Revert "mm: init_mlocked_on_free_v3"
There was insufficient review and no agreement that this is the right
approach.
There are serious flaws with the implementation that make processes using
mlock() not even work with simple fork() [1] and we get reliable crashes
when rebooting.
Further, simply because we might be unmapping a single PTE of a large
mlocked folio, we shouldn't zero out the whole folio.
... especially because the code can also *corrupt* urelated memory because
kernel_init_pages(page, folio_nr_pages(folio));
Could end up writing outside of the actual folio if we work with a tail
page.
Let's revert it. Once there is agreement that this is the right approach,
the issues were fixed and there was reasonable review and proper testing,
we can consider it again.

mseal: add mseal syscall
The new mseal() is an syscall on 64 bit CPU, and with following signature: int mseal(void addr, size_t len, unsigned long flags) addr/len: memory range. flags: reserved. mseal() blocks following operations for the given memory range. 1> Unmapping, moving to another location, and shrinking the size, via munmap() and mremap(), can leave an empty space, therefore can be replaced with a VMA with a new set of attributes. 2> Moving or expanding a different VMA into the current location, via mremap(). 3> Modifying a VMA via mmap(MAP_FIXED). 4> Size expansion, via mremap(), does not appear to pose any specific risks to sealed VMAs. It is included anyway because the use case is unclear. In any case, users can rely on merging to expand a sealed VMA. 5> mprotect() and pkey_mprotect(). 6> Some destructive madvice() behaviors (e.g. MADV_DONTNEED) for anonymous memory, when users don't have write permission to the memory. Those behaviors can alter region contents by discarding pages, effectively a memset(0) for anonymous memory. Following input during RFC are incooperated into this patch: Jann Horn: raising awareness and providing valuable insights on the destructive madvise operations. Linus Torvalds: assisting in defining system call signature and scope. Liam R. Howlett: perf optimization. Theo de Raadt: sharing the experiences and insight gained from implementing mimmutable() in OpenBSD. Finally, the idea that inspired this patch comes from Stephen Röttger's work in Chrome V8 CFI.

mm: track mapcount of large folios in single value
Let's track the mapcount of large folios in a single value. The mapcount of a large folio currently corresponds to the sum of the entire mapcount and all page mapcounts. This sum is what we actually want to know in folio_mapcount() and it is also sufficient for implementing folio_mapped(). With PTE-mapped THP becoming more important and more widely used, we want to avoid looping over all pages of a folio just to obtain the mapcount of large folios. The comment "In the common case, avoid the loop when no pages mapped by PTE" in folio_total_mapcount() does no longer hold for mTHP that are always mapped by PTE. Further, we are planning on using folio_mapcount() more frequently, and might even want to remove page mapcounts for large folios in some kernel configs. Therefore, allow for reading the mapcount of large folios efficiently and atomically without looping over any pages. Maintain the mapcount also for hugetlb pages for simplicity. Use the new mapcount to implement folio_mapcount() and folio_mapped(). Make page_mapped() simply call folio_mapped(). We can now get rid of folio_large_is_mapped(). _nr_pages_mapped is now only used in rmap code and for debugging purposes. Keep folio_nr_pages_mapped() around, but document that its use should be limited to rmap internals and debugging purposes. This change implies one additional atomic add/sub whenever mapping/unmapping (parts of) a large folio. As we now batch RMAP operations for PTE-mapped THP during fork(), during unmap/zap, and when PTE-remapping a PMD-mapped THP, and we adjust the large mapcount for a PTE batch only once, the added overhead in the common case is small. Only when unmapping individual pages of a large folio (e.g., during COW), the overhead might be bigger in comparison, but it's essentially one additional atomic operation. Note that before the new mapcount would overflow, already our refcount would overflow: each mapping requires a folio reference. Extend the focumentation of folio_mapcount().

mm: madvise: avoid split during MADV_PAGEOUT and MADV_COLD
Rework madvise_cold_or_pageout_pte_range() to avoid splitting any large folio that is fully and contiguously mapped in the pageout/cold vm range. This change means that large folios will be maintained all the way to swap storage. This both improves performance during swap-out, by eliding the cost of splitting the folio, and sets us up nicely for maintaining the large folio when it is swapped back in (to be covered in a separate series). Folios that are not fully mapped in the target range are still split, but note that behavior is changed so that if the split fails for any reason (folio locked, shared, etc) we now leave it as is and move to the next pte in the range and continue work on the proceeding folios. Previously any failure of this sort would cause the entire operation to give up and no folios mapped at higher addresses were paged out or made cold. Given large folios are becoming more common, this old behavior would have likely lead to wasted opportunities. While we are at it, change the code that clears young from the ptes to use ptep_test_and_clear_young(), via the new mkold_ptes() batch helper function. This is more efficent than get_and_clear/modify/set, especially for contpte mappings on arm64, where the old approach would require unfolding/refolding and the new approach can be done in place.

mm: swap: free_swap_and_cache_nr() as batched free_swap_and_cache()
Now that we no longer have a convenient flag in the cluster to determine if a folio is large, free_swap_and_cache() will take a reference and lock a large folio much more often, which could lead to contention and (e.g.) failure to split large folios, etc. Let's solve that problem by batch freeing swap and cache with a new function, free_swap_and_cache_nr(), to free a contiguous range of swap entries together. This allows us to first drop a reference to each swap slot before we try to release the cache folio. This means we only try to release the folio once, only taking the reference and lock once - much better than the previous 512 times for the 2M THP case. Contiguous swap entries are gathered in zap_pte_range() and madvise_free_pte_range() in a similar way to how present ptes are already gathered in zap_pte_range(). While we are at it, let's simplify by converting the return type of both functions to void. The return value was used only by zap_pte_range() to print a bad pte, and was ignored by everyone else, so the extra reporting wasn't exactly guaranteed. We will still get the warning with most of the information from get_swap_device(). With the batch version, we wouldn't know which pte was bad anyway so could print the wrong one.

