The error unrolling was leaving the VMAs detached in many cases and
leaving the locked_vm statistic altered, and skipping the unrolling
entirely in the case of the vma tree write failing.
Fix the error path by re-attaching the detached VMAs and adding the
necessary goto for the failed vma tree write, and fix the locked_vm
statistic by only updating after the vma tree write succeeds.

Before storing a page, zswap first checks if the number of stored pages
exceeds the limit specified by memory.zswap.max, for each cgroup in the
hierarchy. If this limit is reached or exceeded, then zswap shrinking is
triggered and short-circuits the store attempt.
However, since the zswap's LRU is not memcg-aware, this can create the
following pathological behavior: the cgroup whose zswap limit is 0 will
evict pages from other cgroups continually, without lowering its own zswap
usage. This means the shrinking will continue until the need for swap
ceases or the pool becomes empty.
As a result of this, we observe a disproportionate amount of zswap
writeback and a perpetually small zswap pool in our experiments, even
though the pool limit is never hit.
More generally, a cgroup might unnecessarily evict pages from other
cgroups before we drive the memcg back below its limit.
This patch fixes the issue by rejecting zswap store attempt without
shrinking the pool when obj_cgroup_may_zswap() returns false.

Ackerley Tng reported an issue with hugetlbfs fallocate here[1]. The
issue showed up after the conversion of hugetlb page cache lookup code to
use page_cache_next_miss. Code in hugetlb fallocate, userfaultfd and GUP
is now using page_cache_next_miss to determine if a page is present the
page cache. The following statement is used.
present = page_cache_next_miss(mapping, index, 1) != index;
There are two issues with page_cache_next_miss when used in this way.
1) If the passed value for index is equal to the 'wrap-around' value,
the same index will always be returned. This wrap-around value is 0,
so 0 will be returned even if page is present at index 0.
2) If there is no gap in the range passed, the last index in the range
will be returned. When passed a range of 1 as above, the passed
index value will be returned even if the page is present.
The end result is the statement above will NEVER indicate a page is
present in the cache, even if it is.
As noted by Ackerley in [1], users can see this by hugetlb fallocate
incorrectly returning EEXIST if pages are already present in the file. In
addition, hugetlb pages will not be included in core dumps if they need to
be brought in via GUP. userfaultfd UFFDIO_COPY also uses this code and
will not notice pages already present in the cache. It may try to
allocate a new page and potentially return ENOMEM as opposed to EEXIST.
Both page_cache_next_miss and page_cache_prev_miss have similar issues.
Fix by:
- Check for index equal to 'wrap-around' value and do not exit early.
- If no gap is found in range, return index outside range.
- Update function description to say 'wrap-around' value could be
returned if passed as index.

If 'aggr_interval' is smaller than 'sample_interval', max_nr_accesses in
damon_nr_accesses_to_accesses_bp() becomes zero which leads to divide
error, let's validate the values of them in damon_set_attrs() to fix it,
which similar to others attrs check.

The current uses of PageAnon in page table check functions can lead to
type confusion bugs between struct page and slab [1], if slab pages are
accidentally mapped into the user space. This is because slab reuses the
bits in struct page to store its internal states, which renders PageAnon
ineffective on slab pages.
Since slab pages are not expected to be mapped into the user space, this
patch adds BUG_ON(PageSlab(page)) checks to make sure that slab pages
are not inadvertently mapped. Otherwise, there must be some bugs in the
kernel.

Without EXCLUSIVE_SYSTEM_RAM, users are allowed to map arbitrary
physical memory regions into the userspace via /dev/mem. At the same
time, pages may change their properties (e.g., from anonymous pages to
named pages) while they are still being mapped in the userspace, leading
to "corruption" detected by the page table check.
To avoid these false positives, this patch makes PAGE_TABLE_CHECK
depends on EXCLUSIVE_SYSTEM_RAM. This dependency is understandable
because PAGE_TABLE_CHECK is a hardening technique but /dev/mem without
STRICT_DEVMEM (i.e., !EXCLUSIVE_SYSTEM_RAM) is itself a security
problem.
Even with EXCLUSIVE_SYSTEM_RAM, I/O pages may be still allowed to be
mapped via /dev/mem. However, these pages are always considered as named
pages, so they won't break the logic used in the page table check.

