helper autoassign was removed years ago, all the port numbers are no longer functional. Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de>
2026-07-02netfilter: nfnetlink_hook: Dump nat type chainsPhil Sutter
These chains are indirectly attached to the hook since they are not called for packets belonging to an established connection. Introduce NF_HOOK_OP_NAT to identify the container and dump attached entries instead of the container itself. Dump these entries with the dispatcher's priority value since their own priority merely defines ordering within the dispatcher's list.

2026-07-02mm/mm_init: handle alloc_percpu failure in free_area_init_core_hotplugGregory Price
We miss a failed allocation check for pgdat->per_cpu_nodestats, which results in a NULL deref when we offset into the per-cpu area. Propagate -ENOMEM up the stack and leave per_cpu_nodestats pointing at boot_nodestats so a later online can retry the allocation. hotadd_init_pgdat() returns NULL on failure, which __try_online_node() already maps to -ENOMEM. On failure nothing needs to be unwound: - the node is never marked online - per_cpu_nodestats is left pointing at boot_nodestats - __add_memory_resource() cleans up pending memblock resources - later online attempts retry the per_cpu_nodestats allocation Reported-by: Sashiko <sashiko-bot@kernel.org> Link: https://sashiko.dev/#/patchset/20260627202243.758289-1-gourry%40gourry.net Fixes: 75ef71840539 ("mm, vmstat: add infrastructure for per-node vmstats") Signed-off-by: Gregory Price <gourry@gourry.net> Acked-by: David Hildenbrand (Arm) <david@kernel.org> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260701221613.2818148-1-gourry@gourry.net Signed-off-by: Mike Rapoport (Microsoft) <rppt@kernel.org>

2026-07-01mm: do file ownership checks with the proper mount idmapPedro Falcato
Ever since idmapped mounts were introduced, inode ownership checks (for side-channel protection) in mincore() and madvise(MADV_PAGEOUT) were done against the nop_mnt_idmap, which completely ignores the file's mount's idmap. This results in odd edgecases like: 1) mount/bind-mount with an idmap userA:userB:1 2) userB runs an owner_or_capable() check on file that is owned by userA on-disk/in-memory, but owned by userB after idmap translation 3) owner_or_capable() mysteriously fails as the correct idmap wasn't supplied In the case of mincore/madvise MADV_PAGEOUT, this is usually benign, because file_permission(file, MAY_WRITE) will probably succeed, as it uses the proper idmap internally, but it does not need to be the case on e.g a 0444 file where even the owner itself doesn't have permissions to write to it. Since this is clearly not trivial to get right, introduce a file_owner_or_capable() that can carry the correct semantics, and switch the various users in mm to it. The issue was found by manual code inspection & an off-list discussion with Jan Kara.

2026-07-01mm: page_ext: add count limit to page_ext_iter_next to prevent invalid PFN ↵Ketan
access The page_ext iteration API does not validate if the PFN still belongs to a valid section while advancing the iterator. When dynamically adding memory in the hotplug path, it can lead to a NULL pointer dereference during page_ext_lookup at the boundary of the last valid section when iterator count equals __pgcount. The for_each_page_ext() macro calls page_ext_iter_next() as its loop increment. for_each_page_ext() does a "__page_ext = page_ext_iter_next(&__iter)" at the end. This causes page_ext_iter_next() to increment iter->index past __pgcount and call page_ext_lookup(start_pfn + __pgcount). During memory hotplug (online), the PFN at start_pfn + __pgcount may belong to a section that has not yet been initialized, causing page_ext_lookup() to trigger a NULL pointer dereference.

2026-07-01mm/damon/ops-common: handle extreme intervals in damon_hot_score()SeongJae Park
Fix three issues in damon_hot_score() that comes from wrong handling of extreme (zero or too high) monitoring intervals user setup. When the user sets sampling interval zero, damon_max_nr_accesses(), which is called from damon_hot_score(), causes a divide-by-zero. Needless to say, it is a problem. When the user sets the aggregation interval zero, the function returns zero. It is wrong, since the real maximum nr_acceses in the setup should be one. Worse yet, it can cause another divide-by-zero from its caller, damon_hot_score(), since it uses damon_max_nr_accesses() return value as a denominator. When the user sets the aggregation interval very high, damon_hot_score() could return a value out of [0, DAMOS_MAX_SCORE] range. Since the return value is used as an index to the regions_score_histogram array, which is DAMOS_MAX_SCORE+1 size, it causes out of bounds array access. The issues can be relatively easily reproduced like below. The sysfs write permission is required, though. # ./damo start --damos_action lru_prio --damos_quota_space 100M \ --damos_quota_interval 1s # cd /sys/kernel/mm/damon/admin/kdamonds/0 # echo 0 > contexts/0/monitoring_attrs/intervals/sample_us # echo 0 > contexts/0/monitoring_attrs/intervals/aggr_us # echo commit > state # dmesg [...] [ 131.329762] Oops: divide error: 0000 [#1] SMP NOPTI [...] [ 131.336089] RIP: 0010:damon_hot_score+0x27/0xd0 [...] Fix the divide-by-zero intervals problems by explicitly handling the zero intervals in damon_max_nr_accesses().

