 - "mm/damon: optimize out nr_accesses_bp" (SJ Park)

   Replace the error-prone, continuously updated nr_accesses_bp field in
   damon_region with an on-demand moving sum function, reducing
   structure memory overhead and avoiding state corruption bugs

 - "Open HugeTLB allocation routine for more generic use" (Ackerley Tng)

   Decouple HugeTLB folio allocation from VMA dependencies by

   per-record allocation memory leaks and bound output copies in
   search_pattern() to address an existing buffer issue

 - "memcg: bail out reclaim when memcg is dying" (Jiayuan Chen)

   Mitigate a system-wide stall which occurs when a cgroup is removed
   while one of its memory control files is doing synchronous reclaim

 - "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
   tiered or remote storage

 - "mm: remove CONFIG_HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE (Part 2)" (David
   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.

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
 "One of the 'small improvements all over the place' releases for us.

  It's hard to draw any direct comparisons because summer vacations
  disrupted our patch processing (and presumably - generation) quite a
  bit.

  Quick and dirty count suggests we (Paolo and I) merged a very similar
  number of net (632) and net-next (648) patches. This is not telling
  the full story either because 1/3 to 1/2 of the net-next patches also
  *seem* like AI-driven low priority fixes, cleanups and clarifications.

  We are completely overwhelmed, of course. The glimmer of hope is that
  we secured sufficient LLM budget and access (thank you Meta!) to run
  reviews with multiple frontier models on each patch. This eliminates
  some hallucinations. That said, in terms of review, the LLMs can only
  do so much.

  The sad truth is that our APIs (especially for rare events like PCIe
  errors, timeouts etc) have always been racy, and now LLMs don't let us
  ignore that. I expect our direction for the next release will be to
  tweak the reviews a little bit more, but start shifting focus to
  letting the LLMs take care of the busy work - managing patchwork,
  automating common process complaints, editing commit messages, and
  maybe applying patches which already got "reviewed-by" tags from
  people we trust...

  Core & protocols:

   - A few steps lowering rtnl_lock dependence:
      - per-netns netdev unregistration for select SW drivers (e.g.
        veth, ipvlan, tunnels)
      - rtnl_lock-less FIB rule changes (RTM_NEWRULE and RTM_DELRULE)

Pull bpf updates from Daniel Borkmann:
 "Major changes:

   - Redesign the verifier error reporting: failures now carry source
     and instruction annotations along with the causal event history
     that led to them, making program rejections far easier to debug and
     repair (Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi)

   - Add arena argument support to kfuncs and struct_ops through the new
     __arena and __arena__nullable suffixes (Tejun Heo, Puranjay Mohan,
     Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi, Ihor Solodrai)

   - Signed BPF program loader rework to accommodate both BPF and
     security community needs where the kernel runs the signature
     verification at BPF_PROG_LOAD time before the LSM admission hook
     (Daniel Borkmann)

   - Add a set of ksock kfuncs which let BPF LSM and syscall programs
     create, connect and send on UDP sockets in order to emit telemetry
     data (Mahe Tardy)

   - Unify helper and kfunc call argument verification and classify
     kfunc arguments purely from BTF into a generated bpf_func_proto
     which is computed once at add-call time (Amery Hung)

  Other features and fixes:

   - Enable EXECMEM_ROX_CACHE for BPF allocations on x86 (Mike Rapoport)

   - Add bidirectional VLAN support to bpf_fib_lookup() through the new
     BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_VLAN and BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_VLAN_INPUT flags (Avinash
     Duduskar)

   - Infer zext_dst from static register liveness analysis to fix 32-bit
     zero-extension semantics, and remove the artificial limitations on
     pointer types eligible for spilling (Eduard Zingerman)

   - Inline the numeric open-coded iterator kfuncs so that bpf_for()
     loops no longer pay a kfunc call on every iteration (Puranjay
     Mohan)

   - Add an arena-based bitmap data structure to libarena along with
     serial and parallel selftests (Emil Tsalapatis)

   - Teach resolve_btfids to discover kfuncs from the kernel's BTF ID
     sets and to emit kfunc BTF decl tags, reducing the kernel build's
     dependency on pahole features (Ihor Solodrai)

   - Add BPF_F_ADJ_ROOM_DECAP_* flags to bpf_skb_adjust_room() so that
     tunnel decapsulation can update the GSO and encapsulation state of
     the skb (Nick Hudson)

   - Fix the ring buffer pending_pos walk and the available-data
     accounting on 32-bit position wrap (Israel Téllez García)

   - Add memory usage accounting for arena maps and fix an mmap_lock
     deadlock on arena lock failure (Jiayuan Chen)

   - Add tracing_multi link info support to the kernel UAPI and bpftool,
     and refactor the stack map code to run with preemption disabled
     (Jiri Olsa)

   - Support BPF_F_EGRESS in bpf_redirect_peer() to emit the skb in the
     egress direction of the target's peer device (Jordan Rife)

   - Add a KF_SPINLOCK_SAFE kfunc flag so that providers, in particular
     modules, can declare kfuncs safe to call under bpf_spin_lock
     instead of relying on the verifier's hard-coded allowlist (Kaitao
     Cheng)

   - Introduce global percpu data for BPF programs with libbpf probing
     and bpftool skeleton support, and stop exposing uninitialized
     kernel heap memory when copying per-CPU map values (Leon Hwang)

   - Add s390 JIT support for load-acquire and store-release
     instructions (Maxim Khmelevskii)

   - Fix a CFI mismatch in the task work callback and an arm64 KASAN
     false positive after bpf_throw() (Mykyta Yatsenko)

   - Reject writes through untrusted BTF pointers and bound the
     rdonly/rdwr_buf_size kfunc arguments (Nicholas Dudar)

   - Invalidate RCU pointers only after the final spin unlock and
     account for preempt and IRQ disabled regions as overlapping RCU
     protection (Ning Ding)

   - Support mixing bpf2bpf calls and tail calls on RV64, add signed
     operations and 32-bit atomics to the RV32 JIT, and add timed
     may_goto support (Pu Lehui, Kuan-Wei Chiu, Feng Jiang)

   - Fix a use-after-free on mm_struct in bpf_find_vma() for foreign
     tasks and an mmap_lock leak in the irq_work path (Sanghyun Park)

   - Populate mmap-able BPF array map memory lazily which makes mmap()
     O(1) instead of proportional to the map size (Song Liu)

   - Introduce a jit_required flag and reject programs with inlined
     helpers when no JIT is available, where the interpreter would
     otherwise jump into an invalid address (Tiezhu Yang)

   - Fix the x86 JIT per-CPU address resolution into an extended
     register where the REX prefix dropped the high destination register
     bit (Vineet Gupta)

   - Reject MEM_ALLOC BTF accesses past object bounds, arena frees below
     the arena base, and mixed arena and ordinary atomic paths (Yiyang
     Chen)

   - Fix the trampoline handling of 128-bit arguments and of return
     values larger than 8 bytes (Yonghong Song)

   - Ensure that any fault prone load is rewritten with exception table
     handling, and fix the arena load-acquire and atomic fetch handling
     in the x86, arm64, riscv and s390 JITs (Daniel Borkmann)

   - Many more fixes and cleanups across the verifier, arena,
     trampolines, sockmap, cgroup, ring buffer, x86/arm64/riscv/s390
     JITs, libbpf, bpftool, resolve_btfids and selftests"

Linus Torvalds 1d7443e4dc Merge tag 'fscrypt-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/fscrypt/linux
Pull fscrypt updates from Eric Biggers:
 "The main change this cycle is a significant simplification that's been
  overdue for a while now: standardizing on a single file contents
  encryption implementation in ext4 and f2fs, instead of having two.

  Specifically, the original filesystem-layer file contents encryption
  implementation is removed, and the blk-crypto implementation is now
  used unconditionally. blk-crypto delegates either to inline crypto
  hardware or to the CPU via blk-crypto-fallback. The latter is
  functionally equivalent to the original filesystem-layer code.

  The blk-crypto implementation already existed, but previously it was
  used only when the filesystem was mounted with "-o inlinecrypt". Now,
  "-o inlinecrypt" just selects whether inline crypto hardware is used.

  To allow maintaining that user control over hardware use, the
  blk-crypto API is extended with a new flag BLK_CRYPTO_CFG_ALLOW_HW.

  Overall, this removes quite a bit of redundant code from ext4, f2fs,
  and fs/crypto/. It should make things easier for ongoing filesystem
  efforts such as iomap support, large folios, and btrfs encryption
  (btrfs had already been planning to use blk-crypto exclusively.)

  There are two small behavior changes of note:

   - Direct I/O now works on encrypted files even without "-o inlinecrypt",
     rather than falling back to buffered I/O. This is effectively a
     bugfix, though I'll continue to keep an eye out for any user that
     may have been depending on the buffered I/O fallback.

   - IV_INO_LBLK_32 policies are no longer supported in certain cases
     that didn't make sense and have no known uses.

  This has been in linux-next since July 22 with no reported issues. All
  encryption xfstests pass on ext4 and f2fs. As usual I've also been
  using it on a system with an fscrypt-encrypted home directory. Of
  course, the blk-crypto code paths also aren't new and were already
  being used on many systems via the inlinecrypt mount option.

  In addition to the main change described above, there are a few other
  cleanups such as using lock guards for mutexes, improving
  documentation, and removing a workaround for outdated gcc versions"

Linus Torvalds cd051cfe1e Merge tag 'vfs-7.3-rc1.failfs' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull failfs filesystem from Christian Brauner:
 "Add failfs and expose a FD_FAILFS_ROOT sentinel.

  This allows userspace to shed their filesystem state completely. A
  process with its root or working directory in failfs must anchor every
  path lookup at an explicit file descriptor. Absolute paths, absolute
  symlinks and AT_FDCWD-relative lookups simply fail.

  Failfs is the counterpart to nullfs. nullfs says adds a permanently
  empty, immutable directory whose lookups fail with ENOENT but which
  can be opened, read, stat'd and mounted upon. Failfs on the other hand
  fails every operation. The root cannot be opened at all. A single
  instance is mounted during early boot via kern_mount(), which makes it
  logically distinct from every mount namespace.

  This is accompanied by a new fchroot() system call which makes
  chrooting via a file descriptor a first class concept. It's possible
  to chroot into failfs as an unprivileged user provided the task has no
  new privileges set"

Nick Hudson da199070bc bpf: Add BPF_F_ADJ_ROOM_DECAP_* flags for tunnel decapsulation
Add new bpf_skb_adjust_room() decapsulation flags:

- BPF_F_ADJ_ROOM_DECAP_L4_GRE
- BPF_F_ADJ_ROOM_DECAP_L4_UDP
- BPF_F_ADJ_ROOM_DECAP_IPXIP4
- BPF_F_ADJ_ROOM_DECAP_IPXIP6

These flags let BPF programs describe which tunnel layer is being
removed, so later changes can update tunnel-related GSO state
accordingly during decapsulation.

This patch only introduces the UAPI flag definitions and helper
documentation.

Bobby Eshleman b27a8560ee net: devmem: allow rx-page-size > PAGE_SIZE per dmabuf binding
Every devmem dmabuf binding today hands the page_pool PAGE_SIZE niovs.
This caps a single RX descriptor at PAGE_SIZE, burning CPU on buffer
churn for large flows.

Add a bind-time netlink attribute, NETDEV_A_DMABUF_RX_PAGE_SIZE, that
lets userspace request a larger niov size. The value must be a power of
two >= PAGE_SIZE.

The TX path is changed to always pass PAGE_SIZE.

Measurements:
Setup: kperf in devmem RX/TX cuda mode, 4 flows, 64 MB messages, 60s,
dctcp, num-rx-queues=4, dmabuf-rx/tx-size-mb=2048, 10 runs per niov
size, mlx5.

Simon Schippers 485e38995c tun/tap: add IFF_BACKPRESSURE flag
Add the IFF_BACKPRESSURE flag to the UAPI header and to its tools/ copy.
The flag has no effect yet, it is the opt-in switch for the qdisc
backpressure logic added by the following patches.

It is added to TUN_FEATURES only in the last patch of the series, once the
implementation is complete. Until then TUNSETIFF silently masks it off, as
it does for any flag outside TUN_FEATURES.

Keeping the flag and its users in separate patches would either leave a
window where backpressure is unconditional, or make the opt-in a later
add-on. Adding the flag first lets every following patch be a no-op
unless it is set.

Kiryl Shutsemau (Meta) 3628215f7f selftests/mm: add userfaultfd RWP tests
Coverage for UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_RWP and UFFDIO_RWPROTECT:

  rwp-async          async mode — touch pages, verify permissions are
                     auto-restored without a message
  rwp-sync           sync mode — access blocks, handler resolves via
                     UFFDIO_RWPROTECT
  rwp-pagemap        PAGEMAP_SCAN reports still-cold pages via
                     inverted PAGE_IS_ACCESSED
  rwp-mprotect       RWP survives mprotect(PROT_NONE) ->
                     mprotect(PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE) round-trip
  rwp-gup            GUP walks through a protnone RWP PTE (pipe
                     write/read drives the GUP path)
  rwp-async-toggle   UFFDIO_SET_MODE flips between sync and async
                     without re-registering
  rwp-close          closing the uffd restores page permissions
  rwp-fork           RWP survives fork() with EVENT_FORK; child's
                     PTEs keep the uffd bit
  rwp-fork-pin       RWP survives fork() on an RO-longterm-pinned
                     anon page (forces copy_present_page()); child
                     read auto-resolves and clears the bit, proving
                     PAGE_NONE was in place
  rwp-wp-exclusive   register with MODE_WP|MODE_RWP returns -EINVAL

All tests run against anon, shmem, shmem-private, hugetlb, and
hugetlb-private memory, except rwp-fork-pin which is anon-only —
copy_present_page() is the private-anon pinned-exclusive fork path.

Snapshot the RWP additions into tools/include/uapi/linux/userfaultfd.h so
the selftest builds without requiring "make headers" first, matching the
mechanism established by commit 580ea358af ("selftests/mm: fix
additional build errors for selftests").

Kiryl Shutsemau (Meta) 3389648819 mm/pagemap: add PAGE_IS_ACCESSED for RWP tracking
PAGEMAP_SCAN already reports PAGE_IS_WRITTEN from the inverted uffd PTE
bit, targeting the UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT workflow.  UFFDIO_RWPROTECT reuses
the same PTE bit as a marker for read-write protection, but "has been
written" and "has been accessed" are distinct semantic signals — they
happen to share one PTE bit today only because the two implementations
share infrastructure.

Give RWP its own pagemap category so the UAPI does not conflate them:

  PAGE_IS_WRITTEN   reported on VM_UFFD_WP VMAs,  !pte_uffd(pte)
  PAGE_IS_ACCESSED  reported on VM_UFFD_RWP VMAs, !pte_uffd(pte)

Both still read the same PTE bit today, but each is scoped to the VMA
whose registered mode makes the bit meaningful.  If a future
implementation moves RWP to a separate PTE bit, only PAGE_IS_ACCESSED
switches over.

This is a UAPI narrowing.  Outside VM_UFFD_WP VMAs the uffd bit is always
clear, so PAGEMAP_SCAN used to flag PAGE_IS_WRITTEN on every present PTE
there — a meaningless duplicate of PAGE_IS_PRESENT.  Now PAGE_IS_WRITTEN
fires only inside VM_UFFD_WP VMAs.

pagemap_hugetlb_category() now takes the vma like its PTE/PMD peers.

Joy H.J. Lee 8700a4761b tools/compiler: match glibc 2.42 definition of __attribute_const__
glibc 2.42 added __attribute_const__ to sys/cdefs.h:

    # define __attribute_const__ __attribute__ ((__const__))

GCC 15 warns when a macro is redefined to a different replacement list
(-Wbuiltin-macro-redefined). Since host tool Makefiles (resolve_btfids,
objtool) pass -Werror, this conflict becomes fatal.

The warning is suppressed on standard native builds because GCC treats
/usr/include as a system header path (-isystem), and macro-redefinition
warnings from system headers are silently suppressed by GCC. It fires
when glibc headers are on a regular include path (-I) instead, which
is the case in cross-compilation setups such as NixOS, where the
sysroot's glibc is passed explicitly via -I rather than -isystem.

Per (C11 6.10.3), identical replacement lists are accepted silently.
Match the glibc definition exactly, including the space before "((", so
the redefinition is accepted without warning regardless of whether
glibc headers are treated as system or non-system includes.

Avinash Duduskar 217828aad8 bpf: Add BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_VLAN_INPUT flag to bpf_fib_lookup() helper
BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_VLAN resolves a VLAN egress. The reverse is also
useful: an XDP program receiving a VLAN-tagged frame on a physical
device wants the lookup to behave as if the packet had arrived on the
corresponding VLAN subinterface, so iif-based policy routing and VRF
table selection use the right ingress.

Add BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_VLAN_INPUT. When set, params->h_vlan_proto and
params->h_vlan_TCI are read as an input VLAN tag and the matching VLAN
device of params->ifindex is resolved with __vlan_find_dev_deep_rcu().
The device must be up and in the same network namespace as
params->ifindex (a VLAN device can be moved to another netns while
registered on its parent; receive would deliver into that other
namespace, which a lookup here cannot represent). If params->ifindex
is itself a VLAN device, its inner (QinQ) subinterface is matched.
For a bond or team, a tag on a port matches no device and returns
NOT_FWDED; pass the master's ifindex.
The lookup then runs with the resolved device as the ingress;
params->ifindex itself is not modified on the input side. When the
resolved device is enslaved to a VRF, both the full lookup (via the
l3mdev rule) and BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_DIRECT (via l3mdev_fib_table_rcu())
select the VRF's table from the resolved ingress. That follows from
feeding the resolved device to the flow as the ingress
(fl4.flowi4_iif = dev->ifindex), which is what makes l3mdev resolve
the VRF master from the subinterface rather than from
params->ifindex.

The two failure classes get different treatment on purpose. A
h_vlan_proto other than 802.1Q/802.1ad is API misuse and returns
-EINVAL, since it would otherwise reach the WARN in vlan_proto_idx()
with a program-controlled value. An unmatched VID, a device that is
down, or one in another namespace is a data outcome and returns
BPF_FIB_LKUP_RET_NOT_FWDED, matching the DIRECT path when
fib_get_table() finds no table and mirroring real ingress, where the
receive path drops such frames. A VID of 0 (a priority tag) is looked
up literally and normally fails the same way; receive instead
processes such frames untagged, so callers should not set the flag for
priority tags. Proceeding on the physical device for any of these
would be fail-open for the policy-routing cases above.

The h_vlan fields share a union with tbid, so the flag cannot be
combined with BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_TBID. It describes ingress, so it also
cannot be combined with BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_OUTPUT. Both combinations
return -EINVAL; restricting now keeps a later relaxation backward
compatible. Combining with BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_VLAN is allowed: the tag is
consumed on the ingress side and the egress tag is written on
success.

Under !CONFIG_VLAN_8021Q the __vlan_find_dev_deep_rcu() stub returns
NULL, so every lookup with a valid proto returns NOT_FWDED, which is
correct since no VLAN device can exist.

Avinash Duduskar 35dac1daeb bpf: Add BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_VLAN flag to bpf_fib_lookup() helper
bpf_fib_lookup() returns the FIB-resolved egress ifindex straight
from the fib result. When the egress is a VLAN device, the returned
ifindex is the VLAN netdev's, which has no XDP xmit handler; XDP
programs that want to forward the frame (e.g. xdp-forward) must
instead target the underlying physical device and push the VLAN tag
themselves. Today the program has no way to learn either the
underlying ifindex or the VLAN tag without maintaining its own
VLAN-to-ifindex map in userspace and refreshing it on netlink
events.

Add BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_VLAN. When the caller sets this flag and the fib
result is a VLAN device whose immediate parent is a real (non-VLAN)
device in the same network namespace, populate the existing output
fields params->h_vlan_proto and params->h_vlan_TCI from the VLAN
device and replace params->ifindex with the parent's ifindex.
params->h_vlan_TCI carries the VID only, with PCP and DEI bits zero; a
consumer wanting to set egress priority writes PCP itself.
params->smac is the VLAN device's own address, which can differ from
the parent's.

Only the immediate parent is resolved, via vlan_dev_priv(dev)->real_dev
and not vlan_dev_real_dev(), which walks to the bottom of a stack. When
the immediate parent is not a real device in the same namespace, the
lookup returns BPF_FIB_LKUP_RET_VLAN_FAILURE and leaves params->ifindex
at the input. This covers a stacked VLAN (QinQ), where the immediate
parent is itself a VLAN device and one h_vlan_proto/h_vlan_TCI pair
cannot describe two tags, and a parent in another network namespace (a
VLAN device can be moved while its parent stays), whose ifindex would
be meaningless in the caller's namespace. A program that wants the
VLAN device's own ifindex re-issues the lookup, with a re-initialized
params, without BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_VLAN, so the unreducible case stays
distinct from a physical egress. That distinction matters for XDP: a
program cannot xmit on a VLAN device, so a success carrying the VLAN
ifindex would make it redirect to a device with no ndo_xdp_xmit and
drop the frame at xdp_do_flush(). The swap and the vlan fields are
written only on the reduce path; other output fields keep their
existing behaviour, so a frag-needed result still reports the route
mtu in params->mtu_result.

BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_VLAN is only useful to XDP, which cannot redirect to a
VLAN device. A tc program can redirect to the VLAN device directly, so
bpf_skb_fib_lookup() rejects the flag with -EINVAL; bpf_xdp_fib_lookup()
accepts it. When the flag is not set, behaviour is unchanged:
h_vlan_proto and h_vlan_TCI are zeroed and ifindex is left at the FIB
result.

The new block is compiled only under CONFIG_VLAN_8021Q since
vlan_dev_priv() is not defined otherwise; without that config
is_vlan_dev() is constant false and the flag is accepted but never
acts. That is safe because no VLAN device can exist there, so every
egress is already physical.

This lets an XDP redirect target the physical device and learn the
tag to push in a single lookup, which xdp-forward's optional VLAN
mode (xdp-project/xdp-tools#504) wants from the kernel side.

The helper's input semantics are unchanged; the reverse direction
(supplying a tag as lookup input) is added in the following patch.

- array of its related kernel addresses
- array of cookies

The change follows the kprobe_multi and uprobe_multi link-info convention
of optional output arrays with an in/out count,

On top of standard tracing link data we also expose addresses, because they
are useful info for user (especially when the attachment was done via pattern).
This data is hidden when kallsyms does not allow exposing kernel pointer values.

Jordan Rife 509ca545d4 bpf: Support BPF_F_EGRESS with bpf_redirect_peer
We have several use cases where a pod injects traffic into the datapath
of another so that the traffic appears to have originated from that
pod. One such use case is a synthetic flow generator which injects
synthetic traffic into a pod's datapath to enable dynamic probing and
debugging. Another is a transparent proxy where connections originating
from one pod are redirected towards another which proxies that
connection. The new connection is bound to the IP of the original pod
using IP_TRANSPARENT and its traffic is injected into that pod's
datapath and handled as if it had originated there. This can be used for
mTLS, etc.

We use bpf_redirect(BPF_F_INGRESS) to direct traffic leaving the proxy,
flow generator, etc. towards the target pod, ensuring that eBPF programs
that are meant to intercept traffic leaving that pod are executed.
However, this doesn't work with netkit.

With netkit, an ingress redirection from proxy to workload skips eBPF
programs that are meant to intercept traffic leaving the pod, since they
reside on the netkit peer device. One workaround is to attach the
same program to both the netkit peer device and the TCX ingress hook for
the netkit pair's primary interface, but

a) This seems hacky and we need to be careful not to run the same
   program twice for the same skb in cases where we want to pass that
   traffic to the host stack.
b) We're trying to keep the proxy redirection / traffic injection
   systems as modular and separated from Cilium as possible, the system
   that manages netkit setup and core eBPF programming.

It would be handy if instead we could redirect traffic directly from
one netkit peer device to another. This patch proposes an extension
to bpf_redirect_peer to allow us to do just that.

With this patch, the BPF_F_EGRESS flag tells bpf_redirect_peer to emit
the skb in the egress direction of the target interface's peer device
While the main use case is netkit, I suppose you could also use this
mode with veth as well if, e.g., there were some eBPF programs attached
to that side of the veth pair that needed to intercept traffic.

Using the proxy use case as an example, in step 5 we would redirect
traffic leaving the proxy towards the pod's peer device using
bpf_redirect_peer(BPF_F_EGRESS).

As a bonus, since the skb doesn't have to go through the backlog queue
it can take full advantage of netkit's performance benefits. I set up a
test where outgoing iperf3 traffic is injected into the datapath of
another pod using either bpf_redirect_peer(BPF_F_EGRESS) or
bpf_redirect(BPF_F_INGRESS). I used Cilium's eBPF host routing mode
which skips the host stack and uses BPF redirect helpers to do all the
routing.

Pull bpf updates from Alexei Starovoitov:
 "Major changes:

   - Recover from BPF arena page faults using a scratch page and add
     ptep_try_set() for lockless empty-slot installs on x86 and arm64.

     This allows BPF kfuncs to access arena pointers directly.

     The 'arena_direct_access' stable branch was created for this work
     and was pulled into sched-ext and bpf-next trees (Tejun Heo, Kumar
     Kartikeya Dwivedi)

   - Lift old restriction and support 6+ arguments in BPF programs and
     kfuncs on x86 and arm64 (Yonghong Song, Puranjay Mohan)

  Other features and fixes:

   - Add 24-bit BTF vlen and reclaim unused bits in the BTF UAPI to ease
     addition of new BTF kinds (Alan Maguire)

   - Raise the maximum BPF call chain depth from 8 to 16 frames (Alexei
     Starovoitov)

   - Refactor object relationship tracking in the verifier and fix a
     dynptr use-after-free bug (Amery Hung)

   - Harden the signed program loader and reject exclusive maps as inner
     maps (Daniel Borkmann)

   - Replace the verifier min/max bounds fields with a circular number
     (cnum) representation and improve 32->64 bit range refinements
     (Eduard Zingerman)

   - Introduce the arena library and runtime (libarena) with a buddy
     allocator, rbtree and SPMC queue data structures, ASAN support and
     a parallel test harness. Allow subprograms to return arena pointers
     and switch to a BTF type-tag based __arena annotation (Emil
     Tsalapatis)

   - Cache build IDs in the sleepable stackmap path and avoid faultable
     build ID reads under mm locks (Ihor Solodrai)

   - Introduce the tracing_multi link to attach a single BPF program to
     many kernel functions at once. Allow specifying the uprobe_multi
     target via FD (Jiri Olsa)

   - Extend the bpf_list family of kfuncs with bpf_list_add/del(), and
     bpf_list_is_first/is_last/empty() (Kaitao Cheng)

   - Extend the BPF syscall with common attributes support for
     prog_load, btf_load and map_create (Leon Hwang)

   - Wrap rhashtable as BPF map (Mykyta Yatsenko, Herbert Xu)

   - Add sleepable support for tracepoint programs and fix deadlocks in
     LRU map due to NMI reentry (Mykyta Yatsenko)

   - Fix OOB access in bpf_flow_keys, fix nullness analysis of inner
     arrays, enforce write checks for global subprograms (Nuoqi Gui)

   - Report the maximum combined stack depth and print a breakdown of
     instructions processed per subprogram (Paul Chaignon)

   - Add an XDP load-balancer benchmark and arm64 JIT support for stack
     arguments (Puranjay Mohan)

   - Add kfuncs to traverse over wakeup_sources (Samuel Wu)

   - Allow sleepable BPF programs to use LPM trie maps directly (Vlad
     Poenaru)

   - Many more fixes and cleanups across the verifier, BTF, sockmap,
     devmap, bpffs, security hooks, s390/riscv/loongarch JITs,
     rqspinlock, libbpf, bpftool, selftests"

Linus Torvalds b85966adbf Merge tag 'net-next-7.2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next
Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
 "Core & protocols:

   - Work on removing rtnl_lock protection throughout the stack
     continues. In this chapter:
       - don't use rtnl_lock for IPv6 multicast routing configuration
       - don't take rtnl_lock in ethtool for modern drivers
       - prepare Qdisc dump callbacks for rtnl_lock removal

   - Support dumping just ifindex + name of all interfaces, under RCU.
     It's a common operation for Netlink CLI tools (when translating
     names to ifindexes) and previously required full rtnl_lock.

   - Support dumping qdiscs and page pools for a specific netdev. Even
     tho user space wants a dump of all netdevs, most of the time, the
     OOO programming model results in repeating the dump for each
     netdev. Which, in absence of a cache, leads to a O(n^2) behavior.

   - Flush nexthops once on multi-nexthop removal (e.g. when device goes
     down), another O(n^2) -> O(n) improvement.

   - Rehash locally generated traffic to a different nexthop on
     retransmit timeout.

   - Honor oif when choosing nexthop for locally generated IPv6 traffic.

   - Convert TCP Auth Option to crypto library, and drop non-RFC algos.

   - Increase subflow limits in MPTCP to 64 and endpoint limit to 256.

   - Support MPTCP signaling of IPv6 address + port (ADD_ADDR). We need
     to selectively skip reporting of the standard TCP Timestamp option,
     because they won't fit into the header space together (12 + 30 >
     40).

   - Support using bridge neighbor suppression, Duplicate Address
     Detection, Gratuitous ARP and unsolicited NA forwarding - in EVPN
     deployments, e.g. VXLAN fabrics (IPv4 and IPv6).

   - Improve link state reporting for upper netdevs (e.g. macvlan) over
     tunnel devices (again, mostly for EVPN deployments).

   - Support binding GENEVE tunnels to a local address.

   - Speed up UDP tunnel destruction (remove one synchronize_rcu()).

   - Support exponential field encoding in multicast (IGMPv3 and MLDv2).

   - Support attaching PSP crypto offload to containers (veth, netkit).

   - Add a new IPSec Netlink message XFRM_MSG_MIGRATE_STATE that allows
     migrating individual IPsec SAs independently of their policies.

     The existing XFRM_MSG_MIGRATE is tightly coupled to policy+SA
     migration, lacks SPI for unique SA identification, and cannot
     express reqid changes or migrate Transport mode selectors.

     The new interface identifies the SA via SPI and mark, supports
     reqid changes, address family changes, encap removal, and uses an
     atomic create+install flow under x->lock to prevent SN/IV reuse
     during AEAD SA migration.

   - Implement GRO/GSO support for PPPoE.

   - Convert sockopt callbacks in a number of protocols to iov_iter.

  Cross-tree stuff:

   - Remove support for Crypto TFM cloning (unblocked after the TCP Auth
     Option rework). This feature regressed performance for all crypto
     API users, since it changed crypto transformation objects into
     reference-counted objects.

   - Add FCrypt-PCBC implementation to rxrpc and remove it from the
     global crypto API as obsolete and insecure.

  Wireless:

   - Major rework of station bandwidth handling, fixing issues with
     lower capability than AP.

   - Cleanups for EMLSR spec issues (drafts differed).

   - More Neighbor Awareness Networking (Wi-Fi Aware) work (multicast,
     schedule improvements, multi-station etc.)

   - Some Ultra High Reliability (UHR) / IEEE 802.11bn (D1.4) work
     (e.g. non-primary channel access, UHR DBE support).

   - Fine Timing Measurement ranging (i.e. distance measurement) APIs.

  Netfilter:

   - Use per-rule hash initval in nf_conncount. This avoids unnecessary
     lock contention with short keys (e.g. conntrack zones) in different
     namespaces.

   - Various safety improvements, both in packet parsing and object
     lifetimes. Notably add refcounts to conntrack timeout policy.

  Deletions:

   - Remove TLS + sockmap integration. TLS wants to pin user pages to
     avoid a copy, and sockmap wants to write to the input stream. More
     work on this integration is clearly needed, and we can't find any
     users (original author admitted that they never deployed it).

   - Remove support for TLS offload with TCP Offload Engine (the far
     more common opportunistic offload is retained). The locking looks
     unfixable (driver sleeps under TCP spin locks) and people from the
     vendor that added this are AWOL.

   - Remove more ATM code, trying to leave behind only what PPPoATM
     needs, AAL5 and br2684 with permanent circuits.

   - Remove AppleTalk. Let it join hamradio in our out of tree protocol
     graveyard, I mean, repository.

   - Disable 32-bit x_tables compatibility (32bit binaries on 64bit
     kernel) interface in user namespaces. To be deleted completely,
     soon.

   - Remove 5/10 MHz support from cfg80211/mac80211.

  Drivers:

   - Software:
       - Support DEVMEM/DMABUF Tx over NETMEM_TX_NO_DMA devices (netkit)
       - bonding: add knob to strictly follow 802.3ad for link state

   - New drivers:
       - Alibaba Elastic Ethernet Adaptor (cloud vNIC).
       - NXP NETC switch within i.MX94.

   - DPLL:
       - Add operational state to pins (implement in zl3073x).
       - Add generic DPLL type, for daisy-chaining DPLLs (implement in ice).

   - Ethernet high-speed NICs:
       - Huawei (hinic3):
           - enhance tc flow offload support with queue selection,
             tunnels

           - avoid over-copying payload to the skb's linear part (up to
             60% win for LRO on slow CPUs like ARM64 V2)
           - expose more per-queue stats over the standard API
           - support additional, unprivileged PFs in the DPU
             configuration
           - support Socket Direct (multi-PF) with switchdev offloads
           - add a pool / frag allocator for DMA mapped buffers for
             control objects, save memory on systems with 64kB page size
           - take advantage of the ability to dynamically change RSS
             table size, even when table is configured by the user
           - increase the max RSS table size for even traffic
             distribution
