When the kernel copies a page from ksm_might_need_to_copy(), but runs into
an uncorrectable error, it will crash since poisoned page is consumed by
kernel, this is similar to the issue recently fixed by Copy-on-write
poison recovery.
When an error is detected during the page copy, return VM_FAULT_HWPOISON
in do_swap_page(), and install a hwpoison entry in unuse_pte() when
swapoff, which help us to avoid system crash. Note, memory failure on a
KSM page will be skipped, but still call memory_failure_queue() to be
consistent with general memory failure process, and we could support KSM
page recovery in the feature.

mmu_notifier_range_update_to_read_only() was originally introduced in
commit c6d23413f81b ("mm/mmu_notifier:
mmu_notifier_range_update_to_read_only() helper") as an optimisation for
device drivers that know a range has only been mapped read-only. However
there are no users of this feature so remove it. As it is the only user
of the struct mmu_notifier_range.vma field remove that also.

FOLL_MIGRATION exists only for the purpose of break_ksm(), and actually,
there is not even the need to wait for the migration to finish, we only
want to know if we're dealing with a KSM page.
Using follow_page() just to identify a KSM page overcomplicates GUP code.
Let's use walk_page_range_vma() instead, because we don't actually care
about the page itself, we only need to know a single property -- no need
to even grab a reference.
So, get rid of follow_page() usage such that we can get rid of
FOLL_MIGRATION now and eventually be able to get rid of follow_page() in
the future.
In my setup (AMD Ryzen 9 3900X), running the KSM selftest to test unmerge
performance on 2 GiB (taskset 0x8 ./ksm_tests -D -s 2048), this results in
a performance degradation of ~2% (old: ~5010 MiB/s, new: ~4900 MiB/s). I
don't think we particularly care for now.
Interestingly, the benchmark reduction is due to the single callback.
Adding a second callback (e.g., pud_entry()) reduces the benchmark by
another 100-200 MiB/s.

Let's stop breaking COW via a fake write fault and let's use
FAULT_FLAG_UNSHARE instead. This avoids any wrong side effects of the
fake write fault, such as mapping the PTE writable and marking the pte
dirty/softdirty.
Consequently, we will no longer trigger a fake write fault and break COW
without any such side-effects.
Also, this fixes KSM interaction with userfaultfd-wp: when we have a KSM
page that's write-protected by userfaultfd, break_ksm()->handle_mm_fault()
will fail with VM_FAULT_SIGBUS and will simply return in break_ksm() with
0 instead of actually breaking COW.
For now, the KSM unmerge tests can trigger that:
$ sudo ./ksm_functional_tests
TAP version 13
1..3
# [RUN] test_unmerge
ok 1 Pages were unmerged
# [RUN] test_unmerge_discarded
ok 2 Pages were unmerged
# [RUN] test_unmerge_uffd_wp
not ok 3 Pages were unmerged
Bail out! 1 out of 3 tests failed
# Planned tests != run tests (2 != 3)
# Totals: pass:2 fail:1 xfail:0 xpass:0 skip:0 error:0
The warning in dmesg also indicates this wrong handling:

This is primarily a fix for KSM+userfaultfd-wp, however, the fake write
fault was always questionable. As this fix is not easy to backport and
it's not very critical, let's not cc stable.

Now that GUP no longer requires VM_FAULT_WRITE, break_ksm() is the sole
remaining user of VM_FAULT_WRITE. As we also want to stop triggering a
fake write fault and instead use FAULT_FLAG_UNSHARE -- similar to
GUP-triggered unsharing when taking a R/O pin on a shared anonymous page
(including KSM pages), let's stop relying on VM_FAULT_WRITE.
Let's rework break_ksm() to not rely on the return value of
handle_mm_fault() anymore to figure out whether COW-breaking was
successful. Simply perform another follow_page() lookup to verify the
result.
While this makes break_ksm() slightly less efficient, we can simplify
handle_mm_fault() a little and easily switch to FAULT_FLAG_UNSHARE without
introducing similar KSM-specific behavior for FAULT_FLAG_UNSHARE.
In my setup (AMD Ryzen 9 3900X), running the KSM selftest to test unmerge
performance on 2 GiB (taskset 0x8 ./ksm_tests -D -s 2048), this results in
a performance degradation of ~4% -- 5% (old: ~5250 MiB/s, new: ~5010
MiB/s).
I don't think that we particularly care about that performance drop when
unmerging. If it ever turns out to be an actual performance issue, we can
think about a better alternative for FAULT_FLAG_UNSHARE -- let's just keep
it simple for now.

