Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton: - The series "Enable strict percpu address space checks" from Uros Bizjak uses x86 named address space qualifiers to provide compile-time checking of percpu area accesses. This has caused a small amount of fallout - two or three issues were reported. In all cases the calling code was found to be incorrect. - The series "Some cleanup for memcg" from Chen Ridong implements some relatively monir cleanups for the memcontrol code. - The series "mm: fixes for device-exclusive entries (hmm)" from David Hildenbrand fixes a boatload of issues which David found then using device-exclusive PTE entries when THP is enabled. More work is needed, but this makes thins better - our own HMM selftests now succeed. - The series "mm: zswap: remove z3fold and zbud" from Yosry Ahmed remove the z3fold and zbud implementations. They have been deprecated for half a year and nobody has complained. - The series "mm: further simplify VMA merge operation" from Lorenzo Stoakes implements numerous simplifications in this area. No runtime effects are anticipated. - The series "mm/madvise: remove redundant mmap_lock operations from process_madvise()" from SeongJae Park rationalizes the locking in the madvise() implementation. Performance gains of 20-25% were observed in one MADV_DONTNEED microbenchmark. - The series "Tiny cleanup and improvements about SWAP code" from Baoquan He contains a number of touchups to issues which Baoquan noticed when working on the swap code. - The series "mm: kmemleak: Usability improvements" from Catalin Marinas implements a couple of improvements to the kmemleak user-visible output. - The series "mm/damon/paddr: fix large folios access and schemes handling" from Usama Arif provides a couple of fixes for DAMON's handling of large folios. - The series "mm/damon/core: fix wrong and/or useless damos_walk() behaviors" from SeongJae Park fixes a few issues with the accuracy of kdamond's walking of DAMON regions. - The series "expose mapping wrprotect, fix fb_defio use" from Lorenzo Stoakes changes the interaction between framebuffer deferred-io and core MM. No functional changes are anticipated - this is preparatory work for the future removal of page structure fields. - The series "mm/damon: add support for hugepage_size DAMOS filter" from Usama Arif adds a DAMOS filter which permits the filtering by huge page sizes. - The series "mm: permit guard regions for file-backed/shmem mappings" from Lorenzo Stoakes extends the guard region feature from its present "anon mappings only" state. The feature now covers shmem and file-backed mappings. - The series "mm: batched unmap lazyfree large folios during reclamation" from Barry Song cleans up and speeds up the unmapping for pte-mapped large folios. - The series "reimplement per-vma lock as a refcount" from Suren Baghdasaryan puts the vm_lock back into the vma. Our reasons for pulling it out were largely bogus and that change made the code more messy. This patchset provides small (0-10%) improvements on one microbenchmark. - The series "Docs/mm/damon: misc DAMOS filters documentation fixes and improves" from SeongJae Park does some maintenance work on the DAMON docs. - The series "hugetlb/CMA improvements for large systems" from Frank van der Linden addresses a pile of issues which have been observed when using CMA on large machines. - The series "mm/damon: introduce DAMOS filter type for unmapped pages" from SeongJae Park enables users of DMAON/DAMOS to filter my the page's mapped/unmapped status. - The series "zsmalloc/zram: there be preemption" from Sergey Senozhatsky teaches zram to run its compression and decompression operations preemptibly. - The series "selftests/mm: Some cleanups from trying to run them" from Brendan Jackman fixes a pile of unrelated issues which Brendan encountered while runnimg our selftests. - The series "fs/proc/task_mmu: add guard region bit to pagemap" from Lorenzo Stoakes permits userspace to use /proc/pid/pagemap to determine whether a particular page is a guard page. - The series "mm, swap: remove swap slot cache" from Kairui Song removes the swap slot cache from the allocation path - it simply wasn't being effective. - The series "mm: cleanups for device-exclusive entries (hmm)" from David Hildenbrand implements a number of unrelated cleanups in this code. - The series "mm: Rework generic PTDUMP configs" from Anshuman Khandual implements a number of preparatoty cleanups to the GENERIC_PTDUMP Kconfig logic. - The series "mm/damon: auto-tune aggregation interval" from SeongJae Park implements a feedback-driven automatic tuning feature for DAMON's aggregation interval tuning. - The series "Fix lazy mmu mode" from Ryan Roberts fixes some issues in powerpc, sparc and x86 lazy MMU implementations. Ryan did this in preparation for implementing lazy mmu mode for arm64 to optimize vmalloc. - The series "mm/page_alloc: Some clarifications for migratetype fallback" from Brendan Jackman reworks some commentary to make the code easier to follow. - The series "page_counter cleanup and size reduction" from Shakeel Butt cleans up the page_counter code and fixes a size increase which we accidentally added late last year. - The series "Add a command line option that enables control of how many threads should be used