panic: add panic_force_cpu= parameter to redirect panic to a specific CPU
Some platforms require panic handling to execute on a specific CPU for crash dump to work reliably. This can be due to firmware limitations, interrupt routing constraints, or platform-specific requirements where only a single CPU is able to safely enter the crash kernel. Add the panic_force_cpu= kernel command-line parameter to redirect panic execution to a designated CPU. When the parameter is provided, the CPU that initially triggers panic forwards the panic context to the target CPU via IPI, which then proceeds with the normal panic and kexec flow. The IPI delivery is implemented as a weak function (panic_smp_redirect_cpu) so architectures with NMI support can override it for more reliable delivery. If the specified CPU is invalid, offline, or a panic is already in progress on another CPU, the redirection is skipped and panic continues on the current CPU.

watchdog: softlockup: panic when lockup duration exceeds N thresholds
The softlockup_panic sysctl is currently a binary option: panic immediately or never panic on soft lockups. Panicking on any soft lockup, regardless of duration, can be overly aggressive for brief stalls that may be caused by legitimate operations. Conversely, never panicking may allow severe system hangs to persist undetected. Extend softlockup_panic to accept an integer threshold, allowing the kernel to panic only when the normalized lockup duration exceeds N watchdog threshold periods. This provides finer-grained control to distinguish between transient delays and persistent system failures. The accepted values are: - 0: Don't panic (unchanged) - 1: Panic when duration >= 1 * threshold (20s default, original behavior) - N > 1: Panic when duration >= N * threshold (e.g., 2 = 40s, 3 = 60s.) The original behavior is preserved for values 0 and 1, maintaining full backward compatibility while allowing systems to tolerate brief lockups while still catching severe, persistent hangs.

dm-verity: add dm-verity keyring
Add a dedicated ".dm-verity" keyring for root hash signature verification, similar to the ".fs-verity" keyring used by fs-verity. By default the keyring is unused retaining the exact same old behavior. For systems that provision additional keys only intended for dm-verity images during boot, the dm_verity.keyring_unsealed=1 kernel parameter leaves the keyring open. We want to use this in systemd as a way add keys during boot that are only used for creating dm-verity devices for later mounting and nothing else. The discoverable disk image (DDI) spec at [1] heavily relies on dm-verity and we would like to expand this even more. This will allow us to do that in a fully backward compatible way. Once provisioning is complete, userspace restricts and activates it for dm-verity verification. If userspace fully seals the keyring then it gains the guarantee that no new keys can be added.

x86/acpi: Add acpi=spcr to use SPCR-provided default console
The SPCR provided console on x86 is only available as a boot console when
earlycon is provided on the kernel command line, and will not be present in
/proc/consoles.
While it's possible to retain the boot console with the keep_bootcon
parameter, that leaves the console using the less efficient 8250_early driver.
Users wanting to use the firmware suggested console (to avoid maintaining
unique serial console parameters for different server models in large fleets)
with the conventional driver have to parse the kernel log for the console
parameters and reinsert them.

x86/resctrl: Add energy/perf choices to rdt boot option
Legacy resctrl features are enumerated by X86_FEATURE_* flags. These may be overridden by quirks to disable features in the case of errata. Users can use kernel command line options to either disable a feature, or to force enable a feature that was disabled by a quirk. A different approach is needed for hardware features that do not have an X86_FEATURE_* flag. Update parsing of the "rdt=" boot parameter to call the telemetry driver directly to handle new "perf" and "energy" options that controls activation of telemetry monitoring of the named type. By itself a "perf" or "energy" option controls the forced enabling or disabling (with ! prefix) of all event groups of the named type. A ":guid" suffix allows for fine grained control per event group.

mm/mm_init: Introduce a boot parameter for check_pages
Use-after-free and double-free bugs can be very difficult to track down.
The kernel is good at tracking these and preventing bad pages from being
used/created through simple checks gated behind "check_pages_enabled".
Currently, the only ways to enable this flag is by building with
CONFIG_DEBUG_VM, or as a side effect of other checks such as
init_on_{alloc, free}, page_poisoning, or debug_pagealloc among others.
These solutions are powerful, but may often be too coarse in balancing
the performance vs. safety that a user may want, particularly in
latency-sensitive production environments.
Introduce a new boot parameter "check_pages", which enables page checking
with no other side effects. It takes kstrbool-able inputs as an argument
(i.e. 0/1, true/false, on/off, ...). This patch is backwards-compatible;
setting CONFIG_DEBUG_VM still enables page checking.

This has been another busy cycle for documentation, with a lot of
build-system thrashing. That work should slow down from here on out.
- The various scripts and tools for documentation were spread out in
several directories; now they are (almost) all coalesced under
tools/docs/. The holdout is the kernel-doc script, which cannot be
easily moved without some further thought.
- As the amount of Python code increases, we are accumulating modules that
are imported by multiple programs. These modules have been pulled
together under tools/lib/python/ -- at least, for documentation-related
programs. There is other Python code in the tree that might eventually
want to move toward this organization.
- The Perl kernel-doc.pl script has been removed. It is no longer used by
default, and nobody has missed it, least of all anybody who actually had
to look at it.
- The docs build was controlled by a complex mess of makefilese that few
dared to touch. Mauro has moved that logic into a new program
(tools/docs/sphinx-build-wrapper) that, with any luck at all, will be far
easier to understand and maintain.
- The get_feat.pl program, used to access information under
Documentation/features/, has been rewritten in Python, bringing an end to
the use of Perl in the docs subsystem.
- The top-level README file has been reorganized into a more
reader-friendly presentation.
- A lot of Chinese translation additions
- Typo fixes and documentation updates as usual

