Subject: ocfs2: handle a symlink read error correctly
Date: Thu, 5 Dec 2024 17:16:29 +0000
Patch series "Convert ocfs2 to use folios".
Mark did a conversion of ocfs2 to use folios and sent it to me as a
giant patch for review ;-)
So I've redone it as individual patches, and credited Mark for the patches
where his code is substantially the same. It's not a bad way to do it;
his patch had some bugs and my patches had some bugs. Hopefully all our
bugs were different from each other. And hopefully Mark likes all the
changes I made to his code!
This patch (of 23):

Subject: mm/readahead: fix large folio support in async readahead
Date: Fri, 6 Dec 2024 16:30:25 +0800
When testing large folio support with XFS on our servers, we observed that
only a few large folios are mapped when reading large files via mmap.
After a thorough analysis, I identified it was caused by the
`/sys/block/*/queue/read_ahead_kb` setting. On our test servers, this
parameter is set to 128KB. After I tune it to 2MB, the large folio can
work as expected. However, I believe the large folio behavior should not
be dependent on the value of read_ahead_kb. It would be more robust if
the kernel can automatically adopt to it.
With /sys/block/*/queue/read_ahead_kb set to 128KB and performing a
sequential read on a 1GB file using MADV_HUGEPAGE, the differences in
/proc/meminfo are as follows:
- before this patch
FileHugePages: 18432 kB
FilePmdMapped: 4096 kB
- after this patch
FileHugePages: 1067008 kB
FilePmdMapped: 1048576 kB
This shows that after applying the patch, the entire 1GB file is mapped to
huge pages. The stable list is CCed, as without this patch, large folios
don't function optimally in the readahead path.
It's worth noting that if read_ahead_kb is set to a larger value that
isn't aligned with huge page sizes (e.g., 4MB + 128KB), it may still fail
to map to hugepages.

Subject: mm, compaction: don't use ALLOC_CMA in long term GUP flow
Date: Sun, 15 Dec 2024 18:01:07 +0800
Since commit 984fdba6a32e ("mm, compaction: use proper alloc_flags in
__compaction_suitable()") allow compaction to proceed when free pages
required for compaction reside in the CMA pageblocks, it's possible that
__compaction_suitable() always returns true, and in some cases, it's not
acceptable.
There are 4 NUMA nodes on my machine, and each NUMA node has 32GB of
memory. I have configured 16GB of CMA memory on each NUMA node, and
starting a 32GB virtual machine with device passthrough is extremely slow,
taking almost an hour.
During the start-up of the virtual machine, it will call
pin_user_pages_remote(..., FOLL_LONGTERM, ...) to allocate memory. Long
term GUP cannot allocate memory from CMA area, so a maximum of 16 GB of
no-CMA memory on a NUMA node can be used as virtual machine memory. Since
there is 16G of free CMA memory on the NUMA node, watermark for order-0
always be met for compaction, so __compaction_suitable() always returns
true, even if the node is unable to allocate non-CMA memory for the
virtual machine.
For costly allocations, because __compaction_suitable() always returns
true, __alloc_pages_slowpath() can't exit at the appropriate place,
resulting in excessively long virtual machine startup times.
Call trace:
__alloc_pages_slowpath
if (compact_result == COMPACT_SKIPPED ||
compact_result == COMPACT_DEFERRED)
goto nopage; // should exit __alloc_pages_slowpath() from here
In order to quickly fall back to remote node, we should remove ALLOC_CMA
both in __compaction_suitable() and __isolate_free_page() in long term GUP
flow. After this fix, starting a 32GB virtual machine with device
passthrough takes only a few seconds.

Subject: [PATCH] rust: kbuild: set `bindgen`'s Rust target version
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
Each `bindgen` release may upgrade the list of Rust targets. For instance,
currently, in their master branch [1], the latest ones are:
Nightly => {
vectorcall_abi: #124485,
ptr_metadata: #81513,
layout_for_ptr: #69835,
},
Stable_1_77(77) => { offset_of: #106655 },
Stable_1_73(73) => { thiscall_abi: #42202 },
Stable_1_71(71) => { c_unwind_abi: #106075 },
Stable_1_68(68) => { abi_efiapi: #105795 },
By default, the highest stable release in their list is used, and users
are expected to set one if they need to support older Rust versions
(e.g. see [2]).
Thus, over time, new Rust features are used by default, and at some
point, it is likely that `bindgen` will emit Rust code that requires a
Rust version higher than our minimum (or perhaps enabling an unstable
feature). Currently, there is no problem because the maximum they have,
as seen above, is Rust 1.77.0, and our current minimum is Rust 1.78.0.
Therefore, set a Rust target explicitly now to prevent going forward in
time too much and thus getting potential build failures at some point.
Since we also support a minimum `bindgen` version, and since `bindgen`
does not support passing unknown Rust target versions, we need to use
the list of our minimum `bindgen` version, rather than the latest. So,
since `bindgen` 0.65.1 had this list [3], we need to use Rust 1.68.0:
/// Rust stable 1.64
/// * `core_ffi_c` ([Tracking issue](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/94501))
=> Stable_1_64 => 1.64;
/// Rust stable 1.68
/// * `abi_efiapi` calling convention ([Tracking issue](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/65815))
=> Stable_1_68 => 1.68;
/// Nightly rust

Thus add the `--rust-target 1.68` parameter. Add a comment as well
explaining this.
An alternative would be to use the currently running (i.e. actual) `rustc`
and `bindgen` versions to pick a "better" Rust target version. However,
that would introduce more moving parts depending on the user setup and
is also more complex to implement.
Starting with `bindgen` 0.71.0 [4], we will be able to set any future
Rust version instead, i.e. we will be able to set here our minimum
supported Rust version. Christian implemented it [5] after seeing this
patch. Thanks!

It should not be possible for every user to override the EDID.
Limit it to the system administrator.

The EDID passed through sysfs is only used as a fallback if the hardware
does not provide one. To me it still feels incorrect to have this
world-writable.
