Currently, the LoongArch BPF JIT emits numerous redundant zero and sign
extensions across 32-bit operations, bloating the final JIT image size
and also leading to runtime overhead, particularly in the division and
modulo operations. Thus, it is necessary to optimize 32-bit operations
by emitting LoongArch native 32-bit word instructions.
For general ALU32 operations, utilize native 32-bit word instructions
for core calculations. Given that the BPF spec requires the upper 32
bits of the destination register to be zero-extended upon completion,
use a unified 'bstrpickd' instruction to clear the upper 32 bits at the
common exit of build_insn(), while immediate loads are optimized via
(u32) casting to bypass the trailing extension.
According to the LoongArch Reference Manual, native 32-bit division
and modulo instructions (DIV.W[U] and MOD.W[U]) require the upper 33
bits [63:31] of both input operands to be all 0s or all 1s (0x0 or
0x1ffffffff), that is to say, they need to be properly sign-extended
by the software on CPU cores without the DIV32 feature. Otherwise, the
32-bit division and modulo instructions will trigger undefined hardware
behaviors and return unexpected values.
To ensure both performance and hardware compatibility, leverage the
newly introduced 'cpu_has_div32' helper:
(1) on newer CPUs with DIV32, emit native 32-bit div/mod instructions
directly for optimal performance;
(2) on older CPUs without DIV32, sign-extend the destination register
in place and the source register into a temporary register via 'addw'
before executing the native 32-bit div/mod instructions. Note that the
JIT compiler must never alter the state of the src register because it
remains read-only for the duration of the instruction.
For JMP32 conditional branches, the source operands may originate from
64-bit contexts where the upper 32 bits contain arbitrary data, so use
6 independent case structures to prevent 64-bit comparison inversions.
Furthermore, use 'bstrpickd' to mask out upper bits for unsigned JMP32,
and 'addw' with GPR_ZERO to re-align sign bits for signed JMP32.
With this patch, the emit_{zext, sext}_32() and is_signed_bpf_cond()
helpers are completely wiped out from the header and source files,
delivering a native execution stream with a reduced JIT image size,
especially for division and mod operations.
All of the testcases of test_bpf passed on Loongson-3A6000 (with DIV32)
and Loongson-3A5000 (without DIV32), here are the test results:
$ sudo modprobe test_bpf
$ dmesg -t | grep Summary
test_bpf: Summary: 1061 PASSED, 0 FAILED, [1049/1049 JIT'ed]
test_bpf: test_tail_calls: Summary: 10 PASSED, 0 FAILED, [10/10 JIT'ed]
test_bpf: test_skb_segment: Summary: 2 PASSED, 0 FAILED
For the BPF selftests test_verifier and test_progs, there are no any
regressions.

In breakpoint_handler() and watchpoint_handler(), the code disables the
hardware slot by executing update_bp_registers(regs, 0, ...). This design
forces the active hardware breakpoint configuration to be wiped out upon
its first hit, turning standard perf hardware breakpoints into "one-shot"
events.
Furthermore, while the ptrace single-step path in do_watch() executes a
hardware single-step skip mechanism to advance the PC, the standard perf
path lacks any mechanism to bypass the original triggering instruction.
To maintain the long-term persistence of hardware breakpoints for perf
usage, eliminate the disruptive calls to update_bp_registers() within
the handler loops to keep the breakpoint configuration enabled.
Concurrently, execute a single, unified register write outside the loop
to atomize the state transition and explicitly enforce the hardware skip
mechanism once per exception return, ensuring the processor safely steps
forward without lockups.
Meanwhile, in order to prevent status contamination during single-core
context switches or cross-core thread migrations, the hardware register
skip state of the previous thread is saved first. Then, the skip state
is restored and its software skip flag is also cleared only if the next
thread has the skip flag; otherwise, 0 is written to clear the FWPS and
MWPS registers, which explicitly clears the skip bit according to the
architectural specification.
Additionally, explicitly clear hbp_break_skip and hbp_watch_skip inside
ptrace_hw_copy_thread() which is called by copy_thread() during the task
creation. This guarantees that a newly cloned child task starts with a
clean slate.
Here is a user-space reproducer to demonstrate the issue.
(1) Test program (test_perf_continuous.c):
#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/syscall.h>
#include <sys/ioctl.h>
#include <linux/perf_event.h>
#include <linux/hw_breakpoint.h>
static int var = 0;
int main(void)

.bp_type = HW_BREAKPOINT_W,
.bp_addr = (unsigned long)&var,
.bp_len = HW_BREAKPOINT_LEN_1,
.exclude_kernel = 1,
};
int fd = syscall(__NR_perf_event_open, &attr, 0, -1, -1, 0);

read(fd, &count, sizeof(size_t));
printf("Watchpoint counts: expected = 3, actual = %zu\n", count);
close(fd);
return 0;
}
(2) Test steps:
$ gcc test_perf_continuous.c -o test_perf_continuous
$ ./test_perf_continuous
(3) Test results:

In do_watch(), the kernel unconditionally forces a SIGTRAP signal at the
end of the handler via force_sig(SIGTRAP). This is essential for ptrace
operations, but it severely disrupts standard perf_event usage.
Under normal perf usage, it is not necessary to force a SIGTRAP signal
on every hit. Forcing it unnecessarily aborts the target process if no
user-space signal handler is registered, which violates performance
monitoring behaviors and injects context switch overheads.
However, a conditional check using only 'current->ptrace' would block
legitimate user-requested signals when a perf_event is configured with
'attr.sigtrap = 1' for asynchronous user-space tracking.
Fix this by refactoring breakpoint_handler() and watchpoint_handler()
to return a boolean status indicating whether any triggered breakpoint
explicitly requires a signal notification. Update do_watch() to enforce
the SIGTRAP signal only when the process is actively being debugged via
ptrace, or when the underlying perf_event infrastructure specifically
demands it via 'attr.sigtrap'.

According to the LoongArch Reference Manual, the single-step 'Skip' bit
resides in the instruction breakpoint status register (CSR.FWPS), rather
than the configuration register (CSR.FWPC).
Furthermore, the kernel code comments also explicitly document it as
"CSR.FWPS.Skip", yet the macro was erroneously defined as CSR_FWPC_SKIP
and used as such in traps.c and hw_breakpoint.c. This mismatch creates
architectural naming confusion.
Fix this by renaming the macro from CSR_FWPC_SKIP to CSR_FWPS_SKIP to
precisely match the manual and comments. Also, update all call sites to
align with the rectified definition.

When running BPF selftest "test_progs -t timer_lockup" on a LoongArch
machine, the kernel intermittently experiences soft lockups and panics
in hrtimer_cancel().
The root cause is that the bpf_timer_cancel() implementation relies on
smp_mb__after_atomic() to provide a full data barrier after a relaxed
atomic_inc() to ensure the proper store-load ordering before performing
lockless dependency checks on weakly-ordered architectures, such as on
LoongArch, but the current definition of smp_mb__after_atomic() is just
a plain compiler barrier.
This allows a subsequent read to bypass the prior write due to store-
load reordering, enabling concurrent CPUs to simultaneously bypass the
software deadlock detection, enter hrtimer_cancel(), and then trigger a
severe ABBA deadlock in the hrtimer core.
Moreover, there are hundreds of smp_mb__after_atomic() call sites across
the core kernel (kernel/, drivers/, mm/, net/, fs/) that currently lack
necessary full data barriers on LoongArch, which have potential risks.
To comply with the LKMM specification, fix this by removing the arch-
specific definition of __smp_mb__after_atomic(), so that this macro can
automatically fall back to the generic definition in asm-generic that
maps to __smp_mb() and emits the required hardware DBAR instruction.
While at it, do the same thing for __smp_mb__before_atomic().
With this patch the BPF timer_lockup selftest was stressed for millions
consecutive loops on a physical LoongArch machine, without encountering
any further lockups.

