mm/ksm: fix -Wsometimes-uninitialized from clang-21 in advisor_mode_show()
After a recent change in clang to expose uninitialized warnings from const
variables [1], there is a false positive warning from the if statement in
advisor_mode_show().
mm/ksm.c:3687:11: error: variable 'output' is used uninitialized whenever 'if' condition is false [-Werror,-Wsometimes-uninitialized]
3687 | else if (ksm_advisor == KSM_ADVISOR_SCAN_TIME)
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
mm/ksm.c:3690:33: note: uninitialized use occurs here
3690 | return sysfs_emit(buf, "%s\n", output);
| ^~~~~~
Rewrite the if statement to implicitly make KSM_ADVISOR_NONE the else
branch so that it is obvious to the compiler that ksm_advisor can only be
KSM_ADVISOR_NONE or KSM_ADVISOR_SCAN_TIME due to the assignments in
advisor_mode_store().

mm: update core kernel code to use vm_flags_t consistently
The core kernel code is currently very inconsistent in its use of vm_flags_t vs. unsigned long. This prevents us from changing the type of vm_flags_t in the future and is simply not correct, so correct this. While this results in rather a lot of churn, it is a critical pre-requisite for a future planned change to VMA flag type. Additionally, update VMA userland tests to account for the changes. To make review easier and to break things into smaller parts, driver and architecture-specific changes is left for a subsequent commit. The code has been adjusted to cascade the changes across all calling code as far as is needed. We will adjust architecture-specific and driver code in a subsequent patch. Overall, this patch does not introduce any functional change.

mm: prevent KSM from breaking VMA merging for new VMAs
If a user wishes to enable KSM mergeability for an entire process and all
fork/exec'd processes that come after it, they use the prctl()
PR_SET_MEMORY_MERGE operation.
This defaults all newly mapped VMAs to have the VM_MERGEABLE VMA flag set
(in order to indicate they are KSM mergeable), as well as setting this
flag for all existing VMAs and propagating this across fork/exec.
However it also breaks VMA merging for new VMAs, both in the process and
all forked (and fork/exec'd) child processes.
This is because when a new mapping is proposed, the flags specified will
never have VM_MERGEABLE set. However all adjacent VMAs will already have
VM_MERGEABLE set, rendering VMAs unmergeable by default.
To work around this, we try to set the VM_MERGEABLE flag prior to
attempting a merge. In the case of brk() this can always be done.
However on mmap() things are more complicated - while KSM is not supported
for MAP_SHARED file-backed mappings, it is supported for MAP_PRIVATE
file-backed mappings.
These mappings may have deprecated .mmap() callbacks specified which
could, in theory, adjust flags and thus KSM eligibility.
So we check to determine whether this is possible. If not, we set
VM_MERGEABLE prior to the merge attempt on mmap(), otherwise we retain the
previous behaviour.
This fixes VMA merging for all new anonymous mappings, which covers the
majority of real-world cases, so we should see a significant improvement
in VMA mergeability.
For MAP_PRIVATE file-backed mappings, those which implement the
.mmap_prepare() hook and shmem are both known to be safe, so we allow
these, disallowing all other cases.
Also add stubs for newly introduced function invocations to VMA userland
testing.

mm: ksm: have KSM VMA checks not require a VMA pointer
Patch series "mm: ksm: prevent KSM from breaking merging of new VMAs", v3. When KSM-by-default is established using prctl(PR_SET_MEMORY_MERGE), this defaults all newly mapped VMAs to having VM_MERGEABLE set, and thus makes them available to KSM for samepage merging. It also sets VM_MERGEABLE in all existing VMAs. However this causes an issue upon mapping of new VMAs - the initial flags will never have VM_MERGEABLE set when attempting a merge with adjacent VMAs (this is set later in the mmap() logic), and adjacent VMAs will ALWAYS have VM_MERGEABLE set. This renders all newly mapped VMAs unmergeable. To avoid this, this series performs the check for PR_SET_MEMORY_MERGE far earlier in the mmap() logic, prior to the merge being attempted. However we run into complexity with the depreciated .mmap() callback - if a driver hooks this, it might change flags which adjust KSM merge eligibility. We have to worry about this because, while KSM is only applicable to private mappings, this includes both anonymous and MAP_PRIVATE-mapped file-backed mappings. This isn't a problem for brk(), where the VMA must be anonymous. However in mmap() we must be conservative - if the VMA is anonymous then we can always proceed, however if not, we permit only shmem mappings (whose .mmap hook does not affect KSM eligibility) and drivers which implement .mmap_prepare() (invoked prior to the KSM eligibility check). If we can't be sure of the driver changing things, then we maintain the same behaviour of performing the KSM check later in the mmap() logic (and thus losing new VMA mergeability). A great many use-cases for this logic will use anonymous mappings any rate, so this change should already cover the majority of actual KSM use-cases. This patch (of 4): In subsequent commits we are going to determine KSM eligibility prior to a VMA being constructed, at which point we will of course not yet have access to a VMA pointer. It is trivial to boil down the check logic to be parameterised on mm_struct, file and VMA flags, so do so. As a part of this change, additionally expose and use file_is_dax() to determine whether a file is being mapped under a DAX inode.

mm/ksm: handle device-exclusive entries correctly in write_protect_page()
Ever since commit |

ksm: add ksm involvement information for each process
In /proc/<pid>/ksm_stat, add two extra ksm involvement items including
KSM_mergeable and KSM_merge_any. It helps administrators to better know
the system's KSM behavior at process level.
ksm_merge_any: yes/no
whether the process'mm is added by prctl() into the candidate list
of KSM or not, and fully enabled at process level.
ksm_mergeable: yes/no
whether any VMAs of the process'mm are currently applicable to KSM.
Purpose
=======
These two items are just to improve the observability of KSM at process
level, so that users can know if a certain process has enabled KSM.
For example, if without these two items, when we look at
/proc/<pid>/ksm_stat and there's no merging pages found, We are not sure
whether it is because KSM was not enabled or because KSM did not
successfully merge any pages.
Although "mg" in /proc/<pid>/smaps indicate VM_MERGEABLE, it's opaque
and not very obvious for non professionals.

Let's use folio_walk instead, for example avoiding taking temporary folio references if the folio does obviously not even apply and getting rid of one more follow_page() user. We cannot move all handling under the PTL, so leave the rmap handling (which implies an allocation) out. Note that zeropages obviously don't apply: old code could just have specified FOLL_DUMP. Further, we don't care about losing the secretmem check in follow_page(): these are never anon pages and vma_ksm_compatible() would never consider secretmem vmas (VM_SHARED | VM_MAYSHARE must be set for secretmem, see secretmem_mmap()).

mm: add MAP_DROPPABLE for designating always lazily freeable mappings
The vDSO getrandom() implementation works with a buffer allocated with a
new system call that has certain requirements:
- It shouldn't be written to core dumps.
* Easy: VM_DONTDUMP.
- It should be zeroed on fork.
* Easy: VM_WIPEONFORK.
- It shouldn't be written to swap.
* Uh-oh: mlock is rlimited.
* Uh-oh: mlock isn't inherited by forks.
- It shouldn't reserve actual memory, but it also shouldn't crash when
page faulting in memory if none is available
* Uh-oh: VM_NORESERVE means segfaults.
It turns out that the vDSO getrandom() function has three really nice
characteristics that we can exploit to solve this problem:
1) Due to being wiped during fork(), the vDSO code is already robust to
having the contents of the pages it reads zeroed out midway through
the function's execution.
2) In the absolute worst case of whatever contingency we're coding for,
we have the option to fallback to the getrandom() syscall, and
everything is fine.
3) The buffers the function uses are only ever useful for a maximum of
60 seconds -- a sort of cache, rather than a long term allocation.
These characteristics mean that we can introduce VM_DROPPABLE, which
has the following semantics:
a) It never is written out to swap.
b) Under memory pressure, mm can just drop the pages (so that they're
zero when read back again).
c) It is inherited by fork.
d) It doesn't count against the mlock budget, since nothing is locked.
e) If there's not enough memory to service a page fault, it's not fatal,
and no signal is sent.
This way, allocations used by vDSO getrandom() can use:
VM_DROPPABLE | VM_DONTDUMP | VM_WIPEONFORK | VM_NORESERVE
And there will be no problem with OOMing, crashing on overcommitment,
using memory when not in use, not wiping on fork(), coredumps, or
writing out to swap.
In order to let vDSO getrandom() use this, expose these via mmap(2) as
MAP_DROPPABLE.
Note that this involves removing the MADV_FREE special case from
sort_folio(), which according to Yu Zhao is unnecessary and will simply
result in an extra call to shrink_folio_list() in the worst case. The
chunk removed reenables the swapbacked flag, which we don't want for
VM_DROPPABLE, and we can't conditionalize it here because there isn't a
vma reference available.
Finally, the provided self test ensures that this is working as desired.

mm: move memory_failure_queue() into copy_mc_[user]_highpage()
Patch series "mm: migrate: support poison recover from migrate folio", v5.
The folio migration is widely used in kernel, memory compaction, memory
hotplug, soft offline page, numa balance, memory demote/promotion, etc,
but once access a poisoned source folio when migrating, the kernel will
panic.
There is a mechanism in the kernel to recover from uncorrectable memory
errors, ARCH_HAS_COPY_MC(eg, Machine Check Safe Memory Copy on x86), which
is already used in NVDIMM or core-mm paths(eg, CoW, khugepaged, coredump,
ksm copy), see copy_mc_to_{user,kernel}, copy_mc_{user_}highpage callers.
This series of patches provide the recovery mechanism from folio copy for
the widely used folio migration. Please note, because folio migration is
no guarantee of success, so we could chose to make folio migration
tolerant of memory failures, adding folio_mc_copy() which is a #MC
versions of folio_copy(), once accessing a poisoned source folio, we could
return error and make the folio migration fail, and this could avoid the
similar panic shown below.

This patch (of 5):
There is a memory_failure_queue() call after copy_mc_[user]_highpage(),
see callers, eg, CoW/KSM page copy, it is used to mark the source page as
h/w poisoned and unmap it from other tasks, and the upcomming poison
recover from migrate folio will do the similar thing, so let's move the
memory_failure_queue() into the copy_mc_[user]_highpage() instead of
adding it into each user, this should also enhance the handling of
poisoned page in khugepaged.

mm/ksm: optimize the chain()/chain_prune() interfaces
Now the implementation of stable_node_dup() causes chain()/chain_prune() interfaces and usages are overcomplicated. Why? stable_node_dup() only find and return a candidate stable_node for sharing, so the users have to recheck using stable_node_dup_any() if any non-candidate stable_node exist. And try to ksm_get_folio() from it again. Actually, stable_node_dup() can just return a best stable_node as it can, then the users can check if it's a candidate for sharing or not. The code is simplified too and fewer corner cases: such as stable_node and stable_node_dup can't be NULL if returned tree_folio is not NULL.

mm/ksm: don't waste time searching stable tree for fast changing page
The code flow in cmp_and_merge_page() is suboptimal for handling the ksm
page and non-ksm page at the same time. For example:
- ksm page
1. Mostly just return if this ksm page is not migrated and this rmap_item
has been on the rmap hlist. Or we have to fix this rmap_item mapping.
2. But we absolutely don't need to checksum for this ksm page, since it
can't change.
- non-ksm page
1. First don't need to waste time searching stable tree if fast changing.
2. Should try to merge with zero page before search the stable tree.
3. Then search stable tree to find mergeable ksm page.
This patch optimizes the code flow so the handling differences between ksm
page and non-ksm page become clearer and more efficient too.