The zswap writeback mechanism can cause a race condition resulting in
memory corruption, where a swapped out page gets swapped in with data that
was written to a different page.
The race unfolds like this:
1. a page with data A and swap offset X is stored in zswap
2. page A is removed off the LRU by zpool driver for writeback in
zswap-shrink work, data for A is mapped by zpool driver
3. user space program faults and invalidates page entry A, offset X is
considered free
4. kswapd stores page B at offset X in zswap (zswap could also be
full, if so, page B would then be IOed to X, then skip step 5.)
5. entry A is replaced by B in tree->rbroot, this doesn't affect the
local reference held by zswap-shrink work
6. zswap-shrink work writes back A at X, and frees zswap entry A
7. swapin of slot X brings A in memory instead of B
The fix:
Once the swap page cache has been allocated (case ZSWAP_SWAPCACHE_NEW),
zswap-shrink work just checks that the local zswap_entry reference is
still the same as the one in the tree. If it's not the same it means that
it's either been invalidated or replaced, in both cases the writeback is
aborted because the local entry contains stale data.
Reproducer:
I originally found this by running `stress` overnight to validate my work
on the zswap writeback mechanism, it manifested after hours on my test
machine. The key to make it happen is having zswap writebacks, so
whatever setup pumps /sys/kernel/debug/zswap/written_back_pages should do
the trick.
In order to reproduce this faster on a vm, I setup a system with ~100M of
available memory and a 500M swap file, then running `stress --vm 1
--vm-bytes 300000000 --vm-stride 4000` makes it happen in matter of tens
of minutes. One can speed things up even more by swinging
/sys/module/zswap/parameters/max_pool_percent up and down between, say, 20
and 1; this makes it reproduce in tens of seconds. It's crucial to set
`--vm-stride` to something other than 4096 otherwise `stress` won't
realize that memory has been corrupted because all pages would have the
same data.

Since commit 1ba3cbf3ec3b ("mm: kfence: improve the performance of
__kfence_alloc() and __kfence_free()"), kfence reports failures in random
places at boot on big endian machines.
The problem is that the new KFENCE_CANARY_PATTERN_U64 encodes the address
of each byte in its value, so it needs to be byte swapped on big endian
machines.
The compiler is smart enough to do the le64_to_cpu() at compile time, so
there is no runtime overhead.

After some investigation, I have found the following issue: unlike other
zswap backends, zsmalloc performs the LRU list update at the object
mapping time, rather than when the slot for the object is allocated.
This deviation was discussed and agreed upon during the review process
of the zsmalloc writeback patch series:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/Y3flcAXNxxrvy3ZH@cmpxchg.org/
Unfortunately, this introduces a subtle bug that occurs when there is a
concurrent store and reclaim, which interleave as follows:
zswap_frontswap_store() shrink_worker()
zs_malloc() zs_zpool_shrink()
spin_lock(&pool->lock) zs_reclaim_page()
zspage = find_get_zspage()
spin_unlock(&pool->lock)
spin_lock(&pool->lock)
zspage = list_first_entry(&pool->lru)
list_del(&zspage->lru)
zspage->lru.next = LIST_POISON1
zspage->lru.prev = LIST_POISON2
spin_unlock(&pool->lock)
zs_map_object()
spin_lock(&pool->lock)
if (!list_empty(&zspage->lru))
list_del(&zspage->lru)
CHECK_DATA_CORRUPTION(next == LIST_POISON1) /* BOOM */
With the current upstream code, this issue rarely happens. zswap only
triggers writeback when the pool is already full, at which point all
further store attempts are short-circuited. This creates an implicit
pseudo-serialization between reclaim and store. I am working on a new
zswap shrinking mechanism, which makes interleaving reclaim and store
more likely, exposing this bug.
zbud and z3fold do not have this problem, because they perform the LRU
list update in the alloc function, while still holding the pool's lock.
This patch fixes the aforementioned bug by moving the LRU update back to
zs_malloc(), analogous to zbud and z3fold.

