a73fc3dcc6 rcu: Clean up after the SRCU-fastification of RCU Tasks Trace
Now that RCU Tasks Trace has been re-implemented in terms of SRCU-fast,
the ->trc_ipi_to_cpu, ->trc_blkd_cpu, ->trc_blkd_node, ->trc_holdout_list,
and ->trc_reader_special task_struct fields are no longer used.

In addition, the rcu_tasks_trace_qs(), rcu_tasks_trace_qs_blkd(),
exit_tasks_rcu_finish_trace(), and rcu_spawn_tasks_trace_kthread(),
show_rcu_tasks_trace_gp_kthread(), rcu_tasks_trace_get_gp_data(),
rcu_tasks_trace_torture_stats_print(), and get_rcu_tasks_trace_gp_kthread()
functions and all the other functions that they invoke are no longer used.

Also, the TRC_NEED_QS and TRC_NEED_QS_CHECKED CPP macros are no longer used.
Neither are the rcu_tasks_trace_lazy_ms and rcu_task_ipi_delay rcupdate
module parameters and the TASKS_TRACE_RCU_READ_MB Kconfig option.

This commit therefore removes all of them.

c0fef45dba char/mwave: drop it
When I tried to clean up the driver a bit, Arnd noted:
> According to thinkwiki.de, the 3780i modem was only used in a
> couple of Thinkpad models that are now over 25 years old, using
> Pentium II processors, and they all have a physical RS232 port
> that can be used to connect an external modem instead.
>
> Maybe we can just retire this driver?

So instead of the clean up, drop the driver altogether.

5188f6bd40 docs: admin: devices: /dev/sr<N> for SCSI CD-ROM
Don't claim that /dev/sr<N> device names for SCSI CD-ROM drives are
deprecated and don't recommend /dev/scd<N> alternate names for them.

/dev/scd<N> device names for SCSI CD-ROM drives are not in use for more
than a decade, see commit [1] that was a part of udev release 174.
Earlier, related rules were volatile, sometimes /dev/scd<N> were syminks
to /dev/sr<N>, sometimes vice versa.

Recognizing of root=/dev/scd<N> kernel command line argument was removed
in kernel 2.5.45 [2].

In the docs /dev/scd<N> became recommended names in 2.6.9 [3].
Mention of these names appeared much earlier in 1.3.22 [4].

Merge tag 'block-6.19-20251218' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/axboe/linux

Pull block fixes from Jens Axboe:

 - ublk selftests for missing coverage

 - two fixes for the block integrity code

 - fix for the newly added newly added PR read keys ioctl, limiting the
   memory that can be allocated

 - work around for a deadlock that can occur with ublk, where partition
   scanning ends up recursing back into file closure, which needs the
   same mutex grabbed. Not the prettiest thing in the world, but an
   acceptable work-around until we can eliminate the reliance on
   disk->open_mutex for this

 - fix for a race between enabling writeback throttling and new IO
   submissions

 - move a bit of bio flag handling code. No changes, but needed for a
   patchset for a future kernel

 - fix for an init time id leak failure in rnbd

 - loop/zloop state check fix

ad50d922f4 ata: libata: Add libata.force parameter max_sec
Add a new libata.force parameter called max_sec.

The parameter can take an arbitrary value using the format:
libata.force=max_sec=<number of 512B sectors>

e.g. libata.force=max_sec=8191
or
libata.force=max_sec=2048

This will allow the user to set an arbitrary maximum command size
(dev->max_sectors) using libata.force.

We cannot remove the existing libata.force parameters "max_sec_128" and
"max_sec_1024", as these are a part of the exising user facing API.

67a454e6b1 memblock: introduce check_pages boot parameter
... to decouple simple checks for page state on allocation and free from
 CONFIG_DEBUG_VM.
 
 check_pages parameter allows enabling page checking without building kernel
 with CONFIG_DEBUG_VM or forcing init_on_{alloc, free} or other heavier
 mechanisms.

509d3f4584 Significant patch series in this pull request:
- The 6 patch series "panic: sys_info: Refactor and fix a potential
   issue" from Andy Shevchenko fixes a build issue and does some cleanup in
   ib/sys_info.c.
 
 - The 9 patch series "Implement mul_u64_u64_div_u64_roundup()" from
   David Laight enhances the 64-bit math code on behalf of a PWM driver and
   beefs up the test module for these library functions.
 
 - The 2 patch series "scripts/gdb/symbols: make BPF debug info available
   to GDB" from Ilya Leoshkevich makes BPF symbol names, sizes, and line
   numbers available to the GDB debugger.
 
 - The 4 patch series "Enable hung_task and lockup cases to dump system
   info on demand" from Feng Tang adds a sysctl which can be used to cause
   additional info dumping when the hung-task and lockup detectors fire.
 
 - The 6 patch series "lib/base64: add generic encoder/decoder, migrate
   users" from Kuan-Wei Chiu adds a general base64 encoder/decoder to lib/
   and migrates several users away from their private implementations.
 
 - The 2 patch series "rbree: inline rb_first() and rb_last()" from Eric
   Dumazet makes TCP a little faster.
 
 - The 9 patch series "liveupdate: Rework KHO for in-kernel users" from
   Pasha Tatashin reworks the KEXEC Handover interfaces in preparation for
   Live Update Orchestrator (LUO), and possibly for other future clients.
 
 - The 13 patch series "kho: simplify state machine and enable dynamic
   updates" from Pasha Tatashin increases the flexibility of KEXEC
   Handover.  Also preparation for LUO.
 
 - The 18 patch series "Live Update Orchestrator" from Pasha Tatashin is
   a major new feature targeted at cloud environments.  Quoting the [0/N]:
 
     This series introduces the Live Update Orchestrator, a kernel subsystem
     designed to facilitate live kernel updates using a kexec-based reboot.
     This capability is critical for cloud environments, allowing hypervisors
     to be updated with minimal downtime for running virtual machines.  LUO
     achieves this by preserving the state of selected resources, such as
     memory, devices and their dependencies, across the kernel transition.
 
     As a key feature, this series includes support for preserving memfd file
     descriptors, which allows critical in-memory data, such as guest RAM or
     any other large memory region, to be maintained in RAM across the kexec
     reboot.
 
   Mike Rappaport merits a mention here, for his extensive review and
   testing work.
 
 - The 3 patch series "kexec: reorganize kexec and kdump sysfs" from
   Sourabh Jain moves the kexec and kdump sysfs entries from /sys/kernel/
   to /sys/kernel/kexec/ and adds back-compatibility symlinks which can
   hopefully be removed one day.
 
 - The 2 patch series "kho: fixes for vmalloc restoration" from Mike
   Rapoport fixes a BUG which was being hit during KHO restoration of
   vmalloc() regions.

83c8f7b5e1 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.

8f7aa3d3c7 Networking changes for 6.19.
Core & protocols
 ----------------
 
  - Replace busylock at the Tx queuing layer with a lockless list. Resulting
    in a 300% (4x) improvement on heavy TX workloads, sending twice the
    number of packets per second, for half the cpu cycles.
 
  - Allow constantly busy flows to migrate to a more suitable CPU/NIC
    queue. Normally we perform queue re-selection when flow comes out
    of idle, but under extreme circumstances the flows may be constantly
    busy. Add sysctl to allow periodic rehashing even if it'd risk packet
    reordering.
 
  - Optimize the NAPI skb cache, make it larger, use it in more paths.
 
  - Attempt returning Tx skbs to the originating CPU (like we already did
    for Rx skbs).
 
  - Various data structure layout and prefetch optimizations from Eric.
 
  - Remove ktime_get() from the recvmsg() fast path, ktime_get() is sadly
    quite expensive on recent AMD machines.
 
  - Extend threaded NAPI polling to allow the kthread busy poll for packets.
 
  - Make MPTCP use Rx backlog processing. This lowers the lock pressure,
    improving the Rx performance.
 
  - Support memcg accounting of MPTCP socket memory.
 
  - Allow admin to opt sockets out of global protocol memory accounting
    (using a sysctl or BPF-based policy). The global limits are a poor fit
    for modern container workloads, where limits are imposed using cgroups.
 
  - Improve heuristics for when to kick off AF_UNIX garbage collection.
 
  - Allow users to control TCP SACK compression, and default to 33% of RTT.
 
  - Add tcp_rcvbuf_low_rtt sysctl to let datacenter users avoid unnecessarily
    aggressive rcvbuf growth and overshot when the connection RTT is low.
 
  - Preserve skb metadata space across skb_push / skb_pull operations.
 
  - Support for IPIP encapsulation in the nftables flowtable offload.
 
  - Support appending IP interface information to ICMP messages (RFC 5837).
 
  - Support setting max record size in TLS (RFC 8449).
 
  - Remove taking rtnl_lock from RTM_GETNEIGHTBL and RTM_SETNEIGHTBL.
 
  - Use a dedicated lock (and RCU) in MPLS, instead of rtnl_lock.
 
  - Let users configure the number of write buffers in SMC.
 
  - Add new struct sockaddr_unsized for sockaddr of unknown length,
    from Kees.
 
  - Some conversions away from the crypto_ahash API, from Eric Biggers.
 
  - Some preparations for slimming down struct page.
 
  - YAML Netlink protocol spec for WireGuard.
 
  - Add a tool on top of YAML Netlink specs/lib for reporting commonly
    computed derived statistics and summarized system state.
 
 Driver API
 ----------
 
  - Add CAN XL support to the CAN Netlink interface.
 
  - Add uAPI for reporting PHY Mean Square Error (MSE) diagnostics,
    as defined by the OPEN Alliance's "Advanced diagnostic features
    for 100BASE-T1 automotive Ethernet PHYs" specification.
 
  - Add DPLL phase-adjust-gran pin attribute (and implement it in zl3073x).
 
  - Refactor xfrm_input lock to reduce contention when NIC offloads IPsec
    and performs RSS.
 
  - Add info to devlink params whether the current setting is the default
    or a user override. Allow resetting back to default.
 
  - Add standard device stats for PSP crypto offload.
 
  - Leverage DSA frame broadcast to implement simple HSR frame duplication
    for a lot of switches without dedicated HSR offload.
 
  - Add uAPI defines for 1.6Tbps link modes.
 
 Device drivers
 --------------
 
  - Add Motorcomm YT921x gigabit Ethernet switch support.
 
  - Add MUCSE driver for N500/N210 1GbE NIC series.
 
  - Convert drivers to support dedicated ops for timestamping control,
    and away from the direct IOCTL handling. While at it support GET
    operations for PHY timestamping.
 
  - Add (and convert most drivers to) a dedicated ethtool callback
    for reading the Rx ring count.

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
 "Core & protocols:

   - Replace busylock at the Tx queuing layer with a lockless list.

     Resulting in a 300% (4x) improvement on heavy TX workloads, sending
     twice the number of packets per second, for half the cpu cycles.

   - Allow constantly busy flows to migrate to a more suitable CPU/NIC
     queue.

     Normally we perform queue re-selection when flow comes out of idle,
     but under extreme circumstances the flows may be constantly busy.

     Add sysctl to allow periodic rehashing even if it'd risk packet
     reordering.

   - Optimize the NAPI skb cache, make it larger, use it in more paths.

   - Attempt returning Tx skbs to the originating CPU (like we already
     did for Rx skbs).

   - Various data structure layout and prefetch optimizations from Eric.

   - Remove ktime_get() from the recvmsg() fast path, ktime_get() is
     sadly quite expensive on recent AMD machines.

   - Extend threaded NAPI polling to allow the kthread busy poll for
     packets.

   - Make MPTCP use Rx backlog processing. This lowers the lock
     pressure, improving the Rx performance.

   - Support memcg accounting of MPTCP socket memory.

   - Allow admin to opt sockets out of global protocol memory accounting
     (using a sysctl or BPF-based policy). The global limits are a poor
     fit for modern container workloads, where limits are imposed using
     cgroups.

   - Improve heuristics for when to kick off AF_UNIX garbage collection.

   - Allow users to control TCP SACK compression, and default to 33% of
     RTT.

   - Add tcp_rcvbuf_low_rtt sysctl to let datacenter users avoid
     unnecessarily aggressive rcvbuf growth and overshot when the
     connection RTT is low.

   - Preserve skb metadata space across skb_push / skb_pull operations.

   - Support for IPIP encapsulation in the nftables flowtable offload.

   - Support appending IP interface information to ICMP messages (RFC
     5837).

   - Support setting max record size in TLS (RFC 8449).

   - Remove taking rtnl_lock from RTM_GETNEIGHTBL and RTM_SETNEIGHTBL.

   - Use a dedicated lock (and RCU) in MPLS, instead of rtnl_lock.

   - Let users configure the number of write buffers in SMC.

   - Add new struct sockaddr_unsized for sockaddr of unknown length,
     from Kees.

   - Some conversions away from the crypto_ahash API, from Eric Biggers.

   - Some preparations for slimming down struct page.

   - YAML Netlink protocol spec for WireGuard.

   - Add a tool on top of YAML Netlink specs/lib for reporting commonly
     computed derived statistics and summarized system state.

  Driver API:

   - Add CAN XL support to the CAN Netlink interface.

   - Add uAPI for reporting PHY Mean Square Error (MSE) diagnostics, as
     defined by the OPEN Alliance's "Advanced diagnostic features for
     100BASE-T1 automotive Ethernet PHYs" specification.

   - Add DPLL phase-adjust-gran pin attribute (and implement it in
     zl3073x).

   - Refactor xfrm_input lock to reduce contention when NIC offloads
     IPsec and performs RSS.

   - Add info to devlink params whether the current setting is the
     default or a user override. Allow resetting back to default.

   - Add standard device stats for PSP crypto offload.

   - Leverage DSA frame broadcast to implement simple HSR frame
     duplication for a lot of switches without dedicated HSR offload.

   - Add uAPI defines for 1.6Tbps link modes.

  Device drivers:

   - Add Motorcomm YT921x gigabit Ethernet switch support.

   - Add MUCSE driver for N500/N210 1GbE NIC series.

   - Convert drivers to support dedicated ops for timestamping control,
     and away from the direct IOCTL handling. While at it support GET
     operations for PHY timestamping.

   - Add (and convert most drivers to) a dedicated ethtool callback for
     reading the Rx ring count.

     supports Synopsys turn-key MAC IP integrated into a ton of SoCs.

   truly gone.
 
 - cpuset cleanups and simplifications. Enforce that domain isolated CPUs
   stay in root or isolated partitions and fail if isolated+nohz_full would
   leave no housekeeping CPU. Fix sched/deadline root domain handling during
   CPU hot-unplug and race for tasks in attaching cpusets.

f96163865a 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

d7ba853c0e ipe: Update documentation for script enforcement
This patch adds explanation of script enforcement mechanism in admin
guide documentation. Describes how IPE supports integrity enforcement
for indirectly executed scripts through the AT_EXECVE_CHECK flag, and

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)

f278809475 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.

03ef32d665 sys_info: add a default kernel sys_info mask
Which serves as a global default sys_info mask.  When users want the same
system information for many error cases (panic, hung, lockup ...), they
can chose to set this global knob only once, while not setting up each
individual sys_info knobs.

This just adds a 'lazy' option, and doesn't change existing kernel
behavior as the mask is 0 by default.

5f264c00b6 docs: panic: correct some sys_ifo names in sysctl doc
Patch series "Enable hung_task and lockup cases to dump system info on
demand", v2.

When working on kernel stability issues: panic, task-hung and soft/hard
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, ftrace dump, etc.

panic case already uses sys_info() for this purpose, and has a
'panic_sys_info' sysctl(also support cmdline setup) interface to take
human readable string like "tasks,mem,timers,locks,ftrace,..." to control
what kinds of information is needed.  Which is also helpful to debug
task-hung and lockup cases.

So this patchset introduces the similar sys_info sysctl interface for
task-hung and lockup cases.

his is mainly for debugging and the info dumping could be intrusive, like
dumping call stack for all tasks when system has huge number of tasks,
similarly for ftrace dump (we may add tracing_stop() and tracing_start()
around it)

Locally these have been used in our bug chasing for stability issues and
were helpful.

As Andrew suggested, add a configurable global 'kernel_sys_info' knob. 
When error scenarios like panic/hung-task/lockup etc doesn't setup their
own sys_info knob and calls sys_info() with parameter "0", this global
knob will take effect.  It could be used for other kernel cases like OOM,
which may not need one dedicated sys_info knob.


This patch (of 4):

Some sys_info names wered forgotten to change in patch iterations, while
the right names are defined in kernel/sys_info.c.

ae97648e14 dm verity fec: Expose corrected block count via status
Enhance visibility into dm-verity Forward Error Correction (FEC)
activity. While FEC can correct on-disk corruptions, the number of
successful correction events is not readily exposed through a standard
interface.

This change integrates FEC statistics into the verity target's
.status handler for STATUSTYPE_INFO. The info output now
includes count of corrected block by FEC.

The counter is a per-device instance atomic64_t, maintained within
the struct dm_verity_fec, tracking blocks successfully repaired by FEC
on this specific device instance since it was created.

This approach aligns with the standard Device Mapper mechanism for
targets to report runtime information, as used by other targets like
dm-integrity.

This patch also updates Documentation/admin-guide/device-mapper/verity.rst
to reflect the new status information.

Tested:
  Induced single-bit errors on a block device protected by dm-verity
  with FEC on android phone. Confirmed 'dmctl status <device>' on Android
  reports an incrementing 'fec_corrected_blocks' count after the
  corrupted blocks were accessed.

8e689f8ea4 mm/swap: do not choose swap device according to numa node
Patch series "mm/swapfile.c: select swap devices of default priority round
robin", v5.

Currently, on system with multiple swap devices, swap allocation will
select one swap device according to priority.  The swap device with the
highest priority will be chosen to allocate firstly.

People can specify a priority from 0 to 32767 when swapon a swap device,
or the system will set it from -2 then downwards by default.  Meanwhile,
on NUMA system, the swap device with node_id will be considered first on
that NUMA node of the node_id.

In the current code, an array of plist, swap_avail_heads[nid], is used to
organize swap devices on each NUMA node.  For each NUMA node, there is a
plist organizing all swap devices.  The 'prio' value in the plist is the
negated value of the device's priority due to plist being sorted from low
to high.  The swap device owning one node_id will be promoted to the front
position on that NUMA node, then other swap devices are put in order of
their default priority.

E.g I got a system with 8 NUMA nodes, and I setup 4 zram partition as
swap devices.

Current behaviour:
their priorities will be(note that -1 is skipped):
NAME       TYPE      SIZE USED PRIO
/dev/zram0 partition  16G   0B   -2
/dev/zram1 partition  16G   0B   -3
/dev/zram2 partition  16G   0B   -4
/dev/zram3 partition  16G   0B   -5

And their positions in the 8 swap_avail_lists[nid] will be:
swap_avail_lists[0]: /* node 0's available swap device list */
zram0   -> zram1   -> zram2   -> zram3
prio:1     prio:3     prio:4     prio:5
swap_avali_lists[1]: /* node 1's available swap device list */
zram1   -> zram0   -> zram2   -> zram3
prio:1     prio:2     prio:4     prio:5
swap_avail_lists[2]: /* node 2's available swap device list */
zram2   -> zram0   -> zram1   -> zram3
prio:1     prio:2     prio:3     prio:5
swap_avail_lists[3]: /* node 3's available swap device list */
zram3   -> zram0   -> zram1   -> zram2
prio:1     prio:2     prio:3     prio:4
swap_avail_lists[4-7]: /* node 4,5,6,7's available swap device list */
zram0   -> zram1   -> zram2   -> zram3
prio:2     prio:3     prio:4     prio:5

The adjustment for swap device with node_id intended to decrease the
pressure of lock contention for one swap device by taking different swap
device on different node.  The adjustment was introduced in commit
a2468cc9bf ("swap: choose swap device according to numa node"). 
However, the adjustment is a little coarse-grained.  On the node, the swap
device sharing the node's id will always be selected firstly by node's
CPUs until exhausted, then next one.  And on other nodes where no swap
device shares its node id, swap device with priority '-2' will be selected
firstly until exhausted, then next with priority '-3'.

This is the swapon output during the process high pressure vm-scability
test is being taken.  It's clearly showing zram0 is heavily exploited
until exhausted.

===================================
[root@hp-dl385g10-03 ~]# swapon
NAME       TYPE      SIZE  USED PRIO
/dev/zram0 partition  16G 15.7G   -2
/dev/zram1 partition  16G  3.4G   -3
/dev/zram2 partition  16G  3.4G   -4
/dev/zram3 partition  16G  2.6G   -5

The node based strategy on selecting swap device is much better then the
old way one by one selecting swap device.  However it is still
unreasonable because swap devices are assumed to have similar accessing
speed if no priority is specified when swapon.  It's unfair and doesn't
make sense just because one swap device is swapped on firstly, its
priority will be higher than the one swapped on later.

So in this patchset, change is made to select the swap device round robin
if default priority.  In code, the plist array swap_avail_heads[nid] is
replaced with a plist swap_avail_head which reverts commit a2468cc9bf. 
Meanwhile, on top of the revert, further change is taken to make any
device w/o specified priority get the same default priority '-1'.  Surely,
swap device with specified priority are always put foremost, this is not
impacted.  If you care about their different accessing speed, then use
'swapon -p xx' to deploy priority for your swap devices.

New behaviour:

swap_avail_list: /* one global available swap device list */

This patch (of 2):

This reverts commit a2468cc9bf ("swap: choose swap device according to
numa node").

After this patch, the behaviour will change back to pre-commit
a2468cc9bf.  Means the priority will be set from -1 then downwards by
default, and when swapping, it will exhault swap device one by one
according to priority from high to low.  This is preparation work for
later change.

e97d7c5165 mm: shmem/tmpfs hugepage defaults config choice
Allow to override defaults for shemem and tmpfs at config time.  This is
consistent with how transparent hugepages can be configured.

Same results can be achieved with the existing
'transparent_hugepage_shmem' and 'transparent_hugepage_tmpfs' settings in
the kernel command line, but it is more convenient to define basic
settings at config time instead of changing kernel command line later.

Defaults for shmem and tmpfs were not changed.  They are remained the same
as before: 'never' for both cases.  Options 'deny' and 'force' are omitted
intentionally since these are special values and supposed to be used for
emergencies or testing and are not expected to be permanent ones.

Primary motivation for adding config option is to enable policy
enforcement at build time.  In large-scale production environments (Meta's
for example), the kernel configuration is often maintained centrally close
to the kernel code itself and owned by the kernel engineers, while boot
parameters are managed independently (e.g.  by provisioning systems).  In
such setups, the kernel build defines the supported and expected behavior
in a single place, but there is no reliable or uniform control over the
kernel command line options.

A build-time default allows kernel integrators to enforce a predictable
hugepage policy for shmem/tmpfs on a base layer, ensuring reproducible
behavior and avoiding configuration drift caused by possible boot-time
differences.

In short, primary benefit is mostly operational: it provides a way to
codify preferred policy in the kernel configuration, which is versioned,
reviewed, and tested as part of the kernel build process, rather than
depending on potentially variable boot parameters.

d929525c2e memcg: net: track network throttling due to memcg memory pressure
The kernel can throttle network sockets if the memory cgroup associated
with the corresponding socket is under memory pressure.  The throttling
actions include clamping the transmit window, failing to expand receive or
send buffers, aggressively prune out-of-order receive queue, FIN deferred
to a retransmitted packet and more.  Let's add memcg metric to track such
throttling actions.

At the moment memcg memory pressure is defined through vmpressure and in
future it may be defined using PSI or we may add more flexible way for the
users to define memory pressure, maybe through ebpf.  However the
potential throttling actions will remain the same, so this newly
introduced metric will continue to track throttling actions irrespective
of how memcg memory pressure is defined.

6c2e6e2c1a dynamic_debug: add support for print stack
In practical problem diagnosis, especially during the boot phase, it is
often desirable to know the call sequence.  However, currently, apart from
adding print statements and recompiling the kernel, there seems to be no
good alternative.  If dynamic_debug supported printing the call stack, it
would be very helpful for diagnosing issues.  This patch add support '+d'
for dump stack.

9544f9e694 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.

b4a96ab50f powerpc/kdump: Add support for crashkernel CMA reservation
Commit 35c18f2933 ("Add a new optional ",cma" suffix to the
crashkernel= command line option") and commit ab475510e0 ("kdump:
implement reserve_crashkernel_cma") added CMA support for kdump
crashkernel reservation.

Extend crashkernel CMA reservation support to powerpc.

The following changes are made to enable CMA reservation on powerpc:

- Parse and obtain the CMA reservation size along with other crashkernel
  parameters
- Call reserve_crashkernel_cma() to allocate the CMA region for kdump
- Include the CMA-reserved ranges in the usable memory ranges for the
  kdump kernel to use.
- Exclude the CMA-reserved ranges from the crash kernel memory to
  prevent them from being exported through /proc/vmcore.

With the introduction of the CMA crashkernel regions,
crash_exclude_mem_range() needs to be called multiple times to exclude
both crashk_res and crashk_cma_ranges from the crash memory ranges. To
avoid repetitive logic for validating mem_ranges size and handling
reallocation when required, this functionality is moved to a new wrapper
function crash_exclude_mem_range_guarded().

To ensure proper CMA reservation, reserve_crashkernel_cma() is called
after pageblock_order is initialized.

Update kernel-parameters.txt to document CMA support for crashkernel on
powerpc architecture.

62ed1b5822 md: allow configuring logical block size
Previously, raid array used the maximum logical block size (LBS)
of all member disks. Adding a larger LBS disk at runtime could
unexpectedly increase RAID's LBS, risking corruption of existing
partitions. This can be reproduced by:

```
  # LBS of sd[de] is 512 bytes, sdf is 4096 bytes.
  mdadm -CRq /dev/md0 -l1 -n3 /dev/sd[de] missing --assume-clean

  # LBS is 512
  cat /sys/block/md0/queue/logical_block_size

  # create partition md0p1
  parted -s /dev/md0 mklabel gpt mkpart primary 1MiB 100%
  lsblk | grep md0p1

  # LBS becomes 4096 after adding sdf
  mdadm --add -q /dev/md0 /dev/sdf
  cat /sys/block/md0/queue/logical_block_size

  # partition lost
  partprobe /dev/md0
  lsblk | grep md0p1
```

Simply restricting larger-LBS disks is inflexible. In some scenarios,
only disks with 512 bytes LBS are available currently, but later, disks
with 4KB LBS may be added to the array.

Making LBS configurable is the best way to solve this scenario.
After this patch, the raid will:
  - store LBS in disk metadata
  - add a read-write sysfs 'mdX/logical_block_size'

Future mdadm should support setting LBS via metadata field during RAID
creation and the new sysfs. Though the kernel allows runtime LBS changes,
users should avoid modifying it after creating partitions or filesystems
to prevent compatibility issues.

Only 1.x metadata supports configurable LBS. 0.90 metadata inits all
fields to default values at auto-detect. Supporting 0.90 would require
more extensive changes and no such use case has been observed.

Note that many RAID paths rely on PAGE_SIZE alignment, including for
metadata I/O. A larger LBS than PAGE_SIZE will result in metadata
read/write failures. So this config should be prevented.

090bf5a0f4 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.

cb908f8b0a Documentation: intel_pstate: fix duplicate hyperlink target errors
Fix reST warnings in
Documentation/admin-guide/pm/intel_pstate.rst caused by missing explicit
hyperlink labels for section titles.

