Patch series "MM folio changes for 6.1", v2.
My focus this round has been on shmem. I believe it is now fully
converted to folios. Of course, shmem interacts with a lot of the swap
cache and other parts of the kernel, so there are patches all over the MM.
This patch series survives a round of xfstests on tmpfs, which is nice,
but hardly an exhaustive test. Hugh was nice enough to run a round of
tests on it and found a bug which is fixed in this edition.
This patch (of 57):
A lot of comments mention pages when they should say folios.

It was biscted to commit c7323a5ad078 ("mm/slub: restrict sysfs
validation to debug caches and make it safe")
The problem is inside free_debug_processing(), under certain
circumstances the slab can be removed from the partial list but not
freed by discard_slab() and thus n->nr_slabs is not decreased
accordingly. During shutdown, this non-zero n->nr_slabs is detected and
reported.
Specifically, the problem is that there are two checks for detecting a
full partial list by comparing n->nr_partial >= s->min_partial where the
latter check is affected by remove_partial() decreasing n->nr_partial
between the checks. Reoganize the code so there is a single check
upfront.

Resolved a conflict of modifying mm/slab.c __ksize() comment with a commit that
unifies __ksize() implementation into mm/slab_common.c
A patch from Feng Tang that enhances the existing debugfs alloc_traces
file for kmalloc caches with information about how much space is wasted
by allocations that needs less space than the particular kmalloc cache
provides.
In the effort to help the compiler reason about buffer sizes, the
__alloc_size attribute was added to allocators. This improves the scope
of the compiler's ability to apply CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS and (in the near
future) CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE. For most allocations, this works well,
as the vast majority of callers are not expecting to use more memory
than what they asked for.
There is, however, one common exception to this: anticipatory resizing
of kmalloc allocations. These cases all use ksize() to determine the
actual bucket size of a given allocation (e.g. 128 when 126 was asked
for). This comes in two styles in the kernel:
1) An allocation has been determined to be too small, and needs to be
resized. Instead of the caller choosing its own next best size, it
wants to minimize the number of calls to krealloc(), so it just uses
ksize() plus some additional bytes, forcing the realloc into the next
bucket size, from which it can learn how large it is now. For example:
data = krealloc(data, ksize(data) + 1, gfp);
data_len = ksize(data);
2) The minimum size of an allocation is calculated, but since it may
grow in the future, just use all the space available in the chosen
bucket immediately, to avoid needing to reallocate later. A good
example of this is skbuff's allocators:
data = kmalloc_reserve(size, gfp_mask, node, &pfmemalloc);
...
/* kmalloc(size) might give us more room than requested.
* Put skb_shared_info exactly at the end of allocated zone,
* to allow max possible filling before reallocation.
*/
osize = ksize(data);
size = SKB_WITH_OVERHEAD(osize);
In both cases, the "how much was actually allocated?" question is answered
_after_ the allocation, where the compiler hinting is not in an easy place
to make the association any more. This mismatch between the compiler's
view of the buffer length and the code's intention about how much it is
going to actually use has already caused problems[1]. It is possible to
fix this by reordering the use of the "actual size" information.
We can serve the needs of users of ksize() and still have accurate buffer
length hinting for the compiler by doing the bucket size calculation
_before_ the allocation. Code can instead ask "how large an allocation
would I get for a given size?".
Introduce kmalloc_size_roundup(), to serve this function so we can start
replacing the "anticipatory resizing" uses of ksize().

The __malloc attribute should not be applied to "realloc" functions, as
the returned pointer may alias the storage of the prior pointer. Instead
of splitting __malloc from __alloc_size, which would be a huge amount of
churn, just create __realloc_size for the few cases where it is needed.
Thanks to Geert Uytterhoeven <geert@linux-m68k.org> for reporting build
failures with gcc-8 in earlier version which tried to remove the #ifdef.
While the "alloc_size" attribute is available on all GCC versions, I
forgot that it gets disabled explicitly by the kernel in GCC < 9.1 due
to misbehaviors. Add a note to the compiler_attributes.h entry for it.

