- 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. Ryan did this in preparation for implementing lazy mmu mode for arm64 to optimize vmalloc. - The 2 patch series "mm/page_alloc: Some clarifications for migratetype fallback" from Brendan Jackman reworks some commentary to make the code easier to follow. - The 3 patch series "page_counter cleanup and size reduction" from Shakeel Butt cleans up the page_counter code and fixes a size increase which we accidentally added late last year. - The 3 patch series "Add a command line option that enables control of how many threads should be used to allocate huge pages" from Thomas Prescher does that. It allows the careful operator to significantly reduce boot time by tuning the parallalization of huge page initialization. - The 3 patch series "Fix calculations in trace_balance_dirty_pages() for cgwb" from Tang Yizhou fixes the tracing output from the dirty page balancing code. - The 9 patch series "mm/damon: make allow filters after reject filters useful and intuitive" from SeongJae Park improves the handling of allow and reject filters.

"This contains cleanups that fell out of the work from async directory
handling:
- Change kern_path_locked() and user_path_locked_at() to never return
a negative dentry. This simplifies the usability of these helpers
in various places
- Drop d_exact_alias() from the remaining place in NFS where it is
still used. This also allows us to drop the d_exact_alias() helper
completely
- Drop an unnecessary call to fh_update() from nfsd_create_locked()
- Change i_op->mkdir() to return a struct dentry
Change vfs_mkdir() to return a dentry provided by the filesystems
which is hashed and positive. This allows us to reduce the number
of cases where the resulting dentry is not positive to very few
cases. The code in these places becomes simpler and easier to
understand.

mm/shmem: use xas_try_split() in shmem_split_large_entry()
During shmem_split_large_entry(), large swap entries are covering n slots and an order-0 folio needs to be inserted. Instead of splitting all n slots, only the 1 slot covered by the folio need to be split and the remaining n-1 shadow entries can be retained with orders ranging from 0 to n-1. This method only requires (n/XA_CHUNK_SHIFT) new xa_nodes instead of (n % XA_CHUNK_SHIFT) * (n/XA_CHUNK_SHIFT) new xa_nodes, compared to the original xas_split_alloc() + xas_split() one. For example, to split an order-9 large swap entry (assuming XA_CHUNK_SHIFT is 6), 1 xa_node is needed instead of 8. xas_try_split_min_order() is used to reduce the number of calls to xas_try_split() during split.

fs/pipe: add simpler helpers for common cases
The fix to atomically read the pipe head and tail state when not holding
the pipe mutex has caused a number of headaches due to the size change
of the involved types.
It turns out that we don't have _that_ many places that access these
fields directly and were affected, but we have more than we strictly
should have, because our low-level helper functions have been designed
to have intimate knowledge of how the pipes work.
And as a result, that random noise of direct 'pipe->head' and
'pipe->tail' accesses makes it harder to pinpoint any actual potential
problem spots remaining.
For example, we didn't have a "is the pipe full" helper function, but
instead had a "given these pipe buffer indexes and this pipe size, is
the pipe full". That's because some low-level pipe code does actually
want that much more complicated interface.
But most other places literally just want a "is the pipe full" helper,
and not having it meant that those places ended up being unnecessarily
much too aware of this all.
It would have been much better if only the very core pipe code that
cared had been the one aware of this all.
So let's fix it - better late than never. This just introduces the
trivial wrappers for "is this pipe full or empty" and to get how many
pipe buffers are used, so that instead of writing
if (pipe_full(pipe->head, pipe->tail, pipe->max_usage))
the places that literally just want to know if a pipe is full can just
say
if (pipe_is_full(pipe))
instead. The existing trivial cases were converted with a 'sed' script.
This cuts down on the places that access pipe->head and pipe->tail
directly outside of the pipe code (and core splice code) quite a lot.
The splice code in particular still revels in doing the direct low-level
accesses, and the fuse fuse_dev_splice_write() code also seems a bit
unnecessarily eager to go very low-level, but it's at least a bit better
than it used to be.

mm: shmem: fix potential data corruption during shmem swapin
Alex and Kairui reported some issues (system hang or data corruption) when swapping out or swapping in large shmem folios. This is especially easy to reproduce when the tmpfs is mount with the 'huge=within_size' parameter. Thanks to Kairui's reproducer, the issue can be easily replicated. The root cause of the problem is that swap readahead may asynchronously swap in order 0 folios into the swap cache, while the shmem mapping can still store large swap entries. Then an order 0 folio is inserted into the shmem mapping without splitting the large swap entry, which overwrites the original large swap entry, leading to data corruption. When getting a folio from the swap cache, we should split the large swap entry stored in the shmem mapping if the orders do not match, to fix this issue.

