Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
 "Most of the MM queue. A few things are still pending.

  Liam's maple tree rework didn't make it. This has resulted in a few
  other minor patch series being held over for next time.

  Multi-gen LRU still isn't merged as we were waiting for mapletree to
  stabilize. The current plan is to merge MGLRU into -mm soon and to
  later reintroduce mapletree, with a view to hopefully getting both
  into 6.1-rc1.

  Summary:

   - The usual batches of cleanups from Baoquan He, Muchun Song, Miaohe
     Lin, Yang Shi, Anshuman Khandual and Mike Rapoport

   - Some kmemleak fixes from Patrick Wang and Waiman Long

   - DAMON updates from SeongJae Park

   - memcg debug/visibility work from Roman Gushchin

   - vmalloc speedup from Uladzislau Rezki

   - more folio conversion work from Matthew Wilcox

   - enhancements for coherent device memory mapping from Alex Sierra

   - addition of shared pages tracking and CoW support for fsdax, from
     Shiyang Ruan

   - hugetlb optimizations from Mike Kravetz

   - Mel Gorman has contributed some pagealloc changes to improve
     latency and realtime behaviour.

   - mprotect soft-dirty checking has been improved by Peter Xu

   - Many other singleton patches all over the place"

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
"Load-balancing improvements:

   - Improve NUMA balancing on AMD Zen systems for affine workloads.

   - Improve the handling of reduced-capacity CPUs in load-balancing.

   - Energy Model improvements: fix & refine all the energy fairness
     metrics (PELT), and remove the conservative threshold requiring 6%
     energy savings to migrate a task. Doing this improves power
     efficiency for most workloads, and also increases the reliability
     of energy-efficiency scheduling.

   - Optimize/tweak select_idle_cpu() to spend (much) less time
     searching for an idle CPU on overloaded systems. There's reports of
     several milliseconds spent there on large systems with large
     workloads ...

     [ Since the search logic changed, there might be behavioral side
       effects. ]

   - Improve NUMA imbalance behavior. On certain systems with spare
     capacity, initial placement of tasks is non-deterministic, and such
     an artificial placement imbalance can persist for a long time,
     hurting (and sometimes helping) performance.

     The fix is to make fork-time task placement consistent with runtime
     NUMA balancing placement.

     Note that some performance regressions were reported against this,
     caused by workloads that are not memory bandwith limited, which
     benefit from the artificial locality of the placement bug(s). Mel
     Gorman's conclusion, with which we concur, was that consistency is
     better than random workload benefits from non-deterministic bugs:

        "Given there is no crystal ball and it's a tradeoff, I think
         it's better to be consistent and use similar logic at both fork
         time and runtime even if it doesn't have universal benefit."

   - Improve core scheduling by fixing a bug in
     sched_core_update_cookie() that caused unnecessary forced idling.

   - Improve wakeup-balancing by allowing same-LLC wakeup of idle CPUs
     for newly woken tasks.

   - Fix a newidle balancing bug that introduced unnecessary wakeup
     latencies.

  ABI improvements/fixes:

   - Do not check capabilities and do not issue capability check denial
     messages when a scheduler syscall doesn't require privileges. (Such
     as increasing niceness.)

   - Add forced-idle accounting to cgroups too.

   - Fix/improve the RSEQ ABI to not just silently accept unknown flags.
     (No existing tooling is known to have learned to rely on the
     previous behavior.)

   - Depreciate the (unused) RSEQ_CS_FLAG_NO_RESTART_ON_* flags.

  Optimizations:

   - Optimize & simplify leaf_cfs_rq_list()

   - Micro-optimize set_nr_{and_not,if}_polling() via try_cmpxchg().

  Misc fixes & cleanups:

   - Fix the RSEQ self-tests on RISC-V and Glibc 2.35 systems.

   - Fix a full-NOHZ bug that can in some cases result in the tick not
     being re-enabled when the last SCHED_RT task is gone from a
     runqueue but there's still SCHED_OTHER tasks around.

   - Various PREEMPT_RT related fixes.

