mm/debug_vm_pgtable: drop RANDOM_ORVALUE trick
commit 0b1ef4fde7a24909ff2afacffd0d6afa28b73652 upstream.
Macro RANDOM_ORVALUE was used to make sure the pgtable entry will be populated with !none data in clear tests.
The RANDOM_ORVALUE tried to cover mostly all the bits in a pgtable entry, even if there's no discussion on whether all the bits will be vaild. Both S390 and PPC64 have their own masks to avoid touching some bits. Now it's the turn for x86_64.
The issue is there's a recent report from Mikhail Gavrilov showing that this can cause a warning with the newly added pte set check in commit 8430557fc5 on writable v.s. userfaultfd-wp bit, even though the check itself was valid, the random pte is not. We can choose to mask more bits out.
However the need to have such random bits setup is questionable, as now it's already guaranteed to be true on below:
- For pte level, the pgtable entry will be installed with value from pfn_pte(), where pfn points to a valid page. Hence the pte will be !none already if populated with pfn_pte().
- For upper-than-pte level, the pgtable entry should contain a directory entry always, which is also !none.
All the cases look like good enough to test a pxx_clear() helper. Instead of extending the bitmask, drop the "set random bits" trick completely. Add some warning guards to make sure the entries will be !none before clear().

mm/debug_vm_pgtable: fix BUG_ON with pud advanced test
commit 720da1e593b85a550593b415bf1d79a053133451 upstream.
Architectures like powerpc add debug checks to ensure we find only devmap PUD pte entries. These debug checks are only done with CONFIG_DEBUG_VM. This patch marks the ptes used for PUD advanced test devmap pte entries so that we don't hit on debug checks on architecture like ppc64 as below.

Pull x86 shadow stack support from Dave Hansen: "This is the long awaited x86 shadow stack support, part of Intel's Control-flow Enforcement Technology (CET).
CET consists of two related security features: shadow stacks and indirect branch tracking. This series implements just the shadow stack part of this feature, and just for userspace.
The main use case for shadow stack is providing protection against return oriented programming attacks. It works by maintaining a secondary (shadow) stack using a special memory type that has protections against modification. When executing a CALL instruction, the processor pushes the return address to both the normal stack and to the special permission shadow stack. Upon RET, the processor pops the shadow stack copy and compares it to the normal stack copy.
For more information, refer to the links below for the earlier versions of this patch set"

mm/hugepage pud: allow arch-specific helper function to check huge page pud support
Patch series "Add support for DAX vmemmap optimization for ppc64", v6.
This patch series implements changes required to support DAX vmemmap optimization for ppc64. The vmemmap optimization is only enabled with radix MMU translation and 1GB PUD mapping with 64K page size.
The patch series also splits the hugetlb vmemmap optimization as a separate Kconfig variable so that architectures can enable DAX vmemmap optimization without enabling hugetlb vmemmap optimization. This should enable architectures like arm64 to enable DAX vmemmap optimization while they can't enable hugetlb vmemmap optimization. More details of the same are in patch "mm/vmemmap optimization: Split hugetlb and devdax vmemmap optimization".
With 64K page size for 16384 pages added (1G) we save 14 pages With 4K page size for 262144 pages added (1G) we save 4094 pages With 4K page size for 512 pages added (2M) we save 6 pages
This patch (of 13):
Architectures like powerpc would like to enable transparent huge page pud support only with radix translation. To support that add has_transparent_pud_hugepage() helper that architectures can override.

mm: Make pte_mkwrite() take a VMA
The x86 Shadow stack feature includes a new type of memory called shadow stack. This shadow stack memory has some unusual properties, which requires some core mm changes to function properly.
One of these unusual properties is that shadow stack memory is writable, but only in limited ways. These limits are applied via a specific PTE bit combination. Nevertheless, the memory is writable, and core mm code will need to apply the writable permissions in the typical paths that call pte_mkwrite(). Future patches will make pte_mkwrite() take a VMA, so that the x86 implementation of it can know whether to create regular writable or shadow stack mappings.
But there are a couple of challenges to this. Modifying the signatures of each arch pte_mkwrite() implementation would be error prone because some are generated with macros and would need to be re-implemented. Also, some pte_mkwrite() callers operate on kernel memory without a VMA.
So this can be done in a three step process. First pte_mkwrite() can be renamed to pte_mkwrite_novma() in each arch, with a generic pte_mkwrite() added that just calls pte_mkwrite_novma(). Next callers without a VMA can be moved to pte_mkwrite_novma(). And lastly, pte_mkwrite() and all callers can be changed to take/pass a VMA.
Previous work pte_mkwrite() renamed pte_mkwrite_novma() and converted callers that don't have a VMA were to use pte_mkwrite_novma(). So now change pte_mkwrite() to take a VMA and change the remaining callers to pass a VMA. Apply the same changes for pmd_mkwrite().
No functional change.

Merge tag 'mm-stable-2023-06-24-19-15' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm
Pull mm updates from Andrew Morton:
- Yosry Ahmed brought back some cgroup v1 stats in OOM logs
- Yosry has also eliminated cgroup's atomic rstat flushing
- Nhat Pham adds the new cachestat() syscall. It provides userspace with the ability to query pagecache status - a similar concept to mincore() but more powerful and with improved usability
- Mel Gorman provides more optimizations for compaction, reducing the prevalence of page rescanning
- Lorenzo Stoakes has done some maintanance work on the get_user_pages() interface
- Liam Howlett continues with cleanups and maintenance work to the maple tree code. Peng Zhang also does some work on maple tree
- Johannes Weiner has done some cleanup work on the compaction code
- David Hildenbrand has contributed additional selftests for get_user_pages()
- Thomas Gleixner has contributed some maintenance and optimization work for the vmalloc code
- Baolin Wang has provided some compaction cleanups,
- SeongJae Park continues maintenance work on the DAMON code
- Huang Ying has done some maintenance on the swap code's usage of device refcounting
- Christoph Hellwig has some cleanups for the filemap/directio code
- Ryan Roberts provides two patch series which yield some rationalization of the kernel's access to pte entries - use the provided APIs rather than open-coding accesses
- Lorenzo Stoakes has some fixes to the interaction between pagecache and directio access to file mappings
- John Hubbard has a series of fixes to the MM selftesting code
- ZhangPeng continues the folio conversion campaign
- Hugh Dickins has been working on the pagetable handling code, mainly with a view to reducing the load on the mmap_lock
- Catalin Marinas has reduced the arm64 kmalloc() minimum alignment from 128 to 8
- Domenico Cerasuolo has improved the zswap reclaim mechanism by reorganizing the LRU management
- Matthew Wilcox provides some fixups to make gfs2 work better with the buffer_head code
- Vishal Moola also has done some folio conversion work
- Matthew Wilcox has removed the remnants of the pagevec code - their functionality is migrated over to struct folio_batch
