GCC doesn't like dereferencing a pointer set to 0x1 (when building
at -O2):
pkey_sighandler_tests.c:166:9: warning: array subscript 0 is outside array bounds of 'int[0]' [-Warray-bounds=]
166 | *(int *) (0x1) = 1;
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~
cc1: note: source object is likely at address zero
Using NULL instead seems to make it happy. This should make no difference
in practice (SIGSEGV with SEGV_MAPERR will be the outcome regardless), we
just need to update the expected si_addr.

GCC complains (with -O2) that the length is equal to the destination size,
which is indeed invalid. Subtract 1 from the size of the array to leave
room for '\0'.

A few -Wmaybe-uninitialized warnings show up when building the mm tests
with -O2. None of them looks worrying; silence them by initialising the

Patch series "pkeys kselftests improvements".
This series brings various cleanups and fixes for the mm (mostly pkeys)
kselftests. The original goal was to make the pkeys tests work out of the
box and without build warning - it turned out to be more involved than
expected.
The most important change is enabling -O2 when building all mm kselftests
(patch 5). This is actually needed for the pkeys tests to run
successfully (see gcc command line at the top of protection_keys.c and
pkey_sighandler_tests.c), and seems to have no negative impact on the
other tests. It certainly can't hurt performance!
The following patches address a few obvious issues in the pkeys tests
(unused code, bad scope for functions/variables, etc.) and finally make a
couple of small improvements.
There is one ugliness that this series does not fix: some functions in
pkey-<arch>.h call functions that are actually defined in
protection_keys.c. For instance, expect_fault_on_read_execonly_key() in
pkey-x86.h calls expected_pkey_fault(). This means that other test
programs that use pkey-helpers.h (namely pkey_sighandler_tests) would fail
to link if they called such functions defined in pkey-<arch>.h. Fixing
this would require a more comprehensive reorganisation of the pkey-*
headers, which doesn't seem worth it (patch 9 adds a comment to
pkey-helpers.h to clarify the situation).
Some more details on the patches:
- Patch 1 is an unrelated fix that was revealed by inspecting a warning.
It seems fairly harmless though, so I thought I'd just post it as part
of this series.
- Patch 2-5 fix various warnings that come up by building the mm tests
at -O2 and finally enable -O2.
- Patch 6-12 are various cleanups for the pkeys tests. Patch 11 in
particular enables is_pkeys_supported() to be called from outside
protection_keys.c (patch 13 relies on this).
- Patch 13-14 are small improvements to pkey_sighandler_tests.c.
Many thanks to Ryan Roberts for checking that the mm tests still run fine
on arm64 with those patches applied. I've also checked that the pkeys
tests run fine on arm64 and x86.
This patch (of 14):
area_src and area_dst are saved at the beginning of the function if
chunk_size > page_size. The intention is quite clearly to restore them at
the end based on the same condition, but step_size is considered instead
of chunk_size. Considering that step_size is a number of pages, the
condition is likely to be false.
Use the same condition as when saving so that the globals are restored as
intended.

offlining
We'll migrate pages allocated by other context; respecting the cpuset of
the memory offlining context when allocating a migration target does not
make sense.

Patch series "mm: don't use __GFP_HARDWALL when migrating remote pages".
__GFP_HARDWALL means that we will be respecting the cpuset of the caller
when allocating a page. However, when we are migrating remote allocations
(pages allocated from other context), the cpuset of the current context is
irrelevant.
For memory offlining + alloc_contig_*(), this is rather obvious. There
might be other such page migration users, let's start with the obvious
ones.
This patch (of 2):
We'll migrate pages allocated by other contexts; respecting the cpuset of
the alloc_contig*() caller when allocating a migration target does not
make sense.
Drop the __GFP_HARDWALL.
Note that in an ideal world, migration code could figure out the cpuset
of the original context and take that into consideration.

Patch series "selftest/mm: Remove warnings found by adding compiler flags".
Recently, I reviewed a patch on the mm/kselftest mailing list about a test
which had obvious type mismatch fix in it. It was strange why that wasn't
caught during development and when patch was accepted. This led me to
discover that those extra compiler options to catch these warnings aren't
being used. When I added them, I found tens of warnings in just mm suite.
In this series, I'm fixing those warnings in a few files. More fixes will
be sent later.

