dql: Fix dql->limit value when reset.
Executing dql_reset after setting a non-zero value for limit_min can lead to an unreasonable situation where dql->limit is less than dql->limit_min. For instance, after setting /sys/class/net/eth*/queues/tx-0/byte_queue_limits/limit_min, an ifconfig down/up operation might cause the ethernet driver to call netdev_tx_reset_queue, which in turn invokes dql_reset. In this case, dql->limit is reset to 0 while dql->limit_min remains non-zero value, which is unexpected. The limit should always be greater than or equal to limit_min.

mm: decline to manipulate the refcount on a slab page
Slab pages now have a refcount of 0, so nobody should be trying to
manipulate the refcount on them. Doing so has little effect; the object
could be freed and reallocated to a different purpose, although the slab
itself would not be until the refcount was put making it behave rather
like TYPESAFE_BY_RCU.
Unfortunately, __iov_iter_get_pages_alloc() does take a refcount. Fix
that to not change the refcount, and make put_page() silently not change
the refcount. get_page() warns so that we can fix any other callers that
need to be changed.
Long-term, networking needs to stop taking a refcount on the pages that it
uses and rely on the caller to hold whatever references are necessary to
make the memory stable. In the medium term, more page types are going to
hav a zero refcount, so we'll want to move get_page() and put_page() out
of line.

net: move aRFS rmap management and CPU affinity to core
A common task for most drivers is to remember the user-set CPU affinity
to its IRQs. On each netdev reset, the driver should re-assign the user's
settings to the IRQs. Unify this task across all drivers by moving the CPU
affinity to napi->config.
However, to move the CPU affinity to core, we also need to move aRFS
rmap management since aRFS uses its own IRQ notifiers.
For the aRFS, add a new netdev flag "rx_cpu_rmap_auto". Drivers supporting
aRFS should set the flag via netif_enable_cpu_rmap() and core will allocate
and manage the aRFS rmaps. Freeing the rmap is also done by core when the
netdev is freed. For better IRQ affinity management, move the IRQ rmap
notifier inside the napi_struct and add new notify.notify and
notify.release functions: netif_irq_cpu_rmap_notify() and
netif_napi_affinity_release().
Now we have the aRFS rmap management in core, add CPU affinity mask to
napi_config. To delegate the CPU affinity management to the core, drivers
must:
1 - set the new netdev flag "irq_affinity_auto":
netif_enable_irq_affinity(netdev)
2 - create the napi with persistent config:
netif_napi_add_config()
3 - bind an IRQ to the napi instance: netif_napi_set_irq()
the core will then make sure to use re-assign affinity to the napi's
IRQ.
The default IRQ mask is set to one cpu starting from the closest NUMA.

In case CONFIG_XARRAY_MULTI is not defined, xa_store_order can store a

entry when CONFIG_XARRAY_MULTI is disabled to fix the failure.

stackinit: Add union initialization to selftests
The stack initialization selftests were checking scalars, strings,
and structs, but not unions. Add union tests (which are mostly identical
setup to structs). This catches the recent union initialization behavioral
changes seen in GCC 15. Before GCC 15, this new test passes:
ok 18 test_small_start_old_zero
With GCC 15, it fails:
not ok 18 test_small_start_old_zero
Specifically, a union with a larger member where a smaller member is
initialized with the older "= { 0 }" syntax:
union test_small_start {
char one:1;
char two;
short three;
unsigned long four;
struct big_struct {
unsigned long array[8];
} big;
};
This is a regression in compiler behavior that Linux has depended on.
GCC does not seem likely to fix it, instead suggesting that affected
projects start using -fzero-init-padding-bits=unions:

lib/crc: simplify the kconfig options for CRC implementations
Make the following simplifications to the kconfig options for choosing CRC implementations for CRC32 and CRC_T10DIF: 1. Make the option to disable the arch-optimized code be visible only when CONFIG_EXPERT=y. 2. Make a single option control the inclusion of the arch-optimized code for all enabled CRC variants. 3. Make CRC32_SARWATE (a.k.a. slice-by-1 or byte-by-byte) be the only generic CRC32 implementation. The result is there is now just one option, CRC_OPTIMIZATIONS, which is default y and can be disabled only when CONFIG_EXPERT=y. Rationale: 1. Enabling the arch-optimized code is nearly always the right choice. However, people trying to build the tiniest kernel possible would find some use in disabling it. Anything we add to CRC32 is de facto unconditional, given that CRC32 gets selected by something in nearly all kernels. And unfortunately enabling the arch CRC code does not eliminate the need to build the generic CRC code into the kernel too, due to CPU feature dependencies. The size of the arch CRC code will also increase slightly over time as more CRC variants get added and more implementations targeting different instruction set extensions get added. Thus, it seems worthwhile to still provide an option to disable it, but it should be considered an expert-level tweak. 2. Considering the use case described in (1), there doesn't seem to be sufficient value in making the arch-optimized CRC code be independently configurable for different CRC variants. Note also that multiple variants were already grouped together, e.g. CONFIG_CRC32 actually enables three different variants of CRC32. 3. The bit-by-bit implementation is uselessly slow, whereas slice-by-n for n=4 and n=8 use tables that are inconveniently large: 4096 bytes and 8192 bytes respectively, compared to 1024 bytes for n=1. Higher n gives higher instruction-level parallelism, so higher n easily wins on traditional microbenchmarks on most CPUs. However, the larger tables, which are accessed randomly, can be harmful in real-world situations where the dcache may be cold or useful data may need be evicted from the dcache. Meanwhile, today most architectures have much faster CRC32 implementations using dedicated CRC32 instructions or carryless multiplication instructions anyway, which make the generic code obsolete in most cases especially on long messages. Another reason for going with n=1 is that this is already what is used by all the other CRC variants in the kernel. CRC32 was unique in having support for larger tables. But as per the above this can be considered an outdated optimization. The standardization on slice-by-1 a.k.a. CRC32_SARWATE makes much of the code in lib/crc32.c unused. A later patch will clean that up. Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250123212904.118683-2-ebiggers@kernel.org Reviewed-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Martin K.

ref = 0 (via rcuref_init(ref, 1))
T1 T2
rcuref_put(ref)
-> atomic_add_negative_release(-1, ref) # ref -> 0xffffffff
-> rcuref_put_slowpath(ref)
rcuref_get(ref)
-> atomic_add_negative_relaxed(1, &ref->refcnt)
-> return true; # ref -> 0
rcuref_put(ref)
-> atomic_add_negative_release(-1, ref) # ref -> 0xffffffff
-> rcuref_put_slowpath()
-> cnt = atomic_read(&ref->refcnt); # cnt -> 0xffffffff / RCUREF_NOREF
-> atomic_try_cmpxchg_release(&ref->refcnt, &cnt, RCUREF_DEAD)) # ref -> 0xe0000000 / RCUREF_DEAD
-> return true
-> cnt = atomic_read(&ref->refcnt); # cnt -> 0xe0000000 / RCUREF_DEAD
-> if (cnt > RCUREF_RELEASED) # 0xe0000000 > 0xc0000000
-> WARN_ONCE(cnt >= RCUREF_RELEASED, "rcuref - imbalanced put()")
The problem is the additional read in the slow path (after it
decremented to RCUREF_NOREF) which can happen after the counter has been
marked RCUREF_DEAD.
Prevent this by reusing the return value of the decrement. Now every "final"
put uses RCUREF_NOREF in the slow path and attempts the final cmpxchg() to
RCUREF_DEAD.

Driver core and debugfs updates
Here is the big set of driver core and debugfs updates for 6.14-rc1.
It's coming late in the merge cycle as there are a number of merge
conflicts with your tree now, and I wanted to make sure they were
working properly. To resolve them, look in linux-next, and I will send
the "fixup" patch as a response to the pull request.
Included in here is a bunch of driver core, PCI, OF, and platform rust
bindings (all acked by the different subsystem maintainers), hence the
merge conflict with the rust tree, and some driver core api updates to
mark things as const, which will also require some fixups due to new
stuff coming in through other trees in this merge window.
There are also a bunch of debugfs updates from Al, and there is at least
one user that does have a regression with these, but Al is working on
tracking down the fix for it. In my use (and everyone else's linux-next
use), it does not seem like a big issue at the moment.
Here's a short list of the things in here:
- driver core bindings for PCI, platform, OF, and some i/o functions.
We are almost at the "write a real driver in rust" stage now,
depending on what you want to do.
- misc device rust bindings and a sample driver to show how to use
them
- debugfs cleanups in the fs as well as the users of the fs api for
places where drivers got it wrong or were unnecessarily doing things
in complex ways.
- driver core const work, making more of the api take const * for
different parameters to make the rust bindings easier overall.
- other small fixes and updates
All of these have been in linux-next with all of the aforementioned
merge conflicts, and the one debugfs issue, which looks to be resolved
"soon".

