<title>mm: merge parameters for change_protection()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:58705444c45b3ca987b03bd9beb41bbbe41ae439</id>
<content type='text'>
change_protection() was used by either the NUMA or mprotect() code,
there's one parameter for each of the callers (dirty_accountable and
prot_numa).  Further, these parameters are passed along the calls:

  - change_protection_range()
  - change_p4d_range()
  - change_pud_range()
  - change_pmd_range()
  - ...

Now we introduce a flag for change_protect() and all these helpers to
replace these parameters.  Then we can avoid passing multiple parameters
multiple times along the way.

More importantly, it'll greatly simplify the work if we want to introduce
any new parameters to change_protection().  In the follow up patches, a
new parameter for userfaultfd write protection will be introduced.

No functional change at all.

calling hpage_nr_pages() when THP are disabled.

<content type='text'>
Currently the declaration and definition for is_vma_temporary_stack() are
scattered.  Lets make is_vma_temporary_stack() helper available for
general use and also drop the declaration from (include/linux/huge_mm.h)
which is no longer required.  While at this, rename this as
vma_is_temporary_stack() in line with existing helpers.  This should not
cause any functional change.

<title>mm: thp: KVM: Explicitly check for THP when populating secondary MMU</title>

<id>urn:sha1:005ba37cb89bcc0cf63c2029a41f8db165aeb615</id>
<content type='text'>
Add a helper, is_transparent_hugepage(), to explicitly check whether a
compound page is a THP and use it when populating KVM's secondary MMU.
The explicit check fixes a bug where a remapped compound page, e.g. for
an XDP Rx socket, is mapped into a KVM guest and is mistaken for a THP,
which results in KVM incorrectly creating a huge page in its secondary
MMU.

Fixes: 936a5fe6e6148 ("thp: kvm mmu transparent hugepage support")

The caller needs to make sure that the vma is not torn down during the
lock operation and can also use the i_mmap_rwsem for file-backed vmas.
Remove the BUG_ON. We could, as an alternative, add a test that either
vma-&gt;vm_mm-&gt;mmap_sem or vma-&gt;vm_file-&gt;f_mapping-&gt;i_mmap_rwsem are held.

<title>mm: thp: make deferred split shrinker memcg aware</title>

<id>urn:sha1:87eaceb3faa59b9b4d940ec9554ce251325d83fe</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently THP deferred split shrinker is not memcg aware, this may cause
premature OOM with some configuration.  For example the below test would
run into premature OOM easily:

$ cgcreate -g memory:thp
$ echo 4G &gt; /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/thp/memory/limit_in_bytes
$ cgexec -g memory:thp transhuge-stress 4000

transhuge-stress comes from kernel selftest.

It is easy to hit OOM, but there are still a lot THP on the deferred split
queue, memcg direct reclaim can't touch them since the deferred split
shrinker is not memcg aware.

Convert deferred split shrinker memcg aware by introducing per memcg
deferred split queue.  The THP should be on either per node or per memcg
deferred split queue if it belongs to a memcg.  When the page is
immigrated to the other memcg, it will be immigrated to the target memcg's
deferred split queue too.

Reuse the second tail page's deferred_list for per memcg list since the
same THP can't be on multiple deferred split queues.
