This gets much closer to Matthew Wilcox's long term wish for
struct-pageless IO to cacheable DRAM and is supporting memdesc

An advantage of this approach is the possibility of introducing

"This focuses on two primary updates for Android devices.
First, it sets hash-based file name lookup as the default method to
improve performance, while retaining an option to fall back to a
linear lookup.
Second, it resolves a persistent issue with the 'checkpoint=enable'
feature.
The update further boosts performance by prefetching node blocks,
merging FUA writes more efficiently, and optimizing block allocation
policies.
The release is rounded out by a comprehensive set of bug fixes that
address memory safety, data integrity, and potential system hangs,
along with minor documentation and code clean-ups.
Enhancements:
- add mount option and sysfs entry to tune the lookup mode
- dump more information and add a timeout when enabling/disabling
checkpoints
- readahead node blocks in F2FS_GET_BLOCK_PRECACHE mode
- merge FUA command with the existing writes
- allocate HOT_DATA for IPU writes
- Use allocate_section_policy to control write priority in
multi-devices setups
- add reserved nodes for privileged users
- Add bggc_io_aware to adjust the priority of BG_GC when issuing IO

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 networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
"Core & protocols:
- Improve drop account scalability on NUMA hosts for RAW and UDP
sockets and the backlog, almost doubling the Pps capacity under DoS
- Optimize the UDP RX performance under stress, reducing contention,
revisiting the binary layout of the involved data structs and
implementing NUMA-aware locking. This improves UDP RX performance
by an additional 50%, even more under extreme conditions
- Add support for PSP encryption of TCP connections; this mechanism
has some similarities with IPsec and TLS, but offers superior HW
offloads capabilities
- Ongoing work to support Accurate ECN for TCP. AccECN allows more
than one congestion notification signal per RTT and is a building
block for Low Latency, Low Loss, and Scalable Throughput (L4S)
- Reorganize the TCP socket binary layout for data locality, reducing
the number of touched cachelines in the fastpath
- Refactor skb deferral free to better scale on large multi-NUMA
hosts, this improves TCP and UDP RX performances significantly on
such HW
- Increase the default socket memory buffer limits from 256K to 4M to
better fit modern link speeds
- Improve handling of setups with a large number of nexthop, making
dump operating scaling linearly and avoiding unneeded
synchronize_rcu() on delete
- Improve bridge handling of VLAN FDB, storing a single entry per
bridge instead of one entry per port; this makes the dump order of
magnitude faster on large switches
- Restore IP ID correctly for encapsulated packets at GSO
segmentation time, allowing GRO to merge packets in more scenarios
- Improve netfilter matching performance on large sets
- Allow bridges to redirect to a backup port when the bridge port is
administratively down
- Introduce MPTCP 'laminar' endpoint that con be used only once per
connection and simplify common MPTCP setups
- Add RCU safety to dst->dev, closing a lot of possible races
- A significant crypto library API for SCTP, MPTCP and IPv6 SR,
reducing code duplication
- Supports pulling data from an skb frag into the linear area of an
XDP buffer
Things we sprinkled into general kernel code:
- Generate netlink documentation from YAML using an integrated YAML
parser
Driver API:
- Support using IPv6 Flow Label in Rx hash computation and RSS queue
selection

easily building DevMem-enabled drivers with a unified XDP/skbs
datapath
- Add a new dedicated ethtool callback enabling drivers to provide
the number of RX rings directly, improving efficiency and clarity
in RX ring queries and RSS configuration
- Introduce a burst period for the health reporter, allowing better
handling of multiple errors due to the same root cause
- Support for DPLL phase offset exponential moving average,
controlling the average smoothing factor

- 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

- Rust block changes via Andreas. This series adds configuration via

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.

