When an input device is being unregistered via input_unregister_device(),
input_disconnect_device() sets dev->going_away = true under dev->mutex
and releases the mutex.
If a concurrent sysfs write to the inhibited attribute executes
input_inhibit_device() or input_uninhibit_device(), it acquires
dev->mutex. Because neither function checks dev->going_away (unlike
input_open_device()), input_uninhibit_device() proceeds to call
dev->open() and start polling on a device that is in the middle of being
unregistered and torn down.
Fix this by checking dev->going_away in input_inhibit_device() and
input_uninhibit_device() under dev->mutex and returning -ENODEV if the
device is going away.

When registering an input handle, handler->start() is currently called
immediately. However, the input device might not be fully opened or
ready to process events at this stage, meaning any state synchronization
events (like setting LED states) injected by the handler's start method
might be dropped.
Move the handler->start() invocation to input_open_device(). If it is
the first handle opening the device, start() is called after the driver's
open() method has successfully completed and the device is fully prepared.
To facilitate this, factor out the device startup logic (calling driver's
open and starting polling) into input_start_device().
For passive observer handlers, their start() method is also deferred
until the handle is opened. Since opening a passive observer handle does
not start the underlying hardware device, their start() method is called
immediately upon opening, regardless of whether the device is active.

When a device is opened via input_open_device(), the driver's open()
callback is invoked. Some drivers, like cm109, submit URBs or perform
other hardware initialization in their open() callbacks.
However, the input core does not prevent dev->event() from being called
concurrently during the driver's open() execution. For instance, if a
console beep occurs, the kbd handler might inject an EV_SND event. This
can lead to double list_add BUGs if the driver submits the same URB in
both open() and event() paths without adequate synchronization.
To fix this, introduce a ready flag in the input_dev structure.
For complex devices (where dev->open is defined), this flag is set to true
only after the driver's open() method successfully completes. The core now
checks ready in input_event_dispose() and input_dev_toggle()
to prevent events from reaching the hardware before it is fully prepared.
For simple devices (no open callback), events are delivered immediately.
We also replay the logical state in input_open_device() by calling
input_dev_toggle() right after marking the device ready, ensuring no
events are permanently lost.
In the inhibit path, we ensure that physical feedback (LEDs/sounds) is
turned off before the device is closed, and we synchronize the inhibited
state transition under the event lock to prevent races with incoming events.

Allocate doorbells from dma pools instead of the pgdir allocator.
Doorbell records remain cache-line sized coherent DMA allocations, but
their sub-allocation is now handled by the common mlx5 DMA pool
infrastructure.
This also makes doorbell allocation honor the requested NUMA node when
reusing existing backing pages. The old pgdir allocator used the
requested node only when allocating a new pgdir page; later
allocations scanned one global pgdir list and could take any pgdir with
a free entry, even if that page had been allocated for a different
NUMA node. Selecting the per-node DMA pool before sub-allocation keeps
reused doorbell records on pages allocated for the requested node.

Some newer AMD/Pensando cards have minimal memory and there are cases
where components, specifically in the control plane, need more memory.
This series adds support for host backed DMA memory that can be used
by the firmware for the previously mentioned cases.
Host memory allocation is best-effort: if some allocations fail, the
driver continues with whatever succeeded. Firmware gracefully degrades
when less memory is available than requested.

pldmfw API. This allows updating an entire PLDM FW package at once
or updating specific firmware components by name.
Flash the entire image:

Flash a specific component from the PLDM FW package:
devlink dev flash pci/0000:b5:00.0 \
file firmware.pldmfw component fw.cpld
Per-component update uses driver-defined component names (fw, fw.cpld,

dibs->lock is initialised by dibs_dev_add(), but a dibs device can
already take interrupts before that call: ism_probe() runs
ism_dev_init(), and hence request_irq(), before it calls
dibs_dev_add(). No client can have registered a dmb at that point, so
no dmb interrupt can occur, but a GID event interrupt can, and
ism_handle_irq() takes dibs->lock unconditionally on entry, before it
inspects anything else.
Initialise the lock in dibs_dev_alloc() instead, so that it is valid as
soon as a driver can publish the device to its interrupt handler.

====================
Netfilter updates for net-next
The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for net-next:
1) Update conncount to use the original tuple after ct lookup to ensure
consistent counting, from Fernando F. Mancera.
2) Remove redundant net_device field in info structure that helps
parse the flowtable path discovery.
3) Move net_device to flowtable check to the flowtable discovery
path parser. This is preparation work to pass the tunnel dst_entry
via .fill_forward_path.
4) Update DSA .fill_forward_path to break at the user DSA, since
the conduit DSA is not used in the datapath. This slighly simplifies
the flowtable path discovery parser.
5) Do not advance index in the path stack prematurely, otherwise
it points to uninitialized slots on error. Not an issue currently
but it could be once tunnel dst_entry is passed via .fill_forward_path.
6) Pass the tunnel dst_entry via dev_fill_forward_path().
7) Update ipip and ip6ip6 tunnels to pass the dst_entry through
dev_fill_forward_path().
8) Call skb_valid_dst() before accessing skb_dst() to ensure dst_entry
is not a template.
9) Use UNACK timeout when RST packet does not match the expected
window while in ESTABLISHED state, the existing approach the CLOSE
state timeout which is only 10 seconds. Adopt a more conservative
timeout by default for this case.

syzbot is reporting KCOV state corruption on PREEMPT_RT kernels, for the
temporary storage used for saving/restoring remote KCOV state is currently
allocated as the per-CPU area.
On PREEMPT_RT kernels, softirq handlers run as preemptible task threads
(e.g., ksoftirqd). If a softirq context preempts a task running a remote
KCOV session, it safely saves the task's state into the per-CPU area.
However, if that softirq thread is subsequently preempted by a higher-
priority softirq thread on the same CPU, the second softirq will overwrite
the same per-CPU area, permanently destroying the original task's KCOV
state.
Fix this data corruption by moving the temporary storage from the per-CPU
area to the per-thread area. Since each softirq thread now owns its own
task context, nested softirq preemption no longer causes data overwrites.
Note that while the temporary storage is now on a per-thread basis, the
per-CPU kcov_percpu_data.lock must be retained, for we need to ensure that
kcov_remote_start() and kcov_remote_stop() operate atomically without
racing against asynchronous interrupts that manipulate the current task's
KCOV state.
It is likely that GFP_KERNEL allocation by vmalloc_node() in kcov_init()
has already called panic() before returning NULL, for there will be no
OOM-killable userspace processes when __init function of built-in module
runs. But this patch also fixes crashing the kernel when vmalloc_node()
in kcov_init() returned NULL, for kcov_init() left per-CPU irq_area == NULL
but kcov_remote_start() depends on per-CPU irq_area != NULL, resulting in
(1) doing vmalloc() in kcov_remote_start() despite !in_task() context
(2) out-of-array-bounds access if (1) succeeded but
kcov->remote_size < CONFIG_KCOV_IRQ_AREA_SIZE
(3) always leak memory allocated by (1), eventually killing all
OOM-killable userspace processes
problems.

Patch series "mm: fix UAF caused by race between ptdump and vmap pgtable
freeing", v6.
Kernel page table walkers fall into two broad categories - those ranges
where no exclusion is required via walk_kernel_page_table_range_lockless()
and those where exclusion is required via walk_kernel_page_table_range()
or walk_page_range_debug().
The former category is used only by arm64 arch code operating on ranges it
both wholly owns and does not concurrently write.
The latter category consists of kernel page table walkers operating on
ranges that are wholly owned (but which need exclusion against concurrent
writers).
The lock used for exclusion is the mmap lock, and for kernel ranges this
is the mmap lock on init_mm.
ptdump is a special case being both the only user of
walk_page_range_debug(), and the only case in which it walks ranges it
does not own.
This presents a problem, as page tables may be freed under ptdump. And
indeed there is a use-after-free bug in the kernel as a result, which this
series addresses.
vmap promotes page tables to huge leaf entries where possible, freeing the
lower page table when it does. It does this with no meaningful locks held
against concurrent ptdump walks.
As a result, use-after-free can currently occur. This series addresses
the issue by having the vmap huge promotion logic acquire the mmap read
lock while both setting the huge page table entry and freeing the prior
leaf page table.
The ptdump code already acquires the mmap write lock, so by doing so we
ensure that the ptdump walker only ever observes either the huge page
table entry or the existing page table entry, and nothing is freed
underneath it.
A mitigation for this issue was already applied for arm64 in commit
fa93b45fd397 ("arm64: Enable vmalloc-huge with ptdump"), which this series
has to deal with carefully.
This mitigation resolves the issue by acquiring the mmap read lock on
init_mm on vmap page table free if a ptdump is in progress.
However the fix in this series would cause a deadlock if we were to simply
apply it for arm64 without also reverting the change.
This is because vmap may acquire the read lock before ptdump attempts to
acquire the write lock, which then gets queued, and rwsem starvation rules
mean that the (unacknowledged) nested mmap read lock in the arm64 code
would also block, meaning the original read lock is never released and
thus deadlock.
This series works around this by #ifndef CONFIG_ARM64'ing the mmap read
lock in vmap logic, then partially reverting commit fa93b45fd397 ("arm64:
Enable vmalloc-huge with ptdump"), keeping the enablement of huge vmap
support, and removing the ifdeffery with the partial revert patch.
There are related issues that are also addressed in this series:
* x86 page attribute logic, specifically Change Page Attributes (CPA),
implements a feature whereby huge ranges can be collapsed into huge leaf
entries. This can similarly cause a UAF when done in parallel with a
ptdump walk, so similarly acquire the init_mm mmap lock to avoid this.
* The CPA logic allows concurrent page table manipulation and CPA
collapse, meaning the former risks accessing a page table the latter
frees. Fix this by acquiring mmap write lock on init_mm across the
whole CPA collapse operation and read lock on the page table
manipulation.
* x86 and arm64 permit walks of non-kernel mm's (both allowing efi mm
walks, and in x86's case arbitrary mm's), so we ensure kernel mappings
remain stable by locking the init_mm as well as the mm being walked.
The ordering of patches is established for both strict dependencies (the
arm64 partial revert in particular has to be done after the vmap changes)
and logical ones (the non-kernel mm fix only makes sense once the vmap/CPA
fixes are in place).
This patch (of 3):
Currently there is a nasty race between ptdump and vmap when attempting to
map a huge P4D, PUD or PMD entry:
* ptdump walks kernel page table ranges it doesn't own.
* When vmap maps ranges it tries to promotes existing ones to huge page
tables in vmap_try_huge_[p4d,pud,pmd]() at P4D, PUD and PMD level,
freeing the lower page table in [p4d,pud,pmd]_free_[pud,pmd,pte]_page()
when it succeeds.
Both of these things can happen at the same time and as a result ptdump
can access a freed page table, resulting in a use-after-free and memory
corruption.
This is possible because while ptdump_walk_pgd() holds both the mem
hotplug lock and the mmap write lock before invoking
walk_page_range_debug(), vmap takes no relevant locks at all.
Fix this by holding the mmap read lock in vmap_try_huge_*() when freeing
page tables.
The read lock is sufficient: ptdump is the only walker that must be
excluded and it holds the mmap write lock. Other holders of the read lock
may run concurrently, but each exclusively owns the range it operates on
and cannot reach the page tables freed here.
We also hold the lock while assigning the huge page table entry, which
means page table walkers observe only the huge or non-huge page table
entry.
We use a trylock to prevent ptdump from blocking vmap making forward
progress. This is fine because it's an optimisation in any case, and thus
the vmap can safely proceed regardless.
All other kernel page table walkers that touch vmalloc ranges either
exclusively own the memory walked or acquire the mmap lock, so this
correctly excludes those walkers.
One wrinkle here is commit fa93b45fd397 ("arm64: Enable vmalloc-huge with
ptdump"), which addresses the issue for arm64 only by explicitly acquiring
the mmap read lock on kernel page table freeing should a concurrent ptdump
be in progress.
This is problematic as vmap may acquire the mmap read lock prior to ptdump
attempting to acquire an mmap write lock, leading to a deadlock when the
mmap read lock is slept upon on page table freeing due to rwsem
anti-starvation.
We work around this by predicating the mmap lock being taken on
!CONFIG_ARM64 for the time being.
With this patch applied, a follow up will partially revert commit
fa93b45fd397 ("arm64: Enable vmalloc-huge with ptdump") and at that stage
remove the arm64 ifdeffery.
We also update walk_page_range_debug() to assert the mmap write lock
unconditionally and update the comment here to reflect this change.
The issue has existed as long as ptdump was available and vmap freed page
tables when promoting to a huge leaf entry, that is, since commit
b6bdb7517c3d ("mm/vmalloc: add interfaces to free unmapped page table")
for huge ioremap, and commit 121e6f3258fe ("mm/vmalloc: hugepage vmalloc
mappings") for huge vmalloc.
Since the former is the earlier of the two we choose that for our Fixes
tag.
We also define a guard class for mmap_read_trylock() so we can use
cleanup.h to make the scope handling cleaner in the implementation.
This patch is based on work by David Carlier (linked), with gratitude!

Simplify try_to_unmap_one() by separating the hugetlb parts into
try_to_unmap_poisoned_hugetlb_one().
To understand the correctness of the refactoring, the following points
are noted:
1. try_to_unmap() is called for hugetlb folios only when they are
hwpoisoned.
2. A hugetlb VMA cannot be mlocked.
3. page_vma_mapped_walk() returns at most one hugetlb mapping in a VMA,
and that mapping points at the head PFN.
4. We won't ever process a softleaf entry that encodes a hugetlb folio;
hugetlb folios are never swapped out, migration entries will be
skipped (PVMW_MIGRATION not passed), and device-exclusive does not
work for hugetlb.
5. The hwpoison entry is constructed from the poisoned folio, just as in
the pre-refactor code. Any previous uffd-wp state is deliberately not
preserved for the hwpoison entry.
6. TTU_HWPOISON is always present; for it to not be present, either the
folio has to be in swapcache, or mapping_can_writeback() is true (see
unmap_poisoned_folio), none of which is true for hugetlb folios.
7. Hugetlb uses separate counters from normal rss counters, therefore
update_highwater_rss() need not be called.
While at it:
- Change VM_BUG_* to VM_WARN_*.
- Do not declare variables which are only used once.
- Constify some variables.
- Add some more VM_WARN_* to assert some invariants.
Except the above 4 points, no functional change intended.

With __install_special_mapping() moved to vma.c, vma_set_range() can be
made into a static function there and is now completely isolated from the
rest of mm.
While we're here, we can also remove the insert_vm_struct() declaration
from mm.h - the function is implemented in vma.c and already declared in
vma.h, and has no users outside of mm.
Also update the VMA userland tests to reflect this change.

vma_assert_write_locked() and vma_assert_attached() are useful for their
own purposes, however VMA code absolutely does allow the modification of
non-write locked VMAs if they are at that point detached (i.e. unreachable
from anywhere).
It's therefore useful to be able to assert that a VMA is either
detached (modification doesn't matter) or write locked (you're explicitly
locked for modification).
Therefore introduce vma_assert_can_modify() for this purpose.
While we're here, make vma_is_attached() available generally - if
!CONFIG_PER_VMA_LOCK, then there's no sense in which a VMA is
detached (vma_mark_detached() is a noop), so have this default to true in
this case.
Also update VMA userland tests to reflect this change, correcting the
previously open-coded vma_assert_[attached,detached]() there.

There are many instances in which linear_page_index() (as well as
linear_page_delta()) is open-coded, which is confusing and inconsistent.
Additionally, vma->vm_pgoff doesn't necessarily make it clear that this is
the page offset of the start of the VMA range.
Doing so also aids greppability.
So use vma_start_pgoff() in favour of directly accessing vma->vm_pgoff, and
linear_page_index() where we can.
This also lays the ground for future changes which will add an anonymous
page offset in order to be able to index MAP_PRIVATE-file backed anon
folios in terms of their virtual page offset.
No functional change intended.

It's often useful to obtain the number of pages a given address lies at
within a VMA.
Add linear_page_delta() to determine this and update linear_page_index() to
make use of it.
Add comments to describe both linear_page_delta() and linear_page_index().
We refer the reader to the comment for vma_start_pgoff() so we don't
duplicate information about the meaning of a VMA's page offset, which is
also less likely to result in bitrot.

anon_vma_interval_tree*() in terms of anon_vma rather than rb_root_cached.
In each case the rb tree referenced is &anon_vma->rb_root, so just pass
anon_vma and the functions can figure this out themselves.
Also update the VMA userland tests to reflect the change.

The family of vma_interval_tree_() functions manipulate the
address_space (which, of course, is generally referred to as 'mapping')
reverse mapping, but are named the 'VMA' interval tree.
VMAs may be mapped by an anon_vma, an address_space, or both. Therefore
calling the mapping interval tree a 'VMA' interval tree is rather
confusing.
This is also inconsistent with the anon_vma_interval_tree_*() functions
which explicitly reference the rmap object to which they pertain.
Rename the vma_interval_tree_*() functions to mapping_rmap_tree_*() to
correct this.
We will rename the anon rmap functions similarly in a subsequent patch.
No functional change intended.

The file-backed mapping interval tree functions vma_interval_tree_*()
accept a raw rb_root_cached pointer to determine the tree in which they are
operating.
However, in each case, this is always associated with an address_space data
type.
So simply pass a pointer to that instead to simplify the code, and more
clearly differentiate between these operations and those concerning
anonymous mappings.
While we're here, make the generated interval tree functions static as they
do not need to be used externally (any previously existing external users
have now been removed).
We also rename VMA parameters from 'node' to 'vma' as calling this a node
is simply confusing, update the input index types to pgoff_t since they
reference page offsets and rename the parameters to pgoff_start and
pgoff_last.

Patch series "mm: make VMA page offset handling more consistent", v2.
This series performs a series of cleanups and improvements around how the
vma->vm_pgoff field is used.
Folios belonging to file-backed mappings are simply indexed by the page
offset within the file they map (excepting pfnmap and driver mappings
which sometimes do things different).
However, anonymous folios belonging to pure anonymous mappings are indexed
by their "virtual" page offset, which is equal to addr >> PAGE_SHIFT at
the time at which the VMA was first faulted in.
The page offset of a VMA is stored in vma->vm_pgoff and indicates the page
offset of the start of the VMA range, whether it be file-backed or
anonymous.
The work here both cleans up how we reference this field, as well as
laying the foundations for a future series which addresses the
inconsistency of CoW'd folios in MAP_PRIVATE-file backed mappings, which
are indexed as if they were file-backed but behave as if they were
anonymous.
This future series will make it such that all anonymous folios are indexed
by virtual page offset whether belonging to VMAs who satisfy
vma_is_anonymous() or MAP_PRIVATE-mapped file-backed mappings.
This series:
* Exposes vma_start_pgoff() and updates the kernel to use it consistently.
* Adds and uses the useful vma_end_pgoff() helper.
* Parameterises the file-backed mapping helpers vma_interval_tree_*()
by address_space rather than rb_root_cached.
* Renames: the misleadingly-named vma_interval_tree_*() helpers to
mapping_rmap_tree_*() to be consistent with the renamed
anon_rmap_tree_*().
* Parameterises anon_rmap_tree_*() by anon_vma.
* Moves mm/interval_tree.c to the rmap section.
* Adds vmg_*() helpers for page offset.
* Clarifies the confusing vmg_adjust_set_range() function.
* Introduces linear_page_delta() to provide relative pgoff within a VMA.
* Replaces open-coded versions of linear_page_delta() and
linear_page_index() with invocations of these functions.
* Introduces and uses vma_assert_can_modify() to account for whether a VMA
can be modified (detached or write locked).
* Adds and uses vma_[add,sub]_pgoff() to adjust VMA page offset.
* Moves __install_special_mapping() to vma.c.
* Makes vma_set_range() static and internal to vma.c.
* Introduces and makes use of vma_set_pgoff().
* Fixes incorrect vma.h header inclusion.
* Defaults VMA userland tests to 64-bit vma flags size.
* Updates VMA userland tests to give better output on failure.
* Various smaller cleanups.
* Updated the vma_set_pgoff() assert to account for MAP_PRIVATE /dev/zero
correctly.
This patch (of 33):
vma_last_pgoff() already lives there, so it's a bit odd to keep
vma_start_pgoff() in mm/interval_tree.c. Move them together.
These each return unsigned long, which pgoff_t is typedef'd to. Make this
consistent and have these functions return pgoff_t instead.
Additionally, express vma_last_pgoff() in terms of vma_start_pgoff(), since
we wrap the vma->vm_pgoff access, we may as well use it here.
Also while we're here, const-ify the VMA and cleanup a bit.
Also update the VMA userland tests to reflect the change.
No functional change intended.

hmm_range_fault() requires the caller to hold the mmap read lock for the
duration of the call. This is incompatible with mappings whose fault
handler may release the mmap lock, notably userfaultfd-managed regions,
where handle_mm_fault() can return VM_FAULT_RETRY or VM_FAULT_COMPLETED
after dropping the lock. Drivers that need to populate device page tables
for such mappings have no way to do so today.
Add hmm_range_fault_unlocked_timeout() for callers that do not need to
hold mmap_lock across any work outside the HMM fault itself. The helper
takes mmap_read_lock_killable() internally, calls the common HMM fault
implementation, and releases the lock before returning if it is still
held. The timeout is specified in jiffies; passing 0 retries
indefinitely, while a non-zero timeout makes the helper return -EBUSY when
the retry budget expires. The retry deadline is set before refreshing the
notifier sequence and acquiring mmap_lock, so contended mmap_lock
acquisition is included in the retry budget. After acquiring mmap_lock,
the helper also rejects unstable address spaces before walking page
tables.
When handle_mm_fault() drops mmap_lock, or when the range is invalidated,
hmm_range_fault_unlocked_timeout() refreshes range->notifier_seq and
retries the walk internally. If the lock was dropped, the retry deadline
is also restarted because a lock-dropping fault handler made progress.
Ordinary -EBUSY retries keep the existing deadline, preserving the
caller's timeout policy for repeated mmu-notifier invalidations.
The caller only needs to perform the usual post-success
mmu_interval_read_retry() check while holding its update lock before
consuming the pfns. If mmap_lock acquisition is interrupted or a fatal
signal is pending during retry handling, -EINTR is returned instead.
The common implementation conditionally sets FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY and
FAULT_FLAG_KILLABLE only for hmm_range_fault_unlocked_timeout(). The
existing hmm_range_fault() path still passes no locked state, does not
allow handle_mm_fault() to drop mmap_lock, and remains a thin wrapper
preserving the existing API contract for current callers.
The previous refactor that moved page fault handling out of the page-table
walk callbacks is what makes this change small. Faults now run after
walk_page_range() has unwound, with only mmap_lock held, so dropping it
does not interact with the walker's pte spinlock or hugetlb_vma_lock.
Hugetlb regions therefore participate in the unlocked path uniformly with
PTE- and PMD-level mappings; no special case is required.
Documentation/mm/hmm.rst is updated with a description of the new API and
the recommended caller pattern.

When damon_probe->weight is set, the weighted sum of probe hits will be
useful. It will be useful for not only the users but also DAMON internal
logics like regions merging. Implement a function for calculating it.

check_accesses() DAMON ops callback returns the maximum nr_accesses of
regions. DAMON core uses it to calculate a reasonable region merge
threshold. The core will need to adjust regions for not nr_accesses but
probe hits weighted sum in future. For that, the core needs to know the
maximum weighted sum of the regions. Update the protocol for the task.

Patch series "mm/damon: introduce data attributes only monitoring".
TL;DR: Introduce a way to get DAMON's best effort accuracy monitoring of
user-demanding non-access data attributes.
Background
==========
DAMON was initially designed for only access monitoring. It turned out
users want to get the information together with more data attributes. For
example, some users want to know how much of a hot memory region belongs
to huge pages or specific cgroups. Page level properties based monitoring
was introduced with commit 626ffabe67c2 ("mm/damon: clarify trying vs
applying on damos_stat kernel-doc comment") to fill the gap. Because it
works only at snapshot level and snapshot capturing in the mode can induce
high overhead, commit 45c49d9fd608 ("mm/damon/core: introduce struct
damon_probe") introduced data attributes monitoring.
Data attributes monitoring treats the attributes as only additional and
subordinate information. Data access monitoring is always turned on, and
regions are adjusted for best accuracy of the access information. In some
cases, users may be primarily interested in the attributes more than the
access. They might even not care about the access information at all.
Because DAMON treats data accesses as the only primary information, such
users cannot get high quality attributes information.
Design and Implementation
=========================
Introduce another way for treating data attributes as the primary
information. Add 'weight' property to each data attribute probe. When
any of the weights are set, the mode is enabled. Data access monitoring
is completely turned off in the mode. For region adjustment, the weighted
sum of probe hit counters is used instead of the nr_accesses.
Using the weights, users can specify to what attributes they are
interested in to what degree. DAMON will adjust the regions and provide
the best-effort quality monitoring that is optimized for the user demands.
Extend damon_operations for efficient use of probe hits. Update regions
merge and kdamond main logic to support the new mode. Add a new struct
field and a sysfs file for API callers and ABI users, respectively.
Test
====
On ~7 GiB memory idle system, run a simple AI-assisted program. The
program allocates and faults 2 GiB anonymous pages. Then, it does nothing
but wait until the user terminates it. Hence, the system ~2 GiB of
anonymous pages with no active accesses.
Monitor the distribution of the anonymous pages using DAMON attributes
monitoring mode, using DAMON user-space tool, damo [1].

Note that the line after the line starting with "intervals:" is not
provided by the current version of 'damo'. I manually added the legends
line for easier understanding of these results.
Each of the 12 lines after the legend line shows the DAMON-found regions.
Each line shows 1) index of the region, 2) start address of the region, 3)
size of the region, 4) access frequency of the region, 5) age (how long
the access frequency on the region was kept) of the region, and finally 6)
the probe hit count.
Because data access is the primary information that adjusts region for,
and there is only nearly zero access on the system, regions are naively
adjusted with the same size. Still <probe hits> show different
distribution of the anonymous pages, but it is obviously very rough
information.
Switch to the attributes only mode and show how it changes the picture:

As expected, regions are adjusted to provide the best accurate picture for
the anonymous pages distribution (<probe hits>). The region 0 (60.445 MiB
memory from the address 4.000 KiB) has nearly zero anonymous pages. The
region 1 (1.363 MiB memory from the address 60.449 MiB) is nearly full
with anonymous pages. Region 500 (8 KiB memory from the address 5.132
GiB) is certainly two anonymous pages.
Future Work
===========
Attributes only monitoring disables access monitoring. We will enable
that in future, by extending the supported attributes to include data
accesses. This patch series, and the future work are parts of the ongoing
project [2] for extending DAMON. The project aims to extend DAMON with
primitives other than page table accessed bits such as AMD IBS, Intel
PEBS, and Arm SPE, to provide more powerful and detailed information like
per-CPUs/threads/reads/writes monitoring.
Patches Sequence
================
Patch 1 introduces damon_probe->weight for specifying the weights of each
attribute. Patches 2-6 extends apply_probe() damon_ops callback to
efficiently support the new mode. Patch 7 fixes wrong use of abs() in the
regions merge code. Patch 8 extends regions merge function to work with
probe hits in the mode. Patch 8 also introduces the function for
detecting the mode enablement but always returns false, for safe and
incremental changes. Patches 9 and 10 adds user parameters validation to
prevent theoretical overflow of probe hits and the weighted sum. Patches
11-14 incrementally update kdamond_fn() to support the mode. Patch 15
completes the mode detection function implementation, so that the new mode
really works. Patch 16 introduces a new sysfs file for ABI users.
Finally, patches 17-19 respectively updates design, usage and ABI
documents for the new feature and interfaces.

As preparation for further changes, let's temporarily allow freeing pages

This will allow freeing unregistered vmemmap pages allocated during boot
through free_bootmem_page() from hugetlb code, until we fully rip all of
that out.

Let's extend free_reserved_page() in page_alloc.c to
free_reserved_pages(), dropping the custom x86 variant. The common-code
variant will consume an order, so adjust the x86 callers accordingly.
Make free_reserved_pages() assume that we are freeing ordinary high-order
pages, just with the special "reserved" flavor. The target use case for
now is freeing vmemmap PMD pages.
Set the refcount directly to 0 (instead of 1) and call
__free_frozen_pages(). Set the page count to 0 before clearing
PG_reserved, so someone checking PG_reserved (and not finding it set) to
then try grabbing a ref would not suddenly have that ref be dropped. That
is arguably cleaner and safer than the old way of doing it.
Add some kerneldoc. Use a single adjust_managed_page_count() call.

Sync RWP delivers a message and blocks the faulting thread until the
handler resolves the fault. For working-set tracking the VMM does not
need the message: it just needs to know, at scan time, which pages were
touched. Async RWP serves that use case — the kernel restores access
in-place and the faulting thread continues without blocking.
The VMM reconstructs the access pattern after the fact via PAGEMAP_SCAN:
pages whose uffd bit is still set (inverted PAGE_IS_ACCESSED) were not
re-accessed since the last RWP cycle.
Worth calling out: async resolution upgrades writable private anon PTEs
via pte_mkwrite() when can_change_pte_writable() allows, mirroring
do_numa_page(). Without it, every re-access of an RWP'd writable page
would COW-fault a second time.
UFFD_FEATURE_RWP_ASYNC requires UFFD_FEATURE_RWP.

Wire the fault side of read-write protection tracking and turn the
userspace interface on.
An RWP-protected PTE is PAGE_NONE with the uffd bit set. The PROT_NONE
triggers a fault on any access; the uffd bit distinguishes it from plain
mprotect(PROT_NONE) or NUMA hinting.
Fault dispatch, per level:
PTE handle_pte_fault() -> do_uffd_rwp()
PMD __handle_mm_fault() -> do_huge_pmd_uffd_rwp()
hugetlb hugetlb_fault() -> hugetlb_handle_userfault()
The RWP branches gate on userfaultfd_pte_rwp() /
userfaultfd_huge_pmd_rwp() (VM_UFFD_RWP plus the uffd bit) and fall
through to do_numa_page() / do_huge_pmd_numa_page() otherwise. Each
delivers a UFFD_PAGEFAULT_FLAG_RWP message through handle_userfault(); the
handler resolves it with UFFDIO_RWPROTECT clearing MODE_RWP.
userfaultfd_must_wait() and userfaultfd_huge_must_wait() add matching
protnone+uffd waiters so sync-mode fault handlers block correctly.
Expose the UAPI:
UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_RWP -> UFFD_API_REGISTER_MODES
UFFD_FEATURE_RWP -> UFFD_API_FEATURES
_UFFDIO_RWPROTECT -> UFFD_API_RANGE_IOCTLS
UFFD_API_RANGE_IOCTLS_BASIC
UFFD_FEATURE_RWP is masked out at UFFDIO_API time when PROT_NONE is not
available or VM_UFFD_RWP aliases VM_NONE (32-bit), so userspace never sees
an advertised-but-broken feature.
