2025-11-16mm/damon/tests/core-kunit: fix memory leak in ↵SeongJae Park
damon_test_set_filters_default_reject() Patch series "mm/damon/tests: fix memory bugs in kunit tests". DAMON kunit tests were initially written assuming those will be run on environments that are well controlled and therefore tolerant to transient test failures and bugs in the test code itself. The user-mode linux based manual run of the tests is one example of such an environment. And the test code was written for adding more test coverage as fast as possible, over making those safe and reliable. As a result, the tests resulted in having a number of bugs including real memory leaks, theoretical unhandled memory allocation failures, and unused memory allocations. The allocation failures that are not handled well are unlikely in the real world, since those allocations are too small to fail. But in theory, it can happen and cause inappropriate memory access. It is arguable if bugs in test code can really harm users. But, anyway bugs are bugs that need to be fixed. Fix the bugs one by one. Also Cc stable@ for the fixes of memory leak and unhandled memory allocation failures. The unused memory allocations are only a matter of memory efficiency, so not Cc-ing stable@. The first patch fixes memory leaks in the test code for the DAMON core layer. Following fifteen, three, and one patches respectively fix unhandled memory allocation failures in the test code for DAMON core layer, virtual address space DAMON operation set, and DAMON sysfs interface, one by one per test function. Final two patches remove memory allocations that are correctly deallocated at the end, but not really being used by any code. This patch (of 22): Kunit test function for damos_set_filters_default_reject() allocates two 'struct damos_filter' objects and not deallocates those, so that the memory for the two objects are leaked for every time the test runs. Fix this by deallocating those objects at the end of the test code.

The nvgrace-gpu-vfio-pci module [1] maps the device memory to the user VA (Qemu) using remap_pfn_range() without adding the memory to the kernel. The device memory pages are not backed by struct page. The previous patch implements the mechanism to handle ECC/poison on memory page without struct page. This new mechanism is being used here. The module registers its memory region and the address_space with the kernel MM for ECC handling using the register_pfn_address_space() registration API exposed by the kernel.

2025-11-16mm: handle poisoning of pfn without struct pagesAnkit Agrawal
Poison (or ECC) errors can be very common on a large size cluster. The kernel MM currently does not handle ECC errors / poison on a memory region that is not backed by struct pages. If a memory region mapped using remap_pfn_range() for example, but not added to the kernel, MM will not have associated struct pages. Add a new mechanism to handle memory failure on such memory. Make kernel MM expose a function to allow modules managing the device memory to register the device memory SPA and the address space associated it. MM maintains this information as an interval tree. On poison, MM can search for the range that the poisoned PFN belong and use the address_space to determine the mapping VMA. In this implementation, kernel MM follows the following sequence that is largely similar to the memory_failure() handler for struct page backed memory: 1. memory_failure() is triggered on reception of a poison error. An absence of struct page is detected and consequently memory_failure_pfn() is executed. 2. memory_failure_pfn() collects the processes mapped to the PFN. 3. memory_failure_pfn() sends SIGBUS to all the processes mapping the faulty PFN using kill_procs(). Note that there is one primary difference versus the handling of the poison on struct pages, which is to skip unmapping to the faulty PFN. This is done to handle the huge PFNMAP support added recently [1] that enables VM_PFNMAP vmas to map at PMD or PUD level. A poison to a PFN mapped in such as way would need breaking the PMD/PUD mapping into PTEs that will get mirrored into the S2. This can greatly increase the cost of table walks and have a major performance impact.

