a1b114b4ce mm/Kconfig: make MEMORY_FAILURE select MIGRATION
For embedded devices, lacking support for NUMA, memory hotplug/hotremove,
CMA and huge pages is a quite common scenario.  In this scenario, the
demand for contiguous physical memory allocation is very low.  To reduce
the kernel image size, some devices disable the compaction.  However,
their SoCs do support DDR ECC, meaning that memory-failure may be needed.

Migration is very useful for soft_offline_page() in memory-failure, which
may be triggered by correctable memory errors.  Most anonymous and
file-mapped faulty pages can be migrated to other healthy pages.

Currently, MEMORY_FAILURE does not explicitly select MIGRATION.  When
COMPACTION, MEMORY_HOTREMOVE, NUMA_MIGRATION and CMA are all disabled,
MEMORY_FAILURE can be enabled, but MIGRATION cannot be selected.

Make MEMORY_FAILURE select MIGRATION to handle this situation.

3774c56cc3 drivers/base, mm: move arch_numa.c to mm/
arch_numa.c implements boot time discovery and initialization of NUMA
topology on architectures that select GENERIC_ARCH_NUMA (currently arm64
and riscv).

Since this is step in the initialization of the memory management
subsystem, it's logical to have arch_numa.c in mm/ alongside numa.c,
numa_memblks.c and numa_emulation.c.

Move arch_numa.c to mm/ and add its F: entry to "MEMBLOCK AND MEMORY
MANAGEMENT INITIALIZATION" in MAINTAINERS.

34568000f3 mm/Kconfig: make FLATMEM depend on !NUMA
Patch series "mm/page_ext: remove pgdat_page_ext_init()", v2.

pgdat_page_ext_init() has no effect on FLATMEM. The pgdat is always
the zero-initialized contig_page_data, because no architecture
supports FLATMEM + NUMA.

That constraint is only implicit in the arch Kconfig files. So patch 1
makes it explicit in mm/Kconfig, and patch 2 removes pgdat_page_ext_init().

No functional change.


This patch (of 2):

FLATMEM + NUMA is not supported by any architecture and fails to build. 
The constraint is only implicit in the arch Kconfig files.

So make it explicit in mm/Kconfig.

No functional change.

0b4268ac77 mm/kconfig: drop redundant dependency wrappers
Some mm Kconfig entries repeat dependencies that are already expressed by
their surrounding blocks or menus.

The zsmalloc allocator options menu already depends on ZSMALLOC, so the
outer if ZSMALLOC block does not add any extra constraint. 
MEMORY_HOTREMOVE and MHP_MEMMAP_ON_MEMORY are both inside the if
MEMORY_HOTPLUG block, so their local depends on MEMORY_HOTPLUG entries are
redundant.

PTE_MARKER_UFFD_WP is the only entry under if USERFAULTFD.  Move the
USERFAULTFD dependency into the symbol itself and combine it with the
architecture support dependency.

This keeps the same visibility and defaults while avoiding duplicate
dependency expressions.

1eba458a54 mm/kconfig: drop redundant memory hotplug dependencies
MHP_MEMMAP_ON_MEMORY is defined inside the MEMORY_HOTPLUG block, and
MEMORY_HOTPLUG already depends on SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP.  Keep the explicit
MEMORY_HOTPLUG dependency for local readability, but drop the redundant
SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP dependency.

ZONE_DEVICE depends on MEMORY_HOTREMOVE, which depends on MEMORY_HOTPLUG. 
MEMORY_HOTPLUG in turn depends on SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP.  Drop the direct
MEMORY_HOTPLUG and SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP dependencies from ZONE_DEVICE.

This does not change the set of valid configurations.

cf6daf2493 mm/hmm: make CONFIG_HMM_MIRROR select CONFIG_MMU_NOTIFIER
hmm doesn't currently build well with MMU_NOTIFIER=n:

With microblaze
https://download.01.org/0day-ci/archive/20260702/202607021433.DYT5fDqE-lkp@intel.com/config
(CONFIG_MMU_NOTIFIER=n):

mm/hmm.c: In function 'hmm_range_fault_unlocked_timeout':
mm/hmm.c:804:25: error: implicit declaration of function 'mmu_interval_read_begin'; did you mean 'mmu_interval_check_retry'? [-Wimplicit-function-declaration]
  804 |                         mmu_interval_read_begin(range->notifier);
      |                         ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
      |                         mmu_interval_check_retry

Quoting Stanislav:

:  Documentation/mm/hmm.rst explicitly states:
: 
:  "Address space mirroring's main objective is to allow duplication of a
:  range of CPU page table into a device page table; HMM helps keep both
:  synchronized.  A device driver that wants to mirror a process address
:  space must start with the registration of a mmu_interval_notifier"
: 
:  I think making CONFIG_HMM_MIRROR dependent on the CONFIG_MMU_NOTIFIER
:  is the right thing to do.

So select MMU_NOTIFIER if hmm.c is to be compiled.

6eab8f2cc6 userfaultfd: add UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_RWP and UFFDIO_RWPROTECT plumbing
Add the userspace interface for read-write protection tracking:

  - UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_RWP      register a range for RWP tracking
  - UFFD_FEATURE_RWP              capability bit
  - UFFDIO_RWPROTECT              install / remove RWP on a range

Introduce CONFIG_USERFAULTFD_RWP, auto-selected on 64-bit kernels with
ARCH_HAS_PTE_PROTNONE and HAVE_ARCH_USERFAULTFD_WP.  The symbol gates
VM_UFFD_RWP (previously aliased to VM_NONE) and the smaps/trace-flag hooks
added in the preparatory patches; without it the UAPI bits added here have
nothing to drive and would be unreachable.

Registration sets VM_UFFD_RWP on the VMA.  Combining MODE_WP with MODE_RWP
is rejected because both modes claim the uffd PTE bit.

