2026-08-24mm: provide vma_[flags_]is_cow_mapping() and remove is_cow_mapping()Lorenzo Stoakes (ARM)1-1/+1
All remaining callers of is_cow_mapping() are invoking it in the form of is_cow_mapping(vma->vm_flags) or an indirected version of this. Therefore, provide a helper - vma_is_cow_mapping() to directly test the VMA. Additionally provide a new helper vma_flags_is_cow_mapping() which performs the check using the new vma_flags_t type, and share this logic between vma_is_cow_mapping() and vma_desc_is_cow_mapping(). With these changes, no callers of is_cow_mapping() remain, so remove it. Also update the userland VMA tests to reflect the change. No functional change intended.

2026-08-04mm/pagemap: add PAGE_IS_ACCESSED for RWP trackingKiryl Shutsemau (Meta)1-26/+55
PAGEMAP_SCAN already reports PAGE_IS_WRITTEN from the inverted uffd PTE bit, targeting the UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT workflow. UFFDIO_RWPROTECT reuses the same PTE bit as a marker for read-write protection, but "has been written" and "has been accessed" are distinct semantic signals — they happen to share one PTE bit today only because the two implementations share infrastructure. Give RWP its own pagemap category so the UAPI does not conflate them: PAGE_IS_WRITTEN reported on VM_UFFD_WP VMAs, !pte_uffd(pte) PAGE_IS_ACCESSED reported on VM_UFFD_RWP VMAs, !pte_uffd(pte) Both still read the same PTE bit today, but each is scoped to the VMA whose registered mode makes the bit meaningful. If a future implementation moves RWP to a separate PTE bit, only PAGE_IS_ACCESSED switches over. This is a UAPI narrowing. Outside VM_UFFD_WP VMAs the uffd bit is always clear, so PAGEMAP_SCAN used to flag PAGE_IS_WRITTEN on every present PTE there — a meaningless duplicate of PAGE_IS_PRESENT. Now PAGE_IS_WRITTEN fires only inside VM_UFFD_WP VMAs. pagemap_hugetlb_category() now takes the vma like its PTE/PMD peers.

2026-08-04mm: add VM_UFFD_RWP VMA flagKiryl Shutsemau (Meta)1-0/+3
Preparatory patch for userfaultfd read-write protection (RWP). RWP extends userfaultfd protection from plain write-protection (WP) to full read-write protection: accesses to an RWP-protected range -- reads as well as writes -- trap through userfaultfd. Reserve VM_UFFD_RWP, add the userfaultfd_rwp() and userfaultfd_protected() helpers, and wire up the smaps "ur" entry and the trace-flag table the rest of the series will use. The flag is gated on CONFIG_USERFAULTFD_RWP, which is introduced together with the UAPI in a later patch; until then VM_UFFD_RWP aliases VM_NONE and every downstream check folds to dead code. Nothing sets or queries the flag yet.

2026-08-04mm: rename uffd-wp PTE accessors to uffdKiryl Shutsemau (Meta)1-22/+22
Userfaultfd RWP will reuse the uffd-wp PTE bit to mark access-tracking PTEs, alongside the write-protected ones it already marks. The bit's meaning now depends on the VMA flag (WP or RWP), not on its name. Rename the kernel-internal names that describe the bit: - pte/pmd/huge_pte accessors (and swap variants) - pgtable_supports_uffd() capability query - SCAN_PTE_UFFD khugepaged enum The ftrace string emitted by mm_khugepaged_scan_pmd for this enum is kept as "pte_uffd_wp" so existing trace-based tooling keeps matching. Pure mechanical rename -- no behavior change.

2026-07-30fs/proc: use softleaf_has_pfn() in pagemap PMD walkerUsama Arif1-1/+2
pagemap_pmd_range_thp() assumes that every non-present PMD is a migration entry and unconditionally calls softleaf_to_page(). This will crash on any non-present PMD type that does not encode a PFN, such as the upcoming PMD-level swap entries. Guard the page lookup with softleaf_has_pfn(), matching how pte_to_pagemap_entry() already handles non-present PTEs.

2026-07-20fs/proc/task_mmu: fix PAGEMAP_SCAN written state for PMD holesKiryl Shutsemau (Meta)1-2/+18
PAGEMAP_SCAN reports an unpopulated PTE in a uffd-wp VMA as written, but a range with no page table at all -- a PMD hole -- is skipped: pagemap_scan_pte_hole() tests p->cur_vma_category, which never carries PAGE_IS_WRITTEN, so the hole is neither reported nor (under PM_SCAN_WP_MATCHING) armed. In a uffd-wp VMA, WP_UNPOPULATED installs uffd-wp markers when protecting a range, allocating page tables as needed, so an unpopulated slot is treated as written -- see the pte_none() handling in pagemap_page_category(). A missing marker therefore means the range was zapped, e.g. via MADV_DONTNEED. This applies to anon and shmem VMAs. An anonymous THP is write-protected in place as a huge PMD, so a full-PMD MADV_DONTNEED clears it to pmd_none -- a hole with no page table -- and pagemap_scan_pte_hole() misses it. For a MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANON mapping MADV_DONTNEED has fill-with-zeros semantics, so a write-tracking checkpoint/migration tool (e.g. CRIU) treats the range as unchanged and keeps its previous contents; after restore or live migration the process reads stale data instead of zeroes -- data corruption. Report a hole in a non-hugetlb uffd-wp VMA as written, matching the pte_none handling in pagemap_page_category(); the existing PM_SCAN_WP_MATCHING path then arms it via uffd_wp_range(). hugetlb is excluded: pagemap_hugetlb_category() reports an empty hugetlb entry (huge_pte_none) as not-written, unlike pagemap_page_category(), which reports pte_none as written. pagemap_scan_pte_hole() fires for a hugetlb slot only when it has no page table; keeping that not-written matches how an allocated-but-empty hugetlb entry reads, so the hole and the empty-entry cases agree within the VMA.

