Arm:
* Add support for 'slot' based PMU events, paired with new UAPI that
compels the user to select a specific PMU implementation
* Lazy save/restore of vCPU state for pKVM, along with various fixes
and cleanups to the management of vCPU state between the untrusted
host and pKVM hypervisor
* Disable traps of EL1 registers for nested hypervisors when FEAT_NV2p1
is present, guaranteeing that EL2-specific register bits are stateful
in the EL1 counterpart
* Leverage FEAT_NV3 to avoid unnecessary ERET/TLBI traps when the scope
of those instructions remains 'in host' (i.e. L1 kernel/userspace)
* Pile of fixes for the management of the VNCR pseudo-TLB, such as
under-invalidations and races with concurrent TLBIs on other vCPUs
* Consolidate the non-protected and pKVM view of ICH_VTR_EL2 to a
runtime-patched constant, allowing the same data to be shared with
pKVM prior to dropping host privileges
* Considerable pile of LLM-assisted fixes around the shop but mostly in
the VGIC, our in-kernel generator of bugs (and sometimes interrupts)
LoongArch:
* Advertise already-supported capabilities.
* Some bug fixes about timer and MMIO.
* Some hardening about interrupt injection.
* Replace kvm_err() with kvm_pr_unimpl().
* Add FPU/LSX/LASX test cases for selftests.
RISC-V:
* Svadu/Zicfiss/Zicfilp FWFT support for Guest
* Use try_cmpxchg for IMSIC MRIF RMW
* More arch-specific tracepoints in KVM RISC-V
* Eager page splitting when enabling dirty logging
* Optimize hfence request handling for SMP Guests
* Improve dirty log clearing by skipping zero bits in mask
* Guard HFENCE range loops against overflow
* CPU PM notifiers in KVM RISC-V for non-retentive idle states
* Fix kernel-mode vector context save/restore for Guest
s390:
* Fixes for vfio-ap
* Fixes for the gmap rework
* Fixes for vsie
* AI triggered fixes all over
* diag9c tracing
* code move preparation for the additional arm64 support
* enable CONTEXT_ANALYSIS
x86:
* Perform spring cleaning on x86.{c,h} and asm/kvm_host.h, by adding regs.c
(the kvm_cache_regs.h => regs.h is already applied) and msrs.{c,h}, and moving
relevant code out of x86.c.
* Split kvm_mmu in three parts, respectively to describe the format of page
tables, walking the guest page tables and building the page tables. Always
use the same page table walker kvm->arch.gva_walk as the entry point to
convert a guest's virtual address, where the previous code used two
different kvm_mmu structs depending on whether the walk included nested
EPT/NPT or not. Make page fault vmexits reuse the permission checking
machinery that is used for guest page faults. This is both a cleanup
and a baby step towards supporting XS/XU memory permissions.
* Document some of the "fun" gotchas with the APIC base when creating IRQCHIPs
on x86.
* Remove a defunct masterclock update from kvm_xen_shared_info_init(). It
could result in incorrect kvmclock due to triggering an unnecessary
switch to/from masterclock mode.
* Skip Xen runstate time updates if time has effectively gone backwards, so
that the guest doesn't report 100% steal time for a very, very long time.
* Drop KVM's runtime updates of the Xen PV timing CPUID leaf, as KVM was
updating the wrong sub-leaf, and upstream KVM will soon provide all the
information needed by userspace to populate the CPUID field itself.
* Fix a bug where KVM would walk a newly created rmap without holding the rmap
lock (or mmu_lock) during aging.
* Fix a bug where aging TDP MMU SPTEs could clobber FROZEN SPTEs.
* Fix a variety of #DB priority bugs.
* Fix a class of races related to enabling Hyper-V emulation on a vCPU after
the vCPU is visible to the rest of KVM.
* Use static calls for nested virtualization ops.
* Move more KVM-internal code out of x86's kvm_host.h.
* Enumerate support for a variety of Zhaoxin instructions that don't require
explicit virtualization.
* Fix missing EFER validation bugs, including in the KVM_SET_SREGS* path.
* Harden kvm_vcpu_map() against double-mapping and thus leaking references.
* Misc fixes and cleanups, e.g. for largely benign syzkaller splats.
x86 (Intel):
* Zero a vCPU's entry in VMX's Posted Interrupt Descriptor table used for IPI
virtualization when the vCPU is freed, to fix a use-after-free where hardware
will write to a freed vCPU's PID.
* Service local TLB flushes on a failed nested VM-Enter to fix a bug where KVM
could miss a TLB on a future, successful VM-Enter with the same L2 VPID.
* Cap the maximum value shoved into the VMX Preemption Timer to workaround an
erratum that affects all existing Intel CPUs that support CPUID 0x15.
* Fix VPID virtualization bugs where KVM would fail to flush hardware TLBs.
* Harden the TDX "populate" ioctls against bad input, and to prepare
for supporting in-place private<=>shared conversion.
x86 (AMD):
* Forcefully invalidate SNP VMSA pages if their backing guest_memfd page is
zapped/invalidated, e.g. due to a PUNCH_HOLE in response to a Page-State
Change request.
* Remove a dying VM from the GA Log notifier list before the VM is actually
destroyed, to fix a potential use-after-free.
* While FOLL_WRITE was needed in the past to trigger CoW unsharing, nowadays
FOLL_LONGTERM does that already even without FOLL_WRITE, and in fact,
get_user_pages() actually disallows FOLL_WRITE together with FOLL_LONGTERM.
So don't pass FOLL_WRITE when registering encrypted memory regions, i.e. when
pinning SEV/SEV-ES guest memory, to fix a regression with file-backed memory
introduced by KVM's (correct) usage of long-term pins.

mm/hugetlb_cma: support percentage-based hugetlb_cma reservation
Currently, hugetlb_cma reservation only supports absolute sizes (e.g., hugetlb_cma=2G or hugetlb_cma=0:1G,1:1G). This can be restrictive in heterogeneous environments or when deploying common kernel command lines across machines with different memory capacities. Add support for percentage-based hugetlb_cma reservation (e.g., hugetlb_cma=20% or hugetlb_cma=0:20%,1:10%). The percentage is calculated against the total memory (for global settings) or against the node-specific memory (for node-specific settings) using memblock APIs during early boot.

mm/page_reporting: add page_reporting_delay_ms module parameter
Free page reporting currently hardcodes a 2-second interval between reports. This rigid delay cannot accommodate diverse guest workloads. This patch introduces a module parameter, page_reporting_delay_ms (default: 2000), allowing users to tune the reporting rate: - Lower values enable aggressive memory reclamation by returning unused pages to the host immediately. - Higher values help batch pages during spiky allocation/free churn, reducing hypercalls and nested page fault overheads. Setting the delay to 0 is safe and execution is strictly gated by: - reporting is only triggered by high-order page frees. - expensive hypercalls are bounded by a slot capacity watermark check before proceeding.

docs: panic: Disclaimer about console verbosity when using panic_print with pstore
Users of panic_print / panic_sys_info are usually aware of the potentially huge amount of information displayed with such options - their goal by using them is indeed to dump more information during panic! What might come unnoticed at first is the impact that the console_verbose() call on panic path has, specially in cases that users rely on pstore as a means to collect the panic logs. Recent experience shows that dumping all tasks in an ARM64 system (with qcom_geni tty driver) gets a 2 minute delay on panic time due to writing such information to console. But in that case, pstore was used, so there was no need for console printing, and suppressing that reduced the full time to less than 0.5 second. The option "printk.console_no_auto_verbose" aims exactly at this use case: avoid automatically increasing the loglevel during panic path. So, let's officially document this to avoid users wasting their time either on long panic printing or debugging the panic delays. While at it, improve the readability of the panic_print text, by adding some line breaks.

NFSD 7.3 Release Notes
Jeff Layton contributed CB_NOTIFY support to NFSD's NFSv4.1
directory delegations. The server used to recall a delegation as
soon as the directory changed. NFSD now watches delegated
directories through fsnotify and reports adds, removes, renames,
and directory attribute changes, carrying the filehandle and
attributes of the affected entry, so clients can keep their
caches. Some of the NOTIFY4 flags come from RFC 8881bis.
Jeff Layton also continued the netlink work that started in v7.2.
A new server-stats-get operation reports what /proc/net/rpc/nfsd
publishes, plus NFSv4 callback counts, and SUNRPC now keeps its
per-procedure call counts per network namespace, so a container
sees its own numbers. nfsstat reads all of this over netlink, with
a procfs fallback for older kernels.
SUNRPC's service thread pool mode selection is gone. Pernode is
the right choice on any host we run today, so the auto, global,
and percpu modes have been removed. A single-node host still gets
one pool. A multi-NUMA host now gets a pool per node.
sunrpc.pool_mode accepts the old names but no longer selects
anything.
The rest is bug fixes, clean-ups, and small optimizations: an
async COPY offload rework from Jeff Layton, more use-after-free
fixes in the NFSv4 state revocation paths, percpu counter
contention removed from the reply cache and IO accounting, and a
long list of hardening fixes from Chris Mason. Sincere thanks to
all contributors, reviewers, testers, and bug reporters who
participated in the v7.3 NFSD development cycle.