treewide: const qualify ctl_tables where applicable
Add the const qualifier to all the ctl_tables in the tree except for
watchdog_hardlockup_sysctl, memory_allocation_profiling_sysctls,
loadpin_sysctl_table and the ones calling register_net_sysctl (./net,
drivers/inifiniband dirs). These are special cases as they use a
registration function with a non-const qualified ctl_table argument or
modify the arrays before passing them on to the registration function.
Constifying ctl_table structs will prevent the modification of
proc_handler function pointers as the arrays would reside in .rodata.
This is made possible after commit

Char/Misc/IIO driver updates for 6.14-rc1
Here is the "big" set of char/misc/iio and other smaller driver
subsystem updates for 6.14-rc1. Loads of different things in here this
development cycle, highlights are:
- ntsync "driver" to handle Windows locking types enabling Wine to
work much better on many workloads (i.e. games). The driver
framework was in 6.13, but now it's enabled and fully working
properly. Should make many SteamOS users happy. Even comes with
tests!
- Large IIO driver updates and bugfixes
- FPGA driver updates
- Coresight driver updates
- MHI driver updates
- PPS driver updatesa
- const bin_attribute reworking for many drivers
- binder driver updates
- smaller driver updates and fixes
All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
issues.

The various patchsets are summarized below. Plus of course many
indivudual patches which are described in their changelogs. - "Allocate and free frozen pages" from Matthew Wilcox reorganizes the page allocator so we end up with the ability to allocate and free zero-refcount pages. So that callers (ie, slab) can avoid a refcount inc & dec. - "Support large folios for tmpfs" from Baolin Wang teaches tmpfs to use large folios other than PMD-sized ones. - "Fix mm/rodata_test" from Petr Tesarik performs some maintenance and fixes for this small built-in kernel selftest. - "mas_anode_descend() related cleanup" from Wei Yang tidies up part of the mapletree code. - "mm: fix format issues and param types" from Keren Sun implements a few minor code cleanups. - "simplify split calculation" from Wei Yang provides a few fixes and a test for the mapletree code. - "mm/vma: make more mmap logic userland testable" from Lorenzo Stoakes continues the work of moving vma-related code into the (relatively) new mm/vma.c. - "mm/page_alloc: gfp flags cleanups for alloc_contig_*()" from David Hildenbrand cleans up and rationalizes handling of gfp flags in the page allocator. - "readahead: Reintroduce fix for improper RA window sizing" from Jan Kara is a second attempt at fixing a readahead window sizing issue. It should reduce the amount of unnecessary reading. - "synchronously scan and reclaim empty user PTE pages" from Qi Zheng addresses an issue where "huge" amounts of pte pagetables are accumulated (https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/cover.1718267194.git.zhengqi.arch@bytedance.com/). Qi's series addresses this windup by synchronously freeing PTE memory within the context of madvise(MADV_DONTNEED). - "selftest/mm: Remove warnings found by adding compiler flags" from Muhammad Usama Anjum fixes some build warnings in the selftests code when optional compiler warnings are enabled. - "mm: don't use __GFP_HARDWALL when migrating remote pages" from David Hildenbrand tightens the allocator's observance of __GFP_HARDWALL. - "pkeys kselftests improvements" from Kevin Brodsky implements various fixes and cleanups in the MM selftests code, mainly pertaining to the pkeys tests. - "mm/damon: add sample modules" from SeongJae Park enhances DAMON to estimate application working set size. - "memcg/hugetlb: Rework memcg hugetlb charging" from Joshua Hahn provides some cleanups to memcg's hugetlb charging logic. - "mm/swap_cgroup: remove global swap cgroup lock" from Kairui Song removes the global swap cgroup lock. A speedup of 10% for a tmpfs-based kernel build was demonstrated. - "zram: split page type read/write handling" from Sergey Senozhatsky has several fixes and cleaups for zram in the area of zram_write_page(). A watchdog softlockup warning was eliminated. - "move pagetable_*_dtor() to __tlb_remove_table()" from Kevin Brodsky cleans up the pagetable destructor implementations. A rare use-after-free race is fixed. - "mm/debug: introduce and use VM_WARN_ON_VMG()" from Lorenzo Stoakes simplifies and cleans up the debugging code in the VMA merging logic. - "Account page tables at all levels" from Kevin Brodsky cleans up and regularizes the pagetable ctor/dtor handling. This results in improvements in accounting accuracy. - "mm/damon: replace most damon_callback usages in sysfs with new core functions" from SeongJae Park cleans up and generalizes DAMON's sysfs file interface logic. - "mm/damon: enable page level properties based monitoring" from SeongJae Park increases the amount of information which is presented in response to DAMOS actions. - "mm/damon: remove DAMON debugfs interface" from SeongJae Park removes DAMON's long-deprecated debugfs interfaces. Thus the migration to sysfs is completed. - "mm/hugetlb: Refactor hugetlb allocation resv accounting" from Peter Xu cleans up and generalizes the hugetlb reservation accounting. - "mm: alloc_pages_bulk: small API refactor" from Luiz Capitulino removes a never-used feature of the alloc_pages_bulk() interface. - "mm/damon: extend DAMOS filters for inclusion" from SeongJae Park extends DAMOS filters to support not only exclusion (rejecting), but also inclusion (allowing) behavior. - "Add zpdesc memory descriptor for zswap.zpool" from Alex Shi "introduces a new memory descriptor for zswap.zpool that currently overlaps with struct page for now. This is part of the effort to reduce the size of struct page and to enable dynamic allocation of memory descriptors." - "mm, swap: rework of swap allocator locks" from Kairui Song redoes and simplifies the swap allocator locking. A speedup of 400% was demonstrated for one workload. As was a 35% reduction for kernel build time with swap-on-zram. - "mm: update mips to use do_mmap(), make mmap_region() internal" from Lorenzo Stoakes reworks MIPS's use of mmap_region() so that mmap_region() can be made MM-internal. - "mm/mglru: performance optimizations" from Yu Zhao fixes a few MGLRU regressions and otherwise improves MGLRU performance. - "Docs/mm/damon: add tuning guide and misc updates" from SeongJae Park updates DAMON documentation. - "Cleanup for memfd_create()" from Isaac Manjarres does that thing. - "mm: hugetlb+THP folio and migration cleanups" from David Hildenbrand provides various cleanups in the areas of hugetlb folios, THP folios and migration. - "Uncached buffered IO" from Jens Axboe implements the new RWF_DONTCACHE flag which provides synchronous dropbehind for pagecache reading and writing. To permite userspace to address issues with massive buildup of useless pagecache when reading/writing fast devices. - "selftests/mm: virtual_address_range: Reduce memory" from Thomas Weißschuh fixes and optimizes some of the MM selftests. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iHUEABYKAB0WIQTTMBEPP41GrTpTJgfdBJ7gKXxAjgUCZ5a+cwAKCRDdBJ7gKXxA jtoyAP9R58oaOKPJuTizEKKXvh/RpMyD6sYcz/uPpnf+cKTZxQEAqfVznfWlw/Lz uC3KRZYhmd5YrxU4o+qjbzp9XWX/xAE= =Ib2s -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'mm-stable-2025-01-26-14-59' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton: "The various patchsets are summarized below.

mm/memblock: add memblock_alloc_or_panic interface
Before SLUB initialization, various subsystems used memblock_alloc to allocate memory. In most cases, when memory allocation fails, an immediate panic is required. To simplify this behavior and reduce repetitive checks, introduce `memblock_alloc_or_panic`. This function ensures that memory allocation failures result in a panic automatically, improving code readability and consistency across subsystems that require this behavior. [guoweikang.kernel@gmail.com: arch/s390: save_area_alloc default failure behavior changed to panic] Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20250109033136.2845676-1-guoweikang.kernel@gmail.com Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/Z2fknmnNtiZbCc7x@kernel.org/ Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20250102072528.650926-1-guoweikang.kernel@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Guo Weikang <guoweikang.kernel@gmail.com> Acked-by: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert@linux-m68k.org> [m68k] Reviewed-by: Alexander Gordeev <agordeev@linux.ibm.com> [s390] Acked-by: Mike Rapoport (Microsoft) <rppt@kernel.org> Cc: Alexander Gordeev <agordeev@linux.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> |

alloc_tag: avoid current->alloc_tag manipulations when profiling is disabled
When memory allocation profiling is disabled there is no need to update
current->alloc_tag and these manipulations add unnecessary overhead. Fix
the overhead by skipping these extra updates.
I ran comprehensive testing on Pixel 6 on Big, Medium and Little cores:
Overhead before fixes Overhead after fixes
slab alloc page alloc slab alloc page alloc
Big 6.21% 5.32% 3.31% 4.93%
Medium 4.51% 5.05% 3.79% 4.39%
Little 7.62% 1.82% 6.68% 1.02%
This is an allocation microbenchmark doing allocations in a tight loop.
Not a really realistic scenario and useful only to make performance
comparisons.

mm: alloc_pages_bulk: rename API
The previous commit removed the page_list argument from alloc_pages_bulk_noprof() along with the alloc_pages_bulk_list() function. Now that only the *_array() flavour of the API remains, we can do the following renaming (along with the _noprof() ones): alloc_pages_bulk_array -> alloc_pages_bulk alloc_pages_bulk_array_mempolicy -> alloc_pages_bulk_mempolicy alloc_pages_bulk_array_node -> alloc_pages_bulk_node Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/275a3bbc0be20fbe9002297d60045e67ab3d4ada.1734991165.git.luizcap@redhat.com Signed-off-by: Luiz Capitulino <luizcap@redhat.com> Acked-by: David Hildenbrand <david@redhat.com> Cc: Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) <willy@infradead.org> Cc: Mel Gorman <mgorman@techsingularity.net> Cc: Yunsheng Lin <linyunsheng@huawei.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> |

We don't support large entries which expand two more level xa_node in split. For case "xas->xa_shift + 2 * XA_CHUNK_SHIFT == order", we also need two level of xa_node to expand. Distinguish entry as large entry in case "xas->xa_shift + 2 * XA_CHUNK_SHIFT == order". As max order of folio in pagecache (MAX_PAGECACHE_ORDER) is <= (XA_CHUNK_SHIFT * 2 - 1), this change is more likely a cleanup...

Xarray: move forward index correctly in xas_pause()
After xas_load(), xas->index could point to mid of found multi-index entry and xas->index's bits under node->shift maybe non-zero. The afterward xas_pause() will move forward xas->index with xa->node->shift with bits under node->shift un-masked and thus skip some index unexpectedly. Consider following case: Assume XA_CHUNK_SHIFT is 4. xa_store_range(xa, 16, 31, ...) xa_store(xa, 32, ...) XA_STATE(xas, xa, 17); xas_for_each(&xas,...) xas_load(&xas) /* xas->index = 17, xas->xa_offset = 1, xas->xa_node->xa_shift = 4 */ xas_pause() /* xas->index = 33, xas->xa_offset = 2, xas->xa_node->xa_shift = 4 */ As we can see, index of 32 is skipped unexpectedly. Fix this by mask bit under node->xa_shift when move forward index in xas_pause(). For now, this will not cause serious problems. Only minor problem like cachestat return less number of page status could happen.

Fix atomic64 operations on some architectures for the tracing ring buffer:
- Have emulating atomic64 use arch_spin_locks instead of raw_spin_locks
The tracing ring buffer events have a small timestamp that holds the
delta between itself and the event before it. But this can be tricky
to update when interrupts come in. It originally just set the deltas
to zero for events that interrupted the adding of another event which
made all the events in the interrupt have the same timestamp as the
event it interrupted. This was not suitable for many tools, so it
was eventually fixed. But that fix required adding an atomic64 cmpxchg
on the timestamp in cases where an event was added while another
event was in the process of being added.
Originally, for 32 bit architectures, the manipulation of the 64 bit
timestamp was done by a structure that held multiple 32bit words to hold
parts of the timestamp and a counter. But as updates to the ring buffer
were done, maintaining this became too complex and was replaced by the
atomic64 generic operations which are now used by both 64bit and 32bit
architectures. Shortly after that, it was reported that riscv32 and
other 32 bit architectures that just used the generic atomic64 were
locking up. This was because the generic atomic64 operations defined in
lib/atomic64.c uses a raw_spin_lock() to emulate an atomic64 operation.
The problem here was that raw_spin_lock() can also be traced by the
function tracer (which is commonly used for debugging raw spin locks).
Since the function tracer uses the tracing ring buffer, which now is being
traced internally, this was triggering a recursion and setting off a
warning that the spin locks were recusing.
There's no reason for the code that emulates atomic64 operations to be
using raw_spin_locks which have a lot of debugging infrastructure attached
to them (depending on the config options). Instead it should be using
the arch_spin_lock() which does not have any infrastructure attached to
them and is used by low level infrastructure like RCU locks, lockdep
and of course tracing. Using arch_spin_lock()s fixes this issue.
- Do not trace in NMI if the architecture uses emulated atomic64 operations
Another issue with using the emulated atomic64 operations that uses
spin locks to emulate the atomic64 operations is that they cannot be
used in NMI context. As an NMI can trigger while holding the atomic64
spin locks it can try to take the same lock and cause a deadlock.
Have the ring buffer fail recording events if in NMI context and the
architecture uses the emulated atomic64 operations.

Merge tag 'bpf-next-6.14' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/bpf/bpf-next
Pull bpf updates from Alexei Starovoitov:
"A smaller than usual release cycle.
The main changes are:
- Prepare selftest to run with GCC-BPF backend (Ihor Solodrai)
In addition to LLVM-BPF runs the BPF CI now runs GCC-BPF in compile
only mode. Half of the tests are failing, since support for
btf_decl_tag is still WIP, but this is a great milestone.
- Convert various samples/bpf to selftests/bpf/test_progs format
(Alexis Lothoré and Bastien Curutchet)
- Teach verifier to recognize that array lookup with constant
in-range index will always succeed (Daniel Xu)
- Cleanup migrate disable scope in BPF maps (Hou Tao)
- Fix bpf_timer destroy path in PREEMPT_RT (Hou Tao)
- Always use bpf_mem_alloc in bpf_local_storage in PREEMPT_RT (Martin
KaFai Lau)
- Refactor verifier lock support (Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi)
This is a prerequisite for upcoming resilient spin lock.
- Remove excessive 'may_goto +0' instructions in the verifier that
LLVM leaves when unrolls the loops (Yonghong Song)
- Remove unhelpful bpf_probe_write_user() warning message (Marco
Elver)
- Add fd_array_cnt attribute for prog_load command (Anton Protopopov)
This is a prerequisite for upcoming support for static_branch"

CRC updates for 6.14
- Reorganize the architecture-optimized CRC32 and CRC-T10DIF code to be directly accessible via the library API, instead of requiring the crypto API. This is much simpler and more efficient. - Convert some users such as ext4 to use the CRC32 library API instead of the crypto API. More conversions like this will come later. - Add a KUnit test that tests and benchmarks multiple CRC variants. Remove older, less-comprehensive tests that are made redundant by this. - Add an entry to MAINTAINERS for the kernel's CRC library code. I'm volunteering to maintain it. I have additional cleanups and optimizations planned for future cycles. These patches have been in linux-next since -rc1. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iIoEABYIADIWIQSacvsUNc7UX4ntmEPzXCl4vpKOKwUCZ418ZRQcZWJpZ2dlcnNA Z29vZ2xlLmNvbQAKCRDzXCl4vpKOKyJYAP9kBlpm8W9/XY6N8SpjKaXE/vKQYHQl Nobhak06Us8uJwEAkcUTymWP4IwQj5A9jgBAPRw53FQcNVKIc+01C7gRHw0= =mqSH -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'crc-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiggers/linux Pull CRC updates from Eric Biggers: - Reorganize the architecture-optimized CRC32 and CRC-T10DIF code to be directly accessible via the library API, instead of requiring the crypto API.
