Halil Pasic points out [1] that the full revert of that commit (revert
in bddac7c1e02b), and that a partial revert that only reverts the
problematic case, but still keeps some of the cleanups is probably
better. 
And that partial revert [2] had already been verified by Oleksandr
Natalenko to also fix the issue, I had just missed that in the long
discussion.
So let's reinstate the cleanups from commit aa6f8dcbab47 ("swiotlb:
rework "fix info leak with DMA_FROM_DEVICE""), and effectively only
revert the part that caused problems.

Pull x86 CET-IBT (Control-Flow-Integrity) support from Peter Zijlstra:
"Add support for Intel CET-IBT, available since Tigerlake (11th gen),
which is a coarse grained, hardware based, forward edge
Control-Flow-Integrity mechanism where any indirect CALL/JMP must
target an ENDBR instruction or suffer #CP.
Additionally, since Alderlake (12th gen)/Sapphire-Rapids, speculation
is limited to 2 instructions (and typically fewer) on branch targets
not starting with ENDBR. CET-IBT also limits speculation of the next
sequential instruction after the indirect CALL/JMP [1].
CET-IBT is fundamentally incompatible with retpolines, but provides,
as described above, speculation limits itself"

This reverts commit aa6f8dcbab473f3a3c7454b74caa46d36cdc5d13.
It turns out this breaks at least the ath9k wireless driver, and
possibly others.
What the ath9k driver does on packet receive is to set up the DMA
transfer with:
int ath_rx_init(..)
..
bf->bf_buf_addr = dma_map_single(sc->dev, skb->data,
common->rx_bufsize,
DMA_FROM_DEVICE);
and then the receive logic (through ath_rx_tasklet()) will fetch
incoming packets
static bool ath_edma_get_buffers(..)
..
dma_sync_single_for_cpu(sc->dev, bf->bf_buf_addr,
common->rx_bufsize, DMA_FROM_DEVICE);
ret = ath9k_hw_process_rxdesc_edma(ah, rs, skb->data);
if (ret == -EINPROGRESS) {
/*let device gain the buffer again*/
dma_sync_single_for_device(sc->dev, bf->bf_buf_addr,
common->rx_bufsize, DMA_FROM_DEVICE);
return false;
}
and it's worth noting how that first DMA sync:
dma_sync_single_for_cpu(..DMA_FROM_DEVICE);
is there to make sure the CPU can read the DMA buffer (possibly by
copying it from the bounce buffer area, or by doing some cache flush).
The iommu correctly turns that into a "copy from bounce bufer" so that
the driver can look at the state of the packets.
In the meantime, the device may continue to write to the DMA buffer, but
we at least have a snapshot of the state due to that first DMA sync.
But that _second_ DMA sync:
dma_sync_single_for_device(..DMA_FROM_DEVICE);
is telling the DMA mapping that the CPU wasn't interested in the area
because the packet wasn't there. In the case of a DMA bounce buffer,
that is a no-op.
Note how it's not a sync for the CPU (the "for_device()" part), and it's
not a sync for data written by the CPU (the "DMA_FROM_DEVICE" part).
Or rather, it _should_ be a no-op. That's what commit aa6f8dcbab47
broke: it made the code bounce the buffer unconditionally, and changed
the DMA_FROM_DEVICE to just unconditionally and illogically be
DMA_TO_DEVICE.
[ Side note: purely within the confines of the swiotlb driver it wasn't
entirely illogical: The reason it did that odd DMA_FROM_DEVICE ->
DMA_TO_DEVICE conversion thing is because inside the swiotlb driver,
it uses just a swiotlb_bounce() helper that doesn't care about the
whole distinction of who the sync is for - only which direction to
bounce.
So it took the "sync for device" to mean that the CPU must have been
the one writing, and thought it meant DMA_TO_DEVICE. ]
Also note how the commentary in that commit was wrong, probably due to
that whole confusion, claiming that the commit makes the swiotlb code
"bounce unconditionally (that is, also
when dir == DMA_TO_DEVICE) in order do avoid synchronising back stale
data from the swiotlb buffer"
which is nonsensical for two reasons:
- that "also when dir == DMA_TO_DEVICE" is nonsensical, as that was
exactly when it always did - and should do - the bounce.
- since this is a sync for the device (not for the CPU), we're clearly
fundamentally not coping back stale data from the bounce buffers at
all, because we'd be copying *to* the bounce buffers.
So that commit was just very confused. It confused the direction of the
synchronization (to the device, not the cpu) with the direction of the
DMA (from the device).

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
"Livepatch support for 32-bit is probably the standout new feature,
otherwise mostly just lots of bits and pieces all over the board.
There's a series of commits cleaning up function descriptor handling,
which touches a few other arches as well as LKDTM. It has acks from
Arnd, Kees and Helge.
Summary:
- Enforce kernel RO, and implement STRICT_MODULE_RWX for 603.
- Add support for livepatch to 32-bit.
- Implement CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS.
- Merge vdso64 and vdso32 into a single directory.
- Fix build errors with newer binutils.
- Add support for UADDR64 relocations, which are emitted by some
toolchains. This allows powerpc to build with the latest lld.
- Fix (another) potential userspace r13 corruption in transactional
memory handling.
- Cleanups of function descriptor handling & related fixes to LKDTM.

The kernel can use to allocate executable memory. The only supported
way to do that is via __vmalloc_node_range() with the executable bit set
in the prot argument. (vmap() resets the bit via pgprot_nx()).
Once tag-based KASAN modes start tagging vmalloc allocations, executing
code from such allocations will lead to the PC register getting a tag,
which is not tolerated by the kernel.
Only tag the allocations for normal kernel pages.

Add vmalloc tagging support to HW_TAGS KASAN.
The key difference between HW_TAGS and the other two KASAN modes when it
comes to vmalloc: HW_TAGS KASAN can only assign tags to physical memory.
The other two modes have shadow memory covering every mapped virtual
memory region.
Make __kasan_unpoison_vmalloc() for HW_TAGS KASAN:
- Skip non-VM_ALLOC mappings as HW_TAGS KASAN can only tag a single
mapping of normal physical memory; see the comment in the function.
- Generate a random tag, tag the returned pointer and the allocation,
and initialize the allocation at the same time.
- Propagate the tag into the page stucts to allow accesses through
page_address(vmalloc_to_page()).
The rest of vmalloc-related KASAN hooks are not needed:
- The shadow-related ones are fully skipped.
- __kasan_poison_vmalloc() is kept as a no-op with a comment.
Poisoning and zeroing of physical pages that are backing vmalloc()
allocations are skipped via __GFP_SKIP_KASAN_UNPOISON and
__GFP_SKIP_ZERO: __kasan_unpoison_vmalloc() does that instead.
Enabling CONFIG_KASAN_VMALLOC with HW_TAGS is not yet allowed.

Once tag-based KASAN modes start tagging vmalloc() allocations, kernel
stacks start getting tagged if CONFIG_VMAP_STACK is enabled.
Reset the tag of kernel stack pointers after allocation in
arch_alloc_vmap_stack().
For SW_TAGS KASAN, when CONFIG_KASAN_STACK is enabled, the instrumentation
can't handle the SP register being tagged.
For HW_TAGS KASAN, there's no instrumentation-related issues. However,
the impact of having a tagged SP register needs to be properly evaluated,
so keep it non-tagged for now.
Note, that the memory for the stack allocation still gets tagged to catch
vmalloc-into-stack out-of-bounds accesses.

Pull xfs updates from Darrick Wong:
"The biggest change this cycle is bringing XFS' inode attribute setting
code back towards alignment with what the VFS does. IOWs, setgid bit
handling should be a closer match with ext4 and btrfs behavior.
The rest of the branch is bug fixes around the filesystem -- patching
gaps in quota enforcement, removing bogus selinux audit messages, and
fixing log corruption and problems with log recovery. There will be a
second pull request later on in the merge window with more bug fixes.
Dave Chinner will be taking over as XFS maintainer for one release
cycle, starting from the day 5.18-rc1 drops until 5.19-rc1 is tagged
so that I can focus on starting a massive design review for the
(feature complete after five years) online repair feature.
Summary:
- Fix some incorrect mapping state being passed to iomap during COW
- Don't create bogus selinux audit messages when deciding to degrade
gracefully due to lack of privilege
- Fix setattr implementation to use VFS helpers so that we drop
setgid consistently with the other filesystems
- Fix link/unlink/rename to check quota limits
- Constify xfs_name_dotdot to prevent abuse of in-kernel symbols
- Fix log livelock between the AIL and inodegc threads during
recovery
- Fix a log stall when the AIL races with pushers
- Fix stalls in CIL flushes due to pinned inode cluster buffers
during recovery
- Fix log corruption due to incorrect usage of xfs_is_shutdown vs
xlog_is_shutdown because during an induced fs shutdown, AIL
writeback must continue until the log is shut down, even if the
filesystem has already shut down"