It has been a not-too-busy cycle for docs; here's the highlights:
- A (hopefully) consensus change to our LLM-attribution requirements,
removing the specific model name from the Assisted-by tag.
- A couple of new realtime documents
- Various docs-build-system fixes
- Ongoing work with the Chinese, Portuguese, and Japanese translations.
...and lots of typo fixes, grammar tweaks, etc.

Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
"There's a reasonable amount of stuff here, including a bunch of
updates to the perf PMU drivers and some MPAM updates to expose the
memory bandwidth counters via resctrl.
On the architecture side, some highlights include support for BBML3
and steps towards support for an architectural NMI solution, all
wrapped up in a web of fixes for latent issues identified by Sashiko.

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"As has been the case for quite some time, this set of changes is
dominated by cpufreq updates including intel-pstate and amd-pstate
driver updates, minor fixes and cleanups of other assorted cpufreq
drivers, schedutil governor updates, fixes of the Rust bindings, new
hardware support (IPQ5210 in qcom-nvmem), and some updates of self
tests related to cpufreq.
The second largest group of changes are cpuidle updates consisting of
intel_idle driver updates and ACPI processor idle driver updates, both
mostly related to ACPI _LPI support.
There are also updates related to system sleep, mostly in the
hibernation core code, two operating performance points (OPP) updates,
one runtime PM framework update, one power capping update, and some
tools updates including the addition of ACPI CPPC support to cpupower.

rcutorture: Add a stall_only module parameter
This commit adds a stall_only module parameter that shuts off all rcutorture kthreads other than the RCU CPU stall-warning test kthreads. The purpose of this is to test production applictions' reactions to CPU stalls, and with minimal additional overhead. Or you can omit the stall-warning tests as well and get a heavy no-op, your choice! Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org> |

rcutorture: Add nwriters module parameter
Believe it or not, there are people who would like to run rcutorture without actually torturing RCU. For example, some people would like to induce various types of stall warnings without placing any unnecessary additional overhead on their systems running in production. And rcutorture provides the stall_cpu, stall_cpu_holdoff, stall_no_softlockup, stall_cpu_irqsoff, stall_cpu_block, and stall_cpu_repeat module parameters in order to allow the user to force numerous types of stalls. In addition, rcutorture provides a great number of other module parameters to allow the user to reduce other overhead. But unfortunately, there is no way to turn of the rcu_torture_writer() portion of this torture test, which on my x86 laptop consumes somewhere between 40% and 45% of a CPU. Although this is quite lightweight for a torture test, it is not welcome on systems running production workloads. This commit therefore adds an nwriters module parameter that defaults to 1 but can be set to 0 in order to disable the rcu_torture_writer() portion of the torture test, but that cannot be set to any other value (that is what the fakewriters module parameter is for!). This reduces the overhead to well under 1% of a CPU, which is much more likely to be compatible with production workloads.

dma/swiotlb: decouple high watermark tracking from CONFIG_DEBUG_FS
Under heavy concurrent DMA traffic on CoCo VMs, inc_used_and_hiwater() performs an atomic_long_add_return() plus a CAS loop on the global used_hiwater, and dec_used() performs an atomic_long_sub() on total_used. All CPUs contend on the same cacheline, causing measurable throughput degradation at scale. Historically these counters were only compiled in under CONFIG_DEBUG_FS, which means production kernels with debugfs paid the atomic overhead unconditionally. Make the tracking boot-time opt-in instead so that it is disabled by default with near-zero overhead via static_call, and can be enabled via "swiotlb=track_hiwater" parameter on demand for debugging. Note that when CONFIG_DEBUG_FS is enabled but hiwater tracking is disabled, the "io_tlb_used" metric reports an approximate value rather than an instantaneously exact one.

