ptrace: slightly saner 'get_dumpable()' logic

2026-05-15T12:53:54+00:00

commit 31e62c2ebbfdc3fe3dbdf5e02c92a9dc67087a3a upstream.

The 'dumpability' of a task is fundamentally about the memory image of
the task - the concept comes from whether it can core dump or not - and
makes no sense when you don't have an associated mm.

And almost all users do in fact use it only for the case where the task
has a mm pointer.

But we have one odd special case: ptrace_may_access() uses 'dumpable' to
check various other things entirely independently of the MM (typically
explicitly using flags like PTRACE_MODE_READ_FSCREDS).  Including for
threads that no longer have a VM (and maybe never did, like most kernel
threads).

It's not what this flag was designed for, but it is what it is.

The ptrace code does check that the uid/gid matches, so you do have to
be uid-0 to see kernel thread details, but this means that the
traditional "drop capabilities" model doesn't make any difference for
this all.

Make it all make a *bit* more sense by saying that if you don't have a
MM pointer, we'll use a cached "last dumpability" flag if the thread
ever had a MM (it will be zero for kernel threads since it is never
set), and require a proper CAP_SYS_PTRACE capability to override.

8021q: use RCU for egress QoS mappings

2026-05-14T13:31:20+00:00

[ Upstream commit fc69decc811b155a0ed8eef17ee940f28c4f6dbc ]

The TX fast path and reporting paths walk egress QoS mappings without
RTNL. Convert the mapping lists to RCU-protected pointers, use RCU
reader annotations in readers, and defer freeing mapping nodes with an
embedded rcu_head.

This prepares the egress QoS mapping code for safe removal of mapping
nodes in a follow-up change while preserving the current behavior.

mmc: core: Optimize time for secure erase/trim for some Kingston eMMCs

2026-05-14T13:31:19+00:00

[ Upstream commit d6bf2e64dec87322f2b11565ddb59c0e967f96e3 ]

Kingston eMMC IY2964 and IB2932 takes a fixed ~2 seconds for each secure
erase/trim operation regardless of size - that is, a single secure
erase/trim operation of 1MB takes the same time as 1GB. With default
calculated 3.5MB max discard size, secure erase 1GB requires ~300 separate
operations taking ~10 minutes total.

Add a card quirk, MMC_QUIRK_FIXED_SECURE_ERASE_TRIM_TIME, to set maximum
secure erase size for those devices. This allows 1GB secure erase to
complete in a single operation, reducing time from 10 minutes to just 2
seconds.

mmc: core: Add quirk for incorrect manufacturing date

2026-05-14T13:31:19+00:00

[ Upstream commit 263ff314cc5602599d481b0912a381555fcbad28 ]

Some eMMC vendors need to report manufacturing dates beyond 2025 but are
reluctant to update the EXT_CSD revision from 8 to 9. Changing the
Updating the EXT_CSD revision may involve additional testing or
qualification steps with customers. To ease this transition and avoid a
full re-qualification process, a workaround is needed. This
patch introduces a temporary quirk that re-purposes the year codes
corresponding to 2010, 2011, and 2012 to represent the years 2026, 2027,
and 2028, respectively. This solution is only valid for this three-year
period.

After 2028, vendors must update their firmware to set EXT_CSD_REV=9 to
continue reporting the correct manufacturing date in compliance with the
JEDEC standard.

The `MMC_QUIRK_BROKEN_MDT` is introduced and enabled for all Sandisk
devices to handle this behavior.

rseq: Protect rseq_reset() against interrupts

commit e9766e6f7d330dce7530918d8c6e3ec96d6c6e24 upstream.

rseq_reset() uses memset() to clear the tasks rseq data. That's racy
against membarrier() and preemption.

Guard it with irqsave to cure this.

mm: various small mmap_prepare cleanups

2026-05-07T04:14:15+00:00

[ Upstream commit 3e4bb2706817710d9461394da8b75be79981586b ]

Patch series "mm: expand mmap_prepare functionality and usage", v4.

This series expands the mmap_prepare functionality, which is intended to
replace the deprecated f_op->mmap hook which has been the source of bugs
and security issues for some time.

This series starts with some cleanup of existing mmap_prepare logic, then
adds documentation for the mmap_prepare call to make it easier for
filesystem and driver writers to understand how it works.

It then importantly adds a vm_ops->mapped hook, a key feature that was
missing from mmap_prepare previously - this is invoked when a driver which
specifies mmap_prepare has successfully been mapped but not merged with
another VMA.

mmap_prepare is invoked prior to a merge being attempted, so you cannot
manipulate state such as reference counts as if it were a new mapping.

The vm_ops->mapped hook allows a driver to perform tasks required at this
stage, and provides symmetry against subsequent vm_ops->open,close calls.

The series uses this to correct the afs implementation which wrongly
manipulated reference count at mmap_prepare time.

It then adds an mmap_prepare equivalent of vm_iomap_memory() -
mmap_action_simple_ioremap(), then uses this to update a number of drivers.

It then splits out the mmap_prepare compatibility layer (which allows for
invocation of mmap_prepare hooks in an mmap() hook) in such a way as to
allow for more incremental implementation of mmap_prepare hooks.

It then uses this to extend mmap_prepare usage in drivers.

Finally it adds an mmap_prepare equivalent of vm_map_pages(), which lays
the foundation for future work which will extend mmap_prepare to DMA
coherent mappings.

This patch (of 21):

Rather than passing arbitrary fields, pass a vm_area_desc pointer to mmap
prepare functions to mmap prepare, and an action and vma pointer to mmap
complete in order to put all the action-specific logic in the function
actually doing the work.

Additionally, allow mmap prepare functions to return an error so we can
error out as soon as possible if there is something logically incorrect in
the input.

Update remap_pfn_range_prepare() to properly check the input range for the
CoW case.

Also remove io_remap_pfn_range_complete(), as we can simply set up the
fields correctly in io_remap_pfn_range_prepare() and use
remap_pfn_range_complete() for this.

While we're here, make remap_pfn_range_prepare_vma() a little neater, and
pass mmap_action directly to call_action_complete().

Then, update compat_vma_mmap() to perform its logic directly, as
__compat_vma_map() is not used by anything so we don't need to export it.

Also update compat_vma_mmap() to use vfs_mmap_prepare() rather than
calling the mmap_prepare op directly.

Finally, update the VMA userland tests to reflect the changes.

firmware: exynos-acpm: Drop fake 'const' on handle pointer

2026-05-07T04:14:02+00:00

commit a2be37eedb52ea26938fa4cc9de1ff84963c57ad upstream.

All the functions operating on the 'handle' pointer are claiming it is a
pointer to const thus they should not modify the handle.  In fact that's
a false statement, because first thing these functions do is drop the
cast to const with container_of:

  struct acpm_info *acpm = handle_to_acpm_info(handle);

And with such cast the handle is easily writable with simple:

  acpm->handle.ops.pmic_ops.read_reg = NULL;

The code is not correct logically, either, because functions like
acpm_get_by_node() and acpm_handle_put() are meant to modify the handle
reference counting, thus they must modify the handle.  Modification here
happens anyway, even if the reference counting is stored in the
container which the handle is part of.

The code does not have actual visible bug, but incorrect 'const'
annotations could lead to incorrect compiler decisions.
