Above the while() loop in wait_sb_inodes(), we document that we must wait
for all pages under writeback for data integrity. Consequently, if a
mapping, like fuse, traditionally does not have data integrity semantics,
there is no need to wait at all; we can simply skip these inodes.
This restores fuse back to prior behavior where syncs are no-ops. This
fixes a user regression where if a system is running a faulty fuse server
that does not reply to issued write requests, this causes wait_sb_inodes()
to wait forever.

Pull KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"ARM:
- Support for userspace handling of synchronous external aborts
(SEAs), allowing the VMM to potentially handle the abort in a
non-fatal manner
- Large rework of the VGIC's list register handling with the goal of
supporting more active/pending IRQs than available list registers
in hardware. In addition, the VGIC now supports EOImode==1 style
deactivations for IRQs which may occur on a separate vCPU than the
one that acked the IRQ
- Support for FEAT_XNX (user / privileged execute permissions) and
FEAT_HAF (hardware update to the Access Flag) in the software page
table walkers and shadow MMU
- Allow page table destruction to reschedule, fixing long
need_resched latencies observed when destroying a large VM
- Minor fixes to KVM and selftests
Loongarch:
- Get VM PMU capability from HW GCFG register
- Add AVEC basic support
- Use 64-bit register definition for EIOINTC
- Add KVM timer test cases for tools/selftests
RISC/V:
- SBI message passing (MPXY) support for KVM guest
- Give a new, more specific error subcode for the case when in-kernel
AIA virtualization fails to allocate IMSIC VS-file
- Support KVM_DIRTY_LOG_INITIALLY_SET, enabling dirty log gradually
in small chunks
- Fix guest page fault within HLV* instructions
- Flush VS-stage TLB after VCPU migration for Andes cores
s390:
- Always allocate ESCA (Extended System Control Area), instead of
starting with the basic SCA and converting to ESCA with the
addition of the 65th vCPU. The price is increased number of exits
(and worse performance) on z10 and earlier processor; ESCA was
introduced by z114/z196 in 2010
- VIRT_XFER_TO_GUEST_WORK support
- Operation exception forwarding support
- Cleanups
x86:
- Skip the costly "zap all SPTEs" on an MMIO generation wrap if MMIO
SPTE caching is disabled, as there can't be any relevant SPTEs to
zap
- Relocate a misplaced export
- Fix an async #PF bug where KVM would clear the completion queue
when the guest transitioned in and out of paging mode, e.g. when
handling an SMI and then returning to paged mode via RSM
- Leave KVM's user-return notifier registered even when disabling
virtualization, as long as kvm.ko is loaded. On reboot/shutdown,
keeping the notifier registered is ok; the kernel does not use the
MSRs and the callback will run cleanly and restore host MSRs if the
CPU manages to return to userspace before the system goes down
- Use the checked version of {get,put}_user()
- Fix a long-lurking bug where KVM's lack of catch-up logic for
periodic APIC timers can result in a hard lockup in the host
- Revert the periodic kvmclock sync logic now that KVM doesn't use a
clocksource that's subject to NTP corrections
- Clean up KVM's handling of MMIO Stale Data and L1TF, and bury the
latter behind CONFIG_CPU_MITIGATIONS
- Context switch XCR0, XSS, and PKRU outside of the entry/exit fast
path; the only reason they were handled in the fast path was to
paper of a bug in the core #MC code, and that has long since been
fixed
- Add emulator support for AVX MOV instructions, to play nice with