UFFDIO_RWPROTECT is the bidirectional counterpart of
UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT:

  - MODE_RWP              change_protection() with MM_CP_UFFD_RWP
                          installs PAGE_NONE and sets the uffd bit on
                          present PTEs
  - !MODE_RWP             change_protection() with MM_CP_UFFD_RWP_RESOLVE
                          restores vma->vm_page_prot and clears the bit

userfaultfd_clear_vma() runs the same resolve pass on unregister so RWP
state cannot outlive the uffd.

Re-registering a range must not drop a mode that installs per-PTE markers
(WP or RWP); doing so returns -EBUSY.  This also closes a pre-existing
window where re-registering without MODE_WP would strand uffd-wp markers:
before, those caused extra write-faults but were otherwise benign; with
RWP preservation in place, a subsequent mprotect() on a VM_UFFD_RWP VMA
would silently promote the stale markers to RWP.

The feature is not yet advertised.  UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_RWP,
UFFD_FEATURE_RWP, and _UFFDIO_RWPROTECT are intentionally absent from
UFFD_API_REGISTER_MODES, UFFD_API_FEATURES, and UFFD_API_RANGE_IOCTLS, so
UFFDIO_API masks them out and the register-mode validator rejects the bit.
The follow-up patch adds fault dispatch and exposes the UAPI.

d547b10017 mm: rename ARCH_ENABLE_THP_MIGRATION to ARCH_HAS_PMD_SOFTLEAVES
CONFIG_ARCH_ENABLE_THP_MIGRATION gates PMD-level migration entries. 
PMD-level device-private entries use the same migration mechanism and
therefore require the same architecture support.

Upcoming PMD-level swap entries can use the same PMD softleaf helpers
without depending on page migration, so rename the architecture gate to
CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_PMD_SOFTLEAVES.  This describes the PMD entry capability
rather than one current user of it.

This is a pure rename: the set of selecting architectures (x86, arm64,
s390, riscv, loongarch, and powerpc on PPC_BOOK3S_64) and the gating
semantics are unchanged.

No functional change intended.

e4df0f37bd mm: remove READ_ONLY_THP_FOR_FS Kconfig option
After removing READ_ONLY_THP_FOR_FS check in file_thp_enabled(),
khugepaged and MADV_COLLAPSE can run on FSes with PMD THP pagecache
support even without READ_ONLY_THP_FOR_FS enabled.  Remove the Kconfig
first so that no one can use READ_ONLY_THP_FOR_FS as upcoming commits
remove mapping->nr_thps, which its safe guard mechanism relies on.

 Patchsets in this merge:
 
 - The 2 patch series "selftests/mm: clean up build output and verbosity"
   from Li Wang removes some noise from the MM selftests build out.
 
 - The 3 patch series "mm: Free contiguous order-0 pages efficiently"
   from Ryan Roberts speeds up the freeing of a batch of 0-order pages by
   first scanning them for coalescing opportunities.  This is applicable to
   vfree() and to the releasing of frozen pages.
 
 - The 11 patch series "mm/damon: introduce DAMOS failed region quota
   charge ratio" from SeongJae Park addresses a DAMOS usability issue: The
   DAMOS quota often exhausts prematurely because it charges for all memory
   attempted, causing slow and inconsistent performance when actions fail
   on unreclaimable memory.
 
   To fix this, a new feature lets users set a smaller, flexible quota
   charge ratio (via a numerator and denominator) for failed regions.
   Since failed actions cause less overhead, reducing their quota cost
   ensures more predictable and efficient DAMOS processing
 
 - The 8 patch series "selftests/cgroup: improve zswap tests robustness
   and support large page sizes" from Li Wang fixes various spurious
   failures and improves the overall robustness of the cgroup zswap
   selftests.
 
 - The 3 patch series "fix MAP_DROPPABLE not supported errno" from
   Anthony Yznaga fixes an issue in the mlock selftests on arm32.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm: huge_memory: clean up defrag sysfs with
   shared" from Breno Leitao does some maintenance work in the huge_memory
   code.
 
 - The 3 patch series "treewide: fixup gfp_t printks" from Brendan
   Jackman uses the special vprintf() gfp_t conversion in various places.
 
 - The 6 patch series "mm: Fix vmemmap optimization accounting and
   initialization" from Muchun Song fixes several bugs in the vmemmap
   optimization, mainly around incorrect page accounting and memmap
   initialization in the DAX and memory hotplug paths.  It also fixes
   pageblock migratetype initialization and struct page initialization for
   ZONE_DEVICE compound pages.
 
 - The 4 patch series "mm/damon: repost non-hotfix reviewed patches in
   damon/next tree" from is a sprinkle of unrelated minor bugfixes for
   DAMON.
 
 - The 3 patch series "mm: remove page_mapped()" from David Hildenbrand
   remove this function from the tree, replacing it with folio_mapped().
 
 - The 10 patch series "mm/damon: let DAMON be paused and resumed" from
   SeongJae Park permits DAMON to be paused and resumed without losing its
   current state.
 
 - The 3 patch series "kasan: hw_tags: Disable tagging for stack and
   page-tables" from Muhammad Usama Anjum simplifies and speeds up kasan by
   removing its ineffective tagging of stacks and page tables.
 
 - The 7 patch series "mm/damon/reclaim,lru_sort: monitor all system rams
   by default" from SeongJae Park simplifies deployment on diverse hardware
   like NUMA systems by updating DAMON_RECLAIM and DAMON_LRU_SORT to
   automatically monitor the physical address range covering all System RAM
   areas by default, replacing the overly restrictive behavior that only
   targeted the single largest memory block to save on negligible overhead.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/damon/sysfs: document filters/ directory as
   deprecated" from SeongJae Park updates some DAMON docs.
 
 - The 8 patch series "mm: use spinlock guards for zone lock" from Dmitry
   Ilvokhin switches zone->lock handling over to using the guard()
   mechanisms.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/filemap: tighten mmap_miss hit accounting" from
   fujunjie fixes a flaw where the mmap_miss counter over-credited page
   cache hits during fault-arounds and page-fault retries.  This results in
   significant reduction of redundant synchronous mmap readahead I/O,
   drastically cutting down execution time and gigabytes read for sparse
   random or strided memory access workloads.
 
 - The 2 patch series "selftests/cgroup: Fix false positive failures in
   test_percpu_basic" from Li Wang fixes a couple of false-positives in the
   cgroup kmem selftests.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/damon/reclaim: support monitoring intervals
   auto-tuning" from SeongJae Park adds a new parameter to DAMON permitting
   DAMON_RECLAIM to automatically tune DAMON's sampling and aggregation
   intervals.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/damon/stat: add kdamond_pid parameter" from
   SeongJae Park chnges DAMON_STAT to provide the pid of its kdamond.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/kmemleak: dedupe verbose scan output" from
   Breno Leitao removes large amounts of duplicated backtraces from the
   verbose-mode kmemleak output.
 
 - The 8 patch series "mm: remove CONFIG_HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE (Part 1)"
   from David Hildenbrand reduces our use of CONFIG_HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE,
   with a view to removing it entirely in a later series.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/damon: validate min_region_size to be power of
   2" from Liew Rui Yan prevents users from passing a non-power-of-2 value
   of `addr_unit', as this later results in undesirable behavior.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm: document read_pages and simplify usage" from
   Frederick Mayle does as claimed.
 
 - The 3 patch series "tools/mm/page-types: Fix misc bugs" from Ye Liu
   fixes three issues in tools/mm/page-types.c.
 
 - The 4 patch series "mm: misc cleanups from __GFP_UNMAPPED series" from
   Brendan Jackman implements several cleanups in the page allocator and
   related code.
 
 - The 12 patch series "mm, swap: swap table phase IV: unify allocation"
   from Kairui Song unifies the allocation and charging of anon and shmem
   swap in folios, provides better synchronization, consolidates the
   metadata management, hence dropping the static array and map, and
   improves performance.
 
 - The 28 patch series "mm/damon: introduce data attributes monitoring"
   from SeongJae Park extends DAMON for monitoring general data attributes
   other than accesses.
 
 - The 5 patch series "mm/vmalloc: free unused pages on vrealloc()
   shrink" from Shivam Kalra implements the TODO in vrealloc() to unmap and
   free unused pages when shrinking across a page boundary.
 
 - The 3 patch series "mm/damon: documentation and comment fixes" from
   niecheng does as advertised.
 
 - The 3 patch series "remove mmap_action success, error hooks" from
   Lorenzo Stoakes eliminates custom hooks from mmap_action by removing the
   problematic success_hook which allowed drivers to improperly access
   uninitialized VMAs.  It replaces the error_hook with a simple error-code
   field and updates the memory char driver accordingly.
 
 - The 14 patch series "mm/damon: minor improvements for code readability
   and tests" from SeongJae Park implements minor improvements in code
   readability and tests for DAMON.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/damon: fix macro arguments and clarify quota
   goals doc" from Maksym Shcherba does those things.
 
 - The 2 patch series "userfaultfd: merge fs/userfaultfd.c into
   mm/userfaultfd.c" from Mike Rapoport performs that code movement.
 
 - The 15 patch series "mm/mglru: improve reclaim loop and dirty folio"
   from Kairui Song and others cleans up and slightly improves MGLRU's
   reclaim loop and dirty writeback handling.  Large performance
   improvements are measured.
 
 - The 3 patch series "use vma locks for proc/pid/{smaps|numa_maps}
   reads" from Suren Baghdasaryan uses per-vma locks when reading
   /proc/pid/smaps and /proc/pid/numa_maps similar to reduce contention on
   central mmap_lock.
 
 - The 2 patch series "refactors thpsize_shmem_enabled_store() and
   thpsize_shmem_enabled_show()" from Ran Xiaokai provides some cleanup
   work in the THP code.
 
 - The 2 patch series "selftests/memfd: fix compilation warnings" from
   Konstantin Khorenko fixes a few build glitches in the memfd selftest
   code.
 
 - The 4 patch series "memcg: shrink obj_stock_pcp and cache multiple
   objcgs" from Shakeel Butt resolves a 68% performance regression caused
   by NUMA-node cache thrashing around struct obj_stock_pcp by shrinking
   its existing fields and expanding it into a multi-slot array that caches
   up to five obj_cgroup pointers per CPU, allowing per-node variants of
   the same memcg to coexist within a single 64-byte cache line.
 
 - The 2 patch series "zram: writeback fixes" from Sergey Senozhatsky
   addresses a couple of unrelated zram writeback issues.
 
 - The 9 patch series "mm: switch THP shrinker to list_lru" from Johannes
   Weiner resolves NUMA-awareness issues and streamlines callsite
   interaction by refactoring and extending the list_lru API to completely
   replace the complex, open-coded deferred split queue for Transparent
   Huge Pages (THPs).
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm: improve large folio readahead for exec memory"
   from Usama Arif improves large-folio readahead on systems like 64K-page
   arm64 by preventing the mmap_miss check from permanently disabling
   target-oriented VM_EXEC readahead, and by generalizing the
   force_thp_readahead gate to support mappings with any usefully large
   maximum folio order under the cache cap.
 
 - The 6 patch series "userfaultfd/pagemap: pre-existing fixes" from
   Kiryl Shutsemau fixes a bunch of minor issues in the
   userfaultfd/pagemap, all of which were flagged by Sashiko review of
   proposed new material.
 
 - The 5 patch series "mm/sparse-vmemmap: Provide generic
   vmemmap_set_pmd() and vmemmap_check_pmd()" from Muchun Song provides
   generic versions of these two functions so the four arch-specific
   implementations can be removed.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/swap, PM: hibernate: fix swapoff race in
   uswsusp by pinning swap device" from Youngjun Park addresses a
   uswsusp-vs-swapoff race and reduces the swap device reference
   taking/releasing frequency.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/hmm: A fix and a selftest" from Dev Jain does
   as claimed.

14d1948fa2 powerpc/mm: remove CONFIG_HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE
register_page_bootmem_info_node() essentially only calls
register_page_bootmem_memmap(). However, on powerpc that function is a
nop. So there is not benefit in using CONFIG_HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE
anymore, let's just drop it.