2026-07-01bpf: Copy per-CPU map value padding in copy_map_value_long()Leon Hwang
In kernel, per-CPU map elements are stored with round_up(map->value_size, 8) bytes. On UAPI lookup paths, it copies the rounded size for each CPU into a temporary buffer. However, copy_map_value_long() passes 'map->value_size' to bpf_obj_memcpy(). When the map has special fields, bpf_obj_memcpy() copies around those fields with memcpy(), and does not copy the tail padding between 'map->value_size' and round_up(map->value_size, 8). The temporary UAPI lookup buffers are allocated without __GFP_ZERO. As a result, when the per-CPU map's value size is not equal to round_up(map->value_size, 8), UAPI LOOKUP_ELEM and its variants can return stale heap contents from that padding to user space. The same issue applies to bpf_iter for per-CPU maps. Pass round_up(map->value_size, 8) to bpf_obj_memcpy() from copy_map_value_long(), so per-CPU maps both with and without special fields copy the entire per-CPU slot. Remove the now redundant round_up() from bpf_obj_memcpy()'s long_memcpy path.

Right now that logic is mostly trivial, but already has a bug for XFS because the XFS version is too trivial: file system integrity validation needs a workqueue context and thus can't happen from the default iomap bi_end_io I/O handler. Unfortunately the iomap refactoring just before fs integrity landed moved code around here and the call go misplaced, meaning it never got called.

2026-07-01netfs: Replace wb_lock with a bit lock for asynchronicityDavid Howells
The netfs_inode::wb_lock mutex is used to prevent multiple simultaneous writebacks from fighting each other (a writeback thread will write multiple discontiguous regions within the same request). The mutex, however, only serialises the issuing of subrequests; it doesn't serialise the collection of results, and, in particular, the updating of file size information and fscache populatedness data. Unfortunately, the mutex cannot be held around the entire process as it has to be unlocked in the same thread in which it is locked - and we don't want to hold up the allocator whilst we complete the writeback. Fix this by replacing the mutex with a bit flag and a list of lock waiters so that the lock can be dropped in the collector thread after collection is complete.

2026-07-01bpf: Support for hardening against JIT sprayingPawan Gupta
The BPF JIT allocator packs many small programs into larger executable allocations and reuses space within those allocations as programs are loaded and freed. When fresh code is written into space that a previous program occupied, an indirect jump into the new program can reuse a branch prediction left behind by the old one. Flush the indirect branch predictors before reusing JIT memory so that indirect jumps into a newly written program don't reuse predictions from an old program that occupied the same space. Introduce bpf_arch_pred_flush_enabled static key and bpf_arch_pred_flush static call for flushing the branch predictors on JIT memory reuse. Architectures that need a flush, can update it to a predictor flush function. By default, its a NOP and does not emit any CALL. Allocations larger than a pack are not covered by this flush. That is safe because cBPF programs (the unprivileged attack surface) are bounded well below a pack size. Issue a warning if this assumption is ever violated while the flush is active.

2026-06-30arm64: kexec_file: Add support for crashkernel CMA reservationJinjie Ruan
Commit 35c18f2933c5 ("Add a new optional ",cma" suffix to the crashkernel= command line option") and commit ab475510e042 ("kdump: implement reserve_crashkernel_cma") added CMA support for kdump crashkernel reservation. Crash kernel memory reservation wastes production resources if too large, risks kdump failure if too small, and faces allocation difficulties on fragmented systems due to contiguous block constraints. The new CMA-based crashkernel reservation scheme splits the "large fixed reservation" into a "small fixed region + large CMA dynamic region": the CMA memory is available to userspace during normal operation to avoid waste, and is reclaimed for kdump upon crash—saving memory while improving reliability. So extend crashkernel CMA reservation support to arm64. The following changes are made to enable CMA reservation: - Parse and obtain the CMA reservation size along with other crashkernel parameters. - Call reserve_crashkernel_cma() to allocate the CMA region for kdump. - Include the CMA-reserved ranges for kdump kernel to use. - Exclude the CMA-reserved ranges from the crash kernel memory to prevent them from being exported through /proc/vmcore, which is already done in the crash core. Update kernel-parameters.txt to document CMA support for crashkernel on arm64 architecture.

