- SLUB: delayed freezing of CPU partial slabs (Chengming Zhou)
Freezing is an operation involving double_cmpxchg() that makes a slab
exclusive for a particular CPU. Chengming noticed that we use it also
in situations where we are not yet installing the slab as the CPU
slab, because freezing also indicates that the slab is not on the
shared list. This results in redundant freeze/unfreeze operation and
can be avoided by marking separately the shared list presence by
reusing the PG_workingset flag.

mm/thp: add CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE_NEVER option
Currently enabling THP support (CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE) requires enabling either CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE_ALWAYS or CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE_MADVISE, which both cause khugepaged starting by default at kernel bootup. Add the third choice CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE_NEVER, in line with the existing kernel command line setting transparent_hugepage=never, to disable THP by default (in particular, to prevent starting khugepaged by default) but still allow enabling it at runtime via sysfs. Rationale: khugepaged has its own non-negligible memory cost even if it is not used by any applications, since it bumps up vm.min_free_kbytes to its own required minimum in set_recommended_min_free_kbytes(). For example, on a machine with 4GB RAM, with 3 mm zones and pageblock_order == MAX_ORDER, starting khugepaged causes vm.min_free_kbytes increase from 8MB to 132MB. So if we use THP on machines with e.g. >=8GB of memory for better performance, but avoid using it on lower-memory machines to avoid its memory overhead, then for the same reason we also want to avoid even starting khugepaged on those <8GB machines. So with CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE_NEVER we can use the same kernel image on both >=8GB and <8GB machines, with THP support enabled but khugepaged not started by default. The userspace can then decide to enable THP via sysfs if needed, based on the total amount of memory. This could also be achieved with the existing transparent_hugepage=never setting in the kernel command line instead. But it seems cleaner to avoid tweaking the command line for such a basic setting. P.S. I see that CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE_NEVER was already proposed in the past [1] but without an explanation of the purpose.

zswap: shrink zswap pool based on memory pressure
Currently, we only shrink the zswap pool when the user-defined limit is hit. This means that if we set the limit too high, cold data that are unlikely to be used again will reside in the pool, wasting precious memory. It is hard to predict how much zswap space will be needed ahead of time, as this depends on the workload (specifically, on factors such as memory access patterns and compressibility of the memory pages). This patch implements a memcg- and NUMA-aware shrinker for zswap, that is initiated when there is memory pressure. The shrinker does not have any parameter that must be tuned by the user, and can be opted in or out on a per-memcg basis. Furthermore, to make it more robust for many workloads and prevent overshrinking (i.e evicting warm pages that might be refaulted into memory), we build in the following heuristics: * Estimate the number of warm pages residing in zswap, and attempt to protect this region of the zswap LRU. * Scale the number of freeable objects by an estimate of the memory saving factor. The better zswap compresses the data, the fewer pages we will evict to swap (as we will otherwise incur IO for relatively small memory saving). * During reclaim, if the shrinker encounters a page that is also being brought into memory, the shrinker will cautiously terminate its shrinking action, as this is a sign that it is touching the warmer region of the zswap LRU. As a proof of concept, we ran the following synthetic benchmark: build the linux kernel in a memory-limited cgroup, and allocate some cold data in tmpfs to see if the shrinker could write them out and improved the overall performance. Depending on the amount of cold data generated, we observe from 14% to 35% reduction in kernel CPU time used in the kernel builds.

iommu: Change kconfig around IOMMU_SVA
Linus suggested that the kconfig here is confusing: https://lore.kernel.org/all/CAHk-=wgUiAtiszwseM1p2fCJ+sC4XWQ+YN4TanFhUgvUqjr9Xw@mail.gmail.com/ Let's break it into three kconfigs controlling distinct things: - CONFIG_IOMMU_MM_DATA controls if the mm_struct has the additional fields for the IOMMU. Currently only PASID, but later patches store a struct iommu_mm_data * - CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_CPU_PASID controls if the arch needs the scheduling bit for keeping track of the ENQCMD instruction. x86 will select this if IOMMU_SVA is enabled - IOMMU_SVA controls if the IOMMU core compiles in the SVA support code for iommu driver use and the IOMMU exported API This way ARM will not enable CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_CPU_PASID Signed-off-by: Jason Gunthorpe <jgg@nvidia.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231027000525.1278806-2-tina.zhang@intel.com Signed-off-by: Joerg Roedel <jroedel@suse.de> |