The LoongArch Architecture Manual defines a hardware capability bit
CPUCFG2_DIV32 (bit 26 of CPUCFG 0x2). When this bit is set to 1, it
indicates that on 64-bit machines, the division and mod instructions
(DIV.W[U] and MOD.W[U]) will ignore the upper 32 bits of the input
registers and only compute based on the lower 32 bits.
On certain CPU cores without this feature, these 32-bit instructions
require both input operands to be properly sign-extended. Otherwise,
the hardware execution results can be randomly meaningless values.
Add the CPU_FEATURE_DIV32 definition, detect and export this hardware
capability via elf_hwcap and cpu_has_div32 (in cpuinfo). This provides
the infrastructure for subsystems like BPF JIT to safely choose either
native 32-bit instructions or fallback instruction sequences based on
the actual CPU hardware capabilities.

Currently, neither /proc/cpuinfo nor hwcap exposes the existence of the
LAMCAS extension, which is part of LA64v1.1. For example, on a Loongson
3B6000, /proc/cpuinfo is as follows:
processor : 23
package : 0
core : 11
global_id : 31
CPU Family : Loongson-64bit
Model Name : Loongson-3B6000
PRID : LA664 (0014d011)
CPU Revision : 0x11
FPU Revision : 0x01
CPU MHz : 2200.00
BogoMIPS : 4400.00
TLB Entries : 2112
Address Sizes : 48 bits physical, 48 bits virtual
ISA : loongarch32r loongarch32s loongarch64
Features : cpucfg lam lam_bh scq ual fpu lsx lasx
crc32 complex crypto lspw lvz lbt_x86 lbt_arm lbt_mips
Hardware Watchpoint : yes, iwatch count: 8, dwatch count: 4
... while the CPUCFG 2 instruction reads "0x7e7ccfcf", whose bit28 is 1,
indicating the actual presence of LAMCAS.
This hinders user-space inspection and detection of LAMCAS. For example,
in SpiderMonkey, we need to switch to larchintrin.h and then use the raw
__cpucfg() to manually perform the bit extraction. Also, a curious user
reading /proc/cpuinfo might be puzzled by the lack of display of LAMCAS.
Expose the existence of LAMCAS via cpuinfo and hwcap. The definition
point of the new LOONGARCH_CPU_LAMCAS flag is chosen so as to match the
practices in commit 1dd3e8a8eeb4059fb34b ("LoongArch: Define instruction
formats for AM{SWAP/ADD}.{B/H} and DBAR").
After this patch, /proc/cpuinfo looks like the following:
processor : 23
package : 0

Pull KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"ARM:
- pKVM state isolation: years after pKVM started being enabled
upstream, we finally get the basics in the form of state isolation.
The vcpu state is now off-limit for the host for protected VMs
- pKVM also grows a hypervisor-private memory allocator, allowing it
to deal with sub-page allocation, much like everywhere else
- pKVM also lands a trace_printk() equivalent, which hopefully will
make debugging a bit easier
- First shot at annotating portions of the KVM/arm64 code to be
extracted and built on s390. The real fun is yet to come
- Allow pre-faulting of stage-2 canonical mappings from userspace,
joining x86 and s390 in implementing this feature
- Add a reverse mapping infrastructure for shadow stage-2,
significantly improving performance when MMU notifiers kick in, and
avoiding full unmap of all shadow tables for this VM
- Next step of GICv5 enablement, adding support for the IRS block,
and providing both SPI and LPI support. This is the first point
where KVM/arm64 can support an SMP GICv5 guest
- As a preliminary to eventually enabling CCA, add a bunch of
infrastructure to KVM/arm64, splitting some of the basic operations
into individual backends (normal VM, normal pKVM VM, protected pKVM
VM). This allows CCA to later slot in without polluting the rest of
KVM with its firmware-driven nonsense
- Make ID registers immutable from the point where a vcpu is able to
run, even if it fails to run. This prevents KVM from sampling
untrusted values
- Restore some type checking to the EL2 object. KVM/arm64 originally
had some strong type checking between the kernel and the EL2
object, but lost it along the way when the private hypercall
interface was (somewhat pointlessly) converted to SMCCC. Type
checking is back, syscall style, and with added sparse goodies
- Expand the FFA support to FFA_NOTIFICATION_*, and add some
sanitisation of the protocol that pKVM relays to the "trusted"
runtime
- Make GICv3 RD assignment more robust to userspace nonsense
- Convert the remaining MMU fault handler backends to
kvm_s2_fault_vma_info and co., fixing a number of bugs in the
process
- Fix the SError/SEA selftests to be both more robust and less
braindead
- Fix a smattering of documentation bugs, some of them as a result of
our AI friends spitting out credible assertions based on
non-existing symbols
- The usual collection of low impact bug fixes (SMCCC, timers, PMU)
Loongarch:
- Add separate vmid support
- Simplify MSI interrupt injection
- Add crash hypercall support
- Allow to set pv_feature until vCPU run
- Enable HW page table walk automatically in selftests
s390:
- rework page allocation for secure guest variable storage
- Selftests and documentation improvements
- Replace get_zeroed_page with kzalloc
- Fix corner cases of floating interrupt injection
- Initial arm64 on s390 support
x86:
- Clean up the handling of vcpu->arch.xen.long_mode to be consistent
and correctly handle 32-bit/64-bit alignment, and various other bug
fixes have accumulated over the months since v1
- Grab KVM's SRCU "lock" in kvm_zap_gfn_range() to fix a recurring
bug where callers fail to do so
- Fix a variety of issues in the pre-fault code that are mostly
benign in the current code base, but will show up in big ways
if/when the pre-faulting logic is used to implementing
prefetch-on-fault for the TDP MMU
- For PREEMPT_RT=y kernels, drop the rmaps' individual bit-spinlock
and just walk the rmaps' with mmu_lock taken. On the write side
(which always uses mmu_lock), the bit-spinlock was assuming that
preemption was disabled, but that is *not* true when rwlocks become
sleepable
- Prepare a memory_fault exit (paired with -EFAULT) when KVM hits an
error PFN, e.g. so that userspace can resolve transient issues
instead of killing the guest. Convert a variety of WARN()+EFAULT
paths into KVM_BUG_ON()+EIO so that KVM can hard commit to filling
memory_fault on -EFAULTs that occur in the page fault path
- Fix a NX hugepage un-accounting bug where KVM would always uncharge
the shadow MMU, even when handling TDP MMU pages
- Mask off the address space ID when checking for illegal usage of
kvm_set_internal_memslot() to prevent false negatives on the sanity
check
- Explicitly zero reserved flags when delivering a SynIC message to
avoid leaking a byte of stack information to the guest
- Rework TDX's handling of the canonical MMU root level to not rely
on userspace to fill CPUID correctly, as doing so lets userspace
trivially trigger a KVM_BUG_ON()
- Reject KVM_SET_NESTED_STATE if userspace "restores" L1 with
EFER.LMA=1 && EFER.LME=0, which confuses KVM into trying to
configure an 64-bit MMU without PAE
- Ignore EFER.LMA (clear it from KVM's cached save state) if
EFER.LME=0 when preparing L2 state, to fix another way to confuse
KVM's MMU (and because real hardware also ignores EFER.LMA)
- Improve KVM's sanity checks for a misconfigured MMU to (hopefully)
detect all of the ways KVM can botch EFER.LMA vs. CR4.PAE
- Remove the "full" out-param from kvm_x86_ops.flush_tlb_gva() as the
param is only used to avoid what effectively amounts to a single
memory write
- Fix a mostly-benign bug where KVM can write through a guest's
read-only mapping due to not checking the error code when
expediting emulated MMIO page faults
- Honor the guest's view of the "EFER.LMSLE must be zero" defeature
so that userspace can provide migration compatibility between Rome
and Milan+
- Pend a KVM_REQ_EVENT request when an exception is morphed into a
nested VM-Exit, otherwise KVM can fail to actually deliver the
nested VM-Exit, e.g. when injecting a page fault
- Add support for PML on SVM
- Add support for virtualizing Bus Lock Detect on SVM, and fix a
number of DR6 bugs and warts along the way
- Fix a variety of warts in KVM's handling of guest TSC, kvmclock,
and timekeeping in general, as a (big) first step towards
addressing several longstanding problems with the kvmclock
implementation. Most notably, fix a precision issue where
get_kvmclock_ns() computed the clock from the *host* TSC without
applying guest TSC scaling, causing systemic drift from the values
the guest computes from its own TSC
- Rip out KVM's shadow timekeeping structures, now that ktime
snapshots are powerful enough to replace it
- Misc fixes and cleanups
x86 (AMD):
- Fix a benign-in-practice bug where KVM unintentionally sets a
non-zero error code when delivering exceptions to SEV-ES+ guests
- Force a new ASID in both VMCBs on pCPU migration to fix a bug where
KVM can run a VMCB with a stale ASID due to the tracking being
per-CPU, not per-VMCB
- Return INVALID_INPUT to the guest instead of exiting to userspace
with -EIO if KVM can't access "guest request" buffer, i.e. try to
keep the guest alive if the guest or userspace goofs
x86 (Intel):
- Enable Notify VM-Exits (now called Instruction Timeout in the SDM)
and Bus Lock VM-Exits for TDX guests when they're enabled by
userspace (KVM forgot to wire up the TDX Module knobs)
- Move all common (between VMX and TDX) APIs/helpers to
common.h/main.c, and change all namespace prefixes from "vmx" to
"vt"
- Fix a thankfully benign bug (due to other areas of KVM being
hardened) where userspace can bypass INIT_MEM_REGION's address wrap
check by providing a nr_pages that will overflow a u64 when
converted to bytes, and fix an also- benign off-by-one bug in the
check (inclusive vs. exclusive)
- Set the vmcs.GUEST_ACTIVITY_STATE back to ACTIVE when userspace
sets KVM's mp_state to anything other than HALTED, e.g. so that a
vCPU doesn't get stuck in HLT if userspace emulates RESET
guest_memfd:
- Take the invalidate lock when unbinding a dying file to fix a race
with kvm_gmem_invalidate_end() that results in KVM leaving the MMU
invalidation count elevated. Not taking the lock in the first place
was pure misguided paranoid
- When binding a memslot, purge the bindings if storing the new
memslot fails, as Xarray's "store range" API can subtly fail
partway through
- Establish memslot<=>guest_memfd bindings *after* the memslot is
ready, as the memslot becomes reachable the instant the binding is
installed
- Don't grab a page refcount when reloading an SNP VMSA and stop
returning a "struct page" from guest_memfd's PFN lookup altogether,
to ensure that KVM doesn't hold any unnecessary refcounts (the
lifetime of the page is ensured by MMU notifiers and similar
hooks). Preventing unnecessary refcounts greatly simplifies
supporting in-place SHARED=>PRIVATE conversions
- Add support for in-place PRIVATE<=>SHARED conversion, i.e. allow a
single guest_memfd instance to be used for both PRIVATE and SHARED
variations of CoCo guests' memory (though not at the same time).
This eliminates the need to double allocate guest memory for TDX
and SNP, and is basically a hard requirement for pKVM, which relies
on being able to preserve memory contents on conversions
- Hack-a-fix a deadlock bug in ->error_remove_folio() by returning
-EBUSY if the filemap invalidate lock is contended. Punt on a
proper fix for the moment, as a proper fix likely involves
reworking truncate_error_folio()
- Add a pile of selftests for in-place conversions
- Misc guest_memfd cleanups
Generic:
- Move some configuration items to preprocessor symbols, to help with
arm-on-s390's need to compile the same code twice with different
values
- Allow KVM implementations to choose alternative device names, also
for s390's support of ARM virtualmachines
- Switch the KVM-VFIO interface and external consumers over to
standard file-based reference counting, eliminating all external
KVM symbol exports
Selftests:
- Rework KVM selftest's handling of memory regions all so that PPC
can force its page table allocations to be naturally aligned
- PPC support
- Fix emulation of VMPTRST and VMPTRLD when eVMCS is in-use to match
real Hyper-V's behavior
- Saturate L2's TSC frequency if stacking L1 and L2 scaling
multipliers exceeds what hardware supports, as attempting to run L2
with an illegal multiplier will either cause VM-Entry to fail (VMX)
or trigger a #GP when writing MSR_AMD64_TSC_RATIO (SVM). The #GP is
thankfully benign in the grand scheme as even "unsafe" WRMSRs have
exception fixup
- Rework KVM selftest's handling of memory regions so that PPC can
force its page table allocations to be naturally aligned
- Clean up selftest's VMX instruction helpers, and drop an absurd
number of completely useless return values, e.g. functions that
unconditionally return %true and then have every caller assert
success
- Add selftests support for Zhaoxin CPUs
- Overhaul the TSC scaling test to add a regression test for the
saturation behavior, and to increase its coverage in general
- Fix selftests usage various NUMA syscalls to account for an
undocumented, but known since 2007, off-by-one kernel bug. Add
helpers to try and avoid re-introducing the same flaws in the
future
- Automatically run xAPIC IPI migration test (between NUMA nodes)
when possible, as the entire point of the test is verify KVM's
handling of page migration of the APIC backing page

