LoongArch: KVM: Fix TOCTOU race on pv_features
In kvm_loongarch_cpucfg_set_attr() the check-then-set on kvm->arch.pv_features is lockless, so two vCPUs can race past the validation and set different values. Add a spinlock to protect it.

LoongArch: KVM: Add unregister helpers for the KVM interrupt devices
The IPI/EIOINTC/PCH-PIC/DMSINTC KVM devices each have a helper that
registers their kvm_device_ops, but there is no counterpart to remove
them, so a caller that needs to undo a registration has to open-code
kvm_unregister_device_ops() with the matching device type.
Add kvm_loongarch_unregister_{ipi,eiointc,pch_pic,dmsintc}_device()
next to the existing register helpers. kvm_unregister_device_ops() is a
no-op when the corresponding device type is not currently registered.
No functional change, as there are no callers yet.

behavior when region counts exceed half the maximum budget by
dynamically scaling down the split fraction as the limit approaches,
preventing large regions from staying un-split, and adds corresponding
KUnit test coverage.
- The 6 patch series "mm: preparatory patches for PMD level swap
entries" from Usama Arif refactors and cleans up PMD softleaf helpers,
call sites, and architecture flags to lay the groundwork for a follow-up
series that introduces PMD page table swap entries.
- The 11 patch series "mm/damon: update, optimize, and clean up doc,
tests, and code" from SJ Park updates DAMON design and ABI
documentation, expands unit and selftest coverage, optimizes

