sched/locking: Add special p->blocked_on==PROXY_WAKING value for proxy return-migration

As we add functionality to proxy execution, we may migrate a
donor task to a runqueue where it can't run due to cpu affinity.
Thus, we must be careful to ensure we return-migrate the task
back to a cpu in its cpumask when it becomes unblocked.

Peter helpfully provided the following example with pictures:
"Suppose we have a ww_mutex cycle:

                  ,-+-* Mutex-1 <-.
        Task-A ---' |             | ,-- Task-B
                    `-> Mutex-2 *-+-'

Where Task-A holds Mutex-1 and tries to acquire Mutex-2, and
where Task-B holds Mutex-2 and tries to acquire Mutex-1.

Then the blocked_on->owner chain will go in circles.

        Task-A  -> Mutex-2
          ^          |
          |          v
        Mutex-1 <- Task-B

We need two things:

 - find_proxy_task() to stop iterating the circle;

 - the woken task to 'unblock' and run, such that it can
   back-off and re-try the transaction.

Now, the current code [without this patch] does:
        __clear_task_blocked_on();
        wake_q_add();

And surely clearing ->blocked_on is sufficient to break the
cycle.

Suppose it is Task-B that is made to back-off, then we have:

  Task-A -> Mutex-2 -> Task-B (no further blocked_on)

and it would attempt to run Task-B. Or worse, it could directly
pick Task-B and run it, without ever getting into
find_proxy_task().

Now, here is a problem because Task-B might not be runnable on
the CPU it is currently on; and because !task_is_blocked() we
don't get into the proxy paths, so nobody is going to fix this
up.

Ideally we would have dequeued Task-B alongside of clearing
->blocked_on, but alas, [the lock ordering prevents us from
getting the task_rq_lock() and] spoils things."

Thus we need more than just a binary concept of the task being
blocked on a mutex or not.

So allow setting blocked_on to PROXY_WAKING as a special value
which specifies the task is no longer blocked, but needs to
be evaluated for return migration *before* it can be run.

This will then be used in a later patch to handle proxy
return-migration.

sched: Fix potentially missing balancing with Proxy Exec

K Prateek pointed out that with Proxy Exec, we may have cases
where we context switch in __schedule(), while the donor remains
the same. This could cause balancing issues, since the
put_prev_set_next() logic short-cuts if (prev == next). With
proxy-exec prev is the previous donor, and next is the next
donor. Should the donor remain the same, but different tasks are
picked to actually run, the shortcut will have avoided enqueuing
the sched class balance callback.

So, if we are context switching, add logic to catch the
same-donor case, and trigger the put_prev/set_next calls to
ensure the balance callbacks get enqueued.

8 weeks agosched: Make class_schedulers avoid pushing current, and get rid of proxy_tag_curr()
John Stultz [Tue, 24 Mar 2026 19:13:16 +0000 (19:13 +0000)] 
sched: Make class_schedulers avoid pushing current, and get rid of proxy_tag_curr()

With proxy-execution, the scheduler selects the donor, but for
blocked donors, we end up running the lock owner.

This caused some complexity, because the class schedulers make
sure to remove the task they pick from their pushable task
lists, which prevents the donor from being migrated, but there
wasn't then anything to prevent rq->curr from being migrated
if rq->curr != rq->donor.

This was sort of hacked around by calling proxy_tag_curr() on
the rq->curr task if we were running something other then the
donor. proxy_tag_curr() did a dequeue/enqueue pair on the
rq->curr task, allowing the class schedulers to remove it from
their pushable list.

The dequeue/enqueue pair was wasteful, and additonally K Prateek
highlighted that we didn't properly undo things when we stopped
proxying, leaving the lock owner off the pushable list.

After some alternative approaches were considered, Peter
suggested just having the RT/DL classes just avoid migrating
when task_on_cpu().

So rework pick_next_pushable_dl_task() and the rt
pick_next_pushable_task() functions so that they skip over the
first pushable task if it is on_cpu.

Then just drop all of the proxy_tag_curr() logic.

sched/fair: Fix zero_vruntime tracking fix

John reported that stress-ng-yield could make his machine unhappy and
managed to bisect it to commit b3d99f43c72b ("sched/fair: Fix
zero_vruntime tracking").

The combination of yield and that commit was specific enough to
hypothesize the following scenario:

Suppose we have 2 runnable tasks, both doing yield. Then one will be
eligible and one will not be, because the average position must be in
between these two entities.

Therefore, the runnable task will be eligible, and be promoted a full
slice (all the tasks do is yield after all). This causes it to jump over
the other task and now the other task is eligible and current is no
longer. So we schedule.

Since we are runnable, there is no {de,en}queue. All we have is the
__{en,de}queue_entity() from {put_prev,set_next}_task(). But per the
fingered commit, those two no longer move zero_vruntime.

All that moves zero_vruntime are tick and full {de,en}queue.

This means, that if the two tasks playing leapfrog can reach the
critical speed to reach the overflow point inside one tick's worth of
time, we're up a creek.

Additionally, when multiple cgroups are involved, there is no guarantee
the tick will in fact hit every cgroup in a timely manner. Statistically
speaking it will, but that same statistics does not rule out the
possibility of one cgroup not getting a tick for a significant amount of
time -- however unlikely.

Therefore, just like with the yield() case, force an update at the end
of every slice. This ensures the update is never more than a single
slice behind and the whole thing is within 2 lag bounds as per the
comment on entity_key().

   reaches it via core dump writes to 9P filesystems. Add ITER_KVEC
   handling following the same pattern as the existing ITER_BVEC code.

 - Fix a NULL pointer dereference in the netfs unbuffered write retry
   path when the filesystem (e.g., 9P) doesn't set the prepare_write
   operation.

 - Clear I_DIRTY_TIME in sync_lazytime for filesystems implementing
  ->sync_lazytime. Without this the flag stays set and may cause
   additional unnecessary calls during inode deactivation.

 - Increase tmpfs size in mount_setattr selftests. A recent commit
   bumped the ext4 image size to 2 GB but didn't adjust the tmpfs
   backing store, so mkfs.ext4 fails with ENOSPC writing metadata.

 - Fix an invalid folio access in iomap when i_blkbits matches the folio
   size but differs from the I/O granularity. The cur_folio pointer
   would not get invalidated and iomap_read_end() would still be called
   on it despite the IO helper owning it.

 - Fix hash_name() docstring.

 - Fix read abandonment during netfs retry where the subreq variable
   used for abandonment could be uninitialized on the first pass or
   point to a deleted subrequest on later passes.

 - Don't block sync for filesystems with no data integrity guarantees.
   Add a SB_I_NO_DATA_INTEGRITY superblock flag replacing the per-inode
   AS_NO_DATA_INTEGRITY mapping flag so sync kicks off writeback but
   doesn't wait for flusher threads. This fixes a suspend-to-RAM hang on
   fuse-overlayfs where the flusher thread blocks when the fuse daemon
   is frozen.

 - Fix a lockdep splat in iomap when reads fail. iomap_read_end_io()
   invokes fserror_report() which calls igrab() taking i_lock in hardirq
   context while i_lock is normally held with interrupts enabled. Kick
   failed read handling to a workqueue.

   one will fail to be applied and the trigger created will be freed.

2 months agotracing: Drain deferred trigger frees if kthread creation fails
Wesley Atwell [Tue, 24 Mar 2026 22:13:26 +0000 (16:13 -0600)] 
tracing: Drain deferred trigger frees if kthread creation fails

Boot-time trigger registration can fail before the trigger-data cleanup
kthread exists. Deferring those frees until late init is fine, but the
post-boot fallback must still drain the deferred list if kthread
creation never succeeds.

Otherwise, boot-deferred nodes can accumulate on
trigger_data_free_list, later frees fall back to synchronously freeing
only the current object, and the older queued entries are leaked
forever.

To trigger this, add the following to the kernel command line:

  trace_event=sched_switch trace_trigger=sched_switch.traceon,sched_switch.traceon

The second traceon trigger will fail and be freed. This triggers a NULL
pointer dereference and crashes the kernel.

Keep the deferred boot-time behavior, but when kthread creation fails,
drain the whole queued list synchronously. Do the same in the late-init
drain path so queued entries are not stranded there either.

mm/mseal: update VMA end correctly on merge

Previously we stored the end of the current VMA in curr_end, and then upon
iterating to the next VMA updated curr_start to curr_end to advance to the
next VMA.

However, this doesn't take into account the fact that a VMA might be
updated due to a merge by vma_modify_flags(), which can result in curr_end
being stale and thus, upon setting curr_start to curr_end, ending up with
an incorrect curr_start on the next iteration.

Resolve the issue by setting curr_end to vma->vm_end unconditionally to
ensure this value remains updated should this occur.

While we're here, eliminate this entire class of bug by simply setting
const curr_[start/end] to be clamped to the input range and VMAs, which
also happens to simplify the logic.

2 months agomm/pagewalk: fix race between concurrent split and refault

mm/pagewalk: fix race between concurrent split and refault

The splitting of a PUD entry in walk_pud_range() can race with a
concurrent thread refaulting the PUD leaf entry causing it to try walking
a PMD range that has disappeared.

An example and reproduction of this is to try reading numa_maps of a
process while VFIO-PCI is setting up DMA (specifically the
vfio_pin_pages_remote call) on a large BAR for that process.

This will trigger a kernel BUG:

Fix this by validating the PUD entry in walk_pmd_range() using a stable
snapshot (pudp_get()).  If the PUD is not present or is a leaf, retry the

2 months agomm/memory: fix PMD/PUD checks in follow_pfnmap_start()
David Hildenbrand (Arm) [Mon, 23 Mar 2026 20:20:18 +0000 (21:20 +0100)] 
mm/memory: fix PMD/PUD checks in follow_pfnmap_start()

follow_pfnmap_start() suffers from two problems:

(1) We are not re-fetching the pmd/pud after taking the PTL

Therefore, we are not properly stabilizing what the lock actually
protects.  If there is concurrent zapping, we would indicate to the
caller that we found an entry, however, that entry might already have
been invalidated, or contain a different PFN after taking the lock.

Properly use pmdp_get() / pudp_get() after taking the lock.

(2) pmd_leaf() / pud_leaf() are not well defined on non-present entries

pmd_leaf()/pud_leaf() could wrongly trigger on non-present entries.

There is no real guarantee that pmd_leaf()/pud_leaf() returns something
reasonable on non-present entries.  Most architectures indeed either
perform a present check or make it work by smart use of flags.

However, for example loongarch checks the _PAGE_HUGE flag in pmd_leaf(),
and always sets the _PAGE_HUGE flag in __swp_entry_to_pmd().  Whereby
pmd_trans_huge() explicitly checks pmd_present(), pmd_leaf() does not do
that.

Let's check pmd_present()/pud_present() before assuming "the is a present
PMD leaf" when spotting pmd_leaf()/pud_leaf(), like other page table
handling code that traverses user page tables does.

Given that non-present PMD entries are likely rare in VM_IO|VM_PFNMAP, (1)
is likely more relevant than (2).  It is questionable how often (1) would
actually trigger, but let's CC stable to be sure.

This was found by code inspection.

mm/huge_memory: fix folio isn't locked in softleaf_to_folio()

On arm64 server, we found folio that get from migration entry isn't locked
in softleaf_to_folio().  This issue triggers when mTHP splitting and
zap_nonpresent_ptes() races, and the root cause is lack of memory barrier
in softleaf_to_folio().  The race is as follows:

CPU0                                             CPU1

deferred_split_scan()                              zap_nonpresent_ptes()
  lock folio
  split_folio()
    unmap_folio()

      smp_wmb()                                        VM_WARN_ON_ONCE(!folio_test_locked(folio))
      prep_compound_page() for tail pages

In __split_folio_to_order(), smp_wmb() guarantees page flags of tail pages
are visible before the tail page becomes non-compound.  smp_wmb() should
be paired with smp_rmb() in softleaf_to_folio(), which is missed.  As a
result, if zap_nonpresent_ptes() accesses migration entry that stores tail
pfn, softleaf_to_folio() may see the updated compound_head of tail page
before page->flags.

This issue will trigger VM_WARN_ON_ONCE() in pfn_swap_entry_folio()
because of the race between folio split and zap_nonpresent_ptes()
leading to a folio incorrectly undergoing modification without a folio
lock being held.

This is a BUG_ON() before commit 93976a20345b ("mm: eliminate further
swapops predicates"), which in merged in v6.19-rc1.

To fix it, add missing smp_rmb() if the softleaf entry is migration entry
in softleaf_to_folio() and softleaf_to_page().

[2] https://sashiko.dev/#/patchset/20260319094545.19291-1-qiang.zhang%40linux.dev

The concern was valid, but it had nothing to do with the patch[1].
One of the problems with Sashiko in its current (early) form is that
it will detect pre-existing issues and report it as a problem with the
patch that it is reviewing.

In practice, it would be hard to hit deliberately (unless you are a
malicious syzkaller fuzzer), since it would involve mounting the file
system with -o discard, and then deleting a large number of files,

Theodore Ts'o [Thu, 26 Mar 2026 04:58:34 +0000 (00:58 -0400)] 
ext4: handle wraparound when searching for blocks for indirect mapped blocks

Commit 4865c768b563 ("ext4: always allocate blocks only from groups
inode can use") restricts what blocks will be allocated for indirect
block based files to block numbers that fit within 32-bit block
numbers.

However, when using a review bot running on the latest Gemini LLM to
check this commit when backporting into an LTS based kernel, it raised
this concern:

   If ac->ac_g_ex.fe_group is >= ngroups (for instance, if the goal
   group was populated via stream allocation from s_mb_last_groups),
   then start will be >= ngroups.

   Does this allow allocating blocks beyond the 32-bit limit for
   indirect block mapped files? The commit message mentions that
   ext4_mb_scan_groups_linear() takes care to not select unsupported
   groups. However, its loop uses group = *start, and the very first
   iteration will call ext4_mb_scan_group() with this unsupported
   group because next_linear_group() is only called at the end of the
   iteration.

After reviewing the code paths involved and considering the LLM
review, I determined that this can happen when there is a file system
where some files/directories are extent-mapped and others are
indirect-block mapped.  To address this, add a safety clamp in
ext4_mb_scan_groups().

2 months agoext4: skip split extent recovery on corruption
hongao [Tue, 24 Mar 2026 01:58:15 +0000 (09:58 +0800)] 
ext4: skip split extent recovery on corruption

ext4_split_extent_at() retries after ext4_ext_insert_extent() fails by
refinding the original extent and restoring its length. That recovery is
only safe for transient resource failures such as -ENOSPC, -EDQUOT, and
-ENOMEM.

When ext4_ext_insert_extent() fails because the extent tree is already
corrupted, ext4_find_extent() can return a leaf path without p_ext.
ext4_split_extent_at() then dereferences path[depth].p_ext while trying to
fix up the original extent length, causing a NULL pointer dereference while
handling a pre-existing filesystem corruption.

Do not enter the recovery path for corruption errors, and validate p_ext
after refinding the extent before touching it. This keeps the recovery path
limited to cases it can actually repair and turns the syzbot-triggered crash
into a proper corruption report.

ext4: fix iloc.bh leak in ext4_fc_replay_inode() error paths

 - ext4_handle_dirty_metadata() failure

Fix this by introducing an 'out_brelse' label placed just before

ext4: fix use-after-free in update_super_work when racing with umount

Commit b98535d09179 ("ext4: fix bug_on in start_this_handle during umount

to prevent new error work from being queued via /proc/fs/ext4/xx/mb_groups
reads during unmount. However, this introduced a use-after-free because
update_super_work calls ext4_notify_error_sysfs() -> sysfs_notify() which
accesses the kobject's kernfs_node after it has been freed by kobject_del()
in ext4_unregister_sysfs():

  update_super_work                ext4_put_super
  -----------------                --------------
                                   ext4_unregister_sysfs(sb)
                                     kobject_del(&sbi->s_kobj)
                                       __kobject_del()
                                         sysfs_remove_dir()

      kn = kobj->sd              // stale pointer

                                   ext4_journal_destroy()
                                     flush_work(&sbi->s_sb_upd_work)

Instead of reordering the teardown sequence, fix this by making
ext4_notify_error_sysfs() detect that sysfs has already been torn down
by checking s_kobj.state_in_sysfs, and skipping the sysfs_notify() call
in that case. A dedicated mutex (s_error_notify_mutex) serializes
ext4_notify_error_sysfs() against kobject_del() in ext4_unregister_sysfs()
to prevent TOCTOU races where the kobject could be deleted between the
state_in_sysfs check and the sysfs_notify() call.

2 months agoext4: avoid infinite loops caused by residual data
Edward Adam Davis [Fri, 6 Mar 2026 01:31:58 +0000 (09:31 +0800)] 
ext4: avoid infinite loops caused by residual data

On the mkdir/mknod path, when mapping logical blocks to physical blocks,
if inserting a new extent into the extent tree fails (in this example,
because the file system disabled the huge file feature when marking the
inode as dirty), ext4_ext_map_blocks() only calls ext4_free_blocks() to
reclaim the physical block without deleting the corresponding data in
the extent tree. This causes subsequent mkdir operations to reference
the previously reclaimed physical block number again, even though this
physical block is already being used by the xattr block. Therefore, a
situation arises where both the directory and xattr are using the same
buffer head block in memory simultaneously.

The above causes ext4_xattr_block_set() to enter an infinite loop about
"inserted" and cannot release the inode lock, ultimately leading to the
143s blocking problem mentioned in [1].

If the metadata is corrupted, then trying to remove some extent space
can do even more harm. Also in case EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_DELALLOC_RESERVE
was passed, remove space wrongly update quota information.
Jan Kara suggests distinguishing between two cases:

1) The error is ENOSPC or EDQUOT - in this case the filesystem is fully
consistent and we must maintain its consistency including all the
accounting. However these errors can happen only early before we've
inserted the extent into the extent tree. So current code works correctly
for this case.

2) Some other error - this means metadata is corrupted. We should strive to
do as few modifications as possible to limit damage. So I'd just skip
freeing of allocated blocks.

2 months agoext4: validate p_idx bounds in ext4_ext_correct_indexes
Tejas Bharambe [Wed, 4 Mar 2026 07:14:34 +0000 (23:14 -0800)] 
ext4: validate p_idx bounds in ext4_ext_correct_indexes

ext4_ext_correct_indexes() walks up the extent tree correcting
index entries when the first extent in a leaf is modified. Before
accessing path[k].p_idx->ei_block, there is no validation that
p_idx falls within the valid range of index entries for that
level.

If the on-disk extent header contains a corrupted or crafted
eh_entries value, p_idx can point past the end of the allocated
buffer, causing a slab-out-of-bounds read.

Fix this by validating path[k].p_idx against EXT_LAST_INDEX() at
both access sites: before the while loop and inside it. Return
-EFSCORRUPTED if the index pointer is out of range, consistent
with how other bounds violations are handled in the ext4 extent
tree code.

ext4: test if inode's all dirty pages are submitted to disk

The commit aa373cf55099 ("writeback: stop background/kupdate works from
livelocking other works") introduced an issue where unmounting a filesystem
in a multi-logical-partition scenario could lead to batch file data loss.
This problem was not fixed until the commit d92109891f21 ("fs/writeback:
bail out if there is no more inodes for IO and queued once"). It took
considerable time to identify the root cause. Additionally, in actual
production environments, we frequently encountered file data loss after
normal system reboots. Therefore, we are adding a check in the inode
release flow to verify whether all dirty pages have been flushed to disk,
in order to determine whether the data loss is caused by a logic issue in
the filesystem code.

is specified, i.e., when the function is called in the control flow of
creating a new inode. This aligns the number of jbd2 credits set_handle
checks for with the number allocated for creating a new inode.

ext4_set_context must not be called with a non-null handle (fs_data) if
fscrypt context xattr is not guaranteed to not exist yet. The only other
usage of this function currently is when handling the ioctl
FS_IOC_SET_ENCRYPTION_POLICY, which calls it with fs_data=NULL.

2 months agoext4: convert inline data to extents when truncate exceeds inline size
Deepanshu Kartikey [Sat, 7 Feb 2026 04:36:07 +0000 (10:06 +0530)] 
ext4: convert inline data to extents when truncate exceeds inline size

Add a check in ext4_setattr() to convert files from inline data storage
to extent-based storage when truncate() grows the file size beyond the
inline capacity. This prevents the filesystem from entering an
inconsistent state where the inline data flag is set but the file size
exceeds what can be stored inline.

Without this fix, the following sequence causes a kernel BUG_ON():

1. Mount filesystem with inode that has inline flag set and small size
2. truncate(file, 50MB) - grows size but inline flag remains set
3. sendfile() attempts to write data
4. ext4_write_inline_data() hits BUG_ON(write_size > inline_capacity)

The crash occurs because ext4_write_inline_data() expects inline storage
to accommodate the write, but the actual inline capacity (~60 bytes for
i_block + ~96 bytes for xattrs) is far smaller than the file size and
write request.

The fix checks if the new size from setattr exceeds the inode's actual
inline capacity (EXT4_I(inode)->i_inline_size) and converts the file to
extent-based storage before proceeding with the size change.

This addresses the root cause by ensuring the inline data flag and file
size remain consistent during truncate operations.

2 months agoext4: fix stale xarray tags after writeback
Jan Kara [Thu, 5 Feb 2026 09:22:24 +0000 (10:22 +0100)] 
ext4: fix stale xarray tags after writeback

There are cases where ext4_bio_write_page() gets called for a page which
has no buffers to submit. This happens e.g. when the part of the file is
actually a hole, when we cannot allocate blocks due to being called from
jbd2, or in data=journal mode when checkpointing writes the buffers
earlier. In these cases we just return from ext4_bio_write_page()
however if the page didn't need redirtying, we will leave stale DIRTY
and/or TOWRITE tags in xarray because those get cleared only in
__folio_start_writeback(). As a result we can leave these tags set in
mappings even after a final sync on filesystem that's getting remounted
read-only or that's being frozen. Various assertions can then get upset
when writeback is started on such filesystems (Gerald reported assertion
in ext4_journal_check_start() firing).

Fix the problem by cycling the page through writeback state even if we
decide nothing needs to be written for it so that xarray tags get
properly updated. This is slightly silly (we could update the xarray
tags directly) but I don't think a special helper messing with xarray
tags is really worth it in this relatively rare corner case.

KVM: x86/mmu: Only WARN in direct MMUs when overwriting shadow-present SPTE

Adjust KVM's sanity check against overwriting a shadow-present SPTE with a
another SPTE with a different target PFN to only apply to direct MMUs,
i.e. only to MMUs without shadowed gPTEs.  While it's impossible for KVM
to overwrite a shadow-present SPTE in response to a guest write, writes
from outside the scope of KVM, e.g. from host userspace, aren't detected
by KVM's write tracking and so can break KVM's shadow paging rules.

Sean Christopherson [Fri, 6 Mar 2026 01:28:04 +0000 (17:28 -0800)] 
KVM: x86/mmu: Drop/zap existing present SPTE even when creating an MMIO SPTE

When installing an emulated MMIO SPTE, do so *after* dropping/zapping the
existing SPTE (if it's shadow-present).  While commit a54aa15c6bda3 was
right about it being impossible to convert a shadow-present SPTE to an
MMIO SPTE due to a _guest_ write, it failed to account for writes to guest
memory that are outside the scope of KVM.

E.g. if host userspace modifies a shadowed gPTE to switch from a memslot
to emulted MMIO and then the guest hits a relevant page fault, KVM will
install the MMIO SPTE without first zapping the shadow-present SPTE.
