- The 6 patch series "Enable strict percpu address space checks" from
Uros Bizjak uses x86 named address space qualifiers to provide compile-time checking of percpu area accesses. This has caused a small amount of fallout - two or three issues were reported. In all cases the calling code was founf to be incorrect. - The 4 patch series "Some cleanup for memcg" from Chen Ridong implements some relatively monir cleanups for the memcontrol code. - The 17 patch series "mm: fixes for device-exclusive entries (hmm)" from David Hildenbrand fixes a boatload of issues which David found then using device-exclusive PTE entries when THP is enabled. More work is needed, but this makes thins better - our own HMM selftests now succeed. - The 2 patch series "mm: zswap: remove z3fold and zbud" from Yosry Ahmed remove the z3fold and zbud implementations. They have been deprecated for half a year and nobody has complained. - The 5 patch series "mm: further simplify VMA merge operation" from Lorenzo Stoakes implements numerous simplifications in this area. No runtime effects are anticipated. - The 4 patch series "mm/madvise: remove redundant mmap_lock operations from process_madvise()" from SeongJae Park rationalizes the locking in the madvise() implementation. Performance gains of 20-25% were observed in one MADV_DONTNEED microbenchmark. - The 12 patch series "Tiny cleanup and improvements about SWAP code" from Baoquan He contains a number of touchups to issues which Baoquan noticed when working on the swap code. - The 2 patch series "mm: kmemleak: Usability improvements" from Catalin Marinas implements a couple of improvements to the kmemleak user-visible output. - The 2 patch series "mm/damon/paddr: fix large folios access and schemes handling" from Usama Arif provides a couple of fixes for DAMON's handling of large folios. - The 3 patch series "mm/damon/core: fix wrong and/or useless damos_walk() behaviors" from SeongJae Park fixes a few issues with the accuracy of kdamond's walking of DAMON regions. - The 3 patch series "expose mapping wrprotect, fix fb_defio use" from Lorenzo Stoakes changes the interaction between framebuffer deferred-io and core MM. No functional changes are anticipated - this is preparatory work for the future removal of page structure fields. - The 4 patch series "mm/damon: add support for hugepage_size DAMOS filter" from Usama Arif adds a DAMOS filter which permits the filtering by huge page sizes. - The 4 patch series "mm: permit guard regions for file-backed/shmem mappings" from Lorenzo Stoakes extends the guard region feature from its present "anon mappings only" state. The feature now covers shmem and file-backed mappings. - The 4 patch series "mm: batched unmap lazyfree large folios during reclamation" from Barry Song cleans up and speeds up the unmapping for pte-mapped large folios. - The 18 patch series "reimplement per-vma lock as a refcount" from Suren Baghdasaryan puts the vm_lock back into the vma. Our reasons for pulling it out were largely bogus and that change made the code more messy. This patchset provides small (0-10%) improvements on one microbenchmark. - The 5 patch series "Docs/mm/damon: misc DAMOS filters documentation fixes and improves" from SeongJae Park does some maintenance work on the DAMON docs. - The 27 patch series "hugetlb/CMA improvements for large systems" from Frank van der Linden addresses a pile of issues which have been observed when using CMA on large machines. - The 2 patch series "mm/damon: introduce DAMOS filter type for unmapped pages" from SeongJae Park enables users of DMAON/DAMOS to filter my the page's mapped/unmapped status. - The 19 patch series "zsmalloc/zram: there be preemption" from Sergey Senozhatsky teaches zram to run its compression and decompression operations preemptibly. - The 12 patch series "selftests/mm: Some cleanups from trying to run them" from Brendan Jackman fixes a pile of unrelated issues which Brendan encountered while runnimg our selftests. - The 2 patch series "fs/proc/task_mmu: add guard region bit to pagemap" from Lorenzo Stoakes permits userspace to use /proc/pid/pagemap to determine whether a particular page is a guard page. - The 7 patch series "mm, swap: remove swap slot cache" from Kairui Song removes the swap slot cache from the allocation path - it simply wasn't being effective. - The 5 patch series "mm: cleanups for device-exclusive entries (hmm)" from David Hildenbrand implements a number of unrelated cleanups in this code. - The 5 patch series "mm: Rework generic PTDUMP configs" from Anshuman Khandual implements a number of preparatoty cleanups to the GENERIC_PTDUMP Kconfig logic. - The 8 patch series "mm/damon: auto-tune aggregation interval" from SeongJae Park implements a feedback-driven automatic tuning feature for DAMON's aggregation interval tuning. - The 5 patch series "Fix lazy mmu mode" from Ryan Roberts fixes some issues in powerpc, sparc and x86 lazy MMU implementations.

x86/mm/pat: Fix VM_PAT handling when fork() fails in copy_page_range()
If track_pfn_copy() fails, we already added the dst VMA to the maple tree. As fork() fails, we'll cleanup the maple tree, and stumble over the dst VMA for which we neither performed any reservation nor copied any page tables. Consequently untrack_pfn() will see VM_PAT and try obtaining the PAT information from the page table -- which fails because the page table was not copied. The easiest fix would be to simply clear the VM_PAT flag of the dst VMA if track_pfn_copy() fails. However, the whole thing is about "simply" clearing the VM_PAT flag is shaky as well: if we passed track_pfn_copy() and performed a reservation, but copying the page tables fails, we'll simply clear the VM_PAT flag, not properly undoing the reservation ... which is also wrong. So let's fix it properly: set the VM_PAT flag only if the reservation succeeded (leaving it clear initially), and undo the reservation if anything goes wrong while copying the page tables: clearing the VM_PAT flag after undoing the reservation. Note that any copied page table entries will get zapped when the VMA will get removed later, after copy_page_range() succeeded; as VM_PAT is not set then, we won't try cleaning VM_PAT up once more and untrack_pfn() will be happy. Note that leaving these page tables in place without a reservation is not a problem, as we are aborting fork(); this process will never run.