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- "selftests/mm: improve khugepaged coverage" (Kiryl Shutsemau):
Give khugepaged a proper workout. Extend the tests to all supported
mTHP orders, check exactly which windows collapsed, and make scan
completion deterministic. Race collapse against faults, pinning, fork
and remap; verify that the contents survive.
Add coverage for whole-page-table zaps and memory pressure too.
- "selftests/mm: separate GUP microbenchmarking from functional testing"
(Sarthak Sharma):
Untangle GUP benchmarking from correctness testing. Move the
benchmark into tools/mm, add a standalone harness-based GUP selftest,
and move shared helpers into tools/lib/mm. Give each tool one job
instead of mixing timing measurements with correctness checks.
Cover the mapping, pinning and batch-size combinations explicitly.
- "mm: Switch device DAX to section-based vmemmap optimization" (Muchun
Song):
Apply section-based vmemmap optimization to device DAX. Rework the
backing metadata layout to save memory while preserving the handling
of device memory hotplug and its different alignment and lifetime
requirements.
- "mm: Introduce section-based vmemmap optimization for HugeTLB"
(Muchun Song):
Cut the memory consumed by HugeTLB's struct page array with
section-based vmemmap optimization. Arrange the metadata so large
huge pages need fewer backing pages, while keeping initialization,
teardown and the various hugepage configurations straight.
- "mm/huge_memory: clean up and decouple the anon and file split
helpers" (Kairui Song):
Separate anonymous and file-backed folio splitting, which have rather
different locking and bookkeeping requirements. Move the work into
separate helpers, drop dead checks and tidy swap-cache handling. Fix
error paths, including one that could leave a folio frozen.
Keep the swap cache cases separate from file-cache splitting.
- "mm: Unconditional per-VMA locks and cleanups" (Dave Hansen):
Make per-VMA locking unconditional and clean up the old conditional
code around it. This removes configuration-dependent plumbing and
lets callers depend on one locking model rather than carrying both
cases along.
- "memcg: remove the v1 soft limit" (Shakeel Butt):
Remove the old cgroup v1 memory soft-limit machinery. This has long
since been superseded by the newer memory-control interfaces; hauling
around a separate reclaim scheme for it no longer buys us much.
- "read proc/pid/smaps_rollup under per-vma lock" (Suren Baghdasaryan):
Read /proc/PID/smaps_rollup using per-VMA locks where possible,
rather than holding mmap_lock across the entire walk. Retain the
contention fallback and add tearing tests. This considerably reduces
latency when another thread is busy changing its mappings.
- "mm/damon: introduce data access-as-a-data attribute" (SJ Park):
Teach DAMON to expose memory access observations as data attributes,
making them available to the probe and filtering machinery. Extend
the interfaces, documentation and tests so the new information can be
used rather than merely collected.
- "Remove PG_private by using page/folio->private checks instead" (Zi
Yan):
Get rid of PG_private and use the folio's private pointer to say
whether private data is attached. Convert the filesystem users,
including erofs, f2fs and md, and clean up the old accessors and
flags. There are a few special cases, notably swapcache and hugetlb,
which need explicit care.
- "mm: make userland page table freeing RCU-safe" (Lorenzo Stoakes):
Make freeing userspace page tables safe against RCU readers. Sort out
the page-table lifetime and locking rules so walkers cannot stumble
over freed tables while mappings are being torn down.
- "make unused huge shrinker memcg aware" (Qi Zheng):
Make shmem's unused-huge-folio shrinker aware of memory cgroups, so
reclaim can find those folios under the right memcg. Wire up the
per-memcg tracking and its lifetime rules, and give the shrinklist
its own lockdep class to avoid spurious dependency reports.
- "mm: Drop pxd_ERROR()" (Anshuman Khandual):
Remove the old pxd_ERROR() page-table checks and their
architecture-specific baggage. Simplify the common page-table
interfaces and callers now that these checks no longer serve a
useful purpose.
- "memcg: group struct fields by access pattern" (Shakeel Butt):
Rearrange memcg's hot and cold fields according to how they're
actually accessed. Keep frequently updated counters and their
neighboring state from fighting over cachelines and reduce needless
cacheline traffic.
- "mm/damon/core: fix the size charged for a filter-trimmed region"
(Donggeun Yoo):
Fix DAMOS quota accounting when a filter trims a monitoring region.
Charge only the part left after filtering, not the original region,
and add KUnit coverage. Previously the excluded memory could eat into
the quota and make schemes run more slowly than requested.
- "mm/damon: add kunit and selftests for probes and probe weights" (SJ
Park):
Add more tests for DAMON probes and their weights, including
validation and the results reported to userspace. This is mostly
about catching regressions in the newer probe infrastructure before
they become harder to diagnose.
- "mm: memcontrol: constify the read side of the read side of the memcg
API" (Tal Zussman):
Mark the read-only parts of the memcg interface const, from folio and
lruvec accessors to counters and swap helpers. Most of this is
mechanical, but it makes the contracts clearer and lets the compiler
catch accidental writes.
- "mm/damon/vaddr: support {prep,apply}_probes" (SJ Park):
Support the new prepare/apply probe operations in DAMON's
virtual-address backend. This brings vaddr monitoring into line with
the probe infrastructure and makes the added probe types useful there
too.
- "mm/mglru: clean up folio counters and flag usage" (Kairui Song):
Simplify MGLRU's folio counters and flag handling. Remove redundant
accounting paths and make the state transitions easier to follow
without changing the intended reclaim policy.
- "arch, mm/execmem: resolve confusion about set_direct_map_valid_noflush()"
(Mike Rapoport (Microsoft)):
Clarify and straighten out the set_direct_map_valid_noflush()
interface across architectures and execmem. Make the requested
mapping changes and the callers' expectations agree, rather than
relying on subtly different architecture behavior.
- "mm: zswap: free cold writeback folios promptly" (Alexandre Ghiti):
Free zswap writeback folios as soon as their disk write completes.
They are cold temporary buffers, so putting them on the LRU only
makes reclaim rediscover them later. Extend swap-cache dropbehind and
let zswap keep these folios off the LRU altogether.
- "mm: gup: cleanup gup_fast call chain" (Aristeu Rozanski):
Clean up the GUP-fast call chain and simplify how the fast-path
helpers pass their arguments and results around. Keep the page-pin
behavior the same while making the call sequence easier to maintain.
- "mm: optimize zone-device memmap initialization" (Li Zhe):
Speed up initialization of zone-device struct pages. Avoid redundant
work when setting up large device-memory ranges, where touching every
descriptor can get expensive.
- "mm/zswap: shrink zswap_entry via a pool id" (Jianyue Wu):
Reduce the size of zswap_entry by storing a compact pool identifier
instead of a full pointer. Keep the pool lookup and lifetime handling
correct while saving per-entry metadata.
- "mm/damon: support access monitoring of hugetlb-backed memory"
(Krishna Iyer):
Let DAMON monitor hugetlb-backed memory too. Extend the relevant
access checks and add coverage so those mappings no longer fall
through a hole in the monitoring machinery.
- "mm/execmem: fixes and cleanups for the ROX cache" (Mike Rapoport):
Tidy execmem's read-only-executable cache and fix its handling of the
awkward allocation and release cases. The aim is to make the cache's
ownership and permission transitions more predictable.
- "zsmallc: remove old object read API" (Sergey Senozhatsky):
Drop zsmalloc's old object-read API and move its remaining users to
the supported access mechanism. This removes a duplicate interface
which we no longer need.
- "mm/mempolicy: stop copying state in the interleave paths" (Gregory
Price):
Stop copying mempolicy state in the interleave paths when a reference
to the existing policy will do. This avoids extra work and makes the
ownership rules less obscure.
- "mm/mglru: speed up inc_min_seq() and fix cold/hot inversions" (Barry
Song):
Make MGLRU's generation advancement cheaper and fix cases where cold
and hot folios end up in the wrong order. Adjust the counter and list
handling so reclaim doesn't keep passing over the better eviction
candidates.
- "mm: Fix MF_DELAYED handling on memory failure" (Lisa Wang):
Treat MF_DELAYED as a partially completed memory-failure operation,
not an outright failure. Propagate that result correctly through
shmem and the generic handler, fix the extra-reference accounting,
and add tests for the resulting SIGBUS behavior.
- "tools/mm/page_owner_sort: fix --sort, add module filter, improve
usage" (Ye Liu):
Fix page_owner_sort's --sort handling, add module-based filtering and
make the usage output more helpful. This makes the tool less
frustrating when tracking down who is holding on to pages.
- "mm/damon: move damos filter range arguments validation to core" (SJ
Park):
Move DAMOS filter range validation into the core, where all callers
can share it. Also close the sysfs read-twice races which could pass
inconsistent ranges, and add tests for invalid input.
- "mm/damon: misc cleanups" (Zenghui Yu):
Clean up a collection of small DAMON rough edges in the core,
interfaces and tests. No large behavior change here, just simpler
code and fewer opportunities for confusion.
- "mm/damon: cleanup code, add test cases, and update guidances in
docs" (SJ Park):
Clean up DAMON's core and interfaces, add missing test cases and
bring the documentation into line with the code. These changes should
make the newer facilities easier to understand and maintain.
- "mm/damon: introduce hugepage_size probe filter" (SJ Park):
Add a DAMON probe filter for hugepage size. Let users select a range
of folio sizes through sysfs, validate the range and document the new
interface, so monitoring can concentrate on memory backed by the
desired hugepage sizes.
- "selftests/mm: pagemap_ioctl test fixes and cleanups" (Zenghui Yu):
Fix some pagemap ioctl test assumptions and clean up their setup and
reporting. Make failures point to the operation that went wrong
rather than to test harness bookkeeping.
- "mm: avoid large folio splits when swap is unavailable" (Johannes
Weiner):
Avoid splitting large folios merely to attempt swap when no swap
space is available. There is little point paying for an expensive
split when reclaim cannot actually swap the resulting pages out.
- "mm: workingset: fix the shadow node budget under MGLRU" (Hui Zhu):
Fix the workingset shadow-node budget with MGLRU enabled. Keep the
