fs/nfsd/trace.h includes include/trace/misc/nfs.h for
show_nfs4_seq4_status() and show_rca_mask(). That header pulls in
linux/nfs.h, so every NFSD translation unit that reads trace.h also
sees the NFS_OK, NFSERR_*, and file-type enumerators.
I'm about to switch fs/nfsd/nfserr.h to an xdrgen-generated header,
which defines enum nfsstat and enum ftype with those same names. Any
translation unit that includes both headers then fails to build with
enumerator redefinition errors.
To address this, stop including trace/misc/nfs.h in fs/nfsd/trace.h.

RCA4_TYPE_MASK_* are enum constants, so the preprocessor cannot fold
them into the print format that show_rca_mask() builds for the
nfsd_cb_recall_any event. Nothing declares an eval map for them
either, so trace_event_eval_update() has no substitution to apply at
module load, and the event's format file ships the enumerator names
verbatim. trace-cmd and perf cannot decode the bmval0 field.
Declare the eval maps for the nine mask bits show_rca_mask() decodes.
The format then carries the shift counts as integers, the same shape
the SUNRPC trace points already emit from their BIT() flag decoders.

Clean up: enum nfs3_stable_how was introduced in NFSv3. NFSv2 has no
stable_how on the wire; its write path passes NFS_FILE_SYNC only as
a placeholder that the protocol ignores. The stable_how constants
describe an NFSv3 wire value, so they belong in linux/nfs3.h.

The current REMOTE_EVENT() takes as a __printk argument a string format
and a list of arguments, such as RE_PRINTK("foo=%d bar=%d", foo, bar).
Add a REMOTE_EVENT_CUSTOM_PRINTK() where the __printk argument can be a
function. This intends to support the creation of a "printk" event for
the arm64 nVHE/pKVM hypervisor with a dynamic prototype and by extension
a dynamic print format.

Tracepoint consumers use a ruleset ID and version to identify the
successful landlock_add_rule(2) call prefix used to create a domain.
LANDLOCK_MAX_NUM_RULES bounds distinct stored rules, not successful
calls: re-adding already-present rights for an object or port succeeds
without increasing num_rules. Because every successful call increments
the version, these calls can wrap the 32-bit counter and give different
prefixes the same trace identity.
Widen the counter and its trace fields to 64 bits so the counter cannot
wrap in practice, while preserving the successful-call semantics.
Saturating would alias all subsequent histories, while rejecting a call
at the limit would change otherwise valid syscall behavior solely for
trace metadata.

Rename memory attribute APIs to add a "vm_" in the name in anticipation of
moving PRIVATE tracking into guest_memfd, to allow in-place conversion
between SHARED and PRIVATE. At that point, there will effectively be two
(potential) sources of memory attributes: the VM and guest_memfd.
kvm_vm_set_mem_attributes() already has "vm" in the name to indicate that
it is a VM ioctl. Rename it to kvm_set_vm_mem_attributes() to show that it
is setting the VM's memory attributes. (Drop the VM-ioctl scoping since it
is a helper local to the file.) Update the accompanying trace function to
match.

The tracepoint documentation claims that denial and lifecycle events
expose every input needed to reproduce a verdict. Instead document how
denial, ruleset, and domain events identify the denying policy, checked
operation and object, and reason for denial. Direct consumers to generic
tracepoints for additional operational context.
State the reconstruction limits: IDs are boot-local, rule checks have no
request ID, and exported records may be lost or cross-CPU reordered.
Also replace the incorrect BPF_RAW_TRACEPOINT guidance with libbpf
SEC("tp_btf/...") attachment and refer consumers to the event prototypes
for callback argument layouts.

The signal-scope denial callback identifies its target but not the
effective signal. This loses permission-probe signal zero and makes the
file-owner hook's zero sentinel ambiguous.
Append an int signal argument to the typed-BPF callback. Preserve sig,
including zero, in hook_task_kill(). In hook_file_send_sigiotask(),
translate signum zero to SIGIO at the producer, where its meaning is
known.
Carry the effective signal and target domain ID in a private,
stack-backed context consumed synchronously. This requires no allocation
or task reference in the interrupt-capable file-owner path. Gate this
context and the remaining scope-only domain IDs with CONFIG_TRACEPOINTS.

The ptrace denial callback identifies only the tracee. Current is the
tracer during hook_ptrace_access_check(), but it is the tracee during
PTRACE_TRACEME, where the parent is the actual tracer. A consumer
therefore cannot infer both parties from the existing arguments.
Append the actual tracer task to the typed-BPF callback: current for
hook_ptrace_access_check() and parent for hook_ptrace_traceme(). Carry
it with the tracee domain ID in a private ptrace context. Both hooks
keep the selected tasks alive through synchronous dispatch, so no extra
task reference is needed.
Keep the tracefs record unchanged. The new context is available only to
typed BPF, while same_exec continues to describe the tracer that owns
the denying policy.

Network denial events report source and destination ports reconstructed
from audit data. Their zero values are ambiguous, and neither identifies
the complete endpoint that Landlock checked.
Carry the checked sockaddr and its signed length in a private trace-only
context. For an enabled event, validate the length and copy only the
initialized prefix into zeroed local storage. This prevents a typed BPF
program from reading uninitialized bytes while exposing the socket
family, socket, address, and length.
Replace the source and destination trace-record fields with one signed
port derived from the checked address. A value of -1 means that no port
was checked, zero is a valid port, and positive values use host
endianness. Bind blockers select the bind address; connect and send
blockers select the destination.

Name each event after the identity it reports. Add-rule events describe
UAPI rule insertion, so rename them after LANDLOCK_RULE_PATH_BENEATH and
LANDLOCK_RULE_NET_PORT. Check-rule events describe matches in internal
rule trees, so rename them after LANDLOCK_KEY_INODE and
LANDLOCK_KEY_NET_PORT. This remains accurate if multiple UAPI rule types
share one lookup and stored rule. Keep denial event names based on
filesystem and network families because they describe final access
decisions.
Use u64 for growable access masks passed by value to add-rule and
check-rule typed BTF callbacks. CO-RE can relocate pointer-reached
fields, but it cannot widen a scalar callback slot declared by a BPF
program. Keep native access_mask_t for internal state and trace records.
For add-rule callbacks, report the normalized per-call contribution
passed to landlock_insert_rule() and expose the complete validated flags
value. Put the ruleset and flags first as a common invocation prefix.
This distinguishes duplicate and effective-zero additions without
recovering arguments from saved syscall registers.

Filesystem topology denials are rendered with an empty blockers value
because their blocker is identified by the request type instead of an
access mask.
Introduce the private struct landlock_blockers to carry the request type
and final missing access mask to filesystem and network denial
tracepoints. Copy both members into named trace-record fields, then use
the type to print change_topology for topology denials while preserving
symbolic access masks for ordinary denials.
The request type lets typed BPF consumers distinguish topology denials
from access denials. Keeping the native access mask in a pointer-reached
field also lets CO-RE adjust existing programs' load width if
access_mask_t grows.

The new Landlock tracepoints use UAPI-prefixed __u32 and __u64 names for
callback arguments and record fields, including internal IDs that are
not Landlock UAPI values. Typed BPF consumers see callback typedef names
through BTF.
Use the kernel u32 and u64 aliases before release so the tracepoint
contract does not present internal values as Landlock UAPI types. This
changes BTF-visible typedef spelling but not integer widths, calling
conventions, tracefs formats, or record layouts.

devices and drivers
The ability to add and remove devices from a driver through the sysfs
"bind" and "unbind" files was created all those decades ago as a way
that kernel developers can iterate faster, and provide a debugging way
for users to attempt to add a new device to a driver without having to
rebuild their kernel.
This api over the years has been abused and recently come under a major
fuzzing "attack" through tools like syzbot which decided that it would
attempt to just randomly bind any driver to any type of device, causing
loads of unneeded errors and pointless kernel patches to be generated by
unsuspecting new developers.
Handle all of this by adding a new taint flag, TAINT_FORCED_BIND, which
will be set on the driver if the bind/unbind sysfs files are ever
written to. This lets kernel developers "know" that a user is
attempting to do something that is not normal, and as such, if the
kernel breaks they get to keep the shiny pieces laying around on the
floor.
The flag is 'Y' which was unused, and can remembered as the user is
"yeeting" the device being operated on here (thrown with force without
regard for the thing being thrown).
Note, the taint flag gets set _BEFORE_ the bind/unbind callback happens,
as many times crashes/oops/warnings/failures happen within the callback,
and the taint flag needs to be there to show what was being attempted.
If it were to be set after the callback happens, the oops report would
not properly reflect what foolishness was being attempted.
Fuzzing tools like syzbot, that doesn't have hand-crafted rules to keep
the tool from hitting bind/unbind, should be run with panic_on_taint
enabled so that they fall over and don't continue on, thinking that they
actually found a real issue.
Userspace operations that rely on the bind/unbind files to work around
the lack of will to upgrade a kernel image to a newer version with
proper support for new devices, or the lack of will to submit valid
device ids to driver authors, will still work properly, but now the
kernel will be flagged in a way that will show that perhaps those users
should reconsider their behavior and work to have the drivers properly
support these devices in a "native" manner.
Finally, the bind/unbind files can find real use-after-free issues with
some drivers by forcing the process to happen virtually without having
to rely on manual removal processes. Those real bugs should still be
worked on, but by adding this taint flag, developers can more easily
determine bug reports that are actually worth looking at.

Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
- Don't destroy user event fields when removal fails
User event fields are destroyed before the event is removed from
visibility. But that can fail leaving the still visible event with no
fields. Move the destroying of the fields to after the event is
successfully removed from visibility.
- Initialize function graph state is fork before calling
copy_exec_state()
For non-CLONE_VM forks, copy_exec_state() allocates a new
task_exec_state. If that allocation fails, ftrace_graph_exit_task()
will free the tasks ret_stack pointer. Since that pointer is still
using the parent's ret_stack, it mistakenly frees the parent's
pointer too.
Call ftrace_graph_init() on the task first which will NULL out the
new tasks's ret_stack and if the copy fails, it will not free
anything.
- Remove FGRAPH_MAX_INDEX
The macro FGRAPH_MAX_INDEX was added but never used. Remove it.
- Save ent_size in function graph printing of nested functions
The function graph tracer needs to look at the next event to see if
the next event is the return of the current function entry. If it is,
it prints a single line:
ktime_get();
Otherwise it prints it like a nested function:
tick_nohz_irq_exit() {
ktime_get();
kcpustat_irq_exit();
}
In order to look at the next event, it must save the current event so
that it has the information to print from it. It saves the event in
the iterator descriptor called "ent". What it doesn't save is the
ent_size of the event which is now used to know if the function graph
arguments are to be printed. The peek doesn't save the size so the
size used happens to be that of the size of the last event that was
seen.
Save the entry event size in the iterator descriptor so that the
correct size is used.
- Fix several errors with freeing data in the histogram code
The histogram code had a lot of leaked or or incorrect accounting
when failures happen. Correct them.
- Fix histogram regression of .percent and .graph modifiers
Up until 6.3 histogram values could have "percent" or "graph"
modifiers that changed how they were printed. But a change that added
restricting histograms values from being strings, stack traces and
other modifiers inadvertently prevented them from using the percent
and graph modifiers, which were legal use cases for values.
Put back the percent and graph modifiers.
- Fix various typos in the comments
- Set the trace_clock before initializing a histogram with clock
argument
The histogram API allows the user to specific which trace clock to
use via a "clock=" string. The histogram is set up first before the
clock is checked. If the passed in clock is not valid, it exits
without fully fixing up the histogram leaving it on the list and a
use-after-free can trigger.
Update the clock argument first and if it fails then exit gracefully
before the histogram trigger is placed on any lists.
- Restore :mod: trailer after parsing in ftrace_set_clr_event
The function ftrace_set_clr_event() modifies the parse string and
needs to put it back to what was passed in. It searches for ":mod:"
via a strsep() but fails to put back the first ':' in the string.
Add back the ':' in the passed in string.
- Take trace_array reference when opening a tracer options file
The options files are dynamically created and some tracers add their
own options. When a tracer adds their own list of options, the
trace_array holding them has an array to hold the list of options for
each tracer. This array increases in size via a krealloc(), and the
new entry gets a newly allocated array to hold the options of the new
tracer being added.
The element in each entry of the tracer's option array holds a
pointer back to the trace_array, a pointer to the tracer it is
associated to, a pointer to the flags of the option.
The issue is that these arrays are freed when the trace_array is
freed when its instance it represents is removed from the instances
directory. There's a race that an open of one of these options files
can happen when the instance is being removed.
Add a new helper function to be called by the open function of the
options file to iterate all existing trace_arrays under a lock and
find the one that has the given option element in one of it's tracer
arrays. If found, then update the associated trace_array's reference
counter to keep it from being freed. If not found, have the open call
return -ENODEV.
- Disable interrupts when acquiring the lock in rb_wake_up_waiters()
The function rb_wake_up_waiters() assumes it will be called in
interrupt context and does not disable irqs when taking
cpu_buffer->reader_lock, which can be called in hard interrupt
context. The issue is in PREEMPT_RT, this function is called in
thread context leaving this lock open to a deadlock.
Take the lock with interrupts disabled.
- Use rcu_assign_pointer() for tmp_ops filter hash
The tmp_ops used in update_ftrace_direct_mod() assigns its
filter_hash field directly, but that field is annotated as __rcu and
sparse complains. Assign it with rcu_assign_pointer()
- Fix use-after-free in enable_trigger_private_data_free()
The trace_event_call is accessed through the event_trigger_data's
trace_event_file pointer to put the trace_event_call on freeing. The
issue is that the trace_event_file data may have been freed already
causing a use-after-free. Add a field to the event_trigger_data that
points directly to the trace_event_call so that it can decrement its
reference directly without needing to go through the
trace_event_file.
- Fix accounting of buffer data remote headers
trace_buffer_desc_size() and trace_remote_alloc_buffer() undercount
the number of pages is needed for the asked for size as it doesn't
take into account the meta data on each page. Add a helper function
to do the calculation properly and use that in these functions.
- Catch nr_page_va overflow in ring_buffer_desc sizing
The number of pages per remote ring buffer is capped by
ring_buffer_desc::nr_page_va (32 bits). A buffer_size large enough to
overflow that field would silently allocate a descriptor smaller than
what was asked for.
- Do not resize the subbuf order if any per_cpu buffer is disabled
The mmapping of ring buffers disables resizing the subbuffers, but it
is done per-cpu whereas the subbuf size change is done for all the
per_cpu buffers under the buffer->mutex. It could change the size of
some while the mapping is happening on others. Have the resize of the
subbuf order check all the per_cpu buffers under the lock to see if
any of them is disabled before starting and causing an inconsistency
between buffers that are being mapped.

dma_alloc_attrs() passes *dma_handle to trace_dma_alloc() without
checking whether the allocation succeeded. No backend writes it on
failure: dma_direct_alloc(), iommu_dma_alloc() and the dma_map_ops
instances assign it only on the path that returns a buffer. Callers
usually pass an uninitialized automatic variable, so a failed allocation
records whatever the stack held, next to the virt_addr=(null) that marks
the record as an error:
dma_alloc: dmatrace dir=BIDIRECTIONAL dma_addr=deadbeefdeadbeef
size=1099511627776 virt_addr=0000000000000000
The device coherent pool path reaches the same call: a non-zero return
from dma_alloc_from_dev_coherent() means the request was handled, not
that it succeeded, so cpu_addr is NULL and dma_handle is untouched once
the pool runs out.
For an allocation event a NULL virt_addr already means the request
failed, so the address field carries nothing. Report 0 for it in the
event class rather than at each call site, which covers dma_alloc_pages()
and dma_alloc_sgt_err() as well.

