DAMON sysfs interface's update_schemes_tried_regions command has a timeout
of two apply intervals of the DAMOS scheme.  Having zero value DAMOS
scheme apply interval means it will use the aggregation interval as the
value.  However, the timeout setup logic is mistakenly using the sampling
interval insted of the aggregartion interval for the case.  This could
cause earlier-than-expected timeout of the command.  Fix it.

<title>mm/zswap: don't return LRU_SKIP if we have dropped lru lock</title>

LRU_SKIP can only be returned if we don't ever dropped lru lock, or we
need to return LRU_RETRY to restart from the head of lru list.

Otherwise, the iteration might continue from a cursor position that was
freed while the locks were dropped.

Actually we may need to introduce another LRU_STOP to really terminate the
ongoing shrinking scan process, when we encounter a warm page already in
the swap cache.  The current list_lru implementation doesn't have this
function to early break from __list_lru_walk_one.

In the per-memcg LRU universe, LRU removal uses entry-&gt;objcg to determine
which list count needs to be decreased.  Drop the objcg reference after
updating the LRU, to fix a possible use-after-free.

The problem is that page-&gt;mapping is overloaded with slab-&gt;slab_list or
slabs fields now, so slab pages could be taken as non-LRU movable pages if
field slabs contains PAGE_MAPPING_MOVABLE or slab_list-&gt;prev is set to
LIST_POISON2.  These slab pages will be treated as thp later leading to
crash in split_huge_page_to_list().

The problem is that page-&gt;mapping is overloaded with slab-&gt;slab_list or
slabs fields now, so slab pages could be taken as non-LRU movable pages if
field slabs contains PAGE_MAPPING_MOVABLE or slab_list-&gt;prev is set to
LIST_POISON2.  These slab pages will be treated as thp later leading to
crash in split_huge_page_to_list().

<title>mm: memcg: optimize parent iteration in memcg_rstat_updated()</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.toradex.cn/cgit/linux-toradex.git/commit/?id=9cee7e8ef3e31ca25b40ca52b8585dc6935deff2'/>
<id>9cee7e8ef3e31ca25b40ca52b8585dc6935deff2</id>
<content type='text'>
In memcg_rstat_updated(), we iterate the memcg being updated and its
parents to update memcg-&gt;vmstats_percpu-&gt;stats_updates in the fast path
(i.e. no atomic updates). According to my math, this is 3 memory loads
(and potentially 3 cache misses) per memcg:
- Load the address of memcg-&gt;vmstats_percpu.
- Load vmstats_percpu-&gt;stats_updates (based on some percpu calculation).
- Load the address of the parent memcg.

Avoid most of the cache misses by caching a pointer from each struct
memcg_vmstats_percpu to its parent on the corresponding CPU. In this
case, for the first memcg we have 2 memory loads (same as above):
- Load the address of memcg-&gt;vmstats_percpu.
- Load vmstats_percpu-&gt;stats_updates (based on some percpu calculation).

Then for each additional memcg, we need a single load to get the
parent's stats_updates directly. This reduces the number of loads from
O(3N) to O(2+N) -- where N is the number of memcgs we need to iterate.

Additionally, stash a pointer to memcg-&gt;vmstats in each struct
memcg_vmstats_percpu such that we can access the atomic counter that all
CPUs fold into, memcg-&gt;vmstats-&gt;stats_updates.
memcg_should_flush_stats() is changed to memcg_vmstats_needs_flush() to
accept a struct memcg_vmstats pointer accordingly.

In struct memcg_vmstats_percpu, make sure both pointers together with
stats_updates live on the same cacheline. Finally, update
mem_cgroup_alloc() to take in a parent pointer and initialize the new
cache pointers on each CPU. The percpu loop in mem_cgroup_alloc() may
look concerning, but there are multiple similar loops in the cgroup
creation path (e.g. cgroup_rstat_init()), most of which are hidden
within alloc_percpu().

According to Oliver's testing [1], this fixes multiple 30-38%
regressions in vm-scalability, will-it-scale-tlb_flush2, and
will-it-scale-fallocate1. This comes at a cost of 2 more pointers per
CPU (&lt;2KB on a machine with 128 CPUs).

<title>mm/userfaultfd: UFFDIO_MOVE implementation should use ptep_get()</title>

Commit c33c794828f2 ("mm: ptep_get() conversion") converted all (non-arch)
call sites to use ptep_get() instead of doing a direct dereference of the
pte.  Full rationale can be found in that commit's log.

Since then, UFFDIO_MOVE has been implemented which does 7 direct pte
dereferences.  Let's fix those up to use ptep_get().

I've asserted in the past that there is no reliable automated mechanism to
catch these; I'm relying on a combination of Coccinelle (which throws up a
lot of false positives) and some compiler magic to force a compiler error
on dereference.  But given the frequency with which new issues are coming
up, I'll add it to my todo list to try to find an automated solution.

<title>blk-wbt: Fix detection of dirty-throttled tasks</title>

<content type='text'>
The detection of dirty-throttled tasks in blk-wbt has been subtly broken
since its beginning in 2016. Namely if we are doing cgroup writeback and
the throttled task is not in the root cgroup, balance_dirty_pages() will
set dirty_sleep for the non-root bdi_writeback structure. However
blk-wbt checks dirty_sleep only in the root cgroup bdi_writeback
structure. Thus detection of recently throttled tasks is not working in
this case (we noticed this when we switched to cgroup v2 and suddently
writeback was slow).

Since blk-wbt has no easy way to get to proper bdi_writeback and
furthermore its intention has always been to work on the whole device
rather than on individual cgroups, just move the dirty_sleep timestamp
from bdi_writeback to backing_dev_info. That fixes the checking for
recently throttled task and saves memory for everybody as a bonus.
