      kbuild: fix -Wimplicit-function-declaration in license_is_gpl_compatible · 50c69721
      Sam James authored 
      Add missing <linux/string.h> include for strcmp.

Clang 16 makes -Wimplicit-function-declaration an error by default. 
Unfortunately, out of tree modules may use this in configure scripts,
which means failure might cause silent miscompilation or misconfiguration.

For more information, see LWN.net [0] or LLVM's Discourse [1], gentoo-dev@ [2],
or the (new) c-std-porting mailing list [3].

      mm/damon/sysfs-schemes: skip stats update if the scheme directory is removed · 8468b486
      SeongJae Park authored 
      A DAMON sysfs interface user can start DAMON with a scheme, remove the
sysfs directory for the scheme, and then ask update of the scheme's stats.
Because the schemes stats update logic isn't aware of the situation, it
results in an invalid memory access.  Fix the bug by checking if the
scheme sysfs directory exists.

      mm/memory: return vm_fault_t result from migrate_to_ram() callback · 4a955bed
      Alistair Popple authored 
      The migrate_to_ram() callback should always succeed, but in rare cases can
fail usually returning VM_FAULT_SIGBUS.  Commit 16ce101d
("mm/memory.c: fix race when faulting a device private page") incorrectly
stopped passing the return code up the stack.  Fix this by setting the ret
variable, restoring the previous behaviour on migrate_to_ram() failure.

      mm: correctly charge compressed memory to its memcg · cd08d80e
      Li Liguang authored 
      Kswapd will reclaim memory when memory pressure is high, the annonymous
memory will be compressed and stored in the zpool if zswap is enabled. 
The memcg_kmem_bypass() in get_obj_cgroup_from_page() will bypass the
kernel thread and cause the compressed memory not be charged to its memory
cgroup.

Remove the memcg_kmem_bypass() call and properly charge compressed memory
to its corresponding memory cgroup.

      ipc/shm: call underlying open/close vm_ops · b6305049
      Mike Kravetz authored 
      Shared memory segments can be created that are backed by hugetlb pages. 
When this happens, the vmas associated with any mappings (shmat) are
marked VM_HUGETLB, yet the vm_ops for such mappings are provided by
ipc/shm (shm_vm_ops).  There is a mechanism to call the underlying hugetlb
vm_ops, and this is done for most operations.  However, it is not done for
open and close.

This was not an issue until the introduction of the hugetlb vma_lock. 
This lock structure is pointed to by vm_private_data and the open/close
vm_ops help maintain this structure.  The special hugetlb routine called
at fork took care of structure updates at fork time.  However,
vma_splitting is not properly handled for ipc shared memory mappings
backed by hugetlb pages.  This can result in a "kernel NULL pointer
dereference" BUG or use after free as two vmas point to the same lock
structure.

Update the shm open and close routines to always call the underlying open
and close routines.

The khugepaged code would pick up the node with the most hit as the preferred
node, and also tries to do some balance if several nodes have the same
hit record.  Basically it does conceptually:
    * If the target_node <= last_target_node, then iterate from
last_target_node + 1 to MAX_NUMNODES (1024 on default config)
    * If the max_value == node_load[nid], then target_node = nid

But there is a corner case, paritucularly for MADV_COLLAPSE, that the
non-existing node may be returned as preferred node.

Assuming the system has 2 nodes, the target_node is 0 and the
last_target_node is 1, if MADV_COLLAPSE path is hit, the max_value may
be 0, then it may return 2 for target_node, but it is actually not
existing (offline), so the warn is triggered.

The node balance was introduced by commit 9f1b868a ("mm: thp:
khugepaged: add policy for finding target node") to satisfy
"numactl --interleave=all".  But interleaving is a mere hint rather than
something that has hard requirements.

So use nodemask to record the nodes which have the same hit record, the
hugepage allocation could fallback to those nodes.  And remove
__GFP_THISNODE since it does disallow fallback.  And if the nodemask
just has one node set, it means there is one single node has the most
hit record, the nodemask approach actually behaves like __GFP_THISNODE.

      mm: vmscan: fix extreme overreclaim and swap floods · f53af428
      Johannes Weiner authored 
      During proactive reclaim, we sometimes observe severe overreclaim, with
several thousand times more pages reclaimed than requested.