Pull io_uring updates from Jens Axboe:
- Store ring provided buffers locally for the users, rather than stuff
them into struct io_kiocb.
These types of buffers must always be fully consumed or recycled in
the current context, and leaving them in struct io_kiocb is hence not
a good ideas as that struct has a vastly different life time.
Basically just an architecture cleanup that can help prevent issues
with ring provided buffers in the future.
- Support for mixed CQE sizes in the same ring.
Before this change, a CQ ring either used the default 16b CQEs, or it
was setup with 32b CQE using IORING_SETUP_CQE32. For use cases where
a few 32b CQEs were needed, this caused everything else to use big
CQEs. This is wasteful both in terms of memory usage, but also memory
bandwidth for the posted CQEs.
With IORING_SETUP_CQE_MIXED, applications may use request types that
post both normal 16b and big 32b CQEs on the same ring.
- Add helpers for async data management, to make it harder for opcode
handlers to mess it up.
- Add support for multishot for uring_cmd, which ublk can use. This
helps improve efficiency, by providing a persistent request type that
can trigger multiple CQEs.
- Add initial support for ring feature querying.
We had basic support for probe operations, but the API isn't great.
Rather than expand that, add support for QUERY which is easily
expandable and can cover a lot more cases than the existing probe
support. This will help applications get a better idea of what
operations are supported on a given host.
- zcrx improvements from Pavel:
- Improve refill entry alignment for better caching
- Various cleanups, especially around deduplicating normal
memory vs dmabuf setup.
- Generalisation of the niov size (Patch 12). It's still hard
coded to PAGE_SIZE on init, but will let the user to specify
the rx buffer length on setup.
- Syscall / synchronous bufer return. It'll be used as a slow
fallback path for returning buffers when the refill queue is
full. Useful for tolerating slight queue size misconfiguration
or with inconsistent load.
- Accounting more memory to cgroups.
- Additional independent cleanups that will also be useful for
mutli-area support.

cifs: client: force multichannel=off when max_channels=1
Previously, specifying both multichannel and max_channels=1 as mount
options would leave multichannel enabled, even though it is not
meaningful when only one channel is allowed. This led to confusion and
inconsistent behavior, as the client would advertise multichannel
capability but never establish secondary channels.
Fix this by forcing multichannel to false whenever max_channels=1,
ensuring the mount configuration is consistent and matches user intent.
This prevents the client from advertising or attempting multichannel
support when it is not possible.

like QEMU with a log like:

Certain io_uring completions might be added to task_work with

the task.
In __smb_send_rqst(), signals are masked before calling
smb_send_kvec(), but the masking does not apply to TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL.
If sk_stream_wait_memory() is reached via sock_sendmsg() while
TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL is set, signal_pending(current) will evaluate to
true there, and -EINTR will be propagated all the way from
sk_stream_wait_memory() to sock_sendmsg() in smb_send_kvec().
Afterwards, __smb_send_rqst() will see that not everything was written

When verifying BPF programs, the check_alu_op() function validates
instructions with ALU operations. The 'offset' field in these
instructions is a signed 16-bit integer.
The existing check 'insn->off > 1' was intended to ensure the offset is
either 0, or 1 for BPF_MOD/BPF_DIV. However, because 'insn->off' is
signed, this check incorrectly accepts all negative values (e.g., -1).
This commit tightens the validation by changing the condition to
'(insn->off != 0 && insn->off != 1)'. This ensures that any value
other than the explicitly permitted 0 and 1 is rejected, hardening the
verifier against malformed BPF programs.

libbpf: fix libbpf_sha256() for Github compatibility
Recent reimplementation of libbpf_sha256() introduced issues for libbpf's
Github mirror due to reliance on linux/unaligned.h header. This patch set
fixes those issues to make libbpf source code compatible with Github mirror
setup.
This patch set starts with a bit of organization: we introduce libbpf_utils.c
as a place for generic internal helpers like libbpf_errstr() and
libbpf_sha256(), and move a few existing helpers there. We also clean up
libbpf_strerror_r(), which seems to be a leftover of some previous
refactorings.
And finally, we move libbpf_sha256() from huge libbpf.c into libbpf_utils.c,
following up with fix ups to make its code more Github-friendly.
v1->v2:
- add missed cpu_to_be32() and be32_to_cpu() conversions inside
{get/put}_unaligned_be32() macros;
- target bpf tree (Alexei);
- applied Eric's libbpf_sha256 selftest locally and verified it works;

libbpf: remove linux/unaligned.h dependency for libbpf_sha256()
linux/unaligned.h include dependency is causing issues for libbpf's
Github mirror due to {get,put}_unaligned_be32() usage.
So get rid of it by implementing custom variants of those macros that
will work both in kernel and Github mirror repos.
Also switch round_up() to roundup(), as the former is not available in
Github mirror (and is just a subtly more specific variant of roundup()
anyways).

bpf: Fix verifier crash on BPF_NEG with pointer register
This patch fixes a crash in the BPF verifier triggered when the BPF_NEG
operation is applied to a pointer-typed register. The verifier now
checks that the destination register is not a pointer before performing
the operation.
Tested with syzkaller reproducer and new BPF sefltest. Closes: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=d36d5ae81e1b0a53ef58
Changes v4:
Cleaning up, instead of using __is_pointer_value it's further
simplified by checking if regs[insn->dst_reg].type of SCALAR_VALUE

selftests/bpf: Add test for BPF_NEG alu on CONST_PTR_TO_MAP
Add a test case for BPF_NEG operation on CONST_PTR_TO_MAP. Tests if
BPF_NEG operation on map_ptr is rejected in unprivileged mode and is a
scalar value and do not trigger Oops in privileged mode.

bpf: Skip scalar adjustment for BPF_NEG if dst is a pointer
In check_alu_op(), the verifier currently calls check_reg_arg() and
adjust_scalar_min_max_vals() unconditionally for BPF_NEG operations.
However, if the destination register holds a pointer, these scalar
adjustments are unnecessary and potentially incorrect.
This patch adds a check to skip the adjustment logic when the destination
register contains a pointer.

Pull pin control updates from Linus Walleij:
"We have GPIO awareness in the pin control core and an interesting
AAEON driver.
Core changes:
- Allow pins to be identified/marked as GPIO mode with a special
callback.
The pin controller core is now "aware" if a pin is in GPIO mode if
the callback is implemented in the driver, and can thus be marked
as "strict", i.e. disallowing simultaneous use of a line as GPIO
and another function such as I2C.
This is enabled in the Qualcomm TLMM driver and also implemeted
from day 1 in the new Broadcom STB driver
- Rename the pin config option PIN_CONFIG_OUTPUT to PIN_CONFIG_LEVEL
to better describe what the config is doing, as well as making it
more intuitive what shall be returned when reading this property
This is some special pin controller that works as an external
advanced line MUX and amplifier for signals from an Intel SoC. A
cooperative effort with the GPIO maintainer was needed to reach a
solution where we reuse code from the GPIO aggregator/forwarder
driver
- Renesas RZ/T2H and RZ/N2H pin controller support
- Axis ARTPEC-8 subdriver for the Samsung pin controller driver
Improvements:
- Output enable (OEN) support in the Renesas RZG2L driver
- Properly support bias pull up/down in the pinctrl-single driver
- Move over all GPIO portions using generic MMIO GPIO to the new
generic GPIO chip management which has a nice and separate API
- Proper DT bindings for some older Broadcom SoCs
- External GPIO (EGPIO) support in the Qualcomm SM8250
Deleted code:
- Dropped the now unused Samsung S3C24xx drivers"

Pull spi updates from Mark Brown:
"There's one big core change in this release, Jonas Gorski has
addressed the issues with multiple chip selects which makes things
more robust and stable. Otherwise there's quite a bit of driver work,
as well as some new drivers several existing drivers have had quite a
bit of work done on them.
Possibly the most interesting thing is the VirtIO driver, this is
apparently useful for some automotive applications which want to keep
as small and robust a host system as they can, moving less critical
functionality into guests.
- James Clark has done some substantial updates on the Freescale DSPI
driver, porting in code from the BSP and building onm top of that
to fix some bugs and increase performance
- Jonas Gorski has fixed the issues with handling multple chip
selects, making things more robust and scalable
- Support for higher performance modes in the NXP FSPI driver from
Haibo Chen
- Removal of the obsolete S3C2443 driver, the underlying SoC support
has been removed from the kernel
- Support for Amlogic AL113L2, Atmel SAMA7D65 and SAM9x7 and for
VirtIO controllers"
