This commit adds the writeback mechanism for zsmalloc, analogous to the
zbud allocator. Zsmalloc will attempt to determine the coldest zspage
(i.e least recently used) in the pool, and attempt to write back all the
stored compressed objects via the pool's evict handler.

Currently, zsmalloc has a hierarchy of locks, which includes a pool-level
migrate_lock, and a lock for each size class. We have to obtain both
locks in the hotpath in most cases anyway, except for zs_malloc. This
exception will no longer exist when we introduce a LRU into the zs_pool
for the new writeback functionality - we will need to obtain a pool-level
lock to synchronize LRU handling even in zs_malloc.
In preparation for zsmalloc writeback, consolidate these locks into a
single pool-level lock, which drastically reduces the complexity of
synchronization in zsmalloc.
We have also benchmarked the lock consolidation to see the performance
effect of this change on zram.
First, we ran a synthetic FS workload on a server machine with 36 cores
(same machine for all runs), using
fs_mark -d ../zram1mnt -s 100000 -n 2500 -t 32 -k
before and after for btrfs and ext4 on zram (FS usage is 80%).
Here is the result (unit is file/second):
With lock consolidation (btrfs):
Average: 13520.2, Median: 13531.0, Stddev: 137.5961482019028
Without lock consolidation (btrfs):
Average: 13487.2, Median: 13575.0, Stddev: 309.08283679298665
With lock consolidation (ext4):
Average: 16824.4, Median: 16839.0, Stddev: 89.97388510006668
Without lock consolidation (ext4)
Average: 16958.0, Median: 16986.0, Stddev: 194.7370021336469
As you can see, we observe a 0.3% regression for btrfs, and a 0.9%
regression for ext4. This is a small, barely measurable difference in my
opinion.
For a more realistic scenario, we also tries building the kernel on zram.
Here is the time it takes (in seconds):
With lock consolidation (btrfs):
real
Average: 319.6, Median: 320.0, Stddev: 0.8944271909999159
user

The difference is entirely within the noise of a typical run on zram.
This hardly justifies the complexity of maintaining both the pool lock and
the class lock. In fact, for writeback, we would need to introduce yet
another lock to prevent data races on the pool's LRU, further complicating
the lock handling logic. IMHO, it is just better to collapse all of these
into a single pool-level lock.

There is a lot of provision for flexibility that isn't actually needed or
used. Zswap (the only zpool user) always passes zpool_ops with an .evict
method set. The backends who reclaim only do so for zswap, so they can
also directly call zpool_ops without indirection or checks.
Finally, there is no need to check the retries parameters and bail with
-EINVAL in the reclaim function, when that's called just a few lines below
with a hard-coded 8. There is no need to duplicate the evictable and
sleep_mapped attrs from the driver in zpool_ops.

Patch series "Implement writeback for zsmalloc", v7.
Unlike other zswap allocators such as zbud or z3fold, zsmalloc currently
lacks the writeback mechanism. This means that when the zswap pool is
full, it will simply reject further allocations, and the pages will be
written directly to swap.
This series of patches implements writeback for zsmalloc. When the zswap
pool becomes full, zsmalloc will attempt to evict all the compressed
objects in the least-recently used zspages.
This patch (of 6):
zswap's customary lock order is tree->lock before pool->lock, because the
tree->lock protects the entries' refcount, and the free callbacks in the
backends acquire their respective pool locks to dispatch the backing
object. zsmalloc's map callback takes the pool lock, so zswap must not
grab the tree->lock while a handle is mapped. This currently only happens
during writeback, which isn't implemented for zsmalloc. In preparation
for it, move the tree->lock section out of the mapped entry section

When MADV_PAGEOUT is called on a private file mapping VMA region, we bail
out early if the process is neither owner nor write capable of the file.
However, this VMA may have both private/shared clean pages and private
dirty pages. The opportunity of paging out the private dirty pages (Anon
pages) is missed. Fix this behavior by allowing private file mappings
pageout further and perform the file access check along with PageAnon()
during page walk.
We observe ~10% improvement in zram usage, thus leaving more available
memory on a 4GB RAM system running Android.

FOLL_MIGRATION exists only for the purpose of break_ksm(), and actually,
there is not even the need to wait for the migration to finish, we only
want to know if we're dealing with a KSM page.
Using follow_page() just to identify a KSM page overcomplicates GUP code.
Let's use walk_page_range_vma() instead, because we don't actually care
about the page itself, we only need to know a single property -- no need
to even grab a reference.
So, get rid of follow_page() usage such that we can get rid of
FOLL_MIGRATION now and eventually be able to get rid of follow_page() in
the future.
In my setup (AMD Ryzen 9 3900X), running the KSM selftest to test unmerge
performance on 2 GiB (taskset 0x8 ./ksm_tests -D -s 2048), this results in
a performance degradation of ~2% (old: ~5010 MiB/s, new: ~4900 MiB/s). I
don't think we particularly care for now.
Interestingly, the benchmark reduction is due to the single callback.
Adding a second callback (e.g., pud_entry()) reduces the benchmark by
another 100-200 MiB/s.

