This patch fixes two issues:
1. Add __initdata attribute according to include/linux/init.h:
For initialized data:
You should insert __initdata between the variable name and equal
sign followed by value
2. Fix below error reported by checkpatch.pl:
ERROR: do not initialise statics to false

In a later patch we want to add stackdepot support for object owner
tracking in slub caches, which is enabled by slub_debug boot parameter.
This creates a bootstrap problem as some caches are created early in
boot when slab_is_available() is false and thus stack_depot_init()
tries to use memblock. But, as reported by Hyeonggon Yoo [1] we are
already beyond memblock_free_all(). Ideally memblock allocation should
fail, yet it succeeds, but later the system crashes, which is a
separately handled issue.
To resolve this boostrap issue in a robust way, this patch adds another
way to request stack_depot_early_init(), which happens at a well-defined
point of time. In addition to build-time CONFIG_STACKDEPOT_ALWAYS_INIT,
code that's e.g. processing boot parameters (which happens early enough)
can call a new function stack_depot_want_early_init(), which sets a flag
that stack_depot_early_init() will check.
In this patch we also convert page_owner to this approach. While it
doesn't have the bootstrap issue as slub, it's also a functionality
enabled by a boot param and can thus request stack_depot_early_init()
with memblock allocation instead of later initialization with
kvmalloc().
As suggested by Mike, make stack_depot_early_init() only attempt
memblock allocation and stack_depot_init() only attempt kvmalloc().
Also change the latter to kvcalloc(). In both cases we can lose the
explicit array zeroing, which the allocations do already.
As suggested by Marco, provide empty implementations of the init
functions for !CONFIG_STACKDEPOT builds to simplify the callers.

In a single-threaded process, the pid in kernel task_struct is the same
as the tgid, which can mark the process of page allocation. But in a
multithreaded process, only the task_struct of the thread leader has the
same pid as tgid, and the pids of other threads are different from tgid.
Therefore, tgid is recorded to provide effective information for
debugging and data statistics of multithreaded programs.
This can also be achieved by observing the task name (executable file
name) for a specific process. However, when the same program is started
multiple times, the task name is the same and the tgid is different.
Therefore, in the debugging of multi-threaded programs, combined with
the task name and tgid, more accurate runtime information of a certain
run of the program can be obtained.

The page_owner information currently includes the pid of the calling
task. That is useful as long as the task is still running. Otherwise,
the number is meaningless. To have more information about the
allocating tasks that had exited by the time the page_owner information
is retrieved, we need to store the command name of the task.
Add a new comm field into page_owner structure to store the command name
and display it when the page_owner information is retrieved.

It was found that a number of offline memcgs were not freed because they
were pinned by some charged pages that were present. Even "echo 1 >
/proc/sys/vm/drop_caches" wasn't able to free those pages. These
offline but not freed memcgs tend to increase in number over time with
the side effect that percpu memory consumption as shown in /proc/meminfo
also increases over time.
In order to find out more information about those pages that pin offline
memcgs, the page_owner feature is extended to print memory cgroup
information especially whether the cgroup is offline or not. RCU read
lock is taken when memcg is being accessed to make sure that it won't be
freed.

The snprintf() function can return a length greater than the given input
size. That will require a check for buffer overrun after each
invocation of snprintf(). scnprintf(), on the other hand, will never
return a greater length.
By using scnprintf() in selected places, we can avoid some buffer
overrun checks except after stack_depot_snprint() and after the last
snprintf().

