When initializing an nbcon console, have nbcon_alloc() set
@nbcon_seq to the highest possible sequence number. For all
practical purposes, this will guarantee that the console
will have nothing to print until later when @nbcon_seq is
set to the proper initial printing value.
This will be particularly important once kthread printing is
introduced because nbcon_alloc() can create/start the kthread
before the desired initial sequence number is known.

The nbcon consoles will have two callbacks to be used for
different contexts. In order to determine if an nbcon console
is usable, console_is_usable() must know if it is a context
that will need to use the optional write_atomic() callback.
Also, nbcon_emit_next_record() must know which callback it
needs to call.
Add an extra parameter @use_atomic to console_is_usable() and
nbcon_emit_next_record() to specify this.
Since so far only the write_atomic() callback exists,
@use_atomic is set to true for all call sites.
For legacy consoles, @use_atomic is not used.

A follow-up change adds pr_flush() to console unregistration.
However, with boot consoles unregistration can happen very
early if there are also regular consoles registering as well.
In this case the pr_flush() is not important because all
consoles are flushed when checking the initial console sequence
number.
Allow pr_flush() to fail if @system_state has not yet reached
SYSTEM_SCHEDULING. This avoids might_sleep() and msleep()
explosions that would otherwise occur:

Since ownership can be lost at any time due to handover or
takeover, a printing context _must_ be prepared to back out
immediately and carefully. However, there are scenarios where
the printing context must reacquire ownership in order to
finalize or revert hardware changes.
One such example is when interrupts are disabled during
printing. No other context will automagically re-enable the
interrupts. For this case, the disabling context _must_
reacquire nbcon ownership so that it can re-enable the
interrupts.
Provide nbcon_reacquire_nobuf() for exactly this purpose. It
allows a printing context to reacquire ownership using the same
priority as its previous ownership.
Note that after a successful reacquire the printing context
will have no output buffer because that has been lost. This
function cannot be used to resume printing.

Global timers could be expired remotely when the target CPU is idle. After
a remote timer expiry, the remote timer_base->next_expiry value is updated
while holding the timer_base->lock. When the formerly idle CPU becomes
active at the same time and checks whether timers need to expire, this
check is done lockless as it is on the local CPU. This could lead to a data
race, which was reported by sysbot:
https://lore.kernel.org/r/000000000000916e55061f969e14@google.com
When the value is read lockless but changed by the remote CPU, only two non
critical scenarios could happen:
1) The already update value is read -> everything is perfect
2) The old value is read -> a superfluous timer soft interrupt is raised
The same situation could happen when enqueueing a new first pinned timer by
a remote CPU also with non critical scenarios:
1) The already update value is read -> everything is perfect
2) The old value is read -> when the CPU is idle, an IPI is executed
nevertheless and when the CPU isn't idle, the updated value will be visible
on the next tick and the timer might be late one jiffie.
As this is very unlikely to happen, the overhead of doing the check under
the lock is a way more effort, than a superfluous timer soft interrupt or a
possible 1 jiffie delay of the timer.
Document and annotate this non critical behavior in the code by using
READ/WRITE_ONCE() pair when accessing timer_base->next_expiry.

Because the BPF scheduler's dispatch path is invoked from balance(),
sched_ext needs to invoke balance_one() on all sibling rq's before picking
the next task for core-sched.
Before the recent pick_next_task() updates, sched_ext couldn't share pick
task between regular and core-sched paths because pick_next_task() depended
on put_prev_task() being called on the current task. Tasks currently running
on sibling rq's can't be put when one rq is trying to pick the next task, so
pick_task_scx() had to have a separate mechanism to pick between a sibling
rq's current task and the first task in its local DSQ.
However, with the preceding updates, pick_next_task_scx() no longer depends
on the current task being put and can compare the current task and the next
in line statelessly, and the pick task logic should be shareable between
regular and core-sched paths.
Unify regular and core-sched pick task paths:
- There's no reason to distinguish local and sibling picks anymore. @local
is removed from balance_one().
- pick_next_task_scx() is turned into pick_task_scx() by dropping the
put_prev_set_next_task() call.
- The old pick_task_scx() is dropped.

SCX_TASK_BAL_KEEP is used by balance_one() to tell pick_next_task_scx() to
keep running the current task. It's not really a task property. Replace it
with SCX_RQ_BAL_KEEP which resides in rq->scx.flags and is a better fit for
the usage. Also, the existing clearing rule is unnecessarily strict and
makes it difficult to use with core-sched. Just clear it on entry to
balance_one().

fd03c5b85855 ("sched: Rework pick_next_task()") changed the definition of
pick_next_task() from:
pick_next_task() := pick_task() + set_next_task(.first = true)
to:
pick_next_task(prev) := pick_task() + put_prev_task() + set_next_task(.first = true)
making invoking put_prev_task() pick_next_task()'s responsibility. This
reordering allows pick_task() to be shared between regular and core-sched
paths and put_prev_task() to know the next task.
sched_ext depended on put_prev_task_scx() enqueueing the current task before
pick_next_task_scx() is called. While pulling sched/core changes,
70cc76aa0d80 ("Merge branch 'tip/sched/core' into for-6.12") added an
explicit put_prev_task_scx() call for SCX tasks in pick_next_task_scx()
before picking the first task as a workaround.
Clean it up and adopt the conventions that other sched classes are
following.
The operation of keeping running the current task was spread and required
the task to be put on the local DSQ before picking:
- balance_one() used SCX_TASK_BAL_KEEP to indicate that the task is still
runnable, hasn't exhausted its slice, and thus should keep running.
- put_prev_task_scx() enqueued the task to local DSQ if SCX_TASK_BAL_KEEP
is set. It also called do_enqueue_task() with SCX_ENQ_LAST if it is the
only runnable task. do_enqueue_task() in turn decided whether to use the
local DSQ depending on SCX_OPS_ENQ_LAST.
Consolidate the logic in balance_one() as it always knows whether it is
going to keep the current task. balance_one() now considers all conditions
where the current task should be kept and uses SCX_TASK_BAL_KEEP to tell
pick_next_task_scx() to keep the current task instead of picking one from
the local DSQ. Accordingly, SCX_ENQ_LAST handling is removed from
put_prev_task_scx() and do_enqueue_task() and pick_next_task_scx() is
updated to pick the current task if SCX_TASK_BAL_KEEP is set.
The workaround put_prev_task[_scx]() calls are replaced with
put_prev_set_next_task().
This causes two behavior changes observable from the BPF scheduler:
- When a task keep running, it no longer goes through enqueue/dequeue cycle
and thus ops.stopping/running() transitions. The new behavior is better
and all the existing schedulers should be able to handle the new behavior.
- The BPF scheduler cannot keep executing the current task by enqueueing
SCX_ENQ_LAST task to the local DSQ. If SCX_OPS_ENQ_LAST is specified, the
BPF scheduler is responsible for resuming execution after each
SCX_ENQ_LAST. SCX_OPS_ENQ_LAST is mostly useful for cases where scheduling
decisions are not made on the local CPU - e.g. central or userspace-driven
schedulin - and the new behavior is more logical and shouldn't pose any
problems. SCX_OPS_ENQ_LAST demonstration from scx_qmap is dropped as it
doesn't fit that well anymore and the last task handling is moved to the
end of qmap_dispatch().

Problem statement:
Since commit fc137c0ddab2 ("sched/numa: enhance vma scanning logic"), the
Numa vma scan overhead has been reduced a lot. Meanwhile, the reducing of
the vma scan might create less Numa page fault information. The
insufficient information makes it harder for the Numa balancer to make
decision. Later, commit b7a5b537c55c08 ("sched/numa: Complete scanning of
partial VMAs regardless of PID activity") and commit 84db47ca7146d7
("sched/numa: Fix mm numa_scan_seq based unconditional scan") are found to
bring back part of the performance.
Recently when running SPECcpu omnetpp_r on a 320 CPUs/2 Sockets system, a
long duration of remote Numa node read was observed by PMU events: A few
cores having ~500MB/s remote memory access for ~20 seconds. It causes
high core-to-core variance and performance penalty. After the
investigation, it is found that many vmas are skipped due to the active
PID check. According to the trace events, in most cases,
vma_is_accessed() returns false because the history access info stored in
pids_active array has been cleared.
Proposal:
The main idea is to adjust vma_is_accessed() to let it return true easier.
Thus compare the diff between mm->numa_scan_seq and
vma->numab_state->prev_scan_seq. If the diff has exceeded the threshold,
scan the vma.
This patch especially helps the cases where there are small number of
threads, like the process-based SPECcpu. Without this patch, if the
SPECcpu process access the vma at the beginning, then sleeps for a long
time, the pid_active array will be cleared. A a result, if this process
is woken up again, it never has a chance to set prot_none anymore.
Because only the first 2 times of access is granted for vma scan:
(current->mm->numa_scan_seq) - vma->numab_state->start_scan_seq) < 2 to be
worse, no other threads within the task can help set the prot_none. This
causes information lost.

Patch series "mm: introduce numa_memblks", v4.
Following the discussion about handling of CXL fixed memory windows on
arm64 [1] I decided to bite the bullet and move numa_memblks from x86 to
the generic code so they will be available on arm64/riscv and maybe on
loongarch sometime later.
While it could be possible to use memblock to describe CXL memory windows,
it currently lacks notion of unpopulated memory ranges and numa_memblks
does implement this.
Another reason to make numa_memblks generic is that both arch_numa (arm64
and riscv) and loongarch use trimmed copy of x86 code although there is no
fundamental reason why the same code cannot be used on all these
platforms. Having numa_memblks in mm/ will make it's interaction with
ACPI and FDT more consistent and I believe will reduce maintenance burden.
And with generic numa_memblks it is (almost) straightforward to enable
NUMA emulation on arm64 and riscv.
The first 9 commits in this series are cleanups that are not strictly
related to numa_memblks.
Commits 10-16 slightly reorder code in x86 to allow extracting numa_memblks
and NUMA emulation to the generic code.
Commits 17-19 actually move the code from arch/x86/ to mm/ and commits 20-22
does some aftermath cleanups.
Commit 23 updates of_numa_init() to return error of no NUMA nodes were
found in the device tree.
Commit 24 switches arch_numa to numa_memblks.
Commit 25 enables usage of phys_to_target_node() and
memory_add_physaddr_to_nid() with numa_memblks.
Commit 26 moves the description for numa=fake from x86 to admin-guide.

When the CMA allocation succeeds but isn't addressable, its buffer has
already been released and the page is set to NULL. So later when the
normal page allocation succeeds but isn't addressable, __free_pages()
can be used to free that normal page rather than using
dma_free_contiguous that does extra checks that are not needed.

DMA ops are a helper for architectures and not for drivers to override
the DMA implementation.
Unfortunately driver authors keep ignoring this. Make the fact more
clear by renaming the symbol to ARCH_HAS_DMA_OPS and having the two drivers
overriding their dma_ops depend on that. These drivers should probably be
marked broken, but we can give them a bit of a grace period for that.

- Resolve trivial context conflicts from dl_server clearing being moved
around.
- Add @next to put_prev_task_scx() and @prev to pick_next_task_scx() to
match sched/core.
- Merge sched_class->switch_class() addition from sched_ext with
tip/sched/core changes in __pick_next_task().
- Make pick_next_task_scx() call put_prev_task_scx() to emulate the previous
behavior where sched_class->put_prev_task() was called before
sched_class->pick_next_task().
While this makes sched_ext build and function, the behavior is not in line
with other sched classes. The follow-up patches will address the
discrepancies and remove sched_class->switch_class().

In order to tell the previous sched_class what the next task is, add
put_prev_task(.next).
Notable SCX will use this to:
1) determine the next task will leave the SCX sched class and push
the current task to another CPU if possible.
2) statistics on how often and which other classes preempt it

When a task is selected through a dl_server, it will have p->dl_server
set, such that it can account runtime to the dl_server, see
update_curr_task().
Currently p->dl_server is set in pick*task() whenever it goes through
the dl_server, clearing it is a bit of a mess though. The trivial
solution is clearing it on the final put (now that we have this
location).
However, this gives a problem when:
p = pick_task(rq);
if (p)
put_prev_set_next_task(rq, prev, next);
picks the same task but through a different path, notably when it goes
from picking through the dl_server to a direct pick or vice-versa. In
that case we cannot readily determine wether we should clear or
preserve p->dl_server.
An additional complication is pick_*task() setting p->dl_server for a
remote pick, it might still need to update runtime before it schedules
the core_pick.
Close all these holes and remove all the random clearing of
p->dl_server by:
- having pick_*task() manage rq->dl_server
- having the final put_prev_task() clear p->dl_server
- having the first set_next_task() set p->dl_server = rq->dl_server
- complicate the core_sched code to save/restore rq->dl_server where
appropriate.

