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

Pull audit updates from Paul Moore:
- Always record AUDIT_ANOM events when auditing is enabled.
Prior to this patch we only recorded AUDIT_ANOM events if auditing
was enabled and the admin/distro had explicitly configured audit
beyond the defaults. Considering that AUDIT_ANOM events are anomolous
events considered to be "security relevant", it seems wise to record
these events as long as auditing is enabled, even if the system is
running with a default audit configuration.
- Mark the audit_log_vformat() function with the __printf() attribute
to quiet GCC.
* tag 'audit-pr-20250527' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pcmoore/audit:

Pull integrity updates from Mimi Zohar:
"Carrying the IMA measurement list across kexec is not a new feature,
but is updated to address a couple of issues:
- Carrying the IMA measurement list across kexec required knowing
apriori all the file measurements between the "kexec load" and
"kexec execute" in order to measure them before the "kexec load".
Any delay between the "kexec load" and "kexec exec" exacerbated the
problem.
- Any file measurements post "kexec load" were not carried across
kexec, resulting in the measurement list being out of sync with the
TPM PCR.
With these changes, the buffer for the IMA measurement list is still
allocated at "kexec load", but copying the IMA measurement list is
deferred to after quiescing the TPM.
Two new kexec critical data records are defined"

Pull sched_ext updates from Tejun Heo:
- More in-kernel idle CPU selection improvements. Expand topology
awareness coverage add scx_bpf_select_cpu_and() to allow more
flexibility. The idle CPU selection kfuncs can now be called from
unlocked contexts too.
- A bunch of reorganization changes to lay the foundation for multiple
hierarchical scheduler support. This isn't ready yet and the included
changes don't make meaningful behavior differences. One notable
change is replacing some static_key tests with dynamic tests as the
test results may differ depending on the scheduler instance. This
isn't expected to cause meaningful performance difference.
- Other minor and doc updates.
- There were multiple patches in for-6.15-fixes which conflicted with
changes in for-6.16. for-6.15-fixes were pulled three times into
for-6.16 to resolve the conflicts.

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

Pull sysctl updates from Joel Granados:
- Move kern_table members out of kernel/sysctl.c
Moved a subset (tracing, panic, signal, stack_tracer and sparc) out
of the kern_table array. The goal is for kern_table to only have
sysctl elements. All this increases modularity by placing the
ctl_tables closer to where they are used while reducing the chances
of merge conflicts in kernel/sysctl.c.

Pull dma-mapping updates from Marek Szyprowski:
"New two step DMA mapping API, which is is a first step to a long path
to provide alternatives to scatterlist and to remove hacks, abuses and
design mistakes related to scatterlists.
This new approach optimizes some calls to DMA-IOMMU layer and cache
maintenance by batching them, reduces memory usage as it is no need to
store mapped DMA addresses to unmap them, and reduces some function
call overhead. It is a combination effort of many people, lead and
developed by Christoph Hellwig and Leon Romanovsky"

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"Once again, the changes are dominated by cpufreq updates, but this
time the majority of them are cpufreq core changes, mostly related to
the introduction of policy locking guards and __free() usage, and
fixes related to boost handling.
Still, there is also a significant update of the intel_pstate driver
making it register an energy model when running on a hybrid platform
which is used for enabling energy-aware scheduling (EAS) if the driver
operates in the passive mode (and schedutil is used as the cpufreq
governor for all CPUs which is the passive mode default).
There are some amd-pstate driver updates too, for a good measure,
including the "Requested CPU Min frequency" BIOS option support and
new online/offline callbacks.
In the cpuidle space, the most significant change is the addition of a
C1 demotion on/off sysfs knob to intel_idle which should help some
users to configure their systems more precisely. There is also the
conversion of the PSCI cpuidle driver to a faux device one and there
are two small updates of cpuidle governors.
Device power management is also modified quite a bit, especially the
handling of devices with asynchronous suspend and resume enabled
during system transitions. They are now going to be handled more
asynchronously during suspend transitions and somewhat less
aggressively during resume transitions.
Apart from the above, the operating performance points (OPP) library
is now going to use mutex locking guards and scope-based cleanup
helpers and there is the usual bunch of assorted fixes and code
cleanups.
Specifics:
- Fix potential division-by-zero error in em_compute_costs() (Yaxiong
Tian)
- Fix typos in energy model documentation and example driver code
(Moon Hee Lee, Atul Kumar Pant)

for adjusting a CPU energy model after adjusting the capacity of
the given CPU to it (Rafael Wysocki)
- Refactor cpufreq_online(), add and use cpufreq policy locking
guards, use __free() in policy reference counting, and clean up
core cpufreq code on top of that (Rafael Wysocki)