2026-07-20fs/proc/task_mmu: fix PAGEMAP_SCAN written state for unpopulated ptesKiryl Shutsemau (Meta)1-2/+12
PAGEMAP_SCAN reports an unpopulated pte differently depending on which path serves the request. The PAGE_IS_WRITTEN fast path in pagemap_scan_pmd_entry() reports a pte_none as written (and, under PM_SCAN_WP_MATCHING, arms a marker); pagemap_page_category() returns 0 for the same pte_none. A request that cannot take the fast path (an extra category bit, category_anyof_mask or category_inverted) therefore reports the pte as clean and skips arming it. A range that was populated and then MADV_DONTNEED'd reads as written via one mask and clean via another, and in the latter case is not re-armed for the next round -- an incremental-dump consumer (e.g. CRIU) using a richer mask drops the zapped range and stops tracking writes to it. Report pte_none as written in pagemap_page_category() too. A pte_none carries no uffd-wp marker, i.e. it is not write-protected -- the same condition under which the present and swap cases already report PAGE_IS_WRITTEN. The fast path applies no VMA test, so neither does this. The hugetlb and fully-unpopulated-PMD (no page table) scans have no PAGE_IS_WRITTEN fast path, so they do not exhibit the per-entry divergence and are left unchanged. Add a pagemap_ioctl selftest that populates a range, drops it with MADV_DONTNEED, and checks that the fast path and the generic (category_anyof_mask) path both report every page written.

Patch series "mm/hmm: A fix and a selftest", v3. Patch 1 fixes a stale warning present from the time when only migration softleaf entries were supported at the PMD level. Patch 2 adds some code into hmm-tests.c which exercises the pagemap path for PMD device-private entries. This patch (of 2): pagemap_pmd_range_thp() warns if a non-present PMD is not a migration entry. This became false once device-private entries at the PMD level were added. Therefore, remove the stale migration-only assertion.

2026-06-08fs/proc/task_mmu: fix hugetlb self-deadlock in pagemap_scan_pte_hole()Kiryl Shutsemau (Meta)1-1/+58
A PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl requesting PM_SCAN_WP_MATCHING on a hugetlb VMA hangs the calling thread, unkillably, as soon as the scan reaches an unpopulated part of the range: do_pagemap_scan() walk_page_range() walk_hugetlb_range() hugetlb_vma_lock_read() # take the vma lock for read ... pagemap_scan_pte_hole() # ... ->pte_hole() for a hole uffd_wp_range() change_protection() hugetlb_change_protection() hugetlb_vma_lock_write() # ... and block taking it for write walk_hugetlb_range() holds the hugetlb vma lock for read across the whole walk. A present entry goes to ->hugetlb_entry(); an unpopulated one goes to ->pte_hole(), i.e. pagemap_scan_pte_hole(). To write-protect the hole that handler calls uffd_wp_range(), which on a hugetlb VMA reaches hugetlb_change_protection() and takes the same vma lock for write. The thread then blocks in down_write() waiting for the read lock it is itself holding. The populated path avoids this: pagemap_scan_hugetlb_entry() write-protects the entry inline under the page-table lock and never enters hugetlb_change_protection(). Do the same for holes. Fault in the page table and install the uffd-wp marker directly with make_uffd_wp_huge_pte() under the page-table lock, rather than routing through uffd_wp_range(). That is the same sequence hugetlb_change_protection() runs for an unpopulated entry, minus the vma write lock -- which is safe to skip because PMD sharing is disabled on uffd-wp VMAs (hugetlb_unshare_all_pmds() runs at registration), leaving nothing for that lock to serialise against.

Patch series "userfaultfd/pagemap: pre-existing fixes". These are pre-existing bug fixes that were carried at the front of the userfaultfd RWP working-set-tracking series up to v5 [1]. Per review feedback that fixes should not sit in the middle of a feature series, they are split out and sent on their own; the RWP series is reposted rebased on top of this. All six were flagged by the Sashiko AI review of the RWP series and carry Reported-by: Sashiko AI review <sashiko-bot@kernel.org>. They are independent of RWP, apply to mm-new directly, and carry Cc: stable@. 1: fs/proc/task_mmu: a missing huge_ptep_modify_prot_start() in make_uffd_wp_huge_pte() can lose hardware Dirty/Accessed updates when PAGEMAP_SCAN write-protects a hugetlb PTE. 2: fs/proc/task_mmu: pagemap_scan_hugetlb_entry() compares the range against HPAGE_SIZE rather than the hstate page size, so it never write-protects gigantic hugetlb pages. 3: fs/proc/task_mmu: PAGEMAP_SCAN with PM_SCAN_WP_MATCHING over an unpopulated hugetlb range self-deadlocks -- pagemap_scan_pte_hole() calls uffd_wp_range() while walk_hugetlb_range() holds the hugetlb vma lock for read, and hugetlb_change_protection() then takes it for write. Install the marker inline instead. 4: mm/huge_memory: change_non_present_huge_pmd() drops pmd_swp_uffd_wp on a device-private PMD permission downgrade, silently losing the uffd-wp marker. 5: userfaultfd: must_wait() applies pte_write() to a locklessly read PTE without checking pte_present(), so swap/migration entries decode random offset bits and a thread can stay parked on a stale fault. 6: userfaultfd: __VMA_UFFD_FLAGS feeds VMA_UFFD_MINOR_BIT (41) to mk_vma_flags() unconditionally, an out-of-bounds write into the single-word vma_flags_t on 32-bit. Build the mask from config-gated per-mode masks so an unavailable bit is never materialised. This patch (of 6): make_uffd_wp_huge_pte() arms the UFFD_WP bit on a present HugeTLB PTE by calling huge_ptep_modify_prot_commit() with a ptent snapshot that was fetched without the corresponding huge_ptep_modify_prot_start(). The start helper is what atomically clears the entry so the kernel-owned snapshot stays consistent until the commit; without it, the hardware may set Dirty or Accessed in the live PTE between the original read and the commit, and huge_ptep_modify_prot_commit() (whose generic implementation just calls set_huge_pte_at()) then writes the stale snapshot back over the live hardware bits, losing the update. The non-hugetlb sibling make_uffd_wp_pte() does this correctly via ptep_modify_prot_start() / ptep_modify_prot_commit(). Mirror that pattern for the present-PTE branch.

2026-06-04fs/proc/task_mmu: read proc/pid/{smaps|numa_maps} under per-vma lockSuren Baghdasaryan1-39/+156
Patch series "use vma locks for proc/pid/{smaps|numa_maps} reads", v2. Use per-vma locks when reading /proc/pid/smaps and /proc/pid/numa_maps similar to /proc/pid/maps to reduce contention on central mmap_lock. One major difference between maps and smaps/numa_maps reading is that the latter executes page table walk which can't be done under RCU due to a possibility of sleeping. Therefore we drop RCU read lock before this walk while keeping the VMA locked. After the walk we retake RCU read lock, reset VMA iterator and proceed with the next VMA. The last two patches extend /proc/pid/maps test to cover /proc/pid/smaps reading during concurrent address space modification. This patch (of 3): proc/pid/{smaps|numa_maps} can be read using the combination of RCU and VMA read locks, similar to proc/pid/maps. RCU is required to safely traverse the VMA tree and VMA lock stabilizes the VMA being processed and the pagetable walk.

2026-03-06treewide: change inode->i_ino from unsigned long to u64Jeff Layton1-2/+2
On 32-bit architectures, unsigned long is only 32 bits wide, which causes 64-bit inode numbers to be silently truncated. Several filesystems (NFS, XFS, BTRFS, etc.) can generate inode numbers that exceed 32 bits, and this truncation can lead to inode number collisions and other subtle bugs on 32-bit systems. Change the type of inode->i_ino from unsigned long to u64 to ensure that inode numbers are always represented as 64-bit values regardless of architecture. Update all format specifiers treewide from %lu/%lx to %llu/%llx to match the new type, along with corresponding local variable types. This is the bulk treewide conversion. Earlier patches in this series handled trace events separately to allow trace field reordering for better struct packing on 32-bit.

2026-02-21Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argumentLinus Torvalds1-1/+1
This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using git grep -l '\<k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' | xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/' to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL argument to just drop that argument. Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered: they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically. For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate conversion. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union object instances: Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...) Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...) Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...) (where TYPE may also be *VAR) The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning "TYPE *". Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <kees@kernel.org>