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
"The sprinkling of SPI drivers is because we added a new one and Mark
sent us a SPI driver interface conversion pull request.
Core
----
- Introduce XDP multi-buffer support, allowing the use of XDP with
jumbo frame MTUs and combination with Rx coalescing offloads (LRO).
- Speed up netns dismantling (5x) and lower the memory cost a little.
Remove unnecessary per-netns sockets. Scope some lists to a netns.
Cut down RCU syncing. Use batch methods. Allow netdev registration
to complete out of order.
- Support distinguishing timestamp types (ingress vs egress) and
maintaining them across packet scrubbing points (e.g. redirect).
- Continue the work of annotating packet drop reasons throughout the
stack.
- Switch netdev error counters from an atomic to dynamically
allocated per-CPU counters.
- Rework a few preempt_disable(), local_irq_save() and busy waiting
sections problematic on PREEMPT_RT.
- Extend the ref_tracker to allow catching use-after-free bugs.
BPF
---
- Introduce "packing allocator" for BPF JIT images. JITed code is
marked read only, and used to be allocated at page granularity.
Custom allocator allows for more efficient memory use, lower iTLB
pressure and prevents identity mapping huge pages from getting
split.
- Make use of BTF type annotations (e.g. __user, __percpu) to enforce
the correct probe read access method, add appropriate helpers.
- Convert the BPF preload to use light skeleton and drop the
user-mode-driver dependency.
- Allow XDP BPF_PROG_RUN test infra to send real packets, enabling
its use as a packet generator.
- Allow local storage memory to be allocated with GFP_KERNEL if
called from a hook allowed to sleep.
- Introduce fprobe (multi kprobe) to speed up mass attachment (arch
bits to come later).
- Add unstable conntrack lookup helpers for BPF by using the BPF
kfunc infra.
- Allow cgroup BPF progs to return custom errors to user space.
- Add support for AF_UNIX iterator batching.
- Allow iterator programs to use sleepable helpers.
- Support JIT of add, and, or, xor and xchg atomic ops on arm64.
- Add BTFGen support to bpftool which allows to use CO-RE in kernels
without BTF info.
- Large number of libbpf API improvements, cleanups and deprecations.
Protocols
---------
- Micro-optimize UDPv6 Tx, gaining up to 5% in test on dummy netdev.
- Adjust TSO packet sizes based on min_rtt, allowing very low latency
links (data centers) to always send full-sized TSO super-frames.
- Make IPv6 flow label changes (AKA hash rethink) more configurable,
via sysctl and setsockopt. Distinguish between server and client
behavior.
- VxLAN support to "collect metadata" devices to terminate only
configured VNIs. This is similar to VLAN filtering in the bridge.
- Support inserting IPv6 IOAM information to a fraction of frames.
- Add protocol attribute to IP addresses to allow identifying where
given address comes from (kernel-generated, DHCP etc.)
- Support setting socket and IPv6 options via cmsg on ping6 sockets.
- Reject mis-use of ECN bits in IP headers as part of DSCP/TOS.
Define dscp_t and stop taking ECN bits into account in fib-rules.
- Add support for locked bridge ports (for 802.1X).
- tun: support NAPI for packets received from batched XDP buffs,
doubling the performance in some scenarios.
- IPv6 extension header handling in Open vSwitch.
- Support IPv6 control message load balancing in bonding, prevent
neighbor solicitation and advertisement from using the wrong port.
Support NS/NA monitor selection similar to existing ARP monitor.
- SMC
- improve performance with TCP_CORK and sendfile()
- support auto-corking
- support TCP_NODELAY
- MCTP (Management Component Transport Protocol)
- add user space tag control interface
- I2C binding driver (as specified by DMTF DSP0237)
- Multi-BSSID beacon handling in AP mode for WiFi.
- Bluetooth:
- handle MSFT Monitor Device Event
- add MGMT Adv Monitor Device Found/Lost events
- Multi-Path TCP:
- add support for the SO_SNDTIMEO socket option
- lots of selftest cleanups and improvements
- Increase the max PDU size in CAN ISOTP to 64 kB.
Driver API
----------
- Add HW counters for SW netdevs, a mechanism for devices which
offload packet forwarding to report packet statistics back to
software interfaces such as tunnels.
- Select the default NIC queue count as a fraction of number of
physical CPU cores, instead of hard-coding to 8.
- Expose devlink instance locks to drivers. Allow device layer of
drivers to use that lock directly instead of creating their own
which always runs into ordering issues in devlink callbacks.
- Add header/data split indication to guide user space enabling of
TCP zero-copy Rx.
- Allow configuring completion queue event size.
- Refactor page_pool to enable fragmenting after allocation.
- Add allocation and page reuse statistics to page_pool.
- Improve Multiple Spanning Trees support in the bridge to allow
reuse of topologies across VLANs, saving HW resources in switches.
- DSA (Distributed Switch Architecture):
- replay and offload of host VLAN entries
- offload of static and local FDB entries on LAG interfaces
- FDB isolation and unicast filtering

