a5f7a5bb3b x86/kprobes: Fix crash when probing CS CALL instructions
When using eBPF to probe CS CALL instructions within a function,
a crash can be triggered.

The eBPF tool probes offset 257 of the __hrtimer_run_queues()
function:

<__hrtimer_run_queues+249>:  nopl   0x0(%rax,%rax,1)
<__hrtimer_run_queues+254>:  mov    %r14,%rdi
<__hrtimer_run_queues+257>:  cs call <__x86_indirect_thunk_r12>
<__hrtimer_run_queues+263>:  mov    %eax,%r12d
<__hrtimer_run_queues+266>:  xchg   %ax,%ax
<__hrtimer_run_queues+268>:  mov    %r13,%rdi

Which triggers this crash:

  BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: 00000000000f41c9
  #PF: supervisor write access in kernel mode
  #PF: error_code(0x0002) - not-present page
  PGD 0 P4D 0
  Oops: 0002 [#1] SMP NOPTI
  CPU: 1 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/1 Kdump: loaded Tainted: P
  RIP: 0010:__hrtimer_run_queues+0x106/0x230

Note that __hrtimer_run_queues+0x106 is __hrtimer_run_queues+262, which is
at the 6th byte of the above CS CALL instruction. Since the CS CALL
instruction occupies 6 bytes, the exception occurred in the middle of that
call instruction.

The root cause is that when using eBPF tools to probe in the middle of a
function, a kprobe with INT3 is used as the underlying implementation.

During single-step emulation of the original CALL instruction,
int3_emulate_call() assumes that the probed CALL instruction is 5 bytes
long. However, the actual CS-prefixed CALL instruction occupies 6 bytes,
so it constructs an incorrect exception return address. When the CPU
returns from the kprobe handler, the next instruction to be executed is at
the address of the last byte of that CS CALL instruction. Coincidentally,
starting from that address, the CPU fetches and decodes a completely
different instruction, which ultimately triggers a kernel crash.

Fix the issue by using the actual instruction length obtained from
the instruction decoder when constructing the exception return
address, rather than relying on the hardcoded CALL_INSN_SIZE macro.

f65d38155a x86/div64: Fix addition of large constants in mul_u64_add_u64_div_u64()
Adding constants over 2^31 fails to compile because the ADD instruction only
supports 32bit signed immediates.

Replace the "irm" constraint with "erm" so that the compiler loads large
constants into a register.

f7491d7c81 x86/mm: Fix user-space data loss with MADV_FREE and THP
Some of users of Polars (a data analytics library) have lost production
data from this bug. They seem to have just the right combination of
huge pages, MADV_FREE and heavy reclaim pressure.

pmd_modify() masks the old value with (_HPAGE_CHG_MASK & ~_PAGE_DIRTY),
silently discarding the hardware dirty bit.  The subsequent
pmd_mksaveddirty() call is supposed to transfer _PAGE_DIRTY into
_PAGE_SAVED_DIRTY when write-protecting, but the dirty bit was already
stripped from the value, so there is nothing left to transfer.

Contrast with pte_modify(), which keeps _PAGE_DIRTY_BITS in its mask,
and pud_modify(), which keeps _HPAGE_CHG_MASK untouched: pmd_modify()
is the odd one out.  Any pmd_modify() on a writable, dirty PMD loses
the dirty state.

One visible consequence is data loss with MADV_FREE on PMD-mapped THP:

    memset(buf, 0x5A, size);          // PMD-mapped THP, PMD dirty
    madvise(buf, size, MADV_FREE);    // PMD cleaned but left writable,
                                      // folio marked lazyfree
    memset(buf, 0x5A, size);          // hardware sets _PAGE_DIRTY again
    mprotect(buf, size, PROT_READ);   // pmd_modify() drops the dirty bit
    mprotect(buf, size, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE);
    // ... memory pressure ...

Reclaim (e.g. under memcg pressure) then finds the lazyfree folio with
no dirty bit set anywhere and frees it in
__discard_anon_folio_pmd_locked(), even though the data was rewritten
after MADV_FREE; subsequent reads fault in fresh zero pages.  NUMA
hinting alone can trigger the same loss, as do_huge_pmd_numa_page()
restores the PMD through pmd_modify() as well.

PMD-mapped file THPs are affected too: mprotect()/NUMA hinting dropping
the dirty bit means rewritten data is never written back.

Fix it by keeping _PAGE_DIRTY in the preserved mask, exactly like
pte_modify() and pud_modify() do.  The existing
pmd_mksaveddirty()/pmd_clear_saveddirty() pair then performs the
hardware-dirty <-> saved-dirty transition based on the write bit,
preserving the shadow-stack encoding rules.

Linus Torvalds
7bb6284aa7 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.
 
   (This was reviewed by mm maintainers; for more information, see commit
   ee1a586dd1).
 
 * Allocate full pages for SEV/SEV-ES {DE,EN}CRYPT ops on SNP-enabled hosts to
   fix a data corruption issue due to the PSP driver assigning to-be-written
   pages to firmware (as required by the SNP specs).
 
 * Unconditionally intercept ICBEP so that KVM generates the correct guest RIP
   when handling an ICEBP-induced TASK_SWITCH #VMEXIT.
 
 * Harden the SNP "populate" ioctls against bad input, and to prepare
   for supporting in-place private<=>shared conversion.
 
 Generic:
 
 * Remove kvm_debugfs_dir if kvm_init() fails after creating KVM's debugfs.
 
 * Add a per-VM bitmap to track which vCPU IDs have been "claimed" but for
   which the vCPU isn't yet online, and use the bitmap to reject duplicate IDs
   before calling into arch code.  This allows arch code to consume vcpu_id
   without having to worry about cross-vCPU clobbering (at least s390 and x86
   have had related bugs).
 
 * Rework the so called "prepare" and "invalidate" guest_memfd hooks to prepare
   for in-place private<=>shared conversion, and clean up a few warts along the
   way.
 
 Selftests:
 
 * Automatically allocate a full page for L2 guest stacks on x86 instead of
   requiring test-specific L1 guest code to carve out a portion of the L1
   stack for L2 usage, and to ensure the L2 stack also adheres to the x86-64
   calling convention ABI.
 
 * Add a selftest to verify {Guest,Host}-Only behavior in x86's mediated PMU.
 
 * Clean up nested SVM's handling of GPRs on L2<=>L1 transitions, reuse the
   functionality for nested VMX, and drop the ucall hack that was fudging
   around the lack of GPR switching on nVMX.
 
 * Add a stress test to verify KVM doesn't clobber/drop #PF state, e.g. CR2,
   across save/restore, including when L2 is active.
 
 * Add a test to verify KVM_CREATE_VM accepts exactly what is reported by
   KVM_CAP_VM_TYPES.
 
 * Misc selftests fixes and cleanups
 
 * Fix several issues with seeding the pRNG, and rework the pRNG APIs to that
   the pRNG can be sanely used in host code, not just guest code.
 
 * Add an IRQ test to validate virtual IRQ deliverty for IRQs wired up via
   KVM_IRQFD + KVM_SET_GSI_ROUTING, with optional support for triggering IRQs
   via writes to an assigned VFIO device.
 
 * Add syscall wrappers to assert success on a variety of pthreads and CPU
   affinity APIs.
 
 * Set vCPU pthread affinity as early as possible to reduce contention issues
   that were surfaced by PREEMPT_LAZY, which result in runtimes of over a
   minute on large hosts, versus the expected ~5 seconds.
 
 * Rework the PMU counters test to run each testcase using a single VM with
   many vCPUs for each sub-testcase, instead of using a unique VM for each
   sub-testcase.  This cuts the runtime by ~20x.
 