commit b191f9b106ea ("mm: numa: preserve PTE write permissions across a
NUMA hinting fault") added remembering write permissions using ordinary
pte_write() for PROT_NONE mapped pages to avoid write faults when
remapping the page !PROT_NONE on NUMA hinting faults.
That commit noted:
The patch looks hacky but the alternatives looked worse. The tidest was
to rewalk the page tables after a hinting fault but it was more complex
than this approach and the performance was worse. It's not generally
safe to just mark the page writable during the fault if it's a write
fault as it may have been read-only for COW so that approach was
discarded.
Later, commit 288bc54949fc ("mm/autonuma: let architecture override how
the write bit should be stashed in a protnone pte.") introduced a family
of savedwrite PTE functions that didn't necessarily improve the whole
situation.
One confusing thing is that nowadays, if a page is pte_protnone()
and pte_savedwrite() then also pte_write() is true. Another source of
confusion is that there is only a single pte_mk_savedwrite() call in the
kernel. All other write-protection code seems to silently rely on
pte_wrprotect().
Ever since PageAnonExclusive was introduced and we started using it in
mprotect context via commit 64fe24a3e05e ("mm/mprotect: try avoiding write
faults for exclusive anonymous pages when changing protection"), we do
have machinery in place to avoid write faults when changing protection,
which is exactly what we want to do here.
Let's similarly do what ordinary mprotect() does nowadays when upgrading
write permissions and reuse can_change_pte_writable() and
can_change_pmd_writable() to detect if we can upgrade PTE permissions to be
writable.
For anonymous pages there should be absolutely no change: if an
anonymous page is not exclusive, it could not have been mapped writable --
because only exclusive anonymous pages can be mapped writable.
However, there *might* be a change for writable shared mappings that
require writenotify: if they are not dirty, we cannot map them writable.
While it might not matter in practice, we'd need a different way to
identify whether writenotify is actually required -- and ordinary mprotect
would benefit from that as well.
Note that we don't optimize for the actual migration case:
(1) When migration succeeds the new PTE will not be writable because the
source PTE was not writable (protnone); in the future we
might just optimize that case similarly by reusing
can_change_pte_writable()/can_change_pmd_writable() when removing
migration PTEs.
(2) When migration fails, we'd have to recalculate the "writable" flag
because we temporarily dropped the PT lock; for now keep it simple and
set "writable=false".
We'll remove all savedwrite leftovers next.

