We don't need up-to-date accessed-dirty information for anon folios and
can simply work with the ptent we already have. Also, we know the RSS
counter we want to update.
We can safely move arch_check_zapped_pte() + tlb_remove_tlb_entry() +
zap_install_uffd_wp_if_needed() after updating the folio and RSS.
While at it, only call zap_install_uffd_wp_if_needed() if there is even
any chance that pte_install_uffd_wp_if_needed() would do *something*.
That is, just don't bother if uffd-wp does not apply.

We don't need uptodate accessed/dirty bits, so in theory we could replace
ptep_get_and_clear_full() by an optimized ptep_clear_full() function.
Let's rely on the provided pte.
Further, there is no scenario where we would have to insert uffd-wp
markers when zapping something that is not a normal page (i.e., zeropage).
Add a sanity check to make sure this remains true.
should_zap_folio() no longer has to handle NULL pointers. This change
replaces 2/3 "!page/!folio" checks by a single "!page" one.
Note that arch_check_zapped_pte() on x86-64 checks the HW-dirty bit to
detect shadow stack entries. But for shadow stack entries, the HW dirty
bit (in combination with non-writable PTEs) is set by software. So for
the arch_check_zapped_pte() check, we don't have to sync against HW
setting the HW dirty bit concurrently, it is always set.

Patch series "mm/memory: optimize unmap/zap with PTE-mapped THP", v3.
This series is based on [1]. Similar to what we did with fork(), let's
implement PTE batching during unmap/zap when processing PTE-mapped THPs.
We collect consecutive PTEs that map consecutive pages of the same large
folio, making sure that the other PTE bits are compatible, and (a) adjust
the refcount only once per batch, (b) call rmap handling functions only
once per batch, (c) perform batch PTE setting/updates and (d) perform TLB
entry removal once per batch.
Ryan was previously working on this in the context of cont-pte for arm64,
int latest iteration [2] with a focus on arm6 with cont-pte only. This
series implements the optimization for all architectures, independent of
such PTE bits, teaches MMU gather/TLB code to be fully aware of such
large-folio-pages batches as well, and amkes use of our new rmap batching
function when removing the rmap.
To achieve that, we have to enlighten MMU gather / page freeing code
(i.e., everything that consumes encoded_page) to process unmapping of
consecutive pages that all belong to the same large folio. I'm being very
careful to not degrade order-0 performance, and it looks like I managed to
achieve that.
While this series should -- similar to [1] -- be beneficial for adding
cont-pte support on arm64[2], it's one of the requirements for maintaining
a total mapcount[3] for large folios with minimal added overhead and
further changes[4] that build up on top of the total mapcount.
Independent of all that, this series results in a speedup during munmap()
and similar unmapping (process teardown, MADV_DONTNEED on larger ranges)
with PTE-mapped THP, which is the default with THPs that are smaller than
a PMD (for example, 16KiB to 1024KiB mTHPs for anonymous memory[5]).
On an Intel Xeon Silver 4210R CPU, munmap'ing a 1GiB VMA backed by
PTE-mapped folios of the same size (stddev < 1%) results in the following
runtimes for munmap() in seconds (shorter is better):
Folio Size | mm-unstable | New | Change
---------------------------------------------
4KiB | 0.058110 | 0.057715 | - 1%
16KiB | 0.044198 | 0.035469 | -20%

It can not improve the fragmentation if we isolate the target free pages
exceeding cc->order, especially when the cc->order is less than
pageblock_order. For example, suppose the pageblock_order is MAX_ORDER
(size is 4M) and cc->order is 2M THP size, we should not isolate other 2M
free pages to be the migration target, which can not improve the
fragmentation.
Moreover this is also applicable for large folio compaction.

We may encounter duplicate entry in the zswap_store():
1. swap slot that freed to per-cpu swap cache, doesn't invalidate
the zswap entry, then got reused. This has been fixed.
2. !exclusive load mode, swapin folio will leave its zswap entry
on the tree, then swapout again. This has been removed.
3. one folio can be dirtied again after zswap_store(), so need to
zswap_store() again. This should be handled correctly.
So we must invalidate the old duplicate entry before inserting the
new one, which actually doesn't have to be done at the beginning
of zswap_store().
The good point is that we don't need to lock the tree twice in the normal
store success path. And cleanup the loop as we are here.
Note we still need to invalidate the old duplicate entry when store failed
or zswap is disabled , otherwise the new data in swapfile could be
overwrite by the old data in zswap pool when lru writeback.

