Kbuild/Kconfig updates for 7.0
Kbuild changes
==============
* Drop '*_probe' pattern from modpost section check allowlist, which hid
legitimate warnings (Johan Hovold)
* Disable -Wtype-limits altogether, instead of enabling at W=2 (Vincent
Mailhol)
* Improve UAPI testing to skip testing headers that require a libc when
CONFIG_CC_CAN_LINK is not set, opening up testing of headers with no
libc dependencies to more environments (Thomas Weißschuh)
* Update gendwarfksyms documentation with required dependencies (Jihan
LIN)
* Reject invalid LLVM= values to avoid unintentionally falling back to
system toolchain (Thomas Weißschuh)
* Add a script to help run the kernel build process in a container for
consistent environments and testing (Guillaume Tucker)
* Simplify kallsyms by getting rid of the relative base (Ard Biesheuvel)
* Performance and usability improvements to scripts/make_fit.py (Simon
Glass)
* Minor various clean ups and fixes
Kconfig changes
===============
* Move XPM icons to individual files, clearing up GTK deprecation
warnings (Rostislav Krasny)
* Support
depends on FOO if BAR
as syntactic sugar for
depends on FOO || !BAR' (Nicolas Pitre, Graham Roff)
* Refactor merge_config.sh to use awk over shell/sed/grep, dramatically
speeding up processing large number of config fragments (Anders
Roxell, Mikko Rapeli)

Scheduler changes for v7.0:
Scheduler Kconfig space updates:
- Further consolidate configurable preemption modes: reduce
the number of architectures that are allowed to offer
PREEMPT_NONE and PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY, reducing the number
of preemption models from four to just two: 'full' and 'lazy'
on up-to-date architectures (arm64, loongarch, powerpc,
riscv, s390, x86).
None and voluntary are only available as legacy features
on platforms that don't implement lazy preemption yet,
or which don't even support preemption.
The goal is to eventually remove cond_resched() and
voluntary preemption altogether.
(Peter Zijlstra)
RSEQ based 'scheduler time slice extension' support:
This allows a thread to request a time slice extension when it
enters a critical section to avoid contention on a resource when
the thread is scheduled out inside of the critical section.
- Add fields and constants for time slice extension
- Provide static branch for time slice extensions
- Add statistics for time slice extensions
- Add prctl() to enable time slice extensions
- Implement sys_rseq_slice_yield()
- Implement syscall entry work for time slice extensions
- Implement time slice extension enforcement timer
- Reset slice extension when scheduled
- Implement rseq_grant_slice_extension()
- entry: Hook up rseq time slice extension
- selftests: Implement time slice extension test
(Thomas Gleixner)
- Allow registering RSEQ with slice extension
- Move slice_ext_nsec to debugfs
- Lower default slice extension
- selftests/rseq: Add rseq slice histogram script
(Peter Zijlstra)
Scheduler performance/scalability improvements:
- Update rq->avg_idle when a task is moved to an idle CPU,
which improves the scalability of various workloads.
(Shubhang Kaushik)
- Reorder fields in 'struct rq' for better caching
(Blake Jones)
- Fair scheduler SMP NOHZ balancing code speedups:
- Move checking for nohz cpus after time check
- Change likelyhood of nohz.nr_cpus
- Remove nohz.nr_cpus and use weight of cpumask instead
(Shrikanth Hegde)
- Avoid false sharing for sched_clock_irqtime (Wangyang Guo)
- Drop useless cpumask_empty() in find_energy_efficient_cpu()
- Simplify task_numa_find_cpu()

Joel Fernandes, with fixes by Peter Zijlstra)
RT scheduler updates:
- Skip currently executing CPU in rto_next_cpu() (Chen Jinghuang)
Entry code updates and performance improvements, which is part of the
scheduler tree in this cycle due to interdependencies with the RSEQ
based time slice extension work:
- Remove unused syscall argument from syscall_trace_enter()
- Rework syscall_exit_to_user_mode_work() for architecture reuse
- Add arch_ptrace_report_syscall_entry/exit()
- Inline syscall_exit_work() and syscall_trace_enter()
(Jinjie Ruan)
Scheduler core updates:
- Rework sched_class::wakeup_preempt() and rq_modified_*()
- Avoid rq->lock bouncing in sched_balance_newidle()
- Rename rcu_dereference_check_sched_domain() =>
rcu_dereference_sched_domain()

(Peter Zijlstra)
Fair scheduler updates/refactoring:
- Fold the sched_avg update
- Change rcu_dereference_check_sched_domain() to rcu-sched
- Switch to rcu_dereference_all()
- Remove superfluous rcu_read_lock()
- Limit hrtick work
(Peter Zijlstra)

- Rename cfs_rq::avg_vruntime to ::sum_w_vruntime & helper functions
- Introduce and use the vruntime_cmp() and vruntime_op() wrappers
for wrapped-signed aritmetics
- Sort out 'blocked_load*' namespace noise
(Ingo Molnar)
Scheduler debugging code updates:
- Export hidden tracepoints to modules (Gabriele Monaco)
- Convert copy_from_user() + kstrtouint() to kstrtouint_from_user()
(Fushuai Wang)

Performance events changes for v7.0:
x86 PMU driver updates:
- Add support for the core PMU for Intel Diamond Rapids (DMR) CPUs.
Compared to previous iterations of the Intel PMU code, there's
been a lot of changes, which center around three main areas:
- Introduce the OFF-MODULE RESPONSE (OMR) facility to
replace the Off-Core Response (OCR) facility
- New PEBS data source encoding layout
- Support the new "RDPMC user disable" feature
(Dapeng Mi)
- Likewise, a large series adds uncore PMU support for
Intel Diamond Rapids (DMR) CPUs, which center around these
four main areas:
- DMR may have two Integrated I/O and Memory Hub (IMH) dies,
separate from the compute tile (CBB) dies. Each CBB and
each IMH die has its own discovery domain.
- Unlike prior CPUs that retrieve the global discovery table
portal exclusively via PCI or MSR, DMR uses PCI for IMH PMON
discovery and MSR for CBB PMON discovery.
- DMR introduces several new PMON types: SCA, HAMVF, D2D_ULA,
UBR, PCIE4, CRS, CPC, ITC, OTC, CMS, and PCIE6.
- IIO free-running counters in DMR are MMIO-based, unlike SPR.
(Zide Chen)
- Also add support for Add missing PMON units for Intel Panther Lake,
and support Nova Lake (NVL), which largely maps to Panther Lake.
(Zide Chen)
- KVM integration: Add support for mediated vPMUs (by Kan Liang
and Sean Christopherson, with fixes and cleanups by Peter Zijlstra,
Sandipan Das and Mingwei Zhang)
- Add Intel cstate driver to support for Wildcat Lake (WCL)
CPUs, which are a low-power variant of Panther Lake.
(Zide Chen)
- Add core, cstate and MSR PMU support for the Airmont NP Intel CPU
(aka MaxLinear Lightning Mountain), which maps to the existing
Airmont code. (Martin Schiller)
Performance enhancements:
- core: Speed up kexec shutdown by avoiding unnecessary
cross CPU calls. (Jan H. Schönherr)
- core: Fix slow perf_event_task_exit() with LBR callstacks
(Namhyung Kim)
User-space stack unwinding support:
- Various cleanups and refactorings in preparation to generalize
the unwinding code for other architectures. (Jens Remus)
Uprobes updates:
- Transition from kmap_atomic to kmap_local_page (Keke Ming)
- Fix incorrect lockdep condition in filter_chain() (Breno Leitao)
- Fix XOL allocation failure for 32-bit tasks (Oleg Nesterov)
Misc fixes and cleanups:
- s390: Remove kvm_types.h from Kbuild (Randy Dunlap)
- x86/intel/uncore: Convert comma to semicolon (Chen Ni)
- x86/uncore: Clean up const mismatch (Greg Kroah-Hartman)
- x86/ibs: Fix typo in dc_l2tlb_miss comment (Xiang-Bin Shi)

The kthread code provides an infrastructure which manages the preferred
affinity of unbound kthreads (node or custom cpumask) against housekeeping (CPU isolation) constraints and CPU hotplug events. One crucial missing piece is the handling of cpuset: when an isolated partition is created, deleted, or its CPUs updated, all the unbound kthreads in the top cpuset become indifferently affine to _all_ the non-isolated CPUs, possibly breaking their preferred affinity along the way. Solve this with performing the kthreads affinity update from cpuset to the kthreads consolidated relevant code instead so that preferred affinities are honoured and applied against the updated cpuset isolated partitions. The dispatch of the new isolated cpumasks to timers, workqueues and kthreads is performed by housekeeping, as per the nice Tejun's suggestion. As a welcome side effect, HK_TYPE_DOMAIN then integrates both the set from boot defined domain isolation (through isolcpus=) and cpuset isolated partitions. Housekeeping cpumasks are now modifiable with a specific RCU based synchronization.

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains a mix of VFS cleanups, performance improvements, API
fixes, documentation, and a deprecation notice.
Scalability and performance:
- Rework pid allocation to only take pidmap_lock once instead of
twice during alloc_pid(), improving thread creation/teardown
throughput by 10-16% depending on false-sharing luck. Pad the
namespace refcount to reduce false-sharing
- Track file lock presence via a flag in ->i_opflags instead of
reading ->i_flctx, avoiding false-sharing with ->i_readcount on
open/close hot paths. Measured 4-16% improvement on 24-core
open-in-a-loop benchmarks
- Use a consume fence in locks_inode_context() to match the
store-release/load-consume idiom, eliminating a hardware fence on
some architectures
- Annotate cdev_lock with __cacheline_aligned_in_smp to prevent
false-sharing
- Remove a redundant DCACHE_MANAGED_DENTRY check in
__follow_mount_rcu() that never fires since the caller already
verifies it, eliminating a 100% mispredicted branch
- Fix a 100% mispredicted likely() in devcgroup_inode_permission()
that became wrong after a prior code reorder
Bug fixes and correctness:
- Make insert_inode_locked() wait for inode destruction instead of
skipping, fixing a corner case where two matching inodes could
exist in the hash
- Move f_mode initialization before file_ref_init() in alloc_file()
to respect the SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU ordering contract
- Add a WARN_ON_ONCE guard in try_to_free_buffers() for folios with
no buffers attached, preventing a null pointer dereference when
AS_RELEASE_ALWAYS is set but no release_folio op exists
- Fix select restart_block to store end_time as timespec64, avoiding
truncation of tv_sec on 32-bit architectures
- Make dump_inode() use get_kernel_nofault() to safely access inode
and superblock fields, matching the dump_mapping() pattern
API modernization:
- Make posix_acl_to_xattr() allocate the buffer internally since
every single caller was doing it anyway. Reduces boilerplate and
unnecessary error checking across ~15 filesystems
- Replace deprecated simple_strtoul() with kstrtoul() for the
ihash_entries, dhash_entries, mhash_entries, and mphash_entries
boot parameters, adding proper error handling
- Convert chardev code to use guard(mutex) and __free(kfree) cleanup
patterns
- Replace min_t() with min() or umin() in VFS code to avoid silently
truncating unsigned long to unsigned int
- Gate LOOKUP_RCU assertions behind CONFIG_DEBUG_VFS since callers
already check the flag
Deprecation:
- Begin deprecating legacy BSD process accounting (acct(2)). The
interface has numerous footguns and better alternatives exist
(eBPF)
Documentation:
- Fix and complete kernel-doc for struct export_operations, removing
duplicated documentation between ReST and source
- Fix kernel-doc warnings for __start_dirop() and ilookup5_nowait()
Testing:
- Add a kunit test for initramfs cpio handling of entries with
filesize > PATH_MAX
Misc:
- Add missing <linux/init_task.h> include in fs_struct.c"

Pull vfs nullfs update from Christian Brauner:
"Add a completely catatonic minimal pseudo filesystem called "nullfs"
and make pivot_root() work in the initramfs.
Currently pivot_root() does not work on the real rootfs because it
cannot be unmounted. Userspace has to recursively delete initramfs
contents manually before continuing boot, using the fragile
switch_root sequence (overmount + chroot).
Add nullfs, a minimal immutable filesystem that serves as the true
root of the mount hierarchy. The mutable rootfs (tmpfs/ramfs) is
mounted on top of it. This allows userspace to simply:
chdir(new_root);
pivot_root(".", ".");
umount2(".", MNT_DETACH);
without the traditional switch_root workarounds. systemd already
handles this correctly. It tries pivot_root() first and falls back
to MS_MOVE only when that fails.
This also means rootfs mounts in unprivileged namespaces no longer
need MNT_LOCKED, since the immutable nullfs guarantees nothing can be
revealed by unmounting the covering mount.
nullfs is a single-instance filesystem (get_tree_single()) marked
SB_NOUSER | SB_I_NOEXEC | SB_I_NODEV with an immutable empty root
directory. This means sooner or later it can be used to overmount
other directories to hide their contents without any additional
protection needed.
We enable it unconditionally. If we see any real regression we'll
hide it behind a boot option.
nullfs has extensions beyond this in the future. It will serve as a
concept to support the creation of completely empty mount namespaces -
which is work coming up in the next cycle"

cpuset: Propagate cpuset isolation update to workqueue through housekeeping
Until now, cpuset would propagate isolated partition changes to workqueues so that unbound workers get properly reaffined. Since housekeeping now centralizes, synchronize and propagates isolation cpumask changes, perform the work from that subsystem for consolidation and consistency purposes. For simplification purpose, the target function is adapted to take the new housekeeping mask instead of the isolated mask.

arch, mm: consolidate initialization of nodes, zones and memory map
To initialize node, zone and memory map data structures every architecture calls free_area_init() during setup_arch() and passes it an array of zone limits. Beside code duplication it creates "interesting" ordering cases between allocation and initialization of hugetlb and the memory map. Some architectures allocate hugetlb pages very early in setup_arch() in certain cases, some only create hugetlb CMA areas in setup_arch() and sometimes hugetlb allocations happen mm_core_init(). With arch_zone_limits_init() helper available now on all architectures it is no longer necessary to call free_area_init() from architecture setup code. Rather core MM initialization can call arch_zone_limits_init() in a single place. This allows to unify ordering of hugetlb vs memory map allocation and initialization. Remove the call to free_area_init() from architecture specific code and place it in a new mm_core_init_early() function that is called immediately after setup_arch(). After this refactoring it is possible to consolidate hugetlb allocations and eliminate differences in ordering of hugetlb and memory map initialization among different architectures. As the first step of this consolidation move hugetlb_bootmem_alloc() to mm_core_early_init().

rseq: Add fields and constants for time slice extension
Aside of a Kconfig knob add the following items:
- Two flag bits for the rseq user space ABI, which allow user space to
query the availability and enablement without a syscall.
- A new member to the user space ABI struct rseq, which is going to be
used to communicate request and grant between kernel and user space.
- A rseq state struct to hold the kernel state of this
- Documentation of the new mechanism

compiler_types.h: Attributes: Add __counted_by_ptr macro
Introduce __counted_by_ptr(), which works like __counted_by(), but for
pointer struct members.
struct foo {
int a, b, c;
char *buffer __counted_by_ptr(bytes);
short nr_bars;
struct bar *bars __counted_by_ptr(nr_bars);
size_t bytes;
};
Because "counted_by" can only be applied to pointer members in very
recent compiler versions, its application ends up needing to be distinct
from flexibe array "counted_by" annotations, hence a separate macro.
This is a reworking of Kees' previous patch [1].

