Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
"As usual, many cleanups. The below blurbiage describes 42 patchsets.
21 of those are partially or fully cleanup work. "cleans up",
"cleanup", "maintainability", "rationalizes", etc.
I never knew the MM code was so dirty.
"mm: ksm: prevent KSM from breaking merging of new VMAs" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
addresses an issue with KSM's PR_SET_MEMORY_MERGE mode: newly
mapped VMAs were not eligible for merging with existing adjacent
VMAs.
"mm/damon: introduce DAMON_STAT for simple and practical access monitoring" (SeongJae Park)
adds a new kernel module which simplifies the setup and usage of
DAMON in production environments.
"stop passing a writeback_control to swap/shmem writeout" (Christoph Hellwig)
is a cleanup to the writeback code which removes a couple of
pointers from struct writeback_control.
"drivers/base/node.c: optimization and cleanups" (Donet Tom)
contains largely uncorrelated cleanups to the NUMA node setup and
management code.
"mm: userfaultfd: assorted fixes and cleanups" (Tal Zussman)
does some maintenance work on the userfaultfd code.
"Readahead tweaks for larger folios" (Ryan Roberts)
implements some tuneups for pagecache readahead when it is reading
into order>0 folios.
"selftests/mm: Tweaks to the cow test" (Mark Brown)
provides some cleanups and consistency improvements to the
selftests code.
"Optimize mremap() for large folios" (Dev Jain)
does that. A 37% reduction in execution time was measured in a
memset+mremap+munmap microbenchmark.
"Remove zero_user()" (Matthew Wilcox)
expunges zero_user() in favor of the more modern memzero_page().
"mm/huge_memory: vmf_insert_folio_*() and vmf_insert_pfn_pud() fixes" (David Hildenbrand)
addresses some warts which David noticed in the huge page code.
These were not known to be causing any issues at this time.
"mm/damon: use alloc_migrate_target() for DAMOS_MIGRATE_{HOT,COLD" (SeongJae Park)
provides some cleanup and consolidation work in DAMON.
"use vm_flags_t consistently" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
uses vm_flags_t in places where we were inappropriately using other
types.
"mm/memfd: Reserve hugetlb folios before allocation" (Vivek Kasireddy)
increases the reliability of large page allocation in the memfd
code.
"mm: Remove pXX_devmap page table bit and pfn_t type" (Alistair Popple)
removes several now-unneeded PFN_* flags.
"mm/damon: decouple sysfs from core" (SeongJae Park)
implememnts some cleanup and maintainability work in the DAMON
sysfs layer.
"madvise cleanup" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
does quite a lot of cleanup/maintenance work in the madvise() code.
"madvise anon_name cleanups" (Vlastimil Babka)
provides additional cleanups on top or Lorenzo's effort.
"Implement numa node notifier" (Oscar Salvador)
creates a standalone notifier for NUMA node memory state changes.
Previously these were lumped under the more general memory
on/offline notifier.
"Make MIGRATE_ISOLATE a standalone bit" (Zi Yan)
cleans up the pageblock isolation code and fixes a potential issue
which doesn't seem to cause any problems in practice.
"selftests/damon: add python and drgn based DAMON sysfs functionality tests" (SeongJae Park)
adds additional drgn- and python-based DAMON selftests which are
more comprehensive than the existing selftest suite.
"Misc rework on hugetlb faulting path" (Oscar Salvador)
fixes a rather obscure deadlock in the hugetlb fault code and
follows that fix with a series of cleanups.
"cma: factor out allocation logic from __cma_declare_contiguous_nid" (Mike Rapoport)
rationalizes and cleans up the highmem-specific code in the CMA
allocator.
"mm/migration: rework movable_ops page migration (part 1)" (David Hildenbrand)
provides cleanups and future-preparedness to the migration code.
"mm/damon: add trace events for auto-tuned monitoring intervals and DAMOS quota" (SeongJae Park)
adds some tracepoints to some DAMON auto-tuning code.
"mm/damon: fix misc bugs in DAMON modules" (SeongJae Park)
does that.
"mm/damon: misc cleanups" (SeongJae Park)
also does what it claims.
"mm: folio_pte_batch() improvements" (David Hildenbrand)
cleans up the large folio PTE batching code.
"mm/damon/vaddr: Allow interleaving in migrate_{hot,cold} actions" (SeongJae Park)
facilitates dynamic alteration of DAMON's inter-node allocation
policy.
"Remove unmap_and_put_page()" (Vishal Moola)
provides a couple of page->folio conversions.
"mm: per-node proactive reclaim" (Davidlohr Bueso)
implements a per-node control of proactive reclaim - beyond the
current memcg-based implementation.
"mm/damon: remove damon_callback" (SeongJae Park)
replaces the damon_callback interface with a more general and
powerful damon_call()+damos_walk() interface.
"mm/mremap: permit mremap() move of multiple VMAs" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
implements a number of mremap cleanups (of course) in preparation
for adding new mremap() functionality: newly permit the remapping
of multiple VMAs when the user is specifying MREMAP_FIXED. It still
excludes some specialized situations where this cannot be performed
reliably.
"drop hugetlb_free_pgd_range()" (Anthony Yznaga)
switches some sparc hugetlb code over to the generic version and
removes the thus-unneeded hugetlb_free_pgd_range().
"mm/damon/sysfs: support periodic and automated stats update" (SeongJae Park)
augments the present userspace-requested update of DAMON sysfs
monitoring files. Automatic update is now provided, along with a
tunable to control the update interval.
"Some randome fixes and cleanups to swapfile" (Kemeng Shi)
does what is claims.
"mm: introduce snapshot_page" (Luiz Capitulino and David Hildenbrand)
provides (and uses) a means by which debug-style functions can grab
a copy of a pageframe and inspect it locklessly without tripping
over the races inherent in operating on the live pageframe
directly.
"use per-vma locks for /proc/pid/maps reads" (Suren Baghdasaryan)
addresses the large contention issues which can be triggered by
reads from that procfs file. Latencies are reduced by more than
half in some situations. The series also introduces several new
selftests for the /proc/pid/maps interface.
"__folio_split() clean up" (Zi Yan)
cleans up __folio_split()!
"Optimize mprotect() for large folios" (Dev Jain)
provides some quite large (>3x) speedups to mprotect() when dealing
with large folios.
"selftests/mm: reuse FORCE_READ to replace "asm volatile("" : "+r" (XXX));" and some cleanup" (wang lian)
does some cleanup work in the selftests code.
"tools/testing: expand mremap testing" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
extends the mremap() selftest in several ways, including adding
more checking of Lorenzo's recently added "permit mremap() move of
multiple VMAs" feature.
"selftests/damon/sysfs.py: test all parameters" (SeongJae Park)
extends the DAMON sysfs interface selftest so that it tests all
possible user-requested parameters. Rather than the present minimal
subset"

Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:
"A quick summary: perf support for Branch Record Buffer Extensions
(BRBE), typical PMU hardware updates, small additions to MTE for
store-only tag checking and exposing non-address bits to signal
handlers, HAVE_LIVEPATCH enabled on arm64, VMAP_STACK forced on.
There is also a TLBI optimisation on hardware that does not require
break-before-make when changing the user PTEs between contiguous and
non-contiguous.
More details:
Perf and PMU updates:
- Add support for new (v3) Hisilicon SLLC and DDRC PMUs
- Add support for Arm-NI PMU integrations that share interrupts
between clock domains within a given instance
- Allow SPE to be configured with a lower sample period than the
minimum recommendation advertised by PMSIDR_EL1.Interval
- Add suppport for Arm's "Branch Record Buffer Extension" (BRBE)
- Adjust the perf watchdog period according to cpu frequency changes
- Minor driver fixes and cleanups
Hardware features:
- Support for MTE store-only checking (FEAT_MTE_STORE_ONLY)
- Support for reporting the non-address bits during a synchronous MTE
tag check fault (FEAT_MTE_TAGGED_FAR)
- Optimise the TLBI when folding/unfolding contiguous PTEs on
hardware with FEAT_BBM (break-before-make) level 2 and no TLB
conflict aborts
Software features:
- Enable HAVE_LIVEPATCH after implementing arch_stack_walk_reliable()
and using the text-poke API for late module relocations
- Force VMAP_STACK always on and change arm64_efi_rt_init() to use
arch_alloc_vmap_stack() in order to avoid KASAN false positives
ACPI:
- Improve SPCR handling and messaging on systems lacking an SPCR
table
Debug:
- Simplify the debug exception entry path
- Drop redundant DBG_MDSCR_* macros
Kselftests:
- Cleanups and improvements for SME, SVE and FPSIMD tests
Miscellaneous:
- Optimise loop to reduce redundant operations in contpte_ptep_get()
- Remove ISB when resetting POR_EL0 during signal handling
- Mark the kernel as tainted on SEA and SError panic
- Remove redundant gcs_free() call"

Override the generic definition of modify_prot_start_ptes() to use
get_and_clear_full_ptes(). This helper does a TLBI only for the starting
and ending contpte block of the range, whereas the current implementation
will call ptep_get_and_clear() for every contpte block, thus doing a TLBI
on every contpte block. Therefore, we have a performance win.
The arm64 definition of pte_accessible() allows us to batch in the
errata specific case:
#define pte_accessible(mm, pte) \
(mm_tlb_flush_pending(mm) ? pte_present(pte) : pte_valid(pte))
All ptes are obviously present in the folio batch, and they are also valid.
Override the generic definition of modify_prot_commit_ptes() to simply use
set_ptes() to map the new ptes into the pagetable.

Set TAINT_MACHINE_CHECK when SError or Synchronous External Abort (SEA)
interrupts trigger a panic to flag potential hardware faults. This
tainting mechanism aids in debugging and enables correlation of
hardware-related crashes in large-scale deployments.
This change aligns with similar patches[1] that mark machine check
events when the system crashes due to hardware errors.

Currently we call gcs_free() when releasing task_struct but this is
redundant, it attempts to deallocate any kernel managed userspace GCS
which should no longer be relevant and resets values in the struct we're
in the process of freeing.
By the time arch_release_task_struct() is called the mm will have been
disassociated from the task so the check for a mm in gcs_free() will
always be false, for threads that are exiting leaving the mm active
deactivate_mm() will have been called previously and freed any kernel
managed GCS.

Memory hot remove unmaps and tears down various kernel page table regions
as required. The ptdump code can race with concurrent modifications of
the kernel page tables. When leaf entries are modified concurrently, the
dump code may log stale or inconsistent information for a VA range, but
this is otherwise not harmful.
But when intermediate levels of kernel page table are freed, the dump code
will continue to use memory that has been freed and potentially
reallocated for another purpose. In such cases, the ptdump code may
dereference bogus addresses, leading to a number of potential problems.
To avoid the above mentioned race condition, platforms such as arm64,
riscv and s390 take memory hotplug lock, while dumping kernel page table
via the sysfs interface /sys/kernel/debug/kernel_page_tables.
Similar race condition exists while checking for pages that might have
been marked W+X via /sys/kernel/debug/kernel_page_tables/check_wx_pages
which in turn calls ptdump_check_wx(). Instead of solving this race
condition again, let's just move the memory hotplug lock inside generic
ptdump_check_wx() which will benefit both the scenarios.
Drop get_online_mems() and put_online_mems() combination from all existing
platform ptdump code paths.

In future we intend to change the vm_flags_t type, so it isn't correct for
architecture and driver code to assume it is unsigned long. Correct this
assumption across the board.
Overall, this patch does not introduce any functional change.

Patch series "use vm_flags_t consistently".
The VMA flags field vma->vm_flags is of type vm_flags_t. Right now this
is exactly equivalent to unsigned long, but it should not be assumed to
be.
Much code that references vma->vm_flags already correctly uses vm_flags_t,
but a fairly large chunk of code simply uses unsigned long and assumes
that the two are equivalent.
This series corrects that and has us use vm_flags_t consistently.
This series is motivated by the desire to, in a future series, adjust
vm_flags_t to be a u64 regardless of whether the kernel is 32-bit or
64-bit in order to deal with the VMA flag exhaustion issue and avoid all
the various problems that arise from it (being unable to use certain
features in 32-bit, being unable to add new flags except for 64-bit, etc.)
This is therefore a critical first step towards that goal. At any rate,
using the correct type is of value regardless.
We additionally take the opportunity to refer to VMA flags as vm_flags
where possible to make clear what we're referring to.
Overall, this series does not introduce any functional change.
This patch (of 3):
We abstract the type of the VMA flags to vm_flags_t, however in may places
it is simply assumed this is unsigned long, which is simply incorrect.
At the moment this is simply an incongruity, however in future we plan to
change this type and therefore this change is a critical requirement for
doing so.
Overall, this patch does not introduce any functional change.

