We'll need access to the destination MM when modifying the large mapcount
of a non-hugetlb large folios next. So pass in the destination VMA.

Let's free up some space on 32bit in page[1] by moving the _pincount to
page[2].
Ordinary folios only use the entire mapcount with PMD mappings, so order-1
folios don't apply. Similarly, hugetlb folios are always larger than
order-1, turning the entire mapcount essentially unused for all order-1
folios. Moving it to order-1 folios will not change anything.
On 32bit, simply check in folio_entire_mapcount() whether we have an
order-1 folio, and return 0 in that case.
Note that THPs on 32bit are not particularly common (and we don't care too
much about performance), but we want to keep it working reliably, because
likely we want to use large folios there as well in the future,
independent of PMD leaf support.
Once we dynamically allocate "struct folio", the 32bit specifics will go
away again; even small folios could then have a pincount.

Let's free up some space on 32bit in page[1] by moving the _pincount to
page[2].
For order-1 folios (never anon folios!) on 32bit, we will now also use the
GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS approach. A fully-mapped order-1 folio requires 2
references. With GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS being 1024, we'd detect such
folios as "maybe pinned" with 512 full mappings, instead of 1024 for
order-0. As anon folios are out of the picture (which are the most
relevant users of checking for pinnings on *mapped* pages) and we are
talking about 32bit, this is not expected to cause any trouble.
In __dump_page(), copy one additional folio page if we detect a folio with
an order > 1, so we can dump the pincount on order > 1 folios reliably.
Note that THPs on 32bit are not particularly common (and we don't care too
much about performance), but we want to keep it working reliably, because
likely we want to use large folios there as well in the future,
independent of PMD leaf support.
Once we dynamically allocate "struct folio", fortunately the 32bit
specifics will likely go away again; even small folios could then have a
pincount and folio_has_pincount() would essentially always return "true".

Let's just move the hugetlb specific stuff to a separate page, and stop
letting it overlay other fields for now.
This frees up some space in page[2], which we will use on 32bit to free up
some space in page[1]. While we could move these things to page[3]
instead, it's cleaner to just move the hugetlb specific things out of the
way and pack the core-folio stuff as tight as possible. ... and we can
minimize the work required in dump_folio.
We can now avoid re-initializing &folio->_deferred_list in hugetlb code.
Hopefully dynamically allocating "strut folio" in the future will further
clean this up.

Let's free up some more of the "unconditionally available on 64BIT" space
in order-1 folios by letting _folio_nr_pages overlay memcg_data in the
first tail page (second folio page). Consequently, we have the
optimization now whenever we have CONFIG_MEMCG, independent of 64BIT.
We have to make sure that page->memcg on tail pages does not return
"surprises". page_memcg_check() already properly refuses PageTail().
Let's do that earlier in print_page_owner_memcg() to avoid printing wrong
"Slab cache page" information. No other code should touch that field on
tail pages of compound pages.
Reset the "_nr_pages" to 0 when splitting folios, or when freeing them
back to the buddy (to avoid false page->memcg_data "bad page" reports).
Note that in __split_huge_page(), folio_nr_pages() would stop working
already as soon as we start messing with the subpages.
Most kernel configs should have at least CONFIG_MEMCG enabled, even if
disabled at runtime. 64byte "struct memmap" is what we usually have on
64BIT.
While at it, rename "_folio_nr_pages" to "_nr_pages".
Hopefully memdescs / dynamically allocating "strut folio" in the future
will further clean this up, e.g., making _nr_pages available in all
configs and maybe even in small folios. Doing that should be fairly easy
on top of this change.

Finish refactoring the page table logic by threading the PMC state
throughout the operation, allowing us to control the operation as we go.
Additionally, update the old_addr, new_addr fields in move_page_tables()
as we progress through the process making use of the fact we have this
state object now to track this.
With these changes made, not only is the code far more readable, but we
can finally transmit state throughout the entire operation, which lays the
groundwork for sensibly making changes in future to how the mremap()
operation is performed.
Additionally take the opportunity to refactor the means of determining the
progress of the operation, abstracting this to pmc_progress() and
simplifying the logic to make it clearer what's going on.

