git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/xiang/erofs Pull erofs updates from Gao Xiang: "In this cycle, inode page cache sharing among filesystems on the same machine is now supported, which is particularly useful for high-density hosts running tens of thousands of containers. In addition, we fully isolate the EROFS core on-disk format from other optional encoded layouts since the core on-disk part is designed to be simple, effective, and secure. Users can use the core format to build unique golden immutable images and import their filesystem trees directly from raw block devices via DMA, page-mapped DAX devices, and/or file-backed mounts without having to worry about unnecessary intrinsic consistency issues found in other generic filesystems by design. However, the full vision is still working in progress and will spend more time to achieve final goals. There are other improvements and bug fixes as usual, as listed below: - Support inode page cache sharing among filesystems - Formally separate optional encoded (aka compressed) inode layouts (and the implementations) from the EROFS core on-disk aligned plain format for future zero-trust security usage - Improve performance by caching the fact that an inode does not have a POSIX ACL - Improve LZ4 decompression error reporting - Enable LZMA by default and promote DEFLATE and Zstandard algorithms out of EXPERIMENTAL status - Switch to inode_set_cached_link() to cache symlink lengths - random bugfixes and minor cleanups" * tag 'erofs-for-7.0-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/xiang/erofs: (31 commits) erofs: fix UAF issue for file-backed mounts w/ directio option erofs: update compression algorithm status erofs: fix inline data read failure for ztailpacking pclusters erofs: avoid some unnecessary #ifdefs erofs: handle end of filesystem properly for file-backed mounts erofs: separate plain and compressed filesystems formally erofs: use inode_set_cached_link() erofs: mark inodes without acls in erofs_read_inode() erofs: implement .fadvise for page cache share erofs: support compressed inodes for page cache share erofs: support unencoded inodes for page cache share erofs: pass inode to trace_erofs_read_folio erofs: introduce the page cache share feature erofs: using domain_id in the safer way erofs: add erofs_inode_set_aops helper to set the aops erofs: support user-defined fingerprint name erofs: decouple `struct erofs_anon_fs_type` fs: Export alloc_empty_backing_file erofs: tidy up erofs_init_inode_xattrs() erofs: add missing documentation about `directio` mount option ...

Scalability and performance: - Rework pid allocation to only take pidmap_lock once instead of twice during alloc_pid(), improving thread creation/teardown throughput by 10-16% depending on false-sharing luck. Pad the namespace refcount to reduce false-sharing - Track file lock presence via a flag in ->i_opflags instead of reading ->i_flctx, avoiding false-sharing with ->i_readcount on open/close hot paths. Measured 4-16% improvement on 24-core open-in-a-loop benchmarks - Use a consume fence in locks_inode_context() to match the store-release/load-consume idiom, eliminating a hardware fence on some architectures - Annotate cdev_lock with __cacheline_aligned_in_smp to prevent false-sharing - Remove a redundant DCACHE_MANAGED_DENTRY check in __follow_mount_rcu() that never fires since the caller already verifies it, eliminating a 100% mispredicted branch - Fix a 100% mispredicted likely() in devcgroup_inode_permission() that became wrong after a prior code reorder Bug fixes and correctness: - Make insert_inode_locked() wait for inode destruction instead of skipping, fixing a corner case where two matching inodes could exist in the hash - Move f_mode initialization before file_ref_init() in alloc_file() to respect the SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU ordering contract - Add a WARN_ON_ONCE guard in try_to_free_buffers() for folios with no buffers attached, preventing a null pointer dereference when AS_RELEASE_ALWAYS is set but no release_folio op exists - Fix select restart_block to store end_time as timespec64, avoiding truncation of tv_sec on 32-bit architectures - Make dump_inode() use get_kernel_nofault() to safely access inode and superblock fields, matching the dump_mapping() pattern API modernization: - Make posix_acl_to_xattr() allocate the buffer internally since every single caller was doing it anyway.

