The non_swap_entry() was used for working with VMA based swap readahead
via commit ec560175c0 ("mm, swap: VMA based swap readahead"). At that
time, the non_swap_entry() checking is necessary because the function is
called before checking that in do_swap_page(). Then it's moved to
swap_ra_info() since commit eaf649ebc3 ("mm: swap: clean up swap
readahead"). After that, the non_swap_entry() checking is unnecessary,
because swap_ra_info() is called after non_swap_entry() has been checked
already. The resulting code is confusing as the non_swap_entry() check
looks racy now because while we released the pte lock, somebody else might
have faulted in this pte. So we should check whether it's swap pte first
to guard against such race or swap_type will be unexpected. But the race
isn't important because it will not cause problem. We would have enough
checking when we really operate the PTE entries later. So we remove the
non_swap_entry() check here to avoid confusion.

When I was investigating the swap code, I found the below possible race
window:
CPU 1 CPU 2
----- -----
do_swap_page
if (data_race(si->flags & SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO)
swap_readpage
if (data_race(sis->flags & SWP_FS_OPS)) {
swapoff
..
p->swap_file = NULL;
..
struct file *swap_file = sis->swap_file;
struct address_space *mapping = swap_file->f_mapping;[oops!]
Note that for the pages that are swapped in through swap cache, this isn't
an issue. Because the page is locked, and the swap entry will be marked
with SWAP_HAS_CACHE, so swapoff() can not proceed until the page has been
unlocked.
Fix this race by using get/put_swap_device() to guard against concurrent
swapoff.

Patch series "close various race windows for swap", v6.
When I was investigating the swap code, I found some possible race
windows. This series aims to fix all these races. But using current
get/put_swap_device() to guard against concurrent swapoff for
swap_readpage() looks terrible because swap_readpage() may take really
long time. And to reduce the performance overhead on the hot-path as much
as possible, it appears we can use the percpu_ref to close this race
window(as suggested by Huang, Ying). The patch 1 adds percpu_ref support
for swap and most of the remaining patches try to use this to close
various race windows. More details can be found in the respective
changelogs.
This patch (of 4):
Using current get/put_swap_device() to guard against concurrent swapoff
for some swap ops, e.g. swap_readpage(), looks terrible because they
might take really long time. This patch adds the percpu_ref support to
serialize against concurrent swapoff(as suggested by Huang, Ying). Also
we remove the SWP_VALID flag because it's used together with RCU solution.

has_pinned 32bit can be packed in the MMF_HAS_PINNED bit as a noop
cleanup.
Any atomic_inc/dec to the mm cacheline shared by all threads in pin-fast
would reintroduce a loss of SMP scalability to pin-fast, so there's no
future potential usefulness to keep an atomic in the mm for this.
set_bit(MMF_HAS_PINNED) will be theoretically a bit slower than WRITE_ONCE
(atomic_set is equivalent to WRITE_ONCE), but the set_bit (just like
atomic_set after this commit) has to be still issued only once per "mm",
so the difference between the two will be lost in the noise.
will-it-scale "mmap2" shows no change in performance with enterprise
config as expected.
will-it-scale "pin_fast" retains the > 4000% SMP scalability performance
improvement against upstream as expected.
This is a noop as far as overall performance and SMP scalability are
concerned.

has_pinned cannot be written by each pin-fast or it won't scale in SMP.
This isn't "false sharing" strictly speaking (it's more like "true
non-sharing"), but it creates the same SMP scalability bottleneck of
"false sharing".
To verify the improvement, below test is done on 40 cpus host with
Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2630 v4 @ 2.20GHz (must be with
CONFIG_GUP_TEST=y):
$ sudo chrt -f 1 ./gup_test -a -m 512 -j 40
Where we can get (average value for 40 threads):
Old kernel: 477729.97 (+- 3.79%)
New kernel: 89144.65 (+-11.76%)
On a similar condition with 256 cpus, this commits increases the SMP
scalability of pin_user_pages_fast() executed by different threads of the
same process by more than 4000%.

Patch series "mm/gup: Fix pin page write cache bouncing on has_pinned", v2.
This series contains 3 patches, the 1st one enables threading for
gup_benchmark in the kselftest. The latter two patches are collected from
Andrea's local branch which can fix write cache bouncing issue with
pinning fast-gup.
To be explicit on the latter two patches:
- the 2nd patch fixes the perf degrade when introducing has_pinned, then
- the last patch tries to remove the has_pinned with a bit in mm->flags
For patch 3: originally I think we had a plan to reuse has_pinned into a
counter very soon, however that's not happening at least until today, so
maybe it proves that we can remove it until we really want such a counter
for whatever reason. As the commit message stated, it saves 4 bytes for
each mm without observable regressions.
Regarding testing: we can reference to the commit message of patch 2 for
some detailed testing with will-is-scale. Meanwhile I did patch 1 just
because then we can even easily verify the patchset using the existing
kselftest facilities or even regress test it in the future with the repo
if we want.
Below numbers are extra verification tests that I did besides commit
message of patch 2 using the new gup_benchmark and 256 cpus. Below test
is done on 40 cpus host with Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2630 v4 @ 2.20GHz,
and I can get similar result (of course the write cache bouncing get
severe with even more cores).

Patch series "Further set_page_dirty cleanups".
Prompted by Christoph's recent patches, here are some more patches to
improve the state of set_page_dirty(). They're all from the folio tree,
so they've been tested to a certain extent.
This patch (of 6):
Nothing in __set_page_dirty() is specific to buffer_head, so move it to
mm/page-writeback.c. That removes the only caller of
account_page_dirtied() outside of page-writeback.c, so make it static.

Thosw two did not wire up ->set_page_dirty before and now get
__set_page_dirty_no_writeback, which is the right one for no-writeback

Asynchronously try to release dying cgwbs by switching attached inodes to
the nearest living ancestor wb. It helps to get rid of per-cgroup
writeback structures themselves and of pinned memory and block cgroups,
which are significantly larger structures (mostly due to large per-cpu
statistics data). This prevents memory waste and helps to avoid different
scalability problems caused by large piles of dying cgroups.
Reuse the existing mechanism of inode switching used for foreign inode
detection. To speed things up batch up to 115 inode switching in a single
operation (the maximum number is selected so that the resulting struct
inode_switch_wbs_context can fit into 1024 bytes). Because every
switching consists of two steps divided by an RCU grace period, it would
be too slow without batching. Please note that the whole batch counts as
a single operation (when increasing/decreasing isw_nr_in_flight). This
allows to keep umounting working (flush the switching queue), however
prevents cleanups from consuming the whole switching quota and effectively
blocking the frn switching.
A cgwb cleanup operation can fail due to different reasons (e.g. not
enough memory, the cgwb has an in-flight/pending io, an attached inode in
a wrong state, etc). In this case the next scheduled cleanup will make a
new attempt. An attempt is made each time a new cgwb is offlined (in
other words a memcg and/or a blkcg is deleted by a user). In the future
an additional attempt scheduled by a timer can be implemented.

Currently only a single inode can be switched to another writeback
structure at once. That means to switch an inode a separate
inode_switch_wbs_context structure must be allocated, and a separate rcu
callback and work must be scheduled.
It's fine for the existing ad-hoc switching, which is not happening that
often, but sub-optimal for massive switching required in order to release
a writeback structure. To prepare for it, let's add a support for
switching multiple inodes at once.
Instead of containing a single inode pointer, inode_switch_wbs_context
will contain a NULL-terminated array of inode pointers.
inode_do_switch_wbs() will be called for each inode.
To optimize the locking bdi->wb_switch_rwsem, old_wb's and new_wb's
list_locks will be acquired and released only once altogether for all
inodes. wb_wakeup() will be also be called only once. Instead of calling
wb_put(old_wb) after each successful switch, wb_put_many() is introduced
and used.

Currently there is no way to iterate over inodes attached to a specific
cgwb structure. It limits the ability to efficiently reclaim the
writeback structure itself and associated memory and block cgroup
structures without scanning all inodes belonging to a sb, which can be
prohibitively expensive.
While dirty/in-active-writeback an inode belongs to one of the
bdi_writeback's io lists: b_dirty, b_io, b_more_io and b_dirty_time. Once
cleaned up, it's removed from all io lists. So the inode->i_io_list can
be reused to maintain the list of inodes, attached to a bdi_writeback
structure.
This patch introduces a new wb->b_attached list, which contains all inodes
which were dirty at least once and are attached to the given cgwb. Inodes
attached to the root bdi_writeback structures are never placed on such
list. The following patch will use this list to try to release cgwbs
structures more efficiently.

It's currently implemented as an RCU callback inode_switch_wbs_rcu_fn(),
which schedules inode_switch_wbs_work_fn() as a work.
Switching to the rcu_work API allows to do the same in a cleaner and

isw_nr_in_flight is used to determine whether the inode switch queue
should be flushed from the umount path. Currently it's increased after
grabbing an inode and even scheduling the switch work. It means the
umount path can walk past cleanup_offline_cgwb() with active inode
references, which can result in a "Busy inodes after unmount." message and
use-after-free issues (with inode->i_sb which gets freed).
Fix it by incrementing isw_nr_in_flight before doing anything with the
inode and decrementing in the case when switching wasn't scheduled.
The problem hasn't yet been seen in the real life and was discovered by
Jan Kara by looking into the code.

Patch series "cgroup, blkcg: prevent dirty inodes to pin dying memory cgroups", v9.
When an inode is getting dirty for the first time it's associated with a
wb structure (see __inode_attach_wb()). It can later be switched to
another wb (if e.g. some other cgroup is writing a lot of data to the
same inode), but otherwise stays attached to the original wb until being
reclaimed.
The problem is that the wb structure holds a reference to the original
memory and blkcg cgroups. So if an inode has been dirty once and later is
actively used in read-only mode, it has a good chance to pin down the
original memory and blkcg cgroups forever. This is often the case with
services bringing data for other services, e.g. updating some rpm
packages.
In the real life it becomes a problem due to a large size of the memcg
structure, which can easily be 1000x larger than an inode. Also a really
large number of dying cgroups can raise different scalability issues, e.g.
making the memory reclaim costly and less effective.
To solve the problem inodes should be eventually detached from the
corresponding writeback structure. It's inefficient to do it after every
writeback completion. Instead it can be done whenever the original memory
cgroup is offlined and writeback structure is getting killed. Scanning
over a (potentially long) list of inodes and detach them from the
writeback structure can take quite some time. To avoid scanning all
inodes, attached inodes are kept on a new list (b_attached). To make it
less noticeable to a user, the scanning and switching is performed from a
work context.
Big thanks to Jan Kara, Dennis Zhou, Hillf Danton and Tejun Heo for their
ideas and contribution to this patchset.
This patch (of 8):
If an inode's state has I_WILL_FREE flag set, the inode will be freed
soon, so there is no point in trying to switch the inode to a different
cgwb.
I_WILL_FREE was ignored since the introduction of the inode switching, so
it looks like it doesn't lead to any noticeable issues for a user. This
is why the patch is not intended for a stable backport.

Fix performance when BDI's share of ratio is 0.
The issue is similar to commit 74d3694433 ("writeback: Fix
performance regression in wb_over_bg_thresh()").
Balance_dirty_pages and the writeback worker will also disagree on
whether writeback when a BDI uses BDI_CAP_STRICTLIMIT and BDI's share
of the thresh ratio is zero.
For example, A thread on cpu0 writes 32 pages and then
balance_dirty_pages, it will wake up background writeback and pauses
because wb_dirty > wb->wb_thresh = 0 (share of thresh ratio is zero).
A thread may runs on cpu0 again because scheduler prefers pre_cpu.
Then writeback worker may runs on other cpus(1,2..) which causes the
value of wb_stat(wb, WB_RECLAIMABLE) in wb_over_bg_thresh is 0 and does
not writeback and returns.
Thus, balance_dirty_pages keeps looping, sleeping and then waking up the
worker who will do nothing. It remains stuck in this state until the
writeback worker hit the right dirty cpu or the dirty pages expire.
The fix that we should get the wb_stat_sum radically when thresh is low.

The page reporting order (threshold) is sticky to @pageblock_order by
default. The page reporting can never be triggered because the freeing
page can't come up with a free area like that huge. The situation becomes
worse when the system memory becomes heavily fragmented.
For example, the following configurations are used on ARM64 when 64KB base
page size is enabled. In this specific case, the page reporting won't be
triggered until the freeing page comes up with a 512MB free area. That's
hard to be met, especially when the system memory becomes heavily
fragmented.
PAGE_SIZE: 64KB
HPAGE_SIZE: 512MB
pageblock_order: 13 (512MB)
MAX_ORDER: 14
This allows the drivers to specify the page reporting order when the page
reporting device is registered. It falls back to @pageblock_order if it's
not specified by the driver. The existing users (hv_balloon and
virtio_balloon) don't specify it and @pageblock_order is still taken as
their page reporting order. So this shouldn't introduce any functional
changes.

This series intends to solve the issue by having page reporting threshold

PATCH[1/4] Fix some coding style in __page_reporting_request().
PATCH[2/4] Represents page reporting order with variable so that it can

PATCH[3/4] Allows the device driver (e.g. virtio_balloon) to specify

play well with PREEMPT_RT. The preemption disabled code section also
takes a spin-lock. Spin-locks in RT systems will try to schedule, which
is exactly what we're trying to avoid.
To mitigate this, convert the explicit preemption handling to local_locks.
Which are RT aware, and will disable migration instead of preemption when

grab_mapping_entry() has a bug in handling of ENOMEM condition. Suppose
we have a PMD entry at index i which we are downgrading to a PTE entry.
grab_mapping_entry() will set pmd_downgrade to true, lock the entry, clear
the entry in xarray, and decrement mapping->nrpages. The it will call:
entry = dax_make_entry(pfn_to_pfn_t(0), flags);
dax_lock_entry(xas, entry);
which inserts new PTE entry into xarray. However this may fail allocating
the new node. We handle this by:
if (xas_nomem(xas, mapping_gfp_mask(mapping) & ~__GFP_HIGHMEM))
goto retry;
however pmd_downgrade stays set to true even though 'entry' returned from
get_unlocked_entry() will be NULL now. And we will go again through the
downgrade branch. This is mostly harmless except that mapping->nrpages is
decremented again and we temporarily have an invalid entry stored in
xarray. Fix the problem by setting pmd_downgrade to false each time we
lookup the entry we work with so that it matches the entry we found.

This commit contains 3 modifications:
1. Convert the type of jiffies_scan_wait to "unsigned long".
2. Use READ/WRITE_ONCE() for accessing "jiffies_scan_wait".
3. Fix the possible wrong memory scanning period. If you set a large
memory scanning period like blow, then the "secs" variable will be
non-zero, however the value of "jiffies_scan_wait" will be zero.
echo "scan=0x10000000" > /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak
It is because the type of the msecs_to_jiffies()'s parameter is "unsigned
int", and the "secs * 1000" is larger than its max value. This in turn
leads a unexpected jiffies_scan_wait, maybe zero. We corret it by
replacing kstrtoul() with kstrtouint(), and check the msecs to prevent it
larger than UINT_MAX.

When running the kernel with panic_on_taint, the usual slub debug error
messages are not being printed when object corruption happens. That's
because we panic in add_taint(), which is called before printing the
additional information. This is a bit unfortunate as the error messages
are actually very useful, especially before a panic. Let's fix this by
moving add_taint() after the errors are printed on the console.

alloc_calls and free_calls implementation in sysfs have two issues, one is
PAGE_SIZE limitation of sysfs and other is it does not adhere to "one
value per file" rule.
To overcome this issues, move the alloc_calls and free_calls
implementation to debugfs.
Debugfs cache will be created if SLAB_STORE_USER flag is set.
Rename the alloc_calls/free_calls to alloc_traces/free_traces, to be
inline with what it does.

Obscuring the pointers that slub shows when debugging makes for some
confusing slub debug messages:
Padding overwritten. 0x0000000079f0674a-0x000000000d4dce17
Those addresses are hashed for kernel security reasons. If we're trying
to be secure with slub_debug on the commandline we have some big problems
given that we dump whole chunks of kernel memory to the kernel logs.
Let's force on the no_hash_pointers commandline flag when slub_debug is on
the commandline. This makes slub debug messages more meaningful and if by
chance a kernel address is in some slub debug object dump we will have a
better chance of figuring out what went wrong.
Note that we don't use %px in the slub code because we want to reduce the
number of places that %px is used in the kernel. This also nicely prints
a big fat warning at kernel boot if slub_debug is on the commandline so
that we know that this kernel shouldn't be used on production systems.

Petch series "slub: Print non-hashed pointers in slub debugging", v3.
I was doing some debugging recently and noticed that my pointers were
being hashed while slub_debug was on the kernel commandline. Let's force
on the no hash pointer option when slub_debug is on the kernel commandline
so that the prints are more meaningful.
The first two patches are something else I noticed while looking at the
code. The message argument is never used so the debugging messages are
not as clear as they could be and the slub_debug=- behavior seems to be
busted. Then there's a printf fixup from Joe and the final patch is the
one that force disables pointer hashing.
This patch (of 4):
Passing slub_debug=- on the kernel commandline is supposed to disable slub
debugging. This is especially useful with CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON where the
default is to have slub debugging enabled in the build. Due to some code
reorganization this behavior was dropped, but the code to make it work
mostly stuck around. Restore the previous behavior by disabling the
static key when we parse the commandline and see that we're trying to
disable slub debugging.

Currently when size is not supported by kmalloc_index, compiler will
generate a run-time BUG() while compile-time error is also possible, and
better. So change BUG to BUILD_BUG_ON_MSG to make compile-time check
possible.
Also remove code that allocates more than 32MB because current
implementation supports only up to 32MB.

SLUB has resiliency_test() function which is hidden behind #ifdef
SLUB_RESILIENCY_TEST that is not part of Kconfig, so nobody runs it.
KUnit should be a proper replacement for it.
Try changing byte in redzone after allocation and changing pointer to next
free node, first byte, 50th byte and redzone byte. Check if validation
finds errors.
There are several differences from the original resiliency test: Tests
create own caches with known state instead of corrupting shared kmalloc
caches.
The corruption of freepointer uses correct offset, the original resiliency
test got broken with freepointer changes.
Scratch changing random byte test, because it does not have meaning in
this form where we need deterministic results.
Add new option CONFIG_SLUB_KUNIT_TEST in Kconfig. Tests next_pointer,
first_word and clobber_50th_byte do not run with KASAN option on. Because
the test deliberately modifies non-allocated objects.
Use kunit_resource to count errors in cache and silence bug reports.
Count error whenever slab_bug() or slab_fix() is called or when the count
of pages is wrong.

from a context with disabled interrupts. That means kunit's test->lock
needs to be IRQ safe to avoid potential deadlocks and lockdep splats.

and spin_unlock_irqrestore().
