Patch series "Docs/mm/damon: update intro, modules, maintainer profile,
and misc".
Update DAMON documentations for wordsmithing, clarifications, and
miscellaneous outdated things with eight patches. Patch 1 simplifies the
brief introduction of DAMON. Patch 2 updates DAMON user-space tool
packaged distros information on design doc to include not only Fedora, but
refer to repology. Three following patches update design and usage
documents for clarifying DAMON sample modules purposes (patch 3), and
outdated information about usages of DAMON modules (patches 4 and 5).
Final three patches update usage and maintainer-profile for sysfs
refresh_ms feature behavior (patch 6), synchronize DAMON MAINTAINERS
section name (patch 7), and broken damon-tests performance tests (patch
8).
This patch (of 8):
The intro is a bit verbose and redundant. Simplify it by replacing
details with more links to the design docs, and refining the design points
list.

The kernel-doc comment referred to swap_cache_clear_shadow(), but the
actual function name is __swap_cache_clear_shadow().
Update the comment to match the function name.

'min_sz_region' field of 'struct damon_ctx' represents the minimum size of
each DAMON region for the context. 'struct damos_access_pattern' has a
field of the same name. It confuses readers and makes 'grep' less optimal
for them. Rename it to 'min_region_sz'.

The macro is for the default minimum size of each DAMON region. There was
a case that a reader was confused if it is the minimum number of total
DAMON regions, which is set on damon_attrs->min_nr_regions. Make the name
more explicit.

DAMOS filters are processed on the core layer and operations layer,
depending on their types. damos_filter_out() in core.c, which is for only
core layer handled filters, can confuse the fact. Rename it to
damos_core_filter_out(), to be more explicit about the fact.

damon_call_control->dealloc_on_cancel works only when ->repeat is true.
But the behavior is not clearly documented. DAMON API callers can
understand the behavior only after reading kdamond_call() code. Document
the behavior on the kernel-doc comment of damon_call_control.

kdamond_call() handles damon_call() requests on the ->call_controls list
of damon_ctx, which is shared with damon_call() callers. To protect the
list from concurrent accesses while letting the callback function
independent of the call_controls_lock, the function does complicated
locking operations. For each damon_call_control object on the list, the
function removes the control object from the list under locking, invoke
the callback of the control object without locking, and then puts the
control object back to the list if needed, under locking. It is
complicated, and can contend the locks more frequently with other DAMON
API caller threads as the number of concurrent callback requests
increases. Contention overhead is not a big deal, but the increased race
opportunity can make headaches.
Simplify the locking sequence by moving all damon_call_control objects
from the shared list to a local list at once under the single lock
protection, processing the callback requests without locking, and adding
back repeat mode controls to the shared list again at once again, again
under the single lock protection. This change makes the number of locking
in kdamond_call() be always two, regardless of the number of the queued
requests.

damos_walk() request is canceled after damon_ctx->kdamond is reset. This
can make weird situations where damon_is_running() returns false but the
DAMON context has the damos_walk() request linked. There was a similar
situation for damon_call() requests handling [1], which _was_ able to
cause a racy use-after-free bug. Unlike the case of damon_call(), because
damos_walk() is always synchronously handled and allows only single
request at time, there is no such problematic race cases. But, keeping it
as is could stem another subtle race condition bug in future.
Avoid that by cancelling the requests before the ->kdamond reset. Note
that this change also makes all damon_ctx dependent resource cleanups
consistently done before the damon_ctx->kdamond reset.

When kdamond terminates, it destroys the regions of the context first, and
the targets of the context just before the kdamond main function returns.
Because regions are linked inside targets, doing them separately is only
inefficient and looks weird. A more serious problem is that the cleanup
of the targets is done after damon_ctx->kdamond reset, which is the event
that lets DAMON API callers know the kdamond is no longer actively
running. That is, some DAMON targets could still exist while kdamond is
not running. There are no real problems from this, but this implicit fact
could cause subtle racy issues in future. Destroy targets and regions at
one.
Adding contexts on how the code has evolved in the way. Doing only
regions destruction was because putting pids of the targets were done on
DAMON API callers. Commit 7114bc5e01cf ("mm/damon/core: add
cleanup_target() ops callback") moved the role to be done via operations
set on each target destruction. Hence it removed the reason to do only
regions cleanup. Commit 3a69f1635769 ("mm/damon/core: destroy targets
when kdamond_fn() finish") therefore further destructed targets on kdamond
termination time. It was still separated from regions destruction because
damon_operations->cleanup() may do additional targets cleanup. Placing
the targets destruction after damon_ctx->kdamond reset was just an
unnecessary decision of the commit. The previous commit removed
damon_operations->cleanup(), so there is no more reason to do destructions
of regions and targets separately.

