 - The 2 patch series "pid: make sub-init creation retryable" from Oleg
   Nesterov increases the robustness of our creation of init in a new
   namespace.  By clearing away some historical cruft which is no longer
   needed.  Also some documentation fixups are provided.
 
 - The 2 patch series "selftests/fchmodat2: Error handling and general"
   from Mark Brown has a fixup and a cleanup for the fchmodat2() syscall
   selftest.
 
 - The 3 patch series "lib: polynomial: Move to math/ and clean up" from
   Andy Shevchenko does as advertised.
 
 - The 3 patch series "hung_task: Provide runtime reset interface for
   hung task detector" from Aaron Tomlin gives administrators the ability
   to zero out /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_detect_count.
 
 - The 2 patch series "tools/getdelays: use the static UAPI headers from
   tools/include/uapi" from Thomas Weißschuh teaches getdelays to use the
   in-kernel UAPI headers rather than the system-provided ones.
 
 - The 5 patch series "watchdog/hardlockup: Improvements to hardlockup"
   from Mayank Rungta provides several cleanups and fixups to the
   hardlockup detector code and its documentation.
 
 - The 2 patch series "lib/bch: fix undefined behavior from signed
   left-shifts" from Josh Law provides a couple of small/theoretical fixes
   in the bch code.
 
 - The 2 patch series "ocfs2/dlm: fix two bugs in dlm_match_regions()"
   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
   block read callbacks" from Joseph Qi addresses ocfs2's validation of
   extent list fields - cleanup, simplification, robustness.  (Kernel test
   robot loves mounting corrupted fs images!)

Merge tag 'arm64-upstream' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux

Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:
 "The biggest changes are MPAM enablement in drivers/resctrl and new PMU
  support under drivers/perf.

  On the core side, FEAT_LSUI lets futex atomic operations with EL0
  permissions, avoiding PAN toggling.

  The rest is mostly TLB invalidation refactoring, further generic entry
  work, sysreg updates and a few fixes.

  Core features:

   - Add support for FEAT_LSUI, allowing futex atomic operations without
     toggling Privileged Access Never (PAN)

   - Further refactor the arm64 exception handling code towards the
     generic entry infrastructure

   - Optimise __READ_ONCE() with CONFIG_LTO=y and allow alias analysis
     through it

  Memory management:

   - Refactor the arm64 TLB invalidation API and implementation for
     better control over barrier placement and level-hinted invalidation

   - Enable batched TLB flushes during memory hot-unplug

   - Fix rodata=full block mapping support for realm guests (when
     BBML2_NOABORT is available)

   - Clean up iomem resource handling in the Arm CMN driver

   - Fix signedness handling of AA64DFR0.{PMUVer,PerfMon}

3a6455d56b mm: convert do_brk_flags() to use vma_flags_t 
In order to be able to do this, we need to change VM_DATA_DEFAULT_FLAGS
and friends and update the architecture-specific definitions also.

We then have to update some KSM logic to handle VMA flags, and introduce
VMA_STACK_FLAGS to define the vma_flags_t equivalent of VM_STACK_FLAGS.

We also introduce two helper functions for use during the time we are
converting legacy flags to vma_flags_t values - vma_flags_to_legacy() and
legacy_to_vma_flags().

This enables us to iteratively make changes to break these changes up into
separate parts.

We use these explicitly here to keep VM_STACK_FLAGS around for certain
users which need to maintain the legacy vm_flags_t values for the time
being.

We are no longer able to rely on the simple VM_xxx being set to zero if
the feature is not enabled, so in the case of VM_DROPPABLE we introduce
VMA_DROPPABLE as the vma_flags_t equivalent, which is set to
EMPTY_VMA_FLAGS if the droppable flag is not available.

While we're here, we make the description of do_brk_flags() into a kdoc
comment, as it almost was already.

We use vma_flags_to_legacy() to not need to update the vm_get_page_prot()
logic as this time.

