- "Live Update Orchestrator" (Pasha Tatashin)
is a major new feature targeted at cloud environments. Quoting the
cover letter:
This series introduces the Live Update Orchestrator, a kernel
subsystem designed to facilitate live kernel updates using a
kexec-based reboot. This capability is critical for cloud
environments, allowing hypervisors to be updated with minimal
downtime for running virtual machines. LUO achieves this by
preserving the state of selected resources, such as memory,
devices and their dependencies, across the kernel transition.
As a key feature, this series includes support for preserving
memfd file descriptors, which allows critical in-memory data, such
as guest RAM or any other large memory region, to be maintained in
RAM across the kexec reboot.
Mike Rappaport merits a mention here, for his extensive review and
testing work.

The ability to preserve a memfd allows userspace to use KHO and LUO to
transfer its memory contents to the next kernel. This is useful in many
ways. For one, it can be used with IOMMUFD as the backing store for IOMMU
page tables. Preserving IOMMUFD is essential for performing a hypervisor
live update with passthrough devices. memfd support provides the first
building block for making that possible.
For another, applications with a large amount of memory that takes time to
reconstruct, reboots to consume kernel upgrades can be very expensive.
memfd with LUO gives those applications reboot-persistent memory that they
can use to quickly save and reconstruct that state.
While memfd is backed by either hugetlbfs or shmem, currently only support
on shmem is added. To be more precise, support for anonymous shmem files
is added.
The handover to the next kernel is not transparent. All the properties of
the file are not preserved; only its memory contents, position, and size.
The recreated file gets the UID and GID of the task doing the restore, and
the task's cgroup gets charged with the memory.
Once preserved, the file cannot grow or shrink, and all its pages are
pinned to avoid migrations and swapping. The file can still be read from
or written to.
Use vmalloc to get the buffer to hold the folios, and preserve it using
kho_preserve_vmalloc(). This doesn't have the size limit.

Following the extraction of sysfs code, this patch moves the sysctl
interface implementation into a dedicated file to further improve code
organization and maintainability of the hugetlb subsystem.
The following components are moved to mm/hugetlb_sysctl.c:
- proc_hugetlb_doulongvec_minmax()
- hugetlb_sysctl_handler_common()
- hugetlb_sysctl_handler()
- hugetlb_mempolicy_sysctl_handler() (CONFIG_NUMA)
- hugetlb_overcommit_handler()
- hugetlb_table[] sysctl table definition
- hugetlb_sysctl_init()
The hugetlb_internal.h header file is updated to declare the sysctl
initialization function with proper #ifdef guards for configurations
without CONFIG_SYSCTL support.
The Makefile is updated to compile hugetlb_sysctl.o when CONFIG_HUGETLBFS
is enabled. This refactoring reduces the size of hugetlb.c and logically
separates the sysctl interface from core hugetlb management code.
MAINTAINERS is updated to add new file hugetlb_sysctl.c.
No functional changes are introduced; all code is moved as-is from
hugetlb.c with consistent formatting.

