Use this_cpu_try_cmpxchg instead of this_cpu_cmpxchg (*ptr, old, new) == old in mod_zone_state and mod_node_state. x86 CMPXCHG instruction returns success in ZF flag, so this change saves a compare after cmpxchg (and related move instruction in front of cmpxchg). Also, try_cmpxchg implicitly assigns old *ptr value to "old" when cmpxchg fails. There is no need to re-read the value in the loop. No functional change intended.

si_mem_available() needlessly places LRU statistics into an array before retrieving only two of them, simply access those directly. In addition, refactor the code so that the blocks of code which calculate the page cache and reclaimable components each resemble one another to clearly indicate we cap both against wmark_low in the same fashion.

In set_nr_huge_pages(), local variable "count" is used to record persistent_huge_pages(), but when it cames to nodes huge page allocation, the semantics changes to nr_huge_pages. When there exists surplus huge pages and using the interface under /sys/devices/system/node/node*/hugepages to change huge page pool size, this difference can result in the allocation of an unexpected number of huge pages. Steps to reproduce the bug: Starting with: Node 0 Node 1 Total HugePages_Total 0.00 0.00 0.00 HugePages_Free 0.00 0.00 0.00 HugePages_Surp 0.00 0.00 0.00 create 100 huge pages in Node 0 and consume it, then set Node 0 's nr_hugepages to 0. yields: Node 0 Node 1 Total HugePages_Total 200.00 0.00 200.00 HugePages_Free 0.00 0.00 0.00 HugePages_Surp 200.00 0.00 200.00 write 100 to Node 1's nr_hugepages echo 100 > /sys/devices/system/node/node1/\ hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages gets: Node 0 Node 1 Total HugePages_Total 200.00 400.00 600.00 HugePages_Free 0.00 400.00 400.00 HugePages_Surp 200.00 0.00 200.00 Kernel is expected to create only 100 huge pages and it gives 200.

Mike Kravetz authored
Currently, vmemmap optimization of hugetlb pages is performed before the hugetlb flag (previously hugetlb destructor) is set identifying it as a hugetlb folio. This means there is a window of time where an ordinary folio does not have all associated vmemmap present. The core mm only expects vmemmap to be potentially optimized for hugetlb and device dax. This can cause problems in code such as memory error handling that may want to write to tail struct pages. There is only one call to perform hugetlb vmemmap optimization today. To fix this issue, simply set the hugetlb flag before that call. There was a similar issue in the free hugetlb path that was previously addressed. The two routines that optimize or restore hugetlb vmemmap should only be passed hugetlb folios/pages. To catch any callers not following this rule, add VM_WARN_ON calls to the routines. In the hugetlb free code paths, some calls could be made to restore vmemmap after clearing the hugetlb flag. This was 'safe' as in these cases vmemmap was already present and the call was a NOOP. However, for consistency these calls where eliminated so that we can add the VM_WARN_ON checks.

In strict mode, we should return 0 if there is any hole in pageblock. If we successfully isolated pages at beginning at pageblock and then have a bogus compound_order outside pageblock in next page. We will abort search loop with blockpfn > end_pfn. Although we will limit blockpfn to end_pfn, we will treat it as a successful isolation in strict mode as blockpfn is not < end_pfn and return partial isolated pages. Then isolate_freepages_range may success unexpectly with hole in isolated range.

We use move_freelist_head after list_for_each_entry_reverse to skip recent pages. And there is no need to do actual move if all freepages are searched in list_for_each_entry_reverse, e.g. freepage point to first page in freelist. It's more intuitively to call list_is_first with list entry as the first argument and list head as the second argument to check if list entry is the first list entry instead of call list_is_last with list entry and list head passed in reverse. Similarly, call list_is_last in move_freelist_tail is more intuitively.