Kumar)
- Fix des_perf clamping with max_perf in amd_pstate_update()

rename and use the existing amd_pstate_epp callbacks in it
(Dhananjay Ugwekar)

The main failure reason is due to r10 in precision backtracking bookkeeping.
Actually r10 is always precise and there is no need to add it for the precision
backtracking bookkeeping.
One way to fix the issue is to prevent bt_set_reg() if any src/dst reg is
r10. Andrii suggested to go with push_insn_history() approach to avoid
explicitly checking r10 in backtrack_insn().
This patch added push_insn_history() support for cond_jmp like 'rX <op> rY'
operations. In check_cond_jmp_op(), if any of rX or rY is a stack pointer,
push_insn_history() will record such information, and later backtrack_insn()
will do bt_set_reg() properly for those register(s).

bpf_map_lookup_percpu_elem() helper is also available for sleepable bpf
program. When BPF JIT is disabled or under 32-bit host,
bpf_map_lookup_percpu_elem() will not be inlined. Using it in a
sleepable bpf program will trigger the warning in
bpf_map_lookup_percpu_elem(), because the bpf program only holds
rcu_read_lock_trace lock. Therefore, add the missed check.

When creating bpf program, 'fp->jit_requested' depends on bpf_jit_enable.
This issue is triggered because of CONFIG_BPF_JIT_ALWAYS_ON is not set
and bpf_jit_enable is set to 1, causing the arch to attempt JIT the prog,
but jit failed due to FAULT_INJECTION. As a result, incorrectly
treats the program as valid, when the program runs it calls
`__bpf_prog_ret0_warn` and triggers the WARN_ON_ONCE(1).

Marc Suñé (Isovalent, part of Cisco) reported an issue where an
uninitialized variable caused generating bpf prog binary code not
working as expected. The reproducer is in [1] where the flags
“-Wall -Werror” are enabled, but there is no warning as the compiler
takes advantage of uninitialized variable to do aggressive optimization.
The optimized code looks like below:
; {
0: bf 16 00 00 00 00 00 00 r6 = r1
; bpf_printk("Start");
1: 18 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 r1 = 0x0 ll
0000000000000008: R_BPF_64_64 .rodata
3: b4 02 00 00 06 00 00 00 w2 = 0x6
4: 85 00 00 00 06 00 00 00 call 0x6
; DEFINE_FUNC_CTX_POINTER(data)
5: 61 61 4c 00 00 00 00 00 w1 = *(u32 *)(r6 + 0x4c)
; bpf_printk("pre ipv6_hdrlen_offset");
6: 18 01 00 00 06 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 r1 = 0x6 ll
0000000000000030: R_BPF_64_64 .rodata
8: b4 02 00 00 17 00 00 00 w2 = 0x17
9: 85 00 00 00 06 00 00 00 call 0x6
<END>
The verifier will report the following failure:
9: (85) call bpf_trace_printk#6
last insn is not an exit or jmp
The above verifier log does not give a clear hint about how to fix
the problem and user may take quite some time to figure out that
the issue is due to compiler taking advantage of uninitialized variable.
In llvm internals, uninitialized variable usage may generate
'unreachable' IR insn and these 'unreachable' IR insns may indicate
uninitialized variable impact on code optimization. So far, llvm
BPF backend ignores 'unreachable' IR hence the above code is generated.
With clang21 patch [2], those 'unreachable' IR insn are converted
to func __bpf_trap(). In order to maintain proper control flow
graph for bpf progs, [2] also adds an 'exit' insn after bpf_trap()
if __bpf_trap() is the last insn in the function. The new code looks like:
; {
0: bf 16 00 00 00 00 00 00 r6 = r1
; bpf_printk("Start");
1: 18 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 r1 = 0x0 ll

; DEFINE_FUNC_CTX_POINTER(data)
5: 61 61 4c 00 00 00 00 00 w1 = *(u32 *)(r6 + 0x4c)
; bpf_printk("pre ipv6_hdrlen_offset");
6: 18 01 00 00 06 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 r1 = 0x6 ll

9: 85 00 00 00 06 00 00 00 call 0x6
10: 85 10 00 00 ff ff ff ff call -0x1
0000000000000050: R_BPF_64_32 __bpf_trap
11: 95 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 exit
<END>
In kernel, a new kfunc __bpf_trap() is added. During insn
verification, any hit with __bpf_trap() will result in
verification failure. The kernel is able to provide better
log message for debugging.
With llvm patch [2] and without this patch (no __bpf_trap()
kfunc for existing kernel), e.g., for old kernels, the verifier
outputs
10: <invalid kfunc call>
kfunc '__bpf_trap' is referenced but wasn't resolved
Basically, kernel does not support __bpf_trap() kfunc.
This still didn't give clear signals about possible reason.
With llvm patch [2] and with this patch, the verifier outputs
10: (85) call __bpf_trap#74479
unexpected __bpf_trap() due to uninitialized variable?
It gives much better hints for verification failure.

Currently, the verifier has both special_kfunc_set and special_kfunc_list.
When adding a new kfunc usage to the verifier, it is often confusing
about whether special_kfunc_set or special_kfunc_list or both should
add that kfunc. For example, some kfuncs, e.g., bpf_dynptr_from_skb,
bpf_dynptr_clone, bpf_wq_set_callback_impl, does not need to be
in special_kfunc_set.
To avoid potential future confusion, special_kfunc_set is deleted
and btf_id_set_contains(&special_kfunc_set, ...) is removed.
The code is refactored with a new func check_special_kfunc(),
which contains all codes covered by original branch
meta.btf == btf_vmlinux && btf_id_set_contains(&special_kfunc_set, meta.func_id)
There is no functionality change.

This open coded iterator allows for more flexibility when creating BPF
programs. It can support output in formats other than text. With an open
coded iterator, a single BPF program can traverse multiple kernel data
structures (now including dmabufs), allowing for more efficient analysis
of kernel data compared to multiple reads from procfs, sysfs, or
multiple traditional BPF iterator invocations.

The dmabuf iterator traverses the list of all DMA buffers.
DMA buffers are refcounted through their associated struct file. A
reference is taken on each buffer as the list is iterated to ensure each
buffer persists for the duration of the bpf program execution without
holding the list mutex.

- Switch the MSI descriptor locking to lock guards
- Replace a broken and naive implementation of PCI/MSI-X control word
updates in the PCI/TPH driver with a properly serialized variant in
the PCI/MSI core code.
- Remove the MSI descriptor abuse in the SCCI/UFS/QCOM driver by
replacing the direct access to the MSI descriptors with the proper
API function calls. People will never understand that APIs exist
for a reason...
- Provide core infrastructre for the upcoming PCI endpoint library
extensions. Currently limited to ARM GICv3+, but in theory
extensible to other architectures.
- Provide a MSI domain::teardown() callback, which allows drivers to
undo the effects of the prepare() callback.
- Move the MSI domain::prepare() callback invocation to domain
creation time to avoid redundant (and in case of ARM/GIC-V3-ITS
confusing) invocations on every allocation.
In combination with the new teardown callback this removes some
ugly hacks in the GIC-V3-ITS driver, which pretended to work around
the short comings of the core code so far. With this update the
code is correct by design and implementation.
- Make the irqchip MSI library globally available, provide a MSI
parent domain creation helper and convert a bunch of (PCI/)MSI
drivers over to the modern MSI parent mechanism. This is the first
step to get rid of at least one incarnation of the three PCI/MSI
management schemes.

Pull irq core updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Updates for the generic interrupt subsystem core code:
- Address a long standing subtle problem in the CPU hotplug code for
affinity-managed interrupts.
Affinity-managed interrupts are shut down by the core code when the
last CPU in the affinity set goes offline and started up again when
the first CPU in the affinity set becomes online again.
This unfortunately does not take into account whether an interrupt
has been disabled before the last CPU goes offline and starts up
the interrupt unconditionally when the first CPU becomes online
again.
That's obviously not what drivers expect.
Address this by preserving the disabled state for affinity-managed
interrupts accross these CPU hotplug operations. All non-managed
interrupts are not affected by this because startup/shutdown is
coupled to request/free_irq() which obviously has to reset state.
- Support three-cell scheme interrupts to allow GPIO drivers to
specify interrupts from an already existing scheme
- Switch the interrupt subsystem core to lock guards. This gets rid
of quite some copy & pasta boilerplate code all over the place.
- The usual small cleanups and improvements all over the place"

Pull pidfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"Features:
- Allow handing out pidfds for reaped tasks for AF_UNIX SO_PEERPIDFD
socket option
SO_PEERPIDFD is a socket option that allows to retrieve a pidfd for
the process that called connect() or listen(). This is heavily used
to safely authenticate clients in userspace avoiding security bugs
due to pid recycling races (dbus, polkit, systemd, etc.)
SO_PEERPIDFD currently doesn't support handing out pidfds if the
sk->sk_peer_pid thread-group leader has already been reaped. In
this case it currently returns EINVAL. Userspace still wants to get
a pidfd for a reaped process to have a stable handle it can pass
on. This is especially useful now that it is possible to retrieve
exit information through a pidfd via the PIDFD_GET_INFO ioctl()'s
PIDFD_INFO_EXIT flag
Another summary has been provided by David Rheinsberg:
> A pidfd can outlive the task it refers to, and thus user-space
> must already be prepared that the task underlying a pidfd is
> gone at the time they get their hands on the pidfd. For
> instance, resolving the pidfd to a PID via the fdinfo must be
> prepared to read `-1`.
>
> Despite user-space knowing that a pidfd might be stale, several
> kernel APIs currently add another layer that checks for this. In
> particular, SO_PEERPIDFD returns `EINVAL` if the peer-task was
> already reaped, but returns a stale pidfd if the task is reaped
> immediately after the respective alive-check.
>
> This has the unfortunate effect that user-space now has two ways
> to check for the exact same scenario: A syscall might return
> EINVAL/ESRCH/... *or* the pidfd might be stale, even though
> there is no particular reason to distinguish both cases. This
> also propagates through user-space APIs, which pass on pidfds.
> They must be prepared to pass on `-1` *or* the pidfd, because
> there is no guaranteed way to get a stale pidfd from the kernel.
>
> Userspace must already deal with a pidfd referring to a reaped
> task as the task may exit and get reaped at any time will there
> are still many pidfds referring to it
In order to allow handing out reaped pidfd SO_PEERPIDFD needs to
ensure that PIDFD_INFO_EXIT information is available whenever a
pidfd for a reaped task is created by PIDFD_INFO_EXIT. The uapi
promises that reaped pidfds are only handed out if it is guaranteed
that the caller sees the exit information:
TEST_F(pidfd_info, success_reaped)
{
struct pidfd_info info = {
.mask = PIDFD_INFO_CGROUPID | PIDFD_INFO_EXIT,
};
/*
* Process has already been reaped and PIDFD_INFO_EXIT been set.
* Verify that we can retrieve the exit status of the process.
*/
ASSERT_EQ(ioctl(self->child_pidfd4, PIDFD_GET_INFO, &info), 0);
ASSERT_FALSE(!!(info.mask & PIDFD_INFO_CREDS));
ASSERT_TRUE(!!(info.mask & PIDFD_INFO_EXIT));
ASSERT_TRUE(WIFEXITED(info.exit_code));
ASSERT_EQ(WEXITSTATUS(info.exit_code), 0);
}
To hand out pidfds for reaped processes we thus allocate a pidfs
entry for the relevant sk->sk_peer_pid at the time the
sk->sk_peer_pid is stashed and drop it when the socket is
destroyed. This guarantees that exit information will always be
recorded for the sk->sk_peer_pid task and we can hand out pidfds
for reaped processes
- Hand a pidfd to the coredump usermode helper process
Give userspace a way to instruct the kernel to install a pidfd for
the crashing process into the process started as a usermode helper.
There's still tricky race-windows that cannot be easily or
sometimes not closed at all by userspace. There's various ways like
looking at the start time of a process to make sure that the
usermode helper process is started after the crashing process but
it's all very very brittle and fraught with peril
The crashed-but-not-reaped process can be killed by userspace
before coredump processing programs like systemd-coredump have had
time to manually open a PIDFD from the PID the kernel provides
them, which means they can be tricked into reading from an
arbitrary process, and they run with full privileges as they are
usermode helper processes
Even if that specific race-window wouldn't exist it's still the
safest and cleanest way to let the kernel provide the pidfd
directly instead of requiring userspace to do it manually. In
parallel with this commit we already have systemd adding support
for this in [1]
When the usermode helper process is forked we install a pidfd file
descriptor three into the usermode helper's file descriptor table
so it's available to the exec'd program
Since usermode helpers are either children of the system_unbound_wq
workqueue or kthreadd we know that the file descriptor table is
empty and can thus always use three as the file descriptor number
Note, that we'll install a pidfd for the thread-group leader even
if a subthread is calling do_coredump(). We know that task linkage
hasn't been removed yet and even if this @current isn't the actual
thread-group leader we know that the thread-group leader cannot be
reaped until
@current has exited
- Allow telling when a task has not been found from finding the wrong
task when creating a pidfd
We currently report EINVAL whenever a struct pid has no tasked
attached anymore thereby conflating two concepts:
(1) The task has already been reaped
(2) The caller requested a pidfd for a thread-group leader but the
pid actually references a struct pid that isn't used as a
thread-group leader
This is causing issues for non-threaded workloads as in where they
expect ESRCH to be reported, not EINVAL
So allow userspace to reliably distinguish between (1) and (2)
- Make it possible to detect when a pidfs entry would outlive the
struct pid it pinned
- Add a range of new selftests
Cleanups:
- Remove unneeded NULL check from pidfd_prepare() for passed struct
pid
- Avoid pointless reference count bump during release_task()
Fixes:
- Various fixes to the pidfd and coredump selftests
- Fix error handling for replace_fd() when spawning coredump usermode

