f2fs-for-6.19-rc1
This series focuses on minor clean-ups and performance optimizations across sysfs, documentation, debugfs, tracepoints, slab allocation, and GC. Furthermore, it resolves several corner-case bugs caught by xfstests, as well as issues related to 16KB page support and f2fs_enable_checkpoint. Enhancement: - wrap ASCII tables in literal blocks to fix LaTeX build - optimize trace_f2fs_write_checkpoint with enums - support to show curseg.next_blkoff in debugfs - add a sysfs entry to show max open zones - add fadvise tracepoint - use global inline_xattr_slab instead of per-sb slab cache - set default valid_thresh_ratio to 80 for zoned devices - maintain one time GC mode is enabled during whole zoned GC cycle Bug fix: - ensure node page reads complete before f2fs_put_super() finishes - fix to not account invalid blocks in get_left_section_blocks() - revert summary entry count from 2048 to 512 in 16kb block support - fix to detect recoverable inode during dryrun of find_fsync_dnodes() - fix age extent cache insertion skip on counter overflow - Add sanity checks before unlinking and loading inodes - ensure minimum trim granularity accounts for all devices - block cache/dio write during f2fs_enable_checkpoint() - fix to propagate error from f2fs_enable_checkpoint() - invalidate dentry cache on failed whiteout creation - fix to avoid updating compression context during writeback - fix to avoid updating zero-sized extent in extent cache - fix to avoid potential deadlock -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAABCgAdFiEE00UqedjCtOrGVvQiQBSofoJIUNIFAmk3N1kACgkQQBSofoJI UNKfGw//Z7+0Oy0w/3k8UkJHvz6b3sDFzzCGlyBtYUaQaxp0eXxytB9T7GNE4g8z UA6nOA7VvHdFyu8YvJkMrf8vejorVnO9I86vlUZ/uZcOqKPWkjNxaHJvMYg0ZvkS uwiFo8rSL5FO0MSbnVhZScnolNuEINYi1sYd0fb2BzHB3P7cSwRrDGYuU53E3S8p 3JsOa1EN0DrxlL7YTI8q8wmMcN1+/BK9YP4Sl3r8nBAYNAoP/JLMY40YkOTk3gKy ppJ32e++D9XxVTEaZUvktW/z9zLKdSvqjFE0BduSbNrqlfGj2AEwU1WJouFPYDOs b4mDhi9y3Mv2LWY6fTeOXcT/nTf6IssopHNBpPI6Ay73GwENPOYf+q4oTNeqpa1f sGqmw6M8NGiEjQAPKrbON8IDSpdc6Yzk1ENRjOf5j7/xR0gtL1b3G0KV5FCO+25x QP9KupkhBc9yheCTrig6reCQlvfWU+I70tyB30YD/BcqhCB/EjBvM/v9kK1udN0e 6wjr5eBfX8z8DGlqNYzAjjEQC8IfkwDc1qLkovTsBKBo2Z0fHPriAZERAcLU7TuU z06GZQT6QdZ4lAw4KfNWcef0S3m14qY5E8qJoQS2G7DwdMOglouJRakOi75nW1Dc lSZBI1m1JxwLsj7iXNXLEJoGMUR5u+oUzJyj46trn6fOG6AIbuo= =4ZOp -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'f2fs-for-6.19-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jaegeuk/f2fs Pull f2fs updates from Jaegeuk Kim: "This series focuses on minor clean-ups and performance optimizations across sysfs, documentation, debugfs, tracepoints, slab allocation, and GC.

NFSD 6.19 Release Notes
Mike Snitzer's mechanism for disabling I/O caching introduced in
v6.18 is extended to include using direct I/O. The goal is to
further reduce the memory footprint consumed by NFS clients
accessing large data sets via NFSD.
The NFSD community adopted a maintainer entry profile during this
cycle. See
Documentation/filesystems/nfs/nfsd-maintainer-entry-profile.rst
Work continues on hardening NFSD's implementation of the pNFS block
layout type. This type enables pNFS clients to directly access the
underlying block devices that contain an exported file system,
reducing server overhead and increasing data throughput.
The remaining patches in this pull request are clean-ups and minor
optimizations. Many thanks to the contributors, reviewers, testers,
and bug reporters who participated during the v6.19 NFSD development
cycle.

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

docs: f2fs: wrap ASCII tables in literal blocks to fix LaTeX build
Sphinx's LaTeX builder fails when converting the nested ASCII tables in f2fs.rst, producing the following error: "Markup is unsupported in LaTeX: longtable does not support nesting a table." Wrap the affected ASCII tables in literal code blocks to force Sphinx to render them verbatim. This prevents nested longtables and fixes the PDF build failure on Sphinx 8.2.x.

This has been another busy cycle for documentation, with a lot of
build-system thrashing. That work should slow down from here on out.
- The various scripts and tools for documentation were spread out in
several directories; now they are (almost) all coalesced under
tools/docs/. The holdout is the kernel-doc script, which cannot be
easily moved without some further thought.
- As the amount of Python code increases, we are accumulating modules that
are imported by multiple programs. These modules have been pulled
together under tools/lib/python/ -- at least, for documentation-related
programs. There is other Python code in the tree that might eventually
want to move toward this organization.
- The Perl kernel-doc.pl script has been removed. It is no longer used by
default, and nobody has missed it, least of all anybody who actually had
to look at it.
- The docs build was controlled by a complex mess of makefilese that few
dared to touch. Mauro has moved that logic into a new program
(tools/docs/sphinx-build-wrapper) that, with any luck at all, will be far
easier to understand and maintain.
- The get_feat.pl program, used to access information under
Documentation/features/, has been rewritten in Python, bringing an end to
the use of Perl in the docs subsystem.
- The top-level README file has been reorganized into a more
reader-friendly presentation.
- A lot of Chinese translation additions

Crypto library updates for 6.19
This is the main crypto library pull request for 6.19. It includes:
- Add SHA-3 support to lib/crypto/, including support for both the
hash functions and the extendable-output functions. Reimplement the
existing SHA-3 crypto_shash support on top of the library.
This is motivated mainly by the upcoming support for the ML-DSA
signature algorithm, which needs the SHAKE128 and SHAKE256
functions. But even on its own it's a useful cleanup.
This also fixes the longstanding issue where the
architecture-optimized SHA-3 code was disabled by default.
- Add BLAKE2b support to lib/crypto/, and reimplement the existing
BLAKE2b crypto_shash support on top of the library.
This is motivated mainly by btrfs, which supports BLAKE2b checksums.
With this change, all btrfs checksum algorithms now have library
APIs. btrfs is planned to start just using the library directly.
This refactor also improves consistency between the BLAKE2b code and
BLAKE2s code. And as usual, it also fixes the issue where the
architecture-optimized BLAKE2b code was disabled by default.
- Add POLYVAL support to lib/crypto/, replacing the existing POLYVAL
support in crypto_shash. Reimplement HCTR2 on top of the library.
This simplifies the code and improves HCTR2 performance. As usual,
it also makes the architecture-optimized code be enabled by default.
The generic implementation of POLYVAL is greatly improved as well.
- Clean up the BLAKE2s code.
- Add FIPS self-tests for SHA-1, SHA-2, and SHA-3.

This series is part of a larger effort to change directory operation locking to allow multiple concurrent operations in a directory. The ultimate goal is to lock the target dentry(s) rather than the whole parent directory. To help with changing the locking protocol, this series centralizes locking and lookup in new helper functions.

"Features:
- Hide inode->i_state behind accessors. Open-coded accesses prevent
asserting they are done correctly. One obvious aspect is locking,
but significantly more can be checked. For example it can be
detected when the code is clearing flags which are already missing,
or is setting flags when it is illegal (e.g., I_FREEING when
->i_count > 0)
- Provide accessors for ->i_state, converts all filesystems using
coccinelle and manual conversions (btrfs, ceph, smb, f2fs, gfs2,
overlayfs, nilfs2, xfs), and makes plain ->i_state access fail to
compile
- Rework I_NEW handling to operate without fences, simplifying the
code after the accessor infrastructure is in place
Cleanups:
- Move wait_on_inode() from writeback.h to fs.h
- Spell out fenced ->i_state accesses with explicit smp_wmb/smp_rmb
for clarity
- Cosmetic fixes to LRU handling

"FUSE iomap Support for Buffered Reads:
This adds iomap support for FUSE buffered reads and readahead. This
enables granular uptodate tracking with large folios so only
non-uptodate portions need to be read. Also fixes a race condition
with large folios + writeback cache that could cause data corruption
on partial writes followed by reads.
- Refactored iomap read/readahead bio logic into helpers
- Added caller-provided callbacks for read operations
- Moved buffered IO bio logic into new file
- FUSE now uses iomap for read_folio and readahead
Zero Range Folio Batch Support:
Add folio batch support for iomap_zero_range() to handle dirty
folios over unwritten mappings. Fix raciness issues where dirty data
could be lost during zero range operations.
- filemap_get_folios_tag_range() helper for dirty folio lookup
- Optional zero range dirty folio processing
- XFS fills dirty folios on zero range of unwritten mappings
- Removed old partial EOF zeroing optimization
DIO Write Completions from Interrupt Context:
Restore pre-iomap behavior where pure overwrite completions run
inline rather than being deferred to workqueue. Reduces context
switches for high-performance workloads like ScyllaDB.
- Removed unused IOCB_DIO_CALLER_COMP code
- Error completions always run in user context (fixes zonefs)
- Reworked REQ_FUA selection logic
- Inverted IOMAP_DIO_INLINE_COMP to IOMAP_DIO_OFFLOAD_COMP
Buffered IO Cleanups:
Some performance and code clarity improvements:
- Replace manual bitmap scanning with find_next_bit()
- Simplify read skip logic for writes
- Optimize pending async writeback accounting
- Better variable naming
- Documentation for iomap_finish_folio_write() requirements
Misaligned Vectors for Zoned XFS:
Enables sub-block aligned vectors in XFS always-COW mode for zoned
devices via new IOMAP_DIO_FSBLOCK_ALIGNED flag.
Bug Fixes:
- Allocate s_dio_done_wq for async reads (fixes syzbot report after
error completion changes)

fs/resctrl: Update bit_usage to reflect io_alloc
The "shareable_bits" and "bit_usage" resctrl files associated with cache resources give insight into how instances of a cache is used. Update the annotated capacity bitmasks displayed by "bit_usage" to include the cache portions allocated for I/O via the "io_alloc" feature. "shareable_bits" is a global bitmask of shareable cache with I/O and can thus not present the per-domain I/O allocations possible with the "io_alloc" feature.

fs/resctrl: Introduce interface to display io_alloc CBMs
Introduce the "io_alloc_cbm" resctrl file to display the capacity bitmasks (CBMs) that represent the portions of each cache instance allocated for I/O traffic on a cache resource that supports the "io_alloc" feature. io_alloc_cbm resides in the info directory of a cache resource, for example, /sys/fs/resctrl/info/L3/. Since the resource name is part of the path, it is not necessary to display the resource name as done in the schemata file. When CDP is enabled, io_alloc routes traffic using the highest CLOSID associated with the CDP_CODE resource and that CLOSID becomes unusable for the CDP_DATA resource. The highest CLOSID of CDP_CODE and CDP_DATA resources will be kept in sync to ensure consistent user interface. In preparation for this, access the CBMs for I/O traffic through highest CLOSID of either CDP_CODE or CDP_DATA resource.

fs/resctrl: Add user interface to enable/disable io_alloc feature
AMD's SDCIAE forces all SDCI lines to be placed into the L3 cache portions identified by the highest-supported L3_MASK_n register, where n is the maximum supported CLOSID. To support this, when io_alloc resctrl feature is enabled, reserve the highest CLOSID exclusively for I/O allocation traffic making it no longer available for general CPU cache allocation. Introduce user interface to enable/disable io_alloc feature and encourage users to enable io_alloc only when running workloads that can benefit from this functionality. On enable, initialize the io_alloc CLOSID with all usable CBMs across all the domains. Since CLOSIDs are managed by resctrl fs, it is least invasive to make "io_alloc is supported by maximum supported CLOSID" part of the initial resctrl fs support for io_alloc. Take care to minimally (only in error messages) expose this use of CLOSID for io_alloc to user space so that this is not required from other architectures that may support io_alloc differently in the future. When resctrl is mounted with "-o cdp" to enable code/data prioritization, there are two L3 resources that can support I/O allocation: L3CODE and L3DATA. From resctrl fs perspective the two resources share a CLOSID and the architecture's available CLOSID are halved to support this. The architecture's underlying CLOSID used by SDCIAE when CDP is enabled is the CLOSID associated with the CDP_CODE resource, but from resctrl's perspective there is only one CLOSID for both CDP_CODE and CDP_DATA. CDP_DATA is thus not usable for general (CPU) cache allocation nor I/O allocation. Keep the CDP_CODE and CDP_DATA I/O alloc status in sync to avoid any confusion to user space. That is, enabling io_alloc on CDP_CODE does so on CDP_DATA and vice-versa, and keep the I/O allocation CBMs of CDP_CODE and CDP_DATA in sync.

fs/resctrl: Introduce interface to display "io_alloc" support
Introduce the "io_alloc" resctrl file to the "info" area of a cache resource, for example /sys/fs/resctrl/info/L3/io_alloc. "io_alloc" indicates support for the "io_alloc" feature that allows direct insertion of data from I/O devices into the cache. Restrict exposing support for "io_alloc" to the L3 resource that is the only resource where this feature can be backed by AMD's L3 Smart Data Cache Injection Allocation Enforcement (SDCIAE). With that, the "io_alloc" file is only visible to user space if the L3 resource supports "io_alloc". Doing so makes the file visible for all cache resources though, for example also L2 cache (if it supports cache allocation). As a consequence, add capability for file to report expected "enabled" and "disabled", as well as "not supported".

mm: introduce VM_MAYBE_GUARD and make visible in /proc/$pid/smaps
Patch series "introduce VM_MAYBE_GUARD and make it sticky", v4. Currently, guard regions are not visible to users except through /proc/$pid/pagemap, with no explicit visibility at the VMA level. This makes the feature less useful, as it isn't entirely apparent which VMAs may have these entries present, especially when performing actions which walk through memory regions such as those performed by CRIU. This series addresses this issue by introducing the VM_MAYBE_GUARD flag which fulfils this role, updating the smaps logic to display an entry for these. The semantics of this flag are that a guard region MAY be present if set (we cannot be sure, as we can't efficiently track whether an MADV_GUARD_REMOVE finally removes all the guard regions in a VMA) - but if not set the VMA definitely does NOT have any guard regions present. It's problematic to establish this flag without further action, because that means that VMAs with guard regions in them become non-mergeable with adjacent VMAs for no especially good reason. To work around this, this series also introduces the concept of 'sticky' VMA flags - that is flags which: a. if set in one VMA and not in another still permit those VMAs to be merged (if otherwise compatible). b. When they are merged, the resultant VMA must have the flag set. The VMA logic is updated to propagate these flags correctly. Additionally, VM_MAYBE_GUARD being an explicit VMA flag allows us to solve an issue with file-backed guard regions - previously these established an anon_vma object for file-backed mappings solely to have vma_needs_copy() correctly propagate guard region mappings to child processes. We introduce a new flag alias VM_COPY_ON_FORK (which currently only specifies VM_MAYBE_GUARD) and update vma_needs_copy() to check explicitly for this flag and to copy page tables if it is present, which resolves this issue. Additionally, we add the ability for allow-listed VMA flags to be atomically writable with only mmap/VMA read locks held. The only flag we allow so far is VM_MAYBE_GUARD, which we carefully ensure does not cause any races by being allowed to do so. This allows us to maintain guard region installation as a read-locked operation and not endure the overhead of obtaining a write lock here. Finally we introduce extensive VMA userland tests to assert that the sticky VMA logic behaves correctly as well as guard region self tests to assert that smaps visibility is correctly implemented. This patch (of 9): Currently, if a user needs to determine if guard regions are present in a range, they have to scan all VMAs (or have knowledge of which ones might have guard regions).

VFS: change vfs_mkdir() to unlock on failure.
vfs_mkdir() already drops the reference to the dentry on failure but it leaves the parent locked. This complicates end_creating() which needs to unlock the parent even though the dentry is no longer available. If we change vfs_mkdir() to unlock on failure as well as releasing the dentry, we can remove the "parent" arg from end_creating() and simplify the rules for calling it. Note that cachefiles_get_directory() can choose to substitute an error instead of actually calling vfs_mkdir(), for fault injection. In that case it needs to call end_creating(), just as vfs_mkdir() now does on error. ovl_create_real() will now unlock on error. So the conditional end_creating() after the call is removed, and end_creating() is called internally on error.

iomap: add caller-provided callbacks for read and readahead
Add caller-provided callbacks for read and readahead so that it can be
used generically, especially by filesystems that are not block-based.
In particular, this:
* Modifies the read and readahead interface to take in a
struct iomap_read_folio_ctx that is publicly defined as:
struct iomap_read_folio_ctx {
const struct iomap_read_ops *ops;
struct folio *cur_folio;
struct readahead_control *rac;
void *read_ctx;
};
where struct iomap_read_ops is defined as:
struct iomap_read_ops {
int (*read_folio_range)(const struct iomap_iter *iter,
struct iomap_read_folio_ctx *ctx,
size_t len);
void (*read_submit)(struct iomap_read_folio_ctx *ctx);
};
read_folio_range() reads in the folio range and is required by the
caller to provide. read_submit() is optional and is used for
submitting any pending read requests.
* Modifies existing filesystems that use iomap for read and readahead to
use the new API, through the new statically inlined helpers
iomap_bio_read_folio() and iomap_bio_readahead(). There is no change
in functionality for those filesystems.

Ext4 bug fixes for 6.18-rc2, including
* Fix regression caused by removing CONFIG_EXT3_FS when testing some
very old defconfigs
* Avoid a BUG_ON when opening a file on a maliciously corrupted file system
* Avoid mm warnings when freeing a very large orphan file metadata
* Avoid a theoretical races between metadata wrtteback and checkpoints.
(It's very hard to hit in practice, since the race requires that the
writeback take a very long time.)

ext4, doc: fix and improve directory hash tree description
Some of the details about how directory hash trees work were confusing or outright wrong, this patch should fix those. A note on dx_tail's dt_reserved member, as far as I can tell the kernel never sets this explicitly, so its content is apparently left-overs from what was there before (for the dx_root I've seen remnants of a ext4_dir_entry_tail struct from when the dir was not yet a hash dir).

It has been a relatively busy cycle in docsland, with changes all over:
- Bring the kernel memory-model docs into the Sphinx build in the "literal
include" mode.
- Lots of build-infrastructure work, further cleaning up long-term
kernel-doc technical debt. The sphinx-pre-install tool has been
converted to Python and updated for current systems.
- A new tool to detect when documents have been moved and generate HTML
redirects; this can be used on kernel.org (or any other site hosting the
rendered docs) to avoid breaking links.
- Automated processing of the YAML files describing the netlink protocol.
- A significant update of the maintainer's PGP guide.
...and a seemingly endless series of typo fixes, build-problem fixes, etc.

f2fs-for-6.18-rc1
This release focuses on two primary updates for Android devices. First, it sets
hash-based file name lookup as the default method to improve performance, while
retaining an option to fall back to a linear lookup. Second, it resolves a
persistent issue with the checkpoint=enable feature. The update further boosts
performance by prefetching node blocks, merging FUA writes more efficiently, and
optimizing block allocation policies.
The release is rounded out by a comprehensive set of bug fixes that address
memory safety, data integrity, and potential system hangs, along with minor
documentation and code clean-ups.
Enhancement:
- add mount option and sysfs entry to tune the lookup mode
- dump more information and add a timeout when enabling/disabling checkpoints
- readahead node blocks in F2FS_GET_BLOCK_PRECACHE mode
- merge FUA command with the existing writes
- allocate HOT_DATA for IPU writes
- Use allocate_section_policy to control write priority in multi-devices setups
- add reserved nodes for privileged users
- Add bggc_io_aware to adjust the priority of BG_GC when issuing IO
- show the list of donation files
Bug fix:
- add missing dput() when printing the donation list
- fix UAF issue in f2fs_merge_page_bio()
- add sanity check on ei.len in __update_extent_tree_range()
- fix infinite loop in __insert_extent_tree()
- fix zero-sized extent for precache extents
- fix to mitigate overhead of f2fs_zero_post_eof_page()
- fix to avoid migrating empty section
- fix to truncate first page in error path of f2fs_truncate()
- fix to update map->m_next_extent correctly in f2fs_map_blocks()
- fix wrong layout information on 16KB page
- fix to do sanity check on node footer for non inode dnode
- fix to avoid NULL pointer dereference in f2fs_check_quota_consistency()
- fix to detect potential corrupted nid in free_nid_list
- fix to clear unusable_cap for checkpoint=enable
- fix to zero data after EOF for compressed file correctly
- fix to avoid overflow while left shift operation
- fix condition in __allow_reserved_blocks()

change on vfs_parse_fs_string() calling conventions - get rid of the length argument (almost all callers pass strlen() of the string argument there), add vfs_parse_fs_qstr() for the cases that do want separate length Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iHUEABYKAB0WIQQqUNBr3gm4hGXdBJlZ7Krx/gZQ6wUCaNhllQAKCRBZ7Krx/gZQ 6wyiAP9TmyFLBWKC/sDNtRAiGRybEtcwvVZj1agpx0kZIWshUwD7BVg4AfDs+vN3 RoYYg9DR1SP5kZF7h2Ve1T39XDq6ZQU= =YZFG -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'pull-fs_context' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs Pull fs_context updates from Al Viro: "Change vfs_parse_fs_string() calling conventions Get rid of the length argument (almost all callers pass strlen() of the string argument there), add vfs_parse_fs_qstr() for the cases that do want separate length" * tag 'pull-fs_context' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: do_nfs4_mount(): switch to vfs_parse_fs_string() change the calling conventions for vfs_parse_fs_string() |

Summary of significant series in this pull request:
- The 3 patch series "mm, swap: improve cluster scan strategy" from Kairui Song improves performance and reduces the failure rate of swap cluster allocation. - The 4 patch series "support large align and nid in Rust allocators" from Vitaly Wool permits Rust allocators to set NUMA node and large alignment when perforning slub and vmalloc reallocs. - The 2 patch series "mm/damon/vaddr: support stat-purpose DAMOS" from Yueyang Pan extend DAMOS_STAT's handling of the DAMON operations sets for virtual address spaces for ops-level DAMOS filters. - The 3 patch series "execute PROCMAP_QUERY ioctl under per-vma lock" from Suren Baghdasaryan reduces mmap_lock contention during reads of /proc/pid/maps. - The 2 patch series "mm/mincore: minor clean up for swap cache checking" from Kairui Song performs some cleanup in the swap code. - The 11 patch series "mm: vm_normal_page*() improvements" from David Hildenbrand provides code cleanup in the pagemap code. - The 5 patch series "add persistent huge zero folio support" from Pankaj Raghav provides a block layer speedup by optionalls making the huge_zero_pagepersistent, instead of releasing it when its refcount falls to zero. - The 3 patch series "kho: fixes and cleanups" from Mike Rapoport adds a few touchups to the recently added Kexec Handover feature. - The 10 patch series "mm: make mm->flags a bitmap and 64-bit on all arches" from Lorenzo Stoakes turns mm_struct.flags into a bitmap. To end the constant struggle with space shortage on 32-bit conflicting with 64-bit's needs. - The 2 patch series "mm/swapfile.c and swap.h cleanup" from Chris Li cleans up some swap code. - The 7 patch series "selftests/mm: Fix false positives and skip unsupported tests" from Donet Tom fixes a few things in our selftests code. - The 7 patch series "prctl: extend PR_SET_THP_DISABLE to only provide THPs when advised" from David Hildenbrand "allows individual processes to opt-out of THP=always into THP=madvise, without affecting other workloads on the system". It's a long story - the [1/N] changelog spells out the considerations. - The 11 patch series "Add and use memdesc_flags_t" from Matthew Wilcox gets us started on the memdesc project. Please see https://kernelnewbies.org/MatthewWilcox/Memdescs and https://blogs.oracle.com/linux/post/introducing-memdesc. - The 3 patch series "Tiny optimization for large read operations" from Chi Zhiling improves the efficiency of the pagecache read path. - The 5 patch series "Better split_huge_page_test result check" from Zi Yan improves our folio splitting selftest code. - The 2 patch series "test that rmap behaves as expected" from Wei Yang adds some rmap selftests. - The 3 patch series "remove write_cache_pages()" from Christoph Hellwig removes that function and converts its two remaining callers. - The 2 patch series "selftests/mm: uffd-stress fixes" from Dev Jain fixes some UFFD selftests issues. - The 3 patch series "introduce kernel file mapped folios" from Boris Burkov introduces the concept of "kernel file pages". Using these permits btrfs to account its metadata pages to the root cgroup, rather than to the cgroups of random inappropriate tasks. - The 2 patch series "mm/pageblock: improve readability of some pageblock handling" from Wei Yang provides some readability improvements to the page allocator code. - The 11 patch series "mm/damon: support ARM32 with LPAE" from SeongJae Park teaches DAMON to understand arm32 highmem. - The 4 patch series "tools: testing: Use existing atomic.h for vma/maple tests" from Brendan Jackman performs some code cleanups and deduplication under tools/testing/. - The 2 patch series "maple_tree: Fix testing for 32bit compiles" from Liam Howlett fixes a couple of 32-bit issues in tools/testing/radix-tree.c. - The 2 patch series "kasan: unify kasan_enabled() and remove arch-specific implementations" from Sabyrzhan Tasbolatov moves KASAN arch-specific initialization code into a common arch-neutral implementation. - The 3 patch series "mm: remove zpool" from Johannes Weiner removes zspool - an indirection layer which now only redirects to a single thing (zsmalloc). - The 2 patch series "mm: task_stack: Stack handling cleanups" from Pasha Tatashin makes a couple of cleanups in the fork code. - The 37 patch series "mm: remove nth_page()" from David Hildenbrand makes rather a lot of adjustments at various nth_page() callsites, eventually permitting the removal of that undesirable helper function. - The 2 patch series "introduce kasan.write_only option in hw-tags" from Yeoreum Yun creates a KASAN read-only mode for ARM, using that architecture's memory tagging feature. It is felt that a read-only mode KASAN is suitable for use in production systems rather than debug-only. - The 3 patch series "mm: hugetlb: cleanup hugetlb folio allocation" from Kefeng Wang does some tidying in the hugetlb folio allocation code. - The 12 patch series "mm: establish const-correctness for pointer parameters" from Max Kellermann makes quite a number of the MM API functions more accurate about the constness of their arguments.

Pull block updates from Jens Axboe:
- NVMe pull request via Keith:
- FC target fixes (Daniel)
- Authentication fixes and updates (Martin, Chris)
- Admin controller handling (Kamaljit)
- Target lockdep assertions (Max)
- Keep-alive updates for discovery (Alastair)
- Suspend quirk (Georg)
- MD pull request via Yu:
- Add support for a lockless bitmap.
A key feature for the new bitmap are that the IO fastpath is
lockless. If a user issues lots of write IO to the same bitmap
bit in a short time, only the first write has additional overhead
to update bitmap bit, no additional overhead for the following
writes.
By supporting only resync or recover written data, means in the
case creating new array or replacing with a new disk, there is no
need to do a full disk resync/recovery.
- Switch ->getgeo() and ->bios_param() to using struct gendisk rather
than struct block_device.
- Rust block changes via Andreas. This series adds configuration via
configfs and remote completion to the rnull driver. The series also
includes a set of changes to the rust block device driver API: a few
cleanup patches, and a few features supporting the rnull changes.
The series removes the raw buffer formatting logic from
`kernel::block` and improves the logic available in `kernel::string`
to support the same use as the removed logic.
- floppy arch cleanups
- Reduce the number of dereferencing needed for ublk commands
- Restrict supported sockets for nbd. Mostly done to eliminate a class
of issues perpetually reported by syzbot, by using nonsensical socket
setups.
- A few s390 dasd block fixes
- Fix a few issues around atomic writes
- Improve DMA interation for integrity requests
- Improve how iovecs are treated with regards to O_DIRECT aligment
constraints.
We used to require each segment to adhere to the constraints, now
only the request as a whole needs to.
- Clean up and improve p2p support, enabling use of p2p for metadata
payloads
- Improve locking of request lookup, using SRCU where appropriate
- Use page references properly for brd, avoiding very long RCU sections
- Fix ordering of recursively submitted IOs
- Clean up and improve updating nr_requests for a live device
- Various fixes and cleanups