kbuild: uapi: drop dependency on CC_CAN_LINK
The header tests try to compile each header. Some UAPI headers depend on libc headers so they need a full userspace toolchain to build. This dependency is expressed in kconfig as a dependency on CC_CAN_LINK. Many kernel builds do not satisfy CC_CAN_LINK as they only use a minimal kernel (cross-) compiler. In those configurations the UAPI headers are not tested at all. However most UAPI headers do not even depend on any libc headers, and such dependencies are undesired in any case. Also the static analysis performed by headers_check.pl does not need CC_CAN_LINK. Drop the hard dependency on CC_CAN_LINK and instead skip the affected compilation step for exactly those headers which require libc.

fs: use nullfs unconditionally as the real rootfs
Remove the "nullfs_rootfs" boot parameter and simply always use nullfs. The mutable rootfs will be mounted on top of it. Systems that don't use pivot_root() to pivot away from the real rootfs will have an additional mount stick around but that shouldn't be a problem at all. If it is we'll rever this commit. This also simplifies the boot process and removes the need for the traditional switch_root workarounds.

fs: add immutable rootfs
Currently pivot_root() doesn't work on the real rootfs because it
cannot be unmounted. Userspace has to do a recursive removal of the
initramfs contents manually before continuing the boot.
Really all we want from the real rootfs is to serve as the parent mount
for anything that is actually useful such as the tmpfs or ramfs for
initramfs unpacking or the rootfs itself. There's no need for the real
rootfs to actually be anything meaningful or useful. Add a immutable
rootfs called "nullfs" that can be selected via the "nullfs_rootfs"
kernel command line option.
The kernel will mount a tmpfs/ramfs on top of it, unpack the initramfs
and fire up userspace which mounts the rootfs and can then just do:
chdir(rootfs);
pivot_root(".", ".");
umount2(".", MNT_DETACH);
and be done with it. (Ofc, userspace can also choose to retain the
initramfs contents by using something like pivot_root(".", "/initramfs")
without unmounting it.)
Technically this also means that the rootfs mount in unprivileged
namespaces doesn't need to become MNT_LOCKED anymore as it's guaranteed
that the immutable rootfs remains permanently empty so there cannot be
anything revealed by unmounting the covering mount.
In the future this will also allow us to create completely empty mount
namespaces without risking to leak anything.
systemd already handles this all correctly as it tries to pivot_root()
first and falls back to MS_MOVE only when that fails.
This goes back to various discussion in previous years and a LPC 2024
presentation about this very topic.

kbuild: Sync kconfig when PAHOLE_VERSION changes
This patch implements kconfig re-sync when the pahole version changes between builds, similar to how it happens for compiler version change via CC_VERSION_TEXT. Define PAHOLE_VERSION in the top-level Makefile and export it for config builds. Set CONFIG_PAHOLE_VERSION default to the exported variable. Kconfig records the PAHOLE_VERSION value in include/config/auto.conf.cmd [1]. The Makefile includes auto.conf.cmd, so if PAHOLE_VERSION changes between builds, make detects a dependency change and triggers syncconfig to update the kconfig [2]. For external module builds, add a warning message in the prepare target, similar to the existing compiler version mismatch warning. Note that if pahole is not installed or available, PAHOLE_VERSION is set to 0 by pahole-version.sh, so the (un)installation of pahole is treated as a version change. See previous discussions for context [3].

perf: Add APIs to create/release mediated guest vPMUs
Currently, exposing PMU capabilities to a KVM guest is done by emulating
guest PMCs via host perf events, i.e. by having KVM be "just" another user
of perf. As a result, the guest and host are effectively competing for
resources, and emulating guest accesses to vPMU resources requires
expensive actions (expensive relative to the native instruction). The
overhead and resource competition results in degraded guest performance
and ultimately very poor vPMU accuracy.
To address the issues with the perf-emulated vPMU, introduce a "mediated
vPMU", where the data plane (PMCs and enable/disable knobs) is exposed
directly to the guest, but the control plane (event selectors and access
to fixed counters) is managed by KVM (via MSR interceptions). To allow
host perf usage of the PMU to (partially) co-exist with KVM/guest usage
of the PMU, KVM and perf will coordinate to a world switch between host
perf context and guest vPMU context near VM-Enter/VM-Exit.
Add two exported APIs, perf_{create,release}_mediated_pmu(), to allow KVM
to create and release a mediated PMU instance (per VM). Because host perf
context will be deactivated while the guest is running, mediated PMU usage
will be mutually exclusive with perf analysis of the guest, i.e. perf
events that do NOT exclude the guest will not behave as expected.
To avoid silent failure of !exclude_guest perf events, disallow creating a
mediated PMU if there are active !exclude_guest events, and on the perf
side, disallowing creating new !exclude_guest perf events while there is
at least one active mediated PMU.
Exempt PMU resources that do not support mediated PMU usage, i.e. that are
outside the scope/view of KVM's vPMU and will not be swapped out while the
guest is running.
Guard mediated PMU with a new kconfig to help readers identify code paths
that are unique to mediated PMU support, and to allow for adding arch-
specific hooks without stubs. KVM x86 is expected to be the only KVM
architecture to support a mediated PMU in the near future (e.g. arm64 is
trending toward a partitioned PMU implementation), and KVM x86 will select
PERF_GUEST_MEDIATED_PMU unconditionally, i.e. won't need stubs.
Immediately select PERF_GUEST_MEDIATED_PMU when KVM x86 is enabled so that
all paths are compile tested. Full KVM support is on its way...

Some filesystems use a kinda-sorta controlled dentry refcount leak to pin
dentries of created objects in dcache (and undo it when removing those).
Reference is grabbed and not released, but it's not actually _stored_
anywhere. That works, but it's hard to follow and verify; among other
things, we have no way to tell _which_ of the increments is intended
to be an unpaired one. Worse, on removal we need to decide whether
the reference had already been dropped, which can be non-trivial if
that removal is on umount and we need to figure out if this dentry is
pinned due to e.g. unlink() not done. Usually that is handled by using
kill_litter_super() as ->kill_sb(), but there are open-coded special
cases of the same (consider e.g. /proc/self).
Things get simpler if we introduce a new dentry flag (DCACHE_PERSISTENT)
marking those "leaked" dentries. Having it set claims responsibility
for +1 in refcount.
The end result this series is aiming for:
* get these unbalanced dget() and dput() replaced with new primitives that
would, in addition to adjusting refcount, set and clear persistency flag.
* instead of having kill_litter_super() mess with removing the remaining
"leaked" references (e.g. for all tmpfs files that hadn't been removed
prior to umount), have the regular shrink_dcache_for_umount() strip
DCACHE_PERSISTENT of all dentries, dropping the corresponding
reference if it had been set. After that kill_litter_super() becomes
an equivalent of kill_anon_super().
Doing that in a single step is not feasible - it would affect too many places
in too many filesystems. It has to be split into a series.
This work has really started early in 2024; quite a few preliminary pieces
have already gone into mainline. This chunk is finally getting to the
meat of that stuff - infrastructure and most of the conversions to it.
Some pieces are still sitting in the local branches, but the bulk of
that stuff is here.

A large overhaul of the restartable sequences and CID management:
The recent enablement of RSEQ in glibc resulted in regressions which are
caused by the related overhead. It turned out that the decision to invoke
the exit to user work was not really a decision. More or less each
context switch caused that. There is a long list of small issues which
sums up nicely and results in a 3-4% regression in I/O benchmarks.
The other detail which caused issues due to extra work in context switch
and task migration is the CID (memory context ID) management. It also
requires to use a task work to consolidate the CID space, which is
executed in the context of an arbitrary task and results in sporadic
uncontrolled exit latencies.
The rewrite addresses this by:
- Removing deprecated and long unsupported functionality
- Moving the related data into dedicated data structures which are
optimized for fast path processing.
- Caching values so actual decisions can be made
- Replacing the current implementation with a optimized inlined variant.
- Separating fast and slow path for architectures which use the generic
entry code, so that only fault and error handling goes into the
TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME handler.
- Rewriting the CID management so that it becomes mostly invisible in the
context switch path. That moves the work of switching modes into the
fork/exit path, which is a reasonable tradeoff. That work is only
required when a process creates more threads than the cpuset it is
allowed to run on or when enough threads exit after that. An artificial
thread pool benchmarks which triggers this did not degrade, it actually
improved significantly.
The main effect in migration heavy scenarios is that runqueue lock held
time and therefore contention goes down significantly.

Pull rseq updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"A large overhaul of the restartable sequences and CID management:
The recent enablement of RSEQ in glibc resulted in regressions which
are caused by the related overhead. It turned out that the decision to
invoke the exit to user work was not really a decision. More or less
each context switch caused that. There is a long list of small issues
which sums up nicely and results in a 3-4% regression in I/O
benchmarks.
The other detail which caused issues due to extra work in context
switch and task migration is the CID (memory context ID) management.
It also requires to use a task work to consolidate the CID space,
which is executed in the context of an arbitrary task and results in
sporadic uncontrolled exit latencies.
The rewrite addresses this by:
- Removing deprecated and long unsupported functionality
- Moving the related data into dedicated data structures which are
optimized for fast path processing.
- Caching values so actual decisions can be made
- Replacing the current implementation with a optimized inlined
variant.
- Separating fast and slow path for architectures which use the
generic entry code, so that only fault and error handling goes into
the TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME handler.
- Rewriting the CID management so that it becomes mostly invisible in
the context switch path. That moves the work of switching modes
into the fork/exit path, which is a reasonable tradeoff. That work
is only required when a process creates more threads than the
cpuset it is allowed to run on or when enough threads exit after
that. An artificial thread pool benchmarks which triggers this did
not degrade, it actually improved significantly.
The main effect in migration heavy scenarios is that runqueue lock
held time and therefore contention goes down significantly"

Pull cred guard updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains substantial credential infrastructure improvements
adding guard-based credential management that simplifies code and
eliminates manual reference counting in many subsystems.
Features:
- Kernel Credential Guards
Add with_kernel_creds() and scoped_with_kernel_creds() guards that
allow using the kernel credentials without allocating and copying
them. This was requested by Linus after seeing repeated
prepare_kernel_creds() calls that duplicate the kernel credentials
only to drop them again later.
The new guards completely avoid the allocation and never expose the
temporary variable to hold the kernel credentials anywhere in
callers.
- Generic Credential Guards
Add scoped_with_creds() guards for the common override_creds() and
revert_creds() pattern. This builds on earlier work that made
override_creds()/revert_creds() completely reference count free.
- Prepare Credential Guards
Add prepare credential guards for the more complex pattern of
preparing a new set of credentials and overriding the current
credentials with them:
- prepare_creds()
- modify new creds
- override_creds()
- revert_creds()
- put_cred()
Cleanups:
- Make init_cred static since it should not be directly accessed
- Add kernel_cred() helper to properly access the kernel credentials
- Fix scoped_class() macro that was introduced two cycles ago
- coredump: split out do_coredump() from vfs_coredump() for cleaner

Pull namespace updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains substantial namespace infrastructure changes including a new
system call, active reference counting, and extensive header cleanups.
The branch depends on the shared kbuild branch for -fms-extensions support.
Features:
- listns() system call
Add a new listns() system call that allows userspace to iterate
through namespaces in the system. This provides a programmatic
interface to discover and inspect namespaces, addressing
longstanding limitations:
Currently, there is no direct way for userspace to enumerate
namespaces. Applications must resort to scanning /proc/*/ns/ across
all processes, which is:
- Inefficient - requires iterating over all processes
- Incomplete - misses namespaces not attached to any running
process but kept alive by file descriptors, bind mounts, or
parent references
- Permission-heavy - requires access to /proc for many processes
- No ordering or ownership information
- No filtering per namespace type
The listns() system call solves these problems:
ssize_t listns(const struct ns_id_req *req, u64 *ns_ids,
size_t nr_ns_ids, unsigned int flags);
struct ns_id_req {
__u32 size;
__u32 spare;
__u64 ns_id;
struct /* listns */ {
__u32 ns_type;
__u32 spare2;
__u64 user_ns_id;
};
};
Features include:
- Pagination support for large namespace sets
- Filtering by namespace type (MNT_NS, NET_NS, USER_NS, etc.)
- Filtering by owning user namespace
- Permission checks respecting namespace isolation
- Active Reference Counting
Introduce an active reference count that tracks namespace
visibility to userspace. A namespace is visible in the following
cases:
- The namespace is in use by a task
- The namespace is persisted through a VFS object (namespace file
descriptor or bind-mount)
- The namespace is a hierarchical type and is the parent of child
namespaces
The active reference count does not regulate lifetime (that's still
done by the normal reference count) - it only regulates visibility
to namespace file handles and listns().
This prevents resurrection of namespaces that are pinned only for
internal kernel reasons (e.g., user namespaces held by
file->f_cred, lazy TLB references on idle CPUs, etc.) which should
not be accessible via (1)-(3).
- Unified Namespace Tree
Introduce a unified tree structure for all namespaces with:
- Fixed IDs assigned to initial namespaces
- Lookup based solely on inode number
- Maintained list of owned namespaces per user namespace
- Simplified rbtree comparison helpers
Cleanups
- Header Reorganization:
- Move namespace types into separate header (ns_common_types.h)
- Decouple nstree from ns_common header
- Move nstree types into separate header
- Switch to new ns_tree_{node,root} structures with helper functions
- Use guards for ns_tree_lock
- Initial Namespace Reference Count Optimization
- Make all reference counts on initial namespaces a nop to avoid
pointless cacheline ping-pong for namespaces that can never go
away
- Drop custom reference count initialization for initial namespaces
- Add NS_COMMON_INIT() macro and use it for all namespaces
- pid: rely on common reference count behavior
- Miscellaneous Cleanups
- Rename exit_task_namespaces() to exit_nsproxy_namespaces()
- Rename is_initial_namespace() and make argument const
- Use boolean to indicate anonymous mount namespace
- Simplify owner list iteration in nstree
- nsfs: raise SB_I_NODEV, SB_I_NOEXEC, and DCACHE_DONTCACHE explicitly
- nsfs: use inode_just_drop()
- pidfs: raise DCACHE_DONTCACHE explicitly
- pidfs: simplify PIDFD_GET__NAMESPACE ioctls
- libfs: allow to specify s_d_flags
- cgroup: add cgroup namespace to tree after owner is set
- nsproxy: fix free_nsproxy() and simplify create_new_namespaces()
Fixes:
- setns(pidfd, ...) race condition
Fix a subtle race when using pidfds with setns(). When the target
task exits after prepare_nsset() but before commit_nsset(), the
namespace's active reference count might have been dropped. If
setns() then installs the namespaces, it would bump the active
reference count from zero without taking the required reference on
the owner namespace, leading to underflow when later decremented.
The fix resurrects the ownership chain if necessary - if the caller
succeeded in grabbing passive references, the setns() should
succeed even if the target task exits or gets reaped.
- Return EFAULT on put_user() error instead of success
- Make sure references are dropped outside of RCU lock (some
namespaces like mount namespace sleep when putting the last
reference)
- Don't skip active reference count initialization for network
namespace
- Add asserts for active refcount underflow
- Add asserts for initial namespace reference counts (both passive
and active)
- ipc: enable is_ns_init_id() assertions
- Fix kernel-doc comments for internal nstree functions
- Selftests
- 15 active reference count tests
- 9 listns() functionality tests
- 7 listns() permission tests
- 12 inactive namespace resurrection tests
- 3 threaded active reference count tests
- commit_creds() active reference tests
- Pagination and stress tests
- EFAULT handling test
- nsid tests fixes"

convert ramfs and tmpfs
Quite a bit is already done by infrastructure changes (simple_link(),
simple_unlink()) - all that is left is replacing d_instantiate() +
pinning dget() (in ->symlink() and ->mknod()) with d_make_persistent(),
and, in case of shmem, using simple_unlink() and simple_link() in
->unlink() and ->link() resp., instead of open-coding those there.
Since d_make_persistent() accepts (and hashes) unhashed ones, shmem
situation gets simpler - we no longer care whether ->lookup() has hashed
the sucker.
With that done, we don't need kill_litter_super() for these filesystems
anymore - by the umount time all remaining dentries will be marked
persistent and kill_litter_super() will boil down to call of
kill_anon_super().
The same goes for devtmpfs and rootfs - they are handled by
ramfs or by shmem, depending upon config.
NB: strictly speaking, both devtmpfs and rootfs ought to use
ramfs_kill_sb() if they end up using ramfs; that's a separate
story and the only impact of "just use kill_{litter,anon}_super()"
is that we fail to free their sb->s_fs_info... on reboot.
That's orthogonal to the changes in this series - kill_litter_super()
is identical to kill_anon_super() for those at this point.

kbuild: allow architectures to override CC_CAN_LINK
The generic test for CC_CAN_LINK assumes that all architectures use -m32 and -m64 to switch between 32-bit and 64-bit compilation. This is overly simplistic. Architectures may use other flags (-mabi, -m31, etc.) or may also require byte order handling (-mlittle-endian, -EL). Expressing all of the different possibilities will be very complicated and brittle. Instead allow architectures to supply their own logic which will be easy to understand and evolve. Both the boolean ARCH_HAS_CC_CAN_LINK and the string ARCH_USERFLAGS need to be implemented as kconfig does not allow the reuse of string options.

rust: enable slice_flatten feature and provide it through an extension trait
In Rust 1.80, the previously unstable `slice::flatten` family of methods have been stabilized and renamed to `slice::as_flattened`. This creates an issue as we want to use `as_flattened`, but need to support the MSRV (which at the moment is Rust 1.78) where it is named `flatten`. Solve this by enabling the `slice_flatten` feature, and providing an `as_flattened` implementation through an extension trait for compiler versions where it is not available. The trait is then exported from the prelude, making the `as_flattened` family of methods transparently available for all supported compiler versions. This extension trait can be removed once the MSRV passes 1.80.

init/main.c: wrap long kernel cmdline when printing to logs
The kernel cmdline length is allowed to be longer than what printk can handle. When this happens the cmdline that's printed to the kernel ring buffer at bootup is cutoff and some kernel cmdline options are "hidden" from the logs. This undercuts the usefulness of the log message. Specifically, grepping for COMMAND_LINE_SIZE shows that 2048 is common and some architectures even define it as 4096. s390 allows a CONFIG-based maximum up to 1MB (though it's not expected that anyone will go over the default max of 4096 [1]). The maximum message pr_notice() seems to be able to handle (based on experiment) is 1021 characters. This appears to be based on the current value of PRINTKRB_RECORD_MAX as 1024 and the fact that pr_notice() spends 2 characters on the loglevel prefix and we have a '\n' at the end. While it would be possible to increase the limits of printk() (and therefore pr_notice()) somewhat, it doesn't appear possible to increase it enough to fully include a 2048-character cmdline without breaking userspace. Specifically on at least two tested userspaces (ChromeOS plus the Debian-based distro I'm typing this message on) the `dmesg` tool reads lines from `/dev/kmsg` in 2047-byte chunks. As per `Documentation/ABI/testing/dev-kmsg`: Every read() from the opened device node receives one record of the kernel's printk buffer. ... Messages in the record ring buffer get overwritten as whole, there are never partial messages received by read(). We simply can't fit a 2048-byte cmdline plus the "Kernel command line:" prefix plus info about time/log_level/etc in a 2047-byte read. The above means that if we want to avoid the truncation we need to do some type of wrapping of the cmdline when printing. Add wrapping to the printout of the kernel command line. By default, the wrapping is set to 1021 characters to avoid breaking anyone, but allow wrapping to be set lower by a Kconfig knob "CONFIG_CMDLINE_LOG_WRAP_IDEAL_LEN". Any tools that are correctly parsing the cmdline today (because it is less than 1021 characters) will see no difference in their behavior. The format of wrapped output is designed to be matched by anyone using "grep" to search for the cmdline and also to be easy for tools to handle. Anyone who is sure their tools (if any) handle the wrapped format can choose a lower wrapping value and have prettier output. Setting CONFIG_CMDLINE_LOG_WRAP_IDEAL_LEN to 0 fully disables the wrapping logic. This means that long command lines will be truncated again, but this config could be set if command lines are expected to be long and userspace is known not to handle parsing logs with the wrapping. Wrapping is based on spaces, ignoring quotes. All lines are prefixed with "Kernel command line: " and lines that are not the last line have a " \" suffix added to them. The prefix and suffix count towards the line length for wrapping purposes. The ideal length will be exceeded if no appropriate place to wrap is found. The wrapping function added here is fairly generic and could be made a library function (somewhat like print_hex_dump()) if it's needed elsewhere in the kernel. However, having printk() directly incorporate this wrapping would be unlikely to be a good idea since it would break printouts into more than one record without any obvious common line prefix to tie lines together. It would also be extra overhead when, in general, kernel log message should simply be kept smaller than 1021 bytes.

The simple_strtoul() function is deprecated in favor of kstrtoint() family functions which provide better error handling and are recommended for new code and replacements.

cred: make init_cred static
There's zero need to expose struct init_cred. The very few places that need access can just go through init_task which is already exported.

rseq: Switch to fast path processing on exit to user
Now that all bits and pieces are in place, hook the RSEQ handling fast path
function into exit_to_user_mode_prepare() after the TIF work bits have been
handled. If case of fast path failure, TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME has been raised
and the caller needs to take another turn through the TIF handling slow
path.
This only works for architectures which use the generic entry code.
Architectures who still have their own incomplete hacks are not supported
and won't be.
This results in the following improvements:

initrd: Replace simple_strtol with kstrtoint to improve ramdisk_start_setup
Replace simple_strtol() with the recommended kstrtoint() for parsing the 'ramdisk_start=' boot parameter. Unlike simple_strtol(), which returns a a long, kstrtoint() converts the string directly to an integer and avoids implicit casting. Check the return value of kstrtoint() and reject invalid values. This adds error handling while preserving existing behavior for valid values, and removes use of the deprecated simple_strtol() helper.

Pull hardening updates from Kees Cook:
"One notable addition is the creation of the 'transitional' keyword for
kconfig so CONFIG renaming can go more smoothly.
This has been a long-standing deficiency, and with the renaming of
CONFIG_CFI_CLANG to CONFIG_CFI (since GCC will soon have KCFI
support), this came up again.
The breadth of the diffstat is mainly this renaming.

Each specific namespace type (net, cgroup, mnt, ...) embedds a struct ns_common which carries the reference count of the namespace and so on. We open-coded and cargo-culted so many quirks for each namespace type that it just wasn't scalable anymore. So given there's a bunch of new changes coming in that area I've started cleaning all of this up. The core change is to make it possible to correctly initialize every namespace uniformly and derive the correct initialization settings from the type of the namespace such as namespace operations, namespace type and so on. This leaves the new ns_common_init() function with a single parameter which is the specific namespace type which derives the correct parameters statically. This also means the compiler will yell as soon as someone does something remotely fishy. The ns_common_init() addition also allows us to remove ns_alloc_inum() and drops any special-casing of the initial network namespace in the network namespace initialization code that Linus complained about. Another part is reworking the reference counting. The reference counting was open-coded and copy-pasted for each namespace type even though they all followed the same rules. This also removes all open accesses to the reference count and makes it private and only uses a very small set of dedicated helpers to manipulate them just like we do for e.g., files. In addition this generalizes the mount namespace iteration infrastructure introduced a few cycles ago. As reminder, the vfs makes it possible to iterate sequentially and bidirectionally through all mount namespaces on the system or all mount namespaces that the caller holds privilege over. This allow userspace to iterate over all mounts in all mount namespaces using the listmount() and statmount() system call. Each mount namespace has a unique identifier for the lifetime of the systems that is exposed to userspace. The network namespace also has a unique identifier working exactly the same way. This extends the concept to all other namespace types. The new nstree type makes it possible to lookup namespaces purely by their identifier and to walk the namespace list sequentially and bidirectionally for all namespace types, allowing userspace to iterate through all namespaces. Looking up namespaces in the namespace tree works completely locklessly. This also means we can move the mount namespace onto the generic infrastructure and remove a bunch of code and members from struct mnt_namespace itself. There's a bunch of stuff coming on top of this in the future but for now this uses the generic namespace tree to extend a concept introduced first for pidfs a few cycles ago. For a while now we have supported pidfs file handles for pidfds. This has proven to be very useful. This extends the concept to cover namespaces as well. It is possible to encode and decode namespace file handles using the common name_to_handle_at() and open_by_handle_at() apis. As with pidfs file handles, namespace file handles are exhaustive, meaning it is not required to actually hold a reference to nsfs in able to decode aka open_by_handle_at() a namespace file handle. Instead the FD_NSFS_ROOT constant can be passed which will let the kernel grab a reference to the root of nsfs internally and thus decode the file handle. Namespaces file descriptors can already be derived from pidfds which means they aren't subject to overmount protection bugs. IOW, it's irrelevant if the caller would not have access to an appropriate /proc/<pid>/ns/ directory as they could always just derive the namespace based on a pidfd already. It has the same advantage as pidfds. It's possible to reliably and for the lifetime of the system refer to a namespace without pinning any resources and to compare them trivially. Permission checking is kept simple. If the caller is located in the namespace the file handle refers to they are able to open it otherwise they must hold privilege over the owning namespace of the relevant namespace. The namespace file handle layout is exposed as uapi and has a stable and extensible format. For now it simply contains the namespace identifier, the namespace type, and the inode number. The stable format means that userspace may construct its own namespace file handles without going through name_to_handle_at() as they are already allowed for pidfs and cgroup file handles" * tag 'namespace-6.18-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs: (65 commits) ns: drop assert ns: move ns type into struct ns_common nstree: make struct ns_tree private ns: add ns_debug() ns: simplify ns_common_init() further cgroup: add missing ns_common include ns: use inode initializer for initial namespaces selftests/namespaces: verify initial namespace inode numbers ns: rename to __ns_ref nsfs: port to ns_ref_*() helpers net: port to ns_ref_*() helpers uts: port to ns_ref_*() helpers ipv4: use check_net() net: use check_net() net-sysfs: use check_net() user: port to ns_ref_*() helpers time: port to ns_ref_*() helpers pid: port to ns_ref_*() helpers ipc: port to ns_ref_*() helpers cgroup: port to ns_ref_*() helpers ... |

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the usual selections of misc updates for this cycle.
Features:
- Add "initramfs_options" parameter to set initramfs mount options.
This allows to add specific mount options to the rootfs to e.g.,
limit the memory size
- Add RWF_NOSIGNAL flag for pwritev2()
Add RWF_NOSIGNAL flag for pwritev2. This flag prevents the SIGPIPE
signal from being raised when writing on disconnected pipes or
sockets. The flag is handled directly by the pipe filesystem and
converted to the existing MSG_NOSIGNAL flag for sockets
- Allow to pass pid namespace as procfs mount option
Ever since the introduction of pid namespaces, procfs has had very
implicit behaviour surrounding them (the pidns used by a procfs
mount is auto-selected based on the mounting process's active
pidns, and the pidns itself is basically hidden once the mount has
been constructed)
This implicit behaviour has historically meant that userspace was
required to do some special dances in order to configure the pidns
of a procfs mount as desired. Examples include:
* In order to bypass the mnt_too_revealing() check, Kubernetes
creates a procfs mount from an empty pidns so that user
namespaced containers can be nested (without this, the nested
containers would fail to mount procfs)
But this requires forking off a helper process because you cannot
just one-shot this using mount(2)
* Container runtimes in general need to fork into a container
before configuring its mounts, which can lead to security issues
in the case of shared-pidns containers (a privileged process in
the pidns can interact with your container runtime process)
While SUID_DUMP_DISABLE and user namespaces make this less of an
issue, the strict need for this due to a minor uAPI wart is kind
of unfortunate
Things would be much easier if there was a way for userspace to
just specify the pidns they want. So this pull request contains
changes to implement a new "pidns" argument which can be set
using fsconfig(2):
fsconfig(procfd, FSCONFIG_SET_FD, "pidns", NULL, nsfd);
fsconfig(procfd, FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "pidns", "/proc/self/ns/pid", 0);
or classic mount(2) / mount(8):
// mount -t proc -o pidns=/proc/self/ns/pid proc /tmp/proc
mount("proc", "/tmp/proc", "proc", MS_..., "pidns=/proc/self/ns/pid");
Cleanups:
- Remove the last references to EXPORT_OP_ASYNC_LOCK
- Make file_remove_privs_flags() static
- Remove redundant __GFP_NOWARN when GFP_NOWAIT is used
- Use try_cmpxchg() in start_dir_add()
- Use try_cmpxchg() in sb_init_done_wq()
- Replace offsetof() with struct_size() in ioctl_file_dedupe_range()
- Remove vfs_ioctl() export
- Replace rwlock() with spinlock in epoll code as rwlock causes
priority inversion on preempt rt kernels
- Make ns_entries in fs/proc/namespaces const

in may_open()
- Use struct_size() in dir_add() in the initramfs code
- Use str_plural() in rd_load_image()

- Rename generic_delete_inode() to inode_just_drop() and
generic_drop_inode() to inode_generic_drop()
- Remove unused arguments from fcntl_{g,s}et_rw_hint()
Fixes:

- Fix spelling mistake
- Always return zero from replace_fd() instead of the file descriptor
number
- Limit the size for copy_file_range() in compat mode to prevent a
signed overflow
- Fix debugfs mount options not being applied
- Verify the inode mode when loading it from disk in minixfs
- Verify the inode mode when loading it from disk in cramfs
- Don't trigger automounts with RESOLVE_NO_XDEV
If openat2() was called with RESOLVE_NO_XDEV it didn't traverse
through automounts, but could still trigger them
- Add FL_RECLAIM flag to show_fl_flags() macro so it appears in
tracepoints
- Fix unused variable warning in rd_load_image() on s390

Fix CC_HAS_ASM_GOTO_OUTPUT on non-x86 architectures
There's a silly problem with the CC_HAS_ASM_GOTO_OUTPUT test: even with
a working compiler it will fail on some architectures simply because it
uses the mnemonic "jmp" for testing the inline asm.
And as reported by Geert, not all architectures use that mnemonic, so
the test fails spuriously on such platforms (including arm and riscv,
but also several other architectures).
This issue avoided any obvious test failures because the build still
works thanks to falling back on the old non-asm-goto code, which just
generates worse code.
Just use an empty asm statement instead.

kbuild: Disable CC_HAS_ASM_GOTO_OUTPUT on clang < 17
clang < 17 fails to use scope local labels with CONFIG_CC_HAS_ASM_GOTO_OUTPUT=y:
{
__label__ local_lbl;
...
unsafe_get_user(uval, uaddr, local_lbl);
...
return 0;
local_lbl:
return -EFAULT;
}
when two such scopes exist in the same function:
error: cannot jump from this asm goto statement to one of its possible targets
There are other failure scenarios. Shuffling code around slightly makes it
worse and fail even with one instance.
That issue prevents using local labels for a cleanup based user access
mechanism.
After failed attempts to provide a simple enough test case for the 'depends
on' test in Kconfig, the initial cure was to mark ASM goto broken on clang
versions < 17 to get this road block out of the way.
But Nathan pointed out that this is a known clang issue and indeed affects
clang < version 17 in combination with cleanup(). It's not even required to
use local labels for that.
The clang issue tracker has a small enough test case, which can be used as
a test in the 'depends on' section of CC_HAS_ASM_GOTO_OUTPUT:
void bar(void **);
void* baz(void);
int foo (void) {
{
asm goto("jmp %l0"::::l0);
return 0;
l0:
return 1;
}
void *x __attribute__((cleanup(bar))) = baz();
{
asm goto("jmp %l0"::::l1);
return 42;
l1:
return 0xff;
}
}
Add another dependency to config CC_HAS_ASM_GOTO_OUTPUT for it and use the
clang issue tracker test case for detection by condensing it to obfuscated
C-code contest format. This reliably catches the problem on clang < 17 and
did not show any issues on the non broken GCC versions.
That test might be sufficient to catch all issues and therefore could
replace the existing test, but keeping that around does no harm either.
Thanks to Nathan for pointing to the relevant clang issue!

init: handle bootloader identifier in kernel parameters
BootLoaders (Grub, LILO, etc) may pass an identifier such as "BOOT_IMAGE= /boot/vmlinuz-x.y.z" to kernel parameters. But these identifiers are not recognized by the kernel itself so will be passed to userspace. However user space init program also don't recognize it. KEXEC/KDUMP (kexec-tools) may also pass an identifier such as "kexec" on some architectures. We cannot change BootLoader's behavior, because this behavior exists for many years, and there are already user space programs search BOOT_IMAGE= in /proc/cmdline to obtain the kernel image locations: https://github.com/linuxdeepin/deepin-ab-recovery/blob/master/util.go (search getBootOptions) https://github.com/linuxdeepin/deepin-ab-recovery/blob/master/main.go (search getKernelReleaseWithBootOption) So the the best way is handle (ignore) it by the kernel itself, which can avoid such boot warnings (if we use something like init=/bin/bash, bootloader identifier can even cause a crash): Kernel command line: BOOT_IMAGE=(hd0,1)/vmlinuz-6.x root=/dev/sda3 ro console=tty Unknown kernel command line parameters "BOOT_IMAGE=(hd0,1)/vmlinuz-6.x", will be passed to user space.

cgroup: replace global percpu_rwsem with per threadgroup resem when writing to cgroup.procs
The static usage pattern of creating a cgroup, enabling controllers,
and then seeding it with CLONE_INTO_CGROUP doesn't require write
locking cgroup_threadgroup_rwsem and thus doesn't benefit from this
patch.
To avoid affecting other users, the per threadgroup rwsem is only used
when the favordynmods is enabled.
As computer hardware advances, modern systems are typically equipped
with many CPU cores and large amounts of memory, enabling the deployment
of numerous applications. On such systems, container creation and
deletion become frequent operations, making cgroup process migration no
longer a cold path. This leads to noticeable contention with common
process operations such as fork, exec, and exit.
To alleviate the contention between cgroup process migration and
operations like process fork, this patch modifies lock to take the write
lock on signal_struct->group_rwsem when writing pid to
cgroup.procs/threads instead of holding a global write lock.
Cgroup process migration has historically relied on
signal_struct->group_rwsem to protect thread group integrity. In commit
<1ed1328792ff> ("sched, cgroup: replace signal_struct->group_rwsem with
a global percpu_rwsem"), this was changed to a global
cgroup_threadgroup_rwsem. The advantage of using a global lock was
simplified handling of process group migrations. This patch retains the
use of the global lock for protecting process group migration, while
reducing contention by using per thread group lock during
cgroup.procs/threads writes.
The locking behavior is as follows:
write cgroup.procs/threads | process fork,exec,exit | process group migration
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
cgroup_lock() | down_read(&g_rwsem) | cgroup_lock()
down_write(&p_rwsem) | down_read(&p_rwsem) | down_write(&g_rwsem)
critical section | critical section | critical section
up_write(&p_rwsem) | up_read(&p_rwsem) | up_write(&g_rwsem)
cgroup_unlock() | up_read(&g_rwsem) | cgroup_unlock()
g_rwsem denotes cgroup_threadgroup_rwsem, p_rwsem denotes
signal_struct->group_rwsem.
This patch eliminates contention between cgroup migration and fork
operations for threads that belong to different thread groups, thereby
reducing the long-tail latency of cgroup migrations and lowering system
load.
With this patch, under heavy fork and exec interference, the long-tail
latency of cgroup migration has been reduced from milliseconds to
microseconds. Under heavy cgroup migration interference, the multi-CPU
score of the spawn test case in UnixBench increased by 9%.

Rust fixes for v6.17 (2nd)
Toolchain and infrastructure:
- Two changes to prepare for the future Rust 1.91.0 release (expected
2025-10-30, currently in nightly): a target specification format
change and a renamed, soon-to-be-stabilized 'core' function.

vdso: Drop Kconfig GENERIC_VDSO_TIME_NS
All architectures implementing time-related functionality in the vDSO are using the generic vDSO library which handles time namespaces properly. Remove the now unnecessary Kconfig symbol. Enables the use of time namespaces on architectures, which use the generic vDSO but did not enable GENERIC_VDSO_TIME_NS, namely MIPS and arm.

Move maple tree initialization that depends only on slab availability
earlier in boot so that it will happen right after mm_core_init().

rust: use the new name Location::file_as_c_str() in Rust >= 1.91.0
As part of the stabilization of Location::file_with_nul(), it was brought up that the with_nul() suffix usually means something else in Rust APIs, so the API is being renamed prior to stabilization [1].

hardening: Require clang 20.1.0 for __counted_by
After an innocuous change in -next that modified a structure that
contains __counted_by, clang-19 start crashing when building certain
files in drivers/gpu/drm/xe. When assertions are enabled, the more
descriptive failure is:
clang: clang/lib/AST/RecordLayoutBuilder.cpp:3335: const ASTRecordLayout &clang::ASTContext::getASTRecordLayout(const RecordDecl *) const: Assertion `D && "Cannot get layout of forward declarations!"' failed.
According to a reverse bisect, a tangential change to the LLVM IR
generation phase of clang during the LLVM 20 development cycle [1]
resolves this problem. Bump the version of clang that enables
CONFIG_CC_HAS_COUNTED_BY to 20.1.0 to ensure that this issue cannot be
hit.

Summary of significant series in this pull request:
- The 4 patch series "mm: ksm: prevent KSM from breaking merging of new
VMAs" from Lorenzo Stoakes addresses an issue with KSM's
PR_SET_MEMORY_MERGE mode: newly mapped VMAs were not eligible for
merging with existing adjacent VMAs.
- The 4 patch series "mm/damon: introduce DAMON_STAT for simple and
practical access monitoring" from SeongJae Park adds a new kernel module
which simplifies the setup and usage of DAMON in production
environments.
- The 6 patch series "stop passing a writeback_control to swap/shmem
writeout" from Christoph Hellwig is a cleanup to the writeback code
which removes a couple of pointers from struct writeback_control.
- The 7 patch series "drivers/base/node.c: optimization and cleanups"
from Donet Tom contains largely uncorrelated cleanups to the NUMA node
setup and management code.
- The 4 patch series "mm: userfaultfd: assorted fixes and cleanups" from
Tal Zussman does some maintenance work on the userfaultfd code.
- The 5 patch series "Readahead tweaks for larger folios" from Ryan
Roberts implements some tuneups for pagecache readahead when it is
reading into order>0 folios.

does that. A 37% reduction in execution time was measured in a
memset+mremap+munmap microbenchmark.
- The 5 patch series "Remove zero_user()" from Matthew Wilcox expunges
zero_user() in favor of the more modern memzero_page().
- The 3 patch series "mm/huge_memory: vmf_insert_folio_*() and
vmf_insert_pfn_pud() fixes" from David Hildenbrand addresses some warts
which David noticed in the huge page code. These were not known to be
causing any issues at this time.
- The 3 patch series "mm/damon: use alloc_migrate_target() for
DAMOS_MIGRATE_{HOT,COLD" from SeongJae Park provides some cleanup and
consolidation work in DAMON.
- The 3 patch series "use vm_flags_t consistently" from Lorenzo Stoakes
uses vm_flags_t in places where we were inappropriately using other
types.
- The 3 patch series "mm/memfd: Reserve hugetlb folios before
allocation" from Vivek Kasireddy increases the reliability of large page
allocation in the memfd code.
- The 14 patch series "mm: Remove pXX_devmap page table bit and pfn_t
type" from Alistair Popple removes several now-unneeded PFN_* flags.
- The 5 patch series "mm/damon: decouple sysfs from core" from SeongJae
Park implememnts some cleanup and maintainability work in the DAMON
sysfs layer.
- The 5 patch series "madvise cleanup" from Lorenzo Stoakes does quite a
lot of cleanup/maintenance work in the madvise() code.
- The 4 patch series "madvise anon_name cleanups" from Vlastimil Babka
provides additional cleanups on top or Lorenzo's effort.
- The 11 patch series "Implement numa node notifier" from Oscar Salvador
creates a standalone notifier for NUMA node memory state changes.
Previously these were lumped under the more general memory on/offline
notifier.
- The 6 patch series "Make MIGRATE_ISOLATE a standalone bit" from Zi Yan
cleans up the pageblock isolation code and fixes a potential issue which
doesn't seem to cause any problems in practice.
- The 5 patch series "selftests/damon: add python and drgn based DAMON
sysfs functionality tests" from SeongJae Park adds additional drgn- and
python-based DAMON selftests which are more comprehensive than the
existing selftest suite.
- The 5 patch series "Misc rework on hugetlb faulting path" from Oscar
Salvador fixes a rather obscure deadlock in the hugetlb fault code and
follows that fix with a series of cleanups.
- The 3 patch series "cma: factor out allocation logic from
__cma_declare_contiguous_nid" from Mike Rapoport rationalizes and cleans
up the highmem-specific code in the CMA allocator.
- The 28 patch series "mm/migration: rework movable_ops page migration
(part 1)" from David Hildenbrand provides cleanups and
future-preparedness to the migration code.
- The 2 patch series "mm/damon: add trace events for auto-tuned
monitoring intervals and DAMOS quota" from SeongJae Park adds some
tracepoints to some DAMON auto-tuning code.
- The 6 patch series "mm/damon: fix misc bugs in DAMON modules" from
SeongJae Park does that.
- The 6 patch series "mm/damon: misc cleanups" from SeongJae Park also
does what it claims.
- The 4 patch series "mm: folio_pte_batch() improvements" from David
Hildenbrand cleans up the large folio PTE batching code.
- The 13 patch series "mm/damon/vaddr: Allow interleaving in
migrate_{hot,cold} actions" from SeongJae Park facilitates dynamic
alteration of DAMON's inter-node allocation policy.
- The 3 patch series "Remove unmap_and_put_page()" from Vishal Moola
provides a couple of page->folio conversions.
- The 4 patch series "mm: per-node proactive reclaim" from Davidlohr
Bueso implements a per-node control of proactive reclaim - beyond the
current memcg-based implementation.
- The 14 patch series "mm/damon: remove damon_callback" from SeongJae
Park replaces the damon_callback interface with a more general and
powerful damon_call()+damos_walk() interface.
- The 10 patch series "mm/mremap: permit mremap() move of multiple VMAs"
from Lorenzo Stoakes implements a number of mremap cleanups (of course)
in preparation for adding new mremap() functionality: newly permit the
remapping of multiple VMAs when the user is specifying MREMAP_FIXED. It
still excludes some specialized situations where this cannot be
performed reliably.
- The 3 patch series "drop hugetlb_free_pgd_range()" from Anthony Yznaga
switches some sparc hugetlb code over to the generic version and removes
the thus-unneeded hugetlb_free_pgd_range().
- The 4 patch series "mm/damon/sysfs: support periodic and automated
stats update" from SeongJae Park augments the present
userspace-requested update of DAMON sysfs monitoring files. Automatic
update is now provided, along with a tunable to control the update

Merge tag 'mm-stable-2025-07-30-15-25' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm
Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
"As usual, many cleanups. The below blurbiage describes 42 patchsets.
21 of those are partially or fully cleanup work. "cleans up",
"cleanup", "maintainability", "rationalizes", etc.
I never knew the MM code was so dirty.
"mm: ksm: prevent KSM from breaking merging of new VMAs" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
addresses an issue with KSM's PR_SET_MEMORY_MERGE mode: newly
mapped VMAs were not eligible for merging with existing adjacent
VMAs.
"mm/damon: introduce DAMON_STAT for simple and practical access monitoring" (SeongJae Park)
adds a new kernel module which simplifies the setup and usage of
DAMON in production environments.
"stop passing a writeback_control to swap/shmem writeout" (Christoph Hellwig)
is a cleanup to the writeback code which removes a couple of
pointers from struct writeback_control.
"drivers/base/node.c: optimization and cleanups" (Donet Tom)
contains largely uncorrelated cleanups to the NUMA node setup and
management code.
"mm: userfaultfd: assorted fixes and cleanups" (Tal Zussman)
does some maintenance work on the userfaultfd code.
"Readahead tweaks for larger folios" (Ryan Roberts)
implements some tuneups for pagecache readahead when it is reading
into order>0 folios.
"selftests/mm: Tweaks to the cow test" (Mark Brown)
provides some cleanups and consistency improvements to the
selftests code.
"Optimize mremap() for large folios" (Dev Jain)
does that. A 37% reduction in execution time was measured in a
memset+mremap+munmap microbenchmark.
"Remove zero_user()" (Matthew Wilcox)
expunges zero_user() in favor of the more modern memzero_page().
"mm/huge_memory: vmf_insert_folio_*() and vmf_insert_pfn_pud() fixes" (David Hildenbrand)
addresses some warts which David noticed in the huge page code.
These were not known to be causing any issues at this time.
"mm/damon: use alloc_migrate_target() for DAMOS_MIGRATE_{HOT,COLD" (SeongJae Park)
provides some cleanup and consolidation work in DAMON.
"use vm_flags_t consistently" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
uses vm_flags_t in places where we were inappropriately using other
types.
"mm/memfd: Reserve hugetlb folios before allocation" (Vivek Kasireddy)
increases the reliability of large page allocation in the memfd
code.
"mm: Remove pXX_devmap page table bit and pfn_t type" (Alistair Popple)
removes several now-unneeded PFN_* flags.
"mm/damon: decouple sysfs from core" (SeongJae Park)
implememnts some cleanup and maintainability work in the DAMON
sysfs layer.
"madvise cleanup" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
does quite a lot of cleanup/maintenance work in the madvise() code.
"madvise anon_name cleanups" (Vlastimil Babka)
provides additional cleanups on top or Lorenzo's effort.
"Implement numa node notifier" (Oscar Salvador)
creates a standalone notifier for NUMA node memory state changes.
Previously these were lumped under the more general memory
on/offline notifier.
"Make MIGRATE_ISOLATE a standalone bit" (Zi Yan)
cleans up the pageblock isolation code and fixes a potential issue
which doesn't seem to cause any problems in practice.
"selftests/damon: add python and drgn based DAMON sysfs functionality tests" (SeongJae Park)
adds additional drgn- and python-based DAMON selftests which are
more comprehensive than the existing selftest suite.
"Misc rework on hugetlb faulting path" (Oscar Salvador)
fixes a rather obscure deadlock in the hugetlb fault code and
follows that fix with a series of cleanups.
"cma: factor out allocation logic from __cma_declare_contiguous_nid" (Mike Rapoport)
rationalizes and cleans up the highmem-specific code in the CMA
allocator.
"mm/migration: rework movable_ops page migration (part 1)" (David Hildenbrand)
provides cleanups and future-preparedness to the migration code.
"mm/damon: add trace events for auto-tuned monitoring intervals and DAMOS quota" (SeongJae Park)
adds some tracepoints to some DAMON auto-tuning code.
"mm/damon: fix misc bugs in DAMON modules" (SeongJae Park)
does that.
"mm/damon: misc cleanups" (SeongJae Park)
also does what it claims.
"mm: folio_pte_batch() improvements" (David Hildenbrand)
cleans up the large folio PTE batching code.
"mm/damon/vaddr: Allow interleaving in migrate_{hot,cold} actions" (SeongJae Park)
facilitates dynamic alteration of DAMON's inter-node allocation
policy.
"Remove unmap_and_put_page()" (Vishal Moola)
provides a couple of page->folio conversions.
"mm: per-node proactive reclaim" (Davidlohr Bueso)
implements a per-node control of proactive reclaim - beyond the
current memcg-based implementation.
"mm/damon: remove damon_callback" (SeongJae Park)
replaces the damon_callback interface with a more general and
powerful damon_call()+damos_walk() interface.
"mm/mremap: permit mremap() move of multiple VMAs" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
implements a number of mremap cleanups (of course) in preparation
for adding new mremap() functionality: newly permit the remapping
of multiple VMAs when the user is specifying MREMAP_FIXED. It still
excludes some specialized situations where this cannot be performed
reliably.
"drop hugetlb_free_pgd_range()" (Anthony Yznaga)
switches some sparc hugetlb code over to the generic version and
removes the thus-unneeded hugetlb_free_pgd_range().
"mm/damon/sysfs: support periodic and automated stats update" (SeongJae Park)
augments the present userspace-requested update of DAMON sysfs
monitoring files. Automatic update is now provided, along with a
tunable to control the update interval.
"Some randome fixes and cleanups to swapfile" (Kemeng Shi)
does what is claims.
"mm: introduce snapshot_page" (Luiz Capitulino and David Hildenbrand)
provides (and uses) a means by which debug-style functions can grab
a copy of a pageframe and inspect it locklessly without tripping
over the races inherent in operating on the live pageframe
directly.
"use per-vma locks for /proc/pid/maps reads" (Suren Baghdasaryan)
addresses the large contention issues which can be triggered by
reads from that procfs file. Latencies are reduced by more than
half in some situations. The series also introduces several new
selftests for the /proc/pid/maps interface.
"__folio_split() clean up" (Zi Yan)
cleans up __folio_split()!
"Optimize mprotect() for large folios" (Dev Jain)
provides some quite large (>3x) speedups to mprotect() when dealing
with large folios.
"selftests/mm: reuse FORCE_READ to replace "asm volatile("" : "+r" (XXX));" and some cleanup" (wang lian)
does some cleanup work in the selftests code.
"tools/testing: expand mremap testing" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
extends the mremap() selftest in several ways, including adding
more checking of Lorenzo's recently added "permit mremap() move of

Scheduler updates for v6.17:
Core scheduler changes:
- Better tracking of maximum lag of tasks in presence of different
slices duration, for better handling of lag in the fair
scheduler. (Vincent Guittot)
- Clean up and standardize #if/#else/#endif markers throughout
the entire scheduler code base (Ingo Molnar)
- Make SMP unconditional: build the SMP scheduler's
data structures and logic on UP kernel too, even though
they are not used, to simplify the scheduler and remove
around 200 #ifdef/[#else]/#endif blocks from the
scheduler. (Ingo Molnar)
- Reorganize cgroup bandwidth control interface handling
for better interfacing with sched_ext (Tejun Heo)
Balancing:
- Bump sd->max_newidle_lb_cost when newidle balance fails (Chris Mason)
- Remove sched_domain_topology_level::flags to simplify the code (Prateek Nayak)
- Simplify and clean up build_sched_topology() (Li Chen)
- Optimize build_sched_topology() on large machines (Li Chen)
Real-time scheduling:
- Add initial version of proxy execution: a mechanism for mutex-owning
tasks to inherit the scheduling context of higher priority waiters.
Currently limited to a single runqueue and conditional on CONFIG_EXPERT,
and other limitations. (John Stultz, Peter Zijlstra, Valentin Schneider)
- Deadline scheduler (Juri Lelli):
- Fix dl_servers initialization order (Juri Lelli)
- Fix DL scheduler's root domain reinitialization logic (Juri Lelli)

(Peter Zijlstra)
Rust changes:
- Make Task, CondVar and PollCondVar methods inline to avoid unnecessary
function calls (Kunwu Chan, Panagiotis Foliadis)
- Add might_sleep() support for Rust code: Rust's "#[track_caller]"
mechanism is used so that Rust's might_sleep() doesn't need to be
defined as a macro (Fujita Tomonori)
- Introduce file_from_location() (Boqun Feng)
Debugging & instrumentation:
- Make clangd usable with scheduler source code files again (Peter Zijlstra)
- tools: Add root_domains_dump.py which dumps root domains info (Juri Lelli)
- tools: Add dl_bw_dump.py for printing bandwidth accounting info (Juri Lelli)
Misc cleanups & fixes:
- Remove play_idle() (Feng Lee)
- Fix check_preemption_disabled() (Sebastian Andrzej Siewior)
- Do not call __put_task_struct() on RT if pi_blocked_on is set
(Luis Claudio R. Goncalves)

This is how these buffers were handled prior to having cloning support, and we can still use that approach as long as the buffers haven't been cloned to another ring. - Cleanup and improvement for uring_cmd, where btrfs was the only user of storing allocated data for the lifetime of the uring_cmd. Clean that up so we can get rid of the need to do that. - Avoid unnecessary memory copies in uring_cmd usage. This is particularly important as a lot of uring_cmd usage necessitates the use of 128b SQEs. - A few updates for recv multishot, where it's now possible to add fairness limits for limiting how much is transferred for each retry loop. Additionally, recv multishot now supports an overall cap as well, where once reached the multishot recv will terminate. The latter is useful for buffer management and juggling many recv streams at the same time. - Add support for returning the TX timestamps via a new socket command. This feature can work in either singleshot or multishot mode, where the latter triggers a completion whenever new timestamps are available. This is an alternative to using the existing error queue. - Add support for an io_uring "mock" file, which is the start of being able to do 100% targeted testing in terms of exercising io_uring request handling. The idea is to have a file type that can be anything the tester would like, and behave exactly how you want it to behave in terms of hitting the code paths you want. - Improve zcrx by using sgtables to de-duplicate and improve dma address handling. - Prep work for supporting larger pages for zcrx. - Various little improvements and fixes. * tag 'for-6.17/io_uring-20250728' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux: (42 commits) io_uring/zcrx: fix leaking pages on sg init fail io_uring/zcrx: don't leak pages on account failure io_uring/zcrx: fix null ifq on area destruction io_uring: fix breakage in EXPERT menu io_uring/cmd: remove struct io_uring_cmd_data btrfs/ioctl: store btrfs_uring_encoded_data in io_btrfs_cmd io_uring/cmd: introduce IORING_URING_CMD_REISSUE flag io_uring/zcrx: account area memory io_uring: export io_[un]account_mem io_uring/net: Support multishot receive len cap io_uring: deduplicate wakeup handling io_uring/net: cast min_not_zero() type io_uring/poll: cleanup apoll freeing io_uring/net: allow multishot receive per-invocation cap io_uring/net: move io_sr_msg->retry_flags to io_sr_msg->flags io_uring/net: use passed in 'len' in io_recv_buf_select() io_uring/zcrx: prepare fallback for larger pages io_uring/zcrx: assert area type in io_zcrx_iov_page io_uring/zcrx: allocate sgtable for umem areas io_uring/zcrx: introduce io_populate_area_dma ... |

io_uring: fix breakage in EXPERT menu
Add a dependency for IO_URING for the GCOV_PROFILE_URING symbol.
Without this patch the EXPERT config menu ends with
"Enable IO uring support" and the menu prompts for
GCOV_PROFILE_URING and IO_URING_MOCK_FILE are not subordinate to it.
This causes all of the EXPERT Kconfig options that follow
GCOV_PROFILE_URING to be display in the "upper" menu (General setup),
just following the EXPERT menu.

mm/vmstat: make MEMCG select VM_EVENT_COUNTERS
The vmstat_text array contains labels for counters displayed in
/proc/vmstat. It is important to keep the labels in sync with the
counters.
There is a BUILD_BUG_ON() check in vmstat_start() that ensures the size of
the vmstat_text is not smaller than VM_EVENT_COUNTERS. This helps to
catch cases where a new counter is added but the label is not. However,
it does not help if a counter is removed but the label remains.
It would be nice to make the BUILD_BUG_ON() check more strict to catch
such cases. However, when compiling with MEMCG enabled but
VM_EVENT_COUNTERS disabled, the vmstat_text array is larger than
NR_VMSTAT_ITEMS.
This issue arises because some elements of the vmstat_text array are
present when either MEMCG or VM_EVENT_COUNTERS is enabled, but
NR_VMSTAT_ITEMS only accounts for these elements if VM_EVENT_COUNTERS is
enabled.
Instead of adjusting the NR_VMSTAT_ITEMS definition to account for MEMCG,
make MEMCG select VM_EVENT_COUNTERS. VM_EVENT_COUNTERS is enabled in most
configurations anyway.

futex: Use RCU-based per-CPU reference counting instead of rcuref_t
The use of rcuref_t for reference counting introduces a performance bottleneck when accessed concurrently by multiple threads during futex operations. Replace rcuref_t with special crafted per-CPU reference counters. The lifetime logic remains the same. The newly allocate private hash starts in FR_PERCPU state. In this state, each futex operation that requires the private hash uses a per-CPU counter (an unsigned int) for incrementing or decrementing the reference count. When the private hash is about to be replaced, the per-CPU counters are migrated to a atomic_t counter mm_struct::futex_atomic. The migration process: - Waiting for one RCU grace period to ensure all users observe the current private hash. This can be skipped if a grace period elapsed since the private hash was assigned. - futex_private_hash::state is set to FR_ATOMIC, forcing all users to use mm_struct::futex_atomic for reference counting. - After a RCU grace period, all users are guaranteed to be using the atomic counter. The per-CPU counters can now be summed up and added to the atomic_t counter. If the resulting count is zero, the hash can be safely replaced. Otherwise, active users still hold a valid reference. - Once the atomic reference count drops to zero, the next futex operation will switch to the new private hash. call_rcu_hurry() is used to speed up transition which otherwise might be delay with RCU_LAZY. There is nothing wrong with using call_rcu(). The side effects would be that on auto scaling the new hash is used later and the SET_SLOTS prctl() will block longer.

io_uring/mock: add basic infra for test mock files
io_uring commands provide an ioctl style interface for files to implement file specific operations. io_uring provides many features and advanced api to commands, and it's getting hard to test as it requires specific files/devices. Add basic infrastucture for creating special mock files that will be implementing the cmd api and using various io_uring features we want to test. It'll also be useful to test some more obscure read/write/polling edge cases in the future.

futex: Temporary disable FUTEX_PRIVATE_HASH
Chris Mason reported a performance regression on big iron. Reports of this kind were usually reported as part of a micro benchmark but Chris' test did mimic his real workload. This makes it a real regression. The root cause is rcuref_get() which is invoked during each futex operation. If all threads of an application do this simultaneously then it leads to cache line bouncing and the performance drops. Disable FUTEX_PRIVATE_HASH entirely for this cycle. The performance regression will be addressed in the following cycle enabling the option again.

rust: Introduce file_from_location()
Most of kernel debugging facilities take a nul-terminated string for file names for a callsite (generated from __FILE__), however the Rust courterpart, Location, would return a Rust string (not nul-terminated) from method .file(). And such a string cannot be passed to C debugging function directly. There is ongoing work to support a Location::file_with_nul() [1], which returns a nul-terminated string from a Location. Since it's still working in progress, and it will take some time before the feature finally gets stabilized and the kernel's minimal rustc version might also take a while to bump to a version that at least has that feature, introduce a file_from_location() function, which returns a warning string if Location::file_with_nul() is not available. This should work in most cases because as for now the known usage of Location::file_with_nul() is only in debugging code (e.g. might_sleep()) and there might be other information reported by the debugging code that could help locate the problematic function, so missing the file name is fine at the moment.

Rust changes for v6.16
Toolchain and infrastructure:
- KUnit '#[test]'s:
- Support KUnit-mapped 'assert!' macros.
The support that landed last cycle was very basic, and the
'assert!' macros panicked since they were the standard library
ones. Now, they are mapped to the KUnit ones in a similar way to
how is done for doctests, reusing the infrastructure there.
With this, a failing test like:
#[test]
fn my_first_test() {
assert_eq!(42, 43);
}
will report:
# my_first_test: ASSERTION FAILED at rust/kernel/lib.rs:251
Expected 42 == 43 to be true, but is false
# my_first_test.speed: normal
not ok 1 my_first_test
- Support tests with checked 'Result' return types.
The return value of test functions that return a 'Result' will be
checked, thus one can now easily catch errors when e.g. using the
'?' operator in tests.
With this, a failing test like:
#[test]
fn my_test() -> Result {
f()?;
Ok(())
}
will report:
# my_test: ASSERTION FAILED at rust/kernel/lib.rs:321
Expected is_test_result_ok(my_test()) to be true, but is false
# my_test.speed: normal
not ok 1 my_test
- Add 'kunit_tests' to the prelude.
- Clarify the remaining language unstable features in use.
- Compile 'core' with edition 2024 for Rust >= 1.87.
- Workaround 'bindgen' issue with forward references to 'enum' types.
- objtool: relax slice condition to cover more 'noreturn' functions.
- Use absolute paths in macros referencing 'core' and 'kernel' crates.
- Skip '-mno-fdpic' flag for bindgen in GCC 32-bit arm builds.
- Clean some 'doc_markdown' lint hits -- we may enable it later on.
'kernel' crate:
- 'alloc' module:
- 'Box': support for type coercion, e.g. 'Box<T>' to 'Box<dyn U>' if
'T' implements 'U'.
- 'Vec': implement new methods (prerequisites for nova-core and
binder): 'truncate', 'resize', 'clear', 'pop',
'push_within_capacity' (with new error type 'PushError'),
'drain_all', 'retain', 'remove' (with new error type
'RemoveError'), insert_within_capacity' (with new error type
'InsertError').
In addition, simplify 'push' using 'spare_capacity_mut', split
'set_len' into 'inc_len' and 'dec_len', add type invariant
'len <= capacity' and simplify 'truncate' using 'dec_len'.
- 'time' module:
- Morph the Rust hrtimer subsystem into the Rust timekeeping
subsystem, covering delay, sleep, timekeeping, timers. This new
subsystem has all the relevant timekeeping C maintainers listed in
the entry.
- Replace 'Ktime' with 'Delta' and 'Instant' types to represent a
duration of time and a point in time.
- Temporarily add 'Ktime' to 'hrtimer' module to allow 'hrtimer' to
delay converting to 'Instant' and 'Delta'.
- 'xarray' module:
- Add a Rust abstraction for the 'xarray' data structure. This
abstraction allows Rust code to leverage the 'xarray' to store
types that implement 'ForeignOwnable'. This support is a dependency
for memory backing feature of the Rust null block driver, which is
waiting to be merged.
- Set up an entry in 'MAINTAINERS' for the XArray Rust support.
Patches will go to the new Rust XArray tree and then via the Rust
subsystem tree for now.
- Allow 'ForeignOwnable' to carry information about the pointed-to
type. This helps asserting alignment requirements for the pointer
passed to the foreign language.
- 'container_of!': retain pointer mut-ness and add a compile-time check
of the type of the first parameter ('$field_ptr').
- Support optional message in 'static_assert!'.
- Add C FFI types (e.g. 'c_int') to the prelude.
- 'str' module: simplify KUnit tests 'format!' macro, convert
'rusttest' tests into KUnit, take advantage of the '-> Result'
support in KUnit '#[test]'s.
- 'list' module: add examples for 'List', fix path of 'assert_pinned!'
(so far unused macro rule).
- 'workqueue' module: remove 'HasWork::OFFSET'.
- 'page' module: add 'inline' attribute.
'macros' crate:
- 'module' macro: place 'cleanup_module()' in '.exit.text' section.
'pin-init' crate:
- Add 'Wrapper<T>' trait for creating pin-initializers for wrapper
structs with a structurally pinned value such as 'UnsafeCell<T>' or
'MaybeUninit<T>'.
- Add 'MaybeZeroable' derive macro to try to derive 'Zeroable', but
not error if not all fields implement it. This is needed to derive
'Zeroable' for all bindgen-generated structs.
- Add 'unsafe fn cast_[pin_]init()' functions to unsafely change the
initialized type of an initializer. These are utilized by the
'Wrapper<T>' implementations.
- Add support for visibility in 'Zeroable' derive macro.
- Add support for 'union's in 'Zeroable' derive macro.
- Upstream dev news: streamline CI, fix some bugs. Add new workflows
to check if the user-space version and the one in the kernel tree
have diverged. Use the issues tab [1] to track them, which should
help folks report and diagnose issues w.r.t. 'pin-init' better.
[1] https://github.com/rust-for-linux/pin-init/issues
Documentation:
- Testing: add docs on the new KUnit '#[test]' tests.
- Coding guidelines: explain that '///' vs. '//' applies to private
items too. Add section on C FFI types.
- Quick Start guide: update Ubuntu instructions and split them into
"25.04" and "24.04 LTS and older".
And a few other cleanups and improvements.

