When the kmem_cache_shrink() was called, the IPI was triggered, the
___cache_free() is called in IPI interrupt context, the local-lock or
spin-lock will be acquired. On PREEMPT_RT kernel, these locks are
replaced with sleepbale rt-spinlock, so the above problem is triggered.
Fix it by moving the qlist_free_allfrom() from IPI interrupt context to
task context when PREEMPT_RT is enabled.

Missed calling flush_cache_range() before removing the sharing PMD
entrires, otherwise data consistence issue may be occurred on some
architectures whose caches are strict and require a virtual>physical
translation to exist for a virtual address. Thus add it.
Now no architectures enabling PMD sharing will be affected, since they do
not have a VIVT cache. That means this issue can not be happened in
practice so far.

When __setup() return '0', using invalid option values causes the entire
kernel boot option string to be reported as Unknown. Hugetlb calls
__setup() and will return '0' when set invalid parameter string.
The following phenomenon is observed:
cmdline:
hugepagesz=1Y hugepages=1
dmesg:
HugeTLB: unsupported hugepagesz=1Y
HugeTLB: hugepages=1 does not follow a valid hugepagesz, ignoring
Unknown kernel command line parameters "hugepagesz=1Y hugepages=1"
Since hugetlb will print warning/error information before return for
invalid parameter string, just use return '1' to avoid print again.

Hugepages can be specified to pernode since "hugetlbfs: extend the

following problem is observed.
Confusing behavior is observed when both 1G and 2M hugepage is set
after "numa=off".
cmdline hugepage settings:
hugepagesz=1G hugepages=0:3,1:3
hugepagesz=2M hugepages=0:1024,1:1024
results:
HugeTLB registered 1.00 GiB page size, pre-allocated 0 pages
HugeTLB registered 2.00 MiB page size, pre-allocated 1024 pages
Furthermore, confusing behavior can be also observed when an invalid node
behind a valid node. To fix this, never allocate any typical hugepage
when an invalid parameter is received.

Patch series "hugetlb: Fix some incorrect behavior", v3.
This series fix three bugs of hugetlb:
1) Invalid use of nr_online_nodes;
2) Inconsistency between 1G hugepage and 2M hugepage;
3) Useless information in dmesg.
This patch (of 4):
Certain systems are designed to have sparse/discontiguous nodes. In this
case, nr_online_nodes can not be used to walk through numa node. Also, a
valid node may be greater than nr_online_nodes.
However, in hugetlb, it is assumed that nodes are contiguous.
For sparse/discontiguous nodes, the current code may treat a valid node
as invalid, and will fail to allocate all hugepages on a valid node that
"nid >= nr_online_nodes".
As David suggested:
if (tmp >= nr_online_nodes)
goto invalid;
Just imagine node 0 and node 2 are online, and node 1 is offline.
Assuming that "node < 2" is valid is wrong.
Recheck all the places that use nr_online_nodes, and repair them one by
one.

__add_memory_block() calls both put_device() and device_unregister() when
storing the memory block into the xarray. This is incorrect because
xarray doesn't take an additional reference and device_unregister()
already calls put_device().
Triggering the issue looks really unlikely and its only effect should be
to log a spurious warning about a ref counted issue.

Users may use ksm by calling madvise(, , MADV_MERGEABLE) when they want to
save memory, it's a tradeoff by suffering delay on ksm cow. Users can get
to know how much memory ksm saved by reading
/sys/kernel/mm/ksm/pages_sharing, but they don't know what's the costs of
ksm cow, and this is important of some delay sensitive tasks.
So add ksm cow events to help users evaluate whether or how to use ksm.
Also update Documentation/admin-guide/mm/ksm.rst with new added events.

Some applications or containers want to use KSM by calling madvise() to
advise areas of address space to be MERGEABLE. But they may not know
which applications are more likely to cause real merges in the
deployment. If this patch is applied, it helps them know their
corresponding number of merged pages, and then optimize their app code.
As current KSM only counts the number of KSM merging pages(e.g.
ksm_pages_sharing and ksm_pages_shared) of the whole system, we cannot see
the more fine-grained KSM merging, for the upper application optimization,
the merging area cannot be set easily according to the KSM page merging
probability of each process. Therefore, it is necessary to add extra
statistical means so that the upper level users can know the detailed KSM
merging information of each process.
We add a new proc file named as ksm_merging_pages under /proc/<pid>/ to
indicate the involved ksm merging pages of this process.

The stub for non_swap_entry() may not help much, because MAX_SWAPFILES has
already contained all the information to decide whether a swap entry is
real swap entry or pesudo ones (migrations, ...).
There can be some performance influences on non_swap_entry() with below
conditions all met:
!CONFIG_MIGRATION && !CONFIG_MEMORY_FAILURE && !CONFIG_DEVICE_PRIVATE
But that's definitely not the major config most machines will use, at the
meantime it's already in a slow path of swap entry (being parsed from a
swap pte), so IMHO it shouldn't be a major issue. Also according to the
analysis from Alistair, somehow the stub didn't do the job right [1].
To make the code cleaner, let's drop the stub.
[1] https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/8735ihbw6g.fsf@nvdebian.thelocal/
Note: the uffd-wp shmem & hugetlbfs series will need this patch to make
sure swap entries work as expected with below config as spotted by
Alistair:
!CONFIG_MIGRATION &&
!CONFIG_MEMORY_FAILURE &&
!CONFIG_DEVICE_PRIVATE &&
CONFIG_PTE_MARKER

Currently memmap_init_zone_device() ends up initializing 32768 pages when
it only needs to initialize 128 given tail page reuse. That number is
worse with 1GB compound pages, 262144 instead of 128. Update
memmap_init_zone_device() to skip redundant initialization, detailed
below.
When a pgmap @vmemmap_shift is set, all pages are mapped at a given huge
page alignment and use compound pages to describe them as opposed to a
struct per 4K.
With @vmemmap_shift > 0 and when struct pages are stored in ram (!altmap)
most tail pages are reused. Consequently, the amount of unique struct
pages is a lot smaller than the total amount of struct pages being mapped.
The altmap path is left alone since it does not support memory savings
based on compound pages devmap.

first two) to minimize struct page overhead. Allocate a separate page for
the vmemmap area which contains the head page and separate for the next 64
pages. The rest of the subsections then reuse this tail vmemmap page to
initialize the rest of the tail pages.
Sections are arch-dependent (e.g. on x86 it's 64M, 128M or 512M) and when
initializing compound devmap with big enough @vmemmap_shift (e.g. 1G PUD)
it may cross multiple sections. The vmemmap code needs to consult @pgmap
so that multiple sections that all map the same tail data can refer back
to the first copy of that data for a given gigantic page.
On compound devmaps with 2M align, this mechanism lets 6 pages be saved
out of the 8 necessary PFNs necessary to set the subsection's 512 struct
pages being mapped. On a 1G compound devmap it saves 4094 pages.
Altmap isn't supported yet, given various restrictions in altmap pfn
allocator, thus fallback to the already in use vmemmap_populate(). It is
worth noting that altmap for devmap mappings was there to relieve the
pressure of inordinate amounts of memmap space to map terabytes of pmem.
With compound pages the motivation for altmaps for pmem gets reduced.

Patch series "sparse-vmemmap: memory savings for compound devmaps (device-dax)", v9.
This series minimizes 'struct page' overhead by pursuing a similar
approach as Muchun Song series "Free some vmemmap pages of hugetlb page"
(now merged since v5.14), but applied to devmap with @vmemmap_shift
(device-dax).
The vmemmap dedpulication original idea (already used in HugeTLB) is to
reuse/deduplicate tail page vmemmap areas, particular the area which only
describes tail pages. So a vmemmap page describes 64 struct pages, and
the first page for a given ZONE_DEVICE vmemmap would contain the head page
and 63 tail pages. The second vmemmap page would contain only tail pages,
and that's what gets reused across the rest of the subsection/section.
The bigger the page size, the bigger the savings (2M hpage -> save 6
vmemmap pages; 1G hpage -> save 4094 vmemmap pages).
This is done for PMEM /specifically only/ on device-dax configured
namespaces, not fsdax. In other words, a devmap with a @vmemmap_shift.
In terms of savings, per 1Tb of memory, the struct page cost would go down
with compound devmap:
* with 2M pages we lose 4G instead of 16G (0.39% instead of 1.5% of
total memory)
* with 1G pages we lose 40MB instead of 16G (0.0014% instead of 1.5% of
total memory)
The series is mostly summed up by patch 4, and to summarize what the
series does:
Patches 1 - 3: Minor cleanups in preparation for patch 4. Move the very
nice docs of hugetlb_vmemmap.c into a Documentation/vm/ entry.
Patch 4: Patch 4 is the one that takes care of the struct page savings
(also referred to here as tail-page/vmemmap deduplication). Much like
Muchun series, we reuse the second PTE tail page vmemmap areas across a
given @vmemmap_shift On important difference though, is that contrary to
the hugetlbfs series, there's no vmemmap for the area because we are
late-populating it as opposed to remapping a system-ram range. IOW no
freeing of pages of already initialized vmemmap like the case for
hugetlbfs, which greatly simplifies the logic (besides not being
arch-specific). altmap case unchanged and still goes via the
vmemmap_populate(). Also adjust the newly added docs to the device-dax
case.
[Note that device-dax is still a little behind HugeTLB in terms of
savings. I have an additional simple patch that reuses the head vmemmap
page too, as a follow-up. That will double the savings and namespaces
initialization.]
Patch 5: Initialize fewer struct pages depending on the page size with
DRAM backed struct pages -- because fewer pages are unique and most tail
pages (with bigger vmemmap_shift).
NVDIMM namespace bootstrap improves from ~268-358 ms to
~80-110/<1ms on 128G NVDIMMs with 2M and 1G respectivally. And struct
page needed capacity will be 3.8x / 1071x smaller for 2M and 1G
respectivelly. Tested on x86 with 1.5Tb of pmem (including pinning,
and RDMA registration/deregistration scalability with 2M MRs)
This patch (of 5):
In support of using compound pages for devmap mappings, plumb the pgmap
down to the vmemmap_populate implementation. Note that while altmap is
retrievable from pgmap the memory hotplug code passes altmap without
pgmap[*], so both need to be independently plumbed.
So in addition to @altmap, pass @pgmap to sparse section populate
functions namely:
sparse_add_section
section_activate
populate_section_memmap
__populate_section_memmap
Passing @pgmap allows __populate_section_memmap() to both fetch the
vmemmap_shift in which memmap metadata is created for and also to let
sparse-vmemmap fetch pgmap ranges to co-relate to a given section and pick
whether to just reuse tail pages from past onlined sections.
While at it, fix the kdoc for @altmap for sparse_add_section().