shadow entries within the intended limits so refault tracking does
not quietly consume more metadata than it should.
- "selftests/mm: TAP output and global-state fixes" (Song Hu):
Fix selftests which produce misleading TAP output or fail to restore
global settings after a run. A test ought to leave the system as it
found it, particularly when a whole suite follows behind.
- "mm: remove page_swap_entry()" (Tal Zussman):
Remove page_swap_entry() and convert its remaining users to the folio
and swap-entry helpers. Lose an old page-level interface and make the
swap paths a little more consistent.
- "mm: refactor zonelist constructors and iterators" (Gregory Price):
Refactor the zonelist construction and walk helpers to reduce
duplicated logic. Keep the allocation ordering rules intact while
making it clearer how zones are selected.
- "mm: kmemleak: batch the struct page scan" (Breno Leitao):
Scan adjacent struct pages in batches instead of taking kmemleak_lock
once for every single page. This preserves scan coverage and the
lock-hold bound, while cutting overhead substantially on debug
kernels.
- "mm/damon: misc improvements in tests and documents" (Zenghui Yu):
Fix some DAMON selftests which leave kdamond running or fail under
Python safe-path mode, and improve the KUnit coverage and
documentation. Nothing especially glamorous, but these are worth
doing.
- "mm/damon: introduce probe_hits_wsum DAMOS core filter" (SJ Park):
Add a DAMOS core filter using weighted probe-hit counts. This gives
schemes another way to select regions based on what the monitoring
probes observed.
- "mm/mglru: fix ineffective memory protection for non-kswapd reclaim"
(Ridong Chen):
Fix MGLRU's memory protection handling for reclaim outside kswapd.
The protection settings weren't having the intended effect in these
paths, leaving protected memory more exposed than requested.
- "mm/damon: improve readability, clarity and test coverage" (SJ Park):
Simplify a handful of DAMON core helpers, clarify their behavior and
expand test coverage. There are no intended userspace-visible changes
in this batch.
- "mm: replace PF_KCOMPACTD/PF_KSWAPD with kthread_func()" (Kefeng
Wang):
Stop identifying reclaim and compaction workers through the PF_KSWAPD
and PF_KCOMPACTD task flags. Use their kthread functions instead and
remove the redundant flag plumbing.
- "mm/hugetlb: fix surplus accounting and availability checks during
demotion" (Longlong Xia):
Fix HugeTLB surplus accounting and availability checks when demoting
huge pages. Keep the counters and reservation decisions consistent as
one huge page turns into several smaller ones.
- "mm/damon: add kunit tests for probe_hits handling and probe params
validation" (Jason Angelov):
Add KUnit tests for DAMON probe-hit handling and invalid probe
parameters. These cover edge cases that were too easy to miss in
ordinary monitoring tests.
- "mm/damon: fix misc bugs in kunit, quota goals and sysfs refresh_ms"
(SJ Park):
Fix a few DAMON bugs in KUnit tests, quota-goal handling and the
sysfs refresh interval. Small fixes, but the incorrect results and
control behavior were real.
- "mm: zswap: optimize zswap invalidate and store" (Kefeng Wang):
Simplify zswap's invalidate and store paths to avoid avoidable
lookups and work. Keep the entry lifetime rules intact while making
those frequent operations cheaper.
- "mm: replace custom ratelimiting logic" (Pedro Falcato):
Replace hand-rolled MM rate limiting with the common kernel helpers.
There is no need to maintain another local version of the same
mechanism.
- "mm/vmalloc: minor cleanups" (Ye Liu):
Tidy some vmalloc initialization and reporting code, and pull
duplicated vmap-area insertion work into a helper. No functional
changes are intended.
- "mm/mglru: clean up isolate_folios for readability and clarity"
(Ridong Chen):
Clean up MGLRU's isolate_folios() so the decisions are easier to read
and verify. Keep reclaim behavior unchanged while removing
unnecessary twists in the control flow.
- "Catch automatic storage in IDA and Maple Tree definitions" (Yury
Norov):
Catch IDA and maple-tree definitions placed in automatic storage
where the lifetime rules are wrong or easy to get wrong. Add checks
so such mistakes are harder to slip through unnoticed.
- "mm, swap: some random fixes and cleanups" (Kemeng Shi):
Fix and simplify a few unrelated swap paths, removing redundant work
and tidying up error handling. A small collection of things which
were better fixed than left lying around.
- "mm/page_io: folio conversion cleanups" (Tal Zussman):
Finish some page-to-folio conversions in swap I/O, removing obsolete
wrappers and using folio operations consistently. The I/O behavior is
intended to remain the same.
- "mm/swap: skip empty clusters in the swapoff scan" (Youngjun Park):
Skip empty swap clusters during swapoff instead of walking slots
which have nothing to release. This avoids pointless work on sparsely
used swap devices.
- "mm: trace: decode architecture-specific VMA flags" (Meijing Zhao):
Teach the VMA trace output to decode architecture-specific flags,
rather than leaving them as unexplained bits. That should make
tracing a good deal more useful when debugging unusual mappings.
- "mm, swap: don't spin on a bad swap entry" (Breno Leitao):
Stop repeatedly retrying a swap entry which is already known to be
bad. Make the error path terminate cleanly instead of wasting CPU
chasing an entry that cannot be used.
- "mm/page_isolation: fix UBSAN shift-out-of-bounds in
isolate_single_pageblock" (Qi Xi):
Fix an out-of-range shift in isolate_single_pageblock() and tighten
its associated boundary handling. UBSAN found the issue; the result
should be more robust pageblock isolation.
- "mm: khugepaged: fix tracepoint UAF" (Vernon Yang):
Fix a use-after-free in khugepaged tracepoint handling. Make sure the
information recorded by tracing stays valid for as long as the trace
event needs it.
- "mm/damon: fix DAMOS bugs in core, paddr and vaddr" (SJ Park):
Fix several DAMOS problems across the core and physical- and
virtual-address backends. The changes close error cases and bring the
implementations back into agreement.
- "mm/hugetlb_cgroup: move the per-node usage along with the folio"
(Hongfu Li):
Move HugeTLB per-node usage accounting when folios migrate between
nodes or are reparented to another cgroup. Otherwise numa_stat can
retain stale charges and even underflow when the folio is freed.
- "docs/core-api: memory-allocation: add k[mz]alloc_obj() and clarify
kmalloc" (Mike Rapoport):
Document the typed k[mz]alloc_obj() allocation helpers and clear up
some kmalloc guidance. Make it easier for callers to choose the right
interface.
- "selftests/mm: Validate selections and scope memfd_secret setup"
(Tianyi Chen):
Check selftest selections before running and confine memfd_secret
setup to the cases that actually need it. Avoid confusing failures
caused by the test harness itself.
- "mm/damon: move zero damos quota target_value handling to the core
layer" (SJ Park):
Handle a zero DAMOS quota goal target in the core rather than making
each user of the interface invent its own rule. Keep quota decisions
consistent across callers.
- "mm/damon: Introduce a huge page collapsing mechanism using auto
tuning" (Asier Gutierrez):
Add an auto-tuned DAMON mechanism for collapsing huge pages. Use
monitoring feedback to decide when collapse is worthwhile rather than
forcing one fixed policy onto every workload.
- "kmemleak: fix stale documentation and raise the verbose default"
(Breno Leitao):
Bring the kmemleak documentation up to date and require a third
confirming scan before verbose kernels print a suspected leak. The
extra scan helps suppress transient false positives in noisy debug
builds.
- "mm/memory: improve insert_pages() error handling" (Avi Weiss):
Tighten insert_pages() error handling so partial failures are
reported and cleaned up consistently. The caller should not have to
guess how far the operation got.
- "mm/damon: allow NULL or unstarted damon_ctx parameter for
damon_call()" (SJ Park):
Make damon_call() handle NULL and not-yet-started contexts safely.
Simplify the rules for callers and avoid an indefinite wait on an
invalid state.
- "mm/damon: introduce pgidle_set probe filter type" (SJ Park):
Add a pgidle_set DAMON probe filter, giving monitoring users another
way to select pages by their idle-tracking state. Wire it through the
filter interfaces and tests.
- "mm/damon/core: remove unused helper functions" (Cheng-Han Wu):
Remove DAMON core helpers which no longer have callers. Keep the API
surface smaller rather than retaining dead code just in case.
- "mm: stop calling pmd_folio() on special PMDs" (Gregory Price):
Avoid calling pmd_folio() on special PMD mappings that have no struct
page. The old assumption could fault in procfs walkers; use the
normal-folio checks and handle those mappings properly.
- "mm: remove three unused helpers from mm.h" (Tal Zussman):
Remove three unused helpers from mm.h. Fewer obsolete interfaces for
the next person to stumble over.
- "mm/damon: improvements in efficiency, error handling, documents"
(Liew Rui Yan):
Skip needless DAMOS quota work once the quota is full, propagate a
missing sysfs error and tidy a couple of comments. The ignored error
could make a monitoring-start request appear successful when it
wasn't.
- "docs/mm/damon/design: add explanation of nr_snapshots" (Liew Rui
Yan):
Explain DAMON's nr_snapshots accounting in the design documentation
and straighten out the associated terminology. Make it clearer what
users should expect from that counter.
- "selftests/cgroup: fixes for test_zswap on single core VM" (Wilson
Felipe Pereira):
Fix two test_zswap failures on single-CPU VMs. Wait for the exiting
child's cgroup to become unpopulated before reconfiguring it, and
avoid another test assumption which breaks under constrained
scheduling.
- "docs/ksm: fix advisor documentation and comment" (Jinjiang Tu):
Correct the KSM advisor documentation and a misleading code comment.
Keep the description aligned with how the advisor actually works.
- "Fix bugs in HugeTLB allocation when mem_cgroup_charge_hugetlb()
fails" (Ackerley Tng):
Fix HugeTLB allocation cleanup when the memcg charge fails. Make sure
failure exits undo what was allocated rather than leaving stale
accounting or resources behind.
- "mm, memcg: fix memory.peak reset clobbering other fds' watermark"
(Ridong Chen):
Fix memory.peak reset handling so resetting one file descriptor
doesn't overwrite the watermark kept for another. Keep those per-open
measurements independent as intended.
- "mm: reject zone device folios in more folio walkers" (Gregory
Price):
Reject zone-device folios in page walkers that cannot safely handle
them. Extend the existing checks rather than assuming every folio has
ordinary system-memory backing.
- "percpu: remove code with no effect" (Sang-Heon Jeon):
Remove a few pieces of percpu code which no longer do anything. There
is no reason to keep maintaining dead paths.

