With the advent of various new memory types, some machines will have
multiple types of memory, e.g. DRAM and PMEM (persistent memory). The
memory subsystem of these machines can be called memory tiering system,
because the performance of the different types of memory are usually
different.
In such system, because of the memory accessing pattern changing etc,
some pages in the slow memory may become hot globally. So in this
patch, the NUMA balancing mechanism is enhanced to optimize the page
placement among the different memory types according to hot/cold
dynamically.
In a typical memory tiering system, there are CPUs, fast memory and slow
memory in each physical NUMA node. The CPUs and the fast memory will be
put in one logical node (called fast memory node), while the slow memory
will be put in another (faked) logical node (called slow memory node).
That is, the fast memory is regarded as local while the slow memory is
regarded as remote. So it's possible for the recently accessed pages in
the slow memory node to be promoted to the fast memory node via the
existing NUMA balancing mechanism.
The original NUMA balancing mechanism will stop to migrate pages if the
free memory of the target node becomes below the high watermark. This
is a reasonable policy if there's only one memory type. But this makes
the original NUMA balancing mechanism almost do not work to optimize
page placement among different memory types. Details are as follows.
It's the common cases that the working-set size of the workload is
larger than the size of the fast memory nodes. Otherwise, it's
unnecessary to use the slow memory at all. So, there are almost always
no enough free pages in the fast memory nodes, so that the globally hot
pages in the slow memory node cannot be promoted to the fast memory
node. To solve the issue, we have 2 choices as follows,
a. Ignore the free pages watermark checking when promoting hot pages
from the slow memory node to the fast memory node. This will
create some memory pressure in the fast memory node, thus trigger
the memory reclaiming. So that, the cold pages in the fast memory
node will be demoted to the slow memory node.
b. Define a new watermark called wmark_promo which is higher than
wmark_high, and have kswapd reclaiming pages until free pages reach
such watermark. The scenario is as follows: when we want to promote
hot-pages from a slow memory to a fast memory, but fast memory's free
pages would go lower than high watermark with such promotion, we wake
up kswapd with wmark_promo watermark in order to demote cold pages and
free us up some space. So, next time we want to promote hot-pages we
might have a chance of doing so.
The choice "a" may create high memory pressure in the fast memory node.
If the memory pressure of the workload is high, the memory pressure
may become so high that the memory allocation latency of the workload
is influenced, e.g. the direct reclaiming may be triggered.
The choice "b" works much better at this aspect. If the memory
pressure of the workload is high, the hot pages promotion will stop
earlier because its allocation watermark is higher than that of the
normal memory allocation. So in this patch, choice "b" is implemented.
A new zone watermark (WMARK_PROMO) is added. Which is larger than the
high watermark and can be controlled via watermark_scale_factor.
In addition to the original page placement optimization among sockets,
the NUMA balancing mechanism is extended to be used to optimize page
placement according to hot/cold among different memory types. So the
sysctl user space interface (numa_balancing) is extended in a backward
compatible way as follow, so that the users can enable/disable these
functionality individually.
The sysctl is converted from a Boolean value to a bits field. The
definition of the flags is,
- 0: NUMA_BALANCING_DISABLED
- 1: NUMA_BALANCING_NORMAL
- 2: NUMA_BALANCING_MEMORY_TIERING
We have tested the patch with the pmbench memory accessing benchmark
with the 80:20 read/write ratio and the Gauss access address
distribution on a 2 socket Intel server with Optane DC Persistent
Memory Model. The test results shows that the pmbench score can
improve up to 95.9%.

