Patch series "page_owner: Fixup and cleanup".
This patchset consists of a fixup by an error that was reported by intel
robot, where it seems to be that by the time page_owner gets initialized,
stackdepot has already depleted its allocation space and returns
0-handles, turning that into null stack_records when trying to retrieve
the stack_record. I was not able to reproduce that from the config
because it booted fine for me, but when setting e.g: dummy_handle to 0
artificially, I could see the same error that was reported.
The second patch is a cleanup that can also lead to a compilation warning.
This patch (of 2):
Although the retrieval of the stack_records for {dummy,failure}_handle
happen when page_owner gets initialized, there seems to be some situations
where stackdepot space has been already depleted by then, so we get
0-handles which make stack_records being NULL for those cases.
Be careful to 1) only bump stack_records refcount and 2) only access
stack_record fields if we actually have a non-null stack_record between
hands.

There was previously a theoretical window where swapoff() could run and
teardown a swap_info_struct while a call to free_swap_and_cache() was
running in another thread. This could cause, amongst other bad
possibilities, swap_page_trans_huge_swapped() (called by
free_swap_and_cache()) to access the freed memory for swap_map.
This is a theoretical problem and I haven't been able to provoke it from a
test case. But there has been agreement based on code review that this is
possible (see link below).
Fix it by using get_swap_device()/put_swap_device(), which will stall
swapoff(). There was an extra check in _swap_info_get() to confirm that
the swap entry was not free. This isn't present in get_swap_device()
because it doesn't make sense in general due to the race between getting
the reference and swapoff. So I've added an equivalent check directly in
free_swap_and_cache().
Details of how to provoke one possible issue (thanks to David Hildenbrand
for deriving this):
--8<-----
__swap_entry_free() might be the last user and result in
"count == SWAP_HAS_CACHE".
swapoff->try_to_unuse() will stop as soon as soon as si->inuse_pages==0.
So the question is: could someone reclaim the folio and turn
si->inuse_pages==0, before we completed swap_page_trans_huge_swapped().
Imagine the following: 2 MiB folio in the swapcache. Only 2 subpages are
still references by swap entries.
Process 1 still references subpage 0 via swap entry.
Process 2 still references subpage 1 via swap entry.
Process 1 quits. Calls free_swap_and_cache().
-> count == SWAP_HAS_CACHE
[then, preempted in the hypervisor etc.]
Process 2 quits. Calls free_swap_and_cache().
-> count == SWAP_HAS_CACHE
Process 2 goes ahead, passes swap_page_trans_huge_swapped(), and calls
__try_to_reclaim_swap().
__try_to_reclaim_swap()->folio_free_swap()->delete_from_swap_cache()->
put_swap_folio()->free_swap_slot()->swapcache_free_entries()->
swap_entry_free()->swap_range_free()->
...
WRITE_ONCE(si->inuse_pages, si->inuse_pages - nr_entries);
What stops swapoff to succeed after process 2 reclaimed the swap cache
but before process1 finished its call to swap_page_trans_huge_swapped()?

Commit bf9b7df23cb3 ("mm/zswap: global lru and shrinker shared by all
zswap_pools") introduced a new lock to protect zswap_next_shrink, instead
of reusing zswap_pools_lock.
But the problem is that it's initialized only when zswap enabled, which
causes bug if zswap_memcg_offline_cleanup() called without zswap enabled.
Fix it by using DEFINE_SPINLOCK() to statically initialize them and define
them as multiple static variables to keep in consistent with the existing
global variables in zswap.

With parallelization of hugetlb allocation across different threads, each
thread works on a differnet node to allocate pages from, instead of all
allocating from a common node h->next_nid_to_alloc. To address this, it's
necessary to assign a separate next_nid_to_alloc for each thread.
Consequently, the hstate_next_node_to_alloc and
for_each_node_mask_to_alloc have been modified to directly accept a
*next_nid_to_alloc parameter, ensuring thread-specific allocation and
avoiding concurrent access issues.

Patch series "hugetlb: parallelize hugetlb page init on boot", v6.
Introduction
------------
Hugetlb initialization during boot takes up a considerable amount of time.
For instance, on a 2TB system, initializing 1,800 1GB huge pages takes
1-2 seconds out of 10 seconds. Initializing 11,776 1GB pages on a 12TB
Intel host takes more than 1 minute[1]. This is a noteworthy figure.
Inspired by [2] and [3], hugetlb initialization can also be accelerated
through parallelization. Kernel already has infrastructure like
padata_do_multithreaded, this patch uses it to achieve effective results
by minimal modifications.

max_threads
-----------
This patch use `padata_do_multithreaded` like this:
```
job.max_threads = num_node_state(N_MEMORY) * multiplier;
padata_do_multithreaded(&job);
```
To fully utilize the CPU, the number of parallel threads needs to be
carefully considered. `max_threads = num_node_state(N_MEMORY)` does not
fully utilize the CPU, so we need to multiply it by a multiplier.
Tests below indicate that a multiplier of 2 significantly improves
performance, and although larger values also provide improvements, the
gains are marginal.
multiplier 1 2 3 4 5
------------ ------- ------- ------- ------- -------
256G 2node 358ms 215ms 157ms 134ms 126ms
2T 4node 979ms 679ms 543ms 489ms 481ms
50G 2node 71ms 44ms 37ms 30ms 31ms
Therefore, choosing 2 as the multiplier strikes a good balance between
enhancing parallel processing capabilities and maintaining efficient
resource management.

