This argument is not used by the arm64 implementation. Mark it as
__always_unused and also remove the unnecessary 'addr' increment in
set_ptes().

set_ptes() sets a physically contiguous block of memory (which all
belongs to the same folio) to a contiguous block of ptes. The arm64
implementation of this previously just looped, operating on each
individual pte. But the __sync_icache_dcache() and mte_sync_tags()
operations can both be hoisted out of the loop so that they are
performed once for the contiguous set of pages (which may be less than
the whole folio). This should result in minor performance gains.
__sync_icache_dcache() already acts on the whole folio, and sets a flag
in the folio so that it skips duplicate calls. But by hoisting the call,
all the pte testing is done only once.
mte_sync_tags() operates on each individual page with its own loop. But
by passing the number of pages explicitly, we can rely solely on its
loop and do the checks only once. This approach also makes it robust for
the future, rather than assuming if a head page of a compound page is
being mapped, then the whole compound page is being mapped, instead we
explicitly know how many pages are being mapped. The old assumption may
not continue to hold once the "anonymous large folios" feature is
merged.

Pull x86 shadow stack support from Dave Hansen:
"This is the long awaited x86 shadow stack support, part of Intel's
Control-flow Enforcement Technology (CET).
CET consists of two related security features: shadow stacks and
indirect branch tracking. This series implements just the shadow stack
part of this feature, and just for userspace.
The main use case for shadow stack is providing protection against
return oriented programming attacks. It works by maintaining a
secondary (shadow) stack using a special memory type that has
protections against modification. When executing a CALL instruction,
the processor pushes the return address to both the normal stack and
to the special permission shadow stack. Upon RET, the processor pops
the shadow stack copy and compares it to the normal stack copy.
For more information, refer to the links below for the earlier
versions of this patch set"

As a result of the patches "mm: Call arch_swap_restore() from
do_swap_page()" and "mm: Call arch_swap_restore() from unuse_pte()", there
are no circumstances in which a swapped-in page is installed in a page
table without first having arch_swap_restore() called on it. Therefore,
we no longer need the logic in set_pte_at() that restores the tags, so
remove it.

pte_mkdirty() creates dirty states both in SW and HW bits, which is really
not required, either in pte_wrprotect() or pte_modify() for preserving the
HW dirty state. Because pte_mkdirty() sets PTE_DIRTY and clears PTE_RDONLY
as pte_write() always evaluates to be true - otherwise pte_hw_dirty() will
not test out in the first place. Clearing PTE_RDONLY again is not required
here because the pte is already in pte_hw_dirty() but might soon loose its
dirty state thus requiring preservation in SW dirty bit i.e PTE_DIRTY.

The x86 Shadow stack feature includes a new type of memory called shadow
stack. This shadow stack memory has some unusual properties, which requires
some core mm changes to function properly.
One of these unusual properties is that shadow stack memory is writable,
but only in limited ways. These limits are applied via a specific PTE
bit combination. Nevertheless, the memory is writable, and core mm code
will need to apply the writable permissions in the typical paths that
call pte_mkwrite(). The goal is to make pte_mkwrite() take a VMA, so
that the x86 implementation of it can know whether to create regular
writable or shadow stack mappings.
But there are a couple of challenges to this. Modifying the signatures of
each arch pte_mkwrite() implementation would be error prone because some
are generated with macros and would need to be re-implemented. Also, some
pte_mkwrite() callers operate on kernel memory without a VMA.
So this can be done in a three step process. First pte_mkwrite() can be
renamed to pte_mkwrite_novma() in each arch, with a generic pte_mkwrite()
added that just calls pte_mkwrite_novma(). Next callers without a VMA can
be moved to pte_mkwrite_novma(). And lastly, pte_mkwrite() and all callers
can be changed to take/pass a VMA.
Start the process by renaming pte_mkwrite() to pte_mkwrite_novma() and
adding the pte_mkwrite() wrapper in linux/pgtable.h. Apply the same
pattern for pmd_mkwrite(). Since not all archs have a pmd_mkwrite_novma(),
create a new arch config HAS_HUGE_PAGE that can be used to tell if
pmd_mkwrite() should be defined. Otherwise in the !HAS_HUGE_PAGE cases the
compiler would not be able to find pmd_mkwrite_novma().
No functional change.

