2026-02-23init/Kconfig: Adjust fixed clang version for __builtin_counted_by_refNathan Chancellor-1/+1
Commit d39a1d7486d9 ("compiler_types: Disable __builtin_counted_by_ref for Clang") used 22.0.0 as the fixed version for a compiler crash but the fix was only merged in main (23.0.0) and release/22.x (22.1.0). With the current fixed version number, prerelease or Android LLVM 22 builds will still be able to hit the compiler crash when building the kernel. This can be particularly disruptive when bisecting LLVM. Use 21.1.0 as the fixed version number to ensure the fix for this crash is always present.

2026-02-21compiler_types: Disable __builtin_counted_by_ref for ClangKees Cook-0/+5
Unfortunately, there is a corner case of __builtin_counted_by_ref() usage that crashes[1] Clang since support was introduced in Clang 19. Disable it prior to Clang 22.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/frederic/linux-dynticks Pull kthread updates from Frederic Weisbecker: "The kthread code provides an infrastructure which manages the preferred affinity of unbound kthreads (node or custom cpumask) against housekeeping (CPU isolation) constraints and CPU hotplug events. One crucial missing piece is the handling of cpuset: when an isolated partition is created, deleted, or its CPUs updated, all the unbound kthreads in the top cpuset become indifferently affine to _all_ the non-isolated CPUs, possibly breaking their preferred affinity along the way. Solve this with performing the kthreads affinity update from cpuset to the kthreads consolidated relevant code instead so that preferred affinities are honoured and applied against the updated cpuset isolated partitions. The dispatch of the new isolated cpumasks to timers, workqueues and kthreads is performed by housekeeping, as per the nice Tejun's suggestion. As a welcome side effect, HK_TYPE_DOMAIN then integrates both the set from boot defined domain isolation (through isolcpus=) and cpuset isolated partitions.

2026-02-03cpuset: Propagate cpuset isolation update to workqueue through housekeepingFrederic Weisbecker-0/+1
Until now, cpuset would propagate isolated partition changes to workqueues so that unbound workers get properly reaffined. Since housekeeping now centralizes, synchronize and propagates isolation cpumask changes, perform the work from that subsystem for consolidation and consistency purposes. For simplification purpose, the target function is adapted to take the new housekeeping mask instead of the isolated mask.

Introduce __counted_by_ptr(), which works like __counted_by(), but for pointer struct members. struct foo { int a, b, c; char *buffer __counted_by_ptr(bytes); short nr_bars; struct bar *bars __counted_by_ptr(nr_bars); size_t bytes; }; Because "counted_by" can only be applied to pointer members in very recent compiler versions, its application ends up needing to be distinct from flexibe array "counted_by" annotations, hence a separate macro.

2026-01-16kbuild: uapi: drop dependency on CC_CAN_LINKThomas Weißschuh-1/+1
The header tests try to compile each header. Some UAPI headers depend on libc headers so they need a full userspace toolchain to build. This dependency is expressed in kconfig as a dependency on CC_CAN_LINK. Many kernel builds do not satisfy CC_CAN_LINK as they only use a minimal kernel (cross-) compiler. In those configurations the UAPI headers are not tested at all. However most UAPI headers do not even depend on any libc headers, and such dependencies are undesired in any case. Also the static analysis performed by headers_check.pl does not need CC_CAN_LINK. Drop the hard dependency on CC_CAN_LINK and instead skip the affected compilation step for exactly those headers which require libc.

2025-12-19kbuild: Sync kconfig when PAHOLE_VERSION changesIhor Solodrai-1/+1
This patch implements kconfig re-sync when the pahole version changes between builds, similar to how it happens for compiler version change via CC_VERSION_TEXT. Define PAHOLE_VERSION in the top-level Makefile and export it for config builds. Set CONFIG_PAHOLE_VERSION default to the exported variable. Kconfig records the PAHOLE_VERSION value in include/config/auto.conf.cmd [1]. The Makefile includes auto.conf.cmd, so if PAHOLE_VERSION changes between builds, make detects a dependency change and triggers syncconfig to update the kconfig [2]. For external module builds, add a warning message in the prepare target, similar to the existing compiler version mismatch warning.