2026-06-30bpf: Reject BPF_MAP_TYPE_INODE_STORAGE creation if BPF LSM is uninitializedMatt Bobrowski
When CONFIG_BPF_LSM=y is set, BPF inode storage maps (BPF_MAP_TYPE_INODE_STORAGE) are compiled into the kernel. However, if the BPF LSM is not explicitly enabled at boot time (e.g. omitted from the "lsm=" boot parameter), lsm_prepare() is never executed for the BPF LSM. Consequently, the BPF inode security blob offset (bpf_lsm_blob_sizes.lbs_inode) is never initialized and remains at its default compiled size of 8 bytes instead of being updated to a valid offset past the reserved struct rcu_head (typically 16 bytes or more). When a privileged user creates and updates a BPF_MAP_TYPE_INODE_STORAGE map, bpf_inode() evaluates inode->i_security + 8. This erroneously aliases the struct rcu_head.func callback pointer at the beginning of the inode->i_security blob. During subsequent map element cleanup or inode destruction, writing NULL to owner_storage clears the queued RCU callback pointer. When rcu_do_batch() later executes the queued callback, it attempts an instruction fetch at address 0x0, triggering an immediate kernel panic. Fix this by introducing a global bpf_lsm_initialized boolean flag marked with __ro_after_init. Set this flag to true inside bpf_lsm_init() when the LSM framework successfully registers the BPF LSM.

Introduce dmaengine_prep_config_single_safe() and dmaengine_prep_config_sg_safe() to provide a reentrant-safe way to combine slave configuration and transfer preparation. Drivers may implement the new device_prep_config_sg() callback to perform both steps atomically. If the callback is not provided, the helpers fall back to calling dmaengine_slave_config() followed by dmaengine_prep_slave_sg() under per-channel spinlock protection.

Previously, configuration and preparation required two separate calls. This works well when configuration is done only once during initialization. However, in cases where the burst length or source/destination address must be adjusted for each transfer, calling two functions is verbose and requires additional locking to ensure both steps complete atomically. Add a new API dmaengine_prep_config_single() and dmaengine_prep_config_sg() and callback device_prep_config_sg() that combines configuration and preparation into a single operation.

Move the RZ/V2H PLL and divider parameter calculation helpers from rzv2h-cpg.c into a new reusable library. Introduce the CLK_RZV2H_CPG_LIB Kconfig symbol and add rzv2h-cpg-lib.c to host the PLL parameter search algorithms currently implemented by rzv2h_get_pll_pars() and rzv2h_get_pll_divs_pars().

2026-06-30sched/eevdf: Move to a single runqueuePeter Zijlstra (Intel)
Change fair/cgroup to a single runqueue. Infamously fair/cgroup isn't working for a number of people; typically the complaint is latencies and/or overhead. The latency issue is due to the intermediate entries that represent a combination of tasks and thereby obfuscate the runnability of tasks. The approach here is to leave the cgroup hierarchy as is; including the intermediate enqueue/dequeue but move the actual EEVDF runqueue outside. This means things like the shares_weight approximation are fully preserved. That is, given a hierarchy like: R | se--G1 / \ G2--se se--G3 / \ | T1--se se--T2 se--T3 This is fully maintained for load tracking, however the EEVDF parts of cfs_rq/se go unused for the intermediates and are instead connected like: _R_ / | \ T1 T2 T3 Since the effective weight of the entities is determined by the hierarchy, this gets recomputed on enqueue,set_next_task and tick. Notably, the effective weight (se->h_load) is computed from the hierarchical fraction: se->load / cfs_rq->load. Since EEVDF is now exclusively operating on rq->cfs, it needs to consider cfs_rq->h_nr_queued rather than cfs_rq->nr_queued. Similarly, only tasks can get delayed, simplifying some of the cgroup cleanup. One place where additional information was required was set_next_task() / put_prev_task(), where we need to track 'current' both in the hierarchical sense (cfs_rq->h_curr) and in the flat sense (cfs_rq->curr). As a result of only having a single level to pick from, much of the complications in pick_next_task() and preemption go away. Since many of the hierarchical operations are still there, this won't immediately fix the performance issues, but hopefully it will fix some of the latency issues.