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"There are quite a few interesting things here, including new hardware
support, new features, some bug fixes and documentation updates. In
addition, there are a usual bunch of minor fixes and cleanups all
over.
In the new hardware support category, there are intel_pstate and
intel_rapl driver updates to support new processors, Panther Lake,
Wildcat Lake, Noval Lake, and Diamond Rapids in the OOB mode, OPP and
bandwidth allocation support in the tegra186 cpufreq driver, and
JH7110S SOC support in dt-platdev cpufreq.
The new features are the PM QoS CPU latency limit for suspend-to-idle,
the netlink support for the energy model management, support for
terminating system suspend via a wakeup event during the sync of file
systems, configurable number of hibernation compression threads, the
runtime PM auto-cleanup macros, and the "poweroff" PM event that is
expected to be used during system shutdown.
Bugs are mostly fixed in cpuidle governors, but there are also fixes
elsewhere, like in the amd-pstate cpufreq driver.
Documentation updates include, but are not limited to, a new doc on
debugging shutdown hangs, cross-referencing fixes and cleanups in the
intel_pstate documentation, and updates of comments in the core
hibernation code.
Specifics:
- Introduce and document a QoS limit on CPU exit latency during
wakeup from suspend-to-idle (Ulf Hansson)
- Add support for building libcpupower statically (Zuo An)
- Add support for sending netlink notifications to user space on

debugfs: Remove broken no-mount mode
debugfs access modes were added in Linux 5.10 (Dec 2020) [1], but the no-mount mode has behaved effectively the same as the off mode since Linux 5.12 (Apr 2021) [2]. The only difference is the specific error code returned by the debugfs_create_* functions, which is -ENOENT in no-mount mode and -EPERM in off mode. Given that no-mount hasn't worked for several years with no complaints, just remove it. [1] |

powerpc/64s/slb: Add no_slb_preload early cmdline param
no_slb_preload cmdline can come useful in quickly disabling and/or testing the performance impact of userspace slb preloads. Recently there was a slb multi-hit issue due to slb preload cache which was very difficult to triage. This cmdline option allows to quickly disable preloads and verify if the issue exists in preload cache or somewhere else. This can also be a useful option to see the effect of slb preloads for any application workload e.g. number of slb faults with or w/o slb preloads. with slb_preload: slb_faults (minimal initrd boot): 15 slb_faults (full systemd boot): 300 with no_slb_preload: slb_faults (minimal initrd boot): 33 slb_faults (full systemd boot): 138180 Signed-off-by: Ritesh Harjani (IBM) <ritesh.list@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Madhavan Srinivasan <maddy@linux.ibm.com> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/de484b55c45d831bc2db63945f455153c89a9a65.1761834163.git.ritesh.list@gmail.com |

hung_task: panic when there are more than N hung tasks at the same time
The hung_task_panic sysctl is currently a blunt instrument: it's all or nothing. Panicking on a single hung task can be an overreaction to a transient glitch. A more reliable indicator of a systemic problem is when multiple tasks hang simultaneously. Extend hung_task_panic to accept an integer threshold, allowing the kernel to panic only when N hung tasks are detected in a single scan. This provides finer control to distinguish between isolated incidents and system-wide failures. The accepted values are: - 0: Don't panic (unchanged) - 1: Panic on the first hung task (unchanged) - N > 1: Panic after N hung tasks are detected in a single scan The original behavior is preserved for values 0 and 1, maintaining full backward compatibility.

PM: hibernate: make compression threads configurable
The number of compression/decompression threads has a direct impact on
hibernate image generation and resume latency. Using more threads can
reduce overall resume time, but on systems with fewer CPU cores it may
also introduce contention and reduce efficiency.
Performance was evaluated on an 8-core ARM system, averaged over 10 runs:
Threads Hibernate(s) Resume(s)
--------------------------------
3 12.14 18.86
4 12.28 17.48
5 11.09 16.77
6 11.08 16.44
With 5–6 threads, resume latency improves by approximately 12% compared
to the default 3-thread configuration, with negligible impact on
hibernate time.
Introduce a new kernel parameter `hibernate_compression_threads=` that
allows users and integrators to tune the number of
compression/decompression threads at boot. This provides a way to
balance performance and CPU utilization across a wide range of hardware
without recompiling the kernel.

Generic:
* Rework almost all of KVM's exports to expose symbols only to KVM's x86
vendor modules (kvm-{amd,intel}.ko and PPC's kvm-{pr,hv}.ko.
x86:
* Rework almost all of KVM x86's exports to expose symbols only to KVM's
vendor modules, i.e. to kvm-{amd,intel}.ko.
* Add support for virtualizing Control-flow Enforcement Technology (CET) on
Intel (Shadow Stacks and Indirect Branch Tracking) and AMD (Shadow Stacks).
It's worth noting that while SHSTK and IBT can be enabled separately in CPUID,
it is not really possible to virtualize them separately. Therefore, Intel
processors will really allow both SHSTK and IBT under the hood if either is
made visible in the guest's CPUID. The alternative would be to intercept
XSAVES/XRSTORS, which is not feasible for performance reasons.
* Fix a variety of fuzzing WARNs all caused by checking L1 intercepts when
completing userspace I/O. KVM has already committed to allowing L2 to
to perform I/O at that point.
* Emulate PERF_CNTR_GLOBAL_STATUS_SET for PerfMonV2 guests, as the MSR is
supposed to exist for v2 PMUs.
* Allow Centaur CPU leaves (base 0xC000_0000) for Zhaoxin CPUs.
* Add support for the immediate forms of RDMSR and WRMSRNS, sans full
emulator support (KVM should never need to emulate the MSRs outside of
forced emulation and other contrived testing scenarios).
* Clean up the MSR APIs in preparation for CET and FRED virtualization, as
well as mediated vPMU support.
* Clean up a pile of PMU code in anticipation of adding support for mediated
vPMUs.
* Reject in-kernel IOAPIC/PIT for TDX VMs, as KVM can't obtain EOI vmexits
needed to faithfully emulate an I/O APIC for such guests.
* Many cleanups and minor fixes.
* Recover possible NX huge pages within the TDP MMU under read lock to
reduce guest jitter when restoring NX huge pages.
* Return -EAGAIN during prefault if userspace concurrently deletes/moves the
relevant memslot, to fix an issue where prefaulting could deadlock with the
memslot update.
x86 (AMD):
* Enable AVIC by default for Zen4+ if x2AVIC (and other prereqs) is supported.
* Require a minimum GHCB version of 2 when starting SEV-SNP guests via
KVM_SEV_INIT2 so that invalid GHCB versions result in immediate errors
instead of latent guest failures.
* Add support for SEV-SNP's CipherText Hiding, an opt-in feature that prevents
unauthorized CPU accesses from reading the ciphertext of SNP guest private
memory, e.g. to attempt an offline attack. This feature splits the shared
SEV-ES/SEV-SNP ASID space into separate ranges for SEV-ES and SEV-SNP guests,
therefore a new module parameter is needed to control the number of ASIDs
that can be used for VMs with CipherText Hiding vs. how many can be used to
run SEV-ES guests.
* Add support for Secure TSC for SEV-SNP guests, which prevents the untrusted
host from tampering with the guest's TSC frequency, while still allowing the
the VMM to configure the guest's TSC frequency prior to launch.
* Validate the XCR0 provided by the guest (via the GHCB) to avoid bugs
resulting from bogus XCR0 values.
* Save an SEV guest's policy if and only if LAUNCH_START fully succeeds to
avoid leaving behind stale state (thankfully not consumed in KVM).
* Explicitly reject non-positive effective lengths during SNP's LAUNCH_UPDATE
instead of subtly relying on guest_memfd to deal with them.
* Reload the pre-VMRUN TSC_AUX on #VMEXIT for SEV-ES guests, not the host's
desired TSC_AUX, to fix a bug where KVM was keeping a different vCPU's
TSC_AUX in the host MSR until return to userspace.
KVM (Intel):
* Preparation for FRED support.
* Don't retry in TDX's anti-zero-step mitigation if the target memslot is
invalid, i.e. is being deleted or moved, to fix a deadlock scenario similar
to the aforementioned prefaulting case.
* Misc bugfixes and minor cleanups.

