vmstat_shepherd uses delayed_work_pending() to check whether vmstat_update
is already scheduled for a given CPU before queuing it. However,
delayed_work_pending() only tests WORK_STRUCT_PENDING_BIT, which is
cleared the moment a worker thread picks up the work to execute it.
This means that while vmstat_update is actively running on a CPU,
delayed_work_pending() returns false. If need_update() also returns true
at that point (per-cpu counters not yet zeroed mid-flush), the shepherd
queues a second invocation with delay=0, causing vmstat_update to run
again immediately after finishing.
On a 72-CPU system this race is readily observable: before the fix, many
CPUs show invocation gaps well below 500 jiffies (the minimum
round_jiffies_relative() can produce), with the most extreme cases
reaching 0 jiffies—vmstat_update called twice within the same jiffy.
Fix this by replacing delayed_work_pending() with work_busy(), which
returns non-zero for both WORK_BUSY_PENDING (timer armed or work queued)
and WORK_BUSY_RUNNING (work currently executing). The shepherd now
correctly skips a CPU in all busy states.
After the fix, all sub-jiffy and most sub-100-jiffie gaps disappear. The
remaining early invocations have gaps in the 700–999 jiffie range,
attributable to round_jiffies_relative() aligning to a nearer
jiffie-second boundary rather than to this race.
Each spurious vmstat_update invocation has a measurable side effect:
refresh_cpu_vm_stats() calls decay_pcp_high() for every zone, which drains
idle per-CPU pages back to the buddy allocator via free_pcppages_bulk(),
taking the zone spinlock each time. Eliminating the double-scheduling
therefore reduces zone lock contention directly. On a 72-CPU stress-ng
workload measured with perf lock contention:
free_pcppages_bulk contention count: ~55% reduction
free_pcppages_bulk total wait time: ~57% reduction
free_pcppages_bulk max wait time: ~47% reduction
Note: work_busy() is inherently racy—between the check and the
subsequent queue_delayed_work_on() call, vmstat_update can finish
execution, leaving the work neither pending nor running. In that narrow
window the shepherd can still queue a second invocation. After the fix,
this residual race is rare and produces only occasional small gaps, a
significant improvement over the systematic double-scheduling seen with
delayed_work_pending().

While discussing memcg intergration with gpu memory allocations,
it was pointed out that there was no numa/system counters for
GPU memory allocations.
With more integrated memory GPU server systems turning up, and
more requirements for memory tracking it seems we should start
closing the gap.
Add two counters to track GPU per-node system memory allocations.
The first is currently allocated to GPU objects, and the second
is for memory that is stored in GPU page pools that can be reclaimed,
by the shrinker.

Use a vmstat counter instead of a custom, open-coded atomic. This has
the added benefit of making the data available per-node, and prepares
for cleaning up the memcg accounting as well.

There are situations where reclaim kicks in on a system with free memory.
One possible cause is a NUMA imbalance scenario where one or more nodes
are under pressure. It would help if we could easily identify such nodes.
Move the pgscan, pgsteal, and pgrefill counters from vm_event_item to
node_stat_item to provide per-node reclaim visibility. With these
counters as node stats, the values are now displayed in the per-node
section of /proc/zoneinfo, which allows for quick identification of the
affected nodes.
/proc/vmstat continues to report the same counters, aggregated across all
nodes. But the ordering of these items within the readout changes as they
move from the vm events section to the node stats section.
Memcg accounting of these counters is preserved. The relocated counters
remain visible in memory.stat alongside the existing aggregate pgscan and
pgsteal counters.
However, this change affects how the global counters are accumulated.
Previously, the global event count update was gated on !cgroup_reclaim(),
excluding memcg-based reclaim from /proc/vmstat. Now that
mod_lruvec_state() is being used to update the counters, the global
counters will include all reclaim. This is consistent with how pgdemote
counters are already tracked.
Finally, the virtio_balloon driver is updated to use
global_node_page_state() to fetch the counters, as they are no longer
accessible through the vm_events array.

The HK_TYPE_DOMAIN housekeeping cpumask is now modifiable at runtime.
In order to synchronize against vmstat workqueue to make sure
that no asynchronous vmstat work is still pending or executing on a
newly made isolated CPU, the housekeeping susbsystem must flush the
vmstat workqueues.
This involves flushing the whole mm_percpu_wq workqueue, shared with

The HK_TYPE_DOMAIN housekeeping cpumask will soon be made modifiable at
runtime. In order to synchronize against vmstat workqueue to make sure
that no asynchronous vmstat work is pending or executing on a newly made
isolated CPU, target and queue a vmstat work under the same RCU read
side critical section.
Whenever housekeeping will update the HK_TYPE_DOMAIN cpumask, a vmstat
workqueue flush will also be issued in a further change to make sure
that no work remains pending after a CPU has been made isolated.

This continues the effort to refactor workqueue APIs, which began with the
introduction of new workqueues and a new alloc_workqueue flag in:
commit 128ea9f6ccfb ("workqueue: Add system_percpu_wq and system_dfl_wq")
commit 930c2ea566af ("workqueue: Add new WQ_PERCPU flag")
The refactoring is going to alter the default behavior of
alloc_workqueue() to be unbound by default.
With the introduction of the WQ_PERCPU flag (equivalent to !WQ_UNBOUND),
any alloc_workqueue() caller that doesn't explicitly specify WQ_UNBOUND
must now use WQ_PERCPU. For more details see the Link tag below.
In order to keep alloc_workqueue() behavior identical, explicitly request
WQ_PERCPU.

Currently, kswapd_failures is reset in multiple places (kswapd, direct
reclaim, PCP freeing, memory-tiers), but there's no way to trace when and
why it was reset, making it difficult to debug memory reclaim issues.
This patch:
1. Introduce kswapd_clear_hopeless() as a wrapper function to
centralize kswapd_failures reset logic.
2. Introduce kswapd_test_hopeless() to encapsulate hopeless node
checks, replacing all open-coded kswapd_failures comparisons.
3. Add kswapd_clear_hopeless_reason enum to distinguish reset sources:
- KSWAPD_CLEAR_HOPELESS_KSWAPD: reset from kswapd context
- KSWAPD_CLEAR_HOPELESS_DIRECT: reset from direct reclaim
- KSWAPD_CLEAR_HOPELESS_PCP: reset from PCP page freeing
- KSWAPD_CLEAR_HOPELESS_OTHER: reset from other paths
4. Add tracepoints for better observability:
- mm_vmscan_kswapd_clear_hopeless: traces each reset with reason
- mm_vmscan_kswapd_reclaim_fail: traces each kswapd reclaim failure
Test results:
$ trace-cmd record -e vmscan:mm_vmscan_kswapd_clear_hopeless -e vmscan:mm_vmscan_kswapd_reclaim_fail
$ # generate memory pressure
$ trace-cmd report

While compaction depends on migration, the other direction is not the
case. So let's make it clearer that this is all about migration of
balloon pages.
Adjust all comments/docs in the core to talk about "migration" instead of
"compaction".
While at it add some "/* CONFIG_BALLOON_MIGRATION */".

Patch series "mm/page_alloc: Batch callers of free_pcppages_bulk", v5.
Motivation & Approach
=====================
While testing workloads with high sustained memory pressure on large
machines in the Meta fleet (1Tb memory, 316 CPUs), we saw an unexpectedly
high number of softlockups. Further investigation showed that the zone
lock in free_pcppages_bulk was being held for a long time, and was called
to free 2k+ pages over 100 times just during boot.
This causes starvation in other processes for the zone lock, which can
lead to the system stalling as multiple threads cannot make progress
without the locks. We can see these issues manifesting as warnings:
[ 4512.591979] rcu: INFO: rcu_sched self-detected stall on CPU
[ 4512.604370] rcu: 20-....: (9312 ticks this GP) idle=a654/1/0x4000000000000000 softirq=309340/309344 fqs=5426
[ 4512.626401] rcu: hardirqs softirqs csw/system
[ 4512.638793] rcu: number: 0 145 0
[ 4512.651177] rcu: cputime: 30 10410 174 ==> 10558(ms)
[ 4512.666657] rcu: (t=21077 jiffies g=783665 q=1242213 ncpus=316)
While these warnings don't indicate a crash or a kernel panic, they do
point to the underlying issue of lock contention. To prevent starvation
in both locks, batch the freeing of pages using pcp->batch.
Because free_pcppages_bulk is called with the pcp lock and acquires the
zone lock, relinquishing and reacquiring the locks are only effective when
both of them are broken together (unless the system was built with queued
spinlocks). Thus, instead of modifying free_pcppages_bulk to break both
locks, batch the freeing from its callers instead.
A similar fix has been implemented in the Meta fleet, and we have seen
significantly less softlockups.
Testing
=======
The following are a few synthetic benchmarks, made on three machines. The
first is a large machine with 754GiB memory and 316 processors.
The second is a relatively smaller machine with 251GiB memory and 176
processors. The third and final is the smallest of the three, which has 62GiB
memory and 36 processors.
On all machines, I kick off a kernel build with -j$(nproc).
Negative delta is better (faster compilation).
Large machine (754GiB memory, 316 processors)
make -j$(nproc)
+------------+---------------+-----------+
| Metric (s) | Variation (%) | Delta(%) |
+------------+---------------+-----------+
| real | 0.8070 | - 1.4865 |
| user | 0.2823 | + 0.4081 |
| sys | 5.0267 | -11.8737 |
+------------+---------------+-----------+
Medium machine (251GiB memory, 176 processors)
make -j$(nproc)
+------------+---------------+----------+
| Metric (s) | Variation (%) | Delta(%) |
+------------+---------------+----------+
| real | 0.2806 | +0.0351 |
| user | 0.0994 | +0.3170 |
| sys | 0.6229 | -0.6277 |
+------------+---------------+----------+
Small machine (62GiB memory, 36 processors)
make -j$(nproc)
+------------+---------------+----------+
| Metric (s) | Variation (%) | Delta(%) |
+------------+---------------+----------+
| real | 0.1503 | -2.6585 |
| user | 0.0431 | -2.2984 |
| sys | 0.1870 | -3.2013 |
+------------+---------------+----------+
Here, variation is the coefficient of variation, i.e. standard deviation
/ mean.
Based on these results, it seems like there are varying degrees to how
much lock contention this reduces. For the largest and smallest machines
that I ran the tests on, it seems like there is quite some significant
reduction. There is also some performance increases visible from
userspace.
Interestingly, the performance gains don't scale with the size of the
machine, but rather there seems to be a dip in the gain there is for the
medium-sized machine. One possible theory is that because the high
watermark depends on both memory and the number of local CPUs, what
impacts zone contention the most is not these individual values, but
rather the ratio of mem:processors.
This patch (of 5):
Currently, refresh_cpu_vm_stats returns an int, indicating how many
changes were made during its updates. Using this information, callers
like vmstat_update can heuristically determine if more work will be done
in the future.
However, all of refresh_cpu_vm_stats's callers either (a) ignore the
result, only caring about performing the updates, or (b) only care about
whether changes were made, but not *how many* changes were made.
Simplify the code by returning a bool instead to indicate if updates

