2025-07-10Merge branch 'virtio_udp_tunnel_08_07_2025' of ↵Jakub Kicinski
https://github.com/pabeni/linux-devel Paolo Abeni says: ==================== virtio: introduce GSO over UDP tunnel Some virtualized deployments use UDP tunnel pervasively and are impacted negatively by the lack of GSO support for such kind of traffic in the virtual NIC driver. The virtio_net specification recently introduced support for GSO over UDP tunnel, this series updates the virtio implementation to support such a feature. Currently the kernel virtio support limits the feature space to 64, while the virtio specification allows for a larger number of features. Specifically the GSO-over-UDP-tunnel-related virtio features use bits 65-69. The first four patches in this series rework the virtio and vhost feature support to cope with up to 128 bits. The limit is set by a define and could be easily raised in future, as needed. This implementation choice is aimed at keeping the code churn as limited as possible. For the same reason, only the virtio_net driver is reworked to leverage the extended feature space; all other virtio/vhost drivers are unaffected, but could be upgraded to support the extended features space in a later time. The last four patches bring in the actual GSO over UDP tunnel support. As per specification, some additional fields are introduced into the virtio net header to support the new offload. The presence of such fields depends on the negotiated features. New helpers are introduced to convert the UDP-tunneled skb metadata to an extended virtio net header and vice versa. Such helpers are used by the tun and virtio_net driver to cope with the newly supported offloads. Tested with basic stream transfer with all the possible permutations of host kernel/qemu/guest kernel with/without GSO over UDP tunnel support. ==================== Link: https://patch.msgid.link/cover.1751874094.git.pabeni@redhat.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>

2025-07-10PM: hibernate: add new api pm_hibernate_is_recovering()Samuel Zhang
dev_pm_ops.thaw() is called in following cases: * normal case: after hibernation image has been created. * error case 1: creation of a hibernation image has failed. * error case 2: restoration from a hibernation image has failed. For normal case, it is called mainly for resume storage devices for saving the hibernation image. Other devices that are not involved in the image saving do not need to resume the device. But since there's no api to know which case thaw() is called, device drivers can't conditionally resume device in thaw(). The new pm_hibernate_is_recovering() is such a api to query if thaw() is called in normal case. Signed-off-by: Samuel Zhang <guoqing.zhang@amd.com> Acked-by: Rafael J.

2025-07-10iommu: Pass in a driver-level user data structure to viommu_init opNicolin Chen
The new type of vIOMMU for tegra241-cmdqv allows user space VM to use one of its virtual command queue HW resources exclusively. This requires user space to mmap the corresponding MMIO page from kernel space for direct HW control. To forward the mmap info (offset and length), iommufd should add a driver specific data structure to the IOMMUFD_CMD_VIOMMU_ALLOC ioctl, for driver to output the info during the vIOMMU initialization back to user space. Similar to the existing ioctls and their IOMMU handlers, add a user_data to viommu_init op to bridge between iommufd and drivers.

2025-07-10uapi: export PROCFS_ROOT_INOAleksa Sarai
The root inode of /proc having a fixed inode number has been part of the core kernel ABI since its inception, and recently some userspace programs (mainly container runtimes) have started to explicitly depend on this behaviour. The main reason this is useful to userspace is that by checking that a suspect /proc handle has fstype PROC_SUPER_MAGIC and is PROCFS_ROOT_INO, they can then use openat2(RESOLVE_{NO_{XDEV,MAGICLINK},BENEATH}) to ensure that there isn't a bind-mount that replaces some procfs file with a different one. This kind of attack has lead to security issues in container runtimes in the past (such as CVE-2019-19921) and libraries like libpathrs[1] use this feature of procfs to provide safe procfs handling functions. There was also some trailing whitespace in the "struct proc_dir_entry" initialiser, so fix that up as well.

2025-07-09relayfs: support a counter tracking if data is too big to writeJason Xing
It really doesn't matter if the user/admin knows what the last too big value is. Record how many times this case is triggered would be helpful. Solve the existing issue where relay_reset() doesn't restore the value. Store the counter in the per-cpu buffer structure instead of the global buffer structure. It also solves the racy condition which is likely to happen when a few of per-cpu buffers encounter the too big data case and then access the global field last_toobig without lock protection. Remove the printk in relay_close() since kernel module can directly call relay_stats() as they want.

2025-07-09relayfs: support a counter tracking if per-cpu buffers is fullJason Xing
When using relay mechanism, we often encounter the case where new data are lost or old unconsumed data are overwritten because of slow reader. Add 'full' field in per-cpu buffer structure to detect if the above case is happening. Relay has two modes: 1) non-overwrite mode, 2) overwrite mode. So buffer being full here respectively means: 1) relayfs doesn't intend to accept new data and then simply drop them, or 2) relayfs is going to start over again and overwrite old unread data with new data. Note: this counter doesn't need any explicit lock to protect from being modified by different threads for the better performance consideration. Writers calling __relay_write/relay_write should consider how to use the lock and ensure it performs under the lock protection, thus it's not necessary to add a new small lock here.

2025-07-09relayfs: abolish prev_paddingJason Xing
Patch series "relayfs: misc changes", v5. The series mostly focuses on the error counters which helps every user debug their own kernel module. This patch (of 5): prev_padding represents the unused space of certain subbuffer. If the content of a call of relay_write() exceeds the limit of the remainder of this subbuffer, it will skip storing in the rest space and record the start point as buf->prev_padding in relay_switch_subbuf(). Since the buf is a per-cpu big buffer, the point of prev_padding as a global value for the whole buffer instead of a single subbuffer (whose padding info is stored in buf->padding[]) seems meaningless from the real use cases, so we don't bother to record it any more.

GUP uses pXX_devmap() calls to see if it needs to a get a reference on the associated pgmap data structure to ensure the pages won't go away. However it's a driver responsibility to ensure that if pages are mapped (ie. discoverable by GUP) that they are not offlined or removed from the memmap so there is no need to hold a reference on the pgmap data structure to ensure this. Furthermore mappings with PFN_DEV are no longer created, hence this effectively dead code anyway so can be removed.

2025-07-09mm/percpu: conditionally define _shared_alloc_tag via ↵Hao Ge
CONFIG_ARCH_MODULE_NEEDS_WEAK_PER_CPU Recently discovered this entry while checking kallsyms on ARM64: ffff800083e509c0 D _shared_alloc_tag If ARCH_NEEDS_WEAK_PER_CPU is not defined(it is only defined for s390 and alpha architectures), there's no need to statically define the percpu variable _shared_alloc_tag. Therefore, we need to implement isolation for this purpose. When building the core kernel code for s390 or alpha architectures, ARCH_NEEDS_WEAK_PER_CPU remains undefined (as it is gated by #if defined(MODULE)). However, when building modules for these architectures, the macro is explicitly defined. Therefore, we remove all instances of ARCH_NEEDS_WEAK_PER_CPU from the code and introduced CONFIG_ARCH_MODULE_NEEDS_WEAK_PER_CPU to replace the relevant logic. We can now conditionally define the perpcu variable _shared_alloc_tag based on CONFIG_ARCH_MODULE_NEEDS_WEAK_PER_CPU. This allows architectures (such as s390/alpha) that require weak definitions for percpu variables in modules to include the definition, while others can omit it via compile-time exclusion.

2025-07-09mm/memfd: reserve hugetlb folios before allocationVivek Kasireddy
When we try to allocate a folio via alloc_hugetlb_folio_reserve(), we need to ensure that there is an active reservation associated with the allocation. Otherwise, our allocation request would fail if there are no active reservations made at that moment against any other allocations. This is because alloc_hugetlb_folio_reserve() checks h->resv_huge_pages before proceeding with the allocation. Therefore, to address this issue, we just need to make a reservation (by calling hugetlb_reserve_pages()) before we try to allocate the folio. This will also ensure that proper region/subpool accounting is done associated with our allocation.

