mm/huge_memory: optimize old_order derivation during folio splitting
Folio splitting requires both the folio's original order (@old_order) and
the new target order (@split_order).
In the current implementation, @old_order is repeatedly retrieved using
folio_order().
However, for every iteration after the first, the folio being split is the
result of the previous split, meaning its order is already known to be
equal to the previous iteration's @split_order.
This commit optimizes the logic:
* Instead of calling folio_order(), we now set @old_order directly to
the value of @split_order from the previous iteration.
This change avoids unnecessary function calls and simplifies the loop
setup.
Also it removes a check for non-existent case, since for uniform splitting
we only do split when @split_order == @new_order.

mm/huge_memory: optimize and simplify folio stat update after split
The loop executed after a successful folio split currently has two
combined responsibilities:
* updating statistics for the new folios
* determining the folio for the next split iteration.
This commit refactors the logic to directly calculate and update folio
statistics, eliminating the need for the iteration step.
We can do this because all necessary information is already available:
* All resulting new folios have the same order, which is @split_order.
* The exact number of new folios can be calculated directly using
@old_order and @split_order.
* The folio for the subsequent split is simply the one containing
@split_at.
By leveraging this knowledge, we can achieve the stat update more cleanly
and efficiently without the looping logic.

mm/huge_memory: update folio stat after successful split
The current implementation complicates this process:
* It iterates over the resulting new folios.
* It uses a flag (@stop_split) to conditionally skip updating the stat
for the folio at @split_at during the loop.
* It then attempts to update the skipped stat on a subsequent failure
path.
This logic is unnecessarily hard to follow.
This commit refactors the code to update the folio statistics only after a
successful split. This makes the logic much cleaner and sets the stage
for further simplification of the stat-handling code.

mm/huge_memory: avoid reinvoking folio_test_anon()
Patch series "mm/huge_memory: cleanup __split_unmapped_folio()", v3. This patch series cleans up and optimizes the internal logic of the __split_unmapped_folio() function. The goal is to improve clarity and efficiency by eliminating redundant checks, caching stable attribute values, and simplifying the iteration logic used for updating folio statistics. These changes make the code easier to follow and maintain. The split_huge_page_test selftest pass. This patch (of 4): During the execution of __split_unmapped_folio(), the folio's anon/!anon attribute is invariant (not expected to change). Therefore, it is safe and more efficient to retrieve this attribute once at the start and reuse it throughout the function.

mm: huge_memory: use folio_can_map_prot_numa() for pmd folio
The folio_can_map_prot_numa() checks whether the folio can map prot numa, which skips unsuitable folio, i.e. zone device, shared folios (KSM, CoW), non-movable dma pinned, dirty file folio and folios that already have the expected node affinity. Although the ksm only applies to small folios, an extra test was added for large folios, but the other policies should be applied to pmd folio, which helps to avoid unnecessary pmd change and folio migration attempts.

mm/userfaultfd: don't lock anon_vma when performing UFFDIO_MOVE
Now that rmap_walk() is guaranteed to be called with the folio lock held, we can stop serializing on the src VMA anon_vma lock when moving an exclusive folio from a src VMA to a dst VMA in UFFDIO_MOVE ioctl. When moving a folio, we modify folio->mapping through folio_move_anon_rmap() and adjust folio->index accordingly. Doing that while we could have concurrent RMAP walks would be dangerous. Therefore, to avoid that, we had to acquire anon_vma of src VMA in write-mode. That meant that when multiple threads called UFFDIO_MOVE concurrently on distinct pages of the same src VMA, they would serialize on it, hurting scalability. In addition to avoiding the scalability bottleneck, this patch also simplifies the complicated lock dance that UFFDIO_MOVE has to go through between RCU, folio-lock, ptl, and anon_vma. folio_move_anon_rmap() already enforces that the folio is locked. So when we have the folio locked we can no longer race with concurrent rmap_walk() as used by folio_referenced() and others who call it on unlocked non-KSM anon folios, and therefore the anon_vma lock is no longer required. Note that this handling is now the same as for other folio_move_anon_rmap() users that also do not hold the anon_vma lock -- namely COW reuse handling (do_wp_page()->wp_can_reuse_anon_folio(), do_huge_pmd_wp_page(), and hugetlb_wp()). These users never required the anon_vma lock as they are only moving the anon VMA closer to the anon_vma leaf of the VMA, for example, from an anon_vma root to a leaf of that root. rmap walks were always able to tolerate that scenario.

