We no longer need to keep track of how many shadow entries are present in
a mapping. This saves a few writes to the inode and memory barriers.

Patch series "Remove nrexceptional tracking", v2.
We actually use nrexceptional for very little these days. It's a minor
pain to keep in sync with nrpages, but the pain becomes much bigger with
the THP patches because we don't know how many indices a shadow entry
occupies. It's easier to just remove it than keep it accurate.
Also, we save 8 bytes per inode which is nothing to sneeze at; on my
laptop, it would improve shmem_inode_cache from 22 to 23 objects per
16kB, and inode_cache from 26 to 27 objects. Combined, that saves
a megabyte of memory from a combined usage of 25MB for both caches.
Unfortunately, ext4 doesn't cross a magic boundary, so it doesn't save
any memory for ext4.
This patch (of 4):
Instead of checking the two counters (nrpages and nrexceptional), we can
just check whether i_pages is empty.

page_poison=on needs to override init_on_free=1.

- have !ARCH_SUPPORTS_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC arch (like ia64)

That way we get both keys enabled:

There are cases where the page_pool need to refill with pages from the
page allocator. Some workloads cause the page_pool to release pages
instead of recycling these pages.
For these workload it can improve performance to bulk alloc pages from the

For XDP-redirect workload with 100G mlx5 driver (that use page_pool)
redirecting xdp_frame packets into a veth, that does XDP_PASS to create an
SKB from the xdp_frame, which then cannot return the page to the

Patch series "SUNRPC consumer for the bulk page allocator"
This patch set and the measurements below are based on yesterday's
bulk allocator series:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mel/linux.git mm-bulk-rebase-v5r9
The patches change SUNRPC to invoke the array-based bulk allocator
instead of alloc_page().
The micro-benchmark results are promising. I ran a mixture of 256KB
reads and writes over NFSv3. The server's kernel is built with KASAN
enabled, so the comparison is exaggerated but I believe it is still
valid.
I instrumented svc_recv() to measure the latency of each call to
svc_alloc_arg() and report it via a trace point. The following results
are averages across the trace events.
Single page: 25.007 us per call over 532,571 calls
Bulk list: 6.258 us per call over 517,034 calls
Bulk array: 4.590 us per call over 517,442 calls
This patch (of 2)
Refactor:
I'm about to use the loop variable @i for something else.
As far as the "i++" is concerned, that is a post-increment. The
value of @i is not used subsequently, so the increment operator
is unnecessary and can be removed.
Also note that nfsd_read_actor() was renamed nfsd_splice_actor()
by commit cf8208d0ea ("sendfile: convert nfsd to
splice_direct_to_actor()").

This patch adds a new page allocator interface via alloc_pages_bulk, and
__alloc_pages_bulk_nodemask. A caller requests a number of pages to be
allocated and added to a list.
The API is not guaranteed to return the requested number of pages and
may fail if the preferred allocation zone has limited free memory, the
cpuset changes during the allocation or page debugging decides to fail
an allocation. It's up to the caller to request more pages in batch if
necessary.
Note that this implementation is not very efficient and could be
improved but it would require refactoring. The intent is to make it
available early to determine what semantics are required by different
callers. Once the full semantics are nailed down, it can be refactored.