mm/slab: remove CONFIG_SLAB from all Kconfig and Makefile
Remove CONFIG_SLAB, CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB, CONFIG_SLAB_DEPRECATED and everything in Kconfig files and mm/Makefile that depends on those. Since SLUB is the only remaining allocator, remove the allocator choice, make CONFIG_SLUB a "def_bool y" for now and remove all explicit dependencies on SLUB or SLAB as it's now always enabled. Make every option's verbose name and description refer to "the slab allocator" without refering to the specific implementation. Do not rename the CONFIG_ option names yet. Everything under #ifdef CONFIG_SLAB, and mm/slab.c is now dead code, all code under #ifdef CONFIG_SLUB is now always compiled.

mm: restrict the pcp batch scale factor to avoid too long latency
In page allocator, PCP (Per-CPU Pageset) is refilled and drained in
batches to increase page allocation throughput, reduce page
allocation/freeing latency per page, and reduce zone lock contention. But
too large batch size will cause too long maximal allocation/freeing
latency, which may punish arbitrary users. So the default batch size is
chosen carefully (in zone_batchsize(), the value is 63 for zone > 1GB) to
avoid that.

zswap: change zswap's default allocator to zsmalloc
Out of zswap's 3 allocators, zsmalloc is the clear superior in terms of memory utilization, both in theory and as observed in practice, with its high storage density and low internal fragmentation. zsmalloc is also more actively developed and maintained, since it is the allocator of choice for zswap for many users, as well as the only allocator for zram. A historical objection to the selection of zsmalloc as the default allocator for zswap is its lack of writeback capability. However, this has changed, with the zsmalloc writeback patchset, and the subsequent zswap LRU refactor. With this, there is not a lot of good reasons to keep zbud, an otherwise inferior allocator, as the default instead of zswap. This patch changes the default allocator to zsmalloc. The only exception is on settings without MMU, in which case zbud will remain as the default.

mm/memory_hotplug: simplify ARCH_MHP_MEMMAP_ON_MEMORY_ENABLE kconfig
Patch series "Add support for memmap on memory feature on ppc64", v8. This patch series update memmap on memory feature to fall back to memmap allocation outside the memory block if the alignment rules are not met. This makes the feature more useful on architectures like ppc64 where alignment rules are different with 64K page size. This patch (of 6): Instead of adding menu entry with all supported architectures, add mm/Kconfig variable and select the same from supported architectures. No functional change in this patch.

mm/vmemmap optimization: split hugetlb and devdax vmemmap optimization
Arm disabled hugetlb vmemmap optimization [1] because hugetlb vmemmap
optimization includes an update of both the permissions (writeable to
read-only) and the output address (pfn) of the vmemmap ptes. That is not
supported without unmapping of pte(marking it invalid) by some
architectures.
With DAX vmemmap optimization we don't require such pte updates and
architectures can enable DAX vmemmap optimization while having hugetlb
vmemmap optimization disabled. Hence split DAX optimization support into
a different config.
s390, loongarch and riscv don't have devdax support. So the DAX config is
not enabled for them. With this change, arm64 should be able to select
DAX optimization

mm: make MEMFD_CREATE into a selectable config option
The memfd_create() syscall, enabled by CONFIG_MEMFD_CREATE, is useful on its own even when not required by CONFIG_TMPFS or CONFIG_HUGETLBFS. Split it into its own proper bool option that can be enabled by users. Move that option into mm/ where the code itself also lies. Also add "select" statements to CONFIG_TMPFS and CONFIG_HUGETLBFS so they automatically enable CONFIG_MEMFD_CREATE as before.

