mm: fix the race between collapse and PT_RECLAIM under per-vma lock
The check_pmd_still_valid() call during collapse is currently only
protected by the mmap_lock in write mode, which was sufficient when
pt_reclaim always ran under mmap_lock in read mode. However, since
madvise_dontneed can now execute under a per-VMA lock, this assumption is
no longer valid. As a result, a race condition can occur between collapse
and PT_RECLAIM, potentially leading to a kernel panic.

khugepaged: optimize collapse_pte_mapped_thp() by PTE batching
Use PTE batching to batch process PTEs mapping the same large folio. An improvement is expected due to batching mapcount manipulation on the folios, and for arm64 which supports contig mappings, the number of TLB flushes is also reduced. Note that we do not need to make a change to the check "if (folio_page(folio, i) != page)"; if i'th page of the folio is equal to the first page of our batch, then i + 1, .... i + nr_batch_ptes - 1 pages of the folio will be equal to the corresponding pages of our batch mapping consecutive pages.

khugepaged: reduce race probability between migration and khugepaged
Suppose a folio is under migration, and khugepaged is also trying to collapse it. collapse_pte_mapped_thp() will retrieve the folio from the page cache via filemap_lock_folio(), thus taking a reference on the folio and sleeping on the folio lock, since the lock is held by the migration path. Migration will then fail in __folio_migrate_mapping -> folio_ref_freeze. Reduce the probability of such a race happening (leading to migration failure) by bailing out if we detect a PMD is marked with a migration entry. This fixes the migration-shared-anon-thp testcase failure on Apple M3. Note that, this is not a "fix" since it only reduces the chance of interference of khugepaged with migration, wherein both the kernel functionalities are deemed "best-effort".

mm/madvise: eliminate very confusing manipulation of prev VMA
The madvise code has for the longest time had very confusing code around the 'prev' VMA pointer passed around various functions which, in all cases except madvise_update_vma(), is unused and instead simply updated as soon as the function is invoked. To compound the confusion, the prev pointer is also used to indicate to the caller that the mmap lock has been dropped and that we can therefore not safely access the end of the current VMA (which might have been updated by madvise_update_vma()). Clear up this confusion by not setting prev = vma anywhere except in madvise_walk_vmas(), update all references to prev which will always be equal to vma after madvise_vma_behavior() is invoked, and adding a flag to indicate that the lock has been dropped to make this explicit. Additionally, drop a redundant BUG_ON() from madvise_collapse(), which is simply reiterating the BUG_ON(mmap_locked) above it (note that BUG_ON() is not appropriate here, but we leave existing code as-is). We finally adjust the madvise_walk_vmas() logic to be a little clearer - delaying the assignment of the end of the range to the start of the new range until the last moment and handling the lock being dropped scenario immediately. Additionally add some explanatory comments.

mm/khugepaged: remove redundant pmd_devmap() check
The pmd_devmap() check in check_pmd_state() is redundant because the only user of pmd_devmap were device dax and fs dax. However all callers of check_pmd_state() first call thp_vma_allowable_order() to check if the vma should be scanned. Except when called from a page fault this always returns 0 for dax vma's, hence we would never expect to see a pmd_devmap entry.

mm: update core kernel code to use vm_flags_t consistently
The core kernel code is currently very inconsistent in its use of vm_flags_t vs. unsigned long. This prevents us from changing the type of vm_flags_t in the future and is simply not correct, so correct this. While this results in rather a lot of churn, it is a critical pre-requisite for a future planned change to VMA flag type. Additionally, update VMA userland tests to account for the changes. To make review easier and to break things into smaller parts, driver and architecture-specific changes is left for a subsequent commit. The code has been adjusted to cascade the changes across all calling code as far as is needed. We will adjust architecture-specific and driver code in a subsequent patch. Overall, this patch does not introduce any functional change.

mm/khugepaged: fix race with folio split/free using temporary reference
hpage_collapse_scan_file() calls is_refcount_suitable(), which in turn
calls folio_mapcount(). folio_mapcount() checks folio_test_large() before
proceeding to folio_large_mapcount(), but there is a race window where the
folio may get split/freed between these checks, triggering:
VM_WARN_ON_FOLIO(!folio_test_large(folio), folio)
Take a temporary reference to the folio in hpage_collapse_scan_file().
This stabilizes the folio during refcount check and prevents incorrect
large folio detection due to concurrent split/free. Use helper
folio_expected_ref_count() + 1 to compare with folio_ref_count() instead
of using is_refcount_suitable().

