Patch series "MM changes to improve swap-over-NFS support".
Assorted improvements for swap-via-filesystem.
This is a resend of these patches, rebased on current HEAD. The only
substantial changes is that swap_dirty_folio has replaced
swap_set_page_dirty.
Currently swap-via-fs (SWP_FS_OPS) doesn't work for any filesystem. It
has previously worked for NFS but that broke a few releases back. This
series changes to use a new ->swap_rw rather than ->readpage and
->direct_IO. It also makes other improvements.
There is a companion series already in linux-next which fixes various
issues with NFS. Once both series land, a final patch is needed which
changes NFS over to use ->swap_rw.
This patch (of 10):
Many functions declared in include/linux/swap.h are only used within mm/
Create a new "mm/swap.h" and move some of these declarations there.
Remove the redundant 'extern' from the function declarations.
[akpm@linux-foundation.org: mm/memory-failure.c needs mm/swap.h]

So far bio is marked as REQ_POLLED if RWF_HIPRI/IOCB_HIPRI is passed
from userspace sync io interface, then block layer tries to poll until
the bio is completed. But the current implementation calls
blk_io_schedule() if bio_poll() returns 0, and this way causes io hang or
timeout easily.
But looks no one reports this kind of issue, which should have been
triggered in normal io poll sanity test or blktests block/007 as
observed by Changhui, that means it is very likely that no one uses it
or no one cares it.
Also after io_uring is invented, io poll for sync dio becomes legacy
interface.
So ignore RWF_HIPRI hint for sync dio.

Two processes under CLONE_VM cloning, user process can be corrupted by
seeing zeroed page unexpectedly.
CPU A CPU B
do_swap_page do_swap_page
SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO path SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO path
swap_readpage valid data
swap_slot_free_notify
delete zram entry
swap_readpage zeroed(invalid) data
pte_lock
map the *zero data* to userspace
pte_unlock
pte_lock
if (!pte_same)
goto out_nomap;
pte_unlock
return and next refault will
read zeroed data
The swap_slot_free_notify is bogus for CLONE_VM case since it doesn't
increase the refcount of swap slot at copy_mm so it couldn't catch up
whether it's safe or not to discard data from backing device. In the
case, only the lock it could rely on to synchronize swap slot freeing is
page table lock. Thus, this patch gets rid of the swap_slot_free_notify
function. With this patch, CPU A will see correct data.
CPU A CPU B
do_swap_page do_swap_page
SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO path SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO path
swap_readpage original data
pte_lock
map the original data
swap_free
swap_range_free
bd_disk->fops->swap_slot_free_notify
swap_readpage read zeroed data
pte_unlock
pte_lock
if (!pte_same)
goto out_nomap;
pte_unlock
return
on next refault will see mapped data by CPU B
The concern of the patch would increase memory consumption since it
could keep wasted memory with compressed form in zram as well as
uncompressed form in address space. However, most of cases of zram uses
no readahead and do_swap_page is followed by swap_free so it will free
the compressed form from in zram quickly.

Pull filesystem folio updates from Matthew Wilcox:
"Primarily this series converts some of the address_space operations to
take a folio instead of a page.
Notably:
- a_ops->is_partially_uptodate() takes a folio instead of a page and
changes the type of the 'from' and 'count' arguments to make it
obvious they're bytes.
- a_ops->invalidatepage() becomes ->invalidate_folio() and has a
similar type change.
- a_ops->launder_page() becomes ->launder_folio()
- a_ops->set_page_dirty() becomes ->dirty_folio() and adds the
address_space as an argument.

Once upon a time, all swapins counted toward memory pressure[1]. Then
Joonsoo introduced workingset detection for anonymous pages and we gained
the ability to distinguish hot from cold swapins[2][3]. But we failed to
update swap_readpage() accordingly, and now we account partial memory
pressure in the swapin path of cold memory.
Not for all situations - which adds more inconsistency: paths using the
conventional submit_bio() and lock_page() route will not see much pressure
- unless storage itself is heavily congested and the bio submissions
stall. ZRAM and ZSWAP do most of the work directly from swap_readpage()
and will see all swapins reflected as pressure.
IOW, a workload doing cold swapins could see little to no pressure
reported with on-disk swap, but potentially high pressure with a zram or
zswap backend. That confuses any psi-based health monitoring, load
shedding, proactive reclaim, or userspace OOM killing schemes that might
be in place for the workload.
Restore consistency by making all swapin stall accounting conditional on
the page actually being part of the workingset.

This replaces ->set_page_dirty(). It returns a bool instead of an int
and takes the address_space as a parameter instead of expecting the
implementations to retrieve the address_space from the page. This is
particularly important for filesystems which use FS_OPS for swap.

Pass the block_device and operation that we plan to use this bio for to
bio_alloc to optimize the assignment. NULL/0 can be passed, both for the
passthrough case on a raw request_queue and to temporarily avoid
refactoring some nasty code.
Also move the gfp_mask argument after the nr_vecs argument for a much
more logical calling convention matching what most of the kernel does.

Currently delayacct accounts swapin delay only for swapping that cause
blkio. If we use zram for swapping, tools/accounting/getdelays can't
get any SWAP delay.
It's useful to get zram swapin delay information, for example to adjust
compress algorithm or /proc/sys/vm/swappiness.
Reference to PSI, it accounts any kind of swapping by doing its work in
swap_readpage(), no matter whether swapping causes blkio. Let delayacct
do the similar work.

Replace the blk_poll interface that requires the caller to keep a queue
and cookie from the submissions with polling based on the bio.
Polling for the bio itself leads to a few advantages:
- the cookie construction can made entirely private in blk-mq.c
- the caller does not need to remember the request_queue and cookie
separately and thus sidesteps their lifetime issues
- keeping the device and the cookie inside the bio allows to trivially
support polling BIOs remapping by stacking drivers
- a lot of code to propagate the cookie back up the submission path can
be removed entirely.

If there are errors during swap read or write, they can easily fill the
log buffer and remove any previous messages that might be useful for
debugging, especially on systems that rely for logging only on the kernel
ring-buffer.
For example, on a systems using zram as swap, we are more likely to see
any page allocation errors preceding the swap write errors if the alerts
are ratelimited.

Patch series "mm: allow mapping accounted kernel pages to userspace", v6.
Currently a non-slab kernel page which has been charged to a memory cgroup
can't be mapped to userspace. The underlying reason is simple: PageKmemcg
flag is defined as a page type (like buddy, offline, etc), so it takes a
bit from a page->mapped counter. Pages with a type set can't be mapped to
userspace.
But in general the kmemcg flag has nothing to do with mapping to
userspace. It only means that the page has been accounted by the page
allocator, so it has to be properly uncharged on release.
Some bpf maps are mapping the vmalloc-based memory to userspace, and their
memory can't be accounted because of this implementation detail.
This patchset removes this limitation by moving the PageKmemcg flag into
one of the free bits of the page->mem_cgroup pointer. Also it formalizes
accesses to the page->mem_cgroup and page->obj_cgroups using new helpers,
adds several checks and removes a couple of obsolete functions. As the
result the code became more robust with fewer open-coded bit tricks.
This patch (of 4):
Currently there are many open-coded reads of the page->mem_cgroup pointer,
as well as a couple of read helpers, which are barely used.
It creates an obstacle on a way to reuse some bits of the pointer for
storing additional bits of information. In fact, we already do this for
slab pages, where the last bit indicates that a pointer has an attached
vector of objcg pointers instead of a regular memcg pointer.
This commits uses 2 existing helpers and introduces a new helper to
converts all read sides to calls of these helpers:
struct mem_cgroup *page_memcg(struct page *page);
struct mem_cgroup *page_memcg_rcu(struct page *page);
struct mem_cgroup *page_memcg_check(struct page *page);
page_memcg_check() is intended to be used in cases when the page can be a
slab page and have a memcg pointer pointing at objcg vector. It does
check the lowest bit, and if set, returns NULL. page_memcg() contains a
VM_BUG_ON_PAGE() check for the page not being a slab page.
To make sure nobody uses a direct access, struct page's
mem_cgroup/obj_cgroups is converted to unsigned long memcg_data.

SWP_FS is used to make swap_{read,write}page() go through the filesystem,
and it's only used for swap files over NFS for now. Otherwise it will
directly submit IO to blockdev according to swapfile extents reported by
filesystems in advance.
As Matthew pointed out [1], SWP_FS naming is somewhat confusing, so let's
rename to SWP_FS_OPS.

Arm's Memory Tagging Extension (MTE) adds some metadata (tags) to
every physical page, when swapping pages out to disk it is necessary to
save these tags, and later restore them when reading the pages back.
Add some hooks along with dummy implementations to enable the
arch code to handle this.
Three new hooks are added to the swap code:
* arch_prepare_to_swap() and
* arch_swap_invalidate_page() / arch_swap_invalidate_area().
One new hook is added to shmem:
* arch_swap_restore()

swap_readpage() does the sync io for one page, the io is not big,
normally, the io can be finished quickly, but it may take long time or
wait forever in case of io failure or discard.
This patch uses blk_io_schedule() instead of io_schedule() to avoid task
hung and crash (when set /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_panic) when the above
exception occurs.
This is similar to the hung task avoidance in submit_bio_wait(),

