The kernel invalidates the page cache in batches of PAGEVEC_SIZE. For
each batch, it traverses the page cache tree and collects the entries
(folio and shadow entries) in the struct folio_batch. For the shadow
entries present in the folio_batch, it has to traverse the page cache tree
for each individual entry to remove them. This patch optimize this by
removing them in a single tree traversal.
To evaluate the changes, we created 200GiB file on a fuse fs and in a
memcg. We created the shadow entries by triggering reclaim through
memory.reclaim in that specific memcg and measure the simple
fadvise(DONTNEED) operation.

Patch series "mm: optimize shadow entries removal", v2.
Some of our production workloads which processes a large amount of data
spends considerable amount of CPUs on truncation and invalidation of large
sized files (100s of GiBs of size). Tracing the operations showed that
most of the time is in shadow entries removal. This patch series
optimizes the truncation and invalidation operations.
This patch (of 2):
The kernel truncates the page cache in batches of PAGEVEC_SIZE. For each

On large machines in our production which run workloads manipulating large
amount of data, we have observed that a large amount of CPUs are spent on
truncation of very large files (100s of GiBs file sizes). More
specifically most of time was spent on shadow entries cleanup, so
optimizing the shadow entries cleanup, even a little bit, has good impact.

As the name suggests, pte_offset_map_ro_nolock() is used for read-only
case. In this case, only read-only operations will be performed on PTE
page after the PTL is held. The RCU lock in pte_offset_map_nolock() will
ensure that the PTE page will not be freed, and there is no need to worry
about whether the pmd entry is modified. Therefore
pte_offset_map_ro_nolock() is just a renamed version of
pte_offset_map_nolock().
pte_offset_map_rw_nolock() is used for may-write case. In this case, the
pte or pmd entry may be modified after the PTL is held, so we need to
ensure that the pmd entry has not been modified concurrently. So in
addition to the name change, it also outputs the pmdval when successful.
The users should make sure the page table is stable like checking
pte_same() or checking pmd_same() by using the output pmdval before
performing the write operations.
This series will convert all pte_offset_map_nolock() into the above two
helper functions one by one, and finally completely delete it.
This also a preparation for reclaiming the empty user PTE page table
pages.
This patch (of 13):
Currently, the usage of pte_offset_map_nolock() can be divided into the
following two cases:
1) After acquiring PTL, only read-only operations are performed on the PTE
page. In this case, the RCU lock in pte_offset_map_nolock() will ensure
that the PTE page will not be freed, and there is no need to worry
about whether the pmd entry is modified.
2) After acquiring PTL, the pte or pmd entries may be modified. At this
time, we need to ensure that the pmd entry has not been modified
concurrently.
To more clearing distinguish between these two cases, this commit
introduces two new helper functions to replace pte_offset_map_nolock().
For 1), just rename it to pte_offset_map_ro_nolock(). For 2), in addition
to changing the name to pte_offset_map_rw_nolock(), it also outputs the
pmdval when successful. It is applicable for may-write cases where any
modification operations to the page table may happen after the
corresponding spinlock is held afterwards. But the users should make sure
the page table is stable like checking pte_same() or checking pmd_same()
by using the output pmdval before performing the write operations.
Note: "RO" / "RW" expresses the intended semantics, not that the *kmap*
will be read-only/read-write protected.
Subsequent commits will convert pte_offset_map_nolock() into the above
two functions one by one, and finally completely delete it.

mm/madvise: unrestrict process_madvise() for current process
The process_madvise() call was introduced in commit ecb8ac8b1f14
("mm/madvise: introduce process_madvise() syscall: an external memory
hinting API") as a means of performing madvise() operations on another
process.
However, as it provides the means by which to perform multiple madvise()
operations in a batch via an iovec, it is useful to utilise the same
interface for performing operations on the current process rather than a
remote one.
Commit 22af8caff7d1 ("mm/madvise: process_madvise() drop capability check
if same mm") removed the need for a caller invoking process_madvise() on
its own pidfd to possess the CAP_SYS_NICE capability, however this leaves
the restrictions on operation in place.
Resolve this by only applying the restriction on operations when accessing
a remote process.
Moving forward we plan to implement a simpler means of specifying this
condition other than needing to establish a self pidfd, perhaps in the
form of a sentinel pidfd.
Also take the opportunity to refactor the system call implementation
abstracting the vectorised operation.

selftests/mm: hugetlb_fault_after_madv: use default hugetlb page size
Patch series "selftests/mm: hugetlb_fault_after_madv improvements".
Mario brought to my attention that the hugetlb_fault_after_madv test is
currently always skipped on s390x. Let's adjust the test to be
independent of the default hugetlb page size and while at it, also improve
the test output.
This patch (of 2):
We currently assume that the hugetlb page size is 2 MiB, which is why we
mmap() a 2 MiB range.
Is the default hugetlb size is larger, mmap() will fail because the range
is not suitable. If the default hugetlb size is smaller (e.g., s390x),
mmap() will fail because we would need more than one hugetlb page, but
just asserted that we have exactly one.
So let's simply use the default hugetlb page size instead of hard-coded 2
MiB, so the test isn't unconditionally skipped on architectures like
s390x.
Before this patch on s390x:
$ ./hugetlb_fault_after_madv

mm/list_lru: split the lock to per-cgroup scope
Currently, every list_lru has a per-node lock that protects adding,
deletion, isolation, and reparenting of all list_lru_one instances
belonging to this list_lru on this node. This lock contention is heavy
when multiple cgroups modify the same list_lru.
This lock can be split into per-cgroup scope to reduce contention.
To achieve this, we need a stable list_lru_one for every cgroup. This
commit adds a lock to each list_lru_one and introduced a helper function
lock_list_lru_of_memcg, making it possible to pin the list_lru of a memcg.
Then reworked the reparenting process.
Reparenting will switch the list_lru_one instances one by one. By locking
each instance and marking it dead using the nr_items counter, reparenting
ensures that all items in the corresponding cgroup (on-list or not,
because items have a stable cgroup, see below) will see the list_lru_one
switch synchronously.
Objcg reparent is also moved after list_lru reparent so items will have a
stable mem cgroup until all list_lru_one instances are drained.
The only caller that doesn't work the *_obj interfaces are direct calls to
list_lru_{add,del}. But it's only used by zswap and that's also based on
objcg, so it's fine.
This also changes the bahaviour of the isolation function when LRU_RETRY
or LRU_REMOVED_RETRY is returned, because now releasing the lock could
unblock reparenting and free the list_lru_one, isolation function will
have to return withoug re-lock the lru.