Filesystem paths may expand fourfold when trace text escapes spaces and
other untrusted bytes. A sufficiently long representation can exhaust
the shared scratch sequence. A sibling __print_flags() helper may then
return an unterminated one-past pointer because TP_printk() argument
ordering is unspecified.
Use a fixed budget rather than the scratch space available at call time,
so output does not vary with sibling evaluation order. Limit an
untrusted string to three quarters of the trace sequence, leaving the
rest for sibling helpers and final event metadata. Compute and commit
complete escaped output transactionally so an exact fill cannot consume
the terminating NUL or poison the scratch sequence.
For strings that exceed the limit, retain the largest prefix ending at a
complete escape unit, then append a raw UTF-8 ellipsis. Keep the
helper's existing octal fallback so complete values remain unchanged.
Hex fallback would consume the same four bytes per escaped byte without
increasing the prefix or strengthening the marker. ESCAPE_NAP renders
every non-ASCII input byte in octal, so legitimate data cannot reproduce
the marker without being escaped.

Bottom-Half (BH) workqueues execute work items in softirq context.
To prevent softirqs from starving user and kernel threads, bh_worker()
enforces execution limits (i.e., BH_WORKER_JIFFIES and BH_WORKER_RESTARTS).
When keep_working() is still true but either the time slice or restart
count is exhausted, bh_worker() yields execution and re-raises the
softirq via kick_bh_pool().
Currently, there is no observability into when a BH worker hits these
limits and is forced to yield.
Add the workqueue_bh_budget_yield tracepoint, emitted when bh_worker() exits
the processing loop with pending work items remaining. It records, the
worker pool ID, pool CPU, number of loop restarts consumed, a boolean flag
indicating whether the yield was due to a time slice timeout, and a boolean
flag indicating whether this is a high-priority BH pool.

When a worker pool fails to create a new worker thread (e.g., typically
under severe memory pressure where memory reclaim paths depend on pending
work items), send_mayday() signals distress to the workqueue's rescuer
thread. The rescuer then takes over processing the pending work items via
assign_rescuer_work().
While pwq->stats[PWQ_STAT_MAYDAY] and pwq->stats[PWQ_STAT_RESCUED] track
these occurrences cumulatively, there is currently no event-driven
mechanism to observe exactly when mayday distress occurs or which work
items require rescue.
Add two new tracepoints namely workqueue_mayday and workqueue_rescued to
make distress and rescuer execution easily observable (e.g., via Ftrace
or eBPF).

When a concurrency-managed per-CPU work item runs continuously without
sleeping for longer than wq_cpu_intensive_thresh_us, wq_worker_tick() marks
the worker as WORKER_CPU_INTENSIVE and kicks it out of concurrency
management so that pending work items on the pool are not starved.
While CONFIG_WQ_CPU_INTENSIVE_REPORT logs rate-limited warnings and
pwq->stats[PWQ_STAT_CPU_INTENSIVE] maintains a cumulative counter, there is
currently no tracepoint emitted at the moment of this transition.
Therefore, add the workqueue_cpu_intensive tracepoint, recording the
work_struct pointer and callback function pointer, workqueue name,
executing CPU, and the runtime duration consumed in microseconds.
This enables eBPF profilers, bpftrace, and Ftrace to immediately detect and
attribute CPU-hogging work items in real time.

Currently, trace_cachefiles_coherency() is being passed a pointer to a
__be64 lain over the coherency data in struct cachefiles_xattr so that it
can display the first 8 bytes. However, the data is of variable length and
could even be 0 bytes. This could lead to a UAF or KASAN warning.
Fix this by making sure the buffer has room for at least 8 bytes and that
those 8 bytes are pre-cleared.
Further, those bytes are not 8-byte aligned, so fix the tracepoint to
extract the data as four 2-byte words (they are 2-byte aligned) and
reassemble the __be64. The compiler will convert this into a single 8-byte
load where the CPU supports it.

For really big read RPC ops that span multiple folios, netfslib allows the
filesystem to give progress notifications to wake up the collector thread
to do a collection of folios that have now been fetched, even if the RPC is
still ongoing, thereby allowing the application to make progress.
This works by taking the current rreq->cleaned_to value (which indicates
which folios have been unlocked) and adding the stashed size of the next
folio to it. cleaned_to, however, is subject to 64-bit tearing on a 32-bit
arch.
Fix this by stashing the next progress notification point as a size_t
(which won't tear) to be added to rreq->start (which won't change), with
the collector thread calculating that from cleaned_to plus the next folio
size.
Further, however, if the folios are small, the collector thread gets
constantly woken up - which has a negative performance impact on the
system.
Fix that too by setting a minimum trigger of 256KiB or the size of the
folio at the front of the queue, whichever is larger. Note that this has
an issue that different subreqs have different need-to-be-cached
properties; this is solved by a preceding patch that marks the property on
the folios whilst issuing subreqs rather than when collecting them.
Also, make sure rreq->cleaned_to is initialised up front, along with
rreq->collected_to and stream->collected_to.

Mark folios with NETFS_FOLIO_COPY_TO_CACHE whilst issuing subreqs rather than
when collecting them. This means that the collector thread doesn't have to
try and keep track of which subreqs contribute to which folios - and thus
which folios will need to be copied to the cache because at least one byte
wasn't in the cache. Instead, this is marked on the folios up front and the
collector need only consider the folios.
For PG_private_2-using filesystems, PG_private_2 is set instead of
NETFS_FOLIO_COPY_TO_CACHE, but otherwise it works the same.
The NETFS_RREQ_COPY_TO_CACHE is replaced with NETFS_RREQ_CANCEL_CACHING, which
is now set if caching fails somewhere, thereby causing the collection thread
to cancel the copy-to-cache marks on the remaining folios.

There are some synchronisation issues that derive from the app thread
adding more folios to the rolling buffer whilst the collector thread is
looking at them or trying to clear them, such as determining the setting of
front_folio_order when the next folio hasn't been added yet,
The reason for the rolling buffer approach is that loading the buffer
upfront and then dropping all the refs just acquired is quite a slow
operation, and loading progressively allows some of the cost to be deferred
until after at least some of the I/O is started.
Instead, a better way is to load all the folios into the rolling buffer
upfront - and then drop the refs later, once the I/O is in progress. (Even
better would be for the refs not to be there at all.)
Fix this by changing the rolling buffer loader to load all the folios
selected by the VM for readahead upfront into the folio queue. The folio
queue is allocated a batch worth at a time as we don't know how many folios
are involved (the readahead_control struct, alas, has a page count, not a
folio count).
The folio refs acquired from readahead are then dropped in bulk once the
first subrequest is dispatched as it's quite a slow operation. The
collector waits for NETFS_RREQ_NEED_PUT_RA_REFS to be cleared so that it
doesn't unlock folios before the xarray has been scanned for them.
This simplifies the buffer handling later and isn't noticeably slower as
the xarray doesn't need to be modified and the folios are all already
pre-locked.

Pull f2fs updates from Jaegeuk Kim:
"In this round, key enhancements focus on reducing inode management
memory overhead, introducing resizable tail sections with unified
pinned allocation, and boosting I/O throughput via parallel
multi-device flushes and asynchronous f2fs_write_end_io() execution.
We also add dynamic device alias reservations to allow on-the-fly
space donation from user partitions.
Alongside these features, critical bug fixes resolve folio race
conditions, lingering dirty flags, dentry and block counter leaks, and
potential deadloops in f2fs_fsync_node_pages(). Additional stability
patches address error-path handling across symlink, sync, and
rename/unlink operations, prevent pinned file fragmentation, and
correct segment migration and free section accounting in
free_segment_range.
Enhancements:
- reduce memory footprint of ino management
- support dynamic reserve/release for device aliasing
- issue multi-device flushes in parallel
- add a way to run f2fs_write_end_io() asynchronously
- support resizable tail section and unify pinned allocation
Bug fixes:
- fix to pass folio->index to f2fs_sanity_check_node_footer()
- fix folio_nr_pages() race after put in large folio invalidate
- fix to clear dirty flag on folio in error path
- accurately adjust free_sections during free_segment_range
- fix to avoid potential deadloop in f2fs_fsync_node_pages()
- fix the error path in symlink, device alias in rename/unlink,
f2fs_sync_fs
- fix to migrate all curseg types during free_segment_range
- fix to avoid pinfile fragment on fragment:{block, segment} mode
- fix valid block count leak on data block allocation failure
- fix dentry folio leak in find_in_level
- reject overlapping move range after len expansion
- fix some bugs related to file pinning, GC functions, i_size
And, the series includes a number of minor bug fixes"

silent data corruption
- "mm/damon: refactor damon_{start,stop,commit}() for simple error
handling" (SJ Park)
Refactor the DAMON core API functions to guarantee that all contexts
are fully stopped when damon_start(), damon_stop(), or damon_commit()
fail, eliminating the need for complex and error-prone caller-side
cleanup code
- "Keep tail page private zero at free and folio split" (Zi Yan)
Add checks to ensure tail_page->private is zero when freeing compound
or high-order pages and when promoting tail pages during large folio
splits. By validating these fields at free and split time, it allows
the removal of redundant private field clearing inside
prep_compound_tail()
- "mm: drop redundant lru_add_drain in anon folio reuse paths" (Barry
Song)
Eliminate redundant lru_add_drain() calls in
wp_can_reuse_anon_folio() and do_swap_page() to reduce LRU lock

By validating folio refcounts against the LRU cache before draining
and removing unnecessary drains in the swap path, it achieves up to a
30.5% reduction in drain calls during heavy swap workloads
- "mm: clean up folio LRU and swap declarations" (Jianyue Wu)

- "mm/damon: update probe hits for runtime parameter commits" (SJ Park)
Ensure that DAMON's probe_hits attribute counter is properly updated
when monitoring intervals are changed at runtime, matching the
behavior of nr_accesses. To achieve this, it refactors and renames
existing helper functions for shared use, applies the updates to
probe_hits, and handles edge cases in damon_probe_hits_mvsum() to
maintain measurement accuracy.
- "KSM: performance optimizations for rmap_walk_ksm" (xu xin)
Resolve a severe KSM reverse-mapping performance bottleneck where
thousands of split VMAs sharing a single anon_vma cause extended lock
contention.
By adding an interval-filtering check during the rmap walk, it
reduces worst-case anon_vma lock hold times from over 500ms down to
under 2ms, preventing application freezes and latency spikes under
memory pressure.
- "mm: split a couple of headers from internal.h" (Mike Rapoport)
Split declarations related to mm_init, memblock, vmalloc and sparse
into new headers
- "KSM: use linear_page_index in collect_procs_ksm()" (xu xin)
Apply the interval tree optimization from rmap_walk_ksm() to
collect_procs_ksm() to avoid iterating over non-matching VMAs during
KSM memory error handling.
It hoists loop-invariant address initialization and restricts the
anon_vma_interval_tree_foreach walk to a targeted page offset range,
reducing redundant checks and improving lookup efficiency.
- "selftests/mm: avoid false failures in hugetlb and KSM tests" (Sayali
Patil)
Fix issues in the hugetlb and KSM MM selftest categories that can
report failures when the prerequisites for the tests are not
satisfied
- "mm/damon: introduce data attributes only monitoring" (SJ Park)
Introduce attribute-weighted region management in DAMON, allowing
users to prioritize specific data attributes (such as page sizes or
cgroups) over or instead of access monitoring.
By assigning weights to attribute probes, DAMON can completely
disable access tracking and adjust monitoring regions based on
weighted probe-hit counters to optimize monitoring quality for
attribute-focused workloads.
- "mm/hmm: Add mmap lock-drop support for userfaultfd-backed mappings"
(Stanislav Kinsburskii)
Extend hmm_range_fault() to support userfaultfd-backed regions by
allowing the mmap lock to be dropped during fault handling via a new
hmm_range_fault_locked() helper.
By accepting a locked pointer and signaling retry status when lock
release occurs, it enables page fault resolution in userfaultfd
regions while preserving backward compatibility for existing callers.
- "mm: make VMA page offset handling more consistent" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
Clean up and standardize how vma->vm_pgoff is accessed and
manipulated across file-backed and anonymous mappings in the kernel
It introduces dedicated helper functions such as vma_start_pgoff(),
vma_end_pgoff(), vma_set_pgoff() and linear_page_delta() while
renaming rmap interval tree helpers to better reflect their
functionality.
These changes establish a cleaner foundation for future work that
will unify virtual page offset indexing for all anonymous and CoW'd
folios.
- "mm: handle device-private PMDs in walk callbacks" (Usama Arif)
Address kernel panics and state corruption caused by MM walk
callbacks reaching non-present device-private PMD swap entries
created during HMM migrations
It ensures that functions which acquire pmd_trans_huge_lock()
properly recognize device-private PMDs instead of assuming a present
THP or a standard migration entry.
- "mm/rmap: Refactor try_to_unmap_one" (Dev Jain)
Refactor try_to_unmap_one by modularizing Hugetlb,
anonymous-lazyfree, and anonymous-swapbacked logic into dedicated
functions, laying the structural groundwork for batched anonymous
large folio unmapping.
- "Docs/ABI/damon: sysfs ABI document fixes and additions" (Song Hu)
Fix typos and fills in missing entries in the DAMON sysfs ABI
document
- "dax/kmem: atomic whole-device hotplug via sysfs" (Gregory Price)