Pull vfs freezing updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains various filesystem freezing related work for this cycle:
- Allow the power subsystem to support filesystem freeze for suspend
and hibernate.
Now all the pieces are in place to actually allow the power
subsystem to freeze/thaw filesystems during suspend/resume.
Filesystems are only frozen and thawed if the power subsystem does
actually own the freeze.
If the filesystem is already frozen by the time we've frozen all
userspace processes we don't care to freeze it again. That's
userspace's job once the process resumes. We only actually freeze
filesystems if we absolutely have to and we ignore other failures
to freeze.
We could bubble up errors and fail suspend/resume if the error
isn't EBUSY (aka it's already frozen) but I don't think that this
is worth it. Filesystem freezing during suspend/resume is
best-effort. If the user has 500 ext4 filesystems mounted and 4
fail to freeze for whatever reason then we simply skip them.
What we have now is already a big improvement and let's see how we
fare with it before making our lives even harder (and uglier) than
we have to.
- Allow efivars to support freeze and thaw
Allow efivarfs to partake to resync variable state during system
hibernation and suspend. Add freeze/thaw support.
This is a pretty straightforward implementation. We simply add
regular freeze/thaw support for both userspace and the kernel.
efivars is the first pseudofilesystem that adds support for
filesystem freezing and thawing.
The simplicity comes from the fact that we simply always resync
variable state after efivarfs has been frozen. It doesn't matter
whether that's because of suspend, userspace initiated freeze or
hibernation. Efivars is simple enough that it doesn't matter that
we walk all dentries. There are no directories and there aren't
insane amounts of entries and both freeze/thaw are already
heavy-handed operations. If userspace initiated a freeze/thaw cycle
they would need CAP_SYS_ADMIN in the initial user namespace (as
that's where efivarfs is mounted) so it can't be triggered by
random userspace. IOW, we really really don't care"

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the usual selections of misc updates for this cycle.
Features:
- Use folios for symlinks in the page cache
FUSE already uses folios for its symlinks. Mirror that conversion
in the generic code and the NFS code. That lets us get rid of a few
folio->page->folio conversions in this path, and some of the few
remaining users of read_cache_page() / read_mapping_page()
- Try and make a few filesystem operations killable on the VFS
inode->i_mutex level
- Add sysctl vfs_cache_pressure_denom for bulk file operations
Some workloads need to preserve more dentries than we currently
allow through out sysctl interface
A HDFS servers with 12 HDDs per server, on a HDFS datanode startup
involves scanning all files and caching their metadata (including
dentries and inodes) in memory. Each HDD contains approximately 2
million files, resulting in a total of ~20 million cached dentries
after initialization
To minimize dentry reclamation, they set vfs_cache_pressure to 1.
Despite this configuration, memory pressure conditions can still
trigger reclamation of up to 50% of cached dentries, reducing the
cache from 20 million to approximately 10 million entries. During
the subsequent cache rebuild period, any HDFS datanode restart
operation incurs substantial latency penalties until full cache
recovery completes
To maintain service stability, more dentries need to be preserved
during memory reclamation. The current minimum reclaim ratio (1/100
of total dentries) remains too aggressive for such workload. This
patch introduces vfs_cache_pressure_denom for more granular cache
pressure control
The configuration [vfs_cache_pressure=1,
vfs_cache_pressure_denom=10000] effectively maintains the full 20
million dentry cache under memory pressure, preventing datanode
restart performance degradation
- Avoid some jumps in inode_permission() using likely()/unlikely()
- Avid a memory access which is most likely a cache miss when
descending into devcgroup_inode_permission()
- Add fastpath predicts for stat() and fdput()
- Anonymous inodes currently don't come with a proper mode causing
issues in the kernel when we want to add useful VFS debug assert.
Fix that by giving them a proper mode and masking it off when we
report it to userspace which relies on them not having any mode
- Anonymous inodes currently allow to change inode attributes because
the VFS falls back to simple_setattr() if i_op->setattr isn't
implemented. This means the ownership and mode for every single
user of anon_inode_inode can be changed. Block that as it's either
useless or actively harmful. If specific ownership is needed the
respective subsystem should allocate anonymous inodes from their
own private superblock
- Raise SB_I_NODEV and SB_I_NOEXEC on the anonymous inode superblock
- Add proper tests for anonymous inode behavior
- Make it easy to detect proper anonymous inodes and to ensure that
we can detect them in codepaths such as readahead()
Cleanups:
- Port pidfs to the new anon_inode_{g,s}etattr() helpers
- Try to remove the uselib() system call
- Add unlikely branch hint return path for poll
- Add unlikely branch hint on return path for core_sys_select
- Don't allow signals to interrupt getdents copying for fuse
- Provide a size hint to dir_context for during readdir()

Pull vfs directory lookup updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains cleanups for the lookup_one*() family of helpers.
We expose a set of functions with names containing "lookup_one_len"
and others without the "_len". This difference has nothing to do with
"len". It's rater a historical accident that can be confusing.
The functions without "_len" take a "mnt_idmap" pointer. This is found
in the "vfsmount" and that is an important question when choosing
which to use: do you have a vfsmount, or are you "inside" the
filesystem. A related question is "is permission checking relevant
here?".
nfsd and cachefiles *do* have a vfsmount but *don't* use the non-_len
functions. They pass nop_mnt_idmap and refuse to work on filesystems
which have any other idmap.
This work changes nfsd and cachefile to use the lookup_one family of
functions and to explictily pass &nop_mnt_idmap which is consistent
with all other vfs interfaces used where &nop_mnt_idmap is explicitly
passed.
The remaining uses of the "_one" functions do not require permission
checks so these are renamed to be "_noperm" and the permission
checking is removed.
This series also changes these lookup function to take a qstr instead
of separate name and len. In many cases this simplifies the call"

When module load fails after memory for codetag section is ready, codetag
section memory will not be properly released. This causes memory leak,
and if next module load happens to get the same module address, codetag
may pick the uninitialized section when manipulating tags during module
unload, and leads to "unable to handle page fault" BUG.

User space needs access to kernel BTF for many modern features of BPF.
Right now each process needs to read the BTF blob either in pieces or

remap_pfn_range is used instead of vm_insert_page due to aarch64

BPF schedulers that use both builtin CPU idle mechanism and
ops.update_idle() may want to use the latter to create interlocking between
ops.enqueue() and CPU idle transitions so that either ops.enqueue() sees the
idle bit or ops.update_idle() sees the task queued somewhere. This can
prevent race conditions where CPUs go idle while tasks are waiting in DSQs.
For such interlocking to work, ops.update_idle() must be called after
builtin CPU masks are updated. Relocate the invocation. Currently, there are
no ordering requirements on transitions from idle and this relocation isn't
expected to make meaningful differences in that direction.
This also makes the ops.update_idle() behavior semantically consistent:
any action performed in this callback should be able to override the
builtin idle state, not the other way around.

Other subsystems may make use of the cgroup hierarchy with the cgroup_bpf
support being one such example. For such a feature, it's useful to be able
to hook into cgroup creation and destruction paths to perform
feature-specific initializations and cleanups.
Add cgroup_lifetime_notifier which generates CGROUP_LIFETIME_ONLINE and
CGROUP_LIFETIME_OFFLINE events whenever cgroups are created and destroyed,
respectively.
The next patch will convert cgroup_bpf to use the new notifier and other
uses are planned.

prepartion, reorganize cgroup_create() a bit so that the new cgroup is fully
initialized before any outside changes are made.
- cgrp->ancestors[] initialization and the hierarchical nr_descendants and
nr_frozen_descendants updates were in the same loop. Separate them out and
do the former earlier and do the latter later.
- Relocate cgroup_bpf_inherit() call so that it's after all cgroup
initializations are complete.
