2026-08-05cgroup,cgroup/dmem: Add (dmem_)cgroup_common_ancestor helperNatalie Vock2-0/+30
This helps to find a common subtree of two resources, which is important when determining whether it's helpful to evict one resource in favor of another. To facilitate this, add a common helper to find the ancestor of two cgroups using each cgroup's ancestor array.

2026-08-05thunderbolt: Make interrupt optional for ringsMika Westerberg1-0/+2
For some use-cases it does make sense to poll the rings directly instead of relying on the interrupt. For this reason add a new flag RING_FLAG_NO_INTERRUPT that can be used to allocate ring in polled mode.

2026-08-04mm/vmalloc: acquire init_mm lock on huge vmap to avoid ptdump UAFLorenzo Stoakes (ARM)1-0/+1
Patch series "mm: fix UAF caused by race between ptdump and vmap pgtable freeing", v6. Kernel page table walkers fall into two broad categories - those ranges where no exclusion is required via walk_kernel_page_table_range_lockless() and those where exclusion is required via walk_kernel_page_table_range() or walk_page_range_debug(). The former category is used only by arm64 arch code operating on ranges it both wholly owns and does not concurrently write. The latter category consists of kernel page table walkers operating on ranges that are wholly owned (but which need exclusion against concurrent writers). The lock used for exclusion is the mmap lock, and for kernel ranges this is the mmap lock on init_mm. ptdump is a special case being both the only user of walk_page_range_debug(), and the only case in which it walks ranges it does not own. This presents a problem, as page tables may be freed under ptdump. And indeed there is a use-after-free bug in the kernel as a result, which this series addresses. vmap promotes page tables to huge leaf entries where possible, freeing the lower page table when it does. It does this with no meaningful locks held against concurrent ptdump walks. As a result, use-after-free can currently occur. This series addresses the issue by having the vmap huge promotion logic acquire the mmap read lock while both setting the huge page table entry and freeing the prior leaf page table. The ptdump code already acquires the mmap write lock, so by doing so we ensure that the ptdump walker only ever observes either the huge page table entry or the existing page table entry, and nothing is freed underneath it. A mitigation for this issue was already applied for arm64 in commit fa93b45fd397 ("arm64: Enable vmalloc-huge with ptdump"), which this series has to deal with carefully. This mitigation resolves the issue by acquiring the mmap read lock on init_mm on vmap page table free if a ptdump is in progress. However the fix in this series would cause a deadlock if we were to simply apply it for arm64 without also reverting the change. This is because vmap may acquire the read lock before ptdump attempts to acquire the write lock, which then gets queued, and rwsem starvation rules mean that the (unacknowledged) nested mmap read lock in the arm64 code would also block, meaning the original read lock is never released and thus deadlock. This series works around this by #ifndef CONFIG_ARM64'ing the mmap read lock in vmap logic, then partially reverting commit fa93b45fd397 ("arm64: Enable vmalloc-huge with ptdump"), keeping the enablement of huge vmap support, and removing the ifdeffery with the partial revert patch. There are related issues that are also addressed in this series: * x86 page attribute logic, specifically Change Page Attributes (CPA), implements a feature whereby huge ranges can be collapsed into huge leaf entries. This can similarly cause a UAF when done in parallel with a ptdump walk, so similarly acquire the init_mm mmap lock to avoid this. * The CPA logic allows concurrent page table manipulation and CPA collapse, meaning the former risks accessing a page table the latter frees. Fix this by acquiring mmap write lock on init_mm across the whole CPA collapse operation and read lock on the page table manipulation. * x86 and arm64 permit walks of non-kernel mm's (both allowing efi mm walks, and in x86's case arbitrary mm's), so we ensure kernel mappings remain stable by locking the init_mm as well as the mm being walked. The ordering of patches is established for both strict dependencies (the arm64 partial revert in particular has to be done after the vmap changes) and logical ones (the non-kernel mm fix only makes sense once the vmap/CPA fixes are in place). This patch (of 3): Currently there is a nasty race between ptdump and vmap when attempting to map a huge P4D, PUD or PMD entry: * ptdump walks kernel page table ranges it doesn't own. * When vmap maps ranges it tries to promotes existing ones to huge page tables in vmap_try_huge_[p4d,pud,pmd]() at P4D, PUD and PMD level, freeing the lower page table in [p4d,pud,pmd]_free_[pud,pmd,pte]_page() when it succeeds. Both of these things can happen at the same time and as a result ptdump can access a freed page table, resulting in a use-after-free and memory corruption. This is possible because while ptdump_walk_pgd() holds both the mem hotplug lock and the mmap write lock before invoking walk_page_range_debug(), vmap takes no relevant locks at all. Fix this by holding the mmap read lock in vmap_try_huge_*() when freeing page tables. The read lock is sufficient: ptdump is the only walker that must be excluded and it holds the mmap write lock. Other holders of the read lock may run concurrently, but each exclusively owns the range it operates on and cannot reach the page tables freed here. We also hold the lock while assigning the huge page table entry, which means page table walkers observe only the huge or non-huge page table entry. We use a trylock to prevent ptdump from blocking vmap making forward progress. This is fine because it's an optimisation in any case, and thus the vmap can safely proceed regardless. All other kernel page table walkers that touch vmalloc ranges either exclusively own the memory walked or acquire the mmap lock, so this correctly excludes those walkers. One wrinkle here is commit fa93b45fd397 ("arm64: Enable vmalloc-huge with ptdump"), which addresses the issue for arm64 only by explicitly acquiring the mmap read lock on kernel page table freeing should a concurrent ptdump be in progress. This is problematic as vmap may acquire the mmap read lock prior to ptdump attempting to acquire an mmap write lock, leading to a deadlock when the mmap read lock is slept upon on page table freeing due to rwsem anti-starvation. We work around this by predicating the mmap lock being taken on !CONFIG_ARM64 for the time being. With this patch applied, a follow up will partially revert commit fa93b45fd397 ("arm64: Enable vmalloc-huge with ptdump") and at that stage remove the arm64 ifdeffery. We also update walk_page_range_debug() to assert the mmap write lock unconditionally and update the comment here to reflect this change. The issue has existed as long as ptdump was available and vmap freed page tables when promoting to a huge leaf entry, that is, since commit b6bdb7517c3d ("mm/vmalloc: add interfaces to free unmapped page table") for huge ioremap, and commit 121e6f3258fe ("mm/vmalloc: hugepage vmalloc mappings") for huge vmalloc. Since the former is the earlier of the two we choose that for our Fixes tag. We also define a guard class for mmap_read_trylock() so we can use cleanup.h to make the scope handling cleaner in the implementation. This patch is based on work by David Carlier (linked), with gratitude!

2026-08-04mm/rmap: add try_to_unmap_poisoned_hugetlb_oneDev Jain1-0/+1
Simplify try_to_unmap_one() by separating the hugetlb parts into try_to_unmap_poisoned_hugetlb_one(). To understand the correctness of the refactoring, the following points are noted: 1. try_to_unmap() is called for hugetlb folios only when they are hwpoisoned. 2. A hugetlb VMA cannot be mlocked. 3. page_vma_mapped_walk() returns at most one hugetlb mapping in a VMA, and that mapping points at the head PFN. 4. We won't ever process a softleaf entry that encodes a hugetlb folio; hugetlb folios are never swapped out, migration entries will be skipped (PVMW_MIGRATION not passed), and device-exclusive does not work for hugetlb. 5. The hwpoison entry is constructed from the poisoned folio, just as in the pre-refactor code. Any previous uffd-wp state is deliberately not preserved for the hwpoison entry. 6. TTU_HWPOISON is always present; for it to not be present, either the folio has to be in swapcache, or mapping_can_writeback() is true (see unmap_poisoned_folio), none of which is true for hugetlb folios. 7. Hugetlb uses separate counters from normal rss counters, therefore update_highwater_rss() need not be called. While at it: - Change VM_BUG_* to VM_WARN_*. - Do not declare variables which are only used once. - Constify some variables. - Add some more VM_WARN_* to assert some invariants. Except the above 4 points, no functional change intended.

2026-08-04mm/vma: introduce vma_assert_can_modify()Lorenzo Stoakes1-0/+8
vma_assert_write_locked() and vma_assert_attached() are useful for their own purposes, however VMA code absolutely does allow the modification of non-write locked VMAs if they are at that point detached (i.e. unreachable from anywhere). It's therefore useful to be able to assert that a VMA is either detached (modification doesn't matter) or write locked (you're explicitly locked for modification). Therefore introduce vma_assert_can_modify() for this purpose. While we're here, make vma_is_attached() available generally - if !CONFIG_PER_VMA_LOCK, then there's no sense in which a VMA is detached (vma_mark_detached() is a noop), so have this default to true in this case. Also update VMA userland tests to reflect this change, correcting the previously open-coded vma_assert_[attached,detached]() there.

2026-08-04mm/vma: use vma_start_pgoff(), linear_page_index() in mm codeLorenzo Stoakes3-3/+3
There are many instances in which linear_page_index() (as well as linear_page_delta()) is open-coded, which is confusing and inconsistent. Additionally, vma->vm_pgoff doesn't necessarily make it clear that this is the page offset of the start of the VMA range. Doing so also aids greppability. So use vma_start_pgoff() in favour of directly accessing vma->vm_pgoff, and linear_page_index() where we can. This also lays the ground for future changes which will add an anonymous page offset in order to be able to index MAP_PRIVATE-file backed anon folios in terms of their virtual page offset.

The family of vma_interval_tree_() functions manipulate the address_space (which, of course, is generally referred to as 'mapping') reverse mapping, but are named the 'VMA' interval tree. VMAs may be mapped by an anon_vma, an address_space, or both. Therefore calling the mapping interval tree a 'VMA' interval tree is rather confusing. This is also inconsistent with the anon_vma_interval_tree_*() functions which explicitly reference the rmap object to which they pertain. Rename the vma_interval_tree_*() functions to mapping_rmap_tree_*() to correct this. We will rename the anon rmap functions similarly in a subsequent patch. No functional change intended.

2026-08-04mm: move vma_start_pgoff() into mm.h and clean upLorenzo Stoakes1-2/+7
Patch series "mm: make VMA page offset handling more consistent", v2. This series performs a series of cleanups and improvements around how the vma->vm_pgoff field is used. Folios belonging to file-backed mappings are simply indexed by the page offset within the file they map (excepting pfnmap and driver mappings which sometimes do things different). However, anonymous folios belonging to pure anonymous mappings are indexed by their "virtual" page offset, which is equal to addr >> PAGE_SHIFT at the time at which the VMA was first faulted in. The page offset of a VMA is stored in vma->vm_pgoff and indicates the page offset of the start of the VMA range, whether it be file-backed or anonymous. The work here both cleans up how we reference this field, as well as laying the foundations for a future series which addresses the inconsistency of CoW'd folios in MAP_PRIVATE-file backed mappings, which are indexed as if they were file-backed but behave as if they were anonymous. This future series will make it such that all anonymous folios are indexed by virtual page offset whether belonging to VMAs who satisfy vma_is_anonymous() or MAP_PRIVATE-mapped file-backed mappings. This series: * Exposes vma_start_pgoff() and updates the kernel to use it consistently. * Adds and uses the useful vma_end_pgoff() helper. * Parameterises the file-backed mapping helpers vma_interval_tree_*() by address_space rather than rb_root_cached. * Renames: the misleadingly-named vma_interval_tree_*() helpers to mapping_rmap_tree_*() to be consistent with the renamed anon_rmap_tree_*(). * Parameterises anon_rmap_tree_*() by anon_vma. * Moves mm/interval_tree.c to the rmap section. * Adds vmg_*() helpers for page offset. * Clarifies the confusing vmg_adjust_set_range() function. * Introduces linear_page_delta() to provide relative pgoff within a VMA. * Replaces open-coded versions of linear_page_delta() and linear_page_index() with invocations of these functions. * Introduces and uses vma_assert_can_modify() to account for whether a VMA can be modified (detached or write locked). * Adds and uses vma_[add,sub]_pgoff() to adjust VMA page offset. * Moves __install_special_mapping() to vma.c. * Makes vma_set_range() static and internal to vma.c. * Introduces and makes use of vma_set_pgoff(). * Fixes incorrect vma.h header inclusion. * Defaults VMA userland tests to 64-bit vma flags size. * Updates VMA userland tests to give better output on failure. * Various smaller cleanups. * Updated the vma_set_pgoff() assert to account for MAP_PRIVATE /dev/zero correctly. This patch (of 33): vma_last_pgoff() already lives there, so it's a bit odd to keep vma_start_pgoff() in mm/interval_tree.c. Move them together. These each return unsigned long, which pgoff_t is typedef'd to. Make this consistent and have these functions return pgoff_t instead. Additionally, express vma_last_pgoff() in terms of vma_start_pgoff(), since we wrap the vma->vm_pgoff access, we may as well use it here. Also while we're here, const-ify the VMA and cleanup a bit. Also update the VMA userland tests to reflect the change. No functional change intended.

2026-08-04mm/hmm: add hmm_range_fault_unlocked_timeout() for mmap lock-drop supportStanislav Kinsburskii1-0/+2
hmm_range_fault() requires the caller to hold the mmap read lock for the duration of the call. This is incompatible with mappings whose fault handler may release the mmap lock, notably userfaultfd-managed regions, where handle_mm_fault() can return VM_FAULT_RETRY or VM_FAULT_COMPLETED after dropping the lock. Drivers that need to populate device page tables for such mappings have no way to do so today. Add hmm_range_fault_unlocked_timeout() for callers that do not need to hold mmap_lock across any work outside the HMM fault itself. The helper takes mmap_read_lock_killable() internally, calls the common HMM fault implementation, and releases the lock before returning if it is still held. The timeout is specified in jiffies; passing 0 retries indefinitely, while a non-zero timeout makes the helper return -EBUSY when the retry budget expires. The retry deadline is set before refreshing the notifier sequence and acquiring mmap_lock, so contended mmap_lock acquisition is included in the retry budget. After acquiring mmap_lock, the helper also rejects unstable address spaces before walking page tables. When handle_mm_fault() drops mmap_lock, or when the range is invalidated, hmm_range_fault_unlocked_timeout() refreshes range->notifier_seq and retries the walk internally. If the lock was dropped, the retry deadline is also restarted because a lock-dropping fault handler made progress. Ordinary -EBUSY retries keep the existing deadline, preserving the caller's timeout policy for repeated mmu-notifier invalidations. The caller only needs to perform the usual post-success mmu_interval_read_retry() check while holding its update lock before consuming the pfns. If mmap_lock acquisition is interrupted or a fatal signal is pending during retry handling, -EINTR is returned instead. The common implementation conditionally sets FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY and FAULT_FLAG_KILLABLE only for hmm_range_fault_unlocked_timeout(). The existing hmm_range_fault() path still passes no locked state, does not allow handle_mm_fault() to drop mmap_lock, and remains a thin wrapper preserving the existing API contract for current callers. The previous refactor that moved page fault handling out of the page-table walk callbacks is what makes this change small. Faults now run after walk_page_range() has unwound, with only mmap_lock held, so dropping it does not interact with the walker's pte spinlock or hugetlb_vma_lock. Hugetlb regions therefore participate in the unlocked path uniformly with PTE- and PMD-level mappings; no special case is required. Documentation/mm/hmm.rst is updated with a description of the new API and the recommended caller pattern.

2026-08-04mm/damon/core: introduce damon_probe->weightSJ Park1-0/+2
Patch series "mm/damon: introduce data attributes only monitoring". TL;DR: Introduce a way to get DAMON's best effort accuracy monitoring of user-demanding non-access data attributes. Background ========== DAMON was initially designed for only access monitoring. It turned out users want to get the information together with more data attributes. For example, some users want to know how much of a hot memory region belongs to huge pages or specific cgroups. Page level properties based monitoring was introduced with commit 626ffabe67c2 ("mm/damon: clarify trying vs applying on damos_stat kernel-doc comment") to fill the gap. Because it works only at snapshot level and snapshot capturing in the mode can induce high overhead, commit 45c49d9fd608 ("mm/damon/core: introduce struct damon_probe") introduced data attributes monitoring. Data attributes monitoring treats the attributes as only additional and subordinate information. Data access monitoring is always turned on, and regions are adjusted for best accuracy of the access information. In some cases, users may be primarily interested in the attributes more than the access. They might even not care about the access information at all. Because DAMON treats data accesses as the only primary information, such users cannot get high quality attributes information. Design and Implementation ========================= Introduce another way for treating data attributes as the primary information. Add 'weight' property to each data attribute probe. When any of the weights are set, the mode is enabled. Data access monitoring is completely turned off in the mode. For region adjustment, the weighted sum of probe hit counters is used instead of the nr_accesses. Using the weights, users can specify to what attributes they are interested in to what degree. DAMON will adjust the regions and provide the best-effort quality monitoring that is optimized for the user demands. Extend damon_operations for efficient use of probe hits. Update regions merge and kdamond main logic to support the new mode. Add a new struct field and a sysfs file for API callers and ABI users, respectively. Test ==== On ~7 GiB memory idle system, run a simple AI-assisted program. The program allocates and faults 2 GiB anonymous pages. Then, it does nothing but wait until the user terminates it. Hence, the system ~2 GiB of anonymous pages with no active accesses. Monitor the distribution of the anonymous pages using DAMON attributes monitoring mode, using DAMON user-space tool, damo [1]. $ sudo ./damo start --probe_filter allow anon $ sudo ./damo report access --dont_merge_regions heatmap: 00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000399999995111111146666666666666666 # min/max temperatures: -2,470,000,000, -1,620,000,000, column size: 99.800 MiB intervals: sample 5 ms aggr 100 ms (max access hz 200) # <start> <size> <freq> <age> <probe hits> 0 4.000 KiB 79.840 MiB 0 hz 24.700 s 2 1 79.844 MiB 718.562 MiB 0 hz 24.700 s 8 2 798.406 MiB 793.148 MiB 0 hz 24.700 s 7 3 1.554 GiB 797.828 MiB 0 hz 24.700 s 7 4 2.333 GiB 794.668 MiB 0 hz 24.600 s 8 5 3.109 GiB 791.117 MiB 0 hz 24.500 s 0 6 3.882 GiB 785.312 MiB 0 hz 24 s 2 7 4.649 GiB 787.867 MiB 0 hz 16.200 s 6 8 5.418 GiB 784.477 MiB 0 hz 23.300 s 6 9 6.184 GiB 783.820 MiB 0 hz 18.200 s 9 10 6.950 GiB 797.730 MiB 0 hz 18.900 s 7 11 7.729 GiB 69.625 MiB 0 hz 18.900 s 0 memory bw estimate: 0 B per second total size: 7.797 GiB record DAMON intervals: sample 5 ms, aggr 100 ms Note that the line after the line starting with "intervals:" is not provided by the current version of 'damo'. I manually added the legends line for easier understanding of these results. Each of the 12 lines after the legend line shows the DAMON-found regions. Each line shows 1) index of the region, 2) start address of the region, 3) size of the region, 4) access frequency of the region, 5) age (how long the access frequency on the region was kept) of the region, and finally 6) the probe hit count. Because data access is the primary information that adjusts region for, and there is only nearly zero access on the system, regions are naively adjusted with the same size. Still <probe hits> show different distribution of the anonymous pages, but it is obviously very rough information. Switch to the attributes only mode and show how it changes the picture: $ sudo ./damo tune --probe_filter allow anon --probe_weight 100 $ sudo ./damo report access --dont_merge_regions heatmap: 88888888888888888889888999999889999999000004888888888888889999988888898888888888 # min/max temperatures: -4,430,000,000, 0, column size: 99.800 MiB intervals: sample 5 ms aggr 100 ms (max access hz 200) # <start> <size> <freq> <age> <probe hits> 0 4.000 KiB 60.445 MiB 0 hz 700 ms 0 1 60.449 MiB 1.363 MiB 0 hz 600 ms 18 2 61.812 MiB 144.000 KiB 0 hz 0 ns 1 3 61.953 MiB 1.922 MiB 0 hz 2.400 s 19 4 63.875 MiB 12.133 MiB 0 hz 200 ms 0 [...] 500 5.132 GiB 8.000 KiB 0 hz 2 m 15.800 s 20 501 5.132 GiB 8.000 KiB 0 hz 2 m 16.200 s 0 502 5.132 GiB 16.000 KiB 0 hz 2 m 16.900 s 20 503 5.132 GiB 24.000 KiB 0 hz 2 m 14.200 s 0 504 5.132 GiB 8.000 KiB 0 hz 2 m 14.900 s 20 [...] 923 7.534 GiB 126.637 MiB 0 hz 0 ns 6 924 7.658 GiB 252.000 KiB 0 hz 54.800 s 20 925 7.658 GiB 142.242 MiB 0 hz 300 ms 0 memory bw estimate: 0 B per second total size: 7.797 GiB record DAMON intervals: sample 5 ms, aggr 100 ms As expected, regions are adjusted to provide the best accurate picture for the anonymous pages distribution (<probe hits>). The region 0 (60.445 MiB memory from the address 4.000 KiB) has nearly zero anonymous pages. The region 1 (1.363 MiB memory from the address 60.449 MiB) is nearly full with anonymous pages. Region 500 (8 KiB memory from the address 5.132 GiB) is certainly two anonymous pages. Future Work =========== Attributes only monitoring disables access monitoring. We will enable that in future, by extending the supported attributes to include data accesses. This patch series, and the future work are parts of the ongoing project [2] for extending DAMON. The project aims to extend DAMON with primitives other than page table accessed bits such as AMD IBS, Intel PEBS, and Arm SPE, to provide more powerful and detailed information like per-CPUs/threads/reads/writes monitoring. Patches Sequence ================ Patch 1 introduces damon_probe->weight for specifying the weights of each attribute. Patches 2-6 extends apply_probe() damon_ops callback to efficiently support the new mode. Patch 7 fixes wrong use of abs() in the regions merge code. Patch 8 extends regions merge function to work with probe hits in the mode. Patch 8 also introduces the function for detecting the mode enablement but always returns false, for safe and incremental changes. Patches 9 and 10 adds user parameters validation to prevent theoretical overflow of probe hits and the weighted sum. Patches 11-14 incrementally update kdamond_fn() to support the mode. Patch 15 completes the mode detection function implementation, so that the new mode really works. Patch 16 introduces a new sysfs file for ABI users. Finally, patches 17-19 respectively updates design, usage and ABI documents for the new feature and interfaces.

2026-08-04mm: provide free_reserved_pages(), removing x86 variantDavid Hildenbrand (Arm)1-2/+6
Let's extend free_reserved_page() in page_alloc.c to free_reserved_pages(), dropping the custom x86 variant. The common-code variant will consume an order, so adjust the x86 callers accordingly. Make free_reserved_pages() assume that we are freeing ordinary high-order pages, just with the special "reserved" flavor. The target use case for now is freeing vmemmap PMD pages. Set the refcount directly to 0 (instead of 1) and call __free_frozen_pages(). Set the page count to 0 before clearing PG_reserved, so someone checking PG_reserved (and not finding it set) to then try grabbing a ref would not suddenly have that ref be dropped. That is arguably cleaner and safer than the old way of doing it. Add some kerneldoc. Use a single adjust_managed_page_count() call.

