Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
"Many singleton patches against the MM code. The patch series which are
included in this merge do the following:
- Peng Zhang has done some mapletree maintainance work in the series
'maple_tree: add mt_free_one() and mt_attr() helpers'
'Some cleanups of maple tree'
- In the series 'mm: use memmap_on_memory semantics for dax/kmem'
Vishal Verma has altered the interworking between memory-hotplug
and dax/kmem so that newly added 'device memory' can more easily
have its memmap placed within that newly added memory.
- Matthew Wilcox continues folio-related work (including a few fixes)
in the patch series
'Add folio_zero_tail() and folio_fill_tail()'
'Make folio_start_writeback return void'
'Fix fault handler's handling of poisoned tail pages'
'Convert aops->error_remove_page to ->error_remove_folio'
'Finish two folio conversions'
'More swap folio conversions'
- Kefeng Wang has also contributed folio-related work in the series
'mm: cleanup and use more folio in page fault'
- Jim Cromie has improved the kmemleak reporting output in the series
'tweak kmemleak report format'.
- In the series 'stackdepot: allow evicting stack traces' Andrey
Konovalov to permits clients (in this case KASAN) to cause eviction
of no longer needed stack traces.
- Charan Teja Kalla has fixed some accounting issues in the page
allocator's atomic reserve calculations in the series 'mm:
page_alloc: fixes for high atomic reserve caluculations'.
- Dmitry Rokosov has added to the samples/ dorectory some sample code
for a userspace memcg event listener application. See the series
'samples: introduce cgroup events listeners'.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vbabka/slab
Pull slab updates from Vlastimil Babka:
- SLUB: delayed freezing of CPU partial slabs (Chengming Zhou)
Freezing is an operation involving double_cmpxchg() that makes a slab
exclusive for a particular CPU. Chengming noticed that we use it also
in situations where we are not yet installing the slab as the CPU
slab, because freezing also indicates that the slab is not on the
shared list. This results in redundant freeze/unfreeze operation and
can be avoided by marking separately the shared list presence by
reusing the PG_workingset flag.
This approach neatly avoids the issues described in 9b1ea29bc0d7
("Revert "mm, slub: consider rest of partial list if acquire_slab()
fails"") as we can now grab a slab from the shared list in a quick
and guaranteed way without the cmpxchg_double() operation that
amplifies the lock contention and can fail.
As a result, lkp has reported 34.2% improvement of
stress-ng.rawudp.ops_per_sec
- SLAB removal and SLUB cleanups (Vlastimil Babka)
The SLAB allocator has been deprecated since 6.5 and nobody has
objected so far. We agreed at LSF/MM to wait until the next LTS,
which is 6.6, so we should be good to go now.
This doesn't yet erase all traces of SLAB outside of mm/ so some dead
code, comments or documentation remain, and will be cleaned up
gradually (some series are already in the works).
Removing the choice of allocators has already allowed to simplify and
optimize the code wiring up the kmalloc APIs to the SLUB
implementation.

Commit d8b0f5465012 ("wire up syscalls for statmount/listmount") added
two new system calls to arch/arm64/include/asm/unistd32.h but forgot to
update the __NR_compat_syscalls number, thus causing the following build
failures:
arch/arm64/include/asm/unistd32.h:922:24: error: array index in initializer exceeds array bounds
922 | #define __NR_statmount 457
| ^~~
arch/arm64/kernel/sys32.c:130:34: note: in definition of macro '__SYSCALL'
130 | #define __SYSCALL(nr, sym) [nr] = __arm64_##sym,
| ^~
Bump up the number by two to accomodate for the new system calls added.

commit 23baf831a32c ("mm, treewide: redefine MAX_ORDER sanely") has
changed the definition of MAX_ORDER to be inclusive. This has caused
issues with code that was not yet upstream and depended on the previous
definition.
To draw attention to the altered meaning of the define, rename MAX_ORDER
to MAX_PAGE_ORDER.

