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'.
- Some mapletree maintanance work from Liam Howlett in the series
'maple_tree: iterator state changes'.
- Nhat Pham has improved zswap's approach to writeback in the series
'workload-specific and memory pressure-driven zswap writeback'.
- DAMON/DAMOS feature and maintenance work from SeongJae Park in the
series
'mm/damon: let users feed and tame/auto-tune DAMOS'
'selftests/damon: add Python-written DAMON functionality tests'
'mm/damon: misc updates for 6.8'
- Yosry Ahmed has improved memcg's stats flushing in the series 'mm:
memcg: subtree stats flushing and thresholds'.
- In the series 'Multi-size THP for anonymous memory' Ryan Roberts
has added a runtime opt-in feature to transparent hugepages which
improves performance by allocating larger chunks of memory during
anonymous page faults.
- Matthew Wilcox has also contributed some cleanup and maintenance
work against eh buffer_head code int he series 'More buffer_head
cleanups'.
- Suren Baghdasaryan has done work on Andrea Arcangeli's series
'userfaultfd move option'. UFFDIO_MOVE permits userspace heap
compaction algorithms to move userspace's pages around rather than
UFFDIO_COPY'a alloc/copy/free.
- Stefan Roesch has developed a 'KSM Advisor', in the series 'mm/ksm:
Add ksm advisor'. This is a governor which tunes KSM's scanning
aggressiveness in response to userspace's current needs.

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.

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().

- Fix to emulate indirect call which size is not 5 byte.
Current code expects the indirect call instructions are 5 bytes, but
that is incorrect. Usually indirect call based on register is shorter
than that, thus the emulation causes a kernel crash by accessing
wrong instruction boundary. This uses the instruction size to
calculate the return address correctly.

Commit 688eb8191b47 ("x86/csum: Improve performance of `csum_partial`")
ended up improving the code generation for the IP csum calculations, and
in particular special-casing the 40-byte case that is a hot case for
IPv6 headers.
It then had _another_ special case for the 64-byte unrolled loop, which
did two chains of 32-byte blocks, which allows modern CPU's to improve
performance by doing the chains in parallel thanks to renaming the carry
flag.
This just unifies the special cases and combines them into just one
single helper the 40-byte csum case, and replaces the 64-byte case by a
80-byte case that just does that single helper twice. It avoids having
all these different versions of inline assembly, and actually improved
performance further in my tests.
There was never anything magical about the 64-byte unrolled case, even
though it happens to be a common size (and typically is the cacheline
size).

The special case for odd aligned buffers is unnecessary and mostly
just adds overhead. Aligned buffers is the expectations, and even for
unaligned buffer, the only case that was helped is if the buffer was
1-byte from word aligned which is ~1/7 of the cases. Overall it seems
highly unlikely to be worth to extra branch.
It was left in the previous perf improvement patch because I was
erroneously comparing the exact output of `csum_partial(...)`, but
really we only need `csum_fold(csum_partial(...))` to match so its
safe to remove.
All csum kunit tests pass.

When commit c59a1f106f5c ("KVM: x86/pmu: Add IA32_PEBS_ENABLE
MSR emulation for extended PEBS") switched the initialization of
cpuc->guest_switch_msrs to use compound literals, it screwed up
the boolean logic:
+ u64 pebs_mask = cpuc->pebs_enabled & x86_pmu.pebs_capable;
...
- arr[0].guest = intel_ctrl & ~cpuc->intel_ctrl_host_mask;
- arr[0].guest &= ~(cpuc->pebs_enabled & x86_pmu.pebs_capable);
+ .guest = intel_ctrl & (~cpuc->intel_ctrl_host_mask | ~pebs_mask),
Before the patch, the value of arr[0].guest would have been intel_ctrl &
~cpuc->intel_ctrl_host_mask & ~pebs_mask. The intent is to always treat
PEBS events as host-only because, while the guest runs, there is no way
to tell the processor about the virtual address where to put PEBS records
intended for the host.
Unfortunately, the new expression can be expanded to
(intel_ctrl & ~cpuc->intel_ctrl_host_mask) | (intel_ctrl & ~pebs_mask)
which makes no sense; it includes any bit that isn't *both* marked as
exclude_guest and using PEBS. So, reinstate the old logic. Another
way to write it could be "intel_ctrl & ~(cpuc->intel_ctrl_host_mask |
pebs_mask)", presumably the intention of the author of the faulty.
However, I personally find the repeated application of A AND NOT B to
be a bit more readable.
This shows up as guest failures when running concurrent long-running
perf workloads on the host, and was reported to happen with rcutorture.
All guests on a given host would die simultaneously with something like an
instruction fault or a segmentation violation.