Patch series "mm/damon: cleanup kdamond, damon_call(), damos filter and
DAMON_MIN_REGION".
Do miscellaneous code cleanups for improving readability. First three
patches cleanup kdamond termination process, by removing unused operation
set cleanup callback (patch 1) and moving damon_ctx specific resource
cleanups on kdamond termination to synchronization-easy place (patches 2
and 3). Next two patches touch damon_call() infrastructure, by
refactoring kdamond_call() function to do less and simpler locking
operations (patch 4), and documenting when dealloc_on_free does work
(patch 5). Final three patches rename things for clear uses of those.
Those rename damos_filter_out() to be more explicit about the fact that it
is only for core-handled filters (patch 6), DAMON_MIN_REGION macro to be
more explicit it is not about number of regions but size of each region
(patch 7), and damon_ctx->min_sz_region to be different from
damos_access_patern->min_sz_region (patch 8), so that those are not
confusing and easy to grep.
This patch (of 8):
damon_operations->cleanup() was added for a case that an operation set
implementation requires additional cleanups. But no such implementation
exists at the moment. Remove it.

When the test fails, it shows whole sampled working set size measurements.
The purpose is showing the distribution of the measured values, to let
the tester know if it was just intermittent failure. Multiple same values
on the output are therefore unnecessary. It was not a big deal since the
test was failing only once in the past. But the test can now fail
multiple times with increased working set size, until it passes or the
working set size reaches a limit. Hence the noisy output can be quite
long and annoying. Print only the deduplicated distribution information.

DAMON selftest for working set size estimation collects DAMON's working
set size measurements of the running artificial memory access generator
program until the program is finished. Depending on how quickly the
program finishes, and how quickly DAMON starts, the number of collected
working set size measurements may vary, and make the test results
unreliable. Ensure it collects 40 measurements by using the repeat mode
of the artificial memory access generator program, and finish the
measurements only after the desired number of collections are made.

'access_memory' is an artificial memory access generator program that is
used for a few DAMON selftests. It accesses a given number of regions one
by one only once, and exits. Depending on systems, the test workload may
exit faster than expected, making the tests unreliable. For reliable
control of the artificial memory access pattern, add a mode to make it
repeat running.

DAMON reads and writes Accessed bits of page tables without manual TLB
flush for two reasons. First, it minimizes the overhead. Second, real
systems that need DAMON are expected to be memory intensive enough to
cause periodic TLB flushes. For test setups that use small test
workloads, however, the system's TLB could be big enough to cover whole or
most accesses of the test workload. In this case, no page table walk
happens and DAMON cannot show any access from the test workload.
The test workload for DAMON's working set size estimation selftest is such
a case. It accesses only 10 MiB working set, and it turned out there are
test setups that have TLBs large enough to cover the 10 MiB data accesses.
As a result, the test fails depending on the test machine.
Make it more reliable by trying larger working sets up to 160 MiB when it
fails.

Patch series "selftests/damon: improve leak detection and wss estimation
reliability".
Two DAMON selftets, namely 'sysfs_memcg_leak' and
'sysfs_update_schemes_tried_regions_wss_estimation' frequently show
intermittent failures due to their unreliable leak detection and working
set size estimation. Make those more reliable.
This patch (of 5):
sysfs_memcg_path_leak.sh determines if the memory leak has happened by
seeing if Slab size on /proc/meminfo increases more than expected after an
action. Depending on the system and background workloads, the reasonable
expectation varies. For the reason, the test frequently shows
intermittent failures. Use kmemleak, which is much more reliable and
correct, instead.

