When there are huge number of DAMON regions that specific scheme actions

tried regions information using the 'before_damos_apply()' callback for
one aggregation interval and populate scheme region directories with the

For efficient and simple query-like DAMON monitoring results readings and
deep level investigations of DAMOS, DAMON kernel API
(include/linux/damon.h) users can use 'before_damos_apply' DAMON callback.
However, DAMON sysfs interface users don't have such option.
Add a directory, namely 'tried_regions', under each scheme directory to
use it as the interface for the purpose. Note that this commit is
implementing only the directory but the data filling.
After the data filling change is made, users will be able to signal DAMON
to fill the directory with the regions that corresponding scheme has tried
to be applied. By setting the access pattern of the scheme, users could
do the efficient query-like monitoring.

Patch series "efficiently expose damos action tried regions information".
DAMON users can retrieve the monitoring results via 'after_aggregation'
callbacks if the user is using the kernel API, or 'damon_aggregated'
tracepoint if the user is in the user space. Those are useful if full
monitoring results are necessary. However, if the user has interest in
only a snapshot of the results for some regions having specific access
pattern, the interfaces could be inefficient. For example, some users
only want to know which memory regions are not accessed for more than a
specific time at the moment.
Also, some DAMOS users would want to know exactly to what memory regions
the schemes' actions tried to be applied, for a debugging or a tuning. As
DAMOS has its internal mechanism for quota and regions prioritization, the
users would need to simulate DAMOS' mechanism against the monitoring
results. That's unnecessarily complex.
This patchset implements DAMON kernel API callbacks and sysfs directory
for efficient exposure of the information for the use cases. The new
callback will be called for each region when a DAMOS action is gonna tried
to be applied to it. The sysfs directory will be called 'tried_regions'
and placed under each scheme sysfs directory. Users can write a special
keyworkd, 'update_schemes_regions', to the 'state' file of a kdamond sysfs
directory. Then, DAMON sysfs interface will fill the directory with the
information of regions that corresponding scheme action was tried to be
applied for next one aggregation interval.
Patches Sequence
----------------
The first one (patch 1) implements the callback for the kernel space
users. Following two patches (patches 2 and 3) implements sysfs
directories for the information and its sub directories. Two patches
(patches 4 and 5) for implementing the special keywords for filling the
data to and cleaning up the directories follow. Patch 6 adds a selftest
for the new sysfs directory. Finally, two patches (patches 7 and 8)
document the new feature in the administrator guide and the ABI document.
This patch (of 8):
Getting DAMON monitoring results of only specific access pattern (e.g.,
getting address ranges of memory that not accessed at all for two minutes)
can be useful for efficient monitoring of the system. The information can
also be helpful for deep level investigation of DAMON-based operation
schemes.
For that, users need to record (in case of the user space users) or
iterate (in case of the kernel space users) full monitoring results and
filter it out for the specific access pattern. In case of the DAMOS
investigation, users will even need to simulate DAMOS' quota and
prioritization mechanisms. It's inefficient and complex.
Add a new DAMON callback that will be called before each scheme is applied
to each region. DAMON kernel API users will be able to do the query-like
monitoring results collection, or DAMOS investigation in an efficient and
simple way using it.
Commits for providing the capability to the user space users will follow.

Direct reclaim stats are useful for identifying a potential source for
application latency, as well as spotting issues with kswapd. However,
khugepaged currently distorts the picture: as a kernel thread it doesn't
impose allocation latencies on userspace, and it explicitly opts out of
kswapd reclaim. Its activity showing up in the direct reclaim stats is
misleading. Counting it as kswapd reclaim could also cause confusion when
trying to understand actual kswapd behavior.
Break out khugepaged from the direct reclaim counters into new
pgsteal_khugepaged, pgdemote_khugepaged, pgscan_khugepaged counters.

