Since pte_index is always defined, we don't need to check whether it's
defined or not. Delete the slow version that doesn't depend on it and
remove the #define since nobody needs to test for it.

Patch series "mm/swap: stop using page->private on tail pages for THP_SWAP
+ cleanups".
This series stops using page->private on tail pages for THP_SWAP, replaces
folio->private by folio->swap for swapcache folios, and starts using
"new_folio" for tail pages that we are splitting to remove the usage of
page->private for swapcache handling completely.
This patch (of 4):
Let's stop using page->private on tail pages, making it possible to just
unconditionally reuse that field in the tail pages of large folios.
The remaining usage of the private field for THP_SWAP is in the THP
splitting code (mm/huge_memory.c), that we'll handle separately later.
Update the THP_SWAP documentation and sanity checks in mm_types.h and
__split_huge_page_tail().

This is the folio equivalent of page_mapping_file(), but rename it to make
it clear that it's very different from page_file_mapping().
Theoretically, there's nothing flush-only about it, but there are no other
users today, and I doubt there will be; it's almost always more useful to
know the swapfile's mapping or the swapcache's mapping.

Patch series "New page table range API", v6.
This patchset changes the API used by the MM to set up page table entries.
The four APIs are:
set_ptes(mm, addr, ptep, pte, nr)
update_mmu_cache_range(vma, addr, ptep, nr)
flush_dcache_folio(folio)
flush_icache_pages(vma, page, nr)
flush_dcache_folio() isn't technically new, but no architecture
implemented it, so I've done that for them. The old APIs remain around
but are mostly implemented by calling the new interfaces.
The new APIs are based around setting up N page table entries at once.
The N entries belong to the same PMD, the same folio and the same VMA, so
ptep++ is a legitimate operation, and locking is taken care of for you.
Some architectures can do a better job of it than just a loop, but I have
hesitated to make too deep a change to architectures I don't understand
well.
One thing I have changed in every architecture is that PG_arch_1 is now a
per-folio bit instead of a per-page bit when used for dcache clean/dirty
tracking. This was something that would have to happen eventually, and it
makes sense to do it now rather than iterate over every page involved in a
cache flush and figure out if it needs to happen.
The point of all this is better performance, and Fengwei Yin has measured
improvement on x86. I suspect you'll see improvement on your architecture
too. Try the new will-it-scale test mentioned here:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20230206140639.538867-5-fengwei.yin@intel.com/
You'll need to run it on an XFS filesystem and have
CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE set.
This patchset is the basis for much of the anonymous large folio work
being done by Ryan, so it's received quite a lot of testing over the last
few months.
This patch (of 38):
Determine if a value lies within a range more efficiently (subtraction +
comparison vs two comparisons and an AND). It also has useful (under some
circumstances) behaviour if the range exceeds the maximum value of the
type. Convert all the conflicting definitions of in_range() within the
kernel; some can use the generic definition while others need their own
definition.

Currently, memcg uses rstat to maintain aggregated hierarchical stats.
Counters are maintained for hierarchical stats at each memcg. Rstat
tracks which cgroups have updates on which cpus to keep those counters
fresh on the read-side.
Non-hierarchical stats are currently not covered by rstat. Their per-cpu
counters are summed up on every read, which is expensive. The original
implementation did the same. At some point before rstat, non-hierarchical
aggregated counters were introduced by commit a983b5ebee57 ("mm:
memcontrol: fix excessive complexity in memory.stat reporting"). However,
those counters were updated on the performance critical write-side, which
caused regressions, so they were later removed by commit 815744d75152
("mm: memcontrol: don't batch updates of local VM stats and events"). See
[1] for more detailed history.
Kernel versions in between a983b5ebee57 & 815744d75152 (a year and a half)
enjoyed cheap reads of non-hierarchical stats, specifically on cgroup v1.
When moving to more recent kernels, a performance regression for reading
non-hierarchical stats is observed.
Now that we have rstat, we know exactly which percpu counters have updates
for each stat. We can maintain non-hierarchical counters again, making
reads much more efficient, without affecting the performance critical
write-side. Hence, add non-hierarchical (i.e local) counters for the
stats, and extend rstat flushing to keep those up-to-date.
A caveat is that we now need a stats flush before reading
local/non-hierarchical stats through {memcg/lruvec}_page_state_local() or
memcg_events_local(), where we previously only needed a flush to read
hierarchical stats. Most contexts reading non-hierarchical stats are
already doing a flush, add a flush to the only missing context in
count_shadow_nodes().
With this patch, reading memory.stat from 1000 memcgs is 3x faster on a
machine with 256 cpus on cgroup v1:
# for i in $(seq 1000); do mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/cg$i; done
# time cat /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/cg*/memory.stat > /dev/null
real 0m0.125s
user 0m0.005s
sys 0m0.120s
After:
real 0m0.032s
user 0m0.005s
sys 0m0.027s
To make sure there are no regressions on cgroup v2, I ran an artificial
reclaim/refault stress test [2] that creates (NR_CPUS * 2) cgroups,
assigns them limits, runs a worker process in each cgroup that allocates
tmpfs memory equal to quadruple the limit (to invoke reclaim
continuously), and then reads back the entire file (to invoke refaults).
All workers are run in parallel, and zram is used as a swapping backend.
Both reclaim and refault have conditional stats flushing. I ran this on a
machine with 112 cpus, once on mm-unstable, and once on mm-unstable with
this patch reverted.
(1) A few runs without this patch:
# time ./stress_reclaim_refault.sh
real 0m9.949s
user 0m0.496s
sys 14m44.974s
# time ./stress_reclaim_refault.sh
real 0m10.049s
user 0m0.486s
sys 14m55.791s
# time ./stress_reclaim_refault.sh
real 0m9.984s
user 0m0.481s
sys 14m53.841s
(2) A few runs with this patch:
# time ./stress_reclaim_refault.sh
real 0m9.885s
user 0m0.486s
sys 14m48.753s
# time ./stress_reclaim_refault.sh
real 0m9.903s
user 0m0.495s
sys 14m48.339s
# time ./stress_reclaim_refault.sh
real 0m9.861s
user 0m0.507s
sys 14m49.317s
No regressions are observed with this patch. There is actually a very
slight improvement. If I have to guess, maybe it's because we avoid
the percpu loop in count_shadow_nodes() when calling
lruvec_page_state_local(), but I could not prove this using perf, it's
probably in the noise.