When something registers and unregisters many shrinkers, such as:
for x in $(seq 10000); do unshare -Ui true; done
Sometimes the following error is printed to the kernel log:
debugfs: Directory '...' with parent 'shrinker' already present!
This occurs since commit badc28d4924b ("mm: shrinkers: fix deadlock in
shrinker debugfs") / v6.2: Since the call to `debugfs_remove_recursive`
was moved outside the `shrinker_rwsem`/`shrinker_mutex` lock, but the call
to `ida_free` stayed inside, a newly registered shrinker can be
re-assigned that ID and attempt to create the debugfs directory before the
directory from the previous shrinker has been removed.
The locking changes in commit f95bdb700bc6 ("mm: vmscan: make global slab
shrink lockless") made the race condition more likely, though it existed
before then.
Commit badc28d4924b ("mm: shrinkers: fix deadlock in shrinker debugfs")
could be reverted since the issue is addressed should no longer occur
since the count and scan operations are lockless since commit 20cd1892fcc3
("mm: shrinkers: make count and scan in shrinker debugfs lockless").
However, since this is a contended lock, prefer instead moving `ida_free`
outside the lock to avoid the race.

The allocated dmapool pages are never freed for the lifetime of the pool.
There is no need for the two level list+stack lookup for finding a free
block since nothing is ever removed from the list. Just use a simple
stack, reducing time complexity to constant.
The implementation inserts the stack linking elements and the dma handle
of the block within itself when freed. This means the smallest possible
dmapool block is increased to at most 16 bytes to accommodate these
fields, but there are no exisiting users requesting a dma pool smaller
than that anyway.
Removing the list has a significant change in performance. Using the
kernel's micro-benchmarking self test:
Before:
# modprobe dmapool_test
dmapool test: size:16 blocks:8192 time:57282
dmapool test: size:64 blocks:8192 time:172562
dmapool test: size:256 blocks:8192 time:789247
dmapool test: size:1024 blocks:2048 time:371823
dmapool test: size:4096 blocks:1024 time:362237
After:
# modprobe dmapool_test
dmapool test: size:16 blocks:8192 time:24997
dmapool test: size:64 blocks:8192 time:26584
dmapool test: size:256 blocks:8192 time:33542
dmapool test: size:1024 blocks:2048 time:9022
dmapool test: size:4096 blocks:1024 time:6045
The module test allocates quite a few blocks that may not accurately
represent how these pools are used in real life. For a more marco level
benchmark, running fio high-depth + high-batched on nvme, this patch shows
submission and completion latency reduced by ~100usec each, 1% IOPs
improvement, and perf record's time spent in dma_pool_alloc/free were
reduced by half.

The actions for busy and not busy are mostly the same, so combine these
and remove the unnecessary function. Also, the pool is about to be freed
so there's no need to poison the page data since we only check for poison
on alloc, which can't be done on a freed pool.

To represent the size of a single allocation, dmapool currently uses
'unsigned int' in some places and 'size_t' in other places. Standardize
on 'unsigned int' to reduce overhead, but use 'size_t' when counting all
the blocks in the entire pool.

dmapool originally tried to support pools without a device because
dma_alloc_coherent() supports allocations without a device. But nobody
ended up using dma pools without a device, and trying to do so will result
in an oops. So remove the checks for pool->dev == NULL since they are
unneeded bloat.