Patch series "Copy-on-write poison recovery", v3.
Part 1 deals with the process that triggered the copy on write fault with
a store to a shared read-only page. That process is send a SIGBUS with
the usual machine check decoration to specify the virtual address of the
lost page, together with the scope.
Part 2 sets up to asynchronously take the page with the uncorrected error
offline to prevent additional machine check faults. H/t to Miaohe Lin
<linmiaohe@huawei.com> and Shuai Xue <xueshuai@linux.alibaba.com> for
pointing me to the existing function to queue a call to memory_failure().
On x86 there is some duplicate reporting (because the error is also
signalled by the memory controller as well as by the core that triggered
the machine check). Console logs look like this:
This patch (of 2):
If the kernel is copying a page as the result of a copy-on-write
fault and runs into an uncorrectable error, Linux will crash because
it does not have recovery code for this case where poison is consumed
by the kernel.
It is easy to set up a test case. Just inject an error into a private
page, fork(2), and have the child process write to the page.
I wrapped that neatly into a test at:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/aegl/ras-tools.git
just enable ACPI error injection and run:
# ./einj_mem-uc -f copy-on-write
Add a new copy_user_highpage_mc() function that uses copy_mc_to_kernel()
on architectures where that is available (currently x86 and powerpc).
When an error is detected during the page copy, return VM_FAULT_HWPOISON
to caller of wp_page_copy(). This propagates up the call stack. Both x86
and powerpc have code in their fault handler to deal with this code by
sending a SIGBUS to the application.
Note that this patch avoids a system crash and signals the process that
triggered the copy-on-write action. It does not take any action for the
memory error that is still in the shared page. To handle that a call to
memory_failure() is needed. But this cannot be done from wp_page_copy()
because it holds mmap_lock(). Perhaps the architecture fault handlers
can deal with this loose end in a subsequent patch?
On Intel/x86 this loose end will often be handled automatically because
the memory controller provides an additional notification of the h/w
poison in memory, the handler for this will call memory_failure(). This
isn't a 100% solution. If there are multiple errors, not all may be
logged in this way.

The percpu_counter is used for scenarios where performance is more
important than the accuracy. For percpu_counter users, who want more
accurate information in their slowpath, percpu_counter_sum is provided
which traverses all the online CPUs to accumulate the data. The reason it
only needs to traverse online CPUs is because percpu_counter does
implement CPU offline callback which syncs the local data of the offlined
CPU.
However there is a small race window between the online CPUs traversal of
percpu_counter_sum and the CPU offline callback. The offline callback has
to traverse all the percpu_counters on the system to flush the CPU local
data which can be a lot. During that time, the CPU which is going offline
has already been published as offline to all the readers. So, as the
offline callback is running, percpu_counter_sum can be called for one
counter which has some state on the CPU going offline. Since
percpu_counter_sum only traverses online CPUs, it will skip that specific
CPU and the offline callback might not have flushed the state for that
specific percpu_counter on that offlined CPU.
Normally this is not an issue because percpu_counter users can deal with
some inaccuracy for small time window. However a new user i.e. mm_struct
on the cleanup path wants to check the exact state of the percpu_counter
through check_mm(). For such users, this patch introduces
percpu_counter_sum_all() which traverses all possible CPUs and it is used
in fork.c:check_mm() to avoid the potential race.
This issue is exposed by the later patch "mm: convert mm's rss stats into

Currently mm_struct maintains rss_stats which are updated on page fault
and the unmapping codepaths. For page fault codepath the updates are
cached per thread with the batch of TASK_RSS_EVENTS_THRESH which is 64.
The reason for caching is performance for multithreaded applications
otherwise the rss_stats updates may become hotspot for such applications.
However this optimization comes with the cost of error margin in the rss
stats. The rss_stats for applications with large number of threads can be
very skewed. At worst the error margin is (nr_threads * 64) and we have a
lot of applications with 100s of threads, so the error margin can be very
high. Internally we had to reduce TASK_RSS_EVENTS_THRESH to 32.
Recently we started seeing the unbounded errors for rss_stats for specific
applications which use TCP rx0cp. It seems like vm_insert_pages()
codepath does not sync rss_stats at all.
This patch converts the rss_stats into percpu_counter to convert the error
margin from (nr_threads * 64) to approximately (nr_cpus ^ 2). However
this conversion enable us to get the accurate stats for situations where
accuracy is more important than the cpu cost.
This patch does not make such tradeoffs - we can just use
percpu_counter_add_local() for the updates and percpu_counter_sum() (or
percpu_counter_sync() + percpu_counter_read) for the readers. At the
moment the readers are either procfs interface, oom_killer and memory
reclaim which I think are not performance critical and should be ok with
slow read. However I think we can make that change in a separate patch.

Writing a value to DAMON_RECLAIM's 'enabled' parameter turns on or off
DAMON in an ansychronous way. This means the parameter cannot be used to
read the current status of DAMON_RECLAIM. 'kdamond_pid' parameter should
be used instead for the purpose. The documentation is easy to be read as
it works in a synchronous way, so it is a little bit confusing. It also
makes the user space tooling dirty.
There's no real reason to have the asynchronous behavior, though. Simply
make the parameter works synchronously, rather than updating the document.

DAMON sysfs interface is implemented in a single file, sysfs.c, which has
about 2,800 lines of code. As the interface is hierarchical and some of
the code can be reused by different hierarchies, it would make more sense
to split out the implementation into common parts and different parts in
multiple files. As the beginning of the work, create files for common
code and move the global mutex for directories modifications protection
into the new file.

Patch series "mm/damon: cleanup and refactoring code", v2.
This patchset cleans up and refactors a range of DAMON code including the
core, DAMON sysfs interface, and DAMON modules, for better readability and
convenient future feature implementations.
In detail, this patchset splits unnecessarily long and complex functions
in core into smaller functions (patches 1-4). Then, it cleans up the
DAMON sysfs interface by using more type-safe code (patch 5) and removing
unnecessary function parameters (patch 6). Further, it refactor the code
by distributing the code into multiple files (patches 7-10). Last two
patches (patches 11 and 12) deduplicates and remove unnecessary header
inclusion in DAMON modules (reclaim and lru_sort).
This patch (of 12):
The DAMOS action applying function, 'damon_do_apply_schemes()', is quite
long and not so simple. Split out the already quota-charged region skip
code, which is not a small amount of simple code, into a new function with
some comments for better readability.

Patch series "Fix a bunch of allmodconfig errors", v2.
Since b339ec9c22 ("kbuild: Only default to -Werror if COMPILE_TEST")
WERROR now defaults to COMPILE_TEST meaning that it's enabled for
allmodconfig builds. This leads to some interesting build failures when
using Clang, each resolved in this set.
With this set applied, I am able to obtain a successful allmodconfig Arm
build.
This patch (of 2):
calculate_bandwidth() is presently broken on all !(X86_64 || SPARC64 ||
ARM64) architectures built with Clang (all released versions), whereby the
stack frame gets blown up to well over 5k. This would cause an immediate

bug report has been resolved:

Any codepath that zaps page table entries must invoke MMU notifiers to
ensure that secondary MMUs (like KVM) don't keep accessing pages which
aren't mapped anymore. Secondary MMUs don't hold their own references to
pages that are mirrored over, so failing to notify them can lead to page
use-after-free.
I'm marking this as addressing an issue introduced in commit f3f0e1d215
("khugepaged: add support of collapse for tmpfs/shmem pages"), but most of
the security impact of this only came in commit 27e1f82731 ("khugepaged:

for the removal of present PTEs, not just for the removal of empty page

Since commit 70cbc3cc78 ("mm: gup: fix the fast GUP race against THP
collapse"), the lockless_pages_from_mm() fastpath rechecks the pmd_t to
ensure that the page table was not removed by khugepaged in between.
However, lockless_pages_from_mm() still requires that the page table is
not concurrently freed. Fix it by sending IPIs (if the architecture uses
semi-RCU-style page table freeing) before freeing/reusing page tables.

pagetable walks on address ranges mapped by VMAs can be done under the
mmap lock, the lock of an anon_vma attached to the VMA, or the lock of the
VMA's address_space. Only one of these needs to be held, and it does not
need to be held in exclusive mode.
Under those circumstances, the rules for concurrent access to page table
entries are:
- Terminal page table entries (entries that don't point to another page
table) can be arbitrarily changed under the page table lock, with the
exception that they always need to be consistent for
hardware page table walks and lockless_pages_from_mm().
This includes that they can be changed into non-terminal entries.
- Non-terminal page table entries (which point to another page table)
can not be modified; readers are allowed to READ_ONCE() an entry, verify
that it is non-terminal, and then assume that its value will stay as-is.
Retracting a page table involves modifying a non-terminal entry, so
page-table-level locks are insufficient to protect against concurrent page
table traversal; it requires taking all the higher-level locks under which
it is possible to start a page walk in the relevant range in exclusive
mode.
The collapse_huge_page() path for anonymous THP already follows this rule,
but the shmem/file THP path was getting it wrong, making it possible for
concurrent rmap-based operations to cause corruption.