Patch series "mm: consolidate definitions of page table accessors", v2.
The low level page table accessors (pXY_index(), pXY_offset()) are
duplicated across all architectures and sometimes more than once. For
instance, we have 31 definition of pgd_offset() for 25 supported
architectures.
Most of these definitions are actually identical and typically it boils
down to, e.g.
static inline unsigned long pmd_index(unsigned long address)
{
return (address >> PMD_SHIFT) & (PTRS_PER_PMD - 1);
}
static inline pmd_t *pmd_offset(pud_t *pud, unsigned long address)
{
return (pmd_t *)pud_page_vaddr(*pud) + pmd_index(address);
}
These definitions can be shared among 90% of the arches provided
XYZ_SHIFT, PTRS_PER_XYZ and xyz_page_vaddr() are defined.
For architectures that really need a custom version there is always
possibility to override the generic version with the usual ifdefs magic.
These patches introduce include/linux/pgtable.h that replaces
include/asm-generic/pgtable.h and add the definitions of the page table
accessors to the new header.
This patch (of 12):
The linux/mm.h header includes <asm/pgtable.h> to allow inlining of the
functions involving page table manipulations, e.g. pte_alloc() and
pmd_alloc(). So, there is no point to explicitly include <asm/pgtable.h>
in the files that include <linux/mm.h>.
The include statements in such cases are remove with a simple loop:
for f in $(git grep -l "include <linux/mm.h>") ; do
sed -i -e '/include <asm\/pgtable.h>/ d' $f
done

By now, bmap() will either return the physical block number related to
the requested file offset or 0 in case of error or the requested offset
maps into a hole.
This patch makes the needed changes to enable bmap() to proper return
errors, using the return value as an error return, and now, a pointer
must be passed to bmap() to be filled with the mapped physical block.
It will change the behavior of bmap() on return:
- negative value in case of error
- zero on success or map fell into a hole
In case of a hole, the *block will be zero too
Since this is a prep patch, by now, the only error return is -EINVAL if
->bmap doesn't exist.

If a block device supports rw_page operation, it doesn't submit bios so
the annotation in submit_bio() for refault stall doesn't work. It
happens with zram in android, especially swap read path which could
consume CPU cycle for decompress. It is also a problem for zswap which
uses frontswap.
Annotate swap_readpage() to account the synchronous IO overhead to
prevent underreport memory pressure.

The following race is observed due to which a processes faulting on a
swap entry, finds the page neither in swapcache nor swap. This causes
zram to give a zero filled page that gets mapped to the process,
resulting in a user space crash later.
Consider parent and child processes Pa and Pb sharing the same swap slot
with swap_count 2. Swap is on zram with SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO set.
Virtual address 'VA' of Pa and Pb points to the shared swap entry.
Pa Pb
fault on VA fault on VA
do_swap_page do_swap_page
lookup_swap_cache fails lookup_swap_cache fails
Pb scheduled out
swapin_readahead (deletes zram entry)
swap_free (makes swap_count 1)
Pb scheduled in
swap_readpage (swap_count == 1)
Takes SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO path
zram enrty absent
zram gives a zero filled page
Fix this by making sure that swap slot is freed only when swap count
drops down to one.

swap_extent is used to map swap page offset to backing device's block
offset. For a continuous block range, one swap_extent is used and all
these swap_extents are managed in a linked list.
These swap_extents are used by map_swap_entry() during swap's read and
write path. To find out the backing device's block offset for a page
offset, the swap_extent list will be traversed linearly, with
curr_swap_extent being used as a cache to speed up the search.
This works well as long as swap_extents are not huge or when the number
of processes that access swap device are few, but when the swap device
has many extents and there are a number of processes accessing the swap
device concurrently, it can be a problem. On one of our servers, the
disk's remaining size is tight:
$df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
... ...
/dev/nvme0n1p1 1.8T 1.3T 504G 72% /home/t4
When creating a 80G swapfile there, there are as many as 84656 swap
extents. The end result is, kernel spends abou 30% time in
map_swap_entry() and swap throughput is only 70MB/s.
As a comparison, when I used smaller sized swapfile, like 4G whose
swap_extent dropped to 2000, swap throughput is back to 400-500MB/s and
map_swap_entry() is about 3%.
One downside of using rbtree for swap_extent is, 'struct rbtree' takes
24 bytes while 'struct list_head' takes 16 bytes, that's 8 bytes more
for each swap_extent. For a swapfile that has 80k swap_extents, that
means 625KiB more memory consumed.
Test:
Since it's not possible to reboot that server, I can not test this patch
diretly there. Instead, I tested it on another server with NVMe disk.
I created a 20G swapfile on an NVMe backed XFS fs. By default, the
filesystem is quite clean and the created swapfile has only 2 extents.
Testing vanilla and this patch shows no obvious performance difference
when swapfile is not fragmented.
To see the patch's effects, I used some tweaks to manually fragment the
swapfile by breaking the extent at 1M boundary. This made the swapfile
have 20K extents.

swap_readpage() sets waiter = bio->bi_private even if synchronous = F,
this means that the caller can get the spurious wakeup after return.
This can be fatal if blk_wake_io_task() does
set_current_state(TASK_RUNNING) after the caller does
set_special_state(), in the worst case the kernel can crash in
do_task_dead().

0-Day test system reported some OOM regressions for several THP
(Transparent Huge Page) swap test cases. These regressions are bisected
to 6861428921b5 ("block: always define BIO_MAX_PAGES as 256"). In the
commit, BIO_MAX_PAGES is set to 256 even when THP swap is enabled. So the
bio_alloc(gfp_flags, 512) in get_swap_bio() may fail when swapping out
THP. That causes the OOM.
As in the patch description of 6861428921b5 ("block: always define
BIO_MAX_PAGES as 256"), THP swap should use multi-page bvec to write THP
to swap space. So the issue is fixed via doing that in get_swap_bio().
BTW: I remember I have checked the THP swap code when 6861428921b5
("block: always define BIO_MAX_PAGES as 256") was merged, and thought the
THP swap code needn't to be changed. But apparently, I was wrong. I
should have done this at that time.

swap_readpage() wants to do polling to bring in pages if asked to, but
it doesn't mark the bio as being polled. Additionally, the looping
around the blk_poll() check isn't correct - if we get a zero return, we
should call io_schedule(), we can't just assume that the bio has
completed. The regular bio->bi_private check should be used for that.

This mostly reverts commit 849a370016a5 ("block: avoid ordered task
state change for polled IO"). It was wrongly claiming that the ordering
wasn't necessary. The memory barrier _is_ necessary.
If something is truly polling and not going to sleep, it's the whole
state setting that is unnecessary, not the memory barrier. Whenever you
set your state to a sleeping state, you absolutely need the memory
barrier.
Note that sometimes the memory barrier can be elsewhere. For example,
the ordering might be provided by an external lock, or by setting the
process state to sleeping before adding yourself to the wait queue list
that is used for waking up (where the wait queue lock itself will
guarantee that any wakeup will correctly see the sleeping state).
But none of those cases were true here.
NOTE! Some of the polling paths may indeed be able to drop the state
setting entirely, at which point the memory barrier also goes away.
(Also note that this doesn't revert the TASK_RUNNING cases: there is no
race between a wakeup and setting the process state to TASK_RUNNING,
since the end result doesn't depend on ordering).

blk_poll() has always kept spinning until it found an IO. This is
fine for SYNC polling, since we need to find one request we have
pending, but in preparation for ASYNC polling it can be beneficial
to just check if we have any entries available or not.
Existing callers are converted to pass in 'spin == true', to retain
the old behavior.

For the core poll helper, the task state setting don't need to imply any
atomics, as it's the current task itself that is being modified and
we're not going to sleep.
For IRQ driven, the wakeup path have the necessary barriers to not need
us using the heavy handed version of the task state setting.

If we're polling for IO on a device that doesn't use interrupts, then
IO completion loop (and wake of task) is done by submitting task itself.
If that is the case, then we don't need to enter the wake_up_process()
function, we can simply mark ourselves as TASK_RUNNING.

Pull block layer fixes from Jens Axboe:
"The biggest part of this pull request is the revert of the blkcg
cleanup series. It had one fix earlier for a stacked device issue, but
another one was reported. Rather than play whack-a-mole with this,
revert the entire series and try again for the next kernel release.
Apart from that, only small fixes/changes.
Summary:
- Indentation fixup for mtip32xx (Colin Ian King)
- The blkcg cleanup series revert (Dennis Zhou)
- Two NVMe fixes. One fixing a regression in the nvme request
initialization in this merge window, causing nvme-fc to not work.
The other is a suspend/resume p2p resource issue (James, Keith)
- Fix sg discard merge, allowing us to merge in cases where we didn't
before (Jianchao Wang)
- Call rq_qos_exit() after the queue is frozen, preventing a hang
(Ming)
- Fix brd queue setup, fixing an oops if we fail setting up all
devices (Ming)"

This reverts a series committed earlier due to null pointer exception
bug report in [1]. It seems there are edge case interactions that I did
not consider and will need some time to understand what causes the
adverse interactions.
The original series can be found in [2] with a follow up series in [3].
