Linus Torvalds a552c81ff4 Merge tag 'mm-stable-2026-06-18-09-26' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm
Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:

 - "selftests/mm: clean up build output and verbosity" (Li Wang)

   Remove some noise from the MM selftests build

 - "mm: Free contiguous order-0 pages efficiently" (Ryan Roberts)

   Speed up the freeing of a batch of 0-order pages by first scanning
   them for coalescing opportunities. This is applicable to vfree() and
   to the releasing of frozen pages

 - "mm/damon: introduce DAMOS failed region quota charge ratio"
   (SeongJae Park)

   Address a DAMOS usability issue: The DAMOS quota often exhausts
   prematurely because it charges for all memory attempted, causing slow
   and inconsistent performance when actions fail on unreclaimable
   memory.

   To fix this, a new feature lets users set a smaller, flexible quota
   charge ratio (via a numerator and denominator) for failed regions.
   Since failed actions cause less overhead, reducing their quota cost
   ensures more predictable and efficient DAMOS processing

 - "selftests/cgroup: improve zswap tests robustness and support large
   page sizes" (Li Wang)

   Fix various spurious failures and improves the overall robustness of
   the cgroup zswap selftests

Georgi DjakovandAndrew Morton a2b8d7827f drivers/base/memory: set mem->altmap after successful device registration
If __add_memory_block() fails at xa_store() (under memory pressure for
example), device_unregister() is called, which eventually triggers
memory_block_release() with mem->altmap still set, causing a
WARN_ON(mem->altmap).  This was triggered by modifying virtio-mem driver.

Fix this by delaying the assignment of mem->altmap until after
__add_memory_block() has succeeded.

Muchun SongandAndrew Morton 9b1b295e9f drivers/base/memory: make memory block get/put explicit
Rename the memory block lookup helper to make the acquired reference
explicit, add memory_block_put() to wrap put_device(), remove
find_memory_block(), and use memory_block_get() as the single block-id
based lookup interface.

This makes it clearer to callers that a successful lookup holds a
reference that must be dropped, reducing the chance of forgetting the
matching put and leaking the memory block device reference.

Muchun SongandAndrew Morton 03a2cc1756 drivers/base/memory: fix memory block reference leak in poison accounting
memblk_nr_poison_inc() and memblk_nr_poison_sub() look up a memory block
via find_memory_block_by_id(), which acquires a reference to the memory
block device.

Both helpers use the returned memory block without dropping that
reference, leaking the device reference on each successful lookup.  Drop
the reference after updating nr_hwpoison.

Gregory PriceandAndrew Morton c5c4834513 mm: name the anonymous MMOP enum as enum mmop
Give the MMOP enum (MMOP_OFFLINE, MMOP_ONLINE, etc) a proper type name so
the compiler can help catch invalid values being assigned to variables of
this type.

Leave the existing functions returning int alone to allow for
value-or-error pattern to remain unchanged without churn.

mmop_default_online_type is left as int because it uses the -1 sentinal
value to signal it hasn't been initialized yet.

Keep the uint8_t buffer in offline_and_remove_memory() as-is for space
efficiency, with an explicit cast when we consume the value.

Move the enum definition before the CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG guard so it is
unconditionally available for struct memory_block in memory.h.

No functional change.

Linus Torvalds bf4afc53b7 Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argument
This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using

    git grep -l '\<k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
        xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'

to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.

Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.

For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

Kees Cook 69050f8d6d treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types
This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:

Single allocations:	kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)

Array allocations:	kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)

Flex array allocations:	kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)

(where TYPE may also be *VAR)

The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

Israel BatistaandAndrew Morton ed1f8855dd mm: change type of parameter for memory_notify
memory_notify() is responsible for sending events related to memory
hotplugging to a notification queue.  Since all the events must match one
of the values from the enum memory_block_state, it is appropriate to
change the function parameter type to make this condition explicit at
compile time.

Israel BatistaandAndrew Morton 8bc7ba3d26 mm: change type of state in struct memory_block
The state of a memory block should be restricted to values specified in
the documentation of the memory hotplug API.  However, since the state
field in the memory_block struct was defined as an unsigned long, this
restriction was not enforced at compile time.

With the introduction of the enum memory_block_state, it is now possible
to incorporate the desired semantics in the field declaration and enforce
these restrictions at compile time.

