At the time being when CONFIG_PTE_64BIT is selected, PTE entries are 64 bits but PGD entries are still 32 bits. In order to allow leaf PMD entries, switch the PGD to 64 bits entries.

enc field is hidden behind BOOK3E_PAGESZ_XX macros, and when you look closer you realise that this field is nothing else than the value of shift minus ten. So remove enc field and calculate tsize from shift field. Also remove inc field which is unused.

In order to fit better with standard Linux page tables layout, add support for 8M pages using contiguous PTE entries in a standard page table. Page tables will then be populated with 1024 similar entries and two PMD entries will point to that page table. The PMD entries also get a flag to tell it is addressing an 8M page, this is required for the HW tablewalk assistance.

Building on 32 bits with pmd_leaf() not returning always false leads to the following error: CC arch/powerpc/mm/pgtable.o arch/powerpc/mm/pgtable.c: In function '__find_linux_pte': arch/powerpc/mm/pgtable.c:506:1: error: function may return address of local variable [-Werror=return-local-addr] 506 | } | ^ arch/powerpc/mm/pgtable.c:394:15: note: declared here 394 | pud_t pud, *pudp; | ^~~ arch/powerpc/mm/pgtable.c:394:15: note: declared here This is due to pmd_offset() being a no-op in that case. So rework it for powerpc/32 so that pXd_offset() are used on real pointers and not on on-stack copies. Behind fixing the problem, it also has the advantage of simplifying __find_linux_pte() including the removal of stack frame: After this patch: 00000018 <__find_linux_pte>: 18: 2c 06 00 00 cmpwi r6,0 1c: 41 82 00 0c beq 28 <__find_linux_pte+0x10> 20: 39 20 00 00 li r9,0 24: 91 26 00 00 stw r9,0(r6) 28: 2f 85 00 00 cmpwi cr7,r5,0 2c: 41 9e 00 0c beq cr7,38 <__find_linux_pte+0x20> 30: 39 20 00 00 li r9,0 34: 99 25 00 00 stb r9,0(r5) 38: 54 89 65 3a rlwinm r9,r4,12,20,29 3c: 7c 63 48 2e lwzx r3,r3,r9 40: 2f 83 00 00 cmpwi cr7,r3,0 44: 41 9e 00 30 beq cr7,74 <__find_linux_pte+0x5c> 48: 54 69 07 3a rlwinm r9,r3,0,28,29 4c: 2f 89 00 0c cmpwi cr7,r9,12 50: 54 63 00 26 clrrwi r3,r3,12 54: 54 84 b5 36 rlwinm r4,r4,22,20,27 58: 3c 63 c0 00 addis r3,r3,-16384 5c: 7c 63 22 14 add r3,r3,r4 60: 4c be 00 20 bnelr+ cr7 64: 4d 82 00 20 beqlr 68: 39 20 00 17 li r9,23 6c: 91 26 00 00 stw r9,0(r6) 70: 4e 80 00 20 blr 74: 38 60 00 00 li r3,0 78: 4e 80 00 20 blr Before this patch: 00000018 <__find_linux_pte>: 18: 2c 06 00 00 cmpwi r6,0 1c: 94 21 ff e0 stwu r1,-32(r1) 20: 41 82 00 0c beq 2c <__find_linux_pte+0x14> 24: 39 20 00 00 li r9,0 28: 91 26 00 00 stw r9,0(r6) 2c: 2f 85 00 00 cmpwi cr7,r5,0 30: 41 9e 00 0c beq cr7,3c <__find_linux_pte+0x24> 34: 39 20 00 00 li r9,0 38: 99 25 00 00 stb r9,0(r5) 3c: 54 89 65 3a rlwinm r9,r4,12,20,29 40: 7c 63 48 2e lwzx r3,r3,r9 44: 54 69 07 3a rlwinm r9,r3,0,28,29 48: 2f 89 00 0c cmpwi cr7,r9,12 4c: 90 61 00 0c stw r3,12(r1) 50: 41 9e 00 4c beq cr7,9c <__find_linux_pte+0x84> 54: 80 61 00 0c lwz r3,12(r1) 58: 54 69 07 3a rlwinm r9,r3,0,28,29 5c: 2f 89 00 0c cmpwi cr7,r9,12 60: 90 61 00 08 stw r3,8(r1) 64: 41 9e 00 38 beq cr7,9c <__find_linux_pte+0x84> 68: 80 61 00 08 lwz r3,8(r1) 6c: 2f 83 00 00 cmpwi cr7,r3,0 70: 41 9e 00 54 beq cr7,c4 <__find_linux_pte+0xac> 74: 54 69 07 3a rlwinm r9,r3,0,28,29 78: 2f 89 00 0c cmpwi cr7,r9,12 7c: 54 69 00 26 clrrwi r9,r3,12 80: 54 8a b5 36 rlwinm r10,r4,22,20,27 84: 3c 69 c0 00 addis r3,r9,-16384 88: 7c 63 52 14 add r3,r3,r10 8c: 54 84 93 be srwi r4,r4,14 90: 41 9e 00 14 beq cr7,a4 <__find_linux_pte+0x8c> 94: 38 21 00 20 addi r1,r1,32 98: 4e 80 00 20 blr 9c: 54 69 00 26 clrrwi r9,r3,12 a0: 54 84 93 be srwi r4,r4,14 a4: 3c 69 c0 00 addis r3,r9,-16384 a8: 54 84 25 36 rlwinm r4,r4,4,20,27 ac: 7c 63 22 14 add r3,r3,r4 b0: 41 a2 ff e4 beq 94 <__find_linux_pte+0x7c> b4: 39 20 00 17 li r9,23 b8: 91 26 00 00 stw r9,0(r6) bc: 38 21 00 20 addi r1,r1,32 c0: 4e 80 00 20 blr c4: 38 60 00 00 li r3,0 c8: 38 21 00 20 addi r1,r1,32 cc: 4e 80 00 20 blr Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/50a3cfbab5b11890a0da027de5cb011a9d47ba89.1719928057.git.christophe.leroy@csgroup.euSigned-off-by: -

