__build_all_zonelists() acquires zonelist_update_seq by first disabling
interrupts via local_irq_save() and then acquiring the seqlock with
write_seqlock(). This is troublesome and leads to problems on PREEMPT_RT.
The problem is that the inner spinlock_t becomes a sleeping lock on
PREEMPT_RT and must not be acquired with disabled interrupts.
The API provides write_seqlock_irqsave() which does the right thing in one
step. printk_deferred_enter() has to be invoked in non-migrate-able
context to ensure that deferred printing is enabled and disabled on the
same CPU. This is the case after zonelist_update_seq has been acquired.
There was discussion on the first submission that the order should be:
local_irq_disable();
printk_deferred_enter();
write_seqlock();
to avoid pitfalls like having an unaccounted printk() coming from
write_seqlock_irqsave() before printk_deferred_enter() is invoked. The
only origin of such a printk() can be a lockdep splat because the lockdep
annotation happens after the sequence count is incremented. This is
exceptional and subject to change.
It was also pointed that PREEMPT_RT can be affected by the printk problem
since its write_seqlock_irqsave() does not really disable interrupts.
This isn't the case because PREEMPT_RT's printk implementation differs
from the mainline implementation in two important aspects:
- Printing happens in a dedicated threads and not at during the
invocation of printk().
- In emergency cases where synchronous printing is used, a different
driver is used which does not use tty_port::lock.
Acquire zonelist_update_seq with write_seqlock_irqsave() and then defer
printk output.

When the new range can be completely covered by the original last range
without touching the boundaries on both sides, two new entries can be
appended to the end as a fast path. We update the original last pivot at
the end, and the newly appended two entries will not be accessed before
this, so it is also safe in RCU mode.
This is useful for sequential insertion, which is what we do in
dup_mmap(). Enabling BENCH_FORK in test_maple_tree and just running

ra->prev_pos tracks the last visited byte in the previous read request.
It is used to check whether it is sequential read in ondemand_readahead
and thus affects the readahead window.
After commit 06c0444290 ("mm/filemap.c: generic_file_buffered_read() now
uses find_get_pages_contig"), update logic of prev_pos is changed. It
updates prev_pos after each return from filemap_get_pages(). But the read
request from user may be not fully completed at this point. The updated
prev_pos impacts the subsequent readahead window.
The real problem is performance drop of fsck_msdos between linux-5.4 and
linux-5.15(also linux-6.4). Comparing to linux-5.4,It spends about 110%
time and read 140% pages. The read pattern of fsck_msdos is not fully
sequential.
Simplified read pattern of fsck_msdos likes below:
1.read at page offset 0xa,size 0x1000
2.read at other page offset like 0x20,size 0x1000
3.read at page offset 0xa,size 0x4000
4.read at page offset 0xe,size 0x1000
Here is the read status on linux-6.4:
1.after read at page offset 0xa,size 0x1000
->page ofs 0xa go into pagecache
2.after read at page offset 0x20,size 0x1000
->page ofs 0x20 go into pagecache
3.read at page offset 0xa,size 0x4000
->filemap_get_pages read ofs 0xa from pagecache and returns
->prev_pos is updated to 0xb and goto next loop
->filemap_get_pages tends to read ofs 0xb,size 0x3000
->initial_readahead case in ondemand_readahead since prev_pos is
the same as request ofs.
->read 8 pages while async size is 5 pages
(PageReadahead flag at page 0xe)
4.read at page offset 0xe,size 0x1000
->hit page 0xe with PageReadahead flag set,double the ra_size.
read 16 pages while async size is 16 pages
Now it reads 24 pages while actually uses 5 pages
on linux-5.4:
1.the same as 6.4
2.the same as 6.4
3.read at page offset 0xa,size 0x4000
->read ofs 0xa from pagecache
->read ofs 0xb,size 0x3000 using page_cache_sync_readahead
read 3 pages
->prev_pos is updated to 0xd before generic_file_buffered_read
returns
4.read at page offset 0xe,size 0x1000
->initial_readahead case in ondemand_readahead since
request ofs-prev_pos==1
->read 4 pages while async size is 3 pages
Now it reads 7 pages while actually uses 5 pages.
In above demo, the initial_readahead case is triggered by offset of user
request on linux-5.4. While it may be triggered by update logic of
prev_pos on linux-6.4.
To fix the performance drop, update prev_pos after finishing one read
request.

The acceleration of THP was done with ctx.page_mask, however it'll be
ignored if **pages is non-NULL.
The old optimization was introduced in 2013 in 240aadeedc ("mm:
accelerate mm_populate() treatment of THP pages"). It didn't explain why
we can't optimize the **pages non-NULL case. It's possible that at that
time the major goal was for mm_populate() which should be enough back
then.
Optimize thp for all cases, by properly looping over each subpage, doing
cache flushes, and boost refcounts / pincounts where needed in one go.
This can be verified using gup_test below:

follow_page() doesn't use FOLL_PIN, meanwhile hugetlb seems to not be the
target of FOLL_WRITE either. However add the checks.
Namely, either the need to CoW due to missing write bit, or proper
unsharing on !AnonExclusive pages over R/O pins to reject the follow page.
That brings this function closer to follow_hugetlb_page().
So we don't care before, and also for now. But we'll care if we switch
over slow-gup to use hugetlb_follow_page_mask(). We'll also care when to
return -EMLINK properly, as that's the gup internal api to mean "we should
unshare". Not really needed for follow page path, though.
When at it, switching the try_grab_page() to use WARN_ON_ONCE(), to be
clear that it just should never fail. When error happens, instead of
setting page==NULL, capture the errno instead.