This trace was obtained from shrink_lruvec() during such an instance:

    prio:0 anon_cost:1141521 file_cost:7767
    nr_reclaimed:4387406 nr_to_reclaim:1047 (or_factor:4190)
    nr=[7161123 345 578 1111]

While he reclaimer requested 4M, vmscan reclaimed close to 16G, most of it
by swapping.  These requests take over a minute, during which the write()
to memory.reclaim is unkillably stuck inside the kernel.

Digging into the source, this is caused by the proportional reclaim
bailout logic.  This code tries to resolve a fundamental conflict: to
reclaim roughly what was requested, while also aging all LRUs fairly and
in accordance to their size, swappiness, refault rates etc.  The way it
attempts fairness is that once the reclaim goal has been reached, it stops
scanning the LRUs with the smaller remaining scan targets, and adjusts the
remainder of the bigger LRUs according to how much of the smaller LRUs was
scanned.  It then finishes scanning that remainder regardless of the
reclaim goal.

This works fine if priority levels are low and the LRU lists are
comparable in size.  However, in this instance, the cgroup that is
targeted by proactive reclaim has almost no files left - they've already
been squeezed out by proactive reclaim earlier - and the remaining anon
pages are hot.  Anon rotations cause the priority level to drop to 0,
which results in reclaim targeting all of anon (a lot) and all of file
(almost nothing).  By the time reclaim decides to bail, it has scanned
most or all of the file target, and therefor must also scan most or all of
the enormous anon target.  This target is thousands of times larger than
the reclaim goal, thus causing the overreclaim.

The bailout code hasn't changed in years, why is this failing now?  The
most likely explanations are two other recent changes in anon reclaim:

1. Before the series starting with commit 5df74196 ("mm: fix LRU
   balancing effect of new transparent huge pages"), the VM was
   overall relatively reluctant to swap at all, even if swap was
   configured. This means the LRU balancing code didn't come into play
   as often as it does now, and mostly in high pressure situations
   where pronounced swap activity wouldn't be as surprising.

2. For historic reasons, shrink_lruvec() loops on the scan targets of
   all LRU lists except the active anon one, meaning it would bail if
   the only remaining pages to scan were active anon - even if there
   were a lot of them.

   Before the series starting with commit ccc5dc67 ("mm/vmscan:
   make active/inactive ratio as 1:1 for anon lru"), most anon pages
   would live on the active LRU; the inactive one would contain only a
   handful of preselected reclaim candidates. After the series, anon
   gets aged similarly to file, and the inactive list is the default
   for new anon pages as well, making it often the much bigger list.

   As a result, the VM is now more likely to actually finish large
   anon targets than before.

Change the code such that only one SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX-sized nudge toward the
larger LRU lists is made before bailing out on a met reclaim goal.

This fixes the extreme overreclaim problem.

Fairness is more subtle and harder to evaluate.  No obvious misbehavior
was observed on the test workload, in any case.  Conceptually, fairness
should primarily be a cumulative effect from regular, lower priority
scans.  Once the VM is in trouble and needs to escalate scan targets to
make forward progress, fairness needs to take a backseat.  This is also
acknowledged by the myriad exceptions in get_scan_count().  This patch
makes fairness decrease gradually, as it keeps fairness work static over
increasing priority levels with growing scan targets.  This should make
more sense - although we may have to re-visit the exact values.

 "Several fixes for CXL region creation crashes, leaks and failures.

  This is mainly fallout from the original implementation of dynamic CXL
  region creation (instantiate new physical memory pools) that arrived
  in v6.0-rc1.

  Given the theme of "failures in the presence of pass-through decoders"
  this also includes new regression test infrastructure for that case.

  Summary:

   - Fix region creation crash with pass-through decoders

   - Fix region creation crash when no decoder allocation fails

   - Fix region creation crash when scanning regions to enforce the
     increasing physical address order constraint that CXL mandates

   - Fix a memory leak for cxl_pmem_region objects, track 1:N instead of
     1:1 memory-device-to-region associations.

   - Fix a memory leak for cxl_region objects when regions with active
     targets are deleted

   - Fix assignment of NUMA nodes to CXL regions by CFMWS (CXL Window)
     emulated proximity domains.

   - Fix region creation failure for switch attached devices downstream
     of a single-port host-bridge

   - Fix false positive memory leak of cxl_region objects by recycling
     recently used region ids rather than freeing them

   - Add regression test infrastructure for a pass-through decoder
     configuration

   - Fix some mailbox payload handling corner cases"
