kbuild: align modinfo section for Secureboot Authenticode EDK2 compat
Previously linker scripts would always generate vmlinuz that has sections aligned. And thus padded (correct Authenticode calculation) and unpadded calculation would be same. As in https://github.com/rhboot/pesign userspace tool would produce the same authenticode digest for both of the following commands: pesign --padding --hash --in ./arch/x86_64/boot/bzImage pesign --nopadding --hash --in ./arch/x86_64/boot/bzImage The commit 3e86e4d74c04 ("kbuild: keep .modinfo section in vmlinux.unstripped") added .modinfo section of variable length. Depending on kernel configuration it may or may not be aligned. All userspace signing tooling correctly pads such section to calculation spec compliant authenticode digest. However, if bzImage is not further processed and is attempted to be loaded directly by EDK2 firmware, it calculates unpadded Authenticode digest and fails to correct accept/reject such kernel builds even when propoer Authenticode values are enrolled in db/dbx. One can say EDK2 requires aligned/padded kernels in Secureboot. Thus add ALIGN(8) to the .modinfo section, to esure kernels irrespective of modinfo contents can be loaded by all existing EDK2 firmware builds.

Hildenbrand provides code cleanup in the pagemap code.
- The 5 patch series "add persistent huge zero folio support" from
Pankaj Raghav provides a block layer speedup by optionalls making the
huge_zero_pagepersistent, instead of releasing it when its refcount
falls to zero.
- The 3 patch series "kho: fixes and cleanups" from Mike Rapoport adds a
few touchups to the recently added Kexec Handover feature.
- The 10 patch series "mm: make mm->flags a bitmap and 64-bit on all
arches" from Lorenzo Stoakes turns mm_struct.flags into a bitmap. To
end the constant struggle with space shortage on 32-bit conflicting with
64-bit's needs.

THPs when advised" from David Hildenbrand "allows individual processes
to opt-out of THP=always into THP=madvise, without affecting other
workloads on the system".
It's a long story - the [1/N] changelog spells out the considerations.
- The 11 patch series "Add and use memdesc_flags_t" from Matthew Wilcox
gets us started on the memdesc project. Please see
https://kernelnewbies.org/MatthewWilcox/Memdescs and
https://blogs.oracle.com/linux/post/introducing-memdesc.

permits btrfs to account its metadata pages to the root cgroup, rather
than to the cgroups of random inappropriate tasks.
- The 2 patch series "mm/pageblock: improve readability of some
pageblock handling" from Wei Yang provides some readability improvements
to the page allocator code.
- The 11 patch series "mm/damon: support ARM32 with LPAE" from SeongJae

arch-specific implementations" from Sabyrzhan Tasbolatov moves KASAN
arch-specific initialization code into a common arch-neutral
implementation.

zspool - an indirection layer which now only redirects to a single thing
(zsmalloc).
- The 2 patch series "mm: task_stack: Stack handling cleanups" from
Pasha Tatashin makes a couple of cleanups in the fork code.
- The 37 patch series "mm: remove nth_page()" from David Hildenbrand
makes rather a lot of adjustments at various nth_page() callsites,
eventually permitting the removal of that undesirable helper function.
- The 2 patch series "introduce kasan.write_only option in hw-tags" from

from Kefeng Wang does some tidying in the hugetlb folio allocation code.
- The 12 patch series "mm: establish const-correctness for pointer
parameters" from Max Kellermann makes quite a number of the MM API
functions more accurate about the constness of their arguments. This
was getting in the way of subsystems (in this case CEPH) when they
attempt to improving their own const/non-const accuracy.

and state tracking which is expected to yield speed and space
improvements. This patchset itself yields a 5-20% performance benefit
in some situations.
- The 3 patch series "Some ptdesc cleanups" from Matthew Wilcox utilizes
the new memdesc layer to clean up the ptdesc code a little.
- The 3 patch series "Fix va_high_addr_switch.sh test failure" from

Suren Baghdasaryan addresses a couple of minor issues in relatively new
memory allocation profiling feature.
- The 3 patch series "Small cleanups" from Matthew Wilcox has a few
cleanups in preparation for more memdesc work.

warnings" from Muhammad Anjum adds that compiler check to selftests code
and fixes the fallout, by removing dead code.
- The 10 patch series "Improvements to Victim Process Thawing and OOM
Reaper Traversal Order" from zhongjinji makes a number of improvements
in the OOM killer: mainly thawing a more appropriate group of victim
threads so they can release resources.
- The 5 patch series "mm/damon: misc fixups and improvements for 6.18"
from SeongJae Park is a bunch of small and unrelated fixups for DAMON.
- The 7 patch series "mm/damon: define and use DAMON initialization
check function" from SeongJae Park implement reliability and
maintainability improvements to a recently-added bug fix.