/sys/kernel/mm/cma/<cma-heap-area>/release_pages_success
After this change, an user will be able to find active CMA pages available

Active pages = alloc_pages_success - release_pages_success
That's valuable information for both software designers, and system admins

Currently, when a demotion occurs, it will prioritize selecting a node
from the preferred targets as the destination node for the demotion. If
the preferred node does not meet the requirements, it will try from all
the lower memory tier nodes until it finds a suitable demotion destination
node or ultimately fails.
However, the demotion target information isn't exposed to the users,
especially the preferred target information, which relies on more factors.
This makes it hard for users to understand the exact demotion behavior.
Rather than having a new sysfs interface to expose this information,
printing directly to kernel messages, just like the current page
allocation fallback order does.
A dmesg example with this patch is as follows:

Regarding this requirement, we have previously discussed [1]. The initial

Therefore, this time, we are directly printing out the information.

DAMON sysfs interface need to access kdamond-touching data for some of
kdamond user commands. It uses ->after_aggregation() kdamond callback to
safely access the data in the case. It had to use the aggregation
interval callback because that was the only callback that users can access
complete monitoring results.
Since patch series "mm/damon: provide pseudo-moving sum based access
rate", which starts from commit 78fbfb155d20 ("mm/damon/core: define and
use a dedicated function for region access rate update"), DAMON provides
good-to-use quality moitoring results for every sampling interval. It
aims to help users who need to quickly retrieve the monitoring results.
When the aggregation interval is set too long and therefore waiting for
the aggregation interval can degrade user experience, or when the access
pattern is expected to be significantly changed[1] could be such cases.
However, because DAMON sysfs interface is still handling the commands per
aggregation interval, the end user cannot get the benefit. Update DAMON
sysfs interface to handle kdamond commands for every sampling interval if
applicable. Specifically, all kdamond data accessing commands except
'commit' command are applicable.

alloc_and_dissolve_hugetlb_folio() preallocates a new hugetlb page before
it takes hugetlb_lock. In 3 out of 4 cases the page is not really used
and therefore the newly allocated page is just freed right away. This is
wasteful and it might cause pre-mature failures in those cases.
Address that by moving the allocation down to the only case (hugetlb page
is really in the free pages pool). We need to drop hugetlb_lock to do so
and therefore need to recheck the page state after regaining it.
The patch is more of a cleanup than an actual fix to an existing problem.
There are no known reports about pre-mature failures.

By definition of soft-dirty feature, there can be spurious soft-dirty

Since we don't need to leave zswap entry on the zswap tree anymore,
we should remove it from tree once we find it from the tree.
Then after using it, we can directly free it, no concurrent path
can find it from tree. Only the shrinker can see it from lru list,
which will also double check under tree lock, so no race problem.
So we don't need refcount in zswap entry anymore and don't need to

The side effect is that zswap_entry_free() maybe not happen in tree
spinlock, but it's ok since nothing need to be protected by the lock.

The !zswap_exclusive_loads_enabled mode will leave compressed copy in
the zswap tree and lru list after the folio swapin.
There are some disadvantages in this mode:
1. It's a waste of memory since there are two copies of data, one is
folio, the other one is compressed data in zswap. And it's unlikely
the compressed data is useful in the near future.
2. If that folio is dirtied, the compressed data must be not useful,
but we don't know and don't invalidate the trashy memory in zswap.
3. It's not reclaimable from zswap shrinker since zswap_writeback_entry()
will always return -EEXIST and terminate the shrinking process.
On the other hand, the only downside of zswap_exclusive_loads_enabled
is a little more cpu usage/latency when compression, and the same if
the folio is removed from swapcache or dirtied.
More explanation by Johannes on why we should consider exclusive load
as the default for zswap:
Caching "swapout work" is helpful when the system is thrashing. Then
recently swapped in pages might get swapped out again very soon. It
certainly makes sense with conventional swap, because keeping a clean
copy on the disk saves IO work and doesn't cost any additional memory.
But with zswap, it's different. It saves some compression work on a
thrashing page. But the act of keeping compressed memory contributes
to a higher rate of thrashing. And that can cause IO in other places
like zswap writeback and file memory.
And the A/B test results of the kernel build in tmpfs with limited memory
can support this theory:

cat /sys/kernel/debug/zswap/duplicate_entry
2086447
When testing, the duplicate_entry value is very high, but no warning
message in the kernel log. From the comment of duplicate_entry "Duplicate
store was encountered (rare)", it seems something goes wrong.
Actually it's incremented in the beginning of zswap_store(), which found
its zswap entry has already on the tree. And this is a normal case, since
the folio could leave zswap entry on the tree after swapin, later it's
dirtied and swapout/zswap_store again, found its original zswap entry.
So duplicate_entry should be only incremented in the real bug case, which
already have "WARN_ON(1)", it looks redundant to count bug case, so this
patch just remove it.

The reason is that __read_swap_cache_async() return NULL because

Patch series "mm/zswap: optimize zswap lru list", v2.
This series is motivated when observe the zswap lru list shrinking, noted
there are some unexpected cases in zswap_writeback_entry().
bpftrace -e 'kr:zswap_writeback_entry {@[(int32)retval]=count()}'
There are some -ENOMEM because when the swap entry is freed to per-cpu
swap pool, it doesn't invalidate/drop zswap entry. Then the shrinker
encounter these trashy zswap entries, it can't be reclaimed and return
-ENOMEM.
So move the invalidation ahead to when swap entry freed to the per-cpu
swap pool, since there is no any benefit to leave trashy zswap entries on
the zswap tree and lru list.
Another case is -EEXIST, which is seen more in the case of
!zswap_exclusive_loads_enabled, in which case the swapin folio will leave
compressed copy on the tree and lru list. And it can't be reclaimed until
the folio is removed from swapcache.
Changing to zswap_exclusive_loads_enabled mode will invalidate when folio
swapin, which has its own drawback if that folio is still clean in
swapcache and swapout again, we need to compress it again. Please see the
commit for details on why we choose exclusive load as the default for
zswap.
Another optimization for -EEXIST is that we add LRU_STOP to support
terminating the shrinking process to avoid evicting warmer region.
Testing using kernel build in tmpfs, one 50GB swapfile and
zswap shrinker_enabled, with memory.max set to 2GB.

is implemented to fix race problem between lru writeback and swapoff, and
the reason why we rotate the entry at the beginning.

Patch series "mm/hugetlb: Restore the reservation", v2.
This is a fix for a case where a backing huge page could stolen after
madvise(MADV_DONTNEED).
A full reproducer is in selftest. See
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240105155419.1939484-1-leitao@debian.org/
In order to test this patch, I instrumented the kernel with LOCKDEP and
KASAN, and run the following tests, without any regression:
* The self test that reproduces the problem
* All mm hugetlb selftests
SUMMARY: PASS=9 SKIP=0 FAIL=0
* All libhugetlbfs tests
PASS: 0 86
FAIL: 0 0
This patch (of 2):
Currently there is a bug that a huge page could be stolen, and when the
original owner tries to fault in it, it causes a page fault.
You can achieve that by:
1) Creating a single page
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/mm/hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages
2) mmap() the page above with MAP_HUGETLB into (void *ptr1).
* This will mark the page as reserved
3) touch the page, which causes a page fault and allocates the page
* This will move the page out of the free list.
* It will also unreserved the page, since there is no more free
page
4) madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) the page
* This will free the page, but not mark it as reserved.
5) Allocate a secondary page with mmap(MAP_HUGETLB) into (void *ptr2).
* it should fail, but, since there is no more available page.
* But, since the page above is not reserved, this mmap() succeed.
6) Faulting at ptr1 will cause a SIGBUS
* it will try to allocate a huge page, but there is none
available
A full reproducer is in selftest. See
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240105155419.1939484-1-leitao@debian.org/
Fix this by restoring the reserved page if necessary.
These are the condition for the page restore:
* The system is not using surplus pages. The goal is to reduce the
surplus usage for this case.
* If the VMA has the HPAGE_RESV_OWNER flag set, and is PRIVATE. This is
safely checked using __vma_private_lock()
* The page is anonymous
Once this is scenario is found, set the `hugetlb_restore_reserve` bit in
the folio. Then check if the resv reservations need to be adjusted
later, done later, after the spinlock, since the vma_xxxx_reservation()
might touch the file system lock.

Before 388536ac291 ("mm:vmscan: fix inaccurate reclaim during proactive
reclaim") we passed the number of pages for the reclaim request directly
to try_to_free_mem_cgroup_pages, which could lead to significant
overreclaim. After 0388536ac291 the number of pages was limited to a
maximum 32 (SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX) to reduce the amount of overreclaim.
However such a small batch size caused a regression in reclaim performance
due to many more reclaim start/stop cycles inside memory_reclaim. The
restart cost is amortized over more pages with larger batch sizes, and
becomes a significant component of the runtime if the batch size is too
small.
Reclaim tries to balance nr_to_reclaim fidelity with fairness across nodes
and cgroups over which the pages are spread. As such, the bigger the
request, the bigger the absolute overreclaim error. Historic in-kernel
users of reclaim have used fixed, small sized requests to approach an
appropriate reclaim rate over time. When we reclaim a user request of
arbitrary size, use decaying batch sizes to manage error while maintaining
reasonable throughput.

unchanged, this can be optimized later if required.
Ignore the soft-dirty bit only if the bit doesn't have any meaning in the

Let's implement PTE batching when consecutive (present) PTEs map
consecutive pages of the same large folio, and all other PTE bits besides
the PFNs are equal.
We will optimize folio_pte_batch() separately, to ignore selected PTE
bits. This patch is based on work by Ryan Roberts.
Use __always_inline for __copy_present_ptes() and keep the handling for
single PTEs completely separate from the multi-PTE case: we really want
the compiler to optimize for the single-PTE case with small folios, to not
degrade performance.
Note that PTE batching will never exceed a single page table and will
always stay within VMA boundaries.
Further, processing PTE-mapped THP that maybe pinned and have
PageAnonExclusive set on at least one subpage should work as expected, but
there is room for improvement: We will repeatedly (1) detect a PTE batch
(2) detect that we have to copy a page (3) fall back and allocate a single
page to copy a single page. For now we won't care as pinned pages are a
corner case, and we should rather look into maintaining only a single
PageAnonExclusive bit for large folios.

Currently we will use 'cc->nr_freepages >= cc->nr_migratepages' comparison
to ensure that enough freepages are isolated in isolate_freepages(),
however it just decreases the cc->nr_freepages without updating
cc->nr_migratepages in compaction_alloc(), which will waste more CPU
cycles and cause too many freepages to be isolated.
So we should also update the cc->nr_migratepages when allocating or
freeing the freepages to avoid isolating excess freepages. And I can see
fewer free pages are scanned and isolated when running thpcompact on my
Arm64 server:

Ops Compaction free scanned 1090587971.00 1080632536.00
Ops Compact scan efficiency 12.03 14.26
Moreover, I did not see an obvious latency improvements, this is likely
because isolating freepages is not the bottleneck in the thpcompact test
case.

In the event of rebind, pol->nodemask can change at the same time as an
allocation occurs. We can detect this with tsk->mems_allowed_seq and
prevent a miscount or an allocation failure from occurring.
The same thing happens in the allocators to detect failure, but this can
prevent spurious failures in a much smaller critical section.

