Jiaqi Yan 9e130c4b00 mm/hwpoison: delete all entries before traversal in __folio_free_raw_hwp 
Patch series "Improve hugetlbfs read on HWPOISON hugepages", v4.

Today when hardware memory is corrupted in a hugetlb hugepage, kernel
leaves the hugepage in pagecache [1]; otherwise future mmap or read will
suject to silent data corruption.  This is implemented by returning -EIO
from hugetlb_read_iter immediately if the hugepage has HWPOISON flag set.

Since memory_failure already tracks the raw HWPOISON subpages in a
hugepage, a natural improvement is possible: if userspace only asks for
healthy subpages in the pagecache, kernel can return these data.

This patchset implements this improvement.  It consist of three parts. 
The 1st commit exports the functionality to tell if a subpage inside a
hugetlb hugepage is a raw HWPOISON page.  The 2nd commit teaches
hugetlbfs_read_iter to return as many healthy bytes as possible.  The 3rd
commit properly tests this new feature.

[1] commit 8625147caf ("hugetlbfs: don't delete error page from pagecache")


This patch (of 4):

Traversal on llist (e.g.  llist_for_each_safe) is only safe AFTER entries
are deleted from the llist.  Correct the way __folio_free_raw_hwp deletes
and frees raw_hwp_page entries in raw_hwp_list: first llist_del_all, then
kfree within llist_for_each_safe.

As of today, concurrent adding, deleting, and traversal on raw_hwp_list
from hugetlb.c and/or memory-failure.c are fine with each other.  Note
this is guaranteed partly by the lock-free nature of llist, and partly by
holding hugetlb_lock and/or mf_mutex.  For example, as llist_del_all is
lock-free with itself, folio_clear_hugetlb_hwpoison()s from
__update_and_free_hugetlb_folio and memory_failure won't need explicit
locking when freeing the raw_hwp_list.  New code that manipulates
raw_hwp_list must be careful to ensure the concurrency correctness.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
