- The 3 patch series "hung_task: extend blocking task stacktrace dump to
semaphore" from Lance Yang enhances the hung task detector. The
detector presently dumps the blocking tasks's stack when it is blocked
on a mutex. Lance's series extends this to semaphores.
- The 2 patch series "nilfs2: improve sanity checks in dirty state
propagation" from Wentao Liang addresses a couple of minor flaws in
nilfs2.
- The 2 patch series "scripts/gdb: Fixes related to lx_per_cpu()" from
Illia Ostapyshyn fixes a couple of issues in the gdb scripts.
- The 9 patch series "Support kdump with LUKS encryption by reusing LUKS
volume keys" from Coiby Xu addresses a usability problem with kdump.
When the dump device is LUKS-encrypted, the kdump kernel may not have
the keys to the encrypted filesystem. A full writeup of this is in the
series [0/N] cover letter.
- The 2 patch series "sysfs: add counters for lockups and stalls" from
Max Kellermann adds /sys/kernel/hardlockup_count and
/sys/kernel/hardlockup_count and /sys/kernel/rcu_stall_count.
- The 3 patch series "fork: Page operation cleanups in the fork code"
from Pasha Tatashin implements a number of code cleanups in fork.c.
- The 3 patch series "scripts/gdb/symbols: determine KASLR offset on
s390 during early boot" from Ilya Leoshkevich fixes some s390 issues in
the gdb scripts.

OpenRISC updates for 6.15
This is a bit late as I was on holiday, but as there are no huge
structural changes I hope it's OK to include mid release cycle.
- Support for cacheinfo API to expose OpenRISC cache info via sysfs,
this also translated to some cleanups to OpenRISC cache flush and
invalidate API's
- Documentation updates for new mailing list and toolchain binaries

The old development toolchain binaries were hosted in the or1k-gcc development github repo release page. However, now that we have all code upstream I cut releases from stable upstream tarballs. It does not make sense to tag the or1k-gcc github repo releases for these stable releases.

The various patchsets are summarized below. Plus of course many
indivudual patches which are described in their changelogs. - "Allocate and free frozen pages" from Matthew Wilcox reorganizes the page allocator so we end up with the ability to allocate and free zero-refcount pages. So that callers (ie, slab) can avoid a refcount inc & dec. - "Support large folios for tmpfs" from Baolin Wang teaches tmpfs to use large folios other than PMD-sized ones. - "Fix mm/rodata_test" from Petr Tesarik performs some maintenance and fixes for this small built-in kernel selftest. - "mas_anode_descend() related cleanup" from Wei Yang tidies up part of the mapletree code. - "mm: fix format issues and param types" from Keren Sun implements a few minor code cleanups. - "simplify split calculation" from Wei Yang provides a few fixes and a test for the mapletree code. - "mm/vma: make more mmap logic userland testable" from Lorenzo Stoakes continues the work of moving vma-related code into the (relatively) new mm/vma.c. - "mm/page_alloc: gfp flags cleanups for alloc_contig_*()" from David Hildenbrand cleans up and rationalizes handling of gfp flags in the page allocator. - "readahead: Reintroduce fix for improper RA window sizing" from Jan Kara is a second attempt at fixing a readahead window sizing issue. It should reduce the amount of unnecessary reading. - "synchronously scan and reclaim empty user PTE pages" from Qi Zheng addresses an issue where "huge" amounts of pte pagetables are accumulated (https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/cover.1718267194.git.zhengqi.arch@bytedance.com/). Qi's series addresses this windup by synchronously freeing PTE memory within the context of madvise(MADV_DONTNEED). - "selftest/mm: Remove warnings found by adding compiler flags" from Muhammad Usama Anjum fixes some build warnings in the selftests code when optional compiler warnings are enabled. - "mm: don't use __GFP_HARDWALL when migrating remote pages" from David Hildenbrand tightens the allocator's observance of __GFP_HARDWALL. - "pkeys kselftests improvements" from Kevin Brodsky implements various fixes and cleanups in the MM selftests code, mainly pertaining to the pkeys tests. - "mm/damon: add sample modules" from SeongJae Park enhances DAMON to estimate application working set size. - "memcg/hugetlb: Rework memcg hugetlb charging" from Joshua Hahn provides some cleanups to memcg's hugetlb charging logic. - "mm/swap_cgroup: remove global swap cgroup lock" from Kairui Song removes the global swap cgroup lock. A speedup of 10% for a tmpfs-based kernel build was demonstrated. - "zram: split page type read/write handling" from Sergey Senozhatsky has several fixes and cleaups for zram in the area of zram_write_page(). A watchdog softlockup warning was eliminated. - "move pagetable_*_dtor() to __tlb_remove_table()" from Kevin Brodsky cleans up the pagetable destructor implementations. A rare use-after-free race is fixed. - "mm/debug: introduce and use VM_WARN_ON_VMG()" from Lorenzo Stoakes simplifies and cleans up the debugging code in the VMA merging logic. - "Account page tables at all levels" from Kevin Brodsky cleans up and regularizes the pagetable ctor/dtor handling. This results in improvements in accounting accuracy. - "mm/damon: replace most damon_callback usages in sysfs with new core functions" from SeongJae Park cleans up and generalizes DAMON's sysfs file interface logic. - "mm/damon: enable page level properties based monitoring" from SeongJae Park increases the amount of information which is presented in response to DAMOS actions. - "mm/damon: remove DAMON debugfs interface" from SeongJae Park removes DAMON's long-deprecated debugfs interfaces. Thus the migration to sysfs is completed. - "mm/hugetlb: Refactor hugetlb allocation resv accounting" from Peter Xu cleans up and generalizes the hugetlb reservation accounting. - "mm: alloc_pages_bulk: small API refactor" from Luiz Capitulino removes a never-used feature of the alloc_pages_bulk() interface. - "mm/damon: extend DAMOS filters for inclusion" from SeongJae Park extends DAMOS filters to support not only exclusion (rejecting), but also inclusion (allowing) behavior. - "Add zpdesc memory descriptor for zswap.zpool" from Alex Shi "introduces a new memory descriptor for zswap.zpool that currently overlaps with struct page for now. This is part of the effort to reduce the size of struct page and to enable dynamic allocation of memory descriptors." - "mm, swap: rework of swap allocator locks" from Kairui Song redoes and simplifies the swap allocator locking. A speedup of 400% was demonstrated for one workload. As was a 35% reduction for kernel build time with swap-on-zram. - "mm: update mips to use do_mmap(), make mmap_region() internal" from Lorenzo Stoakes reworks MIPS's use of mmap_region() so that mmap_region() can be made MM-internal. - "mm/mglru: performance optimizations" from Yu Zhao fixes a few MGLRU regressions and otherwise improves MGLRU performance. - "Docs/mm/damon: add tuning guide and misc updates" from SeongJae Park updates DAMON documentation. - "Cleanup for memfd_create()" from Isaac Manjarres does that thing. - "mm: hugetlb+THP folio and migration cleanups" from David Hildenbrand provides various cleanups in the areas of hugetlb folios, THP folios and migration. - "Uncached buffered IO" from Jens Axboe implements the new RWF_DONTCACHE flag which provides synchronous dropbehind for pagecache reading and writing. To permite userspace to address issues with massive buildup of useless pagecache when reading/writing fast devices. - "selftests/mm: virtual_address_range: Reduce memory" from Thomas Weißschuh fixes and optimizes some of the MM selftests. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iHUEABYKAB0WIQTTMBEPP41GrTpTJgfdBJ7gKXxAjgUCZ5a+cwAKCRDdBJ7gKXxA jtoyAP9R58oaOKPJuTizEKKXvh/RpMyD6sYcz/uPpnf+cKTZxQEAqfVznfWlw/Lz uC3KRZYhmd5YrxU4o+qjbzp9XWX/xAE= =Ib2s -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'mm-stable-2025-01-26-14-59' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton: "The various patchsets are summarized below.

