5f81ffdf26 tools/nolibc: fix the function argument order of calloc() 
As per the man page, the number of elements should be the first argument
and the size of each one the second.

Switch the arguments around.

The behavior will not change, as both arguments are only multiplied with
each other.

2111eb4273 tools/nolibc: check for overflow in malloc() 
malloc() adds the size of its header to the requested size without
checking for overflow. For a size within the header size of SIZE_MAX,
the sum wraps around to a few bytes, and malloc() returns a single page
instead of NULL.

calloc() checks its multiplication for overflow, but then passes the
product to malloc(), so calloc(SIZE_MAX, 1) returns a single page too.
So does realloc(ptr, SIZE_MAX).

Such a size is usually a bug in the caller, for instance a length of -1
used as a size_t, and returning a page instead of NULL can turn it into
a heap overflow.

Fail with ENOMEM when adding the header overflows, as glibc does for
sizes this large.

b7db3ba943 tools/nolibc: stop rounding malloc() sizes up to 4096 bytes 
malloc() rounds the size of each mapping up to a multiple of 4096,
presumably to align it to a page boundary. But the page size is not 4096
on all architectures, and mmap() and munmap() round the length up to the
page size themselves.

Drop the rounding. As heap->len is no longer rounded up, growing a block
with realloc() now always creates a new mapping.

74136192e3 tools/nolibc: make 64-bit systemcall argument padding generic 
Several 32-bit architectures pass a 64-bit systemcall argument
as two 32-bit values requiring alignment to an even register pair.
This case is currently relevant for the ftruncate64() wrapper and handled
by those architectures providing custom wrappers.
With the introduction of pread() and pwrite() wrappers, the same pattern
would lead to a lot of repeated code.

Add a #define, so that the generic code can do the padding where
necessary, without any per-architecture duplication.

0e1c44b472 tools/nolibc: add 64-bit parisc support 
Extend the existing parisc support to also handle 64-bit mode.

Some peculiarities:
* The nonstandard ftruncate64 system call requires a workaround.
* The linker defaults to main() as entry point, which needs to be
  switched to _start() explicitly.
* The linker defaults to dynamic linking, which needs to be disabled
  explicitly.
* With the default -Os, gcc does not use 64-bit multiplication
  instructions, requiring libgcc. Use -O2 instead.
* There is no qemu-user available.
* CONFIG_COMPAT needs to be disabled to avoid build errors due to a
  missing 32-bit vDSO compiler.

929ea5b348 tools/nolibc: fix FD_SET(), FD_CLR() and FD_ISSET() on 64-bit 
Since commit feaf756587 ("nolibc: fix fd_set type"), an fd_set is an
array of unsigned long, but the FD_* macros still build their masks as
an int or an unsigned int: 1 << n in FD_SET(), 1U << n in FD_CLR() and
FD_ISSET(), where n is the fd modulo 64 on 64-bit architectures. So:

- FD_SET() of an fd with n == 31 sets the bits for n = 31-63, as
  1 << 31 is negative and gets sign-extended.
- For n >= 32 the shifts are undefined. x86-64, for instance, masks
  the shift count, so FD_SET(40) and FD_ISSET(40) use the bit of fd 8.
- FD_CLR() zero-extends ~(1U << n), so it also clears the bits for
  n = 32-63, whichever fd it is given.

select() on fd 40, for instance, fails with EBADF, or watches fd 8
instead if that one is open.

Build the masks from 1UL.

00c81514ad tools/nolibc: fix readdir_r() with 64-bit directory offsets 
readdir_r() stores the result of _sys_lseek() in an int. Directory
offsets are opaque cookies which can use all 64 bits: ext4, for
instance, gives 64-bit processes 63-bit hashes, and
0x7fffffffffffffff as the offset after the last entry. Truncated to an
int, such an offset is negative about half the time, and readdir_r()
takes it for an error.

Since commit 4ada5679f1 ("tools/nolibc/dirent: avoid errno in
readdir_r"), readdir_r() fails at the first entry whose offset has
bit 31 set, which on ext4 is usually one of the first few, and returns
the truncated offset as the error number. Before that, only -1 counted
as an error, which the last entry always hits: readdir_r() then
returned errno, usually 0, without filling in the entry, so the caller
got the previous entry a second time and never saw the last one.

32-bit processes get 31-bit hashes from ext4 and are not affected.

Keep the offset in an off_t.

6f114ae7b6 tools/nolibc: fix verrx() and errx() message formatting 
verrx() passes its va_list to warnx() instead of vwarnx(). warnx() is
variadic, so it takes the va_list as its first and only argument, and
the conversions in the format string print the va_list itself and then
whatever is left in the following argument slots. On x86_64, for
instance,

	errx(1, "int args: %d %d %d", 1, 2, 3);

prints something like "int args: -1699009032 1 2", where the first
number comes from the address of the va_list and changes from run to
run, and

	errx(1, "%d %s", 1234, "foo");

crashes with SIGSEGV, as "%s" takes a leftover argument slot for the
string. errx() goes through verrx(), so every message with arguments
printed by either of them is wrong.

Call vwarnx() from verrx(), as verr() calls vwarn().

368fae47c6 tools/nolibc: fix WIFSIGNALED() for status 0 
WIFSIGNALED() needs the subtraction to wrap around for status 0, so that
only 1 to 0xff, a terminating signal with or without the core dump flag,
pass the check. But status is an int, and 0 - 1 is -1, which is less
than 0xff. A child that exits with 0 is therefore reported as both
exited and killed, and a caller that tests WIFSIGNALED() first sees
"killed by signal 0".

Make the subtraction unsigned, as musl does in the same macro.

bd7d30bd1d xsk: align TX metadata layout across ABIs 
Add explicit padding before launch_time so xsk_tx_metadata has the same
layout on 32-bit and 64-bit systems.

On several architectures (csky, i386, nios2, m65k, openrisc, sh), the old
native 32-bit layout put launch_time at offset 12 and had a natural size of
20 bytes. Using sizeof(struct xsk_tx_metadata) as tx_metadata_len was already
rejected because the length must be a multiple of eight, so the
straightforward use of the interface was broken on those ABIs. Userspace
could still register a padded length of 24 bytes, though; mixing the old and
new layouts then silently reads launch_time from the wrong offset and
misprograms packet launch times. This intentionally replaces that
incompatible layout because the affected architectures are unlikely to
have any notable users. (x86_64 and arm64 have the most users and are _not_
affected)

 - The 2 patch series "mm/kasan: remove redundant initialization for
   kasan_flag_write_only" from Igor Putko provides some KASAN cleanup work.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/filemap: reduce unnecessary xarray lookups"
   from Chi Zhiling provides a small speedup in the pagecaache read code.
 
 - The 4 patch series "mm/percpu: Fix possible NOFS/NOIO reclaim

   mainly the avoidance of GFP_KERNEL allocations when the caller asked for
   GFP_NOFS or GFP_NOIO.
 
 - The 3 patch series "mm/kmemleak: avoid soft lockup when scanning task
   stacks" from Breno Leitao avoids a soft lockup watchdog trigger from the
   kmemleak scanning code in extreme situations.
 
 - The 6 patch series "mm/page_owner: misc cleanups" from Ye Liu is a
   collection of unrelated cleanups to the page_owner code.  For some
   reason lots of people have been working on the page_owner code this
   cycle.
 
 - The 4 patch series "mm: convert to walk_page_range_vma() to eliminate
   find_vma()" from Kefeng Wang simplifies and accelerates the page walking
   library function.
 
 - The 3 patch series "mm/migrate: preparatory cleanups for batch copy
   and offload" from Shivank Garg implements cleanups in the migration
   code.
 
 - The 4 patch series "mm/page_owner: add per-fd filter infrastructure
   for print_mode and NUMA filtering" from Zhen Ni provides per-fd
   filtering to page_owner in order to reduce the sometimes vast amount of
   output it can produce.
 
 - The 19 patch series "mm: Refactor bootmem gigantic hugepage
   allocation" from Muchun Song is a "set of fixes and preparatory cleanups
   around bootmem HugeTLB handling, sparse initialization ordering, and
   related vmemmap setup".
 
 - The 4 patch series "mm/zsmalloc: reduce lock contention in zs_free()"
   from Wenchao Hao reduces lock contention in zs_free(), which dominates
   the unmap path under memory pressure on Android (LMK kills) and on x86
   servers running zswap-heavy workloads.  Up to 1.83x improvement in
   microbenchmarking.
 
 - The 2 patch series "move alloc_tag.c file under mm/" from Suren
   Baghdasaryan does that.
 
 - The 6 patch series "samples/damon: handle damon_{start,stop}()
   failures" from SJ Park fixes improper handling of damon_start(),
   damon_stop(), and damon_call() failures across DAMON sample modules to
   prevent potential memory leaks, operation disruptions and use-after-free
   bugs.
 
 - The 11 patch series "mm/damon/sysfs: kobject_del() directories that
   users can create/remove" from SJ Park resolves an issue where delayed
   sysfs directory removal under CONFIG_DEBUG_KOBJECT_RELEASE causes
   creation failures due to duplicate directory names by adding missing
   kobject_del() calls before creating new directories.
 
 - The 3 patch series "mm: cleanup clear_not_present_full_ptes()" from
   David Hildenbrand cleans up the core pte handling code.
 
 - The 3 patch series "selftests/damon: misc fixes for test bugs" from
   Kunwu Chan fixes several bugs in the DAMON selftests.
 
 - The 2 patch series "selftests/damon: fix memcg_path staging handling"
   from Cheng Nie fixes a bug in _damon_sysfs.py for damos_filter
   memcg_path setup, and adds a test case for it in sysfs.py.
 
 - The 2 patch series "selftests/damon: test kdamond refresh_ms" from
   Ruslan Valiyev introduces selftest coverage for DAMON's refresh_ms sysfs
   feature by updating the test control module and verifying that scheme
   stats update automatically without manual intervention.
 
 - The 5 patch series "mm/damon: five misc fixups" from Akinobu Mita
   contains miscellaneous DAMON fixups.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/damon/core: detect internal variation above
   max_nr_regions/2" from Jiayuan Chen fixes DAMON's region splitting
   behavior when region counts exceed half the maximum budget by
   dynamically scaling down the split fraction as the limit approaches,
   preventing large regions from staying un-split, and adds corresponding
   KUnit test coverage.
 
 - The 6 patch series "mm: preparatory patches for PMD level swap
   entries" from Usama Arif refactors and cleans up PMD softleaf helpers,
   call sites, and architecture flags to lay the groundwork for a follow-up
   series that introduces PMD page table swap entries.
 
 - The 11 patch series "mm/damon: update, optimize, and clean up doc,
   tests, and code" from SJ Park updates DAMON design and ABI
   documentation, expands unit and selftest coverage, optimizes
   damon_commit_target_regions(), and cleans up recently added sysfs
   interface code for better readability.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/vmpressure: reduce CPU, memory and code
   overhead on cgroup v2" from Usama Arif optimizes vmpressure() by
   skipping unnecessary work on cgroup v2 for userspace event notifications
   and refactors v1-only eventfd handling into mm/memcontrol-v1.c to reduce
   memory overhead and code complexity.
 
 - The 10 patch series "selftests/mm: refactor pkey helpers and fix mmap
   error handling" from Hongfu Li refactors pkeys shared tracing and
   assertion helpers into a common file, unifies protection key selftests
   to use consistent diagnostic logging and assertions, and enforces
   standardized MAP_FAILED return checks for mmap() calls across the tests.
 
 - The 18 patch series "mm/damon: optimize out nr_accesses_bp" from SJ
   Park replaces the error-prone, continuously updated nr_accesses_bp field
   in damon_region with an on-demand moving sum function
   (damon_nr_accesses_mvsum()), reducing structure memory overhead and
   avoiding state corruption bugs.
 
 - The 6 patch series "Open HugeTLB allocation routine for more generic
   use" from Ackerley Tng decouples HugeTLB folio allocation from VMA
   dependencies by introducing hugetlb_alloc_folio(), enabling subsystems
   like guest_memfd to allocate HugeTLB folios without standard VMA
   reservations or pseudo-VMAs.
 
 - The 3 patch series "mm/damon: provide pseudo moving sum probe_hits"
   from SJ Park integrates DAMON's probe_hits attribute counter into the
   pseudo moving sum infrastructure, enabling real-time, online monitoring
   without waiting for full aggregation intervals.
 
 - The 18 patch series "mm: Some cleanups for page allocator APIs" from
   Brendan Jackman simplifies and refactors the page allocator entry points
   and flags by unifying allocation paths, adding internal alloc_flags
   arguments, and eliminating redundant __ prefixed alloc_pages variants.
 
 - The 5 patch series "Fix incorrect access of hugetlb pte entries" from
   Dev Jain enforces the consistent use of huge_ptep_get() instead of
   ptep_get() for HugeTLB entries and fixes an unaligned address issue in
   arm64's huge_ptep_get() implementation.
 
 - The 8 patch series "mm/damon: validate all parameters in the core"
   from SJ Park consolidates parameter validation into the DAMON core
   specifically within damon_start() and damon_commit_ctx() to centralize
   error checking, eliminate caller-side redundant checks and to improve
   maintenance efficiency.
 
 - The 3 patch series "tools/mm/page_owner_sort: fix filtering and
   cleanup issues" from Yichong Chen renames is_need() to filter_record()
   for clearer return semantics, fixes per-record allocation memory leaks
   and bounds output copies in search_pattern() to address an existing
   buffer issue.
 
 - The 4 patch series "memcg: bail out reclaim when memcg is dying" from
   Jiayuan Chen mitigates a system-wide stall which occurs when a cgroup is
   removed while one of its memory control files is doing synchronous
   reclaim.
 
 - The 5 patch series "mm/memory-failure: add panic option for
   unrecoverable pages" from Breno Leitao introduces an opt-in
   vm.panic_on_unrecoverable_memory_failure sysctl that immediately panics
   the kernel on unrecoverable memory errors in kernel-owned pages to
   preserve error context and prevent delayed, silent data corruption.
 
 - The 11 patch series "mm/damon: refactor damon_{start,stop,commit}()
   for simple error handling" from SJ Park refactors the DAMON core API
   functions to guarantee that all contexts are fully stopped when
   damon_start(), damon_stop(), or damon_commit() fail, eliminating the
   need for complex and error-prone caller-side cleanup code.
 
 - The 5 patch series "Keep tail page private zero at free and folio
   split" from Zi Yan adds checks to ensure tail_page->private is zero when
   freeing compound or high-order pages and when promoting tail pages
   during large folio splits.  By validating these fields at free and split
   time, it allows the removal of redundant private field clearing inside
   prep_compound_tail().
 
 - The 4 patch series "mm: drop redundant lru_add_drain in anon folio
   reuse paths" from Barry Song eliminates redundant lru_add_drain() calls
   in wp_can_reuse_anon_folio() and do_swap_page() to reduce LRU lock
   contention and system overhead.
 
   By validating folio refcounts against the LRU cache before draining
   and removing unnecessary drains in the swap path, it achieves up to a
   30.5% reduction in drain calls during heavy swap workloads.
 
 - The 3 patch series "mm: clean up folio LRU and swap declarations" from
   Jianyue Wu reorganizes folio LRU and swap code by relocating
   page-cluster state to mm/swap_state.c, renaming mm/swap.c to mm/folio.c,
   and moving MM-internal reclaim declarations into mm/internal.h.
 
 - The 15 patch series "userfaultfd: working set tracking for VM guest
   memory" from Kiryl Shutsemau adds userfaultfd support for tracking the
   working set of VM guest memory, so a VMM can identify hot pages and
   reclaim cold ones to tiered or remote storage.
 
 - The 10 patch series "mm: remove CONFIG_HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE (Part
   2)" from David Hildenbrand removes the remaining pieces of
   CONFIG_HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE, performing some smaller cleanups around
   freeing of reserved vmemmap pages on the way.
 
 - The 7 patch series "mm/damon: update probe hits for runtime parameter
   commits" from SJ Park ensures that DAMON's probe_hits attribute counter
   is properly updated when monitoring intervals are changed at runtime,
   matching the behavior of nr_accesses.  To achieve this, it refactors and
   renames existing helper functions for shared use, applies the updates to
   probe_hits, and handles edge cases in damon_probe_hits_mvsum() to
   maintain measurement accuracy.
 
 - The 3 patch series "KSM: performance optimizations for rmap_walk_ksm"
   from xu xin resolves a severe KSM reverse-mapping performance bottleneck
   where thousands of split VMAs sharing a single anon_vma cause extended
   lock contention.  By adding an interval-filtering check during the rmap
   walk, it reduces worst-case anon_vma lock hold times from over 500ms
   down to under 2ms, preventing application freezes and latency spikes
   under memory pressure.
 
 - The 3 patch series "mm: split a couple of headers from internal.h"
   from Mike Rapoport splits declarations related to mm_init, memblock,
   vmalloc and sparse into new headers.
 
 - The 2 patch series "KSM: use linear_page_index in collect_procs_ksm()"
   from xu xin applies the interval tree optimization from rmap_walk_ksm()
   to collect_procs_ksm() to avoid iterating over non-matching VMAs during
   KSM memory error handling.  It hoists loop-invariant address
   initialization and restricts the anon_vma_interval_tree_foreach walk to
   a targeted page offset range, reducing redundant checks and improving
   lookup efficiency.
 
 - The 3 patch series "selftests/mm: avoid false failures in hugetlb and
   KSM tests" from Sayali Patil fixes issues in the hugetlb and KSM MM
   selftest categories that can report failures when the prerequisites for
   the tests are not satisfied.
 
 - The 19 patch series "mm/damon: introduce data attributes only
   monitoring" from SJ Park introduces attribute-weighted region management
   in DAMON, allowing users to prioritize specific data attributes (such as
   page sizes or cgroups) over or instead of access monitoring.
 
   By assigning weights to attribute probes, DAMON can completely disable
   access tracking and adjust monitoring regions based on weighted
   probe-hit counters to optimize monitoring quality for attribute-focused
   workloads.
 
 - The 8 patch series "mm/hmm: Add mmap lock-drop support for
   userfaultfd-backed mappings" from Stanislav Kinsburskii extends
   hmm_range_fault() to support userfaultfd-backed regions by allowing the
   mmap lock to be dropped during fault handling via a new
   hmm_range_fault_locked() helper.
 
   By accepting a locked pointer and signaling retry status when lock
   release occurs, it enables page fault resolution in userfaultfd regions
   while preserving backward compatibility for existing callers.
 
 - The 33 patch series "mm: make VMA page offset handling more
   consistent" from Lorenzo Stoakes cleans up and standardizes how
   vma->vm_pgoff is accessed and manipulated across file-backed and
   anonymous mappings in the kernel.
 
   It introduces dedicated helper functions such as vma_start_pgoff(),
   vma_end_pgoff(), vma_set_pgoff() and linear_page_delta() while renaming
   rmap interval tree helpers to better reflect their functionality.
 
   These changes establish a cleaner foundation for future work that will
   unify virtual page offset indexing for all anonymous and CoW'd folios.
 
 - The 3 patch series "mm: handle device-private PMDs in walk callbacks"
   from Usama Arif addresses kernel panics and state corruption caused by
   MM walk callbacks reaching non-present device-private PMD swap entries
   created during HMM migrations.
 
   It ensures that functions which acquire pmd_trans_huge_lock() properly
   recognize device-private PMDs instead of assuming a present THP or a
   standard migration entry.
 
 - The 5 patch series "mm/rmap: Refactor try_to_unmap_one" from Dev Jain
   refactors try_to_unmap_one by modularizing Hugetlb, anonymous-lazyfree,
   and anonymous-swapbacked logic into dedicated functions, laying the
   structural groundwork for batched anonymous large folio unmapping.
 
 - The 4 patch series "Docs/ABI/damon: sysfs ABI document fixes and
   additions" from Song Hu fixes typos and fills in missing entries in the
   DAMON sysfs ABI document.
 
 - The 10 patch series "dax/kmem: atomic whole-device hotplug via sysfs"
   from Gregory Price introduces an atomic sysfs state attribute and
   supporting DAX/MM infrastructure to prevent userland races when
   offlining and removing entire memory regions.
 
   By adding an unplugged state alongside standard online modes, it
   enables whole-device atomic hotplug control while preserving backward
   compatibility.
 
 - The 13 patch series "mm: convert more vm_flags_t users to vma_flags_t"
   from Lorenzo Stoakes continues transitioning the kernel from the
   deprecated vm_flags_t type to vma_flags_t across core memory management
   infrastructure.
 
   It replaces legacy type usage in core functions such as do_mmap(),
   unmapped area allocation, mm->def_vma_flags, and VMA operations like
   mlock, mprotect, and mremap.
 
 - The 2 patch series "Two small patches to clean up mm/mm_slot.h" from
   xu xin refactors mm_slot.h by introducing mm_slot_remove() to unify
   duplicate slot deletion sequences in khugepaged and KSM.  It also adds
   code documentation explaining why mm_slot_lookup and mm_slot_insert must
   remain as preprocessor macros rather than static inline functions.
 
 - The 10 patch series "mm/damon/core: hide core-private struct fields"
   from SJ Park cleans up DAMON core structures by consistently marking
   internal-only fields with private: comment tags to prevent improper
   direct access from outer layers.
 
   It enforces encapsulation across core structures including
   damon_region, damon_target, and damon_ctx and updates DAMON_SYSFS to
   interact through approved access APIs instead of exposing raw struct
   members.
 