Patch series "Introduce a bulk order-0 page allocator with two in-tree users", v6.
This series introduces a bulk order-0 page allocator with sunrpc and the
network page pool being the first users. The implementation is not
efficient as semantics needed to be ironed out first. If no other
semantic changes are needed, it can be made more efficient. Despite that,
this is a performance-related for users that require multiple pages for an
operation without multiple round-trips to the page allocator. Quoting the
last patch for the high-speed networking use-case
Kernel XDP stats CPU pps Delta
Baseline XDP-RX CPU total 3,771,046 n/a
List XDP-RX CPU total 3,940,242 +4.49%
Array XDP-RX CPU total 4,249,224 +12.68%
Via the SUNRPC traces of svc_alloc_arg()
Single page: 25.007 us per call over 532,571 calls
Bulk list: 6.258 us per call over 517,034 calls
Bulk array: 4.590 us per call over 517,442 calls
Both potential users in this series are corner cases (NFS and high-speed
networks) so it is unlikely that most users will see any benefit in the
short term. Other potential other users are batch allocations for page
cache readahead, fault around and SLUB allocations when high-order pages
are unavailable. It's unknown how much benefit would be seen by
converting multiple page allocation calls to a single batch or what
difference it may make to headline performance.
Light testing of my own running dbench over NFS passed. Chuck and Jesper
conducted their own tests and details are included in the changelogs.
Patch 1 renames a variable name that is particularly unpopular
Patch 2 adds a bulk page allocator
Patch 3 adds an array-based version of the bulk allocator
Patches 4-5 adds micro-optimisations to the implementation
Patches 6-7 SUNRPC user
Patches 8-9 Network page_pool user
This patch (of 9):
Review feedback of the bulk allocator twice found problems with "alloced"
being a counter for pages allocated. The naming was based on the API name
"alloc" and was based on the idea that verbal communication about malloc
tends to use the fake word "malloced" instead of the fake word mallocated.
To be consistent, this preparation patch renames alloced to allocated in
rmqueue_bulk so the bulk allocator and per-cpu allocator use similar names
when the bulk allocator is introduced.

Currently, debugging CMA allocation failures is quite limited. The most
common source of these failures seems to be page migration which doesn't
provide any useful information on the reason of the failure by itself.
alloc_contig_range can report those failures as it holds a list of
migrate-failed pages.
The information logged by dump_page() has already proven helpful for
debugging allocation issues, like identifying long-term pinnings on
ZONE_MOVABLE or MIGRATE_CMA.
Let's use the dynamic debugging infrastructure, such that we avoid
flooding the logs and creating a lot of noise on frequent
alloc_contig_range() calls. This information is helpful for debugging
only.
There are two ifdefery conditions to support common dyndbg options:
- CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CORE && DYNAMIC_DEBUG_MODULE
It aims for supporting the feature with only specific file with
adding ccflags.
- CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG
It aims for supporting the feature with system wide globally.
A simple example to enable the feature:
Admin could enable the dump like this(by default, disabled)
echo "func alloc_contig_dump_pages +p" > control
Admin could disable it.
echo "func alloc_contig_dump_pages =_" > control
Detail goes Documentation/admin-guide/dynamic-debug-howto.rst
A concern is utility functions in dump_page use inconsistent
loglevels. In the future, we might want to make the loglevels
used inside dump_page() consistent and eventually rework the way
we log the information here. See [1].

Patch series "Rationalise __alloc_pages wrappers", v3.
I was poking around the __alloc_pages variants trying to understand why
they each exist, and couldn't really find a good justification for keeping
__alloc_pages and __alloc_pages_nodemask as separate functions. That led
to getting rid of alloc_pages_current() and then I noticed the
documentation was bad, and then I noticed the mempolicy documentation
wasn't included.
Anyway, this is all cleanups & doc fixes.
This patch (of 7):
We have two masks involved -- the nodemask and the gfp mask, so alloc_mask
is an unclear name.

The naming convention used in include/linux/page-flags-layout.h:
*_SHIFT: the number of bits trying to allocate
*_WIDTH: the number of bits successfully allocated
So when it comes to LAST_CPUPID_WIDTH, we need to check whether all
previous *_WIDTH and LAST_CPUPID_SHIFT can fit into page flags. This
means we need to use NODES_WIDTH, not NODES_SHIFT.

__alloc_contig_migrate_range already has lru_add_drain_all call via
migrate_prep. It's necessary to move LRU taget pages into LRU list to be
able to isolated. However, lru_add_drain_all call after
__alloc_contig_migrate_range is pointless since it has changed source page
freeing from putback_lru_pages to put_page[1].
This patch removes it.

The information that some PFNs are busy is:
a) not helpful for ordinary users: we don't even know *who* called
alloc_contig_range(). This is certainly not worth a pr_info.*().
b) not really helpful for debugging: we don't have any details *why*
these PFNs are busy, and that is what we usually care about.
c) not complete: there are other cases where we fail alloc_contig_range()
using different paths that are not getting recorded.
For example, we reach this path once we succeeded in isolating pageblocks,
but failed to migrate some pages - which can happen easily on ZONE_NORMAL
(i.e., has_unmovable_pages() is racy) but also on ZONE_MOVABLE i.e., we
would have to retry longer to migrate).
For example via virtio-mem when unplugging memory, we can create quite
some noise (especially with ZONE_NORMAL) that is not of interest to users
- it's expected that some allocations may fail as memory is busy.
Let's just drop that pr_info_ratelimit() and rather implement a dynamic
debugging mechanism in the future that can give us a better reason why
alloc_contig_range() failed on specific pages.

Currently, KASAN-KUnit tests can check that a particular annotated part of
code causes a KASAN report. However, they do not check that no unwanted
reports happen between the annotated parts.
This patch implements these checks.
It is done by setting report_data.report_found to false in
kasan_test_init() and at the end of KUNIT_EXPECT_KASAN_FAIL() and then
checking that it remains false at the beginning of
KUNIT_EXPECT_KASAN_FAIL() and in kasan_test_exit().
kunit_add_named_resource() call is moved to kasan_test_init(), and the
value of fail_data.report_expected is kept as false in between
KUNIT_EXPECT_KASAN_FAIL() annotations for consistency.

Patch series "kasan: integrate with init_on_alloc/free", v3.
This patch series integrates HW_TAGS KASAN with init_on_alloc/free by
initializing memory via the same arm64 instruction that sets memory tags.
This is expected to improve HW_TAGS KASAN performance when
init_on_alloc/free is enabled. The exact perfomance numbers are unknown
as MTE-enabled hardware doesn't exist yet.
This patch (of 5):
This change adds an argument to mte_set_mem_tag_range() that allows to
enable memory initialization when settinh the allocation tags. The
implementation uses stzg instruction instead of stg when this argument
indicates to initialize memory.
Combining setting allocation tags with memory initialization will improve
HW_TAGS KASAN performance when init_on_alloc/free is enabled.
This change doesn't integrate memory initialization with KASAN, this is

During boot, all non-reserved memblock memory is exposed to page_alloc via
memblock_free_pages->__free_pages_core(). This results in
kasan_free_pages() being called, which poisons that memory.
Poisoning all that memory lengthens boot time. The most noticeable effect
is observed with the HW_TAGS mode. A boot-time impact may potentially
also affect systems with large amount of RAM.
This patch changes the tag-based modes to not poison the memory during the
memblock->page_alloc transition.
An exception is made for KASAN_GENERIC. Since it marks all new memory as
accessible, not poisoning the memory released from memblock will lead to
KASAN missing invalid boot-time accesses to that memory.
With KASAN_SW_TAGS, as it uses the invalid 0xFE tag as the default tag for
all memory, it won't miss bad boot-time accesses even if the poisoning of
memblock memory is removed.
With KASAN_HW_TAGS, the default memory tags values are unspecified.
Therefore, if memblock poisoning is removed, this KASAN mode will miss the
mentioned type of boot-time bugs with a 1/16 probability. This is taken
as an acceptable trafe-off.
Internally, the poisoning is removed as follows. __free_pages_core() is
used when exposing fresh memory during system boot and when onlining
memory during hotplug. This patch adds a new FPI_SKIP_KASAN_POISON flag
and passes it to __free_pages_ok() through free_pages_prepare() from
__free_pages_core(). If FPI_SKIP_KASAN_POISON is set, kasan_free_pages()
is not called.
All memory allocated normally when the boot is over keeps getting poisoned
as usual.
