Linus Torvalds ac5feaad48 Merge tag 'ext4_for_linus-7.4-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tytso/ext4
Pull ext4 updates from Ted Ts'o:
 "Add support for buffered iomap support in ext4. This is not enabled by
  default, but requires the buffered_iomap mount option, as this mode
  does not support online defragmentation, inline data, fsverify,
  fscrypt, non-extent inodes, and data=journal mode. If buffered_iomap
  is enabled, ext4 will fall back to the original I/O code path
  automatically if necessary. Large writes show significant performance
  improvements when buffered iomap is enabled.

  There are also miscellaneous bug fixes and improvements, including for
  fast commit and avoiding deadlocks and out-of-bound reads when
  handling corner cases involving corrupted file systems"

Linus Torvalds 47439bb163 Merge tag 'nfsd-7.4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cel/linux
Pull nfsd updates from Chuck Lever:
 "Jeff Layton extended the netlink listener-set operation so that
  a management daemon can register NFSD's programs with rpcbind
  itself. This prevents an unresponsive rpcbind from stalling NFSD
  administration for a minute at a time.

  Bulk delegation recall now adjusts the number of delegations it
  wants returned, based on memory pressure. The previous mechanism
  was spec-conformant, but it requested all delegations to be
  returned at once. Clients are free to return few or none in such
  cases, but requesting smaller batches of delegations is more
  neighborly.

  In preparation for handling TLS KeyUpdate, the server's TCP
  receive path has been reworked to handle control records. In the
  process, the use of sock_recvmsg was replaced with ->read_sock,
  which contends less with other holders of the socket lock.

  NFSv2 XDR code is now generated by xdrgen, which mechanically
  generates the encoders and decoders from the RPC language
  specification for the protocol. Replacing hand-built XDR code
  makes prototyping new protocol elements faster, reduces errors,
  and improves memory safety. Replacement of XDR code for newer NFS
  versions will continue in subsequent releases of NFSD.

  The remaining bulk of changes in v7.4 is bug fixes, clean-ups, and
  small optimizations. Sincere thanks to all contributors,
  reviewers, testers, and bug reporters who participated in the v7.4
  NFSD development cycle"

Pull KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini:
 "ARM:

   - pKVM state isolation: years after pKVM started being enabled
     upstream, we finally get the basics in the form of state isolation.
     The vcpu state is now off-limit for the host for protected VMs

   - pKVM also grows a hypervisor-private memory allocator, allowing it
     to deal with sub-page allocation, much like everywhere else

   - pKVM also lands a trace_printk() equivalent, which hopefully will
     make debugging a bit easier

   - First shot at annotating portions of the KVM/arm64 code to be
     extracted and built on s390. The real fun is yet to come

   - Allow pre-faulting of stage-2 canonical mappings from userspace,
     joining x86 and s390 in implementing this feature

   - Add a reverse mapping infrastructure for shadow stage-2,
     significantly improving performance when MMU notifiers kick in, and
     avoiding full unmap of all shadow tables for this VM

   - Next step of GICv5 enablement, adding support for the IRS block,
     and providing both SPI and LPI support. This is the first point
     where KVM/arm64 can support an SMP GICv5 guest

   - As a preliminary to eventually enabling CCA, add a bunch of
     infrastructure to KVM/arm64, splitting some of the basic operations
     into individual backends (normal VM, normal pKVM VM, protected pKVM
     VM). This allows CCA to later slot in without polluting the rest of
     KVM with its firmware-driven nonsense

   - Make ID registers immutable from the point where a vcpu is able to
     run, even if it fails to run. This prevents KVM from sampling
     untrusted values

   - Restore some type checking to the EL2 object. KVM/arm64 originally
     had some strong type checking between the kernel and the EL2
     object, but lost it along the way when the private hypercall
     interface was (somewhat pointlessly) converted to SMCCC. Type
     checking is back, syscall style, and with added sparse goodies

   - Expand the FFA support to FFA_NOTIFICATION_*, and add some
     sanitisation of the protocol that pKVM relays to the "trusted"
     runtime

   - Make GICv3 RD assignment more robust to userspace nonsense

   - Convert the remaining MMU fault handler backends to
     kvm_s2_fault_vma_info and co., fixing a number of bugs in the
     process

   - Fix the SError/SEA selftests to be both more robust and less
     braindead

   - Fix a smattering of documentation bugs, some of them as a result of
     our AI friends spitting out credible assertions based on
     non-existing symbols

   - The usual collection of low impact bug fixes (SMCCC, timers, PMU)

  Loongarch:

   - Add separate vmid support

   - Simplify MSI interrupt injection

   - Add crash hypercall support

   - Allow to set pv_feature until vCPU run

   - Enable HW page table walk automatically in selftests

  s390:

   - rework page allocation for secure guest variable storage

   - Selftests and documentation improvements

   - Replace get_zeroed_page with kzalloc

   - Fix corner cases of floating interrupt injection

   - Initial arm64 on s390 support

  x86:

   - Clean up the handling of vcpu->arch.xen.long_mode to be consistent
     and correctly handle 32-bit/64-bit alignment, and various other bug
     fixes have accumulated over the months since v1

   - Grab KVM's SRCU "lock" in kvm_zap_gfn_range() to fix a recurring
     bug where callers fail to do so

   - Fix a variety of issues in the pre-fault code that are mostly
     benign in the current code base, but will show up in big ways
     if/when the pre-faulting logic is used to implementing
     prefetch-on-fault for the TDP MMU

   - For PREEMPT_RT=y kernels, drop the rmaps' individual bit-spinlock
     and just walk the rmaps' with mmu_lock taken. On the write side
     (which always uses mmu_lock), the bit-spinlock was assuming that
     preemption was disabled, but that is *not* true when rwlocks become
     sleepable

   - Prepare a memory_fault exit (paired with -EFAULT) when KVM hits an
     error PFN, e.g. so that userspace can resolve transient issues
     instead of killing the guest. Convert a variety of WARN()+EFAULT
     paths into KVM_BUG_ON()+EIO so that KVM can hard commit to filling
     memory_fault on -EFAULTs that occur in the page fault path

   - Fix a NX hugepage un-accounting bug where KVM would always uncharge
     the shadow MMU, even when handling TDP MMU pages

   - Mask off the address space ID when checking for illegal usage of
     kvm_set_internal_memslot() to prevent false negatives on the sanity
     check

   - Explicitly zero reserved flags when delivering a SynIC message to
     avoid leaking a byte of stack information to the guest

   - Rework TDX's handling of the canonical MMU root level to not rely
     on userspace to fill CPUID correctly, as doing so lets userspace
     trivially trigger a KVM_BUG_ON()

   - Reject KVM_SET_NESTED_STATE if userspace "restores" L1 with
     EFER.LMA=1 && EFER.LME=0, which confuses KVM into trying to
     configure an 64-bit MMU without PAE

   - Ignore EFER.LMA (clear it from KVM's cached save state) if
     EFER.LME=0 when preparing L2 state, to fix another way to confuse
     KVM's MMU (and because real hardware also ignores EFER.LMA)

   - Improve KVM's sanity checks for a misconfigured MMU to (hopefully)
     detect all of the ways KVM can botch EFER.LMA vs. CR4.PAE

   - Remove the "full" out-param from kvm_x86_ops.flush_tlb_gva() as the
     param is only used to avoid what effectively amounts to a single
     memory write

   - Fix a mostly-benign bug where KVM can write through a guest's
     read-only mapping due to not checking the error code when
     expediting emulated MMIO page faults

   - Honor the guest's view of the "EFER.LMSLE must be zero" defeature
     so that userspace can provide migration compatibility between Rome
     and Milan+

   - Pend a KVM_REQ_EVENT request when an exception is morphed into a
     nested VM-Exit, otherwise KVM can fail to actually deliver the
     nested VM-Exit, e.g. when injecting a page fault

   - Add support for PML on SVM

   - Add support for virtualizing Bus Lock Detect on SVM, and fix a
     number of DR6 bugs and warts along the way

   - Fix a variety of warts in KVM's handling of guest TSC, kvmclock,
     and timekeeping in general, as a (big) first step towards
     addressing several longstanding problems with the kvmclock
     implementation. Most notably, fix a precision issue where
     get_kvmclock_ns() computed the clock from the *host* TSC without
     applying guest TSC scaling, causing systemic drift from the values
     the guest computes from its own TSC

   - Rip out KVM's shadow timekeeping structures, now that ktime
     snapshots are powerful enough to replace it

   - Misc fixes and cleanups

  x86 (AMD):

   - Fix a benign-in-practice bug where KVM unintentionally sets a
     non-zero error code when delivering exceptions to SEV-ES+ guests

   - Force a new ASID in both VMCBs on pCPU migration to fix a bug where
     KVM can run a VMCB with a stale ASID due to the tracking being
     per-CPU, not per-VMCB

   - Return INVALID_INPUT to the guest instead of exiting to userspace
     with -EIO if KVM can't access "guest request" buffer, i.e. try to
     keep the guest alive if the guest or userspace goofs

  x86 (Intel):

   - Enable Notify VM-Exits (now called Instruction Timeout in the SDM)
     and Bus Lock VM-Exits for TDX guests when they're enabled by
     userspace (KVM forgot to wire up the TDX Module knobs)

   - Move all common (between VMX and TDX) APIs/helpers to
     common.h/main.c, and change all namespace prefixes from "vmx" to
     "vt"

   - Fix a thankfully benign bug (due to other areas of KVM being
     hardened) where userspace can bypass INIT_MEM_REGION's address wrap
     check by providing a nr_pages that will overflow a u64 when
     converted to bytes, and fix an also- benign off-by-one bug in the
     check (inclusive vs. exclusive)

   - Set the vmcs.GUEST_ACTIVITY_STATE back to ACTIVE when userspace
     sets KVM's mp_state to anything other than HALTED, e.g. so that a
     vCPU doesn't get stuck in HLT if userspace emulates RESET

  guest_memfd:

   - Take the invalidate lock when unbinding a dying file to fix a race
     with kvm_gmem_invalidate_end() that results in KVM leaving the MMU
     invalidation count elevated. Not taking the lock in the first place
     was pure misguided paranoid

   - When binding a memslot, purge the bindings if storing the new
     memslot fails, as Xarray's "store range" API can subtly fail
     partway through

   - Establish memslot<=>guest_memfd bindings *after* the memslot is
     ready, as the memslot becomes reachable the instant the binding is
     installed

   - Don't grab a page refcount when reloading an SNP VMSA and stop
     returning a "struct page" from guest_memfd's PFN lookup altogether,
     to ensure that KVM doesn't hold any unnecessary refcounts (the
     lifetime of the page is ensured by MMU notifiers and similar
     hooks). Preventing unnecessary refcounts greatly simplifies
     supporting in-place SHARED=>PRIVATE conversions

   - Add support for in-place PRIVATE<=>SHARED conversion, i.e. allow a
     single guest_memfd instance to be used for both PRIVATE and SHARED
     variations of CoCo guests' memory (though not at the same time).
     This eliminates the need to double allocate guest memory for TDX
     and SNP, and is basically a hard requirement for pKVM, which relies
     on being able to preserve memory contents on conversions

   - Hack-a-fix a deadlock bug in ->error_remove_folio() by returning
     -EBUSY if the filemap invalidate lock is contended. Punt on a
     proper fix for the moment, as a proper fix likely involves
     reworking truncate_error_folio()

   - Add a pile of selftests for in-place conversions

   - Misc guest_memfd cleanups

  Generic:

   - Move some configuration items to preprocessor symbols, to help with
     arm-on-s390's need to compile the same code twice with different
     values

   - Allow KVM implementations to choose alternative device names, also
     for s390's support of ARM virtualmachines

   - Switch the KVM-VFIO interface and external consumers over to
     standard file-based reference counting, eliminating all external
     KVM symbol exports

  Selftests:

   - Rework KVM selftest's handling of memory regions all so that PPC
     can force its page table allocations to be naturally aligned

   - PPC support

   - Fix emulation of VMPTRST and VMPTRLD when eVMCS is in-use to match
     real Hyper-V's behavior

   - Saturate L2's TSC frequency if stacking L1 and L2 scaling
     multipliers exceeds what hardware supports, as attempting to run L2
     with an illegal multiplier will either cause VM-Entry to fail (VMX)
     or trigger a #GP when writing MSR_AMD64_TSC_RATIO (SVM). The #GP is
     thankfully benign in the grand scheme as even "unsafe" WRMSRs have
     exception fixup

   - Rework KVM selftest's handling of memory regions so that PPC can
     force its page table allocations to be naturally aligned

   - Clean up selftest's VMX instruction helpers, and drop an absurd
     number of completely useless return values, e.g. functions that
     unconditionally return %true and then have every caller assert
     success

   - Add selftests support for Zhaoxin CPUs

   - Overhaul the TSC scaling test to add a regression test for the
     saturation behavior, and to increase its coverage in general

   - Fix selftests usage various NUMA syscalls to account for an
     undocumented, but known since 2007, off-by-one kernel bug. Add
     helpers to try and avoid re-introducing the same flaws in the
     future

   - Automatically run xAPIC IPI migration test (between NUMA nodes)
     when possible, as the entire point of the test is verify KVM's
     handling of page migration of the APIC backing page

   - Misc cleanups"

Linus Torvalds c5fd5e67c7 Merge tag 'mm-stable-2026-10-19-21-33' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm
Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:

 - "selftests/mm: improve khugepaged coverage" (Kiryl Shutsemau):

   Give khugepaged a proper workout. Extend the tests to all supported
   mTHP orders, check exactly which windows collapsed, and make scan
   completion deterministic. Race collapse against faults, pinning, fork
   and remap; verify that the contents survive.

   Add coverage for whole-page-table zaps and memory pressure too.

 - "selftests/mm: separate GUP microbenchmarking from functional testing"
   (Sarthak Sharma):

   Untangle GUP benchmarking from correctness testing. Move the
   benchmark into tools/mm, add a standalone harness-based GUP selftest,
   and move shared helpers into tools/lib/mm. Give each tool one job
   instead of mixing timing measurements with correctness checks.

   Cover the mapping, pinning and batch-size combinations explicitly.

 - "mm: Switch device DAX to section-based vmemmap optimization" (Muchun
   Song):

   Apply section-based vmemmap optimization to device DAX. Rework the
   backing metadata layout to save memory while preserving the handling
   of device memory hotplug and its different alignment and lifetime
   requirements.

 - "mm: Introduce section-based vmemmap optimization for HugeTLB"
   (Muchun Song):

   Cut the memory consumed by HugeTLB's struct page array with
   section-based vmemmap optimization. Arrange the metadata so large
   huge pages need fewer backing pages, while keeping initialization,
   teardown and the various hugepage configurations straight.

 - "mm/huge_memory: clean up and decouple the anon and file split
   helpers" (Kairui Song):

   Separate anonymous and file-backed folio splitting, which have rather
   different locking and bookkeeping requirements. Move the work into
   separate helpers, drop dead checks and tidy swap-cache handling. Fix
   error paths, including one that could leave a folio frozen.

   Keep the swap cache cases separate from file-cache splitting.

 - "mm: Unconditional per-VMA locks and cleanups" (Dave Hansen):

   Make per-VMA locking unconditional and clean up the old conditional
   code around it. This removes configuration-dependent plumbing and
   lets callers depend on one locking model rather than carrying both
   cases along.

 - "memcg: remove the v1 soft limit" (Shakeel Butt):

   Remove the old cgroup v1 memory soft-limit machinery. This has long
   since been superseded by the newer memory-control interfaces; hauling
   around a separate reclaim scheme for it no longer buys us much.

 - "read proc/pid/smaps_rollup under per-vma lock" (Suren Baghdasaryan):

   Read /proc/PID/smaps_rollup using per-VMA locks where possible,
   rather than holding mmap_lock across the entire walk. Retain the
   contention fallback and add tearing tests. This considerably reduces
   latency when another thread is busy changing its mappings.

 - "mm/damon: introduce data access-as-a-data attribute" (SJ Park):

   Teach DAMON to expose memory access observations as data attributes,
   making them available to the probe and filtering machinery. Extend
   the interfaces, documentation and tests so the new information can be
   used rather than merely collected.

 - "Remove PG_private by using page/folio->private checks instead" (Zi
   Yan):

   Get rid of PG_private and use the folio's private pointer to say
   whether private data is attached. Convert the filesystem users,
   including erofs, f2fs and md, and clean up the old accessors and
   flags. There are a few special cases, notably swapcache and hugetlb,
   which need explicit care.

 - "mm: make userland page table freeing RCU-safe" (Lorenzo Stoakes):

   Make freeing userspace page tables safe against RCU readers. Sort out
   the page-table lifetime and locking rules so walkers cannot stumble
   over freed tables while mappings are being torn down.

 - "make unused huge shrinker memcg aware" (Qi Zheng):

   Make shmem's unused-huge-folio shrinker aware of memory cgroups, so
   reclaim can find those folios under the right memcg. Wire up the
   per-memcg tracking and its lifetime rules, and give the shrinklist
   its own lockdep class to avoid spurious dependency reports.

 - "mm: Drop pxd_ERROR()" (Anshuman Khandual):

   Remove the old pxd_ERROR() page-table checks and their
   architecture-specific baggage. Simplify the common page-table
   interfaces and callers now that these checks no longer serve a
   useful purpose.

 - "memcg: group struct fields by access pattern" (Shakeel Butt):

   Rearrange memcg's hot and cold fields according to how they're
   actually accessed. Keep frequently updated counters and their
   neighboring state from fighting over cachelines and reduce needless
   cacheline traffic.

 - "mm/damon/core: fix the size charged for a filter-trimmed region"
   (Donggeun Yoo):

   Fix DAMOS quota accounting when a filter trims a monitoring region.
   Charge only the part left after filtering, not the original region,
   and add KUnit coverage. Previously the excluded memory could eat into
   the quota and make schemes run more slowly than requested.

 - "mm/damon: add kunit and selftests for probes and probe weights" (SJ
   Park):

   Add more tests for DAMON probes and their weights, including
   validation and the results reported to userspace. This is mostly
   about catching regressions in the newer probe infrastructure before
   they become harder to diagnose.

 - "mm: memcontrol: constify the read side of the read side of the memcg
   API" (Tal Zussman):

   Mark the read-only parts of the memcg interface const, from folio and
   lruvec accessors to counters and swap helpers. Most of this is
   mechanical, but it makes the contracts clearer and lets the compiler
   catch accidental writes.

 - "mm/damon/vaddr: support {prep,apply}_probes" (SJ Park):

   Support the new prepare/apply probe operations in DAMON's
   virtual-address backend. This brings vaddr monitoring into line with
   the probe infrastructure and makes the added probe types useful there
   too.

 - "mm/mglru: clean up folio counters and flag usage" (Kairui Song):

   Simplify MGLRU's folio counters and flag handling. Remove redundant
   accounting paths and make the state transitions easier to follow
   without changing the intended reclaim policy.

 - "arch, mm/execmem: resolve confusion about set_direct_map_valid_noflush()"
   (Mike Rapoport (Microsoft)):

   Clarify and straighten out the set_direct_map_valid_noflush()
   interface across architectures and execmem. Make the requested
   mapping changes and the callers' expectations agree, rather than
   relying on subtly different architecture behavior.

 - "mm: zswap: free cold writeback folios promptly" (Alexandre Ghiti):

   Free zswap writeback folios as soon as their disk write completes.
   They are cold temporary buffers, so putting them on the LRU only
   makes reclaim rediscover them later. Extend swap-cache dropbehind and
   let zswap keep these folios off the LRU altogether.

 - "mm: gup: cleanup gup_fast call chain" (Aristeu Rozanski):

   Clean up the GUP-fast call chain and simplify how the fast-path
   helpers pass their arguments and results around. Keep the page-pin
   behavior the same while making the call sequence easier to maintain.

 - "mm: optimize zone-device memmap initialization" (Li Zhe):

   Speed up initialization of zone-device struct pages. Avoid redundant
   work when setting up large device-memory ranges, where touching every
   descriptor can get expensive.

 - "mm/zswap: shrink zswap_entry via a pool id" (Jianyue Wu):

   Reduce the size of zswap_entry by storing a compact pool identifier
   instead of a full pointer. Keep the pool lookup and lifetime handling
   correct while saving per-entry metadata.

 - "mm/damon: support access monitoring of hugetlb-backed memory"
   (Krishna Iyer):

   Let DAMON monitor hugetlb-backed memory too. Extend the relevant
   access checks and add coverage so those mappings no longer fall
   through a hole in the monitoring machinery.

 - "mm/execmem: fixes and cleanups for the ROX cache" (Mike Rapoport):

   Tidy execmem's read-only-executable cache and fix its handling of the
   awkward allocation and release cases. The aim is to make the cache's
   ownership and permission transitions more predictable.

 - "zsmallc: remove old object read API" (Sergey Senozhatsky):

   Drop zsmalloc's old object-read API and move its remaining users to
   the supported access mechanism. This removes a duplicate interface
   which we no longer need.

 - "mm/mempolicy: stop copying state in the interleave paths" (Gregory
   Price):

   Stop copying mempolicy state in the interleave paths when a reference
   to the existing policy will do. This avoids extra work and makes the
   ownership rules less obscure.

 - "mm/mglru: speed up inc_min_seq() and fix cold/hot inversions" (Barry
   Song):

   Make MGLRU's generation advancement cheaper and fix cases where cold
   and hot folios end up in the wrong order. Adjust the counter and list
   handling so reclaim doesn't keep passing over the better eviction
   candidates.

 - "mm: Fix MF_DELAYED handling on memory failure" (Lisa Wang):

   Treat MF_DELAYED as a partially completed memory-failure operation,
   not an outright failure. Propagate that result correctly through
   shmem and the generic handler, fix the extra-reference accounting,
   and add tests for the resulting SIGBUS behavior.

 - "tools/mm/page_owner_sort: fix --sort, add module filter, improve
   usage" (Ye Liu):

   Fix page_owner_sort's --sort handling, add module-based filtering and
   make the usage output more helpful. This makes the tool less
   frustrating when tracking down who is holding on to pages.

 - "mm/damon: move damos filter range arguments validation to core" (SJ
   Park):

   Move DAMOS filter range validation into the core, where all callers
   can share it. Also close the sysfs read-twice races which could pass
   inconsistent ranges, and add tests for invalid input.

 - "mm/damon: misc cleanups" (Zenghui Yu):

   Clean up a collection of small DAMON rough edges in the core,
   interfaces and tests. No large behavior change here, just simpler
   code and fewer opportunities for confusion.

 - "mm/damon: cleanup code, add test cases, and update guidances in
   docs" (SJ Park):

   Clean up DAMON's core and interfaces, add missing test cases and
   bring the documentation into line with the code. These changes should
   make the newer facilities easier to understand and maintain.

 - "mm/damon: introduce hugepage_size probe filter" (SJ Park):

   Add a DAMON probe filter for hugepage size. Let users select a range
   of folio sizes through sysfs, validate the range and document the new
   interface, so monitoring can concentrate on memory backed by the
   desired hugepage sizes.

 - "selftests/mm: pagemap_ioctl test fixes and cleanups" (Zenghui Yu):

   Fix some pagemap ioctl test assumptions and clean up their setup and
   reporting. Make failures point to the operation that went wrong
   rather than to test harness bookkeeping.

 - "mm: avoid large folio splits when swap is unavailable" (Johannes
   Weiner):

   Avoid splitting large folios merely to attempt swap when no swap
   space is available. There is little point paying for an expensive
   split when reclaim cannot actually swap the resulting pages out.

 - "mm: workingset: fix the shadow node budget under MGLRU" (Hui Zhu):

   Fix the workingset shadow-node budget with MGLRU enabled. Keep the
   shadow entries within the intended limits so refault tracking does
   not quietly consume more metadata than it should.

 - "selftests/mm: TAP output and global-state fixes" (Song Hu):

   Fix selftests which produce misleading TAP output or fail to restore
   global settings after a run. A test ought to leave the system as it
   found it, particularly when a whole suite follows behind.

 - "mm: remove page_swap_entry()" (Tal Zussman):

   Remove page_swap_entry() and convert its remaining users to the folio
   and swap-entry helpers. Lose an old page-level interface and make the
   swap paths a little more consistent.

 - "mm: refactor zonelist constructors and iterators" (Gregory Price):

   Refactor the zonelist construction and walk helpers to reduce
   duplicated logic. Keep the allocation ordering rules intact while
   making it clearer how zones are selected.

 - "mm: kmemleak: batch the struct page scan" (Breno Leitao):

   Scan adjacent struct pages in batches instead of taking kmemleak_lock
   once for every single page. This preserves scan coverage and the
   lock-hold bound, while cutting overhead substantially on debug
   kernels.

 - "mm/damon: misc improvements in tests and documents" (Zenghui Yu):

   Fix some DAMON selftests which leave kdamond running or fail under
   Python safe-path mode, and improve the KUnit coverage and
   documentation. Nothing especially glamorous, but these are worth
   doing.

 - "mm/damon: introduce probe_hits_wsum DAMOS core filter" (SJ Park):

   Add a DAMOS core filter using weighted probe-hit counts. This gives
   schemes another way to select regions based on what the monitoring
   probes observed.

 - "mm/mglru: fix ineffective memory protection for non-kswapd reclaim"
   (Ridong Chen):

   Fix MGLRU's memory protection handling for reclaim outside kswapd.
   The protection settings weren't having the intended effect in these
   paths, leaving protected memory more exposed than requested.

 - "mm/damon: improve readability, clarity and test coverage" (SJ Park):

   Simplify a handful of DAMON core helpers, clarify their behavior and
   expand test coverage. There are no intended userspace-visible changes
   in this batch.

 - "mm: replace PF_KCOMPACTD/PF_KSWAPD with kthread_func()" (Kefeng
   Wang):

   Stop identifying reclaim and compaction workers through the PF_KSWAPD
   and PF_KCOMPACTD task flags. Use their kthread functions instead and
   remove the redundant flag plumbing.

 - "mm/hugetlb: fix surplus accounting and availability checks during
   demotion" (Longlong Xia):

   Fix HugeTLB surplus accounting and availability checks when demoting
   huge pages. Keep the counters and reservation decisions consistent as
   one huge page turns into several smaller ones.

 - "mm/damon: add kunit tests for probe_hits handling and probe params
   validation" (Jason Angelov):

   Add KUnit tests for DAMON probe-hit handling and invalid probe
   parameters. These cover edge cases that were too easy to miss in
   ordinary monitoring tests.

 - "mm/damon: fix misc bugs in kunit, quota goals and sysfs refresh_ms"
   (SJ Park):

   Fix a few DAMON bugs in KUnit tests, quota-goal handling and the
   sysfs refresh interval. Small fixes, but the incorrect results and
   control behavior were real.

 - "mm: zswap: optimize zswap invalidate and store" (Kefeng Wang):

   Simplify zswap's invalidate and store paths to avoid avoidable
   lookups and work. Keep the entry lifetime rules intact while making
   those frequent operations cheaper.

 - "mm: replace custom ratelimiting logic" (Pedro Falcato):

   Replace hand-rolled MM rate limiting with the common kernel helpers.
   There is no need to maintain another local version of the same
   mechanism.

 - "mm/vmalloc: minor cleanups" (Ye Liu):

   Tidy some vmalloc initialization and reporting code, and pull
   duplicated vmap-area insertion work into a helper. No functional
   changes are intended.

 - "mm/mglru: clean up isolate_folios for readability and clarity"
   (Ridong Chen):

   Clean up MGLRU's isolate_folios() so the decisions are easier to read
   and verify. Keep reclaim behavior unchanged while removing
   unnecessary twists in the control flow.

 - "Catch automatic storage in IDA and Maple Tree definitions" (Yury
   Norov):

   Catch IDA and maple-tree definitions placed in automatic storage
   where the lifetime rules are wrong or easy to get wrong. Add checks
   so such mistakes are harder to slip through unnoticed.

 - "mm, swap: some random fixes and cleanups" (Kemeng Shi):

   Fix and simplify a few unrelated swap paths, removing redundant work
   and tidying up error handling. A small collection of things which
   were better fixed than left lying around.

 - "mm/page_io: folio conversion cleanups" (Tal Zussman):

   Finish some page-to-folio conversions in swap I/O, removing obsolete
   wrappers and using folio operations consistently. The I/O behavior is
   intended to remain the same.

 - "mm/swap: skip empty clusters in the swapoff scan" (Youngjun Park):

   Skip empty swap clusters during swapoff instead of walking slots
   which have nothing to release. This avoids pointless work on sparsely
   used swap devices.

 - "mm: trace: decode architecture-specific VMA flags" (Meijing Zhao):

   Teach the VMA trace output to decode architecture-specific flags,
   rather than leaving them as unexplained bits. That should make
   tracing a good deal more useful when debugging unusual mappings.

 - "mm, swap: don't spin on a bad swap entry" (Breno Leitao):

   Stop repeatedly retrying a swap entry which is already known to be
   bad. Make the error path terminate cleanly instead of wasting CPU
   chasing an entry that cannot be used.

 - "mm/page_isolation: fix UBSAN shift-out-of-bounds in
   isolate_single_pageblock" (Qi Xi):

   Fix an out-of-range shift in isolate_single_pageblock() and tighten
   its associated boundary handling. UBSAN found the issue; the result
   should be more robust pageblock isolation.

 - "mm: khugepaged: fix tracepoint UAF" (Vernon Yang):

   Fix a use-after-free in khugepaged tracepoint handling. Make sure the
   information recorded by tracing stays valid for as long as the trace
   event needs it.

 - "mm/damon: fix DAMOS bugs in core, paddr and vaddr" (SJ Park):

   Fix several DAMOS problems across the core and physical- and
   virtual-address backends. The changes close error cases and bring the
   implementations back into agreement.

 - "mm/hugetlb_cgroup: move the per-node usage along with the folio"
   (Hongfu Li):

   Move HugeTLB per-node usage accounting when folios migrate between
   nodes or are reparented to another cgroup. Otherwise numa_stat can
   retain stale charges and even underflow when the folio is freed.

 - "docs/core-api: memory-allocation: add k[mz]alloc_obj() and clarify
   kmalloc" (Mike Rapoport):

   Document the typed k[mz]alloc_obj() allocation helpers and clear up
   some kmalloc guidance. Make it easier for callers to choose the right
   interface.

 - "selftests/mm: Validate selections and scope memfd_secret setup"
   (Tianyi Chen):

   Check selftest selections before running and confine memfd_secret
   setup to the cases that actually need it. Avoid confusing failures
   caused by the test harness itself.

 - "mm/damon: move zero damos quota target_value handling to the core
   layer" (SJ Park):

   Handle a zero DAMOS quota goal target in the core rather than making
   each user of the interface invent its own rule. Keep quota decisions
   consistent across callers.

 - "mm/damon: Introduce a huge page collapsing mechanism using auto
   tuning" (Asier Gutierrez):

   Add an auto-tuned DAMON mechanism for collapsing huge pages. Use
   monitoring feedback to decide when collapse is worthwhile rather than
   forcing one fixed policy onto every workload.

 - "kmemleak: fix stale documentation and raise the verbose default"
   (Breno Leitao):

   Bring the kmemleak documentation up to date and require a third
   confirming scan before verbose kernels print a suspected leak. The
   extra scan helps suppress transient false positives in noisy debug
   builds.

 - "mm/memory: improve insert_pages() error handling" (Avi Weiss):

   Tighten insert_pages() error handling so partial failures are
   reported and cleaned up consistently. The caller should not have to
   guess how far the operation got.

 - "mm/damon: allow NULL or unstarted damon_ctx parameter for
   damon_call()" (SJ Park):

   Make damon_call() handle NULL and not-yet-started contexts safely.
   Simplify the rules for callers and avoid an indefinite wait on an
   invalid state.

 - "mm/damon: introduce pgidle_set probe filter type" (SJ Park):

   Add a pgidle_set DAMON probe filter, giving monitoring users another
   way to select pages by their idle-tracking state. Wire it through the
   filter interfaces and tests.

 - "mm/damon/core: remove unused helper functions" (Cheng-Han Wu):

   Remove DAMON core helpers which no longer have callers. Keep the API
   surface smaller rather than retaining dead code just in case.

 - "mm: stop calling pmd_folio() on special PMDs" (Gregory Price):

   Avoid calling pmd_folio() on special PMD mappings that have no struct
   page. The old assumption could fault in procfs walkers; use the
   normal-folio checks and handle those mappings properly.

 - "mm: remove three unused helpers from mm.h" (Tal Zussman):

   Remove three unused helpers from mm.h. Fewer obsolete interfaces for
   the next person to stumble over.

 - "mm/damon: improvements in efficiency, error handling, documents"
   (Liew Rui Yan):

   Skip needless DAMOS quota work once the quota is full, propagate a
   missing sysfs error and tidy a couple of comments. The ignored error
   could make a monitoring-start request appear successful when it
   wasn't.

 - "docs/mm/damon/design: add explanation of nr_snapshots" (Liew Rui
   Yan):

   Explain DAMON's nr_snapshots accounting in the design documentation
   and straighten out the associated terminology. Make it clearer what
   users should expect from that counter.

 - "selftests/cgroup: fixes for test_zswap on single core VM" (Wilson
   Felipe Pereira):

   Fix two test_zswap failures on single-CPU VMs. Wait for the exiting
   child's cgroup to become unpopulated before reconfiguring it, and
   avoid another test assumption which breaks under constrained
   scheduling.

 - "docs/ksm: fix advisor documentation and comment" (Jinjiang Tu):

   Correct the KSM advisor documentation and a misleading code comment.
   Keep the description aligned with how the advisor actually works.

 - "Fix bugs in HugeTLB allocation when mem_cgroup_charge_hugetlb()
   fails" (Ackerley Tng):

   Fix HugeTLB allocation cleanup when the memcg charge fails. Make sure
   failure exits undo what was allocated rather than leaving stale
   accounting or resources behind.

 - "mm, memcg: fix memory.peak reset clobbering other fds' watermark"
   (Ridong Chen):

   Fix memory.peak reset handling so resetting one file descriptor
   doesn't overwrite the watermark kept for another. Keep those per-open
   measurements independent as intended.

 - "mm: reject zone device folios in more folio walkers" (Gregory
   Price):

   Reject zone-device folios in page walkers that cannot safely handle
   them. Extend the existing checks rather than assuming every folio has
   ordinary system-memory backing.

 - "percpu: remove code with no effect" (Sang-Heon Jeon):

   Remove a few pieces of percpu code which no longer do anything. There
   is no reason to keep maintaining dead paths.

Linus Torvalds 734bef548a Merge tag 'net-next-7.4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next
Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
 "This includes a significant number of low-priority fixes - especially
  in the NIC drivers area - that we deferred from the last few RCs in
  the previous cycle, which can't be easily outlined in the synopsis
  below.

  Core & protocols:

   - Continue the work on removing rtnl_lock dependencies:
      - per-netns ARP and ND neighbour tables, with the default settings
        now configurable per netns (inheritance from init_net is
        controlled by the new net.core.neigh_inherit_init_net sysctl)
      - RCU-protected configuration and rtnl_lock-less fill_info() for
        hsr, netkit, sit, vlan and vxlan devices
      - per-netns device unregistration for ip tunnel and gre devices
      - use the netdev instance lock instead of rtnl_lock when reading
        speed and duplex via sysfs
      - batch the flushing of uncached routes at device unregistration
        time, relieving rtnl_lock contention on netns dismantle.

   - Add hardware pacing offload support, admin-controlled via a new
     rtnetlink attribute, with sch_fq integration (implemented in idpf).

   - Re-segment BIG TCP GSO packets into GSO packets fitting the egress
     device limits instead of plain MSS-sized segments, improving
     throughput for mixed BIG TCP / non-BIG TCP paths by up to 70%.

   - Generate RSS keys that spread flows over all the RX queues; the
     previous random keys could leave some queues unused.

   - Optimize the bridge VLAN forwarding paths: cache the port-VLAN in
     fdb entries and consider only VLAN members when flooding, for ~10%
     more Mpps in the fdb forwarding path.

   - A few TCP/IP performance improvements aimed at efficient cache
     usage and reducing contention.

   - Add the TCP ROCCET congestion control, a CUBIC variant aimed at
     avoiding bufferbloat in cellular networks.

   - Continue the conversion of getsockopt callbacks to sockopt_t.

   - Add an ethtool command to list the front-facing ports of an
     interface, including SFP cages and modules, using the phy_port
     representation.

   - Enable BIG TCP support for bareudp tunnels.

   - Remove the IPV6_ADDRFORM socket option and disallow buggy TCP state
     transitions (listen() + shutdown() + connect() and connect() +
     connect(AF_UNSPEC) + listen()).

   - Remove most BUG_ON()s from core packet processing, replacing them
     with error paths.

  Wireless:

   - Latency improvements, including lockless station get/dump and
     beacon updates, plus RTNL reduction and locking cleanups.

   - Infrastructure for non-station TX/RX with MLO.

   - NAN (Wi-Fi Aware) Instant Communication support and other NAN
     improvements.

   - Control frame Integrity Protocol (CIP) and protected TWT support.

   - Improvements for AP regulatory checks.

  Netfilter:

   - Disable br_netfilter in user namespaces and schedule it for removal
     in 2027.

   - Restrict the raw table in nft_compat to the specific family, hook
     and priority.

   - Prepare the flowtable for mixed IPv4-over-IPv6 tunneling (and vice
     versa).

   - Use GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT for most netfilter allocations, for better
     integration with memcg.

   - Allow discovering conntrack zone filtering support in ctnetlink
     dumps, and fix nfnetlink_hook handling of large dumps.

  Deletions:

   - Move the LLC type 2 sockets out of tree. There are no known users
     and the code attracts a never-ending stream of LLM-driven fixes.

   times faster on large machines, which XFS hits on every log force.

 - Per-cpu workqueues are built through the same attribute path as
   unbound ones and get a max_active of their own, continuing the work
   to turn them into an affinity scope of unbound workqueues.

 - New tracepoints for work items turning CPU-intensive, rescuer mayday

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.

Mickaël Salaün 97c8386f1d landlock: Enforce capability restrictions
Add Landlock enforcement for capability use via the LSM capable hook.
This lets a sandboxed process restrict which Linux capabilities it can
exercise, using LANDLOCK_PERMISSION_CAPABILITY_USE and per-capability
rules.

The check is a flat per-layer allowed-capabilities test, with no
domain-ancestry bypass, no cross-namespace discriminant, and no
dependency on the target user namespace.  These categorical denials
return -EPERM, like the namespace permission introduced by the previous
commit, and they mirror its per-capability allowed and quiet masks, so
LANDLOCK_ADD_RULE_QUIET stays rejected for this rule type.  Successful
capability rules and denials are traced as the previous commit
describes.

Enforce only at capability exercise time rather than modifying the
credential's capability sets.  Modifying them would give capget(2) an
accurate view of usable capabilities, but no LSM other than commoncap
does so; Landlock follows that convention.  A sandboxed process inside a
user namespace therefore sees all capabilities via capget(2) but
receives -EPERM when attempting to use one that is denied.

An earlier design bypassed this hook for namespace management through a
domain-ancestry comparison with the namespace creator's stored Landlock
domain.  That made a Landlock decision depend on kernel namespace state,
and the ns != cred->user_ns heuristic did not accurately identify
namespace-management operations.  The flat, namespace-agnostic check
instead enforces capability and namespace restrictions independently;
creating a non-user namespace requires an allowed CAP_SYS_ADMIN even
when combined with CLONE_NEWUSER in one unshare().

Mickaël Salaün 15dd86021b landlock: Enforce namespace use restrictions
Add Landlock enforcement for namespace use through the LSM
namespace_init and namespace_install hooks.  This lets a sandboxed
process restrict which namespace types it can create, join, or acquire a
file descriptor for, using LANDLOCK_PERMISSION_NAMESPACE_USE and
per-type rules.

Introduce the handled_permissions field in struct landlock_ruleset_attr:
each permission gates every use of a kernel-defined category (CLONE_NEW*
namespace types, CAP_* capabilities) with complete deny-by-default
coverage, so unknown member values need no validation, being denied
until a rule allows them.  This UAPI extension advances the Landlock ABI
from 11 to 12.

There is no domain-ancestry bypass and no namespace-creator tracking,
only a flat per-layer allowed-types bitmask: hook_namespace_init()
covers creation through clone(2), unshare(2), open_tree(2) and
fsmount(2), and hook_namespace_install() covers setns(2).  Each
permission hook maps its member mask explicitly in the shared permission
walker, which warns and denies if a future caller omits that mapping.
These categorical denials return -EPERM, matching Landlock's scope and
mount-topology denials rather than its object-access -EACCES convention.

struct permission_masks is forced to eight bytes with __packed and
__aligned because it must eventually hold both the eight namespace types
and all capabilities, and because m68k GCC otherwise packs its u64
bitfields at byte granularity, making the structure smaller than
sizeof(u64).  Carrying it grows struct layer_config from 4 to 16 bytes,
so the largest 16-entry domain FAM grows from 64 to 256 bytes.

The permissions selector keeps the rule attribute self-describing:

- User space can mask it against handled_permissions, as it masks
  allowed_access against handled_access_fs, so a program built against
  newer headers still adds the rules an older kernel supports.

- It tells apart two attributes that share the same three-u64 layout.
  Unknown member bits are ignored, so without it a mismatched rule type
  would apply a capability mask as namespace types.

- It leaves room for a rule to carry several permissions, or for another
  rule type to key the same permission differently.

The rule also carries a quiet_namespace_types bitmask that suppresses
audit submission for denied members without granting them.  A sandbox
knowingly running a caller that probes a type it will never be granted
would otherwise flood the audit log and drown the surprising denials
that matter.  Quiet is per-member rather than a coarse per-category
ruleset bit, so a sandbox can silence CLONE_NEWNET while still auditing
CLONE_NEWUTS; making it the complement of the allowed set would be
broad, could not audit a member that is neither allowed nor explicitly
quieted, and would auto-hide members added by future kernels.  It is a
per-rule bitmask rather than the LANDLOCK_ADD_RULE_QUIET flag and the
ruleset quiet_access_* masks, which suit the unbounded rb-tree objects
of filesystem and network rules, so that flag is rejected here.  Only
the youngest denying layer's quiet mask decides, so a parent cannot
silence a denial made by a deeper layer.

Trace the handled permission mask, every successful namespace rule, and
namespace denials.  Successful effective no-ops advance the version, and
quiet denials remain trace-visible with logged=0.  The denial event
takes the blockers argument of the filesystem and network events and
records the same blockers_type and blockers_access fields, so one filter
expression spans the mask-bearing denial events.  Handled and rule
permission masks may contain permissions from multiple domains in one
field, so their names are domain-qualified, such as namespace.use.  A
blocker is already interpreted in the domain supplied by the audit
prefix or denial event, so it retains the bare action name use, matching
existing access blockers such as read_file.

User namespace creation does not require capabilities, so Landlock can
restrict it directly.  Non-user namespace types require CAP_SYS_ADMIN
before the Landlock check is reached; when the capability permission
added by the next commit is also handled, both must allow the operation.

Mickaël Salaün 68ba67106a landlock: Wrap per-layer access masks in struct layer_config
The domain layer FAM stores struct access_masks values directly, while a
ruleset stores the equivalent single mutable value.  Per-category
permissions need additional per-layer data beyond the handled-access
bitfields.

Introduce struct layer_config as the common value type.  Keeping the
handled bitfields in its .handled member leaves struct access_masks as a
lightweight parameter type for functions that only need those bitfields,
while the complete layer can be snapshotted with one assignment.

At this point struct layer_config only wraps the four-byte access_masks,
so it does not grow the per-domain allocation: the maximum 16-entry FAM
remains 64 bytes.

No functional change.

Pull pidfd updates from Christian Brauner:
 "This adds thread specific pidfds to af_unix sockets.

  SO_PASSPIDFD and SO_PEERPIDFD hand out a pidfd for the thread-group

  the thread that took the signal and is writing the dump, and anything
  doing per-thread authentication has the same problem. The sending and

  leader and sk_peer_pid becomes an array indexed by pid type.

  SO_PASSPIDFD_THREAD works like SO_PASSPIDFD but delivers an
  SCM_PIDFD_THREAD cmsg for the sending thread. Both options are
  independent so a receiver can ask for both. On SOCK_STREAM sockets
  recvmsg() only stops merging data at a thread boundary when the
  receiver asked for a thread pidfd. SO_PEERPIDFD_THREAD returns a pidfd
  for the thread that called connect(), listen() or socketpair(). pidfs
  records the coredump on the dumping thread's struct pid too so its

David Howells c990057233 cachefiles: Don't rely on backing fs storage map for most use cases
Cachefiles currently uses the backing filesystem's idea of what data is
held in a backing file and queries this by means of SEEK_DATA and
SEEK_HOLE.  However, this means it does two seek operations on the backing
file for each individual read call it wants to prepare (unless the first
returns -ENXIO).  Worse, the backing filesystem is at liberty to insert or
remove blocks of zeros in order to optimise its layout which may cause
false positives and false negatives.

The problem is that keeping track of what is dirty is tricky (if storing
info in xattrs, which may have limited capacity and must be read and
written as one piece) and expensive (in terms of diskspace at least) and is
basically duplicating what a filesystem does.

However, the most common write case, in which the application does {
open(O_TRUNC); write(); write(); ... write(); close(); } where each write
follows directly on from the previous and leaves no gaps in the file is
reasonably easy to detect and can be noted in the primary xattr as
CACHEFILES_CONTENT_ALL, indicating we have everything up to the object size
stored.

In this specific case, given that it is known that there are no holes in
the file, there's no need to call SEEK_DATA/HOLE or use any other mechanism
to track the contents.  That speeds things up enormously.

Even when it is necessary to use SEEK_DATA/HOLE, it may not be necessary to
call it for each cache read subrequest generated.

Implement this by adding support for the CACHEFILES_CONTENT_ALL content
type (which is defined, but currently unused), which requires a slight
adjustment in how backing files are managed.  Specifically, the driver
needs to know how much of the tail block is data and whether storing more
data will create a hole.

To this end, the way that the size of a backing file is managed is changed.
Currently, the backing file is expanded to strictly match the size of the
network file, but this can be changed to carry more useful information.
This makes two pieces of metadata available: xattr.object_size and the
backing file's i_size.  Apply the following schema:

  (a) i_size is always a multiple of the DIO block size.

  (b) i_size is only updated to the end of the highest write stored.  This
      is used to work out if we are following on without leaving a hole.

  (c) xattr.object_size is the size of the network filesystem file cached
      in this backing file.

  (d) xattr.object_size must point after the start of the last block
      (unless both are 0).

  (e) If xattr.object_size is at or after the block at the current end of
      the backing file (ie. i_size), then we have all the contents of the
      block (if xattr.content == CACHEFILES_CONTENT_ALL).

  (f) If xattr.object_size is somewhere in the middle of the last block,
      then the data following it is invalid and must be ignored.

  (g) If data is added to the last block, then that block must be fetched,
      modified and rewritten (it must be a buffered write through the
      pagecache and not DIO).

  (h) Writes to cache are rounded out to blocks on both sides and the
      folios used as sources must contain data for any lower gap and must
      have been cleared for any upper gap, and so will rewrite any
      non-data area in the tail block.

To implement this, the following changes are made:

 (1) cookie->object_size is no longer updated when writes are copied into
     the pagecache, but rather only updated when a write request completes.

     This prevents object size miscomparison when checking the xattr
     causing the backing file to be invalidated (opening and marking the
     backing file and modifying the pagecache run in parallel).

 (2) The cache's current idea of the amount of data that should be stored
     in the backing file is kept track of in object->object_size.

     Possibly this is redundant with cookie->object_size, but the latter
     gets updated in some addition circumstances.

 (3) The size of the backing file at the start of a request is now tracked
     in struct netfs_cache_resources so that the partial EOF block can be
     located and cleaned.

 (4) The cache block size is now used consistently rather than using
     CACHEFILES_DIO_BLOCK_SIZE (4096).

 (5) The backing file size is no longer adjusted when looking up an object.

 (6) When shortening a file, if the new size is not block aligned, the part
     beyond the new size is cleared.  If the file is truncated to zero, the
     content_info gets reset to CACHEFILES_CONTENT_NO_DATA.

 (7) A new struct, fscache_occupancy, is instituted to track the region
     being read.  Netfslib allocates it and fills in the start and end of
     the region to be read then calls the ->query_occupancy() method to
     find and fill in the extents.  It also indicates whether a recorded
     extent contains data or just contains a region that's all zeros
     (FSCACHE_EXTENT_DATA or FSCACHE_EXTENT_ZERO).

 (8) The ->prepare_read() cache method is changed such that, if given, it
     just limits the amount that can be read from the cache in one go.  It
     no longer indicates what source of read should be done; that
     information is now obtained from ->query_occupancy().

 (9) A new cache method, ->collect_write(), is added that is called when a
     contiguous series of writes have completed and a discontiguity or the
     end of the request has been hit.  It it supplied with the start and
     length of the write made to the backing file and can use this
     information to update the cache metadata.

(10) cachefiles_query_occupancy() is altered to find the next two "extents"
     of data stored in the backing file by doing SEEK_DATA/HOLE between the
     bounds set - unless it is known that there are no holes, in which case
     a whole-file first extent can be set.

(11) cachefiles_collect_write() is implemented to take the collated write
     completion information and use this to update the cache metadata, in
     particular working out whether there's now a hole in the backing file
     requiring future use of SEEK_DATA/HOLE instead of just assuming the
     data is all present.

     It also uses fallocate(FALLOC_FL_ZERO_RANGE) to clean the part of a
     partial block that extended beyond the old object size.  It might be
     better to perform a synchronous DIO write for this purpose, but that
     would mandate an RMW cycle.  Ideally, it should be all zeros anyway,
     but, unfortunately, shared-writable mmap can interfere.

(12) cachefiles_begin_operation() is updated to note the current backing
     file size and the cache DIO size.

(13) cachefiles_create_tmpfile() no longer expands the backing file when it
     creates it.

(14) cachefiles_set_object_xattr() is changed to use object->object_size
     rather than cookie->object_size.

(15) cachefiles_check_auxdata() is altered to actually store the content
     type and to also set object->object_size.  The cachefiles_coherency
     tracepoint is also modified to display xattr.object_size.

(16) netfs_read_to_pagecache() is reworked.  The cache ->prepare_read()
     method is replaced with ->query_occupancy() as the arbiter of what
     region of the file is read from where, and that retrieves up to two
     occupied extents of the backing file at once.

     The cache ->prepare_read() method is now repurposed to be the same as
     the equivalent network filesystem method and allows the cache to limit
     the size of the read before the iterator is prepared.

     netfs_single_dispatch_read() is similarly modified.

(17) netfs_update_i_size() and afs_update_i_size() no longer call
     fscache_update_cookie() to update cookie->object_size.

(18) Write collection now collates contiguous sequences of writes to the
     cache and calls the cache ->collect_write() method.

Paolo Bonzini 29c925376d Merge tag 'kvm-x86-coco-7.4' of https://github.com/kvm-x86/linux into HEAD
KVM guest_memfd and CoCo changes for 7.4

 - Take the invalidate lock when unbinding a dying file to fix a race with
   kvm_gmem_invalidate_end() that results in KVM leaving the MMU invalidation
   count elevated.  Not taking the lock in the first place was pure misguided
   paranoid.

 - When binding a memslot, purge the bindings if storing the new memslot fails,
   as Xarray's "store range" API can subtly fail partway through.

 - Establish memslot<=>guest_memfd bindings *after* the memslot is ready, as
   the memslot becomes reachable the instant the binding is installed.

 - Don't grab a page refcount when reloading an SNP VMSA and stop returning a
   "struct page" from guest_memfd's PFN lookup altogether, to ensure that KVM
   doesn't hold any unnecessary refcounts (the lifetime of the page is ensured
   by MMU notifiers and similar hooks).  Preventing unnecessary refcounts
   greatly simplifies supporting in-place SHARED=>PRIVATE conversions.

 - Add support for in-place PRIVATE<=>SHARED conversion, i.e. allow a single
   guest_memfd instance to be used for both PRIVATE and SHARED variations of
   CoCo guests' memory (though not at the same time).  This eliminates the need
   to double allocate guest memory for TDX and SNP, and is basically a hard
   requirement for pKVM, which relies on being able to preserve memory contents
   on conversions.

 - Hack-a-fix a deadlock bug in ->error_remove_folio() by returning -EBUSY if
   the filemap invalidate lock is contended.  Punt on a proper fix for the
   moment, as a proper fix likely involves reworking truncate_error_folio().

 - Add a pile of selftests for in-place conversions.

 - Misc guest_memfd cleanups

Zhang Yi 1b15129d9a ext4: add tracepoints for EOF block zeroing and disksize-grow I/O
Add tracepoints to track the disksize-grow-pending lifecycle in the
writeback path and the block-zero-EOF entry point:

- ext4_iomap_wb_disksize_pending_submit: ioend is marked as
  DISKSIZE_GROW_IO in ext4_iomap_writeback_submit().
- ext4_iomap_wb_disksize_pending_complete: ioend of type
  DISKSIZE_GROW_IO completes in ext4_iomap_finish_ioend().
- ext4_iomap_wb_disksize_pending_wait: ioend worker waits for the
  pending zeroed EOF block to complete.
- ext4_iomap_wb_update_disksize: i_disksize is advanced in
  ext4_iomap_wb_update_disksize, including the new value and
  whether the update is a disksize-grow completion.
- ext4_block_zero_eof: ext4_block_zero_eof is called with the range
  and zeroing outcome, capturing the producer-side entry point.

Together with the previous mark/clear/wait tracepoints, these cover the
full lifetime of the disksize-grow-pending state.

KVM/arm64 updates for 7.4

* New features

  - pKVM state isolation: years after pKVM started being enabled
    upstream, we finally get the basics in the form of state
    isolation. The vcpu state is now off-limit for the host for
    protected VMs.

  - pKVM also grows a hypervisor-private memory allocator, allowing it
    to deal with sub-page allocation, much like everywhere else.

  - pKVM also lands a trace_printk() equivalent, which hopefully will
    make debugging a bit easier.

  - First shot at annotating portions of the KVM/arm64 code to be
    extracted and built on s390. The real fun is yet to come.

  - Allow pre-faulting of stage-2 canonical mappings from userspace,
    joining x86 and s390 in implementing this feature.

  - Add a reverse mapping infrastructure for shadow stage-2,
    significantly improving performance when MMU notifiers kick in,
    and avoiding full unmap of all shadow tables for this VM.

  - Next step of GICv5 enablement, adding support for the IRS block,
    and providing both SPI and LPI support.  This is the first point
    where KVM/arm64 can support an SMP GICv5 guest.

* Improvements

  - As a preliminary to eventually enabling CCA, add a bunch of
    infrastructure to KVM/arm64, splitting some of the basic
    operations into individual backends (normal VM, normal pKVM VM,
    protected pKVM VM). This allows CCA to later slot in without
    polluting the rest of KVM with its firmware-driven nonsense.

  - Make ID registers immutable from the point where a vcpu is able
    to run, even if it fails to run. This prevents KVM from sampling
    untrusted values.

  - Restore some type checking to the EL2 object. KVM/arm64 originally
    had some strong type checking between the kernel and the EL2
    object, but lost it along the way when the private hypercall
    interface was (somewhat pointlessly) converted to SMCCC. Type
    checking is back, syscall style, and with added sparse goodies.

  - Expand the FFA support to FFA_NOTIFICATION_*, and add some
    sanitisation of the protocol that pKVM relays to the "trusted"
    runtime.

* Fixes

  - Make GICv3 RD assignment more robust to userspace nonsense

  - Convert the remaining MMU fault handler backends to
    kvm_s2_fault_vma_info and co, fixing a number of bugs in the
    process.

  - Fix the SError/SEA selftests to be both more robust and less
    braindead.

  - Fix a smattering of documentation bugs, some of them as a result
    of our AI friends spitting out credible assertions based on
    non-existing symbols.

  - The usual collection of low impact bug fixes (SMCCC, timers, PMU).

Zi Yan e01f7ddcb1 mm/page-flags: check page/folio->private instead of PG_private
After the changes of the prior commits, page/folio->private != NULL is now
equivalent to checking PG_private.

Stop checking PG_private on pages and folios and use page/folio->private
instead, except swapcache and hugetlb folios, because the former uses a
field (swp_entry_t swap) overlapping with ->private and the latter sets
its flags in ->private.  Exclude swapcache and hugetlb when the code is
meant to check PG_private only.  PG_swapcache and folio->swap.val cannot
be set/clear as a whole, so excluding swapcache with
folio_test_swapcache() is not reliable.  Instead, use
folio_test_swapbacked(), since PG_swapbacked is stable when a folio is
added to/removed from swapcache.  Add a helper,
folio_has_attached_private(), for this check.

folio_test_private() and PagePrivate() now read folio/page->private
plainly instead of an atomic read of PG_private bit, so KCSAN complains
about possible data races.  Annotate them with data_race().

folio_expected_ref_count() can be called without the folio lock, so
annotate folio->mapping with data_race() while at it.

folio_set/clear_private() and Set/ClearPagePrivate() become no-ops.
PG_private is no longer checked at page free time. They will be removed in
an upcoming commit.

Remove KPF_PRIVATE since PG_private is no longer used.

Protection keys are encoded in architecture-specific HIGH_ARCH_* VMA flag
bits.  show_vma_flags(), which is used by VMA tracepoints and %pGv, does
not name those bits, leaving them as raw hexadecimal values.

Name the protection-key encoding bits pkey_bit0 through pkey_bit4 under
CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_PKEYS.  The names make clear that these are bits of one
protection-key value rather than independent protection keys.  For
example, protection key 3 is represented as:

  pkey_bit0|pkey_bit1

Honor CONFIG_ARCH_PKEY_BITS when exposing bit 3 and bit 4 so only bits
provided by the architecture are included.

Meijing Zhao a971ac3a0a mm: trace: decode MTE and shadow stack VMA flags
show_vma_flags(), which is used by VMA tracepoints and %pGv, leaves
architecture-specific HIGH_ARCH_* bits unnamed.  Arm64 MTE flags and user
shadow stack flags are therefore printed as raw hexadecimal values.

These bit positions are shared between architectures.  For example, bit 37
represents VM_MTE_ALLOWED on arm64 but VM_SHADOW_STACK on x86, so a shared
HIGH_ARCH_* bit cannot be given an unconditional name.

Add conditionally compiled names for VM_MTE, VM_MTE_ALLOWED and
VM_SHADOW_STACK.  Keep the configuration guards aligned with the
definitions of these aliases so each shared bit position is decoded
according to the target architecture.

For example, an arm64 VMA containing VM_MTE_ALLOWED is now printed as:

  ...|account|mte_allowed|...

instead of:

  ...|account|0x2000000000

Patch series "mm: trace: decode architecture-specific VMA flags", v2.

show_vma_flags(), which is used by VMA tracepoints and %pGv, names generic
VM_* bits but does not fully decode architecture-specific flag positions. 
As a result, trace output and VMA dumps can show a generic "arch_1" name
or a raw hexadecimal value instead of the meaning assigned by the target
architecture.

This series adds symbolic names for the arm64 and sparc64 meanings of
VM_ARCH_1, arm64 MTE flags, user shadow stack flags, and protection-key
encoding bits under their corresponding configuration guards.


This patch (of 3):

The VM_ARCH_1 bit has architecture-specific meanings.  show_vma_flags(),
which is used by VMA tracepoints and %pGv, already reports the powerpc,
parisc and no-MMU meanings, but falls back to the generic "arch_1" name on
arm64 and sparc64.

Report VM_ARM64_BTI as "bti" and VM_SPARC_ADI as "adi" so trace output and
%pGv dumps expose the actual architecture-specific state.

Vernon Yang 9010383e71 mm: khugepaged: fix folio is used after folio_put/unlock()
On the rollback path, folio_put() has already dropped the last reference
of new_folio.  On the success path, new_folio is already unlocked and can
be freed concurrently.  The trace_mm_khugepaged_collapse_file() is left
with a dangling folio pointer.

So using the folio_pfn() before dropping the reference, closing
use-after-free window.

Vernon Yang ba2f1f92dd mm: khugepaged: fix folio is used after pte_unmap_unlock()
After the page table lock has dropped, the folio can be freed
concurrently.  The trace_mm_khugepaged_scan_pmd() is left with a dangling
folio pointer.

So using the folio_pfn() before dropping the page table lock, closing
use-after-free window.

And other pre-existing bug, When the `for (i = 0; i < HPAGE_PMD_NR; i++)`
iteration to terminate and the folio operation preceding is normal, but
pfn will be incorrect.  so we really only trace the PFN if it really was
problematic.

Vernon Yang 942c8ec27a mm: khugepaged: fix swap entry value to folio_pfn()
Patch series "mm: khugepaged: fix tracepoint UAF", v5.

The khugepaged tracepoints take a folio pointer and call folio_pfn(), but
by then the folio may no longer be valid: freed after folio_put(),
folio_unlock() or pte_unmap_unlock(), or not a folio at all but an
xarray-encoded swap entry.  On classic SPARSEMEM, dereferencing it oopses
khugepaged as soon as the trace event is enabled; on other memory models
it merely prints a bogus pfn.

Pass the pfn to the tracepoints directly, captured while the folio is
still pinned, closing the use-after-free windows in
mm_khugepaged_scan_file(), mm_khugepaged_scan_pmd() and
mm_khugepaged_collapse_file().


This patch (of 3):

When the swap entries found exceed max_ptes_swap, the loop is left via
break with folio still holding the xarray value that encodes the swap
entry, not valid folio pointer.

That value is passed to trace_mm_khugepaged_scan_file(), which feeds it to
folio_pfn().  On FLATMEM and SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP, the page_to_pfn() is plain
pointer arithmetic, so the trace event merely prints bogus scan_pfn.  On
classic SPARSEMEM, the page_to_pfn() reads page->flags, dereferencing the
tiny encoded integer and oopsing khugepaged whenever the trace event is
enabled.

So when folio is the swap entry value, simply set pfn to -1, just like
exhausted scan naturally.

And the folio_put() has maybe dropped the last reference of folio.  The
trace_mm_khugepaged_scan_file() is left with a dangling folio pointer.  so
using the folio_pfn() before dropping the reference, closing
use-after-free window.

David Howells 9f40ea2aac netfs: Remove the writethrough code
Remove the netfs writethrough code as it's very tricky to get the locking
right and it will probably deadlock if used in conjunction with Ceph
snapshots because it excludes writeback for the duration, but to flush out
old snapshots, it does a synchronous flush that invokes writeback.

Instead, O_SYNC writes do a flush after performing the write - which is
already there as the callers of netfs_perform_write() all call
generic_write_sync().

Chuck Lever 2288839975 NFSD: Replace the use of include/trace/misc/nfs.h
fs/nfsd/trace.h includes include/trace/misc/nfs.h for
show_nfs4_seq4_status() and show_rca_mask(). That header pulls in
linux/nfs.h, so every NFSD translation unit that reads trace.h also
sees the NFS_OK, NFSERR_*, and file-type enumerators.

I'm about to switch fs/nfsd/nfserr.h to an xdrgen-generated header,
which defines enum nfsstat and enum ftype with those same names. Any
translation unit that includes both headers then fails to build with
enumerator redefinition errors.

To address this, stop including trace/misc/nfs.h in fs/nfsd/trace.h.

Chuck Lever c563a1f067 NFSD: Resolve the recall-any mask names in the trace format
RCA4_TYPE_MASK_* are enum constants, so the preprocessor cannot fold
them into the print format that show_rca_mask() builds for the
nfsd_cb_recall_any event. Nothing declares an eval map for them
either, so trace_event_eval_update() has no substitution to apply at
module load, and the event's format file ships the enumerator names
verbatim. trace-cmd and perf cannot decode the bmval0 field.

Declare the eval maps for the nine mask bits show_rca_mask() decodes.
The format then carries the shift counts as integers, the same shape
the SUNRPC trace points already emit from their BIT() flag decoders.
