2026-06-08fs/proc/task_mmu: use huge_page_size() in pagemap_scan_hugetlb_entry()Kiryl Shutsemau (Meta)
The partial-page check compares against HPAGE_SIZE (PMD_SIZE), which is wrong for gigantic hugetlb hstates (e.g. 1G). The walker hands the callback a huge_page_size()-sized range, never start + HPAGE_SIZE, so the comparison always declares it partial and aborts the WP. Compare against the actual hstate's page size.

2026-06-08fs/proc/task_mmu: fix make_uffd_wp_huge_pte() prot-update raceKiryl Shutsemau (Meta)
Patch series "userfaultfd/pagemap: pre-existing fixes". These are pre-existing bug fixes that were carried at the front of the userfaultfd RWP working-set-tracking series up to v5 [1]. Per review feedback that fixes should not sit in the middle of a feature series, they are split out and sent on their own; the RWP series is reposted rebased on top of this. All six were flagged by the Sashiko AI review of the RWP series and carry Reported-by: Sashiko AI review <sashiko-bot@kernel.org>. They are independent of RWP, apply to mm-new directly, and carry Cc: stable@. 1: fs/proc/task_mmu: a missing huge_ptep_modify_prot_start() in make_uffd_wp_huge_pte() can lose hardware Dirty/Accessed updates when PAGEMAP_SCAN write-protects a hugetlb PTE. 2: fs/proc/task_mmu: pagemap_scan_hugetlb_entry() compares the range against HPAGE_SIZE rather than the hstate page size, so it never write-protects gigantic hugetlb pages. 3: fs/proc/task_mmu: PAGEMAP_SCAN with PM_SCAN_WP_MATCHING over an unpopulated hugetlb range self-deadlocks -- pagemap_scan_pte_hole() calls uffd_wp_range() while walk_hugetlb_range() holds the hugetlb vma lock for read, and hugetlb_change_protection() then takes it for write. Install the marker inline instead. 4: mm/huge_memory: change_non_present_huge_pmd() drops pmd_swp_uffd_wp on a device-private PMD permission downgrade, silently losing the uffd-wp marker. 5: userfaultfd: must_wait() applies pte_write() to a locklessly read PTE without checking pte_present(), so swap/migration entries decode random offset bits and a thread can stay parked on a stale fault. 6: userfaultfd: __VMA_UFFD_FLAGS feeds VMA_UFFD_MINOR_BIT (41) to mk_vma_flags() unconditionally, an out-of-bounds write into the single-word vma_flags_t on 32-bit. Build the mask from config-gated per-mode masks so an unavailable bit is never materialised. This patch (of 6): make_uffd_wp_huge_pte() arms the UFFD_WP bit on a present HugeTLB PTE by calling huge_ptep_modify_prot_commit() with a ptent snapshot that was fetched without the corresponding huge_ptep_modify_prot_start(). The start helper is what atomically clears the entry so the kernel-owned snapshot stays consistent until the commit; without it, the hardware may set Dirty or Accessed in the live PTE between the original read and the commit, and huge_ptep_modify_prot_commit() (whose generic implementation just calls set_huge_pte_at()) then writes the stale snapshot back over the live hardware bits, losing the update. The non-hugetlb sibling make_uffd_wp_pte() does this correctly via ptep_modify_prot_start() / ptep_modify_prot_commit(). Mirror that pattern for the present-PTE branch. The migration case stays as-is -- migration entries are non-present, so there's no hardware update to race against.

2026-06-08mm/page_alloc: fix deferred compaction accountingfujunjie
COMPACT_DEFERRED means compaction did not start because past failures caused the zone to be deferred. try_to_compact_pages() returns the maximum result seen while walking the zonelist, so a final COMPACT_DEFERRED result means no later zone reported that compaction actually ran. __alloc_pages_direct_compact() skips COMPACTSTALL and COMPACTFAIL accounting when try_to_compact_pages() returns COMPACT_SKIPPED, but not when it returns COMPACT_DEFERRED. A deferred-only direct compaction attempt can therefore look like a stall, and then a failure if the allocation still cannot be satisfied. Treat COMPACT_DEFERRED like COMPACT_SKIPPED in this accounting path. If a later zone runs compaction and returns a result above COMPACT_DEFERRED, or compact_zone_order() reports COMPACT_SUCCESS for a captured page, the final result is not COMPACT_DEFERRED and the existing accounting still runs.

