12 daysmm/sparse-vmemmap: fix DAX vmemmap accounting with optimizationMuchun Song1-4/+30
[ Upstream commit 721a73e30c9e3e8fcffe1725bcede1bbd20b4918 ] When vmemmap optimization is enabled for DAX, the nr_memmap_pages counter in /proc/vmstat is incorrect. The current code always accounts for the full, non-optimized vmemmap size, but vmemmap optimization reduces the actual number of vmemmap pages by reusing tail pages. This causes the system to overcount vmemmap usage, leading to inaccurate page statistics in /proc/vmstat. Fix this by introducing section_nr_vmemmap_pages(), which returns the exact vmemmap page count for a given pfn range based on whether optimization is in effect.

12 daysmm/sparse-vmemmap: pass @pgmap argument to memory deactivation pathsMuchun Song3-14/+15
[ Upstream commit 3bbc54dd1b62f1a4b218c70aafbeceeba7c90c5d ] Currently, the memory hot-remove call chain -- arch_remove_memory(), __remove_pages(), sparse_remove_section() and section_deactivate() -- does not carry the struct dev_pagemap pointer. This prevents the lower levels from knowing whether the section was originally populated with vmemmap optimizations (e.g., DAX with vmemmap optimization enabled). Without this information, we cannot call vmemmap_can_optimize() to determine if the vmemmap pages were optimized. As a result, the vmemmap page accounting during teardown will mistakenly assume a non-optimized allocation, leading to incorrect memmap statistics. To lay the groundwork for fixing the vmemmap page accounting, we need to pass the @pgmap pointer down to the deactivation location. Plumb the @pgmap argument through the APIs of arch_remove_memory(), __remove_pages() and sparse_remove_section(), mirroring the corresponding *_activate() paths.

12 daysmm/slab: fix a memory leak due to bootstrapping sheaves twiceHarry Yoo (Oracle)1-2/+7
commit 1dba91a0493b7ffe9cbbcf7a8df1b361ddcac515 upstream. When kmalloc caches are aliased, multiple cache pointers reference the same kmem_cache. As a result, iterating over kmalloc indices and bootstrapping sheaves can bootstrap the same cache more than once and leak memory. Currently, this could happen when the architecture specifies minimum alignment for slab caches that is larger than ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN. Bootstrap sheaves only when the cache does not have them already. Add a warning when bootstrap_cache_sheaves() is called for a cache that already has sheaves enabled.

12 daysmm/slub: fix lost local objects when bulk remote free batch fillsShengming Hu1-7/+5
commit af9ea231c0b4530edc389a3126a69e0699b7699d upstream. In free_to_pcs_bulk(), when remote_objects[] fills to PCS_BATCH_MAX, the code jumps to flush_remote to free the batch. If all remote entries have already been compacted out of p[] via tail swaps while local objects remain, the flush_remote path returns early since `i < size` no longer holds. The leftover local objects are then neither cached in the sheaf nor returned to the slab freelist, causing a memory leak. For illustration: size = 64, local objects at p[0..31], remote objects at p[32..63] After scanning all remotes: i = 32, size = 32 p[0..31] local objects are dropped. Harry pointed out that, although the logic contains a real leak, it does not appear to be triggerable with the current in-tree users. To hit this path, at least PCS_BATCH_MAX objects, currently hardcoded to 32, need to be collected in remote_objects[]. Looking at current kmem_cache_free_bulk() users: * maple_node has sheaf_capacity = 32 * skbuff_head_cache has sheaf_capacity = 28 * panthor and msm drivers have sheaf_capacity = 4 The sheaf capacity is, at least for now, derived purely from the object size, with the user-requested capacity used as a minimum. Therefore, among the current users, only maple_node has a sheaf_capacity large enough to reach PCS_BATCH_MAX. However, for the bug to trigger in maple_node, all objects in the sheaf would have to be from remote nodes. In that case, there would be no local objects left to leak. So this issue was found by code review rather than from a runtime report, and it does not seem to be triggerable by current users. Still, the bug could become reachable with future users, a different sheaf capacity, or a change to PCS_BATCH_MAX. Fix the logic by freeing a full remote batch in place during the scan and then continuing to process the compacted array. This keeps all local objects on the normal fast path, while the tail path only handles any leftover partial remote batch. The redundant next_remote_batch jump label is removed as well.

