compiler: Simplify generic RELOC_HIDE()
When enabling Context Analysis (CONTEXT_ANALYSIS := y) in arch/x86/kvm code, Clang's Thread Safety Analysis failed to recognize that identical per_cpu() accesses refer to the same lock: | CC [M] arch/x86/kvm/vmx/posted_intr.o | arch/x86/kvm/vmx/posted_intr.c:186:2: error: releasing raw_spinlock '__ptr + __per_cpu_offset[vcpu->cpu]' that was not held [-Werror,-Wthread-safety-analysis] | 186 | raw_spin_unlock(&per_cpu(wakeup_vcpus_on_cpu_lock, vcpu->cpu)); | | ^ | ./include/linux/spinlock.h:276:32: note: expanded from macro 'raw_spin_unlock' | 276 | #define raw_spin_unlock(lock) _raw_spin_unlock(lock) | | ^ | arch/x86/kvm/vmx/posted_intr.c:207:1: error: raw_spinlock '__ptr + __per_cpu_offset[vcpu->cpu]' is still held at the end of function [-Werror,-Wthread-safety-analysis] | 207 | } | | ^ | arch/x86/kvm/vmx/posted_intr.c:182:2: note: raw_spinlock acquired here | 182 | raw_spin_lock_nested(&per_cpu(wakeup_vcpus_on_cpu_lock, vcpu->cpu), | | ^ | ./include/linux/spinlock.h:235:2: note: expanded from macro 'raw_spin_lock_nested' | 235 | _raw_spin_lock(((void)(subclass), (lock))) | | ^ | 2 errors generated. This occurred because the default RELOC_HIDE() implementation (used by the per-CPU macros) is a statement expression containing an intermediate 'unsigned long' variable (this version appears to predate Git history). While the analysis strips away inner casts when resolving pointer aliases, it stops when encountering intermediate non-pointer variables (this is Thread Safety Analysis specific and irrelevant for codegen). This prevents the analysis from concluding that the pointers passed to e.g. raw_spin_lock() and raw_spin_unlock() were identical when per-CPU accessors are used. Simplify RELOC_HIDE() to a single expression. This preserves the intent of obfuscating UB-introducing out-of-bounds pointer calculations from the compiler via the 'unsigned long' cast, but allows the alias analysis to successfully resolve the pointers. Using a recent Clang version, I observe that generated code remains the same for vmlinux; the intermediate variable was already being optimized away (for any respectable modern compiler, not doing so would be an optimizer bug). Note that GCC provides its own version of RELOC_HIDE(), so this change only affects Clang builds. Add a test case to lib/test_context-analysis.c to catch any regressions.

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

compiler: Use __typeof_unqual__() for __unqual_scalar_typeof()
The recent changes to get_unaligned() resulted in a new sparse warning: net/rds/ib_cm.c:96:35: sparse: sparse: incorrect type in argument 1 (different modifiers) @@ expected void * @@ got restricted __be64 const * @@ net/rds/ib_cm.c:96:35: sparse: expected void * net/rds/ib_cm.c:96:35: sparse: got restricted __be64 const * The updated get_unaligned_t() uses __unqual_scalar_typeof() to get an unqualified type. This works correctly for the compilers, but fails for sparse when the data type is __be64 (or any other __beNN variant). On sparse runs (C=[12]) __beNN types are annotated with __attribute__((bitwise)). That annotation allows sparse to detect incompatible operations on __beNN variables, but it also prevents sparse from evaluating the _Generic() in __unqual_scalar_typeof() and map __beNN to a unqualified scalar type, so it ends up with the default, i.e. the original qualified type of a 'const __beNN' pointer. That then ends up as the first pointer argument to builtin_memcpy(), which obviously causes the above sparse warnings. The sparse git tree supports typeof_unqual() now, which allows to use it instead of the _Generic() based __unqual_scalar_typeof(). With that sparse correctly evaluates the unqualified type and keeps the __beNN logic intact. The downside is that this requires a top of tree sparse build and an old sparse version will emit a metric ton of incomprehensible error messages before it dies with a segfault. Therefore implement a sanity check which validates that the checker is available and capable of handling typeof_unqual(). Emit a warning if not so the user can take informed action.

compiler: Let data_race() imply disabled context analysis
Many patterns that involve data-racy accesses often deliberately ignore normal synchronization rules to avoid taking a lock. If we have a lock-guarded variable on which we do a lock-less data-racy access, rather than having to write context_unsafe(data_race(..)), simply make the data_race(..) macro imply context-unsafety. The data_race() macro already denotes the intent that something subtly unsafe is about to happen, so it should be clear enough as-is.