A treewide hrtimer timer cleanup

pidfs: ensure that PIDFS_INFO_EXIT is available
When we currently create a pidfd we check that the task hasn't been reaped right before we create the pidfd. But it is of course possible that by the time we return the pidfd to userspace the task has already been reaped since we don't check again after having created a dentry for it. This was fine until now because that race was meaningless. But now that we provide PIDFD_INFO_EXIT it is a problem because it is possible that the kernel returns a reaped pidfd and it depends on the race whether PIDFD_INFO_EXIT information is available. This depends on if the task gets reaped before or after a dentry has been attached to struct pid. Make this consistent and only returned pidfds for reaped tasks if PIDFD_INFO_EXIT information is available. This is done by performing another check whether the task has been reaped right after we attached a dentry to struct pid. Since pidfs_exit() is called before struct pid's task linkage is removed the case where the task got reaped but a dentry was already attached to struct pid and exit information was recorded and published can be handled correctly. In that case we do return a pidfd for a reaped task like we would've before.

mm/rmap: basic MM owner tracking for large folios (!hugetlb)
For small folios, we traditionally use the mapcount to decide whether it was "certainly mapped exclusively" by a single MM (mapcount == 1) or whether it "maybe mapped shared" by multiple MMs (mapcount > 1). For PMD-sized folios that were PMD-mapped, we were able to use a similar mechanism (single PMD mapping), but for PTE-mapped folios and in the future folios that span multiple PMDs, this does not work. So we need a different mechanism to handle large folios. Let's add a new mechanism to detect whether a large folio is "certainly mapped exclusively", or whether it is "maybe mapped shared". We'll use this information next to optimize CoW reuse for PTE-mapped anonymous THP, and to convert folio_likely_mapped_shared() to folio_maybe_mapped_shared(), independent of per-page mapcounts. For each large folio, we'll have two slots, whereby a slot stores: (1) an MM id: unique id assigned to each MM (2) a per-MM mapcount If a slot is unoccupied, it can be taken by the next MM that maps folio page. In addition, we'll remember the current state -- "mapped exclusively" vs. "maybe mapped shared" -- and use a bit spinlock to sync on updates and to reduce the total number of atomic accesses on updates. In the future, it might be possible to squeeze a proper spinlock into "struct folio". For now, keep it simple, as we require the whole thing with THP only, that is incompatible with RT. As we have to squeeze this information into the "struct folio" of even folios of order-1 (2 pages), and we generally want to reduce the required metadata, we'll assign each MM a unique ID that can fit into an int. In total, we can squeeze everything into 4x int (2x long) on 64bit. 32bit support is a bit challenging, because we only have 2x long == 2x int in order-1 folios. But we can make it work for now, because we neither expect many MMs nor very large folios on 32bit. We will reliably detect folios as "mapped exclusively" vs. "mapped shared" as long as only two MMs map pages of a folio at one point in time -- for example with fork() and short-lived child processes, or with apps that hand over state from one instance to another. As soon as three MMs are involved at the same time, we might detect "maybe mapped shared" although the folio is "mapped exclusively". Example 1: (1) App1 faults in a (shmem/file-backed) folio page -> Tracked as MM0 (2) App2 faults in a folio page -> Tracked as MM1 (4) App1 unmaps all folio pages -> We will detect "mapped exclusively". Example 2: (1) App1 faults in a (shmem/file-backed) folio page -> Tracked as MM0 (2) App2 faults in a folio page -> Tracked as MM1 (3) App3 faults in a folio page -> No slot available, tracked as "unknown" (4) App1 and App2 unmap all folio pages -> We will detect "maybe mapped shared". Make use of __always_inline to keep possible performance degradation when (un)mapping large folios to a minimum. Note: by squeezing the two flags into the "unsigned long" that stores the MM ids, we can use non-atomic __bit_spin_unlock() and non-atomic setting/clearing of the "maybe mapped shared" bit, effectively not adding any new atomics on the hot path when updating the large mapcount + new metadata, which further helps reduce the runtime overhead in micro-benchmarks.

mm,procfs: allow read-only remote mm access under CAP_PERFMON
It's very common for various tracing and profiling toolis to need to access /proc/PID/maps contents for stack symbolization needs to learn which shared libraries are mapped in memory, at which file offset, etc. Currently, access to /proc/PID/maps requires CAP_SYS_PTRACE (unless we are looking at data for our own process, which is a trivial case not too relevant for profilers use cases). Unfortunately, CAP_SYS_PTRACE implies way more than just ability to discover memory layout of another process: it allows to fully control arbitrary other processes. This is problematic from security POV for applications that only need read-only /proc/PID/maps (and other similar read-only data) access, and in large production settings CAP_SYS_PTRACE is frowned upon even for the system-wide profilers. On the other hand, it's already possible to access similar kind of information (and more) with just CAP_PERFMON capability. E.g., setting up PERF_RECORD_MMAP collection through perf_event_open() would give one similar information to what /proc/PID/maps provides. CAP_PERFMON, together with CAP_BPF, is already a very common combination for system-wide profiling and observability application. As such, it's reasonable and convenient to be able to access /proc/PID/maps with CAP_PERFMON capabilities instead of CAP_SYS_PTRACE. For procfs, these permissions are checked through common mm_access() helper, and so we augment that with cap_perfmon() check *only* if requested mode is PTRACE_MODE_READ. I.e., PTRACE_MODE_ATTACH wouldn't be permitted by CAP_PERFMON. So /proc/PID/mem, which uses PTRACE_MODE_ATTACH, won't be permitted by CAP_PERFMON, but /proc/PID/maps, /proc/PID/environ, and a bunch of other read-only contents will be allowable under CAP_PERFMON. Besides procfs itself, mm_access() is used by process_madvise() and process_vm_{readv,writev}() syscalls. The former one uses PTRACE_MODE_READ to avoid leaking ASLR metadata, and as such CAP_PERFMON seems like a meaningful allowable capability as well. process_vm_{readv,writev} currently assume PTRACE_MODE_ATTACH level of permissions (though for readv PTRACE_MODE_READ seems more reasonable, but that's outside the scope of this change), and as such won't be affected by this patch.

mm: make vma cache SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU
To enable SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU for vma cache we need to ensure that object reuse before RCU grace period is over will be detected by lock_vma_under_rcu(). Current checks are sufficient as long as vma is detached before it is freed. The only place this is not currently happening is in exit_mmap(). Add the missing vma_mark_detached() in exit_mmap(). Another issue which might trick lock_vma_under_rcu() during vma reuse is vm_area_dup(), which copies the entire content of the vma into a new one, overriding new vma's vm_refcnt and temporarily making it appear as attached. This might trick a racing lock_vma_under_rcu() to operate on a reused vma if it found the vma before it got reused. To prevent this situation, we should ensure that vm_refcnt stays at detached state (0) when it is copied and advances to attached state only after it is added into the vma tree. Introduce vm_area_init_from() which preserves new vma's vm_refcnt and use it in vm_area_dup(). Since all vmas are in detached state with no current readers when they are freed, lock_vma_under_rcu() will not be able to take vm_refcnt after vma got detached even if vma is reused. vma_mark_attached() in modified to include a release fence to ensure all stores to the vma happen before vm_refcnt gets initialized. Finally, make vm_area_cachep SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU. This will facilitate vm_area_struct reuse and will minimize the number of call_rcu() calls.

mm: replace vm_lock and detached flag with a reference count
rw_semaphore is a sizable structure of 40 bytes and consumes considerable space for each vm_area_struct. However vma_lock has two important specifics which can be used to replace rw_semaphore with a simpler structure: 1. Readers never wait. They try to take the vma_lock and fall back to mmap_lock if that fails. 2. Only one writer at a time will ever try to write-lock a vma_lock because writers first take mmap_lock in write mode. Because of these requirements, full rw_semaphore functionality is not needed and we can replace rw_semaphore and the vma->detached flag with a refcount (vm_refcnt). When vma is in detached state, vm_refcnt is 0 and only a call to vma_mark_attached() can take it out of this state. Note that unlike before, now we enforce both vma_mark_attached() and vma_mark_detached() to be done only after vma has been write-locked. vma_mark_attached() changes vm_refcnt to 1 to indicate that it has been attached to the vma tree. When a reader takes read lock, it increments vm_refcnt, unless the top usable bit of vm_refcnt (0x40000000) is set, indicating presence of a writer. When writer takes write lock, it sets the top usable bit to indicate its presence. If there are readers, writer will wait using newly introduced mm->vma_writer_wait. Since all writers take mmap_lock in write mode first, there can be only one writer at a time. The last reader to release the lock will signal the writer to wake up. refcount might overflow if there are many competing readers, in which case read-locking will fail. Readers are expected to handle such failures. In summary: 1. all readers increment the vm_refcnt; 2. writer sets top usable (writer) bit of vm_refcnt; 3. readers cannot increment the vm_refcnt if the writer bit is set; 4. in the presence of readers, writer must wait for the vm_refcnt to drop to 1 (plus the VMA_LOCK_OFFSET writer bit), indicating an attached vma with no readers; 5. vm_refcnt overflow is handled by the readers. While this vm_lock replacement does not yet result in a smaller vm_area_struct (it stays at 256 bytes due to cacheline alignment), it allows for further size optimization by structure member regrouping to bring the size of vm_area_struct below 192 bytes.

mm: mark vma as detached until it's added into vma tree
Current implementation does not set detached flag when a VMA is first allocated. This does not represent the real state of the VMA, which is detached until it is added into mm's VMA tree. Fix this by marking new VMAs as detached and resetting detached flag only after VMA is added into a tree. Introduce vma_mark_attached() to make the API more readable and to simplify possible future cleanup when vma->vm_mm might be used to indicate detached vma and vma_mark_attached() will need an additional mm parameter.