The current rule is that:
pick_next_task() := pick_task() + set_next_task(.first = true)
And many classes implement it directly as such. Change things around
to make pick_next_task() optional while also changing the definition to:
pick_next_task(prev) := pick_task() + put_prev_task() + set_next_task(.first = true)
The reason is that sched_ext would like to have a 'final' call that
knows the next task. By placing put_prev_task() right next to
set_next_task() (as it already is for sched_core) this becomes
trivial.
As a bonus, this is a nice cleanup on its own.

__sched_setscheduler() goes through an enqueue/dequeue cycle like so:
flags := DEQUEUE_SAVE | DEQUEUE_MOVE | DEQUEUE_NOCLOCK;
prev_class->dequeue_task(rq, p, flags);
new_class->enqueue_task(rq, p, flags);
when prev_class := fair_sched_class, this is followed by:
dequeue_task(rq, p, DEQUEUE_NOCLOCK | DEQUEUE_SLEEP);
the idea being that since the task has switched classes, we need to drop
the sched_delayed logic and have that task be deactivated per its previous
dequeue_task(..., DEQUEUE_SLEEP).
Unfortunately, this leaves the task on_rq. This is missing the tail end of
dequeue_entities() that issues __block_task(), which __sched_setscheduler()
won't have done due to not using DEQUEUE_DELAYED - not that it should, as
it is pretty much a fair_sched_class specific thing.
Make switched_from_fair() properly deactivate sched_delayed tasks upon
class changes via __block_task(), as if a
dequeue_task(..., DEQUEUE_DELAYED)
had been issued.

When analyzing a kernel waring message, Peter pointed out that there is a
race condition when the kworker is being frozen and falls into
try_to_freeze() with TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE, which could trigger a
might_sleep() warning in try_to_freeze(). Although the root cause is not
related to freeze()[1], it is still worthy to fix this issue ahead.
One possible race scenario:
CPU 0 CPU 1
----- -----
// kthread_worker_fn
set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE);
suspend_freeze_processes()
freeze_processes
static_branch_inc(&freezer_active);
freeze_kernel_threads
pm_nosig_freezing = true;
if (work) { //false
__set_current_state(TASK_RUNNING);
} else if (!freezing(current)) //false, been frozen
freezing():
if (static_branch_unlikely(&freezer_active))
if (pm_nosig_freezing)
return true;
schedule()
}
// state is still TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE
try_to_freeze()
might_sleep() <--- warning
Fix this by explicitly set the TASK_RUNNING before entering
try_to_freeze().

When watchdog_hardlockup_probe() is being called by
lockup_detector_delay_init(), an error return of -ENODEV will happen
for the arm64 arch when arch_perf_nmi_is_available() returns false. This
means that NMI is not usable by the hard lockup detector and so has to
be disabled. This can be considered a deficiency in that particular
arm64 chip, but there is nothing we can do about it. That also means
the following error will always be reported when the kernel boot up.
watchdog: Delayed init of the lockup detector failed: -19
The word "failed" itself has a connotation that there is something
wrong with the kernel which is not really the case here. Handle this
special ENODEV case separately and explain the reason behind disabling
hard lockup detector without causing anxiety for those users who read
the above message and wonder about it.

On x86_32 Qemu machine with 1GB memory, the cmdline "crashkernel=4G" is ok
as below:
crashkernel reserved: 0x0000000020000000 - 0x0000000120000000 (4096 MB)
It's similar on other architectures, such as ARM32 and RISCV32.
The cause is that the crash_size is parsed and printed with "unsigned long
long" data type which is 8 bytes but allocated used with "phys_addr_t"
which is 4 bytes in memblock_phys_alloc_range().
Fix it by checking if crash_size is greater than system RAM size and
return error if so.
After this patch, there is no above confusing reserve success info.