2025-11-16mm: change ghes code to allow poison of non-struct pfnAnkit Agrawal
Poison (or ECC) errors can be very common on a large size cluster. The kernel MM currently handles ECC errors / poison only on memory page backed by struct page. The handling is currently missing for the PFNMAP memory that does not have struct pages. The series adds such support. Implement a new ECC handling for memory without struct pages. Kernel MM expose registration APIs to allow modules that are managing the device to register its device memory region. MM then tracks such regions using interval tree. The mechanism is largely similar to that of ECC on pfn with struct pages. If there is an ECC error on a pfn, all the mapping to it are identified and a SIGBUS is sent to the user space processes owning those mappings. Note that there is one primary difference versus the handling of the poison on struct pages, which is to skip unmapping to the faulty PFN. This is done to handle the huge PFNMAP support added recently [1] that enables VM_PFNMAP vmas to map at PMD or PUD level. A poison to a PFN mapped in such as way would need breaking the PMD/PUD mapping into PTEs that will get mirrored into the S2. This can greatly increase the cost of table walks and have a major performance impact. nvgrace-gpu-vfio-pci module maps the device memory to user VA (Qemu) using remap_pfn_range without being added to the kernel [2]. These device memory PFNs are not backed by struct page. So make nvgrace-gpu-vfio-pci module make use of the mechanism to get poison handling support on the device memory. This patch (of 3): The GHES code allows calling of memory_failure() on the PFNs that pass the pfn_valid() check. This contract is broken for the remapped PFNs which fails the check and ghes_do_memory_failure() returns without triggering memory_failure(). Update code to allow memory_failure() call on PFNs failing pfn_valid().

2025-11-16mm/page_alloc: don't warn about large allocations with __GFP_NOFAILBaokun Li
Filesystems use __GFP_NOFAIL to allocate block-sized folios for metadata reads at critical points, since they cannot afford to go read-only, shut down, or enter an inconsistent state due to memory pressure. Currently, attempting to allocate page units greater than order-1 with the __GFP_NOFAIL flag triggers a WARN_ON() in __alloc_pages_slowpath(). However, filesystems supporting large block sizes (blocksize > PAGE_SIZE) can easily require allocations larger than order-1. As Matthew Wilcox noted in [1], if we have a filesystem with 64KiB sectors, there will be many clean folios in the page cache that are 64KiB or larger. He also explained in [2] why kvmalloc isn't a valid approach here. With gfp flags and order already included in the OOM report, both Vlastimil Babka and Michal Hocko suggested that we can take the risk of removing this warning first and then observe whether a large number of related OOM reports appear. If that happens, we can consider adding special handling in other places.

Make break_ksm() receive an address range and change break_ksm_pmd_entry() to perform a range-walk and return the address of the first ksm page found. This change allows break_ksm() to skip unmapped regions instead of iterating every page address. When unmerging large sparse VMAs, this significantly reduces runtime. In a benchmark unmerging a 32 TiB sparse virtual address space where only one page was populated, the runtime dropped from 9 minutes to less then 5 seconds.

2025-11-16Revert "mm/ksm: convert break_ksm() from walk_page_range_vma() to folio_walk"Pedro Demarchi Gomes
Patch series "ksm: perform a range-walk to jump over holes in break_ksm", v4. When unmerging an address range, unmerge_ksm_pages function walks every page address in the specified range to locate ksm pages. This becomes highly inefficient when scanning large virtual memory areas that contain mostly unmapped regions, causing the process to get blocked for several minutes. This patch makes break_ksm, function called by unmerge_ksm_pages for every page in an address range, perform a range walk, allowing it to skip over entire unmapped holes in a VMA, avoiding unnecessary lookups. As pointed out by David Hildenbrand in [1], unmerge_ksm_pages() is called from: * ksm_madvise() through madvise(MADV_UNMERGEABLE). There are not a lot of users of that function. * __ksm_del_vma() through ksm_del_vmas(). Effectively called when disabling KSM for a process either through the sysctl or from s390x gmap code when enabling storage keys for a VM. Consider the following test program which creates a 32 TiB mapping in the virtual address space but only populates a single page: #include <unistd.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <sys/mman.h> /* 32 TiB */ const size_t size = 32ul * 1024 * 1024 * 1024 * 1024; int main() { char *area = mmap(NULL, size, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_NORESERVE | MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANON, -1, 0); if (area == MAP_FAILED) { perror("mmap() failed\n"); return -1; } /* Populate a single page such that we get an anon_vma. */ *area = 0; /* Enable KSM. */ madvise(area, size, MADV_MERGEABLE); madvise(area, size, MADV_UNMERGEABLE); return 0; } Without this patch, this program takes 9 minutes to finish, while with this patch it finishes in less then 5 seconds. This patch (of 3): This reverts commit e317a8d8b4f600fc7ec9725e26417030ee594f52 and changes function break_ksm_pmd_entry() to use folios. This reverts break_ksm() to use walk_page_range_vma() instead of folio_walk_start(). Change break_ksm_pmd_entry() to call is_ksm_zero_pte() only if we know the folio is present, and also rename variable ret to found. This will make it easier to later modify break_ksm() to perform a proper range walk.

