The migration code ends up temporarily stashing information of the wrong
type in unused fields of the newly allocated destination folio. That
all works fine, but gcc does complain about the pointer type mis-use:
mm/migrate.c: In function ‘__migrate_folio_extract’:
mm/migrate.c:1050:20: note: randstruct: casting between randomized structure pointer types (ssa): ‘struct anon_vma’ and ‘struct address_space’
1050 | *anon_vmap = (void *)dst->mapping;
| ~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
and gcc is actually right to complain since it really doesn't understand
that this is a very temporary special case where this is ok.
This could be fixed in different ways by just obfuscating the assignment
sufficiently that gcc doesn't see what is going on, but the truly
"proper C" way to do this is by explicitly using a union.
Using unions for type conversions like this is normally hugely ugly and
syntactically nasty, but this really is one of the few cases where we
want to make it clear that we're not doing type conversion, we're really
re-using the value bit-for-bit just using another type.
IOW, this should not become a common pattern, but in this one case using
that odd union is probably the best way to document to the compiler what
is conceptually going on here.
[ Side note: there are valid cases where we convert pointers to other
pointer types, notably the whole "folio vs page" situation, where the
types actually have fundamental commonalities.
The fact that the gcc note is limited to just randomized structures
means that we don't see equivalent warnings for those cases, but it
migth also mean that we miss other cases where we do play these kinds
of dodgy games, and this kind of explicit conversion might be a good
idea. ]
I verified that at least for an allmodconfig build on x86-64, this
generates the exact same code, apart from line numbers and assembler
comment changes.

The tests for memset/memmove have been failing since they haven't been
instrumented in 69d4c0d32186.
Fix the test to recognize when memintrinsics aren't instrumented, and skip
test cases accordingly. We also need to conditionally pass -fno-builtin
to the test, otherwise the instrumentation pass won't recognize
memintrinsics and end up not instrumenting them either.

Where the compiler instruments meminstrinsics by generating calls to
__asan/__hwasan_ prefixed functions, let the compiler consider
memintrinsics as builtin again.
To do so, never override memset/memmove/memcpy if the compiler does the
correct instrumentation - even on !GENERIC_ENTRY architectures.

Clang 15 provides an option to prefix memcpy/memset/memmove calls with
__asan_/__hwasan_ in instrumented functions:
https://reviews.llvm.org/D122724
GCC will add support in future:
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=108777
Use it to regain KASAN instrumentation of memcpy/memset/memmove on
architectures that require noinstr to be really free from instrumented
mem*() functions (all GENERIC_ENTRY architectures).

After a memory error happens on a clean folio, a process unexpectedly
receives SIGBUS when it accesses the error page. This SIGBUS killing is
pointless and simply degrades the level of RAS of the system, because the
clean folio can be dropped without any data lost on memory error handling
as we do for a clean pagecache.
When memory_failure() is called on a clean folio, try_to_unmap() is called
twice (one from split_huge_page() and one from hwpoison_user_mappings()).
The root cause of the issue is that pte conversion to hwpoisoned entry is
now done in the first call of try_to_unmap() because PageHWPoison is
already set at this point, while it's actually expected to be done in the
second call. This behavior disturbs the error handling operation like
removing pagecache, which results in the malfunction described above.
So convert TTU_IGNORE_HWPOISON into TTU_HWPOISON and set TTU_HWPOISON only
when we really intend to convert pte to hwpoison entry. This can prevent
other callers of try_to_unmap() from accidentally converting to hwpoison
entries.

damon_get_folio() would always increase folio _refcount and
folio_isolate_lru() would increase folio _refcount if the folio's lru flag
is set.
If an unevictable folio isolated successfully, there will be two more
_refcount. The one from folio_isolate_lru() will be decreased in
folio_puback_lru(), but the other one from damon_get_folio() will be left
behind. This causes a pin page.
Whatever the case, the _refcount from damon_get_folio() should be
decreased.

