2026-08-04userfaultfd: add UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_RWP and UFFDIO_RWPROTECT plumbingKiryl Shutsemau (Meta)
Add the userspace interface for read-write protection tracking: - UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_RWP register a range for RWP tracking - UFFD_FEATURE_RWP capability bit - UFFDIO_RWPROTECT install / remove RWP on a range Introduce CONFIG_USERFAULTFD_RWP, auto-selected on 64-bit kernels with ARCH_HAS_PTE_PROTNONE and HAVE_ARCH_USERFAULTFD_WP. The symbol gates VM_UFFD_RWP (previously aliased to VM_NONE) and the smaps/trace-flag hooks added in the preparatory patches; without it the UAPI bits added here have nothing to drive and would be unreachable. Registration sets VM_UFFD_RWP on the VMA. Combining MODE_WP with MODE_RWP is rejected because both modes claim the uffd PTE bit. UFFDIO_RWPROTECT is the bidirectional counterpart of UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT: - MODE_RWP change_protection() with MM_CP_UFFD_RWP installs PAGE_NONE and sets the uffd bit on present PTEs - !MODE_RWP change_protection() with MM_CP_UFFD_RWP_RESOLVE restores vma->vm_page_prot and clears the bit userfaultfd_clear_vma() runs the same resolve pass on unregister so RWP state cannot outlive the uffd. Re-registering a range must not drop a mode that installs per-PTE markers (WP or RWP); doing so returns -EBUSY. This also closes a pre-existing window where re-registering without MODE_WP would strand uffd-wp markers: before, those caused extra write-faults but were otherwise benign; with RWP preservation in place, a subsequent mprotect() on a VM_UFFD_RWP VMA would silently promote the stale markers to RWP. The feature is not yet advertised. UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_RWP, UFFD_FEATURE_RWP, and _UFFDIO_RWPROTECT are intentionally absent from UFFD_API_REGISTER_MODES, UFFD_API_FEATURES, and UFFD_API_RANGE_IOCTLS, so UFFDIO_API masks them out and the register-mode validator rejects the bit. The follow-up patch adds fault dispatch and exposes the UAPI.

2026-08-04mm: handle VM_UFFD_RWP in khugepaged, rmap, and GUPKiryl Shutsemau (Meta)
Three mm paths outside the fault handler gate on the uffd PTE bit today: khugepaged (skip collapse on ranges carrying markers), rmap (cap unmap batching), and GUP (force a fault through gup_can_follow_protnone). Extend each to treat VM_UFFD_RWP the same as VM_UFFD_WP; otherwise per-PTE RWP state is silently destroyed or bypassed. khugepaged: try_collapse_pte_mapped_thp() and file_backed_vma_is_retractable() already refuse to collapse or retract page tables on ranges carrying the uffd PTE bit. Broaden the VMA predicate from userfaultfd_wp() to userfaultfd_protected() so VM_UFFD_RWP ranges get the same protection. hpage_collapse_scan_pmd() needs no change — its existing pte_uffd() check already catches an RWP PTE because it carries the uffd bit. rmap: folio_unmap_pte_batch() caps batching at 1 for VM_UFFD_RWP so the restore path handles each PTE with its own marker. GUP: gup_can_follow_protnone() forces a fault on VM_UFFD_RWP VMAs regardless of FOLL_HONOR_NUMA_FAULT. RWP uses protnone as an access-tracking marker, not for NUMA hinting, so any GUP — read or write — must go through the userfaultfd fault path.

2026-08-04mm: preserve RWP marker across PTE rewritesKiryl Shutsemau (Meta)
The uffd PTE bit must survive any kernel path that rewrites a PTE on a VM_UFFD_RWP VMA, otherwise the marker that carries PAGE_NONE semantics is silently dropped and the next access leaks past RWP tracking. Wire the preservation through every path that rewrites a VM_UFFD_RWP PTE. Swap and device-exclusive: do_swap_page(), restore_exclusive_pte(), and unuse_pte() (swapoff()) re-apply PAGE_NONE when the swap PTE carries the uffd bit and the VMA has VM_UFFD_RWP. Migration: remove_migration_pte() and remove_migration_pmd() do the same after the migration entry is replaced with a real PTE/PMD. Fork: __copy_present_ptes(), copy_present_page(), copy_nonpresent_pte(), copy_huge_pmd(), copy_huge_non_present_pmd(), and copy_hugetlb_page_range() keep the uffd bit on the child when the destination VMA has VM_UFFD_RWP, matching the existing VM_UFFD_WP handling. Add VM_UFFD_RWP to VM_COPY_ON_FORK so the flag itself propagates. mprotect(): change_pte_range() and change_huge_pmd() restore PAGE_NONE after pte_modify()/pmd_modify() have recomputed the base protection from a (possibly user-changed) vm_page_prot. pte_modify() preserves _PAGE_UFFD, so the bit stays; we just have to force PAGE_NONE back on top.

2026-08-04mm: add MM_CP_UFFD_RWP change_protection() flagKiryl Shutsemau (Meta)
Preparatory patch. Add the change_protection() primitive that userfaultfd RWP will use. An RWP-protected PTE is PAGE_NONE with the uffd PTE bit set. The PROT_NONE half makes the CPU fault on any access; the uffd bit distinguishes an RWP fault from a plain mprotect(PROT_NONE) or NUMA hinting fault. MM_CP_UFFD_WP and MM_CP_UFFD_RWP share the same PTE bit, so the two cannot be used together on the same range. Two new change_protection() flags: MM_CP_UFFD_RWP install PAGE_NONE and set the uffd bit MM_CP_UFFD_RWP_RESOLVE restore vma->vm_page_prot, clear the uffd bit Both are wired through change_pte_range(), change_huge_pmd(), and hugetlb_change_protection() so anon, shmem, THP, and hugetlb all share the same semantics.

2026-08-04mm: add VM_UFFD_RWP VMA flagKiryl Shutsemau (Meta)
Preparatory patch for userfaultfd read-write protection (RWP). RWP extends userfaultfd protection from plain write-protection (WP) to full read-write protection: accesses to an RWP-protected range -- reads as well as writes -- trap through userfaultfd. Reserve VM_UFFD_RWP, add the userfaultfd_rwp() and userfaultfd_protected() helpers, and wire up the smaps "ur" entry and the trace-flag table the rest of the series will use. The flag is gated on CONFIG_USERFAULTFD_RWP, which is introduced together with the UAPI in a later patch; until then VM_UFFD_RWP aliases VM_NONE and every downstream check folds to dead code. Nothing sets or queries the flag yet.

2026-08-04userfaultfd: test uffd VMA flags through the vma_flags_t APIKiryl Shutsemau (Meta)
The uffd VMA-flag helpers read vma->vm_flags directly. Now that config-gated per-mode masks exist, switch them to the vma_flags_t accessor vma_test_any_mask(), which is the going-forward API and keeps a single place (the VMA_UFFD_* masks) that knows which modes are available on the current build. No functional change: vma_flags_t is in union with vm_flags, so the same bits are read, and the masks fold to the same code the open-coded vm_flags tests produced -- verified identical on gcc and clang, 32- and 64-bit.

2026-08-04mm: rename uffd-wp PTE accessors to uffdKiryl Shutsemau (Meta)
Userfaultfd RWP will reuse the uffd-wp PTE bit to mark access-tracking PTEs, alongside the write-protected ones it already marks. The bit's meaning now depends on the VMA flag (WP or RWP), not on its name. Rename the kernel-internal names that describe the bit: - pte/pmd/huge_pte accessors (and swap variants) - pgtable_supports_uffd() capability query - SCAN_PTE_UFFD khugepaged enum The ftrace string emitted by mm_khugepaged_scan_pmd for this enum is kept as "pte_uffd_wp" so existing trace-based tooling keeps matching. Pure mechanical rename -- no behavior change.

2026-08-04mm: decouple protnone helpers from CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCINGKiryl Shutsemau (Meta)
Patch series "userfaultfd: working set tracking for VM guest memory", v10. This series adds userfaultfd support for tracking the working set of VM guest memory, so a VMM can identify hot pages and reclaim cold ones to tiered or remote storage. This patch (of 15): pte_protnone() and pmd_protnone() detect present-but-inaccessible page table entries. This capability is useful beyond NUMA balancing -- for example, userfaultfd working set tracking uses protnone PTEs to track page access without unmapping pages. Introduce CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_PTE_PROTNONE to decouple the protnone PTE infrastructure from CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING. The six architectures that support protnone PTEs (x86_64, arm64, powerpc, s390, riscv, loongarch) now select this option, and CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING depends on it. No functional change -- the same set of architectures continues to have working protnone support, but the infrastructure is now available independently of NUMA balancing.