This makes it harder for debuggers to correctly map the block state at runtime, which can be quite useful when analysing errors related to memory hot plugging and unplugging with tools such as drgn. Converting the constants to an enum ensures the correct information is emitted by the compiler and available for the debugger, without needing to hard-code them into the debugger and track their changes. This patch series aims to replace the current macros with a newly created enum named memory_block_state, while also taking advantage of the compile time guarantees that we get when using enums. The first patch does the conversion of the macros to an enum, while the 2nd and 3rd patches use this enum to clean up some type declarations and make sure that only valid values are used. This patch (of 3): Converting the MEM_* constants from macros to an enum ensures that their values will be correctly emitted in the debug symbols, making it easier to trace the meaning of each value when debugging with tools such as drgn, without the need to hard-code the values. Since the values are mutually exclusive and they are not exposed directly to userspace, I also dropped the misleading pattern (1<<X) that made it look like they were combinable flags.

2025-11-16mm/swap: select swap device with default priority round robinBaoquan He
Swap devices are assumed to have similar accessing speed when swapon if no priority is specified. It's unfair and doesn't make sense just because one swap device is swapped on firstly, its priority will be higher than the one swapped on later. Here, set all swap devicess to have priority '-1' by default. With this change, swap device with default priority will be selected round robin when swapping out. This can improve the swapping efficiency a lot among multiple swap devices with default priority. Below are swapon output during the processes when high pressure vm-scability test is being taken: 1) This is pre-commit a2468cc9bfdf, swap device is selectd one by one by priority from high to low when one swap device is exhausted: ------------------------------------ [root@hp-dl385g10-03 ~]# swapon NAME TYPE SIZE USED PRIO /dev/zram0 partition 16G 16G -1 /dev/zram1 partition 16G 966.2M -2 /dev/zram2 partition 16G 0B -3 /dev/zram3 partition 16G 0B -4 2) This is behaviour with commit a2468cc9bfdf, on node, swap device sharing the same node id is selected firstly until exhausted; while on node no swap device sharing the node id it selects the one with highest priority until exhaustd: ------------------------------------ [root@hp-dl385g10-03 ~]# swapon NAME TYPE SIZE USED PRIO /dev/zram0 partition 16G 15.7G -2 /dev/zram1 partition 16G 3.4G -3 /dev/zram2 partition 16G 3.4G -4 /dev/zram3 partition 16G 2.6G -5 3) After this patch applied, swap devices with default priority are selectd round robin: ------------------------------------ [root@hp-dl385g10-03 block]# swapon NAME TYPE SIZE USED PRIO /dev/zram0 partition 16G 6.6G -1 /dev/zram1 partition 16G 6.6G -1 /dev/zram2 partition 16G 6.6G -1 /dev/zram3 partition 16G 6.6G -1 With the change, about 18% efficiency promotion relative to node based way as below.

2025-11-16mm/swap: do not choose swap device according to numa nodeBaoquan He
Patch series "mm/swapfile.c: select swap devices of default priority round robin", v5. Currently, on system with multiple swap devices, swap allocation will select one swap device according to priority. The swap device with the highest priority will be chosen to allocate firstly. People can specify a priority from 0 to 32767 when swapon a swap device, or the system will set it from -2 then downwards by default. Meanwhile, on NUMA system, the swap device with node_id will be considered first on that NUMA node of the node_id. In the current code, an array of plist, swap_avail_heads[nid], is used to organize swap devices on each NUMA node. For each NUMA node, there is a plist organizing all swap devices. The 'prio' value in the plist is the negated value of the device's priority due to plist being sorted from low to high. The swap device owning one node_id will be promoted to the front position on that NUMA node, then other swap devices are put in order of their default priority. E.g I got a system with 8 NUMA nodes, and I setup 4 zram partition as swap devices. Current behaviour: their priorities will be(note that -1 is skipped): NAME TYPE SIZE USED PRIO /dev/zram0 partition 16G 0B -2 /dev/zram1 partition 16G 0B -3 /dev/zram2 partition 16G 0B -4 /dev/zram3 partition 16G 0B -5 And their positions in the 8 swap_avail_lists[nid] will be: swap_avail_lists[0]: /* node 0's available swap device list */ zram0 -> zram1 -> zram2 -> zram3 prio:1 prio:3 prio:4 prio:5 swap_avali_lists[1]: /* node 1's available swap device list */ zram1 -> zram0 -> zram2 -> zram3 prio:1 prio:2 prio:4 prio:5 swap_avail_lists[2]: /* node 2's available swap device list */ zram2 -> zram0 -> zram1 -> zram3 prio:1 prio:2 prio:3 prio:5 swap_avail_lists[3]: /* node 3's available swap device list */ zram3 -> zram0 -> zram1 -> zram2 prio:1 prio:2 prio:3 prio:4 swap_avail_lists[4-7]: /* node 4,5,6,7's available swap device list */ zram0 -> zram1 -> zram2 -> zram3 prio:2 prio:3 prio:4 prio:5 The adjustment for swap device with node_id intended to decrease the pressure of lock contention for one swap device by taking different swap device on different node. The adjustment was introduced in commit a2468cc9bfdf ("swap: choose swap device according to numa node"). However, the adjustment is a little coarse-grained. On the node, the swap device sharing the node's id will always be selected firstly by node's CPUs until exhausted, then next one. And on other nodes where no swap device shares its node id, swap device with priority '-2' will be selected firstly until exhausted, then next with priority '-3'. This is the swapon output during the process high pressure vm-scability test is being taken. It's clearly showing zram0 is heavily exploited until exhausted. =================================== [root@hp-dl385g10-03 ~]# swapon NAME TYPE SIZE USED PRIO /dev/zram0 partition 16G 15.7G -2 /dev/zram1 partition 16G 3.4G -3 /dev/zram2 partition 16G 3.4G -4 /dev/zram3 partition 16G 2.6G -5 The node based strategy on selecting swap device is much better then the old way one by one selecting swap device. However it is still unreasonable because swap devices are assumed to have similar accessing speed if no priority is specified when swapon. It's unfair and doesn't make sense just because one swap device is swapped on firstly, its priority will be higher than the one swapped on later. So in this patchset, change is made to select the swap device round robin if default priority. In code, the plist array swap_avail_heads[nid] is replaced with a plist swap_avail_head which reverts commit a2468cc9bfdf. Meanwhile, on top of the revert, further change is taken to make any device w/o specified priority get the same default priority '-1'. Surely, swap device with specified priority are always put foremost, this is not impacted. If you care about their different accessing speed, then use 'swapon -p xx' to deploy priority for your swap devices. New behaviour: swap_avail_list: /* one global available swap device list */ zram0 -> zram1 -> zram2 -> zram3 prio:1 prio:1 prio:1 prio:1 This is the swapon output during the process high pressure vm-scability being taken, all is selected round robin: ======================================= [root@hp-dl385g10-03 linux]# swapon NAME TYPE SIZE USED PRIO /dev/zram0 partition 16G 12.6G -1 /dev/zram1 partition 16G 12.6G -1 /dev/zram2 partition 16G 12.6G -1 /dev/zram3 partition 16G 12.6G -1 With the change, we can see about 18% efficiency promotion as below: vm-scability test: ================== Test with: usemem --init-time -O -y -x -n 31 2G (4G memcg, zram as swap) Before: After: System time: 637.92 s 526.74 s (lower is better) Sum Throughput: 3546.56 MB/s 4207.56 MB/s (higher is better) Single process Throughput: 114.40 MB/s 135.72 MB/s (higher is better) free latency: 10138455.99 us 6810119.01 us (low is better) This patch (of 2): This reverts commit a2468cc9bfdf ("swap: choose swap device according to numa node"). After this patch, the behaviour will change back to pre-commit a2468cc9bfdf. Means the priority will be set from -1 then downwards by default, and when swapping, it will exhault swap device one by one according to priority from high to low. This is preparation work for later change.