non-idle ages" from SeongJae Park provides additional transparency to
userspace clients of the DAMON_STAT information.
- The 2 patch series "Expand scope of khugepaged anonymous collapse"
from Dev Jain removes some constraints on khubepaged's collapsing of
anon VMAs. It also increases the success rate of MADV_COLLAPSE against
an anon vma.
- The 2 patch series "mm: do not assume file == vma->vm_file in
compat_vma_mmap_prepare()" from Lorenzo Stoakes moves us further towards
removal of file_operations.mmap(). This patchset concentrates upon
clearing up the treatment of stacked filesystems.
- The 6 patch series "mm: Improve mlock tracking for large folios" from
Kiryl Shutsemau provides some fixes and improvements to mlock's tracking
of large folios. /proc/meminfo's "Mlocked" field became more accurate.
- The 2 patch series "mm/ksm: Fix incorrect accounting of KSM counters
during fork" from Donet Tom fixes several user-visible KSM stats
inaccuracies across forks and adds selftest code to verify these
counters.
- The 2 patch series "mm_slot: fix the usage of mm_slot_entry" from Wei
Yang addresses some potential but presently benign issues in KSM's
mm_slot handling.

Drivers: hv: Add CONFIG_HYPERV_VMBUS option
At present VMBus driver is hinged off of CONFIG_HYPERV which entails lot of builtin code and encompasses too much. It's not always clear what depends on builtin hv code and what depends on VMBus. Setting CONFIG_HYPERV as a module and fudging the Makefile to switch to builtin adds even more confusion. VMBus is an independent module and should have its own config option. Also, there are scenarios like baremetal dom0/root where support is built in with CONFIG_HYPERV but without VMBus. Lastly, there are more features coming down that use CONFIG_HYPERV and add more dependencies on it. So, create a fine grained HYPERV_VMBUS option and update Kconfigs for dependency on VMBus.

A set of changes to consolidate the generic TIF bits accross architectures
All architectures define the same set of generic TIF bits. This makes it pointlessly hard to add a new generic TIF bit or to change an existing one. Provide a generic variant and convert the architectures which utilize the generic entry code over to use it. The TIF space is divided into 16 generic bits and 16 architecture specific bits, which turned out to provide enough space on both sides. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQJHBAABCgAxFiEEQp8+kY+LLUocC4bMphj1TA10mKEFAmjaP78THHRnbHhAbGlu dXRyb25peC5kZQAKCRCmGPVMDXSYoTKyD/9NEg3DiN6aM959o1MhvhDk7jNdECXm QOvZ85wJYhCv3Pb7RSgMxJL/dR9aWV2b24TSzEeki0awbR4nPeUz82vExmgS7rWX 9rQLPrOZsrYd76IcAVoV5Ua/g48c+9TM8kLzoZFa9JEYMPmyTEiA3gy4bgab/aov L2b903ZrCNkWRKM1Wz5V8xdyPEzhE+cLhbWoPbeCqfzxqbv4+WWKQlPmqamQw+yq /61Xhq0tmx3+4hn1IB/Rc8yMTbAK0EwN7SHM+l7yaJ3ijlkGSele4S3mKAHv2I3c vODIFwdQ8pRbC1C5eMBnUKRm7Cmf+8CB3m+OIA5ghj10TPFiTUzQ6iG6nUSVniJm QB21LHYSWroeQBRibnT5k7RiW5QjtTQmcsjvO7S2rZ/7CkMr7LMu6kN1P0TSiOvc SKxs3MO72KaRU/JrEjLqvT2tvdpg2hpffg69U0jA1xCeFULE1jrqo3GwL8dPDk7z zKbC73JNg4QJDdi+hIn5nl0fRGVszLzkDum5eyCpCLY/W7BSiQ7q/ayzt9upsSOm uc7sqeIgelQMRDMoMNcQUsMnApT0JHOS74WQ03SfahZESj8eFoOb8pr7vaqu4lfi 6LV4fpwZPBTMDcQ36r2JLuUTqHNHNtWn4xXjQ72ngovIVUL9A2H0DqK+1JhLJ6yX tknZ9WVmWVf+JQ== =6L98 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'core-core-2025-09-29' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull TIF bit unification updates from Thomas Gleixner: "A set of changes to consolidate the generic TIF (thread info flag) bits accross architectures.

once: fix race by moving DO_ONCE to separate section
The commit c2c60ea37e5b ("once: use __section(".data.once")") moved
DO_ONCE's ___done variable to .data.once section, which conflicts with
DO_ONCE_LITE() that also uses the same section.
This creates a race condition when clear_warn_once is used:
Thread 1 (DO_ONCE) Thread 2 (DO_ONCE)
__do_once_start
read ___done (false)
acquire once_lock
execute func
__do_once_done
write ___done (true) __do_once_start
release once_lock // Thread 3 clear_warn_once reset ___done
read ___done (false)
acquire once_lock
execute func
schedule once_work __do_once_done
once_deferred: OK write ___done (true)
static_branch_disable release once_lock
schedule once_work
once_deferred:
BUG_ON(!static_key_enabled)
DO_ONCE_LITE() in once_lite.h is used by WARN_ON_ONCE() and other warning
macros. Keep its ___done flag in the .data..once section and allow resetting
by clear_warn_once, as originally intended.
In contrast, DO_ONCE() is used for functions like get_random_once() and
relies on its ___done flag for internal synchronization. We should not reset
DO_ONCE() by clear_warn_once.
Fix it by isolating DO_ONCE's ___done into a separate .data..do_once section,
shielding it from clear_warn_once.

asm-generic/io.h: Skip trace helpers if rwmmio events are disabled
With `CONFIG_TRACE_MMIO_ACCESS=y`, the `{read,write}{b,w,l,q}{_relaxed}()`
mmio accessors unconditionally call `log_{post_}{read,write}_mmio()`
helpers, which in turn call the ftrace ops for `rwmmio` trace events
This adds a performance penalty per mmio accessor call, even when
`rwmmio` events are disabled at runtime (~80% overhead on local
measurement).
Guard these with `tracepoint_enabled()`.

asm-generic: Provide generic TIF infrastructure
Common TIF bits do not have to be defined by every architecture. They can be defined in a generic header. That allows adding generic TIF bits without chasing a gazillion of architecture headers, which is again a unjustified burden on anyone who works on generic infrastructure as it always needs a boat load of work to keep existing architecture code working when adding new stuff. While it is not as horrible as the ignorance of the generic entry infrastructure, it is a welcome mechanism to make architecture people rethink their approach of just leaching generic improvements into architecture code and thereby making it accumulatingly harder to maintain and improve generic code. It's about time that this changes. Provide the infrastructure and split the TIF space in half, 16 generic and 16 architecture specific bits. This could probably be extended by TIF_SINGLESTEP and BLOCKSTEP, but those are only used in architecture specific code. So leave them alone for now.

mshv: Add support for a new parent partition configuration
Detect booting as an "L1VH" partition. This is a new scenario very similar to root partition where the mshv_root driver can be used to create and manage guest partitions. It mostly works the same as root partition, but there are some differences in how various features are handled. hv_l1vh_partition() is introduced to handle these cases. Add hv_parent_partition() which returns true for either case, replacing some hv_root_partition() checks.

bitops: Add __attribute_const__ to generic ffs()-family implementations
While tracking down a problem where constant expressions used by BUILD_BUG_ON() suddenly stopped working[1], we found that an added static initializer was convincing the compiler that it couldn't track the state of the prior statically initialized value. Tracing this down found that ffs() was used in the initializer macro, but since it wasn't marked with __attribute__const__, the compiler had to assume the function might change variable states as a side-effect (which is not true for ffs(), which provides deterministic math results). Add missing __attribute_const__ annotations to generic implementations of ffs(), __ffs(), fls(), and __fls() functions. These are pure mathematical functions that always return the same result for the same input with no side effects, making them eligible for compiler optimization. Build tested with x86_64 defconfig using GCC 14.2.0, which should validate the implementations when used by ARM, ARM64, LoongArch, Microblaze, NIOS2, and SPARC32 architectures.