Let's stop breaking COW via a fake write fault and let's use
FAULT_FLAG_UNSHARE instead. This avoids any wrong side effects of the
fake write fault, such as mapping the PTE writable and marking the pte
dirty/softdirty.
Consequently, we will no longer trigger a fake write fault and break COW
without any such side-effects.
Also, this fixes KSM interaction with userfaultfd-wp: when we have a KSM
page that's write-protected by userfaultfd, break_ksm()->handle_mm_fault()
will fail with VM_FAULT_SIGBUS and will simply return in break_ksm() with
0 instead of actually breaking COW.
For now, the KSM unmerge tests can trigger that:
$ sudo ./ksm_functional_tests
TAP version 13
1..3
# [RUN] test_unmerge
ok 1 Pages were unmerged
# [RUN] test_unmerge_discarded
ok 2 Pages were unmerged
# [RUN] test_unmerge_uffd_wp
not ok 3 Pages were unmerged
Bail out! 1 out of 3 tests failed
# Planned tests != run tests (2 != 3)
# Totals: pass:2 fail:1 xfail:0 xpass:0 skip:0 error:0
The warning in dmesg also indicates this wrong handling:

Now that GUP no longer requires VM_FAULT_WRITE, break_ksm() is the sole
remaining user of VM_FAULT_WRITE. As we also want to stop triggering a
fake write fault and instead use FAULT_FLAG_UNSHARE -- similar to
GUP-triggered unsharing when taking a R/O pin on a shared anonymous page
(including KSM pages), let's stop relying on VM_FAULT_WRITE.
Let's rework break_ksm() to not rely on the return value of
handle_mm_fault() anymore to figure out whether COW-breaking was
successful. Simply perform another follow_page() lookup to verify the
result.
While this makes break_ksm() slightly less efficient, we can simplify
handle_mm_fault() a little and easily switch to FAULT_FLAG_UNSHARE without
introducing similar KSM-specific behavior for FAULT_FLAG_UNSHARE.
In my setup (AMD Ryzen 9 3900X), running the KSM selftest to test unmerge
performance on 2 GiB (taskset 0x8 ./ksm_tests -D -s 2048), this results in
a performance degradation of ~4% -- 5% (old: ~5250 MiB/s, new: ~5010
MiB/s).
I don't think that we particularly care about that performance drop when
unmerging. If it ever turns out to be an actual performance issue, we can
think about a better alternative for FAULT_FLAG_UNSHARE -- let's just keep
it simple for now.

Patch series "mm/ksm: break_ksm() cleanups and fixes", v2.
This series cleans up and fixes break_ksm(). In summary, we no longer use
fake write faults to break COW but instead FAULT_FLAG_UNSHARE. Further,
we move away from using follow_page() --- that we can hopefully remove
completely at one point --- and use new walk_page_range_vma() instead.
Fortunately, we can get rid of VM_FAULT_WRITE and FOLL_MIGRATION in common
code now.
Extend the existing ksm tests by an unmerge benchmark, and a some new
unmerge tests.
Also, add a selftest to measure MADV_UNMERGEABLE performance. In my setup
(AMD Ryzen 9 3900X), running the KSM selftest to test unmerge performance
on 2 GiB (taskset 0x8 ./ksm_tests -D -s 2048), this results in a
performance degradation of ~6% -- 7% (old: ~5250 MiB/s, new: ~4900 MiB/s).
I don't think we particularly care for now, but it's good to be aware of
the implication.
This patch (of 9):
Let's add three unmerge tests (MADV_UNMERGEABLE unmerging all pages in the
range).
test_unmerge(): basic unmerge tests
test_unmerge_discarded(): have some pte_none() entries in the range
test_unmerge_uffd_wp(): protect the merged pages using uffd-wp
ksm_tests.c currently contains a mixture of benchmarks and tests, whereby
each test is carried out by executing the ksm_tests binary with specific
parameters. Let's add new ksm_functional_tests.c that performs multiple,
smaller functional tests all at once.