   - Misc cleanups & smaller fixes"

Here the kworker is waiting on msdos_sb_info::s_lock which is held by
tar which is in turn waiting for a buffer which is locked waiting to be
flushed, but this operation is plugged in the kworker.

The lock is a normal struct mutex, so tsk_is_pi_blocked() will always
return false on !RT and thus the behaviour changes for RT.

It seems that the intent here is to skip blk_flush_plug() in the case
where a non-preemptible lock (such as a spinlock) has been converted to
a rtmutex on RT, which is the case covered by the SM_RTLOCK_WAIT
schedule flag.  But sched_submit_work() is only called from schedule()
which is never called in this scenario, so the check can simply be
deleted.

Looking at the history of the -rt patchset, in fact this change was
present from v5.9.1-rt20 until being dropped in v5.13-rt1 as it was part
of a larger patch [1] most of which was replaced by commit b4bfa3fcfe
("sched/core: Rework the __schedule() preempt argument").

As described in [1]:

   The schedule process must distinguish between blocking on a regular
   sleeping lock (rwsem and mutex) and a RT-only sleeping lock (spinlock
   and rwlock):
   - rwsem and mutex must flush block requests (blk_schedule_flush_plug())
     even if blocked on a lock. This can not deadlock because this also
     happens for non-RT.
     There should be a warning if the scheduling point is within a RCU read
     section.

   - spinlock and rwlock must not flush block requests. This will deadlock
     if the callback attempts to acquire a lock which is already acquired.
     Similarly to being preempted, there should be no warning if the
     scheduling point is within a RCU read section.

and with the tsk_is_pi_blocked() in the scheduler path, we hit the first
issue.

when the system is overloaded.

The following histogram is the time spent in select_idle_cpu(),
when running 224 instances of netperf on a system with 112 CPUs

The time spent in select_idle_cpu() is visible to netperf and might have a negative
impact.

[Symptom analysis]
The patch [1] from Mel Gorman has been applied to track the efficiency
of select_idle_sibling. Copy the indicators here:

SIS Search Efficiency(se_eff%):
        A ratio expressed as a percentage of runqueues scanned versus
        idle CPUs found. A 100% efficiency indicates that the target,
        prev or recent CPU of a task was idle at wakeup. The lower the
        efficiency, the more runqueues were scanned before an idle CPU
        was found.

SIS Domain Search Efficiency(dom_eff%):
        Similar, except only for the slower SIS
	patch.

SIS Fast Success Rate(fast_rate%):
        Percentage of SIS that used target, prev or
	recent CPUs.

SIS Success rate(success_rate%):
        Percentage of scans that found an idle CPU.

The test is based on Aubrey's schedtests tool, including netperf, hackbench,
schbench and tbench.

According to the test above, if the system becomes busy, the
SIS Search Efficiency(se_eff%) drops significantly. Although some
benchmarks would finally find an idle CPU(success_rate% = 100%), it is
doubtful whether it is worth it to search the whole LLC domain.

[Proposal]
It would be ideal to have a crystal ball to answer this question:
How many CPUs must a wakeup path walk down, before it can find an idle
CPU? Many potential metrics could be used to predict the number.
One candidate is the sum of util_avg in this LLC domain. The benefit
of choosing util_avg is that it is a metric of accumulated historic
activity, which seems to be smoother than instantaneous metrics
(such as rq->nr_running). Besides, choosing the sum of util_avg
would help predict the load of the LLC domain more precisely, because
SIS_PROP uses one CPU's idle time to estimate the total LLC domain idle
time.

In summary, the lower the util_avg is, the more select_idle_cpu()
should scan for idle CPU, and vice versa. When the sum of util_avg
in this LLC domain hits 85% or above, the scan stops. The reason to
choose 85% as the threshold is that this is the imbalance_pct(117)
when a LLC sched group is overloaded.