Note that in create_init_stack_vma() we have to replace the BUILD_BUG_ON()
with a VM_WARN_ON_ONCE() as the tested values are no longer build time
available.

We also update mprotect_fixup() to use VMA flags where possible, though we
have to live with a little duplication between vm_flags_t and vma_flags_t
values for the time being until further conversions are made.

While we're here, update VM_SPECIAL to be defined in terms of
VMA_SPECIAL_FLAGS now we have vma_flags_to_legacy().

Finally, we update the VMA tests to reflect these changes.

6215d9f447 arch, mm: consolidate empty_zero_page 
Reduce 22 declarations of empty_zero_page to 3 and 23 declarations of
ZERO_PAGE() to 4.

Every architecture defines empty_zero_page that way or another, but for the
most of them it is always a page aligned page in BSS and most definitions
of ZERO_PAGE do virt_to_page(empty_zero_page).

Move Linus vetted x86 definition of empty_zero_page and ZERO_PAGE() to the
core MM and drop these definitions in architectures that do not implement
colored zero page (MIPS and s390).

ZERO_PAGE() remains a macro because turning it to a wrapper for a static
inline causes severe pain in header dependencies.

For the most part the change is mechanical, with these being noteworthy:

* alpha: aliased empty_zero_page with ZERO_PGE that was also used for boot
  parameters. Switching to a generic empty_zero_page removes the aliasing
  and keeps ZERO_PGE for boot parameters only
* arm64: uses __pa_symbol() in ZERO_PAGE() so that definition of
  ZERO_PAGE() is kept intact.
* m68k/parisc/um: allocated empty_zero_page from memblock,
  although they do not support zero page coloring and having it in BSS
  will work fine.
* sparc64 can have empty_zero_page in BSS rather allocate it, but it
  can't use virt_to_page() for BSS. Keep it's definition of ZERO_PAGE()
  but instead of allocating it, make mem_map_zero point to
  empty_zero_page.
* sh: used empty_zero_page for boot parameters at the very early boot.
  Rename the parameters page to boot_params_page and let sh use the generic
  empty_zero_page.
* hexagon: had an amusing comment about empty_zero_page

	/* A handy thing to have if one has the RAM. Declared in head.S */

  that unfortunately had to go :)

Move the asm/xor.h headers to lib/raid/xor/$(SRCARCH)/xor_arch.h and
include/linux/raid/xor_impl.h to lib/raid/xor/xor_impl.h so that the
xor.ko module implementation is self-contained in lib/raid/.

As this remove the asm-generic mechanism a new kconfig symbol is added to
indicate that a architecture-specific implementations exists, and
xor_arch.h should be included.

15ed3fa23c arm64: cpufeature: Use pmuv3_implemented() function 
Other places that are doing this version comparison are already using
pmuv3_implemented(), so might as well use it here too for consistency.

89e6796fa5 ARM: vdso: gettimeofday: Add explicit includes 
The reference to VDSO_CLOCKMODE_NONE requires vdso/clocksource.h and
'struct old_timespec32' requires vdso/time32.h. Currently these headers
are included transitively, but those transitive inclusions are about to go
away.

Explicitly include the headers.

b52343d1cb ARM: clean up the memset64() C wrapper 
The current logic to split the 64-bit argument into its 32-bit halves is
byte-order specific and a bit clunky.  Use a union instead which is
easier to read and works in all cases.

GCC still generates the same machine code.

While at it, rename the arguments of the __memset64() prototype to
actually reflect their semantics.

2b398c0562 asm-generic header updates for 7.0 
A series from Thomas Weißschuh cleans up the UAPI header files to no
 longer contain any references to Kconfig symbols, as these make no sense
 in userspace. The build-time check for these was originally added by Sam
 Ravnborg in linux-2.6.28, and a later version started warning for all
 newly added CONFIG_* checks here but kept a list of known exceptions. With
 the last exceptions gone from that list, the warning is now unconditional
 in 'make headers_install'.

Merge tag 'arm64-upstream' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux

Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
 "There's a little less than normal, probably due to LPC & Christmas/New
  Year meaning that a few series weren't quite ready or reviewed in
  time. It's still useful across the board, despite the only real
  feature being support for the LS64 feature enabling 64-byte atomic
  accesses to endpoints that support it.

  ACPI:
   - Add interrupt signalling support to the AGDI handler
   - Add Catalin and myself to the arm64 ACPI MAINTAINERS entry

  CPU features:
   - Drop Kconfig options for PAN and LSE (these are detected at runtime)
   - Add support for 64-byte single-copy atomic instructions (LS64/LS64V)
   - Reduce MTE overhead when executing in the kernel on Ampere CPUs
   - Ensure POR_EL0 value exposed via ptrace is up-to-date
   - Fix error handling on GCS allocation failure

  CPU frequency:
   - Add CPU hotplug support to the FIE setup in the AMU driver

  Entry code:
   - Minor optimisations and cleanups to the syscall entry path
   - Preparatory rework for moving to the generic syscall entry code

  Hardware errata:
   - Work around Spectre-BHB on TSV110 processors
   - Work around broken CMO propagation on some systems with the SI-L1
     interconnect

  Miscellaneous:
   - Disable branch profiling for arch/arm64/ to avoid issues with
     noinstr
   - Minor fixes and cleanups (kexec + ubsan, WARN_ONCE() instead of
     WARN_ON(), reduction of boolean expression)
   - Fix custom __READ_ONCE() implementation for LTO builds when
     operating on non-atomic types

  Perf and PMUs:
   - Support for CMN-600AE
   - Be stricter about supported hardware in the CMN driver
   - Support for DSU-110 and DSU-120
   - Support for the cycles event in the DSU driver (alongside the
     dedicated cycles counter)
   - Use IRQF_NO_THREAD instead of IRQF_ONESHOT in the cxlpmu driver
   - Use !bitmap_empty() as a faster alternative to bitmap_weight()
   - Fix SPE error handling when failing to resume profiling

  Selftests:
   - Add support for the FORCE_TARGETS option to the arm64 kselftests
   - Avoid nolibc-specific my_syscall() function
   - Add basic test for the LS64 HWCAP
   - Extend fp-pidbench to cover additional workload patterns"

18b7cc70de arm: make initialization of zero page independent of the memory map 
Unlike most architectures, arm keeps a struct page pointer to the
empty_zero_page and to initialize it requires conversion of a virtual
address to page which makes it necessary to have memory map initialized
before creating the empty_zero_page.

Make empty_zero_page a stataic array in BSS to decouple it's
initialization from the initialization of the memory map.

This also aligns arm with vast majorty of architectures.

8e38607aa4 treewide: provide a generic clear_user_page() variant 
Patch series "mm: folio_zero_user: clear page ranges", v11.

This series adds clearing of contiguous page ranges for hugepages.

The series improves on the current discontiguous clearing approach in two
ways:

  - clear pages in a contiguous fashion.
  - use batched clearing via clear_pages() wherever exposed.

The first is useful because it allows us to make much better use of
hardware prefetchers.

The second, enables advertising the real extent to the processor.  Where
specific instructions support it (ex.  string instructions on x86; "mops"
on arm64 etc), a processor can optimize based on this because, instead of
seeing a sequence of 8-byte stores, or a sequence of 4KB pages, it sees a
larger unit being operated on.

For instance, AMD Zen uarchs (for extents larger than LLC-size) switch to
a mode where they start eliding cacheline allocation.  This is helpful not
just because it results in higher bandwidth, but also because now the
cache is not evicting useful cachelines and replacing them with zeroes.

