617a814f14 ALong with the usual shower of singleton patches, notable patch series in
this pull request are:
 
 "Align kvrealloc() with krealloc()" from Danilo Krummrich.  Adds
 consistency to the APIs and behaviour of these two core allocation
 functions.  This also simplifies/enables Rustification.
 
 "Some cleanups for shmem" from Baolin Wang.  No functional changes - mode
 code reuse, better function naming, logic simplifications.
 
 "mm: some small page fault cleanups" from Josef Bacik.  No functional
 changes - code cleanups only.
 
 "Various memory tiering fixes" from Zi Yan.  A small fix and a little
 cleanup.
 
 "mm/swap: remove boilerplate" from Yu Zhao.  Code cleanups and
 simplifications and .text shrinkage.
 
 "Kernel stack usage histogram" from Pasha Tatashin and Shakeel Butt.  This
 is a feature, it adds new feilds to /proc/vmstat such as
 
     $ grep kstack /proc/vmstat
     kstack_1k 3
     kstack_2k 188
     kstack_4k 11391
     kstack_8k 243
     kstack_16k 0
 
 which tells us that 11391 processes used 4k of stack while none at all
 used 16k.  Useful for some system tuning things, but partivularly useful
 for "the dynamic kernel stack project".
 
 "kmemleak: support for percpu memory leak detect" from Pavel Tikhomirov.
 Teaches kmemleak to detect leaksage of percpu memory.
 
 "mm: memcg: page counters optimizations" from Roman Gushchin.  "3
 independent small optimizations of page counters".
 
 "mm: split PTE/PMD PT table Kconfig cleanups+clarifications" from David
 Hildenbrand.  Improves PTE/PMD splitlock detection, makes powerpc/8xx work
 correctly by design rather than by accident.
 
 "mm: remove arch_make_page_accessible()" from David Hildenbrand.  Some
 folio conversions which make arch_make_page_accessible() unneeded.
 
 "mm, memcg: cg2 memory{.swap,}.peak write handlers" fro David Finkel.
 Cleans up and fixes our handling of the resetting of the cgroup/process
 peak-memory-use detector.
 
 "Make core VMA operations internal and testable" from Lorenzo Stoakes.
 Rationalizaion and encapsulation of the VMA manipulation APIs.  With a
 view to better enable testing of the VMA functions, even from a
 userspace-only harness.
 
 "mm: zswap: fixes for global shrinker" from Takero Funaki.  Fix issues in
 the zswap global shrinker, resulting in improved performance.
 
 "mm: print the promo watermark in zoneinfo" from Kaiyang Zhao.  Fill in
 some missing info in /proc/zoneinfo.
 
 "mm: replace follow_page() by folio_walk" from David Hildenbrand.  Code
 cleanups and rationalizations (conversion to folio_walk()) resulting in
 the removal of follow_page().
 
 "improving dynamic zswap shrinker protection scheme" from Nhat Pham.  Some
 tuning to improve zswap's dynamic shrinker.  Significant reductions in
 swapin and improvements in performance are shown.
 
 "mm: Fix several issues with unaccepted memory" from Kirill Shutemov.
 Improvements to the new unaccepted memory feature,
 
 "mm/mprotect: Fix dax puds" from Peter Xu.  Implements mprotect on DAX
 PUDs.  This was missing, although nobody seems to have notied yet.
 
 "Introduce a store type enum for the Maple tree" from Sidhartha Kumar.
 Cleanups and modest performance improvements for the maple tree library
 code.
 
 "memcg: further decouple v1 code from v2" from Shakeel Butt.  Move more
 cgroup v1 remnants away from the v2 memcg code.
 
 "memcg: initiate deprecation of v1 features" from Shakeel Butt.  Adds
 various warnings telling users that memcg v1 features are deprecated.
 
 "mm: swap: mTHP swap allocator base on swap cluster order" from Chris Li.
 Greatly improves the success rate of the mTHP swap allocation.
 
 "mm: introduce numa_memblks" from Mike Rapoport.  Moves various disparate
 per-arch implementations of numa_memblk code into generic code.
 
 "mm: batch free swaps for zap_pte_range()" from Barry Song.  Greatly
 improves the performance of munmap() of swap-filled ptes.
 
 "support large folio swap-out and swap-in for shmem" from Baolin Wang.
 With this series we no longer split shmem large folios into simgle-page
 folios when swapping out shmem.
 
 "mm/hugetlb: alloc/free gigantic folios" from Yu Zhao.  Nice performance
 improvements and code reductions for gigantic folios.
 
 "support shmem mTHP collapse" from Baolin Wang.  Adds support for
 khugepaged's collapsing of shmem mTHP folios.
 
 "mm: Optimize mseal checks" from Pedro Falcato.  Fixes an mprotect()
 performance regression due to the addition of mseal().
 
 "Increase the number of bits available in page_type" from Matthew Wilcox.
 Increases the number of bits available in page_type!
 
 "Simplify the page flags a little" from Matthew Wilcox.  Many legacy page
 flags are now folio flags, so the page-based flags and their
 accessors/mutators can be removed.

fbc90c042c - 875fa64577da ("mm/hugetlb_vmemmap: fix race with speculative PFN
walkers") is known to cause a performance regression
   (https://lore.kernel.org/all/3acefad9-96e5-4681-8014-827d6be71c7a@linux.ibm.com/T/#mfa809800a7862fb5bdf834c6f71a3a5113eb83ff).
   Yu has a fix which I'll send along later via the hotfixes branch.
 
 - In the series "mm: Avoid possible overflows in dirty throttling" Jan
   Kara addresses a couple of issues in the writeback throttling code.
   These fixes are also targetted at -stable kernels.
 
 - Ryusuke Konishi's series "nilfs2: fix potential issues related to
   reserved inodes" does that.  This should actually be in the
   mm-nonmm-stable tree, along with the many other nilfs2 patches.  My bad.
 
 - More folio conversions from Kefeng Wang in the series "mm: convert to
   folio_alloc_mpol()"
 
 - Kemeng Shi has sent some cleanups to the writeback code in the series
   "Add helper functions to remove repeated code and improve readability of
   cgroup writeback"
 
 - Kairui Song has made the swap code a little smaller and a little
   faster in the series "mm/swap: clean up and optimize swap cache index".
 
 - In the series "mm/memory: cleanly support zeropage in

 - The core TLB handling code gets some cleanups and possible slight
   optimizations in Bang Li's series "Add update_mmu_tlb_range() to
   simplify code".
 
 - Jane Chu has improved the handling of our
   fake-an-unrecoverable-memory-error testing feature MADV_HWPOISON in the
   series "Enhance soft hwpoison handling and injection".
 
 - Jeff Johnson has sent a billion patches everywhere to add
   MODULE_DESCRIPTION() to everything.  Some landed in this pull.
 
 - In the series "mm: cleanup MIGRATE_SYNC_NO_COPY mode", Kefeng Wang has
   simplified migration's use of hardware-offload memory copying.
 
 - Yosry Ahmed performs more folio API conversions in his series "mm:
   zswap: trivial folio conversions".
 
 - In the series "large folios swap-in: handle refault cases first",
   Chuanhua Han inches us forward in the handling of large pages in the
   swap code.  This is a cleanup and optimization, working toward the end
   objective of full support of large folio swapin/out.
 
 - In the series "mm,swap: cleanup VMA based swap readahead window
   calculation", Huang Ying has contributed some cleanups and a possible
   fixlet to his VMA based swap readahead code.
 
 - In the series "add mTHP support for anonymous shmem" Baolin Wang has
   taught anonymous shmem mappings to use multisize THP.  By default this
   is a no-op - users must opt in vis sysfs controls.  Dramatic
   improvements in pagefault latency are realized.
 
 - David Hildenbrand has some cleanups to our remaining use of
   page_mapcount() in the series "fs/proc: move page_mapcount() to
   fs/proc/internal.h".
 
 - David also has some highmem accounting cleanups in the series

   and utilize them".
 
 - Lance Yang's series "Reclaim lazyfree THP without splitting" has
   reduced the latency of the reclaim of pmd-mapped THPs under fairly
   common circumstances.  A 10x speedup is seen in a microbenchmark.
 
   It does this by punting to aother CPU but I guess that's a win unless
   all CPUs are pegged.
 
 - hugetlb_cgroup cleanups from Xiu Jianfeng in the series
   "mm/hugetlb_cgroup: rework on cftypes".
 
 - Miaohe Lin's series "Some cleanups for memory-failure" does just that
   thing.
 
 - Is anyone reading this stuff?  If so, email me!
 
 - Someone other than SeongJae has developed a DAMON feature in Honggyu
   Kim's series "DAMON based tiered memory management for CXL memory".
   This adds DAMON features which may be used to help determine the
   efficiency of our placement of CXL/PCIe attached DRAM.
 
 - DAMON user API centralization and simplificatio work in SeongJae
   Park's series "mm/damon: introduce DAMON parameters online commit
   function".
 
 - In the series "mm: page_type, zsmalloc and page_mapcount_reset()"
   David Hildenbrand does some maintenance work on zsmalloc - partially
   modernizing its use of pageframe fields.
 
 - Kefeng Wang provides more folio conversions in the series "mm: remove
   page_maybe_dma_pinned() and page_mkclean()".
 
 - More cleanup from David Hildenbrand, this time in the series
   "mm/memory_hotplug: use PageOffline() instead of PageReserved() for
   !ZONE_DEVICE".  It "enlightens memory hotplug more about PageOffline()
   pages" and permits the removal of some virtio-mem hacks.
 
 - Barry Song's series "mm: clarify folio_add_new_anon_rmap() and
   __folio_add_anon_rmap()" is a cleanup to the anon folio handling in
   preparation for mTHP (multisize THP) swapin.
 
 - Kefeng Wang's series "mm: improve clear and copy user folio"
   implements more folio conversions, this time in the area of large folio
   userspace copying.
 
 - The series "Docs/mm/damon/maintaier-profile: document a mailing tool
   and community meetup series" tells people how to get better involved
   with other DAMON developers.  From SeongJae Park.
 
 - A large series ("kmsan: Enable on s390") from Ilya Leoshkevich does
   that.
 
 - David Hildenbrand sends along more cleanups, this time against the
   migration code.  The series is "mm/migrate: move NUMA hinting fault
   folio isolation + checks under PTL".
 
 - Jan Kara has found quite a lot of strangenesses and minor errors in
   the readahead code.  He addresses this in the series "mm: Fix various
   readahead quirks".
 
