mm/vmalloc: take vmap_purge_lock in shrinker
decay_va_pool_node() can be invoked concurrently from two paths:
__purge_vmap_area_lazy() when pools are being purged, and the shrinker via
vmap_node_shrink_scan().
However, decay_va_pool_node() is not safe to run concurrently, and the
shrinker path currently lacks serialization, leading to races and possible
leaks.
Protect decay_va_pool_node() by taking vmap_purge_lock in the shrinker
path to ensure serialization with purge users.

vmalloc: support __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL and __GFP_NORETRY
__GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL and __GFP_NORETRY haven't been supported so far because their semantic (i.e. to not trigger OOM killer) is not possible with the existing vmalloc page table allocation which is allowing for the OOM killer. Example: __vmalloc(size, GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL); <snip> vmalloc_test/55 invoked oom-killer: gfp_mask=0x40dc0( GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_ZERO|__GFP_COMP), order=0, oom_score_adj=0 active_anon:0 inactive_anon:0 isolated_anon:0 active_file:0 inactive_file:0 isolated_file:0 unevictable:0 dirty:0 writeback:0 slab_reclaimable:700 slab_unreclaimable:33708 mapped:0 shmem:0 pagetables:5174 sec_pagetables:0 bounce:0 kernel_misc_reclaimable:0 free:850 free_pcp:319 free_cma:0 CPU: 4 UID: 0 PID: 639 Comm: vmalloc_test/55 ...

While we cannot change existing page table allocation code easily we can piggy back on scoped NOWAIT allocation for them that we already have in place. The rationale is that the bulk of the consumed memory is sitting in pages backing the vmalloc allocation. Page tables are only participating a tiny fraction. Moreover page tables for virtually allocated areas are never reclaimed so the longer the system runs to less likely they are. It makes sense to allow an approximation of __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL and __GFP_NORETRY even if the page table allocation part is much weaker. This doesn't break the failure mode while it allows for the no OOM semantic.

mm/vmalloc: fix incorrect size reporting on allocation failure
When __vmalloc_area_node() fails to allocate pages, the failure message may report an incorrect allocation size, for example: vmalloc error: size 0, failed to allocate pages, ... This happens because the warning prints area->nr_pages * PAGE_SIZE. At this point, area->nr_pages may be zero or partly populated thus it is not valid. Report the originally requested allocation size instead by using nr_small_pages * PAGE_SIZE, which reflects the actual number of pages being requested by user.

mm/vmalloc: export clear_vm_uninitialized_flag()
Patch series "Fix KASAN support for KHO restored vmalloc regions". When KHO restores a vmalloc area, it maps existing physical pages into a newly allocated virtual memory area. However, because these areas were not properly unpoisoned, KASAN would treat any access to the restored region as out-of-bounds, as seen in the following trace: BUG: KASAN: vmalloc-out-of-bounds in kho_test_restore_data.isra.0+0x17b/0x2cd Read of size 8 at addr ffffc90000025000 by task swapper/0/1 [...] Call Trace: [...] kasan_report+0xe8/0x120 kho_test_restore_data.isra.0+0x17b/0x2cd kho_test_init+0x15a/0x1f0 do_one_initcall+0xd5/0x4b0 The fix involves deferring KASAN's default poisoning by using the VM_UNINITIALIZED flag during allocation, manually unpoisoning the memory once it is correctly mapped, and then clearing the uninitialized flag using a newly exported helper. This patch (of 2): Make clear_vm_uninitialized_flag() available to other parts of the kernel that need to manage vmalloc areas manually, such as KHO for restoring vmallocs.

Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argument
This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using
git grep -l '\<k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'
to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.
Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.
For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types
This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union object instances: Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...) Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...) Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...) (where TYPE may also be *VAR) The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning "TYPE *". Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <kees@kernel.org> |

mm/vmalloc: prevent RCU stalls in kasan_release_vmalloc_node
When CONFIG_PAGE_OWNER is enabled, freeing KASAN shadow pages during vmalloc cleanup triggers expensive stack unwinding that acquires RCU read locks. Processing a large purge_list without rescheduling can cause the task to hold CPU for extended periods (10+ seconds), leading to RCU stalls and potential OOM conditions. The issue manifests in purge_vmap_node() -> kasan_release_vmalloc_node() where iterating through hundreds or thousands of vmap_area entries and freeing their associated shadow pages causes: rcu: INFO: rcu_preempt detected stalls on CPUs/tasks: rcu: Tasks blocked on level-0 rcu_node (CPUs 0-1): P6229/1:b..l ... task:kworker/0:17 state:R running task stack:28840 pid:6229 ... kasan_release_vmalloc_node+0x1ba/0xad0 mm/vmalloc.c:2299 purge_vmap_node+0x1ba/0xad0 mm/vmalloc.c:2299 Each call to kasan_release_vmalloc() can free many pages, and with page_owner tracking, each free triggers save_stack() which performs stack unwinding under RCU read lock. Without yielding, this creates an unbounded RCU critical section. Add periodic cond_resched() calls within the loop to allow: - RCU grace periods to complete - Other tasks to run - Scheduler to preempt when needed The fix uses need_resched() for immediate response under load, with a batch count of 32 as a guaranteed upper bound to prevent worst-case stalls even under light load.

mm: introduce generic lazy_mmu helpers
The implementation of the lazy MMU mode is currently entirely
arch-specific; core code directly calls arch helpers:
arch_{enter,leave}_lazy_mmu_mode().
We are about to introduce support for nested lazy MMU sections. As things
stand we'd have to duplicate that logic in every arch implementing
lazy_mmu - adding to a fair amount of logic already duplicated across
lazy_mmu implementations.
This patch therefore introduces a new generic layer that calls the
existing arch_* helpers. Two pair of calls are introduced:
* lazy_mmu_mode_enable() ... lazy_mmu_mode_disable()
This is the standard case where the mode is enabled for a given
block of code by surrounding it with enable() and disable()
calls.
* lazy_mmu_mode_pause() ... lazy_mmu_mode_resume()
This is for situations where the mode is temporarily disabled
by first calling pause() and then resume() (e.g. to prevent any
batching from occurring in a critical section).
The documentation in <linux/pgtable.h> will be updated in a subsequent
patch.
No functional change should be introduced at this stage. The
implementation of enable()/resume() and disable()/pause() is currently
identical, but nesting support will change that.
Most of the call sites have been updated using the following Coccinelle
script:
@@
@@
{
...
- arch_enter_lazy_mmu_mode();
+ lazy_mmu_mode_enable();
...
- arch_leave_lazy_mmu_mode();
+ lazy_mmu_mode_disable();
...
}
@@
@@
{
...
- arch_leave_lazy_mmu_mode();
+ lazy_mmu_mode_pause();
...
- arch_enter_lazy_mmu_mode();
+ lazy_mmu_mode_resume();
...
}
A couple of notes regarding x86:
* Xen is currently the only case where explicit handling is required
for lazy MMU when context-switching. This is purely an
implementation detail and using the generic lazy_mmu_mode_*
functions would cause trouble when nesting support is introduced,
because the generic functions must be called from the current task.
For that reason we still use arch_leave() and arch_enter() there.
* x86 calls arch_flush_lazy_mmu_mode() unconditionally in a few
places, but only defines it if PARAVIRT_XXL is selected, and we
are removing the fallback in <linux/pgtable.h>. Add a new fallback
definition to <asm/pgtable.h> to keep things building.

mm/vmalloc: clarify why vmap_range_noflush() might sleep
The only reason vmap_range_noflush() can sleep is because of pagetable allocations. The actual allocation mechanism is arch-specific so might_alloc() doesn't work here (what GFP flags would be used?). Hence, just add a comment. Also note that this might do a TLB shootdown. This is not actually sleeping but it requires IRQs on for x86, and might_sleep() incidentally serves to detect violations of that too.

kasan: refactor pcpu kasan vmalloc unpoison
A KASAN tag mismatch, possibly causing a kernel panic, can be observed
on systems with a tag-based KASAN enabled and with multiple NUMA nodes.
It was reported on arm64 and reproduced on x86. It can be explained in
the following points:
1. There can be more than one virtual memory chunk.
2. Chunk's base address has a tag.
3. The base address points at the first chunk and thus inherits
the tag of the first chunk.
4. The subsequent chunks will be accessed with the tag from the
first chunk.
5. Thus, the subsequent chunks need to have their tag set to
match that of the first chunk.
Refactor code by reusing __kasan_unpoison_vmalloc in a new helper in
preparation for the actual fix.

mm/kasan: fix incorrect unpoisoning in vrealloc for KASAN
Patch series "kasan: vmalloc: Fixes for the percpu allocator and
vrealloc", v3.
Patches fix two issues related to KASAN and vmalloc.
The first one, a KASAN tag mismatch, possibly resulting in a kernel panic,
can be observed on systems with a tag-based KASAN enabled and with
multiple NUMA nodes. Initially it was only noticed on x86 [1] but later a
similar issue was also reported on arm64 [2].
Specifically the problem is related to how vm_structs interact with
pcpu_chunks - both when they are allocated, assigned and when pcpu_chunk
addresses are derived.
When vm_structs are allocated they are unpoisoned, each with a different
random tag, if vmalloc support is enabled along the KASAN mode. Later
when first pcpu chunk is allocated it gets its 'base_addr' field set to
the first allocated vm_struct. With that it inherits that vm_struct's
tag.
When pcpu_chunk addresses are later derived (by pcpu_chunk_addr(), for
example in pcpu_alloc_noprof()) the base_addr field is used and offsets
are added to it. If the initial conditions are satisfied then some of the
offsets will point into memory allocated with a different vm_struct. So
while the lower bits will get accurately derived the tag bits in the top
of the pointer won't match the shadow memory contents.
The solution (proposed at v2 of the x86 KASAN series [3]) is to unpoison
the vm_structs with the same tag when allocating them for the per cpu
allocator (in pcpu_get_vm_areas()).
The second one reported by syzkaller [4] is related to vrealloc and
happens because of random tag generation when unpoisoning memory without
allocating new pages. This breaks shadow memory tracking and needs to
reuse the existing tag instead of generating a new one. At the same time
an inconsistency in used flags is corrected.
This patch (of 3):
Syzkaller reported a memory out-of-bounds bug [4]. This patch fixes two
issues:
1. In vrealloc the KASAN_VMALLOC_VM_ALLOC flag is missing when
unpoisoning the extended region. This flag is required to correctly
associate the allocation with KASAN's vmalloc tracking.
Note: In contrast, vzalloc (via __vmalloc_node_range_noprof)
explicitly sets KASAN_VMALLOC_VM_ALLOC and calls
kasan_unpoison_vmalloc() with it. vrealloc must behave consistently --
especially when reusing existing vmalloc regions -- to ensure KASAN can
track allocations correctly.
2. When vrealloc reuses an existing vmalloc region (without allocating

access tracking.
Introduce KASAN_VMALLOC_KEEP_TAG, a new KASAN flag that allows reusing the

Pass KASAN_VMALLOC_KEEP_TAG and KASAN_VMALLOC_VM_ALLOC to the
kasan_unpoison_vmalloc inside vrealloc_node_align_noprof().

mm/vmalloc: warn on invalid vmalloc gfp flags
Patch series "make vmalloc gfp flags usage more apparent", v4. We should do a better job at enforcing gfp flags for vmalloc. Right now, we have a kernel-doc for __vmalloc_node_range(), and hope callers pass in supported flags. If a caller were to pass in an unsupported flag, we may BUG, silently clear it, or completely ignore it. If we are more proactive about enforcing gfp flags, we can making sure callers know when they may be asking for unsupported behavior. This patchset lets vmalloc control the incoming gfp flags, and cleans up some hard to read gfp code. This patch (of 4): Vmalloc explicitly supports a list of flags, but we never enforce them. vmalloc has been trying to handle unsupported flags by clearing and setting flags wherever necessary. This is messy and makes the code harder to understand, when we could simply check for a supported input immediately instead. Define a helper mask and function telling callers they have passed in invalid flags, and clear those unsupported vmalloc flags.

mm/vmalloc: request large order pages from buddy allocator
Sometimes, vm_area_alloc_pages() will want many pages from the buddy allocator. Rather than making requests to the buddy allocator for at most 100 pages at a time, we can eagerly request large order pages a smaller number of times. We still split the large order pages down to order-0 as the rest of the vmalloc code (and some callers) depend on it. We still defer to the bulk allocator and fallback path in case of order-0 pages or failure.

mm: vmalloc: WARN_ON if mapping size is not PAGE_SIZE aligned
In mm/vmalloc.c, the function vmap_pte_range() assumes that the mapping size is aligned to PAGE_SIZE. If this assumption is violated, the loop will become infinite because the termination condition (`addr != end`) will never be met. This can lead to overwriting other VA ranges and/or random pages physically follow the page table. It's the caller's responsibility to ensure that the mapping size is aligned to PAGE_SIZE. However, the memory corruption is hard to root cause. To identify the programming error in the caller easier, check whether the mapping size is PAGE_SIZE aligned with WARN_ON_ONCE().

kmsan: remove hard-coded GFP_KERNEL flags

Plumb gfp_mask through the kmsan_vmap_pages_range_noflush(), so it can use it internally for its demand. Please note, the subsequent __vmap_pages_range_noflush() still uses GFP_KERNEL and can sleep.

mm/vmalloc: handle non-blocking GFP in __vmalloc_area_node()
Make __vmalloc_area_node() respect non-blocking GFP masks such as
GFP_ATOMIC and GFP_NOWAIT.
- Add memalloc_apply_gfp_scope()/memalloc_restore_scope()
helpers to apply a proper scope.
- Apply memalloc_apply_gfp_scope()/memalloc_restore_scope()
around vmap_pages_range() for page table setup.
- Set "nofail" to false if a non-blocking mask is used, as
they are mutually exclusive.
This is particularly important for page table allocations that internally
use GFP_PGTABLE_KERNEL, which may sleep unless such scope restrictions are
applied. For example:
<snip>
__pte_alloc_kernel()
pte_alloc_one_kernel(&init_mm);
pagetable_alloc_noprof(GFP_PGTABLE_KERNEL & ~__GFP_HIGHMEM, 0);
<snip>
Note: in most cases, PTE entries are established only up to the level
required by current vmap space usage, meaning the page tables are
typically fully populated during the mapping process.

mm/vmalloc: defer freeing partly initialized vm_struct
__vmalloc_area_node() may call free_vmap_area() or vfree() on error paths, both of which can sleep. This becomes problematic if the function is invoked from an atomic context, such as when GFP_ATOMIC or GFP_NOWAIT is passed via gfp_mask. To fix this, unify error paths and defer the cleanup of partly initialized vm_struct objects to a workqueue. This ensures that freeing happens in a process context and avoids invalid sleeps in atomic regions.

mm/vmalloc: support non-blocking GFP flags in alloc_vmap_area()
alloc_vmap_area() currently assumes that sleeping is allowed during allocation. This is not true for callers which pass non-blocking GFP flags, such as GFP_ATOMIC or GFP_NOWAIT. This patch adds logic to detect whether the given gfp_mask permits blocking. It avoids invoking might_sleep() or falling back to reclaim path if blocking is not allowed. This makes alloc_vmap_area() safer for use in non-sleeping contexts, where previously it could hit unexpected sleeps, trigger warnings. It is a preparation and adjustment step to later allow both GFP_ATOMIC and GFP_NOWAIT allocations in this series.