- Rework almost all of KVM x86's exports to expose symbols only to
KVM's vendor modules, i.e. to kvm-{amd,intel}.ko
- Add support for virtualizing Control-flow Enforcement Technology
(CET) on Intel (Shadow Stacks and Indirect Branch Tracking) and AMD
(Shadow Stacks).
It is worth noting that while SHSTK and IBT can be enabled
separately in CPUID, it is not really possible to virtualize them
separately. Therefore, Intel processors will really allow both
SHSTK and IBT under the hood if either is made visible in the
guest's CPUID. The alternative would be to intercept
XSAVES/XRSTORS, which is not feasible for performance reasons
- Fix a variety of fuzzing WARNs all caused by checking L1 intercepts
when completing userspace I/O. KVM has already committed to
allowing L2 to to perform I/O at that point
- Emulate PERF_CNTR_GLOBAL_STATUS_SET for PerfMonV2 guests, as the
MSR is supposed to exist for v2 PMUs
- Allow Centaur CPU leaves (base 0xC000_0000) for Zhaoxin CPUs
- Add support for the immediate forms of RDMSR and WRMSRNS, sans full
emulator support (KVM should never need to emulate the MSRs outside
of forced emulation and other contrived testing scenarios)
- Clean up the MSR APIs in preparation for CET and FRED
virtualization, as well as mediated vPMU support
- Clean up a pile of PMU code in anticipation of adding support for
mediated vPMUs
- Reject in-kernel IOAPIC/PIT for TDX VMs, as KVM can't obtain EOI
vmexits needed to faithfully emulate an I/O APIC for such guests
- Many cleanups and minor fixes
- Recover possible NX huge pages within the TDP MMU under read lock
to reduce guest jitter when restoring NX huge pages
- Return -EAGAIN during prefault if userspace concurrently
deletes/moves the relevant memslot, to fix an issue where
prefaulting could deadlock with the memslot update
x86 (AMD):
- Enable AVIC by default for Zen4+ if x2AVIC (and other prereqs) is
supported
- Require a minimum GHCB version of 2 when starting SEV-SNP guests
via KVM_SEV_INIT2 so that invalid GHCB versions result in immediate
errors instead of latent guest failures
- Add support for SEV-SNP's CipherText Hiding, an opt-in feature that
prevents unauthorized CPU accesses from reading the ciphertext of
SNP guest private memory, e.g. to attempt an offline attack. This
feature splits the shared SEV-ES/SEV-SNP ASID space into separate
ranges for SEV-ES and SEV-SNP guests, therefore a new module
parameter is needed to control the number of ASIDs that can be used
for VMs with CipherText Hiding vs. how many can be used to run
SEV-ES guests
- Add support for Secure TSC for SEV-SNP guests, which prevents the
untrusted host from tampering with the guest's TSC frequency, while
still allowing the the VMM to configure the guest's TSC frequency
prior to launch
- Validate the XCR0 provided by the guest (via the GHCB) to avoid
bugs resulting from bogus XCR0 values
- Save an SEV guest's policy if and only if LAUNCH_START fully
succeeds to avoid leaving behind stale state (thankfully not
consumed in KVM)
- Explicitly reject non-positive effective lengths during SNP's
LAUNCH_UPDATE instead of subtly relying on guest_memfd to deal with
them
- Reload the pre-VMRUN TSC_AUX on #VMEXIT for SEV-ES guests, not the
host's desired TSC_AUX, to fix a bug where KVM was keeping a
different vCPU's TSC_AUX in the host MSR until return to userspace
KVM (Intel):
- Preparation for FRED support
- Don't retry in TDX's anti-zero-step mitigation if the target
memslot is invalid, i.e. is being deleted or moved, to fix a
deadlock scenario similar to the aforementioned prefaulting case
- Misc bugfixes and minor cleanups"

It has been a relatively busy cycle in docsland, with changes all over:
- Bring the kernel memory-model docs into the Sphinx build in the "literal
include" mode.
- Lots of build-infrastructure work, further cleaning up long-term
kernel-doc technical debt. The sphinx-pre-install tool has been
converted to Python and updated for current systems.
- A new tool to detect when documents have been moved and generate HTML
redirects; this can be used on kernel.org (or any other site hosting the
rendered docs) to avoid breaking links.
- Automated processing of the YAML files describing the netlink protocol.
- A significant update of the maintainer's PGP guide.
...and a seemingly endless series of typo fixes, build-problem fixes, etc.

A set of updates for the interrupt core subsystem:
- Introduce irq_chip_[startup|shutdown]_parent() to prepare for
addressing a few short comings in the PCI/MSI interrupt subsystem.
It allows to utilize the interrupt chip startup/shutdown callbacks for
initializing the interrupt chip hierarchy properly on certain RISCV
implementations and provides a mechanism to reduce the overhead of
masking and unmasking PCI/MSI interrupts during operation when the
underlying MSI provider can mask the interrupt.
The actual usage comes with the interrupt driver pull request.
- Add generic error handling for devm_request_*_irq()
This allows to remove the zoo of random error printk's all over the
usage sites.
- Add a mechanism to warn about long-running interrupt handlers
Long running interrupt handlers can introduce latencies and tracking
them down is a tedious task. The tracking has to be enabled with a
threshold on the kernel command line and utilizes a static branch to
remove the overhead when disabled.
- Update and extend the selftests which validate the CPU hotplug
interrupt migration logic
- Allow dropping the per CPU softirq lock on PREEMPT_RT kernels, which
causes contention and latencies all over the place.
The serialization requirements have been pushed down into the actual
affected usage sites already.
- The usual small cleanups and improvements

KVM SEV-SNP CipherText Hiding support for 6.18
Add support for SEV-SNP's CipherText Hiding, an opt-in feature that prevents unauthorized CPU accesses from reading the ciphertext of SNP guest private memory, e.g. to attempt an offline attack. Instead of ciphertext, the CPU will always read back all FFs when CipherText Hiding is enabled. Add new module parameter to the KVM module to enable CipherText Hiding and control the number of ASIDs that can be used for VMs with CipherText Hiding, which is in effect the number of SNP VMs. When CipherText Hiding is enabled, the hared SEV-ES/SEV-SNP ASID space is split into separate ranges for SEV-ES and SEV-SNP guests, i.e. ASIDs that can be used for CipherText Hiding cannot be used to run SEV-ES guests. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAABCgAdFiEEKTobbabEP7vbhhN9OlYIJqCjN/0FAmjXG0EACgkQOlYIJqCj N/1TKQ//UlPcGwoR9cl9V5YRz0b+wNOHNh7JqOTdQsEa00qqIXaAnK+M77Jynvmj YqnQbFCxnQS2pQWkSKv3eJ9Kc9ndTBA7+lL3rrHot6ccks3xM0cHe8Bquu8Of/Ht 1qla1OazrYjJBjFdYCzO+ZQdUvSNAr5RkOPO1KrnHZPELPOQt0+LbxlewRRbKHIj hea8KgmRqmlRJYDJlOGh+G/FFDCFqaeXyOfEkeBuYyCAL60r+0IMHKMwrwlDx/1+ Kzlrf65YuMZlgg7AjhA2mXj4DvlSQkPnMkmkNmNgPXI1XNgHDS/7M1f2m/QbgGV8 Y1D1/GY5u5YD30zDHCmmqPocs5sxrsVoAH8cHalMQsiDlr/HfoKlQ+w0aHEQnHFJ j4GnfCIkyx77tPHeS8e8RJk8qXs+0Bf2bzOAQkv0f/k6JaWhiLzISTFOTyztaf8v m7gPWJORWGZyWVBk+Ad+KGh5Ww2o+sY3aufp81JBT12kC17G0xsHrO1XvUV6YDQ7 wSINQap0TQFY2Lh9Vr1GDNx4jk+YnQOjqKbqd6efyv8No4+j75eaCkbAItma9YVc EPGYa+LaRoC58f7LIChT0uXTAkK7lgdAuGwice7CPsRTjPJqxneIL7u6ohO9jAkz EysFgzsozLynnVUPmXqf5SDots1G5RrAne8Bj+6tLaGxCjW+lLI= =mc41 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'kvm-x86-ciphertext-6.18' of https://github.com/kvm-x86/linux into HEAD KVM SEV-SNP CipherText Hiding support for 6.18 Add support for SEV-SNP's CipherText Hiding, an opt-in feature that prevents unauthorized CPU accesses from reading the ciphertext of SNP guest private memory, e.g. to attempt an offline attack.

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the usual selections of misc updates for this cycle.
Features:
- Add "initramfs_options" parameter to set initramfs mount options.
This allows to add specific mount options to the rootfs to e.g.,
limit the memory size
- Add RWF_NOSIGNAL flag for pwritev2()
Add RWF_NOSIGNAL flag for pwritev2. This flag prevents the SIGPIPE
signal from being raised when writing on disconnected pipes or
sockets. The flag is handled directly by the pipe filesystem and
converted to the existing MSG_NOSIGNAL flag for sockets
- Allow to pass pid namespace as procfs mount option
Ever since the introduction of pid namespaces, procfs has had very
implicit behaviour surrounding them (the pidns used by a procfs
mount is auto-selected based on the mounting process's active
pidns, and the pidns itself is basically hidden once the mount has
been constructed)
This implicit behaviour has historically meant that userspace was
required to do some special dances in order to configure the pidns
of a procfs mount as desired. Examples include:
* In order to bypass the mnt_too_revealing() check, Kubernetes
creates a procfs mount from an empty pidns so that user
namespaced containers can be nested (without this, the nested
containers would fail to mount procfs)
But this requires forking off a helper process because you cannot
just one-shot this using mount(2)
* Container runtimes in general need to fork into a container
before configuring its mounts, which can lead to security issues
in the case of shared-pidns containers (a privileged process in
the pidns can interact with your container runtime process)
While SUID_DUMP_DISABLE and user namespaces make this less of an
issue, the strict need for this due to a minor uAPI wart is kind
of unfortunate
Things would be much easier if there was a way for userspace to
just specify the pidns they want. So this pull request contains
changes to implement a new "pidns" argument which can be set
using fsconfig(2):
fsconfig(procfd, FSCONFIG_SET_FD, "pidns", NULL, nsfd);
fsconfig(procfd, FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "pidns", "/proc/self/ns/pid", 0);
or classic mount(2) / mount(8):
// mount -t proc -o pidns=/proc/self/ns/pid proc /tmp/proc
mount("proc", "/tmp/proc", "proc", MS_..., "pidns=/proc/self/ns/pid");
Cleanups:
- Remove the last references to EXPORT_OP_ASYNC_LOCK
- Make file_remove_privs_flags() static
- Remove redundant __GFP_NOWARN when GFP_NOWAIT is used
- Use try_cmpxchg() in start_dir_add()
- Use try_cmpxchg() in sb_init_done_wq()
- Replace offsetof() with struct_size() in ioctl_file_dedupe_range()
- Remove vfs_ioctl() export
- Replace rwlock() with spinlock in epoll code as rwlock causes
priority inversion on preempt rt kernels
- Make ns_entries in fs/proc/namespaces const
- Use a switch() statement() in init_special_inode() just like we do
in may_open()
- Use struct_size() in dir_add() in the initramfs code
- Use str_plural() in rd_load_image()
- Replace strcpy() with strscpy() in find_link()
- Rename generic_delete_inode() to inode_just_drop() and
generic_drop_inode() to inode_generic_drop()
- Remove unused arguments from fcntl_{g,s}et_rw_hint()
Fixes:
- Document @name parameter for name_contains_dotdot() helper
- Fix spelling mistake
- Always return zero from replace_fd() instead of the file descriptor
number
- Limit the size for copy_file_range() in compat mode to prevent a
signed overflow
- Fix debugfs mount options not being applied
- Verify the inode mode when loading it from disk in minixfs
- Verify the inode mode when loading it from disk in cramfs
- Don't trigger automounts with RESOLVE_NO_XDEV
If openat2() was called with RESOLVE_NO_XDEV it didn't traverse
through automounts, but could still trigger them
- Add FL_RECLAIM flag to show_fl_flags() macro so it appears in
tracepoints
- Fix unused variable warning in rd_load_image() on s390

arm64: mm: Rework the 'rodata=' options
As per admin guide documentation, "rodata=on" should be the default on
platforms. Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt describes
these options as
rodata= [KNL,EARLY]
on Mark read-only kernel memory as read-only (default).
off Leave read-only kernel memory writable for debugging.
full Mark read-only kernel memory and aliases as read-only
[arm64]
But on arm64 platform, RODATA_FULL_DEFAULT_ENABLED is enabled by default,
so "rodata=full" is the default instead.
For parity with other architectures, namely x86, rework 'rodata=on' to
match the current "full" behaviour and replace 'rodata=full' with a new
'rodata=noalias' option which retains writable aliases in the direct map
for memory regions outside of the kernel image.

KVM: SEV: Add SEV-SNP CipherTextHiding support
Ciphertext hiding prevents host accesses from reading the ciphertext of SNP guest private memory. Instead of reading ciphertext, the host reads will see constant default values (0xff). The SEV ASID space is split into SEV and SEV-ES/SEV-SNP ASID ranges. Enabling ciphertext hiding further splits the SEV-ES/SEV-SNP ASID space into separate ASID ranges for SEV-ES and SEV-SNP guests. Add a new off-by-default kvm-amd module parameter to enable ciphertext hiding and allow the admin to configure the SEV-ES and SEV-SNP ASID ranges. Simply cap the maximum SEV-SNP ASID as appropriate, i.e. don't reject loading KVM or disable ciphertest hiding for a too-big value, as KVM's general approach for module params is to sanitize inputs based on hardware/kernel support, not burn the world down. This also allows the admin to use -1u to assign all SEV-ES/SNP ASIDs to SNP without needing dedicated handling in KVM.

fs: Add 'initramfs_options' to set initramfs mount options
When CONFIG_TMPFS is enabled, the initial root filesystem is a tmpfs. By default, a tmpfs mount is limited to using 50% of the available RAM for its content. This can be problematic in memory-constrained environments, particularly during a kdump capture. In a kdump scenario, the capture kernel boots with a limited amount of memory specified by the 'crashkernel' parameter. If the initramfs is large, it may fail to unpack into the tmpfs rootfs due to insufficient space. This is because to get X MB of usable space in tmpfs, 2*X MB of memory must be available for the mount. This leads to an OOM failure during the early boot process, preventing a successful crash dump. This patch introduces a new kernel command-line parameter, initramfs_options, which allows passing specific mount options directly to the rootfs when it is first mounted. This gives users control over the rootfs behavior. For example, a user can now specify initramfs_options=size=75% to allow the tmpfs to use up to 75% of the available memory. This can significantly reduce the memory pressure for kdump. Consider a practical example: To unpack a 48MB initramfs, the tmpfs needs 48MB of usable space. With the default 50% limit, this requires a memory pool of 96MB to be available for the tmpfs mount. The total memory requirement is therefore approximately: 16MB (vmlinuz) + 48MB (loaded initramfs) + 48MB (unpacked kernel) + 96MB (for tmpfs) + 12MB (runtime overhead) ≈ 220MB. By using initramfs_options=size=75%, the memory pool required for the 48MB tmpfs is reduced to 48MB / 0.75 = 64MB. This reduces the total memory requirement by 32MB (96MB - 64MB), allowing the kdump to succeed with a smaller crashkernel size, such as 192MB. An alternative approach of reusing the existing rootflags parameter was considered. However, a new, dedicated initramfs_options parameter was chosen to avoid altering the current behavior of rootflags (which applies to the final root filesystem) and to prevent any potential regressions. Also add documentation for the new kernel parameter "initramfs_options" This approach is inspired by prior discussions and patches on the topic.

Significant patch series in this pull request:
- The 2 patch series "squashfs: Remove page->mapping references" from
Matthew Wilcox gets us closer to being able to remove page->mapping.
- The 5 patch series "relayfs: misc changes" from Jason Xing does some
maintenance and minor feature addition work in relayfs.
- The 5 patch series "kdump: crashkernel reservation from CMA" from Jiri
Bohac switches us from static preallocation of the kdump crashkernel's
working memory over to dynamic allocation. So the difficulty of
a-priori estimation of the second kernel's needs is removed and the
first kernel obtains extra memory.
- The 5 patch series "generalize panic_print's dump function to be used
by other kernel parts" from Feng Tang implements some consolidation and
rationalizatio of the various ways in which a faiing kernel splats
information at the operator.

stackdepot: make max number of pools boot-time configurable
We're hitting the WARN in depot_init_pool() about reaching the stack depot limit because we have long stacks that don't dedup very well. Introduce a new start-up parameter to allow users to set the number of maximum stack depot pools.

Scheduler updates for v6.17:
Core scheduler changes:
- Better tracking of maximum lag of tasks in presence of different
slices duration, for better handling of lag in the fair
scheduler. (Vincent Guittot)
- Clean up and standardize #if/#else/#endif markers throughout
the entire scheduler code base (Ingo Molnar)
- Make SMP unconditional: build the SMP scheduler's
data structures and logic on UP kernel too, even though
they are not used, to simplify the scheduler and remove
around 200 #ifdef/[#else]/#endif blocks from the
scheduler. (Ingo Molnar)
- Reorganize cgroup bandwidth control interface handling
for better interfacing with sched_ext (Tejun Heo)
Balancing:
- Bump sd->max_newidle_lb_cost when newidle balance fails (Chris Mason)
- Remove sched_domain_topology_level::flags to simplify the code (Prateek Nayak)
- Simplify and clean up build_sched_topology() (Li Chen)
- Optimize build_sched_topology() on large machines (Li Chen)
Real-time scheduling:
- Add initial version of proxy execution: a mechanism for mutex-owning
tasks to inherit the scheduling context of higher priority waiters.
Currently limited to a single runqueue and conditional on CONFIG_EXPERT,
and other limitations. (John Stultz, Peter Zijlstra, Valentin Schneider)
- Deadline scheduler (Juri Lelli):
- Fix dl_servers initialization order (Juri Lelli)
- Fix DL scheduler's root domain reinitialization logic (Juri Lelli)
- Fix accounting bugs after global limits change (Juri Lelli)
- Fix scalability regression by implementing less agressive dl_server handling
(Peter Zijlstra)
PSI:
- Improve scalability by optimizing psi_group_change() cpu_clock() usage
(Peter Zijlstra)
Rust changes:
- Make Task, CondVar and PollCondVar methods inline to avoid unnecessary
function calls (Kunwu Chan, Panagiotis Foliadis)
- Add might_sleep() support for Rust code: Rust's "#[track_caller]"
mechanism is used so that Rust's might_sleep() doesn't need to be
defined as a macro (Fujita Tomonori)
- Introduce file_from_location() (Boqun Feng)
Debugging & instrumentation:
- Make clangd usable with scheduler source code files again (Peter Zijlstra)
- tools: Add root_domains_dump.py which dumps root domains info (Juri Lelli)
- tools: Add dl_bw_dump.py for printing bandwidth accounting info (Juri Lelli)
Misc cleanups & fixes:
- Remove play_idle() (Feng Lee)
- Fix check_preemption_disabled() (Sebastian Andrzej Siewior)
- Do not call __put_task_struct() on RT if pi_blocked_on is set
(Luis Claudio R. Goncalves)

Updates for interrupt chip drivers:
- Add support of forced affinity setting to yet offline CPUs for the
MIPS-GIC to ensure that the affinity of per CPU interrupts can be set
during the early bringup phase of a secondary CPU in the hotplug code
before the CPU is set online and interrupts are enabled.\
- Add support for the MIPS (RISC-V !?!?) P8700 SoC in the ACLINT_SSWI
interrupt chip
- Make the interrupt routing to RISV-V harts specification compliant so it
supports arbitrary hart indices
- Add a command line parameter and related handling to disable the generic
RISCV IMSIC mechanism on platforms which use a trap-emulated IMSIC.
Unfortunatly this is required because there is no mechanism available to
discover this programatically.
- Enable wakeup sources on the Renesas RZV2H driver
- Convert interrupt chip drivers, which use a open coded variant of
msi_create_parent_irq_domain() to use the new functionality
- Convert interrupt chip drivers, which use the old style two level
implementation of MSI support over to the MSI parent mechanism to
prepare for removing at least one of the three PCI/MSI backend variants.
- The usual cleanups and improvements all over the place

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"As is tradition, cpufreq is the part with the largest number of
updates that include core fixes and cleanups as well as updates of
several assorted drivers, but there are also quite a few updates
related to system sleep, mostly focused on asynchronous suspend and
resume of devices and on making the integration of system suspend
and resume with runtime PM easier.
Runtime PM is also updated to allow some code duplication in drivers
to be eliminated going forward and to work more consistently overall
in some cases.
Apart from that, there are some driver core updates related to PM
domains that should help to address ordering issues with devm_ cleanup
routines relying on PM domains, some assorted devfreq updates
including core fixes and cleanups, tooling updates, and documentation
and MAINTAINERS updates.

tpm_crb_ffa: handle tpm busy return code
Platforms supporting direct message request v2 [1] can support secure partitions that support multiple services. For CRB over FF-A interface, if the firmware TPM or TPM service [1] shares its Secure Partition (SP) with another service, message requests may fail with a -EBUSY error. To handle this, replace the single check and call with a retry loop that attempts the TPM message send operation until it succeeds or a configurable timeout is reached. Implement a _try_send_receive function to do a single send/receive and modify the existing send_receive to add this retry loop. The retry mechanism introduces a module parameter (`busy_timeout_ms`, default: 2000ms) to control how long to keep retrying on -EBUSY responses. Between retries, the code waits briefly (50-100 microseconds) to avoid busy-waiting and handling TPM BUSY conditions more gracefully. The parameter can be modified at run-time as such: echo 3000 | tee /sys/module/tpm_crb_ffa/parameters/busy_timeout_ms This changes the timeout from the default 2000ms to 3000ms.

panic: clean up code for console replay
Patch series "generalize panic_print's dump function to be used by other kernel parts", v3. When working on kernel stability issues, panic, task-hung and software/hardware lockup are frequently met. And to debug them, user may need lots of system information at that time, like task call stacks, lock info, memory info etc. panic case already has panic_print_sys_info() for this purpose, and has a 'panic_print' bitmask to control what kinds of information is needed, which is also helpful to debug other task-hung and lockup cases. So this patchset extracts the function out to a new file 'lib/sys_info.c', and makes it available for other cases which also need to dump system info for debugging. Also as suggested by Petr Mladek, add 'panic_sys_info=' interface to take human readable string like "tasks,mem,locks,timers,ftrace,....", and eventually obsolete the current 'panic_print' bitmap interface. In RFC and V1 version, hung_task and SW/HW watchdog modules are enabled with the new sys_info dump interface. In v2, they are kept out for better review of current change, and will be posted later. Locally these have been used in our bug chasing for stability issues and was proven helpful. Many thanks to Petr Mladek for great suggestions on both the code and architectures! This patch (of 5): Currently the panic_print_sys_info() was called twice with different parameters to handle console replay case, which is kind of confusing. Add panic_console_replay() explicitly and rename 'PANIC_PRINT_ALL_PRINTK_MSG' to 'PANIC_CONSOLE_REPLAY', to make the code straightforward. The related kernel document is also updated.