Sumanth KorikkarandHeiko Carstens 300709fbef mm/memory_hotplug: Remove MEM_PREPARE_ONLINE/MEM_FINISH_OFFLINE notifiers
MEM_PREPARE_ONLINE/MEM_FINISH_OFFLINE memory notifiers were introduced
to prepare the transition of memory to and from a physically accessible
state. This enhancement was crucial for implementing the "memmap on memory"
feature for s390.

With introduction of dynamic (de)configuration of hotpluggable memory,
memory can be brought to accessible state before add_memory(). Memory
can be brought to inaccessible state before remove_memory(). Hence,
there is no need of MEM_PREPARE_ONLINE/MEM_FINISH_OFFLINE memory
notifiers anymore.

This basically reverts commit
c5f1e2d189 ("mm/memory_hotplug: introduce MEM_PREPARE_ONLINE/MEM_FINISH_OFFLINE notifiers")
Additionally, apply minor adjustments to the function parameters of
move_pfn_range_to_zone() and mhp_supports_memmap_on_memory() to ensure
compatibility with the latest branch.

Hannes ReineckeandAndrew Morton b8179af120 mm/memory_hotplug: activate node before adding new memory blocks
The sysfs attributes for memory blocks require the node ID to be set and

This also has the nice side effect that the BUG_ON() can be converted into
a WARN_ON() as we now can handle registration errors.

Hannes ReineckeandAndrew Morton c6a809363a drivers/base/memory: add node id parameter to add_memory_block()
Patch series "mm/memory_hotplug: fixup crash during uevent handling", v4.

we have some udev rules trying to read the sysfs attribute 'valid_zones'
during an memory 'add' event, causing a crash in zone_for_pfn_range(). 
Debugging found that mem->nid was set to NUMA_NO_NODE, which crashed in
NODE_DATA(nid).  Further analysis revealed that we're running into a race
with udev event processing: add_memory_resource() has this function calls:

1) __try_online_node()
2) arch_add_memory()
3) create_memory_block_devices()
  -> calls device_register() -> memory 'add' event
4) node_set_online()/__register_one_node()
  -> calls device_register() -> node 'add' event
5) register_memory_blocks_under_node()
  -> sets mem->nid

Which, to the uninitated, is ... weird ...

Why do we try to online the node in 1), but only register the node in 4)
_after_ we have created the memory blocks in 3) ?  And why do we set the
'nid' value in 5), when the uevent (which might need to see the correct
'nid' value) is sent out in 3) ?  There must be a reason, I'm sure ...

So here's a small patchset to fixup uevent ordering.  The first patch adds
a 'nid' parameter to add_memory_blocks() (to avoid mem->nid being
initialized with NUMA_NO_NODE), and the second patch reshuffles the code
in add_memory_resource() to fully initialize the node prior to calling
create_memory_block_devices() so that the node is valid at that time and
uevent processing will see correct values in sysfs.

Donet TomandAndrew Morton 4f745def81 drivers/base/node: optimize memory block registration to reduce boot time
Patch series "drivers/base/node.c: optimization and cleanups", v7.


This patch (of 7)

During node device initialization, `memory blocks` are registered under
each NUMA node.  The `memory blocks` to be registered are identified using
the node's start and end PFNs, which are obtained from the node's pg_data

However, not all PFNs within this range necessarily belong to the same
node—some may belong to other nodes.  Additionally, due to the
discontiguous nature of physical memory, certain sections within a `memory
block` may be absent.

As a result, `memory blocks` that fall between a node's start and end PFNs
may span across multiple nodes, and some sections within those blocks may
be missing.  `Memory blocks` have a fixed size, which is architecture
dependent.

Due to these considerations, the memory block registration is currently
performed as follows:

for_each_online_node(nid):
    start_pfn = pgdat->node_start_pfn;
    end_pfn = pgdat->node_start_pfn + node_spanned_pages;
    for_each_memory_block_between(PFN_PHYS(start_pfn), PFN_PHYS(end_pfn))
        mem_blk = memory_block_id(pfn_to_section_nr(pfn));
        pfn_mb_start=section_nr_to_pfn(mem_blk->start_section_nr)
        pfn_mb_end = pfn_start + memory_block_pfns - 1
        for (pfn = pfn_mb_start; pfn < pfn_mb_end; pfn++):
            if (get_nid_for_pfn(pfn) != nid):
                continue;
            else
                do_register_memory_block_under_node(nid, mem_blk,
                                                        MEMINIT_EARLY);

Here, we derive the start and end PFNs from the node's pg_data, then
determine the memory blocks that may belong to the node.  For each `memory
block` in this range, we inspect all PFNs it contains and check their
associated NUMA node ID.  If a PFN within the block matches the current
node, the memory block is registered under that node.

