the node pointer when it's already hashed. This avoids a double
unload_nls() on mount failure (suggested by Shardul Bankar)
- set inode's mode as regular file for system inodes (Tetsuo Handa)

"User visible changes, feature updates:
- when using block size > page size, enable direct IO
- fallback to buffered IO if the data profile has duplication,
workaround to avoid checksum mismatches on block group profiles
with redundancy, real direct IO is possible on single or RAID0
- redo export of zoned statistics, moved from sysfs to
/proc/pid/mountstats due to size limitations of the former
Experimental features:
- remove offload checksum tunable, intended to find best way to do it
but since we've switched to offload to thread for everything we
don't need it anymore
- initial support for remap-tree feature, a translation layer of
logical block addresses that allow changes without moving/rewriting
blocks to do eg. relocation, or other changes that require COW
Notable fixes:
- automatic removal of accidentally leftover chunks when
free-space-tree is enabled since mkfs.btrfs v6.16.1
- zoned mode:
- do not try to append to conventional zones when RAID is mixing
zoned and conventional drives
- fixup write pointers when mixing zoned and conventional on
DUP/RAID* profiles
- when using squota, relax deletion rules for qgroups with 0 members
to allow easier recovery from accounting bugs, also add more checks
to detect bad accounting
- fix periodic reclaim scanning, properly check boundary conditions
not to trigger it unexpectedly or miss the time to run it
- trim:
- continue after first error
- change reporting to the first detected error
- add more cancellation points
- reduce contention of big device lock that can block other
operations when there's lots of trimmed space
- when chunk allocation is forced (needs experimental build) fix
transaction abort when unexpected space layout is detected
Core:
- switch to crypto library API for checksumming, removed module
dependencies, pointer indirections, etc.
- error handling improvements
- adjust how and where transaction commit or abort are done and are
maybe not necessary
- minor compression optimization to skip single block ranges
- improve how compression folios are handled
- new and updated selftests

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains a mix of VFS cleanups, performance improvements, API
fixes, documentation, and a deprecation notice.
Scalability and performance:
- Rework pid allocation to only take pidmap_lock once instead of
twice during alloc_pid(), improving thread creation/teardown
throughput by 10-16% depending on false-sharing luck. Pad the
namespace refcount to reduce false-sharing
- Track file lock presence via a flag in ->i_opflags instead of
reading ->i_flctx, avoiding false-sharing with ->i_readcount on
open/close hot paths. Measured 4-16% improvement on 24-core
open-in-a-loop benchmarks
- Use a consume fence in locks_inode_context() to match the
store-release/load-consume idiom, eliminating a hardware fence on
some architectures
- Annotate cdev_lock with __cacheline_aligned_in_smp to prevent
false-sharing
- Remove a redundant DCACHE_MANAGED_DENTRY check in
__follow_mount_rcu() that never fires since the caller already
verifies it, eliminating a 100% mispredicted branch
- Fix a 100% mispredicted likely() in devcgroup_inode_permission()
that became wrong after a prior code reorder
Bug fixes and correctness:
- Make insert_inode_locked() wait for inode destruction instead of
skipping, fixing a corner case where two matching inodes could
exist in the hash
- Move f_mode initialization before file_ref_init() in alloc_file()
to respect the SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU ordering contract
- Add a WARN_ON_ONCE guard in try_to_free_buffers() for folios with
no buffers attached, preventing a null pointer dereference when
AS_RELEASE_ALWAYS is set but no release_folio op exists
- Fix select restart_block to store end_time as timespec64, avoiding
truncation of tv_sec on 32-bit architectures
- Make dump_inode() use get_kernel_nofault() to safely access inode
and superblock fields, matching the dump_mapping() pattern
API modernization:
- Make posix_acl_to_xattr() allocate the buffer internally since
every single caller was doing it anyway. Reduces boilerplate and
unnecessary error checking across ~15 filesystems
- Replace deprecated simple_strtoul() with kstrtoul() for the
ihash_entries, dhash_entries, mhash_entries, and mphash_entries
boot parameters, adding proper error handling
- Convert chardev code to use guard(mutex) and __free(kfree) cleanup
patterns
- Replace min_t() with min() or umin() in VFS code to avoid silently
truncating unsigned long to unsigned int
- Gate LOOKUP_RCU assertions behind CONFIG_DEBUG_VFS since callers
already check the flag
Deprecation:
- Begin deprecating legacy BSD process accounting (acct(2)). The
interface has numerous footguns and better alternatives exist
(eBPF)
Documentation:
- Fix and complete kernel-doc for struct export_operations, removing
duplicated documentation between ReST and source
- Fix kernel-doc warnings for __start_dirop() and ilookup5_nowait()