irqchip/riscv-imsic: Add kernel parameter to disable IPIs
When injecting IPIs to a set of harts, the IMSIC IPI support will do a separate MMIO write to the SETIPNUM_LE register of each target hart. This means on a platform where IMSIC is trap-n-emulated, there will be N MMIO traps when injecting IPI to N target harts hence IMSIC IPIs will be slow on such platforms compared to the SBI IPI extension. Unfortunately, there is no DT, ACPI, or any other way of discovering whether the underlying IMSIC is trap-n-emulated. Using MMIO write to the SETIPNUM_LE register for injecting IPI is purely a software choice in the IMSIC driver hence add a kernel parameter to allow users to disable IMSIC IPIs on platforms with trap-n-emulated IMSIC.

Documentation/x86: Document new attack vector controls
Document the 5 new attack vector command line options, how they interact with existing vulnerability controls, and recommendations on when they can be disabled. Note that while mitigating against untrusted userspace requires both user-to-kernel and user-to-user protection, these are kept separate. The kernel can control what code executes inside of it and that may affect the risk associated with vulnerabilities especially if new kernel mitigations are implemented. The same isn't typically true of userspace. In other words, the risk associated with user-to-user or guest-to-guest attacks is unlikely to change over time. While the risk associated with user-to-kernel or guest-to-host attacks may change. Therefore, these controls are separated.

PM: sleep: add kernel parameter to disable asynchronous suspend/resume
On some platforms, device dependencies are not properly represented by device links, which can cause issues when asynchronous power management is enabled. While it is possible to disable this via sysfs, doing so at runtime can race with the first system suspend event. This patch introduces a kernel command-line parameter, "pm_async", which can be set to "off" to globally disable asynchronous suspend and resume operations from early boot. It effectively provides a way to set the initial value of the existing pm_async sysfs knob at boot time. This offers a robust method to fall back to synchronous (sequential) operation, which can stabilize platforms with problematic dependencies and also serve as a useful debugging tool. The default behavior remains unchanged (asynchronous enabled). To disable it, boot the kernel with the "pm_async=off" parameter.

ima: add a knob ima= to allow disabling IMA in kdump kernel
Kdump kernel doesn't need IMA functionality, and enabling IMA will cost extra memory. It would be very helpful to allow IMA to be disabled for kdump kernel. Hence add a knob ima=on|off here to allow turning IMA off in kdump kernel if needed. Note that this IMA disabling is limited to kdump kernel, please don't abuse it in other kernel and thus serious consequences are caused.

slab: Decouple slab_debug and no_hash_pointers
Some system owners use slab_debug=FPZ (or similar) as a hardening option,
but do not want to be forced into having kernel addresses exposed due
to the implicit "no_hash_pointers" boot param setting.[1]
Introduce the "hash_pointers" boot param, which defaults to "auto"
(the current behavior), but also includes "always" (forcing on hashing
even when "slab_debug=..." is defined), and "never". The existing
"no_hash_pointers" boot param becomes an alias for "hash_pointers=never".
This makes it possible to boot with "slab_debug=FPZ hash_pointers=always".

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"Once again, the changes are dominated by cpufreq updates, but this
time the majority of them are cpufreq core changes, mostly related to
the introduction of policy locking guards and __free() usage, and
fixes related to boost handling.
Still, there is also a significant update of the intel_pstate driver
making it register an energy model when running on a hybrid platform
which is used for enabling energy-aware scheduling (EAS) if the driver
operates in the passive mode (and schedutil is used as the cpufreq
governor for all CPUs which is the passive mode default).
There are some amd-pstate driver updates too, for a good measure,
including the "Requested CPU Min frequency" BIOS option support and
new online/offline callbacks.
In the cpuidle space, the most significant change is the addition of a
C1 demotion on/off sysfs knob to intel_idle which should help some
users to configure their systems more precisely. There is also the
conversion of the PSCI cpuidle driver to a faux device one and there
are two small updates of cpuidle governors.
Device power management is also modified quite a bit, especially the
handling of devices with asynchronous suspend and resume enabled
during system transitions. They are now going to be handled more
asynchronously during suspend transitions and somewhat less
aggressively during resume transitions.
Apart from the above, the operating performance points (OPP) library
is now going to use mutex locking guards and scope-based cleanup
helpers and there is the usual bunch of assorted fixes and code
cleanups.
Specifics:
- Fix potential division-by-zero error in em_compute_costs() (Yaxiong
Tian)
- Fix typos in energy model documentation and example driver code
(Moon Hee Lee, Atul Kumar Pant)
- Rearrange the energy model management code and add a new function
for adjusting a CPU energy model after adjusting the capacity of
the given CPU to it (Rafael Wysocki)
- Refactor cpufreq_online(), add and use cpufreq policy locking
guards, use __free() in policy reference counting, and clean up
core cpufreq code on top of that (Rafael Wysocki)
- Fix boost handling on CPU suspend/resume and sysfs updates (Viresh
Kumar)
- Fix des_perf clamping with max_perf in amd_pstate_update()
(Dhananjay Ugwekar)
- Add offline, online and suspend callbacks to the amd-pstate driver,
rename and use the existing amd_pstate_epp callbacks in it
(Dhananjay Ugwekar)
- Add support for the "Requested CPU Min frequency" BIOS option to
the amd-pstate driver (Dhananjay Ugwekar)
- Reset amd-pstate driver mode after running selftests (Swapnil
Sapkal)
- Avoid shadowing ret in amd_pstate_ut_check_driver() (Nathan
Chancellor)
- Add helper for governor checks to the schedutil cpufreq governor
and move cpufreq-specific EAS checks to cpufreq (Rafael Wysocki)
- Populate the cpu_capacity sysfs entries from the intel_pstate
driver after registering asym capacity support (Ricardo Neri)
- Add support for enabling Energy-aware scheduling (EAS) to the
intel_pstate driver when operating in the passive mode on a hybrid
platform (Rafael Wysocki)
- Drop redundant cpus_read_lock() from store_local_boost() in the
cpufreq core (Seyediman Seyedarab)
- Replace sscanf() with kstrtouint() in the cpufreq code and use a
symbol instead of a raw number in it (Bowen Yu)
- Add support for autonomous CPU performance state selection to the
CPPC cpufreq driver (Lifeng Zheng)
- OPP: Add dev_pm_opp_set_level() (Praveen Talari)
- Introduce scope-based cleanup headers and mutex locking guards in
OPP core (Viresh Kumar)
- Switch OPP to use kmemdup_array() (Zhang Enpei)
- Optimize bucket assignment when next_timer_ns equals KTIME_MAX in
the menu cpuidle governor (Zhongqiu Han)
- Convert the cpuidle PSCI driver to a faux device one (Sudeep Holla)
- Add C1 demotion on/off sysfs knob to the intel_idle driver (Artem
Bityutskiy)
- Fix typos in two comments in the teo cpuidle governor (Atul Kumar
Pant)

