Merge tag 'integrity-v7.2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/zohar/linux-integrity

Pull IMA updates from Mimi Zohar:

 - Introduce IMA and EVM post-quantum ML-DSA signature support

   ML-DSA signature support for IMA and EVM is limited to sigv3
   signatures, which calculates and verifies a hash of a compact
   structure containing the file data/metadata hash, hash type, and hash
   algorithm. IMA and EVM still calculate the file data/metadata hashes
   respectively.

 - Introduce support for removing IMA measurement list records stored in
   kernel memory

   The IMA measurement list can grow large depending on policy, but
   removing records breaks remote attestation, unless they are safely
   preserved and made available for attestation requests. Until
   environments are prepared to preserve the measurement records, a new
   CONFIG_IMA_STAGING Kconfig option is introduced to guard against
   deletion.

   Several approaches for removing measurement list records were
   evaluated but rejected due to filesystem constraints, the
   introduction of a new critical data record, and locking concerns. Two
   methods are being upstreamed: staged deletion with confirmation, and
   staged deletion of N records without confirmation. Both methods
   minimize the period during which new measurements are blocked from
   being appended to the measurement list by staging the measurement
   list.

   A comparison of the two methods is included in the documentation.

 - Some code cleanup, and a couple of bug fixes

 Patchsets in this merge:
 
 - The 2 patch series "selftests/mm: clean up build output and verbosity"
   from Li Wang removes some noise from the MM selftests build out.
 
 - The 3 patch series "mm: Free contiguous order-0 pages efficiently"
   from Ryan Roberts speeds up the freeing of a batch of 0-order pages by
   first scanning them for coalescing opportunities.  This is applicable to
   vfree() and to the releasing of frozen pages.
 
 - The 11 patch series "mm/damon: introduce DAMOS failed region quota
   charge ratio" from SeongJae Park addresses a DAMOS usability issue: The
   DAMOS quota often exhausts prematurely because it charges for all memory
   attempted, causing slow and inconsistent performance when actions fail
   on unreclaimable memory.
 
   To fix this, a new feature lets users set a smaller, flexible quota
   charge ratio (via a numerator and denominator) for failed regions.
   Since failed actions cause less overhead, reducing their quota cost
   ensures more predictable and efficient DAMOS processing
 
 - The 8 patch series "selftests/cgroup: improve zswap tests robustness
   and support large page sizes" from Li Wang fixes various spurious
   failures and improves the overall robustness of the cgroup zswap
   selftests.
 
 - The 3 patch series "fix MAP_DROPPABLE not supported errno" from
   Anthony Yznaga fixes an issue in the mlock selftests on arm32.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm: huge_memory: clean up defrag sysfs with
   shared" from Breno Leitao does some maintenance work in the huge_memory
   code.
 
 - The 3 patch series "treewide: fixup gfp_t printks" from Brendan
   Jackman uses the special vprintf() gfp_t conversion in various places.
 
 - The 6 patch series "mm: Fix vmemmap optimization accounting and
   initialization" from Muchun Song fixes several bugs in the vmemmap
   optimization, mainly around incorrect page accounting and memmap
   initialization in the DAX and memory hotplug paths.  It also fixes
   pageblock migratetype initialization and struct page initialization for
   ZONE_DEVICE compound pages.
 
 - The 4 patch series "mm/damon: repost non-hotfix reviewed patches in
   damon/next tree" from is a sprinkle of unrelated minor bugfixes for
   DAMON.
 
 - The 3 patch series "mm: remove page_mapped()" from David Hildenbrand
   remove this function from the tree, replacing it with folio_mapped().
 
 - The 10 patch series "mm/damon: let DAMON be paused and resumed" from
   SeongJae Park permits DAMON to be paused and resumed without losing its
   current state.
 
 - The 3 patch series "kasan: hw_tags: Disable tagging for stack and
   page-tables" from Muhammad Usama Anjum simplifies and speeds up kasan by
   removing its ineffective tagging of stacks and page tables.
 
 - The 7 patch series "mm/damon/reclaim,lru_sort: monitor all system rams
   by default" from SeongJae Park simplifies deployment on diverse hardware
   like NUMA systems by updating DAMON_RECLAIM and DAMON_LRU_SORT to
   automatically monitor the physical address range covering all System RAM
   areas by default, replacing the overly restrictive behavior that only
   targeted the single largest memory block to save on negligible overhead.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/damon/sysfs: document filters/ directory as
   deprecated" from SeongJae Park updates some DAMON docs.
 
 - The 8 patch series "mm: use spinlock guards for zone lock" from Dmitry
   Ilvokhin switches zone->lock handling over to using the guard()
   mechanisms.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/filemap: tighten mmap_miss hit accounting" from
   fujunjie fixes a flaw where the mmap_miss counter over-credited page
   cache hits during fault-arounds and page-fault retries.  This results in
   significant reduction of redundant synchronous mmap readahead I/O,
   drastically cutting down execution time and gigabytes read for sparse
   random or strided memory access workloads.
 
 - The 2 patch series "selftests/cgroup: Fix false positive failures in
   test_percpu_basic" from Li Wang fixes a couple of false-positives in the
   cgroup kmem selftests.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/damon/reclaim: support monitoring intervals
   auto-tuning" from SeongJae Park adds a new parameter to DAMON permitting
   DAMON_RECLAIM to automatically tune DAMON's sampling and aggregation
   intervals.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/damon/stat: add kdamond_pid parameter" from
   SeongJae Park chnges DAMON_STAT to provide the pid of its kdamond.

   Breno Leitao removes large amounts of duplicated backtraces from the
   verbose-mode kmemleak output.
 
 - The 8 patch series "mm: remove CONFIG_HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE (Part 1)"
   from David Hildenbrand reduces our use of CONFIG_HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE,
   with a view to removing it entirely in a later series.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/damon: validate min_region_size to be power of
   2" from Liew Rui Yan prevents users from passing a non-power-of-2 value
   of `addr_unit', as this later results in undesirable behavior.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm: document read_pages and simplify usage" from
   Frederick Mayle does as claimed.
 
 - The 3 patch series "tools/mm/page-types: Fix misc bugs" from Ye Liu
   fixes three issues in tools/mm/page-types.c.
 
 - The 4 patch series "mm: misc cleanups from __GFP_UNMAPPED series" from
   Brendan Jackman implements several cleanups in the page allocator and
   related code.
 
 - The 12 patch series "mm, swap: swap table phase IV: unify allocation"
   from Kairui Song unifies the allocation and charging of anon and shmem
   swap in folios, provides better synchronization, consolidates the
   metadata management, hence dropping the static array and map, and
   improves performance.
 
 - The 28 patch series "mm/damon: introduce data attributes monitoring"
   from SeongJae Park extends DAMON for monitoring general data attributes
   other than accesses.
 
 - The 5 patch series "mm/vmalloc: free unused pages on vrealloc()
   shrink" from Shivam Kalra implements the TODO in vrealloc() to unmap and
   free unused pages when shrinking across a page boundary.
 
 - The 3 patch series "mm/damon: documentation and comment fixes" from
   niecheng does as advertised.
 
 - The 3 patch series "remove mmap_action success, error hooks" from
   Lorenzo Stoakes eliminates custom hooks from mmap_action by removing the
   problematic success_hook which allowed drivers to improperly access
   uninitialized VMAs.  It replaces the error_hook with a simple error-code
   field and updates the memory char driver accordingly.
 
 - The 14 patch series "mm/damon: minor improvements for code readability
   and tests" from SeongJae Park implements minor improvements in code
   readability and tests for DAMON.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/damon: fix macro arguments and clarify quota
   goals doc" from Maksym Shcherba does those things.
 
 - The 2 patch series "userfaultfd: merge fs/userfaultfd.c into
   mm/userfaultfd.c" from Mike Rapoport performs that code movement.
 
 - The 15 patch series "mm/mglru: improve reclaim loop and dirty folio"
   from Kairui Song and others cleans up and slightly improves MGLRU's
   reclaim loop and dirty writeback handling.  Large performance
   improvements are measured.
 
 - The 3 patch series "use vma locks for proc/pid/{smaps|numa_maps}
   reads" from Suren Baghdasaryan uses per-vma locks when reading
   /proc/pid/smaps and /proc/pid/numa_maps similar to reduce contention on
   central mmap_lock.
 
 - The 2 patch series "refactors thpsize_shmem_enabled_store() and
   thpsize_shmem_enabled_show()" from Ran Xiaokai provides some cleanup
   work in the THP code.
 
 - The 2 patch series "selftests/memfd: fix compilation warnings" from
   Konstantin Khorenko fixes a few build glitches in the memfd selftest
   code.
 
 - The 4 patch series "memcg: shrink obj_stock_pcp and cache multiple
   objcgs" from Shakeel Butt resolves a 68% performance regression caused
   by NUMA-node cache thrashing around struct obj_stock_pcp by shrinking
   its existing fields and expanding it into a multi-slot array that caches
   up to five obj_cgroup pointers per CPU, allowing per-node variants of
   the same memcg to coexist within a single 64-byte cache line.
 
 - The 2 patch series "zram: writeback fixes" from Sergey Senozhatsky
   addresses a couple of unrelated zram writeback issues.
 
 - The 9 patch series "mm: switch THP shrinker to list_lru" from Johannes
   Weiner resolves NUMA-awareness issues and streamlines callsite
   interaction by refactoring and extending the list_lru API to completely
   replace the complex, open-coded deferred split queue for Transparent
   Huge Pages (THPs).
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm: improve large folio readahead for exec memory"
   from Usama Arif improves large-folio readahead on systems like 64K-page
   arm64 by preventing the mmap_miss check from permanently disabling
   target-oriented VM_EXEC readahead, and by generalizing the
   force_thp_readahead gate to support mappings with any usefully large
   maximum folio order under the cache cap.
 
 - The 6 patch series "userfaultfd/pagemap: pre-existing fixes" from
   Kiryl Shutsemau fixes a bunch of minor issues in the
   userfaultfd/pagemap, all of which were flagged by Sashiko review of
   proposed new material.
 
 - The 5 patch series "mm/sparse-vmemmap: Provide generic
   vmemmap_set_pmd() and vmemmap_check_pmd()" from Muchun Song provides
   generic versions of these two functions so the four arch-specific
   implementations can be removed.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/swap, PM: hibernate: fix swapoff race in
   uswsusp by pinning swap device" from Youngjun Park addresses a
   uswsusp-vs-swapoff race and reduces the swap device reference
   taking/releasing frequency.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/hmm: A fix and a selftest" from Dev Jain does
   as claimed.

83476cc97b cgroup: Changes for v7.2
- Last cycle deferred css teardown on cgroup removal until the cgroup
   depopulated, so a css is not taken offline while tasks can still
   reference it. Disabling a controller through cgroup.subtree_control
   still had the same problem. This reworks the deferral from per-cgroup
   to per-css so that path is covered too.
 
 - New RDMA controller monitoring files: rdma.peak for per-device peak
   usage and rdma.events / rdma.events.local for resource-limit
   exhaustion. The max-limit parser was rewritten, fixing two input
   parsing bugs.
 
 - cpuset: fix a sched-domain leak on the domain-rebuild failure path and
   skip a redundant hardwall ancestor scan on v2.
 