No code logic change.
can_do_mseal() is called exclusively by mseal.c, and mseal.c is compiled
only when CONFIG_64BIT flag is set in makefile. Therefore, it is
unnecessary to have 32 bit stub function in the header file, remove this
function and merge the logic into do_mseal().

Eric reported that PTRACE_POKETEXT fails when applications use hugetlb for
mapping text using huge pages. Before commit 1d8d14641fd9 ("mm/hugetlb:
support write-faults in shared mappings"), PTRACE_POKETEXT worked by
accident, but it was buggy and silently ended up mapping pages writable
into the page tables even though VM_WRITE was not set.
In general, FOLL_FORCE|FOLL_WRITE does currently not work with hugetlb.
Let's implement FOLL_FORCE|FOLL_WRITE properly for hugetlb, such that what
used to work in the past by accident now properly works, allowing
applications using hugetlb for text etc. to get properly debugged.
This change might also be required to implement uprobes support for
hugetlb [1].

We no longer actually need to perform these checks in the f_op->mmap()
hook any longer.
We already moved the operation which clears VM_MAYWRITE on a read-only
mapping of a write-sealed memfd in order to work around the restrictions
imposed by commit 5de195060b2e ("mm: resolve faulty mmap_region() error
path behaviour").
There is no reason for us not to simply go ahead and additionally check to
see if any pre-existing seals are in place here rather than defer this to
the f_op->mmap() hook.
By doing this we remove more logic from shmem_mmap() which doesn't belong
there, as well as doing the same for hugetlbfs_file_mmap(). We also
remove dubious shared logic in mm.h which simply does not belong there
either.
It makes sense to do these checks at the earliest opportunity, we know
these are shmem (or hugetlbfs) mappings whose relevant VMA flags will not
change from the invoking do_mmap() so there is simply no need to wait.
This also means the implementation of further memfd seal flags can be done
within mm/memfd.c and also have the opportunity to modify VMA flags as
necessary early in the mapping logic.

It is of critical importance to check the return results on VMA merge (and
split), failure to do so can result in use-after-free's. This bug has
recurred, so have the compiler enforce this check to prevent any future

Convert mm_lock_seq to be seqcount_t and change all mmap_write_lock
variants to increment it, in-line with the usual seqcount usage pattern.
This lets us check whether the mmap_lock is write-locked by checking
mm_lock_seq.sequence counter (odd=locked, even=unlocked). This will be
used when implementing mmap_lock speculation functions.
As a result vm_lock_seq is also change to be unsigned to match the type
of mm_lock_seq.sequence.

shmem_parse_options() is refactored to use vfs_parse_monolithic_sep() with
a custom separator function, shmem_next_opt(). This eliminates redundant
logic for parsing comma-separated options and ensures consistency with
other kernel code that uses the same interface.
The vfs_parse_monolithic_sep() helper was introduced in commit
e001d1447cd4 ("fs: factor out vfs_parse_monolithic_sep() helper").

When we fork anonymous pages, apply a guard page then remove it, the
previous CoW mapping is cleared.
This might not be obvious to an outside observer without taking some time
to think about how the overall process functions, so document that this is
the case through a test, which also usefully asserts that the behaviour is
as we expect.
This is grouped with other, more important, fork tests that ensure that
guard pages are correctly propagated on fork.
Fix a typo in a nearby comment at the same time.

Now, if CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE is selected, the page table pages
will be freed by semi RCU, that is:
- batch table freeing: asynchronous free by RCU
- single table freeing: IPI + synchronous free
In this way, the page table can be lockless traversed by disabling IRQ in
paths such as fast GUP. But this is not enough to free the empty PTE page
table pages in paths other that munmap and exit_mmap path, because IPI
cannot be synchronized with rcu_read_lock() in pte_offset_map{_lock}().
In preparation for supporting empty PTE page table pages reclaimation, let
single table also be freed by RCU like batch table freeing. Then we can
also use pte_offset_map() etc to prevent PTE page from being freed.
Like pte_free_defer(), we can also safely use ptdesc->pt_rcu_head to free
the page table pages:
- The pt_rcu_head is unioned with pt_list and pmd_huge_pte.
- For pt_list, it is used to manage the PGD page in x86. Fortunately
tlb_remove_table() will not be used for free PGD pages, so it is safe
to use pt_rcu_head.
- For pmd_huge_pte, it is used for THPs, so it is safe.
After applying this patch, if CONFIG_PT_RECLAIM is enabled, the function
call of free_pte() is as follows:
free_pte
pte_free_tlb
__pte_free_tlb
___pte_free_tlb
paravirt_tlb_remove_table
tlb_remove_table [!CONFIG_PARAVIRT, Xen PV, Hyper-V, KVM]
[no-free-memory slowpath:]
tlb_table_invalidate
tlb_remove_table_one
__tlb_remove_table_one [frees via RCU]
[fastpath:]
tlb_table_flush
tlb_remove_table_free [frees via RCU]
native_tlb_remove_table [CONFIG_PARAVIRT on native]

Now in order to pursue high performance, applications mostly use some
high-performance user-mode memory allocators, such as jemalloc or
tcmalloc. These memory allocators use madvise(MADV_DONTNEED or MADV_FREE)
to release physical memory, but neither MADV_DONTNEED nor MADV_FREE will
release page table memory, which may cause huge page table memory usage.
The following are a memory usage snapshot of one process which actually
happened on our server:
VIRT: 55t
RES: 590g
VmPTE: 110g
In this case, most of the page table entries are empty. For such a PTE
page where all entries are empty, we can actually free it back to the
system for others to use.
As a first step, this commit aims to synchronously free the empty PTE
pages in madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) case. We will detect and free empty PTE
pages in zap_pte_range(), and will add zap_details.reclaim_pt to exclude
cases other than madvise(MADV_DONTNEED).
Once an empty PTE is detected, we first try to hold the pmd lock within
the pte lock. If successful, we clear the pmd entry directly (fast path).
Otherwise, we wait until the pte lock is released, then re-hold the pmd
and pte locks and loop PTRS_PER_PTE times to check pte_none() to re-detect
whether the PTE page is empty and free it (slow path).
For other cases such as madvise(MADV_FREE), consider scanning and freeing
empty PTE pages asynchronously in the future.
The following code snippet can show the effect of optimization:
mmap 50G
while (1) {
for (; i < 1024 * 25; i++) {
touch 2M memory
madvise MADV_DONTNEED 2M
}
}
As we can see, the memory usage of VmPTE is reduced:

VIRT 50.0 GB 50.0 GB

In move_pages_pte(), since dst_pte needs to be none, the subsequent
pte_same() check cannot prevent the dst_pte page from being freed
concurrently, so we also need to abtain dst_pmdval and recheck pmd_same().
Otherwise, once we support empty PTE page reclaimation for anonymous
pages, it may result in moving the src_pte page into the dts_pte page that
is about to be freed by RCU.

Patch series "synchronously scan and reclaim empty user PTE pages", v4.
Previously, we tried to use a completely asynchronous method to reclaim
empty user PTE pages [1]. After discussing with David Hildenbrand, we
decided to implement synchronous reclaimation in the case of
madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) as the first step.
So this series aims to synchronously free the empty PTE pages in
madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) case. We will detect and free empty PTE pages in
zap_pte_range(), and will add zap_details.reclaim_pt to exclude cases
other than madvise(MADV_DONTNEED).
In zap_pte_range(), mmu_gather is used to perform batch tlb flushing and
page freeing operations. Therefore, if we want to free the empty PTE page
in this path, the most natural way is to add it to mmu_gather as well.
Now, if CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE is selected, mmu_gather will free
page table pages by semi RCU:
- batch table freeing: asynchronous free by RCU
- single table freeing: IPI + synchronous free
But this is not enough to free the empty PTE page table pages in paths
other that munmap and exit_mmap path, because IPI cannot be synchronized
with rcu_read_lock() in pte_offset_map{_lock}(). So we should let single
table also be freed by RCU like batch table freeing.
As a first step, we supported this feature on x86_64 and selectd the newly
introduced CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_PT_RECLAIM.
For other cases such as madvise(MADV_FREE), consider scanning and freeing
empty PTE pages asynchronously in the future.
Note: issues related to TLB flushing are not new to this series and are tracked
in the separate RFC patch [3]. And more context please refer to this
thread [4].

