Locking updates for v7.2:
Futex updates:
- Optimize futex hash bucket access patterns (Peter Zijlstra)
- Large series to address the robust futex unlock race for real,
by Thomas Gleixner:
"The robust futex unlock mechanism is racy in respect
to the clearing of the robust_list_head::list_op_pending
pointer because unlock and clearing the pointer are not
atomic. The race window is between the unlock and clearing the
pending op pointer. If the task is forced to exit in this
window, exit will access a potentially invalid pending op
pointer when cleaning up the robust list. That happens if
another task manages to unmap the object containing the lock
before the cleanup, which results in an UAF. In the worst case
this UAF can lead to memory corruption when unrelated content
has been mapped to the same address by the time the access
happens.
User space can't solve this problem without help from the kernel.
This series provides the kernel side infrastructure to help it
along:
1) Combined unlock, pointer clearing, wake-up for the
contended case
2) VDSO based unlock and pointer clearing helpers with a
fix-up function in the kernel when user space was interrupted
within the critical section.

Interrupt core code changes:
- Rework of /proc/interrupt handling:
/proc/interrupts was subject to micro optimizations for a long time,
but most of the low hanging fruit was left on the table. This rework
addresses the major time consuming issues:
- Printing a long series of zeros one by one via a format string
instead of counting subsequent zeros and emitting a string
constant.
- Simplify and cache the conditions whether interrupts should be printed
- Use a proper iteration over the interrupt descriptor xarray
instead of walking and testing one by one.
- Provide helper functions for the architecture code to emit the
architecture specific counters
- Convert the counter structure in x86 to an array, which
simplifies the output and add mechanisms to suppress unused
architecture interrupts, which just occupy space for
nothing. Adopt the new core mechanisms.
This adjusts the gdb scripts related to interrupt counter statitics
to work with the new mechanisms.
- Prevent a string overflow in the /proc/irq/$N/ directory name
creation code.

percpu: Sanitize __percpu_qual include hell
Slapping __percpu_qual into the next available header is sloppy at best. It's required by __percpu which is defined in compiler_types.h and that is meant to be included without requiring a boatload of other headers so that a struct or function declaration can contain a __percpu qualifier w/o further prerequisites. This implicit dependency on linux/percpu.h makes that impossible and causes a major problem when trying to separate headers. Create asm/percpu_types.h and move it there. Include that from compiler_types.h and the whole recursion problem goes away. Fix up UM so it uses the generic header and includes it in the UM_HOST build, which pulls in compiler_types.h. The USER_CFLAGS fix was suggested by Richard.

uaccess: unify inline vs outline copy_{from,to}_user() selection
The kernel allows arches to select between inline and outline
implementations of the copy_{from,to}_user() by defining individual
INLINE_COPY_FROM_USER and INLINE_COPY_TO_USER, correspondingly. However,
all arches enable or disable them always together.
Without the real use-case for one helper being inlined while the other
outlined, having independent controls is excessive and error prone.
Switch the codebase to the single unified INLINE_COPY_USER control.

genirq/proc: Increase default interrupt number precision to four
Quite some architectures have four character wide acronyms for architecture specific interrupts like IPI, NMI, etc. The default precision of printing the Linux device interrupt numbers is three, which causes quite some code to play games with adding or omitting space after the acronym and the colon in order to keep the per CPU numbers properly aligned. Increase the default number precision to four in the core code and get rid of the space games all over the place. At the same time align all architecture specific descriptor texts left so that they show up in the same column as the interrupt chip names, which makes the output more uniform accross architectures. Fix up the GDB script to this new scheme as well. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@kernel.org> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260517194931.839482411@kernel.org |

ring-buffer: Flush and stop persistent ring buffer on panic
On real hardware, panic and machine reboot may not flush hardware cache
to memory. This means the persistent ring buffer, which relies on a
coherent state of memory, may not have its events written to the buffer
and they may be lost. Moreover, there may be inconsistency with the
counters which are used for validation of the integrity of the
persistent ring buffer which may cause all data to be discarded.
To avoid this issue, stop recording of the ring buffer on panic and
flush the cache of the ring buffer's memory.

um: Disable GCOV_PROFILE_ALL on 32-bit UML with Clang 20/21
Clang 20 and 21 miscompute __builtin_object_size() when -fprofile-arcs
is active on 32-bit UML targets, which passes incorrect object size
calculations for local variables through always_inline copy_to_user()
and check_copy_size(), causing spurious compile-time errors:
include/linux/ucopysize.h:52:4: error: call to '__bad_copy_from' declared with 'error' attribute: copy source size is too small
The regression was introduced in LLVM commit 02b8ee281947 ("[llvm]
Improve llvm.objectsize computation by computing GEP, alloca and malloc
parameters bound"), which shipped in Clang 20. It was fixed in LLVM
by commit 45b697e610fd ("[MemoryBuiltins] Consider index type size
when aggregating gep offsets"), which was backported to the LLVM 22.x
release branch.
The bug requires 32-bit UML + GCOV_PROFILE_ALL (which uses -fprofile-arcs),
though the exact trigger depends on optimizer decisions influenced by other
enabled configs.
Prevent the bad combination by disabling UML's ARCH_HAS_GCOV_PROFILE_ALL
on 32-bit when using Clang 20.x or 21.x.

arch, mm: consolidate empty_zero_page
Reduce 22 declarations of empty_zero_page to 3 and 23 declarations of ZERO_PAGE() to 4. Every architecture defines empty_zero_page that way or another, but for the most of them it is always a page aligned page in BSS and most definitions of ZERO_PAGE do virt_to_page(empty_zero_page). Move Linus vetted x86 definition of empty_zero_page and ZERO_PAGE() to the core MM and drop these definitions in architectures that do not implement colored zero page (MIPS and s390). ZERO_PAGE() remains a macro because turning it to a wrapper for a static inline causes severe pain in header dependencies. For the most part the change is mechanical, with these being noteworthy: * alpha: aliased empty_zero_page with ZERO_PGE that was also used for boot parameters. Switching to a generic empty_zero_page removes the aliasing and keeps ZERO_PGE for boot parameters only * arm64: uses __pa_symbol() in ZERO_PAGE() so that definition of ZERO_PAGE() is kept intact. * m68k/parisc/um: allocated empty_zero_page from memblock, although they do not support zero page coloring and having it in BSS will work fine. * sparc64 can have empty_zero_page in BSS rather allocate it, but it can't use virt_to_page() for BSS. Keep it's definition of ZERO_PAGE() but instead of allocating it, make mem_map_zero point to empty_zero_page. * sh: used empty_zero_page for boot parameters at the very early boot. Rename the parameters page to boot_params_page and let sh use the generic empty_zero_page. * hexagon: had an amusing comment about empty_zero_page /* A handy thing to have if one has the RAM. Declared in head.S */ that unfortunately had to go :) Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20260211103141.3215197-4-rppt@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Mike Rapoport (Microsoft) <rppt@kernel.org> Acked-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de> [parisc] Tested-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de> [parisc] Reviewed-by: Christophe Leroy (CS GROUP) <chleroy@kernel.org> Acked-by: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com> Acked-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Acked-by: Magnus Lindholm <linmag7@gmail.com> [alpha] Acked-by: Dinh Nguyen <dinguyen@kernel.org> [nios2] Acked-by: Andreas Larsson <andreas@gaisler.com> [sparc] Acked-by: David Hildenbrand (Arm) <david@kernel.org> Acked-by: Liam R.

um: Replace strncpy() with strnlen()+memcpy_and_pad() in strncpy_chunk_from_user()
Replace the deprecated[1] strncpy() with strnlen() on the source followed by memcpy_and_pad(). This function is a chunk callback for UML's strncpy_from_user() implementation, called by buffer_op() to process userspace memory one page at a time. The source is a kernel-mapped userspace address that is not guaranteed to be NUL-terminated; "len" bounds how many bytes to read from it. By measuring the source string length first with strnlen(), we avoid reading past the NUL terminator in the source. memcpy_and_pad() then copies the string content and zero-fills the remainder of the chunk, preserving the original strncpy() behavior exactly: copy up to the first NUL, then pad with zeros to the full length. strtomem_pad() would be the idiomatic helper for this strnlen() + memcpy_and_pad() pattern, but it requires a compile-time-determinable destination size (via ARRAY_SIZE()). Here the destination is a char * into a caller-provided buffer and the chunk length is a runtime value, so the explicit two-step is necessary. No behavioral change: the same bytes are written to the destination (string content followed by zero padding), the pointer advances by the same amount, and the NUL-found return condition is unchanged.

um: Fix pte_read() and pte_exec() for kernel mappings
The pte_read() and pte_exec() helpers are only used during the TLB sync to determine the read/exec permissions for mmap. However, for kernel mappings, they will always return 0. This leads to kern_map() having to unconditionally set the exec flag to 1 and the read flag unexpectedly always being 0. Remove the unnecessary check for the _PAGE_USER bit in these helpers to ensure that the kernel mapping permissions can be correctly determined.

um: fix address-of CMSG_DATA() rvalue in stub
The UML stub takes the address of CMSG_DATA(fd_msg):
fd_map = (void *)&CMSG_DATA(fd_msg);
CMSG_DATA() is specified by POSIX to return unsigned char *. Taking
its address is semantically wrong -- the intent is to get a pointer
to the control message data, which is exactly what CMSG_DATA()
already returns.
This happens to compile with glibc because glibc's primary
CMSG_DATA definition accesses a flexible array member:
#define CMSG_DATA(cmsg) ((cmsg)->__cmsg_data)
An array lvalue can have its address taken, and &array yields the
same address as array. However, glibc also has an alternative
definition that uses pointer arithmetic (returning an rvalue), and
musl's definition always uses pointer arithmetic:
/* musl */
#define CMSG_DATA(cmsg) \
((unsigned char *)(((struct cmsghdr *)(cmsg)) + 1))
Taking the address of an rvalue is a hard error in C, so the
current code fails to compile with musl libc.
Remove the erroneous & operator. The resulting code is correct
regardless of the CMSG_DATA implementation -- it simply assigns the
data pointer, which is what the subsequent code (fd_map[--num_fds])
expects.
No functional change with glibc; fixes the build with musl.

Convert more 'alloc_obj' cases to default GFP_KERNEL arguments
This converts some of the visually simpler cases that have been split over multiple lines. I only did the ones that are easy to verify the resulting diff by having just that final GFP_KERNEL argument on the next line. Somebody should probably do a proper coccinelle script for this, but for me the trivial script actually resulted in an assertion failure in the middle of the script. I probably had made it a bit _too_ trivial. So after fighting that far a while I decided to just do some of the syntactically simpler cases with variations of the previous 'sed' scripts. The more syntactically complex multi-line cases would mostly really want whitespace cleanup anyway. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> |

Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argument
This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using
git grep -l '\<k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'
to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.
Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.
For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union object instances: Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...) Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...) Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...) (where TYPE may also be *VAR) The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning "TYPE *". Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <kees@kernel.org> |

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

um: introduce arch_zone_limits_init()
Move calculations of zone limits to a dedicated arch_zone_limits_init() function. Later MM core will use this function as an architecture specific callback during nodes and zones initialization and thus there won't be a need to call free_area_init() from every architecture.

kernel.h: drop hex.h and update all hex.h users
Remove <linux/hex.h> from <linux/kernel.h> and update all users/callers of hex.h interfaces to directly #include <linux/hex.h> as part of the process of putting kernel.h on a diet. Removing hex.h from kernel.h means that 36K C source files don't have to pay the price of parsing hex.h for the roughly 120 C source files that need it. This change has been build-tested with allmodconfig on most ARCHes. Also, all users/callers of <linux/hex.h> in the entire source tree have been updated if needed (if not already #included).

The series improves on the current discontiguous clearing approach in two
ways:
- clear pages in a contiguous fashion.
- use batched clearing via clear_pages() wherever exposed.
The first is useful because it allows us to make much better use of
hardware prefetchers.
The second, enables advertising the real extent to the processor. Where
specific instructions support it (ex. string instructions on x86; "mops"
on arm64 etc), a processor can optimize based on this because, instead of
seeing a sequence of 8-byte stores, or a sequence of 4KB pages, it sees a
larger unit being operated on.
For instance, AMD Zen uarchs (for extents larger than LLC-size) switch to
a mode where they start eliding cacheline allocation. This is helpful not
just because it results in higher bandwidth, but also because now the
cache is not evicting useful cachelines and replacing them with zeroes.
Demand faulting a 64GB region shows performance improvement:
$ perf bench mem mmap -p $pg-sz -f demand -s 64GB -l 5
baseline +series
(GBps +- %stdev) (GBps +- %stdev)
pg-sz=2MB 11.76 +- 1.10% 25.34 +- 1.18% [*] +115.47% preempt=*
pg-sz=1GB 24.85 +- 2.41% 39.22 +- 2.32% + 57.82% preempt=none|voluntary
pg-sz=1GB (similar) 52.73 +- 0.20% [#] +112.19% preempt=full|lazy
[*] This improvement is because switching to sequential clearing
allows the hardware prefetchers to do a much better job.
[#] For pg-sz=1GB a large part of the improvement is because of the
cacheline elision mentioned above. preempt=full|lazy improves upon
that because, not needing explicit invocations of cond_resched() to
ensure reasonable preemption latency, it can clear the full extent
as a single unit. In comparison the maximum extent used for
preempt=none|voluntary is PROCESS_PAGES_NON_PREEMPT_BATCH (32MB).
When provided the full extent the processor forgoes allocating
cachelines on this path almost entirely.
(The hope is that eventually, in the fullness of time, the lazy
preemption model will be able to do the same job that none or
voluntary models are used for, allowing us to do away with
cond_resched().)
Raghavendra also tested previous version of the series on AMD Genoa and
sees similar improvement [1] with preempt=lazy.

This patch (of 8):
Let's drop all variants that effectively map to clear_page() and provide
it in a generic variant instead.
We'll use the macro clear_user_page to indicate whether an architecture
provides it's own variant.
Also, clear_user_page() is only called from the generic variant of
clear_user_highpage(), so define it only if the architecture does not
provide a clear_user_highpage(). And, for simplicity define it in
linux/highmem.h.
Note that for parisc, clear_page() and clear_user_page() map to
clear_page_asm(), so we can just get rid of the custom clear_user_page()
implementation. There is a clear_user_page_asm() function on parisc, that
seems to be unused. Not sure what's up with that.

um: Fix incorrect __acquires/__releases annotations
With Clang's context analysis, the compiler is a bit more strict about
what goes into the __acquires/__releases annotations and can't refer to
non-existent variables.
On an UM build, mm_id.h is transitively included into mm_types.h, and we
can observe the following error (if context analysis is enabled in e.g.
stackdepot.c):
In file included from lib/stackdepot.c:17:

arch/um/include/shared/skas/mm_id.h:25:53: error: use of undeclared identifier 'turnstile'
25 | void exit_turnstile(struct mm_id *mm_id) __releases(turnstile);
| ^~~~~~~~~
One (discarded) option was to use token_context_lock(turnstile) to just
define a token with the already used name, but that would not allow the
compiler to distinguish between different mm_id-dependent instances.
Another constraint is that struct mm_id is only declared and incomplete
in the header, so even if we tried to construct an expression to get to
the mutex instance, this would fail (including more headers transitively
everywhere should also be avoided).
Instead, just declare an mm_id-dependent helper to return the mutex, and
use the mm_id-dependent call expression in the __acquires/__releases
attributes; the compiler will consider the identity of the mutex to be
the call expression. Then using __get_turnstile() in the lock/unlock
wrappers (with context analysis enabled for mmu.c) the compiler will be
able to verify the implementation of the wrappers as-is.
We leave context analysis disabled in arch/um/kernel/skas/ for now. This
change is a preparatory change to allow enabling context analysis in
subsystems that include any of the above headers.
No functional change intended.

Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:
- Allow creaing nbcon console drivers with an unsafe write_atomic()
callback that can only be called by the final nbcon_atomic_flush_unsafe().
Otherwise, the driver would rely on the kthread.
It is going to be used as the-best-effort approach for an
experimental nbcon netconsole driver, see
https://lore.kernel.org/r/20251121-nbcon-v1-2-503d17b2b4af@debian.org
Note that a safe .write_atomic() callback is supposed to work in NMI
context. But some networking drivers are not safe even in IRQ
context:
https://lore.kernel.org/r/oc46gdpmmlly5o44obvmoatfqo5bhpgv7pabpvb6sjuqioymcg@gjsma3ghoz35
In an ideal world, all networking drivers would be fixed first and
the atomic flush would be blocked only in NMI context. But it brings
the question how reliable networking drivers are when the system is
in a bad state. They might block flushing more reliable serial
consoles which are more suitable for serious debugging anyway.
- Allow to use the last 4 bytes of the printk ring buffer.
- Prevent queuing IRQ work and block printk kthreads when consoles are
suspended. Otherwise, they create non-necessary churn or even block
the suspend.
- Release console_lock() between each record in the kthread used for
legacy consoles on RT. It might significantly speed up the boot.
- Release nbcon context between each record in the atomic flush. It
prevents stalls of the related printk kthread after it has lost the
ownership in the middle of a record
- Add support for NBCON consoles into KDB
- Add %ptsP modifier for printing struct timespec64 and use it where
possible
- Misc code clean up

um: Don't rename vmap to kernel_vmap
In order to work around the existence of a vmap symbol in libpcap, the UML makefile unconditionally redefines vmap to kernel_vmap. However, this not only affects the actual vmap symbol, but also anything else named vmap, including a number of struct members in DRM. This would not be too much of a problem, since all uses are also updated, except we now have Rust DRM bindings, which expect the corresponding Rust structs to have 'vmap' names. Since the redefinition applies in bindgen, but not to Rust code, we end up with errors such as: error[E0560]: struct `drm_gem_object_funcs` has no fields named `vmap` --> rust/kernel/drm/gem/mod.rs:210:9 Since libpcap support was removed in commit |
