- The 18 patch series "Live Update Orchestrator" from Pasha Tatashin is
a major new feature targeted at cloud environments. Quoting the [0/N]:
This series introduces the Live Update Orchestrator, a kernel subsystem
designed to facilitate live kernel updates using a kexec-based reboot.
This capability is critical for cloud environments, allowing hypervisors
to be updated with minimal downtime for running virtual machines. LUO
achieves this by preserving the state of selected resources, such as
memory, devices and their dependencies, across the kernel transition.
As a key feature, this series includes support for preserving memfd file
descriptors, which allows critical in-memory data, such as guest RAM or
any other large memory region, to be maintained in RAM across the kexec
reboot.
Mike Rappaport merits a mention here, for his extensive review and
testing work.
- The 3 patch series "kexec: reorganize kexec and kdump sysfs" from
Sourabh Jain moves the kexec and kdump sysfs entries from /sys/kernel/
to /sys/kernel/kexec/ and adds back-compatibility symlinks which can
hopefully be removed one day.
- The 2 patch series "kho: fixes for vmalloc restoration" from Mike
Rapoport fixes a BUG which was being hit during KHO restoration of
vmalloc() regions.

selftests/mm: add test for invalid multi VMA operations
We can use UFFD to easily assert invalid multi VMA moves, so do so, asserting expected behaviour when VMAs invalid for a multi VMA operation are encountered. We assert both that such operations are not permitted, and that we do not even attempt to move the first VMA under these circumstances. We also assert that we can still move a single VMA regardless. We then assert that a partial failure can occur if the invalid VMA appears later in the range of multiple VMAs, both at the very next VMA, and also at the end of the range. As part of this change, we are using the is_range_valid() helper more aggressively. Therefore, fix a bug where stale buffered data would hang around on success, causing subsequent calls to is_range_valid() to potentially give invalid results. We simply have to fflush() the stream on success to resolve this issue.

tools/testing/selftests: explicitly test split multi VMA mremap move
Check that moving a range of VMAs where we are offset into the first and last VMAs works correctly. This results in the VMAs being split at these points at which we are offset into VMAs. We explicitly test both the ordinary MREMAP_FIXED multi VMA move case and the MREMAP_DONTUNMAP multi VMA move case.

tools/testing/selftests: test MREMAP_DONTUNMAP on multiple VMA move
We support MREMAP_MAYMOVE | MREMAP_FIXED | MREMAP_DONTUNMAP for moving multiple VMAs via mremap(), so assert that the tests pass with both MREMAP_DONTUNMAP set and not set. Additionally, add success = false settings when mremap() fails. This is something that cannot realistically happen, so in no way impacted test outcome, but it is incorrect to indicate a test pass when something has failed.

tools/testing/selftests: add mremap() shrink test for multiple VMAs
Patch series "tools/testing: expand mremap testing". Expand our mremap() testing to further assert that behaviour is as expected. There is a poorly documented mremap() feature whereby it is possible to mremap() multiple VMAs (even with gaps) when shrinking, as long as the resultant shrunk range spans only a single VMA. So we start by asserting this behaviour functions correctly both with an in-place shrink and a shrink/move. Next, we further test the newly introduced ability to mremap() multiple VMAs when performing a MAP_FIXED move (that is without the size being changed), firstly by asserting that MREMAP_DONTUNMAP has no bearing on this behaviour. Finally, we explicitly test that such moves, when splitting source VMAs, function correctly. This patch (of 3): There is an apparently little-known feature of mremap() whereby, in stark contrast to other modes (other than the recently introduced capacity to move multiple VMAs), the input source range span multiple VMAs with gaps between. This is, when shrinking a VMA, whether moving it or not, and the shrink would reduce the range to a single VMA - this is permitted, as the shrink is actioned by an unmap. This patch adds tests to assert that this behaves as expected.

minmax: make generic MIN() and MAX() macros available everywhere
This just standardizes the use of MIN() and MAX() macros, with the very traditional semantics. The goal is to use these for C constant expressions and for top-level / static initializers, and so be able to simplify the min()/max() macros. These macro names were used by various kernel code - they are very traditional, after all - and all such users have been fixed up, with a few different approaches: - trivial duplicated macro definitions have been removed Note that 'trivial' here means that it's obviously kernel code that already included all the major kernel headers, and thus gets the new generic MIN/MAX macros automatically. - non-trivial duplicated macro definitions are guarded with #ifndef This is the "yes, they define their own versions, but no, the include situation is not entirely obvious, and maybe they don't get the generic version automatically" case. - strange use case #1 A couple of drivers decided that the way they want to describe their versioning is with #define MAJ 1 #define MIN 2 #define DRV_VERSION __stringify(MAJ) "." __stringify(MIN) which adds zero value and I just did my Alexander the Great impersonation, and rewrote that pointless Gordian knot as #define DRV_VERSION "1.2" instead. - strange use case #2 A couple of drivers thought that it's a good idea to have a random 'MIN' or 'MAX' define for a value or index into a table, rather than the traditional macro that takes arguments. These values were re-written as C enum's instead. The new function-line macros only expand when followed by an open parenthesis, and thus don't clash with enum use. Happily, there weren't really all that many of these cases, and a lot of users already had the pattern of using '#ifndef' guarding (or in one case just using '#undef MIN') before defining their own private version that does the same thing. I left such cases alone. Cc: David Laight <David.Laight@aculab.com> Cc: Lorenzo Stoakes <lorenzo.stoakes@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> |