Currently, enabling CONFIG_STACKDEPOT means its stack_table will be
allocated from memblock, even if stack depot ends up not actually used.
The default size of stack_table is 4MB on 32-bit, 8MB on 64-bit.
This is fine for use-cases such as KASAN which is also a config option
and has overhead on its own. But it's an issue for functionality that
has to be actually enabled on boot (page_owner) or depends on hardware
(GPU drivers) and thus the memory might be wasted. This was raised as
an issue [1] when attempting to add stackdepot support for SLUB's debug
object tracking functionality. It's common to build kernels with
CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG and enable slub_debug on boot only when needed, or
create only specific kmem caches with debugging for testing purposes.
It would thus be more efficient if stackdepot's table was allocated only
when actually going to be used. This patch thus makes the allocation
(and whole stack_depot_init() call) optional:
- Add a CONFIG_STACKDEPOT_ALWAYS_INIT flag to keep using the current
well-defined point of allocation as part of mem_init(). Make
CONFIG_KASAN select this flag.
- Other users have to call stack_depot_init() as part of their own init
when it's determined that stack depot will actually be used. This may
depend on both config and runtime conditions. Convert current users
which are page_owner and several in the DRM subsystem. Same will be
done for SLUB later.
- Because the init might now be called after the boot-time memblock
allocation has given all memory to the buddy allocator, change
stack_depot_init() to allocate stack_table with kvmalloc() when
memblock is no longer available. Also handle allocation failure by
disabling stackdepot (could have theoretically happened even with
memblock allocation previously), and don't unnecessarily align the
memblock allocation to its own size anymore.

Subject: lib/stackdepot: allow optional init and stack_table allocation by kvmalloc() - fixup
On FLATMEM, we call page_ext_init_flatmem_late() just before
kmem_cache_init() which means stack_depot_init() (called by page owner
init) will not recognize properly it should use kvmalloc() and not
memblock_alloc(). memblock_alloc() will also not issue a warning and
return a block memory that can be invalid and cause kernel page fault when
saving stacks, as reported by the kernel test robot [1].
Fix this by moving page_ext_init_flatmem_late() below kmem_cache_init() so
that slab_is_available() is true during stack_depot_init(). SPARSEMEM
doesn't have this issue, as it doesn't do page_ext_init_flatmem_late(),
but a different page_ext_init() even later in the boot process.
Thanks to Mike Rapoport for pointing out the FLATMEM init ordering issue.
While at it, also actually resolve a checkpatch warning in stack_depot_init()
from DRM CI, which was supposed to be in the original patch already.

"page_idle_ops" as a global var, but its scope of use within this
document. So it should be static.
"page_ext_ops" is a var used in the kernel initial phase. And other
functions are aslo used in the kernel initial phase. So they should be
__init or __initdata to reclaim memory.

However, it is unsigned int in the following 3 functions:

__set_page_owner_handle
__set_page_owner_handle
The type of "order" in argument list is unsigned int, which is
inconsistent.

All existing users of %pGp want the hex value as well as the decoded
flag names. This looks awkward (passing the same parameter to printf
twice), so move that functionality into the core. If we want, we
can make that optional with flag arguments to %pGp in the future.

Turn migrate_page_states() into a wrapper around folio_migrate_flags().
Also convert two functions only called from folio_migrate_flags() to
be folio-based. ksm_migrate_page() becomes folio_migrate_ksm() and
copy_page_owner() becomes folio_copy_owner(). folio_migrate_flags()
alone shrinks by two thirds -- 1967 bytes down to 642 bytes.

Patch series "mm: remove pfn_valid_within() and CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE".
After recent updates to freeing unused parts of the memory map, no
architecture can have holes in the memory map within a pageblock. This
makes pfn_valid_within() check and CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE configuration
option redundant.
The first patch removes them both in a mechanical way and the second patch
simplifies memory_hotplug::test_pages_in_a_zone() that had
pfn_valid_within() surrounded by more logic than simple if.
This patch (of 2):
After recent changes in freeing of the unused parts of the memory map and
rework of pfn_valid() in arm and arm64 there are no architectures that can
have holes in the memory map within a pageblock and so nothing can enable
CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE which guards non trivial implementation of
pfn_valid_within().
With that, pfn_valid_within() is always hardwired to 1 and can be
completely removed.
Remove calls to pfn_valid_within() and CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE.

