mm/zswap.c: allow handling just same-value filled pages
Zswap has an ability to efficiently store same-value filled pages, which can be turned on and off using the "same_filled_pages_enabled" parameter. However, there is currently no way to enable just this (lightweight) functionality, while not making use of the whole compressed page storage machinery. Add a "non_same_filled_pages_enabled" parameter which allows disabling handling of pages that aren't same-value filled. This way zswap can be run in such lightweight same-value filled pages only mode.

mm/thp: ClearPageDoubleMap in first page_add_file_rmap()
PageDoubleMap is maintained differently for anon and for shmem+file: the
shmem+file one was never cleared, because a safe place to do so could
not be found; so it would blight future use of the cached hugepage until
evicted.
See https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/1571938066-29031-1-git-send-email-yang.shi@linux.alibaba.com/
But page_add_file_rmap() does provide a safe place to do so (though later
than one might wish): allowing testing to return to an initial state
without a damaging drop_caches.

mm: only re-generate demotion targets when a numa node changes its N_CPU state
Abhishek reported that after patch [1], hotplug operations are taking
roughly double the expected time. [2]
The reason behind is that the CPU callbacks that
migrate_on_reclaim_init() sets always call set_migration_target_nodes()
whenever a CPU is brought up/down.
But we only care about numa nodes going from having cpus to become
cpuless, and vice versa, as that influences the demotion_target order.
We do already have two CPU callbacks (vmstat_cpu_online() and
vmstat_cpu_dead()) that check exactly that, so get rid of the CPU
callbacks in migrate_on_reclaim_init() and only call
set_migration_target_nodes() from vmstat_cpu_{dead,online}() whenever a
numa node change its N_CPU state.

drivers/base/memory: clarify adding and removing of memory blocks
Let's make it clearer at which places we actually add and remove memory blocks -- streamlining the terminology -- and highlight which memory block start out online and which start out as offline. * rename add_memory_block -> add_boot_memory_block * rename init_memory_block -> add_memory_block * rename unregister_memory -> remove_memory_block * rename register_memory -> __add_memory_block * add add_hotplug_memory_block * mark add_boot_memory_block with __init (suggested by Oscar) __add_memory_block() is a pure helper for add_memory_block(), remove the somewhat obvious comment.

drivers/base/memory: determine and store zone for single-zone memory blocks
test_pages_in_a_zone() is just another nasty PFN walker that can easily stumble over ZONE_DEVICE memory ranges falling into the same memory block as ordinary system RAM: the memmap of parts of these ranges might possibly be uninitialized. In fact, we observed (on an older kernel) with UBSAN: UBSAN: Undefined behaviour in ./include/linux/mm.h:1133:50 index 7 is out of range for type 'zone [5]' CPU: 121 PID: 35603 Comm: read_all Kdump: loaded Tainted: [...] Hardware name: Dell Inc.

While we could try inserting pfn_to_online_page() calls, it will just make memory offlining slower, because we use test_pages_in_a_zone() to make sure we're offlining pages that all belong to the same zone. Let's just get rid of this PFN walker and determine the single zone of a memory block -- if any -- for early memory blocks during boot. For memory onlining, we know the single zone already. Let's avoid any additional memmap scanning and just rely on the zone information available during boot. For memory hot(un)plug, we only really care about memory blocks that: * span a single zone (and, thereby, a single node) * are completely System RAM (IOW, no holes, no ZONE_DEVICE) If one of these conditions is not met, we reject memory offlining. Hotplugged memory blocks (starting out offline), always meet both conditions. There are three scenarios to handle: (1) Memory hot(un)plug A memory block with zone == NULL cannot be offlined, corresponding to our previous test_pages_in_a_zone() check. After successful memory onlining/offlining, we simply set the zone accordingly. * Memory onlining: set the zone we just used for onlining * Memory offlining: set zone = NULL So a hotplugged memory block starts with zone = NULL. Once memory onlining is done, we set the proper zone. (2) Boot memory with !CONFIG_NUMA We know that there is just a single pgdat, so we simply scan all zones of that pgdat for an intersection with our memory block PFN range when adding the memory block. If more than one zone intersects (e.g., DMA and DMA32 on x86 for the first memory block) we set zone = NULL and consequently mimic what test_pages_in_a_zone() used to do. (3) Boot memory with CONFIG_NUMA At the point in time we create the memory block devices during boot, we don't know yet which nodes *actually* span a memory block. While we could scan all zones of all nodes for intersections, overlapping nodes complicate the situation and scanning all nodes is possibly expensive. But that problem has already been solved by the code that sets the node of a memory block and creates the link in the sysfs -- do_register_memory_block_under_node(). So, we hook into the code that sets the node id for a memory block. If we already have a different node id set for the memory block, we know that multiple nodes *actually* have PFNs falling into our memory block: we set zone = NULL and consequently mimic what test_pages_in_a_zone() used to do. If there is no node id set, we do the same as (2) for the given node. Note that the call order in driver_init() is: -> memory_dev_init(): create memory block devices -> node_dev_init(): link memory block devices to the node and set the node id So in summary, we detect if there is a single zone responsible for this memory block and we consequently store the zone in that case in the memory block, updating it during memory onlining/offlining.

drivers/base/node: rename link_mem_sections() to register_memory_block_under_node()
Patch series "drivers/base/memory: determine and store zone for single-zone memory blocks", v2. I remember talking to Michal in the past about removing test_pages_in_a_zone(), which we use for: * verifying that a memory block we intend to offline is really only managed by a single zone. We don't support offlining of memory blocks that are managed by multiple zones (e.g., multiple nodes, DMA and DMA32) * exposing that zone to user space via /sys/devices/system/memory/memory*/valid_zones Now that I identified some more cases where test_pages_in_a_zone() might go wrong, and we received an UBSAN report (see patch #3), let's get rid of this PFN walker. So instead of detecting the zone at runtime with test_pages_in_a_zone() by scanning the memmap, let's determine and remember for each memory block if it's managed by a single zone. The stored zone can then be used for the above two cases, avoiding a manual lookup using test_pages_in_a_zone(). This avoids eventually stumbling over uninitialized memmaps in corner cases, especially when ZONE_DEVICE ranges partly fall into memory block (that are responsible for managing System RAM). Handling memory onlining is easy, because we online to exactly one zone. Handling boot memory is more tricky, because we want to avoid scanning all zones of all nodes to detect possible zones that overlap with the physical memory region of interest. Fortunately, we already have code that determines the applicable nodes for a memory block, to create sysfs links -- we'll hook into that. Patch #1 is a simple cleanup I had laying around for a longer time. Patch #2 contains the main logic to remove test_pages_in_a_zone() and further details.

drivers/base/node: consolidate node device subsystem initialization in node_dev_init()
... and call node_dev_init() after memory_dev_init() from driver_init(), so before any of the existing arch/subsys calls. All online nodes should be known at that point: early during boot, arch code determines node and zone ranges and sets the relevant nodes online; usually this happens in setup_arch(). This is in line with memory_dev_init(), which initializes the memory device subsystem and creates all memory block devices. Similar to memory_dev_init(), panic() if anything goes wrong, we don't want to continue with such basic initialization errors. The important part is that node_dev_init() gets called after memory_dev_init() and after cpu_dev_init(), but before any of the relevant archs call register_cpu() to register the new cpu device under the node device. The latter should be the case for the current users of topology_init().

mm, memory_hotplug: reorganize new pgdat initialization

Internal pgdat state is initialized at two places currently - hotadd_init_pgdat - free_area_init_core_hotplug There is no real clear cut what should go where but this patch's chosen to move the whole internal state initialization into free_area_init_core_hotplug. hotadd_init_pgdat is still responsible to pull all the parts together - most notably to initialize zonelists because those depend on the overall topology.

mm: handle uninitialized numa nodes gracefully
We have had several reports [1][2][3] that page allocator blows up when an allocation from a possible node is requested. The underlying reason is that NODE_DATA for the specific node is not allocated. NUMA specific initialization is arch specific and it can vary a lot. E.g. x86 tries to initialize all nodes that have some cpu affinity (see init_cpu_to_node) but this can be insufficient because the node might be cpuless for example. One way to address this problem would be to check for !node_online nodes when trying to get a zonelist and silently fall back to another node. That is unfortunately adding a branch into allocator hot path and it doesn't handle any other potential NODE_DATA users. This patch takes a different approach (following a lead of [3]) and it pre allocates pgdat for all possible nodes in an arch indipendent code - free_area_init. All uninitialized nodes are treated as memoryless nodes. node_state of the node is not changed because that would lead to other side effects - e.g. sysfs representation of such a node and from past discussions [4] it is known that some tools might have problems digesting that. Newly allocated pgdat only gets a minimal initialization and the rest of the work is expected to be done by the memory hotplug - hotadd_new_pgdat (renamed to hotadd_init_pgdat). generic_alloc_nodedata is changed to use the memblock allocator because neither page nor slab allocators are available at the stage when all pgdats are allocated. Hotplug doesn't allocate pgdat anymore so we can use the early boot allocator. The only arch specific implementation is ia64 and that is changed to use the early allocator as well.

mm, memory_hotplug: make arch_alloc_nodedata independent on CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG
Patch series "mm, memory_hotplug: handle unitialized numa node gracefully". The core of the fix is patch 2 which also links existing bug reports. The high level goal is to have all possible numa nodes have their pgdat allocated and initialized so for_each_possible_node(nid) NODE_DATA(nid) will never return garbage. This has proven to be problem in several places when an offline numa node is used for an allocation just to realize that node_data and therefore allocation fallback zonelists are not initialized and such an allocation request blows up. There were attempts to address that by checking node_online in several places including the page allocator. This patchset approaches the problem from a different perspective and instead of special casing, which just adds a runtime overhead, it allocates pglist_data for each possible node. This can add some memory overhead for platforms with high number of possible nodes if they do not contain any memory. This should be a rather rare configuration though. How to test this? David has provided and excellent howto: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/6e5ebc19-890c-b6dd-1924-9f25c441010d@redhat.com Patches 1 and 3-6 are mostly cleanups. The patchset has been reviewed by Rafael (thanks!) and the core fix tested by Rafael and Alexey (thanks to both). David has tested as per instructions above and hasn't found any fallouts in the memory hotplug scenarios. This patch (of 6): This is a preparatory patch and it doesn't introduce any functional change. It merely pulls out arch_alloc_nodedata (and co) outside of CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG because the following patch will need to call this from the generic MM code.

mm: madvise: skip unmapped vma holes passed to process_madvise
The process_madvise() system call is expected to skip holes in vma passed through 'struct iovec' vector list. But do_madvise, which process_madvise() calls for each vma, returns ENOMEM in case of unmapped holes, despite the VMA is processed. Thus process_madvise() should treat ENOMEM as expected and consider the VMA passed to as processed and continue processing other vma's in the vector list. Returning -ENOMEM to user, despite the VMA is processed, will be unable to figure out where to start the next madvise.

mm: madvise: return correct bytes advised with process_madvise
Patch series "mm: madvise: return correct bytes processed with process_madvise", v2. With the process_madvise(), always choose to return non zero processed bytes over an error. This can help the user to know on which VMA, passed in the 'struct iovec' vector list, is failed to advise thus can take the decission of retrying/skipping on that VMA. This patch (of 2): The process_madvise() system call returns error even after processing some VMA's passed in the 'struct iovec' vector list which leaves the user confused to know where to restart the advise next. It is also against this syscall man page[1] documentation where it mentions that "return value may be less than the total number of requested bytes, if an error occurred after some iovec elements were already processed.". Consider a user passed 10 VMA's in the 'struct iovec' vector list of which 9 are processed but one. Then it just returns the error caused on that failed VMA despite the first 9 VMA's processed, leaving the user confused about on which VMA it is failed. Returning the number of bytes processed here can help the user to know which VMA it is failed on and thus can retry/skip the advise on that VMA.

mm: page_io: fix psi memory pressure error on cold swapins
Once upon a time, all swapins counted toward memory pressure[1]. Then Joonsoo introduced workingset detection for anonymous pages and we gained the ability to distinguish hot from cold swapins[2][3]. But we failed to update swap_readpage() accordingly, and now we account partial memory pressure in the swapin path of cold memory. Not for all situations - which adds more inconsistency: paths using the conventional submit_bio() and lock_page() route will not see much pressure - unless storage itself is heavily congested and the bio submissions stall. ZRAM and ZSWAP do most of the work directly from swap_readpage() and will see all swapins reflected as pressure. IOW, a workload doing cold swapins could see little to no pressure reported with on-disk swap, but potentially high pressure with a zram or zswap backend. That confuses any psi-based health monitoring, load shedding, proactive reclaim, or userspace OOM killing schemes that might be in place for the workload. Restore consistency by making all swapin stall accounting conditional on the page actually being part of the workingset. [1] commit |

memory tiering: skip to scan fast memory
If the NUMA balancing isn't used to optimize the page placement among sockets but only among memory types, the hot pages in the fast memory node couldn't be migrated (promoted) to anywhere. So it's unnecessary to scan the pages in the fast memory node via changing their PTE/PMD mapping to be PROT_NONE. So that the page faults could be avoided too. In the test, if only the memory tiering NUMA balancing mode is enabled, the number of the NUMA balancing hint faults for the DRAM node is reduced to almost 0 with the patch. While the benchmark score doesn't change visibly.

NUMA balancing: optimize page placement for memory tiering system
With the advent of various new memory types, some machines will have multiple types of memory, e.g. DRAM and PMEM (persistent memory). The memory subsystem of these machines can be called memory tiering system, because the performance of the different types of memory are usually different. In such system, because of the memory accessing pattern changing etc, some pages in the slow memory may become hot globally. So in this patch, the NUMA balancing mechanism is enhanced to optimize the page placement among the different memory types according to hot/cold dynamically. In a typical memory tiering system, there are CPUs, fast memory and slow memory in each physical NUMA node. The CPUs and the fast memory will be put in one logical node (called fast memory node), while the slow memory will be put in another (faked) logical node (called slow memory node). That is, the fast memory is regarded as local while the slow memory is regarded as remote. So it's possible for the recently accessed pages in the slow memory node to be promoted to the fast memory node via the existing NUMA balancing mechanism. The original NUMA balancing mechanism will stop to migrate pages if the free memory of the target node becomes below the high watermark. This is a reasonable policy if there's only one memory type. But this makes the original NUMA balancing mechanism almost do not work to optimize page placement among different memory types. Details are as follows. It's the common cases that the working-set size of the workload is larger than the size of the fast memory nodes. Otherwise, it's unnecessary to use the slow memory at all. So, there are almost always no enough free pages in the fast memory nodes, so that the globally hot pages in the slow memory node cannot be promoted to the fast memory node. To solve the issue, we have 2 choices as follows, a. Ignore the free pages watermark checking when promoting hot pages from the slow memory node to the fast memory node. This will create some memory pressure in the fast memory node, thus trigger the memory reclaiming. So that, the cold pages in the fast memory node will be demoted to the slow memory node. b. Define a new watermark called wmark_promo which is higher than wmark_high, and have kswapd reclaiming pages until free pages reach such watermark. The scenario is as follows: when we want to promote hot-pages from a slow memory to a fast memory, but fast memory's free pages would go lower than high watermark with such promotion, we wake up kswapd with wmark_promo watermark in order to demote cold pages and free us up some space. So, next time we want to promote hot-pages we might have a chance of doing so. The choice "a" may create high memory pressure in the fast memory node. If the memory pressure of the workload is high, the memory pressure may become so high that the memory allocation latency of the workload is influenced, e.g. the direct reclaiming may be triggered. The choice "b" works much better at this aspect. If the memory pressure of the workload is high, the hot pages promotion will stop earlier because its allocation watermark is higher than that of the normal memory allocation. So in this patch, choice "b" is implemented. A new zone watermark (WMARK_PROMO) is added. Which is larger than the high watermark and can be controlled via watermark_scale_factor. In addition to the original page placement optimization among sockets, the NUMA balancing mechanism is extended to be used to optimize page placement according to hot/cold among different memory types. So the sysctl user space interface (numa_balancing) is extended in a backward compatible way as follow, so that the users can enable/disable these functionality individually. The sysctl is converted from a Boolean value to a bits field. The definition of the flags is, - 0: NUMA_BALANCING_DISABLED - 1: NUMA_BALANCING_NORMAL - 2: NUMA_BALANCING_MEMORY_TIERING We have tested the patch with the pmbench memory accessing benchmark with the 80:20 read/write ratio and the Gauss access address distribution on a 2 socket Intel server with Optane DC Persistent Memory Model. The test results shows that the pmbench score can improve up to 95.9%. Thanks Andrew Morton to help fix the document format error.

mm/thp: refix __split_huge_pmd_locked() for migration PMD
Migration entries do not contribute to a page's reference count: move
__split_huge_pmd_locked()'s page_ref_add() into pmd_migration's else
block (along with the page_count() check - a page is quite likely to
have reference count frozen to 0 when a migration entry is found).
This will fix a very rare anonymous memory leak, after a
split_huge_pmd() raced with an anon split_huge_page() or an anon THP
migrate_pages(): since the wrongly raised refcount stopped the page
(perhaps small, perhaps huge, depending on when the race hit) from ever
being freed.
At first I thought there were worse risks, from prematurely unfreezing a
frozen page: but now think that would only affect page cache pages,
which do not come this way (except for anonymous pages in swap cache,
perhaps).

mm/migrate: fix race between lock page and clear PG_Isolated
When memory is tight, system may start to compact memory for large
continuous memory demands. If one process tries to lock a memory page
that is being locked and isolated for compaction, it may wait a long time
or even forever. This is because compaction will perform non-atomic
PG_Isolated clear while holding page lock, this may overwrite PG_waiters
set by the process that can't obtain the page lock and add itself to the
waiting queue to wait for the lock to be unlocked.
CPU1 CPU2
lock_page(page); (successful)
lock_page(); (failed)
__ClearPageIsolated(page); SetPageWaiters(page) (may be overwritten)
unlock_page(page);
The solution is to not perform non-atomic operation on page flags while
holding page lock.

mm: __isolate_lru_page_prepare() in isolate_migratepages_block()
__isolate_lru_page_prepare() conflates two unrelated functions, with the flags to one disjoint from the flags to the other; and hides some of the important checks outside of isolate_migratepages_block(), where the sequence is better to be visible. It comes from the days of lumpy reclaim, before compaction, when the combination made more sense. Move what's needed by mm/compaction.c isolate_migratepages_block() inline there, and what's needed by mm/vmscan.c isolate_lru_pages() inline there. Shorten "isolate_mode" to "mode", so the sequence of conditions is easier to read. Declare a "mapping" variable, to save one call to page_mapping() (but not another: calling again after page is locked is necessary). Simplify isolate_lru_pages() with a "move_to" list pointer.

userfaultfd: provide unmasked address on page-fault
Userfaultfd is supposed to provide the full address (i.e., unmasked) of
the faulting access back to userspace. However, that is not the case for
quite some time.
Even running "userfaultfd_demo" from the userfaultfd man page provides the
wrong output (and contradicts the man page). Notice that
"UFFD_EVENT_PAGEFAULT event" shows the masked address (7fc5e30b3000) and
not the first read address (0x7fc5e30b300f).
Address returned by mmap() = 0x7fc5e30b3000
fault_handler_thread():
poll() returns: nready = 1; POLLIN = 1; POLLERR = 0
UFFD_EVENT_PAGEFAULT event: flags = 0; address = 7fc5e30b3000
(uffdio_copy.copy returned 4096)
Read address 0x7fc5e30b300f in main(): A
Read address 0x7fc5e30b340f in main(): A
Read address 0x7fc5e30b380f in main(): A
Read address 0x7fc5e30b3c0f in main(): A
The exact address is useful for various reasons and specifically for
prefetching decisions. If it is known that the memory is populated by
certain objects whose size is not page-aligned, then based on the faulting
address, the uffd-monitor can decide whether to prefetch and prefault the
adjacent page.
This bug has been for quite some time in the kernel: since commit

mm/hugetlb.c: export PageHeadHuge()
Export PageHeadHuge() - it's used by folio_test_hugetlb() and thence by such as folio_file_page() and folio_contains(). Matthew suggested I use the first of those instead of doing the same calculation manually - but I can't call it from a module. Kirill suggested rearranging things to put it in a header, but that introduces header dependencies because of where constants are defined.

mm/hugetlb: use helper macro __ATTR_RW
Use helper macro __ATTR_RW to define HSTATE_ATTR to make code more clear. Minor readability improvement.

hugetlb: clean up potential spectre issue warnings
Recently introduced code allows numa nodes to be specified on the kernel command line for hugetlb allocations or CMA reservations. The node values are user specified and used as indicies into arrays. This generated the following smatch warnings: mm/hugetlb.c:4170 hugepages_setup() warn: potential spectre issue 'default_hugepages_in_node' [w] mm/hugetlb.c:4172 hugepages_setup() warn: potential spectre issue 'parsed_hstate->max_huge_pages_node' [w] mm/hugetlb.c:6898 cmdline_parse_hugetlb_cma() warn: potential spectre issue 'hugetlb_cma_size_in_node' [w] (local cap) Clean up by using array_index_nospec to sanitize array indicies. The routine cmdline_parse_hugetlb_cma has the same overflow/truncation issue addressed in [1]. That is also fixed with this change. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20220209134018.8242-1-liuyuntao10@huawei.com/ As Michal pointed out, this is unlikely to be exploitable because it is __init code. But the patch suppresses the warnings.

ARCH_WANT_GENERAL_HUGETLB config has duplicate definitions on platforms that subscribe it. Instead make it a generic config option which can be selected on applicable platforms when required.
