db6cc3f4ac Revert "sched/numa: add statistics of numa balance task"
This reverts commit ad6b26b6a0.

This commit introduces per-memcg/task NUMA balance statistics, but
unfortunately it introduced a NULL pointer exception due to the following
race condition: After a swap task candidate was chosen, its mm_struct
pointer was set to NULL due to task exit.  Later, when performing the
actual task swapping, the p->mm caused the problem.

CPU0                                   CPU1
:
...
task_numa_migrate
     task_numa_find_cpu
      task_numa_compare
        # a normal task p is chosen
        env->best_task = p

                                          # p exit:
                                          exit_signals(p);
                                             p->flags |= PF_EXITING
                                          exit_mm
                                             p->mm = NULL;

      migrate_swap_stop
        __migrate_swap_task((arg->src_task, arg->dst_cpu)
         count_memcg_event_mm(p->mm, NUMA_TASK_SWAP)# p->mm is NULL

task_lock() should be held and the PF_EXITING flag needs to be checked to
prevent this from happening.  After discussion, the conclusion was that
adding a lock is not worthwhile for some statistics calculations.  Revert
the change and rely on the tracepoint for this purpose.

0cf6d425d3 gpio: sim: allow to mark simulated lines as invalid
Add a new line-level, boolean property to the gpio-sim configfs
interface called 'valid'. It's set by default and the user can unset it
to make the line be included in the standard `gpio-reserved-ranges`
property when the chip is registered with GPIO core. This allows users
to specify which lines should not be available for requesting as GPIOs.

aa9bb1b325 ima: add a knob ima= to allow disabling IMA in kdump kernel
Kdump kernel doesn't need IMA functionality, and enabling IMA will cost
extra memory. It would be very helpful to allow IMA to be disabled for
kdump kernel.

Hence add a knob ima=on|off here to allow turning IMA off in kdump
kernel if needed.

Note that this IMA disabling is limited to kdump kernel, please don't
abuse it in other kernel and thus serious consequences are caused.

a2fc422ed7 syscall_user_dispatch: Add PR_SYS_DISPATCH_INCLUSIVE_ON
There are two possible scenarios for syscall filtering:
 - having a trusted/allowed range of PCs, and intercepting everything else
 - or the opposite: a single untrusted/intercepted range and allowing
   everything else (this is relevant for any kind of sandboxing scenario,
   or monitoring behavior of a single library)

The current API only allows the former use case due to allowed
range wrap-around check. Add PR_SYS_DISPATCH_INCLUSIVE_ON that
enables the second use case.

Add PR_SYS_DISPATCH_EXCLUSIVE_ON alias for PR_SYS_DISPATCH_ON
to make it clear how it's different from the new
PR_SYS_DISPATCH_INCLUSIVE_ON.

38b9342ee6 Documentation: cgroup: add section explaining controller availability
Add "Availability" section to Control Group v2 docs. It describes the
meaning of a controller being available in a cgroup, complementing the
existing "Enabling and Disabling" section.

This update improves the clarity of cgroup controller management by
explicitly distinguishing between:

1. Availability – when a controller is supported by the kernel and
   listed in "cgroup.controllers", making its interface files accessible
   in the cgroup's directory.
2. Enabling – when a controller is enabled via explicitly writing the
   name of the controller to "cgroup.subtree_control" to control
   distribution of resource across the cgroup's immediate children.

As an example, consider

/sys/fs/cgroup # cat cgroup.controllers
cpuset cpu io memory hugetlb pids misc
/sys/fs/cgroup # cat cgroup.subtree_control # No controllers enabled by default
/sys/fs/cgroup # echo +cpu +memory > cgroup.subtree_control # enabling "cpu" and "memory"
/sys/fs/cgroup # cat cgroup.subtree_control
cpu memory                   # cpu and memory enabled in /sys/fs/cgroup
/sys/fs/cgroup # mkdir foo_cgrp
/sys/fs/cgroup # cd foo_cgrp/
/sys/fs/cgroup/foo_cgrp # cat cgroup.controllers
cpu memory                   # cpu and memory available in 'foo_cgrp'
/sys/fs/cgroup/foo_cgrp # cat cgroup.subtree_control  # empty by default
/sys/fs/cgroup/foo_cgrp # ls
cgroup.controllers      cpu.max.burst           memory.numa_stat
cgroup.events           cpu.pressure            memory.oom.group
cgroup.freeze           cpu.stat                memory.peak
cgroup.kill             cpu.stat.local          memory.pressure
cgroup.max.depth        cpu.weight              memory.reclaim
cgroup.max.descendants  cpu.weight.nice         memory.stat
cgroup.pressure         io.pressure             memory.swap.current
cgroup.procs            memory.current          memory.swap.events
cgroup.stat             memory.events           memory.swap.high
cgroup.subtree_control  memory.events.local     memory.swap.max
cgroup.threads          memory.high             memory.swap.peak
cgroup.type             memory.low              memory.zswap.current
cpu.idle                memory.max              memory.zswap.max
cpu.max                 memory.min              memory.zswap.writeback

In this example, "cpu" and "memory" are enabled in the root cgroup,
making them available in "foo_cgrp". This exposes the corresponding
interface files in "foo_cgrp/", allowing resource control of processes
in that cgroup. However, these controllers are not yet enabled in
"foo_cgrp" itself.

Once a controller is available in a cgroup it can be used to resource
control processes of the cgroup.

de1c831a78 slab: Decouple slab_debug and no_hash_pointers
Some system owners use slab_debug=FPZ (or similar) as a hardening option,
but do not want to be forced into having kernel addresses exposed due
to the implicit "no_hash_pointers" boot param setting.[1]

Introduce the "hash_pointers" boot param, which defaults to "auto"
(the current behavior), but also includes "always" (forcing on hashing
even when "slab_debug=..." is defined), and "never". The existing
"no_hash_pointers" boot param becomes an alias for "hash_pointers=never".

This makes it possible to boot with "slab_debug=FPZ hash_pointers=always".

c0c9379f23 USB/Thunderbolt changes for 6.16-rc1
Here is the big set of USB and Thunderbolt changes for 6.16-rc1.
 Included in here are the following:
   - USB offload support for audio devices.  I think this takes the
     record for the most number of patch series (30+) over the longest
     period of time (2+ years) to get merged properly.  Many props go to
     Wesley Cheng for seeing this effort through, they took a major
     out-of-tree hacked-up-monstrosity that was created by multiple
     vendors for their specific devices, got it all merged into a
     semi-coherent set of changes, and got all of the different major
     subsystems to agree on how this should be implemented both with
     changes to their code as well as userspace apis, AND wrangled the
     hardware companies into agreeing to go forward with this, despite
     making them all redo work they had already done in their private
     device trees.  This feature offers major power savings on embedded
     devices where a USB audio stream can continue to flow while the rest
     of the system is sleeping, something that devices running on battery
     power really care about.  There are still some more small tweaks
     left to be done here, and those patches are still out for review and
     arguing among the different hardware companies, but this is a major
     step forward and a great example of how to do upstream development
     well.
   - small number of thunderbolt fixes and updates, things seem to be
     slowing down here (famous last words...)
   - xhci refactors and reworking to try to handle some rough corner
     cases in some hardware implementations where things don't always
     work properly
   - typec driver updates
   - USB3 power management reworking and updates
   - Removal of some old and orphaned UDC gadget drivers that had not
     been used in a very long time, dropping over 11 thousand lines from
     the tree, always a nice thing, making up for the 12k lines added for
     the USB offload feature.
   - lots of little updates and fixes in different drivers
 
 All of these have been in linux-next for over 2 weeks, the USB offload
 logic has been in there for 8 weeks now, with no reported issues

10f885d63a arm64: Add override for MPAM
As the message of the commit 09e6b306f3 ("arm64: cpufeature: discover
CPU support for MPAM") already states, if a buggy firmware fails to
either enable MPAM or emulate the trap as if it were disabled, the
kernel will just fail to boot.  While upgrading the firmware should be
the best solution, we have some hardware of which the vendor have made
no response 2 months after we requested a firmware update.  Allow
overriding it so our devices don't become some e-waste.

ad6b26b6a0 sched/numa: add statistics of numa balance task
On systems with NUMA balancing enabled, it has been found that tracking
task activities resulting from NUMA balancing is beneficial.  NUMA
balancing employs two mechanisms for task migration: one is to migrate
a task to an idle CPU within its preferred node, and the other is to
swap tasks located on different nodes when they are on each other's
preferred nodes.

The kernel already provides NUMA page migration statistics in
/sys/fs/cgroup/mytest/memory.stat and /proc/{PID}/sched.  However, it
lacks statistics regarding task migration and swapping.  Therefore,
relevant counts for task migration and swapping should be added.

The following two new fields:

numa_task_migrated
numa_task_swapped

will be shown in /sys/fs/cgroup/{GROUP}/memory.stat, /proc/{PID}/sched
and /proc/vmstat.

Introducing both per-task and per-memory cgroup (memcg) NUMA balancing
statistics facilitates a rapid evaluation of the performance and
resource utilization of the target workload.  For instance, users can
first identify the container with high NUMA balancing activity and then
further pinpoint a specific task within that group, and subsequently
adjust the memory policy for that task.  In short, although it is
possible to iterate through /proc/$pid/sched to locate the problematic
task, the introduction of aggregated NUMA balancing activity for tasks
within each memcg can assist users in identifying the task more
efficiently through a divide-and-conquer approach.

As Libo Chen pointed out, the memcg event relies on the text names in
vmstat_text, and /proc/vmstat generates corresponding items based on
vmstat_text.  Thus, the relevant task migration and swapping events
introduced in vmstat_text also need to be populated by
count_vm_numa_event(), otherwise these values are zero in /proc/vmstat.

In theory, task migration and swap events are part of the scheduler's
activities.  The reason for exposing them through the
memory.stat/vmstat interface is that we already have NUMA balancing
statistics in memory.stat/vmstat, and these events are closely related
to each other.  Following Shakeel's suggestion, we describe the
end-to-end flow/story of all these events occurring on a timeline for
future reference:

The goal of NUMA balancing is to co-locate a task and its memory pages
on the same NUMA node.  There are two strategies: migrate the pages to
the task's node, or migrate the task to the node where its pages
reside.

Suppose a task p1 is running on Node 0, but its pages are located on
Node 1.  NUMA page fault statistics for p1 reveal its "page footprint"
across nodes.  If NUMA balancing detects that most of p1's pages are on
Node 1:

1.Page Migration Attempt:
The Numa balance first tries to migrate p1's pages to Node 0.
The numa_page_migrate counter increments.

2.Task Migration Strategies:
After the page migration finishes, Numa balance checks every
1 second to see if p1 can be migrated to Node 1.

Case 2.1: Idle CPU Available

  If Node 1 has an idle CPU, p1 is directly scheduled there.  This
  event is logged as numa_task_migrated.

Case 2.2: No Idle CPU (Task Swap)

  If all CPUs on Node1 are busy, direct migration could cause CPU
  contention or load imbalance.  Instead: The Numa balance selects a
  candidate task p2 on Node 1 that prefers Node 0 (e.g., due to its own
  page footprint).  p1 and p2 are swapped.  This cross-node swap is
  recorded as numa_task_swapped.

simplifies the act of creating a pte which addresses the first page in a
   folio and reduces the amount of plumbing which architecture must
   implement to provide this.
 
 - The 8 patch series "Misc folio patches for 6.16" from Matthew Wilcox
   is a shower of largely unrelated folio infrastructure changes which
   clean things up and better prepare us for future work.
 
 - The 3 patch series "memory,x86,acpi: hotplug memory alignment
   advisement" from Gregory Price adds early-init code to prevent x86 from
   leaving physical memory unused when physical address regions are not
   aligned to memory block size.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/compaction: allow more aggressive proactive
   compaction" from Michal Clapinski provides some tuning of the (sadly,
   hard-coded (more sadly, not auto-tuned)) thresholds for our invokation
   of proactive compaction.  In a simple test case, the reduction of a guest
   VM's memory consumption was dramatic.
 
 - The 8 patch series "Minor cleanups and improvements to swap freeing
   code" from Kemeng Shi provides some code cleaups and a small efficiency
   improvement to this part of our swap handling code.
 
 - The 6 patch series "ptrace: introduce PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO API"
   from Dmitry Levin adds the ability for a ptracer to modify syscalls
   arguments.  At this time we can alter only "system call information that
   are used by strace system call tampering, namely, syscall number,
   syscall arguments, and syscall return value.
 
   This series should have been incorporated into mm.git's "non-MM"
   branch, but I goofed.
 
 - The 3 patch series "fs/proc: extend the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl to report
   guard regions" from Andrei Vagin extends the info returned by the
   PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl against /proc/pid/pagemap.  This permits CRIU to more
   efficiently get at the info about guard regions.
 
 - The 2 patch series "Fix parameter passed to page_mapcount_is_type()"
   from Gavin Shan implements that fix.  No runtime effect is expected
   because validate_page_before_insert() happens to fix up this error.
 
 - The 3 patch series "kernel/events/uprobes: uprobe_write_opcode()
   rewrite" from David Hildenbrand basically brings uprobe text poking into
   the current decade.  Remove a bunch of hand-rolled implementation in
   favor of using more current facilities.
 
 - The 3 patch series "mm/ptdump: Drop assumption that pxd_val() is u64"
   from Anshuman Khandual provides enhancements and generalizations to the
   pte dumping code.  This might be needed when 128-bit Page Table
   Descriptors are enabled for ARM.
 
 - The 12 patch series "Always call constructor for kernel page tables"
   from Kevin Brodsky "ensures that the ctor/dtor is always called for
   kernel pgtables, as it already is for user pgtables".  This permits the
   addition of more functionality such as "insert hooks to protect page
   tables".  This change does result in various architectures performing
   unnecesary work, but this is fixed up where it is anticipated to occur.
 
 - The 9 patch series "Rust support for mm_struct, vm_area_struct, and
   mmap" from Alice Ryhl adds plumbing to permit Rust access to core MM
   structures.
 
 - The 3 patch series "fix incorrectly disallowed anonymous VMA merges"
   from Lorenzo Stoakes takes advantage of some VMA merging opportunities
   which we've been missing for 15 years.
 
 - The 4 patch series "mm/madvise: batch tlb flushes for MADV_DONTNEED
   and MADV_FREE" from SeongJae Park optimizes process_madvise()'s TLB
   flushing.  Instead of flushing each address range in the provided iovec,
   we batch the flushing across all the iovec entries.  The syscall's cost
   was approximately halved with a microbenchmark which was designed to
   load this particular operation.
 
 - The 6 patch series "Track node vacancy to reduce worst case allocation
   counts" from Sidhartha Kumar makes the maple tree smarter about its node
   preallocation.  stress-ng mmap performance increased by single-digit
   percentages and the amount of unnecessarily preallocated memory was
   dramaticelly reduced.
 
 - The 3 patch series "mm/gup: Minor fix, cleanup and improvements" from
   Baoquan He removes a few unnecessary things which Baoquan noted when
   reading the code.
 
 - The 3 patch series ""Enhance sysfs handling for memory hotplug in
   weighted interleave" from Rakie Kim "enhances the weighted interleave
   policy in the memory management subsystem by improving sysfs handling,
   fixing memory leaks, and introducing dynamic sysfs updates for memory
   hotplug support".  Fixes things on error paths which we are unlikely to
   hit.
 
 - The 7 patch series "mm/damon: auto-tune DAMOS for NUMA setups
   including tiered memory" from SeongJae Park introduces new DAMOS quota
   goal metrics which eliminate the manual tuning which is required when
   utilizing DAMON for memory tiering.
 
 - The 5 patch series "mm/vmalloc.c: code cleanup and improvements" from
   Baoquan He provides cleanups and small efficiency improvements which
   Baoquan found via code inspection.
 
 - The 2 patch series "vmscan: enforce mems_effective during demotion"
   from Gregory Price "changes reclaim to respect cpuset.mems_effective
   during demotion when possible".  because "presently, reclaim explicitly
   ignores cpuset.mems_effective when demoting, which may cause the cpuset
   settings to violated." "This is useful for isolating workloads on a
   multi-tenant system from certain classes of memory more consistently."
 
 - The 2 patch series ""Clean up split_huge_pmd_locked() and remove
   unnecessary folio pointers" from Gavin Guo provides minor cleanups and
   efficiency gains in in the huge page splitting and migrating code.
 
 - The 3 patch series "Use kmem_cache for memcg alloc" from Huan Yang
   creates a slab cache for `struct mem_cgroup', yielding improved memory
   utilization.
 
 - The 4 patch series "add max arg to swappiness in memory.reclaim and
   lru_gen" from Zhongkun He adds a new "max" argument to the "swappiness="
   argument for memory.reclaim MGLRU's lru_gen.  This directs proactive
   reclaim to reclaim from only anon folios rather than file-backed folios.
 
 - The 17 patch series "kexec: introduce Kexec HandOver (KHO)" from Mike
   Rapoport is the first step on the path to permitting the kernel to
   maintain existing VMs while replacing the host kernel via file-based
   kexec.  At this time only memblock's reserve_mem is preserved.
 
 - The 7 patch series "mm: Introduce for_each_valid_pfn()" from David
   Woodhouse provides and uses a smarter way of looping over a pfn range.
   By skipping ranges of invalid pfns.
 
 - The 2 patch series "sched/numa: Skip VMA scanning on memory pinned to
   one NUMA node via cpuset.mems" from Libo Chen removes a lot of pointless
   VMA scanning when a task is pinned a single NUMA mode.  Dramatic
   performance benefits were seen in some real world cases.
 
 - The 2 patch series "JFS: Implement migrate_folio for
   jfs_metapage_aops" from Shivank Garg addresses a warning which occurs
   during memory compaction when using JFS.
 
 - The 4 patch series "move all VMA allocation, freeing and duplication
   logic to mm" from Lorenzo Stoakes moves some VMA code from kernel/fork.c
   into the more appropriate mm/vma.c.
 
 - The 6 patch series "mm, swap: clean up swap cache mapping helper" from
   Kairui Song provides code consolidation and cleanups related to the
   folio_index() function.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/gup: Cleanup memfd_pin_folios()" from Vishal
   Moola does that.
 
 - The 8 patch series "memcg: Fix test_memcg_min/low test failures" from
   Waiman Long addresses some bogus failures which are being reported by
   the test_memcontrol selftest.
 
 - The 3 patch series "eliminate mmap() retry merge, add .mmap_prepare
   hook" from Lorenzo Stoakes commences the deprecation of
   file_operations.mmap() in favor of the new
   file_operations.mmap_prepare().  The latter is more restrictive and
   prevents drivers from messing with things in ways which, amongst other
   problems, may defeat VMA merging.
 
 - The 4 patch series "memcg: decouple memcg and objcg stocks"" from
   Shakeel Butt decouples the per-cpu memcg charge cache from the objcg's
   one.  This is a step along the way to making memcg and objcg charging
   NMI-safe, which is a BPF requirement.
 
 - The 6 patch series "mm/damon: minor fixups and improvements for code,
   tests, and documents" from SeongJae Park is "yet another batch of
   miscellaneous DAMON changes.  Fix and improve minor problems in code,
   tests and documents."
 
 - The 7 patch series "memcg: make memcg stats irq safe" from Shakeel
   Butt converts memcg stats to be irq safe.  Another step along the way to
   making memcg charging and stats updates NMI-safe, a BPF requirement.
 
 - The 4 patch series "Let unmap_hugepage_range() and several related
   functions take folio instead of page" from Fan Ni provides folio
   conversions in the hugetlb code.

   Price adds early-init code to prevent x86 from leaving physical
   memory unused when physical address regions are not aligned to memory
   block size.

 - "mm/compaction: allow more aggressive proactive compaction" from
   Michal Clapinski provides some tuning of the (sadly, hard-coded (more
   sadly, not auto-tuned)) thresholds for our invokation of proactive
   compaction. In a simple test case, the reduction of a guest VM's
   memory consumption was dramatic.

 - "Minor cleanups and improvements to swap freeing code" from Kemeng
   Shi provides some code cleaups and a small efficiency improvement to
   this part of our swap handling code.

 - "ptrace: introduce PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO API" from Dmitry Levin
   adds the ability for a ptracer to modify syscalls arguments. At this
   time we can alter only "system call information that are used by
   strace system call tampering, namely, syscall number, syscall
   arguments, and syscall return value.

   This series should have been incorporated into mm.git's "non-MM"
   branch, but I goofed.

 - "fs/proc: extend the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl to report guard regions" from
   Andrei Vagin extends the info returned by the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl
   against /proc/pid/pagemap. This permits CRIU to more efficiently get
   at the info about guard regions.

 - "Fix parameter passed to page_mapcount_is_type()" from Gavin Shan
   implements that fix. No runtime effect is expected because
   validate_page_before_insert() happens to fix up this error.

 - "kernel/events/uprobes: uprobe_write_opcode() rewrite" from David
   Hildenbrand basically brings uprobe text poking into the current
   decade. Remove a bunch of hand-rolled implementation in favor of
   using more current facilities.

 - "mm/ptdump: Drop assumption that pxd_val() is u64" from Anshuman
   Khandual provides enhancements and generalizations to the pte dumping
   code. This might be needed when 128-bit Page Table Descriptors are
   enabled for ARM.

 - "Always call constructor for kernel page tables" from Kevin Brodsky
   ensures that the ctor/dtor is always called for kernel pgtables, as
   it already is for user pgtables.

   This permits the addition of more functionality such as "insert hooks
   to protect page tables". This change does result in various
   architectures performing unnecesary work, but this is fixed up where
   it is anticipated to occur.

 - "Rust support for mm_struct, vm_area_struct, and mmap" from Alice
   Ryhl adds plumbing to permit Rust access to core MM structures.

 - "fix incorrectly disallowed anonymous VMA merges" from Lorenzo
   Stoakes takes advantage of some VMA merging opportunities which we've
   been missing for 15 years.

 - "mm/madvise: batch tlb flushes for MADV_DONTNEED and MADV_FREE" from
   SeongJae Park optimizes process_madvise()'s TLB flushing.

   Instead of flushing each address range in the provided iovec, we
   batch the flushing across all the iovec entries. The syscall's cost
   was approximately halved with a microbenchmark which was designed to
   load this particular operation.

 - "Track node vacancy to reduce worst case allocation counts" from
   Sidhartha Kumar makes the maple tree smarter about its node
   preallocation.

   stress-ng mmap performance increased by single-digit percentages and
   the amount of unnecessarily preallocated memory was dramaticelly
   reduced.

 - "mm/gup: Minor fix, cleanup and improvements" from Baoquan He removes
   a few unnecessary things which Baoquan noted when reading the code.

 - ""Enhance sysfs handling for memory hotplug in weighted interleave"
   from Rakie Kim "enhances the weighted interleave policy in the memory
   management subsystem by improving sysfs handling, fixing memory
   leaks, and introducing dynamic sysfs updates for memory hotplug
   support". Fixes things on error paths which we are unlikely to hit.

 - "mm/damon: auto-tune DAMOS for NUMA setups including tiered memory"
   from SeongJae Park introduces new DAMOS quota goal metrics which
   eliminate the manual tuning which is required when utilizing DAMON
   for memory tiering.

 - "mm/vmalloc.c: code cleanup and improvements" from Baoquan He
   provides cleanups and small efficiency improvements which Baoquan
   found via code inspection.

 - "vmscan: enforce mems_effective during demotion" from Gregory Price
   changes reclaim to respect cpuset.mems_effective during demotion when
   possible. because presently, reclaim explicitly ignores
   cpuset.mems_effective when demoting, which may cause the cpuset
   settings to violated.

   This is useful for isolating workloads on a multi-tenant system from
   certain classes of memory more consistently.

 - "Clean up split_huge_pmd_locked() and remove unnecessary folio
   pointers" from Gavin Guo provides minor cleanups and efficiency gains
   in in the huge page splitting and migrating code.

 - "Use kmem_cache for memcg alloc" from Huan Yang creates a slab cache
   for `struct mem_cgroup', yielding improved memory utilization.

 - "add max arg to swappiness in memory.reclaim and lru_gen" from
   Zhongkun He adds a new "max" argument to the "swappiness=" argument
   for memory.reclaim MGLRU's lru_gen.

   This directs proactive reclaim to reclaim from only anon folios
   rather than file-backed folios.

 - "kexec: introduce Kexec HandOver (KHO)" from Mike Rapoport is the
   first step on the path to permitting the kernel to maintain existing
   VMs while replacing the host kernel via file-based kexec. At this
   time only memblock's reserve_mem is preserved.

 - "mm: Introduce for_each_valid_pfn()" from David Woodhouse provides
   and uses a smarter way of looping over a pfn range. By skipping
   ranges of invalid pfns.

 - "sched/numa: Skip VMA scanning on memory pinned to one NUMA node via
   cpuset.mems" from Libo Chen removes a lot of pointless VMA scanning
   when a task is pinned a single NUMA mode.

   Dramatic performance benefits were seen in some real world cases.

 - "JFS: Implement migrate_folio for jfs_metapage_aops" from Shivank
   Garg addresses a warning which occurs during memory compaction when
   using JFS.

 - "move all VMA allocation, freeing and duplication logic to mm" from
   Lorenzo Stoakes moves some VMA code from kernel/fork.c into the more
   appropriate mm/vma.c.

 - "mm, swap: clean up swap cache mapping helper" from Kairui Song
   provides code consolidation and cleanups related to the folio_index()
   function.

 - "mm/gup: Cleanup memfd_pin_folios()" from Vishal Moola does that.

 - "memcg: Fix test_memcg_min/low test failures" from Waiman Long
   addresses some bogus failures which are being reported by the
   test_memcontrol selftest.

 - "eliminate mmap() retry merge, add .mmap_prepare hook" from Lorenzo
   Stoakes commences the deprecation of file_operations.mmap() in favor
   of the new file_operations.mmap_prepare().

   The latter is more restrictive and prevents drivers from messing with
   things in ways which, amongst other problems, may defeat VMA merging.

 - "memcg: decouple memcg and objcg stocks"" from Shakeel Butt decouples
   the per-cpu memcg charge cache from the objcg's one.

   This is a step along the way to making memcg and objcg charging
   NMI-safe, which is a BPF requirement.

 - "mm/damon: minor fixups and improvements for code, tests, and
   documents" from SeongJae Park is yet another batch of miscellaneous
   DAMON changes. Fix and improve minor problems in code, tests and
   documents.

 - "memcg: make memcg stats irq safe" from Shakeel Butt converts memcg
   stats to be irq safe. Another step along the way to making memcg
   charging and stats updates NMI-safe, a BPF requirement.

 - "Let unmap_hugepage_range() and several related functions take folio
   instead of page" from Fan Ni provides folio conversions in the
   hugetlb code.

dee264c16a require gcc-8 and binutils-2.30
x86 already uses gcc-8 as the minimum version, this changes all other
 architectures to the same version. gcc-8 is used is Debian 10 and Red
 Hat Enterprise Linux 8, both of which are still supported, and binutils
 2.30 is the oldest corresponding version on those. Ubuntu Pro 18.04 and
 SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 15 both use gcc-7 as the system compiler
 but additionally include toolchains that remain supported.
 
 With the new minimum toolchain versions, a number of workarounds for older
 versions can be dropped, in particular on x86_64 and arm64.  Importantly,
 the updated compiler version allows removing two of the five remaining
 gcc plugins, as support for sancov and structeak features is already
 included in modern compiler versions.
 
 I tried collecting the known changes that are possible based on the
 new toolchain version, but expect that more cleanups will be possible.
 Since this touches multiple architectures, I merged the patches through
 the asm-generic tree.

Pull IPE update from Fan Wu:
 "A single commit from Jasjiv Singh, that adds an errno field to IPE
  policy load auditing to log failures with error details, not just
  successes.

  This improves the security audit trail and helps diagnose policy
  deployment issues"

1b98f357da Networking changes for 6.16.
Core
 ----
 
  - Implement the Device Memory TCP transmit path, allowing zero-copy
    data transmission on top of TCP from e.g. GPU memory to the wire.
 
  - Move all the IPv6 routing tables management outside the RTNL scope,
    under its own lock and RCU. The route control path is now 3x times
    faster.
 
  - Convert queue related netlink ops to instance lock, reducing
    again the scope of the RTNL lock. This improves the control plane
    scalability.
 
  - Refactor the software crc32c implementation, removing unneeded
    abstraction layers and improving significantly the related
    micro-benchmarks.
 
  - Optimize the GRO engine for UDP-tunneled traffic, for a 10%
    performance improvement in related stream tests.
 
  - Cover more per-CPU storage with local nested BH locking; this is a
    prep work to remove the current per-CPU lock in local_bh_disable()
    on PREMPT_RT.
 
  - Introduce and use nlmsg_payload helper, combining buffer bounds
    verification with accessing payload carried by netlink messages.
 
 Netfilter
 ---------
 
  - Rewrite the procfs conntrack table implementation, improving
    considerably the dump performance. A lot of user-space tools
    still use this interface.
 
  - Implement support for wildcard netdevice in netdev basechain
    and flowtables.
 
  - Integrate conntrack information into nft trace infrastructure.
 
  - Export set count and backend name to userspace, for better
    introspection.
 
 BPF
 ---
 
  - BPF qdisc support: BPF-qdisc can be implemented with BPF struct_ops
    programs and can be controlled in similar way to traditional qdiscs
    using the "tc qdisc" command.
 
  - Refactor the UDP socket iterator, addressing long standing issues
    WRT duplicate hits or missed sockets.
 
 Protocols
 ---------
 
  - Improve TCP receive buffer auto-tuning and increase the default
    upper bound for the receive buffer; overall this improves the single
    flow maximum thoughput on 200Gbs link by over 60%.
 
  - Add AFS GSSAPI security class to AF_RXRPC; it provides transport
    security for connections to the AFS fileserver and VL server.
 
  - Improve TCP multipath routing, so that the sources address always
    matches the nexthop device.
 
  - Introduce SO_PASSRIGHTS for AF_UNIX, to allow disabling SCM_RIGHTS,
    and thus preventing DoS caused by passing around problematic FDs.
 
  - Retire DCCP socket. DCCP only receives updates for bugs, and major
    distros disable it by default. Its removal allows for better
    organisation of TCP fields to reduce the number of cache lines hit
    in the fast path.
 
  - Extend TCP drop-reason support to cover PAWS checks.
 
 Driver API
 ----------
 
  - Reorganize PTP ioctl flag support to require an explicit opt-in for
    the drivers, avoiding the problem of drivers not rejecting new
    unsupported flags.
 
  - Converted several device drivers to timestamping APIs.
 
  - Introduce per-PHY ethtool dump helpers, improving the support for
    dump operations targeting PHYs.
 
 Tests and tooling
 -----------------
 
  - Add support for classic netlink in user space C codegen, so that
    ynl-c can now read, create and modify links, routes addresses and
    qdisc layer configuration.
 
  - Add ynl sub-types for binary attributes, allowing ynl-c to output
    known struct instead of raw binary data, clarifying the classic
    netlink output.
 
  - Extend MPTCP selftests to improve the code-coverage.
 
  - Add tests for XDP tail adjustment in AF_XDP.
 
 New hardware / drivers
 ----------------------
 
  - OpenVPN virtual driver: offload OpenVPN data channels processing
    to the kernel-space, increasing the data transfer throughput WRT
    the user-space implementation.
 
  - Renesas glue driver for the gigabit ethernet RZ/V2H(P) SoC.
 
  - Broadcom asp-v3.0 ethernet driver.
 
  - AMD Renoir ethernet device.
 
  - ReakTek MT9888 2.5G ethernet PHY driver.
 
  - Aeonsemi 10G C45 PHYs driver.

3b66e6b3c0 cgroup: Changes for v6.16
- cgroup rstat shared the tracking tree across all controlers with the
   rationale being that a cgroup which is using one resource is likely to be
   using other resources at the same time (ie. if something is allocating
   memory, it's probably consuming CPU cycles). However, this turned out to
   not scale very well especially with memcg using rstat for internal
   operations which made memcg stat read and flush patterns substantially
   different from other controllers. JP Kobryn split the rstat tree per
   controller.
 
 - cgroup BPF support was hooking into cgroup init/exit paths directly.
   Convert them to use a notifier chain instead so that other usages can be
   added easily. The two of the patches which implement this are mislabeled
   as belonging to sched_ext instead of cgroup. Sorry.
 
 - Relatively minor cpuset updates.
 
 - Documentation updates.

1d887d6f81 ipe: add errno field to IPE policy load auditing
Users of IPE require a way to identify when and why an operation fails,
allowing them to both respond to violations of policy and be notified
of potentially malicious actions on their systems with respect to IPE.

This patch introduces a new error field to the AUDIT_IPE_POLICY_LOAD event
to log policy loading failures. Currently, IPE only logs successful policy
loads, but not failures. Tracking failures is crucial to detect malicious
attempts and ensure a complete audit trail for security events.

The new error field will capture the following error codes:

* -ENOKEY: Key used to sign the IPE policy not found in the keyring
* -ESTALE: Attempting to update an IPE policy with an older version
* -EKEYREJECTED: IPE signature verification failed
* -ENOENT: Policy was deleted while updating
* -EEXIST: Same name policy already deployed
* -ERANGE: Policy version number overflow
* -EINVAL: Policy version parsing error
* -EPERM: Insufficient permission
* -ENOMEM: Out of memory (OOM)
* -EBADMSG: Policy is invalid

Here are some examples of the updated audit record types:

AUDIT_IPE_POLICY_LOAD(1422):
audit:  AUDIT1422 policy_name="Test_Policy" policy_version=0.0.1
policy_digest=sha256:84EFBA8FA71E62AE0A537FAB962F8A2BD1053964C4299DCA
92BFFF4DB82E86D3 auid=1000 ses=3 lsm=ipe res=1 errno=0

The above record shows a new policy has been successfully loaded into
the kernel with the policy name, version, and hash with the errno=0.

AUDIT_IPE_POLICY_LOAD(1422) with error:

audit: AUDIT1422 policy_name=? policy_version=? policy_digest=?
auid=1000 ses=3 lsm=ipe res=0 errno=-74

The above record shows a policy load failure due to an invalid policy
(-EBADMSG).

By adding this error field, we ensure that all policy load attempts,
whether successful or failed, are logged, providing a comprehensive
audit trail for IPE policy management.

Merge tag 'pm-6.16-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "Once again, the changes are dominated by cpufreq updates, but this
  time the majority of them are cpufreq core changes, mostly related to
  the introduction of policy locking guards and __free() usage, and
  fixes related to boost handling.

  Still, there is also a significant update of the intel_pstate driver
  making it register an energy model when running on a hybrid platform
  which is used for enabling energy-aware scheduling (EAS) if the driver
  operates in the passive mode (and schedutil is used as the cpufreq
  governor for all CPUs which is the passive mode default).

  There are some amd-pstate driver updates too, for a good measure,
  including the "Requested CPU Min frequency" BIOS option support and
  new online/offline callbacks.

  In the cpuidle space, the most significant change is the addition of a
  C1 demotion on/off sysfs knob to intel_idle which should help some
  users to configure their systems more precisely. There is also the
  conversion of the PSCI cpuidle driver to a faux device one and there
  are two small updates of cpuidle governors.

  Device power management is also modified quite a bit, especially the
  handling of devices with asynchronous suspend and resume enabled
  during system transitions. They are now going to be handled more
  asynchronously during suspend transitions and somewhat less
  aggressively during resume transitions.

  Apart from the above, the operating performance points (OPP) library
  is now going to use mutex locking guards and scope-based cleanup
  helpers and there is the usual bunch of assorted fixes and code
  cleanups.

  Specifics:

   - Fix potential division-by-zero error in em_compute_costs() (Yaxiong
     Tian)

   - Fix typos in energy model documentation and example driver code
     (Moon Hee Lee, Atul Kumar Pant)

Pull gpio updates from Bartosz Golaszewski:
 "We have three new drivers, some refactoring in the GPIO core, lots of
  various changes across many drivers, new configfs interface for the
  virtual gpio-aggregator module and DT-bindings updates.

  The treewide conversion of GPIO drivers to using the new value setter

   with a Python reimplementation.  That, too, is a horrifying collection of
   regexes, but in a much cleaner and more maintainable structure that
   integrates far better with the Sphinx build system.
 
   This change has been in linux-next for the full 6.15 cycle; the small
   number of problems that turned up have been addressed, seemingly to
   everybody's satisfaction.  The Perl kernel-doc script remains in tree (as
   scripts/kernel-doc.pl) and can be used with a command-line option if need

785cdec46e Core x86 updates for v6.16:
Boot code changes:
 
  - A large series of changes to reorganize the x86 boot code into a better isolated
    and easier to maintain base of PIC early startup code in arch/x86/boot/startup/,
    by Ard Biesheuvel.
 
    Motivation & background:
 
 	| Since commit
 	|
 	|    c88d71508e ("x86/boot/64: Rewrite startup_64() in C")
 	|
 	| dated Jun 6 2017, we have been using C code on the boot path in a way
 	| that is not supported by the toolchain, i.e., to execute non-PIC C
 	| code from a mapping of memory that is different from the one provided
 	| to the linker. It should have been obvious at the time that this was a
 	| bad idea, given the need to sprinkle fixup_pointer() calls left and
 	| right to manipulate global variables (including non-pointer variables)
 	| without crashing.
 	|
 	| This C startup code has been expanding, and in particular, the SEV-SNP
 	| startup code has been expanding over the past couple of years, and
 	| grown many of these warts, where the C code needs to use special
 	| annotations or helpers to access global objects.
 
    This tree includes the first phase of this work-in-progress x86 boot code
    reorganization.

Merge tag 'vfs-6.16-rc1.misc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
 "This contains the usual selections of misc updates for this cycle.

  Features:

   - Use folios for symlinks in the page cache

     FUSE already uses folios for its symlinks. Mirror that conversion
     in the generic code and the NFS code. That lets us get rid of a few
     folio->page->folio conversions in this path, and some of the few
     remaining users of read_cache_page() / read_mapping_page()

   - Try and make a few filesystem operations killable on the VFS
     inode->i_mutex level

   - Add sysctl vfs_cache_pressure_denom for bulk file operations

     Some workloads need to preserve more dentries than we currently
     allow through out sysctl interface

     A HDFS servers with 12 HDDs per server, on a HDFS datanode startup
     involves scanning all files and caching their metadata (including
     dentries and inodes) in memory. Each HDD contains approximately 2
     million files, resulting in a total of ~20 million cached dentries
     after initialization

     To minimize dentry reclamation, they set vfs_cache_pressure to 1.
     Despite this configuration, memory pressure conditions can still
     trigger reclamation of up to 50% of cached dentries, reducing the
     cache from 20 million to approximately 10 million entries. During
     the subsequent cache rebuild period, any HDFS datanode restart
     operation incurs substantial latency penalties until full cache
     recovery completes

     To maintain service stability, more dentries need to be preserved
     during memory reclamation. The current minimum reclaim ratio (1/100
     of total dentries) remains too aggressive for such workload. This
     patch introduces vfs_cache_pressure_denom for more granular cache
     pressure control

     The configuration [vfs_cache_pressure=1,
     vfs_cache_pressure_denom=10000] effectively maintains the full 20
     million dentry cache under memory pressure, preventing datanode
     restart performance degradation

   - Avoid some jumps in inode_permission() using likely()/unlikely()

   - Avid a memory access which is most likely a cache miss when
     descending into devcgroup_inode_permission()

   - Add fastpath predicts for stat() and fdput()

   - Anonymous inodes currently don't come with a proper mode causing
     issues in the kernel when we want to add useful VFS debug assert.
     Fix that by giving them a proper mode and masking it off when we
     report it to userspace which relies on them not having any mode

   - Anonymous inodes currently allow to change inode attributes because
     the VFS falls back to simple_setattr() if i_op->setattr isn't
     implemented. This means the ownership and mode for every single
     user of anon_inode_inode can be changed. Block that as it's either
     useless or actively harmful. If specific ownership is needed the
     respective subsystem should allocate anonymous inodes from their
     own private superblock

   - Raise SB_I_NODEV and SB_I_NOEXEC on the anonymous inode superblock

DAMON was initially developed only for data access monitoring, and then
extended for not only access monitoring but also access-aware system
operations (DAMOS).  But the documents have old titles and brief
introductions for only the monitoring part.  Update the titles and the
brief introductions to explain DAMOS part together.

9ebfa8dcae crash_dump: reuse saved dm crypt keys for CPU/memory hot-plugging
When there are CPU and memory hot un/plugs, the dm crypt keys may need to
be reloaded again depending on the solution for crash hotplug support. 
Currently, there are two solutions.  One is to utilizes udev to instruct
user space to reload the kdump kernel image and initrd, elfcorehdr and etc
again.  The other is to only update the elfcorehdr segment introduced in
commit 2472627561 ("crash: add generic infrastructure for crash hotplug
support").

For the 1st solution, the dm crypt keys need to be reloaded again.  The
user space can write true to /sys/kernel/config/crash_dm_crypt_key/reuse
so the stored keys can be re-used.

For the 2nd solution, the dm crypt keys don't need to be reloaded. 
Currently, only x86 supports the 2nd solution.  If the 2nd solution gets
extended to all arches, this patch can be dropped.

180cf31af7 crash_dump: make dm crypt keys persist for the kdump kernel
A configfs /sys/kernel/config/crash_dm_crypt_keys is provided for user
space to make the dm crypt keys persist for the kdump kernel.  Take the
case of dumping to a LUKS-encrypted target as an example, here is the life
cycle of the kdump copies of LUKS volume keys,

 1. After the 1st kernel loads the initramfs during boot, systemd uses
    an user-input passphrase to de-crypt the LUKS volume keys or simply
    TPM-sealed volume keys and then save the volume keys to specified
    keyring (using the --link-vk-to-keyring API) and the keys will expire
    within specified time.

 2. A user space tool (kdump initramfs loader like kdump-utils) create
    key items inside /sys/kernel/config/crash_dm_crypt_keys to inform
    the 1st kernel which keys are needed.

 3. When the kdump initramfs is loaded by the kexec_file_load
    syscall, the 1st kernel will iterate created key items, save the
    keys to kdump reserved memory.

 4. When the 1st kernel crashes and the kdump initramfs is booted, the
    kdump initramfs asks the kdump kernel to create a user key using the
    key stored in kdump reserved memory by writing yes to
    /sys/kernel/crash_dm_crypt_keys/restore. Then the LUKS encrypted
    device is unlocked with libcryptsetup's --volume-key-keyring API.

 5. The system gets rebooted to the 1st kernel after dumping vmcore to
    the LUKS encrypted device is finished

Eventually the keys have to stay in the kdump reserved memory for the
kdump kernel to unlock encrypted volumes.  During this process, some
measures like letting the keys expire within specified time are desirable
to reduce security risk.

This patch assumes,
1) there are 128 LUKS devices at maximum to be unlocked thus
   MAX_KEY_NUM=128.

2) a key description won't exceed 128 bytes thus KEY_DESC_MAX_LEN=128.

And here is a demo on how to interact with
/sys/kernel/config/crash_dm_crypt_keys,

    # Add key #1
    mkdir /sys/kernel/config/crash_dm_crypt_keys/7d26b7b4-e342-4d2d-b660-7426b0996720
    # Add key #1's description
    echo cryptsetup:7d26b7b4-e342-4d2d-b660-7426b0996720 > /sys/kernel/config/crash_dm_crypt_keys/description

    # how many keys do we have now?
    cat /sys/kernel/config/crash_dm_crypt_keys/count
    1

    # Add key# 2 in the same way

    # how many keys do we have now?
    cat /sys/kernel/config/crash_dm_crypt_keys/count
    2

    # the tree structure of /crash_dm_crypt_keys configfs

aafe12f980 rcutorture: Perform more frequent testing of ->gpwrap
Currently, the ->gpwrap is not tested (at all per my testing) due to the
requirement of a large delta between a CPU's rdp->gp_seq and its node's
rnp->gpseq.

This results in no testing of ->gpwrap being set. This patch by default
adds 5 minutes of testing with ->gpwrap forced by lowering the delta
between rdp->gp_seq and rnp->gp_seq to just 8 GPs. All of this is
configurable, including the active time for the setting and a full
testing cycle.

By default, the first 25 minutes of a test will have the _default_
behavior there is right now (ULONG_MAX / 4) delta. Then for 5 minutes,
we switch to a smaller delta causing 1-2 wraps in 5 minutes. I believe
this is reasonable since we at least add a little bit of testing for
usecases where ->gpwrap is set.

vfs: Add sysctl vfs_cache_pressure_denom for bulk file operations
On our HDFS servers with 12 HDDs per server, a HDFS datanode[0] startup
involves scanning all files and caching their metadata (including dentries
and inodes) in memory. Each HDD contains approximately 2 million files,
resulting in a total of ~20 million cached dentries after initialization.

To minimize dentry reclamation, we set vfs_cache_pressure to 1. Despite
this configuration, memory pressure conditions can still trigger
reclamation of up to 50% of cached dentries, reducing the cache from 20
million to approximately 10 million entries. During the subsequent cache
rebuild period, any HDFS datanode restart operation incurs substantial
latency penalties until full cache recovery completes.

To maintain service stability, we need to preserve more dentries during
memory reclamation. The current minimum reclaim ratio (1/100 of total
dentries) remains too aggressive for our workload. This patch introduces
vfs_cache_pressure_denom for more granular cache pressure control. The
configuration [vfs_cache_pressure=1, vfs_cache_pressure_denom=10000]
effectively maintains the full 20 million dentry cache under memory
pressure, preventing datanode restart performance degradation.

b40599930f mm: add max swappiness arg to lru_gen for anonymous memory only
The MGLRU already supports reclaiming only from anonymous memory via the
/sys/kernel/debug/lru_gen interface.  Now, memory.reclaim also supports
the swappiness=max parameter to enable reclaiming solely from anonymous
memory.  To unify the semantics of proactive reclaiming from anonymous
folios, the max parameter is introduced.

68a1436bde mm: add swappiness=max arg to memory.reclaim for only anon reclaim
Patch series "add max arg to swappiness in memory.reclaim and lru_gen", v4.

This patchset adds max arg to swappiness in memory.reclaim and lru_gen for
anon only proactive memory reclaim.

With commit <68cd9050d871> ("mm: add swappiness= arg to memory.reclaim")
we can submit an additional swappiness=<val> argument to memory.reclaim. 
It is very useful because we can dynamically adjust the reclamation ratio
based on the anonymous folios and file folios of each cgroup.  For
example,when swappiness is set to 0, we only reclaim from file folios. 
But we can not relciam memory just from anon folios.

This patchset introduces a new macro, SWAPPINESS_ANON_ONLY, defined as
MAX_SWAPPINESS + 1, represent the max arg semantics.  It specifically
indicates that reclamation should occur only from anonymous pages.

Patch 1 adds swappiness=max arg to memory.reclaim suggested-by: Yosry
Ahmed

Patch 2 add more comments for cache_trim_mode from Johannes Weiner in [1].

Patch 3 add max arg to lru_gen for proactive memory reclaim in MGLRU.  The
MGLRU already supports reclaiming exclusively from anonymous pages.  This
patch formalizes that behavior by introducing a max parameter to represent
the corresponding semantics.

