Probes updates for v7.3:
- probes: Advanced BTF typecasting and variable fetch enhancements
. Typecast support across probe events: Extended BTF typecasting syntax
(e.g., (STRUCT)PARAM->MEMBER) to kprobes, uprobes, and fprobes on
function entry and return.
. Nested typecasts: Added support for chaining and nesting typecasts up
to 3 levels, including casting registers and stack variables.
. Field specifier option: Added (STRUCT,FIELD) syntax to emulate
container_of(), allowing retrieval of parent structures from member
pointers.
. $current variable support: Introduced $current special variable to
access the running task_struct via BTF dereferencing.
. Per-CPU variable access: Added this_cpu_read() and this_cpu_ptr()
fetcharg methods to trace CPU-local data safely.
. Fetcharg bytecode dumper: Added CONFIG_PROBE_EVENTS_DUMP_FETCHARG to
dump the compiled fetcharg bytecode instructions as comments in
dynamic_events.
. Extended symbol name handling: Removed the MAX_COMMON_HEAD_LEN limit
and extended MAX_ARGSTR_LEN to 256 bytes, enabling probing of long
symbols, mangled Rust symbols and complex BTF expressions.
. eprobe variable syntax: Allowed eprobes to reference event fields
directly without requiring a '$' prefix.
. Cleanup unused parameters, redundant codes, duplicate macros and
pointer arithmetic.
. Use a ternary operator for simplifying fetch_type_from_btf_type().
- bootconfig / boottime-trace: Expanded dynamic probe support
. Added boot-time tracing configuration support for event probes
(eprobes), function probes (fprobes), and tracepoint probes
(tprobes).
. ftrace2bootconfig: Allowed comment lines ('#') in dynamic_events file.
- fprobe / kprobe: Optimization, robustness, and cleanups
. fprobe: Simplified fprobe_remove_ips() by reusing graph and ftrace
helpers.
. fprobe: Removed __packed attribute from struct __fprobe_header to avoid
unaligned memory access penalties on RISC architectures.
. kprobe & fprobe: Removed redundant memset() calls in perf event probe
handlers.
. kprobes: Replaced legacy __ASSEMBLY__ with __ASSEMBLER__ in header
files.
- selftests & refactoring:
. Refactored parse_probe_arg() and parse_probe_vars(), and eliminated
recursion in probe argument parsing to protect kernel stack depth.
. Added selftests for BTF typecasts and module probing without module
prefixes.
. Forced LC_ALL=C in ftracetest to prevent test failures on localized
systems.
. Refactored btf_type_skip_modifiers() to remove ignored id parameter.
. Sorted ERRORS list in trace_probe.h alphabetically.
. Fixed typo in fprobe docs, and trace_fprobe function name.
. Renamed FETCH_OP_DATA to FETCH_OP_IMMSTR.
. Made file offset error message probe-agnostic.

VDSO updates:
- Consolidate the VDSO datastore further and provide support for
mlock_all() and prefaulting.
- Provide 32-bit legacy time related functionality only if
CONFIG_COMPAT_32BIT_TIME is enabled. The config switch exists, but
architecture code still exposes the legacy functionality even disabled.
Clean this up by adding the missing guards and validating at build time
that the VDSO is legacy free if disabled.
- Consolidate the VDSO related config options in core and drivers, which
removes some non-sensical dependencies and quite an amount of #ifdeffery.

Treewide timer related cleanups:
- Remove the leftover CLOCK_TICK_RATE which has been scheduled for
removal more than a decade ago along with some now empty asm/timex.h
files.
- Consolidate delay timer calibration
The construct of having a define in a header requires that
architectures provided asm/timex.h for no reason. Also the function
name for reading the delay timer is confusing at best.
Use a config switch to enable that functionality and rename the
function to delay_read_timer() to make the purpose clear.
This removes some more now empty asm/timex.h files as well.

Generic entry code updates:
- Make syscall user dispatching configurable
Not all architectures can makes use of syscall user dispatching. Allow
them to disable the feature completely.
- Consolidate stack randomization for the generic entry code and the
architectures using it.
Stack randomization on syscall entry was sprinkled throughout the
architecture specific low level entry code and in some cases at the
wrong points, e.g. before establishing state, which violates the
non-instrumentable constraints of that code.
Clean this up by integrating stack randomization into the generic entry
code helpers so that it is invoked at the earliest possible point right
after establishing state and converting all generic entry code using
architecture over.
- Clean up the syscall number handling in the generic entry code. It
works correctly for architectures which have a separate return value
storage in pt_regs, but fails to distinguish the case where user space
handed in -1 as syscall number from the case where the entry code
rejects it by returning -1 to the callers. Aside of that the return
value functionality of those interfaces is not really intuitive.
Fix this by separating the decision to reject a syscall (user dispatch,
ptrace, seccomp ...) from the potential modification of the syscall
number through these mechanisms.
This solves most of the problems for architectures which do not have a
separate return value storage in pt_regs except for the case where a
tracepoint has a BPF script or a probe attached which overwrite both
the syscall number and the return value. But that's a problem which
cannot be solved in the generic code, that only can be addressed by
separating the storage model in the affected architectures.

dispatch, ptrace, seccomp ...) from the potential modification of the
syscall number through these mechanisms.
This solves most of the problems for architectures which do not have
a separate return value storage in pt_regs except for the case where
a tracepoint has a BPF script or a probe attached which overwrite
both the syscall number and the return value. But that's a problem
which cannot be solved in the generic code, that only can be
addressed by separating the storage model in the affected
architectures.

vDSO: Make clockmode constants available without CONFIG_GENERIC_GETTIMEOFDAY
Some code, for example clocksource drivers, may want to use the vDSO clockmode constants even when CONFIG_GENERIC_GETTIMEOFDAY=n.

preempt: Introduce __preempt_count_{sub,add}_return()
In order to use preempt_count() to track the interrupt disable nesting
level, __preempt_count_{add,sub}_return() are introduced, as their names
suggest, these primitives return the new value of the preempt_count()
after changing it. The following example shows the usage of it in
local_interrupt_disable():
// increase the HARDIRQ_DISABLE bit
new_count = __preempt_count_add_return(HARDIRQ_DISABLE_OFFSET);
// if it's the first-time increment, then disable the interrupt
// at hardware level.
if ((new_count & HARDIRQ_DISABLE_MASK) == HARDIRQ_DISABLE_OFFSET) {
local_irq_save(flags);
raw_cpu_write(local_interrupt_disable_state, flags);
}
Having these primitives will avoid a read of preempt_count() after
changing preempt_count() on certain architectures.

locking/qspinlock: Add contended_release tracepoint
Unlike mutex and rw_semaphore, qspinlock has no owner field, so "perf
lock contention --lock-owner" cannot attribute a contended spinlock to
its holder. The waiter-side contention_begin event records that a
spinlock is contended, but not by whom. Firing contended_release in the
holder's context at unlock is the only way to capture the holder of a
contended spinlock.
Combine the contention check, trace call and release in an out-of-line
queued_spin_release_traced() so the compiler need not preserve the lock
pointer in a callee-saved register across the call.
The check in queued_spin_unlock() is paid on every unlock, even while
the tracepoint is disabled: a static-branch NOP on x86_64, and a few
more instructions to manage a stack frame elsewhere. Gate it behind
CONFIG_QUEUED_SPINLOCKS_TRACE_CONTENDED_RELEASE (default n) so nobody
pays for a tracepoint they do not use. Sleeping locks fire
contended_release regardless.
On x86 this generic path is used only with PARAVIRT_SPINLOCKS=n (e.g.
defconfig). PARAVIRT_SPINLOCKS=y kernels keep the paravirt static_call
unlock and are wired up separately.
All below are with the QUEUED_SPINLOCKS_TRACE_CONTENDED_RELEASE option
enabled.
_raw_spin_unlock(), x86_64 defconfig, GCC 11, tracepoint compiled in but
disabled. The unlock is the single 'movb'. The only instruction added to
the executed path is the 2-byte static-branch NOP. The CALL to the
traced helper and the JMP back are emitted out of line and are reached
only once the static branch is patched on:
endbr64 ; 4 bytes
xchg %ax,%ax ; 2 static-branch NOP
; (added)
movb $0x0,(%rdi) ; 3 unlock (single store)
A: decl %gs:__preempt_count ; 7
je B ; 2
jmp __x86_return_thunk ; 5
call queued_spin_release_traced ; 5 out of line, reached
; only when the
; tracepoint is on
jmp A ; 2 (added)
B: call __SCT__preempt_schedule ; 5
jmp __x86_return_thunk ; 5
Baseline is the same stream without the NOP and the out-of-line
CALL/JMP: 31 bytes vs 40 (+9 bytes).
Binary size impact on x86_64, defconfig: +680 bytes (+0.00%), since all
standard configs out-of-line unlock. Architectures with inlined unlock
(s390 (always), csky and loongarch (both when !PREEMPTION)) will see a
bigger increase in binary size.
On the same path (x86_64, PARAVIRT_SPINLOCKS=n) with the tracepoint
disabled, a _raw_spin_unlock()-heavy nginx workload [1] shows no
measurable difference between baseline and patched kernels in
throughput, latency, cycles, instructions, IPC, or L1 instruction-cache
misses (kernel and total): all deltas stay within run-to-run noise.
Unlike x86, on arm64 the frame setup code (STP, MOV and LDP) lands on
the executed path in addition to static-branch NOP. Binary size impact
on arm64, defconfig: +932 bytes (+0.00%).
The _raw_spin_unlock()-heavy nginx workload reflects the larger hot
path: L1 instruction-cache misses rise ~1.4% (kernel and total) and
instruction count ~0.4%, consistent with the per-unlock frame.
cpu_cycles, throughput and latency show no measurable change and are
within run-to-run noise.
Architectures with fully custom qspinlock implementations (e.g.
PowerPC) are not covered by this change.

