fc9d90470463f165a95becbfbad21795fd9752bd - bootconfig: render embedded bootconfig as a kernel cmdline at build time

Thu, 02 Jul 2026 14:15:45 +0200

bootconfig: render embedded bootconfig as a kernel cmdline at build timeAdd the build-time pipeline that renders the "kernel" subtree ofCONFIG_BOOT_CONFIG_EMBED_FILE into a flat cmdline string and stashesit in .init.rodata as embedded_kernel_cmdline[]. A follow-up patchadds the runtime helper that prepends this string to boot_command_lineduring early architecture setup so parse_early_param() sees the values.The build wires up: tools/bootconfig -C kernel - userspace tool already shared with lib/bootconfig.c, used here in -C mode to render a bootconfig file to a cmdline lib/embedded-cmdline.S - .incbin's the rendered text plus a NUL (listed under the EXTRA BOOT CONFIG MAINTAINERS entry) lib/Makefile rule - runs tools/bootconfig at build time Makefile prepare dep - ensures tools/bootconfig is built first, same pattern as tools/objtool and tools/bpf/resolve_btfidsDrop the test target from tools/bootconfig/Makefile's default 'all'recipe so that hooking the binary into the kernel build does not runtest-bootconfig.sh on every prepare. The tests stay available as'make -C tools/bootconfig test', matching the convention oftools/objtool and tools/bpf/resolve_btfids whose 'all' targets onlybuild the binary.Require BOOT_CONFIG_EMBED_FILE to be non-empty before the new optioncan be enabled, otherwise tools/bootconfig -C runs against an emptyfile and prints a parse error on every kernel build.The feature gates on CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_CMDLINE_FROM_BOOTCONFIG, asilent symbol arches select once they've wired the prepend call intosetup_arch(). No arch selects it in this patch, so the user-visibleCONFIG_CMDLINE_FROM_BOOTCONFIG is not yet enableable; when an archlater opts in, the runtime behavior is added by the follow-up patches.tools/bootconfig also installs on target systems, so its own Makefilekeeps $(CC) and stays cross-buildable as a standalone tool. The kernelbuild, which runs the tool on the build host during prepare, insteadforces CC=$(HOSTCC) from a dedicated tools/bootconfig rule and clearsCROSS_COMPILE= in the sub-make. Without that clear, an LLVM=1 crossbuild would inherit CROSS_COMPILE and tools/scripts/Makefile.includewould inject --target=/--sysroot= flags into the host clang invocation,producing a target binary that fails to exec ("Exec format error").embedded-cmdline.S places the rendered string in its own .init.rodatasubsection (.init.rodata.embed_cmdline) with the "a" (allocatable,read-only) flag and %progbits. lib/bootconfig-data.S already placesthe embedded bootconfig blob in .init.rodata with the "aw" flag(xbc_init() rewrites separators in place, so that data must bewritable). Using a distinct subsection name avoids the ld.lld section-type mismatch that would otherwise arise from mixing "a" and "aw"under the same name; the linker's "*(.init.rodata .init.rodata.*)"glob still folds both into the init image and frees them after boot.A follow-up patch wires the build-time tools/bootconfig into thetop-level clean target.Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260626-bootconfig_using_tools-v7-3-24ab72139c29@debian.org/Reviewed-by: Nicolas Schier Signed-off-by: Breno Leitao Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu (Google) List of files: /linux/lib/Makefile

"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 -

"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.* tag 'mm-stable-2026-08-18-18-39' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm: (501 commits) selftests/mm: thuge-gen: fix test_shmget() for PAGE_SIZE check selftests/mm: unpoison pages in memory-failure teardown mm/shmem: downgrade final i_blocks check in shmem_evict_inode() to pr_warn() mm/khugepaged: replace mutex_lock/mutex_unlock usage with guard macro mm/zsmalloc: fix release order of locks in zs_page_migrate() Documentation: zram: remove sections numbering ksm: stop iterating VMAs when ksm_test_exit returns true mm: fold userfaultfd_rwp() to false without CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_PTE_PROTNONE mm/migrate: report RCU-tasks quiescent states in migrate_pages_batch() zram: use a custom key for each zram object zram: move lockmap to be per-zram instead per table selftests/mm: fix gup_longterm EINVAL error message mm: page_alloc: fix non-movable reclaim storm in defrag_mode mm: page_alloc: move capture_control to the page allocator mm: compaction: support non-movable compaction for pageblock requests mm: page_alloc: __GFP_FS lockdep annotation for direct compaction hugetlb: evaluate subpool free state while locked mm/damon: remove trailing semicolons after function definitions mm/damon/ops-common: prevent migration fallback to non-target nodes mm/damon: update outdated comment about DAMOS filter handling ...

f4806cc63cc65bd752fd72d84937614dca6504ec - lib: test bitmap vs IDA vs Maple Tree performance for region allocations

Fri, 17 Jul 2026 07:32:40 +0200

lib: test bitmap vs IDA vs Maple Tree performance for region allocationsCompare the cost of allocating and freeing variable-sized regions usinga bitmap, IDA and a Maple Tree. All implementations process the samerandomly generated sequence of regions containing up to 32 entries, untilthe configured capacity is exhausted.The benchmark exercises monotonic allocation into an initially empty pool,followed by reverse-order freeing. It does not model fragmentation orinterleaved allocation and freeing, nor does it isolate locking or RCUoverhead. Allocation time includes the terminal failed request that detectsexhaustion.Run the benchmark at several capacities to show how the approaches scale.Report allocation and free times separately because bitmap, IDA and MapleTree removal have substantially different costs.On x86/kvm, the output example is:Start testing bitmap vs IDA vs Maple Tree region allocationmemory: bitmap is exact; IDA and Maple Tree are lower boundsType alloc (ns) free (ns) regions capacity memory (B)Bitmap 93457345 176151 60644 1000000 125000Maple 11758660 12870146 60644 1000000 1552656IDA 31066416 20870824 60644 1000000 134864Bitmap 919119 17679 6032 100000 12504Maple 1158193 1187140 6032 100000 154640IDA 2759670 2116004 6032 100000 14288Bitmap 17120 2043 613 10000 1256Maple 116350 117537 613 10000 15888IDA 243396 202654 613 10000 1872Bitmap 1220 262 55 1000 128Maple 12076 10106 55 1000 1552IDA 25730 20875 55 1000 144Bitmap 593 124 18 100 16Maple 3599 4782 18 100 528IDA 3266 1960 18 100 144Bitmap 414 129 10 10 8Maple 2143 1385 10 10 272IDA 892 648 10 10 16Region allocation benchmark completeReported IDA and Maple Tree memory figures exclude slab overheadand transient allocations. The Maple Tree figure is additionallya lower-bound estimate that assumes fully occupied leaf nodes andexcludes internal nodes.IDA has no region-allocation API, so each region is implemented asa sequence of single-ID allocations. The IDs remain contiguousbecause this benchmark fills an initially empty IDA monotonically.The benchmark is motivated by the discussion linked below about choosingthe best data structure for the channel ID pool with the capacity of 2048IDs for the nova GPU driver.Specifically for 2048 IDs the result is:Bitmap 5112 615 121 2048 256Maple 78526 59592 121 2048 3344IDA 165274 117761 121 2048 848The benchmark accepts a list of up to 64 nonzero capacities to test.For example: insmod region_alloc_benchmark.ko capacities=1024,2048,4096,65536The list may contain duplicate capacities. Each occurrence generates a newregion-size sequence, which is useful for collecting statisticalcharacteristics of the benchmark results.Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260710-chid-maple-v1-1-4ee869055268@nvidia.com/Tested-by: Eliot Courtney Reviewed-by: Eliot Courtney Signed-off-by: Yury Norov List of files: /linux/lib/Makefile
