2026-04-05Docs/mm/damon: document exclusivity of special-purpose modulesLiew Rui Yan
Add a section in design.rst to explain that DAMON special-purpose kernel modules (LRU_SORT, RECLAIM, STAT) run in an exclusive manner and return -EBUSY if another is already running. Update lru_sort.rst, reclaim.rst and stat.rst by adding cross-references to this exclusivity rule at the end of their respective Example sections. This change is motivated from another discussion [1].

2026-04-05zram: propagate read_from_bdev_async() errorsSergey Senozhatsky
When read_from_bdev_async() fails to chain bio, for instance fails to allocate request or bio, we need to propagate the error condition so that upper layer is aware of it. zram already does that by setting BLK_STS_IOERR ->bi_status, but only for sync reads. Change async read path to return its error status so that async errors are also handled.

2026-04-05zram: optimize LZ4 dictionary compression performancegao xu
Calling `LZ4_loadDict()` repeatedly in Zram causes significant overhead due to its internal dictionary pre-processing. This commit introduces a template stream mechanism to pre-process the dictionary only once when the dictionary is initially set or modified. It then efficiently copies this state for subsequent compressions. Verification Test Items: Test Platform: android16-6.12 1. Collect Anonymous Page Dataset 1) Apply the following patch: static bool zram_meta_alloc(struct zram *zram, u64 disksize) if (!huge_class_size) - huge_class_size = zs_huge_class_size(zram->mem_pool); + huge_class_size = 0; 2)Install multiple apps and monkey testing until SwapFree is close to 0. 3)Execute the following command to export data: dd if=/dev/block/zram0 of=/data/samples/zram_dump.img bs=4K 2. Train Dictionary Since LZ4 does not have a dedicated dictionary training tool, the zstd tool can be used for training[1]. The command is as follows: zstd --train /data/samples/* --split=4096 --maxdict=64KB -o /vendor/etc/dict_data 3. Test Code adb shell "dd if=/data/samples/zram_dump.img of=/dev/test_pattern bs=4096 count=131072 conv=fsync" adb shell "swapoff /dev/block/zram0" adb shell "echo 1 > /sys/block/zram0/reset" adb shell "echo lz4 > /sys/block/zram0/comp_algorithm" adb shell "echo dict=/vendor/etc/dict_data > /sys/block/zram0/algorithm_params" adb shell "echo 6G > /sys/block/zram0/disksize" echo "Start Compression" adb shell "taskset 80 dd if=/dev/test_pattern of=/dev/block/zram0 bs=4096 count=131072 conv=fsync" echo. echo "Start Decompression" adb shell "taskset 80 dd if=/dev/block/zram0 of=/dev/output_result bs=4096 count=131072 conv=fsync" echo "mm_stat:" adb shell "cat /sys/block/zram0/mm_stat" echo. Note: To ensure stable test results, it is best to lock the CPU frequency before executing the test. LZ4 supports dictionaries up to 64KB. Below are the test results for compression rates at various dictionary sizes: dict_size base patch 4 KB 156M/s 219M/s 8 KB 136M/s 217M/s 16KB 98M/s 214M/s 32KB 66M/s 225M/s 64KB 38M/s 224M/s When an LZ4 compression dictionary is enabled, compression speed is negatively impacted by the dictionary's size; larger dictionaries result in slower compression. This patch eliminates the influence of dictionary size on compression speed, ensuring consistent performance regardless of dictionary scale.

