Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
"The various patchsets are summarized below. Plus of course many
indivudual patches which are described in their changelogs.

- "Allocate and free frozen pages" from Matthew Wilcox reorganizes
the page allocator so we end up with the ability to allocate and
free zero-refcount pages. So that callers (ie, slab) can avoid a
refcount inc & dec

- "Support large folios for tmpfs" from Baolin Wang teaches tmpfs to
use large folios other than PMD-sized ones

- "Fix mm/rodata_test" from Petr Tesarik performs some maintenance
and fixes for this small built-in kernel selftest

- "mas_anode_descend() related cleanup" from Wei Yang tidies up part
of the mapletree code

- "mm: fix format issues and param types" from Keren Sun implements a
few minor code cleanups

- "simplify split calculation" from Wei Yang provides a few fixes and
a test for the mapletree code

- "mm/vma: make more mmap logic userland testable" from Lorenzo
Stoakes continues the work of moving vma-related code into the
(relatively) new mm/vma.c

- "mm/page_alloc: gfp flags cleanups for alloc_contig_*()" from David
Hildenbrand cleans up and rationalizes handling of gfp flags in the
page allocator

- "readahead: Reintroduce fix for improper RA window sizing" from Jan
Kara is a second attempt at fixing a readahead window sizing issue.
It should reduce the amount of unnecessary reading

- "synchronously scan and reclaim empty user PTE pages" from Qi Zheng
addresses an issue where "huge" amounts of pte pagetables are
accumulated:

https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/cover.1718267194.git.zhengqi.arch@bytedance.com/

Qi's series addresses this windup by synchronously freeing PTE
memory within the context of madvise(MADV_DONTNEED)

- "selftest/mm: Remove warnings found by adding compiler flags" from
Muhammad Usama Anjum fixes some build warnings in the selftests
code when optional compiler warnings are enabled

tmpfs-based kernel build was demonstrated

- "zram: split page type read/write handling" from Sergey Senozhatsky
has several fixes and cleaups for zram in the area of
zram_write_page(). A watchdog softlockup warning was eliminated

- "move pagetable_*_dtor() to __tlb_remove_table()" from Kevin
Brodsky cleans up the pagetable destructor implementations. A rare
use-after-free race is fixed

- "mm/debug: introduce and use VM_WARN_ON_VMG()" from Lorenzo Stoakes
simplifies and cleans up the debugging code in the VMA merging
logic

- "Account page tables at all levels" from Kevin Brodsky cleans up
and regularizes the pagetable ctor/dtor handling. This results in
improvements in accounting accuracy

- "mm/damon: replace most damon_callback usages in sysfs with new
core functions" from SeongJae Park cleans up and generalizes
DAMON's sysfs file interface logic

- "mm/damon: enable page level properties based monitoring" from
SeongJae Park increases the amount of information which is
presented in response to DAMOS actions

- "mm/damon: remove DAMON debugfs interface" from SeongJae Park

overlaps with struct page for now. This is part of the effort to
reduce the size of struct page and to enable dynamic allocation of
memory descriptors

- "mm, swap: rework of swap allocator locks" from Kairui Song redoes
and simplifies the swap allocator locking. A speedup of 400% was
demonstrated for one workload. As was a 35% reduction for kernel
build time with swap-on-zram

- "mm: update mips to use do_mmap(), make mmap_region() internal"
from Lorenzo Stoakes reworks MIPS's use of mmap_region() so that
mmap_region() can be made MM-internal

selftests/mm: introduce uffd-wp-mremap regression test

Introduce a test that registers a range of memory for
UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT_MODE_WP without UFFD_FEATURE_EVENT_REMAP. First check
that the uffd-wp bit is set for every PTE in the range. Then mremap() the
range to a new location and check that the uffd-wp bit is clear for every
PTE in the range.

Run the test for small folios, all supported THP sizes and all supported
hugetlb sizes, and for swapped out memory, shared and private.

There was previously a bug in the kernel where the uffd-wp bits remained
set in all PTEs for this case, after fixing the kernel, the tests all
pass.

selftests/mm: use sys_pkey helpers consistently

sys_pkey_alloc, sys_pkey_free and sys_mprotect_pkey are currently used in
protections_keys.c, while pkey_sighandler_tests.c calls the libc wrappers
directly (e.g. pkey_mprotect()). This is probably ok when using glibc
(those symbols appeared a while ago), but Musl does not currently provide
them. The logging in the helpers from pkey-helpers.h can also come in
handy.

Make things more consistent by using the sys_pkey helpers in
pkey_sighandler_tests.c too. To that end their implementation is moved to
a common .c file (pkey_util.c). This also enables calling
is_pkeys_supported() outside of protections_keys.c, since it relies on
sys_pkey_{alloc,free}.

series which clean up the implementation:
- "refine mas_mab_cp()"
- "Reduce the space to be cleared for maple_big_node"
- "maple_tree: simplify mas_push_node()"
- "Following cleanup after introduce mas_wr_store_type()"

Oscar Salvador implements a bunch of consolidations and cleanups in
the hugetlb code.

- The series "Do not shatter hugezeropage on wp-fault" from Dev Jain
takes away the wp-fault time practice of turning a huge zero page
into small pages. Instead we replace the whole thing with a THP. More
consistent cleaner and potentiall saves a large number of pagefaults.

improves zswap's batching of compression and decompression. It is a
step along the way towards using Intel IAA hardware acceleration for
this zswap operation.

- The series "kasan: migrate the last module test to kunit" from
Sabyrzhan Tasbolatov completes the migration of the KASAN built-in
tests over to the KUnit framework.

- The series "implement lightweight guard pages" from Lorenzo Stoakes

selftests/mm: add self tests for guard page feature

Utilise the kselftest harmness to implement tests for the guard page
implementation.

We start by implement basic tests asserting that guard pages can be
installed, removed and that touching guard pages result in SIGSEGV. We
also assert that, in removing guard pages from a range, non-guard pages
remain intact.

We then examine different operations on regions containing guard markers
behave to ensure correct behaviour:

* Operations over multiple VMAs operate as expected.
* Invoking MADV_GUARD_INSTALL / MADV_GUARD_REMOVE via process_madvise() in
batches works correctly.
* Ensuring that munmap() correctly tears down guard markers.
* Using mprotect() to adjust protection bits does not in any way override
or cause issues with guard markers.
* Ensuring that splitting and merging VMAs around guard markers causes no
issue - i.e. that a marker which 'belongs' to one VMA can function just
as well 'belonging' to another.
* Ensuring that madvise(..., MADV_DONTNEED) and madvise(..., MADV_FREE)
do not remove guard markers.
* Ensuring that mlock()'ing a range containing guard markers does not
cause issues.
* Ensuring that mremap() can move a guard range and retain guard markers.
* Ensuring that mremap() can expand a guard range and retain guard
markers (perhaps moving the range).
* Ensuring that mremap() can shrink a guard range and retain guard markers.
* Ensuring that forking a process correctly retains guard markers.
* Ensuring that forking a VMA with VM_WIPEONFORK set behaves sanely.
* Ensuring that lazyfree simply clears guard markers.
* Ensuring that userfaultfd can co-exist with guard pages.
* Ensuring that madvise(..., MADV_POPULATE_READ) and
madvise(..., MADV_POPULATE_WRITE) error out when encountering
guard markers.
* Ensuring that madvise(..., MADV_COLD) and madvise(..., MADV_PAGEOUT) do
not remove guard markers.

If any test is unable to be run due to lack of permissions, that test is
skipped.

Merge tag 'net-next-6.13' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next

Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
"The most significant set of changes is the per netns RTNL. The new
behavior is disabled by default, regression risk should be contained.

Notably the new config knob PTP_1588_CLOCK_VMCLOCK will inherit its
default value from PTP_1588_CLOCK_KVM, as the first is intended to be
a more reliable replacement for the latter.

Core:

- Started a very large, in-progress, effort to make the RTNL lock
scope per network-namespace, thus reducing the lock contention
significantly in the containerized use-case, comprising:
- RCU-ified some relevant slices of the FIB control path
- introduce basic per netns locking helpers
- namespacified the IPv4 address hash table
- remove rtnl_register{,_module}() in favour of
rtnl_register_many()
- refactor rtnl_{new,del,set}link() moving as much validation as
possible out of RTNL lock
- convert all phonet doit() and dumpit() handlers to RCU
- convert IPv4 addresses manipulation to per-netns RTNL
- convert virtual interface creation to per-netns RTNL
the per-netns lock infrastructure is guarded by the
CONFIG_DEBUG_NET_SMALL_RTNL knob, disabled by default ad interim.

- Introduce NAPI suspension, to efficiently switching between busy
polling (NAPI processing suspended) and normal processing.

- Migrate the IPv4 routing input, output and control path from direct
ToS usage to DSCP macros. This is a work in progress to make ECN
handling consistent and reliable.

- Add drop reasons support to the IPv4 rotue input path, allowing
better introspection in case of packets drop.

- Make FIB seqnum lockless, dropping RTNL protection for read access.

- Make inet{,v6} addresses hashing less predicable.

- Allow providing timestamp OPT_ID via cmsg, to correlate TX packets
and timestamps

Things we sprinkled into general kernel code:

- Add small file operations for debugfs, to reduce the struct ops
size.

- Refactoring and optimization for the implementation of page_frag
API, This is a preparatory work to consolidate the page_frag
implementation.

Netfilter:

- Optimize set element transactions to reduce memory consumption

- Extended netlink error reporting for attribute parser failure.

- Make legacy xtables configs user selectable, giving users the
option to configure iptables without enabling any other config.

- Address a lot of false-positive RCU issues, pointed by recent CI
improvements.

BPF:

- Put xsk sockets on a struct diet and add various cleanups. Overall,
this helps to bump performance by 12% for some workloads.

- Extend BPF selftests to increase coverage of XDP features in
combination with BPF cpumap.

- Optimize and homogenize bpf_csum_diff helper for all archs and also
add a batch of new BPF selftests for it.

- Extend netkit with an option to delegate skb->{mark,priority}
scrubbing to its BPF program.

- Make the bpf_get_netns_cookie() helper available also to tc(x) BPF
programs.

Protocols:

- Introduces 4-tuple hash for connected udp sockets, speeding-up
significantly connected sockets lookup.

- Add a fastpath for some TCP timers that usually expires after
close, the socket lock contention.

- Add inbound and outbound xfrm state caches to speed up state
lookups.

- Avoid sending MPTCP advertisements on stale subflows, reducing
risks on loosing them.

- Make neighbours table flushing more scalable, maintaining per
device neigh lists.

Driver API:

- Introduce a unified interface to configure transmission H/W
shaping, and expose it to user-space via generic-netlink.

- Add support for per-NAPI config via netlink. This makes napi
configuration persistent across queues removal and re-creation.
Requires driver updates, currently supported drivers are:
nVidia/Mellanox mlx4 and mlx5, Broadcom brcm and Intel ice.

- Add ethtool support for writing SFP / PHY firmware blocks.

- Track RSS context allocation from ethtool core.

- Implement support for mirroring to DSA CPU port, via TC mirror
offload.

- Consolidate FDB updates notification, to avoid duplicates on
device-specific entries.

- Expose DPLL clock quality level to the user-space.

- Support master-slave PHY config via device tree.

Tests and tooling:

- forwarding: introduce deferred commands, to simplify the cleanup
phase

Drivers:

- Updated several drivers - Amazon vNic, Google vNic, Microsoft vNic,
Intel e1000e and Broadcom Tigon3 - to use netdev-genl to link the
IRQs and queues to NAPI IDs, allowing busy polling and better
introspection.

mm: page_frag: fix a compile error when kernel is not compiled

page_frag test module is an out of tree module, but built
using KDIR as the main kernel tree, the mm test suite is
just getting skipped if newly added page_frag test module
fails to compile due to kernel not yet compiled.

Fix the above problem by ensuring both kernel is built first
and a newer kernel which has page_frag_cache.h is used.

Merge branch 'replace-page_frag-with-page_frag_cache-part-1'

Yunsheng Lin says:

====================
Replace page_frag with page_frag_cache (Part-1)

This is part 1 of "Replace page_frag with page_frag_cache",
which mainly contain refactoring and optimization for the
implementation of page_frag API before the replacing.

As the discussion in [1], it would be better to target net-next
tree to get more testing as all the callers page_frag API are
in networking, and the chance of conflicting with MM tree seems
low as implementation of page_frag API seems quite self-contained.

After [2], there are still two implementations for page frag:

1. mm/page_alloc.c: net stack seems to be using it in the
rx part with 'struct page_frag_cache' and the main API
being page_frag_alloc_align().
2. net/core/sock.c: net stack seems to be using it in the
tx part with 'struct page_frag' and the main API being
skb_page_frag_refill().

This patchset tries to unfiy the page frag implementation
by replacing page_frag with page_frag_cache for sk_page_frag()
first. net_high_order_alloc_disable_key for the implementation
in net/core/sock.c doesn't seems matter that much now as pcp
is also supported for high-order pages:
commit 44042b449872 ("mm/page_alloc: allow high-order pages to
be stored on the per-cpu lists")

As the related change is mostly related to networking, so
targeting the net-next. And will try to replace the rest
of page_frag in the follow patchset.

After this patchset:
1. Unify the page frag implementation by taking the best out of
two the existing implementations: we are able to save some space
for the 'page_frag_cache' API user, and avoid 'get_page()' for
the old 'page_frag' API user.
2. Future bugfix and performance can be done in one place, hence
improving maintainability of page_frag's implementation.

mm: page_frag: add a test module for page_frag

The testing is done by ensuring that the fragment allocated

binded to a specified cpu will pop the fragment from the
ptr_ring and free the fragment.
