Pull timer core updates from Thomas Gleixner:
- A rework of the hrtimer subsystem to reduce the overhead for
frequently armed timers, especially the hrtick scheduler timer:
- Better timer locality decision
- Simplification of the evaluation of the first expiry time by
keeping track of the neighbor timers in the RB-tree by providing
a RB-tree variant with neighbor links. That avoids walking the
RB-tree on removal to find the next expiry time, but even more
important allows to quickly evaluate whether a timer which is
rearmed changes the position in the RB-tree with the modified
expiry time or not. If not, the dequeue/enqueue sequence which
both can end up in rebalancing can be completely avoided.
- Deferred reprogramming of the underlying clock event device. This
optimizes for the situation where a hrtimer callback sets the
need resched bit. In that case the code attempts to defer the
re-programming of the clock event device up to the point where
the scheduler has picked the next task and has the next hrtick
timer armed. In case that there is no immediate reschedule or
soft interrupts have to be handled before reaching the reschedule
point in the interrupt entry code the clock event is reprogrammed
in one of those code paths to prevent that the timer becomes
stale.
- Support for clocksource coupled clockevents
The TSC deadline timer is coupled to the TSC. The next event is
programmed in TSC time. Currently this is done by converting the
CLOCK_MONOTONIC based expiry value into a relative timeout,
converting it into TSC ticks, reading the TSC adding the delta
ticks and writing the deadline MSR.
As the timekeeping core has the conversion factors for the TSC
already, the whole back and forth conversion can be completely
avoided. The timekeeping core calculates the reverse conversion
factors from nanoseconds to TSC ticks and utilizes the base
timestamps of TSC and CLOCK_MONOTONIC which are updated once per
tick. This allows a direct conversion into the TSC deadline value
without reading the time and as a bonus keeps the deadline
conversion in sync with the TSC conversion factors, which are
updated by adjtimex() on systems with NTP/PTP enabled.
- Allow inlining of the clocksource read and clockevent write
functions when they are tiny enough, e.g. on x86 RDTSC and WRMSR.
With all those enhancements in place a hrtick enabled scheduler
provides the same performance as without hrtick. But also other
hrtimer users obviously benefit from these optimizations.
- Robustness improvements and cleanups of historical sins in the
hrtimer and timekeeping code.
- Rewrite of the clocksource watchdog.
The clocksource watchdog code has over time reached the state of an
impenetrable maze of duct tape and staples. The original design,
which was made in the context of systems far smaller than today, is
based on the assumption that the to be monitored clocksource (TSC)
can be trivially compared against a known to be stable clocksource
(HPET/ACPI-PM timer).
Over the years this rather naive approach turned out to have major
flaws. Long delays between the watchdog invocations can cause wrap
arounds of the reference clocksource. The access to the reference
clocksource degrades on large multi-sockets systems dure to
interconnect congestion. This has been addressed with various
heuristics which degraded the accuracy of the watchdog to the point
that it fails to detect actual TSC problems on older hardware which
exposes slow inter CPU drifts due to firmware manipulating the TSC to
hide SMI time.
The rewrite addresses this by:
- Restricting the validation against the reference clocksource to
the boot CPU which is usually closest to the legacy block which
contains the reference clocksource (HPET/ACPI-PM).
- Do a round robin validation betwen the boot CPU and the other
CPUs based only on the TSC with an algorithm similar to the TSC
synchronization code during CPU hotplug.
- Being more leniant versus remote timeouts
- The usual tiny fixes, cleanups and enhancements all over the place

