Pull arm64 fixes from Will Deacon:
"It finally seems to have calmed down on the arm64 fixes front, so
please pull these two straightforward fixes for -rc7. One fixes the
EL2 trap configuration for implementation-defined CPU PMU hardware
during boot and the other fixes a kcov selftest failure by excluding
our softirq early entry code:
- Fix PMU EL2 trap configuration for CPUs with an IMPDEF PMU
- Fix kcov boot selftest failure by excluding our early IRQ entry
code"

arm64/boot: Don't set PMUv3p9 FGT2 bits without PMUv3
|
|
On a CPU with FGT2 and an IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED PMU (PMUVer 0b1111),
__init_el2_fgt2 sets the PMUv3p9 bits in HDFGRTR2_EL2 and HDFGWTR2_EL2,
which are RES0 there. The macro only checks that PMUVer is at least
PMUv3p9, and 0b1111 passes.
Exclude 0b1111 before the compare, as __init_el2_debug does.

__init_el2_fgt2() writes one mask to both HDFGRTR2_EL2 and HDFGWTR2_EL2.
PMZR_EL0 is write-only, so its trap bit, nPMZR_EL0, exists only in
HDFGWTR2_EL2 and is therefore never set: a PMZR_EL0 write from the host
traps to EL2, where the nVHE hypervisor has no handler and BUG()s. The
kernel never writes PMZR_EL0, but kernel.perf_user_access=1 has the PMU
driver set PMUSERENR_EL0.UEN for a task with a user-read event, so a
write from EL0 reaches the trap and takes the host down without a panic
message.
Accumulate the HDFGWTR2_EL2 bits separately, as __init_el2_fgt() already
does for HDFGWTR_EL2, and set nPMZR_EL0 with the other FEAT_PMUv3p9
bits.

Mapping a stack-top page via /dev/mem with PROT_NONE and then
reading that process's /proc/<pid>/cmdline triggers a spurious WARN
in ioremap_prot() through generic_access_phys():
WARNING: ./arch/arm64/include/asm/io.h:275 at generic_access_phys
Call trace:
generic_access_phys+0x1c8/0x228 (P)
__access_remote_vm+0x2b4/0x398
access_remote_vm+0x14/0x30
get_mm_cmdline+0xf8/0x2a0
proc_pid_cmdline_read+0x68/0x120
generic_access_phys() passes the protection derived from the user PTE
to ioremap_prot(). On arm64, a PROT_NONE mapping is represented by a
present-invalid PTE, so pte_present() still returns true and the
protection reaches ioremap_prot().
A PROT_NONE mapping does not have PTE_USER, causing the existing
WARN_ON_ONCE() in ioremap_prot() to fire even though this is a valid
user mapping. Execute-only mappings have the same issue and must not
be readable through this path either.
ioremap_prot() should therefore reject protection values without
PTE_USER without warning. This makes the access fail cleanly for
PROT_NONE and execute-only mappings while retaining the existing
user-protection contract.

kvm_pkvm_ioctl_allowed() WARNs when kvm_get_cap_for_kvm_ioctl() doesn't
find the ioctl number in vm_ioctl_caps[], and kvm_arch_vm_ioctl() calls
it for every number the generic code doesn't handle, so
ioctl(vm_fd, 0xdeadbeef) from userspace taints a pKVM host and panics it
under panic_on_warn. The lookup is fed userspace input: return false,
and userspace gets the -EINVAL kvm_arch_vm_ioctl() returns for that

We free the shadow S2 structures from kvm_arch_flush_shadow_all(), which
is a Bad Idea(tm). Freeing the page tables is fair game (this is what
this callback is for), but freeing the container that could still be
referenced by another part of the system is not great.
Instead, grow separate destructors that gets called when we tear the VM
down for good. From there, we can nuke both the individual MMUs as well
as the global array that points to them, safe in the knowledge that the
vcpus themselves have been destroyed already.