2026-01-20mm: introduce generic lazy_mmu helpersKevin Brodsky1-2/+2
The implementation of the lazy MMU mode is currently entirely arch-specific; core code directly calls arch helpers: arch_{enter,leave}_lazy_mmu_mode(). We are about to introduce support for nested lazy MMU sections. As things stand we'd have to duplicate that logic in every arch implementing lazy_mmu - adding to a fair amount of logic already duplicated across lazy_mmu implementations. This patch therefore introduces a new generic layer that calls the existing arch_* helpers. Two pair of calls are introduced: * lazy_mmu_mode_enable() ... lazy_mmu_mode_disable() This is the standard case where the mode is enabled for a given block of code by surrounding it with enable() and disable() calls. * lazy_mmu_mode_pause() ... lazy_mmu_mode_resume() This is for situations where the mode is temporarily disabled by first calling pause() and then resume() (e.g. to prevent any batching from occurring in a critical section). The documentation in <linux/pgtable.h> will be updated in a subsequent patch. No functional change should be introduced at this stage. The implementation of enable()/resume() and disable()/pause() is currently identical, but nesting support will change that. Most of the call sites have been updated using the following Coccinelle script: @@ @@ { ... - arch_enter_lazy_mmu_mode(); + lazy_mmu_mode_enable(); ... - arch_leave_lazy_mmu_mode(); + lazy_mmu_mode_disable(); ... } @@ @@ { ... - arch_leave_lazy_mmu_mode(); + lazy_mmu_mode_pause(); ... - arch_enter_lazy_mmu_mode(); + lazy_mmu_mode_resume(); ... } A couple of notes regarding x86: * Xen is currently the only case where explicit handling is required for lazy MMU when context-switching. This is purely an implementation detail and using the generic lazy_mmu_mode_* functions would cause trouble when nesting support is introduced, because the generic functions must be called from the current task. For that reason we still use arch_leave() and arch_enter() there. * x86 calls arch_flush_lazy_mmu_mode() unconditionally in a few places, but only defines it if PARAVIRT_XXL is selected, and we are removing the fallback in <linux/pgtable.h>. Add a new fallback definition to <asm/pgtable.h> to keep things building.

2025-11-29mm: declare VMA flags by bitLorenzo Stoakes1-2/+2
Patch series "initial work on making VMA flags a bitmap", v3. We are in the rather silly situation that we are running out of VMA flags as they are currently limited to a system word in size. This leads to absurd situations where we limit features to 64-bit architectures only because we simply do not have the ability to add a flag for 32-bit ones. This is very constraining and leads to hacks or, in the worst case, simply an inability to implement features we want for entirely arbitrary reasons. This also of course gives us something of a Y2K type situation in mm where we might eventually exhaust all of the VMA flags even on 64-bit systems. This series lays the groundwork for getting away from this limitation by establishing VMA flags as a bitmap whose size we can increase in future beyond 64 bits if required. This is necessarily a highly iterative process given the extensive use of VMA flags throughout the kernel, so we start by performing basic steps. Firstly, we declare VMA flags by bit number rather than by value, retaining the VM_xxx fields but in terms of these newly introduced VMA_xxx_BIT fields. While we are here, we use sparse annotations to ensure that, when dealing with VMA bit number parameters, we cannot be passed values which are not declared as such - providing some useful type safety. We then introduce an opaque VMA flag type, much like the opaque mm_struct flag type introduced in commit bb6525f2f8c4 ("mm: add bitmap mm->flags field"), which we establish in union with vma->vm_flags (but still set at system word size meaning there is no functional or data type size change). We update the vm_flags_xxx() helpers to use this new bitmap, introducing sensible helpers to do so. This series lays the foundation for further work to expand the use of bitmap VMA flags and eventually eliminate these arbitrary restrictions. This patch (of 4): In order to lay the groundwork for VMA flags being a bitmap rather than a system word in size, we need to be able to consistently refer to VMA flags by bit number rather than value. Take this opportunity to do so in an enum which we which is additionally useful for tooling to extract metadata from. This additionally makes it very clear which bits are being used for what at a glance. We use the VMA_ prefix for the bit values as it is logical to do so since these reference VMAs. We consistently suffix with _BIT to make it clear what the values refer to. We declare bit values even when the flags that use them would not be enabled by config options as this is simply clearer and clearly defines what bit numbers are used for what, at no additional cost. We declare a sparse-bitwise type vma_flag_t which ensures that users can't pass around invalid VMA flags by accident and prepares for future work towards VMA flags being a bitmap where we want to ensure bit values are type safe. To make life easier, we declare some macro helpers - DECLARE_VMA_BIT() allows us to avoid duplication in the enum bit number declarations (and maintaining the sparse __bitwise attribute), and INIT_VM_FLAG() is used to assist with declaration of flags. Unfortunately we can't declare both in the enum, as we run into issue with logic in the kernel requiring that flags are preprocessor definitions, and additionally we cannot have a macro which declares another macro so we must define each flag macro directly. Additionally, update the VMA userland testing vma_internal.h header to include these changes. We also have to fix the parameters to the vma_flag_*_atomic() functions since VMA_MAYBE_GUARD_BIT is now of type vma_flag_t and sparse will complain otherwise. We have to update some rather silly if-deffery found in mm/task_mmu.c which would otherwise break. Finally, we update the rust binding helper as now it cannot auto-detect the flags at all.