2026-06-30sched/fair: Add cgroup_mode: maxPeter Zijlstra
In order to avoid the average CPU fraction avg(F_g_n) becoming tiny '1/N', assume each cgroup is maximally concurrent and distrubute 'N*weight', such that: F_g_n' = N * F_g_n Giving: avg(F_g_n') = N*avg(F_g_n) ~ N * 1/N = 1 And while this sounds like it solves things, remember what that ~ meant. There is the corner case when a cgroup is minimally loaded, eg a single runnable task, therefore limit the CPU fraction to that of a nice -20 task to avoid getting too much load. This last bit is what makes it different from a previous proposal to allow raising cpu.weight to '100 * N', that would not limit the mininal concurrency case and results in a very large F_g_n. And just like F_g_n << 1 is problematic, so is F_g_n >> 1 for the exact same reasons (it would drown the kthreads, but it also risks overflowing the load values). So while this might appear to be a better scheme than the current default scheme, it doesn't really handle less than maximal concurrency nicely -- it clips and introduces artificially large weights. So where the traditional SMP mode works well when nr_tasks << nr_cpus, MAX doesn't work well in that regime and vice-versa. The meaning of "cpu.weight" would be: weight per allowed CPU.

2026-06-29vfio/pci: Latch all module parameters per deviceAlex Williamson
The vfio-pci module parameters of disable_idle_d3, nointxmask, and disable_vga latch vfio-pci policy into vfio-pci-core globals each time the vfio-pci module is initialized. The disable_idle_d3 parameter has already migrated to a per-device flag in order to provide consistency for refcounted PM operations for the lifetime of the device registration. Pull the remaining vfio-pci module-parameter policy out of vfio-pci-core into per-device flags set at device initialization. This also restores the mutable aspect of the disable_idle_d3 and nointxmask module parameters for vfio-pci, with the caveat that the parameters are latched into the device at probe. A notable change for variant drivers is that their devices are no longer affected by vfio-pci module parameters and those drivers may need to adopt similar module parameters if any devices have a hidden dependency on vfio-pci setting non-default policy.

Note that the virq_disabled and bardirty flags are relocated to fill an existing hole in the structure.

2026-06-29vfio/pci: Latch disable_idle_d3 per deviceAlex Williamson
When disable_idle_d3 was introduced in vfio-pci, it directly manipulated the device power state with pci_set_power_state(). There were no refcounts to maintain or balanced operations, we could unconditionally bring the device to D0 and conditionally move it to D3hot. Therefore the module parameter was made writable. Later, in commit c61302aa48f7 ("vfio/pci: Move module parameters to vfio_pci.c"), as part of the vfio-pci-core split, the writable aspect of the module parameter was nullified. The parameter value could still be changed through sysfs, but the vfio-pci driver latched the values into vfio-pci-core globals at module init. Loading the vfio-pci module, or unloading and reloading, with non-default or different values could change the globals relative to existing devices bound to vfio-pci variant drivers. Runtime PM was introduced in commit 7ab5e10eda02 ("vfio/pci: Move the unused device into low power state with runtime PM"), which marks the point where power states became refcounted. PM get and put operations need to be balanced, but the same module operations noted above can change the global variables relative to those devices already bound to vfio-pci variant drivers. This introduces a window where PM operations can now become unbalanced. To resolve this with a narrow footprint for stable backports, the disable_idle_d3 flag is latched into the vfio_pci_core_device at the time of initialization, such that the device always operates with a consistent value. NB. vfio_pci_dev_set_try_reset() now unconditionally raises the runtime PM usage count around bus reset to account for disable_idle_d3 becoming a per-device rather than global flag. When this flag is set, the additional get/put pair is harmless and allows continued use of the shared vfio_pci_dev_set_pm_runtime_get() helper.

2026-06-29regulator: max14577: fix set_mode clobbering enable on MAX77836 LDOsJad Keskes
So the PWRMD field in CNFG1_LDO is both the enable bit and the mode. You can't change one without stepping on the other. The problem is that enable() from the regulator core just writes enable_mask (which is PWRMD_NORMAL). If you'd called set_mode(LPM) then disabled and re-enabled, the mode gets reset to NORMAL. And set_mode updates the register through the same field, so it can accidentally enable a disabled regulator. Fix it by storing the mode in per-regulator data. A custom enable writes whatever mode was last set. set_mode only touches hardware if the regulator is already on; otherwise it just caches the value.

No usermodehelper currently does this so we don't need to worry about this restriction. Set .umh = 1 in user_mode_thread(). At this stage pid 1's fs points to rootfs which is the same as kthreadd's fs, so this is functionally equivalent.

Fix nullfs_userspace_init() to compare against userspace_init_fs instead of &init_fs. When PID 1 unshares its filesystem state, revert userspace_init_fs to init_fs's root (nullfs) so that stale filesystem state is not silently inherited by kworkers and usermodehelpers. At this stage PID 1's fs still points to rootfs (set by init_mount_tree), so userspace_init_fs points to rootfs and scoped_with_init_fs() is functionally equivalent to its previous no-op behavior.
