Pull more MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- "mm: make VMA flag semantics explicit, eliminate VM_SPECIAL" (Lorenzo
Stoakes):
Replace VM_SPECIAL with helpers describing mapping ownership and
behavior. Enforce the mmap flag rules and convert affected drivers,
removing ambiguous tests shared by driver mappings and ordinary
memory.
- "support kselftest on nommu platform" (Hajime Tazaki):
Add opt-in mmap and mremap tests for NOMMU systems. Teach the runner
to avoid its fork-dependent timeout command and document the build
and runtime requirements.
- "mm/collapse: separate a collapse from its callers" (Kiryl
Shutsemau):
Separate huge-page collapse from caller policy. Replace khugepaged
identity checks with explicit permissions, and separate scanning from
collapse with the mmap_lock drop in one place.
- "mm: implement and use vma_has_anon_rmap(), silence KCSAN" (Lorenzo
Stoakes):
Provide a common helper for testing whether a VMA has anonymous
reverse mappings. Document the locking rules, annotate intentional
concurrent reads for KCSAN, and convert the core MM callers.
- "mm/sparse: remove SECTION_MARKED_PRESENT and further cleanups"
(David Hildenbrand):
Remove SECTION_MARKED_PRESENT in favor of the early-section flag.
Simplify sparse memory initialization, section metadata handling and
related PFN validity checks.
- "sh: remove NUMA and SPARSEMEM support" (Mike Rapoport):
Remove SuperH NUMA and SPARSEMEM support. The extra memory banks have
been unusable since the NO_BOOTMEM conversion, leaving only the code
and data overhead.
- "mm: Unify device DAX and HugeTLB vmemmap population paths" (Muchun
Song):
Unify the generic device DAX and HugeTLB vmemmap population paths and
shared tail-page handling. Remove the duplicate DAX machinery while
retaining the powerpc radix implementation.
- "kselftest: mm: fix some failure of split_huge_page_test" (Yeoreum
Yun):
Fix huge-page split tests racing with khugepaged recollapse. Use
pagemap and page flags instead of VMA-boundary assumptions which fail
when glibc has already enabled THP.
- "memcg: move memcgid refcount to objcg to unpin dying memcgs"
(Bingfang Guo):
Let dying memcgs be freed while swapped-out shmem still holds their
IDs. Move ID references to reparentable objcgs, with the necessary
swap accounting and RCU lifetime changes.
- "mm/truncate: fix data loss when truncating straddling large folios"
(Zhang Yi):
Preserve out-of-range data when truncating straddling large folios.
Fix a lookup race and split-failure handling, and handle minimum
folio orders for the forthcoming ext4 iomap buffered I/O path.
- "mm/damon: introduce damos quota goal target metric complement flag"
(SJ Park):
Let DAMOS quota goals use a metric's complement, so utilization can
also express free-memory goals without adding separate metrics. Add
the sysfs interface, documentation and tests.
- "arm64/mm: Standardize printing for pgtable entries" (Anshuman
Khandual):
Use the generic formatter for arm64 page-table entries, ready for
future wider entries. Move the safe-PTE-update check out of the
header to avoid an include cycle.
- "mm: kmsan: fix iounmap metadata teardown" (Dima Koziuk):
Fix KMSAN metadata leaks on iounmap and failed ioremap allocations.
Free backing pages before removing their mappings, and share the
teardown with partial-allocation cleanup.
- "mm/damon/core: preserve quota state when constructing schemes" (Karl
Mehltretter):
Preserve running DAMOS quota state while validating parameter
updates. Even rejected updates could reset accounting and exceed the
quota window; add tests for both accepted and rejected updates.
- "mm/vmalloc: fix vmalloc_dump_obj VA lookup" (Ye Liu):
Fix vmalloc_dump_obj() lookups for last-page addresses and
allocations spanning vmap zones. These allocations were being missed
in diagnostic output.
- "mm: various (urgent?) fixes" (David Hildenbrand):
Fix mmap charge leaks and hugetlb use-after-free, wrong-address
unmapping, stuck locks and endless faults. Also preserve reservations
on failed mremap and handle stale userfaultfd bits.
- "maple_tree: fix maple_range_64 crashes in RCU mode" (Dimitris
Charisis):
Fix pointer and metadata confusion during RCU destruction of
maple_range_64 nodes, avoiding double frees and invalid accesses. Add
a regression test; no in-tree user currently uses this combination.
- "mm: fix hugetlb NR_HUGETLB accounting on folio migration" (Hongfu
Li):
Fix hugetlb migration and preallocation accounting so /proc/vmstat
retains the correct count and memory.numa_stat follows the folio to
its new node.
- "mm/damon: fix a minor bug, clean code, and add a test" (SJ Park):
Fix 32-bit DAMON age overflow which made old regions look young.
Share hugetlb folio acquisition code and add a regression test for
the previously fixed last-region skipping bug.
- "mm/damon/core: cleanup code, reduce stack usage, and add kunit" (SJ
Park):
Reduce kdamond stack usage and remove unused enums. Add deterministic
PSI quota-goal tests which do not depend on the machine's current
memory pressure.
- "mm/damon: fix the temporal goal tuner's size quota conversion"
(Donggeun Yoo):
Bound the temporal tuner's quota conversion to prevent overflow and
zero effective quotas, which could stop schemes making progress. Add
boundary tests.
- "Don't use GFP_DMA when calling dma_alloc_coherent" (Baoquan He):
Remove redundant GFP_DMA flags from coherent DMA allocation calls.
The DMA API already selects the zone from device limits and ignores
the caller's flag.
- "kselftest: mm: fix intermittent failure khugepaged test" (Yeoreum
Yun):
Propagate child-process failures in the khugepaged tests and prevent
background collapse from racing their checks. This removes false
passes and intermittent failures.
- "MAINTAINERS: cover all hugetlb headers under HUGETLB SUBSYSTEM"
(Enze Li):
Cover all hugetlb headers in MAINTAINERS so get_maintainer.pl finds
the right maintainers. Also label the closing hugetlb_cgroup.h
include guard.
Summary of the 65 singletons in this merge:
The singletons include a few worthwhile performance fixes. Avoiding
unnecessary reverse-map tree updates gave a reported 15.9% improvement
in UnixBench's execl test on a 192-core x86 system. A reclaim retry
fix stops defrag_mode from spinning under memory.low protection; a
reported file-creation stress test ran 5.7 times faster, with far less
memory pressure. Narrower hugetlb invalidations also spare KVM guests
needless refaults: the reported Redis-in-VM P99 QPS penalty while
punching holes fell from 7.09% to 1.45%.
Several fixes prevent lost data or corrupted memory. Lazyfree
huge-page races with mremap()/munmap() could lose data or access freed
memory, and MADV_COLD could lose a concurrent write's dirty bit.
Another fix prevents stale migration entries from outliving large
folios. On filesystems with blocks smaller than a page, extending a
file by 4 GiB or more could expose bytes written past the old EOF
through mmap instead of zeroes. That is fixed, along with
use-after-free races in PAGEMAP_SCAN during process exit and in
memory-cgroup accounting on PREEMPT_RT kernels.
Other fixes stop UFFDIO_MOVE spinning forever on pinned large folios,
which could wedge other memory operations, and stop mremap() leaking
commit charges until allocations fail under strict overcommit. A
further fix keeps userfaultfd tracking intact on neighboring mappings.
NUMA binding no longer prevents long-term pins when the chosen node
has only movable memory, fixing QEMU/VFIO startup and io_uring buffer
registration failures. MGLRU also gets a fix for early-boot crashes
with memory cgroups disabled at boot, notably in small crash kernels.