2026-04-05mm/khugepaged: unify khugepaged and madv_collapse with collapse_single_pmd()Nico Pache
The khugepaged daemon and madvise_collapse have two different implementations that do almost the same thing. Create collapse_single_pmd to increase code reuse and create an entry point to these two users. Refactor madvise_collapse and collapse_scan_mm_slot to use the new collapse_single_pmd function. To help reduce confusion around the mmap_locked variable, we rename mmap_locked to lock_dropped in the collapse_scan_mm_slot() function, and remove the redundant mmap_locked in madvise_collapse(); this further unifies the code readiblity. the SCAN_PTE_MAPPED_HUGEPAGE enum is no longer reachable in the madvise_collapse() function, so we drop it from the list of "continuing" enums. This introduces a minor behavioral change that is most likely an undiscovered bug. The current implementation of khugepaged tests collapse_test_exit_or_disable() before calling collapse_pte_mapped_thp, but we weren't doing it in the madvise_collapse case. By unifying these two callers madvise_collapse now also performs this check. We also modify the return value to be SCAN_ANY_PROCESS which properly indicates that this process is no longer valid to operate on. By moving the madvise_collapse writeback-retry logic into the helper function we can also avoid having to revalidate the VMA. We guard the khugepaged_pages_collapsed variable to ensure its only incremented for khugepaged. As requested we also convert a VM_BUG_ON to a VM_WARN_ON.

2026-04-05mm: consolidate anonymous folio PTE mapping into helpersNico Pache
Patch series "mm: khugepaged cleanups and mTHP prerequisites", v4. The following series contains cleanups and prerequisites for my work on khugepaged mTHP support [1]. These have been separated out to ease review. The first patch in the series refactors the page fault folio to pte mapping and follows a similar convention as defined by map_anon_folio_pmd_(no)pf(). This not only cleans up the current implementation of do_anonymous_page(), but will allow for reuse later in the khugepaged mTHP implementation. The second patch adds a small is_pmd_order() helper to check if an order is the PMD order. This check is open-coded in a number of places. This patch aims to clean this up and will be used more in the khugepaged mTHP work. The third patch also adds a small DEFINE for (HPAGE_PMD_NR - 1) which is used often across the khugepaged code. The fourth and fifth patch come from the khugepaged mTHP patchset [1]. These two patches include the rename of function prefixes, and the unification of khugepaged and madvise_collapse via a new collapse_single_pmd function. Patch 1: refactor do_anonymous_page into map_anon_folio_pte_(no)pf Patch 2: add is_pmd_order helper Patch 3: Add define for (HPAGE_PMD_NR - 1) Patch 4: Refactor/rename hpage_collapse Patch 5: Refactoring to combine madvise_collapse and khugepaged A big thanks to everyone that has reviewed, tested, and participated in the development process. This patch (of 5): The anonymous page fault handler in do_anonymous_page() open-codes the sequence to map a newly allocated anonymous folio at the PTE level: - construct the PTE entry - add rmap - add to LRU - set the PTEs - update the MMU cache. Introduce two helpers to consolidate this duplicated logic, mirroring the existing map_anon_folio_pmd_nopf() pattern for PMD-level mappings: map_anon_folio_pte_nopf(): constructs the PTE entry, takes folio references, adds anon rmap and LRU. This function also handles the uffd_wp that can occur in the pf variant. The future khugepaged mTHP code calls this to handle mapping the new collapsed mTHP to its folio. map_anon_folio_pte_pf(): extends the nopf variant to handle MM_ANONPAGES counter updates, and mTHP fault allocation statistics for the page fault path. The zero-page read path in do_anonymous_page() is also untangled from the shared setpte label, since it does not allocate a folio and should not share the same mapping sequence as