Before this change, the following errors were printed during
`make htmldocs`:

  Documentation/admin-guide/pm/intel_pstate.rst:401:
    ERROR: Indirect hyperlink target (id="id6") refers to target
    "passive mode", which is a duplicate, and cannot be used as a
    unique reference.
  Documentation/admin-guide/pm/intel_pstate.rst:517:
    ERROR: Indirect hyperlink target (id="id9") refers to target
    "active mode", which is a duplicate, and cannot be used as a
    unique reference.
  Documentation/admin-guide/pm/intel_pstate.rst:611:
    ERROR: Indirect hyperlink target (id="id15") refers to target
    "global attributes", which is a duplicate, and cannot be used as
    a unique reference.
  ERROR: Duplicate target name, cannot be used as a unique reference:
  "passive mode", "active mode", "global attributes".

These errors occurred because the sections "Active Mode",
"Active Mode With HWP", "Passive Mode", and "Global Attributes"
did not define explicit hyperlink labels. As a result, Sphinx
auto-generated duplicate anchors when the same titles appeared
multiple times within the document.

Because of this, the generated HTML documentation contained
broken references such as:

  `active mode <Active Mode_>`_
  `passive mode <Passive Mode_>`_
  `global attributes <Global Attributes_>`_

This patch adds explicit hyperlink labels for the affected sections,
ensuring all references are unique and correctly resolved.

After applying this patch, `make htmldocs` completes without
any warnings, and all hyperlinks in intel_pstate.html render properly.

b46ab63181 net: Introduce net.core.bypass_prot_mem sysctl.
If a socket has sk->sk_bypass_prot_mem flagged, the socket opts out
of the global protocol memory accounting.

Let's control the flag by a new sysctl knob.

The flag is written once during socket(2) and is inherited to child
sockets.

Tested with a script that creates local socket pairs and send()s a
bunch of data without recv()ing.

Setup:

  # mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/test
  # echo $$ >> /sys/fs/cgroup/test/cgroup.procs
  # sysctl -q net.ipv4.tcp_mem="1000 1000 1000"
  # ulimit -n 524288

Without net.core.bypass_prot_mem, charged to tcp_mem & memcg

   special calling convention and, more importantly, bypassing compiler
   control-flow integrity checking because they're written in asm

 - Remove wrongly used static branches and other ugliness accumulated
   over time in hyperv's hypercall implementation with a proper static
   function call to the correct hypervisor call variant

 - Add some fixes and modifications to allow running FRED-enabled
   kernels in KVM even on non-FRED hardware

 - Add kCFI improvements like validating indirect calls and prepare for
   enabling kCFI with GCC. Add cmdline params documentation and other
   code cleanups

 - Use the single-byte 0xd6 insn as the official #UD single-byte
   undefined opcode instruction as agreed upon by both x86 vendors

 - Other smaller cleanups and touchups all over the place

256e341706 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.

ee2fe81cdc 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.

8804d970fa Summary of significant series in this pull request:
- The 3 patch series "mm, swap: improve cluster scan strategy" from
   Kairui Song improves performance and reduces the failure rate of swap
   cluster allocation.
 
 - The 4 patch series "support large align and nid in Rust allocators"
   from Vitaly Wool permits Rust allocators to set NUMA node and large
   alignment when perforning slub and vmalloc reallocs.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/damon/vaddr: support stat-purpose DAMOS" from
   Yueyang Pan extend DAMOS_STAT's handling of the DAMON operations sets
   for virtual address spaces for ops-level DAMOS filters.
 
 - The 3 patch series "execute PROCMAP_QUERY ioctl under per-vma lock"
   from Suren Baghdasaryan reduces mmap_lock contention during reads of
   /proc/pid/maps.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/mincore: minor clean up for swap cache
   checking" from Kairui Song performs some cleanup in the swap code.
 
 - The 11 patch series "mm: vm_normal_page*() improvements" from David
   Hildenbrand provides code cleanup in the pagemap code.
 
 - The 5 patch series "add persistent huge zero folio support" from
   Pankaj Raghav provides a block layer speedup by optionalls making the
   huge_zero_pagepersistent, instead of releasing it when its refcount
   falls to zero.
 
 - The 3 patch series "kho: fixes and cleanups" from Mike Rapoport adds a
   few touchups to the recently added Kexec Handover feature.
 
 - The 10 patch series "mm: make mm->flags a bitmap and 64-bit on all
   arches" from Lorenzo Stoakes turns mm_struct.flags into a bitmap.  To
   end the constant struggle with space shortage on 32-bit conflicting with
   64-bit's needs.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/swapfile.c and swap.h cleanup" from Chris Li
   cleans up some swap code.
 
 - The 7 patch series "selftests/mm: Fix false positives and skip
   unsupported tests" from Donet Tom fixes a few things in our selftests
   code.
 
 - The 7 patch series "prctl: extend PR_SET_THP_DISABLE to only provide
   THPs when advised" from David Hildenbrand "allows individual processes
   to opt-out of THP=always into THP=madvise, without affecting other
   workloads on the system".
 
   It's a long story - the [1/N] changelog spells out the considerations.
 
 - The 11 patch series "Add and use memdesc_flags_t" from Matthew Wilcox
   gets us started on the memdesc project.  Please see
   https://kernelnewbies.org/MatthewWilcox/Memdescs and
   https://blogs.oracle.com/linux/post/introducing-memdesc.
 
 - The 3 patch series "Tiny optimization for large read operations" from
   Chi Zhiling improves the efficiency of the pagecache read path.
 
 - The 5 patch series "Better split_huge_page_test result check" from Zi
   Yan improves our folio splitting selftest code.
 
 - The 2 patch series "test that rmap behaves as expected" from Wei Yang
   adds some rmap selftests.
 
 - The 3 patch series "remove write_cache_pages()" from Christoph Hellwig
   removes that function and converts its two remaining callers.
 
 - The 2 patch series "selftests/mm: uffd-stress fixes" from Dev Jain
   fixes some UFFD selftests issues.
 
 - The 3 patch series "introduce kernel file mapped folios" from Boris
   Burkov introduces the concept of "kernel file pages".  Using these
   permits btrfs to account its metadata pages to the root cgroup, rather
   than to the cgroups of random inappropriate tasks.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/pageblock: improve readability of some
   pageblock handling" from Wei Yang provides some readability improvements
   to the page allocator code.
 
 - The 11 patch series "mm/damon: support ARM32 with LPAE" from SeongJae
   Park teaches DAMON to understand arm32 highmem.
 
 - The 4 patch series "tools: testing: Use existing atomic.h for
   vma/maple tests" from Brendan Jackman performs some code cleanups and
   deduplication under tools/testing/.
 
 - The 2 patch series "maple_tree: Fix testing for 32bit compiles" from
   Liam Howlett fixes a couple of 32-bit issues in
   tools/testing/radix-tree.c.
 
 - The 2 patch series "kasan: unify kasan_enabled() and remove
   arch-specific implementations" from Sabyrzhan Tasbolatov moves KASAN
   arch-specific initialization code into a common arch-neutral
   implementation.
 
 - The 3 patch series "mm: remove zpool" from Johannes Weiner removes
   zspool - an indirection layer which now only redirects to a single thing
   (zsmalloc).
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm: task_stack: Stack handling cleanups" from
   Pasha Tatashin makes a couple of cleanups in the fork code.
 
 - The 37 patch series "mm: remove nth_page()" from David Hildenbrand
   makes rather a lot of adjustments at various nth_page() callsites,
   eventually permitting the removal of that undesirable helper function.
 
 - The 2 patch series "introduce kasan.write_only option in hw-tags" from
   Yeoreum Yun creates a KASAN read-only mode for ARM, using that
   architecture's memory tagging feature.  It is felt that a read-only mode
   KASAN is suitable for use in production systems rather than debug-only.
 
 - The 3 patch series "mm: hugetlb: cleanup hugetlb folio allocation"
   from Kefeng Wang does some tidying in the hugetlb folio allocation code.
 
 - The 12 patch series "mm: establish const-correctness for pointer
   parameters" from Max Kellermann makes quite a number of the MM API
   functions more accurate about the constness of their arguments.  This
   was getting in the way of subsystems (in this case CEPH) when they
   attempt to improving their own const/non-const accuracy.
 
 - The 7 patch series "Cleanup free_pages() misuse" from Vishal Moola
   fixes a number of code sites which were confused over when to use
   free_pages() vs __free_pages().
 
 - The 3 patch series "Add Rust abstraction for Maple Trees" from Alice
   Ryhl makes the mapletree code accessible to Rust.  Required by nouveau
   and by its forthcoming successor: the new Rust Nova driver.
 
 - The 2 patch series "selftests/mm: split_huge_page_test:
   split_pte_mapped_thp improvements" from David Hildenbrand adds a fix and
   some cleanups to the thp selftesting code.
 
 - The 14 patch series "mm, swap: introduce swap table as swap cache
   (phase I)" from Chris Li and Kairui Song is the first step along the
   path to implementing "swap tables" - a new approach to swap allocation
   and state tracking which is expected to yield speed and space
   improvements.  This patchset itself yields a 5-20% performance benefit
   in some situations.
 
 - The 3 patch series "Some ptdesc cleanups" from Matthew Wilcox utilizes
   the new memdesc layer to clean up the ptdesc code a little.
 
 - The 3 patch series "Fix va_high_addr_switch.sh test failure" from
   Chunyu Hu fixes some issues in our 5-level pagetable selftesting code.
 
 - The 2 patch series "Minor fixes for memory allocation profiling" from
   Suren Baghdasaryan addresses a couple of minor issues in relatively new
   memory allocation profiling feature.
 
 - The 3 patch series "Small cleanups" from Matthew Wilcox has a few
   cleanups in preparation for more memdesc work.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/damon: add addr_unit for DAMON_LRU_SORT and
   DAMON_RECLAIM" from Quanmin Yan makes some changes to DAMON in
   furtherance of supporting arm highmem.
 
 - The 2 patch series "selftests/mm: Add -Wunreachable-code and fix
   warnings" from Muhammad Anjum adds that compiler check to selftests code
   and fixes the fallout, by removing dead code.
 
 - The 10 patch series "Improvements to Victim Process Thawing and OOM
   Reaper Traversal Order" from zhongjinji makes a number of improvements
   in the OOM killer: mainly thawing a more appropriate group of victim
   threads so they can release resources.
 
 - The 5 patch series "mm/damon: misc fixups and improvements for 6.18"
   from SeongJae Park is a bunch of small and unrelated fixups for DAMON.
 
 - The 7 patch series "mm/damon: define and use DAMON initialization
   check function" from SeongJae Park implement reliability and
   maintainability improvements to a recently-added bug fix.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/damon/stat: expose auto-tuned intervals and
   non-idle ages" from SeongJae Park provides additional transparency to
   userspace clients of the DAMON_STAT information.
 
 - The 2 patch series "Expand scope of khugepaged anonymous collapse"
   from Dev Jain removes some constraints on khubepaged's collapsing of
   anon VMAs.  It also increases the success rate of MADV_COLLAPSE against
   an anon vma.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm: do not assume file == vma->vm_file in
   compat_vma_mmap_prepare()" from Lorenzo Stoakes moves us further towards
   removal of file_operations.mmap().  This patchset concentrates upon
   clearing up the treatment of stacked filesystems.
 
 - The 6 patch series "mm: Improve mlock tracking for large folios" from
   Kiryl Shutsemau provides some fixes and improvements to mlock's tracking
   of large folios.  /proc/meminfo's "Mlocked" field became more accurate.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/ksm: Fix incorrect accounting of KSM counters
   during fork" from Donet Tom fixes several user-visible KSM stats
   inaccuracies across forks and adds selftest code to verify these
   counters.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm_slot: fix the usage of mm_slot_entry" from Wei
   Yang addresses some potential but presently benign issues in KSM's
   mm_slot handling.

07fdad3a93 Networking changes for 6.18.
Core & protocols
 ----------------
 
  - Improve drop account scalability on NUMA hosts for RAW and UDP sockets
    and the backlog, almost doubling the Pps capacity under DoS.
 
  - Optimize the UDP RX performance under stress, reducing contention,
    revisiting the binary layout of the involved data structs and
    implementing NUMA-aware locking. This improves UDP RX performance by
    an additional 50%, even more under extreme conditions.
 
  - Add support for PSP encryption of TCP connections; this mechanism has
    some similarities with IPsec and TLS, but offers superior HW offloads
    capabilities.
 
  - Ongoing work to support Accurate ECN for TCP. AccECN allows more than
    one congestion notification signal per RTT and is a building block for
    Low Latency, Low Loss, and Scalable Throughput (L4S).
 
  - Reorganize the TCP socket binary layout for data locality, reducing
    the number of touched cachelines in the fastpath.
 
  - Refactor skb deferral free to better scale on large multi-NUMA hosts,
    this improves TCP and UDP RX performances significantly on such HW.
 
  - Increase the default socket memory buffer limits from 256K to 4M to
    better fit modern link speeds.
 
  - Improve handling of setups with a large number of nexthop, making dump
    operating scaling linearly and avoiding unneeded synchronize_rcu() on
    delete.
 
  - Improve bridge handling of VLAN FDB, storing a single entry per bridge
    instead of one entry per port; this makes the dump order of magnitude
    faster on large switches.
 
  - Restore IP ID correctly for encapsulated packets at GSO segmentation
    time, allowing GRO to merge packets in more scenarios.
 
  - Improve netfilter matching performance on large sets.
 
  - Improve MPTCP receive path performance by leveraging recently
    introduced core infrastructure (skb deferral free) and adopting recent
    TCP autotuning changes.
 
  - Allow bridges to redirect to a backup port when the bridge port is
    administratively down.
 
  - Introduce MPTCP 'laminar' endpoint that con be used only once per
    connection and simplify common MPTCP setups.
 
  - Add RCU safety to dst->dev, closing a lot of possible races.
 
  - A significant crypto library API for SCTP, MPTCP and IPv6 SR, reducing
    code duplication.
 
  - Supports pulling data from an skb frag into the linear area of an XDP
    buffer.
 
 Things we sprinkled into general kernel code
 --------------------------------------------
 
  - Generate netlink documentation from YAML using an integrated
    YAML parser.
 
 Driver API
 ----------
 
  - Support using IPv6 Flow Label in Rx hash computation and RSS queue
    selection.
 
  - Introduce API for fetching the DMA device for a given queue, allowing
    TCP zerocopy RX on more H/W setups.
 
  - Make XDP helpers compatible with unreadable memory, allowing more
    easily building DevMem-enabled drivers with a unified XDP/skbs
    datapath.
 
  - Add a new dedicated ethtool callback enabling drivers to provide the
    number of RX rings directly, improving efficiency and clarity in RX
    ring queries and RSS configuration.
 
  - Introduce a burst period for the health reporter, allowing better
    handling of multiple errors due to the same root cause.
 
  - Support for DPLL phase offset exponential moving average, controlling
    the average smoothing factor.
 
 Device drivers
 --------------

Pull block updates from Jens Axboe:

 - NVMe pull request via Keith:
     - FC target fixes (Daniel)
     - Authentication fixes and updates (Martin, Chris)
     - Admin controller handling (Kamaljit)
     - Target lockdep assertions (Max)
     - Keep-alive updates for discovery (Alastair)
     - Suspend quirk (Georg)

 - MD pull request via Yu:
     - Add support for a lockless bitmap.

       A key feature for the new bitmap are that the IO fastpath is
       lockless. If a user issues lots of write IO to the same bitmap
       bit in a short time, only the first write has additional overhead
       to update bitmap bit, no additional overhead for the following
       writes.

       By supporting only resync or recover written data, means in the
       case creating new array or replacing with a new disk, there is no
       need to do a full disk resync/recovery.

 - Switch ->getgeo() and ->bios_param() to using struct gendisk rather
   than struct block_device.

 - Rust block changes via Andreas. This series adds configuration via
   configfs and remote completion to the rnull driver. The series also
   includes a set of changes to the rust block device driver API: a few
   cleanup patches, and a few features supporting the rnull changes.

   The series removes the raw buffer formatting logic from
   `kernel::block` and improves the logic available in `kernel::string`
   to support the same use as the removed logic.

 - floppy arch cleanups

 - Reduce the number of dereferencing needed for ublk commands

 - Restrict supported sockets for nbd. Mostly done to eliminate a class
   of issues perpetually reported by syzbot, by using nonsensical socket
   setups.

 - A few s390 dasd block fixes

 - Fix a few issues around atomic writes

 - Improve DMA interation for integrity requests

 - Improve how iovecs are treated with regards to O_DIRECT aligment
   constraints.

   We used to require each segment to adhere to the constraints, now
   only the request as a whole needs to.

 - Clean up and improve p2p support, enabling use of p2p for metadata
   payloads

 - Improve locking of request lookup, using SRCU where appropriate

 - Use page references properly for brd, avoiding very long RCU sections

 - Fix ordering of recursively submitted IOs

 - Clean up and improve updating nr_requests for a live device

 - Various fixes and cleanups

3b2074c77d 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.

 Add new module parameter to the KVM module to enable CipherText Hiding and

 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

Merge tag 'vfs-6.18-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:

   - 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

   - Make INITRAMFS_PRESERVE_MTIME depend on BLK_DEV_INITRD

   - Use ns_capable_noaudit() when determining net sysctl permissions

   - Don't call path_put() under namespace semaphore in listmount() and
     statmount()"

a084c3c4a2 drivers/perf: hisi: Add tt_core_deprecated for compatibility
Previously tt_core is defined as config1:0-7 which may not cover all
the CPUs sharing L3C on platforms with more than 8 CPUs in a L3C. In
order to support such platforms extend tt_core to 16 bits, since no
spare space in config1, tt_core was moved to config2:0-15.

Though linux expects the users to retrieve the control encoding from
sysfs first for each option, it's possible if user doesn't follow
this and hardcoded tt_core in config1. So add an option
tt_core_deprecated for config1:0-7 for backward compatibility.

3ed17349f1
platform/x86: lg-laptop: Fix WMAB call in fan_mode_store()
When WMAB is called to set the fan mode, the new mode is read from either
bits 0-1 or bits 4-5 (depending on the value of some other EC register).
Thus when WMAB is called with bits 4-5 zeroed and called again with
bits 0-1 zeroed, the second call undoes the effect of the first call.
This causes writes to /sys/devices/platform/lg-laptop/fan_mode to have
no effect (and causes reads to always report a status of zero).

Fix this by calling WMAB once, with the mode set in bits 0,1 and 4,5.
When the fan mode is returned from WMAB it always has this form, so
there is no need to preserve the other bits.  As a bonus, the driver
now supports the "Performance" fan mode seen in the LG-provided Windows
control app, which provides less aggressive CPU throttling but louder
fan noise and shorter battery life.

Also, correct the documentation to reflect that 0 corresponds to the
default mode (what the Windows app calls "Optimal") and 1 corresponds
to the silent mode.

bad11557ee perf: Fujitsu: Add the Uncore PMU driver
This adds a new dynamic PMU to the Perf Events framework to program and
control the Uncore PMUs in Fujitsu chips.

This driver exports formatting and event information to sysfs so it can
be used by the perf user space tools with the syntaxes:

perf stat -e pci_iod0_pci0/ea-pci/ ls
perf stat -e pci_iod0_pci0/event=0x80/ ls
perf stat -e mac_iod0_mac0_ch0/ea-mac/ ls

69e0a3b490 mm: shmem: fix the strategy for the tmpfs 'huge=' options
After commit acd7ccb284 ("mm: shmem: add large folio support for
tmpfs"), we have extended tmpfs to allow any sized large folios, rather
than just PMD-sized large folios.

The strategy discussed previously was:

: Considering that tmpfs already has the 'huge=' option to control the
: PMD-sized large folios allocation, we can extend the 'huge=' option to
: allow any sized large folios.  The semantics of the 'huge=' mount option
: are:
: 
:     huge=never: no any sized large folios
:     huge=always: any sized large folios
:     huge=within_size: like 'always' but respect the i_size
:     huge=advise: like 'always' if requested with madvise()
: 
: Note: for tmpfs mmap() faults, due to the lack of a write size hint, still
: allocate the PMD-sized huge folios if huge=always/within_size/advise is
: set.
: 
: Moreover, the 'deny' and 'force' testing options controlled by
: '/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/shmem_enabled', still retain the same
: semantics.  The 'deny' can disable any sized large folios for tmpfs, while
: the 'force' can enable PMD sized large folios for tmpfs.

This means that when tmpfs is mounted with 'huge=always' or
'huge=within_size', tmpfs will allow getting a highest order hint based on
the size of write() and fallocate() paths.  It will then try each
allowable large order, rather than continually attempting to allocate
PMD-sized large folios as before.

However, this might break some user scenarios for those who want to use
PMD-sized large folios, such as the i915 driver which did not supply a
write size hint when allocating shmem [1].

Moreover, Hugh also complained that this will cause a regression in userspace
with 'huge=always' or 'huge=within_size'.

So, let's revisit the strategy for tmpfs large page allocation. A simple fix
would be to always try PMD-sized large folios first, and if that fails, fall
back to smaller large folios. This approach differs from the strategy for
large folio allocation used by other file systems, however, tmpfs is somewhat
different from other file systems, as quoted from David's opinion:

: There were opinions in the past that tmpfs should just behave like any
: other fs, and I think that's what we tried to satisfy here: use the write
: size as an indication.
: 
: I assume there will be workloads where either approach will be beneficial.
: I also assume that workloads that use ordinary fs'es could benefit from
: the same strategy (start with PMD), while others will clearly not.

e31c0eb103 drivers/perf: hisi: Add support for HiSilicon NoC PMU
Adds the support for HiSilicon NoC (Network on Chip) PMU which
will be used to monitor the events on the system bus. The PMU
device will be named after the SCL ID (either Super CPU cluster
or Super IO cluster) and the index ID, just similar to other
HiSilicon Uncore PMUs. Below PMU formats are provided besides
the event:

- ch: the transaction channel (data, request, response, etc) which
  can be used to filter the counting.
- tt_en: tracetag filtering enable. Just as other HiSilicon Uncore
  PMUs the NoC PMU supports only counting the transactions with
  tracetag.

The NoC PMU doesn't have an interrupt to indicate the overflow.
However we have a 64 bit counter which is large enough and it's
nearly impossible to overflow.

c0f303d7d4 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.

6c7c620585 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.

Pull vmescape mitigation fixes from Dave Hansen:
 "Mitigate vmscape issue with indirect branch predictor flushes.

  vmscape is a vulnerability that essentially takes Spectre-v2 and
  attacks host userspace from a guest. It particularly affects
  hypervisors like QEMU.

  Even if a hypervisor may not have any sensitive data like disk
  encryption keys, guest-userspace may be able to attack the
  guest-kernel using the hypervisor as a confused deputy.

  There are many ways to mitigate vmscape using the existing Spectre-v2
  defenses like IBRS variants or the IBPB flushes. This series focuses
  solely on IBPB because it works universally across vendors and all
  vulnerable processors. Further work doing vendor and model-specific
  optimizations can build on top of this if needed / wanted.

  Do the normal issue mitigation dance:

   - Add the CPU bug boilerplate

   - Add a list of vulnerable CPUs

   - Use IBPB to flush the branch predictors after running guests"

73d31c7626 media: i2c: ov6650: Drop unused driver
The ov6650 driver was introduced in v2.6.37 to support the OMAP1-based
Amstrad Delta video phone. The platform still has a board file in the
kernel, but support for the camera was dropped in commit ce548396a4
("media: mach-omap1: board-ams-delta.c: remove soc_camera dependencies")
in v5.9. The driver has been unused since as it has received neither
ACPI nor DT support.

The ov6650 driver is one of the last sensor drivers calling
clk_set_rate(). This is deprecated, and calls to the function are being
removed to avoid cargo-cult. As the driver is unlikely to ever be used
again, drop it instead of trying to avoid call clk_set_rate().

5ab829f197 md/md-llbitmap: introduce new lockless bitmap
Redundant data is used to enhance data fault tolerance, and the storage
method for redundant data vary depending on the RAID levels. And it's
important to maintain the consistency of redundant data.

Bitmap is used to record which data blocks have been synchronized and which
ones need to be resynchronized or recovered. Each bit in the bitmap
represents a segment of data in the array. When a bit is set, it indicates
that the multiple redundant copies of that data segment may not be
consistent. Data synchronization can be performed based on the bitmap after
power failure or readding a disk. If there is no bitmap, a full disk
synchronization is required.

Due to known performance issues with md-bitmap and the unreasonable
implementations:

 - self-managed IO submitting like filemap_write_page();
 - global spin_lock

I have decided not to continue optimizing based on the current bitmap
implementation, this new bitmap is invented without locking from IO fast
path and can be used with fast disks.

For designs and details, see the comments in drivers/md-llbitmap.c.

1d57628ff9 dm-pcache: add persistent cache target in device-mapper
This patch introduces dm-pcache, a new DM target that places a DAX-
capable persistent-memory device in front of any slower block device and
uses it as a high-throughput, low-latency  cache.

Design highlights
-----------------
- DAX data path – data is copied directly between DRAM and the pmem
  mapping, bypassing the block layer’s overhead.

- Segmented, crash-consistent layout
  - all layout metadata are dual-replicated CRC-protected.
  - atomic kset flushes; key replay on mount guarantees cache integrity
    even after power loss.

- Striped multi-tree index
  - Multi‑tree indexing for high parallelism.
  - overlap-resolution logic ensures non-intersecting cached extents.

- Background services
  - write-back worker flushes dirty keys in order, preserving backing-device
    crash consistency. This is important for checkpoint in cloud storage.
  - garbage collector reclaims clean segments when utilisation exceeds a
    tunable threshold.

- Data integrity – optional CRC32 on cached payload; metadata always protected.

afa3701c0e cgroup: cgroup.stat.local time accounting
There isn't yet a clear way to identify a set of "lost" time that
everyone (or at least a wider group of users) cares about. However,
users can perform some delay accounting by iterating over components of
interest. This patch allows cgroup v2 freezing time to be one of those
components.

Track the cumulative time that each v2 cgroup spends freezing and expose
it to userland via a new local stat file in cgroupfs. Thank you to
Michal, who provided the ASCII art in the updated documentation.

To access this value:
  $ mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/test
  $ cat /sys/fs/cgroup/test/cgroup.stat.local
  freeze_time_total 0

Ensure consistent freeze time reads with freeze_seq, a per-cgroup
sequence counter. Writes are serialized using the css_set_lock.

278033a225
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.

4fa7d880ae x86/bugs: Select best SRSO mitigation
The SRSO bug can theoretically be used to conduct user->user or guest->guest
attacks and requires a mitigation (namely IBPB instead of SBPB on context
switch) for these.  So mark SRSO as being applicable to the user->user and
guest->guest attack vectors.

Additionally, SRSO supports multiple mitigations which mitigate different
potential attack vectors.  Some CPUs are also immune to SRSO from
certain attack vectors (like user->kernel).

Use the specific attack vectors requiring mitigation to select the best
SRSO mitigation to avoid unnecessary performance hits.

beace86e61 Summary of significant series in this pull request:
- The 4 patch series "mm: ksm: prevent KSM from breaking merging of new
   VMAs" from Lorenzo Stoakes addresses an issue with KSM's
   PR_SET_MEMORY_MERGE mode: newly mapped VMAs were not eligible for
   merging with existing adjacent VMAs.
 
 - The 4 patch series "mm/damon: introduce DAMON_STAT for simple and
   practical access monitoring" from SeongJae Park adds a new kernel module
   which simplifies the setup and usage of DAMON in production
   environments.
 
 - The 6 patch series "stop passing a writeback_control to swap/shmem
   writeout" from Christoph Hellwig is a cleanup to the writeback code
   which removes a couple of pointers from struct writeback_control.
 
 - The 7 patch series "drivers/base/node.c: optimization and cleanups"
   from Donet Tom contains largely uncorrelated cleanups to the NUMA node
   setup and management code.
 
 - The 4 patch series "mm: userfaultfd: assorted fixes and cleanups" from
   Tal Zussman does some maintenance work on the userfaultfd code.
 
 - The 5 patch series "Readahead tweaks for larger folios" from Ryan
   Roberts implements some tuneups for pagecache readahead when it is
   reading into order>0 folios.
 
 - The 4 patch series "selftests/mm: Tweaks to the cow test" from Mark
   Brown provides some cleanups and consistency improvements to the
   selftests code.
 
 - The 4 patch series "Optimize mremap() for large folios" from Dev Jain
   does that.  A 37% reduction in execution time was measured in a
   memset+mremap+munmap microbenchmark.
 
 - The 5 patch series "Remove zero_user()" from Matthew Wilcox expunges
   zero_user() in favor of the more modern memzero_page().
 
 - The 3 patch series "mm/huge_memory: vmf_insert_folio_*() and
   vmf_insert_pfn_pud() fixes" from David Hildenbrand addresses some warts
   which David noticed in the huge page code.  These were not known to be
   causing any issues at this time.
 
 - The 3 patch series "mm/damon: use alloc_migrate_target() for
   DAMOS_MIGRATE_{HOT,COLD" from SeongJae Park provides some cleanup and
   consolidation work in DAMON.
 
 - The 3 patch series "use vm_flags_t consistently" from Lorenzo Stoakes
   uses vm_flags_t in places where we were inappropriately using other
   types.
 
 - The 3 patch series "mm/memfd: Reserve hugetlb folios before
   allocation" from Vivek Kasireddy increases the reliability of large page
   allocation in the memfd code.
 
 - The 14 patch series "mm: Remove pXX_devmap page table bit and pfn_t
   type" from Alistair Popple removes several now-unneeded PFN_* flags.
 
 - The 5 patch series "mm/damon: decouple sysfs from core" from SeongJae
   Park implememnts some cleanup and maintainability work in the DAMON
   sysfs layer.
 
 - The 5 patch series "madvise cleanup" from Lorenzo Stoakes does quite a
   lot of cleanup/maintenance work in the madvise() code.
 
 - The 4 patch series "madvise anon_name cleanups" from Vlastimil Babka
   provides additional cleanups on top or Lorenzo's effort.
 
 - The 11 patch series "Implement numa node notifier" from Oscar Salvador
   creates a standalone notifier for NUMA node memory state changes.
   Previously these were lumped under the more general memory on/offline
   notifier.
 
 - The 6 patch series "Make MIGRATE_ISOLATE a standalone bit" from Zi Yan
   cleans up the pageblock isolation code and fixes a potential issue which
   doesn't seem to cause any problems in practice.
 
 - The 5 patch series "selftests/damon: add python and drgn based DAMON
   sysfs functionality tests" from SeongJae Park adds additional drgn- and
   python-based DAMON selftests which are more comprehensive than the
   existing selftest suite.
 
 - The 5 patch series "Misc rework on hugetlb faulting path" from Oscar
   Salvador fixes a rather obscure deadlock in the hugetlb fault code and
   follows that fix with a series of cleanups.

   __cma_declare_contiguous_nid" from Mike Rapoport rationalizes and cleans
   up the highmem-specific code in the CMA allocator.

   (part 1)" from David Hildenbrand provides cleanups and
   future-preparedness to the migration code.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/damon: add trace events for auto-tuned
   monitoring intervals and DAMOS quota" from SeongJae Park adds some
   tracepoints to some DAMON auto-tuning code.
 
 - The 6 patch series "mm/damon: fix misc bugs in DAMON modules" from
   SeongJae Park does that.
 
 - The 6 patch series "mm/damon: misc cleanups" from SeongJae Park also
   does what it claims.

   Park replaces the damon_callback interface with a more general and
   powerful damon_call()+damos_walk() interface.

   from Lorenzo Stoakes implements a number of mremap cleanups (of course)
   in preparation for adding new mremap() functionality: newly permit the
   remapping of multiple VMAs when the user is specifying MREMAP_FIXED.  It
   still excludes some specialized situations where this cannot be
   performed reliably.

   interval.
 
 - The 4 patch series "Some randome fixes and cleanups to swapfile" from
   Kemeng Shi does what is claims.

   without tripping over the races inherent in operating on the live
   pageframe directly.
 
 - The 6 patch series "use per-vma locks for /proc/pid/maps reads" from
   Suren Baghdasaryan addresses the large contention issues which can be
   triggered by reads from that procfs file.  Latencies are reduced by more

   selftests for the /proc/pid/maps interface.
 
 - The 6 patch series "__folio_split() clean up" from Zi Yan cleans up
   __folio_split()!
 
 - The 7 patch series "Optimize mprotect() for large folios" from Dev

   with large folios.
 
 - The 2 patch series "selftests/mm: reuse FORCE_READ to replace "asm
   volatile("" : "+r" (XXX));" and some cleanup" from wang lian does some
   cleanup work in the selftests code.
 
 - The 3 patch series "tools/testing: expand mremap testing" from Lorenzo
   Stoakes extends the mremap() selftest in several ways, including adding
   more checking of Lorenzo's recently added "permit mremap() move of

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
 "As usual, many cleanups. The below blurbiage describes 42 patchsets.
  21 of those are partially or fully cleanup work. "cleans up",
  "cleanup", "maintainability", "rationalizes", etc.

  I never knew the MM code was so dirty.

  "mm: ksm: prevent KSM from breaking merging of new VMAs" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
     addresses an issue with KSM's PR_SET_MEMORY_MERGE mode: newly
     mapped VMAs were not eligible for merging with existing adjacent
     VMAs.

  "mm/damon: introduce DAMON_STAT for simple and practical access monitoring" (SeongJae Park)
     adds a new kernel module which simplifies the setup and usage of
     DAMON in production environments.

  "stop passing a writeback_control to swap/shmem writeout" (Christoph Hellwig)
     is a cleanup to the writeback code which removes a couple of
     pointers from struct writeback_control.

  "drivers/base/node.c: optimization and cleanups" (Donet Tom)
     contains largely uncorrelated cleanups to the NUMA node setup and
     management code.

  "mm: userfaultfd: assorted fixes and cleanups" (Tal Zussman)
     does some maintenance work on the userfaultfd code.

  "Readahead tweaks for larger folios" (Ryan Roberts)
     implements some tuneups for pagecache readahead when it is reading
     into order>0 folios.

  "selftests/mm: Tweaks to the cow test" (Mark Brown)
     provides some cleanups and consistency improvements to the
     selftests code.

  "Optimize mremap() for large folios" (Dev Jain)
     does that. A 37% reduction in execution time was measured in a
     memset+mremap+munmap microbenchmark.

  "Remove zero_user()" (Matthew Wilcox)
     expunges zero_user() in favor of the more modern memzero_page().

  "mm/huge_memory: vmf_insert_folio_*() and vmf_insert_pfn_pud() fixes" (David Hildenbrand)
     addresses some warts which David noticed in the huge page code.
     These were not known to be causing any issues at this time.

  "mm/damon: use alloc_migrate_target() for DAMOS_MIGRATE_{HOT,COLD" (SeongJae Park)
     provides some cleanup and consolidation work in DAMON.

  "use vm_flags_t consistently" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
     uses vm_flags_t in places where we were inappropriately using other
     types.

  "mm/memfd: Reserve hugetlb folios before allocation" (Vivek Kasireddy)
     increases the reliability of large page allocation in the memfd
     code.

  "mm: Remove pXX_devmap page table bit and pfn_t type" (Alistair Popple)
     removes several now-unneeded PFN_* flags.

  "mm/damon: decouple sysfs from core" (SeongJae Park)
     implememnts some cleanup and maintainability work in the DAMON
     sysfs layer.

  "madvise cleanup" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
     does quite a lot of cleanup/maintenance work in the madvise() code.

  "madvise anon_name cleanups" (Vlastimil Babka)
     provides additional cleanups on top or Lorenzo's effort.

  "Implement numa node notifier" (Oscar Salvador)
     creates a standalone notifier for NUMA node memory state changes.
     Previously these were lumped under the more general memory
     on/offline notifier.

  "Make MIGRATE_ISOLATE a standalone bit" (Zi Yan)
     cleans up the pageblock isolation code and fixes a potential issue
     which doesn't seem to cause any problems in practice.

  "selftests/damon: add python and drgn based DAMON sysfs functionality tests" (SeongJae Park)
     adds additional drgn- and python-based DAMON selftests which are
     more comprehensive than the existing selftest suite.

4b290aae78 Summary
* Move sysctls out of the kern_table array
 
   This is the final move of ctl_tables into their respective subsystems. Only 5
   (out of the original 50) will remain in kernel/sysctl.c file; these handle
   either sysctl or common arch variables.
 
   By decentralizing sysctl registrations, subsystem maintainers regain control
   over their sysctl interfaces, improving maintainability and reducing the
   likelihood of merge conflicts.
 
 * docs: Remove false positives from check-sysctl-docs
 
   Stopped falsely identifying sysctls as undocumented or unimplemented in the
   check-sysctl-docs script. This script can now be used to automatically
   identify if documentation is missing.
 
 * Testing
 
   All these have been in linux-next since rc3, giving them a solid 3 to 4 weeks
   worth of testing. Additionally, sysctl selftests and kunit were also run
   locally on my x86_64

bf76f23aa1 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)

0b29600a30 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 interrupt chip driver updates from Thomas Gleixner:

 - 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

fcb117e075 gpio updates for v6.17-rc1
GPIOLIB core:
 - introduce a parallel, limited sysfs user ABI that doesn't expose the
   global GPIO numbers to user-space while maintaining backward
   compatibility with the end goal of it completely replacing the existing
   interface, allowing us to remove it
 - remove the legacy devm_gpio_request() routine which has no more users
 - start the process of allowing to compile-out the legacy parts of the
   GPIO core for users who don't need it by introducing a new Kconfig
   option: GPIOLIB_LEGACY
 - don't use global GPIO numbers in debugfs output from the core code
   (drivers still do it, the work is ongoing)
 - start the process of moving the fields specific to the gpio-mmio helper
   out of the core struct gpio_chip into their own structure that wraps
   it: create a new header with modern interfaces and convert several
   drivers to using it
 - remove the platform data structure associated with the gpio-mmio helper
   from the kernel after having converted all remaining users to generic
   device properties
 - remove legacy struct gpio definition as it has no more users
 
 New drivers:
 - add the GPIO driver for the Apple System Management Controller
 
 Driver improvements:
 - add support for new models to gpio-adp5585, gpio-tps65219 and
   gpio-pca953x
 - extend the interrupt support in gpio-loongson-64bit
 - allow to mark the simulated GPIO lines as invalid in gpio-sim
 - convert all remaining GPIO drivers to using the new GPIO value setter
   callbacks
 - convert gpio-rcar to using simple device power management ops callbacks
 - don't check if current direction of a line is output before setting
   the value in gpio-pisosr and ti-fpc202: the GPIO core already handles
   that
 - also drop unneeded GPIO range checks in drivers, the core already makes
   sure we're within bounds when calling driver callbacks
 - use dev_fwnode() where applicable across GPIO drivers
 - set line value in gpio-zynqmp-modepin and gpio-twl6040 when the user
   wants to change direction of the pin to output even though these
   drivers don't need to do anything else to actually set the direction,
   otherwise a call like gpiod_direction_output(d, 1) will not result in
   the line driver high
 - remove the reduntant call to pm_runtime_mark_last_busy() from
   gpio-arizona
 - use lock guards in gpio-cadence and gpio-mxc
 - check the return values of regmap functions in gpio-wcd934x and
   gpio-tps65912
 - use better regmap interfaces in gpio-wcove and gpio-pca953x
 - remove dummy GPIO chip callbacks from several drivers in cases where
   the GPIO core can already handle their absence
 - allow building gpio-palmas as a module
 
 Fixes:
 - use correct bit widths (according to the documentation) in gpio-virtio
 
 Device-tree bindings:
 - convert several of the legacy .txt documents for many different devices
   to YAML, improving automatic validation
 - create a "trivial" GPIO DT schema that covers a wide range of simple
   hardware that share a set of basic GPIO properties
 - document new HW: Apple MAC SMC GPIO block and adp5589 I/O expander
 - document a new model for pca95xx
 - add and/or remove properties in YAML documents for gpio-rockchip,
   fsl,qoriq-gpio, arm,pl061 and gpio-xilinx
 
 Misc:
 - some minor refactoring in several places, adding/removing forward
   declarations, moving defines to better places, constify the arguments
   in some functions, remove duplicate includes, etc.
 - documentation updates

Pull gpio updates from Bartosz Golaszewski:
 "There's one new driver (Apple SMC) and extensions to existing drivers
  for supporting new HW models. A lot of different impovements across
  drivers and in core GPIO code. Details on that are in the signed tag
  as usual.

  We managed to remove some of the legacy APIs. Arnd Bergmann started to
  work on making the legacy bits optional so that we may compile them
  only for older platforms that still really need them.

  Rob Herring has done a lot of work to convert legacy .txt dt-bindings
  for GPIO controllers to YAML. There are only a few left now in the
  GPIO tree.

  A big part of the commits in this PR concern the conversion of GPIO
  drivers to using the new line value setter callbacks. This conversion
  is now complete treewide (unless I've missed something) and once all
  the changes from different trees land in mainline, I'll send you
  another PR containing a commit dropping the legacy callbacks from the
  tree.

  As the quest to pay back technical dept never really ends, we're
  starting another set of interface conversions, this time it's about
  moving fields specific to only a handful of drivers using the
  gpio-mmio helper out of the core gpio_chip structure that every
  controller implements and uses. This cycle we introduce a new set of
  APIs and convert a few drivers under drivers/gpio/, next cycle we'll
  convert remaining modules treewide (in gpio, pinctrl and mfd trees)
  and finally remove the old interfaces and move the gpio-mmio fields
  into their own structure wrapping gpio_chip.

  One last change I should mention here is the rework of the sysfs
  interface. In 2016, we introduced the GPIO character device as the
  preferred alternative to the sysfs class under /sys/class/gpio. While
  it has seen a wide adoption with the help of its user-space
  counterpart - libgpiod - there are still users who prefer the
  simplicity of sysfs.

  As far as the GPIO subsystem is concerned, the problem is not the
  existince of the GPIO class as such but rather the fact that it
  exposes the global GPIO numbers to the user-space, stopping us from
  ever being able to remove the numberspace from the kernel. To that
  end, this release we introduced a parallel, limited sysfs interface
  that doesn't expose these numbers and only implements a subset of
  features that are relevant to the existing users. This is a result of
  several discussions over the course of last year and should allow us
  to remove the legacy part some time in the future.

  Summary:

  GPIOLIB core:
   - introduce a parallel, limited sysfs user ABI that doesn't expose
     the global GPIO numbers to user-space while maintaining backward
     compatibility with the end goal of it completely replacing the

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.

  Specifics:

   - Fix two initialization ordering issues in the cpufreq core and a
     governor initialization error path in it, and clean it up (Lifeng
     Zheng)

   - Add Granite Rapids support in no-HWP mode to the intel_pstate

Merge tag 'selinux-pr-20250725' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pcmoore/selinux

Pull selinux updates from Paul Moore:

 - Introduce the concept of a SELinux "neveraudit" type which prevents
   all auditing of the given type/domain.

   Taken by itself, the benefit of marking a SELinux domain with the
   "neveraudit" tag is likely not very interesting, especially given the
   significant overlap with the "dontaudit" tag.

   However, given that the "neveraudit" tag applies to *all* auditing of
   the tagged domain, we can do some fairly interesting optimizations
   when a SELinux domain is marked as both "permissive" and "dontaudit"
   (think of the unconfined_t domain).

   While this pull request includes optimized inode permission and
   getattr hooks, these optimizations require SELinux policy changes,
   therefore the improvements may not be visible on standard downstream
   Linux distos for a period of time.

 - Continue the deprecation process of /sys/fs/selinux/user.

   After removing the associated userspace code in 2020, we marked the
   /sys/fs/selinux/user interface as deprecated in Linux v6.13 with
   pr_warn() and the usual documention update.

   This adds a five second sleep after the pr_warn(), following a
   previous deprecation process pattern that has worked well for us in
   the past in helping identify any existing users that we haven't yet
   reached.

 - Add a __GFP_NOWARN flag to our initial hash table allocation.

   Fuzzers such a syzbot often attempt abnormally large SELinux policy
   loads, which the SELinux code gracefully handles by checking for
   allocation failures, but not before the allocator emits a warning
   which causes the automated fuzzing to flag this as an error and
   report it to the list. While we want to continue to support the work
   done by the fuzzing teams, we want to focus on proper issues and not
   an error case that is already handled safely. Add a NOWARN flag to
   quiet the allocator and prevent syzbot from tripping on this again.

 - Remove some unnecessary selinuxfs cleanup code, courtesy of Al.

 - Update the SELinux in-kernel documentation with pointers to
   additional information.

a27848a035 docs: update THP documentation to clarify sysfs "never" setting
Rather confusingly, setting all Transparent Huge Page sysfs settings to
"never" does not in fact result in THP being globally disabled.

Rather, it results in khugepaged being disabled, but one can still obtain
THP pages using madvise(..., MADV_COLLAPSE).

This is something that has remained poorly documented for some time, and
it is likely the received wisdom of most users of THP that never does, in
fact, mean never.

It is therefore important to highlight, very clearly, that this is not the
case.

7f0c6675b3 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.

57fbad15c2 stackleak: Rename STACKLEAK to KSTACK_ERASE
In preparation for adding Clang sanitizer coverage stack depth tracking
that can support stack depth callbacks:

- Add the new top-level CONFIG_KSTACK_ERASE option which will be
  implemented either with the stackleak GCC plugin, or with the Clang
  stack depth callback support.
- Rename CONFIG_GCC_PLUGIN_STACKLEAK as needed to CONFIG_KSTACK_ERASE,
  but keep it for anything specific to the GCC plugin itself.
- Rename all exposed "STACKLEAK" names and files to "KSTACK_ERASE" (named
  for what it does rather than what it protects against), but leave as
  many of the internals alone as possible to avoid even more churn.

While here, also split "prev_lowest_stack" into CONFIG_KSTACK_ERASE_METRICS,
since that's the only place it is referenced from.

261743b013 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.

646faf36d7 cgroup: Add compatibility option for content of /proc/cgroups
/proc/cgroups lists only v1 controllers by default, however, this is
only enforced since the commit af000ce852 ("cgroup: Do not report
unavailable v1 controllers in /proc/cgroups") and there is software in
the wild that uses content of /proc/cgroups to decide on availability of
v2 (sic) controllers.

Add a boottime param that can bring back the previous behavior for
setups where the check in the software cannot be changed and it causes
e.g. unintended OOMs.

Also, this patch takes out cgrp_v1_visible from cgroup1_subsys_absent()
guard since it's only important to check which hierarchy (v1 vs v2) the
subsys is attached to. This has no effect on the printed message but
the code is cleaner since cgrp_v1_visible is really about mounted
hierarchies, not the content of /proc/cgroups.

ea92b6046d 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.

1caa1b0509 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.

f747cde5e7 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.

db6cc3f4ac Revert "sched/numa: add statistics of numa balance task"
This reverts commit ad6b26b6a0.

This commit introduces per-memcg/task NUMA balance statistics, but
unfortunately it introduced a NULL pointer exception due to the following
race condition: After a swap task candidate was chosen, its mm_struct
pointer was set to NULL due to task exit.  Later, when performing the
actual task swapping, the p->mm caused the problem.

CPU0                                   CPU1
:
...
task_numa_migrate
     task_numa_find_cpu
      task_numa_compare
        # a normal task p is chosen
        env->best_task = p

                                          # p exit:
                                          exit_signals(p);
                                             p->flags |= PF_EXITING
                                          exit_mm
                                             p->mm = NULL;

      migrate_swap_stop
        __migrate_swap_task((arg->src_task, arg->dst_cpu)
         count_memcg_event_mm(p->mm, NUMA_TASK_SWAP)# p->mm is NULL

task_lock() should be held and the PF_EXITING flag needs to be checked to
prevent this from happening.  After discussion, the conclusion was that
adding a lock is not worthwhile for some statistics calculations.  Revert
the change and rely on the tracepoint for this purpose.

674e2b2479 smack: fix bug: setting task label silently ignores input garbage
This command:
    # echo foo/bar >/proc/$$/attr/smack/current

gives the task a label 'foo' w/o indication
that label does not match input.
Setting the label with lsm_set_self_attr() syscall
behaves identically.

This occures because:

1) smk_parse_smack() is used to convert input to a label
2) smk_parse_smack() takes only that part from the
   beginning of the input that looks like a label.
3) `/' is prohibited in labels, so only "foo" is taken.

(2) is by design, because smk_parse_smack() is used
for parsing strings which are more than just a label.

Silent failure is not a good thing, and there are two
indicators that this was not done intentionally:

    (size >= SMK_LONGLABEL) ~> invalid

clause at the beginning of the do_setattr() and the
"Returns the length of the smack label" claim
in the do_setattr() description.

So I fixed this by adding one tiny check:
the taken label length == input length.

Since input length is now strictly controlled,
I changed the two ways of setting label

   smack_setselfattr(): lsm_set_self_attr() syscall
   smack_setprocattr(): > /proc/.../current

to accommodate the divergence in
what they understand by "input length":

  smack_setselfattr counts mandatory \0 into input length,
  smack_setprocattr does not.

  smack_setprocattr allows various trailers after label

Related changes:

* fixed description for smk_parse_smack

* allow unprivileged tasks validate label syntax.

* extract smk_parse_label_len() from smk_parse_smack()
  so parsing may be done w/o string allocation.

* extract smk_import_valid_label() from smk_import_entry()
  to avoid repeated parsing.

* smk_parse_smack(): scan null-terminated strings
  for no more than SMK_LONGLABEL(256) characters

* smack_setselfattr(): require struct lsm_ctx . flags == 0
  to reserve them for future.

78fc6a94be smack: fix bug: invalid label of unix socket file
According to [1], the label of a UNIX domain socket (UDS)
file (i.e., the filesystem object representing the socket)
is not supposed to participate in Smack security.

To achieve this, [1] labels UDS files with "*"
in smack_d_instantiate().

Before [2], smack_d_instantiate() was responsible
for initializing Smack security for all inodes,
except ones under /proc

[2] imposed the sole responsibility for initializing
inode security for newly created filesystem objects
on smack_inode_init_security().

However, smack_inode_init_security() lacks some logic
present in smack_d_instantiate().
In particular, it does not label UDS files with "*".

This patch adds the missing labeling of UDS files
with "*" to smack_inode_init_security().

Labeling UDS files with "*" in smack_d_instantiate()
still works for stale UDS files that already exist on
disk. Stale UDS files are useless, but I keep labeling
them for consistency and maybe to make easier for user
to delete them.

Compared to [1], this version introduces the following
improvements:

  * UDS file label is held inside inode only
    and not saved to xattrs.

  * relabeling UDS files (setxattr, removexattr, etc.)
    is blocked.

a2fc422ed7 syscall_user_dispatch: Add PR_SYS_DISPATCH_INCLUSIVE_ON
There are two possible scenarios for syscall filtering:
 - having a trusted/allowed range of PCs, and intercepting everything else
 - or the opposite: a single untrusted/intercepted range and allowing
   everything else (this is relevant for any kind of sandboxing scenario,
   or monitoring behavior of a single library)

The current API only allows the former use case due to allowed
range wrap-around check. Add PR_SYS_DISPATCH_INCLUSIVE_ON that
enables the second use case.

38b9342ee6 Documentation: cgroup: add section explaining controller availability
Add "Availability" section to Control Group v2 docs. It describes the
meaning of a controller being available in a cgroup, complementing the
existing "Enabling and Disabling" section.

This update improves the clarity of cgroup controller management by
explicitly distinguishing between:

1. Availability – when a controller is supported by the kernel and
   listed in "cgroup.controllers", making its interface files accessible
   in the cgroup's directory.
2. Enabling – when a controller is enabled via explicitly writing the
   name of the controller to "cgroup.subtree_control" to control
   distribution of resource across the cgroup's immediate children.

As an example, consider

/sys/fs/cgroup # cat cgroup.controllers
cpuset cpu io memory hugetlb pids misc
/sys/fs/cgroup # cat cgroup.subtree_control # No controllers enabled by default
/sys/fs/cgroup # echo +cpu +memory > cgroup.subtree_control # enabling "cpu" and "memory"
/sys/fs/cgroup # cat cgroup.subtree_control
cpu memory                   # cpu and memory enabled in /sys/fs/cgroup
/sys/fs/cgroup # mkdir foo_cgrp
/sys/fs/cgroup # cd foo_cgrp/
/sys/fs/cgroup/foo_cgrp # cat cgroup.controllers
cpu memory                   # cpu and memory available in 'foo_cgrp'
/sys/fs/cgroup/foo_cgrp # cat cgroup.subtree_control  # empty by default
/sys/fs/cgroup/foo_cgrp # ls
cgroup.controllers      cpu.max.burst           memory.numa_stat
cgroup.events           cpu.pressure            memory.oom.group
cgroup.freeze           cpu.stat                memory.peak
cgroup.kill             cpu.stat.local          memory.pressure
cgroup.max.depth        cpu.weight              memory.reclaim
cgroup.max.descendants  cpu.weight.nice         memory.stat
cgroup.pressure         io.pressure             memory.swap.current
cgroup.procs            memory.current          memory.swap.events
cgroup.stat             memory.events           memory.swap.high
cgroup.subtree_control  memory.events.local     memory.swap.max
cgroup.threads          memory.high             memory.swap.peak
cgroup.type             memory.low              memory.zswap.current
cpu.idle                memory.max              memory.zswap.max
cpu.max                 memory.min              memory.zswap.writeback

In this example, "cpu" and "memory" are enabled in the root cgroup,
making them available in "foo_cgrp". This exposes the corresponding
interface files in "foo_cgrp/", allowing resource control of processes
in that cgroup. However, these controllers are not yet enabled in
"foo_cgrp" itself.

Once a controller is available in a cgroup it can be used to resource
control processes of the cgroup.

de1c831a78 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".

c0c9379f23 USB/Thunderbolt changes for 6.16-rc1
Here is the big set of USB and Thunderbolt changes for 6.16-rc1.
 Included in here are the following:
   - USB offload support for audio devices.  I think this takes the
     record for the most number of patch series (30+) over the longest
     period of time (2+ years) to get merged properly.  Many props go to
     Wesley Cheng for seeing this effort through, they took a major
     out-of-tree hacked-up-monstrosity that was created by multiple
     vendors for their specific devices, got it all merged into a
     semi-coherent set of changes, and got all of the different major
     subsystems to agree on how this should be implemented both with
     changes to their code as well as userspace apis, AND wrangled the
     hardware companies into agreeing to go forward with this, despite
     making them all redo work they had already done in their private
     device trees.  This feature offers major power savings on embedded
     devices where a USB audio stream can continue to flow while the rest
     of the system is sleeping, something that devices running on battery
     power really care about.  There are still some more small tweaks
     left to be done here, and those patches are still out for review and
     arguing among the different hardware companies, but this is a major
     step forward and a great example of how to do upstream development
     well.
   - small number of thunderbolt fixes and updates, things seem to be
     slowing down here (famous last words...)
   - xhci refactors and reworking to try to handle some rough corner
     cases in some hardware implementations where things don't always
     work properly
   - typec driver updates
   - USB3 power management reworking and updates
   - Removal of some old and orphaned UDC gadget drivers that had not
     been used in a very long time, dropping over 11 thousand lines from
     the tree, always a nice thing, making up for the 12k lines added for
     the USB offload feature.
   - lots of little updates and fixes in different drivers
 
 All of these have been in linux-next for over 2 weeks, the USB offload
 logic has been in there for 8 weeks now, with no reported issues

10f885d63a arm64: Add override for MPAM
As the message of the commit 09e6b306f3 ("arm64: cpufeature: discover
CPU support for MPAM") already states, if a buggy firmware fails to
either enable MPAM or emulate the trap as if it were disabled, the
kernel will just fail to boot.  While upgrading the firmware should be
the best solution, we have some hardware of which the vendor have made
no response 2 months after we requested a firmware update.  Allow
overriding it so our devices don't become some e-waste.

ad6b26b6a0 sched/numa: add statistics of numa balance task
On systems with NUMA balancing enabled, it has been found that tracking
task activities resulting from NUMA balancing is beneficial.  NUMA
balancing employs two mechanisms for task migration: one is to migrate
a task to an idle CPU within its preferred node, and the other is to
swap tasks located on different nodes when they are on each other's
preferred nodes.

The kernel already provides NUMA page migration statistics in
/sys/fs/cgroup/mytest/memory.stat and /proc/{PID}/sched.  However, it
lacks statistics regarding task migration and swapping.  Therefore,
relevant counts for task migration and swapping should be added.

The following two new fields:

numa_task_migrated
numa_task_swapped

will be shown in /sys/fs/cgroup/{GROUP}/memory.stat, /proc/{PID}/sched
and /proc/vmstat.

Introducing both per-task and per-memory cgroup (memcg) NUMA balancing
statistics facilitates a rapid evaluation of the performance and
resource utilization of the target workload.  For instance, users can
first identify the container with high NUMA balancing activity and then
further pinpoint a specific task within that group, and subsequently
adjust the memory policy for that task.  In short, although it is
possible to iterate through /proc/$pid/sched to locate the problematic
task, the introduction of aggregated NUMA balancing activity for tasks
within each memcg can assist users in identifying the task more
efficiently through a divide-and-conquer approach.

As Libo Chen pointed out, the memcg event relies on the text names in
vmstat_text, and /proc/vmstat generates corresponding items based on
vmstat_text.  Thus, the relevant task migration and swapping events
introduced in vmstat_text also need to be populated by
count_vm_numa_event(), otherwise these values are zero in /proc/vmstat.

In theory, task migration and swap events are part of the scheduler's
activities.  The reason for exposing them through the
memory.stat/vmstat interface is that we already have NUMA balancing
statistics in memory.stat/vmstat, and these events are closely related
to each other.  Following Shakeel's suggestion, we describe the
end-to-end flow/story of all these events occurring on a timeline for
future reference:

The goal of NUMA balancing is to co-locate a task and its memory pages
on the same NUMA node.  There are two strategies: migrate the pages to
the task's node, or migrate the task to the node where its pages
reside.

Suppose a task p1 is running on Node 0, but its pages are located on
Node 1.  NUMA page fault statistics for p1 reveal its "page footprint"
across nodes.  If NUMA balancing detects that most of p1's pages are on
Node 1:

1.Page Migration Attempt:
The Numa balance first tries to migrate p1's pages to Node 0.
The numa_page_migrate counter increments.

2.Task Migration Strategies:
After the page migration finishes, Numa balance checks every
1 second to see if p1 can be migrated to Node 1.

Case 2.1: Idle CPU Available

  If Node 1 has an idle CPU, p1 is directly scheduled there.  This
  event is logged as numa_task_migrated.

Case 2.2: No Idle CPU (Task Swap)

  If all CPUs on Node1 are busy, direct migration could cause CPU
  contention or load imbalance.  Instead: The Numa balance selects a
  candidate task p2 on Node 1 that prefers Node 0 (e.g., due to its own
  page footprint).  p1 and p2 are swapped.  This cross-node swap is
  recorded as numa_task_swapped.

 - The 8 patch series "Misc folio patches for 6.16" from Matthew Wilcox
   is a shower of largely unrelated folio infrastructure changes which
   clean things up and better prepare us for future work.
 
 - The 3 patch series "memory,x86,acpi: hotplug memory alignment
   advisement" from Gregory Price adds early-init code to prevent x86 from
   leaving physical memory unused when physical address regions are not
   aligned to memory block size.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/compaction: allow more aggressive proactive
   compaction" from Michal Clapinski provides some tuning of the (sadly,
   hard-coded (more sadly, not auto-tuned)) thresholds for our invokation
   of proactive compaction.  In a simple test case, the reduction of a guest
   VM's memory consumption was dramatic.
 
 - The 8 patch series "Minor cleanups and improvements to swap freeing
   code" from Kemeng Shi provides some code cleaups and a small efficiency
   improvement to this part of our swap handling code.
 
 - The 6 patch series "ptrace: introduce PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO API"
   from Dmitry Levin adds the ability for a ptracer to modify syscalls
   arguments.  At this time we can alter only "system call information that
   are used by strace system call tampering, namely, syscall number,
   syscall arguments, and syscall return value.
 
   This series should have been incorporated into mm.git's "non-MM"
   branch, but I goofed.
 
 - The 3 patch series "fs/proc: extend the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl to report
   guard regions" from Andrei Vagin extends the info returned by the
   PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl against /proc/pid/pagemap.  This permits CRIU to more
   efficiently get at the info about guard regions.
 
 - The 2 patch series "Fix parameter passed to page_mapcount_is_type()"
   from Gavin Shan implements that fix.  No runtime effect is expected
   because validate_page_before_insert() happens to fix up this error.
 
 - The 3 patch series "kernel/events/uprobes: uprobe_write_opcode()
   rewrite" from David Hildenbrand basically brings uprobe text poking into
   the current decade.  Remove a bunch of hand-rolled implementation in
   favor of using more current facilities.
 
 - The 3 patch series "mm/ptdump: Drop assumption that pxd_val() is u64"
   from Anshuman Khandual provides enhancements and generalizations to the
   pte dumping code.  This might be needed when 128-bit Page Table
   Descriptors are enabled for ARM.
 
 - The 12 patch series "Always call constructor for kernel page tables"
   from Kevin Brodsky "ensures that the ctor/dtor is always called for
   kernel pgtables, as it already is for user pgtables".  This permits the
   addition of more functionality such as "insert hooks to protect page
   tables".  This change does result in various architectures performing
   unnecesary work, but this is fixed up where it is anticipated to occur.
 
 - The 9 patch series "Rust support for mm_struct, vm_area_struct, and
   mmap" from Alice Ryhl adds plumbing to permit Rust access to core MM
   structures.
 
 - The 3 patch series "fix incorrectly disallowed anonymous VMA merges"
   from Lorenzo Stoakes takes advantage of some VMA merging opportunities
   which we've been missing for 15 years.
 
 - The 4 patch series "mm/madvise: batch tlb flushes for MADV_DONTNEED
   and MADV_FREE" from SeongJae Park optimizes process_madvise()'s TLB
   flushing.  Instead of flushing each address range in the provided iovec,
   we batch the flushing across all the iovec entries.  The syscall's cost
   was approximately halved with a microbenchmark which was designed to
   load this particular operation.
 
 - The 6 patch series "Track node vacancy to reduce worst case allocation
   counts" from Sidhartha Kumar makes the maple tree smarter about its node
   preallocation.  stress-ng mmap performance increased by single-digit
   percentages and the amount of unnecessarily preallocated memory was
   dramaticelly reduced.
 
 - The 3 patch series "mm/gup: Minor fix, cleanup and improvements" from
   Baoquan He removes a few unnecessary things which Baoquan noted when
   reading the code.
 
 - The 3 patch series ""Enhance sysfs handling for memory hotplug in
   weighted interleave" from Rakie Kim "enhances the weighted interleave
   policy in the memory management subsystem by improving sysfs handling,
   fixing memory leaks, and introducing dynamic sysfs updates for memory
   hotplug support".  Fixes things on error paths which we are unlikely to
   hit.
 
 - The 7 patch series "mm/damon: auto-tune DAMOS for NUMA setups
   including tiered memory" from SeongJae Park introduces new DAMOS quota
   goal metrics which eliminate the manual tuning which is required when
   utilizing DAMON for memory tiering.
 
 - The 5 patch series "mm/vmalloc.c: code cleanup and improvements" from
   Baoquan He provides cleanups and small efficiency improvements which
   Baoquan found via code inspection.
 
 - The 2 patch series "vmscan: enforce mems_effective during demotion"
   from Gregory Price "changes reclaim to respect cpuset.mems_effective
   during demotion when possible".  because "presently, reclaim explicitly
   ignores cpuset.mems_effective when demoting, which may cause the cpuset
   settings to violated." "This is useful for isolating workloads on a
   multi-tenant system from certain classes of memory more consistently."
 
 - The 2 patch series ""Clean up split_huge_pmd_locked() and remove
   unnecessary folio pointers" from Gavin Guo provides minor cleanups and
   efficiency gains in in the huge page splitting and migrating code.
 
 - The 3 patch series "Use kmem_cache for memcg alloc" from Huan Yang
   creates a slab cache for `struct mem_cgroup', yielding improved memory
   utilization.
 
 - The 4 patch series "add max arg to swappiness in memory.reclaim and
   lru_gen" from Zhongkun He adds a new "max" argument to the "swappiness="
   argument for memory.reclaim MGLRU's lru_gen.  This directs proactive
   reclaim to reclaim from only anon folios rather than file-backed folios.
 
 - The 17 patch series "kexec: introduce Kexec HandOver (KHO)" from Mike
   Rapoport is the first step on the path to permitting the kernel to
   maintain existing VMs while replacing the host kernel via file-based
   kexec.  At this time only memblock's reserve_mem is preserved.
 
 - The 7 patch series "mm: Introduce for_each_valid_pfn()" from David
   Woodhouse provides and uses a smarter way of looping over a pfn range.
   By skipping ranges of invalid pfns.
 
 - The 2 patch series "sched/numa: Skip VMA scanning on memory pinned to
   one NUMA node via cpuset.mems" from Libo Chen removes a lot of pointless
   VMA scanning when a task is pinned a single NUMA mode.  Dramatic
   performance benefits were seen in some real world cases.
 
 - The 2 patch series "JFS: Implement migrate_folio for
   jfs_metapage_aops" from Shivank Garg addresses a warning which occurs
   during memory compaction when using JFS.
 
 - The 4 patch series "move all VMA allocation, freeing and duplication
   logic to mm" from Lorenzo Stoakes moves some VMA code from kernel/fork.c
   into the more appropriate mm/vma.c.
 
 - The 6 patch series "mm, swap: clean up swap cache mapping helper" from
   Kairui Song provides code consolidation and cleanups related to the
   folio_index() function.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/gup: Cleanup memfd_pin_folios()" from Vishal
   Moola does that.
 
 - The 8 patch series "memcg: Fix test_memcg_min/low test failures" from
   Waiman Long addresses some bogus failures which are being reported by
   the test_memcontrol selftest.
 
 - The 3 patch series "eliminate mmap() retry merge, add .mmap_prepare
   hook" from Lorenzo Stoakes commences the deprecation of
   file_operations.mmap() in favor of the new
   file_operations.mmap_prepare().  The latter is more restrictive and
   prevents drivers from messing with things in ways which, amongst other
   problems, may defeat VMA merging.
 
 - The 4 patch series "memcg: decouple memcg and objcg stocks"" from
   Shakeel Butt decouples the per-cpu memcg charge cache from the objcg's
   one.  This is a step along the way to making memcg and objcg charging
   NMI-safe, which is a BPF requirement.
 
 - The 6 patch series "mm/damon: minor fixups and improvements for code,
   tests, and documents" from SeongJae Park is "yet another batch of
   miscellaneous DAMON changes.  Fix and improve minor problems in code,
   tests and documents."
 
 - The 7 patch series "memcg: make memcg stats irq safe" from Shakeel
   Butt converts memcg stats to be irq safe.  Another step along the way to
   making memcg charging and stats updates NMI-safe, a BPF requirement.
 
 - The 4 patch series "Let unmap_hugepage_range() and several related
   functions take folio instead of page" from Fan Ni provides folio
   conversions in the hugetlb code.

   This series should have been incorporated into mm.git's "non-MM"
   branch, but I goofed.

 - "fs/proc: extend the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl to report guard regions" from
   Andrei Vagin extends the info returned by the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl
   against /proc/pid/pagemap. This permits CRIU to more efficiently get
   at the info about guard regions.

 - "Fix parameter passed to page_mapcount_is_type()" from Gavin Shan
   implements that fix. No runtime effect is expected because
   validate_page_before_insert() happens to fix up this error.

 - "kernel/events/uprobes: uprobe_write_opcode() rewrite" from David
   Hildenbrand basically brings uprobe text poking into the current
   decade. Remove a bunch of hand-rolled implementation in favor of
   using more current facilities.

 - "mm/ptdump: Drop assumption that pxd_val() is u64" from Anshuman
   Khandual provides enhancements and generalizations to the pte dumping
   code. This might be needed when 128-bit Page Table Descriptors are
   enabled for ARM.

 - "Always call constructor for kernel page tables" from Kevin Brodsky
   ensures that the ctor/dtor is always called for kernel pgtables, as
   it already is for user pgtables.

   This permits the addition of more functionality such as "insert hooks
   to protect page tables". This change does result in various
   architectures performing unnecesary work, but this is fixed up where
   it is anticipated to occur.

 - "Rust support for mm_struct, vm_area_struct, and mmap" from Alice
   Ryhl adds plumbing to permit Rust access to core MM structures.

 - "fix incorrectly disallowed anonymous VMA merges" from Lorenzo
   Stoakes takes advantage of some VMA merging opportunities which we've
   been missing for 15 years.

 - "mm/madvise: batch tlb flushes for MADV_DONTNEED and MADV_FREE" from
   SeongJae Park optimizes process_madvise()'s TLB flushing.

   Instead of flushing each address range in the provided iovec, we
   batch the flushing across all the iovec entries. The syscall's cost
   was approximately halved with a microbenchmark which was designed to
   load this particular operation.

 - "Track node vacancy to reduce worst case allocation counts" from
   Sidhartha Kumar makes the maple tree smarter about its node
   preallocation.

   stress-ng mmap performance increased by single-digit percentages and
   the amount of unnecessarily preallocated memory was dramaticelly
   reduced.

 - "mm/gup: Minor fix, cleanup and improvements" from Baoquan He removes
   a few unnecessary things which Baoquan noted when reading the code.

 - ""Enhance sysfs handling for memory hotplug in weighted interleave"
   from Rakie Kim "enhances the weighted interleave policy in the memory
   management subsystem by improving sysfs handling, fixing memory
   leaks, and introducing dynamic sysfs updates for memory hotplug
   support". Fixes things on error paths which we are unlikely to hit.

 - "mm/damon: auto-tune DAMOS for NUMA setups including tiered memory"
   from SeongJae Park introduces new DAMOS quota goal metrics which
   eliminate the manual tuning which is required when utilizing DAMON
   for memory tiering.

 - "mm/vmalloc.c: code cleanup and improvements" from Baoquan He
   provides cleanups and small efficiency improvements which Baoquan
   found via code inspection.

 - "vmscan: enforce mems_effective during demotion" from Gregory Price
   changes reclaim to respect cpuset.mems_effective during demotion when
   possible. because presently, reclaim explicitly ignores
   cpuset.mems_effective when demoting, which may cause the cpuset
   settings to violated.

   This is useful for isolating workloads on a multi-tenant system from
   certain classes of memory more consistently.

 - "Clean up split_huge_pmd_locked() and remove unnecessary folio
   pointers" from Gavin Guo provides minor cleanups and efficiency gains
   in in the huge page splitting and migrating code.

 - "Use kmem_cache for memcg alloc" from Huan Yang creates a slab cache
   for `struct mem_cgroup', yielding improved memory utilization.

 - "add max arg to swappiness in memory.reclaim and lru_gen" from
   Zhongkun He adds a new "max" argument to the "swappiness=" argument
   for memory.reclaim MGLRU's lru_gen.

   This directs proactive reclaim to reclaim from only anon folios
   rather than file-backed folios.

 - "kexec: introduce Kexec HandOver (KHO)" from Mike Rapoport is the
   first step on the path to permitting the kernel to maintain existing
   VMs while replacing the host kernel via file-based kexec. At this
   time only memblock's reserve_mem is preserved.

 - "mm: Introduce for_each_valid_pfn()" from David Woodhouse provides
   and uses a smarter way of looping over a pfn range. By skipping
   ranges of invalid pfns.

 - "sched/numa: Skip VMA scanning on memory pinned to one NUMA node via
   cpuset.mems" from Libo Chen removes a lot of pointless VMA scanning
   when a task is pinned a single NUMA mode.

   Dramatic performance benefits were seen in some real world cases.

 - "JFS: Implement migrate_folio for jfs_metapage_aops" from Shivank
   Garg addresses a warning which occurs during memory compaction when
   using JFS.

 - "move all VMA allocation, freeing and duplication logic to mm" from
   Lorenzo Stoakes moves some VMA code from kernel/fork.c into the more
   appropriate mm/vma.c.

 - "mm, swap: clean up swap cache mapping helper" from Kairui Song
   provides code consolidation and cleanups related to the folio_index()
   function.

 - "mm/gup: Cleanup memfd_pin_folios()" from Vishal Moola does that.

 - "memcg: Fix test_memcg_min/low test failures" from Waiman Long
   addresses some bogus failures which are being reported by the
   test_memcontrol selftest.

 - "eliminate mmap() retry merge, add .mmap_prepare hook" from Lorenzo
   Stoakes commences the deprecation of file_operations.mmap() in favor
   of the new file_operations.mmap_prepare().

   The latter is more restrictive and prevents drivers from messing with
   things in ways which, amongst other problems, may defeat VMA merging.

 - "memcg: decouple memcg and objcg stocks"" from Shakeel Butt decouples
   the per-cpu memcg charge cache from the objcg's one.

   This is a step along the way to making memcg and objcg charging
   NMI-safe, which is a BPF requirement.

 - "mm/damon: minor fixups and improvements for code, tests, and
   documents" from SeongJae Park is yet another batch of miscellaneous
   DAMON changes. Fix and improve minor problems in code, tests and
   documents.

 - "memcg: make memcg stats irq safe" from Shakeel Butt converts memcg
   stats to be irq safe. Another step along the way to making memcg
   charging and stats updates NMI-safe, a BPF requirement.

 - "Let unmap_hugepage_range() and several related functions take folio
   instead of page" from Fan Ni provides folio conversions in the
   hugetlb code.

dee264c16a require gcc-8 and binutils-2.30
x86 already uses gcc-8 as the minimum version, this changes all other
 architectures to the same version. gcc-8 is used is Debian 10 and Red
 Hat Enterprise Linux 8, both of which are still supported, and binutils
 2.30 is the oldest corresponding version on those. Ubuntu Pro 18.04 and
 SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 15 both use gcc-7 as the system compiler
 but additionally include toolchains that remain supported.
 
 With the new minimum toolchain versions, a number of workarounds for older
 versions can be dropped, in particular on x86_64 and arm64.  Importantly,
 the updated compiler version allows removing two of the five remaining
 gcc plugins, as support for sancov and structeak features is already
 included in modern compiler versions.
 
 I tried collecting the known changes that are possible based on the
 new toolchain version, but expect that more cleanups will be possible.
 Since this touches multiple architectures, I merged the patches through
 the asm-generic tree.

Pull IPE update from Fan Wu:
 "A single commit from Jasjiv Singh, that adds an errno field to IPE
  policy load auditing to log failures with error details, not just
  successes.

  This improves the security audit trail and helps diagnose policy

1b98f357da Networking changes for 6.16.
Core
 ----
 
  - Implement the Device Memory TCP transmit path, allowing zero-copy
    data transmission on top of TCP from e.g. GPU memory to the wire.
 
  - Move all the IPv6 routing tables management outside the RTNL scope,
    under its own lock and RCU. The route control path is now 3x times
    faster.
 
  - Convert queue related netlink ops to instance lock, reducing
    again the scope of the RTNL lock. This improves the control plane
    scalability.
 
  - Refactor the software crc32c implementation, removing unneeded
    abstraction layers and improving significantly the related
    micro-benchmarks.
 
  - Optimize the GRO engine for UDP-tunneled traffic, for a 10%
    performance improvement in related stream tests.
 
  - Cover more per-CPU storage with local nested BH locking; this is a
    prep work to remove the current per-CPU lock in local_bh_disable()
    on PREMPT_RT.
 
  - Introduce and use nlmsg_payload helper, combining buffer bounds
    verification with accessing payload carried by netlink messages.
 
 Netfilter
 ---------
 
  - Rewrite the procfs conntrack table implementation, improving
    considerably the dump performance. A lot of user-space tools
    still use this interface.
 
  - Implement support for wildcard netdevice in netdev basechain
    and flowtables.
 
  - Integrate conntrack information into nft trace infrastructure.
 
  - Export set count and backend name to userspace, for better
    introspection.
 
 BPF
 ---
 
  - BPF qdisc support: BPF-qdisc can be implemented with BPF struct_ops
    programs and can be controlled in similar way to traditional qdiscs
    using the "tc qdisc" command.
 
  - Refactor the UDP socket iterator, addressing long standing issues
    WRT duplicate hits or missed sockets.
 
 Protocols
 ---------
 
  - Improve TCP receive buffer auto-tuning and increase the default
    upper bound for the receive buffer; overall this improves the single
    flow maximum thoughput on 200Gbs link by over 60%.
 
  - Add AFS GSSAPI security class to AF_RXRPC; it provides transport
    security for connections to the AFS fileserver and VL server.
 
  - Improve TCP multipath routing, so that the sources address always
    matches the nexthop device.
 
  - Introduce SO_PASSRIGHTS for AF_UNIX, to allow disabling SCM_RIGHTS,
    and thus preventing DoS caused by passing around problematic FDs.
 
  - Retire DCCP socket. DCCP only receives updates for bugs, and major
    distros disable it by default. Its removal allows for better
    organisation of TCP fields to reduce the number of cache lines hit
    in the fast path.
 
  - Extend TCP drop-reason support to cover PAWS checks.
 
 Driver API
 ----------
 
  - Reorganize PTP ioctl flag support to require an explicit opt-in for
    the drivers, avoiding the problem of drivers not rejecting new
    unsupported flags.
 
  - Converted several device drivers to timestamping APIs.
 
  - Introduce per-PHY ethtool dump helpers, improving the support for
    dump operations targeting PHYs.
 
 Tests and tooling
 -----------------
 
  - Add support for classic netlink in user space C codegen, so that
    ynl-c can now read, create and modify links, routes addresses and
    qdisc layer configuration.
 
  - Add ynl sub-types for binary attributes, allowing ynl-c to output
    known struct instead of raw binary data, clarifying the classic
    netlink output.
 
  - Extend MPTCP selftests to improve the code-coverage.
 
  - Add tests for XDP tail adjustment in AF_XDP.
 
 New hardware / drivers
 ----------------------
 
  - OpenVPN virtual driver: offload OpenVPN data channels processing
    to the kernel-space, increasing the data transfer throughput WRT
    the user-space implementation.
 
  - Renesas glue driver for the gigabit ethernet RZ/V2H(P) SoC.
 
  - Broadcom asp-v3.0 ethernet driver.
 
  - AMD Renoir ethernet device.
 
  - ReakTek MT9888 2.5G ethernet PHY driver.
 
  - Aeonsemi 10G C45 PHYs driver.

3b66e6b3c0 cgroup: Changes for v6.16
- cgroup rstat shared the tracking tree across all controlers with the
   rationale being that a cgroup which is using one resource is likely to be
   using other resources at the same time (ie. if something is allocating
   memory, it's probably consuming CPU cycles). However, this turned out to
   not scale very well especially with memcg using rstat for internal
   operations which made memcg stat read and flush patterns substantially
   different from other controllers. JP Kobryn split the rstat tree per
   controller.
 
 - cgroup BPF support was hooking into cgroup init/exit paths directly.
   Convert them to use a notifier chain instead so that other usages can be
   added easily. The two of the patches which implement this are mislabeled
   as belonging to sched_ext instead of cgroup. Sorry.
 
 - Relatively minor cpuset updates.
 
 - Documentation updates.

1d887d6f81 ipe: add errno field to IPE policy load auditing
Users of IPE require a way to identify when and why an operation fails,
allowing them to both respond to violations of policy and be notified
of potentially malicious actions on their systems with respect to IPE.

This patch introduces a new error field to the AUDIT_IPE_POLICY_LOAD event
to log policy loading failures. Currently, IPE only logs successful policy
loads, but not failures. Tracking failures is crucial to detect malicious
attempts and ensure a complete audit trail for security events.

The new error field will capture the following error codes:

* -ENOKEY: Key used to sign the IPE policy not found in the keyring
* -ESTALE: Attempting to update an IPE policy with an older version
* -EKEYREJECTED: IPE signature verification failed
* -ENOENT: Policy was deleted while updating
* -EEXIST: Same name policy already deployed
* -ERANGE: Policy version number overflow
* -EINVAL: Policy version parsing error
* -EPERM: Insufficient permission
* -ENOMEM: Out of memory (OOM)
* -EBADMSG: Policy is invalid

Here are some examples of the updated audit record types:

AUDIT_IPE_POLICY_LOAD(1422):
audit:  AUDIT1422 policy_name="Test_Policy" policy_version=0.0.1
policy_digest=sha256:84EFBA8FA71E62AE0A537FAB962F8A2BD1053964C4299DCA
92BFFF4DB82E86D3 auid=1000 ses=3 lsm=ipe res=1 errno=0

The above record shows a new policy has been successfully loaded into
the kernel with the policy name, version, and hash with the errno=0.

AUDIT_IPE_POLICY_LOAD(1422) with error:

audit: AUDIT1422 policy_name=? policy_version=? policy_digest=?
auid=1000 ses=3 lsm=ipe res=0 errno=-74

The above record shows a policy load failure due to an invalid policy
(-EBADMSG).

By adding this error field, we ensure that all policy load attempts,
whether successful or failed, are logged, providing a comprehensive
audit trail for IPE policy management.

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)

Pull gpio updates from Bartosz Golaszewski:
 "We have three new drivers, some refactoring in the GPIO core, lots of
  various changes across many drivers, new configfs interface for the
  virtual gpio-aggregator module and DT-bindings updates.

  The treewide conversion of GPIO drivers to using the new value setter

3e443d1673 A moderately busy cycle for documentation this time around:
- The most significant change is the replacement of the old kernel-doc
   script (a monstrous collection of Perl regexes that predates the Git era)
   with a Python reimplementation.  That, too, is a horrifying collection of
   regexes, but in a much cleaner and more maintainable structure that
   integrates far better with the Sphinx build system.
 
   This change has been in linux-next for the full 6.15 cycle; the small
   number of problems that turned up have been addressed, seemingly to
   everybody's satisfaction.  The Perl kernel-doc script remains in tree (as
   scripts/kernel-doc.pl) and can be used with a command-line option if need
   be.  Unless some reason to keep it around materializes, it will probably
   go away in 6.17.
 
   Credit goes to Mauro Carvalho Chehab for doing all this work.

785cdec46e Core x86 updates for v6.16:
Boot code changes:
 
  - A large series of changes to reorganize the x86 boot code into a better isolated
    and easier to maintain base of PIC early startup code in arch/x86/boot/startup/,
    by Ard Biesheuvel.
 
    Motivation & background:
 
 	| Since commit
 	|
 	|    c88d71508e ("x86/boot/64: Rewrite startup_64() in C")
 	|
 	| dated Jun 6 2017, we have been using C code on the boot path in a way
 	| that is not supported by the toolchain, i.e., to execute non-PIC C
 	| code from a mapping of memory that is different from the one provided
 	| to the linker. It should have been obvious at the time that this was a
 	| bad idea, given the need to sprinkle fixup_pointer() calls left and
 	| right to manipulate global variables (including non-pointer variables)
 	| without crashing.
 	|
 	| This C startup code has been expanding, and in particular, the SEV-SNP
 	| startup code has been expanding over the past couple of years, and
 	| grown many of these warts, where the C code needs to use special
 	| annotations or helpers to access global objects.
 
    This tree includes the first phase of this work-in-progress x86 boot code
    reorganization.

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

DAMON was initially developed only for data access monitoring, and then
extended for not only access monitoring but also access-aware system
operations (DAMOS).  But the documents have old titles and brief
introductions for only the monitoring part.  Update the titles and the
brief introductions to explain DAMOS part together.

9ebfa8dcae crash_dump: reuse saved dm crypt keys for CPU/memory hot-plugging
When there are CPU and memory hot un/plugs, the dm crypt keys may need to
be reloaded again depending on the solution for crash hotplug support. 
Currently, there are two solutions.  One is to utilizes udev to instruct
user space to reload the kdump kernel image and initrd, elfcorehdr and etc
again.  The other is to only update the elfcorehdr segment introduced in
commit 2472627561 ("crash: add generic infrastructure for crash hotplug
support").

For the 1st solution, the dm crypt keys need to be reloaded again.  The
user space can write true to /sys/kernel/config/crash_dm_crypt_key/reuse
so the stored keys can be re-used.

For the 2nd solution, the dm crypt keys don't need to be reloaded. 
Currently, only x86 supports the 2nd solution.  If the 2nd solution gets
extended to all arches, this patch can be dropped.

180cf31af7 crash_dump: make dm crypt keys persist for the kdump kernel
A configfs /sys/kernel/config/crash_dm_crypt_keys is provided for user
space to make the dm crypt keys persist for the kdump kernel.  Take the
case of dumping to a LUKS-encrypted target as an example, here is the life
cycle of the kdump copies of LUKS volume keys,

 1. After the 1st kernel loads the initramfs during boot, systemd uses
    an user-input passphrase to de-crypt the LUKS volume keys or simply
    TPM-sealed volume keys and then save the volume keys to specified
    keyring (using the --link-vk-to-keyring API) and the keys will expire
    within specified time.

 2. A user space tool (kdump initramfs loader like kdump-utils) create
    key items inside /sys/kernel/config/crash_dm_crypt_keys to inform
    the 1st kernel which keys are needed.

 3. When the kdump initramfs is loaded by the kexec_file_load
    syscall, the 1st kernel will iterate created key items, save the
    keys to kdump reserved memory.

 4. When the 1st kernel crashes and the kdump initramfs is booted, the
    kdump initramfs asks the kdump kernel to create a user key using the
    key stored in kdump reserved memory by writing yes to
    /sys/kernel/crash_dm_crypt_keys/restore. Then the LUKS encrypted
    device is unlocked with libcryptsetup's --volume-key-keyring API.

 5. The system gets rebooted to the 1st kernel after dumping vmcore to
    the LUKS encrypted device is finished

Eventually the keys have to stay in the kdump reserved memory for the
kdump kernel to unlock encrypted volumes.  During this process, some
measures like letting the keys expire within specified time are desirable
to reduce security risk.

This patch assumes,
1) there are 128 LUKS devices at maximum to be unlocked thus
   MAX_KEY_NUM=128.

2) a key description won't exceed 128 bytes thus KEY_DESC_MAX_LEN=128.

And here is a demo on how to interact with
/sys/kernel/config/crash_dm_crypt_keys,

    # Add key #1
    mkdir /sys/kernel/config/crash_dm_crypt_keys/7d26b7b4-e342-4d2d-b660-7426b0996720
    # Add key #1's description
    echo cryptsetup:7d26b7b4-e342-4d2d-b660-7426b0996720 > /sys/kernel/config/crash_dm_crypt_keys/description

    # how many keys do we have now?
    cat /sys/kernel/config/crash_dm_crypt_keys/count
    1

    # Add key# 2 in the same way

    # how many keys do we have now?
    cat /sys/kernel/config/crash_dm_crypt_keys/count
    2

    # the tree structure of /crash_dm_crypt_keys configfs

aafe12f980 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.

vfs: Add sysctl vfs_cache_pressure_denom for bulk file operations
On our HDFS servers with 12 HDDs per server, a HDFS datanode[0] 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, we 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, we need to preserve more dentries during
memory reclamation. The current minimum reclaim ratio (1/100 of total
dentries) remains too aggressive for our 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.

b40599930f mm: add max swappiness arg to lru_gen for anonymous memory only
The MGLRU already supports reclaiming only from anonymous memory via the
/sys/kernel/debug/lru_gen interface.  Now, memory.reclaim also supports
the swappiness=max parameter to enable reclaiming solely from anonymous
memory.  To unify the semantics of proactive reclaiming from anonymous
folios, the max parameter is introduced.

68a1436bde mm: add swappiness=max arg to memory.reclaim for only anon reclaim
Patch series "add max arg to swappiness in memory.reclaim and lru_gen", v4.

This patchset adds max arg to swappiness in memory.reclaim and lru_gen for
anon only proactive memory reclaim.

With commit <68cd9050d871> ("mm: add swappiness= arg to memory.reclaim")
we can submit an additional swappiness=<val> argument to memory.reclaim. 
It is very useful because we can dynamically adjust the reclamation ratio
based on the anonymous folios and file folios of each cgroup.  For
example,when swappiness is set to 0, we only reclaim from file folios. 
But we can not relciam memory just from anon folios.

This patchset introduces a new macro, SWAPPINESS_ANON_ONLY, defined as
MAX_SWAPPINESS + 1, represent the max arg semantics.  It specifically
indicates that reclamation should occur only from anonymous pages.

Patch 1 adds swappiness=max arg to memory.reclaim suggested-by: Yosry
Ahmed

Patch 2 add more comments for cache_trim_mode from Johannes Weiner in [1].

Patch 3 add max arg to lru_gen for proactive memory reclaim in MGLRU.  The
MGLRU already supports reclaiming exclusively from anonymous pages.  This
patch formalizes that behavior by introducing a max parameter to represent
the corresponding semantics.

Patch 4 using SWAPPINESS_ANON_ONLY in MGLRU Using SWAPPINESS_ANON_ONLY
instead of MAX_SWAPPINESS + 1 to indicate reclaiming only from anonymous
pages makes the code more readable and explicit

This patch (of 4):

With commit <68cd9050d871> ("mm: add swappiness= arg to memory.reclaim")
we can submit an additional swappiness=<val> argument to memory.reclaim. 
It is very useful because we can dynamically adjust the reclamation ratio
based on the anonymous folios and file folios of each cgroup.  For
example,when swappiness is set to 0, we only reclaim from file folios.

However,we have also encountered a new issue: when swappiness is set to
the MAX_SWAPPINESS, it may still only reclaim file folios.

So, we hope to add a new arg 'swappiness=max' in memory.reclaim where
proactive memory reclaim only reclaims from anonymous folios when
swappiness is set to max.  The swappiness semantics from a user
perspective remain unchanged.

For example, something like this:

echo "2M swappiness=max" > /sys/fs/cgroup/memory.reclaim

will perform reclaim on the rootcg with a swappiness setting of 'max' (a
new mode) regardless of the file folios.  Users have a more comprehensive
view of the application's memory distribution because there are many
metrics available.  For example, if we find that a certain cgroup has a
large number of inactive anon folios, we can reclaim only those and skip
file folios, because with the zram/zswap, the IO tradeoff that
cache_trim_mode or other file first logic is making doesn't hold - file
refaults will cause IO, whereas anon decompression will not.

With this patch, the swappiness argument of memory.reclaim has a new
mode 'max', means reclaiming just from anonymous folios both in traditional
LRU and MGLRU.

c8e6002bd6 memcg: introduce non-blocking limit setting option
Setting the max and high limits can trigger synchronous reclaim and/or
oom-kill if the usage is higher than the given limit.  This behavior is
fine for newly created cgroups but it can cause issues for the node
controller while setting limits for existing cgroups.

In our production multi-tenant and overcommitted environment, we are
seeing priority inversion when the node controller dynamically adjusts the
limits of running jobs of different priorities.  Based on the system
situation, the node controller may reduce the limits of lower priority
jobs and increase the limits of higher priority jobs.  However we are
seeing node controller getting stuck for long period of time while
reclaiming from lower priority jobs while setting their limits and also
spends a lot of its own CPU.

One of the workaround we are trying is to fork a new process which sets
the limit of the lower priority job along with setting an alarm to get
itself killed if it get stuck in the reclaim for lower priority job. 
However we are finding it very unreliable and costly.  Either we need a
good enough time buffer for the alarm to be delivered after setting limit
and potentialy spend a lot of CPU in the reclaim or be unreliable in
setting the limit for much shorter but cheaper (less reclaim) alarms.

Let's introduce new limit setting option which does not trigger reclaim
and/or oom-kill and let the processes in the target cgroup to trigger
reclaim and/or throttling and/or oom-kill in their next charge request. 
This will make the node controller on multi-tenant overcommitted
environment much more reliable.

Explanation from Johannes on side-effects of O_NONBLOCK limit change:
  It's usually the allocating tasks inside the group bearing the cost of
  limit enforcement and reclaim. This allows a (privileged) updater from
  outside the group to keep that cost in there - instead of having to
  help, from a context that doesn't necessarily make sense.

  I suppose the tradeoff with that - and the reason why this was doing
  sync reclaim in the first place - is that, if the group is idle and
  not trying to allocate more, it can take indefinitely for the new
  limit to actually be met.

  It should be okay in most scenarios in practice. As the capacity is
  reallocated from group A to B, B will exert pressure on A once it
  tries to claim it and thereby shrink it down. If A is idle, that
  shouldn't be hard. If A is running, it's likely to fault/allocate
  soon-ish and then join the effort.

  It does leave a (malicious) corner case where A is just busy-hitting
  its memory to interfere with the clawback. This is comparable to
  reclaiming memory.low overage from the outside, though, which is an
  acceptable risk. Users of O_NONBLOCK just need to be aware.

247021624a crash: export PAGE_UNACCEPTED_MAPCOUNT_VALUE to vmcoreinfo
On Intel TDX guest, unaccepted memory is unusable free memory which is not
managed by buddy, until it's accepted by guest.  Before that, it cannot be
accessed by the first kernel as well as the kexec'ed kernel.  The kexec'ed
kernel will skip these pages and fill in zero data for the reader of
vmcore.

The dump tool like makedumpfile creates a page descriptor (size 24 bytes)
for each non-free page, including zero data page, but it will not create
descriptor for free pages.  If it is not able to distinguish these
unaccepted pages with zero data pages, a certain amount of space will be
wasted in proportion (~1/170).  In fact, as a special kind of free page
the unaccepted pages should be excluded, like the real free pages.

Export the page type PAGE_UNACCEPTED_MAPCOUNT_VALUE to vmcoreinfo, so that
dump tool can identify whether a page is unaccepted.

a516403787 fs/proc: extend the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl to report guard regions
Patch series "fs/proc: extend the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl to report guard
regions", v2.

Introduce the PAGE_IS_GUARD flag in the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl to expose
information about guard regions.  This allows userspace tools, such as
CRIU, to detect and handle guard regions.

Currently, CRIU utilizes PAGEMAP_SCAN as a more efficient alternative to
parsing /proc/pid/pagemap.  Without this change, guard regions are
incorrectly reported as swap-anon regions, leading CRIU to attempt dumping
them and subsequently failing.

The series includes updates to the documentation and selftests to reflect
the new functionality.

cf42d4cccf zram: modernize writeback interface
The writeback interface supports a page_index=N parameter which performs
writeback of the given page.  Since we rarely need to writeback just one
single page, the typical use case involves a number of writeback calls,
each performing writeback of one page:

  echo page_index=100 > zram0/writeback
  ...
  echo page_index=200 > zram0/writeback
  echo page_index=500 > zram0/writeback
  ...
  echo page_index=700 > zram0/writeback

One obvious downside of this is that it increases the number of syscalls. 
Less obvious, but a significantly more important downside, is that when
given only one page to post-process zram cannot perform an optimal target
selection.  This becomes a critical limitation when writeback_limit is
enabled, because under writeback_limit we want to guarantee the highest
memory savings hence we first need to writeback pages that release the
highest amount of zsmalloc pool memory.

This patch adds page_indexes=LOW-HIGH parameter to the writeback
interface:

  echo page_indexes=100-200 page_indexes=500-700 > zram0/writeback

This gives zram a chance to apply an optimal target selection strategy on
each iteration of the writeback loop.

We also now permit multiple page_index parameters per call (previously
zram would recognize only one page_index) and a mix or single pages and
page ranges:

  echo page_index=42 page_index=99 page_indexes=100-200 \
       page_indexes=500-700 > zram0/writeback

Apart from that the patch also unifies parameters passing and resembles
other "modern" zram device attributes (e.g.  recompression), while the old
interface used a mixed scheme: values-less parameters for mode and a
key=value format for page_index.  We still support the "old" value-less
format for compatibility reasons.

f4818881c4 x86/its: Enable Indirect Target Selection mitigation
Indirect Target Selection (ITS) is a bug in some pre-ADL Intel CPUs with
eIBRS. It affects prediction of indirect branch and RETs in the
lower half of cacheline. Due to ITS such branches may get wrongly predicted
to a target of (direct or indirect) branch that is located in the upper
half of the cacheline.

Scope of impact
===============

Guest/host isolation
--------------------
When eIBRS is used for guest/host isolation, the indirect branches in the
VMM may still be predicted with targets corresponding to branches in the
guest.

Intra-mode
----------
cBPF or other native gadgets can be used for intra-mode training and
disclosure using ITS.

User/kernel isolation
---------------------
When eIBRS is enabled user/kernel isolation is not impacted.

Indirect Branch Prediction Barrier (IBPB)
-----------------------------------------
After an IBPB, indirect branches may be predicted with targets
corresponding to direct branches which were executed prior to IBPB. This is
mitigated by a microcode update.

Add cmdline parameter indirect_target_selection=off|on|force to control the
mitigation to relocate the affected branches to an ITS-safe thunk i.e.
located in the upper half of cacheline. Also add the sysfs reporting.

When retpoline mitigation is deployed, ITS safe-thunks are not needed,
because retpoline sequence is already ITS-safe. Similarly, when call depth
tracking (CDT) mitigation is deployed (retbleed=stuff), ITS safe return
thunk is not used, as CDT prevents RSB-underflow.

To not overcomplicate things, ITS mitigation is not supported with
spectre-v2 lfence;jmp mitigation. Moreover, it is less practical to deploy
lfence;jmp mitigation on ITS affected parts anyways.

of an atomic write.  If the filesystem can work with the supplied value,
that becomes the new guaranteed maximum.

The value mustn't be too big for the existing filesystem geometry (max
write size, max AG/rtgroup size).  We dynamically recompute the
tr_atomic_write transaction reservation based on the given block size,
check that the current log size isn't less than the new minimum log size
constraints, and set a new maximum.

The actual software atomic write max is still computed based off of
tr_atomic_ioend the same way it has for the past few commits.  Note also
that xfs_calc_atomic_write_log_geometry is non-static because mkfs will
need that.

118c40b7b5 kbuild: require gcc-8 and binutils-2.30
Commit a3e8fe814a ("x86/build: Raise the minimum GCC version to 8.1")
raised the minimum compiler version as enforced by Kbuild to gcc-8.1
and clang-15 for x86.

This is actually the same gcc version that has been discussed as the
minimum for all architectures several times in the past, with little
objection. A previous concern was the kernel for SLE15-SP7 needing to
be built with gcc-7. As this ended up still using linux-6.4 and there
is no plan for an SP8, this is no longer a problem.

Change it for all architectures and adjust the documentation accordingly.
A few version checks can be removed in the process.  The binutils
version 2.30 is the lowest version used in combination with gcc-8 on
common distros, so use that as the corresponding minimum.

4e2c719782 x86/cpu: Help users notice when running old Intel microcode
Old microcode is bad for users and for kernel developers.

For users, it exposes them to known fixed security and/or functional
issues. These obviously rarely result in instant dumpster fires in
every environment. But it is as important to keep your microcode up
to date as it is to keep your kernel up to date.

Old microcode also makes kernels harder to debug. A developer looking
at an oops need to consider kernel bugs, known CPU issues and unknown
CPU issues as possible causes. If they know the microcode is up to
date, they can mostly eliminate known CPU issues as the cause.

Make it easier to tell if CPU microcode is out of date. Add a list
of released microcode. If the loaded microcode is older than the
release, tell users in a place that folks can find it:

	/sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities/old_microcode

Tell kernel kernel developers about it with the existing taint
flag:

	TAINT_CPU_OUT_OF_SPEC

== Discussion ==

When a user reports a potential kernel issue, it is very common
to ask them to reproduce the issue on mainline. Running mainline,
they will (independently from the distro) acquire a more up-to-date
microcode version list. If their microcode is old, they will
get a warning about the taint and kernel developers can take that
into consideration when debugging.

Just like any other entry in "vulnerabilities/", users are free to
make their own assessment of their exposure.

== Microcode Revision Discussion ==

The microcode versions in the table were generated from the Intel
microcode git repo:

	8ac9378a8487 ("microcode-20241112 Release")

which as of this writing lags behind the latest microcode-20250211.

It can be argued that the versions that the kernel picks to call "old"
should be a revision or two old. Which specific version is picked is
less important to me than picking *a* version and enforcing it.

This repository contains only microcode versions that Intel has deemed
to be OS-loadable. It is quite possible that the BIOS has loaded a
newer microcode than the latest in this repo. If this happens, the
system is considered to have new microcode, not old.

Specifically, the sysfs file and taint flag answer the question:

	Is the CPU running on the latest OS-loadable microcode,
	or something even later that the BIOS loaded?

In other words, Intel never publishes an authoritative list of CPUs
and latest microcode revisions. Until it does, this is the best that
Linux can do.

Also note that the "intel-ucode-defs.h" file is simple, ugly and
has lots of magic numbers. That's on purpose and should allow a
single file to be shared across lots of stable kernel regardless of if
they have the new "VFM" infrastructure or not. It was generated with
a dumb script.

== FAQ ==

Q: Does this tell me if my system is secure or insecure?
A: No. It only tells you if your microcode was old when the
   system booted.

Q: Should the kernel warn if the microcode list itself is too old?
A: No. New kernels will get new microcode lists, both mainline
   and stable. The only way to have an old list is to be running
   an old kernel in which case you have bigger problems.

Q: Is this for security or functional issues?
A: Both.

Q: If a given microcode update only has functional problems but
   no security issues, will it be considered old?
A: Yes. All microcode image versions within a microcode release
   are treated identically. Intel appears to make security
   updates without disclosing them in the release notes.  Thus,
   all updates are considered to be security-relevant.

Q: Who runs old microcode?
A: Anybody with an old distro. This happens all the time inside
   of Intel where there are lots of weird systems in labs that
   might not be getting regular distro updates and might also
   be running rather exotic microcode images.

Q: If I update my microcode after booting will it stop saying
   "Vulnerable"?
A: No. Just like all the other vulnerabilies, you need to
   reboot before the kernel will reassess your vulnerability.

845abeb1f0 xfs: add tunable threshold parameter for triggering zone GC
Presently we start garbage collection late - when we start running
out of free zones to backfill max_open_zones. This is a reasonable
default as it minimizes write amplification. The longer we wait,
the more blocks are invalidated and reclaim cost less in terms
of blocks to relocate.

Starting this late however introduces a risk of GC being outcompeted
by user writes. If GC can't keep up, user writes will be forced to
wait for free zones with high tail latencies as a result.

This is not a problem under normal circumstances, but if fragmentation
is bad and user write pressure is high (multiple full-throttle
writers) we will "bottom out" of free zones.

To mitigate this, introduce a zonegc_low_space tunable that lets the
user specify a percentage of how much of the unused space that GC
should keep available for writing. A high value will reclaim more of
the space occupied by unused blocks, creating a larger buffer against
write bursts.

This comes at a cost as write amplification is increased. To
illustrate this using a sample workload, setting zonegc_low_space to
60% avoids high (500ms) max latencies while increasing write
amplification by 15%.

2a63dd0edf net: Retire DCCP socket.
DCCP was orphaned in 2021 by commit 054c4610bd ("MAINTAINERS: dccp:
move Gerrit Renker to CREDITS"), which noted that the last maintainer
had been inactive for five years.

In recent years, it has become a playground for syzbot, and most changes
to DCCP have been odd bug fixes triggered by syzbot.  Apart from that,
the only changes have been driven by treewide or networking API updates
or adjustments related to TCP.

Thus, in 2023, we announced we would remove DCCP in 2025 via commit
b144fcaf46 ("dccp: Print deprecation notice.").

Since then, only one individual has contacted the netdev mailing list. [0]

There is ongoing research for Multipath DCCP.  The repository is hosted
on GitHub [1], and development is not taking place through the upstream
community.  While the repository is published under the GPLv2 license,
the scheduling part remains proprietary, with a LICENSE file [2] stating:

  "This is not Open Source software."

The researcher mentioned a plan to address the licensing issue, upstream
the patches, and step up as a maintainer, but there has been no further
communication since then.

Maintaining DCCP for a decade without any real users has become a burden.

Therefore, it's time to remove it.

Removing DCCP will also provide significant benefits to TCP.  It allows
us to freely reorganize the layout of struct inet_connection_sock, which
is currently shared with DCCP, and optimize it to reduce the number of
cachelines accessed in the TCP fast path.

Note that we keep DCCP netfilter modules as requested.  [3]

996457176b x86/early_printk: Use 'mmio32' for consistency, fix comments
First of all, using 'mmio' prevents proper implementation of 8-bit accessors.
Second, it's simply inconsistent with uart8250 set of options. Rename it to
'mmio32'. While at it, remove rather misleading comment in the documentation.
From now on mmio32 is self-explanatory and pciserial supports not only 32-bit
MMIO accessors.

Also, while at it, fix the comment for the "pciserial" case. The comment
seems to be a copy'n'paste error when mentioning "serial" instead of
"pciserial" (with double quotes). Fix this.

With that, move it upper, so we don't calculate 'buf' twice.

6cb0bd94c0 Persistent buffer cleanups and simplifications for v6.15:
It was mistaken that the physical memory returned from "reserve_mem" had to
 be vmap()'d to get to it from a virtual address. But reserve_mem already
 maps the memory to the virtual address of the kernel so a simple
 phys_to_virt() can be used to get to the virtual address from the physical
 memory returned by "reserve_mem". With this new found knowledge, the
 code can be cleaned up and simplified.
 
 - Enforce that the persistent memory is page aligned
 
   As the buffers using the persistent memory are all going to be
   mapped via pages, make sure that the memory given to the tracing
   infrastructure is page aligned. If it is not, it will print a warning
   and fail to map the buffer.
 
 - Use phys_to_virt() to get the virtual address from reserve_mem
 
   Instead of calling vmap() on the physical memory returned from
   "reserve_mem", use phys_to_virt() instead.
 
   As the memory returned by "memmap" or any other means where a physical
   address is given to the tracing infrastructure, it still needs to
   be vmap(). Since this memory can never be returned back to the buddy
   allocator nor should it ever be memmory mapped to user space, flag
   this buffer and up the ref count. The ref count will keep it from
   ever being freed, and the flag will prevent it from ever being memory
   mapped to user space.
 
 - Use vmap_page_range() for memmap virtual address mapping
 
   For the memmap buffer, instead of allocating an array of struct pages,
   assigning them to the contiguous phsycial memory and then passing that to
   vmap(), use vmap_page_range() instead
 
 - Replace flush_dcache_folio() with flush_kernel_vmap_range()
 
   Instead of calling virt_to_folio() and passing that to
   flush_dcache_folio(), just call flush_kernel_vmap_range() directly.
   This also fixes a bug where if a subbuffer was bigger than PAGE_SIZE
   only the PAGE_SIZE portion would be flushed.

Uros Bizjak uses x86 named address space qualifiers to provide
   compile-time checking of percpu area accesses.
 
   This has caused a small amount of fallout - two or three issues were
   reported.  In all cases the calling code was founf to be incorrect.
 
 - The 4 patch series "Some cleanup for memcg" from Chen Ridong
   implements some relatively monir cleanups for the memcontrol code.
 
 - The 17 patch series "mm: fixes for device-exclusive entries (hmm)"
   from David Hildenbrand fixes a boatload of issues which David found then
   using device-exclusive PTE entries when THP is enabled.  More work is
   needed, but this makes thins better - our own HMM selftests now succeed.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm: zswap: remove z3fold and zbud" from Yosry
   Ahmed remove the z3fold and zbud implementations.  They have been
   deprecated for half a year and nobody has complained.
 
 - The 5 patch series "mm: further simplify VMA merge operation" from
   Lorenzo Stoakes implements numerous simplifications in this area.  No
   runtime effects are anticipated.
 
 - The 4 patch series "mm/madvise: remove redundant mmap_lock operations
   from process_madvise()" from SeongJae Park rationalizes the locking in
   the madvise() implementation.  Performance gains of 20-25% were observed
   in one MADV_DONTNEED microbenchmark.

   accuracy of kdamond's walking of DAMON regions.
 
 - The 3 patch series "expose mapping wrprotect, fix fb_defio use" from
   Lorenzo Stoakes changes the interaction between framebuffer deferred-io
   and core MM.  No functional changes are anticipated - this is
   preparatory work for the future removal of page structure fields.
 
 - The 4 patch series "mm/damon: add support for hugepage_size DAMOS
   filter" from Usama Arif adds a DAMOS filter which permits the filtering
   by huge page sizes.
 
 - The 4 patch series "mm: permit guard regions for file-backed/shmem
   mappings" from Lorenzo Stoakes extends the guard region feature from its
   present "anon mappings only" state.  The feature now covers shmem and
   file-backed mappings.

   pte-mapped large folios.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:

 - The series "Enable strict percpu address space checks" from Uros
   Bizjak uses x86 named address space qualifiers to provide
   compile-time checking of percpu area accesses.

   This has caused a small amount of fallout - two or three issues were
   reported. In all cases the calling code was found to be incorrect.

 - The series "Some cleanup for memcg" from Chen Ridong implements some
   relatively monir cleanups for the memcontrol code.

 - The series "mm: fixes for device-exclusive entries (hmm)" from David
   Hildenbrand fixes a boatload of issues which David found then using
   device-exclusive PTE entries when THP is enabled. More work is
   needed, but this makes thins better - our own HMM selftests now
   succeed.

 - The series "mm: zswap: remove z3fold and zbud" from Yosry Ahmed
   remove the z3fold and zbud implementations. They have been deprecated
   for half a year and nobody has complained.

 - The series "mm: further simplify VMA merge operation" from Lorenzo
   Stoakes implements numerous simplifications in this area. No runtime
   effects are anticipated.

 - The series "mm/madvise: remove redundant mmap_lock operations from
   process_madvise()" from SeongJae Park rationalizes the locking in the
   madvise() implementation. Performance gains of 20-25% were observed
   in one MADV_DONTNEED microbenchmark.

 - The series "Tiny cleanup and improvements about SWAP code" from
   Baoquan He contains a number of touchups to issues which Baoquan
   noticed when working on the swap code.

 - The series "mm: kmemleak: Usability improvements" from Catalin
   Marinas implements a couple of improvements to the kmemleak
   user-visible output.

   behaviors" from SeongJae Park fixes a few issues with the accuracy of
   kdamond's walking of DAMON regions.

 - The series "expose mapping wrprotect, fix fb_defio use" from Lorenzo
   Stoakes changes the interaction between framebuffer deferred-io and
   core MM. No functional changes are anticipated - this is preparatory
   work for the future removal of page structure fields.

 - The series "mm/damon: add support for hugepage_size DAMOS filter"
   from Usama Arif adds a DAMOS filter which permits the filtering by
   huge page sizes.

 - The series "mm: permit guard regions for file-backed/shmem mappings"
   from Lorenzo Stoakes extends the guard region feature from its
   present "anon mappings only" state. The feature now covers shmem and
   file-backed mappings.

   Baghdasaryan puts the vm_lock back into the vma. Our reasons for
   pulling it out were largely bogus and that change made the code more
   messy. This patchset provides small (0-10%) improvements on one
   microbenchmark.

9b17cb59a7 fuse: add default_request_timeout and max_request_timeout sysctls
Introduce two new sysctls, "default_request_timeout" and
"max_request_timeout". These control how long (in seconds) a server can
take to reply to a request. If the server does not reply by the timeout,
then the connection will be aborted. The upper bound on these sysctl
values is 65535.

"default_request_timeout" sets the default timeout if no timeout is
specified by the fuse server on mount. 0 (default) indicates no default
timeout should be enforced. If the server did specify a timeout, then
default_request_timeout will be ignored.

"max_request_timeout" sets the max amount of time the server may take to
reply to a request. 0 (default) indicates no maximum timeout. If
max_request_timeout is set and the fuse server attempts to set a
timeout greater than max_request_timeout, the system will use
max_request_timeout as the timeout. Similarly, if default_request_timeout
is greater than max_request_timeout, the system will use
max_request_timeout as the timeout. If the server does not request a
timeout and default_request_timeout is set to 0 but max_request_timeout
is set, then the timeout will be max_request_timeout.

Please note that these timeouts are not 100% precise. The request may
take roughly an extra FUSE_TIMEOUT_TIMER_FREQ seconds beyond the set max
timeout due to how it's internally implemented.

$ sysctl -a | grep fuse.default_request_timeout
fs.fuse.default_request_timeout = 0

$ echo 65536 | sudo tee /proc/sys/fs/fuse/default_request_timeout
tee: /proc/sys/fs/fuse/default_request_timeout: Invalid argument

$ echo 65535 | sudo tee /proc/sys/fs/fuse/default_request_timeout
65535

$ sysctl -a | grep fuse.default_request_timeout
fs.fuse.default_request_timeout = 65535

$ echo 0 | sudo tee /proc/sys/fs/fuse/default_request_timeout
0

$ sysctl -a | grep fuse.default_request_timeout
fs.fuse.default_request_timeout = 0

[Luis Henriques: Limit the timeout to the range [FUSE_TIMEOUT_TIMER_FREQ,
fuse_max_req_timeout]]

1018424ace s390/smp: Add support for HOTPLUG_SMT
Add support for HOTPLUG_SMT. With this the s390 specific "nosmt" kernel
command line parameter handling is replaced with common code handling.

This means that just specifying "nosmt" still enables smt from an
architectural point of view, however only the primary (base) cpu can be set
online. Enabling smt during runtime via /sys/devices/system/cpu/smt/control
allows to set secondary cpus online. This way "nosmt" works like on other
architectures where enabling and disabling smt during runtime is possible.

If "nosmt=force" is specified smt is also still enabled from an
architectural point of view, but there is no way to set secondary cpus
online during runtime, also like on other architectures.

In order to disable smt from architectural point of view, which was
previously achieved with the s390 specific "nosmt" command line option,
"smt=1" can be used.

0ccff074d6 fwctl first pull request
fwctl is a new subsystem intended to bring some common rules and order to
 the growing pattern of exposing a secure FW interface directly to
 userspace. Unlike existing places like RDMA/DRM/VFIO/uacce that are
 exposing a device for datapath operations fwctl is focused on debugging,
 configuration and provisioning of the device. It will not have the
 necessary features like interrupt delivery to support a datapath.
 
 This concept is similar to the long standing practice in the "HW" RAID
 space of having a device specific misc device to manage the RAID
 controller FW. fwctl generalizes this notion of a companion debug and
 management interface that goes along with a dataplane implemented in an
 appropriate subsystem.
 
 There have been three LWN articles written discussing various aspects of
 this:
 
  https://lwn.net/Articles/955001/
  https://lwn.net/Articles/969383/
  https://lwn.net/Articles/990802/
 
 This pull requests includes three drivers to launch the subsystem:
 
  - CXL provides a vendor scheme for executing commands and a way to learn
    the 'command effects' (ie the security properties) of such
    commands. The fwctl driver allows access to these mechanism within the
    fwctl security model
 
  - mlx5 is family of networking products, the driver supports all current
    Mellanox HW still receiving FW feature updates. This includes RDMA
    multiprotocol NICs like ConnectX and the Bluefield family of Smart
    NICs.
 
  - AMD/Pensando Distributed Services card is a multi protocol Smart NIC
    with a multi PCI function design. fwctl works on the management PCI
    function following a 'command effects' model similar to CXL.

  This includes three drivers to launch the subsystem:

   - CXL provides a vendor scheme for executing commands and a way to
     learn the 'command effects' (ie the security properties) of such
     commands. The fwctl driver allows access to these mechanism within
     the fwctl security model

   - mlx5 is family of networking products, the driver supports all
     current Mellanox HW still receiving FW feature updates. This
     includes RDMA multiprotocol NICs like ConnectX and the Bluefield
     family of Smart NICs.

   - AMD/Pensando Distributed Services card is a multi protocol Smart
     NIC with a multi PCI function design. fwctl works on the management
     PCI function following a 'command effects' model similar to CXL"

 "This brings two main changes to Landlock:

   - A signal scoping fix with a new interface for user space to know if
     it is compatible with the running kernel.

   - Audit support to give visibility on why access requests are denied,
     including the origin of the security policy, missing access rights,
     and description of object(s). This was designed to limit log spam
     as much as possible while still alerting about unexpected blocked
     access.

  With these changes come new and improved documentation, and a lot of
  new tests"

5c5d0d7050 dm-verity: support block number limits for different ioprio classes
Calling verity_verify_io in bh for IO of all sizes is not suitable for
embedded devices. From our tests, it can improve the performance of 4K
synchronise random reads.
For example:
./fio --name=rand_read --ioengine=psync --rw=randread --bs=4K \
 --direct=1 --numjobs=8 --runtime=60 --time_based --group_reporting \
 --filename=/dev/block/mapper/xx-verity

But it will degrade the performance of 512K synchronise sequential reads
on our devices.
For example:
./fio --name=read --ioengine=psync --rw=read --bs=512K --direct=1 \
 --numjobs=8 --runtime=60 --time_based --group_reporting \
 --filename=/dev/block/mapper/xx-verity

A parameter array is introduced by this change. And users can modify the
default config by /sys/module/dm_verity/parameters/use_bh_bytes.

The default limits for NONE/RT/BE is set to 8192.
The default limits for IDLE is set to 0.

Call verity_verify_io directly when verity_end_io is not in hardirq.

   messages from non-panic CPUs during panic. It might be useful when

   chance to see the messages printed before panic() and on the
   panic-CPU.

 - New build option "CONFIG_NULL_TTY_DEFAULT_CONSOLE" allows to build
   kernel without the virtual terminal support which prefers ttynull
   over serial console.

 - Do not unblank suspended consoles.

744fab2d9f tracing updates for v6.15:
- Add option traceoff_after_boot
 
   In order to debug kernel boot, it sometimes is helpful to enable tracing
   via the kernel command line. Unfortunately, by the time the login prompt
   appears, the trace is overwritten by the init process and other user space
   start up applications. Adding a "traceoff_after_boot" will disable tracing
   when the kernel passes control to init which will allow developers to be
   able to see the traces that occurred during boot.
 
 - Clean up the mmflags macros that display the GFP flags in trace events
 
   The macros to print the GFP flags for trace events had a bit of
   duplication. The code was restructured to remove duplication and in the
   process it also adds some flags that were missed before.
 
 - Removed some dead code and scripts/draw_functrace.py
 
   draw_functrace.py hasn't worked in years and as nobody complained
   about it, remove it.
 
 - Constify struct event_trigger_ops
 
   The event_trigger_ops is just a structure that has function pointers that
   are assigned when the variables are created. These variables should all be
   constants.

7d20aa5c32 Power management updates for 6.15-rc1
- Manage sysfs attributes and boost frequencies efficiently from
    cpufreq core to reduce boilerplate code in drivers (Viresh Kumar).
 
  - Minor cleanups to cpufreq drivers (Aaron Kling, Benjamin Schneider,
    Dhananjay Ugwekar, Imran Shaik, zuoqian).
 
  - Migrate some cpufreq drivers to using for_each_present_cpu() (Jacky
    Bai).
 
  - cpufreq-qcom-hw DT binding fixes (Krzysztof Kozlowski).
 
  - Use str_enable_disable() helper in cpufreq_online() (Lifeng Zheng).
 
  - Optimize the amd-pstate driver to avoid cases where call paths end
    up calling the same writes multiple times and needlessly caching
    variables through code reorganization, locking overhaul and tracing
    adjustments (Mario Limonciello, Dhananjay Ugwekar).
 
  - Make it possible to avoid enabling capacity-aware scheduling (CAS) in
    the intel_pstate driver and relocate a check for out-of-band (OOB)
    platform handling in it to make it detect OOB before checking HWP
    availability (Rafael Wysocki).
 
  - Fix dbs_update() to avoid inadvertent conversions of negative integer
    values to unsigned int which causes CPU frequency selection to be
    inaccurate in some cases when the "conservative" cpufreq governor is
    in use (Jie Zhan).
 
  - Update the handling of the most recent idle intervals in the menu
    cpuidle governor to prevent useful information from being discarded
    by it in some cases and improve the prediction accuracy (Rafael
    Wysocki).
 
  - Make it possible to tell the intel_idle driver to ignore its built-in
    table of idle states for the given processor, clean up the handling
    of auto-demotion disabling on Baytrail and Cherrytrail chips in it,
    and update its MAINTAINERS entry (David Arcari, Artem Bityutskiy,
    Rafael Wysocki).
 
  - Make some cpuidle drivers use for_each_present_cpu() instead of
    for_each_possible_cpu() during initialization to avoid issues
    occurring when nosmp or maxcpus=0 are used (Jacky Bai).
 
  - Clean up the Energy Model handling code somewhat (Rafael Wysocki).
 
  - Use kfree_rcu() to simplify the handling of runtime Energy Model
    updates (Li RongQing).
 
  - Add an entry for the Energy Model framework to MAINTAINERS as
    properly maintained (Lukasz Luba).
 
  - Address RCU-related sparse warnings in the Energy Model code (Rafael
    Wysocki).
 
  - Remove ENERGY_MODEL dependency on SMP and allow it to be selected
    when DEVFREQ is set without CPUFREQ so it can be used on a wider
    range of systems (Jeson Gao).
 
  - Unify error handling during runtime suspend and runtime resume in the
    core to help drivers to implement more consistent runtime PM error
    handling (Rafael Wysocki).
 
  - Drop a redundant check from pm_runtime_force_resume() and rearrange
    documentation related to __pm_runtime_disable() (Rafael Wysocki).
 
  - Rework the handling of the "smart suspend" driver flag in the PM core
    to avoid issues hat may occur when drivers using it depend on some
    other drivers and clean up the related PM core code (Rafael Wysocki,
    Colin Ian King).
 
  - Fix the handling of devices with the power.direct_complete flag set
    if device_suspend() returns an error for at least one device to avoid
    situations in which some of them may not be resumed (Rafael Wysocki).
 
  - Use mutex_trylock() in hibernate_compressor_param_set() to avoid a
    possible deadlock that may occur if the "compressor" hibernation
    module parameter is accessed during the registration of a new
    ieee80211 device (Lizhi Xu).
 
  - Suppress sleeping parent warning in device_pm_add() in the case when
    new children are added under a device with the power.direct_complete
    set after it has been processed by device_resume() (Xu Yang).
 
  - Remove needless return in three void functions related to system
    wakeup (Zijun Hu).
 
  - Replace deprecated kmap_atomic() with kmap_local_page() in the
    hibernation core code (David Reaver).
 
  - Remove unused helper functions related to system sleep (David Alan
    Gilbert).
 
  - Clean up s2idle_enter() so it does not lock and unlock CPU offline
    in vain and update comments in it (Ulf Hansson).
 
  - Clean up broken white space in dpm_wait_for_children() (Geert
    Uytterhoeven).
 
  - Update the cpupower utility to fix lib version-ing in it and memory
    leaks in error legs, remove hard-coded values, and implement CPU
    physical core querying (Thomas Renninger, John B. Wyatt IV, Shuah
    Khan, Yiwei Lin, Zhongqiu Han).

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "These are dominated by cpufreq updates which in turn are dominated by
  updates related to boost support in the core and drivers and
  amd-pstate driver optimizations.

  Apart from the above, there are some cpuidle updates including a
  rework of the most recent idle intervals handling in the venerable
  menu governor that leads to significant improvements in some
  performance benchmarks, as the governor is now more likely to predict
  a shorter idle duration in some cases, and there are updates of the
  core device power management code, mostly related to system suspend
  and resume, that should help to avoid potential issues arising when
  the drivers of devices depending on one another want to use different
  optimizations.

  There is also a usual collection of assorted fixes and cleanups,
  including removal of some unused code.

  Specifics:

   - Manage sysfs attributes and boost frequencies efficiently from
     cpufreq core to reduce boilerplate code in drivers (Viresh Kumar)

Pull ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "From the functional perspective, the most significant changes here are
  the ACPI fan driver update allowing it to handle fans with
  fine-grained state checking supported, but without fine-grained
  control, and the ACPI button driver update making it subscribe to
  system event notifications (in addition to device notifications) which
  on some systems is requisite for waking up the system from sleep.

  The rest is fixes and cleanups including removal of some dead code.

  Specifics:

   - Use the str_on_off() helper function instead of hard-coded strings
     in the ACPI power resources handling code (Thorsten Blum)

   - Add fan speed reporting for ACPI fans that have _FST, but otherwise
     do not support the entire ACPI 4 fan interface (Joshua Grisham)

   - Fix a stale comment regarding trip points in acpi_thermal_add()
     that diverged from the commented code after removing _CRT
     evaluation from acpi_thermal_get_trip_points() (xueqin Luo)

   - Make ACPI button driver also subscribe to system events (Mario
     Limonciello)

   - Use the str_yes_no() helper function instead of hard-coded strings
     in the ACPI backlight (video) driver (Thorsten Blum)

   - Add a missing header file include to the x86 arch CPPC code (Mario
     Limonciello)

   - Rework the sysfs attributes implementation in the ACPI
     platform-profile driver and improve the unregistration code in it
     (Nathan Chancellor, Kurt Borja)

   - Prevent the ACPI HED driver from being built as a module and change
     its initcall level to subsys_initcall to avoid initialization
     ordering issues related to it (Xiaofei Tan)

   - Update a maintainer email address in the ACPI PMIC entry in
     MAINTAINERS (Mika Westerberg)

   - Address a GCC 15's -Wunterminated-string-initialization warning in
     the core PNP subsystem code and remove some dead code from it (Kees

3181424aea x86/early_printk: Add support for MMIO-based UARTs
During the bring-up of an x86 board, the kernel was crashing before
reaching the platform's console driver because of a bug in the firmware,
leaving no trace of the boot progress.

The only available method to debug the kernel boot process was via the
platform's MMIO-based UART, as the board lacked an I/O port-based UART,
PCI UART, or functional video output.

Then it turned out that earlyprintk= does not have a knob to configure
the MMIO-mapped UART.

Extend the early printk facility to support platform MMIO-based UARTs
on x86 systems, enabling debugging during the system bring-up phase.

The command line syntax to enable platform MMIO-based UART is:

  earlyprintk=mmio,membase[,{nocfg|baudrate}][,keep]

Note, the change does not integrate MMIO-based UART support to:

  arch/x86/boot/early_serial_console.c

Also, update kernel parameters documentation with the new syntax and
add the missing 'nocfg' setting to the PCI serial cards description.

3ba7dfb8da RCU pull request for v6.15
This pull request contains the following branches:
 
 docs.2025.02.04a:
  - Add broken-timing possibility to stallwarn.rst.
  - Improve discussion of this_cpu_ptr(), add raw_cpu_ptr().
  - Document self-propagating callbacks.
  - Point call_srcu() to call_rcu() for detailed memory ordering.
  - Add CONFIG_RCU_LAZY delays to call_rcu() kernel-doc header.
  - Clarify RCU_LAZY and RCU_LAZY_DEFAULT_OFF help text.
  - Remove references to old grace-period-wait primitives.
 
 srcu.2025.02.05a:
  - Introduce srcu_read_{un,}lock_fast(), which is similar to
    srcu_read_{un,}lock_lite(): avoid smp_mb()s in lock and unlock at the
    cost of calling synchronize_rcu() in synchronize_srcu(). Moreover, by
    returning the percpu offset of the counter at srcu_read_lock_fast()
    time, srcu_read_unlock_fast() can save extra pointer dereferencing,
    which makes it faster than srcu_read_{un,}lock_lite().
    srcu_read_{un,}lock_fast() are intended to replace
    rcu_read_{un,}lock_trace() if possible.
 
 torture.2025.02.05a:
  - Add get_torture_init_jiffies() to return the start time of the test.
  - Add a test_boost_holdoff module parameter to allow delaying boosting
    tests when building rcutorture as built-in.
  - Add grace period sequence number logging at the beginning and end of
    failure/close-call results.
  - Switch to hexadecimal for the expedited grace period sequence number
    in the rcu_exp_grace_period trace point.
  - Make cur_ops->format_gp_seqs take buffer length.
  - Move RCU_TORTURE_TEST_{CHK_RDR_STATE,LOG_CPU} to bool.
  - Complain when invalid SRCU reader_flavor is specified.
  - Add FORCE_NEED_SRCU_NMI_SAFE Kconfig for testing, which forces SRCU
    uses atomics even when percpu ops are NMI safe, and use the Kconfig
    for SRCU lockdep testing.
 
 misc.2025.03.04a:
  - Split rcu_report_exp_cpu_mult() mask parameter and use for tracing.
  - Remove READ_ONCE() for rdp->gpwrap access in __note_gp_changes().
  - Fix get_state_synchronize_rcu_full() GP-start detection.
  - Move RCU Tasks self-tests to core_initcall().
  - Print segment lengths in show_rcu_nocb_gp_state().
  - Make RCU watch ct_kernel_exit_state() warning.
  - Flush console log from kernel_power_off().
  - rcutorture: Allow a negative value for nfakewriters.
  - rcu: Update TREE05.boot to test normal synchronize_rcu().
  - rcu: Use _full() API to debug synchronize_rcu().
 
 lazypreempt.2025.03.04a: Make RCU handle PREEMPT_LAZY better:
  - Fix header guard for rcu_all_qs().
  - rcu: Rename PREEMPT_AUTO to PREEMPT_LAZY.
  - Update __cond_resched comment about RCU quiescent states.
  - Handle unstable rdp in rcu_read_unlock_strict().
  - Handle quiescent states for PREEMPT_RCU=n, PREEMPT_COUNT=y.
  - osnoise: Provide quiescent states.
  - Adjust rcutorture with possible PREEMPT_RCU=n && PREEMPT_COUNT=y
    combination.
  - Limit PREEMPT_RCU configurations.
  - Make rcutorture senario TREE07 and senario TREE10 use PREEMPT_LAZY=y.

f81c2b8150 It has been a reasonably busy cycle for docs...
- Significant changes throughout the tree to bring Python code up to
   current standards and raise the minimum Python required to 3.9.  Much of
   this is preparatory to replacing the ancient Perl scripts/kernel-doc
   horror with a slightly less horrifying Python implementation, expected
   for 6.16.
 
 - Update the minimum Sphinx required to 3.4.3, allowing us to remove a
   bunch of older compatibility code.
 
 - Rework and improve the generation of the ABI documentation.
 
   (All of the above done by Mauro)
 
 - Lots of translation updates.  Alex Shi and Yanteng Si are taking on
   responsibility for the Chinese translations going forward; that work will
   still get to you via docs-next
 
 - Try to standardize the format for indicating a developer's affiliation in
   commit tags.
 
 - Clarify the TAB's role in CoC enforcement actions.
 
 - Try to spell out the rules for when a commit tag can name another
   developer without their explicit permission.
 
 Plus lots of other typo fixes and updates.

7a9072d859 Merge branch 'pm-cpuidle'
Merge cpuidle updates for 6.15-rc5, including a menu governor update
that is reported to improve some benchmark results quite significantly:

 - Update the handling of the most recent idle intervals in the menu
   cpuidle governor to prevent useful information from being discarded
   by it in some cases and improve the prediction accuracy (Rafael
   Wysocki).

 - Make it possible to tell the intel_idle driver to ignore its built-in
   table of idle states for the given processor, clean up the handling
   of auto-demotion disabling on Baytrail and Cherrytrail chips in it,
   and update its MAINTAINERS entry (David Arcari, Artem Bityutskiy,
   Rafael Wysocki).

 - Make some cpuidle drivers use for_each_present_cpu() instead of
   for_each_possible_cpu() during initialization to avoid issues
   occurring when nosmp or maxcpus=0 are used (Jacky Bai).

* pm-cpuidle:
  cpuidle: Init cpuidle only for present CPUs

Merge cpufreq updates for 6.15-rc1:

 - Manage sysfs attributes and boost frequencies efficiently from
   cpufreq core to reduce boilerplate code from drivers (Viresh Kumar).

 - Minor cleanups to cpufreq drivers (Aaron Kling, Benjamin Schneider,
   Dhananjay Ugwekar, Imran Shaik, and zuoqian).

 - Migrate some cpufreq drivers to using for_each_present_cpu() (Jacky
   Bai).

 - cpufreq-qcom-hw DT binding fixes (Krzysztof Kozlowski).

 - Use str_enable_disable() helper in cpufreq_online() (Lifeng Zheng).

 - Optimize the amd-pstate driver to avoid cases where call paths end
   up calling the same writes multiple times and needlessly caching
   variables through code reorganization, locking overhaul and tracing
   adjustments (Mario Limonciello, Dhananjay Ugwekar).

 - Make it possible to avoid enabling capacity-aware scheduling (CAS) in
   the intel_pstate driver and relocate a check for out-of-band (OOB)
   platform handling in it to make it detect OOB before checking HWP
   availability (Rafael Wysocki).

 - Fix dbs_update() to avoid inadvertent conversions of negative integer
   values to unsigned int which causes CPU frequency selection to be
   inaccurate in some cases when the "conservative" cpufreq governor is
   in use (Jie Zhan).

e452872b40 mm: vmscan: split proactive reclaim statistics from direct reclaim statistics
Patch series "Adding Proactive Memory Reclaim Statistics".

These two patches are related to proactive memory reclaim.

Patch 1 Split proactive reclaim statistics from direct reclaim counters
and introduces new counters: pgsteal_proactive, pgdemote_proactive,
and pgscan_proactive.

Patch 2 Adds pswpin and pswpout items to the cgroup-v2 documentation.


This patch (of 2):

In proactive memory reclaim scenarios, it is necessary to accurately track
proactive reclaim statistics to dynamically adjust the frequency and
amount of memory being reclaimed proactively.  Currently, proactive
reclaim is included in direct reclaim statistics, which can make these
direct reclaim statistics misleading.

Therefore, separate proactive reclaim memory from the direct reclaim
counters by introducing new counters: pgsteal_proactive,
pgdemote_proactive, and pgscan_proactive, to avoid confusion with direct
reclaim.

c1aa3daa51 printk/panic: Add option to allow non-panic CPUs to write to the ring buffer.
Commit 779dbc2e78 ("printk: Avoid non-panic CPUs writing to ringbuffer")
aimed to isolate panic-related messages. However, when panic() itself
malfunctions, messages from non-panic CPUs become crucial for debugging.

While commit bcc954c6ca ("printk/panic: Allow cpu backtraces to
be written into ringbuffer during panic") enables non-panic CPU
backtraces, it may not provide sufficient diagnostic information.

Introduce the "debug_non_panic_cpus" command-line option, enabling
non-panic CPU messages to be stored in the ring buffer during a panic.
This also prevents discarding non-finalized messages from non-panic CPUs
during console flushing, providing a more comprehensive view of system
state during critical failures.

722fa0dba7 x86/rfds: Exclude P-only parts from the RFDS affected list
The affected CPU table (cpu_vuln_blacklist) marks Alderlake and Raptorlake
P-only parts affected by RFDS. This is not true because only E-cores are
affected by RFDS. With the current family/model matching it is not possible
to differentiate the unaffected parts, as the affected and unaffected
hybrid variants have the same model number.

Add a cpu-type match as well for such parts so as to exclude P-only parts
being marked as affected.

Note, family/model and cpu-type enumeration could be inaccurate in
virtualized environments. In a guest affected status is decided by RFDS_NO
and RFDS_CLEAR bits exposed by VMMs.

e3aa7df331 mm: page_alloc: defrag_mode
The page allocator groups requests by migratetype to stave off
fragmentation.  However, in practice this is routinely defeated by the
fact that it gives up *before* invoking reclaim and compaction - which may
well produce suitable pages.  As a result, fragmentation of physical
memory is a common ongoing process in many load scenarios.

Fragmentation deteriorates compaction's ability to produce huge pages. 
Depending on the lifetime of the fragmenting allocations, those effects
can be long-lasting or even permanent, requiring drastic measures like
forcible idle states or even reboots as the only reliable ways to recover
the address space for THP production.

In a kernel build test with supplemental THP pressure, the THP allocation
rate steadily declines over 15 runs:

    thp_fault_alloc
    61988
    56474
    57258
    50187
    52388
    55409
    52925
    47648
    43669
    40621
    36077
    41721
    36685
    34641
    33215

This is a hurdle in adopting THP in any environment where hosts are shared
between multiple overlapping workloads (cloud environments), and rarely
experience true idle periods.  To make THP a reliable and predictable
optimization, there needs to be a stronger guarantee to avoid such
fragmentation.

Introduce defrag_mode.  When enabled, reclaim/compaction is invoked to its
full extent *before* falling back.  Specifically, ALLOC_NOFRAGMENT is
enforced on the allocator fastpath and the reclaiming slowpath.

For now, fallbacks are permitted to avert OOMs.  There is a plan to add
defrag_mode=2 to prefer OOMs over fragmentation, but this requires
additional prep work in compaction and the reserve management to make it
ready for all possible allocation contexts.

The following test results are from a kernel build with periodic bursts of
THP allocations, over 15 runs:

                                        vanilla    defrag_mode=1

@steal[reclaimable from movable]:            90                0
@steal[movable from reclaimable]:           354                0
@steal[movable from unmovable]:             130                0

Both types of polluting fallbacks are eliminated in this workload.

Interestingly, whole block conversions are reduced as well.  This is
because once a block is claimed for a type, its empty space remains
available for future allocations, instead of being padded with fallbacks;
this allows the native type to group up instead of spreading out to new
blocks.  The assumption in the allocator has been that pollution from
movable allocations is less harmful than from other types, since they can
be reclaimed or migrated out should the space be needed.  However, since
fallbacks occur *before* reclaim/compaction is invoked, movable pollution
will still cause non-movable allocations to spread out and claim more
blocks.

Without fragmentation, THP rates hold steady with defrag_mode=1:

    thp_fault_alloc
    32478
    20725
    45045
    32130
    14018
    21711
    40791
    29134
    34458
    45381
    28305
    17265
    22584
    28454
    30850

While the downward trend is eliminated, the keen reader will of course
notice that the baseline rate is much smaller than the vanilla kernel's to
begin with.  This is due to deficiencies in how reclaim and compaction are
currently driven: ALLOC_NOFRAGMENT increases the extent to which smaller
allocations are competing with THPs for pageblocks, while making no effort
themselves to reclaim or compact beyond their own request size.  This
effect already exists with the current usage of ALLOC_NOFRAGMENT, but is
amplified by defrag_mode insisting on whole block stealing much more
strongly.

Subsequent patches will address defrag_mode reclaim strategy to raise the
THP success baseline above the vanilla kernel.

749492229e mm: stop maintaining the per-page mapcount of large folios (CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT)
Everything is in place to stop using the per-page mapcounts in large
folios: the mapcount of tail pages will always be logically 0 (-1 value),
just like it currently is for hugetlb folios already, and the page
mapcount of the head page is either 0 (-1 value) or contains a page type
(e.g., hugetlb).

Maintaining _nr_pages_mapped without per-page mapcounts is impossible, so
that one also has to go with CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT.

There are two remaining implications:

(1) Per-node, per-cgroup and per-lruvec stats of "NR_ANON_MAPPED"
    ("mapped anonymous memory") and "NR_FILE_MAPPED"
    ("mapped file memory"):

    As soon as any page of the folio is mapped -- folio_mapped() -- we
    now account the complete folio as mapped. Once the last page is
    unmapped -- !folio_mapped() -- we account the complete folio as
    unmapped.

    This implies that ...

    * "AnonPages" and "Mapped" in /proc/meminfo and
      /sys/devices/system/node/*/meminfo
    * cgroup v2: "anon" and "file_mapped" in "memory.stat" and
      "memory.numa_stat"
    * cgroup v1: "rss" and "mapped_file" in "memory.stat" and
      "memory.numa_stat

    ... can now appear higher than before. But note that these folios do
    consume that memory, simply not all pages are actually currently
    mapped.

    It's worth nothing that other accounting in the kernel (esp. cgroup
    charging on allocation) is not affected by this change.

    [why oh why is "anon" called "rss" in cgroup v1]

 (2) Detecting partial mappings

     Detecting whether anon THPs are partially mapped gets a bit more
     unreliable. As long as a single MM maps such a large folio
     ("exclusively mapped"), we can reliably detect it. Especially before
     fork() / after a short-lived child process quit, we will detect
     partial mappings reliably, which is the common case.

     In essence, if the average per-page mapcount in an anon THP is < 1,
     we know for sure that we have a partial mapping.

     However, as soon as multiple MMs are involved, we might miss detecting
     partial mappings: this might be relevant with long-lived child
     processes. If we have a fully-mapped anon folio before fork(), once
     our child processes and our parent all unmap (zap/COW) the same pages
     (but not the complete folio), we might not detect the partial mapping.
     However, once the child processes quit we would detect the partial
     mapping.

     How relevant this case is in practice remains to be seen.
     Swapout/migration will likely mitigate this.

     In the future, RMAP walkers could check for that for that case
     (e.g., when collecting access bits during reclaim) and simply flag
     them for deferred-splitting.

eb16876971 fs/proc/task_mmu: remove per-page mapcount dependency for PM_MMAP_EXCLUSIVE (CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT)
Let's implement an alternative when per-page mapcounts in large folios are
no longer maintained -- soon with CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT.

PM_MMAP_EXCLUSIVE will now be set if folio_likely_mapped_shared() is true
-- when the folio is considered "mapped shared", including when it once
was "mapped shared" but no longer is, as documented.

This might result in and under-indication of "exclusively mapped", which
is considered better than over-indicating it: under-estimating the USS
(Unique Set Size) is better than over-estimating it.

As an alternative, we could simply remove that flag with
CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT completely, but there might be value to it.  So,
let's keep it like that and document the behavior.

ae4192b769 fs/proc/page: remove per-page mapcount dependency for /proc/kpagecount (CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT)
Let's implement an alternative when per-page mapcounts in large folios are
no longer maintained -- soon with CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT.

For large folios, we'll return the per-page average mapcount within the
folio, whereby we round to the closest integer when calculating the
average: however, we'll always return at least 1 if the folio is mapped.

So assuming a folio with 512 pages, the average would be:
* 0 if not pages are mapped
* 1 if there are 1 .. 767 per-page mappings
* 2 if there are 767 .. 1279 per-page mappings
...

For hugetlb folios and for large folios that are fully mapped into all
address spaces, there is no change.

We'll make use of this helper in other context next.

As an alternative, we could simply return 0 for non-hugetlb large folios,
or disable this legacy interface with CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT.

But the information exposed by this interface can still be valuable, and
frequently we deal with fully-mapped large folios where the average
corresponds to the actual page mapcount.  So we'll leave it like this for
now and document the new behavior.

Note: this interface is likely not very relevant for performance.  If ever
required, we could try doing a rather expensive rmap walk to collect
precisely how often this folio page is mapped.

2f1f7787b6 printk: Add an option to allow ttynull to be a default console device
The new option is CONFIG_NULL_TTY_DEFAULT_CONSOLE.

if enabled, and CONFIG_VT is disabled, ttynull will become the default
primary console device.

ttynull will be the only console device usually with this option enabled.
Some architectures do call add_preferred_console() which may add another
console though.

Motivation:

Many distributions ship with CONFIG_VT enabled. On tested desktop hardware
if CONFIG_VT is disabled, the default console device falls back to
/dev/ttyS0 instead of /dev/tty.

This could cause issues in user space, and hardware problems:

1. The user space issues include the case where  /dev/ttyS0 is
disconnected, and the TCGETS ioctl, which some user space libraries use
as a probe to determine if a file is a tty, is called on /dev/console and
fails. Programs that call isatty() on /dev/console and get an incorrect
false value may skip expected logging to /dev/console.

2. The hardware issues include the case if a user has a science instrument
or other device connected to the /dev/ttyS0 port, and they were to upgrade
to a kernel that is disabling the CONFIG_VT option, kernel logs will then
be sent to the device connected to /dev/ttyS0 unless they edit their
kernel command line manually.

The new CONFIG_NULL_TTY_DEFAULT_CONSOLE option will give users and
distribution maintainers an option to avoid this. Disabling CONFIG_VT and
enabling CONFIG_NULL_TTY_DEFAULT_CONSOLE will ensure the default kernel
console behavior is not dependent on hardware configuration by default, and
avoid unexpected new behavior on devices connected to the /dev/ttyS0 serial
port.

e016173f65 reboot: add support for configuring emergency hardware protection action
We currently leave the decision of whether to shutdown or reboot to
protect hardware in an emergency situation to the individual drivers.

This works out in some cases, where the driver detecting the critical
failure has inside knowledge: It binds to the system management controller
for example or is guided by hardware description that defines what to do.

In the general case, however, the driver detecting the issue can't know
what the appropriate course of action is and shouldn't be dictating the
policy of dealing with it.

Therefore, add a global hw_protection toggle that allows the user to
specify whether shutdown or reboot should be the default action when the
driver doesn't set policy.

This introduces no functional change yet as hw_protection_trigger() has no
callers, but these will be added in subsequent commits.

8e2f2aeb8b fs/proc/task_mmu: add guard region bit to pagemap
Patch series "fs/proc/task_mmu: add guard region bit to pagemap".

Currently there is no means of determining whether a given page in a
mapping range is designated a guard region (as installed via madvise()
using the MADV_GUARD_INSTALL flag).

This is generally not an issue, but in some instances users may wish to
determine whether this is the case.

This series adds this ability via /proc/$pid/pagemap, updates the
documentation and adds a self test to assert that this functions
correctly.


This patch (of 2):

Currently there is no means by which users can determine whether a given
page in memory is in fact a guard region, that is having had the
MADV_GUARD_INSTALL madvise() flag applied to it.

This is intentional, as to provide this information in VMA metadata would
contradict the intent of the feature (providing a means to change fault
behaviour at a page table level rather than a VMA level), and would
require VMA metadata operations to scan page tables, which is
unacceptable.

In many cases, users have no need to reflect and determine what regions
have been designated guard regions, as it is the user who has established
them in the first place.

But in some instances, such as monitoring software, or software that
relies upon being able to ascertain the nature of mappings within a remote
process for instance, it becomes useful to be able to determine which
pages have the guard region marker applied.

This patch makes use of an unused pagemap bit (58) to provide this
information.

This patch updates the documentation at the same time as making the change
such that the implementation of the feature and the documentation of it
are tied together.

f866cfcec2 mm/hugetlb: add hugetlb_cma_only cmdline option
Add an option to force hugetlb gigantic pages to be allocated using CMA
only (if hugetlb_cma is enabled).  This avoids a fallback to allocation
from the rest of system memory if the CMA allocation fails.  This makes
the size of hugetlb_cma a hard upper boundary for gigantic hugetlb page
allocations.

This is useful because, with a large CMA area, the kernel's unmovable
allocations will have less room to work with and it is undesirable for new
hugetlb gigantic page allocations to be done from that remaining area.  It
will eat in to the space available for unmovable allocations, leading to
unwanted system behavior (OOMs because the kernel fails to do unmovable
allocations).

So, with this enabled, an administrator can force a hard upper bound for
runtime gigantic page allocations, and have more predictable system
behavior.

5b47c02967 mm/hugetlb: convert cmdline parameters from setup to early
Convert the cmdline parameters (hugepagesz, hugepages, default_hugepagesz
and hugetlb_free_vmemmap) to early parameters.

Since parse_early_param might run before MMU setups on some platforms
(powerpc), validation of huge page sizes as specified in command line
parameters would fail.  So instead, for the hstate-related values, just
record the them and parse them on demand, from hugetlb_bootmem_alloc.

The allocation of hugetlb bootmem pages is now done in
hugetlb_bootmem_alloc, which is called explicitly at the start of
mm_core_init().  core_initcall would be too late, as that happens with
memblock already torn down.

This change will allow earlier allocation and initialization of bootmem
hugetlb pages later on.

No functional change intended.

c009da4258 mm, cma: support multiple contiguous ranges, if requested
Currently, CMA manages one range of physically contiguous memory. 
Creation of larger CMA areas with hugetlb_cma may run in to gaps in
physical memory, so that they are not able to allocate that contiguous
physical range from memblock when creating the CMA area.

This can happen, for example, on an AMD system with > 1TB of memory, where
there will be a gap just below the 1TB (40bit DMA) line.  If you have set
aside most of memory for potential hugetlb CMA allocation,
cma_declare_contiguous_nid will fail.

hugetlb_cma doesn't need the entire area to be one physically contiguous
range.  It just cares about being able to get physically contiguous chunks
of a certain size (e.g.  1G), and it is fine to have the CMA area backed
by multiple physical ranges, as long as it gets 1G contiguous allocations.

Multi-range support is implemented by introducing an array of ranges,
instead of just one big one.  Each range has its own bitmap.  Effectively,
the allocate and release operations work as before, just per-range.  So,
instead of going through one large bitmap, they now go through a number of
smaller ones.

The maximum number of supported ranges is 8, as defined in CMA_MAX_RANGES.

Since some current users of CMA expect a CMA area to just use one
physically contiguous range, only allow for multiple ranges if a new
interface, cma_declare_contiguous_nid_multi, is used.  The other
interfaces will work like before, creating only CMA areas with 1 range.

cma_declare_contiguous_nid_multi works as follows, mimicking the
default "bottom-up, above 4G" reservation approach:

0) Try cma_declare_contiguous_nid, which will use only one
   region. If this succeeds, return. This makes sure that for
   all the cases that currently work, the behavior remains
   unchanged even if the caller switches from
   cma_declare_contiguous_nid to cma_declare_contiguous_nid_multi.
1) Select the largest free memblock ranges above 4G, with
   a maximum number of CMA_MAX_RANGES.
2) If we did not find at most CMA_MAX_RANGES that add
   up to the total size requested, return -ENOMEM.
3) Sort the selected ranges by base address.
4) Reserve them bottom-up until we get what we wanted.

6df8bae8e8 mm: zbud: remove zbud
The zbud compressed pages allocator is rarely used, most users use
zsmalloc.  zbud consumes much more memory (only stores 1 or 2 compressed
pages per physical page).  The only advantage of zbud is a marginal
performance improvement that by no means justify the memory overhead.

Historically, zsmalloc had significantly worse latency than zbud and
z3fold but offered better memory savings.  This is no longer the case as
shown by a simple recent analysis [1].  In a kernel build test on tmpfs in
a limited cgroup, zbud 2-3% less time than zsmalloc, but at the cost of
using ~32% more memory (1.5G vs 1.13G).  The tradeoff does not make sense
for zbud in any practical scenario.

The only alleged advantage of zbud is not having the dependency on
CONFIG_MMU, but CONFIG_SWAP already depends on CONFIG_MMU anyway, and zbud
is only used by zswap.

Remove zbud after z3fold's removal, leaving zsmalloc as the one and only
zpool allocator.  Leave the removal of the zpool API (and its associated
config options) to a followup cleanup after no more allocators show up.

Deprecating zbud for a few cycles before removing it was initially
proposed [2], like z3fold was marked as deprecated for 2 cycles [3]. 
However, Johannes rightfully pointed out that the 2 cycles is too short
for most downstream consumers, and z3fold was deprecated first only as a
courtesy anyway.

98fdaeb296 x86/bugs: Make spectre user default depend on MITIGATION_SPECTRE_V2
Change the default value of spectre v2 in user mode to respect the
CONFIG_MITIGATION_SPECTRE_V2 config option.

Currently, user mode spectre v2 is set to auto
(SPECTRE_V2_USER_CMD_AUTO) by default, even if
CONFIG_MITIGATION_SPECTRE_V2 is disabled.

Set the spectre_v2 value to auto (SPECTRE_V2_USER_CMD_AUTO) if the
Spectre v2 config (CONFIG_MITIGATION_SPECTRE_V2) is enabled, otherwise
set the value to none (SPECTRE_V2_USER_CMD_NONE).

Important to say the command line argument "spectre_v2_user" overwrites
the default value in both cases.

When CONFIG_MITIGATION_SPECTRE_V2 is not set, users have the flexibility
to opt-in for specific mitigations independently. In this scenario,
setting spectre_v2= will not enable spectre_v2_user=, and command line
options spectre_v2_user and spectre_v2 are independent when
CONFIG_MITIGATION_SPECTRE_V2=n.

bbeb69ce30 x86/mm: Remove CONFIG_HIGHMEM64G support
HIGHMEM64G support was added in linux-2.3.25 to support (then)
high-end Pentium Pro and Pentium III Xeon servers with more than 4GB of
addressing, NUMA and PCI-X slots started appearing.

I have found no evidence of this ever being used in regular dual-socket
servers or consumer devices, all the users seem obsolete these days,
even by i386 standards:

 - Support for NUMA servers (NUMA-Q, IBM x440, unisys) was already
   removed ten years ago.

 - 4+ socket non-NUMA servers based on Intel 450GX/450NX, HP F8 and
   ServerWorks ServerSet/GrandChampion could theoretically still work
   with 8GB, but these were exceptionally rare even 20 years ago and
   would have usually been equipped with than the maximum amount of
   RAM.

 - Some SKUs of the Celeron D from 2004 had 64-bit mode fused off but
   could still work in a Socket 775 mainboard designed for the later
   Core 2 Duo and 8GB. Apparently most BIOSes at the time only allowed
   64-bit CPUs.

 - The rare Xeon LV "Sossaman" came on a few motherboards with
   registered DDR2 memory support up to 16GB.

 - In the early days of x86-64 hardware, there was sometimes the need
   to run a 32-bit kernel to work around bugs in the hardware drivers,
   or in the syscall emulation for 32-bit userspace. This likely still
   works but there should never be a need for this any more.

PAE mode is still required to get access to the 'NX' bit on Atom
'Pentium M' and 'Core Duo' CPUs.

0abf508675 x86/smp: Drop 32-bit "bigsmp" machine support
The x86-32 kernel used to support multiple platforms with more than eight
logical CPUs, from the 1999-2003 timeframe: Sequent NUMA-Q, IBM Summit,
Unisys ES7000 and HP F8. Support for all except the latter was dropped
back in 2014, leaving only the F8 based DL740 and DL760 G2 machines in
this catery, with up to eight single-core Socket-603 Xeon-MP processors
with hyperthreading.

Like the already removed machines, the HP F8 servers at the time cost
upwards of $100k in typical configurations, but were quickly obsoleted
by their 64-bit Socket-604 cousins and the AMD Opteron.

Earlier servers with up to 8 Pentium Pro or Xeon processors remain
fully supported as they had no hyperthreading. Similarly, the more
common 4-socket Xeon-MP machines with hyperthreading using Intel
or ServerWorks chipsets continue to work without this, and all the
multi-core Xeon processors also run 64-bit kernels.

While the "bigsmp" support can also be used to run on later 64-bit
machines (including VM guests), it seems best to discourage that
and get any remaining users to update their kernels to 64-bit builds
on these. As a side-effect of this, there is also no more need to
support NUMA configurations on 32-bit x86, as all true 32-bit
NUMA platforms are already gone.

Enable BpSpecReduce to mitigate SRSO across guest/host boundaries.

Switch back to enabling the bit when virtualization is enabled and to
clear the bit when virtualization is disabled because using a MSR slot
would clear the bit when the guest is exited and any training the guest
has done, would potentially influence the host kernel when execution
enters the kernel and hasn't VMRUN the guest yet.

de585eac08 Merge branch 'cpuidle-menu'
This work had been triggered by a report that commit 0611a640e6
("eventpoll: prefer kfree_rcu() in __ep_remove()") had caused the
critical-jOPS metric of the SPECjbb 2015 benchmark [1] to drop by around
50% even though it generally reduced kernel overhead.  Indeed, it was
found during further investigation that the total interrupt rate while
running the SPECjbb workload had fallen as a result of that commit by
55% and the local timer interrupt rate had fallen by almost 80%.

That turned out to cause the menu cpuidle governor to select the deepest
idle state supplied by the cpuidle driver (intel_idle) much more often
which added significantly more idle state latency to the workload and
that led to the decrease of the critical-jOPS score.

Interestingly enough, this problem was not visible when the teo cpuidle
governor was used instead of menu, so it appeared to be specific to the
latter.  CPU wakeup event statistics collected while running the
workload indicated that the menu governor was effectively ignoring non-
timer wakeup information and all of its idle state selection decisions
appeared to be based on timer wakeups only.  Thus, it appeared that the
reduction of the local timer interrupt rate caused the governor to
predict a idle duration much more often while running the workload and
the deepest idle state was selected significantly more often as a result
of that.

A subsequent inspection of the get_typical_interval() function in the
menu governor indicated that it might return UINT_MAX too often which
then caused the governor's decisions to be based entirely on information
related to timers.

Generally speaking, UINT_MAX is returned by get_typical_interval() if it
cannot make a prediction based on the most recent idle intervals data
with sufficiently high confidence, but at least in some cases this means
that useful information is not taken into account at all which may lead
to significant idle state selection mistakes.  Moreover, this is not
really unlikely to happen.

One issue with get_typical_interval() is that, when it eliminates
outliers from the sample set in an attempt to reduce the standard
deviation (and so improve the prediction confidence), it does that by
dropping high-end samples only, while samples at the low end of the set
are retained.  However, the samples at the low end very well may be the
outliers and they should be eliminated from the sample set instead of
the high-end samples.  Accordingly, the likelihood of making a
meaningful idle duration prediction can be improved by making it also
eliminate low-end samples if they are farther from the average than
high-end samples.

Another issue is that get_typical_interval() gives up after eliminating
1/4 of the samples if the standard deviation is still not as low as
desired (within 1/6 of the average or within 20 us if the average is
close to 0), but the remaining samples in the set still represent useful
information at that point and discarding them altogether may lead to
suboptimal idle state selection.

For instance, the largest idle duration value in the get_typical_interval()
data set is the maximum idle duration observed recently and it is likely
that the upcoming idle duration will not exceed it.  Therefore, in the
absence of a better choice, this value can be used as an upper bound on
the target residency of the idle state to select.

  cpuidle: menu: Avoid discarding useful information

5e7e39ae15 intel_idle: introduce 'no_native' module parameter
Since commit 18734958e9 ("intel_idle: Use ACPI _CST for processor models
without C-state tables") the intel_idle driver has had the ability to use
the ACPI _CST to populate C-states when the processor model is not
recognized.

However, even when the processor model is recognized (native mode) there
are cases where it is useful to make the driver ignore the per-CPU idle
states in lieu of ACPI C-states (such as specific application performance).

Add a new 'no_native' module parameter to provide this functionality.

fbb4a4759b cpufreq: Introduce an optional cpuinfo_avg_freq sysfs entry
Currently the CPUFreq core exposes two sysfs attributes that can be used
to query current frequency of a given CPU(s): namely cpuinfo_cur_freq
and scaling_cur_freq. Both provide slightly different view on the
subject and they do come with their own drawbacks.

cpuinfo_cur_freq provides higher precision though at a cost of being
rather expensive. Moreover, the information retrieved via this attribute
is somewhat short lived as frequency can change at any point of time
making it difficult to reason from.

scaling_cur_freq, on the other hand, tends to be less accurate but then
the actual level of precision (and source of information) varies between
architectures making it a bit ambiguous.

The new attribute, cpuinfo_avg_freq, is intended to provide more stable,
distinct interface, exposing an average frequency of a given CPU(s), as
reported by the hardware, over a time frame spanning no more than a few
milliseconds. As it requires appropriate hardware support, this
interface is optional.

Note that under the hood, the new attribute relies on the information
provided by arch_freq_get_on_cpu, which, up to this point, has been
feeding data for scaling_cur_freq attribute, being the source of
ambiguity when it comes to interpretation. This has been amended by
restoring the intended behavior for scaling_cur_freq, with a new
dedicated config option to maintain status quo for those, who may need
it.

de61d6515b docs: ABI: move README contents to the top
The ABI documentation looks a little bit better if it starts
with the contents of the README is placed at the beginning.

Move it to the beginning of the ABI chapter. While here, improve
the README text and change the title that will be shown at the
html/pdf output to be coherent with both ABI file contents and
with the generated documentation output.

4bb2dbd757 docs: admin-guide/abi: split files from symbols
Now that get_abi has gained support for filtering its output,
split ABI symbols from files at the html output.

That makes pages smaller and easier to navigate.

As an additional bonus, as it will paralelize files handling,
it gives an additional performance improvement.

5d7871d77f docs: sphinx/kernel_abi: parse ABI files only once
Right now, the logic parses ABI files on 4 steps, one for each
directory. While this is fine in principle, by doing that, not
all symbol cross-references will be created.

Change the logic to do the parsing only once in order to get
a global dictionary to be used when creating ABI cross-references.

b8726c5aa6 rcutorture: Add a test_boost_holdoff module parameter
This commit adds a test_boost_holdoff module parameter that tells the RCU
priority-boosting tests to wait for the specified number of seconds past
the start of the rcutorture test.  This can be useful when rcutorture
is built into the kernel (as opposed to being modprobed), especially on
large systems where early start of RCU priority boosting can delay the
boot sequence, which adds a full CPU's worth of load onto the system.
This can in turn result in pointless stall warnings.

deca423213 ata: libata-core: Add 'external' to the libata.force kernel parameter
Commit ae1f3db006 ("ata: ahci: do not enable LPM on external ports")
changed so that LPM is not enabled on external ports (hotplug-capable or
eSATA ports).

This is because hotplug and LPM are mutually exclusive, see 7.3.1 Hot Plug
Removal Detection and Power Management Interaction in AHCI 1.3.1.

This does require that firmware has set the appropate bits (HPCP or ESP)
in PxCMD (which is a per port register in the AHCI controller).

If the firmware has failed to mark a port as hotplug-capable or eSATA in
PxCMD, then there is currently not much a user can do.

If LPM is enabled on the port, hotplug insertions and removals will not be
detected on that port.

In order to allow a user to fix up broken firmware, add 'external' to the
libata.force kernel parameter.

libata.force can be specified either on the kernel command line, or as a
kernel module parameter.

For more information, see Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt.

d24393450b Docs/admin-guide/mm/damon/start: update snapshot example
Two of DAMON user-space tool (damo) commands that are used for examples on
DAMON getting started document, namely 'damo show' and 'damo report heats'
are deprecated[1,2], and replaced by new commands that provides same
functions with unified and simplified user interfaces.  Also the example
output of 'damo show' is outdated.  'damo schemes' command is not
deprecated, but users are recommended to use 'damo start' or 'damo tune'
instead.

Update the examples to use the replacements, recommendations, and
up-to-date output formats.

44d46b76c3 mm: add build-time option for hotplug memory default online type
Memory hotplug presently auto-onlines memory into a zone the kernel deems
appropriate if CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG_DEFAULT_ONLINE=y.

The memhp_default_state boot param enables runtime config, but it's not
possible to do this at build-time.

Remove CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG_DEFAULT_ONLINE, and replace it with
CONFIG_MHP_DEFAULT_ONLINE_TYPE_* choices that sync with the boot param.

Selections:
  CONFIG_MHP_DEFAULT_ONLINE_TYPE_OFFLINE
    => mhp_default_online_type = "offline"
       Memory will not be onlined automatically.

  CONFIG_MHP_DEFAULT_ONLINE_TYPE_ONLINE_AUTO
    => mhp_default_online_type = "online"
       Memory will be onlined automatically in a zone deemed.
       appropriate by the kernel.

  CONFIG_MHP_DEFAULT_ONLINE_TYPE_ONLINE_KERNEL
    => mhp_default_online_type = "online_kernel"
       Memory will be onlined automatically.
       The zone may allow kernel data (e.g. ZONE_NORMAL).

  CONFIG_MHP_DEFAULT_ONLINE_TYPE_ONLINE_MOVABLE
    => mhp_default_online_type = "online_movable"
       Memory will be onlined automatically.
       The zone will be ZONE_MOVABLE.

Default to CONFIG_MHP_DEFAULT_ONLINE_TYPE_OFFLINE to match the existing
default CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG_DEFAULT_ONLINE=n behavior.

Existing users of CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG_DEFAULT_ONLINE=y should use
CONFIG_MHP_DEFAULT_ONLINE_TYPE_ONLINE_AUTO.

Merge tag 'pci-v6.14-changes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pci/pci

Pull pci updates from Bjorn Helgaas:
 "Enumeration:

   - Batch sizing of multiple BARs while memory decoding is disabled
     instead of disabling/enabling decoding for each BAR individually;
     this optimizes virtualized environments where toggling decoding
     enable is expensive (Alex Williamson)

   - Add host bridge .enable_device() and .disable_device() hooks for
     bridges that need to configure things like Requester ID to StreamID
     mapping when enabling devices (Frank Li)

   - Extend struct pci_ecam_ops with .enable_device() and
     .disable_device() hooks so drivers that use pci_host_common_probe()
     instead of their own .probe() have a way to set the
     .enable_device() callbacks (Marc Zyngier)

   - Drop 'No bus range found' message so we don't complain when DTs
     don't specify the default 'bus-range = <0x00 0xff>' (Bjorn Helgaas)

   - Rename the drivers/pci/of_property.c struct of_pci_range to
     of_pci_range_entry to avoid confusion with the global of_pci_range
     in include/linux/of_address.h (Bjorn Helgaas)

  Driver binding:

   - Update resource request API documentation to encourage callers to
     supply a driver name when requesting resources (Philipp Stanner)

   - Export pci_intx_unmanaged() and pcim_intx() (always managed) so
     callers of pci_intx() (which is sometimes managed) can explicitly
     choose the one they need (Philipp Stanner)

   - Convert drivers from pci_intx() to always-managed pcim_intx() or
     never-managed pci_intx_unmanaged(): amd_sfh, ata (ahci, ata_piix,
     pata_rdc, sata_sil24, sata_sis, sata_uli, sata_vsc), bnx2x, bna,
     ntb, qtnfmac, rtsx, tifm_7xx1, vfio, xen-pciback (Philipp Stanner)

   - Remove pci_intx_unmanaged() since pci_intx() is now always
     unmanaged and pcim_intx() is always managed (Philipp Stanner)

  Error handling:

   - Unexport pcie_read_tlp_log() to encourage drivers to use PCI core
     logging rather than building their own (Ilpo Järvinen)

   - Move TLP Log handling to its own file (Ilpo Järvinen)

   - Store number of supported End-End TLP Prefixes always so we can
     read the correct number of DWORDs from the TLP Prefix Log (Ilpo
     Järvinen)

   - Read TLP Prefixes in addition to the Header Log in
     pcie_read_tlp_log() (Ilpo Järvinen)

   - Add pcie_print_tlp_log() to consolidate printing of TLP Header and
     Prefix Log (Ilpo Järvinen)

   - Quirk the Intel Raptor Lake-P PIO log size to accommodate vendor
     BIOSes that don't configure it correctly (Takashi Iwai)

  ASPM:

   - Save parent L1 PM Substates config so when we restore it along with
     an endpoint's config, the parent info isn't junk (Jian-Hong Pan)

  Power management:

   - Avoid D3 for Root Ports on TUXEDO Sirius Gen1 with old BIOS because
     the system can't wake up from suspend (Werner Sembach)

  Endpoint framework:

   - Destroy the EPC device in devm_pci_epc_destroy(), which previously
     didn't call devres_release() (Zijun Hu)

   - Finish virtual EP removal in pci_epf_remove_vepf(), which
     previously caused a subsequent pci_epf_add_vepf() to fail with
     -EBUSY (Zijun Hu)

   - Write BAR_MASK before iATU registers in pci_epc_set_bar() so we
     don't depend on the BAR_MASK reset value being larger than the
     requested BAR size (Niklas Cassel)

   - Prevent changing BAR size/flags in pci_epc_set_bar() to prevent
     reads from bypassing the iATU if we reduced the BAR size (Niklas
     Cassel)

   - Verify address alignment when programming iATU so we don't attempt
     to write bits that are read-only because of the BAR size, which
     could lead to directing accesses to the wrong address (Niklas
     Cassel)

   - Implement artpec6 pci_epc_features so we can rely on all drivers
     supporting it so we can use it in EPC core code (Niklas Cassel)

   - Check for BARs of fixed size to prevent endpoint drivers from
     trying to change their size (Niklas Cassel)

   - Verify that requested BAR size is a power of two when endpoint
     driver sets the BAR (Niklas Cassel)

  Endpoint framework tests:

   - Clear pci-epf-test dma_chan_rx, not dma_chan_tx, after freeing
     dma_chan_rx (Mohamed Khalfella)

   - Correct the DMA MEMCPY test so it doesn't fail if the Endpoint
     supports both DMA_PRIVATE and DMA_MEMCPY (Manivannan Sadhasivam)

   - Add pci-epf-test and pci_endpoint_test support for capabilities
     (Niklas Cassel)

   - Add Endpoint test for consecutive BARs (Niklas Cassel)

   - Remove redundant comparison from Endpoint BAR test because a > 1MB
     BAR can always be exactly covered by iterating with a 1MB buffer
     (Hans Zhang)

   - Move and convert PCI Endpoint tests from tools/pci to Kselftests
     (Manivannan Sadhasivam)

  Apple PCIe controller driver:

   - Convert StreamID mapping configuration from a bus notifier to the
     .enable_device() and .disable_device() callbacks (Marc Zyngier)

  Freescale i.MX6 PCIe controller driver:

   - Add Requester ID to StreamID mapping configuration when enabling
     devices (Frank Li)

   - Use DWC core suspend/resume functions for imx6 (Frank Li)

   - Add suspend/resume support for i.MX8MQ, i.MX8Q, and i.MX95 (Richard
     Zhu)

   - Add DT compatible string 'fsl,imx8q-pcie-ep' and driver support for
     i.MX8Q series (i.MX8QM, i.MX8QXP, and i.MX8DXL) Endpoints (Frank
     Li)

   - Add DT binding for optional i.MX95 Refclk and driver support to
     enable it if the platform hasn't enabled it (Richard Zhu)

   - Configure PHY based on controller being in Root Complex or Endpoint
     mode (Frank Li)

   - Rely on dbi2 and iATU base addresses from DT via
     dw_pcie_get_resources() instead of hardcoding them (Richard Zhu)

   - Deassert apps_reset in imx_pcie_deassert_core_reset() since it is
     asserted in imx_pcie_assert_core_reset() (Richard Zhu)

   - Add missing reference clock enable or disable logic for IMX6SX,
     IMX7D, IMX8MM (Richard Zhu)

   - Remove redundant imx7d_pcie_init_phy() since
     imx7d_pcie_enable_ref_clk() does the same thing (Richard Zhu)

  Freescale Layerscape PCIe controller driver:

   - Simplify by using syscon_regmap_lookup_by_phandle_args() instead
     of syscon_regmap_lookup_by_phandle() followed by
     of_property_read_u32_array() (Krzysztof Kozlowski)

  Marvell MVEBU PCIe controller driver:

   - Add MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() to enable module autoloading (Liao Chen)

  MediaTek PCIe Gen3 controller driver:

   - Use clk_bulk_prepare_enable() instead of separate
     clk_bulk_prepare() and clk_bulk_enable() (Lorenzo Bianconi)

   - Rearrange reset assert/deassert so they're both done in the
     *_power_up() callbacks (Lorenzo Bianconi)

   - Document that Airoha EN7581 requires PHY init and power-on before
     PHY reset deassert, unlike other MediaTek Gen3 controllers (Lorenzo
     Bianconi)

   - Move Airoha EN7581 post-reset delay from the en7581 clock .enable()
     method to mtk_pcie_en7581_power_up() (Lorenzo Bianconi)

   - Sleep instead of delay during Airoha EN7581 power-up, since this is
     a non-atomic context (Lorenzo Bianconi)

   - Skip PERST# assertion on Airoha EN7581 during probe and
     suspend/resume to avoid a hardware defect (Lorenzo Bianconi)

   - Enable async probe to reduce system startup time (Douglas Anderson)

  Microchip PolarFlare PCIe controller driver:

   - Set up the inbound address translation based on whether the
     platform allows coherent or non-coherent DMA (Daire McNamara)

   - Update DT binding such that platforms are DMA-coherent by default
     and must specify 'dma-noncoherent' if needed (Conor Dooley)

  Mobiveil PCIe controller driver:

   - Convert mobiveil-pcie.txt to YAML and update 'interrupt-names'
     and 'reg-names' (Frank Li)

  Qualcomm PCIe controller driver:

   - Add DT SM8550 and SM8650 optional 'global' interrupt for link
     events (Neil Armstrong)

   - Add DT 'compatible' strings for IPQ5424 PCIe controller (Manikanta
     Mylavarapu)

   - If 'global' IRQ is supported for detection of Link Up events, tell
     DWC core not to wait for link up (Krishna chaitanya chundru)

  Renesas R-Car PCIe controller driver:

   - Avoid passing stack buffer as resource name (King Dix)

  Rockchip PCIe controller driver:

   - Simplify clock and reset handling by using bulk interfaces (Anand
     Moon)

   - Pass typed rockchip_pcie (not void) pointer to
     rockchip_pcie_disable_clocks() (Anand Moon)

   - Return -ENOMEM, not success, when pci_epc_mem_alloc_addr() fails
     (Dan Carpenter)

  Rockchip DesignWare PCIe controller driver:

   - Use dll_link_up IRQ to detect Link Up and enumerate devices so
     users don't have to manually rescan (Niklas Cassel)

   - Tell DWC core not to wait for link up since the 'sys' interrupt is
     required and detects Link Up events (Niklas Cassel)

  Synopsys DesignWare PCIe controller driver:

   - Don't wait for link up in DWC core if driver can detect Link Up
     event (Krishna chaitanya chundru)

   - Update ICC and OPP votes after Link Up events (Krishna chaitanya
     chundru)

   - Always stop link in dw_pcie_suspend_noirq(), which is required at
     least for i.MX8QM to re-establish link on resume (Richard Zhu)

   - Drop racy and unnecessary LTSSM state check before sending
     PME_TURN_OFF message in dw_pcie_suspend_noirq() (Richard Zhu)

   - Add struct of_pci_range.parent_bus_addr for devices that need their
     immediate parent bus address, not the CPU address, e.g., to program
     an internal Address Translation Unit (iATU) (Frank Li)

  TI DRA7xx PCIe controller driver:

   - Simplify by using syscon_regmap_lookup_by_phandle_args() instead of
     syscon_regmap_lookup_by_phandle() followed by
     of_parse_phandle_with_fixed_args() or of_property_read_u32_index()
     (Krzysztof Kozlowski)

  Xilinx Versal CPM PCIe controller driver:

   - Add DT binding and driver support for Xilinx Versal CPM5
     (Thippeswamy Havalige)

  MicroSemi Switchtec management driver:

   - Add Microchip PCI100X device IDs (Rakesh Babu Saladi)

  Miscellaneous:

   - Move reset related sysfs code from pci.c to pci-sysfs.c where other
     similar code lives (Ilpo Järvinen)

   - Simplify reset_method_store() memory management by using __free()
     instead of explicit kfree() cleanup (Ilpo Järvinen)

   - Constify struct bin_attribute for sysfs, VPD, P2PDMA, and the IBM
     ACPI hotplug driver (Thomas Weißschuh)

   - Remove redundant PCI_VSEC_HDR and PCI_VSEC_HDR_LEN_SHIFT (Dongdong

7685b334d1 perf-tools changes for v6.14
There are a lot of changes in the perf tools in this cycle.
 
 build
 -----
 * Use generic syscall table to generate syscall numbers on supported archs.
 * This also enables to get rid of libaudit which was used for syscall numbers.
 * Remove python2 support as it's deprecated for years.
 * Fix issues on static build with libzstd.
 
 perf record
 -----------
 * Intel-PT supports "aux-action" config term to pause or resume tracing in
   the aux-buffer.  Users can start the intel_pt event as "started-paused" and
   configure other events to control the Intel-PT tracing.
 
     # perf record --kcore -e intel_pt/aux-action=start-paused/   \
         -e syscalls:sys_enter_newuname/aux-action=resume/        \
         -e syscalls:sys_exit_newuname/aux-action=pause/ -- uname
 
   This requires the kernel support (which was added in v6.13).
 
 perf lock
 ---------
 * 'perf lock contention' command has an ability to symbolize locks in
   dynamically allocated objects using slab cache name when it runs with BPF.
   Those dynamic locks would have "&" prefix in the name to distinguish them
   from ordinary (static) locks.
 
     # perf lock con -abl -E 5 sleep 1
        contended   total wait     max wait     avg wait            address   symbol
 
                2      1.95 us      1.77 us       975 ns   ffff9d5e852d3498   &task_struct (mutex)
                1      1.18 us      1.18 us      1.18 us   ffff9d5e852d3538   &task_struct (mutex)
                4      1.12 us       354 ns       279 ns   ffff9d5e841ca800   &kmalloc-cg-512 (mutex)
                2       859 ns       617 ns       429 ns   ffffffffa41c3620   delayed_uprobe_lock (mutex)
                3       691 ns       388 ns       230 ns   ffffffffa41c0940   pack_mutex (mutex)
 
   This also requires the kernel/BPF support (which was added in v6.13).
 
 perf ftrace
 -----------
 * 'perf ftrace latency' command gets a couple of options to support linear
   buckets instead of exponential.  Also it's possible to specify max and
   min latency for the linear buckets.
 
     # perf ftrace latency -abn -T switch_mm_irqs_off --bucket-range=100   \
         --min-latency=200 --max-latency=800 -- sleep 1
     #   DURATION     |      COUNT | GRAPH                                  |
          0 -  200 ns |        186 | ###                                    |
        200 -  300 ns |        256 | #####                                  |
        300 -  400 ns |        364 | #######                                |
        400 -  500 ns |        223 | ####                                   |
        500 -  600 ns |        111 | ##                                     |
        600 -  700 ns |         41 |                                        |
        700 -  800 ns |        141 | ##                                     |
        800 -  ... ns |        169 | ###                                    |
 
     # statistics  (in nsec)
       total time:              2162212
         avg time:                  967
         max time:                16817
         min time:                  132
            count:                 2236
 
 * As you can see in the above example, it nows shows the statistics at the
   end so that users can see the avg/max/min latencies easily.
 
 * 'perf ftrace profile' command has --graph-opts option like 'perf ftrace
   trace' so that it can control the tracing behaviors in the same way.
   For example, it can limit the function call depth or threshold.
 
 perf script
 -----------
 * Improve physical memory resolution in 'mem-phys-addr' script by parsing
   /proc/iomem file.
 
     # perf script mem-phys-addr -- find /
     ...
     Event: mem_inst_retired.all_loads:P
     Memory type                                    count  percentage
     ----------------------------------------  ----------  ----------
     100000000-85f7fffff : System RAM                8929        69.7
       547600000-54785d23f : Kernel data             1240         9.7
       546a00000-5474bdfff : Kernel rodata            490         3.8
       5480ce000-5485fffff : Kernel bss               121         0.9
     0-fff : Reserved                                3860        30.1
     100000-89c01fff : System RAM                      18         0.1
     8a22c000-8df6efff : System RAM                     5         0.0
 
 Others
 ------
 * 'perf test' gets --runs-per-test option to run the test cases repeatedly.
   This would be helpful to see if it's flaky.
 
 * Add 'parse_events' method to Python perf extension module, so that users
   can use the same event parsing logic in the python code.  One more step
   towards implementing perf tools in Python. :)
 
 * Support opening tracepoint events without libtraceevent.  This will be
   helpful if it won't use the tracing data like in 'perf stat'.
 
 * Update ARM Neoverse N2/V2 JSON events and metrics

Linus Torvalds
e8744fbc83 tracing updates for v6.14:
- Cleanup with guard() and free() helpers
 
   There were several places in the code that had a lot of "goto out" in the
   error paths to either unlock a lock or free some memory that was
   allocated. But this is error prone. Convert the code over to use the
   guard() and free() helpers that let the compiler unlock locks or free
   memory when the function exits.
 
 - Update the Rust tracepoint code to use the C code too
 
   There was some duplication of the tracepoint code for Rust that did the
   same logic as the C code. Add a helper that makes it possible for both
   algorithms to use the same logic in one place.
 
 - Add poll to trace event hist files
 
   It is useful to know when an event is triggered, or even with some
   filtering. Since hist files of events get updated when active and the
   event is triggered, allow applications to poll the hist file and wake up
   when an event is triggered. This will let the application know that the
   event it is waiting for happened.
 
 - Add :mod: command to enable events for current or future modules
 
   The function tracer already has a way to enable functions to be traced in
   modules by writing ":mod:<module>" into set_ftrace_filter. That will
   enable either all the functions for the module if it is loaded, or if it
   is not, it will cache that command, and when the module is loaded that
   matches <module>, its functions will be enabled. This also allows init
   functions to be traced. But currently events do not have that feature.
 
   Add the command where if ':mod:<module>' is written into set_event, then
   either all the modules events are enabled if it is loaded, or cache it so
   that the module's events are enabled when it is loaded. This also works
   from the kernel command line, where "trace_event=:mod:<module>", when the
   module is loaded at boot up, its events will be enabled then.

   That will enable either all the functions for the module if it is
   loaded, or if it is not, it will cache that command, and when the
   module is loaded that matches <module>, its functions will be
   enabled. This also allows init functions to be traced. But currently
   events do not have that feature.

   Add the command where if ':mod:<module>' is written into set_event,
   then either all the modules events are enabled if it is loaded, or
   cache it so that the module's events are enabled when it is loaded.
   This also works from the kernel command line, where
   "trace_event=:mod:<module>", when the module is loaded at boot up,
   its events will be enabled then.

b388face5f Documentation: Fix pci=config_acs= example
The documentation currently says:

  config_acs=
                  Format:
                  <ACS flags>@<pci_dev>[; ...]
                  Specify one or more PCI devices (in the format
                  specified above) optionally prepended with flags
                  and separated by semicolons. The respective
                  capabilities will be enabled, disabled or
                  unchanged based on what is specified in
                  flags.
           (...)
                  For example,
                    pci=config_acs=10x
                  would configure all devices that support
                  ACS to enable P2P Request Redirect, disable
                  Translation Blocking, and leave Source
                  Validation unchanged from whatever power-up
                  or firmware set it to.

See the complete documentation at:

  https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.html

However, a flag specification always needs to be suffixed with "@" and
a PCI valid device address, which is missing in this example. Also, to
configure all devices that support ACS, the flag needs to be suffixed
with "@pci:0:0", for the ACS support to be enabled.

Fix the documentation so the example is correct.

b355247df1 tracing: Cache ":mod:" events for modules not loaded yet
When the :mod: command is written into /sys/kernel/tracing/set_event (or
that file within an instance), if the module specified after the ":mod:"
is not yet loaded, it will store that string internally. When the module
is loaded, it will enable the events as if the module was loaded when the
string was written into the set_event file.

This can also be useful to enable events that are in the init section of
the module, as the events are enabled before the init section is executed.

This also works on the kernel command line:

 trace_event=:mod:<module>

Will enable the events for <module> when it is loaded.

67c8b11bd5 mm: add per-order mTHP swap-in fallback/fallback_charge counters
Currently, large folio swap-in is supported, but we lack a method to
analyze their success ratio.  Similar to anon_fault_fallback, we introduce
per-order mTHP swpin_fallback and swpin_fallback_charge counters for
calculating their success ratio.  The new counters are located at:

/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/hugepages-<size>/stats/
	swpin_fallback
	swpin_fallback_charge

d635ccdb43 mm: shmem: add a kernel command line to change the default huge policy for tmpfs
Now the tmpfs can allow to allocate any sized large folios, and the default
huge policy is still preferred to be 'never'. Due to tmpfs not behaving like
other file systems in some cases as previously explained by David[1]:

: I think I raised this in the past, but tmpfs/shmem is just like any
: other file system .. except it sometimes really isn't and behaves much
: more like (swappable) anonymous memory. (or mlocked files)
: 
: There are many systems out there that run without swap enabled, or with
: extremely minimal swap (IIRC until recently kubernetes was completely
: incompatible with swapping). Swap can even be disabled today for shmem
: using a mount option.
: 
: That's a big difference to all other file systems where you are
: guaranteed to have backend storage where you can simply evict under
: memory pressure (might temporarily fail, of course).
: 
: I *think* that's the reason why we have the "huge=" parameter that also
: controls the THP allocations during page faults (IOW possible memory
: over-allocation). Maybe also because it was a new feature, and we only
: had a single THP size.

Thus adding a new command line to change the default huge policy will be
helpful to use the large folios for tmpfs, which is similar to the
'transparent_hugepage_shmem' cmdline for shmem.

At the bottom of the bug-hunting.rst file there is a "signature" which

was from an earlier bug report that got copied into the document, but
now makes no sense so remove it.

3cc550f5bb perf tools: Remove dependency on libaudit
All architectures now support HAVE_SYSCALL_TABLE_SUPPORT, so the flag is
no longer needed. With the removal of the flag, the related
GENERIC_SYSCALL_TABLE can also be removed.

libaudit was only used as a fallback for when HAVE_SYSCALL_TABLE_SUPPORT
was not defined, so libaudit is also no longer needed for any
architecture.

kernel/cgroup: Add "dmem" memory accounting cgroup
This code is based on the RDMA and misc cgroup initially, but now
uses page_counter. It uses the same min/low/max semantics as the memory
cgroup as a result.

There's a small mismatch as TTM uses u64, and page_counter long pages.
In practice it's not a problem. 32-bits systems don't really come with
>=4GB cards and as long as we're consistently wrong with units, it's
fine. The device page size may not be in the same units as kernel page
size, and each region might also have a different page size (VRAM vs GART
for example).

The interface is simple:
- Call dmem_cgroup_register_region()
- Use dmem_cgroup_try_charge to check if you can allocate a chunk of memory,
  use dmem_cgroup__uncharge when freeing it. This may return an error code,
  or -EAGAIN when the cgroup limit is reached. In that case a reference
  to the limiting pool is returned.
- The limiting cs can be used as compare function for
  dmem_cgroup_state_evict_valuable.
- After having evicted enough, drop reference to limiting cs with
  dmem_cgroup_pool_state_put.

This API allows you to limit device resources with cgroups.
You can see the supported cards in /sys/fs/cgroup/dmem.capacity
You need to echo +dmem to cgroup.subtree_control, and then you can
partition device memory.

282e06cc8f rcutorture: Add parameters to control polled/conditional wait interval
This commit adds rcutorture module parameters gp_cond_wi, gp_cond_wi_exp,
gp_poll_wi, and gp_poll_wi_exp to control the wait interval for
conditional, conditional expedited, polled, and polled expedited grace
periods, respectively.  When rcu_torture_writer() is testing these types
of grace periods, hrtimers are used to randomly wait up to the specified
number of microseconds, but with nanosecond granularity.

In the case of conditional grace periods (get_state_synchronize_rcu()
and cond_synchronize_rcu(), for example) there is just one
wait.  For polled grace periods (start_poll_synchronize_rcu() and
poll_state_synchronize_rcu(), for example), there is a repeated series
of waits until the grace period ends.

For normal grace periods, the default is 16 jiffies (for example, 16,000
microseconds on a HZ=1000 system) and for expedited grace periods the
default is 128 microseconds.

module parameter, which gives the interval between successive preemptions,
also in milliseconds, defaulting to one second.  The CPU to preempt is
chosen at random from those online at that time.  Races between preempting
a given CPU and that CPU going offline are ignored, and preemption is

50a062a762 cpufreq/amd-pstate: Store the boost numerator as highest perf again
commit ad4caad58d ("cpufreq: amd-pstate: Merge
amd_pstate_highest_perf_set() into amd_get_boost_ratio_numerator()")
changed the semantics for highest perf and commit 18d9b52271
("cpufreq/amd-pstate: Use nominal perf for limits when boost is disabled")
worked around those semantic changes.

This however is a confusing result and furthermore makes it awkward to
change frequency limits and boost due to the scaling differences. Restore
the boost numerator to highest perf again.

3b051bb7cb drivers/perf: hisi: Export associated CPUs of each PMU through sysfs
Although the event of the uncore PMU can only be opened on a single
CPU, some PMU does have the affinity on a range of CPUs. For example
the L3C PMU is associated to the CPUs sharing the L3T it monitors.
Users may infer this affinity by the PMU name which may have SCCL ID
and CCL ID encoded (for L3C etc), but it's not that straightforward.
So export this information by adding an "associated_cpus" sysfs
attribute then user can get this directly.

5fcccba118 perf/marvell: Odyssey LLC-TAD performance monitor support
Each TAD provides eight 64-bit counters for monitoring
cache behavior.The driver always configures the same counter for
all the TADs. The user would end up effectively reserving one of
eight counters in every TAD to look across all TADs.
The occurrences of events are aggregated and presented to the user
at the end of running the workload. The driver does not provide a
way for the user to partition TADs so that different TADs are used for
different applications.

The performance events reflect various internal or interface activities.
By combining the values from multiple performance counters, cache
performance can be measured in terms such as: cache miss rate, cache
allocations, interface retry rate, internal resource occupancy, etc.

Each supported counter's event and formatting information is exposed
to sysfs at /sys/devices/tad/. Use perf tool stat command to measure
the pmu events. For instance:

perf stat -e tad_hit_ltg,tad_hit_dtg <workload>

Odyssey DRAM Subsystem supports eight counters for monitoring performance
and software can program those counters to monitor any of the defined
performance events. Supported performance events include those counted
at the interface between the DDR controller and the PHY, interface between
the DDR Controller and the CHI interconnect, or within the DDR Controller.

Additionally DSS also supports two fixed performance event counters, one
for ddr reads and the other for ddr writes.

Some NVIDIA PMUs like the NVLINK-C2C, CNVLINK, and PCIE PMU provide
port filtering. If the port filter is set to zero, the counter of
these PMUs will not capture any event. To avoid meaningless
experiment, the driver sets the port filter value to a default
non-zero value.

The "isolcpus=nohz" boot parameter and flag were used to disable tick
when running a single task.  Nowsdays, this "nohz" flag is seldomly used
as it is included as part of the "nohz_full" parameter.  Extend this
flag to cover other kernel noises disabled by the "nohz_full" parameter
to make them equivalent. This also eliminates the need to use both the
"isolcpus" and the "nohz_full" parameters to fully isolated a given
set of CPUs.