Patch series "mm, memcg: cg2 memory{.swap,}.peak write handlers", v7.
This patch (of 2):
Other mechanisms for querying the peak memory usage of either a process or
v1 memory cgroup allow for resetting the high watermark. Restore parity
with those mechanisms, but with a less racy API.
For example:
- Any write to memory.max_usage_in_bytes in a cgroup v1 mount resets
the high watermark.
- writing "5" to the clear_refs pseudo-file in a processes's proc
directory resets the peak RSS.
This change is an evolution of a previous patch, which mostly copied the
cgroup v1 behavior, however, there were concerns about races/ownership
issues with a global reset, so instead this change makes the reset
filedescriptor-local.
Writing any non-empty string to the memory.peak and memory.swap.peak
pseudo-files reset the high watermark to the current usage for subsequent
reads through that same FD.
Notably, following Johannes's suggestion, this implementation moves the
O(FDs that have written) behavior onto the FD write(2) path. Instead, on
the page-allocation path, we simply add one additional watermark to
conditionally bump per-hierarchy level in the page-counter.
Additionally, this takes Longman's suggestion of nesting the
page-charging-path checks for the two watermarks to reduce the number of
common-case comparisons.
This behavior is particularly useful for work scheduling systems that need
to track memory usage of worker processes/cgroups per-work-item. Since
memory can't be squeezed like CPU can (the OOM-killer has opinions), these
systems need to track the peak memory usage to compute system/container
fullness when binpacking workitems.
Most notably, Vimeo's use-case involves a system that's doing global
binpacking across many Kubernetes pods/containers, and while we can use
PSI for some local decisions about overload, we strive to avoid packing
workloads too tightly in the first place. To facilitate this, we track
the peak memory usage. However, since we run with long-lived workers (to
amortize startup costs) we need a way to track the high watermark while a
work-item is executing. Polling runs the risk of missing short spikes
that last for timescales below the polling interval, and peak memory
tracking at the cgroup level is otherwise perfect for this use-case.
As this data is used to ensure that binpacked work ends up with sufficient
headroom, this use-case mostly avoids the inaccuracies surrounding
reclaimable memory.

Patch series "mm: split PTE/PMD PT table Kconfig cleanups+clarifications".
This series is a follow up to the fixes:
"[PATCH v1 0/2] mm/hugetlb: fix hugetlb vs. core-mm PT locking"
When working on the fixes, I wondered why 8xx is fine (-> never uses split
PT locks) and how PT locking even works properly with PMD page table
sharing (-> always requires split PMD PT locks).
Let's improve the split PT lock detection, make hugetlb properly depend on
it and make 8xx bail out if it would ever get enabled by accident.
As an alternative to patch #3 we could extend the Kconfig
SPLIT_PTE_PTLOCKS option from patch #2 -- but enforcing it closer to the
code that actually implements it feels a bit nicer for documentation
purposes, and there is no need to actually disable it because it should
always be disabled (!SMP).
Did a bunch of cross-compilations to make sure that split PTE/PMD PT locks
are still getting used where we would expect them.

CONFIG_SPLIT_PMD_PTLOCKS in other Kconfig options.
More cleanups would be reasonable (like the arch-specific "depends on" for
CONFIG_SPLIT_PTE_PTLOCKS), but we'll leave that for another day.

As part of the dynamic kernel stack project, we need to know the amount of
data that can be saved by reducing the default kernel stack size [1].
Provide a kernel stack usage histogram to aid in optimizing kernel stack
sizes and minimizing memory waste in large-scale environments. The
histogram divides stack usage into power-of-two buckets and reports the
results in /proc/vmstat. This information is especially valuable in
environments with millions of machines, where even small optimizations can
have a significant impact.
The histogram data is presented in /proc/vmstat with entries like
"kstack_1k", "kstack_2k", and so on, indicating the number of threads that
exited with stack usage falling within each respective bucket.
Example outputs:
Intel:
$ grep kstack /proc/vmstat
kstack_1k 3
kstack_2k 188
kstack_4k 11391
kstack_8k 243
kstack_16k 0
ARM with 64K page_size:
$ grep kstack /proc/vmstat
kstack_1k 1
kstack_2k 340
kstack_4k 25212
kstack_8k 1659
kstack_16k 0
kstack_32k 0
kstack_64k 0
Note: once the dynamic kernel stack is implemented it will depend on the
implementation the usability of this feature: On hardware that supports
faults on kernel stacks, we will have other metrics that show the total
number of pages allocated for stacks. On hardware where faults are not
supported, we will most likely have some optimization where only some
threads are extended, and for those, these metrics will still be very
useful.

