Pull non-MM updates from Andrew Morton: - "panic: sys_info: Refactor and fix a potential issue" (Andy Shevchenko) fixes a build issue and does some cleanup in ib/sys_info.c - "Implement mul_u64_u64_div_u64_roundup()" (David Laight) enhances the 64-bit math code on behalf of a PWM driver and beefs up the test module for these library functions - "scripts/gdb/symbols: make BPF debug info available to GDB" (Ilya Leoshkevich) makes BPF symbol names, sizes, and line numbers available to the GDB debugger - "Enable hung_task and lockup cases to dump system info on demand" (Feng Tang) adds a sysctl which can be used to cause additional info dumping when the hung-task and lockup detectors fire - "lib/base64: add generic encoder/decoder, migrate users" (Kuan-Wei Chiu) adds a general base64 encoder/decoder to lib/ and migrates several users away from their private implementations - "rbree: inline rb_first() and rb_last()" (Eric Dumazet) makes TCP a little faster - "liveupdate: Rework KHO for in-kernel users" (Pasha Tatashin) reworks the KEXEC Handover interfaces in preparation for Live Update Orchestrator (LUO), and possibly for other future clients - "kho: simplify state machine and enable dynamic updates" (Pasha Tatashin) increases the flexibility of KEXEC Handover. Also preparation for LUO - "Live Update Orchestrator" (Pasha Tatashin) is a major new feature targeted at cloud environments. Quoting the cover letter: This series introduces the Live Update Orchestrator, a kernel subsystem designed to facilitate live kernel updates using a kexec-based reboot. This capability is critical for cloud environments, allowing hypervisors to be updated with minimal downtime for running virtual machines. LUO achieves this by preserving the state of selected resources, such as memory, devices and their dependencies, across the kernel transition. As a key feature, this series includes support for preserving memfd file descriptors, which allows critical in-memory data, such as guest RAM or any other large memory region, to be maintained in RAM across the kexec reboot. Mike Rappaport merits a mention here, for his extensive review and testing work. - "kexec: reorganize kexec and kdump sysfs" (Sourabh Jain) moves the kexec and kdump sysfs entries from /sys/kernel/ to /sys/kernel/kexec/ and adds back-compatibility symlinks which can hopefully be removed one day - "kho: fixes for vmalloc restoration" (Mike Rapoport) fixes a BUG which was being hit during KHO restoration of vmalloc() regions * tag 'mm-nonmm-stable-2025-12-06-11-14' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm: (139 commits) calibrate: update header inclusion Reinstate "resource: avoid unnecessary lookups in find_next_iomem_res()" vmcoreinfo: track and log recoverable hardware errors kho: fix restoring of contiguous ranges of order-0 pages kho: kho_restore_vmalloc: fix initialization of pages array MAINTAINERS: TPM DEVICE DRIVER: update the W-tag init: replace simple_strtoul with kstrtoul to improve lpj_setup KHO: fix boot failure due to kmemleak access to non-PRESENT pages Documentation/ABI: new kexec and kdump sysfs interface Documentation/ABI: mark old kexec sysfs deprecated kexec: move sysfs entries to /sys/kernel/kexec test_kho: always print restore status kho: free chunks using free_page() instead of kfree() selftests/liveupdate: add kexec test for multiple and empty sessions selftests/liveupdate: add simple kexec-based selftest for LUO selftests/liveupdate: add userspace API selftests docs: add documentation for memfd preservation via LUO mm: memfd_luo: allow preserving memfd liveupdate: luo_file: add private argument to store runtime state mm: shmem: export some functions to internal.h ...

2025-11-20T21:43:58Z

Assert that we observe guard regions appearing in /proc/$pid/smaps as expected, and when split/merge is performed too (with expected sticky behaviour). Also add handling for file systems which don't sanely handle mmap() VMA merging so we don't incorrectly encounter a test failure in this situation.

selftests/mm: skip soft-dirty tests when CONFIG_MEM_SOFT_DIRTY is disabled

2025-09-23T21:14:16Z

The madv_populate and soft-dirty kselftests currently fail on systems where CONFIG_MEM_SOFT_DIRTY is disabled. Introduce a new helper softdirty_supported() into vm_util.c/h to ensure tests are properly skipped when the feature is not enabled.

selftests/mm: put general ksm operation into vm_util

2025-09-13T23:55:13Z

Patch series "test that rmap behaves as expected", v4. As David suggested, currently we don't have a high level test case to verify the behavior of rmap. This patch set introduce the verification on rmap by migration. Patch 1 is a preparation to move ksm related operations into vm_util. Patch 2 is the new test case for rmap. Currently it covers following four scenarios: * anonymous page * shmem page * pagecache page * ksm page This patch (of 2): There are some general ksm operations could be used by other related test cases. Put them into vm_util for common use. This is a preparation patch for later use.

selftests/mm: reimplement is_backed_by_thp() with more precise check

2025-09-13T23:55:12Z

and rename it to is_backed_by_folio(). is_backed_by_folio() checks if the given vaddr is backed a folio with a given order. It does so by: 1. getting the pfn of the vaddr; 2. checking kpageflags of the pfn; if order is greater than 0: 3. checking kpageflags of the head pfn; 4. checking kpageflags of all tail pfns. pmd_order is added to split_huge_page_test.c and replaces max_order.

2025-09-13T23:55:06Z

The function already has 2 uses and will have a 3rd one in prctl selftests. The pagesize argument is added into the function, as it's not a global variable anymore. No functional change intended with this patch.

mm/selftests: fix split_huge_page_test failure on systems with 64KB page size

2025-09-13T23:55:03Z

The split_huge_page_test fails on systems with a 64KB base page size. This is because the order of a 2MB huge page is different: On 64KB systems, the order is 5. On 4KB systems, it's 9. The test currently assumes a maximum huge page order of 9, which is only valid for 4KB base page systems. On systems with 64KB pages, attempting to split huge pages beyond their actual order (5) causes the test to fail. In this patch, we calculate the huge page order based on the system's base page size. With this change, the tests now run successfully on both 64KB and 4KB page size systems.

selftests/mm: fix FORCE_READ to read input value correctly

2025-08-28T05:45:42Z

FORCE_READ() converts input value x to its pointer type then reads from address x. This is wrong. If x is a non-pointer, it would be caught it easily. But all FORCE_READ() callers are trying to read from a pointer and FORCE_READ() basically reads a pointer to a pointer instead of the original typed pointer. Almost no access violation was found, except the one from split_huge_page_test. Fix it by implementing a simplified READ_ONCE() instead.
