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.

Pull NOHZ updates from Thomas Gleixner:
- Fix a long standing TOCTOU in get_cpu_sleep_time_us()
- Make the CPU offline NOHZ handling more robust by disabling NOHZ on
the outgoing CPU early instead of creating unneeded state which needs
to be undone.
- Unify idle CPU time accounting instead of having two different
accounting mechanisms. These two different mechanisms are not really
independent, but the different properties can in the worst case cause
that gloabl idle time can be observed going backwards.
- Consolidate the idle/iowait time retrieval interfaces instead of
converting back and forth between them.
- Make idle interrupt time accounting more robust. The original code
assumes that interrupt time accouting is enabled and therefore stops
elapsing idle time while an interrupt is handled in NOHZ dyntick
state. That assumption is not correct as interrupt time accounting
can be disabled at compile and runtime.
- Fix an accounting error between dyntick idle time and dyntick idle
steal time. The stolen time is not accounted and therefore idle time
becomes inaccurate. The stolen time is now accounted after the fact
as there is no way to predict the steal time upfront.

canceled by using mod_delayed_work()
- Fix missing jiffies conversion in deferred_probe_extend_timeout()
- Guard timeout extension with delayed_work_pending() to prevent
premature firing
- Use system_percpu_wq instead of the deprecated system_wq
- Update deferred_probe_timeout documentation
device:
- Replace direct struct device bitfield access (can_match, dma_iommu,

- Move core device attributes to read-only memory
- Constify group array pointers in driver_add_groups() /
driver_remove_groups(), struct bus_type, and struct device_driver
device property:
- Fix fwnode reference leak in fwnode_graph_get_endpoint_by_id()
- Initialize all fields of fwnode_handle in fwnode_init()
- Provide swnode_get()/swnode_put() wrappers around kobject_get/put()
- Allow passing struct software_node_ref_args pointers directly to
PROPERTY_ENTRY_REF()
driver_override:
- Migrate amba, cdx, vmbus, and rpmsg to the generic driver_override
infrastructure, fixing a UAF from unsynchronized access to
driver_override in bus match() callbacks
- Remove the now-unused driver_set_override()
firmware loader:
- Fix recursive lock deadlock in device_cache_fw_images() when async
work falls back to synchronous execution
- Fix device reference leak in firmware_upload_register()
platform:
- Pass KBUILD_MODNAME through the platform driver registration macro
to create module symlinks in sysfs for built-in drivers; move
module_kset initialization to a pure_initcall and tegra cbb
registration to core_initcall to ensure correct ordering
- Pass THIS_MODULE implicitly through a coresight_init_driver() macro
sysfs:
- Upgrade OOB write detection in sysfs_kf_seq_show() from printk to
WARN
- Add return value clamping to sysfs_kf_read()
Rust:
- ACPI:
Fix missing match data for PRP0001 by exporting
acpi_of_match_device()
- Auxiliary:
Replace drvdata() with dedicated registration data on
auxiliary_device. drvdata() exposed the driver's bus device private
data beyond the driver's own scope, creating ordering constraints
and forcing the data to outlive all registrations that access it.
Registration data is instead scoped structurally to the
Registration object, making lifecycle ordering enforced by
construction rather than convention.
- Rust-native device driver lifetimes (HRT):
Allow Rust device drivers to carry a lifetime parameter on their
bus device private data, tied to the device binding scope -- the
interval during which a bus device is bound to a driver. Device
resources like pci::Bar<'a> and IoMem<'a> can be stored directly in
the driver's bus device private data with a lifetime bounded by the
binding scope, so the compiler enforces at build time that they do
not outlive the binding. This removes Devres indirection from every
access site and eliminates try_access() failure paths in
destructors.
Bus driver traits use a Generic Associated Type (GAT) Data<'bound>
to introduce the lifetime on the private data, rather than
parameterizing the Driver trait itself. Auxiliary registration
data, where the lifetime is not introduced by a trait callback but
must be threaded through Registration, uses the ForLt trait (a
type-level abstraction for types generic over a lifetime).
Misc:
- Fix DT overlayed devices not probing by reverting the broken
treewide overlay fix and re-running fw_devlink consumer pickup when
an overlay is applied to a bound device
- Use root_device_register() for faux bus root device; add sanity
check for failed bus init
- Fix dev_has_sync_state() data race with READ_ONCE() and move it to
base.h
- Avoid spurious device_links warning when removing a device while
its supplier is unbinding
- Switch ISA bus to dynamic root device
- Fix suspicious RCU usage in kernfs_put()
- Remove devcoredump exit callback
- Constify devfreq_event_class"