In case 4, we are shrinking 'prev' (PPPP in the comment) and expanding
'mid' (NNNN). So we need to make sure 'mid' clones the anon_vma from
'prev', if it doesn't have any. After commit 0503ea8f5ba7 ("mm/mmap:
remove __vma_adjust()") we can fail to do that due to wrong parameters for
dup_anon_vma(). The call is a no-op because res == next, adjust == mid
and mid == next. Fix it.

If mprotect_fixup() successfully calls vma_merge() and replaces vma and
the next vma, then the tmp variable in the do_mprotect_pkey() is not
updated to point to the new vma end. This results in the loop detecting
a gap between VMAs that does not exist.
Fix the faulty value of tmp by setting it to the end location of the vma
iterator at the end of the loop.

"The largest subset of this is from David Howells et al: making the
cifs/smb3 driver pass iov_iters down to the lowest layers, directly to

helping multiple areas:
- Pin user pages, thereby fixing the race between concurrent DIO read
and fork, where the pages containing the DIO read buffer may end up
belonging to the child process and not the parent - with the result
that the parent might not see the retrieved data.
- cifs shouldn't take refs on pages extracted from non-user-backed
iterators (eg. KVEC). With these changes, cifs will apply the
appropriate cleanup.
- Making it easier to transition to using folios in cifs rather than
pages by dealing with them through BVEC and XARRAY iterators.
- Allowing cifs to use the new splice function
The remainder are:
- fixes for stable, including various fixes for uninitialized memory,
wrong length field causing mount issue to very old servers,
important directory lease fixes and reconnect fixes
- cleanups (unused code removal, change one element array usage, and
a change form strtobool to kstrtobool, and Kconfig cleanups)
- SMBDIRECT (RDMA) fixes including iov_iter integration and UAF fixes

- Add cgroup.memory=nobpf kernel parameter option to disable BPF
memory accounting for container environments.
Netfilter:
- Remove the CLUSTERIP target. It has been marked as obsolete for
years, and we still have WARN splats wrt races of the out-of-band
/proc interface installed by this target.
- Add 'destroy' commands to nf_tables. They are identical to the
existing 'delete' commands, but do not return an error if the
referenced object (set, chain, rule...) did not exist.
Driver API:
- Improve cpumask_local_spread() locality to help NICs set the right
IRQ affinity on AMD platforms.
- Separate C22 and C45 MDIO bus transactions more clearly.
- Introduce new DCB table to control DSCP rewrite on egress.
- Support configuration of Physical Layer Collision Avoidance (PLCA)
Reconciliation Sublayer (RS) (802.3cg-2019). Modern version of
shared medium Ethernet.
- Support for MAC Merge layer (IEEE 802.3-2018 clause 99). Allowing
preemption of low priority frames by high priority frames.
- Add support for controlling MACSec offload using netlink SET.
- Rework devlink instance refcounts to allow registration and
de-registration under the instance lock. Split the code into
multiple files, drop some of the unnecessarily granular locks and
factor out common parts of netlink operation handling.
- Add TX frame aggregation parameters (for USB drivers).
- Add a new attr TCA_EXT_WARN_MSG to report TC (offload) warning
messages with notifications for debug.
- Allow offloading of UDP NEW connections via act_ct.
- Add support for per action HW stats in TC.
- Support hardware miss to TC action (continue processing in SW from
a specific point in the action chain).
- Warn if old Wireless Extension user space interface is used with
modern cfg80211/mac80211 drivers. Do not support Wireless
Extensions for Wi-Fi 7 devices at all. Everyone should switch to
using nl80211 interface instead.
- Improve the CAN bit timing configuration. Use extack to return
error messages directly to user space, update the SJW handling,
including the definition of a new default value that will benefit
CAN-FD controllers, by increasing their oscillator tolerance.

