When vma->anon_vma is not set, page fault handler will set it by either
reusing anon_vma of an adjacent VMA if VMAs are compatible or by
allocating a new one. find_mergeable_anon_vma() walks VMA tree to find a
compatible adjacent VMA and that requires not only the faulting VMA to be
stable but also the tree structure and other VMAs inside that tree.
Therefore locking just the faulting VMA is not enough for this search.
Fall back to taking mmap_lock when vma->anon_vma is not set. This
situation happens only on the first page fault and should not affect
overall performance.

Protect VMA from concurrent page fault handler while collapsing a huge
page. Page fault handler needs a stable PMD to use PTL and relies on
per-VMA lock to prevent concurrent PMD changes. pmdp_collapse_flush(),
set_huge_pmd() and collapse_and_free_pmd() can modify a PMD, which will
not be detected by a page fault handler without proper locking.
Before this patch, page tables can be walked under any one of the
mmap_lock, the mapping lock, and the anon_vma lock; so when khugepaged
unlinks and frees page tables, it must ensure that all of those either are
locked or don't exist. This patch adds a fourth lock under which page
tables can be traversed, and so khugepaged must also lock out that one.

Introduce per-VMA locking. The lock implementation relies on a per-vma
and per-mm sequence counters to note exclusive locking:
- read lock - (implemented by vma_start_read) requires the vma
(vm_lock_seq) and mm (mm_lock_seq) sequence counters to differ.
If they match then there must be a vma exclusive lock held somewhere.
- read unlock - (implemented by vma_end_read) is a trivial vma->lock
unlock.
- write lock - (vma_start_write) requires the mmap_lock to be held
exclusively and the current mm counter is assigned to the vma counter.
This will allow multiple vmas to be locked under a single mmap_lock
write lock (e.g. during vma merging). The vma counter is modified
under exclusive vma lock.
- write unlock - (vma_end_write_all) is a batch release of all vma
locks held. It doesn't pair with a specific vma_start_write! It is
done before exclusive mmap_lock is released by incrementing mm
sequence counter (mm_lock_seq).
- write downgrade - if the mmap_lock is downgraded to the read lock, all
vma write locks are released as well (effectivelly same as write
unlock).

Patch series "Per-VMA locks", v4.
LWN article describing the feature: https://lwn.net/Articles/906852/
Per-vma locks idea that was discussed during SPF [1] discussion at LSF/MM
last year [2], which concluded with suggestion that “a reader/writer
semaphore could be put into the VMA itself; that would have the effect of
using the VMA as a sort of range lock. There would still be contention at
the VMA level, but it would be an improvement.” This patchset implements
this suggested approach.
When handling page faults we lookup the VMA that contains the faulting
page under RCU protection and try to acquire its lock. If that fails we
fall back to using mmap_lock, similar to how SPF handled this situation.
One notable way the implementation deviates from the proposal is the way
VMAs are read-locked. During some of mm updates, multiple VMAs need to be
locked until the end of the update (e.g. vma_merge, split_vma, etc).
Tracking all the locked VMAs, avoiding recursive locks, figuring out when
it's safe to unlock previously locked VMAs would make the code more
complex. So, instead of the usual lock/unlock pattern, the proposed
solution marks a VMA as locked and provides an efficient way to:
1. Identify locked VMAs.
2. Unlock all locked VMAs in bulk.
We also postpone unlocking the locked VMAs until the end of the update,
when we do mmap_write_unlock. Potentially this keeps a VMA locked for
longer than is absolutely necessary but it results in a big reduction of
code complexity.
Read-locking a VMA is done using two sequence numbers - one in the
vm_area_struct and one in the mm_struct. VMA is considered read-locked
when these sequence numbers are equal. To read-lock a VMA we set the
sequence number in vm_area_struct to be equal to the sequence number in
mm_struct. To unlock all VMAs we increment mm_struct's seq number. This
allows for an efficient way to track locked VMAs and to drop the locks on
all VMAs at the end of the update.
The patchset implements per-VMA locking only for anonymous pages which are
not in swap and avoids userfaultfs as their implementation is more
complex. Additional support for file-back page faults, swapped and user
pages can be added incrementally.
Performance benchmarks show similar although slightly smaller benefits as
with SPF patchset (~75% of SPF benefits). Still, with lower complexity
this approach might be more desirable.
Since RFC was posted in September 2022, two separate Google teams outside
of Android evaluated the patchset and confirmed positive results. Here
are the known usecases when per-VMA locks show benefits:
Android:
Apps with high number of threads (~100) launch times improve by up to 20%.
Each thread mmaps several areas upon startup (Stack and Thread-local
storage (TLS), thread signal stack, indirect ref table), which requires
taking mmap_lock in write mode. Page faults take mmap_lock in read mode.
During app launch, both thread creation and page faults establishing the
active workinget are happening in parallel and that causes lock contention
between mm writers and readers even if updates and page faults are
happening in different VMAs. Per-vma locks prevent this contention by
providing more granular lock.
Google Fibers:
We have several dynamically sized thread pools that spawn new threads
under increased load and reduce their number when idling. For example,
Google's in-process scheduling/threading framework, UMCG/Fibers, is backed
by such a thread pool. When idling, only a small number of idle worker
threads are available; when a spike of incoming requests arrive, each
request is handled in its own "fiber", which is a work item posted onto a
UMCG worker thread; quite often these spikes lead to a number of new
threads spawning. Each new thread needs to allocate and register an RSEQ
section on its TLS, then register itself with the kernel as a UMCG worker
thread, and only after that it can be considered by the in-process
UMCG/Fiber scheduler as available to do useful work. In short, during an
incoming workload spike new threads have to be spawned, and they perform
several syscalls (RSEQ registration, UMCG worker registration, memory
allocations) before they can actually start doing useful work. Removing
any bottlenecks on this thread startup path will greatly improve our
services' latencies when faced with request/workload spikes.
At high scale, mmap_lock contention during thread creation and stack page
faults leads to user-visible multi-second serving latencies in a similar
pattern to Android app startup. Per-VMA locking patchset has been run
successfully in limited experiments with user-facing production workloads.
In these experiments, we observed that the peak thread creation rate was
high enough that thread creation is no longer a bottleneck.
TCP zerocopy receive:
From the point of view of TCP zerocopy receive, the per-vma lock patch is
massively beneficial.
In today's implementation, a process with N threads where N - 1 are
performing zerocopy receive and 1 thread is performing madvise() with the
write lock taken (e.g. needs to change vm_flags) will result in all N -1
receive threads blocking until the madvise is done. Conversely, on a busy
process receiving a lot of data, an madvise operation that does need to
take the mmap lock in write mode will need to wait for all of the receives
to be done - a lose:lose proposition. Per-VMA locking _removes_ by
definition this source of contention entirely.
There are other benefits for receive as well, chiefly a reduction in
cacheline bouncing across receiving threads for locking/unlocking the
single mmap lock. On an RPC style synthetic workload with 4KB RPCs:
1a) The find+lock+unlock VMA path in the base case, without the
per-vma lock patchset, is about 0.7% of cycles as measured by perf.
1b) mmap_read_lock + mmap_read_unlock in the base case is about 0.5%
cycles overall - most of this is within the TCP read hotpath (a small
fraction is 'other' usage in the system).
2a) The find+lock+unlock VMA path, with the per-vma patchset and a
trivial patch written to take advantage of it in TCP, is about 0.4% of
cycles (down from 0.7% above)
2b) mmap_read_lock + mmap_read_unlock in the per-vma patchset is <
0.1% cycles and is out of the TCP read hotpath entirely (down from
0.5% before, the remaining usage is the 'other' usage in the system).
So, in addition to entirely removing an onerous source of contention,
it also reduces the CPU cycles of TCP receive zerocopy by about 0.5%+
(compared to overall cycles in perf) for the 'small' RPC scenario.
In https://lkml.kernel.org/r/87fsaqouyd.fsf_-_@stealth, Punit
demonstrated throughput improvements of as much as 188% from this
patchset.
This patch (of 25):
This configuration variable will be used to build the support for VMA
locking during page fault handling.
This is enabled on supported architectures with SMP and MMU set.
The architecture support is needed since the page fault handler is called
from the architecture's page faulting code which needs modifications to
handle faults under VMA lock.

Previously, vma was an uninitialised variable which was only definitely
assigned as a result of the logic covering all possible input cases - for
it to have remained uninitialised, prev would have to be NULL, and next
would _have_ to be mergeable.
The value of res defaults to NULL, so we can neatly eliminate the
assignment to res and vma in the if (prev) block and ensure that both res
and vma are both explicitly assigned, by just setting both to prev.
In addition we add an explanation as to under what circumstances both
might change, and since we absolutely do rely on addr == curr->vm_start
should curr exist, assert that this is the case.

Patch series "further cleanup of vma_merge()", v2.
Following on from Vlastimil Babka's patch series "cleanup vma_merge() and
improve mergeability tests" which was in turn based on Liam's prior
cleanups, this patch series introduces changes discussed in review of
Vlastimil's series and goes further in attempting to make the logic as
clear as possible.
Nearly all of this should have absolutely no functional impact, however it
does add a singular VM_WARN_ON() case.
With many thanks to Vernon for helping kick start the discussion around
simplification - abstract use of vma did indeed turn out not to be
necessary - and to Liam for his excellent suggestions which greatly
simplified things.
This patch (of 4):
Previously the ASCII diagram above vma_merge() and the accompanying
variable naming was rather confusing, however recent efforts by Liam
Howlett and Vlastimil Babka have significantly improved matters.
This patch goes a little further - replacing 'X' with 'N' which feels a
lot more natural and replacing what was 'N' with 'C' which stands for
'concurrent' VMA.
No word quite describes a VMA that has coincident start as the input span,
concurrent, abbreviated to 'curr' (and which can be thought of also as
'current') however fits intuitions well alongside prev and next.
This has no functional impact.