2026-06-08mm: use mapping_max_folio_order() for force_thp_readahead orderUsama Arif
The force_thp_readahead path in do_sync_mmap_readahead() is gated on HPAGE_PMD_ORDER <= MAX_PAGECACHE_ORDER and always requests HPAGE_PMD_ORDER / HPAGE_PMD_NR. On configurations where HPAGE_PMD_ORDER exceeds MAX_PAGECACHE_ORDER, notably arm64 with a 64K base page size, VM_HUGEPAGE mappings cannot use this path and fall back to the non-forced mmap readahead path even when the mapping supports useful large folios. Enable forced readahead for mappings that support large folios and request the max folio order supported by the mapping, capped at 2M. 2MB is chosen as the cap because it matches the PMD size on x86_64 and on arm64 with 4K base pages, so the size/memory-pressure tradeoff for folios of that size is already well understood. On arm64 with 16K and 64K base page sizes, 2MB is also the contiguous-PTE (contpte) block size, so the resulting folios coalesce into a single TLB entry and reduce TLB pressure on the readahead path. This will result in 32M folios not being faulted in with 16K base page size for arm64, but with contpte, the performance difference should be negligible. The final allocation order may still be clamped by page_cache_ra_order() to the mapping and request geometry, but this gives VM_HUGEPAGE mappings on such configurations a large-folio readahead request instead of dropping back to base-page readahead.

2026-06-08mm: bypass mmap_miss heuristic for VM_EXEC readaheadUsama Arif
Patch series "mm: improve large folio readahead for exec memory", v7. Two checks in do_sync_mmap_readahead() limit large-folio readahead: 1. The mmap_miss heuristic is meant to throttle wasteful speculative readahead. It is currently also applied to the VM_EXEC readahead path, which is targeted rather than speculative. Once mmap_miss exceeds MMAP_LOTSAMISS, exec readahead - including the large-folio order requested by exec_folio_order() - is disabled. On configurations where the mmap_miss decrement paths are not active (see patch 1) the counter only grows, so exec readahead is permanently disabled after the first 100 faults. 2. The force_thp_readahead path is gated only on HPAGE_PMD_ORDER <= MAX_PAGECACHE_ORDER and always drives the readahead at HPAGE_PMD_ORDER. Configurations where HPAGE_PMD_ORDER exceeds MAX_PAGECACHE_ORDER never reach this path, even when the mapping itself supports usefully large folios well below the cap. Both issues are most visible on arm64 with a 64K base page size, where HPAGE_PMD_ORDER is 13 (512MB) -- above MAX_PAGECACHE_ORDER (11) -- and where fault_around_pages collapses to 1 disabling should_fault_around() (one of the two mmap_miss decrement sites). However the fixes are architecture-agnostic: patch 1 reflects the nature of VM_EXEC readahead regardless of base page size, and patch 2 generalises the gate so any mapping advertising a usefully large maximum folio order can benefit. I created a benchmark that mmaps a large executable file madvises it as huge and calls RET-stub functions at PAGE_SIZE offsets across it. "Cold" measures fault + readahead cost. "Random" first faults in all pages with a sequential sweep (not measured), then measures time for calling random offsets, isolating iTLB miss cost for scattered execution. The benchmark results on Neoverse V2 (Grace), arm64 with 64K base pages, 512MB executable file on ext4, averaged over 3 runs: Phase | Baseline | Patched | Improvement -----------|--------------|--------------|------------------ Cold fault | 83.4 ms | 41.3 ms | 50% faster Random | 76.0 ms | 58.3 ms | 23% faster This patch (of 2): The mmap_miss heuristic is intended to stop speculative mmap readahead when a file looks like a random-access workload. That does not fit the VM_EXEC path very well. VM_EXEC readahead is already constrained differently from ordinary mmap read-around: it is bounded by the VMA, uses exec_folio_order() to choose an order useful for executable mappings, and sets async_size to 0 so it does not create follow-on readahead. When VM_HUGEPAGE is also present, the larger readahead is an explicit userspace opt-in. The mmap_miss counter is decremented from cache-hit paths in do_async_mmap_readahead() and filemap_map_pages(). Those paths are not always enough to balance the synchronous miss increments for executable mappings. In particular, when fault-around is effectively disabled, such as configurations where fault_around_pages is 1, filemap_map_pages() is not reached from the fault path. The counter can then become a stale throttle for VM_EXEC mappings and suppress the readahead behavior that the executable-specific path is trying to provide. Skip both mmap_miss increments and decrements for VM_EXEC mappings, matching the existing VM_SEQ_READ treatment and keeping the counter accounting symmetric.

