This is the folio equivalent of page_mapping_file(), but rename it to make it clear that it's very different from page_file_mapping(). Theoretically, there's nothing flush-only about it, but there are no other users today, and I doubt there will be; it's almost always more useful to know the swapfile's mapping or the swapcache's mapping.

Patch series "New page table range API", v6. This patchset changes the API used by the MM to set up page table entries. The four APIs are: set_ptes(mm, addr, ptep, pte, nr) update_mmu_cache_range(vma, addr, ptep, nr) flush_dcache_folio(folio) flush_icache_pages(vma, page, nr) flush_dcache_folio() isn't technically new, but no architecture implemented it, so I've done that for them. The old APIs remain around but are mostly implemented by calling the new interfaces. The new APIs are based around setting up N page table entries at once. The N entries belong to the same PMD, the same folio and the same VMA, so ptep++ is a legitimate operation, and locking is taken care of for you. Some architectures can do a better job of it than just a loop, but I have hesitated to make too deep a change to architectures I don't understand well. One thing I have changed in every architecture is that PG_arch_1 is now a per-folio bit instead of a per-page bit when used for dcache clean/dirty tracking. This was something that would have to happen eventually, and it makes sense to do it now rather than iterate over every page involved in a cache flush and figure out if it needs to happen. The point of all this is better performance, and Fengwei Yin has measured improvement on x86. I suspect you'll see improvement on your architecture too. Try the new will-it-scale test mentioned here: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20230206140639.538867-5-fengwei.yin@intel.com/ You'll need to run it on an XFS filesystem and have CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE set. This patchset is the basis for much of the anonymous large folio work being done by Ryan, so it's received quite a lot of testing over the last few months. This patch (of 38): Determine if a value lies within a range more efficiently (subtraction + comparison vs two comparisons and an AND). It also has useful (under some circumstances) behaviour if the range exceeds the maximum value of the type. Convert all the conflicting definitions of in_range() within the kernel; some can use the generic definition while others need their own definition.

Currently, memcg uses rstat to maintain aggregated hierarchical stats. Counters are maintained for hierarchical stats at each memcg. Rstat tracks which cgroups have updates on which cpus to keep those counters fresh on the read-side. Non-hierarchical stats are currently not covered by rstat. Their per-cpu counters are summed up on every read, which is expensive. The original implementation did the same. At some point before rstat, non-hierarchical aggregated counters were introduced by commit a983b5eb ("mm: memcontrol: fix excessive complexity in memory.stat reporting"). However, those counters were updated on the performance critical write-side, which caused regressions, so they were later removed by commit 815744d7 ("mm: memcontrol: don't batch updates of local VM stats and events"). See [1] for more detailed history. Kernel versions in between a983b5eb & 815744d7 (a year and a half) enjoyed cheap reads of non-hierarchical stats, specifically on cgroup v1. When moving to more recent kernels, a performance regression for reading non-hierarchical stats is observed. Now that we have rstat, we know exactly which percpu counters have updates for each stat. We can maintain non-hierarchical counters again, making reads much more efficient, without affecting the performance critical write-side. Hence, add non-hierarchical (i.e local) counters for the stats, and extend rstat flushing to keep those up-to-date. A caveat is that we now need a stats flush before reading local/non-hierarchical stats through {memcg/lruvec}_page_state_local() or memcg_events_local(), where we previously only needed a flush to read hierarchical stats. Most contexts reading non-hierarchical stats are already doing a flush, add a flush to the only missing context in count_shadow_nodes(). With this patch, reading memory.stat from 1000 memcgs is 3x faster on a machine with 256 cpus on cgroup v1: # for i in $(seq 1000); do mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/cg$i; done # time cat /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/cg*/memory.stat > /dev/null real 0m0.125s user 0m0.005s sys 0m0.120s After: real 0m0.032s user 0m0.005s sys 0m0.027s To make sure there are no regressions on cgroup v2, I ran an artificial reclaim/refault stress test [2] that creates (NR_CPUS * 2) cgroups, assigns them limits, runs a worker process in each cgroup that allocates tmpfs memory equal to quadruple the limit (to invoke reclaim continuously), and then reads back the entire file (to invoke refaults). All workers are run in parallel, and zram is used as a swapping backend. Both reclaim and refault have conditional stats flushing. I ran this on a machine with 112 cpus, once on mm-unstable, and once on mm-unstable with this patch reverted. (1) A few runs without this patch: # time ./stress_reclaim_refault.sh real 0m9.949s user 0m0.496s sys 14m44.974s # time ./stress_reclaim_refault.sh real 0m10.049s user 0m0.486s sys 14m55.791s # time ./stress_reclaim_refault.sh real 0m9.984s user 0m0.481s sys 14m53.841s (2) A few runs with this patch: # time ./stress_reclaim_refault.sh real 0m9.885s user 0m0.486s sys 14m48.753s # time ./stress_reclaim_refault.sh real 0m9.903s user 0m0.495s sys 14m48.339s # time ./stress_reclaim_refault.sh real 0m9.861s user 0m0.507s sys 14m49.317s No regressions are observed with this patch. There is actually a very slight improvement. If I have to guess, maybe it's because we avoid the percpu loop in count_shadow_nodes() when calling lruvec_page_state_local(), but I could not prove this using perf, it's probably in the noise.

