<content type='text'>
When debugging issues with a workload using SysV shmem, Michal Hocko has
come up with a reproducer that shows how a series of mprotect() operations
can result in an elevated shm_nattch and thus leak of the resource.

The problem is caused by wrong assumptions in vma_merge() commit
714965ca8252 ("mm/mmap: start distinguishing if vma can be removed in
mergeability test").  The shmem vmas have a vma_ops-&gt;close callback that
decrements shm_nattch, and we remove the vma without calling it.

vma_merge() has thus historically avoided merging vma's with
vma_ops-&gt;close and commit 714965ca8252 was supposed to keep it that way. 
It relaxed the checks for vma_ops-&gt;close in can_vma_merge_after() assuming
that it is never called on a vma that would be a candidate for removal. 
However, the vma_merge() code does also use the result of this check in
the decision to remove a different vma in the merge case 7.

A robust solution would be to refactor vma_merge() code in a way that the
vma_ops-&gt;close check is only done for vma's that are actually going to be
removed, and not as part of the preliminary checks.  That would both solve
the existing bug, and also allow additional merges that the checks
currently prevent unnecessarily in some cases.

However to fix the existing bug first with a minimized risk, and for
easier stable backports, this patch only adds a vma_ops-&gt;close check to
the buggy case 7 specifically.  All other cases of vma removal are covered
by the can_vma_merge_before() check that includes the test for
vma_ops-&gt;close.

The reproducer code, adapted from Michal Hocko's code:

int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
  int segment_id;
  size_t segment_size = 20 * PAGE_SIZE;
  char * sh_mem;
  struct shmid_ds shmid_ds;

  key_t key = 0x1234;
  segment_id = shmget(key, segment_size,
                      IPC_CREAT | IPC_EXCL | S_IRUSR | S_IWUSR);
  sh_mem = (char *)shmat(segment_id, NULL, 0);

  mprotect(sh_mem + 2*PAGE_SIZE, PAGE_SIZE, PROT_NONE);

  mprotect(sh_mem + PAGE_SIZE, PAGE_SIZE, PROT_WRITE);

  mprotect(sh_mem + 2*PAGE_SIZE, PAGE_SIZE, PROT_WRITE);

  shmdt(sh_mem);

  shmctl(segment_id, IPC_STAT, &amp;shmid_ds);
  printf("nattch after shmdt(): %lu (expected: 0)\n", shmid_ds.shm_nattch);

  if (shmctl(segment_id, IPC_RMID, 0))
          printf("IPCRM failed %d\n", errno);
  return (shmid_ds.shm_nattch) ? 1 : 0;
}

After ptep_clear_flush(), if we find that src_folio is pinned we will fail
UFFDIO_MOVE and put src_folio back to src_pte entry, but the change to
src_folio-&gt;{mapping,index} is not restored in this process. This is not
what we expected, so fix it.

This can cause the rmap for that page to be invalid, possibly resulting
in memory corruption.  At least swapout+migration would no longer work,
because we might fail to locate the mappings of that folio.

<title>mm, vmscan: prevent infinite loop for costly GFP_NOIO | __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL allocations</title>

<id>803de9000f334b771afacb6ff3e78622916668b0</id>
<content type='text'>
Sven reports an infinite loop in __alloc_pages_slowpath() for costly order
__GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL allocations that are also GFP_NOIO.  Such combination
can happen in a suspend/resume context where a GFP_KERNEL allocation can
have __GFP_IO masked out via gfp_allowed_mask.

Quoting Sven:

1. try to do a "costly" allocation (order &gt; PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER)
   with __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL set.

2. page alloc's __alloc_pages_slowpath tries to get a page from the
   freelist. This fails because there is nothing free of that costly
   order.

3. page alloc tries to reclaim by calling __alloc_pages_direct_reclaim,
   which bails out because a zone is ready to be compacted; it pretends
   to have made a single page of progress.

4. page alloc tries to compact, but this always bails out early because
   __GFP_IO is not set (it's not passed by the snd allocator, and even
   if it were, we are suspending so the __GFP_IO flag would be cleared
   anyway).

5. page alloc believes reclaim progress was made (because of the
   pretense in item 3) and so it checks whether it should retry
   compaction. The compaction retry logic thinks it should try again,
   because:
    a) reclaim is needed because of the early bail-out in item 4
    b) a zonelist is suitable for compaction

6. goto 2. indefinite stall.

(end quote)

The immediate root cause is confusing the COMPACT_SKIPPED returned from
__alloc_pages_direct_compact() (step 4) due to lack of __GFP_IO to be
indicating a lack of order-0 pages, and in step 5 evaluating that in
should_compact_retry() as a reason to retry, before incrementing and
limiting the number of retries.  There are however other places that
wrongly assume that compaction can happen while we lack __GFP_IO.

To fix this, introduce gfp_compaction_allowed() to abstract the __GFP_IO
evaluation and switch the open-coded test in try_to_compact_pages() to use
it.

Also use the new helper in:
- compaction_ready(), which will make reclaim not bail out in step 3, so
  there's at least one attempt to actually reclaim, even if chances are
  small for a costly order
- in_reclaim_compaction() which will make should_continue_reclaim()
  return false and we don't over-reclaim unnecessarily
- in __alloc_pages_slowpath() to set a local variable can_compact,
  which is then used to avoid retrying reclaim/compaction for costly
  allocations (step 5) if we can't compact and also to skip the early
  compaction attempt that we do in some cases

Pull cxl fixes from Dan Williams:
 "A collection of significant fixes for the CXL subsystem.

  The largest change in this set, that bordered on "new development", is
  the fix for the fact that the location of the new qos_class attribute
  did not match the Documentation. The fix ends up deleting more code
  than it added, and it has a new unit test to backstop basic errors in
  this interface going forward. So the "red-diff" and unit test saved
  the "rip it out and try again" response.

  In contrast, the new notification path for firmware reported CXL
  errors (CXL CPER notifications) has a locking context bug that can not
  be fixed with a red-diff. Given where the release cycle stands, it is
  not comfortable to squeeze in that fix in these waning days. So, that
  receives the "back it out and try again later" treatment.

  There is a regression fix in the code that establishes memory NUMA
  nodes for platform CXL regions. That has an ack from x86 folks. There
  are a couple more fixups for Linux to understand (reassemble) CXL
  regions instantiated by platform firmware. The policy around platforms

Pull cxl fixes from Dan Williams:
 "A collection of significant fixes for the CXL subsystem.

  The largest change in this set, that bordered on "new development", is
  the fix for the fact that the location of the new qos_class attribute
  did not match the Documentation. The fix ends up deleting more code
  than it added, and it has a new unit test to backstop basic errors in
  this interface going forward. So the "red-diff" and unit test saved
  the "rip it out and try again" response.

  In contrast, the new notification path for firmware reported CXL
  errors (CXL CPER notifications) has a locking context bug that can not
  be fixed with a red-diff. Given where the release cycle stands, it is
  not comfortable to squeeze in that fix in these waning days. So, that
  receives the "back it out and try again later" treatment.

  There is a regression fix in the code that establishes memory NUMA
  nodes for platform CXL regions. That has an ack from x86 folks. There
  are a couple more fixups for Linux to understand (reassemble) CXL
  regions instantiated by platform firmware. The policy around platforms
  that do not match host-physical-address with system-physical-address
  (i.e. systems that have an address translation mechanism between the
  address range reported in the ACPI CEDT.CFMWS and endpoint decoders)
  has been softened to abort driver load rather than teardown the memory
  range (can cause system hangs). Lastly, there is a robustness /
  regression fix for cases where the driver would previously continue in
  the face of error, and a fixup for PCI error notification handling.

Architectures like powerpc add debug checks to ensure we find only devmap
PUD pte entries.  These debug checks are only done with CONFIG_DEBUG_VM. 
This patch marks the ptes used for PUD advanced test devmap pte entries so
that we don't hit on debug checks on architecture like ppc64 as below.

<title>mm: cachestat: fix folio read-after-free in cache walk</title>

<content type='text'>
In cachestat, we access the folio from the page cache's xarray to compute
its page offset, and check for its dirty and writeback flags.  However, we
do not hold a reference to the folio before performing these actions,
which means the folio can concurrently be released and reused as another
folio/page/slab.

Get around this altogether by just using xarray's existing machinery for
the folio page offsets and dirty/writeback states.

This changes behavior for tmpfs files to now always report zeroes in their
dirty and writeback counters.  This is okay as tmpfs doesn't follow
conventional writeback cache behavior: its pages get "cleaned" during
swapout, after which they're no longer resident etc.

<content type='text'>
With numa balancing on, when a numa system is running where a numa node
doesn't have its local memory so it has no managed zones, the following
oops has been observed.  It's because wakeup_kswapd() is called with a
wrong zone index, -1.  Fixed it by checking the index before calling
wakeup_kswapd().

<title>kasan: revert eviction of stack traces in generic mode</title>

This partially reverts commits cc478e0b6bdf, 63b85ac56a64, 08d7c94d9635,
a414d4286f34, and 773688a6cb24 to make use of variable-sized stack depot
records, since eviction of stack entries from stack depot forces fixed-
sized stack records.  Care was taken to retain the code cleanups by the
above commits.

Eviction was added to generic KASAN as a response to alleviating the
additional memory usage from fixed-sized stack records, but this still
uses more memory than previously.

With the re-introduction of variable-sized records for stack depot, we can
just switch back to non-evictable stack records again, and return back to
the previous performance and memory usage baseline.

Before (observed after a KASAN kernel boot):

  pools: 597
  refcounted_allocations: 17547
  refcounted_frees: 6477
  refcounted_in_use: 11070
  freelist_size: 3497
  persistent_count: 12163
  persistent_bytes: 1717008

After:

  pools: 319
  refcounted_allocations: 0
  refcounted_frees: 0
  refcounted_in_use: 0
  freelist_size: 0
  persistent_count: 29397
  persistent_bytes: 5183536

As can be seen from the counters, with a generic KASAN config, refcounted
allocations and evictions are no longer used.  Due to using variable-sized
records, I observe a reduction of 278 stack depot pools (saving 4448 KiB)
with my test setup.
