49d921b471 mm: vmscan: correct nr_requested tracing in scan_folios
When enabling vmscan tracing, it is observed that nr_requested is always
4096, which is confusing.

        mm_vmscan_lru_isolate: classzone=3 order=0 nr_requested=4096 ...
        mm_vmscan_lru_isolate: classzone=3 order=0 nr_requested=4096 ...
        mm_vmscan_lru_isolate: classzone=3 order=0 nr_requested=4096 ...
        mm_vmscan_lru_isolate: classzone=3 order=0 nr_requested=4096 ...
        mm_vmscan_lru_isolate: classzone=3 order=0 nr_requested=4096 ...
        mm_vmscan_lru_isolate: classzone=3 order=0 nr_requested=4096 ...
        mm_vmscan_lru_isolate: classzone=3 order=0 nr_requested=4096 ...

This is because it prints MAX_LRU_BATCH, which is meaningless as it's a
constant.  To fix this, modify it to print capped valued.

5842bcbfc3 mm/huge_memory: replace can_split_folio() with direct refcount calculation
can_split_folio() is just a refcount comparison, making sure only the
split caller holds an extra pin.  Open code it with
folio_expected_ref_count() != folio_ref_count() - 1.  For the extra_pins
used by folio_ref_freeze(), add folio_cache_ref_count() to calculate it. 
Also replace folio_expected_ref_count() with folio_cache_ref_count() used
by folio_ref_unfreeze(), since they are returning the same values when a
folio is frozen and folio_cache_ref_count() does not have unnecessary
folio_mapcount() in its implementation.

3cf41edc20 mm/vmscan: skip increasing kswapd_failures when reclaim was boosted
We have a colocation cluster used for deploying both offline and online
services simultaneously.  In this environment, we encountered a
scenario where direct memory reclamation was triggered due to kswapd
not running.

1. When applications start up, rapidly consume memory, or experience
   network traffic bursts, the kernel reaches steal_suitable_fallback(),
   which sets watermark_boost and subsequently wakes kswapd.

2. In the core logic of kswapd thread (balance_pgdat()), when reclaim is
   triggered by watermark_boost, the maximum priority is 10. Higher
   priority values mean less aggressive LRU scanning, which can result in
   no pages being reclaimed during a single scan cycle:

   if (nr_boost_reclaim && sc.priority == DEF_PRIORITY - 2)
       raise_priority = false;

3. Additionally, many of our pods are configured with memory.low, which
   prevents memory reclamation in certain cgroups, further increasing the
   chance of failing to reclaim memory.

4. This eventually causes pgdat->kswapd_failures to continuously
   accumulate, exceeding MAX_RECLAIM_RETRIES, and consequently kswapd
   stops working.  At this point, the system's available memory is still
   significantly above the high watermark -- it's inappropriate for kswapd
   to stop under these conditions.

The final observable issue is that a brief period of rapid memory
allocation causes kswapd to stop running, ultimately triggering direct
reclaim and making the applications unresponsive.

This problem leading to direct memory reclamation has been a
long-standing issue in our production environment.  We initially held
the simple assumption that it was caused by applications allocating
memory too rapidly for kswapd to keep up with reclamation.  However,
after we began monitoring kswapd's runtime behavior, we discovered a
different pattern:

kswapd initially exhibits very aggressive activity even when there is
still considerable free memory, but it subsequently stops running
entirely, even as memory levels approach the low watermark.

In summary, both boosted watermarks and memory.low increase the
probability of kswapd operation failures.

This patch specifically addresses the scenario involving boosted
watermarks by not incrementing kswapd_failures when reclamation fails. 
A more general solution, potentially addressing memory.low or other
cases, requires further discussion.

fs: cosmetic fixes to lru handling
1. inode_bit_waitqueue() was somehow placed between __inode_add_lru() and
   inode_add_lru(). move it up
2. assert ->i_lock is held in __inode_add_lru instead of just claiming it is
   needed
3. s/__inode_add_lru/__inode_lru_list_add/ for consistency with itself
   (inode_lru_list_del()) and similar routines for sb and io list
   management
4. push list presence check into inode_lru_list_del(), just like sb and

4f8961b295 mm: vmscan: simplify the folio refcount check in pageout()
Since we no longer attempt to write back filesystem folios in pageout()
(they will be filtered out by the following check in pageout()), and only
tmpfs/shmem folios and anonymous swapcache folios can be written back, we
can remove the redundant folio_test_private() when checking the folio's
refcount, as tmpfs/shmem and swapcache folios do not use the PG_private
flag.

While we're at it, we can open-code the folio refcount check instead of
adding a simple helper that has only one user.

d94d9293a1 mm: vmscan: remove folio_test_private() check in pageout()
Patch series "some cleanups for pageout()", v2.

Since we no longer attempt to write back filesystem folios in pageout(),
and only tmpfs/shmem folios and anonymous swapcache folios can be written
back, we can remove the redundant folio_test_private() related logic to
simplify the logic of pageout(), as tmpfs/shmem and swapcache folios do
not use the PG_private flag.