Merge tag 'vfs-6.16-rc1.misc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the usual selections of misc updates for this cycle.
Features:
- Use folios for symlinks in the page cache
FUSE already uses folios for its symlinks. Mirror that conversion
in the generic code and the NFS code. That lets us get rid of a few
folio->page->folio conversions in this path, and some of the few
remaining users of read_cache_page() / read_mapping_page()
- Try and make a few filesystem operations killable on the VFS
inode->i_mutex level
- Add sysctl vfs_cache_pressure_denom for bulk file operations
Some workloads need to preserve more dentries than we currently
allow through out sysctl interface
A HDFS servers with 12 HDDs per server, on a HDFS datanode startup
involves scanning all files and caching their metadata (including
dentries and inodes) in memory. Each HDD contains approximately 2
million files, resulting in a total of ~20 million cached dentries
after initialization
To minimize dentry reclamation, they set vfs_cache_pressure to 1.
Despite this configuration, memory pressure conditions can still
trigger reclamation of up to 50% of cached dentries, reducing the
cache from 20 million to approximately 10 million entries. During
the subsequent cache rebuild period, any HDFS datanode restart
operation incurs substantial latency penalties until full cache
recovery completes
To maintain service stability, more dentries need to be preserved
during memory reclamation. The current minimum reclaim ratio (1/100
of total dentries) remains too aggressive for such workload. This
patch introduces vfs_cache_pressure_denom for more granular cache
pressure control
The configuration [vfs_cache_pressure=1,
vfs_cache_pressure_denom=10000] effectively maintains the full 20
million dentry cache under memory pressure, preventing datanode
restart performance degradation
- Avoid some jumps in inode_permission() using likely()/unlikely()
- Avid a memory access which is most likely a cache miss when
descending into devcgroup_inode_permission()
- Add fastpath predicts for stat() and fdput()
- Anonymous inodes currently don't come with a proper mode causing
issues in the kernel when we want to add useful VFS debug assert.
Fix that by giving them a proper mode and masking it off when we
report it to userspace which relies on them not having any mode
- Anonymous inodes currently allow to change inode attributes because
the VFS falls back to simple_setattr() if i_op->setattr isn't
implemented. This means the ownership and mode for every single
user of anon_inode_inode can be changed. Block that as it's either
useless or actively harmful. If specific ownership is needed the
respective subsystem should allocate anonymous inodes from their
own private superblock
- Raise SB_I_NODEV and SB_I_NOEXEC on the anonymous inode superblock
- Add proper tests for anonymous inode behavior
- Make it easy to detect proper anonymous inodes and to ensure that
we can detect them in codepaths such as readahead()
Cleanups:
- Port pidfs to the new anon_inode_{g,s}etattr() helpers
- Try to remove the uselib() system call
- Add unlikely branch hint return path for poll
- Add unlikely branch hint on return path for core_sys_select
- Don't allow signals to interrupt getdents copying for fuse
- Provide a size hint to dir_context for during readdir()
- Use writeback_iter directly in mpage_writepages
- Update compression and mtime descriptions in initramfs
documentation
- Update main netfs API document
- Remove useless plus one in super_cache_scan()
- Remove unnecessary NULL-check guards during setns()
- Add separate separate {get,put}_cgroup_ns no-op cases
Fixes:
- Fix typo in root= kernel parameter description
- Use KERN_INFO for infof()|info_plog()|infofc()
- Correct comments of fs_validate_description()
- Mark an unlikely if condition with unlikely() in
vfs_parse_monolithic_sep()
- Delete macro fsparam_u32hex()
- Remove unused and problematic validate_constant_table()

rcutorture: Perform more frequent testing of ->gpwrap
Currently, the ->gpwrap is not tested (at all per my testing) due to the requirement of a large delta between a CPU's rdp->gp_seq and its node's rnp->gpseq. This results in no testing of ->gpwrap being set. This patch by default adds 5 minutes of testing with ->gpwrap forced by lowering the delta between rdp->gp_seq and rnp->gp_seq to just 8 GPs. All of this is configurable, including the active time for the setting and a full testing cycle. By default, the first 25 minutes of a test will have the _default_ behavior there is right now (ULONG_MAX / 4) delta. Then for 5 minutes, we switch to a smaller delta causing 1-2 wraps in 5 minutes. I believe this is reasonable since we at least add a little bit of testing for usecases where ->gpwrap is set.

x86/its: Add support for RSB stuffing mitigation
When retpoline mitigation is enabled for spectre-v2, enabling call-depth-tracking and RSB stuffing also mitigates ITS. Add cmdline option indirect_target_selection=stuff to allow enabling RSB stuffing mitigation. When retpoline mitigation is not enabled, =stuff option is ignored, and default mitigation for ITS is deployed.

x86/its: Add "vmexit" option to skip mitigation on some CPUs
Ice Lake generation CPUs are not affected by guest/host isolation part of ITS. If a user is only concerned about KVM guests, they can now choose a new cmdline option "vmexit" that will not deploy the ITS mitigation when CPU is not affected by guest/host isolation. This saves the performance overhead of ITS mitigation on Ice Lake gen CPUs. When "vmexit" option selected, if the CPU is affected by ITS guest/host isolation, the default ITS mitigation is deployed.
