According to the OpenRISC architecture manual, the dcache and icache may
not be present. When these caches are present, the invalidate and flush
registers may be absent. The current implementation does not perform
checks to verify their presence before utilizing cache registers, or
invalidating and flushing cache blocks.

Introduce new functions to detect the presence of cache components and
related special-purpose registers.

There are a few places where a range of addresses have to be flushed or
invalidated and the implementation is duplicated. Introduce new utility
functions and macros that generalize this implementation and reduce
duplication.

The "cpuinfo_or1k" structure currently has identical data members for
different cache components.

Remove these fields out of struct cpuinfo_or1k and into its own struct.
This reduces duplication while keeping cpuinfo_or1k extensible so more
cache descriptors can be added in the future.

Also add a new field "sets" to the new structure.

<title>mm: pgtable: convert some architectures to use tlb_remove_ptdesc()</title>

<content type='text'>
Now, the nine architectures of csky, hexagon, loongarch, m68k, mips,
nios2, openrisc, sh and um do not select CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE,
and just call pagetable_dtor() + tlb_remove_page_ptdesc() (the wrapper of
tlb_remove_page()).  This is the same as the implementation of
tlb_remove_{ptdesc|table}() under !CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_TABLE_FREE, so
convert these architectures to use tlb_remove_ptdesc().

The ultimate goal is to make the architecture only use tlb_remove_ptdesc()
or tlb_remove_table() for page table pages.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
 "The various patchsets are summarized below. Plus of course many
  indivudual patches which are described in their changelogs.

   - "Allocate and free frozen pages" from Matthew Wilcox reorganizes
     the page allocator so we end up with the ability to allocate and
     free zero-refcount pages. So that callers (ie, slab) can avoid a
     refcount inc &amp; dec

   - "Support large folios for tmpfs" from Baolin Wang teaches tmpfs to
     use large folios other than PMD-sized ones

   - "Fix mm/rodata_test" from Petr Tesarik performs some maintenance
     and fixes for this small built-in kernel selftest

   - "mas_anode_descend() related cleanup" from Wei Yang tidies up part
     of the mapletree code

   - "mm: fix format issues and param types" from Keren Sun implements a
     few minor code cleanups

   - "simplify split calculation" from Wei Yang provides a few fixes and
     a test for the mapletree code

   - "mm/vma: make more mmap logic userland testable" from Lorenzo
     Stoakes continues the work of moving vma-related code into the
     (relatively) new mm/vma.c

   - "mm/page_alloc: gfp flags cleanups for alloc_contig_*()" from David
     Hildenbrand cleans up and rationalizes handling of gfp flags in the
     page allocator

   - "readahead: Reintroduce fix for improper RA window sizing" from Jan
     Kara is a second attempt at fixing a readahead window sizing issue.
     It should reduce the amount of unnecessary reading

   - "synchronously scan and reclaim empty user PTE pages" from Qi Zheng
     addresses an issue where "huge" amounts of pte pagetables are
     accumulated:

       https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/cover.1718267194.git.zhengqi.arch@bytedance.com/

     Qi's series addresses this windup by synchronously freeing PTE
     memory within the context of madvise(MADV_DONTNEED)

   - "selftest/mm: Remove warnings found by adding compiler flags" from
     Muhammad Usama Anjum fixes some build warnings in the selftests
     code when optional compiler warnings are enabled

   - "mm: don't use __GFP_HARDWALL when migrating remote pages" from
     David Hildenbrand tightens the allocator's observance of
     __GFP_HARDWALL

   - "pkeys kselftests improvements" from Kevin Brodsky implements
     various fixes and cleanups in the MM selftests code, mainly
     pertaining to the pkeys tests

   - "mm/damon: add sample modules" from SeongJae Park enhances DAMON to
     estimate application working set size

   - "memcg/hugetlb: Rework memcg hugetlb charging" from Joshua Hahn
     provides some cleanups to memcg's hugetlb charging logic

   - "mm/swap_cgroup: remove global swap cgroup lock" from Kairui Song
     removes the global swap cgroup lock. A speedup of 10% for a
     tmpfs-based kernel build was demonstrated

   - "zram: split page type read/write handling" from Sergey Senozhatsky
     has several fixes and cleaups for zram in the area of
     zram_write_page(). A watchdog softlockup warning was eliminated

   - "move pagetable_*_dtor() to __tlb_remove_table()" from Kevin
     Brodsky cleans up the pagetable destructor implementations. A rare
     use-after-free race is fixed

   - "mm/debug: introduce and use VM_WARN_ON_VMG()" from Lorenzo Stoakes
     simplifies and cleans up the debugging code in the VMA merging
     logic

   - "Account page tables at all levels" from Kevin Brodsky cleans up
     and regularizes the pagetable ctor/dtor handling. This results in
     improvements in accounting accuracy

   - "mm/damon: replace most damon_callback usages in sysfs with new
     core functions" from SeongJae Park cleans up and generalizes
     DAMON's sysfs file interface logic

   - "mm/damon: enable page level properties based monitoring" from
     SeongJae Park increases the amount of information which is
     presented in response to DAMOS actions

   - "mm/damon: remove DAMON debugfs interface" from SeongJae Park
     removes DAMON's long-deprecated debugfs interfaces. Thus the
     migration to sysfs is completed

   - "mm/hugetlb: Refactor hugetlb allocation resv accounting" from
     Peter Xu cleans up and generalizes the hugetlb reservation
     accounting

   - "mm: alloc_pages_bulk: small API refactor" from Luiz Capitulino
     removes a never-used feature of the alloc_pages_bulk() interface

   - "mm/damon: extend DAMOS filters for inclusion" from SeongJae Park
     extends DAMOS filters to support not only exclusion (rejecting),
     but also inclusion (allowing) behavior

   - "Add zpdesc memory descriptor for zswap.zpool" from Alex Shi
     introduces a new memory descriptor for zswap.zpool that currently
     overlaps with struct page for now. This is part of the effort to
     reduce the size of struct page and to enable dynamic allocation of
     memory descriptors

   - "mm, swap: rework of swap allocator locks" from Kairui Song redoes
     and simplifies the swap allocator locking. A speedup of 400% was
     demonstrated for one workload. As was a 35% reduction for kernel
     build time with swap-on-zram

   - "mm: update mips to use do_mmap(), make mmap_region() internal"
     from Lorenzo Stoakes reworks MIPS's use of mmap_region() so that
     mmap_region() can be made MM-internal

   - "mm/mglru: performance optimizations" from Yu Zhao fixes a few
     MGLRU regressions and otherwise improves MGLRU performance

   - "Docs/mm/damon: add tuning guide and misc updates" from SeongJae
     Park updates DAMON documentation

   - "Cleanup for memfd_create()" from Isaac Manjarres does that thing

   - "mm: hugetlb+THP folio and migration cleanups" from David
     Hildenbrand provides various cleanups in the areas of hugetlb
     folios, THP folios and migration

   - "Uncached buffered IO" from Jens Axboe implements the new
     RWF_DONTCACHE flag which provides synchronous dropbehind for
     pagecache reading and writing. To permite userspace to address
     issues with massive buildup of useless pagecache when
     reading/writing fast devices

   - "selftests/mm: virtual_address_range: Reduce memory" from Thomas
     Weißschuh fixes and optimizes some of the MM selftests"

<title>asm-generic: pgalloc: provide generic __pgd_{alloc,free}</title>

<id>a9b3c355c2e6388b0a3b67627460a516d88bdbc9</id>
<content type='text'>
We already have a generic implementation of alloc/free up to P4D level, as
well as pgd_free().  Let's finish the work and add a generic PGD-level
alloc helper as well.

Unlike at lower levels, almost all architectures need some specific magic
at PGD level (typically initialising PGD entries), so introducing a
generic pgd_alloc() isn't worth it.  Instead we introduce two new helpers,
__pgd_alloc() and __pgd_free(), and make use of them in the arch-specific
pgd_alloc() and pgd_free() wherever possible.  To accommodate as many arch
as possible, __pgd_alloc() takes a page allocation order.

Because pagetable_alloc() allocates zeroed pages, explicit zeroing in
pgd_alloc() becomes redundant and we can get rid of it.  Some trivial
implementations of pgd_free() also become unnecessary once __pgd_alloc()
is used; remove them.

Another small improvement is consistent accounting of PGD pages by using
GFP_PGTABLE_{USER,KERNEL} as appropriate.

Not all PGD allocations can be handled by the generic helpers.  In
particular, multiple architectures allocate PGDs from a kmem_cache, and
those PGDs may not be page-sized.

<title>mm: pgtable: introduce pagetable_dtor()</title>

The pagetable_p*_dtor() are exactly the same except for the handling of
ptlock.  If we make ptlock_free() handle the case where ptdesc-&gt;ptl is
NULL and remove VM_BUG_ON_PAGE() from pmd_ptlock_free(), we can unify
pagetable_p*_dtor() into one function.  Let's introduce pagetable_dtor()
to do this.

Later, pagetable_dtor() will be moved to tlb_remove_ptdesc(), so that
ptlock and page table pages can be freed together (regardless of whether
RCU is used).  This prevents the use-after-free problem where the ptlock
is freed immediately but the page table pages is freed later via RCU.

Support for HAVE_REGS_AND_STACK_ACCESS_API needed for restartable
sequences.

The implementation has been copied from riscv and tested with the
restartable sequences self tests.

Note, pt-regs members are 'long' on openrisc which require casts for the
api, someday we should try to update these to be 'unsigned long' as
that's what they really are.

   series which clean up the implementation:
	- "refine mas_mab_cp()"
	- "Reduce the space to be cleared for maple_big_node"
	- "maple_tree: simplify mas_push_node()"
	- "Following cleanup after introduce mas_wr_store_type()"
	- "refine storing null"

 - The series "Unify hugetlb into arch_get_unmapped_area functions" from
   Oscar Salvador implements a bunch of consolidations and cleanups in
   the hugetlb code.

 - The series "Do not shatter hugezeropage on wp-fault" from Dev Jain
   takes away the wp-fault time practice of turning a huge zero page
   into small pages. Instead we replace the whole thing with a THP. More
   consistent cleaner and potentiall saves a large number of pagefaults.

 - The series "percpu: Add a test case and fix for clang" from Andy
   Shevchenko enhances and fixes the kernel's built in percpu test code.

 - The series "mm/mremap: Remove extra vma tree walk" from Liam Howlett
   optimizes mremap() by avoiding doing things which we didn't need to
   do.

 - The series "Improve the tmpfs large folio read performance" from
   Baolin Wang teaches tmpfs to copy data into userspace at the folio
   size rather than as individual pages. A 20% speedup was observed.

 - The series "mm/damon/vaddr: Fix issue in
   damon_va_evenly_split_region()" fro Zheng Yejian fixes DAMON
   splitting.

 - The series "memcg-v1: fully deprecate charge moving" from Shakeel
   Butt removes the long-deprecated memcgv2 charge moving feature.

   Lorenzo Stoakes cleanup up some of the mmap() error handling and
   addresses some potential performance issues.

 - The series "x86/module: use large ROX pages for text allocations"
   from Mike Rapoport teaches x86 to use large pages for
   read-only-execute module text.

 - The series "page allocation tag compression" from Suren Baghdasaryan
   is followon maintenance work for the new page allocation profiling
   feature.

 - The series "page-&gt;index removals in mm" from Matthew Wilcox remove
   most references to page-&gt;index in mm/. A slow march towards shrinking
   struct page.

   interface tests" from Andrew Paniakin performs maintenance work for
   DAMON's self testing code.

 - The series "mm: zswap swap-out of large folios" from Kanchana Sridhar
   improves zswap's batching of compression and decompression. It is a
   step along the way towards using Intel IAA hardware acceleration for
   this zswap operation.

 - The series "kasan: migrate the last module test to kunit" from
   Sabyrzhan Tasbolatov completes the migration of the KASAN built-in
   tests over to the KUnit framework.

 - The series "implement lightweight guard pages" from Lorenzo Stoakes
   permits userapace to place fault-generating guard pages within a
   single VMA, rather than requiring that multiple VMAs be created for
   this. Improved efficiencies for userspace memory allocators are
   expected.

 - The series "memcg: tracepoint for flushing stats" from JP Kobryn uses
   tracepoints to provide increased visibility into memcg stats flushing
   activity.

 - The series "zram: IDLE flag handling fixes" from Sergey Senozhatsky
   fixes a zram buglet which potentially affected performance.

 - The series "mm: add more kernel parameters to control mTHP" from
   Maíra Canal enhances our ability to control/configuremultisize THP
   from the kernel boot command line.

 - The series "mm: zswap swap-out of large folios" from Kanchana Sridhar
   improves zswap's batching of compression and decompression. It is a
   step along the way towards using Intel IAA hardware acceleration for
   this zswap operation.

 - The series "kasan: migrate the last module test to kunit" from
   Sabyrzhan Tasbolatov completes the migration of the KASAN built-in
   tests over to the KUnit framework.

 - The series "implement lightweight guard pages" from Lorenzo Stoakes
   permits userapace to place fault-generating guard pages within a
   single VMA, rather than requiring that multiple VMAs be created for
   this. Improved efficiencies for userspace memory allocators are
   expected.

 - The series "memcg: tracepoint for flushing stats" from JP Kobryn uses
   tracepoints to provide increased visibility into memcg stats flushing
   activity.

 - The series "zram: IDLE flag handling fixes" from Sergey Senozhatsky
   fixes a zram buglet which potentially affected performance.

 - The series "mm: add more kernel parameters to control mTHP" from
   Maíra Canal enhances our ability to control/configuremultisize THP
   from the kernel boot command line.

 - The series "kasan: few improvements on kunit tests" from Sabyrzhan
   Tasbolatov has a couple of fixups for the KASAN KUnit tests.

 - The series "mm/list_lru: Split list_lru lock into per-cgroup scope"
   from Kairui Song optimizes list_lru memory utilization when lockdep
   is enabled.

Pull asm-generic updates from Arnd Bergmann:
 "These are a number of unrelated cleanups, generally simplifying the
  architecture specific header files:

   - A series from Al Viro simplifies asm/vga.h, after it turns out that
     most of it can be generalized.

   - A series from Julian Vetter adds a common version of
     memcpy_{to,from}io() and memset_io() and changes most architectures
     to use that instead of their own implementation

   - A series from Niklas Schnelle concludes his work to make PC style
     inb()/outb() optional

   - Nicolas Pitre contributes improvements for the generic do_div()
     helper

   - Christoph Hellwig adds a generic version of page_to_phys() and
     phys_to_page(), replacing the slightly different architecture
     specific definitions.

   - Uwe Kleine-Koenig has a minor cleanup for ioctl definitions"
