detected and added by a driver. Similar to MEMBLOCK_HOTPLUG, most infrastructure has to treat such memory regions like ordinary MEMBLOCK_NONE memory regions -- for example, when selecting memory regions to add to the vmcore for dumping in the crashkernel via for_each_mem_range(). However, especially kexec_file is not supposed to select such memblocks via for_each_free_mem_range() / for_each_free_mem_range_reverse() to place kexec images, similar to how we handle IORESOURCE_SYSRAM_DRIVER_MANAGED without CONFIG_ARCH_KEEP_MEMBLOCK. We'll make sure that memory hotplug code sets the flag where applicable (IORESOURCE_SYSRAM_DRIVER_MANAGED) next. This prepares architectures that need CONFIG_ARCH_KEEP_MEMBLOCK, such as arm64, for virtio-mem support. Note that kexec *must not* indicate this memory to the second kernel and *must not* place kexec-images on this memory. Let's add a comment to kexec_walk_memblock(), documenting how we handle MEMBLOCK_DRIVER_MANAGED now just like using IORESOURCE_SYSRAM_DRIVER_MANAGED in locate_mem_hole_callback() for kexec_walk_resources(). Also note that MEMBLOCK_HOTPLUG cannot be reused due to different semantics: MEMBLOCK_HOTPLUG: memory is indicated as "System RAM" in the firmware-provided memory map and added to the system early during boot; kexec *has to* indicate this memory to the second kernel and can place kexec-images on this memory. After memory hotunplug, kexec has to be re-armed. We mostly ignore this flag when "movable_node" is not set on the kernel command line, because then we're told to not care about hotunpluggability of such memory regions. MEMBLOCK_DRIVER_MANAGED: memory is not indicated as "System RAM" in the firmware-provided memory map; this memory is always detected and added to the system by a driver; memory might not actually be physically hotunpluggable. kexec *must not* indicate this memory to the second kernel and *must not* place kexec-images on this memory.

memblock: allow to specify flags with memblock_add_node()
We want to specify flags when hotplugging memory. Let's prepare to pass flags to memblock_add_node() by adjusting all existing users. Note that when hotplugging memory the system is already up and running and we might have concurrent memblock users: for example, while we're hotplugging memory, kexec_file code might search for suitable memory regions to place kexec images. It's important to add the memory directly to memblock via a single call with the right flags, instead of adding the memory first and apply flags later: otherwise, concurrent memblock users might temporarily stumble over memblocks with wrong flags, which will be important in a follow-up patch that introduces a new flag to properly handle add_memory_driver_managed().

mm/memory_hotplug: handle memblock_add_node() failures in add_memory_resource()
Patch series "mm/memory_hotplug: full support for add_memory_driver_managed() with CONFIG_ARCH_KEEP_MEMBLOCK", v2.
Architectures that require CONFIG_ARCH_KEEP_MEMBLOCK=y, such as arm64,
don't cleanly support add_memory_driver_managed() yet. Most
prominently, kexec_file can still end up placing kexec images on such
driver-managed memory, resulting in undesired behavior, for example,
having kexec images located on memory not part of the firmware-provided
memory map.
Teaching kexec to not place images on driver-managed memory is
especially relevant for virtio-mem. Details can be found in commit

mm: migrate: make demotion knob depend on migration
The memory demotion needs to call migrate_pages() to do the jobs. And it is controlled by a knob, however, the knob doesn't depend on CONFIG_MIGRATION. The knob could be truned on even though MIGRATION is disabled, this will not cause any crash since migrate_pages() would just return -ENOSYS. But it is definitely not optimal to go through demotion path then retry regular swap every time. And it doesn't make too much sense to have the knob visible to the users when !MIGRATION. Move the related code from mempolicy.[h|c] to migrate.[h|c].

mm/migrate: de-duplicate migrate_reason strings
In order to remove the need to manually keep three different files in synch, provide a common definition of the mapping between enum migrate_reason, and the associated strings for each enum item. 1. Use the tracing system's mapping of enums to strings, by redefining and reusing the MIGRATE_REASON and supporting macros, and using that to populate the string array in mm/debug.c. 2. Move enum migrate_reason to migrate_mode.h. This is not strictly necessary for this patch, but migrate mode and migrate reason go together, so this will slightly clarify things.

hugetlbfs: extend the definition of hugepages parameter to support node allocation
We can specify the number of hugepages to allocate at boot. But the hugepages is balanced in all nodes at present. In some scenarios, we only need hugepages in one node. For example: DPDK needs hugepages which are in the same node as NIC. If DPDK needs four hugepages of 1G size in node1 and system has 16 numa nodes we must reserve 64 hugepages on the kernel cmdline. But only four hugepages are used. The others should be free after boot. If the system memory is low(for example: 64G), it will be an impossible task. So extend the hugepages parameter to support specifying hugepages on a specific node. For example add following parameter: hugepagesz=1G hugepages=0:1,1:3 It will allocate 1 hugepage in node0 and 3 hugepages in node1.

mm: mark the OOM reaper thread as freezable
The OOM reaper alters user address space which might theoretically alter
the snapshot if reaping is allowed to happen after the freezer quiescent
state. To this end, the reaper kthread uses wait_event_freezable()
while waiting for any work so that it cannot run while the system
freezes.
However, the current implementation doesn't respect the freezer because
all kernel threads are created with the PF_NOFREEZE flag, so they are
automatically excluded from freezing operations. This means that the
OOM reaper can race with system snapshotting if it has work to do while
the system is being frozen.
Fix this by adding a set_freezable() call which will clear the
PF_NOFREEZE flag and thus make the OOM reaper visible to the freezer.
Please note that the OOM reaper altering the snapshot this way is mostly
a theoretical concern and has not been observed in practice.

mm/vmscan: centralise timeout values for reclaim_throttle
Neil Brown raised concerns about callers of reclaim_throttle specifying a timeout value. The original timeout values to congestion_wait() were probably pulled out of thin air or copy&pasted from somewhere else. This patch centralises the timeout values and selects a timeout based on the reason for reclaim throttling. These figures are also pulled out of the same thin air but better values may be derived Running a workload that is throttling for inappropriate periods and tracing mm_vmscan_throttled can be used to pick a more appropriate value. Excessive throttling would pick a lower timeout where as excessive CPU usage in reclaim context would select a larger timeout. Ideally a large value would always be used and the wakeups would occur before a timeout but that requires careful testing.

do_writepages throttles on congestion if the writepages() fails due to a lack of memory but congestion_wait() is partially broken as the congestion state is not updated for all BDIs. This patch stalls waiting for a number of pages to complete writeback that located on the local node. The main weakness is that there is no correlation between the location of the inode's pages and locality but that is still better than congestion_wait.

Even if congestion throttling worked, it was never a great idea. While
excessive dirty/writeback pages at the tail of the LRU is one
possibility that reclaim may be slow, there is also the problem of too
many pages being isolated and reclaim failing for other reasons
(elevated references, too many pages isolated, excessive LRU contention
etc).
This series replaces the "congestion" throttling with 3 different types.
- If there are too many dirty/writeback pages, sleep until a timeout or
enough pages get cleaned
- If too many pages are isolated, sleep until enough isolated pages are
either reclaimed or put back on the LRU
- If no progress is being made, direct reclaim tasks sleep until
another task makes progress with acceptable efficiency.
This was initially tested with a mix of workloads that used to trigger
corner cases that no longer work. A new test case was created called
"stutterp" (pagereclaim-stutterp-noreaders in mmtests) using a freshly
created XFS filesystem. Note that it may be necessary to increase the
timeout of ssh if executing remotely as ssh itself can get throttled and
the connection may timeout.
stutterp varies the number of "worker" processes from 4 up to NR_CPUS*4
to check the impact as the number of direct reclaimers increase. It has
four types of worker.
- One "anon latency" worker creates small mappings with mmap() and
times how long it takes to fault the mapping reading it 4K at a time
- X file writers which is fio randomly writing X files where the total
size of the files add up to the allowed dirty_ratio. fio is allowed
to run for a warmup period to allow some file-backed pages to
accumulate. The duration of the warmup is based on the best-case
linear write speed of the storage.
- Y file readers which is fio randomly reading small files
- Z anon memory hogs which continually map (100-dirty_ratio)% of memory
- Total estimated WSS = (100+dirty_ration) percentage of memory
X+Y+Z+1 == NR_WORKERS varying from 4 up to NR_CPUS*4
The intent is to maximise the total WSS with a mix of file and anon
memory where some anonymous memory must be swapped and there is a high
likelihood of dirty/writeback pages reaching the end of the LRU.
The test can be configured to have no background readers to stress
dirty/writeback pages. The results below are based on having zero
readers.
The short summary of the results is that the series works and stalls
until some event occurs but the timeouts may need adjustment.
The test results are not broken down by patch as the series should be
treated as one block that replaces a broken throttling mechanism with a
working one.
Finally, three machines were tested but I'm reporting the worst set of
results. The other two machines had much better latencies for example.
First the results of the "anon latency" latency

For most thread counts, the time to mmap() is unfortunately increased.
In earlier versions of the series, this was lower but a large number of
throttling events were reaching their timeout increasing the amount of
inefficient scanning of the LRU. There is no prioritisation of reclaim
tasks making progress based on each tasks rate of page allocation versus
progress of reclaim. The variance is also impacted for high worker
counts but in all cases, the differences in latency are not
statistically significant due to very large maximum outliers. Max-90
shows that 90% of the stalls are comparable but the Max results show the
massive outliers which are increased to to stalling.
It is expected that this will be very machine dependant. Due to the
test design, reclaim is difficult so allocations stall and there are
variances depending on whether THPs can be allocated or not. The amount
of memory will affect exactly how bad the corner cases are and how often
they trigger. The warmup period calculation is not ideal as it's based
on linear writes where as fio is randomly writing multiple files from
multiple tasks so the start state of the test is variable. For example,
these are the latencies on a single-socket machine that had more memory

Kswapd scanned less pages but the detailed pattern is different. The
vanilla kernel scans slowly over time where as the patches exhibits
burst patterns of scan activity. Direct reclaim scanning is reduced by
52% due to stalling.
The pattern for stealing pages is also slightly different. Both kernels
exhibit spikes but the vanilla kernel when reclaiming shows pages being
reclaimed over a period of time where as the patches tend to reclaim in
spikes. The difference is that vanilla is not throttling and instead
scanning constantly finding some pages over time where as the patched
kernel throttles and reclaims in spikes.

82394 writeback_wait_iff_congested: usec_timeout=100000 usec_delayed=0
The fast majority of wait_iff_congested calls do not stall at all. What
is likely happening is that cond_resched() reschedules the task for a
short period when the BDI is not registering congestion (which it never
will in this test setup).

778 writeback_congestion_wait: usec_timeout=100000 usec_delayed=104000
congestion_wait if called always exceeds the timeout as there is no
trigger to wake it up.
Bottom line: Vanilla will throttle but it's not effective.

------------
Kswapd throttle activity was always due to scanning pages tagged for
immediate reclaim at the tail of the LRU

112 usec_timeout=100000 usect_delayed=4000 reason=VMSCAN_THROTTLE_WRITEBACK
The majority of events did not stall or stalled for a short period.
Roughly 16% of stalls reached the timeout before expiry. For direct
reclaim, the number of times stalled for each reason were
6624 reason=VMSCAN_THROTTLE_ISOLATED
93246 reason=VMSCAN_THROTTLE_NOPROGRESS
96934 reason=VMSCAN_THROTTLE_WRITEBACK
The most common reason to stall was due to excessive pages tagged for
immediate reclaim at the tail of the LRU followed by a failure to make
forward. A relatively small number were due to too many pages isolated
from the LRU by parallel threads
For VMSCAN_THROTTLE_ISOLATED, the breakdown of delays was

Most did not stall at all. A small number reached the timeout.

The full timeout is often hit but a large number also do not stall at
all. The remainder slept a little allowing other reclaim tasks to make
progress.
While this timeout could be further increased, it could also negatively
impact worst-case behaviour when there is no prioritisation of what task
should make progress.