Demand faulting a 64GB region shows performance improvement:

 $ perf bench mem mmap -p $pg-sz -f demand -s 64GB -l 5

                       baseline              +series
                   (GBps +- %stdev)      (GBps +- %stdev)

   pg-sz=2MB       11.76 +- 1.10%        25.34 +- 1.18% [*]   +115.47%  	preempt=*

   pg-sz=1GB       24.85 +- 2.41%        39.22 +- 2.32%       + 57.82%  	preempt=none|voluntary
   pg-sz=1GB         (similar)           52.73 +- 0.20% [#]   +112.19%  	preempt=full|lazy

 [*] This improvement is because switching to sequential clearing
  allows the hardware prefetchers to do a much better job.

 [#] For pg-sz=1GB a large part of the improvement is because of the
  cacheline elision mentioned above. preempt=full|lazy improves upon
  that because, not needing explicit invocations of cond_resched() to
  ensure reasonable preemption latency, it can clear the full extent
  as a single unit. In comparison the maximum extent used for
  preempt=none|voluntary is PROCESS_PAGES_NON_PREEMPT_BATCH (32MB).

  When provided the full extent the processor forgoes allocating
  cachelines on this path almost entirely.

  (The hope is that eventually, in the fullness of time, the lazy
   preemption model will be able to do the same job that none or
   voluntary models are used for, allowing us to do away with
   cond_resched().)

Raghavendra also tested previous version of the series on AMD Genoa and
sees similar improvement [1] with preempt=lazy.

  $ perf bench mem map -p $page-size -f populate -s 64GB -l 10

                    base               patched              change
   pg-sz=2MB       12.731939 GB/sec    26.304263 GB/sec     106.6%
   pg-sz=1GB       26.232423 GB/sec    61.174836 GB/sec     133.2%


This patch (of 8):

Let's drop all variants that effectively map to clear_page() and provide
it in a generic variant instead.

We'll use the macro clear_user_page to indicate whether an architecture
provides it's own variant.

Also, clear_user_page() is only called from the generic variant of
clear_user_highpage(), so define it only if the architecture does not
provide a clear_user_highpage().  And, for simplicity define it in
linux/highmem.h.

Note that for parisc, clear_page() and clear_user_page() map to
clear_page_asm(), so we can just get rid of the custom clear_user_page()
implementation.  There is a clear_user_page_asm() function on parisc, that
seems to be unused.  Not sure what's up with that.

15518e633b arm/paravirt: Use common code for paravirt_steal_clock() 
Remove the arch-specific variant of paravirt_steal_clock() and use
the common one instead.

This allows to remove paravirt.c and paravirt.h from arch/arm.

Until all archs supporting Xen have been switched to the common code
of paravirt_steal_clock(), drivers/xen/time.c needs to include
asm/paravirt.h for those archs, while this is not necessary for arm
any longer.

edb924a721 ARM: 9464/1: fix input-only operand modification in load_unaligned_zeropad() 
In the inline assembly inside load_unaligned_zeropad(), the "addr" is
constrained as input-only operand. The compiler assumes that on exit
from the asm statement these operands contain the same values as they
had before executing the statement, but when kernel page fault happened, the assembly fixup code "bic %2 %2, #0x3" modify the value of "addr", which may lead to an unexpected behavior.

Use a temporary variable "tmp" to handle it, instead of modifying the
input-only operand, just like what arm64's load_unaligned_zeropad()
does.

 to the new 'kernel_fpsimd_state' field. This field was added to allow
 kernel-mode FPSIMD code to be preempted.
 
 Unfortunately, 528 bytes is kind of a lot for task_struct. This
 regression in the task_struct size was noticed and reported.
 
 Recover that space by making this state be allocated on the stack at
 the beginning of each kernel-mode FPSIMD section.
 
 To make it easier for all the users of kernel-mode FPSIMD to do that
 correctly, introduce and use a 'scoped_ksimd' abstraction.

44c5b6768e ARM: uaccess: Implement missing __get_user_asm_dword() 
When CONFIG_CPU_SPECTRE=n then get_user() is missing the 8 byte ASM variant
for no real good reason. This prevents using get_user(u64) in generic code.

Implement it as a sequence of two 4-byte reads with LE/BE awareness and
make the unsigned long (or long long) type for the intermediate variable to
read into dependend on the the target type.

The __long_type() macro and idea was lifted from PowerPC. Thanks to
Christophe for pointing it out.

   few touchups to the recently added Kexec Handover feature.
 
 - The 10 patch series "mm: make mm->flags a bitmap and 64-bit on all
   arches" from Lorenzo Stoakes turns mm_struct.flags into a bitmap.  To
   end the constant struggle with space shortage on 32-bit conflicting with
   64-bit's needs.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/swapfile.c and swap.h cleanup" from Chris Li
   cleans up some swap code.

   THPs when advised" from David Hildenbrand "allows individual processes
   to opt-out of THP=always into THP=madvise, without affecting other
   workloads on the system".
 
   It's a long story - the [1/N] changelog spells out the considerations.
 
 - The 11 patch series "Add and use memdesc_flags_t" from Matthew Wilcox
   gets us started on the memdesc project.  Please see
   https://kernelnewbies.org/MatthewWilcox/Memdescs and

   than to the cgroups of random inappropriate tasks.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/pageblock: improve readability of some
   pageblock handling" from Wei Yang provides some readability improvements
   to the page allocator code.

   arch-specific implementations" from Sabyrzhan Tasbolatov moves KASAN
   arch-specific initialization code into a common arch-neutral
   implementation.

   zspool - an indirection layer which now only redirects to a single thing
   (zsmalloc).
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm: task_stack: Stack handling cleanups" from
   Pasha Tatashin makes a couple of cleanups in the fork code.
 
 - The 37 patch series "mm: remove nth_page()" from David Hildenbrand

   eventually permitting the removal of that undesirable helper function.
 
 - The 2 patch series "introduce kasan.write_only option in hw-tags" from
   Yeoreum Yun creates a KASAN read-only mode for ARM, using that
   architecture's memory tagging feature.  It is felt that a read-only mode
   KASAN is suitable for use in production systems rather than debug-only.
 
 - The 3 patch series "mm: hugetlb: cleanup hugetlb folio allocation"
   from Kefeng Wang does some tidying in the hugetlb folio allocation code.
 
 - The 12 patch series "mm: establish const-correctness for pointer
   parameters" from Max Kellermann makes quite a number of the MM API
   functions more accurate about the constness of their arguments.  This
   was getting in the way of subsystems (in this case CEPH) when they
   attempt to improving their own const/non-const accuracy.
 
 - The 7 patch series "Cleanup free_pages() misuse" from Vishal Moola
   fixes a number of code sites which were confused over when to use
   free_pages() vs __free_pages().
 
 - The 3 patch series "Add Rust abstraction for Maple Trees" from Alice
   Ryhl makes the mapletree code accessible to Rust.  Required by nouveau
   and by its forthcoming successor: the new Rust Nova driver.
 
 - The 2 patch series "selftests/mm: split_huge_page_test:
   split_pte_mapped_thp improvements" from David Hildenbrand adds a fix and
   some cleanups to the thp selftesting code.
 
 - The 14 patch series "mm, swap: introduce swap table as swap cache
   (phase I)" from Chris Li and Kairui Song is the first step along the
   path to implementing "swap tables" - a new approach to swap allocation
   and state tracking which is expected to yield speed and space
   improvements.  This patchset itself yields a 5-20% performance benefit
   in some situations.
 
 - The 3 patch series "Some ptdesc cleanups" from Matthew Wilcox utilizes
   the new memdesc layer to clean up the ptdesc code a little.
 
 - The 3 patch series "Fix va_high_addr_switch.sh test failure" from
   Chunyu Hu fixes some issues in our 5-level pagetable selftesting code.
 