GNU objdump outputs "(bad)" instead of "<unknown>", which is already

kprobe_emulate_call_indirect
kprobe_emulate_call_indirect currently uses int3_emulate_call to emulate
indirect calls. However, int3_emulate_call always assumes the size of
the call to be 5 bytes when calculating the return address. This is
incorrect for register-based indirect calls in x86, which can be either
2 or 3 bytes depending on whether REX prefix is used. At kprobe runtime,
the incorrect return address causes control flow to land onto the wrong
place after return -- possibly not a valid instruction boundary. This
can lead to a panic like the following:

[ 7.332730][ C1] Kernel Offset: disabled
[ 7.333044][ C1] ---[ end Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt ]---
The relevant assembly code is (from objdump, faulting address
highlighted):
ffffffff8102ed9d: 41 ff d3 call *%r11
ffffffff8102eda0: 65 48 <8b> 05 30 c7 ff mov %gs:0x7effc730(%rip),%rax
The emulation incorrectly sets the return address to be ffffffff8102ed9d
+ 0x5 = ffffffff8102eda2, which is the 8b byte in the middle of the next
mov. This in turn causes incorrect subsequent instruction decoding and
eventually triggers the page fault above.
Instead of invoking int3_emulate_call, perform push and jmp emulation
directly in kprobe_emulate_call_indirect. At this point we can obtain
the instruction size from p->ainsn.size so that we can calculate the
correct return address.

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.

x86/xen: add CPU dependencies for 32-bit build
|

Xen only supports modern CPUs even when running a 32-bit kernel, and it now
requires a kernel built for a 64 byte (or larger) cache line:
In file included from <command-line>:
In function 'xen_vcpu_setup',
inlined from 'xen_vcpu_setup_restore' at arch/x86/xen/enlighten.c:111:3,
inlined from 'xen_vcpu_restore' at arch/x86/xen/enlighten.c:141:3:

166 | BUILD_BUG_ON(sizeof(*vcpup) > SMP_CACHE_BYTES);
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~
Enforce the dependency with a whitelist of CPU configurations. In normal
distro kernels, CONFIG_X86_GENERIC is enabled, and this works fine. When this
is not set, still allow Xen to be built on kernels that target a 64-bit
capable CPU.

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:

The cleanup for the CONFIG_KEXEC Kconfig logic accidentally changed the
'depends on CRYPTO=y' dependency to a plain 'depends on CRYPTO', which
causes a link failure when all the crypto support is in a loadable module
and kexec_file support is built-in:
x86_64-linux-ld: vmlinux.o: in function `__x64_sys_kexec_file_load':
(.text+0x32e30a): undefined reference to `crypto_alloc_shash'
x86_64-linux-ld: (.text+0x32e58e): undefined reference to `crypto_shash_update'
x86_64-linux-ld: (.text+0x32e6ee): undefined reference to `crypto_shash_final'
Both s390 and x86 have this problem, while ppc64 and riscv have the
correct dependency already. On riscv, the dependency is only used for the
purgatory, not for the kexec_file code itself, which may be a bit
surprising as it means that with CONFIG_CRYPTO=m, it is possible to enable
KEXEC_FILE but then the purgatory code is silently left out.
Move this into the common Kconfig.kexec file in a way that is correct
everywhere, using the dependency on CRYPTO_SHA256=y only when the
purgatory code is available. This requires reversing the dependency
between ARCH_SUPPORTS_KEXEC_PURGATORY and KEXEC_FILE, but the effect
remains the same, other than making riscv behave like the other ones.
On s390, there is an additional dependency on CRYPTO_SHA256_S390, which
should technically not be required but gives better performance. Remove
this dependency here, noting that it was not present in the initial
Kconfig code but was brought in without an explanation in commit
71406883fd357 ("s390/kexec_file: Add kexec_file_load system call").

The D/B size flag for the 32-bit percpu GDT entry was not set.
The Intel manual (vol 3, section 3.4.5) only specifies the meaning of
this flag for three cases:
1) code segments used for %cs -- doesn't apply here
2) stack segments used for %ss -- doesn't apply
3) expand-down data segments -- but we don't have the expand-down flag
set, so it also doesn't apply here
The flag likely doesn't do anything here, although the manual does also
say: "This flag should always be set to 1 for 32-bit code and data
segments [...]" so we should probably do it anyway.

We'd like to replace all the magic numbers in various GDT descriptors
with new, semantically meaningful, symbolic values.
In order to be able to verify that the change doesn't cause any actual
changes to the compiled binary code, I've split the change into two
patches:
- Part 1 (this commit): everything _but_ actually replacing the numbers
- Part 2 (the following commit): _only_ replacing the numbers
The reason we need this split for verification is that including new
headers causes some spurious changes to the object files, mostly line
number changes in the debug info but occasionally other subtle codegen
changes.

Linus suggested replacing the magic numbers in the GDT descriptors
using preprocessor macros. Designing the interface properly is actually
pretty hard -- there are several constraints:
- you want the final expressions to be readable at a glance; something
like GDT_ENTRY_FLAGS(5, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0) isn't because you need
to visit the definition to understand what each parameter represents
and then match up parameters in the user and the definition (which is
hard when there are so many of them)
- you want the final expressions to be fairly short/information-dense;
something like GDT_ENTRY_PRESENT | GDT_ENTRY_DATA_WRITABLE |
GDT_ENTRY_SYSTEM | GDT_ENTRY_DB | GDT_ENTRY_GRANULARITY_4K is a bit
too verbose to write out every time and is actually hard to read as
well because of all the repetition
- you may want to assume defaults for some things (e.g. entries are
DPL-0 a.k.a. kernel segments by default) and allow the user to
override the default -- but this works best if you can OR in the
override; if you want DPL-3 by default and override with DPL-0 you
would need to start masking off bits instead of OR-ing them in and
that just becomes harder to read
- you may want to parameterize some things (e.g. CODE vs. DATA or
KERNEL vs. USER) since both values are used and you don't really
want prefer either one by default -- or DPL, which is always some
value that is always specified
This patch tries to balance these requirements and has two layers of
definitions -- low-level and high-level:
- the low-level defines are the mapping between human-readable names
and the actual bit numbers
- the high-level defines are the mapping from high-level intent to
combinations of low-level flags, representing roughly a tuple
(data/code/tss, 64/32/16-bits) plus an override for DPL-3 (= USER),
since that's relatively rare but still very important to mark
properly for those segments.
- we have *_BIOS variants for 32-bit code and data segments that don't
have the G flag set and give the limit in terms of bytes instead of
pages

While looking at a Xen Kconfig dependency issue, I tried to understand the
exact dependencies for CONFIG_X86_PAE, which is selected by CONFIG_HIGHMEM64G
but can also be enabled manually.
Apparently the dependencies for CONFIG_HIGHMEM64G are strictly about CPUs
that do support PAE, but the actual feature can be incorrectly enabled on
older CPUs as well. The CONFIG_X86_CMPXCHG64 dependencies on the other hand
include X86_PAE because cmpxchg8b is requried for PAE to work.
Rework this for readability and correctness, using a positive list of CPUs
that support PAE in a new X86_HAVE_PAE symbol that can serve as a dependency
for both X86_PAE and HIGHMEM64G as well as simplify the X86_CMPXCHG64
dependency list.

The recent fix to ignore invalid x2APIC entries inadvertently broke
systems with creative MADT APIC tables. The affected systems have APIC
MADT tables where all entries have invalid APIC IDs (0xFF), which means
they register exactly zero CPUs.
But the condition to ignore the entries of APIC IDs < 255 in the X2APIC
MADT table is solely based on the count of MADT APIC table entries.
As a consequence, the affected machines enumerate no secondary CPUs at
all because the APIC table has entries and therefore the X2APIC table
entries with APIC IDs < 255 are ignored.
Change the condition so that the APIC table preference for APIC IDs <
255 only becomes effective when the APIC table has valid APIC ID
entries.
IOW, an APIC table full of invalid APIC IDs is considered to be empty
which in consequence enables the X2APIC table entries with a APIC ID
< 255 and restores the expected behaviour.

apply_alternatives() treats alternatives with the ALT_FLAG_NOT flag set
special as it optimizes the existing NOPs in place.
Unfortunately, this happens with interrupts enabled and does not provide any
form of core synchronization.
So an interrupt hitting in the middle of the update and using the affected code
path will observe a half updated NOP and crash and burn. The following
3 NOP sequence was observed to expose this crash halfway reliably under QEMU
32bit:
0x90 0x90 0x90
which is replaced by the optimized 3 byte NOP:
0x8d 0x76 0x00
So an interrupt can observe:
1) 0x90 0x90 0x90 nop nop nop
2) 0x8d 0x90 0x90 undefined
3) 0x8d 0x76 0x90 lea -0x70(%esi),%esi
4) 0x8d 0x76 0x00 lea 0x0(%esi),%esi
Where only #1 and #4 are true NOPs. The same problem exists for 64bit obviously.
Disable interrupts around this NOP optimization and invoke sync_core()
before re-enabling them.
