Patch series "mm: optimize shadow entries removal", v2.
Some of our production workloads which processes a large amount of data
spends considerable amount of CPUs on truncation and invalidation of large
sized files (100s of GiBs of size). Tracing the operations showed that
most of the time is in shadow entries removal. This patch series
optimizes the truncation and invalidation operations.
This patch (of 2):
The kernel truncates the page cache in batches of PAGEVEC_SIZE. For each
batch, it traverses the page cache tree and collects the entries (folio
and shadow entries) in the struct folio_batch. For the shadow entries
present in the folio_batch, it has to traverse the page cache tree for
each individual entry to remove them. This patch optimize this by
removing them in a single tree traversal.
On large machines in our production which run workloads manipulating large
amount of data, we have observed that a large amount of CPUs are spent on
truncation of very large files (100s of GiBs file sizes). More
specifically most of time was spent on shadow entries cleanup, so
optimizing the shadow entries cleanup, even a little bit, has good impact.
To evaluate the changes, we created 200GiB file on a fuse fs and in a
memcg. We created the shadow entries by triggering reclaim through
memory.reclaim in that specific memcg and measure the simple truncation
operation.

Bits of LRU_REFS_MASK are not inherited during migration which lead to new
folio start from tier0 when MGLRU enabled. Try to bring as much bits of
folio->flags as possible since compaction and alloc_contig_range which
introduce migration do happen at times.

In walk_pte_range(), we may modify the pte entry after holding the ptl, so
convert it to using pte_offset_map_rw_nolock(). At this time, the
pte_same() check is not performed after the ptl held, so we should get
pmdval and do pmd_same() check to ensure the stability of pmd entry.

In move_pages_pte(), we may modify the dst_pte and src_pte after acquiring
the ptl, so convert it to using pte_offset_map_rw_nolock(). But since we
will use pte_same() to detect the change of the pte entry, there is no
need to get pmdval, so just pass a dummy variable to it.

In move_ptes(), we may modify the new_pte after acquiring the new_ptl, so
convert it to using pte_offset_map_rw_nolock(). Now new_pte is none, so
hpage_collapse_scan_file() path can not find this by traversing
file->f_mapping, so there is no concurrency with retract_page_tables().
In addition, we already hold the exclusive mmap_lock, so this new_pte page
is stable, so there is no need to get pmdval and do pmd_same() check.

Patch series "introduce pte_offset_map_{ro|rw}_nolock()", v5.
As proposed by David Hildenbrand [1], this series introduces the following
two new helper functions to replace pte_offset_map_nolock().
1. pte_offset_map_ro_nolock()
2. pte_offset_map_rw_nolock()
As the name suggests, pte_offset_map_ro_nolock() is used for read-only
case. In this case, only read-only operations will be performed on PTE
page after the PTL is held. The RCU lock in pte_offset_map_nolock() will
ensure that the PTE page will not be freed, and there is no need to worry
about whether the pmd entry is modified. Therefore
pte_offset_map_ro_nolock() is just a renamed version of
pte_offset_map_nolock().
pte_offset_map_rw_nolock() is used for may-write case. In this case, the
pte or pmd entry may be modified after the PTL is held, so we need to
ensure that the pmd entry has not been modified concurrently. So in
addition to the name change, it also outputs the pmdval when successful.
The users should make sure the page table is stable like checking
pte_same() or checking pmd_same() by using the output pmdval before
performing the write operations.
This series will convert all pte_offset_map_nolock() into the above two
helper functions one by one, and finally completely delete it.
This also a preparation for reclaiming the empty user PTE page table
pages.
This patch (of 13):
Currently, the usage of pte_offset_map_nolock() can be divided into the
following two cases:
1) After acquiring PTL, only read-only operations are performed on the PTE
page. In this case, the RCU lock in pte_offset_map_nolock() will ensure
that the PTE page will not be freed, and there is no need to worry
about whether the pmd entry is modified.
2) After acquiring PTL, the pte or pmd entries may be modified. At this
time, we need to ensure that the pmd entry has not been modified
concurrently.
To more clearing distinguish between these two cases, this commit
introduces two new helper functions to replace pte_offset_map_nolock().
For 1), just rename it to pte_offset_map_ro_nolock(). For 2), in addition
to changing the name to pte_offset_map_rw_nolock(), it also outputs the
pmdval when successful. It is applicable for may-write cases where any
modification operations to the page table may happen after the
corresponding spinlock is held afterwards. But the users should make sure
the page table is stable like checking pte_same() or checking pmd_same()
by using the output pmdval before performing the write operations.
Note: "RO" / "RW" expresses the intended semantics, not that the *kmap*
will be read-only/read-write protected.
Subsequent commits will convert pte_offset_map_nolock() into the above
two functions one by one, and finally completely delete it.