Enable handle_userfault to operate under VMA lock by releasing VMA lock
instead of mmap_lock and retrying. Note that FAULT_FLAG_RETRY_NOWAIT
should never be used when handling faults under per-VMA lock protection
because that would break the assumption that lock is dropped on retry.

When page fault is handled under per-VMA lock protection, all swap page
faults are retried with mmap_lock because folio_lock_or_retry has to drop
and reacquire mmap_lock if folio could not be immediately locked. Follow
the same pattern as mmap_lock to drop per-VMA lock when waiting for folio
and retrying once folio is available.
With this obstacle removed, enable do_swap_page to operate under per-VMA
lock protection. Drivers implementing ops->migrate_to_ram might still
rely on mmap_lock, therefore we have to fall back to mmap_lock in that
particular case.
Note that the only time do_swap_page calls synchronous swap_readpage is
when SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO is set, which is only set for
QUEUE_FLAG_SYNCHRONOUS devices: brd, zram and nvdimms (both btt and pmem).
Therefore we don't sleep in this path, and there's no need to drop the
mmap or per-VMA lock.

into a separate cache line.
We also move ->cq_timeouts there because waiters have to read and check
it. We can also conditionally hide ->cq_timeouts in the future from the

io_ring_ctx, that makes ctx reorganisation later easier. That includes,
page arrays used only on tear down, CQ overflow list, old provided
buffer caches and used by io-wq poll hashes.

Queues heads and tails cache line aligned. That makes sq, cq taking 4
lines or 5 lines if we include the rest of struct io_rings (e.g.
sq_flags is frequently accessed).
Since modern io_uring is mostly single threaded, it doesn't make much
send to spread them as such, it wastes space and puts additional pressure
on caches. Put them all into a single line.

io_do_iopoll() and io_submit_flush_completions() are pretty similar,
both filling CQEs and then free a list of requests. Don't duplicate it
and make iopoll use __io_submit_flush_completions(), which also helps
with inlining and other optimisations.
For that, we need to first find all completed iopoll requests and splice
them from the iopoll list and then pass it down. This adds one extra
list traversal, which should be fine as requests will stay hot in cache.
CQ locking is already conditional, introduce ->lockless_cq and skip
locking for IOPOLL as it's protected by ->uring_lock.
We also add a wakeup optimisation for IOPOLL to __io_cq_unlock_post(),
so it works just like io_cqring_ev_posted_iopoll().