2026-08-04userfaultfd: add UFFD_FEATURE_RWP_ASYNC for async fault resolutionKiryl Shutsemau (Meta)1-0/+6
Sync RWP delivers a message and blocks the faulting thread until the handler resolves the fault. For working-set tracking the VMM does not need the message: it just needs to know, at scan time, which pages were touched. Async RWP serves that use case — the kernel restores access in-place and the faulting thread continues without blocking. The VMM reconstructs the access pattern after the fact via PAGEMAP_SCAN: pages whose uffd bit is still set (inverted PAGE_IS_ACCESSED) were not re-accessed since the last RWP cycle. Worth calling out: async resolution upgrades writable private anon PTEs via pte_mkwrite() when can_change_pte_writable() allows, mirroring do_numa_page(). Without it, every re-access of an RWP'd writable page would COW-fault a second time. UFFD_FEATURE_RWP_ASYNC requires UFFD_FEATURE_RWP.

2026-08-04mm/userfaultfd: add RWP fault delivery and expose UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_RWPKiryl Shutsemau (Meta)2-0/+31
Wire the fault side of read-write protection tracking and turn the userspace interface on. An RWP-protected PTE is PAGE_NONE with the uffd bit set. The PROT_NONE triggers a fault on any access; the uffd bit distinguishes it from plain mprotect(PROT_NONE) or NUMA hinting. Fault dispatch, per level: PTE handle_pte_fault() -> do_uffd_rwp() PMD __handle_mm_fault() -> do_huge_pmd_uffd_rwp() hugetlb hugetlb_fault() -> hugetlb_handle_userfault() The RWP branches gate on userfaultfd_pte_rwp() / userfaultfd_huge_pmd_rwp() (VM_UFFD_RWP plus the uffd bit) and fall through to do_numa_page() / do_huge_pmd_numa_page() otherwise. Each delivers a UFFD_PAGEFAULT_FLAG_RWP message through handle_userfault(); the handler resolves it with UFFDIO_RWPROTECT clearing MODE_RWP. userfaultfd_must_wait() and userfaultfd_huge_must_wait() add matching protnone+uffd waiters so sync-mode fault handlers block correctly. Expose the UAPI: UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_RWP -> UFFD_API_REGISTER_MODES UFFD_FEATURE_RWP -> UFFD_API_FEATURES _UFFDIO_RWPROTECT -> UFFD_API_RANGE_IOCTLS UFFD_API_RANGE_IOCTLS_BASIC UFFD_FEATURE_RWP is masked out at UFFDIO_API time when PROT_NONE is not available or VM_UFFD_RWP aliases VM_NONE (32-bit), so userspace never sees an advertised-but-broken feature. Works on anonymous, shmem, and hugetlb memory.

2026-08-04userfaultfd: add UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_RWP and UFFDIO_RWPROTECT plumbingKiryl Shutsemau (Meta)1-0/+2
Add the userspace interface for read-write protection tracking: - UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_RWP register a range for RWP tracking - UFFD_FEATURE_RWP capability bit - UFFDIO_RWPROTECT install / remove RWP on a range Introduce CONFIG_USERFAULTFD_RWP, auto-selected on 64-bit kernels with ARCH_HAS_PTE_PROTNONE and HAVE_ARCH_USERFAULTFD_WP. The symbol gates VM_UFFD_RWP (previously aliased to VM_NONE) and the smaps/trace-flag hooks added in the preparatory patches; without it the UAPI bits added here have nothing to drive and would be unreachable. Registration sets VM_UFFD_RWP on the VMA. Combining MODE_WP with MODE_RWP is rejected because both modes claim the uffd PTE bit. UFFDIO_RWPROTECT is the bidirectional counterpart of UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT: - MODE_RWP change_protection() with MM_CP_UFFD_RWP installs PAGE_NONE and sets the uffd bit on present PTEs - !MODE_RWP change_protection() with MM_CP_UFFD_RWP_RESOLVE restores vma->vm_page_prot and clears the bit userfaultfd_clear_vma() runs the same resolve pass on unregister so RWP state cannot outlive the uffd. Re-registering a range must not drop a mode that installs per-PTE markers (WP or RWP); doing so returns -EBUSY. This also closes a pre-existing window where re-registering without MODE_WP would strand uffd-wp markers: before, those caused extra write-faults but were otherwise benign; with RWP preservation in place, a subsequent mprotect() on a VM_UFFD_RWP VMA would silently promote the stale markers to RWP. The feature is not yet advertised. UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_RWP, UFFD_FEATURE_RWP, and _UFFDIO_RWPROTECT are intentionally absent from UFFD_API_REGISTER_MODES, UFFD_API_FEATURES, and UFFD_API_RANGE_IOCTLS, so UFFDIO_API masks them out and the register-mode validator rejects the bit. The follow-up patch adds fault dispatch and exposes the UAPI.

2026-08-04mm: handle VM_UFFD_RWP in khugepaged, rmap, and GUPKiryl Shutsemau (Meta)1-1/+15
Three mm paths outside the fault handler gate on the uffd PTE bit today: khugepaged (skip collapse on ranges carrying markers), rmap (cap unmap batching), and GUP (force a fault through gup_can_follow_protnone). Extend each to treat VM_UFFD_RWP the same as VM_UFFD_WP; otherwise per-PTE RWP state is silently destroyed or bypassed. khugepaged: try_collapse_pte_mapped_thp() and file_backed_vma_is_retractable() already refuse to collapse or retract page tables on ranges carrying the uffd PTE bit. Broaden the VMA predicate from userfaultfd_wp() to userfaultfd_protected() so VM_UFFD_RWP ranges get the same protection. hpage_collapse_scan_pmd() needs no change — its existing pte_uffd() check already catches an RWP PTE because it carries the uffd bit. rmap: folio_unmap_pte_batch() caps batching at 1 for VM_UFFD_RWP so the restore path handles each PTE with its own marker. GUP: gup_can_follow_protnone() forces a fault on VM_UFFD_RWP VMAs regardless of FOLL_HONOR_NUMA_FAULT. RWP uses protnone as an access-tracking marker, not for NUMA hinting, so any GUP — read or write — must go through the userfaultfd fault path.

2026-08-04mm: preserve RWP marker across PTE rewritesKiryl Shutsemau (Meta)1-1/+2
The uffd PTE bit must survive any kernel path that rewrites a PTE on a VM_UFFD_RWP VMA, otherwise the marker that carries PAGE_NONE semantics is silently dropped and the next access leaks past RWP tracking. Wire the preservation through every path that rewrites a VM_UFFD_RWP PTE. Swap and device-exclusive: do_swap_page(), restore_exclusive_pte(), and unuse_pte() (swapoff()) re-apply PAGE_NONE when the swap PTE carries the uffd bit and the VMA has VM_UFFD_RWP. Migration: remove_migration_pte() and remove_migration_pmd() do the same after the migration entry is replaced with a real PTE/PMD. Fork: __copy_present_ptes(), copy_present_page(), copy_nonpresent_pte(), copy_huge_pmd(), copy_huge_non_present_pmd(), and copy_hugetlb_page_range() keep the uffd bit on the child when the destination VMA has VM_UFFD_RWP, matching the existing VM_UFFD_WP handling. Add VM_UFFD_RWP to VM_COPY_ON_FORK so the flag itself propagates. mprotect(): change_pte_range() and change_huge_pmd() restore PAGE_NONE after pte_modify()/pmd_modify() have recomputed the base protection from a (possibly user-changed) vm_page_prot. pte_modify() preserves _PAGE_UFFD, so the bit stays; we just have to force PAGE_NONE back on top.

Preparatory patch. Add the change_protection() primitive that userfaultfd RWP will use. An RWP-protected PTE is PAGE_NONE with the uffd PTE bit set. The PROT_NONE half makes the CPU fault on any access; the uffd bit distinguishes an RWP fault from a plain mprotect(PROT_NONE) or NUMA hinting fault. MM_CP_UFFD_WP and MM_CP_UFFD_RWP share the same PTE bit, so the two cannot be used together on the same range. Two new change_protection() flags: MM_CP_UFFD_RWP install PAGE_NONE and set the uffd bit MM_CP_UFFD_RWP_RESOLVE restore vma->vm_page_prot, clear the uffd bit Both are wired through change_pte_range(), change_huge_pmd(), and hugetlb_change_protection() so anon, shmem, THP, and hugetlb all share the same semantics.

Preparatory patch for userfaultfd read-write protection (RWP). RWP extends userfaultfd protection from plain write-protection (WP) to full read-write protection: accesses to an RWP-protected range -- reads as well as writes -- trap through userfaultfd. Reserve VM_UFFD_RWP, add the userfaultfd_rwp() and userfaultfd_protected() helpers, and wire up the smaps "ur" entry and the trace-flag table the rest of the series will use. The flag is gated on CONFIG_USERFAULTFD_RWP, which is introduced together with the UAPI in a later patch; until then VM_UFFD_RWP aliases VM_NONE and every downstream check folds to dead code. Nothing sets or queries the flag yet.

2026-08-04mm: decouple protnone helpers from CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCINGKiryl Shutsemau (Meta)1-10/+22
Patch series "userfaultfd: working set tracking for VM guest memory", v10. This series adds userfaultfd support for tracking the working set of VM guest memory, so a VMM can identify hot pages and reclaim cold ones to tiered or remote storage. This patch (of 15): pte_protnone() and pmd_protnone() detect present-but-inaccessible page table entries. This capability is useful beyond NUMA balancing -- for example, userfaultfd working set tracking uses protnone PTEs to track page access without unmapping pages. Introduce CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_PTE_PROTNONE to decouple the protnone PTE infrastructure from CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING. The six architectures that support protnone PTEs (x86_64, arm64, powerpc, s390, riscv, loongarch) now select this option, and CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING depends on it. No functional change -- the same set of architectures continues to have working protnone support, but the infrastructure is now available independently of NUMA balancing.

2026-08-04mm/swap: colocate page-cluster sysctl with swap readaheadJianyue Wu1-1/+0
Patch series "mm: clean up folio LRU and swap declarations", v9. This series splits folio LRU and swap cleanup into three steps: - move the page-cluster sysctl next to swap readahead in mm/swap_state.c - rename mm/swap.c to mm/folio.c after the swap-specific code moves out - move MM-internal reclaim declarations out of include/linux/swap.h After this series, swap cache and swap-in readahead stay in mm/swap_state.c. Folio LRU helpers live in mm/folio.c, and MM-internal reclaim/workingset declarations move from include/linux/swap.h to mm/internal.h (public LRU helpers used outside mm/ remain in swap.h). The first patch handles the swap-specific page-cluster state before the file rename, so the rename commit only carries folio LRU code. The last patch keeps the LRU helpers used outside mm/ in include/linux/swap.h and moves the internal reclaim/workingset declarations to mm/internal.h. This patch (of 3): page_cluster and the vm.page-cluster sysctl are only used by swap-in readahead in swap_state.c. Move them out of swap.c together with swap_readahead_setup(), and make page_cluster static to that file. Rename swap_setup() while moving it as well. The helper is internal to MM and now only sets up swap readahead defaults and its sysctl hook, so the more specific name matches its reduced scope. Call swap_readahead_setup() from swap_init() after moving it, keeping the readahead defaults and sysctl registration with swap_state.c initialization. swap_setup() previously lived in mm/swap.c, which is built unconditionally, so the vm.page-cluster sysctl was registered also on CONFIG_SWAP=n kernels. After moving the setup into swap_state.c, which is built only when CONFIG_SWAP is enabled, vm.page-cluster is no longer registered there.

2026-08-04percpu: replace __ASSEMBLY__ with __ASSEMBLER__ in percpu-defs.h header fileThomas Huth1-2/+2
While the GCC and Clang compilers already define __ASSEMBLER__ automatically when compiling assembly code, __ASSEMBLY__ is a macro that only gets defined by the Makefiles in the kernel. This can be very confusing when switching between userspace and kernelspace coding, or when dealing with uapi headers that rather should use __ASSEMBLER__ instead. So let's standardize now on the __ASSEMBLER__ macro that is provided by the compilers. This is a completely mechanical patch (done with a simple "sed -i" statement.

2026-08-05iio: core: add IIO_VAL_DECIMAL64_FEMTO format typeWadim Mueller1-0/+1
Extend the IIO_VAL_DECIMAL64_* family with a femto-scaled variant (scale 15), following the existing MILLI/MICRO/NANO/PICO pattern. Both the read formatting path in __iio_format_value() and the write parsing path in iio_write_channel_info() (via kstrtodec64()) already derive their scale from "type - IIO_VAL_DECIMAL64_BASE", so the new type only needs to be added to the respective switch cases. This is needed by drivers reporting very small SI quantities where the existing pico scale loses precision. For example the Sensirion SLF3S liquid flow sensor reports its volume-flow scale in m^3/s, where the SLF3S-0600F scale is ~1.667e-12 m^3/s: at pico scale only a single significant digit survives, whereas femto scale preserves the full sensor resolution.

2026-08-04remoteproc: fix OOB read via signed offset in rsc_table_for_each_entry()Mukesh Ojha1-6/+11
table->offset[i] is a u32 from firmware, but was stored into a signed int. A crafted offset like 0xFFFFFFF0 becomes -16, placing hdr 16 bytes before the table buffer. The subsequent avail check was bypassed because the negative int was promoted to a large size_t in the expression "table_sz - offset - sizeof(*hdr)", yielding a large positive avail and letting the out-of-bounds hdr->type read proceed undetected. Store the offset as u32 and validate it with unsigned comparisons before any pointer arithmetic.

2026-08-04security: lsm: allow LSMs to register for late_initcall_sync initYeoreum Yun1-0/+2
There are situations where LSMs have dependencies that might mean they want to be initialised later in the boot process, to ensure those dependencies are available. In particular there are some TPM setups (Arm FF-A devices, SPI attached TPMs) required by IMA which are not guaranteed to be initialised for regular initcall_late. Add an initcall_late_sync option that can be used in these situations.

For example branching topologies, where a single input routed to multiple output endpoints. The already configured part of the graph places constraint on how the new branch can be configured. Handling of process modules also updated to be able to 'guess' what parameters can be changed by the module and allow flexible operation.