interface code for better readability.
- The 2 patch series "mm/vmpressure: reduce CPU, memory and code
overhead on cgroup v2" from Usama Arif optimizes vmpressure() by
skipping unnecessary work on cgroup v2 for userspace event notifications
and refactors v1-only eventfd handling into mm/memcontrol-v1.c to reduce
memory overhead and code complexity.
- The 10 patch series "selftests/mm: refactor pkey helpers and fix mmap
error handling" from Hongfu Li refactors pkeys shared tracing and
assertion helpers into a common file, unifies protection key selftests
to use consistent diagnostic logging and assertions, and enforces
standardized MAP_FAILED return checks for mmap() calls across the tests.
- The 18 patch series "mm/damon: optimize out nr_accesses_bp" from SJ
Park replaces the error-prone, continuously updated nr_accesses_bp field
in damon_region with an on-demand moving sum function
(damon_nr_accesses_mvsum()), reducing structure memory overhead and
avoiding state corruption bugs.
- The 6 patch series "Open HugeTLB allocation routine for more generic
use" from Ackerley Tng decouples HugeTLB folio allocation from VMA
dependencies by introducing hugetlb_alloc_folio(), enabling subsystems
like guest_memfd to allocate HugeTLB folios without standard VMA
reservations or pseudo-VMAs.
- The 3 patch series "mm/damon: provide pseudo moving sum probe_hits"
from SJ Park integrates DAMON's probe_hits attribute counter into the
pseudo moving sum infrastructure, enabling real-time, online monitoring
without waiting for full aggregation intervals.
- The 18 patch series "mm: Some cleanups for page allocator APIs" from
Brendan Jackman simplifies and refactors the page allocator entry points
and flags by unifying allocation paths, adding internal alloc_flags
arguments, and eliminating redundant __ prefixed alloc_pages variants.
- The 5 patch series "Fix incorrect access of hugetlb pte entries" from
Dev Jain enforces the consistent use of huge_ptep_get() instead of
ptep_get() for HugeTLB entries and fixes an unaligned address issue in
arm64's huge_ptep_get() implementation.
- The 8 patch series "mm/damon: validate all parameters in the core"
from SJ Park consolidates parameter validation into the DAMON core
specifically within damon_start() and damon_commit_ctx() to centralize
error checking, eliminate caller-side redundant checks and to improve
maintenance efficiency.
- The 3 patch series "tools/mm/page_owner_sort: fix filtering and
cleanup issues" from Yichong Chen renames is_need() to filter_record()
for clearer return semantics, fixes per-record allocation memory leaks
and bounds output copies in search_pattern() to address an existing
buffer issue.
- The 4 patch series "memcg: bail out reclaim when memcg is dying" from
Jiayuan Chen mitigates a system-wide stall which occurs when a cgroup is
removed while one of its memory control files is doing synchronous
reclaim.
- The 5 patch series "mm/memory-failure: add panic option for
unrecoverable pages" from Breno Leitao introduces an opt-in
vm.panic_on_unrecoverable_memory_failure sysctl that immediately panics
the kernel on unrecoverable memory errors in kernel-owned pages to
preserve error context and prevent delayed, silent data corruption.
- The 11 patch series "mm/damon: refactor damon_{start,stop,commit}()
for simple error handling" from SJ Park refactors the DAMON core API
functions to guarantee that all contexts are fully stopped when
damon_start(), damon_stop(), or damon_commit() fail, eliminating the
need for complex and error-prone caller-side cleanup code.
- The 5 patch series "Keep tail page private zero at free and folio
split" from Zi Yan adds checks to ensure tail_page->private is zero when
freeing compound or high-order pages and when promoting tail pages
during large folio splits. By validating these fields at free and split
time, it allows the removal of redundant private field clearing inside
prep_compound_tail().
- The 4 patch series "mm: drop redundant lru_add_drain in anon folio
reuse paths" from Barry Song eliminates redundant lru_add_drain() calls
in wp_can_reuse_anon_folio() and do_swap_page() to reduce LRU lock
contention and system overhead.
By validating folio refcounts against the LRU cache before draining
and removing unnecessary drains in the swap path, it achieves up to a
30.5% reduction in drain calls during heavy swap workloads.
- The 3 patch series "mm: clean up folio LRU and swap declarations" from
Jianyue Wu reorganizes folio LRU and swap code by relocating
page-cluster state to mm/swap_state.c, renaming mm/swap.c to mm/folio.c,
and moving MM-internal reclaim declarations into mm/internal.h.
- The 15 patch series "userfaultfd: working set tracking for VM guest
memory" from Kiryl Shutsemau adds userfaultfd support for tracking the
working set of VM guest memory, so a VMM can identify hot pages and
reclaim cold ones to tiered or remote storage.
- The 10 patch series "mm: remove CONFIG_HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE (Part
2)" from David Hildenbrand removes the remaining pieces of
CONFIG_HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE, performing some smaller cleanups around
freeing of reserved vmemmap pages on the way.
- The 7 patch series "mm/damon: update probe hits for runtime parameter
commits" from SJ Park ensures that DAMON's probe_hits attribute counter
is properly updated when monitoring intervals are changed at runtime,
matching the behavior of nr_accesses. To achieve this, it refactors and
renames existing helper functions for shared use, applies the updates to
probe_hits, and handles edge cases in damon_probe_hits_mvsum() to
maintain measurement accuracy.
- The 3 patch series "KSM: performance optimizations for rmap_walk_ksm"
from xu xin resolves a severe KSM reverse-mapping performance bottleneck
where thousands of split VMAs sharing a single anon_vma cause extended
lock contention. By adding an interval-filtering check during the rmap
walk, it reduces worst-case anon_vma lock hold times from over 500ms
down to under 2ms, preventing application freezes and latency spikes
under memory pressure.
- The 3 patch series "mm: split a couple of headers from internal.h"
from Mike Rapoport splits declarations related to mm_init, memblock,
vmalloc and sparse into new headers.
- The 2 patch series "KSM: use linear_page_index in collect_procs_ksm()"
from xu xin applies the interval tree optimization from rmap_walk_ksm()
to collect_procs_ksm() to avoid iterating over non-matching VMAs during
KSM memory error handling. It hoists loop-invariant address
initialization and restricts the anon_vma_interval_tree_foreach walk to
a targeted page offset range, reducing redundant checks and improving
lookup efficiency.
- The 3 patch series "selftests/mm: avoid false failures in hugetlb and
KSM tests" from Sayali Patil fixes issues in the hugetlb and KSM MM
selftest categories that can report failures when the prerequisites for
the tests are not satisfied.
- The 19 patch series "mm/damon: introduce data attributes only
monitoring" from SJ Park introduces attribute-weighted region management
in DAMON, allowing users to prioritize specific data attributes (such as
page sizes or cgroups) over or instead of access monitoring.
By assigning weights to attribute probes, DAMON can completely disable
access tracking and adjust monitoring regions based on weighted
probe-hit counters to optimize monitoring quality for attribute-focused
workloads.
- The 8 patch series "mm/hmm: Add mmap lock-drop support for
userfaultfd-backed mappings" from Stanislav Kinsburskii extends
hmm_range_fault() to support userfaultfd-backed regions by allowing the
mmap lock to be dropped during fault handling via a new
hmm_range_fault_locked() helper.
By accepting a locked pointer and signaling retry status when lock
release occurs, it enables page fault resolution in userfaultfd regions
while preserving backward compatibility for existing callers.
- The 33 patch series "mm: make VMA page offset handling more
consistent" from Lorenzo Stoakes cleans up and standardizes how
vma->vm_pgoff is accessed and manipulated across file-backed and
anonymous mappings in the kernel.
It introduces dedicated helper functions such as vma_start_pgoff(),
vma_end_pgoff(), vma_set_pgoff() and linear_page_delta() while renaming
rmap interval tree helpers to better reflect their functionality.
These changes establish a cleaner foundation for future work that will
unify virtual page offset indexing for all anonymous and CoW'd folios.
- The 3 patch series "mm: handle device-private PMDs in walk callbacks"
from Usama Arif addresses kernel panics and state corruption caused by
MM walk callbacks reaching non-present device-private PMD swap entries
created during HMM migrations.
It ensures that functions which acquire pmd_trans_huge_lock() properly
recognize device-private PMDs instead of assuming a present THP or a
standard migration entry.
- The 5 patch series "mm/rmap: Refactor try_to_unmap_one" from Dev Jain
refactors try_to_unmap_one by modularizing Hugetlb, anonymous-lazyfree,
and anonymous-swapbacked logic into dedicated functions, laying the
structural groundwork for batched anonymous large folio unmapping.
- The 4 patch series "Docs/ABI/damon: sysfs ABI document fixes and
additions" from Song Hu fixes typos and fills in missing entries in the
DAMON sysfs ABI document.
- The 10 patch series "dax/kmem: atomic whole-device hotplug via sysfs"
from Gregory Price introduces an atomic sysfs state attribute and
supporting DAX/MM infrastructure to prevent userland races when
offlining and removing entire memory regions.
By adding an unplugged state alongside standard online modes, it
enables whole-device atomic hotplug control while preserving backward
compatibility.
- The 13 patch series "mm: convert more vm_flags_t users to vma_flags_t"
from Lorenzo Stoakes continues transitioning the kernel from the
deprecated vm_flags_t type to vma_flags_t across core memory management
infrastructure.
It replaces legacy type usage in core functions such as do_mmap(),
unmapped area allocation, mm->def_vma_flags, and VMA operations like
mlock, mprotect, and mremap.
- The 2 patch series "Two small patches to clean up mm/mm_slot.h" from
xu xin refactors mm_slot.h by introducing mm_slot_remove() to unify
duplicate slot deletion sequences in khugepaged and KSM. It also adds
code documentation explaining why mm_slot_lookup and mm_slot_insert must
remain as preprocessor macros rather than static inline functions.
- The 10 patch series "mm/damon/core: hide core-private struct fields"
from SJ Park cleans up DAMON core structures by consistently marking
internal-only fields with private: comment tags to prevent improper
direct access from outer layers.
It enforces encapsulation across core structures including
damon_region, damon_target, and damon_ctx and updates DAMON_SYSFS to
interact through approved access APIs instead of exposing raw struct
members.
- The 6 patch series "mm/damon: unurgent fixes for infinite loop, NULL
de-ref and races" from SJ Park addresses potential infinite loops, NULL
dereferences, and race conditions identified in DAMON.
It fixes an infinite loop triggered by extreme user configurations, a
NULL pointer dereference within unit tests and minor monitoring
accuracy degradation caused by subtle runtime races.
- The 2 patch series "mm/page_alloc: fixes for free_pages_nolock() on
RT/UP" from Brendan Jackman fixes an NMI safety flaw in
__free_frozen_pages() where freeing pages on non-SMP or PREEMPT_RT
kernels can bypass can_spin_trylock() checks via non-PCP or isolated
migration paths.
It also resolves potential kernel crashes and privilege escalation
risks triggered when BPF tracing runs in NMI context alongside memory
hotplug or large allocation frees.
- The 4 patch series "mm/page_alloc: couple of followups for recent
cleanups" from Brendan Jackman cleans up and updates page allocator
nomenclature, documentation, and debug assertions.
It aligns internal FPI_ flags with the public "nolock" naming
convention, removes outdated internal implementation details from
high-level page allocator comments, and eliminates obsolete VM_BUG_ON()
assertions in allocation paths.
- The 3 patch series "mm/mseal: further cleanups" from Lorenzo Stoakes
refactors and simplifies the mseal implementation by clarifying API
boundaries and removing unnecessary code complexity.
It replaces generic do_mseal() usage outside the syscall with a
dedicated mseal_mmap_page_zero() helper for MMAP_PAGE_ZERO, eliminates
mm_struct parameters to enforce that sealing applies only to
current->mm, and streamlines overall logic and comments with no
functional changes intended.
- The 4 patch series "mm/vmscan: fix swappiness=max and clean up
per-node proactive reclaim" from Ridong Chen resolves reclaim behavior
bugs and cleans up function parameters across memory reclaim paths.
It fixes swappiness=max in both standard reclaim and MGLRU so
unswappable anonymous memory no longer falls back to evicting page
cache, ensures reclaim_store() returns accurate error codes instead of
collapsing all failures into -EAGAIN, and removes the obsolete gfp_mask
parameter from __node_reclaim().
- The 6 patch series "mm: mincore: misc cleanups" from Kefeng Wang
cleans up and simplifies the mincore code. Most importantly, it removes
the historical special behavior that always reports VM_PFNMAP pages as
non-resident.
- The 2 patch series "mm/huge_memory: drop dead split helper variants"
from Kiryl Shutsemau implements two trivial cleanups in the folio split
API.
- The 7 patch series "mm/damon: fix uninitialized DAMOS field and kunit
exec expectation bugs" from SJ Park resolves minor operational and
testing bugs in DAMON identified by Sashiko. It initializes the
damos->last_applied field to prevent occasional efficiency degradation
and fixes invalid memory accesses in DAMON KUnit tests during test
failure handling.
- The 3 patch series "cleanup for stable_page_flags()" from Jinjiang Tu
cleans up and refactors stable_page_flags() used by /proc/kpageflags
without altering functionality.
It uses BIT_ULL() to prevent shift-overflow warnings on 64-bit flag
bits, converts folio-specific flag checks to standard folio_test_*()
helpers, and removes redundant CONFIG_PAGE_IDLE_FLAG handling.
- The 3 patch series "Batch unmap of uffd-wp file folios" from Dev Jain
extends batched folio unmapping support to file folios within
userfaultfd write-protect (uffd-wp) VMAs by adding batching capabilities
to pte_install_uffd_wp_if_needed().
This removes special-case restrictions on uffd-wp VMAs in
try_to_unmap_one(), significantly simplifying the function's control
flow and complexity.
- The 3 patch series "mm/early_ioremap: clarify and clean up
early_ioremap_reset()" from Sang-Heon Jeon clarifies and cleans up the
architecture-specific usage of __late_set_fixmap() and
__late_clear_fixmap() after early_ioremap_reset().
It adds explicit documentation regarding when early_ioremap_reset()
must be called and removes redundant macro definitions and reset calls
in the RISC-V and ARM64 architectures.
- The 4 patch series "mm: fix reclaim storms in defrag_mode" from
Johannes Weiner addresses severe performance regressions, swap storms,
and spurious OOMs caused by vm.defrag_mode=1 under high memory pressure
in Meta production.
It updates the page allocator slowpath so non-movable allocation
requests actively trigger direct reclaim and direct compaction at
pageblock_order scale, allowing them to claim whole pageblocks rather
than spinning unproductively.
- The 2 patch series "zram: lockmap tweaks" from Sebastian Siewior
optimizes and fixes lockdep tracking for zram devices by consolidating
per-entry lockmaps and isolating lock classes across multiple instances.
It reduces memory overhead by replacing per-entry lockdep_map instances
with a single map per struct zram, and assigns a dynamic lock_class_key
to each instance to prevent false deadlock reports when different zram
devices are backed by distinct filesystems.

- "memcg: bail out reclaim when memcg is dying" (Jiayuan Chen)
Mitigate a system-wide stall which occurs when a cgroup is removed
while one of its memory control files is doing synchronous reclaim
- "mm/memory-failure: add panic option for unrecoverable pages" (Breno
Leitao)
Introduce an opt-in vm.panic_on_unrecoverable_memory_failure sysctl
that immediately panics the kernel on unrecoverable memory errors in
kernel-owned pages to preserve error context and prevent delayed,
silent data corruption
- "mm/damon: refactor damon_{start,stop,commit}() for simple error
handling" (SJ Park)
Refactor the DAMON core API functions to guarantee that all contexts
are fully stopped when damon_start(), damon_stop(), or damon_commit()
fail, eliminating the need for complex and error-prone caller-side
cleanup code
- "Keep tail page private zero at free and folio split" (Zi Yan)
Add checks to ensure tail_page->private is zero when freeing compound
or high-order pages and when promoting tail pages during large folio
splits. By validating these fields at free and split time, it allows
the removal of redundant private field clearing inside
prep_compound_tail()
- "mm: drop redundant lru_add_drain in anon folio reuse paths" (Barry
Song)
Eliminate redundant lru_add_drain() calls in
wp_can_reuse_anon_folio() and do_swap_page() to reduce LRU lock
contention and system overhead
By validating folio refcounts against the LRU cache before draining
and removing unnecessary drains in the swap path, it achieves up to a
30.5% reduction in drain calls during heavy swap workloads
- "mm: clean up folio LRU and swap declarations" (Jianyue Wu)
Reorganize folio LRU and swap code by relocating page-cluster state
to mm/swap_state.c, renaming mm/swap.c to mm/folio.c, and moving
MM-internal reclaim declarations into mm/internal.h.
- "userfaultfd: working set tracking for VM guest memory" (Kiryl
Shutsemau)
Add userfaultfd support for tracking the working set of VM guest
memory, so a VMM can identify hot pages and reclaim cold ones to
tiered or remote storage
- "mm: remove CONFIG_HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE (Part 2)" (David
Hildenbrand)
Remove the remaining pieces of CONFIG_HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE,
performing some smaller cleanups around freeing of reserved vmemmap
pages on the way.
- "mm/damon: update probe hits for runtime parameter commits" (SJ Park)
Ensure that DAMON's probe_hits attribute counter is properly updated
when monitoring intervals are changed at runtime, matching the
behavior of nr_accesses. To achieve this, it refactors and renames
existing helper functions for shared use, applies the updates to
probe_hits, and handles edge cases in damon_probe_hits_mvsum() to
maintain measurement accuracy.
- "KSM: performance optimizations for rmap_walk_ksm" (xu xin)
Resolve a severe KSM reverse-mapping performance bottleneck where
thousands of split VMAs sharing a single anon_vma cause extended lock
contention.
By adding an interval-filtering check during the rmap walk, it
reduces worst-case anon_vma lock hold times from over 500ms down to
under 2ms, preventing application freezes and latency spikes under
memory pressure.
- "mm: split a couple of headers from internal.h" (Mike Rapoport)
Split declarations related to mm_init, memblock, vmalloc and sparse
into new headers
- "KSM: use linear_page_index in collect_procs_ksm()" (xu xin)
Apply the interval tree optimization from rmap_walk_ksm() to
collect_procs_ksm() to avoid iterating over non-matching VMAs during
KSM memory error handling.
It hoists loop-invariant address initialization and restricts the
anon_vma_interval_tree_foreach walk to a targeted page offset range,
reducing redundant checks and improving lookup efficiency.
- "selftests/mm: avoid false failures in hugetlb and KSM tests" (Sayali
Patil)
Fix issues in the hugetlb and KSM MM selftest categories that can
report failures when the prerequisites for the tests are not
satisfied
- "mm/damon: introduce data attributes only monitoring" (SJ Park)
Introduce attribute-weighted region management in DAMON, allowing
users to prioritize specific data attributes (such as page sizes or
cgroups) over or instead of access monitoring.
By assigning weights to attribute probes, DAMON can completely
disable access tracking and adjust monitoring regions based on
weighted probe-hit counters to optimize monitoring quality for
attribute-focused workloads.
- "mm/hmm: Add mmap lock-drop support for userfaultfd-backed mappings"
(Stanislav Kinsburskii)
Extend hmm_range_fault() to support userfaultfd-backed regions by
allowing the mmap lock to be dropped during fault handling via a new
hmm_range_fault_locked() helper.
By accepting a locked pointer and signaling retry status when lock
release occurs, it enables page fault resolution in userfaultfd
regions while preserving backward compatibility for existing callers.
- "mm: make VMA page offset handling more consistent" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
Clean up and standardize how vma->vm_pgoff is accessed and
manipulated across file-backed and anonymous mappings in the kernel
It introduces dedicated helper functions such as vma_start_pgoff(),
vma_end_pgoff(), vma_set_pgoff() and linear_page_delta() while
renaming rmap interval tree helpers to better reflect their
functionality.
These changes establish a cleaner foundation for future work that
will unify virtual page offset indexing for all anonymous and CoW'd
folios.
- "mm: handle device-private PMDs in walk callbacks" (Usama Arif)
Address kernel panics and state corruption caused by MM walk
callbacks reaching non-present device-private PMD swap entries
created during HMM migrations
It ensures that functions which acquire pmd_trans_huge_lock()
properly recognize device-private PMDs instead of assuming a present
THP or a standard migration entry.
- "mm/rmap: Refactor try_to_unmap_one" (Dev Jain)
Refactor try_to_unmap_one by modularizing Hugetlb,
anonymous-lazyfree, and anonymous-swapbacked logic into dedicated
functions, laying the structural groundwork for batched anonymous
large folio unmapping.
- "Docs/ABI/damon: sysfs ABI document fixes and additions" (Song Hu)
Fix typos and fills in missing entries in the DAMON sysfs ABI
document
- "dax/kmem: atomic whole-device hotplug via sysfs" (Gregory Price)
Introduce an atomic sysfs state attribute and supporting DAX/MM
infrastructure to prevent userland races when offlining and removing
entire memory regions
By adding an unplugged state alongside standard online modes, it
enables whole-device atomic hotplug control while preserving backward
compatibility.
- "mm: convert more vm_flags_t users to vma_flags_t" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
Continue transitioning the kernel from the deprecated vm_flags_t type
to vma_flags_t across core memory management infrastructure.
It replaces legacy type usage in core functions such as do_mmap(),
unmapped area allocation, mm->def_vma_flags, and VMA operations like
mlock, mprotect, and mremap.
- "Two small patches to clean up mm/mm_slot.h" (xu xin)
Refactor mm_slot.h by introducing mm_slot_remove() to unify duplicate
slot deletion sequences in khugepaged and KSM. It also adds code
documentation explaining why mm_slot_lookup and mm_slot_insert must
remain as preprocessor macros rather than static inline functions.
- "mm/damon/core: hide core-private struct fields" (SJ Park)
Clean up DAMON core structures by consistently marking internal-only
fields with private: comment tags to prevent improper direct access
from outer layers.
It enforces encapsulation across core structures including
damon_region, damon_target, and damon_ctx and updates DAMON_SYSFS to
interact through approved access APIs instead of exposing raw struct
members.
- "mm/damon: unurgent fixes for infinite loop, NULL de-ref and races"
(SJ Park)
Address potential infinite loops, NULL dereferences, and race
conditions identified in DAMON
It fixes an infinite loop triggered by extreme user configurations, a
NULL pointer dereference within unit tests and minor monitoring
accuracy degradation caused by subtle runtime races.
- "mm/page_alloc: fixes for free_pages_nolock() on RT/UP" (Brendan
Jackman)
Fix an NMI safety flaw in __free_frozen_pages() where freeing pages
on non-SMP or PREEMPT_RT kernels can bypass can_spin_trylock() checks
via non-PCP or isolated migration paths.
It also resolves potential kernel crashes and privilege escalation
risks triggered when BPF tracing runs in NMI context alongside memory
hotplug or large allocation frees.
- "mm/page_alloc: couple of followups for recent cleanups" (Brendan
Jackman)
Clean up and update page allocator nomenclature, documentation, and
debug assertions.
It aligns internal FPI_ flags with the public "nolock" naming
convention, removes outdated internal implementation details from
high-level page allocator comments, and eliminates obsolete
VM_BUG_ON() assertions in allocation paths.
- "mm/mseal: further cleanups" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
Refactor and simplify the mseal implementation by clarifying API
boundaries and removing unnecessary code complexity.
It replaces generic do_mseal() usage outside the syscall with a
dedicated mseal_mmap_page_zero() helper for MMAP_PAGE_ZERO,
eliminates mm_struct parameters to enforce that sealing applies only
to current->mm, and streamlines overall logic and comments with no
functional changes intended.
- "mm/vmscan: fix swappiness=max and clean up per-node proactive
reclaim" (Ridong Chen)
Resolve reclaim behavior bugs and clean up function parameters across
memory reclaim paths
It fixes swappiness=max in both standard reclaim and MGLRU so
unswappable anonymous memory no longer falls back to evicting page
cache, ensures reclaim_store() returns accurate error codes instead
of collapsing all failures into -EAGAIN, and removes the obsolete
gfp_mask parameter from __node_reclaim().
- "mm: mincore: misc cleanups" (Kefeng Wang)
Clean up and simplifies the mincore code. Most importantly, it
removes the historical special behavior that always reports VM_PFNMAP
pages as non-resident.
- "mm/huge_memory: drop dead split helper variants" (Kiryl Shutsemau)
Two trivial cleanups in the folio split API
- "mm/damon: fix uninitialized DAMOS field and kunit exec expectation
bugs" (SJ Park)
Resolve minor operational and testing bugs in DAMON identified by
Sashiko. It initializes the damos->last_applied field to prevent
occasional efficiency degradation and fixes invalid memory accesses
in DAMON KUnit tests during test failure handling.
- "cleanup for stable_page_flags()" (Jinjiang Tu)
Clean up and refactor stable_page_flags() used by /proc/kpageflags
without altering functionality.
It uses BIT_ULL() to prevent shift-overflow warnings on 64-bit flag
bits, converts folio-specific flag checks to standard folio_test_*()
helpers, and removes redundant CONFIG_PAGE_IDLE_FLAG handling.
- "Batch unmap of uffd-wp file folios" (Dev Jain)
Extend batched folio unmapping support to file folios within
userfaultfd write-protect (uffd-wp) VMAs by adding batching
capabilities to pte_install_uffd_wp_if_needed().
This removes special-case restrictions on uffd-wp VMAs in
try_to_unmap_one(), significantly simplifying the function's control
flow and complexity.
- "mm/early_ioremap: clarify and clean up early_ioremap_reset()"
(Sang-Heon Jeon)
Clarify and clean up the architecture-specific usage of
__late_set_fixmap() and __late_clear_fixmap() after
early_ioremap_reset()
It adds explicit documentation regarding when early_ioremap_reset()
must be called and removes redundant macro definitions and reset
calls in the RISC-V and ARM64 architectures.
- "mm: fix reclaim storms in defrag_mode" (Johannes Weiner)
Address severe performance regressions, swap storms, and spurious
OOMs caused by vm.defrag_mode=1 under high memory pressure in Meta
production
It updates the page allocator slowpath so non-movable allocation
requests actively trigger direct reclaim and direct compaction at
pageblock_order scale, allowing them to claim whole pageblocks rather
than spinning unproductively.
- "zram: lockmap tweaks" (Sebastian Siewior)
Optimize and fix lockdep tracking for zram devices by consolidating
per-entry lockmaps and isolate lock classes across multiple instances
This reduces memory overhead by replacing per-entry lockdep_map
instances with a single map per struct zram, and assigns a dynamic
lock_class_key to each instance to prevent false deadlock reports
when different zram devices are backed by distinct filesystems.

Generic entry code updates:
- Make syscall user dispatching configurable
Not all architectures can makes use of syscall user dispatching. Allow
them to disable the feature completely.
- Consolidate stack randomization for the generic entry code and the
architectures using it.
Stack randomization on syscall entry was sprinkled throughout the
architecture specific low level entry code and in some cases at the
wrong points, e.g. before establishing state, which violates the
non-instrumentable constraints of that code.
Clean this up by integrating stack randomization into the generic entry
code helpers so that it is invoked at the earliest possible point right
after establishing state and converting all generic entry code using
architecture over.
- Clean up the syscall number handling in the generic entry code. It
works correctly for architectures which have a separate return value
storage in pt_regs, but fails to distinguish the case where user space
handed in -1 as syscall number from the case where the entry code
rejects it by returning -1 to the callers. Aside of that the return
value functionality of those interfaces is not really intuitive.
Fix this by separating the decision to reject a syscall (user dispatch,
ptrace, seccomp ...) from the potential modification of the syscall
number through these mechanisms.
This solves most of the problems for architectures which do not have a
separate return value storage in pt_regs except for the case where a
tracepoint has a BPF script or a probe attached which overwrite both
the syscall number and the return value. But that's a problem which
cannot be solved in the generic code, that only can be addressed by
separating the storage model in the affected architectures.

LoongArch: BPF: Resolve per-CPU addrs for internal-only MOV
Add support for the internal-only BPF_MOV instruction that resolves the absolute addresses of the per-CPU data from their per-CPU offsets. This instruction is used only for internal inlining optimizations between the BPF verifier and the JITs (e.g. inlining bpf_get_smp_processor_id() and per-CPU map lookups). LoongArch keeps the per-CPU offset of the current CPU in $r21 register (a.k.a. __my_cpu_offset), so resolving a per-CPU address only requires adding $r21 to the source register holding the per-CPU offset. Advertise the capability via bpf_jit_supports_percpu_insn().

LoongArch: BPF: Align value-returning atomics with LKMM
Per the Linux Kernel Memory Model, value-returning atomic RMW operations
must provide sequentially consistent ordering (a full memory barrier).
On LoongArch, plain AMO instructions and bare ll/sc loops do not satisfy
this requirement by themselves.
Update emit_atomic_rmw() to emit barrier-carrying instructions for all
value-returning BPF atomics:
- BPF_FETCH (ADD/AND/OR/XOR): use am*_db.{b,h,w,d}
- BPF_XCHG: use amswap_db.{b,h,w,d}
- BPF_CMPXCHG: emit dbar 0x700 after the ll/sc loop, matching
__WEAK_LLSC_MB in cmpxchg.h
Add the corresponding instruction encodings and emit helpers to inst.h.
Non-value-returning RMW ops (plain BPF_ADD, BPF_AND, etc.) are left as
weakly ordered, consistent with LKMM.

LoongArch: BPF: Implement branchless conditional move for TCC
The current implementation handles combined bpf2bpf and tail calls by checking at runtime whether REG_TCC holds a scalar count or a pointer address via a conditional jump. This adds branch prediction overhead in the hot path of tail call execution. To implement branchless conditional move, use an unsigned comparison (sltui) combined with mask instructions (maskeqz/masknez) to achieve branchless classification and blending of incoming scalar counts and kernel pointers in REG_TCC. This optimization refactors the inner logic of the helper function, unifies the offset decrement at the function entry, and removes all runtime branching from the prologue hot path completely.

