Merge tag 'mm-stable-2026-06-18-09-26' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm
Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- "selftests/mm: clean up build output and verbosity" (Li Wang)
Remove some noise from the MM selftests build
- "mm: Free contiguous order-0 pages efficiently" (Ryan Roberts)
Speed up the freeing of a batch of 0-order pages by first scanning
them for coalescing opportunities. This is applicable to vfree() and
to the releasing of frozen pages
- "mm/damon: introduce DAMOS failed region quota charge ratio"
(SeongJae Park)
Address a DAMOS usability issue: The DAMOS quota often exhausts
prematurely because it charges for all memory attempted, causing slow
and inconsistent performance when actions fail on unreclaimable
memory.
To fix this, a new feature lets users set a smaller, flexible quota
charge ratio (via a numerator and denominator) for failed regions.
Since failed actions cause less overhead, reducing their quota cost
ensures more predictable and efficient DAMOS processing
- "selftests/cgroup: improve zswap tests robustness and support large
page sizes" (Li Wang)
Fix various spurious failures and improves the overall robustness of
the cgroup zswap selftests

Usama Anjum)
Simplify and speed up kasan by removing its ineffective tagging of
stacks and page tables
- "mm/damon/reclaim,lru_sort: monitor all system rams by default"
(SeongJae Park)
Simplify deployment on diverse hardware like NUMA systems by updating

replacing the overly restrictive behavior that only targeted the
single largest memory block to save on negligible overhead
- "mm/damon/sysfs: document filters/ directory as deprecated" (SeongJae
Park)
Update some DAMON docs
- "mm: use spinlock guards for zone lock" (Dmitry Ilvokhin)

significant reduction of redundant synchronous mmap readahead I/O,
drastically cutting down execution time and gigabytes read for sparse
random or strided memory access workloads

Butt)
Resolve a 68% performance regression caused by NUMA-node cache
thrashing around struct obj_stock_pcp by shrinking its existing
fields and expanding it into a multi-slot array that caches up to
five obj_cgroup pointers per CPU, allowing per-node variants of the

Merge tag 'net-next-7.2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next
Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
"Core & protocols:
- Work on removing rtnl_lock protection throughout the stack
continues. In this chapter:
- don't use rtnl_lock for IPv6 multicast routing configuration
- don't take rtnl_lock in ethtool for modern drivers
- prepare Qdisc dump callbacks for rtnl_lock removal
- Support dumping just ifindex + name of all interfaces, under RCU.
It's a common operation for Netlink CLI tools (when translating
names to ifindexes) and previously required full rtnl_lock.
- Support dumping qdiscs and page pools for a specific netdev. Even
tho user space wants a dump of all netdevs, most of the time, the
OOO programming model results in repeating the dump for each
netdev. Which, in absence of a cache, leads to a O(n^2) behavior.
- Flush nexthops once on multi-nexthop removal (e.g. when device goes
down), another O(n^2) -> O(n) improvement.
- Rehash locally generated traffic to a different nexthop on
retransmit timeout.
- Honor oif when choosing nexthop for locally generated IPv6 traffic.
- Convert TCP Auth Option to crypto library, and drop non-RFC algos.
- Increase subflow limits in MPTCP to 64 and endpoint limit to 256.
- Support MPTCP signaling of IPv6 address + port (ADD_ADDR). We need
to selectively skip reporting of the standard TCP Timestamp option,
because they won't fit into the header space together (12 + 30 >
40).
- Support using bridge neighbor suppression, Duplicate Address
Detection, Gratuitous ARP and unsolicited NA forwarding - in EVPN
deployments, e.g. VXLAN fabrics (IPv4 and IPv6).
- Improve link state reporting for upper netdevs (e.g. macvlan) over
tunnel devices (again, mostly for EVPN deployments).
- Support binding GENEVE tunnels to a local address.
- Speed up UDP tunnel destruction (remove one synchronize_rcu()).
- Support exponential field encoding in multicast (IGMPv3 and MLDv2).
- Support attaching PSP crypto offload to containers (veth, netkit).
- Add a new IPSec Netlink message XFRM_MSG_MIGRATE_STATE that allows
migrating individual IPsec SAs independently of their policies.
The existing XFRM_MSG_MIGRATE is tightly coupled to policy+SA
migration, lacks SPI for unique SA identification, and cannot
express reqid changes or migrate Transport mode selectors.
The new interface identifies the SA via SPI and mark, supports
reqid changes, address family changes, encap removal, and uses an
atomic create+install flow under x->lock to prevent SN/IV reuse
during AEAD SA migration.
- Implement GRO/GSO support for PPPoE.
- Convert sockopt callbacks in a number of protocols to iov_iter.
Cross-tree stuff:
- Remove support for Crypto TFM cloning (unblocked after the TCP Auth
Option rework). This feature regressed performance for all crypto
API users, since it changed crypto transformation objects into
reference-counted objects.
- Add FCrypt-PCBC implementation to rxrpc and remove it from the
global crypto API as obsolete and insecure.
Wireless:
- Major rework of station bandwidth handling, fixing issues with
lower capability than AP.
- Cleanups for EMLSR spec issues (drafts differed).
- More Neighbor Awareness Networking (Wi-Fi Aware) work (multicast,
schedule improvements, multi-station etc.)
- Some Ultra High Reliability (UHR) / IEEE 802.11bn (D1.4) work
(e.g. non-primary channel access, UHR DBE support).
- Fine Timing Measurement ranging (i.e. distance measurement) APIs.
Netfilter:
- Use per-rule hash initval in nf_conncount. This avoids unnecessary
lock contention with short keys (e.g. conntrack zones) in different
namespaces.
- Various safety improvements, both in packet parsing and object
lifetimes. Notably add refcounts to conntrack timeout policy.
Deletions:
- Remove TLS + sockmap integration. TLS wants to pin user pages to
avoid a copy, and sockmap wants to write to the input stream. More
work on this integration is clearly needed, and we can't find any
users (original author admitted that they never deployed it).
- Remove support for TLS offload with TCP Offload Engine (the far
more common opportunistic offload is retained). The locking looks
unfixable (driver sleeps under TCP spin locks) and people from the
vendor that added this are AWOL.
- Remove more ATM code, trying to leave behind only what PPPoATM
needs, AAL5 and br2684 with permanent circuits.
- Remove AppleTalk. Let it join hamradio in our out of tree protocol
graveyard, I mean, repository.
- Disable 32-bit x_tables compatibility (32bit binaries on 64bit
kernel) interface in user namespaces. To be deleted completely,
soon.
- Remove 5/10 MHz support from cfg80211/mac80211.
Drivers:
- Software:
- Support DEVMEM/DMABUF Tx over NETMEM_TX_NO_DMA devices (netkit)
- bonding: add knob to strictly follow 802.3ad for link state
- New drivers:
- Alibaba Elastic Ethernet Adaptor (cloud vNIC).
- NXP NETC switch within i.MX94.
- DPLL:
- Add operational state to pins (implement in zl3073x).
- Add generic DPLL type, for daisy-chaining DPLLs (implement in ice).
- Ethernet high-speed NICs:
- Huawei (hinic3):
- enhance tc flow offload support with queue selection,
tunnels
- nVidia/Mellanox:
- avoid over-copying payload to the skb's linear part (up to
60% win for LRO on slow CPUs like ARM64 V2)
- expose more per-queue stats over the standard API
- support additional, unprivileged PFs in the DPU
configuration
- support Socket Direct (multi-PF) with switchdev offloads
- add a pool / frag allocator for DMA mapped buffers for
control objects, save memory on systems with 64kB page size
- take advantage of the ability to dynamically change RSS
table size, even when table is configured by the user
- increase the max RSS table size for even traffic
distribution

- Marvell/Aquantia:
- AQC113 PTP support

appletalk: move the protocol out of tree
AppleTalk has been removed in MacOS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard), in 2009, according to Wikipedia. We recently got a burst of AI generated fixes to this protocol which nobody is reviewing. Let AppleTalk follow AX.25 and hamradio out of the Linux tree. We we will maintain the code at: github.com/linux-netdev/mod-orphan for anyone interested in playing with it. Retain the uAPI for now. No strong reason, simply because I suspect keeping it will be less controversial.

docs: mm: clarify that user_reserve_kbytes has no effect when overcommit_memory is set to 0 or 1
Looking at __vm_enough_memory() in mm/util.c, user_reserve_kbytes has no effect when overcommit_memory is set to 0 or 1. The documentation for overcommit_memory already references user_reserve_kbytes when the flag is set to 2. Let's go ahead and add a clarification to user_reserve_kbytes in vm.rst that it has no effect when overcommit_memory is set to 0 or 1.

- "ocfs2/dlm: fix two bugs in dlm_match_regions()" (Junrui Luo)
- "cleanup the RAID5 XOR library" (Christoph Hellwig)
A quite far-reaching cleanup to this code. I can't do better than to
quote Christoph:
"The XOR library used for the RAID5 parity is a bit of a mess right
now. The main file sits in crypto/ despite not being cryptography
and not using the crypto API, with the generic implementations
sitting in include/asm-generic and the arch implementations
sitting in an asm/ header in theory. The latter doesn't work for
many cases, so architectures often build the code directly into
the core kernel, or create another module for the architecture
code.
Change this to a single module in lib/ that also contains the
architecture optimizations, similar to the library work Eric
Biggers has done for the CRC and crypto libraries later. After
that it changes to better calling conventions that allow for
smarter architecture implementations (although none is contained
here yet), and uses static_call to avoid indirection function call
overhead"