Our memory management kernel CI testing at Red Hat uses the VM
selftests and we have run into two problems:
First, our LTP tests overlap with the VM selftests.
We want to avoid unhelpful redundancy in our testing practices.
Second, we have observed the current run_vmtests.sh to report overall
failure/ambiguous results in the case that a machine lacks the necessary
hardware to perform one or more of the tests. E.g. ksm tests that
require more than one numa node.
We want to be able to run the vm selftests suitable to particular hardware.
Add the ability to run one or more groups of vm tests via run_vmtests.sh
instead of simply all-or-none in order to solve these problems.
Preserve existing default behavior of running all tests when the script
is invoked with no arguments.
Documentation of test groups is included in the patch as follows:
# ./run_vmtests.sh [ -h || --help ]
usage: ./tools/testing/selftests/vm/run_vmtests.sh [ -h | -t "<categories>"]
-t: specify specific categories to tests to run
-h: display this message
The default behavior is to run all tests.
Alternatively, specific groups tests can be run by passing a string
to the -t argument containing one or more of the following categories
separated by spaces:
- mmap
tests for mmap(2)
- gup_test
tests for gup using gup_test interface
- userfaultfd
tests for userfaultfd(2)
- compaction
a test for the patch "Allow compaction of unevictable pages"
- mlock
tests for mlock(2)
- mremap
tests for mremap(2)
- hugevm
tests for very large virtual address space
- vmalloc
vmalloc smoke tests
- hmm
hmm smoke tests
- madv_populate
test memadvise(2) MADV_POPULATE_{READ,WRITE} options
- memfd_secret

- process_mrelease

memcg_write_event_control() accesses the dentry->d_name of the specified
control fd to route the write call. As a cgroup interface file can't be
renamed, it's safe to access d_name as long as the specified file is a
regular cgroup file. Also, as these cgroup interface files can't be
removed before the directory, it's safe to access the parent too.
Prior to 347c4a8747 ("memcg: remove cgroup_event->cft"), there was a
call to __file_cft() which verified that the specified file is a regular
cgroupfs file before further accesses. The cftype pointer returned from
__file_cft() was no longer necessary and the commit inadvertently dropped
the file type check with it allowing any file to slip through. With the
invarients broken, the d_name and parent accesses can now race against
renames and removals of arbitrary files and cause use-after-free's.
Fix the bug by resurrecting the file type check in __file_cft(). Now that
cgroupfs is implemented through kernfs, checking the file operations needs
to go through a layer of indirection. Instead, let's check the superblock
and dentry type.

Add more sanity checks to the VMA that do_brk_flags() will expand. Ensure
the VMA matches basic merge requirements within the function before
calling can_vma_merge_after().
Drop the duplicate checks from vm_brk_flags() since they will be enforced
later.
The old code would expand file VMAs on brk(), which is functionally
wrong and also dangerous in terms of locking because the brk() path
isn't designed for file VMAs and therefore doesn't lock the file
mapping. Checking can_vma_merge_after() ensures that new anonymous
VMAs can't be merged into file VMAs.

We use "unsigned long" to store a PFN in the kernel and phys_addr_t to
store a physical address.
On a 64bit system, both are 64bit wide. However, on a 32bit system, the
latter might be 64bit wide. This is, for example, the case on x86 with
PAE: phys_addr_t and PTEs are 64bit wide, while "unsigned long" only spans
32bit.
The current definition of SWP_PFN_BITS without MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS misses
that case, and assumes that the maximum PFN is limited by an 32bit
phys_addr_t. This implies, that SWP_PFN_BITS will currently only be able
to cover 4 GiB - 1 on any 32bit system with 4k page size, which is wrong.
Let's rely on the number of bits in phys_addr_t instead, but make sure to
not exceed the maximum swap offset, to not make the BUILD_BUG_ON() in
is_pfn_swap_entry() unhappy. Note that swp_entry_t is effectively an
unsigned long and the maximum swap offset shares that value with the swap
type.
For example, on an 8 GiB x86 PAE system with a kernel config based on
Debian 11.5 (-> CONFIG_FLATMEM=y, CONFIG_X86_PAE=y), we will currently
fail removing migration entries (remove_migration_ptes()), because
mm/page_vma_mapped.c:check_pte() will fail to identify a PFN match as
swp_offset_pfn() wrongly masks off PFN bits. For example,
split_huge_page_to_list()->...->remap_page() will leave migration entries
in place and continue to unlock the page.
Later, when we stumble over these migration entries (e.g., via
/proc/self/pagemap), pfn_swap_entry_to_page() will BUG_ON() because these
migration entries shouldn't exist anymore and the page was unlocked.

Fix tmpfs data loss when the fallocate system call is interrupted by a
signal, or fails for some other reason. The partial folio handling in
shmem_undo_range() forgot to consider this unfalloc case, and was liable
to erase or truncate out data which had already been committed earlier.
It turns out that none of the partial folio handling there is appropriate
for the unfalloc case, which just wants to proceed to removal of whole
folios: which find_get_entries() provides, even when partially covered.

We used to have 624a2c94f5 (Partly revert "mm/thp: carry over dirty bit
when thp splits on pmd") fixing the regression reported here by Anatoly
Pugachev on sparc64:
https://lore.kernel.org/r/20221021160603.GA23307@u164.east.ru
Where we temporarily ignored the dirty bit for small pages.
Then, Hev also reported similar issue on loongarch:
(the original mail was private, but Anatoly copied the list here)
https://lore.kernel.org/r/CADxRZqxqb7f_WhMh=jweZP+ynf_JwGd-0VwbYgp4P+T0-AXosw@mail.gmail.com
Hev pointed out that the issue is having HW write bit set within the
pte_mkdirty() so the split pte can be written after split even if e.g.
they were shared by more than one processes, causing data corrupt.
Hev also tried to explain why loongarch set HW write bit in mkdirty:
https://lore.kernel.org/r/CAHirt9itKO_K_HPboXh5AyJtt16Zf0cD73PtHvM=na39u_ztxA@mail.gmail.com
One way to fix it is as what Huacai proposed here for loongarch (then we
can re-apply the dirty bit in thp split):
https://lore.kernel.org/r/20221117042532.4064448-1-chenhuacai@loongson.cnn
We may need similar thing for sparc64, though.
For now since we've found the root cause of the dirty bit issue the
simpler solution (which won't lose the dirty bit for small) that will work
for both is we wr-protect after pte_mkdirty(), so the HW write bit can be
persistent after thp split.
Add a comment for wrprotect, so we will not mess up the ordering later.
With 624a2c94f5 (Partly revert "mm/thp: carry over dirty bit when thp
splits on pmd") this is not a fix anymore, but just brings back the dirty
bit for thp split safely, so we re-apply the optimization but in safe way.
Provide a Tested-by credit to Hev too (not the exact same patch but the
same outcome) for loongarch.

Depending on the memory configuration, isolate_freepages_block() may scan
pages out of the target range and causes panic.
Panic can occur on systems with multiple zones in a single pageblock.
The reason it is rare is that it only happens in special
configurations. Depending on how many similar systems there are, it
may be a good idea to fix this problem for older kernels as well.
The problem is that pfn as argument of fast_isolate_around() could be out
of the target range. Therefore we should consider the case where pfn <
start_pfn, and also the case where end_pfn < pfn.
This problem should have been addressd by the commit 6e2b7044c1 ("mm,
compaction: make fast_isolate_freepages() stay within zone") but there was
an oversight.
Case1: pfn < start_pfn
<at memory compaction for node Y>
| node X's zone | node Y's zone
+-----------------+------------------------------...
pageblock ^ ^ ^
+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+...
^ ^ ^
^ ^ end_pfn
^ start_pfn = cc->zone->zone_start_pfn
pfn
<---------> scanned range by "Scan After"
Case2: end_pfn < pfn
<at memory compaction for node X>
| node X's zone | node Y's zone
+-----------------+------------------------------...
pageblock ^ ^ ^
+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+...
^ ^ ^
^ ^ pfn
^ end_pfn
start_pfn
<---------> scanned range by "Scan Before"
It seems that there is no good reason to skip nr_isolated pages just after
given pfn. So let perform simple scan from start to end instead of
dividing the scan into "Before" and "After".

This adds the max_ratio_fine knob. The knob specifies the values not
based on 1 of 100, but instead 1 per million.

bdi has two existing knobs to limit the amount of dirty memory:
min_ratio and max_ratio. However the granularity of the knobs is limited
and often it is more convenient to specify limits in terms of bytes.
This change adds the min_bytes knob.
It does not store the min_bytes value, instead it converts the max_bytes
value to a ratio. The value is therefore more an approximation than an
absolute value.
It also maintains the sum over all the bdi min_ratio values stored in
the variable bdi_min_ratio.

This introduces the bdi_set_min_bytes() function. The min_bytes function
does not store the min_bytes value. Instead it converts the min_bytes
value into the corresponding ratio value.

This splits off the __bdi_set_min_ratio() function from the
bdi_set_min_ratio() function. The __bdi_set_min_ratio() function will
also be called from the bdi_set_min_bytes() function, which will be
introduced in the next patch.

This adds a function to return the specified value for min_bytes. It
converts the stored min_ratio of the bdi to the corresponding bytes
value. This is an approximation as it is based on the value that is
returned by global_dirty_limits(), which can change. The returned
value can be different than the value when the min_bytes value was set.