mm: move per-vma lock into vm_area_struct
Back when per-vma locks were introduces, vm_lock was moved out of vm_area_struct in [1] because of the performance regression caused by false cacheline sharing. Recent investigation [2] revealed that the regressions is limited to a rather old Broadwell microarchitecture and even there it can be mitigated by disabling adjacent cacheline prefetching, see [3]. Splitting single logical structure into multiple ones leads to more complicated management, extra pointer dereferences and overall less maintainable code. When that split-away part is a lock, it complicates things even further. With no performance benefits, there are no reasons for this split. Merging the vm_lock back into vm_area_struct also allows vm_area_struct to use SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU later in this patchset. Move vm_lock back into vm_area_struct, aligning it at the cacheline boundary and changing the cache to be cacheline-aligned as well. With kernel compiled using defconfig, this causes VMA memory consumption to grow from 160 (vm_area_struct) + 40 (vm_lock) bytes to 256 bytes: slabinfo before: <name> ... <objsize> <objperslab> <pagesperslab> : ... vma_lock ... 40 102 1 : ... vm_area_struct ... 160 51 2 : ... slabinfo after moving vm_lock: <name> ... <objsize> <objperslab> <pagesperslab> : ... vm_area_struct ... 256 32 2 : ... Aggregate VMA memory consumption per 1000 VMAs grows from 50 to 64 pages, which is 5.5MB per 100000 VMAs. Note that the size of this structure is dependent on the kernel configuration and typically the original size is higher than 160 bytes. Therefore these calculations are close to the worst case scenario. A more realistic vm_area_struct usage before this change is: <name> ... <objsize> <objperslab> <pagesperslab> : ... vma_lock ... 40 102 1 : ... vm_area_struct ... 176 46 2 : ... Aggregate VMA memory consumption per 1000 VMAs grows from 54 to 64 pages, which is 3.9MB per 100000 VMAs. This memory consumption growth can be addressed later by optimizing the vm_lock.

kernel: be more careful about dup_mmap() failures and uprobe registering
If a memory allocation fails during dup_mmap(), the maple tree can be left in an unsafe state for other iterators besides the exit path. All the locks are dropped before the exit_mmap() call (in mm/mmap.c), but the incomplete mm_struct can be reached through (at least) the rmap finding the vmas which have a pointer back to the mm_struct. Up to this point, there have been no issues with being able to find an mm_struct that was only partially initialised. Syzbot was able to make the incomplete mm_struct fail with recent forking changes, so it has been proven unsafe to use the mm_struct that hasn't been initialised, as referenced in the link below. Although 8ac662f5da19f ("fork: avoid inappropriate uprobe access to invalid mm") fixed the uprobe access, it does not completely remove the race. This patch sets the MMF_OOM_SKIP to avoid the iteration of the vmas on the oom side (even though this is extremely unlikely to be selected as an oom victim in the race window), and sets MMF_UNSTABLE to avoid other potential users from using a partially initialised mm_struct. When registering vmas for uprobe, skip the vmas in an mm that is marked unstable. Modifying a vma in an unstable mm may cause issues if the mm isn't fully initialised.

This allows userspace to fill in file content on demand from slow storage. The context in which the events are generated has been picked so that we don't hold any locks and thus there's no risk of a deadlock for the userspace handler. The new pre-content event is available only for users with global CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability (similarly to other parts of fanotify functionality) and it is an administrator responsibility to make sure the userspace event handler doesn't do stupid stuff that can DoS the system. Based on your feedback from the last submission, fsnotify code has been improved and now file->f_mode encodes whether pre-content event needs to be generated for the file so the fast path when nobody wants pre-content event for the file just grows the additional file->f_mode check.

fork: avoid inappropriate uprobe access to invalid mm
If dup_mmap() encounters an issue, currently uprobe is able to access the relevant mm via the reverse mapping (in build_map_info()), and if we are very unlucky with a race window, observe invalid XA_ZERO_ENTRY state which we establish as part of the fork error path. This occurs because uprobe_write_opcode() invokes anon_vma_prepare() which in turn invokes find_mergeable_anon_vma() that uses a VMA iterator, invoking vma_iter_load() which uses the advanced maple tree API and thus is able to observe XA_ZERO_ENTRY entries added to dup_mmap() in commit d24062914837 ("fork: use __mt_dup() to duplicate maple tree in dup_mmap()"). This change was made on the assumption that only process tear-down code would actually observe (and make use of) these values. However this very unlikely but still possible edge case with uprobes exists and unfortunately does make these observable. The uprobe operation prevents races against the dup_mmap() operation via the dup_mmap_sem semaphore, which is acquired via uprobe_start_dup_mmap() and dropped via uprobe_end_dup_mmap(), and held across register_for_each_vma() prior to invoking build_map_info() which does the reverse mapping lookup. Currently these are acquired and dropped within dup_mmap(), which exposes the race window prior to error handling in the invoking dup_mm() which tears down the mm. We can avoid all this by just moving the invocation of uprobe_start_dup_mmap() and uprobe_end_dup_mmap() up a level to dup_mm() and only release this lock once the dup_mmap() operation succeeds or clean up is done. This means that the uprobe code can never observe an incompletely constructed mm and resolves the issue in this case.

fs: don't block write during exec on pre-content watched files
Commit 2a010c412853 ("fs: don't block i_writecount during exec") removed the legacy behavior of getting ETXTBSY on attempt to open and executable file for write while it is being executed. This commit was reverted because an application that depends on this legacy behavior was broken by the change. We need to allow HSM writing into executable files while executed to fill their content on-the-fly. To that end, disable the ETXTBSY legacy behavior for files that are watched by pre-content events. This change is not expected to cause regressions with existing systems which do not have any pre-content event listeners.

mm: convert mm_lock_seq to a proper seqcount
Convert mm_lock_seq to be seqcount_t and change all mmap_write_lock variants to increment it, in-line with the usual seqcount usage pattern. This lets us check whether the mmap_lock is write-locked by checking mm_lock_seq.sequence counter (odd=locked, even=unlocked). This will be used when implementing mmap_lock speculation functions. As a result vm_lock_seq is also change to be unsigned to match the type of mm_lock_seq.sequence.