Patch series "Free the 2nd vmemmap page associated with each HugeTLB
page", v7.
This series can minimize the overhead of struct page for 2MB HugeTLB
pages significantly. It further reduces the overhead of struct page by
12.5% for a 2MB HugeTLB compared to the previous approach, which means
2GB per 1TB HugeTLB. It is a nice gain. Comments and reviews are
welcome. Thanks.
The main implementation and details can refer to the commit log of patch
1. In this series, I have changed the following four helpers, the
following table shows the impact of the overhead of those helpers.
+------------------+-----------------------+
| APIs | head page | tail page |
+------------------+-----------+-----------+
| PageHead() | Y | N |
+------------------+-----------+-----------+
| PageTail() | Y | N |
+------------------+-----------+-----------+
| PageCompound() | N | N |
+------------------+-----------+-----------+
| compound_head() | Y | N |
+------------------+-----------+-----------+
Y: Overhead is increased.
N: Overhead is _NOT_ increased.
It shows that the overhead of those helpers on a tail page don't change
between "hugetlb_free_vmemmap=on" and "hugetlb_free_vmemmap=off". But the
overhead on a head page will be increased when "hugetlb_free_vmemmap=on"
(except PageCompound()). So I believe that Matthew Wilcox's folio series
will help with this.
The users of PageHead() and PageTail() are much less than compound_head()
and most users of PageTail() are VM_BUG_ON(), so I have done some tests
about the overhead of compound_head() on head pages.
I have tested the overhead of calling compound_head() on a head page,
which is 2.11ns (Measure the call time of 10 million times
compound_head(), and then average).
For a head page whose address is not aligned with PAGE_SIZE or a
non-compound page, the overhead of compound_head() is 2.54ns which is
increased by 20%. For a head page whose address is aligned with
PAGE_SIZE, the overhead of compound_head() is 2.97ns which is increased by
40%. Most pages are the former. I do not think the overhead is
significant since the overhead of compound_head() itself is low.
This patch (of 5):
This patch minimizes the overhead of struct page for 2MB HugeTLB pages
significantly. It further reduces the overhead of struct page by 12.5%
for a 2MB HugeTLB compared to the previous approach, which means 2GB per
1TB HugeTLB (2MB type).
After the feature of "Free sonme vmemmap pages of HugeTLB page" is
enabled, the mapping of the vmemmap addresses associated with a 2MB
HugeTLB page becomes the figure below.
HugeTLB struct pages(8 pages) page frame(8 pages)
+-----------+ ---virt_to_page---> +-----------+ mapping to +-----------+---> PG_head
| | | 0 | -------------> | 0 |
| | +-----------+ +-----------+
| | | 1 | -------------> | 1 |
| | +-----------+ +-----------+
| | | 2 | ----------------^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^
| | +-----------+ | | | | |
| | | 3 | ------------------+ | | | |
| | +-----------+ | | | |
| | | 4 | --------------------+ | | |
| 2MB | +-----------+ | | |
| | | 5 | ----------------------+ | |
| | +-----------+ | |
| | | 6 | ------------------------+ |
| | +-----------+ |
| | | 7 | --------------------------+
| | +-----------+
| |
| |
| |
+-----------+
As we can see, the 2nd vmemmap page frame (indexed by 1) is reused and
remaped. However, the 2nd vmemmap page frame is also can be freed to
the buddy allocator, then we can change the mapping from the figure
above to the figure below.
HugeTLB struct pages(8 pages) page frame(8 pages)
+-----------+ ---virt_to_page---> +-----------+ mapping to +-----------+---> PG_head
| | | 0 | -------------> | 0 |
| | +-----------+ +-----------+
| | | 1 | ---------------^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^
| | +-----------+ | | | | | |
| | | 2 | -----------------+ | | | | |

| | | 5 | -----------------------+ | |
| | +-----------+ | |
| | | 6 | -------------------------+ |
| | +-----------+ |
| | | 7 | ---------------------------+
| | +-----------+
| |
| |
| |
+-----------+
After we do this, all tail vmemmap pages (1-7) are mapped to the head
vmemmap page frame (0). In other words, there are more than one page
struct with PG_head associated with each HugeTLB page. We __know__ that
there is only one head page struct, the tail page structs with PG_head are
fake head page structs. We need an approach to distinguish between those
two different types of page structs so that compound_head(), PageHead()
and PageTail() can work properly if the parameter is the tail page struct
but with PG_head.
The following code snippet describes how to distinguish between real and
fake head page struct.
if (test_bit(PG_head, &page->flags)) {
unsigned long head = READ_ONCE(page[1].compound_head);
if (head & 1) {
if (head == (unsigned long)page + 1)
==> head page struct
else
==> tail page struct
} else
==> head page struct
}
We can safely access the field of the @page[1] with PG_head because the
@page is a compound page composed with at least two contiguous pages.

