eventpoll: Fix epoll_wait() report false negative
ep_events_available() checks for available events by looking at
ep->rdllist and ep_is_scanning(). However, this is done without a lock
and can report false negative if ep_start_scan() or ep_done_scan() are
executed by another task concurrently. For example:
_________________________________________________________________________
|ep_start_scan()
| list_splice_init(&ep->rdllist, ...)
ep_events_available() |
!list_empty_careful(&ep->rdllist)|
|| ep_is_scanning(ep) |
| ep_enter_scan(ep)
___________________________________|_____________________________________
In the above examples, ep_events_available() sees no event despite
events being available. In case epoll_wait() is called with timeout=0,
epoll_wait() will wrongly return "no event" to user.
Introduce a sequence lock to resolve this issue.
Measuring the time consumption of 10 million loop iterations doing
epoll_wait(), the following performance drop is observed:
timeout #event before after diff
0ms 0 3727ms 3974ms +6.6%
0ms 1 8099ms 9134ms +13%
1ms 1 13525ms 13586ms +0.45%
Considering the use case of epoll_wait() (wait for events, do something
with the events, repeat), it should only contribute to a small portion of
user's CPU consumption. Therefore this performance drop is not alarming.

selftests/eventpoll: Add test for multiple waiters
Add a test whichs creates 64 threads who all epoll_wait() on the same
eventpoll. The source eventfd is written but never read, therefore all the
threads should always see an EPOLLIN event.
This test fails because of a kernel bug, which will be fixed by a follow-up
commit.
The lockdep WARN was observed by running blktests test case nvme/005 for
tcp transport on v7.1-rc1 kernel with a patch. Refer to the Link tag for
the details of the WARN.
This is a false positive because lockdep confuses lock 4) (socket
establishment) with lock 5) (socket in use) for different socket
instances. The locks belong to different sockets, but lockdep treats
them as the same due to shared static lockdep keys.
Fix this by using dynamically allocated lockdep keys per socket instance
instead of static keys nvme_tcp_sk_key[] and nvme_tcp_slock_key[]. Add
nvme_tcp_sk_key and nvme_tcp_slock_key fields to struct nvme_tcp_queue
and pass them to sock_lock_init_class_and_name() for proper lockdep
tracking. Change the argument of nvme_tcp_reclassify_socket() from
'struct socket *' to 'struct nvme_tcp_queue *' to pass both the socket
and the keys. Add CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC guards to nvme_tcp_alloc_queue()
and nvme_tcp_free_queue() to register and unregister the dynamic keys.
Additionally, move nvme_tcp_reclassify_socket() inside these guards since
it's only needed when lockdep is enabled.
Merge patch series "mm: improve write performance with RWF_DONTCACHE"
Jeff Layton <jlayton@kernel.org> says:
This patch series is intended to improve write performance with
RWF_DONTCACHE. This version fixes additional stat accounting issues

