Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- The series "Enable strict percpu address space checks" from Uros
Bizjak uses x86 named address space qualifiers to provide
compile-time checking of percpu area accesses.
This has caused a small amount of fallout - two or three issues were
reported. In all cases the calling code was found to be incorrect.
- The series "Some cleanup for memcg" from Chen Ridong implements some
relatively monir cleanups for the memcontrol code.
- The series "mm: fixes for device-exclusive entries (hmm)" from David
Hildenbrand fixes a boatload of issues which David found then using
device-exclusive PTE entries when THP is enabled. More work is
needed, but this makes thins better - our own HMM selftests now
succeed.
- The series "mm: zswap: remove z3fold and zbud" from Yosry Ahmed
remove the z3fold and zbud implementations. They have been deprecated
for half a year and nobody has complained.
- The series "mm: further simplify VMA merge operation" from Lorenzo
Stoakes implements numerous simplifications in this area. No runtime
effects are anticipated.
- The series "mm/madvise: remove redundant mmap_lock operations from
process_madvise()" from SeongJae Park rationalizes the locking in the
madvise() implementation. Performance gains of 20-25% were observed
in one MADV_DONTNEED microbenchmark.
- The series "Tiny cleanup and improvements about SWAP code" from
Baoquan He contains a number of touchups to issues which Baoquan
noticed when working on the swap code.
- The series "mm: kmemleak: Usability improvements" from Catalin
Marinas implements a couple of improvements to the kmemleak
user-visible output.
- The series "mm/damon/paddr: fix large folios access and schemes
handling" from Usama Arif provides a couple of fixes for DAMON's
handling of large folios.
- The series "mm/damon/core: fix wrong and/or useless damos_walk()
behaviors" from SeongJae Park fixes a few issues with the accuracy of
kdamond's walking of DAMON regions.
- The series "expose mapping wrprotect, fix fb_defio use" from Lorenzo
Stoakes changes the interaction between framebuffer deferred-io and
core MM. No functional changes are anticipated - this is preparatory
work for the future removal of page structure fields.
- The series "mm/damon: add support for hugepage_size DAMOS filter"
from Usama Arif adds a DAMOS filter which permits the filtering by
huge page sizes.
- The series "mm: permit guard regions for file-backed/shmem mappings"
from Lorenzo Stoakes extends the guard region feature from its
present "anon mappings only" state. The feature now covers shmem and
file-backed mappings.
- The series "mm: batched unmap lazyfree large folios during
reclamation" from Barry Song cleans up and speeds up the unmapping
for pte-mapped large folios.
- The series "reimplement per-vma lock as a refcount" from Suren
Baghdasaryan puts the vm_lock back into the vma. Our reasons for
pulling it out were largely bogus and that change made the code more
messy. This patchset provides small (0-10%) improvements on one
microbenchmark.
- The series "Docs/mm/damon: misc DAMOS filters documentation fixes and
improves" from SeongJae Park does some maintenance work on the DAMON
docs.
- The series "hugetlb/CMA improvements for large systems" from Frank
van der Linden addresses a pile of issues which have been observed
when using CMA on large machines.

Brendan Jackman fixes a pile of unrelated issues which Brendan
encountered while runnimg our selftests.
- The series "fs/proc/task_mmu: add guard region bit to pagemap" from
Lorenzo Stoakes permits userspace to use /proc/pid/pagemap to
determine whether a particular page is a guard page.
- The series "mm, swap: remove swap slot cache" from Kairui Song
removes the swap slot cache from the allocation path - it simply
wasn't being effective.
- The series "mm: cleanups for device-exclusive entries (hmm)" from
David Hildenbrand implements a number of unrelated cleanups in this
code.
- The series "mm: Rework generic PTDUMP configs" from Anshuman Khandual

Kconfig logic.
- The series "mm/damon: auto-tune aggregation interval" from SeongJae
Park implements a feedback-driven automatic tuning feature for
DAMON's aggregation interval tuning.
- The series "Fix lazy mmu mode" from Ryan Roberts fixes some issues in
powerpc, sparc and x86 lazy MMU implementations. Ryan did this in
preparation for implementing lazy mmu mode for arm64 to optimize
vmalloc.
- The series "mm/page_alloc: Some clarifications for migratetype
fallback" from Brendan Jackman reworks some commentary to make the
code easier to follow.

reduce boot time by tuning the parallalization of huge page
initialization.
- The series "Fix calculations in trace_balance_dirty_pages() for cgwb"
from Tang Yizhou fixes the tracing output from the dirty page
balancing code.

Currently fs dax pages are considered free when the refcount drops to one
and their refcounts are not increased when mapped via PTEs or decreased
when unmapped. This requires special logic in mm paths to detect that
these pages should not be properly refcounted, and to detect when the
refcount drops to one instead of zero.
On the other hand get_user_pages(), etc. will properly refcount fs dax
pages by taking a reference and dropping it when the page is unpinned.
Tracking this special behaviour requires extra PTE bits (eg. pte_devmap)
and introduces rules that are potentially confusing and specific to FS DAX
pages. To fix this, and to possibly allow removal of the special PTE bits
in future, convert the fs dax page refcounts to be zero based and instead
take a reference on the page each time it is mapped as is currently the
case for normal pages.
This may also allow a future clean-up to remove the pgmap refcounting that
is currently done in mm/gup.c.

Add RWF_DONTCACHE as a read operation flag, which means that any data read
wil be removed from the page cache upon completion. Uses the page cache
to synchronize, and simply prunes folios that were instantiated when the
operation completes. While it would be possible to use private pages for
this, using the page cache as synchronization is handy for a variety of
reasons:
1) No special truncate magic is needed
2) Async buffered reads need some place to serialize, using the page
cache is a lot easier than writing extra code for this
3) The pruning cost is pretty reasonable
and the code to support this is much simpler as a result.
You can think of uncached buffered IO as being the much more attractive
cousin of O_DIRECT - it has none of the restrictions of O_DIRECT. Yes, it
will copy the data, but unlike regular buffered IO, it doesn't run into
the unpredictability of the page cache in terms of reclaim. As an
example, on a test box with 32 drives, reading them with buffered IO looks
as follows:
Reading bs 65536, uncached 0
1s: 145945MB/sec
2s: 158067MB/sec

11s: 95488MB/sec
12s: 95552MB/sec
13s: 96275MB/sec
where it's quite easy to see where the page cache filled up, and
performance went from good to erratic, and finally settles at a much
lower rate. Looking at top while this is ongoing, we see:

With the aging feedback no longer considering the distribution of folios
in each generation, rework workingset protection to better distribute
folios across MAX_NR_GENS. This is achieved by reusing PG_workingset and
PG_referenced/LRU_REFS_FLAGS in a slightly different way.
For folios accessed multiple times through file descriptors, make
lru_gen_inc_refs() set additional bits of LRU_REFS_WIDTH in folio->flags
after PG_referenced, then PG_workingset after LRU_REFS_WIDTH. After all
its bits are set, i.e., LRU_REFS_FLAGS|BIT(PG_workingset), a folio is
lazily promoted into the second oldest generation in the eviction path.
And when folio_inc_gen() does that, it clears LRU_REFS_FLAGS so that
lru_gen_inc_refs() can start over. For this case, LRU_REFS_MASK is only
valid when PG_referenced is set.
For folios accessed multiple times through page tables, folio_update_gen()
from a page table walk or lru_gen_set_refs() from a rmap walk sets
PG_referenced after the accessed bit is cleared for the first time.
Thereafter, those two paths set PG_workingset and promote folios to the
youngest generation. Like folio_inc_gen(), when folio_update_gen() does
that, it also clears PG_referenced. For this case, LRU_REFS_MASK is not
used.
For both of the cases, after PG_workingset is set on a folio, it remains
until this folio is either reclaimed, or "deactivated" by
lru_gen_clear_refs(). It can be set again if lru_gen_test_recent()
returns true upon a refault.
When adding folios to the LRU lists, lru_gen_folio_seq() distributes
them as follows:
+---------------------------------+---------------------------------+
| Accessed thru page tables | Accessed thru file descriptors |
+---------------------------------+---------------------------------+
| PG_active (set while isolated) | |
+----------------+----------------+----------------+----------------+
| PG_workingset | PG_referenced | PG_workingset | LRU_REFS_FLAGS |
+---------------------------------+---------------------------------+
|<--------- MIN_NR_GENS --------->| |
|<-------------------------- MAX_NR_GENS -------------------------->|
After this patch, some typical client and server workloads showed
improvements under heavy memory pressure. For example, Python TPC-C,
which was used to benchmark a different approach [1] to better detect
refault distances, showed a significant decrease in total refaults:
Before After Change