Patch series "ksm: count allocated rmap_items and update documentation",
v5.
KSM can save memory by merging identical pages, but also can consume
additional memory, because it needs to generate rmap_items to save each
scanned page's brief rmap information.
To determine how beneficial the ksm-policy (like madvise), they are using
brings, so we add a new interface /proc/<pid>/ksm_stat for each process
The value "ksm_rmap_items" in it indicates the total allocated ksm
rmap_items of this process.
The detailed description can be seen in the following patches' commit
message.
This patch (of 2):
KSM can save memory by merging identical pages, but also can consume
additional memory, because it needs to generate rmap_items to save each
scanned page's brief rmap information. Some of these pages may be merged,
but some may not be abled to be merged after being checked several times,
which are unprofitable memory consumed.
The information about whether KSM save memory or consume memory in
system-wide range can be determined by the comprehensive calculation of
pages_sharing, pages_shared, pages_unshared and pages_volatile. A simple
approximate calculation:
profit =~ pages_sharing * sizeof(page) - (all_rmap_items) *
sizeof(rmap_item);
where all_rmap_items equals to the sum of pages_sharing, pages_shared,
pages_unshared and pages_volatile.
But we cannot calculate this kind of ksm profit inner single-process wide
because the information of ksm rmap_item's number of a process is lacked.
For user applications, if this kind of information could be obtained, it
helps upper users know how beneficial the ksm-policy (like madvise) they
are using brings, and then optimize their app code. For example, one
application madvise 1000 pages as MERGEABLE, while only a few pages are
really merged, then it's not cost-efficient.
So we add a new interface /proc/<pid>/ksm_stat for each process in which
the value of ksm_rmap_itmes is only shown now and so more values can be
added in future.
So similarly, we can calculate the ksm profit approximately for a single
process by:
profit =~ ksm_merging_pages * sizeof(page) - ksm_rmap_items *
sizeof(rmap_item);
where ksm_merging_pages is shown at /proc/<pid>/ksm_merging_pages, and
ksm_rmap_items is shown in /proc/<pid>/ksm_stat.

The handling Non-LRU pages returned by follow_page() jumps directly, it
doesn't call put_page() to handle the reference count, since 'FOLL_GET'
flag for follow_page() has get_page() called. Fix the zone device page
check by handling the page reference count correctly before returning.
And as David reviewed, "device pages are never PageKsm pages". Drop this
zone device page check for break_ksm().
Since the zone device page can't be a transparent huge page, so drop the
redundant zone device page check for split_huge_pages_pid(). (by Miaohe)

commit 6c287605fd56 ("mm: remember exclusively mapped anonymous pages with
PG_anon_exclusive") made sure that when PageAnonExclusive() has to be
cleared during temporary unmapping of a page, that the PTE is
cleared/invalidated and that the TLB is flushed.
What we want to achieve in all cases is that we cannot end up with a pin on
an anonymous page that may be shared, because such pins would be
unreliable and could result in memory corruptions when the mapped page
and the pin go out of sync due to a write fault.
That TLB flush handling was inspired by an outdated comment in
mm/ksm.c:write_protect_page(), which similarly required the TLB flush in
the past to synchronize with GUP-fast. However, ever since general RCU GUP
fast was introduced in commit 2667f50e8b81 ("mm: introduce a general RCU
get_user_pages_fast()"), a TLB flush is no longer sufficient to handle
concurrent GUP-fast in all cases -- it only handles traditional IPI-based
GUP-fast correctly.
Peter Xu (thankfully) questioned whether that TLB flush is really
required. On architectures that send an IPI broadcast on TLB flush,
it works as expected. To synchronize with RCU GUP-fast properly, we're
conceptually fine, however, we have to enforce a certain memory order and
are missing memory barriers.
Let's document that, avoid the TLB flush where possible and use proper
explicit memory barriers where required. We shouldn't really care about the
additional memory barriers here, as we're not on extremely hot paths --
and we're getting rid of some TLB flushes.
We use a smp_mb() pair for handling concurrent pinning and a
smp_rmb()/smp_wmb() pair for handling the corner case of only temporary
PTE changes but permanent PageAnonExclusive changes.
One extreme example, whereby GUP-fast takes a R/O pin and KSM wants to
convert an exclusive anonymous page to a KSM page, and that page is already
mapped write-protected (-> no PTE change) would be:
Thread 0 (KSM) Thread 1 (GUP-fast)
(B1) Read the PTE
# (B2) skipped without FOLL_WRITE
(A1) Clear PTE
smp_mb()
(A2) Check pinned
(B3) Pin the mapped page
smp_mb()
(A3) Clear PageAnonExclusive
smp_wmb()
(A4) Restore PTE
(B4) Check if the PTE changed
smp_rmb()
(B5) Check PageAnonExclusive
Thread 1 will properly detect that PageAnonExclusive was cleared and
back off.
Note that we don't need a memory barrier between checking if the page is
pinned and clearing PageAnonExclusive, because stores are not
speculated.
The possible issues due to reordering are of theoretical nature so far
and attempts to reproduce the race failed.
Especially the "no PTE change" case isn't the common case, because we'd
need an exclusive anonymous page that's mapped R/O and the PTE is clean
in KSM code -- and using KSM with page pinning isn't extremely common.
Further, the clear+TLB flush we used for now implies a memory barrier.
So the problematic missing part should be the missing memory barrier
after pinning but before checking if the PTE changed.

When scanning an anon pmd to see if it's eligible for collapse, return
SCAN_PMD_MAPPED if the pmd already maps a hugepage. Note that
SCAN_PMD_MAPPED is different from SCAN_PAGE_COMPOUND used in the
file-collapse path, since the latter might identify pte-mapped compound
pages. This is required by MADV_COLLAPSE which necessarily needs to know
what hugepage-aligned/sized regions are already pmd-mapped.
In order to determine if a pmd already maps a hugepage, refactor
mm_find_pmd():
Return mm_find_pmd() to it's pre-commit f72e7dcdd252 ("mm: let mm_find_pmd
fix buggy race with THP fault") behavior. ksm was the only caller that
explicitly wanted a pte-mapping pmd, so open code the pte-mapping logic
there (pmd_present() and pmd_trans_huge() checks).
Undo revert change in commit f72e7dcdd252 ("mm: let mm_find_pmd fix buggy
race with THP fault") that open-coded split_huge_pmd_address() pmd lookup
and use mm_find_pmd() instead.

With DEVICE_COHERENT, we'll soon have vm_normal_pages() return
device-managed anonymous pages that are not LRU pages. Although they
behave like normal pages for purposes of mapping in CPU page, and for COW.
They do not support LRU lists, NUMA migration or THP.
Callers to follow_page() currently don't expect ZONE_DEVICE pages,
however, with DEVICE_COHERENT we might now return ZONE_DEVICE. Check for
ZONE_DEVICE pages in applicable users of follow_page() as well.

The rmap locks(i_mmap_rwsem and anon_vma->root->rwsem) could be contended
under memory pressure if processes keep working on their vmas(e.g., fork,
mmap, munmap). It makes reclaim path stuck. In our real workload traces,
we see kswapd is waiting the lock for 300ms+(worst case, a sec) and it
makes other processes entering direct reclaim, which were also stuck on
the lock.
This patch makes lru aging path try_lock mode like shink_page_list so the
reclaim context will keep working with next lru pages without being stuck.
if it found the rmap lock contended, it rotates the page back to head of
lru in both active/inactive lrus to make them consistent behavior, which
is basic starting point rather than adding more heristic.
Since this patch introduces a new "contended" field as out-param along
with try_lock in-param in rmap_walk_control, it's not immutable any longer
if the try_lock is set so remove const keywords on rmap related functions.
Since rmap walking is already expensive operation, I doubt the const
would help sizable benefit( And we didn't have it until 5.17).
In a heavy app workload in Android, trace shows following statistics. It
almost removes rmap lock contention from reclaim path.

