mm/damon/lru_sort: detect and use fresh enabled and kdamond_pid values

2026-06-19T11:37:31+00:00

commit b98b7ff6025ae82570d4915e083f0cbd8d48b3cf upstream. DAMON_LRU_SORT updates 'enabled' and 'kdamond_pid' parameter values, which represents the running status of its kdamond, when the user explicitly requests start/stop of the kdamond. The kdamond can, however, be stopped in events other than the explicit user request in the following three events. 1. ctx->regions_score_histogram allocation failure at beginning of the execution, 2. damon_commit_ctx() failure due to invalid user input, and 3. damon_commit_ctx() failure due to its internal allocation failures. Hence, if the kdamond is stopped by the above three events, the values of the status parameters can be stale. Users could show the stale values and be confused. This is already bad, but the real consequence is worse. DAMON_LRU_SORT avoids unnecessary damon_start() and damon_stop() calls based on the 'enabled' parameter value. And the update of 'enabled' parameter value depends on the damon_start() and damon_stop() call results. Hence, once the kdamond has stopped by the unintentional events, the user cannot restart the kdamond before the system reboot. For example, the issue can be reproduced via below steps. # cd /sys/module/damon_lru_sort/parameters # # # start DAMON_LRU_SORT # echo Y > enabled # ps -ef | grep kdamond root 806 2 0 17:53 ? 00:00:00 [kdamond.0] root 808 803 0 17:53 pts/4 00:00:00 grep kdamond # # # commit wrong input to stop kdamond withou explicit stop request # echo 3 > addr_unit # echo Y > commit_inputs bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument # # # confirm kdamond is stopped # ps -ef | grep kdamond root 811 803 0 17:53 pts/4 00:00:00 grep kdamond # # # users casn now show stable status # cat enabled Y # cat kdamond_pid 806 # # # even after fixing the wrong parameter, # # kdamond cannot be restarted. # echo 1 > addr_unit # echo Y > enabled # ps -ef | grep kdamond root 815 803 0 17:54 pts/4 00:00:00 grep kdamond The problem will only rarely happen in real and common setups for the following reasons. The allocation failures are unlikely in such setups since those allocations are arguably too small to fail. Also sane users on real production environments may not commit wrong input parameters. But once it happens, the consequence is quite bad. And the bug is a bug. The issue stems from the fact that there are multiple events that can change the status, and following all the events is challenging. Dynamically detect and use the fresh status for the parameters when those are requested.

mm/damon/core: implement damon_kdamond_pid()

2026-06-19T11:37:31+00:00

commit 4262c53236977de3ceaa3bf2aefdf772c9b874dd upstream. Patch series "mm/damon: hide kdamond and kdamond_lock from API callers". 'kdamond' and 'kdamond_lock' fields initially exposed to DAMON API callers for flexible synchronization and use cases. As DAMON API became somewhat complicated compared to the early days, Keeping those exposed could only encourage the API callers to invent more creative but complicated and difficult-to-debug use cases. Fortunately DAMON API callers didn't invent that many creative use cases. There exist only two use cases of 'kdamond' and 'kdamond_lock'. Finding whether the kdamond is actively running, and getting the pid of the kdamond. For the first use case, a dedicated API function, namely 'damon_is_running()' is provided, and all DAMON API callers are using the function for the use case. Hence only the second use case is where the fields are directly being used by DAMON API callers. To prevent future invention of complicated and erroneous use cases of the fields, hide the fields from the API callers. For that, provide new dedicated DAMON API functions for the remaining use case, namely damon_kdamond_pid(), migrate DAMON API callers to use the new function, and mark the fields as private fields. This patch (of 5): 'kdamond' and 'kdamond_lock' are directly being used by DAMON API callers for getting the pid of the corresponding kdamond. To discourage invention of creative but complicated and erroneous new usages of the fields that require careful synchronization, implement a new API function that can simply be used without the manual synchronizations.

RDMA: Move DMA block iterator logic into dedicated files

mm/memory-failure: fix hugetlb_lock AA deadlock in get_huge_page_for_hwpoison

2026-06-19T11:37:30+00:00

[ Upstream commit 3c2d42b8ee345b17a4ba56b0f6492d1ff4c1178e ] Two concurrent madvise(MADV_HWPOISON) calls on the same hugetlb page can trigger a recursive spinlock self-deadlock (AA deadlock) on hugetlb_lock when racing with a concurrent unmap: thread#0 thread#1 -------- -------- madvise(folio, MADV_HWPOISON) -> poisons the folio successfully madvise(folio, MADV_HWPOISON) unmap(folio) try_memory_failure_hugetlb get_huge_page_for_hwpoison spin_lock_irq(&hugetlb_lock) <- held __get_huge_page_for_hwpoison hugetlb_update_hwpoison() -> MF_HUGETLB_FOLIO_PRE_POISONED goto out: folio_put() refcount: 1 -> 0 free_huge_folio() spin_lock_irqsave(&hugetlb_lock) -> AA DEADLOCK! The out: path in __get_huge_page_for_hwpoison() calls folio_put() to drop the GUP reference while the hugetlb_lock is still held by the hugetlb.c wrapper get_huge_page_for_hwpoison(). If concurrent unmap has released the page table mapping reference, folio_put() drops the folio refcount to zero, triggering free_huge_folio() which attempts to re-acquire the non-recursive hugetlb_lock. Fix this by moving hugetlb_lock acquisition from the hugetlb.c wrapper into get_huge_page_for_hwpoison(). Place spin_unlock_irq() before the folio_put() at the out: label so the folio is always released outside the lock.

Bluetooth: serialize accept_q access

2026-06-19T11:37:26+00:00

[ Upstream commit e83f5e24da741fa9405aeeff00b08c5ee7c37b88 ] bt_sock_poll() walks the accept queue without synchronization, while child teardown can unlink the same socket and drop its last reference. The unsynchronized accept queue walk has existed since the initial Bluetooth import. Protect accept_q with a dedicated lock for queue updates and polling. Also rework bt_accept_dequeue() to take temporary child references under the queue lock before dropping it and locking the child socket.

genetlink: Use internal flags for multicast groups

2026-06-19T11:37:25+00:00

[ Upstream commit cd4d7263d58ab98fd4dee876776e4da6c328faa3 ] As explained in commit e03781879a0d ("drop_monitor: Require 'CAP_SYS_ADMIN' when joining "events" group"), the "flags" field in the multicast group structure reuses uAPI flags despite the field not being exposed to user space. This makes it impossible to extend its use without adding new uAPI flags, which is inappropriate for internal kernel checks. Solve this by adding internal flags (i.e., "GENL_MCAST_*") and convert the existing users to use them instead of the uAPI flags. Tested using the reproducers in commit 44ec98ea5ea9 ("psample: Require 'CAP_NET_ADMIN' when joining "packets" group") and commit e03781879a0d ("drop_monitor: Require 'CAP_SYS_ADMIN' when joining "events" group").