- Clean some 'doc_markdown' lint hits -- we may enable it later on.
'kernel' crate:
- 'alloc' module:
- 'Box': support for type coercion, e.g. 'Box<T>' to 'Box<dyn U>'
if 'T' implements 'U'.
- 'Vec': implement new methods (prerequisites for nova-core and
binder): 'truncate', 'resize', 'clear', 'pop',
'push_within_capacity' (with new error type 'PushError'),
'drain_all', 'retain', 'remove' (with new error type
'RemoveError'), insert_within_capacity' (with new error type
'InsertError').
In addition, simplify 'push' using 'spare_capacity_mut', split
'set_len' into 'inc_len' and 'dec_len', add type invariant 'len
<= capacity' and simplify 'truncate' using 'dec_len'.
- 'time' module:
- Morph the Rust hrtimer subsystem into the Rust timekeeping
subsystem, covering delay, sleep, timekeeping, timers. This new
subsystem has all the relevant timekeeping C maintainers listed
in the entry.
- Replace 'Ktime' with 'Delta' and 'Instant' types to represent a
duration of time and a point in time.
- Temporarily add 'Ktime' to 'hrtimer' module to allow 'hrtimer'
to delay converting to 'Instant' and 'Delta'.
- 'xarray' module:
- Add a Rust abstraction for the 'xarray' data structure. This
abstraction allows Rust code to leverage the 'xarray' to store
types that implement 'ForeignOwnable'. This support is a
dependency for memory backing feature of the Rust null block
driver, which is waiting to be merged.
- Set up an entry in 'MAINTAINERS' for the XArray Rust support.
Patches will go to the new Rust XArray tree and then via the
Rust subsystem tree for now.
- Allow 'ForeignOwnable' to carry information about the pointed-to
type. This helps asserting alignment requirements for the
pointer passed to the foreign language.
- 'container_of!': retain pointer mut-ness and add a compile-time
check of the type of the first parameter ('$field_ptr').
- Support optional message in 'static_assert!'.
- Add C FFI types (e.g. 'c_int') to the prelude.
- 'str' module: simplify KUnit tests 'format!' macro, convert
'rusttest' tests into KUnit, take advantage of the '-> Result'
support in KUnit '#[test]'s.
- 'list' module: add examples for 'List', fix path of
'assert_pinned!' (so far unused macro rule).
- 'workqueue' module: remove 'HasWork::OFFSET'.
- 'page' module: add 'inline' attribute.
'macros' crate:
- 'module' macro: place 'cleanup_module()' in '.exit.text' section.
'pin-init' crate:
- Add 'Wrapper<T>' trait for creating pin-initializers for wrapper
structs with a structurally pinned value such as 'UnsafeCell<T>' or
'MaybeUninit<T>'.
- Add 'MaybeZeroable' derive macro to try to derive 'Zeroable', but
not error if not all fields implement it. This is needed to derive
'Zeroable' for all bindgen-generated structs.
- Add 'unsafe fn cast_[pin_]init()' functions to unsafely change the
initialized type of an initializer. These are utilized by the
'Wrapper<T>' implementations.
- Add support for visibility in 'Zeroable' derive macro.
- Add support for 'union's in 'Zeroable' derive macro.
- Upstream dev news: streamline CI, fix some bugs. Add new workflows
to check if the user-space version and the one in the kernel tree
have diverged. Use the issues tab [1] to track them, which should
help folks report and diagnose issues w.r.t. 'pin-init' better.
[1] https://github.com/rust-for-linux/pin-init/issues
Documentation:
- Testing: add docs on the new KUnit '#[test]' tests.
- Coding guidelines: explain that '///' vs. '//' applies to private
items too. Add section on C FFI types.
- Quick Start guide: update Ubuntu instructions and split them into
"25.04" and "24.04 LTS and older".
And a few other cleanups and improvements"

memcg: nmi safe memcg stats for specific archs
There are archs which have NMI but does not support this_cpu_* ops safely in the nmi context but they support safe atomic ops in nmi context. For such archs, let's add infra to use atomic ops for the memcg stats which can be updated in nmi. At the moment, the memcg stats which get updated in the objcg charging path are MEMCG_KMEM, NR_SLAB_RECLAIMABLE_B & NR_SLAB_UNRECLAIMABLE_B. Rather than adding support for all memcg stats to be nmi safe, let's just add infra to make these three stats nmi safe which this patch is doing.

memcg: disable kmem charging in nmi for unsupported arch
Patch series "memcg: nmi-safe kmem charging", v4. Users can attached their BPF programs at arbitrary execution points in the kernel and such BPF programs may run in nmi context. In addition, these programs can trigger memcg charged kernel allocations in the nmi context. However memcg charging infra for kernel memory is not equipped to handle nmi context for all architectures. This series removes the hurdles to enable kmem charging in the nmi context for most of the archs. For archs without CONFIG_HAVE_NMI, this series is a noop. For archs with NMI support and have CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_NMI_SAFE_THIS_CPU_OPS, the previous work to make memcg stats re-entrant is sufficient for allowing kmem charging in nmi context. For archs with NMI support but without CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_NMI_SAFE_THIS_CPU_OPS and with ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHG, this series added infra to support kmem charging in nmi context. Lastly those archs with NMI support but without CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_NMI_SAFE_THIS_CPU_OPS and ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHG, kmem charging in nmi context is not supported at all. Mostly used archs have support for CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_NMI_SAFE_THIS_CPU_OPS and this series should be almost a noop (other than making memcg_rstat_updated nmi safe) for such archs. This patch (of 5): The memcg accounting and stats uses this_cpu* and atomic* ops. There are archs which define CONFIG_HAVE_NMI but does not define CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_NMI_SAFE_THIS_CPU_OPS and ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHG, so memcg accounting for such archs in nmi context is not possible to support. Let's just disable memcg accounting in nmi context for such archs.

- The 11 patch series "Add folio_mk_pte()" from Matthew Wilcox
simplifies the act of creating a pte which addresses the first page in a folio and reduces the amount of plumbing which architecture must implement to provide this. - The 8 patch series "Misc folio patches for 6.16" from Matthew Wilcox is a shower of largely unrelated folio infrastructure changes which clean things up and better prepare us for future work. - The 3 patch series "memory,x86,acpi: hotplug memory alignment advisement" from Gregory Price adds early-init code to prevent x86 from leaving physical memory unused when physical address regions are not aligned to memory block size. - The 2 patch series "mm/compaction: allow more aggressive proactive compaction" from Michal Clapinski provides some tuning of the (sadly, hard-coded (more sadly, not auto-tuned)) thresholds for our invokation of proactive compaction. In a simple test case, the reduction of a guest VM's memory consumption was dramatic. - The 8 patch series "Minor cleanups and improvements to swap freeing code" from Kemeng Shi provides some code cleaups and a small efficiency improvement to this part of our swap handling code. - The 6 patch series "ptrace: introduce PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO API" from Dmitry Levin adds the ability for a ptracer to modify syscalls arguments. At this time we can alter only "system call information that are used by strace system call tampering, namely, syscall number, syscall arguments, and syscall return value. This series should have been incorporated into mm.git's "non-MM" branch, but I goofed. - The 3 patch series "fs/proc: extend the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl to report guard regions" from Andrei Vagin extends the info returned by the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl against /proc/pid/pagemap. This permits CRIU to more efficiently get at the info about guard regions. - The 2 patch series "Fix parameter passed to page_mapcount_is_type()" from Gavin Shan implements that fix. No runtime effect is expected because validate_page_before_insert() happens to fix up this error. - The 3 patch series "kernel/events/uprobes: uprobe_write_opcode() rewrite" from David Hildenbrand basically brings uprobe text poking into the current decade. Remove a bunch of hand-rolled implementation in favor of using more current facilities. - The 3 patch series "mm/ptdump: Drop assumption that pxd_val() is u64" from Anshuman Khandual provides enhancements and generalizations to the pte dumping code. This might be needed when 128-bit Page Table Descriptors are enabled for ARM. - The 12 patch series "Always call constructor for kernel page tables" from Kevin Brodsky "ensures that the ctor/dtor is always called for kernel pgtables, as it already is for user pgtables". This permits the addition of more functionality such as "insert hooks to protect page tables". This change does result in various architectures performing unnecesary work, but this is fixed up where it is anticipated to occur. - The 9 patch series "Rust support for mm_struct, vm_area_struct, and mmap" from Alice Ryhl adds plumbing to permit Rust access to core MM structures. - The 3 patch series "fix incorrectly disallowed anonymous VMA merges" from Lorenzo Stoakes takes advantage of some VMA merging opportunities which we've been missing for 15 years. - The 4 patch series "mm/madvise: batch tlb flushes for MADV_DONTNEED and MADV_FREE" from SeongJae Park optimizes process_madvise()'s TLB flushing. Instead of flushing each address range in the provided iovec, we batch the flushing across all the iovec entries. The syscall's cost was approximately halved with a microbenchmark which was designed to load this particular operation. - The 6 patch series "Track node vacancy to reduce worst case allocation counts" from Sidhartha Kumar makes the maple tree smarter about its node preallocation. stress-ng mmap performance increased by single-digit percentages and the amount of unnecessarily preallocated memory was dramaticelly reduced. - The 3 patch series "mm/gup: Minor fix, cleanup and improvements" from Baoquan He removes a few unnecessary things which Baoquan noted when reading the code. - The 3 patch series ""Enhance sysfs handling for memory hotplug in weighted interleave" from Rakie Kim "enhances the weighted interleave policy in the memory management subsystem by improving sysfs handling, fixing memory leaks, and introducing dynamic sysfs updates for memory hotplug support". Fixes things on error paths which we are unlikely to hit. - The 7 patch series "mm/damon: auto-tune DAMOS for NUMA setups including tiered memory" from SeongJae Park introduces new DAMOS quota goal metrics which eliminate the manual tuning which is required when utilizing DAMON for memory tiering. - The 5 patch series "mm/vmalloc.c: code cleanup and improvements" from Baoquan He provides cleanups and small efficiency improvements which Baoquan found via code inspection. - The 2 patch series "vmscan: enforce mems_effective during demotion" from Gregory Price "changes reclaim to respect cpuset.mems_effective during demotion when possible". because "presently, reclaim explicitly ignores cpuset.mems_effective when demoting, which may cause the cpuset settings to violated." "This is useful for isolating workloads on a multi-tenant system from certain classes of memory more consistently." - The 2 patch series ""Clean up split_huge_pmd_locked() and remove unnecessary folio pointers" from Gavin Guo provides minor cleanups and efficiency gains in in the huge page splitting and migrating code. - The 3 patch series "Use kmem_cache for memcg alloc" from Huan Yang creates a slab cache for `struct mem_cgroup', yielding improved memory utilization. - The 4 patch series "add max arg to swappiness in memory.reclaim and lru_gen" from Zhongkun He adds a new "max" argument to the "swappiness=" argument for memory.reclaim MGLRU's lru_gen. This directs proactive reclaim to reclaim from only anon folios rather than file-backed folios. - The 17 patch series "kexec: introduce Kexec HandOver (KHO)" from Mike Rapoport is the first step on the path to permitting the kernel to maintain existing VMs while replacing the host kernel via file-based kexec. At this time only memblock's reserve_mem is preserved. - The 7 patch series "mm: Introduce for_each_valid_pfn()" from David Woodhouse provides and uses a smarter way of looping over a pfn range. By skipping ranges of invalid pfns. - The 2 patch series "sched/numa: Skip VMA scanning on memory pinned to one NUMA node via cpuset.mems" from Libo Chen removes a lot of pointless VMA scanning when a task is pinned a single NUMA mode. Dramatic performance benefits were seen in some real world cases. - The 2 patch series "JFS: Implement migrate_folio for jfs_metapage_aops" from Shivank Garg addresses a warning which occurs during memory compaction when using JFS. - The 4 patch series "move all VMA allocation, freeing and duplication logic to mm" from Lorenzo Stoakes moves some VMA code from kernel/fork.c into the more appropriate mm/vma.c. - The 6 patch series "mm, swap: clean up swap cache mapping helper" from Kairui Song provides code consolidation and cleanups related to the folio_index() function. - The 2 patch series "mm/gup: Cleanup memfd_pin_folios()" from Vishal Moola does that. - The 8 patch series "memcg: Fix test_memcg_min/low test failures" from Waiman Long addresses some bogus failures which are being reported by the test_memcontrol selftest. - The 3 patch series "eliminate mmap() retry merge, add .mmap_prepare hook" from Lorenzo Stoakes commences the deprecation of file_operations.mmap() in favor of the new file_operations.mmap_prepare(). The latter is more restrictive and prevents drivers from messing with things in ways which, amongst other problems, may defeat VMA merging. - The 4 patch series "memcg: decouple memcg and objcg stocks"" from Shakeel Butt decouples the per-cpu memcg charge cache from the objcg's one. This is a step along the way to making memcg and objcg charging NMI-safe, which is a BPF requirement. - The 6 patch series "mm/damon: minor fixups and improvements for code, tests, and documents" from SeongJae Park is "yet another batch of miscellaneous DAMON changes. Fix and improve minor problems in code, tests and documents." - The 7 patch series "memcg: make memcg stats irq safe" from Shakeel Butt converts memcg stats to be irq safe. Another step along the way to making memcg charging and stats updates NMI-safe, a BPF requirement. - The 4 patch series "Let unmap_hugepage_range() and several related functions take folio instead of page" from Fan Ni provides folio conversions in the hugetlb code. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iHUEABYKAB0WIQTTMBEPP41GrTpTJgfdBJ7gKXxAjgUCaDt5qgAKCRDdBJ7gKXxA ju6XAP9nTiSfRz8Cz1n5LJZpFKEGzLpSihCYyR6P3o1L9oe3mwEAlZ5+XAwk2I5x Qqb/UGMEpilyre1PayQqOnct3aSL9Ao= =tYYm -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'mm-stable-2025-05-31-14-50' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton: - "Add folio_mk_pte()" from Matthew Wilcox simplifies the act of creating a pte which addresses the first page in a folio and reduces the amount of plumbing which architecture must implement to provide this. - "Misc folio patches for 6.16" from Matthew Wilcox is a shower of largely unrelated folio infrastructure changes which clean things up and better prepare us for future work. - "memory,x86,acpi: hotplug memory alignment advisement" from Gregory Price adds early-init code to prevent x86 from leaving physical memory unused when physical address regions are not aligned to memory block size. - "mm/compaction: allow more aggressive proactive compaction" from Michal Clapinski provides some tuning of the (sadly, hard-coded (more sadly, not auto-tuned)) thresholds for our invokation of proactive compaction.

This change does result in various architectures performing unnecesary work, but this is fixed up where it is anticipated to occur. - "Rust support for mm_struct, vm_area_struct, and mmap" from Alice Ryhl adds plumbing to permit Rust access to core MM structures. - "fix incorrectly disallowed anonymous VMA merges" from Lorenzo Stoakes takes advantage of some VMA merging opportunities which we've been missing for 15 years. - "mm/madvise: batch tlb flushes for MADV_DONTNEED and MADV_FREE" from SeongJae Park optimizes process_madvise()'s TLB flushing. Instead of flushing each address range in the provided iovec, we batch the flushing across all the iovec entries. The syscall's cost was approximately halved with a microbenchmark which was designed to load this particular operation. - "Track node vacancy to reduce worst case allocation counts" from Sidhartha Kumar makes the maple tree smarter about its node preallocation. stress-ng mmap performance increased by single-digit percentages and the amount of unnecessarily preallocated memory was dramaticelly reduced. - "mm/gup: Minor fix, cleanup and improvements" from Baoquan He removes a few unnecessary things which Baoquan noted when reading the code. - ""Enhance sysfs handling for memory hotplug in weighted interleave" from Rakie Kim "enhances the weighted interleave policy in the memory management subsystem by improving sysfs handling, fixing memory leaks, and introducing dynamic sysfs updates for memory hotplug support". Fixes things on error paths which we are unlikely to hit. - "mm/damon: auto-tune DAMOS for NUMA setups including tiered memory" from SeongJae Park introduces new DAMOS quota goal metrics which eliminate the manual tuning which is required when utilizing DAMON for memory tiering. - "mm/vmalloc.c: code cleanup and improvements" from Baoquan He provides cleanups and small efficiency improvements which Baoquan found via code inspection. - "vmscan: enforce mems_effective during demotion" from Gregory Price changes reclaim to respect cpuset.mems_effective during demotion when possible. because presently, reclaim explicitly ignores cpuset.mems_effective when demoting, which may cause the cpuset settings to violated. This is useful for isolating workloads on a multi-tenant system from certain classes of memory more consistently. - "Clean up split_huge_pmd_locked() and remove unnecessary folio pointers" from Gavin Guo provides minor cleanups and efficiency gains in in the huge page splitting and migrating code. - "Use kmem_cache for memcg alloc" from Huan Yang creates a slab cache for `struct mem_cgroup', yielding improved memory utilization. - "add max arg to swappiness in memory.reclaim and lru_gen" from Zhongkun He adds a new "max" argument to the "swappiness=" argument for memory.reclaim MGLRU's lru_gen. This directs proactive reclaim to reclaim from only anon folios rather than file-backed folios. - "kexec: introduce Kexec HandOver (KHO)" from Mike Rapoport is the first step on the path to permitting the kernel to maintain existing VMs while replacing the host kernel via file-based kexec. At this time only memblock's reserve_mem is preserved. - "mm: Introduce for_each_valid_pfn()" from David Woodhouse provides and uses a smarter way of looping over a pfn range. By skipping ranges of invalid pfns. - "sched/numa: Skip VMA scanning on memory pinned to one NUMA node via cpuset.mems" from Libo Chen removes a lot of pointless VMA scanning when a task is pinned a single NUMA mode. Dramatic performance benefits were seen in some real world cases. - "JFS: Implement migrate_folio for jfs_metapage_aops" from Shivank Garg addresses a warning which occurs during memory compaction when using JFS. - "move all VMA allocation, freeing and duplication logic to mm" from Lorenzo Stoakes moves some VMA code from kernel/fork.c into the more appropriate mm/vma.c. - "mm, swap: clean up swap cache mapping helper" from Kairui Song provides code consolidation and cleanups related to the folio_index() function. - "mm/gup: Cleanup memfd_pin_folios()" from Vishal Moola does that. - "memcg: Fix test_memcg_min/low test failures" from Waiman Long addresses some bogus failures which are being reported by the test_memcontrol selftest. - "eliminate mmap() retry merge, add .mmap_prepare hook" from Lorenzo Stoakes commences the deprecation of file_operations.mmap() in favor of the new file_operations.mmap_prepare(). The latter is more restrictive and prevents drivers from messing with things in ways which, amongst other problems, may defeat VMA merging. - "memcg: decouple memcg and objcg stocks"" from Shakeel Butt decouples the per-cpu memcg charge cache from the objcg's one. This is a step along the way to making memcg and objcg charging NMI-safe, which is a BPF requirement. - "mm/damon: minor fixups and improvements for code, tests, and documents" from SeongJae Park is yet another batch of miscellaneous DAMON changes. Fix and improve minor problems in code, tests and documents. - "memcg: make memcg stats irq safe" from Shakeel Butt converts memcg stats to be irq safe. Another step along the way to making memcg charging and stats updates NMI-safe, a BPF requirement. - "Let unmap_hugepage_range() and several related functions take folio instead of page" from Fan Ni provides folio conversions in the hugetlb code. * tag 'mm-stable-2025-05-31-14-50' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm: (285 commits) mm: pcp: increase pcp->free_count threshold to trigger free_high mm/hugetlb: convert use of struct page to folio in __unmap_hugepage_range() mm/hugetlb: refactor __unmap_hugepage_range() to take folio instead of page mm/hugetlb: refactor unmap_hugepage_range() to take folio instead of page mm/hugetlb: pass folio instead of page to unmap_ref_private() memcg: objcg stock trylock without irq disabling memcg: no stock lock for cpu hot-unplug memcg: make __mod_memcg_lruvec_state re-entrant safe against irqs memcg: make count_memcg_events re-entrant safe against irqs memcg: make mod_memcg_state re-entrant safe against irqs memcg: move preempt disable to callers of memcg_rstat_updated memcg: memcg_rstat_updated re-entrant safe against irqs mm: khugepaged: decouple SHMEM and file folios' collapse selftests/eventfd: correct test name and improve messages alloc_tag: check mem_profiling_support in alloc_tag_init Docs/damon: update titles and brief introductions to explain DAMOS selftests/damon/_damon_sysfs: read tried regions directories in order mm/damon/tests/core-kunit: add a test for damos_set_filters_default_reject() mm/damon/paddr: remove unused variable, folio_list, in damon_pa_stat() mm/damon/sysfs-schemes: fix wrong comment on damons_sysfs_quota_goal_metric_strs ... |

rust: kunit: support KUnit-mapped assert! macros in #[test]s
The KUnit `#[test]` support that landed recently is very basic and does
not map the `assert*!` macros into KUnit like the doctests do, so they
panic at the moment.
Thus implement the custom mapping in a similar way to doctests, reusing
the infrastructure there.
In Rust 1.88.0, the `file()` method in `Span` may be stable [1]. However,
it was changed recently (from `SourceFile`), so we need to do something
different in previous versions. Thus create a helper for it and use it
to get the path.
With this, a failing test suite like:
#[kunit_tests(my_test_suite)]
mod tests {
use super::*;
#[test]
fn my_first_test() {
assert_eq!(42, 43);
}
#[test]
fn my_second_test() {
assert!(42 >= 43);
}
}
will properly map back to KUnit, printing something like:
[ 1.924325] KTAP version 1
[ 1.924421] # Subtest: my_test_suite
[ 1.924506] # speed: normal
[ 1.924525] 1..2
[ 1.926385] # my_first_test: ASSERTION FAILED at rust/kernel/lib.rs:251
[ 1.926385] Expected 42 == 43 to be true, but is false
[ 1.928026] # my_first_test.speed: normal
[ 1.928075] not ok 1 my_first_test
[ 1.928723] # my_second_test: ASSERTION FAILED at rust/kernel/lib.rs:256
[ 1.928723] Expected 42 >= 43 to be true, but is false
[ 1.929834] # my_second_test.speed: normal
[ 1.929868] not ok 2 my_second_test
[ 1.930032] # my_test_suite: pass:0 fail:2 skip:0 total:2
[ 1.930153] # Totals: pass:0 fail:2 skip:0 total

[ Required `KUNIT=y` like for doctests. Used the `cfg_attr` from the
TODO comment and clarified its comment now that the stabilization is
in beta and thus quite likely stable in Rust 1.88.0. Simplified the
`new_body` code by introducing a new variable. Added
`#[allow(clippy::incompatible_msrv)]`. - Miguel ]

Another set of timer API cleanups:
- Convert init_timer*(), try_to_del_timer_sync() and
destroy_timer_on_stack() over to the canonical timer_*() namespace
convention.
There are is another large converstion pending, which has not been included
because it would have caused a gazillion of merge conflicts in next. The
conversion scripts will be run towards the end of the merge window and a
pull request sent once all conflict dependencies have been merged.

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the usual selections of misc updates for this cycle.
Features:
- Use folios for symlinks in the page cache
FUSE already uses folios for its symlinks. Mirror that conversion
in the generic code and the NFS code. That lets us get rid of a few
folio->page->folio conversions in this path, and some of the few
remaining users of read_cache_page() / read_mapping_page()
- Try and make a few filesystem operations killable on the VFS
inode->i_mutex level
- Add sysctl vfs_cache_pressure_denom for bulk file operations
Some workloads need to preserve more dentries than we currently
allow through out sysctl interface
A HDFS servers with 12 HDDs per server, on a HDFS datanode startup
involves scanning all files and caching their metadata (including
dentries and inodes) in memory. Each HDD contains approximately 2
million files, resulting in a total of ~20 million cached dentries
after initialization
To minimize dentry reclamation, they set vfs_cache_pressure to 1.
Despite this configuration, memory pressure conditions can still
trigger reclamation of up to 50% of cached dentries, reducing the
cache from 20 million to approximately 10 million entries. During
the subsequent cache rebuild period, any HDFS datanode restart
operation incurs substantial latency penalties until full cache
recovery completes
To maintain service stability, more dentries need to be preserved
during memory reclamation. The current minimum reclaim ratio (1/100
of total dentries) remains too aggressive for such workload. This
patch introduces vfs_cache_pressure_denom for more granular cache
pressure control
The configuration [vfs_cache_pressure=1,
vfs_cache_pressure_denom=10000] effectively maintains the full 20
million dentry cache under memory pressure, preventing datanode
restart performance degradation
- Avoid some jumps in inode_permission() using likely()/unlikely()
- Avid a memory access which is most likely a cache miss when
descending into devcgroup_inode_permission()
- Add fastpath predicts for stat() and fdput()
- Anonymous inodes currently don't come with a proper mode causing
issues in the kernel when we want to add useful VFS debug assert.
Fix that by giving them a proper mode and masking it off when we
report it to userspace which relies on them not having any mode
- Anonymous inodes currently allow to change inode attributes because
the VFS falls back to simple_setattr() if i_op->setattr isn't
implemented. This means the ownership and mode for every single
user of anon_inode_inode can be changed. Block that as it's either
useless or actively harmful. If specific ownership is needed the
respective subsystem should allocate anonymous inodes from their
own private superblock
- Raise SB_I_NODEV and SB_I_NOEXEC on the anonymous inode superblock
- Add proper tests for anonymous inode behavior
- Make it easy to detect proper anonymous inodes and to ensure that
we can detect them in codepaths such as readahead()
Cleanups:
- Port pidfs to the new anon_inode_{g,s}etattr() helpers
- Try to remove the uselib() system call
- Add unlikely branch hint return path for poll
- Add unlikely branch hint on return path for core_sys_select
- Don't allow signals to interrupt getdents copying for fuse
- Provide a size hint to dir_context for during readdir()
- Use writeback_iter directly in mpage_writepages
- Update compression and mtime descriptions in initramfs
documentation
- Update main netfs API document
- Remove useless plus one in super_cache_scan()
- Remove unnecessary NULL-check guards during setns()
- Add separate separate {get,put}_cgroup_ns no-op cases
Fixes:
- Fix typo in root= kernel parameter description
- Use KERN_INFO for infof()|info_plog()|infofc()
- Correct comments of fs_validate_description()
- Mark an unlikely if condition with unlikely() in
vfs_parse_monolithic_sep()
- Delete macro fsparam_u32hex()
- Remove unused and problematic validate_constant_table()
- Fix potential unsigned integer underflow in fs_name()
- Make file-nr output the total allocated file handles"

mm/memcg: move mem_cgroup_init() ahead of cgroup_init()
Patch series "Use kmem_cache for memcg alloc", v3.
(willy tldr: "you've gone from allocating 8 objects per 32KiB to
allocating 13 objects per 32KiB, a 62% improvement in memory consumption"
[1])
The mem_cgroup_alloc function creates mem_cgroup struct and it's
associated structures including mem_cgroup_per_node. Through detailed
analysis on our test machine (Arm64, 16GB RAM, 6.6 kernel, 1 NUMA node,
memcgv2 with nokmem,nosocket,cgroup_disable=pressure), we can observe the
memory allocation for these structures using the following shell commands:
# Enable tracing
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/enable
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/tracing/tracing_on
cat /sys/kernel/tracing/trace_pipe | grep kmalloc | grep mem_cgroup
# Trigger allocation if cgroup subtree do not enable memcg
echo +memory > /sys/fs/cgroup/cgroup.subtree_control
Ftrace Output:
# mem_cgroup struct allocation
sh-6312 [000] ..... 58015.698365: kmalloc:
call_site=mem_cgroup_css_alloc+0xd8/0x5b4
ptr=000000003e4c3799 bytes_req=2312 bytes_alloc=4096
gfp_flags=GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_ZERO node=-1 accounted=false
# mem_cgroup_per_node allocation
sh-6312 [000] ..... 58015.698389: kmalloc:
call_site=mem_cgroup_css_alloc+0x1d8/0x5b4
ptr=00000000d798700c bytes_req=2896 bytes_alloc=4096
gfp_flags=GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_ZERO node=0 accounted=false
Key Observations:
1. Both structures use kmalloc with requested sizes between 2KB-4KB
2. Allocation alignment forces 4KB slab usage due to pre-defined sizes
(64B, 128B,..., 2KB, 4KB, 8KB)
3. Memory waste per memcg instance:
Base struct: 4096 - 2312 = 1784 bytes
Per-node struct: 4096 - 2896 = 1200 bytes
Total waste: 2984 bytes (1-node system)
NUMA scaling: (1200 + 8) * nr_node_ids bytes
So, it's a little waste.
This patchset introduces dedicated kmem_cache:
Patch2 - mem_cgroup kmem_cache - memcg_cachep
Patch3 - mem_cgroup_per_node kmem_cache - memcg_pn_cachep
The benefits of this change can be observed with the following tracing
commands:
# Enable tracing
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/tracing/events/kmem/kmem_cache_alloc/enable
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/tracing/tracing_on
cat /sys/kernel/tracing/trace_pipe | grep kmem_cache_alloc | grep mem_cgroup
# In another terminal:
echo +memory > /sys/fs/cgroup/cgroup.subtree_control
The output might now look like this:
# mem_cgroup struct allocation
sh-9827 [000] ..... 289.513598: kmem_cache_alloc:
call_site=mem_cgroup_css_alloc+0xbc/0x5d4 ptr=00000000695c1806
bytes_req=2312 bytes_alloc=2368 gfp_flags=GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_ZERO node=-1
accounted=false
# mem_cgroup_per_node allocation
sh-9827 [000] ..... 289.513602: kmem_cache_alloc:
call_site=mem_cgroup_css_alloc+0x1b8/0x5d4 ptr=000000002989e63a
bytes_req=2896 bytes_alloc=2944 gfp_flags=GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_ZERO node=0
accounted=false
This indicates that the `mem_cgroup` struct now requests 2312 bytes and is
allocated 2368 bytes, while `mem_cgroup_per_node` requests 2896 bytes and
is allocated 2944 bytes. The slight increase in allocated size is due to
`SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN` in the `kmem_cache`.
Without `SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN`, the allocation might appear as:
# mem_cgroup struct allocation
sh-9269 [003] ..... 80.396366: kmem_cache_alloc:
call_site=mem_cgroup_css_alloc+0xbc/0x5d4 ptr=000000005b12b475
bytes_req=2312 bytes_alloc=2312 gfp_flags=GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_ZERO node=-1
accounted=false
# mem_cgroup_per_node allocation
sh-9269 [003] ..... 80.396411: kmem_cache_alloc:
call_site=mem_cgroup_css_alloc+0x1b8/0x5d4 ptr=00000000f347adc6
bytes_req=2896 bytes_alloc=2896 gfp_flags=GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_ZERO node=0
accounted=false
While the `bytes_alloc` now matches the `bytes_req`, this patchset
defaults to using `SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN` as it is generally considered more
beneficial for performance. Please let me know if there are any issues or
if I've misunderstood anything.
This patchset also move mem_cgroup_init ahead of cgroup_init() due to
cgroup_init() will allocate root_mem_cgroup, but each initcall invoke
after cgroup_init, so if each kmem_cache do not prepare, we need testing
NULL before use it.
This patch (of 3):
When cgroup_init() creates root_mem_cgroup through css_alloc callback,
some critical resources might not be fully initialized, forcing later
operations to perform conditional checks for resource availability.
This patch move mem_cgroup_init() to address the init order, it invoke
before cgroup_init, so, compare to subsys_initcall, it can use to prepare
some key resources before root_mem_cgroup alloc.

