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"

Patch series "selftests/mm: reuse FORCE_READ to replace "asm volatile("" :
"+r" (XXX));" and some cleanup", v2.
This series introduces a common FORCE_READ() macro to replace the cryptic
asm volatile("" : "+r" (variable)); construct used in several mm
selftests. This improves code readability and maintainability by removing
duplicated, hard-to-understand code.
This patch (of 2):
Several mm selftests use the `asm volatile("" : "+r" (variable));`
construct to force a read of a variable, preventing the compiler from
optimizing away the memory access. This idiom is cryptic and duplicated
across multiple test files.
Following a suggestion from David[1], this patch refactors this common
pattern into a FORCE_READ() macro

create_pagecache_thp_and_fd() was previously writing a file sized at twice
the PMD size by making a per-byte write syscall. This was quite slow when
the PMD size is 4M, but completely intolerable for 32M (PMD size for
arm64's 16K page size), and 512M (PMD size for arm64's 64K page size).
The byte pattern has a 256 byte period, so let's create a 1K buffer and
fill it with exactly 4 periods. Then we can write the buffer as many
times as is required to fill the file. This makes things much more
tolerable.
The test now passes for 16K page size. It still fails for 64K page size
because MAX_PAGECACHE_ORDER is too small for 512M folio size (I think).

The test now reads file content out after split to check if the split

split_huge_page_test does not write PMD size data, so file-back THP is not

When a THP is split, any subpage that is zero-filled will be mapped to the
shared zeropage, hence saving memory. Add selftest to verify this by
allocating zero-filled THP and comparing RssAnon before and after split.

create_pagecache_thp_and_fd() in split_huge_page_test.c used the variable
dummy to perform mmap read.
However, this test was skipped even on XFS which has large folio support.
The issue was compiler (gcc 13.2.0) was optimizing out the dummy variable,
therefore, not creating huge page in the page cache.
Use asm volatile() trick to force the compiler not to optimize out the
loop where we read from the mmaped addr. This is similar to what is being
done in other tests (cow.c, etc)
As the variable is now used in the asm statement, remove the unused
attribute.

Add missing flags argument to open(2) call with O_CREAT.
Some tests fail to compile if _FORTIFY_SOURCE is defined (to any valid
value) (together with -O), resulting in similar error messages such as:
In file included from /usr/include/fcntl.h:342,
from gup_test.c:1:
In function 'open',
inlined from 'main' at gup_test.c:206:10:

50 | __open_missing_mode ();
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
_FORTIFY_SOURCE is enabled by default in some distributions, so the
tests are not built by default and are skipped.
open(2) man-page warns about missing flags argument: "if it is not
supplied, some arbitrary bytes from the stack will be applied as the
file mode."

Patch series "mm: (pte|pmd)_mkdirty() should not unconditionally allow for
write access".
This is the follow-up on [1], adding selftests (testing for known issues
we added workarounds for and other issues that haven't been fixed yet),
fixing sparc64, reverting the workarounds, and perform one cleanup.
The patch from [1] was modified slightly (updated/extended patch
description, dropped one unnecessary NOP instruction from the ASM in
__pte_mkhwwrite()).
Retested on x86_64 and sparc64 (sun4u in QEMU).
I scanned most architectures to make sure their (pte|pmd)_mkdirty()
handling is correct. To be sure, we can run the selftests and find out if
other architectures are still affectes (loongarch was fixed recently as
well).
Based on master for now. I don't expect surprises regarding mm-tress, but
I can rebase if there are any problems.
This patch (of 6):
The COW selftest can deal with THP not being configured. So move error
handling of read_pmd_pagesize() into the callers such that we can reuse it
in the COW selftest.
