Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
 "Most of the MM queue. A few things are still pending.

  Liam's maple tree rework didn't make it. This has resulted in a few
  other minor patch series being held over for next time.

  Multi-gen LRU still isn't merged as we were waiting for mapletree to
  stabilize. The current plan is to merge MGLRU into -mm soon and to
  later reintroduce mapletree, with a view to hopefully getting both
  into 6.1-rc1.

Yosry Ahmed 73b73bac90 mm: vmpressure: don't count proactive reclaim in vmpressure
memory.reclaim is a cgroup v2 interface that allows users to proactively
reclaim memory from a memcg, without real memory pressure.  Reclaim
operations invoke vmpressure, which is used: (a) To notify userspace of
reclaim efficiency in cgroup v1, and (b) As a signal for a memcg being
under memory pressure for networking (see
mem_cgroup_under_socket_pressure()).

For (a), vmpressure notifications in v1 are not affected by this change
since memory.reclaim is a v2 feature.

For (b), the effects of the vmpressure signal (according to Shakeel [1])
are as follows:
1. Reducing send and receive buffers of the current socket.
2. May drop packets on the rx path.
3. May throttle current thread on the tx path.

Since proactive reclaim is invoked directly by userspace, not by memory
pressure, it makes sense not to throttle networking.  Hence, this change
makes sure that proactive reclaim caused by memory.reclaim does not
trigger vmpressure.

Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) b8cecb9376 mm/vmscan: convert reclaim_clean_pages_from_list() to folios
Patch series "nvert much of vmscan to folios"

vmscan always operates on folios since it puts the pages on the LRU list. 
Switching all of these functions from pages to folios saves 1483 bytes of
text from removing all the baggage around calling compound_page() and
similar functions.


This patch (of 5):

This is a straightforward conversion which removes several hidden calls
to compound_head, saving 330 bytes of kernel text.

Roman Gushchin e33c267ab7 mm: shrinkers: provide shrinkers with names
Currently shrinkers are anonymous objects.  For debugging purposes they
can be identified by count/scan function names, but it's not always
useful: e.g.  for superblock's shrinkers it's nice to have at least an
idea of to which superblock the shrinker belongs.

This commit adds names to shrinkers.  register_shrinker() and
prealloc_shrinker() functions are extended to take a format and arguments
to master a name.

In some cases it's not possible to determine a good name at the time when
a shrinker is allocated.  For such cases shrinker_debugfs_rename() is
provided.

The expected format is:
    <subsystem>-<shrinker_type>[:<instance>]-<id>
For some shrinkers an instance can be encoded as (MAJOR:MINOR) pair.

After this change the shrinker debugfs directory looks like:
  $ cd /sys/kernel/debug/shrinker/
  $ ls

Roman Gushchin 5035ebc644 mm: shrinkers: introduce debugfs interface for memory shrinkers
This commit introduces the /sys/kernel/debug/shrinker debugfs interface
which provides an ability to observe the state of individual kernel memory
shrinkers.

Because the feature adds some memory overhead (which shouldn't be large
unless there is a huge amount of registered shrinkers), it's guarded by a
config option (enabled by default).

This commit introduces the "count" interface for each shrinker registered
in the system.

The output is in the following format:
<cgroup inode id> <nr of objects on node 0> <nr of objects on node 1>...
<cgroup inode id> <nr of objects on node 0> <nr of objects on node 1>...
...

To reduce the size of output on machines with many thousands cgroups, if
the total number of objects on all nodes is 0, the line is omitted.

If the shrinker is not memcg-aware or CONFIG_MEMCG is off, 0 is printed as
cgroup inode id.  If the shrinker is not numa-aware, 0's are printed for
all nodes except the first one.

This commit gives debugfs entries simple numeric names, which are not very
convenient.  The following commit in the series will provide shrinkers
with more meaningful names.

Johannes Weiner 3f1509c57b Revert "mm/vmscan: never demote for memcg reclaim"
This reverts commit 3a235693d3.

Its premise was that cgroup reclaim cares about freeing memory inside the
cgroup, and demotion just moves them around within the cgroup limit. 
Hence, pages from toptier nodes should be reclaimed directly.

However, with NUMA balancing now doing tier promotions, demotion is part
of the page aging process.  Global reclaim demotes the coldest toptier
pages to secondary memory, where their life continues and from which they
have a chance to get promoted back.  Essentially, tiered memory systems
have an LRU order that spans multiple nodes.

When cgroup reclaims pages coming off the toptier directly, there can be
colder pages on lower tier nodes that were demoted by global reclaim. 
This is an aging inversion, not unlike if cgroups were to reclaim directly
from the active lists while there are inactive pages.

Proactive reclaim is another factor.  The goal of that it is to offload
colder pages from expensive RAM to cheaper storage.  When lower tier
memory is available as an intermediate layer, we want offloading to take
advantage of it instead of bypassing to storage.