LoongArch: Use current_stack_pointer in current_pt_regs()
The current implementation of current_pt_regs() relies on the compiler __builtin_frame_address(0). This introduces an unnecessary dependency on the frame pointer register, which forces the compiler to generate redundant prologue and epilogue code, create a larger stack frame, and perform redundant memory operations to preserve the frame pointer even in functions where it is otherwise unnecessary. Optimize this by switching to current_stack_pointer, which explicitly maps to the hardware stack pointer register. This allows the compiler to compute the stack alignment directly from the natively maintained "$sp" register, completely eliminating the overhead of preserving and restoring the frame pointer on the stack memory. As a prominent example, this optimization improves the hot-path function copy_thread(). A disassembly comparison of copy_thread() illustrates the elimination of the frame pointer, the reduction of stack frame size from 48 bytes down to 32 bytes, and a more compact epilogue path: Before: 00000000000004f0 <copy_thread>: 4f0: 02ff4063 addi.d $sp, $sp, -48 4f4: 29c08076 st.d $fp, $sp, 32 4f8: 29c06077 st.d $s0, $sp, 24 4fc: 29c0a061 st.d $ra, $sp, 40 500: 02c0c076 addi.d $fp, $sp, 48 ... 54c: 1400006e lu12i.w $t2, 3 ... 55c: 03bffdce ori $t2, $t2, 0xfff 560: 00153ace or $t2, $fp, $t2 564: 02fb05cd addi.d $t1, $t2, -319 ... 628: 28c0a061 ld.d $ra, $sp, 40 62c: 28c08076 ld.d $fp, $sp, 32 630: 28c06077 ld.d $s0, $sp, 24 634: 00150004 move $a0, $zero 638: 02c0c063 addi.d $sp, $sp, 48 63c: 4c000020 ret After: 00000000000004f0 <copy_thread>: 4f0: 02ff8063 addi.d $sp, $sp, -32 4f4: 29c04077 st.d $s0, $sp, 16 4f8: 29c06061 st.d $ra, $sp, 24 [ prologue st.d and addi.d for $fp are completely eliminated ] ... 544: 1400006e lu12i.w $t2, 3 ... 554: 03bffdce ori $t2, $t2, 0xfff 558: 0015386e or $t2, $sp, $t2 55c: 02fb05cd addi.d $t1, $t2, -319 ... 620: 28c06061 ld.d $ra, $sp, 24 624: 28c04077 ld.d $s0, $sp, 16 628: 00150004 move $a0, $zero [ epilogue ld.d for $fp is eliminated; exit path is shortened ] 62c: 02c08063 addi.d $sp, $sp, 32 630: 4c000020 ret Signed-off-by: Tiezhu Yang <yangtiezhu@loongson.cn> Signed-off-by: Huacai Chen <chenhuacai@loongson.cn> |

LoongArch: Expand module virtual address space to 2GB
The current 256MB module virtual address space is easily exhausted when loading massive graphics drivers such as amdgpu along with the large unstripped symbol tables, resulting in allocation failures of "execmem: unable to allocate memory". Thus, expand the module virtual address space to 2GB while keeping the current normal code model '-mcmodel=normal', rather than using the medium code model '-mcmodel=medium'. This approach avoids the extra performance overhead and larger binary size of forcing every function call into a 2-instruction sequence of 'pcaddu18i + jirl'. Given that individual module code segments rarely exceed 128MB, most jumps remain fast direct calls by using the bl instruction. For the long-distance jumps exceeding the +/-128MB limit, apply_r_larch_b26() emits PLT entries, while signed_imm_check() guarantees the run-time safety by rejecting any out-of-bound instruction offsets. There is still a risk that the distance between .init.text and .text of the same module exceeds 128MB. So we divide the 2GB virtual space to be two sub-regions: the first 256MB is for module text, and the rest is for module data.

LoongArch: Add DIRECT_MAP_PHYSMEM_END definition
get_free_mem_region() and mhp_get_pluggable_range() bound their search to DIRECT_MAP_PHYSMEM_END. LoongArch does not define it, so the fallback in include/linux/mm.h applies: under CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP it is (1ULL << MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS) - 1, a compile-time constant that does not adapt to the CPU's physical address space bits (cpu_pabits, probed from CPUCFG1). The vmemmap window only covers physical space below 2^(cpu_pabits+1) (i.e. VMEMMAP_SIZE), so on CPUs with fewer physical address bits than MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS the fallback allows get_free_mem_region() to return a ZONE_DEVICE region outside the vmemmap window; vmemmap_populate() then wraps the memmap range around and maps it into low memory, silently corrupting the page tables. The same search also picked the top-of- address-space region that crashed memmap_init_zone_device() with amdkfd on Loongson-3C6000 in 6.16 [1]; the commit |

mm: decouple protnone helpers from CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING
Patch series "userfaultfd: working set tracking for VM guest memory", v10. This series adds userfaultfd support for tracking the working set of VM guest memory, so a VMM can identify hot pages and reclaim cold ones to tiered or remote storage. This patch (of 15): pte_protnone() and pmd_protnone() detect present-but-inaccessible page table entries. This capability is useful beyond NUMA balancing -- for example, userfaultfd working set tracking uses protnone PTEs to track page access without unmapping pages. Introduce CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_PTE_PROTNONE to decouple the protnone PTE infrastructure from CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING. The six architectures that support protnone PTEs (x86_64, arm64, powerpc, s390, riscv, loongarch) now select this option, and CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING depends on it. No functional change -- the same set of architectures continues to have working protnone support, but the infrastructure is now available independently of NUMA balancing.

LoongArch: Fix missing dirty page tracking in {pte,pmd}_wrprotect()
When hardware page table walker (PTW) is enabled on LoongArch, the CPU
may set _PAGE_DIRTY directly in the page table entry during a write TLB
miss, without going through the software TLB store handler. The software
TLB store handler (tlbex.S:254) sets both _PAGE_DIRTY and_PAGE_MODIFIED
together:
ori t0, t0, (_PAGE_VALID | _PAGE_DIRTY | _PAGE_MODIFIED)
Since hardware PTW only sets _PAGE_DIRTY, the software-only bit, i.e.
_PAGE_MODIFIED is left unchanged. This creates a window where a PTE has
_PAGE_DIRTY set (hardware knows the page is dirty) but _PAGE_MODIFIED
clear (software is unaware).
When fork()/clone() triggers copy-on-write, __copy_present_ptes() calls
pte_wrprotect(), which unconditionally clears both the _PAGE_WRITE and
_PAGE_DIRTY bits:
pte_val(pte) &= ~(_PAGE_WRITE | _PAGE_DIRTY);
Since _PAGE_MODIFIED was never set, the dirtiness information is lost
completely. Subsequently, when memory pressure triggers page reclaim,
page_mkclean() / try_to_unmap() sees the page as clean (i.e. pte_dirty()
returns false) and the page may be freed without writeback, causing data
corruption.
Fix this by propagating the _PAGE_DIRTY bit to the _PAGE_MODIFIED bit in
both pte_wrprotect() and pmd_wrprotect() before clearing writeable bits:
if (pte_val(pte) & _PAGE_DIRTY)
pte_val(pte) |= _PAGE_MODIFIED;
The pmd_wrprotect() fix handles the CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE case,
where pmd entries need the same treatment.
This ensures the software dirty tracking bit (checked by pte_dirty() and
pmd_dirty(), which read both the _PAGE_DIRTY and _PAGE_MODIFIED bits) is
preserved across fork COW write-protection.
The issue was found by the LTP madvise09 test case, which exercises page
reclaim after "madvise(MADV_FREE), write and fork" operation sequence on
private anonymous mappings.

LoongArch: Add PIO for early access before ACPI PCI root register
For ACPI system we suppose the ISA/LPC PIO range is registered together with PCI root bridge. But the fact is there may be some early access to the ISA/LPC PIO range before ACPI PCI root register (most of them are due to abnormal BIOS). Unconditionally register the ISA/LPC PIO range usually causes ACPI PCI root register fail because of the address range confliction. So we add a pair of helpers: acpi_add_early_pio() to add PIO for early access, and acpi_remove_early_pio() to remove PIO before PCI root register. Since acpi_remove_early_pio() may be called multiple times, we add an acpi_pio flag to ensure PIO be removed only once.

LoongArch: Add THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK implementation
Like other architectures such as x86, arm64, riscv, powerpc and s390, select THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK for LoongArch to move thread_info off the stack into task_struct. This follows modern kernel standards and also makes the system more secure. With this patch, thread_info is included in task_struct at an offset of 0 instead of being placed at the bottom of the kernel stack. Thus, the $tp register points to both thread_info and task_struct. To support this, introduce a per-CPU variable cpu_tasks to store the pointer to the current task_struct. This decouples the recovery of the $tp register from the stack pointer during exception entry. Then initialize cpu_tasks for the primary and secondary CPUs during arch-specific setup and SMP boot paths. To eliminate the dangerous windows during the early initialization where the cpu_tasks remains uninitialized, set_current() is invoked as early as possible in both setup_arch() and start_secondary(). This ensures the $tp recovery barrier is armed in case any early boot exceptions or kernel panics occur. Modify SAVE_SOME and handle_syscall to restore the $tp register from cpu_tasks, and also use the la_abs absolute addressing for cpu_tasks access in assembly to bypass the relocation limits within exception handling sections. By advancing the preservation of u0 in SAVE_SOME, we reuse the PERCPU_BASE_KS value in u0 for the cpu_tasks calculation, effectively eliminating a duplicate csrrd instruction execution on SMP platforms. Update <asm/switch_to.h> and <kernel/switch.S> to fully support the CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK feature. Remove the obsolete next_ti argument from __switch_to(), which shifts the remaining arguments ahead in the calling convention (sched_ra from a3 to a2, and sched_cfa from a4 to a3). Under the new configuration, __switch_to() now directly derives the thread pointer ($tp) from the next task_struct pointer in a1. To preserve the optimal and clean "move tp, a1" path for 64-bit kernels, the thread pointer ($tp) is assigned directly from a1 in the core path. For 32-bit kernels, where a1 carries a 2000-byte structural pointer bias at entry, an explicit adjustment "PTR_ADDI tp, tp, -TASK_STRUCT_OFFSET" is introduced at the function exit. In the context of __switch_to(), local interrupts are disabled, and the kernel is in a critical switching phase where handling any synchronous exception is practically impossible and prohibited. If any synchronous exception or watchpoint does trigger in this narrow window, it constitutes a fatal double fault and the kernel is expected to die/panic immediately anyway. Therefore, the temporary biased value in $tp is safe and acceptable here. Additionally, evaluate the stack lookup as a single load instruction "LONG_LPTR t0, a1, (TASK_STACK - TASK_STRUCT_OFFSET)", this perfectly satisfies both 32-bit and 64-bit kernels. Using the "next" pointer in a1 as the base register, rather than $tp, effectively unchains the data dependency (RAW hazard) from the preceding move instruction, maximizing the instruction-level parallelism and superscalar execution efficiency while naturally adapting the structural shift. With CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK enabled, the kernel stack life cycle is decoupled from task_struct and can be freed concurrently. Currently, show_stacktrace() reads raw stack data via __get_addr() and subsequently calls show_backtrace() to unwind the frame, without holding any reference to the target task's stack. If show_stacktrace() is called on a concurrently exiting task, it could attempt to read from a freed or reallocated kernel stack. This introduces a severe use-after-free (UAF) read risk or kernel panics. Wrap the entire stack inspection process inside show_stacktrace() with a try_get_task_stack() and put_task_stack() pair. This ensures the task stack remains pinned safely during both the raw stack data dump loop and the subsequent stack unwinding phase. Also, ensure that the task pointer is initialized to "current" early if it is NULL, so that try_get_task_stack() always operates on a valid task reference.

There are different structures with FPU and LBT register restore, with FPU the structure is vcpu::arch::fpu, with LBT the structure is vcpu:: arch::lbt. Moreover, FPU/LSX/LASX saving and restoring share the common structure vcpu::arch::fpu. New request bit KVM_REQ_LBT_LOAD is used for LBT register restore, and rename KVM_REQ_AUX_LOAD with KVM_REQ_FPU_LOAD for FPU register restore.

uaccess: unify inline vs outline copy_{from,to}_user() selection
The kernel allows arches to select between inline and outline
implementations of the copy_{from,to}_user() by defining individual
INLINE_COPY_FROM_USER and INLINE_COPY_TO_USER, correspondingly. However,
all arches enable or disable them always together.
Without the real use-case for one helper being inlined while the other
outlined, having independent controls is excessive and error prone.
Switch the codebase to the single unified INLINE_COPY_USER control.