2026-08-04mm/swap: colocate page-cluster sysctl with swap readaheadJianyue Wu
Patch series "mm: clean up folio LRU and swap declarations", v9. This series splits folio LRU and swap cleanup into three steps: - move the page-cluster sysctl next to swap readahead in mm/swap_state.c - rename mm/swap.c to mm/folio.c after the swap-specific code moves out - move MM-internal reclaim declarations out of include/linux/swap.h After this series, swap cache and swap-in readahead stay in mm/swap_state.c. Folio LRU helpers live in mm/folio.c, and MM-internal reclaim/workingset declarations move from include/linux/swap.h to mm/internal.h (public LRU helpers used outside mm/ remain in swap.h). The first patch handles the swap-specific page-cluster state before the file rename, so the rename commit only carries folio LRU code. The last patch keeps the LRU helpers used outside mm/ in include/linux/swap.h and moves the internal reclaim/workingset declarations to mm/internal.h. This patch (of 3): page_cluster and the vm.page-cluster sysctl are only used by swap-in readahead in swap_state.c. Move them out of swap.c together with swap_readahead_setup(), and make page_cluster static to that file. Rename swap_setup() while moving it as well. The helper is internal to MM and now only sets up swap readahead defaults and its sysctl hook, so the more specific name matches its reduced scope. Call swap_readahead_setup() from swap_init() after moving it, keeping the readahead defaults and sysctl registration with swap_state.c initialization. swap_setup() previously lived in mm/swap.c, which is built unconditionally, so the vm.page-cluster sysctl was registered also on CONFIG_SWAP=n kernels. After moving the setup into swap_state.c, which is built only when CONFIG_SWAP is enabled, vm.page-cluster is no longer registered there. The knob only tunes swap-in readahead and had no effect without swap.

This can be very confusing when switching between userspace and kernelspace coding, or when dealing with uapi headers that rather should use __ASSEMBLER__ instead. So let's standardize now on the __ASSEMBLER__ macro that is provided by the compilers. This is a completely mechanical patch (done with a simple "sed -i" statement.

Extend the IIO_VAL_DECIMAL64_* family with a femto-scaled variant (scale 15), following the existing MILLI/MICRO/NANO/PICO pattern. Both the read formatting path in __iio_format_value() and the write parsing path in iio_write_channel_info() (via kstrtodec64()) already derive their scale from "type - IIO_VAL_DECIMAL64_BASE", so the new type only needs to be added to the respective switch cases. This is needed by drivers reporting very small SI quantities where the existing pico scale loses precision. For example the Sensirion SLF3S liquid flow sensor reports its volume-flow scale in m^3/s, where the SLF3S-0600F scale is ~1.667e-12 m^3/s: at pico scale only a single significant digit survives, whereas femto scale preserves the full sensor resolution.

table->offset[i] is a u32 from firmware, but was stored into a signed int. A crafted offset like 0xFFFFFFF0 becomes -16, placing hdr 16 bytes before the table buffer. The subsequent avail check was bypassed because the negative int was promoted to a large size_t in the expression "table_sz - offset - sizeof(*hdr)", yielding a large positive avail and letting the out-of-bounds hdr->type read proceed undetected. Store the offset as u32 and validate it with unsigned comparisons before any pointer arithmetic.

2026-08-04security: lsm: allow LSMs to register for late_initcall_sync initYeoreum Yun
There are situations where LSMs have dependencies that might mean they want to be initialised later in the boot process, to ensure those dependencies are available. In particular there are some TPM setups (Arm FF-A devices, SPI attached TPMs) required by IMA which are not guaranteed to be initialised for regular initcall_late. Add an initcall_late_sync option that can be used in these situations.

Peter Ujfalusi <peter.ujfalusi@linux.intel.com> says: Improve handling of some corner cases that are not used by current topology designs, but can be crafted within the rules of a topology file. For example branching topologies, where a single input routed to multiple output endpoints. The already configured part of the graph places constraint on how the new branch can be configured. Handling of process modules also updated to be able to 'guess' what parameters can be changed by the module and allow flexible operation.

