mm: pgtable: remove tlb_remove_page_ptdesc()

2025-04-01T22:17:14Z

The tlb_remove_ptdesc()/tlb_remove_table() is specially designed for page table pages, and now all architectures have been converted to use it to remove page table pages. So let's remove tlb_remove_page_ptdesc(), it currently has no users and should not be used for page table pages.

mm: pgtable: change pt parameter of tlb_remove_ptdesc() to struct ptdesc*

2025-04-01T22:17:13Z

All callers of tlb_remove_ptdesc() pass it a pointer of struct ptdesc, so let's change the pt parameter from void * to struct ptdesc * to perform a type safety check.

mm: pgtable: make generic tlb_remove_table() use struct ptdesc

2025-04-01T22:17:13Z

Patch series "remove tlb_remove_page_ptdesc()", v2. As suggested by Peter Zijlstra below [1], this series aims to remove tlb_remove_page_ptdesc(). : Fundamentally tlb_remove_page() is about removing *pages* as from a PTE, : there should not be a page-table anywhere near here *ever*. : : Yes, some architectures use tlb_remove_page() for page-tables too, but : that is more or less an implementation detail that can be fixed. After this series, all architectures use tlb_remove_table() or tlb_remove_ptdesc() to remove the page table pages. In the future, once all architectures using tlb_remove_table() have also converted to using struct ptdesc (eg. powerpc), it may be possible to use only tlb_remove_ptdesc(). [1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20250103111457.GC22934@noisy.programming.kicks-ass.net/ This patch (of 6): Now only arm will call tlb_remove_ptdesc()/tlb_remove_table() when CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_TABLE_FREE is disabled. In this case, the type of the table parameter is actually struct ptdesc * instead of struct page *. Since struct ptdesc still overlaps with struct page and has not been separated from it, forcing the table parameter to struct page * will not cause any problems at this time. But this is definitely incorrect and needs to be fixed. So just like the generic __tlb_remove_table(), let generic tlb_remove_table() use struct ptdesc by default when CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_TABLE_FREE is disabled.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton: - The series "Enable strict percpu address space checks" from Uros Bizjak uses x86 named address space qualifiers to provide compile-time checking of percpu area accesses. This has caused a small amount of fallout - two or three issues were reported. In all cases the calling code was found to be incorrect. - The series "Some cleanup for memcg" from Chen Ridong implements some relatively monir cleanups for the memcontrol code. - The series "mm: fixes for device-exclusive entries (hmm)" from David Hildenbrand fixes a boatload of issues which David found then using device-exclusive PTE entries when THP is enabled. More work is needed, but this makes thins better - our own HMM selftests now succeed. - The series "mm: zswap: remove z3fold and zbud" from Yosry Ahmed remove the z3fold and zbud implementations. They have been deprecated for half a year and nobody has complained. - The series "mm: further simplify VMA merge operation" from Lorenzo Stoakes implements numerous simplifications in this area. No runtime effects are anticipated. - The series "mm/madvise: remove redundant mmap_lock operations from process_madvise()" from SeongJae Park rationalizes the locking in the madvise() implementation. Performance gains of 20-25% were observed in one MADV_DONTNEED microbenchmark. - The series "Tiny cleanup and improvements about SWAP code" from Baoquan He contains a number of touchups to issues which Baoquan noticed when working on the swap code. - The series "mm: kmemleak: Usability improvements" from Catalin Marinas implements a couple of improvements to the kmemleak user-visible output. - The series "mm/damon/paddr: fix large folios access and schemes handling" from Usama Arif provides a couple of fixes for DAMON's handling of large folios. - The series "mm/damon/core: fix wrong and/or useless damos_walk() behaviors" from SeongJae Park fixes a few issues with the accuracy of kdamond's walking of DAMON regions. - The series "expose mapping wrprotect, fix fb_defio use" from Lorenzo Stoakes changes the interaction between framebuffer deferred-io and core MM. No functional changes are anticipated - this is preparatory work for the future removal of page structure fields. - The series "mm/damon: add support for hugepage_size DAMOS filter" from Usama Arif adds a DAMOS filter which permits the filtering by huge page sizes. - The series "mm: permit guard regions for file-backed/shmem mappings" from Lorenzo Stoakes extends the guard region feature from its present "anon mappings only" state. The feature now covers shmem and file-backed mappings. - The series "mm: batched unmap lazyfree large folios during reclamation" from Barry Song cleans up and speeds up the unmapping for pte-mapped large folios. - The series "reimplement per-vma lock as a refcount" from Suren Baghdasaryan puts the vm_lock back into the vma. Our reasons for pulling it out were largely bogus and that change made the code more messy. This patchset provides small (0-10%) improvements on one microbenchmark. - The series "Docs/mm/damon: misc DAMOS filters documentation fixes and improves" from SeongJae Park does some maintenance work on the DAMON docs. - The series "hugetlb/CMA improvements for large systems" from Frank van der Linden addresses a pile of issues which have been observed when using CMA on large machines. - The series "mm/damon: introduce DAMOS filter type for unmapped pages" from SeongJae Park enables users of DMAON/DAMOS to filter my the page's mapped/unmapped status. - The series "zsmalloc/zram: there be preemption" from Sergey Senozhatsky teaches zram to run its compression and decompression operations preemptibly. - The series "selftests/mm: Some cleanups from trying to run them" from Brendan Jackman fixes a pile of unrelated issues which Brendan encountered while runnimg our selftests. - The series "fs/proc/task_mmu: add guard region bit to pagemap" from Lorenzo Stoakes permits userspace to use /proc/pid/pagemap to determine whether a particular page is a guard page. - The series "mm, swap: remove swap slot cache" from Kairui Song removes the swap slot cache from the allocation path - it simply wasn't being effective. - The series "mm: cleanups for device-exclusive entries (hmm)" from David Hildenbrand implements a number of unrelated cleanups in this code. - The series "mm: Rework generic PTDUMP configs" from Anshuman Khandual implements a number of preparatoty cleanups to the GENERIC_PTDUMP Kconfig logic. - The series "mm/damon: auto-tune aggregation interval" from SeongJae Park implements a feedback-driven automatic tuning feature for DAMON's aggregation interval tuning. - The series "Fix lazy mmu mode" from Ryan Roberts fixes some issues in powerpc, sparc and x86 lazy MMU implementations. Ryan did this in preparation for implementing lazy mmu mode for arm64 to optimize vmalloc. - The series "mm/page_alloc: Some clarifications for migratetype fallback" from Brendan Jackman reworks some commentary to make the code easier to follow. - The series "page_counter cleanup and size reduction" from Shakeel Butt cleans up the page_counter code and fixes a size increase which we accidentally added late last year. - The series "Add a command line option that enables control of how many threads should be used to allocate huge pages" from Thomas Prescher does that. It allows the careful operator to significantly reduce boot time by tuning the parallalization of huge page initialization. - The series "Fix calculations in trace_balance_dirty_pages() for cgwb" from Tang Yizhou fixes the tracing output from the dirty page balancing code. - The series "mm/damon: make allow filters after reject filters useful and intuitive" from SeongJae Park improves the handling of allow and reject filters. Behaviour is made more consistent and the documention is updated accordingly. - The series "Switch zswap to object read/write APIs" from Yosry Ahmed updates zswap to the new object read/write APIs and thus permits the removal of some legacy code from zpool and zsmalloc. - The series "Some trivial cleanups for shmem" from Baolin Wang does as it claims. - The series "fs/dax: Fix ZONE_DEVICE page reference counts" from Alistair Popple regularizes the weird ZONE_DEVICE page refcount handling in DAX, permittig the removal of a number of special-case checks. - The series "refactor mremap and fix bug" from Lorenzo Stoakes is a preparatoty refactoring and cleanup of the mremap() code. - The series "mm: MM owner tracking for large folios (!hugetlb) + CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT" from David Hildenbrand reworks the manner in which we determine whether a large folio is known to be mapped exclusively into a single MM. - The series "mm/damon: add sysfs dirs for managing DAMOS filters based on handling layers" from SeongJae Park adds a couple of new sysfs directories to ease the management of DAMON/DAMOS filters. - The series "arch, mm: reduce code duplication in mem_init()" from Mike Rapoport consolidates many per-arch implementations of mem_init() into code generic code, where that is practical. - The series "mm/damon/sysfs: commit parameters online via damon_call()" from SeongJae Park continues the cleaning up of sysfs access to DAMON internal data. - The series "mm: page_ext: Introduce new iteration API" from Luiz Capitulino reworks the page_ext initialization to fix a boot-time crash which was observed with an unusual combination of compile and cmdline options. - The series "Buddy allocator like (or non-uniform) folio split" from Zi Yan reworks the code to split a folio into smaller folios. The main benefit is lessened memory consumption: fewer post-split folios are generated. - The series "Minimize xa_node allocation during xarry split" from Zi Yan reduces the number of xarray xa_nodes which are generated during an xarray split. - The series "drivers/base/memory: Two cleanups" from Gavin Shan performs some maintenance work on the drivers/base/memory code. - The series "Add tracepoints for lowmem reserves, watermarks and totalreserve_pages" from Martin Liu adds some more tracepoints to the page allocator code. - The series "mm/madvise: cleanup requests validations and classifications" from SeongJae Park cleans up some warts which SeongJae observed during his earlier madvise work. - The series "mm/hwpoison: Fix regressions in memory failure handling" from Shuai Xue addresses two quite serious regressions which Shuai has observed in the memory-failure implementation. - The series "mm: reliable huge page allocator" from Johannes Weiner makes huge page allocations cheaper and more reliable by reducing fragmentation. - The series "Minor memcg cleanups & prep for memdescs" from Matthew Wilcox is preparatory work for the future implementation of memdescs. - The series "track memory used by balloon drivers" from Nico Pache introduces a way to track memory used by our various balloon drivers. - The series "mm/damon: introduce DAMOS filter type for active pages" from Nhat Pham permits users to filter for active/inactive pages, separately for file and anon pages. - The series "Adding Proactive Memory Reclaim Statistics" from Hao Jia separates the proactive reclaim statistics from the direct reclaim statistics. - The series "mm/vmscan: don't try to reclaim hwpoison folio" from Jinjiang Tu fixes our handling of hwpoisoned pages within the reclaim code. * tag 'mm-stable-2025-03-30-16-52' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm: (431 commits) mm/page_alloc: remove unnecessary __maybe_unused in order_to_pindex() x86/mm: restore early initialization of high_memory for 32-bits mm/vmscan: don't try to reclaim hwpoison folio mm/hwpoison: introduce folio_contain_hwpoisoned_page() helper cgroup: docs: add pswpin and pswpout items in cgroup v2 doc mm: vmscan: split proactive reclaim statistics from direct reclaim statistics selftests/mm: speed up split_huge_page_test selftests/mm: uffd-unit-tests support for hugepages > 2M docs/mm/damon/design: document active DAMOS filter type mm/damon: implement a new DAMOS filter type for active pages fs/dax: don't disassociate zero page entries MM documentation: add "Unaccepted" meminfo entry selftests/mm: add commentary about 9pfs bugs fork: use __vmalloc_node() for stack allocation docs/mm: Physical Memory: Populate the "Zones" section xen: balloon: update the NR_BALLOON_PAGES state hv_balloon: update the NR_BALLOON_PAGES state balloon_compaction: update the NR_BALLOON_PAGES state meminfo: add a per node counter for balloon drivers mm: remove references to folio in __memcg_kmem_uncharge_page() ...

