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 -&gt;map_page(), a step towards RCUification of pagefaults.

 - Suren Baghdasaryan has improved mmap_lock scalability by switching to
   per-VMA locking.

<content type='text'>
Some architectures can have their hugetlb pages down at the lowest PTE
level: their huge_pte_alloc() using pte_alloc_map(), but without any
following pte_unmap().  Since none of these arches uses CONFIG_HIGHPTE,
this is not seen as a problem at present; but would become a problem if
forthcoming changes were to add an rcu_read_lock() into pte_offset_map(),
with the rcu_read_unlock() expected in pte_unmap().

Similarly in their huge_pte_offset(): pte_offset_kernel() is good enough
for that, but it's probably less confusing if we define pte_offset_huge()
along with pte_alloc_huge().  Only define them without CONFIG_HIGHPTE: so
there would be a build error to signal if ever more work is needed.

For ease of development, define these now for 6.4-rc1, ahead of any use:
then architectures can integrate patches using them, independent from mm.

<title>mm: userfaultfd: combine 'mode' and 'wp_copy' arguments</title>

<id>d9712937037e0ce887920f321429826e9dbfd960</id>
<content type='text'>
Many userfaultfd ioctl functions take both a 'mode' and a 'wp_copy'
argument.  In future commits we plan to plumb the flags through to more
places, so we'd be proliferating the very long argument list even further.

Let's take the time to simplify the argument list.  Combine the two
arguments into one - and generalize, so when we add more flags in the
future, it doesn't imply more function arguments.

Since the modes (copy, zeropage, continue) are mutually exclusive, store
them as an integer value (0, 1, 2) in the low bits.  Place combine-able
flag bits in the high bits.

This is quite similar to an earlier patch proposed by Nadav Amit
("userfaultfd: introduce uffd_flags" [1]).  The main difference is that
patch only handled flags, whereas this patch *also* combines the "mode"
argument into the same type to shorten the argument list.

Quite a few userfaultfd functions took both mm and vma pointers as
arguments.  Since the mm is trivially accessible via vma-&gt;vm_mm, there's
no reason to pass both; it just needlessly extends the already long
argument list.

Get rid of the mm pointer, where possible, to shorten the argument list.

Patch series "mm: userfaultfd: refactor and add UFFDIO_CONTINUE_MODE_WP",
v5.

- Commits 1-3 refactor userfaultfd ioctl code without behavior changes, with the
  main goal of improving consistency and reducing the number of function args.

- Commit 4 adds UFFDIO_CONTINUE_MODE_WP.


This patch (of 4):

The basic problem is, over time we've added new userfaultfd ioctls, and
we've refactored the code so functions which used to handle only one case
are now re-used to deal with several cases.  While this happened, we
didn't bother to rename the functions.

Similarly, as we added new functions, we cargo-culted pieces of the
now-inconsistent naming scheme, so those functions too ended up with names
that don't make a lot of sense.

A key point here is, "copy" in most userfaultfd code refers specifically
to UFFDIO_COPY, where we allocate a new page and copy its contents from
userspace.  There are many functions with "copy" in the name that don't
actually do this (at least in some cases).

So, rename things into a consistent scheme.  The high level idea is that
the call stack for userfaultfd ioctls becomes:

userfaultfd_ioctl
  -&gt; userfaultfd_(particular ioctl)
    -&gt; mfill_atomic_(particular kind of fill operation)
      -&gt; mfill_atomic    /* loops over pages in range */
        -&gt; mfill_atomic_pte    /* deals with single pages */
          -&gt; mfill_atomic_pte_(particular kind of fill operation)
            -&gt; mfill_atomic_install_pte

There are of course some special cases (shmem, hugetlb), but this is the
general structure which all function names now adhere to.

MAX_ORDER currently defined as number of orders page allocator supports:
user can ask buddy allocator for page order between 0 and MAX_ORDER-1.

This definition is counter-intuitive and lead to number of bugs all over
the kernel.

Change the definition of MAX_ORDER to be inclusive: the range of orders
user can ask from buddy allocator is 0..MAX_ORDER now.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:

 - Daniel Verkamp has contributed a memfd series ("mm/memfd: add
   F_SEAL_EXEC") which permits the setting of the memfd execute bit at
   memfd creation time, with the option of sealing the state of the X
   bit.

 - Peter Xu adds a patch series ("mm/hugetlb: Make huge_pte_offset()
   thread-safe for pmd unshare") which addresses a rare race condition
   related to PMD unsharing.

   actions. SeongJae has also done some DAMON cleanup work.

 - Kairui Song adds a series ("Clean up and fixes for swap").

 - Vernon Yang contributed the series "Clean up and refinement for maple
   tree".

   regression in compaction via his series "Fix excessive CPU usage
   during compaction".

 - Christoph Hellwig does some vmalloc maintenance work in the series
   "cleanup vfree and vunmap".

 - Christoph Hellwig has removed block_device_operations.rw_page() in

   of the kernel in the series "Simplify the external interface for
   GUP".

 - SeongJae Park wishes to migrate people from DAMON's debugfs interface
   over to its sysfs interface. To support this, we'll temporarily be
   printing warnings when people use the debugfs interface. See the
   series "mm/damon: deprecate DAMON debugfs interface".

 - Andrey Konovalov provided the accurately named "lib/stackdepot: fixes
   and clean-ups" series.

<content type='text'>
Now the isolate_hugetlb() only returns 0 or -EBUSY, and most users did not
care about the negative value, thus we can convert the isolate_hugetlb()
to return a boolean value to make code more clear when checking the
hugetlb isolation state.  Moreover converts 2 users which will consider
the negative value returned by isolate_hugetlb().

No functional changes intended.

Now the isolate_hugetlb() only returns 0 or -EBUSY, and most users did not
care about the negative value, thus we can convert the isolate_hugetlb()
to return a boolean value to make code more clear when checking the
hugetlb isolation state.  Moreover converts 2 users which will consider
the negative value returned by isolate_hugetlb().

No functional changes intended.