Jeff Layton [Mon, 11 May 2026 11:58:29 +0000 (07:58 -0400)]
mm: kick writeback flusher for IOCB_DONTCACHE with targeted dirty tracking
The IOCB_DONTCACHE writeback path in generic_write_sync() calls
filemap_flush_range() on every write, submitting writeback inline in
the writer's context. Perf lock contention profiling shows the
performance problem is not lock contention but the writeback submission
work itself — walking the page tree and submitting I/O blocks the writer
for milliseconds, inflating p99.9 latency from 23ms (buffered) to 93ms
(dontcache).
Replace the inline filemap_flush_range() call with a flusher kick that
drains dirty pages in the background. This moves writeback submission
completely off the writer's hot path.
To avoid flushing unrelated buffered dirty data, add a dedicated
WB_start_dontcache bit and wb_check_start_dontcache() handler that uses
the per-wb WB_DONTCACHE_DIRTY counter to determine how many pages to
write back. The flusher writes back that many pages from the oldest dirty
inodes (not restricted to dontcache-specific inodes). This helps
preserve I/O batching while limiting the scope of expedited writeback.
Like WB_start_all, the WB_start_dontcache bit coalesces multiple
DONTCACHE writes into a single flusher wakeup without per-write
allocations. Use test_and_clear_bit to atomically consume the kick
request before reading the dirty counter and starting writeback, so that
concurrent DONTCACHE writes during writeback can re-set the bit and
schedule a follow-up flusher run.
Read the dirty counter with wb_stat_sum() (aggregating per-CPU batches)
rather than wb_stat() (which reads only the global counter) to ensure
small writes below the percpu batch threshold are visible to the flusher.
In filemap_dontcache_kick_writeback(), set the WB_start_dontcache bit
inside the unlocked_inode_to_wb_begin/end section for correct cgroup
writeback domain targeting, but defer the wb_wakeup() call until after
the section ends, since wb_wakeup() uses spin_unlock_irq() which would
unconditionally re-enable interrupts while the i_pages xa_lock may still
be held under irqsave during a cgroup writeback switch. Pin the wb with
wb_get() inside the RCU critical section before calling wb_wakeup()
outside it, since cgroup bdi_writeback structures are RCU-freed and the
wb pointer could become invalid after unlocked_inode_to_wb_end() drops
the RCU read lock.
Also add WB_REASON_DONTCACHE as a new writeback reason for tracing
visibility.
Dontcache now reaches 81% of buffered throughput (was 35%).
Competing writers (dontcache vs buffered, separate files):
Before After
buffered writer 868 433 MB/s
dontcache writer 415 433 MB/s
Aggregate 1,284 866 MB/s
Previously the buffered writer starved the dontcache writer 2:1.
With per-bdi_writeback tracking, both writers now receive equal
bandwidth. The aggregate matches the buffered-vs-buffered baseline
(863 MB/s), indicating fair sharing regardless of I/O mode.
The dontcache writer's p99.9 latency collapsed from 119 ms to
33 ms (-73%), eliminating the severe periodic stalls seen in the
baseline. Both writers now share identical latency profiles,
matching the buffered-vs-buffered pattern.
The per-bdi_writeback dirty tracking dramatically reduces peak dirty
pages in dontcache workloads, with the 32-file test dropping from
1.8 GB to 213 MB. Dontcache sequential write throughput triples and
multi-writer throughput reaches parity with buffered I/O, with tail
latencies collapsing by 1-2 orders of magnitude.

mm: track DONTCACHE dirty pages per bdi_writeback

Increment the counter alongside WB_RECLAIMABLE in folio_account_dirtied()
when the folio has the dropbehind flag set, and decrement it in
folio_clear_dirty_for_io() and folio_account_cleaned(). Also decrement it
when a non-DONTCACHE lookup atomically clears the dropbehind flag on a
dirty folio in __filemap_get_folio_mpol(), using folio_test_clear_dropbehind()

libfs: set SB_I_NOEXEC and SB_I_NODEV by default in init_pseudo()
Since commit 1e7ab6f67824 ("anon_inode: rework assertions"),
path_noexec() warns when an anonymous-inode file is mmap'd from a
superblock that has not set SB_I_NOEXEC. dma-buf backs its files this
way and never set the flag, so mmap of any exported buffer trips the
warning on a CONFIG_DEBUG_VFS=y kernel:
init_pseudo() sets up internal SB_NOUSER mounts that are never
path-reachable. Set both flags here so every pseudo filesystem gets
them by default instead of each caller setting them.
SB_I_NODEV is inert for unreachable mounts. SB_I_NOEXEC has one
visible effect: an executable mapping of a pseudo-fs fd, such as a
dma-buf, now fails with -EPERM, which is the invariant the assertion
enforces. No in-tree caller maps these executable.

