[PATCH] net: nfc: nci: Fix parameter validation for packet data

by Michael Thalmeier

Since commit 8fcc7315a10a ("net: nfc: nci: Add parameter validation for packet data") communication with nci nfc chips is not working any more. The mentioned commit tries to fix access of uninitialized data, but failed to understand that in some cases the data packet is of variable length and can therefore not be compared to the maximum packet length given by the sizeof(struct). For these cases it is only possible to check for minimum packet length.

[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.18-5.10] serial: sprd: Return -EPROBE_DEFER when uart clock is not ready

by Sasha Levin

From: Wenhua Lin <Wenhua.Lin(a)unisoc.com> [ Upstream commit 29e8a0c587e328ed458380a45d6028adf64d7487 ] In sprd_clk_init(), when devm_clk_get() returns -EPROBE_DEFER for either uart or source clock, we should propagate the error instead of just warning and continuing with NULL clocks. Currently the driver only emits a warning when clock acquisition fails and proceeds with NULL clock pointers. This can lead to issues later when the clocks are actually needed. More importantly, when the clock provider is not ready yet and returns -EPROBE_DEFER, we should return this error to allow deferred probing. This change adds explicit checks for -EPROBE_DEFER after both: 1. devm_clk_get(uport->dev, uart) 2. devm_clk_get(uport->dev, source) When -EPROBE_DEFER is encountered, the function now returns -EPROBE_DEFER to let the driver framework retry probing later when the clock dependencies are resolved. Signed-off-by: Wenhua Lin <Wenhua.Lin(a)unisoc.com> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20251022030840.956589-1-Wenhua.Lin@unisoc.com Reviewed-by: Cixi Geng <cixi.geng(a)linux.dev> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh(a)linuxfoundation.org> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal(a)kernel.org> --- LLM Generated explanations, may be completely bogus: ## Commit Analysis: serial: sprd: Return -EPROBE_DEFER when uart clock is not ready ### 1. COMMIT MESSAGE ANALYSIS **Subject**: Fixes incorrect handling of `-EPROBE_DEFER` error from `devm_clk_get()` **Key observations**: - No `Cc: stable(a)vger.kernel.org` tag present - No `Fixes:` tag pointing to when the bug was introduced - Has `Reviewed-by:` from Cixi Geng - Accepted by Greg Kroah-Hartman (serial subsystem maintainer) ### 2. CODE CHANGE ANALYSIS The change adds two checks in `sprd_clk_init()`: ```c clk_uart = devm_clk_get(uport->dev, "uart"); if (IS_ERR(clk_uart)) { + if (PTR_ERR(clk_uart) == -EPROBE_DEFER) + return -EPROBE_DEFER; dev_warn(...); clk_uart = NULL; } clk_parent = devm_clk_get(uport->dev, "source"); if (IS_ERR(clk_parent)) { + if (PTR_ERR(clk_parent) == -EPROBE_DEFER) + return -EPROBE_DEFER; dev_warn(...); clk_parent = NULL; } ``` **Technical bug mechanism**: When clock providers aren't ready yet, `devm_clk_get()` returns `-EPROBE_DEFER`. The existing code ignores this error, sets the clock pointer to NULL, and continues. This bypasses the kernel's deferred probing mechanism which exists precisely to handle this dependency ordering scenario. **Existing pattern**: The function already has identical handling for the "enable" clock (visible in the context lines). This fix makes the handling consistent for all three clocks. ### 3. CLASSIFICATION **Type**: Bug fix (not a feature addition) This fixes incorrect error handling. The `-EPROBE_DEFER` mechanism is a fundamental kernel feature for handling driver load order dependencies. Not propagating this error is a bug. ### 4. SCOPE AND RISK ASSESSMENT - **Lines changed**: 6 lines added (two 3-line checks) - **Files touched**: 1 file (`drivers/tty/serial/sprd_serial.c`) - **Complexity**: Very low - follows identical pattern already in the same function - **Subsystem**: Hardware-specific serial driver for Spreadtrum/Unisoc UARTs **Risk**: Very low - Pattern is already established and proven in the same function - Only affects error handling during probe - No changes to normal operation when clocks are available - Worst case: probe failure happens earlier/more explicitly ### 5. USER IMPACT **Affected users**: Users of Spreadtrum/Unisoc UART hardware (embedded devices, some Android phones) **Severity**: Medium-High for affected users - without this fix, the serial port may not work correctly on systems where clock providers load after the serial driver. This is common in embedded systems with device tree-based configurations. **Real bug**: This is a practical issue in probe ordering scenarios. The driver would proceed with NULL clocks instead of waiting for dependencies to be ready. ### 6. STABILITY INDICATORS - Reviewed-by tag indicates code review - Maintainer accepted the change - Simple, straightforward change following existing code patterns - No complex logic introduced ### 7. DEPENDENCY CHECK - **Dependencies**: None - self-contained fix - **Code existence in stable**: The sprd_serial driver has existed since ~2015 (commit 3e1f2029a4b40), so it's present in all active stable trees ### SUMMARY **What it fixes**: Incorrect handling of `-EPROBE_DEFER` from `devm_clk_get()` for two clocks ("uart" and "source"), causing the driver to proceed with NULL clocks instead of deferring probe when clock providers aren't ready. **Stable kernel criteria**: - ✅ Obviously correct (follows identical pattern already in function) - ✅ Fixes a real bug (broken deferred probing) - ✅ Small and contained (6 lines, 1 file) - ✅ No new features - ✅ Low risk of regression **Concerns**: - No explicit `Cc: stable` tag (author/maintainer didn't flag for stable) - Relatively niche driver (Spreadtrum hardware) **Risk vs Benefit**: The fix is minimal risk (identical pattern to existing code) and addresses a real bug that could leave serial hardware non-functional on embedded systems. The benefit outweighs the minimal risk. The lack of `Cc: stable` tag is notable but not determinative - this is a straightforward bug fix that meets all stable criteria. The fix is small, obviously correct, and addresses a real probe ordering issue that embedded system users could encounter. **YES** drivers/tty/serial/sprd_serial.c | 6 ++++++ 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+) diff --git a/drivers/tty/serial/sprd_serial.c b/drivers/tty/serial/sprd_serial.c index 8c9366321f8e7..092755f356836 100644 --- a/drivers/tty/serial/sprd_serial.c +++ b/drivers/tty/serial/sprd_serial.c @@ -1133,6 +1133,9 @@ static int sprd_clk_init(struct uart_port *uport) clk_uart = devm_clk_get(uport->dev, "uart"); if (IS_ERR(clk_uart)) { + if (PTR_ERR(clk_uart) == -EPROBE_DEFER) + return -EPROBE_DEFER; + dev_warn(uport->dev, "uart%d can't get uart clock\n", uport->line); clk_uart = NULL; @@ -1140,6 +1143,9 @@ static int sprd_clk_init(struct uart_port *uport) clk_parent = devm_clk_get(uport->dev, "source"); if (IS_ERR(clk_parent)) { + if (PTR_ERR(clk_parent) == -EPROBE_DEFER) + return -EPROBE_DEFER; + dev_warn(uport->dev, "uart%d can't get source clock\n", uport->line); clk_parent = NULL; -- 2.51.0

[PATCH v2] media: dw2102: validate I2C messages in su3000_i2c_transfer()

by Dharanitharan R

syzbot reports a general protection fault caused by su3000_i2c_transfer() dereferencing msg->buf without validating the message length or buffer pointer. Although i2c-dev blocks zero-length messages, malformed I²C messages can still reach the driver through the DVB USB subsystem. Add strict validation of each message to prevent NULL-pointer dereferences.

[PATCH v2] powerpc: Add reloc_offset() to font bitmap pointer used for bootx_printf()

by Finn Thain

Since Linux v6.7, booting using BootX on an Old World PowerMac produces an early crash. Stan Johnson writes, "the symptoms are that the screen goes blank and the backlight stays on, and the system freezes (Linux doesn't boot)." Further testing revealed that the failure can be avoided by disabling CONFIG_BOOTX_TEXT. Bisection revealed that the regression was caused by a change to the font bitmap pointer that's used when btext_init() begins painting characters on the display, early in the boot process. Christophe Leroy explains, "before kernel text is relocated to its final location ... data is addressed with an offset which is added to the Global Offset Table (GOT) entries at the start of bootx_init() by function reloc_got2(). But the pointers that are located inside a structure are not referenced in the GOT and are therefore not updated by reloc_got2(). It is therefore needed to apply the offset manually by using PTRRELOC() macro."

