Pull slab updates from Vlastimil Babka: - Move the TINY_RCU kvfree_rcu() implementation from RCU to SLAB subsystem and cleanup its integration (Vlastimil Babka) Following the move of the TREE_RCU batching kvfree_rcu() implementation in 6.14, move also the simpler TINY_RCU variant. Refactor the #ifdef guards so that the simple implementation is also used with SLUB_TINY. Remove the need for RCU to recognize fake callback function pointers (__is_kvfree_rcu_offset()) when handling call_rcu() by implementing a callback that calculates the object's address from the embedded rcu_head address without knowing its offset. - Improve kmalloc cache randomization in kvmalloc (GONG Ruiqi) Due to an extra layer of function call, all kvmalloc() allocations used the same set of random caches. Thanks to moving the kvmalloc() implementation to slub.c, this is improved and randomization now works for kvmalloc. - Various improvements to debugging, testing and other cleanups (Hyesoo Yu, Lilith Gkini, Uladzislau Rezki, Matthew Wilcox, Kevin Brodsky, Ye Bin) * tag 'slab-for-6.15' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vbabka/slab: slub: Handle freelist cycle in on_freelist() mm/slab: call kmalloc_noprof() unconditionally in kmalloc_array_noprof() slab: Mark large folios for debugging purposes kunit, slub: Add test_kfree_rcu_wq_destroy use case mm, slab: cleanup slab_bug() parameters mm: slub: call WARN() when detecting a slab corruption mm: slub: Print the broken data before restoring them slab: Achieve better kmalloc caches randomization in kvmalloc slab: Adjust placement of __kvmalloc_node_noprof mm/slab: simplify SLAB_* flag handling slab: don't batch kvfree_rcu() with SLUB_TINY rcu, slab: use a regular callback function for kvfree_rcu rcu: remove trace_rcu_kvfree_callback slab, rcu: move TINY_RCU variant of kvfree_rcu() to SLAB
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