iomap: avoid potential null folio->mapping deref during error reporting
When a buffered read fails, iomap_finish_folio_read() reports the error
with fserror_report_io(folio->mapping->host, ...). This is called after
ifs->read_bytes_pending has been decremented by the bytes attempted to
be read.
For a folio split across multiple read completions, the folio is only
guaranteed to stay locked while read_bytes_pending > 0. Once
iomap_finish_folio_read() decrements read_bytes_pending, another
in-flight read can complete and end the read on the folio, which unlocks
it. This allows truncate logic to run and detach the folio (set
folio->mapping to NULL). The error reporting path then can dereference a
NULL folio->mapping. As reported by Sam Sun, this is the race that can
occur:
CPU0: failed completion CPU1: final completion CPU2: truncate

read_bytes_pending -= len
finished = false

read_bytes_pending -= len

folio_end_read()
truncate clears
folio->mapping
fserror_report_io(

Fix this by reporting the error first before decrementing

This race can happens as follows, assuming that the mount point was

====================
When an ADD_ADDR needs to be sent, it could be prepared if there is
enough remaining space and even if the packet is not a pure ACK. But it
would be dropped soon after.
Indeed, in mptcp_pm_add_addr_signal(), there is enough space to fit a
DSS of 20 octets and an ADD_ADDR echo containing an IPv4 address on 8
octets for example. In this case, the packet would be prepared, the
MPTCP_ADD_ADDR_ECHO bit would be removed from pm->addr_signal, but the
option would be silently dropped in mptcp_established_options_add_addr()
not to override DSS info in the union from 'struct mptcp_out_options',
and also because mptcp_write_options() will enforce mutually exclusion
with DSS.
Instead, don't even try to send an ADD_ADDR if it is not a pure ACK.
Retry for each new packet until a pure-ACK is emitted. That's fine to do
that, because each time an ADD_ADDR (echo) is scheduled, a pure ACK is
queued.
This also simplifies the code, and the skb checks can be done earlier,
before the lock.
Note: also, since commit 6d0060f600ad ("mptcp: Write MPTCP DSS headers
to outgoing data packets"), opts->ahmac would not have been set to 0
when other suboptions were not dropped, and when sending an ADD_ADDR
echo. That would have resulted in sending an ADD_ADDR using garbage
info, where there was not enough space, instead of an echo one without
the ADD_ADDR HMAC.
Local variable opts created at:
__tcp_transmit_skb+0x4d/0x5fe0 net/ipv4/tcp_output.c:1536
__tcp_send_ack+0x967/0xad0 net/ipv4/tcp_output.c:4499
The output path currently omits initializing the mptcp extension
`use_map` flag in a few corner cases.
Address the issue always zeroing all the extensions flags before
eventually initializing the individual bits. To that extent, introduce
and use a struct_group to avoid multiple bitwise operations.

mptcp: check desc->count in read_sock
__tcp_read_sock() checks desc->count after each skb is consumed and
breaks the loop when it reaches 0. The MPTCP variant lacks this check.
This is a functional bug, other subsystems also rely on this check:
TLS strparser sets desc->count to 0 once a full TLS record is assembled
and depends on this break to stop reading.
Add the same desc->count check to __mptcp_read_sock(), mirroring
__tcp_read_sock().
The mptcp_setsockopt_all_sf(), currently used only with TCP_MAXSEG,
stopped when one subflow returned an error.
Even if it is not wrong, this is different from the other helpers trying
to set the option on all subflows, and then returning an error if at
least one of them had an issue.
Follow this behaviour, for a question of uniformity.
sock_set_timestamping() can fail for different reasons. The returned
value should then be checked.
If sock_set_timestamping() fails for at least one subflow, the first
error is now reported to the userspace, similar to what is done with
other socket options.

this decrement is spurious and causes extra_subflows to underflow.

mptcp: allow subflow rcv wnd to shrink
In MPTCP connection, the `window` field in the TCP header refers to the
MPTCP-level rcv_nxt and it's right edge should not move backward. Such
constraint is enforced at DSS option generation time.
At the same time, the TCP stack ensures independently that the TCP-level
rcv wnd right's edge does not move backward. That in turn causes artificial
inflating of the MPTCP rcv window when the incoming data is acked at the
TCP level and is OoO in the MPTCP sequence space (or lands in the backlog).
As a consequence, the incoming traffic can exceed the receiver rcvbuf size
even when the sender is not misbehaving.
Prevent such scenario forcibly allowing the TCP subflow to shrink the