2026-08-04mm/slab: add cache_ and slab_needs_objcg() helpersVlastimil Babka (SUSE)
Slabs of some caches never need the objcg part of struct slabobj_ext. Introduce helpers to query this for a cache or a slab. Introduce SLAB_MAY_ACCOUNT flag that is currently only internal and all caches have it set except: - KMALLOC_NORMAL caches, as long as KMALLOC_RECLAIM caches are separate - KMALLOC_NO_OBJ_EXT caches, if they exist For named caches we currently can't derive SLAB_MAY_ACCOUNT from SLAB_ACCOUNT because some caches might be created without SLAB_ACCOUNT and then used both with and without __GFP_ACCOUNT concurrently, allocating obj_ext arrays on demand. So just add the SLAB_MAY_ACCOUNT to all kmem caches, unless kmem accounting is disabled. This can be improved later by finding out all caches used with __GFP_ACCOUNT, creating them with the SLAB_MAY_ACCOUNT flag explicitly, and then ignoring __GFP_ACCOUNT for all other caches (possibly with a warning). To make the evaluation of slab_needs_objcg() faster in the allocation and free fast paths, add a obj_exts_needs_objcg flag into slab itself. This optimization is only available on 64bit architectures where free bits are available for the flag.

2026-08-04mm/slab: introduce kfree_rcu_nolock()Harry Yoo (Oracle)
Currently, k[v]free_rcu() cannot be called in unknown context since it could lead to a deadlock when called in the middle of k[v]free_rcu(). Make users' lives easier by introducing kfree_rcu_nolock() variant, now that kfree_rcu_sheaf() is available on PREEMPT_RT and __kfree_rcu_sheaf() handles unknown context. When sheaves path fails, kfree_rcu_nolock() falls back to defer_kfree_rcu() that uses an irq work to free the object via kvfree_call_rcu(). In most cases, the sheaves path is expected to succeed and therefore it's unnecessary to introduce additional complexity to the existing kvfree_rcu batching by teaching it how to handle unknown context. Since defer_kfree_rcu() can be called on caches without sheaves, move deferred_work_barrier() and rcu_barrier() outside the branch in kvfree_rcu_barrier_on_cache(). Now that deferred kvfree_rcu objects are submitted to kvfree_call_rcu() after deferred_work_barrier() and may end up in RCU sheaves, deferred_work_barrier() must be invoked before flush_rcu_sheaves_on_cache(). Since the RCU sheaf path has not been used on !KVFREE_RCU_BATCHED kernels, always fall back when kvfree_rcu() is not batched, for consistency. kvfree_rcu_barrier{,_on_cache()}() on !KVFREE_RCU_BATCHED are moved to mm/slab_common.c to invoke deferred_work_barrier() before rcu_barrier().

2026-08-04mm/slab: introduce struct kvfree_rcu_head for kvfree_rcu batchingHarry Yoo (Oracle)
rcu_head is overkill for kvfree_rcu() because the callback function is always either kfree(), vfree(), or free_large_kmalloc(), and thus there is no need for a function pointer. kvfree_rcu batching reuses the field to store the start address of an object, however, this is not strictly needed because we can calculate the start address in the slowpath. For the purpose of kvfree_rcu batching, it is sufficient to implement a linked list using a single pointer. Introduce a new struct called kvfree_rcu_head (the name was suggested by Vlastimil Babka), which is similar to rcu_head but is only a single pointer to build a linked list, without a function pointer, when CONFIG_KVFREE_RCU_BATCHED=y. When kvfree_rcu is not batched, kvfree_rcu_head is the same size as rcu_head. Note that shrinking struct kvfree_rcu_head on CONFIG_KVFREE_RCU_BATCHED=n kernels would inevitably require additional complexity and also some sort of batching (which defeats the purpose of the config option) because it cannot fall back to call_rcu(). For now there are no user-visible changes to the API. k[v]free_rcu() simply casts rcu_head to kvfree_rcu_head. While this does not affect the API, it allows kfree_rcu_nolock() to reuse kvfree_rcu batching as a fallback when trylock or sheaf allocation fails. Stop storing the object pointer in rcu_head.func and instead calculate the object's start address in kvfree_rcu_list(). Factor out the existing logic to calculate the start address from kvfree_rcu_cb() to kvmalloc_obj_start_addr(). To avoid losing the KASAN tag, calculate the offset and subtract it from the address of the kvfree_rcu_head.

2026-08-04memblock: make HugeTLB bootmem allocation work with KHOPratyush Yadav (Google)
Gigantic huge page allocation is somewhat broken currently when KHO is used. Firstly, they break KHO scratch size accounting. RSRV_KERN is used to track how much memory is reserved for use by the kernel. Since hugetlb::alloc_bootmem() calls the memblock_alloc*() APIs, the hugepages allocated also get marked as RSRV_KERN. Allocations marked RSRV_KERN are used by KHO to calculate how much scratch space it should reserve to make sure the next kernel has enough memory to boot when it is in scratch-only phase. Counting hugepages in that blows up scratch size, and can lead to the scratch allocation failing, making KHO unusable. This will show up when huge pages make up more than 50% of the system, which is a fairly common use case. Secondly, while not supported right now, huge pages are user memory and can be preserved via KHO. The scratch spaces should not have any preserved memory. Allocating hugepages from scratch (on a KHO boot) can lead to them being un-preservable. Introduce memblock_alloc_hugetlb(). This lets memblock tailor to the needs of hugetb without exposing those details to the general allocation routines. First, it does not use mirrored memory for hugetlb. Mirrored memory is a limited resource that is best saved for kernel data structures, not user memory. Second, if the free memory area found by memblock_find_in_range_node() is a part of a KHO scratch area, the free area is not used. Allocation is retried starting after the free area to ensure no hugepages come from KHO scratch. Third, it simplifies the argument list by baking in some hugetlb assumptions like alignment and exact_nid. This also simplifies allocation logic in alloc_bootmem(). Also introduce MEMBLOCK_RSRV_HUGETLB to mark reservations made for HugeTLB. This will be used by KHO in future patches to correctly calculate scratch sizes. Refactor some of the preparation logic like kmemleak tracking and accepting memory into a separate helper memblock_prep_allocation(), and use it from both memblock_alloc_hugetlb() and the usual memblock_alloc_range_nid().

2026-08-04mm/mm_init: don't rely on memblock to get KHO scratch migratetypePratyush Yadav (Google)
Currently struct page init via memmap_init() or deferred_init_memmap() only queries the migrate type from KHO for each discrete memory range. That works currently since KHO scratch memory has a different memory type so it is always it its own region. An upcoming patch will add support for discovering blocks of memory with no preservations and it will mark it as MEMBLOCK_KHO_SCRATCH to allow allocations from them. This can lead to the bootmem KHO scratch areas to be merged into larger free ranges. This merging breaks the selection of migrate type. Get rid of memblock_is_kho_scratch_memory(). Instead, use kho_scratch_overlap() to decide the migrate type of the PFN. Since kho_scratch_migratetype() only uses KHO functions, move it to kexec_handover.h. Instead of calling kho_scratch_migratetype() once for each free range, call it once for each pageblock. Update pageblock_migratetype_init_range() and memmap_init_range() to do so. Since the migrate type is now evaluated for each pageblock and not each free range, drop the migratetype arguments to deferred_free_pages() and memmap_init_zone_range() and use MIGRATE_MOVABLE directly.

2026-08-04kho: add callback for table pagesPratyush Yadav (Google)
The KHO memory preservation radix tree does not mark the table pages themselves as preserved. This is done to avoid a circular dependency where preserving a page can lead of allocating other preserved pages. This means any walker looking for free ranges of memory outside of scratch areas will ignore the table Add a table callback that is invoked for each table page. The callback is given the physical address of the table page. This is useful for the upcoming mechanism that discovers blocks of memory with no preserved pages and lets them be used for boot memory. Another use case is for users of the radix tree other than KHO itself. The radix tree does not preserve its own pages due to the circular dependency described above. But external users of the radix tree would need to preserve and restore their pages for the radix tree to survive past early boot. They can use this callback to do so.

An 'F' entry, and every interpreter a 'B' entry binds, holds a file open from registration until the entry goes away, pinning the file, its inode, the mount it came from and that mount's superblock. Nothing bounds how many of those a user namespace can hold. An entry binds at most BINFMT_MISC_INTERP_MAX interpreters, but nothing caps the entries. Charge each binding to the user namespace and uid that makes it against a new UCOUNT_BINFMT_MISC_INTERPRETERS. Going over budget causes -ENOSPC. A per-instance cap would suck. Instances are keyed on the user namespace. So any constant is multiplied by the number of namespaces the caller creates. Creating those is virtually free. A ucount charges the namespace and every one of its ancestors. And a namespace can raise only its own limit. So nesting buys nothing. The knob is /proc/sys/user/max_binfmt_misc_interpreters. Leave it at the max_threads/2 default fork_init() gives a new type. No existing configuration comes close to that. binfmt_misc is tristate, which makes it the first ucount user that can be built as a module. Export inc_ucount() and dec_ucount(); without them CONFIG_BINFMT_MISC=m fails to link. Export them to binfmt_misc alone: charging a ucount type is not something a module has any business doing in general, and the list is trivial to extend if a second user shows up. init_user_ns and init_binfmt_misc are already exported for the same module.

2026-08-03sched_ext: Eject the top rescue consumer on overloadTejun Heo
When rescue demand on a cpu persistently exceeds the configured bandwidth, tasks age on that cpu's rescue DSQ until the stall watchdog fires. The watchdog blames the waiting task's owner, but the misbehaving party is whoever floods the queue, not whoever happens to time out. Track each sched's recent rescue consumption per cpu as a decaying average. Once the oldest waiter on a cpu's rescue DSQ has been queued past a threshold derived from the rescue knobs (4s at the defaults), the rescue timer ejects the sub with the highest recent consumption on that cpu with SCX_EXIT_ERROR_RESCUE. With no recent consumer there is no victim and nothing is ejected - the generic stall watchdog eventually blames the waiter's owner instead. Ejections on a cpu are spaced one threshold apart so the freed bandwidth can drain the backlog before another sub is judged. The overload check only wins the race against the stall watchdog when the watchdog timeout clears the threshold, and a single in-budget wait must not cross the trigger on its own. Warn on a scheduler whose timeout doesn't fit and on knobs whose funding period exceeds half the threshold. v2: - Track kill_at in jiffies_64 - on 32-bit, the time_before() grace check wraps 2^31 ticks after the last ejection and suppresses ejections. (sashiko AI) - Track rescue_avg_at in jiffies_64 likewise - the unsigned long decay delta truncates mod 2^32 on 32-bit and can revive a weeks-old usage average in the victim pick.

2026-08-03sched_ext: Add bandwidth-limited rescue execution for stranded tasksTejun Heo
A local DSQ insert lacking the needed caps is diverted to the reject DSQ and bounced back through ops.enqueue() so the scheduler can re-decide. That recovery assumes the scheduler has somewhere legal to send the task. When it doesn't, e.g. when the task's affinity is restricted to cids delegated away, the task starves until the stall watchdog ejects the scheduler. An exiting task is worse - it skips ops.enqueue() and the rejection becomes a self-requeuing cycle that burns the CPU until the watchdog fires. Add SCX_ENQ_RESCUE, a fallback modifier on local DSQ inserts. When the insert would be rejected for missing caps, the kernel takes over and runs the task on the target CPU without consulting the owning scheduler. The kernel sets the flag itself when enqueueing an exiting task. Rescue is a last-resort forward-progress backstop with a persistent disadvantage, not a way around cap enforcement. A per-CPU token bucket accrues rescue_bandwidth_ppt (default 2%) of CPU time and rescues run one at a time in arrival order. Each is granted a slice of the rescue_quantum_us (default 5ms) quantum divided across the waiters, waits at the tail of the local DSQ claiming no priority, and rejoins its scheduler as a fresh arrival once the slice is served. The schedulers keep their normal control over an admitted rescuee and may preempt or reslice it. Service is measured on CPU time actually received, so neither shortens the rescue. Prolonged denial escalates - the remaining slice turns into protected execution (SCX_TASK_PROTECTED) and the rescuee preempts the current task. Escalation is paced by the same bucket, and delivered service converges on the configured bandwidth no matter how aggressively the schedulers dispatch. Both knobs are root-only and SCX_RESCUE_DISABLE turns rescue off, making SCX_ENQ_RESCUE inserts reject as usual. v2: - Add SCX_OPS_OPEN() fix-ups for the new ops fields so cpu-form schedulers setting them still load on older kernels.

2026-08-03sched_ext: Add SCX_TASK_PROTECTEDTejun Heo
A BPF scheduler can displace any of its tasks at will - cut a running one's slice with an SCX_ENQ_PREEMPT dispatch, an SCX_KICK_PREEMPT kick or a direct shortening, and jump a queued one with HEAD insertions. Sometimes the kernel needs a slice and a DSQ position to stick regardless. Add SCX_TASK_PROTECTED, guarding both: - The slice becomes immutable. Every scheduler-reachable write is refused and counted as SCX_EV_SLICE_DENIED. Higher scheduling classes are unaffected. PREEMPT|IMMED can't preempt a running protected task and gets reenqueued. - A protected task that reached the head of its DSQ keeps it - HEAD insertions land behind the leading run of protected tasks and reenqueue sweeps skip them. Only rq-owned DSQs can hold protected tasks, so the walk runs only for them. The bit lives in p->scx.flags so that both the refusal and the head walk read it under the rq lock that protects it. Protection ends when the slice is consumed, when the task leaves the rq except for a save/restore on the running task, on a yield, when the scheduler enters bypass, and when the task leaves scx. The flag is kernel-internal and not used yet. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Andrea Righi <arighi@nvidia.com>
2026-08-03sched_ext: Synchronize slice and dsq_vtime writesTejun Heo
p->scx.slice and p->scx.dsq_vtime writes have no synchronization rules. The dsq insert kfuncs write both fields synchronously from whatever context they're called in - a direct dispatch from ops.select_cpu() writes with only pi_lock held - and, as the kfuncs are safe to call spuriously with the invalid dispatch discarded later, a scheduler can modify any task's slice by spuriously calling them. The latter stands in the way of an upcoming patch which adds kernel-granted slices that the schedulers must not be able to modify. Give both fields explicit rules. While the task is running, sleeping or queued on an rq-owned DSQ, the rq lock protects them - these are the states where the kernel consumes the slice. While queued on a user DSQ or on the BPF side, the kernel neither consumes nor decides on the fields and every writer acts for the BPF scheduler - synchronizing the writers is the scheduler's responsibility and whichever write lands last wins. To conform, an insert kfunc no longer writes the fields when called. The values travel with the dispatch and take effect when the task is inserted. A discarded dispatch has no side effects. The rq lock rule is asserted at the slice store. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Andrea Righi <arighi@nvidia.com>
2026-08-03kho: make radix max key width more obviousPratyush Yadav (Google)
The KHO radix tree constants are somewhat hard to understand. The tree depth essentially comes from the max key width. The max key width comes from the need to store a 52-bit PFN plus one more bit for the order. All this is very obscure with the corrent code. The PFN width is defined as KHO_ORDER_0_LOG2, which makes very little sense to a new reader not already familiar with what the value means. Then the fact that an extra bit is needed is hidden in the KHO_TREE_MAX_DEPTH calculation. Simplify this by removing KHO_ORDER_0_LOG2 and replace it with KHO_RADIX_KEY_WIDTH. Update the comment to explain why this value is used. This moves the +1 from KHO_TREE_MAX_DEPTH to KHO_RADIX_KEY_WIDTH, making things clearer. Update kho_{encode,decode}_radix_key() to not use KHO_ORDER_0_LOG2. Instead, refactor the code and comments to make it clearer how the encoding and decoding is done. In kho_encode_radix_key(), add a new variable for the shift for physical address. Use that in calculating where the order bit goes and in calculating the shifted PFN. Update comments to make this clearer. In kho_radix_decode_key(), turn order_bit to 0-indexed to simplify the eventual calculation for order. Touch up comments to make the computation clearer.

2026-08-03kho: generalize radix tree APIsPratyush Yadav (Google)
The KHO radix tree is a data structure that can track the presence or absence of an arbitrary key, with nothing inherently tied to KHO memory preservation tracking. This was one of the design goals of the radix tree. This was done to enable it to be re-used by other users of KHO. Despite that, the radix tree APIs are very closely tied to KHO memory preservation tracking. Adding a key is done by kho_radix_add_page(), which encodes it as a page tracking operation and takes in PFN and order. kho_radix_del_page() does the same. These functions encode the key internally that goes into the radix tree. kho_radix_walk_tree() does the same by baking the PFN and order into the callback arguments. Generalize the APIs by taking the key directly and doing the encoding at the callers. Rename the functions to kho_radix_add_key() and kho_radix_del_key(). In practice, this removes a line each from the functions and moves the encoding function call to the callers. Similarly, update kho_radix_tree_walk_callback_t to take the key directly. Now that key encoding is no longer an inherent part of the radix tree and can be decided by the user, rename kho_radix_{encode,decode}_key() to kho_{encode,decode}_radix_key(). This moves them out of the "kho_radix_" name space into the "kho_" namespace. This emphasizes that this is KHO's way of encoding the key for its radix tree.

2026-08-03HID: input: read battery capacity from its actual report offsetJose Villaseñor Montfort
hidinput_query_battery_capacity() assumes the state-of-charge value is the first byte following the report ID (buf[1]) and ignores where the battery field actually sits within the report. An Apple Magic Trackpad 2 precedes the AbsoluteStateOfCharge byte with a byte of status flags in its battery reports, so this query returns the flags byte instead of the charge level. The device happens to make that easy to observe, because it exposes the same cell twice: its report descriptor declares AbsoluteStateOfCharge in two reports (0x90 and 0x9b), so hidinput_setup_battery() registers two power supplies. Only the first one is refreshed by hid-magicmouse -- it uses hid_get_battery(), which returns the first battery of the list -- and that refresh goes through the report event path, which parses the field correctly. Nothing ever reports the second one, so every read of its capacity takes the query path above. On a USB-C Magic Trackpad over USB, on an unpatched 7.1.5: hid-<serial>-battery-144 = 100% (Charging) <- report event path hid-<serial>-battery-155 = 3% (Discharging) <- query path Both are the same physical battery. A raw HIDIOCGINPUT of the two reports at that same moment: report 0x90 -> [90 03 64] report 0x9b -> [9b 03 64 64 00 00 10 00 00 00 00 00 00 00] ^flags ^SoC = 0x64 = 100% The device answers correctly in both cases; only the offset the kernel reads the capacity from is wrong. 0x03 is the flags byte (present, charging), reported as "3%". Bluetooth takes the same query path for its capacity, where the trackpad reported a bogus near-constant ~4% -- 0b100, the FullyCharged flag -- regardless of the real charge. Store the battery field's offset within the report at setup time and use it when querying, so the capacity is read from its real position. The report event path already parses the field correctly through the HID core; only the explicit GET_REPORT query was wrong. Devices whose capacity field is the first field in the report have a report_offset of 0 and are unaffected (buf[1 + 0] == buf[1]).

2026-08-03binfmt_misc: let a 'B' entry bind its interpretersChristian Brauner
A 'B' entry's load program selects its interpreter by absolute path, which open_exec() resolves at exec time in the mount namespace of whoever runs the binary. The handler names an interpreter but does not get to say which file that is. Whoever controls the filesystem view of the exec decides that instead. Static entries settled this long ago with 'F'. The interpreter is opened at registration in the registrant's context and every exec runs a clone of that file. Give a 'B' entry the same, for as many interpreters as it needs. An entry registered with 'D' cannot be matched yet, so it still belongs to whoever is configuring it and can be given interpreters one write at a time: echo ':qemu:B::::qemu_user:D' > register echo '+aarch64 /usr/bin/qemu-aarch64' > qemu echo '+arm /usr/bin/qemu-arm' > qemu echo 1 > qemu Each path is opened by its write, with the credentials the entry file was opened with, by the same helper that opens an 'F' interpreter. The load program picks one per exec with bpf_binprm_select_interp() and the entry hands out a clone of it. Nothing is resolved again, in any namespace. The path is everything past the first space, so no interpreter has to fit in a register string. An entry binds at most a hundred interpreters (BINFMT_MISC_INTERP_MAX). Every binding pins a struct file that no file descriptor accounts for, so RLIMIT_NOFILE does not apply and some cap is needed. A hundred is plenty and raising it later is cheap, lowering it is not. Selection is by name so the register string and the program need not agree on an order, and so the handler is not tied to where a distribution puts its interpreters. A name is a single word of printable ASCII so the entry file can report 'name path' lines. The interpreter runs under the path it was registered under. The entry file reads user memory once. bm_entry_write() copies the write in and dispatches on the first byte, and parse_command() takes the copied buffer. The status file has no binding to spell, so it keeps its own small copy in read_command(). That moves the length cap ahead of the dispatch. A write to an entry file longer than a binding can be is now refused with -E2BIG, and one from a bad address reports -EFAULT, where the command parser used to report -EINVAL for anything past three bytes. Configurations of one instance are kept apart by the lock removal already takes. Reading the set out of the entry file takes no lock. Bindings are rcu-published and the open entry file pins the entry together with everything it bound, so a reader either sees a whole node or misses it. The interpreter is opened before the configuration lock because resolving the path may walk this very filesystem, and only after the command has been parsed and the name validated from the copied buffer, so a write that can never bind opens nothing and the errno reflects the actual failure.
