git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni: "Core & protocols: - A significant effort all around the stack to guide the compiler to make the right choice when inlining code, to avoid unneeded calls for small helper and stack canary overhead in the fast-path. This generates better and faster code with very small or no text size increases, as in many cases the call generated more code than the actual inlined helper. - Extend AccECN implementation so that is now functionally complete, also allow the user-space enabling it on a per network namespace basis. - Add support for memory providers with large (above 4K) rx buffer. Paired with hw-gro, larger rx buffer sizes reduce the number of buffers traversing the stack, dincreasing single stream CPU usage by up to ~30%. - Do not add HBH header to Big TCP GSO packets. This simplifies the RX path, the TX path and the NIC drivers, and is possible because user-space taps can now interpret correctly such packets without the HBH hint. - Allow IPv6 routes to be configured with a gateway address that is resolved out of a different interface than the one specified, aligning IPv6 to IPv4 behavior. - Multi-queue aware sch_cake. This makes it possible to scale the rate shaper of sch_cake across multiple CPUs, while still enforcing a single global rate on the interface. - Add support for the nbcon (new buffer console) infrastructure to netconsole, enabling lock-free, priority-based console operations that are safer in crash scenarios. - Improve the TCP ipv6 output path to cache the flow information, saving cpu cycles, reducing cache line misses and stack use. - Improve netfilter packet tracker to resolve clashes for most protocols, avoiding unneeded drops on rare occasions. - Add IP6IP6 tunneling acceleration to the flowtable infrastructure. - Reduce tcp socket size by one cache line. - Notify neighbour changes atomically, avoiding inconsistencies between the notification sequence and the actual states sequence. - Add vsock namespace support, allowing complete isolation of vsocks across different network namespaces. - Improve xsk generic performances with cache-alignment-oriented optimizations. - Support netconsole automatic target recovery, allowing netconsole to reestablish targets when underlying low-level interface comes back online. Driver API: - Support for switching the working mode (automatic vs manual) of a DPLL device via netlink. - Introduce PHY ports representation to expose multiple front-facing media ports over a single MAC. - Introduce "rx-polarity" and "tx-polarity" device tree properties, to generalize polarity inversion requirements for differential signaling. - Add helper to create, prepare and enable managed clocks. Device drivers: - Add Huawei hinic3 PF etherner driver. - Add DWMAC glue driver for Motorcomm YT6801 PCIe ethernet controller. - Add ethernet driver for MaxLinear MxL862xx switches - Remove parallel-port Ethernet driver. - Convert existing driver timestamp configuration reporting to hwtstamp_get and remove legacy ioctl(). - Convert existing drivers to .get_rx_ring_count(), simplifing the RX ring count retrieval.

As there is only one rescuer per workqueue, a single long-blocking work item could cause high latency for all tasks queued behind it, even after memory pressure is relieved and regular kworkers become available to service them. - Add CONFIG_BOOTPARAM_WQ_STALL_PANIC build-time option and workqueue.panic_on_stall_time parameter for time-based stall panic, giving systems more control over workqueue stall handling. - Replace BUG_ON() with panic() in the stall panic path for clearer intent and more informative output. * tag 'wq-for-6.20' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq: workqueue: replace BUG_ON with panic in panic_on_wq_watchdog workqueue: add time-based panic for stalls workqueue: add CONFIG_BOOTPARAM_WQ_STALL_PANIC option workqueue: Process extra works in rescuer on memory pressure workqueue: Process rescuer work items one-by-one using a cursor workqueue: Make send_mayday() take a PWQ argument directly

2026-02-11printk: Add execution context (task name/CPU) to printk_infoBreno Leitao1-0/+12
Extend struct printk_info to include the task name, pid, and CPU number where printk messages originate. This information is captured at vprintk_store() time and propagated through printk_message to nbcon_write_context, making it available to nbcon console drivers. This is useful for consoles like netconsole that want to include execution context in their output, allowing correlation of messages with specific tasks and CPUs regardless of where the console driver actually runs. The feature is controlled by CONFIG_PRINTK_EXECUTION_CTX, which is automatically selected by CONFIG_NETCONSOLE_DYNAMIC. When disabled, the helper functions compile to no-ops with no overhead.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull VDSO updates from Thomas Gleixner: - Provide the missing 64-bit variant of clock_getres() This allows the extension of CONFIG_COMPAT_32BIT_TIME to the vDSO and finally the removal of 32-bit time types from the kernel and UAPI. - Remove the useless and broken getcpu_cache from the VDSO The intention was to provide a trivial way to retrieve the CPU number from the VDSO, but as the VDSO data is per process there is no way to make it work. - Switch get/put_unaligned() from packed struct to memcpy() The packed struct violates strict aliasing rules which requires to pass -fno-strict-aliasing to the compiler. As this are scalar values __builtin_memcpy() turns them into simple loads and stores - Use __typeof_unqual__() for __unqual_scalar_typeof() The get/put_unaligned() changes triggered a new sparse warning when __beNN types are used with get/put_unaligned() as sparse builds add a special 'bitwise' attribute to them which prevents sparse to evaluate the Generic in __unqual_scalar_typeof(). Newer sparse versions support __typeof_unqual__() which avoids the problem, but requires a recent sparse install. So this adds a sanity check to sparse builds, which validates that sparse is available and capable of handling it. - Force inline __cvdso_clock_getres_common() Compilers sometimes un-inline agressively, which results in function call overhead and problems with automatic stack variable initialization. Interestingly enough the force inlining results in smaller code than the un-inlined variant produced by GCC when optimizing for size. * tag 'timers-vdso-2026-02-09' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: vdso/gettimeofday: Force inlining of __cvdso_clock_getres_common() x86/percpu: Make CONFIG_USE_X86_SEG_SUPPORT work with sparse compiler: Use __typeof_unqual__() for __unqual_scalar_typeof() powerpc/vdso: Provide clock_getres_time64() tools headers: Remove unneeded ignoring of warnings in unaligned.h tools headers: Update the linux/unaligned.h copy with the kernel sources vdso: Switch get/put_unaligned() from packed struct to memcpy() parisc: Inline a type punning version of get_unaligned_le32() vdso: Remove struct getcpu_cache MIPS: vdso: Provide getres_time64() for 32-bit ABIs arm64: vdso32: Provide clock_getres_time64() ARM: VDSO: Provide clock_getres_time64() ARM: VDSO: Patch out __vdso_clock_getres() if unavailable x86/vdso: Provide clock_getres_time64() for x86-32 selftests: vDSO: vdso_test_abi: Add test for clock_getres_time64() selftests: vDSO: vdso_test_abi: Use UAPI system call numbers selftests: vDSO: vdso_config: Add configurations for clock_getres_time64() vdso: Add prototype for __vdso_clock_getres_time64()

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip 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. ) Rust integration updates: (Alice Ryhl, Fujita Tomonori, Boqun Feng) - Add support for Atomic<i8/i16/bool> and replace most Rust native AtomicBool usages with Atomic<bool> - Clean up LockClassKey and improve its documentation - Add missing Send and Sync trait implementation for SetOnce - Make ARef Unpin as it is supposed to be - Add __rust_helper to a few Rust helpers as a preparation for helper LTO - Inline various lock related functions to avoid additional function calls WW mutexes: - Extend ww_mutex tests and other test-ww_mutex updates (John Stultz) Misc fixes and cleanups: - rcu: Mark lockdep_assert_rcu_helper() __always_inline (Arnd Bergmann) - locking/local_lock: Include more missing headers (Peter Zijlstra) - seqlock: fix scoped_seqlock_read kernel-doc (Randy Dunlap) - rust: sync: Replace `kernel::c_str!` with C-Strings (Tamir Duberstein)" * tag 'locking-core-2026-02-08' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (90 commits) locking/rwlock: Fix write_trylock_irqsave() with CONFIG_INLINE_WRITE_TRYLOCK rcu: Mark lockdep_assert_rcu_helper() __always_inline compiler-context-analysis: Remove __assume_ctx_lock from initializers tomoyo: Use scoped init guard crypto: Use scoped init guard kcov: Use scoped init guard compiler-context-analysis: Introduce scoped init guards cleanup: Make __DEFINE_LOCK_GUARD handle commas in initializers seqlock: fix scoped_seqlock_read kernel-doc tools: Update context analysis macros in compiler_types.h rust: sync: Replace `kernel::c_str!` with C-Strings rust: sync: Inline various lock related methods rust: helpers: Move #define __rust_helper out of atomic.c rust: wait: Add __rust_helper to helpers rust: time: Add __rust_helper to helpers rust: task: Add __rust_helper to helpers rust: sync: Add __rust_helper to helpers rust: refcount: Add __rust_helper to helpers rust: rcu: Add __rust_helper to helpers rust: processor: Add __rust_helper to helpers ...

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiggers/linux Pull crypto library updates from Eric Biggers: - Add support for verifying ML-DSA signatures. ML-DSA (Module-Lattice-Based Digital Signature Algorithm) is a recently-standardized post-quantum (quantum-resistant) signature algorithm. It was known as Dilithium pre-standardization. The first use case in the kernel will be module signing. But there are also other users of RSA and ECDSA signatures in the kernel that might want to upgrade to ML-DSA eventually. - Improve the AES library: - Make the AES key expansion and single block encryption and decryption functions use the architecture-optimized AES code. Enable these optimizations by default. - Support preparing an AES key for encryption-only, using about half as much memory as a bidirectional key. - Replace the existing two generic implementations of AES with a single one. - Simplify how Adiantum message hashing is implemented.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/axboe/linux Pull bounce buffer dio for stable pages from Jens Axboe: "This adds support for bounce buffering of dio for stable pages. This was all done by Christoph. In his words: This series tries to address the problem that under I/O pages can be modified during direct I/O, even when the device or file system require stable pages during I/O to calculate checksums, parity or data operations. It does so by adding block layer helpers to bounce buffer an iov_iter into a bio, then wires that up in iomap and ultimately XFS. The reason that the file system even needs to know about it, is because reads need a user context to copy the data back, and the infrastructure to defer ioends to a workqueue currently sits in XFS. I'm going to look into moving that into ioend and enabling it for other file systems. Additionally btrfs already has it's own infrastructure for this, and actually an urgent need to bounce buffer, so this should be useful there and could be wire up easily. In fact the idea comes from patches by Qu that did this in btrfs. This patch fixes all but one xfstests failures on T10 PI capable devices (generic/095 seems to have issues with a mix of mmap and splice still, I'm looking into that separately), and make qemu VMs running Windows, or Linux with swap enabled fine on an XFS file on a device using PI.

2026-02-09lib/find_bit: fix uninitialized variable use in FIND_NTH_BITLee Yongjun1-1/+1
In the FIND_NTH_BIT macro, if the 'size' parameter is 0, both the loop conditions and the modulo condition are not met. Consequently, the 'tmp' variable remains uninitialized before being used in the 'found' label. This results in the following smatch errors: lib/find_bit.c:164 __find_nth_bit() error: uninitialized symbol 'tmp'. lib/find_bit.c:171 __find_nth_and_bit() error: uninitialized symbol 'tmp'. lib/find_bit.c:178 __find_nth_andnot_bit() error: uninitialized symbol 'tmp'. lib/find_bit.c:187 __find_nth_and_andnot_bit() error: uninitialized symbol 'tmp'. Initialize 'tmp' to 0 to ensure that fns() operates on a zeroed value (no bits set) when size is 0, preventing the use of garbage values. [Yury: size == 0 is generally a sign of error on client side, and in this case, any returned value is OK because the returned value would be greater than 'size'.

2026-02-09lib/tests: add KUnit test for bitopsRyota Sakamoto3-0/+156
Add a KUnit test suite for the bitops API. The existing 'lib/test_bitops.c' is preserved as-is because it contains ad-hoc micro-benchmarks 'test_fns' and is intended to ensure no compiler warnings from C=1 sparse checker or -Wextra compilations. Introduce 'lib/tests/bitops_kunit.c' for functional regression testing. It ports the test logic and data patterns from 'lib/test_bitops.c' to KUnit, verifying correct behavior across various input patterns and architecture-specific edge cases using isolated stack-allocated bitmaps. The following test logic has been ported from test_bitops_startup() in lib/test_bitops.c: - set_bit() / clear_bit() / find_first_bit() validation -> test_set_bit_clear_bit() - get_count_order() validation -> test_get_count_order() - get_count_order_long() validation -> test_get_count_order_long() Also improve the find_first_bit() test to check the full bitmap length (BITOPS_LENGTH) instead of omitting the last bit, ensuring the bitmap is completely empty after cleanup.

2026-02-05bootconfig: Terminate value search if it hits a newlineMasami Hiramatsu (Google)1-8/+19
Terminate the value search for a key if it hits a newline and make the value empty. When we pass a bootconfig with an empty value terminated by the newline, like below:: foo = bar = value Current bootconfig interprets it as a single entry:: foo = "bar = value"; The Documentation/admin-guide/bootconfig.rst defines the value itself is terminated by newline: The value has to be terminated by semi-colon (``;``) or newline (``\n``). but it does not define when the value search is terminated. This changes the behavior to be more line-oriented, so that it is clearer in how it works. - The value search of key-value pair will be terminated by a comment or newline. - The value search of an array will continue beyond comments and newlines. Thus, with this update, the above example is interpreted as:: foo = ""; bar = "value"; And the below example will cause a syntax error because "bar" is expected as a key but it has ','. foo = bar, buz According to this change, one wrong example config is updated.

This allows setting the number of workqueue stalls before triggering a kernel panic at build time, which is useful for high-availability systems that need consistent panic-on-stall, in other words, those servers which run with CONFIG_BOOTPARAM_*_PANIC=y already. The default remains 0 (disabled). Setting it to 1 will panic on the first stall, and higher values will panic after that many stall warnings. The value can still be overridden at runtime via the workqueue.panic_on_stall boot parameter or sysfs. Signed-off-by: Breno Leitao <leitao@debian.org> Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

2026-02-01alloc_tag: fix rw permission issue when handling boot parameterRan Xiaokai1-6/+16
Boot parameters prefixed with "sysctl." are processed during the final stage of system initialization via kernel_init()-> do_sysctl_args(). When CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_DEBUG is enabled, the sysctl.vm.mem_profiling entry is not writable and will cause a warning. Before run_init_process(), system initialization executes in kernel thread context. Use current->mm to distinguish sysctl writes during do_sysctl_args() from user-space triggered ones. And when the proc_handler is from do_sysctl_args(), always return success because the same value was already set by setup_early_mem_profiling() and this eliminates a permission denied warning.

2026-01-28compiler-context-analysis: Remove __assume_ctx_lock from initializersMarco Elver1-6/+0
Remove __assume_ctx_lock() from lock initializers. Implicitly asserting an active context during initialization caused false-positive double-lock errors when acquiring a lock immediately after its initialization. Moving forward, guarded member initialization must either: 1. Use guard(type_init)(&lock) or scoped_guard(type_init, ...). 2. Use context_unsafe() for simple initialization.

2026-01-28compiler-context-analysis: Introduce scoped init guardsMarco Elver1-8/+8
Add scoped init guard definitions for common synchronization primitives supported by context analysis. The scoped init guards treat the context as active within initialization scope of the underlying context lock, given initialization implies exclusive access to the underlying object. This allows initialization of guarded members without disabling context analysis, while documenting initialization from subsequent usage. The documentation is updated with the new recommendation. Where scoped init guards are not provided or cannot be implemented (ww_mutex omitted for lack of multi-arg guard initializers), the alternative is to just disable context analysis where guarded members are initialized.

2026-01-27lib/group_cpus: make group CPU cluster awareWangyang Guo1-65/+206
As CPU core counts increase, the number of NVMe IRQs may be smaller than the total number of CPUs. This forces multiple CPUs to share the same IRQ. If the IRQ affinity and the CPU's cluster do not align, a performance penalty can be observed on some platforms. This patch improves IRQ affinity by grouping CPUs by cluster within each NUMA domain, ensuring better locality between CPUs and their assigned NVMe IRQs. Details: Intel Xeon E platform packs 4 CPU cores as 1 module (cluster) and share the L2 cache. Let's say, if there are 40 CPUs in 1 NUMA domain and 11 IRQs to dispatch. The existing algorithm will map first 7 IRQs each with 4 CPUs and remained 4 IRQs each with 3 CPUs. The last 4 IRQs may have cross cluster issue. For example, the 9th IRQ which pinned to CPU32, then for CPU31, it will have cross L2 memory access. CPU |28 29 30 31|32 33 34 35|36 ... -------- -------- -------- IRQ 8 9 10 If this patch applied, then first 2 IRQs each mapped with 2 CPUs and rest 9 IRQs each mapped with 4 CPUs, which avoids the cross cluster memory access. CPU |00 01 02 03|04 05 06 07|08 09 10 11| ... ----- ----- ----------- ----------- IRQ 1 2 3 4 As a result, 15%+ performance difference is observed in FIO libaio/randread/bs=8k. Changes since V1: - Add more performance details in commit messages. - Fix endless loop when topology_cluster_cpumask return invalid mask.

The `struct kho_vmalloc` defines the in-memory layout for preserving vmalloc regions across kexec. This layout is a contract between kernels and part of the KHO ABI. To reflect this relationship, the related structs and helper macros are relocated to the ABI header, `include/linux/kho/abi/kexec_handover.h`. This move places the structure's definition under the protection of the KHO_FDT_COMPATIBLE version string. The structure and its components are now also documented within the ABI header to describe the contract and prevent ABI breaks.

2026-01-27lib/tests: convert test_min_heap module to KUnitRyota Sakamoto4-91/+79
Move lib/test_min_heap.c to lib/tests/min_heap_kunit.c and convert it to use KUnit. This change switches the ad-hoc test code to standard KUnit test cases. The test data remains the same, but the verification logic is updated to use KUNIT_EXPECT_* macros. Also remove CONFIG_TEST_MIN_HEAP from arch/*/configs/* because it is no longer used. The new CONFIG_MIN_HEAP_KUNIT_TEST will be automatically enabled by CONFIG_KUNIT_ALL_TESTS. The reasons for converting to KUnit are: 1. Standardization: Switching from ad-hoc printk-based reporting to the standard KTAP format makes it easier for CI systems to parse and report test results 2. Better Diagnostics: Using KUNIT_EXPECT_* macros automatically provides detailed diagnostics on failure. 3. Tooling Integration: It allows the test to be managed and executed using standard KUnit tools.

Reinitialize metadata for large zone device private folios in zone_device_page_init prior to creating a higher-order zone device private folio. This step is necessary when the folio's order changes dynamically between zone_device_page_init calls to avoid building a corrupt folio. As part of the metadata reinitialization, the dev_pagemap must be passed in from the caller because the pgmap stored in the folio page may have been overwritten with a compound head. Without this fix, individual pages could have invalid pgmap fields and flags (with PG_locked being notably problematic) due to prior different order allocations, which can, and will, result in kernel crashes.

Furthermore, with automatic stack variable initialization (CONFIG_INIT_STACK_ALL_ZERO or CONFIG_INIT_STACK_ALL_PATTERN) GCC can emit a call to memset() which is not valid in the vDSO. Mark __cvdso_clock_getres_common() as __always_inline to avoid both issues. Paradoxically the inlining even reduces the size of the code: $ ./scripts/bloat-o-meter arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso/vgettimeofday-32.o.before arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso/vgettimeofday-32.o.after add/remove: 0/1 grow/shrink: 1/1 up/down: 52/-148 (-96) Function old new delta __c_kernel_clock_getres_time64 92 144 +52 __c_kernel_clock_getres 136 132 -4 __cvdso_clock_getres_common 144 - -144 Total: Before=2788, After=2692, chg -3.44% With CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_PERFORMANCE=y the functions are always inlined and therefore the behaviour stays the same.

2026-01-21watchdog: softlockup: panic when lockup duration exceeds N thresholdsLi RongQing1-6/+7
The softlockup_panic sysctl is currently a binary option: panic immediately or never panic on soft lockups. Panicking on any soft lockup, regardless of duration, can be overly aggressive for brief stalls that may be caused by legitimate operations. Conversely, never panicking may allow severe system hangs to persist undetected. Extend softlockup_panic to accept an integer threshold, allowing the kernel to panic only when the normalized lockup duration exceeds N watchdog threshold periods. This provides finer-grained control to distinguish between transient delays and persistent system failures. The accepted values are: - 0: Don't panic (unchanged) - 1: Panic when duration >= 1 * threshold (20s default, original behavior) - N > 1: Panic when duration >= N * threshold (e.g., 2 = 40s, 3 = 60s.) The original behavior is preserved for values 0 and 1, maintaining full backward compatibility while allowing systems to tolerate brief lockups while still catching severe, persistent hangs.
