a494d3c8d5 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.

3dd31a370c parisc: Drop ip_fast_csum() inline assembly implementation 
The assembly code of ip_fast_csum() triggers unaligned access warnings
if the IP header isn't correctly aligned:

 Kernel: unaligned access to 0x173d22e76 in inet_gro_receive+0xbc/0x2e8 (iir 0x0e8810b6)
 Kernel: unaligned access to 0x173d22e7e in inet_gro_receive+0xc4/0x2e8 (iir 0x0e88109a)
 Kernel: unaligned access to 0x173d22e82 in inet_gro_receive+0xc8/0x2e8 (iir 0x0e90109d)
 Kernel: unaligned access to 0x173d22e7a in inet_gro_receive+0xd0/0x2e8 (iir 0x0e9810b8)
 Kernel: unaligned access to 0x173d22e86 in inet_gro_receive+0xdc/0x2e8 (iir 0x0e8810b8)

We have the option to a) ignore the warnings, b) work around it by
adding more code to check for alignment, or c) to switch to the generic
implementation and rely on the compiler to optimize the code.

Let's go with c), because a) isn't nice, and b) would effectively lead
to an implementation which is basically equal to c).

06c4dfa3ce mm: change to return bool for ptep_clear_flush_young()/clear_flush_young_ptes() 
The ptep_clear_flush_young() and clear_flush_young_ptes() are used to
clear the young flag and flush the TLB, returning whether the young flag
was set.  Change the return type to bool to make the intention clearer.

a62ca3f40f mm: change to return bool for ptep_test_and_clear_young() 
Patch series "change young flag check functions to return bool", v2.

This is a cleanup patchset to change all young flag check functions to
return bool, as discussed with David in the previous thread[1].  Since
callers only care about whether the young flag was set, returning bool
makes the intention clearer.  No functional changes intended.


This patch (of 6):

Callers use ptep_test_and_clear_young() to clear the young flag and check
whether it was set.  Change the return type to bool to make the intention
clearer.

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 :)

0b3b90a0f9 parisc: Add PDC PAT call to get free running 64-bit counter 
PDC PAT defines this optional function. Testing on my C8000 workstation
and a rp3440 server did not indicate that they provide such counter.
Nevertheless, add the function since we should try to use such a
counter if it's available. In Qemu it should be simple to add it.

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.

75b51437a4 parisc: Drop linux/kernel.h include from asm/bug.h header 
While working on an unrelated patch series, I needed to include
linux/bug.h from linux/instrumented.h, in order to call WARN_ON_ONCE().

Doing so resulted in the following compiler error on parisc:

In file included from ./include/linux/atomic/atomic-instrumented.h:17,
                 from ./include/linux/atomic.h:82,
                 from ./arch/parisc/include/asm/bitops.h:13,
                 from ./include/linux/bitops.h:67,
                 from ./include/linux/kernel.h:23,
                 from ./arch/parisc/include/asm/bug.h:5,
                 from ./include/linux/bug.h:5,
                 from ./include/linux/page-flags.h:10,
                 from kernel/bounds.c:10:
./include/linux/instrumented.h: In function 'instrument_atomic_alignment_check':
./include/linux/instrumented.h:69:9: error: implicit declaration of function 'WARN_ON_ONCE' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
   69 |         WARN_ON_ONCE((unsigned long)v & (size - 1));
      |         ^~~~~~~~~~~~
cc1: some warnings being treated as errors
make[3]: *** [scripts/Makefile.build:182: kernel/bounds.s] Error 1

The problem is, asm/bug.h indirectly includes atomic-instrumented.h,
which means a new cycle appeared in the graph of #includes. And because
some headers in the cycle can't see all definitions, my new WARN_ON_ONCE()
call appears to be an undeclared function.

This only happens on parisc and it's easy to fix. In the error
message above, linux/kernel.h is included by asm/bug.h, but it's no
longer needed there, so just remove that include.

The comment about needing BUGFLAG_TAINT seems to be incorrect as of
commit 19d436268d ("debug: Add _ONCE() logic to report_bug()"). Also,
there's a comment in linux/kernel.h which strongly discourages use of
that header.

   falls to zero.
 
 - The 3 patch series "kho: fixes and cleanups" from Mike Rapoport adds a
   few touchups to the recently added Kexec Handover feature.
 
 - The 10 patch series "mm: make mm->flags a bitmap and 64-bit on all
   arches" from Lorenzo Stoakes turns mm_struct.flags into a bitmap.  To
   end the constant struggle with space shortage on 32-bit conflicting with
   64-bit's needs.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/swapfile.c and swap.h cleanup" from Chris Li
   cleans up some swap code.
 
 - The 7 patch series "selftests/mm: Fix false positives and skip
   unsupported tests" from Donet Tom fixes a few things in our selftests
   code.
 
 - The 7 patch series "prctl: extend PR_SET_THP_DISABLE to only provide
   THPs when advised" from David Hildenbrand "allows individual processes
   to opt-out of THP=always into THP=madvise, without affecting other
   workloads on the system".
 
   It's a long story - the [1/N] changelog spells out the considerations.
 
 - The 11 patch series "Add and use memdesc_flags_t" from Matthew Wilcox
   gets us started on the memdesc project.  Please see
   https://kernelnewbies.org/MatthewWilcox/Memdescs and
   https://blogs.oracle.com/linux/post/introducing-memdesc.

   fixes some UFFD selftests issues.
 
 - The 3 patch series "introduce kernel file mapped folios" from Boris
   Burkov introduces the concept of "kernel file pages".  Using these
   permits btrfs to account its metadata pages to the root cgroup, rather
   than to the cgroups of random inappropriate tasks.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/pageblock: improve readability of some
   pageblock handling" from Wei Yang provides some readability improvements
   to the page allocator code.
 
 - The 11 patch series "mm/damon: support ARM32 with LPAE" from SeongJae
   Park teaches DAMON to understand arm32 highmem.
 
 - The 4 patch series "tools: testing: Use existing atomic.h for
   vma/maple tests" from Brendan Jackman performs some code cleanups and
   deduplication under tools/testing/.
 
 - The 2 patch series "maple_tree: Fix testing for 32bit compiles" from
   Liam Howlett fixes a couple of 32-bit issues in
   tools/testing/radix-tree.c.
 
 - The 2 patch series "kasan: unify kasan_enabled() and remove
   arch-specific implementations" from Sabyrzhan Tasbolatov moves KASAN
   arch-specific initialization code into a common arch-neutral
   implementation.
 
 - The 3 patch series "mm: remove zpool" from Johannes Weiner removes
   zspool - an indirection layer which now only redirects to a single thing
   (zsmalloc).
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm: task_stack: Stack handling cleanups" from
   Pasha Tatashin makes a couple of cleanups in the fork code.
 
 - The 37 patch series "mm: remove nth_page()" from David Hildenbrand
   makes rather a lot of adjustments at various nth_page() callsites,
   eventually permitting the removal of that undesirable helper function.
 
 - The 2 patch series "introduce kasan.write_only option in hw-tags" from
   Yeoreum Yun creates a KASAN read-only mode for ARM, using that
   architecture's memory tagging feature.  It is felt that a read-only mode
   KASAN is suitable for use in production systems rather than debug-only.
 
 - The 3 patch series "mm: hugetlb: cleanup hugetlb folio allocation"
   from Kefeng Wang does some tidying in the hugetlb folio allocation code.
 
 - The 12 patch series "mm: establish const-correctness for pointer
   parameters" from Max Kellermann makes quite a number of the MM API
   functions more accurate about the constness of their arguments.  This
   was getting in the way of subsystems (in this case CEPH) when they
   attempt to improving their own const/non-const accuracy.
 
 - The 7 patch series "Cleanup free_pages() misuse" from Vishal Moola
   fixes a number of code sites which were confused over when to use
   free_pages() vs __free_pages().
 
 - The 3 patch series "Add Rust abstraction for Maple Trees" from Alice
   Ryhl makes the mapletree code accessible to Rust.  Required by nouveau
   and by its forthcoming successor: the new Rust Nova driver.
 
 - The 2 patch series "selftests/mm: split_huge_page_test:
   split_pte_mapped_thp improvements" from David Hildenbrand adds a fix and
   some cleanups to the thp selftesting code.
 
 - The 14 patch series "mm, swap: introduce swap table as swap cache
   (phase I)" from Chris Li and Kairui Song is the first step along the
   path to implementing "swap tables" - a new approach to swap allocation
   and state tracking which is expected to yield speed and space
   improvements.  This patchset itself yields a 5-20% performance benefit
   in some situations.
 
 - The 3 patch series "Some ptdesc cleanups" from Matthew Wilcox utilizes
   the new memdesc layer to clean up the ptdesc code a little.
 
 - The 3 patch series "Fix va_high_addr_switch.sh test failure" from
   Chunyu Hu fixes some issues in our 5-level pagetable selftesting code.
 
 - The 2 patch series "Minor fixes for memory allocation profiling" from
   Suren Baghdasaryan addresses a couple of minor issues in relatively new
   memory allocation profiling feature.
 
 - The 3 patch series "Small cleanups" from Matthew Wilcox has a few
   cleanups in preparation for more memdesc work.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/damon: add addr_unit for DAMON_LRU_SORT and
   DAMON_RECLAIM" from Quanmin Yan makes some changes to DAMON in
   furtherance of supporting arm highmem.
 
 - The 2 patch series "selftests/mm: Add -Wunreachable-code and fix
   warnings" from Muhammad Anjum adds that compiler check to selftests code
   and fixes the fallout, by removing dead code.
 
 - The 10 patch series "Improvements to Victim Process Thawing and OOM
   Reaper Traversal Order" from zhongjinji makes a number of improvements
   in the OOM killer: mainly thawing a more appropriate group of victim
   threads so they can release resources.
 
 - The 5 patch series "mm/damon: misc fixups and improvements for 6.18"
   from SeongJae Park is a bunch of small and unrelated fixups for DAMON.
 
 - The 7 patch series "mm/damon: define and use DAMON initialization
   check function" from SeongJae Park implement reliability and
   maintainability improvements to a recently-added bug fix.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/damon/stat: expose auto-tuned intervals and
   non-idle ages" from SeongJae Park provides additional transparency to
   userspace clients of the DAMON_STAT information.
 
 - The 2 patch series "Expand scope of khugepaged anonymous collapse"
   from Dev Jain removes some constraints on khubepaged's collapsing of
   anon VMAs.  It also increases the success rate of MADV_COLLAPSE against
   an anon vma.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm: do not assume file == vma->vm_file in
   compat_vma_mmap_prepare()" from Lorenzo Stoakes moves us further towards
   removal of file_operations.mmap().  This patchset concentrates upon
   clearing up the treatment of stacked filesystems.
 
 - The 6 patch series "mm: Improve mlock tracking for large folios" from
   Kiryl Shutsemau provides some fixes and improvements to mlock's tracking
   of large folios.  /proc/meminfo's "Mlocked" field became more accurate.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/ksm: Fix incorrect accounting of KSM counters
   during fork" from Donet Tom fixes several user-visible KSM stats
   inaccuracies across forks and adds selftest code to verify these
   counters.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm_slot: fix the usage of mm_slot_entry" from Wei
   Yang addresses some potential but presently benign issues in KSM's
   mm_slot handling.

 - "Add and use memdesc_flags_t" from Matthew Wilcox gets us started on
   the memdesc project. Please see

      https://kernelnewbies.org/MatthewWilcox/Memdescs and
      https://blogs.oracle.com/linux/post/introducing-memdesc

 - "Tiny optimization for large read operations" from Chi Zhiling
   improves the efficiency of the pagecache read path

 - "Better split_huge_page_test result check" from Zi Yan improves our
   folio splitting selftest code

 - "test that rmap behaves as expected" from Wei Yang adds some rmap
   selftests

 - "remove write_cache_pages()" from Christoph Hellwig removes that
   function and converts its two remaining callers

 - "selftests/mm: uffd-stress fixes" from Dev Jain fixes some UFFD
   selftests issues

 - "introduce kernel file mapped folios" from Boris Burkov introduces
   the concept of "kernel file pages". Using these permits btrfs to
   account its metadata pages to the root cgroup, rather than to the
   cgroups of random inappropriate tasks

 - "mm/pageblock: improve readability of some pageblock handling" from
   Wei Yang provides some readability improvements to the page allocator
   code

 - "mm/damon: support ARM32 with LPAE" from SeongJae Park teaches DAMON
   to understand arm32 highmem

 - "tools: testing: Use existing atomic.h for vma/maple tests" from
   Brendan Jackman performs some code cleanups and deduplication under
   tools/testing/

 - "maple_tree: Fix testing for 32bit compiles" from Liam Howlett fixes
   a couple of 32-bit issues in tools/testing/radix-tree.c

 - "kasan: unify kasan_enabled() and remove arch-specific
   implementations" from Sabyrzhan Tasbolatov moves KASAN arch-specific
   initialization code into a common arch-neutral implementation

 - "mm: remove zpool" from Johannes Weiner removes zspool - an
   indirection layer which now only redirects to a single thing
   (zsmalloc)

 - "mm: task_stack: Stack handling cleanups" from Pasha Tatashin makes a
   couple of cleanups in the fork code

 - "mm: remove nth_page()" from David Hildenbrand makes rather a lot of
   adjustments at various nth_page() callsites, eventually permitting
   the removal of that undesirable helper function

 - "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

 - "mm: hugetlb: cleanup hugetlb folio allocation" from Kefeng Wang does
   some tidying in the hugetlb folio allocation code

 - "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

 - "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()

 - "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

 - "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

 - "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

 - "Some ptdesc cleanups" from Matthew Wilcox utilizes the new memdesc
   layer to clean up the ptdesc code a little

 - "Fix va_high_addr_switch.sh test failure" from Chunyu Hu fixes some
   issues in our 5-level pagetable selftesting code

 - "Minor fixes for memory allocation profiling" from Suren Baghdasaryan
   addresses a couple of minor issues in relatively new memory
   allocation profiling feature

 - "Small cleanups" from Matthew Wilcox has a few cleanups in
   preparation for more memdesc work

 - "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

 - "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

 - "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

 - "mm/damon: misc fixups and improvements for 6.18" from SeongJae Park
   is a bunch of small and unrelated fixups for DAMON

 - "mm/damon: define and use DAMON initialization check function" from
   SeongJae Park implement reliability and maintainability improvements
   to a recently-added bug fix

 - "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

 - "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

 - "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

 - "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

 - "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

 - "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

* tag 'mm-stable-2025-10-01-19-00' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm: (372 commits)

     - 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

28fc0972e3 parisc: Add __attribute_const__ to ffs()-family implementations 
While tracking down a problem where constant expressions used by
BUILD_BUG_ON() suddenly stopped working[1], we found that an added static
initializer was convincing the compiler that it couldn't track the state
of the prior statically initialized value. Tracing this down found that
ffs() was used in the initializer macro, but since it wasn't marked with
__attribute__const__, the compiler had to assume the function might
change variable states as a side-effect (which is not true for ffs(),
which provides deterministic math results).

Add missing __attribute_const__ annotations to PARISC's implementations of
ffs(), __ffs(), and fls() functions. These are pure mathematical functions
that always return the same result for the same input with no side effects,
making them eligible for compiler optimization.

Build tested ARCH=parisc defconfig with GCC hppa-linux-gnu 14.2.0.

89f686a0fb parisc: Revise __get_user() to probe user read access 
Because of the way read access support is implemented, read access
interruptions are only triggered at privilege levels 2 and 3. The
kernel executes at privilege level 0, so __get_user() never triggers
a read access interruption (code 26). Thus, it is currently possible
for user code to access a read protected address via a system call.

Fix this by probing read access rights at privilege level 3 (PRIV_USER)
and setting __gu_err to -EFAULT (-14) if access isn't allowed.

Note the cmpiclr instruction does a 32-bit compare because COND macro
doesn't work inside asm.

91428ca932 parisc: Check region is readable by user in raw_copy_from_user() 
Because of the way the _PAGE_READ is handled in the parisc PTE, an
access interruption is not generated when the kernel reads from a
region where the _PAGE_READ is zero. The current code was written
assuming read access faults would also occur in the kernel.

This change adds user access checks to raw_copy_from_user().  The
prober_user() define checks whether user code has read access to
a virtual address. Note that page faults are not handled in the
exception support for the probe instruction. For this reason, we
precede the probe by a ldb access check.

d82d3bf411 mm: pass mm down to pagetable_{pte,pmd}_ctor 
Patch series "Always call constructor for kernel page tables", v2.

There has been much confusion around exactly when page table
constructors/destructors (pagetable_*_[cd]tor) are supposed to be called. 
They were initially introduced for user PTEs only (to support split page
table locks), then at the PMD level for the same purpose.  Accounting was
added later on, starting at the PTE level and then moving to higher levels
(PMD, PUD).  Finally, with my earlier series "Account page tables at all
levels" [1], the ctor/dtor is run for all levels, all the way to PGD.

I thought this was the end of the story, and it hopefully is for user
pgtables, but I was wrong for what concerns kernel pgtables.  The current
situation there makes very little sense:

* At the PTE level, the ctor/dtor is not called (at least in the generic
  implementation).  Specific helpers are used for kernel pgtables at this
  level (pte_{alloc,free}_kernel()) and those have never called the
  ctor/dtor, most likely because they were initially irrelevant in the
  kernel case.

* At all other levels, the ctor/dtor is normally called.  This is
  potentially wasteful at the PMD level (more on that later).

This series aims to ensure that the ctor/dtor is always called for kernel
pgtables, as it already is for user pgtables.  Besides consistency, the
main motivation is to guarantee that ctor/dtor hooks are systematically
called; this makes it possible to insert hooks to protect page tables [2],
for instance.  There is however an extra challenge: split locks are not
used for kernel pgtables, and it would therefore be wasteful to initialise
them (ptlock_init()).

It is worth clarifying exactly when split locks are used.  They clearly
are for user pgtables, but as illustrated in commit 61444cde91 ("ARM:
8591/1: mm: use fully constructed struct pages for EFI pgd allocations"),
they also are for special page tables like efi_mm.  The one case where
split locks are definitely unused is pgtables owned by init_mm; this is
consistent with the behaviour of apply_to_pte_range().

The approach chosen in this series is therefore to pass the mm associated
to the pgtables being constructed to pagetable_{pte,pmd}_ctor() (patch 1),
and skip ptlock_init() if mm == &init_mm (patch 3 and 7).  This makes it
possible to call the PTE ctor/dtor from pte_{alloc,free}_kernel() without
unintended consequences (patch 3).  As a result the accounting functions
are now called at all levels for kernel pgtables, and split locks are
never initialised.

In configurations where ptlocks are dynamically allocated (32-bit,
PREEMPT_RT, etc.) and ARCH_ENABLE_SPLIT_PMD_PTLOCK is selected, this
series results in the removal of a kmem_cache allocation for every kernel
PMD.  Additionally, for certain architectures that do not use
<asm-generic/pgalloc.h> such as s390, the same optimisation occurs at the
PTE level.

===

Things get more complicated when it comes to special pgtable allocators
(patch 8-12).  All architectures need such allocators to create initial
kernel pgtables; we are not concerned with those as the ctor cannot be
called so early in the boot sequence.  However, those allocators may also
be used later in the boot sequence or during normal operations.  There are
two main use-cases:

1. Mapping EFI memory: efi_mm (arm, arm64, riscv)
2. arch_add_memory(): init_mm

The ctor is already explicitly run (at the PTE/PMD level) in the first
case, as required for pgtables that are not associated with init_mm. 
However the same allocators may also be used for the second use-case (or
others), and this is where it gets messy.  Patch 1 calls the ctor with
NULL as mm in those situations, as the actual mm isn't available. 
Practically this means that ptlocks will be unconditionally initialised. 
This is fine on arm - create_mapping_late() is only used for the EFI
mapping.  On arm64, __create_pgd_mapping() is also used by
arch_add_memory(); patch 8/9/11 ensure that ctors are called at all levels
with the appropriate mm.  The situation is similar on riscv, but
propagating the mm down to the ctor would require significant refactoring.
Since they are already called unconditionally, this series leaves riscv
no worse off - patch 10 adds comments to clarify the situation.

From a cursory look at other architectures implementing arch_add_memory(),
s390 and x86 may also need a similar treatment to add constructor calls. 
This is to be taken care of in a future version or as a follow-up.

===

The complications in those special pgtable allocators beg the question:
does it really make sense to treat efi_mm and init_mm differently in e.g. 
apply_to_pte_range()?  Maybe what we really need is a way to tell if an mm
corresponds to user memory or not, and never use split locks for non-user
mm's.  Feedback and suggestions welcome!


This patch (of 12):

In preparation for calling constructors for all kernel page tables while
eliding unnecessary ptlock initialisation, let's pass down the associated
mm to the PTE/PMD level ctors.  (These are the two levels where ptlocks
are used.)

In most cases the mm is already around at the point of calling the ctor so
we simply pass it down.  This is however not the case for special page
table allocators:

* arch/arm/mm/mmu.c
* arch/arm64/mm/mmu.c
* arch/riscv/mm/init.c

In those cases, the page tables being allocated are either for standard
kernel memory (init_mm) or special page directories, which may not be
associated to any mm.  For now let's pass NULL as mm; this will be refined
where possible in future patches.

No functional change in this patch.

cccaea1d66 parisc: Replace __ASSEMBLY__ with __ASSEMBLER__ in non-uapi headers 
While the GCC and Clang compilers already define __ASSEMBLER__
automatically when compiling assembly code, __ASSEMBLY__ is a
macro that only gets defined by the Makefiles in the kernel.
This can be very confusing when switching between userspace
and kernelspace coding, or when dealing with uapi headers that
rather should use __ASSEMBLER__ instead. So let's standardize on
the __ASSEMBLER__ macro that is provided by the compilers now.

This is mostly a completely mechanical patch (done with a simple
"sed -i" statement), except for some manual tweaks in the files
arch/parisc/include/asm/smp.h, arch/parisc/include/asm/signal.h,
arch/parisc/include/asm/thread_info.h and arch/parisc/include/asm/vdso.h
that had the macro spelled in a wrong way.

eb0ece1602 - The 6 patch series "Enable strict percpu address space checks" from 
Uros Bizjak uses x86 named address space qualifiers to provide
   compile-time checking of percpu area accesses.
 
   This has caused a small amount of fallout - two or three issues were
   reported.  In all cases the calling code was founf to be incorrect.
 
 - The 4 patch series "Some cleanup for memcg" from Chen Ridong
   implements some relatively monir cleanups for the memcontrol code.
 
 - The 17 patch series "mm: fixes for device-exclusive entries (hmm)"
   from David Hildenbrand fixes a boatload of issues which David found then
   using device-exclusive PTE entries when THP is enabled.  More work is
   needed, but this makes thins better - our own HMM selftests now succeed.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm: zswap: remove z3fold and zbud" from Yosry
   Ahmed remove the z3fold and zbud implementations.  They have been
   deprecated for half a year and nobody has complained.
 
 - The 5 patch series "mm: further simplify VMA merge operation" from
   Lorenzo Stoakes implements numerous simplifications in this area.  No
   runtime effects are anticipated.
 
 - The 4 patch series "mm/madvise: remove redundant mmap_lock operations
   from process_madvise()" from SeongJae Park rationalizes the locking in
   the madvise() implementation.  Performance gains of 20-25% were observed
   in one MADV_DONTNEED microbenchmark.
 
 - The 12 patch series "Tiny cleanup and improvements about SWAP code"
   from Baoquan He contains a number of touchups to issues which Baoquan
   noticed when working on the swap code.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm: kmemleak: Usability improvements" from Catalin
   Marinas implements a couple of improvements to the kmemleak user-visible
   output.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/damon/paddr: fix large folios access and
   schemes handling" from Usama Arif provides a couple of fixes for DAMON's
   handling of large folios.
 
 - The 3 patch series "mm/damon/core: fix wrong and/or useless

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

   file-backed mappings.
 
 - The 4 patch series "mm: batched unmap lazyfree large folios during
   reclamation" from Barry Song cleans up and speeds up the unmapping for
   pte-mapped large folios.
 
 - The 18 patch series "reimplement per-vma lock as a refcount" from
   Suren Baghdasaryan puts the vm_lock back into the vma.  Our reasons for
   pulling it out were largely bogus and that change made the code more
   messy.  This patchset provides small (0-10%) improvements on one
   microbenchmark.
 
 - The 5 patch series "Docs/mm/damon: misc DAMOS filters documentation
   fixes and improves" from SeongJae Park does some maintenance work on the

   Senozhatsky teaches zram to run its compression and decompression
   operations preemptibly.
 
 - The 12 patch series "selftests/mm: Some cleanups from trying to run
   them" from Brendan Jackman fixes a pile of unrelated issues which
   Brendan encountered while runnimg our selftests.
 
 - The 2 patch series "fs/proc/task_mmu: add guard region bit to pagemap"
   from Lorenzo Stoakes permits userspace to use /proc/pid/pagemap to
   determine whether a particular page is a guard page.
 
 - The 7 patch series "mm, swap: remove swap slot cache" from Kairui Song
   removes the swap slot cache from the allocation path - it simply wasn't
   being effective.
 
 - The 5 patch series "mm: cleanups for device-exclusive entries (hmm)"
   from David Hildenbrand implements a number of unrelated cleanups in this
   code.
 
 - The 5 patch series "mm: Rework generic PTDUMP configs" from Anshuman
   Khandual implements a number of preparatoty cleanups to the
   GENERIC_PTDUMP Kconfig logic.
 
 - The 8 patch series "mm/damon: auto-tune aggregation interval" from
   SeongJae Park implements a feedback-driven automatic tuning feature for
   DAMON's aggregation interval tuning.
 
 - The 5 patch series "Fix lazy mmu mode" from Ryan Roberts fixes some
   issues in powerpc, sparc and x86 lazy MMU implementations.  Ryan did
   this in preparation for implementing lazy mmu mode for arm64 to optimize
   vmalloc.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/page_alloc: Some clarifications for migratetype
   fallback" from Brendan Jackman reworks some commentary to make the code
   easier to follow.
 
 - The 3 patch series "page_counter cleanup and size reduction" from

   which we accidentally added late last year.
 
 - The 3 patch series "Add a command line option that enables control of
   how many threads should be used to allocate huge pages" from Thomas
   Prescher does that.  It allows the careful operator to significantly
   reduce boot time by tuning the parallalization of huge page
   initialization.
 
 - The 3 patch series "Fix calculations in trace_balance_dirty_pages()
   for cgwb" from Tang Yizhou fixes the tracing output from the dirty page
   balancing code.
 
 - The 9 patch series "mm/damon: make allow filters after reject filters
   useful and intuitive" from SeongJae Park improves the handling of allow
   and reject filters.  Behaviour is made more consistent and the
   documention is updated accordingly.
 
 - The 5 patch series "Switch zswap to object read/write APIs" from Yosry
   Ahmed updates zswap to the new object read/write APIs and thus permits
   the removal of some legacy code from zpool and zsmalloc.
 
 - The 6 patch series "Some trivial cleanups for shmem" from Baolin Wang
   does as it claims.
 
 - The 20 patch series "fs/dax: Fix ZONE_DEVICE page reference counts"

   is a preparatoty refactoring and cleanup of the mremap() code.
 
 - The 20 patch series "mm: MM owner tracking for large folios (!hugetlb)
   + CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT" from David Hildenbrand reworks the manner in

   new sysfs directories to ease the management of DAMON/DAMOS filters.
 
 - The 13 patch series "arch, mm: reduce code duplication in mem_init()"
   from Mike Rapoport consolidates many per-arch implementations of
   mem_init() into code generic code, where that is practical.
 
 - The 13 patch series "mm/damon/sysfs: commit parameters online via
   damon_call()" from SeongJae Park continues the cleaning up of sysfs

   crash which was observed with an unusual combination of compile and
   cmdline options.
 
 - The 8 patch series "Buddy allocator like (or non-uniform) folio split"

   separately for file and anon pages.
 
 - The 2 patch series "Adding Proactive Memory Reclaim Statistics" from
   Hao Jia separates the proactive reclaim statistics from the direct
   reclaim statistics.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/vmscan: don't try to reclaim hwpoison folio"

3a90a72aca asm-generic changes for 6.15 
This is mainly set of cleanups of asm-generic/io.h, resolving problems
 with inconsistent semantics of ioread64/iowrite64 that were causing
 runtime and build issues.
 
 The "GENERIC_IOMAP" version that switches between inb()/outb() and
 readb()/writeb() style accessors is now only used on architectures that
 have PC-style ISA devices that are not memory mapped (x86, uml, m68k-q40
 and powerpc-powernv), while alpha and parisc use a more complicated
 variant and everything else just maps the ioread interfaces to plan MMIO
 (readb/writeb etc).
 
 In addition there are two small changes from Raag Jadav to simplify
 the asm-generic/io.h indirect inclusions and from Jann Horn to fix
 a corner case with read_word_at_a_time.

317a76a996 Updates for the VDSO infrastructure: 
- Consolidate the VDSO storage
 
     The VDSO data storage and data layout has been largely architecture
     specific for historical reasons. That increases the maintenance effort
     and causes inconsistencies over and over.
 
     There is no real technical reason for architecture specific layouts and
     implementations. The architecture specific details can easily be
     integrated into a generic layout, which also reduces the amount of
     duplicated code for managing the mappings.
 
     Convert all architectures over to a unified layout and common mapping
     infrastructure. This splits the VDSO data layout into subsystem
     specific blocks, timekeeping, random and architecture parts, which
     provides a better structure and allows to improve and update the
     functionalities without conflict and interaction.
 
   - Rework the timekeeping data storage
 
     The current implementation is designed for exposing system timekeeping
     accessors, which was good enough at the time when it was designed.
 
     PTP and Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) change that as there are
     requirements to expose independent PTP clocks, which are not related to
     system timekeeping.
 
     Replace the monolithic data storage by a structured layout, which
     allows to add support for independent PTP clocks on top while reusing
     both the data structures and the time accessor implementations.

86758b5048 mm/ioremap: pass pgprot_t to ioremap_prot() instead of unsigned long 
ioremap_prot() currently accepts pgprot_val parameter as an unsigned long,
thus implicitly assuming that pgprot_val and pgprot_t could never be
bigger than unsigned long.  But this assumption soon will not be true on
arm64 when using D128 pgtables.  In 128 bit page table configuration,
unsigned long is 64 bit, but pgprot_t is 128 bit.

Passing platform abstracted pgprot_t argument is better as compared to
size based data types.  Let's change the parameter to directly pass
pgprot_t like another similar helper generic_ioremap_prot().

Without this change in place, D128 configuration does not work on arm64 as
the top 64 bits gets silently stripped when passing the protection value
to this function.

02410ac72a mm: hugetlb: Add huge page size param to huge_ptep_get_and_clear() 
In order to fix a bug, arm64 needs to be told the size of the huge page
for which the huge_pte is being cleared in huge_ptep_get_and_clear().
Provide for this by adding an `unsigned long sz` parameter to the
function. This follows the same pattern as huge_pte_clear() and
set_huge_pte_at().

This commit makes the required interface modifications to the core mm as
well as all arches that implement this function (arm64, loongarch, mips,
parisc, powerpc, riscv, s390, sparc). The actual arm64 bug will be fixed
in a separate commit.

4e3ff3c585 parisc: Remove memcpy_fromio 
Fully migrate parisc to the IO functions from lib/iomem_copy.c. In a
recent patch the functions memset_io and memcpy_toio were removed, but
the memcpy_fromio was kept, because for very short sequences it does
half word accesses, whereas the functions in lib/iomem_copy.c do byte
accesses until the memory is naturally aligned and then do machine word
accesses. But I don't think the single half-word access merits keeping
the arch specific implementation, so, remove it as well.

a9b3c355c2 asm-generic: pgalloc: provide generic __pgd_{alloc,free} 
We already have a generic implementation of alloc/free up to P4D level, as
well as pgd_free().  Let's finish the work and add a generic PGD-level
alloc helper as well.

Unlike at lower levels, almost all architectures need some specific magic
at PGD level (typically initialising PGD entries), so introducing a
generic pgd_alloc() isn't worth it.  Instead we introduce two new helpers,
__pgd_alloc() and __pgd_free(), and make use of them in the arch-specific
pgd_alloc() and pgd_free() wherever possible.  To accommodate as many arch
as possible, __pgd_alloc() takes a page allocation order.

Because pagetable_alloc() allocates zeroed pages, explicit zeroing in
pgd_alloc() becomes redundant and we can get rid of it.  Some trivial
implementations of pgd_free() also become unnecessary once __pgd_alloc()
is used; remove them.

Another small improvement is consistent accounting of PGD pages by using
GFP_PGTABLE_{USER,KERNEL} as appropriate.

Not all PGD allocations can be handled by the generic helpers.  In
particular, multiple architectures allocate PGDs from a kmem_cache, and
those PGDs may not be page-sized.