2025-11-16mm/damon/sysfs: implement obsolete_target fileSeongJae Park
There is no good way to remove DAMON targets in the middle of the existing targets list. It restricts efficient and flexible DAMON use cases. Improve the usability by implementing a new DAMON sysfs interface file, namely obsolete_target, under each target directory. It is connected to the obsolete field of parameters commit-source targets, so allows removing arbitrary targets in the middle of existing targets list. Note that the sysfs files are not automatically updated. For example, let's suppose there are three targets in the running context, and a user removes the third target using this feature. If the user writes 'commit' to the kdamond 'state' file again, DAMON sysfs interface will again try to remove the third target. But because there is no matching target in the running context, the commit will fail. It is the user's responsibility to understand resulting DAMON internal targets list change, and construct sysfs files (using nr_targets and other sysfs files) to correctly represent it. Also note that this is arguably an improvement rather than a fix of broken things.

2025-11-16mm/damon/sysfs: test commit input against realistic destinationSeongJae Park
DAMON sysfs interface tests if given online parameters update request is valid, by committing those using the DAMON kernel API, to a test-purpose destination context. The test-purpose destination context is constructed using damon_new_ctx(), so it has no target, no scheme. If a source target has the obsolete field set, the test-purpose commit will fail because damon_commit_targets() fails when there is a source obsolete target that cannot find its matching destination target. DAMON sysfs interface is not letting users set the field for now, so there is no problem. However, the following commit will support that. Also there could be similar future changes that making commit fails based on current context structure. Make the test purpose commit destination context similar to the current running one, by committing the running one to the test purpose context, before doing the real test-purpose commit.

2025-11-16mm/damon/core: add damon_target->obsolete for pin-point removalSeongJae Park
Patch series "mm/damon: support pin-point targets removal". DAMON maintains the targets in a list, and allows committing only an entire list of targets having the new parameters. Targets having same index on the lists are treated as matching source and destination targets. If an existing target cannot find a matching one in the sources list, the target is removed. This means that there is no way to remove only a specific monitoring target in the middle of the current targets list. Such pin-point target removal is really needed in some use cases, though. Monitoring access patterns on virtual address spaces of processes that spawned from the same ancestor is one example. If a process of the group is terminated, the user may want to remove the matching DAMON target as soon as possible, to save in-kernel memory usage for the unnecessary target data. The user may also want to do that without turning DAMON off or removing unnecessary targets, to keep the current monitoring results for other active processes. Extend DAMON kernel API and sysfs ABI to support the pin-point removal in the following way. For API, add a new damon_target field, namely 'obsolete'. If the field on parameters commit source target is set, it means the matching destination target is obsolete. Then the parameters commit logic removes the destination target from the existing targets list. For sysfs ABI, add a new file under the target directory, namely 'obsolete_target'. It is connected with the 'obsolete' field of the commit source targets, so internally using the new API. Also add a selftest for the new feature. The related helper scripts for manipulating the sysfs interface and dumping in-kernel DAMON status are also extended for this. Note that the selftest part was initially posted as an individual RFC series [1], but now merged into this one. Bijan Tabatabai has originally reported this issue, and participated in this solution design on a GitHub issue [1] for DAMON user-space tool. This patch (of 9): DAMON's monitoring targets parameters update function, damon_commit_targets(), is not providing a way to remove a target in the middle of the existing targets list. Extend the API by adding a field to struct damon_target. If the field of a damon_commit_targets() source target is set, it indicates the matching target on the existing targets list is obsolete. damon_commit_targets() understands that and removes those from the list, while respecting the index based matching for other non-obsolete targets.