The types of mm flags are now far beyond the core dump related features.
This patch moves mm flags from linux/sched/coredump.h to linux/mm_types.h.
The linux/sched/coredump.h has include the mm_types.h, so the C files
related to coredump does not need to change head file inclusion. In
addition, the inclusion of sched/coredump.h now can be deleted from the C
files that irrelevant to core dump.

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

mm_access() can return NULL if the mm is not found, but this is handled
the same as an error in all callers, with some translating this into an
-ESRCH error.
Only proc_mem_open() returns NULL if no mm is found, however in this case
it is clearer and makes more sense to explicitly handle the error.
Additionally we take the opportunity to refactor the function to eliminate
unnecessary nesting.
Simplify things by simply returning -ESRCH if no mm is found - this both
eliminates confusing use of the IS_ERR_OR_NULL() macro, and simplifies
callers which would return -ESRCH by returning this error directly.

Debugging Analysis:
1. The following ftrace log shows that the lockup CPU spends too much
time iterating vmap_nodes and flushing TLB when purging vm_area
structures. (Some info is trimmed).
kworker: funcgraph_entry: | drain_vmap_area_work() {
kworker: funcgraph_entry: | mutex_lock() {
kworker: funcgraph_entry: 1.092 us | __cond_resched();
kworker: funcgraph_exit: 3.306 us | }
... ...
kworker: funcgraph_entry: | flush_tlb_kernel_range() {
... ...
kworker: funcgraph_exit: # 7533.649 us | }
... ...
kworker: funcgraph_entry: 2.344 us | mutex_unlock();
kworker: funcgraph_exit: $ 23871554 us | }
The drain_vmap_area_work() spends over 23 seconds.
There are 2805 flush_tlb_kernel_range() calls in the ftrace log.
* One is called in __purge_vmap_area_lazy().
* Others are called by purge_vmap_node->kasan_release_vmalloc.
purge_vmap_node() iteratively releases kasan vmalloc
allocations and flushes TLB for each vmap_area.
- [Rough calculation] Each flush_tlb_kernel_range() runs
about 7.5ms.
-- 2804 * 7.5ms = 21.03 seconds.
-- That's why a soft lock is triggered.
2. Extending the soft lockup time can work around the issue (For example,
# echo 60 > /proc/sys/kernel/watchdog_thresh). This confirms the
above-mentioned speculation: drain_vmap_area_work() spends too much
time.
If we combine all TLB flush operations of the KASAN shadow virtual
address into one operation in the call path
'purge_vmap_node()->kasan_release_vmalloc()', the running time of
drain_vmap_area_work() can be saved greatly. The idea is from the
flush_tlb_kernel_range() call in __purge_vmap_area_lazy(). And, the
soft lockup won't be triggered.
Here is the test result based on 6.10:
[6.10 wo/ the patch]
1. ftrace latency profiling (record a trace if the latency > 20s).
echo 20000000 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/tracing_thresh
echo drain_vmap_area_work > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/set_graph_function
echo function_graph > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/tracing_on
2. Run `make -j $(nproc)` to compile the kernel source
3. Once the soft lockup is reproduced, check the ftrace log:
cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace
# tracer: function_graph
#
# CPU DURATION FUNCTION CALLS
# | | | | | | |
76) $ 50412985 us | } /* __purge_vmap_area_lazy */
76) $ 50412997 us | } /* drain_vmap_area_work */
76) $ 29165911 us | } /* __purge_vmap_area_lazy */
76) $ 29165926 us | } /* drain_vmap_area_work */
91) $ 53629423 us | } /* __purge_vmap_area_lazy */
91) $ 53629434 us | } /* drain_vmap_area_work */
91) $ 28121014 us | } /* __purge_vmap_area_lazy */
91) $ 28121026 us | } /* drain_vmap_area_work */
[6.10 w/ the patch]
1. Repeat step 1-2 in "[6.10 wo/ the patch]"
2. The soft lockup is not triggered and ftrace log is empty.
cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace
# tracer: function_graph
#
# CPU DURATION FUNCTION CALLS
# | | | | | | |
3. Setting 'tracing_thresh' to 10/5 seconds does not get any ftrace
log.
4. Setting 'tracing_thresh' to 1 second gets ftrace log.
cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace
# tracer: function_graph
#
# CPU DURATION FUNCTION CALLS
# | | | | | | |
23) $ 1074942 us | } /* __purge_vmap_area_lazy */
23) $ 1074950 us | } /* drain_vmap_area_work */
The worst execution time of drain_vmap_area_work() is about 1 second.

