Patch series "Convert deactivate_page() to folio_deactivate()", v4. Deactivate_page() has already been converted to use folios. This patch series modifies the callers of deactivate_page() to use folios. It also introduces vm_normal_folio() to assist with folio conversions, and converts deactivate_page() to folio_deactivate() which takes in a folio. This patch (of 4): Introduce a wrapper function called vm_normal_folio(). This function calls vm_normal_page() and returns the folio of the page found, or null if no page is found. This function allows callers to get a folio from a pte, which will eventually allow them to completely replace their struct page variables with struct folio instead.

As Hardware Tag-Based KASAN is intended to be used in production, its performance impact is crucial. As page_alloc allocations tend to be big, tagging and checking all such allocations can introduce a significant slowdown. Add two new boot parameters that allow to alleviate that slowdown: - kasan.page_alloc.sample, which makes Hardware Tag-Based KASAN tag only every Nth page_alloc allocation with the order configured by the second added parameter (default: tag every such allocation). - kasan.page_alloc.sample.order, which makes sampling enabled by the first parameter only affect page_alloc allocations with the order equal or greater than the specified value (default: 3, see below). The exact performance improvement caused by using the new parameters depends on their values and the applied workload. The chosen default value for kasan.page_alloc.sample.order is 3, which matches both PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER and SKB_FRAG_PAGE_ORDER. This is done for two reasons: 1. PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER is "the order at which allocations are deemed costly to service", which corresponds to the idea that only large and thus costly allocations are supposed to sampled. 2. One of the workloads targeted by this patch is a benchmark that sends a large amount of data over a local loopback connection. Most multi-page data allocations in the networking subsystem have the order of SKB_FRAG_PAGE_ORDER (or PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER). When running a local loopback test on a testing MTE-enabled device in sync mode, enabling Hardware Tag-Based KASAN introduces a ~50% slowdown. Applying this patch and setting kasan.page_alloc.sampling to a value higher than 1 allows to lower the slowdown. The performance improvement saturates around the sampling interval value of 10 with the default sampling page order of 3. This lowers the slowdown to ~20%. The slowdown in real scenarios involving the network will likely be better. Enabling page_alloc sampling has a downside: KASAN misses bad accesses to a page_alloc allocation that has not been tagged. This lowers the value of KASAN as a security mitigation. However, based on measuring the number of page_alloc allocations of different orders during boot in a test build, sampling with the default kasan.page_alloc.sample.order value affects only ~7% of allocations. The rest ~93% of allocations are still checked deterministically. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/129da0614123bb85ed4dd61ae30842b2dd7c903f.1671471846.git.andreyknvl@google.comSigned-off-by:

All its callers either already hold a reference to, or lock the swap device while calling this function. There is only one exception in shmem_swapin_folio, just make this caller also hold a reference of the swap device, so this helper can be simplified and saves a few cycles. This also provides finer control of error handling in shmem_swapin_folio, on race (with swap off), it can just try again. For invalid swap entry, it can fail with a proper error code.

In some cases, for example if users have confidence at anonymous pages management or the swap device is too slow, users would want to avoid DAMON_RECLAIM swapping the anonymous pages out. For such case, add yet another DAMON_RECLAIM parameter, namely 'skip_anon'. When it is set as 'Y', DAMON_RECLAIM will avoid reclaiming anonymous pages using a DAMOS filter.