"User visible changes:
- move shutdown ioctl support out of experimental features, a forced
stop of filesystem operation until the next unmount; additionally
there's a super block operation to forcibly remove a device from
under the filesystem that could lead to a shutdown or not if the
redundancy allows that
- report filesystem shutdown using fserror mechanism
- tree-checker updates:
- verify free space info, extent and bitmap items
- verify remap-tree items and related data in block group items
Performance improvements:
- speed up clearing first extent in the tracked range (+10%
throughput on sample workload)
- reduce COW rewrites of extent buffers during the same transaction
- avoid taking big device lock to update device stats during
transaction commit
- fix unnecessary flush on close when truncating empty files
(observed in practice on a backup application)
- prevent direct reclaim during compressed readahead to avoid stalls
under memory pressure
Notable fixes:
- fix chunk allocation strategy on RAID1-like block groups with
disproportionate device sizes, this could lead to ENOSPC due to
skewed reservation estimates
- adjust metadata reservation overcommit ratio to be less aggressive
and also try to flush if possible, this avoids ENOSPC and potential
transaction aborts in some edge cases (that are otherwise hard to
reproduce)
- fix silent IO error in encoded writes and ordered extent split in
zoned mode, the error was not correctly propagated to the address
space and could lead to zeroed ranges
- don't mark inline files NOCOMPRESS unexpectedly, the intent was to
do that for single block writes of regular files
- fix deadlock between reflink and transaction commit when using
flushoncommit
- fix overly strict item check of a running dev-replace operation
Core:
- zoned mode space reservation fixes:
- cap delayed refs metadata reservation to avoid overcommit
- update logic to reclaim partially unusable zones
- add another state to flush and reclaim partially used zone
- limit number of zones reclaimed in one go to avoid blocking
other operations
- don't let log trees consume global reserve on overcommit and fall
back to transaction commit
- revalidate extent buffer when checking its up-to-date status
- add self tests for zoned mode block group specifics
- reduce atomic allocations in some qgroup paths
- avoid unnecessary root node COW during snapshotting
- start new transaction in block group relocation conditionally
- faster check of NOCOW files on currently snapshotted root
- change how compressed bio size is tracked from bio and reduce the
structure size
- new tracepoint for search slot restart tracking
- checksum list manipulation improvements
- type, parameter cleanups, refactoring
- error handling improvements, transaction abort call adjustments"

Pull vfs i_ino updates from Christian Brauner:
"For historical reasons, the inode->i_ino field is an unsigned long,
which means that it's 32 bits on 32 bit architectures. This has caused
a number of filesystems to implement hacks to hash a 64-bit identifier
into a 32-bit field, and deprives us of a universal identifier field
for an inode.
This changes the inode->i_ino field from an unsigned long to a u64.
This shouldn't make any material difference on 64-bit hosts, but
32-bit hosts will see struct inode grow by at least 4 bytes. This
could have effects on slabcache sizes and field alignment.
The bulk of the changes are to format strings and tracepoints, since
the kernel itself doesn't care that much about the i_ino field. The
first patch changes some vfs function arguments, so check that one out
carefully.
With this change, we may be able to shrink some inode structures. For
instance, struct nfs_inode has a fileid field that holds the 64-bit
inode number. With this set of changes, that field could be
eliminated. I'd rather leave that sort of cleanups for later just to
keep this simple"

- Remove EROFS_MAP_ENCODED since it was always set together with
EROFS_MAP_MAPPED for compressed extents and checked redundantly;
- Replace the EROFS_MAP_FULL_MAPPED flag with the opposite
EROFS_MAP_PARTIAL_MAPPED flag so that extents are implicitly
fully mapped initially to simplify the logic;
- Make fragment extents independent of EROFS_MAP_MAPPED since
they are not directly allocated on disk; thus fragment extents
are no longer twisted with mapped extents.

The current MPTCP-level RTT estimator has several issues. On high speed
links, the MPTCP-level receive buffer auto-tuning happens with a
frequency well above the TCP-level's one. That in turn can cause
excessive/unneeded receive buffer increase.
On such links, the initial rtt_us value is considerably higher than the
actual delay, and the current mptcp_rcv_space_adjust() updates
msk->rcvq_space.rtt_us with a period equal to the such field previous
value. If the initial rtt_us is 40ms, its first update will happen after
40ms, even if the subflows see actual RTT orders of magnitude lower.
Additionally:
- setting the msk RTT to the maximum among all the subflows RTTs makes
DRS constantly overshooting the rcvbuf size when a subflow has
considerable higher latency than the other(s).
- during unidirectional bulk transfers with multiple active subflows,
the TCP-level RTT estimator occasionally sees considerably higher
value than the real link delay, i.e. when the packet scheduler reacts
to an incoming ACK on given subflow pushing data on a different
subflow.
- currently inactive but still open subflows (i.e. switched to backup
mode) are always considered when computing the msk-level RTT.
Address the all the issues above with a more accurate RTT estimation
strategy: the MPTCP-level RTT is set to the minimum of all the subflows
actually feeding data into the MPTCP receive buffer, using a small
sliding window.
While at it, also use EWMA to compute the msk-level scaling_ratio, to
that MPTCP can avoid traversing the subflow list is
mptcp_rcv_space_adjust().
Use some care to avoid updating msk and ssk level fields too often.

Fix rxrpc call removal from the rxnet->calls list to use list_del_rcu()
rather than list_del_init() to prevent stuffing up reading
/proc/net/rxrpc/calls from potentially getting into an infinite loop.
This, however, means that list_empty() no longer works on an entry that's
been deleted from the list, making it harder to detect prior deletion. Fix
this by:
Firstly, make rxrpc_destroy_all_calls() only dump the first ten calls that
are unexpectedly still on the list. Limiting the number of steps means
there's no need to call cond_resched() or to remove calls from the list
here, thereby eliminating the need for rxrpc_put_call() to check for that.
rxrpc_put_call() can then be fixed to unconditionally delete the call from
the list as it is the only place that the deletion occurs.

Add a btrfs_search_slot_restart tracepoint that fires at each restart
site in btrfs_search_slot(), recording the root, tree level, and
reason for the restart. This enables tracking search slot restarts
which contribute to COW amplification under memory pressure.
The four restart reasons are:
- write_lock: insufficient write lock level, need to restart with
higher lock
- setup_nodes: node setup returned -EAGAIN
- slot_zero: insertion at slot 0 requires higher write lock level
- read_block: read_block_for_search returned -EAGAIN (block not
cached or lock contention)
COW counts are already tracked by the existing trace_btrfs_cow_block()
tracepoint. The per-restart-site tracepoint avoids counter overhead
in the critical path when tracepoints are disabled, and provides
richer per-event information that bpftrace scripts can aggregate into
counts, histograms, and per-root breakdowns.

Pull vfs fixes from Christian Brauner:
- Fix netfs_limit_iter() hitting BUG() when an ITER_KVEC iterator
reaches it via core dump writes to 9P filesystems. Add ITER_KVEC
handling following the same pattern as the existing ITER_BVEC code.
- Fix a NULL pointer dereference in the netfs unbuffered write retry
path when the filesystem (e.g., 9P) doesn't set the prepare_write
operation.
- Clear I_DIRTY_TIME in sync_lazytime for filesystems implementing
->sync_lazytime. Without this the flag stays set and may cause
additional unnecessary calls during inode deactivation.
- Increase tmpfs size in mount_setattr selftests. A recent commit
bumped the ext4 image size to 2 GB but didn't adjust the tmpfs
backing store, so mkfs.ext4 fails with ENOSPC writing metadata.
- Fix an invalid folio access in iomap when i_blkbits matches the folio
size but differs from the I/O granularity. The cur_folio pointer
would not get invalidated and iomap_read_end() would still be called
on it despite the IO helper owning it.
- Fix hash_name() docstring.
- Fix read abandonment during netfs retry where the subreq variable
used for abandonment could be uninitialized on the first pass or
point to a deleted subrequest on later passes.
- Don't block sync for filesystems with no data integrity guarantees.
Add a SB_I_NO_DATA_INTEGRITY superblock flag replacing the per-inode
AS_NO_DATA_INTEGRITY mapping flag so sync kicks off writeback but
doesn't wait for flusher threads. This fixes a suspend-to-RAM hang on
fuse-overlayfs where the flusher thread blocks when the fuse daemon
is frozen.
- Fix a lockdep splat in iomap when reads fail. iomap_read_end_io()
invokes fserror_report() which calls igrab() taking i_lock in hardirq
context while i_lock is normally held with interrupts enabled. Kick
failed read handling to a workqueue.
- Remove the redundant netfs_io_stream::front member and use
stream->subrequests.next instead, fixing a potential issue in the

The netfs_io_stream::front member is meant to point to the subrequest
currently being collected on a stream, but it isn't actually used this way
by direct write (which mostly ignores it). However, there's a tracepoint
which looks at it. Further, stream->front is actually redundant with
stream->subrequests.next.
Fix the potential problem in the direct code by just removing the member
and using stream->subrequests.next instead, thereby also simplifying the
code.

Coredump is a generally useful and interesting event in the lifetime
of a process. Add a tracepoint so it can be monitored through the
standard kernel tracing infrastructure.
BPF-based crash monitoring is an advanced approach that
allows real-time crash interception: by attaching a BPF program at
this point, tools can use bpf_get_stack() with BPF_F_USER_STACK to
capture the user-space stack trace at the exact moment of the crash,
before the process is fully terminated, without waiting for a
coredump file to be written and parsed.
However, there is currently no stable kernel API for this use case.
Existing tools rely on attaching fentry probes to do_coredump(),
which is an internal function whose signature changes across kernel
versions, breaking these tools.
Add a stable tracepoint that fires at the beginning of
do_coredump(), providing BPF programs a reliable attachment point.
At tracepoint time, the crashing process context is still live, so
BPF programs can call bpf_get_stack() with BPF_F_USER_STACK to
extract the user-space backtrace.
The tracepoint records:
- sig: signal number that triggered the coredump
- comm: process name
Example output:
$ echo 1 > /sys/kernel/tracing/events/coredump/coredump/enable
$ sleep 999 &
$ kill -SEGV $!
$ cat /sys/kernel/tracing/trace

Fix netfslib such that when it's making an unbuffered or DIO write, to make
sure that it sends each subrequest strictly sequentially, waiting till the
previous one is 'committed' before sending the next so that we don't have
pieces landing out of order and potentially leaving a hole if an error
occurs (ENOSPC for example).
This is done by copying in just those bits of issuing, collecting and
retrying subrequests that are necessary to do one subrequest at a time.
Retrying, in particular, is simpler because if the current subrequest needs
retrying, the source iterator can just be copied again and the subrequest
prepped and issued again without needing to be concerned about whether it
needs merging with the previous or next in the sequence.
Note that the issuing loop waits for a subrequest to complete right after
issuing it, but this wait could be moved elsewhere allowing preparatory
steps to be performed whilst the subrequest is in progress. In particular,
once content encryption is available in netfslib, that could be done whilst
waiting, as could cleanup of buffers that have been completed.

The rss_stat trace event allows userspace tools, like Perfetto [1], to
inspect per-process RSS metric changes over time.
The curr field was introduced to rss_stat in commit e4dcad204d
("rss_stat: add support to detect RSS updates of external mm"). Its
intent is to indicate whether the RSS update is for the mm_struct of the
current execution context; and is set to false when operating on a remote
mm_struct (e.g., via kswapd or a direct reclaimer).
However, an issue arises when a kernel thread temporarily adopts a user
process's mm_struct. Kernel threads do not have their own mm_struct and
normally have current->mm set to NULL. To operate on user memory, they
can "borrow" a memory context using kthread_use_mm(), which sets
current->mm to the user process's mm.
This can be observed, for example, in the USB Function Filesystem (FFS)
driver. The ffs_user_copy_worker() handles AIO completions and uses
kthread_use_mm() to copy data to a user-space buffer. If a page fault
occurs during this copy, the fault handler executes in the kthread's
context.
At this point, current is the kthread, but current->mm points to the user
process's mm. Since the rss_stat event (from the page fault) is for that
same mm, the condition current->mm == mm becomes true, causing curr to be
incorrectly set to true when the trace event is emitted.
This is misleading because it suggests the mm belongs to the kthread,
confusing userspace tools that track per-process RSS changes and
corrupting their mm_id-to-process association.
Fix this by ensuring curr is always false when the trace event is emitted
from a kthread context by checking for the PF_KTHREAD flag.

Pull more misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"Features:
- Optimize close_range() from O(range size) to O(active FDs) by using
find_next_bit() on the open_fds bitmap instead of linearly scanning
the entire requested range. This is a significant improvement for
large-range close operations on sparse file descriptor tables.
- Add FS_XFLAG_VERITY file attribute for fs-verity files, retrievable
via FS_IOC_FSGETXATTR and file_getattr(). The flag is read-only.
Add tracepoints for fs-verity enable and verify operations,
replacing the previously removed debug printk's.
- Prevent nfsd from exporting special kernel filesystems like pidfs
and nsfs. These filesystems have custom ->open() and ->permission()
export methods that are designed for open_by_handle_at(2) only and
are incompatible with nfsd. Update the exportfs documentation
accordingly.
Fixes:
- Fix KMSAN uninit-value in ovl_fill_real() where strcmp() was used
on a non-null-terminated decrypted directory entry name from
fscrypt. This triggered on encrypted lower layers when the
decrypted name buffer contained uninitialized tail data.
The fix also adds VFS-level name_is_dot(), name_is_dotdot(), and
name_is_dot_dotdot() helpers, replacing various open-coded "." and
".." checks across the tree.
- Fix read-only fsflags not being reset together with xflags in
vfs_fileattr_set(). Currently harmless since no read-only xflags
overlap with flags, but this would cause inconsistencies for any
future shared read-only flag
- Return -EREMOTE instead of -ESRCH from PIDFD_GET_INFO when the
target process is in a different pid namespace. This lets userspace
distinguish "process exited" from "process in another namespace",
matching glibc's pidfd_getpid() behavior

"User visible changes:
- Add an entry into MAINTAINERS file for RUST versions of code
There's now RUST code for tracing and static branches. To
differentiate that code from the C code, add entries in for the
RUST version (with "[RUST]" around it) so that the right
maintainers get notified on changes.
- New bitmask-list option added to tracefs
When this is set, bitmasks in trace event are not displayed as hex
numbers, but instead as lists: e.g. 0-5,7,9 instead of 0000015f
- New show_event_filters file in tracefs
Instead of having to search all events/*/*/filter for any active
filters enabled in the trace instance, the file show_event_filters
will list them so that there's only one file that needs to be
examined to see if any filters are active.
- New show_event_triggers file in tracefs
Instead of having to search all events/*/*/trigger for any active
triggers enabled in the trace instance, the file
show_event_triggers will list them so that there's only one file
that needs to be examined to see if any triggers are active.
- Have traceoff_on_warning disable trace pintk buffer too
Recently recording of trace_printk() could go to other trace
instances instead of the top level instance. But if
traceoff_on_warning triggers, it doesn't stop the buffer with
trace_printk() and that data can easily be lost by being
overwritten. Have traceoff_on_warning also disable the instance
that has trace_printk() being written to it.
- Update the hist_debug file to show what function the field uses
When CONFIG_HIST_TRIGGERS_DEBUG is enabled, a hist_debug file
exists for every event. This displays the internal data of any
histogram enabled for that event. But it is lacking the function
that is called to process one of its fields. This is very useful
information that was missing when debugging histograms.
- Up the histogram stack size from 16 to 31
Stack traces can be used as keys for event histograms. Currently
the size of the stack that is stored is limited to just 16 entries.
But the storage space in the histogram is 256 bytes, meaning that
it can store up to 31 entries (plus one for the count of entries).
Instead of letting that space go to waste, up the limit from 16 to
31. This makes the keys much more useful.
- Fix permissions of per CPU file buffer_size_kb
The per CPU file of buffer_size_kb was incorrectly set to read only
in a previous cleanup. It should be writable.
- Reset "last_boot_info" if the persistent buffer is cleared
The last_boot_info shows address information of a persistent ring
buffer if it contains data from a previous boot. It is cleared when
recording starts again, but it is not cleared when the buffer is
reset. The data is useless after a reset so clear it on reset too.
Internal changes:
- A change was made to allow tracepoint callbacks to have preemption
enabled, and instead be protected by SRCU. This required some
updates to the callbacks for perf and BPF.
perf needed to disable preemption directly in its callback because
it expects preemption disabled in the later code.
BPF needed to disable migration, as its code expects to run
completely on the same CPU.
- Have irq_work wake up other CPU if current CPU is "isolated"
When there's a waiter waiting on ring buffer data and a new event
happens, an irq work is triggered to wake up that waiter. This is
noisy on isolated CPUs (running NO_HZ_FULL). Trigger an IPI to a
house keeping CPU instead.
- Use proper free of trigger_data instead of open coding it in.
- Remove redundant call of event_trigger_reset_filter()
It was called immediately in a function that was called right after
it.
- Workqueue cleanups
- Report errors if tracing_update_buffers() were to fail.
- Make the enum update workqueue generic for other parts of tracing
On boot up, a work queue is created to convert enum names into
their numbers in the trace event format files. This work queue can
also be used for other aspects of tracing that takes some time and
shouldn't be called by the init call code.
The blk_trace initialization takes a bit of time. Have the
initialization code moved to the new tracing generic work queue
function.
- Skip kprobe boot event creation call if there's no kprobes defined
on cmdline
The kprobe initialization to set up kprobes if they are defined on
the cmdline requires taking the event_mutex lock. This can be held
by other tracing code doing initialization for a long time. Since
kprobes added to the kernel command line need to be setup
immediately, as they may be tracing early initialization code, they
cannot be postponed in a work queue and must be setup in the
initcall code.
If there's no kprobe on the kernel cmdline, there's no reason to
take the mutex and slow down the boot up code waiting to get the
lock only to find out there's nothing to do. Simply exit out early
if there's no kprobes on the kernel cmdline.
If there are kprobes on the cmdline, then someone cares more about
tracing over the speed of boot up.
- Clean up the trigger code a bit
- Move code out of trace.c and into their own files
trace.c is now over 11,000 lines of code and has become more
difficult to maintain. Start splitting it up so that related code
is in their own files.
Move all the trace_printk() related code into trace_printk.c.
Move the __always_inline stack functions into trace.h.
Move the pid filtering code into a new trace_pid.c file.
- Better define the max latency and snapshot code
The latency tracers have a "max latency" buffer that is a copy of
the main buffer and gets swapped with it when a new high latency is
detected. This keeps the trace up to the highest latency around
where this max_latency buffer is never written to. It is only used
to save the last max latency trace.
A while ago a snapshot feature was added to tracefs to allow user
space to perform the same logic. It could also enable events to
trigger a "snapshot" if one of their fields hit a new high. This
was built on top of the latency max_latency buffer logic.
Because snapshots came later, they were dependent on the latency
tracers to be enabled. In reality, the latency tracers depend on
the snapshot code and not the other way around. It was just that
they came first.
Restructure the code and the kconfigs to have the latency tracers
depend on snapshot code instead. This actually simplifies the logic
a bit and allows to disable more when the latency tracers are not
defined and the snapshot code is.
- Fix a "false sharing" in the hwlat tracer code
The loop to search for latency in hardware was using a variable
that could be changed by user space for each sample. If the user
change this variable, it could cause a bus contention, and reading
that variable can show up as a large latency in the trace causing a
false positive. Read this variable at the start of the sample with
a READ_ONCE() into a local variable and keep the code from sharing
cache lines with readers.
- Fix function graph tracer static branch optimization code
When only one tracer is defined for function graph tracing, it uses
a static branch to call that tracer directly. When another tracer
is added, it goes into loop logic to call all the registered
callbacks.
The code was incorrect when going back to one tracer and never
re-enabled the static branch again to do the optimization code.