 Miscellaneous:
 
 * MAINTAINERS updates for vfio-ap, guest_memfd, kvm-x86.  Mostly representing
   the status quo more accurately, but also... welcome David Hildenbrand
   as guest_memfd reviewer!

     of over a minute on large hosts, versus the expected ~5 seconds

   - Rework the PMU counters test to run each testcase using a single VM
     with many vCPUs for each sub-testcase, instead of using a unique VM
     for each sub-testcase. This cuts the runtime by ~20x

  Miscellaneous:

   - MAINTAINERS updates for vfio-ap, guest_memfd, kvm-x86. Mostly
     representing the status quo more accurately, but also... welcome
     David Hildenbrand as guest_memfd reviewer!"

91959a31a3 kho: make boot time huge page allocation work nicely with KHO
Today allocation of gigantic pages in HugeTLB cannot work reliably with KHO:
 
 * HugeTLB allocates gigantic pages using memblock and autoscaling of KHO
   scratch accounts for these allocations. When gigantic pages occupy half
   of the memory of more, KHO fails to allocate its scratch memory.
 * After kexec handover, memblock allocations exclusively use KHO scratch
   that is not supposed to contain preserved memory. This essentially blocks
   preservation of HugeTLB with gigantic pages.
 
 Extend early memory pools available for KHO kernel with areas that are
 guaranteed not to contain preserved memory.

 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

   (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

   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.

   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.

Pull x86 mm updates from Dave Hansen:
 "There are two things in here of note. First, there are fixes to reduce
  the time that the TLB flushing code sits around with interrupts
  disabled. It should be well tested, but it's certainly something to
  keep an eye on.

  Second is a little back-and-forth in the interactions between the
  set_memory*() locking and DEBUG_PAGEALLOC. There was a slightly
  painful re-discovery of why DEBUG_PAGEALLOC has special locking rules,
  but the code did end up better for it.

3b4128b9f3 Timers and timekeeping core updates:
- Fix a subtly inconsistency in the timekeeping code, which fails to
     account for the monotonicity adjustment in ntp_error. For small changes
     of the clocksource multiplicator (+/-1) which are typically used by the
     NTP PLL this is hardly to observe. But for larger adjustments,
     e.g. caused by a direct frequency setting through adjtimex() the
     one-time uncompensated offset is significant.
 
     Cure this by adjusting ntp_error with the resulting offset so that the
     discrepancy is smoothed away over time
 
   - Make tick length calculations correct in NTP. The timekeeping core
     takes the quantisation of the clocksource into account when calculating
     the tick length to compensate for the deviation of the nominal
     NTP_INTERVAL_LENGTH. While timekeeping gets this right, NTP is not
     aware of that, which means it operates on the nominal value and not on
     the actual value which is determined by the clock source frequency. The
     rounding of a coarse clocksource like the ACPI PM timer results in a
     +127 PPM deviation.
 
     Cure this by exposing the deviation to the NTP code so that it can
     operate on the same data as the timekeeping core. This is purely kernel
     internal. User space still sees the nominal tick lenght via adjtimex().
 
   - The accuracy of the NTP adjustments is fairly approximate as the code
     assumes that the invocations are precisely in NTP interval frequency
     ticks and the final adjustment can over and under-run.
 
     Cure this by adjusting ntp_error by the intended skew on each tick to
     achieve the desired rate.
 
   - Handle the two competing skews of time offset and time adjustment
     correctly by calculating the conflict portion between the skews and
     adjusting both accordingly.
 
   - A set of updates and improvements for the selftests
 
   - The usual small fixes and improvements all over the place

3424d8c18a 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.

d47db9bf50 Crypto library updates for 7.3
Add library APIs for most AES encryption modes that are used in the
 kernel (ECB, CBC, CBC-CTS, CTR, XCTR, XTS, GCM, CCM).
 
 These AES modes have many in-kernel users that are currently using the
 crypto_skcipher or crypto_aead APIs. These existing APIs are difficult
 to use and inefficient. Until now, the lack of proper library support
 for these has been the main gap in the crypto library.
 
 This set of changes is the next stage of addressing it:
 
   - Implement the new APIs on top of the existing support for

Pull crypto library updates from Eric Biggers:
 "Add library APIs for most AES encryption modes that are used in the
  kernel (ECB, CBC, CBC-CTS, CTR, XCTR, XTS, GCM, CCM).

