Add explicit padding before launch_time so xsk_tx_metadata has the same
layout on 32-bit and 64-bit systems.
On several architectures (csky, i386, nios2, m65k, openrisc, sh), the old
native 32-bit layout put launch_time at offset 12 and had a natural size of
20 bytes. Using sizeof(struct xsk_tx_metadata) as tx_metadata_len was already
rejected because the length must be a multiple of eight, so the
straightforward use of the interface was broken on those ABIs. Userspace
could still register a padded length of 24 bytes, though; mixing the old and
new layouts then silently reads launch_time from the wrong offset and
misprograms packet launch times. This intentionally replaces that
incompatible layout because the affected architectures are unlikely to
have any notable users. (x86_64 and arm64 have the most users and are _not_
affected)
Fixes: ca4419f15abd ("xsk: Add launch time hardware offload support to XDP Tx metadata")

- "mm/memory-failure: add panic option for unrecoverable pages" (Breno
Leitao)
Introduce an opt-in vm.panic_on_unrecoverable_memory_failure sysctl
that immediately panics the kernel on unrecoverable memory errors in
kernel-owned pages to preserve error context and prevent delayed,
silent data corruption
- "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.

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...

Pull bpf updates from Daniel Borkmann:
"Major changes:
- Redesign the verifier error reporting: failures now carry source
and instruction annotations along with the causal event history
that led to them, making program rejections far easier to debug and
repair (Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi)
- Add arena argument support to kfuncs and struct_ops through the new
__arena and __arena__nullable suffixes (Tejun Heo, Puranjay Mohan,
Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi, Ihor Solodrai)
- Signed BPF program loader rework to accommodate both BPF and
security community needs where the kernel runs the signature
verification at BPF_PROG_LOAD time before the LSM admission hook
(Daniel Borkmann)
- Add a set of ksock kfuncs which let BPF LSM and syscall programs
create, connect and send on UDP sockets in order to emit telemetry
data (Mahe Tardy)
- Unify helper and kfunc call argument verification and classify
kfunc arguments purely from BTF into a generated bpf_func_proto
which is computed once at add-call time (Amery Hung)
Other features and fixes:
- Enable EXECMEM_ROX_CACHE for BPF allocations on x86 (Mike Rapoport)
- Add bidirectional VLAN support to bpf_fib_lookup() through the new
BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_VLAN and BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_VLAN_INPUT flags (Avinash
Duduskar)
- Infer zext_dst from static register liveness analysis to fix 32-bit
zero-extension semantics, and remove the artificial limitations on
pointer types eligible for spilling (Eduard Zingerman)
- Inline the numeric open-coded iterator kfuncs so that bpf_for()
loops no longer pay a kfunc call on every iteration (Puranjay
Mohan)
- Add an arena-based bitmap data structure to libarena along with
serial and parallel selftests (Emil Tsalapatis)
- Teach resolve_btfids to discover kfuncs from the kernel's BTF ID
sets and to emit kfunc BTF decl tags, reducing the kernel build's
dependency on pahole features (Ihor Solodrai)
- Add BPF_F_ADJ_ROOM_DECAP_* flags to bpf_skb_adjust_room() so that
tunnel decapsulation can update the GSO and encapsulation state of
the skb (Nick Hudson)
- Fix the ring buffer pending_pos walk and the available-data
accounting on 32-bit position wrap (Israel Téllez García)
- Add memory usage accounting for arena maps and fix an mmap_lock
deadlock on arena lock failure (Jiayuan Chen)
- Add tracing_multi link info support to the kernel UAPI and bpftool,
and refactor the stack map code to run with preemption disabled
(Jiri Olsa)
- Support BPF_F_EGRESS in bpf_redirect_peer() to emit the skb in the
egress direction of the target's peer device (Jordan Rife)
- Add a KF_SPINLOCK_SAFE kfunc flag so that providers, in particular
modules, can declare kfuncs safe to call under bpf_spin_lock
instead of relying on the verifier's hard-coded allowlist (Kaitao
Cheng)
- Introduce global percpu data for BPF programs with libbpf probing
and bpftool skeleton support, and stop exposing uninitialized
kernel heap memory when copying per-CPU map values (Leon Hwang)

instructions (Maxim Khmelevskii)
- Fix a CFI mismatch in the task work callback and an arm64 KASAN
false positive after bpf_throw() (Mykyta Yatsenko)
- Reject writes through untrusted BTF pointers and bound the
rdonly/rdwr_buf_size kfunc arguments (Nicholas Dudar)
- Invalidate RCU pointers only after the final spin unlock and
account for preempt and IRQ disabled regions as overlapping RCU
protection (Ning Ding)
- Support mixing bpf2bpf calls and tail calls on RV64, add signed
operations and 32-bit atomics to the RV32 JIT, and add timed
may_goto support (Pu Lehui, Kuan-Wei Chiu, Feng Jiang)
- Fix a use-after-free on mm_struct in bpf_find_vma() for foreign
tasks and an mmap_lock leak in the irq_work path (Sanghyun Park)
- Populate mmap-able BPF array map memory lazily which makes mmap()
O(1) instead of proportional to the map size (Song Liu)
- Introduce a jit_required flag and reject programs with inlined
helpers when no JIT is available, where the interpreter would
otherwise jump into an invalid address (Tiezhu Yang)
- Fix the x86 JIT per-CPU address resolution into an extended
register where the REX prefix dropped the high destination register
bit (Vineet Gupta)
- Reject MEM_ALLOC BTF accesses past object bounds, arena frees below
the arena base, and mixed arena and ordinary atomic paths (Yiyang
Chen)
- Fix the trampoline handling of 128-bit arguments and of return
values larger than 8 bytes (Yonghong Song)
- Ensure that any fault prone load is rewritten with exception table
handling, and fix the arena load-acquire and atomic fetch handling
in the x86, arm64, riscv and s390 JITs (Daniel Borkmann)

Pull fscrypt updates from Eric Biggers:
"The main change this cycle is a significant simplification that's been
overdue for a while now: standardizing on a single file contents
encryption implementation in ext4 and f2fs, instead of having two.
Specifically, the original filesystem-layer file contents encryption
implementation is removed, and the blk-crypto implementation is now
used unconditionally. blk-crypto delegates either to inline crypto
hardware or to the CPU via blk-crypto-fallback. The latter is
functionally equivalent to the original filesystem-layer code.
The blk-crypto implementation already existed, but previously it was
used only when the filesystem was mounted with "-o inlinecrypt". Now,
"-o inlinecrypt" just selects whether inline crypto hardware is used.
To allow maintaining that user control over hardware use, the
blk-crypto API is extended with a new flag BLK_CRYPTO_CFG_ALLOW_HW.
Overall, this removes quite a bit of redundant code from ext4, f2fs,
and fs/crypto/. It should make things easier for ongoing filesystem
efforts such as iomap support, large folios, and btrfs encryption
(btrfs had already been planning to use blk-crypto exclusively.)
There are two small behavior changes of note:
- Direct I/O now works on encrypted files even without "-o inlinecrypt",
rather than falling back to buffered I/O. This is effectively a
bugfix, though I'll continue to keep an eye out for any user that
may have been depending on the buffered I/O fallback.
- IV_INO_LBLK_32 policies are no longer supported in certain cases
that didn't make sense and have no known uses.
This has been in linux-next since July 22 with no reported issues. All
encryption xfstests pass on ext4 and f2fs. As usual I've also been
using it on a system with an fscrypt-encrypted home directory. Of
course, the blk-crypto code paths also aren't new and were already
being used on many systems via the inlinecrypt mount option.
In addition to the main change described above, there are a few other
cleanups such as using lock guards for mutexes, improving
documentation, and removing a workaround for outdated gcc versions"

Pull failfs filesystem from Christian Brauner:
"Add failfs and expose a FD_FAILFS_ROOT sentinel.
This allows userspace to shed their filesystem state completely. A
process with its root or working directory in failfs must anchor every
path lookup at an explicit file descriptor. Absolute paths, absolute
symlinks and AT_FDCWD-relative lookups simply fail.
Failfs is the counterpart to nullfs. nullfs says adds a permanently
empty, immutable directory whose lookups fail with ENOENT but which
can be opened, read, stat'd and mounted upon. Failfs on the other hand
fails every operation. The root cannot be opened at all. A single
instance is mounted during early boot via kern_mount(), which makes it
logically distinct from every mount namespace.
This is accompanied by a new fchroot() system call which makes
chrooting via a file descriptor a first class concept. It's possible
to chroot into failfs as an unprivileged user provided the task has no
new privileges set"

Add new bpf_skb_adjust_room() decapsulation flags:

- BPF_F_ADJ_ROOM_DECAP_L4_UDP
- BPF_F_ADJ_ROOM_DECAP_IPXIP4
- BPF_F_ADJ_ROOM_DECAP_IPXIP6
These flags let BPF programs describe which tunnel layer is being
removed, so later changes can update tunnel-related GSO state
accordingly during decapsulation.
This patch only introduces the UAPI flag definitions and helper
documentation.

Every devmem dmabuf binding today hands the page_pool PAGE_SIZE niovs.
This caps a single RX descriptor at PAGE_SIZE, burning CPU on buffer
churn for large flows.
Add a bind-time netlink attribute, NETDEV_A_DMABUF_RX_PAGE_SIZE, that
lets userspace request a larger niov size. The value must be a power of
two >= PAGE_SIZE.
The TX path is changed to always pass PAGE_SIZE.
Measurements:
Setup: kperf in devmem RX/TX cuda mode, 4 flows, 64 MB messages, 60s,
dctcp, num-rx-queues=4, dmabuf-rx/tx-size-mb=2048, 10 runs per niov
size, mlx5.
CPU Util:
niov net sirq % net idle % app sys % app idle %
----- ---------------- ---------------- ---------------- ----------------
4K 62.38 +/- 8.27 33.40 +/- 7.51 54.15 +/- 10.23 43.67 +/- 10.53

64K 54.69 +/- 5.54 39.67 +/- 5.81 35.47 +/- 3.11 61.97 +/- 3.27
RX app sys % drops ~19% from 4K to 64K.

Add the IFF_BACKPRESSURE flag to the UAPI header and to its tools/ copy.
The flag has no effect yet, it is the opt-in switch for the qdisc
backpressure logic added by the following patches.
It is added to TUN_FEATURES only in the last patch of the series, once the
implementation is complete. Until then TUNSETIFF silently masks it off, as
it does for any flag outside TUN_FEATURES.
Keeping the flag and its users in separate patches would either leave a
window where backpressure is unconditional, or make the opt-in a later
add-on. Adding the flag first lets every following patch be a no-op
unless it is set.

Coverage for UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_RWP and UFFDIO_RWPROTECT:
rwp-async async mode — touch pages, verify permissions are
auto-restored without a message
rwp-sync sync mode — access blocks, handler resolves via
UFFDIO_RWPROTECT
rwp-pagemap PAGEMAP_SCAN reports still-cold pages via
inverted PAGE_IS_ACCESSED
rwp-mprotect RWP survives mprotect(PROT_NONE) ->
mprotect(PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE) round-trip
rwp-gup GUP walks through a protnone RWP PTE (pipe
write/read drives the GUP path)
rwp-async-toggle UFFDIO_SET_MODE flips between sync and async
without re-registering
rwp-close closing the uffd restores page permissions
rwp-fork RWP survives fork() with EVENT_FORK; child's
PTEs keep the uffd bit
rwp-fork-pin RWP survives fork() on an RO-longterm-pinned
anon page (forces copy_present_page()); child
read auto-resolves and clears the bit, proving
PAGE_NONE was in place
rwp-wp-exclusive register with MODE_WP|MODE_RWP returns -EINVAL
All tests run against anon, shmem, shmem-private, hugetlb, and
hugetlb-private memory, except rwp-fork-pin which is anon-only —
copy_present_page() is the private-anon pinned-exclusive fork path.
Snapshot the RWP additions into tools/include/uapi/linux/userfaultfd.h so
the selftest builds without requiring "make headers" first, matching the
mechanism established by commit 580ea358af0a ("selftests/mm: fix
additional build errors for selftests").

PAGEMAP_SCAN already reports PAGE_IS_WRITTEN from the inverted uffd PTE
bit, targeting the UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT workflow. UFFDIO_RWPROTECT reuses
the same PTE bit as a marker for read-write protection, but "has been
written" and "has been accessed" are distinct semantic signals — they
happen to share one PTE bit today only because the two implementations
share infrastructure.
Give RWP its own pagemap category so the UAPI does not conflate them:
PAGE_IS_WRITTEN reported on VM_UFFD_WP VMAs, !pte_uffd(pte)
PAGE_IS_ACCESSED reported on VM_UFFD_RWP VMAs, !pte_uffd(pte)
Both still read the same PTE bit today, but each is scoped to the VMA
whose registered mode makes the bit meaningful. If a future
implementation moves RWP to a separate PTE bit, only PAGE_IS_ACCESSED
switches over.
This is a UAPI narrowing. Outside VM_UFFD_WP VMAs the uffd bit is always
clear, so PAGEMAP_SCAN used to flag PAGE_IS_WRITTEN on every present PTE
there — a meaningless duplicate of PAGE_IS_PRESENT. Now PAGE_IS_WRITTEN
fires only inside VM_UFFD_WP VMAs.
pagemap_hugetlb_category() now takes the vma like its PTE/PMD peers.
