<title>mm: Make compound_pincount always available</title>

Move compound_pincount from the third page to the second page, which
means it's available for all compound pages.  That lets us delete
hpage_pincount_available().

On 32-bit systems, there isn't enough space for both compound_pincount
and compound_nr in the second page (it would collide with page-&gt;private,
which is in use for pages in the swap cache), so revert the optimisation
of storing both compound_order and compound_nr on 32-bit systems.

Avoid mixing strings and their anon_vma_name referenced pointers by
using struct anon_vma_name whenever possible.  This simplifies the code
and allows easier sharing of anon_vma_name structures when they
represent the same name.

<title>mm/munlock: maintain page-&gt;mlock_count while unevictable</title>
<updated>2022-02-17T16:56:57+00:00</updated>
<author>
<name>Hugh Dickins</name>
<email>hughd@google.com</email>

<published>2022-02-15T02:29:54+00:00</published>
<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.tavy.me/linux-stable.git/commit/?id=07ca760673088f262da57ff42c15558688565aa2'/>
<id>07ca760673088f262da57ff42c15558688565aa2</id>
<content type='text'>
Previous patches have been preparatory: now implement page-&gt;mlock_count.
The ordering of the "Unevictable LRU" is of no significance, and there is
no point holding unevictable pages on a list: place page-&gt;mlock_count to
overlay page-&gt;lru.prev (since page-&gt;lru.next is overlaid by compound_head,
which needs to be even so as not to satisfy PageTail - though 2 could be
added instead of 1 for each mlock, if that's ever an improvement).

But it's only safe to rely on or modify page-&gt;mlock_count while lruvec
lock is held and page is on unevictable "LRU" - we can save lots of edits
by continuing to pretend that there's an imaginary LRU here (there is an
unevictable count which still needs to be maintained, but not a list).

The mlock_count technique suffers from an unreliability much like with
page_mlock(): while someone else has the page off LRU, not much can
be done.  As before, err on the safe side (behave as if mlock_count 0),
and let try_to_unlock_one() move the page to unevictable if reclaim finds
out later on - a few misplaced pages don't matter, what we want to avoid
is imbalancing reclaim by flooding evictable lists with unevictable pages.

I am not a fan of "if (!isolate_lru_page(page)) putback_lru_page(page);":
if we have taken lruvec lock to get the page off its present list, then
we save everyone trouble (and however many extra atomic ops) by putting
it on its destination list immediately.

Change the CONFIG guards around definition and initialization

inadvertently removed during development.  Add it back.

As with the other members of folio, the offset of page-&gt;mapping and
folio-&gt;mapping must be the same.  The compile-time check was
inadvertently removed during development.  Add it back.

 "Finish the conversion to struct slab by removing slab-specific fields
  from struct page.

  The first slab update (see merge commit ca1a46d6f506) did most of the
  conversion, but there was also series in iommu tree removing the
  iommu's usage of struct page 'freelist' field, blocking the final
  struct page cleanup.

  Now that the iommu changes have been merged, we can finish the job"

<title>mm/rmap: fix potential batched TLB flush race</title>
<updated>2022-01-15T14:30:31+00:00</updated>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.tavy.me/linux-stable.git/commit/?id=5ee2fa2f063649570c702164f47a558a3432dd9e'/>
<id>5ee2fa2f063649570c702164f47a558a3432dd9e</id>
<content type='text'>
In theory, the following race is possible for batched TLB flushing.

  CPU0                               CPU1
  ----                               ----
  shrink_page_list()
                                     unmap
                                       zap_pte_range()
                                         flush_tlb_batched_pending()
                                           flush_tlb_mm()
    try_to_unmap()
      set_tlb_ubc_flush_pending()
        mm-&gt;tlb_flush_batched = true
                                           mm-&gt;tlb_flush_batched = false

After the TLB is flushed on CPU1 via flush_tlb_mm() and before
mm-&gt;tlb_flush_batched is set to false, some PTE is unmapped on CPU0 and
the TLB flushing is pended.  Then the pended TLB flushing will be lost.
Although both set_tlb_ubc_flush_pending() and
flush_tlb_batched_pending() are called with PTL locked, different PTL
instances may be used.

Because the race window is really small, and the lost TLB flushing will
cause problem only if a TLB entry is inserted before the unmapping in
the race window, the race is only theoretical.  But the fix is simple
and cheap too.

Syzbot has reported this too as follows:
