s390/pai: Support CPU hotplug for PMU PAI
The command 'perf stat -e pai_crypto/CRYPTO_ALL/ -- <command>'
crashes the kernel when CPUs are hotplug added during that run.
Root cause is the missing allocation of per-CPU data structures
for that new CPU. The allocation is dynamic and the first
event that has task context creates such a structure for
each online CPU. This is not sufficient. CPUs may be offline
during event creation and can be set online during the
perf run time. For example commands
# echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
# perf stat -e cycles -i -- stress-ng -t10s --matrix X
# sleep 1
# echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
Currently without a CPU hotplug handler, that new CPU has no
per-CPU data infrastructure. The scheduler runs PMU call back
function pai_add() to install the PMU support for that CPU before
the task is being scheduled on that new CPU.
In pai_add() instructions
mp = this_cpu_ptr(pai_root[idx].mapptr);
cpump = mp->mapptr;
return a NULL pointer and the result is a kernel panic as variable
cpump is used inside that function.
Add CPU hotplug support for CPU add and delete and create
the necessary per-CPU data infrastructure during CPU hotplug
add processing. Same for CPU hotplug remove.
This is done when the CPU is offline to ensure the data structures
are available when CPU is made online and tasks are scheduled on it.

s390/topology: Switch to common cpu capacity code
s390 implementation of cpu capacity management infrastructure code does
not do anything different than its common code counterpart. Switch to
common code functions and remove the smp_cpu_*_capacity() functions.
Make s390 code better align with other architectures which utilize
cpu_capacity. No functional changes.
Allow cpu_capacity attributes inside sysfs to accurately reflect cpu
capacity.
ex:
$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/polarization
vertical:high
$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpu_capacity
1024
$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu40/polarization
vertical:low
$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu40/cpu_capacity

s390/cpacf: Unpoison instruction results
Stop KMSAN from complaining about CPACF outputs being uninitialized. Do not unpoison variable-length parameter blocks: mapping function codes (like CPACF_KIMD_SHA_256) to lengths will be ugly. So let the callers do this once the need arises. Also do not touch cpacf_kma(): this wrapper does not handle cc 1 and cc2 at the moment and has to be reworked.

Arm:
* Add support for 'slot' based PMU events, paired with new UAPI that
compels the user to select a specific PMU implementation
* Lazy save/restore of vCPU state for pKVM, along with various fixes
and cleanups to the management of vCPU state between the untrusted
host and pKVM hypervisor
* Disable traps of EL1 registers for nested hypervisors when FEAT_NV2p1
is present, guaranteeing that EL2-specific register bits are stateful
in the EL1 counterpart
* Leverage FEAT_NV3 to avoid unnecessary ERET/TLBI traps when the scope
of those instructions remains 'in host' (i.e. L1 kernel/userspace)
* Pile of fixes for the management of the VNCR pseudo-TLB, such as
under-invalidations and races with concurrent TLBIs on other vCPUs
* Consolidate the non-protected and pKVM view of ICH_VTR_EL2 to a
runtime-patched constant, allowing the same data to be shared with
pKVM prior to dropping host privileges
* Considerable pile of LLM-assisted fixes around the shop but mostly in
the VGIC, our in-kernel generator of bugs (and sometimes interrupts)
LoongArch:
* Advertise already-supported capabilities.
* Some bug fixes about timer and MMIO.
* Some hardening about interrupt injection.
* Replace kvm_err() with kvm_pr_unimpl().
* Add FPU/LSX/LASX test cases for selftests.
RISC-V:
* Svadu/Zicfiss/Zicfilp FWFT support for Guest
* Use try_cmpxchg for IMSIC MRIF RMW
* More arch-specific tracepoints in KVM RISC-V
* Eager page splitting when enabling dirty logging
* Optimize hfence request handling for SMP Guests
* Improve dirty log clearing by skipping zero bits in mask
* Guard HFENCE range loops against overflow
* CPU PM notifiers in KVM RISC-V for non-retentive idle states
* Fix kernel-mode vector context save/restore for Guest
s390:
* Fixes for vfio-ap
* Fixes for the gmap rework
* Fixes for vsie
* AI triggered fixes all over
* diag9c tracing
* code move preparation for the additional arm64 support
* enable CONTEXT_ANALYSIS
x86:
* Perform spring cleaning on x86.{c,h} and asm/kvm_host.h, by adding regs.c
(the kvm_cache_regs.h => regs.h is already applied) and msrs.{c,h}, and moving
relevant code out of x86.c.
* Split kvm_mmu in three parts, respectively to describe the format of page
tables, walking the guest page tables and building the page tables. Always
use the same page table walker kvm->arch.gva_walk as the entry point to
convert a guest's virtual address, where the previous code used two
different kvm_mmu structs depending on whether the walk included nested
EPT/NPT or not. Make page fault vmexits reuse the permission checking
machinery that is used for guest page faults. This is both a cleanup
and a baby step towards supporting XS/XU memory permissions.
* Document some of the "fun" gotchas with the APIC base when creating IRQCHIPs
on x86.
* Remove a defunct masterclock update from kvm_xen_shared_info_init(). It
could result in incorrect kvmclock due to triggering an unnecessary
switch to/from masterclock mode.
* Skip Xen runstate time updates if time has effectively gone backwards, so
that the guest doesn't report 100% steal time for a very, very long time.
* Drop KVM's runtime updates of the Xen PV timing CPUID leaf, as KVM was
updating the wrong sub-leaf, and upstream KVM will soon provide all the
information needed by userspace to populate the CPUID field itself.
* Fix a bug where KVM would walk a newly created rmap without holding the rmap
lock (or mmu_lock) during aging.
* Fix a bug where aging TDP MMU SPTEs could clobber FROZEN SPTEs.
* Fix a variety of #DB priority bugs.
* Fix a class of races related to enabling Hyper-V emulation on a vCPU after
the vCPU is visible to the rest of KVM.
* Use static calls for nested virtualization ops.
* Move more KVM-internal code out of x86's kvm_host.h.
* Enumerate support for a variety of Zhaoxin instructions that don't require
explicit virtualization.
* Fix missing EFER validation bugs, including in the KVM_SET_SREGS* path.
* Harden kvm_vcpu_map() against double-mapping and thus leaking references.
* Misc fixes and cleanups, e.g. for largely benign syzkaller splats.
x86 (Intel):
* Zero a vCPU's entry in VMX's Posted Interrupt Descriptor table used for IPI
virtualization when the vCPU is freed, to fix a use-after-free where hardware
will write to a freed vCPU's PID.
* Service local TLB flushes on a failed nested VM-Enter to fix a bug where KVM
could miss a TLB on a future, successful VM-Enter with the same L2 VPID.
* Cap the maximum value shoved into the VMX Preemption Timer to workaround an
erratum that affects all existing Intel CPUs that support CPUID 0x15.
* Fix VPID virtualization bugs where KVM would fail to flush hardware TLBs.
* Harden the TDX "populate" ioctls against bad input, and to prepare
for supporting in-place private<=>shared conversion.
x86 (AMD):
* Forcefully invalidate SNP VMSA pages if their backing guest_memfd page is
zapped/invalidated, e.g. due to a PUNCH_HOLE in response to a Page-State
Change request.
* Remove a dying VM from the GA Log notifier list before the VM is actually
destroyed, to fix a potential use-after-free.
* While FOLL_WRITE was needed in the past to trigger CoW unsharing, nowadays
FOLL_LONGTERM does that already even without FOLL_WRITE, and in fact,
get_user_pages() actually disallows FOLL_WRITE together with FOLL_LONGTERM.
So don't pass FOLL_WRITE when registering encrypted memory regions, i.e. when
pinning SEV/SEV-ES guest memory, to fix a regression with file-backed memory
introduced by KVM's (correct) usage of long-term pins.

Summary of patch series in this merge:
- The 2 patch series "mm: drop "sub" prefix from various places" from
Dev Jain implements some page->folio conversion and a naming cleanup.
- The 2 patch series "mm/kasan: remove redundant initialization for
kasan_flag_write_only" from Igor Putko provides some KASAN cleanup work.
- The 2 patch series "mm/filemap: reduce unnecessary xarray lookups"
from Chi Zhiling provides a small speedup in the pagecaache read code.
- The 4 patch series "mm/percpu: Fix possible NOFS/NOIO reclaim
recursion" from Kaitao Cheng improves a few things in the vmalloc code -
mainly the avoidance of GFP_KERNEL allocations when the caller asked for
GFP_NOFS or GFP_NOIO.
- The 3 patch series "mm/kmemleak: avoid soft lockup when scanning task
stacks" from Breno Leitao avoids a soft lockup watchdog trigger from the
kmemleak scanning code in extreme situations.
- The 6 patch series "mm/page_owner: misc cleanups" from Ye Liu is a
collection of unrelated cleanups to the page_owner code. For some
reason lots of people have been working on the page_owner code this
cycle.
- The 4 patch series "mm: convert to walk_page_range_vma() to eliminate
find_vma()" from Kefeng Wang simplifies and accelerates the page walking
library function.
- The 3 patch series "mm/migrate: preparatory cleanups for batch copy
and offload" from Shivank Garg implements cleanups in the migration
code.
- The 4 patch series "mm/page_owner: add per-fd filter infrastructure
for print_mode and NUMA filtering" from Zhen Ni provides per-fd
filtering to page_owner in order to reduce the sometimes vast amount of
output it can produce.
- The 19 patch series "mm: Refactor bootmem gigantic hugepage
allocation" from Muchun Song is a "set of fixes and preparatory cleanups
around bootmem HugeTLB handling, sparse initialization ordering, and
related vmemmap setup".
- The 4 patch series "mm/zsmalloc: reduce lock contention in zs_free()"
from Wenchao Hao reduces lock contention in zs_free(), which dominates
the unmap path under memory pressure on Android (LMK kills) and on x86
servers running zswap-heavy workloads. Up to 1.83x improvement in
microbenchmarking.
- The 2 patch series "move alloc_tag.c file under mm/" from Suren
Baghdasaryan does that.
- The 6 patch series "samples/damon: handle damon_{start,stop}()
failures" from SJ Park fixes improper handling of damon_start(),
damon_stop(), and damon_call() failures across DAMON sample modules to
prevent potential memory leaks, operation disruptions and use-after-free
bugs.
- The 11 patch series "mm/damon/sysfs: kobject_del() directories that
users can create/remove" from SJ Park resolves an issue where delayed
sysfs directory removal under CONFIG_DEBUG_KOBJECT_RELEASE causes
creation failures due to duplicate directory names by adding missing
kobject_del() calls before creating new directories.
- The 3 patch series "mm: cleanup clear_not_present_full_ptes()" from
David Hildenbrand cleans up the core pte handling code.
- The 3 patch series "selftests/damon: misc fixes for test bugs" from

contains miscellaneous DAMON fixups.
- The 2 patch series "mm/damon/core: detect internal variation above
max_nr_regions/2" from Jiayuan Chen fixes DAMON's region splitting
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
damon_commit_target_regions(), and cleans up recently added sysfs
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.

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

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"

VFIO updates for v7.3-rc1
- Add nv_falcon vfio selftest driver. The Falcon is a general-purpose
microcontroller embedded within NVIDIA GPUs, presenting a relatively
simple DMA programming interface. This adds another selftest target
for vfio-pci with real DMA transfers. (Rubin Du, Alex Williamson)
- Add allocation assertion helpers to vfio selftests and use them to
avoid variable length arrays and the compiler errors they generate.
(Alex Mastro)
- Fix use-after-free hazard where an init path error in MSI support
leaves a stray pointer that can later be reused or double-freed.
(Xiang Mei)
- Fix previous refactor of PCI BAR mappings to honor non_mappable_bars
flag, which otherwise generates a warning when trying to pci_iomap()
a 256TiB BAR on ISM devices on s390. (Farhan Ali)
- Add igb vfio selftest driver. Like nv_falcon, this provides another
target for DMA testing with vfio selftests, but importantly this
driver supports both physical 82576 NICs and the emulation model in
QEMU. This therefore enables a vfio selftest vector with no physical
hardware requirements. (Josh Hilke, Alex Williamson)
- Mark selftest fixture objects __maybe_unused to accommodate builds
with clang -Wunused-but-set-global. (David Matlack)
- Add error recovery for vfio-pci devices on s390x. This expands
devices which expose the existing error eventfd and introduces a
device feature for reporting firmware defined error state
information to the user, allowing recovery through hypervisor
channels. (Farhan Ali)

Merge tag 'vfio-v7.3-rc1' of https://github.com/awilliam/linux-vfio
Pull VFIO updates from Alex Williamson:
- Add nv_falcon vfio selftest driver.
The Falcon is a general-purpose microcontroller embedded within
NVIDIA GPUs, presenting a relatively simple DMA programming
interface.
This adds another selftest target for vfio-pci with real DMA
transfers (Rubin Du, Alex Williamson)
- Add allocation assertion helpers to vfio selftests and use them to
avoid variable length arrays and the compiler errors they generate
(Alex Mastro)
- Fix use-after-free hazard where an init path error in MSI support
leaves a stray pointer that can later be reused or double-freed
(Xiang Mei)
- Fix previous refactor of PCI BAR mappings to honor non_mappable_bars
flag, which otherwise generates a warning when trying to pci_iomap()
a 256TiB BAR on ISM devices on s390 (Farhan Ali)
- Add igb vfio selftest driver.
Like nv_falcon, this provides another target for DMA testing with
vfio selftests, but importantly this driver supports both physical
82576 NICs and the emulation model in QEMU.
This therefore enables a vfio selftest vector with no physical
hardware requirements (Josh Hilke, Alex Williamson)
- Mark selftest fixture objects __maybe_unused to accommodate builds
with clang -Wunused-but-set-global (David Matlack)
- Add error recovery for vfio-pci devices on s390x.
This expands devices which expose the existing error eventfd and
introduces a device feature for reporting firmware defined error
state information to the user, allowing recovery through hypervisor
channels (Farhan Ali)

Treewide timer related cleanups:
- Remove the leftover CLOCK_TICK_RATE which has been scheduled for
removal more than a decade ago along with some now empty asm/timex.h
files.
- Consolidate delay timer calibration
The construct of having a define in a header requires that
architectures provided asm/timex.h for no reason. Also the function
name for reading the delay timer is confusing at best.
Use a config switch to enable that functionality and rename the
function to delay_read_timer() to make the purpose clear.
This removes some more now empty asm/timex.h files as well.

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.

s390/pci: Store PCI error information for passthrough devices
For a passthrough device we need co-operation from user space to recover the device. This would require to bubble up any error information to user space. Let's store this error information for passthrough devices, so it can be retrieved later. We can now have userspace drivers (vfio-pci based) on s390x. The userspace drivers will not have any KVM fd and so no kzdev associated with them. So we need to update the logic for detecting passthrough devices to not depend on struct kvm_zdev.

KVM: s390: Fix memory corruption by not reinjecting CK machine checks
Channel-subsystem damage machine checks are for the host channel
subsystem. The guest channel subsystem is emulated in the userspace VMM.
There is no point in forwarding such machine checks into the guest.
This also simplifies the machine check reinjection and avoids kfree of a
stack variable as reported by sashiko. There might be still machine
checks that have the ck bit set with another bit (like instruction
damage), mask out the CK bit in s390_backup_mcck_info(), like the CP and
ED bits already are.

preempt: Introduce __preempt_count_{sub,add}_return()
In order to use preempt_count() to track the interrupt disable nesting
level, __preempt_count_{add,sub}_return() are introduced, as their names
suggest, these primitives return the new value of the preempt_count()
after changing it. The following example shows the usage of it in
local_interrupt_disable():
// increase the HARDIRQ_DISABLE bit
new_count = __preempt_count_add_return(HARDIRQ_DISABLE_OFFSET);
// if it's the first-time increment, then disable the interrupt
// at hardware level.
if ((new_count & HARDIRQ_DISABLE_MASK) == HARDIRQ_DISABLE_OFFSET) {
local_irq_save(flags);
raw_cpu_write(local_interrupt_disable_state, flags);
}
Having these primitives will avoid a read of preempt_count() after
changing preempt_count() on certain architectures.

Since [1] cond_resched() is a no-op on s390. Remove all calls.
This also entirely removes uv_call_sched() and replaces all call sites
with uv_call(), since both functions are identical after the removal
of cond_resched().

s390/crypto: Replace cond_resched() with msleep(1)
With [1] cond_resched() is always compiled away and becomes a no-op.
The comments for all cond_resched() calls in crypto code however indicate
that the current process should be scheduled away to avoid instant
re-invocation of a callback. This is not what cond_resched() would do or
did.
Instead of just removing the cond_resched() calls, replace them with
msleep() calls, as suggested by Holger Dengler. This forces the current
task to be scheduled away (sleeps) like originally intended.
Holger provided information why this intended [2]:
"
Let me give a bit of background here: The protected key can only get
invalid, if the Linux instance (z/VM or KVM guest) is moved to another
hypervisor on a different machine (aka life guest relocation). In such a
case, the crypto accelerator card and the host has to exchange the "real
key", which is wrapped by the host and handed back to the guest as the
re-newed protected key. Unfortunately there is no asynchronous trigger
on completion, you have to re-try (and maybe get another "in progress"
return).
And as if that weren't bad enough, if this key exchange between card and
host is the first one, card and host has to instantiate a secure
communication channel (including a key exchange for the transport layer).

mm: rename uffd-wp PTE accessors to uffd
Userfaultfd RWP will reuse the uffd-wp PTE bit to mark access-tracking PTEs, alongside the write-protected ones it already marks. The bit's meaning now depends on the VMA flag (WP or RWP), not on its name. Rename the kernel-internal names that describe the bit: - pte/pmd/huge_pte accessors (and swap variants) - pgtable_supports_uffd() capability query - SCAN_PTE_UFFD khugepaged enum The ftrace string emitted by mm_khugepaged_scan_pmd for this enum is kept as "pte_uffd_wp" so existing trace-based tooling keeps matching. Pure mechanical rename -- no behavior change.

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.

KVM: s390: Fix unlikely NULL gmap dereference
When creating a new vCPU, kvm_vm_ioctl_create_vcpu() will call kvm_arch_vcpu_postcreate() after the file descriptor for the new vCPU has been created. The new file descriptor has not been returned yet, but a malicious userspace program could try to guess it. If a malicious userspace program manages to start the newly created vCPU before kvm_arch_vcpu_postcreate() is called, __vcpu_run() will try to dereference vcpu->arch.gmap and trigger a NULL pointer dereference. Fix this by adding a new field to struct kvm_vcpu_arch to keep track of the initialization status of the vCPU. Refuse to run a vCPU that is not fully initialized. Fixes: |

The queue depth field is defined as a 5 bit field in the Z architecture instead of a 4 bit field. The queue depth (qd) can be in range 0-31 and is reported in bits 59-63 of the TAPQ response. Currently this has no effect as all CEX generations report a queue depth of 7, which fits into 4 bits.

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. This describes the PMD entry capability rather than one current user of it. This is a pure rename: the set of selecting architectures (x86, arm64, s390, riscv, loongarch, and powerpc on PPC_BOOK3S_64) and the gating semantics are unchanged. No functional change intended.

KVM: s390: pv: Use VM_SPARSE area for guest variable storage area
The guest variable storage area is allocated with vmalloc and then donated to the ultravisor. Any kernel access to that area will result in a secure storage access exception (aka fault). This is a problem if such a memory area is read via /proc/kcore. This causes an exception via vread_iter() and results in an unexpected short read. Avoid this by allocating a custom VM_SPARSE area. If such an area is read, vread_iter() returns zeroes for the entire area. Note that the function which frees the area does not update ptes. This is intentional to allow for deferred / lazy pte updates and TLB flushing like the generic vfree() code is doing that. See vunmap_pte_range(). This assumes that s390 will gain full support for lazy_mmu_mode_enable() and lazy_mmu_mode_disable() in the future, since as of now the used ptep_get_and_clear() in vunmap_pte_range() does indeed invalidate and flush every single pte entry, but only for s390.

KVM: s390: Fall back to short-term pinning in MAP ioctl
FOLL_LONGTERM pinning fails for some memory types, such as file-backed
guest memory. As a result, kvm_s390_adapter_map() returns -EINVAL and
irqfd adapter registration fails even though interrupt delivery could
still work via the existing non-atomic path.
When FOLL_LONGTERM pinning fails, verify that the page is accessible
using a short-term pin instead. If the short-term pin succeeds, unpin
the page and add a map entry with pinned=false to preserve MAP/UNMAP
symmetry. The non-atomic irqfd path already performs short-term pinning
for interrupt delivery, so this restores the previous behavior for
memory that cannot be pinned long-term.
get_map_info() is updated to return NULL for unpinned entries so that
the atomic irqfd fast path falls back to the non-atomic path.
kvm_s390_adapter_unmap() and kvm_s390_unmap_all_adapters() skip dirty
marking and unpin for unpinned entries.
Update Documentation/virt/kvm/devices/s390_flic.rst to reflect the
new MAP/UNMAP behavior.

s390/mm: Fix handling of _PAGE_UNUSED pte bit
The _PAGE_UNUSED softbit should not really be lying around. Its sole
purpose is to signal to try_to_unmap_one() and try_to_migrate_one()
that the page can be discarded instead of being moved / swapped.
KVM has no way to know why a page is being unmapped, so it sets the bit
on userspace ptes corresponding to unused guest pages every time they
get unmapped. KVM has no reasonable way to clear the bit once the page
is in use again.
While set_ptes() checks and clears the bit, other paths that set new
ptes did not. This led to used pages being thrown out as if they were
unused, causing guest corruption.
Fix the issue by clearing the _PAGE_UNUSED bit for present ptes in
set_pte(), i.e. whenever a present pte is getting set. The check in
set_ptes() is then redundant and can be removed.
Also fix gmap_helper_try_set_pte_unused() to only set the bit if the
pte is present; the _PAGE_UNUSED bit is only defined for present ptes
and thus should not be set for non-present ptes.

Arm:
"This is a bit of an odd merge window on the KVM/arm64 front. There is
absolutely no new feature in the pull request. It is purely fixes,
because it is simply becoming too hard to review new stuff when so
many AI-fuelled fixes hit the list".
- Significant cleanup of the vgic-v5 PPI support which was merged in
7.1. This makes the code more maintainable, and squashes a couple
of bugs in the meantime.
- Set of fixes for the handling of the MMU in an NV context,
particularly VNCR-triggered faults. S1POE support is fixed
as well.
- Large set of pKVM fixes, mostly addressing recurring issues
around hypervisor tracking of donated pages in obscure cases
where the donation could fail and leave things in a bizarre
state.
- Fixes for the so-called "lazy vgic init", which resulted in
sleeping operations in non-preemptible sections. This turned
out to be far more invasive than initially expected...
- Reduce the overhead of L1/L2 context switch by not touching
the FP registers.
- Fix the way non-implemented page sizes are dealt with when
a guest insist on using them for S2 translation.
- The usual set of low-impact fixes and cleanups all over the map.
Loongarch:
- On a request for lazy FPU load, load all FPU state that the VM
supports instead of enabling only the part (FPU, LSX or LASX)
that caused the FPU load request.
- Some enhancements about interrupt injection.
- Some bug fixes and other small changes.
RISC-V:
- Batch G-stage TLB flushes for GPA range based page table updates
- Convert HGEI line management to fully per-HART
- Fix missing CSR dirty marking when FWFT state updated via ONE_REG
- Fix stale FWFT feature exposure to Guest/VM
- Speed up dirty logging write faults using MMU rwlock and atomic
PTE updates using cmpxchg() for permission-only changes
- Use flexible array for APLIC IRQ state
- Use kvm_slot_dirty_track_enabled() for logging enable check on
a memslot
- Avoid skipping valid pages in kvm_riscv_gstage_wp_range()
- Avoid skipping valid pages in kvm_riscv_gstage_unmap_range()
- Use endian-specific __lelong for NACL shared memory
S390:
- KVM_PRE_FAULT_MEMORY support
- Support for 2G hugepages
- Support for the ASTFLEIE 2 facility
- Support for fast inject using kvm_arch_set_irq_inatomic
- Fix potential leak of uninitialized bytes
- A few more misc gmap fixes.
x86:
- Generic support for the more granular permissions allowed by EPT,
namely "read" (which was previously usurping the U bit) and
separate execution bits for kernel and userspace.
- Do not assume that all page tables start with U=1/W=1/NX=0 at the
root, as AMD GMET needs to have U=0 at the root.
- Introduce common assembly macros for use within Intel and AMD
vendor-specific vmentry code. This touches the SPEC_CTRL handling,
which is now entirely done in assembly for Intel (by reusing the
AMD code that already existed), and register save/restore which
uses some macro magic to compute the offsets in the struct. Both
of these are preparatory changes for upcoming APX support.
- Clean up KVM's register tracking and storage, primarily to prepare for
APX support, which expands the maximum number of GPRs from 16 to 32.
- Keep a single copy of the PDPTRs rather than two, since architecturally
there is just one.
- Handle EXIT_FASTPATH_EXIT_USERSPACE in vendor code to ensure vendor code
gets a chance to handle things like reaping the PML buffer.
- Update KVM's view of PV async enabling if and only if the MSR write fully
succeeds.
- Fix a variety of issues where the emulator doesn't honor guest-debug state,
and clean up related code along the way.
- Synthesize EPT Violation and #NPF "error code" bits when injecting faults
into L1 that didn't originate in hardware (in which case the VMCS/VMCB
doesn't hold relevant information).
- Add support for virtualizing (well, emulating) AMD's flavor of CPL>0 CPUID
faulting.
- Clean up the GPR APIs so that KVM's use of "raw" is consistent, and fix a
variety of minor bugs along the way.
- Fix an OOB memory access due to not checking the VP ID when handling a
Hyper-V PV TLB flush for L2.
- Fix a bug in the mediated PMU's handling of fixed counters that allowed the
guest to bypass the PMU event filter.
- Allow userspace to return EAGAIN when handling SNP and TDX hypercalls, so
the KVM can forward a "retry" status code to the guest, and reserve all
unused error codes for future usage.
- Overhaul the TDP MMU => S-EPT code to move as much S-EPT specific logic as
possible into the TDX code, and to funnel (almost) all S-EPT updates into
a single chokepoint. The motivation is largely to prepare for upcoming
Dynamic PAMT support, but the cleanups are nice to have on their own.
- Plug a hole in shadow page table handling, where KVM fails to recursively
zap nested EPT/NPT shadow page tables when the nested hypervisor tears
down its own EPT/NPT page tables from the bottom up
x86 (Intel):
- Support for nested MBEC (Mode-Based Execute Control), see above in the
generic section; also run with MBEC enabled even for non-nested mode.
- Use the kernel's "enum pg_level" in the TDX APIs instead of the TDX-Module's
level definitions (which are 0-based).
- Rework the TDX memory APIs to not require/assume that guest memory is
backed by "struct page" (in prepartion for guest_memfd hugepage support).
- Fix a largely benign bug where KVM TDX would incorrectly state it could
emulate several x2APIC MSRs.
- Use the "safe" WRMSR API when proxying LBR MSR writes as the to-be-written
value is guest controlled and completely unvalidated.
x86 (AMD):
- Support for nested GMET (Guest Mode Execution Trap), see above in the
generic section; also run with GMET enabled even for non-nested mode.
- Fixes and minor cleanups to GHCB handling, on top of the earlier work
already merged into 7.1-rc.
- Ensure KVM's copy of CR0 and CR3 are up-to-date prior to invoking
fastpath handlers.
- Add support for virtualizing gPAT (KVM previously just used L1's PAT when
running L2).
- Fix goofs where KVM mishandles side effects (e.g. single-step and PMC
updates) when emulating VMRUN.
- Fix a variety of bugs in AVIC's handling of x2APIC MSR interception, most
notably where KVM didn't disable interception of IRR, ISR, and TMR regs.
- Add support for virtualizing Host-Only/Guest-Only bits in the mediated PMU.
- Don't advertise support for unusable VM types, and account for VM types
that are disabled by firmware, e.g. to mitigate security vulnerabilities.
- Rewrite the SEV {en,de}crypt debug ioctls as they were riddle with bugs and
unnecessarily complicated, and add comprehensive tests.
- Clean up and deduplicate the SEV page pinning code.
- Fix minor goofs related to writing back CPUID information after firmware
rejects a CPUID page for an SNP vCPU.
Generic:
- Rename invalidate_begin() to invalidate_start() throughout KVM to follow
the kernel's nomenclature, e.g. for mmu_notifiers.
- Use guard() to cleanup up various KVM+VFIO flows.
- Minor cleanups.
guest_memfd:
- Return -EEXIST instead of -EINVAL if userspace attempts to bind a gmem
range to multiple memslots, and fix the test that was supposed to ensure
KVM returns -EEXIST.
- Treat memslot binding offsets and sizes as unsigned values to fix a bug
where KVM interprets a large "offset + size" as a negative value and allows
a nonsensical offset.
- Use the inode number instead of the page offset for the NUMA interleaving
index to fix a bug where the effective index would jump by two for
consecutive pages (the caller also adds in the page offset).
Selftests:
- Randomize the dirty log test's delay when reaping the bitmap on the first
pass, as always waiting only 1ms hid a KVM RISC-V bug as the test reaped the
bitmap before KVM could build up enough state to hit the bug.
- A pile of one-off fixes and cleanups.
