Description of changes:
Do not call generic_file_buffered_read() directly, call generic_file_read_iter() which will check number of iov to read, and return immediately when the number of iov is zero.

Else, generic_file_buffered_read() will fall into an infinite loop, eat up all cpu resources, cause system lockup.

The huge_ptep_set_access_flags() can not make the huge pte old according
to the discussion [1], that means we will always mornitor the young state
of the hugetlb though we stopped accessing the hugetlb, as a result DAMON
will get inaccurate accessing statistics.

So changing to use set_huge_pte_at() to make the huge pte old to fix this
issue.

damon_reclaim_init() allocates a memory chunk for ctx with
damon_new_ctx().  When damon_select_ops() fails, ctx is not released,
which will lead to a memory leak.

We should release the ctx with damon_destroy_ctx() when damon_select_ops()
fails to fix the memory leak.

When user tries to create a DAMON context via the DAMON debugfs interface
with a name of an already existing context, the context directory creation
fails but a new context is created and added in the internal data
structure, due to absence of the directory creation success check.  As a
result, memory could leak and DAMON cannot be turned on.  An example test
case is as below:

    # cd /sys/kernel/debug/damon/
    # echo "off" >  monitor_on
    # echo paddr > target_ids
    # echo "abc" > mk_context
    # echo "abc" > mk_context
    # echo $$ > abc/target_ids
    # echo "on" > monitor_on  <<< fails

Return value of 'debugfs_create_dir()' is expected to be ignored in
general, but this is an exceptional case as DAMON feature is depending
on the debugfs functionality and it has the potential duplicate name
issue.  This commit therefore fixes the issue by checking the directory
creation failure and immediately return the error in the case.

commit 9e7a4d9 upstream.

Usage of spin locks was not allowed for tracing programs due to
insufficient preemption checks. The verifier does not currently prevent
LSM programs from using spin locks, but the helpers are not exposed
via bpf_lsm_func_proto.

Based on the discussion in [1], non-sleepable LSM programs should be
able to use bpf_spin_{lock, unlock}.

Sleepable LSM programs can be preempted which means that allowng spin
locks will need more work (disabling preemption and the verifier
ensuring that no sleepable helpers are called when a spin lock is held).

commit 4cf1bc1 upstream.

Similar to bpf_local_storage for sockets and inodes add local storage
for task_struct.

The life-cycle of storage is managed with the life-cycle of the
task_struct.  i.e. the storage is destroyed along with the owning task
with a callback to the bpf_task_storage_free from the task_free LSM
hook.

The BPF LSM allocates an __rcu pointer to the bpf_local_storage in
the security blob which are now stackable and can co-exist with other
LSMs.

The userspace map operations can be done by using a pid fd as a key
passed to the lookup, update and delete operations.

Because io_uring can't register other ring instances, this will remove

…and 'damos_action' values

Patch series "Extend DAMOS for Proactive LRU-lists Sorting".

Introduction
============

In short, this patchset 1) extends DAMON-based Operation Schemes (DAMOS)
for low overhead data access pattern based LRU-lists sorting, and 2)
implements a static kernel module for easy use of conservatively-tuned
version of that using the extended DAMOS capability.

Background
----------

As page-granularity access checking overhead could be significant on huge
systems, LRU lists are normally not proactively sorted but partially and
reactively sorted for special events including specific user requests,
system calls and memory pressure.  As a result, LRU lists are sometimes
not so perfectly prepared to be used as a trustworthy access pattern
source for some situations including reclamation target pages selection
under sudden memory pressure.

DAMON-based Proactive LRU-lists Sorting
---------------------------------------

Because DAMON can identify access patterns of best-effort accuracy while
inducing only user-specified range of overhead, using DAMON for Proactive
LRU-lists Sorting (PLRUS) could be helpful for this situation.  The idea
is quite simple.  Find hot pages and cold pages using DAMON, and
prioritize hot pages while deprioritizing cold pages on their LRU-lists.