Patch series "mm/gup: Unify hugetlb, speed up thp", v4.
Hugetlb has a special path for slow gup that follow_page_mask() is
actually skipped completely along with faultin_page(). It's not only
confusing, but also duplicating a lot of logics that generic gup already

This patchset tries to dedup the logic, by first touching up the slow gup
code to be able to handle hugetlb pages correctly with the current follow
page and faultin routines (where we're mostly there.. due to 10 years ago
we did try to optimize thp, but half way done; more below), then at the
last patch drop the special path, then the hugetlb gup will always go the
generic routine too via faultin_page().
Note that hugetlb is still special for gup, mostly due to the pgtable
walking (hugetlb_walk()) that we rely on which is currently per-arch. But
this is still one small step forward, and the diffstat might be a proof
too that this might be worthwhile.
Then for the "speed up thp" side: as a side effect, when I'm looking at
the chunk of code, I found that thp support is actually partially done.
It doesn't mean that thp won't work for gup, but as long as **pages
pointer passed over, the optimization will be skipped too. Patch 6 should
address that, so for thp we now get full speed gup.
For a quick number, "chrt -f 1 ./gup_test -m 512 -t -L -n 1024 -r 10"
gives me 13992.50us -> 378.50us. Gup_test is an extreme case, but just to
show how it affects thp gups.
This patch (of 8):
Firstly, the no_page_table() is meaningless for hugetlb which is a no-op
there, because a hugetlb page always satisfies:
- vma_is_anonymous() == false
- vma->vm_ops->fault != NULL
So we can already safely remove it in hugetlb_follow_page_mask(), alongside
with the page* variable.
Meanwhile, what we do in follow_hugetlb_page() actually makes sense for a
dump: we try to fault in the page only if the page cache is already
allocated. Let's do the same here for follow_page_mask() on hugetlb.
It should so far has zero effect on real dumps, because that still goes
into follow_hugetlb_page(). But this may start to influence a bit on
follow_page() users who mimics a "dump page" scenario, but hopefully in a
good way. This also paves way for unifying the hugetlb gup-slow.

As a result of the patches "mm: Call arch_swap_restore() from
do_swap_page()" and "mm: Call arch_swap_restore() from unuse_pte()", there
are no circumstances in which a swapped-in page is installed in a page
table without first having arch_swap_restore() called on it. Therefore,
we no longer need the logic in set_pte_at() that restores the tags, so
remove it.

We would like to move away from requiring architectures to restore
metadata from swap in the set_pte_at() implementation, as this is not only
error-prone but adds complexity to the arch-specific code. This requires
us to call arch_swap_restore() before calling swap_free() whenever pages
are restored from swap. We are currently doing so everywhere except in
unuse_pte(); do so there as well.

A folio turns into a Workingset during:
1) shrink_active_list() placing the folio from active to inactive list.
2) When a workingset transition is happening during the folio refault.
And when Workingset is set on a folio, PSI for memory can be accounted
during a) That folio is being reclaimed and b) Refault of that folio,
for usual reclaims.
This accounting of PSI for memory is not consistent for reclaim +
refault operation between usual reclaim and madvise(COLD/PAGEOUT) which
deactivate or proactively reclaim a folio:
a) A folio started at inactive and moved to active as part of accesses.
Workingset is absent on the folio thus refault of it when reclaimed
through MADV_PAGEOUT operation doesn't account for PSI.
b) When the same folio transition from inactive->active and then to
inactive through shrink_active_list(). Workingset is set on the folio
thus refault of it when reclaimed through MADV_PAGEOUT operation
accounts for PSI.
c) When the same folio is part of active list directly as a result of
folio refault and this was a workingset folio prior to eviction.
Workingset is set on the folio thus the refault of it when reclaimed
through MADV_PAGEOUT/MADV_COLD operation accounts for PSI.
d) MADV_COLD transfers the folio from active list to inactive
list. Such folios may not have the Workingset thus refault operation on
such folio doesn't account for PSI.
As said above, refault operation caused because of MADV_PAGEOUT on a
folio is accounts for memory PSI in b) and c) but not in a). Refault
caused by the reclaim of a folio on which MADV_COLD is performed
accounts memory PSI in c) but not in d). These behaviours are
inconsistent w.r.t usual reclaim + refault operation. Make this PSI
accounting always consistent by turning a folio into a workingset one
whenever it is leaving the active list. Also, accounting of PSI on a
folio whenever it leaves the active list as part of the
MADV_COLD/PAGEOUT operation helps the users whether they are operating
on proper folios[1].

ACPI TRBE does not have a HID for identification which could create and add
a platform device into the platform bus. Also without a platform device, it
cannot be probed and bound to a platform driver.
This creates a dummy platform device for TRBE after ascertaining that ACPI
provides required interrupts uniformly across all cpus on the system. This
device gets created inside drivers/perf/arm_pmu_acpi.c to accommodate TRBE
being built as a module.