is a major new feature targeted at cloud environments. Quoting the
cover letter:
This series introduces the Live Update Orchestrator, a kernel
subsystem designed to facilitate live kernel updates using a
kexec-based reboot. This capability is critical for cloud
environments, allowing hypervisors to be updated with minimal
downtime for running virtual machines. LUO achieves this by
preserving the state of selected resources, such as memory,
devices and their dependencies, across the kernel transition.
As a key feature, this series includes support for preserving
memfd file descriptors, which allows critical in-memory data, such
as guest RAM or any other large memory region, to be maintained in
RAM across the kexec reboot.
Mike Rappaport merits a mention here, for his extensive review and
testing work.

The kernel's CFI implementation uses the KCFI ABI specifically, and is not strictly tied to a particular compiler. In preparation for GCC supporting KCFI, rename CONFIG_CFI_CLANG to CONFIG_CFI (along with associated options).

compiler: remove __ADDRESSABLE_ASM{_STR,}() again
__ADDRESSABLE_ASM_STR() is where the necessary stringification happens.
As long as "sym" doesn't contain any odd characters, no quoting is
required for its use with .quad / .long. In fact the quotation gets in
the way with gas 2.25; it's only from 2.26 onwards that quoted symbols
are half-way properly supported.
However, assembly being different from C anyway, drop
__ADDRESSABLE_ASM_STR() and its helper macro altogether. A simple
.global directive will suffice to get the symbol "declared", i.e. into
the symbol table. While there also stop open-coding STATIC_CALL_TRAMP()
and STATIC_CALL_KEY().
Fixes:

build_bug.h: more user friendly error messages in BUILD_BUG_ON_ZERO()
__BUILD_BUG_ON_ZERO_MSG(), as introduced in [1], makes it possible to
do a static assertions in expressions. The direct benefit is to
provide a meaningful error message instead of the cryptic negative
bitfield size error message currently returned by BUILD_BUG_ON_ZERO():
./include/linux/build_bug.h:16:51: error: negative width in bit-field '<anonymous>'
16 | #define BUILD_BUG_ON_ZERO(e) ((int)(sizeof(struct { int:(-!!(e)); })))
| ^
Get rid of BUILD_BUG_ON_ZERO()'s bitfield size hack. Instead rely on
__BUILD_BUG_ON_ZERO_MSG() which in turn relies on C11's
_Static_assert().
Use some macro magic, similarly to static_assert(), to either use an
optional error message provided by the user or, when omitted, to
produce a default error message by stringifying the tested
expression. With this, for example:
BUILD_BUG_ON_ZERO(1 > 0)
would now throw:
./include/linux/compiler.h:197:62: error: static assertion failed: "1 > 0 is true"
197 | define __BUILD_BUG_ON_ZERO_MSG(e, msg) ((int)sizeof(struct {_Static_assert(!(e), msg);}))
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Finally, __BUILD_BUG_ON_ZERO_MSG() is already guarded by an:
#ifdef __CHECKER__
So no need any more for that guard clause for BUILD_BUG_ON_ZERO().
Remove it.