If the page is pinned, there's no point in trying to reclaim it.
Furthermore if the page is from the page cache we don't want to reclaim
fs-private data from the page because the pinning process may be writing
to the page at any time and reclaiming fs private info on a dirty page can
upset the filesystem (see link below).

We may still have inconsistent input parameters even if we choose not to
merge and the vma_merge() invariant checks are useful for checking this
with no production runtime cost (these are only relevant when
CONFIG_DEBUG_VM is specified).
Therefore, perform these checks regardless of whether we merge.
This is relevant, as a recent issue (addressed in commit "mm/mempolicy:
Correctly update prev when policy is equal on mbind") in the mbind logic
was only picked up in the 6.2.y stable branch where these assertions are
performed prior to determining mergeability.
Had this remained the same in mainline this issue may have been picked up
faster, so moving forward let's always check them.

Merge my x86 uaccess updates branch.
The LAM ("Linear Address Masking") updates in this release made me
unhappy about how "access_ok()" was done, and it actually turned out to
have a couple of small bugs in it too. This is my cleanup of the code:
- use the sign bit of the __user pointer rather than masking the
address and checking it against the TASK_SIZE range.
We already did this part for the get/put_user() side, but
'access_ok()' did the naïve "mask and range check" thing, which not
only generates nasty code, but also ended up meaning that __access_ok
itself didn't do a good job, and so copy_from_user_nmi() didn't get
the check right.
- move all the code that is 64-bit only into the 64-bit version of the
header file, so that we don't unnecessarily pollute the shared x86
code and make it look like LAM might work in 32-bit too.
- fix a bug in the address masking (that doesn't end up mattering: in
this case the fix was to just remove the buggy code entirely).
- a couple of trivial cleanups and added commentary about the
access_ok() rules.
* x86-uaccess-cleanup:
x86-64: mm: clarify the 'positive addresses' user address rules
x86: mm: remove 'sign' games from LAM untagged_addr*() macros
x86: uaccess: move 32-bit and 64-bit parts into proper <asm/uaccess_N.h> header
x86: mm: remove architecture-specific 'access_ok()' define

The linear address masking (LAM) code made access_ok() more complicated,
in that it now needs to untag the address in order to verify the access
range. See commit 74c228d20a51 ("x86/uaccess: Provide untagged_addr()
and remove tags before address check").
We were able to avoid that overhead in the get_user/put_user code paths
by simply using the sign bit for the address check, and depending on the
GP fault if the address was non-canonical, which made it all independent
of LAM.
And we can do the same thing for access_ok(): simply check that the user
pointer range has the high bit clear. No need to bother with any
address bit masking.
In fact, we can go a bit further, and just check the starting address
for known small accesses ranges: any accesses that overflow will still
be in the non-canonical area and will still GP fault.
To still make syzkaller catch any potentially unchecked user addresses,
we'll continue to warn about GP faults that are caused by accesses in
the non-canonical range. But we'll limit that to purely "high bit set
and past the one-page 'slop' area".
We could probably just do that "check only starting address" for any
arbitrary range size: realistically all kernel accesses to user space
will be done starting at the low address. But let's leave that kind of
optimization for later. As it is, this already allows us to generate
simpler code and not worry about any tag bits in the address.
The one thing to look out for is the GUP address check: instead of
actually copying data in the virtual address range (and thus bad
addresses being caught by the GP fault), GUP will look up the page
tables manually. As a result, the page table limits need to be checked,
and that was previously implicitly done by the access_ok().
With the relaxed access_ok() check, we need to just do an explicit check
for TASK_SIZE_MAX in the GUP code instead. The GUP code already needs
to do the tag bit unmasking anyway, so there this is all very
straightforward, and there are no LAM issues.

The refactoring in commit f4e9e0e69468 ("mm/mempolicy: fix use-after-free
of VMA iterator") introduces a subtle bug which arises when attempting to
apply a new NUMA policy across a range of VMAs in mbind_range().
The refactoring passes a **prev pointer to keep track of the previous VMA
in order to reduce duplication, and in all but one case it keeps this
correctly updated.
The bug arises when a VMA within the specified range has an equivalent
policy as determined by mpol_equal() - which unlike other cases, does not
update prev.
This can result in a situation where, later in the iteration, a VMA is
found whose policy does need to change. At this point, vma_merge() is
invoked with prev pointing to a VMA which is before the previous VMA.
Since vma_merge() discovers the curr VMA by looking for the one
immediately after prev, it will now be in a situation where this VMA is
incorrect and the merge will not proceed correctly.
This is checked in the VM_WARN_ON() invariant case with end >
curr->vm_end, which, if a merge is possible, results in a warning (if
CONFIG_DEBUG_VM is specified).
I note that vma_merge() performs these invariant checks only after
merge_prev/merge_next are checked, which is debatable as it hides this
issue if no merge is possible even though a buggy situation has arisen.
The solution is simply to update the prev pointer even when policies are
equal.
This caused a bug to arise in the 6.2.y stable tree, and this patch
resolves this bug.

This is because init_vmalloc_pages() erroneously calls virt_to_page() on
a vmalloc address, while virt_to_page() is only valid for addresses in
the linear/direct map. Since init_vmalloc_pages() expects virtual
addresses in the vmalloc range, it must use vmalloc_to_page() rather
than virt_to_page().
We call init_vmalloc_pages() from __kasan_unpoison_vmalloc(), where we
check !is_vmalloc_or_module_addr(), suggesting that we might encounter a
non-vmalloc address. Luckily, this never happens. By design, we only
call __kasan_unpoison_vmalloc() on pointers in the vmalloc area, and I
have verified that we don't violate that expectation. Given that,
is_vmalloc_or_module_addr() must always be true for any legitimate
argument to __kasan_unpoison_vmalloc().
Correct init_vmalloc_pages() to use vmalloc_to_page(), and remove the
redundant and misleading use of is_vmalloc_or_module_addr() in
__kasan_unpoison_vmalloc().

__pageblock_pfn_to_page()
Now the __pageblock_pfn_to_page() is used by set_zone_contiguous(), which
checks whether the given zone contains holes, and uses
pfn_to_online_page() to validate if the start pfn is online and valid, as
well as using pfn_valid() to validate the end pfn.
However, the __pageblock_pfn_to_page() function may return non-NULL even
if the end pfn of a pageblock is in a memory hole in some situations. For
example, if the pageblock order is MAX_ORDER, which will fall into 2
sub-sections, and the end pfn of the pageblock may be hole even though the
start pfn is online and valid.
See below memory layout as an example and suppose the pageblock order is
MAX_ORDER.
[ 0.000000] Zone ranges:
[ 0.000000] DMA [mem 0x0000000040000000-0x00000000ffffffff]
[ 0.000000] DMA32 empty
[ 0.000000] Normal [mem 0x0000000100000000-0x0000001fa7ffffff]
[ 0.000000] Movable zone start for each node
[ 0.000000] Early memory node ranges
[ 0.000000] node 0: [mem 0x0000000040000000-0x0000001fa3c7ffff]
[ 0.000000] node 0: [mem 0x0000001fa3c80000-0x0000001fa3ffffff]
[ 0.000000] node 0: [mem 0x0000001fa4000000-0x0000001fa402ffff]
[ 0.000000] node 0: [mem 0x0000001fa4030000-0x0000001fa40effff]
[ 0.000000] node 0: [mem 0x0000001fa40f0000-0x0000001fa73cffff]
[ 0.000000] node 0: [mem 0x0000001fa73d0000-0x0000001fa745ffff]
[ 0.000000] node 0: [mem 0x0000001fa7460000-0x0000001fa746ffff]
[ 0.000000] node 0: [mem 0x0000001fa7470000-0x0000001fa758ffff]
[ 0.000000] node 0: [mem 0x0000001fa7590000-0x0000001fa7dfffff]
Focus on the last memory range, and there is a hole for the range [mem
0x0000001fa7590000-0x0000001fa7dfffff]. That means the last pageblock
will contain the range from 0x1fa7c00000 to 0x1fa7ffffff, since the
pageblock must be 4M aligned. And in this pageblock, these pfns will fall
into 2 sub-section (the sub-section size is 2M aligned).
So, the 1st sub-section (indicates pfn range: 0x1fa7c00000 - 0x1fa7dfffff
) in this pageblock is valid by calling subsection_map_init() in
free_area_init(), but the 2nd sub-section (indicates pfn range:
0x1fa7e00000 - 0x1fa7ffffff ) in this pageblock is not valid.
This did not break anything until now, but the zone continuous is fragile
in this possible scenario. So as previous discussion[1], it is better to
add some comments to explain this possible issue in case there are some
future pfn walkers that rely on this.