If kswapd fails to reclaim pages from a node MAX_RECLAIM_RETRIES in a
row, kswapd on that node gets disabled. That is, the system won't wakeup
kswapd for that node until page reclamation is observed at least once.
That reclamation is mostly done by direct reclaim, which in turn enables
kswapd back.
However, on systems with CXL memory nodes, workloads with high anon page
usage can disable kswapd indefinitely, without triggering direct
reclaim. This can be reproduced with following steps:
numa node 0 (32GB memory, 48 CPUs)
numa node 2~5 (512GB CXL memory, 128GB each)
(numa node 1 is disabled)
swap space 8GB
1) Set /sys/kernel/mm/demotion_enabled to 0.
2) Set /proc/sys/kernel/numa_balancing to 0.
3) Run a process that allocates and random accesses 500GB of anon
pages.
4) Let the process exit normally.
During 3), free memory on node 0 gets lower than low watermark, and
kswapd runs and depletes swap space. Then, kswapd fails consecutively
and gets disabled. Allocation afterwards happens on CXL memory, so node
0 never gains more memory pressure to trigger direct reclaim.
After 4), kswapd on node 0 remains disabled, and tasks running on that
node are unable to swap. If you turn on NUMA_BALANCING_MEMORY_TIERING
and demotion now, it won't work properly since kswapd is disabled.
To mitigate this problem, reset kswapd_failures to 0 on following
conditions:
a) ZONE_BELOW_HIGH bit of a zone in hopeless node with a fallback
memory node gets cleared.
b) demotion_enabled is changed from false to true.
Rationale for a):
ZONE_BELOW_HIGH bit being cleared might be a sign that the node may
be reclaimable afterwards. This won't help much if the memory-hungry
process keeps running without freeing anything, but at least the node
will go back to reclaimable state when the process exits.
Rationale for b):
When demotion_enabled is false, kswapd can only reclaim anon pages by
swapping them out to swap space. If demotion_enabled is turned on,
kswapd can demote anon pages to another node for reclaiming. So, the
original failure count for determining reclaimability is no longer
valid.
Since kswapd_failures resets may be missed by ++ operation, it is
changed from int to atomic_t.

Kernel file pages are tricky to track because they are indistinguishable
from files whose usage is accounted to the root cgroup.
To maintain good accounting, introduce a vmstat counter tracking kernel
file pages.
Confirmed that these work as expected at a high level by mounting a btrfs
using AS_KERNEL_FILE for metadata pages, and seeing the counter rise with
fs usage then go back to a minimal level after drop_caches and finally
down to 0 after unmounting the fs.

Goto-san reported confusing pgpromote statistics where the
pgpromote_success count significantly exceeded pgpromote_candidate.
On a system with three nodes (nodes 0-1: DRAM 4GB, node 2: NVDIMM 4GB):
# Enable demotion only
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/mm/numa/demotion_enabled
numactl -m 0-1 memhog -r200 3500M >/dev/null &
pid=$!
sleep 2
numactl memhog -r100 2500M >/dev/null &
sleep 10
kill -9 $pid # terminate the 1st memhog
# Enable promotion
echo 2 > /proc/sys/kernel/numa_balancing
After a few seconds, we observeed `pgpromote_candidate < pgpromote_success`
$ grep -e pgpromote /proc/vmstat
pgpromote_success 2579
pgpromote_candidate 0
In this scenario, after terminating the first memhog, the conditions for
pgdat_free_space_enough() are quickly met, and triggers promotion.
However, these migrated pages are only counted for in PGPROMOTE_SUCCESS,
not in PGPROMOTE_CANDIDATE.
To solve these confusing statistics, introduce PGPROMOTE_CANDIDATE_NRL to
count the missed promotion pages. And also, not counting these pages into
PGPROMOTE_CANDIDATE is to avoid changing the existing algorithm or
performance of the promotion rate limit.

The only user of the counter (FUSE) was removed in commit 0c58a97f919c
("fuse: remove tmp folio for writebacks and internal rb tree") so follow
the established pattern of removing the counter and hardcoding 0 in
meminfo output, as done recently with NR_BOUNCE. Update documentation for
procfs, including for the value for Bounce that was missed when removing
its counter.
Also remove the mention of NR_WRITEBACK_TEMP implications from a comment
in wb_position_ratio(). The rest of the comment there about fuse setting
bdi->max_ratio to 1% is still correct.

The vmstat_text array defines labels for counters displayed in
/proc/vmstat. The current definition of the array implies a specific
order of the counters in their enums, making it fragile.
To make it clear which counter the label is for, use designated
initializers.

/proc/vmstat displays counters from various sources. It is easy to forget
to add or remove a label when a new counter is added or removed.
There is a BUILD_BUG_ON() function that catches missing labels. However,
for some reason, it ignores extra labels.
Let's make the check strict. This would help to catch issues when a
counter is removed.

The vmstat_text array contains labels for counters displayed in
/proc/vmstat. It is important to keep the labels in sync with the
counters.
There is a BUILD_BUG_ON() check in vmstat_start() that ensures the size of
the vmstat_text is not smaller than VM_EVENT_COUNTERS. This helps to
catch cases where a new counter is added but the label is not. However,
it does not help if a counter is removed but the label remains.
It would be nice to make the BUILD_BUG_ON() check more strict to catch
such cases. However, when compiling with MEMCG enabled but
VM_EVENT_COUNTERS disabled, the vmstat_text array is larger than
NR_VMSTAT_ITEMS.
This issue arises because some elements of the vmstat_text array are
present when either MEMCG or VM_EVENT_COUNTERS is enabled, but
NR_VMSTAT_ITEMS only accounts for these elements if VM_EVENT_COUNTERS is
enabled.
Instead of adjusting the NR_VMSTAT_ITEMS definition to account for MEMCG,
make MEMCG select VM_EVENT_COUNTERS. VM_EVENT_COUNTERS is enabled in most
configurations anyway.

This reverts commit ad6b26b6a0a79166b53209df2ca1cf8636296382.
This commit introduces per-memcg/task NUMA balance statistics, but
unfortunately it introduced a NULL pointer exception due to the following
race condition: After a swap task candidate was chosen, its mm_struct
pointer was set to NULL due to task exit. Later, when performing the
actual task swapping, the p->mm caused the problem.
CPU0 CPU1
:
...
task_numa_migrate
task_numa_find_cpu
task_numa_compare
# a normal task p is chosen
env->best_task = p
# p exit:
exit_signals(p);
p->flags |= PF_EXITING
exit_mm
p->mm = NULL;
migrate_swap_stop
__migrate_swap_task((arg->src_task, arg->dst_cpu)
count_memcg_event_mm(p->mm, NUMA_TASK_SWAP)# p->mm is NULL
task_lock() should be held and the PF_EXITING flag needs to be checked to
prevent this from happening. After discussion, the conclusion was that
adding a lock is not worthwhile for some statistics calculations. Revert
the change and rely on the tracepoint for this purpose.

Hongyu noticed that the nr_unaccepted counter kept growing even in the
absence of unaccepted memory on the machine.
This happens due to a commit that removed NR_BOUNCE: it removed the
counter from the enum zone_stat_item, but left it in the vmstat_text
array.
As a result, all counters below nr_bounce in /proc/vmstat are shifted by
one line, causing the numa_hit counter to be labeled as nr_unaccepted.
To fix this issue, remove nr_bounce from the vmstat_text array.

On systems with NUMA balancing enabled, it has been found that tracking
task activities resulting from NUMA balancing is beneficial. NUMA
balancing employs two mechanisms for task migration: one is to migrate
a task to an idle CPU within its preferred node, and the other is to
swap tasks located on different nodes when they are on each other's
preferred nodes.
The kernel already provides NUMA page migration statistics in
/sys/fs/cgroup/mytest/memory.stat and /proc/{PID}/sched. However, it
lacks statistics regarding task migration and swapping. Therefore,
relevant counts for task migration and swapping should be added.
The following two new fields:
numa_task_migrated
numa_task_swapped
will be shown in /sys/fs/cgroup/{GROUP}/memory.stat, /proc/{PID}/sched
and /proc/vmstat.
Introducing both per-task and per-memory cgroup (memcg) NUMA balancing
statistics facilitates a rapid evaluation of the performance and
resource utilization of the target workload. For instance, users can
first identify the container with high NUMA balancing activity and then
further pinpoint a specific task within that group, and subsequently
adjust the memory policy for that task. In short, although it is
possible to iterate through /proc/$pid/sched to locate the problematic
task, the introduction of aggregated NUMA balancing activity for tasks
within each memcg can assist users in identifying the task more
efficiently through a divide-and-conquer approach.
As Libo Chen pointed out, the memcg event relies on the text names in
vmstat_text, and /proc/vmstat generates corresponding items based on
vmstat_text. Thus, the relevant task migration and swapping events
introduced in vmstat_text also need to be populated by
count_vm_numa_event(), otherwise these values are zero in /proc/vmstat.
In theory, task migration and swap events are part of the scheduler's
activities. The reason for exposing them through the
memory.stat/vmstat interface is that we already have NUMA balancing
statistics in memory.stat/vmstat, and these events are closely related
to each other. Following Shakeel's suggestion, we describe the
end-to-end flow/story of all these events occurring on a timeline for
future reference:
The goal of NUMA balancing is to co-locate a task and its memory pages
on the same NUMA node. There are two strategies: migrate the pages to
the task's node, or migrate the task to the node where its pages
reside.
Suppose a task p1 is running on Node 0, but its pages are located on
Node 1. NUMA page fault statistics for p1 reveal its "page footprint"
across nodes. If NUMA balancing detects that most of p1's pages are on
Node 1:
1.Page Migration Attempt:
The Numa balance first tries to migrate p1's pages to Node 0.
The numa_page_migrate counter increments.
2.Task Migration Strategies:
After the page migration finishes, Numa balance checks every
1 second to see if p1 can be migrated to Node 1.
Case 2.1: Idle CPU Available
If Node 1 has an idle CPU, p1 is directly scheduled there. This
event is logged as numa_task_migrated.
Case 2.2: No Idle CPU (Task Swap)
If all CPUs on Node1 are busy, direct migration could cause CPU
contention or load imbalance. Instead: The Numa balance selects a
candidate task p2 on Node 1 that prefers Node 0 (e.g., due to its own
page footprint). p1 and p2 are swapped. This cross-node swap is
recorded as numa_task_swapped.

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

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

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sysctl/sysctl
Pull sysctl updates from Joel Granados:
- Move vm_table members out of kernel/sysctl.c
All vm_table array members have moved to their respective subsystems
leading to the removal of vm_table from kernel/sysctl.c. This
increases modularity by placing the ctl_tables closer to where they
are actually used and at the same time reducing the chances of merge
conflicts in kernel/sysctl.c.
- ctl_table range fixes
Replace the proc_handler function that checks variable ranges in
coredump_sysctls and vdso_table with the one that actually uses the
extra{1,2} pointers as min/max values. This tightens the range of the
values that users can pass into the kernel effectively preventing
{under,over}flows.

Patch series "Adding Proactive Memory Reclaim Statistics".
These two patches are related to proactive memory reclaim.
Patch 1 Split proactive reclaim statistics from direct reclaim counters
and introduces new counters: pgsteal_proactive, pgdemote_proactive,
and pgscan_proactive.
Patch 2 Adds pswpin and pswpout items to the cgroup-v2 documentation.
This patch (of 2):
In proactive memory reclaim scenarios, it is necessary to accurately track
proactive reclaim statistics to dynamically adjust the frequency and
amount of memory being reclaimed proactively. Currently, proactive
reclaim is included in direct reclaim statistics, which can make these
direct reclaim statistics misleading.
Therefore, separate proactive reclaim memory from the direct reclaim
counters by introducing new counters: pgsteal_proactive,
pgdemote_proactive, and pgscan_proactive, to avoid confusion with direct
reclaim.

Patch series "track memory used by balloon drivers", v2.
This series introduces a way to track memory used by balloon drivers.
Add a NR_BALLOON_PAGES counter to track how many pages are reclaimed by
the balloon drivers. First add the accounting, then updates the balloon
drivers (virtio, Hyper-V, VMware, Pseries-cmm, and Xen) to maintain this
counter. The virtio, Vmware, and pseries-cmm balloon drivers utilize the
balloon_compaction interface to allocate and free balloon pages. Other
balloon drivers will have to maintain this counter manually.
This makes the information visible in memory reporting interfaces like
/proc/meminfo, show_mem, and OOM reporting.
This provides admins visibility into their VM balloon sizes without
requiring different virtualization tooling. Furthermore, this information
is helpful when debugging an OOM inside a VM.
This patch (of 4):
Add NR_BALLOON_PAGES counter to track memory used by balloon drivers and
expose it through /proc/meminfo and other memory reporting interfaces.