the write path. We can now leave nr_pages undeclared at the function intialization, and use the single page update_mmu_cache function to handle the zero page update. This refactoring will also help reduce code duplication between mm/memory.c and mm/khugepaged.c, and provides a clean API for PTE-level anonymous folio mapping that can be reused by future callers (like khugpeaged mTHP support) Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20260325114022.444081-1-npache@redhat.com Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20260325114022.444081-2-npache@redhat.com Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260122192841.128719-1-npache@redhat.com Signed-off-by: Nico Pache <npache@redhat.com> Suggested-by: Lorenzo Stoakes (Oracle) <ljs@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Lorenzo Stoakes (Oracle) <ljs@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Dev Jain <dev.jain@arm.com> Reviewed-by: Lance Yang <lance.yang@linux.dev> Acked-by: David Hildenbrand (Arm) <david@kernel.org> Cc: Alistair Popple <apopple@nvidia.com> Cc: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange@redhat.com> Cc: Anshuman Khandual <anshuman.khandual@arm.com> Cc: Baolin Wang <baolin.wang@linux.alibaba.com> Cc: Barry Song <baohua@kernel.org> Cc: Brendan Jackman <jackmanb@google.com> Cc: Byungchul Park <byungchul@sk.com> Cc: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Cc: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Cc: Gregory Price <gourry@gourry.net> Cc: "Huang, Ying" <ying.huang@linux.alibaba.com> Cc: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Cc: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Cc: Jann Horn <jannh@google.com> Cc: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Cc: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net> Cc: Joshua Hahn <joshua.hahnjy@gmail.com> Cc: Kefeng Wang <wangkefeng.wang@huawei.com> Cc: Liam Howlett <liam.howlett@oracle.com> Cc: "Masami Hiramatsu (Google)" <mhiramat@kernel.org> Cc: Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com> Cc: Matthew Brost <matthew.brost@intel.com> Cc: Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) <willy@infradead.org> Cc: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com> Cc: Mike Rapoport <rppt@kernel.org> Cc: Nanyong Sun <sunnanyong@huawei.com> Cc: Pedro Falcato <pfalcato@suse.de> Cc: Peter Xu <peterx@redhat.com> Cc: Rafael Aquini <raquini@redhat.com> Cc: Rakie Kim <rakie.kim@sk.com> Cc: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@infradead.org> Cc: Ryan Roberts <ryan.roberts@arm.com> Cc: Shivank Garg <shivankg@amd.com> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Suren Baghdasaryan <surenb@google.com> Cc: Takashi Iwai (SUSE) <tiwai@suse.de> Cc: Thomas Hellström <thomas.hellstrom@linux.intel.com> Cc: Usama Arif <usamaarif642@gmail.com> Cc: Vishal Moola (Oracle) <vishal.moola@gmail.com> Cc: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz> Cc: Wei Yang <richard.weiyang@gmail.com> Cc: Will Deacon <will@kernel.org> Cc: Yang Shi <yang@os.amperecomputing.com> Cc: Zach O'Keefe <zokeefe@google.com> Cc: Zi Yan <ziy@nvidia.com> Cc: Lorenzo Stoakes <lorenzo.stoakes@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>
2026-04-05mm/userfaultfd: fix hugetlb fault mutex hash calculationJianhui Zhou
In mfill_atomic_hugetlb(), linear_page_index() is used to calculate the page index for hugetlb_fault_mutex_hash(). However, linear_page_index() returns the index in PAGE_SIZE units, while hugetlb_fault_mutex_hash() expects the index in huge page units. This mismatch means that different addresses within the same huge page can produce different hash values, leading to the use of different mutexes for the same huge page. This can cause races between faulting threads, which can corrupt the reservation map and trigger the BUG_ON in resv_map_release(). Fix this by introducing hugetlb_linear_page_index(), which returns the page index in huge page granularity, and using it in place of linear_page_index().

2026-04-05mm/damon/lru_sort: respect addr_unit on default monitoring region setupSeongJae Park
In the past, damon_set_region_biggest_system_ram_default(), which is the core function for setting the default monitoring target region of DAMON_LRU_SORT, didn't support addr_unit. Hence DAMON_LRU_SORT was silently ignoring the user input for addr_unit when the user doesn't explicitly set the monitoring target regions, and therefore the default target region is being used.

2026-04-05mm/damon/reclaim: respect addr_unit on default monitoring region setupSeongJae Park
In the past, damon_set_region_biggest_system_ram_default(), which is the core function for setting the default monitoring target region of DAMON_RECLAIM, didn't support addr_unit. Hence DAMON_RECLAIM was silently ignoring the user input for addr_unit when the user doesn't explicitly set the monitoring target regions, and therefore the default target region is being used. No real problem from that ignorance was reported so far. But, the implicit rule is only making things confusing. Also, the default target region setup function is updated to support addr_unit. Hence there is no reason to keep ignoring it. Respect the user-passed addr_unit for the default target monitoring region use case.

2026-04-05mm/damon/core: support addr_unit on damon_find_biggest_system_ram()SeongJae Park
damon_find_biggest_system_ram() sets an 'unsigned long' variable with 'resource_size_t' value. This is fundamentally wrong. On environments such as ARM 32 bit machines having LPAE (Large Physical Address Extensions), which DAMON supports, the size of 'unsigned long' may be smaller than that of 'resource_size_t'. It is safe, though, since we restrict the walk to be done only up to ULONG_MAX. DAMON supports the address size gap using 'addr_unit'. We didn't add the support to the function, just to make the initial support change small. Now the support is reasonably settled. This kind of gap is only making the code inconsistent and easy to be confused. Add the support of 'addr_unit' to the function, by letting callers pass the 'addr_unit' and handling it in the function. All callers are passing 'addr_unit' 1, though, to keep the old behavior.

2026-04-05mm/damon/core: fix wrong end address assignment on walk_system_ram()SeongJae Park
Patch series "mm/damon: support addr_unit on default monitoring targets for modules". DAMON_RECLAIM and DAMON_LRU_SORT support 'addr_unit' parameters only when the monitoring target address range is explicitly set. This was intentional for making the initial 'addr_unit' support change small. Now 'addr_unit' support is being quite stabilized. Having the corner case of the support is only making the code inconsistent with implicit rules. The inconsistency makes it easy to confuse [1] readers. After all, there is no real reason to keep 'addr_unit' support incomplete. Add the support for the case to improve the readability and more completely support 'addr_unit'. This series is constructed with five patches. The first one (patch 1) fixes a small bug that mistakenly assigns inclusive end address to open end address, which was found from this work. The second and third ones (patches 2 and 3) extend the default monitoring target setting functions in the core layer one by one, to support the 'addr_unit' while making no visible changes. The final two patches (patches 4 and 5) update DAMON_RECLAIM and DAMON_LRU_SORT to support 'addr_unit' for the default monitoring target address ranges, by passing the user input to the core functions. This patch (of 5): 'struct damon_addr_range' and 'struct resource' represent different types of address ranges. 'damon_addr_range' is for end-open ranges ([start, end)). 'resource' is for fully-closed ranges ([start, end]). But walk_system_ram() is assigning resource->end to damon_addr_range->end without the inclusiveness adjustment. As a result, the function returns an address range that is missing the last one byte. The function is being used to find and set the biggest system ram as the default monitoring target for DAMON_RECLAIM and DAMON_LRU_SORT. Missing the last byte of the big range shouldn't be a real problem for the real use cases. That said, the loss is definitely an unintended behavior. Do the correct adjustment.

2026-04-05mm: abstract reading sysctl_max_map_count, and READ_ONCE()Lorenzo Stoakes (Oracle)
Concurrent reads and writes of sysctl_max_map_count are possible, so we should READ_ONCE() and WRITE_ONCE(). The sysctl procfs logic already enforces WRITE_ONCE(), so abstract the read side with get_sysctl_max_map_count(). While we're here, also move the field to mm/internal.h and add the getter there since only mm interacts with it, there's no need for anybody else to have access. Finally, update the VMA userland tests to reflect the change.