A rather large update for timekeeping and timers:
- The final step to get rid of auto-rearming posix-timers posix-timers are currently auto-rearmed by the kernel when the signal of the timer is ignored so that the timer signal can be delivered once the corresponding signal is unignored. This requires to throttle the timer to prevent a DoS by small intervals and keeps the system pointlessly out of low power states for no value. This is a long standing non-trivial problem due to the lock order of posix-timer lock and the sighand lock along with life time issues as the timer and the sigqueue have different life time rules. Cure this by: * Embedding the sigqueue into the timer struct to have the same life time rules. Aside of that this also avoids the lookup of the timer in the signal delivery and rearm path as it's just a always valid container_of() now. * Queuing ignored timer signals onto a seperate ignored list. * Moving queued timer signals onto the ignored list when the signal is switched to SIG_IGN before it could be delivered. * Walking the ignored list when SIG_IGN is lifted and requeue the signals to the actual signal lists. This allows the signal delivery code to rearm the timer. This also required to consolidate the signal delivery rules so they are consistent across all situations. With that all self test scenarios finally succeed. - Core infrastructure for VFS multigrain timestamping This is required to allow the kernel to use coarse grained time stamps by default and switch to fine grained time stamps when inode attributes are actively observed via getattr(). These changes have been provided to the VFS tree as well, so that the VFS specific infrastructure could be built on top. - Cleanup and consolidation of the sleep() infrastructure * Move all sleep and timeout functions into one file * Rework udelay() and ndelay() into proper documented inline functions and replace the hardcoded magic numbers by proper defines. * Rework the fsleep() implementation to take the reality of the timer wheel granularity on different HZ values into account. Right now the boundaries are hard coded time ranges which fail to provide the requested accuracy on different HZ settings. * Update documentation for all sleep/timeout related functions and fix up stale documentation links all over the place * Fixup a few usage sites - Rework of timekeeping and adjtimex(2) to prepare for multiple PTP clocks A system can have multiple PTP clocks which are participating in seperate and independent PTP clock domains. So far the kernel only considers the PTP clock which is based on CLOCK TAI relevant as that's the clock which drives the timekeeping adjustments via the various user space daemons through adjtimex(2). The non TAI based clock domains are accessible via the file descriptor based posix clocks, but their usability is very limited. They can't be accessed fast as they always go all the way out to the hardware and they cannot be utilized in the kernel itself. As Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) gains traction it is required to provide fast user and kernel space access to these clocks. The approach taken is to utilize the timekeeping and adjtimex(2) infrastructure to provide this access in a similar way how the kernel provides access to clock MONOTONIC, REALTIME etc. Instead of creating a duplicated infrastructure this rework converts timekeeping and adjtimex(2) into generic functionality which operates on pointers to data structures instead of using static variables. This allows to provide time accessors and adjtimex(2) functionality for the independent PTP clocks in a subsequent step. - Consolidate hrtimer initialization hrtimers are set up by initializing the data structure and then seperately setting the callback function for historical reasons. That's an extra unnecessary step and makes Rust support less straight forward than it should be. Provide a new set of hrtimer_setup*() functions and convert the core code and a few usage sites of the less frequently used interfaces over. The bulk of the htimer_init() to hrtimer_setup() conversion is already prepared and scheduled for the next merge window. - Drivers: * Ensure that the global timekeeping clocksource is utilizing the cluster 0 timer on MIPS multi-cluster systems. Otherwise CPUs on different clusters use their cluster specific clocksource which is not guaranteed to be synchronized with other clusters. * Mostly boring cleanups, fixes, improvements and code movement -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQJHBAABCgAxFiEEQp8+kY+LLUocC4bMphj1TA10mKEFAmc7kPITHHRnbHhAbGlu dXRyb25peC5kZQAKCRCmGPVMDXSYoZKkD/9OUL6fOJrDUmOYBa4QVeMyfTef4EaL tvwIMM/29XQFeiq3xxCIn+EMnHjXn2lvIhYGQ7GKsbKYwvJ7ZBDpQb+UMhZ2nKI9 6D6BP6WomZohKeH2fZbJQAdqOi3KRYdvQdIsVZUexkqiaVPphRvOH9wOr45gHtZM EyMRSotPlQTDqcrbUejDMEO94GyjDCYXRsyATLxjmTzL/N4xD4NRIiotjM2vL/a9 8MuCgIhrKUEyYlFoOxxeokBsF3kk3/ez2jlG9b/N8VLH3SYIc2zgL58FBgWxlmgG bY71nVG3nUgEjxBd2dcXAVVqvb+5widk8p6O7xxOAQKTLMcJ4H0tQDkMnzBtUzvB DGAJDHAmAr0g+ja9O35Pkhunkh4HYFIbq0Il4d1HMKObhJV0JumcKuQVxrXycdm3 UZfq3seqHsZJQbPgCAhlFU0/2WWScocbee9bNebGT33KVwSp5FoVv89C/6Vjb+vV Gusc3thqrQuMAZW5zV8g4UcBAA/xH4PB0I+vHib+9XPZ4UQ7/6xKl2jE0kd5hX7n AAUeZvFNFqIsY+B6vz+Jx/yzyM7u5cuXq87pof5EHVFzv56lyTp4ToGcOGYRgKH5 JXeYV1OxGziSDrd5vbf9CzdWMzqMvTefXrHbWrjkjhNOe8E1A8O88RZ5uRKZhmSw hZZ4hdM9+3T7cg== =2VC6 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'timers-core-2024-11-18' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull timer updates from Thomas Gleixner: "A rather large update for timekeeping and timers: - The final step to get rid of auto-rearming posix-timers posix-timers are currently auto-rearmed by the kernel when the signal of the timer is ignored so that the timer signal can be delivered once the corresponding signal is unignored.

mm: refactor mm_access() to not return NULL
mm_access() can return NULL if the mm is not found, but this is handled the same as an error in all callers, with some translating this into an -ESRCH error. Only proc_mem_open() returns NULL if no mm is found, however in this case it is clearer and makes more sense to explicitly handle the error. Additionally we take the opportunity to refactor the function to eliminate unnecessary nesting. Simplify things by simply returning -ESRCH if no mm is found - this both eliminates confusing use of the IS_ERR_OR_NULL() macro, and simplifies callers which would return -ESRCH by returning this error directly.

fork: only invoke khugepaged, ksm hooks if no error
There is no reason to invoke these hooks early against an mm that is in an incomplete state. The change in commit d24062914837 ("fork: use __mt_dup() to duplicate maple tree in dup_mmap()") makes this more pertinent as we may be in a state where entries in the maple tree are not yet consistent. Their placement early in dup_mmap() only appears to have been meaningful for early error checking, and since functionally it'd require a very small allocation to fail (in practice 'too small to fail') that'd only occur in the most dire circumstances, meaning the fork would fail or be OOM'd in any case. Since both khugepaged and KSM tracking are there to provide optimisations to memory performance rather than critical functionality, it doesn't really matter all that much if, under such dire memory pressure, we fail to register an mm with these. As a result, we follow the example of commit d2081b2bf819 ("mm: khugepaged: make khugepaged_enter() void function") and make ksm_fork() a void function also. We only expose the mm to these functions once we are done with them and only if no error occurred in the fork operation.

fork: do not invoke uffd on fork if error occurs
Patch series "fork: do not expose incomplete mm on fork". During fork we may place the virtual memory address space into an inconsistent state before the fork operation is complete. In addition, we may encounter an error during the fork operation that indicates that the virtual memory address space is invalidated. As a result, we should not be exposing it in any way to external machinery that might interact with the mm or VMAs, machinery that is not designed to deal with incomplete state. We specifically update the fork logic to defer khugepaged and ksm to the end of the operation and only to be invoked if no error arose, and disallow uffd from observing fork events should an error have occurred. This patch (of 2): Currently on fork we expose the virtual address space of a process to userland unconditionally if uffd is registered in VMAs, regardless of whether an error arose in the fork. This is performed in dup_userfaultfd_complete() which is invoked unconditionally, and performs two duties - invoking registered handlers for the UFFD_EVENT_FORK event via dup_fctx(), and clearing down userfaultfd_fork_ctx objects established in dup_userfaultfd(). This is problematic, because the virtual address space may not yet be correctly initialised if an error arose. The change in commit d24062914837 ("fork: use __mt_dup() to duplicate maple tree in dup_mmap()") makes this more pertinent as we may be in a state where entries in the maple tree are not yet consistent. We address this by, on fork error, ensuring that we roll back state that we would otherwise expect to clean up through the event being handled by userland and perform the memory freeing duty otherwise performed by dup_userfaultfd_complete(). We do this by implementing a new function, dup_userfaultfd_fail(), which performs the same loop, only decrementing reference counts. Note that we perform mmgrab() on the parent and child mm's, however userfaultfd_ctx_put() will mmdrop() this once the reference count drops to zero, so we will avoid memory leaks correctly here.

posix-cpu-timers: Clear TICK_DEP_BIT_POSIX_TIMER on clone
When cloning a new thread, its posix_cputimers are not inherited, and are cleared by posix_cputimers_init(). However, this does not clear the tick dependency it creates in tsk->tick_dep_mask, and the handler does not reach the code to clear the dependency if there were no timers to begin with. Thus if a thread has a cputimer running before clone/fork, all descendants will prevent nohz_full unless they create a cputimer of their own. Fix this by entirely clearing the tick_dep_mask in copy_process(). (There is currently no inherited state that needs a tick dependency) Process-wide timers do not have this problem because fork does not copy signal_struct as a baseline, it creates one from scratch.

sched: Improve cache locality of RSEQ concurrency IDs for intermittent workloads
commit 223baf9d17f25 ("sched: Fix performance regression introduced by mm_cid") introduced a per-mm/cpu current concurrency id (mm_cid), which keeps a reference to the concurrency id allocated for each CPU. This reference expires shortly after a 100ms delay. These per-CPU references keep the per-mm-cid data cache-local in situations where threads are running at least once on each CPU within each 100ms window, thus keeping the per-cpu reference alive. However, intermittent workloads behaving in bursts spaced by more than 100ms on each CPU exhibit bad cache locality and degraded performance compared to purely per-cpu data indexing, because concurrency IDs are allocated over various CPUs and cores, therefore losing cache locality of the associated data. Introduce the following changes to improve per-mm-cid cache locality: - Add a "recent_cid" field to the per-mm/cpu mm_cid structure to keep track of which mm_cid value was last used, and use it as a hint to attempt re-allocating the same concurrency ID the next time this mm/cpu needs to allocate a concurrency ID, - Add a per-mm CPUs allowed mask, which keeps track of the union of CPUs allowed for all threads belonging to this mm. This cpumask is only set during the lifetime of the mm, never cleared, so it represents the union of all the CPUs allowed since the beginning of the mm lifetime (note that the mm_cpumask() is really arch-specific and tailored to the TLB flush needs, and is thus _not_ a viable approach for this), - Add a per-mm nr_cpus_allowed to keep track of the weight of the per-mm CPUs allowed mask (for fast access), - Add a per-mm max_nr_cid to keep track of the highest number of concurrency IDs allocated for the mm. This is used for expanding the concurrency ID allocation within the upper bound defined by: min(mm->nr_cpus_allowed, mm->mm_users) When the next unused CID value reaches this threshold, stop trying to expand the cid allocation and use the first available cid value instead. Spreading allocation to use all the cid values within the range [ 0, min(mm->nr_cpus_allowed, mm->mm_users) - 1 ] improves cache locality while preserving mm_cid compactness within the expected user limits, - In __mm_cid_try_get, only return cid values within the range [ 0, mm->nr_cpus_allowed ] rather than [ 0, nr_cpu_ids ]. This prevents allocating cids above the number of allowed cpus in rare scenarios where cid allocation races with a concurrent remote-clear of the per-mm/cpu cid. This improvement is made possible by the addition of the per-mm CPUs allowed mask, - In sched_mm_cid_migrate_to, use mm->nr_cpus_allowed rather than t->nr_cpus_allowed. This criterion was really meant to compare the number of mm->mm_users to the number of CPUs allowed for the entire mm. Therefore, the prior comparison worked fine when all threads shared the same CPUs allowed mask, but not so much in scenarios where those threads have different masks (e.g. each thread pinned to a single CPU). This improvement is made possible by the addition of the per-mm CPUs allowed mask. * Benchmarks Each thread increments 16kB worth of 8-bit integers in bursts, with a configurable delay between each thread's execution. Each thread run one after the other (no threads run concurrently). The order of thread execution in the sequence is random. The thread execution sequence begins again after all threads have executed. The 16kB areas are allocated with rseq_mempool and indexed by either cpu_id, mm_cid (not cache-local), or cache-local mm_cid. Each thread is pinned to its own core. Testing configurations: 8-core/1-L3: Use 8 cores within a single L3 24-core/24-L3: Use 24 cores, 1 core per L3 192-core/24-L3: Use 192 cores (all cores in the system) 384-thread/24-L3: Use 384 HW threads (all HW threads in the system) Intermittent workload delays between threads: 200ms, 10ms.

close_range(): fix the logics in descriptor table trimming
Cloning a descriptor table picks the size that would cover all currently opened files. That's fine for clone() and unshare(), but for close_range() there's an additional twist - we clone before we close, and it would be a shame to have close_range(3, ~0U, CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE) leave us with a huge descriptor table when we are not going to keep anything past stderr, just because some large file descriptor used to be open before our call has taken it out. Unfortunately, it had been dealt with in an inherently racy way - sane_fdtable_size() gets a "don't copy anything past that" argument (passed via unshare_fd() and dup_fd()), close_range() decides how much should be trimmed and passes that to unshare_fd(). The problem is, a range that used to extend to the end of descriptor table back when close_range() had looked at it might very well have stuff grown after it by the time dup_fd() has allocated a new files_struct and started to figure out the capacity of fdtable to be attached to that. That leads to interesting pathological cases; at the very least it's a QoI issue, since unshare(CLONE_FILES) is atomic in a sense that it takes a snapshot of descriptor table one might have observed at some point. Since CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE close_range() is supposed to be a combination of unshare(CLONE_FILES) with plain close_range(), ending up with a weird state that would never occur with unshare(2) is confusing, to put it mildly. It's not hard to get rid of - all it takes is passing both ends of the range down to sane_fdtable_size(). There we are under ->files_lock, so the race is trivially avoided. So we do the following: * switch close_files() from calling unshare_fd() to calling dup_fd(). * undo the calling convention change done to unshare_fd() in 60997c3d45d9 "close_range: add CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE" * introduce struct fd_range, pass a pointer to that to dup_fd() and sane_fdtable_size() instead of "trim everything past that point" they are currently getting. NULL means "we are not going to be punching any holes"; NR_OPEN_MAX is gone. * make sane_fdtable_size() use find_last_bit() instead of open-coding it; it's easier to follow that way. * while we are at it, have dup_fd() report errors by returning ERR_PTR(), no need to use a separate int *errorp argument.