2026-06-08mm/compaction: respect cpusets when checking retry suitabilityfujunjie
should_compact_retry() handles COMPACT_SKIPPED by asking compaction_zonelist_suitable() whether reclaim can make a later compaction attempt worthwhile. That answer is used for the current allocation, so it should follow the same zone eligibility rules as the allocation itself. When cpusets are enabled, allocator slowpath decisions are marked with ALLOC_CPUSET. The allocation path, direct compaction and reclaim retry all skip zones rejected by __cpuset_zone_allowed(). compaction_zonelist_suitable() does not apply that filter. It only walks ac->zonelist/ac->nodemask, so it can return true because a zone that is not usable for the current allocation would pass __compaction_suitable(). That does not let the allocation use the disallowed zone. Later allocation and direct compaction paths still apply cpuset filtering. However, it can make should_compact_retry() retry based on memory that this allocation cannot use. Pass gfp_mask down and apply the same ALLOC_CPUSET check in compaction_zonelist_suitable(). This keeps the retry decision aligned with the zones that the allocation is allowed to use. A temporary debugfs probe was also used to call the old and new compaction_zonelist_suitable() predicates in the same two-node NUMA guest. The task was restricted to mems=0 while ac->nodemask covered nodes 0-1. After putting pressure on node0, node0 failed __compaction_suitable() for order-10 and node1 passed it, but node1 was rejected by __cpuset_zone_allowed(). In that state the old predicate returned true and the patched predicate returned false.

2026-06-08mm: switch deferred split shrinker to list_lruJohannes Weiner
The deferred split queue handles cgroups in a suboptimal fashion. The queue is per-NUMA node or per-cgroup, not the intersection. That means on a cgrouped system, a node-restricted allocation entering reclaim can end up splitting large pages on other nodes: alloc/unmap deferred_split_folio() list_add_tail(memcg->split_queue) set_shrinker_bit(memcg, node, deferred_shrinker_id) for_each_zone_zonelist_nodemask(restricted_nodes) mem_cgroup_iter() shrink_slab(node, memcg) shrink_slab_memcg(node, memcg) if test_shrinker_bit(memcg, node, deferred_shrinker_id) deferred_split_scan() walks memcg->split_queue The shrinker bit adds an imperfect guard rail. As soon as the cgroup has a single large page on the node of interest, all large pages owned by that memcg, including those on other nodes, will be split. list_lru properly sets up per-node, per-cgroup lists. As a bonus, it streamlines a lot of the list operations and reclaim walks. It's used widely by other major shrinkers already. Convert the deferred split queue as well. The list_lru per-memcg heads are instantiated on demand when the first object of interest is allocated for a cgroup, by calling folio_memcg_alloc_deferred(). Add calls to where splittable pages are created: anon faults, swapin faults, khugepaged collapse. These calls create all possible node heads for the cgroup at once, so the migration code (between nodes) doesn't need any special care.

2026-06-08mm: memory: flatten alloc_anon_folio() retry loopJohannes Weiner

2026-06-08mm: list_lru: introduce folio_memcg_list_lru_alloc()Johannes Weiner
memcg_list_lru_alloc() is called every time an object that may end up on the list_lru is created. It needs to quickly check if the list_lru heads for the memcg already exist, and allocate them when they don't. Doing this with folio objects is tricky: folio_memcg() is not stable and requires either RCU protection or pinning the cgroup. But it's desirable to make the existence check lightweight under RCU, and only pin the memcg when we need to allocate list_lru heads and may block. In preparation for switching the THP shrinker to list_lru, add a helper function for allocating list_lru heads coming from a folio.

2026-06-08mm: list_lru: introduce caller locking for additions and deletionsJohannes Weiner
Locking is currently internal to the list_lru API. However, a caller might want to keep auxiliary state synchronized with the LRU state. For example, the THP shrinker uses the lock of its custom LRU to keep PG_partially_mapped and vmstats consistent. To allow the THP shrinker to switch to list_lru, provide normal and irqsafe locking primitives as well as caller-locked variants of the addition and deletion functions.

2026-06-08mm: list_lru: fix set_shrinker_bit() call during race with cgroup deletionJohannes Weiner
Patch series "mm: switch THP shrinker to list_lru", v5. The open-coded deferred split queue has issues. It's not NUMA-aware (when cgroup is enabled), and it's more complicated in the callsites interacting with it. Switching to list_lru fixes the NUMA problem and streamlines things. It also simplifies planned shrinker work. Patch 1 fixes a pre-existing list_lru bug where the shrinker bit is set on the caller's memcg rather than the ancestor whose sublist the item actually lands on after a walk-up. Standalone, backportable; the rest of the series depends on it. Patches 2-5 are cleanups and small refactors in list_lru code. They're basically independent, but make the THP shrinker conversion easier. Patch 6 extends the list_lru API to allow the caller to control the locking scope. The THP shrinker has private state it needs to keep synchronized with the LRU state. Patch 7 extends the list_lru API with a convenience helper to do list_lru head allocation (memcg_list_lru_alloc) when coming from a folio. Anon THPs are instantiated in several places, and with the folio reparenting patches pending, folio_memcg() access is now a more delicate dance. This avoids having to replicate that dance everywhere. Patch 8 flattens the alloc_anon_folio() retry loop so the next patch's list_lru hook lands as a clean addition rather than nested deep inside an if (folio) block. Patch 9 finally switches the deferred_split_queue to list_lru. This patch (of 9): When list_lru_add() races with cgroup deletion, the shrinker bit is set on the wrong group and lost. This can cause a shrinker run to miss the cgroup that actually has the object. When the passed in memcg is dead, the function finds the first non-dead parent from the passed in memcg and adds the object there; but the shrinker bit is set on the memcg that was passed in. This bug is as old as the shrinker bitmap itself. Fix it by returning the "effective" memcg from the locking function, and have the caller use that.

2026-06-08net: ibm: emac: Fix use-after-free during device removalRosen Penev
The driver was using devm_register_netdev() which causes unregister_netdev() to be deferred until the devres cleanup phase, which runs after emac_remove() returns. This creates a use-after-free window where: 1. emac_remove() is called, which tears down hardware (cancels work, detaches modules, unregisters from MAL) 2. emac_remove() returns 3. devres cleanup runs and finally calls unregister_netdev() During step 3, the network stack might still process packets, triggering emac_irq(), emac_poll(), or other handlers that access now-freed hardware resources (dev->emacp, dev->mal, etc.). Fix this by replacing devm_register_netdev() with manual register_netdev() and calling unregister_netdev() at the beginning of emac_remove(), before any hardware teardown. This ensures the network device is fully stopped and unregistered before hardware resources are released. The change is safe because: - dev->ndev is assigned very early in probe (before any error paths that could bypass emac_remove) - platform_set_drvdata() is only called after successful registration, so emac_remove() only runs for fully registered devices - unregister_netdev() is idempotent and safe to call on any registered device Fixes: a4dd8535a527 ("net: ibm: emac: use devm for register_netdev") Signed-off-by: Rosen Penev <rosenp@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Jacob Keller <jacob.e.keller@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>

The skb_pull() then decrements skb->len by skb_gro_offset but skb->data_len stays unchanged, hitting BUG_ON(skb->len < skb->data_len) in __skb_pull(). The UDP fraglist GRO path already contains this guard at udp_offload.c:749. Adding it to skb_gro_receive_list() itself provides centralized protection for all callers (TCP, UDP, and any future protocols), and ensures the precondition of skb_pull() is satisfied before it is called. On pskb_may_pull() failure, set NAPI_GRO_CB(skb)->flush = 1 so the skb is not held as a new GRO head and is instead delivered through the normal receive path, matching the UDP handling.

2026-06-08pds_core: quiesce DMA before freeing resourcesNikhil P. Rao
pdsc_teardown() frees DMA buffers but does not disable bus mastering, leaving the device able to perform DMA after the buffers are freed. This can lead to use-after-free if the device writes to freed memory. Add pci_clear_master() to pdsc_teardown() to disable bus mastering before freeing resources, ensuring all DMA is quiesced. Add pci_set_master() to pdsc_setup() to re-enable bus mastering, which is needed for the firmware recovery path since pdsc_teardown() now disables it. Signed-off-by: Nikhil P.

2026-06-08iommufd: Take dma_resv lock before dma_buf_unpin() in release pathAnkit Soni
dma_buf_unpin() requires the caller to hold the exporter's dma_resv lock: void dma_buf_unpin(struct dma_buf_attachment *attach) { ... dma_resv_assert_held(dmabuf->resv); ... } iopt_release_pages() calls dma_buf_unpin() without taking that lock, so every iommufd_ioas_destroy()/iommufd_ioas_unmap() that releases the last reference on a DMABUF-backed iopt_pages triggers a WARN.

Kuniyuki Iwashima says: ==================== ip6mr: No RTNL for RTNL_FAMILY_IP6MR rtnetlink. This series is the IPv6 version of https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20260228221800.1082070-1-kuniyu@google.com/ and removes RTNL from ip6mr rtnetlink handlers. After this series, there are a few RTNL left in net/ipv6/ip6mr.c and such users will be converted to per-netns RTNL in another series. Patch 1 extends the ipmr selftest to exercise most of the RTNL paths in net/ipv6/ipmr.c Patch 2 - 6 converts RTM_GETROUTE handlers to RCU. Patch 7 removes struct fib_dump_filter.rtnl_held. Patch 8 use RCU for mr_table for CONFIG_IPV6_MROUTE_MULTIPLE_TABLES=n for ->exit_rtnl(). Patch 9 move fib_rules_unregister() to ->exit() Patch 10 - 12 converts ->exit_batch() to ->exit_rtnl() to save one RTNL in cleanup_net(). Patch 13 removes unnecessary RTNL during setup_net() failure.

2026-06-08ip6mr: Replace RTNL with a dedicated mutex for MFC.Kuniyuki Iwashima
ip6mr does not have rtnetlink interface for MFC unlike ipmr, which uses dev_get_by_index_rcu() to set struct mfcctl.mfcc_parent. ip6mr_mfc_add() and ip6mr_mfc_delete() are called under RTNL from ip6_mroute_setsockopt() only. There are no RTNL dependant, but ip6_mroute_setsockopt() reuses RTNL just for mrt->mfc_hash and mrt->mfc_cache_list. Let's replace RTNL with a new per-netns mutex. Later, ip6mr_notifier_ops and ipmr_seq will be moved under CONFIG_IPV6_MROUTE.

2026-06-08ip6mr: Remove RTNL in ip6mr_rules_init() and ip6mr_net_init().Kuniyuki Iwashima
When ip6mr_free_table() is called from ip6mr_rules_init() or ip6mr_net_init(), the netns is not yet published. Thus, no device should have been registered, and mroute_clean_tables() will not call mif6_delete(), so unregister_netdevice_many() is unnecessary. unregister_netdevice_many() does nothing if the list is empty, but it requires RTNL due to the unconditional ASSERT_RTNL() at the entry of unregister_netdevice_many_notify(). Let's remove unnecessary RTNL and ASSERT_RTNL() and instead add WARN_ON_ONCE() in ip6mr_free_table(). Note that we use a local list for the new WARN_ON_ONCE() because dev_kill_list passed from ip6mr_rules_exit_rtnl() may have some devices when other ops->init() fails after ipmr durnig setup_net().

2026-06-08ip6mr: Convert ip6mr_net_exit_batch() to ->exit_rtnl().Kuniyuki Iwashima
ip6mr_net_ops uses ->exit_batch() to acquire RTNL only once for dying network namespaces. ip6mr does not depend on the ordering of ->exit_rtnl() and ->exit_batch() of other pernet_operations (unlike fib_net_ops). Once ip6mr_free_table() is called and all devices are queued for destruction in ->exit_rtnl(), later during NETDEV_UNREGISTER, ip6mr_device_event() will not see anything in vif table and just do nothing. Let's convert ip6mr_net_exit_batch() to ->exit_rtnl(). We will remove RTNL and unregister_netdevice_many() in ip6mr_rules_init().

2026-06-08ip6mr: Free mr_table after RCU grace period.Kuniyuki Iwashima
Since default_device_exit_batch() is called after ->exit_rtnl(), idev->mc_ifc_work could finally call mroute6_is_socket() under RCU while ->exit_rtnl() is running. [0] With CONFIG_IPV6_MROUTE_MULTIPLE_TABLES=n, ip6mr_fib_lookup() does not check if net->ipv6.mrt6 is NULL. If ip6mr_net_exit_batch() set net->ipv6.mrt6 to NULL and freed it, the mrt->mroute_sk access could result in null-ptr-deref or use-after-free. Let's prepare for that situation by applying RCU rule to ip6mr table similarly. !check_net(net) is added in ip6mr_cache_unresolved() and mroute_clean_tables() to synchronise the two by mfc_unres_lock so that ip6mr_cache_unresolved() will not queue skb after mroute_clean_tables() purged &mrt->mfc_unres_queue. rcu_read_lock() in reg_vif_xmit() is moved up to cover ip6mr_fib_lookup() as with ipmr.

Commit 22e36ea9f5d7 ("inet: allow ip_valid_fib_dump_req() to be called with RTNL or RCU") introduced the rtnl_held field in struct fib_dump_filter to switch __dev_get_by_index() and dev_get_by_index_rcu() depending on the caller's context. This field served as an interim measure while we were incrementally converting all callers of ip_valid_fib_dump_req() to RCU. Now that all users (IPv4, IPv6, ipmr, ip6mr, and MPLS) have been converted to RCU, the field is no longer necessary. Let's remove it.

ip6mr_rtm_dumproute() calls mr_table_dump() or mr_rtm_dumproute(), and mr_rtm_dumproute() finally calls mr_table_dump(). mr_table_dump() calls the passed function, _ip6mr_fill_mroute(). _ip6mr_fill_mroute() is a wrapper for ip6mr_fill_mroute() to cast struct mr_mfc * to struct mfc6_cache *. ip6mr_fill_mroute() can already be called safely under RCU.

ip6mr_rtm_getroute() calls __ip6mr_get_table(), ip6mr_cache_find(), and ip6mr_fill_mroute(). Once created, struct mr_table is not freed until netns dismantle, so it's safe under RCU. ip6mr_cache_find() iterates mrt->mfc_hash with rhl_for_each_entry_rcu(). struct mr_mfc is freed with call_rcu(), so this is also safe under RCU. ip6mr_fill_mroute() calls mr_fill_mroute(), which properly uses RCU helpers. Let's call them under RCU and register ip6mr_rtm_getroute() with RTNL_FLAG_DOIT_UNLOCKED.