Let's factor out actual disabling of KSM. The existing "mm->def_flags &=
~VM_MERGEABLE;" was essentially a NOP and can be dropped, because
def_flags should never include VM_MERGEABLE. Note that we don't currently
prevent re-enabling KSM.
This should now be faster in case KSM was never enabled, because we only
conditionally iterate all VMAs. Further, it certainly looks cleaner.

Patch series "mm/ksm: improve PR_SET_MEMORY_MERGE=0 handling and cleanup
disabling KSM", v2.
(1) Make PR_SET_MEMORY_MERGE=0 unmerge pages like setting MADV_UNMERGEABLE
does, (2) add a selftest for it and (3) factor out disabling of KSM from
s390/gmap code.
This patch (of 3):
Let's unmerge any KSM pages when setting PR_SET_MEMORY_MERGE=0, and clear
the VM_MERGEABLE flag from all VMAs -- just like KSM would. Of course,
only do that if we previously set PR_SET_MEMORY_MERGE=1.

Pull sysctl updates from Luis Chamberlain:
"This only does a few sysctl moves from the kernel/sysctl.c file, the
rest of the work has been put towards deprecating two API calls which
incur recursion and prevent us from simplifying the registration
process / saving memory per move. Most of the changes have been
soaking on linux-next since v6.3-rc3.
I've slowed down the kernel/sysctl.c moves due to Matthew Wilcox's
feedback that we should see if we could *save* memory with these moves
instead of incurring more memory. We currently incur more memory since
when we move a syctl from kernel/sysclt.c out to its own file we end
up having to add a new empty sysctl used to register it. To achieve
saving memory we want to allow syctls to be passed without requiring
the end element being empty, and just have our registration process
rely on ARRAY_SIZE(). Without this, supporting both styles of sysctls
would make the sysctl registration pretty brittle, hard to read and
maintain as can be seen from Meng Tang's efforts to do just this [0].
Fortunately, in order to use ARRAY_SIZE() for all sysctl registrations
also implies doing the work to deprecate two API calls which use
recursion in order to support sysctl declarations with subdirectories.
And so during this development cycle quite a bit of effort went into
this deprecation effort. I've annotated the following two APIs are
deprecated and in few kernel releases we should be good to remove
them:
- register_sysctl_table()
- register_sysctl_paths()
During this merge window we should be able to deprecate and unexport
register_sysctl_paths(), we can probably do that towards the end of
this merge window.
Deprecating register_sysctl_table() will take a bit more time but this
pull request goes with a few example of how to do this.
As it turns out each of the conversions to move away from either of
these two API calls *also* saves memory. And so long term, all these
changes *will* prove to have saved a bit of memory on boot.
The way I see it then is if remove a user of one deprecated call, it
gives us enough savings to move one kernel/sysctl.c out from the
generic arrays as we end up with about the same amount of bytes.
Since deprecating register_sysctl_table() and register_sysctl_paths()
does not require maintainer coordination except the final unexport

