6 dayslocking/lockdep: add sequence counter to held_lockLiam R. Howlett (Oracle)
Add an 8 bit small sequence counter to the held_lock struct to detect if the lock as been dropped and reacquired. This is useful when a data structure depends on a constant locking context, but is not able to detect locking and unlocking of the lock through its own API. Since the __lock_unpin_lock() will no longer detect underflow by casting the unsigned int to a signed int, update the casting code to use a temp variable for calculations using a signed int.

6 daysmaple_tree: add rcu locking check when LOCKDEP is enabledLiam R. Howlett (Oracle)
Patch series "maple_tree: lock checking and clean ups", v3. In this series: 1. Try to detect lock issues A number of syzbot reports are incorrectly pointing to the mm exit as a source of the locking error. The first three patches attempt to help users detect errors in their locking - but they still have to use LOCKDEP. I guess it's still down to hope and prayers. 2. Documentation fixes The documentation was lacking clarity, there are updates to try and help the users, especially around the erase() cases. 3. Two benign issues The cyclic allocator may have a race, although no in-kernel user can hit it. The erase functions may cause allocation issues if used with the incorrect locking type, but none are present in-tree. 4. The erase gfp uses mas_erase() and mtree_erase() do not take a gfp argument. To improve reliability of the erase, the first attempt to allocate will be GFP_NOWAIT, followed by a retry (if necessary of GFP_KERNEL | GFP_NOFAIL. This will ensure the data is gone. I've updated the documentation to make it more clear as well. mas_store() is not addressed in the same way, but may need to be updated at a later date, but that may require changing callers so it is out of scope here. Beyond these goals there are some test fixes, some general speed-up patches targeting extra work and cycles, and dropping dead code. This patch (of 19): When CONFIG_LOCKDEP and CONFIG_RCU_STRICT_GRACE_PERIOD is enabled, check for rcu locking issues by recording the grace period in the maple state and checking the rcu window is still valid whenever the maple state is reused with a state that is not MA_START or MA_PAUSED.

6 daysmm/memcontrol: avoid false sharing between vmstats and eventsUsama Arif
Moving v1 userspace eventfd handling into memcontrol-v1.c shrank struct vmpressure from 112 to 24 bytes when CONFIG_MEMCG_V1 is disabled. This moved memory_events_local[MEMCG_SWAP_FAIL] and the hot vmstats_percpu pointer onto the same cacheline. The stress-ng mremap stressor exercises MADV_PAGEOUT with swap disabled, generating about 20 million MEMCG_SWAP_FAIL updates per 60-second run on a 176-CPU test system. Those writes bounce the line while memcg statistics paths load vmstats_percpu. Move cgwb_list into the existing alignment gap and cacheline-align vmstats_percpu. This separates the pointer from the event counters without increasing the size of struct mem_cgroup in the tested configuration. The blamed commit reduced median mremap throughput by 4.38% on the test system with one socket. The patched kernel brings the performance to within 0.5% of the parent which is within the observed boot-to-boot spread (up to 1.2%).

6 dayspercpu: drop CONFIG_DEBUG_FORCE_WEAK_PER_CPUTejun Heo
alpha requires percpu variables in modules to be defined as weak so that the compiler generates GOT based external references for them. This puts two extra restrictions on percpu variable definitions. The symbol must be globally unique even when static and a static percpu variable can't be defined inside a function. DEBUG_FORCE_WEAK_PER_CPU exists to give generic code build coverage for these restrictions without building for alpha. MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING defines a static percpu counter at each allocation call site and thus can't be built with weak percpu definitions, so it depends on !DEBUG_FORCE_WEAK_PER_CPU. As allmodconfig enables DEBUG_FORCE_WEAK_PER_CPU, this knocks MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING out of allmodconfig build coverage. allmodconfig coverage for MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING is worth more than build coverage for restrictions which only matter to alpha module builds. Drop DEBUG_FORCE_WEAK_PER_CPU. Restriction violations will now show up only on alpha builds.

6 daysmm/swap: move swap_ops into file systems for file system-based swapChristoph Hellwig
Currently swap to and from file systems goes through two indirect calls between the swap ops and the swap_rw method. Reduce this by directly providing the swap_ops from the file system. For this refactor swap_fs_submit into a swap_fs_prepare_rw helper that initializes the iov_iter on the callers stack so that file systems can call it directly, and use that to initialize file system specific ops in the NFS and SMB clients, which then get passed to swap_fs_activate.

This will be used to remove the double indirection for file system-based swap. There is no functional change, just a move of the declarations. Note that there already is a swapops.h header, which is totally unrelated to struct swap_ops. The close naming is a bit unfortunate, but I could not think of a better name for this header.

Count how many swap I/Os we cause. Due to batching this can be different than the current counter number of pages written/read, and tracking this information is useful to see how efficient the batching is. The counters are added at the end of enum vm_event_item and the vmstat_text array under the assumption that the order of fields in /proc/vmstat is an ABI. If that is not the case, they could be grouped with the other swap counters.

6 daysalloc_tag: add ioctl to /proc/allocinfoSuren Baghdasaryan
Patch series "alloc_tag: introduce IOCTL-based filtering for MAP", v8. Currently, memory allocation profiling data is primarily exposed through /proc/allocinfo. While useful for manual inspection, this text-based interface poses challenges for production monitoring and large-scale analysis: 1. Userspace must parse large amounts of text to extract specific fields. 2. To find specific tags, userspace must read the entire dataset, requiring many context switches and high data copying. 3. The kernel currently aggregates per-CPU counters for every allocation size, even those the user intends to filter out immediately. This series introduces a new IOCTL-based binary interface for allocinfo that supports kernel-side filtering. By allowing the user to specify a filter mask, we significantly reduce the work performed in-kernel and the amount of data transferred to userspace. The IOCTL mechanism was chosen for allocinfo to address the per-CPU counter aggregation bottleneck. A traditional read() operation must report the total allocation count and sizes for every code tag in the system. Doing so requires iterating across all CPUs to sum their per-CPU counters for thousands of tags, which introduces substantial runtime overhead. The IOCTL interface allows userspace to push selective filtering criteria directly into the kernel before the per-CPU counter aggregation. The kernel aggregates per-CPU counters only for a small subset of tags that match the filter. This results in significant performance improvement. Beyond fast filtered retrieval, the IOCTL foundation allows introducing a context capture mechanism in the future to capture the context for specific allocations. Performance measurements were conducted on an Intel Xeon Platinum 8481C (224 CPUs) with caches dropped before each run. The IOCTL mechanism shows a ~20x performance improvement for filtered queries. The kernel avoids the expensive per-CPU counter aggregation (alloc_tag_read) for any tags that fail the initial string or location filters. Scenario 1: Specific File Filtering (arch/x86/events/rapl.c) 1. Traditional (cat /proc/allocinfo | grep): 22ms (sys) 2. IOCTL Interface: 1ms (sys) Scenario 2: Compound Filtering (Filename + Size) 1. Traditional: (cat ... | grep | awk): 21ms (sys) 2. IOCTL Interface: 1ms (sys) Scenario 3: Size-Based Filtering (min_size = 1MB) 1. Traditional: (cat ... | awk): 21ms (sys) 2. IOCTL Interface: 14ms (sys) This patch (of 6): Add the following ioctl commands for /proc/allocinfo file: ALLOCINFO_IOC_CONTENT_ID - gets content identifier which can be used to check whether the file content has changed specifically due to module load/unload. Every time a module is loaded / unloaded, the returned value will be different. By comparing the identifier value at the beginning and at the end of the content retrieval operation, users can validate retrieved information for consistency. ALLOCINFO_IOC_GET_AT - gets the record at the specified position. This is the position of a record in /proc/allocinfo. ALLOCINFO_IOC_GET_NEXT - gets the record next to the last retrieved one. If no records were previously retrieved, returns the first record. Note, function file and module names often have the same prefixes, therefore when filtering for them, we compare the last 64 characters to minimize the chances of name collisions.

6 daysmm/vmalloc: make vm_struct.nr_pages an unsigned longArtem Lytkin
vm_struct::nr_pages is an unsigned int, and the file keeps deriving byte counts from it as nr_pages << PAGE_SHIFT. A shift is evaluated in the type of its promoted left operand, so those are 32-bit arithmetic and wrap at 4 GiB of bytes, which is 2^20 pages. Every site depends on a cast being remembered; vmap() has one, two recent commits did not. vread_iter() then computes a size of zero for a 4 GiB VM_ALLOC area and /proc/kcore returns it as zeros while reporting a successful read, which drgn, crash or gdb cannot tell from real memory, and the vrealloc() grow-in-place check declines a request that would have fit. Widen the field so the class of bug goes away instead of one site at a time. Everything feeding or consuming it widens too: vm_area_alloc_pages() and its accumulators, nr_small_pages, new_nr_pages and old_nr_pages, the index range of vm_area_free_pages(), and three page indexes that were plain int. Five casts go. Two prints needed fixing as well, %u in vmalloc_dump_obj() and %d for the unsigned field in vmalloc_info_show(). No bug report behind this, I found it reading the code. The 4 GiB wrap needs only a machine with over 4 GiB of memory. Neither larger threshold is a practical concern: 2^32 pages, where the field itself truncates, is 16 TiB and beyond what hardware can populate, and 2^31, where the plain int indexes break, is 8 TiB and larger than anything in the tree asks for. The int *nr cursor in the mapping path is unchanged and is separate work. Users outside mm/vmalloc.c need no change either. Those handing the count to a narrower parameter cannot drive it near 2^31, and kho_preserve_vmalloc() stores it into a 32-bit ABI field that still receives the same low bits; above 2^32 pages the truncation just moves out of vm_struct into that store. sizeof(struct vm_struct) on x86-64 stays 72 bytes with CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_VMALLOC=n and goes from 72 to 80 with it enabled, both inside the kmalloc-96 bucket it already comes from.

6 daysmm/gup: factor out LRU cache draining for folio into lru_cache_drain_for_folio()David Hildenbrand (Arm)
KVM with guest_memfd wants to remove any folio references due to LRU caches, as it really must only allow to convert folios from shared to private when there are no unexpected folio references (e.g., from GUP references). So, to drive the refcount down, it needs a way to flush the LRU caches. Let's factor out what we have in lru_cache_drain_for_folio(). Document it, and also mention that concurrent folio (un)mapping might, in theory, miss detecting LRU cache references. Keep obtaining the expected refcount twice to minimize the possibility. For the current and future user that should work, and we don't really have a better alternative: we could detect if the mapcount changed, but it would still be racy and add more complexity with questionable benefit. Maybe there is a chance to avoid the draining entirely in the future, by avoiding extra references from the LRU cache: Hugh thinks there might be a way. But for the time being, this handling is unfortunately required. Make folio_may_be_lru_cached() accept a const pointer so lru_cache_drain_for_folio() can accept a const pointer as well.

6 daysmm/vmscan: reduce lru_lock contention via vmstat-derived scan-balance costUsama Arif
The anon/file scan balance in get_scan_count() is driven by two scalars in struct lruvec, anon_cost and file_cost, accumulated by every reclaim producer under lruvec->lru_lock. The acquisition sites for cost work specifically are: - shrink_inactive_list() re-takes lru_lock at function exit purely to call lru_note_cost_unlock_irq() with (nr_pageout, nr_scanned - nr_reclaimed). One acquisition per inactive shrink. - shrink_active_list() does the same with (0, nr_rotated). One acquisition per active shrink. - workingset_refault() takes the lock via folio_lruvec_lock_irq() purely to record the refault cost. One acquisition per refault. - prepare_scan_control() takes lru_lock just to snapshot the two scalars into sc->{anon,file}_cost. - lru_note_cost_unlock_irq() itself walks parent_lruvec and re-acquires lru_lock on each ancestor to propagate the update, adding O(memcg-depth) acquisitions per producer call. This hurts because lru_lock is already a heavy contention point on memory-heavy workloads: every isolate_lru_folios(), move_folios_to_lru() and folio_add_lru() takes it. The cost work itself is trivial (two scalar bumps and one comparison), but it contends with and causes contention for actual LRU manipulation. The parent_lruvec() walk also multiplies cost-update overhead by memcg hierarchy depth. The balance formula for anon and file, respectively, is this: cost = nr_io * SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX + nr_rotated Instead of recording cost and running averaging logic directly when these events occur, snapshot running vmstat counters once per reclaim cycle and derive the balance from event deltas since the last run. Use PGROTATE_* from the preceding patch for the rotation input. WORKINGSET_RESTORE_* and NR_VMSCAN_WRITE provide the remaining event counters. Charge NR_VMSCAN_WRITE through lruvec stats so all inputs can be sampled per lruvec and aggregated through the memcg hierarchy. This is overall cheaper and has fewer lock acquisition sites. Moving accumulation and decay to the reclaim side also improves the cost model across reclaim gaps. With producer-side decay, events that happen while reclaim is idle still age each other before reclaim ever samples the costs. If a workload refaults a large anon set and then a smaller file set before reclaim runs again, the later file activity can age the earlier anon activity out of the cost model. The new scheme observes the whole between-reclaim delta and decays anon and file proportionally, so the scan-balance history better represents what happened since the last reclaim pass. A dedicated per-lruvec spinlock, cost_lock, serialises the delta extraction, the cost->count update and the halving loop against concurrent reclaimers in the same memcg+node. NR_VMSCAN_WRITE is accounted at writeout(), so reclaim_stat.nr_pageout is no longer needed and is removed. memcg-v1's memory.stat anon_cost/file_cost is now sourced from cost[].count instead of the removed lruvec anon_cost/file_cost fields. The reported values only refresh when prepare_scan_control() runs and are bounded at ~lrusize/4 by the halving loop; the scan-balance signal they express is unchanged. Under pure MGLRU the scan-balance signal itself is not consumed (both prepare_scan_control() and get_scan_count() are short-circuited on the MGLRU paths, and MGLRU's own type/tier selection comes from read_ctrl_pos() on lrugen->{avg_refaulted,avg_total,refaulted,evicted}, not from anon_cost/file_cost). NR_VMSCAN_WRITE naturally covers writeout from either reclaim implementation. The preceding patch also bumps PGROTATE_{ANON,FILE} from evict_folios(), so rotation-driven reclaim work is accounted consistently across both implementations.

6 daysmm/vmscan: add pgrotate_anon and pgrotate_file vmstat countersUsama Arif
Reclaim can spend substantial work on an LRU type without immediately reclaiming or demoting a corresponding amount of memory. Record this work in PGROTATE_ANON and PGROTATE_FILE. For classic LRU reclaim: - Inactive-list reclaim adds nr_scanned - nr_reclaimed to the corresponding anon/file counter when isolation succeeds. - Active-list reclaim adds referenced executable file folios that are retained on the active list to PGROTATE_FILE. Active anon reclaim does not contribute this component. For MGLRU, add the number of initially isolated pages that remain unreclaimed after both the initial and retry passes to the counter for the selected anon/file type. These counters are distinct from the existing pgrotated vm event. pgrotated records an actual move to the inactive-list tail, primarily after reclaim-marked writeback completes or failed invalidation leaves a folio for accelerated reclaim. PGROTATE_ANON and PGROTATE_FILE measure reclaim cost and do not imply that a folio moved to an LRU tail. A subsequent patch will consume these counters for anon/file scan balancing.

6 daysmm/vmstat, mm/memcontrol: add _monotonic vmstat readersUsama Arif
Patch series "mm/vmscan: reduce lru_lock contention via vmstat-derived scan-balance cost", v5. The anon/file scan balance heuristic in get_scan_count() is fed by two scalars in struct lruvec (anon_cost, file_cost) that every reclaim producer updates under lruvec->lru_lock. The cost-recording work itself is trivial, but it both contends for and contributes to contention on lru_lock - which is often a contention point on memory-pressured workloads. Specifically: - shrink_inactive_list() re-acquires lru_lock at function exit just to call lru_note_cost_unlock_irq(). - shrink_active_list() does the same after rotation accounting. - workingset_refault() takes folio_lruvec_lock_irq() purely to record the refault cost. - prepare_scan_control() snapshots anon_cost/file_cost under lru_lock. - lru_note_cost_unlock_irq() itself walks parent_lruvec() and re-acquires lru_lock on every ancestor, multiplying the cost of every update by memcg-hierarchy depth. This series removes those producer-side acquisitions entirely. The rotation inputs become per-LRU PGROTATE_{ANON,FILE} vmstat counters. NR_VMSCAN_WRITE already captures reclaim-driven pageout at writeout(); charge it through lruvec_stat_mod_folio() so it is available per lruvec and aggregated through the memcg hierarchy. Reclaim does not submit filesystem folios for writeback from this path, so pageout contributes only to anon cost. WORKINGSET_RESTORE_* already captures the refault input. PGROTATE_* are also useful independently of scan balancing. They are cumulative base-page events, not unique-page counts. Classic inactive reclaim records scan work that does not produce immediate reclaim or demotion, while active reclaim records referenced executable file folios retained on the active list. MGLRU records initially isolated pages that remain unreclaimed after its retry passes. Read alongside pgscan_* and pgsteal_*, their deltas identify which LRU type is consuming reclaim CPU without producing immediate yield. Unlike the existing pgrotated event, they do not imply a move to the inactive-list tail. prepare_scan_control() reads the raw cost signals without lru_lock: anon = PGROTATE_ANON + (NR_VMSCAN_WRITE + WORKINGSET_RESTORE_ANON) * SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX file = PGROTATE_FILE + WORKINGSET_RESTORE_FILE * SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX It folds the deltas into a per-lruvec accumulator. A dedicated per-lruvec cost_lock, not touched by isolate_lru_folios(), move_folios_to_lru(), or folio_add_lru(), serialises the accumulator RMW and the lrusize/4 halving check. Hierarchy aggregation is implicit in rstat propagation, so the parent_lruvec() walk and the lru_reparent_memcg() cost-splice both disappear. Moving accumulation and decay to the reclaim side also improves the cost model across reclaim gaps. With producer-side decay, events that happen while reclaim is idle still age each other before reclaim ever samples the costs. If a workload refaults a large anon set and then a smaller file set before reclaim runs again, the later file activity can age the earlier anon activity out of the cost model. The new scheme observes the whole between-reclaim delta and decays anon and file proportionally, so the scan-balance history better represents what happened since the last reclaim pass. Trade-offs: - Cost reads see rstat-aggregated values that can lag until periodic / reader-triggered flushing. - Per-lruvec footprint grows by 4 unsigned longs + a spinlock (a struct lru_cost { count, last_rotated, last_io } per side), which is a small cost. - NR_VMSCAN_WRITE now also updates the folio's lruvec/memcg stat, adding memcg stat accounting to the reclaim writeout path while preserving the existing node-level total. == Numbers == Tested on a 176-core, 256 GB host. The benchmark drives sustained swap-out/refault inside a tight memcg using vm-scalability/usemem: usemem -n 16 --prealloc --prefault --random $((256*1024*1024)) run inside a two-level memcg with memory.max=512M on the leaf (4 GB anon working set has to fit in 512 MB -> continuous shrink_inactive_list + workingset_refault). A 16 GB swap file is used. Measurement is a 30 s `perf lock record -a` window over otherwise-idle hardware. Workload rates are identical on both kernels (the bench drives the same memory pressure): baseline patched delta pgscan_direct / s 172,662 171,817 ~0% pgsteal_direct / s 67,162 66,306 ~0% workingset_refault_anon / s 40,696 39,830 ~0% perf lock contention (total wait per 30 s window): Lock Name Before After % change shrink_lruvec+0x770 722.84 ms 0 -100% (eliminated) (= lru_note_cost_unlock_irq) workingset_refault+0x167 385.26 ms 0 -100% (eliminated) (= lru_note_cost_refault) shrink_node+0x4ad 689.43 ms 26.95 ms -96% shrink_active_list 208.34 ms 15.97 ms -92% lru_add_drain_cpu+0x34 1.96 s 917.71 ms -53% Total LRU lock wait ~4.23 s ~1.66 s -61% The two specific contention sites the patch removes (shrink_lruvec+0x770 = lru_note_cost_unlock_irq; workingset_refault+0x167 = lru_note_cost_refault) are completely absent from the patched perf-lock-contention output. Secondary reductions in shrink_node, shrink_active_list, lru_add_drain_cpu and pgrefill/pgactivate look like knock-on effects from removing the cost-recording overhead and the parent_lruvec walk. The remaining ~1.66 s of LRU lock wait on the patched kernel is dominated by the per-CPU pagevec drain (lru_add_drain_cpu) and the main reclaim path in shrink_lruvec. The numbers above can be reproduced using the script in [1]. This patch (of 3): lruvec_page_state(), node_page_state(), and global_node_page_state() all clamp negative reads to zero on CONFIG_SMP so that a transient per-CPU delta skew presents as zero pages rather than as a garbage unsigned value. This is the right behaviour for non-monotonic page-count readers. It is however incorrect for callers that snapshot a monotonically- incremented event counter and compute a delta from two samples. Once the underlying signed long wraps past LONG_MAX, the clamped read drops to zero while the previously-recorded snapshot still holds the pre-wrap value; the unsigned subtraction then underflows into a ~2^31 spurious delta for 32-bit architecture and corrupts the caller's accumulator. Add non-clamping siblings that return the underlying state value cast to unsigned long: global_node_page_state_monotonic() node_page_state_monotonic() lruvec_page_state_monotonic() With both samples read via the _monotonic variant, unsigned modular subtraction stays correct across a signed-long wraparound as long as the true growth between two samples fits in unsigned long (< 2^32 on 32-bit, < 2^64 on 64-bit); the 32-bit bound is the practically-reachable one that motivates this helper. The variants are only safe for monotonically-incremented counters. Non-monotonic page-count readers must keep using the existing clamped helpers so transient negative reads still present as zero. This is a prerequisite for a later patch which replaces the producer-side anon_cost/file_cost accumulators with a read-side accumulator in prepare_scan_control() that samples monotonic per-LRU vmstat counters (PGROTATE_*, NR_VMSCAN_WRITE, WORKINGSET_RESTORE_*) via lruvec_page_state_monotonic() and folds their unsigned modular deltas into lruvec->cost[].count.

6 daysmemcg: move mem_cgroup_swappiness and vm_swappiness to mm/swap.hRidong Chen
Patch series "mm: vmscan: fix node reclaim ignoring swappiness parameter", v4. The per-node proactive reclaim interface (/sys/devices/system/node/nodeX/reclaim) accepts a swappiness parameter, but it is silently ignored when CONFIG_MEMCG is disabled. The root cause is that sc_swappiness() has separate implementations for CONFIG_MEMCG and !CONFIG_MEMCG, and the latter never checks proactive_swappiness. Patch 1 moves mem_cgroup_swappiness() and vm_swappiness out of the public include/linux/swap.h into the mm-private mm/swap.h, and makes the helper handle both CONFIG_MEMCG and !CONFIG_MEMCG in a single inline function. This is a prerequisite for unifying sc_swappiness(). Patch 2 consolidates sc_swappiness() into a single definition that works regardless of CONFIG_MEMCG, fixing the node reclaim swappiness bug. This patch (of 2): The per-memcg swappiness knob is v1-only; v2 always uses global vm_swappiness and ignores the per-cgroup field. Both mem_cgroup_swappiness() and vm_swappiness are only used within mm/ (memcontrol.c, memcontrol-v1.c, vmscan.c), so move them out of the public include/linux/swap.h into the mm-private mm/swap.h. This keeps unrelated declarations out of include/linux/swap.h. Guard memcg->swappiness with CONFIG_MEMCG_V1 as well, so v2-only kernels drop the unused field. No functional change for v1; v2-only kernels drop the unused field.

Update the page_vma_mapped_walk structure to track whether the pgoff being tracked is an anonymous pgoff or not and update the comments to reflect this. This is necessary in order to determine the correct VMA page offset in vma_address_end() when pvmw->nr_pages > 1. Also document that pvmw->pgoff is meaningless for pvmw->nr_pages == 1 and for KSM. Do not set this field where pgoff is not specified. This is laying the groundwork for eventually using anonymous page offsets as the index for all anonymous folios. No functional change intended.

6 daysmm: introduce linear_anon_page_index()Lorenzo Stoakes (ARM)
This function provides the anonymous equivalent of linear_page_index(), instead offsetting based on the anonymous page offset of the VMA. It is valid only for anonymous or MAP_PRIVATE file-backed mappings, in other words CoW mappings. For pure anon VMAs, this will be equal to linear_page_index(). Assert that both of these invariants are true in linear_anon_page_index() and implement the algorithm in __linear_anon_page_index(). Note that MAP_PRIVATE-/dev/zero mappings will satisfy vma_is_anonymous() but not fulfill this invariant, so when asserting this we check vma->vm_file to account for this. We do not update callsites yet, so no functional change intended. Also const-ify vma_is_anonymous() to make it compatible with the const-ified linear_anon_page_index(). While we're here, update linear_page_index() to be more succinct. VMA userland tests are also updated accordingly.

Therefore, provide a helper - vma_is_cow_mapping() to directly test the VMA. Additionally provide a new helper vma_flags_is_cow_mapping() which performs the check using the new vma_flags_t type, and share this logic between vma_is_cow_mapping() and vma_desc_is_cow_mapping().

6 daysmm/vma: introduce VMA anon page offset field and add helpersLorenzo Stoakes (ARM)
Patch series "mm/rmap: index MAP_PRIVATE file-backed folios by anonymous pgoff", v5. In memory management we've managed to manufacture a great deal of confusion around the concept of anonymous memory. We have: 1. 'Pure anon' memory - anonymous VMAs whose folios are anonymous and swap-backed (thus for reclaim purposes, treated as anonymous). These are simple enough. 2. shmem - file-backed VMAs, file-backed folios (from rmap perspective) so present in the page cache and mapped by an address_space object, but whose folios are also swap-backed (thus treated as anonymous for reclaim purposes). 3. MAP_PRIVATE-mapped /dev/zero - a strange beast whose VMAs have vma->vm_file set, but which clears vma->vm_ops to satisfy vma_is_anonymous(), resulting in VMAs that were mmap()'d referencing a file, but are in every other sense anonymous, including the folios. 4. Other MAP_PRIVATE-file backed mappings - These possess file-backed VMAs and have file-backed folios until CoW'd, at which point those CoW'd folios are anonymous. This series fixes issue 3. In order for us to traverse VMAs using the reverse mapping, we require two fields - folio->mapping and folio->index. The first tells the rmap code where to look for VMAs, and the second tells it at which offset the folio starts within the referenced object. For anonymous folios, folio->mapping points at an anon_vma object. For file-backed folios, it points at an address_space. And: * For file-backed folios folio->index is simply the page offset of the start of the folio within the file. * For anonymous folios belonging to pure anon mappings, folio->index is equal to the anonymous page offset of the folio. * For anonymous folios belonging to file-backed mappings (i.e. CoW'd folios of a MAP_PRIVATE file-backed mapping), folio->index is equal to the file page offset. This series establishes a new anonymous page offset property of VMAs to allow us to map anonymous folios at their anonymous page offset, consistent with pure anon. The purpose of doing so is to lay the foundations for the scalable CoW work. This is necessary because scalable CoW looks in the maple tree for the VMA located at folio->index << PAGE_SHIFT, before falling back to looking up tracked remaps if necessary. The MAP_PRIVATE file-backed case means that folio indices will very often conflict with one another and this remap tracking becomes substantially more contended, and of course the fast path can never be used. This also makes it possible, in future, to unshare anonymously mapped folios with deep fork hierarchies on remap, eliminating the need for remap tracking in the vast majority of cases. Similar to page offset of pure anonymous VMAs, we update the anonymous page offset of unfaulted file-backed VMAs on remap, but do not once CoW'd (i.e. vma->anon_vma is non-NULL). Overall, there is little impact on mergeability, which remains exactly the same for pure anonymous and shared file-backed mappings, with the only impact being on MAP_PRIVATE-mapped file-backed mappings, which must now match on anonymous page offset as well as file page offset to be merged. To fail to merge like this would require CoW'ing the mapping, then finding another VMA with identical file and compatible page offset to remap next to. This is therefore very much an edge case that should have very little impact (and which scalable CoW may very well address in any case). This patch (of 16): Establish fields in vm_area_struct to store the anonymous page offset of VMAs. Initially, the anonymous page offset of a VMA is vma->vm_start >> PAGE_SHIFT. When a VMA is remapped to new_address its anonymous page offset is either updated to new_address >> PAGE_SHIFT if unfaulted or, if faulted, remains equal to the anonymous page offset it had when first faulted. Currently, anonymous folios belonging to CoW'd MAP_PRIVATE-mapped file-backed VMAs are tracked by their file offsets. By adding anonymous offset as a property of VMAs, we can now track them by their anonymous page offset instead. By tracking this, we provide the means by which to eliminate this inconsistency, and more importantly lay the foundations for future work for the scalable CoW anonymous rmap rework. This patch simply adds the fields and some simple helpers. Subsequent patches will update mm code to make use of these fields correctly. The fields chosen are packed in the VMA such that, for 64-bit kernel builds, no additional space is taken up. The first field is present on cacheline 0 containing key VMA fields, and the second on cacheline 3, which contains file-backed reverse mapping fields. Given the relative time spent accessing reverse mapping fields as well as updating them, there shouldn't be any performance impact here from false sharing. Update the VMA userland tests to account for this change. No callsites are updated yet, so no functional change intended.

7 daysxsk: honor XDP_TX_METADATA in zero-copy pathStanislav Fomichev
The zero-copy path reads TX metadata whenever the UMEM has metadata space, even if the descriptor does not set XDP_TX_METADATA. Pass descriptor options through the metadata helpers and ignore metadata unless the option is set. This does not fix the existing per-WQE metadata handling for mlx5 MPWQEs. Only the descriptor that starts a session passes through xsk_tx_metadata_request() and configures offload state shared by the batch. Metadata on descriptors joining an open session is therefore not validated and does not configure its requested offloads. In addition, a non-NULL metadata pointer from such a descriptor is treated as a timestamp completion request even when XDP_TXMD_FLAGS_TIMESTAMP is not set, so its metadata union can be overwritten with an unrequested timestamp. Fixing mixed metadata states within one MPWQE requires a separate change.

7 daysxsk: align TX metadata layout across ABIsStanislav Fomichev
Add explicit padding before launch_time so xsk_tx_metadata has the same layout on 32-bit and 64-bit systems. On several architectures (csky, i386, nios2, m65k, openrisc, sh), the old native 32-bit layout put launch_time at offset 12 and had a natural size of 20 bytes. Using sizeof(struct xsk_tx_metadata) as tx_metadata_len was already rejected because the length must be a multiple of eight, so the straightforward use of the interface was broken on those ABIs. Userspace could still register a padded length of 24 bytes, though; mixing the old and new layouts then silently reads launch_time from the wrong offset and misprograms packet launch times. This intentionally replaces that incompatible layout because the affected architectures are unlikely to have any notable users. (x86_64 and arm64 have the most users and are _not_ affected) Fixes: ca4419f15abd ("xsk: Add launch time hardware offload support to XDP Tx metadata") Reviewed-by: Simon Horman <horms@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Stanislav Fomichev <sdf@fomichev.me> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260819160535.1472459-2-sdf@fomichev.me Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>

7 daysBluetooth: mgmt: fix 'hdev->discovery.uuids' NULL dereferencePavel Shpakovskiy
'uuid_count' member of struct 'discovery_state' is assigned and read without any locks, so there is a chance of situation when uuid_count != 0, but uuids is NULL and there will be NULL pointer dereference. Possible race: 'hci_update_passive_scan_sync' 'hci_discovery_filter_clear' hdev->discovery.uuid_count = 0; <----------------------preempted-----------------------------> 'start_service_discovery' // Set uuid_count to value != 0 hdev->discovery.uuid_count = uuid_count; hdev->discovery.uuids = kmemdup(...); <----------------------preempted-----------------------------> spin_lock(&hdev->discovery.lock); kfree(hdev->discovery.uuids); hdev->discovery.uuids = NULL; spin_unlock(&hdev->discovery.lock); Now uuids == NULL and uuid_count != 0. So 'mgmt_device_found' -> 'is_filter_match' -> 'eir_has_uuids' receives non consistent discovery state, where NULL dereference of uuids happens. To fix it let's add discovery.lock around every read/write of uuid_count, uuids pair of struct members. It is also important to assign uuid_count value only after success kmemdup() allocation in start_service_discovery(), otherwise uuids is NULL, because kmemdup failed, but uuid_count is already assigned to non zero value.

Merge series "mm/slab: introduce kfree_rcu_nolock() and improve slub_kunit coverage" from Harry Yoo. From the cover letter [1]: This series improves kmalloc_nolock() and kfree_nolock() coverage in slub_kunit and introduces kfree_rcu_nolock() for unknown context as suggested by Alexei Starovoitov. Unknown context means the caller does not know whether spinning on a lock is safe (e.g., a BPF program attached to an arbitrary kernel function or in NMI context). The slab allocator already supports unknown context via kmalloc_nolock() and kfree_nolock(), but te slab allocator does not support freeing objects by RCU in unknown context. It is not ideal to have completely separate batching for unknown context because the worst scenario where spinning on a lock would lead to deadlock is very rare, and in most cases, it is safe to use the existing mechanism (kfree_rcu_sheaf()). Since most part of the slab allocator already supports unknown context and sheaves support batching kvfree_rcu() calls for slab objects, implement kfree_rcu_nolock() with minimal changes by teaching kfree_rcu_sheaf() how to support unknown context and making it a little bit harder to allocate an empty sheaf, instead of making intrusive changes to the existing kvfree_rcu batching logic. kfree_rcu_nolock() tries to free the object to the rcu sheaf if trylock succeeds. Once the rcu sheaf becomes full, it is submitted to RCU via call_rcu() if spinning is allowed or IRQs are enabled (to avoid calling call_rcu() in the middle of call_rcu()). Otherwise, call_rcu() is deferred via irq work. When there is no sheaf available, kfree_rcu_sheaf() falls back to defer_kfree_rcu(). It submits the object to kvfree_rcu batching via irq work. To do this, patch 6 converts kvfree_rcu to use kvfree_rcu_head without visible changes to the API for now. Unlike kfree_rcu(), only the 2-argument variant is supported. This is because the last resort of the 1-arg variant is synchronize_rcu(), which cannot be used in an unknown context. As suggested by Alexei Starovoitov, kfree_rcu_nolock() can be used with struct kvfree_rcu_head (8 bytes), which is smaller than struct rcu_head (16 bytes).

7 dayslocking: Revert switching guards to _irq_{disable,enable}()Peter Zijlstra
Revert commit 1b0866874833 ("locking: Switch to _irq_{disable,enable}() variants in cleanup guards"). While the guards are properly nested, not all wrapped code is nice, as already highlighted by that fair.c hunk. Syzbot found another instance of this pattern in posix_timer_delete(), which does spin_unlock_irq()+spin_lock_irq() inside scoped_guard(spinlock_irq). Combined with this patch, that goes sideways most spectacular. Undo this until we've developed stronger tools / debug for such issues.

8 daysclocksource: hyper-v: Remove support for stimer interrupts in message modeMichael Kelley
In Hyper-V versions prior to WS2016/Win10, Hyper-V synthetic timers interrupt the guest by delivering a message that is initially handled by the Linux VMBus driver. Starting with WS2016/Win10, Hyper-V can deliver stimer interrupts directly to an assigned interrupt vector without involving the VMBus driver. This is called "Direct Mode". With the overall removal of Linux support for running on Hyper-V hosts earlier than WS2016 and Windows 10, it's no longer necessary to support the legacy message-based delivery. Remove that delivery mechanism and always use Direct Mode. If for some reason, the Hyper-V host does not enumerate Direct Mode, output an error message but continue to run using the LAPIC timer instead of an stimer. With these changes, the VMBus driver no longer calls the stimer interrupt service routine. This removal has a broader benefit in unblocking the disentangling of VMBus code and stimer code, as they should be independent of each other. The final disentangling will come as a follow-on patch set. Signed-off-by: Michael Kelley <mhklinux@outlook.com> Signed-off-by: Wei Liu <wei.liu@kernel.org>