On powerpc 8xx huge_ptep_get() will need to know whether the given ptep is a PTE entry or a PMD entry. This cannot be known with the PMD entry itself because there is no easy way to know it from the content of the entry. So huge_ptep_get() will need to know either the size of the page or get the pmd. In order to be consistent with huge_ptep_get_and_clear(), give mm and address to huge_ptep_get().

On powerpc 8xx, when a page is 8M size, the information is in the PMD entry. So allow architectures to provide __pte_leaf_size() instead of pte_leaf_size() and provide the PMD entry to that function. When __pte_leaf_size() is not defined, define it as a pte_leaf_size() so that architectures not interested in the PMD arguments are not impacted. Only define a default pte_leaf_size() when __pte_leaf_size() is not defined to make sure nobody adds new calls to pte_leaf_size() in the core.

There are two possibilities for book3e_htw_mode, PPC_HTW_E6500 or PPC_HTW_NONE. The TLB miss handlers are patched to use, respectively: - exc_[data|indstruction]_tlb_miss_e6500_book3e - exc_[data|indstruction]_tlb_miss_bolted_book3e Which means the default handlers are never used. Remove those, and use the bolted handlers (PPC_HTW_NONE) by default. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/9a670adc1771fb1871fba93ace5372f7eadc286f.1719928057.git.christophe.leroy@csgroup.euSigned-off-by:

Patch series "Reimplement huge pages without hugepd on powerpc (8xx, e500, book3s/64)", v7. Unlike most architectures, powerpc 8xx HW requires a two-level pagetable topology for all page sizes. So a leaf PMD-contig approach is not feasible as such. Possible sizes on 8xx are 4k, 16k, 512k and 8M. First level (PGD/PMD) covers 4M per entry. For 8M pages, two PMD entries must point to a single entry level-2 page table. Until now that was done using hugepd. This series changes it to use standard page tables where the entry is replicated 1024 times on each of the two pagetables refered by the two associated PMD entries for that 8M page. For e500 and book3s/64 there are less constraints because it is not tied to the HW assisted tablewalk like on 8xx, so it is easier to use leaf PMDs (and PUDs). On e500 the supported page sizes are 4M, 16M, 64M, 256M and 1G. All at PMD level on e500/32 (mpc85xx) and mix of PMD and PUD for e500/64. We encode page size with 4 available bits in PTE entries. On e300/32 PGD entries size is increases to 64 bits in order to allow leaf-PMD entries because PTE are 64 bits on e500. On book3s/64 only the hash-4k mode is concerned. It supports 16M pages as cont-PMD and 16G pages as cont-PUD. In other modes (radix-4k, radix-6k and hash-64k) the sizes match with PMD and PUD sizes so that's just leaf entries. The hash processing make things a bit more complex. To ease things, __hash_page_huge() is modified to bail out when DIRTY or ACCESSED bits are missing, leaving it to mm core to fix it. This patch (of 23): The nohash HTW_IBM (Hardware Table Walk) code is unused since support for A2 was removed in commit fb5a5157 ("powerpc: Remove platforms/ wsp and associated pieces") (2014). The remaining supported CPUs use either no HTW (data_tlb_miss_bolted), or the e6500 HTW (data_tlb_miss_e6500).