Pull vfs mount updates from Christian Brauner:
- statmount: accept fd as a parameter
Extend struct mnt_id_req with a file descriptor field and a new
STATMOUNT_BY_FD flag. When set, statmount() returns mount information
for the mount the fd resides on — including detached mounts
(unmounted via umount2(MNT_DETACH)).
For detached mounts the STATMOUNT_MNT_POINT and STATMOUNT_MNT_NS_ID
mask bits are cleared since neither is meaningful. The capability
check is skipped for STATMOUNT_BY_FD since holding an fd already
implies prior access to the mount and equivalent information is
available through fstatfs() and /proc/pid/mountinfo without
privilege. Includes comprehensive selftests covering both attached
and detached mount cases.
- fs: Remove internal old mount API code (1 patch)
Now that every in-tree filesystem has been converted to the new
mount API, remove all the legacy shim code in fs_context.c that
handled unconverted filesystems. This deletes ~280 lines including
legacy_init_fs_context(), the legacy_fs_context struct, and
associated wrappers. The mount(2) syscall path for userspace remains
untouched. Documentation references to the legacy callbacks are
cleaned up.
- mount: add OPEN_TREE_NAMESPACE to open_tree()
Container runtimes currently use CLONE_NEWNS to copy the caller's
entire mount namespace — only to then pivot_root() and recursively
unmount everything they just copied. With large mount tables and
thousands of parallel container launches this creates significant
contention on the namespace semaphore.
OPEN_TREE_NAMESPACE copies only the specified mount tree (like
OPEN_TREE_CLONE) but returns a mount namespace fd instead of a
detached mount fd. The new namespace contains the copied tree mounted
on top of a clone of the real rootfs.
This functions as a combined unshare(CLONE_NEWNS) + pivot_root() in a
single syscall. Works with user namespaces: an unshare(CLONE_NEWUSER)
followed by OPEN_TREE_NAMESPACE creates a mount namespace owned by
the new user namespace. Mount namespace file mounts are excluded from
the copy to prevent cycles. Includes ~1000 lines of selftests"

"Add a completely catatonic minimal pseudo filesystem called "nullfs"
and make pivot_root() work in the initramfs.
Currently pivot_root() does not work on the real rootfs because it
cannot be unmounted. Userspace has to recursively delete initramfs
contents manually before continuing boot, using the fragile
switch_root sequence (overmount + chroot).
Add nullfs, a minimal immutable filesystem that serves as the true
root of the mount hierarchy. The mutable rootfs (tmpfs/ramfs) is
mounted on top of it. This allows userspace to simply:
without the traditional switch_root workarounds. systemd already
handles this correctly. It tries pivot_root() first and falls back
to MS_MOVE only when that fails.
This also means rootfs mounts in unprivileged namespaces no longer
need MNT_LOCKED, since the immutable nullfs guarantees nothing can be
revealed by unmounting the covering mount.
nullfs is a single-instance filesystem (get_tree_single()) marked
SB_NOUSER | SB_I_NOEXEC | SB_I_NODEV with an immutable empty root
directory. This means sooner or later it can be used to overmount
other directories to hide their contents without any additional
protection needed.
We enable it unconditionally. If we see any real regression we'll
hide it behind a boot option.
nullfs has extensions beyond this in the future. It will serve as a

Filesystems currently have no standard mechanism for reporting

Errors are queued via mempools and queue_work to avoid holding
filesystem locks in the notification path; unmount waits for pending

filesystem drivers respond to file I/O errors themselves (to be used

Pull selinux updates from Paul Moore:
- Add support for SELinux based access control of BPF tokens
We worked with the BPF devs to add the necessary LSM hooks when the
BPF token code was first introduced, but it took us a bit longer to
add the SELinux wiring and support.
In order to preserve existing token-unaware SELinux policies, the new
code is gated by the new "bpf_token_perms" policy capability.
Additional details regarding the new permissions, and behaviors can
be found in the associated commit.
- Remove a BUG() from the SELinux capability code
We now perform a similar check during compile time so we can safely
remove the BUG() call.

hfsplus: avoid double unload_nls() on mount failure
The recent commit "hfsplus: ensure sb->s_fs_info is always cleaned up"
[1] introduced a custom ->kill_sb() handler (hfsplus_kill_super) that
cleans up the s_fs_info structure (including the NLS table) on
superblock destruction.
However, the error handling path in hfsplus_fill_super() still calls
unload_nls() before returning an error. Since the VFS layer calls
->kill_sb() when fill_super fails, this results in unload_nls() being
called twice for the same sbi->nls pointer: once in hfsplus_fill_super()
and again in hfsplus_kill_super() (via delayed_free).
Remove the explicit unload_nls() call from the error path in
hfsplus_fill_super() to rely solely on the cleanup in ->kill_sb().

x86/vmware: Fix hypercall clobbers

BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: 0000000040003e54
#PF: supervisor write access in kernel mode
#PF: error_code(0x0002) - not-present page
Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS edk2-20251119-3.fc43 11/19/2025

Call Trace:
vmmouse_report_events+0x13e/0x1b0
psmouse_handle_byte+0x15/0x60
ps2_interrupt+0x8a/0xd0
...
because the QEMU VMware mouse emulation is buggy, and clears the top 32
bits of %rdi that the kernel kept a pointer in.
The QEMU vmmouse driver saves and restores the register state in a
"uint32_t data[6];" and as a result restores the state with the high
bits all cleared.
RDI originally contained the value of a valid kernel stack address
(0xff5eeb3240003e54). After the vmware hypercall it now contains
0x40003e54, and we get a page fault as a result when it is dereferenced.
The proper fix would be in QEMU, but this works around the issue in the
kernel to keep old setups working, when old kernels had not happened to
keep any state in %rdi over the hypercall.
In theory this same issue exists for all the hypercalls in the vmmouse
driver; in practice it has only been seen with vmware_hypercall3() and
vmware_hypercall4(). For now, just mark RDI/RSI as clobbered for those
two calls. This should have a minimal effect on code generation overall
as it should be rare for the compiler to want to make RDI/RSI live
across hypercalls.

Pull tracing fix from Steven Rostedt:
- Fix event format field alignments for 32 bit architectures
The fields in the event format files are used to parse the raw binary
buffer data by applications. If they are incorrect, then the
application produces garbage.
On 32 bit architectures, the function graph 64bit calltime and
rettime were off by 4bytes. That's because the actual fields are in a
packed structure but the macros used by the ftrace events did not
mark them as packed, and instead, gave them their natural alignment
which made their offsets off by 4 bytes.
There are macros to have a packed field within an embedded structure
of an event, but there's no macro for normal fields within a packed
structure of the event. The macro __field_packed() was used for the
packed embedded structure field. Rename that to __field_desc_packed()
(to match the non-packed embedded field macro __field_desc()), and
make __field_packed() for fields that are in a packed event structure
(which matches the unpacked __field() macro).
Switch the calltime and rettime fields of the function graph event to
use the new __field_packed() and this makes the offsets correct.

functionfs: use spinlock for FFS_DEACTIVATED/FFS_CLOSING transitions
When all files are closed, functionfs needs ffs_data_reset() to be
done before any further opens are allowed.
During that time we have ffs->state set to FFS_CLOSING; that makes
->open() fail with -EBUSY. Once ffs_data_reset() is done, it
switches state (to FFS_READ_DESCRIPTORS) indicating that opening
that thing is allowed again. There's a couple of additional twists:
* mounting with -o no_disconnect delays ffs_data_reset()
from doing that at the final ->release() to the first subsequent
open(). That's indicated by ffs->state set to FFS_DEACTIVATED;
if open() sees that, it immediately switches to FFS_CLOSING and
proceeds with doing ffs_data_reset() before returning to userland.
* a couple of usb callbacks need to force the delayed
transition; unfortunately, they are done in locking environment
that does not allow blocking and ffs_data_reset() can block.
As the result, if these callbacks see FFS_DEACTIVATED, they change
state to FFS_CLOSING and use schedule_work() to get ffs_data_reset()
executed asynchronously.
Unfortunately, the locking is rather insufficient. A fix attempted
in e5bf5ee26663 ("functionfs: fix the open/removal races") had closed
a bunch of UAF, but it didn't do anything to the callbacks, lacked
barriers in transition from FFS_CLOSING to FFS_READ_DESCRIPTORS
_and_ it had been too heavy-handed in open()/open() serialization -
I've used ffs->mutex for that, and it's being held over actual IO on
ep0, complete with copy_from_user(), etc.
Even more unfortunately, the userland side is apparently racy enough
to have the resulting timing changes (no failures, just a delayed
return of open(2)) disrupt the things quite badly. Userland bugs
or not, it's a clear regression that needs to be dealt with.
Solution is to use a spinlock for serializing these state checks and
transitions - unlike ffs->mutex it can be taken in these callbacks
and it doesn't disrupt the timings in open().
We could introduce a new spinlock, but it's easier to use the one
that is already there (ffs->eps_lock) instead - the locking
environment is safe for it in all affected places.
Since now it is held over all places that alter or check the
open count (ffs->opened), there's no need to keep that atomic_t -
int would serve just fine and it's simpler that way.

ipv6: Fix ECMP sibling count mismatch when clearing RTF_ADDRCONF
syzbot reported a kernel BUG in fib6_add_rt2node() when adding an IPv6
route. [0]
Commit f72514b3c569 ("ipv6: clear RA flags when adding a static
route") introduced logic to clear RTF_ADDRCONF from existing routes
when a static route with the same nexthop is added. However, this
causes a problem when the existing route has a gateway.
When RTF_ADDRCONF is cleared from a route that has a gateway, that
route becomes eligible for ECMP, i.e. rt6_qualify_for_ecmp() returns
true. The issue is that this route was never added to the
fib6_siblings list.
This leads to a mismatch between the following counts:
- The sibling count computed by iterating fib6_next chain, which
includes the newly ECMP-eligible route
- The actual siblings in fib6_siblings list, which does not include
that route
When a subsequent ECMP route is added, fib6_add_rt2node() hits
BUG_ON(sibling->fib6_nsiblings != rt->fib6_nsiblings) because the
counts don't match.
Fix this by only clearing RTF_ADDRCONF when the existing route does
not have a gateway. Routes without a gateway cannot qualify for ECMP
anyway (rt6_qualify_for_ecmp() requires fib_nh_gw_family), so clearing
RTF_ADDRCONF on them is safe and matches the original intent of the
commit.

as there are reports of them causing issues with unmounting. As we're
close to the 6.19 kernel release and the original author hasn't taken a
closer look at this yet, revert them for release.
This is caused an extra file->klp sanity check which was added by commit 164c9201e1da ("objtool: Add base objtool support for livepatch
modules"). That check was intended to ensure that livepatch modules
built with klp-build always have full access to their static call keys.
However, it failed to account for the fact that manually built livepatch
modules (i.e., not built with klp-build) might need access to unexported
static call keys, for which read-only access is typically allowed for
modules.
While the livepatch-shadow-fix1 module doesn't explicitly use any static
calls, it does have a memory allocation, which can cause
CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_DEBUG to insert a WARN() call. And WARN() is
now an unexported static call as of commit 860238af7a33 ("x86_64/bug:

Fix it by removing the overzealous file->klp check, restoring the
original behavior for manually built livepatch modules.

livepatch: Fix having __klp_objects relics in non-livepatch modules
The linker script scripts/module.lds.S specifies that all input
__klp_objects sections should be consolidated into an output section of
the same name, and start/stop symbols should be created to enable
scripts/livepatch/init.c to locate this data.
This start/stop pattern is not ideal for modules because the symbols are
created even if no __klp_objects input sections are present.
Consequently, a dummy __klp_objects section also appears in the
resulting module. This unnecessarily pollutes non-livepatch modules.
Instead, since modules are relocatable files, the usual method for
locating consolidated data in a module is to read its section table.
This approach avoids the aforementioned problem.
The klp_modinfo already stores a copy of the entire section table with
the final addresses. Introduce a helper function that
scripts/livepatch/init.c can call to obtain the location of the
__klp_objects section from this data.

tracing: Fix ftrace event field alignments
The fields of ftrace specific events (events used to save ftrace internal
events like function traces and trace_printk) are generated similarly to
how normal trace event fields are generated. That is, the fields are added
to a trace_events_fields array that saves the name, offset, size,
alignment and signness of the field. It is used to produce the output in
the format file in tracefs so that tooling knows how to parse the binary
data of the trace events.
The issue is that some of the ftrace event structures are packed. The
function graph exit event structures are one of them. The 64 bit calltime
and rettime fields end up 4 byte aligned, but the algorithm to show to
userspace shows them as 8 byte aligned.
The macros that create the ftrace events has one for embedded structure
fields. There's two macros for theses fields:
__field_desc() and __field_packed()
The difference of the latter macro is that it treats the field as packed.
Rename that field to __field_desc_packed() and create replace the
__field_packed() to be a normal field that is packed and have the calltime
and rettime use those.
This showed up on 32bit architectures for function graph time fields. It
had:
~# cat /sys/kernel/tracing/events/ftrace/funcgraph_exit/format
[..]
field:unsigned long func; offset:8; size:4; signed:0;
field:unsigned int depth; offset:12; size:4; signed:0;
field:unsigned int overrun; offset:16; size:4; signed:0;
field:unsigned long long calltime; offset:24; size:8; signed:0;
field:unsigned long long rettime; offset:32; size:8; signed:0;
Notice that overrun is at offset 16 with size 4, where in the structure
calltime is at offset 20 (16 + 4), but it shows the offset at 24. That's
because it used the alignment of unsigned long long when used as a
declaration and not as a member of a structure where it would be aligned
by word size (in this case 4).
By using the proper structure alignment, the format has it at the correct
offset:
~# cat /sys/kernel/tracing/events/ftrace/funcgraph_exit/format

An example will be USB wakeup on i.MX8MP. PHY device '382f0040.usb-phy'
is attached to power domain 'hsioblk-usb-phy2' which is spawned by hsio
block control. A virtual power domain device 'genpd:3:32f10000.blk-ctrl'
is created to build connection with 'hsioblk-usb-phy2' and it depends on
GPC power domain 'usb-otg2'. If device '382f0040.usb-phy' enable wakeup,
only power domain 'hsioblk-usb-phy2' keeps on during system suspend,
power domain 'usb-otg2' is off all the time. So the wakeup event can't
happen.
In order to further establish a connection between the power domains
related to GPC and block control during system suspend, register a genpd
power on/off notifier for the power_dev. This allows us to prevent the GPC
power domain from being powered off, in case the block control power
domain is kept on to serve system wakeup.

drm/bridge: imx8mp-hdmi-pai: enable PM runtime
There is an audio channel shift issue with multi channel case - the
channel order is correct for the first run, but the channel order is
shifted for the second run. The fix method is to reset the PAI interface
at the end of playback.
The reset can be handled by PM runtime, so enable PM runtime.

netfilter: nf_tables: fix inverted genmask check in nft_map_catchall_activate()
nft_map_catchall_activate() has an inverted element activity check
compared to its non-catchall counterpart nft_mapelem_activate() and
compared to what is logically required.
nft_map_catchall_activate() is called from the abort path to re-activate
catchall map elements that were deactivated during a failed transaction.
It should skip elements that are already active (they don't need
re-activation) and process elements that are inactive (they need to be
restored). Instead, the current code does the opposite: it skips inactive
elements and processes active ones.
Compare the non-catchall activate callback, which is correct:
nft_mapelem_activate():
if (nft_set_elem_active(ext, iter->genmask))
return 0; /* skip active, process inactive */
With the buggy catchall version:
nft_map_catchall_activate():
if (!nft_set_elem_active(ext, genmask))
continue; /* skip inactive, process active */
The consequence is that when a DELSET operation is aborted,
nft_setelem_data_activate() is never called for the catchall element.
For NFT_GOTO verdict elements, this means nft_data_hold() is never
called to restore the chain->use reference count. Each abort cycle
permanently decrements chain->use. Once chain->use reaches zero,
DELCHAIN succeeds and frees the chain while catchall verdict elements
still reference it, resulting in a use-after-free.
This is exploitable for local privilege escalation from an unprivileged
user via user namespaces + nftables on distributions that enable
CONFIG_USER_NS and CONFIG_NF_TABLES.
Fix by removing the negation so the check matches nft_mapelem_activate():
skip active elements, process inactive ones.

ceph: fix NULL pointer dereference in ceph_mds_auth_match()
The CephFS kernel client has regression starting from 6.18-rc1.
We have issue in ceph_mds_auth_match() if fs_name == NULL:
const char fs_name = mdsc->fsc->mount_options->mds_namespace;
...
if (auth->match.fs_name && strcmp(auth->match.fs_name, fs_name)) {
/ fsname mismatch, try next one */
return 0;
}
Patrick Donnelly suggested that: In summary, we should definitely start
decoding `fs_name` from the MDSMap and do strict authorizations checks
against it. Note that the `-o mds_namespace=foo` should only be used for
selecting the file system to mount and nothing else. It's possible
no mds_namespace is specified but the kernel will mount the only
file system that exists which may have name "foo".
This patch reworks ceph_mdsmap_decode() and namespace_equals() with
the goal of supporting the suggested concept. Now struct ceph_mdsmap
contains m_fs_name field that receives copy of extracted FS name
by ceph_extract_encoded_string(). For the case of "old" CephFS file
systems, it is used "cephfs" name.
[ idryomov: replace redundant %*pE with %s in ceph_mdsmap_decode(),
get rid of a series of strlen() calls in ceph_namespace_match(),
drop changes to namespace_equals() body to avoid treating empty
mds_namespace as equal, drop changes to ceph_mdsc_handle_fsmap()

sched/mmcid: Optimize transitional CIDs when scheduling out
During the investigation of the various transition mode issues
instrumentation revealed that the amount of bitmap operations can be
significantly reduced when a task with a transitional CID schedules out
after the fixup function completed and disabled the transition mode.
At that point the mode is stable and therefore it is not required to drop
the transitional CID back into the pool. As the fixup is complete the
potential exhaustion of the CID pool is not longer possible, so the CID can
be transferred to the scheduling out task or to the CPU depending on the
current ownership mode.
The racy snapshot of mm_cid::mode which contains both the ownership state
and the transition bit is valid because runqueue lock is held and the fixup
function of a concurrent mode switch is serialized.
Assigning the ownership right there not only spares the bitmap access for
dropping the CID it also avoids it when the task is scheduled back in as it
directly hits the fast path in both modes when the CID is within the
optimal range. If it's outside the range the next schedule in will need to
converge so dropping it right away is sensible. In the good case this also
allows to go into the fast path on the next schedule in operation.
With a thread pool benchmark which is configured to cross the mode switch
boundaries frequently this reduces the number of bitmap operations by about
30% and increases the fastpath utilization in the low single digit
percentage range.

sched/mmcid: Drop per CPU CID immediately when switching to per task mode
When a exiting task initiates the switch from per CPU back to per task
mode, it has already dropped its CID and marked itself inactive. But a
leftover from an earlier iteration of the rework then reassigns the per
CPU CID to the exiting task with the transition bit set.
That's wrong as the task is already marked CID inactive, which means it is
inconsistent state. It's harmless because the CID is marked in transit and
therefore dropped back into the pool when the exiting task schedules out
either through preemption or the final schedule().
Simply drop the per CPU CID when the exiting task triggered the transition.