Pull ext4 updates from Ted Ts'o:
"New features and improvements for the ext4 file system
- Avoid unnecessary cache invalidation in the extent status cache
(es_cache) when adding extents to be cached in the es_cache and we
are not changing the extent tree
- Add a sysfs parameter, err_report_sec, to control how frequently to
log a warning message that file system inconsistency has been
detected (Previously we logged the warning message every 24 hours)
- Avoid unnecessary forced ordered writes when appending to a file
when delayed allocation is enabled
- Defer splitting unwritten extents to I/O completion to improve
write performance of concurrent direct I/O writes to multiple files
- Refactor and add kunit tests to the extent splitting and conversion
code paths
Various Bug Fixes:
- Fix a panic when the debugging DOUBLE_CHECK macro is defined
- Avoid using fast commit for rare and complex file system operations
to make fast commit easier to reason about. This can also avoid
some corner cases that could result in file system inconsistency if
there is a crash between the fast commit before a subsequent full
commit
- Fix memory leaks in error paths
- Fix a false positive reports caused when running stress tests using
mixed huge-page workloads caused by a race between page migration
and bitmap updates
- Fix a potential recursion into file system reclaim when evicting an
inode when fast commit is enabled
- Fix a warning caused by a potential double decrement to the dirty
clusters counter when executing FS_IOC_SHUTDOWN when running a
stress test
- Enable mballoc optimized scanning regardless whether the inode is
using indirect blocks or extent trees to map blocks"