A cosmetic change. o Rename class_stat_inc() and class_stat_dec() to class_stat_add() and class_stat_sub() correspondingly. inc/dec are usually associated with +1/-1 modifications, while zsmlloc can modify stats by up to ->objs_per_zspage. Use add/sub (follow atomics naming). o Rename zs_stat_get() to class_stat_read() get() is usually associated with ref-counting and is paired with put(). zs_stat_get() simply reads class stat so rename to reflect it.

But this special async free path use "splice" instead of remove_zspage(), so the per-fullness zspage count for ZS_INUSE_RATIO_0 won't decrease. Clean things up by decreasing when iterate over the zspage free list. This doesn't actually fix anything. ZS_INUSE_RATIO_0 is just a "placeholder" which is never used anywhere.

The need to get ELF build ID reliably is an important aspect when dealing with profiling and stack trace symbolization, and /proc/<pid>/maps textual representation doesn't help with this. To get backing file's ELF build ID, application has to first resolve VMA, then use it's start/end address range to follow a special /proc/<pid>/map_files/<start>-<end> symlink to open the ELF file (this is necessary because backing file might have been removed from the disk or was already replaced with another binary in the same file path. Such approach, beyond just adding complexity of having to do a bunch of extra work, has extra security implications. Because application opens underlying ELF file and needs read access to its entire contents (as far as kernel is concerned), kernel puts additional capable() checks on following /proc/<pid>/map_files/<start>-<end> symlink. And that makes sense in general. But in the case of build ID, profiler/symbolizer doesn't need the contents of ELF file, per se. It's only build ID that is of interest, and ELF build ID itself doesn't provide any sensitive information. So this patch adds a way to request backing file's ELF build ID along the rest of VMA information in the same API. User has control over whether this piece of information is requested or not by either setting build_id_size field to zero or non-zero maximum buffer size they provided through build_id_addr field (which encodes user pointer as __u64 field). This is a completely optional piece of information, and so has no performance implications for user cases that don't care about build ID, while improving performance and simplifying the setup for those application that do need it. Kernel already implements build ID fetching, which is used from BPF subsystem. We are reusing this code here, but plan a follow up changes to make it work better under more relaxed assumption (compared to what existing code assumes) of being called from user process context, in which page faults are allowed. BPF-specific implementation currently bails out if necessary part of ELF file is not paged in, all due to extra BPF-specific restrictions (like the need to fetch build ID in restrictive contexts such as NMI handler).