====================
mlx5 MACsec RoCEv2 support
From Patrisious:
This series extends previously added MACsec offload support
to cover RoCE traffic either.
In order to achieve that, we need configure MACsec with offload between
the two endpoints, like below:
REMOTE_MAC=10:70:fd:43:71:c0
* ip addr add 1.1.1.1/16 dev eth2
* ip link set dev eth2 up
* ip link add link eth2 macsec0 type macsec encrypt on
* ip macsec offload macsec0 mac
* ip macsec add macsec0 tx sa 0 pn 1 on key 00 dffafc8d7b9a43d5b9a3dfbbf6a30c16
* ip macsec add macsec0 rx port 1 address $REMOTE_MAC
* ip macsec add macsec0 rx port 1 address $REMOTE_MAC sa 0 pn 1 on key 01 ead3664f508eb06c40ac7104cdae4ce5
* ip addr add 10.1.0.1/16 dev macsec0
* ip link set dev macsec0 up
And in a similar manner on the other machine, while noting the keys order
would be reversed and the MAC address of the other machine.
RDMA traffic is separated through relevant GID entries and in case
of IP ambiguity issue - meaning we have a physical GIDs and a MACsec
GIDs with the same IP/GID, we disable our physical GID in order
to force the user to only use the MACsec GID.

interconnect changes for 6.6
This pull request contains the interconnect changes for the 6.6-rc1 merge
window which is a mix of core and driver changes with the following highlights:
Core changes:
- New generic test client driver that allows issuing bandwidth requests
between endpoints via debugfs.
- Annotate all structs with flexible array members with the __counted_by
attribute.
- Introduce new icc_bw_lock for cases where we need to serialize bandwidth
aggregation and update to decouple that from paths that require memory
allocation.
Driver changes:
- Move the Qualcomm SMD RPM bus-clocks from CCF to interconnect framework
where they actually belong. This brings power management improvements
and reduces the overhead and layering. These changes are in immutable
branch that is being pulled also into the qcom tree.
- Fixes for QUP nodes on SM8250.
- Enable sync_state and keepalive for QCM2290.
- Enable sync_state for SM8450.
- Improve enable_mask-based BCMs handling and fix some bugs.
- Add compatible string for the OSM-L3 on SDM670.
- Add compatible strings for SC7180, SM8250 and SM6350 bandwidth monitors.
- Expand and retire the DEFINE_QNODE and DEFINE_QBCM macros, which have
become ugly beasts with many different arguments.

The binfmt_flat_fdpic code has a number of 32-bit specific data
structures associated with it. Extend it to be able to support and
be used on 64-bit systems as well.
The new code defines a number of key 64-bit variants of the core
elf-fdpic data structures - along side the existing 32-bit sized ones.
A common set of generic named structures are defined to be either
the 32-bit or 64-bit ones as required at compile time. This is a
similar technique to that used in the ELF binfmt loader.
For example:
elf_fdpic_loadseg is either elf32_fdpic_loadseg or elf64_fdpic_loadseg
elf_fdpic_loadmap is either elf32_fdpic_loadmap or elf64_fdpic_loadmap
the choice based on ELFCLASS32 or ELFCLASS64.

If the pages are in HIGHMEM then we need to make sure they're mapped
before trying to read data off of them, otherwise we could end up with a
NULL pointer dereference.
The downside to this is that we need an extra cleanup step at the end of
decode to kunmap() the last page. I introduced an xdr_finish_decode()
function to do this. Right now this function only calls the
unmap_current_page() function, but other generic cleanup steps could be
added in the future if we come across anything else.

Back when set_fs() was a generic API for altering the address limit,
addr_limit_user_check() was a safety measure to prevent userspace being
able to issue syscalls with an unbound limit.
With the the removal of set_fs() as a generic API, the last user of
addr_limit_user_check() was removed in commit:
b5a5a01d8e9a44ec ("arm64: uaccess: remove addr_limit_user_check()")
... as since that commit, no architecture defines TIF_FSCHECK, and hence
addr_limit_user_check() always expands to nothing.
Remove addr_limit_user_check(), updating the comment in
exit_to_user_mode_prepare() to no longer refer to it. At the same time,
the comment is reworded to be a little more generic so as to cover
kmap_assert_nomap() in addition to lockdep_sys_exit().

Add an auxiliary virtual bus to model the mlx4 driver structure. The
code is added along the current custom device management logic.
Subsequent patches switch mlx4_en and mlx4_ib to the auxiliary bus and
the old interface is then removed.
Structure mlx4_priv gains a new adev dynamic array to keep track of its
auxiliary devices. Access to the array is protected by the global
mlx4_intf mutex.
Functions mlx4_register_device() and mlx4_unregister_device() are
updated to expose auxiliary devices on the bus in order to load mlx4_en
and/or mlx4_ib. Functions mlx4_register_auxiliary_driver() and
mlx4_unregister_auxiliary_driver() are added to substitute
mlx4_register_interface() and mlx4_unregister_interface(), respectively.
Function mlx4_do_bond() is adjusted to walk over the adev array and
re-adds a specific auxiliary device if its driver sets the
MLX4_INTFF_BONDING flag.