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"Features:
- Reduce pipe->mutex contention by pre-allocating pages outside the
lock in anon_pipe_write().
anon_pipe_write() called alloc_page() once per page while holding
pipe->mutex. The allocation can sleep doing direct reclaim and runs
memcg charging, which extends the critical section and stalls any
concurrent reader on the same mutex. Now up to 8 pages are
pre-allocated before the mutex is taken, leftovers are recycled
into the per-pipe tmp_page[] cache before unlock, and any remainder
is released after unlock, keeping the allocator out of the critical
section on both sides. On a writers x readers sweep with 64KB
writes against a 1 MB pipe throughput improves 6-28% and average
write latency drops 5-22%; under memory pressure - when the cost of
holding the mutex across reclaim is highest - throughput improves
21-48% and latency drops 17-33%. The microbenchmark is added to
selftests.
- uaccess/sockptr: fix the ignored_trailing logic in
copy_struct_to_user() to behave as documented and the usize check
in copy_struct_from_sockptr() for user pointers, and add
copy_struct_{from,to}_bounce_buffer() and copy_struct_to_sockptr()
helpers for upcoming users (IPPROTO_SMBDIRECT, IPPROTO_QUIC).
- bpf: add a sleepable bpf_real_inode() kfunc that resolves the real
inode backing a dentry via d_real_inode(). On overlayfs the inode
attached to the dentry doesn't carry the underlying device
information; this is used by the filesystem restriction BPF program
that was merged into systemd.
- docs: add guidelines for submitting new filesystems, motivated by
the maintenance burden abandoned and untestable filesystems impose
on VFS developers, blocking infrastructure work like folio
conversions and iomap migration.
Fixes:
- libfs: set SB_I_NOEXEC and SB_I_NODEV by default in init_pseudo()
and drop the now-redundant assignments in callers. This began as a
one-line dma-buf fix for a path_noexec() warning; a pseudo
filesystem has no reason not to set SB_I_NOEXEC. All init_pseudo()
callers were audited: the only visible effect is on dma-buf where
SB_I_NOEXEC silences the warning.
- Handle set_blocksize() failures in legacy filesystems (bfs, hpfs,
qnx4, jfs, befs, affs, isofs, minix, ntfs3, omfs). Mounting a
device with a sector size > PAGE_SIZE crashed roughly half of them;
the rest had the same missing error handling pattern. Plus a
follow-up releasing the superblock buffer_head when setting the
minix v3 block size fails.
- mount: honour SB_NOUSER in the new mount API.
- fs/fcntl: fix a SOFTIRQ-unsafe lock order in fasync signaling by
switching the process-group paths of send_sigio() and send_sigurg()
from read_lock(&tasklist_lock) to RCU, matching the single-PID
path.
- vfs: add an FS_USERNS_DELEGATABLE flag and set it for NFS, fixing
delegated NFS mounts (fsopen() in a container with the mount
performed by a privileged daemon) that broke when non-init
s_user_ns was tied to FS_USERNS_MOUNT.
- selftests/namespaces: fix a hang in nsid_test where an unreaped
grandchild kept the TAP pipe write-end open, a waitpid(-1) race in
listns_efault_test, and a false FAIL on kernels without listns()
where the tests should SKIP.
- filelock: fix the break_lease() stub signature for
CONFIG_FILE_LOCKING=n.
- init/initramfs_test: wait for the async initramfs unpacking before
running; the test and do_populate_rootfs() share the parser state.
- fs/coredump: reduce redundant log noise in
validate_coredump_safety().
- iomap: pass the correct length to fserror_report_io() in
__iomap_write_begin().
- backing-file: fix the backing_file_open() kerneldoc.
Cleanups:
- initramfs: refactor the cpio hex header parsing to use hex2bin()
instead of the hand-rolled simple_strntoul() which is reverted, and
extend the initramfs KUnit tests to cover header fields with 0x
prefixes.
- Replace __get_free_pages() and friends with kmalloc()/kzalloc()
across quota, proc, ocfs2/dlm, nilfs2, nfs, nfsd, libfs, jfs, jbd2,
isofs, fuse, select, namespace, configfs, binfmt_misc, bfs, and the
do_mounts init code - part of the larger work of replacing page
allocator calls with kmalloc().
- Use clear_and_wake_up_bit() in unlock_buffer() and
journal_end_buffer_io_sync() instead of open-coding the sequence.
- Drop unused VFS exports: unexport drop_super_exclusive(), remove
start_removing_user_path_at(), and fold __start_removing_path()
into start_removing_path().
- fs/read_write: narrow the __kernel_write() export with
EXPORT_SYMBOL_FOR_MODULES().
- vfs: uapi: retire octal and hex constants in favor of (1 << n) for
the O_ flags. Finding a free bit for a new flag across the
architectures was needlessly hard with the mixed bases.
- dcache: add extra sanity checks of dead dentries in dentry_free()
via a new DENTRY_WARN_ONCE() that also prints d_flags.
- iov_iter: use kmemdup_array() in dup_iter() to harden the
allocation against multiplication overflow.
- fs/pipe: write to ->poll_usage only once.
- vfs: remove an always-taken if-branch in find_next_fd().
- dcache: use kmalloc_flex() for struct external_name in __d_alloc().
- namei: use QSTR() instead of QSTR_INIT() in path_pts().
- sync_file_range: delete dead S_ISLNK code.
- Comment fixes: retire a stale comment in fget_task_next() and fix
assorted spelling mistakes"

Pull vfs inode updates from Christian Brauner:
"This extends the lockless ->i_count handling.
iput() could already decrement any value greater than one locklessly
but acquiring a reference always required taking inode->i_lock. Now
acquiring a reference is lockless as long as the count was already at
least 1, i.e., only the 0->1 and 1->0 transitions take the lock.
This avoids the lock for the common cases of nfs calling into the
inode hash and btrfs using igrab(). Cleanup-wise icount_read_once() is
added to line up with inode_state_read_once() and the open-coded
->i_count loads across the tree are converted, and ihold() is
relocated and tidied up.
On top of that some stale lock ordering annotations are retired from
the inode hash code: iunique() no longer takes the hash lock since the
inode hash became RCU-searchable and s_inode_list_lock is no longer
taken under the hash lock either"

A recent build failure[1] exposed the diffculty of working with the
current octal and hex definitions of O_ flags when trying to find a gap
for a new flag. This difficulty is compounded by the fact that O_ flags
may have architectural specific values.
Replace the hex/octal #defines, which are hard to parse when looking for
free bits, with explicit bit shifts like (1 << 11). Also, add comments
that identify which architectures redefine some of the seemingly free
("cursed") bits in uapi/asm-generic/fcntl.h. These should not be used to
define new O_ flags (for now, at least).
The translastion was done with Claude Opus 4.8, and verified with a
(non-AI) gawk script. The accounting of which architectures claim
which bit-gaps in uapi/asm-generic/fcntl.h is also done by hand.

Currently the tick subsystem stores the idle cputime accounting in
private fields, allowing cohabitation with architecture idle vtime
accounting. The former is fetched on online CPUs, the latter on offline
CPUs.
For consolidation purpose, architecture vtime accounting will continue
to account the cputime but will make a break when the idle tick is
stopped. The dyntick cputime accounting will then be relayed by the tick
subsystem so that the idle cputime is still seen advancing coherently
even when the tick isn't there to flush the idle vtime.
Prepare for that and introduce three new APIs which will be used in
subsequent patches:
- vtime_dynticks_start() is deemed to be called when idle enters in
dyntick mode. The idle cputime that elapsed so far is accumulated.
- vtime_dynticks_stop() is deemed to be called when idle exits from
dyntick mode. The vtime entry clocks are fast-forward to current time
so that idle accounting restarts elapsing from now.
- vtime_reset() is deemed to be called from dynticks idle IRQ entry to
fast-forward the clock to current time so that the IRQ time is still
accounted by vtime while nohz cputime is paused.
Also accumulated vtime won't be flushed from dyntick-idle ticks to avoid
accounting twice the idle cputime, along with nohz accounting.

The only remaining use of map_patch_area() is mapping the zero page, and
immediately unmapping it again so that the intermediate page table
levels are all guaranteed to be populated.
The use of the zero page here is completely arbitrary, and not harmful
per se, but currently, it creates a writable mapping, and does so in a
manner that requires that the empty_zero_page[] symbol is not
const-qualified.
Given that this is about to change, and that map_patch_area() now never
maps anything other than the zero page, let's simplify the code and
- remove the helpers and call [un]map_kernel_page() directly
- take the PA of empty_zero_page directly
- create a read-only temporary mapping.
This allows empty_zero_page[] to be repainted as const u8[] in a
subsequent patch, without making substantial changes to this code
patching logic.

On real hardware, panic and machine reboot may not flush hardware cache
to memory. This means the persistent ring buffer, which relies on a
coherent state of memory, may not have its events written to the buffer
and they may be lost. Moreover, there may be inconsistency with the
counters which are used for validation of the integrity of the
persistent ring buffer which may cause all data to be discarded.
To avoid this issue, stop recording of the ring buffer on panic and
flush the cache of the ring buffer's memory.

The mdacon driver supports using ISA MDA or Hercules-compatible display
adapters as a secondary text console. This was commonly used in the
1990s and earlier for debugging software which took over the primary
display. It is highly unlikely anyone is doing so nowadays because
serial consoles and much better methods of debugging exist.
The driver is not enabled by any defconfig, nor any of the
dozens of distro configs collected at [1]. It has been relegated to VTs
13-16 since commit 0b9cf3aa6b1e ("mdacon messing up default vc's - set
default to vc13-16 again") in Linux 2.6.27 (and before Linux 2.5.53 -
see the link in the message of the above commit). The change in 2.6.27
was done because it was incorrectly detecting non-MDA adapters as MDA
and taking over all VTs, rendering them unusable.
Furthermore, vgacon supports using MDA/Hercules-compatible adapters as
the primary text console, so any systems with only one of these
adapters were already using vgacon and will not experience any loss in
functionality from the removal of this driver.
Given all of these factors, the mdacon driver is likely entirely
unused. Remove it.

arch_irq_work_raise()

The crash occurs because arch_irq_work_raise() calls preempt_disable()
from machine check exception (MCE) handlers running in real mode. In
this context, accessing the preempt_count can fault, leading to the panic.
The preempt_disable()/preempt_enable() pair in arch_irq_work_raise()
was originally added by commit 0fe1ac48bef0 ("powerpc/perf_event: Fix
oops due to perf_event_do_pending call") to avoid races while raising
irq work from exception context.
Later, commit 471ba0e686cb ("irq_work: Do not raise an IPI when
queueing work on the local CPU") added preemption protection in
irq_work_queue() path, while commit 20b876918c06 ("irq_work: Use per
cpu atomics instead of regular atomics") added equivalent
protection in irq_work_queue_on() before reaching arch_irq_work_raise():
irq_work_queue() / irq_work_queue_on()
-> preempt_disable()
-> __irq_work_queue_local()
-> irq_work_raise()
-> arch_irq_work_raise()
As a result, callers other than mce_irq_work_raise() already execute
with preemption disabled, making the additional
preempt_disable()/preempt_enable() pair in arch_irq_work_raise()
redundant.
The arch_irq_work_raise() function executes in NMI context when called
from MCE handler. Hence we will not be preempted or scheduled out since
we are in NMI context with MSR[EE]=0. Therefore, it is safe to remove
the preempt_disable()/preempt_enable() calls from here.
Remove it to avoid accessing preempt_count from real mode context.

Four sysfs show() callbacks in hv-gpci take get_cpu_var(hv_gpci_reqb)
(which calls preempt_disable()) but only call the matching put_cpu_var()
on the error path under the 'out:' label. Every successful read leaks
one preempt_disable():
processor_bus_topology_show()
processor_config_show()
affinity_domain_via_virtual_processor_show()
affinity_domain_via_domain_show()
(affinity_domain_via_partition_show() was already correct.)
On a CONFIG_PREEMPT=y kernel, repeated reads raise preempt_count and
eventually return to userspace with preemption still disabled. The
next user-mode page fault then hits faulthandler_disabled() == 1,
gets forced to SIGSEGV, and the resulting coredump trips

The GUEST_STATE_BUFFER_TEST config option should default
to KUNIT_ALL_TESTS so that if all tests are enabled then
it is included, but currently the 'default KUNIT_ALL_TESTS'
statement is shadowed by 'def_tristate n',
meaning that this second default statement is currently dead code.
It looks to me like the commit
6ccbbc33f06a ("KVM: PPC: Add helper library for Guest State Buffers")
intended to set the default to KUNIT_ALL_TESTS, but mistakenly
missed the def_tristate.

results in many warnings along the lines of:

arch/powerpc/Makefile adds -DCC_USING_PATCHABLE_FUNCTION_ENTRY to
KBUILD_CPPFLAGS, which is inherited by the 32-bit vDSO. However, the
32-bit little endian target does not support
'-fpatchable-function-entry', resulting in the warnings above.
Remove -DCC_USING_PATCHABLE_FUNCTION_ENTRY from the 32-bit vDSO flags
when building with clang to avoid the warnings.

The core-book3s PMU sampling code validates the SIER TYPE field
when PERF_SAMPLE_DATA_SRC is requested. The SIER TYPE field
indicates the instruction type and is only valid for
random sampling (marked events). To handle cases observed where
SIER TYPE could be zero even for marked events,validation was
added to drop such samples and increment event->lost_samples.
However, this validation was applied to all samples,
including continuous sampling. In continuous sampling mode,
the PMU does not set the SIER TYPE field, so it remains zero.
As a result, valid continuous samples were incorrectly
treated as invalid and dropped. Fixed this by gating the
SIER TYPE validation with mark_event, so the check runs only
for marked (random) events. Continuous samples now skip this
check and are recorded normally in the final data recording path.

Allthough fsl,cpm1-gpio-irq-mask always contains a 16 bits value,
it is a standard u32 OF property as documented in
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/soc/fsl/cpm_qe/gpio.txt
The driver erroneously uses of_property_read_u16() leading to a
mask which is always 0.
Fix it by using of_property_read_u32() instead.

The kexec sequence invokes enter_vmx_ops() via copy_page() with the MMU
disabled. In this context, code must not rely on normal virtual address
translations or trigger page faults.
With KASAN enabled, functions get instrumented and may access shadow
memory using regular address translation. When executed with the MMU
off, this can lead to page faults (bad_page_fault) from which the
kernel cannot recover in the kexec path, resulting in a hang.
The kexec path sets preempt_count to HARDIRQ_OFFSET before entering
the MMU-off copy sequence.
current_thread_info()->preempt_count = HARDIRQ_OFFSET
kexec_sequence(..., copy_with_mmu_off = 1)
-> kexec_copy_flush(image)
copy_segments()
-> copy_page(dest, addr)
bl enter_vmx_ops()
if (in_interrupt())
return 0
beq .Lnonvmx_copy
Since kexec sets preempt_count to HARDIRQ_OFFSET, in_interrupt()
evaluates to true and enter_vmx_ops() returns early.
As in_interrupt() (and preempt_count()) are always inlined, mark
enter_vmx_ops() with __no_sanitize_address to avoid KASAN
instrumentation and shadow memory access with MMU disabled, helping
kexec boot fine with KASAN enabled.

KASAN instrumentation is intended to be disabled for the kexec core
code, but the existing Makefile entry misses the object suffix. As a
result, the flag is not applied correctly to core_$(BITS).o.
So when KASAN is enabled, kexec_copy_flush and copy_segments in
kexec/core_64.c are instrumented, which can result in accesses to
shadow memory via normal address translation paths. Since these run
with the MMU disabled, such accesses may trigger page faults
(bad_page_fault) that cannot be handled in the kdump path, ultimately
causing a hang and preventing the kdump kernel from booting. The same
is true for kexec as well, since the same functions are used there.
Update the entry to include the “.o” suffix so that KASAN
instrumentation is properly disabled for this object file.

copy_to_user() return bytes_not_copied to the user buffer. If there was
an error writing bytes into the user buffer, i.e. if copy_to_user
returns a non-zero value, then we should simply return -EFAULT from the
->read() call.
Otherwise, in the non-patched version, we may end up mixing
"bytes_not_copied + bytes_copied (HVPIPE_HDR_LEN)" as the return value
to the user in ->read() call
Also let's make sure we clear the hvpipe_status flag, if we have
consumed the hvpipe msg by making the rtas call. ret = -EFAULT means
copy_to_user has failed but that still means that the msg was read from
the hvpipe, hence for both cases, success & -EFAULT, we should clear the
HVPIPE_MSG_AVAILABLE flag in hvpipe_status.

Remove such 3 levels of nesting patterns to check success return values
from function calls.
ret = enable_hvpipe_IRQ()
if (!ret)
ret = set_hvpipe_sys_param(1)
if (!ret)
ret = misc_register()
Instead just bail out to "out*:" labels, in case of any error. This
simplifies the init flow.
While at it let's also fix the following error handling logic:
We have already enabled interrupt sources and enabled hvpipe to received
interrupts, if misc_register() fails, we will destroy the workqueue, but
the HMC might send us a msg via hvpipe which will call, queue work on
the workqueue which might be destroyed.
So instead, let's reverse the order of enabling set_hvpipe_sys_param(1)
and in case of an error let's remove the misc dev by calling
misc_deregister().

commit 6d3789d347a7 ("papr-hvpipe: convert papr_hvpipe_dev_create_handle() to FD_PREPARE()"),
changed the create handle to FD_PREPARE(), but it caused kernel
null-ptr-deref because after call to retain_and_null_ptr(src_info),
src_info is re-used for adding it to the global list.
Getting the following kernel panic in papr_hvpipe_dev_create_handle()
when trying to add src_info to the list.
Kernel attempted to write user page (0) - exploit attempt? (uid: 0)
BUG: Kernel NULL pointer dereference on write at 0x00000000
Faulting instruction address: 0xc0000000001b44a0
Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1]
...
Call Trace:
papr_hvpipe_dev_ioctl+0x1f4/0x48c (unreliable)
sys_ioctl+0x528/0x1064
system_call_exception+0x128/0x360
system_call_vectored_common+0x15c/0x2ec
Now, the error handling with FD_PREPARE's file cleanup and __free(kfree) auto
cleanup is getting too convoluted. This is mainly because we need to
ensure only 1 user get the srcID handle. To simplify this, we allocate
prepare the src_info in the beginning and add it to the global list
under a spinlock after checking that no duplicates exist.
This simplify the error handling where if the FD_ADD fails, we can
simply remove the src_info from the list and consume any pending msg in
hvpipe to be cleared, after src_info became visible in the global list.

The hdr variable is allocated on the stack and only hdr.version and
hdr.flags are initialized explicitly. Because the struct papr_hvpipe_hdr
contains reserved padding bytes (reserved[3] and reserved2[40]), these
could leak the uninitialized bytes to userspace after copy_to_user().
This patch fixes that by initializing the whole struct to 0.

hence needs to be freed in module exit.
Patch adds freeing of the memory in module exit. The change
also includes minor clean up for the variable name. The

to local variable name which is same as global variable
name for the memory buffers. Rename these local variable