Originally, the file pages collapse was intended for tmpfs/shmem to merge into THP in the background. However, now not only tmpfs/shmem can support large folios, but some other file systems (such as XFS, erofs ...) also support large folios.

mm: convert do_set_pmd() to take a folio
In do_set_pmd(), we always use the folio->page to build PMD mappings for the entire folio. Since all callers of do_set_pmd() already hold a stable folio, converting do_set_pmd() to take a folio is safe and more straightforward. In addition, to ensure the extensibility of do_set_pmd() for supporting larger folios beyond PMD size, we keep the 'page' parameter to specify which page within the folio should be mapped.

Also removes both callers of mk_pmd() that aren't part of mk_huge_pmd(), getting us a step closer to removing the confusion between mk_pmd(), mk_huge_pmd() and pmd_mkhuge().

mm: convert folio_likely_mapped_shared() to folio_maybe_mapped_shared()
Let's reuse our new MM ownership tracking infrastructure for large folios to make folio_likely_mapped_shared() never return false negatives -- never indicating "not mapped shared" although the folio *is* mapped shared. With that, we can rename it to folio_maybe_mapped_shared() and get rid of the dependency on the mapcount of the first folio page. The semantics are now arguably clearer: no mixture of "false negatives" and "false positives", only the remaining possibility for "false positives". Thoroughly document the new semantics. We might now detect that a large folio is "maybe mapped shared" although it *no longer* is -- but once was. Now, if more than two MMs mapped a folio at the same time, and the MM mapping the folio exclusively at the end is not one tracked in the two folio MM slots, we will detect the folio as "maybe mapped shared". For anonymous folios, usually (except weird corner cases) all PTEs that target a "maybe mapped shared" folio are R/O. As soon as a child process would write to them (iow, actively use them), we would CoW and effectively replace these PTEs. Most cases (below) are not expected to really matter with large anonymous folios for this reason. Most importantly, there will be no change at all for: * small folios * hugetlb folios * PMD-mapped PMD-sized THPs (single mapping) This change has the potential to affect existing callers of folio_likely_mapped_shared() -> folio_maybe_mapped_shared(): (1) fs/proc/task_mmu.c: no change (hugetlb) (2) khugepaged counts PTEs that target shared folios towards max_ptes_shared (default: HPAGE_PMD_NR / 2), meaning we could skip a collapse where we would have previously collapsed. This only applies to anonymous folios and is not expected to matter in practice. Worth noting that this change sorts out case (A) documented in commit |

After analysis, I confirm the vma is mapped to /dev/zero. Such a vma certainly has vm_file, but it is set to anonymous by mmap_zero(). So even if it's mmapped by 2m-unaligned, it can pass the check in thp_vma_allowable_order() as it is an anonymous-mmap, but then be collapsed as a file-mmap. It seems the problem has existed for a long time, but actually, since we have khugepaged_max_ptes_none check before, we will skip collapse it as it is /dev/zero and so has no present page.

mm: khugepaged: recheck pmd state in retract_page_tables()
Patch series "synchronously scan and reclaim empty user PTE pages", v4. Previously, we tried to use a completely asynchronous method to reclaim empty user PTE pages [1]. After discussing with David Hildenbrand, we decided to implement synchronous reclaimation in the case of madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) as the first step. So this series 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). In zap_pte_range(), mmu_gather is used to perform batch tlb flushing and page freeing operations. Therefore, if we want to free the empty PTE page in this path, the most natural way is to add it to mmu_gather as well. Now, if CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE is selected, mmu_gather will free page table pages by semi RCU: - batch table freeing: asynchronous free by RCU - single table freeing: IPI + synchronous free But this is not enough to free the empty PTE page table pages in paths other that munmap and exit_mmap path, because IPI cannot be synchronized with rcu_read_lock() in pte_offset_map{_lock}(). So we should let single table also be freed by RCU like batch table freeing. As a first step, we supported this feature on x86_64 and selectd the newly introduced CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_PT_RECLAIM. For other cases such as madvise(MADV_FREE), consider scanning and freeing empty PTE pages asynchronously in the future. Note: issues related to TLB flushing are not new to this series and are tracked in the separate RFC patch [3]. And more context please refer to this thread [4]. [1]. https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/cover.1718267194.git.zhengqi.arch@bytedance.com/ [2]. https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/cover.1727332572.git.zhengqi.arch@bytedance.com/ [3]. https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20240815120715.14516-1-zhengqi.arch@bytedance.com/ [4]. https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/6f38cb19-9847-4f70-bbe7-06881bb016be@bytedance.com/ This patch (of 11): In retract_page_tables(), the lock of new_folio is still held, we will be blocked in the page fault path, which prevents the pte entries from being set again. So even though the old empty PTE page may be concurrently freed and a new PTE page is filled into the pmd entry, it is still empty and can be removed. So just refactor the retract_page_tables() a little bit and recheck the pmd state after holding the pmd lock.

The types of mm flags are now far beyond the core dump related features. This patch moves mm flags from linux/sched/coredump.h to linux/mm_types.h. The linux/sched/coredump.h has include the mm_types.h, so the C files related to coredump does not need to change head file inclusion. In addition, the inclusion of sched/coredump.h now can be deleted from the C files that irrelevant to core dump.

mm: shmem: fix khugepaged activation policy for shmem
Shmem has a separate interface (different from anonymous pages) to control huge page allocation, that means shmem THP can be enabled while anonymous THP is disabled. However, in this case, khugepaged will not start to collapse shmem THP, which is unreasonable. To fix this issue, we should call start_stop_khugepaged() to activate or deactivate the khugepaged thread when setting shmem mTHP interfaces. Moreover, add a new helper shmem_hpage_pmd_enabled() to help to check whether shmem THP is enabled, which will determine if khugepaged should be activated.

mm: khugepaged: fix the arguments order in khugepaged_collapse_file trace point
The "addr" and "is_shmem" arguments have different order in TP_PROTO and
TP_ARGS. This resulted in the incorrect trace result:
text-hugepage-644429 [276] 392092.878683: mm_khugepaged_collapse_file:
mm=0xffff20025d52c440, hpage_pfn=0x200678c00, index=512, addr=1, is_shmem=0,
filename=text-hugepage, nr=512, result=failed
The value of "addr" is wrong because it was treated as bool value, the
type of is_shmem.
Fix the order in TP_PROTO to keep "addr" is before "is_shmem" since the
original patch review suggested this order to achieve best packing.
And use "lx" for "addr" instead of "ld" in TP_printk because address is
typically shown in hex.
After the fix, the trace result looks correct:
text-hugepage-7291 [004] 128.627251: mm_khugepaged_collapse_file:

mm: split underused THPs
This is an attempt to mitigate the issue of running out of memory when THP is always enabled. During runtime whenever a THP is being faulted in (__do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page) or collapsed by khugepaged (collapse_huge_page), the THP is added to _deferred_list. Whenever memory reclaim happens in linux, the kernel runs the deferred_split shrinker which goes through the _deferred_list. If the folio was partially mapped, the shrinker attempts to split it. If the folio is not partially mapped, the shrinker checks if the THP was underused, i.e. how many of the base 4K pages of the entire THP were zero-filled. If this number goes above a certain threshold (decided by /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/khugepaged/max_ptes_none), the shrinker will attempt to split that THP. Then at remap time, the pages that were zero-filled are mapped to the shared zeropage, hence saving memory.

mm: fix khugepaged activation policy
Since the introduction of mTHP, the docuementation has stated that
khugepaged would be enabled when any mTHP size is enabled, and disabled
when all mTHP sizes are disabled. There are 2 problems with this; 1.
this is not what was implemented by the code and 2. this is not the
desirable behavior.
Desirable behavior is for khugepaged to be enabled when any PMD-sized THP
is enabled, anon or file. (Note that file THP is still controlled by the
top-level control so we must always consider that, as well as the PMD-size
mTHP control for anon). khugepaged only supports collapsing to PMD-sized
THP so there is no value in enabling it when PMD-sized THP is disabled.
So let's change the code and documentation to reflect this policy.
Further, per-size enabled control modification events were not previously
forwarded to khugepaged to give it an opportunity to start or stop.
Consequently the following was resulting in khugepaged eroneously not
being activated:
echo never > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled
echo always > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/hugepages-2048kB/enabled