No runtime effects are anticipated. - The series "mm/madvise: remove redundant mmap_lock operations from process_madvise()" from SeongJae Park rationalizes the locking in the madvise() implementation. Performance gains of 20-25% were observed in one MADV_DONTNEED microbenchmark. - The series "Tiny cleanup and improvements about SWAP code" from Baoquan He contains a number of touchups to issues which Baoquan noticed when working on the swap code. - The series "mm: kmemleak: Usability improvements" from Catalin Marinas implements a couple of improvements to the kmemleak user-visible output. - The series "mm/damon/paddr: fix large folios access and schemes handling" from Usama Arif provides a couple of fixes for DAMON's handling of large folios. - The series "mm/damon/core: fix wrong and/or useless damos_walk() behaviors" from SeongJae Park fixes a few issues with the accuracy of kdamond's walking of DAMON regions. - The series "expose mapping wrprotect, fix fb_defio use" from Lorenzo Stoakes changes the interaction between framebuffer deferred-io and core MM. No functional changes are anticipated - this is preparatory work for the future removal of page structure fields. - The series "mm/damon: add support for hugepage_size DAMOS filter" from Usama Arif adds a DAMOS filter which permits the filtering by huge page sizes. - The series "mm: permit guard regions for file-backed/shmem mappings" from Lorenzo Stoakes extends the guard region feature from its present "anon mappings only" state. The feature now covers shmem and file-backed mappings. - The series "mm: batched unmap lazyfree large folios during reclamation" from Barry Song cleans up and speeds up the unmapping for pte-mapped large folios. - The series "reimplement per-vma lock as a refcount" from Suren Baghdasaryan puts the vm_lock back into the vma. Our reasons for pulling it out were largely bogus and that change made the code more messy. This patchset provides small (0-10%) improvements on one microbenchmark. - The series "Docs/mm/damon: misc DAMOS filters documentation fixes and improves" from SeongJae Park does some maintenance work on the DAMON docs. - The series "hugetlb/CMA improvements for large systems" from Frank van der Linden addresses a pile of issues which have been observed when using CMA on large machines. - The series "mm/damon: introduce DAMOS filter type for unmapped pages" from SeongJae Park enables users of DMAON/DAMOS to filter my the page's mapped/unmapped status. - The series "zsmalloc/zram: there be preemption" from Sergey Senozhatsky teaches zram to run its compression and decompression operations preemptibly. - The series "selftests/mm: Some cleanups from trying to run them" from Brendan Jackman fixes a pile of unrelated issues which Brendan encountered while runnimg our selftests. - The series "fs/proc/task_mmu: add guard region bit to pagemap" from Lorenzo Stoakes permits userspace to use /proc/pid/pagemap to determine whether a particular page is a guard page. - The series "mm, swap: remove swap slot cache" from Kairui Song removes the swap slot cache from the allocation path - it simply wasn't being effective. - The series "mm: cleanups for device-exclusive entries (hmm)" from David Hildenbrand implements a number of unrelated cleanups in this code. - The series "mm: Rework generic PTDUMP configs" from Anshuman Khandual implements a number of preparatoty cleanups to the GENERIC_PTDUMP Kconfig logic. - The series "mm/damon: auto-tune aggregation interval" from SeongJae Park implements a feedback-driven automatic tuning feature for DAMON's aggregation interval tuning. - The series "Fix lazy mmu mode" from Ryan Roberts fixes some issues in powerpc, sparc and x86 lazy MMU implementations. Ryan did this in preparation for implementing lazy mmu mode for arm64 to optimize vmalloc. - The series "mm/page_alloc: Some clarifications for migratetype fallback" from Brendan Jackman reworks some commentary to make the code easier to follow. - The series "page_counter cleanup and size reduction" from Shakeel Butt cleans up the page_counter code and fixes a size increase which we accidentally added late last year. - The series "Add a command line option that enables control of how many threads should be used to allocate huge pages" from Thomas Prescher does that. It allows the careful operator to significantly reduce boot time by tuning the parallalization of huge page initialization. - The series "Fix calculations in trace_balance_dirty_pages() for cgwb" from Tang Yizhou fixes the tracing output from the dirty page balancing code. - The series "mm/damon: make allow filters after reject filters useful and intuitive" from SeongJae Park improves the handling of allow and reject filters. Behaviour is made more consistent and the documention is updated accordingly. - The series "Switch zswap to object read/write APIs" from Yosry Ahmed updates zswap to the new object read/write APIs and thus permits the removal of some legacy code from zpool and zsmalloc. - The series "Some trivial cleanups for shmem" from Baolin Wang does as it claims. - The series "fs/dax: Fix ZONE_DEVICE page reference counts" from Alistair Popple regularizes the weird ZONE_DEVICE page refcount handling in DAX, permittig the removal of a number of special-case checks. - The series "refactor mremap and fix bug" from Lorenzo Stoakes is a preparatoty refactoring and cleanup of the mremap() code. - The series "mm: MM owner tracking for large folios (!hugetlb) + CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT" from David Hildenbrand reworks the manner in which we determine whether a large folio is known to be mapped exclusively into a single MM. - The series "mm/damon: add sysfs dirs for managing DAMOS filters based on handling layers" from SeongJae Park adds a couple of new sysfs directories to ease the management of DAMON/DAMOS filters. - The series "arch, mm: reduce code duplication in mem_init()" from Mike Rapoport consolidates many per-arch implementations of mem_init() into code generic code, where that is practical. - The series "mm/damon/sysfs: commit parameters online via damon_call()" from SeongJae Park continues the cleaning up of sysfs access to DAMON internal data. - The series "mm: page_ext: Introduce new iteration API" from Luiz Capitulino reworks the page_ext initialization to fix a boot-time crash which was observed with an unusual combination of compile and cmdline options. - The series "Buddy allocator like (or non-uniform) folio split" from Zi Yan reworks the code to split a folio into smaller folios. The main benefit is lessened memory consumption: fewer post-split folios are generated. - The series "Minimize xa_node allocation during xarry split" from Zi Yan reduces the number of xarray xa_nodes which are generated during an xarray split. - The series "drivers/base/memory: Two cleanups" from Gavin Shan performs some maintenance work on the drivers/base/memory code. - The series "Add tracepoints for lowmem reserves, watermarks and totalreserve_pages" from Martin Liu adds some more tracepoints to the page allocator code. - The series "mm/madvise: cleanup requests validations and classifications" from SeongJae Park cleans up some warts which SeongJae observed during his earlier madvise work. - The series "mm/hwpoison: Fix regressions in memory failure handling" from Shuai Xue addresses two quite serious regressions which Shuai has observed in the memory-failure implementation. - The series "mm: reliable huge page allocator" from Johannes Weiner makes huge page allocations cheaper and more reliable by reducing fragmentation. - The series "Minor memcg cleanups & prep for memdescs" from Matthew Wilcox is preparatory work for the future implementation of memdescs. - The series "track memory used by balloon drivers" from Nico Pache introduces a way to track memory used by our various balloon drivers. - The series "mm/damon: introduce DAMOS filter type for active pages" from Nhat Pham permits users to filter for active/inactive pages, separately for file and anon pages. - The series "Adding Proactive Memory Reclaim Statistics" from Hao Jia separates the proactive reclaim statistics from the direct reclaim statistics. - The series "mm/vmscan: don't try to reclaim hwpoison folio" from Jinjiang Tu fixes our handling of hwpoisoned pages within the reclaim code. * tag 'mm-stable-2025-03-30-16-52' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm: (431 commits) mm/page_alloc: remove unnecessary __maybe_unused in order_to_pindex() x86/mm: restore early initialization of high_memory for 32-bits mm/vmscan: don't try to reclaim hwpoison folio mm/hwpoison: introduce folio_contain_hwpoisoned_page() helper cgroup: docs: add pswpin and pswpout items in cgroup v2 doc mm: vmscan: split proactive reclaim statistics from direct reclaim statistics selftests/mm: speed up split_huge_page_test selftests/mm: uffd-unit-tests support for hugepages > 2M docs/mm/damon/design: document active DAMOS filter type mm/damon: implement a new DAMOS filter type for active pages fs/dax: don't disassociate zero page entries MM documentation: add "Unaccepted" meminfo entry selftests/mm: add commentary about 9pfs bugs fork: use __vmalloc_node() for stack allocation docs/mm: Physical Memory: Populate the "Zones" section xen: balloon: update the NR_BALLOON_PAGES state hv_balloon: update the NR_BALLOON_PAGES state balloon_compaction: update the NR_BALLOON_PAGES state meminfo: add a per node counter for balloon drivers mm: remove references to folio in __memcg_kmem_uncharge_page() ... |

objtool: Fix C jump table annotations for Clang
A C jump table (such as the one used by the BPF interpreter) is a const
global array of absolute code addresses, and this means that the actual
values in the table may not be known until the kernel is booted (e.g.,
when using KASLR or when the kernel VA space is sized dynamically).
When using PIE codegen, the compiler will default to placing such const
global objects in .data.rel.ro (which is annotated as writable), rather
than .rodata (which is annotated as read-only). As C jump tables are
explicitly emitted into .rodata, this used to result in warnings for
LoongArch builds (which uses PIE codegen for the entire kernel) like
Warning: setting incorrect section attributes for .rodata..c_jump_table
due to the fact that the explicitly specified .rodata section inherited
the read-write annotation that the compiler uses for such objects when
using PIE codegen.
This warning was suppressed by explicitly adding the read-only
annotation to the __attribute__((section(""))) string, by commit

x86/cfi: Clean up linkage
With the introduction of kCFI the addition of ENDBR to SYM_FUNC_START* no longer suffices to make the function indirectly callable. This now requires the use of SYM_TYPED_FUNC_START. As such, remove the implicit ENDBR from SYM_FUNC_START* and add some explicit annotations to fix things up again.