 - The 2 patch series "Minor fixes for memory allocation profiling" from
   Suren Baghdasaryan addresses a couple of minor issues in relatively new
   memory allocation profiling feature.
 
 - The 3 patch series "Small cleanups" from Matthew Wilcox has a few
   cleanups in preparation for more memdesc work.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/damon: add addr_unit for DAMON_LRU_SORT and
   DAMON_RECLAIM" from Quanmin Yan makes some changes to DAMON in
   furtherance of supporting arm highmem.
 
 - The 2 patch series "selftests/mm: Add -Wunreachable-code and fix
   warnings" from Muhammad Anjum adds that compiler check to selftests code
   and fixes the fallout, by removing dead code.
 
 - The 10 patch series "Improvements to Victim Process Thawing and OOM
   Reaper Traversal Order" from zhongjinji makes a number of improvements
   in the OOM killer: mainly thawing a more appropriate group of victim
   threads so they can release resources.
 
 - The 5 patch series "mm/damon: misc fixups and improvements for 6.18"
   from SeongJae Park is a bunch of small and unrelated fixups for DAMON.
 
 - The 7 patch series "mm/damon: define and use DAMON initialization
   check function" from SeongJae Park implement reliability and
   maintainability improvements to a recently-added bug fix.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/damon/stat: expose auto-tuned intervals and
   non-idle ages" from SeongJae Park provides additional transparency to
   userspace clients of the DAMON_STAT information.
 
 - The 2 patch series "Expand scope of khugepaged anonymous collapse"
   from Dev Jain removes some constraints on khubepaged's collapsing of
   anon VMAs.  It also increases the success rate of MADV_COLLAPSE against
   an anon vma.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm: do not assume file == vma->vm_file in
   compat_vma_mmap_prepare()" from Lorenzo Stoakes moves us further towards
   removal of file_operations.mmap().  This patchset concentrates upon
   clearing up the treatment of stacked filesystems.
 
 - The 6 patch series "mm: Improve mlock tracking for large folios" from
   Kiryl Shutsemau provides some fixes and improvements to mlock's tracking
   of large folios.  /proc/meminfo's "Mlocked" field became more accurate.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/ksm: Fix incorrect accounting of KSM counters
   during fork" from Donet Tom fixes several user-visible KSM stats
   inaccuracies across forks and adds selftest code to verify these
   counters.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm_slot: fix the usage of mm_slot_entry" from Wei
   Yang addresses some potential but presently benign issues in KSM's
   mm_slot handling.

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

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

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

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

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

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

 - floppy arch cleanups

 - Reduce the number of dereferencing needed for ublk commands

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

 - A few s390 dasd block fixes

 - Fix a few issues around atomic writes

 - Improve DMA interation for integrity requests

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

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

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

 - Improve locking of request lookup, using SRCU where appropriate

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

 - Fix ordering of recursively submitted IOs

 - Clean up and improve updating nr_requests for a live device

 - Various fixes and cleanups

a847b17009 mm: constify highmem related functions for improved const-correctness 
Lots of functions in mm/highmem.c do not write to the given pointers and
do not call functions that take non-const pointers and can therefore be
constified.

This includes functions like kunmap() which might be implemented in a way
that writes to the pointer (e.g.  to update reference counters or mapping
fields), but currently are not.

kmap() on the other hand cannot be made const because it calls
set_page_address() which is non-const in some
architectures/configurations.

53fbef56e0 mm: introduce memdesc_flags_t 
Patch series "Add and use memdesc_flags_t".

At some point struct page will be separated from struct slab and struct
folio.  This is a step towards that by introducing a type for the 'flags'
word of all three structures.  This gives us a certain amount of type
safety by establishing that some of these unsigned longs are different
from other unsigned longs in that they contain things like node ID,
section number and zone number in the upper bits.  That lets us have
functions that can be easily called by anyone who has a slab, folio or
page (but not easily by anyone else) to get the node or zone.