When page fault is handled under per-VMA lock protection, all swap page faults are retried with mmap_lock because folio_lock_or_retry has to drop and reacquire mmap_lock if folio could not be immediately locked. Follow the same pattern as mmap_lock to drop per-VMA lock when waiting for folio and retrying once folio is available. With this obstacle removed, enable do_swap_page to operate under per-VMA lock protection. Drivers implementing ops->migrate_to_ram might still rely on mmap_lock, therefore we have to fall back to mmap_lock in that particular case. Note that the only time do_swap_page calls synchronous swap_readpage is when SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO is set, which is only set for QUEUE_FLAG_SYNCHRONOUS devices: brd, zram and nvdimms (both btt and pmem). Therefore we don't sleep in this path, and there's no need to drop the mmap or per-VMA lock. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20230630211957.1341547-6-surenb@google.comSigned-off-by:

handle_mm_fault returning VM_FAULT_RETRY or VM_FAULT_COMPLETED means mmap_lock has been released. However with per-VMA locks behavior is different and the caller should still release it. To make the rules consistent for the caller, drop the per-VMA lock when returning VM_FAULT_RETRY or VM_FAULT_COMPLETED. Currently the only path returning VM_FAULT_RETRY under per-VMA locks is do_swap_page and no path returns VM_FAULT_COMPLETED for now.

Patch series "Per-VMA lock support for swap and userfaults", v7. When per-VMA locks were introduced in [1] several types of page faults would still fall back to mmap_lock to keep the patchset simple. Among them are swap and userfault pages. The main reason for skipping those cases was the fact that mmap_lock could be dropped while handling these faults and that required additional logic to be implemented. Implement the mechanism to allow per-VMA locks to be dropped for these cases. First, change handle_mm_fault to drop per-VMA locks when returning VM_FAULT_RETRY or VM_FAULT_COMPLETED to be consistent with the way mmap_lock is handled. Then change folio_lock_or_retry to accept vm_fault and return vm_fault_t which simplifies later patches. Finally allow swap and uffd page faults to be handled under per-VMA locks by dropping per-VMA and retrying, the same way it's done under mmap_lock. Naturally, once VMA lock is dropped that VMA should be assumed unstable and can't be used. This patch (of 6): Commit [1] introduced IO polling support duding swapin to reduce swap read latency for block devices that can be polled. However later commit [2] removed polling support. Therefore it seems safe to remove do_poll parameter in read_swap_cache_async and always call swap_readpage with synchronous=false waiting for IO completion in folio_lock_or_retry.

Jann Horn demonstrated how userfaultfd ioctl UFFDIO_COPY into a private shmem mapping can add valid PTEs to page table collapse_pte_mapped_thp() thought it had emptied: page lock on the huge page is enough to protect against WP faults (which find the PTE has been cleared), but not enough to protect against userfaultfd. "BUG: Bad rss-counter state" followed. retract_page_tables() protects against this by checking !vma->anon_vma; but we know that MADV_COLLAPSE needs to be able to work on private shmem mappings, even those with an anon_vma prepared for another part of the mapping; and we know that MADV_COLLAPSE needs to work on shared shmem mappings which are userfaultfd_armed(). Whether it needs to work on private shmem mappings which are userfaultfd_armed(), I'm not so sure: but assume that it does. Just for this case, take the pmd_lock() two steps earlier: not because it gives any protection against this case itself, but because ptlock nests inside it, and it's the dropping of ptlock which let the bug in. In other cases, continue to minimize the pmd_lock() hold time.

