Drive a connection into urgent mode and force a multi-segment retransmit,
checking that each retransmitted segment keeps its own urg_ptr.
The test asserts the fixed behaviour: the hole is retransmitted as two
independent skbs, each with its own urg_ptr (5001 and 4001) and no PSH.
An unpatched kernel instead sends one super-skb whose GSO split copies
urg_ptr onto the second segment and also sets PSH there, so on an unpatched
kernel the mismatch shows up on the PSH bit (actual P.U ... urg 5001) before
the urg_ptr:
tcp_urg_ptr_retransmit.pkt:63: live packet field tcp_psh:
expected: 0 (0x0) vs actual: 1 (0x1)
script packet: .U 1001:2001(1000) ack 1
actual packet: P.U 1001:2001(1000) ack 1 win 1050
After the fix the retransmit carries a per-segment urg_ptr and the test
passes.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm
Pull more MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- "mm/rmap: index MAP_PRIVATE file-backed folios by anonymous pgoff"
(Lorenzo Stoakes)
Index MAP_PRIVATE file-backed folios by their anonymous page offset
to resolve confusion around reverse mapping for zeroed and CoW'd
file-backed memory.
Use this new VMA anonymous page offset tracking to eliminate index
conflicts and lay the foundation for scalable CoW performance
improvements.
- "promote mapped executable folios after first usage for MGLRU"
(Baolin Wang)
Make MGLRU's protection of mapped executable file folios more
reliable. Follow the classical LRU's logic, promoting mapped
executable file folios after their first usage to give executable
code a better chance to stay in memory and improve workload
performance.
- "mm: vmscan: fix node reclaim ignoring swappiness parameter" (Ridong
Chen)
Fix per-node proactive reclaim interface's ignoring the swappiness
parameter when CONFIG_MEMCG is disabled by consolidating
sc_swappiness() into a single function that checks
proactive_swappiness regardless of kernel configuration.
- "mm/vmscan: reduce lru_lock contention via vmstat-derived
scan-balance cost" (Usama Arif)
Reduce lru_lock contention in the reclaim path by deriving
scan-balance costs from vmstat counters rather than lock-acquired
producer updates.
Read and decay these cost signals on the reclaim side under a
dedicated per-lruvec lock, reducing total LRU lock wait time by over
60% without impacting scan throughput.
- "zram: fix zram issues reported by sashiko" (Sergey Senozhatsky)
Fix two low-risk zram bugs which Sashiko spotted in drive-by review.
- "Honor XA_FLAGS_ACCOUNT in xas_split_alloc() and charge to folio's
memcg" (Zi Yan)
Fix xas_split_alloc() by enabling target folio memcg charging during
splits and adding the missing __GFP_ACCOUNT flag for proper XArray
node memory accounting.
- "selftests/mm: use pattern matching in .gitignore" (Pratyush Mallick)
Replace hardcoded binary names in selftests/mm/.gitignore with a
generic pattern-matching rule to automatically ignore generated test
files and avoid manual updates when adding new tests.
- "mm/page_ext: remove pgdat_page_ext_init()" (Sang-Heon Jeon)
Make the incompatibility between FLATMEM and NUMA explicit in
mm/Kconfig and remove the unused pgdat_page_ext_init() function.
- "zram: fix zstd error paths and add parameter validation" (Haoqin
Huang)
Clean up zram compression backends by removing redundant error
cleanup, adding parameter and dictionary validation, auto-prefixing
algorithm error logs, and resetting parameters prior to
reinitialization.
- "zram: fix stale scan bounds after reinitialization" (Longlong Xia)
Prevent out-of-bounds slot accesses during concurrent zram resets by
moving table scan bound calculations under dev_lock in
writeback_store() and read_block_state().
- "add anon mTHP collapse test cases" (Baolin Wang)
Extend selftests helper functions to support arbitrary page orders
and add new test cases and options for mTHP collapse in khugepaged.
- "selftests/mm: Handle unsupported and transient test conditions"
(Muhammad Usama Anjum)
Update MM selftests to report a SKIP status instead of a failure when
required kernel or filesystem features are unsupported, while adding
retry logic for transient page migration errors.
- "mm/zswap: Fixes and improves the zswap shrink" (Hao Jia)
Fix the missing zswap global shrinker when CONFIG_MEMCG is disabled
and extend shrink_memcg() to support batch writeback for improved
writeback efficiency.
- "alloc_tag: introduce IOCTL-based filtering for MAP" (Suren
Baghdasaryan)
Introduce an IOCTL-based binary interface for memory allocation
profiling that enables kernel-side filtering before per-CPU counter
aggregation.
This eliminates the text-parsing overhead of /proc/allocinfo and
provides up to a 20x speedup by transferring only filtered allocation
data to userspace.
- "better block swap batching and a different take on swap_ops v5"
(Christoph Hellwig)
Refactor block swap I/O to use swap_iocb for batching instead of
single-bio requests and rebase the swap_ops interface, achieving
faster swap throughput during kernel builds.
- "mm: kmemleak: reduce transient false positives by confirming leaks"
(Catalin Marinas)
Reduce false-positive kmemleak reports by combining two kmemleak
enhancements that add a second confirmation scan and a configurable
minimum unreferenced scan count module parameter.
- "mm: kmemleak: default min_unref_scans to 2 for verbose kernels"
(Breno Leitao)
Auto-scanning kernels can generate false-positive memory leak reports
on single scans, so this patch defaults min_unref_scans to 2 when
CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK_VERBOSE is enabled to require a second
confirming scan.
- "swap_ops updates" (Christoph Hellwig)
Batching I/O for synchronous swap devices causes performance
regressions and filesystem-based swap suffers from double-indirection
overhead. This series resolves both issues by reintroducing per-folio
writes for synchronous swap and allowing filesystems to directly
export their own swap_ops.
- "mm/khugepaged: several cleanups" (Nico Pache)
khugepaged accumulated redundant state-checking patterns and outdated
comments following mTHP integration. Introduce dedicated helpers for
PTE validation and event counting while refreshing the internal
documentation.
- "maple_tree: lock checking and clean ups" (Liam Howlett)
Syzbot reports incorrectly blame memory management exit paths for
locking bugs, maple tree erase operations risk allocation failures
without gfp flags and internal documentation lacks clarity.
Improve lock error detection, update docs, fix race and allocation
edge cases and optimize erase allocations using a fallback to
GFP_KERNEL | GFP_NOFAIL.

The combination of checksum offload disabled (that causes software GSO)
and a debug kernel is inherently slow. Depending on the CPU power and
load, RTT may increase, limiting sk_pacing_rate, so tcp_tso_autosize
caps SKBs at around 40 segments, and zero BIG TCP packets are produced.
Increase sysctl net.ipv4.tcp_min_tso_segs and set a bigger initial value
of CWND in these configurations to force BIG TCP.

The MTE prctl test emits one result from check_basic_read() followed by
one result for each of the seven entries in mte_modes[]. However, the TAP

The MTE KSM test requires write access to KSM sysfs but does not check
that it is running as root. It also unconditionally saves, enables and
restores the merge_across_nodes attribute. The kernel only creates this
attribute when CONFIG_NUMA=y, so a non-NUMA kernel prints the following
message three times even though every KSM subtest passes:
# ERR: missing /sys/kernel/mm/ksm/merge_across_nodes
Skip the test when it is not running as root. Check that the optional
attribute is readable and writable, treating ENOENT as its expected
absence on non-NUMA kernels and skipping the test for other access
failures. Only save, enable and restore the attribute when it is
available.
Check MTE availability before the privilege and sysfs checks so systems
without MTE retain the existing feature-unavailable skip result.
This preserves the existing behavior on NUMA kernels without requiring
NUMA or reducing KSM coverage on single-node systems.

Most MTE tests set a TAP plan and emit results without first printing
the TAP version header. Direct execution therefore starts with a plan
such as "1..20" instead of "TAP version 13".
The problem is particularly visible in the GCR_EL1 context-switch test.
It prints its plan before forking 1,024 child processes. When stdout is
fully buffered, the plan remains in the stdio buffer. Each child inherits
the pending "1..1" line and flushes its copy from exit(), producing
repeated plan lines.
ksft_print_header() prints the TAP header and enables line buffering.
Call it in every MTE test that is missing it. In the GCR_EL1 test, call
it before the plan so the plan is flushed before the children are
forked. In the remaining tests, call it before setup and prerequisite
checks so early failures and whole-test skips also retain the header.

Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"ARM64:
- Add support for 'slot' based PMU events, paired with new UAPI that
compels the user to select a specific PMU implementation
- Lazy save/restore of vCPU state for pKVM, along with various fixes
and cleanups to the management of vCPU state between the untrusted
host and pKVM hypervisor
- Disable traps of EL1 registers for nested hypervisors when
FEAT_NV2p1 is present, guaranteeing that EL2-specific register bits
are stateful in the EL1 counterpart
- Leverage FEAT_NV3 to avoid unnecessary ERET/TLBI traps when the
scope of those instructions remains 'in host' (i.e. L1
kernel/userspace)
- Pile of fixes for the management of the VNCR pseudo-TLB, such as
under-invalidations and races with concurrent TLBIs on other vCPUs
- Consolidate the non-protected and pKVM view of ICH_VTR_EL2 to a
runtime-patched constant, allowing the same data to be shared with
pKVM prior to dropping host privileges
- Considerable pile of LLM-assisted fixes around the shop but mostly
in the VGIC, our in-kernel generator of bugs (and sometimes
interrupts)
LoongArch:
- Advertise already-supported capabilities
- Some bug fixes about timer and MMIO
- Some hardening about interrupt injection
- Replace kvm_err() with kvm_pr_unimpl()
- Add FPU/LSX/LASX test cases for selftests
RISC-V:
- Svadu/Zicfiss/Zicfilp FWFT support for Guest
- Use try_cmpxchg for IMSIC MRIF RMW
- More arch-specific tracepoints in KVM RISC-V
- Eager page splitting when enabling dirty logging
- Optimize hfence request handling for SMP Guests
- Improve dirty log clearing by skipping zero bits in mask
- Guard HFENCE range loops against overflow
- CPU PM notifiers in KVM RISC-V for non-retentive idle states
- Fix kernel-mode vector context save/restore for Guest
s390:
- Fixes for vfio-ap
- Fixes for the gmap rework
- Fixes for vsie
- AI triggered fixes all over
- diag9c tracing
- code move preparation for the additional arm64 support
- enable CONTEXT_ANALYSIS
x86:
- Perform spring cleaning on x86.{c,h} and asm/kvm_host.h, by adding
regs.c (the kvm_cache_regs.h => regs.h is already applied) and
msrs.{c,h}, and moving relevant code out of x86.c
- Split kvm_mmu in three parts, respectively to describe the format
of page tables, walking the guest page tables and building the page
tables. Always use the same page table walker kvm->arch.gva_walk as
the entry point to convert a guest's virtual address, where the
previous code used two different kvm_mmu structs depending on
whether the walk included nested EPT/NPT or not. Make page fault
vmexits reuse the permission checking machinery that is used for
guest page faults. This is both a cleanup and a baby step towards
supporting XS/XU memory permissions
- Document some of the "fun" gotchas with the APIC base when creating
IRQCHIPs on x86
- Remove a defunct masterclock update from kvm_xen_shared_info_init().
It could result in incorrect kvmclock due to triggering an
unnecessary switch to/from masterclock mode
- Skip Xen runstate time updates if time has effectively gone
backwards, so that the guest doesn't report 100% steal time for
a very, very long time
- Drop KVM's runtime updates of the Xen PV timing CPUID leaf, as KVM
was updating the wrong sub-leaf, and upstream KVM will soon provide
all the information needed by userspace to populate the CPUID field
itself
- Fix a bug where KVM would walk a newly created rmap without holding
the rmap lock (or mmu_lock) during aging
- Fix a bug where aging TDP MMU SPTEs could clobber FROZEN SPTEs
- Fix a variety of #DB priority bugs
- Fix a class of races related to enabling Hyper-V emulation on a
vCPU after the vCPU is visible to the rest of KVM
- Use static calls for nested virtualization ops
- Move more KVM-internal code out of x86's kvm_host.h
- Enumerate support for a variety of Zhaoxin instructions that don't
require explicit virtualization
- Fix missing EFER validation bugs, including in the KVM_SET_SREGS*
path
- Harden kvm_vcpu_map() against double-mapping and thus leaking
references
- Misc fixes and cleanups, e.g. for largely benign syzkaller splats
x86 (Intel):
- Zero a vCPU's entry in VMX's Posted Interrupt Descriptor table used
for IPI virtualization when the vCPU is freed, to fix a
use-after-free where hardware will write to a freed vCPU's PID
- Service local TLB flushes on a failed nested VM-Enter to fix a bug
where KVM could miss a TLB on a future, successful VM-Enter with
the same L2 VPID
- Cap the maximum value shoved into the VMX Preemption Timer to
workaround an erratum that affects all existing Intel CPUs that
support CPUID 0x15
- Fix VPID virtualization bugs where KVM would fail to flush hardware
TLBs
- Harden the TDX "populate" ioctls against bad input, and to prepare
for supporting in-place private<=>shared conversion
x86 (AMD):
- Forcefully invalidate SNP VMSA pages if their backing guest_memfd
page is zapped/invalidated, e.g. due to a PUNCH_HOLE in response to
a Page-State Change request
- Remove a dying VM from the GA Log notifier list before the VM is
actually destroyed, to fix a potential use-after-free
- While FOLL_WRITE was needed in the past to trigger CoW unsharing,
nowadays FOLL_LONGTERM does that already even without FOLL_WRITE,
and in fact, get_user_pages() actually disallows FOLL_WRITE
together with FOLL_LONGTERM. So don't pass FOLL_WRITE when
registering encrypted memory regions, i.e. when pinning SEV/SEV-ES
guest memory, to fix a regression with file-backed memory
introduced by KVM's (correct) usage of long-term pins
(This was reviewed by mm maintainers; for more information, see
commit ee1a586dd1fa "KVM: SEV: Drop FOLL_WRITE for encrypted region
registration")
- Allocate full pages for SEV/SEV-ES {DE,EN}CRYPT ops on SNP-enabled
hosts to fix a data corruption issue due to the PSP driver
assigning to-be-written pages to firmware (as required by the SNP
specs)
- Unconditionally intercept ICBEP so that KVM generates the correct
guest RIP when handling an ICEBP-induced TASK_SWITCH #VMEXIT
- Harden the SNP "populate" ioctls against bad input, and to prepare
for supporting in-place private<=>shared conversion
Generic:
- Remove kvm_debugfs_dir if kvm_init() fails after creating KVM's
debugfs
- Add a per-VM bitmap to track which vCPU IDs have been "claimed" but
for which the vCPU isn't yet online, and use the bitmap to reject
duplicate IDs before calling into arch code. This allows arch code
to consume vcpu_id without having to worry about cross-vCPU
clobbering (at least s390 and x86 have had related bugs)
- Rework the so called "prepare" and "invalidate" guest_memfd hooks
to prepare for in-place private<=>shared conversion, and clean up a
few warts along the way
Selftests:
- Automatically allocate a full page for L2 guest stacks on x86
instead of requiring test-specific L1 guest code to carve out a
portion of the L1 stack for L2 usage, and to ensure the L2 stack
also adheres to the x86-64 calling convention ABI
- Add a selftest to verify {Guest,Host}-Only behavior in x86's
mediated PMU
- Clean up nested SVM's handling of GPRs on L2<=>L1 transitions,
reuse the functionality for nested VMX, and drop the ucall hack
that was fudging around the lack of GPR switching on nVMX
- Add a stress test to verify KVM doesn't clobber/drop #PF state,
e.g. CR2, across save/restore, including when L2 is active
- Add a test to verify KVM_CREATE_VM accepts exactly what is reported
by KVM_CAP_VM_TYPES
- Misc selftests fixes and cleanups
- Fix several issues with seeding the pRNG, and rework the pRNG APIs
to that the pRNG can be sanely used in host code, not just guest
code
- Add an IRQ test to validate virtual IRQ deliverty for IRQs wired up
via KVM_IRQFD + KVM_SET_GSI_ROUTING, with optional support for
triggering IRQs via writes to an assigned VFIO device
- Add syscall wrappers to assert success on a variety of pthreads and
CPU affinity APIs
- Set vCPU pthread affinity as early as possible to reduce contention
issues that were surfaced by PREEMPT_LAZY, which result in runtimes
of over a minute on large hosts, versus the expected ~5 seconds
- Rework the PMU counters test to run each testcase using a single VM
with many vCPUs for each sub-testcase, instead of using a unique VM
for each sub-testcase. This cuts the runtime by ~20x
Miscellaneous:
- MAINTAINERS updates for vfio-ap, guest_memfd, kvm-x86. Mostly
representing the status quo more accurately, but also... welcome
David Hildenbrand as guest_memfd reviewer!"

Pull char/misc/IIO/etc driver updates from Greg KH:
"Here is the big set of char, misc, iio, counter, fpga, and other small
driver subsystems for 7.3-rc1.
Overall, due to some driver removals we only added a bit more code
than removed, which was a nice change. Highlights in this merge
request are:
- Loads of IIO driver updates and additions
- binder driver updates (more on that below...)
- Removal of the SGI XP and GRU drivers as they are not used anymore
and turn out to be pretty insecure overall
- Removal of the obsolete ibmasm driver as it's not being used
anymore
- Coresight driver updates and additions
- Mei driver udpates
- Counter driver updates
- FPGA driver updates
- ICC driver updates
- lots and lots of other tiny driver updates to resolve reported
issues
All of these have been in linux-next for a while"

test_maps_tearing_from_split times out when READ_IMPLIES_EXEC is set.
This happens by default on pre-ARMv6 CPUs, which lack no-execute support.
split_vma() re-maps the first page with mod_info->prot | PROT_EXEC to make
it differ from its neighbours. With READ_IMPLIES_EXEC the original
mapping is already executable, so no split occurs and the test hangs
waiting for the modifier child.
Use PROT_NONE for the split mapping, which always differs from its
readable neighbours.

get_finfo() calls stat() to get metadata about the target directory, but
never checks the return value. On failure, stat() returns -1 and leaves
path_stat unmodified, so path_stat.st_mode may contain uninitialized stack
data.
The code then checks S_ISDIR(path_stat.st_mode) against this potentially
garbage value. This can produce a misleading "Not a directory" error when
the real problem is a nonexistent or inaccessible path, or, in the worst
case, the check could pass by chance on garbage data and let the function
continue using an invalid path_stat for the rest of its logic.
Check the return value and fail with a clear error message if stat()
fails, matching the error-handling style already used for statfs() and
read_file() later in the same function.

test_mprotect() calls ftruncate() to resize the backing file before
mmap()'ing it, but never checks the return value. If ftruncate() fails,
the file may remain shorter than the requested mapping size. The
subsequent mmap() with MAP_SHARED can still succeed in this case, but the
very next line writes directly into the mapped memory (*map = 1), which
can trigger SIGBUS if the mapping extends beyond the actual file size.
Check the return value and fail cleanly with ksft_exit_fail_msg() if
ftruncate() fails, matching the error-handling style already used for the
mmap() call immediately below it.

test_no_kmem_bypass() needs to read /sys/kernel/debug/zswap/stored_pages
via get_zswap_stored_pages() to verify that compressed pages are charged
to the memcg.
When running in an environment where debugfs is not mounted or
CONFIG_DEBUG_FS is disabled, get_zswap_stored_pages() fails, causing the
loop to terminate early and report a false negative (KSFT_FAIL).
Selftests should not fail if debugfs is unavailable, and it should print a
message when it is skipped.
While I'm here, also add a warning message if the test is being skipped
due to totalram size and make the check for totalram more readable.

Add a functional test for the min_unref_scans kmemleak module parameter.
Using samples/kmemleak's helper module it checks that min_unref_scans=1
reports an orphan on the first scan, min_unref_scans=2 reports nothing on
the first scan but does on the second, and that the parameter reads back
what was written.
It counts only the helper module's own orphans (matched by their
[kmemleak_test] backtrace, with the module kept loaded so the symbols
resolve) so unrelated leaks already present on the system do not perturb
the result. The test skips when run as non-root, without
CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK / CONFIG_SAMPLE_KMEMLEAK, on a kernel without the
parameter, or when the helper yields no detectable orphan.

Add the following 2 scenarios to the allocinfo ioctl kselftest:
1. Validate size based filtering
2. Validate lineno based filtering
The first test uses "do_init_module" as the candidate function for the
test. This is because the associated site will only allocate memory when
a kernel module is loaded. The return value of get_content_id() changes
every time modules are loaded or unloaded. Hence, as long as
get_content_id() values at the start and the end of the test are the same,
the memory allocated by the do_init_module call site should also remain
the same. Consequently, the test can assume consistency between the value
returned by the ioctl and the procfs resulting in less flakiness.

Introduce a kselftest to verify the new IOCTL-based interface for
/proc/allocinfo. The test covers:
1. Validation of the filename filter.
2. Validation of the function filter.
The first test validates the functionality of the filename filter. Using
"mm/memory.c" as the candidate filename filter, it retrieves filtered
entries from both procfs and ioctl and matches the first VEC_MAX_ENTRIES
entries.
The second test validates the functionality of the function filter. It
uses "dup_mm" as the candidate function as we do not expect this function
name to change frequently and hence won't be needing to modify this test
often.
Note that both the tests match line no, function name and file name
fields. Bytes allocated and calls are not matched as those values may
change in the time when the data is being read from procfs and ioctl and
hence can lead to false negatives.

move_pages() is best effort and can temporarily fail when concurrent
faults race with page unmapping. A busy shared-anon workload can exhaust
the current 100 retries long before the intended 20-second runtime and
produce a false failure.
Use the full runtime as the retry window. Since the initial page location
is unknown, require it to reach both alternating NUMA targets to confirm
that cross-node migration made progress despite transient contention.

The hard dirty_pagecache variant uses MADV_HWPOISON to exercise recovery
of a dirty file-backed page. The recovery path records -EIO in the
address_space mapping, which NFS later reports when the test closes the
file. This makes the test fail after the hwpoison checks have completed.
Skip this variant when the test file is on NFS. Keep the hard clean-page
and both soft-offline variants enabled because they use folio removal,
invalidation, or migration rather than recording a delayed writeback
error.
The unsupported-filesystem path in clean_pagecache() also returns without
closing the opened test file. Close the descriptor before skipping there
and in dirty_pagecache().

The hole_punch case verifies that guard regions survive MADV_REMOVE and
that the backing range is punched out. MADV_REMOVE delegates the hole
punch to the backing filesystem, which may reject the operation with
EOPNOTSUPP.
That result means the test cannot establish the state whose guard
semantics it intends to validate. Treating the missing filesystem
capability as a guard-region failure creates a false regression.
Unmap the range and skip only when MADV_REMOVE fails with EOPNOTSUPP.
Preserve the assertion for all other errors so failures on supported
configurations remain visible.

Patch series "selftests/mm: Handle unsupported and transient test
conditions", v3.
Several MM selftests report failures when the test environment lacks
an underlying prerequisite, such as fallocate() support, MADV_REMOVE,
local page-cache semantics, or swap.
This series converts those unsupported cases to SKIP while preserving
failures for unexpected errors. It also allows migration tests to retry
transient move_pages() failures.
This patch (of 4):
The tmpfile-backed COW cases allocate a one-page file with fallocate()
before exercising private and shared mappings. When the filesystem
backing tmpfile() does not implement fallocate(), setup fails with
EOPNOTSUPP and no COW behavior is exercised.
This occurs when the temporary directory resides on a filesystem with
limited allocation support, such as NFSv3. Reporting a failure adds noise
because the test prerequisite is absent rather than the COW implementation
being broken.
Report EOPNOTSUPP as a skip. Continue treating every other fallocate()
error as a failure so unexpected setup regressions remain visible.

Added a new command 'mthp_khugepaged' for mTHP collapse, along with the
'-c' parameter to specify the collapse order. Additionally, added mTHP
collapse test cases for 'collapse_full', 'collapse_empty', and
'collapse_single_mthp' for anonymous folios. All khugepaged test cases
passed.

The current .gitignore hardcodes each generated test binary by name,
requiring updates every time a new test is added.
Switch to the pattern-matching approach similar to KVM:selftests. Ignore
everything by default and then allow source extensions (.c, .h, .sh) and
tracked non-source files.
Note that local_config.h was renamed to local_config.h_gen in a previous
patch so that un-ignoring *.h files does not cause generated build
artifacts to become untracked.

read_memory_info() invokes two shell pipelines to obtain MemFree and
Hugepagesize from /proc/meminfo. It does not check whether popen()
returns NULL before passing the result to fgets(), and it does not call
pclose() when fgets() fails.
Open /proc/meminfo directly and obtain both values in a single pass. This
removes the unchecked NULL path, closes the file on all paths, and avoids
dependencies on external commands.
The compaction test continues to pass after this change.

Patch series "selftests/mm: use pattern matching in .gitignore", v4.
The current selftests/mm/.gitignore hardcodes each generated test binary
by name, which requires manual updates every time a new test is added.
This series switches to a pattern-matching approach (similar to KVM
selftests), ignoring everything by default and allowing specific source
extensions. To accommodate this without tracking generated headers,
local_config.h is renamed to local_config.h_gen.
This patch (of 2):
Because local_config.h is a generated build artifact, un-ignoring all .h
files in .gitignore causes it to incorrectly show up as an untracked file
in git status.
Rename it to local_config.h_gen so it no longer matches the !*.h inclusion
rule, preparing for a subsequent patch that switches .gitignore to a
pattern-matching approach.
Update Makefile, check_config.sh, and affected test sources (cow.c,
gup_longterm.c) accordingly.

While maintaining anonymous page offsets for VMAs has no impact for most
merge cases, it does impact MAP_PRIVATE-mapped file-backed mappings which
happen to have matching page offset but not matching anonymous page
offset.
Assert this behaviour by attempting to map an unfaulted MAP_PRIVATE-memfd
region with a faulted one with compatible file page offsets but
incompatible anonymous page offsets.

main() never checks fork() for failure. When fork() returns -1
(EAGAIN/ENOMEM/RLIMIT_NPROC), the !child_pid test is false and the
process falls into server()'s infinite accept() loop with no client ever
connecting, producing empty output. The wrapper script treats an
empty log as a passing test, producing a false positive.
Check fork() for failure with error(), as is done for every other
syscall in this file.

sig_handler() passes its arguments to kill() in the wrong order: it sends
signal number child_pid to PID SIGTERM (15) instead of sending SIGTERM
to the client process. The call therefore always fails and the signal
is never forwarded: when only the server process receives SIGTERM, the
client keeps running its infinite connect loop as an orphan process.
Swap the arguments so that the server forwards SIGTERM to the client.
Guard the call with child_pid > 0: the client inherits the handler and
sees child_pid == 0, and a plain argument swap would make it call
kill(0, SIGTERM), signaling the whole process group instead of exiting
quietly.
Now that the server actually terminates the client before the wrapper
script's cleanup runs, kill() may fail with ESRCH for the already-exited
client. The script uses set -e, so make the kill tolerant to avoid
aborting the EXIT trap and leaking temporary files.

KVM/arm64 changes for 7.3
- Add support for 'slot' based PMU events, paired with new UAPI that
compels the user to select a specific PMU implementation
- Lazy save/restore of vCPU state for pKVM, along with various fixes
and cleanups to the management of vCPU state between the untrusted
host and pKVM hypervisor
- Disable traps of EL1 registers for nested hypervisors when FEAT_NV2p1
is present, guaranteeing that EL2-specific register bits are stateful
in the EL1 counterpart
- Leverage FEAT_NV3 to avoid unnecessary ERET/TLBI traps when the scope
of those instructions remains 'in host' (i.e. L1 kernel/userspace)
- Pile of fixes for the management of the VNCR pseudo-TLB, such as
under-invalidations and races with concurrent TLBIs on other vCPUs
- Consolidate the non-protected and pKVM view of ICH_VTR_EL2 to a
runtime-patched constant, allowing the same data to be shared with
pKVM prior to dropping host privileges
- Considerable pile of LLM-assisted fixes around the shop but mostly in
the VGIC, our in-kernel generator of bugs (and sometimes interrupts)

Add a regression test for the bug where extending a file left the tail of
the old partial EOF page exposing stale mmap-dirtied data instead of zeros.
The test is a self-contained raw /dev/fuse server (no libfuse dependency)
that runs without writeback_cache and returns FOPEN_KEEP_CACHE, the
configuration in which the bug is visible. Its backing data is always zero
in the hole, so any non-zero byte a read sees is stale page-cache data.
All offsets are relative to the runtime page size. Four cases:
- write_extend: pollute the post-EOF tail, extend past it by writing into
a later page, and verify the tail reads back as zero;
- ftruncate_extend: same, but extend via ftruncate();
- fallocate_extend: same, but extend via fallocate() at the old EOF;
- extend_into_eof_page_preserves_data: an extending write landing inside
the old EOF page must not be clobbered by the zeroing.
Each case fails without the fix and passes with it.

- "mm/memory-failure: add panic option for unrecoverable pages" (Breno
Leitao)
Introduce an opt-in vm.panic_on_unrecoverable_memory_failure sysctl
that immediately panics the kernel on unrecoverable memory errors in
kernel-owned pages to preserve error context and prevent delayed,
silent data corruption
- "mm/damon: refactor damon_{start,stop,commit}() for simple error
handling" (SJ Park)
Refactor the DAMON core API functions to guarantee that all contexts
are fully stopped when damon_start(), damon_stop(), or damon_commit()
fail, eliminating the need for complex and error-prone caller-side
cleanup code
- "Keep tail page private zero at free and folio split" (Zi Yan)
Add checks to ensure tail_page->private is zero when freeing compound
or high-order pages and when promoting tail pages during large folio
splits. By validating these fields at free and split time, it allows
the removal of redundant private field clearing inside
prep_compound_tail()
- "mm: drop redundant lru_add_drain in anon folio reuse paths" (Barry
Song)
Eliminate redundant lru_add_drain() calls in
wp_can_reuse_anon_folio() and do_swap_page() to reduce LRU lock
contention and system overhead
By validating folio refcounts against the LRU cache before draining
and removing unnecessary drains in the swap path, it achieves up to a
30.5% reduction in drain calls during heavy swap workloads
- "mm: clean up folio LRU and swap declarations" (Jianyue Wu)
Reorganize folio LRU and swap code by relocating page-cluster state
to mm/swap_state.c, renaming mm/swap.c to mm/folio.c, and moving
MM-internal reclaim declarations into mm/internal.h.
- "userfaultfd: working set tracking for VM guest memory" (Kiryl
Shutsemau)
Add userfaultfd support for tracking the working set of VM guest
memory, so a VMM can identify hot pages and reclaim cold ones to

Hildenbrand)
Remove the remaining pieces of CONFIG_HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE,
performing some smaller cleanups around freeing of reserved vmemmap
pages on the way.
- "mm/damon: update probe hits for runtime parameter commits" (SJ Park)
Ensure that DAMON's probe_hits attribute counter is properly updated
when monitoring intervals are changed at runtime, matching the
behavior of nr_accesses. To achieve this, it refactors and renames
existing helper functions for shared use, applies the updates to
probe_hits, and handles edge cases in damon_probe_hits_mvsum() to
maintain measurement accuracy.
- "KSM: performance optimizations for rmap_walk_ksm" (xu xin)
Resolve a severe KSM reverse-mapping performance bottleneck where
thousands of split VMAs sharing a single anon_vma cause extended lock
contention.
By adding an interval-filtering check during the rmap walk, it
reduces worst-case anon_vma lock hold times from over 500ms down to
under 2ms, preventing application freezes and latency spikes under
memory pressure.
- "mm: split a couple of headers from internal.h" (Mike Rapoport)
Split declarations related to mm_init, memblock, vmalloc and sparse
into new headers
- "KSM: use linear_page_index in collect_procs_ksm()" (xu xin)
Apply the interval tree optimization from rmap_walk_ksm() to
collect_procs_ksm() to avoid iterating over non-matching VMAs during
KSM memory error handling.
It hoists loop-invariant address initialization and restricts the
anon_vma_interval_tree_foreach walk to a targeted page offset range,
reducing redundant checks and improving lookup efficiency.
- "selftests/mm: avoid false failures in hugetlb and KSM tests" (Sayali
Patil)
Fix issues in the hugetlb and KSM MM selftest categories that can
report failures when the prerequisites for the tests are not
satisfied
- "mm/damon: introduce data attributes only monitoring" (SJ Park)
Introduce attribute-weighted region management in DAMON, allowing
users to prioritize specific data attributes (such as page sizes or
cgroups) over or instead of access monitoring.
By assigning weights to attribute probes, DAMON can completely
disable access tracking and adjust monitoring regions based on
weighted probe-hit counters to optimize monitoring quality for
attribute-focused workloads.
- "mm/hmm: Add mmap lock-drop support for userfaultfd-backed mappings"
(Stanislav Kinsburskii)
Extend hmm_range_fault() to support userfaultfd-backed regions by
allowing the mmap lock to be dropped during fault handling via a new
hmm_range_fault_locked() helper.
By accepting a locked pointer and signaling retry status when lock
release occurs, it enables page fault resolution in userfaultfd
regions while preserving backward compatibility for existing callers.
- "mm: make VMA page offset handling more consistent" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
Clean up and standardize how vma->vm_pgoff is accessed and
manipulated across file-backed and anonymous mappings in the kernel
It introduces dedicated helper functions such as vma_start_pgoff(),
vma_end_pgoff(), vma_set_pgoff() and linear_page_delta() while
renaming rmap interval tree helpers to better reflect their
functionality.
These changes establish a cleaner foundation for future work that
will unify virtual page offset indexing for all anonymous and CoW'd
folios.
- "mm: handle device-private PMDs in walk callbacks" (Usama Arif)
Address kernel panics and state corruption caused by MM walk
callbacks reaching non-present device-private PMD swap entries
created during HMM migrations
It ensures that functions which acquire pmd_trans_huge_lock()
properly recognize device-private PMDs instead of assuming a present
THP or a standard migration entry.
- "mm/rmap: Refactor try_to_unmap_one" (Dev Jain)
Refactor try_to_unmap_one by modularizing Hugetlb,
anonymous-lazyfree, and anonymous-swapbacked logic into dedicated
functions, laying the structural groundwork for batched anonymous
large folio unmapping.
- "Docs/ABI/damon: sysfs ABI document fixes and additions" (Song Hu)
Fix typos and fills in missing entries in the DAMON sysfs ABI
document
- "dax/kmem: atomic whole-device hotplug via sysfs" (Gregory Price)
Introduce an atomic sysfs state attribute and supporting DAX/MM
infrastructure to prevent userland races when offlining and removing
entire memory regions
By adding an unplugged state alongside standard online modes, it
enables whole-device atomic hotplug control while preserving backward
compatibility.
- "mm: convert more vm_flags_t users to vma_flags_t" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
Continue transitioning the kernel from the deprecated vm_flags_t type
to vma_flags_t across core memory management infrastructure.
It replaces legacy type usage in core functions such as do_mmap(),
unmapped area allocation, mm->def_vma_flags, and VMA operations like
mlock, mprotect, and mremap.
- "Two small patches to clean up mm/mm_slot.h" (xu xin)
Refactor mm_slot.h by introducing mm_slot_remove() to unify duplicate
slot deletion sequences in khugepaged and KSM. It also adds code
documentation explaining why mm_slot_lookup and mm_slot_insert must
remain as preprocessor macros rather than static inline functions.
- "mm/damon/core: hide core-private struct fields" (SJ Park)
Clean up DAMON core structures by consistently marking internal-only
fields with private: comment tags to prevent improper direct access
from outer layers.
It enforces encapsulation across core structures including
damon_region, damon_target, and damon_ctx and updates DAMON_SYSFS to
interact through approved access APIs instead of exposing raw struct
members.
- "mm/damon: unurgent fixes for infinite loop, NULL de-ref and races"
(SJ Park)
Address potential infinite loops, NULL dereferences, and race
conditions identified in DAMON
It fixes an infinite loop triggered by extreme user configurations, a
NULL pointer dereference within unit tests and minor monitoring
accuracy degradation caused by subtle runtime races.
- "mm/page_alloc: fixes for free_pages_nolock() on RT/UP" (Brendan
Jackman)
Fix an NMI safety flaw in __free_frozen_pages() where freeing pages
on non-SMP or PREEMPT_RT kernels can bypass can_spin_trylock() checks
via non-PCP or isolated migration paths.
It also resolves potential kernel crashes and privilege escalation
risks triggered when BPF tracing runs in NMI context alongside memory
hotplug or large allocation frees.
- "mm/page_alloc: couple of followups for recent cleanups" (Brendan
Jackman)
Clean up and update page allocator nomenclature, documentation, and
debug assertions.
It aligns internal FPI_ flags with the public "nolock" naming
convention, removes outdated internal implementation details from
high-level page allocator comments, and eliminates obsolete
VM_BUG_ON() assertions in allocation paths.
- "mm/mseal: further cleanups" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
Refactor and simplify the mseal implementation by clarifying API
boundaries and removing unnecessary code complexity.
It replaces generic do_mseal() usage outside the syscall with a
dedicated mseal_mmap_page_zero() helper for MMAP_PAGE_ZERO,
eliminates mm_struct parameters to enforce that sealing applies only
to current->mm, and streamlines overall logic and comments with no
functional changes intended.
- "mm/vmscan: fix swappiness=max and clean up per-node proactive
reclaim" (Ridong Chen)
Resolve reclaim behavior bugs and clean up function parameters across
memory reclaim paths
It fixes swappiness=max in both standard reclaim and MGLRU so
unswappable anonymous memory no longer falls back to evicting page
cache, ensures reclaim_store() returns accurate error codes instead
of collapsing all failures into -EAGAIN, and removes the obsolete
gfp_mask parameter from __node_reclaim().
- "mm: mincore: misc cleanups" (Kefeng Wang)
Clean up and simplifies the mincore code. Most importantly, it
removes the historical special behavior that always reports VM_PFNMAP
pages as non-resident.
- "mm/huge_memory: drop dead split helper variants" (Kiryl Shutsemau)
Two trivial cleanups in the folio split API
- "mm/damon: fix uninitialized DAMOS field and kunit exec expectation
bugs" (SJ Park)
Resolve minor operational and testing bugs in DAMON identified by
Sashiko. It initializes the damos->last_applied field to prevent
occasional efficiency degradation and fixes invalid memory accesses
in DAMON KUnit tests during test failure handling.
- "cleanup for stable_page_flags()" (Jinjiang Tu)
Clean up and refactor stable_page_flags() used by /proc/kpageflags
without altering functionality.
It uses BIT_ULL() to prevent shift-overflow warnings on 64-bit flag
bits, converts folio-specific flag checks to standard folio_test_*()
helpers, and removes redundant CONFIG_PAGE_IDLE_FLAG handling.
- "Batch unmap of uffd-wp file folios" (Dev Jain)
Extend batched folio unmapping support to file folios within
userfaultfd write-protect (uffd-wp) VMAs by adding batching
capabilities to pte_install_uffd_wp_if_needed().
This removes special-case restrictions on uffd-wp VMAs in
try_to_unmap_one(), significantly simplifying the function's control
flow and complexity.
- "mm/early_ioremap: clarify and clean up early_ioremap_reset()"
(Sang-Heon Jeon)
Clarify and clean up the architecture-specific usage of
__late_set_fixmap() and __late_clear_fixmap() after
early_ioremap_reset()
It adds explicit documentation regarding when early_ioremap_reset()
must be called and removes redundant macro definitions and reset
calls in the RISC-V and ARM64 architectures.
- "mm: fix reclaim storms in defrag_mode" (Johannes Weiner)
Address severe performance regressions, swap storms, and spurious
OOMs caused by vm.defrag_mode=1 under high memory pressure in Meta
production
It updates the page allocator slowpath so non-movable allocation
requests actively trigger direct reclaim and direct compaction at
pageblock_order scale, allowing them to claim whole pageblocks rather
than spinning unproductively.
- "zram: lockmap tweaks" (Sebastian Siewior)
Optimize and fix lockdep tracking for zram devices by consolidating
per-entry lockmaps and isolate lock classes across multiple instances
This reduces memory overhead by replacing per-entry lockdep_map
instances with a single map per struct zram, and assigns a dynamic
lock_class_key to each instance to prevent false deadlock reports
when different zram devices are backed by distinct filesystems.