/proc/<pid>/maps file is extremely useful in practice for various tasks involving figuring out process memory layout, what files are backing any given memory range, etc. One important class of applications that absolutely rely on this are profilers/stack symbolizers (perf tool being one of them). Patterns of use differ, but they generally would fall into two categories. In on-demand pattern, a profiler/symbolizer would normally capture stack trace containing absolute memory addresses of some functions, and would then use /proc/<pid>/maps file to find corresponding backing ELF files (normally, only executable VMAs are of interest), file offsets within them, and then continue from there to get yet more information (ELF symbols, DWARF information) to get human-readable symbolic information. This pattern is used by Meta's fleet-wide profiler, as one example. In preprocessing pattern, application doesn't know the set of addresses of interest, so it has to fetch all relevant VMAs (again, probably only executable ones), store or cache them, then proceed with profiling and stack trace capture. Once done, it would do symbolization based on stored VMA information. This can happen at much later point in time. This patterns is used by perf tool, as an example. In either case, there are both performance and correctness requirement involved. This address to VMA information translation has to be done as efficiently as possible, but also not miss any VMA (especially in the case of loading/unloading shared libraries). In practice, correctness can't be guaranteed (due to process dying before VMA data can be captured, or shared library being unloaded, etc), but any effort to maximize the chance of finding the VMA is appreciated. Unfortunately, for all the /proc/<pid>/maps file universality and usefulness, it doesn't fit the above use cases 100%. First, it's main purpose is to emit all VMAs sequentially, but in practice captured addresses would fall only into a smaller subset of all process' VMAs, mainly containing executable text. Yet, library would need to parse most or all of the contents to find needed VMAs, as there is no way to skip VMAs that are of no use. Efficient library can do the linear pass and it is still relatively efficient, but it's definitely an overhead that can be avoided, if there was a way to do more targeted querying of the relevant VMA information. Second, it's a text based interface, which makes its programmatic use from applications and libraries more cumbersome and inefficient due to the need to handle text parsing to get necessary pieces of information. The overhead is actually payed both by kernel, formatting originally binary VMA data into text, and then by user space application, parsing it back into binary data for further use. For the on-demand pattern of usage, described above, another problem when writing generic stack trace symbolization library is an unfortunate performance-vs-correctness tradeoff that needs to be made. Library has to make a decision to either cache parsed contents of /proc/<pid>/maps (after initial processing) to service future requests (if application requests to symbolize another set of addresses (for the same process), captured at some later time, which is typical for periodic/continuous profiling cases) to avoid higher costs of re-parsing this file. Or it has to choose to cache the contents in memory to speed up future requests. In the former case, more memory is used for the cache and there is a risk of getting stale data if application loads or unloads shared libraries, or otherwise changed its set of VMAs somehow, e.g., through additional mmap() calls. In the latter case, it's the performance hit that comes from re-opening the file and re-parsing its contents all over again. This patch aims to solve this problem by providing a new API built on top of /proc/<pid>/maps. It's meant to address both non-selectiveness and text nature of /proc/<pid>/maps, by giving user more control of what sort of VMA(s) needs to be queried, and being binary-based interface eliminates the overhead of text formatting (on kernel side) and parsing (on user space side). It's also designed to be extensible and forward/backward compatible by including required struct size field, which user has to provide. We use established copy_struct_from_user() approach to handle extensibility. User has a choice to pick either getting VMA that covers provided address or -ENOENT if none is found (exact, least surprising, case). Or, with an extra query flag (PROCMAP_QUERY_COVERING_OR_NEXT_VMA), they can get either VMA that covers the address (if there is one), or the closest next VMA (i.e., VMA with the smallest vm_start > addr). The latter allows more efficient use, but, given it could be a surprising behavior, requires an explicit opt-in. There is another query flag that is useful for some use cases. PROCMAP_QUERY_FILE_BACKED_VMA instructs this API to only return file-backed VMAs. Combining this with PROCMAP_QUERY_COVERING_OR_NEXT_VMA makes it possible to efficiently iterate only file-backed VMAs of the process, which is what profilers/symbolizers are normally interested in. All the above querying flags can be combined with (also optional) set of desired VMA permissions flags. This allows to, for example, iterate only an executable subset of VMAs, which is what preprocessing pattern, used by perf tool, would benefit from, as the assumption is that captured stack traces would have addresses of executable code. This saves time by skipping non-executable VMAs altogether efficienty. All these querying flags (modifiers) are orthogonal and can be combined in a semantically meaningful and natural way. Basing this ioctl()-based API on top of /proc/<pid>/maps's FD makes sense given it's querying the same set of VMA data. It's also benefitial because permission checks for /proc/<pid>/maps is performed at open time once, and the actual data read of text contents of /proc/<pid>/maps is done without further permission checks. We piggyback on this pattern with ioctl()-based API as well, as that's a desired property. Both for performance reasons, but also for security and flexibility reasons. Allowing application to open an FD for /proc/self/maps without any extra capabilities, and then passing it to some sort of profiling agent through Unix-domain socket, would allow such profiling agent to not require some of the capabilities that are otherwise expected when opening /proc/<pid>/maps file for *another* process. This is a desirable property for some more restricted setups. This new ioctl-based implementation doesn't interfere with seq_file-based implementation of /proc/<pid>/maps textual interface, and so could be used together or independently without paying any price for that. Note also, that fetching VMA name (e.g., backing file path, or special hard-coded or user-provided names) is optional just like build ID. If user sets vma_name_size to zero, kernel code won't attempt to retrieve it, saving resources. Earlier versions of this patch set were adding per-VMA locking, which is why we have a code structure that is ready for abstracting mmap_lock vs vm_lock differences (query_vma_setup(), query_vma_teardown(), and query_vma_find_by_addr()), but given anon_vma_name() is not yet compatible with per-VMA locking, initial implementation sticks to using only mmap_lock for now. It will be easy to add back per-VMA locking once all the pieces are ready later on. Which is why we keep existing code structure with setup/teardown/query helper functions.