to allocate huge pages" from Thomas Prescher does that. It allows the careful operator to significantly reduce boot time by tuning the parallalization of huge page initialization. - The series "Fix calculations in trace_balance_dirty_pages() for cgwb" from Tang Yizhou fixes the tracing output from the dirty page balancing code. - The series "mm/damon: make allow filters after reject filters useful and intuitive" from SeongJae Park improves the handling of allow and reject filters. Behaviour is made more consistent and the documention is updated accordingly. - The series "Switch zswap to object read/write APIs" from Yosry Ahmed updates zswap to the new object read/write APIs and thus permits the removal of some legacy code from zpool and zsmalloc. - The series "Some trivial cleanups for shmem" from Baolin Wang does as it claims. - The series "fs/dax: Fix ZONE_DEVICE page reference counts" from Alistair Popple regularizes the weird ZONE_DEVICE page refcount handling in DAX, permittig the removal of a number of special-case checks. - The series "refactor mremap and fix bug" from Lorenzo Stoakes is a preparatoty refactoring and cleanup of the mremap() code. - The series "mm: MM owner tracking for large folios (!hugetlb) + CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT" from David Hildenbrand reworks the manner in which we determine whether a large folio is known to be mapped exclusively into a single MM. - The series "mm/damon: add sysfs dirs for managing DAMOS filters based on handling layers" from SeongJae Park adds a couple of new sysfs directories to ease the management of DAMON/DAMOS filters. - The series "arch, mm: reduce code duplication in mem_init()" from Mike Rapoport consolidates many per-arch implementations of mem_init() into code generic code, where that is practical. - The series "mm/damon/sysfs: commit parameters online via damon_call()" from SeongJae Park continues the cleaning up of sysfs access to DAMON internal data. - The series "mm: page_ext: Introduce new iteration API" from Luiz Capitulino reworks the page_ext initialization to fix a boot-time crash which was observed with an unusual combination of compile and cmdline options. - The series "Buddy allocator like (or non-uniform) folio split" from Zi Yan reworks the code to split a folio into smaller folios. The main benefit is lessened memory consumption: fewer post-split folios are generated. - The series "Minimize xa_node allocation during xarry split" from Zi Yan reduces the number of xarray xa_nodes which are generated during an xarray split. - The series "drivers/base/memory: Two cleanups" from Gavin Shan performs some maintenance work on the drivers/base/memory code. - The series "Add tracepoints for lowmem reserves, watermarks and totalreserve_pages" from Martin Liu adds some more tracepoints to the page allocator code. - The series "mm/madvise: cleanup requests validations and classifications" from SeongJae Park cleans up some warts which SeongJae observed during his earlier madvise work. - The series "mm/hwpoison: Fix regressions in memory failure handling" from Shuai Xue addresses two quite serious regressions which Shuai has observed in the memory-failure implementation. - The series "mm: reliable huge page allocator" from Johannes Weiner makes huge page allocations cheaper and more reliable by reducing fragmentation. - The series "Minor memcg cleanups & prep for memdescs" from Matthew Wilcox is preparatory work for the future implementation of memdescs. - The series "track memory used by balloon drivers" from Nico Pache introduces a way to track memory used by our various balloon drivers. - The series "mm/damon: introduce DAMOS filter type for active pages" from Nhat Pham permits users to filter for active/inactive pages, separately for file and anon pages. - The series "Adding Proactive Memory Reclaim Statistics" from Hao Jia separates the proactive reclaim statistics from the direct reclaim statistics. - The series "mm/vmscan: don't try to reclaim hwpoison folio" from Jinjiang Tu fixes our handling of hwpoisoned pages within the reclaim code. * tag 'mm-stable-2025-03-30-16-52' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm: (431 commits) mm/page_alloc: remove unnecessary __maybe_unused in order_to_pindex() x86/mm: restore early initialization of high_memory for 32-bits mm/vmscan: don't try to reclaim hwpoison folio mm/hwpoison: introduce folio_contain_hwpoisoned_page() helper cgroup: docs: add pswpin and pswpout items in cgroup v2 doc mm: vmscan: split proactive reclaim statistics from direct reclaim statistics selftests/mm: speed up split_huge_page_test selftests/mm: uffd-unit-tests support for hugepages > 2M docs/mm/damon/design: document active DAMOS filter type mm/damon: implement a new DAMOS filter type for active pages fs/dax: don't disassociate zero page entries MM documentation: add "Unaccepted" meminfo entry selftests/mm: add commentary about 9pfs bugs fork: use __vmalloc_node() for stack allocation docs/mm: Physical Memory: Populate the "Zones" section xen: balloon: update the NR_BALLOON_PAGES state hv_balloon: update the NR_BALLOON_PAGES state balloon_compaction: update the NR_BALLOON_PAGES state meminfo: add a per node counter for balloon drivers mm: remove references to folio in __memcg_kmem_uncharge_page() ... |

