Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:

 - The series "zram: optimal post-processing target selection" from
   Sergey Senozhatsky improves zram's post-processing selection
   algorithm. This leads to improved memory savings.

 - Wei Yang has gone to town on the mapletree code, contributing several
   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 "selftests/mm: hugetlb_fault_after_madv improvements" from
   David Hildenbrand fixes this selftest for s390.

Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
 "The most significant set of changes is the per netns RTNL. The new
  behavior is disabled by default, regression risk should be contained.

  Notably the new config knob PTP_1588_CLOCK_VMCLOCK will inherit its
  default value from PTP_1588_CLOCK_KVM, as the first is intended to be
  a more reliable replacement for the latter.

  Core:

   - Started a very large, in-progress, effort to make the RTNL lock
     scope per network-namespace, thus reducing the lock contention
     significantly in the containerized use-case, comprising:
       - RCU-ified some relevant slices of the FIB control path
       - introduce basic per netns locking helpers
       - namespacified the IPv4 address hash table
       - remove rtnl_register{,_module}() in favour of
         rtnl_register_many()
       - refactor rtnl_{new,del,set}link() moving as much validation as
         possible out of RTNL lock
       - convert all phonet doit() and dumpit() handlers to RCU
       - convert IPv4 addresses manipulation to per-netns RTNL
       - convert virtual interface creation to per-netns RTNL
     the per-netns lock infrastructure is guarded by the
     CONFIG_DEBUG_NET_SMALL_RTNL knob, disabled by default ad interim.

   - Introduce NAPI suspension, to efficiently switching between busy
     polling (NAPI processing suspended) and normal processing.

   - Migrate the IPv4 routing input, output and control path from direct
     ToS usage to DSCP macros. This is a work in progress to make ECN
     handling consistent and reliable.

   - Add drop reasons support to the IPv4 rotue input path, allowing
     better introspection in case of packets drop.

   - Make FIB seqnum lockless, dropping RTNL protection for read access.

   - Make inet{,v6} addresses hashing less predicable.

   - Allow providing timestamp OPT_ID via cmsg, to correlate TX packets
     and timestamps

  Things we sprinkled into general kernel code:

   - Add small file operations for debugfs, to reduce the struct ops
     size.

   - Refactoring and optimization for the implementation of page_frag
     API, This is a preparatory work to consolidate the page_frag
     implementation.

  Netfilter:

   - Optimize set element transactions to reduce memory consumption

   - Extended netlink error reporting for attribute parser failure.

   - Make legacy xtables configs user selectable, giving users the
     option to configure iptables without enabling any other config.

   - Address a lot of false-positive RCU issues, pointed by recent CI
     improvements.

  BPF:

   - Put xsk sockets on a struct diet and add various cleanups. Overall,
     this helps to bump performance by 12% for some workloads.

   - Extend BPF selftests to increase coverage of XDP features in
     combination with BPF cpumap.

   - Optimize and homogenize bpf_csum_diff helper for all archs and also
     add a batch of new BPF selftests for it.

   - Extend netkit with an option to delegate skb-&gt;{mark,priority}
     scrubbing to its BPF program.

   - Make the bpf_get_netns_cookie() helper available also to tc(x) BPF
     programs.

  Protocols:

   - Introduces 4-tuple hash for connected udp sockets, speeding-up
     significantly connected sockets lookup.

   - Add a fastpath for some TCP timers that usually expires after
     close, the socket lock contention.

   - Add inbound and outbound xfrm state caches to speed up state
     lookups.

   - Avoid sending MPTCP advertisements on stale subflows, reducing
     risks on loosing them.

   - Make neighbours table flushing more scalable, maintaining per
     device neigh lists.

  Driver API:

   - Introduce a unified interface to configure transmission H/W
     shaping, and expose it to user-space via generic-netlink.

   - Add support for per-NAPI config via netlink. This makes napi
     configuration persistent across queues removal and re-creation.
     Requires driver updates, currently supported drivers are:
     nVidia/Mellanox mlx4 and mlx5, Broadcom brcm and Intel ice.

   - Add ethtool support for writing SFP / PHY firmware blocks.

   - Track RSS context allocation from ethtool core.

   - Implement support for mirroring to DSA CPU port, via TC mirror
     offload.

   - Consolidate FDB updates notification, to avoid duplicates on
     device-specific entries.