mm/list_lru: simplify reparenting and initial allocation
Currently, there is a lot of code for detecting reparent racing using
kmemcg_id as the synchronization flag. And an intermediate table is
required to record and compare the kmemcg_id.
We can simplify this by just checking the cgroup css status, skip if
cgroup is being offlined. On the reparenting side, ensure no more
allocation is on going and no further allocation will occur by using the
XArray lock as barrier.
Combined with a O(n^2) top-down walk for the allocation, we get rid of the
intermediate table allocation completely. Despite being O(n^2), it should
be actually faster because it's not practical to have a very deep cgroup
level, and in most cases the parent cgroup should have been allocated
already.
This also avoided changing kmemcg_id before reparenting, making cgroups
have a stable index for list_lru_memcg. After this change it's possible
that a dying cgroup will see a NULL value in XArray corresponding to the
kmemcg_id, because the kmemcg_id will point to an empty slot. In such
case, just fallback to use its parent.
As a result the code is simpler, following test also showed a very slight
performance gain (12 test runs):

Patch series "Split list_lru lock into per-cgroup scope", v2.
Currently, every list_lru has a per-node lock that protects adding,
deletion, isolation, and reparenting of all list_lru_one instances
belonging to this list_lru on this node. This lock contention is heavy
when multiple cgroups modify the same list_lru.
This can be alleviated by splitting the lock into per-cgroup scope.
To achieve this, this series reworked and optimized the reparenting
process step by step, making it possible to have a stable list_lru_one,
and making it possible to pin the list_lru_one. Then split the lock into
per-cgroup scope.
The result is ~15% performance gain for simple multi-cgroup tar test of
small files, and reduced LOC. See PATCH 5/6 for test details.
This patch (of 6):
When LOCKDEP is not enabled, lock_class_key is an empty struct that is
never used. But the list_lru initialization function still takes a
placeholder pointer as parameter, and the compiler cannot optimize it
because the function is not static and exported.
Remove this parameter and move it inside the list_lru struct. Only use it
when LOCKDEP is enabled. Kernel builds with LOCKDEP will be slightly
larger, while !LOCKDEP builds without it will be slightly smaller (the
common case).

In mast_fill_bnode(), we first clear some fields of maple_big_node and set

In maple_big_node, we define slot and padding/gap in a union. And based
on current definition of MAPLE_BIG_NODE_SLOTS/GAPS, padding is always less
than slot and part of the gap is overlapped by slot.

MAPLE_BIG_NODE_SLOT is 34

maple_tree: goto complete directly on a pivot of 0
When we break the loop after assigning a pivot, the index i/j is not
changed. Then the following code assign pivot, which means we do the
assignment with same i/j by mas_safe_pivot.
Since the loop condition is (i < piv_end), from which we can get i is less
than mt_pivots[mt]. It implies mas_safe_pivot() return pivot[i] which is
the same value we get in loop.
Now we can conclude it does a redundant assignment on a pivot of 0. Let's
just go to complete to avoid it.
We can see in all these four cases, i is always less than or equal to
mas_end after finish the loop:
Case 1: After assign pivot 0, i is set to 1, which is bigger than
mas_end 0. So it jumps to complete and skip the check.
Case 2: After assign pivot 0, i is set to 1.
∵ (mas_start < mas_end) && (mas_start == 0)
==> (1 <= mas_end)
∵ (i == 1) && (1 <= mas_end)
==> (i <= mas_end)
∴ Before loop, we have (i <= mas_end). And we still hold this
if it skips the loop. For example, (i == mas_end).
Now let's see what happens in the loop:
∵ piv_end = min(mas_end, mt_pivots[mt])
==> (piv_end <= mas_end)
∵ loop condition is (i < piv_end)
==> (i <= piv_end) on finish the loop both normally or break
∵ (i <= piv_end) && (piv_end <= mas_end)
==> (i <= mas_end)
∴ After loop, we still get (i <= mas_end) in this case
Case 3: This case would skip both if clause and loop. So when it comes
to the check, i is still mas_start which equals to mas_end.
Case 4: This case would skip the if clause.
∵ (mas_start < mas_end) && (i == mas_start)
==> (i < mas_end)
∴ Before loop, we have (i < mas_end).
The loop process is similar with Case 2, so we get the same
result.
Now we can conclude in all cases, we get (i <= mas_end) when doing
check. Then it is not necessary to do the check.