Change inode_operations.mkdir to return struct dentry *
Some filesystems, such as NFS, cifs, ceph, and fuse, do not have
complete control of sequencing on the actual filesystem (e.g. on a
different server) and may find that the inode created for a mkdir
request already exists in the icache and dcache by the time the mkdir
request returns. For example, if the filesystem is mounted twice the
directory could be visible on the other mount before it is on the
original mount, and a pair of name_to_handle_at(), open_by_handle_at()
calls could instantiate the directory inode with an IS_ROOT() dentry
before the first mkdir returns.
This means that the dentry passed to ->mkdir() may not be the one that
is associated with the inode after the ->mkdir() completes. Some
callers need to interact with the inode after the ->mkdir completes and
they currently need to perform a lookup in the (rare) case that the
dentry is no longer hashed.
This lookup-after-mkdir requires that the directory remains locked to
avoid races. Planned future patches to lock the dentry rather than the
directory will mean that this lookup cannot be performed atomically with
the mkdir.
To remove this barrier, this patch changes ->mkdir to return the
resulting dentry if it is different from the one passed in.
Possible returns are:
NULL - the directory was created and no other dentry was used
ERR_PTR() - an error occurred
non-NULL - this other dentry was spliced in
This patch only changes file-systems to return "ERR_PTR(err)" instead of
"err" or equivalent transformations. Subsequent patches will make
further changes to some file-systems to return a correct dentry.
Not all filesystems reliably result in a positive hashed dentry:
- NFS, cifs, hostfs will sometimes need to perform a lookup of
the name to get inode information. Races could result in this
returning something different. Note that this lookup is
non-atomic which is what we are trying to avoid. Placing the
lookup in filesystem code means it only happens when the filesystem
has no other option.
- kernfs and tracefs leave the dentry negative and the ->revalidate
operation ensures that lookup will be called to correctly populate
the dentry. This could be fixed but I don't think it is important
to any of the users of vfs_mkdir() which look at the dentry.
The recommendation to use
d_drop();d_splice_alias()
is ugly but fits with current practice. A planned future patch will
change this.

mm: shmem: skip swapcache for swapin of synchronous swap device
With fast swap devices (such as zram), swapin latency is crucial to applications. For shmem swapin, similar to anonymous memory swapin, we can skip the swapcache operation to improve swapin latency. Testing 1G shmem sequential swapin without THP enabled, I observed approximately a 6% performance improvement: (Note: I repeated 5 times and took the mean data for each test) w/o patch w/ patch changes 534.8ms 501ms +6.3% In addition, currently, we always split the large swap entry stored in the shmem mapping during shmem large folio swapin, which is not perfect, especially with a fast swap device. We should swap in the whole large folio instead of splitting the precious large folios to take advantage of the large folios and improve the swapin latency if the swap device is synchronous device, which is similar to anonymous memory mTHP swapin. Testing 1G shmem sequential swapin with 64K mTHP and 2M mTHP, I observed obvious performance improvement: mTHP=64K w/o patch w/ patch changes 550.4ms 169.6ms +69% mTHP=2M w/o patch w/ patch changes 542.8ms 126.8ms +77% Note that skipping swapcache requires attention to concurrent swapin scenarios. Fortunately the swapcache_prepare() and shmem_add_to_page_cache() can help identify concurrent swapin and large swap entry split scenarios, and return -EEXIST for retry.