[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.18-6.17] functionfs: fix the open/removal races

by Sasha Levin

From: Al Viro <viro(a)zeniv.linux.org.uk> [ Upstream commit e5bf5ee266633cb18fff6f98f0b7d59a62819eee ] ffs_epfile_open() can race with removal, ending up with file->private_data pointing to freed object. There is a total count of opened files on functionfs (both ep0 and dynamic ones) and when it hits zero, dynamic files get removed. Unfortunately, that removal can happen while another thread is in ffs_epfile_open(), but has not incremented the count yet. In that case open will succeed, leaving us with UAF on any subsequent read() or write(). The root cause is that ffs->opened is misused; atomic_dec_and_test() vs. atomic_add_return() is not a good idea, when object remains visible all along. To untangle that * serialize openers on ffs->mutex (both for ep0 and for dynamic files) * have dynamic ones use atomic_inc_not_zero() and fail if we had zero ->opened; in that case the file we are opening is doomed. * have the inodes of dynamic files marked on removal (from the callback of simple_recursive_removal()) - clear ->i_private there. * have open of dynamic ones verify they hadn't been already removed, along with checking that state is FFS_ACTIVE. Reviewed-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh(a)linuxfoundation.org> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro(a)zeniv.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal(a)kernel.org> --- LLM Generated explanations, may be completely bogus: ## Summary ### What the Commit Fixes This commit fixes a **Use-After-Free (UAF)** vulnerability in USB gadget functionfs. The race condition occurs between `ffs_epfile_open()` and file removal: 1. Thread A is in `ffs_epfile_open()` but hasn't incremented `ffs->opened` yet 2. Thread B closes the last file handle, triggering removal (since `opened` is 0) 3. Thread A's open succeeds with `file->private_data` pointing to freed memory 4. Subsequent `read()`/`write()` operations cause UAF ### Fix Mechanism The fix implements proper synchronization: - Serializes openers using `ffs->mutex` - Uses `atomic_inc_not_zero()` to fail if counter already zero - Uses `smp_load_acquire()`/`smp_store_release()` for memory ordering - Clears `i_private` during removal via `simple_recursive_removal()` callback - Uses `file->private_data` instead of `inode->i_private` in release path ### Stable Kernel Criteria Assessment | Criterion | Assessment | |-----------|------------| | Obviously correct | ✅ Uses standard kernel primitives, proper locking patterns | | Fixes real bug | ✅ UAF vulnerability, security-relevant | | Important issue | ✅ Security bug, potential for crashes/exploitation | | Small and contained | ✅ Single file, +43/-10 lines, localized changes | | No new features | ✅ Pure bug fix, no new APIs | ### Risk vs Benefit **Benefits:** - Fixes serious UAF vulnerability - USB gadget functionfs used in Android, embedded systems - Reviewed by Greg Kroah-Hartman (USB maintainer, stable maintainer) - Written by Al Viro (highly respected kernel developer) **Risks:** - Moderate complexity (changes locking behavior) - Recent commit (November 2025), limited mainline soak time - No explicit `Cc: stable(a)vger.kernel.org` tag ### Dependencies - `ffs_mutex_lock()` - exists in functionfs since early versions - `simple_recursive_removal()` with callback - available since ~5.x kernels - Standard kernel APIs (`atomic_inc_not_zero`, memory barriers) - universally available ### Concerns 1. **No Fixes: tag** - Makes it harder to determine which stable trees need this fix 2. **No Cc: stable tag** - May indicate maintainers wanted soak time, or an oversight given Greg KH reviewed it 3. **Backport effort** - May need adjustment for older stable trees depending on functionfs evolution ### Conclusion This is a legitimate UAF security fix that affects real-world users (Android, embedded USB gadgets). Despite moderate complexity, the fix: - Addresses a serious vulnerability class (UAF) - Uses correct synchronization patterns - Has been reviewed by the appropriate maintainer who also maintains stable trees - Is self-contained with no feature additions The lack of explicit stable tags appears to be an oversight given the security nature of the bug and Greg KH's review.

[PATCH v2] pmdomain: imx: Fix reference count leak in imx_gpc_probe()

of_get_child_by_name() returns a node pointer with refcount incremented, we should use the __free() attribute to manage the pgc_node reference.

[PATCH 1/2] scsi: sd: fix write_same(16/10) to enable sector size > PAGE_SIZE

by sw.prabhu6＠gmail.com

From: Swarna Prabhu <sw.prabhu6(a)gmail.com> The WRITE SAME(16) and WRITE SAME(10) scsi commands uses a page from a dedicated mempool('sd_page_pool') for its payload. This pool was initialized to allocate single pages, which was sufficient as long as the device sector size did not exceed the PAGE_SIZE. Given that block layer now supports block size upto 64K ie beyond PAGE_SIZE, adapt sd_set_special_bvec() to accommodate that. With the above fix, enable sector sizes > PAGE_SIZE in scsi sd driver.

[PATCH v2] x86/elf: Fix core dump truncation on CPUs with no extended xfeatures

by yongxin.liu＠windriver.com

From: Yongxin Liu <yongxin.liu(a)windriver.com> Zero can be a valid value of num_records. For example, on Intel Atom x6425RE, only x87 and SSE are supported (features 0, 1), and fpu_user_cfg.max_features is 3. The for_each_extended_xfeature() loop only iterates feature 2, which is not enabled, so num_records = 0. This is valid and should not cause core dump failure. The issue is that dump_xsave_layout_desc() returns 0 for both genuine errors (dump_emit() failure) and valid cases (no extended features). Use negative return values for errors and only abort on genuine failures.

[PATCH] lib/crypto: riscv: Depend on RISCV_EFFICIENT_VECTOR_UNALIGNED_ACCESS

by Eric Biggers

Replace the RISCV_ISA_V dependency of the RISC-V crypto code with RISCV_EFFICIENT_VECTOR_UNALIGNED_ACCESS, which implies RISCV_ISA_V as well as vector unaligned accesses being efficient. This is necessary because this code assumes that vector unaligned accesses are supported and are efficient. (It does so to avoid having to use lots of extra vsetvli instructions to switch the element width back and forth between 8 and either 32 or 64.) This was omitted from the code originally just because the RISC-V kernel support for detecting this feature didn't exist yet. Support has now been added, but it's fragmented into per-CPU runtime detection, a command-line parameter, and a kconfig option. The kconfig option is the only reasonable way to do it, though, so let's just rely on that.

[PATCH sched_ext/for-6.19-fixes] sched_ext: Fix bypass depth leak on scx_enable() failure

by Tejun Heo

scx_enable() calls scx_bypass(true) to initialize in bypass mode and then scx_bypass(false) on success to exit. If scx_enable() fails during task initialization - e.g. scx_cgroup_init() or scx_init_task() returns an error - it jumps to err_disable while bypass is still active. scx_disable_workfn() then calls scx_bypass(true/false) for its own bypass, leaving the bypass depth at 1 instead of 0. This causes the system to remain permanently in bypass mode after a failed scx_enable(). Failures after task initialization is complete - e.g. scx_tryset_enable_state() at the end - already call scx_bypass(false) before reaching the error path and are not affected. This only affects a subset of failure modes. Fix it by tracking whether scx_enable() called scx_bypass(true) in a bool and having scx_disable_workfn() call an extra scx_bypass(false) to clear it. This is a temporary measure as the bypass depth will be moved into the sched instance, which will make this tracking unnecessary.

[PATCH v6 0/9] Error recovery for vfio-pci devices on s390x

by Farhan Ali

Hi, This Linux kernel patch series introduces support for error recovery for passthrough PCI devices on System Z (s390x). Background ---------- For PCI devices on s390x an operating system receives platform specific error events from firmware rather than through AER.Today for passthrough/userspace devices, we don't attempt any error recovery and ignore any error events for the devices. The passthrough/userspace devices are managed by the vfio-pci driver. The driver does register error handling callbacks (error_detected), and on an error trigger an eventfd to userspace. But we need a mechanism to notify userspace (QEMU/guest/userspace drivers) about the error event. Proposal -------- We can expose this error information (currently only the PCI Error Code) via a device feature. Userspace can then obtain the error information via VFIO_DEVICE_FEATURE ioctl and take appropriate actions such as driving a device reset. This is how a typical flow for passthrough devices to a VM would work: For passthrough devices to a VM, the driver bound to the device on the host is vfio-pci. vfio-pci driver does support the error_detected() callback (vfio_pci_core_aer_err_detected()), and on an PCI error s390x recovery code on the host will call the vfio-pci error_detected() callback. The vfio-pci error_detected() callback will notify userspace/QEMU via an eventfd, and return PCI_ERS_RESULT_CAN_RECOVER. At this point the s390x error recovery on the host will skip any further action(see patch 6) and let userspace drive the error recovery. Once userspace/QEMU is notified, it then injects this error into the VM so device drivers in the VM can take recovery actions. For example for a passthrough NVMe device, the VM's OS NVMe driver will access the device. At this point the VM's NVMe driver's error_detected() will drive the recovery by returning PCI_ERS_RESULT_NEED_RESET, and the s390x error recovery in the VM's OS will try to do a reset. Resets are privileged operations and so the VM will need intervention from QEMU to perform the reset. QEMU will invoke the VFIO_DEVICE_RESET ioctl to now notify the host that the VM is requesting a reset of the device. The vfio-pci driver on the host will then perform the reset on the device to recover it.

[PATCH v2 04/13] KVM: nSVM: Fix consistency checks for NP_ENABLE

by Yosry Ahmed

KVM currenty fails a nested VMRUN and injects VMEXIT_INVALID (aka SVM_EXIT_ERR) if L1 sets NP_ENABLE and the host does not support NPTs. On first glance, it seems like the check should actually be for guest_cpu_cap_has(X86_FEATURE_NPT) instead, as it is possible for the host to support NPTs but the guest CPUID to not advertise it. However, the consistency check is not architectural to begin with. The APM does not mention VMEXIT_INVALID if NP_ENABLE is set on a processor that does not have X86_FEATURE_NPT. Hence, NP_ENABLE should be ignored if X86_FEATURE_NPT is not available for L1. Apart from the consistency check, this is currently the case because NP_ENABLE is actually copied from VMCB01 to VMCB02, not from VMCB12. On the other hand, the APM does mention two other consistency checks for NP_ENABLE, both of which are missing (paraphrased): In Volume #2, 15.25.3 (24593—Rev. 3.42—March 2024): If VMRUN is executed with hCR0.PG cleared to zero and NP_ENABLE set to 1, VMRUN terminates with #VMEXIT(VMEXIT_INVALID) In Volume #2, 15.25.4 (24593—Rev. 3.42—March 2024): When VMRUN is executed with nested paging enabled (NP_ENABLE = 1), the following conditions are considered illegal state combinations, in addition to those mentioned in “Canonicalization and Consistency Checks”: • Any MBZ bit of nCR3 is set. • Any G_PAT.PA field has an unsupported type encoding or any reserved field in G_PAT has a nonzero value. Replace the existing consistency check with consistency checks on hCR0.PG and nCR3. Only perform the consistency checks if L1 has X86_FEATURE_NPT and NP_ENABLE is set in VMCB12. The G_PAT consistency check will be addressed separately. As it is now possible for an L1 to run L2 with NP_ENABLE set but ignored, also check that L1 has X86_FEATURE_NPT in nested_npt_enabled(). Pass L1's CR0 to __nested_vmcb_check_controls(). In nested_vmcb_check_controls(), L1's CR0 is available through kvm_read_cr0(), as vcpu->arch.cr0 is not updated to L2's CR0 until later through nested_vmcb02_prepare_save() -> svm_set_cr0(). In svm_set_nested_state(), L1's CR0 is available in the captured save area, as svm_get_nested_state() captures L1's save area when running L2, and L1's CR0 is stashed in VMCB01 on nested VMRUN (in nested_svm_vmrun()).

To fix this, an if condition is introduced in ocfs2_claim_suballoc_bits(), just before calling ocfs2_find_victim_chain(), the code block in it being executed when either of the following conditions is true: 1. `cl_next_free_rec` is equal to 0, indicating that there are no free chains in the allocation chain list 2. `cl_next_free_rec` is greater than `cl_count` (the total number of chains in the allocation chain list) Either of them being true is indicative of the fact that there are no chains left for usage. This is addressed using ocfs2_error(), which prints the error log for debugging purposes, rather than panicking the kernel.

[merged mm-stable] mm-hugetlb-fix-excessive-ipi-broadcasts-when-unsharing-pmd-tables-using-mmu_gather.patch removed from -mm tree

by Andrew Morton

The quilt patch titled Subject: mm/hugetlb: fix excessive IPI broadcasts when unsharing PMD tables using mmu_gather has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-hugetlb-fix-excessive-ipi-broadcasts-when-unsharing-pmd-tables-using-mmu_gather.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-stable branch of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm ------------------------------------------------------ From: "David Hildenbrand (Red Hat)" <david(a)kernel.org> Subject: mm/hugetlb: fix excessive IPI broadcasts when unsharing PMD tables using mmu_gather Date: Fri, 5 Dec 2025 22:35:58 +0100 As reported, ever since commit 1013af4f585f ("mm/hugetlb: fix huge_pmd_unshare() vs GUP-fast race") we can end up in some situations where we perform so many IPI broadcasts when unsharing hugetlb PMD page tables that it severely regresses some workloads. In particular, when we fork()+exit(), or when we munmap() a large area backed by many shared PMD tables, we perform one IPI broadcast per unshared PMD table. There are two optimizations to be had: (1) When we process (unshare) multiple such PMD tables, such as during exit(), it is sufficient to send a single IPI broadcast (as long as we respect locking rules) instead of one per PMD table. Locking prevents that any of these PMD tables could get reuse before we drop the lock. (2) When we are not the last sharer (> 2 users including us), there is no need to send the IPI broadcast. The shared PMD tables cannot become exclusive (fully unshared) before an IPI will be broadcasted by the last sharer. Concurrent GUP-fast could walk into a PMD table just before we unshared it. It could then succeed in grabbing a page from the shared page table even after munmap() etc succeeded (and supressed an IPI). But there is not difference compared to GUP-fast just sleeping for a while after grabbing the page and re-enabling IRQs. Most importantly, GUP-fast will never walk into page tables that are no-longer shared, because the last sharer will issue an IPI broadcast. (if ever required, checking whether the PUD changed in GUP-fast after grabbing the page like we do in the PTE case could handle this) So let's rework PMD sharing TLB flushing + IPI sync to use the mmu_gather infrastructure so we can implement these optimizations and demystify the code at least a bit. Extend the mmu_gather infrastructure to be able to deal with our special hugetlb PMD table sharing implementation. We'll consolidate the handling for (full) unsharing of PMD tables in tlb_unshare_pmd_ptdesc() and tlb_flush_unshared_tables(), and track in "struct mmu_gather" whether we had (full) unsharing of PMD tables. Because locking is very special (concurrent unsharing+reuse must be prevented), we disallow deferring flushing to tlb_finish_mmu() and instead require an explicit earlier call to tlb_flush_unshared_tables(). From hugetlb code, we call huge_pmd_unshare_flush() where we make sure that the expected lock protecting us from concurrent unsharing+reuse is still held. Check with a VM_WARN_ON_ONCE() in tlb_finish_mmu() that tlb_flush_unshared_tables() was properly called earlier. Document it all properly. Notes about tlb_remove_table_sync_one() interaction with unsharing: There are two fairly tricky things: (1) tlb_remove_table_sync_one() is a NOP on architectures without CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE. Here, the assumption is that the previous TLB flush would send an IPI to all relevant CPUs. Careful: some architectures like x86 only send IPIs to all relevant CPUs when tlb->freed_tables is set. The relevant architectures should be selecting MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE, but x86 might not do that in stable kernels and it might have been problematic before this patch. Also, the arch flushing behavior (independent of IPIs) is different when tlb->freed_tables is set. Do we have to enlighten them to also take care of tlb->unshared_tables? So far we didn't care, so hopefully we are fine. Of course, we could be setting tlb->freed_tables as well, but that might then unnecessarily flush too much, because the semantics of tlb->freed_tables are a bit fuzzy. This patch changes nothing in this regard. (2) tlb_remove_table_sync_one() is not a NOP on architectures with CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE that actually don't need a sync. Take x86 as an example: in the common case (!pv, !X86_FEATURE_INVLPGB) we still issue IPIs during TLB flushes and don't actually need the second tlb_remove_table_sync_one(). This optimized can be implemented on top of this, by checking e.g., in tlb_remove_table_sync_one() whether we really need IPIs. But as described in (1), it really must honor tlb->freed_tables then to send IPIs to all relevant CPUs. Further note that the ptdesc_pmd_pts_dec() in huge_pmd_share() is not a concern, as we are holding the i_mmap_lock the whole time, preventing concurrent unsharing. That ptdesc_pmd_pts_dec() usage will be removed separately as a cleanup later. There are plenty more cleanups to be had, but they have to wait until this is fixed.

