Pull xfs updates from Chandan Babu:
 "New features/functionality:
   - Online repair:
       - Reserve disk space for online repairs
       - Fix misinteraction between the AIL and btree bulkloader because
         of which the bulk load fails to queue a buffer for writeback if
         it happens to be on the AIL list
       - Prevent transaction reservation overflows when reaping blocks
         during online repair
       - Whenever possible, bulkloader now copies multiple records into
         a block
       - Support repairing of
           1. Per-AG free space, inode and refcount btrees
           2. Ondisk inodes
           3. File data and attribute fork mappings
       - Verify the contents of
           1. Inode and data fork of realtime bitmap file
           2. Quota files
   - Introduce MF_MEM_PRE_REMOVE. This will be used to notify tasks
     about a pmem device being removed

  Bug fixes:
   - Fix memory leak of recovered attri intent items
   - Fix UAF during log intent recovery
   - Fix realtime geometry integer overflows
   - Prevent scrub from live locking in xchk_iget
   - Prevent fs shutdown when removing files during low free disk space

     device
   - Prevent incorrect warning from being printed when extending a
     filesystem
   - Fix an off-by-one error in xreap_agextent_binval
   - Serialize access to perag radix tree during deletion operation
   - Fix perag memory leak during growfs
   - Allow allocation of minlen realtime extent when the maximum sized
     realtime free extent is minlen in size

  Cleanups:
   - Remove duplicate boilerplate code spread across functionality
     associated with different log items
   - Cleanup resblks interfaces
   - Pass defer ops pointer to defer helpers instead of an enum
   - Initialize di_crc in xfs_log_dinode to prevent KMSAN warnings
   - Use static_assert() instead of BUILD_BUG_ON_MSG() to validate size
     of structures and structure member offsets. This is done in order
     to be able to share the code with userspace
   - Move XFS documentation under a new directory specific to XFS
   - Do not invoke deferred ops' -&gt;create_done callback if the deferred
     operation does not have an intent item associated with it

hugetlb rmap handling differs quite a lot from "ordinary" rmap code.  For
example, hugetlb currently only supports entire mappings, and treats any
mapping as mapped using a single "logical PTE".  Let's move it out of the
way so we can overhaul our "ordinary" rmap.  implementation/interface.

So let's introduce and use hugetlb_try_dup_anon_rmap() to make all hugetlb
handling use dedicated hugetlb_* rmap functions.

Add sanity checks that we end up with the right folios in the right
functions.

Note that is_device_private_page() does not apply to hugetlb.

Use the KASAN_TAG_KERNEL marco instead of open-coding 0xff in the mm code.
This macro is provided by include/linux/kasan-tags.h, which does not
include any other headers, so it's safe to include it into mm.h without
causing circular include dependencies.

<title>mm: fix VMA heap bounds checking</title>

<content type='text'>
After converting selinux to VMA heap check helper, the gcl triggers an
execheap SELinux denial, which is caused by a changed logic check.

Previously selinux only checked that the VMA range was within the VMA heap
range, and the implementation checks the intersection between the two
ranges, but the corner case (vm_end=start_brk, brk=vm_start) isn't handled
correctly.

Since commit 11250fd12eb8 ("mm: factor out VMA stack and heap checks") was
only a function extraction, it seems that the issue was introduced by
commit 0db0c01b53a1 ("procfs: fix /proc/&lt;pid&gt;/maps heap check").  Let's
fix above corner cases, meanwhile, correct the wrong indentation of the
stack and heap check helpers.

<title>mm: use vmem_altmap code without CONFIG_ZONE_DEVICE</title>

<content type='text'>
vmem_altmap_free() and vmem_altmap_offset() could be utlized without
CONFIG_ZONE_DEVICE enabled.  For example,
mm/memory_hotplug.c:__add_pages() relies on that.  The altmap is no longer
restricted to ZONE_DEVICE handling, but instead depends on
CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP.

When CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP is disabled, these functions are defined as
inline stubs, ensuring compatibility with configurations that do not use
sparsemem vmemmap.  Without it, lkp reported the following:

ld: arch/x86/mm/init_64.o: in function `remove_pagetable':
init_64.c:(.meminit.text+0xfc7): undefined reference to
`vmem_altmap_free'

vmem_altmap_free() and vmem_altmap_offset() could be utlized without
CONFIG_ZONE_DEVICE enabled.  For example,
mm/memory_hotplug.c:__add_pages() relies on that.  The altmap is no longer
restricted to ZONE_DEVICE handling, but instead depends on
CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP.

When CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP is disabled, these functions are defined as
inline stubs, ensuring compatibility with configurations that do not use
sparsemem vmemmap.  Without it, lkp reported the following:

ld: arch/x86/mm/init_64.o: in function `remove_pagetable':
init_64.c:(.meminit.text+0xfc7): undefined reference to
`vmem_altmap_free'

There were already assertions that we were not passing a tail page to
error_remove_page(), so make the compiler enforce that by converting
everything to pass and use a folio.

<title>fork: use __mt_dup() to duplicate maple tree in dup_mmap()</title>

<content type='text'>
In dup_mmap(), using __mt_dup() to duplicate the old maple tree and then
directly replacing the entries of VMAs in the new maple tree can result in
better performance.  __mt_dup() uses DFS pre-order to duplicate the maple
tree, so it is efficient.

The average time complexity of __mt_dup() is O(n), where n is the number
of VMAs.  The proof of the time complexity is provided in the commit log
that introduces __mt_dup().  After duplicating the maple tree, each
element is traversed and replaced (ignoring the cases of deletion, which
are rare).  Since it is only a replacement operation for each element,
this process is also O(n).

Analyzing the exact time complexity of the previous algorithm is
challenging because each insertion can involve appending to a node,
pushing data to adjacent nodes, or even splitting nodes.  The frequency of
each action is difficult to calculate.  The worst-case scenario for a
single insertion is when the tree undergoes splitting at every level.  If
we consider each insertion as the worst-case scenario, we can determine
that the upper bound of the time complexity is O(n*log(n)), although this
is a loose upper bound.  However, based on the test data, it appears that
the actual time complexity is likely to be O(n).

As the entire maple tree is duplicated using __mt_dup(), if dup_mmap()
fails, there will be a portion of VMAs that have not been duplicated in
the maple tree.  To handle this, we mark the failure point with
XA_ZERO_ENTRY.  In exit_mmap(), if this marker is encountered, stop
releasing VMAs that have not been duplicated after this point.

There is a "spawn" in byte-unixbench[1], which can be used to test the
performance of fork().  I modified it slightly to make it work with
different number of VMAs.

Below are the test results.  The first row shows the number of VMAs.  The
second and third rows show the number of fork() calls per ten seconds,
corresponding to next-20231006 and the this patchset, respectively.  The
test results were obtained with CPU binding to avoid scheduler load
balancing that could cause unstable results.  There are still some
fluctuations in the test results, but at least they are better than the
original performance.

<title>mm, pmem, xfs: Introduce MF_MEM_PRE_REMOVE for unbind</title>
<updated>2023-12-07T09:04:26+00:00</updated>

<id>fa422b353d212373fb2b2857a5ea5a6fa4876f9c</id>
<content type='text'>
Now, if we suddenly remove a PMEM device(by calling unbind) which
contains FSDAX while programs are still accessing data in this device,
e.g.:
```
 $FSSTRESS_PROG -d $SCRATCH_MNT -n 99999 -p 4 &amp;
 # $FSX_PROG -N 1000000 -o 8192 -l 500000 $SCRATCH_MNT/t001 &amp;
 echo "pfn1.1" &gt; /sys/bus/nd/drivers/nd_pmem/unbind
```
it could come into an unacceptable state:
  1. device has gone but mount point still exists, and umount will fail
       with "target is busy"
  2. programs will hang and cannot be killed
  3. may crash with NULL pointer dereference

To fix this, we introduce a MF_MEM_PRE_REMOVE flag to let it know that we
are going to remove the whole device, and make sure all related processes
could be notified so that they could end up gracefully.

This patch is inspired by Dan's "mm, dax, pmem: Introduce
dev_pagemap_failure()"[1].  With the help of dax_holder and
-&gt;notify_failure() mechanism, the pmem driver is able to ask filesystem
on it to unmap all files in use, and notify processes who are using
those files.

Call trace:
trigger unbind
 -&gt; unbind_store()
  -&gt; ... (skip)
   -&gt; devres_release_all()
    -&gt; kill_dax()
     -&gt; dax_holder_notify_failure(dax_dev, 0, U64_MAX, MF_MEM_PRE_REMOVE)
      -&gt; xfs_dax_notify_failure()
      `-&gt; freeze_super()             // freeze (kernel call)
      `-&gt; do xfs rmap
      ` -&gt; mf_dax_kill_procs()
      `  -&gt; collect_procs_fsdax()    // all associated processes
      `  -&gt; unmap_and_kill()
      ` -&gt; invalidate_inode_pages2_range() // drop file's cache
      `-&gt; thaw_super()               // thaw (both kernel &amp; user call)

Introduce MF_MEM_PRE_REMOVE to let filesystem know this is a remove
event.  Use the exclusive freeze/thaw[2] to lock the filesystem to prevent
new dax mapping from being created.  Do not shutdown filesystem directly
if configuration is not supported, or if failure range includes metadata
area.  Make sure all files and processes(not only the current progress)
are handled correctly.  Also drop the cache of associated files before
pmem is removed.