Pull sh updates from John Paul Adrian Glaubitz:
"Fixes and improvements for various boards as well as the generic sh
kernel:
- help the mach-x3proto and ecovec24 boards get rid off the use of
the old platform data API in the kernel. For the former board,
software nodes are being used for gpio-keys now while for the
latter board, static device properties are used to describe the
touchscreen (Dmitry Torokhov)
- a build fix when CONFIG_BUILTIN_DTB is enabled, and fix an issue
with __get_user_u64() and __put_user_u64() using wrong memory
operands which could cause the kernel build to fail with "invalid
'asm'" or an internal compiler error in GCC's change_address_1
(Florian Fuchs)
- update various default configuration files of several boards to
replace the removed CONFIG_USB_GADGET_M66592 with the new
CONFIG_USB_M66592 Kconfig option (Pengpeng Hou)
- fix two issues with the SH-7785LCR evaluation board: fix a kernel
memory leak which occurred as a result of the prio and sense lists
being sorted too early in register_intc_controller(), and fix the
the registration of the PCA9564 controller so that the RTC works
properly again (Karl Mehltretter)
- fix missing cookies when calling free_irq() in the maple bus driver
which ensures that IRQ handlers can be properly unregistered and
the kernel does not emit a WARN message (Runyu Xiao)
- select BINFMT_FLAT_NO_DATA_START_OFFSET for !MMU configurations
such that there is no gap at the end of text and init runs which
causes the GOT register to point below the real GOT, so every GOT
load reads the neighbouring slot and gets a wrong pointer (Waldemar
Brodkorb)"
* tag 'sh-for-v7.4-tag1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/glaubitz/sh-linux:
sh: Select BINFMT_FLAT_NO_DATA_START_OFFSET for !MMU
sh: maple: Use the matching IRQ cookie when invoking free_irq()
sh: sh7785lcr: Register the PCA9564 controller as I2C bus 0
sh: intc: Sort the prio and sense lists after filling them

Patch series "sh: remove NUMA and SPARSEMEM support", v2.
NUMA support for SuperH was introduced a long time ago by commit
b241cb0c885e ("sh: Support for multiple nodes.")
"... for boards with many different memory blocks that are
otherwise unused (SH7722/SH7785 URAM and so forth)"
In reality, this added 128K of memory on sh7722 and sh7785 and 256K on
shx3 at the expense of all the NUMA related code in the kernel.
For build of v7.0-rc7 with defconfig and the same configuration with
CONFIG_NUMA disabled, bloat-o-meter reports difference of ~76k. Disabling
CONFIG_SPARSMEM on top increases the difference to ~94k. And that's only
overhead in code and static data that does not take into the account data
structures allocated at run time.
And all this overhead has been there for nothing for almost 8 years
because since commit ac21fc2dcb40 ("sh: switch to NO_BOOTMEM") those
additional "nodes" could not be used by the core MM because the maximal
pfn for ZONE_NORMAL was cut out at the end of the normal memory.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm
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.

binfmt_flat offsets the in-memory start of the data segment by
MAX_SHARED_LIBS words and then aligns it to FLAT_DATA_ALIGN, so FLAT_FLAG_RAM
binaries end up with a gap between text and data (commit 2217b9826246
("binfmt_flat: revert "binfmt_flat: don't offset the data start"")).
SH position-independent code finds the GOT with a PC-relative mova of
_GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_, which assumes data follows text directly, as elf2flt
lays out the image. With the gap, the GOT register points below the real GOT,
so every GOT load reads the neighbouring slot and gets a wrong pointer. On a
J2 (sh2eb, no MMU) this made userland crash or hang right after start-up.
In my case the data was moved up by 0x20 bytes.
Commit 04d82a6d0881 ("binfmt_flat: allow not offsetting data start") added
CONFIG_BINFMT_FLAT_NO_DATA_START_OFFSET for architectures that cannot
tolerate such a gap; currently only riscv !MMU selects it. Select it on SH
as well when building without an MMU.
Tested on a J2 board (Numato Mimas V2, sh2eb, no MMU) with Linux 7.3 and
FLAT binaries built with elf2flt: with this change the data segment starts
exactly at the end of text and init runs.
Without the patch bootup fails with:
[ 12.080472] Fixing up unaligned userspace access in "init" pid=1 pc=0x(ptrval) ins=0x6583
[ 12.123609] Fixing up unaligned userspace access in "init" pid=1 pc=0x(ptrval) ins=0x6583

Before commit 44454baa7ca7 ("i2c: Dynamically assign adapter id if it
wasn't explictly specified"), a negative ID was replaced by zero, and
I2C bus zero was instantiated. Since that commit, a negative ID is passed
verbatim, instantiating an I2C bus with a dynamic number. As SH boards
still use i2c_register_board_info(0, ...) to register I2C devices, they
rely on the I2C bus being bus zero.
The SH7785LCR is the only SH board whose I2C adapter has a negative ID
and its PCA9564 controller becomes i2c-1, causing registration of the
R2025S/D RTC to fail and hwclock not detecting /dev/rtc0.
Set the platform device ID to 0 so that the adapter is registered as
bus zero again.

Since commit 48ebe1cbbeb51 ("kbuild: compress the kernel with pigz if
available"), cmd_gzip runs pigz through scripts/jobserver-exec, which
takes the job slots make has free. GNU Make passes the jobserver pipe
only to recipes it treats as recursive, but leaves --jobserver-auth in
MAKEFLAGS for all of them. The make 4.3 in CentOS Stream 9 also hides
the pipe in sub-makes (a backport of the fix for GNU Make bug 58232), so
jobserver-exec cannot open it, runs pigz on one thread, and prints:
WARNING: Unable to reopen jobserver read-side pipe: FileNotFoundError(2, 'No such file or directory')
Mark every recipe that can run cmd_gzip as recursive with "+", as
commit ecab4115c44cc ("kbuild: mark `rustc` (and others) invocations as
recursive") did for rustc. Besides the $(call if_changed,gzip) rules,
this covers those that choose gzip through a variable: the built-in
initramfs in usr/Makefile (which rcutorture's kvm.sh builds), the EFI
zboot image, and the arm, csky, and mips compressed images. As with
rustc, "make -n" now runs these recipes, including those that choose
through a variable when they select another compressor. Also update the
gzip entry in Documentation/kbuild/makefiles.rst, as suggested in
review.
Tested with GNU Make 4.3 plus CentOS Stream 9's make-4.3-cloexec.patch,
GCC 16.2.0, and -j64, on ARCH=x86_64, arm64, and arm defconfig, and
ARCH=x86_64 defconfig with a built-in initramfs: none of them prints the
warning, and pigz gets the free job slots (-p 54, 64, and 50 for the
kernel image). Without this change, the x86_64 builds print it for the
kernel image and for the initramfs.

Now every architecture has been converted to support
CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE, this configuration option no longer
makes any sense to keep around.
Therefore remove it, and remove all the dead code that existed for
!CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE architectures previously.
Additionally, CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_TABLE_FREE is no longer necessary, as all
architectures instead use CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_TLB_REMOVE_TABLE when a custom
__tlb_remove_table() is required, so remove this too.
A number of architectures only enabled CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE if
CONFIG_MMU was set, however the mmu_gather logic only actually does
something meaningful if CONFIG_MMU is set (mmu_gather.c is only compiled
in this case, for instance).
As a result, there's no need to gate any of this logic on CONFIG_MMU
explicitly.
CONFIG_PT_RECLAIM however does have a strict dependency on CONFIG_MMU, so
make this dependency explicit.
Additionally, correct comments to remove references to non-RCU page table
gathering and make it clear that this is not 'semi-RCU', nor has it been
since commit 1fb3d8c20bfa ("mm/mmu_gather: replace IPI with
synchronize_rcu() when batch allocation fails").
With this change in place the kernel policy is now that userspace page
tables are freed after an RCU grace period, and thus it is now safe to
unconditionally perform page table walks under RCU, safe in the knowledge
that page tables will not be freed underneath the walker.
This is all that is guaranteed, however, so naturally it is still
incumbent upon page table walkers to ensure that the page table entries
are as expected.

Currently, non-x2 sh specifies CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE allowing
RCU page table freeing.
sh-X2 is problematic because it utilises slab-allocated PMD page tables,
and thus tlb_remove_ptdesc() cannot be used in these cases.
All other sh variants are fine as commit e3ecf7c7d082 ("mm: pgtable:
convert some architectures to use tlb_remove_ptdesc()") already converted
page table freeing to use tlb_remove_ptdesc(), which does so after an RCU
grace period when CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE is specified.
Resolve this issue by firstly specifying CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_TLB_REMOVE_TABLE
for sh-X2, so the arch can provide its own __tlb_remove_table()
implementation (called after the RCU grace period).
Then, convert __pmd_free_tlb() to tag the pointer to the PMD, and have
__tlb_remove_table() check this tag to determine whether to free via the
slab or to use pagetable_dtor_free().
This follows the pattern used by sparc64 as implemented in commit
4a0100f7546f ("sparc64: use RCU page table freeing").
Previously __pmd_free_tlb() freed PMD page tables immediately, before any
TLB flush IPI. This seems to be a pre-existing bug, which this change
also resolves.
CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_TLB_REMOVE_TABLE is only specified for sh-X2, as setting
it disables CONFIG_PT_RECLAIM and causes __tlb_remove_table_one() to call
tlb_remove_table_sync_rcu() and synchronize_rcu() in turn, and this is not
necessary for other sh variants.
This forms part of an overall effort to switch every architecture to this
mode.

Commit e3ecf7c7d082 ("mm: pgtable: convert some architectures to use
tlb_remove_ptdesc()") updated a number of architectures from using
pagetable_dtor() + tlb_remove_page_ptdesc() to using tlb_remove_ptdesc()
in __pte_free_tlb().
This is meaningful as tlb_remove_ptdesc() allows for RCU page table
freeing if CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE is specified.
The csky, hexagon, nios2, openrisc, sh (except X2) and m68k-sun3
architectures all have 2 levels of page tables, so the only page tables
ever freed by mmu_gather are PTEs, so this update suffices to ensure that
every page table freed by the mmu_gather mechanism is freed under RCU.
Therefore, update all of these architectures to select
CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE.
This forms part of an overall effort to switch every architecture to this
mode.

Directly use pr_err() in set_pte_phys() 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. Besides ptrval_to_str() has been
able to handle different PTE representation with and without CONFIG_X2TLB,
which helped in unifying error message printing.

SH has no byte or halfword atomic memory operations, so the __cmpxchg()
switch routes case 1 through cmpxchg_emu_u8() and lets case 2 fall
through to __cmpxchg_called_with_bad_pointer(), which is declared but
never defined, so a two-byte cmpxchg() fails at link time. Route case
2 through the new cmpxchg_emu_u16(), which takes the old and new
values as unsigned long, so the (unsigned long) casts move off the
call and into _old_ and _new_ declarations that type check the old
and new arguments against *ptr through (unsigned long)(0 ? *ptr : _o_),
the idiom David Laight suggested, so cmpxchg(&p, 4, 5) no longer
compiles silently.

The 64-bit __get_user_u64()/__put_user_u64() paths address the memory
operand as %T2 (base+4). This base+4 requires an offsettable address,
but "m" also allows the indexed mode @(R0,Rn) (e.g. for a variable-
indexed array element), which has no displacement field for the +4.
Depending on optimization this build fails with "invalid 'asm'" or an
ICE in GCC's change_address_1.
Require an offsettable memory operand, allowing GCC to reload an
unsuitable indexed address into an appropriate form.

Convert the board to use static device properties instead of platform
data to describe the touchscreen, so that support for platform data can
be removed from tsc2007 driver (ecovec24 is the last board using this
mechanism of describing tsc2007).
Device properties do not allow custom board methods, so the method for
getting "pen down" state was removed (the driver is capable of working
without it). If this functionality is needed proper pin control/gpio
support needs to be implemented so that the same pin can serve as an
input GPIO and an interrupt.

We want to convert the legacy gpio-keys platform device on the SH-X3
Prototype board to use software nodes. To do this properly and allow
referencing the GPIO controller by address rather than relying on
name-based matching (which is being removed from the gpiolib core),
we need to associate the GPIO controller with a software node.
Introduce x3proto_gpiochip_node, register it, and associate it with
x3proto_gpio_chip.

removal more than a decade ago along with some now empty asm/timex.h

- Consolidate delay timer calibration
The construct of having a define in a header requires that
architectures provided asm/timex.h for no reason. Also the function
name for reading the delay timer is confusing at best.
Use a config switch to enable that functionality and rename the

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.

gpio: legacy interface cleanups for 7.3
These are the remaining patches for legacy gpio interface
cleanup, ensuring that files referencing them are sure to
have CONFIG_GPIOLIB_LEGACY set, and use linux/gpio/legacy.h
instead of the old linux/gpio.h header.
There are a few more patches already merged in other
branches for 7.3, including soc, led, net and media. Once
everything is in, we can apply the final patches to turn
off CONFIG_GPIOLIB_LEGACY by default and remove the obsolete
header file.
This branch is based on the immutable ib-mfd-legacy-gpio-7.3
branch from mfd.git to avoid a conflict in the rohm drivers.

linux/gpio.h should no longer be used, convert these instead to
linux/gpio/legacy.h for the sh boards using the legacy interfaces,
or remove it where it is not needed at all.

The return value of __secure_computing() currently uses 0 to indicate
that a system call should be allowed, and -1 to indicate that it should
be blocked/killed. This 0/-1 pattern is non-intuitive for a security
check function and makes the control flow at the call sites less readable.
Furthermore, any potential future changes to these return values would
require a high-risk, error-prone audit of all its users across different
architectures.
Sanitize this logic by converting the return type of __secure_computing()
to a proper boolean, where 'true' explicitly means 'allow' and 'false'
means 'fail/deny'.
Update all the two dozen or so call sites across the tree to align with
this new boolean semantic. No functional changes are intended, as the
callers still return -1 to the lower-level assembly entry code upon
seccomp denial.
Rename the function to __seccomp_permit_syscall() so that the purpose is
entirely clear.

