mm: Add vma_alloc_folio()

2022-04-07T13:43:41Z

This wrapper around alloc_pages_vma() calls prep_transhuge_page(), removing the obligation from the caller. This is in the same spirit as __folio_alloc(). Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) Reviewed-by: Zi Yan Reviewed-by: William Kucharski

mm, kasan: fix __GFP_BITS_SHIFT definition breaking LOCKDEP

2022-04-01T18:46:09Z

KASAN changes that added new GFP flags mistakenly updated __GFP_BITS_SHIFT as the total number of GFP bits instead of as a shift used to define __GFP_BITS_MASK. This broke LOCKDEP, as __GFP_BITS_MASK now gets the 25th bit enabled instead of the 28th for __GFP_NOLOCKDEP. Update __GFP_BITS_SHIFT to always count KASAN GFP bits. In the future, we could handle all combinations of KASAN and LOCKDEP to occupy as few bits as possible. For now, we have enough GFP bits to be inefficient in this quick fix.

kasan, page_alloc: allow skipping memory init for HW_TAGS

2022-03-25T02:06:47Z

Add a new GFP flag __GFP_SKIP_ZERO that allows to skip memory initialization. The flag is only effective with HW_TAGS KASAN. This flag will be used by vmalloc code for page_alloc allocations backing vmalloc() mappings in a following patch. The reason to skip memory initialization for these pages in page_alloc is because vmalloc code will be initializing them instead. With the current implementation, when __GFP_SKIP_ZERO is provided, __GFP_ZEROTAGS is ignored. This doesn't matter, as these two flags are never provided at the same time. However, if this is changed in the future, this particular implementation detail can be changed as well.

kasan, page_alloc: allow skipping unpoisoning for HW_TAGS

2022-03-25T02:06:47Z

Add a new GFP flag __GFP_SKIP_KASAN_UNPOISON that allows skipping KASAN poisoning for page_alloc allocations. The flag is only effective with HW_TAGS KASAN. This flag will be used by vmalloc code for page_alloc allocations backing vmalloc() mappings in a following patch. The reason to skip KASAN poisoning for these pages in page_alloc is because vmalloc code will be poisoning them instead. Also reword the comment for __GFP_SKIP_KASAN_POISON.

kasan, mm: only define ___GFP_SKIP_KASAN_POISON with HW_TAGS

2022-03-25T02:06:47Z

Only define the ___GFP_SKIP_KASAN_POISON flag when CONFIG_KASAN_HW_TAGS is enabled. This patch it not useful by itself, but it prepares the code for additions of new KASAN-specific GFP patches.

mm: clarify __GFP_ZEROTAGS comment

2022-03-25T02:06:46Z

__GFP_ZEROTAGS is intended as an optimization: if memory is zeroed during allocation, it's possible to set memory tags at the same time with little performance impact. Clarify this intention of __GFP_ZEROTAGS in the comment.

doc: convert 'subsection' to 'section' in gfp.h

2022-03-22T22:57:00Z

Patch series "Remove remaining parts of congestion tracking code", v2. This patch (of 11): Various DOC: sections in gfp.h have subsection headers (~~~) but the place where they are included in mm-api.rst does not have section, only chapters. So convert to section headers (---) to avoid confusion. Specifically if sections are added later in mm-api.rst, an error results.

include/linux/gfp.h: further document GFP_DMA32

2022-01-15T14:30:29Z

kmalloc(..., GFP_DMA32) does not return DMA32 memory because the DMA32 kmalloc cache array is not implemented. (Reason: there is no such user in kernel). Put a short comment about this so people can understand this by reading the comment.

mm: drop node from alloc_pages_vma

2022-01-15T14:30:29Z

alloc_pages_vma is meant to allocate a page with a vma specific memory policy. The initial node parameter is always a local node so it is pointless to waste a function argument for this. Drop the parameter.