Let's mark exclusively mapped anonymous pages with PG_anon_exclusive as
exclusive, and use that information to make GUP pins reliable and stay
consistent with the page mapped into the page table even if the page table
entry gets write-protected.
With that information at hand, we can extend our COW logic to always reuse
anonymous pages that are exclusive. For anonymous pages that might be
shared, the existing logic applies.
As already documented, PG_anon_exclusive is usually only expressive in
combination with a page table entry. Especially PTE vs. PMD-mapped
anonymous pages require more thought, some examples: due to mremap() we
can easily have a single compound page PTE-mapped into multiple page
tables exclusively in a single process -- multiple page table locks apply.
Further, due to MADV_WIPEONFORK we might not necessarily write-protect
all PTEs, and only some subpages might be pinned. Long story short: once
PTE-mapped, we have to track information about exclusivity per sub-page,
but until then, we can just track it for the compound page in the head
page and not having to update a whole bunch of subpages all of the time
for a simple PMD mapping of a THP.
For simplicity, this commit mostly talks about "anonymous pages", while
it's for THP actually "the part of an anonymous folio referenced via a
page table entry".
To not spill PG_anon_exclusive code all over the mm code-base, we let the
anon rmap code to handle all PG_anon_exclusive logic it can easily handle.
If a writable, present page table entry points at an anonymous (sub)page,
that (sub)page must be PG_anon_exclusive. If GUP wants to take a reliably
pin (FOLL_PIN) on an anonymous page references via a present page table
entry, it must only pin if PG_anon_exclusive is set for the mapped
(sub)page.
This commit doesn't adjust GUP, so this is only implicitly handled for
FOLL_WRITE, follow-up commits will teach GUP to also respect it for
FOLL_PIN without FOLL_WRITE, to make all GUP pins of anonymous pages fully
reliable.
Whenever an anonymous page is to be shared (fork(), KSM), or when
temporarily unmapping an anonymous page (swap, migration), the relevant
PG_anon_exclusive bit has to be cleared to mark the anonymous page
possibly shared. Clearing will fail if there are GUP pins on the page:
* For fork(), this means having to copy the page and not being able to
share it. fork() protects against concurrent GUP using the PT lock and
the src_mm->write_protect_seq.
* For KSM, this means sharing will fail. For swap this means, unmapping
will fail, For migration this means, migration will fail early. All
three cases protect against concurrent GUP using the PT lock and a
proper clear/invalidate+flush of the relevant page table entry.
This fixes memory corruptions reported for FOLL_PIN | FOLL_WRITE, when a
pinned page gets mapped R/O and the successive write fault ends up
replacing the page instead of reusing it. It improves the situation for
O_DIRECT/vmsplice/... that still use FOLL_GET instead of FOLL_PIN, if
fork() is *not* involved, however swapout and fork() are still
problematic. Properly using FOLL_PIN instead of FOLL_GET for these GUP
users will fix the issue for them.
I. Details about basic handling
I.1. Fresh anonymous pages
page_add_new_anon_rmap() and hugepage_add_new_anon_rmap() will mark the
given page exclusive via __page_set_anon_rmap(exclusive=1). As that is
the mechanism fresh anonymous pages come into life (besides migration code
where we copy the page->mapping), all fresh anonymous pages will start out
as exclusive.
I.2. COW reuse handling of anonymous pages
When a COW handler stumbles over a (sub)page that's marked exclusive, it
simply reuses it. Otherwise, the handler tries harder under page lock to
detect if the (sub)page is exclusive and can be reused. If exclusive,
page_move_anon_rmap() will mark the given (sub)page exclusive.
Note that hugetlb code does not yet check for PageAnonExclusive(), as it
still uses the old COW logic that is prone to the COW security issue
because hugetlb code cannot really tolerate unnecessary/wrong COW as huge
pages are a scarce resource.
I.3. Migration handling
try_to_migrate() has to try marking an exclusive anonymous page shared via
page_try_share_anon_rmap(). If it fails because there are GUP pins on the
page, unmap fails. migrate_vma_collect_pmd() and
__split_huge_pmd_locked() are handled similarly.
Writable migration entries implicitly point at shared anonymous pages.
For readable migration entries that information is stored via a new
"readable-exclusive" migration entry, specific to anonymous pages.
When restoring a migration entry in remove_migration_pte(), information
about exlusivity is detected via the migration entry type, and
RMAP_EXCLUSIVE is set accordingly for
page_add_anon_rmap()/hugepage_add_anon_rmap() to restore that information.
I.4. Swapout handling
try_to_unmap() has to try marking the mapped page possibly shared via
page_try_share_anon_rmap(). If it fails because there are GUP pins on the
page, unmap fails. For now, information about exclusivity is lost. In
the future, we might want to remember that information in the swap entry
in some cases, however, it requires more thought, care, and a way to store
that information in swap entries.
I.5. Swapin handling
do_swap_page() will never stumble over exclusive anonymous pages in the
swap cache, as try_to_migrate() prohibits that. do_swap_page() always has
to detect manually if an anonymous page is exclusive and has to set
RMAP_EXCLUSIVE for page_add_anon_rmap() accordingly.
I.6. THP handling
__split_huge_pmd_locked() has to move the information about exclusivity
from the PMD to the PTEs.
a) In case we have a readable-exclusive PMD migration entry, simply
insert readable-exclusive PTE migration entries.
b) In case we have a present PMD entry and we don't want to freeze
("convert to migration entries"), simply forward PG_anon_exclusive to
all sub-pages, no need to temporarily clear the bit.
c) In case we have a present PMD entry and want to freeze, handle it
similar to try_to_migrate(): try marking the page shared first. In
case we fail, we ignore the "freeze" instruction and simply split
ordinarily. try_to_migrate() will properly fail because the THP is
still mapped via PTEs.
When splitting a compound anonymous folio (THP), the information about
exclusivity is implicitly handled via the migration entries: no need to
replicate PG_anon_exclusive manually.
I.7. fork() handling fork() handling is relatively easy, because
PG_anon_exclusive is only expressive for some page table entry types.
a) Present anonymous pages
page_try_dup_anon_rmap() will mark the given subpage shared -- which will
fail if the page is pinned. If it failed, we have to copy (or PTE-map a
PMD to handle it on the PTE level).
Note that device exclusive entries are just a pointer at a PageAnon()
page. fork() will first convert a device exclusive entry to a present
page table and handle it just like present anonymous pages.
b) Device private entry
Device private entries point at PageAnon() pages that cannot be mapped
directly and, therefore, cannot get pinned.
page_try_dup_anon_rmap() will mark the given subpage shared, which cannot
fail because they cannot get pinned.
c) HW poison entries
PG_anon_exclusive will remain untouched and is stale -- the page table
entry is just a placeholder after all.
d) Migration entries
Writable and readable-exclusive entries are converted to readable entries:
possibly shared.
I.8. mprotect() handling
mprotect() only has to properly handle the new readable-exclusive
migration entry:
When write-protecting a migration entry that points at an anonymous page,
remember the information about exclusivity via the "readable-exclusive"
migration entry type.
II. Migration and GUP-fast
Whenever replacing a present page table entry that maps an exclusive
anonymous page by a migration entry, we have to mark the page possibly
shared and synchronize against GUP-fast by a proper clear/invalidate+flush
to make the following scenario impossible:
1. try_to_migrate() places a migration entry after checking for GUP pins
and marks the page possibly shared.
2. GUP-fast pins the page due to lack of synchronization
3. fork() converts the "writable/readable-exclusive" migration entry into a
readable migration entry
4. Migration fails due to the GUP pin (failing to freeze the refcount)
5. Migration entries are restored. PG_anon_exclusive is lost
-> We have a pinned page that is not marked exclusive anymore.
Note that we move information about exclusivity from the page to the
migration entry as it otherwise highly overcomplicates fork() and
PTE-mapping a THP.
III. Swapout and GUP-fast
Whenever replacing a present page table entry that maps an exclusive
anonymous page by a swap entry, we have to mark the page possibly shared
and synchronize against GUP-fast by a proper clear/invalidate+flush to
make the following scenario impossible:
1. try_to_unmap() places a swap entry after checking for GUP pins and
clears exclusivity information on the page.
2. GUP-fast pins the page due to lack of synchronization.
-> We have a pinned page that is not marked exclusive anymore.
If we'd ever store information about exclusivity in the swap entry,
similar to migration handling, the same considerations as in II would
apply. This is future work.

... and instead convert page_add_anon_rmap() to accept flags.
Passing flags instead of bools is usually nicer either way, and we want to
more often also pass RMAP_EXCLUSIVE in follow up patches when detecting
that an anonymous page is exclusive: for example, when restoring an
anonymous page from a writable migration entry.
This is a preparation for marking an anonymous page inside
page_add_anon_rmap() as exclusive when RMAP_EXCLUSIVE is passed.

Some applications or containers want to use KSM by calling madvise() to
advise areas of address space to be MERGEABLE. But they may not know
which applications are more likely to cause real merges in the
deployment. If this patch is applied, it helps them know their
corresponding number of merged pages, and then optimize their app code.
As current KSM only counts the number of KSM merging pages(e.g.
ksm_pages_sharing and ksm_pages_shared) of the whole system, we cannot see
the more fine-grained KSM merging, for the upper application optimization,
the merging area cannot be set easily according to the KSM page merging
probability of each process. Therefore, it is necessary to add extra
statistical means so that the upper level users can know the detailed KSM
merging information of each process.
We add a new proc file named as ksm_merging_pages under /proc/<pid>/ to
indicate the involved ksm merging pages of this process.

When faults in from swap what used to be a KSM page and that page had been
swapped in before, system has to make a copy, and leaves remerging the
pages to a later pass of ksmd.
That is not good for performace, we'd better to reduce this kind of copy.
There are some ways to reduce it, for example lessen swappiness or
madvise(, , MADV_MERGEABLE) range. So add this event to support doing
this tuning. Just like this patch: "mm, THP, swap: add THP swapping out
fallback counting".

The rmap walking functions do not modify the rmap_walk_control, and
page_idle_clear_pte_refs() takes advantage of that to move construction
of the rmap_walk_control to compile time. This lets us remove an
unclean cast.

Add vma argument to mlock_vma_page() and munlock_vma_page(), make them
inline functions which check (vma->vm_flags & VM_LOCKED) before calling
mlock_page() and munlock_page() in mm/mlock.c.
Add bool compound to mlock_vma_page() and munlock_vma_page(): this is
because we have understandable difficulty in accounting pte maps of THPs,
and if passed a PageHead page, mlock_page() and munlock_page() cannot
tell whether it's a pmd map to be counted or a pte map to be ignored.
Add vma arg to page_add_file_rmap() and page_remove_rmap(), like the
others, and use that to call mlock_vma_page() at the end of the page
adds, and munlock_vma_page() at the end of page_remove_rmap() (end or
beginning? unimportant, but end was easier for assertions in testing).
No page lock is required (although almost all adds happen to hold it):
delete the "Serialize with page migration" BUG_ON(!PageLocked(page))s.
Certainly page lock did serialize with page migration, but I'm having
difficulty explaining why that was ever important.
Mlock accounting on THPs has been hard to define, differed between anon
and file, involved PageDoubleMap in some places and not others, required
clear_page_mlock() at some points. Keep it simple now: just count the
pmds and ignore the ptes, there is no reason for ptes to undo pmd mlocks.
page_add_new_anon_rmap() callers unchanged: they have long been calling
lru_cache_add_inactive_or_unevictable(), which does its own VM_LOCKED
handling (it also checks for not VM_SPECIAL: I think that's overcautious,
and inconsistent with other checks, that mmap_region() already prevents
VM_LOCKED on VM_SPECIAL; but haven't quite convinced myself to change it).

When under the stress of swapping in/out with KSM enabled, there is a
low probability that kasan reports the BUG of use-after-free in
ksm_might_need_to_copy() when do swap in. The freed object is the
anon_vma got from page_anon_vma(page).
It is because a swapcache page associated with one anon_vma now needed
for another anon_vma, but the page's original vma was unmapped and the
anon_vma was freed. In this case the if condition below always return
false and then alloc a new page to copy. Swapin process then use the
new page and can continue to run well, so this is harmless actually.
} else if (anon_vma->root == vma->anon_vma->root &&
page->index == linear_page_index(vma, address)) {
This patch exchange the order of above two judgment statement to avoid
the kasan warning. Let cpu run "page->index == linear_page_index(vma,
address)" firstly and return false basically to skip the read of
anon_vma->root which may trigger the kasan use-after-free warning:

linux/mm_types.h should only define structure definitions, to make it
cheap to include elsewhere. The atomic_t helper function definitions
are particularly large, so it's better to move the helpers using those
into the existing linux/mm_inline.h and only include that where needed.
As a follow-up, we may want to go through all the indirect includes in
mm_types.h and reduce them as much as possible.