ARM:
- Host driver for GICv5, the next generation interrupt controller for arm64, including support for interrupt routing, MSIs, interrupt translation and wired interrupts. - Use FEAT_GCIE_LEGACY on GICv5 systems to virtualize GICv3 VMs on GICv5 hardware, leveraging the legacy VGIC interface. - Userspace control of the 'nASSGIcap' GICv3 feature, allowing userspace to disable support for SGIs w/o an active state on hardware that previously advertised it unconditionally. - Map supporting endpoints with cacheable memory attributes on systems with FEAT_S2FWB and DIC where KVM no longer needs to perform cache maintenance on the address range. - Nested support for FEAT_RAS and FEAT_DoubleFault2, allowing the guest hypervisor to inject external aborts into an L2 VM and take traps of masked external aborts to the hypervisor. - Convert more system register sanitization to the config-driven implementation. - Fixes to the visibility of EL2 registers, namely making VGICv3 system registers accessible through the VGIC device instead of the ONE_REG vCPU ioctls. - Various cleanups and minor fixes. LoongArch: - Add stat information for in-kernel irqchip - Add tracepoints for CPUCFG and CSR emulation exits - Enhance in-kernel irqchip emulation - Various cleanups. RISC-V: - Enable ring-based dirty memory tracking - Improve perf kvm stat to report interrupt events - Delegate illegal instruction trap to VS-mode - MMU improvements related to upcoming nested virtualization s390x - Fixes x86: - Add CONFIG_KVM_IOAPIC for x86 to allow disabling support for I/O APIC, PIC, and PIT emulation at compile time. - Share device posted IRQ code between SVM and VMX and harden it against bugs and runtime errors. - Use vcpu_idx, not vcpu_id, for GA log tag/metadata, to make lookups O(1) instead of O(n). - For MMIO stale data mitigation, track whether or not a vCPU has access to (host) MMIO based on whether the page tables have MMIO pfns mapped; using VFIO is prone to false negatives - Rework the MSR interception code so that the SVM and VMX APIs are more or less identical. - Recalculate all MSR intercepts from scratch on MSR filter changes, instead of maintaining shadow bitmaps. - Advertise support for LKGS (Load Kernel GS base), a new instruction that's loosely related to FRED, but is supported and enumerated independently. - Fix a user-triggerable WARN that syzkaller found by setting the vCPU in INIT_RECEIVED state (aka wait-for-SIPI), and then putting the vCPU into VMX Root Mode (post-VMXON). Trying to detect every possible path leading to architecturally forbidden states is hard and even risks breaking userspace (if it goes from valid to valid state but passes through invalid states), so just wait until KVM_RUN to detect that the vCPU state isn't allowed. - Add KVM_X86_DISABLE_EXITS_APERFMPERF to allow disabling interception of APERF/MPERF reads, so that a "properly" configured VM can access APERF/MPERF. This has many caveats (APERF/MPERF cannot be zeroed on vCPU creation or saved/restored on suspend and resume, or preserved over thread migration let alone VM migration) but can be useful whenever you're interested in letting Linux guests see the effective physical CPU frequency in /proc/cpuinfo. - Reject KVM_SET_TSC_KHZ for vm file descriptors if vCPUs have been created, as there's no known use case for changing the default frequency for other VM types and it goes counter to the very reason why the ioctl was added to the vm file descriptor. And also, there would be no way to make it work for confidential VMs with a "secure" TSC, so kill two birds with one stone. - Dynamically allocation the shadow MMU's hashed page list, and defer allocating the hashed list until it's actually needed (the TDP MMU doesn't use the list). - Extract many of KVM's helpers for accessing architectural local APIC state to common x86 so that they can be shared by guest-side code for Secure AVIC. - Various cleanups and fixes. x86 (Intel): - Preserve the host's DEBUGCTL.FREEZE_IN_SMM when running the guest. Failure to honor FREEZE_IN_SMM can leak host state into guests. - Explicitly check vmcs12.GUEST_DEBUGCTL on nested VM-Enter to prevent L1 from running L2 with features that KVM doesn't support, e.g. BTF. x86 (AMD): - WARN and reject loading kvm-amd.ko instead of panicking the kernel if the nested SVM MSRPM offsets tracker can't handle an MSR (which is pretty much a static condition and therefore should never happen, but still). - Fix a variety of flaws and bugs in the AVIC device posted IRQ code. - Inhibit AVIC if a vCPU's ID is too big (relative to what hardware supports) instead of rejecting vCPU creation. - Extend enable_ipiv module param support to SVM, by simply leaving IsRunning clear in the vCPU's physical ID table entry. - Disable IPI virtualization, via enable_ipiv, if the CPU is affected by erratum #1235, to allow (safely) enabling AVIC on such CPUs. - Request GA Log interrupts if and only if the target vCPU is blocking, i.e. only if KVM needs a notification in order to wake the vCPU. - Intercept SPEC_CTRL on AMD if the MSR shouldn't exist according to the vCPU's CPUID model. - Accept any SNP policy that is accepted by the firmware with respect to SMT and single-socket restrictions. An incompatible policy doesn't put the kernel at risk in any way, so there's no reason for KVM to care. - Drop a superfluous WBINVD (on all CPUs!) when destroying a VM and use WBNOINVD instead of WBINVD when possible for SEV cache maintenance. - When reclaiming memory from an SEV guest, only do cache flushes on CPUs that have ever run a vCPU for the guest, i.e. don't flush the caches for CPUs that can't possibly have cache lines with dirty, encrypted data. Generic: - Rework irqbypass to track/match producers and consumers via an xarray instead of a linked list.

This has many caveats (APERF/MPERF cannot be zeroed on vCPU creation or saved/restored on suspend and resume, or preserved over thread migration let alone VM migration) but can be useful whenever you're interested in letting Linux guests see the effective physical CPU frequency in /proc/cpuinfo - Reject KVM_SET_TSC_KHZ for vm file descriptors if vCPUs have been created, as there's no known use case for changing the default frequency for other VM types and it goes counter to the very reason why the ioctl was added to the vm file descriptor. And also, there would be no way to make it work for confidential VMs with a "secure" TSC, so kill two birds with one stone - Dynamically allocation the shadow MMU's hashed page list, and defer allocating the hashed list until it's actually needed (the TDP MMU doesn't use the list) - Extract many of KVM's helpers for accessing architectural local APIC state to common x86 so that they can be shared by guest-side code for Secure AVIC - Various cleanups and fixes x86 (Intel): - Preserve the host's DEBUGCTL.FREEZE_IN_SMM when running the guest.

Updates for the timekeeping and VDSO code:
- Introduce support for auxiliary timekeepers
PTP clocks can be disconnected from the universal CLOCK_TAI reality
for various reasons including regularatory requirements for
functional safety redundancy.
The kernel so far only supports a single notion of time, which means
that all clocks are correlated in frequency and only differ by
offset to each other.
Access to non-correlated PTP clocks has been available so far only
through the file descriptor based "POSIX clock IDs", which are
subject to locking and have to go all the way out to the hardware.
The access is not only horribly slow, as it has to go all the way out
to the NIC/PTP hardware, but that also prevents the kernel to read
the time of such clocks e.g. from the network stack, where it is
required for TSN networking both on the transmit and receive side
unless the hardware provides offloading.
The auxiliary clocks provide a mechanism to support arbitrary clocks
which are not correlated to the system clock. This is not restricted
to the PTP use case on purpose as there is no kernel side association
of these clocks to a particular PTP device because that's a pure user
space configuration decision. Having them independent allows to
utilize them for other purposes and also enables them to be tested
without hardware dependencies.
To avoid pointless overhead these clocks have to be enabled
individualy via a new sysfs interface to reduce the overhead to a
single compare in the hotpath if they are enabled at the Kconfig
level at all.
These clocks utilize the existing timekeeping/NTP infrastructures,
which has been made possible over the recent releases by incrementaly
converting these infrastructures over from a single static instance
to a multi-instance pointer based implementation without any
performance regression reported.
The auxiliary clocks provide the same "emulation" of a "correct"
clock as the existing CLOCK_* variants do with an independent
instance of data and provide the same steering mechanism through the
existing sys_clock_adjtime() interface, which has been confirmed to
work by the chronyd(8) maintainer.
That allows to provide lockless kernel internal and VDSO support so
that applications and kernel internal functionalities can access
these clocks without restrictions and at the same performance as the
existing system clocks.
- Avoid double notifications in the adjtimex() syscall. Not a big issue,
but a trivial to avoid latency source.

unwind_user: Add user space unwinding API with frame pointer support
Introduce a generic API for unwinding user stacks. In order to expand user space unwinding to be able to handle more complex scenarios, such as deferred unwinding and reading user space information, create a generic interface that all architectures can use that support the various unwinding methods. This is an alternative method for handling user space stack traces from the simple stack_trace_save_user() API. This does not replace that interface, but this interface will be used to expand the functionality of user space stack walking. None of the structures introduced will be exposed to user space tooling. Support for frame pointer unwinding is added. For an architecture to support frame pointer unwinding it needs to enable CONFIG_HAVE_UNWIND_USER_FP and define ARCH_INIT_USER_FP_FRAME. By encoding the frame offsets in struct unwind_user_frame, much of this code can also be reused for future unwinder implementations like sframe.

tracing: Remove redundant config HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT_RECORD
Ftrace is tightly coupled with architecture specific code because it requires the use of trampolines written in assembly. This means that when a new feature or optimization is made, it must be done for all architectures. To simplify the approach, CONFIG_HAVE_FTRACE_* configs are added to denote which architecture has the new enhancement so that other architectures can still function until they too have been updated. The CONFIG_HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT was added to help simplify the DYNAMIC_FTRACE work, but now every architecture that implements DYNAMIC_FTRACE also has HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT set too, making it redundant with the HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE. Remove the HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT config and use DYNAMIC_FTRACE directly where applicable.

mm/hugetlb: remove prepare_hugepage_range()
Only mips and loongarch implemented this API, however what it does was checking against stack overflow for either len or addr. That's already done in arch's arch_get_unmapped_area*() functions, even though it may not be 100% identical checks. For example, for both of the architectures, there will be a trivial difference on how stack top was defined. The old code uses STACK_TOP which may be slightly smaller than TASK_SIZE on either of them, but the hope is that shouldn't be a problem. It means the whole API is pretty much obsolete at least now, remove it completely.

codetag: avoid unused alloc_tags sections/symbols
With CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING=n, vmlinux and all modules unnecessarily contain the symbols __start_alloc_tags and __stop_alloc_tags, which define an empty range.

alloc_tag: remove empty module tag section
The empty MOD_CODETAG_SECTIONS() macro added an incomplete .data section in module linker script, which caused symbol lookup tools like gdb to misinterpret symbol addresses e.g., __ib_process_cq incorrectly mapping to unrelated functions like below. (gdb) disas __ib_process_cq Dump of assembler code for function trace_event_fields_cq_schedule: Removing the empty section restores proper symbol resolution and layout, ensuring .data placement behaves as expected.

vdso/vsyscall: Split up __arch_update_vsyscall() into __arch_update_vdso_clock()
The upcoming auxiliary clocks need this hook, too. To separate the architecture hooks from the timekeeper internals, refactor the hook to only operate on a single vDSO clock. While at it, use a more robust #define for the hook override.

irqchip/gic-v5: Add GICv5 IWB support
The GICv5 architecture implements the Interrupt Wire Bridge (IWB) in order to support wired interrupts that cannot be connected directly to an IRS and instead uses the ITS to translate a wire event into an IRQ signal. Add the wired-to-MSI IWB driver to manage IWB wired interrupts. An IWB is connected to an ITS and it has its own deviceID for all interrupt wires that it manages; the IWB input wire number must be exposed to the ITS as an eventID with a 1:1 mapping. This eventID is not programmable and therefore requires a new msi_alloc_info_t flag to make sure the ITS driver does not allocate an eventid for the wire but rather it uses the msi_alloc_info_t.hwirq number to gather the ITS eventID.

alpha: regularize the situation with asm/param.h
The only reason why alpha can't do what sparc et.al. are doing is that include/asm-generic/param.h relies upon the value of HZ set for userland header in uapi/asm/param.h being 100. We need that value to define USER_HZ and we need that definition to outlive the redefinition of HZ kernel-side. And alpha needs it to be 1024, not 100 like everybody else. So let's add __USER_HZ to uapi/asm-generic/param.h, defaulting to 100 and used to define HZ. That way include/asm-generic/param.h can use that thing instead of open-coding it - it won't be affected by undefining and redefining HZ. That done, alpha asm/param.h can be removed and uapi/asm/param.h switched to defining __USER_HZ and EXEC_PAGESIZE and then including <asm-generic/param.h> - asm/param.h will resolve to uapi/asm/param.h, which pulls <asm-generic/param.h>, which will do the right thing both in the kernel and userland contexts.

mmu_gather: move tlb flush for VM_PFNMAP/VM_MIXEDMAP vmas into free_pgtables()
Commit b67fbebd4cf9 ("mmu_gather: Force tlb-flush VM_PFNMAP vmas") added a
forced tlbflush to tlb_vma_end(), which is required to avoid a race
between munmap() and unmap_mapping_range(). However it added some
overhead to other paths where tlb_vma_end() is used, but vmas are not
removed, e.g. madvise(MADV_DONTNEED).
Fix this by moving the tlb flush out of tlb_end_vma() into new
tlb_flush_vmas() called from free_pgtables(), somewhat similar to the
stable version of the original commit: commit 895428ee124a ("mm: Force TLB
flush for PFNMAP mappings before unlink_file_vma()").
Note, that if tlb->fullmm is set, no flush is required, as the whole mm is
about to be destroyed.

Dramatic performance benefits were seen in some real world cases. - The 2 patch series "JFS: Implement migrate_folio for jfs_metapage_aops" from Shivank Garg addresses a warning which occurs during memory compaction when using JFS. - The 4 patch series "move all VMA allocation, freeing and duplication logic to mm" from Lorenzo Stoakes moves some VMA code from kernel/fork.c into the more appropriate mm/vma.c. - The 6 patch series "mm, swap: clean up swap cache mapping helper" from Kairui Song provides code consolidation and cleanups related to the folio_index() function. - The 2 patch series "mm/gup: Cleanup memfd_pin_folios()" from Vishal Moola does that. - The 8 patch series "memcg: Fix test_memcg_min/low test failures" from Waiman Long addresses some bogus failures which are being reported by the test_memcontrol selftest. - The 3 patch series "eliminate mmap() retry merge, add .mmap_prepare hook" from Lorenzo Stoakes commences the deprecation of file_operations.mmap() in favor of the new file_operations.mmap_prepare(). The latter is more restrictive and prevents drivers from messing with things in ways which, amongst other problems, may defeat VMA merging. - The 4 patch series "memcg: decouple memcg and objcg stocks"" from Shakeel Butt decouples the per-cpu memcg charge cache from the objcg's one.