Now that debug exceptions are handled individually and without the need
for dynamic registration, remove the unused registration infrastructure.
This removes the external caller for `debug_exception_enter()` and
`debug_exception_exit()`.
Make them static again and remove them from the header.
Remove `early_brk64()` as it has been made redundant by
(arm64: debug: split brk64 exception entry) and is not used anymore.
Note : in `early_brk64()` `bug_brk_handler()` is called unconditionally
as a fall-through, but now `call_break_hook()` only calls it if the
immediate matches.
This does not change the behaviour in early boot, as if
`bug_brk_handler()` was called on a non-BUG immediate it would return
DBG_HOOK_ERROR anyway, which `call_break_hook()` will do if no immediate
matches.
Remove `trap_init()`, as it would be empty and a weak definition already
exists in `init/main.c`.

Register X0 contains PIE_E1_ASM and should not be written into REG_TCR2_EL1
which could have an adverse impact otherwise. This has remained undetected
till now probably because current value for PIE_E1_ASM (0xcc880e0ac0800000)
clears TCR2_EL1 which again gets set subsequently with 'tcr2' after testing
for FEAT_TCR2.
Drop this unwarranted 'msr' which is a stray change from an earlier commit.

We do not currently issue an ISB after updating POR_EL0 when
context-switching it, for instance. The rationale is that if the old
value of POR_EL0 is more restrictive and causes a fault during
uaccess, the access will be retried [1]. In other words, we are
trading an ISB on every context-switching for the (unlikely)
possibility of a spurious fault. We may also miss faults if the new
value of POR_EL0 is more restrictive, but that's considered
acceptable.
However, as things stand, a spurious Overlay fault results in
uaccess failing right away since it causes fault_from_pkey() to
return true. If an Overlay fault is reported, we therefore need to
double check POR_EL0 against vma_pkey(vma) - this is what
arch_vma_access_permitted() already does.
As it turns out, we already perform that explicit check if no
Overlay fault is reported, and we need to keep that check (see
comment added in fault_from_pkey()). Net result: the Overlay ISS2
bit isn't of much help to decide whether a pkey fault occurred.
Remove the check for the Overlay bit from fault_from_pkey() and
add a comment to try and explain the situation. While at it, also
add a comment to permission_overlay_switch() in case anyone gets
surprised by the lack of ISB.

This commit optimizes the contpte_ptep_get and contpte_ptep_get_lockless
function by adding early termination logic. It checks if the dirty and
young bits of orig_pte are already set and skips redundant bit-setting
operations during the loop. This reduces unnecessary iterations and
improves performance.
In order to verify the optimization performance, a test function has been
designed. The function's execution time and instruction statistics have
been traced using perf, and the following are the operation results on a
certain Qualcomm mobile phone chip:
Test Code:
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <sys/mman.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#define PAGE_SIZE 4096
#define CONT_PTES 16
#define TEST_SIZE (4096* CONT_PTES * PAGE_SIZE)
#define YOUNG_BIT 8
void rwdata(char *buf)
{
for (size_t i = 0; i < TEST_SIZE; i += PAGE_SIZE) {
buf[i] = 'a';
volatile char c = buf[i];
}
}
void clear_young_dirty(char *buf)
{
if (madvise(buf, TEST_SIZE, MADV_FREE) == -1) {
perror("madvise free failed");
free(buf);
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
if (madvise(buf, TEST_SIZE, MADV_COLD) == -1) {
perror("madvise free failed");
free(buf);
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
}
void set_one_young(char *buf)
{
for (size_t i = 0; i < TEST_SIZE; i += CONT_PTES * PAGE_SIZE) {
volatile char c = buf[i + YOUNG_BIT * PAGE_SIZE];
}
}
void test_contpte_perf() {
char *buf;
int ret = posix_memalign((void **)&buf, CONT_PTES * PAGE_SIZE,
TEST_SIZE);
if ((ret != 0) || ((unsigned long)buf % CONT_PTES * PAGE_SIZE)) {
perror("posix_memalign failed");
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
rwdata(buf);
#if TEST_CASE2 || TEST_CASE3
clear_young_dirty(buf);
#endif
#if TEST_CASE2
set_one_young(buf);
#endif
for (int j = 0; j < 500; j++) {
mlock(buf, TEST_SIZE);
munlock(buf, TEST_SIZE);
}
free(buf);
}
int main(void)
{
test_contpte_perf();
return 0;
}
Descriptions of three test scenarios
Scenario 1
The data of all 16 PTEs are both dirty and young.
#define TEST_CASE2 0
#define TEST_CASE3 0
Scenario 2
Among the 16 PTEs, only the 8th one is young, and there are no dirty ones.
#define TEST_CASE2 1
#define TEST_CASE3 0
Scenario 3
Among the 16 PTEs, there are neither young nor dirty ones.
#define TEST_CASE2 0
#define TEST_CASE3 1
Test results
|Scenario 1 | Original| Optimized|
|-------------------|---------------|----------------|
|instructions | 37912436160| 18731580031|
|test time | 4.2797| 2.2949|
|overhead of | | |
|contpte_ptep_get() | 21.31%| 4.80%|
|Scenario 2 | Original| Optimized|
|-------------------|---------------|----------------|
|instructions | 36701270862| 36115790086|
|test time | 3.2335| 3.0874|
|Overhead of | | |
|contpte_ptep_get() | 32.26%| 33.57%|
|Scenario 3 | Original| Optimized|
|-------------------|---------------|----------------|
|instructions | 36706279735| 36750881878|
|test time | 3.2008| 3.1249|
|Overhead of | | |
|contpte_ptep_get() | 31.94%| 34.59%|
For Scenario 1, optimized code can achieve an instruction benefit of 50.59%
and a time benefit of 46.38%.
For Scenario 2, optimized code can achieve an instruction count benefit of
1.6% and a time benefit of 4.5%.
For Scenario 3, since all the PTEs have neither the young nor the dirty
flag, the branches taken by optimized code should be the same as those of
the original code. In fact, the test results of optimized code seem to be
closer to those of the original code.
Ryan re-ran these tests on Apple M2 with 4K base pages + 64K mTHP.
Scenario 1: reduced to 56% of baseline execution time
Scenario 2: reduced to 89% of baseline execution time
Scenario 3: reduced to 91% of baseline execution time
It can be proven through test function that the optimization for
contpte_ptep_get is effective. Since the logic of contpte_ptep_get_lockless
is similar to that of contpte_ptep_get, the same optimization scheme is
also adopted for it.

If FEAT_MTE_TAGGED_FAR (Armv8.9) is supported, bits 63:60 of the fault address
are preserved in response to synchronous tag check faults (SEGV_MTESERR).
This patch modifies below to support this feature:
- Use the original FAR_EL1 value when an MTE tag check fault occurs,
if ARM64_MTE_FAR is supported so that not only logical tag
(bits 59:56) but also address tag (bits 63:60] being reported too.
- Add HWCAP for mtefar to let user know bits 63:60 includes
address tag information when when FEAT_MTE_TAGGED_FAR is supported.
Applications that require this information should install
a signal handler with the SA_EXPOSE_TAGBITS flag.
While this introduces a minor ABI change,
most applications do not set this flag and therefore will not be affected.

When converting a region via contpte_convert() to use mTHP, we have two
different goals. We have to mark each entry as contiguous, and we would
like to smear the dirty and young (access) bits across all entries in
the contiguous block. Currently, we do this by first accumulating the
dirty and young bits in the block, using an atomic
__ptep_get_and_clear() and the relevant pte_{dirty,young}() calls,
performing a tlbi, and finally smearing the correct bits across the
block using __set_ptes().
This approach works fine for BBM level 0, but with support for BBM level
2 we are allowed to reorder the tlbi to after setting the pagetable
entries. We expect the time cost of a tlbi to be much greater than the
cost of clearing and resetting the PTEs. As such, this reordering of the
tlbi outside the window where our PTEs are invalid greatly reduces the
duration the PTE are visibly invalid for other threads. This reduces the
likelyhood of a concurrent page walk finding an invalid PTE, reducing
the likelyhood of a fault in other threads, and improving performance
(more so when there are more threads).
Because we support via allowlist only bbml2 implementations that never
raise conflict aborts and instead invalidate the tlb entries
automatically in hardware, we can avoid the final flush altogether.
However, avoiding the intermediate tlbi+dsb must be carefully considered
to ensure that we remain both correct and performant. We document our
reasoning and the expected interactions further in the contpte_convert()
source. To do so we rely on the aarch64 spec (DDI 0487L.a D8.7.1.1)
requirements RNGLXZ and RJQQTC to provide guarantees that the elision is
correct.

Commit 9c006972c3fe ("arm64: mmu: drop pXd_present() checks from
pXd_free_pYd_table()") removes the pxd_present() checks because the
caller checks pxd_present(). But, in case of vmap_try_huge_pud(), the
caller only checks pud_present(); pud_free_pmd_page() recurses on each
pmd through pmd_free_pte_page(), wherein the pmd may be none. Thus it is
possible to hit a warning in the latter, since pmd_none => !pmd_table().
Thus, add a pmd_present() check in pud_free_pmd_page().
This problem was found by code inspection.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- "Add folio_mk_pte()" from Matthew Wilcox simplifies the act of
creating a pte which addresses the first page in a folio and reduces
the amount of plumbing which architecture must implement to provide
this.
- "Misc folio patches for 6.16" from Matthew Wilcox is a shower of
largely unrelated folio infrastructure changes which clean things up
and better prepare us for future work.
- "memory,x86,acpi: hotplug memory alignment advisement" from Gregory
Price adds early-init code to prevent x86 from leaving physical
memory unused when physical address regions are not aligned to memory
block size.
- "mm/compaction: allow more aggressive proactive compaction" from
Michal Clapinski provides some tuning of the (sadly, hard-coded (more
sadly, not auto-tuned)) thresholds for our invokation of proactive
compaction. In a simple test case, the reduction of a guest VM's
memory consumption was dramatic.
- "Minor cleanups and improvements to swap freeing code" from Kemeng
Shi provides some code cleaups and a small efficiency improvement to
this part of our swap handling code.
- "ptrace: introduce PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO API" from Dmitry Levin
adds the ability for a ptracer to modify syscalls arguments. At this
time we can alter only "system call information that are used by
strace system call tampering, namely, syscall number, syscall
arguments, and syscall return value.
This series should have been incorporated into mm.git's "non-MM"
branch, but I goofed.
- "fs/proc: extend the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl to report guard regions" from
Andrei Vagin extends the info returned by the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl
against /proc/pid/pagemap. This permits CRIU to more efficiently get
at the info about guard regions.
- "Fix parameter passed to page_mapcount_is_type()" from Gavin Shan
implements that fix. No runtime effect is expected because
validate_page_before_insert() happens to fix up this error.
- "kernel/events/uprobes: uprobe_write_opcode() rewrite" from David
Hildenbrand basically brings uprobe text poking into the current
decade. Remove a bunch of hand-rolled implementation in favor of
using more current facilities.
- "mm/ptdump: Drop assumption that pxd_val() is u64" from Anshuman
Khandual provides enhancements and generalizations to the pte dumping
code. This might be needed when 128-bit Page Table Descriptors are
enabled for ARM.
- "Always call constructor for kernel page tables" from Kevin Brodsky
ensures that the ctor/dtor is always called for kernel pgtables, as
it already is for user pgtables.
This permits the addition of more functionality such as "insert hooks
to protect page tables". This change does result in various
architectures performing unnecesary work, but this is fixed up where
it is anticipated to occur.
- "Rust support for mm_struct, vm_area_struct, and mmap" from Alice
Ryhl adds plumbing to permit Rust access to core MM structures.
- "fix incorrectly disallowed anonymous VMA merges" from Lorenzo
Stoakes takes advantage of some VMA merging opportunities which we've
been missing for 15 years.
- "mm/madvise: batch tlb flushes for MADV_DONTNEED and MADV_FREE" from
SeongJae Park optimizes process_madvise()'s TLB flushing.
Instead of flushing each address range in the provided iovec, we
batch the flushing across all the iovec entries. The syscall's cost
was approximately halved with a microbenchmark which was designed to
load this particular operation.
- "Track node vacancy to reduce worst case allocation counts" from
Sidhartha Kumar makes the maple tree smarter about its node
preallocation.
stress-ng mmap performance increased by single-digit percentages and
the amount of unnecessarily preallocated memory was dramaticelly
reduced.
- "mm/gup: Minor fix, cleanup and improvements" from Baoquan He removes
a few unnecessary things which Baoquan noted when reading the code.
- ""Enhance sysfs handling for memory hotplug in weighted interleave"
from Rakie Kim "enhances the weighted interleave policy in the memory
management subsystem by improving sysfs handling, fixing memory
leaks, and introducing dynamic sysfs updates for memory hotplug
support". Fixes things on error paths which we are unlikely to hit.
- "mm/damon: auto-tune DAMOS for NUMA setups including tiered memory"
from SeongJae Park introduces new DAMOS quota goal metrics which
eliminate the manual tuning which is required when utilizing DAMON
for memory tiering.
- "mm/vmalloc.c: code cleanup and improvements" from Baoquan He
provides cleanups and small efficiency improvements which Baoquan
found via code inspection.
- "vmscan: enforce mems_effective during demotion" from Gregory Price
changes reclaim to respect cpuset.mems_effective during demotion when
possible. because presently, reclaim explicitly ignores
cpuset.mems_effective when demoting, which may cause the cpuset
settings to violated.
This is useful for isolating workloads on a multi-tenant system from
certain classes of memory more consistently.
- "Clean up split_huge_pmd_locked() and remove unnecessary folio
pointers" from Gavin Guo provides minor cleanups and efficiency gains
in in the huge page splitting and migrating code.
- "Use kmem_cache for memcg alloc" from Huan Yang creates a slab cache
for `struct mem_cgroup', yielding improved memory utilization.
- "add max arg to swappiness in memory.reclaim and lru_gen" from
Zhongkun He adds a new "max" argument to the "swappiness=" argument
for memory.reclaim MGLRU's lru_gen.
This directs proactive reclaim to reclaim from only anon folios
rather than file-backed folios.
- "kexec: introduce Kexec HandOver (KHO)" from Mike Rapoport is the
first step on the path to permitting the kernel to maintain existing
VMs while replacing the host kernel via file-based kexec. At this
time only memblock's reserve_mem is preserved.
- "mm: Introduce for_each_valid_pfn()" from David Woodhouse provides
and uses a smarter way of looping over a pfn range. By skipping
ranges of invalid pfns.
- "sched/numa: Skip VMA scanning on memory pinned to one NUMA node via
cpuset.mems" from Libo Chen removes a lot of pointless VMA scanning
when a task is pinned a single NUMA mode.
Dramatic performance benefits were seen in some real world cases.
- "JFS: Implement migrate_folio for jfs_metapage_aops" from Shivank
Garg addresses a warning which occurs during memory compaction when
using JFS.
- "move all VMA allocation, freeing and duplication logic to mm" from
Lorenzo Stoakes moves some VMA code from kernel/fork.c into the more
appropriate mm/vma.c.
- "mm, swap: clean up swap cache mapping helper" from Kairui Song
provides code consolidation and cleanups related to the folio_index()
function.
- "mm/gup: Cleanup memfd_pin_folios()" from Vishal Moola does that.
- "memcg: Fix test_memcg_min/low test failures" from Waiman Long
addresses some bogus failures which are being reported by the
test_memcontrol selftest.
- "eliminate mmap() retry merge, add .mmap_prepare hook" from Lorenzo
Stoakes commences the deprecation of file_operations.mmap() in favor
of the new file_operations.mmap_prepare().
The latter is more restrictive and prevents drivers from messing with
things in ways which, amongst other problems, may defeat VMA merging.
- "memcg: decouple memcg and objcg stocks"" from Shakeel Butt decouples
the per-cpu memcg charge cache from the objcg's one.
This is a step along the way to making memcg and objcg charging
NMI-safe, which is a BPF requirement.

mov_q cannot really move PIE_E[0|1] macros into a general purpose register
as expected if those macro constants contain some 128 bit layout elements,
that are required for D128 page tables. The primary issue is that for D128,
PIE_E[0|1] are defined in terms of 128-bit types with shifting and masking,
which the assembler can't accommodate.
Instead pre-calculate these PIRE0_EL1/PIR_EL1 constants into asm-offsets.h
based PIE_E0_ASM/PIE_E1_ASM which can then be used in arch/arm64/mm/proc.S.
While here also drop PTE_MAYBE_NG/PTE_MAYBE_SHARED assembly overrides which
are not required any longer, as the compiler toolchains are smart enough to
compute both the PIE_[E0|E1]_ASM constants in all scenarios.

Constructors for PUD/P4D-level pgtables were recently introduced. They
should be called for all pgtables; make sure they are called for special
kernel mappings created by __create_pgd_mapping() too.

TL;DR: always call the PTE/PMD ctor, passing the appropriate mm to skip
ptlock_init() if unneeded.
__create_pgd_mapping() is used for creating different kinds of mappings,
and may allocate page table pages if passed an allocator callback. There
are currently three such cases:
1. create_pgd_mapping(), which is used to create the EFI mapping
2. arch_add_memory()
3. map_entry_trampoline()
1. uses pgd_pgtable_alloc() as allocator callback, which calls the
PTE/PMD ctor, while 2. and 3. use __pgd_pgtable_alloc(), which does not.
The rationale is most likely that pgtables associated with init_mm do not
make use of split page table locks, and it is therefore unnecessary to
initialise them by calling the ctor. 2. operates on swapper_pg_dir so
the allocated pgtables are clearly associated with init_mm, this is
arguably the case for 3. too (the trampoline mapping is never modified so
ptlocks are anyway irrelevant). 1. corresponds to efi_mm so ptlocks need
to be initialised in that case.
We are now moving towards calling the ctor for all page tables, even those
associated with init_mm. pagetable_{pte,pmd}_ctor() have become aware of
the associated mm so that the ptlock initialisation can be skipped for
init_mm. This patch therefore amends the allocator callbacks so that the
PTE/PMD ctor are always called, with an appropriate mm pointer to avoid
unnecessary ptlock overhead.
Modifying the prototype of the allocator callbacks to take the mm and
propagating that pointer all the way down would be pretty invasive.
Instead:
* __pgd_pgtable_alloc() (cases 2. and 3. above) is replaced with
pgd_pgtable_alloc_init_mm(), resulting in the ctors being called with
&init_mm. This is the main functional change in this patch; the ptlock
still isn't initialised, but other ctor actions (e.g.
accounting-related) are now carried out for those allocated pgtables.
* pgd_pgtable_alloc() (case 1. above) is replaced with
pgd_pgtable_alloc_special_mm(), resulting in the ctors being called with
NULL as mm. No functional change here; NULL essentially means "not
init_mm", and the ptlock is still initialised.
__pgd_pgtable_alloc() is now the common implementation of those two
helpers. While at it we switch it to using pagetable_alloc() like
standard pgtable allocator functions and remove the comment regarding ctor
calls (ctors are now always expected to be called).

Commit 90292aca9854 ("arm64: mm: use appropriate ctors for page tables")
introduced pgtable ctor calls in pgd_pgtable_alloc(). To identify the
pgtable level and call the appropriate ctor, the *_SHIFT value associated
with the pgtable level is used. However, those values do not
unambiguously identify a level, because if a given level is folded, the
*_SHIFT value will be equal to that of the upper level (e.g. PMD_SHIFT ==
PUD_SHIFT if PMD is folded).
As things stand, there is probably not much damaged done by calling the
ctor for a different level, and ARCH_ENABLE_SPLIT_PMD_PTLOCK is only
selected if PMD isn't folded (so we don't needlessly initialise
pmd_ptlock). Still, this is pretty confusing, and it would get even more
confusing when adding ctor calls for the remaining levels.
Let's simplify all this by using an enum to identify the pgtable level
instead; this way folding becomes irrelevant. This is inspired by one of
the m68k pgtable allocators (arch/m68k/include/asm/motorola_pgalloc.h).

Patch series "Always call constructor for kernel page tables", v2.
There has been much confusion around exactly when page table
constructors/destructors (pagetable_*_[cd]tor) are supposed to be called.
They were initially introduced for user PTEs only (to support split page
table locks), then at the PMD level for the same purpose. Accounting was
added later on, starting at the PTE level and then moving to higher levels
(PMD, PUD). Finally, with my earlier series "Account page tables at all
levels" [1], the ctor/dtor is run for all levels, all the way to PGD.
I thought this was the end of the story, and it hopefully is for user
pgtables, but I was wrong for what concerns kernel pgtables. The current
situation there makes very little sense:
* At the PTE level, the ctor/dtor is not called (at least in the generic
implementation). Specific helpers are used for kernel pgtables at this
level (pte_{alloc,free}_kernel()) and those have never called the
ctor/dtor, most likely because they were initially irrelevant in the
kernel case.
* At all other levels, the ctor/dtor is normally called. This is
potentially wasteful at the PMD level (more on that later).
This series aims to ensure that the ctor/dtor is always called for kernel
pgtables, as it already is for user pgtables. Besides consistency, the
main motivation is to guarantee that ctor/dtor hooks are systematically
called; this makes it possible to insert hooks to protect page tables [2],
for instance. There is however an extra challenge: split locks are not
used for kernel pgtables, and it would therefore be wasteful to initialise
them (ptlock_init()).
It is worth clarifying exactly when split locks are used. They clearly
are for user pgtables, but as illustrated in commit 61444cde9170 ("ARM:
8591/1: mm: use fully constructed struct pages for EFI pgd allocations"),
they also are for special page tables like efi_mm. The one case where
split locks are definitely unused is pgtables owned by init_mm; this is
consistent with the behaviour of apply_to_pte_range().
The approach chosen in this series is therefore to pass the mm associated
to the pgtables being constructed to pagetable_{pte,pmd}_ctor() (patch 1),
and skip ptlock_init() if mm == &init_mm (patch 3 and 7). This makes it
possible to call the PTE ctor/dtor from pte_{alloc,free}_kernel() without
unintended consequences (patch 3). As a result the accounting functions
are now called at all levels for kernel pgtables, and split locks are
never initialised.
In configurations where ptlocks are dynamically allocated (32-bit,
PREEMPT_RT, etc.) and ARCH_ENABLE_SPLIT_PMD_PTLOCK is selected, this
series results in the removal of a kmem_cache allocation for every kernel
PMD. Additionally, for certain architectures that do not use
<asm-generic/pgalloc.h> such as s390, the same optimisation occurs at the
PTE level.
===
Things get more complicated when it comes to special pgtable allocators
(patch 8-12). All architectures need such allocators to create initial
kernel pgtables; we are not concerned with those as the ctor cannot be
called so early in the boot sequence. However, those allocators may also
be used later in the boot sequence or during normal operations. There are
two main use-cases:
1. Mapping EFI memory: efi_mm (arm, arm64, riscv)
2. arch_add_memory(): init_mm
The ctor is already explicitly run (at the PTE/PMD level) in the first
case, as required for pgtables that are not associated with init_mm.
However the same allocators may also be used for the second use-case (or
others), and this is where it gets messy. Patch 1 calls the ctor with
NULL as mm in those situations, as the actual mm isn't available.
Practically this means that ptlocks will be unconditionally initialised.
This is fine on arm - create_mapping_late() is only used for the EFI
mapping. On arm64, __create_pgd_mapping() is also used by
arch_add_memory(); patch 8/9/11 ensure that ctors are called at all levels
with the appropriate mm. The situation is similar on riscv, but
propagating the mm down to the ctor would require significant refactoring.
Since they are already called unconditionally, this series leaves riscv
no worse off - patch 10 adds comments to clarify the situation.
From a cursory look at other architectures implementing arch_add_memory(),
s390 and x86 may also need a similar treatment to add constructor calls.
This is to be taken care of in a future version or as a follow-up.
===
The complications in those special pgtable allocators beg the question:
does it really make sense to treat efi_mm and init_mm differently in e.g.
apply_to_pte_range()? Maybe what we really need is a way to tell if an mm
corresponds to user memory or not, and never use split locks for non-user
mm's. Feedback and suggestions welcome!
This patch (of 12):
In preparation for calling constructors for all kernel page tables while
eliding unnecessary ptlock initialisation, let's pass down the associated
mm to the PTE/PMD level ctors. (These are the two levels where ptlocks
are used.)
In most cases the mm is already around at the point of calling the ctor so
we simply pass it down. This is however not the case for special page
table allocators:
* arch/arm/mm/mmu.c
* arch/arm64/mm/mmu.c
* arch/riscv/mm/init.c
In those cases, the page tables being allocated are either for standard
kernel memory (init_mm) or special page directories, which may not be
associated to any mm. For now let's pass NULL as mm; this will be refined
where possible in future patches.
No functional change in this patch.

Patch series "mm/ptdump: Drop assumption that pxd_val() is u64", v2.
Last argument passed down in note_page() is u64 assuming pxd_val()
returned value (all page table levels) is 64 bit - which might not be the
case going ahead when D128 page tables is enabled on arm64 platform.
Besides pxd_val() is very platform specific and its type should not be
assumed in generic MM. A similar problem exists for effective_prot(),
although it is restricted to x86 platform.
This series splits note_page() and effective_prot() into individual page
table level specific callbacks which accepts corresponding pxd_t page
table entry as an argument instead and later on all subscribing platforms
could derive pxd_val() from the table entries as required and proceed as
before.

descriptors are derived from ptdesc_t thus establishing a common original

Implement the required arch functions to enable use of contpte in the
vmap when VM_ALLOW_HUGE_VMAP is specified. This speeds up vmap
operations due to only having to issue a DSB and ISB per contpte block
instead of per pte. But it also means that the TLB pressure reduces due
to only needing a single TLB entry for the whole contpte block.
Since vmap uses set_huge_pte_at() to set the contpte, that API is now
used for kernel mappings for the first time. Although in the vmap case
we never expect it to be called to modify a valid mapping so
clear_flush() should never be called, it's still wise to make it robust
for the kernel case, so amend the tlb flush function if the mm is for
kernel space.
Tested with vmalloc performance selftests:
# kself/mm/test_vmalloc.sh \
run_test_mask=1
test_repeat_count=5
nr_pages=256
test_loop_count=100000
use_huge=1
Duration reduced from 1274243 usec to 1083553 usec on Apple M2 for 15%
reduction in time taken.

Refactor the huge_pte helpers to use the new common __set_ptes_anysz()
and __ptep_get_and_clear_anysz() APIs.
This provides 2 benefits; First, when page_table_check=on, hugetlb is
now properly/fully checked. Previously only the first page of a hugetlb
folio was checked. Second, instead of having to call __set_ptes(nr=1)
for each pte in a loop, the whole contiguous batch can now be set in one
go, which enables some efficiencies and cleans up the code.
One detail to note is that huge_ptep_clear_flush() was previously
calling ptep_clear_flush() for a non-contiguous pte (i.e. a pud or pmd
block mapping). This has a couple of disadvantages; first
ptep_clear_flush() calls ptep_get_and_clear() which transparently
handles contpte. Given we only call for non-contiguous ptes, it would be
safe, but a waste of effort. It's preferable to go straight to the layer
below. However, more problematic is that ptep_get_and_clear() is for
PAGE_SIZE entries so it calls page_table_check_pte_clear() and would not
clear the whole hugetlb folio. So let's stop special-casing the non-cont
case and just rely on get_clear_contig_flush() to do the right thing for
non-cont entries.

When operating on contiguous blocks of ptes (or pmds) for some hugetlb
sizes, we must honour break-before-make requirements and clear down the
block to invalid state in the pgtable then invalidate the relevant tlb
entries before making the pgtable entries valid again.
However, the tlb maintenance is currently always done assuming the worst
case stride (PAGE_SIZE), last_level (false) and tlb_level
(TLBI_TTL_UNKNOWN). We can do much better with the hinting; In reality,
we know the stride from the huge_pte pgsize, we are always operating
only on the last level, and we always know the tlb_level, again based on
pgsize. So let's start providing these hints.
Additionally, avoid tlb maintenace in set_huge_pte_at().
Break-before-make is only required if we are transitioning the
contiguous pte block from valid -> valid. So let's elide the
clear-and-flush ("break") if the pte range was previously invalid.

Not all huge_pte helper APIs explicitly provide the size of the
huge_pte. So the helpers have to depend on various methods to determine
the size of the huge_pte. Some of these methods are dubious.
Let's clean up the code to use preferred methods and retire the dubious
ones. The options in order of preference:
- If size is provided as parameter, use it together with
num_contig_ptes(). This is explicit and works for both present and
non-present ptes.
- If vma is provided as a parameter, retrieve size via
huge_page_size(hstate_vma(vma)) and use it together with
num_contig_ptes(). This is explicit and works for both present and
non-present ptes.
- If the pte is present and contiguous, use find_num_contig() to walk
the pgtable to find the level and infer the number of ptes from
level. Only works for *present* ptes.
- If the pte is present and not contiguous and you can infer from this
that only 1 pte needs to be operated on. This is ok if you don't care
about the absolute size, and just want to know the number of ptes.
- NEVER rely on resolving the PFN of a present pte to a folio and
getting the folio's size. This is fragile at best, because there is
nothing to stop the core-mm from allocating a folio twice as big as
the huge_pte then mapping it across 2 consecutive huge_ptes. Or just
partially mapping it.
Where we require that the pte is present, add warnings if not-present.

vmalloc_huge mappings
arm64 uses apply_to_page_range to change permissions for kernel vmalloc mappings,
which does not support changing permissions for block mappings. This function
will change permissions until it encounters a block mapping, and will bail
out with a warning. Since there are no reports of this triggering, it
implies that there are currently no cases of code doing a vmalloc_huge()
followed by partial permission change. But this is a footgun waiting to
go off, so let's detect it early and avoid the possibility of permissions
in an intermediate state. So, explicitly disallow changing permissions
for VM_ALLOW_HUGE_VMAP mappings.

Since commit
97d6786e0669 ("arm64: mm: account for hotplug memory when randomizing the linear region")
the decision whether or not to randomize the placement of the system's
DRAM inside the linear map is based on the capabilities of the CPU
rather than how much memory is present at boot time. This change was
necessary because memory hotplug may result in DRAM appearing in places
that are not covered by the linear region at all (and therefore
unusable) if the decision is solely based on the memory map at boot.
In the Android GKI kernel, which requires support for memory hotplug,
and is built with a reduced virtual address space of only 39 bits wide,
randomization of the linear map never happens in practice as a result.
And even on arm64 kernels built with support for 48 bit virtual
addressing, the wider PArange of recent CPUs means that linear map
randomization is slowly becoming a feature that only works on systems
that will soon be obsolete.
So let's just remove this feature. We can always bring it back in an
improved form if there is a real need for it.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- The series "Enable strict percpu address space checks" from Uros
Bizjak uses x86 named address space qualifiers to provide

relatively monir cleanups for the memcontrol code.
- The series "mm: fixes for device-exclusive entries (hmm)" from David
Hildenbrand fixes a boatload of issues which David found then using

Hotplugged memory can be smaller than the original memory. For example,
on my target:
root@genericarmv8:~# cat /sys/kernel/debug/memblock/memory
0: 0x0000000064005000..0x0000000064023fff 0 NOMAP
1: 0x0000000064400000..0x00000000647fffff 0 NOMAP
2: 0x0000000068000000..0x000000006fffffff 0 DRV_MNG
3: 0x0000000088800000..0x0000000094ffefff 0 NONE
4: 0x0000000094fff000..0x0000000094ffffff 0 NOMAP
max_pfn will affect read_page_owner. Therefore, it should first compare and
then select the larger value for max_pfn.

Restricted pointers ("%pK") are not meant to be used through printk().
It can unintentionally expose security sensitive, raw pointer values.
Use regular pointer formatting instead.

The point where the memory is released from memblock to the buddy
allocator is hidden inside arch-specific mem_init()s and the call to
memblock_free_all() is needlessly duplicated in every artiste cure and
after introduction of arch_mm_preinit() hook, mem_init() implementation on
many architecture only contains the call to memblock_free_all().
Pull memblock_free_all() call into mm_core_init() and drop mem_init() on
relevant architectures to make it more explicit where the free memory is
released from memblock to the buddy allocator and to reduce code
duplication in architecture specific code.

Currently, implementation of mem_init() in every architecture consists of
one or more of the following:
* initializations that must run before page allocator is active, for
instance swiotlb_init()
* a call to memblock_free_all() to release all the memory to the buddy
allocator
* initializations that must run after page allocator is ready and there is
no arch-specific hook other than mem_init() for that, like for example
register_page_bootmem_info() in x86 and sparc64 or simple setting of
mem_init_done = 1 in several architectures
* a bunch of semi-related stuff that apparently had no better place to
live, for example a ton of BUILD_BUG_ON()s in parisc.
Introduce arch_mm_preinit() that will be the first thing called from
mm_core_init(). On architectures that have initializations that must happen
before the page allocator is ready, move those into arch_mm_preinit() along
with the code that does not depend on ordering with page allocator setup.
On several architectures this results in reduction of mem_init() to a
single call to memblock_free_all() that allows its consolidation next.

high_memory defines upper bound on the directly mapped memory. This bound
is defined by the beginning of ZONE_HIGHMEM when a system has high memory
and by the end of memory otherwise.
All this is known to generic memory management initialization code that
can set high_memory while initializing core mm structures.
Add a generic calculation of high_memory to free_area_init() and remove
per-architecture calculation except for the architectures that set and use
high_memory earlier than that.

Platforms subscribe into generic ptdump implementation via GENERIC_PTDUMP.
But generic ptdump gets enabled via PTDUMP_CORE. These configs
combination is confusing as they sound very similar and does not
differentiate between platform's feature subscription and feature
enablement for ptdump. Rename the configs as ARCH_HAS_PTDUMP and PTDUMP
making it more clear and improve readability.

ioremap_prot() currently accepts pgprot_val parameter as an unsigned long,
thus implicitly assuming that pgprot_val and pgprot_t could never be
bigger than unsigned long. But this assumption soon will not be true on
arm64 when using D128 pgtables. In 128 bit page table configuration,
unsigned long is 64 bit, but pgprot_t is 128 bit.
Passing platform abstracted pgprot_t argument is better as compared to
size based data types. Let's change the parameter to directly pass
pgprot_t like another similar helper generic_ioremap_prot().
Without this change in place, D128 configuration does not work on arm64 as
the top 64 bits gets silently stripped when passing the protection value
to this function.

This patch lays the groundwork for supporting batch PTE unmapping in
try_to_unmap_one(). It introduces range handling for TLB batch flushing,
with the range currently set to the size of PAGE_SIZE.
The function __flush_tlb_range_nosync() is architecture-specific and is
only used within arch/arm64. This function requires the mm structure
instead of the vma structure. To allow its reuse by
arch_tlbbatch_add_pending(), which operates with mm but not vma, this
patch modifies the argument of __flush_tlb_range_nosync() to take mm as
its parameter.

Address bytes shifted with a single 64 bit page table entry (any page table
level) has been always hard coded as 3 (aka 2^3 = 8). Although intuitive it
is not very readable or easy to reason about. Besides it is going to change
with D128, where each 128 bit page table entry will shift address bytes by
4 (aka 2^4 = 16) instead.
Let's just formalise this address bytes shift value into a new macro called
PTDESC_ORDER establishing a logical abstraction, thus improving readability
as well. While here re-organize EARLY_LEVEL macro along with its dependents
for better clarity. This does not cause any functional change. Also replace
all (PAGE_SHIFT - PTDESC_ORDER) instances with PTDESC_TABLE_SHIFT.