2026-04-05mm/mremap: correct invalid map count checkLorenzo Stoakes (Oracle)
Patch series "mm: improve map count checks". Firstly, in mremap(), it appears that our map count checks have been overly conservative - there is simply no reason to require that we have headroom of 4 mappings prior to moving the VMA, we only need headroom of 2 VMAs since commit 659ace584e7a ("mmap: don't return ENOMEM when mapcount is temporarily exceeded in munmap()"). Likely the original headroom of 4 mappings was a mistake, and 3 was actually intended. Next, we access sysctl_max_map_count in a number of places without being all that careful about how we do so. We introduce a simple helper that READ_ONCE()'s the field (get_sysctl_max_map_count()) to ensure that the field is accessed correctly. The WRITE_ONCE() side is already handled by the sysctl procfs code in proc_int_conv(). We also move this field to internal.h as there's no reason for anybody else to access it outside of mm. Unfortunately we have to maintain the extern variable, as mmap.c implements the procfs code. Finally, we are accessing current->mm->map_count without holding the mmap write lock, which is also not correct, so this series ensures the lock is head before we access it. We also abstract the check to a helper function, and add ASCII diagrams to explain why we're doing what we're doing. This patch (of 3): We currently check to see, if on moving a VMA when doing mremap(), if it might violate the sys.vm.max_map_count limit. This was introduced in the mists of time prior to 2.6.12. At this point in time, as now, the move_vma() operation would copy the VMA (+1 mapping if not merged), then potentially split the source VMA upon unmap. Prior to commit 659ace584e7a ("mmap: don't return ENOMEM when mapcount is temporarily exceeded in munmap()"), a VMA split would check whether mm->map_count >= sysctl_max_map_count prior to a split before it ran. On unmap of the source VMA, if we are moving a partial VMA, we might split the VMA twice. This would mean, on invocation of split_vma() (as was), we'd check whether mm->map_count >= sysctl_max_map_count with a map count elevated by one, then again with a map count elevated by two, ending up with a map count elevated by three. At this point we'd reduce the map count on unmap. At the start of move_vma(), there was a check that has remained throughout mremap()'s history of mm->map_count >= sysctl_max_map_count - 3 (which implies mm->mmap_count + 4 > sysctl_max_map_count - that is, we must have headroom for 4 additional mappings). After mm->map_count is elevated by 3, it is decremented by one once the unmap completes. The mmap write lock is held, so nothing else will observe mm->map_count > sysctl_max_map_count. It appears this check was always incorrect - it should have either be one of 'mm->map_count > sysctl_max_map_count - 3' or 'mm->map_count >= sysctl_max_map_count - 2'. After commit 659ace584e7a ("mmap: don't return ENOMEM when mapcount is temporarily exceeded in munmap()"), the map count check on split is eliminated in the newly introduced __split_vma(), which the unmap path uses, and has that path check whether mm->map_count >= sysctl_max_map_count. This is valid since, net, an unmap can only cause an increase in map count of 1 (split both sides, unmap middle). Since we only copy a VMA and (if MREMAP_DONTUNMAP is not set) unmap afterwards, the maximum number of additional mappings that will actually be subject to any check will be 2. Therefore, update the check to assert this corrected value. Additionally, update the check introduced by commit ea2c3f6f5545 ("mm,mremap: bail out earlier in mremap_to under map pressure") to account for this. While we're here, clean up the comment prior to that.

2026-04-05mm: migrate: requeue destination folio on deferred split queueUsama Arif
During folio migration, __folio_migrate_mapping() removes the source folio from the deferred split queue, but the destination folio is never re-queued. This causes underutilized THPs to escape the shrinker after NUMA migration, since they silently drop off the deferred split list. Fix this by recording whether the source folio was on the deferred split queue and its partially mapped state before move_to_new_folio() unqueues it, and re-queuing the destination folio after a successful migration if it was. By the time migrate_folio_move() runs, partially mapped folios without a pin have already been split by migrate_pages_batch(). So only two cases remain on the deferred list at this point: 1. Partially mapped folios with a pin (split failed). 2. Fully mapped but potentially underused folios. The recorded partially_mapped state is forwarded to deferred_split_folio() so that the destination folio is correctly re-queued in both cases. Because THPs are removed from the deferred_list, THP shinker cannot split the underutilized THPs in time. As a result, users will show less free memory than before.

2026-04-05selftest: memcg: skip memcg_sock test if address family not supportedWaiman Long
The test_memcg_sock test in memcontrol.c sets up an IPv6 socket and send data over it to consume memory and verify that memory.stat.sock and memory.current values are close. On systems where IPv6 isn't enabled or not configured to support SOCK_STREAM, the test_memcg_sock test always fails. When the socket() call fails, there is no way we can test the memory consumption and verify the above claim. I believe it is better to just skip the test in this case instead of reporting a test failure hinting that there may be something wrong with the memcg code.

Refactor enabled_store() to use a new set_global_enabled_mode() helper. Introduce a separate enum global_enabled_mode and global_enabled_mode_strings[], mirroring the anon_enabled_mode pattern from the previous commit. A separate enum is necessary because the global THP setting does not support "inherit", only "always", "madvise", and "never". Reusing anon_enabled_mode would leave a NULL gap in the string array, causing sysfs_match_string() to stop early and fail to match entries after the gap. The helper uses the same loop pattern as set_anon_enabled_mode(), iterating over an array of flag bit positions and using test_and_set_bit()/test_and_clear_bit() to track whether the state actually changed.

2026-04-05mm: khugepaged: export set_recommended_min_free_kbytes()Breno Leitao
Patch series "mm: thp: reduce unnecessary start_stop_khugepaged()", v7. Writing to /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled causes start_stop_khugepaged() called independent of any change. start_stop_khugepaged() SPAMs the printk ring buffer overflow with the exact same message, even when nothing changes. For instance, if you have a custom vm.min_free_kbytes, just touching /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled causes a printk message. Example: # sysctl -w vm.min_free_kbytes=112382 # for i in $(seq 100); do echo never > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled ; done and you have 100 WARN messages like the following, which is pretty dull: khugepaged: min_free_kbytes is not updated to 112381 because user defined value 112382 is preferred A similar message shows up when setting thp to "always": # for i in $(seq 100); do # echo 1024 > /proc/sys/vm/min_free_kbytes # echo always > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled # done And then, we have 100 messages like: khugepaged: raising min_free_kbytes from 1024 to 67584 to help transparent hugepage allocations This is more common when you have a configuration management system that writes the THP configuration without an extra read, assuming that nothing will happen if there is no change in the configuration, but it prints these annoying messages. For instance, at Meta's fleet, ~10K servers were producing 3.5M of these messages per day. Fix this by making the sysfs _store helpers easier to digest and ratelimiting the message.

Once the goal is achieved, it sets the quota zero, so effectively makes the scheme be deactivated.

2026-04-05mm/damon/core: allow quota goals set zero effective size quotaSeongJae Park
User-explicit quotas (size and time quotas) having zero value means the quotas are unset. And, effective size quota is set as the minimum value of the explicit quotas. When quota goals are set, the goal-based quota tuner can make it lower. But the existing only single tuner never sets the effective size quota zero. Because of the fact, DAMON core assumes zero effective quota means the user has set no quota. Multiple tuners are now allowed, though. In the future, some tuners might want to set a zero effective size quota. There is no reason to restrict that. Meanwhile, because of the current implementation, it will only deactivate all quotas and make the scheme work at its full speed. Introduce a dedicated function for checking if no quota is set. The function checks the fact by showing if the user-set explicit quotas are zero and no goal is installed. It is decoupled from zero effective quota, and hence allows future tuners set zero effective quota for intentionally deactivating the scheme by a purpose.

2026-04-05mm/damon/core: introduce damos_quota_goal_tunerSeongJae Park
Patch series "mm/damon: support multiple goal-based quota tuning algorithms". Aim-oriented DAMOS quota auto-tuning uses a single tuning algorithm. The algorithm is designed to find a quota value that should be consistently kept for achieving the aimed goal for long term. It is useful and reliable at automatically operating systems that have dynamic environments in the long term. As always, however, no single algorithm fits all. When the environment has static characteristics or there are control towers in not only the kernel space but also the user space, the algorithm shows some limitations. In such environments, users want kernel work in a more short term deterministic way. Actually there were at least two reports [1,2] of such cases. Extend DAMOS quotas goal to support multiple quota tuning algorithms that users can select. Keep the current algorithm as the default one, to not break the old users. Also give it a name, "consist", as it is designed to "consistently" apply the DAMOS action. And introduce a new tuning algorithm, namely "temporal". It is designed to apply the DAMOS action only temporally, in a deterministic way. In more detail, as long as the goal is under-achieved, it uses the maximum quota available. Once the goal is over-achieved, it sets the quota zero. Tests ===== I confirmed the feature is working as expected using the latest version of DAMON user-space tool, like below. $ # start DAMOS for reclaiming memory aiming 30% free memory $ sudo ./damo/damo start --damos_action pageout \ --damos_quota_goal_tuner temporal \ --damos_quota_goal node_mem_free_bp 30% 0 \ --damos_quota_interval 1s \ --damos_quota_space 100M Note that >=3.1.8 version of DAMON user-space tool supports this feature (--damos_quota_goal_tuner). As expected, DAMOS stops reclaiming memory as soon as the goal amount of free memory is made. When 'consist' tuner is used, the reclamation was continued even after the goal amount of free memory is made, resulting in more than goal amount of free memory, as expected. Patch Sequence ============== First four patches implement the features. Patch 1 extends core API to allow multiple tuners and make the current tuner as the default and only available tuner, namely 'consist'. Patch 2 allows future tuners setting zero effective quota. Patch 3 introduces the second tuner, namely 'temporal'. Patch 4 further extends DAMON sysfs API to let users use that. Three following patches (patches 5-7) update design, usage, and ABI documents, respectively. Final four patches (patches 8-11) are for adding tests. The eighth patch (patch 8) extends the kunit test for online parameters commit for validating the goal_tuner. The ninth and the tenth patches (patches 9-10) extend the testing-purpose DAMON sysfs control helper and DAMON status dumping tool to support the newly added feature. The final eleventh one (patch 11) extends the existing online commit selftest to cover the new feature. This patch (of 11): DAMOS quota goal feature utilizes a single feedback loop based algorithm for automatic tuning of the effective quota. It is useful in dynamic environments that operate systems with only kernels in the long term. But, no one fits all. It is not very easy to control in environments having more controlled characteristics and user-space control towers. We actually got multiple reports [1,2] of use cases that the algorithm is not optimal. Introduce a new field of 'struct damos_quotas', namely 'goal_tuner'. It specifies what tuning algorithm the given scheme should use, and allows DAMON API callers to set it as they want. Nonetheless, this commit introduces no new tuning algorithm but only the interface. This commit hence makes no behavioral change. A new algorithm will be added by the following commit.

2026-04-05mm/swap: strengthen locking assertions and invariants in cluster allocationHui Zhu
swap_cluster_alloc_table() requires several locks to be held by its callers: ci->lock, the per-CPU swap_cluster lock, and, for non-solid-state devices (non-SWP_SOLIDSTATE), the si->global_cluster_lock. While most call paths (e.g., via cluster_alloc_swap_entry() or alloc_swap_scan_list()) correctly acquire these locks before invocation, the path through swap_reclaim_work() -> swap_reclaim_full_clusters() -> isolate_lock_cluster() is distinct. This path operates exclusively on si->full_clusters, where the swap allocation tables are guaranteed to be already allocated. Consequently, isolate_lock_cluster() should never trigger a call to swap_cluster_alloc_table() for these clusters. Strengthen the locking and state assertions to formalize these invariants: 1. Add a lockdep_assert_held() for si->global_cluster_lock in swap_cluster_alloc_table() for non-SWP_SOLIDSTATE devices. 2. Reorder existing lockdep assertions in swap_cluster_alloc_table() to match the actual lock acquisition order (per-CPU lock, then global lock, then cluster lock). 3. Add a VM_WARN_ON_ONCE() in isolate_lock_cluster() to ensure that table allocations are only attempted for clusters being isolated from the free list. Attempting to allocate a table for a cluster from other lists (like the full list during reclaim) indicates a violation of subsystem invariants. These changes ensure locking consistency and help catch potential synchronization or logic issues during development.

2026-04-05mm: prevent droppable mappings from being lockedAnthony Yznaga
Droppable mappings must not be lockable. There is a check for VMAs with VM_DROPPABLE set in mlock_fixup() along with checks for other types of unlockable VMAs which ensures this when calling mlock()/mlock2(). For mlockall(MCL_FUTURE), the check for unlockable VMAs is different. In apply_mlockall_flags(), if the flags parameter has MCL_FUTURE set, the current task's mm's default VMA flag field mm->def_flags has VM_LOCKED applied to it. VM_LOCKONFAULT is also applied if MCL_ONFAULT is also set. When these flags are set as default in this manner they are cleared in __mmap_complete() for new mappings that do not support mlock. A check for VM_DROPPABLE in __mmap_complete() is missing resulting in droppable mappings created with VM_LOCKED set. To fix this and reduce that chance of similar bugs in the future, introduce and use vma_supports_mlock().

We have two functions that accept algo= and priority= params - algorithm_params_store() and recompress_store(). This patch unifies and hardens handling of those parameters. There are 4 possible cases: - only priority= provided [recommended] We need to verify that provided priority value is within permitted range for each particular function. - both algo= and priority= provided We cannot prioritize one over another. All we should do is to verify that zram is configured in the way that user-space expects it to be. Namely that zram indeed has compressor algo= setup at given priority=. - only algo= provided [not recommended] We should lookup priority in compressors list. - none provided [not recommended] Just use function's defaults.

2026-04-05zram: remove chained recompressionSergey Senozhatsky
Chained recompression has unpredictable behavior and is not useful in practice. First, systems usually configure just one alternative recompression algorithm, which has slower compression/decompression but better compression ratio. A single alternative algorithm doesn't need chaining. Second, even with multiple recompression algorithms, chained recompression is suboptimal. If a lower priority algorithm succeeds, the page is never attempted with a higher priority algorithm, leading to worse memory savings. If a lower priority algorithm fails, the page is still attempted with a higher priority algorithm, wasting resources on the failed lower priority attempt. In either case, the system would be better off targeting a specific priority directly. Chained recompression also significantly complicates the code. Remove it.

2026-04-05zram: do not permit params change after initSergey Senozhatsky
Patch series "zram: recompression cleanups and tweaks", v2. This series is a somewhat random mix of fixups, recompression cleanups and improvements partly based on internal conversations. A few patches in the series remove unexpected or confusing behaviour, e.g. auto correction of bad priority= param for recompression, which should have always been just an error. Then it also removes "chain recompression" which has a tricky, unexpected and confusing behaviour at times. We also unify and harden the handling of algo/priority params. There is also an addition of missing device lock in algorithm_params_store() which previously permitted modification of algo params while the device is active. This patch (of 6): First, algorithm_params_store(), like any sysfs handler, should grab device lock. Second, like any write() sysfs handler, it should grab device lock in exclusive mode. Third, it should not permit change of algos' parameters after device init, as this doesn't make sense - we cannot compress with one C/D dict and then just change C/D dict to a different one, for example. Another thing to notice is that algorithm_params_store() accesses device's ->comp_algs for algo priority lookup, which should be protected by device lock in exclusive mode in general.

2026-04-05kho: drop restriction on maximum page orderPratyush Yadav
KHO currently restricts the maximum order of a restored page to the maximum order supported by the buddy allocator. While this works fine for much of the data passed across kexec, it is possible to have pages larger than MAX_PAGE_ORDER. For one, it is possible to get a larger order when using kho_preserve_pages() if the number of pages is large enough, since it tries to combine multiple aligned 0-order preservations into one higher order preservation. For another, upcoming support for hugepages can have gigantic hugepages being preserved over KHO. There is no real reason for this limit. The KHO preservation machinery can handle any page order. Remove this artificial restriction on max page order.

2026-04-05kho: make sure preservations do not span multiple NUMA nodesPratyush Yadav (Google)
The KHO restoration machinery is not capable of dealing with preservations that span multiple NUMA nodes. kho_preserve_folio() guarantees the preservation will only span one NUMA node since folios can't span multiple nodes. This leaves kho_preserve_pages(). While semantically kho_preserve_pages() only deals with 0-order pages, so all preservations should be single page only, in practice it combines preservations to higher orders for efficiency. This can result in a preservation spanning multiple nodes. Break up the preservations into a smaller order if that happens.

So let's move it to vma.c and add some proper kerneldoc. To make vma tests happy, add a simple vma_kernel_pagesize() stub in tools/testing/vma/include/custom.h.