This patch (of 2):

The folio_test_private() check in pageout() was introduced by commit
ce91b575332b ("orphaned pagecache memleak fix") in 2005 (checked from a
history tree[1]).  As the commit message mentioned, it was to address the
issue where reiserfs pagecache may be truncated while still pinned.  To
further explain, the truncation removes the page->mapping, but the page is
still listed in the VM queues because it still has buffers.

In 2008, commit a2b345642f530 ("Fix dirty page accounting leak with ext3
data=journal") seems to be dealing with a similar issue, where the page
becomes dirty after truncation, and it provides a very useful call stack:

truncate_complete_page()
      cancel_dirty_page() // PG_dirty cleared, decr. dirty pages
      do_invalidatepage()
        ext3_invalidatepage()
          journal_invalidatepage()
            journal_unmap_buffer()
              __dispose_buffer()
                __journal_unfile_buffer()
                  __journal_temp_unlink_buffer()
                    mark_buffer_dirty(); // PG_dirty set, incr. dirty pages

In this commit a2b345642f530, we forcefully clear the page's dirty flag
during truncation (in truncate_complete_page()).

Now it seems this was just a peculiar usage specific to reiserfs.  Maybe
reiserfs had some extra refcount on these pages, which caused them to pass
the is_page_cache_freeable() check.

With the fix provided by commit a2b345642f530 and reiserfs being removed
in 2024 by commit fb6f20ecb121 ("reiserfs: The last commit"), such a case
is unlikely to occur again.  So let's remove the redundant
folio_test_private() checks and related buffer_head release logic, and
just leave a warning here to catch such a bug.

nothing changed by that commit.  Swap table just moved the GFP to lower

Now this parameter is no longer used, just remove it.  No behavior change.

2f05435df9 mm: vmscan: simplify the logic for activating dirty file folios
After commit 6b0dfabb3555 ("fs: Remove aops->writepage"), we no longer
attempt to write back filesystem folios through reclaim.

However, in the shrink_folio_list() function, there still remains some
logic related to writeback control of dirty file folios.  The original
logic was that, for direct reclaim, or when folio_test_reclaim() is false,
or the PGDAT_DIRTY flag is not set, the dirty file folios would be
directly activated to avoid being scanned again; otherwise, it will try to
writeback the dirty file folios.  However, since we can no longer perform
writeback on dirty folios, the dirty file folios will still be activated.

Additionally, under the original logic, if we continue to try writeback
dirty file folios, we will also check the references flag,
sc->may_writepage, and may_enter_fs(), which may result in dirty file
folios being left in the inactive list.  This is unreasonable.  Even if
these dirty folios are scanned again, we still cannot clean them.

Therefore, the checks on these dirty file folios appear to be redundant
and can be removed.  Dirty file folios should be directly moved to the
active list to avoid being scanned again.  Since we set the PG_reclaim
flag for the dirty folios, once the writeback is completed, they will be
moved back to the tail of the inactive list to be retried for quick
reclaim.

e7a5f249e6 mm: re-enable kswapd when memory pressure subsides or demotion is toggled
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.

8578e0c00d mm, swap: use the swap table for the swap cache and switch API
Introduce basic swap table infrastructures, which are now just a
fixed-sized flat array inside each swap cluster, with access wrappers.

Each cluster contains a swap table of 512 entries.  Each table entry is an
opaque atomic long.  It could be in 3 types: a shadow type (XA_VALUE), a
folio type (pointer), or NULL.

In this first step, it only supports storing a folio or shadow, and it is
a drop-in replacement for the current swap cache.  Convert all swap cache
users to use the new sets of APIs.  Chris Li has been suggesting using a
new infrastructure for swap cache for better performance, and that idea
combined well with the swap table as the new backing structure.  Now the
lock contention range is reduced to 2M clusters, which is much smaller
than the 64M address_space.  And we can also drop the multiple
address_space design.

All the internal works are done with swap_cache_get_* helpers.  Swap cache
lookup is still lock-less like before, and the helper's contexts are same
with original swap cache helpers.  They still require a pin on the swap
device to prevent the backing data from being freed.

Swap cache updates are now protected by the swap cluster lock instead of
the XArray lock.  This is mostly handled internally, but new
__swap_cache_* helpers require the caller to lock the cluster.  So, a few
new cluster access and locking helpers are also introduced.

A fully cluster-based unified swap table can be implemented on top of this
to take care of all count tracking and synchronization work, with dynamic
allocation.  It should reduce the memory usage while making the
performance even better.

4bd22a7ae5 mm: fix duplicate accounting of free pages in should_reclaim_retry()
In the zone_reclaimable_pages() function, if the page counts for
NR_ZONE_INACTIVE_FILE, NR_ZONE_ACTIVE_FILE, NR_ZONE_INACTIVE_ANON, and
NR_ZONE_ACTIVE_ANON are all zero, the function returns the number of free
pages as the result.

In this case, when should_reclaim_retry() calculates reclaimable pages, it
will inadvertently double-count the free pages in its accounting.

static inline bool
should_reclaim_retry(gfp_t gfp_mask, unsigned order,
                     struct alloc_context *ac, int alloc_flags,
                     bool did_some_progress, int *no_progress_loops)
{
        ...
                available = reclaimable = zone_reclaimable_pages(zone);
                available += zone_page_state_snapshot(zone, NR_FREE_PAGES);

This may result in an increase in the number of retries of
__alloc_pages_slowpath(), causing increased kswapd load.