====================
geneve: Allow binding UDP socket to a specific address.
By default, a GENEVE device bind()s its underlying UDP socket(s) to
the IPv4 or IPv6 wildcard address because there is no way to specify
a specific local IP address to bind() to.
This prevents deploying multiple GENEVE devices on a multi-homed host
where each device should be isolated and bound to a different local IP
address on the same UDP port.
This series introduces two options to specify local IPv4 or IPv6
addresses for a GENEVE device.
====================
geneve: Introduce IFLA_GENEVE_LOCAL and IFLA_GENEVE_LOCAL6.
By default, a GENEVE device bind()s its underlying UDP socket(s) to
the IPv4 or IPv6 wildcard address because there is no way to specify
a specific local IP address to bind() to.
This prevents deploying multiple GENEVE devices on a multi-homed host
where each device should be isolated and bound to a different local IP
address on the same UDP port.
Let's introduce new options, IFLA_GENEVE_LOCAL and IFLA_GENEVE_LOCAL6,
to allow specifying a local IPv4/IPv6 address for the backend UDP
socket.
By default, when collect metadata mode (IFLA_GENEVE_COLLECT_METADATA)
is enabled, both IPv4 and IPv6 sockets are created. However, if a
source address is specified via the new attributes, only a single
socket corresponding to that specific address family is created.
Accordingly, geneve_find_sock() and geneve_find_dev() are updated to
take the source address into account, ensuring that multiple devices
and sockets configured with different source addresses can coexist
without conflict.
In addition, the source address is validated in geneve_xmit_skb()
and geneve6_xmit_skb(), so the BPF prog must set it in bpf_tunnel_key.
With this change, multiple GENEVE devices can be successfully created
and bound to their respective local IP addresses:
(*) "local" is the keyword for IFLA_GENEVE_LOCAL / IFLA_GENEVE_LOCAL6
# for i in $(seq 1 2);
do
ip link add geneve4_${i} type geneve local 192.168.0.${i} external
ip addr add 192.168.0.${i}/24 dev geneve4_${i}
ip link set geneve4_${i} up
ip link add geneve6_${i} type geneve local 2001:9292::${i} external
ip addr add 2001:9292::${i}/64 dev geneve6_${i} nodad
ip link set geneve6_${i} up
done
# ip -d l | grep geneve
9: geneve4_1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> ...
geneve external id 0 local 192.168.0.1 ...
10: geneve6_1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> ...
geneve external id 0 local 2001:9292::1 ...
11: geneve4_2: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> ...
geneve external id 0 local 192.168.0.2 ...
12: geneve6_2: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> ...
geneve external id 0 local 2001:9292::2 ...
Note that even if the local address is explicitly configured with
the wildcard address, kernel does not dump it except for devices with
IFLA_GENEVE_COLLECT_METADATA. This is consistent with the behaviour
of is_tnl_info_zero(), which treats the wildcard remote address as not
configured.
geneve: Add dualstack flag to struct geneve_config.
When collect metadata mode (IFLA_GENEVE_COLLECT_METADATA) is
enabled, the GENEVE device creates both IPv4 and IPv6 sockets
and bind()s them to wildcard addresses.
The next patch allows creating only one socket bound to a
specific address even when the collect metadata mode is
enabled.
Then, we need a flag to distinguish dualstack GENEVE devices
to detect local address conflict.
Let's add the dualstack flag to struct geneve_config.
IFLA_GENEVE_COLLECT_METADATA processing is moved up in
geneve_nl2info() for the next patch to overwrite dualstack
to false while keeping collect_md true.
Note that IFLA_GENEVE_REMOTE and IFLA_GENEVE_REMOTE6 does not
set cfg->dualstack to false since is_tnl_info_zero() ignores
the wildcard remote address:
# ip link add geneve0 type geneve external remote 0.0.0.1

csum_start and csum_offset are read from shared memory for bounds
validation, then read again for skb assignment. A malicious userspace
application can race to overwrite these values between the two reads,
bypassing the bounds check and causing out-of-bounds memory access
during checksum computation in the transmit path.
Fix this by reading csum_start and csum_offset into local variables
once, then using the local copies for both validation and assignment.
Note that other metadata fields (flags, launch_time) and the cached
csum fields may be mutually inconsistent due to concurrent userspace
writes, but this is benign: the only security-critical invariant is
that each field's validated value is the same one used, which local
caching guarantees.

net/mlx5: Add switchdev mode support for Socket Direct single netdev, part 1/2
This series enables Socket Direct single netdev to operate in switchdev
mode with shared FDB. SD single netdev combines multiple PCI functions
behind a single netdev interface. To support switchdev offloads, these
functions must participate in virtual LAG (shared FDB).
Design
Rather than introducing a separate LAG instance for SD, this series
integrates SD secondary devices into the existing LAG structure
(priv.lag) created at probe time. Each lag_func entry carries a
group_id field that identifies its SD group membership (0 means not
part of any SD group). An xarray mark (XA_MARK_PORT) distinguishes
physical port entries from SD secondaries, enabling a single unified
iterator that filters by group:
- MLX5_LAG_FILTER_PORTS: iterate port-level entries only (existing
behavior, used by bonding, FW LAG commands, v2p_map)
- MLX5_LAG_FILTER_ALL: iterate all devices including SD secondaries
(used by MPESW shared FDB across all devices)
- specific group_id: iterate only devices in that SD group (used by
per-group SD shared FDB operations)
Existing callers use mlx5_ldev_for_each() which maps to
MLX5_LAG_FILTER_PORTS, preserving current behavior for non-SD
configurations.
Lifecycle and ownership
The SD LAG lifecycle is tied to the SD group, not to bonding events:
1. At PCI probe, mlx5_lag_add_mdev() creates the LAG structure
(priv.lag) for each LAG-capable PF. e.g.: SD primary devices
2. During mlx5_sd_init(), after the SD group is fully formed (primary
and secondaries paired), sd_lag_init() registers the secondary
devices into the primary's existing priv.lag by calling
mlx5_ldev_add_mdev() with the SD group_id. The primary's lag_func
also gets its group_id set. No separate LAG instance is created.
3. After all the devices in SD group transition to switchdev,
mlx5_lag_shared_fdb_create() is invoked with the group_id to create
a software-only shared FDB scoped to that SD group. This sets
sd_fdb_active on all lag_func entries in the group. No FW LAG
commands are issued since SD devices share the same physical port.
4. If MPESW (multi-port eswitch) is enabled on top of SD groups, the
per-group SD shared FDB is torn down first, then MPESW shared FDB is
created spanning all devices (ports + SD secondaries) using
MLX5_LAG_FILTER_ALL. On MPESW disable, per-group SD shared FDB is
restored.
5. On SD teardown (mlx5_sd_cleanup or device unbind), sd_lag_cleanup()
removes secondaries from priv.lag and clears the primary's group_id.
The LAG structure itself is not destroyed.
The sd_fdb_active flag is set on all lag_func entries in a group (not
just the primary), so any device can detect the SD shared FDB state
during lag_disable_change teardown without needing to look up peer
entries.
SD shared FDB is a pure software construct -- unlike regular LAG modes
(ROCE, SRIOV, MPESW), it does not issue FW create_lag/destroy_lag
commands. The software vport LAG for SD is implemented via eswitch
egress ACL bounce rules, managed by the IB layer through
mlx5_eth_lag_init(). And the software LAG demux is implemented via
steering rules that utilize new destination, VHCA_RX.
Patches

- Factor out shared FDB code into a dedicated file

SD group management (patches 4, 7-9):
- Replace peer count check with direct peer lookup
- Register SD secondaries in the existing LAG at SD init time
- Block RoCE and VF LAG for SD devices
- Block multipath LAG for SD devices

- Track peer flow slots with bitmap for selective peer flow deletion
- Enable TC flow steering for SD LAG

mm/huge_memory: use correct flags for device private PMD entry
Commit 65edfda6f3f2 ("mm/rmap: extend rmap and migration support
device-private entries") updated set_pmd_migration_entry() to use
pmdp_huge_get_and_clear() in the softleaf case, but made no further
adjustments to the function itself.
Therefore this function continues to incorrectly use pmd_write(),
pmd_soft_dirty() and pmd_uffd_wp() to determine whether the installed
migration entry should be marked writable, softdirty or uffd-wp
respectively.
Whilst all are incorrect, the most problematic of these is pmd_write(), as
this can lead to corrupted rmap state.
On x86-64 _PAGE_SWP_SOFT_DIRTY is aliased to _PAGE_RW. So calling
pmd_write() on a softleaf will return the softdirty state encoded in the
entry, assuming CONFIG_MEM_SOFT_DIRTY was enabled.
This was observed when running the hmm.hmm_device_private.anon_write_child
selftest:
1. The test faults in a range then migrates it such that a device-private
THP range is established.
2. The parent then migrates it to a device-private writable PMD entry whose
folio is entirely AnonExclusive with entire_mapcount=1, softdirty set
(accidentally correct write state).
3. The parent forks and the PMD entries are set to device-private read only
entries, entire_mapcount=2, softdirty still set.
4. [BUG] The child writes to the range then migrates to RAM - intending to
install non-writable migration entries - but replacing parent and child
PMD mappings with WRITABLE entries due to misinterpreting the softdirty
bit.
5. In remove_migration_pmd(), if !softleaf_is_migration_read(entry) we
set the RMAP_EXCLUSIVE flag when calling folio_add_anon_rmap_pmd() for
both parent and child, which are therefore AnonExclusive.
6. [SPLAT] Child sets migrated folio entire_mapcount=1, parent sets
entire_mapcount=2 and we end up with an AnonExclusive folio with
entire_mapcount=2! Assert fires in __folio_add_anon_rmap():
This patch fixes the issue by correctly referencing the softleaf entry
fields for writable, softdirty and uffd-wp in set_pmd_migration_entry().
It also only updates A/D flags if the entry is present as these are
otherwise not meaningful for a softleaf entry.
This patch also flips the if (!present) { ... } else { ... } logic in
set_pmd_migration_entry() so it is easier to understand, and adds some
comments to make things clearer.
I was able to bisect this to commit 775465fd26a3 ("lib/test_hmm: add zone

it was the commit that permitted test_hmm to generate the test.
However commit 65edfda6f3f2 ("mm/rmap: extend rmap and migration support

behaviour.

tools headers UAPI: sync linux/taskstats.h for procacct.c
After commit 9b93f7e32774 ("tools/getdelays: use the static UAPI headers
from tools/include/uapi"), the Makefile was changed to use
-I../include/uapi/ instead of -I../../usr/include to ensure tools always
use the up-to-date UAPI headers.
However, only linux/taskstats.h was added to tools/include/uapi/ in commit e5bbb35a07b3 ("tools headers UAPI: sync linux/taskstats.h"), but
linux/acct.h was missing.
This causes procacct.c to fail to compile with:
procacct.c:234:37: error: 'AGROUP' undeclared (first use in this function)
gcc -I../include/uapi/ getdelays.c -o getdelays
gcc -I../include/uapi/ procacct.c -o procacct
procacct.c: In function `print_procacct':
procacct.c:234:37: error: `AGROUP' undeclared (first use in this function)
did you mean `NOGROUP'?
234 | , t->version >= 12 ? (t->ac_flag & AGROUP ? 'P' : 'T') : '?'
| ^~~~~~
| NOGROUP
procacct.c:234:37: note: each undeclared ident
because procacct.c uses the AGROUP macro defined in linux/acct.h.
Add the missing linux/acct.h to complete the static UAPI header set.
