      atomisp: avoid warning about unused function · 6929f71e
      Linus Torvalds authored
      The atomisp_mrfld_power() function isn't actually ever called, because
      the two call-sites have commented out the use because it breaks on some
      platforms.  That results in:
      
        drivers/staging/media/atomisp/pci/atomisp_v4l2.c:764:12: warning: ‘atomisp_mrfld_power’ defined but not used [-Wunused-function]
          764 | static int atomisp_mrfld_power(struct atomisp_device *isp, bool enable)
              |            ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
      
      during the build.
      
      Rather than commenting out the use entirely, just disable it
      semantically instead (using a "0 &&" construct), leaving the call in
      place from a syntax standpoint, and avoiding the warning.
      
      I really don't want my builds to have any warnings that can then hide
      real issues.

      Pull media updates from Mauro Carvalho Chehab:
      
       - Media documentation is now split into admin-guide, driver-api and
         userspace-api books (a longstanding request from Jon);
      
       - The media Kconfig was reorganized, in order to make easier to select
         drivers and their dependencies;
      
       - The testing drivers now has a separate directory;
      
       - added a new driver for Rockchip Video Decoder IP;
      
       - The atomisp staging driver was resurrected. It is meant to work with
         4 generations of cameras on Atom-based laptops, tablets and cell
         phones. So, it seems worth investing time to cleanup this driver and
         making it in good shape.
      
       - Added some V4L2 core ancillary routines to help with h264 codecs;
      
       - Added an ov2740 image sensor driver;
      
       - The si2157 gained support for Analog TV, which, in turn, added
         support for some cx231xx and cx23885 boards to also support analog
         standards;
      
       - Added some V4L2 controls (V4L2_CID_CAMERA_ORIENTATION and
         V4L2_CID_CAMERA_SENSOR_ROTATION) to help identifying where the camera
         is located at the device;
      
       - VIDIOC_ENUM_FMT was extended to support MC-centric devices;
      
       - Lots of drivers improvements and cleanups.

      mm: add DEBUG_WX support · 375d315c
      Zong Li authored
      Patch series "Extract DEBUG_WX to shared use".
      
      Some architectures support DEBUG_WX function, it's verbatim from each
      others, so extract to mm/Kconfig.debug for shared use.
      
      PPC and ARM ports don't support generic page dumper yet, so we only
      refine x86 and arm64 port in this patch series.
      
      For RISC-V port, the DEBUG_WX support depends on other patches which
      be merged already:
        - RISC-V page table dumper
        - Support strict kernel memory permissions for security
      
      This patch (of 4):
      
      Some architectures support DEBUG_WX function, it's verbatim from each
      others.  Extract to mm/Kconfig.debug for shared use.

      drivers/base/memory.c: cache memory blocks in xarray to accelerate lookup · 4fb6eabf
      Scott Cheloha authored
      Searching for a particular memory block by id is an O(n) operation because
      each memory block's underlying device is kept in an unsorted linked list
      on the subsystem bus.
      
      We can cut the lookup cost to O(log n) if we cache each memory block
      in an xarray.  This time complexity improvement is significant on
      systems with many memory blocks.  For example:
      
      1. A 128GB POWER9 VM with 256MB memblocks has 512 blocks.  With this
         change  memory_dev_init() completes ~12ms faster and walk_memory_blocks()
         completes ~12ms faster.
      
      Before:
      [    0.005042] memory_dev_init: adding memory blocks
      [    0.021591] memory_dev_init: added memory blocks

      [    0.009415] memory_dev_init: added memory blocks
      [    0.010519] walk_memory_blocks: walking memory blocks
      [    0.014135] walk_memory_blocks: walked memory blocks 0-511
      
      2. A 256GB POWER9 LPAR with 256MB memblocks has 1024 blocks.  With
         this change memory_dev_init() completes ~88ms faster and
         walk_memory_blocks() completes ~87ms faster.
      