A lot of state is threaded throughout the page table moving logic within
the mremap code, including boolean values which control behaviour
specifically in regard to whether rmap locks need be held over the
operation and whether the VMA belongs to a temporary stack being moved by
move_arg_pages() (and consequently, relocate_vma_down()).
As we already transmit state throughout this operation, it is neater and
more readable to maintain a small state object. We do so in the form of
pagetable_move_control.
In addition, this allows us to update parameters within the state as we
manipulate things, for instance with regard to the page table realignment
logic.
In future I want to add additional functionality to the page table logic,
so this is an additional motivation for making it easier to do so.
This patch changes move_page_tables() to accept a pointer to a
pagetable_move_control struct, and performs changes at this level only.
Further page table logic will be updated in a subsequent patch.
We additionally also take the opportunity to add significant comments
describing the address realignment logic to make it abundantly clear what
is going on in this code.

We invoke ksm_madvise() with an intentionally dummy flags field, so no
need to pass around.
Additionally, the code tries to be 'clever' with account_start,
account_end, using these to both check that vma->vm_start != 0 and that we
ought to account the newly split portion of VMA post-move, either before
or after it.
We need to do this because we intentionally removed VM_ACCOUNT on the VMA
prior to unmapping, so we don't erroneously unaccount memory (we have
already calculated the correct amount to account and accounted it, any
subsequent subtraction will be incorrect).
This patch significantly expands the comment (from 2002!) about
'concealing' the flag to make it abundantly clear what's going on, as well
as adding and expanding a number of other comments also.
We can remove account_start, account_end by instead tracking when we
account (i.e. vma->vm_flags has the VM_ACCOUNT flag set, and this is not
an MREMAP_DONTUNMAP operation), and figuring out when to reinstate the
VM_ACCOUNT flag on prior/subsequent VMAs separately.
We additionally break the function into logical pieces and attack the very
confusing error handling logic (where, for instance, new_addr is set to
err).
After this change the code is considerably more readable and easy to
manipulate.

Update move_vma() to use the threaded VRM object, de-duplicate code and
separate into smaller functions to aid readability and debug-ability.
This in turn allows further simplification of expand_vma() as we can
simply thread VRM through the function.
We also take the opportunity to abstract the account charging page count
into the VRM in order that we can correctly thread this through the
operation.
We additionally do the same for tracking mm statistics - exec_vm,
stack_vm, data_vm, and locked_vm.
As part of this change, we slightly modify when locked pages statistics
are counted for in mm_struct statistics. However this should cause no
issues, as there is no chance of underflow, nor will any rlimit failures
occur as a result.
This is an intermediate step before a further refactoring of move_vma() in
order to aid review.

A number of mremap() calls both pass around and modify a large number of
parameters, making the code less readable and often repeatedly having to
determine things such as VMA, size delta, and more.
Avoid this by using the common pattern of passing a state object through
the operation, updating it as we go. We introduce the vma_remap_struct or
'VRM' for this purpose.
This also gives us the ability to accumulate further state through the
operation that would otherwise require awkward and error-prone pointer
passing.
We can also now trivially define helper functions that operate on a VRM
object.
This pattern has proven itself to be very powerful when implemented for
VMA merge, VMA unmapping and memory mapping operations, so it is
battle-tested and functional.
We both introduce the data structure and use it, introducing helper
functions as needed to make things readable, we move some state such as
mmap lock and mlock() status to the VRM, we introduce a means of
classifying the type of mremap() operation and de-duplicate the
get_unmapped_area() lookup.
We also neatly thread userfaultfd state throughout the operation.
Note that there is further refactoring to be done, chiefly adjust
move_vma() to accept a VRM parameter. We defer this as there is
pre-requisite work required to be able to do so which we will do in a
subsequent patch.

