Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
"Lock debugging:
- Implement compiler-driven static analysis locking context checking,
using the upcoming Clang 22 compiler's context analysis features
(Marco Elver)
We removed Sparse context analysis support, because prior to
removal even a defconfig kernel produced 1,700+ context tracking
Sparse warnings, the overwhelming majority of which are false
positives. On an allmodconfig kernel the number of false positive
context tracking Sparse warnings grows to over 5,200... On the plus
side of the balance actual locking bugs found by Sparse context
analysis is also rather ... sparse: I found only 3 such commits in
the last 3 years. So the rate of false positives and the
maintenance overhead is rather high and there appears to be no
active policy in place to achieve a zero-warnings baseline to move
the annotations & fixers to developers who introduce new code.
Clang context analysis is more complete and more aggressive in
trying to find bugs, at least in principle. Plus it has a different
model to enabling it: it's enabled subsystem by subsystem, which
results in zero warnings on all relevant kernel builds (as far as
our testing managed to cover it). Which allowed us to enable it by
default, similar to other compiler warnings, with the expectation
that there are no warnings going forward. This enforces a
zero-warnings baseline on clang-22+ builds (Which are still limited
in distribution, admittedly)
Hopefully the Clang approach can lead to a more maintainable
zero-warnings status quo and policy, with more and more subsystems
and drivers enabling the feature. Context tracking can be enabled
for all kernel code via WARN_CONTEXT_ANALYSIS_ALL=y (default
disabled), but this will generate a lot of false positives.
( Having said that, Sparse support could still be added back,
if anyone is interested - the removal patch is still
relatively straightforward to revert at this stage. )

Pull keys update from David Howells:
"This adds support for ML-DSA signatures in X.509 certificates and
PKCS#7/CMS messages, thereby allowing this algorithm to be used for
signing modules, kexec'able binaries, wifi regulatory data, etc..
This requires OpenSSL-3.5 at a minimum and preferably OpenSSL-4 (so
that it can avoid the use of CMS signedAttrs - but that version is not
cut yet). certs/Kconfig does a check to hide the signing options if
OpenSSL does not list the algorithm as being available"

Allow the data to be verified in a PKCS#7 or CMS message to be passed
directly to an asymmetric cipher algorithm (e.g. ML-DSA) if it wants to do
whatever passes for hashing/digestion itself. The normal digestion of the
data is then skipped as that would be ignored unless another signed info in
the message has some other algorithm that needs it.
The 'data to be verified' may be the content of the PKCS#7 message or it
will be the authenticatedAttributes (signedAttrs if CMS), modified, if
those are present.
This is done by:
(1) Make ->m and ->m_size point to the data to be verified rather than
making public_key_verify_signature() access the data directly. This
is so that keyctl(KEYCTL_PKEY_VERIFY) will still work.
(2) Add a flag, ->algo_takes_data, to indicate that the verification
algorithm wants to access the data to be verified directly rather than
having it digested first.
(3) If the PKCS#7 message has authenticatedAttributes (or CMS
signedAttrs), then the digest contained therein will be validated as
now, and the modified attrs blob will either be digested or assigned
to ->m as appropriate.
(4) If present, always copy and modify the authenticatedAttributes (or
signedAttrs) then digest that in one go rather than calling the shash
update twice (once for the tag and once for the rest).
(5) For ML-DSA, point ->m to the TBSCertificate instead of digesting it
and using the digest.
Note that whilst ML-DSA does allow for an "external mu", CMS doesn't yet
have that standardised.

Now that all callers of the aes_encrypt() and aes_decrypt() type-generic
macros are using the new types, remove the old functions.
Then, replace the macro with direct calls to the new functions, dropping
the "_new" suffix from them.
This completes the change in the type of the key struct that is passed
to aes_encrypt() and aes_decrypt().

Switch from the old AES library functions (which use struct

eliminates the unnecessary computation and caching of the decryption
round keys. The new AES en/decryption functions are also much faster
and use AES instructions when supported by the CPU.
Note that in addition to the change in the key preparation function and

Move the SPARC64 AES assembly code into lib/crypto/, wire the key
expansion and single-block en/decryption functions up to the AES library
API, and remove the "aes-sparc64" crypto_cipher algorithm.
The result is that both the AES library and crypto_cipher APIs use the
SPARC64 AES opcodes, whereas previously only crypto_cipher did (and it
wasn't enabled by default, which this commit fixes as well).
Note that some of the functions in the SPARC64 AES assembly code are
still used by the AES mode implementations in
arch/sparc/crypto/aes_glue.c. For now, just export these functions.
These exports will go away once the AES mode implementations are
migrated to the library as well. (Trying to split up the assembly file
seemed like much more trouble than it would be worth.)

Move the POWER8 AES assembly code into lib/crypto/, wire the key
expansion and single-block en/decryption functions up to the AES library
API, and remove the superseded "p8_aes" crypto_cipher algorithm.
The result is that both the AES library and crypto_cipher APIs are now

optimizations weren't enabled by default, which this commit fixes too).
Note that many of the functions in the POWER8 assembly code are still

just export these functions. These exports will go away once the AES
modes are migrated to the library as well. (Trying to split up the
assembly file seemed like much more trouble than it would be worth.)
Another challenge with this code is that the POWER8 assembly code uses a
custom format for the expanded AES key. Since that code is imported
from OpenSSL and is also targeted to POWER8 (rather than POWER9 which
has better data movement and byteswap instructions), that is not easily
changed. For now I've just kept the custom format. To maintain full
correctness, this requires executing some slow fallback code in the case
where the usability of VSX changes between key expansion and use. This
should be tolerable, as this case shouldn't happen in practice.

Now that the AES library's performance has been improved, replace
aes_generic.c with a new file aes.c which wraps the AES library.
In preparation for making the AES library actually utilize the kernel's
existing architecture-optimized AES code including AES instructions, set
the driver name to "aes-lib" instead of "aes-generic". This mirrors
what's been done for the hash algorithms. Update testmgr.c accordingly.
Since this removes the crypto_aes_set_key() helper function, add
temporary replacements for it to arch/arm/crypto/aes-cipher-glue.c and
arch/arm64/crypto/aes-cipher-glue.c. This is temporary, as that code
will be migrated into lib/crypto/ in later commits.

The kernel's AES library currently has the following issues:
- It doesn't take advantage of the architecture-optimized AES code,
including the implementations using AES instructions.
- It's much slower than even the other software AES implementations: 2-4
times slower than "aes-generic", "aes-arm", and "aes-arm64".
- It requires that both the encryption and decryption round keys be
computed and cached. This is wasteful for users that need only the
forward (encryption) direction of the cipher: the key struct is 484
bytes when only 244 are actually needed. This missed optimization is
very common, as many AES modes (e.g. GCM, CFB, CTR, CMAC, and even the
tweak key in XTS) use the cipher only in the forward (encryption)
direction even when doing decryption.
- It doesn't provide the flexibility to customize the prepared key
format. The API is defined to do key expansion, and several callers
in drivers/crypto/ use it specifically to expand the key. This is an
issue when integrating the existing powerpc, s390, and sparc code,
which is necessary to provide full parity with the traditional API.
To resolve these issues, I'm proposing the following changes:
1. New structs 'aes_key' and 'aes_enckey' are introduced, with
corresponding functions aes_preparekey() and aes_prepareenckey().
Generally these structs will include the encryption+decryption round
keys and the encryption round keys, respectively. However, the exact
format will be under control of the architecture-specific AES code.
(The verb "prepare" is chosen over "expand" since key expansion isn't
necessarily done. It's also consistent with hmac*_preparekey().)
2. aes_encrypt() and aes_decrypt() will be changed to operate on the new
structs instead of struct crypto_aes_ctx.
3. aes_encrypt() and aes_decrypt() will use architecture-optimized code
when available, or else fall back to a new generic AES implementation
that unifies the existing two fragmented generic AES implementations.
The new generic AES implementation uses tables for both SubBytes and
MixColumns, making it almost as fast as "aes-generic". However,
instead of aes-generic's huge 8192-byte tables per direction, it uses
only 1024 bytes for encryption and 1280 bytes for decryption (similar
to "aes-arm"). The cost is just some extra rotations.
The new generic AES implementation also includes table prefetching,
making it have some "constant-time hardening". That's an improvement
from aes-generic which has no constant-time hardening.
It does slightly regress in constant-time hardening vs. the old
lib/crypto/aes.c which had smaller tables, and from aes-fixed-time
which disabled IRQs on top of that. But I think this is tolerable.
The real solutions for constant-time AES are AES instructions or
bit-slicing. The table-based code remains a best-effort fallback for
the increasingly-rare case where a real solution is unavailable.
4. crypto_aes_ctx and aes_expandkey() will remain for now, but only for
callers that are using them specifically for the AES key expansion
(as opposed to en/decrypting data with the AES library).
This commit begins the migration process by introducing the new structs
and functions, backed by the new generic AES implementation.
To allow callers to be incrementally converted, aes_encrypt() and
aes_decrypt() are temporarily changed into macros that use a _Generic
expression to call either the old functions (which take crypto_aes_ctx)
or the new functions (which take the new types). Once all callers have
been updated, these macros will go away, the old functions will be
removed, and the "_new" suffix will be dropped from the new functions.

Add support for the NH "almost-universal hash function" to lib/crypto/,
specifically the variant of NH used in Adiantum.
This will replace the need for the "nhpoly1305" crypto_shash algorithm.
All the implementations of "nhpoly1305" use architecture-optimized code
only for the NH stage; they just use the generic C Poly1305 code for the
Poly1305 stage. We can achieve the same result in a simpler way using
an (architecture-optimized) nh() function combined with code in
crypto/adiantum.c that passes the results to the Poly1305 library.
This commit begins this cleanup by adding the nh() function. The code
is derived from crypto/nhpoly1305.c and include/crypto/nhpoly1305.h.

Add support for verifying ML-DSA signatures.
ML-DSA (Module-Lattice-Based Digital Signature Algorithm) is specified
in FIPS 204 and is the standard version of Dilithium. Unlike RSA and
elliptic-curve cryptography, ML-DSA is believed to be secure even
against adversaries in possession of a large-scale quantum computer.
Compared to the earlier patch
(https://lore.kernel.org/r/20251117145606.2155773-3-dhowells@redhat.com/)
that was based on "leancrypto", this implementation:
- Is about 700 lines of source code instead of 4800.
- Generates about 4 KB of object code instead of 28 KB.
- Uses 9-13 KB of memory to verify a signature instead of 31-84 KB.
- Is at least about the same speed, with a microbenchmark showing 3-5%
improvements on one x86_64 CPU and -1% to 1% changes on another.
When memory is a bottleneck, it's likely much faster.
- Correctly implements the RejNTTPoly step of the algorithm.
The API just consists of a single function mldsa_verify(), supporting
pure ML-DSA with any standard parameter set (ML-DSA-44, ML-DSA-65, or
ML-DSA-87) as selected by an enum. That's all that's actually needed.
The following four potential features are unneeded and aren't included.
However, any that ever become needed could fairly easily be added later,
as they only affect how the message representative mu is calculated:
- Nonempty context strings
- Incremental message hashing
- HashML-DSA
- External mu
Signing support would, of course, be a larger and more complex addition.
However, the kernel doesn't, and shouldn't, need ML-DSA signing support.
Note that mldsa_verify() allocates memory, so it can sleep and can fail
with ENOMEM. Unfortunately we don't have much choice about that, since
ML-DSA needs a lot of memory. At least callers have to check for errors
anyway, since the signature could be invalid.
Note that verification doesn't require constant-time code, and in fact
some steps are inherently variable-time. I've used constant-time
patterns in some places anyway, but technically they're not needed.

Enable context analysis for crypto subsystem.
This demonstrates a larger conversion to use Clang's context
analysis. The benefit is additional static checking of locking rules,
along with better documentation.
Note the use of the __acquire_ret macro how to define an API where a
function returns a pointer to an object (struct scomp_scratch) with a
lock held. Additionally, the analysis only resolves aliases where the
analysis unambiguously sees that a variable was not reassigned after
initialization, requiring minor code changes.

Pull 'at_least' array size update from Eric Biggers:
"C supports lower bounds on the sizes of array parameters, using the
static keyword as follows: 'void f(int a[static 32]);'. This allows
the compiler to warn about a too-small array being passed.
As discussed, this reuse of the 'static' keyword, while standard, is a
bit obscure. Therefore, add an alias 'at_least' to compiler_types.h.
Then, add this 'at_least' annotation to the array parameters of
various crypto library functions"

The original implementation of memcpy_sglist() was broken because it
didn't handle scatterlists that describe exactly the same memory, which
is a case that many callers rely on. The current implementation is
broken too because it calls the skcipher_walk functions which can fail.
It ignores any errors from those functions.
Fix it by replacing it with a new implementation written from scratch.
It always succeeds. It's also a bit faster, since it avoids the
overhead of skcipher_walk. skcipher_walk includes a lot of
functionality (such as alignmask handling) that's irrelevant here.

Remove ansi_cprng, since it's obsolete and unused, as confirmed at
https://lore.kernel.org/r/aQxpnckYMgAAOLpZ@gondor.apana.org.au/
This was originally added in 2008, apparently as a FIPS approved random
number generator. Whether this has ever belonged upstream is
questionable. Either way, ansi_cprng is no longer usable for this
purpose, since it's been superseded by the more modern algorithms in
crypto/drbg.c, and FIPS itself no longer allows it. (NIST SP 800-131A
Rev 1 (2015) says that RNGs based on ANSI X9.31 will be disallowed after
2015. NIST SP 800-131A Rev 2 (2019) confirms they are now disallowed.)
Therefore, there is no reason to keep it around.