      Before:
      [    0.252246] memory_dev_init: adding memory blocks
      [    0.395469] memory_dev_init: added memory blocks

      [    0.433028] walk_memory_blocks: walked memory blocks 0-511
      [    0.433094] walk_memory_blocks: walking memory blocks
      [    0.500244] walk_memory_blocks: walked memory blocks 131072-131583
      
      After:
      [    0.245063] memory_dev_init: adding memory blocks

      [    0.316988] walk_memory_blocks: walked memory blocks 131072-131583
      
      3. A 32TB POWER9 LPAR with 256MB memblocks has 131072 blocks.  With
         this change we complete memory_dev_init() ~37 minutes faster and
         walk_memory_blocks() at least ~30 minutes faster.  The exact timing
         for walk_memory_blocks() is  missing, though I observed that the
         soft lockups in walk_memory_blocks() disappeared with the change,
         suggesting that lower bound.

      (the walk_memory_blocks traces disappear)
      
      There should be no significant negative impact for machines with few
      memory blocks.  A sparse xarray has a small footprint and an O(log n)
      lookup is negligibly slower than an O(n) lookup for only the smallest
      number of memory blocks.
      
      1. A 16GB x86 machine with 128MB memblocks has 132 blocks.  With this
         change memory_dev_init() completes ~300us faster and walk_memory_blocks()
         completes no faster or slower.  The improvement is pretty close to noise.

      mm/thp: rename pmd_mknotpresent() as pmd_mkinvalid() · 86ec2da0
      Anshuman Khandual authored
      pmd_present() is expected to test positive after pmdp_mknotpresent() as
      the PMD entry still points to a valid huge page in memory.
      pmdp_mknotpresent() implies that given PMD entry is just invalidated from
      MMU perspective while still holding on to pmd_page() referred valid huge
      page thus also clearing pmd_present() test.  This creates the following
      situation which is counter intuitive.
      
      [pmd_present(pmd_mknotpresent(pmd)) = true]
      
      This renames pmd_mknotpresent() as pmd_mkinvalid() reflecting the helper's
      functionality more accurately while changing the above mentioned situation
      as follows.  This does not create any functional change.
      
      [pmd_present(pmd_mkinvalid(pmd)) = true]

      powerpc/mm: drop platform defined pmd_mknotpresent() · 124cb3a6
      Anshuman Khandual authored
      Patch series "mm/thp: Rename pmd_mknotpresent() as pmd_mknotvalid()", v2.
      
      This series renames pmd_mknotpresent() as pmd_mknotvalid().  Before that
      it drops an existing pmd_mknotpresent() definition from powerpc platform
      which was never required as it defines it's pmdp_invalidate() through
      subscribing __HAVE_ARCH_PMDP_INVALIDATE.  This does not create any
      functional change.
      
      This rename was suggested by Catalin during a previous discussion while we
      were trying to change the THP helpers on arm64 platform for migration.
      
      https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11019637/
      
      This patch (of 2):
      
      Platform needs to define pmd_mknotpresent() for generic pmdp_invalidate()
      only when __HAVE_ARCH_PMDP_INVALIDATE is not subscribed.  Otherwise
      platform specific pmd_mknotpresent() is not required.  Hence just drop it.

      mm: thp: don't need to drain lru cache when splitting and mlocking THP · 67e4eb07
      Yang Shi authored
      Since commit 8f182270 ("mm/swap.c: flush lru pvecs on compound page
      arrival") THP would not stay in pagevec anymore.  So the optimization made
      by commit d9654322 ("thp: increase split_huge_page() success rate")
      doesn't make sense anymore, which tries to unpin munlocked THPs from
      pagevec by draining pagevec.
      
      Draining lru cache before isolating THP in mlock path is also unnecessary.
      b676b293 ("mm, thp: fix mapped pages avoiding unevictable list on
      mlock") added it and 9a73f61b ("thp, mlock: do not mlock PTE-mapped
      file huge pages") accidentally carried it over after the above
      optimization went in.

      hugetlbfs: get unmapped area below TASK_UNMAPPED_BASE for hugetlbfs · 88590253
      Shijie Hu authored
      In a 32-bit program, running on arm64 architecture.  When the address
      space below mmap base is completely exhausted, shmat() for huge pages will
      return ENOMEM, but shmat() for normal pages can still success on no-legacy
      mode.  This seems not fair.
      
      For normal pages, the calling trace of get_unmapped_area() is:
      
      	=> mm->get_unmapped_area()
      	if on legacy mode,
      		=> arch_get_unmapped_area()
      			=> vm_unmapped_area()
      	if on no-legacy mode,
      		=> arch_get_unmapped_area_topdown()
      			=> vm_unmapped_area()
      
      For huge pages, the calling trace of get_unmapped_area() is:
      
      	=> file->f_op->get_unmapped_area()
      		=> hugetlb_get_unmapped_area()
      			=> vm_unmapped_area()
      
      To solve this issue, we only need to make hugetlb_get_unmapped_area() take
      the same way as mm->get_unmapped_area().  Add *bottomup() and *topdown()
      for hugetlbfs, and check current mm->get_unmapped_area() to decide which
      one to use.  If mm->get_unmapped_area is equal to
      arch_get_unmapped_area_topdown(), hugetlb_get_unmapped_area() calls
      topdown routine, otherwise calls bottomup routine.

      sparc32: register memory occupied by kernel as memblock.memory · 4360dfa9
      Mike Rapoport authored
      sparc32 never registered the memory occupied by the kernel image with
      memblock_add() and it only reserved this memory with meblock_reserve().
      
      With openbios as system firmware, the memory occupied by the kernel is
      reserved in openbios and removed from mem.available.  The prom setup code
      in the kernel uses mem.available to set up the memory banks and
      essentially there is a hole for the memory occupied by the kernel image.
      
      Later in bootmem_init() this memory is memblock_reserve()d.
      
      Up until recently, memmap initialization would call __init_single_page()
      for the pages in that hole, the free_low_memory_core_early() would mark
      them as reserved and everything would be Ok.
      
      After the change in memmap initialization introduced by the commit "mm:
      memmap_init: iterate over memblock regions rather that check each PFN",
      the hole is skipped and the page structs for it are not initialized.  And
      when they are passed from memblock to page allocator as reserved, the
      latter gets confused.
      
      Simply registering the memory occupied by the kernel with memblock_add()
      resolves this issue.

      Michal Hocko authored
      ba841078 ("mm/mempolicy: Allow lookup_node() to handle fatal signal")
      has added a special casing for 0 return value because that was a possible
      gup return value when interrupted by fatal signal.  This has been fixed by
      ae46d2aa ("mm/gup: Let __get_user_pages_locked() return -EINTR for
      fatal signal") in the mean time so ba841078 can be reverted.
      
      This patch however doesn't go all the way to revert it because the check
      for 0 is wrong and confusing here.  Firstly it is inherently unsafe to
      access the page when get_user_pages_locked returns 0 (aka no page
      returned).
      
      Fortunatelly this will not happen because get_user_pages_locked will not
      return 0 when nr_pages > 0 unless FOLL_NOWAIT is specified which is not
      the case here.  Document this potential error code in gup code while we
      are at it.

      mm: vmscan: limit the range of LRU type balancing · d483a5dd
      Johannes Weiner authored
      When LRU cost only shows up on one list, we abruptly stop scanning that
      list altogether.  That's an extreme reaction: by the time the other list
      starts thrashing and the pendulum swings back, we may have no recent age
      information on the first list anymore, and we could have significant
      latencies until the scanner has caught up.
      
      Soften this change in the feedback system by ensuring that no list
      receives less than a third of overall pressure, and only distribute the
      other 66% according to LRU cost.  This ensures that we maintain a minimum
      rate of aging on the entire workingset while it's being pressured, while
      still allowing a generous rate of convergence when the relative sizes of
      the lists need to adjust.

      mm: vmscan: reclaim writepage is IO cost · 96f8bf4f
      Johannes Weiner authored
      The VM tries to balance reclaim pressure between anon and file so as to
      reduce the amount of IO incurred due to the memory shortage.  It already
      counts refaults and swapins, but in addition it should also count
      writepage calls during reclaim.
      
      For swap, this is obvious: it's IO that wouldn't have occurred if the
      anonymous memory hadn't been under memory pressure.  From a relative
      balancing point of view this makes sense as well: even if anon is cold and
      reclaimable, a cache that isn't thrashing may have equally cold pages that
      don't require IO to reclaim.
      
      For file writeback, it's trickier: some of the reclaim writepage IO would
      have likely occurred anyway due to dirty expiration.  But not all of it -
      premature writeback reduces batching and generates additional writes.
      Since the flushers are already woken up by the time the VM starts writing
      cache pages one by one, let's assume that we'e likely causing writes that
      wouldn't have happened without memory pressure.  In addition, the per-page
      cost of IO would have probably been much cheaper if written in larger
      batches from the flusher thread rather than the single-page-writes from
      kswapd.
      
      For our purposes - getting the trend right to accelerate convergence on a
      stable state that doesn't require paging at all - this is sufficiently
      accurate.  If we later wanted to optimize for sustained thrashing, we can
      still refine the measurements.
      
      Count all writepage calls from kswapd as IO cost toward the LRU that the
      page belongs to.
      
      Why do this dynamically?  Don't we know in advance that anon pages require
      IO to reclaim, and so could build in a static bias?
      
      First, scanning is not the same as reclaiming.  If all the anon pages are
      referenced, we may not swap for a while just because we're scanning the
      anon list.  During this time, however, it's important that we age
      anonymous memory and the page cache at the same rate so that their
      hot-cold gradients are comparable.  Everything else being equal, we still
      want to reclaim the coldest memory overall.
      
      Second, we keep copies in swap unless the page changes.  If there is
      swap-backed data that's mostly read (tmpfs file) and has been swapped out
      before, we can reclaim it without incurring additional IO.

      mm: vmscan: determine anon/file pressure balance at the reclaim root · 7cf111bc
      Johannes Weiner authored
      We split the LRU lists into anon and file, and we rebalance the scan
      pressure between them when one of them begins thrashing: if the file cache
      experiences workingset refaults, we increase the pressure on anonymous
      pages; if the workload is stalled on swapins, we increase the pressure on
      the file cache instead.
      
      With cgroups and their nested LRU lists, we currently don't do this
      correctly.  While recursive cgroup reclaim establishes a relative LRU
      order among the pages of all involved cgroups, LRU pressure balancing is
      done on an individual cgroup LRU level.  As a result, when one cgroup is
      thrashing on the filesystem cache while a sibling may have cold anonymous
      pages, pressure doesn't get equalized between them.
      
      This patch moves LRU balancing decision to the root of reclaim - the same
      level where the LRU order is established.
      
      It does this by tracking LRU cost recursively, so that every level of the
      cgroup tree knows the aggregate LRU cost of all memory within its domain.
      When the page scanner calculates the scan balance for any given individual
      cgroup's LRU list, it uses the values from the ancestor cgroup that
      initiated the reclaim cycle.
      
      If one sibling is then thrashing on the cache, it will tip the pressure
      balance inside its ancestors, and the next hierarchical reclaim iteration
      will go more after the anon pages in the tree.

      mm: balance LRU lists based on relative thrashing · 314b57fb
      Johannes Weiner authored
      Since the LRUs were split into anon and file lists, the VM has been
      balancing between page cache and anonymous pages based on per-list ratios
      of scanned vs.  rotated pages.  In most cases that tips page reclaim
      towards the list that is easier to reclaim and has the fewest actively
      used pages, but there are a few problems with it:
      
      1. Refaults and LRU rotations are weighted the same way, even though
         one costs IO and the other costs a bit of CPU.
      
      2. The less we scan an LRU list based on already observed rotations,
         the more we increase the sampling interval for new references, and
         rotations become even more likely on that list. This can enter a
         death spiral in which we stop looking at one list completely until
         the other one is all but annihilated by page reclaim.
      
      Since commit a528910e ("mm: thrash detection-based file cache sizing")
      we have refault detection for the page cache.  Along with swapin events,
      they are good indicators of when the file or anon list, respectively, is
      too small for its workingset and needs to grow.
      
      For example, if the page cache is thrashing, the cache pages need more
      time in memory, while there may be colder pages on the anonymous list.
      Likewise, if swapped pages are faulting back in, it indicates that we
      reclaim anonymous pages too aggressively and should back off.
      
      Replace LRU rotations with refaults and swapins as the basis for relative
      reclaim cost of the two LRUs.  This will have the VM target list balances
      that incur the least amount of IO on aggregate.

      mm: only count actual rotations as LRU reclaim cost · 264e90cc
      Johannes Weiner authored
      When shrinking the active file list we rotate referenced pages only when
      they're in an executable mapping.  The others get deactivated.  When it
      comes to balancing scan pressure, though, we count all referenced pages as
      rotated, even the deactivated ones.  Yet they do not carry the same cost
      to the system: the deactivated page *might* refault later on, but the
      deactivation is tangible progress toward freeing pages; rotations on the
      other hand cost time and effort without getting any closer to freeing
      memory.
      
      Don't treat both events as equal.  The following patch will hook up LRU
      balancing to cache and anon refaults, which are a much more concrete cost
      signal for reclaiming one list over the other.  Thus, remove the maybe-IO
      cost bias from page references, and only note the CPU cost for actual
      rotations that prevent the pages from getting reclaimed.

      mm: deactivations shouldn't bias the LRU balance · fbbb602e
      Johannes Weiner authored
      Operations like MADV_FREE, FADV_DONTNEED etc.  currently move any affected
      active pages to the inactive list to accelerate their reclaim (good) but
      also steer page reclaim toward that LRU type, or away from the other
      (bad).
      
      The reason why this is undesirable is that such operations are not part of
      the regular page aging cycle, and rather a fluke that doesn't say much
      about the remaining pages on that list; they might all be in heavy use,
      and once the chunk of easy victims has been purged, the VM continues to
      apply elevated pressure on those remaining hot pages.  The other LRU,
      meanwhile, might have easily reclaimable pages, and there was never a need
      to steer away from it in the first place.
      
      As the previous patch outlined, we should focus on recording actually
      observed cost to steer the balance rather than speculating about the
      potential value of one LRU list over the other.  In that spirit, leave
      explicitely deactivated pages to the LRU algorithm to pick up, and let
      rotations decide which list is the easiest to reclaim.

      mm: base LRU balancing on an explicit cost model · 1431d4d1
      Johannes Weiner authored
      Currently, scan pressure between the anon and file LRU lists is balanced
      based on a mixture of reclaim efficiency and a somewhat vague notion of
      "value" of having certain pages in memory over others.  That concept of
      value is problematic, because it has caused us to count any event that
      remotely makes one LRU list more or less preferrable for reclaim, even
      when these events are not directly comparable and impose very different
      costs on the system.  One example is referenced file pages that we still
      deactivate and referenced anonymous pages that we actually rotate back to
      the head of the list.
      
      There is also conceptual overlap with the LRU algorithm itself.  By
      rotating recently used pages instead of reclaiming them, the algorithm
      already biases the applied scan pressure based on page value.  Thus, when
      rebalancing scan pressure due to rotations, we should think of reclaim
      cost, and leave assessing the page value to the LRU algorithm.
      
      Lastly, considering both value-increasing as well as value-decreasing
      events can sometimes cause the same type of event to be counted twice,
      i.e.  how rotating a page increases the LRU value, while reclaiming it
      succesfully decreases the value.  In itself this will balance out fine,
      but it quietly skews the impact of events that are only recorded once.
      
      The abstract metric of "value", the murky relationship with the LRU
      algorithm, and accounting both negative and positive events make the
      current pressure balancing model hard to reason about and modify.
      
      This patch switches to a balancing model of accounting the concrete,
      actually observed cost of reclaiming one LRU over another.  For now, that
      cost includes pages that are scanned but rotated back to the list head.
      Subsequent patches will add consideration for IO caused by refaulting of
      recently evicted pages.
      
      Replace struct zone_reclaim_stat with two cost counters in the lruvec, and
      make everything that affects cost go through a new lru_note_cost()
      function.

      mm: vmscan: drop unnecessary div0 avoidance rounding in get_scan_count() · a4fe1631
      Johannes Weiner authored
      When we calculate the relative scan pressure between the anon and file LRU
      lists, we have to assume that reclaim_stat can contain zeroes.  To avoid
      div0 crashes, we add 1 to all denominators like so:
      
              anon_prio = swappiness;
              file_prio = 200 - anon_prio;
      
      	[...]
      
              /*
               * The amount of pressure on anon vs file pages is inversely
               * proportional to the fraction of recently scanned pages on
               * each list that were recently referenced and in active use.
               */
              ap = anon_prio * (reclaim_stat->recent_scanned[0] + 1);
              ap /= reclaim_stat->recent_rotated[0] + 1;
      
              fp = file_prio * (reclaim_stat->recent_scanned[1] + 1);
              fp /= reclaim_stat->recent_rotated[1] + 1;
              spin_unlock_irq(&pgdat->lru_lock);
      
              fraction[0] = ap;
              fraction[1] = fp;
              denominator = ap + fp + 1;
      
      While reclaim_stat can contain 0, it's not actually possible for ap + fp
      to be 0.  One of anon_prio or file_prio could be zero, but they must still
      add up to 200.  And the reclaim_stat fraction, due to the +1 in there, is
      always at least 1.  So if one of the two numerators is 0, the other one
      can't be.  ap + fp is always at least 1.  Drop the + 1.

      mm: remove use-once cache bias from LRU balancing · 96824687
      Johannes Weiner authored
      When the splitlru patches divided page cache and swap-backed pages into
      separate LRU lists, the pressure balance between the lists was biased to
      account for the fact that streaming IO can cause memory pressure with a
      flood of pages that are used only once.  New page cache additions would
      tip the balance toward the file LRU, and repeat access would neutralize
      that bias again.  This ensured that page reclaim would always go for
      used-once cache first.
      
      Since e9868505 ("mm,vmscan: only evict file pages when we have
      plenty"), page reclaim generally skips over swap-backed memory entirely as
      long as there is used-once cache present, and will apply the LRU balancing
      when only repeatedly accessed cache pages are left - at which point the
      previous use-once bias will have been neutralized.  This makes the
      use-once cache balancing bias unnecessary.

      mm: workingset: let cache workingset challenge anon · 34e58cac
      Johannes Weiner authored
      We activate cache refaults with reuse distances in pages smaller than the
      size of the total cache.  This allows new pages with competitive access
      frequencies to establish themselves, as well as challenge and potentially
      displace pages on the active list that have gone cold.
      
      However, that assumes that active cache can only replace other active
      cache in a competition for the hottest memory.  This is not a great
      default assumption.  The page cache might be thrashing while there are
      enough completely cold and unused anonymous pages sitting around that we'd
      only have to write to swap once to stop all IO from the cache.
      
      Activate cache refaults when their reuse distance in pages is smaller than
      the total userspace workingset, including anonymous pages.
      
      Reclaim can still decide how to balance pressure among the two LRUs
      depending on the IO situation.  Rotational drives will prefer avoiding
      random IO from swap and go harder after cache.  But fundamentally, hot
      cache should be able to compete with anon pages for a place in RAM.

      With the advent of fast random IO devices (SSDs, PMEM) and in-memory swap
      devices such as zswap, it's possible for swap to be much faster than

      caches.
      
      Allow setting swappiness - which defines the rough relative IO cost of
      cache misses between page cache and swap-backed pages - to reflect such
      situations by making the swap-preferred range configurable.