Merge tag 'timers-core-2025-03-23' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull timer core updates from Thomas Gleixner: - Fix a memory ordering issue in posix-timers Posix-timer lookup is lockless and reevaluates the timer validity under the timer lock, but the update which validates the timer is not protected by the timer lock. That allows the store to be reordered against the initialization stores, so that the lookup side can observe a partially initialized timer. That's mostly a theoretical problem, but incorrect nevertheless. - Fix a long standing inconsistency of the coarse time getters The coarse time getters read the base time of the current update cycle without reading the actual hardware clock. NTP frequency adjustment can set the base time backwards. The fine grained interfaces compensate this by reading the clock and applying the new conversion factor, but the coarse grained time getters use the base time directly. That allows the user to observe time going backwards. Cure it by always forwarding base time, when NTP changes the frequency with an immediate step. - Rework of posix-timer hashing The posix-timer hash is not scalable and due to the CRIU timer restore mechanism prone to massive contention on the global hash bucket lock. Replace the global hash lock with a fine grained per bucket locking scheme to address that. - Rework the proc/$PID/timers interface. /proc/$PID/timers is provided for CRIU to be able to restore a timer. The printout happens with sighand lock held and interrupts disabled. That's not required as this can be done with RCU protection as well. - Provide a sane mechanism for CRIU to restore a timer ID CRIU restores timers by creating and deleting them until the kernel internal per process ID counter reached the requested ID. That's horribly slow for sparse timer IDs. Provide a prctl() which allows CRIU to restore a timer with a given ID. When enabled the ID pointer is used as input pointer to read the requested ID from user space. When disabled, the normal allocation scheme (next ID) is active as before. This is backwards compatible for both kernel and user space. - Make hrtimer_update_function() less expensive. The sanity checks are valuable, but expensive for high frequency usage in io/uring. Make the debug checks conditional and enable them only when lockdep is enabled. - Small updates, cleanups and improvements * tag 'timers-core-2025-03-23' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (27 commits) selftests/timers: Improve skew_consistency by testing with other clockids timekeeping: Fix possible inconsistencies in _COARSE clockids posix-timers: Drop redundant memset() invocation selftests/timers/posix-timers: Add a test for exact allocation mode posix-timers: Provide a mechanism to allocate a given timer ID posix-timers: Dont iterate /proc/$PID/timers with sighand:: Siglock held posix-timers: Make per process list RCU safe posix-timers: Avoid false cacheline sharing posix-timers: Switch to jhash32() posix-timers: Improve hash table performance posix-timers: Make signal_struct:: Next_posix_timer_id an atomic_t posix-timers: Make lock_timer() use guard() posix-timers: Rework timer removal posix-timers: Simplify lock/unlock_timer() posix-timers: Use guards in a few places posix-timers: Remove SLAB_PANIC from kmem cache posix-timers: Remove a few paranoid warnings posix-timers: Cleanup includes posix-timers: Add cond_resched() to posix_timer_add() search loop posix-timers: Initialise timer before adding it to the hash table ... |

meminfo: add a per node counter for balloon drivers
Patch series "track memory used by balloon drivers", v2. This series introduces a way to track memory used by balloon drivers. Add a NR_BALLOON_PAGES counter to track how many pages are reclaimed by the balloon drivers. First add the accounting, then updates the balloon drivers (virtio, Hyper-V, VMware, Pseries-cmm, and Xen) to maintain this counter. The virtio, Vmware, and pseries-cmm balloon drivers utilize the balloon_compaction interface to allocate and free balloon pages. Other balloon drivers will have to maintain this counter manually. This makes the information visible in memory reporting interfaces like /proc/meminfo, show_mem, and OOM reporting. This provides admins visibility into their VM balloon sizes without requiring different virtualization tooling. Furthermore, this information is helpful when debugging an OOM inside a VM. This patch (of 4): Add NR_BALLOON_PAGES counter to track memory used by balloon drivers and expose it through /proc/meminfo and other memory reporting interfaces.

fs/proc/task_mmu: remove per-page mapcount dependency for smaps/smaps_rollup (CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT)
Let's implement an alternative when per-page mapcounts in large folios are
no longer maintained -- soon with CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT.
When computing the output for smaps / smaps_rollups, in particular when
calculating the USS (Unique Set Size) and the PSS (Proportional Set Size),
we still rely on per-page mapcounts.
To determine private vs. shared, we'll use folio_likely_mapped_shared(),
similar to how we handle PM_MMAP_EXCLUSIVE. Similarly, we might now
under-estimate the USS and count pages towards "shared" that are actually
"private" ("exclusively mapped").
When calculating the PSS, we'll now also use the average per-page mapcount
for large folios: this can result in both, an over-estimation and an
under-estimation of the PSS. The difference is not expected to matter
much in practice, but we'll have to learn as we go.
We can now provide folio_precise_page_mapcount() only with
CONFIG_PAGE_MAPCOUNT, and remove one of the last users of per-page
mapcounts when CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT is enabled.
Document the new behavior.

fs/proc/task_mmu: remove per-page mapcount dependency for "mapmax" (CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT)
Let's implement an alternative when per-page mapcounts in large folios are no longer maintained -- soon with CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT. For calculating "mapmax", we now use the average per-page mapcount in a large folio instead of the per-page mapcount. For hugetlb folios and folios that are not partially mapped into MMs, there is no change. Likely, this change will not matter much in practice, and an alternative might be to simple remove this stat with CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT. However, there might be value to it, so let's keep it like that and document the behavior.

PM_MMAP_EXCLUSIVE will now be set if folio_likely_mapped_shared() is true -- when the folio is considered "mapped shared", including when it once was "mapped shared" but no longer is, as documented. This might result in and under-indication of "exclusively mapped", which is considered better than over-indicating it: under-estimating the USS (Unique Set Size) is better than over-estimating it. As an alternative, we could simply remove that flag with CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT completely, but there might be value to it. So, let's keep it like that and document the behavior.

fs/proc/page: remove per-page mapcount dependency for /proc/kpagecount (CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT)
Let's implement an alternative when per-page mapcounts in large folios are no longer maintained -- soon with CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT. For large folios, we'll return the per-page average mapcount within the folio, whereby we round to the closest integer when calculating the average: however, we'll always return at least 1 if the folio is mapped. So assuming a folio with 512 pages, the average would be: * 0 if not pages are mapped * 1 if there are 1 .. 767 per-page mappings * 2 if there are 767 .. 1279 per-page mappings ... For hugetlb folios and for large folios that are fully mapped into all address spaces, there is no change. We'll make use of this helper in other context next. As an alternative, we could simply return 0 for non-hugetlb large folios, or disable this legacy interface with CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT. But the information exposed by this interface can still be valuable, and frequently we deal with fully-mapped large folios where the average corresponds to the actual page mapcount. So we'll leave it like this for now and document the new behavior. Note: this interface is likely not very relevant for performance. If ever required, we could try doing a rather expensive rmap walk to collect precisely how often this folio page is mapped.

