Function subsection_map_init() is only used in free_area_init() in the
loop of for_each_mem_pfn_range(). And we are sure in each iteration of
for_each_mem_pfn_range(), start_pfn < end_pfn.
So nr_pages is not possible to be 0 and we can remove the check.

Currently ppc64 and x86 are mentioned as architectures where a 65536 value
is reasonable but arm64 isn't listed and it is also a 64-bit architecture.
The help text says that for "arm" the value should be no higher than 32768
but it's only talking about 32-bit ARM. Adding arm64 to the above list
can make this more clear and avoid confusing users who may think that the
32k limit would also apply to 64-bit ARM.

__folio_add_anon_rmap() only needs to handle the cases

For the !folio_test_anon(folio) case, we can now invoke
folio_add_new_anon_rmap() with the rmap flags set to either EXCLUSIVE or
non-EXCLUSIVE. This action will suppress the VM_WARN_ON_FOLIO check
within __folio_add_anon_rmap() while initiating the process of bringing up
mTHP swapin.
static __always_inline void __folio_add_anon_rmap(struct folio *folio,
struct page *page, int nr_pages, struct vm_area_struct *vma,
unsigned long address, rmap_t flags, enum rmap_level level)
{
...
if (unlikely(!folio_test_anon(folio))) {
VM_WARN_ON_FOLIO(folio_test_large(folio) &&
level != RMAP_LEVEL_PMD, folio);
}
...
}
It also improves the code's readability. Currently, all new anonymous
folios calling folio_add_anon_rmap_ptes() are order-0. This ensures that
new folios cannot be partially exclusive; they are either entirely
exclusive or entirely shared.
A useful comment from Hugh's fix:
: Commit "mm: use folio_add_new_anon_rmap() if folio_test_anon(folio)==
: false" has extended folio_add_new_anon_rmap() to use on non-exclusive
: folios, already visible to others in swap cache and on LRU.
:
: That renders its non-atomic __folio_set_swapbacked() unsafe: it risks
: overwriting concurrent atomic operations on folio->flags, losing bits
: added or restoring bits cleared. Since it's only used in this risky way
: when folio_test_locked and !folio_test_anon, many such races are excluded;
: but, for example, isolations by folio_test_clear_lru() are vulnerable, and
: setting or clearing active.
:
: It could just use the atomic folio_set_swapbacked(); but this function
: does try to avoid atomics where it can, so use a branch instead: just
: avoid setting swapbacked when it is already set, that is good enough.
: (Swapbacked is normally stable once set: lazyfree can undo it, but only
: later, when found anon in a page table.)
:
: This fixes a lot of instability under compaction and swapping loads:
: assorted "Bad page"s, VM_BUG_ON_FOLIO()s, apparently even page double
: frees - though I've not worked out what races could lead to the latter.

Patch series "mm: clarify folio_add_new_anon_rmap() and
__folio_add_anon_rmap()", v2.
This patchset is preparatory work for mTHP swapin.
folio_add_new_anon_rmap() assumes that new anon rmaps are always
exclusive. However, this assumption doesn’t hold true for cases like
do_swap_page(), where a new anon might be added to the swapcache and is
not necessarily exclusive.
The patchset extends the rmap flags to allow folio_add_new_anon_rmap() to
handle both exclusive and non-exclusive new anon folios. The
do_swap_page() function is updated to use this extended API with rmap
flags. Consequently, all new anon folios now consistently use
folio_add_new_anon_rmap(). The special case for !folio_test_anon() in
__folio_add_anon_rmap() can be safely removed.
In conclusion, new anon folios always use folio_add_new_anon_rmap(),
regardless of exclusivity. Old anon folios continue to use
__folio_add_anon_rmap() via folio_add_anon_rmap_pmd() and
folio_add_anon_rmap_ptes().
This patch (of 3):
In the case of a swap-in, a new anonymous folio is not necessarily
exclusive. This patch updates the rmap flags to allow a new anonymous
folio to be treated as either exclusive or non-exclusive. To maintain the
existing behavior, we always use EXCLUSIVE as the default setting.

'vmap allocation for size %lu failed: use vmalloc=<size> to increase size'
The above warning is seen in the kernel functionality for allocation of
the restricted virtual memory range till exhaustion.
This message is misleading because 'vmalloc=' is supported on arm32, x86
platforms and is not a valid kernel parameter on a number of other
platforms (in particular its not supported on arm64, alpha, loongarch,
arc, csky, hexagon, microblaze, mips, nios2, openrisc, parisc, m64k,
powerpc, riscv, sh, um, xtensa, s390, sparc). With the update, the output
gets modified to include the function parameters along with the start and
end of the virtual memory range allowed.
The warning message after fix on kernel version 6.10.0-rc1+:

We currently have a hack for virtio-mem in place to handle memory
offlining with PageOffline pages for which we already adjusted the managed

Let's enlighten memory offlining code so we can get rid of that hack, and

We currently initialize the memmap such that PG_reserved is set and the
refcount of the page is 1. In virtio-mem code, we have to manually clear
that PG_reserved flag to make memory offlining with partially hotplugged
memory blocks possible: has_unmovable_pages() would otherwise bail out on
such pages.
We want to avoid PG_reserved where possible and move to typed pages
instead. Further, we want to further enlighten memory offlining code
about PG_offline: offline pages in an online memory section. One example
is handling managed page count adjustments in a cleaner way during memory
offlining.
So let's initialize the pages with PG_offline instead of PG_reserved.
generic_online_page()->__free_pages_core() will now clear that flag before
handing that memory to the buddy.
Note that the page refcount is still 1 and would forbid offlining of such
memory except when special care is take during GOING_OFFLINE as currently
only implemented by virtio-mem.
With this change, we can now get non-PageReserved() pages in the XEN
balloon list. From what I can tell, that can already happen via
decrease_reservation(), so that should be fine.
HV-balloon should not really observe a change: partial online memory
blocks still cannot get surprise-offlined, because the refcount of these
PageOffline() pages is 1.
Update virtio-mem, HV-balloon and XEN-balloon code to be aware that
hotplugged pages are now PageOffline() instead of PageReserved() before
they are handed over to the buddy.
We'll leave the ZONE_DEVICE case alone for now.
Note that self-hosted vmemmap pages will no longer be marked as
reserved. This matches ordinary vmemmap pages allocated from the buddy
during memory hotplug. Now, really only vmemmap pages allocated from
memblock during early boot will be marked reserved. Existing
PageReserved() checks seem to be handling all relevant cases correctly
even after this change.

Patch series "mm/memory_hotplug: use PageOffline() instead of
PageReserved() for !ZONE_DEVICE".
This can be a considered a long-overdue follow-up to some parts of [1].
The patches are based on [2], but they are not strictly required -- just
makes it clearer why we can use adjust_managed_page_count() for memory
hotplug without going into details about highmem.
We stop initializing pages with PageReserved() in memory hotplug code --
except when dealing with ZONE_DEVICE for now. Instead, we use
PageOffline(): all pages are initialized to PageOffline() when onlining a
memory section, and only the ones actually getting exposed to the
system/page allocator will get PageOffline cleared.
This way, we enlighten memory hotplug more about PageOffline() pages and
can cleanup some hacks we have in virtio-mem code.
What about ZONE_DEVICE? PageOffline() is wrong, but we might just stop
using PageReserved() for them later by simply checking for
is_zone_device_page() at suitable places. That will be a separate patch
set / proposal.
This primarily affects virtio-mem, HV-balloon and XEN balloon. I only
briefly tested with virtio-mem, which benefits most from these cleanups.

This patch (of 3):
In preparation for further changes, let's teach __free_pages_core() about
the differences of memory hotplug handling.
Move the memory hotplug specific handling from generic_online_page() to
__free_pages_core(), use adjust_managed_page_count() on the memory hotplug
path, and spell out why memory freed via memblock cannot currently use
adjust_managed_page_count().

Let's clean it up: use a proper page type and store our data (offset into
a page) in the lower 16 bit as documented.
We won't be able to support 256 KiB base pages, which is acceptable.
Teach Kconfig to handle that cleanly using a new CONFIG_HAVE_ZSMALLOC.
Based on this, we should do a proper "struct zsdesc" conversion, as
proposed in [1].
This removes the last _mapcount/page_type offender.

The dirty throttling logic is interspersed with assumptions that dirty
limits in PAGE_SIZE units fit into 32-bit (so that various multiplications
fit into 64-bits). If limits end up being larger, we will hit overflows,
possible divisions by 0 etc. Fix these problems by never allowing so
large dirty limits as they have dubious practical value anyway. For
dirty_bytes / dirty_background_bytes interfaces we can just refuse to set
so large limits. For dirty_ratio / dirty_background_ratio it isn't so
simple as the dirty limit is computed from the amount of available memory
which can change due to memory hotplug etc. So when converting dirty
limits from ratios to numbers of pages, we just don't allow the result to
exceed UINT_MAX.
This is root-only triggerable problem which occurs when the operator
sets dirty limits to >16 TB.

This reverts commit 9319b64790.
The commit is broken in several ways. Firstly, the removed (u64) cast
from the multiplication will introduce a multiplication overflow on 32-bit
archs if wb_thresh * bg_thresh >= 1<<32 (which is actually common - the
default settings with 4GB of RAM will trigger this). Secondly, the
div64_u64() is unnecessarily expensive on 32-bit archs. We have
div64_ul() in case we want to be safe & cheap. Thirdly, if dirty
thresholds are larger than 1<<32 pages, then dirty balancing is going to
blow up in many other spectacular ways anyway so trying to fix one
possible overflow is just moot.

Patch series "mm/damon: introduce DAMON parameters online commit function".
DAMON context struct (damon_ctx) contains user requests (parameters),
internal status, and operation results. For flexible usages, DAMON API
users are encouraged to manually manipulate the struct. That works well
for simple use cases. However, it has turned out that it is not that
simple at least for online parameters udpate. It is easy to forget
properly maintaining internal status and operation results. Also, such
manual manipulation for online tuning is implemented multiple times on
DAMON API users including DAMON sysfs interface, DAMON_RECLAIM and
DAMON_LRU_SORT. As a result, we have multiple sources of bugs for same
problem. Actually we found and fixed a few bugs from online parameter
updating of DAMON API users.

Patch series "DAMON based tiered memory management for CXL memory", v6.
Introduction
============
With the advent of CXL/PCIe attached DRAM, which will be called simply as
CXL memory in this cover letter, some systems are becoming more
heterogeneous having memory systems with different latency and bandwidth
characteristics. They are usually handled as different NUMA nodes in
separate memory tiers and CXL memory is used as slow tiers because of its
protocol overhead compared to local DRAM.
In this kind of systems, we need to be careful placing memory pages on
proper NUMA nodes based on the memory access frequency. Otherwise, some
frequently accessed pages might reside on slow tiers and it makes
performance degradation unexpectedly. Moreover, the memory access
patterns can be changed at runtime.
To handle this problem, we need a way to monitor the memory access
patterns and migrate pages based on their access temperature. The
DAMON(Data Access MONitor) framework and its DAMOS(DAMON-based Operation
Schemes) can be useful features for monitoring and migrating pages. DAMOS
provides multiple actions based on DAMON monitoring results and it can be
used for proactive reclaim, which means swapping cold pages out with
DAMOS_PAGEOUT action, but it doesn't support migration actions such as
demotion and promotion between tiered memory nodes.
This series supports two new DAMOS actions; DAMOS_MIGRATE_HOT for
promotion from slow tiers and DAMOS_MIGRATE_COLD for demotion from fast
tiers. This prevents hot pages from being stuck on slow tiers, which
makes performance degradation and cold pages can be proactively demoted to
slow tiers so that the system can increase the chance to allocate more hot
pages to fast tiers.
The DAMON provides various tuning knobs but we found that the proactive
demotion for cold pages is especially useful when the system is running
out of memory on its fast tier nodes.
Our evaluation result shows that it reduces the performance slowdown
compared to the default memory policy from 11% to 3~5% when the system
runs under high memory pressure on its fast tier DRAM nodes.
DAMON configuration
===================
The specific DAMON configuration doesn't have to be in the scope of this
patch series, but some rough idea is better to be shared to explain the
evaluation result.
The DAMON provides many knobs for fine tuning but its configuration file
is generated by HMSDK[3]. It includes gen_config.py script that generates
a json file with the full config of DAMON knobs and it creates multiple
kdamonds for each NUMA node when the DAMON is enabled so that it can run
hot/cold based migration for tiered memory.
Evaluation Workload
===================
The performance evaluation is done with redis[4], which is a widely used
in-memory database and the memory access patterns are generated via
YCSB[5]. We have measured two different workloads with zipfian and latest
distributions but their configs are slightly modified to make memory usage
higher and execution time longer for better evaluation.
The idea of evaluation using these migrate_{hot,cold} actions covers
system-wide memory management rather than partitioning hot/cold pages of a
single workload. The default memory allocation policy creates pages to
the fast tier DRAM node first, then allocates newly created pages to the
slow tier CXL node when the DRAM node has insufficient free space. Once
the page allocation is done then those pages never move between NUMA
nodes. It's not true when using numa balancing, but it is not the scope
of this DAMON based tiered memory management support.
If the working set of redis can be fit fully into the DRAM node, then the
redis will access the fast DRAM only. Since the performance of DRAM only
is faster than partially accessing CXL memory in slow tiers, this
environment is not useful to evaluate this patch series.
To make pages of redis be distributed across fast DRAM node and slow CXL
node to evaluate our migrate_{hot,cold} actions, we pre-allocate some cold
memory externally using mmap and memset before launching redis-server. We
assumed that there are enough amount of cold memory in datacenters as
TMO[6] and TPP[7] papers mentioned.
The evaluation sequence is as follows.
1. Turn on DAMON with DAMOS_MIGRATE_COLD action for DRAM node and
DAMOS_MIGRATE_HOT action for CXL node. It demotes cold pages on DRAM
node and promotes hot pages on CXL node in a regular interval.
2. Allocate a huge block of cold memory by calling mmap and memset at
the fast tier DRAM node, then make the process sleep to make the fast
tier has insufficient space for redis-server.
3. Launch redis-server and load prebaked snapshot image, dump.rdb. The
redis-server consumes 52GB of anon pages and 33GB of file pages, but
due to the cold memory allocated at 2, it fails allocating the entire
memory of redis-server on the fast tier DRAM node so it partially
allocates the remaining on the slow tier CXL node. The ratio of
DRAM:CXL depends on the size of the pre-allocated cold memory.
4. Run YCSB to make zipfian or latest distribution of memory accesses to
redis-server, then measure its execution time when it's completed.
5. Repeat 4 over 50 times to measure the average execution time for each
run.
6. Increase the cold memory size then repeat goes to 2.
For each test at 4 took about a minute so repeating it 50 times almost
took about 1 hour for each test with a specific cold memory from 440GB to
500GB in 10GB increments for each evaluation. So it took about more than
10 hours for both zipfian and latest workloads to get the entire
evaluation results. Repeating the same test set multiple times doesn't
show much difference so I think it might be enough to make the result
reliable.
Evaluation Results
==================
All the result values are normalized to DRAM-only execution time because
the workload cannot be faster than DRAM-only unless the workload hits the
peak bandwidth but our redis test doesn't go beyond the bandwidth limit.
So the DRAM-only execution time is the ideal result without affected by
the gap between DRAM and CXL performance difference. The NUMA node
environment is as follows.
node0 - local DRAM, 512GB with a CPU socket (fast tier)
node1 - disabled
node2 - CXL DRAM, 96GB, no CPU attached (slow tier)
The following is the result of generating zipfian distribution to
redis-server and the numbers are averaged by 50 times of execution.
1. YCSB zipfian distribution read only workload
memory pressure with cold memory on node0 with 512GB of local DRAM.

DAMON lazy | - 0.5 3.0 4.5 5.4 6.4 9.4 9.1 | 5.5
====================+================================================+=========
Each test result is based on the execution environment as follows.
DRAM-only: redis-server uses only local DRAM memory.
CXL-only: redis-server uses only CXL memory.
default: default memory policy(MPOL_DEFAULT).
numa balancing disabled.
DAMON tiered: DAMON enabled with DAMOS_MIGRATE_COLD for DRAM
nodes and DAMOS_MIGRATE_HOT for CXL nodes.
DAMON lazy: same as DAMON tiered, but turn on DAMON just
before making memory access request via YCSB.
The above result shows the "default" execution time goes up as the size of
cold memory is increased from 440G to 500G because the more cold memory
used, the more CXL memory is used for the target redis workload and this
makes the execution time increase.
However, "DAMON tiered" and other DAMON results show less slowdown because
the DAMOS_MIGRATE_COLD action at DRAM node proactively demotes
pre-allocated cold memory to CXL node and this free space at DRAM
increases more chance to allocate hot or warm pages of redis-server to
fast DRAM node. Moreover, DAMOS_MIGRATE_HOT action at CXL node also
promotes hot pages of redis-server to DRAM node actively.
As a result, it makes more memory of redis-server stay in DRAM node
compared to "default" memory policy and this makes the performance
improvement.
Please note that the result numbers of "DAMON tiered" and "DAMON lazy" at
500G are marked with * stars, which means their test results are replaced
with reproduced tests that didn't have OOM issue.
That was needed because sometimes the test processes get OOM when DRAM has
insufficient space. The DAMOS_MIGRATE_HOT doesn't kick reclaim but just
gives up migration when there is not enough space at DRAM side. The
problem happens when there is competition between normal allocation and
migration and the migration is done before normal allocation, then the
completely unrelated normal allocation can trigger reclaim, which incurs
OOM.
Because of this issue, I have also tested more cases with
"demotion_enabled" flag enabled to make such reclaim doesn't trigger OOM,
but just demote reclaimed pages. The following test results show more
tests with "kswapd" marked.

====================+================================================+=========
Each test result is based on the exeuction environment as follows.
DAMON tiered: same as before
DAMON lazy: same as before
DAMON tiered kswapd: same as DAMON tiered, but turn on
/sys/kernel/mm/numa/demotion_enabled to make
kswapd or direct reclaim does demotion.
DAMON lazy kswapd: same as DAMON lazy, but turn on
/sys/kernel/mm/numa/demotion_enabled to make
kswapd or direct reclaim does demotion.
The "DAMON tiered kswapd" and "DAMON lazy kswapd" didn't trigger OOM at
all unlike other tests because kswapd and direct reclaim from DRAM node
can demote reclaimed pages to CXL node independently from DAMON actions
and their results are slightly better than without having
"demotion_enabled".
In summary, the evaluation results show that DAMON memory management with
DAMOS_MIGRATE_{HOT,COLD} actions reduces the performance slowdown compared
to the "default" memory policy from 11% to 3~5% when the system runs with
high memory pressure on its fast tier DRAM nodes.
Having these DAMOS_MIGRATE_HOT and DAMOS_MIGRATE_COLD actions can make
tiered memory systems run more efficiently under high memory pressures.
This patch (of 7):
The alloc_demote_folio can be used out of vmscan.c so it'd be better to
remove static keyword from it.

Function deferred_[init|free]_pages are only used in
deferred_init_maxorder(), which makes sure the range to init/free is
within MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES size.
With this knowledge, we can simplify these two functions. Since
* only the first pfn could be IS_MAX_ORDER_ALIGNED()
Also since the range passed to deferred_[init|free]_pages is always from
memblock.memory for those we have already allocated memmap to cover,
pfn_valid() always return true. Then we can remove related check.

Dirty swap cache page could live both in page table (not page cache) and

When user sets SIGBUS to SIG_IGN, it won't cause loop now. For action
required mce error, SIGBUS cannot be blocked. Also when a hwpoisoned page
is re-accessed, kill_accessing_process() will be called to kill the
process.