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
"Core & protocols:
- Work on removing rtnl_lock protection throughout the stack
continues. In this chapter:
- don't use rtnl_lock for IPv6 multicast routing configuration
- don't take rtnl_lock in ethtool for modern drivers
- prepare Qdisc dump callbacks for rtnl_lock removal
- Support dumping just ifindex + name of all interfaces, under RCU.
It's a common operation for Netlink CLI tools (when translating
names to ifindexes) and previously required full rtnl_lock.
- Support dumping qdiscs and page pools for a specific netdev. Even
tho user space wants a dump of all netdevs, most of the time, the
OOO programming model results in repeating the dump for each
netdev. Which, in absence of a cache, leads to a O(n^2) behavior.
- Flush nexthops once on multi-nexthop removal (e.g. when device goes
down), another O(n^2) -> O(n) improvement.
- Rehash locally generated traffic to a different nexthop on
retransmit timeout.
- Honor oif when choosing nexthop for locally generated IPv6 traffic.
- Convert TCP Auth Option to crypto library, and drop non-RFC algos.
- Increase subflow limits in MPTCP to 64 and endpoint limit to 256.
- Support MPTCP signaling of IPv6 address + port (ADD_ADDR). We need
to selectively skip reporting of the standard TCP Timestamp option,
because they won't fit into the header space together (12 + 30 >
40).
- Support using bridge neighbor suppression, Duplicate Address
Detection, Gratuitous ARP and unsolicited NA forwarding - in EVPN
deployments, e.g. VXLAN fabrics (IPv4 and IPv6).
- Improve link state reporting for upper netdevs (e.g. macvlan) over
tunnel devices (again, mostly for EVPN deployments).
- Support binding GENEVE tunnels to a local address.
- Speed up UDP tunnel destruction (remove one synchronize_rcu()).
- Support exponential field encoding in multicast (IGMPv3 and MLDv2).
- Support attaching PSP crypto offload to containers (veth, netkit).
- Add a new IPSec Netlink message XFRM_MSG_MIGRATE_STATE that allows
migrating individual IPsec SAs independently of their policies.
The existing XFRM_MSG_MIGRATE is tightly coupled to policy+SA
migration, lacks SPI for unique SA identification, and cannot
express reqid changes or migrate Transport mode selectors.
The new interface identifies the SA via SPI and mark, supports
reqid changes, address family changes, encap removal, and uses an
atomic create+install flow under x->lock to prevent SN/IV reuse
during AEAD SA migration.
- Implement GRO/GSO support for PPPoE.
- Convert sockopt callbacks in a number of protocols to iov_iter.
Cross-tree stuff:
- Remove support for Crypto TFM cloning (unblocked after the TCP Auth
Option rework). This feature regressed performance for all crypto
API users, since it changed crypto transformation objects into
reference-counted objects.
- Add FCrypt-PCBC implementation to rxrpc and remove it from the
global crypto API as obsolete and insecure.
Wireless:
- Major rework of station bandwidth handling, fixing issues with
lower capability than AP.
- Cleanups for EMLSR spec issues (drafts differed).
- More Neighbor Awareness Networking (Wi-Fi Aware) work (multicast,
schedule improvements, multi-station etc.)
- Some Ultra High Reliability (UHR) / IEEE 802.11bn (D1.4) work
(e.g. non-primary channel access, UHR DBE support).
- Fine Timing Measurement ranging (i.e. distance measurement) APIs.
Netfilter:
- Use per-rule hash initval in nf_conncount. This avoids unnecessary
lock contention with short keys (e.g. conntrack zones) in different
namespaces.
- Various safety improvements, both in packet parsing and object
lifetimes. Notably add refcounts to conntrack timeout policy.
Deletions:
- Remove TLS + sockmap integration. TLS wants to pin user pages to
avoid a copy, and sockmap wants to write to the input stream. More
work on this integration is clearly needed, and we can't find any
users (original author admitted that they never deployed it).
- Remove support for TLS offload with TCP Offload Engine (the far
more common opportunistic offload is retained). The locking looks
unfixable (driver sleeps under TCP spin locks) and people from the
vendor that added this are AWOL.
- Remove more ATM code, trying to leave behind only what PPPoATM
needs, AAL5 and br2684 with permanent circuits.
- Remove AppleTalk. Let it join hamradio in our out of tree protocol
graveyard, I mean, repository.
- Disable 32-bit x_tables compatibility (32bit binaries on 64bit
kernel) interface in user namespaces. To be deleted completely,
soon.
- Remove 5/10 MHz support from cfg80211/mac80211.

configuration
- support Socket Direct (multi-PF) with switchdev offloads

AppleTalk has been removed in MacOS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard), in 2009,
according to Wikipedia. We recently got a burst of AI generated
fixes to this protocol which nobody is reviewing.
Let AppleTalk follow AX.25 and hamradio out of the Linux tree.
We we will maintain the code at: github.com/linux-netdev/mod-orphan
for anyone interested in playing with it.
Retain the uAPI for now. No strong reason, simply because I suspect
keeping it will be less controversial.

Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
"It feels like the new world of AI tooling has slowed us down a little
on the feature side when compared to the fixes side. The extra rounds
of Sashiko review have also pushed a few things out until next time.
Still, there's some good foundational stuff here for the fpsimd code
and hardening work towards removing the predictable linear alias of
the kernel image.
CPU errata handling:
- Extend CnP disabling workaround to HiSilicon HIP09 hardware.
- Work around eternally broken broadcast TLB invalidation on more
CPUs.
- Documentation and code cleanups.
CPU features:
- Add new hwcaps for the 2025 dpISA extensions.
Floating point / SVE / SME:
- Significant cleanup to the low-level state management code in the
core architecture code and KVM.
- Use correct register widths during SVE/SME save/restore assembly.
- Expose SVE/SME save/restore memory accesses to sanitisers.
Memory management:
- Preparatory work for unmapping the kernel data and bss sections
from the linear map.
Miscellaneous:
- Inline DAIF manipulation helpers so they can be used safely from
non-instrumentable code.
- Fix handling of the 'nosmp' cmdline option to avoid marking
secondary cores as "possible".
MPAM:
- Add support for v0.1 of the MPAM architecture.
Perf:
- Update HiSilicon PMU MAINTAINERS entry.
- Fix event encodings for the DVM node in the CMN driver.
Selftests:
- Extend sigframe tests to cover POE context.
- Add coverage for the newly added 2025 dpISA hwcaps.
System registers:
- Add new registers and ESR encodings for the HDBSS feature.
Plus minor fixes and cleanups across the board"

Pull interrupt core updates from Thomas Gleixner:
- Rework of /proc/interrupt handling:
/proc/interrupts was subject to micro optimizations for a long time,
but most of the low hanging fruit was left on the table. This rework
addresses the major time consuming issues:
- Printing a long series of zeros one by one via a format string
instead of counting subsequent zeros and emitting a string
constant.
- Simplify and cache the conditions whether interrupts should be
printed
- Use a proper iteration over the interrupt descriptor xarray
instead of walking and testing one by one.
- Provide helper functions for the architecture code to emit the
architecture specific counters
- Convert the counter structure in x86 to an array, which
simplifies the output and add mechanisms to suppress unused
architecture interrupts, which just occupy space for nothing.
Adopt the new core mechanisms.
This adjusts the gdb scripts related to interrupt counter statistics
to work with the new mechanisms.
- Prevent a string overflow in the /proc/irq/$N/ directory name
creation code.

The only user of PCBC mode (Propagating Cipher Block Chaining mode) was
net/rxrpc/rxkad.c, which now uses local code instead.
While PCBC was an interesting cryptographic experiment, it has largely
been relegated to the history books and academic exercises. It is
non-parallelizable (i.e., very slow) and doesn't actually achieve the
integrity properties it was apparently intended to achieve.
Remove support for it from the crypto API.

Remove the insecure FCrypt block cipher from the crypto API. Its only
user was net/rxrpc/, but now net/rxrpc/ implements it locally. The
crypto API implementation is no longer needed.
For some additional context: FCrypt was designed in 1988 and is
essentially a weakened version of DES. It has the same 56-bit key size
as DES, which is easily brute forced. Moreover, it's cryptographically
weak and doesn't even provide the intended 56-bit security level. Its
author considers it to be a mistake, as well
(https://lists.openafs.org/pipermail/openafs-devel/2000-December/005320.html).
But fortunately this 1980s-era homebrew block cipher was never adopted
outside of net/rxrpc/. So its code can just be kept there.

SuperH performs cache maintenance on the zero page during boot,
presumably because before commit
6215d9f4470f ("arch, mm: consolidate empty_zero_page")
the zero page did double duty as a boot params region, and was cleared
separately, as it was not part of BSS. The memset() in question was
dropped by that commit, but the __flush_wback_region() call remained.
As empty_zero_page[] has been moved to BSS, it can be treated as any
other BSS memory, and so the cache flush can be dropped.