NR_PAGE_ORDERS defines the number of page orders supported by the page
allocator, ranging from 0 to MAX_ORDER, MAX_ORDER + 1 in total.
NR_PAGE_ORDERS assists in defining arrays of page orders and allows for

Pull vfs mount updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the work to retrieve detailed information about mounts
via two new system calls. This is hopefully the beginning of the end
of the saga that started with fsinfo() years ago.
The LWN articles in [1] and [2] can serve as a summary so we can avoid
rehashing everything here.
At LSFMM in May 2022 we got into a room and agreed on what we want to
do about fsinfo(). Basically, split it into pieces. This is the first
part of that agreement. Specifically, it is concerned with retrieving
information about mounts. So this only concerns the mount information
retrieval, not the mount table change notification, or the extended
filesystem specific mount option work. That is separate work.
Currently mounts have a 32bit id. Mount ids are already in heavy use
by libmount and other low-level userspace but they can't be relied
upon because they're recycled very quickly. We agreed that mounts
should carry a unique 64bit id by which they can be referenced
directly. This is now implemented as part of this work.
The new 64bit mount id is exposed in statx() through the new
STATX_MNT_ID_UNIQUE flag. If the flag isn't raised the old mount id is
returned. If it is raised and the kernel supports the new 64bit mount
id the flag is raised in the result mask and the new 64bit mount id is
returned. New and old mount ids do not overlap so they cannot be
conflated.
Two new system calls are introduced that operate on the 64bit mount
id: statmount() and listmount(). A summary of the api and usage can be
found on LWN as well (cf. [3]) but of course, I'll provide a summary
here as well.
Both system calls rely on struct mnt_id_req. Which is the request
struct used to pass the 64bit mount id identifying the mount to
operate on. It is extensible to allow for the addition of new
parameters and for future use in other apis that make use of mount
ids.
statmount() mimicks the semantics of statx() and exposes a set flags
that userspace may raise in mnt_id_req to request specific information
to be retrieved. A statmount() call returns a struct statmount filled
in with information about the requested mount. Supported requests are
indicated by raising the request flag passed in struct mnt_id_req in
the @mask argument in struct statmount.
Currently we do support:
- STATMOUNT_SB_BASIC:
Basic filesystem info
- STATMOUNT_MNT_BASIC
Mount information (mount id, parent mount id, mount attributes etc)
- STATMOUNT_PROPAGATE_FROM
Propagation from what mount in current namespace
- STATMOUNT_MNT_ROOT
Path of the root of the mount (e.g., mount --bind /bla /mnt returns /bla)
- STATMOUNT_MNT_POINT
Path of the mount point (e.g., mount --bind /bla /mnt returns /mnt)
- STATMOUNT_FS_TYPE
Name of the filesystem type as the magic number isn't enough due to submounts
The string options STATMOUNT_MNT_{ROOT,POINT} and STATMOUNT_FS_TYPE
are appended to the end of the struct. Userspace can use the offsets
in @fs_type, @mnt_root, and @mnt_point to reference those strings
easily.
The struct statmount reserves quite a bit of space currently for
future extensibility. This isn't really a problem and if this bothers
us we can just send a follow-up pull request during this cycle.
listmount() is given a 64bit mount id via mnt_id_req just as
statmount(). It takes a buffer and a size to return an array of the
64bit ids of the child mounts of the requested mount. Userspace can
thus choose to either retrieve child mounts for a mount in batches or
iterate through the child mounts. For most use-cases it will be
sufficient to just leave space for a few child mounts. But for big
mount tables having an iterator is really helpful. Iterating through a
mount table works by setting @param in mnt_id_req to the mount id of
the last child mount retrieved in the previous listmount() call"

Patch series "mm/mglru: Kconfig cleanup", v4.
This series is the result of the following discussion:
https://lore.kernel.org/47066176-bd93-55dd-c2fa-002299d9e034@linux.ibm.com/
It mainly avoids building the code that walks page tables on CPUs that
use it, i.e., those don't support hardware accessed bit. Specifically,
it introduces a new Kconfig to guard some of functions added by
commit bd74fdaea146 ("mm: multi-gen LRU: support page table walks")
on CPUs like POWER9, on which the series was tested.
This patch (of 5):
Some architectures are able to set the accessed bit in PTEs when PTEs
are used as part of linear address translations.
Add CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_HW_PTE_YOUNG for such architectures to be able to
override arch_has_hw_pte_young().

A test [1] in Android test suite started failing after [2] was merged. It
turns out that after handling a major fault under per-VMA lock, the
process major fault counter does not register that fault as major. Before
[2] read faults would be done under mmap_lock, in which case
FAULT_FLAG_TRIED flag is set before retrying. That in turn causes
mm_account_fault() to account the fault as major once retry completes.
With per-VMA locks we often retry because a fault can't be handled without
locking the whole mm using mmap_lock. Therefore such retries do not set
FAULT_FLAG_TRIED flag. This logic does not work after [2] because we can
now handle read major faults under per-VMA lock and upon retry the fact
there was a major fault gets lost. Fix this by setting FAULT_FLAG_TRIED
after retrying under per-VMA lock if VM_FAULT_MAJOR was returned. Ideally
we would use an additional VM_FAULT bit to indicate the reason for the
retry (could not handle under per-VMA lock vs other reason) but this
simpler solution seems to work, so keeping it simple.

Use the new capacity_ref_freq() method to set the ratio that is used by AMU for
computing the arch_scale_freq_capacity().
This helps to keep everything aligned using the same reference for
computing CPUs capacity.
The default value of the ratio (stored in per_cpu(arch_max_freq_scale))
ensures that arch_scale_freq_capacity() returns max capacity until it is
set to its correct value with the cpu capacity and capacity_ref_freq().

Create a new method to get a unique and fixed max frequency. Currently
cpuinfo.max_freq or the highest (or last) state of performance domain are
used as the max frequency when computing the frequency for a level of
utilization, but:
- cpuinfo_max_freq can change at runtime. boost is one example of
such change.
- cpuinfo.max_freq and last item of the PD can be different leading to
different results between cpufreq and energy model.
We need to save the reference frequency that has been used when computing
the CPUs capacity and use this fixed and coherent value to convert between
frequency and CPU's capacity.
In fact, we already save the frequency that has been used when computing
the capacity of each CPU. We extend the precision to save kHz instead of
MHz currently and we modify the type to be aligned with other variables
used when converting frequency to capacity and the other way.

Only the posix timer system calls use this (when the posix timer support
is disabled, which does not actually happen in any normal case), because
they had debug code to print out a warning about missing system calls.
Get rid of that special case, and just use the standard COND_SYSCALL
interface that creates weak system call stubs that return -ENOSYS for
when the system call does not exist.
This fixes a kCFI issue with the SYS_NI() hackery:

You do not need to use $(shell ...) in recipe lines, as they are already
executed in a shell. An alternative solution is $$(...), which is an
escaped sequence of the shell's command substituion, $(...).
For this case, there is a reason to avoid $(shell ...).
Kbuild detects command changes by using the if_changed macro, which
compares the previous command recorded in .*.cmd with the current
command from Makefile. If they differ, Kbuild re-runs the build rule.
To diff the commands, Make must expand $(shell ...) first. It means that
hexdump is executed every time, even when nothing needs rebuilding. If
Kbuild determines that vmlinux.bin needs rebuilding, hexdump will be
executed again to evaluate the 'cmd' macro, one more time to really
build vmlinux.bin, and finally yet again to record the expanded command
into .*.cmd.
Replace $(shell ...) with $$(...) to avoid multiple, unnecessay shell
evaluations. Since Make is agnostic about the shell code, $(...), the
if_changed macro compares the string "$(hexdump -s16 -n4 ...)" verbatim,
so hexdump is run only for building vmlinux.bin.
For the same reason, $(shell ...) in EFI_ZBOOT_OBJCOPY_FLAGS should be
eliminated.
While I was here, I replaced '&&' with ';' because a command for
if_changed is executed with 'set -e'.

If you select CONFIG_EFI_ZBOOT, we will generate vmlinuz.efi, and then
when we go to install the kernel we'll install the vmlinux instead
because install.sh only recognizes Image.gz as wanting the compressed
install image. With CONFIG_EFI_ZBOOT we don't get the proper kernel
installed, which means it doesn't boot, which makes for a very confused
and subsequently angry kernel developer.
Fix this by properly installing our compressed kernel if we've enabled
CONFIG_EFI_ZBOOT.

