TP_fast_assign() unconditionally calls udp_hdr(skb) before checking
whether the packet is UDP. Furthermore, __icmp_send() can be invoked
from paths (e.g., link failures, ARP errors, forwarding, AF_PACKET)
where skb->transport_header was never initialized (~0U).
Under CONFIG_DEBUG_NET=y, calling skb_transport_header(skb) triggers
DEBUG_NET_WARN_ON_ONCE(!skb_transport_header_was_set(skb)).
Fix this by:
1. Only parsing transport info when iph->protocol == IPPROTO_UDP.
2. Using skb_header_pointer() at skb_network_offset(skb) + (iph->ihl << 2)
to safely fetch the UDP header without assuming transport_header is set.
Fixes: db3efdcf70c7 ("net/ipv4: add tracepoint for icmp_send")

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jaegeuk/f2fs
Pull f2fs updates from Jaegeuk Kim:
"In this round, key enhancements focus on reducing inode management
memory overhead, introducing resizable tail sections with unified
pinned allocation, and boosting I/O throughput via parallel
multi-device flushes and asynchronous f2fs_write_end_io() execution.
We also add dynamic device alias reservations to allow on-the-fly
space donation from user partitions.
Alongside these features, critical bug fixes resolve folio race
conditions, lingering dirty flags, dentry and block counter leaks, and
potential deadloops in f2fs_fsync_node_pages(). Additional stability
patches address error-path handling across symlink, sync, and
rename/unlink operations, prevent pinned file fragmentation, and
correct segment migration and free section accounting in
free_segment_range.
Enhancements:
- reduce memory footprint of ino management
- support dynamic reserve/release for device aliasing
- issue multi-device flushes in parallel
- add a way to run f2fs_write_end_io() asynchronously
- support resizable tail section and unify pinned allocation
Bug fixes:
- fix to pass folio->index to f2fs_sanity_check_node_footer()
- fix folio_nr_pages() race after put in large folio invalidate
- fix to clear dirty flag on folio in error path
- accurately adjust free_sections during free_segment_range
- fix to avoid potential deadloop in f2fs_fsync_node_pages()
- fix the error path in symlink, device alias in rename/unlink,
f2fs_sync_fs
- fix to migrate all curseg types during free_segment_range
- fix to avoid pinfile fragment on fragment:{block, segment} mode
- fix valid block count leak on data block allocation failure
- fix dentry folio leak in find_in_level
- reject overlapping move range after len expansion
- fix some bugs related to file pinning, GC functions, i_size
And, the series includes a number of minor bug fixes"

silent data corruption
- "mm/damon: refactor damon_{start,stop,commit}() for simple error
handling" (SJ Park)
Refactor the DAMON core API functions to guarantee that all contexts
are fully stopped when damon_start(), damon_stop(), or damon_commit()
fail, eliminating the need for complex and error-prone caller-side
cleanup code
- "Keep tail page private zero at free and folio split" (Zi Yan)
Add checks to ensure tail_page->private is zero when freeing compound
or high-order pages and when promoting tail pages during large folio
splits. By validating these fields at free and split time, it allows
the removal of redundant private field clearing inside
prep_compound_tail()
- "mm: drop redundant lru_add_drain in anon folio reuse paths" (Barry
Song)
Eliminate redundant lru_add_drain() calls in
wp_can_reuse_anon_folio() and do_swap_page() to reduce LRU lock
contention and system overhead
By validating folio refcounts against the LRU cache before draining
and removing unnecessary drains in the swap path, it achieves up to a
30.5% reduction in drain calls during heavy swap workloads
- "mm: clean up folio LRU and swap declarations" (Jianyue Wu)
Reorganize folio LRU and swap code by relocating page-cluster state
to mm/swap_state.c, renaming mm/swap.c to mm/folio.c, and moving
MM-internal reclaim declarations into mm/internal.h.
- "userfaultfd: working set tracking for VM guest memory" (Kiryl
Shutsemau)
Add userfaultfd support for tracking the working set of VM guest
memory, so a VMM can identify hot pages and reclaim cold ones to
tiered or remote storage
- "mm: remove CONFIG_HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE (Part 2)" (David
Hildenbrand)
Remove the remaining pieces of CONFIG_HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE,
performing some smaller cleanups around freeing of reserved vmemmap
pages on the way.
- "mm/damon: update probe hits for runtime parameter commits" (SJ Park)
Ensure that DAMON's probe_hits attribute counter is properly updated
when monitoring intervals are changed at runtime, matching the
behavior of nr_accesses. To achieve this, it refactors and renames
existing helper functions for shared use, applies the updates to
probe_hits, and handles edge cases in damon_probe_hits_mvsum() to
maintain measurement accuracy.