Patch series "ioctl()-based API to query VMAs from /proc/<pid>/maps", v6. Implement binary ioctl()-based interface to /proc/<pid>/maps file to allow applications to query VMA information more efficiently than reading *all* VMAs nonselectively through text-based interface of /proc/<pid>/maps file. Patch #2 goes into a lot of details and background on some common patterns of using /proc/<pid>/maps in the area of performance profiling and subsequent symbolization of captured stack traces. As mentioned in that patch, patterns of VMA querying can differ depending on specific use case, but can generally be grouped into two main categories: the need to query a small subset of VMAs covering a given batch of addresses, or reading/storing/caching all (typically, executable) VMAs upfront for later processing. The new PROCMAP_QUERY ioctl() API added in this patch set was motivated by the former pattern of usage. Earlier revisions had a patch adding a tool that faithfully reproduces an efficient VMA matching pass of a symbolizer, collecting a subset of covering VMAs for a given set of addresses as efficiently as possible. This tool served both as a testing ground, as well as a benchmarking tool. It implements everything both for currently existing text-based /proc/<pid>/maps interface, as well as for newly-added PROCMAP_QUERY ioctl(). This revision dropped the tool from the patch set and, once the API lands upstream, this tool might be added separately on Github as an example. Based on discussion on earlier revisions of this patch set, it turned out that this ioctl() API is competitive with highly-optimized text-based pre-processing pattern that perf tool is using. Based on perf discussion, this revision adds more flexibility in specifying a subset of VMAs that are of interest. Now it's possible to specify desired permissions of VMAs (e.g., request only executable ones) and/or restrict to only a subset of VMAs that have file backing. This further improves the efficiency when using this new API thanks to more selective (executable VMAs only) querying. In addition to a custom benchmarking tool, and experimental perf integration (available at [0]), Daniel Mueller has since also implemented an experimental integration into blazesym (see [1]), a library used for stack trace symbolization by our server fleet-wide profiler and another on-device profiler agent that runs on weaker ARM devices. The latter ARM-based device profiler is especially sensitive to performance, and so we benchmarked and compared text-based /proc/<pid>/maps solution to the equivalent one using PROCMAP_QUERY ioctl(). Results are very encouraging, giving us 5x improvement for end-to-end so-called "address normalization" pass, which is the part of the symbolization process that happens locally on ARM device, before being sent out for further heavier-weight processing on more powerful remote server. Note that this is not an artificial microbenchmark. It's a full end-to-end API call being measured with real-world data on real-world device. TEXT-BASED ========== Benchmarking main/normalize_process_no_build_ids_uncached_maps main/normalize_process_no_build_ids_uncached_maps time: [49.777 µs 49.982 µs 50.250 µs] IOCTL-BASED =========== Benchmarking main/normalize_process_no_build_ids_uncached_maps main/normalize_process_no_build_ids_uncached_maps time: [10.328 µs 10.391 µs 10.457 µs] change: [−79.453% −79.304% −79.166%] (p = 0.00 < 0.02) Performance has improved. You can see above that we see the drop from 50µs down to 10µs for exactly the same amount of work, with the same data and target process. With the aforementioned custom tool, we see about ~40x improvement (it might vary a bit, depending on a specific captured set of addresses). And even for perf-based benchmark it's on par or slightly ahead when using permission-based filtering (fetching only executable VMAs). Earlier revisions attempted to use per-VMA locking, if kernel was compiled with CONFIG_PER_VMA_LOCK=y, but it turned out that anon_vma_name() is not yet compatible with per-VMA locking and assumes mmap_lock to be taken, which makes the use of per-VMA locking for this API premature. It was agreed ([2]) to continue for now with just mmap_lock, but the code structure is such that it should be easy to add per-VMA locking support once all the pieces are ready. One thing that did not change was basing this new API as an ioctl() command on /proc/<pid>/maps file. An ioctl-based API on top of pidfd was considered, but has its own downsides. Implementing ioctl() directly on pidfd will cause access permission checks on every single ioctl(), which leads to performance concerns and potential spam of capable() audit messages. It also prevents a nice pattern, possible with /proc/<pid>/maps, in which application opens /proc/self/maps FD (requiring no additional capabilities) and passed this FD to profiling agent for querying. To achieve similar pattern, a new file would have to be created from pidf just for VMA querying, which is considered to be inferior to just querying /proc/<pid>/maps FD as proposed in current approach. These aspects were discussed in the hallway track at recent LSF/MM/BPF 2024 and sticking to procfs ioctl() was the final agreement we arrived at.

This could be just some string (either special constant or user-provided), or a string with some formatted wrapping text (e.g., "[anon_shmem:<something>]"), or, commonly, file path. seq_file-based logic has different methods to handle all three cases, but they are currently mixed in with extracting underlying sources of data. This patch splits this into data fetching and data formatting, so that data fetching can be reused later on. There should be no functional changes.

Since the memfd pages associated with a udmabuf may be migrated as part of udmabuf create, we need to verify the data coherency after successful migration. The new tests added in this patch try to do just that using 4k sized pages and also 2 MB sized huge pages for the memfd. Successful completion of the tests would mean that there is no disconnect between the memfd pages and the ones associated with a udmabuf. And, these tests can also be augmented in the future to test newer udmabuf features (such as handling memfd hole punch). The idea for these tests comes from a patch by Mike Kravetz here: https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/dri-devel/2023-June/410623.html v1->v2: (suggestions from Shuah) - Use ksft_* functions to print and capture results of tests - Use appropriate KSFT_* status codes for exit() - Add Mike Kravetz's suggested-by tag Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20240624063952.1572359-10-vivek.kasireddy@intel.comSigned-off-by:

Using memfd_pin_folios() will ensure that the pages are pinned correctly using FOLL_PIN. And, this also ensures that we don't accidentally break features such as memory hotunplug as it would not allow pinning pages in the movable zone. Using this new API also simplifies the code as we no longer have to deal with extracting individual pages from their mappings or handle shmem and hugetlb cases separately.

This is mainly a preparatory patch to use memfd_pin_folios() API for pinning folios. Using folios instead of pages makes sense as the udmabuf driver needs to handle both shmem and hugetlb cases. And, using the memfd_pin_folios() API makes this easier as we no longer need to separately handle shmem vs hugetlb cases in the udmabuf driver. Note that, the function vmap_udmabuf() still needs a list of pages; so, we collect all the head pages into a local array in this case. Other changes in this patch include the addition of helpers for checking the memfd seals and exporting dmabuf. Moving code from udmabuf_create() into these helpers improves readability given that udmabuf_create() is a bit long.

A user or admin can configure a VMM (Qemu) Guest's memory to be backed by hugetlb pages for various reasons. However, a Guest OS would still allocate (and pin) buffers that are backed by regular 4k sized pages. In order to map these buffers and create dma-bufs for them on the Host, we first need to find the hugetlb pages where the buffer allocations are located and then determine the offsets of individual chunks (within those pages) and use this information to eventually populate a scatterlist. Testcase: default_hugepagesz=2M hugepagesz=2M hugepages=2500 options were passed to the Host kernel and Qemu was launched with these relevant options: qemu-system-x86_64 -m 4096m.... -device virtio-gpu-pci,max_outputs=1,blob=true,xres=1920,yres=1080 -display gtk,gl=on -object memory-backend-memfd,hugetlb=on,id=mem1,size=4096M -machine memory-backend=mem1 Replacing -display gtk,gl=on with -display gtk,gl=off above would exercise the mmap handler.