[merged mm-stable] mm-hugetlb-fix-hugetlb_pmd_shared.patch removed from -mm tree

by Andrew Morton

The quilt patch titled Subject: mm/hugetlb: fix hugetlb_pmd_shared() has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-hugetlb-fix-hugetlb_pmd_shared.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-stable branch of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm ------------------------------------------------------ From: "David Hildenbrand (Red Hat)" <david(a)kernel.org> Subject: mm/hugetlb: fix hugetlb_pmd_shared() Date: Fri, 5 Dec 2025 22:35:55 +0100 Patch series "mm/hugetlb: fixes for PMD table sharing (incl. using mmu_gather)". One functional fix, one performance regression fix, and two related comment fixes. I cleaned up my prototype I recently shared [1] for the performance fix, deferring most of the cleanups I had in the prototype to a later point. While doing that I identified the other things. The goal of this patch set is to be backported to stable trees "fairly" easily. At least patch #1 and #4. Patch #1 fixes hugetlb_pmd_shared() not detecting any sharing Patch #2 + #3 are simple comment fixes that patch #4 interacts with. Patch #4 is a fix for the reported performance regression due to excessive IPI broadcasts during fork()+exit(). The last patch is all about TLB flushes, IPIs and mmu_gather. Read: complicated I added as much comments + description that I possibly could, and I am hoping for review from Jann. There are plenty of cleanups in the future to be had + one reasonable optimization on x86. But that's all out of scope for this series. This patch (of 4): We switched from (wrongly) using the page count to an independent shared count. Now, shared page tables have a refcount of 1 (excluding speculative references) and instead use ptdesc->pt_share_count to identify sharing. We didn't convert hugetlb_pmd_shared(), so right now, we would never detect a shared PMD table as such, because sharing/unsharing no longer touches the refcount of a PMD table. Page migration, like mbind() or migrate_pages() would allow for migrating folios mapped into such shared PMD tables, even though the folios are not exclusive. In smaps we would account them as "private" although they are "shared", and we would be wrongly setting the PM_MMAP_EXCLUSIVE in the pagemap interface. Fix it by properly using ptdesc_pmd_is_shared() in hugetlb_pmd_shared().

by Andrew Morton

The quilt patch titled Subject: powerpc/pseries/cmm: adjust BALLOON_MIGRATE when migrating pages has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was powerpc-pseries-cmm-adjust-balloon_migrate-when-migrating-pages.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-stable branch of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm ------------------------------------------------------ From: David Hildenbrand <david(a)redhat.com> Subject: powerpc/pseries/cmm: adjust BALLOON_MIGRATE when migrating pages Date: Tue, 21 Oct 2025 12:06:06 +0200 Let's properly adjust BALLOON_MIGRATE like the other drivers. Note that the INFLATE/DEFLATE events are triggered from the core when enqueueing/dequeueing pages. This was found by code inspection.
