2025-09-13panic: remove redundant panic-cpu backtraceSergey Senozhatsky
Backtraces from all CPUs are printed during panic() when SYS_INFO_ALL_CPU_BT is set. It shows the backtrace for the panic-CPU even when it has already been explicitly printed before. Do not change the legacy code which prints the backtrace in various contexts, for example, as part of Oops report, right after panic message. It will always be visible in the crash dump. Instead, remember when the backtrace was printed, and skip it when dumping the optional backtraces on all CPUs.

2025-09-13btree: simplify merge logic by using btree_last() return valueGuan-Chun Wu
Previously btree_merge() called btree_last() only to test existence, then performed an extra btree_lookup() to fetch the value. This patch changes it to directly use the value returned by btree_last(), avoiding redundant lookups and simplifying the merge loop.

2025-09-13watchdog: skip checks when panic is in progressJinchao Wang
This issue was found when an EFI pstore was configured for kdump logging with the NMI hard lockup detector enabled. The efi-pstore write operation was slow, and with a large number of logs, the pstore dump callback within kmsg_dump() took a long time. This delay triggered the NMI watchdog, leading to a nested panic. The call flow demonstrates how the secondary panic caused an emergency_restart() to be triggered before the initial pstore operation could finish, leading to a failure to dump the logs: real panic() { kmsg_dump() { ... pstore_dump() { start_dump(); ... // long time operation triggers NMI watchdog nmi panic() { ... emergency_restart(); // pstore unfinished } ... finish_dump(); // never reached } } } Both watchdog_buddy_check_hardlockup() and watchdog_overflow_callback() may trigger during a panic. This can lead to recursive panic handling. Add panic_in_progress() checks so watchdog activity is skipped once a panic has begun. This prevents recursive panic and keeps the panic path more reliable.

2025-09-13panic: introduce helper functions for panic stateJinchao Wang
Patch series "panic: introduce panic status function family", v2. This series introduces a family of helper functions to manage panic state and updates existing code to use them. Before this series, panic state helpers were scattered and inconsistent. For example, panic_in_progress() was defined in printk/printk.c, not in panic.c or panic.h. As a result, developers had to look in unexpected places to understand or re-use panic state logic. Other checks were open- coded, duplicating logic across panic, crash, and watchdog paths. The new helpers centralize the functionality in panic.c/panic.h: - panic_try_start() - panic_reset() - panic_in_progress() - panic_on_this_cpu() - panic_on_other_cpu() Patches 1–8 add the helpers and convert panic/crash and printk/nbcon code to use them. Patch 9 fixes a bug in the watchdog subsystem by skipping checks when a panic is in progress, avoiding interference with the panic CPU. Together, this makes panic state handling simpler, more discoverable, and more robust. This patch (of 9): This patch introduces four new helper functions to abstract the management of the panic_cpu variable. These functions will be used in subsequent patches to refactor existing code. The direct use of panic_cpu can be error-prone and ambiguous, as it requires manual checks to determine which CPU is handling the panic. The new helpers clarify intent: panic_try_start(): Atomically sets the current CPU as the panicking CPU. panic_reset(): Reset panic_cpu to PANIC_CPU_INVALID. panic_in_progress(): Checks if a panic has been triggered. panic_on_this_cpu(): Returns true if the current CPU is the panic originator. panic_on_other_cpu(): Returns true if a panic is on another CPU. This change lays the groundwork for improved code readability and robustness in the panic handling subsystem.

Generalization of panic_print's dump function [1] has been merged, and this patchset is to address some remaining issues, like adding note of the obsoletion of 'panic_print' cmdline parameter, refining the kernel document for panic_print, and hardening some string management. This patch (of 4): It is a normal case that bitmask parameter is 0, so pre-initialize the names[] to null string to cover this case. Also remove the superfluous "+1" in names[sizeof(sys_info_avail) + 1], which is needed for 'strlen()', but not for 'sizeof()'.

None of these helpers actually need CLONE_UNTRACED or "& ~CSIGNAL", but their presence does not add any confusion and improves code clarity.

2025-09-13watchdog/softlockup: fix incorrect CPU utilization output during softlockupZhenguoYao
Since we use 16-bit precision, the raw data will undergo integer division, which may sometimes result in data loss. This can lead to slightly inaccurate CPU utilization calculations. Under normal circumstances, this isn't an issue. However, when CPU utilization reaches 100%, the calculated result might exceed 100%. For example, with raw data like the following: sample_period 400000134 new_stat 83648414036 old_stat 83247417494 sample_period=400000134/2^24=23 new_stat=83648414036/2^24=4985 old_stat=83247417494/2^24=4961 util=105% Below log will output: CPU#3 Utilization every 0s during lockup: #1: 0% system, 0% softirq, 105% hardirq, 0% idle #2: 0% system, 0% softirq, 105% hardirq, 0% idle #3: 0% system, 0% softirq, 100% hardirq, 0% idle #4: 0% system, 0% softirq, 105% hardirq, 0% idle #5: 0% system, 0% softirq, 105% hardirq, 0% idle To avoid confusion, we enforce a 100% display cap when calculations exceed this threshold.

2025-09-13init: handle bootloader identifier in kernel parametersHuacai Chen
BootLoaders (Grub, LILO, etc) may pass an identifier such as "BOOT_IMAGE= /boot/vmlinuz-x.y.z" to kernel parameters. But these identifiers are not recognized by the kernel itself so will be passed to userspace. However user space init program also don't recognize it. KEXEC/KDUMP (kexec-tools) may also pass an identifier such as "kexec" on some architectures. We cannot change BootLoader's behavior, because this behavior exists for many years, and there are already user space programs search BOOT_IMAGE= in /proc/cmdline to obtain the kernel image locations: https://github.com/linuxdeepin/deepin-ab-recovery/blob/master/util.go (search getBootOptions) https://github.com/linuxdeepin/deepin-ab-recovery/blob/master/main.go (search getKernelReleaseWithBootOption) So the the best way is handle (ignore) it by the kernel itself, which can avoid such boot warnings (if we use something like init=/bin/bash, bootloader identifier can even cause a crash): Kernel command line: BOOT_IMAGE=(hd0,1)/vmlinuz-6.x root=/dev/sda3 ro console=tty Unknown kernel command line parameters "BOOT_IMAGE=(hd0,1)/vmlinuz-6.x", will be passed to user space.

Patch series "ida: Remove the ida_simple_xxx() API", v3. These are the final steps in removing the ida_simple_xxx() API. This series was last proposed in August 2024. Since then, some users of the old API have be re-introduced and then removed. A first time in drivers/misc/rpmb-core.c, added in commit 1e9046e3a154 ("rpmb: add Replay Protected Memory Block (RPMB) subsystem") (2024-08-26) and removed in commit dfc881abca42 ("rpmb: Remove usage of the deprecated ida_simple_xx() API") (2024-10-13). A second time in drivers/gpio/gpio-mpsse.c, added in commit c46a74ff05c0 ("gpio: add support for FTDI's MPSSE as GPIO") (2024-10-14) and removed in commit f57c08492866 (gpio: mpsse: Remove usage of the deprecated ida_simple_xx() API) (2024-11-22). Since then, I've not spotted any new usage. So things being stable now, it's time to end this story once and for all. This patch (of 3): ida_alloc() and ida_free() should be preferred to the deprecated ida_simple_get() and ida_simple_remove(). Note that the upper limit of ida_simple_get() is exclusive, but the one of ida_alloc_range()/ida_alloc_max() is inclusive. But because of the ranges used for the tests, there is no need to adjust them. While at it remove some useless {}.

2025-09-13kcov: use write memory barrier after memcpy() in kcov_move_area()Soham Bagchi
KCOV Remote uses two separate memory buffers, one private to the kernel space (kcov_remote_areas) and the second one shared between user and kernel space (kcov->area). After every pair of kcov_remote_start() and kcov_remote_stop(), the coverage data collected in the kcov_remote_areas is copied to kcov->area so the user can read the collected coverage data. This memcpy() is located in kcov_move_area(). The load/store pattern on the kernel-side [1] is: ``` /* dst_area === kcov->area, dst_area[0] is where the count is stored */ dst_len = READ_ONCE(*(unsigned long *)dst_area); ... memcpy(dst_entries, src_entries, ...); ... WRITE_ONCE(*(unsigned long *)dst_area, dst_len + entries_moved); ``` And for the user [2]: ``` /* cover is equivalent to kcov->area */ n = __atomic_load_n(&cover[0], __ATOMIC_RELAXED); ``` Without a write-memory barrier, the atomic load for the user can potentially read fresh values of the count stored at cover[0], but continue to read stale coverage data from the buffer itself. Hence, we recommend adding a write-memory barrier between the memcpy() and the WRITE_ONCE() in kcov_move_area().

2025-09-13ref_tracker: remove redundant __GFP_NOWARNQianfeng Rong
Commit 16f5dfbc851b ("gfp: include __GFP_NOWARN in GFP_NOWAIT") made GFP_NOWAIT implicitly include __GFP_NOWARN. Therefore, explicit __GFP_NOWARN combined with GFP_NOWAIT (e.g., `GFP_NOWAIT | __GFP_NOWARN`) is now redundant. Let's clean up these redundant flags across subsystems. No functional changes.

2025-09-13x86/kexec: carry forward the boot DTB on kexecBrian Mak
Currently, the kexec_file_load syscall on x86 does not support passing a device tree blob to the new kernel. Some embedded x86 systems use device trees. On these systems, failing to pass a device tree to the new kernel causes a boot failure. To add support for this, we copy the behavior of ARM64 and PowerPC and copy the current boot's device tree blob for use in the new kernel. We do this on x86 by passing the device tree blob as a setup_data entry in accordance with the x86 boot protocol. This behavior is gated behind the KEXEC_FILE_FORCE_DTB flag.

2025-09-01mm: fix possible deadlock in kmemleakGu Bowen
There are some AA deadlock issues in kmemleak, similar to the situation reported by Breno [1]. The deadlock path is as follows: mem_pool_alloc() -> raw_spin_lock_irqsave(&kmemleak_lock, flags); -> pr_warn() -> netconsole subsystem -> netpoll -> __alloc_skb -> __create_object -> raw_spin_lock_irqsave(&kmemleak_lock, flags); To solve this problem, switch to printk_safe mode before printing warning message, this will redirect all printk()-s to a special per-CPU buffer, which will be flushed later from a safe context (irq work), and this deadlock problem can be avoided. The proper API to use should be printk_deferred_enter()/printk_deferred_exit() [2]. Another way is to place the warn print after kmemleak is released.