This self test is asserting internal implementation details and is highly
vulnerable to internal kernel changes as a result.
It is currently failing locally from at least v6.17, and it seems that it
may have been failing for longer in many configurations/hardware as it
skips if e.g. CONFIG_ANON_VMA_NAME is not specified.
With these skips and the fact that run_vmtests.sh won't run the tests in
certain configurations it is likely we have simply missed this test being
broken in CI for a long while.
I have tried multiple versions of these tests and am unable to find a
working bisect as previous versions of the test fail also.
The tests are essentially mmap()'ing a series of mappings with no hint and
asserting what the get_unmapped_area*() functions will come up with, with
seemingly few checks for what other mappings may already be in place.
It then appears to be mmap()'ing with a hint, and making a series of
similar assertions about the internal implementation details of the
hinting logic.
Commit 0ef3783d7558 ("selftests/mm: add support to test 4PB VA on PPC64"),
commit 3bd6137220bb ("selftests/mm: virtual_address_range: avoid reading
from VM_IO mappings"), and especially commit a005145b9c96 ("selftests/mm:
virtual_address_range: mmap() without PROT_WRITE") are good examples of
the whack-a-mole nature of maintaining this test.
The last commit there being particularly pertinent as it was accounting
for an internal implementation detail change that really should have no
bearing on self-tests, that is commit e93d2521b27f ("x86/vdso: Split
virtual clock pages into dedicated mapping").
The purpose of the mm self-tests are to assert attributes about the API
exposed to users, and to ensure that expectations are met.
This test is emphatically not doing this, rather making a series of
assumptions about internal implementation details and asserting them.
It therefore, sadly, seems that the best course is to remove this test
altogether.

If no free hugepage folios are available, there is no need to perform any
replacement operations. Additionally, gigantic folios should not be
replaced under any circumstances. Therefore, we only check for the
presence of non-gigantic folios, also adding the gigantic folio check to
avoid accidental replacement.
To optimize performance, we skip unnecessary iterations over pfn for
compound pages and high-order buddy pages to save processing time.

pfnmap currently checks the target file in FIXTURE_SETUP(pfnmap), meaning
once for every test, and skips the test if any check fails.
The target file is the same for every test so this is a little overkill.
More importantly, this approach means that the whole suite will report
PASS even if all the tests are skipped because kernel configuration (e.g.
CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM=y) prevented /dev/mem from being mapped, for
instance.
Let's ensure that KSFT_SKIP is returned as exit code if any check fails by
performing the checks in pfnmap_init(), run once. That function also
takes care of finding the offset of the pages to be mapped and saves it in
a global. The file is now opened only once and the fd saved in a global,
but it is still mapped/unmapped for every test, as some of them modify the
mapping.

Make sure pagemap_ioctl exits with an appropriate value:
* If the tests are run, call ksft_finished() to report the right
status instead of reporting PASS unconditionally.
* Report SKIP if userfaultfd isn't available (in line with other
tests)
* Report FAIL if we failed to open /proc/self/pagemap, as this file
has been added a long time ago and doesn't depend on any CONFIG
option (returning -EINVAL from main() is meaningless)

One of the pagemap_ioctl tests attempts to fault in pages by memcpy()'ing
them to an unused buffer. This probably worked originally, but since
commit 46036188ea1f ("selftests/mm: build with -O2") the compiler is free
to optimise away that unused buffer and the memcpy() with it. As a result
there might not be any resident page in the mapping and the test may fail.
We don't need to copy all that memory anyway. Just fault in every page.
While at it also make sure to compute the number of pages once using
simple integer arithmetic instead of ceilf() and implicit conversions.

FORCE_READ(*addr) ensures that the compiler will emit a load from addr.
Several tests need to trigger such a load for a range of pages, ensuring
that every page is faulted in, if it wasn't already.
Introduce a new helper force_read_pages() that does exactly that and
replace existing loops with a call to it.
The step size (regular/huge page size) is preserved for all loops, except
in split_huge_page_test. Reading every byte is unnecessary; we now read
every huge page, matching the following call to check_huge_file().

Commit 5bbc2b785e63 ("selftests/mm: fix FORCE_READ to read input value
correctly") modified FORCE_READ() to take a value instead of a pointer.
It also changed most of the call sites accordingly, but missed many of
them in cow.c. In those cases, we ended up with the pointer itself being
read, not the memory it points to.
No failure occurred as a result, so it looks like the tests work just fine
without faulting in. However, the huge_zeropage tests explicitly check
that pages are populated, so those became skipped.
Convert all the remaining FORCE_READ() to fault in the mapped page, as was
originally intended. This allows the huge_zeropage tests to run again (3
tests in total).

check_config.sh checks that liburing is available by running the compiler
provided as its first argument. This makes two assumptions:
1. CC consists of only one word
2. No extra flag is required
Unfortunately, there are many situations where these assumptions don't
hold. For instance:
- When using Clang, CC consists of multiple words
- When cross-compiling, extra flags may be required to allow the
compiler to find headers
Remove these assumptions by passing down CC and CFLAGS as-is from the
Makefile, so that the same command line is used as when actually building
the tests.

Commit 96ed62ea0298 ("mm: page_frag: fix a compile error when kernel is
not compiled") introduced a check to avoid attempting to build the
page_frag module if <linux/page_frag_cache.h> is missing.
Unfortunately this check only works if KDIR points to /lib/modules/... or
an in-tree kernel build. It always fails if KDIR points to an out-of-tree
build (i.e. when the kernel was built with O=... make) because only
generated headers are present under $KDIR/include/ in that case.
A recent commit switched KDIR to default to the kernel's build directory,
so that check is no longer justified.

Patch series "Various mm kselftests improvements/fixes", v3.
Various improvements/fixes for the mm kselftests:
- Patch 1-3 extend support for more build configurations: out-of-tree
$KDIR, cross-compilation, etc.
- Patch 4-7 fix issues related to faulting in pages, introducing a new
helper for that purpose.
- Patch 8 fixes the value returned by pagemap_ioctl (PASS was always
returned, which explains why the issue fixed in patch 6 went
unnoticed).
- Patch 9 improves the exit code of pfnmap.
Net results:
- 1 test no longer fails (patch 7)
- 3 tests are no longer skipped (patch 4)
- More accurate return values for whole suites (patch 8, 9)
- Extra tests are more likely to be built (patch 1-3)
This patch (of 9):
KDIR currently defaults to the running kernel's modules directory when
building the page_frag module. The underlying assumption is that most
users build the kselftests in order to run them against the system they're
built on.
This assumption seems questionable, and there is no guarantee that the
module can actually be built against the running kernel.
Switch the default value of KDIR to the kernel's build directory, i.e.
$(O) if O= or KBUILD_OUTPUT= is used, and the source directory otherwise.
This seems like the least surprising option: the test module is built
against the kernel that has been previously built.
Note: we can't use $(top_srcdir) in mm/Makefile because it is only defined
once lib.mk is included.

This continues the effort to refactor workqueue APIs, which began with the
introduction of new workqueues and a new alloc_workqueue flag in:
commit 128ea9f6ccfb ("workqueue: Add system_percpu_wq and system_dfl_wq")
commit 930c2ea566af ("workqueue: Add new WQ_PERCPU flag")
The refactoring is going to alter the default behavior of
alloc_workqueue() to be unbound by default.
With the introduction of the WQ_PERCPU flag (equivalent to !WQ_UNBOUND),
any alloc_workqueue() caller that doesn't explicitly specify WQ_UNBOUND
must now use WQ_PERCPU. For more details see the Link tag below.
In order to keep alloc_workqueue() behavior identical, explicitly request
WQ_PERCPU.

Patch series "Replace wq users and add WQ_PERCPU to alloc_workqueue()
users", v2.
This series continues the effort to refactor the Workqueue API. No
behavior changes are introduced by this series.
=== Recent changes to the WQ API ===
The following, address the recent changes in the Workqueue API:
- commit 128ea9f6ccfb ("workqueue: Add system_percpu_wq and system_dfl_wq")
- commit 930c2ea566af ("workqueue: Add new WQ_PERCPU flag")
The old workqueues will be removed in a future release cycle and
unbound will become the implicit default.
=== Introduced Changes by this series ===
1) [P 1-2] Replace use of system_wq and system_unbound_wq
Workqueue users converted to the better named new workqueues:
system_wq -> system_percpu_wq
system_unbound_wq -> system_dfl_wq
This way the old obsolete workqueues (system_wq, system_unbound_wq) can be
removed in the future.
2) [P 3] add WQ_PERCPU to remaining alloc_workqueue() users
With the introduction of the WQ_PERCPU flag (equivalent to !WQ_UNBOUND),
any alloc_workqueue() caller that doesn’t explicitly specify WQ_UNBOUND
must now use WQ_PERCPU.
WQ_UNBOUND will be removed in future.
