Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "Core scheduler changes:

   - Make migrate_{en,dis}able() inline, to improve performance
     (Menglong Dong)

   - Move STDL_INIT() functions out-of-line (Peter Zijlstra)

   - Unify the SCHED_{SMT,CLUSTER,MC} Kconfig (Peter Zijlstra)

  Fair scheduling:

   - Defer throttling to when tasks exit to user-space, to reduce the
     chance & impact of throttle-preemption with held locks and other
     resources (Aaron Lu, Valentin Schneider)

   - Get rid of sched_domains_curr_level hack for tl->cpumask(), as the
     warning was getting triggered on certain topologies (Peter
     Zijlstra)

  Misc cleanups & fixes:

   - Header cleanups (Menglong Dong)

   - Fix race in push_dl_task() (Harshit Agarwal)"

arch: Add the macro COMPILE_OFFSETS to all the asm-offsets.c

2025-09-25T07:57:15+00:00

The include/generated/asm-offsets.h is generated in Kbuild during
compiling from arch/SRCARCH/kernel/asm-offsets.c. When we want to
generate another similar offset header file, circular dependency can
happen.

For example, we want to generate a offset file include/generated/test.h,
which is included in include/sched/sched.h. If we generate asm-offsets.h
first, it will fail, as include/sched/sched.h is included in asm-offsets.c
and include/generated/test.h doesn't exist; If we generate test.h first,
it can't success neither, as include/generated/asm-offsets.h is included
by it.

In x86_64, the macro COMPILE_OFFSETS is used to avoid such circular
dependency. We can generate asm-offsets.h first, and if the
COMPILE_OFFSETS is defined, we don't include the "generated/test.h".

And we define the macro COMPILE_OFFSETS for all the asm-offsets.c for this
purpose.

arch: copy_thread: pass clone_flags as u64

2025-09-01T13:31:34+00:00

With the introduction of clone3 in commit 7f192e3cd316 ("fork: add
clone3") the effective bit width of clone_flags on all architectures was
increased from 32-bit to 64-bit, with a new type of u64 for the flags.
However, for most consumers of clone_flags the interface was not
changed from the previous type of unsigned long.

While this works fine as long as none of the new 64-bit flag bits
(CLONE_CLEAR_SIGHAND and CLONE_INTO_CGROUP) are evaluated, this is still
undesirable in terms of the principle of least surprise.

Thus, this commit fixes all relevant interfaces of the copy_thread
function that is called from copy_process to consistently pass
clone_flags as u64, so that no truncation to 32-bit integers occurs on
32-bit architectures.

hexagon: ptrace: Use USER_REGSET_NOTE_TYPE() to specify regset note names

2025-07-15T05:27:47+00:00

Instead of having the core code guess the note name for each regset,
use USER_REGSET_NOTE_TYPE() to pick the correct name from elf.h.

arch: use always-$(KBUILD_BUILTIN) for vmlinux.lds

2025-06-07T05:38:07+00:00

The extra-y syntax is deprecated. Instead, use always-$(KBUILD_BUILTIN),
which behaves equivalently.

hexagon: Fix unbalanced spinlock in die()

2025-01-31T02:46:06+00:00

die executes holding the spinlock of &die.lock and unlock
it after printing the oops message.
However in the code if the notify_die() returns NOTIFY_STOP
, die() exit with returning 1 but never unlocked the spinlock.

Fix this by adding spin_unlock_irq(&die.lock) before returning.

Null check for 'resource' before assignment is unnecessary because the

mm: remove legacy install_special_mapping() code

2024-09-02T03:26:13+00:00

All relevant architectures had already been converted to the new interface
(which just has an underscore in front of the name - not very imaginative
naming), this just force-converts the stragglers.

The modern interface is almost identical to the old one, except instead of
the page pointer it takes a "struct vm_special_mapping" that describes the
mapping (and contains the page pointer as one member), and it returns the
resulting 'vma' instead of just the error code.

Getting rid of the old interface also gets rid of some special casing,
which had caused problems with the mremap extensions to "struct
vm_special_mapping".