Having previously laid the foundation for converting vread() to an
iterator function, pull the trigger and do so.
This patch attempts to provide minimal refactoring and to reflect the
existing logic as best we can, for example we continue to zero portions of
memory not read, as before.
Overall, there should be no functional difference other than a performance
improvement in /proc/kcore access to vmalloc regions.
Now we have eliminated the need for a bounce buffer in read_kcore_iter(),
we dispense with it, and try to write to user memory optimistically but
with faults disabled via copy_page_to_iter_nofault(). We already have
preemption disabled by holding a spin lock. We continue faulting in until
the operation is complete.
Additionally, we must account for the fact that at any point a copy may
fail (most likely due to a fault not being able to occur), we exit
indicating fewer bytes retrieved than expected.

Patch series "Remove drm/ttm-specific mm changes".
Functionality was added specifically for the DRM TTM driver to support
mapping memory for VM_MIXEDMAP VMAs with customised protection flags,
however this has now been rolled back as issues were found with this
approach.
This series removes the mm changes too, retaining some of the useful
comments.
This patch (of 3):
The sole user of vmf_insert_mixed_prot(), the drm ttm module, stopped
using this in commit f91142c621 ("drm/ttm: nuke VM_MIXEDMAP on BO
mappings v3") citing use of VM_MIXEDMAP in this case being terribly
broken.
Remove this now-dead code and references to it, but retain the useful
description of the prot != vma->vm_page_prot case, moving it to
vmf_insert_pfn_prot() instead.

Currently the memtest results were only presented in dmesg.
When running a large fleet of devices without ECC RAM it's currently not
easy to do bulk monitoring for memory corruption. You have to parse
dmesg, but that's a ring buffer so the error might disappear after some
time. In general I do not consider dmesg to be a great API to query RAM
status.
In several companies I've seen such errors remain undetected and cause
issues for way too long. So I think it makes sense to provide a
monitoring API, so that we can safely detect and act upon them.
This adds /proc/meminfo entry which can be easily used by scripts.

Patch series "Refactor do_fault_around()"
Refactor do_fault_around() to avoid bitwise tricks and rather difficult to
follow logic. Additionally, prefer fault_around_pages to
fault_around_bytes as the operations are performed at a base page
granularity.
This patch (of 2):
The existing logic is confusing and fails to abstract a number of bitwise
tricks.
Use ALIGN_DOWN() to perform alignment, pte_index() to obtain a PTE index
and represent the address range using PTE offsets, which naturally make it
clear that the operation is intended to occur within only a single PTE and
prevent spanning of more than one page table.
We rely on the fact that fault_around_bytes will always be page-aligned,
at least one page in size, a power of two and that it will not exceed
PAGE_SIZE * PTRS_PER_PTE in size (i.e. the address space mapped by a
PTE). These are all guaranteed by fault_around_bytes_set().

When trying to isolate a migratable pageblock, it can contain several
normal pages or several hugetlb pages (e.g. CONT-PTE 64K hugetlb on arm64)
in a pageblock. That means we may hold the lru lock of a normal page to
continue to isolate the next hugetlb page by isolate_or_dissolve_huge_page()
in the same migratable pageblock.
However in the isolate_or_dissolve_huge_page(), it may allocate a new hugetlb
page and dissolve the old one by alloc_and_dissolve_hugetlb_folio() if the
hugetlb's refcount is zero. That means we can still enter the direct compaction
path to allocate a new hugetlb page under the current lru lock, which
may cause possible deadlock.
To avoid this possible deadlock, we should release the lru lock when
trying to isolate a hugetbl page. Moreover it does not make sense to take
the lru lock to isolate a hugetlb, which is not in the lru list.

commit b717d6b93b ("mm: compaction: include compound page count for
scanning in pageblock isolation") added compound page statistics for
scanning in pageblock isolation, to make sure the number of scanned pages
is always larger than the number of isolated pages when isolating
mirgratable or free pageblock.
However, when failing to isolate the pages when scanning the migratable or
free pageblocks, the isolation failure path did not consider the scanning
statistics of the compound pages, which result in showing the incorrect
number of scanned pages in tracepoints or in vmstats which will confuse
people about the page scanning pressure in memory compaction.
Thus we should take into account the number of scanning pages when failing
to isolate the compound pages to make the statistics accurate.

Since pre-git times, is_mergeable_vma() returns false for a vma with
vm_ops->close, so that no owner assumptions are violated in case the vma
is removed as part of the merge.
This check is currently very conservative and can prevent merging even
situations where vma can't be removed, such as simple expansion of
previous vma, as evidenced by commit d014cd7c1c ("mm, mremap: fix
mremap() expanding for vma's with vm_ops->close()")
In order to allow more merging when appropriate and simplify the code that
was made more complex by commit d014cd7c1c, start distinguishing cases
where the vma can be really removed, and allow merging with vm_ops->close
otherwise.
As a first step, add a may_remove_vma parameter to is_mergeable_vma().
can_vma_merge_before() sets it to true, because when called from
vma_merge(), a removal of the vma is possible.
In can_vma_merge_after(), pass the parameter as false, because no
removal can occur in each of its callers:
- vma_merge() calls it on the 'prev' vma, which is never removed
- mmap_region() and do_brk_flags() call it to determine if it can expand
a vma, which is not removed
As a result, vma's with vm_ops->close may now merge with compatible ranges
in more situations than previously. We can also revert commit
d014cd7c1c as the next step to simplify mremap code again.

have to use 'mid' explicitly, which should also make the intent more
obvious.
Adjust the diagram for cases 1-3 in the comment to match the code - we are
using 'next' for case 3 so mark the range with XXXX instead of NNNN. For
case 2 that's a no-op as the code doesn't touch 'next' or 'mid'. For case
1 it's now wrong but that will be fixed next.
No functional change.

Patch series "cleanup vma_merge() and improve mergeability tests".
My initial goal here was to try making the check for vm_ops->close in
is_mergeable_vma() only be applied for vma's that would be truly removed
as part of the merge (see Patch 9). This would then allow reverting the
quick fix d014cd7c1c ("mm, mremap: fix mremap() expanding for vma's with
vm_ops->close()"). This was successful enough to allow the revert (Patch
10). Checks using can_vma_merge_before() are still pessimistic about
possible vma removal, and making them precise would probably complicate
the vma_merge() code too much.
Liam's 6.3-rc1 simplification of vma_merge() and removal of __vma_adjust()
was very much helpful in understanding the vma_merge() implementation and
especially when vma removals can happen, which is now very obvious. While
studing the code, I've found ways to make it hopefully even more easy to
follow, so that's the patches 1-8. That made me also notice a bug that's
now already fixed in 6.3-rc1.
This patch (of 10):
In the merging preparation part of vma_merge(), some vma pointer variables
are assigned for later execution of the merge, but also read from in the
block itself. The code is easier follow and check against the cases
diagram in the comment if the code reads only from the "primary" vma
variables prev, mid, next instead. No functional change.

UFFDIO_COPY already has UFFDIO_COPY_MODE_WP, so when installing a new PTE
to resolve a missing fault, one can install a write-protected one. This
is useful when using UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_{MISSING,WP} in combination.
This was motivated by testing HugeTLB HGM [1], and in particular its
interaction with userfaultfd features. Existing userfaultfd code supports
using WP and MINOR modes together (i.e. you can register an area with
both enabled), but without this CONTINUE flag the combination is in
practice unusable.
So, add an analogous UFFDIO_CONTINUE_MODE_WP, which does the same thing as
UFFDIO_COPY_MODE_WP, but for *minor* faults.
Update the selftest to do some very basic exercising of the new flag.
Update Documentation/ to describe how these flags are used (neither the
COPY nor the new CONTINUE versions of this mode flag were described there
before).

Many userfaultfd ioctl functions take both a 'mode' and a 'wp_copy'
argument. In future commits we plan to plumb the flags through to more
places, so we'd be proliferating the very long argument list even further.
Let's take the time to simplify the argument list. Combine the two
arguments into one - and generalize, so when we add more flags in the
future, it doesn't imply more function arguments.
Since the modes (copy, zeropage, continue) are mutually exclusive, store
them as an integer value (0, 1, 2) in the low bits. Place combine-able
flag bits in the high bits.
This is quite similar to an earlier patch proposed by Nadav Amit
("userfaultfd: introduce uffd_flags" [1]). The main difference is that
patch only handled flags, whereas this patch *also* combines the "mode"
argument into the same type to shorten the argument list.

Quite a few userfaultfd functions took both mm and vma pointers as
arguments. Since the mm is trivially accessible via vma->vm_mm, there's
no reason to pass both; it just needlessly extends the already long
argument list.
Get rid of the mm pointer, where possible, to shorten the argument list.

Patch series "mm: userfaultfd: refactor and add UFFDIO_CONTINUE_MODE_WP",
v5.
- Commits 1-3 refactor userfaultfd ioctl code without behavior changes, with the
main goal of improving consistency and reducing the number of function args.
- Commit 4 adds UFFDIO_CONTINUE_MODE_WP.
This patch (of 4):
The basic problem is, over time we've added new userfaultfd ioctls, and
we've refactored the code so functions which used to handle only one case
are now re-used to deal with several cases. While this happened, we
didn't bother to rename the functions.
Similarly, as we added new functions, we cargo-culted pieces of the
now-inconsistent naming scheme, so those functions too ended up with names
that don't make a lot of sense.
A key point here is, "copy" in most userfaultfd code refers specifically
to UFFDIO_COPY, where we allocate a new page and copy its contents from
userspace. There are many functions with "copy" in the name that don't
actually do this (at least in some cases).
So, rename things into a consistent scheme. The high level idea is that
the call stack for userfaultfd ioctls becomes:
userfaultfd_ioctl
-> userfaultfd_(particular ioctl)
-> mfill_atomic_(particular kind of fill operation)
-> mfill_atomic /* loops over pages in range */
-> mfill_atomic_pte /* deals with single pages */
-> mfill_atomic_pte_(particular kind of fill operation)
-> mfill_atomic_install_pte
There are of course some special cases (shmem, hugetlb), but this is the
general structure which all function names now adhere to.

Patch series "mm/uffd: Add feature bit UFFD_FEATURE_WP_UNPOPULATED", v4.
The new feature bit makes anonymous memory acts the same as file memory on
userfaultfd-wp in that it'll also wr-protect none ptes.
It can be useful in two cases:
(1) Uffd-wp app that needs to wr-protect none ptes like QEMU snapshot,
so pre-fault can be replaced by enabling this flag and speed up
protections
(2) It helps to implement async uffd-wp mode that Muhammad is working on [1]
It's debatable whether this is the most ideal solution because with the
new feature bit set, wr-protect none pte needs to pre-populate the
pgtables to the last level (PAGE_SIZE). But it seems fine so far to
service either purpose above, so we can leave optimizations for later.
The series brings pte markers to anonymous memory too. There's some
change in the common mm code path in the 1st patch, great to have some eye
looking at it, but hopefully they're still relatively straightforward.
This patch (of 2):
This is a new feature that controls how uffd-wp handles none ptes. When
it's set, the kernel will handle anonymous memory the same way as file
memory, by allowing the user to wr-protect unpopulated ptes.
File memories handles none ptes consistently by allowing wr-protecting of
none ptes because of the unawareness of page cache being exist or not.
For anonymous it was not as persistent because we used to assume that we
don't need protections on none ptes or known zero pages.
One use case of such a feature bit was VM live snapshot, where if without
wr-protecting empty ptes the snapshot can contain random rubbish in the
holes of the anonymous memory, which can cause misbehave of the guest when
the guest OS assumes the pages should be all zeros.
QEMU worked it around by pre-populate the section with reads to fill in
zero page entries before starting the whole snapshot process [1].
Recently there's another need raised on using userfaultfd wr-protect for
detecting dirty pages (to replace soft-dirty in some cases) [2]. In that
case if without being able to wr-protect none ptes by default, the dirty
info can get lost, since we cannot treat every none pte to be dirty (the
current design is identify a page dirty based on uffd-wp bit being
cleared).
In general, we want to be able to wr-protect empty ptes too even for
anonymous.
This patch implements UFFD_FEATURE_WP_UNPOPULATED so that it'll make
uffd-wp handling on none ptes being consistent no matter what the memory
type is underneath. It doesn't have any impact on file memories so far
because we already have pte markers taking care of that. So it only
affects anonymous.
The feature bit is by default off, so the old behavior will be maintained.
Sometimes it may be wanted because the wr-protect of none ptes will
contain overheads not only during UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT (by applying pte
markers to anonymous), but also on creating the pgtables to store the pte
markers. So there's potentially less chance of using thp on the first
fault for a none pmd or larger than a pmd.
The major implementation part is teaching the whole kernel to understand
pte markers even for anonymously mapped ranges, meanwhile allowing the
UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT ioctl to apply pte markers for anonymous too when the
new feature bit is set.
Note that even if the patch subject starts with mm/uffd, there're a few
small refactors to major mm path of handling anonymous page faults. But
they should be straightforward.
With WP_UNPOPUATED, application like QEMU can avoid pre-read faults all
the memory before wr-protect during taking a live snapshot. Quotting from
Muhammad's test result here [3] based on a simple program [4]:
(1) With huge page disabled
echo madvise > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled
./uffd_wp_perf
Test DEFAULT: 4
Test PRE-READ: 1111453 (pre-fault 1101011)
Test MADVISE: 278276 (pre-fault 266378)
Test WP-UNPOPULATE: 11712
(2) With Huge page enabled
echo always > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled
./uffd_wp_perf
Test DEFAULT: 4
Test PRE-READ: 22521 (pre-fault 22348)
Test MADVISE: 4909 (pre-fault 4743)
Test WP-UNPOPULATE: 14448
There'll be a great perf boost for no-thp case, while for thp enabled with
extreme case of all-thp-zero WP_UNPOPULATED can be slower than MADVISE,
but that's low possibility in reality, also the overhead was not reduced
but postponed until a follow up write on any huge zero thp, so potentially
it is faster by making the follow up writes slower.

KASAN suppresses reports for bad accesses done by the KASAN reporting
code. The reporting code might access poisoned memory for reporting
purposes.
Software KASAN modes do this by suppressing reports during reporting via
current->kasan_depth, the same way they suppress reports during accesses
to poisoned slab metadata.
Hardware Tag-Based KASAN does not use current->kasan_depth, and instead
resets pointer tags for accesses to poisoned memory done by the reporting
code.
Despite that, a recursive report can still happen:
1. On hardware with faulty MTE support. This was observed by Weizhao
Ouyang on a faulty hardware that caused memory tags to randomly change
from time to time.
2. Theoretically, due to a previous MTE-undetected memory corruption.
A recursive report can happen via:
1. Accessing a pointer with a non-reset tag in the reporting code, e.g.
slab->slab_cache, which is what Weizhao Ouyang observed.
2. Theoretically, via external non-annotated routines, e.g. stackdepot.
To resolve this issue, resetting tags for all of the pointers in the
reporting code and all the used external routines would be impractical.
Instead, disable tag checking done by the CPU for the duration of KASAN
reporting for Hardware Tag-Based KASAN.
Without this fix, Hardware Tag-Based KASAN reporting code might deadlock.

mm/kasan/kasan.h provides a number of empty defines for a few
arch-specific tagging-related routines, in case the architecture code
didn't define them.
The original idea was to simplify integration in case another architecture
starts supporting memory tagging. However, right now, if any of those
routines are not provided by an architecture, Hardware Tag-Based KASAN
won't work.
Drop the empty defines, as it would be better to get compiler errors
rather than runtime crashes when adding support for a new architecture.
Also drop empty hw_enable_tagging_sync/async/asymm defines for
!CONFIG_KASAN_HW_TAGS case, as those are only used in mm/kasan/hw_tags.c.

Instead of returning NULL for all errors, distinguish between:
- no entry found and not asked to allocated (-ENOENT)
- failed to allocate memory (-ENOMEM)
- would block (-EAGAIN)
so that callers don't have to guess the error based on the passed in
flags.
Also pass through the error through the direct callers: filemap_get_folio,
filemap_lock_folio filemap_grab_folio and filemap_get_incore_folio.

Use the very low level filemap_get_entry helper to look up the entry in

- don't bother locking the folio if only doing a userfault notification
- open code locking the page and checking for truncation in a related

This will allow to eventually remove the FGP_ENTRY flag.

Patch series "return an ERR_PTR from __filemap_get_folio", v3.
__filemap_get_folio and its wrappers can return NULL for three different
conditions, which in some cases requires the caller to reverse engineer
the decision making. This is fixed by returning an ERR_PTR instead of
NULL and thus transporting the reason for the failure. But to make
that work we first need to ensure that no xa_value special case is
returned and thus return the FGP_ENTRY flag. It turns out that flag
is barely used and can usually be deal with in a better way.
This patch (of 7):
split_huge_pages_in_file never wants to do anything with the special value
enties. Switch to using filemap_get_folio to not even see them.

The allocated dmapool pages are never freed for the lifetime of the pool.
There is no need for the two level list+stack lookup for finding a free
block since nothing is ever removed from the list. Just use a simple
stack, reducing time complexity to constant.
The implementation inserts the stack linking elements and the dma handle
of the block within itself when freed. This means the smallest possible
dmapool block is increased to at most 16 bytes to accommodate these
fields, but there are no exisiting users requesting a dma pool smaller
than that anyway.
Removing the list has a significant change in performance. Using the
kernel's micro-benchmarking self test:
Before:
# modprobe dmapool_test
dmapool test: size:16 blocks:8192 time:57282
dmapool test: size:64 blocks:8192 time:172562
dmapool test: size:256 blocks:8192 time:789247
dmapool test: size:1024 blocks:2048 time:371823
dmapool test: size:4096 blocks:1024 time:362237
After:
# modprobe dmapool_test
dmapool test: size:16 blocks:8192 time:24997
dmapool test: size:64 blocks:8192 time:26584
dmapool test: size:256 blocks:8192 time:33542
dmapool test: size:1024 blocks:2048 time:9022
dmapool test: size:4096 blocks:1024 time:6045
The module test allocates quite a few blocks that may not accurately
represent how these pools are used in real life. For a more marco level
benchmark, running fio high-depth + high-batched on nvme, this patch shows
submission and completion latency reduced by ~100usec each, 1% IOPs
improvement, and perf record's time spent in dma_pool_alloc/free were
reduced by half.

The si->lock must be held when deleting the si from the available list.
Otherwise, another thread can re-add the si to the available list, which
can lead to memory corruption. The only place we have found where this
happens is in the swapoff path. This case can be described as below:
core 0 core 1
swapoff
del_from_avail_list(si) waiting
try lock si->lock acquire swap_avail_lock
and re-add si into
swap_avail_head
acquire si->lock but missing si already being added again, and continuing
to clear SWP_WRITEOK, etc.
It can be easily found that a massive warning messages can be triggered
inside get_swap_pages() by some special cases, for example, we call
madvise(MADV_PAGEOUT) on blocks of touched memory concurrently, meanwhile,
run much swapon-swapoff operations (e.g. stress-ng-swap).
However, in the worst case, panic can be caused by the above scene. In
swapoff(), the memory used by si could be kept in swap_info[] after
turning off a swap. This means memory corruption will not be caused
immediately until allocated and reset for a new swap in the swapon path.
A panic message caused: (with CONFIG_PLIST_DEBUG enabled)

Device exclusive page table entries are used to prevent CPU access to a
page whilst it is being accessed from a device. Typically this is used to
implement atomic operations when the underlying bus does not support
atomic access. When a CPU thread encounters a device exclusive entry it
locks the page and restores the original entry after calling mmu notifiers
to signal drivers that exclusive access is no longer available.
The device exclusive entry holds a reference to the page making it safe to
access the struct page whilst the entry is present. However the fault
handling code does not hold the PTL when taking the page lock. This means
if there are multiple threads faulting concurrently on the device
exclusive entry one will remove the entry whilst others will wait on the
page lock without holding a reference.
This can lead to threads locking or waiting on a folio with a zero
refcount. Whilst mmap_lock prevents the pages getting freed via munmap()
they may still be freed by a migration. This leads to warnings such as
PAGE_FLAGS_CHECK_AT_FREE due to the page being locked when the refcount
drops to zero.
Fix this by trying to take a reference on the folio before locking it.
The code already checks the PTE under the PTL and aborts if the entry is
no longer there. It is also possible the folio has been unmapped, freed
and re-allocated allowing a reference to be taken on an unrelated folio.
This case is also detected by the PTE check and the folio is unlocked
without further changes.

This patch fixes an issue that a hugetlb uffd-wr-protected mapping can be
writable even with uffd-wp bit set. It only happens with hugetlb private
mappings, when someone firstly wr-protects a missing pte (which will
install a pte marker), then a write to the same page without any prior
access to the page.
Userfaultfd-wp trap for hugetlb was implemented in hugetlb_fault() before
reaching hugetlb_wp() to avoid taking more locks that userfault won't
need. However there's one CoW optimization path that can trigger
hugetlb_wp() inside hugetlb_no_page(), which will bypass the trap.
This patch skips hugetlb_wp() for CoW and retries the fault if uffd-wp bit
is detected. The new path will only trigger in the CoW optimization path
because generic hugetlb_fault() (e.g. when a present pte was
wr-protected) will resolve the uffd-wp bit already. Also make sure
anonymous UNSHARE won't be affected and can still be resolved, IOW only
skip CoW not CoR.
This patch will be needed for v5.19+ hence copy stable.

Use the maple tree in RCU mode for VMA tracking.
The maple tree tracks the stack and is able to update the pivot
(lower/upper boundary) in-place to allow the page fault handler to write
to the tree while holding just the mmap read lock. This is safe as the
writes to the stack have a guard VMA which ensures there will always be a
NULL in the direction of the growth and thus will only update a pivot.
It is possible, but not recommended, to have VMAs that grow up/down
without guard VMAs. syzbot has constructed a testcase which sets up a VMA
to grow and consume the empty space. Overwriting the entire NULL entry
causes the tree to be altered in a way that is not safe for concurrent
readers; the readers may see a node being rewritten or one that does not
match the maple state they are using.
Enabling RCU mode allows the concurrent readers to see a stable node and
will return the expected result.

A series by myself to remove CONFIG_SLOB:
The SLOB allocator was deprecated in 6.2 and there have been no
complaints so far so let's proceed with the removal.
Besides the code cleanup, the main immediate benefit will be allowing
kfree() family of function to work on kmem_cache_alloc() objects, which
was incompatible with SLOB. This includes kfree_rcu() which had no
kmem_cache_free_rcu() counterpart yet and now it shouldn't be necessary
anymore.
Otherwise it's all straightforward removal. After this series, 'git grep
slob' or 'git grep SLOB' will have 3 remaining relevant hits in non-mm
code:
- tomoyo - patch submitted and carried there, doesn't need to wait for
this series
- skbuff - patch to cleanup now-unnecessary #ifdefs will be posted to
netdev after this is merged, as requested to avoid conflicts
- ftrace ring_buffer - patch to remove obsolete comment is carried there
The rest of 'git grep SLOB' hits are false positives, or intentional
(CREDITS, and mm/Kconfig SLUB_TINY description to help those that will
happen to migrate later).
This will make it easier to free objects in situations when they can
come from either kmalloc() or kmem_cache_alloc(), and also allow
kfree_rcu() for freeing objects from kmem_cache_alloc().
For the SLAB and SLUB allocators this was always possible so with SLOB
gone, we can document it as supported.

Currently, the synchronize_shrinkers() is only used by TTM pool. It only
requires that no shrinkers run in parallel, and doesn't care about
registering and unregistering of shrinkers.
Since slab shrink is protected by SRCU, synchronize_srcu() is sufficient
to ensure that no shrinker is running in parallel. So the shrinker_rwsem
in synchronize_shrinkers() is no longer needed, just remove it.

For now, reparent_shrinker_deferred() is the only holder of read lock of
shrinker_rwsem. And it already holds the global cgroup_mutex, so it will
not be called in parallel.
Therefore, in order to convert shrinker_rwsem to shrinker_mutex later,
here we change to hold the write lock of shrinker_rwsem to reparent.

After we make slab shrink lockless with SRCU, the longest sleep
unregister_shrinker() will be a sleep waiting for all do_shrink_slab()
calls.
To avoid long unbreakable action in the unregister_shrinker(), add
shrinker_srcu_generation to restore a check similar to the
rwsem_is_contendent() check that we had before.
And for memcg slab shrink, we unlock SRCU and continue iterations from the
next shrinker id.

Then we can use the following perf command to view hotspots:

We can see that IPC drops very seriously when calling

The shrinker_rwsem is a global read-write lock in shrinkers subsystem,
which protects most operations such as slab shrink, registration and
unregistration of shrinkers, etc. This can easily cause problems in the
following cases.
1) When the memory pressure is high and there are many
filesystems mounted or unmounted at the same time,
slab shrink will be affected (down_read_trylock()
failed).
Such as the real workload mentioned by Kirill Tkhai:
```
One of the real workloads from my experience is start
of an overcommitted node containing many starting
containers after node crash (or many resuming containers
after reboot for kernel update). In these cases memory
pressure is huge, and the node goes round in long reclaim.
```
2) If a shrinker is blocked (such as the case mentioned
in [1]) and a writer comes in (such as mount a fs),
then this writer will be blocked and cause all
subsequent shrinker-related operations to be blocked.
Even if there is no competitor when shrinking slab, there may still be a
problem. If we have a long shrinker list and we do not reclaim enough
memory with each shrinker, then the down_read_trylock() may be called with
high frequency. Because of the poor multicore scalability of atomic
operations, this can lead to a significant drop in IPC (instructions per
cycle).
So many times in history ([2],[3],[4],[5]), some people wanted to replace
shrinker_rwsem trylock with SRCU in the slab shrink, but all these patches
were abandoned because SRCU was not unconditionally enabled.
But now, since commit 1cd0bd06093c ("rcu: Remove CONFIG_SRCU"), the SRCU
is unconditionally enabled. So it's time to use SRCU to protect readers
who previously held shrinker_rwsem.
This commit uses SRCU to make global slab shrink lockless,
the memcg slab shrink is handled in the subsequent patch.

Patch series "make slab shrink lockless", v5.
This patch series aims to make slab shrink lockless.
1. Background
=============
On our servers, we often find the following system cpu hotspots:
52.22% [kernel] [k] down_read_trylock
19.60% [kernel] [k] up_read
8.86% [kernel] [k] shrink_slab
2.44% [kernel] [k] idr_find
1.25% [kernel] [k] count_shadow_nodes
1.18% [kernel] [k] shrink lruvec
0.71% [kernel] [k] mem_cgroup_iter
0.71% [kernel] [k] shrink_node
0.55% [kernel] [k] find_next_bit
And we used bpftrace to capture its calltrace as follows:

We can see that down_read_trylock() of shrinker_rwsem is being called with
high frequency at that time. Because of the poor multicore scalability of
atomic operations, this can lead to a significant drop in IPC
(instructions per cycle).
And more, the shrinker_rwsem is a global read-write lock in shrinkers
subsystem, which protects most operations such as slab shrink,
registration and unregistration of shrinkers, etc. This can easily cause
problems in the following cases.
1) When the memory pressure is high and there are many filesystems
mounted or unmounted at the same time, slab shrink will be affected
(down_read_trylock() failed).
Such as the real workload mentioned by Kirill Tkhai:
```
One of the real workloads from my experience is start of an
overcommitted node containing many starting containers after node crash
(or many resuming containers after reboot for kernel update). In these
cases memory pressure is huge, and the node goes round in long reclaim.
```
2) If a shrinker is blocked (such as the case mentioned in [1]) and a
writer comes in (such as mount a fs), then this writer will be blocked
and cause all subsequent shrinker-related operations to be blocked.
[1]. https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20191129214541.3110-1-ptikhomirov@virtuozzo.com/
All the above cases can be solved by replacing the shrinker_rwsem trylocks
with SRCU.
2. Survey
=========
Before doing the code implementation, I found that there were many similar
submissions in the community:
a. Davidlohr Bueso submitted a patch in 2015.
Subject: [PATCH -next v2] mm: srcu-ify shrinkers
Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/1437080113.3596.2.camel@stgolabs.net/
Result: It was finally merged into the linux-next branch,
but failed on arm allnoconfig (without CONFIG_SRCU)
b. Tetsuo Handa submitted a patchset in 2017.
Subject: [PATCH 1/2] mm,vmscan: Kill global shrinker lock.
Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/1510609063-3327-1-git-send-email-penguin-kernel@I-love.SAKURA.ne.jp/
Result: Finally chose to use the current simple way (break
when rwsem_is_contended()). And Christoph Hellwig suggested to
using SRCU, but SRCU was not unconditionally enabled at the
time.
c. Kirill Tkhai submitted a patchset in 2018.
Subject: [PATCH RFC 00/10] Introduce lockless shrink_slab()
Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/153365347929.19074.12509495712735843805.stgit@localhost.localdomain/
Result: At that time, SRCU was not unconditionally enabled,
and there were some objections to enabling SRCU. Later,
because Kirill's focus was moved to other things, this patchset
was not continued to be updated.
d. Sultan Alsawaf submitted a patch in 2021.
Subject: [PATCH] mm: vmscan: Replace shrinker_rwsem trylocks with SRCU protection
Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210927074823.5825-1-sultan@kerneltoast.com/
Result: Rejected because SRCU was not unconditionally enabled.
We can find that almost all these historical commits were abandoned
because SRCU was not unconditionally enabled. But now SRCU has been
unconditionally enable by Paul E. McKenney in 2023 [2], so it's time to
replace shrinker_rwsem trylocks with SRCU.

Code inspection reveals that PG_skip_kasan_poison is redundant with
kasantag, because the former is intended to be set iff the latter is the
match-all tag. It can also be observed that it's basically pointless to
poison pages which have kasantag=0, because any pages with this tag would
have been pointed to by pointers with match-all tags, so poisoning the
pages would have little to no effect in terms of bug detection.
Therefore, change the condition in should_skip_kasan_poison() to check
kasantag instead, and remove PG_skip_kasan_poison and associated flags.

In doing experimentations with shmem having the option to avoid swap
becomes a useful mechanism. One of the *raves* about brd over shmem is
you can avoid swap, but that's not really a good reason to use brd if we
can instead use shmem. Using brd has its own good reasons to exist, but
just because "tmpfs" doesn't let you do that is not a great reason to
avoid it if we can easily add support for it.
I don't add support for reconfiguring incompatible options, but if we
really wanted to we can add support for that.
To avoid swap we use mapping_set_unevictable() upon inode creation, and
put a WARN_ON_ONCE() stop-gap on writepages() for reclaim.

In theory when info->flags & VM_LOCKED we should not be getting
shem_writepage() called so we should be verifying this with a
WARN_ON_ONCE(). Since we should not be swapping then best to ensure we
also don't do the folio split earlier too. So just move the check early
to avoid folio splits in case its a dubious call.
We also have a similar early bail when !total_swap_pages so just move that
earlier to avoid the possible folio split in the same situation.

i915_gem requires huge folios to be split when swapping. However we have
check for usage of writepages() to ensure it used only for swap purposes
later. Avoid the splits if we're not being called for reclaim, even if
they should in theory not happen.
This makes the conditions easier to follow on shem_writepage().

shmem_writepage() sets up variables typically used *after* a possible huge
page split. However even if that does happen the address space mapping
should not change, and the inode does not change either. So it should be
safe to set that from the very beginning.
This commit makes no functional changes.

Patch series "tmpfs: add the option to disable swap", v2.
I'm doing this work as part of future experimentation with tmpfs and the
page cache, but given a common complaint found about tmpfs is the
innability to work without the page cache I figured this might be useful
to others. It turns out it is -- at least Christian Brauner indicates
systemd uses ramfs for a few use-cases because they don't want to use swap
and so having this option would let them move over to using tmpfs for
those small use cases, see systemd-creds(1).
To see if you hit swap:
mkswap /dev/nvme2n1
swapon /dev/nvme2n1
free -h
With swap - what we see today
=============================
mount -t tmpfs -o size=5G tmpfs /data-tmpfs/
dd if=/dev/urandom of=/data-tmpfs/5g-rand2 bs=1G count=5
free -h

Mem: 3.7Gi 2.6Gi 1.2Gi 2.2Gi 2.2Gi 1.2Gi
Swap: 99Gi 2.8Gi 97Gi
Without swap
=============
free -h
total used free shared buff/cache available
Mem: 3.7Gi 387Mi 3.4Gi 2.1Mi 57Mi 3.3Gi
Swap: 99Gi 0B 99Gi

The mix and match remount testing
=================================
# Cannot disable swap after it was first enabled:

This patch (of 6):
Matthew notes we should not need to check the folio lock on the
writepage() callback so remove it. This sanity check has been lingering
since linux-history days. We remove this as we tidy up the writepage()
callback to make things a bit clearer.

The last remaining user of folio_write_one through the write_one_page
wrapper is jfs, so move the functionality there and hard code the call to
metapage_writepage.
Note that the use of the pagecache by the JFS 'metapage' buffer cache is a
bit odd, and we could probably do without VM-level dirty tracking at all,
but that's a change for another time.

Patch series "mm, memcg: cgroup v1 and v2 tunable load/store tearing
fixes", v2.
This patch series helps to prevent load/store tearing in
several cgroup knobs.
As kindly pointed out by Michal Hocko and Roman Gushchin
, the changelog has been rephrased.
Besides, more knobs were checked, according to kind suggestions
from Shakeel Butt and Muchun Song.
This patch (of 4):
The knob for cgroup v2 memory controller: memory.oom.group
is not protected by any locking so it can be modified while it is used.
This is not an actual problem because races are unlikely (the knob is
usually configured long before any workloads hits actual memcg oom)
but it is better to use READ_ONCE/WRITE_ONCE to prevent compiler from
doing anything funky.
The access of memcg->oom_group is lockless, so it can be
concurrently set at the same time as we are trying to read it.

s390 can do more fine-grained handling of spurious TLB protection faults,
when there also is the PTE pointer available.
Therefore, pass on the PTE pointer to flush_tlb_fix_spurious_fault() as an
additional parameter.
This will add no functional change to other architectures, but those with
private flush_tlb_fix_spurious_fault() implementations need to be made
aware of the new parameter.

The zsmalloc compaction algorithm has the potential to waste some CPU
cycles, particularly when compacting pages within the same fullness group.
This is due to the way it selects the head page of the fullness list for
source and destination pages, and how it reinserts those pages during each
iteration. The algorithm may first use a page as a migration destination
and then as a migration source, leading to an unnecessary back-and-forth
movement of objects.
Consider the following fullness list:
PageA PageB PageC PageD PageE
During the first iteration, the compaction algorithm will select PageA as
the source and PageB as the destination. All of PageA's objects will be
moved to PageB, and then PageA will be released while PageB is reinserted
into the fullness list.
PageB PageC PageD PageE
During the next iteration, the compaction algorithm will again select the
head of the list as the source and destination, meaning that PageB will
now serve as the source and PageC as the destination. This will result in
the objects being moved away from PageB, the same objects that were just
moved to PageB in the previous iteration.
To prevent this avalanche effect, the compaction algorithm should not
reinsert the destination page between iterations. By doing so, the most
optimal page will continue to be used and its usage ratio will increase,
reducing internal fragmentation. The destination page should only be
reinserted into the fullness list if:
- It becomes full
- No source page is available.
TEST
====
It's very challenging to reliably test this series. I ended up developing
my own synthetic test that has 100% reproducibility. The test generates
significan fragmentation (for each size class) and then performs
compaction for each class individually and tracks the number of memcpy()
in zs_object_copy(), so that we can compare the amount work compaction
does on per-class basis.
Total amount of work (zram mm_stat objs_moved)

Old fullness grouping, old compaction algorithm:
323977 memcpy() in zs_object_copy().

Each zspage maintains ->inuse counter which keeps track of the number of
objects stored in the zspage. The ->inuse counter also determines the
zspage's "fullness group" which is calculated as the ratio of the "inuse"
objects to the total number of objects the zspage can hold
(objs_per_zspage). The closer the ->inuse counter is to objs_per_zspage,
the better.
Each size class maintains several fullness lists, that keep track of
zspages of particular "fullness". Pages within each fullness list are
stored in random order with regard to the ->inuse counter. This is
because sorting the zspages by ->inuse counter each time obj_malloc() or
obj_free() is called would be too expensive. However, the ->inuse counter
is still a crucial factor in many situations.
For the two major zsmalloc operations, zs_malloc() and zs_compact(), we
typically select the head zspage from the corresponding fullness list as
the best candidate zspage. However, this assumption is not always
accurate.
For the zs_malloc() operation, the optimal candidate zspage should have
the highest ->inuse counter. This is because the goal is to maximize the
number of ZS_FULL zspages and make full use of all allocated memory.
For the zs_compact() operation, the optimal source zspage should have the
lowest ->inuse counter. This is because compaction needs to move objects
in use to another page before it can release the zspage and return its
physical pages to the buddy allocator. The fewer objects in use, the
quicker compaction can release the zspage. Additionally, compaction is
measured by the number of pages it releases.
This patch reworks the fullness grouping mechanism. Instead of having two
groups - ZS_ALMOST_EMPTY (usage ratio below 3/4) and ZS_ALMOST_FULL (usage
ration above 3/4) - that result in too many zspages being included in the
ALMOST_EMPTY group for specific classes, size classes maintain a larger
number of fullness lists that give strict guarantees on the minimum and
maximum ->inuse values within each group. Each group represents a 10%
change in the ->inuse ratio compared to neighboring groups. In essence,
there are groups for zspages with 0%, 10%, 20% usage ratios, and so on, up
to 100%.
This enhances the selection of candidate zspages for both zs_malloc() and
zs_compact(). A printout of the ->inuse counters of the first 7 zspages
per (random) class fullness group:
class-768 objs_per_zspage 16:
fullness 100%: empty
fullness 99%: empty
fullness 90%: empty
fullness 80%: empty
fullness 70%: empty
fullness 60%: 8 8 9 9 8 8 8
fullness 50%: empty
fullness 40%: 5 5 6 5 5 5 5
fullness 30%: 4 4 4 4 4 4 4
fullness 20%: 2 3 2 3 3 2 2
fullness 10%: 1 1 1 1 1 1 1
fullness 0%: empty
The zs_malloc() function searches through the groups of pages starting
with the one having the highest usage ratio. This means that it always
selects a zspage from the group with the least internal fragmentation
(highest usage ratio) and makes it even less fragmented by increasing its
usage ratio.
The zs_compact() function, on the other hand, begins by scanning the group
with the highest fragmentation (lowest usage ratio) to locate the source
page. The first available zspage is selected, and then the function moves
downward to find a destination zspage in the group with the lowest
internal fragmentation (highest usage ratio).

Patch series "zsmalloc: fine-grained fullness and new compaction
algorithm", v4.
Existing zsmalloc page fullness grouping leads to suboptimal page
selection for both zs_malloc() and zs_compact(). This patchset reworks
zsmalloc fullness grouping/classification.
Additinally it also implements new compaction algorithm that is expected
to use less CPU-cycles (as it potentially does fewer memcpy-s in
zs_object_copy()).
Test (synthetic) results can be seen in patch 0003.
This patch (of 4):
This optimization has no effect. It only ensures that when a zspage was
added to its corresponding fullness list, its "inuse" counter was higher
or lower than the "inuse" counter of the zspage at the head of the list.
The intention was to keep busy zspages at the head, so they could be
filled up and moved to the ZS_FULL fullness group more quickly. However,
this doesn't work as the "inuse" counter of a zspage can be modified by
obj_free() but the zspage may still belong to the same fullness list. So,
fix_fullness_group() won't change the zspage's position in relation to the
head's "inuse" counter, leading to a largely random order of zspages
within the fullness list.
For instance, consider a printout of the "inuse" counters of the first 10
zspages in a class that holds 93 objects per zspage:
ZS_ALMOST_EMPTY: 36 67 68 64 35 54 63 52
As we can see the zspage with the lowest "inuse" counter
is actually the head of the fullness list.
Remove this pointless "optimisation".

commit 5478afc55a ("kmsan: fix memcpy tests") uses OPTIMIZER_HIDE_VAR()
to hide the uninitialized var from the compiler optimizations.
However OPTIMIZER_HIDE_VAR(uninit) enforces an immediate check of @uninit,
so memcpy tests did not actually check the behavior of memcpy(), because
they always contained a KMSAN report.
Replace OPTIMIZER_HIDE_VAR() with a file-local macro that just clobbers
the memory with a barrier(), and add a test case for memcpy() that does
not expect an error report.
Also reflow kmsan_test.c with clang-format.

introduce %pGt format.
It is important to note the meaning of bits are different in page_type.
if page_type is 0xffffffff, no flags are set. Setting PG_buddy
(0x00000080) flag results in a page_type of 0xffffff7f. Clearing a bit
actually means setting a flag. Bits in page_type are inverted when
displaying type names.
Only values for which page_type_has_type() returns true are considered as
page_type, to avoid confusion with mapcount values. if it returns false,
only raw values are displayed and not page type names.

The worst-case scenario on finding same element pages is that almost all
elements are same at the first glance but only last few elements are
different.
Since the same element tends to be grouped from the beginning of the
pages, if we check the first element with the last element before looping
through all elements, we might have some chances to quickly detect
non-same element pages.
1. Test is done under LG webOS TV (64-bit arch)
2. Dump the swap-out pages (~819200 pages)
3. Analyze the pages with simple test script which counts the iteration
number and measures the speed at off-line
Under 64-bit arch, the worst iteration count is PAGE_SIZE / 8 bytes = 512.
The speed is based on the time to consume page_same_filled() function
only. The result, on average, is listed as below:
Num of Iter Speed(MB/s)
Looping-Forward (Orig) 38 99265
Looping-Backward 36 102725
Last-element-check (This Patch) 33 125072
The result shows that the average iteration count decreases by 13% and the
speed increases by 25% with this patch. This patch does not increase the
overall time complexity, though.
I also ran simpler version which uses backward loop. Just looping
backward also makes some improvement, but less than this patch.
A similar change has already been made to zram in 90f82cbfe5 ("zram: try
to avoid worst-case scenario on same element pages").

Syzbot reports a warning in untrack_pfn(). Digging into the root we found
that this is due to memory allocation failure in pmd_alloc_one. And this

In copy_page_range(), memory alloaction for pmd failed. During the error
handling process in copy_page_range(), mmput() is called to remove all
vmas. While untrack_pfn this empty pfn, warning happens.
Here's a simplified flow:
dup_mm
dup_mmap
copy_page_range
copy_p4d_range
copy_pud_range
copy_pmd_range
pmd_alloc
__pmd_alloc
pmd_alloc_one
page = alloc_pages(gfp, 0);
if (!page)
return NULL;
mmput
exit_mmap
unmap_vmas
unmap_single_vma
untrack_pfn
follow_phys
WARN_ON_ONCE(1);
Since this vma is not generate successfully, we can clear flag VM_PAT. In
this case, untrack_pfn() will not be called while cleaning this vma.
Function untrack_pfn_moved() has also been renamed to fit the new logic.

which we are trying to fix:
- Allocate memory of size 16 pages with PROT_NONE with mmap
- Register userfaultfd
- Change protection of the first half (1 to 8 pages) of memory to
PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE. This breaks the memory area in two VMAs.
- Now UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT_MODE_WP on the whole memory of 16 pages errors
out.
This is a simple use case where user may or may not know if the memory
area has been divided into multiple VMAs.
We need an implementation which doesn't disrupt the already present users.
So keeping things simple, stop going over all the VMAs if any one of the
VMA hasn't been registered in WP mode. While at it, remove the un-needed
error check as well.

Historically, we have performed sanity checks on all struct pages being
allocated or freed, making sure they have no unexpected page flags or
certain field values. This can detect insufficient cleanup and some cases
of use-after-free, although on its own it can't always identify the
culprit. The result is a warning and the "bad page" being leaked.
The checks do need some cpu cycles, so in 4.7 with commits 479f854a20
("mm, page_alloc: defer debugging checks of pages allocated from the PCP")
and 4db7548ccb ("mm, page_alloc: defer debugging checks of freed pages
until a PCP drain") they were no longer performed in the hot paths when
allocating and freeing from pcplists, but only when pcplists are bypassed,
refilled or drained. For debugging purposes, with CONFIG_DEBUG_VM enabled
the checks were instead still done in the hot paths and not when refilling
or draining pcplists.
With 4462b32c92 ("mm, page_alloc: more extensive free page checking with
debug_pagealloc"), enabling debug_pagealloc also moved the sanity checks
back to hot pahs. When both debug_pagealloc and CONFIG_DEBUG_VM are
enabled, the checks are done both in hotpaths and pcplist refill/drain.
Even though the non-debug default today might seem to be a sensible
tradeoff between overhead and ability to detect bad pages, on closer look
it's arguably not. As most allocations go through the pcplists, catching
any bad pages when refilling or draining pcplists has only a small chance,
insufficient for debugging or serious hardening purposes. On the other
hand the cost of the checks is concentrated in the already expensive
drain/refill batching operations, and those are done under the often
contended zone lock. That was recently identified as an issue for page
allocation and the zone lock contention reduced by moving the checks
outside of the locked section with a patch "mm: reduce lock contention of
pcp buffer refill", but the cost of the checks is still visible compared
to their removal [1]. In the pcplist draining path free_pcppages_bulk()
the checks are still done under zone->lock.
Thus, remove the checks from pcplist refill and drain paths completely.
Introduce a static key check_pages_enabled to control checks during page
allocation a freeing (whether pcplist is used or bypassed). The static
key is enabled if either is true:
- kernel is built with CONFIG_DEBUG_VM=y (debugging)
- debug_pagealloc or page poisoning is boot-time enabled (debugging)
- init_on_alloc or init_on_free is boot-time enabled (hardening)
The resulting user visible changes:
- no checks when draining/refilling pcplists - less overhead, with
likely no practical reduction of ability to catch bad pages
- no checks when bypassing pcplists in default config (no
debugging/hardening) - less overhead etc. as above
- on typical hardened kernels [2], checks are now performed on each page
allocation/free (previously only when bypassing/draining/refilling
pcplists) - the init_on_alloc/init_on_free enabled should be sufficient
indication for preferring more costly alloc/free operations for
hardening purposes and we shouldn't need to introduce another toggle
- code (various wrappers) removal and simplification

rmqueue_bulk() batches the allocation of multiple elements to refill the
per-CPU buffers into a single hold of the zone lock. Each element is
allocated and checked using check_pcp_refill(). The check touches every
related struct page which is especially expensive for higher order
allocations (huge pages).
This patch reduces the time holding the lock by moving the check out of
the critical section similar to rmqueue_buddy() which allocates a single
element.
Measurements of parallel allocation-heavy workloads show a reduction of
the average huge page allocation latency of 50 percent for two cores and
nearly 90 percent for 24 cores.

If memory charge failed, instead of returning the hpage but with an error,
allow the function to cleanup the folio properly, which is normally what a
function should do in this case - either return successfully, or return
with no side effect of partial runs with an indicated error.
This will also avoid the caller calling mem_cgroup_uncharge()
unnecessarily with either anon or shmem path (even if it's safe to do so).

The struct pages could be discontiguous when the kfence pool is allocated
via alloc_contig_pages() with CONFIG_SPARSEMEM and
!CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP.
This may result in setting PG_slab and memcg_data to a arbitrary
address (may be not used as a struct page), which in the worst case
might corrupt the kernel.
So the iteration should use nth_page().

Kfence only needs its pool to be mapped as page granularity, if it is
inited early. Previous judgement was a bit over protected. From [1], Mark
suggested to "just map the KFENCE region a page granularity". So I
decouple it from judgement and do page granularity mapping for kfence
pool only. Need to be noticed that late init of kfence pool still requires
page granularity mapping.
Page granularity mapping in theory cost more(2M per 1GB) memory on arm64
platform. Like what I've tested on QEMU(emulated 1GB RAM) with
gki_defconfig, also turning off rodata protection:
Before:
[root@liebao ]# cat /proc/meminfo
MemTotal: 999484 kB
After:
[root@liebao ]# cat /proc/meminfo
MemTotal: 1001480 kB
To implement this, also relocate the kfence pool allocation before the
linear mapping setting up, arm64_kfence_alloc_pool is to allocate phys
addr, __kfence_pool is to be set after linear mapping set up.

This is because `-g` defaults to the compiler debug info default. If the

All the test wants is that stack traces print valid function names, and
debug info is not required for that. (I currently cannot recall why I

This reverts commit 487a32ec24.
should_skip_kasan_poison() reads the PG_skip_kasan_poison flag from
page->flags. However, this line of code in free_pages_prepare():
page->flags &= ~PAGE_FLAGS_CHECK_AT_PREP;
clears most of page->flags, including PG_skip_kasan_poison, before calling
should_skip_kasan_poison(), which meant that it would never return true as
a result of the page flag being set. Therefore, fix the code to call
should_skip_kasan_poison() before clearing the flags, as we were doing
before the reverted patch.
This fixes a measurable performance regression introduced in the reverted
commit, where munmap() takes longer than intended if HW tags KASAN is
supported and enabled at runtime. Without this patch, we see a
single-digit percentage performance regression in a particular
mmap()-heavy benchmark when enabling HW tags KASAN, and with the patch,
there is no statistically significant performance impact when enabling HW
tags KASAN.

in write mode. Ensure that the maple tree is still valid by checking
ksm_test_exit() after taking the mmap_lock in read mode, but before the
for_each_vma() iterator dereferences a destroyed maple tree.
Since the maple tree is destroyed, the flags telling lockdep to check an

it seems that I have completely missed high order allocation backing
vmalloc areas case when implementing __GFP_NOFAIL support. This means
that [k]vmalloc at al. can allocate higher order allocations with
__GFP_NOFAIL which can trigger OOM killer for non-costly orders easily or
cause a lot of reclaim/compaction activity if those requests cannot be
satisfied.
Fix the issue by falling back to zero order allocations for __GFP_NOFAIL
requests if the high order request fails.

untagged_addr() removes tags/metadata from the address and brings it to
the canonical form. The helper is implemented on arm64 and sparc. Both of
them do untagging based on global rules.
However, Linear Address Masking (LAM) on x86 introduces per-process
settings for untagging. As a result, untagged_addr() is now only
suitable for untagging addresses for the current proccess.
The new helper untagged_addr_remote() has to be used when the address
targets remote process. It requires the mmap lock for target mm to be

When we have locked more than one folios, we cannot wait the lock or bit
(e.g., page lock, buffer head lock, writeback bit) synchronously.
Otherwise deadlock may be triggered. This make it hard to batch the
synchronous migration directly.
This patch re-enables batching synchronous migration via trying to migrate
in batch asynchronously firstly. And any folios that are failed to be
migrated asynchronously will be migrated synchronously one by one.
Test shows that this can restore the TLB flushing batching performance for
synchronous migration effectively.

Patch series "migrate_pages: fix deadlock in batched synchronous
migration", v2.
Two deadlock bugs were reported for the migrate_pages() batching series.
Thanks Hugh and Pengfei. Analysis shows that if we have locked some other
folios except the one we are migrating, it's not safe in general to wait
synchronously, for example, to wait the writeback to complete or wait to
lock the buffer head.
So 1/3 fixes the deadlock in a simple way, where the batching support for
the synchronous migration is disabled. The change is straightforward and
easy to be understood. While 3/3 re-introduce the batching for
synchronous migration via trying to migrate asynchronously in batch
optimistically, then fall back to migrate synchronously one by one for
fail-to-migrate folios. Test shows that this can restore the TLB flushing
batching performance for synchronous migration effectively.
This patch (of 3):
Two deadlock bugs were reported for the migrate_pages() batching series.
Thanks Hugh and Pengfei! For example, in the following deadlock trace

</TASK>
The page migration task has held the lock of the shmem folio A, and is
waiting the writeback of the folio B of the file system on the loop block
device to complete. While the loop worker task which writes back the
folio B is waiting to lock the shmem folio A, because the folio A backs
the folio B in the loop device. Thus deadlock is triggered.
In general, if we have locked some other folios except the one we are
migrating, it's not safe to wait synchronously, for example, to wait the
writeback to complete or wait to lock the buffer head.
To fix the deadlock, in this patch, we avoid to batch the page migration
except for MIGRATE_ASYNC mode. In MIGRATE_ASYNC mode, synchronous waiting
is avoided.
The fix can be improved further. We will do that as soon as possible.

By checking huge_pte_none(), we incorrectly classify PTE markers as
"present". Instead, check huge_pte_none_mostly(), classifying PTE markers
the same as if the PTE were completely blank.
PTE markers, unlike other kinds of swap entries, don't reference any
physical page and don't indicate that a physical page was mapped
previously. As such, treat them as non-present for the sake of mincore().

The migration code ends up temporarily stashing information of the wrong
type in unused fields of the newly allocated destination folio. That
all works fine, but gcc does complain about the pointer type mis-use:
mm/migrate.c: In function ‘__migrate_folio_extract’:
mm/migrate.c:1050:20: note: randstruct: casting between randomized structure pointer types (ssa): ‘struct anon_vma’ and ‘struct address_space’
1050 | *anon_vmap = (void *)dst->mapping;
| ~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
and gcc is actually right to complain since it really doesn't understand
that this is a very temporary special case where this is ok.
This could be fixed in different ways by just obfuscating the assignment
sufficiently that gcc doesn't see what is going on, but the truly
"proper C" way to do this is by explicitly using a union.
Using unions for type conversions like this is normally hugely ugly and
syntactically nasty, but this really is one of the few cases where we
want to make it clear that we're not doing type conversion, we're really
re-using the value bit-for-bit just using another type.
IOW, this should not become a common pattern, but in this one case using
that odd union is probably the best way to document to the compiler what
is conceptually going on here.
[ Side note: there are valid cases where we convert pointers to other
pointer types, notably the whole "folio vs page" situation, where the
types actually have fundamental commonalities.
The fact that the gcc note is limited to just randomized structures
means that we don't see equivalent warnings for those cases, but it
migth also mean that we miss other cases where we do play these kinds
of dodgy games, and this kind of explicit conversion might be a good
idea. ]
I verified that at least for an allmodconfig build on x86-64, this
generates the exact same code, apart from line numbers and assembler
comment changes.

After a memory error happens on a clean folio, a process unexpectedly
receives SIGBUS when it accesses the error page. This SIGBUS killing is
pointless and simply degrades the level of RAS of the system, because the
clean folio can be dropped without any data lost on memory error handling
as we do for a clean pagecache.
When memory_failure() is called on a clean folio, try_to_unmap() is called
twice (one from split_huge_page() and one from hwpoison_user_mappings()).
The root cause of the issue is that pte conversion to hwpoisoned entry is
now done in the first call of try_to_unmap() because PageHWPoison is
already set at this point, while it's actually expected to be done in the
second call. This behavior disturbs the error handling operation like
removing pagecache, which results in the malfunction described above.
So convert TTU_IGNORE_HWPOISON into TTU_HWPOISON and set TTU_HWPOISON only
when we really intend to convert pte to hwpoison entry. This can prevent
other callers of try_to_unmap() from accidentally converting to hwpoison
entries.

damon_get_folio() would always increase folio _refcount and
folio_isolate_lru() would increase folio _refcount if the folio's lru flag
is set.
If an unevictable folio isolated successfully, there will be two more
_refcount. The one from folio_isolate_lru() will be decreased in
folio_puback_lru(), but the other one from damon_get_folio() will be left
behind. This causes a pin page.
Whatever the case, the _refcount from damon_get_folio() should be
decreased.

In case 4, we are shrinking 'prev' (PPPP in the comment) and expanding
'mid' (NNNN). So we need to make sure 'mid' clones the anon_vma from
'prev', if it doesn't have any. After commit 0503ea8f5b ("mm/mmap:

dup_anon_vma(). The call is a no-op because res == next, adjust == mid
and mid == next. Fix it.

of the kernel in the series "Simplify the external interface for
GUP".
- SeongJae Park wishes to migrate people from DAMON's debugfs interface
over to its sysfs interface. To support this, we'll temporarily be
printing warnings when people use the debugfs interface. See the
series "mm/damon: deprecate DAMON debugfs interface".
- Andrey Konovalov provided the accurately named "lib/stackdepot: fixes
and clean-ups" series.
- Huang Ying has provided a dramatic reduction in migration's TLB flush
IPI rates with the series "migrate_pages(): batch TLB flushing".
- Arnd Bergmann has some objtool fixups in "objtool warning fixes".

Merge tag '6.3-rc-smb3-client-fixes' of git://git.samba.org/sfrench/cifs-2.6
Pull cifs client updates from Steve French:
"The largest subset of this is from David Howells et al: making the
cifs/smb3 driver pass iov_iters down to the lowest layers, directly to
the network transport rather than passing lists of pages around,
helping multiple areas:
- Pin user pages, thereby fixing the race between concurrent DIO read
and fork, where the pages containing the DIO read buffer may end up
belonging to the child process and not the parent - with the result
that the parent might not see the retrieved data.
- cifs shouldn't take refs on pages extracted from non-user-backed
iterators (eg. KVEC). With these changes, cifs will apply the
appropriate cleanup.
- Making it easier to transition to using folios in cifs rather than
pages by dealing with them through BVEC and XARRAY iterators.
- Allowing cifs to use the new splice function
The remainder are:
- fixes for stable, including various fixes for uninitialized memory,
wrong length field causing mount issue to very old servers,
important directory lease fixes and reconnect fixes
- cleanups (unused code removal, change one element array usage, and
a change form strtobool to kstrtobool, and Kconfig cleanups)
- SMBDIRECT (RDMA) fixes including iov_iter integration and UAF fixes
- reconnect fixes
- multichannel fixes, including improving channel allocation (to
least used channel)
- remove the last use of lock_page_killable by moving to
folio_lock_killable"

...
Core
----
- Add dedicated kmem_cache for typical/small skb->head, avoid having
to access struct page at kfree time, and improve memory use.
- Introduce sysctl to set default RPS configuration for new netdevs.
- Define Netlink protocol specification format which can be used
to describe messages used by each family and auto-generate parsers.
Add tools for generating kernel data structures and uAPI headers.
- Expose all net/core sysctls inside netns.
- Remove 4s sleep in netpoll if carrier is instantly detected on boot.
- Add configurable limit of MDB entries per port, and port-vlan.
- Continue populating drop reasons throughout the stack.
- Retire a handful of legacy Qdiscs and classifiers.
Protocols
---------
- Support IPv4 big TCP (TSO frames larger than 64kB).
- Add IP_LOCAL_PORT_RANGE socket option, to control local port range
on socket by socket basis.
- Track and report in procfs number of MPTCP sockets used.
- Support mixing IPv4 and IPv6 flows in the in-kernel MPTCP
path manager.
- IPv6: don't check net.ipv6.route.max_size and rely on garbage
collection to free memory (similarly to IPv4).
- Support Penultimate Segment Pop (PSP) flavor in SRv6 (RFC8986).
- ICMP: add per-rate limit counters.
- Add support for user scanning requests in ieee802154.
- Remove static WEP support.
- Support minimal Wi-Fi 7 Extremely High Throughput (EHT) rate
reporting.
- WiFi 7 EHT channel puncturing support (client & AP).
BPF
---
- Add a rbtree data structure following the "next-gen data structure"
precedent set by recently added linked list, that is, by using
kfunc + kptr instead of adding a new BPF map type.
- Expose XDP hints via kfuncs with initial support for RX hash and
timestamp metadata.
- Add BPF_F_NO_TUNNEL_KEY extension to bpf_skb_set_tunnel_key
to better support decap on GRE tunnel devices not operating
in collect metadata.
- Improve x86 JIT's codegen for PROBE_MEM runtime error checks.
- Remove the need for trace_printk_lock for bpf_trace_printk
and bpf_trace_vprintk helpers.
- Extend libbpf's bpf_tracing.h support for tracing arguments of
kprobes/uprobes and syscall as a special case.
- Significantly reduce the search time for module symbols
by livepatch and BPF.
- Enable cpumasks to be used as kptrs, which is useful for tracing
programs tracking which tasks end up running on which CPUs in
different time intervals.
- Add support for BPF trampoline on s390x and riscv64.
- Add capability to export the XDP features supported by the NIC.
- Add __bpf_kfunc tag for marking kernel functions as kfuncs.
- Add cgroup.memory=nobpf kernel parameter option to disable BPF
memory accounting for container environments.
Netfilter
---------
- Remove the CLUSTERIP target. It has been marked as obsolete
for years, and we still have WARN splats wrt. races of
the out-of-band /proc interface installed by this target.
- Add 'destroy' commands to nf_tables. They are identical to
the existing 'delete' commands, but do not return an error if
the referenced object (set, chain, rule...) did not exist.
Driver API
----------
- Improve cpumask_local_spread() locality to help NICs set the right
IRQ affinity on AMD platforms.
- Separate C22 and C45 MDIO bus transactions more clearly.
- Introduce new DCB table to control DSCP rewrite on egress.
- Support configuration of Physical Layer Collision Avoidance (PLCA)
Reconciliation Sublayer (RS) (802.3cg-2019). Modern version of
shared medium Ethernet.
- Support for MAC Merge layer (IEEE 802.3-2018 clause 99). Allowing
preemption of low priority frames by high priority frames.
- Add support for controlling MACSec offload using netlink SET.
- Rework devlink instance refcounts to allow registration and
de-registration under the instance lock. Split the code into multiple
files, drop some of the unnecessarily granular locks and factor out
common parts of netlink operation handling.
- Add TX frame aggregation parameters (for USB drivers).
- Add a new attr TCA_EXT_WARN_MSG to report TC (offload) warning
messages with notifications for debug.
- Allow offloading of UDP NEW connections via act_ct.
- Add support for per action HW stats in TC.
- Support hardware miss to TC action (continue processing in SW from
a specific point in the action chain).
- Warn if old Wireless Extension user space interface is used with
modern cfg80211/mac80211 drivers. Do not support Wireless Extensions
for Wi-Fi 7 devices at all. Everyone should switch to using nl80211
interface instead.
- Improve the CAN bit timing configuration. Use extack to return error
messages directly to user space, update the SJW handling, including
the definition of a new default value that will benefit CAN-FD
controllers, by increasing their oscillator tolerance.

- Support for MAC Merge layer (IEEE 802.3-2018 clause 99). Allowing
preemption of low priority frames by high priority frames.
- Add support for controlling MACSec offload using netlink SET.
- Rework devlink instance refcounts to allow registration and
de-registration under the instance lock. Split the code into
multiple files, drop some of the unnecessarily granular locks and
factor out common parts of netlink operation handling.
- Add TX frame aggregation parameters (for USB drivers).
- Add a new attr TCA_EXT_WARN_MSG to report TC (offload) warning
messages with notifications for debug.
- Allow offloading of UDP NEW connections via act_ct.
- Add support for per action HW stats in TC.
- Support hardware miss to TC action (continue processing in SW from
a specific point in the action chain).
- Warn if old Wireless Extension user space interface is used with
modern cfg80211/mac80211 drivers. Do not support Wireless
Extensions for Wi-Fi 7 devices at all. Everyone should switch to
using nl80211 interface instead.
- Improve the CAN bit timing configuration. Use extack to return
error messages directly to user space, update the SJW handling,
including the definition of a new default value that will benefit
CAN-FD controllers, by increasing their oscillator tolerance.

Currently proc_dobool expects a (bool *) in table->data, but sizeof(int)
in table->maxsize, because it uses do_proc_dointvec() directly.
This is unsafe for at least two reasons:
1. A sysctl table definition may use { .data = &variable, .maxsize =
sizeof(variable) }, not realizing that this makes the sysctl unusable
(see the Fixes: tag) and that they need to use the completely
counterintuitive sizeof(int) instead.
2. proc_dobool() will currently try to parse an array of values if given
.maxsize >= 2*sizeof(int), but will try to write values of type bool
by offsets of sizeof(int), so it will not work correctly with neither
an (int *) nor a (bool *). There is no .maxsize validation to prevent
this.
Fix this by:
1. Constraining proc_dobool() to allow only one value and .maxsize ==
sizeof(bool).
2. Wrapping the original struct ctl_table in a temporary one with .data
pointing to a local int variable and .maxsize set to sizeof(int) and
passing this one to proc_dointvec(), converting the value to/from
bool as needed (using proc_dou8vec_minmax() as an example).
3. Extending sysctl_check_table() to enforce proc_dobool() expectations.
4. Fixing the proc_dobool() docstring (it was just copy-pasted from
proc_douintvec, apparently...).
5. Converting all existing proc_dobool() users to set .maxsize to
sizeof(bool) instead of sizeof(int).

Two fixes for SLAB and SLUB
- Make it possible to use kmem_cache_alloc_bulk() early in boot when
interrupts are not yet enabled, as code doing that start to appear via
the maple tree (by Thomas Gleixner).
- Fix debugfs-related memory leak (by Greg Kroah-Hartman).
A bunch of cleanups for SLAB and SLUB:
- Use the standard idiom to get head page of folio (by SeongJae Park)
- Simplify and inline is_debug_pagealloc_cache() in SLAB (by lvqian)
- Remove unused variable in SLAB (by Gou Hao)