Pull module updates from Luis Chamberlain:
"The summary of the changes for this pull requests is:
- Song Liu's new struct module_memory replacement
- Nick Alcock's MODULE_LICENSE() removal for non-modules
- My cleanups and enhancements to reduce the areas where we vmalloc
module memory for duplicates, and the respective debug code which
proves the remaining vmalloc pressure comes from userspace.
Most of the changes have been in linux-next for quite some time except
the minor fixes I made to check if a module was already loaded prior
to allocating the final module memory with vmalloc and the respective
debug code it introduces to help clarify the issue. Although the
functional change is small it is rather safe as it can only *help*
reduce vmalloc space for duplicates and is confirmed to fix a bootup
issue with over 400 CPUs with KASAN enabled. I don't expect stable
kernels to pick up that fix as the cleanups would have also had to
have been picked up. Folks on larger CPU systems with modules will
want to just upgrade if vmalloc space has been an issue on bootup.
Given the size of this request, here's some more elaborate details:
The functional change change in this pull request is the very first
patch from Song Liu which replaces the 'struct module_layout' with a
new 'struct module_memory'. The old data structure tried to put
together all types of supported module memory types in one data
structure, the new one abstracts the differences in memory types in a
module to allow each one to provide their own set of details. This
paves the way in the future so we can deal with them in a cleaner way.
If you look at changes they also provide a nice cleanup of how we
handle these different memory areas in a module. This change has been
in linux-next since before the merge window opened for v6.3 so to
provide more than a full kernel cycle of testing. It's a good thing as
quite a bit of fixes have been found for it.
Jason Baron then made dynamic debug a first class citizen module user
by using module notifier callbacks to allocate / remove module
specific dynamic debug information.
Nick Alcock has done quite a bit of work cross-tree to remove module
license tags from things which cannot possibly be module at my request
so to:
a) help him with his longer term tooling goals which require a
deterministic evaluation if a piece a symbol code could ever be
part of a module or not. But quite recently it is has been made
clear that tooling is not the only one that would benefit.
Disambiguating symbols also helps efforts such as live patching,
kprobes and BPF, but for other reasons and R&D on this area is
active with no clear solution in sight.
b) help us inch closer to the now generally accepted long term goal
of automating all the MODULE_LICENSE() tags from SPDX license tags
In so far as a) is concerned, although module license tags are a no-op
for non-modules, tools which would want create a mapping of possible
modules can only rely on the module license tag after the commit
8b41fc4454e ("kbuild: create modules.builtin without
Makefile.modbuiltin or tristate.conf").
Nick has been working on this *for years* and AFAICT I was the only
one to suggest two alternatives to this approach for tooling. The
complexity in one of my suggested approaches lies in that we'd need a
possible-obj-m and a could-be-module which would check if the object
being built is part of any kconfig build which could ever lead to it
being part of a module, and if so define a new define
-DPOSSIBLE_MODULE [0].
A more obvious yet theoretical approach I've suggested would be to
have a tristate in kconfig imply the same new -DPOSSIBLE_MODULE as
well but that means getting kconfig symbol names mapping to modules
always, and I don't think that's the case today. I am not aware of
Nick or anyone exploring either of these options. Quite recently Josh
Poimboeuf has pointed out that live patching, kprobes and BPF would
benefit from resolving some part of the disambiguation as well but for
other reasons. The function granularity KASLR (fgkaslr) patches were
mentioned but Joe Lawrence has clarified this effort has been dropped
with no clear solution in sight [1].
In the meantime removing module license tags from code which could
never be modules is welcomed for both objectives mentioned above. Some
developers have also welcomed these changes as it has helped clarify
when a module was never possible and they forgot to clean this up, and
so you'll see quite a bit of Nick's patches in other pull requests for
this merge window. I just picked up the stragglers after rc3. LWN has
good coverage on the motivation behind this work [2] and the typical
cross-tree issues he ran into along the way. The only concrete blocker
issue he ran into was that we should not remove the MODULE_LICENSE()
tags from files which have no SPDX tags yet, even if they can never be
modules. Nick ended up giving up on his efforts due to having to do
this vetting and backlash he ran into from folks who really did *not
understand* the core of the issue nor were providing any alternative /
guidance. I've gone through his changes and dropped the patches which
dropped the module license tags where an SPDX license tag was missing,
it only consisted of 11 drivers. To see if a pull request deals with a
file which lacks SPDX tags you can just use:
./scripts/spdxcheck.py -f \
$(git diff --name-only commid-id | xargs echo)
You'll see a core module file in this pull request for the above, but
that's not related to his changes. WE just need to add the SPDX
license tag for the kernel/module/kmod.c file in the future but it
demonstrates the effectiveness of the script.
Most of Nick's changes were spread out through different trees, and I
just picked up the slack after rc3 for the last kernel was out. Those
changes have been in linux-next for over two weeks.
The cleanups, debug code I added and final fix I added for modules
were motivated by David Hildenbrand's report of boot failing on a
systems with over 400 CPUs when KASAN was enabled due to running out
of virtual memory space. Although the functional change only consists
of 3 lines in the patch "module: avoid allocation if module is already
present and ready", proving that this was the best we can do on the
modules side took quite a bit of effort and new debug code.
The initial cleanups I did on the modules side of things has been in
linux-next since around rc3 of the last kernel, the actual final fix
for and debug code however have only been in linux-next for about a
week or so but I think it is worth getting that code in for this merge
window as it does help fix / prove / evaluate the issues reported with
larger number of CPUs. Userspace is not yet fixed as it is taking a
bit of time for folks to understand the crux of the issue and find a
proper resolution. Worst come to worst, I have a kludge-of-concept [3]
of how to make kernel_read*() calls for modules unique / converge
them, but I'm currently inclined to just see if userspace can fix this
instead"