Currently proc_dobool expects a (bool *) in table->data, but sizeof(int)
in table->maxsize, because it uses do_proc_dointvec() directly.
This is unsafe for at least two reasons:
1. A sysctl table definition may use { .data = &variable, .maxsize =
sizeof(variable) }, not realizing that this makes the sysctl unusable
(see the Fixes: tag) and that they need to use the completely
counterintuitive sizeof(int) instead.
2. proc_dobool() will currently try to parse an array of values if given
.maxsize >= 2*sizeof(int), but will try to write values of type bool
by offsets of sizeof(int), so it will not work correctly with neither
an (int *) nor a (bool *). There is no .maxsize validation to prevent
this.
Fix this by:
1. Constraining proc_dobool() to allow only one value and .maxsize ==
sizeof(bool).
2. Wrapping the original struct ctl_table in a temporary one with .data
pointing to a local int variable and .maxsize set to sizeof(int) and
passing this one to proc_dointvec(), converting the value to/from
bool as needed (using proc_dou8vec_minmax() as an example).
3. Extending sysctl_check_table() to enforce proc_dobool() expectations.
4. Fixing the proc_dobool() docstring (it was just copy-pasted from
proc_douintvec, apparently...).
5. Converting all existing proc_dobool() users to set .maxsize to
sizeof(bool) instead of sizeof(int).

pull-request: bpf-next 2023-02-17
We've added 64 non-merge commits during the last 7 day(s) which contain
a total of 158 files changed, 4190 insertions(+), 988 deletions(-).
The main changes are:
1) Add a rbtree data structure following the "next-gen data structure"
precedent set by recently-added linked-list, that is, by using
kfunc + kptr instead of adding a new BPF map type, from Dave Marchevsky.
2) Add a new benchmark for hashmap lookups to BPF selftests,
from Anton Protopopov.
3) Fix bpf_fib_lookup to only return valid neighbors and add an option
to skip the neigh table lookup, from Martin KaFai Lau.
4) Add cgroup.memory=nobpf kernel parameter option to disable BPF memory
accouting for container environments, from Yafang Shao.
5) Batch of ice multi-buffer and driver performance fixes,
from Alexander Lobakin.
6) Fix a bug in determining whether global subprog's argument is
PTR_TO_CTX, which is based on type names which breaks kprobe progs,
from Andrii Nakryiko.
7) Prep work for future -mcpu=v4 LLVM option which includes usage of
BPF_ST insn. Thus improve BPF_ST-related value tracking in verifier,
from Eduard Zingerman.
8) More prep work for later building selftests with Memory Sanitizer
in order to detect usages of undefined memory, from Ilya Leoshkevich.
9) Fix xsk sockets to check IFF_UP earlier to avoid a NULL pointer
dereference via sendmsg(), from Maciej Fijalkowski.
10) Implement BPF trampoline for RV64 JIT compiler, from Pu Lehui.
11) Fix BPF memory allocator in combination with BPF hashtab where it could
corrupt special fields e.g. used in bpf_spin_lock, from Hou Tao.
12) Fix LoongArch BPF JIT to always use 4 instructions for function
address so that instruction sequences don't change between passes,
from Hengqi Chen.

Provide a function for filling in a scatterlist from the list of pages
contained in an iterator.
If the iterator is UBUF- or IOBUF-type, the pages have a pin taken on them
(as FOLL_PIN).
If the iterator is BVEC-, KVEC- or XARRAY-type, no pin is taken on the
pages and it is left to the caller to manage their lifetime. It cannot be
assumed that a ref can be validly taken, particularly in the case of a KVEC
iterator.

Provide a function to do splice read from a buffered file, pulling the
folios out of the pagecache directly by calling filemap_get_pages() to do
any required reading and then pasting the returned folios into the pipe.
A helper function is provided to do the actual folio pasting and will
handle multipage folios by splicing as many of the relevant subpages as
will fit into the pipe.
The code is loosely based on filemap_read() and might belong in
mm/filemap.c with that as it needs to use filemap_get_pages().

Moreover the page isolation functions only return 0 or -EBUSY, and

thus we can convert all page isolation functions to return a boolean
value, which can remove the confusion to make code more clear.
No functional changes intended in this patch series.
This patch (of 4):
Now the folio_isolate_lru() did not return a boolean value to indicate
isolation success or not, however below code checking the return value can
make people think that it was a boolean success/failure thing, which makes
people easy to make mistakes (see the fix patch[1]).
if (folio_isolate_lru(folio))
continue;
Thus it's better to check the negative error value expilictly returned by
folio_isolate_lru(), which makes code more clear per Linus's
suggestion[2]. Moreover Matthew suggested we can convert the isolation
functions to return a boolean[3], since most users did not care about the
negative error value, and can also remove the confusing of checking return
value.
So this patch converts the folio_isolate_lru() to return a boolean value,
which means return 'true' to indicate the folio isolation is successful,
and 'false' means a failure to isolation. Meanwhile changing all users'
logic of checking the isolation state.
No functional changes intended.

Patch series "objtool warning fixes", v2.
These are three of the easier fixes for objtool warnings around
kasan/kmsan/kcsan. I dropped one patch since Peter had come up with a
better fix, and adjusted the changelog text based on feedback.
This patch (of 3):
When the compiler decides not to inline this function, objtool complains
about incorrect UACCESS state:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/idmapping
Pull vfs idmapping updates from Christian Brauner:
- Last cycle we introduced the dedicated struct mnt_idmap type for
mount idmapping and the required infrastucture in 256c8aed2b42 ("fs:
introduce dedicated idmap type for mounts"). As promised in last
cycle's pull request message this converts everything to rely on
struct mnt_idmap.
Currently we still pass around the plain namespace that was attached
to a mount. This is in general pretty convenient but it makes it easy
to conflate namespaces that are relevant on the filesystem with
namespaces that are relevant on the mount level. Especially for
non-vfs developers without detailed knowledge in this area this was a
potential source for bugs.
This finishes the conversion. Instead of passing the plain namespace
around this updates all places that currently take a pointer to a
mnt_userns with a pointer to struct mnt_idmap.
Now that the conversion is done all helpers down to the really
low-level helpers only accept a struct mnt_idmap argument instead of
two namespace arguments.
Conflating mount and other idmappings will now cause the compiler to
complain loudly thus eliminating the possibility of any bugs. This
makes it impossible for filesystem developers to mix up mount and
filesystem idmappings as they are two distinct types and require
distinct helpers that cannot be used interchangeably.
Everything associated with struct mnt_idmap is moved into a single
separate file. With that change no code can poke around in struct
mnt_idmap. It can only be interacted with through dedicated helpers.
That means all filesystems are and all of the vfs is completely
oblivious to the actual implementation of idmappings.
We are now also able to extend struct mnt_idmap as we see fit. For
example, we can decouple it completely from namespaces for users that
don't require or don't want to use them at all. We can also extend
the concept of idmappings so we can cover filesystem specific
requirements.
In combination with the vfs{g,u}id_t work we finished in v6.2 this
makes this feature substantially more robust and thus difficult to
implement wrong by a given filesystem and also protects the vfs.
- Enable idmapped mounts for tmpfs and fulfill a longstanding request.
A long-standing request from users had been to make it possible to
create idmapped mounts for tmpfs. For example, to share the host's
tmpfs mount between multiple sandboxes. This is a prerequisite for
some advanced Kubernetes cases. Systemd also has a range of use-cases
to increase service isolation. And there are more users of this.
However, with all of the other work going on this was way down on the
priority list but luckily someone other than ourselves picked this
up.
As usual the patch is tiny as all the infrastructure work had been
done multiple kernel releases ago. In addition to all the tests that
we already have I requested that Rodrigo add a dedicated tmpfs
testsuite for idmapped mounts to xfstests. It is to be included into
xfstests during the v6.3 development cycle. This should add a slew of
additional tests.