mm: consistently use current->mm in mm_get_unmapped_area()
mm_get_unmapped_area() is a wrapper around arch_get_unmapped_area() / arch_get_unmapped_area_topdown(), both of which search current->mm for some free space. Neither take an mm_struct - they implicitly operate on current->mm. But the wrapper takes an mm_struct and uses it to decide whether to search bottom up or top down. All callers pass in current->mm for this, so everything is working consistently. But it feels like an accident waiting to happen; eventually someone will call that function with a different mm, expecting to find free space in it, but what gets returned is free space in the current mm. So let's simplify by removing the parameter and have the wrapper use current->mm to decide which end to start at. Now everything is consistent and self-documenting.

mm/huge_memory: fix folio split check for anon folios in swapcache
Both uniform and non uniform split check missed the check to prevent
splitting anon folios in swapcache to non-zero order.
Splitting anon folios in swapcache to non-zero order can cause data
corruption since swapcache only support PMD order and order-0 entries.
This can happen when one use split_huge_pages under debugfs to split
anon folios in swapcache.
In-tree callers do not perform such an illegal operation. Only debugfs
interface could trigger it. I will put adding a test case on my TODO
list.
Fix the check.

mm/huge_memory: initialise the tags of the huge zero folio
On arm64 with MTE enabled, a page mapped as Normal Tagged (PROT_MTE) in user space will need to have its allocation tags initialised. This is normally done in the arm64 set_pte_at() after checking the memory attributes. Such page is also marked with the PG_mte_tagged flag to avoid subsequent clearing. Since this relies on having a struct page, pte_special() mappings are ignored. Commit |

mm/huge_memory: preserve PG_has_hwpoisoned if a folio is split to >0 order
folio split clears PG_has_hwpoisoned, but the flag should be preserved in
after-split folios containing pages with PG_hwpoisoned flag if the folio
is split to >0 order folios. Scan all pages in a to-be-split folio to
determine which after-split folios need the flag.
An alternatives is to change PG_has_hwpoisoned to PG_maybe_hwpoisoned to
avoid the scan and set it on all after-split folios, but resulting false
positive has undesirable negative impact. To remove false positive,
caller of folio_test_has_hwpoisoned() and folio_contain_hwpoisoned_page()
needs to do the scan. That might be causing a hassle for current and
future callers and more costly than doing the scan in the split code.
More details are discussed in [1].
This issue can be exposed via:
1. splitting a has_hwpoisoned folio to >0 order from debugfs interface;
2. truncating part of a has_hwpoisoned folio in
truncate_inode_partial_folio().
And later accesses to a hwpoisoned page could be possible due to the
missing has_hwpoisoned folio flag. This will lead to MCE errors.

mm: prevent poison consumption when splitting THP
When performing memory error injection on a THP (Transparent Huge Page)
mapped to userspace on an x86 server, the kernel panics with the following
trace. The expected behavior is to terminate the affected process instead
of panicking the kernel, as the x86 Machine Check code can recover from an
in-userspace #MC.
mce: [Hardware Error]: CPU 0: Machine Check Exception: f Bank 3: bd80000000070134
mce: [Hardware Error]: RIP 10:<ffffffff8372f8bc> {memchr_inv+0x4c/0xf0}
mce: [Hardware Error]: TSC afff7bbff88a ADDR 1d301b000 MISC 80 PPIN 1e741e77539027db
mce: [Hardware Error]: PROCESSOR 0:d06d0 TIME 1758093249 SOCKET 0 APIC 0 microcode 80000320
mce: [Hardware Error]: Run the above through 'mcelog --ascii'
mce: [Hardware Error]: Machine check: Data load in unrecoverable area of kernel
Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal local machine check
The root cause of this panic is that handling a memory failure triggered
by an in-userspace #MC necessitates splitting the THP. The splitting
process employs a mechanism, implemented in
try_to_map_unused_to_zeropage(), which reads the pages in the THP to
identify zero-filled pages. However, reading the pages in the THP results
in a second in-kernel #MC, occurring before the initial memory_failure()
completes, ultimately leading to a kernel panic. See the kernel panic
call trace on the two #MCs.
First Machine Check occurs // [1]
memory_failure() // [2]
try_to_split_thp_page()
split_huge_page()
split_huge_page_to_list_to_order()
__folio_split() // [3]
remap_page()
remove_migration_ptes()
remove_migration_pte()
try_to_map_unused_to_zeropage() // [4]
memchr_inv() // [5]
Second Machine Check occurs // [6]
Kernel panic
[1] Triggered by accessing a hardware-poisoned THP in userspace, which is
typically recoverable by terminating the affected process.
[2] Call folio_set_has_hwpoisoned() before try_to_split_thp_page().
[3] Pass the RMP_USE_SHARED_ZEROPAGE remap flag to remap_page().
[4] Try to map the unused THP to zeropage.
[5] Re-access pages in the hw-poisoned THP in the kernel.
[6] Triggered in-kernel, leading to a panic kernel.
In Step[2], memory_failure() sets the poisoned flag on the page in the THP
by TestSetPageHWPoison() before calling try_to_split_thp_page().
As suggested by David Hildenbrand, fix this panic by not accessing to the
poisoned page in the THP during zeropage identification, while continuing
to scan unaffected pages in the THP for possible zeropage mapping. This
prevents a second in-kernel #MC that would cause kernel panic in Step[4].
Thanks to Andrew Zaborowski for his initial work on fixing this issue.

mm/thp: fix MTE tag mismatch when replacing zero-filled subpages
When both THP and MTE are enabled, splitting a THP and replacing its
zero-filled subpages with the shared zeropage can cause MTE tag mismatch
faults in userspace.
Remapping zero-filled subpages to the shared zeropage is unsafe, as the
zeropage has a fixed tag of zero, which may not match the tag expected by
the userspace pointer.
KSM already avoids this problem by using memcmp_pages(), which on arm64
intentionally reports MTE-tagged pages as non-identical to prevent unsafe
merging.
As suggested by David[1], this patch adopts the same pattern, replacing the
memchr_inv() byte-level check with a call to pages_identical(). This
leverages existing architecture-specific logic to determine if a page is
truly identical to the shared zeropage.
Having both the THP shrinker and KSM rely on pages_identical() makes the
design more future-proof, IMO. Instead of handling quirks in generic code,
we just let the architecture decide what makes two pages identical.

mm: skip mlocked THPs that are underused early in deferred_split_scan()
When we stumble over a fully-mapped mlocked THP in the deferred shrinker, it does not make sense to try to detect whether it is underused, because try_to_map_unused_to_zeropage(), called while splitting the folio, will not actually replace any zeroed pages by the shared zeropage. Splitting the folio in that case does not make any sense, so let's not even scan to check if the folio is underused.

