mm/shmem, swap: fix softlockup with mTHP swapin
Following softlockup can be easily reproduced on my test machine with:
echo always > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/hugepages-64kB/enabled
swapon /dev/zram0 # zram0 is a 48G swap device
mkdir -p /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/test
echo 1G > /sys/fs/cgroup/test/memory.max
echo $BASHPID > /sys/fs/cgroup/test/cgroup.procs
while true; do
dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/test.img bs=1M count=5120
cat /tmp/test.img > /dev/null
rm /tmp/test.img
done
Then after a while:

</TASK>
The reason is simple, readahead brought some order 0 folio in swap cache,
and the swapin mTHP folio being allocated is in conflict with it, so
swapcache_prepare fails and causes shmem_swap_alloc_folio to return
-EEXIST, and shmem simply retries again and again causing this loop.
Fix it by applying a similar fix for anon mTHP swapin.
The performance change is very slight, time of swapin 10g zero folios
with shmem (test for 12 times):
Before: 2.47s
After: 2.48s

- The 11 patch series "Add folio_mk_pte()" from Matthew Wilcox
simplifies the act of creating a pte which addresses the first page in a folio and reduces the amount of plumbing which architecture must implement to provide this. - The 8 patch series "Misc folio patches for 6.16" from Matthew Wilcox is a shower of largely unrelated folio infrastructure changes which clean things up and better prepare us for future work. - The 3 patch series "memory,x86,acpi: hotplug memory alignment advisement" from Gregory Price adds early-init code to prevent x86 from leaving physical memory unused when physical address regions are not aligned to memory block size. - The 2 patch series "mm/compaction: allow more aggressive proactive compaction" from Michal Clapinski provides some tuning of the (sadly, hard-coded (more sadly, not auto-tuned)) thresholds for our invokation of proactive compaction. In a simple test case, the reduction of a guest VM's memory consumption was dramatic. - The 8 patch series "Minor cleanups and improvements to swap freeing code" from Kemeng Shi provides some code cleaups and a small efficiency improvement to this part of our swap handling code. - The 6 patch series "ptrace: introduce PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO API" from Dmitry Levin adds the ability for a ptracer to modify syscalls arguments. At this time we can alter only "system call information that are used by strace system call tampering, namely, syscall number, syscall arguments, and syscall return value. This series should have been incorporated into mm.git's "non-MM" branch, but I goofed. - The 3 patch series "fs/proc: extend the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl to report guard regions" from Andrei Vagin extends the info returned by the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl against /proc/pid/pagemap. This permits CRIU to more efficiently get at the info about guard regions. - The 2 patch series "Fix parameter passed to page_mapcount_is_type()" from Gavin Shan implements that fix. No runtime effect is expected because validate_page_before_insert() happens to fix up this error. - The 3 patch series "kernel/events/uprobes: uprobe_write_opcode() rewrite" from David Hildenbrand basically brings uprobe text poking into the current decade. Remove a bunch of hand-rolled implementation in favor of using more current facilities. - The 3 patch series "mm/ptdump: Drop assumption that pxd_val() is u64" from Anshuman Khandual provides enhancements and generalizations to the pte dumping code. This might be needed when 128-bit Page Table Descriptors are enabled for ARM. - The 12 patch series "Always call constructor for kernel page tables" from Kevin Brodsky "ensures that the ctor/dtor is always called for kernel pgtables, as it already is for user pgtables". This permits the addition of more functionality such as "insert hooks to protect page tables". This change does result in various architectures performing unnecesary work, but this is fixed up where it is anticipated to occur. - The 9 patch series "Rust support for mm_struct, vm_area_struct, and mmap" from Alice Ryhl adds plumbing to permit Rust access to core MM structures. - The 3 patch series "fix incorrectly disallowed anonymous VMA merges" from Lorenzo Stoakes takes advantage of some VMA merging opportunities which we've been missing for 15 years. - The 4 patch series "mm/madvise: batch tlb flushes for MADV_DONTNEED and MADV_FREE" from SeongJae Park optimizes process_madvise()'s TLB flushing. Instead of flushing each address range in the provided iovec, we batch the flushing across all the iovec entries. The syscall's cost was approximately halved with a microbenchmark