s390 can do more fine-grained handling of spurious TLB protection faults,
when there also is the PTE pointer available.
Therefore, pass on the PTE pointer to flush_tlb_fix_spurious_fault() as an
additional parameter.
This will add no functional change to other architectures, but those with
private flush_tlb_fix_spurious_fault() implementations need to be made
aware of the new parameter.

Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:
- Support for arm64 SME 2 and 2.1. SME2 introduces a new 512-bit
architectural register (ZT0, for the look-up table feature) that
Linux needs to save/restore
- Include TPIDR2 in the signal context and add the corresponding
kselftests
- Perf updates: Arm SPEv1.2 support, HiSilicon uncore PMU updates, ACPI
support to the Marvell DDR and TAD PMU drivers, reset DTM_PMU_CONFIG
(ARM CMN) at probe time
- Support for DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_CALL_OPS on arm64
- Permit EFI boot with MMU and caches on. Instead of cleaning the
entire loaded kernel image to the PoC and disabling the MMU and
caches before branching to the kernel bare metal entry point, leave
the MMU and caches enabled and rely on EFI's cacheable 1:1 mapping of
all of system RAM to populate the initial page tables
- Expose the AArch32 (compat) ELF_HWCAP features to user in an arm64
kernel (the arm32 kernel only defines the values)
- Harden the arm64 shadow call stack pointer handling: stash the shadow
stack pointer in the task struct on interrupt, load it directly from
this structure
- Signal handling cleanups to remove redundant validation of size
information and avoid reading the same data from userspace twice
- Refactor the hwcap macros to make use of the automatically generated
ID registers. It should make new hwcaps writing less error prone
- Further arm64 sysreg conversion and some fixes
- arm64 kselftest fixes and improvements
- Pointer authentication cleanups: don't sign leaf functions, unify
asm-arch manipulation
- Pseudo-NMI code generation optimisations
- Minor fixes for SME and TPIDR2 handling
- Miscellaneous updates: ARCH_FORCE_MAX_ORDER is now selectable,
replace strtobool() to kstrtobool() in the cpufeature.c code, apply
dynamic shadow call stack in two passes, intercept pfn changes in
set_pte_at() without the required break-before-make sequence, attempt
to dump all instructions on unhandled kernel faults

Changing pfn on a user page table mapped entry, without first going through
break-before-make (BBM) procedure is unsafe. This just updates set_pte_at()
to intercept such changes, via an updated pgattr_change_is_safe(). This new
check happens via __check_racy_pte_update(), which has now been renamed as
__check_safe_pte_update().

With only two levels of page-table, the generic 'pud_*' macros are
implemented using dummy operations in pgtable-nopmd.h. Since commit
730a11f982e6 ("arm64/mm: add pud_user_exec() check in
pud_user_accessible_page()"), pud_user_accessible_page() unconditionally
calls pud_user_exec(), which is an arm64-specific helper and therefore
isn't defined by pgtable-nopmd.h. This results in a build failure for
configurations with only two levels of page table:
arch/arm64/include/asm/pgtable.h: In function 'pud_user_accessible_page':
>> arch/arm64/include/asm/pgtable.h:870:51: error: implicit declaration of function 'pud_user_exec'; did you mean 'pmd_user_exec'? [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
870 | return pud_leaf(pud) && (pud_user(pud) || pud_user_exec(pud));
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~
| pmd_user_exec
Fix the problem by defining pud_user_exec() as pud_user() in this case.

If a Cortex-A715 cpu sees a page mapping permissions change from executable
to non-executable, it may corrupt the ESR_ELx and FAR_ELx registers, on the
next instruction abort caused by permission fault.
Only user-space does executable to non-executable permission transition via
mprotect() system call which calls ptep_modify_prot_start() and ptep_modify
_prot_commit() helpers, while changing the page mapping. The platform code
can override these helpers via __HAVE_ARCH_PTEP_MODIFY_PROT_TRANSACTION.
Work around the problem via doing a break-before-make TLB invalidation, for
all executable user space mappings, that go through mprotect() system call.
This overrides ptep_modify_prot_start() and ptep_modify_prot_commit(), via
defining HAVE_ARCH_PTEP_MODIFY_PROT_TRANSACTION on the platform thus giving
an opportunity to intercept user space exec mappings, and do the necessary
TLB invalidation. Similar interceptions are also implemented for HugeTLB.

On arm64, pmd_leaf() will return true even if the pmd is invalid due to
pmd_present_invalid() check. So in pmdp_invalidate() the file_map_count
will not only decrease once but also increase once. Then in set_pte_at(),
the file_map_count increase again, and so trigger BUG_ON() unexpectedly.
Add !pmd_present_invalid() check in pmd_user_accessible_page() to fix the
problem.

Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"ARM64:
- Enable the per-vcpu dirty-ring tracking mechanism, together with an
option to keep the good old dirty log around for pages that are
dirtied by something other than a vcpu.
- Switch to the relaxed parallel fault handling, using RCU to delay
page table reclaim and giving better performance under load.
- Relax the MTE ABI, allowing a VMM to use the MAP_SHARED mapping
option, which multi-process VMMs such as crosvm rely on (see merge
commit 382b5b87a97d: "Fix a number of issues with MTE, such as
races on the tags being initialised vs the PG_mte_tagged flag as
well as the lack of support for VM_SHARED when KVM is involved.
Patches from Catalin Marinas and Peter Collingbourne").
- Merge the pKVM shadow vcpu state tracking that allows the
hypervisor to have its own view of a vcpu, keeping that state
private.
- Add support for the PMUv3p5 architecture revision, bringing support
for 64bit counters on systems that support it, and fix the
no-quite-compliant CHAIN-ed counter support for the machines that
actually exist out there.
- Fix a handful of minor issues around 52bit VA/PA support (64kB
pages only) as a prefix of the oncoming support for 4kB and 16kB
pages.
- Pick a small set of documentation and spelling fixes, because no
good merge window would be complete without those.
s390:
- Second batch of the lazy destroy patches
- First batch of KVM changes for kernel virtual != physical address
support
- Removal of a unused function
x86:
- Allow compiling out SMM support
- Cleanup and documentation of SMM state save area format
- Preserve interrupt shadow in SMM state save area
- Respond to generic signals during slow page faults
- Fixes and optimizations for the non-executable huge page errata
fix.
- Reprogram all performance counters on PMU filter change
- Cleanups to Hyper-V emulation and tests
- Process Hyper-V TLB flushes from a nested guest (i.e. from a L2
guest running on top of a L1 Hyper-V hypervisor)
- Advertise several new Intel features
- x86 Xen-for-KVM:
- Allow the Xen runstate information to cross a page boundary
- Allow XEN_RUNSTATE_UPDATE flag behaviour to be configured
- Add support for 32-bit guests in SCHEDOP_poll
- Notable x86 fixes and cleanups:
- One-off fixes for various emulation flows (SGX, VMXON, NRIPS=0).
- Reinstate IBPB on emulated VM-Exit that was incorrectly dropped
a few years back when eliminating unnecessary barriers when
switching between vmcs01 and vmcs02.
- Clean up vmread_error_trampoline() to make it more obvious that
params must be passed on the stack, even for x86-64.
- Let userspace set all supported bits in MSR_IA32_FEAT_CTL
irrespective of the current guest CPUID.
- Fudge around a race with TSC refinement that results in KVM
incorrectly thinking a guest needs TSC scaling when running on a
CPU with a constant TSC, but no hardware-enumerated TSC
frequency.
- Advertise (on AMD) that the SMM_CTL MSR is not supported
- Remove unnecessary exports
Generic:
- Support for responding to signals during page faults; introduces
new FOLL_INTERRUPTIBLE flag that was reviewed by mm folks
Selftests:
- Fix an inverted check in the access tracking perf test, and restore
support for asserting that there aren't too many idle pages when
running on bare metal.
- Fix build errors that occur in certain setups (unsure exactly what
is unique about the problematic setup) due to glibc overriding
static_assert() to a variant that requires a custom message.
- Introduce actual atomics for clear/set_bit() in selftests
- Add support for pinning vCPUs in dirty_log_perf_test.
- Rename the so called "perf_util" framework to "memstress".
- Add a lightweight psuedo RNG for guest use, and use it to randomize
the access pattern and write vs. read percentage in the memstress
tests.
- Add a common ucall implementation; code dedup and pre-work for
running SEV (and beyond) guests in selftests.
- Provide a common constructor and arch hook, which will eventually
be used by x86 to automatically select the right hypercall (AMD vs.
Intel).
- A bunch of added/enabled/fixed selftests for ARM64, covering
memslots, breakpoints, stage-2 faults and access tracking.
- x86-specific selftest changes:
- Clean up x86's page table management.
- Clean up and enhance the "smaller maxphyaddr" test, and add a
related test to cover generic emulation failure.
- Clean up the nEPT support checks.
- Add X86_PROPERTY_* framework to retrieve multi-bit CPUID values.
- Fix an ordering issue in the AMX test introduced by recent
conversions to use kvm_cpu_has(), and harden the code to guard
against similar bugs in the future. Anything that tiggers
caching of KVM's supported CPUID, kvm_cpu_has() in this case,
effectively hides opt-in XSAVE features if the caching occurs
before the test opts in via prctl().
Documentation:
- Remove deleted ioctls from documentation
- Clean up the docs for the x86 MSR filter.
- Various fixes"

This reverts commit 44ecda71fd8a70185c270f5914ac563827fe1d4c.
All versions of this patch on the mailing list, including the version
that ended up getting merged, have portions of code guarded by the
non-existent CONFIG_ARM64_WORKAROUND_2645198 option. Although Anshuman
says he tested the code with some additional debug changes [1], I'm
hesitant to fix the CONFIG option and light up a bunch of code right
before I (and others) disappear for the end of year holidays, during
which time we won't be around to deal with any fallout.
So revert the change for now. We can bring back a fixed, tested version
for a later -rc when folks are thinking about things other than trees
and turkeys.

Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
"The highlights this time are support for dynamically enabling and
disabling Clang's Shadow Call Stack at boot and a long-awaited
optimisation to the way in which we handle the SVE register state on
system call entry to avoid taking unnecessary traps from userspace.
Summary:
ACPI:
- Enable FPDT support for boot-time profiling
- Fix CPU PMU probing to work better with PREEMPT_RT
- Update SMMUv3 MSI DeviceID parsing to latest IORT spec
- APMT support for probing Arm CoreSight PMU devices
CPU features:
- Advertise new SVE instructions (v2.1)
- Advertise range prefetch instruction
- Advertise CSSC ("Common Short Sequence Compression") scalar
instructions, adding things like min, max, abs, popcount
- Enable DIT (Data Independent Timing) when running in the kernel
- More conversion of system register fields over to the generated
header
CPU misfeatures:
- Workaround for Cortex-A715 erratum #2645198
Dynamic SCS:
- Support for dynamic shadow call stacks to allow switching at
runtime between Clang's SCS implementation and the CPU's pointer
authentication feature when it is supported (complete with scary
DWARF parser!)
Tracing and debug:
- Remove static ftrace in favour of, err, dynamic ftrace!
- Seperate 'struct ftrace_regs' from 'struct pt_regs' in core ftrace
and existing arch code
- Introduce and implement FTRACE_WITH_ARGS on arm64 to replace the
old FTRACE_WITH_REGS
- Extend 'crashkernel=' parameter with default value and fallback to
placement above 4G physical if initial (low) allocation fails
SVE:
- Optimisation to avoid disabling SVE unconditionally on syscall
entry and just zeroing the non-shared state on return instead
Exceptions:
- Rework of undefined instruction handling to avoid serialisation on
global lock (this includes emulation of user accesses to the ID
registers)
Perf and PMU:
- Support for TLP filters in Hisilicon's PCIe PMU device
- Support for the DDR PMU present in Amlogic Meson G12 SoCs
- Support for the terribly-named "CoreSight PMU" architecture from
Arm (and Nvidia's implementation of said architecture)
Misc:
- Tighten up our boot protocol for systems with memory above 52 bits
physical
- Const-ify static keys to satisty jump label asm constraints
- Trivial FFA driver cleanups in preparation for v1.1 support
- Export the kernel_neon_* APIs as GPL symbols
- Harden our instruction generation routines against instrumentation
- A bunch of robustness improvements to our arch-specific selftests

Initialising the tags and setting PG_mte_tagged flag for a page can race
between multiple set_pte_at() on shared pages or setting the stage 2 pte
via user_mem_abort(). Introduce a new PG_mte_lock flag as PG_arch_3 and
set it before attempting page initialisation. Given that PG_mte_tagged
is never cleared for a page, consider setting this flag to mean page
unlocked and wait on this bit with acquire semantics if the page is
locked:
- try_page_mte_tagging() - lock the page for tagging, return true if it
can be tagged, false if already tagged. No acquire semantics if it
returns true (PG_mte_tagged not set) as there is no serialisation with
a previous set_page_mte_tagged().
- set_page_mte_tagged() - set PG_mte_tagged with release semantics.
The two-bit locking is based on Peter Collingbourne's idea.

Currently the PG_mte_tagged page flag mostly means the page contains
valid tags and it should be set after the tags have been cleared or
restored. However, in mte_sync_tags() it is set before setting the tags
to avoid, in theory, a race with concurrent mprotect(PROT_MTE) for
shared pages. However, a concurrent mprotect(PROT_MTE) with a copy on
write in another thread can cause the new page to have stale tags.
Similarly, tag reading via ptrace() can read stale tags if the
PG_mte_tagged flag is set before actually clearing/restoring the tags.
Fix the PG_mte_tagged semantics so that it is only set after the tags
have been cleared or restored. This is safe for swap restoring into a
MAP_SHARED or CoW page since the core code takes the page lock. Add two
functions to test and set the PG_mte_tagged flag with acquire and
release semantics. The downside is that concurrent mprotect(PROT_MTE) on
a MAP_SHARED page may cause tag loss. This is already the case for KVM
guests if a VMM changes the page protection while the guest triggers a
user_mem_abort().

If a Cortex-A715 cpu sees a page mapping permissions change from executable
to non-executable, it may corrupt the ESR_ELx and FAR_ELx registers, on the
next instruction abort caused by permission fault.
Only user-space does executable to non-executable permission transition via
mprotect() system call which calls ptep_modify_prot_start() and ptep_modify
_prot_commit() helpers, while changing the page mapping. The platform code
can override these helpers via __HAVE_ARCH_PTEP_MODIFY_PROT_TRANSACTION.
Work around the problem via doing a break-before-make TLB invalidation, for
all executable user space mappings, that go through mprotect() system call.
This overrides ptep_modify_prot_start() and ptep_modify_prot_commit(), via
defining HAVE_ARCH_PTEP_MODIFY_PROT_TRANSACTION on the platform thus giving
an opportunity to intercept user space exec mappings, and do the necessary
TLB invalidation. Similar interceptions are also implemented for HugeTLB.

pte_to_phys() assembly definition does multiple bits field transformations
to derive physical address, embedded inside a page table entry. Unlike its
C counter part i.e __pte_to_phys(), pte_to_phys() is not very apparent. It
simplifies these operations via a new macro PTE_ADDR_HIGH_SHIFT indicating
how far the pte encoded higher address bits need to be left shifted. While
here, this also updates __pte_to_phys() and __phys_to_pte_val().

Most architectures (except arm64/x86/sparc) simply return 1 for
kern_addr_valid(), which is only used in read_kcore(), and it calls
copy_from_kernel_nofault() which could check whether the address is a
valid kernel address. So as there is no need for kern_addr_valid(), let's
remove it.

Patch series "Multi-Gen LRU Framework", v14.
What's new
==========
1. OpenWrt, in addition to Android, Arch Linux Zen, Armbian, ChromeOS,
Liquorix, post-factum and XanMod, is now shipping MGLRU on 5.15.
2. Fixed long-tailed direct reclaim latency seen on high-memory (TBs)
machines. The old direct reclaim backoff, which tries to enforce a
minimum fairness among all eligible memcgs, over-swapped by about
(total_mem>>DEF_PRIORITY)-nr_to_reclaim. The new backoff, which
pulls the plug on swapping once the target is met, trades some
fairness for curtailed latency:
https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220918080010.2920238-10-yuzhao@google.com/
3. Fixed minior build warnings and conflicts. More comments and nits.
TLDR
====
The current page reclaim is too expensive in terms of CPU usage and it
often makes poor choices about what to evict. This patchset offers an
alternative solution that is performant, versatile and
straightforward.

Benchmark results
=================
Independent lab results
-----------------------
Based on the popularity of searches [01] and the memory usage in
Google's public cloud, the most popular open-source memory-hungry
applications, in alphabetical order, are:
Apache Cassandra Memcached
Apache Hadoop MongoDB
Apache Spark PostgreSQL
MariaDB (MySQL) Redis
An independent lab evaluated MGLRU with the most widely used benchmark
suites for the above applications. They posted 960 data points along
with kernel metrics and perf profiles collected over more than 500
hours of total benchmark time. Their final reports show that, with 95%
confidence intervals (CIs), the above applications all performed
significantly better for at least part of their benchmark matrices.
On 5.14:
1. Apache Spark [02] took 95% CIs [9.28, 11.19]% and [12.20, 14.93]%
less wall time to sort three billion random integers, respectively,
under the medium- and the high-concurrency conditions, when
overcommitting memory. There were no statistically significant
changes in wall time for the rest of the benchmark matrix.
2. MariaDB [03] achieved 95% CIs [5.24, 10.71]% and [20.22, 25.97]%
more transactions per minute (TPM), respectively, under the medium-
and the high-concurrency conditions, when overcommitting memory.
There were no statistically significant changes in TPM for the rest
of the benchmark matrix.
3. Memcached [04] achieved 95% CIs [23.54, 32.25]%, [20.76, 41.61]%
and [21.59, 30.02]% more operations per second (OPS), respectively,
for sequential access, random access and Gaussian (distribution)
access, when THP=always; 95% CIs [13.85, 15.97]% and
[23.94, 29.92]% more OPS, respectively, for random access and
Gaussian access, when THP=never. There were no statistically
significant changes in OPS for the rest of the benchmark matrix.
4. MongoDB [05] achieved 95% CIs [2.23, 3.44]%, [6.97, 9.73]% and
[2.16, 3.55]% more operations per second (OPS), respectively, for
exponential (distribution) access, random access and Zipfian
(distribution) access, when underutilizing memory; 95% CIs
[8.83, 10.03]%, [21.12, 23.14]% and [5.53, 6.46]% more OPS,
respectively, for exponential access, random access and Zipfian
access, when overcommitting memory.
On 5.15:
5. Apache Cassandra [06] achieved 95% CIs [1.06, 4.10]%, [1.94, 5.43]%
and [4.11, 7.50]% more operations per second (OPS), respectively,
for exponential (distribution) access, random access and Zipfian
(distribution) access, when swap was off; 95% CIs [0.50, 2.60]%,
[6.51, 8.77]% and [3.29, 6.75]% more OPS, respectively, for
exponential access, random access and Zipfian access, when swap was
on.
6. Apache Hadoop [07] took 95% CIs [5.31, 9.69]% and [2.02, 7.86]%
less average wall time to finish twelve parallel TeraSort jobs,
respectively, under the medium- and the high-concurrency
conditions, when swap was on. There were no statistically
significant changes in average wall time for the rest of the
benchmark matrix.
7. PostgreSQL [08] achieved 95% CI [1.75, 6.42]% more transactions per
minute (TPM) under the high-concurrency condition, when swap was
off; 95% CIs [12.82, 18.69]% and [22.70, 46.86]% more TPM,
respectively, under the medium- and the high-concurrency
conditions, when swap was on. There were no statistically
significant changes in TPM for the rest of the benchmark matrix.
8. Redis [09] achieved 95% CIs [0.58, 5.94]%, [6.55, 14.58]% and
[11.47, 19.36]% more total operations per second (OPS),
respectively, for sequential access, random access and Gaussian
(distribution) access, when THP=always; 95% CIs [1.27, 3.54]%,
[10.11, 14.81]% and [8.75, 13.64]% more total OPS, respectively,
for sequential access, random access and Gaussian access, when
THP=never.

Read-world applications
=======================
Third-party testimonials
------------------------
Konstantin reported [11]:
I have Archlinux with 8G RAM + zswap + swap. While developing, I
have lots of apps opened such as multiple LSP-servers for different
langs, chats, two browsers, etc... Usually, my system gets quickly
to a point of SWAP-storms, where I have to kill LSP-servers,
restart browsers to free memory, etc, otherwise the system lags
heavily and is barely usable.
1.5 day ago I migrated from 5.11.15 kernel to 5.12 + the LRU
patchset, and I started up by opening lots of apps to create memory
pressure, and worked for a day like this. Till now I had not a
single SWAP-storm, and mind you I got 3.4G in SWAP. I was never
getting to the point of 3G in SWAP before without a single
SWAP-storm.
Vaibhav from IBM reported [12]:
In a synthetic MongoDB Benchmark, seeing an average of ~19%
throughput improvement on POWER10(Radix MMU + 64K Page Size) with
MGLRU patches on top of 5.16 kernel for MongoDB + YCSB across
three different request distributions, namely, Exponential, Uniform
and Zipfan.
Shuang from U of Rochester reported [13]:
With the MGLRU, fio achieved 95% CIs [38.95, 40.26]%, [4.12, 6.64]%
and [9.26, 10.36]% higher throughput, respectively, for random
access, Zipfian (distribution) access and Gaussian (distribution)
access, when the average number of jobs per CPU is 1; 95% CIs
[42.32, 49.15]%, [9.44, 9.89]% and [20.99, 22.86]% higher
throughput, respectively, for random access, Zipfian access and
Gaussian access, when the average number of jobs per CPU is 2.
Daniel from Michigan Tech reported [14]:
With Memcached allocating ~100GB of byte-addressable Optante,
performance improvement in terms of throughput (measured as queries
per second) was about 10% for a series of workloads.
Large-scale deployments
-----------------------
We've rolled out MGLRU to tens of millions of ChromeOS users and
about a million Android users. Google's fleetwide profiling [15] shows
an overall 40% decrease in kswapd CPU usage, in addition to
improvements in other UX metrics, e.g., an 85% decrease in the number
of low-memory kills at the 75th percentile and an 18% decrease in
app launch time at the 50th percentile.
The downstream kernels that have been using MGLRU include:
1. Android [16]
2. Arch Linux Zen [17]
3. Armbian [18]
4. ChromeOS [19]
5. Liquorix [20]
6. OpenWrt [21]

Summary
=======
The facts are:
1. The independent lab results and the real-world applications
indicate substantial improvements; there are no known regressions.
2. Thrashing prevention, working set estimation and proactive reclaim
work out of the box; there are no equivalent solutions.
3. There is a lot of new code; no smaller changes have been
demonstrated similar effects.
Our options, accordingly, are:
1. Given the amount of evidence, the reported improvements will likely
materialize for a wide range of workloads.
2. Gauging the interest from the past discussions, the new features
will likely be put to use for both personal computers and data
centers.
3. Based on Google's track record, the new code will likely be well
maintained in the long term. It'd be more difficult if not
impossible to achieve similar effects with other approaches.
This patch (of 14):
Some architectures automatically set the accessed bit in PTEs, e.g., x86
and arm64 v8.2. On architectures that do not have this capability,
clearing the accessed bit in a PTE usually triggers a page fault following
the TLB miss of this PTE (to emulate the accessed bit).
Being aware of this capability can help make better decisions, e.g.,
whether to spread the work out over a period of time to reduce bursty page
faults when trying to clear the accessed bit in many PTEs.
Note that theoretically this capability can be unreliable, e.g.,
hotplugged CPUs might be different from builtin ones. Therefore it should
not be used in architecture-independent code that involves correctness,
e.g., to determine whether TLB flushes are required (in combination with
the accessed bit).

* for-next/mm:
arm64: enable THP_SWAP for arm64
|
|
THP_SWAP has been proven to improve the swap throughput significantly
on x86_64 according to commit bd4c82c22c367e ("mm, THP, swap: delay
splitting THP after swapped out").
As long as arm64 uses 4K page size, it is quite similar with x86_64
by having 2MB PMD THP. THP_SWAP is architecture-independent, thus,
enabling it on arm64 will benefit arm64 as well.
A corner case is that MTE has an assumption that only base pages
can be swapped. We won't enable THP_SWAP for ARM64 hardware with
MTE support until MTE is reworked to coexist with THP_SWAP.
A micro-benchmark is written to measure thp swapout throughput as
below,
unsigned long long tv_to_ms(struct timeval tv)
{
return tv.tv_sec * 1000 + tv.tv_usec / 1000;
}
main()
{
struct timeval tv_b, tv_e;;
#define SIZE 400*1024*1024
volatile void *p = mmap(NULL, SIZE, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0);
if (!p) {
perror("fail to get memory");
exit(-1);
}
madvise(p, SIZE, MADV_HUGEPAGE);
memset(p, 0x11, SIZE); /* write to get mem */
gettimeofday(&tv_b, NULL);
madvise(p, SIZE, MADV_PAGEOUT);
gettimeofday(&tv_e, NULL);
printf("swp out bandwidth: %ld bytes/ms\n",
SIZE/(tv_to_ms(tv_e) - tv_to_ms(tv_b)));
}
Testing is done on rk3568 64bit Quad Core Cortex-A55 platform -
ROCK 3A.
thp swp throughput w/o patch: 2734bytes/ms (mean of 10 tests)
thp swp throughput w/ patch: 3331bytes/ms (mean of 10 tests)

With ioremap_prot() definition from generic ioremap, also move
pte_pgprot() from hugetlbpage.c into pgtable.h, then arm64 could
have HAVE_IOREMAP_PROT, which will enable generic_access_phys()
code, it is useful for debug, eg, gdb.

arch_faults_on_old_pte() relies on the calling context being
non-preemptible. CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT turns the PTE lock into a sleepable
spinlock, which doesn't disable preemption once acquired, triggering the
warning in arch_faults_on_old_pte().
It does however disable migration, ensuring the task remains on the same
CPU during the entirety of the critical section, making the read of
cpu_has_hw_af() safe and stable.
Make arch_faults_on_old_pte() check cant_migrate() instead of preemptible().

Let's use one of the type bits: core-mm only supports 5, so there is no
need to consume 6.
Note that we might be able to reuse bit 1, but reusing bit 1 turned out
problematic in the past for PROT_NONE handling; so let's play safe and use
another bit.