2025-03-30T20:06:27Z

Pull bpf relisient spinlock support from Alexei Starovoitov: "This patch set introduces Resilient Queued Spin Lock (or rqspinlock with res_spin_lock() and res_spin_unlock() APIs). This is a qspinlock variant which recovers the kernel from a stalled state when the lock acquisition path cannot make forward progress. This can occur when a lock acquisition attempt enters a deadlock situation (e.g. AA, or ABBA), or more generally, when the owner of the lock (which we’re trying to acquire) isn’t making forward progress. Deadlock detection is the main mechanism used to provide instant recovery, with the timeout mechanism acting as a final line of defense. Detection is triggered immediately when beginning the waiting loop of a lock slow path. Additionally, BPF programs attached to different parts of the kernel can introduce new control flow into the kernel, which increases the likelihood of deadlocks in code not written to handle reentrancy. There have been multiple syzbot reports surfacing deadlocks in internal kernel code due to the diverse ways in which BPF programs can be attached to different parts of the kernel. By switching the BPF subsystem’s lock usage to rqspinlock, all of these issues are mitigated at runtime. This spin lock implementation allows BPF maps to become safer and remove mechanisms that have fallen short in assuring safety when nesting programs in arbitrary ways in the same context or across different contexts. We run benchmarks that stress locking scalability and perform comparison against the baseline (qspinlock). For the rqspinlock case, we replace the default qspinlock with it in the kernel, such that all spin locks in the kernel use the rqspinlock slow path. As such, benchmarks that stress kernel spin locks end up exercising rqspinlock.

Merge patch series "riscv: Relocatable NOMMU kernels"

2025-03-26T22:56:49Z

Samuel Holland says: Currently, RISC-V NOMMU kernels are linked at CONFIG_PAGE_OFFSET, and since they are not relocatable, must be loaded at this address as well. CONFIG_PAGE_OFFSET is not a user-visible Kconfig option, so its value is not obvious, and users must patch the kernel source if they want to load it at a different address. Make NOMMU kernels more portable by making them relocatable by default. This allows a single kernel binary to work when loaded at any address. * b4-shazam-merge: riscv: Remove CONFIG_PAGE_OFFSET riscv: Support CONFIG_RELOCATABLE on riscv32 asm-generic: Always define Elf_Rel and Elf_Rela riscv: Support CONFIG_RELOCATABLE on NOMMU riscv: Allow NOMMU kernels to access all of RAM riscv: Remove duplicate CONFIG_PAGE_OFFSET definition Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20241026171441.3047904-1-samuel.holland@sifive.com Signed-off-by: Palmer Dabbelt

rwonce: fix crash by removing READ_ONCE() for unaligned read

2025-03-26T21:16:50Z

When arm64 is built with LTO, it upgrades READ_ONCE() to ldar / ldapr (load-acquire) to avoid issues that can be caused by the compiler optimizing away implicit address dependencies. Unlike plain loads, these load-acquire instructions actually require an aligned address. For now, fix it by removing the READ_ONCE() that the buggy commit introduced.