"This improves the stable directory offset behavior in various ways.
Stable offsets are needed so that NFS can reliably read directories on
filesystems such as tmpfs:
- Improve the end-of-directory detection
According to getdents(3), the d_off field in each returned
directory entry points to the next entry in the directory. The
d_off field in the last returned entry in the readdir buffer must
contain a valid offset value, but if it points to an actual
directory entry, then readdir/getdents can loop.
Introduce a specific fixed offset value that is placed in the d_off
field of the last entry in a directory. Some user space
applications assume that the EOD offset value is larger than the
offsets of real directory entries, so the largest valid offset
value is reserved for this purpose. This new value is never
allocated by simple_offset_add().
When ->iterate_dir() returns, getdents{64} inserts the ctx->pos
value into the d_off field of the last valid entry in the readdir
buffer. When it hits EOD, offset_readdir() sets ctx->pos to the EOD
offset value so the last entry is updated to point to the EOD
marker.
When trying to read the entry at the EOD offset, offset_readdir()
terminates immediately.
- Rely on d_children to iterate stable offset directories
Instead of using the mtree to emit entries in the order of their
offset values, use it only to map incoming ctx->pos to a starting
entry. Then use the directory's d_children list, which is already
maintained properly by the dcache, to find the next child to emit.
- Narrow the range of directory offset values returned by
simple_offset_add() to 3 .. (S32_MAX - 1) on all platforms. This
means the allocation behavior is identical on 32-bit systems,
64-bit systems, and 32-bit user space on 64-bit kernels. The new
range still permits over 2 billion concurrent entries per
directory.
- Return ENOSPC when the directory offset range is exhausted. Hitting
this error is almost impossible though.
- Remove the simple_offset_empty() helper"

"Features:
- Support caching symlink lengths in inodes
The size is stored in a new union utilizing the same space as
i_devices, thus avoiding growing the struct or taking up any more
space
When utilized it dodges strlen() in vfs_readlink(), giving about
1.5% speed up when issuing readlink on /initrd.img on ext4
- Add RWF_DONTCACHE iocb and FOP_DONTCACHE file_operations flag
If a file system supports uncached buffered IO, it may set
FOP_DONTCACHE and enable support for RWF_DONTCACHE.
If RWF_DONTCACHE is attempted without the file system supporting
it, it'll get errored with -EOPNOTSUPP
- Enable VBOXGUEST and VBOXSF_FS on ARM64
Now that VirtualBox is able to run as a host on arm64 (e.g. the
Apple M3 processors) we can enable VBOXSF_FS (and in turn
VBOXGUEST) for this architecture.
Tested with various runs of bonnie++ and dbench on an Apple MacBook
Pro with the latest Virtualbox 7.1.4 r165100 installed
Cleanups:
- Delay sysctl_nr_open check in expand_files()
- Use kernel-doc includes in fiemap docbook
- Use page->private instead of page->index in watch_queue
- Use a consume fence in mnt_idmap() as it's heavily used in
link_path_walk()
- Replace magic number 7 with ARRAY_SIZE() in fc_log
- Sort out a stale comment about races between fd alloc and dup2()
- Fix return type of do_mount() from long to int

mm: perform all memfd seal checks in a single place
We no longer actually need to perform these checks in the f_op->mmap()
hook any longer.
We already moved the operation which clears VM_MAYWRITE on a read-only
mapping of a write-sealed memfd in order to work around the restrictions
imposed by commit 5de195060b2e ("mm: resolve faulty mmap_region() error
path behaviour").
There is no reason for us not to simply go ahead and additionally check to
see if any pre-existing seals are in place here rather than defer this to
the f_op->mmap() hook.
By doing this we remove more logic from shmem_mmap() which doesn't belong
there, as well as doing the same for hugetlbfs_file_mmap(). We also
remove dubious shared logic in mm.h which simply does not belong there
either.
It makes sense to do these checks at the earliest opportunity, we know
these are shmem (or hugetlbfs) mappings whose relevant VMA flags will not
change from the invoking do_mmap() so there is simply no need to wait.
This also means the implementation of further memfd seal flags can be done
within mm/memfd.c and also have the opportunity to modify VMA flags as
necessary early in the mapping logic.

mm/shmem: refactor to reuse vfs_parse_monolithic_sep for option parsing
shmem_parse_options() is refactored to use vfs_parse_monolithic_sep() with
a custom separator function, shmem_next_opt(). This eliminates redundant
logic for parsing comma-separated options and ensures consistency with
other kernel code that uses the same interface.
The vfs_parse_monolithic_sep() helper was introduced in commit
e001d1447cd4 ("fs: factor out vfs_parse_monolithic_sep() helper").

mm: shmem: add a kernel command line to change the default huge policy for tmpfs
Now the tmpfs can allow to allocate any sized large folios, and the default huge policy is still preferred to be 'never'. Due to tmpfs not behaving like other file systems in some cases as previously explained by David[1]: : I think I raised this in the past, but tmpfs/shmem is just like any : other file system .. except it sometimes really isn't and behaves much : more like (swappable) anonymous memory. (or mlocked files) : : There are many systems out there that run without swap enabled, or with : extremely minimal swap (IIRC until recently kubernetes was completely : incompatible with swapping). Swap can even be disabled today for shmem : using a mount option. : : That's a big difference to all other file systems where you are : guaranteed to have backend storage where you can simply evict under : memory pressure (might temporarily fail, of course). : : I *think* that's the reason why we have the "huge=" parameter that also : controls the THP allocations during page faults (IOW possible memory : over-allocation). Maybe also because it was a new feature, and we only : had a single THP size. Thus adding a new command line to change the default huge policy will be helpful to use the large folios for tmpfs, which is similar to the 'transparent_hugepage_shmem' cmdline for shmem.