53fbef56e0 mm: introduce memdesc_flags_t
Patch series "Add and use memdesc_flags_t".

At some point struct page will be separated from struct slab and struct
folio.  This is a step towards that by introducing a type for the 'flags'
word of all three structures.  This gives us a certain amount of type
safety by establishing that some of these unsigned longs are different
from other unsigned longs in that they contain things like node ID,
section number and zone number in the upper bits.  That lets us have
functions that can be easily called by anyone who has a slab, folio or
page (but not easily by anyone else) to get the node or zone.

There's going to be some unusual merge problems with this as some odd bits
of the kernel decide they want to print out the flags value or something
similar by writing page->flags and now they'll need to write page->flags.f
instead.  That's most of the churn here.  Maybe we should be removing
these things from the debug output?


This patch (of 11):

Wrap the unsigned long flags in a typedef.  In upcoming patches, this will
provide a strong hint that you can't just pass a random unsigned long to
functions which take this as an argument.

915a4022b5 mm/mglru: update MG-LRU proactive reclaim statistics only to memcg
Users can use /sys/kernel/debug/lru_gen to trigger proactive memory
reclaim of a specified memcg.  Currently, statistics such as pgrefill,
pgscan and pgsteal will be updated to the /proc/vmstat system memory
statistics.

This will confuse some system memory pressure monitoring tools, making it
difficult to determine whether pgscan and pgsteal are caused by
system-level pressure or by proactive memory reclaim of some specific
memory cgroup.

Therefore, make this interface behave similarly to memory.reclaim.  Update
proactive memory reclaim statistics only to its memory cgroup.

eb5ca9094a mm/vmscan: fix inverted polarity in lru_gen_seq_show()
Commit a7694ff11aa9 ("vmscan: don't bother with debugfs_real_fops()")
started using debugfs_get_aux_num() to distinguish between the RW
"lru_gen" and the RO "lru_gen_full" file [1].

Willy reported the inverted polarity [2] and Al fixed it up in [3].

However, the patch in [1] was applied. Hence, fix this up accordingly.

   migrate_{hot,cold} actions" from SeongJae Park facilitates dynamic
   alteration of DAMON's inter-node allocation policy.
 
 - The 3 patch series "Remove unmap_and_put_page()" from Vishal Moola
   provides a couple of page->folio conversions.
 
 - The 4 patch series "mm: per-node proactive reclaim" from Davidlohr
   Bueso implements a per-node control of proactive reclaim - beyond the
   current memcg-based implementation.
 
 - The 14 patch series "mm/damon: remove damon_callback" from SeongJae
   Park replaces the damon_callback interface with a more general and
   powerful damon_call()+damos_walk() interface.

   from Lorenzo Stoakes implements a number of mremap cleanups (of course)
   in preparation for adding new mremap() functionality: newly permit the
   remapping of multiple VMAs when the user is specifying MREMAP_FIXED.  It
   still excludes some specialized situations where this cannot be
   performed reliably.
 
 - The 3 patch series "drop hugetlb_free_pgd_range()" from Anthony Yznaga
   switches some sparc hugetlb code over to the generic version and removes
   the thus-unneeded hugetlb_free_pgd_range().
 
 - The 4 patch series "mm/damon/sysfs: support periodic and automated
   stats update" from SeongJae Park augments the present
   userspace-requested update of DAMON sysfs monitoring files.  Automatic
   update is now provided, along with a tunable to control the update
   interval.
 
 - The 4 patch series "Some randome fixes and cleanups to swapfile" from
   Kemeng Shi does what is claims.
 
 - The 4 patch series "mm: introduce snapshot_page" from Luiz Capitulino
   and David Hildenbrand provides (and uses) a means by which debug-style
   functions can grab a copy of a pageframe and inspect it locklessly
   without tripping over the races inherent in operating on the live
   pageframe directly.
 
 - The 6 patch series "use per-vma locks for /proc/pid/maps reads" from
   Suren Baghdasaryan addresses the large contention issues which can be
   triggered by reads from that procfs file.  Latencies are reduced by more
   than half in some situations.  The series also introduces several new
   selftests for the /proc/pid/maps interface.
 
 - The 6 patch series "__folio_split() clean up" from Zi Yan cleans up
   __folio_split()!
 
 - The 7 patch series "Optimize mprotect() for large folios" from Dev
   Jain provides some quite large (>3x) speedups to mprotect() when dealing
   with large folios.
 
 - The 2 patch series "selftests/mm: reuse FORCE_READ to replace "asm
   volatile("" : "+r" (XXX));" and some cleanup" from wang lian does some
   cleanup work in the selftests code.
 
 - The 3 patch series "tools/testing: expand mremap testing" from Lorenzo
   Stoakes extends the mremap() selftest in several ways, including adding
   more checking of Lorenzo's recently added "permit mremap() move of
   multiple VMAs" feature.
 
 - The 22 patch series "selftests/damon/sysfs.py: test all parameters"
   from SeongJae Park extends the DAMON sysfs interface selftest so that it
   tests all possible user-requested parameters.  Rather than the present
   minimal subset.

526660b950 mm/mglru: stop try_to_inc_min_seq() if min_seq[type] has not increased
In try_to_inc_min_seq(), if min_seq[type] has not increased.  In other
words, min_seq[type] == lrugen->min_seq[type].  Then we should return
directly to avoid unnecessary overhead later.

Corollary: If min_seq[type] of both anonymous and file is not increased,
try_to_inc_min_seq() will fail.

Proof:
It is known that min_seq[type] has not increased, that is, min_seq[type]
is equal to lrugen->min_seq[type], then the following:

case 1: min_seq[type] has not been reassigned and changed before
judgment min_seq[type] <= lrugen->min_seq[type].
Then the subsequent min_seq[type] <= lrugen->min_seq[type] judgment
will always be true.

case 2: min_seq[type] is reassigned to seq, before judgment
min_seq[type] <= lrugen->min_seq[type].
Then at least the condition of min_seq[type] > seq must be met
before min_seq[type] will be reassigned to seq.
That is to say, before the reassignment, lrugen->min_seq[type] > seq
is met, and then min_seq[type] = seq.
Then the following min_seq[type](seq) <= lrugen->min_seq[type] judgment
is always true.

Therefore, in try_to_inc_min_seq(), If min_seq[type] of both anonymous
and file is not increased, we can return false directly to avoid
unnecessary overhead.

9f1e8cd0b7 mm/vmscan: fix hwpoisoned large folio handling in shrink_folio_list
In shrink_folio_list(), the hwpoisoned folio may be large folio, which
can't be handled by unmap_poisoned_folio().  For THP, try_to_unmap_one()
must be passed with TTU_SPLIT_HUGE_PMD to split huge PMD first and then
retry.  Without TTU_SPLIT_HUGE_PMD, we will trigger null-ptr deref of
pvmw.pte.  Even we passed TTU_SPLIT_HUGE_PMD, we will trigger a
WARN_ON_ONCE due to the page isn't in swapcache.

Since UCE is rare in real world, and race with reclaimation is more rare,
just skipping the hwpoisoned large folio is enough.  memory_failure() will
handle it if the UCE is triggered again.

This happens when memory reclaim for large folio races with
memory_failure(), and will lead to kernel panic.  The race is as
follows:

cpu0      cpu1
 shrink_folio_list memory_failure
  TestSetPageHWPoison
  unmap_poisoned_folio
  --> trigger BUG_ON due to
  unmap_poisoned_folio couldn't
   handle large folio

b980077899 mm: introduce per-node proactive reclaim interface
This adds support for allowing proactive reclaim in general on a NUMA
system.  A per-node interface extends support for beyond a memcg-specific
interface, respecting the current semantics of memory.reclaim: respecting
aging LRU and not supporting artificially triggering eviction on nodes
belonging to non-bottom tiers.

This patch allows userspace to do:

     echo "512M swappiness=10" > /sys/devices/system/node/nodeX/reclaim

One of the premises for this is to semantically align as best as possible
with memory.reclaim.  During a brief time memcg did support nodemask until
55ab834a86a9 (Revert "mm: add nodes= arg to memory.reclaim"), for which
semantics around reclaim (eviction) vs demotion were not clear, rendering
charging expectations to be broken.

With this approach:

1. Users who do not use memcg can benefit from proactive reclaim.  The
   memcg interface is not NUMA aware and there are usecases that are
   focusing on NUMA balancing rather than workload memory footprint.

2. Proactive reclaim on top tiers will trigger demotion, for which
   memory is still byte-addressable.  Reclaiming on the bottom nodes will
   trigger evicting to swap (the traditional sense of reclaim).  This
   follows the semantics of what is today part of the aging process on
   tiered memory, mirroring what every other form of reclaim does
   (reactive and memcg proactive reclaim).  Furthermore per-node proactive
   reclaim is not as susceptible to the memcg charging problem mentioned
   above.

3. Unlike the nodes= arg, this interface avoids confusing semantics,
   such as what exactly the user wants when mixing top-tier and low-tier
   nodes in the nodemask.  Further per-node interface is less exposed to
   "free up memory in my container" usecases, where eviction is intended.

4. Users that *really* want to free up memory can use proactive
   reclaim on nodes knowingly to be on the bottom tiers to force eviction
   in a natural way - higher access latencies are still better than swap. 
   If compelled, while no guarantees and perhaps not worth the effort,
   users could also also potentially follow a ladder-like approach to
   eventually free up the memory.  Alternatively, perhaps an 'evict'
   option could be added to the parameters for both memory.reclaim and
   per-node interfaces to force this action unconditionally.

   to reclaim on proactive reclaim"), without the expectations of

457d7b3adb mm: remove __folio_test_movable()
Convert to page_has_movable_ops().  While at it, cleanup relevant code a
bit.

The data_race() in migrate_folio_unmap() is questionable: we already hold
a page reference, and concurrent modifications can no longer happen (iow:
__ClearPageMovable() no longer exists).  Drop it for now, we'll rework
page_has_movable_ops() soon either way to no longer rely on page->mapping.

Wherever we cast from folio to page now is a clear sign that this code has
to be decoupled.