mm/vmalloc: move resched point into alloc_vmap_area()
Currently vm_area_alloc_pages() contains two cond_resched() points. However, the page allocator already has its own in slow path so an extra resched is not optimal because it delays the loops. The place where CPU time can be consumed is in the VA-space search in alloc_vmap_area(), especially if the space is really fragmented using synthetic stress tests, after a fast path falls back to a slow one. Move a single cond_resched() there, after dropping free_vmap_area_lock in a slow path. This keeps fairness where it matters while removing redundant yields from the page-allocation path.

mm/vmalloc, mm/kasan: respect gfp mask in kasan_populate_vmalloc()
kasan_populate_vmalloc() and its helpers ignore the caller's gfp_mask and
always allocate memory using the hardcoded GFP_KERNEL flag. This makes
them inconsistent with vmalloc(), which was recently extended to support
GFP_NOFS and GFP_NOIO allocations.
Page table allocations performed during shadow population also ignore the
external gfp_mask. To preserve the intended semantics of GFP_NOFS and
GFP_NOIO, wrap the apply_to_page_range() calls into the appropriate
memalloc scope.
xfs calls vmalloc with GFP_NOFS, so this bug could lead to deadlock.
There was a report here
https://lkml.kernel.org/r/686ea951.050a0220.385921.0016.GAE@google.com
This patch:
- Extends kasan_populate_vmalloc() and helpers to take gfp_mask;
- Passes gfp_mask down to alloc_pages_bulk() and __get_free_page();
- Enforces GFP_NOFS/NOIO semantics with memalloc_*_save()/restore()
around apply_to_page_range();
- Updates vmalloc.c and percpu allocator call sites accordingly.