If CONFIG_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT is enabled, get_nid_for_pfn() performs
a binary search in the `memblock regions` to determine the NUMA node ID
for a given PFN.  If it is not enabled, the node ID is retrieved directly
from the struct page.

On large systems, this process can become time-consuming, especially since
we iterate over each `memory block` and all PFNs within it until a match
is found.  When CONFIG_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT is enabled, the
additional overhead of the binary search increases the execution time
significantly, potentially leading to soft lockups during boot.

In this patch, we iterate over `memblock region` to identify the `memory
blocks` that belong to the current NUMA node.  `memblock regions` are
contiguous memory ranges, each associated with a single NUMA node, and
they do not span across multiple nodes.

for_each_memory_region(r): // r => region
  if (!node_online(r->nid)):
    continue;
  else
    for_each_memory_block_between(r->base, r->base + r->size - 1):
      do_register_memory_block_under_node(r->nid, mem_blk, MEMINIT_EARLY);

We iterate over all memblock regions, and if the node associated with the
region is online, we calculate the start and end memory blocks based on
the region's start and end PFNs.  We then register all the memory blocks
within that range under the region node.

Gregory PriceandAndrew Morton 737e9d0219 memory: implement memory_block_advise/probe_max_size
Patch series "memory,x86,acpi: hotplug memory alignment advisement", v8.

When physical address regions are not aligned to memory block size, the
misaligned portion is lost (stranded capacity).

Block size (min/max/selected) is architecture defined.  Most architectures
tend to use the minimum block size or some simplistic heurist.  On x86,
memory block size increases up to 2GB, and is otherwise fitted to the
alignment of non-hotplug (i.e.  not special purpose memory).

CXL exposes its memory for management through the ACPI CEDT (CXL Early
Detection Table) in a field called the CXL Fixed Memory Window.  Per the
CXL specification, this memory must be aligned to at least 256MB.

When a CFMW aligns on a size less than the block size, this causes a loss
of up to 2GB per CFMW on x86.  It is not uncommon for CFMW to be allocated
per-device - though this behavior is BIOS defined.

This patch set provides 3 things:
 1) implement advise/query functions in driverse/base/memory.c to
    report/query architecture agnostic hotplug block alignment advice.
 2) update x86 memblock size logic to consider the hotplug advice
 3) add code in acpi/numa/srat.c to report CFMW alignment advice

The advisement interfaces are design to be called during arch_init code
prior to allocator and smp_init.  start_kernel will call these through
setup_arch() (via acpi and mm/init_64.c on x86), which occurs prior to
mm_core_init and smp_init - so no need for atomics.

There's an attempt to signal callers to advise() that query has already
occurred, but this is predicated on the notion that query actually occurs
(which presently only happens on the x86 arch).  This is to assist
debugging future users.  Otherwise, the advise() call has been marked
__init to help static discovery of bad call times.

Once query is called the first time, it will always return the same value.

Interfaces return -EBUSY and 0 respectively on systems without hotplug.


This patch (of 3):

Hotplug memory sources may have opinions on what the memblock size should
be - usually for alignment purposes.  For example, CXL memory extents can
be 256MB with a matching alignment.  If this size/alignment is smaller
than the block size, it can result in stranded capacity.

Implement memory_block_advise_max_size for use prior to allocator init,
for software to advise the system on the max block size.

Implement memory_block_probe_max_size for use by arch init code to
calculate the best block size.  Use of advice is architecture defined.

The probe value can never change after first probe.  Calls to advise after
probe will return -EBUSY to aid debugging.

On systems without hotplug, always return -ENODEV and 0 respectively.

Gavin ShanandGreg Kroah-Hartman b9792abb76 drivers/base/memory: Avoid overhead from for_each_present_section_nr()
for_each_present_section_nr() was introduced to add_boot_memory_block()
by commit 61659efdb3 ("drivers/base/memory: improve add_boot_memory_block()").
It causes unnecessary overhead when the present sections are really
sparse. next_present_section_nr() called by the macro to find the next
present section, which is far away from the spanning sections in the
specified block. Too much time consumed by next_present_section_nr()
in this case, which can lead to softlockup as observed by Aditya Gupta
on IBM Power10 machine.

Gavin ShanandAndrew Morton 61659efdb3 drivers/base/memory: improve add_boot_memory_block()
Patch series "drivers/base/memory: Two cleanups", v3.

Two cleanups to drivers/base/memory.


This patch (of 2)L

It's unnecessary to count the present sections for the specified block
since the block will be added if any section in the block is present. 
Besides, for_each_present_section_nr() can be reused as Andrew Morton
suggested.

Improve by using for_each_present_section_nr() and dropping the
unnecessary @section_count.

No functional changes intended.

Gregory PriceandAndrew Morton 44d46b76c3 mm: add build-time option for hotplug memory default online type
Memory hotplug presently auto-onlines memory into a zone the kernel deems
appropriate if CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG_DEFAULT_ONLINE=y.

The memhp_default_state boot param enables runtime config, but it's not
possible to do this at build-time.

Remove CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG_DEFAULT_ONLINE, and replace it with
CONFIG_MHP_DEFAULT_ONLINE_TYPE_* choices that sync with the boot param.

Selections:
  CONFIG_MHP_DEFAULT_ONLINE_TYPE_OFFLINE
    => mhp_default_online_type = "offline"
       Memory will not be onlined automatically.

  CONFIG_MHP_DEFAULT_ONLINE_TYPE_ONLINE_AUTO
    => mhp_default_online_type = "online"
       Memory will be onlined automatically in a zone deemed.
       appropriate by the kernel.

  CONFIG_MHP_DEFAULT_ONLINE_TYPE_ONLINE_KERNEL
    => mhp_default_online_type = "online_kernel"
       Memory will be onlined automatically.
       The zone may allow kernel data (e.g. ZONE_NORMAL).

  CONFIG_MHP_DEFAULT_ONLINE_TYPE_ONLINE_MOVABLE
    => mhp_default_online_type = "online_movable"
       Memory will be onlined automatically.
       The zone will be ZONE_MOVABLE.

Default to CONFIG_MHP_DEFAULT_ONLINE_TYPE_OFFLINE to match the existing
default CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG_DEFAULT_ONLINE=n behavior.

Existing users of CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG_DEFAULT_ONLINE=y should use
CONFIG_MHP_DEFAULT_ONLINE_TYPE_ONLINE_AUTO.

Sourabh JainandMichael Ellerman 79365026f8 crash: add a new kexec flag for hotplug support
Commit a72bbec70d ("crash: hotplug support for kexec_load()")
introduced a new kexec flag, `KEXEC_UPDATE_ELFCOREHDR`. Kexec tool uses
this flag to indicate to the kernel that it is safe to modify the
elfcorehdr of the kdump image loaded using the kexec_load system call.

However, it is possible that architectures may need to update kexec
segments other then elfcorehdr. For example, FDT (Flatten Device Tree)
on PowerPC. Introducing a new kexec flag for every new kexec segment
may not be a good solution. Hence, a generic kexec flag bit,
`KEXEC_CRASH_HOTPLUG_SUPPORT`, is introduced to share the CPU/Memory
hotplug support intent between the kexec tool and the kernel for the
kexec_load system call.

Now we have two kexec flags that enables crash hotplug support for
kexec_load system call. First is KEXEC_UPDATE_ELFCOREHDR (only used in
x86), and second is KEXEC_CRASH_HOTPLUG_SUPPORT (for all architectures).

To simplify the process of finding and reporting the crash hotplug
support the following changes are introduced.

1. Define arch specific function to process the kexec flags and
   determine crash hotplug support

2. Rename the @update_elfcorehdr member of struct kimage to
   @hotplug_support and populate it for both kexec_load and
   kexec_file_load syscalls, because architecture can update more than
   one kexec segment

3. Let generic function crash_check_hotplug_support report hotplug
   support for loaded kdump image based on value of @hotplug_support

To bring the x86 crash hotplug support in line with the above points,
the following changes have been made:

- Introduce the arch_crash_hotplug_support function to process kexec
  flags and determine crash hotplug support

- Remove the arch_crash_hotplug_[cpu|memory]_support functions

Sumanth KorikkarandAndrew Morton c5f1e2d189 mm/memory_hotplug: introduce MEM_PREPARE_ONLINE/MEM_FINISH_OFFLINE notifiers
Patch series "implement "memmap on memory" feature on s390".

This series provides "memmap on memory" support on s390 platform.  "memmap
on memory" allows struct pages array to be allocated from the hotplugged
memory range instead of allocating it from main system memory.

s390 currently preallocates struct pages array for all potentially
possible memory, which ensures memory onlining always succeeds, but with
the cost of significant memory consumption from the available system
memory during boottime.  In certain extreme configuration, this could lead
to ipl failure.

"memmap on memory" ensures struct pages array are populated from self
contained hotplugged memory range instead of depleting the available
system memory and this could eliminate ipl failure on s390 platform.

On other platforms, system might go OOM when the physically hotplugged
memory depletes the available memory before it is onlined.  Hence, "memmap
on memory" feature was introduced as described in commit a08a2ae346
("mm,memory_hotplug: allocate memmap from the added memory range").

Unlike other architectures, s390 memory blocks are not physically
accessible until it is online.  To make it physically accessible two new
memory notifiers MEM_PREPARE_ONLINE / MEM_FINISH_OFFLINE are added and
this notifier lets the hypervisor inform that the memory should be made
physically accessible.  This allows for "memmap on memory" initialization
during memory hotplug onlining phase, which is performed before calling
MEM_GOING_ONLINE notifier.

Patch 1 introduces MEM_PREPARE_ONLINE/MEM_FINISH_OFFLINE memory notifiers
to prepare the transition of memory to and from a physically accessible
state.  New mhp_flag MHP_OFFLINE_INACCESSIBLE is introduced to ensure
altmap cannot be written when adding memory - before it is set online. 
This enhancement is crucial for implementing the "memmap on memory"
feature for s390 in a subsequent patch.

Patches 2 allocates vmemmap pages from self-contained memory range for
s390.  It allocates memory map (struct pages array) from the hotplugged
memory range, rather than using system memory by passing altmap to vmemmap
functions.

Patch 3 removes unhandled memory notifier types on s390.

Patch 4 implements MEM_PREPARE_ONLINE/MEM_FINISH_OFFLINE memory notifiers
on s390.  MEM_PREPARE_ONLINE memory notifier makes memory block physical
accessible via sclp assign command.  The notifier ensures self-contained
memory maps are accessible and hence enabling the "memmap on memory" on
s390.  MEM_FINISH_OFFLINE memory notifier shifts the memory block to an
inaccessible state via sclp unassign command.

Patch 5 finally enables MHP_MEMMAP_ON_MEMORY on s390.


This patch (of 5):

Introduce MEM_PREPARE_ONLINE/MEM_FINISH_OFFLINE memory notifiers to
prepare the transition of memory to and from a physically accessible
state.  This enhancement is crucial for implementing the "memmap on
memory" feature for s390 in a subsequent patch.

Platforms such as x86 can support physical memory hotplug via ACPI.  When
there is physical memory hotplug, ACPI event leads to the memory addition
with the following callchain:

acpi_memory_device_add()
  -> acpi_memory_enable_device()
     -> __add_memory()

After this, the hotplugged memory is physically accessible, and altmap
support prepared, before the "memmap on memory" initialization in
memory_block_online() is called.

On s390, memory hotplug works in a different way.  The available hotplug
memory has to be defined upfront in the hypervisor, but it is made
physically accessible only when the user sets it online via sysfs,
currently in the MEM_GOING_ONLINE notifier.  This is too late and "memmap
on memory" initialization is performed before calling MEM_GOING_ONLINE
notifier.

During the memory hotplug addition phase, altmap support is prepared and
during the memory onlining phase s390 requires memory to be physically
accessible and then subsequently initiate the "memmap on memory"
initialization process.

The memory provider will handle new MEM_PREPARE_ONLINE /
MEM_FINISH_OFFLINE notifications and make the memory accessible.

The mhp_flag MHP_OFFLINE_INACCESSIBLE is introduced and is relevant when
used along with MHP_MEMMAP_ON_MEMORY, because the altmap cannot be written
(e.g., poisoned) when adding memory -- before it is set online.  This
allows for adding memory with an altmap that is not currently made
available by a hypervisor.  When onlining that memory, the hypervisor can
be instructed to make that memory accessible via the new notifiers and the
onlining phase will not require any memory allocations, which is helpful
in low-memory situations.

All architectures ignore unknown memory notifiers.  Therefore, the
introduction of these new notifiers does not result in any functional
modifications across architectures.
