The pudp_test_and_clear_young() is used to clear the young flag, returning
whether the young flag was set for this PUD entry. Change the return type
to bool to make the intention clearer.

Reduce 22 declarations of empty_zero_page to 3 and 23 declarations of
ZERO_PAGE() to 4.
Every architecture defines empty_zero_page that way or another, but for the
most of them it is always a page aligned page in BSS and most definitions
of ZERO_PAGE do virt_to_page(empty_zero_page).
Move Linus vetted x86 definition of empty_zero_page and ZERO_PAGE() to the
core MM and drop these definitions in architectures that do not implement
colored zero page (MIPS and s390).
ZERO_PAGE() remains a macro because turning it to a wrapper for a static
inline causes severe pain in header dependencies.
For the most part the change is mechanical, with these being noteworthy:
* alpha: aliased empty_zero_page with ZERO_PGE that was also used for boot
parameters. Switching to a generic empty_zero_page removes the aliasing
and keeps ZERO_PGE for boot parameters only
* arm64: uses __pa_symbol() in ZERO_PAGE() so that definition of
ZERO_PAGE() is kept intact.
* m68k/parisc/um: allocated empty_zero_page from memblock,
although they do not support zero page coloring and having it in BSS
will work fine.
* sparc64 can have empty_zero_page in BSS rather allocate it, but it
can't use virt_to_page() for BSS. Keep it's definition of ZERO_PAGE()
but instead of allocating it, make mem_map_zero point to
empty_zero_page.
* sh: used empty_zero_page for boot parameters at the very early boot.
Rename the parameters page to boot_params_page and let sh use the generic
empty_zero_page.
* hexagon: had an amusing comment about empty_zero_page
/* A handy thing to have if one has the RAM. Declared in head.S */
that unfortunately had to go :)

In previous patch we renamed tlbie_va_lpid functions to
tlbie_va_pid_lpid() since those were working with PIDs as well.
This then allows us to rename tlbie_lpid_va to tlbie_va_lpid, which
finally makes all the tlbie function naming consistent.
No functional change in this patch.

It only make sense to rename these functions, so it's better reflect what
they are supposed to do. For e.g. __tlbie_va_pid_lpid name better reflect
that it is invalidating tlbie using VA, PID and LPID.

In previous patch we removed the only caller of exit_lazy_flush_tlb()
which was passing always_flush = false in it's second argument.
With that gone, all the callers of exit_lazy_flush_tlb() are local to
radix_pgtable.c and there is no need of an additional argument.
This patch does the required cleanup. There should not be any
functionality change in this patch.

Originally,
commit fa4531f753f1 ("powerpc/mm: Don't send IPI to all cpus on THP updates")
introduced serialize_against_pte_lookup() call for both Radix and Hash.
However below commit fixed the race with Radix
commit 70cbc3cc78a9 ("mm: gup: fix the fast GUP race against THP collapse")
And therefore following commit removed the
serialize_against_pte_lookup() call from radix_pgtable.c
commit bedf03416913
("powerpc/64s/radix: don't need to broadcast IPI for radix pmd collapse flush")
Now since serialize_against_pte_lookup() only gets called from
hash__pmdp_collapse_flush(), thus move the related functions to
hash_pgtable.c
Hence this patch:
- moves serialize_against_pte_lookup() from radix_pgtable.c to hash_pgtable.c
- removes the radix specific calls from do_serialize()
- renames do_serialize() to do_nothing().
There should not be any functionality change in this patch.

