This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using
git grep -l '\<k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'
to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.
Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.
For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:
Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)
Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)
Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)
(where TYPE may also be *VAR)
The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

The vduse_iova_range_v2 and vduse_iotlb_entry_v2 structures are both
defined in a way that adds implicit padding and is incompatible between
i386 and x86_64 userspace because of the different structure alignment
requirements. Building the header with -Wpadded shows these new warnings:
vduse.h:305:1: error: padding struct size to alignment boundary with 4 bytes [-Werror=padded]
vduse.h:374:1: error: padding struct size to alignment boundary with 4 bytes [-Werror=padded]
Change the amount of padding in these two structures to align them to
64 bit words and avoid those problems. Since the v1 vduse_iotlb_entry
already has an inconsistent size, do not attempt to reuse the structure
but rather list the members indiviudally, with a fixed amount of
padding.

Currently if a user enqueues a work item using schedule_delayed_work() the
used wq is "system_wq" (per-cpu wq) while queue_delayed_work() use
WORK_CPU_UNBOUND (used when a cpu is not specified). The same applies to
schedule_work() that is using system_wq and queue_work(), that makes use
again of WORK_CPU_UNBOUND.
This lack of consistency cannot be addressed without refactoring the API.
alloc_workqueue() treats all queues as per-CPU by default, while unbound
workqueues must opt-in via WQ_UNBOUND.
This default is suboptimal: most workloads benefit from unbound queues,
allowing the scheduler to place worker threads where they’re needed and
reducing noise when CPUs are isolated.
This continues the effort to refactor workqueue APIs, which began with
the introduction of new workqueues and a new alloc_workqueue flag in:
commit 128ea9f6cc ("workqueue: Add system_percpu_wq and system_dfl_wq")
commit 930c2ea566 ("workqueue: Add new WQ_PERCPU flag")
This change adds a new WQ_PERCPU flag to explicitly request
alloc_workqueue() to be per-cpu when WQ_UNBOUND has not been specified.
With the introduction of the WQ_PERCPU flag (equivalent to !WQ_UNBOUND),
any alloc_workqueue() caller that doesn’t explicitly specify WQ_UNBOUND
must now use WQ_PERCPU.
Once migration is complete, WQ_UNBOUND can be removed and unbound will
become the implicit default.

The allocation granularity of bounce pages is PAGE_SIZE. This may cause
even small IO requests to occupy an entire bounce page exclusively. The
kind of memory waste will be more significant when PAGE_SIZE is larger
than 4KB (e.g. arm64 with 64KB pages).
So, optimize it by using fixed 4KB bounce maps and iova allocation
granularity. A single IO request occupies at least a 4KB bounce page
instead of the entire memory page of PAGE_SIZE.

Lacking the support of device specific mapping supported in virtio,
VDUSE must trick the DMA API in order to make virtio-vdpa transport

This will be fixed by this patch. Thanks to the new mapping operations
support by virtio and vDPA. VDUSE can simply switch to advertise its
specific mappings operations to virtio via virtio-vdpa then DMA API is
not needed for VDUSE any more and iova domain could be used as the

Add missing idr_destroy() call in vduse_exit() to properly free the

The vduse_idr is initialized via DEFINE_IDR() at line 136 and used throughout
the VDUSE (vDPA Device in Userspace) driver for device ID management. The fix
follows the documented pattern in lib/idr.c and matches the cleanup approach
used by other drivers.
This leak was discovered through comprehensive module testing with cumulative

Patch series "mm/vdpa: correct misuse of non-direct-reclaim __GFP_NOFAIL
and improve related doc and warn", v4.
__GFP_NOFAIL carries the semantics of never failing, so its callers do not
check the return value:
%__GFP_NOFAIL: The VM implementation _must_ retry infinitely: the caller
cannot handle allocation failures. The allocation could block
indefinitely but will never return with failure. Testing for
failure is pointless.
However, __GFP_NOFAIL can sometimes fail if it exceeds size limits or is
used with GFP_ATOMIC/GFP_NOWAIT in a non-sleepable context. This patchset
handles illegal using __GFP_NOFAIL together with GFP_ATOMIC lacking
__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM(without this, we can't do anything to reclaim memory
to satisfy the nofail requirement) and improve related document and
warnings.
The proper size limits for __GFP_NOFAIL will be handled separately after
more discussions.
This patch (of 3):
mm doesn't support non-blockable __GFP_NOFAIL allocation. Because
persisting in providing __GFP_NOFAIL services for non-block users who
cannot perform direct memory reclaim may only result in an endless busy
loop.
Therefore, in such cases, the current mm-core may directly return a NULL
pointer:
static inline struct page *
__alloc_pages_slowpath(gfp_t gfp_mask, unsigned int order,
struct alloc_context *ac)
{
...
if (gfp_mask & __GFP_NOFAIL) {
/*
* All existing users of the __GFP_NOFAIL are blockable, so warn
* of any new users that actually require GFP_NOWAIT
*/
if (WARN_ON_ONCE_GFP(!can_direct_reclaim, gfp_mask))
goto fail;
...
}
...
fail:
warn_alloc(gfp_mask, ac->nodemask,
"page allocation failure: order:%u", order);
got_pg:
return page;
}
Unfortuantely, vpda does that nofail allocation under non-sleepable lock.
A possible way to fix that is to move the pages allocation out of the lock
into the caller, but having to allocate a huge number of pages and
auxiliary page array seems to be problematic as well per Tetsuon: " You
should implement proper error handling instead of using __GFP_NOFAIL if
count can become large."
So I chose another way, which does not release kernel bounce pages when
user tries to register userspace bounce pages. Then we can avoid
allocating in paths where failure is not expected.(e.g in the release).
We pay this for more memory usage as we don't release kernel bounce pages
but further optimizations could be done on top.

Add sysfs interface for each vduse virtqueue to
get/set the affinity for irq callback. This might
be useful for performance tuning when the irq callback
affinity mask contains more than one CPU.

Since virtio-vdpa bus driver already support interrupt
affinity spreading mechanism, let's implement the
set_vq_affinity callback to bring it to vduse device.
After we get the virtqueue's affinity, we can spread
IRQs between CPUs in the affinity mask, in a round-robin
manner, to run the irq callback.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- Daniel Verkamp has contributed a memfd series ("mm/memfd: add
F_SEAL_EXEC") which permits the setting of the memfd execute bit at
memfd creation time, with the option of sealing the state of the X
bit.
- Peter Xu adds a patch series ("mm/hugetlb: Make huge_pte_offset()
thread-safe for pmd unshare") which addresses a rare race condition
related to PMD unsharing.
- Several folioification patch serieses from Matthew Wilcox, Vishal
Moola, Sidhartha Kumar and Lorenzo Stoakes
- Johannes Weiner has a series ("mm: push down lock_page_memcg()")
which does perform some memcg maintenance and cleanup work.
- SeongJae Park has added DAMOS filtering to DAMON, with the series
"mm/damon/core: implement damos filter".
These filters provide users with finer-grained control over DAMOS's
actions. SeongJae has also done some DAMON cleanup work.
- Kairui Song adds a series ("Clean up and fixes for swap").
- Vernon Yang contributed the series "Clean up and refinement for maple
tree".
- Yu Zhao has contributed the "mm: multi-gen LRU: memcg LRU" series. It
adds to MGLRU an LRU of memcgs, to improve the scalability of global
reclaim.
- David Hildenbrand has added some userfaultfd cleanup work in the
series "mm: uffd-wp + change_protection() cleanups".
- Christoph Hellwig has removed the generic_writepages() library
function in the series "remove generic_writepages".

his series "Some small improvements for compaction".
- Sidhartha Kumar is doing some maintenance work on struct page in his
series "Get rid of tail page fields".
- David Hildenbrand contributed some cleanup, bugfixing and
generalization of pte management and of pte debugging in his series
"mm: support __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SWP_EXCLUSIVE on all architectures with
swap PTEs".
- Mel Gorman and Neil Brown have removed the __GFP_ATOMIC allocation
flag in the series "Discard __GFP_ATOMIC".
- Sergey Senozhatsky has improved zsmalloc's memory utilization with
his series "zsmalloc: make zspage chain size configurable".
- Joey Gouly has added prctl() support for prohibiting the creation of
writeable+executable mappings.
The previous BPF-based approach had shortcomings. See "mm: In-kernel
support for memory-deny-write-execute (MDWE)".
- Waiman Long did some kmemleak cleanup and bugfixing in the series
"mm/kmemleak: Simplify kmemleak_cond_resched() & fix UAF".

"mm: multi-gen LRU: improve".
- Jiaqi Yan has provided some enhancements to our memory error
statistics reporting, mainly by presenting the statistics on a
per-node basis. See the series "Introduce per NUMA node memory error
statistics".
- Mel Gorman has a second and hopefully final shot at fixing a CPU-hog
regression in compaction via his series "Fix excessive CPU usage
during compaction".
- Christoph Hellwig does some vmalloc maintenance work in the series
"cleanup vfree and vunmap".
- Christoph Hellwig has removed block_device_operations.rw_page() in
ths series "remove ->rw_page".

Add a limit to 'config->vq_num' which is user controlled data which
comes from an vduse_ioctl to prevent large memory allocations.
Micheal says - This limit is somewhat arbitrary.
However, currently virtio pci and ccw are limited to a 16 bit vq number.
While MMIO isn't it is also isn't used with lots of VQs due to
current lack of support for per-vq interrupts.
Thus, the 0xffff limit on number of VQs corresponding
to a 16-bit VQ number seems sufficient for now.
This is found using static analysis with smatch.