mm: allow anon exclusive check over hugetlb tail pages
PageAnonExclusive() used to forbid tail pages for hugetlbfs, as that used
to be called mostly in hugetlb specific paths and the head page was
guaranteed.
As we move forward towards merging hugetlb paths into generic mm, we may
start to pass in tail hugetlb pages (when with cont-pte/cont-pmd huge
pages) for such check. Allow it to properly fetch the head, in which case
the anon-exclusiveness of the head will always represents the tail page.
There's already a sign of it when we look at the GUP-fast which already
contain the hugetlb processing altogether: we used to have a specific

mm/gup: handle huge pmd for follow_pmd_mask()
Replace pmd_trans_huge() with pmd_leaf() to also cover pmd_huge() as long as enabled. FOLL_TOUCH and FOLL_SPLIT_PMD only apply to THP, not yet huge. Since now follow_trans_huge_pmd() can process hugetlb pages, renaming it into follow_huge_pmd() to match what it does. Move it into gup.c so not depend on CONFIG_THP. When at it, move the ctx->page_mask setup into follow_huge_pmd(), only set it when the page is valid. It was not a bug to set it before even if GUP failed (page==NULL), because follow_page_mask() callers always ignores page_mask if so. But doing so makes the code cleaner.

mm/gup: handle huge pud for follow_pud_mask()
Teach follow_pud_mask() to be able to handle normal PUD pages like hugetlb. Rename follow_devmap_pud() to follow_huge_pud() so that it can process either huge devmap or hugetlb. Move it out of TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE_PUD and and huge_memory.c (which relies on CONFIG_THP). Switch to pud_leaf() to detect both cases in the slow gup. In the new follow_huge_pud(), taking care of possible CoR for hugetlb if necessary. touch_pud() needs to be moved out of huge_memory.c to be accessable from gup.c even if !THP. Since at it, optimize the non-present check by adding a pud_present() early check before taking the pgtable lock, failing the follow_page() early if PUD is not present: that is required by both devmap or hugetlb. Use pud_huge() to also cover the pud_devmap() case. One more trivial thing to mention is, introduce "pud_t pud" in the code paths along the way, so the code doesn't dereference *pudp multiple time. Not only because that looks less straightforward, but also because if the dereference really happened, it's not clear whether there can be race to see different *pudp values when it's being modified at the same time. Setting ctx->page_mask properly for a PUD entry. As a side effect, this patch should also be able to optimize devmap GUP on PUD to be able to jump over the whole PUD range, but not yet verified. Hugetlb already can do so prior to this patch.

mm: record the migration reason for struct migration_target_control
Patch series "make the hugetlb migration strategy consistent", v2. As discussed in previous thread [1], there is an inconsistency when handling hugetlb migration. When handling the migration of freed hugetlb, it prevents fallback to other NUMA nodes in alloc_and_dissolve_hugetlb_folio(). However, when dealing with in-use hugetlb, it allows fallback to other NUMA nodes in alloc_hugetlb_folio_nodemask(), which can break the per-node hugetlb pool and might result in unexpected failures when node bound workloads doesn't get what is asssumed available. This patchset tries to make the hugetlb migration strategy more clear and consistent. Please find details in each patch.

mm: page_alloc: consolidate free page accounting
Free page accounting currently happens a bit too high up the call stack, where it has to deal with guard pages, compaction capturing, block stealing and even page isolation.

mm: page_isolation: prepare for hygienic freelists
Page isolation currently sets MIGRATE_ISOLATE on a block, then drops zone->lock and scans the block for straddling buddies to split up. Because this happens non-atomically wrt the page allocator, it's possible for allocations to get a buddy whose first block is a regular pcp migratetype but whose tail is isolated. This means that in certain cases memory can still be allocated after isolation. It will also trigger the freelist type hygiene warnings in subsequent patches. start_isolate_page_range() isolate_single_pageblock() set_migratetype_isolate(tail) lock zone->lock move_freepages_block(tail) // nop set_pageblock_migratetype(tail) unlock zone->lock __rmqueue_smallest() del_page_from_freelist(head) expand(head, head_mt) WARN(head_mt != tail_mt) start_pfn = ALIGN_DOWN(MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES) for (pfn = start_pfn, pfn < end_pfn) if (PageBuddy()) split_free_page(head) Introduce a variant of move_freepages_block() provided by the allocator specifically for page isolation; it moves free pages, converts the block, and handles the splitting of straddling buddies while holding zone->lock. The allocator knows that pageblocks and buddies are always naturally aligned, which means that buddies can only straddle blocks if they're actually >pageblock_order. This means the search-and-split part can be simplified compared to what page isolation used to do. Also tighten up the page isolation code around the expectations of which pages can be large, and how they are freed. Based on extensive discussions with and invaluable input from Zi Yan.

mm: remove folio_prep_large_rmappable()
Now that prep_compound_page() initialises folio->_deferred_list, folio_prep_large_rmappable()'s only purpose is to set the large_rmappable flag, so inline it into the two callers. Take the opportunity to convert the large_rmappable definition from PAGEFLAG to FOLIO_FLAG and remove the existance of PageTestLargeRmappable and friends.

mm: always initialise folio->_deferred_list
Patch series "Various significant MM patches". These patches all interact in annoying ways which make it tricky to send them out in any way other than a big batch, even though there's not really an overarching theme to connect them. The big effects of this patch series are: - folio_test_hugetlb() becomes reliable, even when called without a page reference - We free up PG_slab, and we could always use more page flags - We no longer need to check PageSlab before calling page_mapcount() This patch (of 9): For compound pages which are at least order-2 (and hence have a deferred_list), initialise it and then we can check at free that the page is not part of a deferred list. We recently found this useful to rule out a source of corruption.

