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 ...

selftests: complete kselftest include centralization

This follow-up patch completes centralization of kselftest.h and ksefltest_harness.h includes in remaining seltests files, replacing all relative paths with a non-relative paths using shared -I include path in lib.mk Tested with gcc-13.3 and clang-18.1, and cross-compiled successfully on riscv, arm64, x86_64 and powerpc arch.

selftests/x86: Update the negative vsyscall tests to expect a #GP

2025-11-18T18:38:26Z

Some of the vsyscall selftests expect a #PF when vsyscalls are disabled. However, with LASS enabled, an invalid access results in a SIGSEGV due to a #GP instead of a #PF. One such negative test fails because it is expecting X86_PF_INSTR to be set. Update the failing test to expect either a #GP or a #PF. Also, update the printed messages to show the trap number (denoting the type of fault) instead of assuming a #PF.

selftests/x86: Consolidate redundant signal helper functions

2025-02-26T12:05:28Z

The x86 selftests frequently register and clean up signal handlers, but the sethandler() and clearhandler() functions have been redundantly copied across multiple .c files. Move these functions to helpers.h to enable reuse across tests, eliminating around 250 lines of duplicate code. Converge the error handling by using ksft_exit_fail_msg(), which is functionally equivalent with err() within the selftest framework. This change is a prerequisite for the upcoming xstate selftest, which requires signal handling for registering and cleaning up handlers. Signed-off-by: Chang S.

selftests/x86: fix printk warnings reported by clang

selftests/x86: remove (or use) unused variables and functions

2024-07-11T17:23:55Z

When building with clang, via: make LLVM=1 -C tools/testing/selftests ...quite a few functions are variables are generating "unused" warnings. Fix the warnings by deleting the unused items. One item, the "nerrs" variable in vsdo_restorer.c's main(), is unused but probably wants to be returned from main(), as a non-zero result. That result is also unused right now, so another option would be to delete it entirely, but this way, main() also gets fixed. It was missing a return value.

selftests: x86: test_vsyscall: conform test to TAP format output

2024-05-06T19:57:19Z

Conform the layout, informational and status messages to TAP. No functional change is intended other than the layout of output messages. Add more logic code to skip the tests if particular configuration isn't available to make sure that either we skip each test or mark it pass/fail.

selftests: x86: test_vsyscall: reorder code to reduce #ifdef blocks

2024-05-06T19:57:19Z

There are multiple #ifdef blocks inside functions where they return just 0 if #ifdef is false. This makes number of tests counting difficult. Move those functions inside one #ifdef block and move all of them together. This is preparatory patch for next patch to convert this into TAP format. So in this patch, we are just moving functions around without any changes. With and without this patch, the output of this patch is same.