Introduce the quadratic function:

y = SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE - p * x^2
and y'= y / SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE

x is the ratio of sum_util compared to the CPU capacity:
x = sum_util / (llc_weight * SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE)
y' is the ratio of CPUs to be scanned in the LLC domain,
and the number of CPUs to scan is calculated by:

nr_scan = llc_weight * y'

Choosing quadratic function is because:
[1] Compared to the linear function, it scans more aggressively when the
    sum_util is low.
[2] Compared to the exponential function, it is easier to calculate.
[3] It seems that there is no accurate mapping between the sum of util_avg
    and the number of CPUs to be scanned. Use heuristic scan for now.

For a platform with 112 CPUs per LLC, the number of CPUs to scan is:
sum_util%   0    5   15   25  35  45  55   65   75   85   86 ...
scan_nr   112  111  108  102  93  81  65   47   25    1    0 ...

For a platform with 16 CPUs per LLC, the number of CPUs to scan is:
sum_util%   0    5   15   25  35  45  55   65   75   85   86 ...
scan_nr    16   15   15   14  13  11   9    6    3    0    0 ...

Furthermore, to minimize the overhead of calculating the metrics in
select_idle_cpu(), borrow the statistics from periodic load balance.
As mentioned by Abel, on a platform with 112 CPUs per LLC, the
sum_util calculated by periodic load balance after 112 ms would
decay to about 0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 * 0.7 = 8.75%, thus bringing a delay
in reflecting the latest utilization. But it is a trade-off.
Checking the util_avg in newidle load balance would be more frequent,
but it brings overhead - multiple CPUs write/read the per-LLC shared
variable and introduces cache contention. Tim also mentioned that,
it is allowed to be non-optimal in terms of scheduling for the
short-term variations, but if there is a long-term trend in the load
behavior, the scheduler can adjust for that.

When SIS_UTIL is enabled, the select_idle_cpu() uses the nr_scan
calculated by SIS_UTIL instead of the one from SIS_PROP. As Peter and
Mel suggested, SIS_UTIL should be enabled by default.

This patch is based on the util_avg, which is very sensitive to the
CPU frequency invariance. There is an issue that, when the max frequency
has been clamp, the util_avg would decay insanely fast when
the CPU is idle. Commit addca28512 ("cpufreq: intel_pstate: Handle no_turbo
in frequency invariance") could be used to mitigate this symptom, by adjusting
the arch_max_freq_ratio when turbo is disabled. But this issue is still
not thoroughly fixed, because the current code is unaware of the user-specified
max CPU frequency.

[Test result]

netperf and tbench were launched with 25% 50% 75% 100% 125% 150%
175% 200% of CPU number respectively. Hackbench and schbench were launched
by 1, 2 ,4, 8 groups. Each test lasts for 100 seconds and repeats 3 times.

The following is the benchmark result comparison between
baseline:vanilla v5.19-rc1 and compare:patched kernel. Positive compare%
indicates better performance.

Besides, with this patch applied, there is -13% less rq lock contention
in perf-profile.calltrace.cycles-pp._raw_spin_lock.raw_spin_rq_lock_nested
.try_to_wake_up.default_wake_function.woken_wake_function.
This might help explain the performance improvement - Because this patch allows
the waking task to remain on the previous CPU, rather than grabbing other CPUs'
lock.

*Consider the Standard Deviation, this -7.36% regression might not be valid.

Also, a OLTP workload with a commercial RDBMS has been tested, and there
is no significant change.

There were concerns that unbalanced tasks among CPUs would cause problems.
For example, suppose the LLC domain is composed of 8 CPUs, and 7 tasks are
bound to CPU0~CPU6, while CPU7 is idle:

          CPU0    CPU1    CPU2    CPU3    CPU4    CPU5    CPU6    CPU7
util_avg  1024    1024    1024    1024    1024    1024    1024    0

Since the util_avg ratio is 87.5%( = 7/8 ), which is higher than 85%,
select_idle_cpu() will not scan, thus CPU7 is undetected during scan.
But according to Mel, it is unlikely the CPU7 will be idle all the time
because CPU7 could pull some tasks via CPU_NEWLY_IDLE.

lkp(kernel test robot) has reported a regression on stress-ng.sock on a
very busy system. According to the sched_debug statistics, it might be caused
by SIS_UTIL terminates the scan and chooses a previous CPU earlier, and this
might introduce more context switch, especially involuntary preemption, which
impacts a busy stress-ng. This regression has shown that, not all benchmarks
in every scenario benefit from idle CPU scan limit, and it needs further
investigation.