mm: extend rmap flags arguments for folio_add_new_anon_rmap
Patch series "mm: clarify folio_add_new_anon_rmap() and __folio_add_anon_rmap()", v2. This patchset is preparatory work for mTHP swapin. folio_add_new_anon_rmap() assumes that new anon rmaps are always exclusive. However, this assumption doesn’t hold true for cases like do_swap_page(), where a new anon might be added to the swapcache and is not necessarily exclusive. The patchset extends the rmap flags to allow folio_add_new_anon_rmap() to handle both exclusive and non-exclusive new anon folios. The do_swap_page() function is updated to use this extended API with rmap flags. Consequently, all new anon folios now consistently use folio_add_new_anon_rmap(). The special case for !folio_test_anon() in __folio_add_anon_rmap() can be safely removed. In conclusion, new anon folios always use folio_add_new_anon_rmap(), regardless of exclusivity. Old anon folios continue to use __folio_add_anon_rmap() via folio_add_anon_rmap_pmd() and folio_add_anon_rmap_ptes(). This patch (of 3): In the case of a swap-in, a new anonymous folio is not necessarily exclusive. This patch updates the rmap flags to allow a new anonymous folio to be treated as either exclusive or non-exclusive. To maintain the existing behavior, we always use EXCLUSIVE as the default setting.

vfs: remove redundant smp_mb for thp handling in do_dentry_open
opening for write performs: if (f->f_mode & FMODE_WRITE) { [snip] smp_mb(); if (filemap_nr_thps(inode->i_mapping)) { [snip] } } filemap_nr_thps on kernels built without CONFIG_READ_ONLY_THP_FOR expands to 0, allowing the compiler to eliminate the entire thing, with exception of the fence (and the branch leading there). So happens required synchronisation between i_writecount and nr_thps changes is already provided by the full fence coming from get_write_access -> atomic_inc_unless_negative, thus the smp_mb instance above can be removed regardless of CONFIG_READ_ONLY_THP_FOR. While I updated commentary in places claiming to match the now-removed fence, I did not try to patch them to act on the compile option. I did not bother benchmarking it, not issuing a spurious full fence in the fast path does not warrant justification from perf standpoint.

mm/khugepaged: replace page_mapcount() check by folio_likely_mapped_shared()
We want to limit the use of page_mapcount() to places where absolutely required, to prepare for kernel configs where we won't keep track of per-page mapcounts in large folios. khugepaged is one of the remaining "more challenging" page_mapcount() users, but we might be able to move away from page_mapcount() without resulting in a significant behavior change that would warrant special-casing based on kernel configs. In 2020, we first added support to khugepaged for collapsing COW-shared pages via commit |

mm: track mapcount of large folios in single value
Let's track the mapcount of large folios in a single value. The mapcount of a large folio currently corresponds to the sum of the entire mapcount and all page mapcounts. This sum is what we actually want to know in folio_mapcount() and it is also sufficient for implementing folio_mapped(). With PTE-mapped THP becoming more important and more widely used, we want to avoid looping over all pages of a folio just to obtain the mapcount of large folios. The comment "In the common case, avoid the loop when no pages mapped by PTE" in folio_total_mapcount() does no longer hold for mTHP that are always mapped by PTE. Further, we are planning on using folio_mapcount() more frequently, and might even want to remove page mapcounts for large folios in some kernel configs. Therefore, allow for reading the mapcount of large folios efficiently and atomically without looping over any pages. Maintain the mapcount also for hugetlb pages for simplicity. Use the new mapcount to implement folio_mapcount() and folio_mapped(). Make page_mapped() simply call folio_mapped(). We can now get rid of folio_large_is_mapped(). _nr_pages_mapped is now only used in rmap code and for debugging purposes. Keep folio_nr_pages_mapped() around, but document that its use should be limited to rmap internals and debugging purposes. This change implies one additional atomic add/sub whenever mapping/unmapping (parts of) a large folio. As we now batch RMAP operations for PTE-mapped THP during fork(), during unmap/zap, and when PTE-remapping a PMD-mapped THP, and we adjust the large mapcount for a PTE batch only once, the added overhead in the common case is small. Only when unmapping individual pages of a large folio (e.g., during COW), the overhead might be bigger in comparison, but it's essentially one additional atomic operation. Note that before the new mapcount would overflow, already our refcount would overflow: each mapping requires a folio reference. Extend the focumentation of folio_mapcount().

khugepaged: inline hpage_collapse_alloc_folio()
Patch series "khugepaged folio conversions". We've been kind of hacking piecemeal at converting khugepaged to use folios instead of compound pages, and so this patchset is a little larger than it should be as I undo some of our wrong moves in the past. In particular, collapse_file() now consistently uses 'new_folio' for the freshly allocated folio and 'folio' for the one that's currently in use. This patch (of 7): This function has one caller, and the combined function is simpler to read, reason about and modify.
