2026-10-07riscv: fix load_unaligned_zeropad() fixup for RV32Karl Mehltretter1-2/+2
The fixup for load_unaligned_zeropad() runs when REG_L crosses into an unmapped page. REG_L is lw on RV32 and ld on RV64, but the fixup assumes an 8-byte load: it rounds the address down to 8 bytes and derives the shift from three address bits. On RV32, a load starting in the last three bytes of a mapped page selects the word four bytes earlier and shifts it by 40, 48, or 56 bits, more than the register width. The caller gets earlier bytes instead of the string tail followed by zeroes. This affects RV32 MMU kernels built with RISCV_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS=y, which selects DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS and lets dcache name hashing and comparison and strscpy() use this path. Derive the alignment and offset masks from sizeof(data) instead of a fixed 8. This makes RV32 use the correct source word. RV64 code is unchanged: the complete extable.o is byte-for-byte identical before and after.

2026-10-07riscv: entry: gate shadow call stack reload on sstatus.SPP, not tpZiyi Guo2-5/+14
Under CONFIG_SHADOW_CALL_STACK, handle_exception() reloads the kernel shadow call stack pointer (gp) only when the trap came from userspace. It made that decision with scs_load_current_if_task_changed, which compares the trap-time tp (read back from sscratch into s5) against the current tp: beq \prev, tp, _skip_scs scs_load_current _skip_scs: tp is a user-writable register. A user task that sets tp to the linear-map address of its own task_struct (&current) before trapping makes the comparison succeed (can achieve by brute force with KASLR enable under our test), so the kernel skips scs_load_current and keeps running with the gp that userspace left in place. Under CONFIG_SHADOW_CALL_STACK gp is the shadow call stack pointer and load_global_pointer is a no-op, so the compiler-emitted "sd ra, -8(gp)" / "ld ra, -8(gp)" in every non-leaf function then write to, and return through, an attacker-controlled address -- an unprivileged kernel arbitrary-write and control-flow-hijack primitive. The poisoned gp is saved to task_struct.scs_sp on return, so the reload is skipped on every subsequent entry as well. Decide "came from userspace" from the hardware sstatus.SPP bit (already in s1 at this point) instead of from tp, mirroring the check that ret_from_exception already uses a few instructions later. SPP is written by hardware on trap entry and cannot be forged from U-mode. Legitimate behaviour is unchanged: user entries (SPP=0) reload the task shadow call stack, nested kernel entries (SPP=1) skip it.

2026-10-07riscv: fix NR_CPUS range leaking 64-bit default onto 32-bit buildsLeo Yu-Chi Liang1-2/+3
rv32_defconfig is built in two stages: - the generic (64-bit-oriented) "defconfig" target runs first and resolves a concrete NR_CPUS value using the 64BIT default. - then 32-bit.config is merged on top via merge_config.sh, which does not touch NR_CPUS. The final "make olddefconfig" pass sees NR_CPUS=256 is still within the "2 512" range therefore never recalculates it against the 32BIT default of 32, silently keeping the leaked 64-bit-stage value. The NR_CPUS-scaled regions (percpu areas, ...etc) of the resulting CONFIG_NR_CPUS=256 on a 32-bit build bloats and does not fit in the percpu/stack layout for rv32 and hangs early boot on QEMU's virt machine. Fix this by explicitly specify the range for 32/64 and SBI_V01/!SBI_V01.

2026-10-07riscv: errata: select RISCV_ALTERNATIVE_EARLY for THEAD GHOSTWRITEZongmin Zhou1-0/+1
errata_probe_ghostwrite() only marks the CPU as vulnerable when it is called at the RISCV_ALTERNATIVES_EARLY_BOOT stage, and the mitigation in ghostwrite_enable_mitigation() only takes effect if the vulnerable state was recorded before the boot alternatives are patched. The early boot stage is only executed when CONFIG_RISCV_ALTERNATIVE_EARLY is enabled, which currently is only selected by ERRATA_THEAD_MAE. In a kernel built with ERRATA_THEAD_GHOSTWRITE=y but ERRATA_THEAD_MAE=n, the early alternatives never run, so ghostwrite_state is never set to VULNERABLE: ghostwrite_enable_mitigation() returns false, xtheadvector remains enabled, and sysfs reports "Not affected" on a vulnerable T-Head C9xx CPU. Select RISCV_ALTERNATIVE_EARLY from ERRATA_THEAD_GHOSTWRITE so that the vulnerability is detected in the early boot stage and the default mitigation is applied.

2026-10-07riscv: futex: untag the user pointer before the atomic accessZiyi Guo1-0/+2
access_ok() checks untagged_addr(uaddr), but arch_futex_atomic_op_inuser() and futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() hand the raw uaddr to the inline asm amoswap/amoadd/.../lr.w+sc.w through the "+m" (*uaddr) operand. When the tagged address ABI is enabled (CONFIG_RISCV_ISA_SUPM, prctl PR_SET_TAGGED_ADDR_CTRL with PMLEN != 0), those two addresses differ: a user pointer whose top PMLEN bits hold a tag passes access_ok() after untagging, but the atomic is then performed on the still-tagged raw address. Supervisor-mode data accesses are not subject to the U-mode pointer masking (that is governed by menvcfg.PMM, which the kernel does not set), so hardware does not strip the tag for the kernel's own access. With Sv57 and PMLEN=16 the tag bits overlap the canonical-address bits, so a tagged pointer can name a canonical kernel virtual address (e.g. in the linear map) whose untagged form is a valid user address. An unprivileged process can thus make FUTEX_WAKE_OP perform an atomic read-modify-write on an arbitrary kernel address, with the matching FUTEX_OP_CMP_* result serving as a read oracle. get_user()/put_user()/raw_copy_{to,from}_user() already untag the pointer after the access_ok() check; do the same in the futex helpers so the atomic operates on the address that was actually validated.

2026-10-05riscv: lib: Fix ZBB strnlen wrap-around regression on huge countsShao Mingyin1-2/+18
The aligned scan boundary is derived from the last valid byte, (s + count - 1). When count is huge (e.g. SIZE_MAX, which FORTIFY strcat/strlcat pass when the destination size is not known at compile time), s + count wraps around and the boundary lands before s, so the ZBB path returns a bogus length. The original implementation (5ba15d419fab) had the same wrap-around in its (s + count) & ~7 boundary computation; after 5d588c684833 the wrapped boundary is caught by the pre-loop guard "bgeu t0, t4, 2f", which then always exits for aligned strings of 8 or more characters and strnlen() returns 8 instead of the real length. This silently truncates strings built by fortified strcat: the dm sysfs name attribute shows "live-bas" instead of "live-base", the truncated name pollutes the udev database, and blivet/anaconda (as well as LVM/dm-crypt/multipath userspace) break on RISC-V systems. Detect the wrap-around and saturate the boundary to the top of the address space, making the scan equivalent to strlen(). The saturation clamps the increment to ~s, so it stays branchless and wrap-free: s + min(count - 1, ~s) == saturating_add(s, count - 1) Normal counts are unaffected.

2026-10-05riscv: patch: fix handling of bpf-jit execmem addressesWei-Jie Hung1-1/+1
Commit 8718e5a3090b ("riscv: patch: skip fixmap mapping when kernel text is already writable") gated the core_kernel_text() branch of patch_map() on CONFIG_STRICT_KERNEL_RWX, and explicitly left the vmalloc branch unchanged. That branch has a separate problem. That branch only creates a temporary writable fixmap alias when CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX is enabled, and otherwise assumes the target is directly writable and returns the address unchanged. That assumption no longer holds: bpf_prog_pack_alloc calls set_memory_rox() on every pack unconditionally in alloc_new_pack(), independently of any CONFIG_STRICT_*_RWX option, so BPF text in the vmalloc area is read-only regardless of what CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX says. With CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX=n, patch_map() returns the read-only address directly, the subsequent copy_to_kernel_nofault() takes a page fault and returns -EFAULT. bpf_arch_text_copy() turns that into -EINVAL, which propagates through bpf_jit_binary_pack_finalize() to the WARN_ON() in bpf_int_jit_compile() and leaves the program un-JITed. Note that BPF cannot be fixed the way kprobes was in commit bdc46e507b59 ("riscv: mm: make EXECMEM_KPROBES writable without CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX"). EXECMEM_BPF is already PAGE_KERNEL, i.e. writable at allocation time; the read-only mapping is established afterwards by generic code in alloc_new_pack(), which arch code cannot influence. The only place this can be handled is patch_map(). This is the same problem that was fixed on arm64 by commit b1480ed230ac ("arm64: patching: fix handling of execmem addresses"), and the fix is the same: CONFIG_EXECMEM is what actually tracks whether the vmalloc area can hold executable memory that needs a temporary alias to be written. CONFIG_BPF_JIT, CONFIG_KPROBES and CONFIG_MODULES all select it. Note that this is not limited to CONFIG_MODULES=n. Unlike arm64, riscv selects CONFIG_ARCH_OPTIONAL_KERNEL_RWX, so CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX can be disabled with CONFIG_MODULES=y as well, and the bug is reachable in that configuration too. The !CONFIG_MMU build is unaffected: it has its own __patch_insn_set() and __patch_insn_write() implementations and never calls patch_map().

After a recent change in LLVM [1], builds with the random vDSO implementation, such as PowerPC and RISC-V, fail when checking the vDSO: arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso/vdso32.so.dbg: dynamic relocations are not supported arch/riscv/kernel/vdso/vdso.so.dbg: dynamic relocations are not supported memset() is now generated when zeroing params->reserved for some builds because LLVM has an optimization (now run in more instances) that can recognize at compile time when it is assigning a static value to a contiguous area of memory and turn that into a call to memset(). Both clang and GCC assume memset() is always available [2]. Clang has an internal fiddly hook, -max-store-memset, which we can set to a high number, to disable generating out of line memset calls [3]. Similarly, GCC has -finline-stringops=memset to do the same [4], should this issue ever hit future version of GCC. While these options wouldn't make sense for normal kernel code, it is fine for the extremely limited and intentionally compact vDSO code.

2026-09-29bpf: Skip detached progs in trampoline images that are still in useFlorent Revest (Anthropic)1-17/+39
bpf_tramp_image_put() makes sure a trampoline image is not freed while a task may still be running in it, but nothing similar is done for the progs called by that image. Detach drops the last prog reference right away and the prog is freed after grace periods, on the basis that a task still in the traced function skips the fexit progs once the nop at ip_after_call is patched to a jump. That leaves out a task sleeping in a sleepable prog that runs before the detached one, which no grace period waits for: CPU 0 CPU 1 in image I, sleeping in prog S detach P from I's trampoline -> new image, bpf_tramp_image_put(I) bpf_prog_put(P), last ref grace periods, P freed back from S __bpf_prog_enter(P) call P->bpf_func If S and P are fexit progs the task is already past the patched jump, and fentry only images don't have one. On x86 this is an int3 in poisoned bpf_prog_pack memory: Oops: int3: 0000 [#1] SMP NOPTI CPU: 18 UID: 0 PID: 94573 Comm: x169 Not tainted 6.18.44 #1 PREEMPT(lazy) RIP: 0010:0xffffffffc0601d8d Call Trace: <TASK> ? bpf_trampoline_6442515411+0x1a4/0x21b bpf_lsm_bprm_committed_creds+0x5/0x10 security_bprm_committed_creds+0x5f/0x70 begin_new_exec+0x2d6/0x410 ... We hit this in production when progs attached through trampolines got detached while their hooks were busy, and it was independently found with a fuzzer and KASAN. Have the JITs emit a patchable nop in front of each prog call sequence and record it in the image. When a prog is detached, patch its nop to a jump over the call sequence. Progs that stay attached keep running for the tasks that are in the image, and ip_after_call isn't needed anymore. The task can be in any image that isn't freed yet, not only in the current one. It sleeps in image I1 that calls S, P and Q, then P is detached and the trampoline moves to image I2, then Q is detached and its call is still in I1. So the trampoline keeps a list of its images until they are freed, and detaching a prog patches its nop in all of them. Images hold a reference on the trampoline for that long. On riscv and loongarch a jump of any range takes several instructions, and a task preempted in the middle of them could resume into half of the new sequence. The nop is a single instruction there, patched to a near branch through arch_bpf_trampoline_skip(). With the extra nops, BPF_MAX_TRAMP_LINKS progs no longer fit in a page on x86 and arm64 (and already didn't on powerpc), so lower the limit there like s390 does.

2026-09-15RISC-V: KVM: Fix sdata leak and stale snapshot_addr in snapshot_set_shmemZongmin Zhou1-0/+8
A guest may call SBI_PMU_SNAPSHOT_SET_SHMEM repeatedly. Each call overwrites kvpmu->sdata without freeing the old buffer (memory leak), and if a later kvm_vcpu_write_guest() fails, the error path frees sdata but leaves snapshot_addr stale. A subsequent SBI_PMU_COUNTER_START then passes the INVALID_GPA check and crashes the host with a NULL buffer in kvm_vcpu_read_guest(). Fix this by clearing the previously installed snapshot area before installing a new one, which keeps sdata and snapshot_addr consistent. The SBI spec suggests a single invocation but defines no error code for repeated calls, so KVM must tolerate them.

2026-09-15RISC-V: KVM: Synchronize hrtimer callback during teardownMyeonghun Pak1-1/+4
The non-Sstc hrtimer callback clears next_set before its final uses of the enclosing vCPU. If teardown observes next_set as false while the callback is still running, kvm_riscv_vcpu_timer_cancel() skips hrtimer_cancel() and kvm_destroy_vcpus() can free the vCPU before the callback enters kvm_riscv_vcpu_set_interrupt(). A guest can arm the timer with SBI TIME and request shutdown with SBI legacy shutdown or SRST. A VMM that honors KVM_EXIT_SYSTEM_EVENT and destroys the VM supplies the teardown side of the race; no post-launch host ioctl is needed to arm or request teardown. On upstream master 62cc90241548, generic KASAN reported: BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in do_raw_spin_lock Write of size 4 at addr ff60000005e58898 kvm_riscv_vcpu_set_interrupt kvm_riscv_vcpu_hrtimer_expired __hrtimer_run_queues hrtimer_interrupt The object was allocated by KVM_CREATE_VCPU and freed concurrently by: kvm_destroy_vcpus kvm_arch_destroy_vm kvm_destroy_vm __fput For deterministic validation, I added mdelay(1000) immediately after the existing next_set = false assignment. This only widens the existing post-clear callback window. A no-delay trace build naturally reached the callback-after-teardown-start/before-deinit ordering in 12 of 200 runs, but 1,500 stock-kernel stress iterations did not produce a KASAN report, so natural reproduction is timing-sensitive. Always invoke hrtimer_cancel() for an initialized timer. Preserve the existing -EINVAL result when the timer is no longer set, but only after synchronizing with a running callback. With this patch, hrtimer_cancel() blocked for the full widened callback window before vCPU destruction. KASAN reported no error in 100 fixed-and-widened runs or 200 fix-only timing-sweep runs.

When the irq-mux and its interrupt-map were added to the mpfs devicetree, the gpio interrupts became fixed at the SoC level rather than dependant on the design - the interrupt-map is now what varies. The beaglev-fire should have had its dts copy of the interrupts removed but did not. As a result, the mcp3564 driver does not probe, because even though it doesn't use the interrupt at present, the SPI core still looks it up. This lookup fails because the second copy of the interrupts property doesn't resolve to something valid when passed via the interrupt-map. Remove the second/incorrect set of interrupts properties.

The arena range tree allocates its nodes with kmalloc_nolock() since commit f8c67d8550ee ("bpf: Use kmalloc_nolock() in range tree"). kmalloc_nolock() requires slab caches with cmpxchg128 support (__CMPXCHG_DOUBLE); on riscv cmpxchg128 is provided by the ZACAS extension. On systems without ZACAS every arena map creation fails with a misleading -ENOMEM. Report the missing support instead: make bpf_jit_supports_arena() return system_has_cmpxchg128() where it is defined, so arena map creation fails with -EOPNOTSUPP on systems without ZACAS. The macro is only defined when both CONFIG_RISCV_ISA_ZACAS and CONFIG_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_ZACAS are enabled, so guard it with #ifdef the same way mm/slab.h consumes it, and reject arena otherwise.

Platforms that declare just "zfh" (Zfh being a superset that already contains all Zfhmin instructions) therefore report RISCV_HWPROBE_EXT_ZFHMIN=0, which breaks userspace RVA23 conformance checks (e.g. snapd installing core26 on riscv64). Use the existing superset mechanism to set the implied subset bits: - zfh implies zfhmin - zvfh implies zvfhmin Add a hwprobe selftest asserting the implication holds and update the hwprobe documentation accordingly. This is complementary to the rva23u64 base behavior discussion: the RVA23 conformance query proposed there is derived from the per-extension bits fixed here, so correct EXT_0 reporting is a prerequisite for it to work on harts whose device tree declares only "zfh". Tested on a RISC-V QEMU VM whose device tree only declares "zfh" and "zvfh": with this change both /proc/cpuinfo and the hwprobe RISCV_HWPROBE_KEY_IMA_EXT_0 bitmap report ZFHMIN and ZVFHMIN, and the hwprobe selftest (including the new implication check) passes.

2026-08-31riscv: hwprobe: initialize pair->value in hwprobe_one_pair()Andy Chiu1-3/+2
The vendor-extension handlers reached from hwprobe_one_pair() (hwprobe_isa_vendor_ext_thead_0() and friends) only OR the present bits into pair->value via VENDOR_EXTENSION_SUPPORTED() and clear their own missing bits; they assume the caller has already zeroed pair->value. That holds for hwprobe_get_values() (it zeroes each pair) and hwprobe_get_cpus() (it re-initializes its scratch pair per key), but not for complete_hwprobe_vdso_data(), which reuses a single pair across all keys without re-zeroing. A vendor key therefore inherits stale bits from the previously probed key, and the wrong value is cached in the vDSO all_cpu_hwprobe_values[] and handed to userspace on the fast patih. Zero pair->value once at the top of hwprobe_one_pair() so every handler starts from a clean value regardless of the caller, and drop the now redundant zeroing in the *_BLOCK_SIZE cases. hwprobe_isa_ext0() keeps its own zeroing because hwprobe_ext0_has() calls it directly, bypassing hwprobe_one_pair().

2026-08-31Revert "riscv: Reset pmm when PR_TAGGED_ADDR_ENABLE is not set"Samuel Holland1-3/+1
This reverts commit 3033b2b1e3949274f33a140e2a97571b5a307298. The reverted patch is userspace-visible behavior change, not a bug fix. The two variables here (pmm and pmlen) control two independent features: pmm is the _hardware_ pointer masking mode that applies while executing in userspace. pmlen is the shift amount that the _kernel_ uses when untagging addresses; PMLEN_0 means no untagging occurs, so the kernel does not accept tagged addresses in syscall arguments. It is valid (as documented and tested by the self test) to enable pointer masking without enabling the tagged address ABI. This separation is necessary to allow userspace to create an execution environment similar to what the kernel supports on arm64 by default, where TBI is enabled but the tagged address ABI is not. (On arm64, there is no equivalent to PR_PMLEN_MASK because TBI is always enabled.)

2026-08-31riscv: patch: skip fixmap mapping when kernel text is already writableXiaofeng Yuan1-0/+2
patch_map() always creates a temporary writable mapping via fixmap for kernel text addresses, even when CONFIG_STRICT_KERNEL_RWX is disabled and the kernel text is already mapped with _PAGE_WRITE. This is unnecessary overhead at best, and on minimal configurations it can cause page faults. Skip the fixmap path for kernel text when CONFIG_STRICT_KERNEL_RWX is not enabled, since the text pages are already writable in that case. The module text path is already gated on CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX and is kept unchanged.

When CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX is not set, execmem cannot create temporary writable mappings for read-only executable pages. In this case, the execmem ranges must already have writable permissions. Currently EXECMEM_KPROBES unconditionally uses PAGE_KERNEL_READ_EXEC, which causes kprobe instruction slot writes to trigger page faults on systems where CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX is not enabled.

Always use the same page table walker kvm->arch.gva_walk as the entry point to convert a guest's virtual address, where the previous code used two different kvm_mmu structs depending on whether the walk included nested EPT/NPT or not. Make page fault vmexits reuse the permission checking machinery that is used for guest page faults. This is both a cleanup and a baby step towards supporting XS/XU memory permissions - Document some of the "fun" gotchas with the APIC base when creating IRQCHIPs on x86 - Remove a defunct masterclock update from kvm_xen_shared_info_init(). It could result in incorrect kvmclock due to triggering an unnecessary switch to/from masterclock mode - Skip Xen runstate time updates if time has effectively gone backwards, so that the guest doesn't report 100% steal time for a very, very long time - Drop KVM's runtime updates of the Xen PV timing CPUID leaf, as KVM was updating the wrong sub-leaf, and upstream KVM will soon provide all the information needed by userspace to populate the CPUID field itself - Fix a bug where KVM would walk a newly created rmap without holding the rmap lock (or mmu_lock) during aging - Fix a bug where aging TDP MMU SPTEs could clobber FROZEN SPTEs - Fix a variety of #DB priority bugs - Fix a class of races related to enabling Hyper-V emulation on a vCPU after the vCPU is visible to the rest of KVM - Use static calls for nested virtualization ops - Move more KVM-internal code out of x86's kvm_host.h - Enumerate support for a variety of Zhaoxin instructions that don't require explicit virtualization - Fix missing EFER validation bugs, including in the KVM_SET_SREGS* path - Harden kvm_vcpu_map() against double-mapping and thus leaking references - Misc fixes and cleanups, e.g. for largely benign syzkaller splats x86 (Intel): - Zero a vCPU's entry in VMX's Posted Interrupt Descriptor table used for IPI virtualization when the vCPU is freed, to fix a use-after-free where hardware will write to a freed vCPU's PID - Service local TLB flushes on a failed nested VM-Enter to fix a bug where KVM could miss a TLB on a future, successful VM-Enter with the same L2 VPID - Cap the maximum value shoved into the VMX Preemption Timer to workaround an erratum that affects all existing Intel CPUs that support CPUID 0x15 - Fix VPID virtualization bugs where KVM would fail to flush hardware TLBs - Harden the TDX "populate" ioctls against bad input, and to prepare for supporting in-place private<=>shared conversion x86 (AMD): - Forcefully invalidate SNP VMSA pages if their backing guest_memfd page is zapped/invalidated, e.g. due to a PUNCH_HOLE in response to a Page-State Change request - Remove a dying VM from the GA Log notifier list before the VM is actually destroyed, to fix a potential use-after-free - While FOLL_WRITE was needed in the past to trigger CoW unsharing, nowadays FOLL_LONGTERM does that already even without FOLL_WRITE, and in fact, get_user_pages() actually disallows FOLL_WRITE together with FOLL_LONGTERM. So don't pass FOLL_WRITE when registering encrypted memory regions, i.e. when pinning SEV/SEV-ES guest memory, to fix a regression with file-backed memory introduced by KVM's (correct) usage of long-term pins (This was reviewed by mm maintainers; for more information, see commit ee1a586dd1fa "KVM: SEV: Drop FOLL_WRITE for encrypted region registration") - Allocate full pages for SEV/SEV-ES {DE,EN}CRYPT ops on SNP-enabled hosts to fix a data corruption issue due to the PSP driver assigning to-be-written pages to firmware (as required by the SNP specs) - Unconditionally intercept ICBEP so that KVM generates the correct guest RIP when handling an ICEBP-induced TASK_SWITCH #VMEXIT - Harden the SNP "populate" ioctls against bad input, and to prepare for supporting in-place private<=>shared conversion Generic: - Remove kvm_debugfs_dir if kvm_init() fails after creating KVM's debugfs - Add a per-VM bitmap to track which vCPU IDs have been "claimed" but for which the vCPU isn't yet online, and use the bitmap to reject duplicate IDs before calling into arch code. This allows arch code to consume vcpu_id without having to worry about cross-vCPU clobbering (at least s390 and x86 have had related bugs) - Rework the so called "prepare" and "invalidate" guest_memfd hooks to prepare for in-place private<=>shared conversion, and clean up a few warts along the way Selftests: - Automatically allocate a full page for L2 guest stacks on x86 instead of requiring test-specific L1 guest code to carve out a portion of the L1 stack for L2 usage, and to ensure the L2 stack also adheres to the x86-64 calling convention ABI - Add a selftest to verify {Guest,Host}-Only behavior in x86's mediated PMU - Clean up nested SVM's handling of GPRs on L2<=>L1 transitions, reuse the functionality for nested VMX, and drop the ucall hack that was fudging around the lack of GPR switching on nVMX - Add a stress test to verify KVM doesn't clobber/drop #PF state, e.g. CR2, across save/restore, including when L2 is active - Add a test to verify KVM_CREATE_VM accepts exactly what is reported by KVM_CAP_VM_TYPES - Misc selftests fixes and cleanups - Fix several issues with seeding the pRNG, and rework the pRNG APIs to that the pRNG can be sanely used in host code, not just guest code - Add an IRQ test to validate virtual IRQ deliverty for IRQs wired up via KVM_IRQFD + KVM_SET_GSI_ROUTING, with optional support for triggering IRQs via writes to an assigned VFIO device - Add syscall wrappers to assert success on a variety of pthreads and CPU affinity APIs - Set vCPU pthread affinity as early as possible to reduce contention issues that were surfaced by PREEMPT_LAZY, which result in runtimes of over a minute on large hosts, versus the expected ~5 seconds - Rework the PMU counters test to run each testcase using a single VM with many vCPUs for each sub-testcase, instead of using a unique VM for each sub-testcase.

By assigning weights to attribute probes, DAMON can completely disable access tracking and adjust monitoring regions based on weighted probe-hit counters to optimize monitoring quality for attribute-focused workloads. - "mm/hmm: Add mmap lock-drop support for userfaultfd-backed mappings" (Stanislav Kinsburskii) Extend hmm_range_fault() to support userfaultfd-backed regions by allowing the mmap lock to be dropped during fault handling via a new hmm_range_fault_locked() helper. By accepting a locked pointer and signaling retry status when lock release occurs, it enables page fault resolution in userfaultfd regions while preserving backward compatibility for existing callers. - "mm: make VMA page offset handling more consistent" (Lorenzo Stoakes) Clean up and standardize how vma->vm_pgoff is accessed and manipulated across file-backed and anonymous mappings in the kernel It introduces dedicated helper functions such as vma_start_pgoff(), vma_end_pgoff(), vma_set_pgoff() and linear_page_delta() while renaming rmap interval tree helpers to better reflect their functionality. These changes establish a cleaner foundation for future work that will unify virtual page offset indexing for all anonymous and CoW'd folios. - "mm: handle device-private PMDs in walk callbacks" (Usama Arif) Address kernel panics and state corruption caused by MM walk callbacks reaching non-present device-private PMD swap entries created during HMM migrations It ensures that functions which acquire pmd_trans_huge_lock() properly recognize device-private PMDs instead of assuming a present THP or a standard migration entry. - "mm/rmap: Refactor try_to_unmap_one" (Dev Jain) Refactor try_to_unmap_one by modularizing Hugetlb, anonymous-lazyfree, and anonymous-swapbacked logic into dedicated functions, laying the structural groundwork for batched anonymous large folio unmapping. - "Docs/ABI/damon: sysfs ABI document fixes and additions" (Song Hu) Fix typos and fills in missing entries in the DAMON sysfs ABI document - "dax/kmem: atomic whole-device hotplug via sysfs" (Gregory Price) Introduce an atomic sysfs state attribute and supporting DAX/MM infrastructure to prevent userland races when offlining and removing entire memory regions By adding an unplugged state alongside standard online modes, it enables whole-device atomic hotplug control while preserving backward compatibility. - "mm: convert more vm_flags_t users to vma_flags_t" (Lorenzo Stoakes) Continue transitioning the kernel from the deprecated vm_flags_t type to vma_flags_t across core memory management infrastructure. It replaces legacy type usage in core functions such as do_mmap(), unmapped area allocation, mm->def_vma_flags, and VMA operations like mlock, mprotect, and mremap. - "Two small patches to clean up mm/mm_slot.h" (xu xin) Refactor mm_slot.h by introducing mm_slot_remove() to unify duplicate slot deletion sequences in khugepaged and KSM. It also adds code documentation explaining why mm_slot_lookup and mm_slot_insert must remain as preprocessor macros rather than static inline functions. - "mm/damon/core: hide core-private struct fields" (SJ Park) Clean up DAMON core structures by consistently marking internal-only fields with private: comment tags to prevent improper direct access from outer layers. It enforces encapsulation across core structures including damon_region, damon_target, and damon_ctx and updates DAMON_SYSFS to interact through approved access APIs instead of exposing raw struct members. - "mm/damon: unurgent fixes for infinite loop, NULL de-ref and races" (SJ Park) Address potential infinite loops, NULL dereferences, and race conditions identified in DAMON It fixes an infinite loop triggered by extreme user configurations, a NULL pointer dereference within unit tests and minor monitoring accuracy degradation caused by subtle runtime races. - "mm/page_alloc: fixes for free_pages_nolock() on RT/UP" (Brendan Jackman) Fix an NMI safety flaw in __free_frozen_pages() where freeing pages on non-SMP or PREEMPT_RT kernels can bypass can_spin_trylock() checks via non-PCP or isolated migration paths. It also resolves potential kernel crashes and privilege escalation risks triggered when BPF tracing runs in NMI context alongside memory hotplug or large allocation frees. - "mm/page_alloc: couple of followups for recent cleanups" (Brendan Jackman) Clean up and update page allocator nomenclature, documentation, and debug assertions. It aligns internal FPI_ flags with the public "nolock" naming convention, removes outdated internal implementation details from high-level page allocator comments, and eliminates obsolete VM_BUG_ON() assertions in allocation paths. - "mm/mseal: further cleanups" (Lorenzo Stoakes) Refactor and simplify the mseal implementation by clarifying API boundaries and removing unnecessary code complexity. It replaces generic do_mseal() usage outside the syscall with a dedicated mseal_mmap_page_zero() helper for MMAP_PAGE_ZERO, eliminates mm_struct parameters to enforce that sealing applies only to current->mm, and streamlines overall logic and comments with no functional changes intended. - "mm/vmscan: fix swappiness=max and clean up per-node proactive reclaim" (Ridong Chen) Resolve reclaim behavior bugs and clean up function parameters across memory reclaim paths It fixes swappiness=max in both standard reclaim and MGLRU so unswappable anonymous memory no longer falls back to evicting page cache, ensures reclaim_store() returns accurate error codes instead of collapsing all failures into -EAGAIN, and removes the obsolete gfp_mask parameter from __node_reclaim(). - "mm: mincore: misc cleanups" (Kefeng Wang) Clean up and simplifies the mincore code. Most importantly, it removes the historical special behavior that always reports VM_PFNMAP pages as non-resident. - "mm/huge_memory: drop dead split helper variants" (Kiryl Shutsemau) Two trivial cleanups in the folio split API - "mm/damon: fix uninitialized DAMOS field and kunit exec expectation bugs" (SJ Park) Resolve minor operational and testing bugs in DAMON identified by Sashiko. It initializes the damos->last_applied field to prevent occasional efficiency degradation and fixes invalid memory accesses in DAMON KUnit tests during test failure handling. - "cleanup for stable_page_flags()" (Jinjiang Tu) Clean up and refactor stable_page_flags() used by /proc/kpageflags without altering functionality. It uses BIT_ULL() to prevent shift-overflow warnings on 64-bit flag bits, converts folio-specific flag checks to standard folio_test_*() helpers, and removes redundant CONFIG_PAGE_IDLE_FLAG handling. - "Batch unmap of uffd-wp file folios" (Dev Jain) Extend batched folio unmapping support to file folios within userfaultfd write-protect (uffd-wp) VMAs by adding batching capabilities to pte_install_uffd_wp_if_needed(). This removes special-case restrictions on uffd-wp VMAs in try_to_unmap_one(), significantly simplifying the function's control flow and complexity. - "mm/early_ioremap: clarify and clean up early_ioremap_reset()" (Sang-Heon Jeon) Clarify and clean up the architecture-specific usage of __late_set_fixmap() and __late_clear_fixmap() after early_ioremap_reset() It adds explicit documentation regarding when early_ioremap_reset() must be called and removes redundant macro definitions and reset calls in the RISC-V and ARM64 architectures. - "mm: fix reclaim storms in defrag_mode" (Johannes Weiner) Address severe performance regressions, swap storms, and spurious OOMs caused by vm.defrag_mode=1 under high memory pressure in Meta production It updates the page allocator slowpath so non-movable allocation requests actively trigger direct reclaim and direct compaction at pageblock_order scale, allowing them to claim whole pageblocks rather than spinning unproductively. - "zram: lockmap tweaks" (Sebastian Siewior) Optimize and fix lockdep tracking for zram devices by consolidating per-entry lockmaps and isolate lock classes across multiple instances This reduces memory overhead by replacing per-entry lockdep_map instances with a single map per struct zram, and assigns a dynamic lock_class_key to each instance to prevent false deadlock reports when different zram devices are backed by distinct filesystems. * tag 'mm-stable-2026-08-18-18-39' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm: (501 commits) selftests/mm: thuge-gen: fix test_shmget() for PAGE_SIZE check selftests/mm: unpoison pages in memory-failure teardown mm/shmem: downgrade final i_blocks check in shmem_evict_inode() to pr_warn() mm/khugepaged: replace mutex_lock/mutex_unlock usage with guard macro mm/zsmalloc: fix release order of locks in zs_page_migrate() Documentation: zram: remove sections numbering ksm: stop iterating VMAs when ksm_test_exit returns true mm: fold userfaultfd_rwp() to false without CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_PTE_PROTNONE mm/migrate: report RCU-tasks quiescent states in migrate_pages_batch() zram: use a custom key for each zram object zram: move lockmap to be per-zram instead per table selftests/mm: fix gup_longterm EINVAL error message mm: page_alloc: fix non-movable reclaim storm in defrag_mode mm: page_alloc: move capture_control to the page allocator mm: compaction: support non-movable compaction for pageblock requests mm: page_alloc: __GFP_FS lockdep annotation for direct compaction hugetlb: evaluate subpool free state while locked mm/damon: remove trailing semicolons after function definitions mm/damon/ops-common: prevent migration fallback to non-target nodes mm/damon: update outdated comment about DAMOS filter handling ...