Drivers must not reference functions marked with __exit as these likely are not available when the code is built-in. There are few creative offenders uncovered for example in ARCH=amd64 allmodconfig builds. So only trigger the section mismatch warning for W=1 builds. The dual rule that drivers must not reference .init.* is implemented since commit 0db25245 ("modpost: don't allow *driver to reference .init.*") which however missed that .exit.* should be handled in the same way.

Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt: - Make sure 32-bit applications using user events have aligned access when running on a 64-bit kernel. - Add cond_resched in the loop that handles converting enums in print_fmt string is trace events. - Fix premature wake ups of polling processes in the tracing ring buffer. When a task polls waiting for a percentage of the ring buffer to be filled, the writer still will wake it up at every event. Add the polling's percentage to the "shortest_full" list to tell the writer when to wake it up. - For eventfs dir lookups on dynamic events, an event system's only event could be removed, leaving its dentry with no children. This is totally legitimate. But in eventfs_release() it must not access the children array, as it is only allocated when the dentry has children. * tag 'trace-v6.6-rc3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace: eventfs: Test for dentries array allocated in eventfs_release() tracing/user_events: Align set_bit() address for all archs tracing: relax trace_event_eval_update() execution with cond_resched() ring-buffer: Update "shortest_full" in polling

The dcache_dir_open_wrapper() could be called when a dynamic event is being deleted leaving a dentry with no children. In this case the dlist->dentries array will never be allocated. This needs to be checked for in eventfs_release(), otherwise it will trigger a NULL pointer dereference.

All architectures should use a long aligned address passed to set_bit(). User processes can pass either a 32-bit or 64-bit sized value to be updated when tracing is enabled when on a 64-bit kernel. Both cases are ensured to be naturally aligned, however, that is not enough. The address must be long aligned without affecting checks on the value within the user process which require different adjustments for the bit for little and big endian CPUs. Add a compat flag to user_event_enabler that indicates when a 32-bit value is being used on a 64-bit kernel. Long align addresses and correct the bit to be used by set_bit() to account for this alignment. Ensure compat flags are copied during forks and used during deletion clears.

This can actually cause a problem since if another CPU call stop_machine(), the call will have to wait for the eval_map_work_func() function to finish executing in the workqueue before being able to be scheduled. This problem was observe on a SMP system at boot time, when the CPU calling the initcalls executed clocksource_done_booting() which in the end calls stop_machine(). We observed a 1 second delay because one CPU was executing eval_map_work_func() and was not preempted by the stop_machine() task. Adding a call to cond_resched() in trace_event_eval_update() allows other tasks to be executed and thus continue working asynchronously like before without blocking any pending task at boot time.

It was discovered that the ring buffer polling was incorrectly stating that read would not block, but that's because polling did not take into account that reads will block if the "buffer-percent" was set. Instead, the ring buffer polling would say reads would not block if there was any data in the ring buffer. This was incorrect behavior from a user space point of view. This was fixed by commit 42fb0a1e by having the polling code check if the ring buffer had more data than what the user specified "buffer percent" had. The problem now is that the polling code did not register itself to the writer that it wanted to wait for a specific "full" value of the ring buffer. The result was that the writer would wake the polling waiter whenever there was a new event. The polling waiter would then wake up, see that there's not enough data in the ring buffer to notify user space and then go back to sleep. The next event would wake it up again. Before the polling fix was added, the code would wake up around 100 times for a hackbench 30 benchmark. After the "fix", due to the constant waking of the writer, it would wake up over 11,0000 times! It would never leave the kernel, so the user space behavior was still "correct", but this definitely is not the desired effect. To fix this, have the polling code add what it's waiting for to the "shortest_full" variable, to tell the writer not to wake it up if the buffer is not as full as it expects to be. Note, after this fix, it appears that the waiter is now woken up around 2x the times it was before (~200). This is a tremendous improvement from the 11,000 times, but I will need to spend some time to see why polling is more aggressive in its wakeups than the read blocking code.
