The document describes NUMA memory policy and as it is a part of the Linux
documentation it's obvious that this is Linux memory policy. Besides,
"Linux memory policy" may refer to other policies, e.g. memory hotplug
policy, and using term NUMA makes the documentation less ambiguous.

either input from stdin, which it treats as a single file or if started
without arguments it scans the full kernel tree.
It checks whether the license expression syntax is correct and also
validates whether the license identifiers used in the expressions are
available in the LICENSES files.

path Check path or file. If not given full git tree scan.
For stdin use "-"

It scans by default the first 15 lines for a SPDX identifier where the

understanding the nature of workloads (CPU or IO bound) that are
running on a machine. This adds the kernel facility and userspace
changes needed to show this information in 'perf script' and 'perf

* Use the resolved variable names from objdump disassembled lines
to make them more compact, just like was already done for some

* Remove old error messages about things that unlikely to be the
root cause in modern systems (Andi Kleen)
* Enable 1ms interval for printing event counters values in

However, these new commands (standardized in ACPI 6.2) communicate
the "Device Locked" status on the label-storage-read command, and
the driver was missing the indication.
Reading from locked persistent memory is similar to reading
unmapped PCI memory space, returns all 1's.
- Unit test infrastructure is added to regression test the "Device
Locked" detection failure.
- A build fix is included to allow the "of_pmem" driver to be built
as a module and translate an Open Firmware described device to its

mm/filemap.c: fix NULL pointer in page_cache_tree_insert()
f2fs specifies the __GFP_ZERO flag for allocating some of its pages.
Unfortunately, the page cache also uses the mapping's GFP flags for
allocating radix tree nodes. It always masked off the __GFP_HIGHMEM
flag, and masks off __GFP_ZERO in some paths, but not all. That causes
radix tree nodes to be allocated with a NULL list_head, which causes
backtraces like:
The __GFP_DMA and __GFP_DMA32 flags would also be able to sneak through
if they are ever used. Fix them all by using GFP_RECLAIM_MASK at the
innermost location, and remove it from earlier in the callchain.

autofs: mount point create should honour passed in mode
The autofs file system mkdir inode operation blindly sets the created
directory mode to S_IFDIR | 0555, ingoring the passed in mode, which can
cause selinux dac_override denials.
But the function also checks if the caller is the daemon (as no-one else
should be able to do anything here) so there's no point in not honouring
the passed in mode, allowing the daemon to set appropriate mode when
required.

The idea behind using kernel@pengutronix.de (i.e. the mail alias for the

explicit by adding the alias as reviewer and use the personal address

rapidio: fix rio_dma_transfer error handling
Some of the mport_dma_req structure members were initialized late
inside the do_dma_request() function, just before submitting the
request to the dma engine. But we have some error branches before
that. In case of such an error, the code would return on the error
path and trigger the calling of dma_req_free() with a req structure
which is not completely initialized. This causes a NULL pointer
dereference in dma_req_free().
This patch fixes these error branches by making sure that all
necessary mport_dma_req structure members are initialized in
rio_dma_transfer() immediately after the request structure gets
allocated.

My testing for the latest kernel supporting thp migration showed an
infinite loop in offlining the memory block that is filled with shmem
thps. We can get out of the loop with a signal, but kernel should return
with failure in this case.
What happens in the loop is that scan_movable_pages() repeats returning
the same pfn without any progress. That's because page migration always
fails for shmem thps.
In memory offline code, memory blocks containing unmovable pages should be
prevented from being offline targets by has_unmovable_pages() inside
start_isolate_page_range(). So it's possible to change migratability for
non-anonymous thps to avoid the issue, but it introduces more complex and
thp-specific handling in migration code, so it might not good.
So this patch is suggesting to fix the issue by enabling thp migration for
shmem thp. Both of anon/shmem thp are migratable so we don't need
precheck about the type of thps.