emulated devices whose guest drivers like to access PCI BARs with
large multi-byte instructions
x86 (AMD):
- Fix a few missing "VMCB dirty" bugs
- Fix the worst of KVM's lack of EFER.LMSLE emulation
- Add AVIC support for addressing 4k vCPUs in x2AVIC mode
- Fix incorrect handling of selective CR0 writes when checking
intercepts during emulation of L2 instructions
- Fix a currently-benign bug where KVM would clobber SPEC_CTRL[63:32]
on VMRUN and #VMEXIT
- Fix a bug where KVM corrupt the guest code stream when re-injecting
a soft interrupt if the guest patched the underlying code after the
VM-Exit, e.g. when Linux patches code with a temporary INT3
- Add KVM_X86_SNP_POLICY_BITS to advertise supported SNP policy bits
to userspace, and extend KVM "support" to all policy bits that
don't require any actual support from KVM
x86 (Intel):
- Use the root role from kvm_mmu_page to construct EPTPs instead of
the current vCPU state, partly as worthwhile cleanup, but mostly to
pave the way for tracking per-root TLB flushes, and elide EPT
flushes on pCPU migration if the root is clean from a previous
flush
- Add a few missing nested consistency checks
- Rip out support for doing "early" consistency checks via hardware
as the functionality hasn't been used in years and is no longer
useful in general; replace it with an off-by-default module param
to WARN if hardware fails a check that KVM does not perform
- Fix a currently-benign bug where KVM would drop the guest's
SPEC_CTRL[63:32] on VM-Enter
- Misc cleanups
- Overhaul the TDX code to address systemic races where KVM (acting
on behalf of userspace) could inadvertantly trigger lock contention
in the TDX-Module; KVM was either working around these in weird,
ugly ways, or was simply oblivious to them (though even Yan's
devilish selftests could only break individual VMs, not the host
kernel)
- Fix a bug where KVM could corrupt a vCPU's cpu_list when freeing a
TDX vCPU, if creating said vCPU failed partway through
- Fix a few sparse warnings (bad annotation, 0 != NULL)
- Use struct_size() to simplify copying TDX capabilities to userspace
- Fix a bug where TDX would effectively corrupt user-return MSR
values if the TDX Module rejects VP.ENTER and thus doesn't clobber
host MSRs as expected
Selftests:
- Fix a math goof in mmu_stress_test when running on a single-CPU
system/VM
- Forcefully override ARCH from x86_64 to x86 to play nice with
specifying ARCH=x86_64 on the command line
- Extend a bunch of nested VMX to validate nested SVM as well
- Add support for LA57 in the core VM_MODE_xxx macro, and add a test
to verify KVM can save/restore nested VMX state when L1 is using
5-level paging, but L2 is not
- Clean up the guest paging code in anticipation of sharing the core
logic for nested EPT and nested NPT
guest_memfd:
- Add NUMA mempolicy support for guest_memfd, and clean up a variety
of rough edges in guest_memfd along the way
- Define a CLASS to automatically handle get+put when grabbing a
guest_memfd from a memslot to make it harder to leak references
- Enhance KVM selftests to make it easer to develop and debug
selftests like those added for guest_memfd NUMA support, e.g. where
test and/or KVM bugs often result in hard-to-debug SIGBUS errors
- Misc cleanups
Generic:
- Use the recently-added WQ_PERCPU when creating the per-CPU
workqueue for irqfd cleanup
- Fix a goof in the dirty ring documentation
- Fix choice of target for directed yield across different calls to
kvm_vcpu_on_spin(); the function was always starting from the first
vCPU instead of continuing the round-robin search"

Pull folio updates from Christian Brauner:
"Add a new folio_next_pos() helper function that returns the file
position of the first byte after the current folio. This is a common
operation in filesystems when needing to know the end of the current
folio.
The helper is lifted from btrfs which already had its own version, and
is now used across multiple filesystems and subsystems:
- btrfs
- buffer
- ext4
- f2fs
- gfs2
- iomap
- netfs
- xfs
- mm
This fixes a long-standing bug in ocfs2 on 32-bit systems with files
larger than 2GiB. Presumably this is not a common configuration, but
the fix is backported anyway. The other filesystems did not have bugs,
they were just mildly inefficient.
This also introduce uoff_t as the unsigned version of loff_t. A recent
commit inadvertently changed a comparison from being unsigned (on
64-bit systems) to being signed (which it had always been on 32-bit
systems), leading to sporadic fstests failures.
Generally file sizes are restricted to being a signed integer, but in
places where -1 is passed to indicate "up to the end of the file", it
is convenient to have an unsigned type to ensure comparisons are
always unsigned regardless of architecture"
* tag 'vfs-6.19-rc1.folio' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs:

Pull writeback updates from Christian Brauner:
"Features:
- Allow file systems to increase the minimum writeback chunk size.
The relatively low minimal writeback size of 4MiB means that
written back inodes on rotational media are switched a lot. Besides
introducing additional seeks, this also can lead to extreme file
fragmentation on zoned devices when a lot of files are cached
relative to the available writeback bandwidth.
This adds a superblock field that allows the file system to
override the default size, and sets it to the zone size for zoned
XFS.
- Add logging for slow writeback when it exceeds
sysctl_hung_task_timeout_secs. This helps identify tasks waiting
for a long time and pinpoint potential issues. Recording the
starting jiffies is also useful when debugging a crashed vmcore.
- Wake up waiting tasks when finishing the writeback of a chunk
Cleanups:
- filemap_* writeback interface cleanups.
Adding filemap_fdatawrite_wbc ended up being a mistake, as all but
the original btrfs caller should be using better high level
interfaces instead.
This series removes all these low-level interfaces, switches btrfs
to a more specific interface, and cleans up other too low-level
interfaces. With this the writeback_control that is passed to the
writeback code is only initialized in three places.
- Remove __filemap_fdatawrite, __filemap_fdatawrite_range, and
filemap_fdatawrite_wbc
- Add filemap_flush_nr helper for btrfs
- Push struct writeback_control into start_delalloc_inodes in btrfs
- Rename filemap_fdatawrite_range_kick to filemap_flush_range
- Stop opencoding filemap_fdatawrite_range in 9p, ocfs2, and mm
- Make wbc_to_tag() inline and use it in fs"
* tag 'vfs-6.19-rc1.writeback' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs:

Add a new filemap_get_folios_dirty() helper to look up existing dirty
folios in a range and add them to a folio_batch. This is to support
optimization of certain iomap operations that only care about dirty
folios in a target range. For example, zero range only zeroes the subset
of dirty pages over unwritten mappings, seek hole/data may use similar
logic in the future, etc.
Note that the helper is intended for use under internal fs locks.
Therefore it trylocks folios in order to filter out clean folios.
This loosely follows the logic from filemap_range_has_writeback().

[first readahead: ra_size = 32, req_count = 15, async_size = 17]
When reading 64k data (same for 61-63k range, where last_index is
page-aligned in filemap_get_pages()), 128k readahead is triggered via
page_cache_sync_ra() and the PG_readahead flag is set on the next folio
(the one containing 0x10 page).
When reading 60k data, 128k readahead is also triggered via
page_cache_sync_ra(). However, in this case the readahead flag is set on
the 0xf page. Although the requested read size (req_count) is 60k, the
actual read will be aligned to folio size (64k), which triggers the
readahead flag and initiates asynchronous readahead via
page_cache_async_ra(). This results in two readahead operations totaling
256k.
The root cause is that when the requested size is smaller than the actual
read size (due to folio alignment), it triggers asynchronous readahead.
By changing last_index alignment from page size to folio size, we ensure
the requested size matches the actual read size, preventing the case where
a single read operation triggers two readahead operations.

The same phenomenon will occur when reading from 49k to 64k. Set the
readahead flag to the next folio.
Because the minimum order of folio in address_space equals the block size
(at least in xfs and bcachefs that already support bs > ps), having
request_count aligned to block size will not cause overread.