Patch series "mm/hugetlb: refactor sysfs/sysctl interfaces", v5.
hugetlb.c has grown significantly and become difficult to maintain. This
patch series extracts the sysfs and sysctl interface code into separate
dedicated files to improve code organization.
The refactoring includes:
- Patch 1: Extract sysfs interface into mm/hugetlb_sysfs.c
- Patch 2: Extract sysctl interface into mm/hugetlb_sysctl.c
No functional changes are introduced in this series. The code is moved
as-is, with only minor formatting adjustments for code style consistency.
This should make future maintenance and enhancements to the hugetlb
subsystem easier.
Testing: The patch series has been compile-tested and maintains the same
functionality as the original code.
This patch (of 2):
Currently, hugetlb.c contains both core management logic and sysfs
interface implementations, making it difficult to maintain. This patch
extracts the sysfs-related code into a dedicated file to improve code
organization.
The following components are moved to mm/hugetlb_sysfs.c:
- sysfs attribute definitions and handlers
- sysfs kobject management functions
- NUMA per-node hstate attribute registration
Several inline helper functions and macros are moved to
mm/hugetlb_internal.h:
- hstate_is_gigantic_no_runtime()
- next_node_allowed()
- get_valid_node_allowed()
- hstate_next_node_to_alloc()
- hstate_next_node_to_free()
- for_each_node_mask_to_alloc/to_free macros
To support code sharing, these functions are changed from static to
exported symbols:
- remove_hugetlb_folio()
- add_hugetlb_folio()
- init_new_hugetlb_folio()
- prep_and_add_allocated_folios()
- demote_pool_huge_page()
- __nr_hugepages_store_common()
The Makefile is updated to compile hugetlb_sysfs.o when CONFIG_HUGETLBFS
is enabled. This maintains all existing functionality while improving
maintainability by separating concerns.
MAINTAINERS is updated to add new file hugetlb_sysfs.c.

With zswap using zsmalloc directly, there are no more in-tree users of
this code. Remove it.
With zpool gone, zsmalloc is now always a simple dependency and no
longer something the user needs to configure. Hide CONFIG_ZSMALLOC
from the user and have zswap and zram pull it in as needed.

Right now these are performed in kernel/fork.c which is odd and a
violation of separation of concerns, as well as preventing us from
integrating this and related logic into userland VMA testing going
forward.
There is a fly in the ointment - nommu - mmap.c is not compiled if
CONFIG_MMU not set, and neither is vma.c.
To square the circle, let's add a new file - vma_init.c. This will be
compiled for both CONFIG_MMU and nommu builds, and will also form part of
the VMA userland testing.
This allows us to de-duplicate code, while maintaining separation of
concerns and the ability for us to userland test this logic.
Update the VMA userland tests accordingly, additionally adding a
detach_free_vma() helper function to correctly detach VMAs before freeing
them in test code, as this change was triggering the assert for this.

Patch series "move all VMA allocation, freeing and duplication logic to
mm", v3.
Currently VMA allocation, freeing and duplication exist in kernel/fork.c,
which is a violation of separation of concerns, and leaves these functions
exposed to the rest of the kernel when they are in fact internal
implementation details.
Resolve this by moving this logic to mm, and making it internal to vma.c,
vma.h.
This also allows us, in future, to provide userland testing around this
functionality.
We additionally abstract dup_mmap() to mm, being careful to ensure
kernel/fork.c acceses this via the mm internal header so it is not exposed
elsewhere in the kernel.
As part of this change, also abstract initial stack allocation performed
in __bprm_mm_init() out of fs code into mm via the
create_init_stack_vma(), as this code uses vm_area_alloc() and
vm_area_free().
In order to do so sensibly, we introduce a new mm/vma_exec.c file, which
contains the code that is shared by mm and exec. This file is added to
both memory mapping and exec sections in MAINTAINERS so both sets of
maintainers can maintain oversight.
As part of this change, we also move relocate_vma_down() to mm/vma_exec.c
so all shared mm/exec functionality is kept in one place.
We add code shared between nommu and mmu-enabled configurations in order
to share VMA allocation, freeing and duplication code correctly while also
keeping these functions available in userland VMA testing.
This is achieved by adding a mm/vma_init.c file which is also compiled by
the userland tests.
This patch (of 4):
There is functionality that overlaps the exec and memory mapping
subsystems. While it properly belongs in mm, it is important that exec
maintainers maintain oversight of this functionality correctly.
We can establish both goals by adding a new mm/vma_exec.c file which
contains these 'glue' functions, and have fs/exec.c import them.
As a part of this change, to ensure that proper oversight is achieved, add
the file to both the MEMORY MAPPING and EXEC & BINFMT API, ELF sections.
scripts/get_maintainer.pl can correctly handle files in multiple entries
and this neatly handles the cross-over.

Platforms subscribe into generic ptdump implementation via GENERIC_PTDUMP.
But generic ptdump gets enabled via PTDUMP_CORE. These configs
combination is confusing as they sound very similar and does not
differentiate between platform's feature subscription and feature
enablement for ptdump. Rename the configs as ARCH_HAS_PTDUMP and PTDUMP
making it more clear and improve readability.

The zbud compressed pages allocator is rarely used, most users use
zsmalloc. zbud consumes much more memory (only stores 1 or 2 compressed
pages per physical page). The only advantage of zbud is a marginal
performance improvement that by no means justify the memory overhead.
Historically, zsmalloc had significantly worse latency than zbud and
z3fold but offered better memory savings. This is no longer the case as
shown by a simple recent analysis [1]. In a kernel build test on tmpfs in
a limited cgroup, zbud 2-3% less time than zsmalloc, but at the cost of
using ~32% more memory (1.5G vs 1.13G). The tradeoff does not make sense
for zbud in any practical scenario.
The only alleged advantage of zbud is not having the dependency on
CONFIG_MMU, but CONFIG_SWAP already depends on CONFIG_MMU anyway, and zbud
is only used by zswap.
Remove zbud after z3fold's removal, leaving zsmalloc as the one and only
zpool allocator. Leave the removal of the zpool API (and its associated
config options) to a followup cleanup after no more allocators show up.
Deprecating zbud for a few cycles before removing it was initially
proposed [2], like z3fold was marked as deprecated for 2 cycles [3].
However, Johannes rightfully pointed out that the 2 cycles is too short
for most downstream consumers, and z3fold was deprecated first only as a

Patch series "mm: zswap: remove z3fold and zbud", v2.
After 2 cycles of deprecating z3fold, remove it as well as zbud (rationale
in specific patches).
This patch (of 2):
Z3fold has been marked as deprecated for 2 cycles and no one complained,
as expected. As there are no known users, remove the code now.

Now in order to pursue high performance, applications mostly use some
high-performance user-mode memory allocators, such as jemalloc or
tcmalloc. These memory allocators use madvise(MADV_DONTNEED or MADV_FREE)
to release physical memory, but neither MADV_DONTNEED nor MADV_FREE will
release page table memory, which may cause huge page table memory usage.
The following are a memory usage snapshot of one process which actually
happened on our server:
VIRT: 55t
RES: 590g
VmPTE: 110g
In this case, most of the page table entries are empty. For such a PTE
page where all entries are empty, we can actually free it back to the
system for others to use.
As a first step, this commit aims to synchronously free the empty PTE
pages in madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) case. We will detect and free empty PTE
pages in zap_pte_range(), and will add zap_details.reclaim_pt to exclude
cases other than madvise(MADV_DONTNEED).
Once an empty PTE is detected, we first try to hold the pmd lock within
the pte lock. If successful, we clear the pmd entry directly (fast path).
Otherwise, we wait until the pte lock is released, then re-hold the pmd
and pte locks and loop PTRS_PER_PTE times to check pte_none() to re-detect
whether the PTE page is empty and free it (slow path).
For other cases such as madvise(MADV_FREE), consider scanning and freeing
empty PTE pages asynchronously in the future.
The following code snippet can show the effect of optimization:
mmap 50G
while (1) {
for (; i < 1024 * 25; i++) {
touch 2M memory
madvise MADV_DONTNEED 2M
}
}
As we can see, the memory usage of VmPTE is reduced:
before after

Inspired by [1], move the page fragment allocator from page_alloc
into its own c file and header file, as we are about to make more
change for it to replace another page_frag implementation in
sock.c
As this patchset is going to replace 'struct page_frag' with
'struct page_frag_cache' in sched.h, including page_frag_cache.h
in sched.h has a compiler error caused by interdependence between
mm_types.h and mm.h for asm-offsets.c, see [2]. So avoid the compiler
error by moving 'struct page_frag_cache' to mm_types_task.h as
suggested by Alexander, see [3].

Patch series "mm: introduce numa_memblks", v4.
Following the discussion about handling of CXL fixed memory windows on
arm64 [1] I decided to bite the bullet and move numa_memblks from x86 to
the generic code so they will be available on arm64/riscv and maybe on
loongarch sometime later.
While it could be possible to use memblock to describe CXL memory windows,
it currently lacks notion of unpopulated memory ranges and numa_memblks
does implement this.
Another reason to make numa_memblks generic is that both arch_numa (arm64
and riscv) and loongarch use trimmed copy of x86 code although there is no
fundamental reason why the same code cannot be used on all these
platforms. Having numa_memblks in mm/ will make it's interaction with
ACPI and FDT more consistent and I believe will reduce maintenance burden.
And with generic numa_memblks it is (almost) straightforward to enable
NUMA emulation on arm64 and riscv.
The first 9 commits in this series are cleanups that are not strictly
related to numa_memblks.
Commits 10-16 slightly reorder code in x86 to allow extracting numa_memblks
and NUMA emulation to the generic code.
Commits 17-19 actually move the code from arch/x86/ to mm/ and commits 20-22
does some aftermath cleanups.
Commit 23 updates of_numa_init() to return error of no NUMA nodes were
found in the device tree.
Commit 24 switches arch_numa to numa_memblks.
Commit 25 enables usage of phys_to_target_node() and
memory_add_physaddr_to_nid() with numa_memblks.
Commit 26 moves the description for numa=fake from x86 to admin-guide.

This patch introduces vma.c and moves internal core VMA manipulation
functions to this file from mmap.c.
This allows us to isolate VMA functionality in a single place such that we
can create userspace testing code that invokes this functionality in an
environment where we can implement simple unit tests of core
functionality.
This patch ensures that core VMA functionality is explicitly marked as
such by its presence in mm/vma.h.
It also places the header includes required by vma.c in vma_internal.h,
which is simply imported by vma.c. This makes the VMA functionality
testable, as userland testing code can simply stub out functionality as
required.

Put legacy cgroup v1 memory controller code under a new CONFIG_MEMCG_V1
config option. The option is turned off by default. Nobody except those
who are still using cgroup v1 should turn it on.
If the option is not set, memory controller can still be mounted under
cgroup v1, but none of memcg-specific control files are present.
Please note, that not all cgroup v1's memory controller code is guarded
yet (but most of it), it's a subject for some follow-up work.
Thanks to Michal Hocko for providing a better Kconfig option description.

Patch series "mm: memcg: separate legacy cgroup v1 code and put under
config option", v2.
Cgroups v2 have been around for a while and many users have fully adopted
them, so they never use cgroups v1 features and functionality. Yet they
have to "pay" for the cgroup v1 support anyway:
1) the kernel binary contains an unused cgroup v1 code,
2) some code paths have additional checks which are not needed,
3) some common structures like task_struct and mem_cgroup contain unused
cgroup v1-specific members.
Cgroup v1's memory controller has a number of features that are not
supported by cgroup v2 and their implementation is pretty much self
contained. Most notably, these features are: soft limit reclaim, oom
handling in userspace, complicated event notification system, charge
migration. Cgroup v1-specific code in memcontrol.c is close to 4k lines
in size and it's intervened with generic and cgroup v2-specific code.
It's a burden on developers and maintainers.
This patchset aims to solve these problems by:
1) moving cgroup v1-specific memcg code to the new mm/memcontrol-v1.c file,
2) putting definitions shared by memcontrol.c and memcontrol-v1.c into the
mm/memcontrol-v1.h header,
3) introducing the CONFIG_MEMCG_V1 config option, turned off by default,
4) making memcontrol-v1.c to compile only if CONFIG_MEMCG_V1 is set.
If CONFIG_MEMCG_V1 is not set, cgroup v1 memory controller is still available
for mounting, however no memory-specific control knobs are present.
This patch (of 14):
This patch introduces the mm/memcontrol-v1.c source file which will be
used for all legacy (cgroup v1) memory cgroup code. It also introduces
mm/memcontrol-v1.h to keep declarations shared between mm/memcontrol.c and
mm/memcontrol-v1.c.
As of now, let's compile it if CONFIG_MEMCG is set, similar to
mm/memcontrol.c. Later on it can be switched to use a separate config
option, so that the legacy code won't be compiled if not required.