- "KSM: performance optimizations for rmap_walk_ksm" (xu xin)
Resolve a severe KSM reverse-mapping performance bottleneck where
thousands of split VMAs sharing a single anon_vma cause extended lock
contention.
By adding an interval-filtering check during the rmap walk, it
reduces worst-case anon_vma lock hold times from over 500ms down to
under 2ms, preventing application freezes and latency spikes under
memory pressure.
- "mm: split a couple of headers from internal.h" (Mike Rapoport)
Split declarations related to mm_init, memblock, vmalloc and sparse
into new headers
- "KSM: use linear_page_index in collect_procs_ksm()" (xu xin)
Apply the interval tree optimization from rmap_walk_ksm() to
collect_procs_ksm() to avoid iterating over non-matching VMAs during
KSM memory error handling.
It hoists loop-invariant address initialization and restricts the
anon_vma_interval_tree_foreach walk to a targeted page offset range,
reducing redundant checks and improving lookup efficiency.
- "selftests/mm: avoid false failures in hugetlb and KSM tests" (Sayali
Patil)
Fix issues in the hugetlb and KSM MM selftest categories that can
report failures when the prerequisites for the tests are not
satisfied
- "mm/damon: introduce data attributes only monitoring" (SJ Park)
Introduce attribute-weighted region management in DAMON, allowing
users to prioritize specific data attributes (such as page sizes or
cgroups) over or instead of access monitoring.
By assigning weights to attribute probes, DAMON can completely
disable access tracking and adjust monitoring regions based on
weighted probe-hit counters to optimize monitoring quality for
attribute-focused workloads.
- "mm/hmm: Add mmap lock-drop support for userfaultfd-backed mappings"
(Stanislav Kinsburskii)
Extend hmm_range_fault() to support userfaultfd-backed regions by
allowing the mmap lock to be dropped during fault handling via a new
hmm_range_fault_locked() helper.
By accepting a locked pointer and signaling retry status when lock
release occurs, it enables page fault resolution in userfaultfd
regions while preserving backward compatibility for existing callers.
- "mm: make VMA page offset handling more consistent" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
Clean up and standardize how vma->vm_pgoff is accessed and
manipulated across file-backed and anonymous mappings in the kernel
It introduces dedicated helper functions such as vma_start_pgoff(),
vma_end_pgoff(), vma_set_pgoff() and linear_page_delta() while
renaming rmap interval tree helpers to better reflect their
functionality.
These changes establish a cleaner foundation for future work that
will unify virtual page offset indexing for all anonymous and CoW'd
folios.
- "mm: handle device-private PMDs in walk callbacks" (Usama Arif)
Address kernel panics and state corruption caused by MM walk
callbacks reaching non-present device-private PMD swap entries
created during HMM migrations
It ensures that functions which acquire pmd_trans_huge_lock()
properly recognize device-private PMDs instead of assuming a present
THP or a standard migration entry.
- "mm/rmap: Refactor try_to_unmap_one" (Dev Jain)
Refactor try_to_unmap_one by modularizing Hugetlb,
anonymous-lazyfree, and anonymous-swapbacked logic into dedicated
functions, laying the structural groundwork for batched anonymous
large folio unmapping.
- "Docs/ABI/damon: sysfs ABI document fixes and additions" (Song Hu)
Fix typos and fills in missing entries in the DAMON sysfs ABI
document
- "dax/kmem: atomic whole-device hotplug via sysfs" (Gregory Price)
Introduce an atomic sysfs state attribute and supporting DAX/MM
infrastructure to prevent userland races when offlining and removing
entire memory regions
By adding an unplugged state alongside standard online modes, it
enables whole-device atomic hotplug control while preserving backward
compatibility.
- "mm: convert more vm_flags_t users to vma_flags_t" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
Continue transitioning the kernel from the deprecated vm_flags_t type
to vma_flags_t across core memory management infrastructure.
It replaces legacy type usage in core functions such as do_mmap(),
unmapped area allocation, mm->def_vma_flags, and VMA operations like
mlock, mprotect, and mremap.
- "Two small patches to clean up mm/mm_slot.h" (xu xin)
Refactor mm_slot.h by introducing mm_slot_remove() to unify duplicate
slot deletion sequences in khugepaged and KSM. It also adds code
documentation explaining why mm_slot_lookup and mm_slot_insert must
remain as preprocessor macros rather than static inline functions.
- "mm/damon/core: hide core-private struct fields" (SJ Park)
Clean up DAMON core structures by consistently marking internal-only
fields with private: comment tags to prevent improper direct access
from outer layers.
It enforces encapsulation across core structures including
damon_region, damon_target, and damon_ctx and updates DAMON_SYSFS to
interact through approved access APIs instead of exposing raw struct
members.
- "mm/damon: unurgent fixes for infinite loop, NULL de-ref and races"
(SJ Park)
Address potential infinite loops, NULL dereferences, and race
conditions identified in DAMON
It fixes an infinite loop triggered by extreme user configurations, a
NULL pointer dereference within unit tests and minor monitoring
accuracy degradation caused by subtle runtime races.
- "mm/page_alloc: fixes for free_pages_nolock() on RT/UP" (Brendan
Jackman)
Fix an NMI safety flaw in __free_frozen_pages() where freeing pages
on non-SMP or PREEMPT_RT kernels can bypass can_spin_trylock() checks
via non-PCP or isolated migration paths.
It also resolves potential kernel crashes and privilege escalation
risks triggered when BPF tracing runs in NMI context alongside memory
hotplug or large allocation frees.
- "mm/page_alloc: couple of followups for recent cleanups" (Brendan
Jackman)
Clean up and update page allocator nomenclature, documentation, and
debug assertions.
It aligns internal FPI_ flags with the public "nolock" naming
convention, removes outdated internal implementation details from
high-level page allocator comments, and eliminates obsolete
VM_BUG_ON() assertions in allocation paths.
- "mm/mseal: further cleanups" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
Refactor and simplify the mseal implementation by clarifying API
boundaries and removing unnecessary code complexity.
It replaces generic do_mseal() usage outside the syscall with a
dedicated mseal_mmap_page_zero() helper for MMAP_PAGE_ZERO,
eliminates mm_struct parameters to enforce that sealing applies only
to current->mm, and streamlines overall logic and comments with no
functional changes intended.
- "mm/vmscan: fix swappiness=max and clean up per-node proactive
reclaim" (Ridong Chen)
Resolve reclaim behavior bugs and clean up function parameters across
memory reclaim paths
It fixes swappiness=max in both standard reclaim and MGLRU so
unswappable anonymous memory no longer falls back to evicting page
cache, ensures reclaim_store() returns accurate error codes instead
of collapsing all failures into -EAGAIN, and removes the obsolete
gfp_mask parameter from __node_reclaim().
- "mm: mincore: misc cleanups" (Kefeng Wang)
Clean up and simplifies the mincore code. Most importantly, it
removes the historical special behavior that always reports VM_PFNMAP
pages as non-resident.
- "mm/huge_memory: drop dead split helper variants" (Kiryl Shutsemau)
Two trivial cleanups in the folio split API
- "mm/damon: fix uninitialized DAMOS field and kunit exec expectation
bugs" (SJ Park)
Resolve minor operational and testing bugs in DAMON identified by
Sashiko. It initializes the damos->last_applied field to prevent
occasional efficiency degradation and fixes invalid memory accesses
in DAMON KUnit tests during test failure handling.
- "cleanup for stable_page_flags()" (Jinjiang Tu)
Clean up and refactor stable_page_flags() used by /proc/kpageflags
without altering functionality.
It uses BIT_ULL() to prevent shift-overflow warnings on 64-bit flag
bits, converts folio-specific flag checks to standard folio_test_*()
helpers, and removes redundant CONFIG_PAGE_IDLE_FLAG handling.
- "Batch unmap of uffd-wp file folios" (Dev Jain)
Extend batched folio unmapping support to file folios within
userfaultfd write-protect (uffd-wp) VMAs by adding batching
capabilities to pte_install_uffd_wp_if_needed().
This removes special-case restrictions on uffd-wp VMAs in
try_to_unmap_one(), significantly simplifying the function's control
flow and complexity.
- "mm/early_ioremap: clarify and clean up early_ioremap_reset()"
(Sang-Heon Jeon)
Clarify and clean up the architecture-specific usage of
__late_set_fixmap() and __late_clear_fixmap() after
early_ioremap_reset()
It adds explicit documentation regarding when early_ioremap_reset()
must be called and removes redundant macro definitions and reset
calls in the RISC-V and ARM64 architectures.
- "mm: fix reclaim storms in defrag_mode" (Johannes Weiner)
Address severe performance regressions, swap storms, and spurious
OOMs caused by vm.defrag_mode=1 under high memory pressure in Meta
production
It updates the page allocator slowpath so non-movable allocation
requests actively trigger direct reclaim and direct compaction at
pageblock_order scale, allowing them to claim whole pageblocks rather
than spinning unproductively.
- "zram: lockmap tweaks" (Sebastian Siewior)
Optimize and fix lockdep tracking for zram devices by consolidating
per-entry lockmaps and isolate lock classes across multiple instances
This reduces memory overhead by replacing per-entry lockdep_map
instances with a single map per struct zram, and assigns a dynamic
lock_class_key to each instance to prevent false deadlock reports
when different zram devices are backed by distinct filesystems.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kdave/linux
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"

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/sched_ext
Pull sched_ext updates from Tejun Heo:
"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.
Other fixes and updates:
- 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"

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
- 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
