Although IBS "swfilt" can prevent leaking samples with kernel RIP to the
userspace, there are few subtle cases where a 'data' address and/or a
'branch target' address can fall under kernel address range although RIP
is from userspace. Prevent leaking kernel 'data' addresses by discarding
such samples when {exclude_kernel=1,swfilt=1}.
IBS can now be invoked by unprivileged user with the introduction of
"swfilt". However, this creates a loophole in the interface where an
unprivileged user can get physical address of the userspace virtual
addresses through IBS register raw dump (PERF_SAMPLE_RAW). Prevent this
as well.
This upstream commit fixed the most obvious leak:
65a99264f5e5 perf/x86: Check data address for IBS software filter
Follow that up with a more complete fix.

I was unable to find a good description of the ServerWorks CNB20LE
chipset. However, it was probably exclusively used with the Pentium III
processor (this CPU model was used in all references to it that I
found where the CPU model was provided: dmesgs in [1] and [2];
[3] page 2; [4]-[7]).
As is widely known, the Pentium III processor did not support the 64-bit
mode, support for which was introduced by Intel a couple of years later.
So it is safe to assume that no systems with the CNB20LE chipset have
amd64 and the CONFIG_PCI_CNB20LE_QUIRK may now depend on X86_32.
Additionally, I have determined that most computers with the CNB20LE
chipset did have ACPI support and this driver was inactive on them.
I have submitted a patch to remove this driver, but it was met with
resistance [8].

It appears that (X86_64 || X86_32) is always true on x86.
This logical OR directive was introduced in:
6ea3038648da ("arch/x86: remove depends on CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL")
By (EXPERIMENTAL && X86_32) turning into (X86_32). Since
this change was an identity transformation, nobody noticed
that the condition turned into 'true'.

As many current platforms (most modern Intel CPUs and QEMU) have x2APIC
present, enable CONFIG_X86_X2APIC by default as it gives performance
and functionality benefits. Additionally, if the BIOS has already
switched APIC to x2APIC mode, but CONFIG_X86_X2APIC is disabled, the
kernel will panic in arch/x86/kernel/apic/apic.c .
Also improve the help text, which was confusing and really did not
describe what the feature is about.
Help text references and discussion:
Both Intel [1] and AMD [3] spell the name as "x2APIC", not "x2apic".
"It allows faster access to the local APIC"
[2], chapter 2.1, page 15:
"More efficient MSR interface to access APIC registers."
"x2APIC was introduced in Intel CPUs around 2008":
I was unable to find specific information which Intel CPUs
support x2APIC. Wikipedia claims it was "introduced with the
Nehalem microarchitecture in November 2008", but I was not able
to confirm this independently. At least some Nehalem CPUs do not
support x2APIC [1].
The documentation [2] is dated June 2008. Linux kernel also
introduced x2APIC support in 2008, so the year seems to be
right.
"and in AMD EPYC CPUs in 2019":
[3], page 15:
"AMD introduced an x2APIC in our EPYC 7002 Series processors for
the first time."
"It is also frequently emulated in virtual machines, even when the host
CPU does not support it."
[1]
"If this configuration option is disabled, the kernel will not boot on
some platforms that have x2APIC enabled."
According to some BIOS documentation [4], the x2APIC may be
"disabled", "enabled", or "force enabled" on this system.
I think that "enabled" means "made available to the operating
system, but not already turned on" and "force enabled" means
"already switched to x2APIC mode when the OS boots". Only in the
latter mode a kernel without CONFIG_X86_X2APIC will panic in
validate_x2apic() in arch/x86/kernel/apic/apic.c .
QEMU 4.2.1 and my Intel HP laptop (bought in 2019) use the
"enabled" mode and the kernel does not panic.

Patch series "resource: Split and use DEFINE_RES*() macros", v2.
Replace open coded variants of DEFINE_RES*() macros.
Note, there are many more possibilities over the kernel and even in
reources.c, however the latter contains not so trivial leftovers. That's
why the examples cover only straightforward conversions.
This patch (of 4):
In some cases it would be useful to supply predefined descriptor of the
resource. For this, introduce DEFINE_RES_NAMED_DESC() macro.
While at it, provide DEFINE_RES() that takes only start, size,
and flags.

Add a hung_task detector mutex blocking test sample code.
This module will create a dummy file on the debugfs. That file will cause
the read process to sleep for enough long time (256 seconds) while holding
a mutex. As a result, the second process will wait on the mutex for a
prolonged duration and be detected by the hung_task detector.
Usage is;
> cd /sys/kernel/debug/hung_task
> cat mutex & cat mutex
and wait for hung_task message.

Patch series "hung_task: Dump the blocking task stacktrace", v4.
The hung_task detector is very useful for detecting the lockup. However,
since it only dumps the blocked (uninterruptible sleep) processes, it is
not enough to identify the root cause of that lockup.
For example, if a process holds a mutex and sleep an event in
interruptible state long time, the other processes will wait on the mutex
in uninterruptible state. In this case, the waiter processes are dumped,
but the blocker process is not shown because it is sleep in interruptible
state.
This adds a feature to dump the blocker task which holds a mutex
when detecting a hung task. e.g.
INFO: task cat:115 blocked for more than 122 seconds.

TBD: We can extend this feature to cover other locks like rwsem and
rt_mutex, but rwsem requires to dump all the tasks which acquire and wait
that rwsem. We can follow the waiter link but the output will be a bit
different compared with mutex case.
This patch (of 2):
The "hung_task" shows a long-time uninterruptible slept task, but most
often, it's blocked on a mutex acquired by another task. Without dumping
such a task, investigating the root cause of the hung task problem is very
difficult.
This introduce task_struct::blocker_mutex to point the mutex lock which
this task is waiting for. Since the mutex has "owner" information, we can
find the owner task and dump it with hung tasks.
Note: the owner can be changed while dumping the owner task, so
this is "likely" the owner of the mutex.
With this change, the hung task shows blocker task's info like below;
INFO: task cat:115 blocked for more than 122 seconds.

The `movable` variable is always used when `CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE`
is enabled, so the `__maybe_unused` attribute is not necessary. This
patch removes it and keeps the variable declaration within the `#ifdef`

I can reproduce this issue with the following steps:
1) When a dirty swapcache page is isolated by reclaim process and the
page isn't locked, inject memory failure for the page.
me_swapcache_dirty() clears uptodate flag and tries to delete from lru,
but fails. Reclaim process will put the hwpoisoned page back to lru.
2) The process that maps the hwpoisoned page exits, the page is deleted
the page will never be freed and will be in the lru forever.
3) If we trigger a reclaim again and tries to reclaim the page,
add_to_swap() will trigger VM_BUG_ON_FOLIO due to the uptodate flag is
cleared.
To fix it, skip the hwpoisoned page in shrink_folio_list(). Besides, the
hwpoison folio may not be unmapped by hwpoison_user_mappings() yet, unmap
it in shrink_folio_list(), otherwise the folio will fail to be unmaped by
hwpoison_user_mappings() since the folio isn't in lru list.

Patch series "Adding Proactive Memory Reclaim Statistics".
These two patches are related to proactive memory reclaim.
Patch 1 Split proactive reclaim statistics from direct reclaim counters
and introduces new counters: pgsteal_proactive, pgdemote_proactive,
and pgscan_proactive.
Patch 2 Adds pswpin and pswpout items to the cgroup-v2 documentation.
This patch (of 2):
In proactive memory reclaim scenarios, it is necessary to accurately track
proactive reclaim statistics to dynamically adjust the frequency and
amount of memory being reclaimed proactively. Currently, proactive
reclaim is included in direct reclaim statistics, which can make these
direct reclaim statistics misleading.
Therefore, separate proactive reclaim memory from the direct reclaim
counters by introducing new counters: pgsteal_proactive,
pgdemote_proactive, and pgscan_proactive, to avoid confusion with direct
reclaim.

create_pagecache_thp_and_fd() was previously writing a file sized at twice
the PMD size by making a per-byte write syscall. This was quite slow when
the PMD size is 4M, but completely intolerable for 32M (PMD size for
arm64's 16K page size), and 512M (PMD size for arm64's 64K page size).
The byte pattern has a 256 byte period, so let's create a 1K buffer and
fill it with exactly 4 periods. Then we can write the buffer as many
times as is required to fill the file. This makes things much more
tolerable.
The test now passes for 16K page size. It still fails for 64K page size
because MAX_PAGECACHE_ORDER is too small for 512M folio size (I think).

uffd-unit-tests uses a memory area with a fixed 32M size. Then it
calculates the number of pages by dividing by page_size, which itself is
either the base page size or the PMD huge page size depending on the test
config. For the latter, we end up with nr_pages=1 for arm64 16K base
pages, and nr_pages=0 for 64K base pages. This doesn't end well.
So let's make the 32M size a floor and also ensure that we have at least 2
pages given the PMD size. With this change, the tests pass on arm64 64K
base page size configuration.

Patch series "mm/damon: introduce DAMOS filter type for active pages".
The memory reclaim algorithm categorizes pages into active and inactive
lists, separately for file and anon pages. The system's performance
relies heavily on the (relative and absolute) accuracy of this
categorization.
This patch series add a new DAMOS filter for pages' activeness, giving us
visibility into the access frequency of the pages on each list. This
insight can help us diagnose issues with the active-inactive balancing
dynamics, and make decisions to optimize reclaim efficiency and memory
utilization.
For instance, we might decide to enable DAMON_LRU_SORT, if we find that
there are pages on the active list that are infrequently accessed, or less
frequently accessed than pages on the inactive list.
This patch (of 2):
Implement a DAMOS filter type for active pages on DAMON kernel API, and
add support of it from the physical address space DAMON operations set
(paddr).