This is useful for isolating workloads on a multi-tenant system from certain classes of memory more consistently. - "Clean up split_huge_pmd_locked() and remove unnecessary folio pointers" from Gavin Guo provides minor cleanups and efficiency gains in in the huge page splitting and migrating code. - "Use kmem_cache for memcg alloc" from Huan Yang creates a slab cache for `struct mem_cgroup', yielding improved memory utilization. - "add max arg to swappiness in memory.reclaim and lru_gen" from Zhongkun He adds a new "max" argument to the "swappiness=" argument for memory.reclaim MGLRU's lru_gen. This directs proactive reclaim to reclaim from only anon folios rather than file-backed folios. - "kexec: introduce Kexec HandOver (KHO)" from Mike Rapoport is the first step on the path to permitting the kernel to maintain existing VMs while replacing the host kernel via file-based kexec. At this time only memblock's reserve_mem is preserved. - "mm: Introduce for_each_valid_pfn()" from David Woodhouse provides and uses a smarter way of looping over a pfn range. By skipping ranges of invalid pfns. - "sched/numa: Skip VMA scanning on memory pinned to one NUMA node via cpuset.mems" from Libo Chen removes a lot of pointless VMA scanning when a task is pinned a single NUMA mode. Dramatic performance benefits were seen in some real world cases. - "JFS: Implement migrate_folio for jfs_metapage_aops" from Shivank Garg addresses a warning which occurs during memory compaction when using JFS. - "move all VMA allocation, freeing and duplication logic to mm" from Lorenzo Stoakes moves some VMA code from kernel/fork.c into the more appropriate mm/vma.c. - "mm, swap: clean up swap cache mapping helper" from Kairui Song provides code consolidation and cleanups related to the folio_index() function. - "mm/gup: Cleanup memfd_pin_folios()" from Vishal Moola does that. - "memcg: Fix test_memcg_min/low test failures" from Waiman Long addresses some bogus failures which are being reported by the test_memcontrol selftest. - "eliminate mmap() retry merge, add .mmap_prepare hook" from Lorenzo Stoakes commences the deprecation of file_operations.mmap() in favor of the new file_operations.mmap_prepare(). The latter is more restrictive and prevents drivers from messing with things in ways which, amongst other problems, may defeat VMA merging. - "memcg: decouple memcg and objcg stocks"" from Shakeel Butt decouples the per-cpu memcg charge cache from the objcg's one. This is a step along the way to making memcg and objcg charging NMI-safe, which is a BPF requirement. - "mm/damon: minor fixups and improvements for code, tests, and documents" from SeongJae Park is yet another batch of miscellaneous DAMON changes. Fix and improve minor problems in code, tests and documents. - "memcg: make memcg stats irq safe" from Shakeel Butt converts memcg stats to be irq safe. Another step along the way to making memcg charging and stats updates NMI-safe, a BPF requirement. - "Let unmap_hugepage_range() and several related functions take folio instead of page" from Fan Ni provides folio conversions in the hugetlb code. * tag 'mm-stable-2025-05-31-14-50' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm: (285 commits) mm: pcp: increase pcp->free_count threshold to trigger free_high mm/hugetlb: convert use of struct page to folio in __unmap_hugepage_range() mm/hugetlb: refactor __unmap_hugepage_range() to take folio instead of page mm/hugetlb: refactor unmap_hugepage_range() to take folio instead of page mm/hugetlb: pass folio instead of page to unmap_ref_private() memcg: objcg stock trylock without irq disabling memcg: no stock lock for cpu hot-unplug memcg: make __mod_memcg_lruvec_state re-entrant safe against irqs memcg: make count_memcg_events re-entrant safe against irqs memcg: make mod_memcg_state re-entrant safe against irqs memcg: move preempt disable to callers of memcg_rstat_updated memcg: memcg_rstat_updated re-entrant safe against irqs mm: khugepaged: decouple SHMEM and file folios' collapse selftests/eventfd: correct test name and improve messages alloc_tag: check mem_profiling_support in alloc_tag_init Docs/damon: update titles and brief introductions to explain DAMOS selftests/damon/_damon_sysfs: read tried regions directories in order mm/damon/tests/core-kunit: add a test for damos_set_filters_default_reject() mm/damon/paddr: remove unused variable, folio_list, in damon_pa_stat() mm/damon/sysfs-schemes: fix wrong comment on damons_sysfs_quota_goal_metric_strs ... |

| to the linker. It should have been obvious at the time that this was a
| bad idea, given the need to sprinkle fixup_pointer() calls left and
| right to manipulate global variables (including non-pointer variables)
| without crashing.
|

btf: Allow mmap of vmlinux btf
User space needs access to kernel BTF for many modern features of BPF. Right now each process needs to read the BTF blob either in pieces or as a whole. Allow mmaping the sysfs file so that processes can directly access the memory allocated for it in the kernel. remap_pfn_range is used instead of vm_insert_page due to aarch64 compatibility issues.

To run in the VTL mode, Hyper-V drivers have to know what VTL the system boots in, and the arm64/hyperv code does not have the means to compute that. Refactor the code to hoist the function that detects VTL, make it arch-neutral to be able to employ it to get the VTL on arm64.

mm: implement for_each_valid_pfn() for CONFIG_FLATMEM
In the FLATMEM case, the default pfn_valid() just checks that the PFN is within the range [ ARCH_PFN_OFFSET .. ARCH_PFN_OFFSET + max_mapnr ). The for_each_valid_pfn() function can therefore be a simple for() loop using those as min/max respectively.

mm: call ctor/dtor for kernel PTEs
Since [1], constructors/destructors are expected to be called for all page table pages, at all levels and for both user and kernel pgtables. There is however one glaring exception: kernel PTEs are managed via separate helpers (pte_alloc_kernel/pte_free_kernel), which do not call the [cd]tor, at least not in the generic implementation. The most obvious reason for this anomaly is that init_mm is special-cased not to use split page table locks. As a result calling ptlock_init() for PTEs associated with init_mm would be wasteful, potentially resulting in dynamic memory allocation. However, pgtable [cd]tors perform other actions - currently related to accounting/statistics, and potentially more functionally significant in the future. Now that pagetable_pte_ctor() is passed the associated mm, we can make it skip the call to ptlock_init() for init_mm; this allows us to call the ctor from pte_alloc_one_kernel() too. This is matched by a call to the pgtable destructor in pte_free_kernel(); no special-casing is needed on that path, as ptlock_free() is already called unconditionally. (ptlock_free() is a no-op unless a ptlock was allocated for the given PTP.) This patch ensures that all architectures that rely on <asm-generic/pgalloc.h> call the [cd]tor for kernel PTEs. pte_free_kernel() cannot be overridden so changing the generic implementation is sufficient. pte_alloc_one_kernel() can be overridden using __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_ALLOC_ONE_KERNEL, and a few architectures implement it by calling the page allocator directly. We amend those so that they call the generic __pte_alloc_one_kernel() instead, if possible, ensuring that the ctor is called. A few architectures do not use <asm-generic/pgalloc.h>; those will be taken care of separately.

mm: pass mm down to pagetable_{pte,pmd}_ctor
Patch series "Always call constructor for kernel page tables", v2.
There has been much confusion around exactly when page table
constructors/destructors (pagetable_*_[cd]tor) are supposed to be called.
They were initially introduced for user PTEs only (to support split page
table locks), then at the PMD level for the same purpose. Accounting was
added later on, starting at the PTE level and then moving to higher levels
(PMD, PUD). Finally, with my earlier series "Account page tables at all
levels" [1], the ctor/dtor is run for all levels, all the way to PGD.
I thought this was the end of the story, and it hopefully is for user
pgtables, but I was wrong for what concerns kernel pgtables. The current
situation there makes very little sense:
* At the PTE level, the ctor/dtor is not called (at least in the generic
implementation). Specific helpers are used for kernel pgtables at this
level (pte_{alloc,free}_kernel()) and those have never called the
ctor/dtor, most likely because they were initially irrelevant in the
kernel case.
* At all other levels, the ctor/dtor is normally called. This is
potentially wasteful at the PMD level (more on that later).
This series aims to ensure that the ctor/dtor is always called for kernel
pgtables, as it already is for user pgtables. Besides consistency, the
main motivation is to guarantee that ctor/dtor hooks are systematically
called; this makes it possible to insert hooks to protect page tables [2],
for instance. There is however an extra challenge: split locks are not
used for kernel pgtables, and it would therefore be wasteful to initialise
them (ptlock_init()).
It is worth clarifying exactly when split locks are used. They clearly
are for user pgtables, but as illustrated in commit 61444cde9170 ("ARM:
8591/1: mm: use fully constructed struct pages for EFI pgd allocations"),
they also are for special page tables like efi_mm. The one case where
split locks are definitely unused is pgtables owned by init_mm; this is
consistent with the behaviour of apply_to_pte_range().
The approach chosen in this series is therefore to pass the mm associated
to the pgtables being constructed to pagetable_{pte,pmd}_ctor() (patch 1),
and skip ptlock_init() if mm == &init_mm (patch 3 and 7). This makes it
possible to call the PTE ctor/dtor from pte_{alloc,free}_kernel() without
unintended consequences (patch 3). As a result the accounting functions
are now called at all levels for kernel pgtables, and split locks are
never initialised.
In configurations where ptlocks are dynamically allocated (32-bit,
PREEMPT_RT, etc.) and ARCH_ENABLE_SPLIT_PMD_PTLOCK is selected, this
series results in the removal of a kmem_cache allocation for every kernel
PMD. Additionally, for certain architectures that do not use
<asm-generic/pgalloc.h> such as s390, the same optimisation occurs at the
PTE level.
===
Things get more complicated when it comes to special pgtable allocators
(patch 8-12). All architectures need such allocators to create initial
kernel pgtables; we are not concerned with those as the ctor cannot be
called so early in the boot sequence. However, those allocators may also
be used later in the boot sequence or during normal operations. There are
two main use-cases:
1. Mapping EFI memory: efi_mm (arm, arm64, riscv)
2. arch_add_memory(): init_mm
The ctor is already explicitly run (at the PTE/PMD level) in the first
case, as required for pgtables that are not associated with init_mm.
However the same allocators may also be used for the second use-case (or
others), and this is where it gets messy. Patch 1 calls the ctor with
NULL as mm in those situations, as the actual mm isn't available.
Practically this means that ptlocks will be unconditionally initialised.
This is fine on arm - create_mapping_late() is only used for the EFI
mapping. On arm64, __create_pgd_mapping() is also used by
arch_add_memory(); patch 8/9/11 ensure that ctors are called at all levels
with the appropriate mm. The situation is similar on riscv, but
propagating the mm down to the ctor would require significant refactoring.
Since they are already called unconditionally, this series leaves riscv
no worse off - patch 10 adds comments to clarify the situation.
From a cursory look at other architectures implementing arch_add_memory(),
s390 and x86 may also need a similar treatment to add constructor calls.
This is to be taken care of in a future version or as a follow-up.
===
The complications in those special pgtable allocators beg the question:
does it really make sense to treat efi_mm and init_mm differently in e.g.
apply_to_pte_range()? Maybe what we really need is a way to tell if an mm
corresponds to user memory or not, and never use split locks for non-user
mm's. Feedback and suggestions welcome!
This patch (of 12):
In preparation for calling constructors for all kernel page tables while
eliding unnecessary ptlock initialisation, let's pass down the associated
mm to the PTE/PMD level ctors. (These are the two levels where ptlocks
are used.)
In most cases the mm is already around at the point of calling the ctor so
we simply pass it down. This is however not the case for special page
table allocators:
* arch/arm/mm/mmu.c
* arch/arm64/mm/mmu.c
* arch/riscv/mm/init.c
In those cases, the page tables being allocated are either for standard
kernel memory (init_mm) or special page directories, which may not be
associated to any mm. For now let's pass NULL as mm; this will be refined
where possible in future patches.
No functional change in this patch.