Shmem has a separate interface (different from anonymous pages) to control
huge page allocation, that means shmem THP can be enabled while anonymous
THP is disabled. However, in this case, khugepaged will not start to
collapse shmem THP, which is unreasonable.
To fix this issue, we should call start_stop_khugepaged() to activate or
deactivate the khugepaged thread when setting shmem mTHP interfaces.
Moreover, add a new helper shmem_hpage_pmd_enabled() to help to check
whether shmem THP is enabled, which will determine if khugepaged should be
activated.

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

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

Refactor the map_deny_write_exec() to not unnecessarily require a VMA
parameter but rather to accept VMA flags parameters, which allows us to
use this function early in mmap_region() in a subsequent commit.
While we're here, we refactor the function to be more readable and add
some additional documentation.

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

Patch series "fix error handling in mmap_region() and refactor
(hotfixes)", v4.
mmap_region() is somewhat terrifying, with spaghetti-like control flow and
numerous means by which issues can arise and incomplete state, memory
leaks and other unpleasantness can occur.
A large amount of the complexity arises from trying to handle errors late
in the process of mapping a VMA, which forms the basis of recently
observed issues with resource leaks and observable inconsistent state.
This series goes to great lengths to simplify how mmap_region() works and
to avoid unwinding errors late on in the process of setting up the VMA for
the new mapping, and equally avoids such operations occurring while the
VMA is in an inconsistent state.
The patches in this series comprise the minimal changes required to
resolve existing issues in mmap_region() error handling, in order that
they can be hotfixed and backported. There is additionally a follow up
series which goes further, separated out from the v1 series and sent and
updated separately.
This patch (of 5):
After an attempted mmap() fails, we are no longer in a situation where we
can safely interact with VMA hooks. This is currently not enforced,
meaning that we need complicated handling to ensure we do not incorrectly
call these hooks.
We can avoid the whole issue by treating the VMA as suspect the moment
that the file->f_ops->mmap() function reports an error by replacing
whatever VMA operations were installed with a dummy empty set of VMA
operations.
We do so through a new helper function internal to mm - mmap_file() -
which is both more logically named than the existing call_mmap() function
and correctly isolates handling of the vm_op reassignment to mm.
All the existing invocations of call_mmap() outside of mm are ultimately
nested within the call_mmap() from mm, which we now replace.
It is therefore safe to leave call_mmap() in place as a convenience
function (and to avoid churn). The invokers are:
ovl_file_operations -> mmap -> ovl_mmap() -> backing_file_mmap()
coda_file_operations -> mmap -> coda_file_mmap()
shm_file_operations -> shm_mmap()
shm_file_operations_huge -> shm_mmap()
dma_buf_fops -> dma_buf_mmap_internal -> i915_dmabuf_ops
-> i915_gem_dmabuf_mmap()
None of these callers interact with vm_ops or mappings in a problematic
way on error, quickly exiting out.

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

under load revealing long-standing races, causing list_del corruptions,
"Bad page state"s and worse (I keep BUGs in both of those, so usually
don't get to see how badly they end up without). The relevant recent
changes being 6.8's mTHP, 6.10's mTHP swapout, and 6.12's mTHP swapin,
improved swap allocation, and underused THP splitting.
The new unlocked list_del_init() in deferred_split_scan() is buggy. I
gave bad advice, it looks plausible since that's a local on-stack list,
but the fact is that it can race with a third party freeing or migrating
the preceding folio (properly unqueueing it with refcount 0 while holding
split_queue_lock), thereby corrupting the list linkage.
The obvious answer would be to take split_queue_lock there: but it has a
long history of contention, so I'm reluctant to add to that. Instead,
make sure that there is always one safe (raised refcount) folio before, by
delaying its folio_put(). (And of course I was wrong to suggest updating
split_queue_len without the lock: leave that until the splice.)
And remove two over-eager partially_mapped checks, restoring those tests
to how they were before: if uncharge_folio() or free_tail_page_prepare()
finds _deferred_list non-empty, it's in trouble whether or not that folio
is partially_mapped (and the flag was already cleared in the latter case).

kmem_buckets_create
Commit b035f5a6d852 ("mm: slab: reduce the kmalloc() minimum alignment
if DMA bouncing possible") reduced ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN to 8 on arm64.
However, with KASAN_HW_TAGS enabled, arch_slab_minalign() becomes 16.
This causes kmalloc_caches[*][8] to be aliased to kmalloc_caches[*][16],
resulting in kmem_buckets_create() attempting to create a kmem_cache for
size 16 twice. This duplication triggers warnings on boot:

When the MM_WALK capability is enabled, memory that is mostly accessed by
a VM appears younger than it really is, therefore this memory will be less
likely to be evicted. Therefore, the presence of a running VM can
significantly increase swap-outs for non-VM memory, regressing the
performance for the rest of the system.
Fix this regression by always calling {ptep,pmdp}_clear_young_notify()
whenever we clear the young bits on PMDs/PTEs.

Patch series "mm: multi-gen LRU: Have secondary MMUs participate in
MM_WALK".
Today, the MM_WALK capability causes MGLRU to clear the young bit from
PMDs and PTEs during the page table walk before eviction, but MGLRU does
not call the clear_young() MMU notifier in this case. By not calling this
notifier, the MM walk takes less time/CPU, but it causes pages that are
accessed mostly through KVM / secondary MMUs to appear younger than they
should be.
We do call the clear_young() notifier today, but only when attempting to
evict the page, so we end up clearing young/accessed information less
frequently for secondary MMUs than for mm PTEs, and therefore they appear
younger and are less likely to be evicted. Therefore, memory that is
*not* being accessed mostly by KVM will be evicted *more* frequently,
worsening performance.
ChromeOS observed a tab-open latency regression when enabling MGLRU with a
setup that involved running a VM:
Tab-open latency histogram (ms)
Version p50 mean p95 p99 max
base 1315 1198 2347 3454 10319
mglru 2559 1311 7399 12060 43758
fix 1119 926 2470 4211 6947
This series replaces the final non-selftest patchs from this series[1],
which introduced a similar change (and a new MMU notifier) with KVM
optimizations. I'll send a separate series (to Sean and Paolo) for the
KVM optimizations.
This series also makes proactive reclaim with MGLRU possible for KVM
memory. I have verified that this functions correctly with the selftest
from [1], but given that that test is a KVM selftest, I'll send it with
the rest of the KVM optimizations later. Andrew, let me know if you'd
like to take the test now anyway.