https://git.linaro.org/people/jens.wiklander/linux-tee
Pull TEE update from Jens Wiklander:
"Remove get_kernel_pages()
Vmalloc page support is removed from shm_get_kernel_pages() and the
get_kernel_pages() call is replaced by calls to get_page(). With no
remaining callers of get_kernel_pages() the function is removed"
[ This looks like it's just some random 'tee' cleanup, but the bigger
picture impetus for this is really to to to remove historical
confusion with mixed use of kernel virtual addresses and 'struct page'
pointers.
Kernel virtual pointers in the vmalloc space is then particularly
confusing - both for looking up a page pointer (when trying to then
unify a "virtual address or page" interface) and _particularly_ when
mixed with HIGHMEM support and the kmap*() family of remapping.
This is particularly true with HIGHMEM getting much less test coverage
with 32-bit architectures being increasingly legacy targets.
So we actively wanted to remove get_kernel_pages() to make sure nobody
else used it too, and thus the 'tee' part is "finally remove last
user".
See also commit 6647e76ab623 ("v4l2: don't fall back to follow_pfn()
if pin_user_pages_fast() fails") for a totally different version of a
conceptually similar "let's stop this confusion of different ways of
referring to memory". - Linus ]

Nick Bowler reported another sparc64 breakage after the young/dirty
persistent work for page migration (per "Link:" below). That's after a
similar report [2].
It turns out page migration was overlooked, and it wasn't failing before
because page migration was not enabled in the initial report test
environment.
David proposed another way [2] to fix this from sparc64 side, but that
patch didn't land somehow. Neither did I check whether there's any other
arch that has similar issues.
Let's fix it for now as simple as moving the write bit handling to be
after dirty, like what we did before.
Note: this is based on mm-unstable, because the breakage was since 6.1 and
we're at a very late stage of 6.2 (-rc8), so I assume for this specific
case we should target this at 6.3.

Currently there are two kmem-related helper functions with a confusing
semantics: memcg_kmem_enabled() and mem_cgroup_kmem_disabled().
The problem is that an obvious expectation
memcg_kmem_enabled() == !mem_cgroup_kmem_disabled(),
can be false.
mem_cgroup_kmem_disabled() is similar to mem_cgroup_disabled(): it returns
true only if CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM is not set or the kmem accounting is
disabled using a boot time kernel option "cgroup.memory=nokmem". It never
changes the value dynamically.
memcg_kmem_enabled() is different: it always returns false until the first
non-root memory cgroup will get online (assuming the kernel memory
accounting is enabled). It's goal is to improve the performance on
systems without the cgroupfs mounted/memory controller enabled or on the
systems with only the root memory cgroup.
To make things more obvious and avoid potential bugs, let's rename
memcg_kmem_enabled() to memcg_kmem_online().

The extra space which is used to store the obj_cgroup membership is only
valid when kmemcg is enabled. The kmemcg can be disabled via the kernel
parameter "cgroup.memory=nokmem" at boot time. This helper is also used
in non-memcg code, for example the tracepoint, so we should fix it.
It was found by code review when I was implementing bpf memory usage[1].
No real issue happens in production environment.

In free_area_init(), we will continue to run after allocation of
memoryless node pgdat fails. However, in the subsequent process (such as
when initializing zonelist), the case that NODE_DATA(nid) is NULL is not
handled, which will cause panic. Instead of this, it's better to call
panic() directly when the memory allocation fails during system boot.

Recall that the per-node memcg LRU has two generations and they alternate
when the last memcg (of a given node) is moved from one to the other.
Each generation is also sharded into multiple bins to improve scalability.
A reclaimer starts with a random bin (in the old generation) and, if it
fails, it will retry, i.e., to try the rest of the bins.
If a reclaimer fails with the last memcg, it should move this memcg to the
young generation first, which causes the generations to alternate, and
then retry. Otherwise, the retries will be futile because all other bins
are empty.

The TLB flushing will cost quite some CPU cycles during the folio
migration in some situations. For example, when migrate a folio of a
process with multiple active threads that run on multiple CPUs. After
batching the _unmap and _move in migrate_pages(), the TLB flushing can be
batched easily with the existing TLB flush batching mechanism. This patch
implements that.
We use the following test case to test the patch.
On a 2-socket Intel server,
- Run pmbench memory accessing benchmark
- Run `migratepages` to migrate pages of pmbench between node 0 and
node 1 back and forth.
With the patch, the TLB flushing IPI reduces 99.1% during the test and the
number of pages migrated successfully per second increases 291.7%.
Haoxin helped to test the patchset on an ARM64 server with 128 cores, 2
NUMA nodes. Test results show that the page migration performance
increases up to 78%.
NOTE: TLB flushing is batched only for normal folios, not for THP folios.
Because the overhead of TLB flushing for THP folios is much lower than
that for normal folios (about 1/512 on x86 platform).

In this patch the _unmap and _move stage of the folio migration is
batched. That for, previously, it is,
for each folio
_unmap()
_move()
Now, it is,
for each folio
_unmap()
for each folio
_move()
Based on this, we can batch the TLB flushing and use some hardware
accelerator to copy folios between batched _unmap and batched _move
stages.

This is a preparation patch to batch the folio unmapping and moving.
In this patch, unmap_and_move() is split to migrate_folio_unmap() and
migrate_folio_move(). So, we can batch _unmap() and _move() in different
loops later. To pass some information between unmap and move, the
original unused dst->mapping and dst->private are used.

This is a preparation patch to batch the folio unmapping and moving for
non-hugetlb folios.
If we had batched the folio unmapping, all folios to be migrated would be
unmapped before copying the contents and flags of the folios. If the
folios that were passed to migrate_pages() were too many in unit of pages,
the execution of the processes would be stopped for too long time, thus
too long latency. For example, migrate_pages() syscall will call
migrate_pages() with all folios of a process. To avoid this possible
issue, in this patch, we restrict the number of pages to be migrated to be
no more than HPAGE_PMD_NR. That is, the influence is at the same level of
THP migration.

This is a preparation patch to batch the folio unmapping and moving for
the non-hugetlb folios. Based on that we can batch the TLB shootdown
during the folio migration and make it possible to use some hardware
accelerator for the folio copying.
In this patch the hugetlb folios and non-hugetlb folios migration is
separated in migrate_pages() to make it easy to change the non-hugetlb
folios migration implementation.

Patch series "migrate_pages(): batch TLB flushing", v5.
Now, migrate_pages() migrates folios one by one, like the fake code as
follows,
for each folio
unmap
flush TLB
copy
restore map
If multiple folios are passed to migrate_pages(), there are opportunities
to batch the TLB flushing and copying. That is, we can change the code to
something as follows,
for each folio
unmap
for each folio
flush TLB
for each folio
copy
for each folio
restore map
The total number of TLB flushing IPI can be reduced considerably. And we
may use some hardware accelerator such as DSA to accelerate the folio
copying.
So in this patch, we refactor the migrate_pages() implementation and
implement the TLB flushing batching. Base on this, hardware accelerated
folio copying can be implemented.
If too many folios are passed to migrate_pages(), in the naive batched
implementation, we may unmap too many folios at the same time. The
possibility for a task to wait for the migrated folios to be mapped again
increases. So the latency may be hurt. To deal with this issue, the max
number of folios be unmapped in batch is restricted to no more than
HPAGE_PMD_NR in the unit of page. That is, the influence is at the same
level of THP migration.
We use the following test to measure the performance impact of the
patchset,
On a 2-socket Intel server,
- Run pmbench memory accessing benchmark
- Run `migratepages` to migrate pages of pmbench between node 0 and
node 1 back and forth.
With the patch, the TLB flushing IPI reduces 99.1% during the test and
the number of pages migrated successfully per second increases 291.7%.
Xin Hao helped to test the patchset on an ARM64 server with 128 cores,
2 NUMA nodes. Test results show that the page migration performance
increases up to 78%.
This patch (of 9):
Define struct migrate_pages_stats to organize the various statistics in
migrate_pages(). This makes it easier to collect and consume the
statistics in multiple functions. This will be needed in the following
patches in the series.