mm, swap: use the swap table for the swap cache and switch API
Introduce basic swap table infrastructures, which are now just a fixed-sized flat array inside each swap cluster, with access wrappers. Each cluster contains a swap table of 512 entries. Each table entry is an opaque atomic long. It could be in 3 types: a shadow type (XA_VALUE), a folio type (pointer), or NULL. In this first step, it only supports storing a folio or shadow, and it is a drop-in replacement for the current swap cache. Convert all swap cache users to use the new sets of APIs. Chris Li has been suggesting using a new infrastructure for swap cache for better performance, and that idea combined well with the swap table as the new backing structure. Now the lock contention range is reduced to 2M clusters, which is much smaller than the 64M address_space. And we can also drop the multiple address_space design. All the internal works are done with swap_cache_get_* helpers. Swap cache lookup is still lock-less like before, and the helper's contexts are same with original swap cache helpers. They still require a pin on the swap device to prevent the backing data from being freed. Swap cache updates are now protected by the swap cluster lock instead of the XArray lock. This is mostly handled internally, but new __swap_cache_* helpers require the caller to lock the cluster. So, a few new cluster access and locking helpers are also introduced. A fully cluster-based unified swap table can be implemented on top of this to take care of all count tracking and synchronization work, with dynamic allocation. It should reduce the memory usage while making the performance even better.

mm, swap: wrap swap cache replacement with a helper
There are currently three swap cache users that are trying to replace an existing folio with a new one: huge memory splitting, migration, and shmem replacement. What they are doing is quite similar. Introduce a common helper for this. In later commits, this can be easily switched to use the swap table by updating this helper. The newly added helper also makes the swap cache API better defined, and make debugging easier by adding a few more debug checks. Migration and shmem replace are meant to clone the folio, including content, swap entry value, and flags. And splitting will adjust each sub folio's swap entry according to order, which could be non-uniform in the future. So document it clearly that it's the caller's responsibility to set up the new folio's swap entries and flags before calling the helper. The helper will just follow the new folio's entry value. This also prepares for replacing high-order folios in the swap cache. Currently, only splitting to order 0 is allowed for swap cache folios. Using the new helper, we can handle high-order folio splitting better.

mm/huge_memory: add new_order and offset to split_huge_pages*() pr_debug
Patch series "Better split_huge_page_test result check", v5. This patchset uses kpageflags to get after-split folio orders for a better split_huge_page_test result check[1]. The added gather_after_split_folio_orders() scans through a VPN range and collects the numbers of folios at different orders. check_after_split_folio_orders() compares the result of gather_after_split_folio_orders() to a given list of numbers of different orders. This patchset also adds new order and in folio offset to the split huge page debugfs's pr_debug()s; This patch (of 5): They are useful information for debugging split huge page tests.

mm: introduce memdesc_flags_t
Patch series "Add and use memdesc_flags_t". At some point struct page will be separated from struct slab and struct folio. This is a step towards that by introducing a type for the 'flags' word of all three structures. This gives us a certain amount of type safety by establishing that some of these unsigned longs are different from other unsigned longs in that they contain things like node ID, section number and zone number in the upper bits. That lets us have functions that can be easily called by anyone who has a slab, folio or page (but not easily by anyone else) to get the node or zone. There's going to be some unusual merge problems with this as some odd bits of the kernel decide they want to print out the flags value or something similar by writing page->flags and now they'll need to write page->flags.f instead. That's most of the churn here. Maybe we should be removing these things from the debug output? This patch (of 11): Wrap the unsigned long flags in a typedef. In upcoming patches, this will provide a strong hint that you can't just pass a random unsigned long to functions which take this as an argument.

mm/huge_memory: respect MADV_COLLAPSE with PR_THP_DISABLE_EXCEPT_ADVISED
Let's allow for making MADV_COLLAPSE succeed on areas that neither have VM_HUGEPAGE nor VM_NOHUGEPAGE when we have THP disabled unless explicitly advised (PR_THP_DISABLE_EXCEPT_ADVISED). MADV_COLLAPSE is a clear advice that we want to collapse. Note that we still respect the VM_NOHUGEPAGE flag, just like MADV_COLLAPSE always does. So consequently, MADV_COLLAPSE is now only refused on VM_NOHUGEPAGE with PR_THP_DISABLE_EXCEPT_ADVISED, including for shmem.

mm/huge_memory: convert "tva_flags" to "enum tva_type"
When determining which THP orders are eligible for a VMA mapping, we have previously specified tva_flags, however it turns out it is really not necessary to treat these as flags. Rather, we distinguish between distinct modes. The only case where we previously combined flags was with TVA_ENFORCE_SYSFS, but we can avoid this by observing that this is the default, except for MADV_COLLAPSE or an edge cases in collapse_pte_mapped_thp() and hugepage_vma_revalidate(), and adding a mode specifically for this case - TVA_FORCED_COLLAPSE. We have: * smaps handling for showing "THPeligible" * Pagefault handling * khugepaged handling * Forced collapse handling: primarily MADV_COLLAPSE, but also for an edge case in collapse_pte_mapped_thp() Disregarding the edge cases, we only want to ignore sysfs settings only when we are forcing a collapse through MADV_COLLAPSE, otherwise we want to enforce it, hence this patch does the following flag to enum conversions: * TVA_SMAPS | TVA_ENFORCE_SYSFS -> TVA_SMAPS * TVA_IN_PF | TVA_ENFORCE_SYSFS -> TVA_PAGEFAULT * TVA_ENFORCE_SYSFS -> TVA_KHUGEPAGED * 0 -> TVA_FORCED_COLLAPSE With this change, we immediately know if we are in the forced collapse case, which will be valuable next.

mm: convert core mm to mm_flags_*() accessors
As part of the effort to move to mm->flags becoming a bitmap field, convert existing users to making use of the mm_flags_*() accessors which will, when the conversion is complete, be the only means of accessing mm_struct flags. This will result in the debug output being that of a bitmap output, which will result in a minor change here, but since this is for debug only, this should have no bearing. Otherwise, no functional changes intended.

mm: add persistent huge zero folio
Many places in the kernel need to zero out larger chunks, but the maximum segment that can be zeroed out at a time by ZERO_PAGE is limited by PAGE_SIZE. This is especially annoying in block devices and filesystems where multiple ZERO_PAGEs are attached to the bio in different bvecs. With multipage bvec support in block layer, it is much more efficient to send out larger zero pages as a part of single bvec. This concern was raised during the review of adding Large Block Size support to XFS[1][2]. Usually huge_zero_folio is allocated on demand, and it will be deallocated by the shrinker if there are no users of it left. At moment, huge_zero_folio infrastructure refcount is tied to the process lifetime that created it. This might not work for bio layer as the completions can be async and the process that created the huge_zero_folio might no longer be alive. And, one of the main points that came up during discussion is to have something bigger than zero page as a drop-in replacement. Add a config option PERSISTENT_HUGE_ZERO_FOLIO that will result in allocating the huge zero folio during early init and never free the memory by disabling the shrinker. This makes using the huge_zero_folio without having to pass any mm struct and does not tie the lifetime of the zero folio to anything, making it a drop-in replacement for ZERO_PAGE. If PERSISTENT_HUGE_ZERO_FOLIO config option is enabled, then mm_get_huge_zero_folio() will simply return the allocated page instead of dynamically allocating a new PMD page. Use this option carefully in resource constrained systems as it uses one full PMD sized page for zeroing purposes.

Many places in the kernel need to zero out larger chunks, but the maximum segment we can zero out at a time by ZERO_PAGE is limited by PAGE_SIZE. This concern was raised during the review of adding Large Block Size support to XFS[1][2]. This is especially annoying in block devices and filesystems where multiple ZERO_PAGEs are attached to the bio in different bvecs. With multipage bvec support in block layer, it is much more efficient to send out larger zero pages as a part of single bvec. Some examples of places in the kernel where this could be useful: - blkdev_issue_zero_pages() - iomap_dio_zero() - vmalloc.c:zero_iter() - rxperf_process_call() - fscrypt_zeroout_range_inline_crypt() - bch2_checksum_update() ... Usually huge_zero_folio is allocated on demand, and it will be deallocated by the shrinker if there are no users of it left. At the moment, huge_zero_folio infrastructure refcount is tied to the process lifetime that created it. This might not work for bio layer as the completions can be async and the process that created the huge_zero_folio might no longer be alive. And, one of the main point that came during discussion is to have something bigger than zero page as a drop-in replacement. Add a config option PERSISTENT_HUGE_ZERO_FOLIO that will always allocate the huge_zero_folio, and disable the shrinker so that huge_zero_folio is never freed. This makes using the huge_zero_folio without having to pass any mm struct and does not tie the lifetime of the zero folio to anything, making it a drop-in replacement for ZERO_PAGE. I have converted blkdev_issue_zero_pages() as an example as a part of this series. I also noticed close to 4% performance improvement just by replacing ZERO_PAGE with persistent huge_zero_folio. I will send patches to individual subsystems using the huge_zero_folio once this gets upstreamed.

