Similar to our MM_CP_DIRTY_ACCT handling for shared, writable mappings, we
can try mapping anonymous pages in a private writable mapping writable if
they are exclusive, the PTE is already dirty, and no special handling
applies. Mapping the anonymous page writable is essentially the same
thing the write fault handler would do in this case.
Special handling is required for uffd-wp and softdirty tracking, so take
care of that properly. Also, leave PROT_NONE handling alone for now; in
the future, we could similarly extend the logic in do_numa_page() or use
pte_mk_savedwrite() here.
While this improves mprotect(PROT_READ)+mprotect(PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE)
performance, it should also be a valuable optimization for uffd-wp, when
un-protecting.
This has been previously suggested by Peter Collingbourne in [1], relevant
in the context of the Scudo memory allocator, before we had
PageAnonExclusive.
This commit doesn't add the same handling for PMDs (i.e., anonymous THP,
anonymous hugetlb); benchmark results from Andrea indicate that there are
minor performance gains, so it's might still be valuable to streamline
that logic for all anonymous pages in the future.
As we now also set MM_CP_DIRTY_ACCT for private mappings, let's rename it
to MM_CP_TRY_CHANGE_WRITABLE, to make it clearer what's actually
happening.

On Android this test is getting stuck in an infinite loop due to
indeterminate behavior:
The local variables steps and signalled were being reset to 1 and 0
respectively after every jump back to sigsetjmp by siglongjmp in the
signal handler. The test was incrementing them and expecting them to
retain their incremented values. The documentation for siglongjmp says:
All accessible objects have values as of the time sigsetjmp() was called,
except that the values of objects of automatic storage duration which are
local to the function containing the invocation of the corresponding
sigsetjmp() which do not have volatile-qualified type and which are
changed between the sigsetjmp() invocation and siglongjmp() call are
indeterminate.
Tagging steps and signalled with volatile enabled the test to pass.

Patch series "Extend DAMOS for Proactive LRU-lists Sorting".
Introduction
============
In short, this patchset 1) extends DAMON-based Operation Schemes (DAMOS)
for low overhead data access pattern based LRU-lists sorting, and 2)
implements a static kernel module for easy use of conservatively-tuned
version of that using the extended DAMOS capability.
Background
----------
As page-granularity access checking overhead could be significant on huge
systems, LRU lists are normally not proactively sorted but partially and
reactively sorted for special events including specific user requests,
system calls and memory pressure. As a result, LRU lists are sometimes
not so perfectly prepared to be used as a trustworthy access pattern
source for some situations including reclamation target pages selection
under sudden memory pressure.
DAMON-based Proactive LRU-lists Sorting
---------------------------------------
Because DAMON can identify access patterns of best-effort accuracy while
inducing only user-specified range of overhead, using DAMON for Proactive
LRU-lists Sorting (PLRUS) could be helpful for this situation. The idea
is quite simple. Find hot pages and cold pages using DAMON, and
prioritize hot pages while deprioritizing cold pages on their LRU-lists.
This patchset extends DAMON to support such schemes by introducing a
couple of new DAMOS actions for prioritizing and deprioritizing memory
regions of specific access patterns on their LRU-lists. In detail, this
patchset simply uses 'mark_page_accessed()' and 'deactivate_page()'
functions for prioritization and deprioritization of pages on their LRU
lists, respectively.
To make the scheme easy to use without complex tuning for common
situations, this patchset further implements a static kernel module called
'DAMON_LRU_SORT' using the extended DAMOS functionality. It proactively
sorts LRU-lists using DAMON with conservatively chosen default
hotness/coldness thresholds and small CPU usage quota limit. That is, the
module under its default parameters will make no harm for common situation
but provide some level of benefit for systems having clear hot/cold access
pattern under only memory pressure while consuming only limited small
portion of CPU time.
Related Works
-------------
Proactive reclamation is well known to be helpful for reducing non-optimal
reclamation target selection caused performance drops. However, proactive
reclamation is not a best option for some cases, because it could incur
additional I/O. For an example, it could be prohitive for systems using
storage devices that total number of writes is limited, or cloud block
storages that charges every I/O.
Some proactive reclamation approaches[1,2] induce a level of memory
pressure using memcg files or swappiness while monitoring PSI. As
reclamation target selection is still relying on the original LRU-lists
mechanism, using DAMON-based proactive reclamation before inducing the
proactive reclamation could allow more memory saving with same level of
performance overhead, or less performance overhead with same level of
memory saving.

Evaluation
==========
In short, PLRUS achieves 10% memory PSI (some) reduction, 14% major page
faults reduction, and 3.74% speedup under memory pressure.
Setup
-----
To show the effect of PLRUS, I run PARSEC3 and SPLASH-2X benchmarks under
below variant systems and measure a few metrics including the runtime of
each workload, number of system-wide major page faults, and system-wide
memory PSI (some).
- orig: v5.18-rc4 based mm-unstable kernel + this patchset, but no DAMON scheme
applied.
- mprs: Same to 'orig' but artificial memory pressure is induced.
- plrus: Same to 'mprs' but a radically tuned PLRUS scheme is applied to the
entire physical address space of the system.
For the artificial memory pressure, I set 'memory.limit_in_bytes' to 75%
of the running workload's peak RSS, wait 1 second, remove the pressure by
setting it to 200% of the peak RSS, wait 10 seconds, and repeat the
procedure until the workload finishes[1]. I use zram based swap device.
The tests are automated[2].

[2] https://github.com/awslabs/damon-tests/blob/next/perf/full_once_config.sh
Radically Tuned PLRUS
---------------------
To show effect of PLRUS on the PARSEC3/SPLASH-2X workloads which runs for
no long time, we use radically tuned version of PLRUS. The version asks
DAMON to do the proactive LRU-lists sorting as below.
1. Find any memory regions shown some accesses (approximately >=20 accesses per
100 sampling) and prioritize pages of the regions on their LRU lists using
up to 2% CPU time. Under the CPU time limit, prioritize regions having
higher access frequency and kept the access frequency longer first.
2. Find any memory regions shown no access for at least >=5 seconds and
deprioritize pages of the rgions on their LRU lists using up to 2% CPU time.
Under the CPU time limit, deprioritize regions that not accessed for longer
time first.
Results
-------
I repeat the tests 25 times and calculate average of the measured numbers.
The results are as below:
metric orig mprs plrus plrus/mprs
runtime_seconds 190.06 292.83 281.87 0.96
pgmajfaults 852.55 8769420.00 7525040.00 0.86
memory_psi_some_us 106911.00 6943420.00 6220920.00 0.90
The first row is for legend. The first cell shows the metric that the
following cells of the row shows. Second, third, and fourth cells show
the metrics under the configs shown at the first row of the cell, and the
fifth cell shows the metric under 'plrus' divided by the metric under
'mprs'. Second row shows the averaged runtime of the workloads in
seconds. Third row shows the number of system-wide major page faults
while the test was ongoing. Fourth row shows the system-wide memory
pressure stall for some processes in microseconds while the test was
ongoing.
In short, PLRUS achieves 10% memory PSI (some) reduction, 14% major page
faults reduction, and 3.74% speedup under memory pressure. We also
confirmed the CPU usage of kdamond was 2.61% of single CPU, which is below
4% as expected.
Sequence of Patches
===================
The first and second patch cleans up DAMON debugfs interface and
DAMOS_PAGEOUT handling code of physical address space monitoring
operations implementation for easier extension of the code.
The thrid and fourth patches implement a new DAMOS action called
'lru_prio', which prioritizes pages under memory regions which have a
user-specified access pattern, and document it, respectively. The fifth
and sixth patches implement yet another new DAMOS action called
'lru_deprio', which deprioritizes pages under memory regions which have a
user-specified access pattern, and document it, respectively.
The seventh patch implements a static kernel module called
'damon_lru_sort', which utilizes the DAMON-based proactive LRU-lists
sorting under conservatively chosen default parameter. Finally, the
eighth patch documents 'damon_lru_sort'.
This patch (of 8):
DAMON debugfs interface assumes users will write 'damos_action' value
directly to the 'schemes' file. This makes adding new 'damos_action' in
the middle of its definition breaks the backward compatibility of DAMON
debugfs interface, as values of some 'damos_action' could be changed. To
mitigate the situation, this commit adds mappings between the user inputs
and 'damos_action' value and makes DAMON debugfs code uses those.

__find_vmap_area() finds a "vmap_area" based on passed address. It scan
the specific "vmap_area_root" rb-tree. Extend the function with one extra
argument, so any tree can be specified where the search has to be done.

A vmap_area can travel between different places. For example
attached/detached to/from different rb-trees. In order to prevent fancy
bugs, initialize a VA's list node after it is removed from the list, so it
pairs with VA's rb_node which is also initialized.

It implies that __alloc_vmap_area() allocates only from the global vmap
space, therefore a list-head and rb-tree, which represent a free vmap
space, are not passed as parameters to this function and are accessed
directly from this function.
Extend the __alloc_vmap_area() and other dependent functions to have a
possibility to allocate from different trees making an interface common
and not specific.

Patch series "Reduce a vmalloc internal lock contention preparation work".
This small serias is preparation work to implement per-cpu vmalloc
allocation in order to reduce a high internal lock contention. This
series does not introduce any functional changes, it is only about
preparation.
This patch (of 5):
Currently link_va() and unlik_va(), in order to figure out a tree type,
compares a passed root value with a global free_vmap_area_root variable to
distinguish the augmented rb-tree from a regular one. It is hard coded
since such functions can manipulate only with specific
"free_vmap_area_root" tree that represents a global free vmap space.
Make it common by introducing "_augment" versions of both internal
functions, so it is possible to deal with different trees.
There is no functional change as a result of this patch.