mm/mempolicy: use numa_node_id() instead of cpu_to_node()
Patch series "Allow migrate on protnone reference with MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY policy:, v4. This patchset is to optimize the cross-socket memory access with MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY policy. To test this patch we ran the following test on a 3 node system. Node 0 - 2GB - Tier 1 Node 1 - 11GB - Tier 1 Node 6 - 10GB - Tier 2 Below changes are made to memcached to set the memory policy, It select Node0 and Node1 as preferred nodes. #include <numaif.h> #include <numa.h> unsigned long nodemask; int ret; nodemask = 0x03; ret = set_mempolicy(MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY | MPOL_F_NUMA_BALANCING, &nodemask, 10); /* If MPOL_F_NUMA_BALANCING isn't supported, * fall back to MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY */ if (ret < 0 && errno == EINVAL){ printf("set mem policy normal\n"); ret = set_mempolicy(MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY, &nodemask, 10); } if (ret < 0) { perror("Failed to call set_mempolicy"); exit(-1); } Test Procedure: =============== 1.

mm/madvise: make MADV_POPULATE_(READ|WRITE) handle VM_FAULT_RETRY properly
Darrick reports that in some cases where pread() would fail with -EIO and
mmap()+access would generate a SIGBUS signal, MADV_POPULATE_READ /
MADV_POPULATE_WRITE will keep retrying forever and not fail with -EFAULT.
While the madvise() call can be interrupted by a signal, this is not the
desired behavior. MADV_POPULATE_READ / MADV_POPULATE_WRITE should behave
like page faults in that case: fail and not retry forever.
A reproducer can be found at [1].
The reason is that __get_user_pages(), as called by
faultin_vma_page_range(), will not handle VM_FAULT_RETRY in a proper way:
it will simply return 0 when VM_FAULT_RETRY happened, making
madvise_populate()->faultin_vma_page_range() retry again and again, never
setting FOLL_TRIED->FAULT_FLAG_TRIED for __get_user_pages().
__get_user_pages_locked() does what we want, but duplicating that logic in
faultin_vma_page_range() feels wrong.
So let's use __get_user_pages_locked() instead, that will detect
VM_FAULT_RETRY and set FOLL_TRIED when retrying, making the fault handler
return VM_FAULT_SIGBUS (VM_FAULT_ERROR) at some point, propagating -EFAULT
from faultin_page() to __get_user_pages(), all the way to
madvise_populate().
But, there is an issue: __get_user_pages_locked() will end up re-taking
the MM lock and then __get_user_pages() will do another VMA lookup. In
the meantime, the VMA layout could have changed and we'd fail with
different error codes than we'd want to.
As __get_user_pages() will currently do a new VMA lookup either way, let
it do the VMA handling in a different way, controlled by a new
FOLL_MADV_POPULATE flag, effectively moving these checks from
madvise_populate() + faultin_page_range() in there.
With this change, Darricks reproducer properly fails with -EFAULT, as
documented for MADV_POPULATE_READ / MADV_POPULATE_WRITE.

Folios of order 1 have no space to store the deferred list. This is not a problem for the page cache as file-backed folios are never placed on the deferred list.

mm: madvise: pageout: ignore references rather than clearing young
While doing MADV_PAGEOUT, the current code will clear PTE young so that vmscan won't read young flags to allow the reclamation of madvised folios to go ahead. It seems we can do it by directly ignoring references, thus we can remove tlb flush in madvise and rmap overhead in vmscan. Regarding the side effect, in the original code, if a parallel thread runs side by side to access the madvised memory with the thread doing madvise, folios will get a chance to be re-activated by vmscan (though the time gap is actually quite small since checking PTEs is done immediately after clearing PTEs young). But with this patch, they will still be reclaimed. But this behaviour doing PAGEOUT and doing access at the same time is quite silly like DoS. So probably, we don't need to care. Or ignoring the new access during the quite small time gap is even better. For DAMON's DAMOS_PAGEOUT based on physical address region, we still keep its behaviour as is since a physical address might be mapped by multiple processes. MADV_PAGEOUT based on virtual address is actually much more aggressive on reclamation. To untouch paddr's DAMOS_PAGEOUT, we simply pass ignore_references as false in reclaim_pages(). A microbench as below has shown 6% decrement on the latency of MADV_PAGEOUT, #define PGSIZE 4096 main() { int i; #define SIZE 512*1024*1024 volatile long *p = mmap(NULL, SIZE, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0); for (i = 0; i < SIZE/sizeof(long); i += PGSIZE / sizeof(long)) p[i] = 0x11; madvise(p, SIZE, MADV_PAGEOUT); } w/o patch w/ patch root@10:~# time ./a.out root@10:~# time ./a.out real 0m49.634s real 0m46.334s user 0m0.637s user 0m0.648s sys 0m47.434s sys 0m44.265s Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20240226005739.24350-1-21cnbao@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Barry Song <v-songbaohua@oppo.com> Acked-by: Minchan Kim <minchan@kernel.org> Cc: SeongJae Park <sj@kernel.org> Cc: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com> Cc: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> |

mm/memory: change vmf_anon_prepare() to be non-static
Patch series "Handle hugetlb faults under the VMA lock", v2. It is generally safe to handle hugetlb faults under the VMA lock. The only time this is unsafe is when no anon_vma has been allocated to this vma yet, so we can use vmf_anon_prepare() instead of anon_vma_prepare() to bailout if necessary. This should only happen for the first hugetlb page in the vma. Additionally, this patchset begins to use struct vm_fault within hugetlb_fault(). This works towards cleaning up hugetlb code, and should significantly reduce the number of arguments passed to functions. The last patch in this series may cause ltp hugemmap10 to "fail". This is because vmf_anon_prepare() may bailout with no anon_vma under the VMA lock after allocating a folio for the hugepage. In free_huge_folio(), this folio is completely freed on bailout iff there is a surplus of hugetlb pages. This will remove a folio off the freelist and decrement the number of hugepages while ltp expects these counters to remain unchanged on failure. The rest of the ltp testcases pass. This patch (of 2): In order to handle hugetlb faults under the VMA lock, hugetlb can use vmf_anon_prepare() to ensure we can safely prepare an anon_vma. Change it to be a non-static function so it can be used within hugetlb as well.

