Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:

- Yu Zhao's Multi-Gen LRU patches are here. They've been under test in
linux-next for a couple of months without, to my knowledge, any
negative reports (or any positive ones, come to that).

- Also the Maple Tree from Liam Howlett. An overlapping range-based
tree for vmas. It it apparently slightly more efficient in its own
right, but is mainly targeted at enabling work to reduce mmap_lock
contention.

Liam has identified a number of other tree users in the kernel which
could be beneficially onverted to mapletrees.

Yu Zhao has identified a hard-to-hit but "easy to fix" lockdep splat
at [1]. This has yet to be addressed due to Liam's unfortunately
timed vacation. He is now back and we'll get this fixed up.

- Dmitry Vyukov introduces KMSAN: the Kernel Memory Sanitizer. It uses
clang-generated instrumentation to detect used-unintialized bugs down
to the single bit level.

KMSAN keeps finding bugs. New ones, as well as the legacy ones.

- Yang Shi adds a userspace mechanism (madvise) to induce a collapse of
memory into THPs.

- Zach O'Keefe has expanded Yang Shi's madvise(MADV_COLLAPSE) to
support file/shmem-backed pages.

- userfaultfd updates from Axel Rasmussen

- zsmalloc cleanups from Alexey Romanov

- cleanups from Miaohe Lin: vmscan, hugetlb_cgroup, hugetlb and
memory-failure

- Huang Ying adds enhancements to NUMA balancing memory tiering mode's
page promotion, with a new way of detecting hot pages.

- memcg updates from Shakeel Butt: charging optimizations and reduced
memory consumption.

- memcg cleanups from Kairui Song.

- memcg fixes and cleanups from Johannes Weiner.

- Vishal Moola provides more folio conversions

- Zhang Yi removed ll_rw_block() :(

- migration enhancements from Peter Xu

- migration error-path bugfixes from Huang Ying

- Aneesh Kumar added ability for a device driver to alter the memory
tiering promotion paths. For optimizations by PMEM drivers, DRM
drivers, etc.

- vma merging improvements from Jakub Matěn.

- NUMA hinting cleanups from David Hildenbrand.

- xu xin added aditional userspace visibility into KSM merging
activity.

- THP & KSM code consolidation from Qi Zheng.

- more folio work from Matthew Wilcox.

- KASAN updates from Andrey Konovalov.

- DAMON cleanups from Kaixu Xia.

- DAMON work from SeongJae Park: fixes, cleanups.

- hugetlb sysfs cleanups from Muchun Song.

- Mike Kravetz fixes locking issues in hugetlbfs and in hugetlb core.

Pull ucounts update from Eric Biederman:
 "Split rlimit and ucount values and max values

  After the ucount rlimit code was merged a bunch of small but
  siginificant bugs were found and fixed. At the time it was realized
  that part of the problem was that while the ucount rlimits were very
  similar to the oridinary ucounts (in being nested counts with limits)
  the semantics were slightly different and the code would be less error
  prone if there was less sharing.

  This is the long awaited cleanup that should hopefully keep things
  more comprehensible and less error prone for whoever needs to touch
  that code next"

Pull ptrace update from Eric Biederman:
 "ptrace: Stop supporting SIGKILL for PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT

  Recently I had a conversation where it was pointed out to me that
  SIGKILL sent to a tracee stropped in PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT is quite
  difficult for a tracer to handle.

  Keeping SIGKILL working after the process has been killed is pain from
  an implementation point of view.

  So since the debuggers don't want this behavior let's see if we can
  remove this wart for the userspace API

  If a regression is detected it should only need to be the last change
  that is the reverted. The other two are just general cleanups that
  make the last patch simpler"

hugetlb: add vma based lock for pmd sharing

2022-10-03T21:03:17+00:00

Allocate a new hugetlb_vma_lock structure and hang off vm_private_data for
synchronization use by vmas that could be involved in pmd sharing.  This
data structure contains a rw semaphore that is the primary tool used for
synchronization.

This new structure is ref counted, so that it can exist when NOT attached
to a vma.  This is only helpful in resolving lock ordering issues where
code may need to obtain the vma_lock while there are no guarantees the vma
may go away.  By obtaining a ref on the structure, it can be guaranteed
that at least the rw semaphore will not go away.

Only add infrastructure for the new lock here.  Actual use will be added
in subsequent patches.

mm: remove the vma linked list

2022-09-27T02:46:26+00:00

Replace any vm_next use with vma_find().

Update free_pgtables(), unmap_vmas(), and zap_page_range() to use the
maple tree.

Use the new free_pgtables() and unmap_vmas() in do_mas_align_munmap().  At
the same time, alter the loop to be more compact.

Now that free_pgtables() and unmap_vmas() take a maple tree as an
argument, rearrange do_mas_align_munmap() to use the new tree to hold the
vmas to remove.

Remove __vma_link_list() and __vma_unlink_list() as they are exclusively
used to update the linked list.

Drop linked list update from __insert_vm_struct().

Rework validation of tree as it was depending on the linked list.