The majority hit the timeout in direct reclaim context although a
sizable number did not stall at all. This is very different to kswapd
where only a tiny percentage of stalls due to writeback reached the
timeout.
Bottom line, the throttling appears to work and the wakeup events may
limit worst case stalls. There might be some grounds for adjusting
timeouts but it's likely futile as the worst-case scenarios depend on
the workload, memory size and the speed of the storage. A better
approach to improve the series further would be to prioritise tasks
based on their rate of allocation with the caveat that it may be very
expensive to track.
This patch (of 5):
Page reclaim throttles on wait_iff_congested under the following
conditions:
- kswapd is encountering pages under writeback and marked for immediate
reclaim implying that pages are cycling through the LRU faster than
pages can be cleaned.
- Direct reclaim will stall if all dirty pages are backed by congested
inodes.
wait_iff_congested is almost completely broken with few exceptions.
This patch adds a new node-based workqueue and tracks the number of
throttled tasks and pages written back since throttling started. If
enough pages belonging to the node are written back then the throttled
tasks will wake early. If not, the throttled tasks sleeps until the
timeout expires.

mm/page_isolation: guard against possible putback unisolated page
Isolating a free page in an isolated pageblock is expected to always
work as watermarks don't apply here.
But if __isolate_free_page() failed, due to condition changes, the page
will be left on the free list. And the page will be put back to free
list again via __putback_isolated_page(). This may trigger
VM_BUG_ON_PAGE() on page->flags checking in __free_one_page() if
PageReported is set. Or we will corrupt the free list because
list_add() will be called for pages already on another list.
Add a VM_WARN_ON() to complain about this change.

mm/page_isolation: fix potential missing call to unset_migratetype_isolate()
In start_isolate_page_range() undo path, pfn_to_online_page() just
checks the first pfn in a pageblock while __first_valid_page() will
traverse the pageblock until the first online pfn is found. So we may
miss the call to unset_migratetype_isolate() in undo path and pages will
remain isolated unexpectedly.
Fix this by calling undo_isolate_page_range() and this will also help to
simplify the code further. Note we shouldn't ever trigger it because
MAX_ORDER-1 aligned pfn ranges shouldn't contain memory holes now.

hugetlb: remove redundant VM_BUG_ON() in add_reservation_in_range()
When calling hugetlb_resv_map_add(), we've guaranteed that the parameter 'to' is always larger than 'from', so it never returns a negative value from hugetlb_resv_map_add(). Thus remove the redundant VM_BUG_ON().

hugetlb: support node specified when using cma for gigantic hugepages
Now the size of CMA area for gigantic hugepages runtime allocation is balanced for all online nodes, but we also want to specify the size of CMA per-node, or only one node in some cases, which are similar with patch [1]. For example, on some multi-nodes systems, each node's memory can be different, allocating the same size of CMA for each node is not suitable for the low-memory nodes. Meanwhile some workloads like DPDK mentioned by Zhenguo in patch [1] only need hugepages in one node. On the other hand, we have some machines with multiple types of memory, like DRAM and PMEM (persistent memory). On this system, we may want to specify all the hugepages only on DRAM node, or specify the proportion of DRAM node and PMEM node, to tuning the performance of the workloads. Thus this patch adds node format for 'hugetlb_cma' parameter to support specifying the size of CMA per-node. An example is as follows: hugetlb_cma=0:5G,2:5G which means allocating 5G size of CMA area on node 0 and node 2 respectively. And the users should use the node specific sysfs file to allocate the gigantic hugepages if specified the CMA size on that node.

mm, hugepages: add mremap() support for hugepage backed vma
Support mremap() for hugepage backed vma segment by simply repositioning page table entries. The page table entries are repositioned to the new virtual address on mremap(). Hugetlb mremap() support is of course generic; my motivating use case is a library (hugepage_text), which reloads the ELF text of executables in hugepages. This significantly increases the execution performance of said executables. Restrict the mremap operation on hugepages to up to the size of the original mapping as the underlying hugetlb reservation is not yet capable of handling remapping to a larger size. During the mremap() operation we detect pmd_share'd mappings and we unshare those during the mremap(). On access and fault the sharing is established again.

hugetlb: add hugetlb demote page support
Demote page functionality will split a huge page into a number of huge pages of a smaller size. For example, on x86 a 1GB huge page can be demoted into 512 2M huge pages. Demotion is done 'in place' by simply splitting the huge page. Added '*_for_demote' wrappers for remove_hugetlb_page, destroy_compound_hugetlb_page and prep_compound_gigantic_page for use by demote code.
