<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.

The larger memory space is useful to support more applications inside
UML. One example for this is ASAN instrumentation of userspace
applications which requires addresses that would otherwise not be
available.

Highmem was only supported on UML/i386. And the support has been
removed by commit a98a6d864d3b ("um: Remove broken highmem support").
Remove the leftovers and stop UML from trying to setup highmem when
the sum of physmem_size and iomem_size exceeds max_physmem.

<title>um/mm: remove redundant assignment of max_low_pfn</title>

<id>5cd93c7532ea31108e83720cbe25589a4ee57c50</id>
<content type='text'>
Current calculation of max_low_pfn is introduced in commit af84eab20891
("[PATCH] uml: fix LVM crash"). It is intended to set max_low_pfn to the
same value as max_pfn.

But I am not sure why the max_pfn is set to totalram_pages, which
represents the number of usable pages in system instead of an absolute
page frame number. (The change history stops there.)

While we have already calculate it in setup_physmem(), so not necessary
to do it again.

Also this would help changing totalram_pages accounting, since we plan
to move the accounting into __free_pages_core(). With this change,
totalram_pages may not represent the total usable pages at this point,
since some pages would be deferred initialized.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
 "Most of the MM queue. A few things are still pending.

  Liam's maple tree rework didn't make it. This has resulted in a few
  other minor patch series being held over for next time.

  Multi-gen LRU still isn't merged as we were waiting for mapletree to
  stabilize. The current plan is to merge MGLRU into -mm soon and to
  later reintroduce mapletree, with a view to hopefully getting both
  into 6.1-rc1.

  Summary:

   - The usual batches of cleanups from Baoquan He, Muchun Song, Miaohe
     Lin, Yang Shi, Anshuman Khandual and Mike Rapoport

   - Some kmemleak fixes from Patrick Wang and Waiman Long

   - DAMON updates from SeongJae Park

   - memcg debug/visibility work from Roman Gushchin

   - vmalloc speedup from Uladzislau Rezki

   - more folio conversion work from Matthew Wilcox

   - enhancements for coherent device memory mapping from Alex Sierra

   - addition of shared pages tracking and CoW support for fsdax, from
     Shiyang Ruan

   - hugetlb optimizations from Mike Kravetz

   - Mel Gorman has contributed some pagealloc changes to improve
     latency and realtime behaviour.

   - mprotect soft-dirty checking has been improved by Peter Xu

   - Many other singleton patches all over the place"

This enables ARCH_HAS_VM_GET_PAGE_PROT on the platform and exports
standard vm_get_page_prot() implementation via DECLARE_VM_GET_PAGE_PROT,
which looks up a private and static protection_map[] array.  Subsequently
all __SXXX and __PXXX macros can be dropped which are no longer needed.

<title>UML: add support for KASAN under x86_64</title>

<id>5b301409e8bc5d7fad2ee138be44c5c529dd0874</id>
<content type='text'>
Make KASAN run on User Mode Linux on x86_64.

The UML-specific KASAN initializer uses mmap to map the ~16TB of shadow
memory to the location defined by KASAN_SHADOW_OFFSET.  kasan_init()
utilizes constructors to initialize KASAN before main().

The location of the KASAN shadow memory, starting at
KASAN_SHADOW_OFFSET, can be configured using the KASAN_SHADOW_OFFSET
option. The default location of this offset is 0x100000000000, which
keeps it out-of-the-way even on UML setups with more "physical" memory.

For low-memory setups, 0x7fff8000 can be used instead, which fits in an
immediate and is therefore faster, as suggested by Dmitry Vyukov. There
is usually enough free space at this location; however, it is a config
option so that it can be easily changed if needed.

Note that, unlike KASAN on other architectures, vmalloc allocations
still use the shadow memory allocated upfront, rather than allocating
and free-ing it per-vmalloc allocation.

If another architecture chooses to go down the same path, we should
replace the checks for CONFIG_UML with something more generic, such
as:
- A CONFIG_KASAN_NO_SHADOW_ALLOC option, which architectures could set
- or, a way of having architecture-specific versions of these vmalloc
  and module shadow memory allocation options.

Also note that, while UML supports both KASAN in inline mode
(CONFIG_KASAN_INLINE) and static linking (CONFIG_STATIC_LINK), it does
not support both at the same time.