init/main.c: log initcall level when initcall_debug is used
When initcall_debug is specified on the command line, the start and return point for each initcall is printed. However, no information on the initcall level is reported. Add to the initcall_debug infrastructure an additional print that informs when a new initcall level is entered. This is particularly useful when debugging dependency chains and/or working on boot time reduction.

hardening: simplify CONFIG_CC_HAS_COUNTED_BY
Simplifies CONFIG_CC_HAS_COUNTED_BY by removing the build test and relying solely on gcc/clang version numbering (GCC_VERSION >= 150100 and CLANG_VERSION >= 190103). The build test was used to allow unreleased gcc 15.0 builds to use the __counted_by attribute. Now that gcc 15.1.0 has been released, this is not needed anymore. Note: This will disable __counted_by on unreleased gcc 15.0 builds. clang version support for __counted_by remains unchanged.

rust: clean Rust 1.88.0's unnecessary_transmutes lint
Starting with Rust 1.88.0 (expected 2025-06-26) [1][2], `rustc` may
introduce a new lint that catches unnecessary transmutes, e.g.:
error: unnecessary transmute
--> rust/uapi/uapi_generated.rs:23242:18
|
23242 | unsafe { ::core::mem::transmute(self._bitfield_1.get(0usize, 1u8) as u8) }
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ help: replace this with: `(self._bitfield_1.get(0usize, 1u8) as u8 == 1)`
|
= note: `-D unnecessary-transmutes` implied by `-D warnings`
= help: to override `-D warnings` add `#[allow(unnecessary_transmutes)]`
There are a lot of them (at least 300), but luckily they are all in
`bindgen`-generated code.
Thus clean all up by allowing it there.
Since unknown lints trigger a lint itself in older compilers, do it
conditionally so that we can keep the `unknown_lints` lint enabled.
Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # Needed in 6.12.y and later (Rust is pinned in older LTSs).

futex: Implement FUTEX2_MPOL
Extend the futex2 interface to be aware of mempolicy. When FUTEX2_MPOL is specified and there is a MPOL_PREFERRED or home_node specified covering the futex address, use that hash-map. Notably, in this case the futex will go to the global node hashtable, even if it is a PRIVATE futex. When FUTEX2_NUMA|FUTEX2_MPOL is specified and the user specified node value is FUTEX_NO_NODE, the MPOL lookup (as described above) will be tried first before reverting to setting node to the local node.

futex: Add basic infrastructure for local task local hash
The futex hash is system wide and shared by all tasks. Each slot
is hashed based on futex address and the VMA of the thread. Due to
randomized VMAs (and memory allocations) the same logical lock (pointer)
can end up in a different hash bucket on each invocation of the
application. This in turn means that different applications may share a
hash bucket on the first invocation but not on the second and it is not
always clear which applications will be involved. This can result in
high latency's to acquire the futex_hash_bucket::lock especially if the
lock owner is limited to a CPU and can not be effectively PI boosted.
Introduce basic infrastructure for process local hash which is shared by
all threads of process. This hash will only be used for a
PROCESS_PRIVATE FUTEX operation.
The hashmap can be allocated via:
prctl(PR_FUTEX_HASH, PR_FUTEX_HASH_SET_SLOTS, num);
A `num' of 0 means that the global hash is used instead of a private
hash.
Other values for `num' specify the number of slots for the hash and the
number must be power of two, starting with two.
The prctl() returns zero on success. This function can only be used
before a thread is created.
The current status for the private hash can be queried via:
num = prctl(PR_FUTEX_HASH, PR_FUTEX_HASH_GET_SLOTS);
which return the current number of slots. The value 0 means that the
global hash is used. Values greater than 0 indicate the number of slots
that are used. A negative number indicates an error.
For optimisation, for the private hash jhash2() uses only two arguments
the address and the offset. This omits the VMA which is always the same.
[peterz: Use 0 for global hash. A bit shuffling and renaming. ]

sched/isolation: Make CONFIG_CPU_ISOLATION depend on CONFIG_SMP
kernel/sched/isolation.c obviously makes no sense without CONFIG_SMP, but the Kconfig entry we have right now: config CPU_ISOLATION bool "CPU isolation" depends on SMP || COMPILE_TEST allows the creation of pointless .config's which cause build failures.

mseal sysmap: kernel config and header change
Patch series "mseal system mappings", v9. As discussed during mseal() upstream process [1], mseal() protects the VMAs of a given virtual memory range against modifications, such as the read/write (RW) and no-execute (NX) bits. For complete descriptions of memory sealing, please see mseal.rst [2]. The mseal() is useful to mitigate memory corruption issues where a corrupted pointer is passed to a memory management system. For example, such an attacker primitive can break control-flow integrity guarantees since read-only memory that is supposed to be trusted can become writable or .text pages can get remapped. The system mappings are readonly only, memory sealing can protect them from ever changing to writable or unmmap/remapped as different attributes. System mappings such as vdso, vvar, vvar_vclock, vectors (arm compat-mode), sigpage (arm compat-mode), are created by the kernel during program initialization, and could be sealed after creation. Unlike the aforementioned mappings, the uprobe mapping is not established during program startup. However, its lifetime is the same as the process's lifetime [3]. It could be sealed from creation. The vsyscall on x86-64 uses a special address (0xffffffffff600000), which is outside the mm managed range. This means mprotect, munmap, and mremap won't work on the vsyscall. Since sealing doesn't enhance the vsyscall's security, it is skipped in this patch. If we ever seal the vsyscall, it is probably only for decorative purpose, i.e. showing the 'sl' flag in the /proc/pid/smaps. For this patch, it is ignored. It is important to note that the CHECKPOINT_RESTORE feature (CRIU) may alter the system mappings during restore operations. UML(User Mode Linux) and gVisor, rr are also known to change the vdso/vvar mappings. Consequently, this feature cannot be universally enabled across all systems. As such, CONFIG_MSEAL_SYSTEM_MAPPINGS is disabled by default. To support mseal of system mappings, architectures must define CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_MSEAL_SYSTEM_MAPPINGS and update their special mappings calls to pass mseal flag. Additionally, architectures must confirm they do not unmap/remap system mappings during the process lifetime. The existence of this flag for an architecture implies that it does not require the remapping of thest system mappings during process lifetime, so sealing these mappings is safe from a kernel perspective. This version covers x86-64 and arm64 archiecture as minimum viable feature. While no specific CPU hardware features are required for enable this feature on an archiecture, memory sealing requires a 64-bit kernel. Other architectures can choose whether or not to adopt this feature. Currently, I'm not aware of any instances in the kernel code that actively munmap/mremap a system mapping without a request from userspace. The PPC does call munmap when _install_special_mapping fails for vdso; however, it's uncertain if this will ever fail for PPC - this needs to be investigated by PPC in the future [4]. The UML kernel can add this support when KUnit tests require it [5]. In this version, we've improved the handling of system mapping sealing from previous versions, instead of modifying the _install_special_mapping function itself, which would affect all architectures, we now call _install_special_mapping with a sealing flag only within the specific architecture that requires it. This targeted approach offers two key advantages: 1) It limits the code change's impact to the necessary architectures, and 2) It aligns with the software architecture by keeping the core memory management within the mm layer, while delegating the decision of sealing system mappings to the individual architecture, which is particularly relevant since 32-bit architectures never require sealing. Prior to this patch series, we explored sealing special mappings from userspace using glibc's dynamic linker. This approach revealed several issues: - The PT_LOAD header may report an incorrect length for vdso, (smaller than its actual size). The dynamic linker, which relies on PT_LOAD information to determine mapping size, would then split and partially seal the vdso mapping. Since each architecture has its own vdso/vvar code, fixing this in the kernel would require going through each archiecture. Our initial goal was to enable sealing readonly mappings, e.g. .text, across all architectures, sealing vdso from kernel since creation appears to be simpler than sealing vdso at glibc. - The [vvar] mapping header only contains address information, not length information. Similar issues might exist for other special mappings. - Mappings like uprobe are not covered by the dynamic linker, and there is no effective solution for them. This feature's security enhancements will benefit ChromeOS, Android, and other high security systems. Testing: This feature was tested on ChromeOS and Android for both x86-64 and ARM64. - Enable sealing and verify vdso/vvar, sigpage, vector are sealed properly, i.e. "sl" shown in the smaps for those mappings, and mremap is blocked. - Passing various automation tests (e.g. pre-checkin) on ChromeOS and Android to ensure the sealing doesn't affect the functionality of Chromebook and Android phone. I also tested the feature on Ubuntu on x86-64: - With config disabled, vdso/vvar is not sealed, - with config enabled, vdso/vvar is sealed, and booting up Ubuntu is OK, normal operations such as browsing the web, open/edit doc are OK.

ARM: 9443/1: Require linker to support KEEP within OVERLAY for DCE
ld.lld prior to 21.0.0 does not support using the KEEP keyword within an
overlay description, which may be needed to avoid discarding necessary
sections within an overlay with '--gc-sections', which can be enabled
for the kernel via CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION.
Disallow CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION without support for KEEP
within OVERLAY and introduce a macro, OVERLAY_KEEP, that can be used to
conditionally add KEEP when it is properly supported to avoid breaking
old versions of ld.lld.

RCU pull request for v6.15
This pull request contains the following branches:
docs.2025.02.04a:
- Add broken-timing possibility to stallwarn.rst.
- Improve discussion of this_cpu_ptr(), add raw_cpu_ptr().
- Document self-propagating callbacks.
- Point call_srcu() to call_rcu() for detailed memory ordering.
- Add CONFIG_RCU_LAZY delays to call_rcu() kernel-doc header.
- Clarify RCU_LAZY and RCU_LAZY_DEFAULT_OFF help text.
- Remove references to old grace-period-wait primitives.
srcu.2025.02.05a:
- Introduce srcu_read_{un,}lock_fast(), which is similar to
srcu_read_{un,}lock_lite(): avoid smp_mb()s in lock and unlock at the
cost of calling synchronize_rcu() in synchronize_srcu(). Moreover, by

compiler_types: Introduce __nonstring_array
GCC has expanded support of the "nonstring" attribute so that it can be
applied to arrays of character arrays[1], which is needed to identify
correct static initialization of those kinds of objects. Since this was
not supported prior to GCC 15, we need to distinguish the usage of Linux's
existing __nonstring macro for the attribute for non-multi-dimensional
char arrays. Until GCC 15 is the minimum version, use __nonstring_array to
mark arrays of non-string character arrays. (Regular non-string character
arrays can continue to use __nonstring.) Once GCC 15 is the minimum
compiler version we can replace all uses of __nonstring_array with just
__nonstring and remove this macro.
This allows for changes like this:
-static const char table_sigs[][ACPI_NAMESEG_SIZE] __initconst = {
+static const char table_sigs[][ACPI_NAMESEG_SIZE] __nonstring_array __initconst = {
ACPI_SIG_BERT, ACPI_SIG_BGRT, ACPI_SIG_CPEP, ACPI_SIG_ECDT,
Which will silence the coming -Wunterminated-string-initialization
warnings in GCC 15:

rust: Disallow BTF generation with Rust + LTO
The kernel cannot currently self-parse BTF containing Rust debug
information. pahole uses the language of the CU to determine whether to
filter out debug information when generating the BTF. When LTO is
enabled, Rust code can cross CU boundaries, resulting in Rust debug
information in CUs labeled as C. This results in a system which cannot
parse its own BTF.

initramfs: fix hardlink hash leak without TRAILER
Covered in Documentation/driver-api/early-userspace/buffer-format.rst ,
initramfs archives can carry an optional "TRAILER!!!" entry which serves
as a boundary for collecting and associating hardlinks with matching
inode and major / minor device numbers.
Although optional, if hardlinks are found in an archive without a
subsequent "TRAILER!!!" entry then the hardlink state hash table is
leaked, e.g. unfixed kernel, with initramfs_test.c hunk applied only:
unreferenced object 0xffff9405408cc000 (size 8192):
comm "kunit_try_catch", pid 53, jiffies 4294892519
hex dump (first 32 bytes):
01 00 00 00 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ff 81 00 00 ................
00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 69 6e 69 74 72 61 6d 66 ........initramf

[<00000000f848ad1a>] ret_from_fork_asm+0x1a/0x30
Fix this by calling free_hash() after initramfs buffer processing in
unpack_to_rootfs(). An extra hardlink_seen global is added as an
optimization to avoid walking the 32 entry hash array unnecessarily.
The expectation is that a "TRAILER!!!" entry will normally be present,
and initramfs hardlinks are uncommon.
There is one user facing side-effect of this fix: hardlinks can
currently be associated across built-in and external initramfs archives,
*if* the built-in initramfs archive lacks a "TRAILER!!!" terminator. I'd
consider this cross-archive association broken, but perhaps it's used.

initramfs: allocate heap buffers together
header_buf, symlink_buf and name_buf all share the same lifecycle so needn't be allocated / freed separately. This change leads to a minor reduction in .text size: before: text data bss dec hex filename 7914 1110 8 9032 2348 init/initramfs.o after: text data bss dec hex filename 7854 1110 8 8972 230c init/initramfs.o A previous iteration of this patch reused a single buffer instead of three, given that buffer use is state-sequential (GotHeader, GotName, GotSymlink). However, the slight decrease in heap use during early boot isn't really worth the extra review complexity.

rcu-tasks: Move RCU Tasks self-tests to core_initcall()
The timer and hrtimer softirq processing has moved to dedicated threads
for kernels built with CONFIG_IRQ_FORCED_THREADING=y. This results in
timers not expiring until later in early boot, which in turn causes the
RCU Tasks self-tests to hang in kernels built with CONFIG_PROVE_RCU=y,
which further causes the entire kernel to hang. One fix would be to
make timers work during this time, but there are no known users of RCU
Tasks grace periods during that time, so no justification for the added
complexity. Not yet, anyway.

timer and hrtimer kthreads are created at early_initcall() time.
