riscv: fix NR_CPUS range leaking 64-bit default onto 32-bit builds
rv32_defconfig is built in two stages:
- the generic (64-bit-oriented) "defconfig" target runs first
and resolves a concrete NR_CPUS value using the 64BIT default.
- then 32-bit.config is merged on top via merge_config.sh,
which does not touch NR_CPUS.
The final "make olddefconfig" pass sees NR_CPUS=256 is still within
the "2 512" range therefore never recalculates it against the 32BIT
default of 32, silently keeping the leaked 64-bit-stage value.
The NR_CPUS-scaled regions (percpu areas, ...etc) of the resulting
CONFIG_NR_CPUS=256 on a 32-bit build bloats and does not fit in the
percpu/stack layout for rv32 and hangs early boot on QEMU's virt machine.
Fix this by explicitly specify the range for 32/64 and SBI_V01/!SBI_V01.

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.

- "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.

riscv: Add support for srmcfg CSR from Ssqosid extension
Add support for the srmcfg CSR defined in the Ssqosid ISA extension. The CSR contains two fields: - Resource Control ID (RCID) for resource allocation - Monitoring Counter ID (MCID) for tracking resource usage Requests from a hart to shared resources are tagged with these IDs, allowing resource usage to be associated with the running task. Add a srmcfg field to thread_struct with the same format as the CSR. The context-switch path writes the field to the CSR, and resctrl_arch_set_closid_rmid() updates it when a task is assigned to a resctrl control or monitoring group. A per-cpu cpu_srmcfg_default holds the default srmcfg for each CPU, set by resctrl_arch_set_cpu_default_closid_rmid() on CPU group assignment. On context switch, RCID and MCID inherit from the CPU default independently: a task whose thread RCID field is zero takes the CPU default's RCID, and likewise for MCID. A per-cpu cpu_srmcfg variable mirrors the CSR state to avoid redundant writes. L1D-hot memory access is faster than a CSR read and avoids traps under virtualization.

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.

mm: rename ARCH_ENABLE_THP_MIGRATION to ARCH_HAS_PMD_SOFTLEAVES
CONFIG_ARCH_ENABLE_THP_MIGRATION gates PMD-level migration entries. PMD-level device-private entries use the same migration mechanism and therefore require the same architecture support. Upcoming PMD-level swap entries can use the same PMD softleaf helpers without depending on page migration, so rename the architecture gate to CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_PMD_SOFTLEAVES.

calibrate: Rework delay timer calibration
The header define in asm/timex,h and the naming of the function to read the delay timer are confusing at best. Convert it to a config switch selected by the archictures which provide the functionality and rename the function to delay_read_timer(), which makes the purpose clear. Move the declaration to linux/delay.h where it belongs. Remove the resulting empty asm/timex.h files as well. No functional change.

riscv: Gate FUNCTION_ALIGNMENT_4B on DYNAMIC_FTRACE
The FUNCTION_ALIGNMENT_4B select forces the whole kernel to be built
with -fmin-function-alignment=4. This alignment is only needed so the
patchable-function-entry NOPs, which arch/riscv/Makefile emits under
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE, can be patched reliably on RISCV_ISA_C=y builds
where compressed instructions otherwise allow 2-byte function
alignment.
The select is currently gated on HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE, a capability bit
that is selected whenever the toolchain supports dynamic ftrace, rather
than on whether tracing is actually enabled. As a result every
RISCV_ISA_C=y build gets 4-byte function alignment across the entire
kernel even when function tracing is disabled, needlessly growing the
kernel image and wasting instruction cache for a feature that is not
in use.
Gate the select on DYNAMIC_FTRACE instead, matching the condition under
which arch/riscv/Makefile emits -fpatchable-function-entry, so the
alignment is only applied when it is actually needed.
Fixes:

riscv: Raise default NR_CPUS for 64BIT to 256
SpacemiT has already produced a 80-core RVA23 RISC-V server [1], and going further back, the dual-socket SG2042-based Sophgo Pisces has 128 cores (although that had some issues achieving mainline support). Therefore, an NR_CPUS of 64 is not enough. Raise default NR_CPUS to 256 for 64BIT (when !RISCV_SBI_V01, since very old firmware can't support more than 64 cores). The number was picked as a power of two that is at least double the known max. I believe this should be the right balance between not wasting too much memory and not having to touch this too often. Ubuntu has already been shipping NR_CPUS=512 for riscv64. We have also been testing NR_CPUS=256 internally at ISCAS and found negligible performance impact and no ill effects.

RISC-V updates for v7.2
- Prevent get_free_mem_region() from returning regions that are
unmappable in certain circumstances by defining
DIRECT_MAP_PHYSMEM_END for RISC-V
- Fix an early boot problem with kexec_file when the amount of
installed physical memory installed on the system exceeds the direct
map size, which is possible in certain RISC-V virtual memory modes
- Unconditionally sfence.vma in the new vmalloc area handling code in
the page fault handler, since even the presence of Svvptc doesn't
guarantee that the CPU won't immediately fault again after the
exception handler completes and subsequently crash
- Fix ftrace_graph_ret_addr() to use the correct task pointer
(aligning with what other architectures do)
- Fix the misaligned access performance checking code in cases when
performance is specified on the kernel command line and when CPUs
have been brought offline and back online

of walk_stackframe(), aligning it with the frame pointer-based code
- Fix a RISC-V kfence issue causing bogus use-after-free warnings
- Add ARCH_HAS_CC_CAN_LINK for RISC-V, which needs different compiler
command line flags than other architectures
- Implement _THIS_IP_ using RISC-V-specific assembly, which seems to
be less brittle (from a compiler point of view) than taking the
address of a label
- Reduce kernel startup overhead by defining
HAVE_BUILDTIME_MCOUNT_SORT, since arch/riscv meets all the
requirements
- Patch the CFI vDSO during alternatives processing, not only the
standard vDSO
- Fix a potential memory leak in the cacheinfo code
- Clean up kernel/setup.c:add_resource() to pass along the return
value from insert_resource() and to improve the display of
resource ranges
- Clean up our purgatory.[ch] by aligning our purgatory() prototype
to what's in arch/x86, and by cleaning up verify_sha256_digest()
- Clean up cpu_is_stopped() to align its function a little more
closely to its name
- Replace some unbounded string function usage in get_early_cmdline()
and the ptdump code with strscpy()
- Replace sprintf() with sysfs_emit() in cpu_show_ghostwrite() for
safer bounds checking
- Standardize how compiler output flags are specified in the RISC-V
kselftests, aligning them with what other architectures do
- Use the Linux-generic cmp_int() macro in place of an open-coded
"cmp_3way()" macro in kernel/module-sections.c
- Panic early in boot if IRQ handler stacks can't be allocated rather
than pretending to continue normally
- Add support for Eswin SoCs in the RISC-V defconfig
- Remove some unnecessary conditionals in sbi_hsm_hart_{start,stop}()
- Clean up some Kconfig infelicities found by Kconfirm
- Replace an open-coded version of min() in the kexec_elf code with

- Remove the redundant CONFIG_GENERIC_TIME_VSYSCALL after converting the
remaining users over.
- Rework and sanitize the MIPS VDSO handling, so it does not handle the
time related VDSO if there is no VDSO capable clocksource available.
Also stop mapping VDSO data pages unconditionally even if there is no
usage possible.

On RISC-V, also select ARCH_KEEP_MEMBLOCK if kexec is selected, not only if ACPI is selected.

riscv: ftrace: select HAVE_BUILDTIME_MCOUNT_SORT
RISC-V already satisfies all prerequisites for build-time mcount sorting: the sorttable host tool handles EM_RISCV in its machine-type dispatch, and the __mcount_loc section entries are stored as direct virtual addresses in the final vmlinux binary, so no relocation processing is required during the sort step. Select HAVE_BUILDTIME_MCOUNT_SORT so that BUILDTIME_MCOUNT_SORT is automatically enabled when DYNAMIC_FTRACE is configured. This allows sorttable to sort the __mcount_loc section at link time, making the run-time ftrace initialisation path skip the software sort and reducing kernel startup overhead. Verified with CONFIG_FTRACE_SORT_STARTUP_TEST=y, which confirms that the section produced by the build is already in ascending order: [ 0.000000] ftrace section at ffffffff81015a60 sorted properly Signed-off-by: Chen Pei <cp0613@linux.alibaba.com> Tested-by: Guo Ren <guoren@kernel.org> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260409114736.907-1-cp0613@linux.alibaba.com Signed-off-by: Paul Walmsley <pjw@kernel.org> |

arch/riscv: Add bitrev.h file to support rev8 and brev8
The RISC-V Bit-manipulation Extension for Cryptography (Zbkb) provides the 'brev8' instruction, which reverses the bits within each byte. Combined with the 'rev8' instruction (from Zbb or Zbkb), which reverses the byte order of a register, we can efficiently implement 16-bit, 32-bit, and (on RV64) 64-bit bit reversal. This is significantly faster than the default software table-lookup implementation in lib/bitrev.c, as it replaces memory accesses and multiple arithmetic operations with just two or three hardware instructions. Select HAVE_ARCH_BITREVERSE as well as GENERIC_BITREVERSE, and provide <asm/bitrev.h> to utilize these instructions when the Zbkb extension is available at runtime via the alternatives mechanism.

riscv: misaligned: Make enabling delegation depend on NONPORTABLE
The unaligned access emulation code in Linux has various deficiencies.
For example, it doesn't emulate vector instructions [1] [2], and doesn't
emulate KVM guest accesses. Therefore, requesting misaligned exception
delegation with SBI FWFT actually regresses vector instructions' and KVM
guests' behavior.
Until Linux can handle it properly, guard these sbi_fwft_set() calls
behind RISCV_SBI_FWFT_DELEGATE_MISALIGNED, which in turn depends on
NONPORTABLE. Those who are sure that this wouldn't be a problem can
enable this option, perhaps getting better performance.
The rest of the existing code proceeds as before, except as if
SBI_FWFT_MISALIGNED_EXC_DELEG is not available, to handle any remaining
address misaligned exceptions on a best-effort basis. The KVM SBI FWFT
implementation is also not touched, but it is disabled if the firmware
emulates unaligned accesses.

Pull RISC-V updates from Paul Walmsley:
"There is one significant change outside arch/riscv in this pull
request: the addition of a set of KUnit tests for strlen(), strnlen(),
and strrchr().
Otherwise, the most notable changes are to add some RISC-V-specific
string function implementations, to remove XIP kernel support, to add
hardware error exception handling, and to optimize our runtime
unaligned access speed testing.
A few comments on the motivation for removing XIP support. It's been
broken in the RISC-V kernel for months. The code is not easy to
maintain. Furthermore, for XIP support to truly be useful for RISC-V,
we think that compile-time feature switches would need to be added for
many of the RISC-V ISA features and microarchitectural properties that
are currently implemented with runtime patching. No one has stepped
forward to take responsibility for that work, so many of us think it's
best to remove it until clear use cases and champions emerge.
Summary:
- Add Kunit correctness testing and microbenchmarks for strlen(),
strnlen(), and strrchr()
- Add RISC-V-specific strnlen(), strchr(), strrchr() implementations
- Add hardware error exception handling
- Clean up and optimize our unaligned access probe code

rust: simplify RUSTC_VERSION Kconfig conditions
With the Rust version bump in place, several Kconfig conditions based on `RUSTC_VERSION` are always true. Thus simplify them. The minimum supported major LLVM version by our new Rust minimum version is now LLVM 18, instead of LLVM 16. However, there are no possible cleanups for `RUSTC_LLVM_VERSION`.

mm: remove CONFIG_ARCH_ENABLE_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE
Patch series "mm: remove CONFIG_ARCH_ENABLE_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE and cleanup CONFIG_MIGRATION". While working on memory hotplug code cleanups, I realized that CONFIG_ARCH_ENABLE_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE is not really required anymore. Changing that revealed some rather nasty looking CONFIG_MIGRATION handling. Let's clean that up by introducing a dedicated CONFIG_NUMA_MIGRATION option and reducing the dependencies that CONFIG_MIGRATION has. This patch (of 2): All architectures that select CONFIG_ARCH_ENABLE_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE also select CONFIG_ARCH_ENABLE_MEMORY_HOTPLUG. So we can just remove CONFIG_ARCH_ENABLE_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE. For CONFIG_MIGRATION, make it depend on CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE instead, and make CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE select CONFIG_MIGRATION (just like CONFIG_CMA and CONFIG_COMPACTION already do). We'll clean up CONFIG_MIGRATION next.

riscv: create a Kconfig fragment for shadow stack and landing pad support
This patch creates a Kconfig fragment for shadow stack support and landing pad instruction support. Shadow stack support and landing pad instruction support can be enabled by selecting 'CONFIG_RISCV_USER_CFI'. Selecting 'CONFIG_RISCV_USER_CFI' wires up the path to enumerate CPU support. If support exists, the kernel will support CPU-assisted user mode CFI. If CONFIG_RISCV_USER_CFI is selected, select 'ARCH_USES_HIGH_VMA_FLAGS', 'ARCH_HAS_USER_SHADOW_STACK' and 'DYNAMIC_SIGFRAME' for riscv.

RISC-V: Enable HOTPLUG_PARALLEL for secondary CPUs
The core kernel already supports parallel bringup of secondary CPUs (aka HOTPLUG_PARALLEL). The x86 and MIPS architectures already use HOTPLUG_PARALLEL and ARM is also moving toward it. On RISC-V, there is no arch specific global data accessed in the RISC-V secondary CPU bringup path so enabling HOTPLUG_PARALLEL for RISC-V would only require: 1) Providing RISC-V specific arch_cpuhp_kick_ap_alive() 2) Calling cpuhp_ap_sync_alive() from smp_callin() This patch is tested natively with OpenSBI on QEMU RV64 virt machine with 64 cores and also tested with KVM RISC-V guest with 32 VCPUs.