2025-11-16mm: shmem/tmpfs hugepage defaults config choiceDmitry Ilvokhin
Allow to override defaults for shemem and tmpfs at config time. This is consistent with how transparent hugepages can be configured. Same results can be achieved with the existing 'transparent_hugepage_shmem' and 'transparent_hugepage_tmpfs' settings in the kernel command line, but it is more convenient to define basic settings at config time instead of changing kernel command line later. Defaults for shmem and tmpfs were not changed. They are remained the same as before: 'never' for both cases. Options 'deny' and 'force' are omitted intentionally since these are special values and supposed to be used for emergencies or testing and are not expected to be permanent ones. Primary motivation for adding config option is to enable policy enforcement at build time. In large-scale production environments (Meta's for example), the kernel configuration is often maintained centrally close to the kernel code itself and owned by the kernel engineers, while boot parameters are managed independently (e.g. by provisioning systems). In such setups, the kernel build defines the supported and expected behavior in a single place, but there is no reliable or uniform control over the kernel command line options. A build-time default allows kernel integrators to enforce a predictable hugepage policy for shmem/tmpfs on a base layer, ensuring reproducible behavior and avoiding configuration drift caused by possible boot-time differences. In short, primary benefit is mostly operational: it provides a way to codify preferred policy in the kernel configuration, which is versioned, reviewed, and tested as part of the kernel build process, rather than depending on potentially variable boot parameters.

2025-11-16mm, swap: do not perform synchronous discard during allocationKairui Song
Patch series "mm, swap: misc cleanup and bugfix", v2. A few cleanups and a bugfix that are either suitable after the swap table phase I or found during code review. Patch 1 is a bugfix and needs to be included in the stable branch, the rest have no behavioral change. This patch (of 5): Since commit 1b7e90020eb77 ("mm, swap: use percpu cluster as allocation fast path"), swap allocation is protected by a local lock, which means we can't do any sleeping calls during allocation. However, the discard routine is not taken well care of. When the swap allocator failed to find any usable cluster, it would look at the pending discard cluster and try to issue some blocking discards. It may not necessarily sleep, but the cond_resched at the bio layer indicates this is wrong when combined with a local lock. And the bio GFP flag used for discard bio is also wrong (not atomic). It's arguable whether this synchronous discard is helpful at all. In most cases, the async discard is good enough. And the swap allocator is doing very differently at organizing the clusters since the recent change, so it is very rare to see discard clusters piling up. So far, no issues have been observed or reported with typical SSD setups under months of high pressure. This issue was found during my code review. But by hacking the kernel a bit: adding a mdelay(500) in the async discard path, this issue will be observable with WARNING triggered by the wrong GFP and cond_resched in the bio layer for debug builds. So now let's apply a hotfix for this issue: remove the synchronous discard in the swap allocation path. And when order 0 is failing with all cluster list drained on all swap devices, try to do a discard following the swap device priority list. If any discards released some cluster, try the allocation again. This way, we can still avoid OOM due to swap failure if the hardware is very slow and memory pressure is extremely high. This may cause more fragmentation issues if the discarding hardware is really slow. Ideally, we want to discard pending clusters before continuing to iterate the fragment cluster lists. This can be implemented in a cleaner way if we clean up the device list iteration part first.

2025-11-16mm/huge_memory: optimize old_order derivation during folio splittingWei Yang
Folio splitting requires both the folio's original order (@old_order) and the new target order (@split_order). In the current implementation, @old_order is repeatedly retrieved using folio_order(). However, for every iteration after the first, the folio being split is the result of the previous split, meaning its order is already known to be equal to the previous iteration's @split_order. This commit optimizes the logic: * Instead of calling folio_order(), we now set @old_order directly to the value of @split_order from the previous iteration. This change avoids unnecessary function calls and simplifies the loop setup. Also it removes a check for non-existent case, since for uniform splitting we only do split when @split_order == @new_order.

2025-11-16mm/huge_memory: optimize and simplify folio stat update after splitWei Yang
The loop executed after a successful folio split currently has two combined responsibilities: * updating statistics for the new folios * determining the folio for the next split iteration. This commit refactors the logic to directly calculate and update folio statistics, eliminating the need for the iteration step. We can do this because all necessary information is already available: * All resulting new folios have the same order, which is @split_order. * The exact number of new folios can be calculated directly using @old_order and @split_order. * The folio for the subsequent split is simply the one containing @split_at. By leveraging this knowledge, we can achieve the stat update more cleanly and efficiently without the looping logic.