This patch (of 11):
In retract_page_tables(), the lock of new_folio is still held, we will be
blocked in the page fault path, which prevents the pte entries from being
set again. So even though the old empty PTE page may be concurrently
freed and a new PTE page is filled into the pmd entry, it is still empty
and can be removed.
So just refactor the retract_page_tables() a little bit and recheck the
pmd state after holding the pmd lock.

fork()
If we have to trigger a hugetlb folio copy during fork() because the anon
folio might be pinned, we currently unconditionally create a writable PTE.
However, the VMA might not have write permissions (VM_WRITE) at that
point.
Fix it by checking the VMA for VM_WRITE. Make the code less error prone
by moving checking for VM_WRITE into make_huge_pte(), and letting callers
only specify whether we should try making it writable.
A simple reproducer that longterm-pins the folios using liburing to then
mprotect(PROT_READ) the folios befor fork() [1] results in:
Before:
[FAIL] access should not have worked
After:
[PASS] access did not work as expected
[1] https://gitlab.com/davidhildenbrand/scratchspace/-/raw/main/reproducers/hugetlb-mkwrite-fork.c
This is rather a corner case, so stable might not be warranted.

Previously, surplus allocations triggered by mmap were typically made from
the node where the process was running. On a page fault, the area was
reliably dequeued from the hugepage_freelists for that node. However,
since commit 003af997c8a9 ("hugetlb: force allocating surplus hugepages on
mempolicy allowed nodes"), dequeue_hugetlb_folio_vma() may fall back to
other nodes unnecessarily even if there is no MPOL_BIND policy, causing
folios to be dequeued from nodes other than the current one.
Also, allocating from the node where the current process is running is
likely to result in a performance win, as mmap-ing processes often touch
the area not so long after allocation. This change minimizes surprises
for users relying on the previous behavior while maintaining the benefit
introduced by the commit.
So, prioritize the node the current process is running on when possible.

When we succeed in creating some folios in page_cache_ra_order() but then
need to fallback to single page folios, we don't shorten the amount to
read passed to do_page_cache_ra() by the amount we've already read. This
then results in reading more and also in placing another readahead mark in
the middle of the readahead window which confuses readahead code. Fix the
problem by properly reducing number of pages to read. Unlike previous
attempt at this fix (commit 7c877586da31) which had to be reverted, we are
now careful to check there is indeed something to read so that we don't
submit negative-sized readahead.

Patch series "readahead: Reintroduce fix for improper RA window sizing".
This small patch series reintroduces a fix of readahead window confusion
(and thus read throughput reduction) when page_cache_ra_order() ends up
failing due to folios already present in the page cache. After thinking
about this for a while I have ended up with a dumb fix that just rechecks
if we have something to read before calling do_page_cache_ra(). This
fixes the problem reported in [1]. I still think it doesn't make much
sense to update readahead window size in read_pages() so patch 1 removes
that but the real fix in patch 2 does not depend on it.
[1] https://lore.kernel.org/all/49648605-d800-4859-be49-624bbe60519d@gmail.com
This patch (of 2):
When ->readahead callback doesn't read all requested pages, read_pages()
shortens the readahead window (ra->size). However we don't know why pages
were not read and what appropriate window size is. So don't try to
secondguess the filesystem. If it needs different readahead window, it
should set it manually similarly as during expansion the filesystem can

post_alloc_hook()
In the __GFP_COMP case, we already pass the gfp_flags to
prep_new_page()->post_alloc_hook(). However, in the !__GFP_COMP case, we
essentially pass only hardcoded __GFP_MOVABLE to post_alloc_hook(),
preventing some action modifiers from being effective..
Let's pass our now properly adjusted gfp flags there as well.
This way, we can now support __GFP_ZERO for alloc_contig_*().
As a side effect, we now also support __GFP_SKIP_ZERO and__GFP_ZEROTAGS;
but we'll keep the more special stuff (KASAN, NOLOCKDEP) disabled for now.
It's worth noting that with __GFP_ZERO, we might unnecessarily zero pages
when we have to release part of our range using free_contig_range() again.
This can be optimized in the future, if ever required; the caller we'll
be converting (powernv/memtrace) next won't trigger this.

It's all a bit complicated for alloc_contig_range(). For example, we
don't support many flags, so let's start bailing out on unsupported ones
-- ignoring the placement hints, as we are already given the range to
allocate.
While we currently set cc.gfp_mask, in __alloc_contig_migrate_range() we
simply create yet another GFP mask whereby we ignore the reclaim flags
specify by the caller. That looks very inconsistent.
Let's clean it up, constructing the gfp flags used for
compaction/migration exactly once. Update the documentation of the
gfp_mask parameter for alloc_contig_range() and alloc_contig_pages().

Patch series "mm/page_alloc: gfp flags cleanups for alloc_contig_*()", v2.
Let's clean up the gfp flags handling, and support __GFP_ZERO, such that we
can finally remove the TODO in memtrace code.
This patch (of 6):
The flags are no longer used, we can stop passing them to

In the near future, we want to have a single way to handover PageOffline
pages to the buddy, whereby they could have:
(a) Never been exposed to the buddy before: kept PageOffline when onlining
the memory block.
(b) Been allocated from the buddy, for example using
alloc_contig_range() to then be set PageOffline,
Let's start by making generic_online_page()->__free_pages_core() less
special compared to ordinary page freeing (e.g., free_contig_range()),
and perform the debug_pagealloc_map_pages() call unconditionally, even
when the online callback might decide to keep the pages offline.
All pages are already initialized with PageOffline, so nobody touches them
either way.

We build on previous work making expand_downwards() an entirely internal
function.
This logic is subtle and so it is highly useful to get it into vma.c so we
can then userland unit test.
We must additionally move acct_stack_growth() to vma.c as it is a helper
function used by both expand_downwards() and expand_upwards().
We are also then able to mark anon_vma_interval_tree_pre_update_vma() and
anon_vma_interval_tree_post_update_vma() static as these are no longer
used by anything else.

Right now fs/exec.c invokes expand_downwards(), an otherwise internal
implementation detail of the VMA logic in order to ensure that an arg page
can be obtained by get_user_pages_remote().
In order to be able to move the stack expansion logic into mm/vma.c to
make it available to userland testing we need to find an alternative
approach here.
We do so by providing the mmap_read_lock_maybe_expand() function which
also helpfully documents what get_arg_page() is doing here and adds an
additional check against VM_GROWSDOWN to make explicit that the stack
expansion logic is only invoked when the VMA is indeed a downward-growing
stack.
This allows expand_downwards() to become a static function.
Importantly, the VMA referenced by mmap_read_maybe_expand() must NOT be
currently user-visible in any way, that is place within an rmap or VMA
tree. It must be a newly allocated VMA.
This is the case when exec invokes this function.

We want to be able to unit test the unmapped area logic, so move it to
mm/vma.c. The wrappers which invoke this remain in place in mm/mmap.c.
In addition, naturally, update the existing test code to enable this to be
compiled in userland.

Patch series "mm/vma: make more mmap logic userland testable".
This series carries on the work started in previous series and
continued in commit 52956b0d7fb9 ("mm: isolate mmap internal logic to
mm/vma.c"), moving the remainder of memory mapping implementation
details logic into mm/vma.c allowing the bulk of the mapping logic to
be unit tested.
It is highly useful to do so, as this means we can both fundamentally test
this core logic, and introduce regression tests to ensure any issues
previously resolved do not recur.
Vitally, this includes the do_brk_flags() function, meaning we have both
core means of userland mapping memory now testable.
Performance testing was performed after this change given the brk() system
call's sensitivity to change, and no performance regression was observed.
The stack expansion logic is also moved into mm/vma.c, which necessitates
a change in the API exposed to the exec code, removing the invocation of
the expand_downwards() function used in get_arg_page() and instead adding
mmap_read_lock_maybe_expand() to wrap this.
This patch (of 5):
Now we have moved mmap_region() internals to mm/vma.c, making it available
to userland testing, it makes sense to do the same with brk().
This continues the pattern of VMA heavy lifting being done in mm/vma.c in
an environment where it can be subject to straightforward unit and
regression testing, with other VMA-adjacent files becoming wrappers around
this functionality.

Yes, when making the global variables kasan_ptr_result and
kasan_int_result as static volatile, the warnings are removed and the
variable and assignments are retained, but when just static is used I
understand that it might be optimized.
Add a fix making the global varaibles - static volatile, removing the
warnings:
mm/kasan/kasan_test.c:36:6: warning: symbol 'kasan_ptr_result' was not declared. Should it be static?
mm/kasan/kasan_test.c:37:5: warning: symbol 'kasan_int_result' was not declared. Should it be static?