Function mlx4_en_queue_bond_work() is used in mlx4_en to start a bond
reconfiguration. It gathers data about a new port map setting, takes
a reference on the netdev that triggered the change and queues a work
object on mlx4_en_priv.mdev.workqueue to perform the operation. The
scheduled work is mlx4_en_bond_work() which calls
mlx4_bond()/mlx4_unbond() and consequently mlx4_do_bond().
At the same time, function mlx4_change_port_types() in mlx4_core might
be invoked to change the port type configuration. As part of its logic,
it re-registers the whole device by calling mlx4_unregister_device(),
followed by mlx4_register_device().
The two operations can result in concurrent access to the data about
currently active interfaces on the device.
Functions mlx4_register_device() and mlx4_unregister_device() lock the
intf_mutex to gain exclusive access to this data. The current
implementation of mlx4_do_bond() doesn't do that which could result in
an unexpected behavior. An updated version of mlx4_do_bond() for use
with an auxiliary bus goes and locks the intf_mutex when accessing a new
auxiliary device array.
However, doing so can then result in the following deadlock:
* A two-port mlx4 device is configured as an Ethernet bond.
* One of the ports is changed from eth to ib, for instance, by writing
into a mlx4_port<x> sysfs attribute file.
* mlx4_change_port_types() is called to update port types. It invokes
mlx4_unregister_device() to unregister the device which locks the
intf_mutex and starts removing all associated interfaces.
* Function mlx4_en_remove() gets invoked and starts destroying its first
netdev. This triggers mlx4_en_netdev_event() which recognizes that the
configured bond is broken. It runs mlx4_en_queue_bond_work() which
takes a reference on the netdev. Removing the netdev now cannot
proceed until the work is completed.
* Work function mlx4_en_bond_work() gets scheduled. It calls
mlx4_unbond() -> mlx4_do_bond(). The latter function tries to lock the
intf_mutex but that is not possible because it is held already by
mlx4_unregister_device().
This particular case could be possibly solved by unregistering the
mlx4_en_netdev_event() notifier in mlx4_en_remove() earlier, but it
seems better to decouple mlx4_en more and break this reference order.
Avoid then this scenario by recognizing that the bond reconfiguration
operates only on a mlx4_dev. The logic to queue and execute the bond
work can be moved into the mlx4_core driver. Only a reference on the
respective mlx4_dev object is needed to be taken during the work's
lifetime. This removes a call from mlx4_en that can directly result in
needing to lock the intf_mutex, it remains a privilege of the core
driver.

The mlx4_interface.activate callback was introduced in commit
79857cd31fe7 ("net/mlx4: Postpone the registration of net_device"). It
dealt with a situation when a netdev notifier received a NETDEV_REGISTER
event for a new net_device created by mlx4_en but the same device was
not yet visible to mlx4_get_protocol_dev(). The callback can be removed
now that mlx4_get_protocol_dev() is gone.

Use a notifier to implement mlx4_dispatch_event() in preparation to
switch mlx4_en and mlx4_ib to be an auxiliary device.
A problem is that if the mlx4_interface.event callback was replaced with
something as mlx4_adrv.event then the implementation of
mlx4_dispatch_event() would need to acquire a lock on a given device
before executing this callback. That is necessary because otherwise
there is no guarantee that the associated driver cannot get unbound when
the callback is running. However, taking this lock is not possible
because mlx4_dispatch_event() can be invoked from the hardirq context.
Using an atomic notifier allows the driver to accurately record when it
wants to receive these events and solves this problem.
A handler registration is done by both mlx4_en and mlx4_ib at the end of
their mlx4_interface.add callback. This matches the current situation
when mlx4_add_device() would enable events for a given device
immediately after this callback, by adding the device on the

Function mlx4_dispatch_event() takes an 'unsigned long' as its event
parameter. The actual value is none (MLX4_DEV_EVENT_CATASTROPHIC_ERROR),
a pointer to mlx4_eqe (MLX4_DEV_EVENT_PORT_MGMT_CHANGE), or a 32-bit
integer (remaining events).
In preparation to switch mlx4_en and mlx4_ib to be an auxiliary device,
the mlx4_interface.event callback is replaced with a notifier and
function mlx4_dispatch_event() gets updated to invoke
atomic_notifier_call_chain(). This requires forwarding the input 'param'
value from the former function to the latter. A problem is that the
notifier call takes 'void *' as its 'param' value, compared to
'unsigned long' used by mlx4_dispatch_event(). Re-passing the value
would need either punning it to 'void *' or passing down the address of
the input 'param'. Both approaches create a number of unnecessary casts.
Change instead the input 'param' of mlx4_dispatch_event() from
'unsigned long' to 'void *'. A mlx4_eqe pointer can be passed directly,
callers using an int value are adjusted to pass its address.