   - Expose DPLL clock quality level to the user-space.

   - Support master-slave PHY config via device tree.

  Tests and tooling:

   - forwarding: introduce deferred commands, to simplify the cleanup
     phase

  Drivers:

   - Updated several drivers - Amazon vNic, Google vNic, Microsoft vNic,
     Intel e1000e and Broadcom Tigon3 - to use netdev-genl to link the
     IRQs and queues to NAPI IDs, allowing busy polling and better
     introspection.

       - convert IPv4 addresses manipulation to per-netns RTNL
       - convert virtual interface creation to per-netns RTNL
     the per-netns lock infrastructure is guarded by the
     CONFIG_DEBUG_NET_SMALL_RTNL knob, disabled by default ad interim.

   - Introduce NAPI suspension, to efficiently switching between busy
     polling (NAPI processing suspended) and normal processing.

   - Migrate the IPv4 routing input, output and control path from direct
     ToS usage to DSCP macros. This is a work in progress to make ECN
     handling consistent and reliable.

   - Add drop reasons support to the IPv4 rotue input path, allowing
     better introspection in case of packets drop.

   - Make FIB seqnum lockless, dropping RTNL protection for read access.

   - Make inet{,v6} addresses hashing less predicable.

   - Allow providing timestamp OPT_ID via cmsg, to correlate TX packets
     and timestamps

  Things we sprinkled into general kernel code:

   - Add small file operations for debugfs, to reduce the struct ops
     size.

   - Refactoring and optimization for the implementation of page_frag
     API, This is a preparatory work to consolidate the page_frag
     implementation.

  Netfilter:

   - Optimize set element transactions to reduce memory consumption

   - Extended netlink error reporting for attribute parser failure.

   - Make legacy xtables configs user selectable, giving users the
     option to configure iptables without enabling any other config.

   - Address a lot of false-positive RCU issues, pointed by recent CI
     improvements.

  BPF:

   - Put xsk sockets on a struct diet and add various cleanups. Overall,
     this helps to bump performance by 12% for some workloads.

   - Extend BPF selftests to increase coverage of XDP features in
     combination with BPF cpumap.

   - Optimize and homogenize bpf_csum_diff helper for all archs and also
     add a batch of new BPF selftests for it.

   - Extend netkit with an option to delegate skb-&gt;{mark,priority}
     scrubbing to its BPF program.

   - Make the bpf_get_netns_cookie() helper available also to tc(x) BPF
     programs.

  Protocols:

   - Introduces 4-tuple hash for connected udp sockets, speeding-up
     significantly connected sockets lookup.

   - Add a fastpath for some TCP timers that usually expires after
     close, the socket lock contention.

   - Add inbound and outbound xfrm state caches to speed up state
     lookups.

   - Avoid sending MPTCP advertisements on stale subflows, reducing
     risks on loosing them.

   - Make neighbours table flushing more scalable, maintaining per
     device neigh lists.

  Driver API:

   - Introduce a unified interface to configure transmission H/W
     shaping, and expose it to user-space via generic-netlink.

   - Add support for per-NAPI config via netlink. This makes napi
     configuration persistent across queues removal and re-creation.
     Requires driver updates, currently supported drivers are:
     nVidia/Mellanox mlx4 and mlx5, Broadcom brcm and Intel ice.

   - Add ethtool support for writing SFP / PHY firmware blocks.

   - Track RSS context allocation from ethtool core.

   - Implement support for mirroring to DSA CPU port, via TC mirror
     offload.

   - Consolidate FDB updates notification, to avoid duplicates on
     device-specific entries.

   - Expose DPLL clock quality level to the user-space.

   - Support master-slave PHY config via device tree.

  Tests and tooling:

   - forwarding: introduce deferred commands, to simplify the cleanup
     phase

  Drivers:

   - Updated several drivers - Amazon vNic, Google vNic, Microsoft vNic,
     Intel e1000e and Broadcom Tigon3 - to use netdev-genl to link the
     IRQs and queues to NAPI IDs, allowing busy polling and better
     introspection.

   - Ethernet high-speed NICs:
      - nVidia/Mellanox:
         - mlx5:
           - a large refactor to implement support for cross E-Switch

page_frag test module is an out of tree module, but built
using KDIR as the main kernel tree, the mm test suite is
just getting skipped if newly added page_frag test module
fails to compile due to kernel not yet compiled.

Fix the above problem by ensuring both kernel is built first
and a newer kernel which has page_frag_cache.h is used.

RISC-V doesn't currently have the behavior of restricting the virtual
address space which virtual_address_range tests check, this will
cause the tests fail. So lets disable the whole test suite for riscv64
for now, not build it and run_vmtests.sh will skip it if it is not present.

Utilise the kselftest harmness to implement tests for the guard page
implementation.

We start by implement basic tests asserting that guard pages can be
installed, removed and that touching guard pages result in SIGSEGV.  We
also assert that, in removing guard pages from a range, non-guard pages
remain intact.

We then examine different operations on regions containing guard markers
behave to ensure correct behaviour:

* Operations over multiple VMAs operate as expected.
* Invoking MADV_GUARD_INSTALL / MADV_GUARD_REMOVE via process_madvise() in
  batches works correctly.
* Ensuring that munmap() correctly tears down guard markers.
* Using mprotect() to adjust protection bits does not in any way override
  or cause issues with guard markers.
* Ensuring that splitting and merging VMAs around guard markers causes no
  issue - i.e. that a marker which 'belongs' to one VMA can function just
  as well 'belonging' to another.
* Ensuring that madvise(..., MADV_DONTNEED) and madvise(..., MADV_FREE)
  do not remove guard markers.
* Ensuring that mlock()'ing a range containing guard markers does not
  cause issues.
* Ensuring that mremap() can move a guard range and retain guard markers.
* Ensuring that mremap() can expand a guard range and retain guard
  markers (perhaps moving the range).
* Ensuring that mremap() can shrink a guard range and retain guard markers.
* Ensuring that forking a process correctly retains guard markers.
* Ensuring that forking a VMA with VM_WIPEONFORK set behaves sanely.
* Ensuring that lazyfree simply clears guard markers.
* Ensuring that userfaultfd can co-exist with guard pages.
* Ensuring that madvise(..., MADV_POPULATE_READ) and
  madvise(..., MADV_POPULATE_WRITE) error out when encountering
  guard markers.
* Ensuring that madvise(..., MADV_COLD) and madvise(..., MADV_PAGEOUT) do
  not remove guard markers.

If any test is unable to be run due to lack of permissions, that test is
skipped.

<title>selftests/mm: Enable pkey_sighandler_tests on arm64</title>

<id>49f59573e9e06093ba23caf4ea1641b16e7e497e</id>
<content type='text'>
pkey_sighandler_tests.c makes raw syscalls using its own helper,
syscall_raw(). One of those syscalls is clone, which is problematic
as every architecture has a different opinion on the order of its
arguments.

To complete arm64 support, we therefore add an appropriate
implementation in syscall_raw(), and introduce a clone_raw() helper
that shuffles arguments as needed for each arch.

Having done this, we enable building pkey_sighandler_tests for arm64
in the Makefile.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
 "Along with the usual shower of singleton patches, notable patch series
  in this pull request are:

   - "Align kvrealloc() with krealloc()" from Danilo Krummrich. Adds
     consistency to the APIs and behaviour of these two core allocation
     functions. This also simplifies/enables Rustification.

   - "Some cleanups for shmem" from Baolin Wang. No functional changes -
     mode code reuse, better function naming, logic simplifications.

   - "mm: some small page fault cleanups" from Josef Bacik. No
     functional changes - code cleanups only.

   - "Various memory tiering fixes" from Zi Yan. A small fix and a
     little cleanup.

   - "mm/swap: remove boilerplate" from Yu Zhao. Code cleanups and
     simplifications and .text shrinkage.

   - "Kernel stack usage histogram" from Pasha Tatashin and Shakeel
     Butt. This is a feature, it adds new feilds to /proc/vmstat such as

       $ grep kstack /proc/vmstat
       kstack_1k 3
       kstack_2k 188
       kstack_4k 11391
       kstack_8k 243
       kstack_16k 0

     which tells us that 11391 processes used 4k of stack while none at
     all used 16k. Useful for some system tuning things, but
     partivularly useful for "the dynamic kernel stack project".

   - "kmemleak: support for percpu memory leak detect" from Pavel
     Tikhomirov. Teaches kmemleak to detect leaksage of percpu memory.

   - "mm: memcg: page counters optimizations" from Roman Gushchin. "3
     independent small optimizations of page counters".

   - "mm: split PTE/PMD PT table Kconfig cleanups+clarifications" from
     David Hildenbrand. Improves PTE/PMD splitlock detection, makes
     powerpc/8xx work correctly by design rather than by accident.

   - "mm: remove arch_make_page_accessible()" from David Hildenbrand.
     Some folio conversions which make arch_make_page_accessible()
     unneeded.

   - "mm, memcg: cg2 memory{.swap,}.peak write handlers" fro David
     Finkel. Cleans up and fixes our handling of the resetting of the
     cgroup/process peak-memory-use detector.

   - "Make core VMA operations internal and testable" from Lorenzo
     Stoakes. Rationalizaion and encapsulation of the VMA manipulation
     APIs. With a view to better enable testing of the VMA functions,
     even from a userspace-only harness.

   - "mm: zswap: fixes for global shrinker" from Takero Funaki. Fix
     issues in the zswap global shrinker, resulting in improved
     performance.

   - "mm: print the promo watermark in zoneinfo" from Kaiyang Zhao. Fill
     in some missing info in /proc/zoneinfo.

   - "mm: replace follow_page() by folio_walk" from David Hildenbrand.
     Code cleanups and rationalizations (conversion to folio_walk())
     resulting in the removal of follow_page().

   - "improving dynamic zswap shrinker protection scheme" from Nhat
     Pham. Some tuning to improve zswap's dynamic shrinker. Significant
     reductions in swapin and improvements in performance are shown.

   - "mm: Fix several issues with unaccepted memory" from Kirill
     Shutemov. Improvements to the new unaccepted memory feature,

   - "mm/mprotect: Fix dax puds" from Peter Xu. Implements mprotect on
     DAX PUDs. This was missing, although nobody seems to have notied
     yet.

   - "Introduce a store type enum for the Maple tree" from Sidhartha
     Kumar. Cleanups and modest performance improvements for the maple
     tree library code.

   - "memcg: further decouple v1 code from v2" from Shakeel Butt. Move
     more cgroup v1 remnants away from the v2 memcg code.

   - "memcg: initiate deprecation of v1 features" from Shakeel Butt.
     Adds various warnings telling users that memcg v1 features are
     deprecated.

   - "mm: swap: mTHP swap allocator base on swap cluster order" from
     Chris Li. Greatly improves the success rate of the mTHP swap
     allocation.

   - "mm: introduce numa_memblks" from Mike Rapoport. Moves various
     disparate per-arch implementations of numa_memblk code into generic
     code.

   - "mm: batch free swaps for zap_pte_range()" from Barry Song. Greatly
     improves the performance of munmap() of swap-filled ptes.

   - "support large folio swap-out and swap-in for shmem" from Baolin
     Wang. With this series we no longer split shmem large folios into
     simgle-page folios when swapping out shmem.

   - "mm/hugetlb: alloc/free gigantic folios" from Yu Zhao. Nice
     performance improvements and code reductions for gigantic folios.

   - "support shmem mTHP collapse" from Baolin Wang. Adds support for
     khugepaged's collapsing of shmem mTHP folios.

   - "mm: Optimize mseal checks" from Pedro Falcato. Fixes an mprotect()
     performance regression due to the addition of mseal().

   - "Increase the number of bits available in page_type" from Matthew
     Wilcox. Increases the number of bits available in page_type!

   - "Simplify the page flags a little" from Matthew Wilcox. Many legacy
     page flags are now folio flags, so the page-based flags and their
     accessors/mutators can be removed.

   - "mm: store zero pages to be swapped out in a bitmap" from Usama
     Arif. An optimization which permits us to avoid writing/reading
     zero-filled zswap pages to backing store.

   - "Avoid MAP_FIXED gap exposure" from Liam Howlett. Fixes a race
     window which occurs when a MAP_FIXED operqtion is occurring during
     an unrelated vma tree walk.

   - "mm: remove vma_merge()" from Lorenzo Stoakes. Major rotorooting of
     the vma_merge() functionality, making ot cleaner, more testable and
     better tested.

   - "misc fixups for DAMON {self,kunit} tests" from SeongJae Park.
     Minor fixups of DAMON selftests and kunit tests.

   - "mm: memory_hotplug: improve do_migrate_range()" from Kefeng Wang.

     Add support for zram run-time compression algorithm tuning.

   - "mm: Care about shadow stack guard gap when getting an unmapped

     a couple more code paths to correctly recover from the encountering
     of poisoned memry.

   - "mm: enable large folios swap-in support" from Barry Song. Support
     the swapin of mTHP memory into appropriately-sized folios, rather
     than into single-page folios"

Pull x86 memory management updates from Thomas Gleixner:

 - Make LAM enablement safe vs. kernel threads using a process mm
   temporarily as switching back to the process would not update CR3 and
   therefore not enable LAM causing faults in user space when using
   tagged pointers. Cure it by synchronizing LAM enablement via IPIs to
   all CPUs which use the related mm.

 - Cure a LAM harmless inconsistency between CR3 and the state during
   context switch. It's both confusing and prone to lead to real bugs

 - Handle alt stack handling for threads which run with a non-zero
   protection key. The non-zero key prevents the kernel to access the
   alternate stack. Cure it by temporarily enabling all protection keys
   for the alternate stack setup/restore operations.

 - Provide a EFI config table identity mapping for kexec kernel to
   prevent kexec fails because the new kernel cannot access the config
   table array

 - Use GB pages only when a full GB is mapped in the identity map as
   otherwise the CPU can speculate into reserved areas after the end of
   memory which causes malfunction on UV systems.

 - Remove the noisy and pointless SRAT table dump during boot

 - Use is_ioremap_addr() for iounmap() address range checks instead of
   high_memory. is_ioremap_addr() is more precise.

Pull x86 memory management updates from Thomas Gleixner:

 - Make LAM enablement safe vs. kernel threads using a process mm
   temporarily as switching back to the process would not update CR3 and
   therefore not enable LAM causing faults in user space when using
   tagged pointers. Cure it by synchronizing LAM enablement via IPIs to
   all CPUs which use the related mm.

 - Cure a LAM harmless inconsistency between CR3 and the state during
   context switch. It's both confusing and prone to lead to real bugs

 - Handle alt stack handling for threads which run with a non-zero
   protection key. The non-zero key prevents the kernel to access the
   alternate stack. Cure it by temporarily enabling all protection keys
   for the alternate stack setup/restore operations.

 - Provide a EFI config table identity mapping for kexec kernel to
   prevent kexec fails because the new kernel cannot access the config
   table array

 - Use GB pages only when a full GB is mapped in the identity map as
   otherwise the CPU can speculate into reserved areas after the end of
   memory which causes malfunction on UV systems.

 - Remove the noisy and pointless SRAT table dump during boot

 - Use is_ioremap_addr() for iounmap() address range checks instead of
   high_memory. is_ioremap_addr() is more precise.

Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
 "The highlights are support for Arm's "Permission Overlay Extension"
  using memory protection keys, support for running as a protected guest
  on Android as well as perf support for a bunch of new interconnect
  PMUs.

  Summary:

  ACPI:
   - Enable PMCG erratum workaround for HiSilicon HIP10 and 11
     platforms.
   - Ensure arm64-specific IORT header is covered by MAINTAINERS.

  CPU Errata:
   - Enable workaround for hardware access/dirty issue on Ampere-1A
     cores.

  Memory management:
   - Define PHYSMEM_END to fix a crash in the amdgpu driver.
   - Avoid tripping over invalid kernel mappings on the kexec() path.
   - Userspace support for the Permission Overlay Extension (POE) using
     protection keys.

  Perf and PMUs:
   - Add support for the "fixed instruction counter" extension in the
     CPU PMU architecture.
   - Extend and fix the event encodings for Apple's M1 CPU PMU.
   - Allow LSM hooks to decide on SPE permissions for physical
     profiling.
   - Add support for the CMN S3 and NI-700 PMUs.

  Confidential Computing:
   - Add support for booting an arm64 kernel as a protected guest under
     Android's "Protected KVM" (pKVM) hypervisor.

  Selftests:
   - Fix vector length issues in the SVE/SME sigreturn tests
   - Fix build warning in the ptrace tests.

  Timers:
   - Add support for PR_{G,S}ET_TSC so that 'rr' can deal with
     non-determinism arising from the architected counter.

  Miscellaneous:
   - Rework our IPI-based CPU stopping code to try NMIs if regular IPIs
     don't succeed.
   - Minor fixes and cleanups"