2025-11-24mm: softdirty: add pgtable_supports_soft_dirty()Chunyan Zhang1-9/+6
Patch series "mm: Add soft-dirty and uffd-wp support for RISC-V", v15. This patchset adds support for Svrsw60t59b [1] extension which is ratified now, also add soft dirty and userfaultfd write protect tracking for RISC-V. The patches 1 and 2 add macros to allow architectures to define their own checks if the soft-dirty / uffd_wp PTE bits are available, in other words for RISC-V, the Svrsw60t59b extension is supported on which device the kernel is running. Also patch1-2 are removing "ifdef CONFIG_MEM_SOFT_DIRTY" "ifdef CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_USERFAULTFD_WP" and "ifdef CONFIG_PTE_MARKER_UFFD_WP" in favor of checks which if not overridden by the architecture, no change in behavior is expected. This patchset has been tested with kselftest mm suite in which soft-dirty, madv_populate, test_unmerge_uffd_wp, and uffd-unit-tests run and pass, and no regressions are observed in any of the other tests. This patch (of 6): Some platforms can customize the PTE PMD entry soft-dirty bit making it unavailable even if the architecture provides the resource. Add an API which architectures can define their specific implementations to detect if soft-dirty bit is available on which device the kernel is running. This patch is removing "ifdef CONFIG_MEM_SOFT_DIRTY" in favor of pgtable_supports_soft_dirty() checks that defaults to IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_MEM_SOFT_DIRTY), if not overridden by the architecture, no change in behavior is expected. We make sure to never set VM_SOFTDIRTY if !pgtable_supports_soft_dirty(), so we will never run into VM_SOFTDIRTY checks.

We are then able to eliminate pmd_to_swp_entry(), is_pmd_migration_entry(), is_pmd_device_private_entry() and is_pmd_non_present_folio_entry().

2025-11-24mm: avoid unnecessary use of is_swap_pmd()Lorenzo Stoakes1-3/+12
PMD 'non-swap' swap entries are currently used for PMD-level migration entries and device private entries. To add to the confusion in this terminology we use is_swap_pmd() in an inconsistent way similar to how is_swap_pte() was being used - sometimes adopting the convention that !pmd_none(), !pmd_present() implies PMD 'swap' entry, sometimes not. This patch handles the low-hanging fruit of cases where we can simply substitute other predicates for is_swap_pmd(). No functional change intended.

2025-11-24mm: avoid unnecessary uses of is_swap_pte()Lorenzo Stoakes1-15/+34
There's an established convention in the kernel that we treat PTEs as containing swap entries (and the unfortunately named non-swap swap entries) should they be neither empty (i.e. pte_none() evaluating true) nor present (i.e. pte_present() evaluating true). However, there is some inconsistency in how this is applied, as we also have the is_swap_pte() helper which explicitly performs this check: /* check whether a pte points to a swap entry */ static inline int is_swap_pte(pte_t pte) { return !pte_none(pte) && !pte_present(pte); } As this represents a predicate, and it's logical to assume that in order to establish that a PTE entry can correctly be manipulated as a swap/non-swap entry, this predicate seems as if it must first be checked. But we instead, we far more often utilise the established convention of checking pte_none() / pte_present() before operating on entries as if they were swap/non-swap. This patch works towards correcting this inconsistency by removing all uses of is_swap_pte() where we are already in a position where we perform pte_none()/pte_present() checks anyway or otherwise it is clearly logical to do so. We also take advantage of the fact that pte_swp_uffd_wp() is only set on swap entries. Additionally, update comments referencing to is_swap_pte() and non_swap_entry(). No functional change intended.

2025-11-24mm: introduce leaf entry type and use to simplify leaf entry logicLorenzo Stoakes1-13/+13
The kernel maintains leaf page table entries which contain either: The kernel maintains leaf page table entries which contain either: - Nothing ('none' entries) - Present entries* - Everything else that will cause a fault which the kernel handles * Present entries are either entries the hardware can navigate without page fault or special cases like NUMA hint protnone or PMD with cleared present bit which contain hardware-valid entries modulo the present bit. In the 'everything else' group we include swap entries, but we also include a number of other things such as migration entries, device private entries and marker entries. Unfortunately this 'everything else' group expresses everything through a swp_entry_t type, and these entries are referred to swap entries even though they may well not contain a... swap entry. This is compounded by the rather mind-boggling concept of a non-swap swap entry (checked via non_swap_entry()) and the means by which we twist and turn to satisfy this. This patch lays the foundation for reducing this confusion. We refer to 'everything else' as a 'software-define leaf entry' or 'softleaf'. for short And in fact we scoop up the 'none' entries into this concept also so we are left with: - Present entries. - Softleaf entries (which may be empty). This allows for radical simplification across the board - one can simply convert any leaf page table entry to a leaf entry via softleaf_from_pte(). If the entry is present, we return an empty leaf entry, so it is assumed the caller is aware that they must differentiate between the two categories of page table entries, checking for the former via pte_present(). As a result, we can eliminate a number of places where we would otherwise need to use predicates to see if we can proceed with leaf page table entry conversion and instead just go ahead and do it unconditionally. We do so where we can, adjusting surrounding logic as necessary to integrate the new softleaf_t logic as far as seems reasonable at this stage. We typedef swp_entry_t to softleaf_t for the time being until the conversion can be complete, meaning everything remains compatible regardless of which type is used. We will eventually remove swp_entry_t when the conversion is complete. We introduce a new header file to keep things clear - leafops.h - this imports swapops.h so can direct replace swapops imports without issue, and we do so in all the files that require it. Additionally, add new leafops.h file to core mm maintainers entry.

2025-11-20mm: introduce VM_MAYBE_GUARD and make visible in /proc/$pid/smapsLorenzo Stoakes1-0/+1
Patch series "introduce VM_MAYBE_GUARD and make it sticky", v4. Currently, guard regions are not visible to users except through /proc/$pid/pagemap, with no explicit visibility at the VMA level. This makes the feature less useful, as it isn't entirely apparent which VMAs may have these entries present, especially when performing actions which walk through memory regions such as those performed by CRIU. This series addresses this issue by introducing the VM_MAYBE_GUARD flag which fulfils this role, updating the smaps logic to display an entry for these. The semantics of this flag are that a guard region MAY be present if set (we cannot be sure, as we can't efficiently track whether an MADV_GUARD_REMOVE finally removes all the guard regions in a VMA) - but if not set the VMA definitely does NOT have any guard regions present. It's problematic to establish this flag without further action, because that means that VMAs with guard regions in them become non-mergeable with adjacent VMAs for no especially good reason. To work around this, this series also introduces the concept of 'sticky' VMA flags - that is flags which: a. if set in one VMA and not in another still permit those VMAs to be merged (if otherwise compatible). b. When they are merged, the resultant VMA must have the flag set. The VMA logic is updated to propagate these flags correctly. Additionally, VM_MAYBE_GUARD being an explicit VMA flag allows us to solve an issue with file-backed guard regions - previously these established an anon_vma object for file-backed mappings solely to have vma_needs_copy() correctly propagate guard region mappings to child processes. We introduce a new flag alias VM_COPY_ON_FORK (which currently only specifies VM_MAYBE_GUARD) and update vma_needs_copy() to check explicitly for this flag and to copy page tables if it is present, which resolves this issue. Additionally, we add the ability for allow-listed VMA flags to be atomically writable with only mmap/VMA read locks held. The only flag we allow so far is VM_MAYBE_GUARD, which we carefully ensure does not cause any races by being allowed to do so. This allows us to maintain guard region installation as a read-locked operation and not endure the overhead of obtaining a write lock here. Finally we introduce extensive VMA userland tests to assert that the sticky VMA logic behaves correctly as well as guard region self tests to assert that smaps visibility is correctly implemented. This patch (of 9): Currently, if a user needs to determine if guard regions are present in a range, they have to scan all VMAs (or have knowledge of which ones might have guard regions). Since commit 8e2f2aeb8b48 ("fs/proc/task_mmu: add guard region bit to pagemap") and the related commit a516403787e0 ("fs/proc: extend the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl to report guard regions"), users can use either /proc/$pid/pagemap or the PAGEMAP_SCAN functionality to perform this operation at a virtual address level. This is not ideal, and it gives no visibility at a /proc/$pid/smaps level that guard regions exist in ranges. This patch remedies the situation by establishing a new VMA flag, VM_MAYBE_GUARD, to indicate that a VMA may contain guard regions (it is uncertain because we cannot reasonably determine whether a MADV_GUARD_REMOVE call has removed all of the guard regions in a VMA, and additionally VMAs may change across merge/split). We utilise 0x800 for this flag which makes it available to 32-bit architectures also, a flag that was previously used by VM_DENYWRITE, which was removed in commit 8d0920bde5eb ("mm: remove VM_DENYWRITE") and hasn't bee reused yet. We also update the smaps logic and documentation to identify these VMAs. Another major use of this functionality is that we can use it to identify that we ought to copy page tables on fork. We do not actually implement usage of this flag in mm/madvise.c yet as we need to allow some VMA flags to be applied atomically under mmap/VMA read lock in order to avoid the need to acquire a write lock for this purpose.

2025-09-13mm/huge_memory: convert "tva_flags" to "enum tva_type"David Hildenbrand1-2/+2
When determining which THP orders are eligible for a VMA mapping, we have previously specified tva_flags, however it turns out it is really not necessary to treat these as flags. Rather, we distinguish between distinct modes. The only case where we previously combined flags was with TVA_ENFORCE_SYSFS, but we can avoid this by observing that this is the default, except for MADV_COLLAPSE or an edge cases in collapse_pte_mapped_thp() and hugepage_vma_revalidate(), and adding a mode specifically for this case - TVA_FORCED_COLLAPSE. We have: * smaps handling for showing "THPeligible" * Pagefault handling * khugepaged handling * Forced collapse handling: primarily MADV_COLLAPSE, but also for an edge case in collapse_pte_mapped_thp() Disregarding the edge cases, we only want to ignore sysfs settings only when we are forcing a collapse through MADV_COLLAPSE, otherwise we want to enforce it, hence this patch does the following flag to enum conversions: * TVA_SMAPS | TVA_ENFORCE_SYSFS -> TVA_SMAPS * TVA_IN_PF | TVA_ENFORCE_SYSFS -> TVA_PAGEFAULT * TVA_ENFORCE_SYSFS -> TVA_KHUGEPAGED * 0 -> TVA_FORCED_COLLAPSE With this change, we immediately know if we are in the forced collapse case, which will be valuable next.

