netfs: Fix unbuffered/DIO write partial transfer error return
Fix unbuffered/DIO write to return the amount of data transferred in
preference to an error if a partial transfer has been achieved, and to
prefer an error stashed in the request over the one returned by
netfs_unbuffered_write() (likely -EINTR or -ERESTARTSYS).

netfs: Fix uninitialized return value in netfs_unbuffered_write()
If preparation of the first subrequest fails,
netfs_unbuffered_write() exits its loop before ret is initialized. The
empty-iterator check can do the same.

For synchronous writes, netfs_unbuffered_write_iter_locked() may then
return an unrelated error instead of wreq->error. This is reachable
through CIFS if cifs_prepare_write() fails to reopen the file or obtain
credits.

Initialize ret to 0 so the caller returns wreq->error if no data was
written, or the number of bytes already written otherwise.

Found with Clang's -Wconditional-uninitialized.

adfs: fix memory leak in sb->s_fs_info
Syzbot reported a memory leak in adfs during the mount process. The issue
arises because the ownership of the allocated (struct adfs_sb_info) is
transferred from the filesystem context to the superblock via sget_fc().
This function sets fc->s_fs_info to NULL after the transfer.

The ADFS filesystem previously used the default kill_block_super for
superblock destruction. This helper performs generic cleanup but does not
free the private sb->s_fs_info data. Since fc->s_fs_info is set to
NULL during the transfer, the standard context cleanup (adfs_free_fc)
also skips freeing this memory. As a result, if the superblock is
destroyed, the allocated struct adfs_sb_info is leaked.

Fix this by implementing a custom .kill_sb callback (adfs_kill_sb)
that explicitly frees sb->s_fs_info before invoking the generic
kill_block_super.

fs: don't return -EINVAL for successful nested thaw
Commit 7366f8b6fc ("fs: handle freezing from multiple devices")
replaced the freeze_holders bitmask with per-holder counters to allow
nested freezes. In the bitmask version, a thaw that released a shared
hold while another holder remained returned 0. Since the rework,
thaw_super_locked() drops the freeze reference via freeze_dec() but
then returns -EINVAL when other freezers remain, misinforming the
caller: the thaw did succeed, the superblock just stays frozen for the
remaining holders.

This breaks bdev-initiated freezing. When a filesystem is frozen with
FIFREEZE and additionally frozen via bdev_freeze() -- which nests by
design, see fs_bdev_freeze() -- the subsequent bdev_thaw() receives
-EINVAL from the holder op although its freeze reference was dropped,
and therefore keeps bd_fsfreeze_count elevated. Then device-mapper's
unlock_fs() ignores bdev_thaw()'s return value, so nothing rebalances
the count. After the user's FITHAW and umount, the block device can
never be mounted again:

    dm-1: Can't mount, blockdev is frozen

There is no way for userspace to drop the leaked count; only
destroying the block device (or a reboot) recovers the device.

Reproducer (any kernel since v6.8):

    dmsetup create dut --table "0 $(blockdev --getsz "$DEV") linear $DEV 0"
    mkfs.ext4 /dev/mapper/dut
    mount /dev/mapper/dut /mnt
    fsfreeze --freeze /mnt      # freeze_ucount == 1
    dmsetup suspend dut         # bd_fsfreeze_count == 1, ucount == 2
    dmsetup resume dut          # ucount 2 -> 1, but thaw_super()
                                # returns -EINVAL, so bdev_thaw()
                                # keeps bd_fsfreeze_count at 1
    fsfreeze --unfreeze /mnt    # filesystem thaws fine
    umount /mnt
    mount /dev/mapper/dut /mnt  # EBUSY, forever

The same happens with fsfreeze held across an LVM snapshot of the
origin volume.

fs_bdev_thaw()'s documentation already describes the intended
semantics: "If this function returns zero it doesn't mean that the
filesystem is unfrozen as it may have been frozen multiple times".
Restore them by returning 0 when a nested thaw drops its hold while
other freezers remain. Thawing without holding a freeze still fails
with -EINVAL as may_unfreeze() rejects that case before the reference
count is touched.

ufs: do not treat unreadable directory blocks as empty
ufs_empty_dir() scans every directory block to decide whether a
directory is empty before rmdir() removes it. When ufs_get_folio()
cannot read or validate a block it returns an error pointer, and the
loop currently skips that block with continue and keeps scanning the
remaining blocks.

If none of the readable blocks hold an entry, the function returns 1
and the caller unlinks the directory. A directory whose contents live
in a block that cannot be read, for example because of an I/O error or
corrupted directory metadata, is therefore seen as empty and removed,
losing the entries it still holds.

Follow the ext2 behaviour and treat an unreadable block as a reason to
consider the directory not empty, so rmdir() fails instead of
discarding data that could not be verified.

Merge patch series "ufs: harden the mount path against malformed images"
Ali Ahmet Memis <ali@iusegentoo.com> says:

Two robustness fixes for the ufs mount path, both reachable by mounting
a crafted UFS image.

Patch 1 reorders ufs_fill_super() so the root dentry is created after the
cylinder group metadata is loaded. Today a failure while reading the
cylinder groups drops UFS_SB(sb) but leaves s_root installed, so the
generic teardown oopses on a NULL pointer in ufs_sync_fs() and the
put_super operation.

Patch 2 validates the cylinder group index and the rotor positions in
ufs_read_cylinder() before they are cached. Unchecked, c_cgx indexes the
cylinder summary array (a 32 bit write outside s_csp), and the rotors
become bitmap scan offsets that can wrap an unsigned length and walk past
the cylinder group buffers during an ordinary allocation.

ufs: validate cylinder group metadata before caching it
ufs_read_cylinder() copies the cylinder group index and the rotor
positions straight from the on-disk group and caches them without any
check:

	ucpi->c_cgx    = fs32_to_cpu(sb, ucg->cg_cgx);
	ucpi->c_rotor  = fs32_to_cpu(sb, ucg->cg_rotor);
	ucpi->c_frotor = fs32_to_cpu(sb, ucg->cg_frotor);
	ucpi->c_irotor = fs32_to_cpu(sb, ucg->cg_irotor);

They are then used as indices during allocation and free:

  - c_cgx indexes the cylinder summary array as
    UFS_SB(sb)->fs_cs(ucpi->c_cgx), so a value past s_ncg writes a 32
    bit count outside the s_csp allocation.

  - c_frotor becomes a bitmap scan start, start = c_frotor >> 3, and
    then length = ((s_fpg + 7) >> 3) - start. A start beyond the block
    bitmap wraps the unsigned length to a huge value, so ubh_scanc()
    walks far past the cylinder group buffers. c_irotor drives the
    inode bitmap the same way.

A crafted image can set any of these freely, turning an ordinary
allocation into an out of bounds access.

Reject a cylinder group whose recorded index does not match the group
being read, or whose rotors fall outside the group, before the metadata
is cached. Valid filesystems keep cg_cgx equal to the group number and
the rotors within the group, so only malformed images are rejected.

ufs: create the root dentry after loading cylinder metadata
ufs_fill_super() installed sb->s_root before it loaded the cylinder
group structures for a writable mount:

	sb->s_root = d_make_root(inode);
	...
	if (!sb_rdonly(sb))
		if (!ufs_read_cylinder_structures(sb))
			goto failed;

When ufs_read_cylinder_structures() failed, the error path freed the
in-core superblock information and set sb->s_fs_info to NULL while
sb->s_root stayed installed. get_tree_bdev() then reached
deactivate_locked_super(), and because s_root was present,
generic_shutdown_super() called sync_filesystem() and the put_super
operation. Both dereference UFS_SB(sb), which is now NULL, so a mount
that fails only while reading the cylinder groups oopses during
teardown. A crafted image whose first cylinder group cannot be read
reaches this path.

Load the cylinder group metadata first and create the root dentry last,
so the superblock is published to the VFS only once it is fully set up.
ufs_setup_cstotal() and ufs_read_cylinder_structures() take only the
super_block and do not use the root inode, so the reordering is safe.

nsfs: keep namespace tree fields stable until after RCU grace period
struct ns_common overlays struct ns_tree with the rcu_head used by kfree_rcu().
That lets the deferred-free machinery overwrite ns_id and __ns_ref_active as
soon as a namespace is queued for freeing, even though nsfs tree walkers may
still read those fields under RCU after ns_tree_remove(). KASAN reports slab
UAF.

Keep the tree state and deferred-free callback storage separate. Namespace tree
readers can then continue to validate and take references until the grace
period has elapsed.

ext4: Avoid entering writeback paths during fastcommit replay
Fastcommit replay effectively happens in nojournal mode. This results in
ext4_mark_iloc_dirty() setting I_METADATA_WRITEBACK flag and as a result
we end up entering filesystem writeback functions. However during
fastcommit replay s_writepages_rwsem isn't initialized yet and hence we
crash.