Patch 4 using SWAPPINESS_ANON_ONLY in MGLRU Using SWAPPINESS_ANON_ONLY
instead of MAX_SWAPPINESS + 1 to indicate reclaiming only from anonymous
pages makes the code more readable and explicit

This patch (of 4):

With commit <68cd9050d871> ("mm: add swappiness= arg to memory.reclaim")
we can submit an additional swappiness=<val> argument to memory.reclaim. 
It is very useful because we can dynamically adjust the reclamation ratio
based on the anonymous folios and file folios of each cgroup.  For
example,when swappiness is set to 0, we only reclaim from file folios.

However,we have also encountered a new issue: when swappiness is set to
the MAX_SWAPPINESS, it may still only reclaim file folios.

So, we hope to add a new arg 'swappiness=max' in memory.reclaim where
proactive memory reclaim only reclaims from anonymous folios when
swappiness is set to max.  The swappiness semantics from a user
perspective remain unchanged.

For example, something like this:

echo "2M swappiness=max" > /sys/fs/cgroup/memory.reclaim

will perform reclaim on the rootcg with a swappiness setting of 'max' (a
new mode) regardless of the file folios.  Users have a more comprehensive
view of the application's memory distribution because there are many
metrics available.  For example, if we find that a certain cgroup has a
large number of inactive anon folios, we can reclaim only those and skip
file folios, because with the zram/zswap, the IO tradeoff that
cache_trim_mode or other file first logic is making doesn't hold - file
refaults will cause IO, whereas anon decompression will not.

With this patch, the swappiness argument of memory.reclaim has a new
mode 'max', means reclaiming just from anonymous folios both in traditional
LRU and MGLRU.

c8e6002bd6 memcg: introduce non-blocking limit setting option
Setting the max and high limits can trigger synchronous reclaim and/or
oom-kill if the usage is higher than the given limit.  This behavior is
fine for newly created cgroups but it can cause issues for the node
controller while setting limits for existing cgroups.

In our production multi-tenant and overcommitted environment, we are
seeing priority inversion when the node controller dynamically adjusts the
limits of running jobs of different priorities.  Based on the system
situation, the node controller may reduce the limits of lower priority
jobs and increase the limits of higher priority jobs.  However we are
seeing node controller getting stuck for long period of time while
reclaiming from lower priority jobs while setting their limits and also
spends a lot of its own CPU.

One of the workaround we are trying is to fork a new process which sets
the limit of the lower priority job along with setting an alarm to get
itself killed if it get stuck in the reclaim for lower priority job. 
However we are finding it very unreliable and costly.  Either we need a
good enough time buffer for the alarm to be delivered after setting limit
and potentialy spend a lot of CPU in the reclaim or be unreliable in
setting the limit for much shorter but cheaper (less reclaim) alarms.

Let's introduce new limit setting option which does not trigger reclaim
and/or oom-kill and let the processes in the target cgroup to trigger
reclaim and/or throttling and/or oom-kill in their next charge request. 
This will make the node controller on multi-tenant overcommitted
environment much more reliable.

Explanation from Johannes on side-effects of O_NONBLOCK limit change:
  It's usually the allocating tasks inside the group bearing the cost of
  limit enforcement and reclaim. This allows a (privileged) updater from
  outside the group to keep that cost in there - instead of having to
  help, from a context that doesn't necessarily make sense.

  I suppose the tradeoff with that - and the reason why this was doing
  sync reclaim in the first place - is that, if the group is idle and
  not trying to allocate more, it can take indefinitely for the new
  limit to actually be met.

  It should be okay in most scenarios in practice. As the capacity is
  reallocated from group A to B, B will exert pressure on A once it
  tries to claim it and thereby shrink it down. If A is idle, that
  shouldn't be hard. If A is running, it's likely to fault/allocate
  soon-ish and then join the effort.

  It does leave a (malicious) corner case where A is just busy-hitting
  its memory to interfere with the clawback. This is comparable to
  reclaiming memory.low overage from the outside, though, which is an
  acceptable risk. Users of O_NONBLOCK just need to be aware.

247021624a crash: export PAGE_UNACCEPTED_MAPCOUNT_VALUE to vmcoreinfo
On Intel TDX guest, unaccepted memory is unusable free memory which is not
managed by buddy, until it's accepted by guest.  Before that, it cannot be
accessed by the first kernel as well as the kexec'ed kernel.  The kexec'ed
kernel will skip these pages and fill in zero data for the reader of
vmcore.

The dump tool like makedumpfile creates a page descriptor (size 24 bytes)
for each non-free page, including zero data page, but it will not create
descriptor for free pages.  If it is not able to distinguish these
unaccepted pages with zero data pages, a certain amount of space will be
wasted in proportion (~1/170).  In fact, as a special kind of free page
the unaccepted pages should be excluded, like the real free pages.

Export the page type PAGE_UNACCEPTED_MAPCOUNT_VALUE to vmcoreinfo, so that
dump tool can identify whether a page is unaccepted.

a516403787 fs/proc: extend the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl to report guard regions
Patch series "fs/proc: extend the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl to report guard
regions", v2.

Introduce the PAGE_IS_GUARD flag in the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl to expose
information about guard regions.  This allows userspace tools, such as
CRIU, to detect and handle guard regions.

Currently, CRIU utilizes PAGEMAP_SCAN as a more efficient alternative to
parsing /proc/pid/pagemap.  Without this change, guard regions are
incorrectly reported as swap-anon regions, leading CRIU to attempt dumping
them and subsequently failing.

The series includes updates to the documentation and selftests to reflect
the new functionality.

cf42d4cccf zram: modernize writeback interface
The writeback interface supports a page_index=N parameter which performs
writeback of the given page.  Since we rarely need to writeback just one
single page, the typical use case involves a number of writeback calls,
each performing writeback of one page:

  echo page_index=100 > zram0/writeback
  ...
  echo page_index=200 > zram0/writeback
  echo page_index=500 > zram0/writeback
  ...
  echo page_index=700 > zram0/writeback

One obvious downside of this is that it increases the number of syscalls. 
Less obvious, but a significantly more important downside, is that when
given only one page to post-process zram cannot perform an optimal target
selection.  This becomes a critical limitation when writeback_limit is
enabled, because under writeback_limit we want to guarantee the highest
memory savings hence we first need to writeback pages that release the
highest amount of zsmalloc pool memory.

This patch adds page_indexes=LOW-HIGH parameter to the writeback
interface:

  echo page_indexes=100-200 page_indexes=500-700 > zram0/writeback

This gives zram a chance to apply an optimal target selection strategy on
each iteration of the writeback loop.

We also now permit multiple page_index parameters per call (previously
zram would recognize only one page_index) and a mix or single pages and
page ranges:

  echo page_index=42 page_index=99 page_indexes=100-200 \
       page_indexes=500-700 > zram0/writeback

Apart from that the patch also unifies parameters passing and resembles
other "modern" zram device attributes (e.g.  recompression), while the old
interface used a mixed scheme: values-less parameters for mode and a
key=value format for page_index.  We still support the "old" value-less
format for compatibility reasons.

f4818881c4 x86/its: Enable Indirect Target Selection mitigation
Indirect Target Selection (ITS) is a bug in some pre-ADL Intel CPUs with
eIBRS. It affects prediction of indirect branch and RETs in the
lower half of cacheline. Due to ITS such branches may get wrongly predicted
to a target of (direct or indirect) branch that is located in the upper
half of the cacheline.

Scope of impact
===============

Guest/host isolation
--------------------
When eIBRS is used for guest/host isolation, the indirect branches in the
VMM may still be predicted with targets corresponding to branches in the
guest.

Intra-mode
----------
cBPF or other native gadgets can be used for intra-mode training and
disclosure using ITS.

User/kernel isolation
---------------------
When eIBRS is enabled user/kernel isolation is not impacted.

Indirect Branch Prediction Barrier (IBPB)
-----------------------------------------
After an IBPB, indirect branches may be predicted with targets
corresponding to direct branches which were executed prior to IBPB. This is
mitigated by a microcode update.

Add cmdline parameter indirect_target_selection=off|on|force to control the
mitigation to relocate the affected branches to an ITS-safe thunk i.e.
located in the upper half of cacheline. Also add the sysfs reporting.

When retpoline mitigation is deployed, ITS safe-thunks are not needed,
because retpoline sequence is already ITS-safe. Similarly, when call depth
tracking (CDT) mitigation is deployed (retbleed=stuff), ITS safe return
thunk is not used, as CDT prevents RSB-underflow.

To not overcomplicate things, ITS mitigation is not supported with
spectre-v2 lfence;jmp mitigation. Moreover, it is less practical to deploy
lfence;jmp mitigation on ITS affected parts anyways.

4528b90527 xfs: allow sysadmins to specify a maximum atomic write limit at mount time
Introduce a mount option to allow sysadmins to specify the maximum size
of an atomic write.  If the filesystem can work with the supplied value,
that becomes the new guaranteed maximum.

The value mustn't be too big for the existing filesystem geometry (max
write size, max AG/rtgroup size).  We dynamically recompute the
tr_atomic_write transaction reservation based on the given block size,
check that the current log size isn't less than the new minimum log size
constraints, and set a new maximum.

The actual software atomic write max is still computed based off of
tr_atomic_ioend the same way it has for the past few commits.  Note also

118c40b7b5 kbuild: require gcc-8 and binutils-2.30
Commit a3e8fe814a ("x86/build: Raise the minimum GCC version to 8.1")
raised the minimum compiler version as enforced by Kbuild to gcc-8.1
and clang-15 for x86.

This is actually the same gcc version that has been discussed as the
minimum for all architectures several times in the past, with little
objection. A previous concern was the kernel for SLE15-SP7 needing to
be built with gcc-7. As this ended up still using linux-6.4 and there
is no plan for an SP8, this is no longer a problem.

Change it for all architectures and adjust the documentation accordingly.
A few version checks can be removed in the process.  The binutils
version 2.30 is the lowest version used in combination with gcc-8 on
common distros, so use that as the corresponding minimum.

4e2c719782 x86/cpu: Help users notice when running old Intel microcode
Old microcode is bad for users and for kernel developers.

For users, it exposes them to known fixed security and/or functional
issues. These obviously rarely result in instant dumpster fires in
every environment. But it is as important to keep your microcode up
to date as it is to keep your kernel up to date.

Old microcode also makes kernels harder to debug. A developer looking
at an oops need to consider kernel bugs, known CPU issues and unknown
CPU issues as possible causes. If they know the microcode is up to
date, they can mostly eliminate known CPU issues as the cause.

Make it easier to tell if CPU microcode is out of date. Add a list
of released microcode. If the loaded microcode is older than the
release, tell users in a place that folks can find it:

	/sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities/old_microcode

Tell kernel kernel developers about it with the existing taint
flag:

	TAINT_CPU_OUT_OF_SPEC

== Discussion ==

When a user reports a potential kernel issue, it is very common
to ask them to reproduce the issue on mainline. Running mainline,
they will (independently from the distro) acquire a more up-to-date
microcode version list. If their microcode is old, they will
get a warning about the taint and kernel developers can take that
into consideration when debugging.

Just like any other entry in "vulnerabilities/", users are free to
make their own assessment of their exposure.

== Microcode Revision Discussion ==

The microcode versions in the table were generated from the Intel
microcode git repo:

	8ac9378a8487 ("microcode-20241112 Release")

which as of this writing lags behind the latest microcode-20250211.

It can be argued that the versions that the kernel picks to call "old"
should be a revision or two old. Which specific version is picked is
less important to me than picking *a* version and enforcing it.

This repository contains only microcode versions that Intel has deemed
to be OS-loadable. It is quite possible that the BIOS has loaded a
newer microcode than the latest in this repo. If this happens, the
system is considered to have new microcode, not old.

Specifically, the sysfs file and taint flag answer the question:

	Is the CPU running on the latest OS-loadable microcode,
	or something even later that the BIOS loaded?

In other words, Intel never publishes an authoritative list of CPUs
and latest microcode revisions. Until it does, this is the best that
Linux can do.

Also note that the "intel-ucode-defs.h" file is simple, ugly and
has lots of magic numbers. That's on purpose and should allow a
single file to be shared across lots of stable kernel regardless of if
they have the new "VFM" infrastructure or not. It was generated with
a dumb script.

== FAQ ==

Q: Does this tell me if my system is secure or insecure?
A: No. It only tells you if your microcode was old when the
   system booted.

Q: Should the kernel warn if the microcode list itself is too old?
A: No. New kernels will get new microcode lists, both mainline
   and stable. The only way to have an old list is to be running
   an old kernel in which case you have bigger problems.

Q: Is this for security or functional issues?
A: Both.

Q: If a given microcode update only has functional problems but
   no security issues, will it be considered old?
A: Yes. All microcode image versions within a microcode release
   are treated identically. Intel appears to make security
   updates without disclosing them in the release notes.  Thus,
   all updates are considered to be security-relevant.

Q: Who runs old microcode?
A: Anybody with an old distro. This happens all the time inside
   of Intel where there are lots of weird systems in labs that
   might not be getting regular distro updates and might also
   be running rather exotic microcode images.

Q: If I update my microcode after booting will it stop saying
   "Vulnerable"?
A: No. Just like all the other vulnerabilies, you need to
   reboot before the kernel will reassess your vulnerability.

Sphinx has a bug that causes internal hyperlinks declared with
duplicate names to resolve nondeterministically, producing incorrect

duplicate target names are declared.

To improve the reproducibility and correctness of the HTML
documentation, disambiguate two labels both previously titled
"submit_improvements".

845abeb1f0 xfs: add tunable threshold parameter for triggering zone GC
Presently we start garbage collection late - when we start running
out of free zones to backfill max_open_zones. This is a reasonable
default as it minimizes write amplification. The longer we wait,
the more blocks are invalidated and reclaim cost less in terms
of blocks to relocate.

Starting this late however introduces a risk of GC being outcompeted
by user writes. If GC can't keep up, user writes will be forced to
wait for free zones with high tail latencies as a result.

This is not a problem under normal circumstances, but if fragmentation
is bad and user write pressure is high (multiple full-throttle
writers) we will "bottom out" of free zones.

To mitigate this, introduce a zonegc_low_space tunable that lets the
user specify a percentage of how much of the unused space that GC
should keep available for writing. A high value will reclaim more of
the space occupied by unused blocks, creating a larger buffer against
write bursts.

This comes at a cost as write amplification is increased. To
illustrate this using a sample workload, setting zonegc_low_space to
60% avoids high (500ms) max latencies while increasing write
amplification by 15%.

2a63dd0edf net: Retire DCCP socket.
DCCP was orphaned in 2021 by commit 054c4610bd ("MAINTAINERS: dccp:
move Gerrit Renker to CREDITS"), which noted that the last maintainer
had been inactive for five years.

In recent years, it has become a playground for syzbot, and most changes
to DCCP have been odd bug fixes triggered by syzbot.  Apart from that,
the only changes have been driven by treewide or networking API updates
or adjustments related to TCP.

Thus, in 2023, we announced we would remove DCCP in 2025 via commit
b144fcaf46 ("dccp: Print deprecation notice.").

Since then, only one individual has contacted the netdev mailing list. [0]

There is ongoing research for Multipath DCCP.  The repository is hosted
on GitHub [1], and development is not taking place through the upstream
community.  While the repository is published under the GPLv2 license,
the scheduling part remains proprietary, with a LICENSE file [2] stating:

  "This is not Open Source software."

The researcher mentioned a plan to address the licensing issue, upstream
the patches, and step up as a maintainer, but there has been no further
communication since then.

Maintaining DCCP for a decade without any real users has become a burden.

Therefore, it's time to remove it.

Removing DCCP will also provide significant benefits to TCP.  It allows
us to freely reorganize the layout of struct inet_connection_sock, which
is currently shared with DCCP, and optimize it to reduce the number of
cachelines accessed in the TCP fast path.

Note that we keep DCCP netfilter modules as requested.  [3]
