Patch series "mm/ksm: break_ksm() cleanups and fixes", v2.

This series cleans up and fixes break_ksm().  In summary, we no longer use
fake write faults to break COW but instead FAULT_FLAG_UNSHARE.  Further,
we move away from using follow_page() --- that we can hopefully remove
completely at one point --- and use new walk_page_range_vma() instead.

Fortunately, we can get rid of VM_FAULT_WRITE and FOLL_MIGRATION in common
code now.

Extend the existing ksm tests by an unmerge benchmark, and a some new
unmerge tests.

Also, add a selftest to measure MADV_UNMERGEABLE performance.  In my setup
(AMD Ryzen 9 3900X), running the KSM selftest to test unmerge performance
on 2 GiB (taskset 0x8 ./ksm_tests -D -s 2048), this results in a
performance degradation of ~6% -- 7% (old: ~5250 MiB/s, new: ~4900 MiB/s).
I don't think we particularly care for now, but it's good to be aware of
the implication.


This patch (of 9):

Let's add three unmerge tests (MADV_UNMERGEABLE unmerging all pages in the
range).

test_unmerge(): basic unmerge tests
test_unmerge_discarded(): have some pte_none() entries in the range
test_unmerge_uffd_wp(): protect the merged pages using uffd-wp

ksm_tests.c currently contains a mixture of benchmarks and tests, whereby
each test is carried out by executing the ksm_tests binary with specific
parameters.  Let's add new ksm_functional_tests.c that performs multiple,
smaller functional tests all at once.

Patch series "mm/gup: remove FOLL_FORCE usage from drivers (reliable R/O
long-term pinning)".

For now, we did not support reliable R/O long-term pinning in COW
mappings.  That means, if we would trigger R/O long-term pinning in
MAP_PRIVATE mapping, we could end up pinning the (R/O-mapped) shared
zeropage or a pagecache page.

The next write access would trigger a write fault and replace the pinned
page by an exclusive anonymous page in the process page table; whatever
the process would write to that private page copy would not be visible by
the owner of the previous page pin: for example, RDMA could read stale
data.  The end result is essentially an unexpected and hard-to-debug
memory corruption.

Some drivers tried working around that limitation by using
"FOLL_FORCE|FOLL_WRITE|FOLL_LONGTERM" for R/O long-term pinning for now. 
FOLL_WRITE would trigger a write fault, if required, and break COW before
pinning the page.  FOLL_FORCE is required because the VMA might lack write
permissions, and drivers wanted to make that working as well, just like
one would expect (no write access, but still triggering a write access to
break COW).

However, that is not a practical solution, because
(1) Drivers that don't stick to that undocumented and debatable pattern
    would still run into that issue. For example, VFIO only uses
    FOLL_LONGTERM for R/O long-term pinning.
(2) Using FOLL_WRITE just to work around a COW mapping + page pinning
    limitation is unintuitive. FOLL_WRITE would, for example, mark the
    page softdirty or trigger uffd-wp, even though, there actually isn't
    going to be any write access.
(3) The purpose of FOLL_FORCE is debug access, not access without lack of
    VMA permissions by arbitrarty drivers.

So instead, make R/O long-term pinning work as expected, by breaking COW
in a COW mapping early, such that we can remove any FOLL_FORCE usage from
drivers and make FOLL_FORCE ptrace-specific (renaming it to FOLL_PTRACE).
More details in patch #8.


This patch (of 19):

Originally, the plan was to have a separate tests for testing COW of
non-anonymous (e.g., shared zeropage) pages.

Turns out, that we'd need a lot of similar functionality and that there
isn't a really good reason to separate it. So let's prepare for non-anon
tests by renaming to "cow".

io_uring provides a simple mechanism to test long-term, R/W GUP pins
-- via fixed buffers -- and can be used to verify that GUP pins stay
in sync with the pages in the page table even if a page would
temporarily get mapped R/O or concurrent fork() could accidentially
end up sharing pinned pages with the child.

Note that this essentially re-introduces local_config support that was
removed recently in commit 6f83d6c74ea5 ("Kselftests: remove support of
libhugetlbfs from kselftests").

io_uring provides a simple mechanism to test long-term, R/W GUP pins
-- via fixed buffers -- and can be used to verify that GUP pins stay
in sync with the pages in the page table even if a page would
temporarily get mapped R/O or concurrent fork() could accidentially
end up sharing pinned pages with the child.

Note that this essentially re-introduces local_config support that was
removed recently in commit 6f83d6c74ea5 ("Kselftests: remove support of
libhugetlbfs from kselftests").

Patch series "selftests/vm: test COW handling of anonymous memory".

This is my current set of tests for testing COW handling of anonymous
memory, especially when interacting with GUP.  I developed these tests
while working on PageAnonExclusive and managed to clean them up just now.

On current upstream Linux, all tests pass except the hugetlb tests that
rely on vmsplice -- these tests should pass as soon as vmsplice properly
uses FOLL_PIN instead of FOLL_GET.

I'm working on additional tests for COW handling in private mappings,
focusing on long-term R/O pinning e.g., of the shared zeropage, pagecache
pages and KSM pages.  These tests, however, will go into a different file.
So this is everything I have regarding tests for anonymous memory.


This patch (of 7):

Let's start adding tests for our COW handling of anonymous memory.  We'll
focus on basic tests that we can achieve without additional libraries or
gup_test extensions.

We'll add THP and hugetlb tests separately.

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.

<title>selftests/vm: use top_srcdir instead of recomputing relative paths</title>

In various places both in t/t/s/v/Makefile as well as some of the test
sources, we were referring to headers or directories using some fairly
long relative paths.

Since we have a working top_srcdir variable though, which refers to the
root of the kernel tree, we can clean up all of these "up and over"
relative paths, just relying on the single variable instead.

Add :collapse mod to userfaultfd selftest.  Currently this mod is only
valid for "shmem" test type, but could be used for other test types.

When provided, memory allocated by -&gt;allocate_area() will be
hugepage-aligned enforced to be hugepage-sized.  userfaultf_minor_test,
after the UFFD-registered mapping has been populated by UUFD minor fault
handler, attempt to MADV_COLLAPSE the UFFD-registered mapping to collapse
the memory into a pmd-mapped THP.

This test is meant to be a functional test of what occurs during
UFFD-driven live migration of VMs backed by huge tmpfs where, after a
hugepage-sized region has been successfully migrated (in native page-sized
chunks, to avoid latency of fetched a hugepage over the network), we want
to reclaim previous VM performance by remapping it at the PMD level.

<title>selftests/vm: dedup THP helpers</title>

These files:

tools/testing/selftests/vm/vm_util.c
tools/testing/selftests/vm/khugepaged.c

Both contain logic to:

1) Determine hugepage size on current system
2) Read /proc/self/smaps to determine number of THPs at an address

Refactor selftests/vm/khugepaged.c to use the vm_util common helpers and
add it as a build dependency.

Since selftests/vm/khugepaged.c is the largest user of check_huge(),
change the signature of check_huge() to match selftests/vm/khugepaged.c's
useage: take an expected number of hugepages, and return a bool indicating
if the correct number of hugepages were found.  Add a wrapper,
check_huge_anon(), in anticipation of checking smaps for file and shmem
hugepages.

Update existing callsites to use the new pattern / function.

Likewise, check_for_pattern() was duplicated, and it's a general enough
helper to include in vm_util helpers as well.

These files:

tools/testing/selftests/vm/vm_util.c
tools/testing/selftests/vm/khugepaged.c

Both contain logic to:

1) Determine hugepage size on current system
2) Read /proc/self/smaps to determine number of THPs at an address

Refactor selftests/vm/khugepaged.c to use the vm_util common helpers and
add it as a build dependency.

Since selftests/vm/khugepaged.c is the largest user of check_huge(),
change the signature of check_huge() to match selftests/vm/khugepaged.c's
useage: take an expected number of hugepages, and return a bool indicating
if the correct number of hugepages were found.  Add a wrapper,
check_huge_anon(), in anticipation of checking smaps for file and shmem
hugepages.

Update existing callsites to use the new pattern / function.

Likewise, check_for_pattern() was duplicated, and it's a general enough
helper to include in vm_util helpers as well.

<title>Kselftests: remove support of libhugetlbfs from kselftests</title>

libhugetlbfs, the user side utitlity to work with hugepages, does not have
any active support.  There are only 2 selftests which are part of in
vm/hmm_test.c that depends on libhugetlbfs.

This patch modifies the tests so that they will not require libhugetlb
library.