Randomized slab caches for kmalloc()
When exploiting memory vulnerabilities, "heap spraying" is a common technique targeting those related to dynamic memory allocation (i.e. the "heap"), and it plays an important role in a successful exploitation. Basically, it is to overwrite the memory area of vulnerable object by triggering allocation in other subsystems or modules and therefore getting a reference to the targeted memory location. It's usable on various types of vulnerablity including use after free (UAF), heap out- of-bound write and etc. There are (at least) two reasons why the heap can be sprayed: 1) generic slab caches are shared among different subsystems and modules, and 2) dedicated slab caches could be merged with the generic ones. Currently these two factors cannot be prevented at a low cost: the first one is a widely used memory allocation mechanism, and shutting down slab merging completely via `slub_nomerge` would be overkill. To efficiently prevent heap spraying, we propose the following approach: to create multiple copies of generic slab caches that will never be merged, and random one of them will be used at allocation. The random selection is based on the address of code that calls `kmalloc()`, which means it is static at runtime (rather than dynamically determined at each time of allocation, which could be bypassed by repeatedly spraying in brute force). In other words, the randomness of cache selection will be with respect to the code address rather than time, i.e. allocations in different code paths would most likely pick different caches, although kmalloc() at each place would use the same cache copy whenever it is executed. In this way, the vulnerable object and memory allocated in other subsystems and modules will (most probably) be on different slab caches, which prevents the object from being sprayed. Meanwhile, the static random selection is further enhanced with a per-boot random seed, which prevents the attacker from finding a usable kmalloc that happens to pick the same cache with the vulnerable subsystem/module by analyzing the open source code. In other words, with the per-boot seed, the random selection is static during each time the system starts and runs, but not across different system startups. The overhead of performance has been tested on a 40-core x86 server by comparing the results of `perf bench all` between the kernels with and without this patch based on the latest linux-next kernel, which shows minor difference.

Merge branch 'expand-stack'
This modifies our user mode stack expansion code to always take the mmap_lock for writing before modifying the VM layout. It's actually something we always technically should have done, but because we didn't strictly need it, we were being lazy ("opportunistic" sounds so much better, doesn't it?) about things, and had this hack in place where we would extend the stack vma in-place without doing the proper locking. And it worked fine. We just needed to change vm_start (or, in the case of grow-up stacks, vm_end) and together with some special ad-hoc locking using the anon_vma lock and the mm->page_table_lock, it all was fairly straightforward. That is, it was all fine until Ruihan Li pointed out that now that the vma layout uses the maple tree code, we *really* don't just change vm_start and vm_end any more, and the locking really is broken. Oops. It's not actually all _that_ horrible to fix this once and for all, and do proper locking, but it's a bit painful. We have basically three different cases of stack expansion, and they all work just a bit differently: - the common and obvious case is the page fault handling. It's actually fairly simple and straightforward, except for the fact that we have something like 24 different versions of it, and you end up in a maze of twisty little passages, all alike. - the simplest case is the execve() code that creates a new stack. There are no real locking concerns because it's all in a private new VM that hasn't been exposed to anybody, but lockdep still can end up unhappy if you get it wrong. - and finally, we have GUP and page pinning, which shouldn't really be expanding the stack in the first place, but in addition to execve() we also use it for ptrace(). And debuggers do want to possibly access memory under the stack pointer and thus need to be able to expand the stack as a special case. None of these cases are exactly complicated, but the page fault case in particular is just repeated slightly differently many many times. And ia64 in particular has a fairly complicated situation where you can have both a regular grow-down stack _and_ a special grow-up stack for the register backing store. So to make this slightly more manageable, the bulk of this series is to first create a helper function for the most common page fault case, and convert all the straightforward architectures to it. Thus the new 'lock_mm_and_find_vma()' helper function, which ends up being used by x86, arm, powerpc, mips, riscv, alpha, arc, csky, hexagon, loongarch, nios2, sh, sparc32, and xtensa. So we not only convert more than half the architectures, we now have more shared code and avoid some of those twisty little passages. And largely due to this common helper function, the full diffstat of this series ends up deleting more lines than it adds. That still leaves eight architectures (ia64, m68k, microblaze, openrisc, parisc, s390, sparc64 and um) that end up doing 'expand_stack()' manually because they are doing something slightly different from the normal pattern. Along with the couple of special cases in execve() and GUP. So there's a couple of patches that first create 'locked' helper versions of the stack expansion functions, so that there's a obvious path forward in the conversion. The execve() case is then actually pretty simple, and is a nice cleanup from our old "grow-up stackls are special, because at execve time even they grow down". The #ifdef CONFIG_STACK_GROWSUP in that code just goes away, because it's just more straightforward to write out the stack expansion there manually, instead od having get_user_pages_remote() do it for us in some situations but not others and have to worry about locking rules for GUP. And the final step is then to just convert the remaining odd cases to a new world order where 'expand_stack()' is called with the mmap_lock held for reading, but where it might drop it and upgrade it to a write, only to return with it held for reading (in the success case) or with it completely dropped (in the failure case). In the process, we remove all the stack expansion from GUP (where dropping the lock wouldn't be ok without special rules anyway), and add it in manually to __access_remote_vm() for ptrace(). Thanks to Adrian Glaubitz and Frank Scheiner who tested the ia64 cases. Everything else here felt pretty straightforward, but the ia64 rules for stack expansion are really quite odd and very different from everything else. Also thanks to Vegard Nossum who caught me getting one of those odd conditions entirely the wrong way around. Anyway, I think I want to actually move all the stack expansion code to a whole new file of its own, rather than have it split up between mm/mmap.c and mm/memory.c, but since this will have to be backported to the initial maple tree vma introduction anyway, I tried to keep the patches _fairly_ minimal.