Migrate the x86_64 implementation of POLYVAL into lib/crypto/, wiring it
up to the POLYVAL library interface. This makes the POLYVAL library be
properly optimized on x86_64.
This drops the x86_64 optimizations of polyval in the crypto_shash API.
That's fine, since polyval will be removed from crypto_shash entirely
since it is unneeded there. But even if it comes back, the crypto_shash
API could just be implemented on top of the library API, as usual.
Adjust the names and prototypes of the assembly functions to align more
closely with the rest of the library code.
Also replace a movaps instruction with movups to remove the assumption
that the key struct is 16-byte aligned. Users can still align the key
if they want (and at least in this case, movups is just as fast as
movaps), but it's inconvenient to require it.

Add support for POLYVAL to lib/crypto/.
This will replace the polyval crypto_shash algorithm and its use in the
hctr2 template, simplifying the code and reducing overhead.
Specifically, this commit introduces the POLYVAL library API and a
generic implementation of it. Later commits will migrate the existing
architecture-optimized implementations of POLYVAL into lib/crypto/ and
add a KUnit test suite.
I've also rewritten the generic implementation completely, using a more
modern approach instead of the traditional table-based approach. It's
now constant-time, requires no precomputation or dynamic memory
allocations, decreases the per-key memory usage from 4096 bytes to 16
bytes, and is faster than the old polyval-generic even on bulk data
reusing the same key (at least on x86_64, where I measured 15% faster).
We should do this for GHASH too, but for now just do it for POLYVAL.

Change the driver name suffix from "-generic" to "-lib" to reflect that
these algorithms now just use the (possibly arch-optimized) library.
This closely mirrors crypto/{md5,sha1,sha256,sha512,blake2b}.c.
Implement export_core and import_core, since crypto/hmac.c expects these
to be present. (Note that there is no security purpose in wrapping
SHA-3 with HMAC. HMAC was designed for older algorithms that don't
resist length extension attacks. But since someone could be using
"hmac(sha3-*)" via crypto_shash anyway, keep supporting it for now.)

This patch introduces infrastructure for allocating req objects on the
stack for AEADs. The additions mirror the existing sync skcipher APIs.
This can be used in cases where simple sync AEAD operations are being
done. So allocating the request on stack avoides possible out-of-memory
errors.
The struct crypto_sync_aead is a wrapper around crypto_aead and should
be used in its place when sync only requests will be done on the stack.
Correspondingly, the request should be allocated with
SYNC_AEAD_REQUEST_ON_STACK().
Similar to sync_skcipher APIs, the new sync_aead APIs are wrappers
around the regular aead APIs to facilitate sync only operations. The
following crypto APIs are added:
- struct crypto_sync_aead
- crypto_alloc_sync_aead()
- crypto_free_sync_aead()
- crypto_aync_aead_tfm()
- crypto_sync_aead_setkey()
- crypto_sync_aead_setauthsize()

Add a library API for BLAKE2b, closely modeled after the BLAKE2s API.
This will allow in-kernel users such as btrfs to use BLAKE2b without
going through the generic crypto layer. In addition, as usual the
BLAKE2b crypto_shash algorithms will be reimplemented on top of this.
Note: to create lib/crypto/blake2b.c I made a copy of
lib/crypto/blake2s.c and made the updates from BLAKE2s => BLAKE2b. This
way, the BLAKE2s and BLAKE2b code is kept consistent. Therefore, it
borrows the SPDX-License-Identifier and Copyright from
lib/crypto/blake2s.c rather than crypto/blake2b_generic.c.
The library API uses 'struct blake2b_ctx', consistent with other
lib/crypto/ APIs. The existing 'struct blake2b_state' will be removed
once the blake2b crypto_shash algorithms are updated to stop using it.

A couple more small cleanups to the BLAKE2s code before these things get
propagated into the BLAKE2b code:
- Drop 'const' from some non-pointer function parameters. It was a bit
excessive and not conventional.
- Rename 'block' argument of blake2s_compress*() to 'data'. This is for
consistency with the SHA-* code, and also to avoid the implication
that it points to a singular "block".
No functional changes.

For consistency with the SHA-1, SHA-2, SHA-3 (in development), and MD5
library APIs, rename blake2s_state to blake2s_ctx.
As a refresher, the ctx name:
- Is a bit shorter.
- Avoids confusion with the compression function state, which is also
often called the state (but is just part of the full context).
- Is consistent with OpenSSL.
Not a big deal, of course. But consistency is nice. With a BLAKE2b
library API about to be added, this is a convenient time to update this.