Some variables relative with paravirt feature are declared in the header
file asm/qspinlock.h, however this file can be included only when option
CONFIG_SMP is on. There is compiling warnings if CONFIG_SMP is off since
variables are not declared.
Move these variable declarations to header file asm/paravirt.h to avoid

efi/loongarch: Randomize kernel preferred address for KASLR
Introduce efi_get_kimg_kaslr_address() helper to compute the preferred kernel image load address dynamically when CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE is enabled. The function derives a random offset by using the EFI-provided randomness combined with the timer tick value, and constrains it within CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE_MAX_OFFSET. Update EFI_KIMG_PREFERRED_ADDRESS to call this helper so that the EFI stub can select a randomized load address when KASLR is active, while preserving the original base address behavior when KASLR is disabled or "nokaslr" is specified. Note: LoongArch can't KASLR for hibernation, so set efi_nokaslr to true if "resume=<devname>" is explicitly specified in cmdline.

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

LoongArch: KVM: Compile switch.S directly into the kernel
If we directly compile the switch.S file into the kernel, the address of the kvm_exc_entry function will definitely be within the DMW memory area. Therefore, we will no longer need to perform a copy relocation of the kvm_exc_entry. So this patch compiles switch.S directly into the kernel, and then remove the copy relocation execution logic for the kvm_exc_entry function.

The 8 and 16 bit read-modify-write atomic instructions amadd.{b/h} and
amswap.{b/h} were newly added in the latest LoongArch Reference Manual,
define the instruction format and check whether support via CPUCFG.
Furthermore, define the instruction format for DBAR which will be used
to support BPF load-acquire and store-release instructions.
This is preparation for later patches.

Add HIGHMEM (High Memory) support for LoongArch, mostly needed by 32BIT kernel because the size of kernel virtual memory space is only 512MB and the size of usable physical memory is only 256MB in this case. HIGHMEM adds permanent kernel mapping (PKMAP) and fixed kernel mapping (FIX_KMAP), which increase usable physical memory up to 2.25GB (2304MB). We can just use the generic copy_user_highpage(), so remove the custom version. Signed-off-by: Huacai Chen <chenhuacai@loongson.cn> |

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. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQFIBAABCAAyFiEE8TM4V0tmI4mGbHaCv/vSX3jHroMFAmnftRQUHHBib256aW5p QHJlZGhhdC5jb20ACgkQv/vSX3jHroPAzwf+NKO4Ktv+7A22ImN0SBl0nlUuulsz vTcw3+hxdRoIw83GdNS+hG5js0wrpMDnbv3t4+VliDNBSSxrBzcSWX2wpilW0Xtw qGo1MWhs2lKPy1NlaRVOwPS6j7uF3AR0TQ1iQLGMedQuCU9WpiKJxyhNXJdbLrt3 8EgFzsvtEsv+jKNRUNDf9+d0j4gZsFyIe+Brhianbw+u3/UCiUClLCdsKPc4+5ZX 08otYXytacGNIf/5Ev1vT4pHkHL0yqKXAtX7LEtaS3+0KrPuLjV4slemivzE9vf5 Evafm5AhA4wpaNMb1ZerhY3T94lsMaJpWxotjR//0Q7C9B59pCQnXCm8mg== =CcE0 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini: "Arm: - Add support for tracing in the standalone EL2 hypervisor code, which should help both debugging and performance analysis.

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" * tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm: (373 commits) KVM: x86: use inlines instead of macros for is_sev_*guest x86/virt: Treat SVM as unsupported when running as an SEV+ guest KVM: SEV: Goto an existing error label if charging misc_cg for an ASID fails KVM: SVM: Move lock-protected allocation of SEV ASID into a separate helper KVM: SEV: use mutex guard in snp_handle_guest_req() KVM: SEV: use mutex guard in sev_mem_enc_unregister_region() KVM: SEV: use mutex guard in sev_mem_enc_ioctl() KVM: SEV: use mutex guard in snp_launch_update() KVM: SEV: Assert that kvm->lock is held when querying SEV+ support KVM: SEV: Document that checking for SEV+ guests when reclaiming memory is "safe" KVM: SEV: Hide "struct kvm_sev_info" behind CONFIG_KVM_AMD_SEV=y KVM: SEV: WARN on unhandled VM type when initializing VM KVM: LoongArch: selftests: Add PMU overflow interrupt test KVM: LoongArch: selftests: Add basic PMU event counting test KVM: LoongArch: selftests: Add cpucfg read/write helpers LoongArch: KVM: Add DMSINTC inject msi to vCPU LoongArch: KVM: Add DMSINTC device support LoongArch: KVM: Make vcpu_is_preempted() as a macro rather than function LoongArch: KVM: Move host CSR_GSTAT save and restore in context switch LoongArch: KVM: Move host CSR_EENTRY save and restore in context switch ... |

mm.git review status for linus..mm-nonmm-stable
Total patches: 126
Reviews/patch: 0.92
Reviewed rate: 76%
- 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!)

Update for the core interrupt subsystem:
- Invoke add_interrupt_randomness() in handle_percpu_devid_irq() and
cleanup the workaround in the Hyper-V driver, which would now invoke
it twice on ARM64. Removing it from the driver requires to add it to
the x86 system vector entry point.
- Remove the pointles cpu_read_lock() around reading CPU possible mask,
which is read only after init.
- Add documentation for the interaction between device tree bindings and
the interrupt type defines in irq.h.
- Delete stale defines in the matrix allocator and the equivalent in
loongarch.

LoongArch: KVM: Make vcpu_is_preempted() as a macro rather than function
vcpu_is_preempted() is performance sensitive that called in function
osq_lock(), here make it as a macro. So that parameter is not parsed
at most time, it can avoid cache line thrashing across numa nodes.
Here is part of UnixBench result on Loongson-3C5000 DualWay machine with
32 cores and 2 numa nodes.
original inline macro
execl 7025.7 6991.2 7242.3
fstime 474.6 703.1 1071
From the test result, making vcpu_is_preempted() as a macro is the best,
and there is some improvment compared with the original function method.
