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.

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.

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.

in perf-profile.calltrace.cycles-pp._raw_spin_lock.raw_spin_rq_lock_nested

*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

of 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 habbit 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.

In 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.
The 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.

For two kernel releases now kernel/sysctl.c has been being cleaned up
slowly, since the tables were grossly long, sprinkled with tons of #ifdefs and
all this caused merge conflicts with one susbystem or another.
This tree was put together to help try to avoid conflicts with these cleanups
going on different trees at time. So nothing exciting on this pull request,
just cleanups.
I actually had this sysctl-next tree up since v5.18 but I missed sending a
pull request for it on time during the last merge window. And so these changes
have been being soaking up on sysctl-next and so linux-next for a while.
The last change was merged May 4th.
Most of the compile issues were reported by 0day and fixed.
To help avoid a conflict with bpf folks at Daniel Borkmann's request
I merged bpf-next/pr/bpf-sysctl into sysctl-next to get the effor which
moves the BPF sysctls from kernel/sysctl.c to BPF core.
Possible merge conflicts and known resolutions as per linux-next:

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.

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

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.

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().

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.

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.

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.

Unlike most architectures, powerpc can only define at runtime

Today, powerpc has a copy of the generic arch_get_unmapped_area()

Rename it generic_get_unmapped_area() and make it independent of

Some use cases don't always need an IPI when sending a TWA_SIGNAL
notification. Add TWA_SIGNAL_NO_IPI, which is just like TWA_SIGNAL, except
it doesn't send an IPI to the target task. It merely sets
TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL and wakes up the task.
This can be useful in avoiding a forceful transition to the kernel if the
task is running in userspace. Depending on the task_work in question, it
may be quite fine waiting for the next reschedule or kernel enter anyway,
or the use case may even have other mechanisms for hinting to the task
that a transition may be useful. This can drive more cooperative
scheduling of task_work.

With SIGTRAP on perf events, we have encountered termination of
processes due to user space attempting to block delivery of SIGTRAP.
Consider this case:
<set up SIGTRAP on a perf event>
...
sigset_t s;
sigemptyset(&s);
sigaddset(&s, SIGTRAP | <and others>);
sigprocmask(SIG_BLOCK, &s, ...);
...
<perf event triggers>
When the perf event triggers, while SIGTRAP is blocked, force_sig_perf()
will force the signal, but revert back to the default handler, thus
terminating the task.
This makes sense for error conditions, but not so much for explicitly
requested monitoring. However, the expectation is still that signals
generated by perf events are synchronous, which will no longer be the
case if the signal is blocked and delivered later.
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).
The alternative of making the kernel ignore SIGTRAP on perf events if
the signal is blocked may work for some usecases, but likely causes
issues in others that then have to revert back to interception of
sigprocmask() (which we want to avoid). [ A concrete example: when using
breakpoint perf events to track data-flow, in a region of code where
signals are blocked, data-flow can no longer be tracked accurately.
When a relevant asynchronous signal is received after unblocking the
signal, the data-flow tracking logic needs to know its state is
imprecise. ]

This is a fix for commit f6795053da ("mm: mmap: Allow for "high"
userspace addresses") for hugetlb.
This patch adds support for "high" userspace addresses that are
optionally supported on the system and have to be requested via a hint
mechanism ("high" addr parameter to mmap).
Architectures such as powerpc and x86 achieve this by making changes to
their architectural versions of hugetlb_get_unmapped_area() function.
However, arm64 uses the generic version of that function.
So take into account arch_get_mmap_base() and arch_get_mmap_end() in
hugetlb_get_unmapped_area(). To allow that, move those two macros out
of mm/mmap.c into include/linux/sched/mm.h
If these macros are not defined in architectural code then they default
to (TASK_SIZE) and (base) so should not introduce any behavioural
changes to architectures that do not define them.
For the time being, only ARM64 is affected by this change.
Catalin (ARM64) said
"We should have fixed hugetlb_get_unmapped_area() as well when we added
support for 52-bit VA. The reason for commit f6795053da was to
prevent normal mmap() from returning addresses above 48-bit by default
as some user-space had hard assumptions about this.
It's a slight ABI change if you do this for hugetlb_get_unmapped_area()
but I doubt anyone would notice. It's more likely that the current
behaviour would cause issues, so I'd rather have them consistent.
Basically when arm64 gained support for 52-bit addresses we did not
want user-space calling mmap() to suddenly get such high addresses,
otherwise we could have inadvertently broken some programs (similar
behaviour to x86 here). Hence we added commit f6795053da. But we
missed hugetlbfs which could still get such high mmap() addresses. So
in theory that's a potential regression that should have bee addressed
at the same time as commit f6795053da (and before arm64 enabled
52-bit addresses)"

This set of changes removes tracehook.h, moves modification of all of
the ptrace fields inside of siglock to remove races, adds a missing
permission check to ptrace.c
The removal of tracehook.h is quite significant as it has been a major
source of confusion in recent years. Much of that confusion was
around task_work and TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL (which I have now decoupled
making the semantics clearer).
For people who don't know tracehook.h is a vestiage of an attempt to
implement uprobes like functionality that was never fully merged, and
was later superseeded by uprobes when uprobes was merged. For many
years now we have been removing what tracehook functionaly a little
bit at a time. To the point where now anything left in tracehook.h is
some weird strange thing that is difficult to understand.

With the advent of various new memory types, some machines will have
multiple types of memory, e.g. DRAM and PMEM (persistent memory). The
memory subsystem of these machines can be called memory tiering system,
because the performance of the different types of memory are usually
different.
In such system, because of the memory accessing pattern changing etc,
some pages in the slow memory may become hot globally. So in this
patch, the NUMA balancing mechanism is enhanced to optimize the page
placement among the different memory types according to hot/cold
dynamically.
In a typical memory tiering system, there are CPUs, fast memory and slow
memory in each physical NUMA node. The CPUs and the fast memory will be
put in one logical node (called fast memory node), while the slow memory
will be put in another (faked) logical node (called slow memory node).
That is, the fast memory is regarded as local while the slow memory is
regarded as remote. So it's possible for the recently accessed pages in
the slow memory node to be promoted to the fast memory node via the
existing NUMA balancing mechanism.
The original NUMA balancing mechanism will stop to migrate pages if the
free memory of the target node becomes below the high watermark. This
is a reasonable policy if there's only one memory type. But this makes
the original NUMA balancing mechanism almost do not work to optimize
page placement among different memory types. Details are as follows.
It's the common cases that the working-set size of the workload is
larger than the size of the fast memory nodes. Otherwise, it's
unnecessary to use the slow memory at all. So, there are almost always
no enough free pages in the fast memory nodes, so that the globally hot
pages in the slow memory node cannot be promoted to the fast memory
node. To solve the issue, we have 2 choices as follows,
a. Ignore the free pages watermark checking when promoting hot pages
from the slow memory node to the fast memory node. This will
create some memory pressure in the fast memory node, thus trigger
the memory reclaiming. So that, the cold pages in the fast memory
node will be demoted to the slow memory node.
b. Define a new watermark called wmark_promo which is higher than
wmark_high, and have kswapd reclaiming pages until free pages reach
such watermark. The scenario is as follows: when we want to promote
hot-pages from a slow memory to a fast memory, but fast memory's free
pages would go lower than high watermark with such promotion, we wake
up kswapd with wmark_promo watermark in order to demote cold pages and
free us up some space. So, next time we want to promote hot-pages we
might have a chance of doing so.
The choice "a" may create high memory pressure in the fast memory node.
If the memory pressure of the workload is high, the memory pressure
may become so high that the memory allocation latency of the workload
is influenced, e.g. the direct reclaiming may be triggered.
The choice "b" works much better at this aspect. If the memory
pressure of the workload is high, the hot pages promotion will stop
earlier because its allocation watermark is higher than that of the
normal memory allocation. So in this patch, choice "b" is implemented.
A new zone watermark (WMARK_PROMO) is added. Which is larger than the
high watermark and can be controlled via watermark_scale_factor.
In addition to the original page placement optimization among sockets,
the NUMA balancing mechanism is extended to be used to optimize page
placement according to hot/cold among different memory types. So the
sysctl user space interface (numa_balancing) is extended in a backward
compatible way as follow, so that the users can enable/disable these
functionality individually.
The sysctl is converted from a Boolean value to a bits field. The
definition of the flags is,
- 0: NUMA_BALANCING_DISABLED
- 1: NUMA_BALANCING_NORMAL
- 2: NUMA_BALANCING_MEMORY_TIERING
We have tested the patch with the pmbench memory accessing benchmark
with the 80:20 read/write ratio and the Gauss access address
distribution on a 2 socket Intel server with Optane DC Persistent
Memory Model. The test results shows that the pmbench score can
improve up to 95.9%.
Thanks Andrew Morton to help fix the document format error.

- Reduce the amount of work to release a task stack in context
switch. There is no real reason to do cgroup accounting and memory
freeing in this performance sensitive context. Aside of this the
invoked functions cannot be called from this preemption disabled
context on PREEMPT_RT enabled kernels. Solve this by moving the
accounting into do_exit() and delaying the freeing of the stack unless
the vmap stack can be cached.
- Provide a mechanism to delay raising signals from atomic context on
PREEMPT_RT enabled kernels as sighand::lock cannot be acquired. Store
the information in the task struct and raise it in the exit path.

- Simplify the PASID handling to allocate the PASID once, associate it to
the mm of a process and free it on mm_exit(). The previous attempt of
refcounted PASIDs and dynamic alloc()/free() turned out to be error
prone and too complex. The PASID space is 20bits, so the case of
resource exhaustion is a pure academic concern.
- Populate the PASID MSR on demand via #GP to avoid racy updates via IPIs.
- Reenable ENQCMD and let objtool check for the forbidden usage of ENQCMD
in the kernel.
- Update the documentation for Shared Virtual Addressing accordingly.

Documentation/x86: Update documentation for SVA (Shared Virtual Addressing)
tools/objtool: Check for use of the ENQCMD instruction in the kernel
x86/cpufeatures: Re-enable ENQCMD

The header tracehook.h is no place for code to live. The functions
set_notify_signal and clear_notify_signal are not about signals. They
are about interruptions that act like signals. The fundamental signal
primitives wind up calling set_notify_signal and clear_notify_signal.
Which means they need to be maintained with the signal code.
Since set_notify_signal and clear_notify_signal must be maintained
with the signal subsystem move them into sched/signal.h and claim them
as part of the signal subsystem.
