Subject: kho: warn and exit when unpreserved page wasn't preserved
Date: Mon, 3 Nov 2025 19:02:32 +0100
Calling __kho_unpreserve() on a pair of (pfn, end_pfn) that wasn't
preserved is a bug. Currently, if that is done, the physxa or bits can be
NULL. This results in a soft lockup since a NULL physxa or bits results
in redoing the loop without ever making any progress.
Return when physxa or bits are not found, but WARN first to loudly
indicate invalid behaviour.

Subject: mm/secretmem: fix use-after-free race in fault handler
Date: Fri, 31 Oct 2025 20:09:55 +0800
When a page fault occurs in a secret memory file created with
`memfd_secret(2)`, the kernel will allocate a new folio for it, mark the
underlying page as not-present in the direct map, and add it to the file
mapping.
If two tasks cause a fault in the same page concurrently, both could end
up allocating a folio and removing the page from the direct map, but only
one would succeed in adding the folio to the file mapping. The task that
failed undoes the effects of its attempt by (a) freeing the folio again
and (b) putting the page back into the direct map. However, by doing
these two operations in this order, the page becomes available to the
allocator again before it is placed back in the direct mapping.
If another task attempts to allocate the page between (a) and (b), and the
kernel tries to access it via the direct map, it would result in a
supervisor not-present page fault.
Fix the ordering to restore the direct map before the folio is freed.

Subject: nilfs2: avoid having an active sc_timer before freeing sci
Date: Thu, 30 Oct 2025 07:51:52 +0900
Because kthread_stop did not stop sc_task properly and returned -EINTR,
the sc_timer was not properly closed, ultimately causing the problem [1]
reported by syzbot when freeing sci due to the sc_timer not being closed.
Because the thread sc_task main function nilfs_segctor_thread() returns 0
when it succeeds, when the return value of kthread_stop() is not 0 in
nilfs_segctor_destroy(), we believe that it has not properly closed
sc_timer.
We use timer_shutdown_sync() to sync wait for sc_timer to shutdown, and
set the value of sc_task to NULL under the protection of lock
sc_state_lock, so as to avoid the issue caused by sc_timer not being
properly shutdowned.

Subject: scripts/decode_stacktrace.sh: fix build ID and PC source parsing
Date: Thu, 30 Oct 2025 01:03:33 +0000
Support for parsing PC source info in stacktraces (e.g. '(P)') was added
in commit 2bff77c665ed ("scripts/decode_stacktrace.sh: fix decoding of
lines with an additional info"). However, this logic was placed after the
build ID processing. This incorrect order fails to parse lines containing
both elements, e.g.:
drm_gem_mmap_obj+0x114/0x200 [drm 03d0564e0529947d67bb2008c3548be77279fd27] (P)
This patch fixes the problem by extracting the PC source info first and
then processing the module build ID. With this change, the line above is
now properly parsed as such:
drm_gem_mmap_obj (./include/linux/mmap_lock.h:212 ./include/linux/mm.h:811 drivers/gpu/drm/drm_gem.c:1177) drm (P)
While here, also add a brief explanation the build ID section.

Subject: mm/damon/sysfs: change next_update_jiffies to a global variable
Date: Thu, 30 Oct 2025 10:07:46 +0800
In DAMON's damon_sysfs_repeat_call_fn(), time_before() is used to compare
the current jiffies with next_update_jiffies to determine whether to
update the sysfs files at this moment.
On 32-bit systems, the kernel initializes jiffies to "-5 minutes" to make
jiffies wrap bugs appear earlier. However, this causes time_before() in
damon_sysfs_repeat_call_fn() to unexpectedly return true during the first
5 minutes after boot on 32-bit systems (see [1] for more explanation,
which fixes another jiffies-related issue before). As a result, DAMON
does not update sysfs files during that period.
There is also an issue unrelated to the system's word size[2]: if the
user stops DAMON just after next_update_jiffies is updated and restarts
it after 'refresh_ms' or a longer delay, next_update_jiffies will retain
an older value, causing time_before() to return false and the update to
happen earlier than expected.
Fix these issues by making next_update_jiffies a global variable and
initializing it each time DAMON is started.

Subject: mm/damon/stat: change last_refresh_jiffies to a global variable
Date: Thu, 30 Oct 2025 10:07:45 +0800
Patch series "mm/damon: fixes for the jiffies-related issues", v2.
On 32-bit systems, the kernel initializes jiffies to "-5 minutes" to make
jiffies wrap bugs appear earlier. However, this may cause the
time_before() series of functions to return unexpected values, resulting
in DAMON not functioning as intended. Meanwhile, similar issues exist in
some specific user operation scenarios.
This patchset addresses these issues. The first patch is about the
DAMON_STAT module, and the second patch is about the core layer's sysfs.
This patch (of 2):
In DAMON_STAT's damon_stat_damon_call_fn(), time_before_eq() is used to
avoid unnecessarily frequent stat update.
On 32-bit systems, the kernel initializes jiffies to "-5 minutes" to make
jiffies wrap bugs appear earlier. However, this causes time_before_eq()
in DAMON_STAT to unexpectedly return true during the first 5 minutes after
boot on 32-bit systems (see [1] for more explanation, which fixes another
jiffies-related issue before). As a result, DAMON_STAT does not update
any monitoring results during that period, which becomes more confusing
when DAMON_STAT_ENABLED_DEFAULT is enabled.
There is also an issue unrelated to the system's word size[2]: if the user
stops DAMON_STAT just after last_refresh_jiffies is updated and restarts
it after 5 seconds or a longer delay, last_refresh_jiffies will retain an
older value, causing time_before_eq() to return false and the update to
happen earlier than expected.
Fix these issues by making last_refresh_jiffies a global variable and
initializing it each time DAMON_STAT is started.

Currently mremap folio pte batch ignores the writable bit during figuring
out a set of similar ptes mapping the same folio. Suppose that the first
pte of the batch is writable while the others are not - set_ptes will end
up setting the writable bit on the other ptes, which is a violation of
mremap semantics. Therefore, use FPB_RESPECT_WRITE to check the writable
bit while determining the pte batch.