mm: introduce new 'lock_mm_and_find_vma()' page fault helper
.. and make x86 use it. This basically extracts the existing x86 "find and expand faulting vma" code, but extends it to also take the mmap lock for writing in case we actually do need to expand the vma. We've historically short-circuited that case, and have some rather ugly special logic to serialize the stack segment expansion (since we only hold the mmap lock for reading) that doesn't match the normal VM locking. That slight violation of locking worked well, right up until it didn't: the maple tree code really does want proper locking even for simple extension of an existing vma. So extract the code for "look up the vma of the fault" from x86, fix it up to do the necessary write locking, and make it available as a helper function for other architectures that can use the common helper. Note: I say "common helper", but it really only handles the normal stack-grows-down case. Which is all architectures except for PA-RISC and IA64. So some rare architectures can't use the helper, but if they care they'll just need to open-code this logic. It's also worth pointing out that this code really would like to have an optimistic "mmap_upgrade_trylock()" to make it quicker to go from a read-lock (for the common case) to taking the write lock (for having to extend the vma) in the normal single-threaded situation where there is no other locking activity. But that _is_ all the very uncommon special case, so while it would be nice to have such an operation, it probably doesn't matter in reality. I did put in the skeleton code for such a possible future expansion, even if it only acts as pseudo-documentation for what we're doing. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> |

mm/slab: rename CONFIG_SLAB to CONFIG_SLAB_DEPRECATED
As discussed at LSF/MM [1] [2] and with no objections raised there, deprecate the SLAB allocator. Rename the user-visible option so that users with CONFIG_SLAB=y get a new prompt with explanation during make oldconfig, while make olddefconfig will just switch to SLUB. In all defconfigs with CONFIG_SLAB=y remove the line so those also switch to SLUB. Regressions due to the switch should be reported to linux-mm and slab maintainers.