This patch (of 2):
The removed stats, MM_LEAF_OLD and MM_NONLEAF_TOTAL, are not very helpful
and become more complicated to properly compute when adding
test/clear_young() notifiers in MGLRU's mm walk.

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

When numa balancing is enabled with demotion, vmscan will call
migrate_pages when shrinking LRUs. migrate_pages will decrement the
the node's isolated page count, leading to an imbalanced count when
invoked from (MG)LRU code.
The result is dmesg output like such:
$ cat /proc/sys/vm/stat_refresh
[77383.088417] vmstat_refresh: nr_isolated_anon -103212
[77383.088417] vmstat_refresh: nr_isolated_file -899642
This negative value may impact compaction and reclaim throttling.
The following path produces the decrement:
shrink_folio_list
demote_folio_list
migrate_pages
migrate_pages_batch
migrate_folio_move
migrate_folio_done
mod_node_page_state(-ve) <- decrement
This path happens for SUCCESSFUL migrations, not failures. Typically
callers to migrate_pages are required to handle putback/accounting for
failures, but this is already handled in the shrink code.
When accounting for migrations, instead do not decrement the count when
the migration reason is MR_DEMOTION. As of v6.11, this demotion logic
is the only source of MR_DEMOTION.

Commit 1a2473f0cbc0 ("kasan: improve vmalloc tests") added the
vmalloc_percpu KASAN test with the assumption that __alloc_percpu always
uses vmalloc internally, which is tagged by KASAN.
However, __alloc_percpu might allocate memory from the first per-CPU
chunk, which is not allocated via vmalloc(). As a result, the test might
fail.
Remove the test until proper KASAN annotation for the per-CPU allocated
are added; tracked in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=215019.

When running low on usable slots, cluster allocator will try to reclaim
the full clusters aggressively to reclaim HAS_CACHE slots. This
guarantees that as long as there are any usable slots, HAS_CACHE or not,
the swap device will be usable and workload won't go OOM early.
Before the cluster allocator, swap allocator fails easily if device is
filled up with reclaimable HAS_CACHE slots. Which can be easily
reproduced with following simple program:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <linux/mman.h>
#include <sys/mman.h>
#define SIZE 8192UL * 1024UL * 1024UL
int main(int argc, char **argv) {
long tmp;
char *p = mmap(NULL, SIZE, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0);
memset(p, 0, SIZE);
madvise(p, SIZE, MADV_PAGEOUT);
for (unsigned long i = 0; i < SIZE; ++i)
tmp += p[i];
getchar(); /* Pause */
return 0;
}
Setup an 8G non ramdisk swap, the first run of the program will swapout 8G
ram successfully. But run same program again after the first run paused,
the second run can't swapout all 8G memory as now half of the swap device
is pinned by HAS_CACHE. There was a random scan in the old allocator that
may reclaim part of the HAS_CACHE by luck, but it's unreliable.
The new allocator's added reclaim of full clusters when device is low on
usable slots. But when multiple CPUs are seeing the device is low on
usable slots at the same time, they ran into a thundering herd problem.
This is an observable problem on large machine with mass parallel
workload, as full cluster reclaim is slower on large swap device and
higher number of CPUs will also make things worse.
Testing using a 128G ZRAM on a 48c96t system. When the swap device is
very close to full (eg. 124G / 128G), running build linux kernel with
make -j96 in a 1G memory cgroup will hung (not a softlockup though)
spinning in full cluster reclaim for about ~5min before go OOM.
To solve this, split the full reclaim into two parts:
- Instead of do a synchronous aggressively reclaim when device is low,
do only one aggressively reclaim when device is strictly full with a
kworker. This still ensures in worst case the device won't be unusable
because of HAS_CACHE slots.
- To avoid allocation (especially higher order) suffer from HAS_CACHE
filling up clusters and kworker not responsive enough, do one synchronous
scan every time the free list is drained, and only scan one cluster. This
is kind of similar to the random reclaim before, keeps the full clusters
rotated and has a minimal latency. This should provide a fair reclaim
strategy suitable for most workloads.

An anonymous large folio can be split into non order-0 folios,
try_to_map_unused_to_zeropage() should not VM_BUG_ON compound pages but
just return false. This fixes the crash when splitting anonymous large

If a driver tries to call any of the pin_user_pages*(FOLL_LONGTERM) family
of functions, and requests "too many" pages, then the call will
erroneously leave pages pinned. This is visible in user space as an
actual memory leak.
Repro is trivial: just make enough pin_user_pages(FOLL_LONGTERM) calls to
exhaust memory.
The root cause of the problem is this sequence, within
__gup_longterm_locked():
__get_user_pages_locked()
rc = check_and_migrate_movable_pages()
...which gets retried in a loop. The loop error handling is incomplete,
clearly due to a somewhat unusual and complicated tri-state error API.
But anyway, if -ENOMEM, or in fact, any unexpected error is returned from
check_and_migrate_movable_pages(), then __gup_longterm_locked() happily
returns the error, while leaving the pages pinned.
In the failed case, which is an app that requests (via a device driver)
30720000000 bytes to be pinned, and then exits, I see this:
$ grep foll /proc/vmstat
nr_foll_pin_acquired 7502048
nr_foll_pin_released 2048
And after applying this patch, it returns to balanced pins:
$ grep foll /proc/vmstat
nr_foll_pin_acquired 7502048
nr_foll_pin_released 7502048
Note that the child routine, check_and_migrate_movable_folios(), avoids
this problem, by unpinning any folios in the **folios argument, before
returning an error.
Fix this by making check_and_migrate_movable_pages() behave in exactly the
same way as check_and_migrate_movable_folios(): unpin all pages in
**pages, before returning an error.
Also, documentation was an aggravating factor, so:
1) Consolidate the documentation for these two routines, now that they
have identical external behavior.
2) Rewrite the consolidated documentation:
a) Clearly list the three return code cases, and what happens in
each case.
b) Mention that one of the cases unpins the pages or folios, before
returning an error code.

The old SLAB allocator used to support memory policies on a per
allocation bases. In SLUB the memory policies are applied on a
per page frame / folio bases. Doing so avoids having to check memory
policies in critical code paths for kmalloc and friends.
This worked on general well on Intel/AMD/PowerPC because the
interconnect technology is mature and can minimize the latencies
through intelligent caching even if a small object is not
placed optimally.
However, on ARM we have an emergence of new NUMA interconnect
technology based more on embedded devices. Caching of remote content
can currently be ineffective using the standard building blocks / mesh
available on that platform. Such architectures benefit if each slab
object is individually placed according to memory policies
and other restrictions.
This patch adds another kernel parameter
slab_strict_numa
If that is set then a static branch is activated that will cause
the hotpaths of the allocator to evaluate the current memory
allocation policy. Each object will be properly placed by
paying the price of extra processing and SLUB will no longer
defer to the page allocator to apply memory policies at the
folio level.
This patch improves performance of memcached running
on Ampere Altra 2P system (ARM Neoverse N1 processor)
by 3.6% due to accurate placement of small kernel objects.

We have many SLAB_ flags but many are used only internally, by kunit
tests or debugging subsystems cooperating with slab, or are set
according to slab_debug boot parameter.
Create kerneldocs for the commonly used flags that may be passed to
kmem_cache_create(). SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU already had a detailed
description, so turn it to a kerneldoc. Add some details for
SLAB_ACCOUNT, SLAB_RECLAIM_ACCOUNT and SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN. Reference
them from the __kmem_cache_create_args() kerneldoc.

The WARN_ON() check in static function create_cache() is done by its only
parent __kmem_cache_create_args() before calling it.
if (... ||
WARN_ON(... ||
object_size - args->usersize < args->useroffset))
args->usersize = args->useroffset = 0;
...
s = create_cache(cache_name, object_size, args, flags);
Therefore, the WARN_ON() check in create_cache() can be safely removed.