lock_page_memcg()/unlock_page_memcg() use spin_lock_irqsave/restore() if
the page's memcg is undergoing move accounting, which occurs when a
process leaves its memcg for a new one that has
memory.move_charge_at_immigrate set.
unlocked_inode_to_wb_begin,end() use spin_lock_irq/spin_unlock_irq() if
the given inode is switching writeback domains. Switches occur when
enough writes are issued from a new domain.
This existing pattern is thus suspicious:
lock_page_memcg(page);
unlocked_inode_to_wb_begin(inode, &locked);
...
unlocked_inode_to_wb_end(inode, locked);
unlock_page_memcg(page);
If both inode switch and process memcg migration are both in-flight then
unlocked_inode_to_wb_end() will unconditionally enable interrupts while
still holding the lock_page_memcg() irq spinlock. This suggests the
possibility of deadlock if an interrupt occurs before unlock_page_memcg().
Due to configuration limitations this deadlock is not currently possible
because we don't mix cgroup writeback (a cgroupv2 feature) and
memory.move_charge_at_immigrate (a cgroupv1 feature).
If the kernel is hacked to always claim inode switching and memcg
moving_account, then this script triggers lockup in less than a minute:
cd /mnt/cgroup/memory
mkdir a b
echo 1 > a/memory.move_charge_at_immigrate
echo 1 > b/memory.move_charge_at_immigrate
(
echo $BASHPID > a/cgroup.procs
while true; do
dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/big bs=1M count=256
done
) &
while true; do
sync
done &
sleep 1h &
SLEEP=$!
while true; do
echo $SLEEP > a/cgroup.procs
echo $SLEEP > b/cgroup.procs
done
The deadlock does not seem possible, so it's debatable if there's any
reason to modify the kernel. I suggest we should to prevent future
surprises. And Wang Long said "this deadlock occurs three times in our
environment", so there's more reason to apply this, even to stable.

mm, pagemap: fix swap offset value for PMD migration entry
The swap offset reported by /proc/<pid>/pagemap may be not correct for
PMD migration entries. If addr passed into pagemap_pmd_range() isn't
aligned with PMD start address, the swap offset reported doesn't
reflect this. And in the loop to report information of each sub-page,
the swap offset isn't increased accordingly as that for PFN.
This may happen after opening /proc/<pid>/pagemap and seeking to a page
whose address doesn't align with a PMD start address. I have verified
this with a simple test program.
BTW: migration swap entries have PFN information, do we need to restrict
whether to show them?

mm: fix do_pages_move status handling
Li Wang has reported that LTP move_pages04 test fails with the current
tree:
LTP move_pages04:
TFAIL : move_pages04.c:143: status[1] is EPERM, expected EFAULT
The test allocates an array of two pages, one is present while the other
is not (resp. backed by zero page) and it expects EFAULT for the second
page as the man page suggests. We are reporting EPERM which doesn't make
any sense and this is a result of a bug from cf5f16b23ec9 ("mm: unclutter
THP migration").
do_pages_move tries to handle as many pages in one batch as possible so we
queue all pages with the same node target together and that corresponds to
[start, i] range which is then used to update status array.
add_page_for_migration will correctly notice the zero (resp. !present)
page and returns with EFAULT which gets written to the status. But if
this is the last page in the array we do not update start and so the last
store_status after the loop will overwrite the range of the last batch
with NUMA_NO_NODE (which corresponds to EPERM).
Fix this by simply bailing out from the last flush if the pagelist is
empty as there is clearly nothing more to do.

One of the classes of kernel stack content leaks[1] is exposing the
contents of prior heap or stack contents when a new process stack is
allocated. Normally, those stacks are not zeroed, and the old contents
remain in place. In the face of stack content exposure flaws, those
contents can leak to userspace.
Fixing this will make the kernel no longer vulnerable to these flaws, as
the stack will be wiped each time a stack is assigned to a new process.
There's not a meaningful change in runtime performance; it almost looks
like it provides a benefit.
It continues to look like it's faster, though the deviation is rather
wide, but I'm not sure what I could do that would be less noisy. I'm
open to ideas!

Trying to create a socket, for example using the af_unix command from
xfstests will cause :
BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 00000000 00000040
Since no one uses or depends on being able to create unix domains sockets
on a cifs share the easiest fix to stop this vulnerability is to simply
not allow creation of any other special files than char or block devices
when sfu is used.

bg is deleted a race window emerges between removal of that bg and the
subsequent invocation of cleanup_ref_head. This can result in cache being null
and either a null pointer dereference or assertion failure.
To fix this, introduce a new flag "is_system" to head_ref structs,
which is populated at insertion time. This allows to decouple the
querying for the spaceinfo from querying the possibly deleted bg.

afs: Fix server record deletion
AFS server records get removed from the net->fs_servers tree when
they're deleted, but not from the net->fs_addresses{4,6} lists, which
can lead to an oops in afs_find_server() when a server record has been
removed, for instance during rmmod.
Fix this by deleting the record from the by-address lists before posting
it for RCU destruction.
The reason this hasn't been noticed before is that the fileserver keeps
probing the local cache manager, thereby keeping the service record
alive, so the oops would only happen when a fileserver eventually gets
bored and stops pinging or if the module gets rmmod'd and a call comes
in from the fileserver during the window between the server records
being destroyed and the socket being closed.

Some of that is only a matter with fault injection (broken handling of