mm: introduce CONFIG_PER_VMA_LOCK
Patch series "Per-VMA locks", v4. LWN article describing the feature: https://lwn.net/Articles/906852/ Per-vma locks idea that was discussed during SPF [1] discussion at LSF/MM last year [2], which concluded with suggestion that “a reader/writer semaphore could be put into the VMA itself; that would have the effect of using the VMA as a sort of range lock. There would still be contention at the VMA level, but it would be an improvement.” This patchset implements this suggested approach. When handling page faults we lookup the VMA that contains the faulting page under RCU protection and try to acquire its lock. If that fails we fall back to using mmap_lock, similar to how SPF handled this situation. One notable way the implementation deviates from the proposal is the way VMAs are read-locked. During some of mm updates, multiple VMAs need to be locked until the end of the update (e.g. vma_merge, split_vma, etc). Tracking all the locked VMAs, avoiding recursive locks, figuring out when it's safe to unlock previously locked VMAs would make the code more complex. So, instead of the usual lock/unlock pattern, the proposed solution marks a VMA as locked and provides an efficient way to: 1. Identify locked VMAs. 2. Unlock all locked VMAs in bulk. We also postpone unlocking the locked VMAs until the end of the update, when we do mmap_write_unlock. Potentially this keeps a VMA locked for longer than is absolutely necessary but it results in a big reduction of code complexity. Read-locking a VMA is done using two sequence numbers - one in the vm_area_struct and one in the mm_struct. VMA is considered read-locked when these sequence numbers are equal. To read-lock a VMA we set the sequence number in vm_area_struct to be equal to the sequence number in mm_struct. To unlock all VMAs we increment mm_struct's seq number. This allows for an efficient way to track locked VMAs and to drop the locks on all VMAs at the end of the update. The patchset implements per-VMA locking only for anonymous pages which are not in swap and avoids userfaultfs as their implementation is more complex. Additional support for file-back page faults, swapped and user pages can be added incrementally. Performance benchmarks show similar although slightly smaller benefits as with SPF patchset (~75% of SPF benefits). Still, with lower complexity this approach might be more desirable. Since RFC was posted in September 2022, two separate Google teams outside of Android evaluated the patchset and confirmed positive results. Here are the known usecases when per-VMA locks show benefits: Android: Apps with high number of threads (~100) launch times improve by up to 20%. Each thread mmaps several areas upon startup (Stack and Thread-local storage (TLS), thread signal stack, indirect ref table), which requires taking mmap_lock in write mode. Page faults take mmap_lock in read mode. During app launch, both thread creation and page faults establishing the active workinget are happening in parallel and that causes lock contention between mm writers and readers even if updates and page faults are happening in different VMAs. Per-vma locks prevent this contention by providing more granular lock. Google Fibers: We have several dynamically sized thread pools that spawn new threads under increased load and reduce their number when idling. For example, Google's in-process scheduling/threading framework, UMCG/Fibers, is backed by such a thread pool. When idling, only a small number of idle worker threads are available; when a spike of incoming requests arrive, each request is handled in its own "fiber", which is a work item posted onto a UMCG worker thread; quite often these spikes lead to a number of new threads spawning. Each new thread needs to allocate and register an RSEQ section on its TLS, then register itself with the kernel as a UMCG worker thread, and only after that it can be considered by the in-process UMCG/Fiber scheduler as available to do useful work. In short, during an incoming workload spike new threads have to be spawned, and they perform several syscalls (RSEQ registration, UMCG worker registration, memory allocations) before they can actually start doing useful work. Removing any bottlenecks on this thread startup path will greatly improve our services' latencies when faced with request/workload spikes. At high scale, mmap_lock contention during thread creation and stack page faults leads to user-visible multi-second serving latencies in a similar pattern to Android app startup. Per-VMA locking patchset has been run successfully in limited experiments with user-facing production workloads. In these experiments, we observed that the peak thread creation rate was high enough that thread creation is no longer a bottleneck. TCP zerocopy receive: From the point of view of TCP zerocopy receive, the per-vma lock patch is massively beneficial. In today's implementation, a process with N threads where N - 1 are performing zerocopy receive and 1 thread is performing madvise() with the write lock taken (e.g. needs to change vm_flags) will result in all N -1 receive threads blocking until the madvise is done. Conversely, on a busy process receiving a lot of data, an madvise operation that does need to take the mmap lock in write mode will need to wait for all of the receives to be done - a lose:lose proposition. Per-VMA locking _removes_ by definition this source of contention entirely. There are other benefits for receive as well, chiefly a reduction in cacheline bouncing across receiving threads for locking/unlocking the single mmap lock. On an RPC style synthetic workload with 4KB RPCs: 1a) The find+lock+unlock VMA path in the base case, without the per-vma lock patchset, is about 0.7% of cycles as measured by perf. 1b) mmap_read_lock + mmap_read_unlock in the base case is about 0.5% cycles overall - most of this is within the TCP read hotpath (a small fraction is 'other' usage in the system). 2a) The find+lock+unlock VMA path, with the per-vma patchset and a trivial patch written to take advantage of it in TCP, is about 0.4% of cycles (down from 0.7% above) 2b) mmap_read_lock + mmap_read_unlock in the per-vma patchset is < 0.1% cycles and is out of the TCP read hotpath entirely (down from 0.5% before, the remaining usage is the 'other' usage in the system). So, in addition to entirely removing an onerous source of contention, it also reduces the CPU cycles of TCP receive zerocopy by about 0.5%+ (compared to overall cycles in perf) for the 'small' RPC scenario. In https://lkml.kernel.org/r/87fsaqouyd.fsf_-_@stealth, Punit demonstrated throughput improvements of as much as 188% from this patchset. This patch (of 25): This configuration variable will be used to build the support for VMA locking during page fault handling. This is enabled on supported architectures with SMP and MMU set. The architecture support is needed since the page fault handler is called from the architecture's page faulting code which needs modifications to handle faults under VMA lock.

