Mon, 27 Jul 2026 16:47:22 +0200

sysctl: remove CONFIG_PROC_SYSCTL, it just mirrors CONFIG_SYSCTLCONFIG_SYSCTL used to make sense as a separate hidden bool before commit61a47c1ad3a4 ("sysctl: Remove the sysctl system call"); it was selectedby both CONFIG_SYSCTL_SYSCALL and CONFIG_PROC_SYSCTL.Today CONFIG_PROC_SYSCTL is the only selector, so the two are alwaysequal.

Wed, 26 Mar 2025 13:42:07 +0100

Merge branch 'for-6.15/amd_sfh' into for-linusFrom: Mario Limonciello Some platforms include a human presence detection (HPD) sensor. Whenenabled and a user is detected a wake event will be emitted from thesensor fusion hub that software can react to.Example use cases are "wake from suspend on approach" or to "lockwhen leaving".This is currently enabled by default on supported systems, but userscan't control it. This essentially means that wake on approach isenabled which is a really surprising behavior to users that don'texpect it.Instead of defaulting to enabled add a sysfs knob that users canuse to enable the feature if desirable and set it to disabled bydefault.

7ad4d1f6e6ef967cd24c6275d8d4056045c019c1 - fs/proc/vmcore: introduce PROC_VMCORE_DEVICE_RAM to detect device RAM ranges in 2nd kernel

Wed, 04 Dec 2024 13:54:39 +0100

fs/proc/vmcore: introduce PROC_VMCORE_DEVICE_RAM to detect device RAM ranges in 2nd kernels390 allocates+prepares the elfcore hdr in the dump (2nd) kernel, not inthe crashed kernel.RAM provided by memory devices such as virtio-mem can only be detectedusing the device driver; when vmcore_init() is called, these devicedrivers are usually not loaded yet, or the devices did not get probedyet. Consequently, on s390 these RAM ranges will not be included inthe crash dump, which makes the dump partially corrupt and isunfortunate.Instead of deferring the vmcore_init() call, to an (unclear?) later point,let's reuse the vmcore_cb infrastructure to obtain device RAM ranges asthe device drivers probe the device and get access to this information.Then, we'll add these ranges to the vmcore, adding more PT_LOADentries and updating the offsets+vmcore size.Use a separate Kconfig option to be set by an architecture to include thiscode only if the arch really needs it. Further, we'll make the configdepend on the relevant drivers (i.e., virtio_mem) once they implementsupport (next). The alternative of having a PROVIDE_PROC_VMCORE_DEVICE_RAMconfig option was dropped for now for simplicity.The current target use case is s390, which only creates an elf64elfcore, so focusing on elf64 is sufficient.Signed-off-by: David Hildenbrand Message-Id: <20241204125444.1734652-9-david@redhat.com>Acked-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Michael S.