The previous patch added pageblock_order reclaim to kswapd/kcompactd,
which helps, but produces only one block at a time. Allocation stalls and
THP failure rates are still higher than they could be.
To adequately reflect ALLOC_NOFRAGMENT demand for pageblocks, change the
watermarking for kswapd & kcompactd: instead of targeting the high
watermark in order-0 pages and checking for one suitable block, simply
require that the high watermark is entirely met in pageblocks.
To this end, track the number of free pages within contiguous pageblocks,
then change pgdat_balanced() and compact_finished() to check watermarks
against this new value.
This further reduces THP latencies and allocation stalls, and improves THP
success rates against the previous patch:

Also of note is that compaction work overall is reduced. The reason for
this is that when free pageblocks are more readily available, allocations
are also much more likely to get physically placed in LRU order, instead
of being forced to scavenge free space here and there. This means that
reclaim by itself has better chances of freeing up whole blocks, and the
system relies less on compaction.

THP allocation latencies and %sys time are down dramatically.
THP allocation failures are down from nearly 50% to 8.5%. And to recall
previous data points, the success rates are steady and reliable without
the cumulative deterioration of fragmentation events.
Compaction work is down overall. Direct compaction work especially is
drastically reduced. As an aside, its success rate of 4% indicates there
is room for improvement. For now it's good to rely on it less.
Reclaim work is up overall, however direct reclaim work is down. Part of
the increase can be attributed to a higher use of THPs, which due to
internal fragmentation increase the memory footprint. This is not
necessarily an unexpected side-effect for users of THP.
However, taken both points together, there may well be some opportunities
for fine tuning in the reclaim/compaction coordination.

Change of attributes of the pages may lead to fragmentation of direct
mapping over time and performance degradation when these pages contain
executable code.
With current code it's one way road: kernel tries to avoid splitting
large pages, but it doesn't restore them back even if page attributes
got compatible again.
Any change to the mapping may potentially allow to restore large page.
Add a hook to cpa_flush() path that will check if the pages in the range
that were just touched can be mapped at PMD level. If the collapse at the
PMD level succeeded, also attempt to collapse PUD level.
The collapse logic runs only when a set_memory_ method explicitly sets
CPA_COLLAPSE flag, for now this is only enabled in set_memory_rox().
CPUs don't like[1] to have to have TLB entries of different size for the
same memory, but looks like it's okay as long as these entries have
matching attributes[2]. Therefore it's critical to flush TLB before any
following changes to the mapping.
Note that we already allow for multiple TLB entries of different sizes
for the same memory now in split_large_page() path. It's not a new
situation.
set_memory_4k() provides a way to use 4k pages on purpose. Kernel must
not remap such pages as large. Re-use one of software PTE bits to
indicate such pages.

The upstream commit adcfb264c3ed ("vmstat: disable vmstat_work on
vmstat_cpu_down_prep()") introduced another warning during the boot phase
so was soon reverted on upstream by commit cd6313beaeae ("Revert "vmstat:
disable vmstat_work on vmstat_cpu_down_prep()""). This commit resolves it
and reattempts the original fix.
Even after mm/vmstat:online teardown, shepherd may still queue work for
the dying cpu until the cpu is removed from online mask. While it's quite
rare, this means that after unbind_workers() unbinds a per-cpu kworker, it
potentially runs vmstat_update for the dying CPU on an irrelevant cpu
before entering atomic AP states. When CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT=y, it results
in the following error with the backtrace.
BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code: \

So, for mm/vmstat:online, disable vmstat_work reliably on teardown and
symmetrically enable it on startup.
For secondary CPUs during CPU hotplug scenarios, ensure the delayed work
is disabled immediately after the initialization. These CPUs are not yet
online when start_shepherd_timer() runs on boot CPU. vmstat_cpu_online()
will enable the work for them.

Even after mm/vmstat:online teardown, shepherd may still queue work for
the dying cpu until the cpu is removed from online mask. While it's quite
rare, this means that after unbind_workers() unbinds a per-cpu kworker, it
potentially runs vmstat_update for the dying CPU on an irrelevant cpu
before entering atomic AP states. When CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT=y, it results
in the following error with the backtrace.
BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code: \

This patch introduces a new counter to memory.stat that tracks hugeTLB
usage, only if hugeTLB accounting is done to memory.current. This feature
is enabled the same way hugeTLB accounting is enabled, via the
memory_hugetlb_accounting mount flag for cgroupsv2.
1. Why is this patch necessary?
Currently, memcg hugeTLB accounting is an opt-in feature [1] that adds
hugeTLB usage to memory.current. However, the metric is not reported in
memory.stat. Given that users often interpret memory.stat as a breakdown
of the value reported in memory.current, the disparity between the two
reports can be confusing. This patch solves this problem by including the
metric in memory.stat as well, but only if it is also reported in
memory.current (it would also be confusing if the value was reported in
memory.stat, but not in memory.current)
Aside from the consistency between the two files, we also see benefits in
observability. Userspace might be interested in the hugeTLB footprint of
cgroups for many reasons. For instance, system admins might want to
verify that hugeTLB usage is distributed as expected across tasks: i.e.
memory-intensive tasks are using more hugeTLB pages than tasks that don't
consume a lot of memory, or are seen to fault frequently. Note that this
is separate from wanting to inspect the distribution for limiting purposes
(in which case, hugeTLB controller makes more sense).
2. We already have a hugeTLB controller. Why not use that?
It is true that hugeTLB tracks the exact value that we want. In fact, by
enabling the hugeTLB controller, we get all of the observability benefits
that I mentioned above, and users can check the total hugeTLB usage,
verify if it is distributed as expected, etc.
With this said, there are 2 problems:
(a) They are still not reported in memory.stat, which means the
disparity between the memcg reports are still there.
(b) We cannot reasonably expect users to enable the hugeTLB controller
just for the sake of hugeTLB usage reporting, especially since
they don't have any use for hugeTLB usage enforcing [2].
3. Implementation Details:
In the alloc / free hugetlb functions, we call lruvec_stat_mod_folio
regardless of whether memcg accounts hugetlb. mem_cgroup_commit_charge
which is called from alloc_hugetlb_folio will set memcg for the folio only
if the CGRP_ROOT_MEMORY_HUGETLB_ACCOUNTING cgroup mount option is used, so
lruvec_stat_mod_folio accounts per-memcg hugetlb counters only if the
feature is enabled. Regardless of whether memcg accounts for hugetlb, the
newly added global counter is updated and shown in /proc/vmstat.
The global counter is added because vmstats is the preferred framework for
cgroup stats. It makes stat items consistent between global and cgroups.
It also provides a per-node breakdown, which is useful. Because it does
not use cgroup-specific hooks, we also keep generic MM code separate from
memcg code.
[1] https://lore.kernel.org/all/20231006184629.155543-1-nphamcs@gmail.com/
[2] Of course, we can't make a new patch for every feature that can be
duplicated. However, since the existing solution of enabling the
hugeTLB controller is an imperfect solution that still leaves a
discrepancy between memory.stat and memory.curent, I think that it
is reasonable to isolate the feature in this case.

Since 5.14-rc1, NUMA events will only be folded from per-CPU statistics to
per zone and global statistics when the user actually needs it.
Currently, the kernel has performs the fold operation when reading
/proc/vmstat, but does not perform the fold operation in /proc/zoneinfo.
This can lead to inaccuracies in the following statistics in zoneinfo:
- numa_hit
- numa_miss
- numa_foreign
- numa_interleave
- numa_local
- numa_other
Therefore, before printing per-zone vm_numa_event when reading
/proc/zoneinfo, we should also perform the fold operation.

Pick up e7ac4daeed91 ("mm: count zeromap read and set for swapout and

mm: zswap: zswap_store_page() will initialize entry after adding to xarray.
mm: add per-order mTHP swpin counters
from mm-unstable into mm-stable.
|