mm,hugetlb: use folio fields in second tail page
Patch series "mm,huge,rmap: unify and speed up compound mapcounts".
This patch (of 3):
We want to declare one more int in the first tail of a compound page: that
first tail page being valuable property, since every compound page has a
first tail, but perhaps no more than that.
No problem on 64-bit: there is already space for it. No problem with
32-bit THPs: 5.18 commit

mm: always compile in pte markers
Patch series "mm: Use pte marker for swapin errors". This series uses the pte marker to replace the swapin error swap entry, then we save one more swap entry slot for swap devices. A new pte marker bit is defined. This patch (of 2): The PTE markers code is tiny and now it's enabled for most of the distributions. It's fine to keep it as-is, but to make a broader use of it (e.g. replacing read error swap entry) it needs to be there always otherwise we need special code path to take care of !PTE_MARKER case. It'll be easier just make pte marker always exist. Use this chance to extend its usage to anonymous too by simply touching up some of the old comments, because it'll be used for anonymous pages in the follow up patches.

mm, slob: rename CONFIG_SLOB to CONFIG_SLOB_DEPRECATED
As explained in [1], we would like to remove SLOB if possible. - There are no known users that need its somewhat lower memory footprint so much that they cannot handle SLUB (after some modifications by the previous patches) instead. - It is an extra maintenance burden, and a number of features are incompatible with it. - It blocks the API improvement of allowing kfree() on objects allocated via kmem_cache_alloc(). As the first step, rename the CONFIG_SLOB option in the slab allocator configuration choice to CONFIG_SLOB_DEPRECATED. Add CONFIG_SLOB depending on CONFIG_SLOB_DEPRECATED as an internal option to avoid code churn. This will cause existing .config files and defconfigs with CONFIG_SLOB=y to silently switch to the default (and recommended replacement) SLUB, while still allowing SLOB to be configured by anyone that notices and needs it. But those should contact the slab maintainers and linux-mm@kvack.org as explained in the updated help. With no valid objections, the plan is to update the existing defconfigs to SLUB and remove SLOB in a few cycles. To make SLUB more suitable replacement for SLOB, a CONFIG_SLUB_TINY option was introduced to limit SLUB's memory overhead. There is a number of defconfigs specifying CONFIG_SLOB=y. As part of this patch, update them to select CONFIG_SLUB and CONFIG_SLUB_TINY.

mm, slub: add CONFIG_SLUB_TINY
For tiny systems that have used SLOB until now, SLUB might be impractical due to its higher memory usage. To help with that, introduce an option CONFIG_SLUB_TINY that modifies SLUB to use less memory. This is done by sacrificing scalability, security and debugging features, therefore not recommended for any system with more than 16MB RAM. This commit introduces the option and uses it to set other related options in a way that reduces memory usage.