Besides, there is slight regression in hackbench's 16 groups case when the
LLC domain has 16 CPUs. Prateek mentioned that we should scan aggressively
in an LLC domain with 16 CPUs. Because the cost to search for an idle one
among 16 CPUs is negligible. The current patch aims to propose a generic
solution and only considers the util_avg. Something like the below could
be applied on top of the current patch to fulfill the requirement:

	if (llc_weight <= 16)
		nr_scan = nr_scan * 32 / llc_weight;

For LLC domain with 16 CPUs, the nr_scan will be expanded to 2 times large.
The smaller the CPU number this LLC domain has, the larger nr_scan will be
expanded. This needs further investigation.

There is also ongoing work[2] from Abel to filter out the busy CPUs during
wakeup, to further speed up the idle CPU scan. And it could be a following-up
optimization on top of this change.

Pull ptrace_stop cleanups from Eric Biederman:
 "While looking at the ptrace problems with PREEMPT_RT and the problems
  Peter Zijlstra was encountering with ptrace in his freezer rewrite I
  identified some cleanups to ptrace_stop that make sense on their own
  and move make resolving the other problems much simpler.

  The biggest issue is the habit of the ptrace code to change
  task->__state from the tracer to suppress TASK_WAKEKILL from waking up
  the tracee. No other code in the kernel does that and it is straight
  forward to update signal_wake_up and friends to make that unnecessary.

  Peter's task freezer sets frozen tasks to a new state TASK_FROZEN and
  then it stores them by calling "wake_up_state(t, TASK_FROZEN)" relying
  on the fact that all stopped states except the special stop states can
  tolerate spurious wake up and recover their state.

  The state of stopped and traced tasked is changed to be stored in
  task->jobctl as well as in task->__state. This makes it possible for
  the freezer to recover tasks in these special states, as well as
  serving as a general cleanup. With a little more work in that
  direction I believe TASK_STOPPED can learn to tolerate spurious wake
  ups and become an ordinary stop state.

  The TASK_TRACED state has to remain a special state as the registers
  for a process are only reliably available when the process is stopped
  in the scheduler. Fundamentally ptrace needs acess to the saved
  register values of a task.

  There are bunch of semi-random ptrace related cleanups that were found
  while looking at these issues.

  One cleanup that deserves to be called out is from commit 57b6de08b5
  ("ptrace: Admit ptrace_stop can generate spuriuos SIGTRAPs"). This
  makes a change that is technically user space visible, in the handling
  of what happens to a tracee when a tracer dies unexpectedly. According
  to our testing and our understanding of userspace nothing cares that
  spurious SIGTRAPs can be generated in that case"

Pull kthread updates from Eric Biederman:
 "This updates init and user mode helper tasks to be ordinary user mode
  tasks.

  Commit 40966e316f ("kthread: Ensure struct kthread is present for
  all kthreads") caused init and the user mode helper threads that call
  kernel_execve to have struct kthread allocated for them. This struct
  kthread going away during execve in turned made a use after free of
  struct kthread possible.

  Here, commit 343f4c49f2 ("kthread: Don't allocate kthread_struct for
  init and umh") is enough to fix the use after free and is simple
  enough to be backportable.

  The rest of the changes pass struct kernel_clone_args to clean things
  up and cause the code to make sense.

  In making init and the user mode helpers tasks purely user mode tasks
  I ran into two complications. The function task_tick_numa was
  detecting tasks without an mm by testing for the presence of
  PF_KTHREAD. The initramfs code in populate_initrd_image was using
  flush_delayed_fput to ensuere the closing of all it's file descriptors
  was complete, and flush_delayed_fput does not work in a userspace
  thread.

  I have looked and looked and more complications and in my code review
  I have not found any, and neither has anyone else with the code
  sitting in linux-next"

      - Add AMD PerfMonV2 support
      - Add AMD Fam19h Branch Sampling support

  Generic changes:

   - signal: Deliver SIGTRAP on perf event asynchronously if blocked

     Perf instrumentation can be driven via SIGTRAP, but this causes a
     problem when SIGTRAP is blocked by a task & terminate the task.

     Allow user-space to request these signals asynchronously (after
     they get unblocked) & also give the information to the signal
     handler when this happens:

       "To give user space the ability to clearly distinguish
        synchronous from asynchronous signals, introduce
        siginfo_t::si_perf_flags and TRAP_PERF_FLAG_ASYNC (opted for
        flags in case more binary information is required in future).

        The resolution to the problem is then to (a) no longer force the
        signal (avoiding the terminations), but (b) tell user space via
        si_perf_flags if the signal was synchronous or not, so that such
        signals can be handled differently (e.g. let user space decide
        to ignore or consider the data imprecise). "

b265cdebdf sched: coredump.h: clarify the use of MMF_VM_HUGEPAGE
Patch series "Make khugepaged collapse readonly FS THP more consistent", v4.

The readonly FS THP relies on khugepaged to collapse THP for suitable
vmas.  But the behavior is inconsistent for "always" mode
(https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/00f195d4-d039-3cf2-d3a1-a2c88de397a0@suse.cz/).

The "always" mode means THP allocation should be tried all the time and
khugepaged should try to collapse THP all the time.  Of course the
allocation and collapse may fail due to other factors and conditions.

Currently file THP may not be collapsed by khugepaged even though all the
conditions are met.  That does break the semantics of "always" mode.

So make sure readonly FS vmas are registered to khugepaged to fix the
break.

Register suitable vmas in common mmap path, that could cover both readonly
FS vmas and shmem vmas, so remove the khugepaged calls in shmem.c.

The patch 1-7 are minor bug fixes, clean up and preparation patches. 
Patch 8 is the real meat.  

Tested with khugepaged test in selftests and the testcase provided by
Vlastimil Babka in
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/df3b5d1c-a36b-2c73-3e27-99e74983de3a@suse.cz/
by commenting out MADV_HUGEPAGE call.


This patch (of 8):

MMF_VM_HUGEPAGE is set as long as the mm is available for khugepaged by
khugepaged_enter(), not only when VM_HUGEPAGE is set on vma.  Correct the
comment to avoid confusion.

31cae1eaae sched,signal,ptrace: Rework TASK_TRACED, TASK_STOPPED state
Currently ptrace_stop() / do_signal_stop() rely on the special states
TASK_TRACED and TASK_STOPPED resp. to keep unique state. That is, this
state exists only in task->__state and nowhere else.

There's two spots of bother with this:

 - PREEMPT_RT has task->saved_state which complicates matters,
   meaning task_is_{traced,stopped}() needs to check an additional
   variable.

 - An alternative freezer implementation that itself relies on a
   special TASK state would loose TASK_TRACED/TASK_STOPPED and will
   result in misbehaviour.

As such, add additional state to task->jobctl to track this state
outside of task->__state.

NOTE: this doesn't actually fix anything yet, just adds extra state.

--EWB
  * didn't add a unnecessary newline in signal.h
  * Update t->jobctl in signal_wake_up and ptrace_signal_wake_up
    instead of in signal_wake_up_state.  This prevents the clearing
    of TASK_STOPPED and TASK_TRACED from getting lost.
  * Added warnings if JOBCTL_STOPPED or JOBCTL_TRACED are not cleared

2500ad1c7f ptrace: Don't change __state
Stop playing with tsk->__state to remove TASK_WAKEKILL while a ptrace
command is executing.

Instead remove TASK_WAKEKILL from the definition of TASK_TRACED, and
implement a new jobctl flag TASK_PTRACE_FROZEN.  This new flag is set
in jobctl_freeze_task and cleared when ptrace_stop is awoken or in
jobctl_unfreeze_task (when ptrace_stop remains asleep).

In signal_wake_up add __TASK_TRACED to state along with TASK_WAKEKILL
when the wake up is for a fatal signal.  Skip adding __TASK_TRACED
when TASK_PTRACE_FROZEN is not set.  This has the same effect as
changing TASK_TRACED to __TASK_TRACED as all of the wake_ups that use
TASK_KILLABLE go through signal_wake_up.

Handle a ptrace_stop being called with a pending fatal signal.
Previously it would have been handled by schedule simply failing to
sleep.  As TASK_WAKEKILL is no longer part of TASK_TRACED schedule
will sleep with a fatal_signal_pending.   The code in signal_wake_up
guarantees that the code will be awaked by any fatal signal that
codes after TASK_TRACED is set.

Previously the __state value of __TASK_TRACED was changed to
TASK_RUNNING when woken up or back to TASK_TRACED when the code was
left in ptrace_stop.  Now when woken up ptrace_stop now clears
JOBCTL_PTRACE_FROZEN and when left sleeping ptrace_unfreezed_traced
clears JOBCTL_PTRACE_FROZEN.

5bd2e97c86 fork: Generalize PF_IO_WORKER handling
Add fn and fn_arg members into struct kernel_clone_args and test for
them in copy_thread (instead of testing for PF_KTHREAD | PF_IO_WORKER).
This allows any task that wants to be a user space task that only runs
in kernel mode to use this functionality.

The code on x86 is an exception and still retains a PF_KTHREAD test
because x86 unlikely everything else handles kthreads slightly
differently than user space tasks that start with a function.

The functions that created tasks that start with a function
have been updated to set ".fn" and ".fn_arg" instead of
".stack" and ".stack_size".  These functions are fork_idle(),
create_io_thread(), kernel_thread(), and user_mode_thread().

36cb0e1cda fork: Explicity test for idle tasks in copy_thread
The architectures ia64 and parisc have special handling for the idle
thread in copy_process.  Add a flag named idle to kernel_clone_args
and use it to explicity test if an idle process is being created.

Fullfill the expectations of the rest of the copy_thread
implemetations and pass a function pointer in .stack from fork_idle().
This makes what is happening in copy_thread better defined, and is
useful to make idle threads less special.

c5febea095 fork: Pass struct kernel_clone_args into copy_thread
With io_uring we have started supporting tasks that are for most
purposes user space tasks that exclusively run code in kernel mode.

The kernel task that exec's init and tasks that exec user mode
helpers are also user mode tasks that just run kernel code
until they call kernel execve.

Pass kernel_clone_args into copy_thread so these oddball
tasks can be supported more cleanly and easily.

343f4c49f2 kthread: Don't allocate kthread_struct for init and umh
If kthread_is_per_cpu runs concurrently with free_kthread_struct the
kthread_struct that was just freed may be read from.

This bug was introduced by commit 40966e316f ("kthread: Ensure
struct kthread is present for all kthreads").  When kthread_struct
started to be allocated for all tasks that have PF_KTHREAD set.  This
in turn required the kthread_struct to be freed in kernel_execve and
violated the assumption that kthread_struct will have the same
lifetime as the task.

Looking a bit deeper this only applies to callers of kernel_execve
which is just the init process and the user mode helper processes.
These processes really don't want to be kernel threads but are for
historical reasons.  Mostly that copy_thread does not know how to take
a kernel mode function to the process with for processes without
PF_KTHREAD or PF_IO_WORKER set.

Solve this by not allocating kthread_struct for the init process and
the user mode helper processes.

This is done by adding a kthread member to struct kernel_clone_args.
Setting kthread in fork_idle and kernel_thread.  Adding
user_mode_thread that works like kernel_thread except it does not set
kthread.  In fork only allocating the kthread_struct if .kthread is set.

I have looked at kernel/kthread.c and since commit 40966e316f
("kthread: Ensure struct kthread is present for all kthreads") there
have been no assumptions added that to_kthread or __to_kthread will
not return NULL.

There are a few callers of to_kthread or __to_kthread that assume a
non-NULL struct kthread pointer will be returned.  These functions are
kthread_data(), kthread_parmme(), kthread_exit(), kthread(),
kthread_park(), kthread_unpark(), kthread_stop().  All of those functions
can reasonably expected to be called when it is know that a task is a
kthread so that assumption seems reasonable.
