Merge tag 'mm-stable-2024-03-13-20-04' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:

 - Sumanth Korikkar has taught s390 to allocate hotplug-time page frames
   from hotplugged memory rather than only from main memory. Series
   "implement "memmap on memory" feature on s390".

 - More folio conversions from Matthew Wilcox in the series

	"Convert memcontrol charge moving to use folios"
	"mm: convert mm counter to take a folio"

 - Chengming Zhou has optimized zswap's rbtree locking, providing
   significant reductions in system time and modest but measurable
   reductions in overall runtimes. The series is "mm/zswap: optimize the
   scalability of zswap rb-tree".

 - Chengming Zhou has also provided the series "mm/zswap: optimize zswap
   lru list" which provides measurable runtime benefits in some
   swap-intensive situations.

 - And Chengming Zhou further optimizes zswap in the series "mm/zswap:
   optimize for dynamic zswap_pools". Measured improvements are modest.

 - zswap cleanups and simplifications from Yosry Ahmed in the series
   "mm: zswap: simplify zswap_swapoff()".

 - In the series "Add DAX ABI for memmap_on_memory", Vishal Verma has
   contributed several DAX cleanups as well as adding a sysfs tunable to
   control the memmap_on_memory setting when the dax device is
   hotplugged as system memory.

 - Johannes Weiner has added the large series "mm: zswap: cleanups",
   which does that.

 - More DAMON work from SeongJae Park in the series

	"mm/damon: make DAMON debugfs interface deprecation unignorable"
	"selftests/damon: add more tests for core functionalities and corner cases"
	"Docs/mm/damon: misc readability improvements"
	"mm/damon: let DAMOS feeds and tame/auto-tune itself"

 - In the series "mm/mempolicy: weighted interleave mempolicy and sysfs
   extension" Rakie Kim has developed a new mempolicy interleaving
   policy wherein we allocate memory across nodes in a weighted fashion
   rather than uniformly. This is beneficial in heterogeneous memory
   environments appearing with CXL.

 - Christophe Leroy has contributed some cleanup and consolidation work
   against the ARM pagetable dumping code in the series "mm: ptdump:
   Refactor CONFIG_DEBUG_WX and check_wx_pages debugfs attribute".

 - Luis Chamberlain has added some additional xarray selftesting in the
   series "test_xarray: advanced API multi-index tests".

 - Muhammad Usama Anjum has reworked the selftest code to make its
   human-readable output conform to the TAP ("Test Anything Protocol")
   format. Amongst other things, this opens up the use of third-party
   tools to parse and process out selftesting results.

 - Ryan Roberts has added fork()-time PTE batching of THP ptes in the
   series "mm/memory: optimize fork() with PTE-mapped THP". Mainly
   targeted at arm64, this significantly speeds up fork() when the
   process has a large number of pte-mapped folios.

 - David Hildenbrand also gets in on the THP pte batching game in his
   series "mm/memory: optimize unmap/zap with PTE-mapped THP". It
   implements batching during munmap() and other pte teardown
   situations. The microbenchmark improvements are nice.

 - And in the series "Transparent Contiguous PTEs for User Mappings"
   Ryan Roberts further utilizes arm's pte's contiguous bit ("contpte
   mappings"). Kernel build times on arm64 improved nicely. Ryan's
   series "Address some contpte nits" provides some followup work.

 - In the series "mm/hugetlb: Restore the reservation" Breno Leitao has
   fixed an obscure hugetlb race which was causing unnecessary page
   faults. He has also added a reproducer under the selftest code.

 - In the series "selftests/mm: Output cleanups for the compaction
   test", Mark Brown did what the title claims.

 - Kinsey Ho has added the series "mm/mglru: code cleanup and
   refactoring".

 - Even more zswap material from Nhat Pham. The series "fix and extend
   zswap kselftests" does as claimed.

 - In the series "Introduce cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() to fix DAX
   regression" Mathieu Desnoyers has cleaned up and fixed rather a mess
   in our handling of DAX on archiecctures which have virtually aliasing
   data caches. The arm architecture is the main beneficiary.

 - Lokesh Gidra's series "per-vma locks in userfaultfd" provides
   dramatic improvements in worst-case mmap_lock hold times during
   certain userfaultfd operations.

 - Some page_owner enhancements and maintenance work from Oscar Salvador
   in his series

	"page_owner: print stacks and their outstanding allocations"
	"page_owner: Fixup and cleanup"

 - Uladzislau Rezki has contributed some vmalloc scalability
   improvements in his series "Mitigate a vmap lock contention". It
   realizes a 12x improvement for a certain microbenchmark.

 - Some kexec/crash cleanup work from Baoquan He in the series "Split
   crash out from kexec and clean up related config items".

 - Some zsmalloc maintenance work from Chengming Zhou in the series

	"mm/zsmalloc: fix and optimize objects/page migration"
	"mm/zsmalloc: some cleanup for get/set_zspage_mapping()"

 - Zi Yan has taught the MM to perform compaction on folios larger than
   order=0. This a step along the path to implementaton of the merging
   of large anonymous folios. The series is named "Enable >0 order folio
   memory compaction".

 - Christoph Hellwig has done quite a lot of cleanup work in the
   pagecache writeback code in his series "convert write_cache_pages()
   to an iterator".

 - Some modest hugetlb cleanups and speedups in Vishal Moola's series
   "Handle hugetlb faults under the VMA lock".

 - Zi Yan has changed the page splitting code so we can split huge pages
   into sizes other than order-0 to better utilize large folios. The
   series is named "Split a folio to any lower order folios".

 - David Hildenbrand has contributed the series "mm: remove
   total_mapcount()", a cleanup.

 - Matthew Wilcox has sought to improve the performance of bulk memory
   freeing in his series "Rearrange batched folio freeing".

 - Gang Li's series "hugetlb: parallelize hugetlb page init on boot"
   provides large improvements in bootup times on large machines which
   are configured to use large numbers of hugetlb pages.

 - Matthew Wilcox's series "PageFlags cleanups" does that.

 - Qi Zheng's series "minor fixes and supplement for ptdesc" does that
   also. S390 is affected.

 - Cleanups to our pagemap utility functions from Peter Xu in his series
   "mm/treewide: Replace pXd_large() with pXd_leaf()".

 - Nico Pache has fixed a few things with our hugepage selftests in his
   series "selftests/mm: Improve Hugepage Test Handling in MM
   Selftests".

 - Also, of course, many singleton patches to many things. Please see
   the individual changelogs for details.

 /**
- * write_cache_pages - walk the list of dirty pages of the given address space and write all of them.
+ * writeback_iter - iterate folio of a mapping for writeback
  * @mapping: address space structure to write
- * @wbc: subtract the number of written pages from *@wbc->nr_to_write
- * @writepage: function called for each page
- * @data: data passed to writepage function
+ * @wbc: writeback context
+ * @folio: previously iterated folio (%NULL to start)
+ * @error: in-out pointer for writeback errors (see below)
  *
- * If a page is already under I/O, write_cache_pages() skips it, even
- * if it's dirty.  This is desirable behaviour for memory-cleaning writeback,
- * but it is INCORRECT for data-integrity system calls such as fsync().  fsync()
- * and msync() need to guarantee that all the data which was dirty at the time
- * the call was made get new I/O started against them.  If wbc->sync_mode is
- * WB_SYNC_ALL then we were called for data integrity and we must wait for
- * existing IO to complete.
- *
- * To avoid livelocks (when other process dirties new pages), we first tag
- * pages which should be written back with TOWRITE tag and only then start
- * writing them. For data-integrity sync we have to be careful so that we do
- * not miss some pages (e.g., because some other process has cleared TOWRITE
- * tag we set). The rule we follow is that TOWRITE tag can be cleared only
- * by the process clearing the DIRTY tag (and submitting the page for IO).
- *
- * To avoid deadlocks between range_cyclic writeback and callers that hold
- * pages in PageWriteback to aggregate IO until write_cache_pages() returns,
- * we do not loop back to the start of the file. Doing so causes a page
- * lock/page writeback access order inversion - we should only ever lock
- * multiple pages in ascending page->index order, and looping back to the start
- * of the file violates that rule and causes deadlocks.
+ * This function returns the next folio for the writeback operation described by
+ * @wbc on @mapping and  should be called in a while loop in the ->writepages
+ * implementation.
  *
- * Return: %0 on success, negative error code otherwise
+ * To start the writeback operation, %NULL is passed in the @folio argument, and
+ * for every subsequent iteration the folio returned previously should be passed
+ * back in.
+ *
+ * If there was an error in the per-folio writeback inside the writeback_iter()
+ * loop, @error should be set to the error value.
+ *
+ * Once the writeback described in @wbc has finished, this function will return
+ * %NULL and if there was an error in any iteration restore it to @error.
+ *
+ * Note: callers should not manually break out of the loop using break or goto
+ * but must keep calling writeback_iter() until it returns %NULL.
+ *
+ * Return: the folio to write or %NULL if the loop is done.