Do not shuffle a folio in the deactivation paths if it is already in the
oldest generation. This reduces the LRU lock contention.
Before this patch, the contention is reproducible by FIO, e.g.,
fio -filename=/dev/nvme1n1p2 -direct=0 -thread -size=1024G \
-rwmixwrite=30 --norandommap --randrepeat=0 -ioengine=sync \
-bs=4k -numjobs=400 -runtime=25000 --time_based \
-group_reporting -name=mglru
98.96%--_raw_spin_lock_irqsave
folio_lruvec_lock_irqsave
|
--98.78%--folio_batch_move_lru
|
--98.63%--deactivate_file_folio
mapping_try_invalidate
invalidate_mapping_pages
invalidate_bdev
blkdev_common_ioctl
blkdev_ioctl
After this patch, deactivate_file_folio() bails out early without taking
the LRU lock.
A side effect is that a folio can be left at the head of the oldest
generation, rather than the tail. If reclaim happens at the same time, it
cannot reclaim this folio immediately. Since there is no known
correlation between truncation and reclaim, this side effect is considered
insignificant.

The problem was originally introduced by commit b109b87050df ("mm/munlock:
replace clear_page_mlock() by final clearance"): it was focused on
handling pagecache and anonymous memory and wasn't suitable for lower
level get_page()/free_page() API's used for example by KVM, as with this
reproducer.
Fix it by moving the mlocked flag clearance down to free_page_prepare().
The bug itself if fairly old and harmless (aside from generating these
warnings), aside from a small memory leak - "bad" pages are stopped from
being allocated again.

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.

Whoever passes a folio to __folio_batch_add_and_move() must hold a
reference, otherwise something else would already be messed up. If the
folio is referenced, it will not be freed elsewhere, so we can safely
clear the folio's lru flag. As discussed with David in [1], we should
take the reference after testing the LRU flag, not before.

Fold lru_rotate into cpu_fbatches, and rename the folio_batch and the lock
protecting it to lru_move_tail and lock_irq respectively so that all the
boilerplate can be removed at the end of this series.
Also remove data_race() around folio_batch_count(), which is out of place:
all folio_batch_count() calls on remote cpu_fbatches are subject to
data_race(), and therefore data_race() should be inside
folio_batch_count().

Patch series "mm/swap: remove boilerplate".
This patch (of 5):
Use folio_activate() as an example:
Before this series
------------------
if (!folio_test_active(folio) && !folio_test_unevictable(folio)) {
struct folio_batch *fbatch;
folio_get(folio);
if (!folio_test_clear_lru(folio)) {
folio_put(folio);
return;
}
local_lock(&cpu_fbatches.lock);
fbatch = this_cpu_ptr(&cpu_fbatches.activate);
folio_batch_add_and_move(fbatch, folio, folio_activate_fn);
local_unlock(&cpu_fbatches.lock);
}
}
After this series
-----------------
void folio_activate(struct folio *folio)
{
if (folio_test_active(folio) || folio_test_unevictable(folio))
return;
folio_batch_add_and_move(folio, lru_activate, true);
}
And this is applied to all 6 folio_batch handlers in mm/swap.c.

If a large number of CMA memory are configured in system (for example,
the CMA memory accounts for 50% of the system memory), starting a
virtual virtual machine with device passthrough, it will call
pin_user_pages_remote(..., FOLL_LONGTERM, ...) to pin memory. Normally
if a page is present and in CMA area, pin_user_pages_remote() will
migrate the page from CMA area to non-CMA area because of FOLL_LONGTERM
flag. But the current code will cause the migration failure due to
unexpected page refcounts, and eventually cause the virtual machine
fail to start.
If a page is added in LRU batch, its refcount increases one, remove the
page from LRU batch decreases one. Page migration requires the page is
not referenced by others except page mapping. Before migrating a page,
we should try to drain the page from LRU batch in case the page is in
it, however, folio_test_lru() is not sufficient to tell whether the
page is in LRU batch or not, if the page is in LRU batch, the migration
will fail.
To solve the problem above, we modify the logic of adding to LRU batch.
Before adding a page to LRU batch, we clear the LRU flag of the page
so that we can check whether the page is in LRU batch by
folio_test_lru(page). It's quite valuable, because likely we don't
want to blindly drain the LRU batch simply because there is some
unexpected reference on a page, as described above.
This change makes the LRU flag of a page invisible for longer, which
may impact some programs. For example, as long as a page is on a LRU
batch, we cannot isolate it, and we cannot check if it's an LRU page.
Further, a page can now only be on exactly one LRU batch. This doesn't
seem to matter much, because a new page is allocated from buddy and
added to the lru batch, or be isolated, it's LRU flag may also be
invisible for a long time.

Folios of order <= 1 are not in deferred list, the check of order is added
into folio_undo_large_rmappable() from commit 8897277acfef ("mm: support
order-1 folios in the page cache"), but there is a repeated check for
small folio (order 0) during each call of the
folio_undo_large_rmappable(), so only keep folio_order() check inside the
function.
In addition, move all the checks into header file to save a function call
for non-large-rmappable or empty deferred_list folio.

Patch series "Clean up __folio_put()".
With all the changes over the last few years, __folio_put_small and
__folio_put_large have become almost identical to each other ... except
you can't tell because they're spread over two files. Rearrange it all so
that you can tell, and then inline them both into __folio_put().
This patch (of 5):
free_unref_folios() can now handle non-hugetlb large folios, so keep
normal large folios in the batch. hugetlb folios still need to be handled
specially.

My recent change to put_pages_list() dereferences folio->lru.next after
returning the folio to the page allocator. Usually this is now on the pcp
list with other free folios, so we try to free an already-free folio.
This only happens with lists that have more than 15 entries, so it wasn't
immediately discovered. Revert to using list_for_each_safe() so we
dereference lru.next before disposing of the folio.

When freeing a large folio, we must remove it from the deferred split list
before we uncharge it as each memcg has its own deferred split list (with
associated lock) and removing a folio from the deferred split list while
holding the wrong lock will corrupt that list and cause various related
problems.

Patch series "Rearrange batched folio freeing", v3.
Other than the obvious "remove calls to compound_head" changes, the
fundamental belief here is that iterating a linked list is much slower
than iterating an array (5-15x slower in my testing). There's also an
associated belief that since we iterate the batch of folios three times,
we do better when the array is small (ie 15 entries) than we do with a
batch that is hundreds of entries long, which only gives us the
opportunity for the first pages to fall out of cache by the time we get to
the end.
It is possible we should increase the size of folio_batch. Hopefully the
bots let us know if this introduces any performance regressions.
This patch (of 3):
By making release_pages() call folios_put(), we can get rid of the calls
to compound_head() for the callers that already know they have folios. We
can also get rid of the lock_batch tracking as we know the size of the
batch is limited by folio_batch. This does reduce the maximum number of
pages for which the lruvec lock is held, from SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX (32) to
PAGEVEC_SIZE (15). I do not expect this to make a significant difference,
but if it does, we can increase PAGEVEC_SIZE to 31.

Add __tlb_remove_folio_pages(), which will remove multiple consecutive
pages that belong to the same large folio, instead of only a single page.
We'll be using this function when optimizing unmapping/zapping of large
folios that are mapped by PTEs.
We're using the remaining spare bit in an encoded_page to indicate that
the next enoced page in an array contains actually shifted "nr_pages".
Teach swap/freeing code about putting multiple folio references, and
delayed rmap handling to remove page ranges of a folio.
This extension allows for still gathering almost as many small folios as
we used to (-1, because we have to prepare for a possibly bigger next
entry), but still allows for gathering consecutive pages that belong to
the same large folio.
Note that we don't pass the folio pointer, because it is not required for
now. Further, we don't support page_size != PAGE_SIZE, it won't be
required for simple PTE batching.
We have to provide a separate s390 implementation, but it's fairly
straight forward.
Another, more invasive and likely more expensive, approach would be to use
folio+range or a PFN range instead of page+nr_pages. But, we should do
that consistently for the whole mmu_gather. For now, let's keep it simple
and add "nr_pages" only.
Note that it is now possible to gather significantly more pages: In the
past, we were able to gather ~10000 pages, now we can also gather ~5000
folio fragments that span multiple pages. A folio fragment on x86-64 can
span up to 512 pages (2 MiB THP) and on arm64 with 64k in theory 8192
pages (512 MiB THP). Gathering more memory is not considered something we
should worry about, especially because these are already corner cases.
While we can gather more total memory, we won't free more folio fragments.
As long as page freeing time primarily only depends on the number of
involved folios, there is no effective change for !preempt configurations.
However, we'll adjust tlb_batch_pages_flush() separately to handle corner
cases where page freeing time grows proportionally with the actual memory
size.