There's going to be some unusual merge problems with this as some odd bits
of the kernel decide they want to print out the flags value or something
similar by writing page->flags and now they'll need to write page->flags.f
instead.  That's most of the churn here.  Maybe we should be removing
these things from the debug output?


This patch (of 11):

Wrap the unsigned long flags in a typedef.  In upcoming patches, this will
provide a strong hint that you can't just pass a random unsigned long to
functions which take this as an argument.

c7a18100bd ("lib/vdso: Avoid highres update if clocksource is not

It also only has one user in vdso.c, once during init, so rather than

00c010e130 - The 11 patch series "Add folio_mk_pte()" from Matthew Wilcox 
simplifies the act of creating a pte which addresses the first page in a
   folio and reduces the amount of plumbing which architecture must
   implement to provide this.
 
 - The 8 patch series "Misc folio patches for 6.16" from Matthew Wilcox
   is a shower of largely unrelated folio infrastructure changes which
   clean things up and better prepare us for future work.
 
 - The 3 patch series "memory,x86,acpi: hotplug memory alignment
   advisement" from Gregory Price adds early-init code to prevent x86 from
   leaving physical memory unused when physical address regions are not
   aligned to memory block size.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/compaction: allow more aggressive proactive
   compaction" from Michal Clapinski provides some tuning of the (sadly,
   hard-coded (more sadly, not auto-tuned)) thresholds for our invokation
   of proactive compaction.  In a simple test case, the reduction of a guest
   VM's memory consumption was dramatic.
 
 - The 8 patch series "Minor cleanups and improvements to swap freeing
   code" from Kemeng Shi provides some code cleaups and a small efficiency
   improvement to this part of our swap handling code.
 
 - The 6 patch series "ptrace: introduce PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO API"
   from Dmitry Levin adds the ability for a ptracer to modify syscalls
   arguments.  At this time we can alter only "system call information that
   are used by strace system call tampering, namely, syscall number,
   syscall arguments, and syscall return value.
 
   This series should have been incorporated into mm.git's "non-MM"
   branch, but I goofed.
 
 - The 3 patch series "fs/proc: extend the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl to report
   guard regions" from Andrei Vagin extends the info returned by the
   PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl against /proc/pid/pagemap.  This permits CRIU to more
   efficiently get at the info about guard regions.
 
 - The 2 patch series "Fix parameter passed to page_mapcount_is_type()"
   from Gavin Shan implements that fix.  No runtime effect is expected
   because validate_page_before_insert() happens to fix up this error.
 
 - The 3 patch series "kernel/events/uprobes: uprobe_write_opcode()
   rewrite" from David Hildenbrand basically brings uprobe text poking into
   the current decade.  Remove a bunch of hand-rolled implementation in
   favor of using more current facilities.
 
 - The 3 patch series "mm/ptdump: Drop assumption that pxd_val() is u64"
   from Anshuman Khandual provides enhancements and generalizations to the
   pte dumping code.  This might be needed when 128-bit Page Table
   Descriptors are enabled for ARM.
 
 - The 12 patch series "Always call constructor for kernel page tables"
   from Kevin Brodsky "ensures that the ctor/dtor is always called for
   kernel pgtables, as it already is for user pgtables".  This permits the
   addition of more functionality such as "insert hooks to protect page
   tables".  This change does result in various architectures performing
   unnecesary work, but this is fixed up where it is anticipated to occur.
 
 - The 9 patch series "Rust support for mm_struct, vm_area_struct, and
   mmap" from Alice Ryhl adds plumbing to permit Rust access to core MM
   structures.
 
 - The 3 patch series "fix incorrectly disallowed anonymous VMA merges"
   from Lorenzo Stoakes takes advantage of some VMA merging opportunities
   which we've been missing for 15 years.
 