The nested_mmus array holds the shadow page tables that are used when
a guest is running a nested context. These structures are allocated on
VCPU_INIT for whole guest, which implies that they may have to be
relocated as the array grows.
Should a VCPU_INIT occur whilst a vcpu is actively running an L2 and
that the allocation requires relocation, that vcpu will still be
running with a pointer to the previous structure, which will have been
freed.
Fix this by turning the array of structures to an array of pointers,
which is now allocated at VM creation, sized to the absolute maximum
that KVM can handle.
In turn, each VCPU_INIT contributes S2_MMU_PER_VCPU to the pool. No
reallocation is ever performed, and the life cycle of each object is
much clearer:
- the nested_mmus array is allocated in kvm_init_nested(), and freed
in kvm_arch_destroy_vm()
- s2_mmu structures are allocated in kvm_vcpu_init_nested(), and freed
on kvm_arch_flush_shadow_all()
Finally, the freeing of vcpu->arch.vncr_array is made consistent
rather than being done on some failure paths, but not others.

The assembly for __percpu_##name##_case_##sz() and
__percpu_##name##_return_case_##sz() doesn't use the 'sfx' macro
argument to form the LSE instruction. Without 'sfx', a W register
argument will imply a 32-bit memory location, and consequently
{8,16}-bit ops will erroneously read and write 32 bits of memory when
the LSE instruction is used.
Fix this by appending 'sfx' to 'op_lse' to LSE instruction. It is not
necessary (and not valid) to append 'sfx' to 'op_llsc', as 'op_llsc' is
a register-register operation which does not access memory (and does not
take a size suffix).

The arm64 implementation of this_cpu_and(pcp, val) is built in terms of
ANDNOT operations, which requires the 'val' argument to be bitwise
negated. The bitwise negation is not implemented correctly, with two
bugs described below.
(1) The bitwise negation is performed as '~val' rather than '~(val)'.
This won't always generate the expected value when 'val' is an
expression.
For example, for this_cpu_and(pcp, 1 - 1):
* 'val' is '1 - 1' ===> (int) 0x00000000
* '~val' is '~1 - 1' ===> (int) 0xfffffffd
* '~(val)' is '~(1 - 1)' ===> (int) 0xffffffff
... and thus bit[1] of 'pcp' would be preserved unexpectedly by the
ANDNOT operation.
(2) The bitwise negation is performed on 'val' before it has been cast
to (at least) the width of 'pcp'. This won't always generate the
expected value for the upper bits.
For example, for this_cpu_and(pcp, zero), where 'pcp' is a u64 and
'zero' is a u32:
* 'zero' ===> (u32) 0x00000000
* '~(zero)' ===> (u32) 0xffffffff
* '(u64)~(zero)' ===> (u64) 0x00000000ffffffff
* '~((u64)(zero))' ===> (u64) 0xffffffffffffffff
... and thus bits[63:32] of 'pcp' would be preserved unexpectedly by
the ANDNOT operation.
Fix these issues by adding brackets around 'val', and by casting 'val'
to an appropriately-sized type before bitwise negation.

The arm64 implementation of this_cpu_write() casts 'val' to unsigned
long. This is necessary to handle cases where 'val' is a pointer type,
and to avoid spurious compiler warnings for the (unreachable!) cases
where the pointer type would be cast to a smaller integer type.
Unfortunately, the cast is applied to 'val' rather than '(val)', which
won't always generate the expected value when 'val' is an expression.
For example, for this_cpu_write(pcp, zero - 1), where 'pcp' is a u64 and
'zero' is a u32:
* 'zero' ===> (u32) 0x00000000
* 'zero - 1' ===> (u32) 0xffffffff
* '(unsigned long)zero - 1' ===> (u64) 0xffffffffffffffff
* '(unsigned long)(zero - 1)' ===> (u64) 0x00000000ffffffff
Fix this by adding brackets around 'val'.

__cpuinfo_store_cpu() gates the GMID_EL1 read on the raw
ID_AA64PFR1_EL1, so it reads the register even when the kernel has
disabled MTE (CONFIG_ARM64_MTE=n or arm64.nomte). KVM sets HCR_EL2.TID5
in that case, and pKVM injects an UNDEF the host cannot handle:
Internal error: Oops - Undefined instruction: 0000000002000000 [#1] SMP
pc : __cpuinfo_store_cpu+0xf4/0x264
Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill the idle task!
Only pKVM reaches it, and only after a CPU is offlined and brought back
online: its CPU_ON relay sets the host HCR before the CPU enters EL1,
while plain nVHE sets it at CPUHP_AP_KVM_ONLINE.
Gate the read on the CPU's own ID_AA64PFR1_EL1 with the command-line
override applied, and on CONFIG_ARM64_MTE, which no register reflects.
The boot CPU stores its registers before init_cpu_features() strips an
unsafe override, so clamp against the hardware value here too.

Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"ARM64:
- Add support for 'slot' based PMU events, paired with new UAPI that
compels the user to select a specific PMU implementation
- Lazy save/restore of vCPU state for pKVM, along with various fixes
and cleanups to the management of vCPU state between the untrusted
host and pKVM hypervisor
- Disable traps of EL1 registers for nested hypervisors when
FEAT_NV2p1 is present, guaranteeing that EL2-specific register bits
are stateful in the EL1 counterpart
- Leverage FEAT_NV3 to avoid unnecessary ERET/TLBI traps when the
scope of those instructions remains 'in host' (i.e. L1
kernel/userspace)
- Pile of fixes for the management of the VNCR pseudo-TLB, such as
under-invalidations and races with concurrent TLBIs on other vCPUs
- Consolidate the non-protected and pKVM view of ICH_VTR_EL2 to a
runtime-patched constant, allowing the same data to be shared with
pKVM prior to dropping host privileges
- Considerable pile of LLM-assisted fixes around the shop but mostly
in the VGIC, our in-kernel generator of bugs (and sometimes
interrupts)
LoongArch:
- Advertise already-supported capabilities
- Some bug fixes about timer and MMIO
- Some hardening about interrupt injection
- Replace kvm_err() with kvm_pr_unimpl()
- Add FPU/LSX/LASX test cases for selftests
RISC-V:
- Svadu/Zicfiss/Zicfilp FWFT support for Guest
- Use try_cmpxchg for IMSIC MRIF RMW
- More arch-specific tracepoints in KVM RISC-V
- Eager page splitting when enabling dirty logging
- Optimize hfence request handling for SMP Guests
- Improve dirty log clearing by skipping zero bits in mask
- Guard HFENCE range loops against overflow
- CPU PM notifiers in KVM RISC-V for non-retentive idle states
- Fix kernel-mode vector context save/restore for Guest
s390:
- Fixes for vfio-ap
- Fixes for the gmap rework
- Fixes for vsie
- AI triggered fixes all over
- diag9c tracing
- code move preparation for the additional arm64 support
- enable CONTEXT_ANALYSIS
x86:
- Perform spring cleaning on x86.{c,h} and asm/kvm_host.h, by adding
regs.c (the kvm_cache_regs.h => regs.h is already applied) and
msrs.{c,h}, and moving relevant code out of x86.c
- Split kvm_mmu in three parts, respectively to describe the format
of page tables, walking the guest page tables and building the page
tables. Always use the same page table walker kvm->arch.gva_walk as
the entry point to convert a guest's virtual address, where the
previous code used two different kvm_mmu structs depending on
whether the walk included nested EPT/NPT or not. Make page fault
vmexits reuse the permission checking machinery that is used for
guest page faults. This is both a cleanup and a baby step towards
supporting XS/XU memory permissions
- Document some of the "fun" gotchas with the APIC base when creating
IRQCHIPs on x86
- Remove a defunct masterclock update from kvm_xen_shared_info_init().
It could result in incorrect kvmclock due to triggering an
unnecessary switch to/from masterclock mode
- Skip Xen runstate time updates if time has effectively gone
backwards, so that the guest doesn't report 100% steal time for
a very, very long time
- Drop KVM's runtime updates of the Xen PV timing CPUID leaf, as KVM
was updating the wrong sub-leaf, and upstream KVM will soon provide
all the information needed by userspace to populate the CPUID field
itself
- Fix a bug where KVM would walk a newly created rmap without holding
the rmap lock (or mmu_lock) during aging
- Fix a bug where aging TDP MMU SPTEs could clobber FROZEN SPTEs
- Fix a variety of #DB priority bugs
- Fix a class of races related to enabling Hyper-V emulation on a
vCPU after the vCPU is visible to the rest of KVM
- Use static calls for nested virtualization ops
- Move more KVM-internal code out of x86's kvm_host.h
- Enumerate support for a variety of Zhaoxin instructions that don't
require explicit virtualization
- Fix missing EFER validation bugs, including in the KVM_SET_SREGS*
path
- Harden kvm_vcpu_map() against double-mapping and thus leaking
references
- Misc fixes and cleanups, e.g. for largely benign syzkaller splats
x86 (Intel):
- Zero a vCPU's entry in VMX's Posted Interrupt Descriptor table used
for IPI virtualization when the vCPU is freed, to fix a
use-after-free where hardware will write to a freed vCPU's PID
- Service local TLB flushes on a failed nested VM-Enter to fix a bug
where KVM could miss a TLB on a future, successful VM-Enter with
the same L2 VPID
- Cap the maximum value shoved into the VMX Preemption Timer to
workaround an erratum that affects all existing Intel CPUs that
support CPUID 0x15
- Fix VPID virtualization bugs where KVM would fail to flush hardware
TLBs
- Harden the TDX "populate" ioctls against bad input, and to prepare
for supporting in-place private<=>shared conversion
x86 (AMD):
- Forcefully invalidate SNP VMSA pages if their backing guest_memfd
page is zapped/invalidated, e.g. due to a PUNCH_HOLE in response to
a Page-State Change request
- Remove a dying VM from the GA Log notifier list before the VM is
actually destroyed, to fix a potential use-after-free
- While FOLL_WRITE was needed in the past to trigger CoW unsharing,
nowadays FOLL_LONGTERM does that already even without FOLL_WRITE,
and in fact, get_user_pages() actually disallows FOLL_WRITE
together with FOLL_LONGTERM. So don't pass FOLL_WRITE when
registering encrypted memory regions, i.e. when pinning SEV/SEV-ES
guest memory, to fix a regression with file-backed memory
introduced by KVM's (correct) usage of long-term pins
(This was reviewed by mm maintainers; for more information, see
commit ee1a586dd1fa "KVM: SEV: Drop FOLL_WRITE for encrypted region
registration")
- Allocate full pages for SEV/SEV-ES {DE,EN}CRYPT ops on SNP-enabled
hosts to fix a data corruption issue due to the PSP driver
assigning to-be-written pages to firmware (as required by the SNP
specs)
- Unconditionally intercept ICBEP so that KVM generates the correct
guest RIP when handling an ICEBP-induced TASK_SWITCH #VMEXIT
- Harden the SNP "populate" ioctls against bad input, and to prepare
for supporting in-place private<=>shared conversion
Generic:
- Remove kvm_debugfs_dir if kvm_init() fails after creating KVM's
debugfs
- Add a per-VM bitmap to track which vCPU IDs have been "claimed" but
for which the vCPU isn't yet online, and use the bitmap to reject
duplicate IDs before calling into arch code. This allows arch code
to consume vcpu_id without having to worry about cross-vCPU
clobbering (at least s390 and x86 have had related bugs)
- Rework the so called "prepare" and "invalidate" guest_memfd hooks
to prepare for in-place private<=>shared conversion, and clean up a
few warts along the way
Selftests:
- Automatically allocate a full page for L2 guest stacks on x86
instead of requiring test-specific L1 guest code to carve out a
portion of the L1 stack for L2 usage, and to ensure the L2 stack
also adheres to the x86-64 calling convention ABI
- Add a selftest to verify {Guest,Host}-Only behavior in x86's
mediated PMU
- Clean up nested SVM's handling of GPRs on L2<=>L1 transitions,
reuse the functionality for nested VMX, and drop the ucall hack
that was fudging around the lack of GPR switching on nVMX
- Add a stress test to verify KVM doesn't clobber/drop #PF state,
e.g. CR2, across save/restore, including when L2 is active
- Add a test to verify KVM_CREATE_VM accepts exactly what is reported
by KVM_CAP_VM_TYPES
- Misc selftests fixes and cleanups
- Fix several issues with seeding the pRNG, and rework the pRNG APIs
to that the pRNG can be sanely used in host code, not just guest
code
- Add an IRQ test to validate virtual IRQ deliverty for IRQs wired up
via KVM_IRQFD + KVM_SET_GSI_ROUTING, with optional support for
triggering IRQs via writes to an assigned VFIO device
- Add syscall wrappers to assert success on a variety of pthreads and
CPU affinity APIs
- Set vCPU pthread affinity as early as possible to reduce contention
issues that were surfaced by PREEMPT_LAZY, which result in runtimes
of over a minute on large hosts, versus the expected ~5 seconds
- Rework the PMU counters test to run each testcase using a single VM
with many vCPUs for each sub-testcase, instead of using a unique VM
for each sub-testcase. This cuts the runtime by ~20x
Miscellaneous:
- MAINTAINERS updates for vfio-ap, guest_memfd, kvm-x86. Mostly
representing the status quo more accurately, but also... welcome
David Hildenbrand as guest_memfd reviewer!"

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kvmarm/kvmarm into HEAD
KVM/arm64 changes for 7.3
- Add support for 'slot' based PMU events, paired with new UAPI that
compels the user to select a specific PMU implementation
- Lazy save/restore of vCPU state for pKVM, along with various fixes
and cleanups to the management of vCPU state between the untrusted
host and pKVM hypervisor
- Disable traps of EL1 registers for nested hypervisors when FEAT_NV2p1
is present, guaranteeing that EL2-specific register bits are stateful
in the EL1 counterpart
- Leverage FEAT_NV3 to avoid unnecessary ERET/TLBI traps when the scope
of those instructions remains 'in host' (i.e. L1 kernel/userspace)
- Pile of fixes for the management of the VNCR pseudo-TLB, such as
under-invalidations and races with concurrent TLBIs on other vCPUs
- Consolidate the non-protected and pKVM view of ICH_VTR_EL2 to a
runtime-patched constant, allowing the same data to be shared with
pKVM prior to dropping host privileges
- Considerable pile of LLM-assisted fixes around the shop but mostly in
the VGIC, our in-kernel generator of bugs (and sometimes interrupts)

SCTLR_EL1.TCSO0 is set when user opt-in for MTE store-only tag check
mode. However, it is not part of SCTLR_USER_MASK which imply that on
context switch we never clear SCTLR_EL1.TCSO0, so we are leaking that
setting into another task.
Fix that by including SCTLR_EL1_TCSO0_MASK into SCTLR_USER_MASK

note_page_flush() calls note_page() with addr == 0 and level == -1 to
dump the last row of a ptdump. addr == 0 (1 << 64 wrapped around)
renders a huge region with enormous size for address spaces with
IA bits < 64. For example the stage-2 page tables and the EFI runtime
page table.
More importantly, the last region of the address space and everything
after the address space up to 1 << 64 are merged into one row of
output. If the last region within the address space is valid, it will
appear to remain valid up to 1 << 64 with the same attributes.
Currently only the EFI runtime ptdump is affected by this, but KVM will
soon fix its stage-2 ptdump by using note_page_flush(). Here is an
example of an EFI runtime ptdump (last row):
0x0000008000000000-0x0000000000000000 17179868672G PGD
With this patch:
0x0000008000000000-0x0001000000000000 261632G PGD
To fix this, cache the end address of a ptdump in ptdump_pg_state so
note_page_flush() can call the final note_page() with the correct end
address.

silent data corruption
- "mm/damon: refactor damon_{start,stop,commit}() for simple error
handling" (SJ Park)
Refactor the DAMON core API functions to guarantee that all contexts
are fully stopped when damon_start(), damon_stop(), or damon_commit()
fail, eliminating the need for complex and error-prone caller-side
cleanup code
- "Keep tail page private zero at free and folio split" (Zi Yan)
Add checks to ensure tail_page->private is zero when freeing compound
or high-order pages and when promoting tail pages during large folio
splits. By validating these fields at free and split time, it allows
the removal of redundant private field clearing inside
prep_compound_tail()
- "mm: drop redundant lru_add_drain in anon folio reuse paths" (Barry
Song)
Eliminate redundant lru_add_drain() calls in
wp_can_reuse_anon_folio() and do_swap_page() to reduce LRU lock
contention and system overhead
By validating folio refcounts against the LRU cache before draining
and removing unnecessary drains in the swap path, it achieves up to a
30.5% reduction in drain calls during heavy swap workloads
- "mm: clean up folio LRU and swap declarations" (Jianyue Wu)
Reorganize folio LRU and swap code by relocating page-cluster state
to mm/swap_state.c, renaming mm/swap.c to mm/folio.c, and moving
MM-internal reclaim declarations into mm/internal.h.
- "userfaultfd: working set tracking for VM guest memory" (Kiryl
Shutsemau)

memory, so a VMM can identify hot pages and reclaim cold ones to
tiered or remote storage
- "mm: remove CONFIG_HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE (Part 2)" (David
Hildenbrand)
Remove the remaining pieces of CONFIG_HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE,
performing some smaller cleanups around freeing of reserved vmemmap
pages on the way.
- "mm/damon: update probe hits for runtime parameter commits" (SJ Park)
Ensure that DAMON's probe_hits attribute counter is properly updated
when monitoring intervals are changed at runtime, matching the
behavior of nr_accesses. To achieve this, it refactors and renames
existing helper functions for shared use, applies the updates to
probe_hits, and handles edge cases in damon_probe_hits_mvsum() to
maintain measurement accuracy.
- "KSM: performance optimizations for rmap_walk_ksm" (xu xin)
Resolve a severe KSM reverse-mapping performance bottleneck where
thousands of split VMAs sharing a single anon_vma cause extended lock
contention.
By adding an interval-filtering check during the rmap walk, it
reduces worst-case anon_vma lock hold times from over 500ms down to
under 2ms, preventing application freezes and latency spikes under
memory pressure.
- "mm: split a couple of headers from internal.h" (Mike Rapoport)
Split declarations related to mm_init, memblock, vmalloc and sparse
into new headers
- "KSM: use linear_page_index in collect_procs_ksm()" (xu xin)
Apply the interval tree optimization from rmap_walk_ksm() to
collect_procs_ksm() to avoid iterating over non-matching VMAs during
KSM memory error handling.
It hoists loop-invariant address initialization and restricts the
anon_vma_interval_tree_foreach walk to a targeted page offset range,
reducing redundant checks and improving lookup efficiency.
- "selftests/mm: avoid false failures in hugetlb and KSM tests" (Sayali
Patil)
Fix issues in the hugetlb and KSM MM selftest categories that can
report failures when the prerequisites for the tests are not
satisfied
- "mm/damon: introduce data attributes only monitoring" (SJ Park)
Introduce attribute-weighted region management in DAMON, allowing
users to prioritize specific data attributes (such as page sizes or
cgroups) over or instead of access monitoring.
By assigning weights to attribute probes, DAMON can completely
disable access tracking and adjust monitoring regions based on
weighted probe-hit counters to optimize monitoring quality for
attribute-focused workloads.
- "mm/hmm: Add mmap lock-drop support for userfaultfd-backed mappings"
(Stanislav Kinsburskii)
Extend hmm_range_fault() to support userfaultfd-backed regions by
allowing the mmap lock to be dropped during fault handling via a new
hmm_range_fault_locked() helper.
By accepting a locked pointer and signaling retry status when lock
release occurs, it enables page fault resolution in userfaultfd
regions while preserving backward compatibility for existing callers.
- "mm: make VMA page offset handling more consistent" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
Clean up and standardize how vma->vm_pgoff is accessed and
manipulated across file-backed and anonymous mappings in the kernel
It introduces dedicated helper functions such as vma_start_pgoff(),
vma_end_pgoff(), vma_set_pgoff() and linear_page_delta() while
renaming rmap interval tree helpers to better reflect their
functionality.
These changes establish a cleaner foundation for future work that
will unify virtual page offset indexing for all anonymous and CoW'd
folios.
- "mm: handle device-private PMDs in walk callbacks" (Usama Arif)
Address kernel panics and state corruption caused by MM walk
callbacks reaching non-present device-private PMD swap entries
created during HMM migrations
It ensures that functions which acquire pmd_trans_huge_lock()
properly recognize device-private PMDs instead of assuming a present
THP or a standard migration entry.
- "mm/rmap: Refactor try_to_unmap_one" (Dev Jain)
Refactor try_to_unmap_one by modularizing Hugetlb,
anonymous-lazyfree, and anonymous-swapbacked logic into dedicated
functions, laying the structural groundwork for batched anonymous
large folio unmapping.
- "Docs/ABI/damon: sysfs ABI document fixes and additions" (Song Hu)
Fix typos and fills in missing entries in the DAMON sysfs ABI
document
- "dax/kmem: atomic whole-device hotplug via sysfs" (Gregory Price)
Introduce an atomic sysfs state attribute and supporting DAX/MM
infrastructure to prevent userland races when offlining and removing
entire memory regions
By adding an unplugged state alongside standard online modes, it
enables whole-device atomic hotplug control while preserving backward
compatibility.
- "mm: convert more vm_flags_t users to vma_flags_t" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
Continue transitioning the kernel from the deprecated vm_flags_t type
to vma_flags_t across core memory management infrastructure.
It replaces legacy type usage in core functions such as do_mmap(),
unmapped area allocation, mm->def_vma_flags, and VMA operations like
mlock, mprotect, and mremap.
- "Two small patches to clean up mm/mm_slot.h" (xu xin)
Refactor mm_slot.h by introducing mm_slot_remove() to unify duplicate
slot deletion sequences in khugepaged and KSM. It also adds code
documentation explaining why mm_slot_lookup and mm_slot_insert must
remain as preprocessor macros rather than static inline functions.
- "mm/damon/core: hide core-private struct fields" (SJ Park)
Clean up DAMON core structures by consistently marking internal-only
fields with private: comment tags to prevent improper direct access
from outer layers.
It enforces encapsulation across core structures including
damon_region, damon_target, and damon_ctx and updates DAMON_SYSFS to
interact through approved access APIs instead of exposing raw struct
members.
- "mm/damon: unurgent fixes for infinite loop, NULL de-ref and races"
(SJ Park)
Address potential infinite loops, NULL dereferences, and race
conditions identified in DAMON
It fixes an infinite loop triggered by extreme user configurations, a
NULL pointer dereference within unit tests and minor monitoring
accuracy degradation caused by subtle runtime races.
- "mm/page_alloc: fixes for free_pages_nolock() on RT/UP" (Brendan
Jackman)
Fix an NMI safety flaw in __free_frozen_pages() where freeing pages
on non-SMP or PREEMPT_RT kernels can bypass can_spin_trylock() checks
via non-PCP or isolated migration paths.
It also resolves potential kernel crashes and privilege escalation
risks triggered when BPF tracing runs in NMI context alongside memory
hotplug or large allocation frees.
- "mm/page_alloc: couple of followups for recent cleanups" (Brendan
Jackman)
Clean up and update page allocator nomenclature, documentation, and
debug assertions.
It aligns internal FPI_ flags with the public "nolock" naming
convention, removes outdated internal implementation details from
high-level page allocator comments, and eliminates obsolete
VM_BUG_ON() assertions in allocation paths.
- "mm/mseal: further cleanups" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
Refactor and simplify the mseal implementation by clarifying API
boundaries and removing unnecessary code complexity.
It replaces generic do_mseal() usage outside the syscall with a
dedicated mseal_mmap_page_zero() helper for MMAP_PAGE_ZERO,
eliminates mm_struct parameters to enforce that sealing applies only
to current->mm, and streamlines overall logic and comments with no
functional changes intended.
- "mm/vmscan: fix swappiness=max and clean up per-node proactive
reclaim" (Ridong Chen)
Resolve reclaim behavior bugs and clean up function parameters across
memory reclaim paths
It fixes swappiness=max in both standard reclaim and MGLRU so
unswappable anonymous memory no longer falls back to evicting page
cache, ensures reclaim_store() returns accurate error codes instead
of collapsing all failures into -EAGAIN, and removes the obsolete
gfp_mask parameter from __node_reclaim().
- "mm: mincore: misc cleanups" (Kefeng Wang)
Clean up and simplifies the mincore code. Most importantly, it
removes the historical special behavior that always reports VM_PFNMAP
pages as non-resident.
- "mm/huge_memory: drop dead split helper variants" (Kiryl Shutsemau)
Two trivial cleanups in the folio split API
- "mm/damon: fix uninitialized DAMOS field and kunit exec expectation
bugs" (SJ Park)
Resolve minor operational and testing bugs in DAMON identified by
Sashiko. It initializes the damos->last_applied field to prevent
occasional efficiency degradation and fixes invalid memory accesses
in DAMON KUnit tests during test failure handling.
- "cleanup for stable_page_flags()" (Jinjiang Tu)
Clean up and refactor stable_page_flags() used by /proc/kpageflags
without altering functionality.
It uses BIT_ULL() to prevent shift-overflow warnings on 64-bit flag
bits, converts folio-specific flag checks to standard folio_test_*()
helpers, and removes redundant CONFIG_PAGE_IDLE_FLAG handling.
- "Batch unmap of uffd-wp file folios" (Dev Jain)
Extend batched folio unmapping support to file folios within
userfaultfd write-protect (uffd-wp) VMAs by adding batching
capabilities to pte_install_uffd_wp_if_needed().
This removes special-case restrictions on uffd-wp VMAs in
try_to_unmap_one(), significantly simplifying the function's control
flow and complexity.
- "mm/early_ioremap: clarify and clean up early_ioremap_reset()"
(Sang-Heon Jeon)
Clarify and clean up the architecture-specific usage of
__late_set_fixmap() and __late_clear_fixmap() after
early_ioremap_reset()
It adds explicit documentation regarding when early_ioremap_reset()
must be called and removes redundant macro definitions and reset
calls in the RI |