Pull tasklist_lock optimizations from Eric Biederman:
"prlimit and getpriority tasklist_lock optimizations
The tasklist_lock popped up as a scalability bottleneck on some
testing workloads. The readlocks in do_prlimit and set/getpriority are
not necessary in all cases.
Based on a cycles profile, it looked like ~87% of the time was spent
in the kernel, ~42% of which was just trying to get *some* spinlock
(queued_spin_lock_slowpath, not necessarily the tasklist_lock).
The big offenders (with rough percentages in cycles of the overall
trace):
- do_wait 11%
- setpriority 8% (done previously in commit 7f8ca0edfe07)
- kill 8%
- do_exit 5%
- clone 3%
- prlimit64 2% (this patchset)
- getrlimit 1% (this patchset)
I can't easily test this patchset on the original workload for various
reasons. Instead, I used the microbenchmark below to at least verify
there was some improvement. This patchset had a 28% speedup (12% from
baseline to set/getprio, then another 14% for prlimit).
This series used to do the setpriority case, but an almost identical
change was merged as commit 7f8ca0edfe07 ("kernel/sys.c: only take
tasklist_lock for get/setpriority(PRIO_PGRP)") so that has been
dropped from here.
One interesting thing is that my libc's getrlimit() was calling
prlimit64, so hoisting the read_lock(tasklist_lock) into sys_prlimit64
had no effect - it essentially optimized the older syscalls only. I
didn't do that in this patchset, but figured I'd mention it since it
was an option from the previous patch's discussion"

Currently kdb_putarea_size() uses copy_from_kernel_nofault() to write *to*
arbitrary kernel memory. This is obviously wrong and means the memory
modify ('mm') command is a serious risk to debugger stability: if we poke
to a bad address we'll double-fault and lose our debug session.
Fix this the (very) obvious way.
Note that there are two Fixes: tags because the API was renamed and this
patch will only trivially backport as far as the rename (and this is
probably enough). Nevertheless Christoph's rename did not introduce this
problem so I wanted to record that!

Since commit ebff7d8f270d ("mem hotunplug: fix kfree() of bootmem
memory"), we could get a resource allocated during boot via
alloc_resource(). And it's required to release the resource using
free_resource(). Howerver, many people use kfree directly which will
result in kernel BUG. In order to fix this without fixing every call
site, just leak a couple of bytes in such corner case.

Allocate the kcov buffer during KCOV_MODE_INIT in order to untie mmapping
of a kcov instance and the actual coverage collection process. Modify
kcov_mmap, so that it can be reliably used any number of times once
KCOV_MODE_INIT has succeeded.
These changes to the user-facing interface of the tool only weaken the
preconditions, so all existing user space code should remain compatible
with the new version.

Patch series "kcov: improve mmap processing", v3.
Subsequent mmaps of the same kcov descriptor currently do not update the
virtual memory of the task and yet return 0 (success). This is
counter-intuitive and may lead to unexpected memory access errors.
Also, this unnecessarily limits the functionality of kcov to only the
simplest usage scenarios. Kcov instances are effectively forever attached
to their first address spaces and it becomes impossible to e.g. reuse the
same kcov handle in forked child processes without mmapping the memory
first. This is exactly what we tried to do in syzkaller and inadvertently
came upon this behavior.
This patch series addresses the problem described above.
This patch (of 3):
Currently all ioctls are de facto processed under a spinlock in order to
serialise them. This, however, prohibits the use of vmalloc and other
memory management functions in the implementations of those ioctls,
unnecessary complicating any further changes to the code.
Let all ioctls first be processed inside the kcov_ioctl() function which
should execute the ones that are not compatible with spinlock and then
pass control to kcov_ioctl_locked() for all other ones.
KCOV_REMOTE_ENABLE is processed both in kcov_ioctl() and
kcov_ioctl_locked() as the steps are easily separable.
Although it is still compatible with a spinlock, move KCOV_INIT_TRACE
handling to kcov_ioctl(), so that the changes from the next commit are
easier to follow.

The panic_print setting allows users to collect more information in a
panic event, like memory stats, tasks, CPUs backtraces, etc. This is an
interesting debug mechanism, but currently the print event happens *after*
kmsg_dump(), meaning that pstore, for example, cannot collect a dmesg with
the panic_print extra information.
This patch changes that in 2 steps:
(a) The panic_print setting allows to replay the existing kernel log
buffer to the console (bit 5), besides the extra information dump.
This functionality makes sense only at the end of the panic()
function. So, we hereby allow to distinguish the two situations by a
new boolean parameter in the function panic_print_sys_info().
(b) With the above change, we can safely call panic_print_sys_info()
before kmsg_dump(), allowing to dump the extra information when using
pstore or other kmsg dumpers.
The additional messages from panic_print could overwrite the oldest
messages when the buffer is full. The only reasonable solution is to use
a large enough log buffer, hence we added an advice into the kernel
parameters documentation about that.

Currently the "panic_print" parameter/sysctl allows some interesting debug
information to be printed during a panic event. This is useful for
example in cases the user cannot kdump due to resource limits, or if the
user collects panic logs in a serial output (or pstore) and prefers a fast
reboot instead of a kdump.
Happens that currently there's no way to see all CPUs backtraces in a
panic using "panic_print" on architectures that support that. We do have
"oops_all_cpu_backtrace" sysctl, but although partially overlapping in the
functionality, they are orthogonal in nature: "panic_print" is a panic
tuning (and we have panics without oopses, like direct calls to panic() or
maybe other paths that don't go through oops_enter() function), and the
original purpose of "oops_all_cpu_backtrace" is to provide more
information on oopses for cases in which the users desire to continue
running the kernel even after an oops, i.e., used in non-panic scenarios.
So, we hereby introduce an additional bit for "panic_print" to allow
dumping the CPUs backtraces during a panic event.

make clang-analyzer on x86_64 defconfig caught my attention with:
kernel/taskstats.c:120:2: warning: Value stored to 'rc' is never read \
[clang-analyzer-deadcode.DeadStores]
rc = 0;
^
Commit d94a041519f3 ("taskstats: free skb, avoid returns in
send_cpu_listeners") made send_cpu_listeners() not return a value and
hence, the rc variable remained only to be used within the loop where
it is always assigned before read and it does not need any other
initialisation.
So, simply remove this unneeded dead initializing assignment.
As compilers will detect this unneeded assignment and optimize this anyway,
the resulting object code is identical before and after this change.
No functional change. No change to object code.

In the current code, the following three places need to unset
panic_on_warn before calling panic() to avoid recursive panics:
kernel/kcsan/report.c: print_report()
kernel/sched/core.c: __schedule_bug()
mm/kfence/report.c: kfence_report_error()
In order to avoid copy-pasting "panic_on_warn = 0" all over the places,
it is better to move it inside panic() and then remove it from the other
places.