Patch series "introduce kernel file mapped folios", v4.
Btrfs currently tracks its metadata pages in the page cache, using a fake
inode (fs_info->btree_inode) with offsets corresponding to where the
metadata is stored in the filesystem's full logical address space.
A consequence of this is that when btrfs uses filemap_add_folio(), this
usage is charged to the cgroup of whichever task happens to be running at
the time. These folios don't belong to any particular user cgroup, so I
don't think it makes much sense for them to be charged in that way. Some
negative consequences as a result:
- A task can be holding some important btrfs locks, then need to lookup
some metadata and go into reclaim, extending the duration it holds
that lock for, and unfairly pushing its own reclaim pain onto other
cgroups.
- If that cgroup goes into reclaim, it might reclaim these folios a
different non-reclaiming cgroup might need soon. This is naturally
offset by LRU reclaim, but still.
We have two options for how to manage such file pages:
1. charge them to the root cgroup.
2. don't charge them to any cgroup at all.
2. breaks the invariant that every mapped page has a cgroup. This is
workable, but unnecessarily risky. Therefore, go with 1.
A very similar proposal to use the root cgroup was previously made by Qu,
where he eventually proposed the idea of setting it per address_space.
This makes good sense for the btrfs use case, as the behavior should apply
to all use of the address_space, not select allocations. I.e., if someone
adds another filemap_add_folio() call using btrfs's btree_inode, we would
almost certainly want to account that to the root cgroup as well.
This patch (of 3):
Add the flag AS_KERNEL_FILE to the address_space to indicate that this
mapping's memory is exempt from the usual memcg accounting.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm
Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
"As usual, many cleanups. The below blurbiage describes 42 patchsets.
21 of those are partially or fully cleanup work. "cleans up",
"cleanup", "maintainability", "rationalizes", etc.
I never knew the MM code was so dirty.
"mm: ksm: prevent KSM from breaking merging of new VMAs" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
addresses an issue with KSM's PR_SET_MEMORY_MERGE mode: newly
mapped VMAs were not eligible for merging with existing adjacent
VMAs.
"mm/damon: introduce DAMON_STAT for simple and practical access monitoring" (SeongJae Park)
adds a new kernel module which simplifies the setup and usage of
DAMON in production environments.
"stop passing a writeback_control to swap/shmem writeout" (Christoph Hellwig)
is a cleanup to the writeback code which removes a couple of
pointers from struct writeback_control.
"drivers/base/node.c: optimization and cleanups" (Donet Tom)
contains largely uncorrelated cleanups to the NUMA node setup and
management code.
"mm: userfaultfd: assorted fixes and cleanups" (Tal Zussman)
does some maintenance work on the userfaultfd code.
"Readahead tweaks for larger folios" (Ryan Roberts)
implements some tuneups for pagecache readahead when it is reading
into order>0 folios.
"selftests/mm: Tweaks to the cow test" (Mark Brown)
provides some cleanups and consistency improvements to the
selftests code.
"Optimize mremap() for large folios" (Dev Jain)
does that. A 37% reduction in execution time was measured in a
memset+mremap+munmap microbenchmark.
"Remove zero_user()" (Matthew Wilcox)
expunges zero_user() in favor of the more modern memzero_page().
"mm/huge_memory: vmf_insert_folio_*() and vmf_insert_pfn_pud() fixes" (David Hildenbrand)
addresses some warts which David noticed in the huge page code.
These were not known to be causing any issues at this time.
"mm/damon: use alloc_migrate_target() for DAMOS_MIGRATE_{HOT,COLD" (SeongJae Park)
provides some cleanup and consolidation work in DAMON.
"use vm_flags_t consistently" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
uses vm_flags_t in places where we were inappropriately using other
types.
"mm/memfd: Reserve hugetlb folios before allocation" (Vivek Kasireddy)
increases the reliability of large page allocation in the memfd
code.
"mm: Remove pXX_devmap page table bit and pfn_t type" (Alistair Popple)
removes several now-unneeded PFN_* flags.
"mm/damon: decouple sysfs from core" (SeongJae Park)
implememnts some cleanup and maintainability work in the DAMON
sysfs layer.
"madvise cleanup" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
does quite a lot of cleanup/maintenance work in the madvise() code.
"madvise anon_name cleanups" (Vlastimil Babka)
provides additional cleanups on top or Lorenzo's effort.
"Implement numa node notifier" (Oscar Salvador)
creates a standalone notifier for NUMA node memory state changes.
Previously these were lumped under the more general memory
on/offline notifier.
"Make MIGRATE_ISOLATE a standalone bit" (Zi Yan)
cleans up the pageblock isolation code and fixes a potential issue
which doesn't seem to cause any problems in practice.
"selftests/damon: add python and drgn based DAMON sysfs functionality tests" (SeongJae Park)
adds additional drgn- and python-based DAMON selftests which are
more comprehensive than the existing selftest suite.
"Misc rework on hugetlb faulting path" (Oscar Salvador)
fixes a rather obscure deadlock in the hugetlb fault code and
follows that fix with a series of cleanups.
"cma: factor out allocation logic from __cma_declare_contiguous_nid" (Mike Rapoport)
rationalizes and cleans up the highmem-specific code in the CMA
allocator.
"mm/migration: rework movable_ops page migration (part 1)" (David Hildenbrand)
provides cleanups and future-preparedness to the migration code.
"mm/damon: add trace events for auto-tuned monitoring intervals and DAMOS quota" (SeongJae Park)
adds some tracepoints to some DAMON auto-tuning code.
"mm/damon: fix misc bugs in DAMON modules" (SeongJae Park)
does that.
"mm/damon: misc cleanups" (SeongJae Park)
also does what it claims.
"mm: folio_pte_batch() improvements" (David Hildenbrand)
cleans up the large folio PTE batching code.
"mm/damon/vaddr: Allow interleaving in migrate_{hot,cold} actions" (SeongJae Park)
facilitates dynamic alteration of DAMON's inter-node allocation
policy.
"Remove unmap_and_put_page()" (Vishal Moola)
provides a couple of page->folio conversions.
"mm: per-node proactive reclaim" (Davidlohr Bueso)
implements a per-node control of proactive reclaim - beyond the
current memcg-based implementation.
"mm/damon: remove damon_callback" (SeongJae Park)
replaces the damon_callback interface with a more general and
powerful damon_call()+damos_walk() interface.
"mm/mremap: permit mremap() move of multiple VMAs" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
implements a number of mremap cleanups (of course) in preparation
for adding new mremap() functionality: newly permit the remapping
of multiple VMAs when the user is specifying MREMAP_FIXED. It still
excludes some specialized situations where this cannot be performed
reliably.
"drop hugetlb_free_pgd_range()" (Anthony Yznaga)
switches some sparc hugetlb code over to the generic version and
removes the thus-unneeded hugetlb_free_pgd_range().
"mm/damon/sysfs: support periodic and automated stats update" (SeongJae Park)
augments the present userspace-requested update of DAMON sysfs
monitoring files. Automatic update is now provided, along with a
tunable to control the update interval.
"Some randome fixes and cleanups to swapfile" (Kemeng Shi)
does what is claims.
"mm: introduce snapshot_page" (Luiz Capitulino and David Hildenbrand)
provides (and uses) a means by which debug-style functions can grab
a copy of a pageframe and inspect it locklessly without tripping
over the races inherent in operating on the live pageframe
directly.
"use per-vma locks for /proc/pid/maps reads" (Suren Baghdasaryan)
addresses the large contention issues which can be triggered by
reads from that procfs file. Latencies are reduced by more than
half in some situations. The series also introduces several new
selftests for the /proc/pid/maps interface.
"__folio_split() clean up" (Zi Yan)
cleans up __folio_split()!
"Optimize mprotect() for large folios" (Dev Jain)
provides some quite large (>3x) speedups to mprotect() when dealing
with large folios.
"selftests/mm: reuse FORCE_READ to replace "asm volatile("" : "+r" (XXX));" and some cleanup" (wang lian)
does some cleanup work in the selftests code.
"tools/testing: expand mremap testing" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
extends the mremap() selftest in several ways, including adding
more checking of Lorenzo's recently added "permit mremap() move of
multiple VMAs" feature.
"selftests/damon/sysfs.py: test all parameters" (SeongJae Park)
extends the DAMON sysfs interface selftest so that it tests all
possible user-requested parameters. Rather than the present minimal
subset"

This helper wraps __filemap_get_folio() with common flags such as
FGP_WRITEBEGIN, conditional FGP_DONTCACHE, and set folio order based

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mszeredi/fuse
Pull fuse updates from Miklos Szeredi:
- Remove tmp page copying in writeback path (Joanne).
This removes ~300 lines and with that a lot of complexity related to
avoiding reclaim related deadlock. The old mechanism is replaced with
a mapping flag that tells the MM not to block reclaim waiting for
writeback to complete. The MM parts have been reviewed/acked by
respective maintainers.
- Convert more code to handle large folios (Joanne). This still just
adds the code to deal with large folios and does not enable them yet.
- Allow invalidating all cached lookups atomically (Luis Henriques).
This feature is useful for CernVMFS, which currently does this
iteratively.
- Align write prefaulting in fuse with generic one (Dave Hansen)
- Fix race causing invalid data to be cached when setting attributes on
different nodes of a distributed fs (Guang Yuan Wu)
- Update documentation for passthrough (Chen Linxuan)
- Add fdinfo about the device number associated with an opened
/dev/fuse instance (Chen Linxuan)
- Increase readdir buffer size (Miklos). This depends on a patch to VFS
readdir code that was already merged through Christians tree.
- Optimize io-uring request expiration (Joanne)

There are no remaining users of folio_index() outside the mm subsystem.
Move it to mm/swap.h to co-locate it with swap_cache_index(), eliminating
a forward declaration, and a function call overhead.
Also remove the helper that was used to fix circular header dependency
issue.

Currently, none of the folio_contains callers should encounter swap cache
folios.
For fs/ callers, swap cache folios are never part of their workflow.
For filemap and truncate, folio_contains is only used for sanity checks to
verify the folio index matches the expected lookup / invalidation target.
The swap cache does not utilize filemap or truncate helpers in ways that
would trigger these checks, as it mostly implements its own cache
management.
Shmem won't trigger these sanity checks either unless thing went wrong, as
it would directly trigger a BUG because swap cache index are unrelated and
almost never matches shmem index. Shmem have to handle mixed values of
folios, shadows, and swap entries, so it has its own way of handling the
mapping.
While some filemap helpers works for swap cache space, the swap cache is
different from the page cache in many ways. So this particular helper
will unlikely to work in a helpful way for swap cache folios.
So make it explicit here that folio_contains should not be used for swap
cache folios. This helps to avoid misuse, make swap cache less exposed
and remove the folio_index usage here.

Remove a few APIs that we've converted everybody from using. I also found

Currently in shrink_folio_list(), reclaim for folios under writeback
falls into 3 different cases:
1) Reclaim is encountering an excessive number of folios under
writeback and this folio has both the writeback and reclaim flags
set
2) Dirty throttling is enabled (this happens if reclaim through cgroup
is not enabled, if reclaim through cgroupv2 memcg is enabled, or
if reclaim is on the root cgroup), or if the folio is not marked for
immediate reclaim, or if the caller does not have __GFP_FS (or
__GFP_IO if it's going to swap) set
3) Legacy cgroupv1 encounters a folio that already has the reclaim flag
set and the caller did not have __GFP_FS (or __GFP_IO if swap) set
In cases 1) and 2), we activate the folio and skip reclaiming it while
in case 3), we wait for writeback to finish on the folio and then try
to reclaim the folio again. In case 3, we wait on writeback because
cgroupv1 does not have dirty folio throttling, as such this is a
mitigation against the case where there are too many folios in writeback
with nothing else to reclaim.
If a filesystem (eg fuse) may deadlock due to reclaim waiting on
writeback, then the filesystem needs to add inefficient messy workarounds
to prevent this. To improve the performance of these filesystems, this
commit adds two things:
a) a AS_WRITEBACK_MAY_DEADLOCK_ON_RECLAIM mapping flag that filesystems
may set to indicate that reclaim should not wait on writeback
b) if legacy memcg encounters a folio with this
AS_WRITEBACK_MAY_DEADLOCK_ON_RECLAIM flag set (eg case 3), the folio
will be activated and skip reclaim (eg default to behavior in case 2)
instead.