Currently the detection+enablement of boot cpucaps is separate from the
patching of boot cpucap alternatives, which means there's a period where
cpus_have_cap($CAP) and alternative_has_cap($CAP) may be mismatched.
It would be preferable to manage the boot cpucaps in the same way as the
system cpucaps, both for clarity and to minimize the risk of accidental
usage of code relying upon an alternative which has not yet been
patched.
This patch aligns the handling of boot cpucaps with the handling of
system cpucaps:
* The existing setup_boot_cpu_capabilities() function is moved to be
closer to the setup_system_capabilities() and setup_system_features()
functions so that they're more clearly related and more likely to be
updated together in future.
* The patching of boot cpucap alternatives is moved into
setup_boot_cpu_capabilities(), immediately after boot cpucaps are
detected and enabled.
* A new setup_boot_cpu_features() function is added to mirror
setup_system_features(); this handles initialization of cpucap data
structures and calls setup_boot_cpu_capabilities(). This makes
init_cpu_features() a closer mirror to update_cpu_features(), and
makes smp_prepare_boot_cpu() a closer mirror to smp_cpus_done().
Importantly, while these changes alter the structure of the code, they
retain the existing order of calls to:
init_cpu_features(); // prefix initializing feature regs
init_cpucap_indirect_list();
detect_system_supports_pseudo_nmi();
update_cpu_capabilities(SCOPE_BOOT_CPU | SCOPE_LOCAL_CPU);
enable_cpu_capabilities(SCOPE_BOOT_CPU);
apply_boot_alternatives();
... and hence there should be no functional change as a result of this
patch; this is purely a structural cleanup.

Recent changes to remove cpus_have_const_cap() introduced new users of
cpus_have_cap() in the period between detecting system cpucaps and
patching alternatives. It would be preferable to defer these until after
the relevant cpucaps have been patched so that these can use the usual
feature check helper functions, which is clearer and has less risk of
accidental usage of code relying upon an alternative which has not yet
been patched.
This patch reworks the system-wide cpucap detection and patching to
minimize this transient period:
* The detection, enablement, and patching of system cpucaps is moved
into a new setup_system_capabilities() function so that these can be
grouped together more clearly, with no other functions called in the
period between detection and patching. This is called from
setup_system_features() before the subsequent checks that depend on
the cpucaps.
The logging of TTBR0 PAN and cpucaps with a mask is also moved here to
keep these as close as possible to update_cpu_capabilities().
At the same time, comments are corrected and improved to make the
intent clearer.
* As hyp_mode_check() only tests system register values (not hwcaps) and
must be called prior to patching, the call to hyp_mode_check() is
moved before the call to setup_system_features().
* In setup_system_features(), the use of system_uses_ttbr0_pan() is
restored, now that this occurs after alternatives are patched. This is
a partial revert of commit:
53d62e995d9eaed1 ("arm64: Avoid cpus_have_const_cap() for ARM64_HAS_PAN")
* In sve_setup() and sme_setup(), the use of system_supports_sve() and
system_supports_sme() respectively are restored, now that these occur
after alternatives are patched. This is a partial revert of commit:
a76521d160284a1e ("arm64: Avoid cpus_have_const_cap() for ARM64_{SVE,SME,SME2,FA64}")

It is currently possible for a userspace application to enter an
infinite page fault loop when using HugeTLB pages implemented with
contiguous PTEs when HAFDBS is not available. This happens because:
1. The kernel may sometimes write PTEs that are sw-dirty but hw-clean
(PTE_DIRTY | PTE_RDONLY | PTE_WRITE).
2. If, during a write, the CPU uses a sw-dirty, hw-clean PTE in handling
the memory access on a system without HAFDBS, we will get a page
fault.
3. HugeTLB will check if it needs to update the dirty bits on the PTE.
For contiguous PTEs, it will check to see if the pgprot bits need
updating. In this case, HugeTLB wants to write a sequence of
sw-dirty, hw-dirty PTEs, but it finds that all the PTEs it is about
to overwrite are all pte_dirty() (pte_sw_dirty() => pte_dirty()),
so it thinks no update is necessary.
We can get the kernel to write a sw-dirty, hw-clean PTE with the
following steps (showing the relevant VMA flags and pgprot bits):
i. Create a valid, writable contiguous PTE.
VMA vmflags: VM_SHARED | VM_READ | VM_WRITE
VMA pgprot bits: PTE_RDONLY | PTE_WRITE
PTE pgprot bits: PTE_DIRTY | PTE_WRITE
ii. mprotect the VMA to PROT_NONE.
VMA vmflags: VM_SHARED
VMA pgprot bits: PTE_RDONLY
PTE pgprot bits: PTE_DIRTY | PTE_RDONLY
iii. mprotect the VMA back to PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE.
VMA vmflags: VM_SHARED | VM_READ | VM_WRITE
VMA pgprot bits: PTE_RDONLY | PTE_WRITE
PTE pgprot bits: PTE_DIRTY | PTE_WRITE | PTE_RDONLY
Make it impossible to create a writeable sw-dirty, hw-clean PTE with
pte_modify(). Such a PTE should be impossible to create, and there may
be places that assume that pte_dirty() implies pte_hw_dirty().