When a system has multiple NUMA nodes and it becomes bandwidth hungry,
using the current MPOL_INTERLEAVE could be an wise option.
However, if those NUMA nodes consist of different types of memory such as
socket-attached DRAM and CXL/PCIe attached DRAM, the round-robin based
interleave policy does not optimally distribute data to make use of their
different bandwidth characteristics.
Instead, interleave is more effective when the allocation policy follows
each NUMA nodes' bandwidth weight rather than a simple 1:1 distribution.
This patch introduces a new memory policy, MPOL_WEIGHTED_INTERLEAVE,
enabling weighted interleave between NUMA nodes. Weighted interleave
allows for proportional distribution of memory across multiple numa nodes,
preferably apportioned to match the bandwidth of each node.
For example, if a system has 1 CPU node (0), and 2 memory nodes (0,1),
with bandwidth of (100GB/s, 50GB/s) respectively, the appropriate weight
distribution is (2:1).
Weights for each node can be assigned via the new sysfs extension:
/sys/kernel/mm/mempolicy/weighted_interleave/
For now, the default value of all nodes will be `1`, which matches the
behavior of standard 1:1 round-robin interleave. An extension will be
added in the future to allow default values to be registered at kernel and
device bringup time.
The policy allocates a number of pages equal to the set weights. For
example, if the weights are (2,1), then 2 pages will be allocated on node0
for every 1 page allocated on node1.
The new flag MPOL_WEIGHTED_INTERLEAVE can be used in set_mempolicy(2)
and mbind(2).
Some high level notes about the pieces of weighted interleave:
current->il_prev:
Tracks the node previously allocated from.
current->il_weight:
The active weight of the current node (current->il_prev)
When this reaches 0, current->il_prev is set to the next node
and current->il_weight is set to the next weight.
weighted_interleave_nodes:
Counts the number of allocations as they occur, and applies the
weight for the current node. When the weight reaches 0, switch
to the next node. Operates only on task->mempolicy.
weighted_interleave_nid:
Gets the total weight of the nodemask as well as each individual
node weight, then calculates the node based on the given index.
Operates on VMA policies.
bulk_array_weighted_interleave:
Gets the total weight of the nodemask as well as each individual
node weight, then calculates the number of "interleave rounds" as
well as any delta ("partial round"). Calculates the number of
pages for each node and allocates them.
If a node was scheduled for interleave via interleave_nodes, the
current weight will be allocated first.
Operates only on the task->mempolicy.
One piece of complexity is the interaction between a recent refactor which
split the logic to acquire the "ilx" (interleave index) of an allocation
and the actually application of the interleave. If a call to
alloc_pages_mpol() were made with a weighted-interleave policy and ilx set
to NO_INTERLEAVE_INDEX, weighted_interleave_nodes() would operate on a VMA
policy - violating the description above.
An inspection of all callers of alloc_pages_mpol() shows that all external
callers set ilx to `0`, an index value, or will call get_vma_policy() to
acquire the ilx.
For example, mm/shmem.c may call into alloc_pages_mpol. The call stacks
all set (pgoff_t ilx) or end up in `get_vma_policy()`. This enforces the
`weighted_interleave_nodes()` and `weighted_interleave_nid()` policy
requirements (task/vma respectively).

Patch series "mm/mempolicy: weighted interleave mempolicy and sysfs
extension", v5.
Weighted interleave is a new interleave policy intended to make use of
heterogeneous memory environments appearing with CXL.
The existing interleave mechanism does an even round-robin distribution of
memory across all nodes in a nodemask, while weighted interleave
distributes memory across nodes according to a provided weight. (Weight =
# of page allocations per round)
Weighted interleave is intended to reduce average latency when bandwidth
is pressured - therefore increasing total throughput.
In other words: It allows greater use of the total available bandwidth in
a heterogeneous hardware environment (different hardware provides
different bandwidth capacity).
As bandwidth is pressured, latency increases - first linearly and then
exponentially. By keeping bandwidth usage distributed according to
available bandwidth, we therefore can reduce the average latency of a
cacheline fetch.
A good explanation of the bandwidth vs latency response curve:
https://mahmoudhatem.wordpress.com/2017/11/07/memory-bandwidth-vs-latency-response-curve/
From the article:
```
Constant region:
The latency response is fairly constant for the first 40%
of the sustained bandwidth.
Linear region:
In between 40% to 80% of the sustained bandwidth, the
latency response increases almost linearly with the bandwidth
demand of the system due to contention overhead by numerous
memory requests.
Exponential region:
Between 80% to 100% of the sustained bandwidth, the memory
latency is dominated by the contention latency which can be
as much as twice the idle latency or more.
Maximum sustained bandwidth :
Is 65% to 75% of the theoretical maximum bandwidth.
```
As a general rule of thumb:
* If bandwidth usage is low, latency does not increase. It is
optimal to place data in the nearest (lowest latency) device.
* If bandwidth usage is high, latency increases. It is optimal
to place data such that bandwidth use is optimized per-device.
This is the top line goal: Provide a user a mechanism to target using the
"maximum sustained bandwidth" of each hardware component in a heterogenous
memory system.
For example, the stream benchmark demonstrates that 1:1 (default)
interleave is actively harmful, while weighted interleave can be
beneficial. Default interleave distributes data such that too much
pressure is placed on devices with lower available bandwidth.
Stream Benchmark (vs DRAM, 1 Socket + 1 CXL Device)
Default interleave : -78% (slower than DRAM)
Global weighting : -6% to +4% (workload dependant)
Targeted weights : +2.5% to +4% (consistently better than DRAM)
Global means the task-policy was set (set_mempolicy), while targeted means
VMA policies were set (mbind2). We see weighted interleave is not always
beneficial when applied globally, but is always beneficial when applied to
bandwidth-driving memory regions.
There are 4 patches in this set:
1) Implement system-global interleave weights as sysfs extension
in mm/mempolicy.c. These weights are RCU protected, and a
default weight set is provided (all weights are 1 by default).
In future work, we intend to expose an interface for HMAT/CDAT
code to set reasonable default values based on the memory
configuration of the system discovered at boot/hotplug.
2) A mild refactor of some interleave-logic for re-use in the
new weighted interleave logic.
3) MPOL_WEIGHTED_INTERLEAVE extension for set_mempolicy/mbind
4) Protect interleave logic (weighted and normal) with the
mems_allowed seq cookie. If the nodemask changes while
accessing it during a rebind, just retry the access.
Included below are some performance and LTP test information,
and a sample numactl branch which can be used for testing.

LTP Tests: https://github.com/gmprice/ltp/tree/mempolicy2
= Existing tests
set_mempolicy, get_mempolicy, mbind
MPOL_WEIGHTED_INTERLEAVE added manually to test basic functionality but
did not adjust tests for weighting. Basically the weights were set to 1,
which is the default, and it should behave the same as MPOL_INTERLEAVE if
logic is correct.

This patch (of 4):
This patch provides a way to set interleave weight information under sysfs
at /sys/kernel/mm/mempolicy/weighted_interleave/nodeN
The sysfs structure is designed as follows.
$ tree /sys/kernel/mm/mempolicy/
/sys/kernel/mm/mempolicy/ [1]
└── weighted_interleave [2]
├── node0 [3]
└── node1
Each file above can be explained as follows.
[1] mm/mempolicy: configuration interface for mempolicy subsystem
[2] weighted_interleave/: config interface for weighted interleave policy
[3] weighted_interleave/nodeN: weight for nodeN
If a node value is set to `0`, the system-default value will be used.
As of this patch, the system-default for all nodes is always 1.

Use SZ_{8K, 128K} helper macro instead of the number in init_user_reserve
and reserve_mem_notifier. This is more readable.

Kernel builders could silently enable CONFIG_DAMON_DBGFS_DEPRECATED.
Users who manually check the files under the DAMON debugfs directory could
notice the deprecation owing to the 'DEPRECATED' DAMON debugfs file, but
there could be users who doesn't manually check the files.
Make the deprecation cannot be ignored in the case by renaming
'monitor_on' file, which is essential for real use of DAMON on runtime, to
'monitor_on_DEPRECATED'. Still users who control DAMON via only
user-space tool could ignore the deprecation, but that's what the tool
developers should take care of. DAMON user-space tool, damo, has also
made a change[1] for the purpose.

DAMON debugfs interface deprecation message is written twice, once for the
warning, and again for DEPRECATED file's read output. De-duplicate those
by defining the message as a macro and reuse.