  These AES modes have many in-kernel users that are currently using the
  crypto_skcipher or crypto_aead APIs. These existing APIs are difficult
  to use and inefficient. Until now, the lack of proper library support
  for these has been the main gap in the crypto library.

  This set of changes is the next stage of addressing it:

   - Implement the new APIs on top of the existing support for
     single-block AES in the library.

   - Fully document the new APIs.

   - Migrate the only user of the old AES-GCM library API to the new,
     more flexible API; then remove the old API and its implementation.

   - Wire up the new APIs to the traditional crypto API by adding
     crypto_skcipher and crypto_aead algorithms.

dee87e09b0 x86/pkeys: Fix pkey_alloc() return value when pkeys are not supported
The man page for pkey_alloc(2) specifies that it should return -1 with
the errno set to ENOSPC when pkeys are not supported [1]. However, on
x86 pkey_alloc() sets errno to EINVAL when called for the first time
on a CPU that does not support pkeys.

The root cause of this is the x86 implementation of mm_pkey_alloc() not
directly checking if pkeys are supported. It only checks if all the
pkeys have been allocated by comparing the allocation map against
all_pkeys_mask. When OSPKE is not enabled, init_new_context() skips the
initialization of the allocation map, leaving it as 0, while
all_pkeys_mask is 1. mm_pkey_alloc() interprets this as there being a
pkey available and it returns pkey 0. Then, pkey_alloc() fails with
-EINVAL from arch_set_user_pkey_access() instead of returning -ENOSPC.
Subsequent calls to pkey_alloc() do return -ENOSPC because pkey 0 is
left marked as allocated.

Change mm_pkey_alloc() to directly check if OSPKE is enabled, and
return -1 if it is not, which causes pkey_alloc() to return -ENOSPC. The
arm64 and powerpc implementations of mm_pkey_alloc() already do this
check.

3b0e2a22d4 preempt: Introduce HAS_SEPARATE_PREEMPT_RESCHED_BITS
With the changes that enable preempt count to track IRQ disabling
nesting, we don't have enough bits in 32-bit preempt count
implementation, as a result we move NMI nesting bits out of the 32-bit
preempt count. However on the architectures that can support 64-bit
preempt count implementation, we can keep the NMI nesting bits in the
32-bit preempt count and avoid maintaining NMI nesting bits outside of
the same cache line.

Therefore HAS_SEPARATE_PREEMPT_RESCHED_BITS is introduced to allow
architectures to select this. Note that under this Kconfig, preempt
count is maintained in a 64-bit word however preempt_count() still
remains as an int because all the effective bits still fit in
(previously we mask out NEED_RESCHED bit in preempt_count()). This
should make no functional changes for existing preempt_count() users.

Enable this for x86_64 along with the introduction of the Kconfig.

4ad87eee54 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.

087116fefb x86/paravirt: Trace contended_release on unlock
On PARAVIRT_SPINLOCKS=y kernels queued_spin_unlock() is dispatched
through a static_call(). Those PARAVIRT_SPINLOCKS=y kernels are quite
popular. Gating contended_release behind a static branch would leave a
NOP on the unlock hot path even, when the tracepoint is disabled.

Since the static_call() is already present, swap its target to a traced
unlock, when the tracepoint is enabled instead. When contended_release
tracepoint is disabled the target is the plain unlock (an inline store
on native x86_64), so the unlock path is unchanged and the tracepoint is
truly zero-cost.

Provide two traced variants, native_queued_spin_unlock_traced() and
pv_queued_spin_unlock_traced(), so each tail-calls its own base unlock
directly rather than recursing through the now-traced static_call().

Teach pv_is_native_spin_unlock() that the traced native variant still
counts as native.

Only PARAVIRT_SPINLOCKS=y is affected. PARAVIRT_SPINLOCKS=n keeps the
generic static-branch path.

fc6ad5eadc x86/paravirt: Use static_call() for the paravirt spinlock ops
queued_spin_lock_slowpath() and queued_spin_unlock() are dispatched
through pv_ops_lock via the paravirt-ops ALTERNATIVE machinery, which
picks the target (native inline store / hypervisor call) once at boot
and cannot change at runtime.

Convert both to static_call(). The site becomes a direct call patched in
place (one byte smaller), and on native the unlock still collapses to
the inline "movb $0, (%rdi)" store, so the fast path is unchanged.

Unlike the ALTERNATIVE mechanism, a static_call() target can also be
updated at runtime via static_call_update(). This is a prerequisite for
the contended_release tracepoint, which has to swap in a traced unlock
while the system is running.

26505e1b5b KVM: SVM: make svm_flush_tlb_gva do a full asid flush if NPT enabled
Red Hat is seeing multiple reports of Windows memory corruptions
(and consequent BSODs) with hv-tlbflush=on, on AMD processors only.
The crashes, while extremely rare, happen even with a stock configuration,
but with Driver Verifier enabled they can be detected after approximately
200 VM hours.  In particular, Alexander Lougovski measured the following:

- on AMD Turin, 15 crashes in 3300 VM hours

- on AMD Milan, 2 crashes in 500 VM hours (there are fewer hours
  here due to the host being smaller)

- on Intel Sapphire Rapids, 0 crashes in 8000 VM hours

- on AMD Turin with full TLB flush (not exactly this patch but
  similar), no crashes in ~2 weeks of run time which should also
  be ~7000 VM hours

For Turin, the microcode version was 0x0b002162, which (assuming
this is the same issue) should not be affected by the problem listed in
https://knowledge.broadcom.com/external/article/419026/bsod-on-virtual-machines-running-on-amd.html;
on the other hand that problem should not apply to earlier processors.
AMD has not provided any information or analysis yet, and when we asked
we didn't know yet that it reproduced on Milan as well.

As to the workload, Alexander threw more or less everything at the same
time at the VM:

- a full Windows Defender scan every 30 minutes

- a disk I/O job

- a loop doing repeated mmap of system files (mostly to hope that
  it triggers some consistency check in the Windows memory manager)

- SQL Express 2022 + StressDB (1.6M rows), with the host doing queries
  (75% write/25% read) via sqlcmd

Driver Verifier is able to detect BSODs more or less at the same time as
the pages are freed.  They mostly happen in the Windows Defender filter
driver, but occasionally also in the networking stack (e.g., afd.sys)
or elsewhere in the filesystem stack (e.g., fltmgr.sys).

The flush is issued from kvm_hv_vcpu_flush_tlb(), which receives the
cross-CPU requests from the Hyper-V TLB flush hypercalls via a kfifo
and is invoked by the KVM_REQ_HV_TLB_FLUSH request.  The mechanism is
the same for both Intel and AMD, and the handler for both vendors is
a simple INVVPID(ADDR)/INVLPGA instruction.

Because the request is handled on the destination CPU, there is a question
of what happens if the VM is migrated across physical CPUs.  In that case,
the INVLPGA instruction would use a stale svm->vmcb->control.asid; but
if anything that might do an *unnecessary* flush (on an asid that's being
used for another VM) and then pre_svm_run() would force a full TLB rebuild.

So, for lack of better ideas, this patch forces a full ASID bump in
svm_flush_tlb_gva().  To avoid paying the price on Intel and also to
avoid unnecessary loops on AMD, the flush_tlb_gva op now returns whether
it did a full flush or not; kvm_hv_vcpu_flush_tlb() takes note and exits
its loops immediately.  While there is an obvious performance impact,
about half of the benefit from Hyper-V tlbflush is preserved (10% vs. 20%
on the SQL Server workload).

kvm_mmu_invalidate_addr() is the only other caller of the flush_tlb_gva op.
The change would have a performance impact on every intercepted INVLPG and,
for nested SVM, on every L1 INVLPGA.  For INVLPGA specifically, this covers
the same suspected issue but for nested hypervisors, so it is correct to
apply the workaround; for INVLPG on shadow paging, instead, the impact
would be stronger and, due to lack of data, for now the use of INVLPGA is
left in place in svm_flush_tlb_gva().

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.

2bd507795e mm: rename uffd-wp PTE bit macros to uffd
The uffd-wp PTE bit is about to gain a second consumer: userfaultfd RWP
will use the same bit to mark access-tracking PTEs, distinct from
mprotect(PROT_NONE) or NUMA-hinting PTEs.  WP vs RWP semantics come from
the VMA flag; the bit is just "uffd has claimed this entry." Drop the
"_wp" suffix from the arch-private bit macros so they reflect that.

  x86:   _PAGE_BIT_UFFD_WP  -> _PAGE_BIT_UFFD
         _PAGE_UFFD_WP      -> _PAGE_UFFD
         _PAGE_SWP_UFFD_WP  -> _PAGE_SWP_UFFD
  arm64: PTE_UFFD_WP        -> PTE_UFFD
         PTE_SWP_UFFD_WP    -> PTE_SWP_UFFD
  riscv: _PAGE_UFFD_WP      -> _PAGE_UFFD
         _PAGE_SWP_UFFD_WP  -> _PAGE_SWP_UFFD

Pure mechanical rename -- no behavior change.

c6f11553c0 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.

Rework .vcpu_pre_run() into a more specific .vcpu_needs_initialization() to
consolidate the SNP and TDX control flows, and to eliminate the potentially
confusing almost-collision between svm_vcpu_pre_run() and pre_sev_run(): the
former is SEV specific, but is pre-KVM_RUN, whereas the latter is pre-VMRUN.

a40764607e KVM: x86: Extract VMX's unhandleable emulation check to common x86
Expose VMX's check for unhandleable emulation as its own kvm_x86_ops hook,
and move the actual pre-KVM_RUN check into common x86.  This will allow
sharing the core logic with KVM's RSM emulation without needed to add a
post-RSM hook, and is a step towards removing the .vcpu_pre_run() hook
entirely.

Alternatively, KVM could provide a post-RSM hook as mentioned, but pre/post
hooks tend to be unwieldy as the exact "timing" of the call often matters
greatly.  E.g. in this case, the call must slot in exactly between loading
guest state from SMRAM and the hack to force the vCPU out of L2 on SHUTDOWN.

21834b541d x86/lib: Add CPUID(0x1) family and model calculation
The x86 library provides x86_family() and x86_model().  They take raw
CPUID register output and calculate the CPU family and model from it.

In follow-up work, the x86 subsystem will use APIs which access
previously-parsed CPUID leafs structure instead of doing direct CPUID queries.
These new APIs force using the auto generated leaf data types at
<asm/cpuid/leaf_types.h>.

Introduce x86 family and model calculation functions that take these
auto-generated data types.  Refactor the original code so that no logic is
duplicated.

d547b10017 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.

platform/x86/amd/hsmp: Add IOCTL_GET_TELEMETRY_DATA for metric table reads
The metric table needs to be delivered to userspace as a single
atomic snapshot, but the current sysfs metrics_bin path is a file
read: userspace can read it in chunks and observe a torn snapshot
if an SMU refresh happens between read() calls. The same path is
also bounded by PAGE_SIZE, so the ~13 KB table used by HSMP protocol
version 7 on Family 1Ah Model 50h-5Fh cannot be returned at all,
regardless of how userspace reads it. Rather than extend sysfs to
lift both restrictions, expose the metric table through the
existing HSMP character device using a new ioctl that always copies
the table in one shot.

Add struct hsmp_telemetry_data and HSMP_IOCTL_GET_TELEMETRY_DATA
to the UAPI header. Under the surrounding #pragma pack(4), placing
the __u64 user pointer first gives a tight 16-byte layout that is
identical for 32- and 64-bit callers, and the trailing __u16
reserved field is rejected with -EINVAL if non-zero so future
kernels can repurpose it without breaking already-deployed
userspace. The command is encoded with _IOW because the kernel only
reads the request struct; the snapshot travels through the user
pointer it carries.

The requested size may be anything from one byte up to the size
firmware reported for that socket's table. A short request returns
the leading bytes of the snapshot, so userspace built against an
older table layout keeps working on firmware that grew the table,
mirroring the relaxed response_sz rule applied to HSMP messages
earlier in this series. A request larger than the firmware table is
rejected with -EINVAL rather than short-written, so a caller can
never mistake a partial copy for a full one.

Dispatch hsmp_ioctl() on the ioctl command: the existing message
handler is factored out as hsmp_ioctl_msg() for HSMP_IOCTL_CMD, and
HSMP_IOCTL_GET_TELEMETRY_DATA goes to a new
hsmp_ioctl_get_telemetry() helper.

/dev/hsmp is a singleton character device that outlives an
individual socket unbind, so an ioctl issued on an already-open fd
can run concurrently with socket teardown. hsmp_sock_rwsem is the
driver's contract for that: the data plane takes it for read, and
probe and remove take it for write to drain the data plane before
freeing the socket array, unmapping the metric tables and
destroying the per-socket mutexes. hsmp_ioctl_get_telemetry() takes
it for read across the socket lookup, the checks on that socket's
metric-table state and the table read itself, so none of that state
can be torn down underneath it. Without this the handler would
sleep in its kvmalloc() holding no lock at all, and could resume
with a freed socket, locking a destroyed mutex and reading from an
unmapped iomem region.

The lock is dropped before the copy_to_user(), because faulting in
the destination can block indefinitely on a userfaultfd-backed
buffer and would otherwise leave a socket unbind waiting for the
write lock.

Since hsmp_metric_tbl_read() reached the mailbox through
hsmp_send_message(), which takes hsmp_sock_rwsem itself, calling it
with the lock already held would recursively take the read side and
can deadlock against a queued writer. Split out
hsmp_metric_tbl_read_locked(), which asserts the lock and uses
hsmp_send_message_locked(), and leave hsmp_metric_tbl_read() as a
wrapper that takes the read lock for the sysfs callers. This also
brings the whole fill-and-copy under the rwsem for those callers,
where the memcpy_fromio() previously ran outside it, and makes the
lock order uniformly hsmp_sock_rwsem -> metric_read_lock ->
hsmp_sem.

The user-controlled socket index in HSMP_IOCTL_GET_TELEMETRY_DATA is
clamped with array_index_nospec() before indexing hsmp_pdev.sock[],
mitigating Spectre v1 (CVE-2017-5753). Include linux/nospec.h, which
the file relied on getting transitively.

platform/x86/amd/hsmp: Source metric-table size from firmware
The driver hard-codes the metric-table region size to
sizeof(struct hsmp_metric_table). That is correct for HSMP protocol
version 6 but mis-sizes the ioremap of the SMU DRAM region on newer
platforms: Family 1Ah Model 50h-5Fh exposes a ~13 KB table under
protocol version 7, and the table is expected to keep growing on
future firmware. The same hard-coded value also forces
hsmp_metric_tbl_read() to reject any read that follows the actual
firmware layout.

Pick up the table size from firmware instead. SMU on Family 1Ah
Model 50h and later populates HSMP_GET_METRIC_TABLE_DRAM_ADDR's
args[2] with the DRAM region size in bytes; older firmware leaves it
0. Bump the descriptor's response_sz to 3 so the field is read, and
store the result in the new per-socket hsmp_socket.metric_tbl_size,
which is then used both for the ioremap() of the region and as the
expected size in hsmp_metric_tbl_read().

The size is stored per socket rather than per platform because
hsmp_get_tbl_dram_base() runs once per socket and each socket maps
its own region. A single platform-wide field would let the last
socket's size be used to copy out of an earlier socket's smaller
mapping.

Bump DRIVER_VERSION to 2.6.

Behaviour on existing protocol-version-6 hardware is unchanged.
Reading a third response word is safe there: for this command SMU
leaves args[2] as 0 rather than a stale value from an earlier
mailbox transaction, so the fallback always applies, yielding the
same value as the previous hard-coded one, and both the ioremap and
the size check produce the same result as before.