mm/compaction: add support for >0 order folio memory compaction.
Before last commit, memory compaction only migrates order-0 folios and skips >0 order folios. Last commit splits all >0 order folios during compaction. This commit migrates >0 order folios during compaction by keeping isolated free pages at their original size without splitting them into order-0 pages and using them directly during migration process. What is different from the prior implementation: 1. All isolated free pages are kept in a NR_PAGE_ORDERS array of page lists, where each page list stores free pages in the same order. 2. All free pages are not post_alloc_hook() processed nor buddy pages, although their orders are stored in first page's private like buddy pages. 3. During migration, in new page allocation time (i.e., in compaction_alloc()), free pages are then processed by post_alloc_hook(). When migration fails and a new page is returned (i.e., in compaction_free()), free pages are restored by reversing the post_alloc_hook() operations using newly added free_pages_prepare_fpi_none(). Step 3 is done for a latter optimization that splitting and/or merging free pages during compaction becomes easier. Note: without splitting free pages, compaction can end prematurely due to migration will return -ENOMEM even if there is free pages. This happens when no order-0 free page exist and compaction_alloc() return NULL.

While at it, turn the BUG_ON into a WARN_ON_ONCE. Note that page_try_share_anon_rmap() so far didn't care about pte/pmd mappings (no compound parameter). We're changing that so we can perform better sanity checks and make the code actually more readable/consistent.

maple_tree: separate ma_state node from status
The maple tree node is overloaded to keep status as well as the active node. This, unfortunately, results in a re-walk on underflow or overflow. Since the maple state has room, the status can be placed in its own enum in the structure. Once an underflow/overflow is detected, certain modes can restore the status to active and others may need to re-walk just that one node to see the entry. The status being an enum has the benefit of detecting unhandled status in switch statements.

Move the debug check from the vma iterator into the maple tree itself so other users do not incorrectly use the advanced maple state modification. Fallout from this change include a large amount of debug setup needed to be moved to earlier in the header, and the maple_tree.h radix-tree test code needed to move the inclusion of the header to after the atomic define.

mm: make mapping_evict_folio() the preferred way to evict clean folios
Patch series "Fix fault handler's handling of poisoned tail pages". Since introducing the ability to have large folios in the page cache, it's been possible to have a hwpoisoned tail page returned from the fault handler. We handle this situation poorly; failing to remove the affected page from use. This isn't a minimal patch to fix it, it's a full conversion of all the code surrounding it. This patch (of 6): invalidate_inode_page() does very little beyond calling mapping_evict_folio(). Move the check for mapping being NULL into mapping_evict_folio() and make it available to the rest of the MM for use in the next few patches.

fork: use __mt_dup() to duplicate maple tree in dup_mmap()
In dup_mmap(), using __mt_dup() to duplicate the old maple tree and then directly replacing the entries of VMAs in the new maple tree can result in better performance. __mt_dup() uses DFS pre-order to duplicate the maple tree, so it is efficient. The average time complexity of __mt_dup() is O(n), where n is the number of VMAs. The proof of the time complexity is provided in the commit log that introduces __mt_dup(). After duplicating the maple tree, each element is traversed and replaced (ignoring the cases of deletion, which are rare). Since it is only a replacement operation for each element, this process is also O(n). Analyzing the exact time complexity of the previous algorithm is challenging because each insertion can involve appending to a node, pushing data to adjacent nodes, or even splitting nodes. The frequency of each action is difficult to calculate. The worst-case scenario for a single insertion is when the tree undergoes splitting at every level. If we consider each insertion as the worst-case scenario, we can determine that the upper bound of the time complexity is O(n*log(n)), although this is a loose upper bound. However, based on the test data, it appears that the actual time complexity is likely to be O(n). As the entire maple tree is duplicated using __mt_dup(), if dup_mmap() fails, there will be a portion of VMAs that have not been duplicated in the maple tree. To handle this, we mark the failure point with XA_ZERO_ENTRY. In exit_mmap(), if this marker is encountered, stop releasing VMAs that have not been duplicated after this point. There is a "spawn" in byte-unixbench[1], which can be used to test the performance of fork(). I modified it slightly to make it work with different number of VMAs. Below are the test results. The first row shows the number of VMAs. The second and third rows show the number of fork() calls per ten seconds, corresponding to next-20231006 and the this patchset, respectively. The test results were obtained with CPU binding to avoid scheduler load balancing that could cause unstable results. There are still some fluctuations in the test results, but at least they are better than the original performance. 21 121 221 421 821 1621 3221 6421 12821 25621 51221 112100 76261 54227 34035 20195 11112 6017 3161 1606 802 393 114558 83067 65008 45824 28751 16072 8922 4747 2436 1233 599 2.19% 8.92% 19.88% 34.64% 42.37% 44.64% 48.28% 50.17% 51.68% 53.74% 52.42% [1] https://github.com/kdlucas/byte-unixbench/tree/master Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20231027033845.90608-11-zhangpeng.00@bytedance.com Signed-off-by: Peng Zhang <zhangpeng.00@bytedance.com> Suggested-by: Liam R.

mm: abstract VMA merge and extend into vma_merge_extend() helper
mremap uses vma_merge() in the case where a VMA needs to be extended. This can be significantly simplified and abstracted. This makes it far easier to understand what the actual function is doing, avoids future mistakes in use of the confusing vma_merge() function and importantly allows us to make future changes to how vma_merge() is implemented by knowing explicitly which merge cases each invocation uses. Note that in the mremap() extend case, we perform this merge only when old_len == vma->vm_end - addr. The extension_start, i.e. the start of the extended portion of the VMA is equal to addr + old_len, i.e. vma->vm_end. With this refactoring, vma_merge() is no longer required anywhere except mm/mmap.c, so mark it static.

mm: handle large folio when large folio in VM_LOCKED VMA range
If large folio is in the range of VM_LOCKED VMA, it should be mlocked to avoid being picked by page reclaim. Which may split the large folio and then mlock each pages again. Mlock this kind of large folio to prevent them being picked by page reclaim. For the large folio which cross the boundary of VM_LOCKED VMA or not fully mapped to VM_LOCKED VMA, we'd better not to mlock it. So if the system is under memory pressure, this kind of large folio will be split and the pages ouf of VM_LOCKED VMA can be reclaimed. Ideally, for large folio, we should mlock it when the large folio is fully mapped to VMA and munlock it if any page are unmampped from VMA. But it's not easy to detect whether the large folio is fully mapped to VMA in some cases (like add/remove rmap). So we update mlock_vma_folio() and munlock_vma_folio() to mlock/munlock the folio according to vma->vm_flags. Let caller to decide whether they should call these two functions. For add rmap, only mlock normal 4K folio and postpone large folio handling to page reclaim phase. It is possible to reuse page table iterator to detect whether folio is fully mapped or not during page reclaim phase. For remove rmap, invoke munlock_vma_folio() to munlock folio unconditionly because rmap makes folio not fully mapped to VMA.

mm: add functions folio_in_range() and folio_within_vma()
Patch series "support large folio for mlock", v3. Yu mentioned at [1] about the mlock() can't be applied to large folio. I leant the related code and here is my understanding: - For RLIMIT_MEMLOCK related, there is no problem. Because the RLIMIT_MEMLOCK statistics is not related underneath page. That means underneath page mlock or munlock doesn't impact the RLIMIT_MEMLOCK statistics collection which is always correct. - For keeping the page in RAM, there is no problem either. At least, during try_to_unmap_one(), once detect the VMA has VM_LOCKED bit set in vm_flags, the folio will be kept whatever the folio is mlocked or not. So the function of mlock for large folio works. But it's not optimized because the page reclaim needs scan these large folio and may split them. This series identified the large folio for mlock to four types: - The large folio is in VM_LOCKED range and fully mapped to the range - The large folio is in the VM_LOCKED range but not fully mapped to the range - The large folio cross VM_LOCKED VMA boundary - The large folio cross last level page table boundary For the first type, we mlock large folio so page reclaim will skip it. For the second/third type, we don't mlock large folio. As the pages not mapped to VM_LOACKED range are mapped to none VM_LOCKED range, if system is in memory pressure situation, the large folio can be picked by page reclaim and split. Then the pages not mapped to VM_LOCKED range can be reclaimed. For the fourth type, we don't mlock large folio because locking one page table lock can't prevent the part in another last level page table being unmapped. Thanks to Ryan for pointing this out. To check whether the folio is fully mapped to the range, PTEs needs be checked to see whether the page of folio is associated. Which needs take page table lock and is heavy operation. So far, the only place needs this check is madvise and page reclaim. These functions already have their own PTE iterator. patch1 introduce API to check whether large folio is in VMA range. patch2 make page reclaim/mlock_vma_folio/munlock_vma_folio support large folio mlock/munlock. patch3 make mlock/munlock syscall support large folio. Yu also mentioned a race which can make folio unevictable after munlock during RFC v2 discussion [3]: We decided that race issue didn't block this series based on: - That race issue was not introduced by this series - We had a looks-ok fix for that race issue. Need to wait for mlock_count fixing patch as Yosry Ahmed suggested [4] [1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/CAOUHufbtNPkdktjt_5qM45GegVO-rCFOMkSh0HQminQ12zsV8Q@mail.gmail.com/ [2] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20230809061105.3369958-1-fengwei.yin@intel.com/ [3] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/CAOUHufZ6=9P_=CAOQyw0xw-3q707q-1FVV09dBNDC-hpcpj2Pg@mail.gmail.com/ This patch (of 3): folio_in_range() will be used to check whether the folio is mapped to specific VMA and whether the mapping address of folio is in the range. Also a helper function folio_within_vma() to check whether folio is in the range of vma based on folio_in_range().

mm: hugetlb: skip initialization of gigantic tail struct pages if freed by HVO
The new boot flow when it comes to initialization of gigantic pages is as follows: - At boot time, for a gigantic page during __alloc_bootmem_hugepage, the region after the first struct page is marked as noinit. - This results in only the first struct page to be initialized in reserve_bootmem_region. As the tail struct pages are not initialized at this point, there can be a significant saving in boot time if HVO succeeds later on. - Later on in the boot, the head page is prepped and the first HUGETLB_VMEMMAP_RESERVE_SIZE / sizeof(struct page) - 1 tail struct pages are initialized. - HVO is attempted. If it is not successful, then the rest of the tail struct pages are initialized. If it is successful, no more tail struct pages need to be initialized saving significant boot time. The WARN_ON for increased ref count in gather_bootmem_prealloc was changed to a VM_BUG_ON. This is OK as there should be no speculative references this early in boot process. The VM_BUG_ON's are there just in case such code is introduced.

mm: shrinker: add infrastructure for dynamically allocating shrinker
Patch series "use refcount+RCU method to implement lockless slab shrink", v6. 1. Background ============= We used to implement the lockless slab shrink with SRCU [1], but then kernel test robot reported -88.8% regression in stress-ng.ramfs.ops_per_sec test case [2], so we reverted it [3]. This patch series aims to re-implement the lockless slab shrink using the refcount+RCU method proposed by Dave Chinner [4]. [1]. https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20230313112819.38938-1-zhengqi.arch@bytedance.com/ [2]. https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/202305230837.db2c233f-yujie.liu@intel.com/ [3]. https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230609081518.3039120-1-qi.zheng@linux.dev/ [4]. https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/ZIJhou1d55d4H1s0@dread.disaster.area/ 2. Implementation ================= Currently, the shrinker instances can be divided into the following three types: a) global shrinker instance statically defined in the kernel, such as workingset_shadow_shrinker. b) global shrinker instance statically defined in the kernel modules, such as mmu_shrinker in x86. c) shrinker instance embedded in other structures. For case a, the memory of shrinker instance is never freed. For case b, the memory of shrinker instance will be freed after synchronize_rcu() when the module is unloaded. For case c, the memory of shrinker instance will be freed along with the structure it is embedded in. In preparation for implementing lockless slab shrink, we need to dynamically allocate those shrinker instances in case c, then the memory can be dynamically freed alone by calling kfree_rcu(). This patchset adds the following new APIs for dynamically allocating shrinker, and add a private_data field to struct shrinker to record and get the original embedded structure. 1. shrinker_alloc() 2. shrinker_register() 3. shrinker_free() In order to simplify shrinker-related APIs and make shrinker more independent of other kernel mechanisms, this patchset uses the above APIs to convert all shrinkers (including case a and b) to dynamically allocated, and then remove all existing APIs. This will also have another advantage mentioned by Dave Chinner: ``` The other advantage of this is that it will break all the existing out of tree code and third party modules using the old API and will no longer work with a kernel using lockless slab shrinkers. They need to break (both at the source and binary levels) to stop bad things from happening due to using uncoverted shrinkers in the new setup. ``` Then we free the shrinker by calling call_rcu(), and use rcu_read_{lock,unlock}() to ensure that the shrinker instance is valid. And the shrinker::refcount mechanism ensures that the shrinker instance will not be run again after unregistration. So the structure that records the pointer of shrinker instance can be safely freed without waiting for the RCU read-side critical section. In this way, while we implement the lockless slab shrink, we don't need to be blocked in unregister_shrinker() to wait RCU read-side critical section. PATCH 1: introduce new APIs PATCH 2~38: convert all shrinnkers to use new APIs PATCH 39: remove old APIs PATCH 40~41: some cleanups and preparations PATCH 42-43: implement the lockless slab shrink PATCH 44~45: convert shrinker_rwsem to mutex 3. Testing ========== 3.1 slab shrink stress test --------------------------- We can reproduce the down_read_trylock() hotspot through the following script: ``` DIR="/root/shrinker/memcg/mnt" do_create() { mkdir -p /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/test echo 4G > /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/test/memory.limit_in_bytes for i in `seq 0 $1`; do mkdir -p /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/test/$i; echo $$ > /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/test/$i/cgroup.procs; mkdir -p $DIR/$i; done } do_mount() { for i in `seq $1 $2`; do mount -t tmpfs $i $DIR/$i; done } do_touch() { for i in `seq $1 $2`; do echo $$ > /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/test/$i/cgroup.procs; dd if=/dev/zero of=$DIR/$i/file$i bs=1M count=1 & done } case "$1" in touch) do_touch $2 $3 ;; test) do_create 4000 do_mount 0 4000 do_touch 0 3000 ;; *) exit 1 ;; esac ``` Save the above script, then run test and touch commands. Then we can use the following perf command to view hotspots: perf top -U -F 999 1) Before applying this patchset: 33.15% [kernel] [k] down_read_trylock 25.38% [kernel] [k] shrink_slab 21.75% [kernel] [k] up_read 4.45% [kernel] [k] _find_next_bit 2.27% [kernel] [k] do_shrink_slab 1.80% [kernel] [k] intel_idle_irq 1.79% [kernel] [k] shrink_lruvec 0.67% [kernel] [k] xas_descend 0.41% [kernel] [k] mem_cgroup_iter 0.40% [kernel] [k] shrink_node 0.38% [kernel] [k] list_lru_count_one 2) After applying this patchset: 64.56% [kernel] [k] shrink_slab 12.18% [kernel] [k] do_shrink_slab 3.30% [kernel] [k] __rcu_read_unlock 2.61% [kernel] [k] shrink_lruvec 2.49% [kernel] [k] __rcu_read_lock 1.93% [kernel] [k] intel_idle_irq 0.89% [kernel] [k] shrink_node 0.81% [kernel] [k] mem_cgroup_iter 0.77% [kernel] [k] mem_cgroup_calculate_protection 0.66% [kernel] [k] list_lru_count_one We can see that the first perf hotspot becomes shrink_slab, which is what we expect. 3.2 registration and unregistration stress test ----------------------------------------------- Run the command below to test: stress-ng --timeout 60 --times --verify --metrics-brief --ramfs 9 & 1) Before applying this patchset: setting to a 60 second run per stressor dispatching hogs: 9 ramfs stressor bogo ops real time usr time sys time bogo ops/s bogo ops/s (secs) (secs) (secs) (real time) (usr+sys time) ramfs 473062 60.00 8.00 279.13 7884.12 1647.59 for a 60.01s run time: 1440.34s available CPU time 7.99s user time ( 0.55%) 279.13s system time ( 19.38%) 287.12s total time ( 19.93%) load average: 7.12 2.99 1.15 successful run completed in 60.01s (1 min, 0.01 secs) 2) After applying this patchset: setting to a 60 second run per stressor dispatching hogs: 9 ramfs stressor bogo ops real time usr time sys time bogo ops/s bogo ops/s (secs) (secs) (secs) (real time) (usr+sys time) ramfs 477165 60.00 8.13 281.34 7952.55 1648.40 for a 60.01s run time: 1440.33s available CPU time 8.12s user time ( 0.56%) 281.34s system time ( 19.53%) 289.46s total time ( 20.10%) load average: 6.98 3.03 1.19 successful run completed in 60.01s (1 min, 0.01 secs) We can see that the ops/s has hardly changed. This patch (of 45): Currently, the shrinker instances can be divided into the following three types: a) global shrinker instance statically defined in the kernel, such as workingset_shadow_shrinker. b) global shrinker instance statically defined in the kernel modules, such as mmu_shrinker in x86. c) shrinker instance embedded in other structures. For case a, the memory of shrinker instance is never freed. For case b, the memory of shrinker instance will be freed after synchronize_rcu() when the module is unloaded. For case c, the memory of shrinker instance will be freed along with the structure it is embedded in. In preparation for implementing lockless slab shrink, we need to dynamically allocate those shrinker instances in case c, then the memory can be dynamically freed alone by calling kfree_rcu(). So this commit adds the following new APIs for dynamically allocating shrinker, and add a private_data field to struct shrinker to record and get the original embedded structure. 1. shrinker_alloc() Used to allocate shrinker instance itself and related memory, it will return a pointer to the shrinker instance on success and NULL on failure. 2. shrinker_register() Used to register the shrinker instance, which is same as the current register_shrinker_prepared(). 3. shrinker_free() Used to unregister (if needed) and free the shrinker instance. In order to simplify shrinker-related APIs and make shrinker more independent of other kernel mechanisms, subsequent submissions will use the above API to convert all shrinkers (including case a and b) to dynamically allocated, and then remove all existing APIs. This will also have another advantage mentioned by Dave Chinner: ``` The other advantage of this is that it will break all the existing out of tree code and third party modules using the old API and will no longer work with a kernel using lockless slab shrinkers. They need to break (both at the source and binary levels) to stop bad things from happening due to using unconverted shrinkers in the new setup. ``` [zhengqi.arch@bytedance.com: mm: shrinker: some cleanup] Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20230919024607.65463-1-zhengqi.arch@bytedance.com Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20230911094444.68966-1-zhengqi.arch@bytedance.com Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20230911094444.68966-2-zhengqi.arch@bytedance.com Signed-off-by: Qi Zheng <zhengqi.arch@bytedance.com> Reviewed-by: Muchun Song <songmuchun@bytedance.com> Cc: Christian Brauner <brauner@kernel.org> Cc: Chuck Lever <cel@kernel.org> Cc: Darrick J.

CET consists of two related security features: shadow stacks and indirect branch tracking. This series implements just the shadow stack part of this feature, and just for userspace. The main use case for shadow stack is providing protection against return oriented programming attacks. It works by maintaining a secondary (shadow) stack using a special memory type that has protections against modification. When executing a CALL instruction, the processor pushes the return address to both the normal stack and to the special permission shadow stack. Upon RET, the processor pops the shadow stack copy and compares it to the normal stack copy.

mm: disable kernelcore=mirror when no mirror memory
For system with kernelcore=mirror enabled while no mirrored memory is reported by efi. This could lead to kernel OOM during startup since all memory beside zone DMA are in the movable zone and this prevents the kernel to use it. Zone DMA/DMA32 initialization is independent of mirrored memory and their max pfn is set in zone_sizes_init(). Since kernel can fallback to zone DMA/DMA32 if there is no memory in zone Normal, these zones are seen as mirrored memory no mather their memory attributes are. To solve this problem, disable kernelcore=mirror when there is no real mirrored memory exists.

mm/gup: handle cont-PTE hugetlb pages correctly in gup_must_unshare() via GUP-fast
In contrast to most other GUP code, GUP-fast common page table walking
code like gup_pte_range() also handles hugetlb pages. But in contrast to
other hugetlb page table walking code, it does not look at the hugetlb PTE
abstraction whereby we have only a single logical hugetlb PTE per hugetlb
page, even when using multiple cont-PTEs underneath -- which is for
example what huge_ptep_get() abstracts.
So when we have a hugetlb page that is mapped via cont-PTEs, GUP-fast
might stumble over a PTE that does not map the head page of a hugetlb page
-- not the first "head" PTE of such a cont mapping.
Logically, the whole hugetlb page is mapped (entire_mapcount == 1), but we
might end up calling gup_must_unshare() with a tail page of a hugetlb
page.
We only maintain a single PageAnonExclusive flag per hugetlb page (as
hugetlb pages cannot get partially COW-shared), stored for the head page.
That flag is clear for all tail pages.
So when gup_must_unshare() ends up calling PageAnonExclusive() with a tail
page of a hugetlb page:
1) With CONFIG_DEBUG_VM_PGFLAGS
Stumbles over the:
VM_BUG_ON_PGFLAGS(PageHuge(page) && !PageHead(page), page);
For example, when executing the COW selftests with 64k hugetlb pages on
arm64:

2) Without CONFIG_DEBUG_VM_PGFLAGS
Always detects "not exclusive" for passed tail pages and refuses to PIN
the tail pages R/O, as gup_must_unshare() == true. GUP-fast will fallback
to ordinary GUP. As ordinary GUP properly considers the logical hugetlb
PTE abstraction in hugetlb_follow_page_mask(), pinning the page will
succeed when looking at the PageAnonExclusive on the head page only.
So the only real effect of this is that with cont-PTE hugetlb pages, we'll
always fallback from GUP-fast to ordinary GUP when not working on the head
page, which ends up checking the head page and do the right thing.
Consequently, the cow selftests pass with cont-PTE hugetlb pages as well
without CONFIG_DEBUG_VM_PGFLAGS.
Note that this only applies to anon hugetlb pages that are mapped using
cont-PTEs: for example 64k hugetlb pages on a 4k arm64 kernel.
... and only when R/O-pinning (FOLL_PIN) such pages that are mapped into
the page table R/O using GUP-fast.
On production kernels (and even most debug kernels, that don't set
CONFIG_DEBUG_VM_PGFLAGS) this patch should theoretically not be required
to be backported. But of course, it does not hurt.

smaps: use vm_normal_page_pmd() instead of follow_trans_huge_pmd()
We shouldn't be using a GUP-internal helper if it can be avoided. Similar to smaps_pte_entry() that uses vm_normal_page(), let's use vm_normal_page_pmd() that similarly refuses to return the huge zeropage. In contrast to follow_trans_huge_pmd(), vm_normal_page_pmd(): (1) Will always return the head page, not a tail page of a THP. If we'd ever call smaps_account with a tail page while setting "compound = true", we could be in trouble, because smaps_account() would look at the memmap of unrelated pages. If we're unlucky, that memmap does not exist at all. Before we removed PG_doublemap, we could have triggered something similar as in commit |

mm: change do_vmi_align_munmap() tracking of VMAs to remove
The majority of the calls to munmap a vm range is within a single vma. The maple tree is able to store a single entry at 0, with a size of 1 as a pointer and avoid any allocations. Change do_vmi_align_munmap() to store the VMAs being munmap()'ed into a tree indexed by the count. This will leverage the ability to store the first entry without a node allocation. Storing the entries into a tree by the count and not the vma start and end means changing the functions which iterate over the entries. Update unmap_vmas() and free_pgtables() to take a maple state and a tree end address to support this functionality. Passing through the same maple state to unmap_vmas() and free_pgtables() means the state needs to be reset between calls. This happens in the static unmap_region() and exit_mmap().

mm, netfs, fscache: stop read optimisation when folio removed from pagecache
Fscache has an optimisation by which reads from the cache are skipped until we know that (a) there's data there to be read and (b) that data isn't entirely covered by pages resident in the netfs pagecache. This is done with two flags manipulated by fscache_note_page_release(): if (... test_bit(FSCACHE_COOKIE_HAVE_DATA, &cookie->flags) && test_bit(FSCACHE_COOKIE_NO_DATA_TO_READ, &cookie->flags)) clear_bit(FSCACHE_COOKIE_NO_DATA_TO_READ, &cookie->flags); where the NO_DATA_TO_READ flag causes cachefiles_prepare_read() to indicate that netfslib should download from the server or clear the page instead. The fscache_note_page_release() function is intended to be called from ->releasepage() - but that only gets called if PG_private or PG_private_2 is set - and currently the former is at the discretion of the network filesystem and the latter is only set whilst a page is being written to the cache, so sometimes we miss clearing the optimisation. Fix this by following Willy's suggestion[1] and adding an address_space flag, AS_RELEASE_ALWAYS, that causes filemap_release_folio() to always call ->release_folio() if it's set, even if PG_private or PG_private_2 aren't set. Note that this would require folio_test_private() and page_has_private() to become more complicated. To avoid that, in the places[*] where these are used to conditionalise calls to filemap_release_folio() and try_to_release_page(), the tests are removed the those functions just jumped to unconditionally and the test is performed there. [*] There are some exceptions in vmscan.c where the check guards more than just a call to the releaser. I've added a function, folio_needs_release() to wrap all the checks for that. AS_RELEASE_ALWAYS should be set if a non-NULL cookie is obtained from fscache and cleared in ->evict_inode() before truncate_inode_pages_final() is called. Additionally, the FSCACHE_COOKIE_NO_DATA_TO_READ flag needs to be cleared and the optimisation cancelled if a cachefiles object already contains data when we open it.

mm: merge folio_has_private()/filemap_release_folio() call pairs
Patch series "mm, netfs, fscache: Stop read optimisation when folio removed from pagecache", v7. This fixes an optimisation in fscache whereby we don't read from the cache for a particular file until we know that there's data there that we don't have in the pagecache. The problem is that I'm no longer using PG_fscache (aka PG_private_2) to indicate that the page is cached and so I don't get a notification when a cached page is dropped from the pagecache. The first patch merges some folio_has_private() and filemap_release_folio() pairs and introduces a helper, folio_needs_release(), to indicate if a release is required. The second patch is the actual fix. Following Willy's suggestions[1], it adds an AS_RELEASE_ALWAYS flag to an address_space that will make filemap_release_folio() always call ->release_folio(), even if PG_private/PG_private_2 aren't set. folio_needs_release() is altered to add a check for this. This patch (of 2): Make filemap_release_folio() check folio_has_private(). Then, in most cases, where a call to folio_has_private() is immediately followed by a call to filemap_release_folio(), we can get rid of the test in the pair. There are a couple of sites in mm/vscan.c that this can't so easily be done. In shrink_folio_list(), there are actually three cases (something different is done for incompletely invalidated buffers), but filemap_release_folio() elides two of them. In shrink_active_list(), we don't have have the folio lock yet, so the check allows us to avoid locking the page unnecessarily. A wrapper function to check if a folio needs release is provided for those places that still need to do it in the mm/ directory. This will acquire additional parts to the condition in a future patch. After this, the only remaining caller of folio_has_private() outside of mm/ is a check in fuse.

mm/folio: avoid special handling for order value 0 in folio_set_order
folio_set_order(folio, 0) is used in kernel at two places
__destroy_compound_gigantic_folio and __prep_compound_gigantic_folio.
Currently, It is called to clear out the folio->_folio_nr_pages and
folio->_folio_order.
For __destroy_compound_gigantic_folio:
In past, folio_set_order(folio, 0) was needed because page->mapping used
to overlap with _folio_nr_pages and _folio_order. So if these fields were
left uncleared during freeing gigantic hugepages, they were causing
"BUG: bad page state" due to non-zero page->mapping. Now, After

Use the vma iterator in the validation code and combine the code to check the maple tree into the main validate_mm() function. Introduce a new function vma_iter_dump_tree() to dump the maple tree in hex layout. Replace all calls to validate_mm_mt() with validate_mm().

x86/mm: Add early_memremap_pgprot_adjust() prototype
early_memremap_pgprot_adjust() is a __weak function with a local prototype, but x86 has a custom implementation that does not see the prototype, causing a W=1 warning: arch/x86/mm/ioremap.c:785:17: error: no previous prototype for 'early_memremap_pgprot_adjust' [-Werror=missing-prototypes] Move the declaration into the global linux/io.h header to avoid this.

mm: conditionally write-lock VMA in free_pgtables
Normally free_pgtables needs to lock affected VMAs except for the case when VMAs were isolated under VMA write-lock. munmap() does just that, isolating while holding appropriate locks and then downgrading mmap_lock and dropping per-VMA locks before freeing page tables. Add a parameter to free_pgtables for such scenario.