8a6a984c2e mm: remove redundant pXd_devmap calls
DAX was the only thing that created pmd_devmap and pud_devmap entries
however it no longer does as DAX pages are now refcounted normally and
pXd_trans_huge() returns true for those.  Therefore checking both
pXd_devmap and pXd_trans_huge() is redundant and the former can be removed
without changing behaviour as it will always be false.

4b1d3145c1 mm: convert vmf_insert_mixed() from using pte_devmap to pte_special
DAX no longer requires device PTEs as it always has a ZONE_DEVICE page
associated with the PTE that can be reference counted normally.  Other
users of pte_devmap are drivers that set PFN_DEV when calling
vmf_insert_mixed() which ensures vm_normal_page() returns NULL for these
entries.

There is no reason to distinguish these pte_devmap users so in order to
free up a PTE bit use pte_special instead for entries created with
vmf_insert_mixed().  This will ensure vm_normal_page() will continue to
return NULL for these pages.

Architectures that don't support pte_special also don't support pte_devmap
so those will continue to rely on pfn_valid() to determine if the page can
be mapped.

bfbe71109f mm: update core kernel code to use vm_flags_t consistently
The core kernel code is currently very inconsistent in its use of
vm_flags_t vs.  unsigned long.  This prevents us from changing the type of
vm_flags_t in the future and is simply not correct, so correct this.

While this results in rather a lot of churn, it is a critical
pre-requisite for a future planned change to VMA flag type.

Additionally, update VMA userland tests to account for the changes.

To make review easier and to break things into smaller parts, driver and
architecture-specific changes is left for a subsequent commit.

The code has been adjusted to cascade the changes across all calling code
as far as is needed.

We will adjust architecture-specific and driver code in a subsequent patch.

Overall, this patch does not introduce any functional change.

e1b1fe4557 Revert "mm: make alloc_demote_folio externally invokable for migration"
This reverts commit a00ce85af2a1be494d3b0c9457e8e81cdcce2a89.

Commit a00ce85af2a1 ("mm: make alloc_demote_folio externally invokable for
migration") was made to let DAMOS_MIGRATE_{HOT,COLD} call the function. 
But a previous commit made DAMOS_MIGRATE_{HOT,COLD} call
alloc_migration_target() instead.  Hence there are no more callers of the
function outside of vmscan.c.  Revert the commit to make the function
static again.

This reverts commit 8f75267d22bdf8e3baf70f2fa7092d8c2f58da71.

Commit 8f75267d22bd ("mm: rename alloc_demote_folio to
alloc_migrate_folio") was to reflect the fact the function is called for
not only demotion, but also general migrations from
DAMOS_MIGRATE_{HOT,COLD}.  The previous commit made the DAMOS actions to
not use alloc_migrate_folio(), though.  So, demote_folio_list() is the
only caller of alloc_migrate_folio(), and the name could now be rather
confusing.  Revert the renaming commit.

86c4a94643 mm: split out a writeout helper from pageout
Patch series "stop passing a writeback_control to swap/shmem writeout",
v3.

This series was intended to remove the last remaining users of
AOP_WRITEPAGE_ACTIVATE after my other pending patches removed the rest,
but spectacularly failed at that.

But instead it nicely improves the code, and removes two pointers from
struct writeback_control.


This patch (of 6):

Move the code to write back swap / shmem folios into a self-contained
helper to keep prepare for refactoring it.

af827e0904 mm: vmscan: apply proportional reclaim pressure for memcg when MGLRU is enabled
The scan implementation for MGLRU was missing proportional reclaim
pressure for memcg, which contradicts the description in
Documentation/admin-guide/cgroup-v2.rst (memory.{low,min} section).

This issue can be observed in kselftest cgroup:test_memcontrol
(specifically test_memcg_min and test_memcg_low).  The following table
shows the actual values observed in my local test env (on xfs) and the
error "e", which is the symmetric absolute percentage error from the ideal
values of 29M for c[0] and 21M for c[1].

  test_memcg_min

         | MGLRU enabled   | MGLRU enabled   | MGLRU disabled
         | Without patch   | With patch      |
    -----|-----------------|-----------------|---------------
    c[0] | 25964544 (e=8%) | 28770304 (e=3%) | 27820032 (e=4%)
    c[1] | 26214400 (e=9%) | 23998464 (e=4%) | 24776704 (e=6%)

  test_memcg_low

         | MGLRU enabled   | MGLRU enabled   | MGLRU disabled
         | Without patch   | With patch      |
    -----|-----------------|-----------------|---------------
    c[0] | 26214400 (e=7%) | 27930624 (e=4%) | 27688960 (e=5%)
    c[1] | 26214400 (e=9%) | 24764416 (e=6%) | 24920064 (e=6%)

Factor out the proportioning logic to a new function and have MGLRU reuse
it.  While at it, update the eviction behavior via debugfs 'lru_gen'
interface ('-' command with an explicit 'nr_to_reclaim' parameter) to
ensure eviction is limited to the specified number.

Merge tag 'fuse-update-6.16' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mszeredi/fuse

Pull fuse updates from Miklos Szeredi:

 - Remove tmp page copying in writeback path (Joanne).

   This removes ~300 lines and with that a lot of complexity related to
   avoiding reclaim related deadlock. The old mechanism is replaced with
   a mapping flag that tells the MM not to block reclaim waiting for
   writeback to complete. The MM parts have been reviewed/acked by
   respective maintainers.

 - Convert more code to handle large folios (Joanne). This still just
   adds the code to deal with large folios and does not enable them yet.

 - Allow invalidating all cached lookups atomically (Luis Henriques).
   This feature is useful for CernVMFS, which currently does this
   iteratively.

 - Align write prefaulting in fuse with generic one (Dave Hansen)

 - Fix race causing invalid data to be cached when setting attributes on
   different nodes of a distributed fs (Guang Yuan Wu)

 - Update documentation for passthrough (Chen Linxuan)

 - Add fdinfo about the device number associated with an opened
   /dev/fuse instance (Chen Linxuan)

 - Increase readdir buffer size (Miklos). This depends on a patch to VFS
   readdir code that was already merged through Christians tree.

 - Optimize io-uring request expiration (Joanne)

 - Misc cleanups

00c010e130 - The 11 patch series "Add folio_mk_pte()" from Matthew Wilcox
simplifies the act of creating a pte which addresses the first page in a
   folio and reduces the amount of plumbing which architecture must
   implement to provide this.
 
 - The 8 patch series "Misc folio patches for 6.16" from Matthew Wilcox
   is a shower of largely unrelated folio infrastructure changes which
   clean things up and better prepare us for future work.
 
 - The 3 patch series "memory,x86,acpi: hotplug memory alignment
   advisement" from Gregory Price adds early-init code to prevent x86 from
   leaving physical memory unused when physical address regions are not
   aligned to memory block size.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/compaction: allow more aggressive proactive
   compaction" from Michal Clapinski provides some tuning of the (sadly,
   hard-coded (more sadly, not auto-tuned)) thresholds for our invokation
   of proactive compaction.  In a simple test case, the reduction of a guest
   VM's memory consumption was dramatic.
 
 - The 8 patch series "Minor cleanups and improvements to swap freeing
   code" from Kemeng Shi provides some code cleaups and a small efficiency
   improvement to this part of our swap handling code.
 
 - The 6 patch series "ptrace: introduce PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO API"
   from Dmitry Levin adds the ability for a ptracer to modify syscalls
   arguments.  At this time we can alter only "system call information that
   are used by strace system call tampering, namely, syscall number,
   syscall arguments, and syscall return value.
 
   This series should have been incorporated into mm.git's "non-MM"
   branch, but I goofed.
 
 - The 3 patch series "fs/proc: extend the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl to report
   guard regions" from Andrei Vagin extends the info returned by the
   PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl against /proc/pid/pagemap.  This permits CRIU to more
   efficiently get at the info about guard regions.
 
 - The 2 patch series "Fix parameter passed to page_mapcount_is_type()"
   from Gavin Shan implements that fix.  No runtime effect is expected
   because validate_page_before_insert() happens to fix up this error.
 
 - The 3 patch series "kernel/events/uprobes: uprobe_write_opcode()
   rewrite" from David Hildenbrand basically brings uprobe text poking into
   the current decade.  Remove a bunch of hand-rolled implementation in
   favor of using more current facilities.
 
 - The 3 patch series "mm/ptdump: Drop assumption that pxd_val() is u64"
   from Anshuman Khandual provides enhancements and generalizations to the
   pte dumping code.  This might be needed when 128-bit Page Table
   Descriptors are enabled for ARM.
 
 - The 12 patch series "Always call constructor for kernel page tables"
   from Kevin Brodsky "ensures that the ctor/dtor is always called for
   kernel pgtables, as it already is for user pgtables".  This permits the
   addition of more functionality such as "insert hooks to protect page
   tables".  This change does result in various architectures performing
   unnecesary work, but this is fixed up where it is anticipated to occur.
 
 - The 9 patch series "Rust support for mm_struct, vm_area_struct, and
   mmap" from Alice Ryhl adds plumbing to permit Rust access to core MM
   structures.
 
 - The 3 patch series "fix incorrectly disallowed anonymous VMA merges"
   from Lorenzo Stoakes takes advantage of some VMA merging opportunities
   which we've been missing for 15 years.
 
 - The 4 patch series "mm/madvise: batch tlb flushes for MADV_DONTNEED
   and MADV_FREE" from SeongJae Park optimizes process_madvise()'s TLB
   flushing.  Instead of flushing each address range in the provided iovec,
   we batch the flushing across all the iovec entries.  The syscall's cost
   was approximately halved with a microbenchmark which was designed to
   load this particular operation.
 
 - The 6 patch series "Track node vacancy to reduce worst case allocation
   counts" from Sidhartha Kumar makes the maple tree smarter about its node
   preallocation.  stress-ng mmap performance increased by single-digit
   percentages and the amount of unnecessarily preallocated memory was
   dramaticelly reduced.
 
 - The 3 patch series "mm/gup: Minor fix, cleanup and improvements" from
   Baoquan He removes a few unnecessary things which Baoquan noted when
   reading the code.
 
 - The 3 patch series ""Enhance sysfs handling for memory hotplug in
   weighted interleave" from Rakie Kim "enhances the weighted interleave
   policy in the memory management subsystem by improving sysfs handling,
   fixing memory leaks, and introducing dynamic sysfs updates for memory
   hotplug support".  Fixes things on error paths which we are unlikely to
   hit.
 
