The current implementation of the mark_victim tracepoint provides only the
process ID (pid) of the victim process. This limitation poses challenges
for userspace tools requiring real-time OOM analysis and intervention.
Although this information is available from the kernel logs, it’s not
the appropriate format to provide OOM notifications. In Android, BPF
programs are used with the mark_victim trace events to notify userspace of
an OOM kill. For consistency, update the trace event to include the same
information about the OOMed victim as the kernel logs.
- UID
In Android each installed application has a unique UID. Including
the `uid` assists in correlating OOM events with specific apps.
- Process Name (comm)
Enables identification of the affected process.
- OOM Score
Will allow userspace to get additional insight of the relative kill
priority of the OOM victim. In Android, the oom_score_adj is used to
categorize app state (foreground, background, etc.), which aids in
analyzing user-perceptible impacts of OOM events [1].
- Total VM, RSS Stats, and pgtables
Amount of memory used by the victim that will, potentially, be freed up
by killing it.

Hugetlb can now safely handle faults under the VMA lock, so allow it to do
so.
This patch may cause ltp hugemmap10 to "fail". Hugemmap10 tests hugetlb
counters, and expects the counters to remain unchanged on failure to
handle a fault.
In hugetlb_no_page(), vmf_anon_prepare() may bailout with no anon_vma
under the VMA lock after allocating a folio for the hugepage. In
free_huge_folio(), this folio is completely freed on bailout iff there is
a surplus of hugetlb pages. This will remove a folio off the freelist and
decrement the number of hugepages while ltp expects these counters to
remain unchanged on failure.
Originally this could only happen due to OOM failures, but now it may also
occur after we allocate a hugetlb folio without a suitable anon_vma under
the VMA lock. This should only happen for the first freshly allocated
hugepage in this vma.

hugetlb_fault() currently defines a vm_fault to pass to the generic
handle_userfault() function. We can move this definition to the top of
hugetlb_fault() so that it can be used throughout the rest of the hugetlb
fault path.
This will help cleanup a number of excess variables and function arguments
throughout the stack. Also, since vm_fault already has space to store the
page offset, use that instead and get rid of idx.

Patch series "Handle hugetlb faults under the VMA lock", v2.
It is generally safe to handle hugetlb faults under the VMA lock. The
only time this is unsafe is when no anon_vma has been allocated to this
vma yet, so we can use vmf_anon_prepare() instead of anon_vma_prepare() to
bailout if necessary. This should only happen for the first hugetlb page
in the vma.
Additionally, this patchset begins to use struct vm_fault within
hugetlb_fault(). This works towards cleaning up hugetlb code, and should
significantly reduce the number of arguments passed to functions.
The last patch in this series may cause ltp hugemmap10 to "fail". This is
because vmf_anon_prepare() may bailout with no anon_vma under the VMA lock
after allocating a folio for the hugepage. In free_huge_folio(), this
folio is completely freed on bailout iff there is a surplus of hugetlb
pages. This will remove a folio off the freelist and decrement the number
of hugepages while ltp expects these counters to remain unchanged on
failure. The rest of the ltp testcases pass.
This patch (of 2):
In order to handle hugetlb faults under the VMA lock, hugetlb can use
vmf_anon_prepare() to ensure we can safely prepare an anon_vma. Change it
to be a non-static function so it can be used within hugetlb as well.

Patch series "mm/zswap: optimize for dynamic zswap_pools", v3.
Dynamic pool creation has been supported for a long time, which maybe not
used so much in practice. But with the per-memcg lru merged, the current
structure of zswap_pool's lru and shrinker become less optimal.
In the current structure, each zswap_pool has its own lru, shrinker and
shrink_work, but only the latest zswap_pool will be the current used.
1. When memory has pressure, all shrinkers of zswap_pools will try to
shrink its lru list, there is no order between them.
2. When zswap limit hit, only the last zswap_pool's shrink_work will
try to shrink its own lru, which is inefficient.
A more natural way is to have a global zswap lru shared between all
zswap_pools, and so is the shrinker. The code becomes much simpler too.
Another optimization is changing zswap_pool kref to percpu_ref, which will
be taken reference by every zswap entry. So the scalability is better.

This patch (of 3):
Dynamic zswap_pool creation may create/reuse to have multiple zswap_pools
in a list, only the first will be current used.
Each zswap_pool has its own lru and shrinker, which is not necessary and
has its problem:
1. When memory has pressure, all shrinker of zswap_pools will
try to shrink its own lru, there is no order between them.
2. When zswap limit hit, only the last zswap_pool's shrink_work
will try to shrink its lru list. The rationale here was to
try and empty the old pool first so that we can completely
drop it. However, since we only support exclusive loads now,
the LRU ordering should be entirely decided by the order of
stores, so the oldest entries on the LRU will naturally be
from the oldest pool.
Anyway, having a global lru and shrinker shared by all zswap_pools is
better and efficient.

Refactor the code left in write_cache_pages into an iterator that the file
system can call to get the next folio for a writeback operation:
struct folio *folio = NULL;
while ((folio = writeback_iter(mapping, wbc, folio, &error))) {
error = <do per-folio writeback>;
}
The twist here is that the error value is passed by reference, so that the
iterator can restore it when breaking out of the loop.
Handling of the magic AOP_WRITEPAGE_ACTIVATE value stays outside the
iterator and needs is just kept in the write_cache_pages legacy wrapper.
in preparation for eventually killing it off.
Heavily based on a for_each* based iterator from Matthew Wilcox.

Collapse the two nested loops into one. This is needed as a step towards
turning this into an iterator.
Note that this drops the "index <= end" check in the previous outer loop
and just relies on filemap_get_folios_tag() to return 0 entries when index
> end. This actually has a subtle implication when end == -1 because then
the returned index will be -1 as well and thus if there is page present on
index -1, we could be looping indefinitely. But as the comment in
filemap_get_folios_tag documents this as already broken anyway we should
not worry about it here either. The fix for that would probably a change
to the filemap_get_folios_tag() calling convention.

Rework the way we deal with the cleanup after the writepage call.
First handle the magic AOP_WRITEPAGE_ACTIVATE separately from real error
returns to get it out of the way of the actual error handling path.
The split the handling on intgrity vs non-integrity branches first, and
return early using a goto for the non-ingegrity early loop condition to
remove the need for the done and done_index local variables, and for
assigning the error to ret when we can just return error directly.

Patch series "convert write_cache_pages() to an iterator", v8.
This is an evolution of the series Matthew Wilcox originally sent in June
2023, which has changed quite a bit since and now has a while based
iterator.
This patch (of 14):
mapping_set_error should only be called on 0 returns (which it ignores) or
a negative error code.
writepage_cb ends up being able to call writepage_cb on the magic
AOP_WRITEPAGE_ACTIVATE return value from ->writepage which means success
but the caller needs to unlock the page. Ignore that and just call
mapping_set_error on negative errors.
(no fixes tag as this goes back more than 20 years over various renames
and refactors so I've given up chasing down the original introduction)

The purpose is stopping splitting large folios whose mapcount are 2 or
above. Folios whose estimated_shares = 0 should be still perfect and even
better candidates than estimated_shares = 1.
Consider a pte-mapped large folio with 16 subpages, if we unmap 1-15, the
current code will split folios and reclaim them while madvise goes on this
folio; but if we unmap subpage 0, we will keep this folio and break. This
is weird.
For pmd-mapped large folios, we can still use "= 1" as the condition as
anyway we have the entire map for it. So this patch doesn't change the
condition for pmd-mapped large folios. This also explains why we had been
using "= 1" for both pmd-mapped and pte-mapped large folios before commit
07e8c82b5e ("madvise: convert madvise_cold_or_pageout_pte_range() to use
folios"), because in the past, we used the mapcount of the specific
subpage, since the subpage had pte present, its mapcount wouldn't be 0.
The problem can be quite easily reproduced by writing a small program,
unmapping the first subpage of a pte-mapped large folio vs. unmapping
anyone other than the first subpage.

Before last commit, memory compaction only migrates order-0 folios and
skips >0 order folios. Last commit splits all >0 order folios during
compaction. This commit migrates >0 order folios during compaction by
keeping isolated free pages at their original size without splitting them
into order-0 pages and using them directly during migration process.
What is different from the prior implementation:
1. All isolated free pages are kept in a NR_PAGE_ORDERS array of page
lists, where each page list stores free pages in the same order.
2. All free pages are not post_alloc_hook() processed nor buddy pages,
although their orders are stored in first page's private like buddy
pages.
3. During migration, in new page allocation time (i.e., in
compaction_alloc()), free pages are then processed by post_alloc_hook().
When migration fails and a new page is returned (i.e., in
compaction_free()), free pages are restored by reversing the
post_alloc_hook() operations using newly added
free_pages_prepare_fpi_none().
Step 3 is done for a latter optimization that splitting and/or merging
free pages during compaction becomes easier.
Note: without splitting free pages, compaction can end prematurely due to
migration will return -ENOMEM even if there is free pages. This happens
when no order-0 free page exist and compaction_alloc() return NULL.

termination earlier in compact_nodes().
The existing fatal_signal_pending() check does make compact_zone()
break out of the while loop, but it still enters the next zone/next

There was no observable benefit from the new test, it is just found

We used to rely on the returned -ENOSPC of zpool_malloc() to increase
reject_compress_poor. But the code wouldn't get to there after commit
744e188592 ("crypto: scomp - fix req->dst buffer overflow") as the new
code will goto out immediately after the special compression case happens.
So there might be no longer a chance to execute zpool_malloc now. We are
incorrectly increasing zswap_reject_compress_fail instead. Thus, we need
to fix the counters handling right after compressions return ENOSPC. This
patch also centralizes the counters handling for all of compress_poor,
compress_fail and alloc_fail.
