Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
 "Along with the usual shower of singleton patches, notable patch series
  in this pull request are:

   - "Align kvrealloc() with krealloc()" from Danilo Krummrich. Adds
     consistency to the APIs and behaviour of these two core allocation
     functions. This also simplifies/enables Rustification.

   - "Some cleanups for shmem" from Baolin Wang. No functional changes -
     mode code reuse, better function naming, logic simplifications.

   - "mm: some small page fault cleanups" from Josef Bacik. No
     functional changes - code cleanups only.

   - "Various memory tiering fixes" from Zi Yan. A small fix and a
     little cleanup.

   - "mm/swap: remove boilerplate" from Yu Zhao. Code cleanups and
     simplifications and .text shrinkage.

   - "Kernel stack usage histogram" from Pasha Tatashin and Shakeel
     Butt. This is a feature, it adds new feilds to /proc/vmstat such as

       $ grep kstack /proc/vmstat
       kstack_1k 3
       kstack_2k 188
       kstack_4k 11391
       kstack_8k 243
       kstack_16k 0

     which tells us that 11391 processes used 4k of stack while none at
     all used 16k. Useful for some system tuning things, but
     partivularly useful for "the dynamic kernel stack project".

   - "kmemleak: support for percpu memory leak detect" from Pavel
     Tikhomirov. Teaches kmemleak to detect leaksage of percpu memory.

   - "mm: memcg: page counters optimizations" from Roman Gushchin. "3
     independent small optimizations of page counters".

   - "mm: split PTE/PMD PT table Kconfig cleanups+clarifications" from
     David Hildenbrand. Improves PTE/PMD splitlock detection, makes
     powerpc/8xx work correctly by design rather than by accident.

   - "mm: remove arch_make_page_accessible()" from David Hildenbrand.
     Some folio conversions which make arch_make_page_accessible()
     unneeded.

   - "mm, memcg: cg2 memory{.swap,}.peak write handlers" fro David
     Finkel. Cleans up and fixes our handling of the resetting of the
     cgroup/process peak-memory-use detector.

   - "Make core VMA operations internal and testable" from Lorenzo
     Stoakes. Rationalizaion and encapsulation of the VMA manipulation
     APIs. With a view to better enable testing of the VMA functions,
     even from a userspace-only harness.

   - "mm: zswap: fixes for global shrinker" from Takero Funaki. Fix
     issues in the zswap global shrinker, resulting in improved
     performance.

   - "mm: print the promo watermark in zoneinfo" from Kaiyang Zhao. Fill
     in some missing info in /proc/zoneinfo.

   - "mm: replace follow_page() by folio_walk" from David Hildenbrand.
     Code cleanups and rationalizations (conversion to folio_walk())
     resulting in the removal of follow_page().

   - "improving dynamic zswap shrinker protection scheme" from Nhat
     Pham. Some tuning to improve zswap's dynamic shrinker. Significant
     reductions in swapin and improvements in performance are shown.

   - "mm: Fix several issues with unaccepted memory" from Kirill
     Shutemov. Improvements to the new unaccepted memory feature,

   - "mm/mprotect: Fix dax puds" from Peter Xu. Implements mprotect on
     DAX PUDs. This was missing, although nobody seems to have notied
     yet.

   - "Introduce a store type enum for the Maple tree" from Sidhartha
     Kumar. Cleanups and modest performance improvements for the maple
     tree library code.

   - "memcg: further decouple v1 code from v2" from Shakeel Butt. Move
     more cgroup v1 remnants away from the v2 memcg code.

   - "memcg: initiate deprecation of v1 features" from Shakeel Butt.
     Adds various warnings telling users that memcg v1 features are
     deprecated.

   - "mm: swap: mTHP swap allocator base on swap cluster order" from
     Chris Li. Greatly improves the success rate of the mTHP swap
     allocation.

   - "mm: introduce numa_memblks" from Mike Rapoport. Moves various
     disparate per-arch implementations of numa_memblk code into generic
     code.

   - "mm: batch free swaps for zap_pte_range()" from Barry Song. Greatly
     improves the performance of munmap() of swap-filled ptes.

   - "support large folio swap-out and swap-in for shmem" from Baolin
     Wang. With this series we no longer split shmem large folios into
     simgle-page folios when swapping out shmem.

   - "mm/hugetlb: alloc/free gigantic folios" from Yu Zhao. Nice
     performance improvements and code reductions for gigantic folios.

   - "support shmem mTHP collapse" from Baolin Wang. Adds support for
     khugepaged's collapsing of shmem mTHP folios.

   - "mm: Optimize mseal checks" from Pedro Falcato. Fixes an mprotect()
     performance regression due to the addition of mseal().

   - "Increase the number of bits available in page_type" from Matthew
     Wilcox. Increases the number of bits available in page_type!

   - "Simplify the page flags a little" from Matthew Wilcox. Many legacy
     page flags are now folio flags, so the page-based flags and their
     accessors/mutators can be removed.

   - "mm: store zero pages to be swapped out in a bitmap" from Usama
     Arif. An optimization which permits us to avoid writing/reading
     zero-filled zswap pages to backing store.

   - "Avoid MAP_FIXED gap exposure" from Liam Howlett. Fixes a race
     window which occurs when a MAP_FIXED operqtion is occurring during
     an unrelated vma tree walk.

   - "mm: remove vma_merge()" from Lorenzo Stoakes. Major rotorooting of
     the vma_merge() functionality, making ot cleaner, more testable and
     better tested.

   - "misc fixups for DAMON {self,kunit} tests" from SeongJae Park.
     Minor fixups of DAMON selftests and kunit tests.

   - "mm: memory_hotplug: improve do_migrate_range()" from Kefeng Wang.
     Code cleanups and folio conversions.

   - "Shmem mTHP controls and stats improvements" from Ryan Roberts.
     Cleanups for shmem controls and stats.

   - "mm: count the number of anonymous THPs per size" from Barry Song.
     Expose additional anon THP stats to userspace for improved tuning.

     improve related doc and warn" from Jason Wang: fixes usage of page
     allocator __GFP_NOFAIL and GFP_ATOMIC flags.

   - "mm: split underused THPs" from Yu Zhao. Improve THP=always policy.
     This was overprovisioning THPs in sparsely accessed memory areas.

   - "zram: introduce custom comp backends API" frm Sergey Senozhatsky.
     Add support for zram run-time compression algorithm tuning.

   - "mm: Care about shadow stack guard gap when getting an unmapped
     area" from Mark Brown. Fix up the various arch_get_unmapped_area()
     implementations to better respect guard areas.

   - "Improve mem_cgroup_iter()" from Kinsey Ho. Improve the reliability
     of mem_cgroup_iter() and various code cleanups.

     from Huang Ying. Fix a bug in region_intersects() for systems with
     CXL memory.

   - "mm: hwpoison: two more poison recovery" from Kefeng Wang. Teaches
     a couple more code paths to correctly recover from the encountering
     of poisoned memry.

   - "mm: enable large folios swap-in support" from Barry Song. Support
     the swapin of mTHP memory into appropriately-sized folios, rather
     than into single-page folios"

This is a followup to CONFIG-urability of cpuset and memory controllers
for v1 hierarchies. Make the output in /proc/cgroups reflect that
!CONFIG_CPUSETS_V1 is like !CONFIG_CPUSETS and
!CONFIG_MEMCG_V1 is like !CONFIG_MEMCG.

The intended effect is that hiding the unavailable controllers will hint
users not to try mounting them on v1.

The configs that disable some v1 controllers would still allow mounting
them but with no controller-specific files. (Making such hierarchies
equivalent to named v1 hierarchies.) To achieve behavior consistent with
actual out-compilation of a whole controller, the mounts should treat
respective controllers as non-existent.

Wrap implementation into a helper function, leverage legacy_files to
detect compiled out controllers. The effect is that mounts on v1 would
fail and produce a message like:
  [ 1543.999081] cgroup: Unknown subsys name 'memory'

The cpuset filesystem is a legacy interface to cpuset controller with
(pre-)v1 features. It makes little sense to co-mount it on systems
without cpuset v1, so do not build it when cpuset v1 is not built
neither.

Patch series "Improve mem_cgroup_iter()", v4.

Incremental cgroup iteration is being used again [1]. This patchset
improves the reliability of mem_cgroup_iter(). It also improves
simplicity and code readability.

[1] https://lore.kernel.org/20240514202641.2821494-1-hannes@cmpxchg.org/


This patch (of 5):

Explicitly document that css sibling/descendant linkage is protected by
cgroup_mutex or RCU.  Also, document in css_next_descendant_pre() and
similar functions that it isn't necessary to hold a ref on @pos.

The following changes in this patchset rely on this clarification for
simplification in memcg iteration code.

The newly created cpuset-v1.c file uses cpus_read_lock/unlock() functions
which are defined in cpu.h but not included in cpuset-internal.h yet
leading to compilation error under certain kernel configurations.  Fix it
by moving the cpu.h include from cpuset.c to cpuset-internal.h. While
at it, sort the include files in alphabetic order.

<content type='text'>
Patch series "mm, memcg: cg2 memory{.swap,}.peak write handlers", v7.


This patch (of 2):

Other mechanisms for querying the peak memory usage of either a process or
v1 memory cgroup allow for resetting the high watermark.  Restore parity
with those mechanisms, but with a less racy API.

For example:
 - Any write to memory.max_usage_in_bytes in a cgroup v1 mount resets
   the high watermark.
 - writing "5" to the clear_refs pseudo-file in a processes's proc
   directory resets the peak RSS.

This change is an evolution of a previous patch, which mostly copied the
cgroup v1 behavior, however, there were concerns about races/ownership
issues with a global reset, so instead this change makes the reset
filedescriptor-local.

Writing any non-empty string to the memory.peak and memory.swap.peak
pseudo-files reset the high watermark to the current usage for subsequent
reads through that same FD.

Notably, following Johannes's suggestion, this implementation moves the
O(FDs that have written) behavior onto the FD write(2) path.  Instead, on
the page-allocation path, we simply add one additional watermark to
conditionally bump per-hierarchy level in the page-counter.

Additionally, this takes Longman's suggestion of nesting the
page-charging-path checks for the two watermarks to reduce the number of
common-case comparisons.

This behavior is particularly useful for work scheduling systems that need
to track memory usage of worker processes/cgroups per-work-item.  Since
memory can't be squeezed like CPU can (the OOM-killer has opinions), these
systems need to track the peak memory usage to compute system/container
fullness when binpacking workitems.

Most notably, Vimeo's use-case involves a system that's doing global
binpacking across many Kubernetes pods/containers, and while we can use
PSI for some local decisions about overload, we strive to avoid packing
workloads too tightly in the first place.  To facilitate this, we track
the peak memory usage.  However, since we run with long-lived workers (to
amortize startup costs) we need a way to track the high watermark while a
work-item is executing.  Polling runs the risk of missing short spikes
that last for timescales below the polling interval, and peak memory
tracking at the cgroup level is otherwise perfect for this use-case.

As this data is used to ensure that binpacked work ends up with sufficient
headroom, this use-case mostly avoids the inaccuracies surrounding
reclaimable memory.