The cachestat kselftest runs a test on a normal file, which is created temporarily in the current directory. Among the tests it runs there is a call to fsync(), which is expected to clean all dirty pages used by the file. However the tmpfs filesystem implements fsync() as noop_fsync(), so the call will not even attempt to clean anything when this test file happens to live on a tmpfs instance. This happens in an initramfs, or when the current directory is in /dev/shm or sometimes /tmp. To avoid this test failing wrongly, use statfs() to check which filesystem the test file lives on. If that is "tmpfs", we skip the fsync() test. Since the fsync test is only one part of the "normal file" test, we now execute this twice, skipping the fsync part on the first call. This way only the second test, including the fsync part, would be skipped. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20230821160534.3414911-3-andre.przywara@arm.comSigned-off-by:

Patch series "selftests: cachestat: fix run on older kernels", v2. I ran all kernel selftests on some test machine, and stumbled upon cachestat failing (among others). These patches fix the run on older kernels and when the current directory is on a tmpfs instance. This patch (of 2): As cachestat is a new syscall, it won't be available on older kernels, for instance those running on a development machine. At the moment the test reports all tests as "not ok" in this case. Test for the cachestat syscall availability first, before doing further tests, and bail out early with a TAP SKIP comment. This also uses the opportunity to add the proper TAP headers, and add one check for proper error handling (illegal file descriptor).

The current implementation of append may cause duplicate data and/or incorrect ranges to be returned to a reader during an update. Although this has not been reported or seen, disable the append write operation while the tree is in rcu mode out of an abundance of caution. During the analysis of the mas_next_slot() the following was artificially created by separating the writer and reader code: Writer: reader: mas_wr_append set end pivot updates end metata Detects write to last slot last slot write is to start of slot store current contents in slot overwrite old end pivot mas_next_slot(): read end metadata read old end pivot return with incorrect range store new value Alternatively: Writer: reader: mas_wr_append set end pivot updates end metata Detects write to last slot last lost write to end of slot store value mas_next_slot(): read end metadata read old end pivot read new end pivot return with incorrect range set old end pivot There may be other accesses that are not safe since we are now updating both metadata and pointers, so disabling append if there could be rcu readers is the safest action.

Commit 98b211d6 ("madvise: convert madvise_free_pte_range() to use a folio") replaced the page_mapcount() with folio_mapcount() to check whether the folio is shared by other mapping. It's not correct for large folios. folio_mapcount() returns the total mapcount of large folio which is not suitable to detect whether the folio is shared. Use folio_estimated_sharers() which returns a estimated number of shares. That means it's not 100% correct. It should be OK for madvise case here. User-visible effects is that the THP is skipped when user call madvise. But the correct behavior is THP should be split and processed then. NOTE: this change is a temporary fix to reduce the user-visible effects before the long term fix from David is ready.

madvise:madvise_cold_or_pageout_pte_range(): don't use mapcount() against large folio for sharing check Patch series "don't use mapcount() to check large folio sharing", v2. In madvise_cold_or_pageout_pte_range() and madvise_free_pte_range(), folio_mapcount() is used to check whether the folio is shared. But it's not correct as folio_mapcount() returns total mapcount of large folio. Use folio_estimated_sharers() here as the estimated number is enough. This patchset will fix the cases: User space application call madvise() with MADV_FREE, MADV_COLD and MADV_PAGEOUT for specific address range. There are THP mapped to the range. Without the patchset, the THP is skipped. With the patch, the THP will be split and handled accordingly. David reported the cow self test skip some cases because of MADV_PAGEOUT skip THP: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/9e92e42d-488f-47db-ac9d-75b24cd0d037@intel.com/T/#mbf0f2ec7fbe45da47526de1d7036183981691e81 and I confirmed this patchset make it work again. This patch (of 3): Commit 07e8c82b ("madvise: convert madvise_cold_or_pageout_pte_range() to use folios") replaced the page_mapcount() with folio_mapcount() to check whether the folio is shared by other mapping.

Because THP_SWAP uses page->private for each page, we must not use the space which overlaps that field for anything which would conflict with that. We avoid the conflict on 32-bit systems by disallowing THP_SWAP on 32-bit. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20230816151201.3655946-13-willy@infradead.orgSigned-off-by:

This function is misleading; people think it means "Is this a THP", when all it actually does is check whether this is a large folio. Remove it; the one remaining user should have been checking to see whether the folio is PMD sized or not. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20230816151201.3655946-12-willy@infradead.orgSigned-off-by:

Store the folio order in the low byte of the flags word in the first tail page. This frees up the word that was being used to store the order and dtor bytes previously. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20230816151201.3655946-11-willy@infradead.orgSigned-off-by:

Move PG_writeback into bottom byte so that it can use PG_waiters in a later patch. Move PG_head into bottom byte as well to match with where 'order' is moving next. PG_active and PG_workingset move into the second byte to make room for them. By putting PG_head in bit 6, we ensure that it is cleared by assigning the folio order to the bottom byte of the first tail page (since the order cannot be larger than 63).

We can use a bit in page[1].flags to indicate that this folio belongs to hugetlb instead of using a value in page[1].dtors. That lets folio_test_hugetlb() become an inline function like it should be. We can also get rid of NULL_COMPOUND_DTOR. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20230816151201.3655946-8-willy@infradead.orgSigned-off-by:
