2025-11-12taint/module: remove unnecessary taint_flag.module fieldPetr Pavlu
The TAINT_RANDSTRUCT and TAINT_FWCTL flags are mistakenly set in the taint_flags table as per-module flags. While this can be trivially corrected, the issue can be avoided altogether by removing the taint_flag.module field. This is possible because, since commit 7fd8329ba502 ("taint/module: Clean up global and module taint flags handling") in 2016, the handling of module taint flags has been fully generic. Specifically, module_flags_taint() can print all flags, and the required output buffer size is properly defined in terms of TAINT_FLAGS_COUNT. The actual per-module flags are always those added to module.taints by calls to add_taint_module().

The generic crashkernel reservation adds the crashkernel memory range to /proc/iomem during early initialization. Later, all memblock ranges are added to /proc/iomem as System RAM. If the crashkernel region overlaps with any memblock range, it causes a conflict while adding those memblock regions as iomem resources, triggering the above warning. The conflicting memblock regions are then omitted from /proc/iomem. For example, if the following crashkernel region is added to /proc/iomem: 20000000-11fffffff : Crash kernel then the following memblock regions System RAM regions fail to be inserted: 00000000-7fffffff : System RAM 80000000-257fffffff : System RAM Fix this by not adding the crashkernel memory to /proc/iomem on powerpc. Introduce an architecture hook to let each architecture decide whether to export the crashkernel region to /proc/iomem. For more info checkout commit c40dd2f766440 ("powerpc: Add System RAM to /proc/iomem") and commit bce074bdbc36 ("powerpc: insert System RAM resource to prevent crashkernel conflict") Note: Before switching to the generic crashkernel reservation, powerpc never exported the crashkernel region to /proc/iomem.

2025-11-12sched_ext: Hook up hardlockup detectorTejun Heo
A poorly behaving BPF scheduler can trigger hard lockup. For example, on a large system with many tasks pinned to different subsets of CPUs, if the BPF scheduler puts all tasks in a single DSQ and lets all CPUs at it, the DSQ lock can be contended to the point where hardlockup triggers. Unfortunately, hardlockup can be the first signal out of such situations, thus requiring hardlockup handling. Hook scx_hardlockup() into the hardlockup detector to try kicking out the current scheduler in an attempt to recover the system to a good state. The handling strategy can delay watchdog taking its own action by one polling period; however, given that the only remediation for hardlockup is crash, this is likely an acceptable trade-off. v2: Add missing dummy scx_hardlockup() definition for !CONFIG_SCHED_CLASS_EXT (kernel test bot).

2025-11-12sched_ext: Use per-CPU DSQs instead of per-node global DSQs in bypass modeTejun Heo
Bypass mode routes tasks through fallback dispatch queues. Originally a single global DSQ, b7b3b2dbae73 ("sched_ext: Split the global DSQ per NUMA node") changed this to per-node DSQs to resolve NUMA-related livelocks. Dan Schatzberg found per-node DSQs can still livelock when many threads are pinned to different small CPU subsets: each CPU must scan many incompatible tasks to find runnable ones, causing severe contention with high CPU counts. Switch to per-CPU bypass DSQs. Each task queues on its current CPU. Default idle CPU selection and direct dispatch handle most cases well. This introduces a failure mode when tasks concentrate on one CPU in over-saturated systems. If the BPF scheduler severely skews placement before triggering bypass, that CPU's queue may be too long to drain, causing RCU stalls. A load balancer in a future patch will address this. The bypass DSQ is separate from local DSQ to enable load balancing: local DSQs use rq locks, preventing efficient scanning and transfer across CPUs, especially problematic when systems are already contended. v2: Clarified why bypass DSQ is separate from local DSQ (Andrea Righi).

2025-11-12sched_ext: Use shorter slice in bypass modeTejun Heo
There have been reported cases of bypass mode not making forward progress fast enough. The 20ms default slice is unnecessarily long for bypass mode where the primary goal is ensuring all tasks can make forward progress. Introduce SCX_SLICE_BYPASS set to 5ms and make the scheduler automatically switch to it when entering bypass mode. Also make the bypass slice value tunable through the slice_bypass_us module parameter (adjustable between 100us and 100ms) to make it easier to test whether slice durations are a factor in problem cases. v3: Use READ_ONCE/WRITE_ONCE for scx_slice_dfl access (Dan). v2: Removed slice_dfl_us module parameter.

The fw_attributes_class provides a much cleaner interface to all of the attributes introduced to asus-wmi. This patch moves all of these extra attributes over to fw_attributes_class, and shifts the bulk of these definitions to a new kernel module to reduce the clutter of asus-wmi with the intention of deprecating the asus-wmi attributes in future. The work applies only to WMI methods which don't have a clearly defined place within the sysfs and as a result ended up lumped together in /sys/devices/platform/asus-nb-wmi/ with no standard API. Where possible the fw attrs now implement defaults, min, max, scalar, choices, etc. As en example dgpu_disable becomes: /sys/class/firmware-attributes/asus-armoury/attributes/dgpu_disable/ ├── current_value ├── display_name ├── possible_values └── type as do other attributes.

2025-11-12fs: speed up path lookup with cheaper handling of MAY_EXECMateusz Guzik
The generic inode_permission() routine does work which is known to be of no significance for lookup. There are checks for MAY_WRITE, while the requested permission is MAY_EXEC. Additionally devcgroup_inode_permission() is called to check for devices, but it is an invariant the inode is a directory. Absent a ->permission func, execution lands in generic_permission() which checks upfront if the requested permission is granted for everyone. We can elide the branches which are guaranteed to be false and cut straight to the check if everyone happens to be allowed MAY_EXEC on the inode (which holds true most of the time). Moreover, filesystems which provide their own ->permission routine can take advantage of the optimization by setting the IOP_FASTPERM_MAY_EXEC flag on their inodes, which they can legitimately do if their MAY_EXEC handling matches generic_permission(). As a simple benchmark, as part of compilation gcc issues access(2) on numerous long paths, for example /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/12/crtendS.o Issuing access(2) on it in a loop on ext4 on Sapphire Rapids (ops/s): before: 3797556 after: 3987789 (+5%) Note: this depends on the not-yet-landed ext4 patch to mark inodes with cache_no_acl() Signed-off-by: Mateusz Guzik <mjguzik@gmail.com> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20251107142149.989998-2-mjguzik@gmail.com Reviewed-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Christian Brauner <brauner@kernel.org>

2025-11-12iomap: optimize pending async writeback accountingJoanne Koong
Pending writebacks must be accounted for to determine when all requests have completed and writeback on the folio should be ended. Currently this is done by atomically incrementing ifs->write_bytes_pending for every range to be written back. Instead, the number of atomic operations can be minimized by setting ifs->write_bytes_pending to the folio size, internally tracking how many bytes are written back asynchronously, and then after sending off all the requests, decrementing ifs->write_bytes_pending by the number of bytes not written back asynchronously. Now, for N ranges written back, only N + 2 atomic operations are required instead of 2N + 2.

2025-11-11efi/runtime-wrappers: Keep track of the efi_runtime_lock ownerArd Biesheuvel
The EFI runtime wrappers use a file local semaphore to serialize access to the EFI runtime services. This means that any calls to the arch wrappers around the runtime services will also be serialized, removing the need for redundant locking. For robustness, add a facility that allows those arch wrappers to assert that the semaphore was taken by the current task.

2025-11-11mlx5: Fix default values in create CQAkiva Goldberger
Currently, CQs without a completion function are assigned the mlx5_add_cq_to_tasklet function by default. This is problematic since only user CQs created through the mlx5_ib driver are intended to use this function. Additionally, all CQs that will use doorbells instead of polling for completions must call mlx5_cq_arm. However, the default CQ creation flow leaves a valid value in the CQ's arm_db field, allowing FW to send interrupts to polling-only CQs in certain corner cases. These two factors would allow a polling-only kernel CQ to be triggered by an EQ interrupt and call a completion function intended only for user CQs, causing a null pointer exception. Some areas in the driver have prevented this issue with one-off fixes but did not address the root cause. This patch fixes the described issue by adding defaults to the create CQ flow. It adds a default dummy completion function to protect against null pointer exceptions, and it sets an invalid command sequence number by default in kernel CQs to prevent the FW from sending an interrupt to the CQ until it is armed. User CQs are responsible for their own initialization values. Callers of mlx5_core_create_cq are responsible for changing the completion function and arming the CQ per their needs.

2025-11-11sched/deadline: Fix dl_server stop conditionPeter Zijlstra
Gabriel reported that the dl_server doesn't stop as expected. The problem was found to be the fact that idle time and fair runtime are treated equally. Both will count towards dl_server runtime and push the activation forwards when it is in the zero-laxity wait state. Notably: dl_server_update_idle() update_curr_dl_se() if (dl_defer && dl_throttled && dl_runtime_exceeded()) hrtimer_try_to_cancel(); // stop timer replenish_dl_new_period() deadline = now + dl_deadline; // fwd period runtime = dl_runtime; start_dl_timer(); // restart timer And while we do want idle time accounted towards the *current* activation of the dl_server -- after all, a fair task could've ran if we had any -- we don't necessarily want idle time to cause or push forward an activation. Introduce dl_defer_idle to make this distinction. It will be set once idle time pushed the activation forward, once set idle time will only be allowed to consume any runtime but not push the activation. This will then cause dl_server_timer() to fire, which will stop the dl_server. Any non-idle time accounting during this phase will clear dl_defer_idle, so only a full period of idle will cause the dl_server to stop.

2025-11-11fs: move inode fields used during fast path lookup closer togetherMateusz Guzik
This should avoid *some* cache misses. Successful path lookup is guaranteed to load at least ->i_mode, ->i_opflags and ->i_acl. At the same time the common case will avoid looking at more fields. struct inode is not guaranteed to have any particular alignment, notably ext4 has it only aligned to 8 bytes meaning nearby fields might happen to be on the same or only adjacent cache lines depending on luck (or no luck). According to pahole: umode_t i_mode; /* 0 2 */ short unsigned int i_opflags; /* 2 2 */ kuid_t i_uid; /* 4 4 */ kgid_t i_gid; /* 8 4 */ unsigned int i_flags; /* 12 4 */ struct posix_acl * i_acl; /* 16 8 */ struct posix_acl * i_default_acl; /* 24 8 */ ->i_acl is unnecessarily separated by 8 bytes from the other fields. With struct inode being offset 48 bytes into the cacheline this means an avoidable miss. Note it will still be there for the 56 byte case. New layout: umode_t i_mode; /* 0 2 */ short unsigned int i_opflags; /* 2 2 */ unsigned int i_flags; /* 4 4 */ struct posix_acl * i_acl; /* 8 8 */ struct posix_acl * i_default_acl; /* 16 8 */ kuid_t i_uid; /* 24 4 */ kgid_t i_gid; /* 28 4 */ I verified with pahole there are no size or hole changes. This is stopgap until someone(tm) sanitizes the layout in the first place, allocation methods aside.