Add a scan interface which allows to trigger scanning of a particular
shrinker and specify memcg and numa node. It's useful for testing,
debugging and profiling of a specific scan_objects() callback. Unlike
alternatives (creating a real memory pressure and dropping caches via
/proc/sys/vm/drop_caches) this interface allows to interact with only one
shrinker at once. Also, if a shrinker is misreporting the number of
objects (as some do), it doesn't affect scanning.

Currently shrinkers are anonymous objects. For debugging purposes they
can be identified by count/scan function names, but it's not always
useful: e.g. for superblock's shrinkers it's nice to have at least an
idea of to which superblock the shrinker belongs.
This commit adds names to shrinkers. register_shrinker() and
prealloc_shrinker() functions are extended to take a format and arguments
to master a name.
In some cases it's not possible to determine a good name at the time when
a shrinker is allocated. For such cases shrinker_debugfs_rename() is
provided.
The expected format is:
<subsystem>-<shrinker_type>[:<instance>]-<id>
For some shrinkers an instance can be encoded as (MAJOR:MINOR) pair.
After this change the shrinker debugfs directory looks like:
$ cd /sys/kernel/debug/shrinker/

This commit introduces the /sys/kernel/debug/shrinker debugfs interface
which provides an ability to observe the state of individual kernel memory
shrinkers.
Because the feature adds some memory overhead (which shouldn't be large
unless there is a huge amount of registered shrinkers), it's guarded by a
config option (enabled by default).
This commit introduces the "count" interface for each shrinker registered
in the system.
The output is in the following format:
<cgroup inode id> <nr of objects on node 0> <nr of objects on node 1>...
<cgroup inode id> <nr of objects on node 0> <nr of objects on node 1>...
...
To reduce the size of output on machines with many thousands cgroups, if
the total number of objects on all nodes is 0, the line is omitted.
If the shrinker is not memcg-aware or CONFIG_MEMCG is off, 0 is printed as
cgroup inode id. If the shrinker is not numa-aware, 0's are printed for
all nodes except the first one.
This commit gives debugfs entries simple numeric names, which are not very
convenient. The following commit in the series will provide shrinkers
with more meaningful names.

Patch series "mm: introduce shrinker debugfs interface", v5.
The only existing debugging mechanism is a couple of tracepoints in
do_shrink_slab(): mm_shrink_slab_start and mm_shrink_slab_end. They
aren't covering everything though: shrinkers which report 0 objects will
never show up, there is no support for memcg-aware shrinkers. Shrinkers
are identified by their scan function, which is not always enough (e.g.
hard to guess which super block's shrinker it is having only
"super_cache_scan").
To provide a better visibility and debug options for memory shrinkers this
patchset introduces a /sys/kernel/debug/shrinker interface, to some extent
similar to /sys/kernel/slab.
For each shrinker registered in the system a directory is created. As
now, the directory will contain only a "scan" file, which allows to get
the number of managed objects for each memory cgroup (for memcg-aware
shrinkers) and each numa node (for numa-aware shrinkers on a numa
machine). Other interfaces might be added in the future.
To make debugging more pleasant, the patchset also names all shrinkers, so
that debugfs entries can have meaningful names.
This patch (of 5):
Shrinker debugfs requires a way to represent memory cgroups without using
full paths, both for displaying information and getting input from a user.
Cgroup inode number is a perfect way, already used by bpf.
This commit adds a couple of helper functions which will be used to handle
memcg-aware shrinkers.

HW_TAGS KASAN skips zeroing page_alloc allocations backing vmalloc
mappings via __GFP_SKIP_ZERO. Instead, these pages are zeroed via
kasan_unpoison_vmalloc() by passing the KASAN_VMALLOC_INIT flag.
The problem is that __kasan_unpoison_vmalloc() does not zero pages when
either kasan_vmalloc_enabled() or is_vmalloc_or_module_addr() fail.
Thus:
1. Change __vmalloc_node_range() to only set KASAN_VMALLOC_INIT when
__GFP_SKIP_ZERO is set.
2. Change __kasan_unpoison_vmalloc() to always zero pages when the
KASAN_VMALLOC_INIT flag is set.
3. Add WARN_ON() asserts to check that KASAN_VMALLOC_INIT cannot be set
in other early return paths of __kasan_unpoison_vmalloc().
Also clean up the comment in __kasan_unpoison_vmalloc.

DAMON_RECLAIM's 'enabled' parameter store callback ('enabled_store()')
schedules the parameter check timer ('damon_reclaim_timer') if the
parameter is set as 'Y'. Then, the timer schedules itself to check if
user has set the parameter as 'N'. It's unnecessarily complex.
This commit makes it simpler by making the parameter store callback to
schedule the timer regardless of the parameter value and disabling the
timer's self scheduling.