Fix the problem by avoiding setting I_METADATA_WRITEBACK during
fastcommit replay. Journal replay flushes the whole block device after
replay anyway so all metadata is properly persisted and replay is faster
this way as a bonus.

818bebeb63 drm/xe: Don't hand out the flat CCS storage as usable VRAM
get_flat_ccs_offset() reads the base of the flat CCS storage from the
hardware, scales it by the number of enabled L3 nodes, and rounds the
result up to 128K.  Everything below that offset is then handed to the
VRAM allocator as usable memory.

Rounding a limit that means "usable memory ends here" upwards publishes
whatever lies between the real base and the rounded one as free memory,
and that memory belongs to the compression hardware.  The scaled value
has no reason to be 128K aligned, and on a Battlemage G21 with 16 GiB it
is not:

	flat CCS base: raw 0x3fafff800, rounded 0x3fb000000

so the last 2 KiB of page 0x3fafff000 is CCS storage, in the allocator's
pool.  Whatever is allocated there gets that tail overwritten by the
compression hardware, which needs no page-table entry, no buffer object
and no GPU submission to do it, and does it before userspace exists.

On this machine a Mesa VM's level-3 page table landed on that page on
every cold boot.  It lost the entry covering the compositor's
batch-buffer heap, so the compositor's first submission faulted fetching
its batch and gdm restarted it forever: a black screen on an otherwise
working machine.  Restarting gdm cleared it because the next VM's page
tables were allocated somewhere else.

Round down instead, to the page size the allocator works in.  On this
machine that excludes exactly one page.

Reading the reserved page afterwards shows what had been writing it:

	[369] 0xcccc000000000000
	[371] 0xcc77000000000000
	[373] 0xcccc000000000000
	[375] 0xcc77000000000000

compression metadata, two bytes per sixteen, sitting where the driver
used to hand out memory.

The assertion that should have caught this compares the offset against
GSMBASE - ccs_size for equality.  That value is 128K aligned, so it
agrees with the rounded-up offset precisely when the base is not
aligned - the check cannot fail in the case it exists to catch, and is
compiled out unless CONFIG_DRM_XE_DEBUG is set.  Replace it with one
that can fail: CCS storage must not run into GSM.

[ And this was a debug session from hell, enormously helped by an AI
  doing much of the grunt-work.

  I'd like to call it my tireless helper, but the AI several times
  stated flat out that this was impossible and unsolvable and that we
  should just write a report about it.

  I suspect those things have been trained by people who may not be
  quite as stubborn as I am.

  But while the AI was ready to give up several times, it did keep
  adding debug code and analyzing it faithfully when I pushed. So credit
  where credit is due and I let the AI write the commit message above.

  This is basically a one-liner fixing a bogus "round_up()" to a
  "round_down()", but there were 24 patches adding more and more debug
  information to this, and 18 kernel boot to finally narrow it down to
  this.   - Linus ]

   (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.

   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.

a625b2a387 VFIO updates for v7.3-rc1
- Add nv_falcon vfio selftest driver.  The Falcon is a general-purpose
    microcontroller embedded within NVIDIA GPUs, presenting a relatively
    simple DMA programming interface.  This adds another selftest target
    for vfio-pci with real DMA transfers. (Rubin Du, Alex Williamson)
 
  - Add allocation assertion helpers to vfio selftests and use them to
    avoid variable length arrays and the compiler errors they generate.
    (Alex Mastro)
 
  - Fix use-after-free hazard where an init path error in MSI support
    leaves a stray pointer that can later be reused or double-freed.
    (Xiang Mei)
 
  - Fix previous refactor of PCI BAR mappings to honor non_mappable_bars
    flag, which otherwise generates a warning when trying to pci_iomap()
    a 256TiB BAR on ISM devices on s390. (Farhan Ali)
 
  - Add igb vfio selftest driver.  Like nv_falcon, this provides another
    target for DMA testing with vfio selftests, but importantly this
    driver supports both physical 82576 NICs and the emulation model in
    QEMU.  This therefore enables a vfio selftest vector with no physical
    hardware requirements. (Josh Hilke, Alex Williamson)
 
  - Mark selftest fixture objects __maybe_unused to accommodate builds
    with clang -Wunused-but-set-global. (David Matlack)
 
  - Add error recovery for vfio-pci devices on s390x.  This expands
    devices which expose the existing error eventfd and introduces a
    device feature for reporting firmware defined error state
    information to the user, allowing recovery through hypervisor
    channels. (Farhan Ali)

Pull CXL updates from Dave Jiang:
 "This includes the remaining patches to complete the basic support for
  CXL type2 (accelerators) drivers by the CXL core. A set of unit
  testing support to catch regressions for the CXL core type2 exported
  functions has also been added. The actual CXL type 2 driver support
  for the AMD Solarflare NIC driver has been picked up by net-dev.