When the proportion of folios from the zeromap is small, missing their
accounting may not significantly impact profiling. However, it's easy to
construct a scenario where this becomes an issue—for example, allocating
1 GB of memory, writing zeros from userspace, followed by MADV_PAGEOUT,
and then swapping it back in. In this case, the swap-out and swap-in
counts seem to vanish into a black hole, potentially causing semantic
ambiguity.
On the other hand, Usama reported that zero-filled pages can exceed 10% in
workloads utilizing zswap, while Hailong noted that some app in Android
have more than 6% zero-filled pages. Before commit 0ca0c24e3211 ("mm:
store zero pages to be swapped out in a bitmap"), both zswap and zRAM
implemented similar optimizations, leading to these optimized-out pages
being counted in either zswap or zRAM counters (with pswpin/pswpout also
increasing for zRAM). With zeromap functioning prior to both zswap and
zRAM, userspace will no longer detect these swap-out and swap-in actions.
We have three ways to address this:
1. Introduce a dedicated counter specifically for the zeromap.
2. Use pswpin/pswpout accounting, treating the zero map as a standard
backend. This approach aligns with zRAM's current handling of
same-page fills at the device level. However, it would mean losing the
optimized-out page counters previously available in zRAM and would not
align with systems using zswap. Additionally, as noted by Nhat Pham,
pswpin/pswpout counters apply only to I/O done directly to the backend
device.
3. Count zeromap pages under zswap, aligning with system behavior when
zswap is enabled. However, this would not be consistent with zRAM, nor
would it align with systems lacking both zswap and zRAM.
Given the complications with options 2 and 3, this patch selects
option 1.
We can find these counters from /proc/vmstat (counters for the whole
system) and memcg's memory.stat (counters for the interested memcg).
For example:
$ grep -E 'swpin_zero|swpout_zero' /proc/vmstat
swpin_zero 1648
swpout_zero 33536
$ grep -E 'swpin_zero|swpout_zero' /sys/fs/cgroup/system.slice/memory.stat
swpin_zero 3905
swpout_zero 3985
This patch does not address any specific zeromap bug, but the missing
swpout and swpin counts for zero-filled pages can be highly confusing and
may mislead user-space agents that rely on changes in these counters as
indicators. Therefore, we add a Fixes tag to encourage the inclusion of
this counter in any kernel versions with zeromap.
Many thanks to Kanchana for the contribution of changing
count_objcg_event() to count_objcg_events() to support large folios[1],
which has now been incorporated into this patch.

refresh_zone_stat_thresholds function has two loops which is expensive for
higher number of CPUs and NUMA nodes.
Below is the rough estimation of total iterations done by these loops
based on number of NUMA and CPUs.
Total number of iterations: nCPU * 2 * Numa * mCPU
Where:
nCPU = total number of CPUs
Numa = total number of NUMA nodes
mCPU = mean value of total CPUs (e.g., 512 for 1024 total CPUs)
For the system under test with 16 NUMA nodes and 1024 CPUs, this results
in a substantial increase in the number of loop iterations during boot-up
when NUMA is enabled:
No NUMA = 1024*2*1*512 = 1,048,576 : Here refresh_zone_stat_thresholds
takes around 224 ms total for all the CPUs in the system under test.
16 NUMA = 1024*2*16*512 = 16,777,216 : Here refresh_zone_stat_thresholds
takes around 4.5 seconds total for all the CPUs in the system under test.
Calling this for each CPU is expensive when there are large number of CPUs
along with multiple NUMAs. Fix this by deferring
refresh_zone_stat_thresholds to be called later at once when all the
secondary CPUs are up. Also, register the DYN hooks to keep the existing
hotplug functionality intact.

When we do not set percpu_pagelist_high_fraction the kernel will compute
the pcp high_min/max by itself, which makes it hard to determine the
current high_min/max values.
So output the pcp high_min/max values to /proc/zoneinfo.

This is an attempt to mitigate the issue of running out of memory when THP
is always enabled. During runtime whenever a THP is being faulted in
(__do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page) or collapsed by khugepaged
(collapse_huge_page), the THP is added to _deferred_list. Whenever memory
reclaim happens in linux, the kernel runs the deferred_split shrinker
which goes through the _deferred_list.
If the folio was partially mapped, the shrinker attempts to split it. If
the folio is not partially mapped, the shrinker checks if the THP was
underused, i.e. how many of the base 4K pages of the entire THP were
zero-filled. If this number goes above a certain threshold (decided by
/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/khugepaged/max_ptes_none), the
shrinker will attempt to split that THP. Then at remap time, the pages
that were zero-filled are mapped to the shared zeropage, hence saving
memory.

As part of the dynamic kernel stack project, we need to know the amount of
data that can be saved by reducing the default kernel stack size [1].
Provide a kernel stack usage histogram to aid in optimizing kernel stack
sizes and minimizing memory waste in large-scale environments. The
histogram divides stack usage into power-of-two buckets and reports the
results in /proc/vmstat. This information is especially valuable in
environments with millions of machines, where even small optimizations can
have a significant impact.
The histogram data is presented in /proc/vmstat with entries like
"kstack_1k", "kstack_2k", and so on, indicating the number of threads that
exited with stack usage falling within each respective bucket.
Example outputs:
Intel:
$ grep kstack /proc/vmstat
kstack_1k 3
kstack_2k 188
kstack_4k 11391
kstack_8k 243
kstack_16k 0
ARM with 64K page_size:
$ grep kstack /proc/vmstat
kstack_1k 1
kstack_2k 340
kstack_4k 25212
kstack_8k 1659
kstack_16k 0
kstack_32k 0
kstack_64k 0
Note: once the dynamic kernel stack is implemented it will depend on the
implementation the usability of this feature: On hardware that supports
faults on kernel stacks, we will have other metrics that show the total
number of pages allocated for stacks. On hardware where faults are not
supported, we will most likely have some optimization where only some
threads are extended, and for those, these metrics will still be very
useful.