This is far less efficient for the lagging filesystems which still
use page_offset(), but it removes an access to page->index. It also
fixes a bug -- if any filesystem passed a tail page to page_offset(),
it would return garbage which might result in the filesystem choosing
to not writeback a dirty page. There probably aren't any examples
of this, but I can't be certain.

Callers can pass this in for uncached folio creation, in which case if a
folio is newly created it gets marked as uncached. If a folio exists for
this index and lookup succeeds, then it will not get marked as uncached.
If an !uncached lookup finds a cached folio, clear the flag. For that
case, there are competeting uncached and cached users of the folio, and it

Patch series "Support large folios for tmpfs", v3.
Traditionally, tmpfs only supported PMD-sized large folios. However
nowadays with other file systems supporting any sized large folios, and
extending anonymous to support mTHP, we should not restrict tmpfs to
allocating only PMD-sized large folios, making it more special. Instead,
we should allow tmpfs can allocate any sized large folios.
Considering that tmpfs already has the 'huge=' option to control the
PMD-sized large folios allocation, we can extend the 'huge=' option to
allow any sized large folios. The semantics of the 'huge=' mount option
are:
huge=never: no any sized large folios
huge=always: any sized large folios
huge=within_size: like 'always' but respect the i_size
huge=advise: like 'always' if requested with madvise()
Note: for tmpfs mmap() faults, due to the lack of a write size hint, still
allocate the PMD-sized large folios if huge=always/within_size/advise is
set.
Moreover, the 'deny' and 'force' testing options controlled by
'/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/shmem_enabled', still retain the same
semantics. The 'deny' can disable any sized large folios for tmpfs, while
the 'force' can enable PMD sized large folios for tmpfs.
This patch (of 6):
Factor out the order calculation into a new helper, which can be reused by
shmem in the following patch.

Patch series "page->index removals in mm", v2.
As part of shrinking struct page, we need to stop using page->index. This
patchset gets rid of most of the remaining references to page->index in
mm, as well as increasing the number of functions which take a const
folio/page pointer. It shrinks the text segment of mm by a few hundred
bytes in my test config, probably mostly from removing calls to
compound_head() in page_to_pgoff().
This patch (of 7):
Change the function signature to pass in the folio as all three callers
have it. This removes a reference to page->index, which we're trying to
get rid of. And add kernel-doc.

Pull vfs blocksize updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the vfs infrastructure as well as the xfs bits to enable
support for block sizes (bs) larger than page sizes (ps) plus a few
fixes to related infrastructure.
There has been efforts over the last 16 years to enable enable Large
Block Sizes (LBS), that is block sizes in filesystems where bs > page
size. Through these efforts we have learned that one of the main
blockers to supporting bs > ps in filesystems has been a way to
allocate pages that are at least the filesystem block size on the page
cache where bs > ps.
Thanks to various previous efforts it is possible to support bs > ps
in XFS with only a few changes in XFS itself. Most changes are to the
page cache to support minimum order folio support for the target block
size on the filesystem.
A motivation for Large Block Sizes today is to support high-capacity
(large amount of Terabytes) QLC SSDs where the internal Indirection
Unit (IU) are typically greater than 4k to help reduce DRAM and so in
turn cost and space. In practice this then allows different
architectures to use a base page size of 4k while still enabling
support for block sizes aligned to the larger IUs by relying on high
order folios on the page cache when needed.
It also allows to take advantage of the drive's support for atomics
larger than 4k with buffered IO support in Linux. As described this
year at LSFMM, supporting large atomics greater than 4k enables
databases to remove the need to rely on their own journaling, so they
can disable double buffered writes, which is a feature different cloud
providers are already enabling through custom storage solutions"

kiocb_invalidate_pages() is useful for the write path, however not
everything is backed by kiocb and we want to reuse the function for bio
based discard implementation. Extract and and reuse a new helper called
filemap_invalidate_pages(), which takes a argument indicating whether it
should be non-blocking and might return -EAGAIN.