mm: shmem: add large folio support for tmpfs
Add large folio support for tmpfs write and fallocate paths matching the same high order preference mechanism used in the iomap buffered IO path as used in __filemap_get_folio(). Add shmem_mapping_size_orders() to get a hint for the orders of the folio based on the file size which takes care of the mapping requirements. Traditionally, tmpfs only supported PMD-sized large folios. However nowadays with other file systems supporting any sized large folios, and extending anonymous to support mTHP, we should not restrict tmpfs to allocating only PMD-sized large folios, making it more special. Instead, we should allow tmpfs can allocate any sized large folios. Considering that tmpfs already has the 'huge=' option to control the PMD-sized large folios allocation, we can extend the 'huge=' option to allow any sized large folios. The semantics of the 'huge=' mount option are: huge=never: no any sized large folios huge=always: any sized large folios huge=within_size: like 'always' but respect the i_size huge=advise: like 'always' if requested with madvise() Note: for tmpfs mmap() faults, due to the lack of a write size hint, still allocate the PMD-sized huge folios if huge=always/within_size/advise is set. Moreover, the 'deny' and 'force' testing options controlled by '/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/shmem_enabled', still retain the same semantics. The 'deny' can disable any sized large folios for tmpfs, while the 'force' can enable PMD sized large folios for tmpfs.

mm: shmem: fix the update of 'shmem_falloc->nr_unswapped'
The 'shmem_falloc->nr_unswapped' is used to record how many writepage refused to swap out because fallocate() is allocating, but after shmem supports large folio swap out, the update of 'shmem_falloc->nr_unswapped' does not use the correct number of pages in the large folio, which may lead to fallocate() not exiting as soon as possible.

Pull vfs multigrain timestamps from Christian Brauner:
"This is another try at implementing multigrain timestamps. This time
with significant help from the timekeeping maintainers to reduce the
performance impact.
Thomas provided a base branch that contains the required timekeeping
interfaces for the VFS. It serves as the base for the multi-grain
timestamp work:
- Multigrain timestamps allow the kernel to use fine-grained
timestamps when an inode's attributes is being actively observed
via ->getattr(). With this support, it's possible for a file to get
a fine-grained timestamp, and another modified after it to get a
coarse-grained stamp that is earlier than the fine-grained time. If
this happens then the files can appear to have been modified in
reverse order, which breaks VFS ordering guarantees.
To prevent this, a floor value is maintained for multigrain
timestamps. Whenever a fine-grained timestamp is handed out, record
it, and when later coarse-grained stamps are handed out, ensure
they are not earlier than that value. If the coarse-grained
timestamp is earlier than the fine-grained floor, return the floor
value instead.
The timekeeper changes add a static singleton atomic64_t into
timekeeper.c that is used to keep track of the latest fine-grained
time ever handed out. This is tracked as a monotonic ktime_t value
to ensure that it isn't affected by clock jumps. Because it is
updated at different times than the rest of the timekeeper object,
the floor value is managed independently of the timekeeper via a
cmpxchg() operation, and sits on its own cacheline.
Two new public timekeeper interfaces are added:
(1) ktime_get_coarse_real_ts64_mg() fills a timespec64 with the
later of the coarse-grained clock and the floor time
(2) ktime_get_real_ts64_mg() gets the fine-grained clock value,
and tries to swap it into the floor. A timespec64 is filled
with the result.
- The VFS has always used coarse-grained timestamps when updating the
ctime and mtime after a change. This has the benefit of allowing
filesystems to optimize away a lot metadata updates, down to around
1 per jiffy, even when a file is under heavy writes.
Unfortunately, this has always been an issue when we're exporting
via NFSv3, which relies on timestamps to validate caches. A lot of
changes can happen in a jiffy, so timestamps aren't sufficient to
help the client decide when to invalidate the cache. Even with
NFSv4, a lot of exported filesystems don't properly support a
change attribute and are subject to the same problems with
timestamp granularity. Other applications have similar issues with
timestamps (e.g backup applications).
If we were to always use fine-grained timestamps, that would
improve the situation, but that becomes rather expensive, as the
underlying filesystem would have to log a lot more metadata
updates.
This adds a way to only use fine-grained timestamps when they are
being actively queried. Use the (unused) top bit in
inode->i_ctime_nsec as a flag that indicates whether the current
timestamps have been queried via stat() or the like. When it's set,
we allow the kernel to use a fine-grained timestamp iff it's
necessary to make the ctime show a different value.
This solves the problem of being able to distinguish the timestamp
between updates, but introduces a new problem: it's now possible
for a file being changed to get a fine-grained timestamp. A file
that is altered just a bit later can then get a coarse-grained one
that appears older than the earlier fine-grained time. This
violates timestamp ordering guarantees.
This is where the earlier mentioned timkeeping interfaces help. A
global monotonic atomic64_t value is kept that acts as a timestamp
floor. When we go to stamp a file, we first get the latter of the
current floor value and the current coarse-grained time. If the
inode ctime hasn't been queried then we just attempt to stamp it
with that value.
If it has been queried, then first see whether the current coarse
time is later than the existing ctime. If it is, then we accept
that value. If it isn't, then we get a fine-grained time and try to
swap that into the global floor. Whether that succeeds or fails, we
take the resulting floor time, convert it to realtime and try to
swap that into the ctime.
We take the result of the ctime swap whether it succeeds or fails,
since either is just as valid.
Filesystems can opt into this by setting the FS_MGTIME fstype flag.
Others should be unaffected (other than being subject to the same
floor value as multigrain filesystems)"