mm: refactor mm_access() to not return NULL
mm_access() can return NULL if the mm is not found, but this is handled
the same as an error in all callers, with some translating this into an
-ESRCH error.
Only proc_mem_open() returns NULL if no mm is found, however in this case
it is clearer and makes more sense to explicitly handle the error.
Additionally we take the opportunity to refactor the function to eliminate
unnecessary nesting.
Simplify things by simply returning -ESRCH if no mm is found - this both
eliminates confusing use of the IS_ERR_OR_NULL() macro, and simplifies
callers which would return -ESRCH by returning this error directly.
We now have only one active post-processing at any time, so we don't have
same race conditions that we had before. If slot selected for
post-processing gets freed or freed and reallocated it loses its PP_SLOT
flag and there is no way for such a slot to gain PP_SLOT flag again until
current post-processing terminates.
ZRAM_SAME slots cannot be post-processed (writeback or recompress) so do
not mark them ZRAM_IDLE. Same with ZRAM_WB slots, they cannot be
ZRAM_IDLE because they are not in zsmalloc pool anymore.
Writeback suffers from the same problem as recompression did before -
target slot selection for writeback is just a simple iteration over
zram->table entries (stored pages) which selects suboptimal targets for
writeback. This is especially problematic for writeback, because we
uncompress objects before writeback so each of them takes 4K out of
limited writeback storage. For example, when we take a 48 bytes slot and
store it as a 4K object to writeback device we only save 48 bytes of
memory (release from zsmalloc pool). We naturally want to pick the
largest objects for writeback, because then each writeback will release
the largest amount of memory.
This patch applies the same solution and strategy as for recompression
target selection: pp control (post-process) with 16 buckets of candidate
pp slots. Slots are assigned to pp buckets based on sizes - the larger
the slot the higher the group index. This gives us sorted by size lists
of candidate slots (in linear time), so that among post-processing
candidate slots we always select the largest ones first and maximize the
memory saving.
TEST
====
A very simple demonstration: zram is configured with a writeback device.
A limited writeback (wb_limit 2500 pages) is performed then, with a log of
sizes of slots that were written back. You can see that patched zram
selects slots for recompression in significantly different manner, which
leads to higher memory savings (see column #2 of mm_stat output).
Target slot selection for recompression is just a simple iteration over
zram->table entries (stored pages) from slot 0 to max slot. Given that
zram->table slots are written in random order and are not sorted by size,
a simple iteration over slots selects suboptimal targets for
recompression. This is not a problem if we recompress every single
zram->table slot, but we never do that in reality. In reality we limit
the number of slots we can recompress (via max_pages parameter) and hence
proper slot selection becomes very important. The strategy is quite
simple, suppose we have two candidate slots for recompression, one of size
48 bytes and one of size 2800 bytes, and we can recompress only one, then
it certainly makes more sense to pick 2800 entry for recompression.
Because even if we manage to compress 48 bytes objects even further the
savings are going to be very small. Potential savings after good
re-compression of 2800 bytes objects are much higher.
This patch reworks slot selection and introduces the strategy described
above: among candidate slots always select the biggest ones first.
For that the patch introduces zram_pp_ctl (post-processing) structure
which holds NUM_PP_BUCKETS pp buckets of slots. Slots are assigned to a
particular group based on their sizes - the larger the size of the slot
the higher the group index. This, basically, sorts slots by size in liner
time (we still perform just one iteration over zram->table slots). When
we select slot for recompression we always first lookup in higher pp
buckets (those that hold the largest slots). Which achieves the desired
behavior.
TEST
====
A very simple demonstration: zram is configured with zstd, and zstd with
dict as a recompression stream. A limited (max 4096 pages) recompression
is performed then, with a log of sizes of slots that were recompressed.
You can see that patched zram selects slots for recompression in
significantly different manner, which leads to higher memory savings (see
column #2 of mm_stat output).
zram: permit only one post-processing operation at a time
Both recompress and writeback soon will unlock slots during processing,
which makes things too complex wrt possible race-conditions. We still
want to clear PP_SLOT in slot_free, because this is how we figure out that
slot that was selected for post-processing has been released under us and
when we start post-processing we check if slot still has PP_SLOT set. At
the same time, theoretically, we can have something like this:
CPU0 CPU1
recompress
scan slots
set PP_SLOT
unlock slot
slot_free
clear PP_SLOT
allocate PP_SLOT
writeback
scan slots
set PP_SLOT
unlock slot
select PP-slot
test PP_SLOT
So recompress will not detect that slot has been re-used and re-selected
for concurrent writeback post-processing.
Make sure that we only permit on post-processing operation at a time. So
now recompress and writeback post-processing don't race against each
other, we only need to handle slot re-use (slot_free and write), which is
handled individually by each pp operation.
Having recompress and writeback competing for the same slots is not
exactly good anyway (can't imagine anyone doing that).
Patch series "zram: optimal post-processing target selection", v5.
Problem:
--------
Both recompression and writeback perform a very simple linear scan of all
zram slots in search for post-processing (writeback or recompress)
candidate slots. This often means that we pick the worst candidate for pp
(post-processing), e.g. a 48 bytes object for writeback, which is nearly
useless, because it only releases 48 bytes from zsmalloc pool, but
consumes an entire 4K slot in the backing device. Similarly,
recompression of an 48 bytes objects is unlikely to save more memory that
recompression of a 3000 bytes object. Both recompression and writeback
consume constrained resources (CPU time, batter, backing device storage
space) and quite often have a (daily) limit on the number of items they
post-process, so we should utilize those constrained resources in the most
optimal way.
Solution:
---------
This patch reworks the way we select pp targets. We, quite clearly, want
to sort all the candidates and always pick the largest, be it
recompression or writeback. Especially for writeback, because the larger
object we writeback the more memory we release. This series introduces
concept of pp buckets and pp scan/selection.
The scan step is a simple iteration over all zram->table entries, just
like what we currently do, but we don't post-process a candidate slot
immediately. Instead we assign it to a PP (post-processing) bucket. PP
bucket is, basically, a list which holds pp candidate slots that belong to
the same size class. PP buckets are 64 bytes apart, slots are not
strictly sorted within a bucket there is a 64 bytes variance.
The select step simply iterates over pp buckets from highest to lowest and
picks all candidate slots a particular buckets contains. So this gives us
sorted candidates (in linear time) and allows us to select most optimal
(largest) candidates for post-processing first.
This patch (of 7):
This flag indicates that the slot was selected as a candidate slot for
post-processing (pp) and was assigned to a pp bucket. It does not
necessarily mean that the slot is currently under post-processing, but may
mean so. The slot can loose its PP_SLOT flag, while still being in the
pp-bucket, if it's accessed or slot_free-ed.

mm/vmalloc: combine all TLB flush operations of KASAN shadow virtual address into one operation
When compiling kernel source 'make -j $(nproc)' with the up-and-running
KASAN-enabled kernel on a 256-core machine, the following soft lockup is
shown:
1. The following ftrace log shows that the lockup CPU spends too much
time iterating vmap_nodes and flushing TLB when purging vm_area
structures. (Some info is trimmed).
The drain_vmap_area_work() spends over 23 seconds.
There are 2805 flush_tlb_kernel_range() calls in the ftrace log.
* One is called in __purge_vmap_area_lazy().
* Others are called by purge_vmap_node->kasan_release_vmalloc.
purge_vmap_node() iteratively releases kasan vmalloc
allocations and flushes TLB for each vmap_area.
- [Rough calculation] Each flush_tlb_kernel_range() runs
about 7.5ms.
-- 2804 * 7.5ms = 21.03 seconds.
-- That's why a soft lock is triggered.
2. Extending the soft lockup time can work around the issue (For example,
# echo 60 > /proc/sys/kernel/watchdog_thresh). This confirms the
above-mentioned speculation: drain_vmap_area_work() spends too much
time.
If we combine all TLB flush operations of the KASAN shadow virtual
address into one operation in the call path
'purge_vmap_node()->kasan_release_vmalloc()', the running time of
drain_vmap_area_work() can be saved greatly. The idea is from the
flush_tlb_kernel_range() call in __purge_vmap_area_lazy(). And, the
soft lockup won't be triggered.

mm/damon/core: handle zero schemes apply interval

If Schemes apply interval is set as zero, however, next_apply_sis is set

passed_sample_intervals is incremented before doing the next_apply_sis

In other words, DAMON stops applying schemes until passed_sample_intervals

mm/damon/core: handle zero {aggregation,ops_update} intervals
Patch series "mm/damon/core: fix handling of zero non-sampling intervals".
DAMON's internal intervals accounting logic is not correctly handling
non-sampling intervals of zero values for a wrong assumption. This could
cause unexpected monitoring behavior, and even result in infinite hang of
DAMON sysfs interface user threads in case of zero aggregation interval.
Fix those by updating the intervals accounting logic. For details of the
root case and solutions, please refer to commit messages of fixes.
This patch (of 2):
DAMON's logics to determine if this is the time to do aggregation and ops
update assumes next_{aggregation,ops_update}_sis are always set larger
than current passed_sample_intervals. And therefore it further assumes
continuously incrementing passed_sample_intervals every sampling interval
will make it reaches to the next_{aggregation,ops_update}_sis in future.
The logic therefore make the action and update
next_{aggregation,ops_updaste}_sis only if passed_sample_intervals is same
to the counts, respectively.
If Aggregation interval or Ops update interval are zero, however,
next_aggregation_sis or next_ops_update_sis are set same to current
passed_sample_intervals, respectively. And passed_sample_intervals is
incremented before doing the next_{aggregation,ops_update}_sis check.
Hence, passed_sample_intervals becomes larger than
next_{aggregation,ops_update}_sis, and the logic says it is not the time
to do the action and update next_{aggregation,ops_update}_sis forever,
until an overflow happens. In other words, DAMON stops doing aggregations
or ops updates effectively forever, and users cannot get monitoring
results.
Based on the documents and the common sense, a reasonable behavior for
such inputs is doing an aggregation and an ops update for every sampling
interval. Handle the case by removing the assumption.
Note that this could incur particular real issue for DAMON sysfs interface
users, in case of zero Aggregation interval. When user starts DAMON with
zero Aggregation interval and asks online DAMON parameter tuning via DAMON
sysfs interface, the request is handled by the aggregation callback.
Until the callback finishes the work, the user who requested the online
tuning just waits. Hence, the user will be stuck until the
passed_sample_intervals overflows.

combining the __vmalloc_node() and kmalloc_node() is that the vmalloc does

The mmap_region() function is somewhat terrifying, with spaghetti-like
control flow and numerous means by which issues can arise and incomplete
state, memory leaks and other unpleasantness can occur.
A large amount of the complexity arises from trying to handle errors late
in the process of mapping a VMA, which forms the basis of recently
observed issues with resource leaks and observable inconsistent state.
Taking advantage of previous patches in this series we move a number of
checks earlier in the code, simplifying things by moving the core of the
logic into a static internal function __mmap_region().
Doing this allows us to perform a number of checks up front before we do
any real work, and allows us to unwind the writable unmap check
unconditionally as required and to perform a CONFIG_DEBUG_VM_MAPLE_TREE
validation unconditionally also.
We move a number of things here:
1. We preallocate memory for the iterator before we call the file-backed
memory hook, allowing us to exit early and avoid having to perform
complicated and error-prone close/free logic. We carefully free
iterator state on both success and error paths.
2. The enclosing mmap_region() function handles the mapping_map_writable()
logic early. Previously the logic had the mapping_map_writable() at the
point of mapping a newly allocated file-backed VMA, and a matching
mapping_unmap_writable() on success and error paths.
We now do this unconditionally if this is a file-backed, shared writable
mapping. If a driver changes the flags to eliminate VM_MAYWRITE, however
doing so does not invalidate the seal check we just performed, and we in
any case always decrement the counter in the wrapper.
We perform a debug assert to ensure a driver does not attempt to do the
opposite.
3. We also move arch_validate_flags() up into the mmap_region()
function. This is only relevant on arm64 and sparc64, and the check is
only meaningful for SPARC with ADI enabled. We explicitly add a warning
for this arch if a driver invalidates this check, though the code ought
eventually to be fixed to eliminate the need for this.
With all of these measures in place, we no longer need to explicitly close
the VMA on error paths, as we place all checks which might fail prior to a
call to any driver mmap hook.
This eliminates an entire class of errors, makes the code easier to reason
about and more robust.

mm: refactor arch_calc_vm_flag_bits() and arm64 MTE handling
Currently MTE is permitted in two circumstances (desiring to use MTE
having been specified by the VM_MTE flag) - where MAP_ANONYMOUS is
specified, as checked by arch_calc_vm_flag_bits() and actualised by
setting the VM_MTE_ALLOWED flag, or if the file backing the mapping is
shmem, in which case we set VM_MTE_ALLOWED in shmem_mmap() when the mmap
hook is activated in mmap_region().
The function that checks that, if VM_MTE is set, VM_MTE_ALLOWED is also
set is the arm64 implementation of arch_validate_flags().
Unfortunately, we intend to refactor mmap_region() to perform this check
earlier, meaning that in the case of a shmem backing we will not have
invoked shmem_mmap() yet, causing the mapping to fail spuriously.
It is inappropriate to set this architecture-specific flag in general mm
code anyway, so a sensible resolution of this issue is to instead move the
check somewhere else.
We resolve this by setting VM_MTE_ALLOWED much earlier in do_mmap(), via
the arch_calc_vm_flag_bits() call.
This is an appropriate place to do this as we already check for the
MAP_ANONYMOUS case here, and the shmem file case is simply a variant of
the same idea - we permit RAM-backed memory.
This requires a modification to the arch_calc_vm_flag_bits() signature to
pass in a pointer to the struct file associated with the mapping, however
this is not too egregious as this is only used by two architectures anyway
- arm64 and parisc.
So this patch performs this adjustment and removes the unnecessary
assignment of VM_MTE_ALLOWED in shmem_mmap().

Incorrect invocation of VMA callbacks when the VMA is no longer in a
consistent state is bug prone and risky to perform.
With regards to the important vm_ops->close() callback We have gone to
great lengths to try to track whether or not we ought to close VMAs.
Rather than doing so and risking making a mistake somewhere, instead
unconditionally close and reset vma->vm_ops to an empty dummy operations
set with a NULL .close operator.
We introduce a new function to do so - vma_close() - and simplify existing
vms logic which tracked whether we needed to close or not.
This simplifies the logic, avoids incorrect double-calling of the .close()
callback and allows us to update error paths to simply call vma_close()

This patch (of 5):
After an attempted mmap() fails, we are no longer in a situation where we
can safely interact with VMA hooks. This is currently not enforced,
meaning that we need complicated handling to ensure we do not incorrectly
call these hooks.
We can avoid the whole issue by treating the VMA as suspect the moment
that the file->f_ops->mmap() function reports an error by replacing
whatever VMA operations were installed with a dummy empty set of VMA
operations.
We do so through a new helper function internal to mm - mmap_file() -
which is both more logically named than the existing call_mmap() function
and correctly isolates handling of the vm_op reassignment to mm.
All the existing invocations of call_mmap() outside of mm are ultimately
nested within the call_mmap() from mm, which we now replace.
It is therefore safe to leave call_mmap() in place as a convenience
function (and to avoid churn). The invokers are:

mm/thp: fix deferred split unqueue naming and locking
Recent changes are putting more pressure on THP deferred split queues:
under load revealing long-standing races, causing list_del corruptions,
"Bad page state"s and worse (I keep BUGs in both of those, so usually
don't get to see how badly they end up without). The relevant recent
changes being 6.8's mTHP, 6.10's mTHP swapout, and 6.12's mTHP swapin,
improved swap allocation, and underused THP splitting.
Before fixing locking: rename misleading folio_undo_large_rmappable(),
which does not undo large_rmappable, to folio_unqueue_deferred_split(),
which is what it does. But that and its out-of-line __callee are mm
internals of very limited usability: add comment and WARN_ON_ONCEs to
check usage; and return a bool to say if a deferred split was unqueued,
which can then be used in WARN_ON_ONCEs around safety checks (sparing
callers the arcane conditionals in __folio_unqueue_deferred_split()).
Just omit the folio_unqueue_deferred_split() from free_unref_folios(), all
of whose callers now call it beforehand (and if any forget then bad_page()
will tell) - except for its caller put_pages_list(), which itself no
longer has any callers (and will be deleted separately).
Swapout: mem_cgroup_swapout() has been resetting folio->memcg_data 0
without checking and unqueueing a THP folio from deferred split list;
which is unfortunate, since the split_queue_lock depends on the memcg
(when memcg is enabled); so swapout has been unqueueing such THPs later,
when freeing the folio, using the pgdat's lock instead: potentially
corrupting the memcg's list. __remove_mapping() has frozen refcount to 0
here, so no problem with calling folio_unqueue_deferred_split() before
resetting memcg_data.
That goes back to 5.4 commit 87eaceb3faa5 ("mm: thp: make deferred split
shrinker memcg aware"): which included a check on swapcache before adding
to deferred queue, but no check on deferred queue before adding THP to
swapcache. That worked fine with the usual sequence of events in reclaim
(though there were a couple of rare ways in which a THP on deferred queue
could have been swapped out), but 6.12 commit dafff3f4c850 ("mm: split
underused THPs") avoids splitting underused THPs in reclaim, which makes
swapcache THPs on deferred queue commonplace.
Keep the check on swapcache before adding to deferred queue? Yes: it is
no longer essential, but preserves the existing behaviour, and is likely
to be a worthwhile optimization (vmstat showed much more traffic on the
queue under swapping load if the check was removed); update its comment.
Memcg-v1 move (deprecated): mem_cgroup_move_account() has been changing
folio->memcg_data without checking and unqueueing a THP folio from the
deferred list, sometimes corrupting "from" memcg's list, like swapout.
Refcount is non-zero here, so folio_unqueue_deferred_split() can only be
used in a WARN_ON_ONCE to validate the fix, which must be done earlier:
mem_cgroup_move_charge_pte_range() first try to split the THP (splitting
of course unqueues), or skip it if that fails. Not ideal, but moving
charge has been requested, and khugepaged should repair the THP later:
nobody wants new custom unqueueing code just for this deprecated case.
The 87eaceb3faa5 commit did have the code to move from one deferred list
to another (but was not conscious of its unsafety while refcount non-0);
but that was removed by 5.6 commit fac0516b5534 ("mm: thp: don't need care
deferred split queue in memcg charge move path"), which argued that the
existence of a PMD mapping guarantees that the THP cannot be on a deferred
list. As above, false in rare cases, and now commonly false.
Backport to 6.11 should be straightforward. Earlier backports must take
care that other _deferred_list fixes and dependencies are included. There
is not a strong case for backports, but they can fix cornercases.

