simplifies the act of creating a pte which addresses the first page in a
folio and reduces the amount of plumbing which architecture must
implement to provide this.
- The 8 patch series "Misc folio patches for 6.16" from Matthew Wilcox
is a shower of largely unrelated folio infrastructure changes which
clean things up and better prepare us for future work.
- The 3 patch series "memory,x86,acpi: hotplug memory alignment
advisement" from Gregory Price adds early-init code to prevent x86 from
leaving physical memory unused when physical address regions are not
aligned to memory block size.
- The 2 patch series "mm/compaction: allow more aggressive proactive
compaction" from Michal Clapinski provides some tuning of the (sadly,
hard-coded (more sadly, not auto-tuned)) thresholds for our invokation
of proactive compaction. In a simple test case, the reduction of a guest
VM's memory consumption was dramatic.
- The 8 patch series "Minor cleanups and improvements to swap freeing
code" from Kemeng Shi provides some code cleaups and a small efficiency
improvement to this part of our swap handling code.
- The 6 patch series "ptrace: introduce PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO API"
from Dmitry Levin adds the ability for a ptracer to modify syscalls
arguments. At this time we can alter only "system call information that
are used by strace system call tampering, namely, syscall number,
syscall arguments, and syscall return value.
This series should have been incorporated into mm.git's "non-MM"
branch, but I goofed.
- The 3 patch series "fs/proc: extend the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl to report
guard regions" from Andrei Vagin extends the info returned by the
PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl against /proc/pid/pagemap. This permits CRIU to more
efficiently get at the info about guard regions.
- The 2 patch series "Fix parameter passed to page_mapcount_is_type()"
from Gavin Shan implements that fix. No runtime effect is expected
because validate_page_before_insert() happens to fix up this error.
- The 3 patch series "kernel/events/uprobes: uprobe_write_opcode()
rewrite" from David Hildenbrand basically brings uprobe text poking into
the current decade. Remove a bunch of hand-rolled implementation in
favor of using more current facilities.
- The 3 patch series "mm/ptdump: Drop assumption that pxd_val() is u64"
from Anshuman Khandual provides enhancements and generalizations to the
pte dumping code. This might be needed when 128-bit Page Table
Descriptors are enabled for ARM.
- The 12 patch series "Always call constructor for kernel page tables"
from Kevin Brodsky "ensures that the ctor/dtor is always called for
kernel pgtables, as it already is for user pgtables". This permits the
addition of more functionality such as "insert hooks to protect page
tables". This change does result in various architectures performing
unnecesary work, but this is fixed up where it is anticipated to occur.
- The 9 patch series "Rust support for mm_struct, vm_area_struct, and
mmap" from Alice Ryhl adds plumbing to permit Rust access to core MM
structures.
- The 3 patch series "fix incorrectly disallowed anonymous VMA merges"
from Lorenzo Stoakes takes advantage of some VMA merging opportunities
which we've been missing for 15 years.
- The 4 patch series "mm/madvise: batch tlb flushes for MADV_DONTNEED
and MADV_FREE" from SeongJae Park optimizes process_madvise()'s TLB
flushing. Instead of flushing each address range in the provided iovec,
we batch the flushing across all the iovec entries. The syscall's cost
was approximately halved with a microbenchmark which was designed to
load this particular operation.
- The 6 patch series "Track node vacancy to reduce worst case allocation
counts" from Sidhartha Kumar makes the maple tree smarter about its node
preallocation. stress-ng mmap performance increased by single-digit
percentages and the amount of unnecessarily preallocated memory was
dramaticelly reduced.
- The 3 patch series "mm/gup: Minor fix, cleanup and improvements" from
Baoquan He removes a few unnecessary things which Baoquan noted when
reading the code.
- The 3 patch series ""Enhance sysfs handling for memory hotplug in
weighted interleave" from Rakie Kim "enhances the weighted interleave
policy in the memory management subsystem by improving sysfs handling,
fixing memory leaks, and introducing dynamic sysfs updates for memory
hotplug support". Fixes things on error paths which we are unlikely to
hit.
- The 7 patch series "mm/damon: auto-tune DAMOS for NUMA setups
including tiered memory" from SeongJae Park introduces new DAMOS quota
goal metrics which eliminate the manual tuning which is required when
utilizing DAMON for memory tiering.
- The 5 patch series "mm/vmalloc.c: code cleanup and improvements" from
Baoquan He provides cleanups and small efficiency improvements which
Baoquan found via code inspection.
- The 2 patch series "vmscan: enforce mems_effective during demotion"
from Gregory Price "changes reclaim to respect cpuset.mems_effective
during demotion when possible". because "presently, reclaim explicitly
ignores cpuset.mems_effective when demoting, which may cause the cpuset
settings to violated." "This is useful for isolating workloads on a
multi-tenant system from certain classes of memory more consistently."
- The 2 patch series ""Clean up split_huge_pmd_locked() and remove
unnecessary folio pointers" from Gavin Guo provides minor cleanups and
efficiency gains in in the huge page splitting and migrating code.
- The 3 patch series "Use kmem_cache for memcg alloc" from Huan Yang
creates a slab cache for `struct mem_cgroup', yielding improved memory
utilization.
- The 4 patch series "add max arg to swappiness in memory.reclaim and
lru_gen" from Zhongkun He adds a new "max" argument to the "swappiness="
argument for memory.reclaim MGLRU's lru_gen. This directs proactive
reclaim to reclaim from only anon folios rather than file-backed folios.
- The 17 patch series "kexec: introduce Kexec HandOver (KHO)" from Mike
Rapoport is the first step on the path to permitting the kernel to
maintain existing VMs while replacing the host kernel via file-based
kexec. At this time only memblock's reserve_mem is preserved.
- The 7 patch series "mm: Introduce for_each_valid_pfn()" from David
Woodhouse provides and uses a smarter way of looping over a pfn range.
By skipping ranges of invalid pfns.
- The 2 patch series "sched/numa: Skip VMA scanning on memory pinned to
one NUMA node via cpuset.mems" from Libo Chen removes a lot of pointless
VMA scanning when a task is pinned a single NUMA mode. Dramatic
performance benefits were seen in some real world cases.
- The 2 patch series "JFS: Implement migrate_folio for
jfs_metapage_aops" from Shivank Garg addresses a warning which occurs
during memory compaction when using JFS.
- The 4 patch series "move all VMA allocation, freeing and duplication
logic to mm" from Lorenzo Stoakes moves some VMA code from kernel/fork.c
into the more appropriate mm/vma.c.
- The 6 patch series "mm, swap: clean up swap cache mapping helper" from
Kairui Song provides code consolidation and cleanups related to the
folio_index() function.
- The 2 patch series "mm/gup: Cleanup memfd_pin_folios()" from Vishal
Moola does that.
- The 8 patch series "memcg: Fix test_memcg_min/low test failures" from
Waiman Long addresses some bogus failures which are being reported by
the test_memcontrol selftest.
- The 3 patch series "eliminate mmap() retry merge, add .mmap_prepare
hook" from Lorenzo Stoakes commences the deprecation of
file_operations.mmap() in favor of the new
file_operations.mmap_prepare(). The latter is more restrictive and
prevents drivers from messing with things in ways which, amongst other
problems, may defeat VMA merging.
- The 4 patch series "memcg: decouple memcg and objcg stocks"" from
Shakeel Butt decouples the per-cpu memcg charge cache from the objcg's
one. This is a step along the way to making memcg and objcg charging
NMI-safe, which is a BPF requirement.
- The 6 patch series "mm/damon: minor fixups and improvements for code,
tests, and documents" from SeongJae Park is "yet another batch of
miscellaneous DAMON changes. Fix and improve minor problems in code,
tests and documents."
- The 7 patch series "memcg: make memcg stats irq safe" from Shakeel
Butt converts memcg stats to be irq safe. Another step along the way to
making memcg charging and stats updates NMI-safe, a BPF requirement.
- The 4 patch series "Let unmap_hugepage_range() and several related
functions take folio instead of page" from Fan Ni provides folio
conversions in the hugetlb code.

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the usual selections of misc updates for this cycle.
Features:
- Use folios for symlinks in the page cache
FUSE already uses folios for its symlinks. Mirror that conversion
in the generic code and the NFS code. That lets us get rid of a few
folio->page->folio conversions in this path, and some of the few
remaining users of read_cache_page() / read_mapping_page()
- Try and make a few filesystem operations killable on the VFS
inode->i_mutex level
- Add sysctl vfs_cache_pressure_denom for bulk file operations
Some workloads need to preserve more dentries than we currently
allow through out sysctl interface
A HDFS servers with 12 HDDs per server, on a HDFS datanode startup
involves scanning all files and caching their metadata (including
dentries and inodes) in memory. Each HDD contains approximately 2
million files, resulting in a total of ~20 million cached dentries
after initialization
To minimize dentry reclamation, they set vfs_cache_pressure to 1.
Despite this configuration, memory pressure conditions can still
trigger reclamation of up to 50% of cached dentries, reducing the
cache from 20 million to approximately 10 million entries. During
the subsequent cache rebuild period, any HDFS datanode restart
operation incurs substantial latency penalties until full cache
recovery completes
To maintain service stability, more dentries need to be preserved
during memory reclamation. The current minimum reclaim ratio (1/100
of total dentries) remains too aggressive for such workload. This
patch introduces vfs_cache_pressure_denom for more granular cache
pressure control
The configuration [vfs_cache_pressure=1,
vfs_cache_pressure_denom=10000] effectively maintains the full 20
million dentry cache under memory pressure, preventing datanode
restart performance degradation
- Avoid some jumps in inode_permission() using likely()/unlikely()
- Avid a memory access which is most likely a cache miss when
descending into devcgroup_inode_permission()
- Add fastpath predicts for stat() and fdput()
- Anonymous inodes currently don't come with a proper mode causing
issues in the kernel when we want to add useful VFS debug assert.
Fix that by giving them a proper mode and masking it off when we
report it to userspace which relies on them not having any mode
- Anonymous inodes currently allow to change inode attributes because
the VFS falls back to simple_setattr() if i_op->setattr isn't
implemented. This means the ownership and mode for every single
user of anon_inode_inode can be changed. Block that as it's either
useless or actively harmful. If specific ownership is needed the
respective subsystem should allocate anonymous inodes from their
own private superblock
- Raise SB_I_NODEV and SB_I_NOEXEC on the anonymous inode superblock
- Add proper tests for anonymous inode behavior
- Make it easy to detect proper anonymous inodes and to ensure that
we can detect them in codepaths such as readahead()
Cleanups:
- Port pidfs to the new anon_inode_{g,s}etattr() helpers
- Try to remove the uselib() system call
- Add unlikely branch hint return path for poll
- Add unlikely branch hint on return path for core_sys_select
- Don't allow signals to interrupt getdents copying for fuse
- Provide a size hint to dir_context for during readdir()
- Use writeback_iter directly in mpage_writepages

be mounted in. This provides a consistent and simple security model.
With this it is possible to e.g., mount an overlayfs instance where

override_creds() have dropped CAP_SYS_ADMIN. It also allows the usage

Merge tag 'vfs-6.15-rc1.mount' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull vfs mount updates from Christian Brauner:
- Mount notifications
The day has come where we finally provide a new api to listen for
mount topology changes outside of /proc/<pid>/mountinfo. A mount
namespace file descriptor can be supplied and registered with
fanotify to listen for mount topology changes.
Currently notifications for mount, umount and moving mounts are
generated. The generated notification record contains the unique
mount id of the mount.
The listmount() and statmount() api can be used to query detailed
information about the mount using the received unique mount id.
This allows userspace to figure out exactly how the mount topology
changed without having to generating diffs of /proc/<pid>/mountinfo
in userspace.
- Support O_PATH file descriptors with FSCONFIG_SET_FD in the new mount
api
- Support detached mounts in overlayfs
Since last cycle we support specifying overlayfs layers via file
descriptors. However, we don't allow detached mounts which means
userspace cannot user file descriptors received via
open_tree(OPEN_TREE_CLONE) and fsmount() directly. They have to
attach them to a mount namespace via move_mount() first.
This is cumbersome and means they have to undo mounts via umount().
Allow them to directly use detached mounts.
- Allow to retrieve idmappings with statmount
Currently it isn't possible to figure out what idmapping has been
attached to an idmapped mount. Add an extension to statmount() which
allows to read the idmapping from the mount.
- Allow creating idmapped mounts from mounts that are already idmapped
So far it isn't possible to allow the creation of idmapped mounts
from already idmapped mounts as this has significant lifetime
implications. Make the creation of idmapped mounts atomic by allow to
pass struct mount_attr together with the open_tree_attr() system call
allowing to solve these issues without complicating VFS lookup in any
way.
The system call has in general the benefit that creating a detached
mount and applying mount attributes to it becomes an atomic operation
for userspace.
- Add a way to query statmount() for supported options
Allow userspace to query which mount information can be retrieved
through statmount().
- Allow superblock owners to force unmount

subsystem updates for 6.13-rc1. Sorry for doing this at the end of the
merge window, conference and holiday travel got in the way on my side
(hence the 5am pull request emails...)
Loads of things in here, and even a fun merge conflict!
- rust misc driver bindings and other rust changes to make misc
drivers actually possible. I think this is the tipping point,
expect to see way more rust drivers going forward now that these
bindings are present. Next merge window hopefully we will have pci
and platform drivers working, which will fully enable almost all
driver subsystems to start accepting (or at least getting) rust
drivers. This is the end result of a lot of work from a lot of
people, congrats to all of them for getting this far, you've proved
many of us wrong in the best way possible, working code :)
- IIO driver updates, too many to list individually, that subsystem
keeps growing and growing...
- Interconnect driver updates
- nvmem driver updates
- pwm driver updates
- platform_driver::remove() fixups, loads of them
- counter driver updates
- misc driver updates (keba?)
- binder driver updates and fixes

Pull overlayfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"Make overlayfs support specifying layers through file descriptors.
Currently overlayfs only allows specifying layers through path names.
This is inconvenient for users that want to assemble an overlayfs
mount purely based on file descriptors:
This enables user to specify both:
fsconfig(fd_overlay, FSCONFIG_SET_FD, "upperdir+", NULL, fd_upper);
fsconfig(fd_overlay, FSCONFIG_SET_FD, "workdir+", NULL, fd_work);
fsconfig(fd_overlay, FSCONFIG_SET_FD, "lowerdir+", NULL, fd_lower1);
fsconfig(fd_overlay, FSCONFIG_SET_FD, "lowerdir+", NULL, fd_lower2);
in addition to:
fsconfig(fd_overlay, FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "upperdir+", "/upper", 0);
fsconfig(fd_overlay, FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "workdir+", "/work", 0);
fsconfig(fd_overlay, FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "lowerdir+", "/lower1", 0);
fsconfig(fd_overlay, FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "lowerdir+", "/lower2", 0);
There's also a large set of new overlayfs selftests to test new
features and some older properties"
* tag 'vfs-6.13.ovl' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs:
selftests: add test for specifying 500 lower layers
selftests: add overlayfs fd mounting selftests
selftests: use shared header
Documentation,ovl: document new file descriptor based layers
ovl: specify layers via file descriptors
fs: add helper to use mount option as path or fd
Add a simple file stressor that lives directly in-tree. This will create
a bunch of processes that each open 500 file descriptors and then use
close_range() to close them all.
Concurrently, other processes read /proc/<pid>/fd/ which rougly does
f = fget_task_next(p, &fd);
if (!f)
break;
data.mode = f->f_mode;
fput(f);
Which means that it'll try to get a reference to a file in another
task's file descriptor table.
Under heavy file load it is increasingly likely that the other task will
manage to close @file and @file will be recycled due to
SLAB_TYPEAFE_BY_RCU concurrently. This will trigger various warnings in
the file reference counting code.