We can stop including bootmem_info.h.

97bd80a918 treewide: fix indentation and whitespace in Kconfig files
Clean up inconsistent indentation (mixing tabs and spaces) and remove
extraneous whitespace in several Kconfig files across the tree.  This is a
purely cosmetic change to improve readability.

Adjust indentation from spaces to tab (+optional two spaces) as in
coding style with command like:

$ sed -e 's/^        /\t/' -i */Kconfig

b9fe373e7d mm/thp: dead code cleanup in Kconfig
There is already an 'if TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE' condition wrapping several
config options e.g.  'READ_ONLY_THP_FOR_FS', making the 'depends on'
statement for each of these a duplicate dependency (dead code).

I propose leaving the outer 'if TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE...endif' and removing
the individual 'depends on TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE' statement from each
option.

This dead code was found by kconfirm, a static analysis tool for Kconfig.

feb662d916 slab: support for compiler-assisted type-based slab cache partitioning
Rework the general infrastructure around RANDOM_KMALLOC_CACHES into more
flexible KMALLOC_PARTITION_CACHES, with the former being a partitioning
mode of the latter.

Introduce a new mode, KMALLOC_PARTITION_TYPED, which leverages a feature
available in Clang 22 and later, called "allocation tokens" via
__builtin_infer_alloc_token() [1]. Unlike KMALLOC_PARTITION_RANDOM
(formerly RANDOM_KMALLOC_CACHES), this mode deterministically assigns a
slab cache to an allocation of type T, regardless of allocation site.

The builtin __builtin_infer_alloc_token(<malloc-args>, ...) instructs
the compiler to infer an allocation type from arguments commonly passed
to memory-allocating functions and returns a type-derived token ID. The
implementation passes kmalloc-args to the builtin: the compiler performs
best-effort type inference, and then recognizes common patterns such as
`kmalloc(sizeof(T), ...)`, `kmalloc(sizeof(T) * n, ...)`, but also
`(T *)kmalloc(...)`. Where the compiler fails to infer a type the
fallback token (default: 0) is chosen.

Note: kmalloc_obj(..) APIs fix the pattern how size and result type are
expressed, and therefore ensures there's not much drift in which
patterns the compiler needs to recognize. Specifically, kmalloc_obj()
and friends expand to `(TYPE *)KMALLOC(__obj_size, GFP)`, which the
compiler recognizes via the cast to TYPE*.

Clang's default token ID calculation is described as [1]:

   typehashpointersplit: This mode assigns a token ID based on the hash
   of the allocated type's name, where the top half ID-space is reserved
   for types that contain pointers and the bottom half for types that do
   not contain pointers.

Separating pointer-containing objects from pointerless objects and data
allocations can help mitigate certain classes of memory corruption
exploits [2]: attackers who gains a buffer overflow on a primitive
buffer cannot use it to directly corrupt pointers or other critical
metadata in an object residing in a different, isolated heap region.

It is important to note that heap isolation strategies offer a
best-effort approach, and do not provide a 100% security guarantee,
albeit achievable at relatively low performance cost. Note that this
also does not prevent cross-cache attacks: while waiting for future
features like SLAB_VIRTUAL [3] to provide physical page isolation, this
feature should be deployed alongside SHUFFLE_PAGE_ALLOCATOR and
init_on_free=1 to mitigate cross-cache attacks and page-reuse attacks as
much as possible today.

With all that, my kernel (x86 defconfig) shows me a histogram of slab
cache object distribution per /proc/slabinfo (after boot):

  <slab cache>      <objs> <hist>
  kmalloc-part-15    1465  ++++++++++++++
  kmalloc-part-14    2988  +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
  kmalloc-part-13    1656  ++++++++++++++++
  kmalloc-part-12    1045  ++++++++++
  kmalloc-part-11    1697  ++++++++++++++++
  kmalloc-part-10    1489  ++++++++++++++
  kmalloc-part-09     965  +++++++++
  kmalloc-part-08     710  +++++++
  kmalloc-part-07     100  +
  kmalloc-part-06     217  ++
  kmalloc-part-05     105  +
  kmalloc-part-04    4047  ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
  kmalloc-part-03     183  +
  kmalloc-part-02     283  ++
  kmalloc-part-01     316  +++
  kmalloc            1422  ++++++++++++++

The above /proc/slabinfo snapshot shows me there are 6673 allocated
objects (slabs 00 - 07) that the compiler claims contain no pointers or
it was unable to infer the type of, and 12015 objects that contain
pointers (slabs 08 - 15). On a whole, this looks relatively sane.

Additionally, when I compile my kernel with -Rpass=alloc-token, which
provides diagnostics where (after dead-code elimination) type inference
failed, I see 186 allocation sites where the compiler failed to identify
a type (down from 966 when I sent the RFC [4]). Some initial review
confirms these are mostly variable sized buffers, but also include
structs with trailing flexible length arrays.

6ebf98d71f mm: introduce CONFIG_NUMA_MIGRATION and simplify CONFIG_MIGRATION
CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE, CONFIG_COMPACTION and CONFIG_CMA all select
CONFIG_MIGRATION, because they require it to work (users).

Only CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING and CONFIG_BALLOON_MIGRATION depend on
CONFIG_MIGRATION.  CONFIG_BALLOON_MIGRATION is not an actual user, but an
implementation of migration support, so the dependency is correct
(CONFIG_BALLOON_MIGRATION does not make any sense without
CONFIG_MIGRATION).

However, kconfig-language.rst clearly states "In general use select only
for non-visible symbols".  So far CONFIG_MIGRATION is user-visible ... 
and the dependencies rather confusing.

The whole reason why CONFIG_MIGRATION is user-visible is because of
CONFIG_NUMA: some users might want CONFIG_NUMA but not page migration
support.

Let's clean all that up by introducing a dedicated CONFIG_NUMA_MIGRATION
config option for that purpose only.  Make CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING that so
far depended on CONFIG_NUMA && CONFIG_MIGRATION to depend on
CONFIG_MIGRATION instead.  CONFIG_NUMA_MIGRATION will depend on
CONFIG_NUMA && CONFIG_MMU.

CONFIG_NUMA_MIGRATION is user-visible and will default to "y".  We use
that default so new configs will automatically enable it, just like it was
the case with CONFIG_MIGRATION.  The downside is that some configs that
used to have CONFIG_MIGRATION=n might get it re-enabled by
CONFIG_NUMA_MIGRATION=y, which shouldn't be a problem.

CONFIG_MIGRATION is now a non-visible config option.  Any code that select
CONFIG_MIGRATION (as before) must depend directly or indirectly on
CONFIG_MMU.

CONFIG_NUMA_MIGRATION is responsible for any NUMA migration code, which is
mempolicy migration code, memory-tiering code, and move_pages() code in
migrate.c.  CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING uses its functionality.

Note that this implies that with CONFIG_NUMA_MIGRATION=n, move_pages()
will not be available even though CONFIG_MIGRATION=y, which is an expected
change.

In migrate.c, we can remove the CONFIG_NUMA check as both
CONFIG_NUMA_MIGRATION and CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING depend on it.

With this change, CONFIG_MIGRATION is an internal config, all users of
migration selects CONFIG_MIGRATION, and only CONFIG_BALLOON_MIGRATION
depends on it.

078f80f909 mm: remove CONFIG_ARCH_ENABLE_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE
Patch series "mm: remove CONFIG_ARCH_ENABLE_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE and cleanup
CONFIG_MIGRATION".

While working on memory hotplug code cleanups, I realized that
CONFIG_ARCH_ENABLE_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE is not really required anymore.

Changing that revealed some rather nasty looking CONFIG_MIGRATION
handling.

Let's clean that up by introducing a dedicated CONFIG_NUMA_MIGRATION
option and reducing the dependencies that CONFIG_MIGRATION has.


This patch (of 2):

All architectures that select CONFIG_ARCH_ENABLE_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE also
select CONFIG_ARCH_ENABLE_MEMORY_HOTPLUG.  So we can just remove
CONFIG_ARCH_ENABLE_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE.

For CONFIG_MIGRATION, make it depend on CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE instead,
and make CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE select CONFIG_MIGRATION (just like
CONFIG_CMA and CONFIG_COMPACTION already do).

We'll clean up CONFIG_MIGRATION next.

fb3c3f5d27 mm/Kconfig: make CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG depend on CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP
Ever since commit f8f03eb5f0 ("mm: stop making SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP
user-selectable"), an architecture that supports CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP
(by selecting SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP_ENABLE) can no longer enable
CONFIG_SPARSEMEM without CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP.

Right now, CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG is guarded by CONFIG_SPARSEMEM.

However, CONFIG_ARCH_ENABLE_MEMORY_HOTPLUG is only enabled by
* arm64: which selects SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP_ENABLE
* loongarch: which selects SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP_ENABLE
* powerpc (64bit): which selects SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP_ENABLE
* riscv (64bit): which selects SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP_ENABLE
* s390 with SPARSEMEM: which selects SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP_ENABLE
* x86 (64bit): which selects SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP_ENABLE

So, we can make CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG depend on CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP
without affecting any setups.

17a9399a61 slab,rcu: disable KVFREE_RCU_BATCHED for strict grace period
Disable CONFIG_KVFREE_RCU_BATCHED in CONFIG_RCU_STRICT_GRACE_PERIOD builds
so that kernel fuzzers have an easier time finding use-after-free involving
kfree_rcu().

The intent behind CONFIG_RCU_STRICT_GRACE_PERIOD is that RCU should invoke
callbacks and free objects as soon as possible (at a large performance
cost) so that kernel fuzzers and such have an easier time detecting
use-after-free bugs in objects with RCU lifetime.

CONFIG_KVFREE_RCU_BATCHED is a performance optimization that queues
RCU-freed objects in ways that CONFIG_RCU_STRICT_GRACE_PERIOD can't
expedite; for example, the following testcase doesn't trigger a KASAN splat
when CONFIG_KVFREE_RCU_BATCHED is enabled:
```
struct foo_struct {
  struct rcu_head rcu;
  int a;
};
struct foo_struct *foo = kmalloc(sizeof(*foo),
    GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_NOFAIL | __GFP_ZERO);

pr_info("%s: calling kfree_rcu()\n", __func__);
kfree_rcu(foo, rcu);
msleep(10);
pr_info("%s: start UAF access\n", __func__);
READ_ONCE(foo->a);
pr_info("%s: end UAF access\n", __func__);
```

so we should hold the page table lock. Since full SMP support for

Merge tag 'slab-for-7.0' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vbabka/slab

Pull slab updates from Vlastimil Babka:

 - The percpu sheaves caching layer was introduced as opt-in in 6.18 and
   now we enable it for all caches and remove the previous cpu (partial)
   slab caching mechanism.

   Besides the lower locking overhead and much more likely fastpath when
   freeing, this removes the rather complicated code related to the cpu
   slab lockless fastpaths (using this_cpu_try_cmpxchg128/64) and all
   its complications for PREEMPT_RT or kmalloc_nolock().

   The lockless slab freelist+counters update operation using
   try_cmpxchg128/64 remains and is crucial for freeing remote NUMA
   objects, and to allow flushing objects from sheaves to slabs mostly
   without the node list_lock (Vlastimil Babka)

 - Eliminate slabobj_ext metadata overhead when possible. Instead of
   using kmalloc() to allocate the array for memcg and/or allocation
   profiling tag pointers, use leftover space in a slab or per-object
   padding due to alignment (Harry Yoo)

 - Various followup improvements to the above (Hao Li)

9c8c02df3f mm: make PT_RECLAIM depends on MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE
The PT_RECLAIM can work on all architectures that support
MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE, except for those that have selected
HAVE_ARCH_TLB_REMOVE_TABLE,so make PT_RECLAIM depends on
MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE && !HAVE_ARCH_TLB_REMOVE_TABLE.

BTW, change PT_RECLAIM to be enabled by default, since nobody should want
to turn it off.

086498aed3 mm: convert __HAVE_ARCH_TLB_REMOVE_TABLE to CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_TLB_REMOVE_TABLE config
For architectures that define __HAVE_ARCH_TLB_REMOVE_TABLE, the page
tables at the pmd/pud level are generally not of struct ptdesc type, and
do not have pt_rcu_head member, thus these architectures cannot support
PT_RECLAIM.

In preparation for enabling PT_RECLAIM on more architectures, convert
__HAVE_ARCH_TLB_REMOVE_TABLE to CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_TLB_REMOVE_TABLE config,
so that we can make conditional judgments in Kconfig.

While compaction depends on migration, the other direction is not the
case.  So let's make it clearer that this is all about migration of

7cf3318a25 mm/kconfig: make BALLOON_COMPACTION depend on MIGRATION
Migration support for balloon memory depends on MIGRATION not COMPACTION. 
Compaction is simply another user of page migration.

The last dependency on compaction.c was effectively removed with commit
3d388584d5 ("mm: convert "movable" flag in page->mapping to a page
flag").  Ever since, everything for handling movable_ops page migration
resides in core migration code.

So let's change the dependency and adjust the description + help text.

We'll rename BALLOON_COMPACTION separately next.

7303ecbfe4 mm: introduce CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_LAZY_MMU_MODE
Architectures currently opt in for implementing lazy_mmu helpers by
defining __HAVE_ARCH_ENTER_LAZY_MMU_MODE.

In preparation for introducing a generic lazy_mmu layer that will require
storage in task_struct, let's switch to a cleaner approach: instead of
defining a macro, select a CONFIG option.

This patch introduces CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_LAZY_MMU_MODE and has each arch
select it when it implements lazy_mmu helpers. 
__HAVE_ARCH_ENTER_LAZY_MMU_MODE is removed and <linux/pgtable.h> relies on
the new CONFIG instead.

On x86, lazy_mmu helpers are only implemented if PARAVIRT_XXL is selected.
This creates some complications in arch/x86/boot/, because a few files
manually undefine PARAVIRT* options.  As a result <asm/paravirt.h> does
not define the lazy_mmu helpers, but this breaks the build as
<linux/pgtable.h> only defines them if !CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_LAZY_MMU_MODE. 
There does not seem to be a clean way out of this - let's just undefine
that new CONFIG too.

hotplug ranges, CXL Memory Windows, or EFI Specific Purpose Memory, but
also any PCI MMIO range for the DEVICE_PRIVATE and PCI_P2PDMA cases. Update
the mitigation, limit KASLR entropy, to apply in all ZONE_DEVICE=y cases.

Distro kernels typically have PCI_P2PDMA=y, so the practical exposure of
this problem is limited to the PCI_P2PDMA=n case.

A potential path to recover entropy would be to walk ACPI and determine the
limits for hotplug and PCI MMIO before kernel_randomize_memory(). On
smaller systems that could yield some KASLR address bits. This needs
additional investigation to determine if some limited ACPI table scanning
can happen this early without an open coded solution like
arch/x86/boot/compressed/acpi.c needs to deploy.

31807483d3 mm/memory-failure: remove the selection of RAS
commit 97f0b13452 ("tracing: add trace event for
memory-failure") introduces the selection of RAS in memory-failure.  This
commit is just a tracing feature; in reality, there is no dependency
between memory-failure and RAS.  RAS increases the size of the bzImage
image by 8k, which is very valuable for embedded devices.

Move the memory-failure traceing code from ras_event.h to
memory-failure.h and remove the selection of RAS.

2ec4196718 mm: handle poisoning of pfn without struct pages
Poison (or ECC) errors can be very common on a large size cluster.  The
kernel MM currently does not handle ECC errors / poison on a memory region
that is not backed by struct pages.  If a memory region mapped using
remap_pfn_range() for example, but not added to the kernel, MM will not
have associated struct pages.  Add a new mechanism to handle memory
failure on such memory.

Make kernel MM expose a function to allow modules managing the device
memory to register the device memory SPA and the address space associated
it.  MM maintains this information as an interval tree.  On poison, MM can
search for the range that the poisoned PFN belong and use the
address_space to determine the mapping VMA.

In this implementation, kernel MM follows the following sequence that is
largely similar to the memory_failure() handler for struct page backed
memory:

1. memory_failure() is triggered on reception of a poison error.  An
   absence of struct page is detected and consequently
   memory_failure_pfn() is executed.

2. memory_failure_pfn() collects the processes mapped to the PFN.

3. memory_failure_pfn() sends SIGBUS to all the processes mapping the
   faulty PFN using kill_procs().

Note that there is one primary difference versus the handling of the
poison on struct pages, which is to skip unmapping to the faulty PFN. 
This is done to handle the huge PFNMAP support added recently [1] that
enables VM_PFNMAP vmas to map at PMD or PUD level.  A poison to a PFN
mapped in such as way would need breaking the PMD/PUD mapping into PTEs
that will get mirrored into the S2.  This can greatly increase the cost of
table walks and have a major performance impact.

e97d7c5165 mm: shmem/tmpfs hugepage defaults config choice
Allow to override defaults for shemem and tmpfs at config time.  This is
consistent with how transparent hugepages can be configured.

Same results can be achieved with the existing
'transparent_hugepage_shmem' and 'transparent_hugepage_tmpfs' settings in
the kernel command line, but it is more convenient to define basic
settings at config time instead of changing kernel command line later.

Defaults for shmem and tmpfs were not changed.  They are remained the same
as before: 'never' for both cases.  Options 'deny' and 'force' are omitted
intentionally since these are special values and supposed to be used for
emergencies or testing and are not expected to be permanent ones.

Primary motivation for adding config option is to enable policy
enforcement at build time.  In large-scale production environments (Meta's
for example), the kernel configuration is often maintained centrally close
to the kernel code itself and owned by the kernel engineers, while boot
parameters are managed independently (e.g.  by provisioning systems).  In
such setups, the kernel build defines the supported and expected behavior
in a single place, but there is no reliable or uniform control over the
kernel command line options.

A build-time default allows kernel integrators to enforce a predictable
hugepage policy for shmem/tmpfs on a base layer, ensuring reproducible
behavior and avoiding configuration drift caused by possible boot-time
differences.

In short, primary benefit is mostly operational: it provides a way to
codify preferred policy in the kernel configuration, which is versioned,
reviewed, and tested as part of the kernel build process, rather than
depending on potentially variable boot parameters.

5ba2f0a155 mm: introduce deferred freeing for kernel page tables
This introduces a conditional asynchronous mechanism, enabled by
CONFIG_ASYNC_KERNEL_PGTABLE_FREE.  When enabled, this mechanism defers the
freeing of pages that are used as page tables for kernel address mappings.
These pages are now queued to a work struct instead of being freed
immediately.

This deferred freeing allows for batch-freeing of page tables, providing a
safe context for performing a single expensive operation (TLB flush) for a
batch of kernel page tables instead of performing that expensive operation
for each page table.

39231e8d6b mm: fix MAX_FOLIO_ORDER on powerpc configs with hugetlb
In the past, CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_GIGANTIC_PAGE indicated that we support
runtime allocation of gigantic hugetlb folios.  In the meantime it evolved
into a generic way for the architecture to state that it supports gigantic
hugetlb folios.

In commit fae7d834c4 ("mm: add __dump_folio()") we started using
CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_GIGANTIC_PAGE to decide MAX_FOLIO_ORDER: whether we could
have folios larger than what the buddy can handle.  In the context of that
commit, we started using MAX_FOLIO_ORDER to detect page corruptions when
dumping tail pages of folios.  Before that commit, we assumed that we
cannot have folios larger than the highest buddy order, which was
obviously wrong.

In commit 7b4f21f5e0 ("mm/hugetlb: check for unreasonable folio sizes
when registering hstate"), we used MAX_FOLIO_ORDER to detect
inconsistencies, and in fact, we found some now.

Powerpc allows for configs that can allocate gigantic folio during boot
(not at runtime), that do not set CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_GIGANTIC_PAGE and can
exceed PUD_ORDER.

To fix it, let's make powerpc select CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_GIGANTIC_PAGE with
hugetlb on powerpc, and increase the maximum folio size with hugetlb to 16
GiB on 64bit (possible on arm64 and powerpc) and 1 GiB on 32 bit
(powerpc).  Note that on some powerpc configurations, whether we actually
have gigantic pages depends on the setting of CONFIG_ARCH_FORCE_MAX_ORDER,
but there is nothing really problematic about setting it unconditionally:
we just try to keep the value small so we can better detect problems in
__dump_folio() and inconsistencies around the expected largest folio in
the system.

Ideally, we'd have a better way to obtain the maximum hugetlb folio size
and detect ourselves whether we really end up with gigantic folios.  Let's
defer bigger changes and fix the warnings first.

While at it, handle gigantic DAX folios more clearly: DAX can only end up
creating gigantic folios with HAVE_ARCH_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE_PUD.

Add a new Kconfig option HAVE_GIGANTIC_FOLIOS to make both cases clearer. 
In particular, worry about ARCH_HAS_GIGANTIC_PAGE only with HUGETLB_PAGE.

Note: with enabling CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_GIGANTIC_PAGE on powerpc, we will now
also allow for runtime allocations of folios in some more powerpc configs.
I don't think this is a problem, but if it is we could handle it through
__HAVE_ARCH_GIGANTIC_PAGE_RUNTIME_SUPPORTED.

While __dump_page()/__dump_folio was also problematic (not handling
dumping of tail pages of such gigantic folios correctly), it doesn't seem
critical enough to mark it as a fix.

af92793e52 slab: Introduce kmalloc_nolock() and kfree_nolock().
kmalloc_nolock() relies on ability of local_trylock_t to detect
the situation when per-cpu kmem_cache is locked.

In !PREEMPT_RT local_(try)lock_irqsave(&s->cpu_slab->lock, flags)
disables IRQs and marks s->cpu_slab->lock as acquired.
local_lock_is_locked(&s->cpu_slab->lock) returns true when
slab is in the middle of manipulating per-cpu cache
of that specific kmem_cache.

kmalloc_nolock() can be called from any context and can re-enter
into ___slab_alloc():
  kmalloc() -> ___slab_alloc(cache_A) -> irqsave -> NMI -> bpf ->
    kmalloc_nolock() -> ___slab_alloc(cache_B)
or
  kmalloc() -> ___slab_alloc(cache_A) -> irqsave -> tracepoint/kprobe -> bpf ->
    kmalloc_nolock() -> ___slab_alloc(cache_B)

Hence the caller of ___slab_alloc() checks if &s->cpu_slab->lock
can be acquired without a deadlock before invoking the function.
If that specific per-cpu kmem_cache is busy the kmalloc_nolock()
retries in a different kmalloc bucket. The second attempt will
likely succeed, since this cpu locked different kmem_cache.

Similarly, in PREEMPT_RT local_lock_is_locked() returns true when
per-cpu rt_spin_lock is locked by current _task_. In this case
re-entrance into the same kmalloc bucket is unsafe, and
kmalloc_nolock() tries a different bucket that is most likely is
not locked by the current task. Though it may be locked by a
different task it's safe to rt_spin_lock() and sleep on it.

Similar to alloc_pages_nolock() the kmalloc_nolock() returns NULL
immediately if called from hard irq or NMI in PREEMPT_RT.

kfree_nolock() defers freeing to irq_work when local_lock_is_locked()
and (in_nmi() or in PREEMPT_RT).

SLUB_TINY config doesn't use local_lock_is_locked() and relies on
spin_trylock_irqsave(&n->list_lock) to allocate,
while kfree_nolock() always defers to irq_work.

Note, kfree_nolock() must be called _only_ for objects allocated
with kmalloc_nolock(). Debug checks (like kmemleak and kfence)
were skipped on allocation, hence obj = kmalloc(); kfree_nolock(obj);
will miss kmemleak/kfence book keeping and will cause false positives.
large_kmalloc is not supported by either kmalloc_nolock()
or kfree_nolock().

cde31ecdd1 mm/memory-failure: don't select MEMORY_ISOLATION
We added that "select MEMORY_ISOLATION" in commit ee6f509c32 ("mm:
factor out memory isolate functions").  However, in commit add05cecef
("mm: soft-offline: don't free target page in successful page migration")
we remove the need for it, where we removed the calls to
set_migratetype_isolate() etc.

What CONFIG_MEMORY_FAILURE soft-offline support wants is migrate_pages()
support.  But that comes with CONFIG_MIGRATION.  And
isolate_folio_to_list() has nothing to do with CONFIG_MEMORY_ISOLATION.

Therefore, we can remove "select MEMORY_ISOLATION" of MEMORY_FAILURE.

f8f03eb5f0 mm: stop making SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP user-selectable
Patch series "mm: remove nth_page()", v2.

As discussed recently with Linus, nth_page() is just nasty and we would
like to remove it.

To recap, the reason we currently need nth_page() within a folio is
because on some kernel configs (SPARSEMEM without SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP), the
memmap is allocated per memory section.

While buddy allocations cannot cross memory section boundaries, hugetlb
and dax folios can.

So crossing a memory section means that "page++" could do the wrong thing.
Instead, nth_page() on these problematic configs always goes from
page->pfn, to the go from (++pfn)->page, which is rather nasty.

Likely, many people have no idea when nth_page() is required and when it
might be dropped.

We refer to such problematic PFN ranges and "non-contiguous pages".  If we
only deal with "contiguous pages", there is not need for nth_page().

Besides that "obvious" folio case, we might end up using nth_page() within
CMA allocations (again, could span memory sections), and in one corner
case (kfence) when processing memblock allocations (again, could span
memory sections).

So let's handle all that, add sanity checks, and remove nth_page().

Patch #1 -> #5   : stop making SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP user-selectable + cleanups
Patch #6 -> #13  : disallow folios to have non-contiguous pages
Patch #14 -> #20 : remove nth_page() usage within folios
Patch #22        : disallow CMA allocations of non-contiguous pages
Patch #23 -> #33 : sanity+check + remove nth_page() usage within SG entry
Patch #34        : sanity-check + remove nth_page() usage in
                   unpin_user_page_range_dirty_lock()
Patch #35        : remove nth_page() in kfence
Patch #36        : adjust stale comment regarding nth_page
Patch #37        : mm: remove nth_page()

A lot of this is inspired from the discussion at [1] between Linus, Jason
and me, so cudos to them.


This patch (of 37):

In an ideal world, we wouldn't have to deal with SPARSEMEM without
SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP, but in particular for 32bit SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP is
considered too costly and consequently not supported.

However, if an architecture does support SPARSEMEM with SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP,
let's forbid the user to disable VMEMMAP: just like we already do for
arm64, s390 and x86.

So if SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP is supported, don't allow to use SPARSEMEM without
SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP.

This implies that the option to not use SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP will now be gone
for loongarch, powerpc, riscv and sparc.  All architectures only enable
SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP with 64bit support, so there should not really be a big
downside to using the VMEMMAP (quite the contrary).

This is a preparation for not supporting

(1) folio sizes that exceed a single memory section

(2) CMA allocations of non-contiguous page ranges

in SPARSEMEM without SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP configs, whereby we want to limit
possible impact as much as possible (e.g., gigantic hugetlb page
allocations suddenly fails).

With zpool gone, zsmalloc is now always a simple dependency and no
longer something the user needs to configure. Hide CONFIG_ZSMALLOC

2d8bd8049e mm: add persistent huge zero folio
Many places in the kernel need to zero out larger chunks, but the maximum
segment that can be zeroed out at a time by ZERO_PAGE is limited by
PAGE_SIZE.

This is especially annoying in block devices and filesystems where
multiple ZERO_PAGEs are attached to the bio in different bvecs.  With
multipage bvec support in block layer, it is much more efficient to send
out larger zero pages as a part of single bvec.

This concern was raised during the review of adding Large Block Size
support to XFS[1][2].

Usually huge_zero_folio is allocated on demand, and it will be deallocated
by the shrinker if there are no users of it left.  At moment,
huge_zero_folio infrastructure refcount is tied to the process lifetime
that created it.  This might not work for bio layer as the completions can
be async and the process that created the huge_zero_folio might no longer
be alive.  And, one of the main points that came up during discussion is
to have something bigger than zero page as a drop-in replacement.

Add a config option PERSISTENT_HUGE_ZERO_FOLIO that will result in
allocating the huge zero folio during early init and never free the memory
by disabling the shrinker.  This makes using the huge_zero_folio without
having to pass any mm struct and does not tie the lifetime of the zero
folio to anything, making it a drop-in replacement for ZERO_PAGE.

If PERSISTENT_HUGE_ZERO_FOLIO config option is enabled, then
mm_get_huge_zero_folio() will simply return the allocated page instead of
dynamically allocating a new PMD page.

Use this option carefully in resource constrained systems as it uses one
full PMD sized page for zeroing purposes.

4c89792ea0 mm: rename vm_ops->find_special_page() to vm_ops->find_normal_page()
...  and hide it behind a kconfig option.  There is really no need for any
!xen code to perform this check.

The naming is a bit off: we want to find the "normal" page when a PTE was
marked "special".  So it's really not "finding a special" page.

Improve the documentation, and add a comment in the code where XEN ends up

9a4f90e246 mm: remove mm/io-mapping.c
This is dead code, which was used from commit b739f125e4 ("i915: use
io_mapping_map_user") but reverted a month later by commit 0e4fe0c9f2
("Revert "i915: use io_mapping_map_user"") back in 2021.

Since then nobody has used it, so remove it.