All callers of cgroup_rstat_flush_locked() acquire cgroup_rstat_lock
either with spin_lock_irq() or spin_lock_irqsave().
cgroup_rstat_flush_locked() itself acquires cgroup_rstat_cpu_lock which
is a raw_spin_lock. This lock is also acquired in
cgroup_rstat_updated() in IRQ context and therefore requires _irqsave()
locking suffix in cgroup_rstat_flush_locked().
Since there is no difference between spin_lock_t and raw_spin_lock_t on
!RT lockdep does not complain here. On RT lockdep complains because the
interrupts were not disabled here and a deadlock is possible.
Acquire the raw_spin_lock_t with disabled interrupts.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace
Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
- New user_events interface. User space can register an event with the
kernel describing the format of the event. Then it will receive a
byte in a page mapping that it can check against. A privileged task
can then enable that event like any other event, which will change
the mapped byte to true, telling the user space application to start
writing the event to the tracing buffer.
- Add new "ftrace_boot_snapshot" kernel command line parameter. When
set, the tracing buffer will be saved in the snapshot buffer at boot
up when the kernel hands things over to user space. This will keep
the traces that happened at boot up available even if user space boot
up has tracing as well.
- Have TRACE_EVENT_ENUM() also update trace event field type
descriptions. Thus if a static array defines its size with an enum,
the user space trace event parsers can still know how to parse that
array.
- Add new TRACE_CUSTOM_EVENT() macro. This acts the same as the
TRACE_EVENT() macro, but will attach to an existing tracepoint. This
will make one tracepoint be able to trace different content and not
be stuck at only what the original TRACE_EVENT() macro exports.
- Fixes to tracing error logging.
- Better saving of cmdlines to PIDs when tracing (use the wakeup events
for mapping).

If a trace event has in its TP_printk():
"%*.s", len, len ? __get_str(string) : NULL
It is perfectly valid if len is zero and passing in the NULL.
Unfortunately, the runtime string check at time of reading the trace sees
the NULL and flags it as a bad string and produces a WARN_ON().
Handle this case by passing into the test function if the format has an
asterisk (star) and if so, if the length is zero, then mark it as safe.

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.

Patch series "mm: enforce pageblock_order < MAX_ORDER".
Having pageblock_order >= MAX_ORDER seems to be able to happen in corner
cases and some parts of the kernel are not prepared for it.
For example, Aneesh has shown [1] that such kernels can be compiled on
ppc64 with 64k base pages by setting FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER=8, which will
run into a WARN_ON_ONCE(order >= MAX_ORDER) in comapction code right
during boot.
We can get pageblock_order >= MAX_ORDER when the default hugetlb size is
bigger than the maximum allocation granularity of the buddy, in which
case we are no longer talking about huge pages but instead gigantic
pages.
Having pageblock_order >= MAX_ORDER can only make alloc_contig_range()
of such gigantic pages more likely to succeed.
Reliable use of gigantic pages either requires boot time allcoation or
CMA, no need to overcomplicate some places in the kernel to optimize for
corner cases that are broken in other areas of the kernel.
This patch (of 2):
Let's enforce pageblock_order < MAX_ORDER and simplify.
Especially patch #1 can be regarded a cleanup before:
[PATCH v5 0/6] Use pageblock_order for cma and alloc_contig_range
alignment. [2]

Qian Cai reported a boot crash on arm64 systems, caused by:
0fb3978b0aac ("sched/numa: Fix NUMA topology for systems with CPU-less nodes")
The bug is that node_state() must be supplied a valid node_states[] array index,
but in task_numa_placement() the max_nid search can fail with NUMA_NO_NODE,
which is not a valid index.
Fix it by checking that max_nid is a valid index.
[ mingo: Added changelog. ]
Fixes: 0fb3978b0aac ("sched/numa: Fix NUMA topology for systems with CPU-less nodes")

- Change the AUDIT_TIME_* record generation so that they are

This should help reduce noise and ensure those records which are
most relevant to the admin's audit configuration are recorded in
the audit log"

Pull watch_queue fixes from David Howells:
"Here are fixes for a couple more watch_queue bugs, both found by syzbot:
- Fix error cleanup in watch_queue_set_size() where it tries to clean
up all the pointers in the page list, even if they've not been
allocated yet[1]. Unfortunately, __free_page() doesn't treat a NULL
pointer as being "do nothing".
A second report[2] looks like it's probably the same bug, but on
arm64 rather than x86_64, but there's no reproducer.
- Fix a missing kfree in free_watch() to actually free the watch[3]"