Prior to commit 38607c62b34b ("fs/dax: properly refcount fs dax pages")
dax_associate_entry() and dax_disassociate_entry() would implicitly skip
zero and empty dax entries using the for_each_mapped_pfn() macro. The use
of compound ZONE_DEVICE folios removed the need for this macro and so it
was removed, leading dax_folio_put() to be called on zero pages.
This lead to the below warning. To fix this explicitly skip zero and
empty entries in dax_associate/disassociate_entry().

Commit dcdfdd40fa82 ("mm: Add support for unaccepted memory") added a
entry to meminfo but did not document it in the proc.rst file.
This counter tracks the amount of "Unaccepted" guest memory for some
Virtual Machine platforms, such as Intel TDX or AMD SEV-SNP.
Add the missing entry in the documentation.

As discussed here:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/Z9RRkL1hom48z3Tt@google.com/
This code could benefit from some more commentary.
To avoid needing to comment the same thing in multiple places (I guess
more of these SKIPs will need to be added over time, for now I am only
like 20% of the way through Project Run run_vmtests.sh Successfully), add
a dummy "skip tests for this specific reason" function that basically just
serves as a hook to hang comments on.

Patch series "track memory used by balloon drivers", v2.
This series introduces a way to track memory used by balloon drivers.
Add a NR_BALLOON_PAGES counter to track how many pages are reclaimed by
the balloon drivers. First add the accounting, then updates the balloon
drivers (virtio, Hyper-V, VMware, Pseries-cmm, and Xen) to maintain this
counter. The virtio, Vmware, and pseries-cmm balloon drivers utilize the
balloon_compaction interface to allocate and free balloon pages. Other
balloon drivers will have to maintain this counter manually.
This makes the information visible in memory reporting interfaces like
/proc/meminfo, show_mem, and OOM reporting.
This provides admins visibility into their VM balloon sizes without
requiring different virtualization tooling. Furthermore, this information
is helpful when debugging an OOM inside a VM.
This patch (of 4):
Add NR_BALLOON_PAGES counter to track memory used by balloon drivers and
expose it through /proc/meminfo and other memory reporting interfaces.

We know that the passed in page is not part of a folio (it's a plain page
allocated with GFP_ACCOUNT), so we should get rid of the misleading
references to folios.

clear.

Patch series "Minor memcg cleanups & prep for memdescs", v2.
Separate the handling of accounted folios and GFP_ACCOUNT pages for easier
to understand code. For more detail, see
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/Z9LwTOudOlCGny3f@casper.infradead.org/
This patch (of 5):
Folios always use memcg_data to refer to the mem_cgroup while pages
allocated with GFP_ACCOUNT have a pointer to the obj_cgroup. Since the
caller already knows what it has, split the function into two and then we
don't need to check.
Move the assignment of split folio memcg_data to the point where we set up
the other parts of the new folio. That leaves folio_split_memcg_refs()
just handling the memcg accounting.

accounting in memory cgroup. However with disabled CONFIG_MEMCG_V1, we
don't need to keep checking it. So, let's always return false for

We never charge the page counters of root memcg, so there is no need to
put root memcg in the memcg stock. At the moment, refill_stock() can be
called from try_charge_memcg(), obj_cgroup_uncharge_pages() and
mem_cgroup_uncharge_skmem().
The try_charge_memcg() and mem_cgroup_uncharge_skmem() are never called
with root memcg, so those are fine. However obj_cgroup_uncharge_pages()
can potentially call refill_stock() with root memcg if the objcg object
has been reparented over to the root memcg. Let's just avoid
refill_stock() from obj_cgroup_uncharge_pages() for root memcg.

For different CMAs, concurrent allocation of CMA memory ideally should not
require synchronization using locks. Currently, a global cma_mutex lock
is employed to synchronize all CMA allocations, which can impact the
performance of concurrent allocations across different CMAs.
To test the performance impact, follow these steps:
1. Boot the kernel with the command line argument hugetlb_cma=30G to
allocate a 30GB CMA area specifically for huge page allocations. (note:
on my machine, which has 3 nodes, each node is initialized with 10G of
CMA)
2. Use the dd command with parameters if=/dev/zero of=/dev/shm/file bs=1G
count=30 to fully utilize the CMA area by writing zeroes to a file in
/dev/shm.
3. Open three terminals and execute the following commands simultaneously:
(Note: Each of these commands attempts to allocate 10GB [2621440 * 4KB
pages] of CMA memory.)
On Terminal 1: time echo 2621440 > /sys/kernel/debug/cma/hugetlb1/alloc
On Terminal 2: time echo 2621440 > /sys/kernel/debug/cma/hugetlb2/alloc
On Terminal 3: time echo 2621440 > /sys/kernel/debug/cma/hugetlb3/alloc
We attempt to allocate pages through the CMA debug interface and use the
time command to measure the duration of each allocation.
Performance comparison:
Without this patch With this patch
Terminal1 ~7s ~7s
Terminal2 ~14s ~8s
Terminal3 ~21s ~7s
To solve problem above, we could use per-CMA locks to improve concurrent
allocation performance. This would allow each CMA to be managed

emc2305_remove, which are no longer needed.