Now that kernel mode FPSIMD state is context switched along with other
task state, we can enable the existing logic that keeps track of which
task's FPSIMD state the CPU is holding in its registers. If it is the
context of the task that we are switching to, we can elide the reload of
the FPSIMD state from memory.
Note that we also need to check whether the FPSIMD state on this CPU is
the most recent: if a task gets migrated away and back again, the state
in memory may be more recent than the state in the CPU. So add another
CPU id field to task_struct to keep track of this. (We could reuse the
existing CPU id field used for user mode context, but that might result
in user state to be discarded unnecessarily, given that two distinct
CPUs could be holding the most recent user mode state and the most
recent kernel mode state)

Currently, the FPSIMD register file is not preserved and restored along
with the general registers on exception entry/exit or context switch.
For this reason, we disable preemption when enabling FPSIMD for kernel
mode use in task context, and suspend the processing of softirqs so that
there are no concurrent uses in the kernel. (Kernel mode FPSIMD may not
be used at all in other contexts).
Disabling preemption while doing CPU intensive work on inputs of
potentially unbounded size is bad for real-time performance, which is
why we try and ensure that SIMD crypto code does not operate on more
than ~4k at a time, which is an arbitrary limit and requires assembler
code to implement efficiently.
We can avoid the need for disabling preemption if we can ensure that any
in-kernel users of the NEON will not lose the FPSIMD register state
across a context switch. And given that disabling softirqs implicitly
disables preemption as well, we will also have to ensure that a softirq
that runs code using FPSIMD can safely interrupt an in-kernel user.
So introduce a thread_info flag TIF_KERNEL_FPSTATE, and modify the
context switch hook for FPSIMD to preserve and restore the kernel mode
FPSIMD to/from struct thread_struct when it is set. This avoids any
scheduling blackouts due to prolonged use of FPSIMD in kernel mode,
without the need for manual yielding.
In order to support softirq processing while FPSIMD is being used in
kernel task context, use the same flag to decide whether the kernel mode
FPSIMD state needs to be preserved and restored before allowing FPSIMD
to be used in softirq context.

Kernel mode NEON will preserve the user mode FPSIMD state by saving it
into the task struct before clobbering the registers. In order to avoid
the need for preserving kernel mode state too, we disallow nested use of
kernel mode NEON, i..e, use in softirq context while the interrupted
task context was using kernel mode NEON too.
Originally, this policy was implemented using a per-CPU flag which was
exposed via may_use_simd(), requiring the users of the kernel mode NEON
to deal with the possibility that it might return false, and having NEON
and non-NEON code paths. This policy was changed by commit
13150149aa6ded1 ("arm64: fpsimd: run kernel mode NEON with softirqs
disabled"), and now, softirq processing is disabled entirely instead,
and so may_use_simd() can never fail when called from task or softirq
context.
This means we can drop the fpsimd_context_busy flag entirely, and
instead, ensure that we disable softirq processing in places where we
formerly relied on the flag for preventing races in the FPSIMD preserve
routines.

Parsing and ignoring 'nokaslr' can be done from anywhere, except from
the code that runs very early and is therefore built with limitations on
the kind of relocations it is permitted to use.
So move it to a source file that is part of the ordinary kernel build.
