Pull Rust updates from Miguel Ojeda:
"Toolchain and infrastructure:
- KUnit '#[test]'s:
- Support KUnit-mapped 'assert!' macros.
The support that landed last cycle was very basic, and the
'assert!' macros panicked since they were the standard library
ones. Now, they are mapped to the KUnit ones in a similar way to
how is done for doctests, reusing the infrastructure there.
With this, a failing test like:
#[test]
fn my_first_test() {
assert_eq!(42, 43);
}
will report:
# my_first_test: ASSERTION FAILED at rust/kernel/lib.rs:251
Expected 42 == 43 to be true, but is false
# my_first_test.speed: normal
not ok 1 my_first_test
- Support tests with checked 'Result' return types.
The return value of test functions that return a 'Result' will
be checked, thus one can now easily catch errors when e.g. using
the '?' operator in tests.
With this, a failing test like:
#[test]
fn my_test() -> Result {
f()?;
Ok(())
}
will report:
# my_test: ASSERTION FAILED at rust/kernel/lib.rs:321
Expected is_test_result_ok(my_test()) to be true, but is false
# my_test.speed: normal
not ok 1 my_test
- Add 'kunit_tests' to the prelude.
- Clarify the remaining language unstable features in use.
- Compile 'core' with edition 2024 for Rust >= 1.87.
- Workaround 'bindgen' issue with forward references to 'enum' types.
- objtool: relax slice condition to cover more 'noreturn' functions.
- Use absolute paths in macros referencing 'core' and 'kernel'
crates.
- Skip '-mno-fdpic' flag for bindgen in GCC 32-bit arm builds.
- Clean some 'doc_markdown' lint hits -- we may enable it later on.
'kernel' crate:
- 'alloc' module:
- 'Box': support for type coercion, e.g. 'Box<T>' to 'Box<dyn U>'
if 'T' implements 'U'.
- 'Vec': implement new methods (prerequisites for nova-core and
binder): 'truncate', 'resize', 'clear', 'pop',
'push_within_capacity' (with new error type 'PushError'),
'drain_all', 'retain', 'remove' (with new error type
'RemoveError'), insert_within_capacity' (with new error type
'InsertError').
In addition, simplify 'push' using 'spare_capacity_mut', split
'set_len' into 'inc_len' and 'dec_len', add type invariant 'len
<= capacity' and simplify 'truncate' using 'dec_len'.
- 'time' module:
- Morph the Rust hrtimer subsystem into the Rust timekeeping
subsystem, covering delay, sleep, timekeeping, timers. This new
subsystem has all the relevant timekeeping C maintainers listed
in the entry.
- Replace 'Ktime' with 'Delta' and 'Instant' types to represent a
duration of time and a point in time.
- Temporarily add 'Ktime' to 'hrtimer' module to allow 'hrtimer'
to delay converting to 'Instant' and 'Delta'.
- 'xarray' module:
- Add a Rust abstraction for the 'xarray' data structure. This
abstraction allows Rust code to leverage the 'xarray' to store
types that implement 'ForeignOwnable'. This support is a
dependency for memory backing feature of the Rust null block
driver, which is waiting to be merged.
- Set up an entry in 'MAINTAINERS' for the XArray Rust support.
Patches will go to the new Rust XArray tree and then via the
Rust subsystem tree for now.
- Allow 'ForeignOwnable' to carry information about the pointed-to
type. This helps asserting alignment requirements for the
pointer passed to the foreign language.
- 'container_of!': retain pointer mut-ness and add a compile-time
check of the type of the first parameter ('$field_ptr').
- Support optional message in 'static_assert!'.
- Add C FFI types (e.g. 'c_int') to the prelude.
- 'str' module: simplify KUnit tests 'format!' macro, convert
'rusttest' tests into KUnit, take advantage of the '-> Result'
support in KUnit '#[test]'s.
- 'list' module: add examples for 'List', fix path of
'assert_pinned!' (so far unused macro rule).
- 'workqueue' module: remove 'HasWork::OFFSET'.
- 'page' module: add 'inline' attribute.
'macros' crate:
- 'module' macro: place 'cleanup_module()' in '.exit.text' section.
'pin-init' crate:
- Add 'Wrapper<T>' trait for creating pin-initializers for wrapper
structs with a structurally pinned value such as 'UnsafeCell<T>' or
'MaybeUninit<T>'.
- Add 'MaybeZeroable' derive macro to try to derive 'Zeroable', but
not error if not all fields implement it. This is needed to derive
'Zeroable' for all bindgen-generated structs.
- Add 'unsafe fn cast_[pin_]init()' functions to unsafely change the
initialized type of an initializer. These are utilized by the
'Wrapper<T>' implementations.
- Add support for visibility in 'Zeroable' derive macro.
- Add support for 'union's in 'Zeroable' derive macro.
- Upstream dev news: streamline CI, fix some bugs. Add new workflows
to check if the user-space version and the one in the kernel tree
have diverged. Use the issues tab [1] to track them, which should
help folks report and diagnose issues w.r.t. 'pin-init' better.
[1] https://github.com/rust-for-linux/pin-init/issues
Documentation:
- Testing: add docs on the new KUnit '#[test]' tests.
- Coding guidelines: explain that '///' vs. '//' applies to private
items too. Add section on C FFI types.
- Quick Start guide: update Ubuntu instructions and split them into
"25.04" and "24.04 LTS and older".
And a few other cleanups and improvements"

There are archs which have NMI but does not support this_cpu_* ops safely
in the nmi context but they support safe atomic ops in nmi context. For
such archs, let's add infra to use atomic ops for the memcg stats which
can be updated in nmi.
At the moment, the memcg stats which get updated in the objcg charging
path are MEMCG_KMEM, NR_SLAB_RECLAIMABLE_B & NR_SLAB_UNRECLAIMABLE_B.
Rather than adding support for all memcg stats to be nmi safe, let's just
add infra to make these three stats nmi safe which this patch is doing.

Patch series "memcg: nmi-safe kmem charging", v4.
Users can attached their BPF programs at arbitrary execution points in the
kernel and such BPF programs may run in nmi context. In addition, these
programs can trigger memcg charged kernel allocations in the nmi context.
However memcg charging infra for kernel memory is not equipped to handle
nmi context for all architectures.
This series removes the hurdles to enable kmem charging in the nmi context
for most of the archs. For archs without CONFIG_HAVE_NMI, this series is
a noop. For archs with NMI support and have
CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_NMI_SAFE_THIS_CPU_OPS, the previous work to make memcg
stats re-entrant is sufficient for allowing kmem charging in nmi context.
For archs with NMI support but without
CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_NMI_SAFE_THIS_CPU_OPS and with ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHG,
this series added infra to support kmem charging in nmi context. Lastly
those archs with NMI support but without
CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_NMI_SAFE_THIS_CPU_OPS and ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHG, kmem
charging in nmi context is not supported at all.
Mostly used archs have support for CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_NMI_SAFE_THIS_CPU_OPS
and this series should be almost a noop (other than making
memcg_rstat_updated nmi safe) for such archs.
This patch (of 5):
The memcg accounting and stats uses this_cpu* and atomic* ops. There are
archs which define CONFIG_HAVE_NMI but does not define
CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_NMI_SAFE_THIS_CPU_OPS and ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHG, so
memcg accounting for such archs in nmi context is not possible to support.
Let's just disable memcg accounting in nmi context for such archs.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- "Add folio_mk_pte()" from Matthew Wilcox 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.
- "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.
- "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.
- "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.
- "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.
- "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.
- "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.
- "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.
- "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.
- "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.
- "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.
- "Rust support for mm_struct, vm_area_struct, and mmap" from Alice
Ryhl adds plumbing to permit Rust access to core MM structures.
- "fix incorrectly disallowed anonymous VMA merges" from Lorenzo
Stoakes takes advantage of some VMA merging opportunities which we've
been missing for 15 years.
- "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.
- "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.
- "mm/gup: Minor fix, cleanup and improvements" from Baoquan He removes
a few unnecessary things which Baoquan noted when reading the code.
- ""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.
- "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.
- "mm/vmalloc.c: code cleanup and improvements" from Baoquan He
provides cleanups and small efficiency improvements which Baoquan
found via code inspection.
- "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.
- "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.
- "Use kmem_cache for memcg alloc" from Huan Yang creates a slab cache
for `struct mem_cgroup', yielding improved memory utilization.
- "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.
- "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.
- "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.
- "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.
- "JFS: Implement migrate_folio for jfs_metapage_aops" from Shivank
Garg addresses a warning which occurs during memory compaction when
using JFS.
- "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.
- "mm, swap: clean up swap cache mapping helper" from Kairui Song
provides code consolidation and cleanups related to the folio_index()
function.
- "mm/gup: Cleanup memfd_pin_folios()" from Vishal Moola does that.
- "memcg: Fix test_memcg_min/low test failures" from Waiman Long
addresses some bogus failures which are being reported by the
test_memcontrol selftest.
- "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.
- "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.
- "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.
- "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.
- "Let unmap_hugepage_range() and several related functions take folio
instead of page" from Fan Ni provides folio conversions in the

The KUnit `#[test]` support that landed recently is very basic and does
not map the `assert*!` macros into KUnit like the doctests do, so they
panic at the moment.
Thus implement the custom mapping in a similar way to doctests, reusing
the infrastructure there.
In Rust 1.88.0, the `file()` method in `Span` may be stable [1]. However,
it was changed recently (from `SourceFile`), so we need to do something
different in previous versions. Thus create a helper for it and use it
to get the path.
With this, a failing test suite like:
#[kunit_tests(my_test_suite)]

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
- Update compression and mtime descriptions in initramfs

- Update main netfs API document

Patch series "Use kmem_cache for memcg alloc", v3.
(willy tldr: "you've gone from allocating 8 objects per 32KiB to
allocating 13 objects per 32KiB, a 62% improvement in memory consumption"
[1])
The mem_cgroup_alloc function creates mem_cgroup struct and it's
associated structures including mem_cgroup_per_node. Through detailed
analysis on our test machine (Arm64, 16GB RAM, 6.6 kernel, 1 NUMA node,
memcgv2 with nokmem,nosocket,cgroup_disable=pressure), we can observe the
memory allocation for these structures using the following shell commands:
# Enable tracing
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/enable
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/tracing/tracing_on
cat /sys/kernel/tracing/trace_pipe | grep kmalloc | grep mem_cgroup
# Trigger allocation if cgroup subtree do not enable memcg
echo +memory > /sys/fs/cgroup/cgroup.subtree_control
Ftrace Output:
# mem_cgroup struct allocation
sh-6312 [000] ..... 58015.698365: kmalloc:
call_site=mem_cgroup_css_alloc+0xd8/0x5b4
ptr=000000003e4c3799 bytes_req=2312 bytes_alloc=4096
gfp_flags=GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_ZERO node=-1 accounted=false
# mem_cgroup_per_node allocation
sh-6312 [000] ..... 58015.698389: kmalloc:
call_site=mem_cgroup_css_alloc+0x1d8/0x5b4
ptr=00000000d798700c bytes_req=2896 bytes_alloc=4096
gfp_flags=GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_ZERO node=0 accounted=false
Key Observations:
1. Both structures use kmalloc with requested sizes between 2KB-4KB
2. Allocation alignment forces 4KB slab usage due to pre-defined sizes
(64B, 128B,..., 2KB, 4KB, 8KB)
3. Memory waste per memcg instance:
Base struct: 4096 - 2312 = 1784 bytes
Per-node struct: 4096 - 2896 = 1200 bytes
Total waste: 2984 bytes (1-node system)
NUMA scaling: (1200 + 8) * nr_node_ids bytes
So, it's a little waste.
This patchset introduces dedicated kmem_cache:
Patch2 - mem_cgroup kmem_cache - memcg_cachep
Patch3 - mem_cgroup_per_node kmem_cache - memcg_pn_cachep
The benefits of this change can be observed with the following tracing
commands:
# Enable tracing
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/tracing/events/kmem/kmem_cache_alloc/enable
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/tracing/tracing_on
cat /sys/kernel/tracing/trace_pipe | grep kmem_cache_alloc | grep mem_cgroup
# In another terminal:
echo +memory > /sys/fs/cgroup/cgroup.subtree_control
The output might now look like this:
# mem_cgroup struct allocation
sh-9827 [000] ..... 289.513598: kmem_cache_alloc:
call_site=mem_cgroup_css_alloc+0xbc/0x5d4 ptr=00000000695c1806
bytes_req=2312 bytes_alloc=2368 gfp_flags=GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_ZERO node=-1
accounted=false
# mem_cgroup_per_node allocation
sh-9827 [000] ..... 289.513602: kmem_cache_alloc:
call_site=mem_cgroup_css_alloc+0x1b8/0x5d4 ptr=000000002989e63a
bytes_req=2896 bytes_alloc=2944 gfp_flags=GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_ZERO node=0
accounted=false
This indicates that the `mem_cgroup` struct now requests 2312 bytes and is
allocated 2368 bytes, while `mem_cgroup_per_node` requests 2896 bytes and
is allocated 2944 bytes. The slight increase in allocated size is due to
`SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN` in the `kmem_cache`.
Without `SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN`, the allocation might appear as:
# mem_cgroup struct allocation
sh-9269 [003] ..... 80.396366: kmem_cache_alloc:
call_site=mem_cgroup_css_alloc+0xbc/0x5d4 ptr=000000005b12b475
bytes_req=2312 bytes_alloc=2312 gfp_flags=GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_ZERO node=-1
accounted=false
# mem_cgroup_per_node allocation
sh-9269 [003] ..... 80.396411: kmem_cache_alloc:
call_site=mem_cgroup_css_alloc+0x1b8/0x5d4 ptr=00000000f347adc6
bytes_req=2896 bytes_alloc=2896 gfp_flags=GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_ZERO node=0
accounted=false
While the `bytes_alloc` now matches the `bytes_req`, this patchset
defaults to using `SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN` as it is generally considered more
beneficial for performance. Please let me know if there are any issues or
if I've misunderstood anything.
This patchset also move mem_cgroup_init ahead of cgroup_init() due to
cgroup_init() will allocate root_mem_cgroup, but each initcall invoke
after cgroup_init, so if each kmem_cache do not prepare, we need testing
NULL before use it.
This patch (of 3):
When cgroup_init() creates root_mem_cgroup through css_alloc callback,
some critical resources might not be fully initialized, forcing later
operations to perform conditional checks for resource availability.
This patch move mem_cgroup_init() to address the init order, it invoke
before cgroup_init, so, compare to subsys_initcall, it can use to prepare
some key resources before root_mem_cgroup alloc.

When initcall_debug is specified on the command line, the start and return
point for each initcall is printed. However, no information on the
initcall level is reported.
Add to the initcall_debug infrastructure an additional print that informs
when a new initcall level is entered. This is particularly useful when
debugging dependency chains and/or working on boot time reduction.

Simplifies CONFIG_CC_HAS_COUNTED_BY by removing the build test and
relying solely on gcc/clang version numbering (GCC_VERSION >= 150100 and
CLANG_VERSION >= 190103).
The build test was used to allow unreleased gcc 15.0 builds to use the
__counted_by attribute. Now that gcc 15.1.0 has been released, this is
not needed anymore. Note: This will disable __counted_by on unreleased
gcc 15.0 builds.
clang version support for __counted_by remains unchanged.

Starting with Rust 1.88.0 (expected 2025-06-26) [1][2], `rustc` may
introduce a new lint that catches unnecessary transmutes, e.g.:
error: unnecessary transmute
--> rust/uapi/uapi_generated.rs:23242:18
|
23242 | unsafe { ::core::mem::transmute(self._bitfield_1.get(0usize, 1u8) as u8) }
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ help: replace this with: `(self._bitfield_1.get(0usize, 1u8) as u8 == 1)`
|
= note: `-D unnecessary-transmutes` implied by `-D warnings`
= help: to override `-D warnings` add `#[allow(unnecessary_transmutes)]`
There are a lot of them (at least 300), but luckily they are all in
`bindgen`-generated code.
Thus clean all up by allowing it there.
Since unknown lints trigger a lint itself in older compilers, do it
conditionally so that we can keep the `unknown_lints` lint enabled.

Extend the futex2 interface to be aware of mempolicy.
When FUTEX2_MPOL is specified and there is a MPOL_PREFERRED or
home_node specified covering the futex address, use that hash-map.
Notably, in this case the futex will go to the global node hashtable,
even if it is a PRIVATE futex.
When FUTEX2_NUMA|FUTEX2_MPOL is specified and the user specified node
value is FUTEX_NO_NODE, the MPOL lookup (as described above) will be
tried first before reverting to setting node to the local node.

The futex hash is system wide and shared by all tasks. Each slot
is hashed based on futex address and the VMA of the thread. Due to
randomized VMAs (and memory allocations) the same logical lock (pointer)
can end up in a different hash bucket on each invocation of the
application. This in turn means that different applications may share a
hash bucket on the first invocation but not on the second and it is not
always clear which applications will be involved. This can result in
high latency's to acquire the futex_hash_bucket::lock especially if the
lock owner is limited to a CPU and can not be effectively PI boosted.
Introduce basic infrastructure for process local hash which is shared by
all threads of process. This hash will only be used for a
PROCESS_PRIVATE FUTEX operation.
The hashmap can be allocated via:
prctl(PR_FUTEX_HASH, PR_FUTEX_HASH_SET_SLOTS, num);
A `num' of 0 means that the global hash is used instead of a private
hash.
Other values for `num' specify the number of slots for the hash and the
number must be power of two, starting with two.
The prctl() returns zero on success. This function can only be used
before a thread is created.
The current status for the private hash can be queried via:
num = prctl(PR_FUTEX_HASH, PR_FUTEX_HASH_GET_SLOTS);
which return the current number of slots. The value 0 means that the
global hash is used. Values greater than 0 indicate the number of slots
that are used. A negative number indicates an error.
For optimisation, for the private hash jhash2() uses only two arguments

the Kconfig entry we have right now:
config CPU_ISOLATION
bool "CPU isolation"
depends on SMP || COMPILE_TEST

Patch series "mseal system mappings", v9.
As discussed during mseal() upstream process [1], mseal() protects the
VMAs of a given virtual memory range against modifications, such as the
read/write (RW) and no-execute (NX) bits. For complete descriptions of
memory sealing, please see mseal.rst [2].
The mseal() is useful to mitigate memory corruption issues where a
corrupted pointer is passed to a memory management system. For example,
such an attacker primitive can break control-flow integrity guarantees
since read-only memory that is supposed to be trusted can become writable
or .text pages can get remapped.
The system mappings are readonly only, memory sealing can protect them
from ever changing to writable or unmmap/remapped as different attributes.
System mappings such as vdso, vvar, vvar_vclock, vectors (arm
compat-mode), sigpage (arm compat-mode), are created by the kernel during
program initialization, and could be sealed after creation.
Unlike the aforementioned mappings, the uprobe mapping is not established
during program startup. However, its lifetime is the same as the
process's lifetime [3]. It could be sealed from creation.
The vsyscall on x86-64 uses a special address (0xffffffffff600000), which
is outside the mm managed range. This means mprotect, munmap, and mremap
won't work on the vsyscall. Since sealing doesn't enhance the vsyscall's
security, it is skipped in this patch. If we ever seal the vsyscall, it
is probably only for decorative purpose, i.e. showing the 'sl' flag in
the /proc/pid/smaps. For this patch, it is ignored.
It is important to note that the CHECKPOINT_RESTORE feature (CRIU) may
alter the system mappings during restore operations. UML(User Mode Linux)
and gVisor, rr are also known to change the vdso/vvar mappings.
Consequently, this feature cannot be universally enabled across all
systems. As such, CONFIG_MSEAL_SYSTEM_MAPPINGS is disabled by default.
To support mseal of system mappings, architectures must define
CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_MSEAL_SYSTEM_MAPPINGS and update their special
mappings calls to pass mseal flag. Additionally, architectures must
confirm they do not unmap/remap system mappings during the process
lifetime. The existence of this flag for an architecture implies that it
does not require the remapping of thest system mappings during process
lifetime, so sealing these mappings is safe from a kernel perspective.
This version covers x86-64 and arm64 archiecture as minimum viable feature.
While no specific CPU hardware features are required for enable this
feature on an archiecture, memory sealing requires a 64-bit kernel. Other
architectures can choose whether or not to adopt this feature. Currently,
I'm not aware of any instances in the kernel code that actively
munmap/mremap a system mapping without a request from userspace. The PPC
does call munmap when _install_special_mapping fails for vdso; however,
it's uncertain if this will ever fail for PPC - this needs to be
investigated by PPC in the future [4]. The UML kernel can add this
support when KUnit tests require it [5].
In this version, we've improved the handling of system mapping sealing
from previous versions, instead of modifying the _install_special_mapping
function itself, which would affect all architectures, we now call
_install_special_mapping with a sealing flag only within the specific
architecture that requires it. This targeted approach offers two key
advantages: 1) It limits the code change's impact to the necessary
architectures, and 2) It aligns with the software architecture by keeping
the core memory management within the mm layer, while delegating the
decision of sealing system mappings to the individual architecture, which
is particularly relevant since 32-bit architectures never require sealing.
Prior to this patch series, we explored sealing special mappings from
userspace using glibc's dynamic linker. This approach revealed several
issues:
- The PT_LOAD header may report an incorrect length for vdso, (smaller
than its actual size). The dynamic linker, which relies on PT_LOAD
information to determine mapping size, would then split and partially
seal the vdso mapping. Since each architecture has its own vdso/vvar
code, fixing this in the kernel would require going through each
archiecture. Our initial goal was to enable sealing readonly mappings,
e.g. .text, across all architectures, sealing vdso from kernel since
creation appears to be simpler than sealing vdso at glibc.
- The [vvar] mapping header only contains address information, not
length information. Similar issues might exist for other special
mappings.
- Mappings like uprobe are not covered by the dynamic linker, and there
is no effective solution for them.
This feature's security enhancements will benefit ChromeOS, Android, and
other high security systems.
Testing:
This feature was tested on ChromeOS and Android for both x86-64 and ARM64.
- Enable sealing and verify vdso/vvar, sigpage, vector are sealed properly,
i.e. "sl" shown in the smaps for those mappings, and mremap is blocked.
- Passing various automation tests (e.g. pre-checkin) on ChromeOS and
Android to ensure the sealing doesn't affect the functionality of
Chromebook and Android phone.
I also tested the feature on Ubuntu on x86-64:
- With config disabled, vdso/vvar is not sealed,
- with config enabled, vdso/vvar is sealed, and booting up Ubuntu is OK,
normal operations such as browsing the web, open/edit doc are OK.

ld.lld prior to 21.0.0 does not support using the KEEP keyword within an
overlay description, which may be needed to avoid discarding necessary
sections within an overlay with '--gc-sections', which can be enabled
for the kernel via CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION.
Disallow CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION without support for KEEP
within OVERLAY and introduce a macro, OVERLAY_KEEP, that can be used to
conditionally add KEEP when it is properly supported to avoid breaking
old versions of ld.lld.

- Add broken-timing possibility to stallwarn.rst
- Improve discussion of this_cpu_ptr(), add raw_cpu_ptr()
- Document self-propagating callbacks

- Add CONFIG_RCU_LAZY delays to call_rcu() kernel-doc header
- Clarify RCU_LAZY and RCU_LAZY_DEFAULT_OFF help text
- Remove references to old grace-period-wait primitives
srcu:
- Introduce srcu_read_{un,}lock_fast(), which is similar to
srcu_read_{un,}lock_lite(): avoid smp_mb()s in lock and unlock
at the cost of calling synchronize_rcu() in synchronize_srcu()
Moreover, by returning the percpu offset of the counter at
srcu_read_lock_fast() time, srcu_read_unlock_fast() can avoid
extra pointer dereferencing, which makes it faster than
srcu_read_{un,}lock_lite()

GCC has expanded support of the "nonstring" attribute so that it can be
applied to arrays of character arrays[1], which is needed to identify
correct static initialization of those kinds of objects. Since this was
not supported prior to GCC 15, we need to distinguish the usage of Linux's
existing __nonstring macro for the attribute for non-multi-dimensional
char arrays. Until GCC 15 is the minimum version, use __nonstring_array to
mark arrays of non-string character arrays. (Regular non-string character
arrays can continue to use __nonstring.) Once GCC 15 is the minimum
compiler version we can replace all uses of __nonstring_array with just
__nonstring and remove this macro.
This allows for changes like this:
-static const char table_sigs[][ACPI_NAMESEG_SIZE] __initconst = {
+static const char table_sigs[][ACPI_NAMESEG_SIZE] __nonstring_array __initconst = {
ACPI_SIG_BERT, ACPI_SIG_BGRT, ACPI_SIG_CPEP, ACPI_SIG_ECDT,
Which will silence the coming -Wunterminated-string-initialization
warnings in GCC 15:

The kernel cannot currently self-parse BTF containing Rust debug
information. pahole uses the language of the CU to determine whether to
filter out debug information when generating the BTF. When LTO is
enabled, Rust code can cross CU boundaries, resulting in Rust debug
information in CUs labeled as C. This results in a system which cannot
parse its own BTF.

Covered in Documentation/driver-api/early-userspace/buffer-format.rst ,
initramfs archives can carry an optional "TRAILER!!!" entry which serves
as a boundary for collecting and associating hardlinks with matching
inode and major / minor device numbers.
Although optional, if hardlinks are found in an archive without a
subsequent "TRAILER!!!" entry then the hardlink state hash table is
leaked, e.g. unfixed kernel, with initramfs_test.c hunk applied only:
unreferenced object 0xffff9405408cc000 (size 8192):
comm "kunit_try_catch", pid 53, jiffies 4294892519

[<00000000f848ad1a>] ret_from_fork_asm+0x1a/0x30
Fix this by calling free_hash() after initramfs buffer processing in
unpack_to_rootfs(). An extra hardlink_seen global is added as an
optimization to avoid walking the 32 entry hash array unnecessarily.
The expectation is that a "TRAILER!!!" entry will normally be present,
and initramfs hardlinks are uncommon.
There is one user facing side-effect of this fix: hardlinks can
currently be associated across built-in and external initramfs archives,
*if* the built-in initramfs archive lacks a "TRAILER!!!" terminator. I'd
consider this cross-archive association broken, but perhaps it's used.

header_buf, symlink_buf and name_buf all share the same lifecycle so
needn't be allocated / freed separately. This change leads to a minor
reduction in .text size:
before:
text data bss dec hex filename
7914 1110 8 9032 2348 init/initramfs.o
after:
text data bss dec hex filename
7854 1110 8 8972 230c init/initramfs.o
A previous iteration of this patch reused a single buffer instead of
three, given that buffer use is state-sequential (GotHeader, GotName,
GotSymlink). However, the slight decrease in heap use during early boot
isn't really worth the extra review complexity.

The timer and hrtimer softirq processing has moved to dedicated threads
for kernels built with CONFIG_IRQ_FORCED_THREADING=y. This results in
timers not expiring until later in early boot, which in turn causes the
RCU Tasks self-tests to hang in kernels built with CONFIG_PROVE_RCU=y,
which further causes the entire kernel to hang. One fix would be to
make timers work during this time, but there are no known users of RCU
Tasks grace periods during that time, so no justification for the added
complexity. Not yet, anyway.
This commit therefore moves the call to rcu_init_tasks_generic() from
kernel_init_freeable() to a core_initcall(). This works because the
timer and hrtimer kthreads are created at early_initcall() time.

The percpu section is currently linked at absolute address 0, because
older compilers hard-coded the stack protector canary value at a fixed
offset from the start of the GS segment. Now that the canary is a
normal percpu variable, the percpu section does not need to be linked
at a specific address.
x86-64 will now calculate the percpu offsets as the delta between the
initial percpu address and the dynamically allocated memory, like other
architectures. Note that GSBASE is limited to the canonical address
width (48 or 57 bits, sign-extended). As long as the kernel text,
modules, and the dynamically allocated percpu memory are all in the
negative address space, the delta will not overflow this limit.

Add the const qualifier to all the ctl_tables in the tree except for
watchdog_hardlockup_sysctl, memory_allocation_profiling_sysctls,
loadpin_sysctl_table and the ones calling register_net_sysctl (./net,
drivers/inifiniband dirs). These are special cases as they use a
registration function with a non-const qualified ctl_table argument or
modify the arrays before passing them on to the registration function.
Constifying ctl_table structs will prevent the modification of
proc_handler function pointers as the arrays would reside in .rodata.
This is made possible after commit 78eb4ea25cd5 ("sysctl: treewide:
constify the ctl_table argument of proc_handlers") constified all the
proc_handlers.