locking: Factor out queued_spin_release()
The contended_release tracepoint needs to hook queued_spin_unlock(), but architectures with a custom unlock define queued_spin_unlock() directly, leaving no single generic place to add the tracing. Introduce queued_spin_release() as the arch-overridable release primitive and make queued_spin_unlock() a generic wrapper around it. An architecture that only customizes the release can then override queued_spin_release() and inherit the generic wrapper. Rename the MIPS override to queued_spin_release() accordingly. x86 paravirt overrides queued_spin_unlock() directly and is left unchanged. No functional change intended.

objtool/klp: Add .klp.symid for sympos disambiguation
Livepatch identifies a duplicate-named symbol by its position (sympos) among same-named kallsyms entries, which for vmlinux are counted in ascending address order in the final linked kernel. That order can't be reliably derived from vmlinux.o: the final link reorders sub-sections (.text.unlikely*, .data..*, etc). Bridge the gap with a new .klp.symid section which can be used to correlate symbols between vmlinux.o and vmlinux so that klp-diff can reliably determine the sympos. The table can't survive --gc-sections: keeping it alive would keep every duplicate-named symbol's section alive, so the reference kernel would stop matching the one which ships. klp-build rejects CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION instead. Nothing is lost today: x86_64 is the only HAVE_KLP_BUILD arch and doesn't select HAVE_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION, arm64 and s390 have never selected it either, and on powerpc, it's still EXPERIMENTAL and disabled by every distro kernel. This is the build-time half of reliable vmlinux sympos computation; "objtool klp diff" will consume the table in a subsequent commit.

futex: Use runtime constants for __futex_hash() hot path
Runtime constify the read-only after init data __futex_shift(shift_32),
__futex_mask(mask_32), and __futex_queues(ptr) used in __futex_hash()
hot path to avoid referencing global variable.
This also allows __futex_queues to be allocated dynamically to
"nr_node_ids" slots instead of reserving config dependent MAX_NUMNODES
(1 << CONFIG_NODES_SHIFT) worth of slots upfront.
Runtime constants are initialized before their first access and
runtime_const_init() provides necessary barrier to ensure subsequent
accesses are not reordered against their initialization.
No functional changes intended.

bitops: make the *_bit_le functions use unsigned long
The *_bit_le functions use a signed integer for the bit number. However, the *_bit functions can use an unsigned long. This causes problems if there is a large bitmap and a bit number > 0x80000000 is passed in. Since that is a negative int, it will get sign extended to a long when getting passed to the *_bit function, turning it into a huge bit number. This usually ends up with the memory address wrapping around and the function accessing memory before the start of the bitmap. Avoid this by making the *_bit_le functions take an unsigned long. This can be triggered by faking an almost 4TB dm-mirror device, which uses bitmaps to track the mirror regions: $ dmsetup create bigzero --table '0 8589934590 zero' $ dmsetup create mymirror --table '0 8589934590 mirror core 2 2 nosync 2 /dev/mapper/bigzero 0 /dev/mapper/bigzero 0' This will access memory before the start of the sync_bits bitmap, and likely hit the guard page of the previously allocated clean_bits bitmap, causing a kernel panic with the old code. I looked and didn't see any crazy code using the signed int to intentionally try and access bits before some address within the bitmap.

Patchsets in this merge:
- The 2 patch series "selftests/mm: clean up build output and verbosity"
from Li Wang removes some noise from the MM selftests build out.
- The 3 patch series "mm: Free contiguous order-0 pages efficiently"
from Ryan Roberts speeds up the freeing of a batch of 0-order pages by
first scanning them for coalescing opportunities. This is applicable to
vfree() and to the releasing of frozen pages.
- The 11 patch series "mm/damon: introduce DAMOS failed region quota
charge ratio" from SeongJae Park addresses a DAMOS usability issue: The
DAMOS quota often exhausts prematurely because it charges for all memory
attempted, causing slow and inconsistent performance when actions fail
on unreclaimable memory.
To fix this, a new feature lets users set a smaller, flexible quota
charge ratio (via a numerator and denominator) for failed regions.
Since failed actions cause less overhead, reducing their quota cost
ensures more predictable and efficient DAMOS processing
- The 8 patch series "selftests/cgroup: improve zswap tests robustness
and support large page sizes" from Li Wang fixes various spurious
failures and improves the overall robustness of the cgroup zswap
selftests.
- The 3 patch series "fix MAP_DROPPABLE not supported errno" from
Anthony Yznaga fixes an issue in the mlock selftests on arm32.
- The 2 patch series "mm: huge_memory: clean up defrag sysfs with
shared" from Breno Leitao does some maintenance work in the huge_memory
code.
- The 3 patch series "treewide: fixup gfp_t printks" from Brendan
Jackman uses the special vprintf() gfp_t conversion in various places.
- The 6 patch series "mm: Fix vmemmap optimization accounting and
initialization" from Muchun Song fixes several bugs in the vmemmap
optimization, mainly around incorrect page accounting and memmap
initialization in the DAX and memory hotplug paths. It also fixes
pageblock migratetype initialization and struct page initialization for
ZONE_DEVICE compound pages.
- The 4 patch series "mm/damon: repost non-hotfix reviewed patches in
damon/next tree" from is a sprinkle of unrelated minor bugfixes for
DAMON.
- The 3 patch series "mm: remove page_mapped()" from David Hildenbrand
remove this function from the tree, replacing it with folio_mapped().
- The 10 patch series "mm/damon: let DAMON be paused and resumed" from
SeongJae Park permits DAMON to be paused and resumed without losing its
current state.
- The 3 patch series "kasan: hw_tags: Disable tagging for stack and
page-tables" from Muhammad Usama Anjum simplifies and speeds up kasan by
removing its ineffective tagging of stacks and page tables.
- The 7 patch series "mm/damon/reclaim,lru_sort: monitor all system rams
by default" from SeongJae Park simplifies deployment on diverse hardware
like NUMA systems by updating DAMON_RECLAIM and DAMON_LRU_SORT to
automatically monitor the physical address range covering all System RAM
areas by default, replacing the overly restrictive behavior that only
targeted the single largest memory block to save on negligible overhead.
- The 2 patch series "mm/damon/sysfs: document filters/ directory as
deprecated" from SeongJae Park updates some DAMON docs.
- The 8 patch series "mm: use spinlock guards for zone lock" from Dmitry
Ilvokhin switches zone->lock handling over to using the guard()
mechanisms.
- The 2 patch series "mm/filemap: tighten mmap_miss hit accounting" from
fujunjie fixes a flaw where the mmap_miss counter over-credited page
cache hits during fault-arounds and page-fault retries. This results in
significant reduction of redundant synchronous mmap readahead I/O,
drastically cutting down execution time and gigabytes read for sparse
random or strided memory access workloads.
- The 2 patch series "selftests/cgroup: Fix false positive failures in
test_percpu_basic" from Li Wang fixes a couple of false-positives in the
cgroup kmem selftests.
- The 2 patch series "mm/damon/reclaim: support monitoring intervals
auto-tuning" from SeongJae Park adds a new parameter to DAMON permitting
DAMON_RECLAIM to automatically tune DAMON's sampling and aggregation
intervals.
- The 2 patch series "mm/damon/stat: add kdamond_pid parameter" from
SeongJae Park chnges DAMON_STAT to provide the pid of its kdamond.
- The 2 patch series "mm/kmemleak: dedupe verbose scan output" from
Breno Leitao removes large amounts of duplicated backtraces from the
verbose-mode kmemleak output.
- The 8 patch series "mm: remove CONFIG_HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE (Part 1)"
from David Hildenbrand reduces our use of CONFIG_HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE,
with a view to removing it entirely in a later series.
- The 2 patch series "mm/damon: validate min_region_size to be power of
2" from Liew Rui Yan prevents users from passing a non-power-of-2 value
of `addr_unit', as this later results in undesirable behavior.
- The 2 patch series "mm: document read_pages and simplify usage" from
Frederick Mayle does as claimed.
- The 3 patch series "tools/mm/page-types: Fix misc bugs" from Ye Liu
fixes three issues in tools/mm/page-types.c.
- The 4 patch series "mm: misc cleanups from __GFP_UNMAPPED series" from
Brendan Jackman implements several cleanups in the page allocator and
related code.
- The 12 patch series "mm, swap: swap table phase IV: unify allocation"
from Kairui Song unifies the allocation and charging of anon and shmem
swap in folios, provides better synchronization, consolidates the
metadata management, hence dropping the static array and map, and
improves performance.
- The 28 patch series "mm/damon: introduce data attributes monitoring"
from SeongJae Park extends DAMON for monitoring general data attributes
other than accesses.
- The 5 patch series "mm/vmalloc: free unused pages on vrealloc()
shrink" from Shivam Kalra implements the TODO in vrealloc() to unmap and
free unused pages when shrinking across a page boundary.
- The 3 patch series "mm/damon: documentation and comment fixes" from
niecheng does as advertised.
- The 3 patch series "remove mmap_action success, error hooks" from
Lorenzo Stoakes eliminates custom hooks from mmap_action by removing the
problematic success_hook which allowed drivers to improperly access
uninitialized VMAs. It replaces the error_hook with a simple error-code
field and updates the memory char driver accordingly.
- The 14 patch series "mm/damon: minor improvements for code readability
and tests" from SeongJae Park implements minor improvements in code
readability and tests for DAMON.
- The 2 patch series "mm/damon: fix macro arguments and clarify quota
goals doc" from Maksym Shcherba does those things.
- The 2 patch series "userfaultfd: merge fs/userfaultfd.c into
mm/userfaultfd.c" from Mike Rapoport performs that code movement.
- The 15 patch series "mm/mglru: improve reclaim loop and dirty folio"
from Kairui Song and others cleans up and slightly improves MGLRU's
reclaim loop and dirty writeback handling. Large performance
improvements are measured.
- The 3 patch series "use vma locks for proc/pid/{smaps|numa_maps}
reads" from Suren Baghdasaryan uses per-vma locks when reading
/proc/pid/smaps and /proc/pid/numa_maps similar to reduce contention on
central mmap_lock.
- The 2 patch series "refactors thpsize_shmem_enabled_store() and
thpsize_shmem_enabled_show()" from Ran Xiaokai provides some cleanup
work in the THP code.
- The 2 patch series "selftests/memfd: fix compilation warnings" from
Konstantin Khorenko fixes a few build glitches in the memfd selftest
code.
- The 4 patch series "memcg: shrink obj_stock_pcp and cache multiple
objcgs" from Shakeel Butt resolves a 68% performance regression caused
by NUMA-node cache thrashing around struct obj_stock_pcp by shrinking
its existing fields and expanding it into a multi-slot array that caches
up to five obj_cgroup pointers per CPU, allowing per-node variants of
the same memcg to coexist within a single 64-byte cache line.
- The 2 patch series "zram: writeback fixes" from Sergey Senozhatsky
addresses a couple of unrelated zram writeback issues.
- The 9 patch series "mm: switch THP shrinker to list_lru" from Johannes
Weiner resolves NUMA-awareness issues and streamlines callsite
interaction by refactoring and extending the list_lru API to completely
replace the complex, open-coded deferred split queue for Transparent
Huge Pages (THPs).
- The 2 patch series "mm: improve large folio readahead for exec memory"
from Usama Arif improves large-folio readahead on systems like 64K-page
arm64 by preventing the mmap_miss check from permanently disabling
target-oriented VM_EXEC readahead, and by generalizing the
force_thp_readahead gate to support mappings with any usefully large
maximum folio order under the cache cap.
- The 6 patch series "userfaultfd/pagemap: pre-existing fixes" from
Kiryl Shutsemau fixes a bunch of minor issues in the
userfaultfd/pagemap, all of which were flagged by Sashiko review of
proposed new material.
- The 5 patch series "mm/sparse-vmemmap: Provide generic
vmemmap_set_pmd() and vmemmap_check_pmd()" from Muchun Song provides
generic versions of these two functions so the four arch-specific
implementations can be removed.
- The 2 patch series "mm/swap, PM: hibernate: fix swapoff race in
uswsusp by pinning swap device" from Youngjun Park addresses a
uswsusp-vs-swapoff race and reduces the swap device reference
taking/releasing frequency.
- The 2 patch series "mm/hmm: A fix and a selftest" from Dev Jain does
as claimed.

Pull bpf updates from Alexei Starovoitov:
"Major changes:
- Recover from BPF arena page faults using a scratch page and add
ptep_try_set() for lockless empty-slot installs on x86 and arm64.
This allows BPF kfuncs to access arena pointers directly.
The 'arena_direct_access' stable branch was created for this work
and was pulled into sched-ext and bpf-next trees (Tejun Heo, Kumar
Kartikeya Dwivedi)
- Lift old restriction and support 6+ arguments in BPF programs and
kfuncs on x86 and arm64 (Yonghong Song, Puranjay Mohan)
Other features and fixes:
- Add 24-bit BTF vlen and reclaim unused bits in the BTF UAPI to ease
addition of new BTF kinds (Alan Maguire)
- Raise the maximum BPF call chain depth from 8 to 16 frames (Alexei
Starovoitov)
- Refactor object relationship tracking in the verifier and fix a
dynptr use-after-free bug (Amery Hung)
- Harden the signed program loader and reject exclusive maps as inner
maps (Daniel Borkmann)
- Replace the verifier min/max bounds fields with a circular number
(cnum) representation and improve 32->64 bit range refinements
(Eduard Zingerman)
- Introduce the arena library and runtime (libarena) with a buddy
allocator, rbtree and SPMC queue data structures, ASAN support and
a parallel test harness. Allow subprograms to return arena pointers
and switch to a BTF type-tag based __arena annotation (Emil
Tsalapatis)
- Cache build IDs in the sleepable stackmap path and avoid faultable
build ID reads under mm locks (Ihor Solodrai)
- Introduce the tracing_multi link to attach a single BPF program to
many kernel functions at once. Allow specifying the uprobe_multi
target via FD (Jiri Olsa)
- Extend the bpf_list family of kfuncs with bpf_list_add/del(), and
bpf_list_is_first/is_last/empty() (Kaitao Cheng)
- Extend the BPF syscall with common attributes support for
prog_load, btf_load and map_create (Leon Hwang)
- Wrap rhashtable as BPF map (Mykyta Yatsenko, Herbert Xu)
- Add sleepable support for tracepoint programs and fix deadlocks in
LRU map due to NMI reentry (Mykyta Yatsenko)
- Fix OOB access in bpf_flow_keys, fix nullness analysis of inner
arrays, enforce write checks for global subprograms (Nuoqi Gui)
- Report the maximum combined stack depth and print a breakdown of
instructions processed per subprogram (Paul Chaignon)
- Add an XDP load-balancer benchmark and arm64 JIT support for stack
arguments (Puranjay Mohan)
- Add kfuncs to traverse over wakeup_sources (Samuel Wu)
- Allow sleepable BPF programs to use LPM trie maps directly (Vlad
Poenaru)
- Many more fixes and cleanups across the verifier, BTF, sockmap,
devmap, bpffs, security hooks, s390/riscv/loongarch JITs,
rqspinlock, libbpf, bpftool, selftests"

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

- Add a note about robust list race condition (André Almeida)

rqspinlock: Fix order in raw_res_spin_(un)lock_irq to allow schedule
raw_res_spin_unlock_irqrestore() calls raw_res_spin_unlock() and then
restores interrupts, this means preemption is enabled when interrupts
are still disabled (as part of raw_res_spin_unlock()) so this cannot
trigger an actual preemption.
This is inconsistent with other spinlock implementations
(raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore() and bpf_res_spin_unlock_irqrestore()
itself).
Adjust the macro to ensure interrupts are enabled before enabling
preemption, allowing to schedule at that point. Make the same
modification in the error path of raw_res_spin_lock_irqsave().

kconfig: Remove the architecture specific config for Propeller
The CONFIG_PROPELLER_CLANG option currently depends on ARCH_SUPPORTS_PROPELLER_CLANG, but this dependency seems unnecessary. Remove ARCH_SUPPORTS_PROPELLER_CLANG and allow users to control Propeller builds solely through CONFIG_PROPELLER_CLANG. This simplifies the kconfig and avoids potential confusion. Move the .llvm_bb_addr_map sections grouping to include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h. The Propeller documentation has been updated to reflect the most recent tool location and now includes instructions for arm64.

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

locking/qspinlock: Clarify pending field layout
For CONFIG_NR_CPUS < 16K, _Q_PENDING_BITS is 8 and the pending field occupies bits 8-15 of the lock word.

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

mm: skip KASAN tagging for page-allocated page tables
Page tables are always accessed via the linear mapping with a match-all tag, so HW-tag KASAN never checks them. For page-allocated tables (PTEs and PGDs etc), avoid the tag setup and poisoning overhead by using __GFP_SKIP_KASAN. SLUB-backed page tables are unchanged for now. (They aren't widely used and require more SLUB related skip logic. Leave it later.)

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

x86/hyperv: Skip LP/VP creation on kexec
After a kexec the logical processors and virtual processors already exist in the hypervisor because they were created by the previous kernel. Attempting to add them again causes either a BUG_ON or corrupted VP state leading to MCEs in the new kernel. Add hv_lp_exists() to probe whether an LP is already present by calling HVCALL_GET_LOGICAL_PROCESSOR_RUN_TIME. When it succeeds the LP exists and we skip the add-LP and create-VP loops entirely. Also add hv_call_notify_all_processors_started() which informs the hypervisor that all processors are online. This is required after adding LPs (fresh boot) and is a no-op on kexec since we skip that path.

Total patches: 126
Reviews/patch: 0.92
Reviewed rate: 76%
- The 2 patch series "pid: make sub-init creation retryable" from Oleg
Nesterov increases the robustness of our creation of init in a new
namespace. By clearing away some historical cruft which is no longer
needed. Also some documentation fixups are provided.
- The 2 patch series "selftests/fchmodat2: Error handling and general"
from Mark Brown has a fixup and a cleanup for the fchmodat2() syscall
selftest.
- The 3 patch series "lib: polynomial: Move to math/ and clean up" from
Andy Shevchenko does as advertised.
- The 3 patch series "hung_task: Provide runtime reset interface for
hung task detector" from Aaron Tomlin gives administrators the ability
to zero out /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_detect_count.
- The 2 patch series "tools/getdelays: use the static UAPI headers from
tools/include/uapi" from Thomas Weißschuh teaches getdelays to use the
in-kernel UAPI headers rather than the system-provided ones.
- The 5 patch series "watchdog/hardlockup: Improvements to hardlockup"
from Mayank Rungta provides several cleanups and fixups to the
hardlockup detector code and its documentation.
- The 2 patch series "lib/bch: fix undefined behavior from signed
left-shifts" from Josh Law provides a couple of small/theoretical fixes
in the bch code.
- The 2 patch series "ocfs2/dlm: fix two bugs in dlm_match_regions()"
from Junrui Luo does what is claims.
- The 27 patch series "cleanup the RAID5 XOR library" from Christoph
Hellwig is a quite far-reaching cleanup to this code. I can't do better
than to quote Christoph:
The XOR library used for the RAID5 parity is a bit of a mess right
now. The main file sits in crypto/ despite not being cryptography and
not using the crypto API, with the generic implementations sitting in
include/asm-generic and the arch implementations sitting in an asm/
header in theory. The latter doesn't work for many cases, so
architectures often build the code directly into the core kernel, or
create another module for the architecture code.
Change this to a single module in lib/ that also contains the
architecture optimizations, similar to the library work Eric Biggers
has done for the CRC and crypto libraries later. After that it
changes to better calling conventions that allow for smarter
architecture implementations (although none is contained here yet),
and uses static_call to avoid indirection function call overhead.
- The 2 patch series "lib/list_sort: Clean up list_sort() scheduling
workarounds" from Kuan-Wei Chiu cleans up this library code by removing
a hacky thing which was added for UBIFS, which UBIFS doesn't actually
need.
- The 5 patch series "Fix bugs in extract_iter_to_sg()" from Christian
Ehrhardt fixes a few bugs in the scatterlist code, adds in-kernel tests
for the now-fixed bugs and fixes a leak in the test itself.
- The 3 patch series "kdump: Enable LUKS-encrypted dump target support
in ARM64 and PowerPC" from Coiby Xu eenables support of the
LUKS-encrypted device dump target on arm64 and powerpc.
- The 4 patch series "ocfs2: consolidate extent list validation into
block read callbacks" from Joseph Qi addresses ocfs2's validation of
extent list fields - cleanup, simplification, robustness. (Kernel test
robot loves mounting corrupted fs images!)

Modules changes for v7.1-rc1
Kernel symbol flags:
- Replace the separate *_gpl symbol sections (__ksymtab_gpl and
__kcrctab_gpl) with a unified symbol table and a new
__kflagstab section. This section stores symbol flags, such as
the GPL-only flag, as an 8-bit bitset for each exported symbol.
This is a cleanup that simplifies symbol lookup in the module
loader by avoiding table fragmentation and will allow a cleaner
way to add more flags later if needed.
Module signature UAPI:
- Move struct module_signature to the UAPI headers to allow reuse
by tools outside the kernel proper, such as kmod and
scripts/sign-file. This also renames a few constants for clarity
and drops unused signature types as preparation for hash-based
module integrity checking work that's in progress.
Sysfs:
- Add a /sys/module/<module>/import_ns sysfs attribute to show
the symbol namespaces imported by loaded modules. This makes it
easier to verify driver API access at runtime on systems that
care about such things (e.g. Android).
Cleanups and fixes:
- Force sh_addr to 0 for all sections in module.lds. This prevents
non-zero section addresses when linking modules with ld.bfd -r,
which confused elfutils.
- Fix a memory leak of charp module parameters on module unload
when the kernel is configured with CONFIG_SYSFS=n.
- Override the -EEXIST error code returned by module_init() to
userspace. This prevents confusion with the errno reserved by
the module loader to indicate that a module is already loaded.
- Simplify the warning message and drop the stack dump on positive
returns from module_init().
- Drop unnecessary extern keywords from function declarations and
synchronize parse_args() arguments with their implementation.

__kcrctab_gpl) with a unified symbol table and a new __kflagstab
section.
This section stores symbol flags, such as the GPL-only flag, as an
8-bit bitset for each exported symbol. This is a cleanup that
simplifies symbol lookup in the module loader by avoiding table
fragmentation and will allow a cleaner way to add more flags later
if needed.
Module signature UAPI:
- Move struct module_signature to the UAPI headers to allow reuse by
tools outside the kernel proper, such as kmod and
scripts/sign-file.
This also renames a few constants for clarity and drops unused
signature types as preparation for hash-based module integrity
checking work that's in progress.
Sysfs:
- Add a /sys/module/<module>/import_ns sysfs attribute to show the
symbol namespaces imported by loaded modules.
This makes it easier to verify driver API access at runtime on
systems that care about such things (e.g. Android).
Cleanups and fixes:
- Force sh_addr to 0 for all sections in module.lds. This prevents
non-zero section addresses when linking modules with 'ld.bfd -r',
which confused elfutils.
- Fix a memory leak of charp module parameters on module unload when
the kernel is configured with CONFIG_SYSFS=n.
- Override the -EEXIST error code returned by module_init() to
userspace. This prevents confusion with the errno reserved by the
module loader to indicate that a module is already loaded.
- Simplify the warning message and drop the stack dump on positive
returns from module_init().
- Drop unnecessary extern keywords from function declarations and
synchronize parse_args() arguments with their implementation"

Updates for the timer/timekeeping core:
- A rework of the hrtimer subsystem to reduce the overhead for frequently
armed timers, especially the hrtick scheduler timer.
- Better timer locality decision
- Simplification of the evaluation of the first expiry time by
keeping track of the neighbor timers in the RB-tree by providing a
RB-tree variant with neighbor links. That avoids walking the
RB-tree on removal to find the next expiry time, but even more
important allows to quickly evaluate whether a timer which is
rearmed changes the position in the RB-tree with the modified
expiry time or not. If not, the dequeue/enqueue sequence which both
can end up in rebalancing can be completely avoided.
- Deferred reprogramming of the underlying clock event device. This
optimizes for the situation where a hrtimer callback sets the need
resched bit. In that case the code attempts to defer the
re-programming of the clock event device up to the point where the
scheduler has picked the next task and has the next hrtick timer
armed. In case that there is no immediate reschedule or soft
interrupts have to be handled before reaching the reschedule point
in the interrupt entry code the clock event is reprogrammed in one
of those code paths to prevent that the timer becomes stale.
- Support for clocksource coupled clockevents
The TSC deadline timer is coupled to the TSC. The next event is
programmed in TSC time. Currently this is done by converting the
CLOCK_MONOTONIC based expiry value into a relative timeout,
converting it into TSC ticks, reading the TSC adding the delta
ticks and writing the deadline MSR.
As the timekeeping core has the conversion factors for the TSC
already, the whole back and forth conversion can be completely
avoided. The timekeeping core calculates the reverse conversion
factors from nanoseconds to TSC ticks and utilizes the base
timestamps of TSC and CLOCK_MONOTONIC which are updated once per
tick. This allows a direct conversion into the TSC deadline value
without reading the time and as a bonus keeps the deadline
conversion in sync with the TSC conversion factors, which are
updated by adjtimex() on systems with NTP/PTP enabled.
- Allow inlining of the clocksource read and clockevent write
functions when they are tiny enough, e.g. on x86 RDTSC and WRMSR.
With all those enhancements in place a hrtick enabled scheduler
provides the same performance as without hrtick. But also other hrtimer
users obviously benefit from these optimizations.
- Robustness improvements and cleanups of historical sins in the hrtimer
and timekeeping code.
- Rewrite of the clocksource watchdog.
The clocksource watchdog code has over time reached the state of an
impenetrable maze of duct tape and staples. The original design, which was
made in the context of systems far smaller than today, is based on the
assumption that the to be monitored clocksource (TSC) can be trivially
compared against a known to be stable clocksource (HPET/ACPI-PM timer).
Over the years this rather naive approach turned out to have major
flaws. Long delays between the watchdog invocations can cause wrap
arounds of the reference clocksource. The access to the reference
clocksource degrades on large multi-sockets systems dure to
interconnect congestion. This has been addressed with various
heuristics which degraded the accuracy of the watchdog to the point
that it fails to detect actual TSC problems on older hardware which
exposes slow inter CPU drifts due to firmware manipulating the TSC to
hide SMI time.
The rewrite addresses this by:
- Restricting the validation against the reference clocksource to the
boot CPU which is usually closest to the legacy block which
contains the reference clocksource (HPET/ACPI-PM).
- Do a round robin validation betwen the boot CPU and the other CPUs
based only on the TSC with an algorithm similar to the TSC
synchronization code during CPU hotplug.
- Being more leniant versus remote timeouts
- The usual tiny fixes, cleanups and enhancements all over the place

mm/mmu_gather: replace IPI with synchronize_rcu() when batch allocation fails
When freeing page tables, we try to batch them. If batch allocation fails (GFP_NOWAIT), __tlb_remove_table_one() immediately frees the one without batching. On !CONFIG_PT_RECLAIM, the fallback sends an IPI to all CPUs via tlb_remove_table_sync_one(). It disrupts all CPUs even when only a single process is unmapping memory. IPI broadcast was reported to hurt RT workloads[1]. tlb_remove_table_sync_one() synchronizes with lockless page-table walkers (e.g. GUP-fast) that rely on IRQ disabling. These walkers use local_irq_disable(), which is also an RCU read-side critical section. This patch introduces tlb_remove_table_sync_rcu() which uses RCU grace period (synchronize_rcu()) instead of IPI broadcast. This provides the same guarantee as IPI but without disrupting all CPUs. Since batch allocation already failed, we are in a slow path where sleeping is acceptable - we are in process context (unmap_region, exit_mmap) with only mmap_lock held. tlb_remove_table_sync_one() is retained for other callers (e.g., khugepaged after pmdp_collapse_flush(), tlb_finish_mmu() when tlb->fully_unshared_tables) that are not slow paths. Converting those may require different approaches such as targeted IPIs.

xor: make xor.ko self-contained in lib/raid/
Move the asm/xor.h headers to lib/raid/xor/$(SRCARCH)/xor_arch.h and include/linux/raid/xor_impl.h to lib/raid/xor/xor_impl.h so that the xor.ko module implementation is self-contained in lib/raid/. As this remove the asm-generic mechanism a new kconfig symbol is added to indicate that a architecture-specific implementations exists, and xor_arch.h should be included.

xor: move generic implementations out of asm-generic/xor.h
Move the generic implementations from asm-generic/xor.h to per-implementaion .c files in lib/raid. This will build them unconditionally even when an architecture forces a specific implementation, but as we'll need at least one generic version for the static_call optimization later on we'll pay that price. Note that this would cause the second xor_block_8regs instance created by arch/arm/lib/xor-neon.c to be generated instead of discarded as dead code, so add a NO_TEMPLATE symbol to disable it for this case.