Docs/translations/*/admin-guide/mm/damon/usage: remove DAMON debugfs interface documentation
Patch series "mm/damon: remove DAMON debugfs interface". DAMON debugfs interface was the only user interface of DAMON at the beginning[1]. However, it turned out the interface would be not good enough for long-term flexibility and stability. In Feb 2022[2], we therefore introduced DAMON sysfs interface as an alternative user interface that aims long-term flexibility and stability. With its introduction, DAMON debugfs interface has announced to be deprecated in near future. In Feb 2023[3], we announced the official deprecation of DAMON debugfs interface. In Jan 2024[4], we further made the deprecation difficult to be ignored. In Oct 2024[5], we posted an RFC version of this patch series as the last notice. And as of this writing, no problem or concerns about the removal plan have reported. Apparently users are already moved to the alternative, or made good plans for the change. Remove the DAMON debugfs interface code from the tree. Given the past timeline and the absence of reported problems or concerns, it is safe enough to be done.

Read the cover letter of this patch sereis for more details. Remove DAMON debugfs interface usage documentation and references to it from translations, to avoid confusing users with documents for already removed things.

- The series "zram: optimal post-processing target selection" from
Sergey Senozhatsky improves zram's post-processing selection algorithm.
This leads to improved memory savings.
- Wei Yang has gone to town on the mapletree code, contributing several
series which clean up the implementation:
- "refine mas_mab_cp()"
- "Reduce the space to be cleared for maple_big_node"
- "maple_tree: simplify mas_push_node()"
- "Following cleanup after introduce mas_wr_store_type()"
- "refine storing null"
- The series "selftests/mm: hugetlb_fault_after_madv improvements" from
David Hildenbrand fixes this selftest for s390.
- The series "introduce pte_offset_map_{ro|rw}_nolock()" from Qi Zheng
implements some rationaizations and cleanups in the page mapping code.
- The series "mm: optimize shadow entries removal" from Shakeel Butt
optimizes the file truncation code by speeding up the handling of shadow
entries.
- The series "Remove PageKsm()" from Matthew Wilcox completes the
migration of this flag over to being a folio-based flag.
- The series "Unify hugetlb into arch_get_unmapped_area functions" from
Oscar Salvador implements a bunch of consolidations and cleanups in the
hugetlb code.
- The series "Do not shatter hugezeropage on wp-fault" from Dev Jain
takes away the wp-fault time practice of turning a huge zero page into
small pages. Instead we replace the whole thing with a THP. More
consistent cleaner and potentiall saves a large number of pagefaults.

- The series "damon/{self,kunit}tests: minor fixups for DAMON debugfs
interface tests" from Andrew Paniakin performs maintenance work for
DAMON's self testing code.

docs: remove Documentation/dontdiff
The dontdiff file is a relic from the pre-Git era that has little use now. It has entries (parse.c, for example) that will mask real changes to kernel source files. There are all kinds of entries for files we do not create anymore. Rather than try to fix it up, simply remove it. Update the kernel documentation (and translations) to remove references to this file. There is an ancient Japanese translation of SubmittingPatches that I am unable to update; that really needs a thorough redo.

Docs/damon: use damonitor GitHub organization instead of awslabs
Patch series "Docs/damon: update GitHub repo URLs and maintainer-profile". Replace GitHub URLS on DAMON documents for none-kernel parts DAMON repos with new ones[1] via the first patch. With following two patches, wordsmith maitnainer-profile for better readability, and document the Google clendsar for bi-weekly meetups, respectively. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/20240813232158.83903-1-sj@kernel.org This patch (of 3): GitHub repos for non-kernel parts of DAMON project including 'damo', 'damon-tests' and 'damoos' will be moved[1] from 'awslabs' org to 'damonitor', by 2024-09-05.

docs/zh_CN: update the translation of security-bugs

cf05e93af4 |
Nothing hugely exciting happening in the documentation tree this time
around, mostly more of the usual:
- More Spanish, Italian, and Chinese translations
- A new script, scripts/checktransupdate.py, can be used to see which
commits have touched an (English) document since a given translation was
last updated.
- A couple of "best practices" suggestions (on Link: tags and off-list
discussions) that were not entirely at consensus level, but I concluded
they were close enough to accept.
- Some nice cleanups removing documentation for kernel parameters that have
not been recognized for ... a long time.
...along with the usual updates, typo fixes, and such.

- Sumanth Korikkar has taught s390 to allocate hotplug-time page frames
from hotplugged memory rather than only from main memory. Series
"implement "memmap on memory" feature on s390".
- More folio conversions from Matthew Wilcox in the series
"Convert memcontrol charge moving to use folios"
"mm: convert mm counter to take a folio"
- Chengming Zhou has optimized zswap's rbtree locking, providing
significant reductions in system time and modest but measurable
reductions in overall runtimes. The series is "mm/zswap: optimize the
scalability of zswap rb-tree".
- Chengming Zhou has also provided the series "mm/zswap: optimize zswap
lru list" which provides measurable runtime benefits in some
swap-intensive situations.
- And Chengming Zhou further optimizes zswap in the series "mm/zswap:
optimize for dynamic zswap_pools". Measured improvements are modest.
- zswap cleanups and simplifications from Yosry Ahmed in the series "mm:
zswap: simplify zswap_swapoff()".
- In the series "Add DAX ABI for memmap_on_memory", Vishal Verma has
contributed several DAX cleanups as well as adding a sysfs tunable to
control the memmap_on_memory setting when the dax device is hotplugged
as system memory.
- Johannes Weiner has added the large series "mm: zswap: cleanups",
which does that.
- More DAMON work from SeongJae Park in the series
"mm/damon: make DAMON debugfs interface deprecation unignorable"
"selftests/damon: add more tests for core functionalities and corner cases"
"Docs/mm/damon: misc readability improvements"
"mm/damon: let DAMOS feeds and tame/auto-tune itself"
- In the series "mm/mempolicy: weighted interleave mempolicy and sysfs
extension" Rakie Kim has developed a new mempolicy interleaving policy
wherein we allocate memory across nodes in a weighted fashion rather
than uniformly. This is beneficial in heterogeneous memory environments
appearing with CXL.
- Christophe Leroy has contributed some cleanup and consolidation work
against the ARM pagetable dumping code in the series "mm: ptdump:
Refactor CONFIG_DEBUG_WX and check_wx_pages debugfs attribute".
- Luis Chamberlain has added some additional xarray selftesting in the
series "test_xarray: advanced API multi-index tests".
- Muhammad Usama Anjum has reworked the selftest code to make its
human-readable output conform to the TAP ("Test Anything Protocol")
format. Amongst other things, this opens up the use of third-party
tools to parse and process out selftesting results.
- Ryan Roberts has added fork()-time PTE batching of THP ptes in the
series "mm/memory: optimize fork() with PTE-mapped THP". Mainly
targeted at arm64, this significantly speeds up fork() when the process
has a large number of pte-mapped folios.
- David Hildenbrand also gets in on the THP pte batching game in his
series "mm/memory: optimize unmap/zap with PTE-mapped THP". It
implements batching during munmap() and other pte teardown situations.
The microbenchmark improvements are nice.
- And in the series "Transparent Contiguous PTEs for User Mappings" Ryan
Roberts further utilizes arm's pte's contiguous bit ("contpte
mappings"). Kernel build times on arm64 improved nicely. Ryan's series
"Address some contpte nits" provides some followup work.
- In the series "mm/hugetlb: Restore the reservation" Breno Leitao has
fixed an obscure hugetlb race which was causing unnecessary page faults.
He has also added a reproducer under the selftest code.
- In the series "selftests/mm: Output cleanups for the compaction test",
Mark Brown did what the title claims.
- Kinsey Ho has added the series "mm/mglru: code cleanup and refactoring".
- Even more zswap material from Nhat Pham. The series "fix and extend
zswap kselftests" does as claimed.
- In the series "Introduce cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() to fix DAX
regression" Mathieu Desnoyers has cleaned up and fixed rather a mess in
our handling of DAX on archiecctures which have virtually aliasing data
caches. The arm architecture is the main beneficiary.
- Lokesh Gidra's series "per-vma locks in userfaultfd" provides dramatic
improvements in worst-case mmap_lock hold times during certain
userfaultfd operations.
- Some page_owner enhancements and maintenance work from Oscar Salvador
in his series
"page_owner: print stacks and their outstanding allocations"
"page_owner: Fixup and cleanup"
- Uladzislau Rezki has contributed some vmalloc scalability improvements
in his series "Mitigate a vmap lock contention". It realizes a 12x
improvement for a certain microbenchmark.
- Some kexec/crash cleanup work from Baoquan He in the series "Split
crash out from kexec and clean up related config items".
- Some zsmalloc maintenance work from Chengming Zhou in the series
"mm/zsmalloc: fix and optimize objects/page migration"
"mm/zsmalloc: some cleanup for get/set_zspage_mapping()"
- Zi Yan has taught the MM to perform compaction on folios larger than
order=0. This a step along the path to implementaton of the merging of
large anonymous folios. The series is named "Enable >0 order folio
memory compaction".
- Christoph Hellwig has done quite a lot of cleanup work in the
pagecache writeback code in his series "convert write_cache_pages() to
an iterator".
- Some modest hugetlb cleanups and speedups in Vishal Moola's series
"Handle hugetlb faults under the VMA lock".
- Zi Yan has changed the page splitting code so we can split huge pages
into sizes other than order-0 to better utilize large folios. The
series is named "Split a folio to any lower order folios".
- David Hildenbrand has contributed the series "mm: remove
total_mapcount()", a cleanup.
- Matthew Wilcox has sought to improve the performance of bulk memory
freeing in his series "Rearrange batched folio freeing".
- Gang Li's series "hugetlb: parallelize hugetlb page init on boot"
provides large improvements in bootup times on large machines which are
configured to use large numbers of hugetlb pages.
- Matthew Wilcox's series "PageFlags cleanups" does that.
- Qi Zheng's series "minor fixes and supplement for ptdesc" does that
also. S390 is affected.
- Cleanups to our pagemap utility functions from Peter Xu in his series
"mm/treewide: Replace pXd_large() with pXd_leaf()".
- Nico Pache has fixed a few things with our hugepage selftests in his
series "selftests/mm: Improve Hugepage Test Handling in MM Selftests".
- Also, of course, many singleton patches to many things. Please see
the individual changelogs for details.