which was designed to load this particular operation. - The 6 patch series "Track node vacancy to reduce worst case allocation counts" from Sidhartha Kumar makes the maple tree smarter about its node preallocation. stress-ng mmap performance increased by single-digit percentages and the amount of unnecessarily preallocated memory was dramaticelly reduced. - The 3 patch series "mm/gup: Minor fix, cleanup and improvements" from Baoquan He removes a few unnecessary things which Baoquan noted when reading the code. - The 3 patch series ""Enhance sysfs handling for memory hotplug in weighted interleave" from Rakie Kim "enhances the weighted interleave policy in the memory management subsystem by improving sysfs handling, fixing memory leaks, and introducing dynamic sysfs updates for memory hotplug support". Fixes things on error paths which we are unlikely to hit. - The 7 patch series "mm/damon: auto-tune DAMOS for NUMA setups including tiered memory" from SeongJae Park introduces new DAMOS quota goal metrics which eliminate the manual tuning which is required when utilizing DAMON for memory tiering. - The 5 patch series "mm/vmalloc.c: code cleanup and improvements" from Baoquan He provides cleanups and small efficiency improvements which Baoquan found via code inspection. - The 2 patch series "vmscan: enforce mems_effective during demotion" from Gregory Price "changes reclaim to respect cpuset.mems_effective during demotion when possible". because "presently, reclaim explicitly ignores cpuset.mems_effective when demoting, which may cause the cpuset settings to violated." "This is useful for isolating workloads on a multi-tenant system from certain classes of memory more consistently." - The 2 patch series ""Clean up split_huge_pmd_locked() and remove unnecessary folio pointers" from Gavin Guo provides minor cleanups and efficiency gains in in the huge page splitting and migrating code. - The 3 patch series "Use kmem_cache for memcg alloc" from Huan Yang creates a slab cache for `struct mem_cgroup', yielding improved memory utilization. - The 4 patch series "add max arg to swappiness in memory.reclaim and lru_gen" from Zhongkun He adds a new "max" argument to the "swappiness=" argument for memory.reclaim MGLRU's lru_gen. This directs proactive reclaim to reclaim from only anon folios rather than file-backed folios. - The 17 patch series "kexec: introduce Kexec HandOver (KHO)" from Mike Rapoport is the first step on the path to permitting the kernel to maintain existing VMs while replacing the host kernel via file-based kexec. At this time only memblock's reserve_mem is preserved. - The 7 patch series "mm: Introduce for_each_valid_pfn()" from David Woodhouse provides and uses a smarter way of looping over a pfn range. By skipping ranges of invalid pfns. - The 2 patch series "sched/numa: Skip VMA scanning on memory pinned to one NUMA node via cpuset.mems" from Libo Chen removes a lot of pointless VMA scanning when a task is pinned a single NUMA mode. Dramatic performance benefits were seen in some real world cases. - The 2 patch series "JFS: Implement migrate_folio for jfs_metapage_aops" from Shivank Garg addresses a warning which occurs during memory compaction when using JFS. - The 4 patch series "move all VMA allocation, freeing and duplication logic to mm" from Lorenzo Stoakes moves some VMA code from kernel/fork.c into the more appropriate mm/vma.c. - The 6 patch series "mm, swap: clean up swap cache mapping helper" from Kairui Song provides code consolidation and cleanups related to the folio_index() function. - The 2 patch series "mm/gup: Cleanup memfd_pin_folios()" from Vishal Moola does that. - The 8 patch series "memcg: Fix test_memcg_min/low test failures" from Waiman Long addresses some bogus failures which are being reported by the test_memcontrol selftest. - The 3 patch series "eliminate mmap() retry merge, add .mmap_prepare hook" from Lorenzo Stoakes commences the deprecation of file_operations.mmap() in favor of the new file_operations.mmap_prepare(). The latter is more restrictive and prevents drivers from messing with things in ways which, amongst other problems, may defeat VMA merging. - The 4 patch series "memcg: decouple memcg and objcg stocks"" from Shakeel Butt decouples the per-cpu memcg charge cache from the objcg's one. This is a step along the way to making memcg and objcg charging NMI-safe, which is a BPF requirement. - The 6 patch series "mm/damon: minor fixups and improvements for code, tests, and documents" from SeongJae Park is "yet another batch of miscellaneous DAMON changes. Fix and improve minor problems in code, tests and documents." - The 7 patch series "memcg: make memcg stats irq safe" from Shakeel Butt converts memcg stats to be irq safe.

mm: move folio_index to mm/swap.h and remove no longer needed helper
There are no remaining users of folio_index() outside the mm subsystem. Move it to mm/swap.h to co-locate it with swap_cache_index(), eliminating a forward declaration, and a function call overhead. Also remove the helper that was used to fix circular header dependency issue.

mm: fix swap_read_folio_zeromap() for large folios with partial zeromap
Patch series "mm: enable large folios swap-in support", v9.
Currently, we support mTHP swapout but not swapin. This means that once
mTHP is swapped out, it will come back as small folios when swapped in.
This is particularly detrimental for devices like Android, where more than
half of the memory is in swap.
The lack of mTHP swapin functionality makes mTHP a showstopper in
scenarios that heavily rely on swap. This patchset introduces mTHP
swap-in support. It starts with synchronous devices similar to zRAM,
aiming to benefit as many users as possible with minimal changes.
This patch (of 3):
There could be a corner case where the first entry is non-zeromap, but a
subsequent entry is zeromap. In this case, we should not let
swap_read_folio_zeromap() return false since we will still read corrupted
data.
Additionally, the iteration of test_bit() is unnecessary and can be
replaced with bitmap operations, which are more efficient.
We can adopt the style of swap_pte_batch() and folio_pte_batch() to
introduce swap_zeromap_batch() which seems to provide the greatest
flexibility for the caller. This approach allows the caller to either
check if the zeromap status of all entries is consistent or determine the
number of contiguous entries with the same status.
Since swap_read_folio() can't handle reading a large folio that's
partially zeromap and partially non-zeromap, we've moved the code to
mm/swap.h so that others, like those working on swap-in, can access it.

mm: return the folio from swapin_readahead
The unuse_pte_range() caller only wants the folio while do_swap_page() wants both the page and the folio. Since do_swap_page() already has logic for handling both the folio and the page, move the folio-to-page logic there. This also lets us allocate larger folios in the SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO path in future.

Right now, swapcache_prepare() and swapcache_clear() supports one entry only, to support large folios, we need to handle multiple swap entries.

mm: swap: remove 'synchronous' argument to swap_read_folio()
Commit [1] introduced IO polling support duding swapin to reduce swap read latency for block devices that can be polled. However later commit [2] removed polling support. Commit [3] removed the remnants of polling support from read_swap_cache_async() and __read_swap_cache_async(). However, it left behind some remnants in swap_read_folio(), the 'synchronous' argument. swap_read_folio() reads the folio synchronously if synchronous=true or if SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO is set in swap_info_struct. The only caller that passes synchronous=true is in do_swap_page() in the SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO case. Hence, the argument is redundant, it is only set to true when the swap read would have been synchronous anyway. Remove it. [1] Commit |

mm/swap: reduce swap cache search space
Currently we use one swap_address_space for every 64M chunk to reduce lock contention, this is like having a set of smaller swap files inside one swap device. But when doing swap cache look up or insert, we are still using the offset of the whole large swap device. This is OK for correctness, as the offset (key) is unique. But Xarray is specially optimized for small indexes, it creates the radix tree levels lazily to be just enough to fit the largest key stored in one Xarray. So we are wasting tree nodes unnecessarily. For 64M chunk it should only take at most 3 levels to contain everything. But if we are using the offset from the whole swap device, the offset (key) value will be way beyond 64M, and so will the tree level. Optimize this by using a new helper swap_cache_index to get a swap entry's unique offset in its own 64M swap_address_space. I see a ~1% performance gain in benchmark and actual workload with high memory pressure. Test with `time memhog 128G` inside a 8G memcg using 128G swap (ramdisk with SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO dropped, tested 3 times, results are stable. The test result is similar but the improvement is smaller if SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO is enabled, as swap out path can never skip swap cache): Before: 6.07user 250.74system 4:17.26elapsed 99%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 8373376maxresident)k 0inputs+0outputs (55major+33555018minor)pagefaults 0swaps After (1.8% faster): 6.08user 246.09system 4:12.58elapsed 99%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 8373248maxresident)k 0inputs+0outputs (54major+33555027minor)pagefaults 0swaps Similar result with MySQL and sysbench using swap: Before: 94055.61 qps After (0.8% faster): 94834.91 qps Radix tree slab usage is also very slightly lower.

mm/swap: get the swap device offset directly

mm/swap: fix race when skipping swapcache
When skipping swapcache for SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO, if two or more threads swapin the same entry at the same time, they get different pages (A, B). Before one thread (T0) finishes the swapin and installs page (A) to the PTE, another thread (T1) could finish swapin of page (B), swap_free the entry, then swap out the possibly modified page reusing the same entry. It breaks the pte_same check in (T0) because PTE value is unchanged, causing ABA problem. Thread (T0) will install a stalled page (A) into the PTE and cause data corruption. One possible callstack is like this: CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- do_swap_page() do_swap_page() with same entry <direct swapin path> <direct swapin path> <alloc page A> <alloc page B> swap_read_folio() <- read to page A swap_read_folio() <- read to page B <slow on later locks or interrupt> <finished swapin first> ... set_pte_at() swap_free() <- entry is free <write to page B, now page A stalled> <swap out page B to same swap entry> pte_same() <- Check pass, PTE seems unchanged, but page A is stalled! swap_free() <- page B content lost! set_pte_at() <- staled page A installed! And besides, for ZRAM, swap_free() allows the swap device to discard the entry content, so even if page (B) is not modified, if swap_read_folio() on CPU0 happens later than swap_free() on CPU1, it may also cause data loss. To fix this, reuse swapcache_prepare which will pin the swap entry using the cache flag, and allow only one thread to swap it in, also prevent any parallel code from putting the entry in the cache. Release the pin after PT unlocked. Racers just loop and wait since it's a rare and very short event. A schedule_timeout_uninterruptible(1) call is added to avoid repeated page faults wasting too much CPU, causing livelock or adding too much noise to perf statistics. A similar livelock issue was described in commit |

This patch (of 13): Move the folio->page conversion into the callers that actually want that. Most of the callers are happier with the folio anyway.

zswap: make shrinking memcg-aware
Currently, we only have a single global LRU for zswap. This makes it impossible to perform worload-specific shrinking - an memcg cannot determine which pages in the pool it owns, and often ends up writing pages from other memcgs. This issue has been previously observed in practice and mitigated by simply disabling memcg-initiated shrinking: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230530232435.3097106-1-nphamcs@gmail.com/T/#u This patch fully resolves the issue by replacing the global zswap LRU with memcg- and NUMA-specific LRUs, and modify the reclaim logic: a) When a store attempt hits an memcg limit, it now triggers a synchronous reclaim attempt that, if successful, allows the new hotter page to be accepted by zswap. b) If the store attempt instead hits the global zswap limit, it will trigger an asynchronous reclaim attempt, in which an memcg is selected for reclaim in a round-robin-like fashion.

mempolicy: alloc_pages_mpol() for NUMA policy without vma
Shrink shmem's stack usage by eliminating the pseudo-vma from its folio
allocation. alloc_pages_mpol(gfp, order, pol, ilx, nid) becomes the
principal actor for passing mempolicy choice down to __alloc_pages(),
rather than vma_alloc_folio(gfp, order, vma, addr, hugepage).
vma_alloc_folio() and alloc_pages() remain, but as wrappers around
alloc_pages_mpol(). alloc_pages_bulk_*() untouched, except to provide the
additional args to policy_nodemask(), which subsumes policy_node().
Cleanup throughout, cutting out some unhelpful "helpers".
It would all be much simpler without MPOL_INTERLEAVE, but that adds a
dynamic to the constant mpol: complicated by v3.6 commit

swap: remove remnants of polling from read_swap_cache_async
Patch series "Per-VMA lock support for swap and userfaults", v7. When per-VMA locks were introduced in [1] several types of page faults would still fall back to mmap_lock to keep the patchset simple. Among them are swap and userfault pages. The main reason for skipping those cases was the fact that mmap_lock could be dropped while handling these faults and that required additional logic to be implemented. Implement the mechanism to allow per-VMA locks to be dropped for these cases. First, change handle_mm_fault to drop per-VMA locks when returning VM_FAULT_RETRY or VM_FAULT_COMPLETED to be consistent with the way mmap_lock is handled. Then change folio_lock_or_retry to accept vm_fault and return vm_fault_t which simplifies later patches. Finally allow swap and uffd page faults to be handled under per-VMA locks by dropping per-VMA and retrying, the same way it's done under mmap_lock. Naturally, once VMA lock is dropped that VMA should be assumed unstable and can't be used. This patch (of 6): Commit [1] introduced IO polling support duding swapin to reduce swap read latency for block devices that can be polled. However later commit [2] removed polling support. Therefore it seems safe to remove do_poll parameter in read_swap_cache_async and always call swap_readpage with synchronous=false waiting for IO completion in folio_lock_or_retry. [1] commit |

mm: introduce ->swap_rw and use it for reads from SWP_FS_OPS swap-space
swap currently uses ->readpage to read swap pages. This can only request one page at a time from the filesystem, which is not most efficient. swap uses ->direct_IO for writes which while this is adequate is an inappropriate over-loading. ->direct_IO may need to had handle allocate space for holes or other details that are not relevant for swap. So this patch introduces a new address_space operation: ->swap_rw. In this patch it is used for reads, and a subsequent patch will switch writes to use it. No filesystem yet supports ->swap_rw, but that is not a problem because no filesystem actually works with filesystem-based swap. Only two filesystems set SWP_FS_OPS: - cifs sets the flag, but ->direct_IO always fails so swap cannot work. - nfs sets the flag, but ->direct_IO calls generic_write_checks() which has failed on swap files for several releases. To ensure that a NULL ->swap_rw isn't called, ->activate_swap() for both NFS and cifs are changed to fail if ->swap_rw is not set. This can be removed if/when the function is added. Future patches will restore swap-over-NFS functionality. To submit an async read with ->swap_rw() we need to allocate a structure to hold the kiocb and other details. swap_readpage() cannot handle transient failure, so we create a mempool to provide the structures.

mm: reclaim mustn't enter FS for SWP_FS_OPS swap-space
If swap-out is using filesystem operations (SWP_FS_OPS), then it is not safe to enter the FS for reclaim. So only down-grade the requirement for swap pages to __GFP_IO after checking that SWP_FS_OPS are not being used. This makes the calculation of "may_enter_fs" slightly more complex, so move it into a separate function. with that done, there is little value in maintaining the bool variable any more. So replace the may_enter_fs variable with a may_enter_fs() function. This removes any risk for the variable becoming out-of-date.

mm: create new mm/swap.h header file
Patch series "MM changes to improve swap-over-NFS support". Assorted improvements for swap-via-filesystem. This is a resend of these patches, rebased on current HEAD.

It has previously worked for NFS but that broke a few releases back. This series changes to use a new ->swap_rw rather than ->readpage and ->direct_IO. It also makes other improvements. There is a companion series already in linux-next which fixes various issues with NFS. Once both series land, a final patch is needed which changes NFS over to use ->swap_rw.
