Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:

 - Yu Zhao's Multi-Gen LRU patches are here. They've been under test in
   linux-next for a couple of months without, to my knowledge, any
   negative reports (or any positive ones, come to that).

 - Also the Maple Tree from Liam Howlett. An overlapping range-based
   tree for vmas. It it apparently slightly more efficient in its own
   right, but is mainly targeted at enabling work to reduce mmap_lock
   contention.

   Liam has identified a number of other tree users in the kernel which
   could be beneficially onverted to mapletrees.

   Yu Zhao has identified a hard-to-hit but "easy to fix" lockdep splat
   at [1]. This has yet to be addressed due to Liam's unfortunately
   timed vacation. He is now back and we'll get this fixed up.

 - Dmitry Vyukov introduces KMSAN: the Kernel Memory Sanitizer. It uses
   clang-generated instrumentation to detect used-unintialized bugs down
   to the single bit level.

   KMSAN keeps finding bugs. New ones, as well as the legacy ones.

 - Yang Shi adds a userspace mechanism (madvise) to induce a collapse of
   memory into THPs.

 - Zach O'Keefe has expanded Yang Shi's madvise(MADV_COLLAPSE) to
   support file/shmem-backed pages.

 - userfaultfd updates from Axel Rasmussen

 - zsmalloc cleanups from Alexey Romanov

 - cleanups from Miaohe Lin: vmscan, hugetlb_cgroup, hugetlb and
   memory-failure

 - Huang Ying adds enhancements to NUMA balancing memory tiering mode's
   page promotion, with a new way of detecting hot pages.

 - memcg updates from Shakeel Butt: charging optimizations and reduced
   memory consumption.

 - memcg cleanups from Kairui Song.

 - memcg fixes and cleanups from Johannes Weiner.

 - Vishal Moola provides more folio conversions

 - Zhang Yi removed ll_rw_block() :(

 - migration enhancements from Peter Xu

 - migration error-path bugfixes from Huang Ying

 - Aneesh Kumar added ability for a device driver to alter the memory
   tiering promotion paths. For optimizations by PMEM drivers, DRM
   drivers, etc.

 - vma merging improvements from Jakub Matěn.

 - NUMA hinting cleanups from David Hildenbrand.

 - xu xin added aditional userspace visibility into KSM merging
   activity.

 - THP &amp; KSM code consolidation from Qi Zheng.

 - more folio work from Matthew Wilcox.

 - KASAN updates from Andrey Konovalov.

 - DAMON cleanups from Kaixu Xia.

 - DAMON work from SeongJae Park: fixes, cleanups.

 - hugetlb sysfs cleanups from Muchun Song.

 - Mike Kravetz fixes locking issues in hugetlbfs and in hugetlb core.

Pull kernel hardening updates from Kees Cook:
 "Most of the collected changes here are fixes across the tree for
  various hardening features (details noted below).

  The most notable new feature here is the addition of the memcpy()
  overflow warning (under CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE), which is the next step
  on the path to killing the common class of "trivially detectable"
  buffer overflow conditions (i.e. on arrays with sizes known at compile
  time) that have resulted in many exploitable vulnerabilities over the
  years (e.g. BleedingTooth).

  This feature is expected to still have some undiscovered false
  positives. It's been in -next for a full development cycle and all the
  reported false positives have been fixed in their respective trees.
  All the known-bad code patterns we could find with Coccinelle are also
  either fixed in their respective trees or in flight.

  The commit message in commit 54d9469bc515 ("fortify: Add run-time WARN
  for cross-field memcpy()") for the feature has extensive details, but
  I'll repeat here that this is a warning _only_, and is not intended to
  actually block overflows (yet). The many patches fixing array sizes
  and struct members have been landing for several years now, and we're
  finally able to turn this on to find any remaining stragglers.

  Summary:

  Various fixes across several hardening areas:

   - loadpin: Fix verity target enforcement (Matthias Kaehlcke).

   - zero-call-used-regs: Add missing clobbers in paravirt (Bill
     Wendling).

   - CFI: clean up sparc function pointer type mismatches (Bart Van
     Assche).

   - Clang: Adjust compiler flag detection for various Clang changes
     (Sami Tolvanen, Kees Cook).

   - fortify: Fix warnings in arch-specific code in sh, ARM, and xen.

  Improvements to existing features:

   - testing: improve overflow KUnit test, introduce fortify KUnit test,
     add more coverage to LKDTM tests (Bart Van Assche, Kees Cook).

   - overflow: Relax overflow type checking for wider utility.

  New features:

   - string: Introduce strtomem() and strtomem_pad() to fill a gap in
     strncpy() replacement needs.

   - um: Enable FORTIFY_SOURCE support.

   - fortify: Enable run-time struct member memcpy() overflow warning"

EFI stub cannot be linked with KMSAN runtime, so we disable
instrumentation for it.

Instrumenting kcov, stackdepot or lockdep leads to infinite recursion
caused by instrumentation hooks calling instrumented code again.

<title>Maple Tree: add new data structure</title>

Patch series "Introducing the Maple Tree"

The maple tree is an RCU-safe range based B-tree designed to use modern
processor cache efficiently.  There are a number of places in the kernel
that a non-overlapping range-based tree would be beneficial, especially
one with a simple interface.  If you use an rbtree with other data
structures to improve performance or an interval tree to track
non-overlapping ranges, then this is for you.

The tree has a branching factor of 10 for non-leaf nodes and 16 for leaf
nodes.  With the increased branching factor, it is significantly shorter
than the rbtree so it has fewer cache misses.  The removal of the linked
list between subsequent entries also reduces the cache misses and the need
to pull in the previous and next VMA during many tree alterations.

The first user that is covered in this patch set is the vm_area_struct,
where three data structures are replaced by the maple tree: the augmented
rbtree, the vma cache, and the linked list of VMAs in the mm_struct.  The
long term goal is to reduce or remove the mmap_lock contention.

The plan is to get to the point where we use the maple tree in RCU mode.
Readers will not block for writers.  A single write operation will be
allowed at a time.  A reader re-walks if stale data is encountered.  VMAs
would be RCU enabled and this mode would be entered once multiple tasks
are using the mm_struct.

Sheer coincidence.  We designed our tree with the intention of solving the
hardest problem first.  Upon settling on a b-tree variant and a rough
outline, we researched ranged based b-trees and RCU b-trees and did find
that article.  So it was nice to find reassurances that we were on the
right path, but our design choice of using ranges made that paper unusable
for us.

This patch (of 70):

There is additional BUG_ON() calls added within the tree, most of which
are in debug code.  These will be replaced with a WARN_ON() call in the
future.  There is also additional BUG_ON() calls within the code which
will also be reduced in number at a later date.  These exist to catch
things such as out-of-range accesses which would crash anyways.

Provide a simple module to allow testing DYNAMIC_DEBUG behavior.  It
calls do_prints() from module-init, and with a sysfs-node.

  dmesg -C
  dmesg -w &amp;
  modprobe test_dynamic_debug dyndbg=+p
  echo 1 &gt; /sys/module/dynamic_debug/parameters/verbose

  cat /sys/module/test_dynamic_debug/parameters/do_prints
  echo module test_dynamic_debug +mftl &gt; /proc/dynamic_debug/control
  echo junk &gt; /sys/module/test_dynamic_debug/parameters/do_prints
