git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup
Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo:
- Allow css_rstat_updated() in NMI context to enable memory accounting
for allocations in NMI context.
- /proc/cgroups doesn't contain useful information for cgroup2 and was
updated to only show v1 controllers. This unfortunately broke
something in the wild. Add an option to bring back the old behavior
to ease transition.
- selftest updates and other cleanups.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
"As usual, many cleanups. The below blurbiage describes 42 patchsets.
21 of those are partially or fully cleanup work. "cleans up",
"cleanup", "maintainability", "rationalizes", etc.
I never knew the MM code was so dirty.
"mm: ksm: prevent KSM from breaking merging of new VMAs" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
addresses an issue with KSM's PR_SET_MEMORY_MERGE mode: newly
mapped VMAs were not eligible for merging with existing adjacent
VMAs.
"mm/damon: introduce DAMON_STAT for simple and practical access monitoring" (SeongJae Park)
adds a new kernel module which simplifies the setup and usage of
DAMON in production environments.
"stop passing a writeback_control to swap/shmem writeout" (Christoph Hellwig)
is a cleanup to the writeback code which removes a couple of
pointers from struct writeback_control.
"drivers/base/node.c: optimization and cleanups" (Donet Tom)
contains largely uncorrelated cleanups to the NUMA node setup and
management code.
"mm: userfaultfd: assorted fixes and cleanups" (Tal Zussman)
does some maintenance work on the userfaultfd code.
"Readahead tweaks for larger folios" (Ryan Roberts)
implements some tuneups for pagecache readahead when it is reading
into order>0 folios.
"selftests/mm: Tweaks to the cow test" (Mark Brown)
provides some cleanups and consistency improvements to the
selftests code.
"Optimize mremap() for large folios" (Dev Jain)
does that. A 37% reduction in execution time was measured in a
memset+mremap+munmap microbenchmark.
"Remove zero_user()" (Matthew Wilcox)
expunges zero_user() in favor of the more modern memzero_page().
"mm/huge_memory: vmf_insert_folio_*() and vmf_insert_pfn_pud() fixes" (David Hildenbrand)
addresses some warts which David noticed in the huge page code.
These were not known to be causing any issues at this time.
"mm/damon: use alloc_migrate_target() for DAMOS_MIGRATE_{HOT,COLD" (SeongJae Park)
provides some cleanup and consolidation work in DAMON.
"use vm_flags_t consistently" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
uses vm_flags_t in places where we were inappropriately using other
types.
"mm/memfd: Reserve hugetlb folios before allocation" (Vivek Kasireddy)
increases the reliability of large page allocation in the memfd
code.
"mm: Remove pXX_devmap page table bit and pfn_t type" (Alistair Popple)
removes several now-unneeded PFN_* flags.
"mm/damon: decouple sysfs from core" (SeongJae Park)
implememnts some cleanup and maintainability work in the DAMON
sysfs layer.
"madvise cleanup" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
does quite a lot of cleanup/maintenance work in the madvise() code.
"madvise anon_name cleanups" (Vlastimil Babka)
provides additional cleanups on top or Lorenzo's effort.
"Implement numa node notifier" (Oscar Salvador)
creates a standalone notifier for NUMA node memory state changes.
Previously these were lumped under the more general memory
on/offline notifier.
"Make MIGRATE_ISOLATE a standalone bit" (Zi Yan)
cleans up the pageblock isolation code and fixes a potential issue
which doesn't seem to cause any problems in practice.
"selftests/damon: add python and drgn based DAMON sysfs functionality tests" (SeongJae Park)
adds additional drgn- and python-based DAMON selftests which are
more comprehensive than the existing selftest suite.
"Misc rework on hugetlb faulting path" (Oscar Salvador)
fixes a rather obscure deadlock in the hugetlb fault code and
follows that fix with a series of cleanups.
"cma: factor out allocation logic from __cma_declare_contiguous_nid" (Mike Rapoport)
rationalizes and cleans up the highmem-specific code in the CMA
allocator.
"mm/migration: rework movable_ops page migration (part 1)" (David Hildenbrand)
provides cleanups and future-preparedness to the migration code.
"mm/damon: add trace events for auto-tuned monitoring intervals and DAMOS quota" (SeongJae Park)
adds some tracepoints to some DAMON auto-tuning code.
"mm/damon: fix misc bugs in DAMON modules" (SeongJae Park)
does that.
"mm/damon: misc cleanups" (SeongJae Park)
also does what it claims.
"mm: folio_pte_batch() improvements" (David Hildenbrand)
cleans up the large folio PTE batching code.
"mm/damon/vaddr: Allow interleaving in migrate_{hot,cold} actions" (SeongJae Park)
facilitates dynamic alteration of DAMON's inter-node allocation
policy.
"Remove unmap_and_put_page()" (Vishal Moola)
provides a couple of page->folio conversions.
"mm: per-node proactive reclaim" (Davidlohr Bueso)
implements a per-node control of proactive reclaim - beyond the
current memcg-based implementation.
"mm/damon: remove damon_callback" (SeongJae Park)
replaces the damon_callback interface with a more general and
powerful damon_call()+damos_walk() interface.
"mm/mremap: permit mremap() move of multiple VMAs" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
implements a number of mremap cleanups (of course) in preparation
for adding new mremap() functionality: newly permit the remapping
of multiple VMAs when the user is specifying MREMAP_FIXED. It still
excludes some specialized situations where this cannot be performed
reliably.
"drop hugetlb_free_pgd_range()" (Anthony Yznaga)
switches some sparc hugetlb code over to the generic version and
removes the thus-unneeded hugetlb_free_pgd_range().
"mm/damon/sysfs: support periodic and automated stats update" (SeongJae Park)
augments the present userspace-requested update of DAMON sysfs
monitoring files. Automatic update is now provided, along with a
tunable to control the update interval.
"Some randome fixes and cleanups to swapfile" (Kemeng Shi)
does what is claims.
"mm: introduce snapshot_page" (Luiz Capitulino and David Hildenbrand)
provides (and uses) a means by which debug-style functions can grab
a copy of a pageframe and inspect it locklessly without tripping
over the races inherent in operating on the live pageframe
directly.
"use per-vma locks for /proc/pid/maps reads" (Suren Baghdasaryan)
addresses the large contention issues which can be triggered by
reads from that procfs file. Latencies are reduced by more than
half in some situations. The series also introduces several new
selftests for the /proc/pid/maps interface.
"__folio_split() clean up" (Zi Yan)
cleans up __folio_split()!
"Optimize mprotect() for large folios" (Dev Jain)
provides some quite large (>3x) speedups to mprotect() when dealing
with large folios.
"selftests/mm: reuse FORCE_READ to replace "asm volatile("" : "+r" (XXX));" and some cleanup" (wang lian)
does some cleanup work in the selftests code.
"tools/testing: expand mremap testing" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
extends the mremap() selftest in several ways, including adding
more checking of Lorenzo's recently added "permit mremap() move of
multiple VMAs" feature.
"selftests/damon/sysfs.py: test all parameters" (SeongJae Park)
extends the DAMON sysfs interface selftest so that it tests all
possible user-requested parameters. Rather than the present minimal
subset"

Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
"It has been a relatively busy cycle for docs, especially the build
system:
- The Perl kernel-doc script was added to 2.3.52pre1 just after the
turn of the millennium. Over the following 25 years, it accumulated
a vast amount of cruft, all in a language few people want to deal
with anymore. Mauro's Python replacement in 6.16 faithfully
reproduced all of the cruft in the hope of avoiding regressions.
Now that we have a more reasonable code base, though, we can work
on cleaning it up; many of the changes this time around are toward
that end.
- A reorganization of the ext4 docs into the usual TOC format.
- Various Chinese translations and updates.
- A new script from Mauro to help with docs-build testing.
- A new document for linked lists
- A sweep through MAINTAINERS fixing broken GitHub git:// repository
links.
...and lots of fixes and updates"

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sysctl/sysctl
Pull sysctl updates from Joel Granados:
- Move sysctls out of the kern_table array
This is the final move of ctl_tables into their respective
subsystems. Only 5 (out of the original 50) will remain in
kernel/sysctl.c file; these handle either sysctl or common arch
variables.
By decentralizing sysctl registrations, subsystem maintainers regain
control over their sysctl interfaces, improving maintainability and
reducing the likelihood of merge conflicts.
- docs: Remove false positives from check-sysctl-docs
Stopped falsely identifying sysctls as undocumented or unimplemented
in the check-sysctl-docs script. This script can now be used to
automatically identify if documentation is missing.

slices duration, for better handling of lag in the fair scheduler
(Vincent Guittot)
- Clean up and standardize #if/#else/#endif markers throughout the
entire scheduler code base (Ingo Molnar)
- Make SMP unconditional: build the SMP scheduler's data structures

- Add the second part of the attack vector controls which provide a lot
friendlier user interface to the speculation mitigations than
selecting each one by one as it is now.
Instead, the selection of whole attack vectors which are relevant to
the system in use can be done and protection against only those

Pull generic entry code updates from Thomas Gleixner:
- Split the code into syscall and exception/interrupt parts to ease the
conversion of ARM[64] to the generic entry infrastructure
- Extend syscall user dispatching to support a single intercepted range

Pull interrupt chip driver updates from Thomas Gleixner:
- Add support of forced affinity setting to yet offline CPUs for the
MIPS-GIC to ensure that the affinity of per CPU interrupts can be set
during the early bringup phase of a secondary CPU in the hotplug code
before the CPU is set online and interrupts are enabled
- Add support for the MIPS (RISC-V !?!?) P8700 SoC in the ACLINT_SSWI
interrupt chip
- Make the interrupt routing to RISV-V harts specification compliant so
it supports arbitrary hart indices
- Add a command line parameter and related handling to disable the
generic RISCV IMSIC mechanism on platforms which use a trap-emulated
IMSIC. Unfortunatly this is required because there is no mechanism
available to discover this programatically.
- Enable wakeup sources on the Renesas RZV2H driver
- Convert interrupt chip drivers, which use a open coded variant of
msi_create_parent_irq_domain() to use the new functionality
- Convert interrupt chip drivers, which use the old style two level
implementation of MSI support over to the MSI parent mechanism to
prepare for removing at least one of the three PCI/MSI backend
variants.

Pull gpio updates from Bartosz Golaszewski:
"There's one new driver (Apple SMC) and extensions to existing drivers
for supporting new HW models. A lot of different impovements across
drivers and in core GPIO code. Details on that are in the signed tag
as usual.
We managed to remove some of the legacy APIs. Arnd Bergmann started to
work on making the legacy bits optional so that we may compile them
only for older platforms that still really need them.
Rob Herring has done a lot of work to convert legacy .txt dt-bindings
for GPIO controllers to YAML. There are only a few left now in the
GPIO tree.
A big part of the commits in this PR concern the conversion of GPIO
drivers to using the new line value setter callbacks. This conversion
is now complete treewide (unless I've missed something) and once all
the changes from different trees land in mainline, I'll send you
another PR containing a commit dropping the legacy callbacks from the
tree.
As the quest to pay back technical dept never really ends, we're
starting another set of interface conversions, this time it's about
moving fields specific to only a handful of drivers using the
gpio-mmio helper out of the core gpio_chip structure that every
controller implements and uses. This cycle we introduce a new set of
APIs and convert a few drivers under drivers/gpio/, next cycle we'll
convert remaining modules treewide (in gpio, pinctrl and mfd trees)
and finally remove the old interfaces and move the gpio-mmio fields
into their own structure wrapping gpio_chip.
One last change I should mention here is the rework of the sysfs
interface. In 2016, we introduced the GPIO character device as the
preferred alternative to the sysfs class under /sys/class/gpio. While
it has seen a wide adoption with the help of its user-space
counterpart - libgpiod - there are still users who prefer the
simplicity of sysfs.
As far as the GPIO subsystem is concerned, the problem is not the
existince of the GPIO class as such but rather the fact that it
exposes the global GPIO numbers to the user-space, stopping us from
ever being able to remove the numberspace from the kernel. To that
end, this release we introduced a parallel, limited sysfs interface
that doesn't expose these numbers and only implements a subset of
features that are relevant to the existing users. This is a result of
several discussions over the course of last year and should allow us
to remove the legacy part some time in the future.
Summary:
GPIOLIB core:
- introduce a parallel, limited sysfs user ABI that doesn't expose
the global GPIO numbers to user-space while maintaining backward
compatibility with the end goal of it completely replacing the
existing interface, allowing us to remove it
- remove the legacy devm_gpio_request() routine which has no more
users
- start the process of allowing to compile-out the legacy parts of
the GPIO core for users who don't need it by introducing a new
Kconfig option: GPIOLIB_LEGACY
- don't use global GPIO numbers in debugfs output from the core code
(drivers still do it, the work is ongoing)
- start the process of moving the fields specific to the gpio-mmio
helper out of the core struct gpio_chip into their own structure
that wraps it: create a new header with modern interfaces and
convert several drivers to using it
- remove the platform data structure associated with the gpio-mmio
helper from the kernel after having converted all remaining users
to generic device properties
- remove legacy struct gpio definition as it has no more users
New drivers:
- add the GPIO driver for the Apple System Management Controller
Driver improvements:
- add support for new models to gpio-adp5585, gpio-tps65219 and
gpio-pca953x
- extend the interrupt support in gpio-loongson-64bit
- allow to mark the simulated GPIO lines as invalid in gpio-sim
- convert all remaining GPIO drivers to using the new GPIO value
setter callbacks
- convert gpio-rcar to using simple device power management ops
callbacks
- don't check if current direction of a line is output before setting
the value in gpio-pisosr and ti-fpc202: the GPIO core already
handles that
- also drop unneeded GPIO range checks in drivers, the core already
makes sure we're within bounds when calling driver callbacks
- use dev_fwnode() where applicable across GPIO drivers
- set line value in gpio-zynqmp-modepin and gpio-twl6040 when the
user wants to change direction of the pin to output even though
these drivers don't need to do anything else to actually set the
direction, otherwise a call like gpiod_direction_output(d, 1) will
not result in the line driver high
- remove the reduntant call to pm_runtime_mark_last_busy() from
gpio-arizona
- use lock guards in gpio-cadence and gpio-mxc
- check the return values of regmap functions in gpio-wcd934x and
gpio-tps65912
- use better regmap interfaces in gpio-wcove and gpio-pca953x
- remove dummy GPIO chip callbacks from several drivers in cases
where the GPIO core can already handle their absence
- allow building gpio-palmas as a module
Fixes:
- use correct bit widths (according to the documentation) in
gpio-virtio
Device-tree bindings:
- convert several of the legacy .txt documents for many different
devices to YAML, improving automatic validation
- create a "trivial" GPIO DT schema that covers a wide range of
simple hardware that share a set of basic GPIO properties
- document new HW: Apple MAC SMC GPIO block and adp5589 I/O expander
- document a new model for pca95xx
- add and/or remove properties in YAML documents for gpio-rockchip,
fsl,qoriq-gpio, arm,pl061 and gpio-xilinx
Misc:
- some minor refactoring in several places, adding/removing forward
declarations, moving defines to better places, constify the
arguments in some functions, remove duplicate includes, etc.
- documentation updates"

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"As is tradition, cpufreq is the part with the largest number of
updates that include core fixes and cleanups as well as updates of
several assorted drivers, but there are also quite a few updates

Runtime PM is also updated to allow some code duplication in drivers
to be eliminated going forward and to work more consistently overall
in some cases.
Apart from that, there are some driver core updates related to PM

Pull selinux updates from Paul Moore:
- Introduce the concept of a SELinux "neveraudit" type which prevents
all auditing of the given type/domain.
Taken by itself, the benefit of marking a SELinux domain with the
"neveraudit" tag is likely not very interesting, especially given the
significant overlap with the "dontaudit" tag.
However, given that the "neveraudit" tag applies to *all* auditing of
the tagged domain, we can do some fairly interesting optimizations
when a SELinux domain is marked as both "permissive" and "dontaudit"
(think of the unconfined_t domain).
While this pull request includes optimized inode permission and
getattr hooks, these optimizations require SELinux policy changes,
therefore the improvements may not be visible on standard downstream
Linux distos for a period of time.
- Continue the deprecation process of /sys/fs/selinux/user.
After removing the associated userspace code in 2020, we marked the
/sys/fs/selinux/user interface as deprecated in Linux v6.13 with
pr_warn() and the usual documention update.
This adds a five second sleep after the pr_warn(), following a
previous deprecation process pattern that has worked well for us in
the past in helping identify any existing users that we haven't yet
reached.
- Add a __GFP_NOWARN flag to our initial hash table allocation.
Fuzzers such a syzbot often attempt abnormally large SELinux policy
loads, which the SELinux code gracefully handles by checking for
allocation failures, but not before the allocator emits a warning
which causes the automated fuzzing to flag this as an error and
report it to the list. While we want to continue to support the work
done by the fuzzing teams, we want to focus on proper issues and not
an error case that is already handled safely. Add a NOWARN flag to
quiet the allocator and prevent syzbot from tripping on this again.
- Remove some unnecessary selinuxfs cleanup code, courtesy of Al.
- Update the SELinux in-kernel documentation with pointers to
additional information.

Rather confusingly, setting all Transparent Huge Page sysfs settings to
"never" does not in fact result in THP being globally disabled.
Rather, it results in khugepaged being disabled, but one can still obtain
THP pages using madvise(..., MADV_COLLAPSE).
This is something that has remained poorly documented for some time, and
it is likely the received wisdom of most users of THP that never does, in
fact, mean never.
It is therefore important to highlight, very clearly, that this is not the
case.

Platforms supporting direct message request v2 [1] can support secure
partitions that support multiple services. For CRB over FF-A interface,
if the firmware TPM or TPM service [1] shares its Secure Partition (SP)
with another service, message requests may fail with a -EBUSY error.
To handle this, replace the single check and call with a retry loop
that attempts the TPM message send operation until it succeeds or a
configurable timeout is reached. Implement a _try_send_receive function
to do a single send/receive and modify the existing send_receive to
add this retry loop.
The retry mechanism introduces a module parameter (`busy_timeout_ms`,
default: 2000ms) to control how long to keep retrying on -EBUSY
responses. Between retries, the code waits briefly (50-100 microseconds)
to avoid busy-waiting and handling TPM BUSY conditions more gracefully.
The parameter can be modified at run-time as such:
echo 3000 | tee /sys/module/tpm_crb_ffa/parameters/busy_timeout_ms
This changes the timeout from the default 2000ms to 3000ms.

- Rename CONFIG_GCC_PLUGIN_STACKLEAK as needed to CONFIG_KSTACK_ERASE,
but keep it for anything specific to the GCC plugin itself.
- Rename all exposed "STACKLEAK" names and files to "KSTACK_ERASE" (named
for what it does rather than what it protects against), but leave as
many of the internals alone as possible to avoid even more churn.
While here, also split "prev_lowest_stack" into CONFIG_KSTACK_ERASE_METRICS,
since that's the only place it is referenced from.

/proc/cgroups lists only v1 controllers by default, however, this is
only enforced since the commit af000ce85293b ("cgroup: Do not report
unavailable v1 controllers in /proc/cgroups") and there is software in
the wild that uses content of /proc/cgroups to decide on availability of
v2 (sic) controllers.
Add a boottime param that can bring back the previous behavior for
setups where the check in the software cannot be changed and it causes
e.g. unintended OOMs.
Also, this patch takes out cgrp_v1_visible from cgroup1_subsys_absent()
guard since it's only important to check which hierarchy (v1 vs v2) the
subsys is attached to. This has no effect on the printed message but
the code is cleaner since cgrp_v1_visible is really about mounted
hierarchies, not the content of /proc/cgroups.

When injecting IPIs to a set of harts, the IMSIC IPI support will do a
separate MMIO write to the SETIPNUM_LE register of each target hart. This
means on a platform where IMSIC is trap-n-emulated, there will be N MMIO
traps when injecting IPI to N target harts hence IMSIC IPIs will be slow on
such platforms compared to the SBI IPI extension.
Unfortunately, there is no DT, ACPI, or any other way of discovering
whether the underlying IMSIC is trap-n-emulated. Using MMIO write to the
SETIPNUM_LE register for injecting IPI is purely a software choice in the
IMSIC driver hence add a kernel parameter to allow users to disable IMSIC
IPIs on platforms with trap-n-emulated IMSIC.

Document the 5 new attack vector command line options, how they
interact with existing vulnerability controls, and recommendations on when
they can be disabled.
Note that while mitigating against untrusted userspace requires both
user-to-kernel and user-to-user protection, these are kept separate. The
kernel can control what code executes inside of it and that may affect the
risk associated with vulnerabilities especially if new kernel mitigations
are implemented. The same isn't typically true of userspace.
In other words, the risk associated with user-to-user or guest-to-guest
attacks is unlikely to change over time. While the risk associated with
user-to-kernel or guest-to-host attacks may change. Therefore, these
controls are separated.

On some platforms, device dependencies are not properly represented by
device links, which can cause issues when asynchronous power management
is enabled. While it is possible to disable this via sysfs, doing so
at runtime can race with the first system suspend event.
This patch introduces a kernel command-line parameter, "pm_async", which
can be set to "off" to globally disable asynchronous suspend and resume
operations from early boot. It effectively provides a way to set the
initial value of the existing pm_async sysfs knob at boot time. This
offers a robust method to fall back to synchronous (sequential)
operation, which can stabilize platforms with problematic dependencies
and also serve as a useful debugging tool.
The default behavior remains unchanged (asynchronous enabled). To
disable it, boot the kernel with the "pm_async=off" parameter.

This reverts commit ad6b26b6a0a79166b53209df2ca1cf8636296382.
This commit introduces per-memcg/task NUMA balance statistics, but
unfortunately it introduced a NULL pointer exception due to the following
race condition: After a swap task candidate was chosen, its mm_struct
pointer was set to NULL due to task exit. Later, when performing the
actual task swapping, the p->mm caused the problem.
CPU0 CPU1
:
...
task_numa_migrate
task_numa_find_cpu
task_numa_compare
# a normal task p is chosen
env->best_task = p
# p exit:
exit_signals(p);
p->flags |= PF_EXITING
exit_mm
p->mm = NULL;
migrate_swap_stop
__migrate_swap_task((arg->src_task, arg->dst_cpu)
count_memcg_event_mm(p->mm, NUMA_TASK_SWAP)# p->mm is NULL
task_lock() should be held and the PF_EXITING flag needs to be checked to
prevent this from happening. After discussion, the conclusion was that
adding a lock is not worthwhile for some statistics calculations. Revert
the change and rely on the tracepoint for this purpose.

interface called 'valid'. It's set by default and the user can unset it
to make the line be included in the standard `gpio-reserved-ranges`
property when the chip is registered with GPIO core. This allows users
to specify which lines should not be available for requesting as GPIOs.