Patch series "ksm: count allocated rmap_items and update documentation",

KSM can save memory by merging identical pages, but also can consume
additional memory, because it needs to generate rmap_items to save each
scanned page's brief rmap information.
To determine how beneficial the ksm-policy (like madvise), they are using
brings, so we add a new interface /proc/<pid>/ksm_stat for each process
The value "ksm_rmap_items" in it indicates the total allocated ksm
rmap_items of this process.

KSM can save memory by merging identical pages, but also can consume
additional memory, because it needs to generate rmap_items to save each
scanned page's brief rmap information. Some of these pages may be merged,
but some may not be abled to be merged after being checked several times,
which are unprofitable memory consumed.
The information about whether KSM save memory or consume memory in
system-wide range can be determined by the comprehensive calculation of
pages_sharing, pages_shared, pages_unshared and pages_volatile. A simple
approximate calculation:
profit =~ pages_sharing * sizeof(page) - (all_rmap_items) *
sizeof(rmap_item);
where all_rmap_items equals to the sum of pages_sharing, pages_shared,
pages_unshared and pages_volatile.
But we cannot calculate this kind of ksm profit inner single-process wide
because the information of ksm rmap_item's number of a process is lacked.
For user applications, if this kind of information could be obtained, it
helps upper users know how beneficial the ksm-policy (like madvise) they
are using brings, and then optimize their app code. For example, one
application madvise 1000 pages as MERGEABLE, while only a few pages are
really merged, then it's not cost-efficient.
So we add a new interface /proc/<pid>/ksm_stat for each process in which
the value of ksm_rmap_itmes is only shown now and so more values can be
added in future.
So similarly, we can calculate the ksm profit approximately for a single
process by:
profit =~ ksm_merging_pages * sizeof(page) - ksm_rmap_items *
sizeof(rmap_item);
where ksm_merging_pages is shown at /proc/<pid>/ksm_merging_pages, and
ksm_rmap_items is shown in /proc/<pid>/ksm_stat.

While discussing early DMA pool pre-allocation failure with Christoph [1]
I have realized that the allocation failure warning is rather noisy for
constrained allocations like GFP_DMA{32}. Those zones are usually not
populated on all nodes very often as their memory ranges are constrained.
This is an attempt to reduce the ballast that doesn't provide any relevant
information for those allocation failures investigation. Please note that
I have only compile tested it (in my default config setup) and I am
throwing it mostly to see what people think about it.

There seems to be no reason why FOLL_FORCE during GUP-fast would have to
fallback to the slow path when stumbling over a PROT_NONE mapped page. We
only have to trigger hinting faults in case FOLL_FORCE is not set, and any
kind of fault handling naturally happens from the slow path -- where NUMA
hinting accounting/handling would be performed.
Note that the comment regarding THP migration is outdated: commit
2b4847e73004 ("mm: numa: serialise parallel get_user_page against THP
migration") described that this was required for THP due to lack of PMD
migration entries. Nowadays, we do have proper PMD migration entries in
place -- see set_pmd_migration_entry(), which does a proper
pmdp_invalidate() when placing the migration entry.
So let's just reuse gup_can_follow_protnone() here to make it consistent
and drop the somewhat outdated comments.

Patch series "mm: minor cleanups around NUMA hinting".
Working on some GUP cleanups (e.g., getting rid of some FOLL_ flags) and
preparing for other GUP changes (getting rid of FOLL_FORCE|FOLL_WRITE for
for taking a R/O longterm pin), this is something I can easily send out
independently.
Get rid of FOLL_NUMA, allow FOLL_FORCE access to PROT_NONE mapped pages in
GUP-fast, and fixup some documentation around NUMA hinting.
This patch (of 3):
No need for a special flag that is not even properly documented to be
internal-only.
Let's just factor this check out and get rid of this flag. The separate
function has the nice benefit that we can centralize comments.
