Per-page queue state is updated non-atomically, with either the page
lock or the page queue lock held. When vm_page_dequeue() is called
without the page lock, in rare cases a different thread may be
concurrently dequeuing the page with the pagequeue lock held. Because
of the non-atomic update, vm_page_dequeue() might return before queue
state is completely updated, which can lead to race conditions.
Restrict the vm_page_dequeue() interface so that it must be called
either with the page lock held or on a free page, and busy wait when
a different thread is concurrently updating queue state, which must
happen in a critical section.
While here, do some related cleanup: inline vm_page_dequeue_locked()
into its only caller and delete a prototype for the unimplemented
vm_page_requeue_locked(). Replace the volatile qualifier for "queue"
added in r333703 with explicit uses of atomic_load_8() where required.

r336020 introduced pcpu_page_alloc(), replacing page_alloc() as the

not honour malloc(9) flags such as M_ZERO or M_NODUMP, so fix that.
r336020 also changed counter(9) to initialize each counter using a

smp_rendezvous() will only execute the callback on the current CPU

by virtue of the fact that UMA gratuitously zeroes slabs when importing
them into a zone.
Prior to SI_SUB_CPU, all_cpus is clear, so with r336020 we weren't

If fault started before vmspace_fork() locked the map, and then during

possible that the fault instantiate the page into the original object
when the page was already copied into the new object (see
vm_map_split() for the orig/new objects terminology). This can happen
if split found a busy page (e.g. from the fault) and slept dropping
the objects lock, which allows the swap pager to instantiate
read-behind pages for the fault. Then the restart of the scan can see
a page in the scanned range, where it was already copied to the upper
object.
Fix it by instantiating the read-ahead pages before
swap_pager_getpages() method drops the lock to allocate pbuf. The
object scan would see the whole range prefilled with the busy pages
and not proceed the range.
Note that vm_fault rechecks the map generation count after the object
unlock, so that it restarts the handling if raced with split, and
re-lookups the right page from the upper object.

Most kernel memory that is allocated after boot does not need to be
executable. There are a few exceptions. For example, kernel modules
do need executable memory, but they don't use UMA or malloc(9). The
BPF JIT compiler also needs executable memory and did use malloc(9)
until r317072.
(Note that a side effect of r316767 was that the "small allocation"
path in UMA on amd64 already returned non-executable memory. This
meant that some calls to malloc(9) or the UMA zone(9) allocator could
return executable memory, while others could return non-executable
memory. This change makes the behavior consistent.)
This change makes malloc(9) return non-executable memory unless the new
M_EXEC flag is specified. After this change, the UMA zone(9) allocator
will always return non-executable memory, and a KASSERT will catch
attempts to use the M_EXEC flag to allocate executable memory using
uma_zalloc() or its variants.
Allocations that do need executable memory have various choices. They
may use the M_EXEC flag to malloc(9), or they may use a different VM
interfact to obtain executable pages.
Now that malloc(9) again allows executable allocations, this change also
reverts most of r317072.

The intent is to avoid pessimizing the latter case with per-cpu specific

In particular contrary to the claim in r334824, M_ZERO is sometimes being
used for such zones. But the zeroing method is completely different and
braching on it in the fast path for regular zones is a waste of time.
Turns out there is code which ends up passing M_ZERO to counters.
Since counters zero unconditionally on their own, just ignore drop the
flag in that place.
Nothing in the tree uses it and pcpu zones have a fundamentally different use
case than the regular zones - they are not supposed to be allocated and freed
all the time.
This reduces pollution in the allocation fast path.
trashing freed memory and checking that allocated memory is properly
trashed, and also of keeping a bitset of freed items. Trashing/checking
creates a lot of CPU cache poisoning, while keeping debugging bitsets
consistent creates a lot of contention on UMA zone lock(s). The performance
difference between INVARIANTS kernel and normal one is mostly attributed
to UMA debugging, rather than to all KASSERT checks in the kernel.
Add loader tunable vm.debug.divisor that allows either to turn off UMA
debugging completely, or turn it on only for a fraction of allocations,
while still running all KASSERTs in kernel. That allows to run INVARIANTS
kernels in production environments without reducing load by orders of
magnitude, but still doing useful extra checks.
Default value is 1, meaning debug every allocation. Value of 0 would
disable UMA debugging completely. Values above 1 enable debugging only
for every N-th item. It isn't possible to strictly follow the number,
but still amount of debugging is reduced roughly by (N-1)/N percent.

This allows the creation of zones which don't do any caching in front of
the keg. If the zone is a cache zone, this means that UMA will not
attempt any memory allocations when allocating an item from the backend.
This is intended for use after a panic by netdump, but likely has other
applications.

Pages allocated from a given reservation may belong to different
objects. It is therefore possible for vm_page_ps_test() to be called
with the base page's object unlocked. Check for this case before
asserting that the object lock is held.

SKZ63 Processor May Hang When Executing Code In an HLE Transaction
Region
Problem: Under certain conditions, if the processor acquires an HLE
(Hardware Lock Elision) lock via the XACQUIRE instruction in the Host
Physical Address range between 40000000H and 403FFFFFH, it may hang
with an internal timeout error (MCACOD 0400H) logged into
IA32_MCi_STATUS.
Move the pages from the range into the blacklist. Add a tunable to
not waste 4M if local DoS is not the issue.

opt_compat.h is mentioned in nearly 180 files. In-progress network
driver compabibility improvements may add over 100 more so this is
closer to "just about everywhere" than "only some files" per the
guidance in sys/conf/options.
Keep COMPAT_LINUX32 in opt_compat.h as it is confined to a subset of
sys/compat/linux/*.c. A fake _COMPAT_LINUX option ensure opt_compat.h
is created on all architectures.
Move COMPAT_LINUXKPI to opt_dontuse.h as it is only used to control the
set of compiled files.

The division added in r331732 meant that we wouldn't attempt a
background laundering until at least v_free_target - v_free_min clean
pages had been freed by the page daemon since the last laundering. If
the inactive queue is depleted but not completely empty (e.g., because
it contains busy pages), it can thus take a long time to meet this
threshold. Restore the pre-r331732 behaviour of using a non-zero
background laundering threshold if at least one inactive queue scan has
elapsed since the last attempt at background laundering.

account uk_rsize will be greater than space in a slab. However,
since we have only one item per slab, it is always naturally
aligned.
Code that will panic before this change with 4k page:
z = uma_zcreate("test", 3984, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, 31, 0);
uma_zalloc(z, M_WAITOK);
A practical scenario to hit the panic is a machine with 56 CPUs
and 2 NUMA domains, which yields in zone size of 3984.

There are out of tree consumers of vm_map_min() and vm_map_max(), and
I believe there are consumers of vm_map_pmap(), although the later is
arguably less in the need of KBI-stable interface. For the consumers
benefit, make modules using this KPI not depended on the struct vm_map
layout.

Rather than using the number of inactive queue scans as a metric for
how many clean pages are being freed by the page daemon, have the
page daemon keep a running counter of the number of pages it has freed,
and have the laundry thread use that when computing the background
laundering threshold.

Add a new "interleave" allocation policy which stripes pages across
domains with a stride or width keeping contiguity within a multi-page
region.
Move the kernel to the dedicated numbered cpuset #2 making it possible
to assign kernel threads and memory policy separately from user. This
also eliminates the need for the complicated interrupt binding code.
Add a sysctl API for viewing and manipulating domainsets. Refactor some
of the cpuset_t manipulation code using the generic bitset type so that
it can be used for both. This probably belongs in a dedicated subr file.
Attempt to improve the include situation.

We must not sleep or acquire any MI VM locks if TDP_NOFAULTING is
specified. On the other hand, there were some callers in the tree
which set TDP_NOFAULTING for larger scope than needed, I fixed the
code which I wrote, but I suspect that linuxkpi and out of tree drm
drivers might abuse this still.
So only enable the mode for vm_fault_quick_hold_pages() where
vm_fault_hold() is not called when specifically asked by user. I
decided to use vm_prot_t flag to not change KPI. Since number of
flags in vm_prot_t is limited, I reused the same flag which was
already consumed for vm_map_lookup().
