commit c10a0f877fe007021d70f9cada240f42adc2b5db upstream.

When using devm_request_free_mem_region() and devm_memremap_pages() to
add ZONE_DEVICE memory, if requested free mem region's end pfn were
huge(e.g., 0x400000000), the node_end_pfn() will be also huge (see
move_pfn_range_to_zone()).  Thus it creates a huge hole between
node_start_pfn() and node_end_pfn().

We found on some AMD APUs, amdkfd requested such a free mem region and
created a huge hole.  In such a case, following code snippet was just
doing busy test_bit() looping on the huge hole.

  for (pfn = start_pfn; pfn &lt; end_pfn; pfn++) {
	struct page *page = pfn_to_online_page(pfn);
		if (!page)
			continue;
	...
  }

So we got a soft lockup:

  watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#6 stuck for 26s! [bash:1221]
  CPU: 6 PID: 1221 Comm: bash Not tainted 5.15.0-custom #1

commit fb5222aae64fe25e5f3ebefde8214dcf3ba33ca5 upstream.

Patch series "page table check fixes and cleanups", v5.

This patch (of 4):

The pte entry that is used in pte_advanced_tests() is never removed from
the page table at the end of the test.

The issue is detected by page_table_check, to repro compile kernel with
the following configs:

CONFIG_DEBUG_VM_PGTABLE=y
CONFIG_PAGE_TABLE_CHECK=y
CONFIG_PAGE_TABLE_CHECK_ENFORCED=y

During the boot the following BUG is printed:

  debug_vm_pgtable: [debug_vm_pgtable         ]: Validating architecture page table helpers
  ------------[ cut here ]------------
  kernel BUG at mm/page_table_check.c:162!
  invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP PTI

  ...

The entry should be properly removed from the page table before the page
is released to the free list.

<title>Revert "mm/gup: small refactoring: simplify try_grab_page()"</title>

commit c36c04c2e132fc39f6b658bf607aed4425427fd7 upstream.

This reverts commit 54d516b1d62ff8f17cee2da06e5e4706a0d00b8a

That commit did a refactoring that effectively combined fast and slow
gup paths (again).  And that was again incorrect, for two reasons:

 a) Fast gup and slow gup get reference counts on pages in different
    ways and with different goals: see Linus' writeup in commit
    cd1adf1b63a1 ("Revert "mm/gup: remove try_get_page(), call
    try_get_compound_head() directly""), and

 b) try_grab_compound_head() also has a specific check for
    "FOLL_LONGTERM &amp;&amp; !is_pinned(page)", that assumes that the caller
    can fall back to slow gup. This resulted in new failures, as
    recently report by Will McVicker [1].

But (a) has problems too, even though they may not have been reported
yet.  So just revert this.

commit 5b3be698a872c490dbed524f3e2463701ab21339 upstream.

Commit 11192d9c124d ("memcg: flush stats only if updated") added
tracking of memcg stats updates which is used by the readers to flush
only if the updates are over a certain threshold.  However each
individual update can correspond to a large value change for a given
stat.  For example adding or removing a hugepage to an LRU changes the
stat by thp_nr_pages (512 on x86_64).

Treating the update related to THP as one can keep the stat off, in
theory, by (thp_nr_pages * nr_cpus * CHARGE_BATCH) before flush.

To handle such scenarios, this patch adds consideration of the stat
update value as well instead of just the update event.  In addition let
the asyn flusher unconditionally flush the stats to put time limit on
the stats skew and hopefully a lot less readers would need to flush.

<title>mm/hmm.c: allow VM_MIXEDMAP to work with hmm_range_fault</title>

commit 87c01d57fa23de82fff593a7d070933d08755801 upstream.

hmm_range_fault() can be used instead of get_user_pages() for devices
which allow faulting however unlike get_user_pages() it will return an
error when used on a VM_MIXEDMAP range.

To make hmm_range_fault() more closely match get_user_pages() remove
this restriction.  This requires dealing with the !ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL
case in hmm_vma_handle_pte().  Rather than replicating the logic of
vm_normal_page() call it directly and do a check for the zero pfn
similar to what get_user_pages() currently does.

commit 87c01d57fa23de82fff593a7d070933d08755801 upstream.

hmm_range_fault() can be used instead of get_user_pages() for devices
which allow faulting however unlike get_user_pages() it will return an
error when used on a VM_MIXEDMAP range.

To make hmm_range_fault() more closely match get_user_pages() remove
this restriction.  This requires dealing with the !ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL
case in hmm_vma_handle_pte().  Rather than replicating the logic of
vm_normal_page() call it directly and do a check for the zero pfn
similar to what get_user_pages() currently does.

Also add a test to hmm selftest to verify functionality.

[ Upstream commit 26dca996ea7b1ac7008b6b6063fc88b849e3ac3e ]

KASAN's quarantine might save its metadata inside freed objects.  As
this happens after the memory is zeroed by the slab allocator when
init_on_free is enabled, the memory coming out of quarantine is not
properly zeroed.

This causes lib/test_meminit.c tests to fail with Generic KASAN.

Zero the metadata when the object is removed from quarantine.

[ Upstream commit 60115fa54ad7b913b7cb5844e6b7ffeb842d55f2 ]

Yongqiang reports a kmemleak panic when module insmod/rmmod with KASAN
enabled(without KASAN_VMALLOC) on x86[1].

When the module area allocates memory, it's kmemleak_object is created
successfully, but the KASAN shadow memory of module allocation is not
ready, so when kmemleak scan the module's pointer, it will panic due to
no shadow memory with KASAN check.

  module_alloc
    __vmalloc_node_range
      kmemleak_vmalloc
				kmemleak_scan
				  update_checksum
    kasan_module_alloc
      kmemleak_ignore

Note, there is no problem if KASAN_VMALLOC enabled, the modules area
entire shadow memory is preallocated.  Thus, the bug only exits on ARCH
which supports dynamic allocation of module area per module load, for
now, only x86/arm64/s390 are involved.

Add a VM_DEFER_KMEMLEAK flags, defer vmalloc'ed object register of
kmemleak in module_alloc() to fix this issue.

<title>shmem: fix a race between shmem_unused_huge_shrink and shmem_evict_inode</title>

commit 62c9827cbb996c2c04f615ecd783ce28bcea894b upstream.

Fix a data race in commit 779750d20b93 ("shmem: split huge pages beyond
i_size under memory pressure").

Here are call traces causing race:

   Call Trace 1:
     shmem_unused_huge_shrink+0x3ae/0x410
     ? __list_lru_walk_one.isra.5+0x33/0x160

     shrink_slab.part.55+0x1ef/0x3f0
     shrink_node+0x10e/0x330
     kswapd+0x380/0x740
     kthread+0xfc/0x130
     ? mem_cgroup_shrink_node+0x170/0x170
     ? kthread_create_on_node+0x70/0x70
     ret_from_fork+0x1f/0x30

   Call Trace 2:
     shmem_evict_inode+0xd8/0x190
     evict+0xbe/0x1c0
     do_unlinkat+0x137/0x330
     do_syscall_64+0x76/0x120
     entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x3d/0xa2

A simple explanation:

Image there are 3 items in the local list (@list).  In the first
traversal, A is not deleted from @list.

  1)    A-&gt;B-&gt;C
        ^
        |
        pos (leave)

In the second traversal, B is deleted from @list.  Concurrently, A is
deleted from @list through shmem_evict_inode() since last reference
counter of inode is dropped by other thread.  Then the @list is corrupted.

  2)    A-&gt;B-&gt;C
        ^  ^
        |  |
     evict pos (drop)

We should make sure the inode is either on the global list or deleted from
any local list before iput().

Fixed by moving inodes back to global list before we put them.

<title>mm/page_alloc.c: do not warn allocation failure on zone DMA if no managed pages</title>

commit c4dc63f0032c77464fbd4e7a6afc22fa6913c4a7 upstream.

In kdump kernel of x86_64, page allocation failure is observed:

 kworker/u2:2: page allocation failure: order:0, mode:0xcc1(GFP_KERNEL|GFP_DMA), nodemask=(null),cpuset=/,mems_allowed=0

 Mem-Info:
 ......

The above failure happened when calling kmalloc() to allocate buffer with
GFP_DMA.  It requests to allocate slab page from DMA zone while no managed
pages at all in there.

 sr_probe()
 --&gt; get_capabilities()
     --&gt; buffer = kmalloc(512, GFP_KERNEL | GFP_DMA);

Because in the current kernel, dma-kmalloc will be created as long as
CONFIG_ZONE_DMA is enabled.  However, kdump kernel of x86_64 doesn't have
managed pages on DMA zone since commit 6f599d84231f ("x86/kdump: Always
reserve the low 1M when the crashkernel option is specified").  The
failure can be always reproduced.

For now, let's mute the warning of allocation failure if requesting pages
from DMA zone while no managed pages.

commit c4dc63f0032c77464fbd4e7a6afc22fa6913c4a7 upstream.

In kdump kernel of x86_64, page allocation failure is observed:

 kworker/u2:2: page allocation failure: order:0, mode:0xcc1(GFP_KERNEL|GFP_DMA), nodemask=(null),cpuset=/,mems_allowed=0

The above failure happened when calling kmalloc() to allocate buffer with
GFP_DMA.  It requests to allocate slab page from DMA zone while no managed
pages at all in there.

 sr_probe()
 --&gt; get_capabilities()
     --&gt; buffer = kmalloc(512, GFP_KERNEL | GFP_DMA);

Because in the current kernel, dma-kmalloc will be created as long as
CONFIG_ZONE_DMA is enabled.  However, kdump kernel of x86_64 doesn't have
managed pages on DMA zone since commit 6f599d84231f ("x86/kdump: Always
reserve the low 1M when the crashkernel option is specified").  The
failure can be always reproduced.

For now, let's mute the warning of allocation failure if requesting pages
from DMA zone while no managed pages.

commit 62b3107073646e0946bd97ff926832bafb846d17 upstream.

Patch series "Handle warning of allocation failure on DMA zone w/o
managed pages", v4.

**Problem observed:
On x86_64, when crash is triggered and entering into kdump kernel, page
allocation failure can always be seen.

 ---------------------------------
 DMA: preallocated 128 KiB GFP_KERNEL pool for atomic allocations
 swapper/0: page allocation failure: order:5, mode:0xcc1(GFP_KERNEL|GFP_DMA), nodemask=(null),cpuset=/,mems_allowed=0

 Mem-Info:
 ------------------------------------

***Root cause:
In the current kernel, it assumes that DMA zone must have managed pages
and try to request pages if CONFIG_ZONE_DMA is enabled. While this is not
always true. E.g in kdump kernel of x86_64, only low 1M is presented and
locked down at very early stage of boot, so that this low 1M won't be
added into buddy allocator to become managed pages of DMA zone. This
exception will always cause page allocation failure if page is requested
from DMA zone.

***Investigation:
This failure happens since below commit merged into linus's tree.
  1a6a9044b967 x86/setup: Remove CONFIG_X86_RESERVE_LOW and reservelow= options
  23721c8e92f7 x86/crash: Remove crash_reserve_low_1M()
  f1d4d47c5851 x86/setup: Always reserve the first 1M of RAM
  7c321eb2b843 x86/kdump: Remove the backup region handling
  6f599d84231f x86/kdump: Always reserve the low 1M when the crashkernel option is specified

Before them, on x86_64, the low 640K area will be reused by kdump kernel.
So in kdump kernel, the content of low 640K area is copied into a backup
region for dumping before jumping into kdump. Then except of those firmware
reserved region in [0, 640K], the left area will be added into buddy
allocator to become available managed pages of DMA zone.

However, after above commits applied, in kdump kernel of x86_64, the low
1M is reserved by memblock, but not released to buddy allocator. So any
later page allocation requested from DMA zone will fail.

At the beginning, if crashkernel is reserved, the low 1M need be locked
down because AMD SME encrypts memory making the old backup region
mechanims impossible when switching into kdump kernel.

Later, it was also observed that there are BIOSes corrupting memory
under 1M. To solve this, in commit f1d4d47c5851, the entire region of
low 1M is always reserved after the real mode trampoline is allocated.

Besides, recently, Intel engineer mentioned their TDX (Trusted domain
extensions) which is under development in kernel also needs to lock down
the low 1M. So we can't simply revert above commits to fix the page allocation
failure from DMA zone as someone suggested.

***Solution:
Currently, only DMA atomic pool and dma-kmalloc will initialize and
request page allocation with GFP_DMA during bootup.

So only initializ DMA atomic pool when DMA zone has available managed
pages, otherwise just skip the initialization.

For dma-kmalloc(), for the time being, let's mute the warning of
allocation failure if requesting pages from DMA zone while no manged
pages.  Meanwhile, change code to use dma_alloc_xx/dma_map_xx API to
replace kmalloc(GFP_DMA), or do not use GFP_DMA when calling kmalloc() if
not necessary.  Christoph is posting patches to fix those under
drivers/scsi/.  Finally, we can remove the need of dma-kmalloc() as people
suggested.

This patch (of 3):

In some places of the current kernel, it assumes that dma zone must have
managed pages if CONFIG_ZONE_DMA is enabled.  While this is not always
true.  E.g in kdump kernel of x86_64, only low 1M is presented and locked
down at very early stage of boot, so that there's no managed pages at all
in DMA zone.  This exception will always cause page allocation failure if
page is requested from DMA zone.

Here add function has_managed_dma() and the relevant helper functions to
check if there's DMA zone with managed pages.  It will be used in later
patches.
