coverage, optimize damon_commit_target_regions(), and clean up
recently added sysfs interface code for better readability

- "mm/vmpressure: reduce CPU, memory and code overhead on cgroup v2"
(Usama Arif)

Optimize vmpressure() by skipping unnecessary work on cgroup v2 for
userspace event notifications and refactor v1-only eventfd handling
into mm/memcontrol-v1.c to reduce memory overhead and code complexity

- "selftests/mm: refactor pkey helpers and fix mmap error handling"

checks for mmap() calls across the tests

- "mm/damon: optimize out nr_accesses_bp" (SJ Park)

Replace the error-prone, continuously updated nr_accesses_bp field in
damon_region with an on-demand moving sum function, reducing
structure memory overhead and avoiding state corruption bugs

- "Open HugeTLB allocation routine for more generic use" (Ackerley Tng)

Decouple HugeTLB folio allocation from VMA dependencies by
introducing hugetlb_alloc_folio(), enabling subsystems like
guest_memfd to allocate HugeTLB folios without standard VMA
reservations or pseudo-VMAs

- "mm/damon: provide pseudo moving sum probe_hits" (SJ Park)

Integrate DAMON's probe_hits attribute counter into the pseudo moving
sum infrastructure, enabling real-time, online monitoring without
waiting for full aggregation intervals

- "mm: Some cleanups for page allocator APIs" (Brendan Jackman)

Simplify and refactor the page allocator entry points and flags by
unifying allocation paths, adding internal alloc_flags arguments, and
eliminating redundant __ prefixed alloc_pages variants.

- "Fix incorrect access of hugetlb pte entries" (Dev Jain)

Enforce the consistent use of huge_ptep_get() instead of ptep_get()
for HugeTLB entries and fixes an unaligned address issue in arm64's
huge_ptep_get() implementation

- "mm/damon: validate all parameters in the core" (SJ Park)

Consolidate parameter validation into the DAMON core specifically
within damon_start() and damon_commit_ctx() to centralize error
checking, eliminate caller-side redundant checks and to improve
maintenance efficiency

- "tools/mm/page_owner_sort: fix filtering and cleanup issues" (Yichong
Chen)

Rename is_need() to filter_record() for clearer return semantics, fix
per-record allocation memory leaks and bound output copies in
search_pattern() to address an existing buffer issue

- "memcg: bail out reclaim when memcg is dying" (Jiayuan Chen)

Mitigate a system-wide stall which occurs when a cgroup is removed
while one of its memory control files is doing synchronous reclaim

- "mm/memory-failure: add panic option for unrecoverable pages" (Breno
Leitao)

Introduce an opt-in vm.panic_on_unrecoverable_memory_failure sysctl
that immediately panics the kernel on unrecoverable memory errors in
kernel-owned pages to preserve error context and prevent delayed,
silent data corruption

- "mm/damon: refactor damon_{start,stop,commit}() for simple error
handling" (SJ Park)

Refactor the DAMON core API functions to guarantee that all contexts
are fully stopped when damon_start(), damon_stop(), or damon_commit()
fail, eliminating the need for complex and error-prone caller-side
cleanup code

- "Keep tail page private zero at free and folio split" (Zi Yan)

Add checks to ensure tail_page->private is zero when freeing compound
or high-order pages and when promoting tail pages during large folio
splits. By validating these fields at free and split time, it allows
the removal of redundant private field clearing inside
prep_compound_tail()

- "mm: drop redundant lru_add_drain in anon folio reuse paths" (Barry
Song)

Eliminate redundant lru_add_drain() calls in
wp_can_reuse_anon_folio() and do_swap_page() to reduce LRU lock
contention and system overhead

By validating folio refcounts against the LRU cache before draining
and removing unnecessary drains in the swap path, it achieves up to a
30.5% reduction in drain calls during heavy swap workloads

- "mm: clean up folio LRU and swap declarations" (Jianyue Wu)

Reorganize folio LRU and swap code by relocating page-cluster state
to mm/swap_state.c, renaming mm/swap.c to mm/folio.c, and moving
MM-internal reclaim declarations into mm/internal.h.

- "userfaultfd: working set tracking for VM guest memory" (Kiryl
Shutsemau)

Add userfaultfd support for tracking the working set of VM guest
memory, so a VMM can identify hot pages and reclaim cold ones to
tiered or remote storage

- "mm: remove CONFIG_HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE (Part 2)" (David
Hildenbrand)

Remove the remaining pieces of CONFIG_HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE,
performing some smaller cleanups around freeing of reserved vmemmap
pages on the way.

- "mm/damon: update probe hits for runtime parameter commits" (SJ Park)

Ensure that DAMON's probe_hits attribute counter is properly updated
when monitoring intervals are changed at runtime, matching the
behavior of nr_accesses. To achieve this, it refactors and renames
existing helper functions for shared use, applies the updates to
probe_hits, and handles edge cases in damon_probe_hits_mvsum() to
maintain measurement accuracy.

- "KSM: performance optimizations for rmap_walk_ksm" (xu xin)

Resolve a severe KSM reverse-mapping performance bottleneck where
thousands of split VMAs sharing a single anon_vma cause extended lock
contention.

By adding an interval-filtering check during the rmap walk, it
reduces worst-case anon_vma lock hold times from over 500ms down to
under 2ms, preventing application freezes and latency spikes under
memory pressure.

- "mm: split a couple of headers from internal.h" (Mike Rapoport)

Split declarations related to mm_init, memblock, vmalloc and sparse
into new headers

- "KSM: use linear_page_index in collect_procs_ksm()" (xu xin)

Apply the interval tree optimization from rmap_walk_ksm() to
collect_procs_ksm() to avoid iterating over non-matching VMAs during
KSM memory error handling.

It hoists loop-invariant address initialization and restricts the
anon_vma_interval_tree_foreach walk to a targeted page offset range,
reducing redundant checks and improving lookup efficiency.

- "selftests/mm: avoid false failures in hugetlb and KSM tests" (Sayali
Patil)

Fix issues in the hugetlb and KSM MM selftest categories that can
report failures when the prerequisites for the tests are not
satisfied

- "mm/damon: introduce data attributes only monitoring" (SJ Park)

Introduce attribute-weighted region management in DAMON, allowing
users to prioritize specific data attributes (such as page sizes or
cgroups) over or instead of access monitoring.

By assigning weights to attribute probes, DAMON can completely
disable access tracking and adjust monitoring regions based on
weighted probe-hit counters to optimize monitoring quality for
attribute-focused workloads.

- "mm/hmm: Add mmap lock-drop support for userfaultfd-backed mappings"
(Stanislav Kinsburskii)

Extend hmm_range_fault() to support userfaultfd-backed regions by
allowing the mmap lock to be dropped during fault handling via a new
hmm_range_fault_locked() helper.

By accepting a locked pointer and signaling retry status when lock
release occurs, it enables page fault resolution in userfaultfd
regions while preserving backward compatibility for existing callers.

- "mm: make VMA page offset handling more consistent" (Lorenzo Stoakes)

Clean up and standardize how vma->vm_pgoff is accessed and
manipulated across file-backed and anonymous mappings in the kernel

It introduces dedicated helper functions such as vma_start_pgoff(),
vma_end_pgoff(), vma_set_pgoff() and linear_page_delta() while
renaming rmap interval tree helpers to better reflect their
functionality.

These changes establish a cleaner foundation for future work that
will unify virtual page offset indexing for all anonymous and CoW'd
folios.

- "mm: handle device-private PMDs in walk callbacks" (Usama Arif)

Address kernel panics and state corruption caused by MM walk
callbacks reaching non-present device-private PMD swap entries
created during HMM migrations

It ensures that functions which acquire pmd_trans_huge_lock()
properly recognize device-private PMDs instead of assuming a present
THP or a standard migration entry.

- "mm/rmap: Refactor try_to_unmap_one" (Dev Jain)

Refactor try_to_unmap_one by modularizing Hugetlb,
anonymous-lazyfree, and anonymous-swapbacked logic into dedicated
functions, laying the structural groundwork for batched anonymous
large folio unmapping.

- "Docs/ABI/damon: sysfs ABI document fixes and additions" (Song Hu)

Fix typos and fills in missing entries in the DAMON sysfs ABI
document

- "dax/kmem: atomic whole-device hotplug via sysfs" (Gregory Price)

Introduce an atomic sysfs state attribute and supporting DAX/MM
infrastructure to prevent userland races when offlining and removing
entire memory regions

By adding an unplugged state alongside standard online modes, it
enables whole-device atomic hotplug control while preserving backward
compatibility.

- "mm: convert more vm_flags_t users to vma_flags_t" (Lorenzo Stoakes)

Continue transitioning the kernel from the deprecated vm_flags_t type
to vma_flags_t across core memory management infrastructure.

It replaces legacy type usage in core functions such as do_mmap(),
unmapped area allocation, mm->def_vma_flags, and VMA operations like
mlock, mprotect, and mremap.

- "Two small patches to clean up mm/mm_slot.h" (xu xin)

Refactor mm_slot.h by introducing mm_slot_remove() to unify duplicate
slot deletion sequences in khugepaged and KSM. It also adds code
documentation explaining why mm_slot_lookup and mm_slot_insert must
remain as preprocessor macros rather than static inline functions.

- "mm/damon/core: hide core-private struct fields" (SJ Park)

Clean up DAMON core structures by consistently marking internal-only
fields with private: comment tags to prevent improper direct access
from outer layers.

It enforces encapsulation across core structures including
damon_region, damon_target, and damon_ctx and updates DAMON_SYSFS to
interact through approved access APIs instead of exposing raw struct
members.

- "mm/damon: unurgent fixes for infinite loop, NULL de-ref and races"
(SJ Park)

Address potential infinite loops, NULL dereferences, and race
conditions identified in DAMON

It fixes an infinite loop triggered by extreme user configurations, a
NULL pointer dereference within unit tests and minor monitoring
accuracy degradation caused by subtle runtime races.

- "mm/page_alloc: fixes for free_pages_nolock() on RT/UP" (Brendan
Jackman)

Fix an NMI safety flaw in __free_frozen_pages() where freeing pages
on non-SMP or PREEMPT_RT kernels can bypass can_spin_trylock() checks
via non-PCP or isolated migration paths.

It also resolves potential kernel crashes and privilege escalation
risks triggered when BPF tracing runs in NMI context alongside memory
hotplug or large allocation frees.

- "mm/page_alloc: couple of followups for recent cleanups" (Brendan
Jackman)

Clean up and update page allocator nomenclature, documentation, and
debug assertions.

It aligns internal FPI_ flags with the public "nolock" naming
convention, removes outdated internal implementation details from
high-level page allocator comments, and eliminates obsolete
VM_BUG_ON() assertions in allocation paths.

- "mm/mseal: further cleanups" (Lorenzo Stoakes)

Refactor and simplify the mseal implementation by clarifying API
boundaries and removing unnecessary code complexity.

It replaces generic do_mseal() usage outside the syscall with a
dedicated mseal_mmap_page_zero() helper for MMAP_PAGE_ZERO,
eliminates mm_struct parameters to enforce that sealing applies only
to current->mm, and streamlines overall logic and comments with no
functional changes intended.

- "mm/vmscan: fix swappiness=max and clean up per-node proactive
reclaim" (Ridong Chen)

Resolve reclaim behavior bugs and clean up function parameters across
memory reclaim paths

It fixes swappiness=max in both standard reclaim and MGLRU so
unswappable anonymous memory no longer falls back to evicting page
cache, ensures reclaim_store() returns accurate error codes instead
of collapsing all failures into -EAGAIN, and removes the obsolete
gfp_mask parameter from __node_reclaim().

- "mm: mincore: misc cleanups" (Kefeng Wang)

Clean up and simplifies the mincore code. Most importantly, it
removes the historical special behavior that always reports VM_PFNMAP
pages as non-resident.

- "mm/huge_memory: drop dead split helper variants" (Kiryl Shutsemau)

Two trivial cleanups in the folio split API

- "mm/damon: fix uninitialized DAMOS field and kunit exec expectation
bugs" (SJ Park)

Resolve minor operational and testing bugs in DAMON identified by
Sashiko. It initializes the damos->last_applied field to prevent
occasional efficiency degradation and fixes invalid memory accesses
in DAMON KUnit tests during test failure handling.

- "cleanup for stable_page_flags()" (Jinjiang Tu)

Clean up and refactor stable_page_flags() used by /proc/kpageflags
without altering functionality.

It uses BIT_ULL() to prevent shift-overflow warnings on 64-bit flag
bits, converts folio-specific flag checks to standard folio_test_*()
helpers, and removes redundant CONFIG_PAGE_IDLE_FLAG handling.

- "Batch unmap of uffd-wp file folios" (Dev Jain)

Extend batched folio unmapping support to file folios within
userfaultfd write-protect (uffd-wp) VMAs by adding batching
capabilities to pte_install_uffd_wp_if_needed().

This removes special-case restrictions on uffd-wp VMAs in
try_to_unmap_one(), significantly simplifying the function's control
flow and complexity.

- "mm/early_ioremap: clarify and clean up early_ioremap_reset()"
(Sang-Heon Jeon)

Clarify and clean up the architecture-specific usage of
__late_set_fixmap() and __late_clear_fixmap() after
early_ioremap_reset()

It adds explicit documentation regarding when early_ioremap_reset()
must be called and removes redundant macro definitions and reset
calls in the RISC-V and ARM64 architectures.

- "mm: fix reclaim storms in defrag_mode" (Johannes Weiner)

Address severe performance regressions, swap storms, and spurious
OOMs caused by vm.defrag_mode=1 under high memory pressure in Meta
production

It updates the page allocator slowpath so non-movable allocation
requests actively trigger direct reclaim and direct compaction at
pageblock_order scale, allowing them to claim whole pageblocks rather
than spinning unproductively.

- "zram: lockmap tweaks" (Sebastian Siewior)

Optimize and fix lockdep tracking for zram devices by consolidating
per-entry lockmaps and isolate lock classes across multiple instances

This reduces memory overhead by replacing per-entry lockdep_map
instances with a single map per struct zram, and assigns a dynamic
lock_class_key to each instance to prevent false deadlock reports
when different zram devices are backed by distinct filesystems.

mm: decouple protnone helpers from CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING

This series adds userfaultfd support for tracking the working set

mm: decouple protnone helpers from CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING

Patch series "userfaultfd: working set tracking for VM guest memory", v10.

This series adds userfaultfd support for tracking the working set of VM
guest memory, so a VMM can identify hot pages and reclaim cold ones to
tiered or remote storage.


This patch (of 15):

pte_protnone() and pmd_protnone() detect present-but-inaccessible page
table entries. This capability is useful beyond NUMA balancing -- for
example, userfaultfd working set tracking uses protnone PTEs to track page
access without unmapping pages.

Introduce CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_PTE_PROTNONE to decouple the protnone PTE
infrastructure from CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING. The six architectures that
support protnone PTEs (x86_64, arm64, powerpc, s390, riscv, loongarch) now
select this option, and CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING depends on it.

No functional change -- the same set of architectures continues to have
working protnone support, but the infrastructure is now available
independently of NUMA balancing.

mm: rename ARCH_ENABLE_THP_MIGRATION to ARCH_HAS_PMD_SOFTLEAVES

CONFIG_ARCH_ENABLE_THP_MIGRATION gates PMD-level migration entries.
PMD-level device-private entries use the same migration mechanism

mm: rename ARCH_ENABLE_THP_MIGRATION to ARCH_HAS_PMD_SOFTLEAVES

CONFIG_ARCH_ENABLE_THP_MIGRATION gates PMD-level migration entries.
PMD-level device-private entries use the same migration mechanism and
therefore require the same architecture support.

Upcoming PMD-level swap entries can use the same PMD softleaf helpers
without depending on page migration, so rename the architecture gate to
CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_PMD_SOFTLEAVES. This describes the PMD entry capability
rather than one current user of it.

This is a pure rename: the set of selecting architectures (x86, arm64,
s390, riscv, loongarch, and powerpc on PPC_BOOK3S_64) and the gating
semantics are unchanged.

No functional change intended.

Merge tag 'v7.2-rc1' into drm-rust-next

Merge v7.2-rc1 into drm-rust-next to start the next cycle.

Devres now requires T: 'static, which conflicts with shmem::Object using
Devres<SGTableMap<T, C>> without that bound. Resolve by adding 'static
as a supertrait to DriverObject and DeviceContext, which does not
restrict any current use cases since DriverObject is always implemented
on owned, refcounted types and DeviceContext is a sealed marker trait
with only unit-type implementors.

If DriverObject (or DeviceContext) ever becomes lifetime-parameterized
(e.g. via a GAT for TTM backed objects), the 'static supertrait can be
relaxed at that point.