2025-07-09mm/hugetlb: make hugetlb_reserve_pages() return nr of entries updatedVivek Kasireddy
Patch series "mm/memfd: Reserve hugetlb folios before allocation", v4. There are cases when we try to pin a folio but discover that it has not been faulted-in. So, we try to allocate it in memfd_alloc_folio() but the allocation request may not succeed if there are no active reservations in the system at that instant. Therefore, making a reservation (by calling hugetlb_reserve_pages()) associated with the allocation will ensure that our request would not fail due to lack of reservations. This will also ensure that proper region/subpool accounting is done with our allocation. This patch (of 3): Currently, hugetlb_reserve_pages() returns a bool to indicate whether the reservation map update for the range [from, to] was successful or not. This is not sufficient for the case where the caller needs to determine how many entries were updated for the range. Therefore, have hugetlb_reserve_pages() return the number of entries updated in the reservation map associated with the range [from, to]. Also, update the callers of hugetlb_reserve_pages() to handle the new return value.

2025-07-09mm: update core kernel code to use vm_flags_t consistentlyLorenzo Stoakes
The core kernel code is currently very inconsistent in its use of vm_flags_t vs. unsigned long. This prevents us from changing the type of vm_flags_t in the future and is simply not correct, so correct this. While this results in rather a lot of churn, it is a critical pre-requisite for a future planned change to VMA flag type. Additionally, update VMA userland tests to account for the changes. To make review easier and to break things into smaller parts, driver and architecture-specific changes is left for a subsequent commit. The code has been adjusted to cascade the changes across all calling code as far as is needed. We will adjust architecture-specific and driver code in a subsequent patch. Overall, this patch does not introduce any functional change.

2025-07-09mm: change vm_get_page_prot() to accept vm_flags_t argumentLorenzo Stoakes
Patch series "use vm_flags_t consistently". The VMA flags field vma->vm_flags is of type vm_flags_t. Right now this is exactly equivalent to unsigned long, but it should not be assumed to be. Much code that references vma->vm_flags already correctly uses vm_flags_t, but a fairly large chunk of code simply uses unsigned long and assumes that the two are equivalent. This series corrects that and has us use vm_flags_t consistently. This series is motivated by the desire to, in a future series, adjust vm_flags_t to be a u64 regardless of whether the kernel is 32-bit or 64-bit in order to deal with the VMA flag exhaustion issue and avoid all the various problems that arise from it (being unable to use certain features in 32-bit, being unable to add new flags except for 64-bit, etc.) This is therefore a critical first step towards that goal. At any rate, using the correct type is of value regardless. We additionally take the opportunity to refer to VMA flags as vm_flags where possible to make clear what we're referring to. Overall, this series does not introduce any functional change. This patch (of 3): We abstract the type of the VMA flags to vm_flags_t, however in may places it is simply assumed this is unsigned long, which is simply incorrect. At the moment this is simply an incongruity, however in future we plan to change this type and therefore this change is a critical requirement for doing so. Overall, this patch does not introduce any functional change.

2025-07-09mm: madvise: use per_vma lock for MADV_FREEBarry Song
MADV_FREE is another option, besides MADV_DONTNEED, for dynamic memory freeing in user-space native or Java heap memory management. For example, jemalloc can be configured to use MADV_FREE, and recent versions of the Android Java heap have also increasingly adopted MADV_FREE. Supporting per-VMA locking for MADV_FREE thus appears increasingly necessary. We have replaced walk_page_range() with walk_page_range_vma(). Along with the proposed madvise_lock_mode by Lorenzo, the necessary infrastructure is now in place to begin exploring per-VMA locking support for MADV_FREE and potentially other madvise using walk_page_range_vma(). This patch adds support for the PGWALK_VMA_RDLOCK walk_lock mode in walk_page_range_vma(), and leverages madvise_lock_mode from madv_behavior to select the appropriate walk_lock—either mmap_lock or per-VMA lock—based on the context. Because we now dynamically update the walk_ops->walk_lock field, we must ensure this is thread-safe. The madvise_free_walk_ops is now defined as a stack variable instead of a global constant.

2025-07-09mm/memory-tier: fix abstract distance calculation overflowLi Zhijian
In mt_perf_to_adistance(), the calculation of abstract distance (adist) involves multiplying several int values including MEMTIER_ADISTANCE_DRAM. *adist = MEMTIER_ADISTANCE_DRAM * (perf->read_latency + perf->write_latency) / (default_dram_perf.read_latency + default_dram_perf.write_latency) * (default_dram_perf.read_bandwidth + default_dram_perf.write_bandwidth) / (perf->read_bandwidth + perf->write_bandwidth); Since these values can be large, the multiplication may exceed the maximum value of an int (INT_MAX) and overflow (Our platform did), leading to an incorrect adist. User-visible impact: The memory tiering subsystem will misinterpret slow memory (like CXL) as faster than DRAM, causing inappropriate demotion of pages from CXL (slow memory) to DRAM (fast memory). For example, we will see the following demotion chains from the dmesg, where Node0,1 are DRAM, and Node2,3 are CXL node: Demotion targets for Node 0: null Demotion targets for Node 1: null Demotion targets for Node 2: preferred: 0-1, fallback: 0-1 Demotion targets for Node 3: preferred: 0-1, fallback: 0-1 Change MEMTIER_ADISTANCE_DRAM to be a long constant by writing it with the 'L' suffix. This prevents the overflow because the multiplication will then be done in the long type which has a larger range.

2025-07-09mm/pagewalk: split walk_page_range_novma() into kernel/user partsLorenzo Stoakes
walk_page_range_novma() is rather confusing - it supports two modes, one used often, the other used only for debugging. The first mode is the common case of traversal of kernel page tables, which is what nearly all callers use this for. Secondly it provides an unusual debugging interface that allows for the traversal of page tables in a userland range of memory even for that memory which is not described by a VMA. It is far from certain that such page tables should even exist, but perhaps this is precisely why it is useful as a debugging mechanism. As a result, this is utilised by ptdump only. Historically, things were reversed - ptdump was the only user, and other parts of the kernel evolved to use the kernel page table walking here. Since we have some complicated and confusing locking rules for the novma case, it makes sense to separate the two usages into their own functions. Doing this also provide self-documentation as to the intent of the caller - are they doing something rather unusual or are they simply doing a standard kernel page table walk? We therefore establish two separate functions - walk_page_range_debug() for this single usage, and walk_kernel_page_table_range() for general kernel page table walking. The walk_page_range_debug() function is currently used to traverse both userland and kernel mappings, so we maintain this and in the case of kernel mappings being traversed, we have walk_page_range_debug() invoke walk_kernel_page_table_range() internally. We additionally make walk_page_range_debug() internal to mm.

2025-07-09mm/filemap: allow arch to request folio size for exec memoryRyan Roberts
Change the readahead config so that if it is being requested for an executable mapping, do a synchronous read into a set of folios with an arch-specified order and in a naturally aligned manner. We no longer center the read on the faulting page but simply align it down to the previous natural boundary. Additionally, we don't bother with an asynchronous part. On arm64 if memory is physically contiguous and naturally aligned to the "contpte" size, we can use contpte mappings, which improves utilization of the TLB. When paired with the "multi-size THP" feature, this works well to reduce dTLB pressure. However iTLB pressure is still high due to executable mappings having a low likelihood of being in the required folio size and mapping alignment, even when the filesystem supports readahead into large folios (e.g. XFS). The reason for the low likelihood is that the current readahead algorithm starts with an order-0 folio and increases the folio order by 2 every time the readahead mark is hit. But most executable memory tends to be accessed randomly and so the readahead mark is rarely hit and most executable folios remain order-0. So let's special-case the read(ahead) logic for executable mappings. The trade-off is performance improvement (due to more efficient storage of the translations in iTLB) vs potential for making reclaim more difficult (due to the folios being larger so if a part of the folio is hot the whole thing is considered hot). But executable memory is a small portion of the overall system memory so I doubt this will even register from a reclaim perspective. I've chosen 64K folio size for arm64 which benefits both the 4K and 16K base page size configs. Crucially the same amount of data is still read (usually 128K) so I'm not expecting any read amplification issues. I don't anticipate any write amplification because text is always RO. Note that the text region of an ELF file could be populated into the page cache for other reasons than taking a fault in a mmapped area. The most common case is due to the loader read()ing the header which can be shared with the beginning of text. So some text will still remain in small folios, but this simple, best effort change provides good performance improvements as is. Confine this special-case approach to the bounds of the VMA. This prevents wasting memory for any padding that might exist in the file between sections. Previously the padding would have been contained in order-0 folios and would be easy to reclaim. But now it would be part of a larger folio so more difficult to reclaim. Solve this by simply not reading it into memory in the first place. Benchmarking ============ The below shows pgbench and redis benchmarks on Graviton3 arm64 system. First, confirmation that this patch causes more text to be contained in 64K folios: +----------------------+---------------+---------------+---------------+ | File-backed folios by| system boot | pgbench | redis | | size as percentage of+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+ | all mapped text mem |before | after |before | after |before | after | +======================+=======+=======+=======+=======+=======+=======+ | base-page-4kB | 78% | 30% | 78% | 11% | 73% | 14% | | thp-aligned-8kB | 1% | 0% | 0% | 0% | 1% | 0% | | thp-aligned-16kB | 17% | 4% | 17% | 3% | 20% | 4% | | thp-aligned-32kB | 1% | 1% | 1% | 2% | 1% | 1% | | thp-aligned-64kB | 3% | 63% | 3% | 81% | 4% | 77% | | thp-aligned-128kB | 0% | 1% | 1% | 1% | 1% | 2% | | thp-unaligned-64kB | 0% | 0% | 0% | 1% | 0% | 1% | | thp-unaligned-128kB | 0% | 1% | 0% | 0% | 0% | 0% | | thp-partial | 0% | 0% | 0% | 1% | 0% | 1% | +----------------------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+ | cont-aligned-64kB | 4% | 65% | 4% | 83% | 6% | 79% | +----------------------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+ The above shows that for both workloads (each isolated with cgroups) as well as the general system state after boot, the amount of text backed by 4K and 16K folios reduces and the amount backed by 64K folios increases significantly. And the amount of text that is contpte-mapped significantly increases (see last row). And this is reflected in performance improvement. "(I)" indicates a statistically significant improvement.

2025-07-09mm/readahead: store folio order in struct file_ra_stateRyan Roberts
Previously the folio order of the previous readahead request was inferred from the folio who's readahead marker was hit. But due to the way we have to round to non-natural boundaries sometimes, this first folio in the readahead block is often smaller than the preferred order for that request. This means that for cases where the initial sync readahead is poorly aligned, the folio order will ramp up much more slowly. So instead, let's store the order in struct file_ra_state so we are not affected by any required alignment. We previously made enough room in the struct for a 16 order field. This should be plenty big enough since we are limited to MAX_PAGECACHE_ORDER anyway, which is certainly never larger than ~20. Since we now pass order in struct file_ra_state, page_cache_ra_order() no longer needs it's new_order parameter, so let's remove that. Worked example: Here we are touching pages 17-256 sequentially just as we did in the previous commit, but now that we are remembering the preferred order explicitly, we no longer have the slow ramp up problem.

2025-07-09mm/readahead: make space in struct file_ra_stateRyan Roberts
We need to be able to store the preferred folio order associated with a readahead request in the struct file_ra_state so that we can more accurately increase the order across subsequent readahead requests. But struct file_ra_state is per-struct file, so we don't really want to increase it's size. mmap_miss is currently 32 bits but it is only counted up to 10 * MMAP_LOTSAMISS, which is currently defined as 1000. So 16 bits should be plenty. Redefine it to unsigned short, making room for order as unsigned short in follow up commit.

2025-07-09userfaultfd: correctly prevent registering VM_DROPPABLE regionsTal Zussman
Patch series "mm: userfaultfd: assorted fixes and cleanups", v3. Two fixes and two cleanups for userfaultfd. Note that the third patch yields a small change in the ABI, but we seem to have concluded that it is acceptable in this case. This patch (of 4): vma_can_userfault() masks off non-userfaultfd VM flags from vm_flags. The vm_flags & VM_DROPPABLE test will then always be false, incorrectly allowing VM_DROPPABLE regions to be registered with userfaultfd. Additionally, vm_flags is not guaranteed to correspond to the actual VMA's flags. Fix this test by checking the VMA's flags directly.

2025-07-09drivers/base/node: optimize memory block registration to reduce boot timeDonet Tom
Patch series "drivers/base/node.c: optimization and cleanups", v7. This patch (of 7) During node device initialization, `memory blocks` are registered under each NUMA node. The `memory blocks` to be registered are identified using the node's start and end PFNs, which are obtained from the node's pg_data However, not all PFNs within this range necessarily belong to the same node—some may belong to other nodes. Additionally, due to the discontiguous nature of physical memory, certain sections within a `memory block` may be absent. As a result, `memory blocks` that fall between a node's start and end PFNs may span across multiple nodes, and some sections within those blocks may be missing. `Memory blocks` have a fixed size, which is architecture dependent. Due to these considerations, the memory block registration is currently performed as follows: for_each_online_node(nid): start_pfn = pgdat->node_start_pfn; end_pfn = pgdat->node_start_pfn + node_spanned_pages; for_each_memory_block_between(PFN_PHYS(start_pfn), PFN_PHYS(end_pfn)) mem_blk = memory_block_id(pfn_to_section_nr(pfn)); pfn_mb_start=section_nr_to_pfn(mem_blk->start_section_nr) pfn_mb_end = pfn_start + memory_block_pfns - 1 for (pfn = pfn_mb_start; pfn < pfn_mb_end; pfn++): if (get_nid_for_pfn(pfn) != nid): continue; else do_register_memory_block_under_node(nid, mem_blk, MEMINIT_EARLY); Here, we derive the start and end PFNs from the node's pg_data, then determine the memory blocks that may belong to the node. For each `memory block` in this range, we inspect all PFNs it contains and check their associated NUMA node ID. If a PFN within the block matches the current node, the memory block is registered under that node. If CONFIG_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT is enabled, get_nid_for_pfn() performs a binary search in the `memblock regions` to determine the NUMA node ID for a given PFN. If it is not enabled, the node ID is retrieved directly from the struct page. On large systems, this process can become time-consuming, especially since we iterate over each `memory block` and all PFNs within it until a match is found. When CONFIG_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT is enabled, the additional overhead of the binary search increases the execution time significantly, potentially leading to soft lockups during boot. In this patch, we iterate over `memblock region` to identify the `memory blocks` that belong to the current NUMA node. `memblock regions` are contiguous memory ranges, each associated with a single NUMA node, and they do not span across multiple nodes. for_each_memory_region(r): // r => region if (!node_online(r->nid)): continue; else for_each_memory_block_between(r->base, r->base + r->size - 1): do_register_memory_block_under_node(r->nid, mem_blk, MEMINIT_EARLY); We iterate over all memblock regions, and if the node associated with the region is online, we calculate the start and end memory blocks based on the region's start and end PFNs. We then register all the memory blocks within that range under the region node. Test Results on My system with 32TB RAM ======================================= 1.

2025-07-09mm/gup: remove (VM_)BUG_ONsDavid Hildenbrand
Especially once we hit one of the assertions in sanity_check_pinned_pages(), observing follow-up assertions failing in other code can give good clues about what went wrong, so use VM_WARN_ON_ONCE instead. While at it, let's just convert all VM_BUG_ON to VM_WARN_ON_ONCE as well. Add one comment for the pfn_valid() check. We have to introduce VM_WARN_ON_ONCE_VMA() to make that fly. Drop the BUG_ON after mmap_read_lock_killable(), if that ever returns something > 0 we're in bigger trouble. Convert the other BUG_ON's into VM_WARN_ON_ONCE as well, they are in a similar domain "should never happen", but more reasonable to check for during early testing.