During the integration of PREEMPT_RT support, the code flow around
memcg_check_events() resulted in `twisted code'. Moving the code around
and avoiding then would then lead to an additional local-irq-save
section within memcg_check_events(). While looking better, it adds a
local-irq-save section to code flow which is usually within an
local-irq-off block on non-PREEMPT_RT configurations.
The threshold event handler is a deprecated memcg v1 feature. Instead
of trying to get it to work under PREEMPT_RT just disable it. There
should be no users on PREEMPT_RT. From that perspective it makes even
less sense to get it to work under PREEMPT_RT while having zero users.
Make memory.soft_limit_in_bytes and cgroup.event_control return
-EOPNOTSUPP on PREEMPT_RT. Make an empty memcg_check_events() and
memcg_write_event_control() which return only -EOPNOTSUPP on PREEMPT_RT.
Document that the two knobs are disabled on PREEMPT_RT.

Currently memcg stats show several types of kernel memory: kernel stack,
page tables, sock, vmalloc, and slab. However, there are other
allocations with __GFP_ACCOUNT (or supersets such as GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT)
that are not accounted in any of those stats, a few examples are:
- various kvm allocations (e.g. allocated pages to create vcpus)
- io_uring
- tmp_page in pipes during pipe_write()
- bpf ringbuffers
- unix sockets
Keeping track of the total kernel memory is essential for the ease of
migration from cgroup v1 to v2 as there are large discrepancies between
v1's kmem.usage_in_bytes and the sum of the available kernel memory
stats in v2. Adding separate memcg stats for all __GFP_ACCOUNT kernel
allocations is an impractical maintenance burden as there a lot of those
all over the kernel code, with more use cases likely to show up in the
future.
Therefore, add a "kernel" memcg stat that is analogous to kmem page
counter, with added benefits such as using rstat infrastructure which
aggregates stats more efficiently. Additionally, this provides a
lighter alternative in case the legacy kmem is deprecated in the future

Pull random number generator updates from Jason Donenfeld:
"There have been a few important changes to the RNG's crypto, but the
intent for 5.18 has been to shore up the existing design as much as
possible with modern cryptographic functions and proven constructions,
rather than actually changing up anything fundamental to the RNG's
design.
So it's still the same old RNG at its core as before: it still counts
entropy bits, and collects from the various sources with the same
heuristics as before, and so forth. However, the cryptographic
algorithms that transform that entropic data into safe random numbers
have been modernized.
Just as important, if not more, is that the code has been cleaned up
and re-documented. As one of the first drivers in Linux, going back to
1.3.30, its general style and organization was showing its age and
becoming both a maintenance burden and an auditability impediment.
Hopefully this provides a more solid foundation to build on for the
future. I encourage you to open up the file in full, and maybe you'll
remark, "oh, that's what it's doing," and enjoy reading it. That, at
least, is the eventual goal, which this pull begins working toward.
Here's a summary of the various patches in this pull:
- /dev/urandom and /dev/random now do the same thing, per the patch
we discussed on the list. I think this is worth trying out. If it
does appear problematic, I've made sure to keep it standalone and
revertible without any conflicts.
- Fixes and cleanups for numerous integer type problems, locking
issues, and general code quality concerns.
- The input pool's LFSR has been replaced with a cryptographically
secure hash function, which has security and performance benefits
alike, and consequently allows us to count entropy bits linearly.
- The pre-init injection now uses a real hash function too, instead
of an LFSR or vanilla xor.
- The interrupt handler's fast_mix() function now uses one round of
SipHash, rather than the fake crypto that was there before.
- All additions of RDRAND and RDSEED now go through the input pool's
hash function, in part to mitigate ridiculous hypothetical CPU
backdoors, but more so to have a consistent interface for ingesting
entropy that's easy to analyze, making everything happen one way,
instead of a potpourri of different ways.
- The crng now works on per-cpu data, while also being in accordance
with the actual "fast key erasure RNG" design. This allows us to
fix several boot-time race complications associated with the prior
dynamically allocated model, eliminates much locking, and makes our
backtrack protection more robust.
- Batched entropy now erases doled out values so that it's backtrack
resistant.
- Working closely with Sebastian, the interrupt handler no longer
needs to take any locks at all, as we punt the
synchronized/expensive operations to a workqueue. This is
especially nice for PREEMPT_RT, where taking spinlocks in irq
context is problematic. It also makes the handler faster for the
rest of us.
- Also working with Sebastian, we now do the right thing on CPU
hotplug, so that we don't use stale entropy or fail to accumulate
new entropy when CPUs come back online.
- We handle virtual machines that fork / clone / snapshot, using the
"vmgenid" ACPI specification for retrieving a unique new RNG seed,
which we can use to also make WireGuard (and in the future, other
things) safe across VM forks.
- Around boot time, we now try to reseed more often if enough entropy
is available, before settling on the usual 5 minute schedule.
- Last, but certainly not least, the documentation in the file has
been updated considerably"

Add a section with a few rules of thumb about how
quickly developers should address regressions to
Documentation/process/handling-regressions.rst; additionally,
add a short paragraph about this to the companion document
Documentation/admin-guide/reporting-regressions.rst as well.
The rules of thumb were written after studying the quotes from Linus
found in handling-regressions.rst and especially influenced by
statements like "Users are literally the _only_ thing that matters" and
"without users, your program is not a program, it's a pointless piece of
code that you might as well throw away". The author interpreted those in
perspective to how the various Linux kernel series are maintained
currently and what those practices might mean for users running into a
regression on a small or big kernel update.
That for example lead to the paragraph starting with "Aim to get fixes
for regressions mainlined within one week after identifying the culprit,
if the regression was introduced in a stable/longterm release or the
devel cycle for the latest mainline release". Some might see this as
pretty high bar, but on the other hand something like that is needed to
not leave users out in the cold for too long -- which can quickly happen
when updating to the latest stable series, as the previous one is
normally stamped "End of Life" about three or four weeks after a new
mainline release. This makes a lot of users switch during this
timeframe. Any of them thus risk running into regressions not promptly
fixed; even worse, once the previous stable series is EOLed for real,
users that face a regression might be left with only three options:
(1) continue running an outdated and thus potentially insecure kernel
version from an abandoned stable series
(2) run the kernel with the regression
(3) downgrade to an earlier longterm series still supported
This is better avoided, as (1) puts users and their data in danger, (2)
will only be possible if it's a minor regression that doesn't interfere
with booting or serious usage, and (3) might be regression itself or
impossible on the particular machine, as the users might require drivers
or features only introduced after the latest longterm series branched
of.
In the end this lead to the aforementioned "Aim to fix regression within
one week" part. It's also the reason for the "Try to resolve any
regressions introduced in the current development cycle before its
end.".

Create two documents explaining various aspects around regression
handling and tracking; one is aimed at users, the other targets

The texts among others describes the first rule of Linux kernel
development and what it means in practice. They also explain what a
regression actually is and how to report one properly.
Both texts additionally provide a brief introduction to the bot the
kernel's regression tracker uses to facilitate the work, but mention the
use is optional.
To sum things up, provide a few quotes from Linus in the document for

Rename the imx7-mipi-csis.c driver to remove the reference to i.MX7.
The driver is for an IP core found on i.MX7 and i.MX8 SoC, so do not
specify a SoC version number in the driver name.
Remove the references to the i.MX7 SoC in the driver symbols and expand
the driver's header with more information about the IP core the driver
controls.
Also rename the associated bindings documentation.

With tools like kbench9000 giving more finegrained responses, and this
basically never having been used ever since it was initially added,
let's just get rid of this. There *is* still work to be done on the
interrupt handler, but this really isn't the way it's being developed.

Now that POOL_BITS == POOL_MIN_BITS, we must unconditionally wake up
entropy writers after every extraction. Therefore there's no point of
write_wakeup_threshold, so we can move it to the dustbin of unused
compatibility sysctls. While we're at it, we can fix a small comparison
where we were waking up after <= min rather than < min.

Tell about 'console=null|""' and how to use it.
It can be helpful to set (enable) CONFIG_NULL_TTY so that the ttynull
driver is available. This avoids problems with stdin/stdout/stderr of
the init process. Howevere, CONFIG_NULL_TTY cannot be enabled by default
because it can be used by mistake, see the commit a91bd6223e ("Revert
"init/console: Use ttynull as a fallback when there is no console"").

Remove mmu_audit.c and all its collateral, the auditing code has suffered
severe bitrot, ironically partly due to shadow paging being more stable
and thus not benefiting as much from auditing, but mostly due to TDP
supplanting shadow paging for non-nested guests and shadowing of nested
TDP not heavily stressing the logic that is being audited.

The vimc driver is used for testing purpose, and some test use cases
involve sharing buffers with a consumer device. Consumers often require
DMA contiguous memory, which vimc doesn't currently support. This leads
in the best case to usage of bounce buffers, which is very slow, and in
the worst case in a complete failure.
Add support for the dma-contig allocator in vimc to support those use
cases properly. The allocator is selected through a new "allocator"
module parameter, which defaults to vmalloc.

When using KVM_DIRTY_LOG_INITIALLY_SET, huge pages are not
write-protected when dirty logging is enabled on the memslot. Instead
they are write-protected once userspace invokes KVM_CLEAR_DIRTY_LOG for
the first time and only for the specific sub-region being cleared.
Enhance KVM_CLEAR_DIRTY_LOG to also try to split huge pages prior to
write-protecting to avoid causing write-protection faults on vCPU
threads. This also allows userspace to smear the cost of huge page
splitting across multiple ioctls, rather than splitting the entire
memslot as is the case when initially-all-set is not used.

When dirty logging is enabled without initially-all-set, try to split
all huge pages in the memslot down to 4KB pages so that vCPUs do not
have to take expensive write-protection faults to split huge pages.
Eager page splitting is best-effort only. This commit only adds the
support for the TDP MMU, and even there splitting may fail due to out
of memory conditions. Failures to split a huge page is fine from a
correctness standpoint because KVM will always follow up splitting by
write-protecting any remaining huge pages.
Eager page splitting moves the cost of splitting huge pages off of the
vCPU threads and onto the thread enabling dirty logging on the memslot.
This is useful because:
1. Splitting on the vCPU thread interrupts vCPUs execution and is
disruptive to customers whereas splitting on VM ioctl threads can
run in parallel with vCPU execution.
2. Splitting all huge pages at once is more efficient because it does
not require performing VM-exit handling or walking the page table for
every 4KiB page in the memslot, and greatly reduces the amount of
contention on the mmu_lock.
For example, when running dirty_log_perf_test with 96 virtual CPUs, 1GiB
per vCPU, and 1GiB HugeTLB memory, the time it takes vCPUs to write to
all of their memory after dirty logging is enabled decreased by 95% from
2.94s to 0.14s.
Eager Page Splitting is over 100x more efficient than the current
implementation of splitting on fault under the read lock. For example,
taking the same workload as above, Eager Page Splitting reduced the CPU
required to split all huge pages from ~270 CPU-seconds ((2.94s - 0.14s)
* 96 vCPU threads) to only 1.55 CPU-seconds.
Eager page splitting does increase the amount of time it takes to enable
dirty logging since it has split all huge pages. For example, the time
it took to enable dirty logging in the 96GiB region of the
aforementioned test increased from 0.001s to 1.55s.