The following race is possible with migration swap entries or
device-private THP entries. e.g. when move_pages is called on a PMD THP
page, then there maybe an intermediate state, where PMD entry acts as
a migration swap entry (pmd_present() is true). Then if an munmap
happens at the same time, then this VM_BUG_ON() can happen in
pmdp_huge_get_and_clear_full().
This patch fixes that.

powerpc uses pt_frag_refcount as a reference counter for tracking it's
pte and pmd page table fragments. For PTE table, in case of Hash with
64K pagesize, we have 16 fragments of 4K size in one 64K page.
Patch series [1] "mm: free retracted page table by RCU"
added pte_free_defer() to defer the freeing of PTE tables when
retract_page_tables() is called for madvise MADV_COLLAPSE on shmem
range.
[1]: https://lore.kernel.org/all/7cd843a9-aa80-14f-5eb2-33427363c20@google.com/
pte_free_defer() sets the active flag on the corresponding fragment's
folio & calls pte_fragment_free(), which reduces the pt_frag_refcount.
When pt_frag_refcount reaches 0 (no active fragment using the folio), it
checks if the folio active flag is set, if set, it calls call_rcu to
free the folio, it the active flag is unset then it calls pte_free_now().
Now, this can lead to following problem in a corner case...

The bad page state error occurs when such a folio gets freed (with
active flag set), from do_exit() path in parallel.
... this can happen when the pte fragment was allocated from this folio,
but when all the fragments get freed, the pte_frag_refcount still had some
unused fragments. Now, if this process exits, with such folio as it's cached
pte_frag in mm->context, then during pte_frag_destroy(), we simply call
pagetable_dtor() and pagetable_free(), meaning it doesn't clear the
active flag. This, can lead to the above bug. Since we are anyway in
do_exit() path, then if the refcount is 0, then I guess it should be
ok to simply clear the folio active flag before calling pagetable_dtor()
& pagetable_free().

commit 4267739cabb8 ("arch, mm: consolidate initialization of SPARSE memory model"),
changed the initialization order of "pageblock_order" from...
start_kernel()
- setup_arch()
- initmem_init()
- sparse_init()
- set_pageblock_order(); // this sets the pageblock_order
- xxx_cma_reserve();
to...
start_kernel()
- setup_arch()
- xxx_cma_reserve();
- mm_core_init_early()
- free_area_init()
- sparse_init()
- set_pageblock_order() // this sets the pageblock_order.
So this means, pageblock_order is not initialized before these cma
reservation function calls, hence we are seeing CMA failures like...
[ 0.000000] kvm_cma_reserve: reserving 3276 MiB for global area
[ 0.000000] cma: pageblock_order not yet initialized. Called during early boot?
[ 0.000000] cma: Failed to reserve 3276 MiB
....
[ 0.000000][ T0] cma: pageblock_order not yet initialized. Called during early boot?
[ 0.000000][ T0] cma: Failed to reserve 1024 MiB
This patch moves these CMA reservations to arch_mm_preinit() which
happens in mm_core_init() (which happens after pageblock_order is
initialized), but before the memblock moves the free memory to buddy.

This converts some of the visually simpler cases that have been split
over multiple lines. I only did the ones that are easy to verify the
resulting diff by having just that final GFP_KERNEL argument on the next
line.
Somebody should probably do a proper coccinelle script for this, but for
me the trivial script actually resulted in an assertion failure in the
middle of the script. I probably had made it a bit _too_ trivial.
So after fighting that far a while I decided to just do some of the
syntactically simpler cases with variations of the previous 'sed'
scripts.
The more syntactically complex multi-line cases would mostly really want
whitespace cleanup anyway.

This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using
git grep -l '\<k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'
to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.
Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.
For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:
Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)
Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)
Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)
(where TYPE may also be *VAR)
The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

On creation and clearing of a page table mapping, instrument such calls by
invoking page_table_check_pte_set and page_table_check_pte_clear
respectively. These calls serve as a sanity check against illegal
mappings.
Enable ARCH_SUPPORTS_PAGE_TABLE_CHECK on powerpc, except when HUGETLB_PAGE
is enabled (powerpc has some weirdness in how it implements
set_huge_pte_at(), which may require some further work).