2025-12-17perf: Add APIs to create/release mediated guest vPMUsKan Liang-0/+4
Currently, exposing PMU capabilities to a KVM guest is done by emulating guest PMCs via host perf events, i.e. by having KVM be "just" another user of perf. As a result, the guest and host are effectively competing for resources, and emulating guest accesses to vPMU resources requires expensive actions (expensive relative to the native instruction). The overhead and resource competition results in degraded guest performance and ultimately very poor vPMU accuracy. To address the issues with the perf-emulated vPMU, introduce a "mediated vPMU", where the data plane (PMCs and enable/disable knobs) is exposed directly to the guest, but the control plane (event selectors and access to fixed counters) is managed by KVM (via MSR interceptions). To allow host perf usage of the PMU to (partially) co-exist with KVM/guest usage of the PMU, KVM and perf will coordinate to a world switch between host perf context and guest vPMU context near VM-Enter/VM-Exit. Add two exported APIs, perf_{create,release}_mediated_pmu(), to allow KVM to create and release a mediated PMU instance (per VM). Because host perf context will be deactivated while the guest is running, mediated PMU usage will be mutually exclusive with perf analysis of the guest, i.e. perf events that do NOT exclude the guest will not behave as expected. To avoid silent failure of !exclude_guest perf events, disallow creating a mediated PMU if there are active !exclude_guest events, and on the perf side, disallowing creating new !exclude_guest perf events while there is at least one active mediated PMU. Exempt PMU resources that do not support mediated PMU usage, i.e. that are outside the scope/view of KVM's vPMU and will not be swapped out while the guest is running. Guard mediated PMU with a new kconfig to help readers identify code paths that are unique to mediated PMU support, and to allow for adding arch- specific hooks without stubs. KVM x86 is expected to be the only KVM architecture to support a mediated PMU in the near future (e.g. arm64 is trending toward a partitioned PMU implementation), and KVM x86 will select PERF_GUEST_MEDIATED_PMU unconditionally, i.e. won't need stubs. Immediately select PERF_GUEST_MEDIATED_PMU when KVM x86 is enabled so that all paths are compile tested. Full KVM support is on its way...

2025-11-14kbuild: allow architectures to override CC_CAN_LINKThomas Weißschuh-0/+4
The generic test for CC_CAN_LINK assumes that all architectures use -m32 and -m64 to switch between 32-bit and 64-bit compilation. This is overly simplistic. Architectures may use other flags (-mabi, -m31, etc.) or may also require byte order handling (-mlittle-endian, -EL). Expressing all of the different possibilities will be very complicated and brittle. Instead allow architectures to supply their own logic which will be easy to understand and evolve. Both the boolean ARCH_HAS_CC_CAN_LINK and the string ARCH_USERFLAGS need to be implemented as kconfig does not allow the reuse of string options.

2025-11-14rust: enable slice_flatten feature and provide it through an extension traitAlexandre Courbot-0/+3
In Rust 1.80, the previously unstable `slice::flatten` family of methods have been stabilized and renamed to `slice::as_flattened`. This creates an issue as we want to use `as_flattened`, but need to support the MSRV (which at the moment is Rust 1.78) where it is named `flatten`. Solve this by enabling the `slice_flatten` feature, and providing an `as_flattened` implementation through an extension trait for compiler versions where it is not available. The trait is then exported from the prelude, making the `as_flattened` family of methods transparently available for all supported compiler versions. This extension trait can be removed once the MSRV passes 1.80.

2025-11-12init/main.c: wrap long kernel cmdline when printing to logsDouglas Anderson-0/+18
The kernel cmdline length is allowed to be longer than what printk can handle. When this happens the cmdline that's printed to the kernel ring buffer at bootup is cutoff and some kernel cmdline options are "hidden" from the logs. This undercuts the usefulness of the log message. Specifically, grepping for COMMAND_LINE_SIZE shows that 2048 is common and some architectures even define it as 4096. s390 allows a CONFIG-based maximum up to 1MB (though it's not expected that anyone will go over the default max of 4096 [1]). The maximum message pr_notice() seems to be able to handle (based on experiment) is 1021 characters. This appears to be based on the current value of PRINTKRB_RECORD_MAX as 1024 and the fact that pr_notice() spends 2 characters on the loglevel prefix and we have a '\n' at the end. While it would be possible to increase the limits of printk() (and therefore pr_notice()) somewhat, it doesn't appear possible to increase it enough to fully include a 2048-character cmdline without breaking userspace. Specifically on at least two tested userspaces (ChromeOS plus the Debian-based distro I'm typing this message on) the `dmesg` tool reads lines from `/dev/kmsg` in 2047-byte chunks. As per `Documentation/ABI/testing/dev-kmsg`: Every read() from the opened device node receives one record of the kernel's printk buffer. ... Messages in the record ring buffer get overwritten as whole, there are never partial messages received by read(). We simply can't fit a 2048-byte cmdline plus the "Kernel command line:" prefix plus info about time/log_level/etc in a 2047-byte read. The above means that if we want to avoid the truncation we need to do some type of wrapping of the cmdline when printing. Add wrapping to the printout of the kernel command line. By default, the wrapping is set to 1021 characters to avoid breaking anyone, but allow wrapping to be set lower by a Kconfig knob "CONFIG_CMDLINE_LOG_WRAP_IDEAL_LEN". Any tools that are correctly parsing the cmdline today (because it is less than 1021 characters) will see no difference in their behavior. The format of wrapped output is designed to be matched by anyone using "grep" to search for the cmdline and also to be easy for tools to handle. Anyone who is sure their tools (if any) handle the wrapped format can choose a lower wrapping value and have prettier output. Setting CONFIG_CMDLINE_LOG_WRAP_IDEAL_LEN to 0 fully disables the wrapping logic. This means that long command lines will be truncated again, but this config could be set if command lines are expected to be long and userspace is known not to handle parsing logs with the wrapping. Wrapping is based on spaces, ignoring quotes. All lines are prefixed with "Kernel command line: " and lines that are not the last line have a " \" suffix added to them. The prefix and suffix count towards the line length for wrapping purposes. The ideal length will be exceeded if no appropriate place to wrap is found. The wrapping function added here is fairly generic and could be made a library function (somewhat like print_hex_dump()) if it's needed elsewhere in the kernel. However, having printk() directly incorporate this wrapping would be unlikely to be a good idea since it would break printouts into more than one record without any obvious common line prefix to tie lines together. It would also be extra overhead when, in general, kernel log message should simply be kept smaller than 1021 bytes. For some discussion on this topic, see responses to the v1 posting of this patch [2].

Now that all bits and pieces are in place, hook the RSEQ handling fast path function into exit_to_user_mode_prepare() after the TIF work bits have been handled. If case of fast path failure, TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME has been raised and the caller needs to take another turn through the TIF handling slow path. This only works for architectures which use the generic entry code. Architectures who still have their own incomplete hacks are not supported and won't be. This results in the following improvements: Kernel build Before After Reduction exit to user 80692981 80514451 signal checks: 32581 121 99% slowpath runs: 1201408 1.49% 198 0.00% 100% fastpath runs: 675941 0.84% N/A id updates: 1233989 1.53% 50541 0.06% 96% cs checks: 1125366 1.39% 0 0.00% 100% cs cleared: 1125366 100% 0 100% cs fixup: 0 0% 0 RSEQ selftests Before After Reduction exit to user: 386281778 387373750 signal checks: 35661203 0 100% slowpath runs: 140542396 36.38% 100 0.00% 100% fastpath runs: 9509789 2.51% N/A id updates: 176203599 45.62% 9087994 2.35% 95% cs checks: 175587856 45.46% 4728394 1.22% 98% cs cleared: 172359544 98.16% 1319307 27.90% 99% cs fixup: 3228312 1.84% 3409087 72.10% The 'cs cleared' and 'cs fixup' percentages are not relative to the exit to user invocations, they are relative to the actual 'cs check' invocations. While some of this could have been avoided in the original code, like the obvious clearing of CS when it's already clear, the main problem of going through TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME cannot be solved. In some workloads the RSEQ notify handler is invoked more than once before going out to user space. Doing this once when everything has stabilized is the only solution to avoid this. The initial attempt to completely decouple it from the TIF work turned out to be suboptimal for workloads, which do a lot of quick and short system calls. Even if the fast path decision is only 4 instructions (including a conditional branch), this adds up quickly and becomes measurable when the rate for actually having to handle rseq is in the low single digit percentage range of user/kernel transitions.

This flag prevents the SIGPIPE signal from being raised when writing on disconnected pipes or sockets. The flag is handled directly by the pipe filesystem and converted to the existing MSG_NOSIGNAL flag for sockets - Allow to pass pid namespace as procfs mount option Ever since the introduction of pid namespaces, procfs has had very implicit behaviour surrounding them (the pidns used by a procfs mount is auto-selected based on the mounting process's active pidns, and the pidns itself is basically hidden once the mount has been constructed) This implicit behaviour has historically meant that userspace was required to do some special dances in order to configure the pidns of a procfs mount as desired. Examples include: * In order to bypass the mnt_too_revealing() check, Kubernetes creates a procfs mount from an empty pidns so that user namespaced containers can be nested (without this, the nested containers would fail to mount procfs) But this requires forking off a helper process because you cannot just one-shot this using mount(2) * Container runtimes in general need to fork into a container before configuring its mounts, which can lead to security issues in the case of shared-pidns containers (a privileged process in the pidns can interact with your container runtime process) While SUID_DUMP_DISABLE and user namespaces make this less of an issue, the strict need for this due to a minor uAPI wart is kind of unfortunate Things would be much easier if there was a way for userspace to just specify the pidns they want. So this pull request contains changes to implement a new "pidns" argument which can be set using fsconfig(2): fsconfig(procfd, FSCONFIG_SET_FD, "pidns", NULL, nsfd); fsconfig(procfd, FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "pidns", "/proc/self/ns/pid", 0); or classic mount(2) / mount(8): // mount -t proc -o pidns=/proc/self/ns/pid proc /tmp/proc mount("proc", "/tmp/proc", "proc", MS_..., "pidns=/proc/self/ns/pid"); Cleanups: - Remove the last references to EXPORT_OP_ASYNC_LOCK - Make file_remove_privs_flags() static - Remove redundant __GFP_NOWARN when GFP_NOWAIT is used - Use try_cmpxchg() in start_dir_add() - Use try_cmpxchg() in sb_init_done_wq() - Replace offsetof() with struct_size() in ioctl_file_dedupe_range() - Remove vfs_ioctl() export - Replace rwlock() with spinlock in epoll code as rwlock causes priority inversion on preempt rt kernels - Make ns_entries in fs/proc/namespaces const - Use a switch() statement() in init_special_inode() just like we do in may_open() - Use struct_size() in dir_add() in the initramfs code - Use str_plural() in rd_load_image() - Replace strcpy() with strscpy() in find_link() - Rename generic_delete_inode() to inode_just_drop() and generic_drop_inode() to inode_generic_drop() - Remove unused arguments from fcntl_{g,s}et_rw_hint() Fixes: - Document @name parameter for name_contains_dotdot() helper - Fix spelling mistake - Always return zero from replace_fd() instead of the file descriptor number - Limit the size for copy_file_range() in compat mode to prevent a signed overflow - Fix debugfs mount options not being applied - Verify the inode mode when loading it from disk in minixfs - Verify the inode mode when loading it from disk in cramfs - Don't trigger automounts with RESOLVE_NO_XDEV If openat2() was called with RESOLVE_NO_XDEV it didn't traverse through automounts, but could still trigger them - Add FL_RECLAIM flag to show_fl_flags() macro so it appears in tracepoints - Fix unused variable warning in rd_load_image() on s390 - Make INITRAMFS_PRESERVE_MTIME depend on BLK_DEV_INITRD - Use ns_capable_noaudit() when determining net sysctl permissions - Don't call path_put() under namespace semaphore in listmount() and statmount()" * tag 'vfs-6.18-rc1.misc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs: (38 commits) fcntl: trim arguments listmount: don't call path_put() under namespace semaphore statmount: don't call path_put() under namespace semaphore pid: use ns_capable_noaudit() when determining net sysctl permissions fs: rename generic_delete_inode() and generic_drop_inode() init: INITRAMFS_PRESERVE_MTIME should depend on BLK_DEV_INITRD initramfs: Replace strcpy() with strscpy() in find_link() initrd: Use str_plural() in rd_load_image() initramfs: Use struct_size() helper to improve dir_add() initrd: Fix unused variable warning in rd_load_image() on s390 fs: use the switch statement in init_special_inode() fs/proc/namespaces: make ns_entries const filelock: add FL_RECLAIM to show_fl_flags() macro eventpoll: Replace rwlock with spinlock selftests/proc: add tests for new pidns APIs procfs: add "pidns" mount option pidns: move is-ancestor logic to helper openat2: don't trigger automounts with RESOLVE_NO_XDEV namei: move cross-device check to __traverse_mounts namei: remove LOOKUP_NO_XDEV check from handle_mounts ...
2025-09-29Fix CC_HAS_ASM_GOTO_OUTPUT on non-x86 architecturesLinus Torvalds-1/+1
There's a silly problem with the CC_HAS_ASM_GOTO_OUTPUT test: even with a working compiler it will fail on some architectures simply because it uses the mnemonic "jmp" for testing the inline asm. And as reported by Geert, not all architectures use that mnemonic, so the test fails spuriously on such platforms (including arm and riscv, but also several other architectures). This issue avoided any obvious test failures because the build still works thanks to falling back on the old non-asm-goto code, which just generates worse code. Just use an empty asm statement instead.

2025-09-24kbuild: Disable CC_HAS_ASM_GOTO_OUTPUT on clang < 17Thomas Gleixner-0/+3
clang < 17 fails to use scope local labels with CONFIG_CC_HAS_ASM_GOTO_OUTPUT=y: { __label__ local_lbl; ... unsafe_get_user(uval, uaddr, local_lbl); ... return 0; local_lbl: return -EFAULT; } when two such scopes exist in the same function: error: cannot jump from this asm goto statement to one of its possible targets There are other failure scenarios. Shuffling code around slightly makes it worse and fail even with one instance. That issue prevents using local labels for a cleanup based user access mechanism. After failed attempts to provide a simple enough test case for the 'depends on' test in Kconfig, the initial cure was to mark ASM goto broken on clang versions < 17 to get this road block out of the way. But Nathan pointed out that this is a known clang issue and indeed affects clang < version 17 in combination with cleanup(). It's not even required to use local labels for that. The clang issue tracker has a small enough test case, which can be used as a test in the 'depends on' section of CC_HAS_ASM_GOTO_OUTPUT: void bar(void **); void* baz(void); int foo (void) { { asm goto("jmp %l0"::::l0); return 0; l0: return 1; } void *x __attribute__((cleanup(bar))) = baz(); { asm goto("jmp %l0"::::l1); return 42; l1: return 0xff; } } Add another dependency to config CC_HAS_ASM_GOTO_OUTPUT for it and use the clang issue tracker test case for detection by condensing it to obfuscated C-code contest format. This reliably catches the problem on clang < 17 and did not show any issues on the non broken GCC versions. That test might be sufficient to catch all issues and therefore could replace the existing test, but keeping that around does no harm either.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm 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.