Place checks into a separate function so the mremap() system call is less
egregiously long, remove unnecessary mremap_to() offset_in_page() check
and just check that earlier so we keep all such basic checks together.
Separate out the VMA in-place expansion, hugetlb and expand/move logic
into separate, readable functions.
De-duplicate code where possible, add comments and ensure that all error
handling explicitly specifies the error at the point of it occurring
rather than setting a prefixed error value and implicitly setting (which
is bug prone).
This lays the groundwork for subsequent patches further simplifying and
extending the mremap() implementation.

Patch series "refactor mremap and fix bug", v3.
The existing mremap() logic has grown organically over a very long period
of time, resulting in code that is in many parts, very difficult to follow
and full of subtleties and sources of confusion.
In addition, it is difficult to thread state through the operation
correctly, as function arguments have expanded, some parameters are
expected to be temporarily altered during the operation, others are
intended to remain static and some can be overridden.
This series completely refactors the mremap implementation, sensibly
separating functions, adding comments to explain the more subtle aspects
of the implementation and making use of small structs to thread state
through everything.
The reason for doing so is to lay the groundwork for planned future
changes to the mremap logic, changes which require the ability to easily
pass around state.
Additionally, it would be unhelpful to add yet more logic to code that is
already difficult to follow without first refactoring it like this.
The first patch in this series additionally fixes a bug when a VMA with
start address zero is partially remapped.
Tested on real hardware under heavy workload and all self tests are
passing.
This patch (of 3):
Consider the case of a partial mremap() (that results in a VMA split) of
an accountable VMA (i.e. which has the VM_ACCOUNT flag set) whose start
address is zero, with the MREMAP_MAYMOVE flag specified and a scenario
where a move does in fact occur:
addr end
| |
v v
|-------------|
| vma |
|-------------|
0
This move is affected by unmapping the range [addr, end). In order to
prevent an incorrect decrement of accounted memory which has already been
determined, the mremap() code in move_vma() clears VM_ACCOUNT from the VMA
prior to doing so, before reestablishing it in each of the VMAs
post-split:
addr end
| |
v v
|---| |---|
| A | | B |
|---| |---|
Commit 6b73cff239e5 ("mm: change munmap splitting order and move_vma()")
changed this logic such as to determine whether there is a need to do so
by establishing account_start and account_end and, in the instance where
such an operation is required, assigning them to vma->vm_start and
vma->vm_end.
Later the code checks if the operation is required for 'A' referenced
above thusly:
if (account_start) {
...
}
However, if the VMA described above has vma->vm_start == 0, which is now
assigned to account_start, this branch will not be executed.
As a result, the VMA 'A' above will remain stripped of its VM_ACCOUNT
flag, incorrectly.
The fix is to simply convert these variables to booleans and set them as
required.

Device DAX pages are currently not reference counted when mapped, instead
relying on the devmap PTE bit to ensure mapping code will not get/put
references. This requires special handling in various page table walkers,
particularly GUP, to manage references on the underlying pgmap to ensure
the pages remain valid.
However there is no reason these pages can't be refcounted properly at map
time. Doning so eliminates the need for the devmap PTE bit, freeing up a
precious PTE bit. It also simplifies GUP as it no longer needs to manage
the special pgmap references and can instead just treat the pages normally
as defined by vm_normal_page().

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.

Currently DAX folio/page reference counts are managed differently to
normal pages. To allow these to be managed the same as normal pages
introduce vmf_insert_folio_pmd. This will map the entire PMD-sized folio
and take references as it would for a normally mapped page.
This is distinct from the current mechanism, vmf_insert_pfn_pmd, which
simply inserts a special devmap PMD entry into the page table without
holding a reference to the page for the mapping.
It is not currently useful to implement a more generic vmf_insert_folio()
which selects the correct behaviour based on folio_order(). This is
because PTE faults require only a subpage of the folio to be PTE mapped
rather than the entire folio. It would be possible to add this context
somewhere but callers already need to handle PTE faults and PMD faults
separately so a more generic function is not useful.

The rmap doesn't currently support adding a PUD mapping of a folio. This
patch adds support for entire PUD mappings of folios, primarily to allow
for more standard refcounting of device DAX folios. Currently DAX is the
only user of this and it doesn't require support for partially mapped
PUD-sized folios so we don't support for that for now.

Currently to map a DAX page the DAX driver calls vmf_insert_pfn. This
creates a special devmap PTE entry for the pfn but does not take a
reference on the underlying struct page for the mapping. This is because
DAX page refcounts are treated specially, as indicated by the presence of
a devmap entry.
To allow DAX page refcounts to be managed the same as normal page
refcounts introduce vmf_insert_page_mkwrite(). This will take a reference
on the underlying page much the same as vmf_insert_page, except it also
permits upgrading an existing mapping to be writable if
requested/possible.

In preparation for using insert_page() for DAX, enhance
insert_page_into_pte_locked() to handle establishing writable mappings.
Recall that DAX returns VM_FAULT_NOPAGE after installing a PTE which
bypasses the typical set_pte_range() in finish_fault.

Zone device pages are used to represent various type of device memory
managed by device drivers. Currently compound zone device pages are not
supported. This is because MEMORY_DEVICE_FS_DAX pages are the only user
of higher order zone device pages and have their own page reference
counting.
A future change will unify FS DAX reference counting with normal page
reference counting rules and remove the special FS DAX reference counting.
Supporting that requires compound zone device pages.
Supporting compound zone device pages requires compound_head() to
distinguish between head and tail pages whilst still preserving the
special struct page fields that are specific to zone device pages.
A tail page is distinguished by having bit zero being set in
page->compound_head, with the remaining bits pointing to the head page.
For zone device pages page->compound_head is shared with page->pgmap.
The page->pgmap field must be common to all pages within a folio, even if
the folio spans memory sections. Therefore pgmap is the same for both
head and tail pages and can be moved into the folio and we can use the
standard scheme to find compound_head from a tail page.

Currently ZONE_DEVICE page reference counts are initialised by core memory
management code in __init_zone_device_page() as part of the memremap()
call which driver modules make to obtain ZONE_DEVICE pages. This
initialises page refcounts to 1 before returning them to the driver.
This was presumably done because it drivers had a reference of sorts on
the page. It also ensured the page could always be mapped with
vm_insert_page() for example and would never get freed (ie. have a zero
refcount), freeing drivers of manipulating page reference counts.
However it complicates figuring out whether or not a page is free from the
mm perspective because it is no longer possible to just look at the
refcount. Instead the page type must be known and if GUP is used a
secondary pgmap reference is also sometimes needed.
To simplify this it is desirable to remove the page reference count for
the driver, so core mm can just use the refcount without having to account
for page type or do other types of tracking. This is possible because
drivers can always assume the page is valid as core kernel will never
offline or remove the struct page.
This means it is now up to drivers to initialise the page refcount as
required. P2PDMA uses vm_insert_page() to map the page, and that requires
a non-zero reference count when initialising the page so set that when the
page is first mapped.

Prior to any truncation operations file systems call dax_break_mapping()
to ensure pages in the range are not under going DMA. Later DAX
page-cache entries will be removed by truncate_folio_batch_exceptionals()
in the generic page-cache code.
However this makes it possible for folios to be removed from the
page-cache even though they are still DMA busy if the file-system hasn't
called dax_break_mapping(). It also means they can never be waited on in
future because FS DAX will lose track of them once the page-cache entry
has been deleted.
Instead it is better to delete the FS DAX entry when the file-system calls
dax_break_mapping() as part of it's truncate operation. This ensures only
idle pages can be removed from the FS DAX page-cache and makes it easy to
detect if a file-system hasn't called dax_break_mapping() prior to a
truncate operation.

Use the new object read/write APIs instead of mapping APIs.
On compress side, zpool_obj_write() is more concise and provides exactly
what zswap needs to write the compressed object to the zpool, instead of
map->copy->unmap.
On the decompress side, zpool_obj_read_begin() is sleepable, which
allows avoiding the memcpy() for zsmalloc and slightly simplifying the
code by:
- Avoiding checking if the zpool driver is sleepable, reducing special
cases and shrinking the huge comment.
- Having a single zpool_obj_read_end() call rather than multiple
conditional zpool_unmap_handle() calls.
The !virt_addr_valid() case can be removed in the future if the crypto API
supports kmap addresses or by using kmap_to_page(), completely eliminating
the memcpy() path in zswap_decompress(). This a step toward that. In
that spirit, opportunistically make the comment more specific about the
kmap case instead of generic non-linear addresses. This is the only case
that needs to be handled in practice, and the generic comment makes it
seem like a bigger problem that it actually is.

installed filters
Decide whether to allow or reject by default on core and opertions layer
handled filters evaluation stages. It is decided as the opposite of the
last installed filter's behavior. If there is no filter at all, allow by
default. If there is any operations layer handled filters, core layer's
filtering stage sets allowing as the default behavior regardless of the
last filter of core layer-handling ones, since the last filter of core
layer handled filters in the case is not really the last filter of the
entire filtering stage.
Also, make the core layer's DAMOS filters handling stage uses the newly

damos->ops_filters has introduced to be used for all operations layer
handled filters. But DAMON kernel API callers can put any type of DAMOS
filters to any of damos->filters and damos->ops_filters. DAMON user-space
ABI users have no way to use ->ops_filters at all. Update
damos_add_filter(), which should be used by API callers to install DAMOS
filters, to add filters to ->filters and ->ops_filters depending on their
handling layer. The change forces both API callers and ABI users to use
proper lists since ABI users use the API internally.

Patch series "mm/damon: make allow filters after reject filters useful and
intuitive".
DAMOS filters do allow or reject elements of memory for given DAMOS scheme
only if those match the filter criterias. For elements that don't match
any DAMOS filter, 'allowing' is the default behavior. This makes
allow-filters that don't have any reject-filter after them meaningless
sources of overhead. The decision was made to keep the behavior
consistent with that before the introduction of allow-filters. This,
however, makes usage of DAMOS filters confusing and inefficient. It is
more intuitive and still consistent behavior to reject by default unless
there is no filter at all or the last filter is a reject filter. Update
the filtering logic in the way and update documents to clarify the
behavior.
Note that this is changing the old behavior. But the old behavior for the
problematic filter combination was definitely confusing, inefficient and
anyway useless. Also, the behavior has relatively recently introduced.
It is difficult to anticipate any user that depends on the behavior.
Hence this is not a user-breaking behavior change but an obvious
improvement.
This patch (of 9):
DAMOS filters can be categorized into two groups depending on which layer
they are handled, namely core layer and ops layer. The groups are
important because the filtering behavior depends on evaluation sequence of
filters, and core layer-handled filters are evaluated before operations
layer-handled ones.
The behavior is clearly documented, but the implementation is bit
inefficient and complicated. All filters are maintained in a single list
(damos->filters) in mix. Filters evaluation logics in core layer and
operations layer iterates all the filters on the list, while skipping
filters that should be not handled by the layer of the logic. It is
inefficient. Making future extensions having differentiations for filters
of different handling layers will also be complicated.
Add a new list that will be used for having all operations layer-handled
DAMOS filters to DAMOS scheme data structure. Also add the support of its
initialization and basic traversal functions.

In the commit dcc25ae76eb7 ("writeback: move global_dirty_limit into
wb_domain") of the cgroup writeback backpressure propagation patchset,
Tejun made some adaptations to trace_balance_dirty_pages() for cgroup
writeback. However, this adaptation was incomplete and Tejun missed
further adaptation in the subsequent patches.
In the cgroup writeback scenario, if sdtc in balance_dirty_pages() is
assigned to mdtc, then upon entering trace_balance_dirty_pages(),
__entry->limit should be assigned based on the dirty_limit of the
corresponding memcg's wb_domain, rather than global_wb_domain.
To address this issue and simplify the implementation, introduce a 'limit'
field in struct dirty_throttle_control to store the hard_limit value
computed in wb_position_ratio() by calling hard_dirty_limit(). This field
will then be used in trace_balance_dirty_pages() to assign the value to
__entry->limit.

Patch series "Fix calculations in trace_balance_dirty_pages() for cgwb", v2.
In my experiment, I found that the output of trace_balance_dirty_pages()
in the cgroup writeback scenario was strange because
trace_balance_dirty_pages() always uses global_wb_domain.dirty_limit for
related calculations instead of the dirty_limit of the corresponding
memcg's wb_domain.
The basic idea of the fix is to store the hard dirty limit value computed
in wb_position_ratio() into struct dirty_throttle_control and use it for
calculations in trace_balance_dirty_pages().
This patch (of 3):
Currently, trace_balance_dirty_pages() already has 12 parameters. In the
patch #3, I initially attempted to introduce an additional parameter.
However, in include/linux/trace_events.h, bpf_trace_run12() only supports
up to 12 parameters and bpf_trace_run13() does not exist.
To reduce the number of parameters in trace_balance_dirty_pages(), we can
make it accept a pointer to struct dirty_throttle_control as a parameter.
To achieve this, we need to move the definition of struct
dirty_throttle_control from mm/page-writeback.c to
include/linux/writeback.h.

Patch series "Add a command line option that enables control of how many
threads should be used to allocate huge pages", v2.
Allocating huge pages can take a very long time on servers with terabytes
of memory even when they are allocated at boot time where the allocation
happens in parallel.
Before this series, the kernel used a hard coded value of 2 threads per
NUMA node for these allocations. This value might have been good enough
in the past but it is not sufficient to fully utilize newer systems.
This series changes the default so the kernel uses 25% of the available
hardware threads for these allocations. In addition, we allow the user
that wish to micro-optimize the allocation time to override this value via
a new kernel parameter.
We tested this on 2 generations of Xeon CPUs and the results show a big
improvement of the overall allocation time.
+-----------------------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+
| threads | 8 | 16 | 32 | 64 | 128 |
+-----------------------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+
| skylake 144 cpus | 44s | 22s | 16s | 19s | 20s |
| cascade lake 192 cpus | 39s | 20s | 11s | 10s | 9s |
+-----------------------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+
On skylake, we see an improvment of 2.75x when using 32 threads, on
cascade lake we can get even better at 4.3x when we use 128 threads.
This speedup is quite significant and users of large machines like these
should have the option to make the machines boot as fast as possible.
This patch (of 3):
Before this patch, the kernel currently used a hard coded value of 2
threads per NUMA node for these allocations.
This patch changes this policy and the kernel now uses 25% of the
available hardware threads for the allocations.

there is no need to maintain it in v2. The oom report does expose failcnt

MEMCG_SWAP_MAX event counters which can be used.

Patch series "page_counter cleanup and size reduction".
Commit c6f53ed8f213a ("mm, memcg: cg2 memory{.swap,}.peak write handlers")
accidently increased the size of struct page_counter. This series
rearrange the fields to reduce its size and also has some cleanups.
This patch (of 3):
Memcg-v1 does not support memory protection (min/low) and thus there is no
need to track protected memory usage for it.

There's lots of text here but it's a little hard to follow, this is an
attempt to break it up and align its structure more closely with the code.
Reword the top-level function comment to just explain what question the
function answers from the point of view of the caller.
Break up the internal logic into different sections that can have their
own commentary describing why that part of the rationale is present.
Note the page_group_by_mobility_disabled logic is not explained in the
commentary, that is outside the scope of this patch...
