Using "@argname@" in kernel-doc produces "argname****" (with "argname" in
bold) in the generated html output, so use the expected kernel-doc
notation of just "@argname" instead.

"Fixes:" lines are added in case Matthew's patch [1] is backported.

<title>iov_iter: use iov_offset for length calculation in iov_iter_aligned_bvec</title>

<id>334d7c4fb60cf21e0abac134d92fe49e9b04377e</id>
<content type='text'>
If iov_offset is non-zero, then we need to consider iov_offset in length
calculation, otherwise we might pass smaller IOs such as 512 bytes, in
below scenario [1].

This issue is reproducible using lib-uring test/fixed-seg.c application
with fixed buffer on a 512 LBA formatted device.

[1]

At present we pass the alignment check, for 512 LBA formatted devices,
len_mask = 511 when IO is smaller, i-&gt;count = 512 has an offset,
i-&gt;io_offset = 3584 with bvec values, bvec-&gt;bv_offset = 256,
bvec-&gt;bv_len = 3840.  In short, the first 256 bytes are in the current
page, next 256 bytes are in the another page.  Ideally we expect to
fail the IO.


I can think of 2 userspace scenarios where we experience this.

a: From userspace, we observe a different behaviour when device LBA
   size is 512 vs 4096 bytes.  For 4096 LBA formatted device, I see the
   same liburing test [2] failing, whereas 512 the test passes without
   this.  This is reproducible everytime.

   [2] https://github.com/axboe/liburing/

b: Although I was not able to reproduce the below condition, but I
   suspect below case should be possible from user space for devices
   with 512 LBA formatted device.  Lets say from userspace while
   allocating a virtually single chunk of memory, if we get 2 physical
   chunk of memory, and IO happens to be at the boundary of first
   physical chunk with length crossing first chunk, then we allow IOs
   to proceed and hence we might map wrong physical address length and
   proceed with IO rather than failing.

Effectively this is a write crossing the page boundary.

Failures inside codetag_load_module() are currently ignored.  As a result
an error there would not cause a module load failure and freeing of the
associated resources.  Correct this behavior by propagating the error code
to the caller and handling possible errors.  With this change, error to
allocate percpu counters, which happens at this stage, will not be ignored
and will cause a module load failure and freeing of resources.  With this
change we also do not need to disable memory allocation profiling when
this error happens, instead we fail to load the module.

The assembly is originally based on the ARM NEON and int.uc, but uses
RISC-V vector instructions to implement the RAID6 syndrome and
recovery calculations.

The functions are tested on QEMU running with the option "-icount shift=0":

  raid6: rvvx1    gen()  1008 MB/s
  raid6: rvvx2    gen()  1395 MB/s
  raid6: rvvx4    gen()  1584 MB/s
  raid6: rvvx8    gen()  1694 MB/s
  raid6: int64x8  gen()   113 MB/s
  raid6: int64x4  gen()   116 MB/s
  raid6: int64x2  gen()   272 MB/s
  raid6: int64x1  gen()   229 MB/s
  raid6: using algorithm rvvx8 gen() 1694 MB/s
  raid6: .... xor() 1000 MB/s, rmw enabled
  raid6: using rvv recovery algorithm

Pull more MM updates from Andrew Morton:

 - "zram: support algorithm-specific parameters" from Sergey Senozhatsky
   adds infrastructure for passing algorithm-specific parameters into
   zram. A single parameter `winbits' is implemented at this time.

 - "memcg: nmi-safe kmem charging" from Shakeel Butt makes memcg
   charging nmi-safe, which is required by BFP, which can operate in NMI
   context.

 - "Some random fixes and cleanup to shmem" from Kemeng Shi implements
   small fixes and cleanups in the shmem code.

 - "Skip mm selftests instead when kernel features are not present" from
   Zi Yan fixes some issues in the MM selftest code.

 - "mm/damon: build-enable essential DAMON components by default" from
   SeongJae Park reworks DAMON Kconfig to make it easier to enable
   CONFIG_DAMON.

<title>iov: remove copy_page_from_iter_atomic()</title>

<id>d9736929445e7f4c60f0093af61ff0b52e2d4412</id>
<content type='text'>
All callers now use copy_folio_from_iter_atomic(), so convert
copy_page_from_iter_atomic().  While I'm in there, use kmap_local_folio()
and pagefault_disable() instead of kmap_atomic().  That allows preemption
and/or task migration to happen during the copy_from_user().  Also use the
new folio_test_partial_kmap() predicate instead of open-coding it.
