2026-08-04mm/damon/core: introduce damon_probe->weightSJ Park
Patch series "mm/damon: introduce data attributes only monitoring". TL;DR: Introduce a way to get DAMON's best effort accuracy monitoring of user-demanding non-access data attributes. Background ========== DAMON was initially designed for only access monitoring. It turned out users want to get the information together with more data attributes. For example, some users want to know how much of a hot memory region belongs to huge pages or specific cgroups. Page level properties based monitoring was introduced with commit 626ffabe67c2 ("mm/damon: clarify trying vs applying on damos_stat kernel-doc comment") to fill the gap. Because it works only at snapshot level and snapshot capturing in the mode can induce high overhead, commit 45c49d9fd608 ("mm/damon/core: introduce struct damon_probe") introduced data attributes monitoring. Data attributes monitoring treats the attributes as only additional and subordinate information. Data access monitoring is always turned on, and regions are adjusted for best accuracy of the access information. In some cases, users may be primarily interested in the attributes more than the access. They might even not care about the access information at all. Because DAMON treats data accesses as the only primary information, such users cannot get high quality attributes information. Design and Implementation ========================= Introduce another way for treating data attributes as the primary information. Add 'weight' property to each data attribute probe. When any of the weights are set, the mode is enabled. Data access monitoring is completely turned off in the mode. For region adjustment, the weighted sum of probe hit counters is used instead of the nr_accesses. Using the weights, users can specify to what attributes they are interested in to what degree. DAMON will adjust the regions and provide the best-effort quality monitoring that is optimized for the user demands. Extend damon_operations for efficient use of probe hits. Update regions merge and kdamond main logic to support the new mode. Add a new struct field and a sysfs file for API callers and ABI users, respectively. Test ==== On ~7 GiB memory idle system, run a simple AI-assisted program. The program allocates and faults 2 GiB anonymous pages. Then, it does nothing but wait until the user terminates it. Hence, the system ~2 GiB of anonymous pages with no active accesses. Monitor the distribution of the anonymous pages using DAMON attributes monitoring mode, using DAMON user-space tool, damo [1]. $ sudo ./damo start --probe_filter allow anon $ sudo ./damo report access --dont_merge_regions heatmap: 00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000399999995111111146666666666666666 # min/max temperatures: -2,470,000,000, -1,620,000,000, column size: 99.800 MiB intervals: sample 5 ms aggr 100 ms (max access hz 200) # <start> <size> <freq> <age> <probe hits> 0 4.000 KiB 79.840 MiB 0 hz 24.700 s 2 1 79.844 MiB 718.562 MiB 0 hz 24.700 s 8 2 798.406 MiB 793.148 MiB 0 hz 24.700 s 7 3 1.554 GiB 797.828 MiB 0 hz 24.700 s 7 4 2.333 GiB 794.668 MiB 0 hz 24.600 s 8 5 3.109 GiB 791.117 MiB 0 hz 24.500 s 0 6 3.882 GiB 785.312 MiB 0 hz 24 s 2 7 4.649 GiB 787.867 MiB 0 hz 16.200 s 6 8 5.418 GiB 784.477 MiB 0 hz 23.300 s 6 9 6.184 GiB 783.820 MiB 0 hz 18.200 s 9 10 6.950 GiB 797.730 MiB 0 hz 18.900 s 7 11 7.729 GiB 69.625 MiB 0 hz 18.900 s 0 memory bw estimate: 0 B per second total size: 7.797 GiB record DAMON intervals: sample 5 ms, aggr 100 ms Note that the line after the line starting with "intervals:" is not provided by the current version of 'damo'. I manually added the legends line for easier understanding of these results. Each of the 12 lines after the legend line shows the DAMON-found regions. Each line shows 1) index of the region, 2) start address of the region, 3) size of the region, 4) access frequency of the region, 5) age (how long the access frequency on the region was kept) of the region, and finally 6) the probe hit count. Because data access is the primary information that adjusts region for, and there is only nearly zero access on the system, regions are naively adjusted with the same size. Still <probe hits> show different distribution of the anonymous pages, but it is obviously very rough information. Switch to the attributes only mode and show how it changes the picture: $ sudo ./damo tune --probe_filter allow anon --probe_weight 100 $ sudo ./damo report access --dont_merge_regions heatmap: 88888888888888888889888999999889999999000004888888888888889999988888898888888888 # min/max temperatures: -4,430,000,000, 0, column size: 99.800 MiB intervals: sample 5 ms aggr 100 ms (max access hz 200) # <start> <size> <freq> <age> <probe hits> 0 4.000 KiB 60.445 MiB 0 hz 700 ms 0 1 60.449 MiB 1.363 MiB 0 hz 600 ms 18 2 61.812 MiB 144.000 KiB 0 hz 0 ns 1 3 61.953 MiB 1.922 MiB 0 hz 2.400 s 19 4 63.875 MiB 12.133 MiB 0 hz 200 ms 0 [...] 500 5.132 GiB 8.000 KiB 0 hz 2 m 15.800 s 20 501 5.132 GiB 8.000 KiB 0 hz 2 m 16.200 s 0 502 5.132 GiB 16.000 KiB 0 hz 2 m 16.900 s 20 503 5.132 GiB 24.000 KiB 0 hz 2 m 14.200 s 0 504 5.132 GiB 8.000 KiB 0 hz 2 m 14.900 s 20 [...] 923 7.534 GiB 126.637 MiB 0 hz 0 ns 6 924 7.658 GiB 252.000 KiB 0 hz 54.800 s 20 925 7.658 GiB 142.242 MiB 0 hz 300 ms 0 memory bw estimate: 0 B per second total size: 7.797 GiB record DAMON intervals: sample 5 ms, aggr 100 ms As expected, regions are adjusted to provide the best accurate picture for the anonymous pages distribution (<probe hits>). The region 0 (60.445 MiB memory from the address 4.000 KiB) has nearly zero anonymous pages. The region 1 (1.363 MiB memory from the address 60.449 MiB) is nearly full with anonymous pages. Region 500 (8 KiB memory from the address 5.132 GiB) is certainly two anonymous pages. Future Work =========== Attributes only monitoring disables access monitoring. We will enable that in future, by extending the supported attributes to include data accesses. This patch series, and the future work are parts of the ongoing project [2] for extending DAMON. The project aims to extend DAMON with primitives other than page table accessed bits such as AMD IBS, Intel PEBS, and Arm SPE, to provide more powerful and detailed information like per-CPUs/threads/reads/writes monitoring. Patches Sequence ================ Patch 1 introduces damon_probe->weight for specifying the weights of each attribute. Patches 2-6 extends apply_probe() damon_ops callback to efficiently support the new mode. Patch 7 fixes wrong use of abs() in the regions merge code. Patch 8 extends regions merge function to work with probe hits in the mode. Patch 8 also introduces the function for detecting the mode enablement but always returns false, for safe and incremental changes. Patches 9 and 10 adds user parameters validation to prevent theoretical overflow of probe hits and the weighted sum. Patches 11-14 incrementally update kdamond_fn() to support the mode. Patch 15 completes the mode detection function implementation, so that the new mode really works. Patch 16 introduces a new sysfs file for ABI users. Finally, patches 17-19 respectively updates design, usage and ABI documents for the new feature and interfaces.

2026-08-04mm: provide free_reserved_pages(), removing x86 variantDavid Hildenbrand (Arm)
Let's extend free_reserved_page() in page_alloc.c to free_reserved_pages(), dropping the custom x86 variant. The common-code variant will consume an order, so adjust the x86 callers accordingly. Make free_reserved_pages() assume that we are freeing ordinary high-order pages, just with the special "reserved" flavor. The target use case for now is freeing vmemmap PMD pages. Set the refcount directly to 0 (instead of 1) and call __free_frozen_pages(). Set the page count to 0 before clearing PG_reserved, so someone checking PG_reserved (and not finding it set) to then try grabbing a ref would not suddenly have that ref be dropped. That is arguably cleaner and safer than the old way of doing it. Add some kerneldoc. Use a single adjust_managed_page_count() call.

2026-08-04userfaultfd: add UFFDIO_SET_MODE for runtime sync/async toggleKiryl Shutsemau (Meta)
Add an ioctl to toggle async mode at runtime without re-registering the userfaultfd. This allows a VMM to switch between sync and async RWP modes on-the-fly -- for example, starting in async mode for working set scanning, then switching to sync mode to intercept faults during page eviction. UFFDIO_SET_MODE takes an enable/disable bitmask of UFFD_FEATURE_* flags. Only UFFD_FEATURE_RWP_ASYNC is toggleable today; the ioctl rejects any other bit with -EINVAL. Enabling RWP_ASYNC also requires RWP to have been negotiated at UFFDIO_API time, mirroring the UFFDIO_API invariant. Fault-path readers of ctx->features run under mmap_read_lock or a per-VMA lock; the RMW takes mmap_write_lock and calls vma_start_write() on every UFFD-armed VMA, so those readers are fully excluded. userfaultfd_show_fdinfo(), however, reads ctx->features without any lock, so the RMW is written as a single WRITE_ONCE and fdinfo reads it with READ_ONCE. That keeps the lockless observer from seeing a mid-RMW intermediate and removes the audit burden when new toggleable bits are added later. When switching to async, pending sync waiters are woken so they retry and auto-resolve under the new mode.

2026-08-04userfaultfd: add UFFD_FEATURE_RWP_ASYNC for async fault resolutionKiryl Shutsemau (Meta)
Sync RWP delivers a message and blocks the faulting thread until the handler resolves the fault. For working-set tracking the VMM does not need the message: it just needs to know, at scan time, which pages were touched. Async RWP serves that use case — the kernel restores access in-place and the faulting thread continues without blocking. The VMM reconstructs the access pattern after the fact via PAGEMAP_SCAN: pages whose uffd bit is still set (inverted PAGE_IS_ACCESSED) were not re-accessed since the last RWP cycle. Worth calling out: async resolution upgrades writable private anon PTEs via pte_mkwrite() when can_change_pte_writable() allows, mirroring do_numa_page(). Without it, every re-access of an RWP'd writable page would COW-fault a second time. UFFD_FEATURE_RWP_ASYNC requires UFFD_FEATURE_RWP.

2026-08-04mm/pagemap: add PAGE_IS_ACCESSED for RWP trackingKiryl Shutsemau (Meta)
PAGEMAP_SCAN already reports PAGE_IS_WRITTEN from the inverted uffd PTE bit, targeting the UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT workflow. UFFDIO_RWPROTECT reuses the same PTE bit as a marker for read-write protection, but "has been written" and "has been accessed" are distinct semantic signals — they happen to share one PTE bit today only because the two implementations share infrastructure. Give RWP its own pagemap category so the UAPI does not conflate them: PAGE_IS_WRITTEN reported on VM_UFFD_WP VMAs, !pte_uffd(pte) PAGE_IS_ACCESSED reported on VM_UFFD_RWP VMAs, !pte_uffd(pte) Both still read the same PTE bit today, but each is scoped to the VMA whose registered mode makes the bit meaningful. If a future implementation moves RWP to a separate PTE bit, only PAGE_IS_ACCESSED switches over. This is a UAPI narrowing. Outside VM_UFFD_WP VMAs the uffd bit is always clear, so PAGEMAP_SCAN used to flag PAGE_IS_WRITTEN on every present PTE there — a meaningless duplicate of PAGE_IS_PRESENT. Now PAGE_IS_WRITTEN fires only inside VM_UFFD_WP VMAs. pagemap_hugetlb_category() now takes the vma like its PTE/PMD peers.

2026-08-04mm/userfaultfd: add RWP fault delivery and expose UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_RWPKiryl Shutsemau (Meta)
Wire the fault side of read-write protection tracking and turn the userspace interface on. An RWP-protected PTE is PAGE_NONE with the uffd bit set. The PROT_NONE triggers a fault on any access; the uffd bit distinguishes it from plain mprotect(PROT_NONE) or NUMA hinting. Fault dispatch, per level: PTE handle_pte_fault() -> do_uffd_rwp() PMD __handle_mm_fault() -> do_huge_pmd_uffd_rwp() hugetlb hugetlb_fault() -> hugetlb_handle_userfault() The RWP branches gate on userfaultfd_pte_rwp() / userfaultfd_huge_pmd_rwp() (VM_UFFD_RWP plus the uffd bit) and fall through to do_numa_page() / do_huge_pmd_numa_page() otherwise. Each delivers a UFFD_PAGEFAULT_FLAG_RWP message through handle_userfault(); the handler resolves it with UFFDIO_RWPROTECT clearing MODE_RWP. userfaultfd_must_wait() and userfaultfd_huge_must_wait() add matching protnone+uffd waiters so sync-mode fault handlers block correctly. Expose the UAPI: UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_RWP -> UFFD_API_REGISTER_MODES UFFD_FEATURE_RWP -> UFFD_API_FEATURES _UFFDIO_RWPROTECT -> UFFD_API_RANGE_IOCTLS UFFD_API_RANGE_IOCTLS_BASIC UFFD_FEATURE_RWP is masked out at UFFDIO_API time when PROT_NONE is not available or VM_UFFD_RWP aliases VM_NONE (32-bit), so userspace never sees an advertised-but-broken feature. Works on anonymous, shmem, and hugetlb memory.

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.

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.

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.

2026-08-05iio: core: add IIO_VAL_DECIMAL64_FEMTO format typeWadim Mueller
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.

Update iio-core's name table, the iio_event_monitor whitelist and the sysfs-bus-iio ABI document to match. The new _scale attribute is folded into the existing shared _scale block; only the per-type _raw needs a fresh entry.

2026-08-04remoteproc: fix OOB read via signed offset in rsc_table_for_each_entry()Mukesh Ojha
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.

2026-08-04ipv6: prevent in6_dev_get() from resurrecting inet6_devKyle Zeng
in6_dev_get() reads dev->ip6_ptr under RCU and then unconditionally increments its refcount. Device teardown can clear the pointer and drop the last reference between these operations. The increment then resurrects an object whose RCU free has already been queued, so callers can use it after it is freed. Use refcount_inc_not_zero() and return NULL when the object has already reached zero. RCU keeps the memory accessible through the attempted reference acquisition, and a successful increment pins the object for the caller. An independent run on the exact unpatched 6f5156d7a31a (v7.2-rc3) kernel reproduced the invalid reference acquisition as UID 1000: refcount_t: addition on 0; use-after-free. ip6_mc_source+0xef4/0x17e0 It was followed by the corresponding reference underflow in ip6_mc_source(). The supplied trace from the same unpatched revision additionally shows the access after the RCU read-side section ends: BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in mutex_lock+0x76/0xe0 Write of size 8 at addr ffff888015b50240 by task poc/1219 Bug found and triaged by OpenAI Security Research and validated by Trail of Bits.

function Currently, the TAS2781 SmartAMP driver uses the same profile ID for both playback and capture scenarios (e.g., PDM microphone recording or IV data capture). This makes it impossible to apply different DSP configurations for capture and playback, which is required in real-world tuning and production use cases. With these changes, capture and playback paths now use their own DSP profiles, improving tuning flexibility and avoiding unintended profile conflicts between SmartAMP capture and playback scenarios.

Prasad Kumpatla <prasad.kumpatla@oss.qualcomm.com> says: Add AudioReach support for LPASS Audio IF based TDM backends and wire it up for the sc8280xp machine driver. The series first adds topology-driven Audio IF source/sink handling so the DSP interface parameters can be described by topology while runtime media format and slot configuration still come from the machine driver. It then adds TDM DAI operations for q6apm-lpass-dais, exposes the Audio IF clock IDs through the q6dsp-lpass-ports binding and q6prm clock tables, and introduces common QCOM helpers for parsing standard dai-tdm-slot-* properties from backend CPU and codec endpoints. Finally, sc8280xp uses the common helpers during hw_params to program CPU and codec TDM slots, derive the backend bit clock from the active PCM parameters, and request the CPU and codec clocks before the stream is started.

2026-08-04ASoC: qcom: qdsp6: add topology-driven Audio IF supportPrasad Kumpatla
Add topology parsing and media-format programming for Audio IF source and sink modules. Add the Audio IF module IDs, the required topology tokens, and a dedicated topology loader that stores the parsed interface configuration in the AudioReach module state. Also add the Audio IF media-format path that sends the interface configuration, hardware endpoint media format, and frame-duration parameters for Audio IF modules. This keeps the serial-interface configuration topology-driven while still allowing the machine driver to provide runtime slot and media format settings. The same Audio IF path can then be reused for TDM, PCM, and I2S style backends. The new UAPI tokens (AR_TKN_U16_MODULE_SYNC_SRC=262 through AR_TKN_U8_MODULE_INV_EXT_BIT_CLK=276) are added, together with the value defines used by the sync source, sync mode, data delay, interface mode, bit clock type, and polarity tokens. MODULE_ID_AUDIO_IF_SINK (0x0700117C) and MODULE_ID_AUDIO_IF_SOURCE (0x0700117D) are introduced in this patch. This Module is validated on Hawi and Shikra platforms.