In the new set_ptes() API, set_pte_at() (a special case of set_ptes()) is
intended to be instrumented by the page table check facility. There are
however several other routines that constitute the API for setting page
table entries, including set_pmd_at() among others. Such routines are
themselves implemented in terms of set_ptes_at().
A future patch providing support for page table checking on powerpc must
take care to avoid duplicate calls to page_table_check_p{te,md,ud}_set().
Allow for assignment of pte entries without instrumentation through the
set_pte_at_unchecked() routine introduced in this patch.
Cause API-facing routines that call set_pte_at() to instead call
set_pte_at_unchecked(), which will remain uninstrumented by page table
check. set_ptes() is itself implemented by calls to __set_pte_at(), so
this eliminates redundant code.

Every architecture that supports hugetlb_cma command line parameter
reserves CMA areas for hugetlb during setup_arch().
This obfuscates the ordering of hugetlb CMA initialization with respect to
the rest initialization of the core MM.
Introduce arch_hugetlb_cma_order() callback to allow architectures report
the desired order-per-bit of CMA areas and provide a week implementation
of arch_hugetlb_cma_order() for architectures that don't support hugetlb
with CMA.
Use this callback in hugetlb_cma_reserve() instead if passing the order as
parameter and call hugetlb_cma_reserve() from mm_core_init_early() rather
than have it spread over architecture specific code.

Every architecture calls sparse_init() during setup_arch() although the
data structures created by sparse_init() are not used until the
initialization of the core MM.
Beside the code duplication, calling sparse_init() from architecture
specific code causes ordering differences of vmemmap and HVO
initialization on different architectures.
Move the call to sparse_init() from architecture specific code to
free_area_init() to ensure that vmemmap and HVO initialization order is
always the same.

To initialize node, zone and memory map data structures every architecture
calls free_area_init() during setup_arch() and passes it an array of zone
limits.
Beside code duplication it creates "interesting" ordering cases between
allocation and initialization of hugetlb and the memory map. Some
architectures allocate hugetlb pages very early in setup_arch() in certain
cases, some only create hugetlb CMA areas in setup_arch() and sometimes
hugetlb allocations happen mm_core_init().
With arch_zone_limits_init() helper available now on all architectures it
is no longer necessary to call free_area_init() from architecture setup
code. Rather core MM initialization can call arch_zone_limits_init() in a
single place.
This allows to unify ordering of hugetlb vs memory map allocation and
initialization.
Remove the call to free_area_init() from architecture specific code and
place it in a new mm_core_init_early() function that is called immediately
after setup_arch().
After this refactoring it is possible to consolidate hugetlb allocations
and eliminate differences in ordering of hugetlb and memory map
initialization among different architectures.
As the first step of this consolidation move hugetlb_bootmem_alloc() to
mm_core_early_init().

Move calculations of zone limits to a dedicated arch_zone_limits_init()
function.
Later MM core will use this function as an architecture specific callback
during nodes and zones initialization and thus there won't be a need to
call free_area_init() from every architecture.

A per-CPU batch struct is activated when entering lazy MMU mode; its
lifetime is the same as the lazy MMU section (it is deactivated when
leaving the mode). Preemption is disabled in that interval to ensure that
the per-CPU reference remains valid.
The generic lazy_mmu layer now tracks whether a task is in lazy MMU mode.
We can therefore use the generic helper is_lazy_mmu_mode_active() to tell
whether a batch struct is active instead of tracking it explicitly.

The implementation of the lazy MMU mode is currently entirely
arch-specific; core code directly calls arch helpers:
arch_{enter,leave}_lazy_mmu_mode().
We are about to introduce support for nested lazy MMU sections. As things
stand we'd have to duplicate that logic in every arch implementing
lazy_mmu - adding to a fair amount of logic already duplicated across
lazy_mmu implementations.
This patch therefore introduces a new generic layer that calls the
existing arch_* helpers. Two pair of calls are introduced:
* lazy_mmu_mode_enable() ... lazy_mmu_mode_disable()
This is the standard case where the mode is enabled for a given
block of code by surrounding it with enable() and disable()
calls.
* lazy_mmu_mode_pause() ... lazy_mmu_mode_resume()
This is for situations where the mode is temporarily disabled
by first calling pause() and then resume() (e.g. to prevent any
batching from occurring in a critical section).
The documentation in <linux/pgtable.h> will be updated in a subsequent
patch.
No functional change should be introduced at this stage. The
implementation of enable()/resume() and disable()/pause() is currently
identical, but nesting support will change that.
Most of the call sites have been updated using the following Coccinelle
script:
@@
@@
{
...
- arch_enter_lazy_mmu_mode();
+ lazy_mmu_mode_enable();
...
- arch_leave_lazy_mmu_mode();
+ lazy_mmu_mode_disable();
...
}
@@
@@
{
...
- arch_leave_lazy_mmu_mode();
+ lazy_mmu_mode_pause();
...
- arch_enter_lazy_mmu_mode();
+ lazy_mmu_mode_resume();
...
}
A couple of notes regarding x86:
* Xen is currently the only case where explicit handling is required
for lazy MMU when context-switching. This is purely an
implementation detail and using the generic lazy_mmu_mode_*
functions would cause trouble when nesting support is introduced,
because the generic functions must be called from the current task.
For that reason we still use arch_leave() and arch_enter() there.
* x86 calls arch_flush_lazy_mmu_mode() unconditionally in a few
places, but only defines it if PARAVIRT_XXL is selected, and we
are removing the fallback in <linux/pgtable.h>. Add a new fallback
definition to <asm/pgtable.h> to keep things building.

At the time being, TASK_SIZE can be customized by the user via Kconfig
but it is not possible to check all constraints in Kconfig. Impossible
setups are detected at compile time with BUILD_BUG() but that leads
to build failure when setting crazy values. It is not a problem on its
own because the user will usually either use the default value or set
a well thought value. However build robots generate crazy random
configs that lead to build failures, and build robots see it as a
regression every time a patch adds such a constraint.
So instead of failing the build when the custom TASK_SIZE is too
big, just adjust it to the maximum possible value matching the setup.
Several architectures already calculate TASK_SIZE based on other
parameters and options.
In order to do so, move MODULES_VADDR calculation into task_size_32.h
and ensure that:
- On book3s/32, userspace and module area have their own segments (256M)
- On 8xx, userspace has its own full PGDIR entries (4M)
Then TASK_SIZE is guaranteed to be correct so remove related
BUILD_BUG()s.

For book3s/32 it is assumed that TASK_SIZE is a multiple of 256 Mbytes,
but Kconfig allows any value for TASK_SIZE.
In all relevant calculations, align TASK_SIZE to the upper 256 Mbytes
boundary.
Also use ASM_CONST() in the definition of TASK_SIZE to ensure it is
seen as an unsigned constant.

no_slb_preload cmdline can come useful in quickly disabling and/or
testing the performance impact of userspace slb preloads. Recently there
was a slb multi-hit issue due to slb preload cache which was very
difficult to triage. This cmdline option allows to quickly disable
preloads and verify if the issue exists in preload cache or somewhere
else. This can also be a useful option to see the effect of slb preloads
for any application workload e.g. number of slb faults with or w/o slb
preloads.
with slb_preload:
slb_faults (minimal initrd boot): 15
slb_faults (full systemd boot): 300

Update the directMap page counters for Hash. Hash by default always uses
mmu_linear_psize only, for it's directMap. However, once the kernel has
booted and the dmesg log is wrapped over there is no way of knowing the
kernel linear pagesize with Hash mmu. Features like debug_page_alloc can
make mmu_linear_psize to be PAGE_SIZE instead of PMD / PUD mappings. It
would be easier if we have this info printed in proc meminfo similar to
Radix for debugging purposes.

HPTE format was changed since Power9 (ISA 3.0) onwards. While dumping
kernel hash page tables, nothing gets printed on powernv P9+. This patch
utilizes the helpers added in the patch tagged as fixes, to convert new
format to old format and dump the hptes. This fix is only needed for
native_find() (powernv), since pseries continues to work fine with the
old format.