 - Misc: pair the remaining lockless cgroup.max.* reads with WRITE_ONCE,
   assorted selftest robustness fixes, and doc path corrections.

b85966adbf Networking changes for 7.2.
Core & protocols
 ----------------
 
  - Work on removing rtnl_lock protection throughout the stack continues.
    In this chapter:
     - don't use rtnl_lock for IPv6 multicast routing configuration
     - don't take rtnl_lock in ethtool for modern drivers
     - prepare Qdisc dump callbacks for rtnl_lock removal
 
  - Support dumping just ifindex + name of all interfaces, under RCU.
    It's a common operation for Netlink CLI tools (when translating
    names to ifindexes) and previously required full rtnl_lock.
 
  - Support dumping qdiscs and page pools for a specific netdev. Even tho
    user space wants a dump of all netdevs, most of the time, the OOO
    programming model results in repeating the dump for each netdev.
    Which, in absence of a cache, leads to a O(n^2) behavior.
 
  - Flush nexthops once on multi-nexthop removal (e.g. when device goes
    down), another O(n^2) -> O(n) improvement.
 
  - Rehash locally generated traffic to a different nexthop on retransmit
    timeout.
 
  - Honor oif when choosing nexthop for locally generated IPv6 traffic.
 
  - Convert TCP Auth Option to crypto library, and drop non-RFC algos.
 
  - Increase subflow limits in MPTCP to 64 and endpoint limit to 256.
 
  - Support MPTCP signaling of IPv6 address + port (ADD_ADDR). We need
    to selectively skip reporting of the standard TCP Timestamp option,
    because they won't fit into the header space together (12 + 30 > 40).
 
  - Support using bridge neighbor suppression, Duplicate Address
    Detection, Gratuitous ARP and unsolicited NA forwarding - in EVPN
    deployments, e.g. VXLAN fabrics (IPv4 and IPv6).
 
  - Improve link state reporting for upper netdevs (e.g. macvlan) over
    tunnel devices (again, mostly for EVPN deployments).
 
  - Support binding GENEVE tunnels to a local address.
 
  - Speed up UDP tunnel destruction (remove one synchronize_rcu()).
 
  - Support exponential field encoding in multicast (IGMPv3 and MLDv2).
 
  - Support attaching PSP crypto offload to containers (veth, netkit).
 
  - Add a new IPSec Netlink message XFRM_MSG_MIGRATE_STATE that allows
    migrating individual IPsec SAs independently of their policies.
    The existing XFRM_MSG_MIGRATE is tightly coupled to policy+SA
    migration, lacks SPI for unique SA identification, and cannot express
    reqid changes or migrate Transport mode selectors. The new interface
    identifies the SA via SPI and mark, supports reqid changes, address
    family changes, encap removal, and uses an atomic create+install
    flow under x->lock to prevent SN/IV reuse during AEAD SA migration.
 
  - Implement GRO/GSO support for PPPoE.
 
  - Convert sockopt callbacks in a number of protocols to iov_iter.
 
 Cross-tree stuff
 ----------------
 
  - Remove support for Crypto TFM cloning (unblocked after the TCP Auth
    Option rework). This feature regressed performance for all crypto API
    users, since it changed crypto transformation objects into reference-
    -counted objects.
 
  - Add FCrypt-PCBC implementation to rxrpc and remove it from the global
    crypto API as obsolete and insecure.
 
 Wireless
 --------
 
  - Major rework of station bandwidth handling, fixing issues with lower
    capability than AP.
 
  - Cleanups for EMLSR spec issues (drafts differed).
 
  - More Neighbor Awareness Networking (Wi-Fi Aware) work (multicast,
    schedule improvements, multi-station etc.)
 
  - Some Ultra High Reliability (UHR) / IEEE 802.11bn (D1.4) work
    (e.g. non-primary channel access, UHR DBE support).
 
  - Fine Timing Measurement ranging (i.e. distance measurement) APIs.
 
 Netfilter
 ---------
 
  - Use per-rule hash initval in nf_conncount. This avoids unnecessary
    lock contention with short keys (e.g. conntrack zones) in different
    namespaces.
 
  - Various safety improvements, both in packet parsing and object
    lifetimes. Notably add refcounts to conntrack timeout policy.
 
 Deletions
 ---------
 
  - Remove TLS + sockmap integration. TLS wants to pin user pages
    to avoid a copy, and sockmap wants to write to the input stream.
    More work on this integration is clearly needed, and we can't find
    any users (original author admitted that they never deployed it).
 
  - Remove support for TLS offload with TCP Offload Engine (the far
    more common opportunistic offload is retained). The locking looks
    unfixable (driver sleeps under TCP spin locks) and people from
    the vendor that added this are AWOL.
 
  - Remove more ATM code, trying to leave behind only what PPPoATM needs,
    AAL5 and br2684 with permanent circuits.
 
  - Remove AppleTalk. Let it join hamradio in our out of tree protocol
    graveyard, I mean, repository.
 
  - Disable 32-bit x_tables compatibility (32bit binaries on 64bit kernel)
    interface in user namespaces. To be deleted completely, soon.
 
  - Remove 5/10 MHz support from cfg80211/mac80211.

 -------
 
  - Software:

8a398a0c18 appletalk: move the protocol out of tree
AppleTalk has been removed in MacOS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard), in 2009,
according to Wikipedia. We recently got a burst of AI generated
fixes to this protocol which nobody is reviewing.

Let AppleTalk follow AX.25 and hamradio out of the Linux tree.
We we will maintain the code at: github.com/linux-netdev/mod-orphan
for anyone interested in playing with it.

Retain the uAPI for now. No strong reason, simply because I suspect
keeping it will be less controversial.

4d05e948ce KEYS: trusted: Debugging as a feature
TPM_DEBUG, and other similar flags, are a non-standard way to specify a
feature in Linux kernel. Introduce CONFIG_TRUSTED_KEYS_DEBUG for trusted
keys, and use it to replace these ad-hoc feature flags.

Given that trusted keys debug dumps can contain sensitive data, harden the
feature as follows:

1. In the Kconfig description postulate that pr_debug() statements must be
   used.
2. Use pr_debug() statements in TPM 1.x driver to print the protocol dump.
3. Require trusted.debug=1 on the kernel command line (default: 0) to
   activate dumps at runtime, even when CONFIG_TRUSTED_KEYS_DEBUG=y.

Traces, when actually needed, can be easily enabled by providing
trusted.dyndbg='+p' and trusted.debug=1 in the kernel command-line.

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "SMP load-balancing updates:

   - A large series to introduce infrastructure for cache-aware load
     balancing, with the goal of co-locating tasks that share data
     within the same Last Level Cache (LLC) domain. By improving cache
     locality, the scheduler can reduce cache bouncing and cache misses,
     ultimately improving data access efficiency.

     Implemented by Chen Yu and Tim Chen, based on early prototype work
     by Peter Zijlstra, with fixes by Jianyong Wu, Peter Zijlstra and
     Shrikanth Hegde.

   - A series to simplify CONFIG_SCHED_SMT ifdef usage (Shrikanth Hegde)

  Fair scheduler updates:

   - A series to improve SD_ASYM_CPUCAPACITY scheduling by introducing
     SMT awareness (Andrea Righi, K Prateek Nayak)

   - A series to optimize cfs_rq and sched_entity allocation for better
     data locality (Zecheng Li)

   - A preparatory series to change fair/cgroup scheduling to a single
     runqueue, without the final change (Peter Zijlstra)

   - Auto-manage ext/fair dl_server bandwidth (Andrea Righi)

   - Fix cpu_util runnable_avg arithmetic (Hongyan Xia)

   - Optimize update_tg_load_avg()'s rate-limiting code (Rik van Riel)

   - Allow account_cfs_rq_runtime() to throttle current hierarchy
     (K Prateek Nayak)

   - Update util_est after updating util_avg during dequeue, to fix the
     util signal update logic, which reduces signal noise (Vincent
     Guittot)

  Scheduler topology updates:

   - Allow multiple domains to claim sched_domain_shared (K Prateek
     Nayak)

   - Add parameter to split LLC (Peter Zijlstra)

  Core scheduler updates:

   - Use trace_call__<tp>() to save a static branch (Gabriele Monaco)

  Scheduler statistics updates:

   - Drop now-stale mul_u64_u64_div_u64() cputime over-approximation
     guard (Nicolas Pitre)

  Deadline scheduler updates:

   - Reject debugfs dl_server writes for offline CPUs (Andrea Righi)

   - Fix replenishment logic for non-deferred servers (Yuri Andriaccio)

  RT scheduling updates:

   - Turn RT_PUSH_IPI default off for non PREEMPT_RT (Steven Rostedt)

   - Update default bandwidth for real-time tasks to 1.0 (Yuri
     Andriaccio)

  Proxy scheduling updates:

   - A series to implement Optimized Donor Migration for Proxy Execution
     (John Stultz, Peter Zijlstra)

   - Various proxy scheduling cleanups and fixes (Peter Zijlstra,
     K Prateek Nayak)

36808d5e98 Driver core changes for 7.2-rc1
- deferred probe:
   - Fix race where deferred probe timeout work could be permanently
     canceled by using mod_delayed_work()
   - Fix missing jiffies conversion in deferred_probe_extend_timeout()
   - Guard timeout extension with delayed_work_pending() to prevent
     premature firing
   - Use system_percpu_wq instead of the deprecated system_wq
   - Update deferred_probe_timeout documentation
 
 - device:
   - Replace direct struct device bitfield access (can_match, dma_iommu,
     dma_skip_sync, dma_ops_bypass, state_synced, dma_coherent,
     of_node_reused, offline, offline_disabled) with flag-based
     accessors using bit operations
   - Reject devices with unregistered buses
   - Delete unused DEVICE_ATTR_PREALLOC()
   - Add low-level device attribute macros with const show/store
     callbacks, allowing device attributes to reside in read-only memory
   - Move core device attributes to read-only memory
   - Constify group array pointers in driver_add_groups() /
     driver_remove_groups(), struct bus_type, and struct device_driver
 
 - device property:
   - Fix fwnode reference leak in fwnode_graph_get_endpoint_by_id()
   - Initialize all fields of fwnode_handle in fwnode_init()
   - Provide swnode_get()/swnode_put() wrappers around kobject_get/put()
   - Allow passing struct software_node_ref_args pointers directly to
     PROPERTY_ENTRY_REF()
 
 - driver_override:
   - Migrate amba, cdx, vmbus, and rpmsg to the generic driver_override
     infrastructure, fixing a UAF from unsynchronized access to
     driver_override in bus match() callbacks
   - Remove the now-unused driver_set_override()
 
 - firmware loader:
   - Fix recursive lock deadlock in device_cache_fw_images() when async
     work falls back to synchronous execution
   - Fix device reference leak in firmware_upload_register()
 
 - platform:
   - Pass KBUILD_MODNAME through the platform driver registration macro
     to create module symlinks in sysfs for built-in drivers; move
     module_kset initialization to a pure_initcall and tegra cbb
     registration to core_initcall to ensure correct ordering
   - Pass THIS_MODULE implicitly through a coresight_init_driver() macro
 
 - sysfs:
   - Upgrade OOB write detection in sysfs_kf_seq_show() from printk to
     WARN
   - Add return value clamping to sysfs_kf_read()
 
 - Rust:
   - ACPI:
     - Fix missing match data for PRP0001 by exporting
       acpi_of_match_device()
 
   - Auxiliary:
     - Replace drvdata() with dedicated registration data on
       auxiliary_device. drvdata() exposed the driver's bus device
       private data beyond the driver's own scope, creating ordering
       constraints and forcing the data to outlive all registrations
       that access it. Registration data is instead scoped structurally
       to the Registration object, making lifecycle ordering enforced
       by construction rather than convention.
 
   - Rust-native device driver lifetimes (HRT):
     - Allow Rust device drivers to carry a lifetime parameter on their
       bus device private data, tied to the device binding scope -- the
       interval during which a bus device is bound to a driver. Device
       resources like pci::Bar<'a> and IoMem<'a> can be stored directly
       in the driver's bus device private data with a lifetime bounded
       by the binding scope, so the compiler enforces at build time that
       they do not outlive the binding. This removes Devres indirection
       from every access site and eliminates try_access() failure paths
       in destructors.
 
       Bus driver traits use a Generic Associated Type (GAT)
       Data<'bound> to introduce the lifetime on the private data,
       rather than parameterizing the Driver trait itself. Auxiliary
       registration data, where the lifetime is not introduced by a
       trait callback but must be threaded through Registration, uses
       the ForLt trait (a type-level abstraction for types generic over
       a lifetime).
 
 - Misc:
   - Fix DT overlayed devices not probing by reverting the broken
     treewide overlay fix and re-running fw_devlink consumer pickup when
     an overlay is applied to a bound device
   - Use root_device_register() for faux bus root device; add sanity
     check for failed bus init
   - Fix dev_has_sync_state() data race with READ_ONCE() and move it to
     base.h
   - Avoid spurious device_links warning when removing a device while
     its supplier is unbinding
   - Switch ISA bus to dynamic root device
   - Fix suspicious RCU usage in kernfs_put()
   - Remove devcoredump exit callback
   - Constify devfreq_event_class

landlock: Add API support and docs for the quiet flags
Adds the UAPI for the quiet flags feature (but not the implementation
yet).

Even though currently LANDLOCK_ADD_RULE_QUIET only affects audit
logging, in the future this can also be used as part of a supervisor
mechanism, where it will also suppress denial notifications on a
per-object basis.  Thus the name is deliberately generic, as opposed to
e.g. LANDLOCK_ADD_RULE_LOG_QUIET.

According to pahole, even after adding the struct access_masks
quiet_masks in struct landlock_hierarchy, the u32 log_* bitfield still
only has a size of 2 bytes, so there's minimal wasted space.

c26d9d9246 ima: Add support for flushing the hash table when staging measurements
During staging and delete, measurements are not completely deallocated.
Their entry digest portion is kept and is still reachable with the hash
table to detect duplicate records. If the number of records is significant,
this reduces the memory saving benefit of staging.

Some users might be interested in achieving the best memory saving (the
measurements are completely deallocated) at the cost of having duplicate
records across the staged measurement lists. Duplicate records are still
avoided within the current measurement list.

Introduce the new kernel option ima_flush_htable to decide whether or not
the digests of staged measurement records are flushed from the hash table,
when they are deleted, to achieve the maximum memory saving.

When the option is enabled, replace the old hash table with a new one,
by calling ima_alloc_replace_htable(), and completely delete the
measurements records.

Note: This code derives from the Alt-IMA Huawei project, whose license is
      GPL-2.0 OR MIT.

0e06a884f5 nfs: remove nfs_compat_user_ino64() and deprecate enable_ino64
Now that inode->i_ino stores the full 64-bit NFS fileid, the
nfs_compat_user_ino64() function is no longer needed.
generic_fillattr() already copies inode->i_ino into stat->ino, so the
explicit override in nfs_getattr() is also redundant.

Also remove the now-unused nfs_fileid_to_ino_t() and
nfs_fattr_to_ino_t() helper functions that were used to XOR-fold
64-bit fileids into the old unsigned long i_ino.

Keep the enable_ino64 module parameter as a deprecated stub that
accepts but ignores the value, logging a notice when set. This avoids
breaking existing configurations that pass nfs.enable_ino64 on the
kernel command line or in modprobe.d.

03120e1425 cpufreq: Documentation: fix conservative governor freq_step description
The conservative governor documentation incorrectly states that setting
freq_step to 0 will use the default 5% frequency step. In reality, since
at least commit 8e677ce83b ("[CPUFREQ] conservative: fixup governor to
function more like ondemand logic"), freq_step=0 has always caused the
governor to skip frequency updates entirely.

Correct the documentation to reflect the actual behavior: freq_step=0
disables frequency changes by the governor entirely.

640c57d6ca cgroup/dmem: introduce a peak file
Just like we have memory.peak, introduce a dmem.peak, which uses the
page_counter support for that.

For now, make it read-only.

This allows for memory usage monitoring without polling dmem.current when
the information needed is the maximum device memory used. That can be used
for capacity planning, such that dmem.max can be properly setup for a given
workload. It can also be used for debugging to determine whether a given
workload would have caused eviction or system memory use.

fb95c50921 mm/hugetlb_cma: restrict hugetlb_cma parameter to gigantic-page alignment
Existing hugetlb_cma parameter handling logic rejects sizes smaller than
one gigantic page, but rounds up larger sizes that are not a multiple of
it.  The two behaviors are inconsistent and neither is documented.

To remove existing inconsistent and undefined behavior, restrict
hugetlb_cma parameter to only accept multiples of the gigantic page size.

After this restriction, the redundant round_up() in the allocation loop
can be removed.

The new restriction is also documented in kernel-parameters.txt.

Also, including other minor changes for readability improvement with no
functional change.

5c48ecedf7 docs/dyndbg: explain flags parse 1st
When writing queries to >control, flags are parsed 1st, since they are
the only required field, and they require specific compositions.  So
if the flags draw an error (on those specifics), then keyword errors
aren't reported.  This can be mildly confusing/annoying, so explain it
instead.

Add that iommu=pt is equivalent to iommu.passthrough=1
and that iommu=nopt is equivalent to iommu.passthrough=0.

Move the PPC/POWERNV heading & its option "nobypass" to a separate
area since the current "iommu=" applies only to X86 (according to
its heading).

Unindent the AMD GART IOMMU options heading to make it stand out.
Also add its kconfig symbol name to be explicit about what these
options apply to.

Make sure that the IOMMU options that are listed under AMD Gart
HW IOMMU-specific options are only for that product; i.e., add "force"
there and move "merge", "nomerge", and "panic" to the general IOMMU

7e6cc9f954 Docs/admin-guide/mm/damon/usage: mark scheme filters sysfs dir as deprecated
Patch series "mm/damon/sysfs: document filters/ directory as deprecated".

Commit ab71d2d301 ("mm/damon/sysfs-schemes: let
damon_sysfs_scheme_set_filters() be used for different named directories")
introduced alternatives of 'filters' directory, namely core_filters/ and
'ops_filters/ directories.  Now the alternatives are well stabilized and
ready for all users.  All filters/ directory use cases are expected to be
able to be migrated to the alternatives.  An LTS kernel having the
alternatives, namely 6.18.y, is also released.  Existence of filters/
directory is only confusing.

It would be better not immediately removing the directory, though.  There
could be users that need time before migrating to the alternatives.  There
might be unexpected use cases that the alternatives cannot support.  Doing
the deprecation step by step across multiple years like DAMON debugfs
deprecation would be safer.  Start the deprecation changes by announcing
the deprecation on the documents.

Every year, one more action for completely removing the directory will be
followed, like DAMON debugfs deprecation did.  Following yearly actions
are currently expected.  In 2027, deprecation warning kernel messages will
be printed once, for use of filters/ directory.  In 2028, filters/
directory will be renamed to filters_DEPRECATED/.  In 2029,
filters_DEPRECATED/ directory will be removed.


This patch (of 2):

The alternatives of 'filters/' directory, namely 'core_filters/' and
'ops_filters/', can fully support all the features 'filters/' directory
can do, and provide better user experience.  Having 'filters/' directory
is only confusing to users.  Announce it as deprecated on the usage
document.

d5cae2261b dma-contiguous: simplify numa cma area handling
Currently, there are 2 kernel cmdline ways to setup numa cma area:
"cma_pernuma=" and "numa_cma=", and there are 2 cma arrays as well,
while they have no difference technically. Robin suggested to cleanup
the code and only use one array [1], as "the apparent intent that
users only want one _or_ the other".

Simplify the code by only using one array to save the numa cma area.
And in rare case that a user really setup the 2 cmdline parameters
at the same time,  let the per-node specific size setting 'numa_cma='
take priority over the global numa cma setting.

80501dff81 Documentation/arch/x86: Hide clearcpuid=
This option was never meant to be used in production because it solely
clears the X86_FEATURE kernel-internal representation of what CPUID bits
it has detected and doesn't do any *proper* feature disablement like
clearing CR4.CET in the user shadow stack case, for example.

So remove its documentation so that it doesn't get used in production
and people get silly ideas. It is meant strictly for debugging; and if
a chicken bit for properly disabling a feature is warranted, then that
would need proper enablement.

No functional changes.

f9f57971da dm-inlinecrypt: add support for hardware-wrapped keys
Add support for hardware-wrapped encryption keys to the
dm-inlinecrypt target.

Introduce a new optional argument <key_type> to indicate
whether the provided key is a raw key or a hardware-wrapped
key. Based on this flag, the appropriate blk-crypto key type
is selected when initializing the key.

This allows dm-inlinecrypt to work with hardware that requires
keys to be wrapped and managed by the underlying inline
encryption engine.

Update the target argument parsing accordingly and pass the
key type to blk_crypto_init_key(). Documentation is also
updated to reflect the new parameter and usage.

eceb659752 rcu: Latch normal synchronize_rcu() path on flood
Currently, rcu_normal_wake_from_gp is only enabled by default
on small systems(<= 16 CPUs) or when a user explicitly set it
enabled.

Introduce an adaptive latching mechanism:
 * Track the number of in-flight synchronize_rcu() requests
   using a new rcu_sr_normal_count counter;

 * If the count reaches/exceeds RCU_SR_NORMAL_LATCH_THR(64),
   it sets the rcu_sr_normal_latched, reverting new requests
   onto the scaled wait_rcu_gp() path;

 * The latch is cleared only when the pending requests are fully
   drained(nr == 0);

 * Enables rcu_normal_wake_from_gp by default for all systems,
   relying on this dynamic throttling instead of static CPU
   limits.

Testing(synthetic flood workload):
  * Kernel version: 6.19.0-rc6
  * Number of CPUs: 1536
  * 60K concurrent synchronize_rcu() calls

Perf(cycles, system-wide):
  total cycles: 932020263832
  rcu_sr_normal_add_req(): 2650282811 cycles(~0.28%)

Perf report excerpt:
  0.01%  0.01%  sync_test/...  [k] rcu_sr_normal_add_req

Measured overhead of rcu_sr_normal_add_req() remained ~0.28%
of total CPU cycles in this synthetic stress test.

05cb9529a4 char: applicom: remove low-quality, unused driver
The applicom driver supports PCI Profibus cards from Applicom, later
acquired by Molex. It has severe coding style issues and has attracted
a number of bug and security fixes over the years, despite the fact
that no one appears to be using it. It was broken from at least the
beginning of Git history (Linux 2.6.12-rc2 in April 2005) until October
2008, when a fatal bug was fixed in commit bc20589bf1 ("applicom.c:
fix apparently-broken code in do_ac_read()"). In the commit message,
the author commented that no one they knew was able to test the change.
Since then, there have been no commits that indicate the driver is
being used. Later PCI and PCI-Express Applicom Profibus cards only
officially support Windows [1], and even the PCI-Express cards have
been discontinued [2]. Given all these factors, remove the driver to
reduce future maintenance workload.

910394c74c net: arcnet: remove ISA and PCMCIA support; modernize documentation
While ARCnet is still used in industrial environments, and cards are
still manufactured, it is unlikely anyone is still using it with ISA
and PCMCIA cards. Reduce future maintenance burden by removing all ISA
and PCMCIA ARCnet drivers and documentation related to them. Update
instructions for loading modules and passing parameters to work on
modern kernels and with the com20020_pci driver. Also take the
opportunity to document the rest of the module parameters, correct a
file path in Documentation/networking/arcnet.rst, and change a
reference to /etc/rc.inet1, which no longer exists, to refer to
ifconfig.

e38b27199e console: mdacon: remove this obsolete driver
The mdacon driver supports using ISA MDA or Hercules-compatible display
adapters as a secondary text console. This was commonly used in the
1990s and earlier for debugging software which took over the primary
display. It is highly unlikely anyone is doing so nowadays because
serial consoles and much better methods of debugging exist.

The driver is not enabled by any defconfig, nor any of the
dozens of distro configs collected at [1]. It has been relegated to VTs
13-16 since commit 0b9cf3aa6b ("mdacon messing up default vc's - set
default to vc13-16 again") in Linux 2.6.27 (and before Linux 2.5.53 -
see the link in the message of the above commit). The change in 2.6.27
was done because it was incorrectly detecting non-MDA adapters as MDA
and taking over all VTs, rendering them unusable.

Furthermore, vgacon supports using MDA/Hercules-compatible adapters as
the primary text console, so any systems with only one of these
adapters were already using vgacon and will not experience any loss in
functionality from the removal of this driver.

Given all of these factors, the mdacon driver is likely entirely
unused. Remove it.

e4e9b7b38d cpufreq/amd-pstate: Drop Kconfig option for dynamic EPP
There are some performance issues being identified by dynamic EPP
and we don't want to have distributions turning it on by default
exposing them to users at this time.

Drop the kconfig option, and require an explicit opt in from kernel
command line or runtime sysfs option to turn it on.

ee047fc7a2 Documentation: intel_pstate: Fix description of asymmetric packing with SMT
Patchset [1], including commits

 046a5a95c3 ("x86/sched/itmt: Give all SMT siblings of a core the same priority")
 995998ebde ("x86/sched: Remove SD_ASYM_PACKING from the SMT domain flags")

overhauled asym_packing handling in the scheduler on x86 hybrid
processors with SMT. It removed SD_ASYM_PACKING from the x86 SMT
scheduling domain and made all SMT siblings of a core share the same
priority. As a result, asym_packing operates only across physical
cores, spreading tasks among them and only using idle SMT siblings
once all physical cores are busy.

Fix the documentation to reflect this behavior.

platform/x86/intel-uncore-freq: Expose instance ID in the sysfs
Insufficient data is exported to allow direct access to TPMI registers
through MMIO. On non-partitioned systems domain_id can be used both for
mapping CPUs to their compute die IDs and for mapping die indices to
their MMIO memory blocks presented to userspace via TPMI debugfs.
However on partitioned systems the debugfs association doesn't work
anymore. This is due to how TPMI partitioning influences domain_id
calculation. The previous association is lost on partitioned systems in
order to keep using domain_id for mapping CPUs to compute dies.

Expose the instance ID in sysfs that's unique in the scope of one TPMI
partition (and hence one TPMI device). It's a physical index into mapped
MMIO blocks and can be used by userspace to figure out how to directly
access TPMI registers.

11f00074f7 cgroup: Fixes for v7.1-rc2
- During v6.19, cgroup task unlink was moved from do_exit() to after the

   seeing tasks past exit_signals() longer than userspace expected, and
   several v7.0 follow-ups tried to bridge the gap by making rmdir wait for
   the kernel side. None held up. The latest is an A-A deadlock when rmdir
   is invoked by the reaper of zombies whose pidns teardown the rmdir itself
   is waiting on, which points at the synchronizing approach being

   - Take a different approach: drop the wait, leave rmdir's user-visible
     side returning as soon as cgroup.procs is empty, and defer the css
     percpu_ref kill that drives ->css_offline() until the cgroup is fully

   - Tagged for stable. Somewhat invasive but contained. The hope is that

75ff0feaa2 Documentation/kernel-parameters: Remove "Deprecated" from isolcpus=
The isolcpus= option has been marked as deprecated in 2017. Back then it
was desired for the domain sub option to be configured dynamically at
runtime instead using this boot command line which provides a static
configuration. In the meantime this option was extended by other sub
options which don't have runtime counterpart or it does not make sense
to provide one.

The deprecated part always referred to the default `domain' sub option
but it was not obvious. Also the reasoning behind the deprecation is
sort of dubious: There is nothing wrong with a static configuration if
there is no desired to reconfigure. This is useful on systems which
have one purpose and the CPU partition configuration is not changed for
the entire lifetime.

Remove the "Deprecated" note. Remove the part of the description which
suggest to use cpuset.sched_load_balance and instead point to the
documentation file which explains how to use cpusets to configure this
at runtime.

4fe18ddd17 ne2k: fold drivers/net/Space.c into ne.c
drivers/net/Space.c is the last remnant of the linux-2.4.x driver model
that required each subsystem and device driver init function to be called
from init/main.c explicitly, before the introduction of initcall levels.

In linux-7.0, this was only used for a handful of ISA network drivers,
with the ne2000 driver being the last one.

Fold the code into ne.c directly, with minimal changes to preserve
the existing command line parsing.

 We've talked about these deletions multiple times in the past
 and every time someone wanted the code to stay. It is never
 very clear to me how many of those people actually use the code
 vs are just nostalgic to see it go. Amateur radio did have
 occasional users (or so I think) but most users switched
 to user space implementations since its all super slow stuff.
 Nobody stepped up to maintain the kernel code.
 
 We were lucky enough to find someone who wants to help with NFC
 so we're giving that a chance. Let's try to put the rest of
 this code behind us.

dd8d4bc28a net: remove ax25 and amateur radio (hamradio) subsystem
Remove the amateur radio (AX.25, NET/ROM, ROSE) protocol implementation
and all associated hamradio device drivers from the kernel tree.
This set of protocols has long been a huge bug/syzbot magnet,
and since nobody stepped up to help us deal with the influx
of the AI-generated bug reports we need to move it out of tree
to protect our sanity.

The code is moved to an out-of-tree repo:
https://github.com/linux-netdev/mod-orphan
if it's cleaned up and reworked there we can accept it back.

Minimal stub headers are kept for include/net/ax25.h (AX25_P_IP,
AX25_ADDR_LEN, ax25_address) and include/net/rose.h (ROSE_ADDR_LEN)
so that the conditional integration code in arp.c and tun.c continues
to compile and work when the out-of-tree modules are loaded.

36d179fd6b NFSD 7.1 Release Notes
Benjamin Coddington contributed filehandle signing to defend against
 filehandle-guessing attacks. The server now appends a SipHash-2-4
 MAC to each filehandle when the new "sign_fh" export option is
 enabled. NFSD then verifies filehandles received from clients
 against the expected MAC; mismatches return NFS error STALE.
 
 Chuck Lever converted the entire NLMv4 server-side XDR layer from
 hand-written C to xdrgen-generated code, spanning roughly thirty
 patches. XDR functions are generally boilerplate code and are easy
 to get wrong. The goals of this conversion are improved memory
 safety, lower maintenance burden, and groundwork for eventual Rust
 code generation for these functions.
 
 Dai Ngo improved pNFS block/SCSI layout robustness with two related
 changes. SCSI persistent reservation fencing is now tracked per
 client and per device via an xarray, to avoid both redundant preempt
 operations on devices already fenced and a potential NFSD deadlock
 when all nfsd threads are waiting for a layout return.
 
 The remaining patches deliver scalability and infrastructure
 improvements. Sincere thanks to all contributors, reviewers,
 testers, and bug reporters who participated in the v7.1 NFSD
 development cycle.

0c13ed77dd Docs/admin-guide/mm/damon/lru_sort: warn commit_inputs vs param updates race
DAMON_LRU_SORT handles commit_inputs request inside kdamond thread,
reading the module parameters.  If the user updates the module
parameters while the kdamond thread is reading those, races can happen.
To avoid this, the commit_inputs parameter shows whether it is still in
the progress, assuming users wouldn't update parameters in the middle of
the work.  Some users might ignore that.  Add a warning about the
behavior.

0beba407d4 Docs/admin-guide/mm/damon/reclaim: warn commit_inputs vs param updates race
Patch series "Docs/admin-guide/mm/damon: warn commit_inputs vs other
params race".

Writing 'Y' to the commit_inputs parameter of DAMON_RECLAIM and
DAMON_LRU_SORT, and writing other parameters before the commit_inputs
request is completely processed can cause race conditions.  While the
consequence can be bad, the documentation is not clearly describing that. 
Add clear warnings.

The issue was discovered [1,2] by sashiko.


This patch (of 2):

DAMON_RECLAIM handles commit_inputs request inside kdamond thread,
reading the module parameters.  If the user updates the module
parameters while the kdamond thread is reading those, races can happen.
To avoid this, the commit_inputs parameter shows whether it is still in
the progress, assuming users wouldn't update parameters in the middle of
the work.  Some users might ignore that.  Add a warning about the
behavior.

The issue was discovered in [1] by sashiko.

e524feaad5 kho: document kexec-metadata tracking feature
Add documentation for the kexec-metadata feature that tracks the previous
kernel version and kexec boot count across kexec reboots.  This helps
diagnose bugs that only reproduce when kexecing from specific kernel
versions.

4916ae3867 kho: rename fdt parameter to blob in kho_add/remove_subtree()
Since kho_add_subtree() now accepts arbitrary data blobs (not just FDTs),
rename the parameter from 'fdt' to 'blob' to better reflect its purpose. 
Apply the same rename to kho_remove_subtree() for consistency.

Also rename kho_debugfs_fdt_add() and kho_debugfs_fdt_remove() to
kho_debugfs_blob_add() and kho_debugfs_blob_remove() respectively, with
the same parameter rename from 'fdt' to 'blob'.

Linus Torvalds
01f492e181 Arm:
- Add support for tracing in the standalone EL2 hypervisor code, which
   should help both debugging and performance analysis.  This uses the
   new infrastructure for 'remote' trace buffers that can be exposed
   by non-kernel entities such as firmware, and which came through the
   tracing tree.
 
 - Add support for GICv5 Per Processor Interrupts (PPIs), as the starting
   point for supporting the new GIC architecture in KVM.
 
 - Finally add support for pKVM protected guests, where pages are unmapped
   from the host as they are faulted into the guest and can be shared back
   from the guest using pKVM hypercalls.  Protected guests are created
   using a new machine type identifier.  As the elusive guestmem has not
   yet delivered on its promises, anonymous memory is also supported.
 
   This is only a first step towards full isolation from the host; for
   example, the CPU register state and DMA accesses are not yet isolated.
   Because this does not really yet bring fully what it promises, it is
   hidden behind CONFIG_ARM_PKVM_GUEST + 'kvm-arm.mode=protected', and
   also triggers TAINT_USER when a VM is created.  Caveat emptor.
 
 - Rework the dreaded user_mem_abort() function to make it more
   maintainable, reducing the amount of state being exposed to the
   various helpers and rendering a substantial amount of state immutable.
 
 - Expand the Stage-2 page table dumper to support NV shadow page tables
   on a per-VM basis.
 
 - Tidy up the pKVM PSCI proxy code to be slightly less hard to follow.
 
 - Fix both SPE and TRBE in non-VHE configurations so that they do not
   generate spurious, out of context table walks that ultimately lead
   to very bad HW lockups.
 
 - A small set of patches fixing the Stage-2 MMU freeing in error cases.
 
 - Tighten-up accepted SMC immediate value to be only #0 for host
   SMCCC calls.
 
 - The usual cleanups and other selftest churn.
 
 LoongArch:
 
 - Use CSR_CRMD_PLV for kvm_arch_vcpu_in_kernel().
 
 - Add DMSINTC irqchip in kernel support.
 
 RISC-V:
 
 - Fix steal time shared memory alignment checks
 
 - Fix vector context allocation leak
 
 - Fix array out-of-bounds in pmu_ctr_read() and pmu_fw_ctr_read_hi()
 
 - Fix double-free of sdata in kvm_pmu_clear_snapshot_area()
 
 - Fix integer overflow in kvm_pmu_validate_counter_mask()
 
 - Fix shift-out-of-bounds in make_xfence_request()
 
 - Fix lost write protection on huge pages during dirty logging
 
 - Split huge pages during fault handling for dirty logging
 
 - Skip CSR restore if VCPU is reloaded on the same core
 
 - Implement kvm_arch_has_default_irqchip() for KVM selftests
 
 - Factored-out ISA checks into separate sources
 
 - Added hideleg to struct kvm_vcpu_config
 
 - Factored-out VCPU config into separate sources
 
 - Support configuration of per-VM HGATP mode from KVM user space
 
 s390:
 
 - Support for ESA (31-bit) guests inside nested hypervisors.
 
 - Remove restriction on memslot alignment, which is not needed anymore with
   the new gmap code.
 
 - Fix LPSW/E to update the bear (which of course is the breaking event
   address register).
 
 x86:
 
 - Shut up various UBSAN warnings on reading module parameter before they
   were initialized.
 
 - Don't zero-allocate page tables that are used for splitting hugepages in
   the TDP MMU, as KVM is guaranteed to set all SPTEs in the page table and
   thus write all bytes.
 
 - As an optimization, bail early when trying to unsync 4KiB mappings if the
   target gfn can just be mapped with a 2MiB hugepage.
 
 x86 generic:
 
 - Copy single-chunk MMIO write values into struct kvm_vcpu (more precisely
   struct kvm_mmio_fragment) to fix use-after-free stack bugs where KVM
   would dereference stack pointer after an exit to userspace.
 
 - Clean up and comment the emulated MMIO code to try to make it easier to
   maintain (not necessarily "easy", but "easier").
 
 - Move VMXON+VMXOFF and EFER.SVME toggling out of KVM (not *all* of VMX
   and SVM enabling) as it is needed for trusted I/O.
 
 - Advertise support for AVX512 Bit Matrix Multiply (BMM) instructions
 
 - Immediately fail the build if a required #define is missing in one of
   KVM's headers that is included multiple times.
 
 - Reject SET_GUEST_DEBUG with -EBUSY if there's an already injected
   exception, mostly to prevent syzkaller from abusing the uAPI to
   trigger WARNs, but also because it can help prevent userspace from
   unintentionally crashing the VM.
 
 - Exempt SMM from CPUID faulting on Intel, as per the spec.
 
 - Misc hardening and cleanup changes.
 
 x86 (AMD):
 
 - Fix and optimize IRQ window inhibit handling for AVIC; make it per-vCPU
   so that KVM doesn't prematurely re-enable AVIC if multiple
   vCPUs have to-be-injected IRQs.
 
 - Clean up and optimize the OSVW handling, avoiding a bug in which KVM would
   overwrite state when enabling virtualization on multiple CPUs in parallel.
   This should not be a problem because OSVW should usually be the same for
   all CPUs.
 
 - Drop a WARN in KVM_MEMORY_ENCRYPT_REG_REGION where KVM complains about a
   "too large" size based purely on user input.
 
 - Clean up and harden the pinning code for KVM_MEMORY_ENCRYPT_REG_REGION.
 
 - Disallow synchronizing a VMSA of an already-launched/encrypted vCPU, as
   doing so for an SNP guest will crash the host due to an RMP violation
   page fault.
 
 - Overhaul KVM's APIs for detecting SEV+ guests so that VM-scoped queries
   are required to hold kvm->lock, and enforce it by lockdep.  Fix various
   bugs where sev_guest() was not ensured to be stable for the whole
   duration of a function or ioctl.
 
 - Convert a pile of kvm->lock SEV code to guard().
 
 - Play nicer with userspace that does not enable KVM_CAP_EXCEPTION_PAYLOAD,
   for which KVM needs to set CR2 and DR6 as a response to ioctls such as
   KVM_GET_VCPU_EVENTS (even if the payload would end up in EXITINFO2
   rather than CR2, for example).  Only set CR2 and DR6 when consumption of
   the payload is imminent, but on the other hand force delivery of the
   payload in all paths where userspace retrieves CR2 or DR6.
 
 - Use vcpu->arch.cr2 when updating vmcb12's CR2 on nested #VMEXIT instead
   of vmcb02->save.cr2.  The value is out of sync after a save/restore
   or after a #PF is injected into L2.
 
 - Fix a class of nSVM bugs where some fields written by the CPU are not
   synchronized from vmcb02 to cached vmcb12 after VMRUN, and so are not
   up-to-date when saved by KVM_GET_NESTED_STATE.
 
 - Fix a class of bugs where the ordering between KVM_SET_NESTED_STATE and
   KVM_SET_{S}REGS could cause vmcb02 to be incorrectly initialized after
   save+restore.
 
 - Add a variety of missing nSVM consistency checks.
 
 - Fix several bugs where KVM failed to correctly update VMCB fields on
   nested #VMEXIT.
 
 - Fix several bugs where KVM failed to correctly synthesize #UD or #GP for
   SVM-related instructions.
 
 - Add support for save+restore of virtualized LBRs (on SVM).
 
 - Refactor various helpers and macros to improve clarity and (hopefully)
   make the code easier to maintain.
 
 - Aggressively sanitize fields when copying from vmcb12, to guard against
   unintentionally allowing L1 to utilize yet-to-be-defined features.
 
 - Fix several bugs where KVM botched rAX legality checks when emulating SVM
   instructions.  There are remaining issues in that KVM doesn't handle size
   prefix overrides for 64-bit guests.
 
 - Fail emulation of VMRUN/VMLOAD/VMSAVE if mapping vmcb12 fails instead of
   somewhat arbitrarily synthesizing #GP (i.e. don't double down on AMD's
   architectural but sketchy behavior of generating #GP for "unsupported"
   addresses).
 
 - Cache all used vmcb12 fields to further harden against TOCTOU bugs.
 
 x86 (Intel):
 
 - Drop obsolete branch hint prefixes from the VMX instruction macros.
 
 - Use ASM_INPUT_RM() in __vmcs_writel() to coerce clang into using a
   register input when appropriate.
 
 - Code cleanups.
 
 guest_memfd:
 
 - Don't mark guest_memfd folios as accessed, as guest_memfd doesn't support
   reclaim, the memory is unevictable, and there is no storage to write
   back to.
 
 LoongArch selftests:
 
 - Add KVM PMU test cases
 
 s390 selftests:
 
 - Enable more memory selftests.
 
 x86 selftests:
 
 - Add support for Hygon CPUs in KVM selftests.
 
 - Fix a bug in the MSR test where it would get false failures on AMD/Hygon
   CPUs with exactly one of RDPID or RDTSCP.
 
 - Add an MADV_COLLAPSE testcase for guest_memfd as a regression test for a
   bug where the kernel would attempt to collapse guest_memfd folios against
   KVM's will.

   from Junrui Luo does what is claims.
 
 - The 27 patch series "cleanup the RAID5 XOR library" from Christoph
   Hellwig is a quite far-reaching cleanup to this code.  I can't do better
   than to quote Christoph:
 
     The XOR library used for the RAID5 parity is a bit of a mess right
     now.  The main file sits in crypto/ despite not being cryptography and
     not using the crypto API, with the generic implementations sitting in
     include/asm-generic and the arch implementations sitting in an asm/
     header in theory.  The latter doesn't work for many cases, so
     architectures often build the code directly into the core kernel, or
     create another module for the architecture code.
 
     Change this to a single module in lib/ that also contains the
     architecture optimizations, similar to the library work Eric Biggers
     has done for the CRC and crypto libraries later.  After that it
     changes to better calling conventions that allow for smarter
     architecture implementations (although none is contained here yet),
     and uses static_call to avoid indirection function call overhead.
 
 - The 2 patch series "lib/list_sort: Clean up list_sort() scheduling
   workarounds" from Kuan-Wei Chiu cleans up this library code by removing
   a hacky thing which was added for UBIFS, which UBIFS doesn't actually
   need.
 
 - The 5 patch series "Fix bugs in extract_iter_to_sg()" from Christian
   Ehrhardt fixes a few bugs in the scatterlist code, adds in-kernel tests
   for the now-fixed bugs and fixes a leak in the test itself.
 
 - The 3 patch series "kdump: Enable LUKS-encrypted dump target support
   in ARM64 and PowerPC" from Coiby Xu eenables support of the
   LUKS-encrypted device dump target on arm64 and powerpc.
 
 - The 4 patch series "ocfs2: consolidate extent list validation into

91a4855d6c Networking changes for 7.1.
Core & protocols
 ----------------
 
  - Support HW queue leasing, allowing containers to be granted access
    to HW queues for zero-copy operations and AF_XDP.
 
  - Number of code moves to help the compiler with inlining.
    Avoid output arguments for returning drop reason where possible.
 
  - Rework drop handling within qdiscs to include more metadata
    about the reason and dropping qdisc in the tracepoints.
 
  - Remove the rtnl_lock use from IP Multicast Routing.
 
  - Pack size information into the Rx Flow Steering table pointer
    itself. This allows making the table itself a flat array of u32s,
    thus making the table allocation size a power of two.
 
  - Report TCP delayed ack timer information via socket diag.
 
  - Add ip_local_port_step_width sysctl to allow distributing the randomly
    selected ports more evenly throughout the allowed space.
 
  - Add support for per-route tunsrc in IPv6 segment routing.
 
  - Start work of switching sockopt handling to iov_iter.
 
  - Improve dynamic recvbuf sizing in MPTCP, limit burstiness and avoid
    buffer size drifting up.
 
  - Support MSG_EOR in MPTCP.
 
  - Add stp_mode attribute to the bridge driver for STP mode selection.
    This addresses concerns about call_usermodehelper() usage.
 
  - Remove UDP-Lite support (as announced in 2023).
 
  - Remove support for building IPv6 as a module.
    Remove the now unnecessary function calling indirection.
 
 Cross-tree stuff
 ----------------
 
  - Move Michael MIC code from generic crypto into wireless,
    it's considered insecure but some WiFi networks still need it.
 
 Netfilter
 ---------
 
  - Switch nft_fib_ipv6 module to no longer need temporary dst_entry
    object allocations by using fib6_lookup() + RCU.
    Florian W reports this gets us ~13% higher packet rate.
 
  - Convert IPVS's global __ip_vs_mutex to per-net service_mutex and
    switch the service tables to be per-net. Convert some code that
    walks the service lists to use RCU instead of the service_mutex.
 
  - Add more opinionated input validation to lower security exposure.
 
  - Make IPVS hash tables to be per-netns and resizable.
 
 Wireless
 --------
 
  - Finished assoc frame encryption/EPPKE/802.1X-over-auth.
 
  - Radar detection improvements.
 
  - Add 6 GHz incumbent signal detection APIs.
 
  - Multi-link support for FILS, probe response templates and
    client probing.
 
  - New APIs and mac80211 support for NAN (Neighbor Aware Networking,
    aka Wi-Fi Aware) so less work must be in firmware.
 
 Driver API
 ----------
 
  - Add numerical ID for devlink instances (to avoid having to create
    fake bus/device pairs just to have an ID). Support shared devlink
    instances which span multiple PFs.
 
  - Add standard counters for reporting pause storm events
    (implement in mlx5 and fbnic).
 
  - Add configuration API for completion writeback buffering
    (implement in mana).
 
  - Support driver-initiated change of RSS context sizes.
 
  - Support DPLL monitoring input frequency (implement in zl3073x).
 
  - Support per-port resources in devlink (implement in mlx5).
 
 Misc
 ----
 
  - Expand the YAML spec for Netfilter.

Linus Torvalds
c1fe867b5b Updates for the timer/timekeeping core:
- A rework of the hrtimer subsystem to reduce the overhead for frequently
     armed timers, especially the hrtick scheduler timer.
 
       - Better timer locality decision
 
       - Simplification of the evaluation of the first expiry time by
         keeping track of the neighbor timers in the RB-tree by providing a
         RB-tree variant with neighbor links. That avoids walking the
         RB-tree on removal to find the next expiry time, but even more
         important allows to quickly evaluate whether a timer which is
         rearmed changes the position in the RB-tree with the modified
         expiry time or not. If not, the dequeue/enqueue sequence which both
         can end up in rebalancing can be completely avoided.
 
       - Deferred reprogramming of the underlying clock event device. This
         optimizes for the situation where a hrtimer callback sets the need
         resched bit. In that case the code attempts to defer the
         re-programming of the clock event device up to the point where the
         scheduler has picked the next task and has the next hrtick timer
         armed. In case that there is no immediate reschedule or soft
         interrupts have to be handled before reaching the reschedule point
         in the interrupt entry code the clock event is reprogrammed in one
         of those code paths to prevent that the timer becomes stale.
 
       - Support for clocksource coupled clockevents
 
       	The TSC deadline timer is coupled to the TSC. The next event is
       	programmed in TSC time. Currently this is done by converting the
       	CLOCK_MONOTONIC based expiry value into a relative timeout,
       	converting it into TSC ticks, reading the TSC adding the delta
       	ticks and writing the deadline MSR.
 
 	As the timekeeping core has the conversion factors for the TSC
 	already, the whole back and forth conversion can be completely
 	avoided. The timekeeping core calculates the reverse conversion
 	factors from nanoseconds to TSC ticks and utilizes the base
 	timestamps of TSC and CLOCK_MONOTONIC which are updated once per
 	tick. This allows a direct conversion into the TSC deadline value
 	without reading the time and as a bonus keeps the deadline
 	conversion in sync with the TSC conversion factors, which are
 	updated by adjtimex() on systems with NTP/PTP enabled.
 
      - Allow inlining of the clocksource read and clockevent write
        functions when they are tiny enough, e.g. on x86 RDTSC and WRMSR.
 
     With all those enhancements in place a hrtick enabled scheduler
     provides the same performance as without hrtick. But also other hrtimer
     users obviously benefit from these optimizations.
 
   - Robustness improvements and cleanups of historical sins in the hrtimer
     and timekeeping code.
 
   - Rewrite of the clocksource watchdog.
 
     The clocksource watchdog code has over time reached the state of an
     impenetrable maze of duct tape and staples. The original design, which was
     made in the context of systems far smaller than today, is based on the
     assumption that the to be monitored clocksource (TSC) can be trivially
     compared against a known to be stable clocksource (HPET/ACPI-PM timer).
 
     Over the years this rather naive approach turned out to have major
     flaws. Long delays between the watchdog invocations can cause wrap
     arounds of the reference clocksource. The access to the reference
     clocksource degrades on large multi-sockets systems dure to
     interconnect congestion. This has been addressed with various
     heuristics which degraded the accuracy of the watchdog to the point
     that it fails to detect actual TSC problems on older hardware which
     exposes slow inter CPU drifts due to firmware manipulating the TSC to
     hide SMI time.
 
     The rewrite addresses this by:
 
       - Restricting the validation against the reference clocksource to the
         boot CPU which is usually closest to the legacy block which
         contains the reference clocksource (HPET/ACPI-PM).
 
       - Do a round robin validation betwen the boot CPU and the other CPUs
         based only on the TSC with an algorithm similar to the TSC
         synchronization code during CPU hotplug.
 
       - Being more leniant versus remote timeouts
 
   - The usual tiny fixes, cleanups and enhancements all over the place

Pull timer core updates from Thomas Gleixner:

 - A rework of the hrtimer subsystem to reduce the overhead for
   frequently armed timers, especially the hrtick scheduler timer:

     - Better timer locality decision

     - Simplification of the evaluation of the first expiry time by
       keeping track of the neighbor timers in the RB-tree by providing
       a RB-tree variant with neighbor links. That avoids walking the
       RB-tree on removal to find the next expiry time, but even more
       important allows to quickly evaluate whether a timer which is
       rearmed changes the position in the RB-tree with the modified
       expiry time or not. If not, the dequeue/enqueue sequence which
       both can end up in rebalancing can be completely avoided.

     - Deferred reprogramming of the underlying clock event device. This
       optimizes for the situation where a hrtimer callback sets the
       need resched bit. In that case the code attempts to defer the
       re-programming of the clock event device up to the point where
       the scheduler has picked the next task and has the next hrtick
       timer armed. In case that there is no immediate reschedule or
       soft interrupts have to be handled before reaching the reschedule
       point in the interrupt entry code the clock event is reprogrammed
       in one of those code paths to prevent that the timer becomes
       stale.

     - Support for clocksource coupled clockevents

       The TSC deadline timer is coupled to the TSC. The next event is
       programmed in TSC time. Currently this is done by converting the
       CLOCK_MONOTONIC based expiry value into a relative timeout,
       converting it into TSC ticks, reading the TSC adding the delta
       ticks and writing the deadline MSR.

       As the timekeeping core has the conversion factors for the TSC
       already, the whole back and forth conversion can be completely
       avoided. The timekeeping core calculates the reverse conversion
       factors from nanoseconds to TSC ticks and utilizes the base
       timestamps of TSC and CLOCK_MONOTONIC which are updated once per
       tick. This allows a direct conversion into the TSC deadline value
       without reading the time and as a bonus keeps the deadline
       conversion in sync with the TSC conversion factors, which are
       updated by adjtimex() on systems with NTP/PTP enabled.

     - Allow inlining of the clocksource read and clockevent write
       functions when they are tiny enough, e.g. on x86 RDTSC and WRMSR.

   With all those enhancements in place a hrtick enabled scheduler
   provides the same performance as without hrtick. But also other
   hrtimer users obviously benefit from these optimizations.

 - Robustness improvements and cleanups of historical sins in the
   hrtimer and timekeeping code.

 - Rewrite of the clocksource watchdog.

   The clocksource watchdog code has over time reached the state of an
   impenetrable maze of duct tape and staples. The original design,
   which was made in the context of systems far smaller than today, is
   based on the assumption that the to be monitored clocksource (TSC)
   can be trivially compared against a known to be stable clocksource
   (HPET/ACPI-PM timer).

   Over the years this rather naive approach turned out to have major
   flaws. Long delays between the watchdog invocations can cause wrap
   arounds of the reference clocksource. The access to the reference
   clocksource degrades on large multi-sockets systems dure to
   interconnect congestion. This has been addressed with various
   heuristics which degraded the accuracy of the watchdog to the point
   that it fails to detect actual TSC problems on older hardware which
   exposes slow inter CPU drifts due to firmware manipulating the TSC to
   hide SMI time.

   The rewrite addresses this by:

     - Restricting the validation against the reference clocksource to
       the boot CPU which is usually closest to the legacy block which
       contains the reference clocksource (HPET/ACPI-PM).

     - Do a round robin validation betwen the boot CPU and the other
       CPUs based only on the TSC with an algorithm similar to the TSC
       synchronization code during CPU hotplug.

     - Being more leniant versus remote timeouts

 - The usual tiny fixes, cleanups and enhancements all over the place

Pull ACPI support updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "These include an update of the CMOS RTC driver and the related ACPI
  and x86 code that, among other things, switches it over to using the
  platform device interface for device binding on x86 instead of the PNP
  device driver interface (which allows the code in question to be
  simplified quite a bit), a major update of the ACPI Time and Alarm
  Device (TAD) driver adding an RTC class device interface to it, and
  updates of core ACPI drivers that remove some unnecessary and not
  really useful code from them.

  Apart from that, two drivers are converted to using the platform
  driver interface for device binding instead of the ACPI driver one,
  which is slated for removal, support for the Performance Limited
  register is added to the ACPI CPPC library and there are some
  janitorial updates of it and the related cpufreq CPPC driver, the ACPI
  processor driver is fixed and cleaned up, and NVIDIA vendor CPER
  record handler is added to the APEI GHES code.

  Also, the interface for obtaining a CPU UID from ACPI is consolidated
  across architectures and used for fixing a problem with the PCI TPH
  Steering Tag on ARM64, there are two updates related to ACPICA, a
  minor ACPI OS Services Layer (OSL) update, and a few assorted updates
  related to ACPI tables parsing.

  Specifics:

   - Update maintainers information regarding ACPICA (Rafael Wysocki)

   - Replace strncpy() with strscpy_pad() in acpi_ut_safe_strncpy()
     (Kees Cook)

   - Trigger an ordered system power off after encountering a fatal
     error operator in AML (Armin Wolf)

   - Enable ACPI FPDT parsing on LoongArch (Xi Ruoyao)

   - Remove the temporary stop-gap acpi_pptt_cache_v1_full structure
     from the ACPI PPTT parser (Ben Horgan)

   - Add support for exposing ACPI FPDT subtables FBPT and S3PT (Nate
     DeSimone)

   - Address multiple assorted issues and clean up the code in the ACPI
     processor idle driver (Huisong Li)

   - Replace strlcat() in the ACPI processor idle drive with a better
     alternative (Andy Shevchenko)

   - Rearrange and clean up acpi_processor_errata_piix4() (Rafael
     Wysocki)

   - Move reference performance to capabilities and fix an uninitialized
     variable in the ACPI CPPC library (Pengjie Zhang)

   - Add support for the Performance Limited Register to the ACPI CPPC
     library (Sumit Gupta)

   - Add cppc_get_perf() API to read performance controls, extend
     cppc_set_epp_perf() for FFH/SystemMemory, and make the ACPI CPPC
     library warn on missing mandatory DESIRED_PERF register (Sumit
     Gupta)

   - Modify the cpufreq CPPC driver to update MIN_PERF/MAX_PERF in
     target callbacks to allow it to control performance bounds via
     standard scaling_min_freq and scaling_max_freq sysfs attributes and
     add sysfs documentation for the Performance Limited Register to it
     (Sumit Gupta)

   - Add ACPI support to the platform device interface in the CMOS RTC
     driver, make the ACPI core device enumeration code create a
     platform device for the CMOS RTC, and drop CMOS RTC PNP device
     support (Rafael Wysocki)

   - Consolidate the x86-specific CMOS RTC handling with the ACPI TAD
     driver and clean up the CMOS RTC ACPI address space handler (Rafael
     Wysocki)

   - Enable ACPI alarm in the CMOS RTC driver if advertised in ACPI FADT
     and allow that driver to work without a dedicated IRQ if the ACPI
     alarm is used (Rafael Wysocki)

   - Clean up the ACPI TAD driver in various ways and add an RTC class
     device interface, including both the RTC setting/reading and alarm
     timer support, to it (Rafael Wysocki)

   - Clean up the ACPI AC and ACPI PAD (processor aggregator device)
     drivers (Rafael Wysocki)

   - Rework checking for duplicate video bus devices and consolidate
     pnp.bus_id workarounds handling in the ACPI video bus driver
     (Rafael Wysocki)

   - Update the ACPI core device drivers to stop setting
     acpi_device_name() unnecessarily (Rafael Wysocki)

   - Rearrange code using acpi_device_class() in the ACPI core device
     drivers and update them to stop setting acpi_device_class()
     unnecessarily (Rafael Wysocki)

   - Define ACPI_AC_CLASS in one place (Rafael Wysocki)

   - Convert the ni903x_wdt watchdog driver and the xen ACPI PAD driver
     to bind to platform devices instead of ACPI devices (Rafael
     Wysocki)

   - Add devm_ghes_register_vendor_record_notifier(), use it in the PCI
     hisi driver, and Add NVIDIA vendor CPER record handler (Kai-Heng
     Feng)

   - Consolidate the interface for obtaining a CPU UID from ACPI across
     architectures and use it to address incorrect PCI TPH Steering Tag
     on ARM64 resulting from the invalid assumption that the ACPI
     Processor UID would always be the same as the corresponding logical
     CPU ID in Linux (Chengwen Feng)"

nohz_full was introduced in v3.10 in 2013, which means this
documentation is overdue for 13 years.

Fortunately Paul wrote a part of the needed documentation a while ago,
especially concerning nohz_full in Documentation/timers/no_hz.rst and
also about per-CPU kthreads in
Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-per-CPU-kthreads.rst

Introduce a new page that gives an overview of CPU isolation in general.

15d49089e5 Documentation/kernel-parameters: fix architecture alignment for pt, nopt, and nobypass
Commit ab0e7f2076 ("Documentation: Merge x86-specific boot options doc
into kernel-parameters.txt") introduced a formatting regression where
architecture tags were placed on separate lines with broken indentation.
This caused the 'nopt' [X86] parameter to appear as if it belonged to
the [PPC/POWERNV] section.

Furthermore, since the main 'iommu=' parameter heading already specifies
it is for [X86, EARLY], the subsequent standalone [X86] tags for 'pt',
'nopt', and the AMD GART options are redundant and clutter the
documentation.

Clean up the formatting by removing these redundant tags and properly
attributing the 'nobypass' option to [PPC/POWERNV].

6f1e182387 Docs/mm/damon: document min_nr_regions constraint and rationale
The current DAMON implementation requires 'min_nr_regions' to be at least
3.  However, this constraint is not explicitly documented in the
admin-guide documents, nor is its design rationale explained in the design
document.

Add a section in design.rst to explain the rationale: the virtual address
space monitoring design needs to handle at least three regions to
accommodate two large unmapped areas.  While this is specific to 'vaddr',
DAMON currently enforces it across all operation sets for consistency.

Also update reclaim.rst and lru_sort.rst by adding cross-references to
this constraint within their respective 'min_nr_regions' parameter
description sections, ensuring users are aware of the lower bound.

This change is motivated from a recent discussion [1].

cedfa028b5 zram: remove chained recompression
Chained recompression has unpredictable behavior and is not useful in
practice.

First, systems usually configure just one alternative recompression
algorithm, which has slower compression/decompression but better
compression ratio.  A single alternative algorithm doesn't need chaining.

Second, even with multiple recompression algorithms, chained recompression
is suboptimal.  If a lower priority algorithm succeeds, the page is never
attempted with a higher priority algorithm, leading to worse memory
savings.  If a lower priority algorithm fails, the page is still attempted
with a higher priority algorithm, wasting resources on the failed lower
priority attempt.

In either case, the system would be better off targeting a specific
priority directly.

Chained recompression also significantly complicates the code.  Remove it.

d50569612c mm: rename the 'compound_head' field in the 'struct page' to 'compound_info'
The 'compound_head' field in the 'struct page' encodes whether the page is
a tail and where to locate the head page.  Bit 0 is set if the page is a
tail, and the remaining bits in the field point to the head page.

As preparation for changing how the field encodes information about the
head page, rename the field to 'compound_info'.

da735962d0 kfence: add kfence.fault parameter
Add kfence.fault parameter to control the behavior when a KFENCE error is
detected (similar in spirit to kasan.fault=<mode>).

The supported modes for kfence.fault=<mode> are:

  - report: print the error report and continue (default).
  - oops: print the error report and oops.
  - panic: print the error report and panic.

In particular, the 'oops' mode offers a trade-off between no mitigation
on report and panicking outright (if panic_on_oops is not set).

6b0dd42d76 kho: remove finalize state and clients
Eliminate the `kho_finalize()` function and its associated state from the
KHO subsystem.  The transition to a radix tree for memory tracking makes
the explicit "finalize" state and its serialization step obsolete.

Remove the `kho_finalize()` and `kho_finalized()` APIs and their stub
implementations.  Update KHO client code and the debugfs interface to no
longer call or depend on the `kho_finalize()` mechanism.

Complete the move towards a stateless KHO, simplifying the overall design
by removing unnecessary state management.

5ad41a38c3 mm: zswap: add per-memcg stat for incompressible pages
Patch series "mm: zswap: add per-memcg stat for incompressible pages", v3.

In containerized environments, knowing which cgroup is contributing
incompressible pages to zswap is essential for effective resource
management.  This series adds a new per-memcg stat 'zswap_incomp' to track
incompressible pages, along with a selftest.


This patch (of 2):

The global zswap_stored_incompressible_pages counter was added in commit
dca4437a58 ("mm/zswap: store <PAGE_SIZE compression failed page as-is")
to track how many pages are stored in raw (uncompressed) form in zswap. 
However, in containerized environments, knowing which cgroup is
contributing incompressible pages is essential for effective resource
management [1].

Add a new memcg stat 'zswap_incomp' to track incompressible pages per
cgroup.  This helps administrators and orchestrators to:

1. Identify workloads that produce incompressible data (e.g., encrypted
   data, already-compressed media, random data) and may not benefit from
   zswap.

2. Make informed decisions about workload placement - moving
   incompressible workloads to nodes with larger swap backing devices
   rather than relying on zswap.

3. Debug zswap efficiency issues at the cgroup level without needing to
   correlate global stats with individual cgroups.

While the compression ratio can be estimated from existing stats (zswap /
zswapped * PAGE_SIZE), this doesn't distinguish between "uniformly poor
compression" and "a few completely incompressible pages mixed with highly
compressible ones".  The zswap_incomp stat provides direct visibility into
the latter case.

b2a78fec34 zloop: add max_open_zones option
Introduce the new max_open_zones option to allow specifying a limit on
the maximum number of open zones of a zloop device. This change allows
creating a zloop device that can more closely mimick the characteristics
of a physical SMR drive.

When set to a non zero value, only up to max_open_zones zones can be in
the implicit open (BLK_ZONE_COND_IMP_OPEN) and explicit open
(BLK_ZONE_COND_EXP_OPEN) conditions at any time. The transition to the
implicit open condition of a zone on a write operation can result in an
implicit close of an already implicitly open zone. This is handled in
the function zloop_do_open_zone(). This function also handles
transitions to the explicit open condition. Implicit close transitions
are handled using an LRU ordered list of open zones which is managed
using the helper functions zloop_lru_rotate_open_zone() and
zloop_lru_remove_open_zone().

f52792f484 NFSD: Enforce timeout on layout recall and integrate lease manager fencing
When a layout conflict triggers a recall, enforcing a timeout is
necessary to prevent excessive nfsd threads from being blocked in
__break_lease ensuring the server continues servicing incoming
requests efficiently.

This patch introduces a new function to lease_manager_operations:

lm_breaker_timedout: Invoked when a lease recall times out and is
about to be disposed of. This function enables the lease manager
to inform the caller whether the file_lease should remain on the
flc_list or be disposed of.

For the NFSD lease manager, this function now handles layout recall
timeouts. If the layout type supports fencing and the client has not
been fenced, a fence operation is triggered to prevent the client
from accessing the block device.

While the fencing operation is in progress, the conflicting file_lease
remains on the flc_list until fencing is complete. This guarantees
that no other clients can access the file, and the client with
exclusive access is properly blocked before disposal.

de83258343 doc: watchdog: clarify hardlockup detection timing
The current documentation implies that a hardlockup is strictly defined as
looping for "more than 10 seconds." However, the detection mechanism is
periodic (based on `watchdog_thresh`), meaning detection time varies
significantly depending on when the lockup occurs relative to the NMI perf
event.

Update the definition to remove the strict "more than 10 seconds"
constraint in the introduction and defer details to the Implementation
section.

Additionally, add a "Detection Overhead" section illustrating the Best
Case (~6s) and Worst Case (~20s) detection scenarios to provide
administrators with a clearer understanding of the watchdog's latency.

49085e1b70 hung_task: enable runtime reset of hung_task_detect_count
Currently, the hung_task_detect_count sysctl provides a cumulative count
of hung tasks since boot.  In long-running, high-availability
environments, this counter may lose its utility if it cannot be reset once
an incident has been resolved.  Furthermore, the previous implementation
relied upon implicit ordering, which could not strictly guarantee that
diagnostic metadata published by one CPU was visible to the panic logic on
another.

This patch introduces the capability to reset the detection count by
writing "0" to the hung_task_detect_count sysctl.  The proc_handler logic
has been updated to validate this input and atomically reset the counter.