Patch series "implement DAMOS filtering for anon pages and/or specific memory cgroups" DAMOS let users do system operations in a data access pattern oriented way. The data access pattern, which is extracted by DAMON, is somewhat accurate more than what user space could know in many cases. However, in some situation, users could know something more than the kernel about the pattern or some special requirements for some types of memory or processes. For example, some users would have slow swap devices and knows latency-ciritical processes and therefore want to use DAMON-based proactive reclamation (DAMON_RECLAIM) for only non-anonymous pages of non-latency-critical processes. For such restriction, users could exclude the memory regions from the initial monitoring regions and use non-dynamic monitoring regions update monitoring operations set including fvaddr and paddr. They could also adjust the DAMOS target access pattern. For dynamically changing memory layout and access pattern, those would be not enough. To help the case, add an interface, namely DAMOS filters, which can be used to avoid the DAMOS actions be applied to specific types of memory, to DAMON kernel API (damon.h). At the moment, it supports filtering anonymous pages and/or specific memory cgroups in or out for each DAMOS scheme. This patchset adds the support for all DAMOS actions that 'paddr' monitoring operations set supports ('pageout', 'lru_prio', and 'lru_deprio'), and the functionality is exposed via DAMON kernel API (damon.h) the DAMON sysfs interface (/sys/kernel/mm/damon/admins/), and DAMON_RECLAIM module parameters. Patches Sequence ---------------- First patch implements DAMOS filter interface to DAMON kernel API. Second patch makes the physical address space monitoring operations set to support the filters from all supporting DAMOS actions. Third patch adds anonymous pages filter support to DAMON_RECLAIM, and the fourth patch documents the DAMON_RECLAIM's new feature. Fifth to seventh patches implement DAMON sysfs files for support of the filters, and eighth patch connects the file to use DAMOS filters feature. Ninth patch adds simple self test cases for DAMOS filters of the sysfs interface. Finally, following two patches (tenth and eleventh) document the new features and interfaces. This patch (of 11): DAMOS lets users do system operation in a data access pattern oriented way. The data access pattern, which is extracted by DAMON, is somewhat accurate more than what user space could know in many cases. However, in some situation, users could know something more than the kernel about the pattern or some special requirements for some types of memory or processes.

The impelmentation should be made in the monitoring operations sets, and following commits will add that.

Charge moving mode in cgroup1 allows memory to follow tasks as they migrate between cgroups. This is, and always has been, a questionable thing to do - for several reasons. First, it's expensive. Pages need to be identified, locked and isolated from various MM operations, and reassigned, one by one. Second, it's unreliable. Once pages are charged to a cgroup, there isn't always a clear owner task anymore. Cache isn't moved at all, for example. Mapped memory is moved - but if trylocking or isolating a page fails, it's arbitrarily left behind. Frequent moving between domains may leave a task's memory scattered all over the place. Third, it isn't really needed. Launcher tasks can kick off workload tasks directly in their target cgroup. Using dedicated per-workload groups allows fine-grained policy adjustments - no need to move tasks and their physical pages between control domains. The feature was never forward-ported to cgroup2, and it hasn't been missed. Despite it being a niche usecase, the maintenance overhead of supporting it is enormous. Because pages are moved while they are live and subject to various MM operations, the synchronization rules are complicated. There are lock_page_memcg() in MM and FS code, which non-cgroup people don't understand. In some cases we've been able to shift code and cgroup API calls around such that we can rely on native locking as much as possible. But that's fragile, and sometimes we need to hold MM locks for longer than we otherwise would (pte lock e.g.). Mark the feature deprecated. Hopefully we can remove it soon. And backport into -stable kernels so that people who develop against earlier kernels are warned about this deprecation as early as possible.

Patch series "mm: push down lock_page_memcg()", v2. This patch (of 3): During charge moving, the pte lock and the page lock cover nearly all cases of stabilizing page_mapped(). The only exception is when we're looking at a non-present pte and find a page in the page cache or in the swapcache: if the page is mapped elsewhere, it can become unmapped outside of our control. For this reason, rmap needs lock_page_memcg(). We don't like cgroup-specific locks in generic MM code - especially in performance-critical MM code - and for a legacy feature that's unlikely to have many users left - if any. So remove the exception. Arguably that's better semantics anyway: the page is shared, and another process seems to be the more active user. Once we stop moving such pages, rmap doesn't need lock_page_memcg() anymore. The next patch will remove it.

The result of the allocation attempt is not printed in trace_cma_alloc_finish, but it's important to do it so we can set filters to catch specific errors on allocation or to trigger some operations on specific errors. We have printed the result in log, but the log is conditional and could not be filtered by tracing events. It introduces little overhead to print this result. The result of allocation is named `errorno' in the trace. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20221208142130.1501195-1-haowenchao@huawei.comSigned-off-by:
