mm/vma: add vma_flags_empty(), vma_flags_and(), vma_flags_diff_pair()
Patch series "mm/vma: convert vm_flags_t to vma_flags_t in vma code", v4. This series converts a lot of the existing use of the legacy vm_flags_t data type to the new vma_flags_t type which replaces it. In order to do so it adds a number of additional helpers: * vma_flags_empty() - Determines whether a vma_flags_t value has no bits set. * vma_flags_and() - Performs a bitwise AND between two vma_flags_t values. * vma_flags_diff_pair() - Determines which flags are not shared between a pair of VMA flags (typically non-constant values) * append_vma_flags() - Similar to mk_vma_flags(), but allows a vma_flags_t value to be specified (typically a constant value) which will be copied and appended to to create a new vma_flags_t value, with additional flags specified to append to it. * vma_flags_same() - Determines if a vma_flags_t value is exactly equal to a set of VMA flags. * vma_flags_same_mask() - Determines if a vma_flags_t value is eactly equal to another vma_flags_t value (typically constant). * vma_flags_same_pair() - Determines if a pair of vma_flags_t values are exactly equal to one another (typically both non-constant). * vma_flags_to_legacy() - Converts a vma_flags_t value to a vm_flags_t value, used to enable more iterative introduction of the use of vma_flags_t. * legacy_to_vma_flags() - Converts a vm_flags_t value to a vma_flags-t value, for the same purpose. * vma_flags_test_single_mask() - Tests whether a vma_flags_t value contain the single flag specified in an input vma_flags_t flag mask, or if that flag mask is empty, is defined to return false. Useful for config-predicated VMA flag mask defines. * vma_test() - Tests whether a VMA's flags contain a specific singular VMA flag. * vma_test_any() - Tests whether a VMA's flags contain any of a set of VMA flags. * vma_test_any_mask() - Tests whether a VMA's flags contain any of the flags specified in another, typically constant, vma_flags_t value. * vma_test_single_mask() - Tests whether a VMA's flags contain the single flag specified in an input vma_flags_t flag mask, or if that flag mask is empty, is defined to return false. Useful for config-predicated VMA flag mask defines. * vma_clear_flags() - Clears a specific set of VMA flags from a vma_flags_t value. * vma_clear_flags_mask() - Clears those flag set in a vma_flags_t value (typically constant) from a (typically not constant) vma_flags_t value. The series mostly focuses on the the VMA specific code, especially that contained in mm/vma.c and mm/vma.h. It updates both brk() and mmap() logic to utils vma_flags_t values as much as is practiaclly possible at this point, changing surrounding logic to be able to do so. It also updates the vma_modify_xxx() functions where they interact with VMA flags directly to use vm_flags_t values where possible. There is extensive testing added in the VMA userland tests to assert that all of these new VMA flag functions work correctly. This patch (of 25): Firstly, add the ability to determine if VMA flags are empty, that is no flags are set in a vma_flags_t value. Next, add the ability to obtain the equivalent of the bitwise and of two vma_flags_t values, via vma_flags_and_mask(). Next, add the ability to obtain the difference between two sets of VMA flags, that is the equivalent to the exclusive bitwise OR of the two sets of flags, via vma_flags_diff_pair(). vma_flags_xxx_mask() typically operates on a pointer to a vma_flags_t value, which is assumed to be an lvalue of some kind (such as a field in a struct or a stack variable) and an rvalue of some kind (typically a constant set of VMA flags obtained e.g. via mk_vma_flags() or equivalent). However vma_flags_diff_pair() is intended to operate on two lvalues, so use the _pair() suffix to make this clear. Finally, update VMA userland tests to add these helpers. We also port bitmap_xor() and __bitmap_xor() to the tools/ headers and source to allow the tests to work with vma_flags_diff_pair().

mm: move free_reserved_area() to mm/memblock.c
free_reserved_area() is related to memblock as it frees reserved memory back to the buddy allocator, similar to what memblock_free_late() does. Move free_reserved_area() to mm/memblock.c to prepare for further consolidation of the functions that free reserved memory. No functional changes.

memblock: move reserve_bootmem_range() to memblock.c and make it static
reserve_bootmem_region() is only called from memmap_init_reserved_pages() and it was in mm/mm_init.c because of its dependecies on static init_deferred_page(). Since init_deferred_page() is not static anymore, move reserve_bootmem_region(), rename it to memmap_init_reserved_range() and make it static. Update the comment describing it to better reflect what the function does and drop bogus comment about reserved pages in free_bootmem_page(). Update memblock test stubs to reflect the core changes.