The synchronisation of sysctl_hung_task_detect_count relies upon a
transactional model to ensure the integrity of the detection counter
against concurrent resets from userspace.  The application of
atomic_long_read_acquire() and atomic_long_cmpxchg_release() is correct
and provides the following guarantees:

    1. Prevention of Load-Store Reordering via Acquire Semantics By
       utilising atomic_long_read_acquire() to snapshot the counter
       before initiating the task traversal, we establish a strict
       memory barrier. This prevents the compiler or hardware from
       reordering the initial load to a point later in the scan. Without
       this "acquire" barrier, a delayed load could potentially read a
       "0" value resulting from a userspace reset that occurred
       mid-scan. This would lead to the subsequent cmpxchg succeeding
       erroneously, thereby overwriting the user's reset with stale
       increment data.

    2. Atomicity of the "Commit" Phase via Release Semantics The
       atomic_long_cmpxchg_release() serves as the transaction's commit
       point. The "release" barrier ensures that all diagnostic
       recordings and task-state observations made during the scan are
       globally visible before the counter is incremented.

    3. Race Condition Resolution This pairing effectively detects any
       "out-of-band" reset of the counter. If
       sysctl_hung_task_detect_count is modified via the procfs
       interface during the scan, the final cmpxchg will detect the
       discrepancy between the current value and the "acquire" snapshot.
       Consequently, the update will fail, ensuring that a reset command
       from the administrator is prioritised over a scan that may have
       been invalidated by that very reset.

ac66a73be0 x86/fred: Enable FRED by default
When FRED was added to the mainline kernel, it was set up as an explicit
opt-in due to the risk of regressions before hardware was available publicly.

Now, Panther Lake (Core Ultra 300 series) has been released, and benchmarking
by Phoronix has shown that it provides a significant performance benefit on
most workloads:

  https://www.phoronix.com/review/intel-fred-panther-lake

Accordingly, enable FRED by default if the CPU supports it. FRED can of
course still be disabled via the fred=off command line option.

763aacf86f clocksource: Rewrite watchdog code completely
The clocksource watchdog code has over time reached the state of an
impenetrable maze of duct tape and staples. The original design, which was
made in the context of systems far smaller than today, is based on the
assumption that the to be monitored clocksource (TSC) can be trivially
compared against a known to be stable clocksource (HPET/ACPI-PM timer).

Over the years it turned out that this approach has major flaws:

  - Long delays between watchdog invocations can result in wrap arounds
    of the reference clocksource

  - Scalability of the reference clocksource readout can degrade on large
    multi-socket systems due to interconnect congestion

This was addressed with various heuristics which degraded the accuracy of
the watchdog to the point that it fails to detect actual TSC problems on
older hardware which exposes slow inter CPU drifts due to firmware
manipulating the TSC to hide SMI time.

To address this and bring back sanity to the watchdog, rewrite the code
completely with a different approach:

  1) Restrict the validation against a reference clocksource to the boot
     CPU, which is usually the CPU/Socket closest to the legacy block which
     contains the reference source (HPET/ACPI-PM timer). Validate that the
     reference readout is within a bound latency so that the actual
     comparison against the TSC stays within 500ppm as long as the clocks
     are stable.

  2) Compare the TSCs of the other CPUs in a round robin fashion against
     the boot CPU in the same way the TSC synchronization on CPU hotplug
     works. This still can suffer from delayed reaction of the remote CPU
     to the SMP function call and the latency of the control variable cache
     line. But this latency is not affecting correctness. It only affects
     the accuracy. With low contention the readout latency is in the low
     nanoseconds range, which detects even slight skews between CPUs. Under
     high contention this becomes obviously less accurate, but still
     detects slow skews reliably as it solely relies on subsequent readouts
     being monotonically increasing. It just can take slightly longer to
     detect the issue.

  3) Rewrite the watchdog test so it tests the various mechanisms one by
     one and validating the result against the expectation.

b36d1f53d9 x86/vsyscall: Disable LASS if vsyscall mode is set to EMULATE
The EMULATE mode of vsyscall maps the vsyscall page with a high kernel
address directly into user address space. Reading the vsyscall page in
EMULATE mode would cause LASS to trigger a #GP.

Fixing the LASS violation in EMULATE mode would require complex
instruction decoding because the resulting #GP does include the
necessary error information, and the vsyscall address is not
readily available in the RIP.

The EMULATE mode has been deprecated since 2022 and can only be enabled
using the command line parameter vsyscall=emulate. See commit
bf00745e77 ("x86/vsyscall: Remove CONFIG_LEGACY_VSYSCALL_EMULATE") for
details. At this point, no one is expected to be using this insecure
mode. The rare usages that need it obviously do not care about security.

Disable LASS when EMULATE mode is requested to avoid breaking legacy
user software. Also, update the vsyscall documentation to reflect this.
LASS will only be supported if vsyscall mode is set to XONLY (default)
or NONE.

7a60fe48af ima: remove buggy support for asynchronous hashes
IMA computes hashes using the crypto_shash or crypto_ahash API.  The
latter is used only when ima.ahash_minsize is set on the command line,
and its purpose is ostensibly to make the hash computation faster.

However, going off the CPU to a crypto engine and back again is actually
quite slow, especially compared with the acceleration that is built into
modern CPUs and the kernel now enables by default for most algorithms.
Typical performance results for SHA-256 on a modern platform can be
found at https://lore.kernel.org/linux-crypto/20250615184638.GA1480@sol/

Partly for this reason, several other kernel subsystems have already
dropped support for the crypto_ahash API.

The other problem with crypto_ahash is that bugs are also common, not
just in the underlying drivers, but also in the code using it, since it
is very difficult to use correctly.  Just from a quick review, here are
some of the bugs I noticed in IMA's ahash code:

- [Use after free] ima_alloc_atfm() isn't thread-safe and can trigger a
  use-after-free if multiple threads try to initialize the global
  ima_ahash_tfm at the same time.

- [Deadlock] If only one buffer is allocated and there is an error
  reading from the file, then ahash_wait() is executed twice, causing a
  deadlock in wait_for_completion().

- [Crash or incorrect hash computed] calc_buffer_ahash_atfm() is
  sometimes passed stack buffers which can be vmalloc addresses, but it
  puts them in a scatterlist assuming they are linear addresses.  This
  causes the hashing to be done on the wrong physical address.

- [Truncation to 32-bit length] ima_alloc_pages() incorrectly assumes an
  loff_t value fits in an unsigned long.  calc_buffer_ahash_atfm()
  incorrectly assumes that a loff_t value fits in an unsigned int.

So, not exactly a great track record so far, even disregarding driver
bugs which are an even larger problem.  Fortunately, in practice it's
unlikely that many users are actually setting the ima.ahash_minsize
kernel command-line parameter which enables this code.  However, given
that this code is almost certainly no longer useful (if it ever was),
let's just remove it instead of attempting to fix all these issues.

0de607dc4f vsock: add G2H fallback for CIDs not owned by H2G transport
When no H2G transport is loaded, vsock currently routes all CIDs to the
G2H transport (commit 65b422d9b6 ("vsock: forward all packets to the
host when no H2G is registered"). Extend that existing behavior: when
an H2G transport is loaded but does not claim a given CID, the
connection falls back to G2H in the same way.

This matters in environments like Nitro Enclaves, where an instance may
run nested VMs via vhost-vsock (H2G) while also needing to reach sibling
enclaves at higher CIDs through virtio-vsock-pci (G2H). With the old
code, any CID > 2 was unconditionally routed to H2G when vhost was
loaded, making those enclaves unreachable without setting
VMADDR_FLAG_TO_HOST explicitly on every connect.

Requiring every application to set VMADDR_FLAG_TO_HOST creates friction:
tools like socat, iperf, and others would all need to learn about it.
The flag was introduced 6 years ago and I am still not aware of any tool
that supports it. Even if there was support, it would be cumbersome to
use. The most natural experience is a single CID address space where H2G
only wins for CIDs it actually owns, and everything else falls through to
G2H, extending the behavior that already exists when H2G is absent.

To give user space at least a hint that the kernel applied this logic,
automatically set the VMADDR_FLAG_TO_HOST on the remote address so it
can determine the path taken via getpeername().

Add a per-network namespace sysctl net.vsock.g2h_fallback (default 1).
At 0 it forces strict routing: H2G always wins for CID > VMADDR_CID_HOST,
or ENODEV if H2G is not loaded.

9f6a983cfa usb: core: new quirk to handle devices with zero configurations
Some USB devices incorrectly report bNumConfigurations as 0 in their
device descriptor, which causes the USB core to reject them during
enumeration.
logs:
usb 1-2: device descriptor read/64, error -71
usb 1-2: no configurations
usb 1-2: can't read configurations, error -22

However, these devices actually work correctly when
treated as having a single configuration.

Add a new quirk USB_QUIRK_FORCE_ONE_CONFIG to handle such devices.
When this quirk is set, assume the device has 1 configuration instead
of failing with -EINVAL.

This quirk is applied to the device with VID:PID 5131:2007 which
exhibits this behavior.

591230c6f2 ACPI: OSL: Poweroff when encountering a fatal ACPI error
The ACPI spec states that the operating system should respond
to a fatal ACPI error by "performing a controlled OS shutdown in
a timely fashion". Comply with the ACPI specification by powering
off the system when ACPICA signals a fatal ACPI error. Users can
still disable this behavior by using the acpi.poweroff_on_fatal
kernel option to work around firmware bugs.

platform/x86: uniwill-laptop: Rename FN lock and super key lock attrs
It turns out that both sysfs attributes actually directly control
the FN lock status/super key enable status, rather than the
triggering of the associated events. This behavior was first observed
on a Tuxedo notebook and was belived to be a hardware quirk.
However, it seems that i simply misunderstood the manual of the
OEM software for Intel NUC devices. The correct behavior is:

- fn_lock_toggle_enable enables/disables FN lock mode
- super_key_toggle_enable enables/disables the super key

Rename both sysfs attributes to avoid confusing users.

c3c1e98533 More power management updates for 7.0-rc1
- Fix the handling of package-scope MSRs in the intel_rapl power
    capping driver when called from the PMU subsystem and make it add all
    package CPUs to the PMU cpumask to allow tools to read RAPL events
    from any CPU in the package (Kuppuswamy Satharayananyan)
 
  - Rework the invalid version check in the intel_rapl_tpmi power capping
    driver to account for the fact that on partitioned systems, multiple
    TPMI instances may exist per package, but RAPL registers are only
    valid on one instance (Kuppuswamy Satharayananyan)
 
  - Describe the new intel_idle.table command line option in the
    admin-guide intel_idle documentation (Artem Bityutskiy)
 
  - Fix a crash in the ladder cpuidle governor on systems with only one
    (polling) idle state available by making the cpuidle core bypass the
    governor in those cases and adjust the other existing governors to
    that change (Aboorva Devarajan, Christian Loehle)
 
  - Update kerneldoc comments for wake IRQ management functions that
    have not been matching the code (Wang Jiayue)

a07c33c6f2 vsock: document namespace mode sysctls
Add documentation for the vsock per-namespace sysctls (`ns_mode` and
`child_ns_mode`) to Documentation/admin-guide/sysctl/net.rst.
These sysctls were introduced by commit eafb64f40c ("vsock: add
netns to vsock core").

Document the two namespace modes (`global` and `local`), the
inheritance behavior of `child_ns_mode`, and the restriction preventing
local namespaces from setting `child_ns_mode` to `global`.
