Refer __percpu_prefix to __force_percpu_prefix to avoid duplicate
definition. While there, slightly reorder definitions to a more
logical sequence, remove unneeded double quotes and move misplaced
comment to the right place.
No functional changes intended.

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
compile-time checking of percpu area accesses.
This has caused a small amount of fallout - two or three issues were
reported. In all cases the calling code was found to be incorrect.
- The series "Some cleanup for memcg" from Chen Ridong implements some
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
device-exclusive PTE entries when THP is enabled. More work is
needed, but this makes thins better - our own HMM selftests now
succeed.
- The series "mm: zswap: remove z3fold and zbud" from Yosry Ahmed
remove the z3fold and zbud implementations. They have been deprecated
for half a year and nobody has complained.
- The series "mm: further simplify VMA merge operation" from Lorenzo
Stoakes implements numerous simplifications in this area. No runtime
effects are anticipated.
- The series "mm/madvise: remove redundant mmap_lock operations from
process_madvise()" from SeongJae Park rationalizes the locking in the
madvise() implementation. Performance gains of 20-25% were observed
in one MADV_DONTNEED microbenchmark.
- The series "Tiny cleanup and improvements about SWAP code" from
Baoquan He contains a number of touchups to issues which Baoquan
noticed when working on the swap code.
- The series "mm: kmemleak: Usability improvements" from Catalin
Marinas implements a couple of improvements to the kmemleak
user-visible output.
- The series "mm/damon/paddr: fix large folios access and schemes
handling" from Usama Arif provides a couple of fixes for DAMON's
handling of large folios.
- The series "mm/damon/core: fix wrong and/or useless damos_walk()
behaviors" from SeongJae Park fixes a few issues with the accuracy of
kdamond's walking of DAMON regions.
- The series "expose mapping wrprotect, fix fb_defio use" from Lorenzo
Stoakes changes the interaction between framebuffer deferred-io and
core MM. No functional changes are anticipated - this is preparatory
work for the future removal of page structure fields.
- The series "mm/damon: add support for hugepage_size DAMOS filter"
from Usama Arif adds a DAMOS filter which permits the filtering by
huge page sizes.
- The series "mm: permit guard regions for file-backed/shmem mappings"
from Lorenzo Stoakes extends the guard region feature from its
present "anon mappings only" state. The feature now covers shmem and
file-backed mappings.
- The series "mm: batched unmap lazyfree large folios during
reclamation" from Barry Song cleans up and speeds up the unmapping
for pte-mapped large folios.
- The series "reimplement per-vma lock as a refcount" from Suren
Baghdasaryan puts the vm_lock back into the vma. Our reasons for
pulling it out were largely bogus and that change made the code more
messy. This patchset provides small (0-10%) improvements on one
microbenchmark.
- The series "Docs/mm/damon: misc DAMOS filters documentation fixes and
improves" from SeongJae Park does some maintenance work on the DAMON
docs.
- The series "hugetlb/CMA improvements for large systems" from Frank
van der Linden addresses a pile of issues which have been observed
when using CMA on large machines.
- The series "mm/damon: introduce DAMOS filter type for unmapped pages"
from SeongJae Park enables users of DMAON/DAMOS to filter my the
page's mapped/unmapped status.
- The series "zsmalloc/zram: there be preemption" from Sergey
Senozhatsky teaches zram to run its compression and decompression
operations preemptibly.
- The series "selftests/mm: Some cleanups from trying to run them" from
Brendan Jackman fixes a pile of unrelated issues which Brendan
encountered while runnimg our selftests.
- The series "fs/proc/task_mmu: add guard region bit to pagemap" from
Lorenzo Stoakes permits userspace to use /proc/pid/pagemap to
determine whether a particular page is a guard page.
- The series "mm, swap: remove swap slot cache" from Kairui Song
removes the swap slot cache from the allocation path - it simply
wasn't being effective.
- The series "mm: cleanups for device-exclusive entries (hmm)" from
David Hildenbrand implements a number of unrelated cleanups in this
code.
- The series "mm: Rework generic PTDUMP configs" from Anshuman Khandual
implements a number of preparatoty cleanups to the GENERIC_PTDUMP
Kconfig logic.
- The series "mm/damon: auto-tune aggregation interval" from SeongJae
Park implements a feedback-driven automatic tuning feature for
DAMON's aggregation interval tuning.
- The series "Fix lazy mmu mode" from Ryan Roberts fixes some issues in
powerpc, sparc and x86 lazy MMU implementations. Ryan did this in
preparation for implementing lazy mmu mode for arm64 to optimize
vmalloc.
- The series "mm/page_alloc: Some clarifications for migratetype
fallback" from Brendan Jackman reworks some commentary to make the
code easier to follow.
- The series "page_counter cleanup and size reduction" from Shakeel
Butt cleans up the page_counter code and fixes a size increase which
we accidentally added late last year.
- The series "Add a command line option that enables control of how
many threads should be used to allocate huge pages" from Thomas
Prescher does that. It allows the careful operator to significantly
reduce boot time by tuning the parallalization of huge page
initialization.
- The series "Fix calculations in trace_balance_dirty_pages() for cgwb"
from Tang Yizhou fixes the tracing output from the dirty page
balancing code.
- The series "mm/damon: make allow filters after reject filters useful
and intuitive" from SeongJae Park improves the handling of allow and
reject filters. Behaviour is made more consistent and the documention
is updated accordingly.
- The series "Switch zswap to object read/write APIs" from Yosry Ahmed
updates zswap to the new object read/write APIs and thus permits the
removal of some legacy code from zpool and zsmalloc.
- The series "Some trivial cleanups for shmem" from Baolin Wang does as
it claims.
- The series "fs/dax: Fix ZONE_DEVICE page reference counts" from
Alistair Popple regularizes the weird ZONE_DEVICE page refcount
handling in DAX, permittig the removal of a number of special-case
checks.
- The series "refactor mremap and fix bug" from Lorenzo Stoakes is a
preparatoty refactoring and cleanup of the mremap() code.
- The series "mm: MM owner tracking for large folios (!hugetlb) +
CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT" from David Hildenbrand reworks the manner in
which we determine whether a large folio is known to be mapped
exclusively into a single MM.
- The series "mm/damon: add sysfs dirs for managing DAMOS filters based
on handling layers" from SeongJae Park adds a couple of new sysfs
directories to ease the management of DAMON/DAMOS filters.
- The series "arch, mm: reduce code duplication in mem_init()" from

Capitulino reworks the page_ext initialization to fix a boot-time
crash which was observed with an unusual combination of compile and
cmdline options.
- The series "Buddy allocator like (or non-uniform) folio split" from
Zi Yan reworks the code to split a folio into smaller folios. The
main benefit is lessened memory consumption: fewer post-split folios
are generated.
- The series "Minimize xa_node allocation during xarry split" from Zi
Yan reduces the number of xarray xa_nodes which are generated during
an xarray split.

While the GCC and Clang compilers already define __ASSEMBLER__
automatically when compiling assembly code, __ASSEMBLY__ is a
macro that only gets defined by the Makefiles in the kernel.
This can be very confusing when switching between userspace
and kernelspace coding, or when dealing with UAPI headers that
rather should use __ASSEMBLER__ instead. So let's standardize on
the __ASSEMBLER__ macro that is provided by the compilers now.
This is mostly a mechanical patch (done with a simple "sed -i"
statement), with some manual tweaks in <asm/frame.h>, <asm/hw_irq.h>
and <asm/setup.h> that mentioned this macro in comments with some
missing underscores.

According to:
https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Size-of-an-asm.html
the usage of asm pseudo directives in the asm template can confuse
the compiler to wrongly estimate the size of the generated
code.
The ALTERNATIVE macro expands to several asm pseudo directives,
so its usage in {,try_}cmpxchg{64,128} causes instruction length estimate
to fail by an order of magnitude (the specially instrumented compiler
reports the estimated length of these asm templates to be more than 20
instructions long).
This incorrect estimate further causes unoptimal inlining
decisions, unoptimal instruction scheduling and unoptimal code block
alignments for functions that use these locking primitives.
Use asm_inline instead:
https://gcc.gnu.org/pipermail/gcc-patches/2018-December/512349.html
which is a feature that makes GCC pretend some inline assembler code
is tiny (while it would think it is huge), instead of just asm.
For code size estimation, the size of the asm is then taken as
the minimum size of one instruction, ignoring how many instructions
compiler thinks it is.
The effect of this patch on x86_64 target is minor, since 128-bit
functions are rarely used on this target. The code size of the resulting
defconfig object file stays the same:
text data bss dec hex filename
27456612 4638523 814148 32909283 1f627e3 vmlinux-old.o
27456612 4638523 814148 32909283 1f627e3 vmlinux-new.o
but the patch has minor effect on code layout due to the different
scheduling decisions in functions containing changed macros.
There is no effect on the x64_32 target, the code size of the resulting
defconfig object file and the code layout stays the same:
text data bss dec hex filename
18883870 2679275 1707916 23271061 1631695 vmlinux-old.o
18883870 2679275 1707916 23271061 1631695 vmlinux-new.o

percpu_{,try_}cmpxchg{64,128}() macros use CALL instruction inside
asm statement in one of their alternatives. Use ALT_OUTPUT_SP()
macro to add required dependence on %esp register.
ALT_OUTPUT_SP() implements the above dependence by adding
ASM_CALL_CONSTRAINT to its arguments. This constraint should be used
for any inline asm which has a CALL instruction, otherwise the
compiler may schedule the asm before the frame pointer gets set up
by the containing function, causing objtool to print a "call without
frame pointer save/setup" warning.

Patch series "percpu: Add a test case and fix for clang", v2.
Add a test case to percpu to check a corner case with the specific 64-bit
unsigned value. This test case shows why the first patch is done in the
way it's done.
The before and after has been tested with binary comparison of the
percpu_test module and runnig it on the real Intel system.
This patch (of 2):
When percpu_add_op() is used with an unsigned argument, it prevents kernel
builds with clang, `make W=1` and CONFIG_WERROR=y:
net/ipv4/tcp_output.c:187:3: error: result of comparison of constant -1 with expression of type 'u8' (aka 'unsigned char') is always false [-Werror,-Wtautological-constant-out-of-range-compare]

Fix this by casting -1 to the type of the parameter and then compare.

__raw_cpu_write() with !USE_X86_SEG_SUPPORT config uses read/write
operand constraint modifier "+" for its memory location. This signals
the compiler that the location is both read and written by the asm.
This is not true, because MOV insn only writes to the output.
Correct the modifier to "=" to inform the compiler that the memory
location is only written to. This also prevents the compiler from
value tracking the undefined value from the uninitialized memory.

Fix Sparse warning when casting from __percpu address space by using
__force in the cast. x86 named address spaces are not considered to
be subspaces of the generic (flat) address space, so explicit casts
are required to convert pointers between these address spaces and the
generic address space (the application should cast to uintptr_t and
apply the segment base offset). The cast to uintptr_t removes
__percpu address space tag and Sparse reports:
warning: cast removes address space '__percpu' of expression
Use __force to inform Sparse that the cast is intentional.

this_cpu_read_stable() macro uses __pcpu_size_call_return()
that unconditionally calls this_cpu_read_stable_8() also for
32-bit targets. This usage is ivalid as it will result in the
generation of 64-bit MOVQ instruction on 32-bit targets via
percpu_stable_op() macro.
Since there is no generic support for this_cpu_read_stable_8() for
32-bit targets, the patch defines this_cpu_read_stable_8() to
BUILD_BUG() when CONFIG_X86_64 is not defined. This way, we are
sure that this_cpu_read_stable_8() won't actually be used for
32-bit targets, but it is still defined to prevent build failure.

