Merge tag 'mm-stable-2026-02-11-19-22' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mmPull MM updates from Andrew Morton: - "powerpc/64s: do not re-activate batched TLB flush" makes arch_{enter|leave}_lazy_mmu_mode() nest properly (Alexander Gordeev) It adds a generic enter/leave layer and switches architectures to use it. Various hacks were removed in the process. - "zram: introduce compressed data writeback" implements data compression for zram writeback (Richard Chang and Sergey Senozhatsky) - "mm: folio_zero_user: clear page ranges" adds clearing of contiguous page ranges for hugepages. Large improvements during demand faulting are demonstrated (David Hildenbrand) - "memcg cleanups" tidies up some memcg code (Chen Ridong) - "mm/damon: introduce {,max_}nr_snapshots and tracepoint for damos stats" improves DAMOS stat's provided information, deterministic control, and readability (SeongJae Park) - "selftests/mm: hugetlb cgroup charging: robustness fixes" fixes a few issues in the hugetlb cgroup charging selftests (Li Wang) - "Fix va_high_addr_switch.sh test failure - again" addresses several issues in the va_high_addr_switch test (Chunyu Hu) - "mm/damon/tests/core-kunit: extend existing test scenarios" improves the KUnit test coverage for DAMON (Shu Anzai) - "mm/khugepaged: fix dirty page handling for MADV_COLLAPSE" fixes a glitch in khugepaged which was causing madvise(MADV_COLLAPSE) to transiently return -EAGAIN (Shivank Garg) - "arch, mm: consolidate hugetlb early reservation" reworks and consolidates a pile of straggly code related to reservation of hugetlb memory from bootmem and creation of CMA areas for hugetlb (Mike Rapoport) - "mm: clean up anon_vma implementation" cleans up the anon_vma implementation in various ways (Lorenzo Stoakes) - "tweaks for __alloc_pages_slowpath()" does a little streamlining of the page allocator's slowpath code (Vlastimil Babka) - "memcg: separate private and public ID namespaces" cleans up the memcg ID code and prevents the internal-only private IDs from being exposed to userspace (Shakeel Butt) - "mm: hugetlb: allocate frozen gigantic folio" cleans up the allocation of frozen folios and avoids some atomic refcount operations (Kefeng Wang) - "mm/damon: advance DAMOS-based LRU sorting" improves DAMOS's movement of memory betewwn the active and inactive LRUs and adds auto-tuning of the ratio-based quotas and of monitoring intervals (SeongJae Park) - "Support page table check on PowerPC" makes CONFIG_PAGE_TABLE_CHECK_ENFORCED work on powerpc (Andrew Donnellan) - "nodemask: align nodes_and{,not} with underlying bitmap ops" makes nodes_and() and nodes_andnot() propagate the return values from the underlying bit operations, enabling some cleanup in calling code (Yury Norov) - "mm/damon: hide kdamond and kdamond_lock from API callers" cleans up some DAMON internal interfaces (SeongJae Park) - "mm/khugepaged: cleanups and scan limit fix" does some cleanup work in khupaged and fixes a scan limit accounting issue (Shivank Garg) - "mm: balloon infrastructure cleanups" goes to town on the balloon infrastructure and its page migration function. Mainly cleanups, also some locking simplification (David Hildenbrand) - "mm/vmscan: add tracepoint and reason for kswapd_failures reset" adds additional tracepoints to the page reclaim code (Jiayuan Chen) - "Replace wq users and add WQ_PERCPU to alloc_workqueue() users" is part of Marco's kernel-wide migration from the legacy workqueue APIs over to the preferred unbound workqueues (Marco Crivellari) - "Various mm kselftests improvements/fixes" provides various unrelated improvements/fixes for the mm kselftests (Kevin Brodsky) - "mm: accelerate gigantic folio allocation" greatly speeds up gigantic folio allocation, mainly by avoiding unnecessary work in pfn_range_valid_contig() (Kefeng Wang) - "selftests/damon: improve leak detection and wss estimation reliability" improves the reliability of two of the DAMON selftests (SeongJae Park) - "mm/damon: cleanup kdamond, damon_call(), damos filter and DAMON_MIN_REGION" does some cleanup work in the core DAMON code (SeongJae Park) - "Docs/mm/damon: update intro, modules, maintainer profile, and misc" performs maintenance work on the DAMON documentation (SeongJae Park) - "mm: add and use vma_assert_stabilised() helper" refactors and cleans up the core VMA code. The main aim here is to be able to use the mmap write lock's lockdep state to perform various assertions regarding the locking which the VMA code requires (Lorenzo Stoakes) - "mm, swap: swap table phase II: unify swapin use" removes some old swap code (swap cache bypassing and swap synchronization) which wasn't working very well. Various other cleanups and simplifications were made. The end result is a 20% speedup in one benchmark (Kairui Song) - "enable PT_RECLAIM on more 64-bit architectures" makes PT_RECLAIM available on 64-bit alpha, loongarch, mips, parisc, and um.

Tue, 02 Dec 2025 16:51:38 +0100

scsi: ufs: core: Fix RPMB link error by reversing Kconfig dependenciesWhen CONFIG_SCSI_UFSHCD=y and CONFIG_RPMB=m, the kernel fails to linkwith undefined references to ufs_rpmb_probe() and ufs_rpmb_remove(): ld: drivers/ufs/core/ufshcd.c:8950: undefined reference to `ufs_rpmb_probe' ld: drivers/ufs/core/ufshcd.c:10505: undefined reference to `ufs_rpmb_remove'The issue is that RPMB depends on its consumers (MMC, UFS) in Kconfig,which is backwards. This prevents proper module dependency handling whenthe library is modular but consumers are built-in.Fix by reversing the dependency: - Remove 'depends on MMC || SCSI_UFSHCD' from RPMB Kconfig - Add 'depends on RPMB || !RPMB' to SCSI_UFSHCD KconfigThis allows RPMB to be an independent library while ensuring correctlinking in all module/built-in combinations.Fixes: b06b8c421485 ("scsi: ufs: core: Add OP-TEE based RPMB driver for UFS devices")Reported-by: kernel test robot Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/oe-kbuild-all/202511300443.h7sotuL0-lkp@intel.com/Suggested-by: Arnd Bergmann Cc: Bart Van Assche Cc: Jens Wiklander Cc: Ulf Hansson Signed-off-by: Bean Huo Reviewed-by: Arnd Bergmann Reviewed-by: Jens Wiklander Reviewed-by: Bart Van Assche Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20251202155138.2607210-1-beanhuo@iokpp.deSigned-off-by: Martin K.

82f78acd5a9270370ef4aa3f032ede25f3dc91ee - Merge patch series "Add OP-TEE based RPMB driver for UFS devices"

Thu, 20 Nov 2025 16:26:13 +0100

Merge patch series "Add OP-TEE based RPMB driver for UFS devices"Bean Huo says:This patch series introduces OP-TEE based RPMB (Replay ProtectedMemory Block) support for UFS devices, extending the kernel-levelsecure storage capabilities that are currently available for eMMCdevices.Previously, OP-TEE required a userspace supplicant to access RPMBpartitions, which created complex dependencies and reliability issues,especially during early boot scenarios. Recent work by Linaro hasmoved core supplicant functionality directly into the Linux kernel foreMMC devices, eliminating userspace dependencies and enablingimmediate secure storage access. This series extends the same approachto UFS devices, which are used in enterprise and mobile applicationsthat require secure storage capabilities.Benefits: - Eliminates dependency on userspace supplicant for UFS RPMB access - Enables early boot secure storage access (e.g., fTPM, secure UEFI variables) - Provides kernel-level RPMB access as soon as UFS driver is initialized - Removes complex initramfs dependencies and boot ordering requirements - Ensures reliable and deterministic secure storage operations - Supports both built-in and modular fTPM configurations.Prerequisites:--------------This patch series depends on commit 7e8242405b94 ("rpmb: move structrpmb_frame to common header") which has been merged into mainlinev6.18-rc2.Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20251107230518.4060231-1-beanhuo@iokpp.deSigned-off-by: Martin K.