2026-02-09Merge tag 'vfs-7.0-rc1.namespace' of ↵Linus Torvalds
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs Pull vfs mount updates from Christian Brauner: - statmount: accept fd as a parameter Extend struct mnt_id_req with a file descriptor field and a new STATMOUNT_BY_FD flag. When set, statmount() returns mount information for the mount the fd resides on — including detached mounts (unmounted via umount2(MNT_DETACH)). For detached mounts the STATMOUNT_MNT_POINT and STATMOUNT_MNT_NS_ID mask bits are cleared since neither is meaningful. The capability check is skipped for STATMOUNT_BY_FD since holding an fd already implies prior access to the mount and equivalent information is available through fstatfs() and /proc/pid/mountinfo without privilege. Includes comprehensive selftests covering both attached and detached mount cases. - fs: Remove internal old mount API code (1 patch) Now that every in-tree filesystem has been converted to the new mount API, remove all the legacy shim code in fs_context.c that handled unconverted filesystems. This deletes ~280 lines including legacy_init_fs_context(), the legacy_fs_context struct, and associated wrappers. The mount(2) syscall path for userspace remains untouched. Documentation references to the legacy callbacks are cleaned up. - mount: add OPEN_TREE_NAMESPACE to open_tree() Container runtimes currently use CLONE_NEWNS to copy the caller's entire mount namespace — only to then pivot_root() and recursively unmount everything they just copied. With large mount tables and thousands of parallel container launches this creates significant contention on the namespace semaphore. OPEN_TREE_NAMESPACE copies only the specified mount tree (like OPEN_TREE_CLONE) but returns a mount namespace fd instead of a detached mount fd. The new namespace contains the copied tree mounted on top of a clone of the real rootfs. This functions as a combined unshare(CLONE_NEWNS) + pivot_root() in a single syscall. Works with user namespaces: an unshare(CLONE_NEWUSER) followed by OPEN_TREE_NAMESPACE creates a mount namespace owned by the new user namespace. Mount namespace file mounts are excluded from the copy to prevent cycles.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs Pull vfs nullfs update from Christian Brauner: "Add a completely catatonic minimal pseudo filesystem called "nullfs" and make pivot_root() work in the initramfs. Currently pivot_root() does not work on the real rootfs because it cannot be unmounted. Userspace has to recursively delete initramfs contents manually before continuing boot, using the fragile switch_root sequence (overmount + chroot). Add nullfs, a minimal immutable filesystem that serves as the true root of the mount hierarchy. The mutable rootfs (tmpfs/ramfs) is mounted on top of it. This allows userspace to simply: chdir(new_root); pivot_root(".", "."); umount2(".", MNT_DETACH); without the traditional switch_root workarounds. systemd already handles this correctly. It tries pivot_root() first and falls back to MS_MOVE only when that fails. This also means rootfs mounts in unprivileged namespaces no longer need MNT_LOCKED, since the immutable nullfs guarantees nothing can be revealed by unmounting the covering mount. nullfs is a single-instance filesystem (get_tree_single()) marked SB_NOUSER | SB_I_NOEXEC | SB_I_NODEV with an immutable empty root directory. This means sooner or later it can be used to overmount other directories to hide their contents without any additional protection needed. We enable it unconditionally. If we see any real regression we'll hide it behind a boot option. nullfs has extensions beyond this in the future. It will serve as a concept to support the creation of completely empty mount namespaces - which is work coming up in the next cycle" * tag 'vfs-7.0-rc1.nullfs' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs: fs: use nullfs unconditionally as the real rootfs docs: mention nullfs fs: add immutable rootfs fs: add init_pivot_root() fs: ensure that internal tmpfs mount gets mount id zero

This is a poor default: most filesystems never intended to support leases, and the silent fallthrough makes it impossible to distinguish "supports leases" from "never thought about it". This inverts the default. It adds explicit .setlease = generic_setlease; assignments to every in-tree filesystem that should retain lease support, then changes kernel_setlease() to return -EINVAL when ->setlease is NULL.

Since commit 66fa3cedf16a ("fs: Add async write file modification handling") file_update_time_flags() unconditionally returns -EAGAIN when any timestamp needs updating and IOCB_NOWAIT is set. This makes non-blocking direct writes impossible on file systems with granular enough timestamps, which in practice means all of them. This reworks the timestamp update path to propagate IOCB_NOWAIT through ->update_time so that file systems which can update timestamps without blocking are no longer penalized. With that groundwork in place, the core change passes IOCB_NOWAIT into ->update_time and returns -EAGAIN only when the file system indicates it would block.

The linuxrc initrd path was deprecated in 2020 and this series completes its removal. If we see real-life regressions we'll revert. The core change removes handle_initrd() and init_linuxrc() — the entire flow that ran /linuxrc from an initrd, pivoted roots, and handed off to the real root filesystem. With that gone, initrd_load() becomes void (no longer short-circuits prepare_namespace()), rd_load_image() is simplified to always load /initrd.image instead of taking a path, and rd_load_disk() is deleted.

KVM x86 misc changes for 6.20 - Disallow changing the virtual CPU model if L2 is active, for all the same reasons KVM disallows change the model after the first KVM_RUN. - Fix a bug where KVM would incorrectly reject host accesses to PV MSRs that were advertised as supported to userspace when running with KVM_CAP_ENFORCE_PV_FEATURE_CPUID enabled. - Fix a bug where KVM would attempt to read protect guest state (CR3) when configuring an async #PF entry. - Fail the build if EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL or EXPORT_SYMBOL is used in KVM (for x86 only) to enforce usage of EXPORT_SYMBOL_FOR_KVM_INTERNAL. Explicitly allow the few exports that are intended for external usage. - Ignore -EBUSY when checking nested events after a vCPU exits blocking as the WARN is user-triggerable, and because exiting to userspace on -EBUSY does more harm than good in pretty much every situation. - Throw in the towel and drop the WARN on INIT/SIPI being blocked when vCPU is in Wait-For-SIPI, as playing whack-a-mole with syzkaller turned out to be an unwinnable game. - Add support for new Intel instructions that don't require anything beyond enumerating feature flags to userspace. - Grab SRCU when reading PDPTRs in KVM_GET_SREGS2. - Add WARNs to guard against modifying KVM's CPU caps outside of the intended setup flow, as nested VMX in particular is sensitive to unexpected changes in KVM's golden configuration. - Add a quirk to allow userspace to opt-in to actually suppress EOI broadcasts when the suppression feature is enabled by the guest (currently limited to split IRQCHIP, i.e. userspace I/O APIC). Sadly, simply fixing KVM to honor Suppress EOI Broadcasts isn't an option as some userspaces have come to rely on KVM's buggy behavior (KVM advertises Supress EOI Broadcast irrespective of whether or not userspace I/O APIC supports Directed EOIs). - Minor cleanups.

2026-02-08liveupdate: luo_flb: introduce File-Lifecycle-Bound global statePasha Tatashin
Introduce a mechanism for managing global kernel state whose lifecycle is tied to the preservation of one or more files. This is necessary for subsystems where multiple preserved file descriptors depend on a single, shared underlying resource. An example is HugeTLB, where multiple file descriptors such as memfd and guest_memfd may rely on the state of a single HugeTLB subsystem. Preserving this state for each individual file would be redundant and incorrect. The state should be preserved only once when the first file is preserved, and restored/finished only once the last file is handled. This patch introduces File-Lifecycle-Bound (FLB) objects to solve this problem. An FLB is a global, reference-counted object with a defined set of operations: - A file handler (struct liveupdate_file_handler) declares a dependency on one or more FLBs via a new registration function, liveupdate_register_flb(). - When the first file depending on an FLB is preserved, the FLB's .preserve() callback is invoked to save the shared global state. The reference count is then incremented for each subsequent file. - Conversely, when the last file is unpreserved (before reboot) or finished (after reboot), the FLB's .unpreserve() or .finish() callback is invoked to clean up the global resource. The implementation includes: - A new set of ABI definitions (luo_flb_ser, luo_flb_head_ser) and a corresponding FDT node (luo-flb) to serialize the state of all active FLBs and pass them via Kexec Handover. - Core logic in luo_flb.c to manage FLB registration, reference counting, and the invocation of lifecycle callbacks. - An API (liveupdate_flb_get/_incoming/_outgoing) for other kernel subsystems to safely access the live object managed by an FLB, both before and after the live update. This framework provides the necessary infrastructure for more complex subsystems like IOMMU, VFIO, and KVM to integrate with the Live Update Orchestrator.

2026-02-08list: add primitives for private list manipulationsPasha Tatashin
Patch series "list private v2 & luo flb", v9. This series introduces two connected infrastructure improvements: a new API for handling private linked lists, and the "File-Lifecycle-Bound" (FLB) mechanism for the Live Update Orchestrator. 1. Private List Primitives (patches 1-3) Recently, Linux introduced the ability to mark structure members as __private and access them via ACCESS_PRIVATE(). This enforces better encapsulation by ensuring internal details are only accessible by the owning subsystem. However, struct list_head is frequently used as an internal linkage mechanism within these private sections. The standard macros in <linux/list.h> do not support ACCESS_PRIVATE() natively. Consequently, subsystems using private lists are forced to implement ad-hoc workarounds or local iterator macros. This series adds <linux/list_private.h>, providing a set of primitives identical to those in <linux/list.h> but designed for private list heads. It also includes a KUnit test suite to verify that the macros correctly handle pointer offsets and qualifiers. 2. This series adds FLB (patches 4-5) support to Live Update that also internally uses private lists. FLB allows global kernel state (such as IOMMU domains or HugeTLB state) to be preserved once, shared across multiple file descriptors, and restored when needed. This is necessary for subsystems where multiple preserved file descriptors depend on a single, shared underlying resource. Preserving this state for each individual file would be redundant and incorrect. FLB uses reference counting tied to the lifecycle of preserved files. The state is preserved when the first file depending on it is preserved, and restored or cleaned up only when the last file is handled. This patch (of 5): Linux recently added an ability to add private members to structs (i.e. __private) and access them via ACCESS_PRIVATE(). This ensures that those members are only accessible by the subsystem which owns the struct type, and not to the object owner. However, struct list_head often needs to be placed into the private section to be manipulated privately by the subsystem. Add macros to support private list manipulations in <linux/list_private.h>.