0Day/LKP reported a performance regression for commit 7e12beb8ca2a
("migrate_pages: batch flushing TLB"). In the commit, the TLB flushing
during page migration is batched. So, in try_to_migrate_one(),
ptep_clear_flush() is replaced with set_tlb_ubc_flush_pending(). In
further investigation, it is found that the TLB flushing can be avoided in
ptep_clear_flush() if the PTE is inaccessible. In fact, we can optimize
in similar way for the batched TLB flushing too to improve the
performance.
So in this patch, we check pte_accessible() before
set_tlb_ubc_flush_pending() in try_to_unmap/migrate_one(). Tests show
that the benchmark score of the anon-cow-rand-mt test case of
vm-scalability test suite can improve up to 2.1% with the patch on a Intel
server machine. The TLB flushing IPI can reduce up to 44.3%.

Inserting Ivan Orlov's syzbot fix commit 2ce0bdfebc74
("mm: khugepaged: fix kernel BUG in hpage_collapse_scan_file()")
ahead of Jiaqi Yan's and David Stevens's commits
12904d953364 ("mm/khugepaged: recover from poisoned file-backed memory")
cae106dd67b9 ("mm/khugepaged: refactor collapse_file control flow")
ac492b9c70ca ("mm/khugepaged: skip shmem with userfaultfd")
(all of which restructure collapse_file()) did not work out well.
xfstests generic/086 on huge tmpfs (with accelerated khugepaged) freezes
(if not on the first attempt, then the 2nd or 3rd) in find_lock_entries()
while doing drop_caches: the file's xarray seems to have been corrupted,
with find_get_entry() returning nonsense which makes no progress.
Bisection led to ac492b9c70ca; and diff against earlier working linux-next
suggested that it's probably down to an errant xas_store(), which does not
belong with the later changes (and nor does the positioning of warnings).
The later changes look as if they fix the syzbot issue independently.
Remove most of what's left of 2ce0bdfebc74: just leave one WARN_ON_ONCE
(xas_error) after the final xas_store() of the multi-index entry.