x86/CPU: Add a tlbi= cmdline switch
With the recently found INVLPGB / TLBSYNC issue, there has been some
interest in disabling INVLPGB-based TLB flushing, in order to rule out
that CPU issue as a cause of userspace crashes.
Add a kernel command line option to control the TLB flushing behavior.
If the need arises, we will add a "tlbi=broadcast" for the case when TLB
invalidation broadcasts need to be explicitly selected, but this is not
needed now yet.
[ bp: Rewrite commit message, move to cpu/common.c, add documentation. ]

sunrpc: hardcode pool_mode to pernode, remove other modes
The SVC_POOL_AUTO/GLOBAL/PERCPU/PERNODE pool mode selection machinery was added when NUMA was new and the right default was unclear. The default has always been "global" (a single pool for the whole service); the other modes were only used when an admin explicitly set the pool_mode parameter or asked for "auto", which then picked a mode from the host topology. Today, pernode is the right choice everywhere: - On multi-NUMA hosts, it gives one pool per node with proper thread affinity and NUMA-local memory allocation. - On single-node hosts, pernode degenerates to exactly one pool, identical to the old "global" mode -- svc_pool_for_cpu() short- circuits when sv_nrpools <= 1, no CPU affinity is set, and memory is allocated from the single node. The percpu mode (one pool per CPU) created excessive pools relative to the number of threads most deployments run, and was only auto-selected in a narrow case (single node, >2 CPUs). Note that this changes the default behaviour on multi-NUMA hosts: a service that previously ran with a single global pool now gets one pool per NUMA node by default. This in turn means a host running fewer threads than it has NUMA nodes can end up with pools that have no threads. svc_pool_for_cpu() already falls back to a populated pool in that case, so transports are still serviced. Remove the SVC_POOL_* enum, mode selection heuristic, svc_pool_map_init_percpu(), and all mode-based switch statements. Simplify pool map functions to always use the pernode path. If pool map allocation fails, svc_pool_map_get() now returns 0 and service creation fails, rather than silently falling back to a single global pool. With the mode check gone, svc_pool_map_get_node() would dereference the shared pool_to[] for every service that starts a thread. Only services created via svc_create_pooled() hold a map reference that keeps that array allocated, so gate the lookup in svc_new_thread() on sv_is_pooled: unpooled services (e.g. lockd, the NFS callback) use NUMA_NO_NODE and never consult the map. The kmalloc_node() callers in svc_prepare_thread() already accept NUMA_NO_NODE, but __folio_alloc_node() requires a valid node id, so resolve NUMA_NO_NODE to numa_mem_id() for the scratch folio allocation. The module parameter and netlink interfaces are preserved for backward compatibility: - Writing any of the four documented mode names still succeeds silently - Reading always returns "pernode" - Writing to the module parameter emits a deprecation notice Update Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt to mark the pool_mode parameter deprecated and describe the new behaviour.

arch: arm64: add early_param idle=<wfi|yield|nop>
Overriding the idle mechanism might be useful for debugging and performance testing. Add a cmdline parameter for it, similar to the existing idle= parameter already present for the x86 and ppc architectures. It is also useful on platforms where the WFI instruction misbehaves, such as Apple Silicon SoCs. Generally, a misbehaving instruction should be treated as an erratum and patched using the alternatives framework. However, in the Apple Silicon case we need more flexibility because it is difficult to detect whether the erratum applies. For example, Linux VMs inside macOS have the same MIDR and may even seem like they're running in EL2 in the case of NV, but should continue using WFI (it's trapped and handled correctly by the hypervisor there). Thus, we prefer to let the m1n1 bootloader add the idle=nop parameter[1].

usb: core: Add quirk for 255-bytes initial config read
Certain third-party USB game controllers exposing (or spoofing) an Xbox
360-compatible interface (VID:PID 045e:028e) fail to enumerate under Linux.
The device disconnects from the bus without responding to the initial
GET_DESCRIPTOR(CONFIGURATION) request, and the kernel logs 'unable to read
config index 0 descriptor/start: -71'.
The device then falls back to a secondary Android HID mode (with a
different VID:PID), losing XInput functionality including rumble support.
The failure reproduces across multiple machines, host controller types, and
kernel versions including current mainline and LTS. The device enumerates
correctly and remains in XInput mode under Windows. Notably, the device
enumerates correctly in Android mode when the same 9-byte request
is issued for that mode's configuration descriptor, confirming the firmware
bug is specific to the XInput mode.
usbmon traces from Linux and Wireshark/USBPcap traces from Windows are
identical up to the point of failure, with no visible protocol-level
difference explaining the divergence. The root cause was identified when
Michal Pecio discovered via a QEMU bus-level capture that Windows does not
use wLength=9 for the initial config descriptor request; it uses
wLength=255. Alan Stern subsequently confirmed this with a bus
analyzer on a different USB 2.0 device, and Michal verified the behavior
goes back to Windows 95 OSR2.1.
So, add a new quirk flag USB_QUIRK_WINDOWS_CONFIG_REQ_SIZE which causes
usb_get_configuration() to issue a 255 byte sized configuration request
instead of USB_DT_CONFIG_SIZE (9) for the initial
GET_DESCRIPTOR(CONFIGURATION) request, mimicking long-standing Windows
behavior.
This patch intentionally does not add any new VID:PID entries using this
quirk. Some affected Xbox 360-compatible controllers spoof Microsoft's
VID:PID, while genuine Microsoft controllers already enumerate correctly
and do not require this quirk. Other affected clone devices use their own
VID:PID pairs and can be added individually as they are identified.

arm64: Add override for MMFR1.HAFDBS
In general it might be nice to have the ability to disable hardware access/dirty bit management for debugging or performance comparison purposes without having to rebuild the kernel. However once FEAT_HAFT comes into the picture we also start to have a real functional concern where the decision to use HAFT based on the boot CPUs can prevent SVA or late-onlining if SMMUs/CPUs are later found to lack HAFT support. To that end, add the appropriate MMFR1 override, with an easy "nohaft" alias for the significant case, partly since the feature/field naming isn't the most obvious, but also so it could potentially be redirected in future if someone wanted to attempt a higher-level means of turning off just HAFT usage independently from FEAT_HDBSS.

RISC-V: KVM: Add the eager_page_split module parameter
Add an eager_page_split module parameter for RISC-V KVM, following the same approach as on x86. This parameter controls whether eager page splitting is enabled. The default value is on. When eager page splitting is enabled, KVM proactively splits large pages (huge pages) into smaller pages when needed for dirty logging or other operations. Disabling it can be beneficial for VM workloads that rarely perform writes, or that only write to a small region of memory, as it allows huge pages to remain intact for read accesses.

PM: sleep: Allow disabling DPM watchdog by default
Introduce the "dpm_watchdog_enabled" module parameter to allow the DPM watchdog to be enabled or disabled at boot time and runtime. Additionally, introduce the CONFIG_DPM_WATCHDOG_ENABLED Kconfig option to set the default value of the module parameter at compile time. The primary motivation for this configurability resolves around Android GKI (Generic Kernel Image). We want to enable CONFIG_DPM_WATCHDOG in the GKI so the feature is available. However, because the GKI is shared across many different devices, we don't want to inadvertently affect devices that are unaware of this feature. This provides a way to compile it in, but keep it disabled by default for those devices via the kernel command line or module parameters. To maintain backward compatibility, CONFIG_DPM_WATCHDOG_ENABLED relies on `default y`. Previously, the DPM watchdog was always active if CONFIG_DPM_WATCHDOG was set. Defaulting this new option to 'y' ensures that the behavior remains unchanged for existing users and defconfigs when they upgrade.

mm/mempool: Untangle CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON abuse and switch to static key
The mempool subsystem historically wrapped its debugging logic inside an merely defines compile-time defaults for SLUB and caused two flaws: 1. On production kernels where CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG=y but CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON=n, mempool debugging was completely compiled out at compile time. 2. On kernels with CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON=y, mempool debugging stayed active even if a user explicitly disabled slub debugging at boot time. Clean up this mess by removing the #ifdef and switching to a runtime static key (mempool_debug_enabled), allowing mempool debugging to be toggled cleanly via its own boot parameter.

IMA and EVM still calculate the file data/metadata hashes respectively. - Introduce support for removing IMA measurement list records stored in kernel memory The IMA measurement list can grow large depending on policy, but removing records breaks remote attestation, unless they are safely preserved and made available for attestation requests. Until environments are prepared to preserve the measurement records, a new CONFIG_IMA_STAGING Kconfig option is introduced to guard against deletion. Several approaches for removing measurement list records were evaluated but rejected due to filesystem constraints, the introduction of a new critical data record, and locking concerns. Two methods are being upstreamed: staged deletion with confirmation, and staged deletion of N records without confirmation. Both methods minimize the period during which new measurements are blocked from being appended to the measurement list by staging the measurement list. A comparison of the two methods is included in the documentation. - Some code cleanup, and a couple of bug fixes * tag 'integrity-v7.2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/zohar/linux-integrity: doc: security: Add documentation of exporting and deleting IMA measurements ima: Support staging and deleting N measurements records ima: Add support for flushing the hash table when staging measurements ima: Add support for staging measurements with prompt ima: Introduce ima_dump_measurement() ima: Use snprintf() in create_securityfs_measurement_lists ima: Mediate open/release method of the measurements list ima: Introduce _ima_measurements_start() and _ima_measurements_next() ima: Introduce per binary measurements list type binary_runtime_size value ima: Introduce per binary measurements list type ima_num_records counter ima: Replace static htable queue with dynamically allocated array ima: Remove ima_h_table structure evm: terminate and bound the evm_xattrs read buffer integrity: Add support for sigv3 verification using ML-DSA keys integrity: Refactor asymmetric_verify for reusability integrity: Check that algo parameter is within valid range integrity: Check for NULL returned by asymmetric_key_public_key ima: return error early if file xattr cannot be changed ima: Fix sigv3 signature handling for EVM_IMA_XATTR_DIGSIG |

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.

Networking changes for 7.2.
Core & protocols
----------------
- Work on removing rtnl_lock protection throughout the stack continues.
In this chapter:
- don't use rtnl_lock for IPv6 multicast routing configuration
- don't take rtnl_lock in ethtool for modern drivers
- prepare Qdisc dump callbacks for rtnl_lock removal
- Support dumping just ifindex + name of all interfaces, under RCU.
It's a common operation for Netlink CLI tools (when translating
names to ifindexes) and previously required full rtnl_lock.
- Support dumping qdiscs and page pools for a specific netdev. Even tho
user space wants a dump of all netdevs, most of the time, the OOO
programming model results in repeating the dump for each netdev.
Which, in absence of a cache, leads to a O(n^2) behavior.
- Flush nexthops once on multi-nexthop removal (e.g. when device goes
down), another O(n^2) -> O(n) improvement.
- Rehash locally generated traffic to a different nexthop on retransmit
timeout.
- Honor oif when choosing nexthop for locally generated IPv6 traffic.
- Convert TCP Auth Option to crypto library, and drop non-RFC algos.
- Increase subflow limits in MPTCP to 64 and endpoint limit to 256.
- Support MPTCP signaling of IPv6 address + port (ADD_ADDR). We need
to selectively skip reporting of the standard TCP Timestamp option,
because they won't fit into the header space together (12 + 30 > 40).
- Support using bridge neighbor suppression, Duplicate Address
Detection, Gratuitous ARP and unsolicited NA forwarding - in EVPN
deployments, e.g. VXLAN fabrics (IPv4 and IPv6).
- Improve link state reporting for upper netdevs (e.g. macvlan) over
tunnel devices (again, mostly for EVPN deployments).
- Support binding GENEVE tunnels to a local address.
- Speed up UDP tunnel destruction (remove one synchronize_rcu()).
- Support exponential field encoding in multicast (IGMPv3 and MLDv2).
- Support attaching PSP crypto offload to containers (veth, netkit).
- Add a new IPSec Netlink message XFRM_MSG_MIGRATE_STATE that allows
migrating individual IPsec SAs independently of their policies.
The existing XFRM_MSG_MIGRATE is tightly coupled to policy+SA
migration, lacks SPI for unique SA identification, and cannot express
reqid changes or migrate Transport mode selectors. The new interface
identifies the SA via SPI and mark, supports reqid changes, address
family changes, encap removal, and uses an atomic create+install
flow under x->lock to prevent SN/IV reuse during AEAD SA migration.
- Implement GRO/GSO support for PPPoE.
- Convert sockopt callbacks in a number of protocols to iov_iter.
Cross-tree stuff
----------------
- Remove support for Crypto TFM cloning (unblocked after the TCP Auth
Option rework). This feature regressed performance for all crypto API
users, since it changed crypto transformation objects into reference-
-counted objects.
- Add FCrypt-PCBC implementation to rxrpc and remove it from the global
crypto API as obsolete and insecure.
Wireless
--------
- Major rework of station bandwidth handling, fixing issues with lower
capability than AP.
- Cleanups for EMLSR spec issues (drafts differed).
- More Neighbor Awareness Networking (Wi-Fi Aware) work (multicast,
schedule improvements, multi-station etc.)
- Some Ultra High Reliability (UHR) / IEEE 802.11bn (D1.4) work
(e.g. non-primary channel access, UHR DBE support).
- Fine Timing Measurement ranging (i.e. distance measurement) APIs.
Netfilter
---------
- Use per-rule hash initval in nf_conncount. This avoids unnecessary
lock contention with short keys (e.g. conntrack zones) in different
namespaces.
- Various safety improvements, both in packet parsing and object
lifetimes. Notably add refcounts to conntrack timeout policy.
Deletions
---------
- Remove TLS + sockmap integration. TLS wants to pin user pages
to avoid a copy, and sockmap wants to write to the input stream.
More work on this integration is clearly needed, and we can't find
any users (original author admitted that they never deployed it).
- Remove support for TLS offload with TCP Offload Engine (the far
more common opportunistic offload is retained). The locking looks
unfixable (driver sleeps under TCP spin locks) and people from
the vendor that added this are AWOL.
- Remove more ATM code, trying to leave behind only what PPPoATM needs,
AAL5 and br2684 with permanent circuits.
- Remove AppleTalk. Let it join hamradio in our out of tree protocol
graveyard, I mean, repository.
- Disable 32-bit x_tables compatibility (32bit binaries on 64bit kernel)
interface in user namespaces. To be deleted completely, soon.
- Remove 5/10 MHz support from cfg80211/mac80211.