mm/ksm: refactor out try_to_merge_with_zero_page()
Patch series "mm/ksm: cmp_and_merge_page() optimizations and cleanup", v2. This series mainly optimizes cmp_and_merge_page() to have more efficient separate code flow for ksm page and non-ksm anon page. - ksm page: don't need to calculate the checksum obviously. - anon page: don't need to search stable tree if changing fast and try to merge with zero page before searching ksm page on stable tree. Please see the patch-2 for details. Patch-3 is cleanup also a little optimization for the chain()/chain_prune interfaces, which made the stable_tree_search()/stable_tree_insert() over complex. I have done simple testing using "hackbench -g 1 -l 300000" (maybe I need to use a better workload) on my machine, have seen a little CPU usage decrease of ksmd and some improvements of cmp_and_merge_page() latency: We can see the latency of cmp_and_merge_page() when handling non-ksm anon pages has been improved. This patch (of 3): In preparation for later changes, refactor out a new function called try_to_merge_with_zero_page(), which tries to merge with zero page.

mm/ksm: fix ksm_zero_pages accounting
We normally ksm_zero_pages++ in ksmd when page is merged with zero page, but ksm_zero_pages-- is done from page tables side, where there is no any accessing protection of ksm_zero_pages. So we can read very exceptional value of ksm_zero_pages in rare cases, such as -1, which is very confusing to users. Fix it by changing to use atomic_long_t, and the same case with the mm->ksm_zero_pages. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20240528-b4-ksm-counters-v3-2-34bb358fdc13@linux.dev Fixes: |

mm/ksm: fix ksm_pages_scanned accounting
Patch series "mm/ksm: fix some accounting problems", v3.
We encountered some abnormal ksm_pages_scanned and ksm_zero_pages during
some random tests.
1. ksm_pages_scanned unchanged even ksmd scanning has progress.
2. ksm_zero_pages maybe -1 in some rare cases.
This patch (of 2):
During testing, I found ksm_pages_scanned is unchanged although the
scan_get_next_rmap_item() did return valid rmap_item that is not NULL.
The reason is the scan_get_next_rmap_item() will return NULL after a full
scan, so ksm_do_scan() just return without accounting of the
ksm_pages_scanned.
Fix it by just putting ksm_pages_scanned accounting in that loop, and it
will be accounted more timely if that loop would last for a long time.

mm/ksm: remove page_mapcount() usage in stable_tree_search()
We want to limit the use of page_mapcount() to the places where it is absolutely necessary. If our folio has a stable node, it is a (small) KSM folio -- see folio_stable_node(). Let's use folio_mapcount() in stable_tree_search() instead, which results in no functional change. The mapcount > 1 check is a bit confusing, because that's usually a check for page sharing. Looks like the reason is that we are guaranteed to not exceed ksm_max_page_sharing for the tree KSM folio when merging with that. Let's update the documentation to make that clearer.

mm/ksm: add ksm_get_folio
Patch series "transfer page to folio in KSM". This is the first part of page to folio transfer on KSM. Since only single page could be stored in KSM, we could safely transfer stable tree pages to folios. This patchset could reduce ksm.o 57kbytes from 2541776 bytes on latest akpm/mm-stable branch with CONFIG_DEBUG_VM enabled. It pass the KSM testing in LTP and kernel selftest. Thanks for Matthew Wilcox and David Hildenbrand's suggestions and comments! This patch (of 10): The ksm only contains single pages, so we could add a new func ksm_get_folio for get_ksm_page to use folio instead of pages to save a couple of compound_head calls. After all caller replaced, get_ksm_page will be removed.

mm: convert page_try_share_anon_rmap() to folio_try_share_anon_rmap_[pte|pmd]()
Let's convert it like we converted all the other rmap functions. Don't introduce folio_try_share_anon_rmap_ptes() for now, as we don't have a user that wants rmap batching in sight. Pretty easy to add later. All users are easy to convert -- only ksm.c doesn't use folios yet but that is left for future work -- so let's just do it in a single shot. While at it, turn the BUG_ON into a WARN_ON_ONCE. Note that page_try_share_anon_rmap() so far didn't care about pte/pmd mappings (no compound parameter). We're changing that so we can perform better sanity checks and make the code actually more readable/consistent. For example, __folio_rmap_sanity_checks() will make sure that a PMD range actually falls completely into the folio.
