Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:

 - "selftests/mm: clean up build output and verbosity" (Li Wang)

   Remove some noise from the MM selftests build

 - "mm: Free contiguous order-0 pages efficiently" (Ryan Roberts)

   Speed up the freeing of a batch of 0-order pages by first scanning
   them for coalescing opportunities. This is applicable to vfree() and
   to the releasing of frozen pages

 - "mm/damon: introduce DAMOS failed region quota charge ratio"
   (SeongJae Park)

   Address a DAMOS usability issue: The DAMOS quota often exhausts
   prematurely because it charges for all memory attempted, causing slow
   and inconsistent performance when actions fail on unreclaimable
   memory.

   To fix this, a new feature lets users set a smaller, flexible quota
   charge ratio (via a numerator and denominator) for failed regions.
   Since failed actions cause less overhead, reducing their quota cost
   ensures more predictable and efficient DAMOS processing

 - "selftests/cgroup: improve zswap tests robustness and support large
   page sizes" (Li Wang)

   Fix various spurious failures and improves the overall robustness of
   the cgroup zswap selftests

 - "fix MAP_DROPPABLE not supported errno" (Anthony Yznaga)

   Fix an issue in the mlock selftests on arm32

 - "mm: huge_memory: clean up defrag sysfs with shared" (Breno Leitao)

   Use the special vprintf() gfp_t conversion in various places

 - "mm: Fix vmemmap optimization accounting and initialization" (Muchun
   Song)

   Fix several bugs in the vmemmap optimization, mainly around incorrect
   page accounting and memmap initialization in the DAX and memory
   hotplug paths. It also fixes pageblock migratetype initialization and
   struct page initialization for ZONE_DEVICE compound pages

 - "mm/damon: repost non-hotfix reviewed patches in damon/next tree"

   A sprinkle of unrelated minor bugfixes for DAMON

 - "mm: remove page_mapped()" (David Hildenbrand)

   Remove this function from the tree, replacing it with folio_mapped()

 - "mm/damon: let DAMON be paused and resumed" (SeongJae Park)

   Allow DAMON to be paused and resumed without losing its current state

 - "kasan: hw_tags: Disable tagging for stack and page-tables" (Muhammad
   Usama Anjum)

   Simplify and speed up kasan by removing its ineffective tagging of
   stacks and page tables

 - "mm/damon/reclaim,lru_sort: monitor all system rams by default"
   (SeongJae Park)

   Simplify deployment on diverse hardware like NUMA systems by updating
   DAMON_RECLAIM and DAMON_LRU_SORT to automatically monitor the
   physical address range covering all System RAM areas by default,
   replacing the overly restrictive behavior that only targeted the
   single largest memory block to save on negligible overhead

 - "mm/damon/sysfs: document filters/ directory as deprecated" (SeongJae
   Park)

   Update some DAMON docs

 - "mm: use spinlock guards for zone lock" (Dmitry Ilvokhin)

   Switch zone-&gt;lock handling over to using the guard() mechanisms

 - "mm/filemap: tighten mmap_miss hit accounting" (fujunjie)

   Fix a flaw where the mmap_miss counter over-credited page cache hits
   during fault-arounds and page-fault retries. This results in
   significant reduction of redundant synchronous mmap readahead I/O,
   drastically cutting down execution time and gigabytes read for sparse
   random or strided memory access workloads

 - "selftests/cgroup: Fix false positive failures in test_percpu_basic"
   (Li Wang)

   Fix a couple of false-positives in the cgroup kmem selftests

 - "mm/damon/reclaim: support monitoring intervals auto-tuning"
   (SeongJae Park)

   Add a new parameter to DAMON permitting DAMON_RECLAIM to
   automatically tune DAMON's sampling and aggregation intervals

 - "mm/damon/stat: add kdamond_pid parameter" (SeongJae Park)

   Change DAMON_STAT to provide the pid of its kdamond

 - "mm/kmemleak: dedupe verbose scan output" (Breno Leitao)

   Remove large amounts of duplicated backtraces from the verbose-mode
   kmemleak output

 - "mm: remove CONFIG_HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE (Part 1)" (David
   Hildenbrand)

   Reduce our use of CONFIG_HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE, with a view to
   removing it entirely in a later series

 - "mm/damon: validate min_region_size to be power of 2" (Liew Rui Yan)

   Prevent users from passing a non-power-of-2 value of `addr_unit', as
   this later results in undesirable behavior

 - "mm: document read_pages and simplify usage" (Frederick Mayle)

 - "tools/mm/page-types: Fix misc bugs" (Ye Liu)

   Fix three issues in tools/mm/page-types.c

 - "mm: misc cleanups from __GFP_UNMAPPED series" (Brendan Jackman)

   Implement several cleanups in the page allocator and related code

 - "mm, swap: swap table phase IV: unify allocation" (Kairui Song)

   Unify the allocation and charging of anon and shmem swap in folios,
   provides better synchronization, consolidates the metadata
   management, hence dropping the static array and map, and improves
   performance

 - "mm/damon: introduce data attributes monitoring" (SeongJae Park(

   Extend DAMON to monitor general data attributes other than accesses

 - "mm/vmalloc: free unused pages on vrealloc() shrink" (Shivam Kalra)

   Implement the TODO in vrealloc() to unmap and free unused pages when
   shrinking across a page boundary

 - "mm/damon: documentation and comment fixes" (niecheng)

 - "remove mmap_action success, error hooks" (Lorenzo Stoakes)

   Eliminate custom hooks from mmap_action by removing the problematic
   success_hook which allowed drivers to improperly access uninitialized
   VMAs. It replaces the error_hook with a simple error-code field and
   updates the memory char driver accordingly

 - "mm/damon: minor improvements for code readability and tests"
   (SeongJae Park)

 - "mm/damon: fix macro arguments and clarify quota goals doc" (Maksym
   Shcherba)

 - "userfaultfd: merge fs/userfaultfd.c into mm/userfaultfd.c" (Mike
   Rapoport)

 - "mm/mglru: improve reclaim loop and dirty folio" (Kairui Song and
   others)

   Clean up and slightly improves MGLRU's reclaim loop and dirty
   writeback handling. Large performance improvements are measured

 - "use vma locks for proc/pid/{smaps|numa_maps} reads" (Suren
   Baghdasaryan)

   Use per-vma locks when reading /proc/pid/smaps and numa_maps similar
   to reduce contention on central mmap_lock

 - "refactors thpsize_shmem_enabled_store() and thpsize_shmem_enabled_show()"
   (Ran Xiaokai)

   Some cleanup work in the THP code

 - "selftests/memfd: fix compilation warnings" (Konstantin Khorenko)

   Fix a few build glitches in the memfd selftest code.

 - "memcg: shrink obj_stock_pcp and cache multiple objcgs" (Shakeel
   Butt)

   Resolve a 68% performance regression caused by NUMA-node cache
   thrashing around struct obj_stock_pcp by shrinking its existing
   fields and expanding it into a multi-slot array that caches up to
   five obj_cgroup pointers per CPU, allowing per-node variants of the
   same memcg to coexist within a single 64-byte cache line.

 - "zram: writeback fixes" (Sergey Senozhatsky)

   address a couple of unrelated zram writeback issues

 - "mm: switch THP shrinker to list_lru" (Johannes Weiner)

   Resolve NUMA-awareness issues and streamlines callsite interaction by
   refactoring and extending the list_lru API to completely replace the
   complex, open-coded deferred split queue for Transparent Huge Pages

 - "mm: improve large folio readahead for exec memory" (Usama Arif)

   Improve large-folio readahead on systems like 64K-page arm64 by
   preventing the mmap_miss check from permanently disabling
   target-oriented VM_EXEC readahead, and by generalizing the
   force_thp_readahead gate to support mappings with any usefully large
   maximum folio order under the cache cap.

 - "userfaultfd/pagemap: pre-existing fixes" (Kiryl Shutsemau)

   Fix a bunch of minor issues in the userfaultfd/pagemap, all of which
   were flagged by Sashiko review of proposed new material

 - "mm/sparse-vmemmap: Provide generic vmemmap_set_pmd() and
   vmemmap_check_pmd()" (Muchun Song)

   Provide generic versions of these two functions so the four
   arch-specific implementations can be removed.

 - "mm/swap, PM: hibernate: fix swapoff race in uswsusp by pinning swap
   device" (Youngjun Park)

   Address a uswsusp-vs-swapoff race and reduces the swap device
   reference taking/releasing frequency.

Pull bpf updates from Alexei Starovoitov:
 "Major changes:

   - Recover from BPF arena page faults using a scratch page and add
     ptep_try_set() for lockless empty-slot installs on x86 and arm64.

     This allows BPF kfuncs to access arena pointers directly.

     The 'arena_direct_access' stable branch was created for this work
     and was pulled into sched-ext and bpf-next trees (Tejun Heo, Kumar
     Kartikeya Dwivedi)

   - Lift old restriction and support 6+ arguments in BPF programs and
     kfuncs on x86 and arm64 (Yonghong Song, Puranjay Mohan)

  Other features and fixes:

   - Add 24-bit BTF vlen and reclaim unused bits in the BTF UAPI to ease
     addition of new BTF kinds (Alan Maguire)

   - Raise the maximum BPF call chain depth from 8 to 16 frames (Alexei
     Starovoitov)

   - Refactor object relationship tracking in the verifier and fix a
     dynptr use-after-free bug (Amery Hung)

   - Harden the signed program loader and reject exclusive maps as inner
     maps (Daniel Borkmann)

   - Replace the verifier min/max bounds fields with a circular number
     (cnum) representation and improve 32-&gt;64 bit range refinements
     (Eduard Zingerman)

   - Introduce the arena library and runtime (libarena) with a buddy
     allocator, rbtree and SPMC queue data structures, ASAN support and
     a parallel test harness. Allow subprograms to return arena pointers
     and switch to a BTF type-tag based __arena annotation (Emil
     Tsalapatis)

   - Cache build IDs in the sleepable stackmap path and avoid faultable
     build ID reads under mm locks (Ihor Solodrai)

   - Introduce the tracing_multi link to attach a single BPF program to
     many kernel functions at once. Allow specifying the uprobe_multi
     target via FD (Jiri Olsa)

   - Extend the bpf_list family of kfuncs with bpf_list_add/del(), and
     bpf_list_is_first/is_last/empty() (Kaitao Cheng)

   - Extend the BPF syscall with common attributes support for
     prog_load, btf_load and map_create (Leon Hwang)

   - Wrap rhashtable as BPF map (Mykyta Yatsenko, Herbert Xu)

   - Add sleepable support for tracepoint programs and fix deadlocks in
     LRU map due to NMI reentry (Mykyta Yatsenko)

   - Fix OOB access in bpf_flow_keys, fix nullness analysis of inner
     arrays, enforce write checks for global subprograms (Nuoqi Gui)

   - Report the maximum combined stack depth and print a breakdown of
     instructions processed per subprogram (Paul Chaignon)

   - Add an XDP load-balancer benchmark and arm64 JIT support for stack
     arguments (Puranjay Mohan)

   - Add kfuncs to traverse over wakeup_sources (Samuel Wu)

   - Allow sleepable BPF programs to use LPM trie maps directly (Vlad
     Poenaru)

   - Many more fixes and cleanups across the verifier, BTF, sockmap,
     devmap, bpffs, security hooks, s390/riscv/loongarch JITs,
     rqspinlock, libbpf, bpftool, selftests"

Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "Futex updates:

   - Optimize futex hash bucket access patterns (Peter Zijlstra)

   - Large series to address the robust futex unlock race for real, by
     Thomas Gleixner:

      "The robust futex unlock mechanism is racy in respect to the
       clearing of the robust_list_head::list_op_pending pointer because
       unlock and clearing the pointer are not atomic.

       The race window is between the unlock and clearing the pending op
       pointer. If the task is forced to exit in this window, exit will
       access a potentially invalid pending op pointer when cleaning up
       the robust list.

       That happens if another task manages to unmap the object
       containing the lock before the cleanup, which results in an UAF.

       In the worst case this UAF can lead to memory corruption when
       unrelated content has been mapped to the same address by the time
       the access happens.

       User space can't solve this problem without help from the kernel.
       This series provides the kernel side infrastructure to help it
       along:

        1) Combined unlock, pointer clearing, wake-up for the
           contended case

        2) VDSO based unlock and pointer clearing helpers with a
           fix-up function in the kernel when user space was interrupted
           within the critical section.

<title>rqspinlock: Fix order in raw_res_spin_(un)lock_irq to allow schedule</title>

raw_res_spin_unlock_irqrestore() calls raw_res_spin_unlock() and then
restores interrupts, this means preemption is enabled when interrupts
are still disabled (as part of raw_res_spin_unlock()) so this cannot
trigger an actual preemption.
This is inconsistent with other spinlock implementations
(raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore() and bpf_res_spin_unlock_irqrestore()
itself).

Adjust the macro to ensure interrupts are enabled before enabling
preemption, allowing to schedule at that point. Make the same
modification in the error path of raw_res_spin_lock_irqsave().

The CONFIG_PROPELLER_CLANG option currently depends on
ARCH_SUPPORTS_PROPELLER_CLANG, but this dependency seems unnecessary.

Remove ARCH_SUPPORTS_PROPELLER_CLANG and allow users to control
Propeller builds solely through CONFIG_PROPELLER_CLANG. This simplifies
the kconfig and avoids potential confusion.

Move the .llvm_bb_addr_map sections grouping to
include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h.

The Propeller documentation has been updated to reflect the most
recent tool location and now includes instructions for arm64.

<title>percpu: Sanitize __percpu_qual include hell</title>

Slapping __percpu_qual into the next available header is sloppy at best.

It's required by __percpu which is defined in compiler_types.h and that is
meant to be included without requiring a boatload of other headers so that
a struct or function declaration can contain a __percpu qualifier w/o
further prerequisites.

This implicit dependency on linux/percpu.h makes that impossible and causes
a major problem when trying to separate headers.

Create asm/percpu_types.h and move it there. Include that from
compiler_types.h and the whole recursion problem goes away.

Fix up UM so it uses the generic header and includes it in the UM_HOST
build, which pulls in compiler_types.h. The USER_CFLAGS fix was suggested
by Richard.

For CONFIG_NR_CPUS &lt; 16K, _Q_PENDING_BITS is 8 and the pending
field occupies bits 8-15 of the lock word. The current comment
documents bit 8 as pending and bits 9-15 as unused, which describes
the pending flag value rather than the field layout.

Describe bits 8-15 as the pending byte so the layout description
is consistent with the lock byte.
