mm: abstract THP allocation
Patch series "Do not shatter hugezeropage on wp-fault", v7. It was observed at [1] and [2] that the current kernel behaviour of shattering a hugezeropage is inconsistent and suboptimal. For a VMA with a THP allowable order, when we write-fault on it, the kernel installs a PMD-mapped THP. On the other hand, if we first get a read fault, we get a PMD pointing to the hugezeropage; subsequent write will trigger a write-protection fault, shattering the hugezeropage into one writable page, and all the other PTEs write-protected. The conclusion being, as compared to the case of a single write-fault, applications have to suffer 512 extra page faults if they were to use the VMA as such, plus we get the overhead of khugepaged trying to replace that area with a THP anyway. Instead, replace the hugezeropage with a THP on wp-fault. [1]: https://lore.kernel.org/all/3743d7e1-0b79-4eaf-82d5-d1ca29fe347d@arm.com/ [2]: https://lore.kernel.org/all/1cfae0c0-96a2-4308-9c62-f7a640520242@arm.com/ This patch (of 2): In preparation for the second patch, abstract away the THP allocation logic present in the create_huge_pmd() path, which corresponds to the faulting case when no page is present. There should be no functional change as a result of applying this patch, except that, as David notes at [1], a PMD-aligned address should be passed to update_mmu_cache_pmd().

mm/thp: fix deferred split unqueue naming and locking
Recent changes are putting more pressure on THP deferred split queues: under load revealing long-standing races, causing list_del corruptions, "Bad page state"s and worse (I keep BUGs in both of those, so usually don't get to see how badly they end up without). The relevant recent changes being 6.8's mTHP, 6.10's mTHP swapout, and 6.12's mTHP swapin, improved swap allocation, and underused THP splitting. Before fixing locking: rename misleading folio_undo_large_rmappable(), which does not undo large_rmappable, to folio_unqueue_deferred_split(), which is what it does. But that and its out-of-line __callee are mm internals of very limited usability: add comment and WARN_ON_ONCEs to check usage; and return a bool to say if a deferred split was unqueued, which can then be used in WARN_ON_ONCEs around safety checks (sparing callers the arcane conditionals in __folio_unqueue_deferred_split()). Just omit the folio_unqueue_deferred_split() from free_unref_folios(), all of whose callers now call it beforehand (and if any forget then bad_page() will tell) - except for its caller put_pages_list(), which itself no longer has any callers (and will be deleted separately). Swapout: mem_cgroup_swapout() has been resetting folio->memcg_data 0 without checking and unqueueing a THP folio from deferred split list; which is unfortunate, since the split_queue_lock depends on the memcg (when memcg is enabled); so swapout has been unqueueing such THPs later, when freeing the folio, using the pgdat's lock instead: potentially corrupting the memcg's list. __remove_mapping() has frozen refcount to 0 here, so no problem with calling folio_unqueue_deferred_split() before resetting memcg_data. That goes back to 5.4 commit |

mm/thp: fix deferred split queue not partially_mapped
Recent changes are putting more pressure on THP deferred split queues:
under load revealing long-standing races, causing list_del corruptions,
"Bad page state"s and worse (I keep BUGs in both of those, so usually
don't get to see how badly they end up without). The relevant recent
changes being 6.8's mTHP, 6.10's mTHP swapout, and 6.12's mTHP swapin,
improved swap allocation, and underused THP splitting.
The new unlocked list_del_init() in deferred_split_scan() is buggy. I
gave bad advice, it looks plausible since that's a local on-stack list,
but the fact is that it can race with a third party freeing or migrating
the preceding folio (properly unqueueing it with refcount 0 while holding
split_queue_lock), thereby corrupting the list linkage.
The obvious answer would be to take split_queue_lock there: but it has a
long history of contention, so I'm reluctant to add to that. Instead,
make sure that there is always one safe (raised refcount) folio before, by
delaying its folio_put(). (And of course I was wrong to suggest updating
split_queue_len without the lock: leave that until the splice.)
And remove two over-eager partially_mapped checks, restoring those tests
to how they were before: if uncharge_folio() or free_tail_page_prepare()
finds _deferred_list non-empty, it's in trouble whether or not that folio
is partially_mapped (and the flag was already cleared in the latter case).

mm: huge_memory: add vma_thp_disabled() and thp_disabled_by_hw()
Patch series "mm: don't install PMD mappings when THPs are disabled by the
hw/process/vma".
During testing, it was found that we can get PMD mappings in processes
where THP (and more precisely, PMD mappings) are supposed to be disabled.
While it works as expected for anon+shmem, the pagecache is the
problematic bit.
For s390 KVM this currently means that a VM backed by a file located on
filesystem with large folio support can crash when KVM tries accessing the
problematic page, because the readahead logic might decide to use a
PMD-sized THP and faulting it into the page tables will install a PMD
mapping, something that s390 KVM cannot tolerate.
This might also be a problem with HW that does not support PMD mappings,
but I did not try reproducing it.
Fix it by respecting the ways to disable THPs when deciding whether we can
install a PMD mapping. khugepaged should already be taking care of not
collapsing if THPs are effectively disabled for the hw/process/vma.
This patch (of 2):
Add vma_thp_disabled() and thp_disabled_by_hw() helpers to be shared by
shmem_allowable_huge_orders() and __thp_vma_allowable_orders().
[david@redhat.com: rename to vma_thp_disabled(), split out thp_disabled_by_hw() ]

mm/huge_memory: check pmd_special() only after pmd_present()
We should only check for pmd_special() after we made sure that we have a
present PMD. For example, if we have a migration PMD, pmd_special() might

This fixes confusing migration entries as PFN mappings, and not doing what
we are supposed to do in the "is_swap_pmd()" case further down in the
function -- including messing up COW, page table handling and accounting.

ALong with the usual shower of singleton patches, notable patch series in
this pull request are: "Align kvrealloc() with krealloc()" from Danilo Krummrich. Adds consistency to the APIs and behaviour of these two core allocation functions. This also simplifies/enables Rustification. "Some cleanups for shmem" from Baolin Wang. No functional changes - mode code reuse, better function naming, logic simplifications. "mm: some small page fault cleanups" from Josef Bacik. No functional changes - code cleanups only. "Various memory tiering fixes" from Zi Yan. A small fix and a little cleanup. "mm/swap: remove boilerplate" from Yu Zhao. Code cleanups and simplifications and .text shrinkage. "Kernel stack usage histogram" from Pasha Tatashin and Shakeel Butt.

There has been efforts over the last 16 years to enable enable Large Block Sizes (LBS), that is block sizes in filesystems where bs > page size. Through these efforts we have learned that one of the main blockers to supporting bs > ps in filesystems has been a way to allocate pages that are at least the filesystem block size on the page cache where bs > ps. Thanks to various previous efforts it is possible to support bs > ps in XFS with only a few changes in XFS itself. Most changes are to the page cache to support minimum order folio support for the target block size on the filesystem. A motivation for Large Block Sizes today is to support high-capacity (large amount of Terabytes) QLC SSDs where the internal Indirection Unit (IU) are typically greater than 4k to help reduce DRAM and so in turn cost and space. In practice this then allows different architectures to use a base page size of 4k while still enabling support for block sizes aligned to the larger IUs by relying on high order folios on the page cache when needed. It also allows to take advantage of the drive's support for atomics larger than 4k with buffered IO support in Linux. As described this year at LSFMM, supporting large atomics greater than 4k enables databases to remove the need to rely on their own journaling, so they can disable double buffered writes, which is a feature different cloud providers are already enabling through custom storage solutions" * tag 'vfs-6.12.blocksize' of gitolite.kernel.org:pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs: (22 commits) Documentation: iomap: fix a typo iomap: remove the iomap_file_buffered_write_punch_delalloc return value iomap: pass the iomap to the punch callback iomap: pass flags to iomap_file_buffered_write_punch_delalloc iomap: improve shared block detection in iomap_unshare_iter iomap: handle a post-direct I/O invalidate race in iomap_write_delalloc_release docs:filesystems: fix spelling and grammar mistakes in iomap design page filemap: fix htmldoc warning for mapping_align_index() iomap: make zero range flush conditional on unwritten mappings iomap: fix handling of dirty folios over unwritten extents iomap: add a private argument for iomap_file_buffered_write iomap: remove set_memor_ro() on zero page xfs: enable block size larger than page size support xfs: make the calculation generic in xfs_sb_validate_fsb_count() xfs: expose block size in stat xfs: use kvmalloc for xattr buffers iomap: fix iomap_dio_zero() for fs bs > system page size filemap: cap PTE range to be created to allowed zero fill in folio_map_range() mm: split a folio in minimum folio order chunks readahead: allocate folios with mapping_min_order in readahead ... |

mm/fork: accept huge pfnmap entries
Teach the fork code to properly copy pfnmaps for pmd/pud levels. Pud is much easier, the write bit needs to be persisted though for writable and shared pud mappings like PFNMAP ones, otherwise a follow up write in either parent or child process will trigger a write fault. Do the same for pmd level.

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: introduce a pageflag for partially mapped folios
Currently folio->_deferred_list is used to keep track of partially_mapped folios that are going to be split under memory pressure. In the next patch, all THPs that are faulted in and collapsed by khugepaged are also going to be tracked using _deferred_list. This patch introduces a pageflag to be able to distinguish between partially mapped folios and others in the deferred_list at split time in deferred_split_scan. Its needed as __folio_remove_rmap decrements _mapcount, _large_mapcount and _entire_mapcount, hence it won't be possible to distinguish between partially mapped folios and others in deferred_split_scan. Eventhough it introduces an extra flag to track if the folio is partially mapped, there is no functional change intended with this patch and the flag is not useful in this patch itself, it will become useful in the next patch when _deferred_list has non partially mapped folios.

mm: remap unused subpages to shared zeropage when splitting isolated thp
Patch series "mm: split underused THPs", v5. The current upstream default policy for THP is always. However, Meta uses madvise in production as the current THP=always policy vastly overprovisions THPs in sparsely accessed memory areas, resulting in excessive memory pressure and premature OOM killing. Using madvise + relying on khugepaged has certain drawbacks over THP=always. Using madvise hints mean THPs aren't "transparent" and require userspace changes. Waiting for khugepaged to scan memory and collapse pages into THP can be slow and unpredictable in terms of performance (i.e. you dont know when the collapse will happen), while production environments require predictable performance. If there is enough memory available, its better for both performance and predictability to have a THP from fault time, i.e. THP=always rather than wait for khugepaged to collapse it, and deal with sparsely populated THPs when the system is running out of memory. This patch series 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 or collapsed by khugepaged, the THP is added to a list. Whenever memory reclaim happens, the kernel runs the deferred_split shrinker which goes through the list and 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, 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. This method avoids the downside of wasting memory in areas where THP is sparsely filled when THP is always enabled, while still providing the upside THPs like reduced TLB misses without having to use madvise. Meta production workloads that were CPU bound (>99% CPU utilzation) were tested with THP shrinker. The results after 2 hours are as follows: | THP=madvise | THP=always | THP=always | | | + shrinker series | | | + max_ptes_none=409 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Performance improvement | - | +1.8% | +1.7% (over THP=madvise) | | | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Memory usage | 54.6G | 58.8G (+7.7%) | 55.9G (+2.4%) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- max_ptes_none=409 means that any THP that has more than 409 out of 512 (80%) zero filled filled pages will be split. To test out the patches, the below commands without the shrinker will invoke OOM killer immediately and kill stress, but will not fail with the shrinker: echo 450 > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/khugepaged/max_ptes_none mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/test echo $$ > /sys/fs/cgroup/test/cgroup.procs echo 20M > /sys/fs/cgroup/test/memory.max echo 0 > /sys/fs/cgroup/test/memory.swap.max # allocate twice memory.max for each stress worker and touch 40/512 of # each THP, i.e. vm-stride 50K. # With the shrinker, max_ptes_none of 470 and below won't invoke OOM # killer. # Without the shrinker, OOM killer is invoked immediately irrespective # of max_ptes_none value and kills stress. stress --vm 1 --vm-bytes 40M --vm-stride 50K This patch (of 5): Here being unused means containing only zeros and inaccessible to userspace. When splitting an isolated thp under reclaim or migration, the unused subpages can be mapped to the shared zeropage, hence saving memory. This is particularly helpful when the internal fragmentation of a thp is high, i.e. it has many untouched subpages. This is also a prerequisite for THP low utilization shrinker which will be introduced in later patches, where underutilized THPs are split, and the zero-filled pages are freed saving memory.

mm: count the number of partially mapped anonymous THPs per size
When a THP is added to the deferred_list due to partially mapped, its partial pages are unused, leading to wasted memory and potentially increasing memory reclamation pressure. Detailing the specifics of how unmapping occurs is quite difficult and not that useful, so we adopt a simple approach: each time a THP enters the deferred_list, we increment the count by 1; whenever it leaves for any reason, we decrement the count by 1.

mm: count the number of anonymous THPs per size
Patch series "mm: count the number of anonymous THPs per size", v4. Knowing the number of transparent anon THPs in the system is crucial for performance analysis. It helps in understanding the ratio and distribution of THPs versus small folios throughout the system. Additionally, partial unmapping by userspace can lead to significant waste of THPs over time and increase memory reclamation pressure. We need this information for comprehensive system tuning. This patch (of 2): Let's track for each anonymous THP size, how many of them are currently allocated. We'll track the complete lifespan of an anon THP, starting when it becomes an anon THP ("large anon folio") (->mapping gets set), until it gets freed (->mapping gets cleared). Introduce a new "nr_anon" counter per THP size and adjust the corresponding counter in the following cases: * We allocate a new THP and call folio_add_new_anon_rmap() to map it the first time and turn it into an anon THP. * We split an anon THP into multiple smaller ones. * We migrate an anon THP, when we prepare the destination. * We free an anon THP back to the buddy. Note that AnonPages in /proc/meminfo currently tracks the total number of *mapped* anonymous *pages*, and therefore has slightly different semantics. In the future, we might also want to track "nr_anon_mapped" for each THP size, which might be helpful when comparing it to the number of allocated anon THPs (long-term pinning, stuck in swapcache, memory leaks, ...). Further note that for now, we only track anon THPs after they got their ->mapping set, for example via folio_add_new_anon_rmap(). If we would allocate some in the swapcache, they will only show up in the statistics for now after they have been mapped to user space the first time, where we call folio_add_new_anon_rmap().

mm: tidy up shmem mTHP controls and stats
Previously we had a situation where shmem mTHP controls and stats were not exposed for some supported sizes and were exposed for some unsupported sizes. So let's clean that up. Anon mTHP can support all large orders [2, PMD_ORDER]. But shmem can support all large orders [1, MAX_PAGECACHE_ORDER]. However, per-size shmem controls and stats were previously being exposed for all the anon mTHP orders, meaning order-1 was not present, and for arm64 64K base pages, orders 12 and 13 were exposed but were not supported internally. Tidy this all up by defining ctrl and stats attribute groups for anon and file separately. Anon ctrl and stats groups are populated for all orders in THP_ORDERS_ALL_ANON and file ctrl and stats groups are populated for all orders in THP_ORDERS_ALL_FILE_DEFAULT. Additionally, create "any" ctrl and stats attribute groups which are populated for all orders in (THP_ORDERS_ALL_ANON | THP_ORDERS_ALL_FILE_DEFAULT). swpout stats use this since they apply to anon and shmem. The side-effect of all this is that different hugepage-*kB directories contain different sets of controls and stats, depending on which memory types support that size. This approach is preferred over the alternative, which is to populate dummy controls and stats for memory types that do not support a given size.

mm/mprotect: fix dax pud handlings
This is only relevant to the two archs that support PUD dax, aka, x86_64 and ppc64. PUD THPs do not yet exist elsewhere, and hugetlb PUDs do not count in this case. DAX have had PUD mappings for years, but change protection path never worked. When the path is triggered in any form (a simple test program would be: call mprotect() on a 1G dev_dax mapping), the kernel will report "bad pud". This patch should fix that. The new change_huge_pud() tries to keep everything simple. For example, it doesn't optimize write bit as that will need even more PUD helpers. It's not too bad anyway to have one more write fault in the worst case once for 1G range; may be a bigger thing for each PAGE_SIZE, though. Neither does it support userfault-wp bits, as there isn't such PUD mappings that is supported; file mappings always need a split there. The same to TLB shootdown: the pmd path (which was for x86 only) has the trick of using _ad() version of pmdp_invalidate*() which can avoid one redundant TLB, but let's also leave that for later. Again, the larger the mapping, the smaller of such effect. There's some difference on handling "retry" for change_huge_pud() (where it can return 0): it isn't like change_huge_pmd(), as the pmd version is safe with all conditions handled in change_pte_range() later, thanks to Hugh's new pte_offset_map_lock(). In short, change_pte_range() is simply smarter. For that, change_pud_range() will need proper retry if it races with something else when a huge PUD changed from under us. The last thing to mention is currently the PUD path ignores the huge pte numa counter (NUMA_HUGE_PTE_UPDATES), not only because DAX is not applicable to NUMA, but also that it's ambiguous on its own to decide how to account pud in this case. In one earlier version of this patchset I proposed to remove the counter as it doesn't even look right to do the accounting as of now [1], but then a further discussion suggests we can leave that for later, as that doesn't block this series if we choose to ignore that counter. That's what this patch does, by ignoring it. When at it, touch up the comment in pgtable_split_needed() to make it generic to either pmd or pud file THPs.

memory tiering: introduce folio_use_access_time() check

memory tiering: read last_cpupid correctly in do_huge_pmd_numa_page()
Patch series "Various memory tiering fixes", v3.
This patch (of 3):
last_cpupid is only available when memory tiering is off or the folio is
in toptier node. Complete the check to read last_cpupid when it is
available.
Before the fix, the default last_cpupid will be used even if memory
tiering mode is turned off at runtime instead of the actual value. This
can prevent task_numa_fault() from getting right numa fault stats, but
should not cause any crash. User might see performance changes after the
fix.

mm: shmem: rename mTHP shmem counters
The legacy PMD-sized THP counters at /proc/vmstat include thp_file_alloc,
thp_file_fallback and thp_file_fallback_charge, which rather confusingly
refer to shmem THP and do not include any other types of file pages. This
is inconsistent since in most other places in the kernel, THP counters are
explicitly separated for anon, shmem and file flavours. However, we are
stuck with it since it constitutes a user ABI.

After the commit 7fb1b252afb5 ("mm: shmem: add mTHP support for anonymous shmem"), we can configure different policies through the multi-size THP sysfs interface for anonymous shmem. But currently "THPeligible" indicates only whether the mapping is eligible for allocating THP-pages as well as the THP is PMD mappable or not for anonymous shmem, we need to support semantics for mTHP with anonymous shmem similar to those for mTHP with anonymous 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

Per the analysis done by yangge, when starting the SEV virtual machine, it
will call pin_user_pages_fast(..., FOLL_LONGTERM, ...) to pin the memory.
But the page is in CMA area, so fast GUP will fail then fallback to the
slow path due to the longterm pinnalbe check in try_grab_folio().
The slow path will try to pin the pages then migrate them out of CMA area.
But the slow path also uses try_grab_folio() to pin the page, it will
also fail due to the same check then the above warning is triggered.
In addition, the try_grab_folio() is supposed to be used in fast path and
it elevates folio refcount by using add ref unless zero. We are guaranteed
to have at least one stable reference in slow path, so the simple atomic add
could be used. The performance difference should be trivial, but the
misuse may be confusing and misleading.
Redefined try_grab_folio() to try_grab_folio_fast(), and try_grab_page()
to try_grab_folio(), and use them in the proper paths. This solves both
the abuse and the kernel warning.
The proper naming makes their usecase more clear and should prevent from
abusing in the future.

mm/migrate: move NUMA hinting fault folio isolation + checks under PTL
Currently we always take a folio reference even if migration will not even be tried or isolation failed, requiring us to grab+drop an additional reference. Further, we end up calling folio_likely_mapped_shared() while the folio might have already been unmapped, because after we dropped the PTL, that can easily happen. We want to stop touching mapcounts and friends from such context, and only call folio_likely_mapped_shared() while the folio is still mapped: mapcount information is pretty much stale and unreliable otherwise. So let's move checks into numamigrate_isolate_folio(), rename that function to migrate_misplaced_folio_prepare(), and call that function from callsites where we call migrate_misplaced_folio(), but still with the PTL held. We can now stop taking temporary folio references, and really only take a reference if folio isolation succeeded. Doing the folio_likely_mapped_shared() + folio isolation under PT lock is now similar to how we handle MADV_PAGEOUT. While at it, combine the folio_is_file_lru() checks.

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.

mm/vmscan: avoid split lazyfree THP during shrink_folio_list()
When the user no longer requires the pages, they would use madvise(MADV_FREE) to mark the pages as lazy free. Subsequently, they typically would not re-write to that memory again. During memory reclaim, if we detect that the large folio and its PMD are both still marked as clean and there are no unexpected references (such as GUP), so we can just discard the memory lazily, improving the efficiency of memory reclamation in this case.

mm: shmem: add multi-size THP sysfs interface for anonymous shmem
To support the use of mTHP with anonymous shmem, add a new sysfs interface 'shmem_enabled' in the '/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/hugepages-kB/' directory for each mTHP to control whether shmem is enabled for that mTHP, with a value similar to the top level 'shmem_enabled', which can be set to: "always", "inherit (to inherit the top level setting)", "within_size", "advise", "never". An 'inherit' option is added to ensure compatibility with these global settings, and the options 'force' and 'deny' are dropped, which are rather testing artifacts from the old ages. By default, PMD-sized hugepages have enabled="inherit" and all other hugepage sizes have enabled="never" for '/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/hugepages-xxkB/shmem_enabled'. In addition, if top level value is 'force', then only PMD-sized hugepages have enabled="inherit", otherwise configuration will be failed and vice versa. That means now we will avoid using non-PMD sized THP to override the global huge allocation.

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.

mm: huge_memory: fix misused mapping_large_folio_support() for anon folios
When I did a large folios split test, a WARNING "[ 5059.122759][ T166]
Cannot split file folio to non-0 order" was triggered. But the test cases
are only for anonmous folios. while mapping_large_folio_support() is only
reasonable for page cache folios.
In split_huge_page_to_list_to_order(), the folio passed to
mapping_large_folio_support() maybe anonmous folio. The folio_test_anon()
check is missing. So the split of the anonmous THP is failed. This is
also the same for shmem_mapping(). We'd better add a check for both. But
the shmem_mapping() in __split_huge_page() is not involved, as for
anonmous folios, the end parameter is set to -1, so (head[i].index >= end)
is always false. shmem_mapping() is not called.
Also add a VM_WARN_ON_ONCE() in mapping_large_folio_support() for anon
mapping, So we can detect the wrong use more easily.
THP folios maybe exist in the pagecache even the file system doesn't
support large folio, it is because when CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE is
enabled, khugepaged will try to collapse read-only file-backed pages to
THP. But the mapping does not actually support multi order large folios
properly.
Using /sys/kernel/debug/split_huge_pages to verify this, with this patch,
large anon THP is successfully split and the warning is ceased.

The mTHP swap related counters: 'anon_swpout' and 'anon_swpout_fallback' are confusing with an 'anon_' prefix, since the shmem can swap out non-anonymous pages. So drop the 'anon_' prefix to keep consistent with the old swap counter names. This is needed in 6.10-rcX to avoid having an inconsistent ABI out in the field.

mm: fix race between __split_huge_pmd_locked() and GUP-fast
__split_huge_pmd_locked() can be called for a present THP, devmap or
(non-present) migration entry. It calls pmdp_invalidate() unconditionally
on the pmdp and only determines if it is present or not based on the
returned old pmd. This is a problem for the migration entry case because
pmd_mkinvalid(), called by pmdp_invalidate() must only be called for a
present pmd.
On arm64 at least, pmd_mkinvalid() will mark the pmd such that any future
call to pmd_present() will return true. And therefore any lockless
pgtable walker could see the migration entry pmd in this state and start
interpretting the fields as if it were present, leading to BadThings (TM).
GUP-fast appears to be one such lockless pgtable walker.
x86 does not suffer the above problem, but instead pmd_mkinvalid() will
corrupt the offset field of the swap entry within the swap pte. See link
below for discussion of that problem.
Fix all of this by only calling pmdp_invalidate() for a present pmd. And
for good measure let's add a warning to all implementations of
pmdp_invalidate[_ad](). I've manually reviewed all other
pmdp_invalidate[_ad]() call sites and believe all others to be conformant.
This is a theoretical bug found during code review. I don't have any test
case to trigger it in practice.

mm: delay the check for a NULL anon_vma
Instead of checking the anon_vma early in the fault path where all page faults pay the cost, delay it until we know we're going to need the anon_vma to be filled in. This will have a slight negative effect on the first fault in an anonymous VMA, but it shortens every other page fault. It also makes the code slightly cleaner as the anon and file backed fault handling look more similar. The Intel kernel test bot reports a 3x improvement in vm-scalability throughput with the small-allocs-mt test. This is clearly an extreme situation that won't be replicated in any real-world workload, but it's a nice win. https://lore.kernel.org/all/202404261055.c5e24608-oliver.sang@intel.com/ Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20240426144506.1290619-3-willy@infradead.org Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) <willy@infradead.org> Reviewed-by: Suren Baghdasaryan <surenb@google.com> Cc: David Hildenbrand <david@redhat.com> Cc: Jann Horn <jannh@google.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> |

mm: add per-order mTHP anon_fault_alloc and anon_fault_fallback counters
Patch series "mm: add per-order mTHP alloc and swpout counters", v6. The patchset introduces a framework to facilitate mTHP counters, starting with the allocation and swap-out counters. Currently, only four new nodes are appended to the stats directory for each mTHP size. /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/hugepages-<size>/stats anon_fault_alloc anon_fault_fallback anon_fault_fallback_charge anon_swpout anon_swpout_fallback These nodes are crucial for us to monitor the fragmentation levels of both the buddy system and the swap partitions. In the future, we may consider adding additional nodes for further insights. This patch (of 4): Profiling a system blindly with mTHP has become challenging due to the lack of visibility into its operations. Presenting the success rate of mTHP allocations appears to be pressing need. Recently, I've been experiencing significant difficulty debugging performance improvements and regressions without these figures. It's crucial for us to understand the true effectiveness of mTHP in real-world scenarios, especially in systems with fragmented memory. This patch establishes the framework for per-order mTHP counters. It begins by introducing the anon_fault_alloc and anon_fault_fallback counters. Additionally, to maintain consistency with thp_fault_fallback_charge in /proc/vmstat, this patch also tracks anon_fault_fallback_charge when mem_cgroup_charge fails for mTHP. Incorporating additional counters should now be straightforward as well.

mm: swap: remove CLUSTER_FLAG_HUGE from swap_cluster_info:flags
Patch series "Swap-out mTHP without splitting", v7. This series adds support for swapping out multi-size THP (mTHP) without needing to first split the large folio via split_huge_page_to_list_to_order(). It closely follows the approach already used to swap-out PMD-sized THP. There are a couple of reasons for swapping out mTHP without splitting: - Performance: It is expensive to split a large folio and under extreme memory pressure some workloads regressed performance when using 64K mTHP vs 4K small folios because of this extra cost in the swap-out path. This series not only eliminates the regression but makes it faster to swap out 64K mTHP vs 4K small folios. - Memory fragmentation avoidance: If we can avoid splitting a large folio memory is less likely to become fragmented, making it easier to re-allocate a large folio in future. - Performance: Enables a separate series [7] to swap-in whole mTHPs, which means we won't lose the TLB-efficiency benefits of mTHP once the memory has been through a swap cycle. I've done what I thought was the smallest change possible, and as a result, this approach is only employed when the swap is backed by a non-rotating block device (just as PMD-sized THP is supported today). Discussion against the RFC concluded that this is sufficient. Performance Testing =================== I've run some swap performance tests on Ampere Altra VM (arm64) with 8 CPUs. The VM is set up with a 35G block ram device as the swap device and the test is run from inside a memcg limited to 40G memory. I've then run `usemem` from vm-scalability with 70 processes, each allocating and writing 1G of memory. I've repeated everything 6 times and taken the mean performance improvement relative to 4K page baseline: | alloc size | baseline | + this series | | | mm-unstable (~v6.9-rc1) | | |:-----------|------------------------:|------------------------:| | 4K Page | 0.0% | 1.3% | | 64K THP | -13.6% | 46.3% | | 2M THP | 91.4% | 89.6% | So with this change, the 64K swap performance goes from a 14% regression to a 46% improvement. While 2M shows a small regression I'm confident that this is just noise.

The only use of the flag was to determine whether a swap entry refers to a single page or a PMD-sized THP in swap_page_trans_huge_swapped(). Instead of relying on the flag, we now pass in order, which originates from the folio's order. This allows the logic to work for folios of any order. The one snag is that one of the swap_page_trans_huge_swapped() call sites does not have the folio. But it was only being called there to shortcut a call __try_to_reclaim_swap() in some cases. __try_to_reclaim_swap() gets the folio and (via some other functions) calls swap_page_trans_huge_swapped(). So I've removed the problematic call site and believe the new logic should be functionally equivalent. That said, removing the fast path means that we will take a reference and trylock a large folio much more often, which we would like to avoid. The next patch will solve this. Removing CLUSTER_FLAG_HUGE also means we can remove split_swap_cluster() which used to be called during folio splitting, since split_swap_cluster()'s only job was to remove the flag.

thp: add thp_get_unmapped_area_vmflags()
When memory is being placed, mmap() will take care to respect the guard gaps of certain types of memory (VM_SHADOWSTACK, VM_GROWSUP and VM_GROWSDOWN). In order to ensure guard gaps between mappings, mmap() needs to consider two things: 1. That the new mapping isn't placed in an any existing mappings guard gaps. 2. That the new mapping isn't placed such that any existing mappings are not in *its* guard gaps. The longstanding behavior of mmap() is to ensure 1, but not take any care around 2. So for example, if there is a PAGE_SIZE free area, and a mmap() with a PAGE_SIZE size, and a type that has a guard gap is being placed, mmap() may place the shadow stack in the PAGE_SIZE free area. Then the mapping that is supposed to have a guard gap will not have a gap to the adjacent VMA. Add a THP implementations of the vm_flags variant of get_unmapped_area(). Future changes will call this from mmap.c in the do_mmap() path to allow shadow stacks to be placed with consideration taken for the start guard gap. Shadow stack memory is always private and anonymous and so special guard gap logic is not needed in a lot of caseis, but it can be mapped by THP, so needs to be handled.

mm: switch mm->get_unmapped_area() to a flag
The mm_struct contains a function pointer *get_unmapped_area(), which is set to either arch_get_unmapped_area() or arch_get_unmapped_area_topdown() during the initialization of the mm. Since the function pointer only ever points to two functions that are named the same across all arch's, a function pointer is not really required. In addition future changes will want to add versions of the functions that take additional arguments. So to save a pointers worth of bytes in mm_struct, and prevent adding additional function pointers to mm_struct in future changes, remove it and keep the information about which get_unmapped_area() to use in a flag. Add the new flag to MMF_INIT_MASK so it doesn't get clobbered on fork by mmf_init_flags(). Most MM flags get clobbered on fork. In the pre-existing behavior mm->get_unmapped_area() would get copied to the new mm in dup_mm(), so not clobbering the flag preserves the existing behavior around inheriting the topdown-ness. Introduce a helper, mm_get_unmapped_area(), to easily convert code that refers to the old function pointer to instead select and call either arch_get_unmapped_area() or arch_get_unmapped_area_topdown() based on the flag. Then drop the mm->get_unmapped_area() function pointer. Leave the get_unmapped_area() pointer in struct file_operations alone. The main purpose of this change is to reorganize in preparation for future changes, but it also converts the calls of mm->get_unmapped_area() from indirect branches into a direct ones. The stress-ng bigheap benchmark calls realloc a lot, which calls through get_unmapped_area() in the kernel. On x86, the change yielded a ~1% improvement there on a retpoline config. In testing a few x86 configs, removing the pointer unfortunately didn't result in any actual size reductions in the compiled layout of mm_struct. But depending on compiler or arch alignment requirements, the change could shrink the size of mm_struct.

mm/gup: handle huge pmd for follow_pmd_mask()
Replace pmd_trans_huge() with pmd_leaf() to also cover pmd_huge() as long as enabled. FOLL_TOUCH and FOLL_SPLIT_PMD only apply to THP, not yet huge. Since now follow_trans_huge_pmd() can process hugetlb pages, renaming it into follow_huge_pmd() to match what it does. Move it into gup.c so not depend on CONFIG_THP. When at it, move the ctx->page_mask setup into follow_huge_pmd(), only set it when the page is valid. It was not a bug to set it before even if GUP failed (page==NULL), because follow_page_mask() callers always ignores page_mask if so. But doing so makes the code cleaner.

mm/gup: handle huge pud for follow_pud_mask()
Teach follow_pud_mask() to be able to handle normal PUD pages like hugetlb. Rename follow_devmap_pud() to follow_huge_pud() so that it can process either huge devmap or hugetlb. Move it out of TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE_PUD and and huge_memory.c (which relies on CONFIG_THP). Switch to pud_leaf() to detect both cases in the slow gup. In the new follow_huge_pud(), taking care of possible CoR for hugetlb if necessary. touch_pud() needs to be moved out of huge_memory.c to be accessable from gup.c even if !THP. Since at it, optimize the non-present check by adding a pud_present() early check before taking the pgtable lock, failing the follow_page() early if PUD is not present: that is required by both devmap or hugetlb. Use pud_huge() to also cover the pud_devmap() case. One more trivial thing to mention is, introduce "pud_t pud" in the code paths along the way, so the code doesn't dereference *pudp multiple time. Not only because that looks less straightforward, but also because if the dereference really happened, it's not clear whether there can be race to see different *pudp values when it's being modified at the same time. Setting ctx->page_mask properly for a PUD entry. As a side effect, this patch should also be able to optimize devmap GUP on PUD to be able to jump over the whole PUD range, but not yet verified. Hugetlb already can do so prior to this patch.

mm: convert folio_estimated_sharers() to folio_likely_mapped_shared()
Callers of folio_estimated_sharers() only care about "mapped shared vs. mapped exclusively", not the exact estimate of sharers. Let's consolidate and unify the condition users are checking. While at it clarify the semantics and extend the discussion on the fuzziness. Use the "likely mapped shared" terminology to better express what the (adjusted) function actually checks. Whether a partially-mappable folio is more likely to not be partially mapped than partially mapped is debatable. In the future, we might be able to improve our estimate for partially-mappable folios, though. Note that we will now consistently detect "mapped shared" only if the first subpage is actually mapped multiple times. When the first subpage is not mapped, we will consistently detect it as "mapped exclusively". This change should currently only affect the usage in madvise_free_pte_range() and queue_folios_pte_range() for large folios: if the first page was already unmapped, we would have skipped the folio.

The big effects of this patch series are: - folio_test_hugetlb() becomes reliable, even when called without a page reference - We free up PG_slab, and we could always use more page flags - We no longer need to check PageSlab before calling page_mapcount() This patch (of 9): For compound pages which are at least order-2 (and hence have a deferred_list), initialise it and then we can check at free that the page is not part of a deferred list.

No functional change in this patch.

mm/huge_memory: skip invalid debugfs new_order input for folio split
User can put arbitrary new_order via debugfs for folio split test. Although new_order check is added to split_huge_page_to_list_order() in the prior commit, these two additional checks can avoid unnecessary folio locking and split_folio_to_order() calls.

mm/huge_memory: check new folio order when split a folio
A folio can only be split into lower orders.
Since there are no new_order checks in debugfs, any new_order can be
passed via debugfs into split_huge_page_to_list_to_order().
Check new_order to make sure it is smaller than input folio order.

mm: use folio more widely in __split_huge_page
We already have a folio; use it instead of the head page where reasonable. Saves a couple of calls to compound_head() and elimimnates a few references to page->mapping.