 - The 4 patch series "mm/madvise: batch tlb flushes for MADV_DONTNEED
   and MADV_FREE" from SeongJae Park optimizes process_madvise()'s TLB
   flushing.  Instead of flushing each address range in the provided iovec,
   we batch the flushing across all the iovec entries.  The syscall's cost
   was approximately halved with a microbenchmark which was designed to
   load this particular operation.

Merge tag 'mm-stable-2025-05-31-14-50' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:

 - "Add folio_mk_pte()" from Matthew Wilcox simplifies the act of
   creating a pte which addresses the first page in a folio and reduces
   the amount of plumbing which architecture must implement to provide
   this.

 - "Misc folio patches for 6.16" from Matthew Wilcox is a shower of
   largely unrelated folio infrastructure changes which clean things up
   and better prepare us for future work.

 - "memory,x86,acpi: hotplug memory alignment advisement" from Gregory
   Price adds early-init code to prevent x86 from leaving physical
   memory unused when physical address regions are not aligned to memory
   block size.

 - "mm/compaction: allow more aggressive proactive compaction" from
   Michal Clapinski provides some tuning of the (sadly, hard-coded (more
   sadly, not auto-tuned)) thresholds for our invokation of proactive
   compaction. In a simple test case, the reduction of a guest VM's
   memory consumption was dramatic.

 - "Minor cleanups and improvements to swap freeing code" from Kemeng
   Shi provides some code cleaups and a small efficiency improvement to
   this part of our swap handling code.

 - "ptrace: introduce PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO API" from Dmitry Levin
   adds the ability for a ptracer to modify syscalls arguments. At this
   time we can alter only "system call information that are used by
   strace system call tampering, namely, syscall number, syscall
   arguments, and syscall return value.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

   stress-ng mmap performance increased by single-digit percentages and

293bb04938 ARM: 9446/1: Disallow kernel mode NEON when IRQs are disabled 
Commit

  c79f816311 ("ARM: 9283/1: permit non-nested kernel mode NEON in softirq context")

relaxed the rules around the use of SIMD instructions in kernel mode on
ARM, to allow such use when serving a softirq. To avoid having to
preserve/restore kernel mode NEON state when such a softirq is taken,
softirqs are now disabled when using the NEON from task context.

However, the fact that the softirq API does not allow unmasking of
softirqs with interrupts disabled was overlooked, resulting in a WARN()
in some cases, as reported by Guenter:

  WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1145 at kernel/softirq.c:369 __local_bh_enable_ip+0x118/0x194
  Call trace:
   unwind_backtrace from show_stack+0x10/0x14
   show_stack from dump_stack_lvl+0x7c/0xac
   dump_stack_lvl from __warn+0x7c/0x1b8
   __warn from warn_slowpath_fmt+0x19c/0x1a4
   warn_slowpath_fmt from __local_bh_enable_ip+0x118/0x194
   __local_bh_enable_ip from crc_t10dif_arch+0xd4/0xe8
   crc_t10dif_arch from crc_t10dif_wrapper+0x14/0x1c
   crc_t10dif_wrapper from crc_main_test+0x178/0x360
   crc_main_test from kunit_try_run_case+0x78/0x1e0
   kunit_try_run_case from kunit_generic_run_threadfn_adapter+0x1c/0x34
   kunit_generic_run_threadfn_adapter from kthread+0x118/0x254
   kthread from ret_from_fork+0x14/0x28

While disabling softirqs is not really needed when running with IRQs
disabled (given that the only way a softirq can be delivered
asynchrously is over the back of an IRQ), let's not complicate this
logic more than needed, and simply disallow use of the NEON in kernel
mode when IRQs are disabled.

Another approach might be to only disable and re-enable softirqs if IRQs
are enabled, but other than the test case above, there are no clear use
cases for doing non-trivial arithmetic processing (hence using an
accelerated SIMD implementation) with IRQs disabled.