Revert the patch so that cgroups respect the LRU order spanning the memory
hierarchy.

Of note is a specific undercommit scenario, where all cgroup limits in the
system add up to <= available toptier memory.  In that case, shuffling
pages out to lower tiers first to reclaim them from there is inefficient. 
This is something could be optimized/short-circuited later on (although
care must be taken not to accidentally recreate the aging inversion). 
Let's ensure correctness first.

Minchan Kim 6d4675e601 mm: don't be stuck to rmap lock on reclaim path
The rmap locks(i_mmap_rwsem and anon_vma->root->rwsem) could be contended
under memory pressure if processes keep working on their vmas(e.g., fork,
mmap, munmap).  It makes reclaim path stuck.  In our real workload traces,
we see kswapd is waiting the lock for 300ms+(worst case, a sec) and it
makes other processes entering direct reclaim, which were also stuck on
the lock.

This patch makes lru aging path try_lock mode like shink_page_list so the
reclaim context will keep working with next lru pages without being stuck.
if it found the rmap lock contended, it rotates the page back to head of
lru in both active/inactive lrus to make them consistent behavior, which
is basic starting point rather than adding more heristic.

Since this patch introduces a new "contended" field as out-param along
with try_lock in-param in rmap_walk_control, it's not immutable any longer
if the try_lock is set so remove const keywords on rmap related functions.
Since rmap walking is already expensive operation, I doubt the const
would help sizable benefit( And we didn't have it until 5.17).

In a heavy app workload in Android, trace shows following statistics.  It
almost removes rmap lock contention from reclaim path.

NeilBrown 2282679fb2 mm: submit multipage write for SWP_FS_OPS swap-space
swap_writepage() is given one page at a time, but may be called repeatedly
in succession.

For block-device swapspace, the blk_plug functionality allows the multiple
pages to be combined together at lower layers.  That cannot be used for
SWP_FS_OPS as blk_plug may not exist - it is only active when
CONFIG_BLOCK=y.  Consequently all swap reads over NFS are single page
reads.

With this patch we pass a pointer-to-pointer via the wbc.  swap_writepage
can store state between calls - much like the pointer passed explicitly to
swap_readpage.  After calling swap_writepage() some number of times, the
state will be passed to swap_write_unplug() which can submit the combined
request.

NeilBrown d791ea676b mm: reclaim mustn't enter FS for SWP_FS_OPS swap-space
If swap-out is using filesystem operations (SWP_FS_OPS), then it is not
safe to enter the FS for reclaim.  So only down-grade the requirement for
swap pages to __GFP_IO after checking that SWP_FS_OPS are not being used.

This makes the calculation of "may_enter_fs" slightly more complex, so
move it into a separate function.  with that done, there is little value
in maintaining the bool variable any more.  So replace the may_enter_fs
variable with a may_enter_fs() function.  This removes any risk for the
variable becoming out-of-date.

NeilBrown 014bb1de4f mm: create new mm/swap.h header file
Patch series "MM changes to improve swap-over-NFS support".

Assorted improvements for swap-via-filesystem.

This is a resend of these patches, rebased on current HEAD.  The only
substantial changes is that swap_dirty_folio has replaced
swap_set_page_dirty.

Currently swap-via-fs (SWP_FS_OPS) doesn't work for any filesystem.  It
has previously worked for NFS but that broke a few releases back.  This
series changes to use a new ->swap_rw rather than ->readpage and
->direct_IO.  It also makes other improvements.

There is a companion series already in linux-next which fixes various
issues with NFS.  Once both series land, a final patch is needed which
changes NFS over to use ->swap_rw.


This patch (of 10):

Many functions declared in include/linux/swap.h are only used within mm/

Create a new "mm/swap.h" and move some of these declarations there.
Remove the redundant 'extern' from the function declarations.

Miaohe Lin 02e458d8d0 mm/vmscan: remove obsolete comment in get_scan_count
Since commit 1431d4d11a ("mm: base LRU balancing on an explicit cost
model"), the relative value of each set of LRU lists is based on cost
model instead of rotated/scanned ratio.  Cleanup the relevant comment.

Wei Yang 8b3a899abe mm/vmscan: sc->reclaim_idx must be a valid zone index
lruvec_lru_size() is only used in get_scan_count(), so the only possible
zone_idx is sc->reclaim_idx.  Since sc->reclaim_idx is ensured to be a
valid zone idex, we can remove the extra check for zone iteration.

Wei Yang 36c26128b8 mm/vmscan: reclaim only affects managed_zones
As mentioned in commit 6aa303defb ("mm, vmscan: only allocate and
reclaim from zones with pages managed by the buddy allocator") , reclaim
only affects managed_zones.

Let's adjust the code and comment accordingly.

Huang Ying c574bbe917 NUMA balancing: optimize page placement for memory tiering system
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.