Mismatch index is currently being checked by a brute force iteration over the buffer.

Do a brute-force iteration to print to stdout only when the highly optimized memcmp() library function returns a mismatch in the chunk. The time complexity of this algorithm is O(sqrt(n)) * t, where t is the time taken by memcmp(); for our test conditions, it is safe to assume t to be small.

selftests/mm: mremap_test: optimize using pre-filled random array and memcpy
Patch series "selftests/mm: mremap_test: Optimizations and style fixes". The mremap_test, in a worst case controlled by the -t flag, does a for loop iteration in orders of GB. Without compromising on the stdout report, the aim is to reduce this time. A pre-filled random buffer is allocated based on the seed, replacing repetitive rand() calls. The byte pattern in the memory locations is set through memcpy() from the random buffer. Replacing the loop for printing the mismatch index to stdout, employ an efficient algorithm by breaking the comparison into chunks, use the highly optimized memcmp() library function, and when a mismatch does occur, only then do a brute force iteration. Also, use sscanf() to parse /proc/self/maps for consistency across files. Execution time results (x86 system): ./mremap_test Original: 3 seconds After change: 0.8 seconds ./mremap_test -t100 Original: 17 seconds After change: 2 seconds ./mremap_test -t0 (worst case): Original: 9:40 minutes After change: 45 seconds This patch (of 3): Allocate a pre-filled random buffer using the seed.

selftests/mm: Substitute attribute with a macro
Compiling mm selftest after adding a __printf() attribute to ksft_print_msg() exposes -Wformat warning in remap_region(). Fix the wrong format specifier causing the warning. The mm selftest uses the printf attribute in its full form. Since the header file that uses it also includes kselftests.h it can use the macro defined there. Use __printf() included with kselftests.h instead of the full attribute. Signed-off-by: Maciej Wieczor-Retman <maciej.wieczor-retman@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Shuah Khan <skhan@linuxfoundation.org> |

selftests: mm: add a test for moving from an offset from start of mapping
It is possible that the aligned address falls on no existing mapping, however that does not mean that we can just align it down to that. This test verifies that the "vma->vm_start != addr_to_align" check in can_align_down() prevents disastrous results if aligning down when source and dest are mutually aligned within a PMD but the source/dest addresses requested are not at the beginning of the respective mapping containing these addresses.

selftests: mm: add a test for remapping to area immediately after existing mapping
This patch adds support for verifying that we correctly handle the
situation where something is already mapped before the destination of the remap.
Any realignment of destination address and PMD-copy will destroy that
existing mapping. In such cases, we need to avoid doing the optimization.
To test this, we map an area called the preamble before the remap
region. Then we verify after the mremap operation that this region did not get
corrupted.
Putting some prints in the kernel, I verified that we optimize
correctly in different situations:
Optimize when there is alignment and no previous mapping (this is tested
by previous patch).
<prints>
can_align_down(old_vma->vm_start=2900000, old_addr=2900000, mask=-2097152): 0
can_align_down(new_vma->vm_start=2f00000, new_addr=2f00000, mask=-2097152): 0

Doing PUD move for 2c00000 -> 3200000 of extent=200000
</prints>
Don't optimize when there is alignment but there is previous mapping
(this is tested by this patch).
Notice that can_align_down() returns 1 for the destination mapping
as we detected there is something there.

selftests: mm: add a test for mutually aligned moves > PMD size
This patch adds a test case to check if a PMD-alignment optimization successfully happens. I add support to make sure there is some room before the source mapping, otherwise the optimization to trigger PMD-aligned move will be disabled as the kernel will detect that a mapping before the source exists and such optimization becomes impossible.

selftest/vm: add mremap expand merge offset test
Add a test to assert that we can mremap() and expand a mapping starting from an offset within an existing mapping. We unmap the last page in a 3 page mapping to ensure that the remap should always succeed, before remapping from the 2nd page. This is additionally a regression test for the issue solved in "mm, mremap: fix mremap() expanding vma with addr inside vma" and confirmed to fail prior to the change and pass after it. Finally, this patch updates the existing mremap expand merge test to check error conditions and reduce code duplication between the two tests.
