dereference_symbol_descriptor() needs to obtain the module pointer
belonging to pointer in order to resolve that pointer.
The returned mod pointer is obtained under RCU-sched/ preempt_disable()
guarantees and needs to be used within this section to ensure that the
module is not removed in the meantime.
Extend the preempt_disable() section to also cover
dereference_module_function_descriptor().

syzkaller reported a UBSAN shift-out-of-bounds warning of (1UL << order)

because it is union with flags. Add back the MAX_PAGE_ORDER check to fix
the warning.

The comment removed in this patch originally belonged to the
build_zonelists_in_zone_order() function, which was introduced by commit
f0c0b2b808f2 ("change zonelist order: zonelist order selection logic").
Later, commit c9bff3eebc09 ("mm, page_alloc: rip out ZONELIST_ORDER_ZONE")
removed build_zonelists_in_zone_order() but left its comment behind.
Subsequently, commit 9d3be21bf9c0 ("mm, page_alloc: simplify zonelist
initialization") moved the node_order variable into build_zonelists(),
making the comment originally belonged to build_zonelists_in_zone_order()
appear as if it were part of build_zonelists().
Remove this misleading comment.

The virtual_address_range selftest reads from the start of each mapping
listed in /proc/self/maps. However not all mappings are valid to be
arbitrarily accessed.
For example the vvar data used for virtual clocks on x86 [vvar_vclock] can
only be accessed if 1) the kernel configuration enables virtual clocks and
2) the hypervisor provided the data for it. Only the VDSO itself has the
necessary information to know this. Since commit e93d2521b27f ("x86/vdso:
Split virtual clock pages into dedicated mapping") the virtual clock data
was split out into its own mapping, leading to EFAULT from read() during
the validation.
Check for the VM_IO flag as a proxy. It is present for the VVAR mappings
and MMIO ranges can be dangerous to access arbitrarily.

Upcoming changes want to reuse the /proc/self/smaps parsing logic to parse
the VmFlags field.
As that works differently from the currently parsed HugePage counters,
split up the logic so common functionality can be shared.
While reworking this code, also use the correct sscanf placeholder for the
"uint64_t thp" variable.

For each accessed chunk a PTE is created. More than 1GiB of PTEs is used
in this way. Remove each PTE after validating a chunk to reduce peak
memory usage.
It is important to only unmap memory that previously mmap()ed, as
unmapping other mappings like the stack, heap or executable mappings will
crash the process.
The mappings read from /proc/self/maps and the return values from mmap()
don't allow a simple correlation due to merging and no guaranteed order.
To correlate the pointers and mappings use prctl(PR_SET_VMA_ANON_NAME).
While it introduces a test dependency, other alternatives would introduce
runtime or development overhead.

Patch series "selftests/mm: virtual_address_range: Reduce memory", v4.
The selftest started failing since commit e93d2521b27f ("x86/vdso: Split
virtual clock pages into dedicated mapping") was merged. While debugging
I stumbled upon some memory usage optimizations.
With these test now runs on a VM with only 60MiB of memory.
This patch (of 4):
When mapping a larger chunk than physical memory is available with
PROT_WRITE and overcommit is disabled, the mapping will fail. This will
prevent the test from running on systems with less then ~1GiB of memory
and triggering an inscrutinable test failure. As the mappings are never
written to anyways, the flag can be removed.

Callers can pass this in for uncached folio creation, in which case if a
folio is newly created it gets marked as uncached. If a folio exists for
this index and lookup succeeds, then it will not get marked as uncached.
If an !uncached lookup finds a cached folio, clear the flag. For that
case, there are competeting uncached and cached users of the folio, and it
should not get pruned.

When a buffered write submitted with IOCB_DONTCACHE has been successfully
submitted, call filemap_fdatawrite_range_kick() to kick off the IO. File
systems call generic_write_sync() for any successful buffered write
submission, hence add the logic here rather than needing to modify the
file system.

Works like filemap_fdatawrite_range(), except it's a non-integrity data
writeback and hence only starts writeback on the specified range. Will
help facilitate generically starting uncached writeback from
generic_write_sync(), as header dependencies preclude doing this inline
from fs.h.

Add RWF_DONTCACHE as a read operation flag, which means that any data read
wil be removed from the page cache upon completion. Uses the page cache
to synchronize, and simply prunes folios that were instantiated when the
operation completes. While it would be possible to use private pages for
this, using the page cache as synchronization is handy for a variety of
reasons:
1) No special truncate magic is needed
2) Async buffered reads need some place to serialize, using the page
cache is a lot easier than writing extra code for this
3) The pruning cost is pretty reasonable
and the code to support this is much simpler as a result.
You can think of uncached buffered IO as being the much more attractive
cousin of O_DIRECT - it has none of the restrictions of O_DIRECT. Yes, it
will copy the data, but unlike regular buffered IO, it doesn't run into
the unpredictability of the page cache in terms of reclaim. As an
example, on a test box with 32 drives, reading them with buffered IO looks
as follows:
Reading bs 65536, uncached 0
1s: 145945MB/sec
2s: 158067MB/sec
3s: 157007MB/sec
4s: 148622MB/sec
5s: 118824MB/sec
6s: 70494MB/sec
7s: 41754MB/sec
8s: 90811MB/sec
9s: 92204MB/sec
10s: 95178MB/sec
11s: 95488MB/sec
12s: 95552MB/sec
13s: 96275MB/sec
where it's quite easy to see where the page cache filled up, and
performance went from good to erratic, and finally settles at a much
lower rate. Looking at top while this is ongoing, we see:

where just the test app is using CPU, no reclaim is taking place outside

half the CPU to do it.

If a file system supports uncached buffered IO, it may set FOP_DONTCACHE
and enable support for RWF_DONTCACHE. If RWF_DONTCACHE is attempted
without the file system supporting it, it'll get errored with -EOPNOTSUPP.

Add a folio_unmap_invalidate() helper, which unmaps and invalidates a
given folio. The caller must already have locked the folio. Embed the
old invalidate_complete_folio2() helper in there as well, as nobody else
calls it.
Use this new helper in invalidate_inode_pages2_range(), rather than
duplicate the code there.
In preparation for using this elsewhere as well, have it take a gfp_t mask
rather than assume GFP_KERNEL is the right choice. This bubbles back to
invalidate_complete_folio2() as well.

Patch series "Uncached buffered IO", v8.
5 years ago I posted patches adding support for RWF_UNCACHED, as a way to
do buffered IO that isn't page cache persistent. The approach back then
was to have private pages for IO, and then get rid of them once IO was
done. But that then runs into all the issues that O_DIRECT has, in terms
of synchronizing with the page cache.
So here's a new approach to the same concent, but using the page cache as
synchronization. Due to excessive bike shedding on the naming, this is
now named RWF_DONTCACHE, and is less special in that it's just page cache
IO, except it prunes the ranges once IO is completed.
Why do this, you may ask? The tldr is that device speeds are only getting
faster, while reclaim is not. Doing normal buffered IO can be very
unpredictable, and suck up a lot of resources on the reclaim side. This
leads people to use O_DIRECT as a work-around, which has its own set of
restrictions in terms of size, offset, and length of IO. It's also
inherently synchronous, and now you need async IO as well. While the
latter isn't necessarily a big problem as we have good options available
there, it also should not be a requirement when all you want to do is read
or write some data without caching.
Even on desktop type systems, a normal NVMe device can fill the entire
page cache in seconds. On the big system I used for testing, there's a
lot more RAM, but also a lot more devices. As can be seen in some of the
results in the following patches, you can still fill RAM in seconds even
when there's 1TB of it. Hence this problem isn't solely a "big
hyperscaler system" issue, it's common across the board.
Common for both reads and writes with RWF_DONTCACHE is that they use the
page cache for IO. Reads work just like a normal buffered read would,
with the only exception being that the touched ranges will get pruned
after data has been copied. For writes, the ranges will get writeback
kicked off before the syscall returns, and then writeback completion will
prune the range. Hence writes aren't synchronous, and it's easy to
pipeline writes using RWF_DONTCACHE. Folios that aren't instantiated by
RWF_DONTCACHE IO are left untouched. This means you that uncached IO will
take advantage of the page cache for uptodate data, but not leave anything
it instantiated/created in cache.
File systems need to support this. This patchset adds support for the
generic read path, which covers file systems like ext4. Patches exist to
add support for iomap/XFS and btrfs as well, which sit on top of this
series. If RWF_DONTCACHE IO is attempted on a file system that doesn't
support it, -EOPNOTSUPP is returned. Hence the user can rely on it either
working as designed, or flagging and error if that's not the case. The
intent here is to give the application a sensible fallback path - eg, it
may fall back to O_DIRECT if appropriate, or just live with the fact that
uncached IO isn't available and do normal buffered IO.
Adding "support" to other file systems should be trivial, most of the time
just a one-liner adding FOP_DONTCACHE to the fop_flags in the
file_operations struct, if the file system is using either iomap or the
generic filemap helpers for reading and writing.
Performance results are in patch 8 for reads, and you can find the write
side results in the XFS patch adding support for DONTCACHE writes for XFS:
https://git.kernel.dk/cgit/linux/commit/?h=buffered-uncached-fs.10&id=257e92de795fdff7d7e256501e024fac6da6a7f4
with the tldr being that I see about a 65% improvement in performance for
both, with fully predictable IO times. CPU reduction is substantial as
well, with no kswapd activity at all for reclaim when using uncached IO.
Using it from applications is trivial - just set RWF_DONTCACHE for the
read or write, using pwritev2(2) or preadv2(2). For io_uring, same thing,
just set RWF_DONTCACHE in sqe->rw_flags for a buffered read/write
operation. And that's it.
Patches 1..7 are just prep patches, and should have no functional changes
at all. Patch 8 adds support for the filemap path for RWF_DONTCACHE
reads, and patches 9..12 are just prep patches for supporting the write
side of uncached writes. In the below mentioned branch, there are then
patches to adopt uncached reads and writes for xfs, btrfs, and ext4. The
latter currently relies on bit of a hack for passing whether this is an
uncached write or not through ->write_begin(), which can hopefully go away
once ext4 adopts iomap for buffered writes. I say this is a hack as it's
not the prettiest way to do it, however it is fully solid and will work
just fine.
Passes full xfstests and fsx overnight runs, no issues observed. That
includes the vm running the testing also using RWF_DONTCACHE on the host.
I'll post fsstress and fsx patches for RWF_DONTCACHE separately. As far
as I'm concerned, no further work needs doing here.
And git tree for the patches is here:
https://git.kernel.dk/cgit/linux/log/?h=buffered-uncached.10
with the file system patches on top adding support for xfs/btrfs/ext4
here:
https://git.kernel.dk/cgit/linux/log/?h=buffered-uncached-fs.10
This patch (of 12):
Rather than pass in both the file and position directly from the kiocb,
just take a struct kiocb instead. With the kiocb being passed in, skip
passing in the address_space separately as well. While doing so, move the
ki_flags checking into filemap_create_folio() as well. In preparation for
actually needing the kiocb in the function.
No functional changes in this patch.

We replaced a simple put_page() by a putback_active_hugepage() call in
commit 3aaa76e125c1 ("mm: migrate: hugetlb: putback destination hugepage
to active list"), to set the "active" flag on the dst hugetlb folio.
Nowadays, we decoupled the "active" list from the flag, by calling the
flag "migratable".
Calling "putback" on something that wasn't allocated is weird and not
future proof, especially if we might reach that path when migration failed
and we just want to free the freshly allocated hugetlb folio.
Let's simply handle the migratable flag and the active list flag in
move_hugetlb_state(), where we know that allocation succeeded and already
handle the temporary flag; use a simple folio_put() to return our
reference.

In /proc/<pid>/ksm_stat, add two extra ksm involvement items including
KSM_mergeable and KSM_merge_any. It helps administrators to better know
the system's KSM behavior at process level.
ksm_merge_any: yes/no
whether the process'mm is added by prctl() into the candidate list
of KSM or not, and fully enabled at process level.
ksm_mergeable: yes/no
whether any VMAs of the process'mm are currently applicable to KSM.
Purpose
=======
These two items are just to improve the observability of KSM at process
level, so that users can know if a certain process has enabled KSM.
For example, if without these two items, when we look at
/proc/<pid>/ksm_stat and there's no merging pages found, We are not sure
whether it is because KSM was not enabled or because KSM did not
successfully merge any pages.
Although "mg" in /proc/<pid>/smaps indicate VM_MERGEABLE, it's opaque
and not very obvious for non professionals.

The existing logic uses strnlen_user() to calculate the length of the
memfd name from userspace and then copies the string into a buffer using
copy_from_user(). This is error-prone, as the string length could have
changed between the time when it was calculated and when the string was
copied. The existing logic handles this by ensuring that the last byte in
the buffer is the terminating zero.
This handling is contrived and can better be handled by using
strncpy_from_user(), which gets the length of the string and copies it in
one shot. Therefore, simplify the logic for copying the memfd name by
using strncpy_from_user().
No functional change.

Patch series "Cleanup for memfd_create()", v4.
memfd_create() handles all of its logic in a single function. Some of the
logic in the function is also somewhat contrived (i.e. copying the memfd
name from userpace).
This series aims to cleanup memfd_create() by splitting out the logic into
helper functions, and simplifying the memfd name copying to make the code
easier to follow.
This has no intended functional changes.
Thank you Alice and Lorenzo for reviewing v3 of this series and for your
feedback!
This patch (of 2):
memfd_create() is a pretty busy function that could be easier to read if
some of the logic was split out into helper functions.
Therefore, split the flags sanitization, name allocation, and file
structure allocation into their own helper functions.
No functional change.

The kernel-doc comment for 'struct damos_quota' describes how "effective
quota" is calculated, but does not explain what it is. Actually there was
an input[1] about it. Add the explanation on the comment.
Also, fix a trivial typo on the comment block: s/empt/empty/

Two of DAMON user-space tool (damo) commands that are used for examples on
DAMON getting started document, namely 'damo show' and 'damo report heats'
are deprecated[1,2], and replaced by new commands that provides same
functions with unified and simplified user interfaces. Also the example
output of 'damo show' is outdated. 'damo schemes' command is not
deprecated, but users are recommended to use 'damo start' or 'damo tune'
instead.
Update the examples to use the replacements, recommendations, and
up-to-date output formats.

files on files hierarchy
DAMOS filter directory part of DAMON sysfs files hierarchy on the usage
document is wrong. 'memcg_path' file under the directory is wrongly
written as 'memcg_id'. Also the directory has 'addr_start', 'addr_end',
and 'target_idx' files, but the list is missing those. Fix the wrong name
and add missing files.