 - The 6 patch series "mm/damon: unurgent fixes for infinite loop, NULL
   de-ref and races" from SJ Park addresses potential infinite loops, NULL
   dereferences, and race conditions identified in DAMON.
 
   It fixes an infinite loop triggered by extreme user configurations, a
   NULL pointer dereference within unit tests and minor monitoring
   accuracy degradation caused by subtle runtime races.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/page_alloc: fixes for free_pages_nolock() on
   RT/UP" from Brendan Jackman fixes an NMI safety flaw in
   __free_frozen_pages() where freeing pages on non-SMP or PREEMPT_RT
   kernels can bypass can_spin_trylock() checks via non-PCP or isolated
   migration paths.
 
   It also resolves potential kernel crashes and privilege escalation
   risks triggered when BPF tracing runs in NMI context alongside memory
   hotplug or large allocation frees.
 
 - The 4 patch series "mm/page_alloc: couple of followups for recent
   cleanups" from Brendan Jackman cleans up and updates page allocator
   nomenclature, documentation, and debug assertions.
 
   It aligns internal FPI_ flags with the public "nolock" naming
   convention, removes outdated internal implementation details from
   high-level page allocator comments, and eliminates obsolete VM_BUG_ON()
   assertions in allocation paths.
 
 - The 3 patch series "mm/mseal: further cleanups" from Lorenzo Stoakes
   refactors and simplifies the mseal implementation by clarifying API
   boundaries and removing unnecessary code complexity.
 
   It replaces generic do_mseal() usage outside the syscall with a
   dedicated mseal_mmap_page_zero() helper for MMAP_PAGE_ZERO, eliminates
   mm_struct parameters to enforce that sealing applies only to
   current->mm, and streamlines overall logic and comments with no
   functional changes intended.
 
 - The 4 patch series "mm/vmscan: fix swappiness=max and clean up
   per-node proactive reclaim" from Ridong Chen resolves reclaim behavior
   bugs and cleans up function parameters across memory reclaim paths.
 
   It fixes swappiness=max in both standard reclaim and MGLRU so
   unswappable anonymous memory no longer falls back to evicting page
   cache, ensures reclaim_store() returns accurate error codes instead of
   collapsing all failures into -EAGAIN, and removes the obsolete gfp_mask
   parameter from __node_reclaim().
 
 - The 6 patch series "mm: mincore: misc cleanups" from Kefeng Wang
   cleans up and simplifies the mincore code.  Most importantly, it removes
   the historical special behavior that always reports VM_PFNMAP pages as
   non-resident.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/huge_memory: drop dead split helper variants"
   from Kiryl Shutsemau implements two trivial cleanups in the folio split
   API.
 
 - The 7 patch series "mm/damon: fix uninitialized DAMOS field and kunit
   exec expectation bugs" from SJ Park resolves minor operational and
   testing bugs in DAMON identified by Sashiko.  It initializes the
   damos->last_applied field to prevent occasional efficiency degradation
   and fixes invalid memory accesses in DAMON KUnit tests during test
   failure handling.
 
 - The 3 patch series "cleanup for stable_page_flags()" from Jinjiang Tu
   cleans up and refactors stable_page_flags() used by /proc/kpageflags
   without altering functionality.
 
   It uses BIT_ULL() to prevent shift-overflow warnings on 64-bit flag
   bits, converts folio-specific flag checks to standard folio_test_*()
   helpers, and removes redundant CONFIG_PAGE_IDLE_FLAG handling.
 
 - The 3 patch series "Batch unmap of uffd-wp file folios" from Dev Jain
   extends batched folio unmapping support to file folios within
   userfaultfd write-protect (uffd-wp) VMAs by adding batching capabilities
   to pte_install_uffd_wp_if_needed().
 
   This removes special-case restrictions on uffd-wp VMAs in
   try_to_unmap_one(), significantly simplifying the function's control
   flow and complexity.
 
 - The 3 patch series "mm/early_ioremap: clarify and clean up
   early_ioremap_reset()" from Sang-Heon Jeon clarifies and cleans up the
   architecture-specific usage of __late_set_fixmap() and
   __late_clear_fixmap() after early_ioremap_reset().
 
   It adds explicit documentation regarding when early_ioremap_reset()
   must be called and removes redundant macro definitions and reset calls
   in the RISC-V and ARM64 architectures.
 
 - The 4 patch series "mm: fix reclaim storms in defrag_mode" from
   Johannes Weiner addresses severe performance regressions, swap storms,
   and spurious OOMs caused by vm.defrag_mode=1 under high memory pressure
   in Meta production.
 
   It updates the page allocator slowpath so non-movable allocation
   requests actively trigger direct reclaim and direct compaction at
   pageblock_order scale, allowing them to claim whole pageblocks rather
   than spinning unproductively.
 
 - The 2 patch series "zram: lockmap tweaks" from Sebastian Siewior
   optimizes and fixes lockdep tracking for zram devices by consolidating
   per-entry lockmaps and isolating lock classes across multiple instances.
 
   It reduces memory overhead by replacing per-entry lockdep_map instances
   with a single map per struct zram, and assigns a dynamic lock_class_key
   to each instance to prevent false deadlock reports when different zram
   devices are backed by distinct filesystems.

   kernel-owned pages to preserve error context and prevent delayed,
   silent data corruption

 - "mm/damon: refactor damon_{start,stop,commit}() for simple error
   handling" (SJ Park)

   Refactor the DAMON core API functions to guarantee that all contexts
   are fully stopped when damon_start(), damon_stop(), or damon_commit()
   fail, eliminating the need for complex and error-prone caller-side
   cleanup code

 - "Keep tail page private zero at free and folio split" (Zi Yan)

   Add checks to ensure tail_page->private is zero when freeing compound
   or high-order pages and when promoting tail pages during large folio
   splits. By validating these fields at free and split time, it allows
   the removal of redundant private field clearing inside
   prep_compound_tail()

 - "mm: drop redundant lru_add_drain in anon folio reuse paths" (Barry
   Song)

   Eliminate redundant lru_add_drain() calls in
   wp_can_reuse_anon_folio() and do_swap_page() to reduce LRU lock
   contention and system overhead

   By validating folio refcounts against the LRU cache before draining
   and removing unnecessary drains in the swap path, it achieves up to a
   30.5% reduction in drain calls during heavy swap workloads

 - "mm: clean up folio LRU and swap declarations" (Jianyue Wu)

   Reorganize folio LRU and swap code by relocating page-cluster state
   to mm/swap_state.c, renaming mm/swap.c to mm/folio.c, and moving
   MM-internal reclaim declarations into mm/internal.h.

 - "userfaultfd: working set tracking for VM guest memory" (Kiryl
   Shutsemau)

   Add userfaultfd support for tracking the working set of VM guest
   memory, so a VMM can identify hot pages and reclaim cold ones to
   tiered or remote storage

 - "mm: remove CONFIG_HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE (Part 2)" (David
   Hildenbrand)

   Remove the remaining pieces of CONFIG_HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE,
   performing some smaller cleanups around freeing of reserved vmemmap
   pages on the way.

 - "mm/damon: update probe hits for runtime parameter commits" (SJ Park)

   Ensure that DAMON's probe_hits attribute counter is properly updated
   when monitoring intervals are changed at runtime, matching the
   behavior of nr_accesses. To achieve this, it refactors and renames
   existing helper functions for shared use, applies the updates to
   probe_hits, and handles edge cases in damon_probe_hits_mvsum() to
   maintain measurement accuracy.

 - "KSM: performance optimizations for rmap_walk_ksm" (xu xin)

   Resolve a severe KSM reverse-mapping performance bottleneck where
   thousands of split VMAs sharing a single anon_vma cause extended lock
   contention.

   By adding an interval-filtering check during the rmap walk, it
   reduces worst-case anon_vma lock hold times from over 500ms down to
   under 2ms, preventing application freezes and latency spikes under
   memory pressure.

 - "mm: split a couple of headers from internal.h" (Mike Rapoport)

   Split declarations related to mm_init, memblock, vmalloc and sparse
   into new headers

 - "KSM: use linear_page_index in collect_procs_ksm()" (xu xin)

   Apply the interval tree optimization from rmap_walk_ksm() to
   collect_procs_ksm() to avoid iterating over non-matching VMAs during
   KSM memory error handling.

   It hoists loop-invariant address initialization and restricts the
   anon_vma_interval_tree_foreach walk to a targeted page offset range,
   reducing redundant checks and improving lookup efficiency.

 - "selftests/mm: avoid false failures in hugetlb and KSM tests" (Sayali
   Patil)

   Fix issues in the hugetlb and KSM MM selftest categories that can
   report failures when the prerequisites for the tests are not
   satisfied

 - "mm/damon: introduce data attributes only monitoring" (SJ Park)

   Introduce attribute-weighted region management in DAMON, allowing
   users to prioritize specific data attributes (such as page sizes or
   cgroups) over or instead of access monitoring.

   By assigning weights to attribute probes, DAMON can completely
   disable access tracking and adjust monitoring regions based on
   weighted probe-hit counters to optimize monitoring quality for
   attribute-focused workloads.

 - "mm/hmm: Add mmap lock-drop support for userfaultfd-backed mappings"
   (Stanislav Kinsburskii)

   Extend hmm_range_fault() to support userfaultfd-backed regions by
   allowing the mmap lock to be dropped during fault handling via a new
   hmm_range_fault_locked() helper.

   By accepting a locked pointer and signaling retry status when lock
   release occurs, it enables page fault resolution in userfaultfd
   regions while preserving backward compatibility for existing callers.

 - "mm: make VMA page offset handling more consistent" (Lorenzo Stoakes)

   Clean up and standardize how vma->vm_pgoff is accessed and
   manipulated across file-backed and anonymous mappings in the kernel

   It introduces dedicated helper functions such as vma_start_pgoff(),
   vma_end_pgoff(), vma_set_pgoff() and linear_page_delta() while
   renaming rmap interval tree helpers to better reflect their
   functionality.

   These changes establish a cleaner foundation for future work that
   will unify virtual page offset indexing for all anonymous and CoW'd
   folios.

 - "mm: handle device-private PMDs in walk callbacks" (Usama Arif)

   Address kernel panics and state corruption caused by MM walk
   callbacks reaching non-present device-private PMD swap entries
   created during HMM migrations

   It ensures that functions which acquire pmd_trans_huge_lock()
   properly recognize device-private PMDs instead of assuming a present
   THP or a standard migration entry.

 - "mm/rmap: Refactor try_to_unmap_one" (Dev Jain)

   Refactor try_to_unmap_one by modularizing Hugetlb,
   anonymous-lazyfree, and anonymous-swapbacked logic into dedicated
   functions, laying the structural groundwork for batched anonymous
   large folio unmapping.

 - "Docs/ABI/damon: sysfs ABI document fixes and additions" (Song Hu)

   Fix typos and fills in missing entries in the DAMON sysfs ABI
   document

 - "dax/kmem: atomic whole-device hotplug via sysfs" (Gregory Price)

   Introduce an atomic sysfs state attribute and supporting DAX/MM
   infrastructure to prevent userland races when offlining and removing
   entire memory regions

   By adding an unplugged state alongside standard online modes, it
   enables whole-device atomic hotplug control while preserving backward
   compatibility.

 - "mm: convert more vm_flags_t users to vma_flags_t" (Lorenzo Stoakes)

   Continue transitioning the kernel from the deprecated vm_flags_t type
   to vma_flags_t across core memory management infrastructure.

   It replaces legacy type usage in core functions such as do_mmap(),
   unmapped area allocation, mm->def_vma_flags, and VMA operations like
   mlock, mprotect, and mremap.

 - "Two small patches to clean up mm/mm_slot.h" (xu xin)

   Refactor mm_slot.h by introducing mm_slot_remove() to unify duplicate
   slot deletion sequences in khugepaged and KSM. It also adds code
   documentation explaining why mm_slot_lookup and mm_slot_insert must
   remain as preprocessor macros rather than static inline functions.

 - "mm/damon/core: hide core-private struct fields" (SJ Park)

   Clean up DAMON core structures by consistently marking internal-only
   fields with private: comment tags to prevent improper direct access
   from outer layers.

   It enforces encapsulation across core structures including
   damon_region, damon_target, and damon_ctx and updates DAMON_SYSFS to
   interact through approved access APIs instead of exposing raw struct
   members.

 - "mm/damon: unurgent fixes for infinite loop, NULL de-ref and races"
   (SJ Park)

   Address potential infinite loops, NULL dereferences, and race
   conditions identified in DAMON

   It fixes an infinite loop triggered by extreme user configurations, a
   NULL pointer dereference within unit tests and minor monitoring
   accuracy degradation caused by subtle runtime races.

 - "mm/page_alloc: fixes for free_pages_nolock() on RT/UP" (Brendan
   Jackman)

   Fix an NMI safety flaw in __free_frozen_pages() where freeing pages
   on non-SMP or PREEMPT_RT kernels can bypass can_spin_trylock() checks
   via non-PCP or isolated migration paths.

   It also resolves potential kernel crashes and privilege escalation
   risks triggered when BPF tracing runs in NMI context alongside memory
   hotplug or large allocation frees.

 - "mm/page_alloc: couple of followups for recent cleanups" (Brendan
   Jackman)

   Clean up and update page allocator nomenclature, documentation, and
   debug assertions.

   It aligns internal FPI_ flags with the public "nolock" naming
   convention, removes outdated internal implementation details from
   high-level page allocator comments, and eliminates obsolete
   VM_BUG_ON() assertions in allocation paths.

 - "mm/mseal: further cleanups" (Lorenzo Stoakes)

   Refactor and simplify the mseal implementation by clarifying API
   boundaries and removing unnecessary code complexity.

   It replaces generic do_mseal() usage outside the syscall with a
   dedicated mseal_mmap_page_zero() helper for MMAP_PAGE_ZERO,
   eliminates mm_struct parameters to enforce that sealing applies only
   to current->mm, and streamlines overall logic and comments with no
   functional changes intended.

 - "mm/vmscan: fix swappiness=max and clean up per-node proactive
   reclaim" (Ridong Chen)

   Resolve reclaim behavior bugs and clean up function parameters across
   memory reclaim paths

   It fixes swappiness=max in both standard reclaim and MGLRU so
   unswappable anonymous memory no longer falls back to evicting page
   cache, ensures reclaim_store() returns accurate error codes instead
   of collapsing all failures into -EAGAIN, and removes the obsolete
   gfp_mask parameter from __node_reclaim().