Another moderately busy cycle for documentation, including:
- The minimum Sphinx requirement has been raised to 2.4.4, following a
warning that was added in 6.2.
- Some reworking of the Documentation/process front page to, hopefully,
make it more useful.
- Various kernel-doc tweaks to, for example, make it deal properly with
__counted_by annotations.
- We have also restored a warning for documentation of nonexistent
structure members that disappeared a while back. That had the delightful
consequence of adding some 600 warnings to the docs build. A sustained
effort by Randy, Vegard, and myself has addressed almost all of those,
bringing the documentation back into sync with the code. The fixes are
going through the appropriate maintainer trees.
- Various improvements to the HTML rendered docs, including automatic links
to Git revisions and a nice new pulldown to make translations easy to
access.
- Speaking of translations, more of those for Spanish and Chinese.
...plus the usual stream of documentation updates and typo fixes.

docs: kernel_feat.py: fix potential command injection
The kernel-feat directive passes its argument straight to the shell.
This is unfortunate and unnecessary.
Let's always use paths relative to $srctree/Documentation/ and use
subprocess.check_call() instead of subprocess.Popen(shell=True).
This also makes the code shorter.
This is analogous to commit

Consequently carry out improvements in order to both keep track of sources
and fix several grammatical mistakes in traditional Chinese.
This is a thorough rewrite of the previous patch:
