Add a kselftest for the dax/kmem whole-device "state" sysfs attribute
(/sys/bus/dax/devices/daxX.Y/state), which transitions a kmem-backed
dax device between "unplugged", "online" and "online_movable".
The kselftest also includes a test to demonstrate the force-unbind
does not deadlock - but this is destructive (the dax device can never
be rebound), so it only runs when DAX_KMEM_TEST_UNBIND=1 is set.
Provisioning a devdax device and binding it to kmem needs daxctl/ndctl
out of scope for an in-tree selftest. As the test mutates a device's
memory, the operator opts in by naming it in DAX_KMEM_TEST_DEV (or
"auto" to pick the first kmem-bound device); it SKIPs when unset, when
no device is present, or when the memory cannot be freed to a baseline.
When a device is available it validates the interface contract:
- online / online_movable actually add memory (MemTotal grows),
- online is idempotent,
- switching between online types without unplug is rejected,
- unplug removes memory and the reported state is "unplugged"
- invalid input is rejected,
- unplug and unbind tolerate blocks toggled out-of-band through the
per-block memoryX/state interface.
One specific regression test:
online -> unplug -> online_movable -> unplug
Re-online must re-reserve per-range resources so subsequent unplug
actually offlines and removes instead of silently reporting success
while the memory stays online.

Each HMM test open-codes the same buffer initialization sequence: allocate
main buffer, assign file descriptor and size, allocate mirror buffer, then
perform mmap mapping. Factor out this repeated logic into a standalone
hmm_buffer_alloc() helper to eliminate ~35 open-coded copies.
The new helper supports distinct mmap_size and mirror_size parameters to
fit scenarios with THP alignment padding or per-page snapshot flags. It
also exposes prot, flags and fd arguments, enabling support for
MAP_SHARED, MAP_HUGETLB and file-backed mappings.
Eliminates ~360 lines of redundant boilerplate code. Fixes a missing NULL
pointer check bug in the hmm_buffer_alloc() previously used only by the
migration benchmark, now subsumed by this new unified helper.

run_vmtests.sh runs on-fault-limit as the nobody user via "sudo -u nobody
./on-fault-limit", guarded by a check that nobody can access the binary
("sudo -u nobody ls ./on-fault-limit").
The guard resolves the relative path from the inherited working directory,
which only requires search permission on the test directory itself.
Classic sudo passes the relative path through to execve() the same way, so
the two agree. However, sudo-rs (the default sudo implementation since
Ubuntu 25.10) canonicalizes the command to an absolute path before
executing it, which requires search permission on every ancestor
directory. When the kernel tree lives under a private home directory
(mode 0750, the Ubuntu default for new users since 21.04), the guard
passes but the execution fails with "command not found", and the test is
reported as a false FAIL:
# running sudo -u nobody ./on-fault-limit
sudo: './on-fault-limit': command not found
# [FAIL]
Wrap the command in "sh -c" so that sudo only resolves the shell binary,
and the relative path is resolved by nobody's shell from the inherited
working directory, matching what the guard checks. This is the only "sudo
-u nobody" invocation in the script; uid, cwd, rlimits (including
RLIMIT_MEMLOCK, which this test exercises) and the exit status are
unchanged through sh.
Verified on Ubuntu 26.04 (sudo-rs 0.2.13): the test now runs and passes
instead of failing. Verified on Ubuntu 24.04 (sudo 1.9.15p5): behavior is
unchanged.

check_file_mmap() faults a page in the middle of a file mapping and
expects the mmap read-around path to make neighbouring pages resident.
The test currently counts only pages after the faulted page.
That misses valid read-around on systems with large base page sizes. On
arm64 with 64K pages and the default 128K readahead setting, the
read-around window is two pages wide and centred on the faulting page.
Faulting page 32 makes pages 31 and 32 resident, so the forward-only scan
from page 33 reports ra_pages == 0 even though a neighbouring page was
brought in.
Keep the existing readahead assertion, but count resident neighbouring
pages on both sides of the faulted page. This fixes the 64K-page false
failure without teaching the selftest to compute the expected readahead
window from sysfs or other implementation details.

In order to lay the foundation for work that permits us to track the
virtual page offset of MAP_PRIVATE file-backed mappings, we abstract the
assignment of vma->vm_pgoff to vma_set_pgoff().
We additionally add a lock check here using the newly introduced
vma_assert_can_modify(). This asserts the VMA write lock if the VMA is
attached.
We also assert that, if this is an anonymous VMA and unfaulted, that its
(virtual) page offset is equal to the page offset of the VMA's address.
We must be careful about MAP_PRIVATE-/dev/zero which violates fundamental
assumptions about anonymous memory, so we check for !vma->vm_file after
using vma_is_anonymous() which these mappings satisfy.
Additionally, we only perform the assert if CONFIG_MMU is defined, as nommu
does not set vma->vm_pgoff = addr >> PAGE_SHIFT. This isn't really relevant
to rmap as it has no anon rmap (nor needs it), but we must avoid it
asserting falsely.
All of this logic is kept in assert_sane_pgoff() to keep things clear.
In order to maintain correctness given this assert, we also update
__install_special_mapping() to invoke vma_set_range() after it's set
vma->vm_ops (which determine whether the VMA is anonymous or not).
We do not use vma_set_pgoff() in vm_area_init_from(), as at the point of
forking, we don't necessarily have correct locking state.
Updating vma_set_range() covers most cases, but in addition to this we also
update insert_vm_struct(), compat_set_vma_from_desc() and nommu callers.
We also update vma_add_pgoff() and vma_sub_pgoff() to use vma_set_pgoff().
While we're here, we drop a BUG_ON() and update insert_vm_struct()'s
comment to reflect the fact anonymous mappings can be added here.
Finally, we update the CONFIG_MMU, CONFIG_PER_VMA_LOCK defines in the VMA
userland tests so IS_ENABLED() will work correctly with them.
No functional change intended.

vma_assert_write_locked() and vma_assert_attached() are useful for their
own purposes, however VMA code absolutely does allow the modification of
non-write locked VMAs if they are at that point detached (i.e. unreachable
from anywhere).
It's therefore useful to be able to assert that a VMA is either
detached (modification doesn't matter) or write locked (you're explicitly
locked for modification).
Therefore introduce vma_assert_can_modify() for this purpose.
While we're here, make vma_is_attached() available generally - if
!CONFIG_PER_VMA_LOCK, then there's no sense in which a VMA is
detached (vma_mark_detached() is a noop), so have this default to true in
this case.
Also update VMA userland tests to reflect this change, correcting the
previously open-coded vma_assert_[attached,detached]() there.

The family of vma_interval_tree_() functions manipulate the
address_space (which, of course, is generally referred to as 'mapping')
reverse mapping, but are named the 'VMA' interval tree.
VMAs may be mapped by an anon_vma, an address_space, or both. Therefore
calling the mapping interval tree a 'VMA' interval tree is rather
confusing.
This is also inconsistent with the anon_vma_interval_tree_*() functions
which explicitly reference the rmap object to which they pertain.
Rename the vma_interval_tree_*() functions to mapping_rmap_tree_*() to
correct this.
We will rename the anon rmap functions similarly in a subsequent patch.
No functional change intended.

The file-backed mapping interval tree functions vma_interval_tree_*()
accept a raw rb_root_cached pointer to determine the tree in which they are
operating.
However, in each case, this is always associated with an address_space data
type.
So simply pass a pointer to that instead to simplify the code, and more
clearly differentiate between these operations and those concerning
anonymous mappings.
While we're here, make the generated interval tree functions static as they
do not need to be used externally (any previously existing external users
have now been removed).
We also rename VMA parameters from 'node' to 'vma' as calling this a node
is simply confusing, update the input index types to pgoff_t since they
reference page offsets and rename the parameters to pgoff_start and
pgoff_last.
No functional change intended.

Patch series "mm: make VMA page offset handling more consistent", v2.
This series performs a series of cleanups and improvements around how the
vma->vm_pgoff field is used.
Folios belonging to file-backed mappings are simply indexed by the page
offset within the file they map (excepting pfnmap and driver mappings
which sometimes do things different).
However, anonymous folios belonging to pure anonymous mappings are indexed
by their "virtual" page offset, which is equal to addr >> PAGE_SHIFT at
the time at which the VMA was first faulted in.
The page offset of a VMA is stored in vma->vm_pgoff and indicates the page
offset of the start of the VMA range, whether it be file-backed or
anonymous.
The work here both cleans up how we reference this field, as well as
laying the foundations for a future series which addresses the
inconsistency of CoW'd folios in MAP_PRIVATE-file backed mappings, which
are indexed as if they were file-backed but behave as if they were
anonymous.
This future series will make it such that all anonymous folios are indexed
by virtual page offset whether belonging to VMAs who satisfy
vma_is_anonymous() or MAP_PRIVATE-mapped file-backed mappings.
This series:
* Exposes vma_start_pgoff() and updates the kernel to use it consistently.
* Adds and uses the useful vma_end_pgoff() helper.
* Parameterises the file-backed mapping helpers vma_interval_tree_*()
by address_space rather than rb_root_cached.
* Renames: the misleadingly-named vma_interval_tree_*() helpers to
mapping_rmap_tree_*() to be consistent with the renamed
anon_rmap_tree_*().
* Parameterises anon_rmap_tree_*() by anon_vma.
* Moves mm/interval_tree.c to the rmap section.
* Adds vmg_*() helpers for page offset.
* Clarifies the confusing vmg_adjust_set_range() function.
* Introduces linear_page_delta() to provide relative pgoff within a VMA.
* Replaces open-coded versions of linear_page_delta() and
linear_page_index() with invocations of these functions.
* Introduces and uses vma_assert_can_modify() to account for whether a VMA
can be modified (detached or write locked).
* Adds and uses vma_[add,sub]_pgoff() to adjust VMA page offset.
* Moves __install_special_mapping() to vma.c.
* Makes vma_set_range() static and internal to vma.c.
* Introduces and makes use of vma_set_pgoff().
* Fixes incorrect vma.h header inclusion.
* Defaults VMA userland tests to 64-bit vma flags size.
* Updates VMA userland tests to give better output on failure.
* Various smaller cleanups.
* Updated the vma_set_pgoff() assert to account for MAP_PRIVATE /dev/zero
correctly.
This patch (of 33):
vma_last_pgoff() already lives there, so it's a bit odd to keep
vma_start_pgoff() in mm/interval_tree.c. Move them together.
These each return unsigned long, which pgoff_t is typedef'd to. Make this
consistent and have these functions return pgoff_t instead.
Additionally, express vma_last_pgoff() in terms of vma_start_pgoff(), since
we wrap the vma->vm_pgoff access, we may as well use it here.
Also while we're here, const-ify the VMA and cleanup a bit.
Also update the VMA userland tests to reflect the change.
No functional change intended.

The KSM NUMA merge test allocates identical pages on different NUMA nodes
and verifies KSM behavior with merge_across_nodes enabled and disabled.
On systems with memoryless NUMA nodes, for example:
#numactl -H
available: 2 nodes (0,4)
.....
node 0 cpus: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15
node 0 size: 14825 MB
node 0 free: 1382 MB
node 4 cpus:
node 4 size: 0 MB
node 4 free: 0 MB
the test may attempt to allocate memory on a node without memory, causing
numa_alloc_onnode() to fail and resulting in a spurious test failure.
The test currently checks numa_num_configured_nodes() to determine whether
sufficient NUMA nodes are available. However, configured nodes do not
necessarily have memory.
Reuse the existing get_first_mem_node() and get_next_mem_node() helpers to
locate NUMA nodes that actually contain memory, and skip the test when
fewer than two such nodes are available.

Patch series "selftests/mm: avoid false failures in hugetlb and KSM
tests", v3.
This series fixes issues in the hugetlb and KSM MM selftest categories
that can report failures when the prerequisites for the tests are not
satisfied.
Patch 1 updates the hugetlb selftest helpers to handle -EINVAL when
attempting to configure gigantic HugeTLB pages via nr_hugepages. PowerPC
hash MMU pSeries systems expose gigantic hugepage sizes but do not allow
runtime allocation of such pages, causing the sysfs write to fail. Handle
this case gracefully and continue running the test instead of aborting.
Patch 2 fixes the KSM NUMA merge test on systems with memoryless NUMA
nodes. The test currently relies on the number of configured NUMA nodes
and may attempt allocations on nodes that have no memory, resulting in
spurious failures. Use the existing helpers to identify NUMA nodes that
contain memory and skip the test when fewer than two such nodes are
available.
Patch 3 fixes a pre-existing operator precedence issue in ksm_tests, where
a ternary expression combined with logical OR operators could be evaluated
differently than intended. Added parentheses to ensure the correct
evaluation order.
These changes improve handling of unsupported test configurations and
unmet test prerequisites, avoiding spurious failures.
This patch (of 3):
Some MM selftests attempt to configure the amount of HugeTLB pages of
different sizes by writing to nr_hugepages.
PowerPC hash MMU pSeries systems advertise gigantic hugepage sizes but do
not support runtime allocation of such pages, writes to the corresponding
nr_hugepages file fail with -EINVAL. This causes the test to bail out
even though the failure is due to a platform limitation rather than the
functionality being tested.
Ignore -EINVAL when configuring nr_hugepages so that tests continue to run
on systems where gigantic hugepage allocation is unsupported.

copy_present_page() is the private-anon pinned-exclusive fork path.
Snapshot the RWP additions into tools/include/uapi/linux/userfaultfd.h so
the selftest builds without requiring "make headers" first, matching the
mechanism established by commit 580ea358af ("selftests/mm: fix
additional build errors for selftests").

In the ensure_file() function, the "not_exist" code path checks whether
$dir exists as a regular file. However, the intent is to verify that the
target file ($file) does not exist, not the $dir. Testing $dir makes the
existence check effectively useless -- it tests the wrong path and thus
never catches the case where the file is unexpectedly present.
Replace $dir with $file so the not_exist verification targets the correct
path.

Non-cooperarive uffd events are inherently racy and can happen in parallel
with other userfaultfd operations.
During event tests in uffd-unit-tests, the uffd monitor calls
UFFDIO_UNREGISTER upon receiving UFFD_EVENT_REMOVE.
In parallel, the faulting_process() verifies that the removed memory is
actually zeroed.
If a verification read wins the race with UFFDIO_UNREGISTER, it causes a
missing fault that uffd monitor would receive after UFFDIO_UNREGISTER is
complete. The monitor resolves the fault using UFFDIO_COPY that fails
with -ENOENT which means that VMA has been changed (see commit
27d02568f5 ("userfaultfd: mcopy_atomic: return -ENOENT when no
compatible VMA found")).
Treat -ENOENT returned by UFFDIO_COPY as non-fatal, the same way -EEXIST
is treated for concurrent faults, and don't fail the test.

Writing a non-zero value to a kdamond's 'refresh_ms' sysfs file should
make DAMON periodically update the read-only sysfs files on its own,
without the user writing update keywords such as 'update_schemes_stats' to
the 'state' file. This behavior has no test coverage.
Add a test that starts a kdamond with refresh_ms set and a 'stat' scheme
whose default access pattern matches every monitored region, then polls
the scheme's 'nr_tried' stats file directly, without requesting an update.
The value can become non-zero only via the periodic refresh, so the test
confirms refresh_ms works; with refresh_ms disabled the stat stays zero
and the test fails.

Patch series "selftests/damon: test kdamond refresh_ms", v2.
The kdamond 'refresh_ms' sysfs file makes DAMON periodically update its
read-only sysfs files (DAMOS stats, tuned monitoring intervals and the
kdamond pid) on its own, so users don't have to write update keywords such
as 'update_schemes_stats' to the 'state' file. It has no selftest
coverage.
The first patch adds refresh_ms support to the _damon_sysfs.py test
control module. The second adds a test that sets refresh_ms and confirms
a scheme's stats are updated under sysfs without an explicit update
request; the test skips on kernels that predate the refresh_ms file.
Tested on current mainline under a DAMON-enabled kernel: the new test
passes and the existing DAMON selftests show no new failures.
This patch (of 2):
The Kdamond class has no way to set the kdamond-level 'refresh_ms' sysfs
file, which makes DAMON periodically update the read-only sysfs files
(DAMOS stats, tuned monitoring intervals and the kdamond pid) on its own.
Add a 'refresh_ms' parameter to Kdamond. When it is set (including to
zero, to disable the periodic update), write it before turning the kdamond
on, so tests can exercise the auto-update behavior. Leaving it unset
keeps the previous behavior of not touching the file, so callers running
against kernels without the feature are unaffected.