2025-09-13fs/proc/task_mmu: execute PROCMAP_QUERY ioctl under per-vma locksSuren Baghdasaryan1-18/+85
Utilize per-vma locks to stabilize vma after lookup without taking mmap_lock during PROCMAP_QUERY ioctl execution. If vma lock is contended, we fall back to mmap_lock but take it only momentarily to lock the vma and release the mmap_lock. In a very unlikely case of vm_refcnt overflow, this fall back path will fail and ioctl is done under mmap_lock protection. This change is designed to reduce mmap_lock contention and prevent PROCMAP_QUERY ioctl calls from blocking address space updates.

The commit 65c66047259f ("proc: fix the issue of proc_mem_open returning NULL") caused proc_maps_open() to return -ESRCH when proc_mem_open() returns NULL. This breaks legitimate /proc/<pid>/maps access for kernel threads since kernel threads have NULL mm_struct. The regression causes perf to fail and exit when profiling a kernel thread: # perf record -v -g -p $(pgrep kswapd0) ... couldn't open /proc/65/task/65/maps This patch partially reverts the commit to fix it.

2025-07-24fs/proc/task_mmu: read proc/pid/maps under per-vma lockSuren Baghdasaryan1-8/+133
With maple_tree supporting vma tree traversal under RCU and per-vma locks, /proc/pid/maps can be read while holding individual vma locks instead of locking the entire address space. A completely lockless approach (walking vma tree under RCU) would be quite complex with the main issue being get_vma_name() using callbacks which might not work correctly with a stable vma copy, requiring original (unstable) vma - see special_mapping_name() for example. When per-vma lock acquisition fails, we take the mmap_lock for reading, lock the vma, release the mmap_lock and continue. This fallback to mmap read lock guarantees the reader to make forward progress even during lock contention. This will interfere with the writer but for a very short time while we are acquiring the per-vma lock and only when there was contention on the vma reader is interested in. We shouldn't see a repeated fallback to mmap read locks in practice, as this require a very unlikely series of lock contentions (for instance due to repeated vma split operations). However even if this did somehow happen, we would still progress. One case requiring special handling is when a vma changes between the time it was found and the time it got locked. A problematic case would be if a vma got shrunk so that its vm_start moved higher in the address space and a new vma was installed at the beginning: reader found: |--------VMA A--------| VMA is modified: |-VMA B-|----VMA A----| reader locks modified VMA A reader reports VMA A: | gap |----VMA A----| This would result in reporting a gap in the address space that does not exist. To prevent this we retry the lookup after locking the vma, however we do that only when we identify a gap and detect that the address space was changed after we found the vma. This change is designed to reduce mmap_lock contention and prevent a process reading /proc/pid/maps files (often a low priority task, such as monitoring/data collection services) from blocking address space updates. Note that this change has a userspace visible disadvantage: it allows for sub-page data tearing as opposed to the previous mechanism where data tearing could happen only between pages of generated output data. Since current userspace considers data tearing between pages to be acceptable, we assume is will be able to handle sub-page data tearing as well.

Back in 2.6 era, last_addr used to be stored in seq_file->version variable, which was unsigned long. As a result, sentinels to represent gate vma and end of all vmas used unsigned values. In more recent kernels we don't used seq_file->version anymore and therefore conversion from loff_t into unsigned type is not needed. Similarly, sentinel values don't need to be unsigned. Remove type conversion for set_file position and change sentinel values to signed. While at it, change the hardcoded sentinel values with named definitions for better documentation.

