      Crash: add lock to serialize crash hotplug handling · e2a8f20d
      Baoquan He authored 
      Eric reported that handling corresponding crash hotplug event can be
failed easily when many memory hotplug event are notified in a short
period.  They failed because failing to take __kexec_lock.

=======

The memory hotplug events are notified very quickly and very many, while
the handling of crash hotplug is much slower relatively.  So the atomic
variable __kexec_lock and kexec_trylock() can't guarantee the
serialization of crash hotplug handling.

Here, add a new mutex lock __crash_hotplug_lock to serialize crash hotplug
handling specifically.  This doesn't impact the usage of __kexec_lock.

      selftests/mm: fix awk usage in charge_reserved_hugetlb.sh and hugetlb_reparenting_test.sh that may cause error

According to the awk manual, the -e option does not need to be specified
in front of 'program' (unless you need to mix program-file).

The redundant -e option can cause error when users use awk tools other
than gawk (for example, mawk does not support the -e option).

Error Example:
awk: not an option: -e

      mm: mempolicy: keep VMA walk if both MPOL_MF_STRICT and MPOL_MF_MOVE are specified · 24526268
      Yang Shi authored 
      When calling mbind() with MPOL_MF_{MOVE|MOVEALL} | MPOL_MF_STRICT, kernel
should attempt to migrate all existing pages, and return -EIO if there is
misplaced or unmovable page.  Then commit 6f4576e3 ("mempolicy: apply
page table walker on queue_pages_range()") messed up the return value and
didn't break VMA scan early ianymore when MPOL_MF_STRICT alone.  The
return value problem was fixed by commit a7f40cfe ("mm: mempolicy:
make mbind() return -EIO when MPOL_MF_STRICT is specified"), but it broke
the VMA walk early if unmovable page is met, it may cause some pages are
not migrated as expected.

The code should conceptually do:

 if (MPOL_MF_MOVE|MOVEALL)
     scan all vmas
     try to migrate the existing pages
     return success
 else if (MPOL_MF_MOVE* | MPOL_MF_STRICT)
     scan all vmas
     try to migrate the existing pages
     return -EIO if unmovable or migration failed
 else /* MPOL_MF_STRICT alone */
     break early if meets unmovable and don't call mbind_range() at all
 else /* none of those flags */
     check the ranges in test_walk, EFAULT without mbind_range() if discontig.

Fixed the behavior.

      mm/damon/vaddr-test: fix memory leak in damon_do_test_apply_three_regions() · 45120b15
      Jinjie Ruan authored 
      When CONFIG_DAMON_VADDR_KUNIT_TEST=y and making CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK=y
and CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK_AUTO_SCAN=y, the below memory leak is detected.

Since commit 9f86d624 ("mm/damon/vaddr-test: remove unnecessary
variables"), the damon_destroy_ctx() is removed, but still call
damon_new_target() and damon_new_region(), the damon_region which is
allocated by kmem_cache_alloc() in damon_new_region() and the damon_target
which is allocated by kmalloc in damon_new_target() are not freed.  And
the damon_region which is allocated in damon_new_region() in
damon_set_regions() is also not freed.

So use damon_destroy_target to free all the damon_regions and damon_target.

      mm, memcg: reconsider kmem.limit_in_bytes deprecation · 4597648f
      Michal Hocko authored 
      This reverts commits 86327e8e ("memcg: drop kmem.limit_in_bytes") and
partially reverts 58056f77 ("memcg, kmem: further deprecate
kmem.limit_in_bytes") which have incrementally removed support for the
kernel memory accounting hard limit.  Unfortunately it has turned out that
there is still userspace depending on the existence of
memory.kmem.limit_in_bytes [1].  The underlying functionality is not
really required but the non-existent file just confuses the userspace
which fails in the result.  The patch to fix this on the userspace side
has been submitted but it is hard to predict how it will propagate through
the maze of 3rd party consumers of the software.

Now, reverting alone 86327e8e is not an option because there is
another set of userspace which cannot cope with ENOTSUPP returned when
writing to the file.  Therefore we have to go and revisit 58056f77 as
well.  There are two ways to go ahead.  Either we give up on the
deprecation and fully revert 58056f77 as well or we can keep
kmem.limit_in_bytes but make the write a noop and warn about the fact. 
This should work for both known breaking workloads which depend on the
existence but do not depend on the hard limit enforcement.

Note to backporters to stable trees.  a8c49af3 ("memcg: add per-memcg
total kernel memory stat") introduced in 4.18 has added memcg_account_kmem
so the accounting is not done by obj_cgroup_charge_pages directly for v1
anymore.  Prior kernels need to add it explicitly (thanks to Johannes for
pointing this out).