 - SeongJae Park's series "selftests/damon: test DAMOS tried regions and
   {min,max}_nr_regions" adds features and addresses errors in DAMON's self
   testing code.
 
 - Gavin Shan has found a userspace-triggerable WARN in the pagecache
   code.  The series "mm/filemap: Limit page cache size to that supported
   by xarray" addresses this.  The series is marked cc:stable.
 
 - Chengming Zhou's series "mm/ksm: cmp_and_merge_page() optimizations
   and cleanup" cleans up and slightly optimizes KSM.
 
 - Roman Gushchin has separated the memcg-v1 and memcg-v2 code - lots of
   code motion.  The series (which also makes the memcg-v1 code
   Kconfigurable) are
 
   "mm: memcg: separate legacy cgroup v1 code and put under config
   option" and
   "mm: memcg: put cgroup v1-specific memcg data under CONFIG_MEMCG_V1"
 
 - Dan Schatzberg's series "Add swappiness argument to memory.reclaim"
   adds an additional feature to this cgroup-v2 control file.
 
 - The series "Userspace controls soft-offline pages" from Jiaqi Yan
   permits userspace to stop the kernel's automatic treatment of excessive
   correctable memory errors.  In order to permit userspace to monitor and
   handle this situation.
 
 - Kefeng Wang's series "mm: migrate: support poison recover from migrate
   folio" teaches the kernel to appropriately handle migration from
   poisoned source folios rather than simply panicing.
 
 - SeongJae Park's series "Docs/damon: minor fixups and improvements"
   does those things.
 
 - In the series "mm/zsmalloc: change back to per-size_class lock"
   Chengming Zhou improves zsmalloc's scalability and memory utilization.
 
 - Vivek Kasireddy's series "mm/gup: Introduce memfd_pin_folios() for
   pinning memfd folios" makes the GUP code use FOLL_PIN rather than bare
   refcount increments.  So these paes can first be moved aside if they
   reside in the movable zone or a CMA block.
 
 - Andrii Nakryiko has added a binary ioctl()-based API to /proc/pid/maps
   for much faster reading of vma information.  The series is "query VMAs
   from /proc/<pid>/maps".
 
 - In the series "mm: introduce per-order mTHP split counters" Lance Yang
   improves the kernel's presentation of developer information related to
   multisize THP splitting.
 
 - Michael Ellerman has developed the series "Reimplement huge pages
   without hugepd on powerpc (8xx, e500, book3s/64)".  This permits
   userspace to use all available huge page sizes.
 
 - In the series "revert unconditional slab and page allocator fault
   injection calls" Vlastimil Babka removes a performance-affecting and not
   very useful feature from slab fault injection.

ce15e8fe05 Docs/mm/damon/design: remove 'Programmable Modules' section in favor of 'Modules' section
'Programmable Modules' section provides high level descriptions of the
DAMON API-based kernel modules layer.  But 'Modules' section, which is at
the end of the document, provides every detail about the layer including
that of 'Programmable Modules' section.

Since the brief summary of the layers at the beginning of the document has

difficult.  Remove 'Programmable Modules' section in favor of 'Modules'

efeacc2cb6 Docs/mm/damon/design: fix two typos
Patch series "Docs/damon: minor fixups and improvements".

Fixup typos, clarify regions merging operation design with recent change,
add access pattern snapshot example use case, and improve readability of
the design document and subsystem documents index by
reorganizing/wordsmithing and adding links to other sections and/or
documents for easy browsing.


This patch (of 9):

Fix two typos.  The first one is just a simple typo: s/accurach/accuracy/

The second one is made by the author being out of their mind.  'Region
Based Sampling' section of the doc is mistakenly calling the access
frequency counter of region as 'nr_regions'.  Fix it with the correct
name, 'nr_accesses'.

DAMON bi-weekly community meetup series has continued since 2022-08-15 for
community members who prefer synchronous chat over asynchronous mails. 
Recently I got some feedbacks about the series from a few people.  They
told me the series is helpful for understanding of the project and
particiapting to the development, but it could be further better in terms
of the visibility.  Based on that, I started sending meeting reminder for
every occurrence.  For people who don't subscribe the mailing list,
however, adding an announcement on the official document could be helpful.
Document the series on DAMON maintainer's profile for the purpose.

3fe17dd096 Docs/mm/damon/maintainer-profile: introduce HacKerMaiL
Patch series "Docs/mm/damon/maintaier-profile: document a mailing tool and
community meetup series", v2.

There is a mailing tool that developed and maintained by DAMON
maintainer aiming to support DAMON community.  Also there are DAMON
community meetup series.  Both are known to have rooms of improvements
in terms of their visibility.  Document those on the maintainer's
profile document.


This patch (of 2):

Since DAMON was merged into mainline, I periodically received some
questions around DAMON's mailing lists based workflow.  The workflow is
not different from the normal ones that well documented, but it is also
true that it is not always easy and familiar for everyone.

I personally overcame it by developing and using a simple tool, named
HacKerMaiL (hkml)[1].  Based on my experience, I believe it is matured
enough to be used for simple workflows like that of DAMON.  Actually some
DAMON contributors and Linux kernel developers other than myself told me
they are using the tool.

As DAMON maintainer, I also believe helping new DAMON community members
onboarding to the worklow is one of the most important parts of my
responsibilities.  For the reason, the tool is announced[2] to support
DAMON community.  To further increasing the visibility of the fact,
document the tool and the support plan on DAMON maintainer's profile.

d39b6af218 mm: drop leftover comment references to pxx_huge()
pxx_huge() has been removed in recent commit 9636f055da ("mm/treewide:
remove pXd_huge()"), however there are still three comments referencing
the API that got overlooked.  Remove them.

d436a97181 Docs/mm/index: move allocation profiling document to unsorted documents chapter
The memory allocation profiling document was added to the bottom of the
new outline.  Apparently it was not decided by well-defined guidelines
or a thorough discussions.  Rather than that, it was added there just
because there was no place for such unsorted documents.  Now there is
the chapter.  Move the document to the new place.

9472274c92 Docs/mm/index: rename 'Legacy Documentation' to 'Unsorted Documentation'
The intention of 'Legacy Documentation' chapter is to keep the old
documents that not yet sorted into the new outline, and encourage new
documents to be integrated in the new outline from the beginning.

However, the new outline will take some more time to be completed.  It
has started about two years ago, and still many parts are not yet
written.  Also, there is no clear guidline for placing each document for
all cases, for not only the 'legacy' documents, but also for new
documents.  For example, memory allocation profiling document has been
added to the bottom of the new outline.  Apparently it was not following
some well-defined guideliens or a result of a discussion.

Furthermore, the title ("legacy") makes people feel the documents on the
chapter might be outdated or not actively maintained.

Rename 'Legacy Documentation' to 'Unsorted Documentation' and remove the
description saying it is for 'older' documents.  After this change, new
documents that not clear enough where it should be placed on the new
outline can be added on the chapter while well-defined guidelines or
discussion for the new outline is made.

'Memory Management Guide' chapter aims to be not an additional chapter

the sense, marking it as a chapter under the document makes no sense,

Linus Torvalds
1b294a1f35 Networking changes for 6.10.
Core & protocols
 ----------------
 
  - Complete rework of garbage collection of AF_UNIX sockets.
    AF_UNIX is prone to forming reference count cycles due to fd passing
    functionality. New method based on Tarjan's Strongly Connected Components
    algorithm should be both faster and remove a lot of workarounds
    we accumulated over the years.
 
  - Add TCP fraglist GRO support, allowing chaining multiple TCP packets
    and forwarding them together. Useful for small switches / routers which
    lack basic checksum offload in some scenarios (e.g. PPPoE).
 
  - Support using SMP threads for handling packet backlog i.e. packet
    processing from software interfaces and old drivers which don't
    use NAPI. This helps move the processing out of the softirq jumble.
 
  - Continue work of converting from rtnl lock to RCU protection.
    Don't require rtnl lock when reading: IPv6 routing FIB, IPv6 address
    labels, netdev threaded NAPI sysfs files, bonding driver's sysfs files,
    MPLS devconf, IPv4 FIB rules, netns IDs, tcp metrics, TC Qdiscs,
    neighbor entries, ARP entries via ioctl(SIOCGARP), a lot of the link
    information available via rtnetlink.
 
  - Small optimizations from Eric to UDP wake up handling, memory accounting,
    RPS/RFS implementation, TCP packet sizing etc.
 
  - Allow direct page recycling in the bulk API used by XDP, for +2% PPS.
 
  - Support peek with an offset on TCP sockets.
 
  - Add MPTCP APIs for querying last time packets were received/sent/acked,
    and whether MPTCP "upgrade" succeeded on a TCP socket.
 
  - Add intra-node communication shortcut to improve SMC performance.
 
  - Add IPv6 (and IPv{4,6}-over-IPv{4,6}) support to the GTP protocol driver.
 
  - Add HSR-SAN (RedBOX) mode of operation to the HSR protocol driver.
 
  - Add reset reasons for tracing what caused a TCP reset to be sent.
 
  - Introduce direction attribute for xfrm (IPSec) states.
    State can be used either for input or output packet processing.
 
 Things we sprinkled into general kernel code
 --------------------------------------------
 
  - Add bitmap_{read,write}(), bitmap_size(), expose BYTES_TO_BITS().
    This required touch-ups and renaming of a few existing users.
 
  - Add Endian-dependent __counted_by_{le,be} annotations.
 
  - Make building selftests "quieter" by printing summaries like
    "CC object.o" rather than full commands with all the arguments.
 
 Netfilter
 ---------
 
  - Use GFP_KERNEL to clone elements, to deal better with OOM situations
    and avoid failures in the .commit step.
 
 BPF
 ---
 
  - Add eBPF JIT for ARCv2 CPUs.
 
  - Support attaching kprobe BPF programs through kprobe_multi link in
    a session mode, meaning, a BPF program is attached to both function entry
    and return, the entry program can decide if the return program gets
    executed and the entry program can share u64 cookie value with return
    program. "Session mode" is a common use-case for tetragon and bpftrace.
 
  - Add the ability to specify and retrieve BPF cookie for raw tracepoint
    programs in order to ease migration from classic to raw tracepoints.
 
  - Add an internal-only BPF per-CPU instruction for resolving per-CPU
    memory addresses and implement support in x86, ARM64 and RISC-V JITs.
    This allows inlining functions which need to access per-CPU state.
 
  - Optimize x86 BPF JIT's emit_mov_imm64, and add support for various
    atomics in bpf_arena which can be JITed as a single x86 instruction.
    Support BPF arena on ARM64.
 
  - Add a new bpf_wq API for deferring events and refactor process-context
    bpf_timer code to keep common code where possible.
 
  - Harden the BPF verifier's and/or/xor value tracking.
 
  - Introduce crypto kfuncs to let BPF programs call kernel crypto APIs.
 
  - Support bpf_tail_call_static() helper for BPF programs with GCC 13.
 
  - Add bpf_preempt_{disable,enable}() kfuncs in order to allow a BPF
    program to have code sections where preemption is disabled.
 
 Driver API
 ----------
 
  - Skip software TC processing completely if all installed rules are
    marked as HW-only, instead of checking the HW-only flag rule by rule.
 
  - Add support for configuring PoE (Power over Ethernet), similar to
    the already existing support for PoDL (Power over Data Line) config.
 
  - Initial bits of a queue control API, for now allowing a single queue
    to be reset without disturbing packet flow to other queues.
 
  - Common (ethtool) statistics for hardware timestamping.
 
 Tests and tooling
 -----------------
 
  - Remove the need to create a config file to run the net forwarding tests
    so that a naive "make run_tests" can exercise them.
 
  - Define a method of writing tests which require an external endpoint
    to communicate with (to send/receive data towards the test machine).
    Add a few such tests.
 
  - Create a shared code library for writing Python tests. Expose the YAML
    Netlink library from tools/ to the tests for easy Netlink access.
 
  - Move netfilter tests under net/, extend them, separate performance tests
    from correctness tests, and iron out issues found by running them
    "on every commit".
 
  - Refactor BPF selftests to use common network helpers.
 
  - Further work filling in YAML definitions of Netlink messages for:
    nftables, team driver, bonding interfaces, vlan interfaces, VF info,
    TC u32 mark, TC police action.
 
  - Teach Python YAML Netlink to decode attribute policies.
 
  - Extend the definition of the "indexed array" construct in the specs
    to cover arrays of scalars rather than just nests.
 
  - Add hyperlinks between definitions in generated Netlink docs.

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
 "Core & protocols:

   - Complete rework of garbage collection of AF_UNIX sockets.

     AF_UNIX is prone to forming reference count cycles due to fd
     passing functionality. New method based on Tarjan's Strongly
     Connected Components algorithm should be both faster and remove a
     lot of workarounds we accumulated over the years.

   - Add TCP fraglist GRO support, allowing chaining multiple TCP
     packets and forwarding them together. Useful for small switches /
     routers which lack basic checksum offload in some scenarios (e.g.
     PPPoE).

   - Support using SMP threads for handling packet backlog i.e. packet
     processing from software interfaces and old drivers which don't use
     NAPI. This helps move the processing out of the softirq jumble.

   - Continue work of converting from rtnl lock to RCU protection.

     Don't require rtnl lock when reading: IPv6 routing FIB, IPv6
     address labels, netdev threaded NAPI sysfs files, bonding driver's
     sysfs files, MPLS devconf, IPv4 FIB rules, netns IDs, tcp metrics,
     TC Qdiscs, neighbor entries, ARP entries via ioctl(SIOCGARP), a lot
     of the link information available via rtnetlink.

   - Small optimizations from Eric to UDP wake up handling, memory
     accounting, RPS/RFS implementation, TCP packet sizing etc.

   - Allow direct page recycling in the bulk API used by XDP, for +2%
     PPS.

   - Support peek with an offset on TCP sockets.

   - Add MPTCP APIs for querying last time packets were received/sent/acked
     and whether MPTCP "upgrade" succeeded on a TCP socket.

   - Add intra-node communication shortcut to improve SMC performance.

   - Add IPv6 (and IPv{4,6}-over-IPv{4,6}) support to the GTP protocol
     driver.

   - Add HSR-SAN (RedBOX) mode of operation to the HSR protocol driver.

   - Add reset reasons for tracing what caused a TCP reset to be sent.

   - Introduce direction attribute for xfrm (IPSec) states. State can be
     used either for input or output packet processing.

  Things we sprinkled into general kernel code:

   - Add bitmap_{read,write}(), bitmap_size(), expose BYTES_TO_BITS().

     This required touch-ups and renaming of a few existing users.

   - Add Endian-dependent __counted_by_{le,be} annotations.

   - Make building selftests "quieter" by printing summaries like
     "CC object.o" rather than full commands with all the arguments.

  Netfilter:

   - Use GFP_KERNEL to clone elements, to deal better with OOM
     situations and avoid failures in the .commit step.

  BPF:

   - Add eBPF JIT for ARCv2 CPUs.

   - Support attaching kprobe BPF programs through kprobe_multi link in
     a session mode, meaning, a BPF program is attached to both function
     entry and return, the entry program can decide if the return
     program gets executed and the entry program can share u64 cookie
     value with return program. "Session mode" is a common use-case for
     tetragon and bpftrace.

   - Add the ability to specify and retrieve BPF cookie for raw
     tracepoint programs in order to ease migration from classic to raw
     tracepoints.

   - Add an internal-only BPF per-CPU instruction for resolving per-CPU
     memory addresses and implement support in x86, ARM64 and RISC-V
     JITs. This allows inlining functions which need to access per-CPU
     state.

   - Optimize x86 BPF JIT's emit_mov_imm64, and add support for various
     atomics in bpf_arena which can be JITed as a single x86
     instruction. Support BPF arena on ARM64.

   - Add a new bpf_wq API for deferring events and refactor
     process-context bpf_timer code to keep common code where possible.

   - Harden the BPF verifier's and/or/xor value tracking.

   - Introduce crypto kfuncs to let BPF programs call kernel crypto
     APIs.

   - Support bpf_tail_call_static() helper for BPF programs with GCC 13.

   - Add bpf_preempt_{disable,enable}() kfuncs in order to allow a BPF
     program to have code sections where preemption is disabled.

     marked as HW-only, instead of checking the HW-only flag rule by

3974345f26 Docs/mm/damon/maintainer-profile: allow posting patches based on damon/next tree
The document mentions any patches for review should based on mm-unstable
instead of damon/next.  It should be the recommended process, but
sometimes patches based on damon/next could be posted for some reasons. 
Actually, the DAMON-based tiered memory management patchset[1] was written
on top of 'young page' DAMOS filter patchset, which was in damon/next tree
as of the writing.

Allow such case and just ask such things to be clearly specified.

3a5a8d343e mm: fix race between __split_huge_pmd_locked() and GUP-fast
__split_huge_pmd_locked() can be called for a present THP, devmap or
(non-present) migration entry.  It calls pmdp_invalidate() unconditionally
on the pmdp and only determines if it is present or not based on the
returned old pmd.  This is a problem for the migration entry case because
pmd_mkinvalid(), called by pmdp_invalidate() must only be called for a
present pmd.

On arm64 at least, pmd_mkinvalid() will mark the pmd such that any future
call to pmd_present() will return true.  And therefore any lockless
pgtable walker could see the migration entry pmd in this state and start
interpretting the fields as if it were present, leading to BadThings (TM).
GUP-fast appears to be one such lockless pgtable walker.

x86 does not suffer the above problem, but instead pmd_mkinvalid() will
corrupt the offset field of the swap entry within the swap pte.  See link
below for discussion of that problem.

Fix all of this by only calling pmdp_invalidate() for a present pmd.  And
for good measure let's add a warning to all implementations of
pmdp_invalidate[_ad]().  I've manually reviewed all other
pmdp_invalidate[_ad]() call sites and believe all others to be conformant.

This is a theoretical bug found during code review.  I don't have any test
case to trigger it in practice.

8430557fc5 mm/page_table_check: support userfault wr-protect entries
Allow page_table_check hooks to check over userfaultfd wr-protect criteria
upon pgtable updates.  The rule is no co-existance allowed for any
writable flag against userfault wr-protect flag.

This should be better than c2da319c2e, where we used to only sanitize such
issues during a pgtable walk, but when hitting such issue we don't have a
good chance to know where does that writable bit came from [1], so that
even the pgtable walk exposes a kernel bug (which is still helpful on
triaging) but not easy to track and debug.

Now we switch to track the source.  It's much easier too with the recent
introduction of page table check.

There are some limitations with using the page table check here for
userfaultfd wr-protect purpose:

  - It is only enabled with explicit enablement of page table check configs
  and/or boot parameters, but should be good enough to track at least
  syzbot issues, as syzbot should enable PAGE_TABLE_CHECK[_ENFORCED] for
  x86 [1].  We used to have DEBUG_VM but it's now off for most distros,
  while distros also normally not enable PAGE_TABLE_CHECK[_ENFORCED], which
  is similar.

  - It conditionally works with the ptep_modify_prot API.  It will be
  bypassed when e.g. XEN PV is enabled, however still work for most of the
  rest scenarios, which should be the common cases so should be good
  enough.

  - Hugetlb check is a bit hairy, as the page table check cannot identify
  hugetlb pte or normal pte via trapping at set_pte_at(), because of the
  current design where hugetlb maps every layers to pte_t... For example,
  the default set_huge_pte_at() can invoke set_pte_at() directly and lose
  the hugetlb context, treating it the same as a normal pte_t. So far it's
  fine because we have huge_pte_uffd_wp() always equals to pte_uffd_wp() as
  long as supported (x86 only).  It'll be a bigger problem when we'll
  define _PAGE_UFFD_WP differently at various pgtable levels, because then
  one huge_pte_uffd_wp() per-arch will stop making sense first.. as of now
  we can leave this for later too.

This patch also removes commit c2da319c2e altogether, as we have something
better now.

05c5323b2a mm: track mapcount of large folios in single value
Let's track the mapcount of large folios in a single value.  The mapcount
of a large folio currently corresponds to the sum of the entire mapcount
and all page mapcounts.

This sum is what we actually want to know in folio_mapcount() and it is
also sufficient for implementing folio_mapped().

With PTE-mapped THP becoming more important and more widely used, we want
to avoid looping over all pages of a folio just to obtain the mapcount of
large folios.  The comment "In the common case, avoid the loop when no
pages mapped by PTE" in folio_total_mapcount() does no longer hold for
mTHP that are always mapped by PTE.

Further, we are planning on using folio_mapcount() more frequently, and
might even want to remove page mapcounts for large folios in some kernel
configs.  Therefore, allow for reading the mapcount of large folios
efficiently and atomically without looping over any pages.

Maintain the mapcount also for hugetlb pages for simplicity.  Use the new
mapcount to implement folio_mapcount() and folio_mapped().  Make
page_mapped() simply call folio_mapped().  We can now get rid of
folio_large_is_mapped().

_nr_pages_mapped is now only used in rmap code and for debugging purposes.
Keep folio_nr_pages_mapped() around, but document that its use should be
limited to rmap internals and debugging purposes.

This change implies one additional atomic add/sub whenever
mapping/unmapping (parts of) a large folio.

As we now batch RMAP operations for PTE-mapped THP during fork(), during
unmap/zap, and when PTE-remapping a PMD-mapped THP, and we adjust the
large mapcount for a PTE batch only once, the added overhead in the common
case is small.  Only when unmapping individual pages of a large folio
(e.g., during COW), the overhead might be bigger in comparison, but it's
essentially one additional atomic operation.

Note that before the new mapcount would overflow, already our refcount
would overflow: each mapping requires a folio reference.  Extend the
focumentation of folio_mapcount().

f5c12105c1 mm,page_owner: fix refcount imbalance
Current code does not contemplate scenarios were an allocation and free
operation on the same pages do not handle it in the same amount at once. 
To give an example, page_alloc_exact(), where we will allocate a page of
enough order to stafisfy the size request, but we will free the remainings
right away.

In the above example, we will increment the stack_record refcount only
once, but we will decrease it the same number of times as number of unused
pages we have to free.  This will lead to a warning because of refcount
imbalance.

Fix this by recording the number of base pages in the refcount field.

6e9b01909a net: remove gfp_mask from napi_alloc_skb()
__napi_alloc_skb() is napi_alloc_skb() with the added flexibility
of choosing gfp_mask. This is a NAPI function, so GFP_ATOMIC is
implied. The only practical choice the caller has is whether to
set __GFP_NOWARN. But that's a false choice, too, allocation failures
in atomic context will happen, and printing warnings in logs,
effectively for a packet drop, is both too much and very likely
non-actionable.

This leads me to a conclusion that most uses of napi_alloc_skb()
are simply misguided, and should use __GFP_NOWARN in the first
place. We also have a "standard" way of reporting allocation
failures via the queue stat API (qstats::rx-alloc-fail).

The direct motivation for this patch is that one of the drivers
used at Meta calls napi_alloc_skb() (so prior to this patch without
__GFP_NOWARN), and the resulting OOM warning is the top networking
warning in our fleet.

902861e34c - Sumanth Korikkar has taught s390 to allocate hotplug-time page frames
from hotplugged memory rather than only from main memory.  Series
   "implement "memmap on memory" feature on s390".
 
 - More folio conversions from Matthew Wilcox in the series
 
 	"Convert memcontrol charge moving to use folios"
 	"mm: convert mm counter to take a folio"
 
 - Chengming Zhou has optimized zswap's rbtree locking, providing
   significant reductions in system time and modest but measurable
   reductions in overall runtimes.  The series is "mm/zswap: optimize the
   scalability of zswap rb-tree".
 
 - Chengming Zhou has also provided the series "mm/zswap: optimize zswap
   lru list" which provides measurable runtime benefits in some
   swap-intensive situations.
 
 - And Chengming Zhou further optimizes zswap in the series "mm/zswap:
   optimize for dynamic zswap_pools".  Measured improvements are modest.
 
 - zswap cleanups and simplifications from Yosry Ahmed in the series "mm:
   zswap: simplify zswap_swapoff()".
 
 - In the series "Add DAX ABI for memmap_on_memory", Vishal Verma has
   contributed several DAX cleanups as well as adding a sysfs tunable to
   control the memmap_on_memory setting when the dax device is hotplugged
   as system memory.
 
 - Johannes Weiner has added the large series "mm: zswap: cleanups",
   which does that.
 
 - More DAMON work from SeongJae Park in the series
 
 	"mm/damon: make DAMON debugfs interface deprecation unignorable"
 	"selftests/damon: add more tests for core functionalities and corner cases"
 	"Docs/mm/damon: misc readability improvements"
 	"mm/damon: let DAMOS feeds and tame/auto-tune itself"
 
 - In the series "mm/mempolicy: weighted interleave mempolicy and sysfs
   extension" Rakie Kim has developed a new mempolicy interleaving policy
   wherein we allocate memory across nodes in a weighted fashion rather
   than uniformly.  This is beneficial in heterogeneous memory environments
   appearing with CXL.
 
 - Christophe Leroy has contributed some cleanup and consolidation work
   against the ARM pagetable dumping code in the series "mm: ptdump:
   Refactor CONFIG_DEBUG_WX and check_wx_pages debugfs attribute".
 
 - Luis Chamberlain has added some additional xarray selftesting in the
   series "test_xarray: advanced API multi-index tests".
 
 - Muhammad Usama Anjum has reworked the selftest code to make its
   human-readable output conform to the TAP ("Test Anything Protocol")
   format.  Amongst other things, this opens up the use of third-party
   tools to parse and process out selftesting results.
 
 - Ryan Roberts has added fork()-time PTE batching of THP ptes in the
   series "mm/memory: optimize fork() with PTE-mapped THP".  Mainly
   targeted at arm64, this significantly speeds up fork() when the process
   has a large number of pte-mapped folios.
 
 - David Hildenbrand also gets in on the THP pte batching game in his
   series "mm/memory: optimize unmap/zap with PTE-mapped THP".  It
   implements batching during munmap() and other pte teardown situations.
   The microbenchmark improvements are nice.
 
 - And in the series "Transparent Contiguous PTEs for User Mappings" Ryan
   Roberts further utilizes arm's pte's contiguous bit ("contpte
   mappings").  Kernel build times on arm64 improved nicely.  Ryan's series
   "Address some contpte nits" provides some followup work.
 
 - In the series "mm/hugetlb: Restore the reservation" Breno Leitao has
   fixed an obscure hugetlb race which was causing unnecessary page faults.
   He has also added a reproducer under the selftest code.

Merge tag 'mm-stable-2024-03-13-20-04' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:

 - Sumanth Korikkar has taught s390 to allocate hotplug-time page frames
   from hotplugged memory rather than only from main memory. Series
   "implement "memmap on memory" feature on s390".

 - More folio conversions from Matthew Wilcox in the series

	"Convert memcontrol charge moving to use folios"
	"mm: convert mm counter to take a folio"

 - Chengming Zhou has optimized zswap's rbtree locking, providing
   significant reductions in system time and modest but measurable
   reductions in overall runtimes. The series is "mm/zswap: optimize the
   scalability of zswap rb-tree".

 - Chengming Zhou has also provided the series "mm/zswap: optimize zswap
   lru list" which provides measurable runtime benefits in some
   swap-intensive situations.

 - And Chengming Zhou further optimizes zswap in the series "mm/zswap:
   optimize for dynamic zswap_pools". Measured improvements are modest.

 - zswap cleanups and simplifications from Yosry Ahmed in the series
   "mm: zswap: simplify zswap_swapoff()".

 - In the series "Add DAX ABI for memmap_on_memory", Vishal Verma has
   contributed several DAX cleanups as well as adding a sysfs tunable to
   control the memmap_on_memory setting when the dax device is
   hotplugged as system memory.

 - Johannes Weiner has added the large series "mm: zswap: cleanups",
   which does that.

 - More DAMON work from SeongJae Park in the series

	"mm/damon: make DAMON debugfs interface deprecation unignorable"
	"selftests/damon: add more tests for core functionalities and corner cases"
	"Docs/mm/damon: misc readability improvements"
	"mm/damon: let DAMOS feeds and tame/auto-tune itself"

 - In the series "mm/mempolicy: weighted interleave mempolicy and sysfs
   extension" Rakie Kim has developed a new mempolicy interleaving
   policy wherein we allocate memory across nodes in a weighted fashion
   rather than uniformly. This is beneficial in heterogeneous memory
   environments appearing with CXL.

 - Christophe Leroy has contributed some cleanup and consolidation work
   against the ARM pagetable dumping code in the series "mm: ptdump:
   Refactor CONFIG_DEBUG_WX and check_wx_pages debugfs attribute".

 - Luis Chamberlain has added some additional xarray selftesting in the
   series "test_xarray: advanced API multi-index tests".

 - Muhammad Usama Anjum has reworked the selftest code to make its
   human-readable output conform to the TAP ("Test Anything Protocol")
   format. Amongst other things, this opens up the use of third-party
   tools to parse and process out selftesting results.

 - Ryan Roberts has added fork()-time PTE batching of THP ptes in the
   series "mm/memory: optimize fork() with PTE-mapped THP". Mainly
   targeted at arm64, this significantly speeds up fork() when the
   process has a large number of pte-mapped folios.

 - David Hildenbrand also gets in on the THP pte batching game in his
   series "mm/memory: optimize unmap/zap with PTE-mapped THP". It
   implements batching during munmap() and other pte teardown
   situations. The microbenchmark improvements are nice.

 - And in the series "Transparent Contiguous PTEs for User Mappings"
   Ryan Roberts further utilizes arm's pte's contiguous bit ("contpte
   mappings"). Kernel build times on arm64 improved nicely. Ryan's
   series "Address some contpte nits" provides some followup work.

 - In the series "mm/hugetlb: Restore the reservation" Breno Leitao has
   fixed an obscure hugetlb race which was causing unnecessary page
   faults. He has also added a reproducer under the selftest code.

 - In the series "selftests/mm: Output cleanups for the compaction
   test", Mark Brown did what the title claims.

 - Kinsey Ho has added the series "mm/mglru: code cleanup and
   refactoring".

 - Even more zswap material from Nhat Pham. The series "fix and extend
   zswap kselftests" does as claimed.

 - In the series "Introduce cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() to fix DAX
   regression" Mathieu Desnoyers has cleaned up and fixed rather a mess
   in our handling of DAX on archiecctures which have virtually aliasing
   data caches. The arm architecture is the main beneficiary.

ff0b5905a9 Docs/mm/damon/design: remove the details for pageout as paddr doesn't use MADV_PAGEOUT
The doc needs a fix.  As only in the case of virtual address, we are
calling madvise() with MADV_PAGEOUT.  But in the case of physical address,
we are calling reclaim_pages() directly.  MADV_PAGEOUT on virtual address
is much more aggresive to reclaim memory compared to reclaim_pages() on
paddr region.  This patch removes the details so that the description can
apply to both cases.  And we don't need to couple with the implementation
details.