When building a 32-bit vDSO for a 64-bit kernel, games are played with
CONFIG_X86_64. {this,raw}_cpu_read_8() macros are conditionally defined
on CONFIG_X86_64 and when CONFIG_X86_64 is undefined in fake_32bit_build.h
various build failures in generic percpu header files can happen. To make
things worse, the build of 32-bit vDSO for a 64-bit kernel grew dependency
on arch_raw_cpu_ptr() macro and the build fails if arch_raw_cpu_ptr()
macro is not defined.
To mitigate these issues, x86 carefully defines arch_raw_cpu_ptr() to
avoid any dependency on raw_cpu_read_8() and thus CONFIG_X86_64. W/o
segment register support, the definition uses size-agnostic MOV asm
mnemonic and hopes that _ptr argument won't ever be 64-bit size on
32-bit targets (although newer GCCs warn for this situation with
"unsupported size for integer register"), and w/ segment register
support the definition uses size-agnostic __raw_cpu_read() macro.
Fortunately, raw_cpu_read() is not used in 32-bit vDSO for a 64-bit kernel.
However, we can't simply omit the definition of arch_raw_cpu_read(),
since the build will fail when building vdso/vdso32/vclock_gettime.o.
The patch defines arch_raw_cpu_ptr to BUILD_BUG() when BUILD_VDSO32_64
macro is defined. This way, we are sure that arch_raw_cpu_ptr() won't
actually be used in 32-bit VDSO for a 64-bit kernel, but it is still
defined to prevent build failure.
Finally, we can unify arch_raw_cpu_ptr() between builds w/ and w/o
x86 segment register support, substituting two tricky macro definitions
with a straightforward implementation.
There is no size difference and no difference in number of this_cpu_off
accesses between patched and unpatched kernel when the kernel is built
either w/ and w/o segment register support.

generation
Some variables in pcpu_hot, currently current_task and top_of_stack
are actually per-thread variables implemented as per-CPU variables
and thus stable for the duration of the respective task. There is
already an attempt to eliminate redundant reads from these variables
using this_cpu_read_stable() asm macro, which hides the dependency
on the read memory address. However, the compiler has limited ability
to eliminate asm common subexpressions, so this approach results in a
limited success.
The solution is to allow more aggressive elimination by aliasing
pcpu_hot into a const-qualified const_pcpu_hot, and to read stable
per-CPU variables from this constant copy.
The current per-CPU infrastructure does not support reads from
const-qualified variables. However, when the compiler supports segment
qualifiers, it is possible to declare the const-aliased variable in
the relevant named address space. The compiler considers access to the
variable, declared in this way, as a read from a constant location,
and will optimize reads from the variable accordingly.
By implementing constant-qualified const_pcpu_hot, the compiler can
eliminate redundant reads from the constant variables, reducing the
number of loads from current_task from 3766 to 3217 on a test build,
a -14.6% reduction.
The reduction of loads translates to the following code savings:

representing a code size reduction of -1279 bytes.

Introduce x86_64 %rip-relative addressing to the PER_CPU_VAR() macro.
Instructions using %rip-relative address operand are one byte shorter
than their absolute address counterparts and are also compatible with
position independent executable (-fpie) builds. The patch reduces
code size of a test kernel build by 150 bytes.
The PER_CPU_VAR() macro is intended to be applied to a symbol and should
not be used with register operands. Introduce the new __percpu macro and
use it in cmpxchg{8,16}b_emu.S instead.
Also add a missing function comment to this_cpu_cmpxchg8b_emu().

The "P" asm operand modifier is a x86 target-specific modifier.
When used for a constant, it drops all syntax-specific prefixes and
issues the bare constant. This modifier is not correct for address
handling, in this case a generic "a" operand modifier should be used.
The "a" asm operand modifier substitutes a memory reference, with the
actual operand treated as address. For x86_64, when a symbol is
provided, the "a" modifier emits "sym(%rip)" instead of "sym",
enabling shorter %rip-relative addressing.
Clang allows only "i" and "r" operand constraints with an "a" modifier,
so the patch normalizes the modifier/constraint pair to "a"/"i"
which is consistent between both compilers.
The patch reduces code size of a test build by 4072 bytes:

Implement arch_raw_cpu_ptr() in C to allow the compiler to perform
better optimizations, such as setting an appropriate base to compute
the address. The compiler is free to choose either MOV or ADD from
this_cpu_off address to construct the optimal final address.
There are some other issues when memory access to the percpu area is
implemented with an asm. Compilers can not eliminate asm common
subexpressions over basic block boundaries, but are extremely good
at optimizing memory access. By implementing arch_raw_cpu_ptr() in C,
the compiler can eliminate additional redundant loads from this_cpu_off,
further reducing the number of percpu offset reads from 1646 to 1631
on a test build, a -0.9% reduction.

The percpu code mostly uses inline assembly. Using segment qualifiers
allows to use C code instead, which enables the compiler to perform
various optimizations (e.g. propagation of memory arguments). Convert
percpu read and write accessors to C code, so the memory argument can
be propagated to the instruction that uses this argument.
Some examples of propagations:
a) into sign/zero extensions:
the code improves from:
65 8a 05 00 00 00 00 mov %gs:0x0(%rip),%al
0f b6 c0 movzbl %al,%eax
to:
65 0f b6 05 00 00 00 movzbl %gs:0x0(%rip),%eax
00
and in a similar way for:
movzbl %gs:0x0(%rip),%edx
movzwl %gs:0x0(%rip),%esi
movzbl %gs:0x78(%rbx),%eax
movslq %gs:0x0(%rip),%rdx
movslq %gs:(%rdi),%rbx
b) into compares:
the code improves from:
65 8b 05 00 00 00 00 mov %gs:0x0(%rip),%eax
a9 00 00 0f 00 test $0xf0000,%eax
to:
65 f7 05 00 00 00 00 testl $0xf0000,%gs:0x0(%rip)
00 00 0f 00
and in a similar way for:
testl $0xf0000,%gs:0x0(%rip)
testb $0x1,%gs:0x0(%rip)
testl $0xff00,%gs:0x0(%rip)
cmpb $0x0,%gs:0x0(%rip)
cmp %gs:0x0(%rip),%r14d
cmpw $0x8,%gs:0x0(%rip)
cmpb $0x0,%gs:(%rax)
c) into other insns:
the code improves from:
1a355: 83 fa ff cmp $0xffffffff,%edx
1a358: 75 07 jne 1a361 <...>
1a35a: 65 8b 15 00 00 00 00 mov %gs:0x0(%rip),%edx

1a35d: 65 0f 44 15 00 00 00 cmove %gs:0x0(%rip),%edx

Using a segment prefix qualifier is cleaner than using a segment prefix
in the inline assembly, and provides the compiler with more information,
telling it that __seg_gs:[addr] is different than [addr] when it
analyzes data dependencies. It also enables various optimizations that
will be implemented in the next patches.
Use segment prefix qualifiers when they are supported. Unfortunately,
gcc does not provide a way to remove segment qualifiers, which is needed
to use typeof() to create local instances of the per-CPU variable. For
this reason, do not use the segment qualifier for per-CPU variables, and
do casting using the segment qualifier instead.
Uros: Improve compiler support detection and update the patch
to the current mainline.

The fallback alternative uses %rsi register to manually load pointer
to the percpu variable before the call to the emulation function.
This is unoptimal, because the load is hidden from the compiler.
Move the load of %rsi outside inline asm, so the compiler can
reuse the value. The code in slub.o improves from:
55ac: 49 8b 3c 24 mov (%r12),%rdi
55b0: 48 8d 4a 40 lea 0x40(%rdx),%rcx
55b4: 49 8b 1c 07 mov (%r15,%rax,1),%rbx
55b8: 4c 89 f8 mov %r15,%rax
55bb: 48 8d 37 lea (%rdi),%rsi
55be: e8 00 00 00 00 callq 55c3 <...>
55bf: R_X86_64_PLT32 this_cpu_cmpxchg16b_emu-0x4
55c3: 75 a3 jne 5568 <...>
55c5: ...
0000000000000000 <.altinstr_replacement>:
5: 65 48 0f c7 0f cmpxchg16b %gs:(%rdi)
to:
55ac: 49 8b 34 24 mov (%r12),%rsi
55b0: 48 8d 4a 40 lea 0x40(%rdx),%rcx
55b4: 49 8b 1c 07 mov (%r15,%rax,1),%rbx
55b8: 4c 89 f8 mov %r15,%rax
55bb: e8 00 00 00 00 callq 55c0 <...>
55bc: R_X86_64_PLT32 this_cpu_cmpxchg16b_emu-0x4
55c0: 75 a6 jne 5568 <...>
55c2: ...
Where the alternative replacement instruction now uses %rsi:
0000000000000000 <.altinstr_replacement>:
5: 65 48 0f c7 0e cmpxchg16b %gs:(%rsi)
The instruction (effectively a reg-reg move) at 55bb: in the original
assembly is removed. Also, both the CALL and replacement CMPXCHG16B
are 5 bytes long, removing the need for NOPs in the asm code.

53d9: 48 09 c7 or %rax,%rdi
53dc: 75 ae jne 538c <...>
