Merge tag 'mm-stable-2023-04-27-15-30' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm
Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- Nick Piggin's "shoot lazy tlbs" series, to improve the peformance of
switching from a user process to a kernel thread.
- More folio conversions from Kefeng Wang, Zhang Peng and Pankaj
Raghav.
- zsmalloc performance improvements from Sergey Senozhatsky.
- Yue Zhao has found and fixed some data race issues around the
alteration of memcg userspace tunables.
- VFS rationalizations from Christoph Hellwig:
- removal of most of the callers of write_one_page()
- make __filemap_get_folio()'s return value more useful
- Luis Chamberlain has changed tmpfs so it no longer requires swap
backing. Use `mount -o noswap'.
- Qi Zheng has made the slab shrinkers operate locklessly, providing
some scalability benefits.
- Keith Busch has improved dmapool's performance, making part of its
operations O(1) rather than O(n).
- Peter Xu adds the UFFD_FEATURE_WP_UNPOPULATED feature to userfaultd,
permitting userspace to wr-protect anon memory unpopulated ptes.
- Kirill Shutemov has changed MAX_ORDER's meaning to be inclusive
rather than exclusive, and has fixed a bunch of errors which were
caused by its unintuitive meaning.
- Axel Rasmussen give userfaultfd the UFFDIO_CONTINUE_MODE_WP feature,
which causes minor faults to install a write-protected pte.
- Vlastimil Babka has done some maintenance work on vma_merge():
cleanups to the kernel code and improvements to our userspace test
harness.
- Cleanups to do_fault_around() by Lorenzo Stoakes.
- Mike Rapoport has moved a lot of initialization code out of various
mm/ files and into mm/mm_init.c.
- Lorenzo Stoakes removd vmf_insert_mixed_prot(), which was added for
DRM, but DRM doesn't use it any more.
- Lorenzo has also coverted read_kcore() and vread() to use iterators
and has thereby removed the use of bounce buffers in some cases.
- Lorenzo has also contributed further cleanups of vma_merge().
- Chaitanya Prakash provides some fixes to the mmap selftesting code.
- Matthew Wilcox changes xfs and afs so they no longer take sleeping
locks in ->map_page(), a step towards RCUification of pagefaults.
- Suren Baghdasaryan has improved mmap_lock scalability by switching to
per-VMA locking.
- Frederic Weisbecker has reworked the percpu cache draining so that it
no longer causes latency glitches on cpu isolated workloads.
- Mike Rapoport cleans up and corrects the ARCH_FORCE_MAX_ORDER Kconfig
logic.
- Liu Shixin has changed zswap's initialization so we no longer waste a
chunk of memory if zswap is not being used.
- Yosry Ahmed has improved the performance of memcg statistics
flushing.
- David Stevens has fixed several issues involving khugepaged,
userfaultfd and shmem.
- Christoph Hellwig has provided some cleanup work to zram's IO-related
code paths.
- David Hildenbrand has fixed up some issues in the selftest code's
testing of our pte state changing.
- Pankaj Raghav has made page_endio() unneeded and has removed it.
- Peter Xu contributed some rationalizations of the userfaultfd
selftests.
- Yosry Ahmed has fixed an issue around memcg's page recalim
accounting.
- Chaitanya Prakash has fixed some arm-related issues in the
selftests/mm code.
- Longlong Xia has improved the way in which KSM handles hwpoisoned
pages.
- Peter Xu fixes a few issues with uffd-wp at fork() time.
- Stefan Roesch has changed KSM so that it may now be used on a
per-process and per-cgroup basis.