2025-07-09mm: fix the inaccurate memory statistics issue for usersBaolin Wang1-7/+7
On some large machines with a high number of CPUs running a 64K pagesize kernel, we found that the 'RES' field is always 0 displayed by the top command for some processes, which will cause a lot of confusion for users. PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 875525 root 20 0 12480 0 0 R 0.3 0.0 0:00.08 top 1 root 20 0 172800 0 0 S 0.0 0.0 0:04.52 systemd The main reason is that the batch size of the percpu counter is quite large on these machines, caching a significant percpu value, since converting mm's rss stats into percpu_counter by commit f1a7941243c1 ("mm: convert mm's rss stats into percpu_counter"). Intuitively, the batch number should be optimized, but on some paths, performance may take precedence over statistical accuracy. Therefore, introducing a new interface to add the percpu statistical count and display it to users, which can remove the confusion. In addition, this change is not expected to be on a performance-critical path, so the modification should be acceptable. In addition, the 'mm->rss_stat' is updated by using add_mm_counter() and dec/inc_mm_counter(), which are all wrappers around percpu_counter_add_batch(). In percpu_counter_add_batch(), there is percpu batch caching to avoid 'fbc->lock' contention. This patch changes task_mem() and task_statm() to get the accurate mm counters under the 'fbc->lock', but this should not exacerbate kernel 'mm->rss_stat' lock contention due to the percpu batch caching of the mm counters. The following test also confirm the theoretical analysis. I run the stress-ng that stresses anon page faults in 32 threads on my 32 cores machine, while simultaneously running a script that starts 32 threads to busy-loop pread each stress-ng thread's /proc/pid/status interface. From the following data, I did not observe any obvious impact of this patch on the stress-ng tests. w/o patch: stress-ng: info: [6848] 4,399,219,085,152 CPU Cycles 67.327 B/sec stress-ng: info: [6848] 1,616,524,844,832 Instructions 24.740 B/sec (0.367 instr. per cycle) stress-ng: info: [6848] 39,529,792 Page Faults Total 0.605 M/sec stress-ng: info: [6848] 39,529,792 Page Faults Minor 0.605 M/sec w/patch: stress-ng: info: [2485] 4,462,440,381,856 CPU Cycles 68.382 B/sec stress-ng: info: [2485] 1,615,101,503,296 Instructions 24.750 B/sec (0.362 instr. per cycle) stress-ng: info: [2485] 39,439,232 Page Faults Total 0.604 M/sec stress-ng: info: [2485] 39,439,232 Page Faults Minor 0.604 M/sec On comparing a very simple app which just allocates & touches some memory against v6.1 (which doesn't have f1a7941243c1) and latest Linus tree (4c06e63b9203) I can see that on latest Linus tree the values for VmRSS, RssAnon and RssFile from /proc/self/status are all zeroes while they do report values on v6.1 and a Linus tree with this patch.

2025-06-25fs/proc/task_mmu: fix PAGE_IS_PFNZERO detection for the huge zero folioDavid Hildenbrand1-1/+1
is_zero_pfn() does not work for the huge zero folio. Fix it by using is_huge_zero_pmd(). This can cause the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl against /proc/pid/pagemap to present pages as PAGE_IS_PRESENT rather than as PAGE_IS_PFNZERO. Found by code inspection.

2025-05-11proc: fix the issue of proc_mem_open returning NULLPenglei Jiang1-6/+6
proc_mem_open() can return an errno, NULL, or mm_struct*. If it fails to acquire mm, it returns NULL, but the caller does not check for the case when the return value is NULL. The following conditions lead to failure in acquiring mm: - The task is a kernel thread (PF_KTHREAD) - The task is exiting (PF_EXITING) Changes: - Add documentation comments for the return value of proc_mem_open(). - Add checks in the caller to return -ESRCH when proc_mem_open() returns NULL.

2025-05-11fs/proc: extend the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl to report guard regionsAndrei Vagin1-7/+10
Patch series "fs/proc: extend the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl to report guard regions", v2. Introduce the PAGE_IS_GUARD flag in the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl to expose information about guard regions. This allows userspace tools, such as CRIU, to detect and handle guard regions. Currently, CRIU utilizes PAGEMAP_SCAN as a more efficient alternative to parsing /proc/pid/pagemap. Without this change, guard regions are incorrectly reported as swap-anon regions, leading CRIU to attempt dumping them and subsequently failing. The series includes updates to the documentation and selftests to reflect the new functionality. This patch (of 3): Introduce the PAGE_IS_GUARD flag in the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl to expose information about guard regions. This allows userspace tools, such as CRIU, to detect and handle guard regions.

2025-03-17fs/proc/task_mmu: remove per-page mapcount dependency for smaps/smaps_rollup ↵David Hildenbrand1-2/+15
(CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT) Let's implement an alternative when per-page mapcounts in large folios are no longer maintained -- soon with CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT. When computing the output for smaps / smaps_rollups, in particular when calculating the USS (Unique Set Size) and the PSS (Proportional Set Size), we still rely on per-page mapcounts. To determine private vs. shared, we'll use folio_likely_mapped_shared(), similar to how we handle PM_MMAP_EXCLUSIVE. Similarly, we might now under-estimate the USS and count pages towards "shared" that are actually "private" ("exclusively mapped"). When calculating the PSS, we'll now also use the average per-page mapcount for large folios: this can result in both, an over-estimation and an under-estimation of the PSS. The difference is not expected to matter much in practice, but we'll have to learn as we go. We can now provide folio_precise_page_mapcount() only with CONFIG_PAGE_MAPCOUNT, and remove one of the last users of per-page mapcounts when CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT is enabled. Document the new behavior.

2025-03-17fs/proc/task_mmu: remove per-page mapcount dependency for "mapmax" ↵David Hildenbrand1-1/+6
(CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT) Let's implement an alternative when per-page mapcounts in large folios are no longer maintained -- soon with CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT. For calculating "mapmax", we now use the average per-page mapcount in a large folio instead of the per-page mapcount. For hugetlb folios and folios that are not partially mapped into MMs, there is no change. Likely, this change will not matter much in practice, and an alternative might be to simple remove this stat with CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT. However, there might be value to it, so let's keep it like that and document the behavior.