When HV=0 & IR/DR=0, the Hash MMU is said to be in Virtual Real
Addressing Mode during early boot. During this, we should ensure that
memory region allocations for stress_hpt_struct should happen from
within RMA region as otherwise the boot might get stuck while doing
memset of this region.
History behind why do we have RMA region limitation is better explained
in these 2 patches [1] & [2]. This patch ensures that memset to
stress_hpt_struct during early boot does not cross ppc64_rma_size
boundary.

On systems using the hash MMU, there is a software SLB preload cache that
mirrors the entries loaded into the hardware SLB buffer. This preload
cache is subject to periodic eviction — typically after every 256 context
switches — to remove old entry.
To optimize performance, the kernel skips switch_mmu_context() in
switch_mm_irqs_off() when the prev and next mm_struct are the same.
However, on hash MMU systems, this can lead to inconsistencies between
the hardware SLB and the software preload cache.
If an SLB entry for a process is evicted from the software cache on one
CPU, and the same process later runs on another CPU without executing
switch_mmu_context(), the hardware SLB may retain stale entries. If the
kernel then attempts to reload that entry, it can trigger an SLB
multi-hit error.
The following timeline shows how stale SLB entries are created and can
cause a multi-hit error when a process moves between CPUs without a
MMU context switch.

* that since the prev mm_struct running on cpu-0 was same as the
* next mm_struct (which is true for swapper / kernel threads). So
* now when we try to add this new entry into the HW SLB of cpu-0,

>From the above analysis, during early exec the hardware SLB is cleared,
and entries from the software preload cache are reloaded into hardware
by switch_slb. However, preload_new_slb_context and slb_setup_new_exec
also attempt to load some of the same entries, which can trigger a
multi-hit. In most cases, these additional preloads simply hit existing
entries and add nothing new. Removing these functions avoids redundant
preloads and eliminates the multi-hit issue. This patch removes these
two functions.
We tested process switching performance using the context_switch
benchmark on POWER9/hash, and observed no regression.

On 32-bit book3s with hash-MMUs, tlb_flush() was a no-op. This was
unnoticed because all uses until recently were for unmaps, and thus
handled by __tlb_remove_tlb_entry().
After commit 4a18419f71cd ("mm/mprotect: use mmu_gather") in kernel 5.19,
tlb_gather_mmu() started being used for mprotect as well. This caused
mprotect to simply not work on these machines:
int *ptr = mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE,
MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0);
*ptr = 1; // force HPTE to be created
mprotect(ptr, 4096, PROT_READ);
*ptr = 2; // should segfault, but succeeds
Fixed by making tlb_flush() actually flush TLB pages. This finally
agrees with the behaviour of boot3s64's tlb_flush().

Patch series "kasan: unify kasan_enabled() and remove arch-specific
implementations", v6.
This patch series addresses the fragmentation in KASAN initialization
across architectures by introducing a unified approach that eliminates
duplicate static keys and arch-specific kasan_arch_is_ready()
implementations.
The core issue is that different architectures have inconsistent approaches
to KASAN readiness tracking:
- PowerPC, LoongArch, and UML arch, each implement own kasan_arch_is_ready()
- Only HW_TAGS mode had a unified static key (kasan_flag_enabled)
- Generic and SW_TAGS modes relied on arch-specific solutions
or always-on behavior
This patch (of 2):
Introduce CONFIG_ARCH_DEFER_KASAN to identify architectures [1] that need
to defer KASAN initialization until shadow memory is properly set up, and
unify the static key infrastructure across all KASAN modes.
[1] PowerPC, UML, LoongArch selects ARCH_DEFER_KASAN.

static keys and arch-specific kasan_arch_is_ready() implementations.
Let's replace kasan_arch_is_ready() with existing kasan_enabled() check,
which examines the static key being enabled if arch selects
ARCH_DEFER_KASAN or has HW_TAGS mode support. For other arch,
kasan_enabled() checks the enablement during compile time.
Now KASAN users can use a single kasan_enabled() check everywhere.