  A set of preparatory patches has been picked up from the CXL port
  error handling series in order to reduce the number of patches in that
  series for review. The rest of that series is getting close to be
  merged but was not ready for the 7.3 merge window.

  There are also a number of misc patches and a large number of bug
  fixes against pre-existing issues flagged by sashiko reviews as
  contributors post new patches on the mailing list. We will continue to
  work through the sashiko raised issues as they show up."

073e62fd33 RISC-V updates for v7.3
- Add initial definitions and discovery for the Smcsrind, Sscsrind,
   Smcntrpmf, Ssccfg, Smcdeleg, Zicclsm, Ziccamoa, Ziccif, Ziccrse,
   Za64rs, and Ssqosid RISC-V ISA extensions
 
 - Improve the RISC-V update_mmu_cache_range() implementation by using
   flush-by-ASID, enabling performance improvements on
   microarchitectures that support related optimizations; and by taking
   advantage of the Svinval RISC-V ISA extension on microarchitectures
   that support it
 
 - Shrink CFI shadow stack allocation further (to 512MB) to save
   virtual address space (and physical memory on systems with strict
   overcommit policies)
 
 - Add initial CPU context switch support for QoS tagging (Ssqosid)
 
 - Change our vector misaligned access speed test code to be
   synchronous, avoiding a bunch of bugs related to unnecessary
   asynchronicity
 
 - Enable ARCH_HAS_ACPI_TABLE_UPGRADE for RISC-V to help with ACPI
   table debugging (similar to ARM64 and x86)
 
 - Extract vDSO section offsets at build time, rather than run time, to
   avoid the boot time overhead
 
 - Use assembler directives to control the use of instructions from the
   RISC-V ISA extensions Zacas and Zabha, rather than compiler -march
   flags that could affect the whole kernel (similar to ARM64)
 
 - Add a kselftest for kprobes support for the c.jal instruction on
   RISC-V
 
 - When UEFI runtime services are available, use them to restart and
   power off
 
 - Fix ARCH_HAS_ACPI_TABLE_UPGRADE for RISC-V by adding a missing
   include file to the ACPI code
 
 - Move contiguous DMA memory reservation later in the boot, to ensure
   that the correct global and per-node pools are allocated when
   CONFIG_CMA_SIZE_PERNUMA is enabled
 
 - Disallow probes on breakpoint handlers to avoid recursing
   indefinitely into do_trap_break()
 
 - Patch the compat vDSO during runtime alternatives processing, not
   only the standard vDSO
 
 - Remove some leftover XIP support elements missed by commit
   9b3a2be848 ("riscv: Remove support for XIP kernel")
 
 - Fix broadcast timer switching in ACPI LPI power states by
   implementing a RISC-V version of arch_get_idle_state_flags()
 
 - Miscellaneous fixes, including: vDSO makefile simplification;
   marking our default_power_off() as __noreturn; error path fixes in
   the PMU SBI perf driver; RISC-V extension capitalization
   consistency; the use of BIT() macros in one of our include files;
   and some documentation fixes

Pull block updates from Jens Axboe:

 - NVMe updates via Keith:
     - Enable Clang context analysis for the nvme host driver, adding
       context annotations across core, fabrics, rdma, tcp and pci
     - nvmet reservation state exposed through a new namespace-level
       debugfs directory, plus ABI documentation for the host sysfs and
       target configfs interfaces
     - nvme-tcp host memory disclosure fixes on the read path: reject a
       read that transferred too few bytes, don't accept C2HData based
       on blk_rq_payload_bytes() alone, and fix the R2T case for a read
       command
     - Parallelize nvme-rdma I/O queue allocation and startup (Surabhi)
     - Apple nvme fixes and quirks: page aligned admin queue buffers,
       destroy the admin queue on removal, and various DMA/NVMMU
       correctness fixes
     - A large pile of nvmet and host fixes for out-of-bounds reads,
       refcount/resource leaks, and NULL derefs across auth, zns,
       passthru, pci-epf, rdma and configfs
     - Various other fixes and cleanups

 - MD updates via Yu Kuai:
     - llbitmap reshape support, the large series wiring exact bitmap
       mapping and reshape lifecycle through raid5 and raid10, growing
       the page cache in place, and remapping checkpointed bits as
       reshape progresses
     - raid5 fixes for lockless max_nr_stripes and recovery_offset
       accesses, a reshape deadlock with more failed devices than max
       degraded, and bitmap batch counter consistency
     - Atomic write handling for raid1/raid10, and removal of the
       REQ_NOWAIT support from raid1/10/456
     - raid5-ppl use-after-free fix in ppl_do_flush()
     - A batch of smaller fixes across md core and the bitmap code

 - s390/dasd ESE full-track write support and the surrounding
   infrastructure, plus enabling CONTEXT_ANALYSIS for s390/block

 "On top of the usual cleanups and fixes, the bigger items in here are:

   - zcrx work, most of it centered around adding dynamic area
     provisioning, plus a bunch of prep and cleanups leading up to it:
     scale refilling with large pages, coalesce same-niov RQEs on
     refill, separate the RQ head/tail cache lines and cache the RQ
     tail, and rework the area creation locking.

   - Fix the futex inflight accounting so that only private futex waits
     are marked inflight, and don't mark wake requests as inflight at
     all.

   - Drop the custom iov copy in the buffer select prep and msg header
     copy paths, using the generic helpers instead.

   - Fix a folio size overflow in io_vec_fill_bvec(), and account the
     pages a compound region really uses in the memmap path.

   - Fix an iovec leak in uring_cmd when the async cmd isn't recycled,

Pull btrfs updates from David Sterba:
 "This is the summer edition of btrfs changes, smaller than usual. Yet,
  there are performance improvements in various areas or for specific
  workloads and some notable changes like removing space cache v1 code
  or mount option reduction.

  User visible changes:

   - free space v1 disabled by default; the v2 (free space tree) is mkfs
     default since 5.15, filesystems with v1 still work but could be
     slightly slower due to lack of block group caching

   - mount option 'rescue=usebackuproot' requires read-only mount, it's
     too risky to allow writable mount

   - remove standalone mount option 'usebackuproot', deprecated in 5.9

   - preserve constraints of NODATASUM and NODATACOW when chattr and
     mount options may change the attributes

   - remove arbitrary limitation of 4KiB for page size when allowing
     block sizes smaller than page

   - print messages when pinned block groups affect swap activation

  Performance improvements:

   - use iomap bounce buffer for direct io instead of a fall back to
     buffered io; past correctness vs speed trade-offs dropped
     performance to ~50% of theoretical maximum, now it's ~95%,
     effectively doubled

   - replace xarray with local LRU list for tracking inhibited
     extent buffers, restored performance to pre-inhibition state
     (relatively ~3x)

   - remove unnecessary 1 jiffy delay in "non-SSD" mode with multiple
     logging tasks, decrease latency, throughput increased ~5x on sample
     workload

   - skip hole detection during full fsync for files without holes
     and lots of extents, reduce run time ~5x on sample workload
     (microsecond ranges)

   - reduce locking around extent readahead so it does not slow down
     other tasks using an overlapping range

   - enhance extent buffer allocation modes to allow NOWAIT semantics
     in some cases

  Notable fixes:

   - write-protect folios during writeback, prevent concurrent mmap
     and compress/checksumming/etc undesired interactions

   - in zoned mode, handle transient overcommit full instead of going
     read-only

   - fix possible deadlock between defragmentation and delayed
     allocation reservations

   - handle remaining iputs at umount time

   - fix lockdep warning between device scan locking and log mutex

   - add workaround for degenerate RAID56 device count modes (2 and 3)
     not supported by the parity calculation library

   - restore check that subvolume is not read-only when changing ACLs

   - retry reading verity data colliding with up-to-date status changes

  Core:

   - simplify raid56 stripe handling by using contiguous virtual
     allocations

   - in zoned mode, fix various metadata write issues in writeback or
     unmount

   - space reservation fixes

   - remove unused data structure members

   - more auto-freeing conversions

   - error pointer values are printed using %pe format"

 directory delegations. The server used to recall a delegation as
 soon as the directory changed. NFSD now watches delegated
 directories through fsnotify and reports adds, removes, renames,
 and directory attribute changes, carrying the filehandle and
 attributes of the affected entry, so clients can keep their
 caches. Some of the NOTIFY4 flags come from RFC 8881bis.
 
 Jeff Layton also continued the netlink work that started in v7.2.
 A new server-stats-get operation reports what /proc/net/rpc/nfsd
 publishes, plus NFSv4 callback counts, and SUNRPC now keeps its
 per-procedure call counts per network namespace, so a container
 sees its own numbers. nfsstat reads all of this over netlink, with
 a procfs fallback for older kernels.
 
 SUNRPC's service thread pool mode selection is gone. Pernode is
 the right choice on any host we run today, so the auto, global,
 and percpu modes have been removed. A single-node host still gets
 one pool. A multi-NUMA host now gets a pool per node.
 sunrpc.pool_mode accepts the old names but no longer selects
 anything.
 
 The rest is bug fixes, clean-ups, and small optimizations: an
 async COPY offload rework from Jeff Layton, more use-after-free
 fixes in the NFSv4 state revocation paths, percpu counter
 contention removed from the reply cache and IO accounting, and a
 long list of hardening fixes from Chris Mason. Sincere thanks to
 all contributors, reviewers, testers, and bug reporters who
 participated in the v7.3 NFSD development cycle.

11260c335e sched_ext: Changes for v7.3
This depends on the arena argument support in the BPF tree and should be
 pulled after the scheduler core and BPF pulls. The patches based on bpf-next
 were kept on a separate branch which was merged into for-7.3 just now. The
 same merged result was in linux-next for several days.
 
 Most of this cycle completes the enqueue-path support for hierarchical
 sub-scheduling, which makes sub-scheduler support feature complete: a root
 BPF scheduler can now hand a cgroup subtree over to a nested sub-scheduler
 together with revocable CPU grants, and the sub-scheduler owns all
 scheduling decisions for its tasks on those CPUs.
 
 Development volume was high and a number of changes plugging holes in the
 new support landed late in the cycle. Also included are core scheduling
 fixes that were completed too late for the v7.2 release and are routed
 through this pull request.
 
 - Sub-scheduler CPU delegation:
 
   - Parent schedulers now grant and revoke per-CPU capabilities (enqueueing,
     preemption, CPU frequency control) on their children, enforced on every
     path a scheduler can reach a CPU through. Previously only dispatching
     could be delegated; this lets sub-schedulers fully schedule their CPUs.
 
   - Rescue execution: a task whose scheduler doesn't have access to the CPUs
     the task needs to run on starved until the watchdog ejected the whole
     scheduler. The kernel now runs such tasks directly on a small bandwidth
     budget, turning a scheduler-killing failure into bounded degradation.
 
   - Cgroup integration: tasks migrating across a sub-scheduler boundary
     weren't re-homed to the new owner, causing wrong-scheduler scheduling
     and a use-after-free. Sub-schedulers now take over their cgroup subtree
     and receive its cgroup callbacks.
 
   - Arena objects now cross the kernel/BPF boundary as typed pointer
     arguments, translated transparently by the BPF tree's new arena argument
     support, replacing untyped arguments with manual translation.
 
   - scx_qmap now demonstrates full hierarchical sub-scheduling.
 
 - Robustness improvements: the abort path is now NMI-safe, fixing deadlocks
   when errors are raised from NMI context and making hardlockup recovery
   direct. Reenqueue loops that could monopolize a CPU ahead of the watchdog
   now eject the offending scheduler, and stalls are blamed on the scheduler
   actually responsible.
 
 - Hardening: BPF-writable arena memory is validated before kernel use, and
   task slice and vtime writes got explicit synchronization rules, closing
   corruption vectors open to buggy or malicious schedulers.
 
 - Core scheduling: sched_ext dispatching can drop the rq lock inside the
   core-wide pick, which let interleaving selections corrupt each other's
   state and hard-hang the machine. The selection now restarts when the lock
   was released. The task ordering callback was also invoked with its
   arguments swapped, and the default ordering is updated to work across
   sub-scheduler boundaries. The fixes are marked for stable.
 
 - Other fixes headed for stable: a task init leak on fork failure during
   enable, tooling compat macros that silently failed to detect newer
   kernels, and a crash on reenqueueing against a destroyed dispatch queue.
 
 - Tooling: scx_pair moves off deprecated callbacks, and the deprecated
   scx_bpf_cpu_rq() kfunc is removed.

40d8c81577 cgroup: Changes for v7.3
- cpuset:
 
   - Attach path bug fixes: migrations spanning multiple source or
     destination cpusets were mishandled, most visibly leaving thread
     affinities stale when the controller is disabled in a threaded subtree.
     Configuration writes could also race an in-flight attach and apply stale
     state, and the deadline task count could get corrupted by concurrent
     updates, skewing SCHED_DEADLINE admission decisions.
 
   - Memory binding bug fixes: which node masks get applied differed between
     the binding update paths, and tasks cloned with CLONE_INTO_CGROUP
     skipped rebinding entirely. Rebinding also now runs once per process
     instead of repeating for every thread sharing the mm.
 
   - Overhead removals with no behavior change: CPU hotplug iterated tasks of
     cpusets that just inherit the parent's effective masks, and the
     slab-spreading task flag was still being maintained although the SLAB
     allocator that consumed it is long gone.
 
 - Data-race annotations for benign races so that KCSAN reports stay
   meaningful, selftest coverage for the fixes above along with flakiness and
   portability fixes, and documentation corrections.

91ec203513 Networking changes for 7.3.
Core & protocols
 ----------------
 
  - A few steps lowering rtnl_lock dependence:
    - per-netns netdev unregistration for select SW drivers
      (e.g. veth, ipvlan, tunnels)
    - rtnl_lock-less FIB rule changes (RTM_NEWRULE and RTM_DELRULE)
    - prepare software drivers and TC qdiscs for rtnl_lock-less GET
 
  - Support BIG TCP (>64kB TSO) in UDP tunnels (vxlan, geneve).
 
  - Support buffers larger than PAGE_SIZE in devmem zero-copy API.
 
  - Improve MPTCP handling of extreme memory pressure handling,
    when out-of-order queue had to be pruned.
 
  - Report the per-group user count via RTM_GETMULTICAST.
 
  - Expose the route deletion reason in RTM_DELROUTE.
 
  - Add a SO_RIGHTS_NOTRUNC option to UNIX sockets to enable more useful
    handling of LSM denials when receiving SCM_RIGHTS messages: instead
    of truncating the message at the first blocked fd, keep every fd slot
    and store the LSM errno in the blocked slot.
 
  - IPv6 Segment Routing - support looking up the post-encap SID
    (address) in a different/specified routing table.
 
  - Support PRP RedBox (interlink) creation.
 
  - Support per-nexthop UDP dst port in VXLAN.
 
  - Continue converting getsockopt callbacks in a number of protocols
    to iov_iter.

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...

  Core & protocols:

   - A few steps lowering rtnl_lock dependence:
      - per-netns netdev unregistration for select SW drivers (e.g.
        veth, ipvlan, tunnels)
      - rtnl_lock-less FIB rule changes (RTM_NEWRULE and RTM_DELRULE)
      - prepare software drivers and TC qdiscs for rtnl_lock-less GET

   - Support BIG TCP (>64kB TSO) in UDP tunnels (vxlan, geneve)

   - Support buffers larger than PAGE_SIZE in devmem zero-copy API

   - Improve MPTCP handling of extreme memory pressure handling, when
     out-of-order queue had to be pruned

   - Report the per-group user count via RTM_GETMULTICAST

   - Expose the route deletion reason in RTM_DELROUTE

   - Add a SO_RIGHTS_NOTRUNC option to UNIX sockets to enable more
     useful handling of LSM denials when receiving SCM_RIGHTS messages:
     instead of truncating the message at the first blocked fd, keep
     every fd slot and store the LSM errno in the blocked slot

     (address) in a different/specified routing table

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.

 - TPM initialization is sometimes delayed until deferred_probe_initcall

   Since ordering is not guaranteed within the same initcall level, IMA
   may initialize before the TPM and fall back to TPM-bypass mode. A new
   config option, CONFIG_IMA_INIT_LATE_SYNC, allows those building the
   kernel to defer IMA initialization to late_initcall_sync, accepting
   the integrity risk of missing early measurements in exchange for
   avoiding TPM-bypass mode.

 - The raw policy rules are now measured, as well as the complete
   policy, closing a gap in integrity measurement coverage

Merge tag 'selinux-pr-20260814' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pcmoore/selinux

Pull selinux updates from Paul Moore:

 - Convert a __get_free_page() call into a kmalloc() call

   We had some very old code that called out to __get_free_page() for
   allocating a pathname. There is no reason this couldn't be done with
   a call to kmalloc() so we've done the conversion and now there is one
   less __get_free_page() caller in the kernel.

 - Limit the number of retired/unknown DCCP netlink messages

   While DCCP is gone from the kernel, there are still userspace tools
   which try to talk to the kernel about DCCP sockets which were
   generating SELinux related log noise (unrecognized netlink message).
   This pull request both limits the log messages to just the first
   instance and also explains to the user that DCCP support has been
   removed.

 - Convert the SELinux strlcat() calls to seq_buf_XXX() calls

   As part of the effort to drop the strlcat() API from the kernel, the
   SELinux/IMA code was converted over to using seq_buf_XXX() calls.

 - Only calculate the SELinux IMA configuration string length once

   Previously each call to generate a SELinux configuration string for
   IMA would have to calculate the length of the string. While the
   contents of the string will likely change over the lifetime of the
   system, the length of the string will not. Calculate the string
   length once at boot and reuse the length value throughout the
   lifetime of the system.

 - Further validation of the SELinux policy at policy load time

   Perform additional sanity checks on the policy constraints and types.

 - Proper cleanup and error handling for selinuxfs init failures

   We were not properly cleaning up some state in the case where
   selinuxfs fails to initialize properly. It's somewhat of an academic
   exercise as a failure to initialize selinuxfs will cause the system
   to fail on boot, but it's arguably better to make sure we do things
   the proper way.

 - Various code cleanups

   Convert integer flags to boolean types and drop an uncessary goto
   from the SELinux code.

cb8a75eec0 ring-buffer updates for 7.3:
- Remove unneeded semicolon
 
   A macro ended with a semicolon that wasn't needed.
 
 - Fix freeing cpu_buffer extra subbuffer with order greater than zero
 
   When the cpu_buffer was being freed, its "free" page, was using
   free_page() to free it when it could be more than one page.
 
 - Hold the cpu_buffer lock when resizing the subbuffer
 
   The freeing of the "free" page of the cpu_buffer was done without locking.
   The order of the data was being saved and then the "free" page was set to
   NULL. But there is a race that the "free" page could have been updated
   between those two operations. Add locking around it to prevent the race.
 
 - Save the order of the data along with the data in the free page
 
   The cpu_buffer would store just the data portion of the subbuffer page in
   its descriptor. But it did not store the order of the data pages. The order
   was being saved in the global buffer descriptor. But this leads to races.
 
   Have the cpu_buffer save the subbuf data along with its metadata (which
   includes the order of the page) to make sure when it frees it, it frees
   the correct order along with it.
 
 - Remove the subbuf_size and use the order directly when needed
 
   Having a size field for the size of the subbufer along with its order
   allowed for races to have them get out of sync. Remove the subbuf_size and
   use the order from the subbuf meta data directly under locks.
 
   Use the subbuf_order for other calculations in the ring buffer.
 
 - Remove the useless "cpus" field of trace_buffer
 
   The code has been restructured and the "cpus" field is no longer used.
   Remove it.
 
 - Remove the "mapped" field of the ring buffer and use a helper function instead.
 
   The "mapped" field has become a bit overused and made the code come
   complex in using a counter for what is denoted as being mapped or not.
   There are other fields that are set when the ring buffer is considered
   mapped. Add a helper function to check those fields and use that instead
   of keeping track of a counter.

1484625c59 tracefs updates for v7.3:
- Define event fields before directory creation
 
   Move the event_define_fields() call in event_create_dir() before the
   eventfs directory creation. Previously, a failure after directory
   creation wouldn't clean up eventfs_inode because the error path didn't
   call eventfs_remove_dir(). This eliminates the need to clean up the
   eventfs directories if event_define_fields() fails.
 
 - Add warning for out of bounds pos in __eventfs_iterate()
 
   Sashiko complains about the ctx->pos causing issues if it is less than 2
   or greater than MAX_INT in __eventfs_iterate(). The thing is, the logic
   prevents that from happening. But to make Sashiko happy, add a WARN_ON()
   and exit safely if the function ever does get input that is out of the
   range the function expects.

Merge tag 'tracefs-v7.3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace

Pull tracefs updates from Steven Rostedt:

 - Define event fields before directory creation

   Move the event_define_fields() call in event_create_dir() before the
   eventfs directory creation. Previously, a failure after directory
   creation wouldn't clean up eventfs_inode because the error path
   didn't call eventfs_remove_dir(). This eliminates the need to clean
   up the eventfs directories if event_define_fields() fails.

 - Add warning for out of bounds pos in __eventfs_iterate()

   Sashiko complains about the ctx->pos causing issues if it is less
   than 2 or greater than MAX_INT in __eventfs_iterate(). The thing is,
   the logic prevents that from happening. But to make Sashiko happy,
   add a WARN_ON() and exit safely if the function ever does get input
   that is out of the range the function expects.