This patch (of 8):
The readability of `hugetlb_hstate_alloc_pages` is poor. By cleaning the
code, its readability can be improved, facilitating future modifications.
This patch extracts two functions to reduce the complexity of
`hugetlb_hstate_alloc_pages` and has no functional changes.
- hugetlb_hstate_alloc_pages_node_specific() to handle iterates through
each online node and performs allocation if necessary.
- hugetlb_hstate_alloc_pages_report() report error during allocation.
And the value of h->max_huge_pages is updated accordingly.

We will save allocated tag in the object header to indicate that it's
allocated.
handle |= OBJ_ALLOCATED_TAG;
So the object header needs to reserve LSB for this tag bit.
But the handle itself doesn't need to reserve LSB to save tag, since it's
only used to find the position of object, by (pfn + obj_idx). So remove
LSB reserve from handle, one more bit can be used as obj_idx.

do_numa_page() is reading from the same page table entry, twice, while
holding the page table lock: once while checking that the pte hasn't
changed, and again in order to modify the pte.
Instead, just read the pte once, and save it in the same old_pte variable
that already exists. This has no effect on behavior, other than to
provide a tiny potential improvement to performance, by avoiding the
redundant memory read (which the compiler cannot elide, due to
READ_ONCE()).
Also improve the associated comments nearby.

Patch series "Rearrange batched folio freeing", v3.
Other than the obvious "remove calls to compound_head" changes, the
fundamental belief here is that iterating a linked list is much slower
than iterating an array (5-15x slower in my testing). There's also an
associated belief that since we iterate the batch of folios three times,
we do better when the array is small (ie 15 entries) than we do with a
batch that is hundreds of entries long, which only gives us the
opportunity for the first pages to fall out of cache by the time we get to
the end.
It is possible we should increase the size of folio_batch. Hopefully the
bots let us know if this introduces any performance regressions.
This patch (of 3):
By making release_pages() call folios_put(), we can get rid of the calls
to compound_head() for the callers that already know they have folios. We
can also get rid of the lock_batch tracking as we know the size of the
batch is limited by folio_batch. This does reduce the maximum number of
pages for which the lruvec lock is held, from SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX (32) to
PAGEVEC_SIZE (15). I do not expect this to make a significant difference,
but if it does, we can increase PAGEVEC_SIZE to 31.

Patch series "mm: remove total_mapcount()", v2.
Let's remove the remaining user from mm/memfd.c so we can get rid of
total_mapcount().
This patch (of 2):
Both functions are the remaining users of total_mapcount(). Let's get rid
of the calls by converting the code to folios.
As it turns out, the code is unnecessarily complicated, especially:
1) We can query the number of pagecache references for a folio simply via
folio_nr_pages(). This will handle other folio sizes in the future
correctly.
2) The xas_set(xas, page->index + cache_count) call to increment the
iterator for large folios is not required. Remove it.
Further, simplify the XA_CHECK_SCHED check, counting each entry exactly
once.
Memfd pages can be swapped out when using shmem; leave xa_is_value()
checks in place.

To split a THP to any lower order pages, we need to reform THPs on
subpages at given order and add page refcount based on the new page order.
Also we need to reinitialize page_deferred_list after removing the page
from the split_queue, otherwise a subsequent split will see list
corruption when checking the page_deferred_list again.
Note: Anonymous order-1 folio is not supported because _deferred_list,
which is used by partially mapped folios, is stored in subpage 2 and an
order-1 folio only has subpage 0 and 1. File-backed order-1 folios are
fine, since they do not use _deferred_list.

Patch series "Split a folio to any lower order folios", v5.
File folio supports any order and multi-size THP is upstreamed[1], so both
file and anonymous folios can be >0 order. Currently, split_huge_page()
only splits a huge page to order-0 pages, but splitting to orders higher
than 0 might better utilize large folios, if done properly. In addition,
Large Block Sizes in XFS support would benefit from it during truncate[2].
This patchset adds support for splitting a large folio to any lower order
folios.
In addition to this implementation of split_huge_page_to_list_to_order(),
a possible optimization could be splitting a large folio to arbitrary
smaller folios instead of a single order. As both Hugh and Ryan pointed
out [3,5] that split to a single order might not be optimal, an order-9
folio might be better split into 1 order-8, 1 order-7, ..., 1 order-1, and
2 order-0 folios, depending on subsequent folio operations. Leave this as
future work.

While doing MADV_PAGEOUT, the current code will clear PTE young so that
vmscan won't read young flags to allow the reclamation of madvised folios
to go ahead. It seems we can do it by directly ignoring references, thus
we can remove tlb flush in madvise and rmap overhead in vmscan.
Regarding the side effect, in the original code, if a parallel thread runs
side by side to access the madvised memory with the thread doing madvise,
folios will get a chance to be re-activated by vmscan (though the time gap
is actually quite small since checking PTEs is done immediately after
clearing PTEs young). But with this patch, they will still be reclaimed.
But this behaviour doing PAGEOUT and doing access at the same time is
quite silly like DoS. So probably, we don't need to care. Or ignoring
the new access during the quite small time gap is even better.
For DAMON's DAMOS_PAGEOUT based on physical address region, we still keep
its behaviour as is since a physical address might be mapped by multiple
processes. MADV_PAGEOUT based on virtual address is actually much more
aggressive on reclamation. To untouch paddr's DAMOS_PAGEOUT, we simply
pass ignore_references as false in reclaim_pages().
A microbench as below has shown 6% decrement on the latency of
MADV_PAGEOUT,
#define PGSIZE 4096
main()
{
int i;
#define SIZE 512*1024*1024
volatile long *p = mmap(NULL, SIZE, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0);
for (i = 0; i < SIZE/sizeof(long); i += PGSIZE / sizeof(long))
p[i] = 0x11;
madvise(p, SIZE, MADV_PAGEOUT);
}
