Linus Torvalds 12392d40a3 Merge tag 'ntfs-for-7.4-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linkinjeon/ntfs
Pull ntfs updates from Namjae Jeon:
 "New features:

   - Implement ioctls to list, read, write, and remove named streams on
     files and directories. Provide optional file:stream pathname access
     through streams_interface=windows, exposing streams as regular file
     descriptors with support for mmap, locking, truncation, and
     allocation.

   - Support file attribute queries and updates through FS_IOC_GETFLAGS
     and FS_IOC_SETFLAGS. Store immutable, append-only, nodump, and
     noatime settings in the private $LINUXFLAGS extended attribute and
     restore them when loading inodes. Also report compression,
     encryption, and the mount-wide case-folding policy as read-only
     attributes.

  Other changes:

   - Expose the existing NTFS volume serial number through FS_IOC_GETFSUUID
     by registering it as an eight-byte filesystem identifier.

   - Validate MFT I/O geometry and write MFT records and mirror data
     through mapped I/O units, keeping neighboring records intact when
     multiple records share a native 4Kn block. Track folio writeback
     until all BIOs complete, serialize raw record updates against
     writeback, and use the caller's requested completion mode.

   - Discard stale uninitialized cache data before extending initialized
     size, ensure shared mmap writes update initialized size after
     native 4Kn size extension, and synchronize attribute inode sizes
     after internal resizes. Keep VFS and NTFS sizes consistent when
     write-error rollback fails and record the volume error.

   - Wait for existing folio writeback before updating attribute data,
     require page alignment for full-page write optimizations, and
     include the final partial cluster in synchronous writes. Skip
     duplicate VFS page-cache truncation under the MFT record lock to
     avoid a truncate and writeback deadlock.

   - Restart allocation zone searches after failed hints and prevent
     contiguous allocation requests from returning additional disjoint
     runs that callers leave uninitialized. Allow fallocate after
     MFT-zone exhaustion and interrupt allocation loops only for fatal
     signals, avoiding spurious interruptions from io_uring task-work
     notifications.

   - Wait for the initial bitmap scan before extending the MFT bitmap,
     bound direct allocation candidates by the volume size, update
     free-space accounting, and undo only newly allocated clusters after
     run coalescing. Update attribute-list inode size before reserving
     additional space.

   - Hold runlist locks while expanding non-resident attributes, balance
     locks during MFT extension error handling, and avoid pointers
     invalidated by runlist reallocation. Keep source runlists available
     for rollback and allocate enough room for runlist markers and
     terminators.

   - Return errors for unmappable runlist fragments instead of treating
     them as holes or delayed allocation. Check non-resident attribute
     sizes against their allocation and fail mounts when $MFT needs
     extent records outside the decoded runlist to describe itself,
     preventing silent zero reads and mount hangs.

   - Load and validate $BadClus:$Bad at mount time and reserve known bad
     clusters before the free-space scan. Fall back to read-only
     operation when bad-cluster metadata cannot be validated and prevent
     subsequent read-write remounts.

   - Serialize volume flag updates and retain the dirty bit after
     metadata changes while the volume remains mounted read-write.
     Persist recorded errors after final metadata commits, fail ordinary
     read-only remounts on sync, commit, or flush errors, and retain the
     dirty bit on forced remounts.

   - Flush the device write cache when syncing directories and report
     flush failures from both file and directory fsync. Drain in-flight
     direct I/O before buffered write fallback and keep nonblocking
     requests from entering the blocking fallback path.

   - Mount hibernated volumes, or volumes whose hibernation state cannot
     be determined, read-only regardless of the errors= policy. Prevent
     mount-time and dirty-state updates from modifying hibernated
     volumes.

   - Validate complete EA chains, link zero-terminated tails when
     appending entries, retain the EA presence flag, and distinguish
     empty values from removal. Propagate lookup, write, and truncate
     errors, restore both EA attributes after failed updates, and shut
     down the volume if restoration fails.

   - Restore the previous ACL xattr when a subsequent WSL mode update
     fails, including replacement and removal cases. Record rollback
     failures so an unsuccessful permission change cannot silently leave
     inconsistent ACL and mode state.

   - Apply MST fixups to individual index blocks on large-page systems
     and use fixed 512-byte VCN units when an index block is smaller
     than its cluster. Support lookup and removal of POSIX names
     containing Windows-invalid characters and identify directory
     symlinks and junctions during enumeration.

   - Report the stored creation time for symbolic links through statx()
     when querying the link itself with AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW.

   - Use wider decompression offsets to avoid overflow on 64 KB pages,
     accept the standard sparse compression unit, and require the
     compressed-size field only on the first attribute extent. Block
     direct reads and skip readahead for encrypted files to prevent
     returning raw ciphertext.

   - Validate index entry offsets, logfile update sequence array counts,
     attribute-list sizes, and index collation key lengths to prevent
     out-of-bounds accesses, NULL pointer dereferences, and excessive
     allocations from corrupt volume metadata.

   - Derive FITRIM bitmap indexes from the page size and retain the full
     64-bit minimum discard length. Balance highmem mappings in logfile
     and MFT mirror checks and propagate specific errors from extent,
     attribute, and reparse operations.

   - Compare streams_interface with the mounted volume's setting during
     remount, make named-stream UAPI padding explicit, document stream
     access and Linux file attributes, and add the NTFS UAPI header to
     MAINTAINERS"

Document the two new Landlock permission categories, introduced with ABI
12, in the userspace API guide, admin guide, trace-event guide, UAPI
comments, and kernel security documentation.

The kernel security documentation generalizes the existing per-object
access-rights framing into three restriction models (handled_access_*,
handled_permissions, scoped) and states criteria for choosing among
them, so future permission or scope additions have a documented place to
land.

Namjae Jeon 48996054b7 ntfs: add named stream ioctls support
NTFS supports multiple named $DATA attributes, commonly known as alternate
data streams. Add NTFS-specific ioctls to list, read, write, and remove
named streams through an opened base file or directory.

The UAPI provides separate commands for each operation.

  - NTFS_IOC_STREAM_READ
  - NTFS_IOC_STREAM_WRITE
  - NTFS_IOC_STREAM_REMOVE
  - NTFS_IOC_LIST_STREAMS

Read and write requests use struct ntfs_stream to specify the stream name,
byte offset, and transfer length. Writes create the stream if it does not
already exist. A write failure after creation may leave the new stream
visible. It is not rolled back because another caller may already have
opened it. Userspace can remove it with NTFS_IOC_STREAM_REMOVE.

The list command returns variable-length entries containing each named
stream's data size, allocated size, and name. If the buffer is too small,
the command returns -ENOSPC without copying entries. bytes_returned reports
the required buffer size, and stream_count reports the number of streams.

Stream names use the mounted filesystem NLS by default. Set
NTFS_STREAM_FL_UTF16 to pass or receive raw UTF-16LE names. In NLS mode,
names that cannot be represented by the mounted character set are omitted
from the list. Use UTF-16 mode for lossless enumeration. Read and write
transfers are limited to 16 MiB per request.

Pull more MM updates from Andrew Morton:

 - "mm/rmap: index MAP_PRIVATE file-backed folios by anonymous pgoff"
   (Lorenzo Stoakes)

   Index MAP_PRIVATE file-backed folios by their anonymous page offset
   to resolve confusion around reverse mapping for zeroed and CoW'd
   file-backed memory.

   Use this new VMA anonymous page offset tracking to eliminate index
   conflicts and lay the foundation for scalable CoW performance
   improvements.

 - "promote mapped executable folios after first usage for MGLRU"
   (Baolin Wang)

   Make MGLRU's protection of mapped executable file folios more
   reliable. Follow the classical LRU's logic, promoting mapped
   executable file folios after their first usage to give executable
   code a better chance to stay in memory and improve workload
   performance.

 - "mm: vmscan: fix node reclaim ignoring swappiness parameter" (Ridong
   Chen)

   Fix per-node proactive reclaim interface's ignoring the swappiness
   parameter when CONFIG_MEMCG is disabled by consolidating
   sc_swappiness() into a single function that checks
   proactive_swappiness regardless of kernel configuration.

 - "mm/vmscan: reduce lru_lock contention via vmstat-derived
   scan-balance cost" (Usama Arif)

   Reduce lru_lock contention in the reclaim path by deriving
   scan-balance costs from vmstat counters rather than lock-acquired
   producer updates.

   Read and decay these cost signals on the reclaim side under a
   dedicated per-lruvec lock, reducing total LRU lock wait time by over
   60% without impacting scan throughput.

 - "zram: fix zram issues reported by sashiko" (Sergey Senozhatsky)

   Fix two low-risk zram bugs which Sashiko spotted in drive-by review.

 - "Honor XA_FLAGS_ACCOUNT in xas_split_alloc() and charge to folio's
   memcg" (Zi Yan)

   Fix xas_split_alloc() by enabling target folio memcg charging during
   splits and adding the missing __GFP_ACCOUNT flag for proper XArray
   node memory accounting.

 - "selftests/mm: use pattern matching in .gitignore" (Pratyush Mallick)

   Replace hardcoded binary names in selftests/mm/.gitignore with a
   generic pattern-matching rule to automatically ignore generated test
   files and avoid manual updates when adding new tests.

 - "mm/page_ext: remove pgdat_page_ext_init()" (Sang-Heon Jeon)

   Make the incompatibility between FLATMEM and NUMA explicit in
   mm/Kconfig and remove the unused pgdat_page_ext_init() function.

 - "zram: fix zstd error paths and add parameter validation" (Haoqin
   Huang)

   Clean up zram compression backends by removing redundant error
   cleanup, adding parameter and dictionary validation, auto-prefixing
   algorithm error logs, and resetting parameters prior to
   reinitialization.

 - "zram: fix stale scan bounds after reinitialization" (Longlong Xia)

   Prevent out-of-bounds slot accesses during concurrent zram resets by
   moving table scan bound calculations under dev_lock in
   writeback_store() and read_block_state().

 - "add anon mTHP collapse test cases" (Baolin Wang)

   Extend selftests helper functions to support arbitrary page orders
   and add new test cases and options for mTHP collapse in khugepaged.

 - "selftests/mm: Handle unsupported and transient test conditions"
   (Muhammad Usama Anjum)

   Update MM selftests to report a SKIP status instead of a failure when
   required kernel or filesystem features are unsupported, while adding
   retry logic for transient page migration errors.

 - "mm/zswap: Fixes and improves the zswap shrink" (Hao Jia)

   Fix the missing zswap global shrinker when CONFIG_MEMCG is disabled
   and extend shrink_memcg() to support batch writeback for improved
   writeback efficiency.

 - "alloc_tag: introduce IOCTL-based filtering for MAP" (Suren
   Baghdasaryan)

   Introduce an IOCTL-based binary interface for memory allocation
   profiling that enables kernel-side filtering before per-CPU counter
   aggregation.

   This eliminates the text-parsing overhead of /proc/allocinfo and
   provides up to a 20x speedup by transferring only filtered allocation
   data to userspace.

 - "better block swap batching and a different take on swap_ops v5"
   (Christoph Hellwig)

   Refactor block swap I/O to use swap_iocb for batching instead of
   single-bio requests and rebase the swap_ops interface, achieving
   faster swap throughput during kernel builds.

 - "mm: kmemleak: reduce transient false positives by confirming leaks"
   (Catalin Marinas)

   Reduce false-positive kmemleak reports by combining two kmemleak
   enhancements that add a second confirmation scan and a configurable
   minimum unreferenced scan count module parameter.

 - "mm: kmemleak: default min_unref_scans to 2 for verbose kernels"
   (Breno Leitao)

   Auto-scanning kernels can generate false-positive memory leak reports
   on single scans, so this patch defaults min_unref_scans to 2 when
   CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK_VERBOSE is enabled to require a second
   confirming scan.

 - "swap_ops updates" (Christoph Hellwig)

   Batching I/O for synchronous swap devices causes performance
   regressions and filesystem-based swap suffers from double-indirection
   overhead. This series resolves both issues by reintroducing per-folio

Suren Baghdasaryan 1d581ab234 alloc_tag: add ioctl to /proc/allocinfo
Patch series "alloc_tag: introduce IOCTL-based filtering for MAP", v8.

Currently, memory allocation profiling data is primarily exposed through
/proc/allocinfo.  While useful for manual inspection, this text-based
interface poses challenges for production monitoring and large-scale
analysis:

1. Userspace must parse large amounts of text to extract specific
fields.
2. To find specific tags, userspace must read the entire dataset,
requiring many context switches and high data copying.
3. The kernel currently aggregates per-CPU counters for every allocation
size, even those the user intends to filter out immediately.

This series introduces a new IOCTL-based binary interface for allocinfo
that supports kernel-side filtering.  By allowing the user to specify a
filter mask, we significantly reduce the work performed in-kernel and the
amount of data transferred to userspace.  The IOCTL mechanism was chosen
for allocinfo to address the per-CPU counter aggregation bottleneck.  A
traditional read() operation must report the total allocation count and
sizes for every code tag in the system.  Doing so requires iterating
across all CPUs to sum their per-CPU counters for thousands of tags, which
introduces substantial runtime overhead.

The IOCTL interface allows userspace to push selective filtering criteria
directly into the kernel before the per-CPU counter aggregation.  The
kernel aggregates per-CPU counters only for a small subset of tags that
match the filter.  This results in significant performance improvement.

Beyond fast filtered retrieval, the IOCTL foundation allows introducing a
context capture mechanism in the future to capture the context for
specific allocations.

Performance measurements were conducted on an Intel Xeon Platinum 8481C
(224 CPUs) with caches dropped before each run.

The IOCTL mechanism shows a ~20x performance improvement for
filtered queries. The kernel avoids the expensive per-CPU counter
aggregation (alloc_tag_read) for any tags that fail the initial string
or location filters.

Scenario 1: Specific File Filtering (arch/x86/events/rapl.c)
1. Traditional (cat /proc/allocinfo | grep): 22ms (sys)
2. IOCTL Interface: 1ms (sys)

Scenario 2: Compound Filtering (Filename + Size)
1. Traditional: (cat ... | grep | awk): 21ms (sys)
2. IOCTL Interface: 1ms (sys)

Scenario 3: Size-Based Filtering (min_size = 1MB)
1. Traditional: (cat ... | awk): 21ms (sys)
2. IOCTL Interface: 14ms (sys)


This patch (of 6):

Add the following ioctl commands for /proc/allocinfo file:

ALLOCINFO_IOC_CONTENT_ID - gets content identifier which can be used to
check whether the file content has changed specifically due to module
load/unload.  Every time a module is loaded / unloaded, the returned value
will be different.  By comparing the identifier value at the beginning and
at the end of the content retrieval operation, users can validate
retrieved information for consistency.

ALLOCINFO_IOC_GET_AT - gets the record at the specified position.  This is
the position of a record in /proc/allocinfo.

ALLOCINFO_IOC_GET_NEXT - gets the record next to the last retrieved one. 
If no records were previously retrieved, returns the first record.

Note, function file and module names often have the same prefixes,
therefore when filtering for them, we compare the last 64 characters to
minimize the chances of name collisions.

   Leitao)

   Introduce an opt-in vm.panic_on_unrecoverable_memory_failure sysctl
   that immediately panics the kernel on unrecoverable memory errors in
   kernel-owned pages to preserve error context and prevent delayed,
   silent data corruption

 - "mm/damon: refactor damon_{start,stop,commit}() for simple error

   fail, eliminating the need for complex and error-prone caller-side
   cleanup code

 - "Keep tail page private zero at free and folio split" (Zi Yan)

   Add checks to ensure tail_page->private is zero when freeing compound
   or high-order pages and when promoting tail pages during large folio
   splits. By validating these fields at free and split time, it allows
   the removal of redundant private field clearing inside
   prep_compound_tail()

 - "mm: drop redundant lru_add_drain in anon folio reuse paths" (Barry
   Song)

   Eliminate redundant lru_add_drain() calls in
   wp_can_reuse_anon_folio() and do_swap_page() to reduce LRU lock
   contention and system overhead

   By validating folio refcounts against the LRU cache before draining
   and removing unnecessary drains in the swap path, it achieves up to a
   30.5% reduction in drain calls during heavy swap workloads

 - "mm: clean up folio LRU and swap declarations" (Jianyue Wu)

 - "mm: remove CONFIG_HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE (Part 2)" (David
   Hildenbrand)

   Remove the remaining pieces of CONFIG_HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE,
   performing some smaller cleanups around freeing of reserved vmemmap
   pages on the way.

 - "mm/damon: update probe hits for runtime parameter commits" (SJ Park)

   Ensure that DAMON's probe_hits attribute counter is properly updated
   when monitoring intervals are changed at runtime, matching the
   behavior of nr_accesses. To achieve this, it refactors and renames
   existing helper functions for shared use, applies the updates to
   probe_hits, and handles edge cases in damon_probe_hits_mvsum() to
   maintain measurement accuracy.

 - "KSM: performance optimizations for rmap_walk_ksm" (xu xin)

   Resolve a severe KSM reverse-mapping performance bottleneck where
   thousands of split VMAs sharing a single anon_vma cause extended lock
   contention.

   By adding an interval-filtering check during the rmap walk, it
   reduces worst-case anon_vma lock hold times from over 500ms down to
   under 2ms, preventing application freezes and latency spikes under
   memory pressure.

 - "mm: split a couple of headers from internal.h" (Mike Rapoport)

   Split declarations related to mm_init, memblock, vmalloc and sparse
   into new headers

 - "KSM: use linear_page_index in collect_procs_ksm()" (xu xin)

   Apply the interval tree optimization from rmap_walk_ksm() to
   collect_procs_ksm() to avoid iterating over non-matching VMAs during
   KSM memory error handling.

   It hoists loop-invariant address initialization and restricts the
   anon_vma_interval_tree_foreach walk to a targeted page offset range,
   reducing redundant checks and improving lookup efficiency.

 - "selftests/mm: avoid false failures in hugetlb and KSM tests" (Sayali
   Patil)

   Fix issues in the hugetlb and KSM MM selftest categories that can
   report failures when the prerequisites for the tests are not
   satisfied

 - "mm/damon: introduce data attributes only monitoring" (SJ Park)

   Introduce attribute-weighted region management in DAMON, allowing
   users to prioritize specific data attributes (such as page sizes or
   cgroups) over or instead of access monitoring.

   By assigning weights to attribute probes, DAMON can completely
   disable access tracking and adjust monitoring regions based on
   weighted probe-hit counters to optimize monitoring quality for
   attribute-focused workloads.

 - "mm/hmm: Add mmap lock-drop support for userfaultfd-backed mappings"
   (Stanislav Kinsburskii)

   Extend hmm_range_fault() to support userfaultfd-backed regions by
   allowing the mmap lock to be dropped during fault handling via a new
   hmm_range_fault_locked() helper.

   By accepting a locked pointer and signaling retry status when lock
   release occurs, it enables page fault resolution in userfaultfd
   regions while preserving backward compatibility for existing callers.

 - "mm: make VMA page offset handling more consistent" (Lorenzo Stoakes)

   Clean up and standardize how vma->vm_pgoff is accessed and
   manipulated across file-backed and anonymous mappings in the kernel

   It introduces dedicated helper functions such as vma_start_pgoff(),
   vma_end_pgoff(), vma_set_pgoff() and linear_page_delta() while
   renaming rmap interval tree helpers to better reflect their
   functionality.

   These changes establish a cleaner foundation for future work that
   will unify virtual page offset indexing for all anonymous and CoW'd
   folios.

 - "mm: handle device-private PMDs in walk callbacks" (Usama Arif)

   Address kernel panics and state corruption caused by MM walk
   callbacks reaching non-present device-private PMD swap entries
   created during HMM migrations

   It ensures that functions which acquire pmd_trans_huge_lock()
   properly recognize device-private PMDs instead of assuming a present
   THP or a standard migration entry.

 - "mm/rmap: Refactor try_to_unmap_one" (Dev Jain)

   Refactor try_to_unmap_one by modularizing Hugetlb,
   anonymous-lazyfree, and anonymous-swapbacked logic into dedicated
   functions, laying the structural groundwork for batched anonymous
   large folio unmapping.

 - "Docs/ABI/damon: sysfs ABI document fixes and additions" (Song Hu)

   Fix typos and fills in missing entries in the DAMON sysfs ABI
   document

 - "dax/kmem: atomic whole-device hotplug via sysfs" (Gregory Price)

   Introduce an atomic sysfs state attribute and supporting DAX/MM
   infrastructure to prevent userland races when offlining and removing
   entire memory regions

   By adding an unplugged state alongside standard online modes, it
   enables whole-device atomic hotplug control while preserving backward
   compatibility.

 - "mm: convert more vm_flags_t users to vma_flags_t" (Lorenzo Stoakes)

   Continue transitioning the kernel from the deprecated vm_flags_t type
   to vma_flags_t across core memory management infrastructure.

   It replaces legacy type usage in core functions such as do_mmap(),
   unmapped area allocation, mm->def_vma_flags, and VMA operations like
   mlock, mprotect, and mremap.

 - "Two small patches to clean up mm/mm_slot.h" (xu xin)

   Refactor mm_slot.h by introducing mm_slot_remove() to unify duplicate
   slot deletion sequences in khugepaged and KSM. It also adds code
   documentation explaining why mm_slot_lookup and mm_slot_insert must
   remain as preprocessor macros rather than static inline functions.

 - "mm/damon/core: hide core-private struct fields" (SJ Park)

   Clean up DAMON core structures by consistently marking internal-only
   fields with private: comment tags to prevent improper direct access
   from outer layers.

   It enforces encapsulation across core structures including
   damon_region, damon_target, and damon_ctx and updates DAMON_SYSFS to
   interact through approved access APIs instead of exposing raw struct
   members.

 - "mm/damon: unurgent fixes for infinite loop, NULL de-ref and races"
   (SJ Park)

   Address potential infinite loops, NULL dereferences, and race
   conditions identified in DAMON

   It fixes an infinite loop triggered by extreme user configurations, a
   NULL pointer dereference within unit tests and minor monitoring
   accuracy degradation caused by subtle runtime races.

 - "mm/page_alloc: fixes for free_pages_nolock() on RT/UP" (Brendan
   Jackman)

   Fix an NMI safety flaw in __free_frozen_pages() where freeing pages
   on non-SMP or PREEMPT_RT kernels can bypass can_spin_trylock() checks
   via non-PCP or isolated migration paths.

   It also resolves potential kernel crashes and privilege escalation
   risks triggered when BPF tracing runs in NMI context alongside memory
   hotplug or large allocation frees.

 - "mm/page_alloc: couple of followups for recent cleanups" (Brendan
   Jackman)

   Clean up and update page allocator nomenclature, documentation, and
   debug assertions.

   It aligns internal FPI_ flags with the public "nolock" naming
   convention, removes outdated internal implementation details from
   high-level page allocator comments, and eliminates obsolete
   VM_BUG_ON() assertions in allocation paths.

 - "mm/mseal: further cleanups" (Lorenzo Stoakes)

   Refactor and simplify the mseal implementation by clarifying API
   boundaries and removing unnecessary code complexity.

   It replaces generic do_mseal() usage outside the syscall with a
   dedicated mseal_mmap_page_zero() helper for MMAP_PAGE_ZERO,
   eliminates mm_struct parameters to enforce that sealing applies only
   to current->mm, and streamlines overall logic and comments with no
   functional changes intended.

 - "mm/vmscan: fix swappiness=max and clean up per-node proactive
   reclaim" (Ridong Chen)

   Resolve reclaim behavior bugs and clean up function parameters across
   memory reclaim paths

   It fixes swappiness=max in both standard reclaim and MGLRU so
   unswappable anonymous memory no longer falls back to evicting page
   cache, ensures reclaim_store() returns accurate error codes instead
   of collapsing all failures into -EAGAIN, and removes the obsolete
   gfp_mask parameter from __node_reclaim().

 - "mm: mincore: misc cleanups" (Kefeng Wang)

   Clean up and simplifies the mincore code. Most importantly, it
   removes the historical special behavior that always reports VM_PFNMAP

   in DAMON KUnit tests during test failure handling.

 - "cleanup for stable_page_flags()" (Jinjiang Tu)

   Clean up and refactor stable_page_flags() used by /proc/kpageflags
   without altering functionality.

   It uses BIT_ULL() to prevent shift-overflow warnings on 64-bit flag
   bits, converts folio-specific flag checks to standard folio_test_*()

 - "mm: fix reclaim storms in defrag_mode" (Johannes Weiner)

   Address severe performance regressions, swap storms, and spurious
   OOMs caused by vm.defrag_mode=1 under high memory pressure in Meta
   production

   It updates the page allocator slowpath so non-movable allocation
   requests actively trigger direct reclaim and direct compaction at
   pageblock_order scale, allowing them to claim whole pageblocks rather
   than spinning unproductively.

 - "zram: lockmap tweaks" (Sebastian Siewior)

   Optimize and fix lockdep tracking for zram devices by consolidating
   per-entry lockmaps and isolate lock classes across multiple instances

   This reduces memory overhead by replacing per-entry lockdep_map
   instances with a single map per struct zram, and assigns a dynamic
   lock_class_key to each instance to prevent false deadlock reports
   when different zram devices are backed by distinct filesystems.

Mickaël Salaün 172b6a6d84 landlock: Document tracepoints
Until now, Landlock observability documentation covered only audit
records.  The tracepoints added by the previous commits introduce a
second channel with different semantics (firing regardless of audit
configuration and domain log flags, exposing the full ruleset and domain
state to eBPF via BTF), which kernel developers, administrators, and
userspace tool authors need to discover and compare against audit.

Add a dedicated "Landlock Trace Events" reference covering the event
categories, enabling events via tracefs, ruleset versioning, eBPF access
through BPF_RAW_TRACEPOINT, and the same_exec and logged denial fields
(logged being the kernel's audit-logging decision, so a stateless ftrace
filter can select the denials audit would record with logged==1).
Cross-reference it from the administrator, kernel-internals, and
userspace API documents, contrasting tracepoints with audit: when each
channel is preferred, what each guarantees, and how NOAUDIT hooks and
audit rate limiting affect them.

Also document the relational other-party domain fields the scope and
ptrace denial tracepoints expose (tracee_domain, target_domain,
peer_domain; 0 when the other party is unsandboxed), so a consumer can
resolve them against the lifecycle events and reproduce the two-domain
verdict.

Niklas Söderlund b562e72bdb media: rppx1: Add framework to support Dreamchip RPPX1 ISP
Add a framework driver for Dreamchip RPPX1 ISP. The driver aims to
provide a framework for other V4L2 based drivers to drive the RPPX1
functionality. The reason for this split is that the RPPX1 IP itself do
not provide any DMA engines to drive data to/from the device, instead it
depends on other IP blocks to implement these features.

While the peripherals around the RPPX1 ISP used in different designs and
by different vendors are different the RPPX1 core itself is the same.
For this reason the framework solution to be able to split the Dreamchip
RPPX1 driver from vendors usage of it have been picked in hope to reduce
duplication of the common parts.

The design is to try and keep the surface of this framework as small as
possible. The intention of this change is to be able to fill all needs
of this.

  * Two functions to create and destroy a RPPX1 instance, rppx1_create()
    and rppx1_destory(). These are intended to be called in the users
    probe and remove code paths.

  * Two functions to start and stop the RPPX1 processing, rppx1_start()
    and rppx1_stop(). These are intended to be called in the users
    stream on and stream off code paths.

  * One function to ask the RPPX1 to process parameters buffer prepared
    by user space, rppx1_params(). The intention is to call this
    function when the parameter buffer is queued to the V4L2 driver and
    the result stored by the driver until the time it needs to be
    written to the RPPX1. It's the users responsibility to write it
    either using MMIO or other means.

  * One function to fill in a statistic buffer based on the current
    status of the RPPX1, rppx1_stats_fill_isr(). The intention is that
    the user call's this in its interrupt handler when it knows the
    RPPX1 is done processing a frame.

  * One function to ack and retrieve the interrupts generated by the
    RPPX1, rppx1_interrupt(). The intention is to call this function
    when the users interrupt handler detects the RPPX1 have raised and
    interrupt. There is no need for the user to understand, or act, on
    the actual RPPX1 interrupt, but it can if it wants too.

The initial support in the framework is limited and do not implement any
ISP processing algorithms other then configuring the RPPX1 to process
any Bayer (8-, 10, or 12-bit) image and produce either a RGB or YUYV
output. It do however probe all function blocks of the RPPX1 and provide
an interface to interact with both parameter and statistic bufferers.
The user of the framework will not change as algorithms for the
different function blocks of the ISP are being added.

Ming Qian 49af0c7cad media: v4l2-ctrls: Allow unknown HDR10 white point and luminance
SMPTE ST 2086 defines the nominal ranges for mastering display
chromaticity and luminance values. Its Annex A also documents that
CTA 861-G uses zero maximum and minimum luminance values to signal
that the corresponding values are unknown, and the xy chromaticity
coordinate (0, 0) to signal that the white point chromaticity is
unknown.

The V4L2 HDR10 mastering display compound control currently rejects
these values. Consequently, an unknown white point or luminance value
prevents the entire compound control from being updated, making the
other valid mastering display metadata unavailable to userspace.

Accept (0, 0) as an unknown white point and zero as an unknown maximum
or minimum mastering luminance. Continue to reject partially zero white
point coordinates and non-zero values outside the nominal ranges.
Display primary validation remains unchanged.

Document the newly accepted unknown values in the V4L2 userspace API.

Linus Torvalds b85966adbf Merge tag 'net-next-7.2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next
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.

  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.

  Drivers:

   - Software:
       - Support DEVMEM/DMABUF Tx over NETMEM_TX_NO_DMA devices (netkit)
       - bonding: add knob to strictly follow 802.3ad for link state

   - New drivers:
       - Alibaba Elastic Ethernet Adaptor (cloud vNIC).

             tunnels

           - avoid over-copying payload to the skb's linear part (up to
             60% win for LRO on slow CPUs like ARM64 V2)
           - expose more per-queue stats over the standard API
           - support additional, unprivileged PFs in the DPU
             configuration
           - support Socket Direct (multi-PF) with switchdev offloads
           - add a pool / frag allocator for DMA mapped buffers for
             control objects, save memory on systems with 64kB page size
           - take advantage of the ability to dynamically change RSS
             table size, even when table is configured by the user
           - increase the max RSS table size for even traffic
             distribution

Tingmao Wang 29752205db landlock: Add API support and docs for the quiet flags
Adds the UAPI for the quiet flags feature (but not the implementation
yet).

Even though currently LANDLOCK_ADD_RULE_QUIET only affects audit
logging, in the future this can also be used as part of a supervisor
mechanism, where it will also suppress denial notifications on a
per-object basis.  Thus the name is deliberately generic, as opposed to
e.g. LANDLOCK_ADD_RULE_LOG_QUIET.

According to pahole, even after adding the struct access_masks
quiet_masks in struct landlock_hierarchy, the u32 log_* bitfield still
only has a size of 2 bytes, so there's minimal wasted space.

Mickaël Salaün 143c656e25 landlock: Demonstrate best-effort allowed_access filtering
Landlock provides best-effort sandboxing across ABI versions:
applications request the rights they need, and on older kernels the
unsupported rights are silently dropped from handled_access_* by the
documented compatibility switch.  The recommended pattern for
landlock_add_rule(2) calls is to mirror this filtering at the rule
level, which wasn't explicitly described in the exemple.

Show the pattern explicitly in the filesystem and network rule examples
by masking each rule's allowed_access against the ruleset's
handled_access_* and adding the rule only when at least one bit remains
set.  This makes the recommended best-effort pattern self-documenting.

The dtlk driver supports the RC Systems DoubleTalk PC ISA speech

received tree-wide fixes and drive-by cleanups in the entire Git
history (since Linux 2.6.12-rc2). The same hardware is supported by
drivers/accessibility/speakup for screen reader use, but that

Giovanni Cabiddu d237230728 crypto: qat - remove unused character device and IOCTLs
The QAT driver exposes a character device (qat_adf_ctl) with IOCTLs
for device configuration, start, stop, status query and enumeration.
These IOCTLs are not part of any public uAPI header and have no known
in-tree or out-of-tree users. Device lifecycle is already managed via
sysfs.

The ioctl interface also increases the attack surface and is the
subject of a number of bug reports.

Remove the character device, the IOCTL definitions, and the related
data structures (adf_dev_status_info, adf_user_cfg_key_val,
adf_user_cfg_section, adf_user_cfg_ctl_data). Drop the now-unused
adf_cfg_user.h header and strip adf_ctl_drv.c down to the minimal
module_init/module_exit hooks for workqueue, AER, and crypto/compression
algorithm registration.

Clean up leftover dead code that was only reachable from the removed
IOCTL paths: adf_cfg_del_all(), adf_devmgr_verify_id(),
adf_devmgr_get_num_dev(), adf_devmgr_get_dev_by_id(),
adf_get_vf_real_id() and the unused ADF_CFG macros.

Additionally, drop the entry associated to QAT IOCTLs in
ioctl-number.rst.

Konstantin Shabanov 55834f0d74 docs: netlink: Correct buffer sizing info
Update the docs to match the code (include/linux/netlink.h):

  /*
   *	skb should fit one page. This choice is good for headerless malloc.
   *	But we should limit to 8K so that userspace does not have to
   *	use enormous buffer sizes on recvmsg() calls just to avoid
   *	MSG_TRUNC when PAGE_SIZE is very large.
  */
  #if PAGE_SIZE < 8192UL
  #define NLMSG_GOODSIZE	SKB_WITH_OVERHEAD(PAGE_SIZE)
  #else
  #define NLMSG_GOODSIZE	SKB_WITH_OVERHEAD(8192UL)
  #endif
