show_pte() walks page tables locklessly and can run with interrupts
enabled. A concurrent teardown can free a table page while it is being
walked. It can also clear a parent entry after show_pte() checked it; the
regular pXd_offset() helpers then reread the cleared entry and can derive a
bogus lower-level pointer and fault again.
Use the lockless offset helpers with the saved parent entries, as
gup_fast() does, and pass the saved PMD to pte_offset_map().
For task page tables, arm64 selects MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE. Disable
local interrupts around the walk to hold off RCU-deferred table frees and
block the tlb_remove_table_sync_one() IPI until the walk is finished.
Place the IRQ guard after the header print. This does not make the output a
consistent snapshot, but prevents the task page-table walk from
dereferencing a released table page or deriving a pointer from a different
parent value.

note_page_flush() calls note_page() with addr == 0 and level == -1 to
dump the last row of a ptdump. addr == 0 (1 << 64 wrapped around)
renders a huge region with enormous size for address spaces with
IA bits < 64. For example the stage-2 page tables and the EFI runtime
page table.
More importantly, the last region of the address space and everything
after the address space up to 1 << 64 are merged into one row of
output. If the last region within the address space is valid, it will
appear to remain valid up to 1 << 64 with the same attributes.
Currently only the EFI runtime ptdump is affected by this, but KVM will
soon fix its stage-2 ptdump by using note_page_flush(). Here is an
example of an EFI runtime ptdump (last row):
0x0000008000000000-0x0000000000000000 17179868672G PGD
With this patch:
0x0000008000000000-0x0001000000000000 261632G PGD
To fix this, cache the end address of a ptdump in ptdump_pg_state so
note_page_flush() can call the final note_page() with the correct end
address.

The linear aliases of the kernel text and rodata are also mapped
read-only in the linear map. Given that the contents of these regions
are mostly identical to the version in the loadable image, mapping them
read-only and leaving their contents visible is a reasonable hardening
measure.
Data and bss, however, are now also mapped read-only but the contents of
these regions are more likely to contain data that we'd rather not leak.
So let's unmap these entirely in the linear map when the kernel is
running normally.
When going into hibernation or waking up from it, these regions need to
be mapped, so map the region initially, and toggle the valid bit so
map/unmap the region as needed.
Doing so is required because pages covering the kernel image are marked
as PageReserved, and therefore disregarded for snapshotting by the
hibernate logic unless they are mapped.

When reserved-memory regions with the "no-map" property are not
page-aligned, the kernel may accidentally map them into the linear
mapping, contradicting the no-map semantics.
The root cause is a mismatch between /proc/iomem's address boundaries
and the actual page table mapping boundaries:
1. /proc/iomem derives its ranges from memblock via
memblock_region_reserved_base_pfn/memblock_region_reserved_end_pfn,
which perform PFN rounding so the displayed boundaries are
page-aligned. This gives the impression that the no-map region
occupies whole pages.
2. However, memblock_mark_nomap() splits memblock.memory regions at
exact byte boundaries (memblock_isolate_range preserves raw DT
base/size with no alignment). When for_each_mem_range iterates the
non-NOMAP regions adjacent to a no-map region, it returns start/end
values that are NOT page-aligned — they are the precise byte
boundaries from the memblock split.
3. These sub-page-aligned values are passed to
__create_pgd_mapping_locked(), which does:
phys &= PAGE_MASK;
addr = virt & PAGE_MASK;
end = PAGE_ALIGN(virt + size);
The downward rounding of phys via PAGE_MASK extends the mapped
range backward into the adjacent no-map region, effectively
including no-map memory in the linear mapping.
For example, with 64K pages, reserved_region@A2000000 (base=0xA2000000,
size=0x8000, no-map) causes for_each_mem_range to return
start=0xA2008000 for the next mappable region. After phys &= PAGE_MASK,
the actual mapping starts at 0xA2000000 — the entire no-map region is
incorrectly mapped.
Fix this by rounding the mappable range inward to PAGE_SIZE boundaries
before passing it to __map_memblock: start is rounded UP and end is
rounded DOWN. This ensures the mapped area never overlaps with adjacent
no-map regions. The cost is at most one page of unmapped gap at each
boundary, which is preferable to violating no-map semantics.

When we resume from cpu_suspend() context tracking, specially,
ct_idle_exit() performs IRQ save/restore sequence. It doesn't cause
any functional issues since we have masked all exceptions prior
suspend and have not restored them. However, in case of pseudo-NMI PMR
can be set by firmware to arbitrary value, thus IRQ save/restore
routines manipulates this arbitrary value. Again, it doesn't cause any
issues since PMR variant of IRQ save helper carries a
__pmr_irqs_disabled_flags() guard.
Going forward __pmr_irqs_disabled_flags() guard will be gone and we
will call __pmr_local_irq_disable() unconditionally - that would cause
warning in case CONFIG_ARM64_DEBUG_PRIORITY_MASKING is set.
Initialize PMR to a value known to Linux on resume until the normal
exception restore path restores the saved DAIF and PMR state.

- As bbml2_noabort is functionally equivalent to bbml3,
rename cpu/system_supports_bbml2_noabort to
cpu/system_supports_bbml3.
The ARM64 capability name is also renamed accordingly.
- As BBML2_NOABORT or the equivalent BBML3 is the
kernel requirement for setting up linear map with
block/contpte mappings and not BBML2, replace all
bbml2 references with bbml3.
FEAT_BBML3, is introduced as part of 2025 Architecture Extensions.

This partially reverts commit fa93b45fd397 ("arm64: Enable vmalloc-huge
with ptdump"), retaining vmalloc-huge support but eliminating the now
redundant mitigation against a race between huge vmap page table freeing
and ptdump, as this issue has now been fixed at core.
We also simultaneously remove the arm64 if-deffery when acquiring the mmap
read lock upon vmap huge page table promotion as it is no longer required.
Note that this patch relies on the preceding vmalloc patch, and should not
be backported alone.

all DMA agents can be treated as coherent.

phys_to_dma_encrypted() otherwise. If a device requires unencrypted DMA
but the source physical address is still encrypted, force the mapping

consistent.

arm64 Realms, powerpc secure guests and s390 protected virtualization
guests currently report CC_ATTR_MEM_ENCRYPT, but not
CC_ATTR_GUEST_MEM_ENCRYPT.
These environments are all secure guest configurations. Their
force_dma_unencrypted() implementations also treat the same secure guest
state as requiring unencrypted DMA. Report CC_ATTR_GUEST_MEM_ENCRYPT for
the same condition so generic confidential-computing code can distinguish
guest memory encryption from host memory encryption instead of relying only

huge_ptep_get() can be handed a virtual address pointing to the middle
of a contpmd/contpte mapped hugetlb folio (examples of callers are
pagemap_hugetlb_range, page_mapped_in_vma).
The arm64 helper rewalks the pgtables in find_num_contig to answer
whether the huge pte we have maps a contpmd or a contpte hugetlb folio,
and returns CONT_PMDS or CONT_PTES, so that it can collect a/d bits over
the contiguous ptes. We can falsely return CONT_PTES instead of
CONT_PMDS if the addr is not aligned. On systems where CONT_PTES !=
CONT_PMDS (meaning page size is 16K), we could collect excess A/D bit
state, meaning extra work for the kernel. Even worse, we may iterate
beyond the PTE table and dereference a garbage ptep pointer to access
physical memory we don't own. Since the ptep pointer is a linear map
address, we may run off the end of the linear map or into a hole,
dereference a VA not mapped into the kernel pgtables and cause kernel
panic.
Fix this by aligning the pmdp pointer down to a contpmd base before
checking equality with the passed huge pte pointer, to correctly answer

pKVM does support memory encryption, expose that to the rest of
the kernel through cc_platform_has()
At the moment, all devices inside the guest are emulated which
requires its memory to be shared back to the host (decrypted), so
set force_dma_unencrypted() to always return true.
Although, typically pKVM guests rely on restricted-dma-pools to
bounce traffic, with this change, it is possible to solely rely on
the default SWIOTLB for that (assuming the appropriate size is set
from the command line)

At the moment, arch_mm_preinit() checks if the system has limited
addressing or is running under CCA to enable SWIOTLB, only after to
be forced to true anyway if it was false due to
CONFIG_DMA_BOUNCE_UNALIGNED_KMALLOC being unconditionally true for
arm64.
Simplify this logic, by making it clear that SWIOTLB is always used
but its size depends on the address layout of the system.

prevent_memory_remove_notifier() advances pfn while scanning the requested
range for early memory. When the loop completes, pfn is at or beyond
end_pfn. Passing it to can_unmap_without_split() therefore checks a range
after the one being offlined.
Consequently, a valid request can be rejected based on the following
range, while a request that would split a leaf mapping can be accepted if
the shifted range can be unmapped without a split. This was observed with
CXL DAX memory, where the final memory block was incorrectly allowed to
be offlined.
Pass arg->start_pfn into can_unmap_without_split() so it checks the
requested range.

When logging the decode of a data abort we currently unconditionally decode
and display Xs. Currently the only defined non-RES0 values for this field
are for cases where ISV=1, move the decode of Xs into our existing check
for ISV=1. This avoids potential confusion if some other use is assigned to
these bits for ISV=0 cases in future, or misleading someone into thinking
there is a meaningful value there with currently defined architecture.

kasan_init_shadow() maps each memblock region with for_each_mem_range()
and breaks the loop when start >= end. for_each_mem_range() never returns
an invalid range, so start < end always.
Therefore the start >= end check is unreachable, so remove it.
No functional change.

Commit 35c18f2933c5 ("Add a new optional ",cma" suffix to the
crashkernel= command line option") and commit ab475510e042 ("kdump:
implement reserve_crashkernel_cma") added CMA support for kdump
crashkernel reservation.
Crash kernel memory reservation wastes production resources if too
large, risks kdump failure if too small, and faces allocation difficulties
on fragmented systems due to contiguous block constraints. The new
CMA-based crashkernel reservation scheme splits the "large fixed
reservation" into a "small fixed region + large CMA dynamic region": the
CMA memory is available to userspace during normal operation to avoid
waste, and is reclaimed for kdump upon crash—saving memory while
improving reliability.
So extend crashkernel CMA reservation support to arm64. The following
changes are made to enable CMA reservation:
- Parse and obtain the CMA reservation size along with other crashkernel
parameters.
- Call reserve_crashkernel_cma() to allocate the CMA region for kdump.
- Include the CMA-reserved ranges for kdump kernel to use.
- Exclude the CMA-reserved ranges from the crash kernel memory to
prevent them from being exported through /proc/vmcore, which is already
done in the crash core.
Update kernel-parameters.txt to document CMA support for crashkernel on
arm64 architecture.

merged remapping of the kernel data and bss sections:

arm64: mm: Defer read-only remap of data/bss linear alias

arm64: static_call: include asm/insns.h
|

Since commit
f2ba877402e5 ("arm64: mm: Map the kernel data/bss read-only in the linear map")
the linear alias of the .data and .bss regions is remapped read-only
early during the boot. (Note that a subsequent patch to unmap this
region entirely was reverted just before the v7.2 merge window, and will
be brought back in an improved form for the v7.3 cycle)
Fuad reports that in some cases, the KVM init code may apply relocations
to variables that reside in .data, and does so via the linear map. This
means that remapping .data read-only beforehand is a bad idea, and
results in an early boot crash.
These variables in .data are only present when CONFIG_NVHE_EL2_DEBUG or
CONFIG_NVHE_EL2_TRACING are enabled, which is why it was not spotted in
testing.
So move the remap to mark_rodata_ro(), which is a reasonable place to
put this, and ensures that it happens much later during the boot. It
also means that rodata=off is now taken into account, and so the linear
alias will remain writable in that case.

- Pass KBUILD_MODNAME through the platform driver registration macro
to create module symlinks in sysfs for built-in drivers; move
module_kset initialization to a pure_initcall and tegra cbb
registration to core_initcall to ensure correct ordering
- Pass THIS_MODULE implicitly through a coresight_init_driver() macro

Rust:
- ACPI:
Fix missing match data for PRP0001 by exporting

- Auxiliary:
Replace drvdata() with dedicated registration data on
auxiliary_device. drvdata() exposed the driver's bus device private
data beyond the driver's own scope, creating ordering constraints
and forcing the data to outlive all registrations that access it.
Registration data is instead scoped structurally to the
Registration object, making lifecycle ordering enforced by
construction rather than convention.
- Rust-native device driver lifetimes (HRT):
Allow Rust device drivers to carry a lifetime parameter on their
bus device private data, tied to the device binding scope -- the
interval during which a bus device is bound to a driver. Device
resources like pci::Bar<'a> and IoMem<'a> can be stored directly in
the driver's bus device private data with a lifetime bounded by the
binding scope, so the compiler enforces at build time that they do
not outlive the binding. This removes Devres indirection from every
access site and eliminates try_access() failure paths in
destructors.
Bus driver traits use a Generic Associated Type (GAT) Data<'bound>
to introduce the lifetime on the private data, rather than
parameterizing the Driver trait itself. Auxiliary registration
data, where the lifetime is not introduced by a trait callback but
must be threaded through Registration, uses the ForLt trait (a
type-level abstraction for types generic over a lifetime).
Misc:
- Fix DT overlayed devices not probing by reverting the broken
treewide overlay fix and re-running fw_devlink consumer pickup when
an overlay is applied to a bound device
- Use root_device_register() for faux bus root device; add sanity
check for failed bus init

Marking the linear alias of data/bss invalid involves calling
set_memory_valid(), which calls split_kernel_leaf_mapping() under the
hood.
On BBML2_NOABORT capable systems, this may result in the need to
allocate page tables at a time when the generic memory allocation APIs
are not yet available, resulting in a splat like

Rename the .pgdir.bss section to .bss..pgtbl so that the compiler will
notice the leading ".bss" and mark it as NOBITS by default (rather than
PROGBITS, which would take up space in Image binary, forcing all of the
preceding BSS to be emitted into the image as well). This supersedes the
NOLOAD linker directive, which achieves the same thing, and can be
therefore be dropped.
Also, rename .pgdir to .pgtbl to be more generic, as page tables of

Since 5e8eb9aeeda3 ("arm64: mm: always call PTE/PMD ctor in
__create_pgd_mapping()") page-table allocation on ARM64 always calls
pagetable_{pte,pmd,pud,p4d}_ctor(). This sets the page_type to
PGTY_table, increments NR_PAGETABLE and possible allocates a PTL. However
the matching pagetable_dtor() calls were never added.
With DEBUG_VM enabled on kernel versions prior to v6.17 without
2dfcd1608f3a9 ("mm/page_alloc: let page freeing clear any set page type")
this leads to the following warning when freeing these pages due to
page->page_type sharing page->_mapcount:

It can also lead to leaking the ptl allocation if ALLOC_SPLIT_PTLOCKS is
defined and incorrect NR_PAGETABLE stats. Fix this by calling
pagetable_dtor() in free_hotplug_pgtable_page() prior to freeing the page
to undo the effects of calling pagetable_*_ctor().

The linear aliases of the kernel text and rodata are also mapped
read-only in the linear map. Given that the contents of these regions
are mostly identical to the version in the loadable image, mapping them
read-only and leaving their contents visible is a reasonable hardening
measure.
Data and bss, however, are now also mapped read-only but the contents of
these regions are more likely to contain data that we'd rather not leak.
So let's unmap these entirely in the linear map when the kernel is
running normally.
When going into hibernation or waking up from it, these regions need to
be mapped, so map the region initially, and toggle the valid bit so
map/unmap the region as needed.
Doing so is required because pages covering the kernel image are marked
as PageReserved, and therefore disregarded for snapshotting by the
hibernate logic unless they are mapped.

On systems where the bootloader adheres to the original arm64 boot
protocol, the placement of the kernel in the physical address space is
highly predictable, and this makes the placement of its linear alias in
the kernel virtual address space equally predictable, given the lack of
randomization of the linear map.
The linear aliases of the kernel text and rodata regions are already
mapped read-only, but the kernel data and bss are mapped read-write in
this region. This is not needed, so map them read-only as well.
Note that the statically allocated kernel page tables do need to be
modifiable via the linear map, so leave these mapped read-write.

Now that the linear region mapping routines respect existing table
mappings and contiguous block and page mappings, it is no longer needed
to fiddle with the memblock tables to set and clear the NOMAP attribute
in order to omit text and rodata when creating the linear map.
Instead, map the kernel text and rodata alias first with the desired
initial attributes and granularity, so that the loop iterating over the
memblocks will not remap it in a manner that prevents it from being
remapped with updated attributes later.

Move the fixmap and kasan page tables out of the BSS section, and place
them at the end of the image, right before the init_pg_dir section where
some of the other statically allocated page tables live.
These page tables are currently the only data objects in vmlinux that
are meant to be accessed via the kernel image's linear alias, and so
placing them together allows the remainder of the data/bss section to be
remapped read-only or unmapped entirely.

There are a few cases where we omit the contiguous hint for mappings
that start out as read-write and are remapped read-only later, on the
basis that manipulating live descriptors with the PTE_CONT attribute set
is unsafe. When support for the contiguous hint was added to the code,
the ARM ARM was ambiguous about this, and so we erred on the side of
caution.
In the meantime, this has been clarified [0], and regions that will be
remapped in their entirety, retaining the contiguous bit on all entries,
can use the contiguous hint both in the initial mapping as well as the
one that replaces it. Note that this requires that the logic that may be
called to remap overlapping regions respects existing valid descriptors
that have the contiguous bit cleared.
So omit the NO_CONT_MAPPINGS flag in places where it is unneeded.

For a TLB lookup in a contiguous region mapped by translation table entries that
have consistent values for the Contiguous bit, but have the OA, attributes, or
permissions misprogrammed, that TLB lookup is permitted to produce an OA, access

programmed translation table values.

Now that the map_mem() routines respect existing page mappings and
contiguous granule sized blocks with the contiguous bit cleared, there
is no longer a reason to play tricks with the memblock NOMAP attribute.
Instead, the kfence pool can be allocated and mapped with page
granularity first, and this granularity will be respected when the rest
of DRAM is mapped later, even if block and contiguous mappings are
allowed for the remainder of those mappings.
Add the NO_EXEC_MAPPINGS flag to ensure that hierarchical XN attributes
are set on the intermediate page tables that are allocated when mapping
the pool.

Currently, pgattr_change_is_safe() is overly pedantic when it comes to
descriptors with the contiguous hint attribute set, as it rejects
assignments even if the old and the new value are the same.
In fact, as per ARM ARM RJQQTC, manipulating descriptors with the
contiguous bit set is safe as long as the bit itself does not change
value, in the sense that no TLB conflict aborts or other exceptions may
be raised as a result. Inconsistent permission attributes within the
contiguous region may result in any of the alternatives to be taken to
apply to the entire region, which might be a programming error, but it
does not constitute an unsafe manipulation in terms of what
pgattr_change_is_safe() is intended to detect.
So drop the special PTE_CONT check, but still omit PTE_CONT from 'mask'
so that modifying the bit is still regarded as unsafe.

Instead of blindly overwriting existing live entries regardless of the
value of their contiguous bit when mapping DRAM regions at
contiguous-hint granularity, check whether the contiguous region in
question contains any valid descriptors that have the contiguous bit
cleared, and in that case, leave the contiguous bit unset on the entire
region. This permits the logic of mapping the kernel's linear alias to
be simplified in a subsequent patch.
Note that this can only result in a misprogrammed contiguous bit (as per
ARM ARM RNGLXZ) if the region in question already contains a mix of
valid contiguous and valid non-contiguous descriptors, in which case it
was already misprogrammed to begin with.

Sashiko reports:
| If pmd_set_huge() rejects an unsafe page table transition (such as
| mapping a different physical address over an existing block mapping),
| it returns 0 and leaves the page table entry unmodified.
|
| Because *pmdp remains unmodified, READ_ONCE(pmd_val(*pmdp)) will equal
| pmd_val(old_pmd). The transition from old_pmd to old_pmd is evaluated
| as safe by pgattr_change_is_safe(), so the BUG_ON never triggers.
|
| This allows invalid and unsafe mapping updates to be silently dropped
| instead of panicking, leaving stale memory mappings active while the
| caller assumes the update was successful.
The same applies to pud_set_huge() in alloc_init_pud().
Given how it is generally preferred to limp on rather than blow up the
system if an unexpected condition such as this one occurs, and the fact
that there are no known cases where this disparity results in real
problems, let's WARN on these failures rather than BUG, allowing the
system to survive to the point where it can actually report them.