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
"Core & protocols:
- Work on removing rtnl_lock protection throughout the stack
continues. In this chapter:
- don't use rtnl_lock for IPv6 multicast routing configuration
- don't take rtnl_lock in ethtool for modern drivers
- prepare Qdisc dump callbacks for rtnl_lock removal
- Support dumping just ifindex + name of all interfaces, under RCU.
It's a common operation for Netlink CLI tools (when translating
names to ifindexes) and previously required full rtnl_lock.
- Support dumping qdiscs and page pools for a specific netdev. Even
tho user space wants a dump of all netdevs, most of the time, the
OOO programming model results in repeating the dump for each
netdev. Which, in absence of a cache, leads to a O(n^2) behavior.
- Flush nexthops once on multi-nexthop removal (e.g. when device goes
down), another O(n^2) -> O(n) improvement.
- Rehash locally generated traffic to a different nexthop on
retransmit timeout.
- Honor oif when choosing nexthop for locally generated IPv6 traffic.
- Convert TCP Auth Option to crypto library, and drop non-RFC algos.
- Increase subflow limits in MPTCP to 64 and endpoint limit to 256.
- Support MPTCP signaling of IPv6 address + port (ADD_ADDR). We need
to selectively skip reporting of the standard TCP Timestamp option,
because they won't fit into the header space together (12 + 30 >
40).
- Support using bridge neighbor suppression, Duplicate Address
Detection, Gratuitous ARP and unsolicited NA forwarding - in EVPN
deployments, e.g. VXLAN fabrics (IPv4 and IPv6).
- Improve link state reporting for upper netdevs (e.g. macvlan) over
tunnel devices (again, mostly for EVPN deployments).
- Support binding GENEVE tunnels to a local address.
- Speed up UDP tunnel destruction (remove one synchronize_rcu()).
- Support exponential field encoding in multicast (IGMPv3 and MLDv2).
- Support attaching PSP crypto offload to containers (veth, netkit).
- Add a new IPSec Netlink message XFRM_MSG_MIGRATE_STATE that allows
migrating individual IPsec SAs independently of their policies.
The existing XFRM_MSG_MIGRATE is tightly coupled to policy+SA
migration, lacks SPI for unique SA identification, and cannot
express reqid changes or migrate Transport mode selectors.
The new interface identifies the SA via SPI and mark, supports
reqid changes, address family changes, encap removal, and uses an
atomic create+install flow under x->lock to prevent SN/IV reuse
during AEAD SA migration.
- Implement GRO/GSO support for PPPoE.
- Convert sockopt callbacks in a number of protocols to iov_iter.
Cross-tree stuff:
- Remove support for Crypto TFM cloning (unblocked after the TCP Auth
Option rework). This feature regressed performance for all crypto
API users, since it changed crypto transformation objects into
reference-counted objects.
- Add FCrypt-PCBC implementation to rxrpc and remove it from the
global crypto API as obsolete and insecure.
Wireless:
- Major rework of station bandwidth handling, fixing issues with
lower capability than AP.
- Cleanups for EMLSR spec issues (drafts differed).
- More Neighbor Awareness Networking (Wi-Fi Aware) work (multicast,
schedule improvements, multi-station etc.)
- Some Ultra High Reliability (UHR) / IEEE 802.11bn (D1.4) work
(e.g. non-primary channel access, UHR DBE support).
- Fine Timing Measurement ranging (i.e. distance measurement) APIs.

Things have calmed down a bit on the docs front, with no earthshaking
changes this time around:
- Ongoing work on the Japanese and Portuguese translations.
- Better integration of the MAINTAINERS file into the rendered documents,
including a search interface.
- A seemingly infinite supply of fixes for typos, minor grammatical issues,
and related problems that LLMs find with abandon.

KEYS: trusted: Debugging as a feature
TPM_DEBUG, and other similar flags, are a non-standard way to specify a feature in Linux kernel. Introduce CONFIG_TRUSTED_KEYS_DEBUG for trusted keys, and use it to replace these ad-hoc feature flags. Given that trusted keys debug dumps can contain sensitive data, harden the feature as follows: 1. In the Kconfig description postulate that pr_debug() statements must be used. 2. Use pr_debug() statements in TPM 1.x driver to print the protocol dump. 3. Require trusted.debug=1 on the kernel command line (default: 0) to activate dumps at runtime, even when CONFIG_TRUSTED_KEYS_DEBUG=y. Traces, when actually needed, can be easily enabled by providing trusted.dyndbg='+p' and trusted.debug=1 in the kernel command-line.

Scheduler updates for v7.2:
SMP load-balancing updates:
- A large series to introduce infrastructure for cache-aware load
balancing, with the goal of co-locating tasks that share data
within the same Last Level Cache (LLC) domain. By improving cache
locality, the scheduler can reduce cache bouncing and cache misses,
ultimately improving data access efficiency.
Implemented by Chen Yu and Tim Chen, based on early prototype work
by Peter Zijlstra, with fixes by Jianyong Wu, Peter Zijlstra and
Shrikanth Hegde.
- A series to simplify CONFIG_SCHED_SMT ifdef usage (Shrikanth Hegde)
Fair scheduler updates:
- A series to improve SD_ASYM_CPUCAPACITY scheduling by introducing
SMT awareness (Andrea Righi, K Prateek Nayak)
- A series to optimize cfs_rq and sched_entity allocation for
better data locality (Zecheng Li)
- A preparatory series to change fair/cgroup scheduling to a single
runqueue, without the final change (Peter Zijlstra)
- Auto-manage ext/fair dl_server bandwidth (Andrea Righi)
- Fix cpu_util runnable_avg arithmetic (Hongyan Xia)
- Optimize update_tg_load_avg()'s rate-limiting code
(Rik van Riel)
- Allow account_cfs_rq_runtime() to throttle current hierarchy
(K Prateek Nayak)
- Update util_est after updating util_avg during dequeue, to fix
the util signal update logic, which reduces signal noise
(Vincent Guittot)
Scheduler topology updates:
- Allow multiple domains to claim sched_domain_shared (K Prateek Nayak)
- Add parameter to split LLC (Peter Zijlstra)
Core scheduler updates:
- Use trace_call__<tp>() to save a static branch (Gabriele Monaco)
Scheduler statistics updates:
- Drop now-stale mul_u64_u64_div_u64() cputime over-approximation guard
(Nicolas Pitre)
Deadline scheduler updates:
- Reject debugfs dl_server writes for offline CPUs (Andrea Righi)
- Fix replenishment logic for non-deferred servers
(Yuri Andriaccio)
RT scheduling updates:
- Turn RT_PUSH_IPI default off for non PREEMPT_RT (Steven Rostedt)
- Update default bandwidth for real-time tasks to 1.0
(Yuri Andriaccio)
Proxy scheduling updates:
- A series to implement Optimized Donor Migration for Proxy Execution
(John Stultz, Peter Zijlstra)
- Various proxy scheduling cleanups and fixes
(Peter Zijlstra, K Prateek Nayak)
Misc fixes, improvements and cleanups by Aaron Lu, Andrea Righi,
Zenghui Yu, Chen Yu, Guanyou.Chen, John Stultz, Shrikanth Hegde,
Peter Zijlstra, Liang Luo and Yiyang Chen.