 - The 7 patch series "mm/damon: auto-tune DAMOS for NUMA setups
   including tiered memory" from SeongJae Park introduces new DAMOS quota
   goal metrics which eliminate the manual tuning which is required when
   utilizing DAMON for memory tiering.
 
 - The 5 patch series "mm/vmalloc.c: code cleanup and improvements" from
   Baoquan He provides cleanups and small efficiency improvements which
   Baoquan found via code inspection.
 
 - The 2 patch series "vmscan: enforce mems_effective during demotion"
   from Gregory Price "changes reclaim to respect cpuset.mems_effective
   during demotion when possible".  because "presently, reclaim explicitly
   ignores cpuset.mems_effective when demoting, which may cause the cpuset
   settings to violated." "This is useful for isolating workloads on a
   multi-tenant system from certain classes of memory more consistently."
 
 - The 2 patch series ""Clean up split_huge_pmd_locked() and remove
   unnecessary folio pointers" from Gavin Guo provides minor cleanups and
   efficiency gains in in the huge page splitting and migrating code.
 
 - The 3 patch series "Use kmem_cache for memcg alloc" from Huan Yang
   creates a slab cache for `struct mem_cgroup', yielding improved memory
   utilization.
 
 - The 4 patch series "add max arg to swappiness in memory.reclaim and
   lru_gen" from Zhongkun He adds a new "max" argument to the "swappiness="
   argument for memory.reclaim MGLRU's lru_gen.  This directs proactive
   reclaim to reclaim from only anon folios rather than file-backed folios.
 
 - The 17 patch series "kexec: introduce Kexec HandOver (KHO)" from Mike
   Rapoport is the first step on the path to permitting the kernel to
   maintain existing VMs while replacing the host kernel via file-based
   kexec.  At this time only memblock's reserve_mem is preserved.
 
 - The 7 patch series "mm: Introduce for_each_valid_pfn()" from David
   Woodhouse provides and uses a smarter way of looping over a pfn range.
   By skipping ranges of invalid pfns.
 
 - The 2 patch series "sched/numa: Skip VMA scanning on memory pinned to
   one NUMA node via cpuset.mems" from Libo Chen removes a lot of pointless
   VMA scanning when a task is pinned a single NUMA mode.  Dramatic
   performance benefits were seen in some real world cases.
 
 - The 2 patch series "JFS: Implement migrate_folio for
   jfs_metapage_aops" from Shivank Garg addresses a warning which occurs
   during memory compaction when using JFS.
 
 - The 4 patch series "move all VMA allocation, freeing and duplication
   logic to mm" from Lorenzo Stoakes moves some VMA code from kernel/fork.c
   into the more appropriate mm/vma.c.
 
 - The 6 patch series "mm, swap: clean up swap cache mapping helper" from
   Kairui Song provides code consolidation and cleanups related to the
   folio_index() function.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/gup: Cleanup memfd_pin_folios()" from Vishal
   Moola does that.
 
 - The 8 patch series "memcg: Fix test_memcg_min/low test failures" from
   Waiman Long addresses some bogus failures which are being reported by
   the test_memcontrol selftest.
 
 - The 3 patch series "eliminate mmap() retry merge, add .mmap_prepare
   hook" from Lorenzo Stoakes commences the deprecation of
   file_operations.mmap() in favor of the new
   file_operations.mmap_prepare().  The latter is more restrictive and
   prevents drivers from messing with things in ways which, amongst other
   problems, may defeat VMA merging.
 
 - The 4 patch series "memcg: decouple memcg and objcg stocks"" from
   Shakeel Butt decouples the per-cpu memcg charge cache from the objcg's
   one.  This is a step along the way to making memcg and objcg charging
   NMI-safe, which is a BPF requirement.
 
 - The 6 patch series "mm/damon: minor fixups and improvements for code,
   tests, and documents" from SeongJae Park is "yet another batch of
   miscellaneous DAMON changes.  Fix and improve minor problems in code,
   tests and documents."
 
 - The 7 patch series "memcg: make memcg stats irq safe" from Shakeel
   Butt converts memcg stats to be irq safe.  Another step along the way to
   making memcg charging and stats updates NMI-safe, a BPF requirement.
 
 - The 4 patch series "Let unmap_hugepage_range() and several related
   functions take folio instead of page" from Fan Ni provides folio
   conversions in the hugetlb code.

   SeongJae Park optimizes process_madvise()'s TLB flushing.

   Instead of flushing each address range in the provided iovec, we
   batch the flushing across all the iovec entries. The syscall's cost
   was approximately halved with a microbenchmark which was designed to
   load this particular operation.

 - "Track node vacancy to reduce worst case allocation counts" from
   Sidhartha Kumar makes the maple tree smarter about its node
   preallocation.

   stress-ng mmap performance increased by single-digit percentages and
   the amount of unnecessarily preallocated memory was dramaticelly
   reduced.

 - "mm/gup: Minor fix, cleanup and improvements" from Baoquan He removes
   a few unnecessary things which Baoquan noted when reading the code.

 - ""Enhance sysfs handling for memory hotplug in weighted interleave"
   from Rakie Kim "enhances the weighted interleave policy in the memory
   management subsystem by improving sysfs handling, fixing memory
   leaks, and introducing dynamic sysfs updates for memory hotplug
   support". Fixes things on error paths which we are unlikely to hit.

 - "mm/damon: auto-tune DAMOS for NUMA setups including tiered memory"
   from SeongJae Park introduces new DAMOS quota goal metrics which
   eliminate the manual tuning which is required when utilizing DAMON
   for memory tiering.

 - "mm/vmalloc.c: code cleanup and improvements" from Baoquan He
   provides cleanups and small efficiency improvements which Baoquan
   found via code inspection.

 - "vmscan: enforce mems_effective during demotion" from Gregory Price
   changes reclaim to respect cpuset.mems_effective during demotion when
   possible. because presently, reclaim explicitly ignores
   cpuset.mems_effective when demoting, which may cause the cpuset
   settings to violated.

   This is useful for isolating workloads on a multi-tenant system from
   certain classes of memory more consistently.

 - "Clean up split_huge_pmd_locked() and remove unnecessary folio
   pointers" from Gavin Guo provides minor cleanups and efficiency gains
   in in the huge page splitting and migrating code.

 - "Use kmem_cache for memcg alloc" from Huan Yang creates a slab cache
   for `struct mem_cgroup', yielding improved memory utilization.

 - "add max arg to swappiness in memory.reclaim and lru_gen" from
   Zhongkun He adds a new "max" argument to the "swappiness=" argument
   for memory.reclaim MGLRU's lru_gen.

   This directs proactive reclaim to reclaim from only anon folios
   rather than file-backed folios.

 - "kexec: introduce Kexec HandOver (KHO)" from Mike Rapoport is the
   first step on the path to permitting the kernel to maintain existing
   VMs while replacing the host kernel via file-based kexec. At this
   time only memblock's reserve_mem is preserved.

 - "mm: Introduce for_each_valid_pfn()" from David Woodhouse provides
   and uses a smarter way of looping over a pfn range. By skipping
   ranges of invalid pfns.

 - "sched/numa: Skip VMA scanning on memory pinned to one NUMA node via
   cpuset.mems" from Libo Chen removes a lot of pointless VMA scanning
   when a task is pinned a single NUMA mode.

   Dramatic performance benefits were seen in some real world cases.

 - "JFS: Implement migrate_folio for jfs_metapage_aops" from Shivank
   Garg addresses a warning which occurs during memory compaction when
   using JFS.

 - "move all VMA allocation, freeing and duplication logic to mm" from
   Lorenzo Stoakes moves some VMA code from kernel/fork.c into the more
   appropriate mm/vma.c.

 - "mm, swap: clean up swap cache mapping helper" from Kairui Song
   provides code consolidation and cleanups related to the folio_index()
   function.

 - "mm/gup: Cleanup memfd_pin_folios()" from Vishal Moola does that.

 - "memcg: Fix test_memcg_min/low test failures" from Waiman Long
   addresses some bogus failures which are being reported by the
   test_memcontrol selftest.

 - "eliminate mmap() retry merge, add .mmap_prepare hook" from Lorenzo
   Stoakes commences the deprecation of file_operations.mmap() in favor
   of the new file_operations.mmap_prepare().

   The latter is more restrictive and prevents drivers from messing with
   things in ways which, amongst other problems, may defeat VMA merging.

 - "memcg: decouple memcg and objcg stocks"" from Shakeel Butt decouples
   the per-cpu memcg charge cache from the objcg's one.

   This is a step along the way to making memcg and objcg charging
   NMI-safe, which is a BPF requirement.

 - "mm/damon: minor fixups and improvements for code, tests, and
   documents" from SeongJae Park is yet another batch of miscellaneous
   DAMON changes. Fix and improve minor problems in code, tests and
   documents.

 - "memcg: make memcg stats irq safe" from Shakeel Butt converts memcg
   stats to be irq safe. Another step along the way to making memcg
   charging and stats updates NMI-safe, a BPF requirement.

 - "Let unmap_hugepage_range() and several related functions take folio
   instead of page" from Fan Ni provides folio conversions in the
   hugetlb code.

e52401e724 memcg: make count_memcg_events re-entrant safe against irqs
Let's make count_memcg_events re-entrant safe against irqs.  The only
thing needed is to convert the usage of __this_cpu_add() to
this_cpu_add().  In addition, with re-entrant safety, there is no need to
disable irqs.  Also add warnings for in_nmi() as it is not safe against
nmi context.

a73dbc851c mm: use SWAPPINESS_ANON_ONLY in MGLRU
Using SWAPPINESS_ANON_ONLY instead of MAX_SWAPPINESS + 1 to indicate
reclaiming only from anonymous pages makes the code more readable and
explicit.

Add some comment in the SWAPPINESS_ANON_ONLY context.

b40599930f mm: add max swappiness arg to lru_gen for anonymous memory only
The MGLRU already supports reclaiming only from anonymous memory via the
/sys/kernel/debug/lru_gen interface.  Now, memory.reclaim also supports
the swappiness=max parameter to enable reclaiming solely from anonymous
memory.  To unify the semantics of proactive reclaiming from anonymous
folios, the max parameter is introduced.