- The 11 patch series "Add folio_mk_pte()" from Matthew Wilcox
simplifies the act of creating a pte which addresses the first page in a folio and reduces the amount of plumbing which architecture must implement to provide this. - The 8 patch series "Misc folio patches for 6.16" from Matthew Wilcox is a shower of largely unrelated folio infrastructure changes which clean things up and better prepare us for future work. - The 3 patch series "memory,x86,acpi: hotplug memory alignment advisement" from Gregory Price adds early-init code to prevent x86 from leaving physical memory unused when physical address regions are not aligned to memory block size. - The 2 patch series "mm/compaction: allow more aggressive proactive compaction" from Michal Clapinski provides some tuning of the (sadly, hard-coded (more sadly, not auto-tuned)) thresholds for our invokation of proactive compaction. In a simple test case, the reduction of a guest VM's memory consumption was dramatic. - The 8 patch series "Minor cleanups and improvements to swap freeing code" from Kemeng Shi provides some code cleaups and a small efficiency improvement to this part of our swap handling code. - The 6 patch series "ptrace: introduce PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO API" from Dmitry Levin adds the ability for a ptracer to modify syscalls arguments. At this time we can alter only "system call information that are used by strace system call tampering, namely, syscall number, syscall arguments, and syscall return value. This series should have been incorporated into mm.git's "non-MM" branch, but I goofed. - The 3 patch series "fs/proc: extend the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl to report guard regions" from Andrei Vagin extends the info returned by the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl against /proc/pid/pagemap. This permits CRIU to more efficiently get at the info about guard regions. - The 2 patch series "Fix parameter passed to page_mapcount_is_type()" from Gavin Shan implements that fix. No runtime effect is expected because validate_page_before_insert() happens to fix up this error. - The 3 patch series "kernel/events/uprobes: uprobe_write_opcode() rewrite" from David Hildenbrand basically brings uprobe text poking into the current decade. Remove a bunch of hand-rolled implementation in favor of using more current facilities. - The 3 patch series "mm/ptdump: Drop assumption that pxd_val() is u64" from Anshuman Khandual provides enhancements and generalizations to the pte dumping code. This might be needed when 128-bit Page Table Descriptors are enabled for ARM. - The 12 patch series "Always call constructor for kernel page tables" from Kevin Brodsky "ensures that the ctor/dtor is always called for kernel pgtables, as it already is for user pgtables". This permits the addition of more functionality such as "insert hooks to protect page tables". This change does result in various architectures performing unnecesary work, but this is fixed up where it is anticipated to occur. - The 9 patch series "Rust support for mm_struct, vm_area_struct, and mmap" from Alice Ryhl adds plumbing to permit Rust access to core MM structures. - The 3 patch series "fix incorrectly disallowed anonymous VMA merges" from Lorenzo Stoakes takes advantage of some VMA merging opportunities which we've been missing for 15 years. - The 4 patch series "mm/madvise: batch tlb flushes for MADV_DONTNEED and MADV_FREE" from SeongJae Park optimizes process_madvise()'s TLB flushing. Instead of flushing each address range in the provided iovec, we batch the flushing across all the iovec entries. The syscall's cost was approximately halved with a microbenchmark which was designed to load this particular operation. - The 6 patch series "Track node vacancy to reduce worst case allocation counts" from Sidhartha Kumar makes the maple tree smarter about its node preallocation. stress-ng mmap performance increased by single-digit percentages and the amount of unnecessarily preallocated memory was dramaticelly reduced. - The 3 patch series "mm/gup: Minor fix, cleanup and improvements" from Baoquan He removes a few unnecessary things which Baoquan noted when reading the code. - The 3 patch series ""Enhance sysfs handling for memory hotplug in weighted interleave" from Rakie Kim "enhances the weighted interleave policy in the memory management subsystem by improving sysfs handling, fixing memory leaks, and introducing dynamic sysfs updates for memory hotplug support". Fixes things on error paths which we are unlikely to hit. - The 7 patch series "mm/damon: auto-tune DAMOS for NUMA setups including tiered memory" from SeongJae Park introduces new DAMOS quota goal metrics which eliminate the manual tuning which is required when utilizing DAMON for memory tiering. - The 5 patch series "mm/vmalloc.c: code cleanup and improvements" from Baoquan He provides cleanups and small efficiency improvements which Baoquan found via code inspection. - The 2 patch series "vmscan: enforce mems_effective during demotion" from Gregory Price "changes reclaim to respect cpuset.mems_effective during demotion when possible". because "presently, reclaim explicitly ignores cpuset.mems_effective when demoting, which may cause the cpuset settings to violated." "This is useful for isolating workloads on a multi-tenant system from certain classes of memory more consistently." - The 2 patch series ""Clean up split_huge_pmd_locked() and remove unnecessary folio pointers" from Gavin Guo provides minor cleanups and efficiency gains in in the huge page splitting and migrating code. - The 3 patch series "Use kmem_cache for memcg alloc" from Huan Yang creates a slab cache for `struct mem_cgroup', yielding improved memory utilization. - The 4 patch series "add max arg to swappiness in memory.reclaim and lru_gen" from Zhongkun He adds a new "max" argument to the "swappiness=" argument for memory.reclaim MGLRU's lru_gen. This directs proactive reclaim to reclaim from only anon folios rather than file-backed folios. - The 17 patch series "kexec: introduce Kexec HandOver (KHO)" from Mike Rapoport is the first step on the path to permitting the kernel to maintain existing VMs while replacing the host kernel via file-based kexec. At this time only memblock's reserve_mem is preserved. - The 7 patch series "mm: Introduce for_each_valid_pfn()" from David Woodhouse provides and uses a smarter way of looping over a pfn range.