PAGE_KERNEL_TEXT is an old macro that is used to tell kernel whether
kernel text has to be mapped read-only or read-write based on build
time options.
But nowadays, with functionnalities like jump_labels, static links,
etc ... more only less all kernels need to be read-write at some
point, and some combinations of configs failed to work due to
innacurate setting of PAGE_KERNEL_TEXT. On the other hand, today
we have CONFIG_STRICT_KERNEL_RWX which implements a more controlled
access to kernel modifications.
Instead of trying to keep PAGE_KERNEL_TEXT accurate with all
possible options that may imply kernel text modification, always
set kernel text read-write at startup and rely on
CONFIG_STRICT_KERNEL_RWX to provide accurate protection.
Do this by passing PAGE_KERNEL_X to map_kernel_page() in
__maping_ram_chunk() instead of passing PAGE_KERNEL_TEXT. Once
this is done, the only remaining user of PAGE_KERNEL_TEXT is
mmu_mark_initmem_nx() which uses it in a call to setibat().
As setibat() ignores the RW/RO, we can seamlessly replace
PAGE_KERNEL_TEXT by PAGE_KERNEL_X here as well and get rid of
PAGE_KERNEL_TEXT completely.

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.

We want to make use of "pgtable_level" for an enum in core-mm. Other
architectures seem to call "struct pgtable_level" either:
* "struct pg_level" when not exposed in a header (riscv, arm)
* "struct ptdump_pg_level" when expose in a header (arm64)
So let's follow what arm64 does.

SPRN_M_TWB contains the address of task PGD minus an offset which
compensates the offset required when accessing the kernel PGDIR.
However, since commit ac9f97ff8b32 ("powerpc/8xx: Inconditionally use
task PGDIR in DTLB misses") and commit 33c527522f39 ("powerpc/8xx:
Inconditionally use task PGDIR in ITLB misses") kernel PGDIR is not
used anymore in hot paths.
Remove this offset which was added by
commit fde5a9057fcf ("powerpc/8xx: Optimise access to swapper_pg_dir")

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
"As usual, many cleanups. The below blurbiage describes 42 patchsets.
21 of those are partially or fully cleanup work. "cleans up",
"cleanup", "maintainability", "rationalizes", etc.
I never knew the MM code was so dirty.
"mm: ksm: prevent KSM from breaking merging of new VMAs" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
addresses an issue with KSM's PR_SET_MEMORY_MERGE mode: newly
mapped VMAs were not eligible for merging with existing adjacent
VMAs.
"mm/damon: introduce DAMON_STAT for simple and practical access monitoring" (SeongJae Park)
adds a new kernel module which simplifies the setup and usage of
DAMON in production environments.
"stop passing a writeback_control to swap/shmem writeout" (Christoph Hellwig)
is a cleanup to the writeback code which removes a couple of
pointers from struct writeback_control.
"drivers/base/node.c: optimization and cleanups" (Donet Tom)
contains largely uncorrelated cleanups to the NUMA node setup and
management code.
"mm: userfaultfd: assorted fixes and cleanups" (Tal Zussman)
does some maintenance work on the userfaultfd code.
"Readahead tweaks for larger folios" (Ryan Roberts)
implements some tuneups for pagecache readahead when it is reading
into order>0 folios.
"selftests/mm: Tweaks to the cow test" (Mark Brown)
provides some cleanups and consistency improvements to the
selftests code.
"Optimize mremap() for large folios" (Dev Jain)
does that. A 37% reduction in execution time was measured in a
memset+mremap+munmap microbenchmark.
"Remove zero_user()" (Matthew Wilcox)
expunges zero_user() in favor of the more modern memzero_page().
"mm/huge_memory: vmf_insert_folio_*() and vmf_insert_pfn_pud() fixes" (David Hildenbrand)
addresses some warts which David noticed in the huge page code.
These were not known to be causing any issues at this time.
"mm/damon: use alloc_migrate_target() for DAMOS_MIGRATE_{HOT,COLD" (SeongJae Park)
provides some cleanup and consolidation work in DAMON.
"use vm_flags_t consistently" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
uses vm_flags_t in places where we were inappropriately using other
types.
"mm/memfd: Reserve hugetlb folios before allocation" (Vivek Kasireddy)
increases the reliability of large page allocation in the memfd
code.
"mm: Remove pXX_devmap page table bit and pfn_t type" (Alistair Popple)
removes several now-unneeded PFN_* flags.
"mm/damon: decouple sysfs from core" (SeongJae Park)
implememnts some cleanup and maintainability work in the DAMON
sysfs layer.
"madvise cleanup" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
does quite a lot of cleanup/maintenance work in the madvise() code.
"madvise anon_name cleanups" (Vlastimil Babka)
provides additional cleanups on top or Lorenzo's effort.
"Implement numa node notifier" (Oscar Salvador)
creates a standalone notifier for NUMA node memory state changes.
Previously these were lumped under the more general memory
on/offline notifier.
"Make MIGRATE_ISOLATE a standalone bit" (Zi Yan)
cleans up the pageblock isolation code and fixes a potential issue
which doesn't seem to cause any problems in practice.
"selftests/damon: add python and drgn based DAMON sysfs functionality tests" (SeongJae Park)
adds additional drgn- and python-based DAMON selftests which are
more comprehensive than the existing selftest suite.
"Misc rework on hugetlb faulting path" (Oscar Salvador)
fixes a rather obscure deadlock in the hugetlb fault code and
follows that fix with a series of cleanups.
"cma: factor out allocation logic from __cma_declare_contiguous_nid" (Mike Rapoport)
rationalizes and cleans up the highmem-specific code in the CMA
allocator.
"mm/migration: rework movable_ops page migration (part 1)" (David Hildenbrand)
provides cleanups and future-preparedness to the migration code.
"mm/damon: add trace events for auto-tuned monitoring intervals and DAMOS quota" (SeongJae Park)
adds some tracepoints to some DAMON auto-tuning code.
"mm/damon: fix misc bugs in DAMON modules" (SeongJae Park)
does that.
"mm/damon: misc cleanups" (SeongJae Park)
also does what it claims.
"mm: folio_pte_batch() improvements" (David Hildenbrand)
cleans up the large folio PTE batching code.
"mm/damon/vaddr: Allow interleaving in migrate_{hot,cold} actions" (SeongJae Park)
facilitates dynamic alteration of DAMON's inter-node allocation
policy.
"Remove unmap_and_put_page()" (Vishal Moola)
provides a couple of page->folio conversions.
"mm: per-node proactive reclaim" (Davidlohr Bueso)
implements a per-node control of proactive reclaim - beyond the
current memcg-based implementation.
"mm/damon: remove damon_callback" (SeongJae Park)
replaces the damon_callback interface with a more general and
powerful damon_call()+damos_walk() interface.
"mm/mremap: permit mremap() move of multiple VMAs" (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.
"drop hugetlb_free_pgd_range()" (Anthony Yznaga)
switches some sparc hugetlb code over to the generic version and
removes the thus-unneeded hugetlb_free_pgd_range().
"mm/damon/sysfs: support periodic and automated stats update" (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.
"Some randome fixes and cleanups to swapfile" (Kemeng Shi)
does what is claims.
"mm: introduce snapshot_page" (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.
"use per-vma locks for /proc/pid/maps reads" (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.
"__folio_split() clean up" (Zi Yan)
cleans up __folio_split()!
"Optimize mprotect() for large folios" (Dev Jain)
provides some quite large (>3x) speedups to mprotect() when dealing
with large folios.
"selftests/mm: reuse FORCE_READ to replace "asm volatile("" : "+r" (XXX));" and some cleanup" (wang lian)
does some cleanup work in the selftests code.
"tools/testing: expand mremap testing" (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.
"selftests/damon/sysfs.py: test all parameters" (SeongJae Park)
extends the DAMON sysfs interface selftest so that it tests all
possible user-requested parameters. Rather than the present minimal
subset"