12 daysmm/huge_memory: set PG_has_hwpoisoned only after new folio head is establishedRik van Riel1-4/+8
commit e1cd30eceb6908fc13bebce41283b885d71ee8d6 upstream. __split_folio_to_order() copies the hwpoison state onto each new sub-folio while splitting a folio to a non-zero order. It does so via if (handle_hwpoison && page_range_has_hwpoisoned(new_head, new_nr_pages)) folio_set_has_hwpoisoned(new_folio); *before* clear_compound_head(new_head)/prep_compound_page(new_head, ...) turns @new_head from a tail page into a proper folio head. PG_has_hwpoisoned is a FOLIO_SECOND_PAGE flag, so folio_set_has_hwpoisoned() resolves to folio_flags(folio, 1). With the new compound_info-based page-flags layout, folio_flags() asserts the page is not a tail: VM_BUG_ON_PGFLAGS(page->compound_info & 1, page); VM_BUG_ON_PGFLAGS(n > 0 && !test_bit(PG_head, &page->flags.f), page); At the current call site @new_head still has the tail marker (compound_info bit 0 set, PG_head clear), so on CONFIG_DEBUG_VM kernels this hits: kernel BUG at include/linux/page-flags.h:354 folio_flags+0x82 folio_set_has_hwpoisoned __split_folio_to_order __split_unmapped_folio __folio_split truncate_inode_partial_folio (shmem hole-punch / MADV_REMOVE) Reproduced by syzkaller: hwpoison-inject a few subpages of a large shmem folio, then MADV_REMOVE (fallocate punch hole) on the same range, which splits the partial folio to a non-zero order. memory_failure() tries to split the poisoned folio to order 0 first, but that split is best-effort; when it fails the folio is left large with PG_has_hwpoisoned set, the case fa5a06170036 added this hwpoison copying for. Move the folio_set_has_hwpoisoned() call to after clear_compound_head()/prep_compound_page(), where @new_folio is a real order-new_order head folio (handle_hwpoison implies new_order != 0, so a second page always exists). The flag still lands on the same struct page (page[1] of the new folio); only the ordering relative to compound-head setup changes, satisfying the FOLIO_SECOND_PAGE precondition.

12 daysmm/page_vma_mapped: fix device-private PMD handlingWei Yang1-14/+17
commit f84ca9b1888d8fce7dfefe0e750fa971f8797486 upstream. Commit 65edfda6f3f2 ("mm/rmap: extend rmap and migration support device-private entries") introduced the concept of device-private PMD entries, but did not correctly update the rmap walk code to account for them. As a result, when page_vma_mapped_walk() encounters device-private PMD entries, it takes no action other than to acquire the PMD lock and exit. However this is highly problematic for two reasons - firstly, device private entries possess a PFN so check_pmd() needs to be called to ensure an overlapping PFN range. Secondly, and more importantly, if PVMW_MIGRATION is set the caller assumes the returned entry is a migration entry, resulting in memory corruption when the caller tries to interpret the device private entry as such. In addition, commit 146287290023 ("mm/huge_memory: implement device-private THP splitting") allowed device private PMDs to be split like THP mappings, but again did not update this code path. As a result, we might race a PMD split prior to acquiring the PMD lock. This patch addresses all of these issues by invoking check_pmd(), ensuring PMVW_MIGRATION is not set and checks whether a split raced us we do for PMD THP and migration entries. Instead of checking for a subset of the cases after taking the pmd_lock(), put device-private along with pmd_trans_huge() and pmd_is_migration_entry(). Also remove thp_migration_supported() as it is already guarded by pmd_is_migration_entry().

12 daysmm/kmemleak: fix checksum computation for per-cpu objectsBreno Leitao1-3/+4
commit 79c37ae3733e93d9d8ea12ecb44f717e61439024 upstream. The per-cpu object checksum folds each CPU's CRC together with XOR and seeds every CRC with 0. Both choices make update_checksum() miss content changes: - XOR is self-cancelling, so equal contents on two CPUs cancel out and simultaneous identical changes leave the checksum unchanged. - crc32(0, ...) over all-zero content is 0, so a freshly allocated, zeroed per-cpu area checksums to 0, matching the initial value, and the object is never seen to change. See discussions at [0]. When update_checksum() wrongly reports an actively modified object as unchanged, kmemleak stops greying it for an extra scan and can report a live per-cpu object as a leak. Fold the per-cpu CRC as a single rolling checksum across all CPUs and initialise the object checksum to ~0 so the first computed value always registers as a change, even for content that hashes to 0. reset_checksum() is seeded the same way.

12 daysmm/damon/core: disallow overlapping input ranges for damon_set_regions()SJ Park1-2/+9
commit 954157679ec34661c2e87e7eb796104a797c32db upstream. damon_set_regions() assumes the input ranges are sorted by the address and don't overlap each other. Hence the assumption was initially to be explicitly validated. But commit 97d482f4592f ("mm/damon/sysfs: reuse damon_set_regions() for regions setting") has mistakenly removed the validation. This can make DAMON behave in unexpected ways. At the best, the monitoring results snapshot will just look weird since there will be overlapping regions. DAMOS will also work weirdly, applying the same action multiple times for overlapping regions, and make DAMOS quota weird. More seriously, depending on the setup and regions updates sequence, negative size regions can be made. It will trigger WARN_ONCE() if the kernel is built with CONFIG_DAMON_DEBUG_SANITY=y. Depending on the monitoring results, the negative size region can further trigger division by zero in damon_merge_two_regions(). Note that some of the consequences including the WARN_ONCE() and the divide by zero depend on commits that were introduced after the root cause commit 97d482f4592f ("mm/damon/sysfs: reuse damon_set_regions() for regions setting"). Fix the problems by checking the assumption and returning an error if the input ranges don't meet the assumption. The issue was discovered [1] by Sashiko.

commit 1292c0ecb1caefb8ca064a3639d5673991e8810c upstream. DAMON core logic assumes zero length regions don't exist. However, a few DAMON API callers including DAMON_SYSFS, DAMON_RECLAIM and DAMON_LRU_SORT allow users to set empty monitoring target regions.