Turn migrate_page_states() into a wrapper around folio_migrate_flags().
Also convert two functions only called from folio_migrate_flags() to
be folio-based. ksm_migrate_page() becomes folio_migrate_ksm() and
copy_page_owner() becomes folio_copy_owner(). folio_migrate_flags()
alone shrinks by two thirds -- 1967 bytes down to 642 bytes.

Patch series "drivers/char: remove /dev/kmem for good".
Exploring /dev/kmem and /dev/mem in the context of memory hot(un)plug and
memory ballooning, I started questioning the existence of /dev/kmem.
Comparing it with the /proc/kcore implementation, it does not seem to be
able to deal with things like
a) Pages unmapped from the direct mapping (e.g., to be used by secretmem)
-> kern_addr_valid(). virt_addr_valid() is not sufficient.
b) Special cases like gart aperture memory that is not to be touched
-> mem_pfn_is_ram()
Unless I am missing something, it's at least broken in some cases and might
fault/crash the machine.
Looks like its existence has been questioned before in 2005 and 2010 [1],
after ~11 additional years, it might make sense to revive the discussion.
CONFIG_DEVKMEM is only enabled in a single defconfig (on purpose or by
mistake?). All distributions disable it: in Ubuntu it has been disabled
for more than 10 years, in Debian since 2.6.31, in Fedora at least
starting with FC3, in RHEL starting with RHEL4, in SUSE starting from
15sp2, and OpenSUSE has it disabled as well.
1) /dev/kmem was popular for rootkits [2] before it got disabled
basically everywhere. Ubuntu documents [3] "There is no modern user of
/dev/kmem any more beyond attackers using it to load kernel rootkits.".
RHEL documents in a BZ [5] "it served no practical purpose other than to
serve as a potential security problem or to enable binary module drivers
to access structures/functions they shouldn't be touching"
2) /proc/kcore is a decent interface to have a controlled way to read
kernel memory for debugging puposes. (will need some extensions to
deal with memory offlining/unplug, memory ballooning, and poisoned
pages, though)
3) It might be useful for corner case debugging [1]. KDB/KGDB might be a
better fit, especially, to write random memory; harder to shoot
yourself into the foot.
4) "Kernel Memory Editor" [4] hasn't seen any updates since 2000 and seems
to be incompatible with 64bit [1]. For educational purposes,
/proc/kcore might be used to monitor value updates -- or older
kernels can be used.
5) It's broken on arm64, and therefore, completely disabled there.
Looks like it's essentially unused and has been replaced by better
suited interfaces for individual tasks (/proc/kcore, KDB/KGDB). Let's
just remove it.

When removing rmap_item from stable tree, STABLE_FLAG of rmap_item is
cleared with head reserved. So the following scenario might happen: For
ksm page with rmap_item1:
cmp_and_merge_page
stable_node->head = &migrate_nodes;
remove_rmap_item_from_tree, but head still equal to stable_node;
try_to_merge_with_ksm_page failed;
return;
For the same ksm page with rmap_item2, stable node migration succeed this
time. The stable_node->head does not equal to migrate_nodes now. For ksm
page with rmap_item1 again:
cmp_and_merge_page
stable_node->head != &migrate_nodes && rmap_item->head == stable_node
return;
We would miss the rmap_item for stable_node and might result in failed
rmap_walk_ksm(). Fix this by set rmap_item->head to NULL when rmap_item
is removed from stable tree.

rmap_item for stable_node which would result in failed rmap_walk_ksm().
More details can be found in the respective changelogs.
This patch (of 4):
The same VM_BUG_ON_PAGE() check is already done in the callee. Remove
these extra caller one to simplify code slightly.