 - "mm: mincore: misc cleanups" (Kefeng Wang)

   Clean up and simplifies the mincore code. Most importantly, it
   removes the historical special behavior that always reports VM_PFNMAP
   pages as non-resident.

 - "mm/huge_memory: drop dead split helper variants" (Kiryl Shutsemau)

   Two trivial cleanups in the folio split API

 - "mm/damon: fix uninitialized DAMOS field and kunit exec expectation
   bugs" (SJ Park)

   Resolve minor operational and testing bugs in DAMON identified by
   Sashiko. It initializes the damos->last_applied field to prevent
   occasional efficiency degradation and fixes invalid memory accesses
   in DAMON KUnit tests during test failure handling.

 - "cleanup for stable_page_flags()" (Jinjiang Tu)

   Clean up and refactor stable_page_flags() used by /proc/kpageflags
   without altering functionality.

   It uses BIT_ULL() to prevent shift-overflow warnings on 64-bit flag
   bits, converts folio-specific flag checks to standard folio_test_*()
   helpers, and removes redundant CONFIG_PAGE_IDLE_FLAG handling.

 - "Batch unmap of uffd-wp file folios" (Dev Jain)

   Extend batched folio unmapping support to file folios within
   userfaultfd write-protect (uffd-wp) VMAs by adding batching
   capabilities to pte_install_uffd_wp_if_needed().

   This removes special-case restrictions on uffd-wp VMAs in
   try_to_unmap_one(), significantly simplifying the function's control
   flow and complexity.

 - "mm/early_ioremap: clarify and clean up early_ioremap_reset()"
   (Sang-Heon Jeon)

   Clarify and clean up the architecture-specific usage of
   __late_set_fixmap() and __late_clear_fixmap() after
   early_ioremap_reset()

   It adds explicit documentation regarding when early_ioremap_reset()
   must be called and removes redundant macro definitions and reset
   calls in the RISC-V and ARM64 architectures.

 - "mm: fix reclaim storms in defrag_mode" (Johannes Weiner)

   Address severe performance regressions, swap storms, and spurious
   OOMs caused by vm.defrag_mode=1 under high memory pressure in Meta
   production

   It updates the page allocator slowpath so non-movable allocation
   requests actively trigger direct reclaim and direct compaction at
   pageblock_order scale, allowing them to claim whole pageblocks rather
   than spinning unproductively.

 - "zram: lockmap tweaks" (Sebastian Siewior)

   Optimize and fix lockdep tracking for zram devices by consolidating
   per-entry lockmaps and isolate lock classes across multiple instances

   This reduces memory overhead by replacing per-entry lockdep_map
   instances with a single map per struct zram, and assigns a dynamic
   lock_class_key to each instance to prevent false deadlock reports
   when different zram devices are backed by distinct filesystems.

Merge tag 'net-next-7.3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
 "One of the 'small improvements all over the place' releases for us.

  It's hard to draw any direct comparisons because summer vacations
  disrupted our patch processing (and presumably - generation) quite a
  bit.

  Quick and dirty count suggests we (Paolo and I) merged a very similar
  number of net (632) and net-next (648) patches. This is not telling
  the full story either because 1/3 to 1/2 of the net-next patches also
  *seem* like AI-driven low priority fixes, cleanups and clarifications.

  We are completely overwhelmed, of course. The glimmer of hope is that
  we secured sufficient LLM budget and access (thank you Meta!) to run
  reviews with multiple frontier models on each patch. This eliminates
  some hallucinations. That said, in terms of review, the LLMs can only
  do so much.

  The sad truth is that our APIs (especially for rare events like PCIe
  errors, timeouts etc) have always been racy, and now LLMs don't let us
  ignore that. I expect our direction for the next release will be to
  tweak the reviews a little bit more, but start shifting focus to
  letting the LLMs take care of the busy work - managing patchwork,
  automating common process complaints, editing commit messages, and
  maybe applying patches which already got "reviewed-by" tags from
  people we trust...

Linus Torvalds
5a8cd539ac Major changes: 
- Redesign the verifier error reporting: failures now carry source and
   instruction annotations along with the causal event history that led
   to them, making program rejections far easier to debug and repair
   (Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi)
 
 - Add arena argument support to kfuncs and struct_ops through the new
   __arena and __arena__nullable suffixes (Tejun Heo, Puranjay Mohan,
   Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi, Ihor Solodrai)
 
 - Signed BPF program loader rework to accommodate both BPF and security
   community needs where the kernel runs the signature verification at
   BPF_PROG_LOAD time before the LSM admission hook (Daniel Borkmann)
 
 - Add a set of ksock kfuncs which let BPF LSM and syscall programs
   create, connect and send on UDP sockets in order to emit telemetry
   data (Mahe Tardy)
 
 - Unify helper and kfunc call argument verification and classify kfunc
   arguments purely from BTF into a generated bpf_func_proto which is
   computed once at add-call time (Amery Hung)
 
 Other features and fixes:
 
 - Enable EXECMEM_ROX_CACHE for BPF allocations on x86 (Mike Rapoport)
 
 - Add bidirectional VLAN support to bpf_fib_lookup() through the new
   BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_VLAN and BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_VLAN_INPUT flags
   (Avinash Duduskar)
 
 - Infer zext_dst from static register liveness analysis to fix 32-bit
   zero-extension semantics, and remove the artificial limitations on
   pointer types eligible for spilling (Eduard Zingerman)
 
 - Inline the numeric open-coded iterator kfuncs so that bpf_for() loops
   no longer pay a kfunc call on every iteration (Puranjay Mohan)
 
 - Add an arena-based bitmap data structure to libarena along with
   serial and parallel selftests (Emil Tsalapatis)
 
 - Teach resolve_btfids to discover kfuncs from the kernel's BTF ID sets
   and to emit kfunc BTF decl tags, reducing the kernel build's
   dependency on pahole features (Ihor Solodrai)
 
 - Add BPF_F_ADJ_ROOM_DECAP_* flags to bpf_skb_adjust_room() so that
   tunnel decapsulation can update the GSO and encapsulation state of
   the skb (Nick Hudson)
 
 - Fix the ring buffer pending_pos walk and the available-data
   accounting on 32-bit position wrap (Israel Téllez García)
 
 - Add memory usage accounting for arena maps and fix an mmap_lock
   deadlock on arena lock failure (Jiayuan Chen)
 
 - Add tracing_multi link info support to the kernel UAPI and bpftool,
   and refactor the stack map code to run with preemption disabled
   (Jiri Olsa)
 
 - Support BPF_F_EGRESS in bpf_redirect_peer() to emit the skb in the
   egress direction of the target's peer device (Jordan Rife)
 
 - Add a KF_SPINLOCK_SAFE kfunc flag so that providers, in particular
   modules, can declare kfuncs safe to call under bpf_spin_lock instead
   of relying on the verifier's hard-coded allowlist (Kaitao Cheng)
 
 - Introduce global percpu data for BPF programs with libbpf probing
   and bpftool skeleton support, and stop exposing uninitialized kernel
   heap memory when copying per-CPU map values (Leon Hwang)
 
 - Add s390 JIT support for load-acquire and store-release instructions
   (Maxim Khmelevskii)
 
 - Fix a CFI mismatch in the task work callback and an arm64 KASAN
   false positive after bpf_throw() (Mykyta Yatsenko)
 
 - Reject writes through untrusted BTF pointers and bound the
   rdonly/rdwr_buf_size kfunc arguments (Nicholas Dudar)
 
 - Invalidate RCU pointers only after the final spin unlock and account
   for preempt and IRQ disabled regions as overlapping RCU protection
   (Ning Ding)
 
 - Support mixing bpf2bpf calls and tail calls on RV64, add signed
   operations and 32-bit atomics to the RV32 JIT, and add timed may_goto
   support (Pu Lehui, Kuan-Wei Chiu, Feng Jiang)
 
 - Fix a use-after-free on mm_struct in bpf_find_vma() for foreign tasks
   and an mmap_lock leak in the irq_work path (Sanghyun Park)
 
 - Populate mmap-able BPF array map memory lazily which makes mmap() O(1)
   instead of proportional to the map size (Song Liu)
 
 - Introduce a jit_required flag and reject programs with inlined
   helpers when no JIT is available, where the interpreter would
   otherwise jump into an invalid address (Tiezhu Yang)
 
 - Fix the x86 JIT per-CPU address resolution into an extended register
   where the REX prefix dropped the high destination register bit
   (Vineet Gupta)
 
 - Reject MEM_ALLOC BTF accesses past object bounds, arena frees below
   the arena base, and mixed arena and ordinary atomic paths
   (Yiyang Chen)
 
 - Fix the trampoline handling of 128-bit arguments and of return values
   larger than 8 bytes (Yonghong Song)
 
 - Ensure that any fault prone load is rewritten with exception table
   handling, and fix the arena load-acquire and atomic fetch handling
   in the x86, arm64, riscv and s390 JITs (Daniel Borkmann)
 
 - Many more fixes and cleanups across the verifier, arena, trampolines,
   sockmap, cgroup, ring buffer, x86/arm64/riscv/s390 JITs, libbpf,
   bpftool, resolve_btfids and selftests.

     protection (Ning Ding)

   - Support mixing bpf2bpf calls and tail calls on RV64, add signed
     operations and 32-bit atomics to the RV32 JIT, and add timed
     may_goto support (Pu Lehui, Kuan-Wei Chiu, Feng Jiang)

   - Fix a use-after-free on mm_struct in bpf_find_vma() for foreign
     tasks and an mmap_lock leak in the irq_work path (Sanghyun Park)

   - Populate mmap-able BPF array map memory lazily which makes mmap()
     O(1) instead of proportional to the map size (Song Liu)

   - Introduce a jit_required flag and reject programs with inlined
     helpers when no JIT is available, where the interpreter would
     otherwise jump into an invalid address (Tiezhu Yang)

   - Fix the x86 JIT per-CPU address resolution into an extended
     register where the REX prefix dropped the high destination register
     bit (Vineet Gupta)

   - Reject MEM_ALLOC BTF accesses past object bounds, arena frees below
     the arena base, and mixed arena and ordinary atomic paths (Yiyang
     Chen)

   - Fix the trampoline handling of 128-bit arguments and of return
     values larger than 8 bytes (Yonghong Song)

   - Ensure that any fault prone load is rewritten with exception table
     handling, and fix the arena load-acquire and atomic fetch handling
     in the x86, arm64, riscv and s390 JITs (Daniel Borkmann)

   - Many more fixes and cleanups across the verifier, arena,
     trampolines, sockmap, cgroup, ring buffer, x86/arm64/riscv/s390

Linus Torvalds
1d7443e4dc fscrypt updates for 7.3 
The main change this cycle is a significant simplification that's been
 overdue for a while now: standardizing on a single file contents
 encryption implementation in ext4 and f2fs, instead of having two.
 
 Specifically, the original filesystem-layer file contents encryption
 implementation is removed, and the blk-crypto implementation is now
 used unconditionally. blk-crypto delegates either to inline crypto
 hardware or to the CPU via blk-crypto-fallback. The latter is
 functionally equivalent to the original filesystem-layer code.
 
 The blk-crypto implementation already existed, but previously it was
 used only when the filesystem was mounted with "-o inlinecrypt". Now,
 "-o inlinecrypt" just selects whether inline crypto hardware is used.
 
 To allow maintaining that user control over hardware use, the
 blk-crypto API is extended with a new flag BLK_CRYPTO_CFG_ALLOW_HW.
 
 Overall, this removes quite a bit of redundant code from ext4, f2fs,
 and fs/crypto/. It should make things easier for ongoing filesystem
 efforts such as iomap support, large folios, and btrfs encryption.
 (btrfs had already been planning to use blk-crypto exclusively.)
 
 There are two small behavior changes of note:
 
 - Direct I/O now works on encrypted files even without
   "-o inlinecrypt", rather than falling back to buffered I/O. This is
   effectively a bugfix, though I'll continue to keep an eye out for
   any user that may have been depending on the buffered I/O fallback.
 
 - IV_INO_LBLK_32 policies are no longer supported in certain cases
   that didn't make sense and have no known uses.
 
 This has been in linux-next since July 22 with no reported issues.
 All encryption xfstests pass on ext4 and f2fs. As usual I've also been
 using it on a system with an fscrypt-encrypted home directory. Of
 course, the blk-crypto code paths also aren't new and were already
 being used on many systems via the inlinecrypt mount option.
 
 In addition to the main change described above, there are a few other
 cleanups such as using lock guards for mutexes, improving
 documentation, and removing a workaround for outdated gcc versions.

  used only when the filesystem was mounted with "-o inlinecrypt". Now,
  "-o inlinecrypt" just selects whether inline crypto hardware is used.

  To allow maintaining that user control over hardware use, the
  blk-crypto API is extended with a new flag BLK_CRYPTO_CFG_ALLOW_HW.

  Overall, this removes quite a bit of redundant code from ext4, f2fs,
  and fs/crypto/. It should make things easier for ongoing filesystem
  efforts such as iomap support, large folios, and btrfs encryption
  (btrfs had already been planning to use blk-crypto exclusively.)

  There are two small behavior changes of note:

   - Direct I/O now works on encrypted files even without "-o inlinecrypt",
     rather than falling back to buffered I/O. This is effectively a
     bugfix, though I'll continue to keep an eye out for any user that
     may have been depending on the buffered I/O fallback.

   - IV_INO_LBLK_32 policies are no longer supported in certain cases
     that didn't make sense and have no known uses.

  This has been in linux-next since July 22 with no reported issues. All
  encryption xfstests pass on ext4 and f2fs. As usual I've also been
  using it on a system with an fscrypt-encrypted home directory. Of
  course, the blk-crypto code paths also aren't new and were already
  being used on many systems via the inlinecrypt mount option.

  In addition to the main change described above, there are a few other
  cleanups such as using lock guards for mutexes, improving
  documentation, and removing a workaround for outdated gcc versions"

Merge tag 'vfs-7.3-rc1.failfs' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs

Pull failfs filesystem from Christian Brauner:
 "Add failfs and expose a FD_FAILFS_ROOT sentinel.

  This allows userspace to shed their filesystem state completely. A
  process with its root or working directory in failfs must anchor every
  path lookup at an explicit file descriptor. Absolute paths, absolute
  symlinks and AT_FDCWD-relative lookups simply fail.

  Failfs is the counterpart to nullfs. nullfs says adds a permanently
  empty, immutable directory whose lookups fail with ENOENT but which
  can be opened, read, stat'd and mounted upon. Failfs on the other hand
  fails every operation. The root cannot be opened at all. A single
  instance is mounted during early boot via kern_mount(), which makes it
  logically distinct from every mount namespace.

  This is accompanied by a new fchroot() system call which makes
  chrooting via a file descriptor a first class concept. It's possible
  to chroot into failfs as an unprivileged user provided the task has no
  new privileges set"

da199070bc bpf: Add BPF_F_ADJ_ROOM_DECAP_* flags for tunnel decapsulation 
Add new bpf_skb_adjust_room() decapsulation flags:

- BPF_F_ADJ_ROOM_DECAP_L4_GRE
- BPF_F_ADJ_ROOM_DECAP_L4_UDP
- BPF_F_ADJ_ROOM_DECAP_IPXIP4
- BPF_F_ADJ_ROOM_DECAP_IPXIP6

These flags let BPF programs describe which tunnel layer is being
removed, so later changes can update tunnel-related GSO state
accordingly during decapsulation.

This patch only introduces the UAPI flag definitions and helper
documentation.

b27a8560ee net: devmem: allow rx-page-size > PAGE_SIZE per dmabuf binding 
Every devmem dmabuf binding today hands the page_pool PAGE_SIZE niovs.
This caps a single RX descriptor at PAGE_SIZE, burning CPU on buffer
churn for large flows.

Add a bind-time netlink attribute, NETDEV_A_DMABUF_RX_PAGE_SIZE, that
lets userspace request a larger niov size. The value must be a power of
two >= PAGE_SIZE.

The TX path is changed to always pass PAGE_SIZE.

Measurements:
Setup: kperf in devmem RX/TX cuda mode, 4 flows, 64 MB messages, 60s,
dctcp, num-rx-queues=4, dmabuf-rx/tx-size-mb=2048, 10 runs per niov
size, mlx5.

485e38995c tun/tap: add IFF_BACKPRESSURE flag 
Add the IFF_BACKPRESSURE flag to the UAPI header and to its tools/ copy.
The flag has no effect yet, it is the opt-in switch for the qdisc
backpressure logic added by the following patches.

It is added to TUN_FEATURES only in the last patch of the series, once the
implementation is complete. Until then TUNSETIFF silently masks it off, as
it does for any flag outside TUN_FEATURES.

Keeping the flag and its users in separate patches would either leave a
window where backpressure is unconditional, or make the opt-in a later
add-on. Adding the flag first lets every following patch be a no-op
unless it is set.

3628215f7f selftests/mm: add userfaultfd RWP tests 
Coverage for UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_RWP and UFFDIO_RWPROTECT:

  rwp-async          async mode — touch pages, verify permissions are
                     auto-restored without a message
  rwp-sync           sync mode — access blocks, handler resolves via
                     UFFDIO_RWPROTECT
  rwp-pagemap        PAGEMAP_SCAN reports still-cold pages via
                     inverted PAGE_IS_ACCESSED
  rwp-mprotect       RWP survives mprotect(PROT_NONE) ->
                     mprotect(PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE) round-trip
  rwp-gup            GUP walks through a protnone RWP PTE (pipe
                     write/read drives the GUP path)
  rwp-async-toggle   UFFDIO_SET_MODE flips between sync and async
                     without re-registering
  rwp-close          closing the uffd restores page permissions
  rwp-fork           RWP survives fork() with EVENT_FORK; child's
                     PTEs keep the uffd bit
  rwp-fork-pin       RWP survives fork() on an RO-longterm-pinned
                     anon page (forces copy_present_page()); child
                     read auto-resolves and clears the bit, proving
                     PAGE_NONE was in place
  rwp-wp-exclusive   register with MODE_WP|MODE_RWP returns -EINVAL

All tests run against anon, shmem, shmem-private, hugetlb, and
hugetlb-private memory, except rwp-fork-pin which is anon-only —
copy_present_page() is the private-anon pinned-exclusive fork path.

Snapshot the RWP additions into tools/include/uapi/linux/userfaultfd.h so
the selftest builds without requiring "make headers" first, matching the
mechanism established by commit 580ea358af ("selftests/mm: fix
additional build errors for selftests").

3389648819 mm/pagemap: add PAGE_IS_ACCESSED for RWP tracking 
PAGEMAP_SCAN already reports PAGE_IS_WRITTEN from the inverted uffd PTE
bit, targeting the UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT workflow.  UFFDIO_RWPROTECT reuses
the same PTE bit as a marker for read-write protection, but "has been
written" and "has been accessed" are distinct semantic signals — they
happen to share one PTE bit today only because the two implementations
share infrastructure.

Give RWP its own pagemap category so the UAPI does not conflate them:

  PAGE_IS_WRITTEN   reported on VM_UFFD_WP VMAs,  !pte_uffd(pte)
  PAGE_IS_ACCESSED  reported on VM_UFFD_RWP VMAs, !pte_uffd(pte)

Both still read the same PTE bit today, but each is scoped to the VMA
whose registered mode makes the bit meaningful.  If a future
implementation moves RWP to a separate PTE bit, only PAGE_IS_ACCESSED
switches over.

This is a UAPI narrowing.  Outside VM_UFFD_WP VMAs the uffd bit is always
clear, so PAGEMAP_SCAN used to flag PAGE_IS_WRITTEN on every present PTE
there — a meaningless duplicate of PAGE_IS_PRESENT.  Now PAGE_IS_WRITTEN
fires only inside VM_UFFD_WP VMAs.

pagemap_hugetlb_category() now takes the vma like its PTE/PMD peers.

8700a4761b tools/compiler: match glibc 2.42 definition of __attribute_const__ 
glibc 2.42 added __attribute_const__ to sys/cdefs.h:

    # define __attribute_const__ __attribute__ ((__const__))

GCC 15 warns when a macro is redefined to a different replacement list
(-Wbuiltin-macro-redefined). Since host tool Makefiles (resolve_btfids,
objtool) pass -Werror, this conflict becomes fatal.

The warning is suppressed on standard native builds because GCC treats
/usr/include as a system header path (-isystem), and macro-redefinition
warnings from system headers are silently suppressed by GCC. It fires
when glibc headers are on a regular include path (-I) instead, which
is the case in cross-compilation setups such as NixOS, where the
sysroot's glibc is passed explicitly via -I rather than -isystem.

Per (C11 6.10.3), identical replacement lists are accepted silently.
Match the glibc definition exactly, including the space before "((", so
the redefinition is accepted without warning regardless of whether
glibc headers are treated as system or non-system includes.

6cb423c96e static_call / jump_label: Replace __ASSEMBLY__ with __ASSEMBLER__ in headers 
While the GCC and Clang compilers already define __ASSEMBLER__
automatically when compiling assembly code, __ASSEMBLY__ is a
macro that only gets defined by the Makefiles in the kernel.
This can be very confusing when switching between userspace
and kernelspace coding, or when dealing with uapi headers that
rather should use __ASSEMBLER__ instead. So let's standardize now
on the __ASSEMBLER__ macro that is provided by the compilers.

This is a completely mechanical patch (done with a simple "sed -i"
statement).