For example, the WANR_ONCE() can be triggered like below. # grep DAMON_DEBUG_SANITY /boot/config-$(uname -r) # CONFIG_DAMON_DEBUG_SANITY=y # damo start # cd /sys/kernel/mm/damon/admin/kdamonds/0 # echo 0 > contexts/0/targets/0/regions/0/start # echo 0 > contexts/0/targets/0/regions/0/end # echo commit > state # dmesg [....] [ 73.705780] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 73.707552] start 0 >= end 0 [ 73.708452] WARNING: mm/damon/core.c:359 at damon_new_region+0x6e/0x80, CPU#1: kdamond.0/758 [...] All DAMON API callers eventually use damon_set_regions() to setup the regions.

2026-07-24mm/damon/core: trace esz at first setupSeongJae Park1-0/+2
commit 7e6cc35f5283eab81a14231a64ecd640b690c48c upstream. DAMON traces effective size quota from the second update, only if a change has been made by the update. Tracing only changed updates was an intentional decision to avoid unnecessary same value tracing. Always skipping the first value is just an unintended mistake. The mistake makes the tracepoint based investigation incomplete, because the first effective size quota is never traced. It is not a big issue when the 'consist' quota tuner is used, because it keeps changing the quota in the usual setup. However, when the 'temporal' tuner is used, the quota value is not changed before the goal achievement status is completely changed. For example, if the DAMOS scheme is started with an under-achieved goal, the quota is set to the maximum value, and kept the same value until the goal is achieved. Because DAMON skips the first value, the user cannot know what effective quota the current scheme is using. Only after the goal is achieved, the effective quota is changed to zero, and traced. Unconditionally trace the initial quota value to fix this problem. Note that the 'temporal' quota tuner was introduced by commit af738a6a00c1 ("mm/damon/core: introduce DAMOS_QUOTA_GOAL_TUNER_TEMPORAL"), which was added to 7.1-rc1. But even with the 'consist' quota tuner, the tracing is unintentionally incomplete. Hence this commit marks the introduction of the trace event as the broken commit.

commit cd681403a87085562499d60325b7b45d3be11217 upstream. If DAX memory is hotplugged into an unoccupied subsection of an early section, section_activate() reuses the unoptimized boot memmap. However, compound_nr_pages() still assumes that vmemmap optimization is in effect and initializes only the reduced number of struct pages. As a result, the remaining tail struct pages are left uninitialized, which can later lead to unexpected behavior or crashes. Fix this by treating early sections as unoptimized when calculating how many struct pages to initialize.

2026-07-24mm/damon/sysfs-schemes: put stats for scheme_add_dirs() internal errorSeongJae Park1-4/+4
commit 05ea83ee88ca70f8932906d9f2617ff996f45b50 upstream. damon_sysfs_scheme_add_dirs() setup the tried_regions directory after the stats directory setup is completed. When the tried_regions directory setup is failed, the setup function ensures the reference for the tried regions directory is released. Hence the error path should put references on setup succeeded directory objects, starting from the stats directory. However, the error path is putting the tried_regions directory instead of the stats directory. As a direct result, the stats directory object is leaked. Worse yet, if the tried_regions directory setup failed from the initial allocation, the scheme->tried_regions field remains uninitialized.

commit d58fdbe37a829fd2e5803dd4e5a72992dd8c5368 upstream. Patch series "mm/damon/sysfs-schemes: fix wrong directories put orders in error paths". Error paths of damon_sysfs_access_pattern_add_dirs() and damon_sysfs_scheme_add_dirs() functions put references to directories in wrong orders. As a result, uninitialized memory dereference and/or memory leak can happen. Fix those. This patch (of 2): In access_pattern_add_dirs(), error handling path puts references starting from setup failed directories. If the failure happpened from the initial allication in the setup functions, uninitialized memory dereference happen. The allocation failures will not commonly happen, but the consequence is quite bad. Fix the wrong reference put orders. The issue was discovered [1] by Sashiko.

2026-07-24mm/damon/core: always put unsuccessfully committed target pidsSeongJae Park1-8/+47
commit 6a66c557a2ab2609575bafd15e093669c05f9711 upstream. damon_commit_target() puts and gets the destination and the source target pids. It puts the destination target pid because it will be overwritten by the source target pid. It gets the source pid because the caller is supposed to eventually put the pids. In more detail, the caller will call damon_destroy_ctx() after damon_commit_ctx() to destroy the entire source context. And in this case, [f]vaddr operation set's cleanup_target() callback will put the pids. The commit operation is made at the context level. The operation can fail in multiple places including in the middle and after the targets commit operations. For any such failures, immediately the error is returned to the damon_commit_ctx() caller. If some or all of the source target pids were committed to the destination during the unsuccessful context commit attempt, those pids should be put twice. The source context will do the put operations using the above explained routine. However, let's suppose the destination context was not originally using [f]vaddr operation set and the commit failed before the ops of the source context is committed. The destination does not have the cleanup_target() ops callback, so it cannot put the pids via the damon_destroy_ctx(). As a result, the pids are leaked. The issue in the real world would be not very common. The commit feature is for changing parameters of running DAMON context while inheriting internal status like the monitoring results. The monitoring results of a physical address range ain't have things that are beneficial to be inherited to a virtual address ranges monitoring. So the problem-causing DAMON control would be not very common in the real world. That said, it is a supported feature. And damon_commit_target() failure due to memory allocation is relatively realistic [1] if there are a huge number of target regions. Fix by putting the pids in the commit operation in case of the failures. The issue was discovered [2] by Sashiko.

2026-07-24mm/memory_hotplug: fix incorrect altmap passing in error pathMuchun Song1-1/+1
commit 2fac4afa0e2e68841334c78c1821e49f74fbc66a upstream. In create_altmaps_and_memory_blocks(), when arch_add_memory() succeeds with memmap_on_memory enabled, the vmemmap pages are allocated from params.altmap. If create_memory_block_devices() subsequently fails, the error path calls arch_remove_memory() with a NULL altmap instead of params.altmap. This is a bug that could lead to memory corruption. Since altmap is NULL, vmemmap_free() falls back to freeing the vmemmap pages into the system buddy allocator via free_pages() instead of the altmap. arch_remove_memory() then immediately destroys the physical linear mapping for this memory. This injects unowned pages into the buddy allocator, causing machine checks or memory corruption if the system later attempts to allocate and use those freed pages. Fix this by passing params.altmap to arch_remove_memory() in the error path.

2026-07-24mm/hugetlb: fix hugetlb cgroup rsvd charge/uncharge mismatchDeepanshu Kartikey1-3/+4
commit 15807d0ddde37407af72859426b654f3d1972b00 upstream. In alloc_hugetlb_folio(), a single h_cg pointer is used for both the rsvd and non-rsvd hugetlb cgroup charges. When map_chg is set, hugetlb_cgroup_charge_cgroup_rsvd() stores the charged cgroup in h_cg, but the immediately following hugetlb_cgroup_charge_cgroup() overwrites h_cg with the non-rsvd cgroup pointer. As a result, hugetlb_cgroup_commit_charge_rsvd() stores the wrong (non-rsvd) cgroup pointer into the folio's rsvd slot. When the folio is later freed, free_huge_folio() unconditionally calls both hugetlb_cgroup_uncharge_folio() and hugetlb_cgroup_uncharge_folio_rsvd(). The rsvd uncharge reads back the wrong cgroup from the folio and decrements a counter that was never charged for that cgroup, causing a page_counter underflow: page_counter underflow: -512 nr_pages=512 WARNING: mm/page_counter.c:61 at page_counter_cancel Fix this by introducing a separate h_cg_rsvd pointer exclusively for the rsvd charge path, keeping the rsvd and non-rsvd charges fully independent through their charge, commit, and error uncharge paths.

2026-07-24mm/mm_init: fix pageblock migratetype for ZONE_DEVICE compound pagesMuchun Song1-15/+19
commit 94405c6136839f7c462249c8b4b957bcb9527a9d upstream. The memmap_init_zone_device() function only initializes the migratetype of the first pageblock of a compound page. If the compound page size exceeds pageblock_nr_pages (e.g., 1GB hugepages with 2MB pageblocks), subsequent pageblocks in the compound page remain uninitialized. Move the migratetype initialization out of __init_zone_device_page() and into a separate pageblock_migratetype_init_range() function. This iterates over the entire PFN range of the memory, ensuring that all pageblocks are correctly initialized. Also remove the stale confusing comment about MEMINIT_HOTPLUG above the migratetype setting since it is an obsolete relic from commit 966cf44f637e ("mm: defer ZONE_DEVICE page initialization to the point where we init pgmap") and no longer makes sense here.

2026-07-24mm/sparse-vmemmap: fix vmemmap accounting underflowMuchun Song1-8/+12
commit c373f7f98e6ad591c85d40548cf8b6443be69311 upstream. Patch series "mm: Fix vmemmap optimization accounting and initialization", v8. The series fixes several bugs in vmemmap optimization, mainly around incorrect page accounting and memmap initialization in DAX and memory hotplug paths. It also fixes pageblock migratetype initialization and struct page initialization for ZONE_DEVICE compound pages. Patches 1-4 fix vmemmap accounting issues. Patch 1 fixes an accounting underflow in the section activation failure path by moving vmemmap page accounting into the lower-level allocation and freeing helpers. Patch 2 fixes incorrect altmap passing in the memory hotplug error path. Patch 3 passes pgmap through memory deactivation paths so the teardown side can determine whether vmemmap optimization was in effect. Patch 4 uses that information to account the optimized DAX vmemmap size correctly. Patches 5-6 fix initialization issues in mm/mm_init. One makes sure all pageblocks in ZONE_DEVICE compound pages get their migratetype initialized. The other fixes a case where DAX memory hotplug reuses an unoptimized early-section memmap while compound_nr_pages() still assumes vmemmap optimization, leaving tail struct pages uninitialized. This patch (of 6): In section_activate(), if populate_section_memmap() fails, the error handling path calls section_deactivate() to roll back the state. This causes a vmemmap accounting imbalance. Since commit c3576889d87b ("mm: fix accounting of memmap pages"), memmap pages are accounted for only after populate_section_memmap() succeeds. However, the failure path unconditionally calls section_deactivate(), which decreases the vmemmap count. Consequently, a failure in populate_section_memmap() leads to an accounting underflow, incorrectly reducing the system's tracked vmemmap usage. Fix this more thoroughly by moving all accounting calls into the lower level functions that actually perform the vmemmap allocation and freeing: - populate_section_memmap() accounts for newly allocated vmemmap pages - depopulate_section_memmap() unaccounts when vmemmap is freed This ensures proper accounting in all code paths, including error handling and early section cases.

2026-07-24simpe_xattr: use per-sb cacheMiklos Szeredi1-4/+9
[ Upstream commit 1e7cd8a53b72a58a44c4d282aed95f6ce0e76db0 ] Move the hash table to the super block to remove excessive overhead in case of small number of xattrs per inode. Add linked list to the inode, used for listxattr and eviction. Listxattr uses rcu protection to iterate the list of xattrs. Before being made per-sb, lazy allocation was protected by inode lock. Now inode lock no longer provides sufficient exclusion, so use cmpxchg() to ensure atomicity. Though I haven't found a description of this pattern, after some research it seems that cmpxchg_release() and READ_ONCE() should provide the necessary memory barriers. Use simple_xattr_free_rcu() in simple_xattrs_free(). This is needed because the hash table is now shared between inodes and lookup on a different inode might be running the compare function on the just freed element within the RCU grace period. Following stats are based on slabinfo diff, after creating 100k empty files, then adding a "user.test=foo" xattr to each: v7.0 (no rhashtable): File creation: 993.40 bytes/file Xattr addition: 79.99 bytes/file v7.1-rc2 (per-inode rhashtable): File creation: 939.73 bytes/file Xattr addition: 1296.08 bytes/file v7.1-rc2 + this patch (per-sb rhashtable) File creation: 946.84 bytes/file Xattr addition: 111.86 bytes/file The overhead of a single xattr is reduced to nearly v7.0 levels. The per xattr overhead is slightly larger due to the addition of three pointers to struct simple_xattr.

2026-07-24simple_xattr: change interface to pass struct simple_xattrs **Miklos Szeredi1-24/+10
[ Upstream commit 076e5cef28e27febfc09b5f72544d2b857c75201 ] Change the simple_xattr API to accept pointer-to-pointer (struct simple_xattrs **) instead of pointer. This allows the functions to handle lazy allocation internally without requiring callers to use simple_xattrs_lazy_alloc(). The simple_xattr_set(), simple_xattr_set_limited() and simple_xattr_add() functions now handle allocation when xattrs is NULL. simple_xattrs_free() now also frees the xattrs structure itself and sets the pointer to NULL. This simplifies callers and removes the need for most callers to explicitly manage xattrs allocation and lifetime. In shmem_initxattrs(), the total required space for all initial xattrs (ispace) is pre-calculated and deducted from sbinfo->free_ispace. Since this patch modifies the function to add new xattrs directly to the inode's &info->xattrs list rather than using a local temporary variable, a failure means that the partially populated info->xattrs list remains attached to the inode. When the VFS caller handles the -ENOMEM error, it drops the newly created inode via iput(), shmem_free_inode() adds freed to sbinfo->free_ispace a second time, permanently inflating the tmpfs free space quota. Fix by substracting already added xattrs from ispace.

That value is later passed as the original allocation size to __slab_alloc_node(), slab_post_alloc_hook() and kasan_kmalloc().

2026-07-24mm/fake-numa: fix under-allocation detection in uniform splitSang-Heon Jeon1-4/+13
[ Upstream commit 3a3fc1dfd6a958615ebaab8fb251e89fc2b3f2f2 ] When splitting NUMA node uniformly, split_nodes_size_interleave_uniform() returns the next absolute node ID, not the number of nodes created. The existing under-allocation detection logic compares next absolute node ID (ret) and request count (n), which only works when nid starts at 0. For example, on a system with 2 physical NUMA nodes (node 0: 2GB, node 1: 128MB) and numa=fake=8U, 8 fake nodes are successfully created from node 0 and split_nodes_size_interleave_uniform() returns 8. For node 1, fake node nid starts at 8, but only 4 fake nodes are created due to current FAKE_NODE_MIN_SIZE being 32MB, and split_nodes_size_interleave_uniform() returns 12. By existing under-allocation detection logic, "ret < n" (12 < 8) is false, so the under-allocation will not be detected. Fix under-allocation detection logic to compare the number of actually created nodes (ret - nid) against the request count (n). Also skip under-allocation detection logic for memoryless physical nodes where no fake nodes are created.

This results in odd edgecases like: 1) mount/bind-mount with an idmap userA:userB:1 2) userB runs an owner_or_capable() check on file that is owned by userA on-disk/in-memory, but owned by userB after idmap translation 3) owner_or_capable() mysteriously fails as the correct idmap wasn't supplied In the case of mincore/madvise MADV_PAGEOUT, this is usually benign, because file_permission(file, MAY_WRITE) will probably succeed, as it uses the proper idmap internally, but it does not need to be the case on e.g a 0444 file where even the owner itself doesn't have permissions to write to it. Since this is clearly not trivial to get right, introduce a file_owner_or_capable() that can carry the correct semantics, and switch the various users in mm to it. The issue was found by manual code inspection & an off-list discussion with Jan Kara.

2026-07-18mm: fix mmap errno value when MAP_DROPPABLE is not supportedAnthony Yznaga1-1/+1
commit d86c9e971af2315119a78c564a802fafcebf1b6b upstream. Patch series "fix MAP_DROPPABLE not supported errno", v4. Mark Brown reported seeing a regression in -next on 32 bit arm with the mlock selftests. Before exiting and marking the tests failed, the following message was logged after an attempt to create a MAP_DROPPABLE mapping: Bail out! mmap error: Unknown error 524 It turns out error 524 is ENOTSUPP which is an error that userspace is not supposed to see, but it indicates in this instance that MAP_DROPPABLE is not supported. The first patch changes the errno returned to EOPNOTSUPP. The second patch is a second version of a prior patch to introduce selftests to verify locking behavior with droppable mappings with the additional change to skip the tests when MAP_DROPPABLE is not supported. The third patch fixes the MAP_DROPPABLE selftest so that it is run by the framework and skips if MAP_DROPPABLE is not supported. This patch (of 3): On configs where MAP_DROPPABLE is not supported (currently any 32-bit config except for PPC32), mmap fails with errno set to ENOTSUPP. However, ENOTSUPP is not a standard error value that userspace knows about. The acceptable userspace-visible errno to use is EOPNOTSUPP. checkpatch.pl has a warning to this effect.

2026-07-18mm/slab: do not limit zeroing to orig_size when only red zoning is enabledVlastimil Babka (SUSE)1-8/+10
commit 648927ceb84021a25a0fbd5673740956f318d534 upstream. When init (zeroing) on allocation is requested, for kmalloc() we generally have to zero the full object size even if a smaller size is requested, in order to provide krealloc()'s __GFP_ZERO guarantees. But if we track the requested size, krealloc() uses that information to do the right thing, so we can zero only the requested size. With red zoning also enabled, any extra size became part of the red zone, so it must not be zeroed and thus we must zero only the requested size. However the current check is imprecise, and will trigger also when only SLAB_RED_ZONE is enabled without SLAB_STORE_USER (which enables tracking the requested size). This means enabling red zoning alone can compromise krealloc()'s __GFP_ZERO contract. Fix this by using slub_debug_orig_size() instead, which is the exact check for whether the requested size is tracked. We don't need to care if red zoning is also enabled or not. Also update and expand the comment accordingly.

2026-07-18mm/swap: add cond_resched() in swap_reclaim_full_clusters to prevent softlockupZijiang Huang1-0/+1
commit 66366d291f666ddeda5f8c84f253e308de3e6b55 upstream. We hit a real softlockup in an internal stress test environment. The workload was LTP memory/swap stress on a large arm64 machine, with 320 CPUs, about 1TB memory and an 8.6GB swap device. The system was under heavy load and the swap device had a large number of full clusters. The softlockup was triggered during a stress test after about 3 days. So, add periodic cond_resched() calls during large full_clusters reclaim operations to prevent softlockup issues.

2026-07-18mm: swap_cgroup: fix NULL deref in lookup_swap_cgroup_id on swapless hostJose Fernandez (Anthropic)1-0/+2
commit 63b02a9409cb5180398491b093e48bcb5315f5fb upstream. lookup_swap_cgroup_id() passes swap_cgroup_ctrl[type].map to __swap_cgroup_id_lookup() without checking that the type was ever registered via swap_cgroup_swapon(). On a swapless host every ctrl->map is NULL, so __swap_cgroup_id_lookup() dereferences NULL + a scaled swp_offset(). Since commit bea67dcc5eea ("mm: attempt to batch free swap entries for zap_pte_range()"), zap_pte_range() -> swap_pte_batch() calls lookup_swap_cgroup_id() on any non-present, non-none PTE that decodes as a real swap entry, without first validating it against swap_info[]. A single PTE corrupted into a type-0 swap entry takes the host down at process exit. We hit this in production on a swapless 6.12.58 host: ~1s of "get_swap_device: Bad swap file entry 3f800204222bb" (do_swap_page() being correctly defensive about the same entry) followed by BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: 000003f800204220 RIP: 0010:lookup_swap_cgroup_id+0x2b/0x60 Call Trace: swap_pte_batch+0xbf/0x230 zap_pte_range+0x4c8/0x780 unmap_page_range+0x190/0x3e0 exit_mmap+0xd9/0x3c0 do_exit+0x20c/0x4b0 syzbot has reported the identical stack. The source of the PTE corruption is a separate bug; this change makes the teardown path as robust as the fault path already is. Every other caller of lookup_swap_cgroup_id() is downstream of a get_swap_device() that has already validated the entry, so the new branch is cold.

2026-07-18mm: shrinker: fix NULL pointer dereference in debugfsQi Zheng1-4/+6
commit e30453c61e185e914fde83c650e268067b140218 upstream. shrinker_debugfs_add() creates both "count" and "scan" debugfs files unconditionally. That assumes every shrinker implements both count_objects() and scan_objects(), which is not guaranteed. For example, the xen-backend shrinker sets count_objects() but leaves scan_objects() NULL, so writing to its scan file calls through a NULL function pointer and panics the kernel: BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000 RIP: 0010:0x0 Code: Unable to access opcode bytes at 0xffffffffffffffd6.

2026-07-18mm: shrinker: fix shrinker_info teardown race with expansionQi Zheng1-2/+11
commit 65476d31d8056e859c48580f82295ce159196ffe upstream. expand_shrinker_info() iterates all visible memcgs under shrinker_mutex, including memcgs that have not finished ->css_online() yet. Once pn->shrinker_info has been published, teardown must stay serialized with expand_shrinker_info() until that memcg is either fully online or no longer visible to iteration. Today alloc_shrinker_info() breaks that rule by dropping shrinker_mutex before freeing a partially initialized shrinker_info array, which may cause the following race: CPU0 CPU1 ==== ==== css_create --> list_add_tail_rcu(&css->sibling, &parent_css->children); online_css --> mem_cgroup_css_online --> alloc_shrinker_info --> alloc node0 info rcu_assign_pointer(C->node0->shrinker_info, old0) alloc node1 info -> FAIL -> goto err mutex_unlock(shrinker_mutex) shrinker_alloc() --> shrinker_memcg_alloc --> mutex_lock(shrinker_mutex) expand_shrinker_info --> mem_cgroup_iter see the memcg expand_one_shrinker_info --> old0 = C->node0->shrinker_info memcpy(new->unit, old0->unit, ...); free_shrinker_info --> kvfree(old0); /* double free !! */ kvfree_rcu(old0, rcu); The same problem exists later in mem_cgroup_css_online(). If alloc_shrinker_info() succeeds but a subsequent objcg allocation fails, the free_objcg -> free_shrinker_info() unwind path tears down the already published pn->shrinker_info arrays without shrinker_mutex. The expand_one_shrinker_info() can race with that teardown in the same way, leading to use-after-free or double-free of the old shrinker_info. Fix this by serializing shrinker_info teardown with shrinker_mutex, and by keeping alloc_shrinker_info() error cleanup inside the locked section.