Reorder the parameters of blake2s() from (out, in, key, outlen, inlen,
keylen) to (key, keylen, in, inlen, out, outlen).
This aligns BLAKE2s with the common conventions of pairing buffers and
their lengths, and having outputs follow inputs. This is widely used
elsewhere in lib/crypto/ and crypto/, and even elsewhere in the BLAKE2s
code itself such as blake2s_init_key() and blake2s_final(). So
blake2s() was a bit of an exception.
Notably, this results in the same order as hmac_*_usingrawkey().
Note that since the type signature changed, it's not possible for a
blake2s() call site to be silently missed.

function and converts its two remaining callers
- "selftests/mm: uffd-stress fixes" from Dev Jain fixes some UFFD
selftests issues

the concept of "kernel file pages". Using these permits btrfs to
account its metadata pages to the root cgroup, rather than to the
cgroups of random inappropriate tasks

Wei Yang provides some readability improvements to the page allocator
code

indirection layer which now only redirects to a single thing
(zsmalloc)
- "mm: task_stack: Stack handling cleanups" from Pasha Tatashin makes a
couple of cleanups in the fork code

adjustments at various nth_page() callsites, eventually permitting
the removal of that undesirable helper function
- "introduce kasan.write_only option in hw-tags" from Yeoreum Yun
creates a KASAN read-only mode for ARM, using that architecture's
memory tagging feature. It is felt that a read-only mode KASAN is
suitable for use in production systems rather than debug-only
- "mm: hugetlb: cleanup hugetlb folio allocation" from Kefeng Wang does
some tidying in the hugetlb folio allocation code
- "mm: establish const-correctness for pointer parameters" from Max
Kellermann makes quite a number of the MM API functions more accurate
about the constness of their arguments. This was getting in the way
of subsystems (in this case CEPH) when they attempt to improving
their own const/non-const accuracy
- "Cleanup free_pages() misuse" from Vishal Moola fixes a number of
code sites which were confused over when to use free_pages() vs
__free_pages()

improvements" from David Hildenbrand adds a fix and some cleanups to
the thp selftesting code
- "mm, swap: introduce swap table as swap cache (phase I)" from Chris
Li and Kairui Song is the first step along the path to implementing
"swap tables" - a new approach to swap allocation and state tracking
which is expected to yield speed and space improvements. This
patchset itself yields a 5-20% performance benefit in some situations
- "Some ptdesc cleanups" from Matthew Wilcox utilizes the new memdesc
layer to clean up the ptdesc code a little
- "Fix va_high_addr_switch.sh test failure" from Chunyu Hu fixes some
issues in our 5-level pagetable selftesting code

Quanmin Yan makes some changes to DAMON in furtherance of supporting
arm highmem
- "selftests/mm: Add -Wunreachable-code and fix warnings" from Muhammad
Anjum adds that compiler check to selftests code and fixes the
fallout, by removing dead code
- "Improvements to Victim Process Thawing and OOM Reaper Traversal
Order" from zhongjinji makes a number of improvements in the OOM
killer: mainly thawing a more appropriate group of victim threads so
they can release resources
- "mm/damon: misc fixups and improvements for 6.18" from SeongJae Park
is a bunch of small and unrelated fixups for DAMON

to a recently-added bug fix
- "mm/damon/stat: expose auto-tuned intervals and non-idle ages" from
SeongJae Park provides additional transparency to userspace clients
of the DAMON_STAT information
- "Expand scope of khugepaged anonymous collapse" from Dev Jain removes
some constraints on khubepaged's collapsing of anon VMAs. It also
increases the success rate of MADV_COLLAPSE against an anon vma
- "mm: do not assume file == vma->vm_file in compat_vma_mmap_prepare()"
from Lorenzo Stoakes moves us further towards removal of
file_operations.mmap(). This patchset concentrates upon clearing up
the treatment of stacked filesystems
- "mm: Improve mlock tracking for large folios" from Kiryl Shutsemau
provides some fixes and improvements to mlock's tracking of large
folios. /proc/meminfo's "Mlocked" field became more accurate
- "mm/ksm: Fix incorrect accounting of KSM counters during fork" from
Donet Tom fixes several user-visible KSM stats inaccuracies across
forks and adds selftest code to verify these counters
- "mm_slot: fix the usage of mm_slot_entry" from Wei Yang addresses
some potential but presently benign issues in KSM's mm_slot handling