In a simple test case, the reduction of a guest VM's memory consumption was dramatic. - "Minor cleanups and improvements to swap freeing code" from Kemeng Shi provides some code cleaups and a small efficiency improvement to this part of our swap handling code. - "ptrace: introduce PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO API" from Dmitry Levin adds the ability for a ptracer to modify syscalls arguments. At this time we can alter only "system call information that are used by strace system call tampering, namely, syscall number, syscall arguments, and syscall return value. This series should have been incorporated into mm.git's "non-MM" branch, but I goofed. - "fs/proc: extend the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl to report guard regions" from Andrei Vagin extends the info returned by the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl against /proc/pid/pagemap. This permits CRIU to more efficiently get at the info about guard regions. - "Fix parameter passed to page_mapcount_is_type()" from Gavin Shan implements that fix. No runtime effect is expected because validate_page_before_insert() happens to fix up this error. - "kernel/events/uprobes: uprobe_write_opcode() rewrite" from David Hildenbrand basically brings uprobe text poking into the current decade. Remove a bunch of hand-rolled implementation in favor of using more current facilities. - "mm/ptdump: Drop assumption that pxd_val() is u64" from Anshuman Khandual provides enhancements and generalizations to the pte dumping code. This might be needed when 128-bit Page Table Descriptors are enabled for ARM. - "Always call constructor for kernel page tables" from Kevin Brodsky ensures that the ctor/dtor is always called for kernel pgtables, as it already is for user pgtables. This permits the addition of more functionality such as "insert hooks to protect page tables". This change does result in various architectures performing unnecesary work, but this is fixed up where it is anticipated to occur. - "Rust support for mm_struct, vm_area_struct, and mmap" from Alice Ryhl adds plumbing to permit Rust access to core MM structures. - "fix incorrectly disallowed anonymous VMA merges" from Lorenzo Stoakes takes advantage of some VMA merging opportunities which we've been missing for 15 years. - "mm/madvise: batch tlb flushes for MADV_DONTNEED and MADV_FREE" from SeongJae Park optimizes process_madvise()'s TLB flushing. Instead of flushing each address range in the provided iovec, we batch the flushing across all the iovec entries. The syscall's cost was approximately halved with a microbenchmark which was designed to load this particular operation. - "Track node vacancy to reduce worst case allocation counts" from Sidhartha Kumar makes the maple tree smarter about its node preallocation. stress-ng mmap performance increased by single-digit percentages and the amount of unnecessarily preallocated memory was dramaticelly reduced. - "mm/gup: Minor fix, cleanup and improvements" from Baoquan He removes a few unnecessary things which Baoquan noted when reading the code. - ""Enhance sysfs handling for memory hotplug in weighted interleave" from Rakie Kim "enhances the weighted interleave policy in the memory management subsystem by improving sysfs handling, fixing memory leaks, and introducing dynamic sysfs updates for memory hotplug support". Fixes things on error paths which we are unlikely to hit. - "mm/damon: auto-tune DAMOS for NUMA setups including tiered memory" from SeongJae Park introduces new DAMOS quota goal metrics which eliminate the manual tuning which is required when utilizing DAMON for memory tiering. - "mm/vmalloc.c: code cleanup and improvements" from Baoquan He provides cleanups and small efficiency improvements which Baoquan found via code inspection. - "vmscan: enforce mems_effective during demotion" from Gregory Price changes reclaim to respect cpuset.mems_effective during demotion when possible. because presently, reclaim explicitly ignores cpuset.mems_effective when demoting, which may cause the cpuset settings to violated. This is useful for isolating workloads on a multi-tenant system from certain classes of memory more consistently. - "Clean up split_huge_pmd_locked() and remove unnecessary folio pointers" from Gavin Guo provides minor cleanups and efficiency gains in in the huge page splitting and migrating code. - "Use kmem_cache for memcg alloc" from Huan Yang creates a slab cache for `struct mem_cgroup', yielding improved memory utilization. - "add max arg to swappiness in memory.reclaim and lru_gen" from Zhongkun He adds a new "max" argument to the "swappiness=" argument for memory.reclaim MGLRU's lru_gen. This directs proactive reclaim to reclaim from only anon folios rather than file-backed folios. - "kexec: introduce Kexec HandOver (KHO)" from Mike Rapoport is the first step on the path to permitting the kernel to maintain existing VMs while replacing the host kernel via file-based kexec. At this time only memblock's reserve_mem is preserved. - "mm: Introduce for_each_valid_pfn()" from David Woodhouse provides and uses a smarter way of looping over a pfn range.

arm64 updates for 6.16
ACPI, EFI and PSCI:
- Decouple Arm's "Software Delegated Exception Interface" (SDEI)
support from the ACPI GHES code so that it can be used by platforms
booted with device-tree.
- Remove unnecessary per-CPU tracking of the FPSIMD state across EFI
runtime calls.
- Fix a node refcount imbalance in the PSCI device-tree code.
CPU Features:
- Ensure register sanitisation is applied to fields in ID_AA64MMFR4.
- Expose AIDR_EL1 to userspace via sysfs, primarily so that KVM guests
can reliably query the underlying CPU types from the VMM.
- Re-enabling of SME support (CONFIG_ARM64_SME) as a result of fixes
to our context-switching, signal handling and ptrace code.
Entry code:
- Hook up TIF_NEED_RESCHED_LAZY so that CONFIG_PREEMPT_LAZY can be
selected.
Memory management:
- Prevent BSS exports from being used by the early PI code.
- Propagate level and stride information to the low-level TLB
invalidation routines when operating on hugetlb entries.
- Use the page-table contiguous hint for vmap() mappings with
VM_ALLOW_HUGE_VMAP where possible.
- Optimise vmalloc()/vmap() page-table updates to use "lazy MMU mode"
and hook this up on arm64 so that the trailing DSB (used to publish
the updates to the hardware walker) can be deferred until the end of
the mapping operation.
- Extend mmap() randomisation for 52-bit virtual addresses (on par with
48-bit addressing) and remove limited support for randomisation of
the linear map.
Perf and PMUs:
- Add support for probing the CMN-S3 driver using ACPI.
- Minor driver fixes to the CMN, Arm-NI and amlogic PMU drivers.
Selftests:
- Fix FPSIMD and SME tests to align with the freshly re-enabled SME
support.
- Fix default setting of the OUTPUT variable so that tests are
installed in the right location.
vDSO:
- Replace raw counter access from inline assembly code with a call to
the the __arch_counter_get_cntvct() helper function.
Miscellaneous:
- Add some missing header inclusions to the CCA headers.
- Rework rendering of /proc/cpuinfo to follow the x86-approach and
avoid repeated buffer expansion (the user-visible format remains
identical).
- Remove redundant selection of CONFIG_CRC32
- Extend early error message when failing to map the device-tree blob.

When purge lazily freed vmap areas, VA stored in vn->pool[] will also be taken away into free vmap tree partially or completely accordingly, that is done in decay_va_pool_node(). When doing that, for each pool of node, the whole list is detached from the pool for handling. At this time, that pool is empty. It's not necessary to update the pool size each time when one VA is removed and addded into free vmap tree. Here change code to update the pool size when attaching the pool back.

mm/vmalloc.c: find the vmap of vmap_nodes in reverse order
When finding VA in vn->busy, if VA spans several zones and the passed addr
is not the same as va->va_start, we should scan the vn in reverse odrdr
because the starting address of VA must be smaller than the passed addr if
it really resides in the VA.
E.g on a system nr_vmap_nodes=100,
<----va---->
-|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-
... n-1 n n+1 n+2 ... 100 0 1
VA resides in node 'n' whereas it spans 'n', 'n+1' and 'n+2'. If passed
addr is within 'n+2', we should try nodes backwards on 'n+1' and 'n', then
succeed very soon.
Meanwhile we still need loop around because VA could spans node from 'n'
to node 100, node 0, node 1.
Anyway, changing to find in reverse order can improve efficiency on many
CPUs system.