The ->percpu_pvec_drained was originally introduced by commit d9ed0d08b6c6
("mm: only drain per-cpu pagevecs once per pagevec usage") to drain
per-cpu pagevecs only once per pagevec usage. But after converting the
swap code to be more folio-based, the commit c2bc16817aa0 ("mm/swap: add
folio_batch_move_lru()") breaks this logic, which would cause
->percpu_pvec_drained to be reset to false, that means per-cpu pagevecs
will be drained multiple times per pagevec usage.
In theory, there should be no functional changes when converting code to
be more folio-based. We should call folio_batch_reinit() in
folio_batch_move_lru() instead of folio_batch_init(). And to verify that
we still need ->percpu_pvec_drained, I ran mmtests/sparsetruncate-tiny and
got the following data:

From the above it can be seen that we get similar data to when
->percpu_pvec_drained was introduced, so we still need it. Let's call
folio_batch_reinit() in folio_batch_move_lru() to restore the original
logic.

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".

Update the mlock interface to accept folios rather than pages, bringing
the interface in line with the internal implementation.
munlock_vma_page() still requires a page_folio() conversion, however this
is consistent with the existent mlock_vma_page() implementation and a
product of rmap still dealing in pages rather than folios.

Deactivate_page() has already been converted to use folios, this change
converts it to take in a folio argument instead of calling page_folio().
It also renames the function folio_deactivate() to be more consistent with
other folio functions.
[akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix left-over comments, per Yu Zhao]

release_pages() already could take either an array of page pointers, or an
array of folio pointers. Expand it to also accept an array of encoded
page pointers, which is what both the existing mlock() use and the
upcoming mmu_gather use of encoded page pointers wants.
Note that release_pages() won't actually use, or react to, any extra
encoded bits. Instead, this is very much a case of "I have walked the
array of encoded pages and done everything the extra bits tell me to do,
now release it all".
Also, while the "either page or folio pointers" dual use was handled with
a cast of the pointer in "release_folios()", this takes a slightly
different approach and uses the "transparent union" attribute to describe
the set of arguments to the function:
https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Common-Type-Attributes.html
which has been supported by gcc forever, but the kernel hasn't used
before.
That allows us to avoid using various wrappers with casts, and just use
the same function regardless of use.

Currenty there is no upper limit for /proc/sys/vm/page-cluster, and it's a
bit shift value, so it could result in overflow of the 32-bit integer.
Add a reasonable upper limit for it, read-in at most 2**31 pages, which is
a large enough value for readahead.

We noticed a 2% webserver throughput regression after upgrading from 5.6.
This could be tracked down to a shift in the anon/file reclaim balance
(confirmed with swappiness) that resulted in worse reclaim efficiency and
thus more kswapd activity for the same outcome.
The change that exposed the problem is aae466b0052e ("mm/swap: implement
workingset detection for anonymous LRU"). By qualifying swapins based on
their refault distance, it lowered the cost of anon reclaim in this
workload, in turn causing (much) more anon scanning than before. Scanning
the anon list is more expensive due to the higher ratio of mmapped pages
that may rotate during reclaim, and so the result was an increase in %sys
time.
Right now, rotations aren't considered a cost when balancing scan pressure
between LRUs. We can end up with very few file refaults putting all the
scan pressure on hot anon pages that are rotated en masse, don't get
reclaimed, and never push back on the file LRU again. We still only
reclaim file cache in that case, but we burn a lot CPU rotating anon
pages. It's "fair" from an LRU age POV, but doesn't reflect the real cost
it imposes on the system.
Consider rotations as a secondary factor in balancing the LRUs. This
doesn't attempt to make a precise comparison between IO cost and CPU cost,
it just says: if reloads are about comparable between the lists, or
rotations are overwhelmingly different, adjust for CPU work.
This fixed the regression on our webservers. It has since been deployed
to the entire Meta fleet and hasn't caused any problems.