The new mseal() is an syscall on 64 bit CPU, and with following signature:
int mseal(void addr, size_t len, unsigned long flags)
addr/len: memory range.
flags: reserved.
mseal() blocks following operations for the given memory range.
1> Unmapping, moving to another location, and shrinking the size,
via munmap() and mremap(), can leave an empty space, therefore can
be replaced with a VMA with a new set of attributes.
2> Moving or expanding a different VMA into the current location,
via mremap().
3> Modifying a VMA via mmap(MAP_FIXED).
4> Size expansion, via mremap(), does not appear to pose any specific
risks to sealed VMAs. It is included anyway because the use case is
unclear. In any case, users can rely on merging to expand a sealed VMA.
5> mprotect() and pkey_mprotect().
6> Some destructive madvice() behaviors (e.g. MADV_DONTNEED) for anonymous
memory, when users don't have write permission to the memory. Those
behaviors can alter region contents by discarding pages, effectively a
memset(0) for anonymous memory.
Following input during RFC are incooperated into this patch:
Jann Horn: raising awareness and providing valuable insights on the
destructive madvise operations.
Linus Torvalds: assisting in defining system call signature and scope.
Liam R. Howlett: perf optimization.
Theo de Raadt: sharing the experiences and insight gained from
implementing mimmutable() in OpenBSD.
Finally, the idea that inspired this patch comes from Stephen Röttger's
work in Chrome V8 CFI.

module_alloc() is used everywhere as a mean to allocate memory for code.
Beside being semantically wrong, this unnecessarily ties all subsystems
that need to allocate code, such as ftrace, kprobes and BPF to modules and
puts the burden of code allocation to the modules code.
Several architectures override module_alloc() because of various
constraints where the executable memory can be located and this causes
additional obstacles for improvements of code allocation.
Start splitting code allocation from modules by introducing execmem_alloc()
and execmem_free() APIs.
Initially, execmem_alloc() is a wrapper for module_alloc() and
execmem_free() is a replacement of module_memfree() to allow updating all
call sites to use the new APIs.
Since architectures define different restrictions on placement,
permissions, alignment and other parameters for memory that can be used by
different subsystems that allocate executable memory, execmem_alloc() takes
a type argument, that will be used to identify the calling subsystem and to
allow architectures define parameters for ranges suitable for that
subsystem.
No functional changes.

Kmemleak ia a memory leak checker. KASAN is also a memory checker but it
focuses more on finding out-of-bounds and use-after-free bugs. Since
kmemleak is inherently slow especially on systems with large number of
CPUs, adding KASAN instrumentation will make it slower even more. As
kmemleak is not for production use, the utility of enabling KASAN there is
questionable.
This patch disables KASAN instrumentation for configurations that enable
both of them to slightly reduce performance overhead.

The -Woverride-init warn about code that may be intentional or not,
but the inintentional ones tend to be real bugs, so there is a bit of
disagreement on whether this warning option should be enabled by default
and we have multiple settings in scripts/Makefile.extrawarn as well as
individual subsystems.
Older versions of clang only supported -Wno-initializer-overrides with
the same meaning as gcc's -Woverride-init, though all supported versions
now work with both. Because of this difference, an earlier cleanup of
mine accidentally turned the clang warning off for W=1 builds and only
left it on for W=2, while it's still enabled for gcc with W=1.
There is also one driver that only turns the warning off for newer
versions of gcc but not other compilers, and some but not all the
Makefiles still use a cc-disable-warning conditional that is no
longer needed with supported compilers here.
Address all of the above by removing the special cases for clang
and always turning the warning off unconditionally where it got
in the way, using the syntax that is supported by both compilers.

Remove CONFIG_SLAB, CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB, CONFIG_SLAB_DEPRECATED and
everything in Kconfig files and mm/Makefile that depends on those. Since
SLUB is the only remaining allocator, remove the allocator choice, make
CONFIG_SLUB a "def_bool y" for now and remove all explicit dependencies
on SLUB or SLAB as it's now always enabled. Make every option's verbose
name and description refer to "the slab allocator" without refering to
the specific implementation. Do not rename the CONFIG_ option names yet.
Everything under #ifdef CONFIG_SLAB, and mm/slab.c is now dead code, all
code under #ifdef CONFIG_SLUB is now always compiled.

Patch series "dmapool enhancements", v4.
Time spent in dma_pool alloc/free increases linearly with the number of
pages backing the pool. We can reduce this to constant time with minor
changes to how free pages are tracked.
This patch (of 12):
Provide a module that allocates and frees many blocks of various sizes and
report how long it takes. This is intended to provide a consistent way to
measure how changes to the dma_pool_alloc/free routines affect timing.

For each memory location KernelMemorySanitizer maintains two types of
metadata:
1. The so-called shadow of that location - а byte:byte mapping describing
whether or not individual bits of memory are initialized (shadow is 0)
or not (shadow is 1).
2. The origins of that location - а 4-byte:4-byte mapping containing
4-byte IDs of the stack traces where uninitialized values were
created.
Each struct page now contains pointers to two struct pages holding KMSAN
metadata (shadow and origins) for the original struct page. Utility
routines in mm/kmsan/core.c and mm/kmsan/shadow.c handle the metadata
creation, addressing, copying and checking. mm/kmsan/report.c performs
error reporting in the cases an uninitialized value is used in a way that
leads to undefined behavior.
KMSAN compiler instrumentation is responsible for tracking the metadata
along with the kernel memory. mm/kmsan/instrumentation.c provides the
implementation for instrumentation hooks that are called from files
compiled with -fsanitize=kernel-memory.
To aid parameter passing (also done at instrumentation level), each
task_struct now contains a struct kmsan_task_state used to track the
metadata of function parameters and return values for that task.
Finally, this patch provides CONFIG_KMSAN that enables KMSAN, and declares
CFLAGS_KMSAN, which are applied to files compiled with KMSAN. The
KMSAN_SANITIZE:=n Makefile directive can be used to completely disable
KMSAN instrumentation for certain files.
Similarly, KMSAN_ENABLE_CHECKS:=n disables KMSAN checks and makes newly
created stack memory initialized.
Users can also use functions from include/linux/kmsan-checks.h to mark
certain memory regions as uninitialized or initialized (this is called
"poisoning" and "unpoisoning") or check that a particular region is
initialized.