sched_ext: Initial pull request for v6.12
This is the initial pull request of sched_ext. The v7 patchset (https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20240618212056.2833381-1-tj@kernel.org) is applied on top of tip/sched/core + bpf/master as of Jun 18th. tip/sched/core 793a62823d1c ("sched/core: Drop spinlocks on contention iff kernel is preempti ble") bpf/master f6afdaf72af7 ("Merge branch 'bpf-support-resilient-split-btf'") Since then, the following pulls were made: - v6.11-rc1 is pulled to keep up with the mainline. - tip/sched/core was pulled several times: - 7b9f6c864a34, 0df340ceae2e, 5ac998574f93, 0b1777f0fa04: To resolve conflicts. See each commit for details on conflicts and their resolutions. - d7b01aef9dbd: To receive fd03c5b85855 ("sched: Rework pick_next_task()") and related commits. @prev in added to sched_class->put_prev_task() and put_prev_task() is reordered after ->pick_task(), which makes sched_class->switch_class() unnecessary. The follow-up commits update sched_ext accordingly and drop sched_class->switch_class(). - bpf/master was pulled to receive baebe9aaba1e ("bpf: allow passing struct bpf_iter_<type> as kfunc arguments") and related changes in preparation for the DSQ iterator patchset To obtain the net sched_ext changes, diff against: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/sched_ext.git for-6.12-base which is the merge of: tip/sched/core bc9057da1a22 ("sched/cpufreq: Use NSEC_PER_MSEC for deadline task") bpf/master 2ad6d23f465 ("selftests/bpf: Do not update vmlinux.h unnecessarily") Since the v7 patchset, the following changes were made: - cpuperf support which was a part of the v6 patchset was posted separately and then applied after reviews. - cgroup support which was a part of the v6 patchset was posted seprately, iterated and then applied. - Improve integration with sched core. - Double locking usage in migration paths dropped. Depend on TASK_ON_RQ_MIGRATING synchronization instead. - The BPF scheduler couldn't directly dispatch to the local DSQ of another CPU using a SCX_DSQ_LOCAL_ON verdict. This caused difficulties around handling non-wakeup enqueues. Updated so that SCX_DSQ_LOCAL_ON can be used in the enqueue path too. - DSQ iterator which was a part of the v6 patchset was posted separately. The iterator itself was applied after a couple revisions. The associated selective consumption kfunc can use further improvements and is still being worked on. - scx_bpf_dispatch[_vtime]_from_dsq() added to increase flexibility. A task can now be transferred between two DSQs from almost any context. This involved significant refactoring of migration code. - Various fixes and improvements. As the branch is based on top of tip/sched/core + bpf/master, please merge after both are applied. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iIQEABYKACwWIQTfIjM1kS57o3GsC/uxYfJx3gVYGQUCZuOSuA4cdGpAa2VybmVs Lm9yZwAKCRCxYfJx3gVYGVZyAQDBU3WPkYKB8gl6a6YQ+/PzBXorOK7mioS9A2iJ vBR3FgEAg1vtcss1S+2juWmVq7ItiFNWCqtXzUr/bVmL9CqqDwA= =bOOC -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'sched_ext-for-6.12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/sched_ext Pull sched_ext support from Tejun Heo: "This implements a new scheduler class called ‘ext_sched_class’, or sched_ext, which allows scheduling policies to be implemented as BPF programs.

Revert "uprobes: use vm_special_mapping close() functionality"
This reverts commit 08e28de1160a712724268fd33d77b32f1bc84d1c. A malicious application can munmap() its "[uprobes]" vma and in this case xol_mapping.close == uprobe_clear_state() will free the memory which can be used by another thread, or the same thread when it hits the uprobe bp afterwards.

This one is passed to _install_special_mapping() in xol_add_vma(). __mput reads: static inline void __mmput(struct mm_struct *mm) { VM_BUG_ON(atomic_read(&mm->mm_users)); uprobe_clear_state(mm); exit_aio(mm); ksm_exit(mm); khugepaged_exit(mm); /* must run before exit_mmap */ exit_mmap(mm); ... } So uprobe_clear_state() in the beginning free's the memory area containing the vm_special_mapping data, but exit_mmap() uses this address later via vma->vm_private_data (which was set in _install_special_mapping(). Fix this by moving uprobe_clear_state() to uprobes.c and use it as close() callback.

mm: turn USE_SPLIT_PTE_PTLOCKS / USE_SPLIT_PTE_PTLOCKS into Kconfig options
Patch series "mm: split PTE/PMD PT table Kconfig cleanups+clarifications". This series is a follow up to the fixes: "[PATCH v1 0/2] mm/hugetlb: fix hugetlb vs. core-mm PT locking" When working on the fixes, I wondered why 8xx is fine (-> never uses split PT locks) and how PT locking even works properly with PMD page table sharing (-> always requires split PMD PT locks). Let's improve the split PT lock detection, make hugetlb properly depend on it and make 8xx bail out if it would ever get enabled by accident. As an alternative to patch #3 we could extend the Kconfig SPLIT_PTE_PTLOCKS option from patch #2 -- but enforcing it closer to the code that actually implements it feels a bit nicer for documentation purposes, and there is no need to actually disable it because it should always be disabled (!SMP). Did a bunch of cross-compilations to make sure that split PTE/PMD PT locks are still getting used where we would expect them. [1] https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20240725183955.2268884-1-david@redhat.com This patch (of 3): Let's clean that up a bit and prepare for depending on CONFIG_SPLIT_PMD_PTLOCKS in other Kconfig options. More cleanups would be reasonable (like the arch-specific "depends on" for CONFIG_SPLIT_PTE_PTLOCKS), but we'll leave that for another day.

Revert "pidfd: prevent creation of pidfds for kthreads"
This reverts commit 3b5bbe798b2451820e74243b738268f51901e7d0. Eric reported that systemd-shutdown gets broken by blocking the creating of pidfds for kthreads as older versions seems to rely on being able to create a pidfd for any process in /proc.

pidfd: prevent creation of pidfds for kthreads
It's currently possible to create pidfds for kthreads but it is unclear what that is supposed to mean. Until we have use-cases for it and we figured out what behavior we want block the creation of pidfds for kthreads.

kernel/fork.c: get estimated free pages by memblock api
Instead of getting estimated free pages from memblock directly, we have introduced an API, memblock_estimated_nr_free_pages(), which is more friendly for users. Just replace it with new API, no functional change.
