Pull more tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt: - Fix regression of waiting a long time on updating trace event filters When the faultable trace points were added, it needed task trace RCU synchronization. This was added to the tracepoint_synchronize_unregister() function. The filter logic always called this function whenever it updated the trace event filters before freeing the old filters. This increased the time of "trace-cmd record" from taking 13 seconds to running over 2 minutes to complete. Move the freeing of the filters to call_rcu*() logic, which brings the time back down to 13 seconds. - Fix ring_buffer_subbuf_order_set() error path lock protection The error path of the ring_buffer_subbuf_order_set() released the mutex too early and allowed subsequent accesses to setting the subbuffer size to corrupt the data and cause a bug. By moving the mutex locking to the end of the error path, it prevents the reentrant access to the critical data and also allows the function to convert the taking of the mutex over to the guard() logic. - Remove unused power management clock events The clock events were added in 2010 for power management. In 2011 arm used them. In 2013 the code they were used in was removed. These events have been wasting memory since then. - Fix sparse warnings There was a few places that sparse warned about trace_events_filter.c where file->filter was referenced directly, but it is annotated with an __rcu tag. Use the helper functions and fix them up to use rcu_dereference() properly. * tag 'trace-v6.16-3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace: tracing: Add rcu annotation around file->filter accesses tracing: PM: Remove unused clock events ring-buffer: Fix buffer locking in ring_buffer_subbuf_order_set() tracing: Fix regression of filter waiting a long time on RCU synchronization
The events clock_enable, clock_disable, and clock_set_rate were added back
in 2010. In 2011 they were used by the arm architecture but removed in
2013. These events add around 7K of memory which was wasted for the last 12
years.
Remove them.

Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt: - Fix UAF in module unload in ftrace when there's a bug in the module If a module is buggy and triggers ftrace_disable which is set when an anomaly is detected, when it gets unloaded it doesn't free the hooks into kallsyms, and when a kallsyms lookup is performed it may access the mod->modname field and crash via UAF. Fix this by still freeing the mod_maps that are attached to kallsyms on module unload regardless if ftrace_disable is set or not. - Do not bother allocating mod_maps for kallsyms if ftrace_disable is set - Remove unused trace events When a trace event or tracepoint is created but not used, it still creates the code and data structures needed for that trace event. This just wastes memory. Remove the trace events that are created but not used. This does not remove trace events that are created but are not used due configs not being set. That will be handled later. This only removes events that have no user under any config. * tag 'trace-v6.16-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace: fsdax: Remove unused trace events for dax insert mapping genirq/matrix: Remove unused irq_matrix_alloc_reserved tracepoint xdp: Remove unused mem_return_failed event ftrace: Don't allocate ftrace module map if ftrace is disabled ftrace: Fix UAF when lookup kallsym after ftrace disabled
When the dax_fault_actor() helper was factored out, it removed the calls
to the dax_pmd_insert_mapping and dax_insert_mapping events but never
removed the events themselves. As each event created takes up memory
(roughly 5K each), this is a waste as it is never used.
Remove the unused dax_pmd_insert_mapping and dax_insert_mapping trace
events.

The change to allow page_pool to handle its own page destruction instead
of relying on XDP removed the trace_mem_return_failed() tracepoint caller,
but did not remove the mem_return_failed trace event. As trace events take
up memory when they are created regardless of if they are used or not,
having this unused event around wastes around 5K of memory.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton: - "Add folio_mk_pte()" from Matthew Wilcox simplifies the act of creating a pte which addresses the first page in a folio and reduces the amount of plumbing which architecture must implement to provide this. - "Misc folio patches for 6.16" from Matthew Wilcox is a shower of largely unrelated folio infrastructure changes which clean things up and better prepare us for future work. - "memory,x86,acpi: hotplug memory alignment advisement" from Gregory Price adds early-init code to prevent x86 from leaving physical memory unused when physical address regions are not aligned to memory block size. - "mm/compaction: allow more aggressive proactive compaction" from Michal Clapinski provides some tuning of the (sadly, hard-coded (more sadly, not auto-tuned)) thresholds for our invokation of proactive compaction. In a simple test case, the reduction of a guest VM's memory consumption was dramatic. - "Minor cleanups and improvements to swap freeing code" from Kemeng Shi provides some code cleaups and a small efficiency improvement to this part of our swap handling code. - "ptrace: introduce PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO API" from Dmitry Levin adds the ability for a ptracer to modify syscalls arguments. At this time we can alter only "system call information that are used by strace system call tampering, namely, syscall number, syscall arguments, and syscall return value. This series should have been incorporated into mm.git's "non-MM" branch, but I goofed. - "fs/proc: extend the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl to report guard regions" from Andrei Vagin extends the info returned by the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl against /proc/pid/pagemap. This permits CRIU to more efficiently get at the info about guard regions. - "Fix parameter passed to page_mapcount_is_type()" from Gavin Shan implements that fix. No runtime effect is expected because validate_page_before_insert() happens to fix up this error. - "kernel/events/uprobes: uprobe_write_opcode() rewrite" from David Hildenbrand basically brings uprobe text poking into the current decade. Remove a bunch of hand-rolled implementation in favor of using more current facilities. - "mm/ptdump: Drop assumption that pxd_val() is u64" from Anshuman Khandual provides enhancements and generalizations to the pte dumping code. This might be needed when 128-bit Page Table Descriptors are enabled for ARM. - "Always call constructor for kernel page tables" from Kevin Brodsky ensures that the ctor/dtor is always called for kernel pgtables, as it already is for user pgtables. This permits the addition of more functionality such as "insert hooks to protect page tables". This change does result in various architectures performing unnecesary work, but this is fixed up where it is anticipated to occur. - "Rust support for mm_struct, vm_area_struct, and mmap" from Alice Ryhl adds plumbing to permit Rust access to core MM structures. - "fix incorrectly disallowed anonymous VMA merges" from Lorenzo Stoakes takes advantage of some VMA merging opportunities which we've been missing for 15 years. - "mm/madvise: batch tlb flushes for MADV_DONTNEED and MADV_FREE" from SeongJae Park optimizes process_madvise()'s TLB flushing. Instead of flushing each address range in the provided iovec, we batch the flushing across all the iovec entries. The syscall's cost was approximately halved with a microbenchmark which was designed to load this particular operation. - "Track node vacancy to reduce worst case allocation counts" from Sidhartha Kumar makes the maple tree smarter about its node preallocation. stress-ng mmap performance increased by single-digit percentages and the amount of unnecessarily preallocated memory was dramaticelly reduced. - "mm/gup: Minor fix, cleanup and improvements" from Baoquan He removes a few unnecessary things which Baoquan noted when reading the code. - ""Enhance sysfs handling for memory hotplug in weighted interleave" from Rakie Kim "enhances the weighted interleave policy in the memory management subsystem by improving sysfs handling, fixing memory leaks, and introducing dynamic sysfs updates for memory hotplug support". Fixes things on error paths which we are unlikely to hit. - "mm/damon: auto-tune DAMOS for NUMA setups including tiered memory" from SeongJae Park introduces new DAMOS quota goal metrics which eliminate the manual tuning which is required when utilizing DAMON for memory tiering. - "mm/vmalloc.c: code cleanup and improvements" from Baoquan He provides cleanups and small efficiency improvements which Baoquan found via code inspection. - "vmscan: enforce mems_effective during demotion" from Gregory Price changes reclaim to respect cpuset.mems_effective during demotion when possible. because presently, reclaim explicitly ignores cpuset.mems_effective when demoting, which may cause the cpuset settings to violated. This is useful for isolating workloads on a multi-tenant system from certain classes of memory more consistently. - "Clean up split_huge_pmd_locked() and remove unnecessary folio pointers" from Gavin Guo provides minor cleanups and efficiency gains in in the huge page splitting and migrating code. - "Use kmem_cache for memcg alloc" from Huan Yang creates a slab cache for `struct mem_cgroup', yielding improved memory utilization. - "add max arg to swappiness in memory.reclaim and lru_gen" from Zhongkun He adds a new "max" argument to the "swappiness=" argument for memory.reclaim MGLRU's lru_gen. This directs proactive reclaim to reclaim from only anon folios rather than file-backed folios. - "kexec: introduce Kexec HandOver (KHO)" from Mike Rapoport is the first step on the path to permitting the kernel to maintain existing VMs while replacing the host kernel via file-based kexec. At this time only memblock's reserve_mem is preserved. - "mm: Introduce for_each_valid_pfn()" from David Woodhouse provides and uses a smarter way of looping over a pfn range. By skipping ranges of invalid pfns. - "sched/numa: Skip VMA scanning on memory pinned to one NUMA node via cpuset.mems" from Libo Chen removes a lot of pointless VMA scanning when a task is pinned a single NUMA mode. Dramatic performance benefits were seen in some real world cases. - "JFS: Implement migrate_folio for jfs_metapage_aops" from Shivank Garg addresses a warning which occurs during memory compaction when using JFS. - "move all VMA allocation, freeing and duplication logic to mm" from Lorenzo Stoakes moves some VMA code from kernel/fork.c into the more appropriate mm/vma.c. - "mm, swap: clean up swap cache mapping helper" from Kairui Song provides code consolidation and cleanups related to the folio_index() function. - "mm/gup: Cleanup memfd_pin_folios()" from Vishal Moola does that. - "memcg: Fix test_memcg_min/low test failures" from Waiman Long addresses some bogus failures which are being reported by the test_memcontrol selftest. - "eliminate mmap() retry merge, add .mmap_prepare hook" from Lorenzo Stoakes commences the deprecation of file_operations.mmap() in favor of the new file_operations.mmap_prepare(). The latter is more restrictive and prevents drivers from messing with things in ways which, amongst other problems, may defeat VMA merging. - "memcg: decouple memcg and objcg stocks"" from Shakeel Butt decouples the per-cpu memcg charge cache from the objcg's one. This is a step along the way to making memcg and objcg charging NMI-safe, which is a BPF requirement. - "mm/damon: minor fixups and improvements for code, tests, and documents" from SeongJae Park is yet another batch of miscellaneous DAMON changes. Fix and improve minor problems in code, tests and documents. - "memcg: make memcg stats irq safe" from Shakeel Butt converts memcg stats to be irq safe.