This patchset extends DAMON to support such schemes by introducing a
couple of new DAMOS actions for prioritizing and deprioritizing memory
regions of specific access patterns on their LRU-lists.  In detail, this
patchset simply uses 'mark_page_accessed()' and 'deactivate_page()'
functions for prioritization and deprioritization of pages on their LRU
lists, respectively.

To make the scheme easy to use without complex tuning for common
situations, this patchset further implements a static kernel module called
'DAMON_LRU_SORT' using the extended DAMOS functionality.  It proactively
sorts LRU-lists using DAMON with conservatively chosen default
hotness/coldness thresholds and small CPU usage quota limit.  That is, the
module under its default parameters will make no harm for common situation
but provide some level of benefit for systems having clear hot/cold access
pattern under only memory pressure while consuming only limited small
portion of CPU time.

Related Works
-------------

Proactive reclamation is well known to be helpful for reducing non-optimal
reclamation target selection caused performance drops.  However, proactive
reclamation is not a best option for some cases, because it could incur
additional I/O.  For an example, it could be prohitive for systems using
storage devices that total number of writes is limited, or cloud block
storages that charges every I/O.

Some proactive reclamation approaches[1,2] induce a level of memory
pressure using memcg files or swappiness while monitoring PSI.  As
reclamation target selection is still relying on the original LRU-lists
mechanism, using DAMON-based proactive reclamation before inducing the
proactive reclamation could allow more memory saving with same level of
performance overhead, or less performance overhead with same level of
memory saving.

Evaluation
==========

In short, PLRUS achieves 10% memory PSI (some) reduction, 14% major page
faults reduction, and 3.74% speedup under memory pressure.

Setup
-----

To show the effect of PLRUS, I run PARSEC3 and SPLASH-2X benchmarks under
below variant systems and measure a few metrics including the runtime of
each workload, number of system-wide major page faults, and system-wide
memory PSI (some).

- orig: v5.18-rc4 based mm-unstable kernel + this patchset, but no DAMON scheme
        applied.
- mprs: Same to 'orig' but artificial memory pressure is induced.
- plrus: Same to 'mprs' but a radically tuned PLRUS scheme is applied to the
         entire physical address space of the system.

For the artificial memory pressure, I set 'memory.limit_in_bytes' to 75%
of the running workload's peak RSS, wait 1 second, remove the pressure by
setting it to 200% of the peak RSS, wait 10 seconds, and repeat the
procedure until the workload finishes[1].  I use zram based swap device.
The tests are automated[2].

[2] https://github.com/awslabs/damon-tests/blob/next/perf/full_once_config.sh

Radically Tuned PLRUS
---------------------

To show effect of PLRUS on the PARSEC3/SPLASH-2X workloads which runs for
no long time, we use radically tuned version of PLRUS.  The version asks
DAMON to do the proactive LRU-lists sorting as below.

1. Find any memory regions shown some accesses (approximately >=20 accesses per
   100 sampling) and prioritize pages of the regions on their LRU lists using
   up to 2% CPU time.  Under the CPU time limit, prioritize regions having
   higher access frequency and kept the access frequency longer first.

2. Find any memory regions shown no access for at least >=5 seconds and
   deprioritize pages of the rgions on their LRU lists using up to 2% CPU time.
   Under the CPU time limit, deprioritize regions that not accessed for longer
   time first.

Results
-------

I repeat the tests 25 times and calculate average of the measured numbers.
The results are as below:

    metric               orig        mprs         plrus        plrus/mprs
    runtime_seconds      190.06      292.83       281.87       0.96
    pgmajfaults          852.55      8769420.00   7525040.00   0.86
    memory_psi_some_us   106911.00   6943420.00   6220920.00   0.90

The first row is for legend.  The first cell shows the metric that the
following cells of the row shows.  Second, third, and fourth cells show
the metrics under the configs shown at the first row of the cell, and the
fifth cell shows the metric under 'plrus' divided by the metric under
'mprs'.  Second row shows the averaged runtime of the workloads in
seconds.  Third row shows the number of system-wide major page faults
while the test was ongoing.  Fourth row shows the system-wide memory
pressure stall for some processes in microseconds while the test was
ongoing.

In short, PLRUS achieves 10% memory PSI (some) reduction, 14% major page
faults reduction, and 3.74% speedup under memory pressure.  We also
confirmed the CPU usage of kdamond was 2.61% of single CPU, which is below
4% as expected.

Sequence of Patches
===================

The first and second patch cleans up DAMON debugfs interface and
DAMOS_PAGEOUT handling code of physical address space monitoring
operations implementation for easier extension of the code.

The thrid and fourth patches implement a new DAMOS action called
'lru_prio', which prioritizes pages under memory regions which have a
user-specified access pattern, and document it, respectively.  The fifth
and sixth patches implement yet another new DAMOS action called
'lru_deprio', which deprioritizes pages under memory regions which have a
user-specified access pattern, and document it, respectively.

The seventh patch implements a static kernel module called
'damon_lru_sort', which utilizes the DAMON-based proactive LRU-lists
sorting under conservatively chosen default parameter.  Finally, the
eighth patch documents 'damon_lru_sort'.

This patch (of 8):

DAMON debugfs interface assumes users will write 'damos_action' value
directly to the 'schemes' file.  This makes adding new 'damos_action' in
the middle of its definition breaks the backward compatibility of DAMON
debugfs interface, as values of some 'damos_action' could be changed.  To
mitigate the situation, this commit adds mappings between the user inputs
and 'damos_action' value and makes DAMON debugfs code uses those.

This commit adds a new DAMON-based operation scheme action called

is hence supposed to be used for rarely accessed (cold) memory regions so
that cold pages could be more likely reclaimed first under memory
pressure.  Internally, it simply calls 'lru_deactivate()'.

Using this with 'LRU_PRIO' action for hot pages, users can proactively
sort LRU lists based on the access pattern.  That is, it can make the LRU
lists somewhat more trustworthy source of access temperature.  As a
result, efficiency of LRU-lists based mechanisms including the reclamation
target selection could be improved.

paniakin-aws pushed a commit that referenced this pull request Jan 8, 2026
commit 7838a4e upstream.

When a page is freed it coalesces with a buddy into a higher order page
while possible.  When the buddy page migrate type differs, it is expected
to be updated to match the one of the page being freed.

However, only the first pageblock of the buddy page is updated, while the
rest of the pageblocks are left unchanged.

That causes warnings in later expand() and other code paths (like below),
since an inconsistency between migration type of the list containing the
page and the page-owned pageblocks migration types is introduced.

commit 6558749 upstream.

When running the Rust maple tree kunit tests with lockdep, you may trigger
a warning that looks like this:

	lib/maple_tree.c:780 suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage!

	other info that might help us debug this:

	rcu_scheduler_active = 2, debug_locks = 1
	no locks held by kunit_try_catch/344.

This is because the destructor of maple tree calls mas_find() without
taking rcu_read_lock() or the spinlock.  Doing that is actually ok in this
case since the destructor has exclusive access to the entire maple tree,
but it triggers a lockdep warning.  To fix that, take the rcu read lock.

In the future, it's possible that memory reclaim could gain a feature
where it reallocates entries in maple trees even if no user-code is
touching it.  If that feature is added, then this use of rcu read lock
would become load-bearing, so I did not make it conditional on lockdep.

We have to repeatedly take and release rcu because the destructor of T
might perform operations that sleep.

… to macb_open()

commit 99537d5 upstream.

In the non-RT kernel, local_bh_disable() merely disables preemption,
whereas it maps to an actual spin lock in the RT kernel. Consequently,
when attempting to refill RX buffers via netdev_alloc_skb() in
macb_mac_link_up(), a deadlock scenario arises as follows:

   WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected

Notably, invoking the mog_init_rings() callback upon link establishment
is unnecessary. Instead, we can exclusively call mog_init_rings() within
the ndo_open() callback. This adjustment resolves the deadlock issue.
Furthermore, since MACB_CAPS_MACB_IS_EMAC cases do not use mog_init_rings()
when opening the network interface via at91ether_open(), moving
mog_init_rings() to macb_open() also eliminates the MACB_CAPS_MACB_IS_EMAC
check.

commit f79a609 upstream.

log_max_qp in driver's default profile #2 was set to 18, but FW actually
supports 17 at the most - a situation that led to the concerning print
when the driver is loaded:
"log_max_qp value in current profile is 18, changing to HCA capabaility
limit (17)"

The expected behavior from mlx5_profile #2 is to match the maximum FW
capability in regards to log_max_qp. Thus, log_max_qp in profile #2 is
initialized to a defined static value (0xff) - which basically means that
when loading this profile, log_max_qp value  will be what the currently
installed FW supports at most.

To clear the flow table on flow table free, the following sequence
normally happens in order:

  1) gc_step work is stopped to disable any further stats/del requests.
  2) All flow table entries are set to teardown state.
  3) Run gc_step which will queue HW del work for each flow table entry.
  4) Waiting for the above del work to finish (flush).
  5) Run gc_step again, deleting all entries from the flow table.
  6) Flow table is freed.

But if a flow table entry already has pending HW stats or HW add work
step 3 will not queue HW del work (it will be skipped), step 4 will wait
for the pending add/stats to finish, and step 5 will queue HW del work
which might execute after freeing of the flow table.

To fix the above, this patch flushes the pending work, then it sets the
teardown flag to all flows in the flowtable and it forces a garbage
collector run to queue work to remove the flows from hardware, then it
flushes this new pending work and (finally) it forces another garbage
collector run to remove the entry from the software flowtable.

The root cause of the problem is that an mptcp-level (re)transmit can
race with mptcp_close() and the packet scheduler checks the subflow
state before acquiring the socket lock: we can try to (re)transmit on
an already closed ssk.

Fix the issue checking again the subflow socket status under the
subflow socket lock protection. Additionally add the missing check
for the fallback-to-tcp case.

The root cause of the problem is that an mptcp-level (re)transmit can
race with mptcp_close() and the packet scheduler checks the subflow
state before acquiring the socket lock: we can try to (re)transmit on
an already closed ssk.

Fix the issue checking again the subflow socket status under the
subflow socket lock protection. Additionally add the missing check
for the fallback-to-tcp case.

The warning in question is:

  WARN_ON_ONCE(state->common.pc == orig_pc))

... in kunwind_recover_return_address(), which is triggered when
return_to_handler() is encountered in the trace, but
ftrace_graph_ret_addr() cannot find a corresponding original return
address on the fgraph return stack.

This happens because the stacktrace code encounters an exception
boundary where the LR was not live at the time of the exception, but the
LR happens to contain return_to_handler(); either because the task
recently returned there, or due to unfortunate usage of the LR at a
scratch register. In such cases attempts to recover the return address
via ftrace_graph_ret_addr() may fail, triggering the WARN_ON_ONCE()
above and aborting the unwind (hence the stacktrace terminating after
reporting the PC at the time of the exception).

Handling unreliable LR values in these cases is likely to require some
larger rework, so for the moment avoid this problem by restoring the old
behaviour of skipping the LR at exception boundaries, which the
stacktrace code did prior to commit:

  c2c6b27 ("arm64: stacktrace: unwind exception boundaries")

This commit is effectively a partial revert, keeping the structures and
logic to explicitly identify exception boundaries while still skipping
reporting of the LR. The logic to explicitly identify exception
boundaries is still useful for general robustness and as a building
block for future support for RELIABLE_STACKTRACE.

jaywang-amazon pushed a commit that referenced this pull request Jan 10, 2026
The arm64 stacktrace code has a few error conditions where a
WARN_ON_ONCE() is triggered before the stacktrace is terminated and an
error is returned to the caller. The conditions shouldn't be triggered
when unwinding the current task, but it is possible to trigger these
when unwinding another task which is not blocked, as the stack of that
task is concurrently modified. Kent reports that these warnings can be
triggered while running filesystem tests on bcachefs, which calls the
stacktrace code directly.

To produce a meaningful stacktrace of another task, the task in question
should be blocked, but the stacktrace code is expected to be robust to
cases where it is not blocked. Note that this is purely about not
unuduly scaring the user and/or crashing the kernel; stacktraces in such
cases are meaningless and may leak kernel secrets from the stack of the
task being unwound.

Ideally we'd pin the task in a blocked state during the unwind, as we do
for /proc/${PID}/wchan since commit:

  42a20f8 ("sched: Add wrapper for get_wchan() to keep task blocked")

... but a bunch of places don't do that, notably /proc/${PID}/stack,
where we don't pin the task in a blocked state, but do restrict the
output to privileged users since commit:

  f8a00ce ("proc: restrict kernel stack dumps to root")

... and so it's possible to trigger these warnings accidentally, e.g. by
reading /proc/*/stack (as root):

|     while true; do cat /proc/*/stack > /dev/null 2>&1; done &

Fix this by only warning when unwinding the current task. When unwinding
another task the error conditions will be handled by returning an error
without producing a warning.

The two warnings in kunwind_next_frame_record_meta() were added recently
as part of commit:

  c2c6b27 ("arm64: stacktrace: unwind exception boundaries")

The warning when recovering the fgraph return address has changed form
many times, but was originally introduced back in commit:

  9f41631 ("arm64: fix unwind_frame() for filtered out fn for function graph tracing")

[ Upstream commit 7838a4e ]

When a page is freed it coalesces with a buddy into a higher order page
while possible.  When the buddy page migrate type differs, it is expected
to be updated to match the one of the page being freed.

However, only the first pageblock of the buddy page is updated, while the
rest of the pageblocks are left unchanged.

That causes warnings in later expand() and other code paths (like below),
since an inconsistency between migration type of the list containing the
page and the page-owned pageblocks migration types is introduced.

When using perf record with the `--overwrite` option, a segmentation fault
occurs if an event fails to open. For example:

  perf record -e cycles-ct -F 1000 -a --overwrite
  Error:
  cycles-ct:H: PMU Hardware doesn't support sampling/overflow-interrupts. Try 'perf stat'

The --overwrite option implies --tail-synthesize, which collects non-sample
events reflecting the system status when recording finishes. However, when
evsel opening fails (e.g., unsupported event 'cycles-ct'), session->evlist
is not initialized and remains NULL. The code unconditionally calls
record__synthesize() in the error path, which iterates through the NULL
evlist pointer and causes a segfault.

To fix it, move the record__synthesize() call inside the error check block, so
it's only called when there was no error during recording, ensuring that evlist
is properly initialized.

Fixes: 4ea648a ("perf record: Add --tail-synthesize option")

The IPv4 code path in __ip_vs_get_out_rt() calls dst_link_failure()
without ensuring skb->dev is set, leading to a NULL pointer dereference
in fib_compute_spec_dst() when ipv4_link_failure() attempts to send
ICMP destination unreachable messages.

The issue emerged after commit ed0de45 ("ipv4: recompile ip options
in ipv4_link_failure") started calling __ip_options_compile() from
ipv4_link_failure(). This code path eventually calls fib_compute_spec_dst()
which dereferences skb->dev. An attempt was made to fix the NULL skb->dev
dereference in commit 0113d9c ("ipv4: fix null-deref in
ipv4_link_failure"), but it only addressed the immediate dev_net(skb->dev)
dereference by using a fallback device. The fix was incomplete because
fib_compute_spec_dst() later in the call chain still accesses skb->dev
directly, which remains NULL when IPVS calls dst_link_failure().

The crash occurs when:
1. IPVS processes a packet in NAT mode with a misconfigured destination
2. Route lookup fails in __ip_vs_get_out_rt() before establishing a route
3. The error path calls dst_link_failure(skb) with skb->dev == NULL
4. ipv4_link_failure() → ipv4_send_dest_unreach() →
   __ip_options_compile() → fib_compute_spec_dst()
5. fib_compute_spec_dst() dereferences NULL skb->dev

Apply the same fix used for IPv6 in commit 326bf17 ("ipvs: fix
ipv6 route unreach panic"): set skb->dev from skb_dst(skb)->dev before
calling dst_link_failure().

The packet scheduler could attempt a reinjection after receiving an
MP_FAIL and before the infinite map has been transmitted, causing a
deadlock since MPTCP needs to do the reinjection atomically from WRT
fallback.

Address the issue explicitly avoiding the reinjection in the critical
scenario. Note that this is the only fallback critical section that
could potentially send packets and hit the double-lock.

… to macb_open()

commit 99537d5 upstream.

In the non-RT kernel, local_bh_disable() merely disables preemption,
whereas it maps to an actual spin lock in the RT kernel. Consequently,
when attempting to refill RX buffers via netdev_alloc_skb() in
macb_mac_link_up(), a deadlock scenario arises as follows:

Notably, invoking the mog_init_rings() callback upon link establishment
is unnecessary. Instead, we can exclusively call mog_init_rings() within
the ndo_open() callback. This adjustment resolves the deadlock issue.
Furthermore, since MACB_CAPS_MACB_IS_EMAC cases do not use mog_init_rings()
when opening the network interface via at91ether_open(), moving
mog_init_rings() to macb_open() also eliminates the MACB_CAPS_MACB_IS_EMAC
check.

The root cause is deadlock among four locks as below:

 - shrink_one
  - evict
   - f2fs_evict_inode
    - sb_start_intwrite			--- Lock B

- iput
 - evict
  - f2fs_evict_inode
   - sb_start_intwrite			--- Lock B
   - f2fs_truncate
    - f2fs_truncate_blocks
     - f2fs_do_truncate_blocks
      - f2fs_lock_op			--- Lock C

ioctl
- f2fs_ioc_commit_atomic_write
 - f2fs_lock_op				--- Lock C
  - __f2fs_commit_atomic_write
   - __replace_atomic_write_block
    - f2fs_get_dnode_of_data
     - __get_node_folio
      - f2fs_check_nid_range
       - f2fs_handle_error
        - f2fs_record_errors
         - f2fs_down_write		--- Lock D

open
- do_open
 - do_truncate
  - security_inode_need_killpriv
   - f2fs_getxattr
    - lookup_all_xattrs
     - f2fs_handle_error
      - f2fs_record_errors
       - f2fs_down_write		--- Lock D
        - f2fs_commit_super
         - read_mapping_folio
          - filemap_alloc_folio_noprof
           - prepare_alloc_pages
            - fs_reclaim_acquire	--- Lock A

In order to avoid such deadlock, we need to avoid grabbing sb_lock in
f2fs_handle_error(), so, let's use asynchronous method instead:
- remove f2fs_handle_error() implementation
- rename f2fs_handle_error_async() to f2fs_handle_error()
- spread f2fs_handle_error()

When using perf record with the `--overwrite` option, a segmentation fault
occurs if an event fails to open. For example:

  perf record -e cycles-ct -F 1000 -a --overwrite
  Error:
  cycles-ct:H: PMU Hardware doesn't support sampling/overflow-interrupts. Try 'perf stat'

The --overwrite option implies --tail-synthesize, which collects non-sample
events reflecting the system status when recording finishes. However, when
evsel opening fails (e.g., unsupported event 'cycles-ct'), session->evlist
is not initialized and remains NULL. The code unconditionally calls
record__synthesize() in the error path, which iterates through the NULL
evlist pointer and causes a segfault.

To fix it, move the record__synthesize() call inside the error check block, so
it's only called when there was no error during recording, ensuring that evlist
is properly initialized.

[ Upstream commit ad891bb ]

The IPv4 code path in __ip_vs_get_out_rt() calls dst_link_failure()
without ensuring skb->dev is set, leading to a NULL pointer dereference
in fib_compute_spec_dst() when ipv4_link_failure() attempts to send
ICMP destination unreachable messages.

The issue emerged after commit ed0de45 ("ipv4: recompile ip options
in ipv4_link_failure") started calling __ip_options_compile() from
ipv4_link_failure(). This code path eventually calls fib_compute_spec_dst()
which dereferences skb->dev. An attempt was made to fix the NULL skb->dev
dereference in commit 0113d9c ("ipv4: fix null-deref in
ipv4_link_failure"), but it only addressed the immediate dev_net(skb->dev)
dereference by using a fallback device. The fix was incomplete because
fib_compute_spec_dst() later in the call chain still accesses skb->dev
directly, which remains NULL when IPVS calls dst_link_failure().

The crash occurs when:
1. IPVS processes a packet in NAT mode with a misconfigured destination
2. Route lookup fails in __ip_vs_get_out_rt() before establishing a route
3. The error path calls dst_link_failure(skb) with skb->dev == NULL
4. ipv4_link_failure() → ipv4_send_dest_unreach() →
   __ip_options_compile() → fib_compute_spec_dst()
5. fib_compute_spec_dst() dereferences NULL skb->dev

Apply the same fix used for IPv6 in commit 326bf17 ("ipvs: fix
ipv6 route unreach panic"): set skb->dev from skb_dst(skb)->dev before
calling dst_link_failure().

… to macb_open()

commit 99537d5 upstream.

In the non-RT kernel, local_bh_disable() merely disables preemption,
whereas it maps to an actual spin lock in the RT kernel. Consequently,
when attempting to refill RX buffers via netdev_alloc_skb() in
macb_mac_link_up(), a deadlock scenario arises as follows:

Notably, invoking the mog_init_rings() callback upon link establishment
is unnecessary. Instead, we can exclusively call mog_init_rings() within
the ndo_open() callback. This adjustment resolves the deadlock issue.
Furthermore, since MACB_CAPS_MACB_IS_EMAC cases do not use mog_init_rings()
when opening the network interface via at91ether_open(), moving
mog_init_rings() to macb_open() also eliminates the MACB_CAPS_MACB_IS_EMAC
check.

The packet scheduler could attempt a reinjection after receiving an
MP_FAIL and before the infinite map has been transmitted, causing a
deadlock since MPTCP needs to do the reinjection atomically from WRT
fallback.

Address the issue explicitly avoiding the reinjection in the critical
scenario. Note that this is the only fallback critical section that
could potentially send packets and hit the double-lock.

In btrfs_read_locked_inode() we are calling btrfs_init_file_extent_tree()
while holding a path with a read locked leaf from a subvolume tree, and
btrfs_init_file_extent_tree() may do a GFP_KERNEL allocation, which can

This can create a circular lock dependency which lockdep warns about with

This is because:

1) The fsync task is holding an inode's delayed node mutex (for a
   directory) while calling __btrfs_update_delayed_inode() and that needs
   to do a search on the subvolume's btree (therefore read lock some
   extent buffers);

2) The lookup task, at btrfs_lookup(), triggered reclaim with the
   GFP_KERNEL allocation done by btrfs_init_file_extent_tree() while
   holding a read lock on a subvolume leaf;

3) The reclaim triggered kswapd which is doing inode eviction for the
   directory inode the fsync task is using as an argument to
   btrfs_commit_inode_delayed_inode() - but in that call chain we are
   trying to read lock the same leaf that the lookup task is holding
   while calling btrfs_init_file_extent_tree() and doing the GFP_KERNEL
   allocation.

Fix this by calling btrfs_init_file_extent_tree() after we don't need the
path anymore and release it in btrfs_read_locked_inode().

The GPIO controller is configured as non-sleeping but it uses generic
pinctrl helpers which use a mutex for synchronization.

This can cause the following lockdep splat with shared GPIOs enabled on
boards which have multiple devices using the same GPIO:

…te in qfq_reset

`qfq_class->leaf_qdisc->q.qlen > 0` does not imply that the class
itself is active.

Two qfq_class objects may point to the same leaf_qdisc. This happens
when:

1. one QFQ qdisc is attached to the dev as the root qdisc, and

2. another QFQ qdisc is temporarily referenced (e.g., via qdisc_get()
/ qdisc_put()) and is pending to be destroyed, as in function
tc_new_tfilter.

When packets are enqueued through the root QFQ qdisc, the shared
leaf_qdisc->q.qlen increases. At the same time, the second QFQ
qdisc triggers qdisc_put and qdisc_destroy: the qdisc enters
qfq_reset() with its own q->q.qlen == 0, but its class's leaf
qdisc->q.qlen > 0. Therefore, the qfq_reset would wrongly deactivate
an inactive aggregate and trigger a null-deref in qfq_deactivate_agg:

The warning in question is:

  WARN_ON_ONCE(state->common.pc == orig_pc))

... in kunwind_recover_return_address(), which is triggered when
return_to_handler() is encountered in the trace, but
ftrace_graph_ret_addr() cannot find a corresponding original return
address on the fgraph return stack.

This happens because the stacktrace code encounters an exception
boundary where the LR was not live at the time of the exception, but the
LR happens to contain return_to_handler(); either because the task
recently returned there, or due to unfortunate usage of the LR at a
scratch register. In such cases attempts to recover the return address
via ftrace_graph_ret_addr() may fail, triggering the WARN_ON_ONCE()
above and aborting the unwind (hence the stacktrace terminating after
reporting the PC at the time of the exception).

Handling unreliable LR values in these cases is likely to require some
larger rework, so for the moment avoid this problem by restoring the old
behaviour of skipping the LR at exception boundaries, which the
stacktrace code did prior to commit:

  c2c6b27 ("arm64: stacktrace: unwind exception boundaries")

This commit is effectively a partial revert, keeping the structures and
logic to explicitly identify exception boundaries while still skipping
reporting of the LR. The logic to explicitly identify exception
boundaries is still useful for general robustness and as a building
block for future support for RELIABLE_STACKTRACE.

jaywang-amazon pushed a commit that referenced this pull request Jan 12, 2026
The arm64 stacktrace code has a few error conditions where a
WARN_ON_ONCE() is triggered before the stacktrace is terminated and an
error is returned to the caller. The conditions shouldn't be triggered
when unwinding the current task, but it is possible to trigger these
when unwinding another task which is not blocked, as the stack of that
task is concurrently modified. Kent reports that these warnings can be
triggered while running filesystem tests on bcachefs, which calls the
stacktrace code directly.

To produce a meaningful stacktrace of another task, the task in question
should be blocked, but the stacktrace code is expected to be robust to
cases where it is not blocked. Note that this is purely about not
unuduly scaring the user and/or crashing the kernel; stacktraces in such
cases are meaningless and may leak kernel secrets from the stack of the
task being unwound.

Ideally we'd pin the task in a blocked state during the unwind, as we do
for /proc/${PID}/wchan since commit:

  42a20f8 ("sched: Add wrapper for get_wchan() to keep task blocked")

... but a bunch of places don't do that, notably /proc/${PID}/stack,
where we don't pin the task in a blocked state, but do restrict the
output to privileged users since commit:

  f8a00ce ("proc: restrict kernel stack dumps to root")

... and so it's possible to trigger these warnings accidentally, e.g. by
reading /proc/*/stack (as root):

| for n in $(seq 1 10); do
|     while true; do cat /proc/*/stack > /dev/null 2>&1; done &

Fix this by only warning when unwinding the current task. When unwinding
another task the error conditions will be handled by returning an error
without producing a warning.

The two warnings in kunwind_next_frame_record_meta() were added recently
as part of commit:

  c2c6b27 ("arm64: stacktrace: unwind exception boundaries")

The warning when recovering the fgraph return address has changed form
many times, but was originally introduced back in commit:

  9f41631 ("arm64: fix unwind_frame() for filtered out fn for function graph tracing")
