[ Upstream commit dc84bc2aba85a1508f04a936f9f9a15f64ebfb31 ]
If track_pfn_copy() fails, we already added the dst VMA to the maple
tree. As fork() fails, we'll cleanup the maple tree, and stumble over
the dst VMA for which we neither performed any reservation nor copied
any page tables.
Consequently untrack_pfn() will see VM_PAT and try obtaining the
PAT information from the page table -- which fails because the page
table was not copied.
The easiest fix would be to simply clear the VM_PAT flag of the dst VMA
if track_pfn_copy() fails. However, the whole thing is about "simply"
clearing the VM_PAT flag is shaky as well: if we passed track_pfn_copy()
and performed a reservation, but copying the page tables fails, we'll
simply clear the VM_PAT flag, not properly undoing the reservation ...
which is also wrong.
So let's fix it properly: set the VM_PAT flag only if the reservation
succeeded (leaving it clear initially), and undo the reservation if
anything goes wrong while copying the page tables: clearing the VM_PAT
flag after undoing the reservation.
Note that any copied page table entries will get zapped when the VMA will
get removed later, after copy_page_range() succeeded; as VM_PAT is not set
then, we won't try cleaning VM_PAT up once more and untrack_pfn() will be
happy. Note that leaving these page tables in place without a reservation
is not a problem, as we are aborting fork(); this process will never run.
A reproducer can trigger this usually at the first try:

[ Upstream commit a1b65f3f7c6f7f0a08a7dba8be458c6415236487 ]
Turns out that this commit, about 10 years ago:
9ec23531fd48 ("sched/preempt, mm/fault: Trigger might_sleep() in might_fault() with disabled pagefaults")
... accidentally (and unnessecarily) put the lockdep part of
__might_fault() under CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP=y.
This is potentially notable because large distributions such as
Ubuntu are running with !CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP.
Restore the debug check.

Watermarks are initialized during the postcore initcall. Until then, all
watermarks are set to zero. This causes cond_accept_memory() to
incorrectly skip memory acceptance because a watermark of 0 is always met.
This can lead to a premature OOM on boot.
To ensure progress, accept one MAX_ORDER page if the watermark is zero.

Currently on cpu hotplug teardown, only memcg stock is drained but we
need to drain the obj stock as well otherwise we will miss the stats
accumulated on the target cpu as well as the nr_bytes cached. The stats
include MEMCG_KMEM, NR_SLAB_RECLAIMABLE_B & NR_SLAB_UNRECLAIMABLE_B. In
addition we are leaking reference to struct obj_cgroup object.

When an after-split folio is large and needs to be dropped due to EOF,
folio_put_refs(folio, folio_nr_pages(folio)) should be used to drop all
page cache refs. Otherwise, the folio will not be freed, causing memory
leak.
This leak would happen on a filesystem with blocksize > page_size and a
truncate is performed, where the blocksize makes folios split to >0 order
ones, causing truncated folios not being freed.

original report:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/CAKhLTr1UL3ePTpYjXOx2AJfNk8Ku2EdcEfu+CH1sf3Asr=B-Dw@mail.gmail.com/T/
When doing buffered writes with FGP_NOWAIT, under memory pressure, the
system returned ENOMEM despite there being plenty of available memory, to
be reclaimed from page cache. The user space used io_uring interface,
which in turn submits I/O with FGP_NOWAIT (the fast path).
retsnoop pointed to iomap_get_folio:

pos=0 len=4096
This is likely a regression caused by 66dabbb65d67 ("mm: return an ERR_PTR
from __filemap_get_folio"), which moved error handling from
io_map_get_folio() to __filemap_get_folio(), but broke FGP_NOWAIT
handling, so ENOMEM is being escaped to user space. Had it correctly
returned -EAGAIN with NOWAIT, either io_uring or user space itself would
be able to retry the request.
It's not enough to patch io_uring since the iomap interface is the one
responsible for it, and pwritev2(RWF_NOWAIT) and AIO interfaces must
return the proper error too.
The patch was tested with scylladb test suite (its original reproducer),
and the tests all pass now when memory is pressured.

Commit 6769183166b3 removed the parameter of id from swap_cgroup_record()
and get the memcg id from mem_cgroup_id(folio_memcg(folio)). However, the
caller of it may update a different memcg's counter instead of
folio_memcg(folio).
E.g. in the caller of mem_cgroup_swapout(), @swap_memcg could be
different with @memcg and update the counter of @swap_memcg, but
swap_cgroup_record() records the wrong memcg's ID. When it is uncharged
from __mem_cgroup_uncharge_swap(), the swap counter will leak since the
wrong recorded ID.
Fix it by bringing the parameter of id back.

We already are registering private-anon VMAs with khugepaged during fault
time, in do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page(). Commit "register suitable readonly
file vmas for khugepaged" moved the khugepaged registration logic from
shmem_mmap to the generic mmap path.
The userspace-visible effect should be this: khugepaged will unnecessarily
scan mm's which haven't yet faulted in. Note that it won't actually
collapse because all PTEs are none.
Now that I think about it, the mm is going to have a file VMA anyways
during fork+exec, so the mm already gets registered during mmap due to the
non-anon case (I *think*), so at least one of either the mmap registration
or fault-time registration is redundant.
Make this logic specific for non-anon mappings.

A shmem folio can be either in page cache or in swap cache, but not at the
same time. Namely, once it is in swap cache, folio->mapping should be
NULL, and the folio is no longer in a shmem mapping.
In __folio_migrate_mapping(), to determine the number of xarray entries to
update, folio_test_swapbacked() is used, but that conflates shmem in page
cache case and shmem in swap cache case. It leads to xarray multi-index
entry corruption, since it turns a sibling entry to a normal entry during
xas_store() (see [1] for a userspace reproduction). Fix it by only using
folio_test_swapcache() to determine whether xarray is storing swap cache
entries or not to choose the right number of xarray entries to update.
[1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/Z8idPCkaJW1IChjT@casper.infradead.org/
Note:
In __split_huge_page(), folio_test_anon() && folio_test_swapcache() is
used to get swap_cache address space, but that ignores the shmem folio in
swap cache case. It could lead to NULL pointer dereferencing when a
in-swap-cache shmem folio is split at __xa_store(), since
!folio_test_anon() is true and folio->mapping is NULL. But fortunately,
its caller split_huge_page_to_list_to_order() bails out early with EBUSY
when folio->mapping is NULL. So no need to take care of it here.

In dissolve_free_huge_page(), free huge pages are dissolved without
adjusting surplus count. However, free huge pages may be accounted as
surplus pages, and will lead to wrong surplus count.
I reproduce this issue on qemu. The steps are:
1) Node1 is memory-less at first. Hot-add memory to node1 by executing
the two commands in qemu monitor:
object_add memory-backend-ram,id=mem1,size=1G
device_add pc-dimm,id=dimm1,memdev=mem1,node=1
2) online one memory block of Node1 with：
echo online_movable > /sys/devices/system/node/node1/memoryX/state
3) create 64 huge pages for node1
4) run a program to reserve (don't consume) all the huge pages
5) echo 0 > nr_huge_pages for node1. After this step, free huge pages in
Node1 are surplus.
6) create 80 huge pages for node0
7) offline memory of node1, The memory range to offline contains the free
surplus huge pages created in step3) ~ step5)
echo offline > /sys/devices/system/node/node1/memoryX/state
8) kill the program in step 4)
The result:
Node0 Node1
total 80 0
free 80 0
surplus 0 61
To fix it, adjust surplus when destroying huge pages if the node has
surplus pages in dissolve_free_hugetlb_folio().
The result with this patch:
Node0 Node1
total 80 0
free 80 0
surplus 0 0

The function for allocating and initialize a 'struct damos' object,
damon_new_scheme(), is not initializing damos->walk_completed field. Only
damos_walk_complete() is setting the field. Hence the field will be
eventually set and used correctly from second damos_walk() call for the
scheme. But the first damos_walk() could mistakenly not walk on the
regions. Actually, a common usage of DAMOS for taking an access pattern
snapshot is installing a monitoring-purpose DAMOS scheme, doing
damos_walk() to retrieve the snapshot, and then removing the scheme.
DAMON user-space tool (damo) also gets runtime snapshot in the way. Hence
the problem can continuously happen in such use cases. Initialize it
properly in the allocation function.

Filtering decisions are made in filters evaluation order. Once a decision
is made by a filter, filters that scheduled to be evaluated after the
decision-made filter should just respect it. This is the intended and
documented behavior. Since core layer-handled filters are evaluated
before operations layer-handled filters, decisions made on core layer
should respected by ops layer.
In case of reject filters, the decision is respected, since core
layer-rejected regions are not passed to ops layer. But in case of allow
filters, ops layer filters don't know if the region has passed to them
because it was allowed by core filters or just because it didn't match to
any core layer. The current wrong implementation assumes it was due to
not matched by any core filters. As a reuslt, the decision is not
respected. Pass the missing information to ops layer using a new filed in
'struct damos', and make the ops layer filters respect it.

There is a generic anti-pattern that shows up in the VFS and several
filesystems where the hot write paths touch userspace twice when they
could get away with doing it once.
Dave Chinner suggested that they should all be fixed up[1]. I agree[2].
But, the series to do that fixup spans a bunch of filesystems and a lot of
people. This patch fixes common code that absolutely everyone uses. It
has measurable performance benefits[3].
I think this patch can go in and not be held up by the others.
I will post them separately to their separate maintainers for
consideration. But, honestly, I'm not going to lose any sleep if
the maintainers don't pick those up.

This patch:
There is a bit of a sordid history here. I originally wrote
998ef75ddb57 ("fs: do not prefault sys_write() user buffer pages")
to fix a performance issue that showed up on early SMAP hardware.
But that was reverted with 00a3d660cbac because it exposed an
underlying filesystem bug.
This is a reimplementation of the original commit along with some
simplification and comment improvements.
The basic problem is that the generic write path has two userspace
accesses: one to prefault the write source buffer and then another to
perform the actual write. On x86, this means an extra STAC/CLAC pair.
These are relatively expensive instructions because they function as
barriers.
Keep the prefaulting behavior but move it into the slow path that gets
run when the write did not make any progress. This avoids livelocks
that can happen when the write's source and destination target the
same folio. Contrary to the existing comments, the fault-in does not
prevent deadlocks. That's accomplished by using an "atomic" usercopy
that disables page faults.
The end result is that the generic write fast path now touches
userspace once instead of twice.
0day has shown some improvements on a couple of microbenchmarks:

This reverts commit 8392bc2ff8c8bf7c4c5e6dfa71ccd893a3c046f6.
In the use case of buffered write whose input buffer is mmapped file on a
filesystem with a pre-content mark, the prefaulting of the buffer can
happen under the filesystem freeze protection (obtained in vfs_write())
which breaks assumptions of pre-content hook and introduces potential
deadlock of HSM handler in userspace with filesystem freezing.
Now that we have pre-content hooks at file mmap() time, disable the
pre-content event hooks on page fault to avoid the potential deadlock.

Pre-content hooks in page faults introduces potential deadlock of HSM
handler in userspace with filesystem freezing.
The requirement with pre-content event is that for every accessed file
range an event covering at least this range will be generated at least
once before the file data is accesses.
In preparation to disabling pre-content event hooks on page faults,
add pre-content hooks at mmap() variants for the entire mmaped range,
so HSM can fill content when user requests to map a portion of the file.
Note that exec() variant also calls vm_mmap_pgoff() internally to map
code sections, so pre-content hooks are also generated in this case.

The fix to atomically read the pipe head and tail state when not holding
the pipe mutex has caused a number of headaches due to the size change
of the involved types.
It turns out that we don't have _that_ many places that access these
fields directly and were affected, but we have more than we strictly
should have, because our low-level helper functions have been designed
to have intimate knowledge of how the pipes work.
And as a result, that random noise of direct 'pipe->head' and
'pipe->tail' accesses makes it harder to pinpoint any actual potential
problem spots remaining.
For example, we didn't have a "is the pipe full" helper function, but
instead had a "given these pipe buffer indexes and this pipe size, is
the pipe full". That's because some low-level pipe code does actually
want that much more complicated interface.
But most other places literally just want a "is the pipe full" helper,
and not having it meant that those places ended up being unnecessarily
much too aware of this all.
It would have been much better if only the very core pipe code that
cared had been the one aware of this all.
So let's fix it - better late than never. This just introduces the
trivial wrappers for "is this pipe full or empty" and to get how many
pipe buffers are used, so that instead of writing
if (pipe_full(pipe->head, pipe->tail, pipe->max_usage))
the places that literally just want to know if a pipe is full can just
say
if (pipe_is_full(pipe))
instead. The existing trivial cases were converted with a 'sed' script.
This cuts down on the places that access pipe->head and pipe->tail
directly outside of the pipe code (and core splice code) quite a lot.
The splice code in particular still revels in doing the direct low-level
accesses, and the fuse fuse_dev_splice_write() code also seems a bit
unnecessarily eager to go very low-level, but it's at least a bit better
than it used to be.

for empty zone"
Commit 96a5c186efff ("mm/page_alloc.c: don't show protection in zone's
->lowmem_reserve[] for empty zone") removes the protection of lower zones
from allocations targeting memory-less high zones. This had an unintended
impact on the pattern of reclaims because it makes the high-zone-targeted
allocation more likely to succeed in lower zones, which adds pressure to
said zones. I.e, the following corresponding checks in
zone_watermark_ok/zone_watermark_fast are less likely to trigger:
if (free_pages <= min + z->lowmem_reserve[highest_zoneidx])
return false;
As a result, we are observing an increase in reclaim and kswapd scans, due
to the increased pressure. This was initially observed as increased
latency in filesystem operations when benchmarking with fio on a machine
with some memory-less zones, but it has since been associated with
increased contention in locks related to memory reclaim. By reverting
this patch, the original performance was recovered on that machine.
The original commit was introduced as a clarification of the
/proc/zoneinfo output, so it doesn't seem there are usecases depending on
it, making the revert a simple solution.
For reference, I collected vmstat with and without this patch on a freshly
booted system running intensive randread io from an nvme for 5 minutes. I
got:
rpm-6.12.0-slfo.1.2 -> pgscan_kswapd 5629543865
Patched -> pgscan_kswapd 33580844
33M scans is similar to what we had in kernels predating this patch.
These numbers is fairly representative of the workload on this machine, as
measured in several runs. So we are talking about a 2-order of magnitude
increase.

When handling faults for anon shmem finish_fault() will attempt to install
ptes for the entire folio. Unfortunately if it encounters a single
non-pte_none entry in that range it will bail, even if the pte that
triggered the fault is still pte_none. When this situation happens the
fault will be retried endlessly never making forward progress.
This patch fixes this behavior and if it detects that a pte in the range
is not pte_none it will fall back to setting a single pte.

Current implementation of move_pages_pte() copies source and destination
PTEs in order to detect concurrent changes to PTEs involved in the move.
However these copies are also used to unmap the PTEs, which will fail if
CONFIG_HIGHPTE is enabled because the copies are allocated on the stack.
Fix this by using the actual PTEs which were kmap()ed.

Lokesh recently raised an issue about UFFDIO_MOVE getting into a deadlock
state when it goes into split_folio() with raised folio refcount.
split_folio() expects the reference count to be exactly mapcount +
num_pages_in_folio + 1 (see can_split_folio()) and fails with EAGAIN
otherwise.
If multiple processes are trying to move the same large folio, they raise
the refcount (all tasks succeed in that) then one of them succeeds in
locking the folio, while others will block in folio_lock() while keeping
the refcount raised. The winner of this race will proceed with calling
split_folio() and will fail returning EAGAIN to the caller and unlocking
the folio. The next competing process will get the folio locked and will
go through the same flow. In the meantime the original winner will be
retried and will block in folio_lock(), getting into the queue of waiting
processes only to repeat the same path. All this results in a livelock.
An easy fix would be to avoid waiting for the folio lock while holding
folio refcount, similar to madvise_free_huge_pmd() where folio lock is
acquired before raising the folio refcount. Since we lock and take a
refcount of the folio while holding the PTE lock, changing the order of
these operations should not break anything.
Modify move_pages_pte() to try locking the folio first and if that fails
and the folio is large then return EAGAIN without touching the folio
refcount. If the folio is single-page then split_folio() is not called,
so we don't have this issue. Lokesh has a reproducer [1] and I verified
that this change fixes the issue.

Alex and Kairui reported some issues (system hang or data corruption) when
swapping out or swapping in large shmem folios. This is especially easy
to reproduce when the tmpfs is mount with the 'huge=within_size'
parameter. Thanks to Kairui's reproducer, the issue can be easily
replicated.
The root cause of the problem is that swap readahead may asynchronously
swap in order 0 folios into the swap cache, while the shmem mapping can
still store large swap entries. Then an order 0 folio is inserted into
the shmem mapping without splitting the large swap entry, which overwrites
the original large swap entry, leading to data corruption.
When getting a folio from the swap cache, we should split the large swap
entry stored in the shmem mapping if the orders do not match, to fix this
issue.

userfaultfd_move() checks whether the PTE entry is present or a
swap entry.
- If the PTE entry is present, move_present_pte() handles folio
migration by setting:
src_folio->index = linear_page_index(dst_vma, dst_addr);
- If the PTE entry is a swap entry, move_swap_pte() simply copies
the PTE to the new dst_addr.
This approach is incorrect because, even if the PTE is a swap entry,
it can still reference a folio that remains in the swap cache.
This creates a race window between steps 2 and 4.
1. add_to_swap: The folio is added to the swapcache.
2. try_to_unmap: PTEs are converted to swap entries.
3. pageout: The folio is written back.
4. Swapcache is cleared.
If userfaultfd_move() occurs in the window between steps 2 and 4,
after the swap PTE has been moved to the destination, accessing the
destination triggers do_swap_page(), which may locate the folio in
the swapcache. However, since the folio's index has not been updated
to match the destination VMA, do_swap_page() will detect a mismatch.
This can result in two critical issues depending on the system
configuration.
If KSM is disabled, both small and large folios can trigger a BUG
during the add_rmap operation due to:
page_pgoff(folio, page) != linear_page_index(vma, address)