2026-07-18mm/shrinker: do not hold RCU lock in shrinker_debugfs_count_show()Shakeel Butt1-4/+0
commit b902890c62d200b3509cb5e09cf1e0a66553c128 upstream. Reading the debugfs "count" file of a memcg-aware shrinker can sleep inside an RCU read-side critical section: BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/cgroup/rstat.c:421 RCU nest depth: 1, expected: 0 css_rstat_flush mem_cgroup_flush_stats zswap_shrinker_count shrinker_debugfs_count_show shrinker_debugfs_count_show() invokes the ->count_objects() callback under rcu_read_lock(). The zswap callback flushes memcg stats via css_rstat_flush(), which may sleep, so it must not run under RCU. The RCU lock is not needed here. mem_cgroup_iter() takes RCU internally and returns a memcg holding a css reference (dropped on the next iteration or by mem_cgroup_iter_break()), so the memcg stays alive without it. The shrinker is kept alive by the open debugfs file: shrinker_free() removes the debugfs entries via debugfs_remove_recursive(), which waits for in-flight readers to drain, before call_rcu(..., shrinker_free_rcu_cb). The sibling "scan" handler already invokes the sleeping ->scan_objects() callback with no RCU section. Drop the rcu_read_lock()/rcu_read_unlock().

2026-07-18mm/damon/ops-common: handle extreme intervals in damon_hot_score()SeongJae Park1-0/+1
commit 35d4a3cf70a855b50e53189ac2f8463e20a02046 upstream. Fix three issues in damon_hot_score() that comes from wrong handling of extreme (zero or too high) monitoring intervals user setup. When the user sets sampling interval zero, damon_max_nr_accesses(), which is called from damon_hot_score(), causes a divide-by-zero. Needless to say, it is a problem. When the user sets the aggregation interval zero, the function returns zero. It is wrong, since the real maximum nr_acceses in the setup should be one. Worse yet, it can cause another divide-by-zero from its caller, damon_hot_score(), since it uses damon_max_nr_accesses() return value as a denominator. When the user sets the aggregation interval very high, damon_hot_score() could return a value out of [0, DAMOS_MAX_SCORE] range. Since the return value is used as an index to the regions_score_histogram array, which is DAMOS_MAX_SCORE+1 size, it causes out of bounds array access. The issues can be relatively easily reproduced like below. The sysfs write permission is required, though. # ./damo start --damos_action lru_prio --damos_quota_space 100M \ --damos_quota_interval 1s # cd /sys/kernel/mm/damon/admin/kdamonds/0 # echo 0 > contexts/0/monitoring_attrs/intervals/sample_us # echo 0 > contexts/0/monitoring_attrs/intervals/aggr_us # echo commit > state # dmesg [...] [ 131.329762] Oops: divide error: 0000 [#1] SMP NOPTI [...] [ 131.336089] RIP: 0010:damon_hot_score+0x27/0xd0 [...] Fix the divide-by-zero intervals problems by explicitly handling the zero intervals in damon_max_nr_accesses().

2026-07-18mm/khugepaged: write all dirty file folios when collapsingPedro Falcato1-14/+25
[There is no upstream commit, as this code was removed by upstream commit 044925f9b565 ("mm: fs: remove filemap_nr_thps*() functions and their users")] As-is, khugepaged and writable-file opening exclude each other. A file cannot be open writeable and have THPs (because the filesystem is not aware of them). khugepaged will never collapse file pages for files that are opened writeable. On an open(O_RDWR/O_WRONLY), the page cache for that particular file is dropped. This is fine because nothing could've been dirtied. However, there is an edge-case: collapse_file() might not be able to coexist with concurrent writers, but it can coexist with dirty folios (from previous writers). Therefore, the following can happen: open(file, O_RDWR) write(file) close(file) madvise(file_mapping, MADV_COLLAPSE, some non-dirty range) open(file, O_RDWR) nr_thps > 0 truncate_inode_pages() /* THPs are cleared out, but so are the dirty folios */ When this edge-case happens, there is data loss, as the dirty folios are fully discarded. Fix it by fully writing back the page cache (and waiting) when collapsing file THPs. Doing so provides the guarantee that no dirty folio will be observed while there are active THPs. To fully ensure this is safe, the invalidate_lock needs to be held while doing the writeout, so that do_dentry_open()'s page cache truncation excludes this write-and-wait. As a side effect, move the nr_thps counter bumping outside the i_pages lock. This is correct since the counter itself is an atomic_t and the producer <-> consumer correctness is provided by a full memory barrier: smp_mb() in collapse_file()/memory barrier implied by full ordering in get_write_access() -> atomic_inc_unless_negative().