2026-02-07workqueue: add time-based panic for stallsBreno Leitao
Add a new module parameter 'panic_on_stall_time' that triggers a panic when a workqueue stall persists for longer than the specified duration in seconds. Unlike 'panic_on_stall' which counts accumulated stall events, this parameter triggers based on the duration of a single continuous stall. This is useful for catching truly stuck workqueues rather than accumulating transient stalls. Usage: workqueue.panic_on_stall_time=120 This would panic if any workqueue pool has been stalled for 120 seconds or more. The stall duration is measured from the workqueue last progress (poll_ts) which accounts for legitimate system stalls.

Add new compatible string 'fsl,imx952-asrc' for i.MX952 platform, below are the differences that make this ASRC not fallback compatible with other platforms. 1) There is a power domain on i.MX952 for the wakeupmix system where ASRC is in. But it is enabled by default, ASRC device don't need to enable it, so it is optional for i.MX952. 2) The clock sources of ASRC are different on i.MX952. 3) There is a limitation on i.MX952 that DMA request is not cleared at the end of conversion with dma slave mode. Which causes sample is dropped from the input fifo on the second time if DMA is triggered before the client device and DMA may copy wrong data from output fifo as the output fifo is not ready in the beginning.

2026-02-06crypto: ccp - Add sysfs attribute for boot integrityMario Limonciello
The boot integrity attribute represents that the CPU or APU is used for the hardware root of trust in the boot process. This bit only represents the CPU/APU and some vendors have other hardware root of trust implementations specific to their designs.

2026-02-06gpu: Move DRM buddy allocator one level up (part two)Joel Fernandes
Move the DRM buddy allocator one level up so that it can be used by GPU drivers (example, nova-core) that have usecases other than DRM (such as VFIO vGPU support). Modify the API, structures and Kconfigs to use "gpu_buddy" terminology. Adapt the drivers and tests to use the new API. The commit cannot be split due to bisectability, however no functional change is intended. Verified by running K-UNIT tests and build tested various configurations.

2026-02-05spi: cadence-qspi: Add Renesas RZ/N1 supportMark Brown
Merge series from "Miquel Raynal (Schneider Electric)" <miquel.raynal@bootlin.com>: This series adds support for the QSPI controller available on Renesas RZ/N1S and RZ/N1D SoC. It has been tested with a custom board (see last SPI patch for details), but has been tested by Wolfram (thank you!) on the DB board. Link: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-devicetree/20260116114852.52948-2-wsa+renesas@sang-engineering.com/ Adding support for this SoC required a few adaptations to the Cadence QSPI driver which have already been merged (except one regarding clocks handling). This series contains the remaining patches, the ones actually adding support for the RZ/N1 flavour.
2026-02-05drm/xe: Decouple GuC RC code from xe_guc_pcVinay Belgaumkar
Move enable/disable GuC RC logic into the new file. This will allow us to independently enable/disable GuC RC and not rely on SLPC related functions. GuC already provides separate H2G interfaces to setup GuC RC and SLPC.

2026-02-05spi: dt-bindings: cdns,qspi-nor: Add Renesas RZ/N1D400 to the listMiquel Raynal (Schneider Electric)
Add support for the Renesas RZ/N1D400 QSPI controller. This SoC is identified in the bindings with its other name: r9a06g032. It is part of the RZ/N1 family, which contains a "D" and a "S" variant. IPs in this SoC are typically described using 2 compatibles: the SoC specific compatible and the family compatible. The original Cadence IP compatible is dropped because it is unusable on its own. Indirect accesses are not supported by this flavour of the Cadence IP, which means several properties have no meaning in the scope of the Renesas compatible. Let's make sure they are no longer expected nor mandatory.

Document the Renesas USBHS controller found on the Renesas RZ/G3E SoC. The USBHS block on RZ/G3E is functionally identical to the one found on the RZ/G2L family, so no driver changes are needed. The existing "renesas,rzg2l-usbhs" fallback compatible will continue to be used for handling this IP.
