mm: khugepaged: recheck pmd state in retract_page_tables()
Patch series "synchronously scan and reclaim empty user PTE pages", v4. Previously, we tried to use a completely asynchronous method to reclaim empty user PTE pages [1]. After discussing with David Hildenbrand, we decided to implement synchronous reclaimation in the case of madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) as the first step. So this series aims to synchronously free the empty PTE pages in madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) case. We will detect and free empty PTE pages in zap_pte_range(), and will add zap_details.reclaim_pt to exclude cases other than madvise(MADV_DONTNEED). In zap_pte_range(), mmu_gather is used to perform batch tlb flushing and page freeing operations. Therefore, if we want to free the empty PTE page in this path, the most natural way is to add it to mmu_gather as well. Now, if CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE is selected, mmu_gather will free page table pages by semi RCU: - batch table freeing: asynchronous free by RCU - single table freeing: IPI + synchronous free But this is not enough to free the empty PTE page table pages in paths other that munmap and exit_mmap path, because IPI cannot be synchronized with rcu_read_lock() in pte_offset_map{_lock}(). So we should let single table also be freed by RCU like batch table freeing. As a first step, we supported this feature on x86_64 and selectd the newly introduced CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_PT_RECLAIM. For other cases such as madvise(MADV_FREE), consider scanning and freeing empty PTE pages asynchronously in the future. Note: issues related to TLB flushing are not new to this series and are tracked in the separate RFC patch [3]. And more context please refer to this thread [4]. [1]. https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/cover.1718267194.git.zhengqi.arch@bytedance.com/ [2]. https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/cover.1727332572.git.zhengqi.arch@bytedance.com/ [3]. https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20240815120715.14516-1-zhengqi.arch@bytedance.com/ [4]. https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/6f38cb19-9847-4f70-bbe7-06881bb016be@bytedance.com/ This patch (of 12): In retract_page_tables(), the lock of new_folio is still held, we will be blocked in the page fault path, which prevents the pte entries from being set again. So even though the old empty PTE page may be concurrently freed and a new PTE page is filled into the pmd entry, it is still empty and can be removed. So just refactor the retract_page_tables() a little bit and recheck the pmd state after holding the pmd lock.

docs/mm: add VMA locks documentation
Locking around VMAs is complicated and confusing. While we have a number of disparate comments scattered around the place, we seem to be reaching a level of complexity that justifies a serious effort at clearly documenting how locks are expected to be used when it comes to interacting with mm_struct and vm_area_struct objects. This is especially pertinent as regards the efforts to find sensible abstractions for these fundamental objects in kernel rust code whose compiler strictly requires some means of expressing these rules (and through this expression, self-document these requirements as well as enforce them). The document limits scope to mmap and VMA locks and those that are immediately adjacent and relevant to them - so additionally covers page table locking as this is so very closely tied to VMA operations (and relies upon us handling these correctly). The document tries to cover some of the nastier and more confusing edge cases and concerns especially around lock ordering and page table teardown. The document is split between generally useful information for users of mm interfaces, and separately a section intended for mm kernel developers providing a discussion around internal implementation details.

Docs/mm/damon: recommend academic papers to read and/or cite
Kernel documentation is the most up-to-date and recommended resource for DAMON. It doesn't cover non-kernel part of the entire project[1], though. Also it is not optimum for formal long-term citations. Depending on cases, DAMON academic papers[2,3] could be better to be read and cited. However, there is no clear guidance for those. Add a paragraph for DAMON academic papers on the kernel documentation for DAMON.

alloc_tag: support for page allocation tag compression
Implement support for storing page allocation tag references directly in the page flags instead of page extensions. sysctl.vm.mem_profiling boot parameter it extended to provide a way for a user to request this mode. Enabling compression eliminates memory overhead caused by page_ext and results in better performance for page allocations. However this mode will not work if the number of available page flag bits is insufficient to address all kernel allocations. Such condition can happen during boot or when loading a module. If this condition is detected, memory allocation profiling gets disabled with an appropriate warning. By default compression mode is disabled.

mm: pgtable: introduce pte_offset_map_{ro|rw}_nolock()
Patch series "introduce pte_offset_map_{ro|rw}_nolock()", v5. As proposed by David Hildenbrand [1], this series introduces the following two new helper functions to replace pte_offset_map_nolock(). 1. pte_offset_map_ro_nolock() 2. pte_offset_map_rw_nolock() As the name suggests, pte_offset_map_ro_nolock() is used for read-only case. In this case, only read-only operations will be performed on PTE page after the PTL is held. The RCU lock in pte_offset_map_nolock() will ensure that the PTE page will not be freed, and there is no need to worry about whether the pmd entry is modified. Therefore pte_offset_map_ro_nolock() is just a renamed version of pte_offset_map_nolock(). pte_offset_map_rw_nolock() is used for may-write case. In this case, the pte or pmd entry may be modified after the PTL is held, so we need to ensure that the pmd entry has not been modified concurrently. So in addition to the name change, it also outputs the pmdval when successful. The users should make sure the page table is stable like checking pte_same() or checking pmd_same() by using the output pmdval before performing the write operations. This series will convert all pte_offset_map_nolock() into the above two helper functions one by one, and finally completely delete it. This also a preparation for reclaiming the empty user PTE page table pages. This patch (of 13): Currently, the usage of pte_offset_map_nolock() can be divided into the following two cases: 1) After acquiring PTL, only read-only operations are performed on the PTE page. In this case, the RCU lock in pte_offset_map_nolock() will ensure that the PTE page will not be freed, and there is no need to worry about whether the pmd entry is modified. 2) After acquiring PTL, the pte or pmd entries may be modified. At this time, we need to ensure that the pmd entry has not been modified concurrently. To more clearing distinguish between these two cases, this commit introduces two new helper functions to replace pte_offset_map_nolock(). For 1), just rename it to pte_offset_map_ro_nolock(). For 2), in addition to changing the name to pte_offset_map_rw_nolock(), it also outputs the pmdval when successful. It is applicable for may-write cases where any modification operations to the page table may happen after the corresponding spinlock is held afterwards. But the users should make sure the page table is stable like checking pte_same() or checking pmd_same() by using the output pmdval before performing the write operations. Note: "RO" / "RW" expresses the intended semantics, not that the *kmap* will be read-only/read-write protected. Subsequent commits will convert pte_offset_map_nolock() into the above two functions one by one, and finally completely delete it.

SLUB: Add support for per object memory policies
The old SLAB allocator used to support memory policies on a per allocation bases. In SLUB the memory policies are applied on a per page frame / folio bases. Doing so avoids having to check memory policies in critical code paths for kmalloc and friends. This worked on general well on Intel/AMD/PowerPC because the interconnect technology is mature and can minimize the latencies through intelligent caching even if a small object is not placed optimally. However, on ARM we have an emergence of new NUMA interconnect technology based more on embedded devices. Caching of remote content can currently be ineffective using the standard building blocks / mesh available on that platform. Such architectures benefit if each slab object is individually placed according to memory policies and other restrictions. This patch adds another kernel parameter slab_strict_numa If that is set then a static branch is activated that will cause the hotpaths of the allocator to evaluate the current memory allocation policy. Each object will be properly placed by paying the price of extra processing and SLUB will no longer defer to the page allocator to apply memory policies at the folio level. This patch improves performance of memcached running on Ampere Altra 2P system (ARM Neoverse N1 processor) by 3.6% due to accurate placement of small kernel objects.

Docs/mm/damon/design: remove 'Programmable Modules' section in favor of 'Modules' section
'Programmable Modules' section provides high level descriptions of the DAMON API-based kernel modules layer. But 'Modules' section, which is at the end of the document, provides every detail about the layer including that of 'Programmable Modules' section. Since the brief summary of the layers at the beginning of the document has a link to the 'Modules' section, browsing to the section is not that difficult. Remove 'Programmable Modules' section in favor of 'Modules' section and reducing duplicates.

Fixup typos, clarify regions merging operation design with recent change, add access pattern snapshot example use case, and improve readability of the design document and subsystem documents index by reorganizing/wordsmithing and adding links to other sections and/or documents for easy browsing. This patch (of 9): Fix two typos. The first one is just a simple typo: s/accurach/accuracy/ The second one is made by the author being out of their mind. 'Region Based Sampling' section of the doc is mistakenly calling the access frequency counter of region as 'nr_regions'. Fix it with the correct name, 'nr_accesses'.

Docs/mm/damon/maintainer-profile: document DAMON community meetups
DAMON bi-weekly community meetup series has continued since 2022-08-15 for community members who prefer synchronous chat over asynchronous mails. Recently I got some feedbacks about the series from a few people. They told me the series is helpful for understanding of the project and particiapting to the development, but it could be further better in terms of the visibility. Based on that, I started sending meeting reminder for every occurrence. For people who don't subscribe the mailing list, however, adding an announcement on the official document could be helpful. Document the series on DAMON maintainer's profile for the purpose.

Docs/mm/damon/maintainer-profile: introduce HacKerMaiL
Patch series "Docs/mm/damon/maintaier-profile: document a mailing tool and community meetup series", v2. There is a mailing tool that developed and maintained by DAMON maintainer aiming to support DAMON community. Also there are DAMON community meetup series. Both are known to have rooms of improvements in terms of their visibility. Document those on the maintainer's profile document. This patch (of 2): Since DAMON was merged into mainline, I periodically received some questions around DAMON's mailing lists based workflow. The workflow is not different from the normal ones that well documented, but it is also true that it is not always easy and familiar for everyone. I personally overcame it by developing and using a simple tool, named HacKerMaiL (hkml)[1]. Based on my experience, I believe it is matured enough to be used for simple workflows like that of DAMON. Actually some DAMON contributors and Linux kernel developers other than myself told me they are using the tool. As DAMON maintainer, I also believe helping new DAMON community members onboarding to the worklow is one of the most important parts of my responsibilities. For the reason, the tool is announced[2] to support DAMON community. To further increasing the visibility of the fact, document the tool and the support plan on DAMON maintainer's profile.

The memory allocation profiling document was added to the bottom of the new outline. Apparently it was not decided by well-defined guidelines or a thorough discussions. Rather than that, it was added there just because there was no place for such unsorted documents. Now there is the chapter. Move the document to the new place.

Docs/mm/index: rename 'Legacy Documentation' to 'Unsorted Documentation'
The intention of 'Legacy Documentation' chapter is to keep the old documents that not yet sorted into the new outline, and encourage new documents to be integrated in the new outline from the beginning. However, the new outline will take some more time to be completed. It has started about two years ago, and still many parts are not yet written. Also, there is no clear guidline for placing each document for all cases, for not only the 'legacy' documents, but also for new documents. For example, memory allocation profiling document has been added to the bottom of the new outline. Apparently it was not following some well-defined guideliens or a result of a discussion. Furthermore, the title ("legacy") makes people feel the documents on the chapter might be outdated or not actively maintained. Rename 'Legacy Documentation' to 'Unsorted Documentation' and remove the description saying it is for 'older' documents. After this change, new documents that not clear enough where it should be placed on the new outline can be added on the chapter while well-defined guidelines or discussion for the new outline is made.

Docs/mm/index: Remove 'Memory Management Guide' chapter marker
'Memory Management Guide' chapter aims to be not an additional chapter of the document, but the ultimate single outline of the document. In the sense, marking it as a chapter under the document makes no sense, and the rendered document looks odd. Remove the chapter marker.

Docs/mm/allocation-profiling: mark 'Theory of operation' as chapter
'Theory of operation' part of allocation-profiling document is apparently a chapter. However, it is mistakenly marked as a document title. As a result, rendered mm document index page shows two items for the document. Fix it to be marked as a chapter.

Networking changes for 6.10.
Core & protocols ---------------- - Complete rework of garbage collection of AF_UNIX sockets. AF_UNIX is prone to forming reference count cycles due to fd passing functionality. New method based on Tarjan's Strongly Connected Components algorithm should be both faster and remove a lot of workarounds we accumulated over the years. - Add TCP fraglist GRO support, allowing chaining multiple TCP packets and forwarding them together. Useful for small switches / routers which lack basic checksum offload in some scenarios (e.g. PPPoE). - Support using SMP threads for handling packet backlog i.e. packet processing from software interfaces and old drivers which don't use NAPI. This helps move the processing out of the softirq jumble. - Continue work of converting from rtnl lock to RCU protection. Don't require rtnl lock when reading: IPv6 routing FIB, IPv6 address labels, netdev threaded NAPI sysfs files, bonding driver's sysfs files, MPLS devconf, IPv4 FIB rules, netns IDs, tcp metrics, TC Qdiscs, neighbor entries, ARP entries via ioctl(SIOCGARP), a lot of the link information available via rtnetlink. - Small optimizations from Eric to UDP wake up handling, memory accounting, RPS/RFS implementation, TCP packet sizing etc. - Allow direct page recycling in the bulk API used by XDP, for +2% PPS. - Support peek with an offset on TCP sockets. - Add MPTCP APIs for querying last time packets were received/sent/acked, and whether MPTCP "upgrade" succeeded on a TCP socket. - Add intra-node communication shortcut to improve SMC performance. - Add IPv6 (and IPv{4,6}-over-IPv{4,6}) support to the GTP protocol driver. - Add HSR-SAN (RedBOX) mode of operation to the HSR protocol driver. - Add reset reasons for tracing what caused a TCP reset to be sent. - Introduce direction attribute for xfrm (IPSec) states. State can be used either for input or output packet processing. Things we sprinkled into general kernel code -------------------------------------------- - Add bitmap_{read,write}(), bitmap_size(), expose BYTES_TO_BITS(). This required touch-ups and renaming of a few existing users. - Add Endian-dependent __counted_by_{le,be} annotations. - Make building selftests "quieter" by printing summaries like "CC object.o" rather than full commands with all the arguments. Netfilter --------- - Use GFP_KERNEL to clone elements, to deal better with OOM situations and avoid failures in the .commit step. BPF --- - Add eBPF JIT for ARCv2 CPUs. - Support attaching kprobe BPF programs through kprobe_multi link in a session mode, meaning, a BPF program is attached to both function entry and return, the entry program can decide if the return program gets executed and the entry program can share u64 cookie value with return program. "Session mode" is a common use-case for tetragon and bpftrace. - Add the ability to specify and retrieve BPF cookie for raw tracepoint programs in order to ease migration from classic to raw tracepoints. - Add an internal-only BPF per-CPU instruction for resolving per-CPU memory addresses and implement support in x86, ARM64 and RISC-V JITs. This allows inlining functions which need to access per-CPU state. - Optimize x86 BPF JIT's emit_mov_imm64, and add support for various atomics in bpf_arena which can be JITed as a single x86 instruction. Support BPF arena on ARM64. - Add a new bpf_wq API for deferring events and refactor process-context bpf_timer code to keep common code where possible. - Harden the BPF verifier's and/or/xor value tracking. - Introduce crypto kfuncs to let BPF programs call kernel crypto APIs. - Support bpf_tail_call_static() helper for BPF programs with GCC 13. - Add bpf_preempt_{disable,enable}() kfuncs in order to allow a BPF program to have code sections where preemption is disabled. Driver API ---------- - Skip software TC processing completely if all installed rules are marked as HW-only, instead of checking the HW-only flag rule by rule. - Add support for configuring PoE (Power over Ethernet), similar to the already existing support for PoDL (Power over Data Line) config. - Initial bits of a queue control API, for now allowing a single queue to be reset without disturbing packet flow to other queues. - Common (ethtool) statistics for hardware timestamping. Tests and tooling ----------------- - Remove the need to create a config file to run the net forwarding tests so that a naive "make run_tests" can exercise them. - Define a method of writing tests which require an external endpoint to communicate with (to send/receive data towards the test machine). Add a few such tests. - Create a shared code library for writing Python tests. Expose the YAML Netlink library from tools/ to the tests for easy Netlink access. - Move netfilter tests under net/, extend them, separate performance tests from correctness tests, and iron out issues found by running them "on every commit". - Refactor BPF selftests to use common network helpers. - Further work filling in YAML definitions of Netlink messages for: nftables, team driver, bonding interfaces, vlan interfaces, VF info, TC u32 mark, TC police action. - Teach Python YAML Netlink to decode attribute policies. - Extend the definition of the "indexed array" construct in the specs to cover arrays of scalars rather than just nests. - Add hyperlinks between definitions in generated Netlink docs. Drivers ------- - Make sure unsupported flower control flags are rejected by drivers, and make more drivers report errors directly to the application rather than dmesg (large number of driver changes from Asbjørn Sloth Tønnesen). - Ethernet high-speed NICs: - Broadcom (bnxt): - support multiple RSS contexts and steering traffic to them - support XDP metadata - make page pool allocations more NUMA aware - Intel (100G, ice, idpf): - extract datapath code common among Intel drivers into a library - use fewer resources in switchdev by sharing queues with the PF - add PFCP filter support - add Ethernet filter support - use a spinlock instead of HW lock in PTP clock ops - support 5 layer Tx scheduler topology - nVidia/Mellanox: - 800G link modes and 100G SerDes speeds - per-queue IRQ coalescing configuration - Marvell Octeon: - support offloading TC packet mark action - Ethernet NICs consumer, embedded and virtual: - stop lying about skb->truesize in USB Ethernet drivers, it messes up TCP memory calculations - Google cloud vNIC: - support changing ring size via ethtool - support ring reset using the queue control API - VirtIO net: - expose flow hash from RSS to XDP - per-queue statistics - add selftests - Synopsys (stmmac): - support controllers which require an RX clock signal from the MII bus to perform their hardware initialization - TI: - icssg_prueth: support ICSSG-based Ethernet on AM65x SR1.0 devices - icssg_prueth: add SW TX / RX Coalescing based on hrtimers - cpsw: minimal XDP support - Renesas (ravb): - support describing the MDIO bus - Realtek (r8169): - add support for RTL8168M - Microchip Sparx5: - matchall and flower actions mirred and redirect - Ethernet switches: - nVidia/Mellanox: - improve events processing performance - Marvell: - add support for MV88E6250 family internal PHYs - Microchip: - add DCB and DSCP mapping support for KSZ switches - vsc73xx: convert to PHYLINK - Realtek: - rtl8226b/rtl8221b: add C45 instances and SerDes switching - Many driver changes related to PHYLIB and PHYLINK deprecated API cleanup. - Ethernet PHYs: - Add a new driver for Airoha EN8811H 2.5 Gigabit PHY. - micrel: lan8814: add support for PPS out and external timestamp trigger - WiFi: - Disable Wireless Extensions (WEXT) in all Wi-Fi 7 devices drivers. Modern devices can only be configured using nl80211. - mac80211/cfg80211 - handle color change per link for WiFi 7 Multi-Link Operation - Intel (iwlwifi): - don't support puncturing in 5 GHz - support monitor mode on passive channels - BZ-W device support - P2P with HE/EHT support - re-add support for firmware API 90 - provide channel survey information for Automatic Channel Selection - MediaTek (mt76): - mt7921 LED control - mt7925 EHT radiotap support - mt7920e PCI support - Qualcomm (ath11k): - P2P support for QCA6390, WCN6855 and QCA2066 - support hibernation - ieee80211-freq-limit Device Tree property support - Qualcomm (ath12k): - refactoring in preparation of multi-link support - suspend and hibernation support - ACPI support - debugfs support, including dfs_simulate_radar support - RealTek: - rtw88: RTL8723CS SDIO device support - rtw89: RTL8922AE Wi-Fi 7 PCI device support - rtw89: complete features of new WiFi 7 chip 8922AE including BT-coexistence and Wake-on-WLAN - rtw89: use BIOS ACPI settings to set TX power and channels - rtl8xxxu: enable Management Frame Protection (MFP) support - Bluetooth: - support for Intel BlazarI and Filmore Peak2 (BE201) - support for MediaTek MT7921S SDIO - initial support for Intel PCIe BT driver - remove HCI_AMP support Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAABCAAdFiEE6jPA+I1ugmIBA4hXMUZtbf5SIrsFAmZD6sQACgkQMUZtbf5S IrtLYw/+I73ePGIye37o2jpbodcLAUZVfF3r6uYUzK8hokEcKD0QVJa9w7PizLZ3 UO45ClOXFLJCkfP4reFenLfxGCel2AJI+F7VFl2xaO2XgrcH/lnVrHqKZEAEXjls KoYMnShIolv7h2MKP6hHtyTi2j1wvQUKsZC71o9/fuW+4fUT8gECx1YtYcL73wrw gEMdlUgBYC3jiiCUHJIFX6iPJ2t/TC+q1eIIF2K/Osrk2kIqQhzoozcL4vpuAZQT 99ljx/qRelXa8oppDb7nM5eulg7WY8ZqxEfFZphTMC5nLEGzClxuOTTl2kDYI/D/ UZmTWZDY+F5F0xvNk2gH84qVJXBOVDoobpT7hVA/tDuybobc/kvGDzRayEVqVzKj Q0tPlJs+xBZpkK5TVnxaFLJVOM+p1Xosxy3kNVXmuYNBvT/R89UbJiCrUKqKZF+L z/1mOYUv8UklHqYAeuJSptHvqJjTGa/fsEYP7dAUBbc1N2eVB8mzZ4mgU5rYXbtC E6UXXiWnoSRm8bmco9QmcWWoXt5UGEizHSJLz6t1R5Df/YmXhWlytll5aCwY1ksf FNoL7S4u7AZThL1Nwi7yUs4CAjhk/N4aOsk+41S0sALCx30BJuI6UdesAxJ0lu+Z fwCQYbs27y4p7mBLbkYwcQNxAxGm7PSK4yeyRIy2njiyV4qnLf8= =EsC2 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'net-next-6.10' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski: "Core & protocols: - Complete rework of garbage collection of AF_UNIX sockets.

Support BPF arena on ARM64. - Add a new bpf_wq API for deferring events and refactor process-context bpf_timer code to keep common code where possible. - Harden the BPF verifier's and/or/xor value tracking. - Introduce crypto kfuncs to let BPF programs call kernel crypto APIs. - Support bpf_tail_call_static() helper for BPF programs with GCC 13. - Add bpf_preempt_{disable,enable}() kfuncs in order to allow a BPF program to have code sections where preemption is disabled. Driver API: - Skip software TC processing completely if all installed rules are marked as HW-only, instead of checking the HW-only flag rule by rule. - Add support for configuring PoE (Power over Ethernet), similar to the already existing support for PoDL (Power over Data Line) config. - Initial bits of a queue control API, for now allowing a single queue to be reset without disturbing packet flow to other queues. - Common (ethtool) statistics for hardware timestamping. Tests and tooling: - Remove the need to create a config file to run the net forwarding tests so that a naive "make run_tests" can exercise them. - Define a method of writing tests which require an external endpoint to communicate with (to send/receive data towards the test machine). Add a few such tests. - Create a shared code library for writing Python tests. Expose the YAML Netlink library from tools/ to the tests for easy Netlink access. - Move netfilter tests under net/, extend them, separate performance tests from correctness tests, and iron out issues found by running them "on every commit". - Refactor BPF selftests to use common network helpers. - Further work filling in YAML definitions of Netlink messages for: nftables, team driver, bonding interfaces, vlan interfaces, VF info, TC u32 mark, TC police action. - Teach Python YAML Netlink to decode attribute policies. - Extend the definition of the "indexed array" construct in the specs to cover arrays of scalars rather than just nests. - Add hyperlinks between definitions in generated Netlink docs. Drivers: - Make sure unsupported flower control flags are rejected by drivers, and make more drivers report errors directly to the application rather than dmesg (large number of driver changes from Asbjørn Sloth Tønnesen). - Ethernet high-speed NICs: - Broadcom (bnxt): - support multiple RSS contexts and steering traffic to them - support XDP metadata - make page pool allocations more NUMA aware - Intel (100G, ice, idpf): - extract datapath code common among Intel drivers into a library - use fewer resources in switchdev by sharing queues with the PF - add PFCP filter support - add Ethernet filter support - use a spinlock instead of HW lock in PTP clock ops - support 5 layer Tx scheduler topology - nVidia/Mellanox: - 800G link modes and 100G SerDes speeds - per-queue IRQ coalescing configuration - Marvell Octeon: - support offloading TC packet mark action - Ethernet NICs consumer, embedded and virtual: - stop lying about skb->truesize in USB Ethernet drivers, it messes up TCP memory calculations - Google cloud vNIC: - support changing ring size via ethtool - support ring reset using the queue control API - VirtIO net: - expose flow hash from RSS to XDP - per-queue statistics - add selftests - Synopsys (stmmac): - support controllers which require an RX clock signal from the MII bus to perform their hardware initialization - TI: - icssg_prueth: support ICSSG-based Ethernet on AM65x SR1.0 devices - icssg_prueth: add SW TX / RX Coalescing based on hrtimers - cpsw: minimal XDP support - Renesas (ravb): - support describing the MDIO bus - Realtek (r8169): - add support for RTL8168M - Microchip Sparx5: - matchall and flower actions mirred and redirect - Ethernet switches: - nVidia/Mellanox: - improve events processing performance - Marvell: - add support for MV88E6250 family internal PHYs - Microchip: - add DCB and DSCP mapping support for KSZ switches - vsc73xx: convert to PHYLINK - Realtek: - rtl8226b/rtl8221b: add C45 instances and SerDes switching - Many driver changes related to PHYLIB and PHYLINK deprecated API cleanup - Ethernet PHYs: - Add a new driver for Airoha EN8811H 2.5 Gigabit PHY. - micrel: lan8814: add support for PPS out and external timestamp trigger - WiFi: - Disable Wireless Extensions (WEXT) in all Wi-Fi 7 devices drivers.

Docs/mm/damon/maintainer-profile: allow posting patches based on damon/next tree
The document mentions any patches for review should based on mm-unstable instead of damon/next. It should be the recommended process, but sometimes patches based on damon/next could be posted for some reasons. Actually, the DAMON-based tiered memory management patchset[1] was written on top of 'young page' DAMOS filter patchset, which was in damon/next tree as of the writing. Allow such case and just ask such things to be clearly specified.

mm: fix race between __split_huge_pmd_locked() and GUP-fast
__split_huge_pmd_locked() can be called for a present THP, devmap or
(non-present) migration entry. It calls pmdp_invalidate() unconditionally
on the pmdp and only determines if it is present or not based on the
returned old pmd. This is a problem for the migration entry case because
pmd_mkinvalid(), called by pmdp_invalidate() must only be called for a
present pmd.
On arm64 at least, pmd_mkinvalid() will mark the pmd such that any future
call to pmd_present() will return true. And therefore any lockless
pgtable walker could see the migration entry pmd in this state and start
interpretting the fields as if it were present, leading to BadThings (TM).
GUP-fast appears to be one such lockless pgtable walker.
x86 does not suffer the above problem, but instead pmd_mkinvalid() will
corrupt the offset field of the swap entry within the swap pte. See link
below for discussion of that problem.
Fix all of this by only calling pmdp_invalidate() for a present pmd. And
for good measure let's add a warning to all implementations of
pmdp_invalidate[_ad](). I've manually reviewed all other
pmdp_invalidate[_ad]() call sites and believe all others to be conformant.
This is a theoretical bug found during code review. I don't have any test
case to trigger it in practice.