Patch series "mm/demotion: Memory tiers and demotion", v15.
The current kernel has the basic memory tiering support: Inactive pages on
a higher tier NUMA node can be migrated (demoted) to a lower tier NUMA
node to make room for new allocations on the higher tier NUMA node.
Frequently accessed pages on a lower tier NUMA node can be migrated
(promoted) to a higher tier NUMA node to improve the performance.
In the current kernel, memory tiers are defined implicitly via a demotion
path relationship between NUMA nodes, which is created during the kernel
initialization and updated when a NUMA node is hot-added or hot-removed.
The current implementation puts all nodes with CPU into the highest tier,
and builds the tier hierarchy tier-by-tier by establishing the per-node
demotion targets based on the distances between nodes.
This current memory tier kernel implementation needs to be improved for
several important use cases:
* The current tier initialization code always initializes each
memory-only NUMA node into a lower tier. But a memory-only NUMA node
may have a high performance memory device (e.g. a DRAM-backed
memory-only node on a virtual machine) and that should be put into a
higher tier.
* The current tier hierarchy always puts CPU nodes into the top tier.
But on a system with HBM (e.g. GPU memory) devices, these memory-only
HBM NUMA nodes should be in the top tier, and DRAM nodes with CPUs are
better to be placed into the next lower tier.
* Also because the current tier hierarchy always puts CPU nodes into the
top tier, when a CPU is hot-added (or hot-removed) and triggers a memory
node from CPU-less into a CPU node (or vice versa), the memory tier
hierarchy gets changed, even though no memory node is added or removed.
This can make the tier hierarchy unstable and make it difficult to
support tier-based memory accounting.
* A higher tier node can only be demoted to nodes with shortest distance
on the next lower tier as defined by the demotion path, not any other
node from any lower tier. This strict, demotion order does not work in
all use cases (e.g. some use cases may want to allow cross-socket
demotion to another node in the same demotion tier as a fallback when
the preferred demotion node is out of space), and has resulted in the
feature request for an interface to override the system-wide, per-node
demotion order from the userspace. This demotion order is also
inconsistent with the page allocation fallback order when all the nodes
in a higher tier are out of space: The page allocation can fall back to
any node from any lower tier, whereas the demotion order doesn't allow
that.
This patch series make the creation of memory tiers explicit under the
control of device driver.
Memory Tier Initialization
==========================
Linux kernel presents memory devices as NUMA nodes and each memory device
is of a specific type. The memory type of a device is represented by its
abstract distance. A memory tier corresponds to a range of abstract
distance. This allows for classifying memory devices with a specific
performance range into a memory tier.
By default, all memory nodes are assigned to the default tier with
abstract distance 512.
A device driver can move its memory nodes from the default tier. For
example, PMEM can move its memory nodes below the default tier, whereas
GPU can move its memory nodes above the default tier.
The kernel initialization code makes the decision on which exact tier a
memory node should be assigned to based on the requests from the device
drivers as well as the memory device hardware information provided by the
firmware.
Hot-adding/removing CPUs doesn't affect memory tier hierarchy.
This patch (of 10):
In the current kernel, memory tiers are defined implicitly via a demotion
path relationship between NUMA nodes, which is created during the kernel
initialization and updated when a NUMA node is hot-added or hot-removed.
The current implementation puts all nodes with CPU into the highest tier,
and builds the tier hierarchy by establishing the per-node demotion
targets based on the distances between nodes.
This current memory tier kernel implementation needs to be improved for
several important use cases,
The current tier initialization code always initializes each memory-only
NUMA node into a lower tier. But a memory-only NUMA node may have a high
performance memory device (e.g. a DRAM-backed memory-only node on a
virtual machine) that should be put into a higher tier.
The current tier hierarchy always puts CPU nodes into the top tier. But
on a system with HBM or GPU devices, the memory-only NUMA nodes mapping
these devices should be in the top tier, and DRAM nodes with CPUs are
better to be placed into the next lower tier.
With current kernel higher tier node can only be demoted to nodes with
shortest distance on the next lower tier as defined by the demotion path,
not any other node from any lower tier. This strict, demotion order does
not work in all use cases (e.g. some use cases may want to allow
cross-socket demotion to another node in the same demotion tier as a
fallback when the preferred demotion node is out of space), This demotion
order is also inconsistent with the page allocation fallback order when
all the nodes in a higher tier are out of space: The page allocation can
fall back to any node from any lower tier, whereas the demotion order
doesn't allow that.
This patch series address the above by defining memory tiers explicitly.
Linux kernel presents memory devices as NUMA nodes and each memory device
is of a specific type. The memory type of a device is represented by its
abstract distance. A memory tier corresponds to a range of abstract
distance. This allows for classifying memory devices with a specific
performance range into a memory tier.
This patch configures the range/chunk size to be 128. The default DRAM
abstract distance is 512. We can have 4 memory tiers below the default
DRAM with abstract distance range 0 - 127, 127 - 255, 256- 383, 384 - 511.
Faster memory devices can be placed in these faster(higher) memory tiers.
Slower memory devices like persistent memory will have abstract distance
higher than the default DRAM level.

This commit introduces the /sys/kernel/debug/shrinker debugfs interface
which provides an ability to observe the state of individual kernel memory
shrinkers.
Because the feature adds some memory overhead (which shouldn't be large
unless there is a huge amount of registered shrinkers), it's guarded by a
config option (enabled by default).
This commit introduces the "count" interface for each shrinker registered
in the system.
The output is in the following format:
<cgroup inode id> <nr of objects on node 0> <nr of objects on node 1>...
<cgroup inode id> <nr of objects on node 0> <nr of objects on node 1>...
...
To reduce the size of output on machines with many thousands cgroups, if
the total number of objects on all nodes is 0, the line is omitted.
If the shrinker is not memcg-aware or CONFIG_MEMCG is off, 0 is printed as
cgroup inode id. If the shrinker is not numa-aware, 0's are printed for
all nodes except the first one.
This commit gives debugfs entries simple numeric names, which are not very
convenient. The following commit in the series will provide shrinkers
with more meaningful names.

Patch series "remove Xen tmem leftovers".
Since the removal of the Xen tmem driver in 2019, the cleancache hooks
are entirely unused, as are large parts of frontswap. This series
against linux-next (with the folio changes included) removes
cleancaches, and cuts down frontswap to the bits actually used by zswap.
This patch (of 13):
The cleancache subsystem is unused since the removal of Xen tmem driver
in commit 814bbf49dcd0 ("xen: remove tmem driver").

Check user page table entries at the time they are added and removed.
Allows to synchronously catch memory corruption issues related to double
mapping.
When a pte for an anonymous page is added into page table, we verify
that this pte does not already point to a file backed page, and vice
versa if this is a file backed page that is being added we verify that
this page does not have an anonymous mapping
We also enforce that read-only sharing for anonymous pages is allowed
(i.e. cow after fork). All other sharing must be for file pages.
Page table check allows to protect and debug cases where "struct page"
metadata became corrupted for some reason. For example, when refcnt or
mapcount become invalid.

Some memory management calls imply memory barriers that are required to
avoid false positives. For example, without the correct instrumentation,
we could observe data races of the following variant:
T0 | T1
------------------------+------------------------
|
*a = 42; ---+ |
kfree(a); | |
| | b = kmalloc(..); // b == a
<reordered> <-+ | *b = 42; // not a data race!
|
Therefore, instrument memory barriers in all allocator code currently
not being instrumented in a default build.

These are the folio equivalent of page_mapping() and page_file_mapping().
Add an out-of-line page_mapping() wrapper around folio_mapping()
in order to prevent the page_folio() call from bloating every caller
of page_mapping(). Adjust page_file_mapping() and page_mapping_file()
to use folios internally. Rename __page_file_mapping() to
swapcache_mapping() and change it to take a folio.
This ends up saving 122 bytes of text overall. folio_mapping() is
45 bytes shorter than page_mapping() was, but the new page_mapping()
wrapper is 30 bytes. The major reduction is a few bytes less in dozens
of nfs functions (which call page_file_mapping()). Most of these appear
to be a slight change in gcc's register allocation decisions, which allow:
48 8b 56 08 mov 0x8(%rsi),%rdx
48 8d 42 ff lea -0x1(%rdx),%rax
83 e2 01 and $0x1,%edx
48 0f 44 c6 cmove %rsi,%rax
to become:
48 8b 46 08 mov 0x8(%rsi),%rax
48 8d 78 ff lea -0x1(%rax),%rdi
a8 01 test $0x1,%al
48 0f 44 fe cmove %rsi,%rdi
for a reduction of a single byte. Once the NFS client is converted to
use folios, this entire sequence will disappear.
Also add folio_mapping() documentation.
