git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vbabka/slab
Pull slab updates from Vlastimil Babka:
- A new layer for caching objects for allocation and free via percpu
arrays called sheaves.
The aim is to combine the good parts of SLAB (lower-overhead and
simpler percpu caching, compared to SLUB) without the past issues
with arrays for freeing remote NUMA node objects and their flushing.
It also allows more efficient kfree_rcu(), and cheaper object
preallocations for cases where the exact number of objects is
unknown, but an upper bound is.
Currently VMAs and maple nodes are using this new caching, with a
plan to enable it for all caches and remove the complex SLUB fastpath
based on cpu (partial) slabs and this_cpu_cmpxchg_double().
(Vlastimil Babka, with Liam Howlett and Pedro Falcato for the maple
tree changes)
- Re-entrant kmalloc_nolock(), which allows opportunistic allocations
from NMI and tracing/kprobe contexts.
Building on prior page allocator and memcg changes, it will result in
removing BPF-specific caches on top of slab (Alexei Starovoitov)
- Various fixes and cleanups. (Kuan-Wei Chiu, Matthew Wilcox, Suren
Baghdasaryan, Ye Liu)

Pull block updates from Jens Axboe:
- NVMe pull request via Keith:
- FC target fixes (Daniel)
- Authentication fixes and updates (Martin, Chris)
- Admin controller handling (Kamaljit)
- Target lockdep assertions (Max)
- Keep-alive updates for discovery (Alastair)
- Suspend quirk (Georg)
- MD pull request via Yu:
- Add support for a lockless bitmap.
A key feature for the new bitmap are that the IO fastpath is
lockless. If a user issues lots of write IO to the same bitmap
bit in a short time, only the first write has additional overhead
to update bitmap bit, no additional overhead for the following
writes.
By supporting only resync or recover written data, means in the
case creating new array or replacing with a new disk, there is no
need to do a full disk resync/recovery.
- Switch ->getgeo() and ->bios_param() to using struct gendisk rather
than struct block_device.
- Rust block changes via Andreas. This series adds configuration via
configfs and remote completion to the rnull driver. The series also
includes a set of changes to the rust block device driver API: a few
cleanup patches, and a few features supporting the rnull changes.
The series removes the raw buffer formatting logic from
`kernel::block` and improves the logic available in `kernel::string`
to support the same use as the removed logic.
- floppy arch cleanups
- Reduce the number of dereferencing needed for ublk commands
- Restrict supported sockets for nbd. Mostly done to eliminate a class
of issues perpetually reported by syzbot, by using nonsensical socket
setups.
- A few s390 dasd block fixes
- Fix a few issues around atomic writes
- Improve DMA interation for integrity requests
- Improve how iovecs are treated with regards to O_DIRECT aligment
constraints.
We used to require each segment to adhere to the constraints, now
only the request as a whole needs to.
- Clean up and improve p2p support, enabling use of p2p for metadata
payloads
- Improve locking of request lookup, using SRCU where appropriate
- Use page references properly for brd, avoiding very long RCU sections
- Fix ordering of recursively submitted IOs

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/shuah/linux-kselftest
Pull kunit updates from Shuah Khan:
- New parameterized test features
KUnit parameterized tests supported two primary methods for getting
parameters:
- Defining custom logic within a generate_params() function.
- Using the KUNIT_ARRAY_PARAM() and KUNIT_ARRAY_PARAM_DESC() macros
with a pre-defined static array and passing the created
*_gen_params() to KUNIT_CASE_PARAM().
These methods present limitations when dealing with dynamically
generated parameter arrays, or in scenarios where populating
parameters sequentially via generate_params() is inefficient or
overly complex.
These limitations are fixed with a parameterized test method
- Fix issues in kunit build artifacts cleanup
- Fix parsing skipped test problem in kselftest framework
- Enable PCI on UML without triggering WARN()
- a few other fixes and adds support for new configs such as MIPS

Pull timer core updates from Thomas Gleixner:
- Address the inconsistent shutdown sequence of per CPU clockevents on
CPU hotplug, which only removed it from the core but failed to invoke
the actual device driver shutdown callback. This kept the timer
active, which prevented power savings and caused pointless noise in
virtualization.
- Encapsulate the open coded access to the hrtimer clock base, which is
a private implementation detail, so that the implementation can be
changed without breaking a lot of usage sites.
- Enhance the debug output of the clocksource watchdog to provide
better information for analysis.
- The usual set of cleanups and enhancements all over the place

- Migrate the MD5 code into lib/crypto/, and add KUnit tests for MD5.
Yes, it's still the 90s, and several kernel subsystems are still

it's helpful to clean it up in the same way as I've been doing for
other algorithms.
Later, I plan to convert most of these users of MD5 to use the new

Use the generic interface which should result in less bulk allocations
during a forking.
A part of this is to abstract the freeing of the sheaf or maple state
allocations into its own function so mas_destroy() and the tree
duplication code can use the same functionality to return any unused
resources.

improve its performance. Note this will not immediately take advantage
of sheaf batching of kfree_rcu() operations due to the maple tree using
call_rcu with custom callbacks. The followup changes to maple tree will
change that and also make use of the prefilled sheaves functionality.

Bulk insert mode was added to facilitate forking faster, but forking now
uses __mt_dup() to duplicate the tree.
The addition of sheaves has made the bulk allocations difficult to
maintain - since the expected entries would preallocate into the maple
state. A big part of the maple state node allocation was the ability to
push nodes back onto the state for later use, which was essential to the
bulk insert algorithm.
Remove mas_expected_entries() and mas_destroy_rebalance() functions as
well as the MA_STATE_BULK and MA_STATE_REBALANCE maple state flags since
there are no users anymore. Drop the associated testing as well.

Commit 16f5dfbc851b ("gfp: include __GFP_NOWARN in GFP_NOWAIT") made
GFP_NOWAIT implicitly include __GFP_NOWARN.
Therefore, explicit __GFP_NOWARN combined with GFP_NOWAIT (e.g.,
`GFP_NOWAIT | __GFP_NOWARN`) is now redundant. Let's clean up these
redundant flags across subsystems.

While rare, memory allocation profiling can contain inaccurate counters if
slab object extension vector allocation fails. That allocation might
succeed later but prior to that, slab allocations that would have used
that object extension vector will not be accounted for. To indicate
incorrect counters, "accurate:no" marker is appended to the call site line
in the /proc/allocinfo output. Bump up /proc/allocinfo version to reflect
the change in the file format and update documentation.

Memory profiling can be shut down due to reasons like a failure during
initialization. When this happens, the user should not be able to
re-enable it. Current sysctrl interface does not handle this properly and
will allow re-enabling memory profiling. Fix this by checking for this
condition during sysctrl write operation.

Patch series "kasan: unify kasan_enabled() and remove arch-specific
implementations", v6.
This patch series addresses the fragmentation in KASAN initialization
across architectures by introducing a unified approach that eliminates
duplicate static keys and arch-specific kasan_arch_is_ready()
implementations.
The core issue is that different architectures have inconsistent approaches
to KASAN readiness tracking:
- PowerPC, LoongArch, and UML arch, each implement own kasan_arch_is_ready()
- Only HW_TAGS mode had a unified static key (kasan_flag_enabled)
- Generic and SW_TAGS modes relied on arch-specific solutions
or always-on behavior
This patch (of 2):
Introduce CONFIG_ARCH_DEFER_KASAN to identify architectures [1] that need
to defer KASAN initialization until shadow memory is properly set up, and
unify the static key infrastructure across all KASAN modes.
[1] PowerPC, UML, LoongArch selects ARCH_DEFER_KASAN.
The core issue is that different architectures haveinconsistent approaches
to KASAN readiness tracking:
- PowerPC, LoongArch, and UML arch, each implement own
kasan_arch_is_ready()
- Only HW_TAGS mode had a unified static key (kasan_flag_enabled)

Let's replace kasan_arch_is_ready() with existing kasan_enabled() check,
which examines the static key being enabled if arch selects
ARCH_DEFER_KASAN or has HW_TAGS mode support. For other arch,
kasan_enabled() checks the enablement during compile time.
Now KASAN users can use a single kasan_enabled() check everywhere.

Commit bd7c2312128e ("pinctrl: meson: Fix typo in device table macro")
is needed in kbuild-next to avoid a build error with a future change.
While at it, address the conflict between commit 41f9049cff32 ("riscv:
Only allow LTO with CMODEL_MEDANY") and commit 6578a1ff6aa4 ("riscv:
Remove version check for LTO_CLANG selects"), as reported by Stephen
Rothwell [1].

Add an implementation of sha256_finup_2x_arch() for x86_64. It
interleaves the computation of two SHA-256 hashes using the x86 SHA-NI
instructions. dm-verity and fs-verity will take advantage of this for
greatly improved performance on capable CPUs.
This increases the throughput of SHA-256 hashing 4096-byte messages by
the following amounts on the following CPUs:
Intel Ice Lake (server): 4%
Intel Sapphire Rapids: 38%
Intel Emerald Rapids: 38%
AMD Zen 1 (Threadripper 1950X): 84%
AMD Zen 4 (EPYC 9B14): 98%
AMD Zen 5 (Ryzen 9 9950X): 64%
For now, this seems to benefit AMD more than Intel. This seems to be
because current AMD CPUs support concurrent execution of the SHA-NI
instructions, but unfortunately current Intel CPUs don't, except for the
sha256msg2 instruction. Hopefully future Intel CPUs will support SHA-NI
on more execution ports. Zen 1 supports 2 concurrent sha256rnds2, and
Zen 4 supports 4 concurrent sha256rnds2, which suggests that even better
performance may be achievable on Zen 4 by interleaving more than two
hashes. However, doing so poses a number of trade-offs, and furthermore
Zen 5 goes back to supporting "only" 2 concurrent sha256rnds2.

Many arm64 and x86_64 CPUs can compute two SHA-256 hashes in nearly the
same speed as one, if the instructions are interleaved. This is because
SHA-256 is serialized block-by-block, and two interleaved hashes take
much better advantage of the CPU's instruction-level parallelism.
Meanwhile, a very common use case for SHA-256 hashing in the Linux
kernel is dm-verity and fs-verity. Both use a Merkle tree that has a
fixed block size, usually 4096 bytes with an empty or 32-byte salt
prepended. Usually, many blocks need to be hashed at a time. This is
an ideal scenario for 2-way interleaved hashing.
To enable this optimization, add a new function sha256_finup_2x() to the
SHA-256 library API. It computes the hash of two equal-length messages,
starting from a common initial context.
For now it always falls back to sequential processing. Later patches
will wire up arm64 and x86_64 optimized implementations.
Note that the interleaving factor could in principle be higher than 2x.
However, that runs into many practical difficulties and CPU throughput
limitations. Thus, both the implementations I'm adding are 2x. In the
interest of using the simplest solution, the API matches that.

Various KUnit tests require PCI infrastructure to work. All normal
platforms enable PCI by default, but UML does not. Enabling PCI from
.kunitconfig files is problematic as it would not be portable. So in
commit 6fc3a8636a7b ("kunit: tool: Enable virtio/PCI by default on UML")
PCI was enabled by way of CONFIG_UML_PCI_OVER_VIRTIO=y. However
CONFIG_UML_PCI_OVER_VIRTIO requires additional configuration of
CONFIG_UML_PCI_OVER_VIRTIO_DEVICE_ID or will otherwise trigger a WARN() in
virtio_pcidev_init(). However there is no one correct value for
UML_PCI_OVER_VIRTIO_DEVICE_ID which could be used by default.
This warning is confusing when debugging test failures.
On the other hand, the functionality of CONFIG_UML_PCI_OVER_VIRTIO is not
used at all, given that it is completely non-functional as indicated by
the WARN() in question. Instead it is only used as a way to enable
CONFIG_UML_PCI which itself is not directly configurable.
Instead of going through CONFIG_UML_PCI_OVER_VIRTIO, introduce a custom
configuration option which enables CONFIG_UML_PCI without triggering
warnings or building dead code.

Generalization of panic_print's dump function [1] has been merged, and
this patchset is to address some remaining issues, like adding note of the
obsoletion of 'panic_print' cmdline parameter, refining the kernel
document for panic_print, and hardening some string management.
This patch (of 4):
It is a normal case that bitmask parameter is 0, so pre-initialize the
names[] to null string to cover this case.
Also remove the superfluous "+1" in names[sizeof(sys_info_avail) + 1],
which is needed for 'strlen()', but not for 'sizeof()'.

Therefore, explicit __GFP_NOWARN combined with GFP_NOWAIT (e.g.,
`GFP_NOWAIT | __GFP_NOWARN`) is now redundant. Let's clean up these