With s390 hosting multiple independent KVM implementations within the
same kernel build (native s390 KVM and arm64 on s390), global Kconfig
selections force both implementations to inherit options that only apply
to one of them.
Replace global Kconfig options which only apply to one KVM
implementation with architecture-specific opt-in defines in the
respective <asm/kvm_host.h>. Only remove Kconfig symbols that would be
different on both s390 KVM implementations
- __KVM_HAVE_INVALID_WAKEUPS (formerly HAVE_KVM_INVALID_WAKEUPS)
- __KVM_HAVE_MSI (formerly HAVE_KVM_MSI)
- __KVM_HAVE_NO_POLL (formerly HAVE_KVM_NO_POLL)
- __KVM_HAVE_READONLY_MEM (formerly HAVE_KVM_READONLY_MEM)
- __KVM_HAVE_VCPU_RUN_PID_CHANGE (formerly HAVE_KVM_VCPU_RUN_PID_CHANGE)
This allows each architecture and guest implementation to configure its
supported capabilities independently in its kvm_host header and eliminates
adding unnecessary fallback stubs across different KVM targets.

Now generic pvpanic is supported in Linux kernel which will notify VMM
with VM crash event. There is some limitations with pvpanic, such as it
requires a good kernel stack or the CPU hardware context and panic() C
function is in health state.
Sometimes CPU hardware context or kernel/irq stack is corrupted. So
hypercall code is a more direct and low-level crash method, which is
useful in exception entry with assmble language. Here add a hypercall
code to support VM crash function, so that VMM can capture CPU crash
context in time.

VMID calculation method is the same as ASID on LoongArch which is a
percpu vmid calculation method. For every physical CPU, the VMIDs of
different VMs are different, and it is the same for different vCPUs
of the same VM.
When vCPU is scheduled on the physical CPU, it checked vmid of this VM
and the global cached vmid, and judge whether it is valid or not.

LoongArch KVM hypervisor supports two-level MMU, vpid index (GSTAT.GID
in HW) is used for stage1 MMU and vmid index (GTLBC.TGID in HW) is used
for stage2 MMU.
On Loongson-3A5000, vmid must be the same with vpid. On Loongson-3A6000
platform, vmid may separate from vpid. If a vCPU migrates to different
physical CPUs, vpid need change however vmid can keep unchanged, so that
TLB entries for stage2 MMU is valid still. Also vmid index of the whole
VM machine is the same on one physical CPU, all vCPUs on the same VM can
share the same vmid index on one physical CPU.
Similar to ASID management, there are different ID management to support
multiple VMs and vCPUs, the corresponding ID management functions are
__kvm_check_vpid() and __kvm_check_vmid().

The vmemmap optimization helpers currently live in mm/sparse.h, which is
an internal MM header. That works for MM code, but prevents powerpc from
using the same interfaces without including a private header.
Move the declarations and inline helpers to vmemmap-optimization.h. This
is a preparatory change for powerpc, which has its own vmemmap
optimization implementation and needs to use the common vmemmap
optimization interfaces from architecture code.

There are no more users left for any pxd_ERROR() either in generic MM or
in the platform MM. Hence all these platform macros along with their
generic fallback could be dropped across the tree.

Directly use pr_err() in __set_fixmap() and drop pte_ERROR() which helps
in eventually dropping pte_ERROR() macro across the tree. In this new
printing __FILE__ and __LINE__ has been dropped because they are always
the same and don't really add any value. The new ptval_to_str() helper is
being used for converting pgtable entry value into a string. The error
message itself has been cleaned up as well.

Commit 0c6378a71574 ("arch: introduce set_direct_map_valid_noflush()")
added set_direct_map_valid_noflush() to allow updating the direct map for
a physically contiguous range in execmem.
As Brendan recently pointed out [1], this API is confusing because on
arm64 it means that is sets VALID bit in ptes, while on other
architectures it is an analog of set_direct_map_default_noflush().
The only user of set_direct_map_valid_noflush() was execmem's ROX cache
freeing path and it was switched to utilize VM_FLUSH_RESET_PERMS for
resetting permissions of the direct map alias.
With the last user gone and with
set_direct_map_{invalid,default}_noflush() accepting number of pages as a
parameter, set_direct_map_valid_noflush() become a copy of
set_memory_valid() on arm64 and a duplicate of
set_direct_map_{invalid,default}_noflush() on other architecture, it is
safe to remove set_direct_map_valid_noflush().
Also drop a stale comment in arm64::__kernel_map_pages() that Linus
bothered to add when merging changes containing
set_direct_map_valid_noflush() to his tree.
This reverts commit 0c6378a71574daa6cd1534ad42a956e3262756c7.

Patch series "arch, mm/execmem: resolve confusion about
set_direct_map_valid_noflush()", v3.
Recent discussion about implementation of execmem's ROX caches on arm64
revealed a confusion about how set_direct_map_valid_noflush() implemented
on different architectures.
On arm64 it sets or clears the PTE_VALID bit marking a PTE as present or
not present.
On other architectures it's a range version of
set_direct_map_invalid_noflush() and set_direct_map_default_noflush()
Unlike arm64::set_direct_map_valid_noflush(),
set_direct_map_default_noflush() not only marks PTE as present, but also
sets its default protection mode.
Other than that, initial design of execmem ROX caches didn't rely on
restoration of large mappings that's now available on x86, but completely
removed the memory allocated for the ROX cache from the direct map to
ensure that large mappings are not split. This precluded usage of
VM_FLUSH_RESET_PERMS for the ROX cache allocations and required execmem to
implement manipulation of the direct map alias.
Current implementation of ROX caches does not remove the direct map alias
but simply calls set_memory_rox() that updates the permissions in both
vmalloc address space and the direct map and relies on
collapse_large_pages() in x86 CPA to keep large mappings.
This allow using VM_FLUSH_RESET_PERMS for execmem ROX cache allocations
with small adjustments to set_direct_map APIs and vmalloc::reset_perms()
behaviour: adding number of pages parameter to set_direct_map APIs and
making resetting of the direct map permissions in vmalloc VMAP_HUGE
friendly.
Implement these adjustments, make execmem always use VM_FLUSH_RESET_PERMS
and revert set_direct_map_valid_noflush() changes.
This patch (of 6):
When set_direct_map APIs were introduced by the commit d253ca0c3865
("x86/mm/cpa: Add set_direct_map_*() functions") the single page parameter
made sense because the initial callers (vmalloc and hibernation) had sets
of unsorted struct pages that required changes of their mappings in the
direct map.
Since there is an increasing demand for direct map manipulation and it is
also desirable to be able to update larger physically contiguous mappings,
for example an entire large folio, extend set_direct_map APIs to receive
number of pages parameter.
As there is still only a handful of callers, change the existing functions
directly and update all the call sites rather than adding wrappers for
single page case.

The IPI/EIOINTC/PCH-PIC/DMSINTC KVM devices each have a helper that
registers their kvm_device_ops, but there is no counterpart to remove
them, so a caller that needs to undo a registration has to open-code
kvm_unregister_device_ops() with the matching device type.
Add kvm_loongarch_unregister_{ipi,eiointc,pch_pic,dmsintc}_device()
next to the existing register helpers. kvm_unregister_device_ops() is a
no-op when the corresponding device type is not currently registered.
No functional change, as there are no callers yet.

- "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)
Introduce an atomic sysfs state attribute and supporting DAX/MM
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"

- "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)

- "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.

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.

Pull generic entry code updates from Thomas Gleixner:
- Make syscall user dispatching configurable
Not all architectures can makes use of syscall user dispatching.
Allow them to disable the feature completely.
- Consolidate stack randomization for the generic entry code and the
architectures using it.
Stack randomization on syscall entry was sprinkled throughout the
architecture specific low level entry code and in some cases at the
wrong points, e.g. before establishing state, which violates the
non-instrumentable constraints of that code.
Clean this up by integrating stack randomization into the generic
entry code helpers so that it is invoked at the earliest possible
point right after establishing state and converting all generic entry
code using architecture over.
- Clean up the syscall number handling in the generic entry code. It
works correctly for architectures which have a separate return value
storage in pt_regs, but fails to distinguish the case where user
space handed in -1 as syscall number from the case where the entry
code rejects it by returning -1 to the callers. Aside of that the
return value functionality of those interfaces is not really
intuitive.
Fix this by separating the decision to reject a syscall (user
dispatch, ptrace, seccomp ...) from the potential modification of the
syscall number through these mechanisms.
This solves most of the problems for architectures which do not have
a separate return value storage in pt_regs except for the case where
a tracepoint has a BPF script or a probe attached which overwrite
both the syscall number and the return value. But that's a problem
which cannot be solved in the generic code, that only can be
addressed by separating the storage model in the affected
architectures.

Add support for the internal-only BPF_MOV instruction that resolves the
absolute addresses of the per-CPU data from their per-CPU offsets. This
instruction is used only for internal inlining optimizations between the
BPF verifier and the JITs (e.g. inlining bpf_get_smp_processor_id() and
per-CPU map lookups).
LoongArch keeps the per-CPU offset of the current CPU in $r21 register
(a.k.a. __my_cpu_offset), so resolving a per-CPU address only requires
adding $r21 to the source register holding the per-CPU offset. Advertise
the capability via bpf_jit_supports_percpu_insn().

Per the Linux Kernel Memory Model, value-returning atomic RMW operations
must provide sequentially consistent ordering (a full memory barrier).
On LoongArch, plain AMO instructions and bare ll/sc loops do not satisfy
this requirement by themselves.
Update emit_atomic_rmw() to emit barrier-carrying instructions for all
value-returning BPF atomics:
- BPF_FETCH (ADD/AND/OR/XOR): use am*_db.{b,h,w,d}
- BPF_XCHG: use amswap_db.{b,h,w,d}
- BPF_CMPXCHG: emit dbar 0x700 after the ll/sc loop, matching
__WEAK_LLSC_MB in cmpxchg.h
Add the corresponding instruction encodings and emit helpers to inst.h.
Non-value-returning RMW ops (plain BPF_ADD, BPF_AND, etc.) are left as
weakly ordered, consistent with LKMM.

The current implementation handles combined bpf2bpf and tail calls by
checking at runtime whether REG_TCC holds a scalar count or a pointer
address via a conditional jump. This adds branch prediction overhead
in the hot path of tail call execution.
To implement branchless conditional move, use an unsigned comparison
(sltui) combined with mask instructions (maskeqz/masknez) to achieve
branchless classification and blending of incoming scalar counts and
kernel pointers in REG_TCC.
This optimization refactors the inner logic of the helper function,
unifies the offset decrement at the function entry, and removes all
runtime branching from the prologue hot path completely.

The current implementation of current_pt_regs() relies on the compiler
__builtin_frame_address(0). This introduces an unnecessary dependency
on the frame pointer register, which forces the compiler to generate
redundant prologue and epilogue code, create a larger stack frame, and
perform redundant memory operations to preserve the frame pointer even
in functions where it is otherwise unnecessary.
Optimize this by switching to current_stack_pointer, which explicitly
maps to the hardware stack pointer register. This allows the compiler
to compute the stack alignment directly from the natively maintained
"$sp" register, completely eliminating the overhead of preserving and
restoring the frame pointer on the stack memory.
As a prominent example, this optimization improves the hot-path function
copy_thread(). A disassembly comparison of copy_thread() illustrates the
elimination of the frame pointer, the reduction of stack frame size from
48 bytes down to 32 bytes, and a more compact epilogue path:

The current 256MB module virtual address space is easily exhausted when
loading massive graphics drivers such as amdgpu along with the large
unstripped symbol tables, resulting in allocation failures of "execmem:
unable to allocate memory".
Thus, expand the module virtual address space to 2GB while keeping
the current normal code model '-mcmodel=normal', rather than using the
medium code model '-mcmodel=medium'. This approach avoids the extra
performance overhead and larger binary size of forcing every function
call into a 2-instruction sequence of 'pcaddu18i + jirl'.
Given that individual module code segments rarely exceed 128MB, most
jumps remain fast direct calls by using the bl instruction. For the
long-distance jumps exceeding the +/-128MB limit, apply_r_larch_b26()
emits PLT entries, while signed_imm_check() guarantees the run-time
safety by rejecting any out-of-bound instruction offsets.
There is still a risk that the distance between .init.text and .text of
the same module exceeds 128MB. So we divide the 2GB virtual space to be
two sub-regions: the first 256MB is for module text, and the rest is for
module data.

get_free_mem_region() and mhp_get_pluggable_range() bound their search
to DIRECT_MAP_PHYSMEM_END. LoongArch does not define it, so the fallback
in include/linux/mm.h applies: under CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP it is
(1ULL << MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS) - 1, a compile-time constant that does not
adapt to the CPU's physical address space bits (cpu_pabits, probed from
CPUCFG1).
The vmemmap window only covers physical space below 2^(cpu_pabits+1)
(i.e. VMEMMAP_SIZE), so on CPUs with fewer physical address bits than
MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS the fallback allows get_free_mem_region() to return
a ZONE_DEVICE region outside the vmemmap window; vmemmap_populate() then
wraps the memmap range around and maps it into low memory, silently
corrupting the page tables. The same search also picked the top-of-
address-space region that crashed memmap_init_zone_device() with amdkfd
on Loongson-3C6000 in 6.16 [1]; the commit 2969b42c8f99 ("LoongArch/mm:
align vmemmap to maximal folio size") keeps that region in bounds on
current Loongson-3C6000 configs, but CPUs with smaller cpu_pabits (e.g.
the Loongson-2K series) are still affected.
Define DIRECT_MAP_PHYSMEM_END as the vmemmap-covered physical range,
(1ULL << (cpu_pabits + 1)) - 1, capped at (1ULL << MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS) - 1
under CONFIG_SPARSEMEM, similar to the commit f3336b48cf9d ("riscv: mm:
Define DIRECT_MAP_PHYSMEM_END").

Patch series "userfaultfd: working set tracking for VM guest memory", v10.
This series adds userfaultfd support for tracking the working set of VM
guest memory, so a VMM can identify hot pages and reclaim cold ones to
tiered or remote storage.
This patch (of 15):
pte_protnone() and pmd_protnone() detect present-but-inaccessible page
table entries. This capability is useful beyond NUMA balancing -- for
example, userfaultfd working set tracking uses protnone PTEs to track page
access without unmapping pages.
Introduce CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_PTE_PROTNONE to decouple the protnone PTE
infrastructure from CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING. The six architectures that
support protnone PTEs (x86_64, arm64, powerpc, s390, riscv, loongarch) now
select this option, and CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING depends on it.
No functional change -- the same set of architectures continues to have
working protnone support, but the infrastructure is now available
independently of NUMA balancing.

Multiple architectures provide a stub arch_syscall_is_vdso_sigreturn()

Introduce ARCH_SUPPORTS_SYSCALL_USER_DISPATCH to decouple this mechanism

When hardware page table walker (PTW) is enabled on LoongArch, the CPU
may set _PAGE_DIRTY directly in the page table entry during a write TLB
miss, without going through the software TLB store handler. The software
TLB store handler (tlbex.S:254) sets both _PAGE_DIRTY and_PAGE_MODIFIED
together:
ori t0, t0, (_PAGE_VALID | _PAGE_DIRTY | _PAGE_MODIFIED)
Since hardware PTW only sets _PAGE_DIRTY, the software-only bit, i.e.
_PAGE_MODIFIED is left unchanged. This creates a window where a PTE has
_PAGE_DIRTY set (hardware knows the page is dirty) but _PAGE_MODIFIED
clear (software is unaware).
When fork()/clone() triggers copy-on-write, __copy_present_ptes() calls
pte_wrprotect(), which unconditionally clears both the _PAGE_WRITE and
_PAGE_DIRTY bits:
pte_val(pte) &= ~(_PAGE_WRITE | _PAGE_DIRTY);
Since _PAGE_MODIFIED was never set, the dirtiness information is lost
completely. Subsequently, when memory pressure triggers page reclaim,
page_mkclean() / try_to_unmap() sees the page as clean (i.e. pte_dirty()
returns false) and the page may be freed without writeback, causing data
corruption.
Fix this by propagating the _PAGE_DIRTY bit to the _PAGE_MODIFIED bit in
both pte_wrprotect() and pmd_wrprotect() before clearing writeable bits:
if (pte_val(pte) & _PAGE_DIRTY)
pte_val(pte) |= _PAGE_MODIFIED;
The pmd_wrprotect() fix handles the CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE case,
where pmd entries need the same treatment.
This ensures the software dirty tracking bit (checked by pte_dirty() and
pmd_dirty(), which read both the _PAGE_DIRTY and _PAGE_MODIFIED bits) is
preserved across fork COW write-protection.
The issue was found by the LTP madvise09 test case, which exercises page
reclaim after "madvise(MADV_FREE), write and fork" operation sequence on
private anonymous mappings.

For ACPI system we suppose the ISA/LPC PIO range is registered together
with PCI root bridge. But the fact is there may be some early access to
the ISA/LPC PIO range before ACPI PCI root register (most of them are
due to abnormal BIOS). Unconditionally register the ISA/LPC PIO range
usually causes ACPI PCI root register fail because of the address range
confliction. So we add a pair of helpers: acpi_add_early_pio() to add
PIO for early access, and acpi_remove_early_pio() to remove PIO before
PCI root register. Since acpi_remove_early_pio() may be called multiple
times, we add an acpi_pio flag to ensure PIO be removed only once.

Like other architectures such as x86, arm64, riscv, powerpc and s390,
select THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK for LoongArch to move thread_info off the
stack into task_struct. This follows modern kernel standards and also
makes the system more secure.
With this patch, thread_info is included in task_struct at an offset
of 0 instead of being placed at the bottom of the kernel stack. Thus,
the $tp register points to both thread_info and task_struct.
To support this, introduce a per-CPU variable cpu_tasks to store the
pointer to the current task_struct. This decouples the recovery of the
$tp register from the stack pointer during exception entry.
Then initialize cpu_tasks for the primary and secondary CPUs during
arch-specific setup and SMP boot paths. To eliminate the dangerous
windows during the early initialization where the cpu_tasks remains
uninitialized, set_current() is invoked as early as possible in both
setup_arch() and start_secondary(). This ensures the $tp recovery
barrier is armed in case any early boot exceptions or kernel panics
occur.
Modify SAVE_SOME and handle_syscall to restore the $tp register from
cpu_tasks, and also use the la_abs absolute addressing for cpu_tasks
access in assembly to bypass the relocation limits within exception
handling sections. By advancing the preservation of u0 in SAVE_SOME,
we reuse the PERCPU_BASE_KS value in u0 for the cpu_tasks calculation,
effectively eliminating a duplicate csrrd instruction execution on SMP
platforms.
Update <asm/switch_to.h> and <kernel/switch.S> to fully support the
CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK feature.
Remove the obsolete next_ti argument from __switch_to(), which shifts
the remaining arguments ahead in the calling convention (sched_ra from
a3 to a2, and sched_cfa from a4 to a3). Under the new configuration,
__switch_to() now directly derives the thread pointer ($tp) from the
next task_struct pointer in a1.
To preserve the optimal and clean "move tp, a1" path for 64-bit kernels,
the thread pointer ($tp) is assigned directly from a1 in the core path.
For 32-bit kernels, where a1 carries a 2000-byte structural pointer bias
at entry, an explicit adjustment "PTR_ADDI tp, tp, -TASK_STRUCT_OFFSET"
is introduced at the function exit.
In the context of __switch_to(), local interrupts are disabled, and the
kernel is in a critical switching phase where handling any synchronous
exception is practically impossible and prohibited.
If any synchronous exception or watchpoint does trigger in this narrow
window, it constitutes a fatal double fault and the kernel is expected
to die/panic immediately anyway. Therefore, the temporary biased value
in $tp is safe and acceptable here.
Additionally, evaluate the stack lookup as a single load instruction
"LONG_LPTR t0, a1, (TASK_STACK - TASK_STRUCT_OFFSET)", this perfectly
satisfies both 32-bit and 64-bit kernels. Using the "next" pointer in
a1 as the base register, rather than $tp, effectively unchains the data
dependency (RAW hazard) from the preceding move instruction, maximizing
the instruction-level parallelism and superscalar execution efficiency
while naturally adapting the structural shift.
With CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK enabled, the kernel stack life cycle is
decoupled from task_struct and can be freed concurrently.
Currently, show_stacktrace() reads raw stack data via __get_addr() and
subsequently calls show_backtrace() to unwind the frame, without holding
any reference to the target task's stack. If show_stacktrace() is called
on a concurrently exiting task, it could attempt to read from a freed or
reallocated kernel stack. This introduces a severe use-after-free (UAF)
read risk or kernel panics.
Wrap the entire stack inspection process inside show_stacktrace() with
a try_get_task_stack() and put_task_stack() pair. This ensures the task
stack remains pinned safely during both the raw stack data dump loop and
the subsequent stack unwinding phase.
Also, ensure that the task pointer is initialized to "current" early if
it is NULL, so that try_get_task_stack() always operates on a valid task
reference.

With interrupt post, register CSR.GINTC and CSR.ESTAT is used, and
CSR.ESTAT is used for percpu interrupt injection and CSR.GINTC is for
external hardware interrupt injection.
Here use existing macro about interrupt bit of register CSR.GINTC and
CSR.ESTAT, rather than hard coded constant value.

In kvm_lose_fpu() FPU state is save in vcpu::arch::fpu, its FPU status
comes from vcpu->arch.aux_inuse. Instead existing API vm_guest_has_xxx()
can be used also, moreover, the bits KVM_LARCH_LSX and KVM_LARCH_LASX in
arch.aux_inuse are removed. It makes the logic simpler than ever.

There are three FPU types FPU/LSX/LASX, which represents FPU64, FPU128
and FPU256, and now lazy FPU method is used with FPU enabling. There are
three different HW FPU exception code with different FPU type.
The exising method is to enable specified FPU type with responding FPU
exeception. Supposing application uses FPU64 and FPU256, there will be
FPU256 exception when FPU256 type is used.
Here enable FPU with the max VM supported type directly, so it can avoid
unnecessary FPU exception in future if further FPU type is used.