mm/huge_memory: mark PMD mappings of the huge zero folio special
The huge zero folio is refcounted (+mapcounted -- is that a word?) differently than "normal" folios, similarly (but different) to the ordinary shared zeropage. For this reason, we special-case these pages in vm_normal_page*/vm_normal_folio*, and only allow selected callers to still use them (e.g., GUP can still take a reference on them). vm_normal_page_pmd() already filters out the huge zero folio, to indicate it a special (return NULL). However, so far we are not making use of pmd_special() on architectures that support it (CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL), like we would with the ordinary shared zeropage. Let's mark PMD mappings of the huge zero folio similarly as special, so we can avoid the manual check for the huge zero folio with CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL next, and only perform the check on !CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL. In copy_huge_pmd(), where we have a manual pmd_special() check to handle PFNMAP, we have to manually rule out the huge zero folio. That code needs a serious cleanup, but that's something for another day. While at it, update the doc regarding the shared zero folios. No functional change intended: vm_normal_page_pmd() still returns NULL when it encounters the huge zero folio.

mm/huge_memory: refactor after-split (page) cache code
Smatch/coverity checkers report NULL mapping referencing issues[1][2][3] every time the code is modified, because they do not understand that mapping cannot be NULL when a folio is in page cache in the code.

mm/huge_memory: get frozen folio refcount with folio_expected_ref_count()
Instead of open coding the refcount calculation, use folio_expected_ref_count() to calculate frozen folio refcount. Because: 1. __folio_split() does not split a folio with PG_private, so no elevated refcount from PG_private; 2. a frozen folio in __folio_split() is fully unmapped, so folio_mapcount() in folio_expected_ref_count() is always 0; 3. (mapping || swap_cache) ? folio_nr_pages(folio) is taken care of by folio_expected_ref_count() too.

mm/huge_memory: move unrelated code out of __split_unmapped_folio()
Patch series "__folio_split() clean up", v5. This patchset refactors __folio_split() and __split_unmapped_folio() to: 1. make __split_unmapped_folio() reusable for splitting unmapped folios. It avoids the need for a new boolean unmapped parameter to guard mapping-related code when __split_unmapped_folio() is reused to split unmapped folios. 2. improve code readability and prevent smatch/coverity checkers from complaining about NULL mapping referencing. An additional benefit for __split_unmapped_folio() refactoring is that __split_unmapped_folio() could be called on after-split folios by __folio_split(). It can enable new split methods. For example, at deferred split time, unmapped subpages can scatter arbitrarily within a large folio, neither uniform nor non-uniform split can maximize after-split folio orders for mapped subpages. The hope is that by calling __split_unmapped_folio() multiple times, a better split result can be achieved. This patch (of 6): remap(), folio_ref_unfreeze(), lru_add_split_folio() are not relevant to splitting unmapped folio operations. Move them out to __folio_split() so that __split_unmapped_folio() only handles unmapped folio splits. This makes __split_unmapped_folio() reusable. Remove the swapcache folio split check code before __split_unmapped_folio() call, since it is already checked at the beginning of __folio_split() in uniform_split_supported() and non_uniform_split_supported(). Along with the code move, there are some variable renames: 1. release is renamed to new_folio, 2. origin_folio is now folio, since __folio_split() has folio pointing to the original folio already.

mm/huge_memory: remove pXd_devmap usage from insert_pXd_pfn()
Nothing uses PFN_DEV anymore so no need to create devmap pXd's when mapping a PFN. Instead special mappings will be created which ensures vm_normal_page_pXd() will not return pages which don't have an associated page. This could change behaviour slightly on architectures where pXd_devmap() does not imply pXd_special() as the normal page checks would have fallen through to checking VM_PFNMAP/MIXEDMAP instead, which in theory at least could have returned a page. However vm_normal_page_pXd() should never have been returning pages for pXd_devmap() entries anyway, so anything relying on that would have been a bug.

mm/gup: remove pXX_devmap usage from get_user_pages()
GUP uses pXX_devmap() calls to see if it needs to a get a reference on the associated pgmap data structure to ensure the pages won't go away. However it's a driver responsibility to ensure that if pages are mapped (ie. discoverable by GUP) that they are not offlined or removed from the memmap so there is no need to hold a reference on the pgmap data structure to ensure this. Furthermore mappings with PFN_DEV are no longer created, hence this effectively dead code anyway so can be removed.

mm: update core kernel code to use vm_flags_t consistently
The core kernel code is currently very inconsistent in its use of vm_flags_t vs. unsigned long. This prevents us from changing the type of vm_flags_t in the future and is simply not correct, so correct this. While this results in rather a lot of churn, it is a critical pre-requisite for a future planned change to VMA flag type. Additionally, update VMA userland tests to account for the changes. To make review easier and to break things into smaller parts, driver and architecture-specific changes is left for a subsequent commit. The code has been adjusted to cascade the changes across all calling code as far as is needed. We will adjust architecture-specific and driver code in a subsequent patch. Overall, this patch does not introduce any functional change.

mm: huge_memory: fix the check for allowed huge orders in shmem
Shmem already supports mTHP, and shmem_allowable_huge_orders() will return
the huge orders allowed by shmem. However, there is no check against the
'orders' parameter passed by __thp_vma_allowable_orders(), which can lead
to incorrect check results for __thp_vma_allowable_orders().
For example, when a user wants to check if shmem supports PMD-sized THP by
thp_vma_allowable_order(), if shmem only enables 64K mTHP, the current
logic would cause thp_vma_allowable_order() to return true, implying that
shmem allows PMD-sized THP allocation, which it actually does not.
I don't think this will cause a significant impact on users, and this will
only have some impact on the shmem THP collapse. That is to say, even
though the shmem sysfs setting does not enable the PMD-sized THP, the
thp_vma_allowable_order() still indicates that shmem allows PMD-sized
collapse, meaning it might successfully collapse into THP, or it might not
(for example, thp_vma_suitable_order() check failed in the collapse
process). However, this still does not align with the shmem sysfs
configuration, fix it.

mm/huge_memory: don't mark refcounted folios special in vmf_insert_folio_pud()
Marking PUDs that map a "normal" refcounted folios as special is against
our rules documented for vm_normal_page(). normal (refcounted) folios
shall never have the page table mapping marked as special.
Fortunately, there are not that many pud_special() check that can be
mislead and are right now rather harmless: e.g., none so far bases
decisions whether to grab a folio reference on that decision.
Well, and GUP-fast will fallback to GUP-slow. All in all, so far no big
implications as it seems.
Getting this right will get more important as we introduce
folio_normal_page_pud() and start using it in more place where we
currently special-case based on other VMA flags.
Fix it just like we fixed vmf_insert_folio_pmd().
Add folio_mk_pud() to mimic what we do with folio_mk_pmd().

mm/huge_memory: don't mark refcounted folios special in vmf_insert_folio_pmd()
Marking PMDs that map a "normal" refcounted folios as special is against
our rules documented for vm_normal_page(): normal (refcounted) folios
shall never have the page table mapping marked as special.
Fortunately, there are not that many pmd_special() check that can be
mislead, and most vm_normal_page_pmd()/vm_normal_folio_pmd() users that
would get this wrong right now are rather harmless: e.g., none so far
bases decisions whether to grab a folio reference on that decision.
Well, and GUP-fast will fallback to GUP-slow. All in all, so far no big
implications as it seems.
Getting this right will get more important as we use
folio_normal_page_pmd() in more places.
Fix it by teaching insert_pfn_pmd() to properly handle folios and pfns --
moving refcount/mapcount/etc handling in there, renaming it to
insert_pmd(), and distinguishing between both cases using a new simple
"struct folio_or_pfn" structure.
Use folio_mk_pmd() to create a pmd for a folio cleanly.

mm/huge_memory: don't ignore queried cachemode in vmf_insert_pfn_pud()
Patch series "mm/huge_memory: vmf_insert_folio_*() and
vmf_insert_pfn_pud() fixes", v3.
While working on improving vm_normal_page() and friends, I stumbled over
this issues: refcounted "normal" folios must not be marked using
pmd_special() / pud_special(). Otherwise, we're effectively telling the
system that these folios are no "normal", violating the rules we
documented for vm_normal_page().
Fortunately, there are not many pmd_special()/pud_special() users yet. So
far there doesn't seem to be serious damage.
Tested using the ndctl tests ("ndctl:dax" suite).
This patch (of 3):
We set up the cache mode but ... don't forward the updated pgprot to
insert_pfn_pud().
Only a problem on x86-64 PAT when mapping PFNs using PUDs that require a
special cachemode.
Fix it by using the proper pgprot where the cachemode was setup.
It is unclear in which configurations we would get the cachemode wrong:
through vfio seems possible. Getting cachemodes wrong is usually ...
bad. As the fix is easy, let's backport it to stable.
Identified by code inspection.

mm: convert track_pfn_insert() to pfnmap_setup_cachemode*()
... by factoring it out from track_pfn_remap() into pfnmap_setup_cachemode() and provide pfnmap_setup_cachemode_pfn() as a replacement for track_pfn_insert(). For PMDs/PUDs, we keep checking a single pfn only. Add some documentation, and also document why it is valid to not check the whole pfn range. We'll reuse pfnmap_setup_cachemode() from core MM next.

mm/huge_memory: adjust try_to_migrate_one() and split_huge_pmd_locked()
Patch series "Clean up split_huge_pmd_locked() and remove unnecessary folio pointers", v2. The patch series enhances the folio verification by leveraging the existing page_vma_mapped_walk() mechanism and removing redundant folio pointer passing. This patch (of 2): split_huge_pmd_locked() currently performs redundant checks for migration entries and folio validation that are already handled by the page_vma_mapped_walk mechanism in try_to_migrate_one. Specifically, page_vma_mapped_walk already ensures that: - The folio is properly mapped in the given VMA area - pmd_trans_huge, pmd_devmap, and migration entry validation are performed To leverage page_vma_mapped_walk's work, moving TTU_SPLIT_HUGE_PMD handling to the while loop checking and removing these duplicate checks from split_huge_pmd_locked.

mm: convert free_page_and_swap_cache() to free_folio_and_swap_cache()
free_page_and_swap_cache() takes a struct page pointer as input parameter, but it will immediately convert it to folio and all operations following within use folio instead of page. It makes more sense to pass in folio directly. Convert free_page_and_swap_cache() to free_folio_and_swap_cache() to consume folio directly.

mm: huge_memory: add folio_mark_accessed() when zapping file THP
When investigating performance issues during file folio unmap, I noticed some behavioral differences in handling non-PMD-sized folios and PMD-sized folios. For non-PMD-sized file folios, it will call folio_mark_accessed() to mark the folio as having seen activity, but this is not done for PMD-sized folios. This might not cause obvious issues, but a potential problem could be that, it might lead to reclaim of hot file folios under memory pressure, as quoted from Johannes: : Sometimes file contents are only accessed through relatively short-lived : mappings. But they can nevertheless be accessed a lot and be hot. It's : important to not lose that information on unmap, and end up kicking out a : frequently used cache page. Therefore, we should also add folio_mark_accessed() for PMD-sized file folios when unmapping.