The new unlocked list_del_init() in deferred_split_scan() is buggy. I
gave bad advice, it looks plausible since that's a local on-stack list,
but the fact is that it can race with a third party freeing or migrating
the preceding folio (properly unqueueing it with refcount 0 while holding
split_queue_lock), thereby corrupting the list linkage.
The obvious answer would be to take split_queue_lock there: but it has a
long history of contention, so I'm reluctant to add to that. Instead,
make sure that there is always one safe (raised refcount) folio before, by
delaying its folio_put(). (And of course I was wrong to suggest updating
split_queue_len without the lock: leave that until the splice.)
And remove two over-eager partially_mapped checks, restoring those tests
to how they were before: if uncharge_folio() or free_tail_page_prepare()

The second line above shows that the OOM kill was due to the following
condition:
free (1482936kB) - reserved_highatomic (1073152kB) = 409784KB < min (410416kB)
And the third line shows there were no free pages in any
MIGRATE_HIGHATOMIC pageblocks, which otherwise would show up as type 'H'.
Therefore __zone_watermark_unusable_free() underestimated the usable free
memory by over 1GB, which resulted in the unnecessary OOM kill above.
The comments in __zone_watermark_unusable_free() warns about the potential
risk, i.e.,
If the caller does not have rights to reserves below the min
watermark then subtract the high-atomic reserves. This will
over-estimate the size of the atomic reserve but it avoids a search.
However, it is possible to keep track of free pages in reserved highatomic
pageblocks with a new per-zone counter nr_free_highatomic protected by the
zone lock, to avoid a search when calculating the usable free memory. And
the cost would be minimal, i.e., simple arithmetics in the highatomic
alloc/free/move paths.
Note that since nr_free_highatomic can be relatively small, using a
per-cpu counter might cause too much drift and defeat its purpose, in
addition to the extra memory overhead.

mm: multi-gen LRU: remove MM_LEAF_OLD and MM_NONLEAF_TOTAL stats
Patch series "mm: multi-gen LRU: Have secondary MMUs participate in
MM_WALK".
Today, the MM_WALK capability causes MGLRU to clear the young bit from
PMDs and PTEs during the page table walk before eviction, but MGLRU does
not call the clear_young() MMU notifier in this case. By not calling this
notifier, the MM walk takes less time/CPU, but it causes pages that are
accessed mostly through KVM / secondary MMUs to appear younger than they
should be.
We do call the clear_young() notifier today, but only when attempting to
evict the page, so we end up clearing young/accessed information less
frequently for secondary MMUs than for mm PTEs, and therefore they appear
younger and are less likely to be evicted. Therefore, memory that is
*not* being accessed mostly by KVM will be evicted *more* frequently,
worsening performance.
ChromeOS observed a tab-open latency regression when enabling MGLRU with a
setup that involved running a VM:
Tab-open latency histogram (ms)

This series replaces the final non-selftest patchs from this series[1],
which introduced a similar change (and a new MMU notifier) with KVM
optimizations. I'll send a separate series (to Sean and Paolo) for the
KVM optimizations.
This series also makes proactive reclaim with MGLRU possible for KVM

from [1], but given that that test is a KVM selftest, I'll send it with
the rest of the KVM optimizations later. Andrew, let me know if you'd
like to take the test now anyway.
The removed stats, MM_LEAF_OLD and MM_NONLEAF_TOTAL, are not very helpful

mm, mmap: limit THP alignment of anonymous mappings to PMD-aligned sizes
Since commit efa7df3e3bb5 ("mm: align larger anonymous mappings on THP
boundaries") a mmap() of anonymous memory without a specific address hint
and of at least PMD_SIZE will be aligned to PMD so that it can benefit
from a THP backing page.
However this change has been shown to regress some workloads
significantly. [1] reports regressions in various spec benchmarks, with
up to 600% slowdown of the cactusBSSN benchmark on some platforms. The
benchmark seems to create many mappings of 4632kB, which would have merged
to a large THP-backed area before commit efa7df3e3bb5 and now they are
fragmented to multiple areas each aligned to PMD boundary with gaps
between. The regression then seems to be caused mainly due to the
benchmark's memory access pattern suffering from TLB or cache aliasing due
to the aligned boundaries of the individual areas.
Another known regression bisected to commit efa7df3e3bb5 is darktable [2]
[3] and early testing suggests this patch fixes the regression there as
well.
To fix the regression but still try to benefit from THP-friendly anonymous
mapping alignment, add a condition that the size of the mapping must be a
multiple of PMD size instead of at least PMD size. In case of many
odd-sized mapping like the cactusBSSN creates, those will stop being
aligned and with gaps between, and instead naturally merge again.

mm: allow set/clear page_type again
Some page flags (page->flags) were converted to page types
(page->page_types). A recent example is PG_hugetlb.
From the exclusive writer's perspective, e.g., a thread doing
__folio_set_hugetlb(), there is a difference between the page flag and
type APIs: the former allows the same non-atomic operation to be repeated
whereas the latter does not. For example, calling __folio_set_hugetlb()
twice triggers VM_BUG_ON_FOLIO(), since the second call expects the type
(PG_hugetlb) not to be set previously.
Using add_hugetlb_folio() as an example, it calls __folio_set_hugetlb() in
the following error-handling path. And when that happens, it triggers the
aforementioned VM_BUG_ON_FOLIO().
if (folio_test_hugetlb(folio)) {
rc = hugetlb_vmemmap_restore_folio(h, folio);
if (rc) {
spin_lock_irq(&hugetlb_lock);
add_hugetlb_folio(h, folio, false);

It is possible to make hugeTLB comply with the new requirements from the

same page type to be set or cleared again inside the API, to avoid any
changes to its callers.

nilfs2: fix potential deadlock with newly created symlinks
Syzbot reported that page_symlink(), called by nilfs_symlink(), triggers
memory reclamation involving the filesystem layer, which can result in
circular lock dependencies among the reader/writer semaphore
nilfs->ns_segctor_sem, s_writers percpu_rwsem (intwrite) and the
fs_reclaim pseudo lock.
This is because after commit 21fc61c73c39 ("don't put symlink bodies in
pagecache into highmem"), the gfp flags of the page cache for symbolic
links are overwritten to GFP_KERNEL via inode_nohighmem().
This is not a problem for symlinks read from the backing device, because
the __GFP_FS flag is dropped after inode_nohighmem() is called. However,
when a new symlink is created with nilfs_symlink(), the gfp flags remain
overwritten to GFP_KERNEL. Then, memory allocation called from
page_symlink() etc. triggers memory reclamation including the FS layer,
which may call nilfs_evict_inode() or nilfs_dirty_inode(). And these can
cause a deadlock if they are called while nilfs->ns_segctor_sem is held:
Fix this issue by dropping the __GFP_FS flag from the page cache GFP flags
of newly created symlinks in the same way that nilfs_new_inode() and
__nilfs_read_inode() do, as a workaround until we adopt nofs allocation
scope consistently or improve the locking constraints.

mm, swap: avoid over reclaim of full clusters
When running low on usable slots, cluster allocator will try to reclaim
the full clusters aggressively to reclaim HAS_CACHE slots. This
guarantees that as long as there are any usable slots, HAS_CACHE or not,
the swap device will be usable and workload won't go OOM early.
Before the cluster allocator, swap allocator fails easily if device is
filled up with reclaimable HAS_CACHE slots. Which can be easily
reproduced with following simple program:
Setup an 8G non ramdisk swap, the first run of the program will swapout 8G
ram successfully. But run same program again after the first run paused,
the second run can't swapout all 8G memory as now half of the swap device
is pinned by HAS_CACHE. There was a random scan in the old allocator that
may reclaim part of the HAS_CACHE by luck, but it's unreliable.
The new allocator's added reclaim of full clusters when device is low on
usable slots. But when multiple CPUs are seeing the device is low on
usable slots at the same time, they ran into a thundering herd problem.
This is an observable problem on large machine with mass parallel
workload, as full cluster reclaim is slower on large swap device and
higher number of CPUs will also make things worse.
Testing using a 128G ZRAM on a 48c96t system. When the swap device is
very close to full (eg. 124G / 128G), running build linux kernel with
make -j96 in a 1G memory cgroup will hung (not a softlockup though)
spinning in full cluster reclaim for about ~5min before go OOM.
To solve this, split the full reclaim into two parts:
- Instead of do a synchronous aggressively reclaim when device is low,
do only one aggressively reclaim when device is strictly full with a
kworker. This still ensures in worst case the device won't be unusable
because of HAS_CACHE slots.
- To avoid allocation (especially higher order) suffer from HAS_CACHE
filling up clusters and kworker not responsive enough, do one synchronous
scan every time the free list is drained, and only scan one cluster. This
is kind of similar to the random reclaim before, keeps the full clusters
rotated and has a minimal latency. This should provide a fair reclaim
strategy suitable for most workloads.

mm/gup: stop leaking pinned pages in low memory conditions
If a driver tries to call any of the pin_user_pages*(FOLL_LONGTERM) family
of functions, and requests "too many" pages, then the call will
erroneously leave pages pinned. This is visible in user space as an
actual memory leak.
Repro is trivial: just make enough pin_user_pages(FOLL_LONGTERM) calls to
exhaust memory.
The root cause of the problem is this sequence, within
__gup_longterm_locked():
...which gets retried in a loop. The loop error handling is incomplete,
clearly due to a somewhat unusual and complicated tri-state error API.
But anyway, if -ENOMEM, or in fact, any unexpected error is returned from
check_and_migrate_movable_pages(), then __gup_longterm_locked() happily
returns the error, while leaving the pages pinned.
In the failed case, which is an app that requests (via a device driver) 30720000000 bytes to be pinned, and then exits, I see this:
Note that the child routine, check_and_migrate_movable_folios(), avoids
this problem, by unpinning any folios in the **folios argument, before
returning an error.
Fix this by making check_and_migrate_movable_pages() behave in exactly the
same way as check_and_migrate_movable_folios(): unpin all pages in
**pages, before returning an error.
Also, documentation was an aggravating factor, so:
1) Consolidate the documentation for these two routines, now that they
have identical external behavior.
2) Rewrite the consolidated documentation:
a) Clearly list the three return code cases, and what happens in
each case.
b) Mention that one of the cases unpins the pages or folios, before
returning an error code.

Android devices. To address this, we can use a waitqueue to wake up tasks
that fail `swapcache_prepare()` sooner, instead of always sleeping for a
full tick. While tasks may occasionally be woken by an unrelated
`do_swap_page()`, this method is preferable to two scenarios: rapid
re-entry into page faults, which can cause livelocks, and multiple
millisecond sleeps, which visibly degrade user experience.
Oven's testing shows that a single waitqueue resolves the UI stuttering
issue. If a 'thundering herd' problem becomes apparent later, a waitqueue
hash similar to `folio_wait_table[PAGE_WAIT_TABLE_SIZE]` for page bit
locks can be introduced.

mm: split critical region in remap_file_pages() and invoke LSMs in between
Commit ea7e2d5e49c0 ("mm: call the security_mmap_file() LSM hook in
remap_file_pages()") fixed a security issue, it added an LSM check when
trying to remap file pages, so that LSMs have the opportunity to evaluate
such action like for other memory operations such as mmap() and
mprotect().
However, that commit called security_mmap_file() inside the mmap_lock
lock, while the other calls do it before taking the lock, after commit 8b3ec6814c83 ("take security_mmap_file() outside of ->mmap_sem").
This caused lock inversion issue with IMA which was taking the mmap_lock
and i_mutex lock in the opposite way when the remap_file_pages() system
call was called.
Solve the issue by splitting the critical region in remap_file_pages() in
two regions: the first takes a read lock of mmap_lock, retrieves the VMA
and the file descriptor associated, and calculates the 'prot' and 'flags'
variables; the second takes a write lock on mmap_lock, checks that the VMA
flags and the VMA file descriptor are the same as the ones obtained in the
first critical region (otherwise the system call fails), and calls
do_mmap().
In between, after releasing the read lock and before taking the write
lock, call security_mmap_file(), and solve the lock inversion issue.

mm/vma: add expand-only VMA merge mode and optimise do_brk_flags()
Patch series "introduce VMA merge mode to improve brk() performance".
A ~5% performance regression was discovered on the
aim9.brk_test.ops_per_sec by the linux kernel test bot [0].
In the past to satisfy brk() performance we duplicated VMA expansion code
and special-cased do_brk_flags(). This is however horrid and undoes work
to abstract this logic, so in resolving the issue I have endeavoured to
avoid this.
Investigating further I was able to observe that the use of a
vma_iter_next_range() and vma_prev() pair, causing an unnecessary maple
tree walk. In addition there is work that we do that is simply
unnecessary for brk().
Therefore, add a special VMA merge mode VMG_FLAG_JUST_EXPAND to avoid
doing any of this - it assumes the VMA iterator is pointing at the
previous VMA and which skips logic that brk() does not require.
This mostly eliminates the performance regression reducing it to ~2% which
is in the realm of noise. In addition, the will-it-scale test brk2,
written to be more representative of real-world brk() usage, shows a
modest performance improvement - which gives me confidence that we are not
meaningfully regressing real workloads here.
This series includes a test asserting that the 'just expand' mode works as
expected.
With many thanks to Oliver Sang for helping with performance testing of
candidate patch sets!
We know in advance that do_brk_flags() wants only to perform a VMA
expansion (if the prior VMA is compatible), and that we assume no
mergeable VMA follows it.
These are the semantics of this function prior to the recent rewrite of
the VMA merging logic, however we are now doing more work than necessary -
positioning the VMA iterator at the prior VMA and performing tasks that
are not required.
Add a new field to the vmg struct to permit merge flags and add a new
merge flag VMG_FLAG_JUST_EXPAND which implies this behaviour, and have
do_brk_flags() use this.
This fixes a reported performance regression in a brk() benchmarking suite.

walk_system_ram_res_rev() erroneously discards resource flags when passing

This leads to undefined behavior after reboot. If the kexec buffer is

lead to a crash (like below) or undefined behavior.

nilfs2: fix kernel bug due to missing clearing of checked flag

__block_write_begin_int(), which is called to prepare block writes, may
fail the BUG_ON check for accesses exceeding the folio/page size,
triggering a kernel bug.
This was found to be because the "checked" flag of a page/folio was not
cleared when it was discarded by nilfs2's own routine, which causes the
sanity check of directory entries to be skipped when the directory
page/folio is reloaded. So, fix that.
This was necessary when the use of nilfs2's own page discard routine was

When calling generic_fillattr(), if you don't hold read lock, data-race
will occur in inode member variables, which can cause unexpected
behavior.
Since there is no special protection when shmem_getattr() calls
generic_fillattr(), data-race occurs by functions such as shmem_unlink()
or shmem_mknod(). This can cause unexpected results, so commenting it out
is not enough.
Therefore, when calling generic_fillattr() from shmem_getattr(), it is
appropriate to protect the inode using inode_lock_shared() and
inode_unlock_shared() to prevent data-race.

mm: mark mas allocation in vms_abort_munmap_vmas as __GFP_NOFAIL
vms_abort_munmap_vmas() is a recovery path where, on entry, some VMAs have
already been torn down halfway (in a way we can't undo) but are still
present in the maple tree.
At this point, we *must* remove the VMAs from the VMA tree, otherwise we
get UAF.
Because removing VMA tree nodes can require memory allocation, the
existing code has an error path which tries to handle this by reattaching
the VMAs; but that can't be done safely.
A nicer way to fix it would probably be to preallocate enough maple tree
nodes for the removal before the point of no return, or something like
that; but for now, fix it the easy and kinda ugly way, by marking this
allocation __GFP_NOFAIL.