Before the change page_owner recursion was detected via fetching
backtrace and inspecting it for current instruction pointer.
It has a few problems:
- it is slightly slow as it requires extra backtrace and a linear stack
scan of the result
- it is too late to check if backtrace fetching required memory
allocation itself (ia64's unwinder requires it).
To simplify recursion tracking let's use page_owner recursion flag in
'struct task_struct'.
The change make page_owner=on work on ia64 by avoiding infinite
recursion in:
kmalloc()
-> __set_page_owner()
-> save_stack()
-> unwind() [ia64-specific]
-> build_script()
-> kmalloc()
-> __set_page_owner() [we short-circuit here]
-> save_stack()
-> unwind() [recursion]

Collect the time when each allocation is freed, to help with memory
analysis with kdump/ramdump. Add the timestamp also in the page_owner
debugfs file and print it in dump_page().
Having another timestamp when we free the page helps for debugging page
migration issues. For example both alloc and free timestamps being the
same can gave hints that there is an issue with migrating memory, as
opposed to a page just being dropped during migration.

Collect the time for each allocation recorded in page owner so that
allocation "surges" can be measured.
Record the pid for each allocation recorded in page owner so that the
source of allocation "surges" can be better identified.
The above is very useful when doing memory analysis. On a crash for
example, we can get this information from kdump (or ramdump) and parse it
to figure out memory allocation problems.
Please note that on x86_64 this increases the size of struct page_owner
from 16 bytes to 32.
Vlastimil: it's not a functionality intended for production, so unless
somebody says they need to enable page_owner for debugging and this
increase prevents them from fitting into available memory, let's not
complicate things with making this optional.

The implementation of split_page_owner() prefers a count rather than the
old order of the page. When we support a variable size THP, we won't
have the order at this point, but we will have the number of pages.
So change the interface to what the caller and callee would prefer.

/proc/pagetypeinfo
Uninitialized memmaps contain garbage and in the worst case trigger
kernel BUGs, especially with CONFIG_PAGE_POISONING. They should not get
touched.
For example, when not onlining a memory block that is spanned by a zone
and reading /proc/pagetypeinfo with CONFIG_DEBUG_VM_PGFLAGS and
CONFIG_PAGE_POISONING, we can trigger a kernel BUG:
:/# echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory40/online
:/# echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory42/online
:/# cat /proc/pagetypeinfo > test.file
page:fffff2c585200000 is uninitialized and poisoned

There is not page extension available.

ZONE_DEVICE is never populated (zone->present_pages always 0).

Commit 8974558f49a6 ("mm, page_owner, debug_pagealloc: save and dump
freeing stack trace") enhanced page_owner to also store freeing stack
trace, when debug_pagealloc is also enabled. KASAN would also like to
do this [1] to improve error reports to debug e.g. UAF issues.
Kirill has suggested that the freeing stack trace saving should be also
possible to be enabled separately from KASAN or debug_pagealloc, i.e.
with an extra boot option. Qian argued that we have enough options
already, and avoiding the extra overhead is not worth the complications
in the case of a debugging option. Kirill noted that the extra stack
handle in struct page_owner requires 0.1% of memory.
This patch therefore enables free stack saving whenever page_owner is
enabled, regardless of whether debug_pagealloc or KASAN is also enabled.
KASAN kernels booted with page_owner=on will thus benefit from the
improved error reports.

Patch series "followups to debug_pagealloc improvements through
page_owner", v3.
These are followups to [1] which made it to Linus meanwhile. Patches 1
and 3 are based on Kirill's review, patch 2 on KASAN request [2]. It
would be nice if all of this made it to 5.4 with [1] already there (or
at least Patch 1).
This patch (of 3):
As noted by Kirill, commit 7e2f2a0cd17c ("mm, page_owner: record page
owner for each subpage") has introduced an off-by-one error in
__set_page_owner_handle() when looking up page_ext for subpages. As a
result, the head page page_owner info is set twice, while for the last
tail page, it's not set at all.
Fix this and also make the code more efficient by advancing the page_ext
pointer we already have, instead of calling lookup_page_ext() for each
subpage. Since the full size of struct page_ext is not known at compile
time, we can't use a simple page_ext++ statement, so introduce a
page_ext_next() inline function for that.

