Patch series "mm/damon: deprecate DAMON debugfs interface".
DAMON debugfs interface has announced to be deprecated after >v5.15 LTS
kernel is released. And v6.1.y has been announced to be an LTS[1].
Though the announcement was there for a while, some people might not have
noticed that so far. Also, some users could depend on it and have
problems at movng to the alternative (DAMON sysfs interface).
For such cases, keep the code and documents with warning messages and
contacts to ask helps for the deprecation.

This will allow tuning of zsmalloc pool as zspage chain size changes
`pages per-zspage` and `objects per-zspage` characteristics of size
classes which also affects size classes clustering (the way size classes

__GFP_ATOMIC serves little purpose. Its main effect is to set
ALLOC_HARDER which adds a few little boosts to increase the chance of an
allocation succeeding, one of which is to lower the water-mark at which it
will succeed.
It is *always* paired with __GFP_HIGH which sets ALLOC_HIGH which also
adjusts this watermark. It is probable that other users of __GFP_HIGH
should benefit from the other little bonuses that __GFP_ATOMIC gets.
__GFP_ATOMIC also gives a warning if used with __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM.
There is little point to this. We already get a might_sleep() warning if
__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM is set.
__GFP_ATOMIC allows the "watermark_boost" to be side-stepped. It is
probable that testing ALLOC_HARDER is a better fit here.
__GFP_ATOMIC is used by tegra-smmu.c to check if the allocation might
sleep. This should test __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM instead.
This patch:
- removes __GFP_ATOMIC
- allows __GFP_HIGH allocations to ignore watermark boosting as well
as GFP_ATOMIC requests.
- makes other adjustments as suggested by the above.
The net result is not change to GFP_ATOMIC allocations. Other
allocations that use __GFP_HIGH will benefit from a few different extra
privileges. This affects:
xen, dm, md, ntfs3
the vermillion frame buffer
hibernation
ksm
swap
all of which likely produce more benefit than cost if these selected
allocation are more likely to succeed quickly.

We now pass folios to these functions, so update the documentation
accordingly.
Additionally, correct the outdated reference to __pagevec_lru_add_fn(),
the referenced action occurs in __munlock_folio() directly now, replace
reference to lru_cache_add_inactive_or_unevictable() with the modern folio
equivalent folio_add_lru_vma() and reference folio flags by the flag name
rather than accessor.

kmap() and kmap_atomic() have been deprecated. kmap_local_page() should
always be used in new code and the call sites of the two deprecated
functions should be converted. This latter task can lead to errors if it
is not carried out with the necessary attention to the context around and
between the maps and unmaps.
Therefore, add further information to the Highmem's documentation for the
purpose to make it clearer that (1) kmap() and kmap_atomic() must not any
longer be called in new code and (2) developers doing conversions from
kmap() amd kmap_atomic() are expected to take care of the context around
and between the maps and unmaps, in order to not break the code.
Relevant parts of this patch have been taken from messages exchanged
privately with Ira Weiny (thanks!).

Merge branch 'mm-hotfixes-stable' into mm-stable

This reverts commit 12a5d3955227b0d7e04fb793ccceeb2a1dd275c5.
Although it is recognized that a finer grained pro-active reclaim is
something we need and want the semantic of this implementation is really
ambiguous.
In a follow up discussion it became clear that there are two essential
usecases here. One is to use memory.reclaim to pro-actively reclaim
memory and expectation is that the requested and reported amount of memory
is uncharged from the memcg. Another usecase focuses on pro-active
demotion when the memory is merely shuffled around to demotion targets
while the overall charged memory stays unchanged.
The current implementation considers demoted pages as reclaimed and that
break both usecases. [1] has tried to address the reporting part but
there are more issues with that summarized in [2] and follow up emails.
Let's revert the nodemask based extension of the memcg pro-active
reclaim for now until we settle with a more robust semantic.

As Hardware Tag-Based KASAN is intended to be used in production, its
performance impact is crucial. As page_alloc allocations tend to be big,
tagging and checking all such allocations can introduce a significant
slowdown.
Add two new boot parameters that allow to alleviate that slowdown:
- kasan.page_alloc.sample, which makes Hardware Tag-Based KASAN tag only
every Nth page_alloc allocation with the order configured by the second
added parameter (default: tag every such allocation).
- kasan.page_alloc.sample.order, which makes sampling enabled by the first
parameter only affect page_alloc allocations with the order equal or
greater than the specified value (default: 3, see below).
The exact performance improvement caused by using the new parameters
depends on their values and the applied workload.
The chosen default value for kasan.page_alloc.sample.order is 3, which
matches both PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER and SKB_FRAG_PAGE_ORDER. This is
done for two reasons:
1. PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER is "the order at which allocations are deemed
costly to service", which corresponds to the idea that only large and
thus costly allocations are supposed to sampled.
2. One of the workloads targeted by this patch is a benchmark that sends
a large amount of data over a local loopback connection. Most multi-page
data allocations in the networking subsystem have the order of
SKB_FRAG_PAGE_ORDER (or PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER).
When running a local loopback test on a testing MTE-enabled device in sync
mode, enabling Hardware Tag-Based KASAN introduces a ~50% slowdown.
Applying this patch and setting kasan.page_alloc.sampling to a value
higher than 1 allows to lower the slowdown. The performance improvement
saturates around the sampling interval value of 10 with the default
sampling page order of 3. This lowers the slowdown to ~20%. The slowdown
in real scenarios involving the network will likely be better.
Enabling page_alloc sampling has a downside: KASAN misses bad accesses to
a page_alloc allocation that has not been tagged. This lowers the value
of KASAN as a security mitigation.
However, based on measuring the number of page_alloc allocations of
different orders during boot in a test build, sampling with the default
kasan.page_alloc.sample.order value affects only ~7% of allocations. The
rest ~93% of allocations are still checked deterministically.