Pull VDSO updates from Thomas Gleixner: - Provide the missing 64-bit variant of clock_getres() This allows the extension of CONFIG_COMPAT_32BIT_TIME to the vDSO and finally the removal of 32-bit time types from the kernel and UAPI. - Remove the useless and broken getcpu_cache from the VDSO The intention was to provide a trivial way to retrieve the CPU number from the VDSO, but as the VDSO data is per process there is no way to make it work. - Switch get/put_unaligned() from packed struct to memcpy() The packed struct violates strict aliasing rules which requires to pass -fno-strict-aliasing to the compiler. As this are scalar values __builtin_memcpy() turns them into simple loads and stores - Use __typeof_unqual__() for __unqual_scalar_typeof() The get/put_unaligned() changes triggered a new sparse warning when __beNN types are used with get/put_unaligned() as sparse builds add a special 'bitwise' attribute to them which prevents sparse to evaluate the Generic in __unqual_scalar_typeof(). Newer sparse versions support __typeof_unqual__() which avoids the problem, but requires a recent sparse install. So this adds a sanity check to sparse builds, which validates that sparse is available and capable of handling it. - Force inline __cvdso_clock_getres_common() Compilers sometimes un-inline agressively, which results in function call overhead and problems with automatic stack variable initialization. Interestingly enough the force inlining results in smaller code than the un-inlined variant produced by GCC when optimizing for size. * tag 'timers-vdso-2026-02-09' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: vdso/gettimeofday: Force inlining of __cvdso_clock_getres_common() x86/percpu: Make CONFIG_USE_X86_SEG_SUPPORT work with sparse compiler: Use __typeof_unqual__() for __unqual_scalar_typeof() powerpc/vdso: Provide clock_getres_time64() tools headers: Remove unneeded ignoring of warnings in unaligned.h tools headers: Update the linux/unaligned.h copy with the kernel sources vdso: Switch get/put_unaligned() from packed struct to memcpy() parisc: Inline a type punning version of get_unaligned_le32() vdso: Remove struct getcpu_cache MIPS: vdso: Provide getres_time64() for 32-bit ABIs arm64: vdso32: Provide clock_getres_time64() ARM: VDSO: Provide clock_getres_time64() ARM: VDSO: Patch out __vdso_clock_getres() if unavailable x86/vdso: Provide clock_getres_time64() for x86-32 selftests: vDSO: vdso_test_abi: Add test for clock_getres_time64() selftests: vDSO: vdso_test_abi: Use UAPI system call numbers selftests: vDSO: vdso_config: Add configurations for clock_getres_time64() vdso: Add prototype for __vdso_clock_getres_time64() |

Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
"Lock debugging:
- Implement compiler-driven static analysis locking context checking,
using the upcoming Clang 22 compiler's context analysis features
(Marco Elver)
We removed Sparse context analysis support, because prior to
removal even a defconfig kernel produced 1,700+ context tracking
Sparse warnings, the overwhelming majority of which are false
positives. On an allmodconfig kernel the number of false positive
context tracking Sparse warnings grows to over 5,200... On the plus
side of the balance actual locking bugs found by Sparse context
analysis is also rather ... sparse: I found only 3 such commits in
the last 3 years. So the rate of false positives and the
maintenance overhead is rather high and there appears to be no
active policy in place to achieve a zero-warnings baseline to move
the annotations & fixers to developers who introduce new code.
Clang context analysis is more complete and more aggressive in
trying to find bugs, at least in principle. Plus it has a different
model to enabling it: it's enabled subsystem by subsystem, which
results in zero warnings on all relevant kernel builds (as far as
our testing managed to cover it). Which allowed us to enable it by
default, similar to other compiler warnings, with the expectation
that there are no warnings going forward. This enforces a
zero-warnings baseline on clang-22+ builds (Which are still limited
in distribution, admittedly)
Hopefully the Clang approach can lead to a more maintainable
zero-warnings status quo and policy, with more and more subsystems
and drivers enabling the feature. Context tracking can be enabled
for all kernel code via WARN_CONTEXT_ANALYSIS_ALL=y (default
disabled), but this will generate a lot of false positives.
( Having said that, Sparse support could still be added back,
if anyone is interested - the removal patch is still
relatively straightforward to revert at this stage. )
Rust integration updates: (Alice Ryhl, Fujita Tomonori, Boqun Feng)
- Add support for Atomic<i8/i16/bool> and replace most Rust native
AtomicBool usages with Atomic<bool>
- Clean up LockClassKey and improve its documentation
- Add missing Send and Sync trait implementation for SetOnce
- Make ARef Unpin as it is supposed to be
- Add __rust_helper to a few Rust helpers as a preparation for
helper LTO
- Inline various lock related functions to avoid additional function
calls
WW mutexes:
- Extend ww_mutex tests and other test-ww_mutex updates (John
Stultz)

As discussed in [1], removing __cond_lock() will improve the readability of trylock code. Now that Sparse context tracking support has been removed, we can also remove __cond_lock(). Change existing APIs to either drop __cond_lock() completely, or make use of the __cond_acquires() function attribute instead.

static_call: allow using STATIC_CALL_TRAMP_STR() from assembly
STATIC_CALL_TRAMP_STR() could not be used from .S files because static_call_types.h was not safe to include in assembly as it pulled in C types/constructs that are unavailable under __ASSEMBLY__. Make the header assembly-friendly by adding __ASSEMBLY__ checks and providing only the minimal definitions needed for assembly, so that it can be safely included by .S code. This enables emitting the static call trampoline symbol name via STATIC_CALL_TRAMP_STR() directly in assembly sources, to be used with 'call' instruction. Also, move a certain definitions out of __ASSEMBLY__ checks in compiler_types.h to meet the dependencies. No functional change for C compilation.

objtool/klp: Introduce klp diff subcommand for diffing object files
Add a new klp diff subcommand which performs a binary diff between two
object files and extracts changed functions into a new object which can
then be linked into a livepatch module.
This builds on concepts from the longstanding out-of-tree kpatch [1]
project which began in 2012 and has been used for many years to generate
livepatch modules for production kernels. However, this is a complete
rewrite which incorporates hard-earned lessons from 12+ years of
maintaining kpatch.
Key improvements compared to kpatch-build:
- Integrated with objtool: Leverages objtool's existing control-flow
graph analysis to help detect changed functions.
- Works on vmlinux.o: Supports late-linked objects, making it
compatible with LTO, IBT, and similar.
- Simplified code base: ~3k fewer lines of code.
- Upstream: No more out-of-tree #ifdef hacks, far less cruft.
- Cleaner internals: Vastly simplified logic for symbol/section/reloc
inclusion and special section extraction.
- Robust __LINE__ macro handling: Avoids false positive binary diffs
caused by the __LINE__ macro by introducing a fix-patch-lines script
(coming in a later patch) which injects #line directives into the
source .patch to preserve the original line numbers at compile time.
Note the end result of this subcommand is not yet functionally complete.
Livepatch needs some ELF magic which linkers don't like:
- Two relocation sections (.rela*, .klp.rela*) for the same text
section.
- Use of SHN_LIVEPATCH to mark livepatch symbols.
Unfortunately linkers tend to mangle such things. To work around that,
klp diff generates a linker-compliant intermediate binary which encodes
the relevant KLP section/reloc/symbol metadata.
After module linking, a klp post-link step (coming soon) will clean up
the mess and convert the linked .ko into a fully compliant livepatch
module.
Note this subcommand requires the diffed binaries to have been compiled
with -ffunction-sections and -fdata-sections, and processed with
'objtool --checksum'. Those constraints will be handled by a klp-build
script introduced in a later patch.
Without '-ffunction-sections -fdata-sections', reliable object diffing
would be infeasible due to toolchain limitations:
- For intra-file+intra-section references, the compiler might
occasionally generated hard-coded instruction offsets instead of
relocations.
- Section-symbol-based references can be ambiguous:
- Overlapping or zero-length symbols create ambiguity as to which
symbol is being referenced.
- A reference to the end of a symbol (e.g., checking array bounds)
can be misinterpreted as a reference to the next symbol, or vice
versa.
A potential future alternative to '-ffunction-sections -fdata-sections'
would be to introduce a toolchain option that forces symbol-based
(non-section) relocations.

Merge tag 'slab-for-6.18' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vbabka/slab
Pull slab updates from Vlastimil Babka: - A new layer for caching objects for allocation and free via percpu arrays called sheaves. The aim is to combine the good parts of SLAB (lower-overhead and simpler percpu caching, compared to SLUB) without the past issues with arrays for freeing remote NUMA node objects and their flushing. It also allows more efficient kfree_rcu(), and cheaper object preallocations for cases where the exact number of objects is unknown, but an upper bound is. Currently VMAs and maple nodes are using this new caching, with a plan to enable it for all caches and remove the complex SLUB fastpath based on cpu (partial) slabs and this_cpu_cmpxchg_double(). (Vlastimil Babka, with Liam Howlett and Pedro Falcato for the maple tree changes) - Re-entrant kmalloc_nolock(), which allows opportunistic allocations from NMI and tracing/kprobe contexts. Building on prior page allocator and memcg changes, it will result in removing BPF-specific caches on top of slab (Alexei Starovoitov) - Various fixes and cleanups.

The slab changes for sheaves requires more effort in the testing code. Unite all the kmem_cache work into the tools/include slab header for both the vma and maple tree testing.

tools/include: implement a couple of atomic_t ops
Patch series "tools: testing: Use existing atomic.h for vma/maple tests", v2. De-duplicating this lets us delete a bit of code. Ulterior motive: I'm working on a new set of the userspace-based unit tests, which will need the atomics API too. That would involve even more duplication, so while the win in this patchset alone is very minimal, it looks a lot more significant with my other WIP patchset. I've tested these commands: make -C tools/testing/vma -j tools/testing/vma/vma make -C tools/testing/radix-tree -j tools/testing/radix-tree/maple Note the EXTRA_CFLAGS patch is actually orthogonal, let me know if you'd prefer I send it separately. This patch (of 4): The VMA tests need an operation equivalent to atomic_inc_unless_negative() to implement a fake mapping_map_writable(). Adding it will enable them to switch to the shared atomic headers and simplify that fake implementation. In order to add that, also add atomic_try_cmpxchg() which can be used to implement it. This is copied from Documentation/atomic_t.txt. Then, implement atomic_inc_unless_negative() itself based on the raw_atomic_dec_unless_positive() in include/linux/atomic/atomic-arch-fallback.h. There's no present need for a highly-optimised version of this (nor any reason to think this implementation is sub-optimal on x86) so just implement this with generic C, no x86-specifics.

tools headers: Add symlink to linux/pci_ids.h
Add a symlink to include/linux/pci_ids.h to tools/include/. This will be used by VFIO selftests in subsequent commits to match device and vendor IDs.

tools headers: Import asm-generic MMIO helpers
Import the asm-generic MMIO helper functions from the kernel headers into tools/include/. The top-level include is <linux/io.h> which then includes the arch-specific <asm/io.h>, which then includes <asm-generic/io.h>. This layout is chosen to match the kernel header layout and to appease checkpatch.pl (which warns against including <asm/io.h> or <asm-generic/io.h> directly). Changes made when importing: - Add missing includes at the top. - Stub out mmiowb_set_pending(). - Stub out _THIS_IP_. - Stub out log_*_mmio() calls. - Drop the CONFIG_64BIT checks, since tools/include/linux/types.h always defines u64.