The debug_pagealloc functionality is useful to catch buggy page allocator
users that cause e.g. use after free or double free. When page
inconsistency is detected, debugging is often simpler by knowing the call
stack of process that last allocated and freed the page. When page_owner
is also enabled, we record the allocation stack trace, but not freeing.
This patch therefore adds recording of freeing process stack trace to page
owner info, if both page_owner and debug_pagealloc are configured and
enabled. With only page_owner enabled, this info is not useful for the
memory leak debugging use case. dump_page() is adjusted to print the
info. An example result of calling __free_pages() twice may look like
this (note the page last free stack trace):

For debugging purposes it might be useful to keep the owner info even
after page has been freed, and include it in e.g. dump_page() when
detecting a bad page state. For that, change the PAGE_EXT_OWNER flag
meaning to "page owner info has been set at least once" and add new
PAGE_EXT_OWNER_ACTIVE for tracking whether page is supposed to be
currently tracked allocated or free. Adjust dump_page() accordingly,
distinguishing free and allocated pages. In the page_owner debugfs file,
keep printing only allocated pages so that existing scripts are not
confused, and also because free pages are irrelevant for the memory
statistics or leak detection that's the typical use case of the file,
anyway.

Patch series "debug_pagealloc improvements through page_owner", v2.
The debug_pagealloc functionality serves a similar purpose on the page
allocator level that slub_debug does on the kmalloc level, which is to
detect bad users. One notable feature that slub_debug has is storing
stack traces of who last allocated and freed the object. On page level we
track allocations via page_owner, but that info is discarded when freeing,
and we don't track freeing at all. This series improves those aspects.
With both debug_pagealloc and page_owner enabled, we can then get bug
reports such as the example in Patch 4.
SLUB debug tracking additionally stores cpu, pid and timestamp. This could
be added later, if deemed useful enough to justify the additional page_ext
structure size.
This patch (of 3):
Currently, page owner info is only recorded for the first page of a
high-order allocation, and copied to tail pages in the event of a split
page. With the plan to keep previous owner info after freeing the page,
it would be benefical to record page owner for each subpage upon
allocation. This increases the overhead for high orders, but that should
be acceptable for a debugging option.
The order stored for each subpage is the order of the whole allocation.
This makes it possible to calculate the "head" pfn and to recognize "tail"
pages (quoted because not all high-order allocations are compound pages
with true head and tail pages). When reading the page_owner debugfs file,
keep skipping the "tail" pages so that stats gathered by existing scripts
don't get inflated.

Replace the indirection through struct stack_trace by using the storage
array based interfaces.
The original code in all printing functions is really wrong. It allocates a
storage array on stack which is unused because depot_fetch_stack() does not
store anything in it. It overwrites the entries pointer in the stack_trace
struct so it points to the depot storage.

Clamp buffer size to PAGE_SIZE to avoid arbitrary size allocation

This patch fixes commit 5f48f0bd4e36 ("mm, page_owner: skip unnecessary
stack_trace entries").
Because if we skip first two entries then logic of checking count value
as 2 for recursion is broken and code will go in one depth recursion.
so we need to check only one call of _RET_IP(__set_page_owner) while
checking for recursion.
Current Backtrace while checking for recursion:-
(save_stack) from (__set_page_owner) // (But recursion returns true here)
(__set_page_owner) from (get_page_from_freelist)
(get_page_from_freelist) from (__alloc_pages_nodemask)
(__alloc_pages_nodemask) from (depot_save_stack)
(depot_save_stack) from (save_stack) // recursion should return true here
(save_stack) from (__set_page_owner)
(__set_page_owner) from (get_page_from_freelist)
(get_page_from_freelist) from (__alloc_pages_nodemask+)
(__alloc_pages_nodemask) from (depot_save_stack)
(depot_save_stack) from (save_stack)
(save_stack) from (__set_page_owner)
(__set_page_owner) from (get_page_from_freelist)
Correct Backtrace with fix:

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:

and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.