hung_task: enable runtime reset of hung_task_detect_count
Currently, the hung_task_detect_count sysctl provides a cumulative count
of hung tasks since boot. In long-running, high-availability
environments, this counter may lose its utility if it cannot be reset once
an incident has been resolved. Furthermore, the previous implementation
relied upon implicit ordering, which could not strictly guarantee that
diagnostic metadata published by one CPU was visible to the panic logic on
another.
This patch introduces the capability to reset the detection count by
writing "0" to the hung_task_detect_count sysctl. The proc_handler logic
has been updated to validate this input and atomically reset the counter.
The synchronisation of sysctl_hung_task_detect_count relies upon a
transactional model to ensure the integrity of the detection counter
against concurrent resets from userspace. The application of
atomic_long_read_acquire() and atomic_long_cmpxchg_release() is correct
and provides the following guarantees:
1. Prevention of Load-Store Reordering via Acquire Semantics By
utilising atomic_long_read_acquire() to snapshot the counter
before initiating the task traversal, we establish a strict
memory barrier. This prevents the compiler or hardware from
reordering the initial load to a point later in the scan. Without
this "acquire" barrier, a delayed load could potentially read a
"0" value resulting from a userspace reset that occurred
mid-scan. This would lead to the subsequent cmpxchg succeeding
erroneously, thereby overwriting the user's reset with stale
increment data.
2. Atomicity of the "Commit" Phase via Release Semantics The
atomic_long_cmpxchg_release() serves as the transaction's commit
point. The "release" barrier ensures that all diagnostic
recordings and task-state observations made during the scan are
globally visible before the counter is incremented.
3. Race Condition Resolution This pairing effectively detects any
"out-of-band" reset of the counter. If
sysctl_hung_task_detect_count is modified via the procfs
interface during the scan, the final cmpxchg will detect the
discrepancy between the current value and the "acquire" snapshot.
Consequently, the update will fail, ensuring that a reset command
from the administrator is prioritised over a scan that may have
been invalidated by that very reset.

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.

- Add Huawei hinic3 PF etherner driver.
- Add DWMAC glue driver for Motorcomm YT6801 PCIe ethernet

Merge tag 'docs-7.0' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/docs/linux
Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
"A slightly calmer cycle for docs this time around, though there is
still a fair amount going on, including:
- Some signs of life on the long-moribund Japanese translation
- Documentation on policies around the use of generative tools for
patch submissions, and a separate document intended for consumption
by generative tools
- The completion of the move of the documentation tools to
tools/docs. For now we're leaving a /scripts/kernel-doc symlink
behind to avoid breaking scripts
- Ongoing build-system work includes the incorporation of
documentation in Python code, better support for documenting
variables, and lots of improvements and fixes
- Automatic linking of man-page references -- cat(1), for example --
to the online pages in the HTML build
...and the usual array of typo fixes and such"

Merge tag 'vfs-7.0-rc1.initrd' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull vfs initrd removal from Christian Brauner: "Remove the deprecated linuxrc-based initrd code path and related dead code. The linuxrc initrd path was deprecated in 2020 and this series completes its removal. If we see real-life regressions we'll revert. The core change removes handle_initrd() and init_linuxrc() — the entire flow that ran /linuxrc from an initrd, pivoted roots, and handed off to the real root filesystem. With that gone, initrd_load() becomes void (no longer short-circuits prepare_namespace()), rd_load_image() is simplified to always load /initrd.image instead of taking a path, and rd_load_disk() is deleted. The /proc/sys/kernel/real-root-dev sysctl and its backing variable are removed since they only existed for linuxrc to communicate the real root device back to the kernel. The no-op load_ramdisk= and prompt_ramdisk= parameters are dropped, and noinitrd and ramdisk_start= gain deprecation warnings. Initramfs is entirely unaffected. The non-linuxrc initrd path (root=/dev/ram0) is preserved but now carries a deprecation warning targeting January 2027 removal" * tag 'vfs-7.0-rc1.initrd' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs: init: remove /proc/sys/kernel/real-root-dev initrd: remove deprecated code path (linuxrc) init: remove deprecated "load_ramdisk" and "prompt_ramdisk" command line parameters |

net: expand NETDEV_RSS_KEY_LEN to 256 bytes
NETDEV_RSS_KEY_LEN has been set to 52 bytes in 2014, until now.
Jakub suggested we bump the size to 128 bytes or more.
Some drivers (like idpf) were already working around the core limit.
Since this change might cause some issues in admin scripts,
bump it directly to 256 in one go.

mm/block/fs: remove laptop_mode
Laptop mode was introduced to save battery, by delaying and consolidating writes and thereby maximize the time rotating hard drives wouldn't have to spin. Luckily, rotating hard drives, with their high spin-up times and power draw, are a thing of the past for battery-powered devices. Reclaim has also since changed to not write single filesystem pages anymore, and regular filesystem writeback is lumpy by design. The juice doesn't appear worth the squeeze anymore. The footprint of the feature is small, but nevertheless it's a complicating factor in mm, block, filesystems. Developers don't think about it, and it likely hasn't been tested with new reclaim and writeback changes in years. Let's sunset it. Keep the sysctl with a deprecation warning around for a few more cycles, but remove all functionality behind it.

Docs/mm/allocation-profiling: describe sysctrl limitations in debug mode
When CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_DEBUG=y, /proc/sys/vm/mem_profiling is
read-only to avoid debug warnings in a scenario when an allocation is
made while profiling is disabled (allocation does not get an allocation
tag), then profiling gets enabled and allocation gets freed (warning due
to the allocation missing allocation tag).