Patch series "mm/mmap: Drop arch_vm_get_page_prot() and arch_filter_pgprot()", v7.
protection_map[] is an array based construct that translates given
vm_flags combination. This array contains page protection map, which is
populated by the platform via [__S000 .. __S111] and [__P000 .. __P111]
exported macros. Primary usage for protection_map[] is for
vm_get_page_prot(), which is used to determine page protection value for a
given vm_flags. vm_get_page_prot() implementation, could again call
platform overrides arch_vm_get_page_prot() and arch_filter_pgprot(). Some
platforms override protection_map[] that was originally built with
__SXXX/__PXXX with different runtime values.
Currently there are multiple layers of abstraction i.e __SXXX/__PXXX
macros , protection_map[], arch_vm_get_page_prot() and
arch_filter_pgprot() built between the platform and generic MM, finally
defining vm_get_page_prot().
Hence this series proposes to drop later two abstraction levels and
instead just move the responsibility of defining vm_get_page_prot() to the
platform (still utilizing generic protection_map[] array) itself making it
clean and simple.
This first introduces ARCH_HAS_VM_GET_PAGE_PROT which enables the
platforms to define custom vm_get_page_prot(). This starts converting
platforms that define the overrides arch_filter_pgprot() or
arch_vm_get_page_prot() which enables for those constructs to be dropped
off completely.
The series has been inspired from an earlier discuss with Christoph Hellwig
https://lore.kernel.org/all/1632712920-8171-1-git-send-email-anshuman.khandual@arm.com/
This patch (of 7):
Add a new config ARCH_HAS_VM_GET_PAGE_PROT, which when subscribed enables
a given platform to define its own vm_get_page_prot() but still utilizing
the generic protection_map[] array.

These might not be issues yet, but they make the script more fragile.
Also by fixing them we give a better example to future readers, who might
copy/paste or otherwise re-use snippets from our script.
- Use "read -r", since we don't ever want read to be interpreting '\'
characters as escape sequences...
- Quote variables, to deal with spaces properly.
- Use $() instead of the older and harder-to-nest ``.
- Get rid of superfluous "$" prefixes inside arithmetic $(()).

Previously, each test printed out its own header, dealt with its own
return code, etc. By just putting this standard stuff in a function, we
can delete > 300 lines from the script.
This also makes adding future tests easier. And, it gets rid of various
inconsistencies that already exist:
- Some tests correctly deal with ksft_skip, but others don't.
- Some tests just print the executable name, others print arguments, and
yet others print some comment in the header.
- Most tests print out a header with two separator lines, but not the
HMM smoke test or the memfd_secret test, which only print one.
- We had a redundant "exit" at the end, with all the boilerplate it's an
easy oversight.

This introduces three tests:
1) Sanity check soft dirty basic semantics: allocate area, clean,
dirty, check if the SD bit is flipped.
2) Check VMA reuse: validate the VM_SOFTDIRTY usage
3) Check soft-dirty on huge pages
This was motivated by Will Deacon's fix commit 912efa17e5 ("mm: proc:
Invalidate TLB after clearing soft-dirty page state"). I was tracking the
same issue that he fixed, and this test would have caught it.