Charge moving mode in cgroup1 allows memory to follow tasks as they
migrate between cgroups. This is, and always has been, a questionable
thing to do - for several reasons.
First, it's expensive. Pages need to be identified, locked and isolated
from various MM operations, and reassigned, one by one.
Second, it's unreliable. Once pages are charged to a cgroup, there isn't
always a clear owner task anymore. Cache isn't moved at all, for example.
Mapped memory is moved - but if trylocking or isolating a page fails,
it's arbitrarily left behind. Frequent moving between domains may leave a
task's memory scattered all over the place.
Third, it isn't really needed. Launcher tasks can kick off workload tasks
directly in their target cgroup. Using dedicated per-workload groups
allows fine-grained policy adjustments - no need to move tasks and their
physical pages between control domains. The feature was never
forward-ported to cgroup2, and it hasn't been missed.
Despite it being a niche usecase, the maintenance overhead of supporting
it is enormous. Because pages are moved while they are live and subject
to various MM operations, the synchronization rules are complicated.
There are lock_page_memcg() in MM and FS code, which non-cgroup people
don't understand. In some cases we've been able to shift code and cgroup
API calls around such that we can rely on native locking as much as
possible. But that's fragile, and sometimes we need to hold MM locks for
longer than we otherwise would (pte lock e.g.).
Mark the feature deprecated. Hopefully we can remove it soon.
And backport into -stable kernels so that people who develop against
earlier kernels are warned about this deprecation as early as possible.

"This became a slightly big update, but it's more or less expected, as
the first batch after holidays.
All changes (but for the last two last-minute fixes) have been stewed
in linux-next long enough, so it's fairly safe to take:
- PCM UAF fix in 32bit compat layer
- ASoC board-specific fixes for Intel, AMD, Medathek, Qualcomm
- SOF power management fixes
- ASoC Intel link failure fixes
- A series of fixes for USB-audio regressions
- CS35L41 HD-audio codec regression fixes
- HD-audio device-specific fixes / quirks
Note that one SPI patch has been taken in ASoC subtree mistakenly, and
the same fix is found in spi tree, but it should be OK to apply"

Display Fixes:
- Fix the documentation for dpu_encoder_phys_wb_init() and
dpu_encoder_phys_wb_setup_fb() APIs to address doc warnings
- Remove vcca-supply and vdds-supply as mandatory for 14nm PHY and
10nm PHY DT schemas respectively as they are not present on some
SOCs using these PHYs
- Add the dsi-phy-regulator-ldo-mode to dsi-phy-28nm.yaml as it was
missed out during txt to yaml migration
- Remove operating-points-v2 and power-domain as a required property
for the DSI controller as thats not the case for every SOC
- Fix the description from display escape clock to display core
clock in the dsi controller yaml
- Fix the memory leak for mdp1-mem path for the cases when we return
early after failing to get mdp0-mem ICC paths for msm

isr. This fixes a big hitter stability bug on chromebooks.
- Add protection against null pointer dereference when there is no
kms object as in the case of headless adreno GPU in the shutdown
path.
GPU Fixes:
- a5xx: fix quirks to actually be a bitmask and not overwrite each
other
- a6xx: fix gx halt sequence to avoid 1000ms hang on some devices
- kexec shutdown fix
- fix potential double free

In commit 14243b387137a ("KVM: x86/xen: Add KVM_IRQ_ROUTING_XEN_EVTCHN
and event channel delivery") the clever version of me left some helpful
notes for those who would come after him:
/*
* For the irqfd workqueue, using the main kvm->lock mutex is
* fine since this function is invoked from kvm_set_irq() with
* no other lock held, no srcu. In future if it will be called
* directly from a vCPU thread (e.g. on hypercall for an IPI)
* then it may need to switch to using a leaf-node mutex for
* serializing the shared_info mapping.
*/
mutex_lock(&kvm->lock);
In commit 2fd6df2f2b47 ("KVM: x86/xen: intercept EVTCHNOP_send from guests")
the other version of me ran straight past that comment without reading it,
and introduced a potential deadlock by taking vcpu->mutex and kvm->lock
in the wrong order.
Solve this as originally suggested, by adding a leaf-node lock in the Xen
state rather than using kvm->lock for it.

kvm->srcu is taken in KVM_RUN and several other vCPU ioctls, therefore
vcpu->mutex is susceptible to the same deadlock that is documented
for kvm->slots_lock. The same holds for kvm->lock, since kvm->lock
is held outside vcpu->mutex. Fix the documentation and rearrange it
to highlight the difference between these locks and kvm->slots_arch_lock,
and how kvm->slots_arch_lock can be useful while processing a vmexit.