For drivers that would like to longterm-pin the folios associated with a memfd, the memfd_pin_folios() API provides an option to not only pin the folios via FOLL_PIN but also to check and migrate them if they reside in movable zone or CMA block. This API currently works with memfds but it should work with any files that belong to either shmemfs or hugetlbfs. Files belonging to other filesystems are rejected for now. The folios need to be located first before pinning them via FOLL_PIN. If they are found in the page cache, they can be immediately pinned. Otherwise, they need to be allocated using the filesystem specific APIs and then pinned.

This patch also includes changes to rename and convert the internal functions collect_longterm_unpinnable_pages() and migrate_longterm_unpinnable_pages() to work on folios.

Patch series "mm/gup: Introduce memfd_pin_folios() for pinning memfd folios", v16. Currently, some drivers (e.g, Udmabuf) that want to longterm-pin the pages/folios associated with a memfd, do so by simply taking a reference on them. This is not desirable because the pages/folios may reside in Movable zone or CMA block. Therefore, having drivers use memfd_pin_folios() API ensures that the folios are appropriately pinned via FOLL_PIN for longterm DMA. This patchset also introduces a few helpers and converts the Udmabuf driver to use folios and memfd_pin_folios() API to longterm-pin the folios for DMA. Two new Udmabuf selftests are also included to test the driver and the new API. This patch (of 9): These helpers are the folio versions of unpin_user_page/unpin_user_pages. They are currently only useful for unpinning folios pinned by memfd_pin_folios() or other associated routines. However, they could find new uses in the future, when more and more folio-only helpers are added to GUP. We should probably sanity check the folio as part of unpin similar to how it is done in unpin_user_page/unpin_user_pages but we cannot cleanly do that at the moment without also checking the subpage. Therefore, sanity checking needs to be added to these routines once we have a way to determine if any given folio is anon-exclusive (via a per folio AnonExclusive flag).

Patch series "mm/zsmalloc: change back to per-size_class lock, v2". Commit c0547d0b ("zsmalloc: consolidate zs_pool's migrate_lock and size_class's locks") changed per-size_class lock to pool spinlock to prepare reclaim support in zsmalloc. Then reclaim support in zsmalloc had been dropped in favor of LRU reclaim in zswap, but this locking change had been left there. Obviously, the scalability of pool spinlock is worse than per-size_class. And we have a workaround that using 32 pools in zswap to avoid this scalability problem, which brings its own problems like memory waste and more memory fragmentation. So this series changes back to use per-size_class lock and using testing data in much stressed situation to verify that we can use only one pool in zswap. Note we only test and care about the zsmalloc backend, which makes sense now since zsmalloc became a lot more popular than other backends. Testing kernel build (make bzImage -j32) on tmpfs with memory.max=1GB, and zswap shrinker enabled with 10GB swapfile on ext4. real user sys 6.10.0-rc3 138.18 1241.38 1452.73 6.10.0-rc3-onepool 149.45 1240.45 1844.69 6.10.0-rc3-onepool-perclass 138.23 1242.37 1469.71 We can see from "sys" column that per-size_class locking with only one pool in zswap can have near performance with the current 32 pools. This patch (of 2): This patch is almost the revert of the commit c0547d0b ("zsmalloc: consolidate zs_pool's migrate_lock and size_class's locks"), which changed to use a global pool->lock instead of per-size_class lock and pool->migrate_lock, was preparation for suppporting reclaim in zsmalloc. Then reclaim in zsmalloc had been dropped in favor of LRU reclaim in zswap. In theory, per-size_class is more fine-grained than the pool->lock, since a pool can have many size_classes. As for the additional pool->migrate_lock, only free() and map() need to grab it to access stable handle to get zspage, and only in read lock mode.

If CONFIG_ZSWAP is set to N, it means zswap cannot be enabled. zswap_never_enabled() should return true. The only effect of this issue is that with Barry's latest large folio swapin patches for zram ("mm: support mTHP swap-in for zRAM-like swapfile"), we will always fallback to order-0 swapin, even mistakenly when !CONFIG_ZSWAP. Basically this bug makes Barry's in progress patches not work at all. The API was created to inform the mm core that zswap has never been enabled, allowing the mm core to perform mTHP swap-in. This is a transitional solution until zswap supports mTHP. If zswap has been enabled, performing mTHP swap-in will result in corrupted data.