The !IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_SWAP) guard ran before the non-swap-entry early return, so mincore_pte_range() can spuriously WARN and report these pages nonresident on !CONFIG_SWAP kernels.

2026-06-04mm/list_lru: drain before clearing xarray entry on reparentShakeel Butt1-9/+12
memcg_reparent_list_lrus() clears the dying memcg's xarray entry with xas_store(&xas, NULL) before reparenting its per-node lists into the parent. This opens a window where a concurrent list_lru_del() arriving for the dying memcg sees xa_load() == NULL, walks to the parent in lock_list_lru_of_memcg(), takes the parent's per-node lock, and calls list_del_init() on an item still physically linked on the dying memcg's list. If another in-flight thread holds the dying memcg's per-node lock at the same moment (another list_lru_del, or a list_lru_walk_one running an isolate callback), both threads modify ->next/->prev pointers on the same physical list under different locks. Adjacent items can corrupt each other's links. Fix it by reversing the order: reparent each per-node list and mark the child's list lru dead and then clear the xarray entry. Any concurrent list_lru op that finds the still-set xarray entry either takes the dying memcg's per-node lock (synchronizing with the drain) or sees LONG_MIN and walks to the parent, where the items now live.

2026-06-04mm/huge_memory: use correct flags for device private PMD entryLorenzo Stoakes1-12/+33
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(): VM_WARN_ON_FOLIO(folio_test_large(folio) && folio_entire_mapcount(folio) > 1 && PageAnonExclusive(cur_page), folio) 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 device private THP test infrastructure") which first exposes this bug as it was the commit that permitted test_hmm to generate the test. However commit 65edfda6f3f2 ("mm/rmap: extend rmap and migration support device-private entries") is the commit that actually enabled this behaviour.

DAMON_LRU_SORT allocates the damon_ctx object for its kdamond in its init function. damon_lru_sort_enabled_store() wrongly assumes the allocation will always succeed once tried. If the damon_ctx allocation was failed, therefore, code execution reaches to damon_commit_ctx() while 'ctx' is NULL. As a result, it dereferences the NULL 'ctx' pointer. Avoid the NULL dereference by returning -ENOMEM if 'ctx' is NULL.

Patch series "mm/damon/{reclaim,lru_sort}: handle ctx allocation failures". DAMON_RECLAIM and DAMON_LRU_SORT could dereference NULL pointers if their damon_ctx object allocations fail. The bugs are expected to happen infrequently because the allocations are arguably too small to fail on common setups. But theoretically they are possible and the consequences are bad. Fix those. The issues were discovered [1] by Sashiko. This patch (of 2): DAMON_RECLAIM allocates the damon_ctx object for its kdamond in its init function. damon_reclaim_enabled_store() wrongly assumes the allocation will always succeed once tried.

2026-06-04mm/cma_sysfs: skip inactive CMA areas in sysfsKaitao Cheng1-2/+6
cma_activate_area() can fail after a CMA area has already been added to cma_areas[]. In that case the area is left in the global array, but it does not reach the point where CMA_ACTIVATED is set. cma_sysfs_init() currently walks all cma_area_count entries and creates sysfs files for every area, including ones that failed activation. These areas are not usable CMA areas and should not be exposed to userspace as valid CMA regions. If such an inactive area is exposed, userspace sees a CMA directory whose read-only accounting files report zeros. total_pages and available_pages report zero because the failed activation path clears cma->count and cma->available_count, while the allocation and release counters also stay at zero because the area cannot service CMA allocations. This makes the failed area look like a valid but empty CMA region and can mislead tests, monitoring, and diagnostics. Skip CMA areas that did not reach CMA_ACTIVATED when creating the sysfs objects. Since inactive entries can now be skipped, make the error unwind tolerate entries that never had cma_kobj initialized.

2026-06-01userfaultfd: verify VMA state across UFFDIO_COPY retryMike Rapoport (Microsoft)1-12/+73
Patch series "userfaultfd: verify VMA state across UFFDIO_COPY retry", v2. ... and two more small fixes. This patch (of 3): mfill_copy_folio_retry() drops the VMA lock for copy_from_user() and reacquires it afterwards. The destination VMA can be replaced during that window. The existing check compares vma_uffd_ops() before and after the retry, but if a shmem VMA with MAP_SHARED is replaced with a shmem VMA with MAP_PRIVATE (or vice versa) the replacement goes undetected. The change from MAP_PRIVATE to MAP_SHARED will treat the folio allocated with shmem_alloc_folio() as anonymous and this will cause BUG() when mfill_atomic_install_pte() will try to folio_add_new_anon_rmap(). The change from MAP_SHARED to MAP_PRIVATE allows injection of folios into the page cache of the original VMA. There is no need to change for hugetlb because it never uses mfill_copy_folio_retry(). Introduce helpers for more comprehensive comparison of VMA state: - mfill_retry_state_save() to save the relevant VMA state into a struct mfill_retry_state (original uffd_ops, relevant VMA flags, vm_file and pgoff) before dropping the lock - mfill_retry_state_changed() to compare the saved state with the state of the VMA acquired after retaking the locks - mfill_retry_state_put() to release vm_file pinning. Use DEFINE_FREE() cleanup to wrap mfill_retry_state_put() to avoid complicating error handling paths in mfill_copy_folio_retry().