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

fs/proc/task_mmu: reduce scope of lazy mmu region
Update the way arch_[enter|leave]_lazy_mmu_mode() is called in pagemap_scan_pmd_entry() to follow the normal pattern of holding the ptl for user space mappings. As a result the scope is reduced to only the pte table, but that's where most of the performance win is. While I believe there wasn't technically a bug here, the original scope made it easier to accidentally nest or, worse, accidentally call something like kmap() which would expect an immediate mode pte modification but it would end up deferred.

fs/proc/task_mmu: add guard region bit to pagemap
Patch series "fs/proc/task_mmu: add guard region bit to pagemap". Currently there is no means of determining whether a given page in a mapping range is designated a guard region (as installed via madvise() using the MADV_GUARD_INSTALL flag). This is generally not an issue, but in some instances users may wish to determine whether this is the case. This series adds this ability via /proc/$pid/pagemap, updates the documentation and adds a self test to assert that this functions correctly. This patch (of 2): Currently there is no means by which users can determine whether a given page in memory is in fact a guard region, that is having had the MADV_GUARD_INSTALL madvise() flag applied to it. This is intentional, as to provide this information in VMA metadata would contradict the intent of the feature (providing a means to change fault behaviour at a page table level rather than a VMA level), and would require VMA metadata operations to scan page tables, which is unacceptable. In many cases, users have no need to reflect and determine what regions have been designated guard regions, as it is the user who has established them in the first place. But in some instances, such as monitoring software, or software that relies upon being able to ascertain the nature of mappings within a remote process for instance, it becomes useful to be able to determine which pages have the guard region marker applied. This patch makes use of an unused pagemap bit (58) to provide this information. This patch updates the documentation at the same time as making the change such that the implementation of the feature and the documentation of it are tied together.

proc: fix UAF in proc_get_inode()
Fix race between rmmod and /proc/XXX's inode instantiation.
The bug is that pde->proc_ops don't belong to /proc, it belongs to a
module, therefore dereferencing it after /proc entry has been registered
is a bug unless use_pde/unuse_pde() pair has been used.
use_pde/unuse_pde can be avoided (2 atomic ops!) because pde->proc_ops
never changes so information necessary for inode instantiation can be
saved _before_ proc_register() in PDE itself and used later, avoiding
pde->proc_ops->... dereference.

posix-timers: Dont iterate /proc/$PID/timers with sighand:: Siglock held
The readout of /proc/$PID/timers holds sighand::siglock with interrupts disabled. That is required to protect against concurrent modifications of the task::signal::posix_timers list because the list is not RCU safe. With the conversion of the timer storage to a RCU protected hlist, this is not longer required. The only requirement is to protect the returned entry against a concurrent free, which is trivial as the timers are RCU protected. Removing the trylock of sighand::siglock is benign because the life time of task_struct::signal is bound to the life time of the task_struct itself. There are two scenarios where this matters: 1) The process is life and not about to be checkpointed 2) The process is stopped via ptrace for checkpointing #1 is a racy snapshot of the armed timers and nothing can rely on it. It's not more than debug information and it has been that way before because sighand lock is dropped when the buffer is full and the restart of the iteration might find a completely different set of timers. The task and therefore task::signal cannot be freed as timers_start() acquired a reference count via get_pid_task(). #2 the process is stopped for checkpointing so nothing can delete or create timers at this point. Neither can the process exit during the traversal. If CRIU fails to observe an exit in progress prior to the dissimination of the timers, then there are more severe problems to solve in the CRIU mechanics as they can't rely on posix timers being enabled in the first place. Therefore replace the lock acquisition with rcu_read_lock() and switch the timer storage traversal over to seq_hlist_*_rcu().

Pass parent directory inode and expected name to ->d_revalidate()
->d_revalidate() often needs to access dentry parent and name; that has to be done carefully, since the locking environment varies from caller to caller. We are not guaranteed that dentry in question will not be moved right under us - not unless the filesystem is such that nothing on it ever gets renamed. It can be dealt with, but that results in boilerplate code that isn't even needed - the callers normally have just found the dentry via dcache lookup and want to verify that it's in the right place; they already have the values of ->d_parent and ->d_name stable. There is a couple of exceptions (overlayfs and, to less extent, ecryptfs), but for the majority of calls that song and dance is not needed at all. It's easier to make ecryptfs and overlayfs find and pass those values if there's a ->d_revalidate() instance to be called, rather than doing that in the instances. This commit only changes the calling conventions; making use of supplied values is left to followups. NOTE: some instances need more than just the parent - things like CIFS may need to build an entire path from filesystem root, so they need more precautions than the usual boilerplate. This series doesn't do anything to that need - these filesystems have to keep their locking mechanisms (rename_lock loops, use of dentry_path_raw(), private rwsem a-la v9fs). One thing to keep in mind when using name is that name->name will normally point into the pathname being resolved; the filename in question occupies name->len bytes starting at name->name, and there is NUL somewhere after it, but it the next byte might very well be '/' rather than '\0'. Do not ignore name->len. Reviewed-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Gabriel Krisman Bertazi <gabriel@krisman.be> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> |

fs/proc/vmcore: introduce PROC_VMCORE_DEVICE_RAM to detect device RAM ranges in 2nd kernel
s390 allocates+prepares the elfcore hdr in the dump (2nd) kernel, not in the crashed kernel. RAM provided by memory devices such as virtio-mem can only be detected using the device driver; when vmcore_init() is called, these device drivers are usually not loaded yet, or the devices did not get probed yet. Consequently, on s390 these RAM ranges will not be included in the crash dump, which makes the dump partially corrupt and is unfortunate. Instead of deferring the vmcore_init() call, to an (unclear?) later point, let's reuse the vmcore_cb infrastructure to obtain device RAM ranges as the device drivers probe the device and get access to this information. Then, we'll add these ranges to the vmcore, adding more PT_LOAD entries and updating the offsets+vmcore size. Use a separate Kconfig option to be set by an architecture to include this code only if the arch really needs it. Further, we'll make the config depend on the relevant drivers (i.e., virtio_mem) once they implement support (next). The alternative of having a PROVIDE_PROC_VMCORE_DEVICE_RAM config option was dropped for now for simplicity. The current target use case is s390, which only creates an elf64 elfcore, so focusing on elf64 is sufficient.

fs/proc/vmcore: disallow vmcore modifications while the vmcore is open
The vmcoredd_update_size() call and its effects (size/offset changes) are currently completely unsynchronized, and will cause trouble when performed concurrently, or when done while someone is already reading the vmcore. Let's protect all vmcore modifications by the vmcore_mutex, disallow vmcore modifications while the vmcore is open, and warn on vmcore modifications after the vmcore was already opened once: modifications while the vmcore is open are unsafe, and modifications after the vmcore was opened indicates trouble. Properly synchronize against concurrent opening of the vmcore. No need to grab the mutex during mmap()/read(): after we opened the vmcore, modifications are impossible. It's worth noting that modifications after the vmcore was opened are completely unexpected, so failing if open, and warning if already opened (+closed again) is good enough. This change not only handles concurrent adding of device dumps + concurrent reading of the vmcore properly, it also prepares for other mechanisms that will modify the vmcore.

fs/proc/vmcore: replace vmcoredd_mutex by vmcore_mutex
Now that we have a mutex that synchronizes against opening of the vmcore, let's use that one to replace vmcoredd_mutex: there is no need to have two separate ones. This is a preparation for properly preventing vmcore modifications after the vmcore was opened.

fs/proc/vmcore: convert vmcore_cb_lock into vmcore_mutex
We want to protect vmcore modifications from concurrent opening of
the vmcore, and also serialize vmcore modification.
(a) We can currently modify the vmcore after it was opened. This can happen
if a vmcoredd is added after the vmcore module was initialized and
already opened by user space. We want to fix that and prepare for
new code wanting to serialize against concurrent opening.
(b) To handle it cleanly we need to protect the modifications against
concurrent opening. As the modifications end up allocating memory and
can sleep, we cannot rely on the spinlock.
Let's convert the spinlock into a mutex to prepare for further changes.

ksm: add ksm involvement information for each process
In /proc/<pid>/ksm_stat, add two extra ksm involvement items including
KSM_mergeable and KSM_merge_any. It helps administrators to better know
the system's KSM behavior at process level.
ksm_merge_any: yes/no
whether the process'mm is added by prctl() into the candidate list
of KSM or not, and fully enabled at process level.
ksm_mergeable: yes/no
whether any VMAs of the process'mm are currently applicable to KSM.
Purpose
=======
These two items are just to improve the observability of KSM at process
level, so that users can know if a certain process has enabled KSM.
For example, if without these two items, when we look at
/proc/<pid>/ksm_stat and there's no merging pages found, We are not sure
whether it is because KSM was not enabled or because KSM did not
successfully merge any pages.
Although "mg" in /proc/<pid>/smaps indicate VM_MERGEABLE, it's opaque
and not very obvious for non professionals.

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"Features:
- Support caching symlink lengths in inodes
The size is stored in a new union utilizing the same space as
i_devices, thus avoiding growing the struct or taking up any more
space
When utilized it dodges strlen() in vfs_readlink(), giving about
1.5% speed up when issuing readlink on /initrd.img on ext4
- Add RWF_DONTCACHE iocb and FOP_DONTCACHE file_operations flag
If a file system supports uncached buffered IO, it may set
FOP_DONTCACHE and enable support for RWF_DONTCACHE.
If RWF_DONTCACHE is attempted without the file system supporting
it, it'll get errored with -EOPNOTSUPP
- Enable VBOXGUEST and VBOXSF_FS on ARM64
Now that VirtualBox is able to run as a host on arm64 (e.g. the
Apple M3 processors) we can enable VBOXSF_FS (and in turn
VBOXGUEST) for this architecture.
Tested with various runs of bonnie++ and dbench on an Apple MacBook
Pro with the latest Virtualbox 7.1.4 r165100 installed
Cleanups:
- Delay sysctl_nr_open check in expand_files()
- Use kernel-doc includes in fiemap docbook
- Use page->private instead of page->index in watch_queue
- Use a consume fence in mnt_idmap() as it's heavily used in
link_path_walk()
- Replace magic number 7 with ARRAY_SIZE() in fc_log
- Sort out a stale comment about races between fd alloc and dup2()
- Fix return type of do_mount() from long to int
- Various cosmetic cleanups for the lockref code
Fixes:
- Annotate spinning as unlikely() in __read_seqcount_begin

proc/kcore: use percpu_rw_semaphore for kclist_lock
The list of memory ranges for /proc/kcore is protected by a rw_semaphore. We lock it for reading on every read from /proc/kcore. This is very heavy, especially since it is rarely locked for writing. Since we want to strongly favor read lock performance, convert it to a percpu_rw_semaphore. I also experimented with percpu_ref and SRCU, but this change was the simplest and the fastest. In my benchmark, this reduces the time per read by yet another 20 nanoseconds on top of the previous two changes, from 195 nanoseconds per read to 175.

proc/kcore: don't walk list on every read
We maintain a list of memory ranges for /proc/kcore, which usually has 10-20 entries. Currently, every single read from /proc/kcore walks the entire list in order to count the number of entries and compute some offsets. These values only change when the list of memory ranges changes, which is very rare (only when memory is hot(un)plugged). We can cache the values when the list is populated to avoid these redundant walks. In my benchmark, this reduces the time per read by another 20 nanoseconds on top of the previous change, from 215 nanoseconds per read to 195.

proc/kcore: mark proc entry as permanent
drgn reads from /proc/kcore to debug the running kernel. For many drgn scripts, /proc/kcore is actually a bottleneck. use_pde() and unuse_pde() in prog_reg_read() show up hot in profiles. Since the entry for /proc/kcore can never be removed, this is useless overhead that can be trivially avoided by marking the entry as permanent.

Sabyrzhan Tasbolatov completes the migration of the KASAN built-in
tests over to the KUnit framework.
- The series "implement lightweight guard pages" from Lorenzo Stoakes
permits userapace to place fault-generating guard pages within a
single VMA, rather than requiring that multiple VMAs be created for
this. Improved efficiencies for userspace memory allocators are
expected.
- The series "memcg: tracepoint for flushing stats" from JP Kobryn uses
tracepoints to provide increased visibility into memcg stats flushing
activity.

Merge tag 'sysctl-6.13-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sysctl/sysctl
Pull sysctl updates from Joel Granados:
"sysctl ctl_table constification:
- Constifying ctl_table structs prevents the modification of
proc_handler function pointers. All ctl_table struct arguments are
const qualified in the sysctl API in such a way that the ctl_table
arrays being defined elsewhere and passed through sysctl can be
constified one-by-one.
We kick the constification off by qualifying user_table in
kernel/ucount.c and expect all the ctl_tables to be constified in
the coming releases.
Misc fixes:
- Adjust comments in two places to better reflect the code
- Remove superfluous dput calls
- Remove Luis from sysctl maintainership
- Replace comments about holding a lock with calls to
lockdep_assert_held"

fs/proc/kcore.c: Clear ret value in read_kcore_iter after successful iov_iter_zero
If iov_iter_zero succeeds after failed copy_from_kernel_nofault,
we need to reset the ret value to zero otherwise it will be returned
as final return value of read_kcore_iter.
This fixes objdump -d dump over /proc/kcore for me.

Merge tag 'timers-core-2024-11-18' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull timer updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"A rather large update for timekeeping and timers:
- The final step to get rid of auto-rearming posix-timers
posix-timers are currently auto-rearmed by the kernel when the
signal of the timer is ignored so that the timer signal can be
delivered once the corresponding signal is unignored.
This requires to throttle the timer to prevent a DoS by small
intervals and keeps the system pointlessly out of low power states
for no value. This is a long standing non-trivial problem due to
the lock order of posix-timer lock and the sighand lock along with
life time issues as the timer and the sigqueue have different life
time rules.
Cure this by:
- Embedding the sigqueue into the timer struct to have the same
life time rules. Aside of that this also avoids the lookup of
the timer in the signal delivery and rearm path as it's just a
always valid container_of() now.
- Queuing ignored timer signals onto a seperate ignored list.
- Moving queued timer signals onto the ignored list when the
signal is switched to SIG_IGN before it could be delivered.
- Walking the ignored list when SIG_IGN is lifted and requeue the
signals to the actual signal lists. This allows the signal
delivery code to rearm the timer.
This also required to consolidate the signal delivery rules so they
are consistent across all situations. With that all self test
scenarios finally succeed.
- Core infrastructure for VFS multigrain timestamping
This is required to allow the kernel to use coarse grained time
stamps by default and switch to fine grained time stamps when inode
attributes are actively observed via getattr().
These changes have been provided to the VFS tree as well, so that
the VFS specific infrastructure could be built on top.
- Cleanup and consolidation of the sleep() infrastructure
- Move all sleep and timeout functions into one file
- Rework udelay() and ndelay() into proper documented inline
functions and replace the hardcoded magic numbers by proper
defines.
- Rework the fsleep() implementation to take the reality of the
timer wheel granularity on different HZ values into account.
Right now the boundaries are hard coded time ranges which fail
to provide the requested accuracy on different HZ settings.
- Update documentation for all sleep/timeout related functions
and fix up stale documentation links all over the place
- Fixup a few usage sites
- Rework of timekeeping and adjtimex(2) to prepare for multiple PTP
clocks
A system can have multiple PTP clocks which are participating in
seperate and independent PTP clock domains. So far the kernel only
considers the PTP clock which is based on CLOCK TAI relevant as
that's the clock which drives the timekeeping adjustments via the
various user space daemons through adjtimex(2).
The non TAI based clock domains are accessible via the file
descriptor based posix clocks, but their usability is very limited.
They can't be accessed fast as they always go all the way out to
the hardware and they cannot be utilized in the kernel itself.
As Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) gains traction it is required to
provide fast user and kernel space access to these clocks.
The approach taken is to utilize the timekeeping and adjtimex(2)
infrastructure to provide this access in a similar way how the
kernel provides access to clock MONOTONIC, REALTIME etc.
Instead of creating a duplicated infrastructure this rework
converts timekeeping and adjtimex(2) into generic functionality
which operates on pointers to data structures instead of using
static variables.
This allows to provide time accessors and adjtimex(2) functionality
for the independent PTP clocks in a subsequent step.
- Consolidate hrtimer initialization
hrtimers are set up by initializing the data structure and then
seperately setting the callback function for historical reasons.
That's an extra unnecessary step and makes Rust support less
straight forward than it should be.
Provide a new set of hrtimer_setup*() functions and convert the
core code and a few usage sites of the less frequently used
interfaces over.
The bulk of the htimer_init() to hrtimer_setup() conversion is
already prepared and scheduled for the next merge window.
- Drivers:
- Ensure that the global timekeeping clocksource is utilizing the
cluster 0 timer on MIPS multi-cluster systems.
Otherwise CPUs on different clusters use their cluster specific
clocksource which is not guaranteed to be synchronized with
other clusters.
- Mostly boring cleanups, fixes, improvements and code movement"