mm: shmem: override mTHP shmem default with a kernel parameter
Add the ``thp_shmem=`` kernel command line to allow specifying the default policy of each supported shmem hugepage size. The kernel parameter accepts the following format: thp_shmem=<size>[KMG],<size>[KMG]:<policy>;<size>[KMG]-<size>[KMG]:<policy> For example, thp_shmem=16K-64K:always;128K,512K:inherit;256K:advise;1M-2M:never;4M-8M:within_size Some GPUs may benefit from using huge pages. Since DRM GEM uses shmem to allocate anonymous pageable memory, it's essential to control the huge page allocation policy for the internal shmem mount. This control can be achieved through the ``transparent_hugepage_shmem=`` parameter. Beyond just setting the allocation policy, it's crucial to have granular control over the size of huge pages that can be allocated. The GPU may support only specific huge page sizes, and allocating pages larger/smaller than those sizes would be ineffective.

mm: shmem: control THP support through the kernel command line
Patch series "mm: add more kernel parameters to control mTHP", v5. This series introduces four patches related to the kernel parameters controlling mTHP and a fifth patch replacing `strcpy()` for `strscpy()` in the file `mm/huge_memory.c`. The first patch is a straightforward documentation update, correcting the format of the kernel parameter ``thp_anon=``. The second, third, and fourth patches focus on controlling THP support for shmem via the kernel command line. The second patch introduces a parameter to control the global default huge page allocation policy for the internal shmem mount. The third patch moves a piece of code to a shared header to ease the implementation of the fourth patch. Finally, the fourth patch implements a parameter similar to ``thp_anon=``, but for shmem. The goal of these changes is to simplify the configuration of systems that rely on mTHP support for shmem. For instance, a platform with a GPU that benefits from huge pages may want to enable huge pages for shmem. Having these kernel parameters streamlines the configuration process and ensures consistency across setups. This patch (of 4): Add a new kernel command line to control the hugepage allocation policy for the internal shmem mount, ``transparent_hugepage_shmem``. The parameter is similar to ``transparent_hugepage`` and has the following format: transparent_hugepage_shmem=<policy> where ``<policy>`` is one of the seven valid policies available for shmem. Configuring the default huge page allocation policy for the internal shmem mount can be beneficial for DRM GPU drivers. Just as CPU architectures, GPUs can also take advantage of huge pages, but this is possible only if DRM GEM objects are backed by huge pages. Since GEM uses shmem to allocate anonymous pageable memory, having control over the default huge page allocation policy allows for the exploration of huge pages use on GPUs that rely on GEM objects backed by shmem.

mm: shmem: fallback to page size splice if large folio has poisoned pages
The tmpfs has already supported the PMD-sized large folios, and splice() can not read any pages if the large folio has a poisoned page, which is not good as Matthew pointed out in a previous email[1]: "so if we have hwpoison set on one page in a folio, we now can't read bytes from any page in the folio? That seems like we've made a bad situation worse." Thus add a fallback to the PAGE_SIZE splice() still allows reading normal pages if the large folio has hwpoisoned pages.

mm: shmem: improve the tmpfs large folio read performance
tmpfs already supports PMD-sized large folios, but the tmpfs read operation still performs copying at PAGE_SIZE granularity, which is unreasonable. This patch changes tmpfs to copy data at folio granularity, which can improve the read performance, as well as changing to use folio related functions. Moreover, if a large folio has a subpage that is hwpoisoned, it will still fall back to page granularity copying. Use 'fio bs=64k' to read a 1G tmpfs file populated with 2M THPs, and I can see about 20% performance improvement, and no regression with bs=4k.

tmpfs: don't enable large folios if not supported
tmpfs can support large folios, but there are some configurable options
(mount options and runtime deny/force) to enable/disable large folio
allocation, so there is a performance issue when performing writes without
large folios. The issue is similar to commit 4e527d5841e2 ("iomap: fault
in smaller chunks for non-large folio mappings").
Since 'deny' is for emergencies and 'force' is for testing, performance
issues should not be a problem in real production environments, so don't
call mapping_set_large_folios() in __shmem_get_inode() when large folio is
disabled with mount huge=never option (default policy).

tmpfs: Fix type for sysfs' casefold attribute
DEVICE_STRING_ATTR_RO should be only used by device drivers since it
relies on `struct device` to use device_show_string() function. Using
this with non device code led to a kCFI violation:
> cat /sys/fs/tmpfs/features/casefold
[ 70.558496] CFI failure at kobj_attr_show+0x2c/0x4c (target: device_show_string+0x0/0x38; expected type: 0xc527b809)
Like the other filesystems, fix this by manually declaring the attribute
using kobj_attribute() and writing a proper show() function.
Also, leave macros for anyone that need to expand tmpfs sysfs' with
more attributes.

Shmem has a separate interface (different from anonymous pages) to control huge page allocation, that means shmem THP can be enabled while anonymous THP is disabled. However, in this case, khugepaged will not start to collapse shmem THP, which is unreasonable. To fix this issue, we should call start_stop_khugepaged() to activate or deactivate the khugepaged thread when setting shmem mTHP interfaces. Moreover, add a new helper shmem_hpage_pmd_enabled() to help to check whether shmem THP is enabled, which will determine if khugepaged should be activated.

mm: refactor arch_calc_vm_flag_bits() and arm64 MTE handling
Currently MTE is permitted in two circumstances (desiring to use MTE having been specified by the VM_MTE flag) - where MAP_ANONYMOUS is specified, as checked by arch_calc_vm_flag_bits() and actualised by setting the VM_MTE_ALLOWED flag, or if the file backing the mapping is shmem, in which case we set VM_MTE_ALLOWED in shmem_mmap() when the mmap hook is activated in mmap_region(). The function that checks that, if VM_MTE is set, VM_MTE_ALLOWED is also set is the arm64 implementation of arch_validate_flags(). Unfortunately, we intend to refactor mmap_region() to perform this check earlier, meaning that in the case of a shmem backing we will not have invoked shmem_mmap() yet, causing the mapping to fail spuriously. It is inappropriate to set this architecture-specific flag in general mm code anyway, so a sensible resolution of this issue is to instead move the check somewhere else. We resolve this by setting VM_MTE_ALLOWED much earlier in do_mmap(), via the arch_calc_vm_flag_bits() call. This is an appropriate place to do this as we already check for the MAP_ANONYMOUS case here, and the shmem file case is simply a variant of the same idea - we permit RAM-backed memory. This requires a modification to the arch_calc_vm_flag_bits() signature to pass in a pointer to the struct file associated with the mapping, however this is not too egregious as this is only used by two architectures anyway - arm64 and parisc. So this patch performs this adjustment and removes the unnecessary assignment of VM_MTE_ALLOWED in shmem_mmap().

Since there is no special protection when shmem_getattr() calls generic_fillattr(), data-race occurs by functions such as shmem_unlink() or shmem_mknod(). This can cause unexpected results, so commenting it out is not enough. Therefore, when calling generic_fillattr() from shmem_getattr(), it is appropriate to protect the inode using inode_lock_shared() and inode_unlock_shared() to prevent data-race.