If memory tiering mode is on and a folio is not in the top tier memory,
folio's cpupid field is repurposed to store page access time. Instead of
an open coded check, use a function to encapsulate the check.

Besides the obvious (and desired) difference between krealloc() and
kvrealloc(), there is some inconsistency in their function signatures and
behavior:
- krealloc() frees the memory when the requested size is zero, whereas
kvrealloc() simply returns a pointer to the existing allocation.
- krealloc() behaves like kmalloc() if a NULL pointer is passed, whereas
kvrealloc() does not accept a NULL pointer at all and, if passed,
would fault instead.
- krealloc() is self-contained, whereas kvrealloc() relies on the caller
to provide the size of the previous allocation.
Inconsistent behavior throughout allocation APIs is error prone, hence
make kvrealloc() behave like krealloc(), which seems superior in all
mentioned aspects.
Besides that, implementing kvrealloc() by making use of krealloc() and
vrealloc() provides oppertunities to grow (and shrink) allocations more
efficiently. For instance, vrealloc() can be optimized to allocate and
map additional pages to grow the allocation or unmap and free unused pages
to shrink the allocation.

Fix the condition to exclude the elfcorehdr segment from the SHA digest
calculation.
The j iterator is an index into the output sha_regions[] array, not into
the input image->segment[] array. Once it reaches
image->elfcorehdr_index, all subsequent segments are excluded. Besides,
if the purgatory segment precedes the elfcorehdr segment, the elfcorehdr
may be wrongly included in the calculation.

Pull x86 fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
- x2apic_disable() clears x2apic_state and x2apic_mode unconditionally,
even when the state is X2APIC_ON_LOCKED, which prevents the kernel to
disable it thereby creating inconsistent state.
Reorder the logic so it actually works correctly
- The XSTATE logic for handling LBR is incorrect as it assumes that
XSAVES supports LBR when the CPU supports LBR. In fact both
conditions need to be true. Otherwise the enablement of LBR in the
IA32_XSS MSR fails and subsequently the machine crashes on the next
XRSTORS operation because IA32_XSS is not initialized.
Cache the XSTATE support bit during init and make the related
functions use this cached information and the LBR CPU feature bit to
cure this.
- Cure a long standing bug in KASLR
KASLR uses the full address space between PAGE_OFFSET and vaddr_end
to randomize the starting points of the direct map, vmalloc and
vmemmap regions. It thereby limits the size of the direct map by
using the installed memory size plus an extra configurable margin for
hot-plug memory. This limitation is done to gain more randomization
space because otherwise only the holes between the direct map,
vmalloc, vmemmap and vaddr_end would be usable for randomizing.
The limited direct map size is not exposed to the rest of the kernel,
so the memory hot-plug and resource management related code paths
still operate under the assumption that the available address space
can be determined with MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS.
request_free_mem_region() allocates from (1 << MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS) - 1
downwards. That means the first allocation happens past the end of
the direct map and if unlucky this address is in the vmalloc space,
which causes high_memory to become greater than VMALLOC_START and
consequently causes iounmap() to fail for valid ioremap addresses.
Cure this by exposing the end of the direct map via PHYSMEM_END and
use that for the memory hot-plug and resource management related
places instead of relying on MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS. In the KASLR case
PHYSMEM_END maps to a variable which is initialized by the KASLR
initialization and otherwise it is based on MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS as
before.
- Prevent a data leak in mmio_read(). The TDVMCALL exposes the value of
an initialized variabled on the stack to the VMM. The variable is
only required as output value, so it does not have to exposed to the
VMM in the first place.
- Prevent an array overrun in the resource control code on systems with
Sub-NUMA Clustering enabled because the code failed to adjust the
index by the number of SNC nodes per L3 cache.