infrastructure to prevent userland races when offlining and removing
entire memory regions
By adding an unplugged state alongside standard online modes, it
enables whole-device atomic hotplug control while preserving backward
compatibility.
- "mm: convert more vm_flags_t users to vma_flags_t" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
Continue transitioning the kernel from the deprecated vm_flags_t type
to vma_flags_t across core memory management infrastructure.
It replaces legacy type usage in core functions such as do_mmap(),
unmapped area allocation, mm->def_vma_flags, and VMA operations like
mlock, mprotect, and mremap.
- "Two small patches to clean up mm/mm_slot.h" (xu xin)
Refactor mm_slot.h by introducing mm_slot_remove() to unify duplicate
slot deletion sequences in khugepaged and KSM. It also adds code
documentation explaining why mm_slot_lookup and mm_slot_insert must
remain as preprocessor macros rather than static inline functions.
- "mm/damon/core: hide core-private struct fields" (SJ Park)
Clean up DAMON core structures by consistently marking internal-only
fields with private: comment tags to prevent improper direct access
from outer layers.
It enforces encapsulation across core structures including
damon_region, damon_target, and damon_ctx and updates DAMON_SYSFS to
interact through approved access APIs instead of exposing raw struct
members.
- "mm/damon: unurgent fixes for infinite loop, NULL de-ref and races"
(SJ Park)
Address potential infinite loops, NULL dereferences, and race
conditions identified in DAMON
It fixes an infinite loop triggered by extreme user configurations, a
NULL pointer dereference within unit tests and minor monitoring
accuracy degradation caused by subtle runtime races.
- "mm/page_alloc: fixes for free_pages_nolock() on RT/UP" (Brendan
Jackman)
Fix an NMI safety flaw in __free_frozen_pages() where freeing pages
on non-SMP or PREEMPT_RT kernels can bypass can_spin_trylock() checks
via non-PCP or isolated migration paths.
It also resolves potential kernel crashes and privilege escalation
risks triggered when BPF tracing runs in NMI context alongside memory
hotplug or large allocation frees.
- "mm/page_alloc: couple of followups for recent cleanups" (Brendan
Jackman)
Clean up and update page allocator nomenclature, documentation, and
debug assertions.
It aligns internal FPI_ flags with the public "nolock" naming
convention, removes outdated internal implementation details from
high-level page allocator comments, and eliminates obsolete
VM_BUG_ON() assertions in allocation paths.
- "mm/mseal: further cleanups" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
Refactor and simplify the mseal implementation by clarifying API
boundaries and removing unnecessary code complexity.
It replaces generic do_mseal() usage outside the syscall with a
dedicated mseal_mmap_page_zero() helper for MMAP_PAGE_ZERO,
eliminates mm_struct parameters to enforce that sealing applies only
to current->mm, and streamlines overall logic and comments with no
functional changes intended.
- "mm/vmscan: fix swappiness=max and clean up per-node proactive
reclaim" (Ridong Chen)
Resolve reclaim behavior bugs and clean up function parameters across
memory reclaim paths
It fixes swappiness=max in both standard reclaim and MGLRU so
unswappable anonymous memory no longer falls back to evicting page
cache, ensures reclaim_store() returns accurate error codes instead
of collapsing all failures into -EAGAIN, and removes the obsolete
gfp_mask parameter from __node_reclaim().
- "mm: mincore: misc cleanups" (Kefeng Wang)
Clean up and simplifies the mincore code. Most importantly, it
removes the historical special behavior that always reports VM_PFNMAP
pages as non-resident.
- "mm/huge_memory: drop dead split helper variants" (Kiryl Shutsemau)
Two trivial cleanups in the folio split API
- "mm/damon: fix uninitialized DAMOS field and kunit exec expectation
bugs" (SJ Park)
Resolve minor operational and testing bugs in DAMON identified by
Sashiko. It initializes the damos->last_applied field to prevent
occasional efficiency degradation and fixes invalid memory accesses
in DAMON KUnit tests during test failure handling.
- "cleanup for stable_page_flags()" (Jinjiang Tu)
Clean up and refactor stable_page_flags() used by /proc/kpageflags
without altering functionality.
It uses BIT_ULL() to prevent shift-overflow warnings on 64-bit flag
bits, converts folio-specific flag checks to standard folio_test_*()
helpers, and removes redundant CONFIG_PAGE_IDLE_FLAG handling.
- "Batch unmap of uffd-wp file folios" (Dev Jain)
Extend batched folio unmapping support to file folios within
userfaultfd write-protect (uffd-wp) VMAs by adding batching
capabilities to pte_install_uffd_wp_if_needed().
This removes special-case restrictions on uffd-wp VMAs in
try_to_unmap_one(), significantly simplifying the function's control
flow and complexity.
- "mm/early_ioremap: clarify and clean up early_ioremap_reset()"
(Sang-Heon Jeon)
Clarify and clean up the architecture-specific usage of
__late_set_fixmap() and __late_clear_fixmap() after
early_ioremap_reset()
It adds explicit documentation regarding when early_ioremap_reset()
must be called and removes redundant macro definitions and reset
calls in the RISC-V and ARM64 architectures.
- "mm: fix reclaim storms in defrag_mode" (Johannes Weiner)
Address severe performance regressions, swap storms, and spurious
OOMs caused by vm.defrag_mode=1 under high memory pressure in Meta
production
It updates the page allocator slowpath so non-movable allocation
requests actively trigger direct reclaim and direct compaction at
pageblock_order scale, allowing them to claim whole pageblocks rather
than spinning unproductively.
- "zram: lockmap tweaks" (Sebastian Siewior)
Optimize and fix lockdep tracking for zram devices by consolidating
per-entry lockmaps and isolate lock classes across multiple instances
This reduces memory overhead by replacing per-entry lockdep_map
instances with a single map per struct zram, and assigns a dynamic
lock_class_key to each instance to prevent false deadlock reports
when different zram devices are backed by distinct filesystems.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kdave/linux
Pull btrfs updates from David Sterba:
"This is the summer edition of btrfs changes, smaller than usual. Yet,
there are performance improvements in various areas or for specific
workloads and some notable changes like removing space cache v1 code
or mount option reduction.
User visible changes:
- free space v1 disabled by default; the v2 (free space tree) is mkfs
default since 5.15, filesystems with v1 still work but could be
slightly slower due to lack of block group caching
- mount option 'rescue=usebackuproot' requires read-only mount, it's
too risky to allow writable mount
- remove standalone mount option 'usebackuproot', deprecated in 5.9
- preserve constraints of NODATASUM and NODATACOW when chattr and
mount options may change the attributes
- remove arbitrary limitation of 4KiB for page size when allowing
block sizes smaller than page
- print messages when pinned block groups affect swap activation
Performance improvements:
- use iomap bounce buffer for direct io instead of a fall back to
buffered io; past correctness vs speed trade-offs dropped
performance to ~50% of theoretical maximum, now it's ~95%,
effectively doubled
- replace xarray with local LRU list for tracking inhibited
extent buffers, restored performance to pre-inhibition state
(relatively ~3x)
- remove unnecessary 1 jiffy delay in "non-SSD" mode with multiple
logging tasks, decrease latency, throughput increased ~5x on sample
workload
- skip hole detection during full fsync for files without holes
and lots of extents, reduce run time ~5x on sample workload
(microsecond ranges)
- reduce locking around extent readahead so it does not slow down
other tasks using an overlapping range
- enhance extent buffer allocation modes to allow NOWAIT semantics
in some cases
Notable fixes:
- write-protect folios during writeback, prevent concurrent mmap
and compress/checksumming/etc undesired interactions
- in zoned mode, handle transient overcommit full instead of going
read-only
- fix possible deadlock between defragmentation and delayed
allocation reservations
- handle remaining iputs at umount time
- fix lockdep warning between device scan locking and log mutex
- add workaround for degenerate RAID56 device count modes (2 and 3)
not supported by the parity calculation library
- restore check that subvolume is not read-only when changing ACLs
- retry reading verity data colliding with up-to-date status changes
Core:
- simplify raid56 stripe handling by using contiguous virtual
allocations
- in zoned mode, fix various metadata write issues in writeback or
unmount
- space reservation fixes
- remove unused data structure members
- more auto-freeing conversions
- error pointer values are printed using %pe format"

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/sched_ext
Pull sched_ext updates from Tejun Heo:
"Most of this cycle completes the enqueue-path support for hierarchical
sub-scheduling, which makes sub-scheduler support feature complete: a
root BPF scheduler can now hand a cgroup subtree over to a nested
sub-scheduler together with revocable CPU grants, and the
sub-scheduler owns all scheduling decisions for its tasks on those
CPUs.
Development volume was high and a number of changes plugging holes in
the new support landed late in the cycle. Also included are core
scheduling fixes that were completed too late for the v7.2 release and
are routed through this pull request.
Sub-scheduler CPU delegation:
- Parent schedulers now grant and revoke per-CPU capabilities
(enqueueing, preemption, CPU frequency control) on their children,
enforced on every path a scheduler can reach a CPU through.
Previously only dispatching could be delegated; this lets
sub-schedulers fully schedule their CPUs.
- Rescue execution: a task whose scheduler doesn't have access to the
CPUs the task needs to run on starved until the watchdog ejected
the whole scheduler. The kernel now runs such tasks directly on a
small bandwidth budget, turning a scheduler-killing failure into
bounded degradation.
- Cgroup integration: tasks migrating across a sub-scheduler boundary
weren't re-homed to the new owner, causing wrong-scheduler
scheduling and a use-after-free. Sub-schedulers now take over their
cgroup subtree and receive its cgroup callbacks.
- Arena objects now cross the kernel/BPF boundary as typed pointer
arguments, translated transparently by the BPF tree's new arena
argument support, replacing untyped arguments with manual
translation.
- scx_qmap now demonstrates full hierarchical sub-scheduling.
Other fixes and updates:
- Robustness improvements: the abort path is now NMI-safe, fixing
deadlocks when errors are raised from NMI context and making
hardlockup recovery direct. Reenqueue loops that could monopolize a
CPU ahead of the watchdog now eject the offending scheduler, and
stalls are blamed on the scheduler actually responsible.
- Hardening: BPF-writable arena memory is validated before kernel
use, and task slice and vtime writes got explicit synchronization
rules, closing corruption vectors open to buggy or malicious
schedulers.
- Core scheduling: sched_ext dispatching can drop the rq lock inside
the core-wide pick, which let interleaving selections corrupt each
other's state and hard-hang the machine. The selection now restarts
when the lock was released. The task ordering callback was also
invoked with its arguments swapped, and the default ordering is
updated to work across sub-scheduler boundaries. The fixes are
marked for stable.
- Other fixes headed for stable: a task init leak on fork failure
during enable, tooling compat macros that silently failed to detect
newer kernels, and a crash on reenqueueing against a destroyed
dispatch queue.
- Tooling: scx_pair moves off deprecated callbacks, and the
deprecated scx_bpf_cpu_rq() kfunc is removed"

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next
Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
"One of the 'small improvements all over the place' releases for us.
It's hard to draw any direct comparisons because summer vacations
disrupted our patch processing (and presumably - generation) quite a
bit.
Quick and dirty count suggests we (Paolo and I) merged a very similar
number of net (632) and net-next (648) patches. This is not telling
the full story either because 1/3 to 1/2 of the net-next patches also
*seem* like AI-driven low priority fixes, cleanups and clarifications.
We are completely overwhelmed, of course. The glimmer of hope is that
we secured sufficient LLM budget and access (thank you Meta!) to run
reviews with multiple frontier models on each patch. This eliminates
some hallucinations. That said, in terms of review, the LLMs can only
do so much.
The sad truth is that our APIs (especially for rare events like PCIe
errors, timeouts etc) have always been racy, and now LLMs don't let us
ignore that. I expect our direction for the next release will be to
tweak the reviews a little bit more, but start shifting focus to
letting the LLMs take care of the busy work - managing patchwork,
automating common process complaints, editing commit messages, and
maybe applying patches which already got "reviewed-by" tags from
people we trust...
Core & protocols:
- A few steps lowering rtnl_lock dependence:
