less related to chips in a wider family:
- SpacemiT Key Stone K3 is an 8-core risc-v chip, and the first
widely available RVA23 implementation. Note that this is entirely
unrelated with the similarly named Texas Instruments K3 chip family
that follwed the TI Keystone2 SoC.
- The Realtek Kent family of SoCs contains three chip models
rtd1501s, rtd1861b and rtd1920s, and is related to their earlier
Set-top-box and NAS products such as rtd1619, but is built on newer
Arm Cortex-A78 cores.
- The Qualcomm Milos family includes the Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 (SM7635)
mobile phone SoC built around Armv9 Kryo cores of the Arm
Cortex-A720 generation. This one is used in the Fairphone Gen 6
- Qualcomm Kaanapali is a new SoC based around eight high performance
Oryon CPU cores
- NXP i.MX8QP and i.MX952 are both feature reduced versions of chips
we already support, i.e. the i.MX8QM and i.MX952, with fewer CPU
cores and I/O interfaces.

1) Fix net-next-only use-after-free bug in nf_tables rbtree set:
Expired elements cannot be released right away after unlink anymore
because there is no guarantee that the binary-search blob is going to
be updated. Spotted by syzkaller.
2) Fix esoteric bug in nf_queue with udp fraglist gro, broken since

4) Use dedicated slab for flowtable entries, currently the -512 cache
is used, which is wasteful. From Qingfang Deng.
5) Recent net-next update extended existing test for ip6ip6 tunnels, add
the required /config entry. Test still passed by accident because the
previous tests network setup gets re-used, so also update the test so
it will fail in case the ip6ip6 tunnel interface cannot be added.
6) Fix 'nft get element mytable myset { 1.2.3.4 }' on big endian
platforms, this was broken since code was added in v5.1.
7) Fix nf_tables counter reset support on 32bit platforms, where counter
reset may cause huge values to appear due to wraparound.
Broken since reset feature was added in v6.11. From Anders Grahn.
8-11) update nf_tables rbtree set type to detect partial
operlaps. This will eventually speed up nftables userspace: at this
time userspace does a netlink dump of the set content which slows down
incremental updates on interval sets. From Pablo Neira Ayuso.

x86: keep legacy generated vdso files around in .gitignore file
Commit 93d73005bff4 ("x86/entry/vdso: Rename vdso_image_* to

which is certainly not incorrect.
However, while adding new generated names is obviously the right thing
to do, you should *not* immediately remove the old filenames from the
.gitignore file when things move around or get renamed, because people
still have those old generated files in their build trees - and they
haven't suddenly become valid files to commit to the repository just
because they were moved or renamed.
While it's mostly just a slight visual nuisance for 'git status' that
can be fixed up with a clean build tree, it can become more serious than
that: see for example commit 04a3389b3535 ("Remove stale generated
'genheaders' file").
That commit removed up a stale generated file that had been carelessly
committed by a kernel developer because it wasn't properly ignored any
more and thus showed up as a new file in their tree.

2) Extend nbcon support to non-extended (basic) consoles using the same
infrastructure.
The initial discussion about it appeared a while ago in [1], in order to
solve Mike's HARDIRQ-safe -> HARDIRQ-unsafe lock order warning, and the root
cause is that some hosts were calling IRQ unsafe locks from inside console
lock.
At that time, we didn't have the CON_NBCON_ATOMIC_UNSAFE yet. John
kindly implemented CON_NBCON_ATOMIC_UNSAFE in 187de7c212e5 ("printk:
nbcon: Allow unsafe write_atomic() for panic"), and now we can
implement netconsole on top of nbcon.
Important to note that netconsole continues to call netpoll and the
network TX helpers with interrupt disable, given the TX are called with
target_list_lock.

netconsole: Use printk context for CPU and task information
Use the CPU and task name captured at printk() time from
nbcon_write_context instead of querying the current execution context.
This provides accurate information about where the message originated,
rather than where netconsole happens to be running.
For CPU, use wctxt->cpu instead of raw_smp_processor_id().
For taskname, use wctxt->comm directly which contains the task
name captured at printk time.
This change ensures netconsole outputs reflect the actual context that
generated the log message, which is especially important when the
console driver runs asynchronously in a dedicated thread.
Breno Leitao [Fri, 6 Feb 2026 12:45:31 +0000 (04:45 -0800)]
netconsole: convert to NBCON console infrastructure
Convert netconsole from the legacy console API to the NBCON framework.
NBCON provides threaded printing which unblocks printk()s and flushes in
a thread, decoupling network TX from printk() when netconsole is
in use.
Since netconsole relies on the network stack which cannot safely operate
from all atomic contexts, mark both consoles with
CON_NBCON_ATOMIC_UNSAFE. (See discussion in [1])
CON_NBCON_ATOMIC_UNSAFE restricts write_atomic() usage to emergency
scenarios (panic) where regular messages are sent in threaded mode.
Implementation changes:
- Unify write_ext_msg() and write_msg() into netconsole_write()
- Add device_lock/device_unlock callbacks to manage target_list_lock
- Use nbcon_enter_unsafe()/nbcon_exit_unsafe() around network
operations.
- If nbcon_enter_unsafe() fails, just return given netconsole lost
the ownership of the console.
- Set write_thread and write_atomic callbacks (both use same function)
Breno Leitao [Fri, 6 Feb 2026 12:45:30 +0000 (04:45 -0800)]
netconsole: extract message fragmentation into send_msg_udp()
Extract the message fragmentation logic from write_msg() into a
dedicated send_msg_udp() function. This improves code readability
and prepares for future enhancements.
The new send_msg_udp() function handles splitting messages that
exceed MAX_PRINT_CHUNK into smaller fragments and sending them
sequentially. This function is placed before send_ext_msg_udp()
to maintain a logical ordering of related functions.
No functional changes - this is purely a refactoring commit.

printk: Add execution context (task name/CPU) to printk_info
Extend struct printk_info to include the task name, pid, and CPU
number where printk messages originate. This information is captured
at vprintk_store() time and propagated through printk_message to
nbcon_write_context, making it available to nbcon console drivers.
This is useful for consoles like netconsole that want to include
execution context in their output, allowing correlation of messages
with specific tasks and CPUs regardless of where the console driver
actually runs.
The feature is controlled by CONFIG_PRINTK_EXECUTION_CTX, which is
automatically selected by CONFIG_NETCONSOLE_DYNAMIC. When disabled,
the helper functions compile to no-ops with no overhead.

configfs-tsm-report: tdx_guest: Increase Quote buffer size to 128KB
Intel platforms are transitioning from traditional SGX-based
attestation toward DICE-based attestation as part of a broader move
toward open and standardized attestation models. DICE enables layered
and extensible attestation, where evidence is accumulated across
multiple boot stages.
With SGX-based attestation, Quote sizes are typically under 8KB, as the
payload consists primarily of Quote data and a small certificate bundle.
Existing TDX guest code sizes the Quote buffer accordingly.
DICE-based attestation produces significantly larger Quotes due to the
inclusion of evidence (certificate chains) from multiple boot layers.
The cumulative Quote size can reach approximately 100KB.
Increase GET_QUOTE_BUF_SIZE to 128KB to ensure sufficient buffer
capacity for DICE-based Quote payloads.

configfs-tsm-report: Increase TSM_REPORT_OUTBLOB_MAX to 16MB
Confidential Computing (CoCo) attestation is evolving toward
standardized models such as DICE (Device Identifier Composition Engine)
and Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC), which rely on layered certificate
chains and larger cryptographic signatures.
A typical PQC certificate can range from 5KB to 15KB, and DICE-based
architectures accumulate these certificates across multiple boot
stages. In such configurations, the total attestation evidence can
reach several megabytes, exceeding the current 32KB limit.
Increase TSM_REPORT_OUTBLOB_MAX to 16MB to accommodate these larger
certificate chains. This provides sufficient headroom to handle
evolving requirements without requiring frequent updates to the limit.
TSM_REPORT_OUTBLOB_MAX is used by the configfs read interface to cap
the maximum allowed binary blob size for outblob, auxblob and
manifestblob attributes. Hence, the per-open-file worst case memory
allocation increases from 32KB to 16MB. Multiple concurrent readers
multiply this cost (e.g., N readers of an M-byte blob incur NxM bytes
of vmalloc-backed memory). However, allocations are performed on demand
and remain proportional to the actual blob length, not the configured
maximum.
configfs-tsm-report: Document size limits for outblob attributes
The configfs-tsm-report interface can fail with -EFBIG when the
attestation report generated by a TSM provider exceeds internal
maximums (TSM_REPORT_OUTBLOB_MAX). However, this error condition and
its handling are not currently documented in the ABI.
Userspace tools need to understand how to interpret various error
conditions when reading attestation reports.
Document that reads fail with -EFBIG when reports exceed size limits,
with guidance on how to resolve them.

- Switch get/put_unaligned() from packed struct to memcpy()

__builtin_memcpy() turns them into simple loads and stores
- Use __typeof_unqual__() for __unqual_scalar_typeof()
The get/put_unaligned() changes triggered a new sparse warning when
__beNN types are used with get/put_unaligned() as sparse builds add a
special 'bitwise' attribute to them which prevents sparse to evaluate
the Generic in __unqual_scalar_typeof().
Newer sparse versions support __typeof_unqual__() which avoids the
problem, but requires a recent sparse install. So this adds a sanity
check to sparse builds, which validates that sparse is available and
capable of handling it.

Pull MSI updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Updates for the [PCI] MSI subsystem:
- Add interrupt redirection infrastructure
Some PCI controllers use a single demultiplexing interrupt for the
MSI interrupts of subordinate devices.
This prevents setting the interrupt affinity of device interrupts,
which causes device interrupts to be delivered to a single CPU.
That obviously is counterproductive for multi-queue devices and
interrupt balancing.
To work around this limitation the new infrastructure installs a
dummy irq_set_affinity() callback which captures the affinity mask
and picks a redirection target CPU out of the mask.
When the PCI controller demultiplexes the interrupts it invokes a
new handling function in the core, which either runs the interrupt
handler in the context of the target CPU or delegates it to
irq_work on the target CPU.
- Utilize the interrupt redirection mechanism in the PCI DWC host
controller driver.
This allows affinity control for the subordinate device MSI
interrupts instead of being randomly executed on the CPU which runs
the demultiplex handler.
- Replace the binary 64-bit MSI flag with a DMA mask
Some PCI devices have PCI_MSI_FLAGS_64BIT in the MSI capability,
but implement less than 64 address bits. This breaks on platforms
where such a device is assigned an MSI address higher than what's
supported.
With the binary 64-bit flag there is no other choice than disabling
64-bit MSI support which leaves the device disfunctional.
By using a DMA mask the address limit of a device can be described
correctly which provides support for the above scenario.
- Make use of the DMA mask based address limit in the hda/intel and
radeon drivers to enable them on affected platforms

"Updates for the interrupt core subsystem:
- Remove the interrupt timing infrastructure
This was added seven years ago to be used for power management
purposes, but that integration never happened.
- Clean up the remaining setup_percpu_irq() users
The memory allocator is available when interrupts can be requested
so there is not need for static irq_action. Move the remaining
users to request_percpu_irq() and delete the historical cruft.
- Warn when interrupt flag inconsistencies are detected in
request*_irq().
Inconsistent flags can lead to hard to diagnose malfunction. The
fallout of this new warning has been addressed in next and the
fixes are coming in via the maintainer trees and the tip
irq/cleanup pull requests.
- Invoke affinity notifier when CPU hotplug breaks affinity
Otherwise the code using the notifier misses the affinity change

- Further consolidate configurable preemption modes (Peter Zijlstra)
Reduce the number of architectures that are allowed to offer
PREEMPT_NONE and PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY, reducing the number of
preemption models from four to just two: 'full' and 'lazy' on
up-to-date architectures (arm64, loongarch, powerpc, riscv, s390,
x86).
None and voluntary are only available as legacy features on
platforms that don't implement lazy preemption yet, or which don't
even support preemption.
The goal is to eventually remove cond_resched() and voluntary
preemption altogether.
RSEQ based 'scheduler time slice extension' support (Thomas Gleixner

Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
"Lock debugging:
- Implement compiler-driven static analysis locking context checking,
using the upcoming Clang 22 compiler's context analysis features
(Marco Elver)
We removed Sparse context analysis support, because prior to
removal even a defconfig kernel produced 1,700+ context tracking
Sparse warnings, the overwhelming majority of which are false
positives. On an allmodconfig kernel the number of false positive
context tracking Sparse warnings grows to over 5,200... On the plus
side of the balance actual locking bugs found by Sparse context
analysis is also rather ... sparse: I found only 3 such commits in
the last 3 years. So the rate of false positives and the
maintenance overhead is rather high and there appears to be no
active policy in place to achieve a zero-warnings baseline to move
the annotations & fixers to developers who introduce new code.
Clang context analysis is more complete and more aggressive in
trying to find bugs, at least in principle. Plus it has a different
model to enabling it: it's enabled subsystem by subsystem, which
results in zero warnings on all relevant kernel builds (as far as
our testing managed to cover it). Which allowed us to enable it by
default, similar to other compiler warnings, with the expectation
that there are no warnings going forward. This enforces a
zero-warnings baseline on clang-22+ builds (Which are still limited
in distribution, admittedly)
Hopefully the Clang approach can lead to a more maintainable
zero-warnings status quo and policy, with more and more subsystems
and drivers enabling the feature. Context tracking can be enabled
for all kernel code via WARN_CONTEXT_ANALYSIS_ALL=y (default
disabled), but this will generate a lot of false positives.
( Having said that, Sparse support could still be added back,
if anyone is interested - the removal patch is still
relatively straightforward to revert at this stage. )
- Add support for the core PMU for Intel Diamond Rapids (DMR) CPUs
(Dapeng Mi)
Compared to previous iterations of the Intel PMU code, there's been
a lot of changes, which center around three main areas:
- Introduce the OFF-MODULE RESPONSE (OMR) facility to replace the
Off-Core Response (OCR) facility
- New PEBS data source encoding layout
- Support the new "RDPMC user disable" feature
- Likewise, a large series adds uncore PMU support for Intel Diamond
Rapids (DMR) CPUs (Zide Chen)
This centers around these four main areas:
- DMR may have two Integrated I/O and Memory Hub (IMH) dies,
separate from the compute tile (CBB) dies. Each CBB and each IMH
die has its own discovery domain.
- Unlike prior CPUs that retrieve the global discovery table
portal exclusively via PCI or MSR, DMR uses PCI for IMH PMON
discovery and MSR for CBB PMON discovery.
- DMR introduces several new PMON types: SCA, HAMVF, D2D_ULA, UBR,
PCIE4, CRS, CPC, ITC, OTC, CMS, and PCIE6.
- IIO free-running counters in DMR are MMIO-based, unlike SPR.
- Also add support for Add missing PMON units for Intel Panther Lake,
and support Nova Lake (NVL), which largely maps to Panther Lake.
(Zide Chen)
- KVM integration: Add support for mediated vPMUs (by Kan Liang and
Sean Christopherson, with fixes and cleanups by Peter Zijlstra,
Sandipan Das and Mingwei Zhang)
- Add Intel cstate driver to support for Wildcat Lake (WCL) CPUs,
which are a low-power variant of Panther Lake (Zide Chen)
- Add core, cstate and MSR PMU support for the Airmont NP Intel CPU
(aka MaxLinear Lightning Mountain), which maps to the existing
Airmont code (Martin Schiller)
Performance enhancements:
- Speed up kexec shutdown by avoiding unnecessary cross CPU calls
(Jan H. Schönherr)
- Fix slow perf_event_task_exit() with LBR callstacks (Namhyung Kim)
User-space stack unwinding support:
- Various cleanups and refactorings in preparation to generalize the
unwinding code for other architectures (Jens Remus)

- Transition from kmap_atomic to kmap_local_page (Keke Ming)
- Fix incorrect lockdep condition in filter_chain() (Breno Leitao)
- Fix XOL allocation failure for 32-bit tasks (Oleg Nesterov)

upstream support, are coming
- Deduplicate pin-init flags

- 'rbtree' module: reduce unsafe blocks on pointer derefs
- 'transmute' module: implement 'FromBytes' and 'AsBytes' for

- More treewide replacements of 'c_str!' with C string literals
'macros' crate:
- Rewrite most procedural macros ('module!', 'concat_idents!',
'#[export]', '#[vtable]', '#[kunit_tests]') to use the 'syn'
parsing library which we introduced last cycle, with better
diagnostics
This also allows to support '#[cfg]' properly in the '#[vtable]'
macro, to support arbitrary types in 'module!' macro (not just an
identifier) and to remove several custom parsing helpers we had
- Use 'quote!' from the recently vendored 'quote' library and remove
our custom one
The vendored one also allows us to avoid quoting '"' and '{}'
inside the template anymore and editors can now highlight it. In
addition, it improves robustness as it eliminates the need for
string quoting and escaping
- Use 'pin_init::zeroed()' to simplify KUnit code
'pin-init' crate:
- Rewrite all procedural macros ('[pin_]init!', '#[pin_data]',
'#[pinned_drop]', 'derive([Maybe]Zeroable)') to use the 'syn'
parsing library which we introduced last cycle, with better
diagnostics
- Implement 'InPlaceWrite' for '&'static mut MaybeUninit<T>'. This
enables users to use external allocation mechanisms such as
'static_cell'
- Support tuple structs in 'derive([Maybe]Zeroable)'
- Support attributes on fields in '[pin_]init!' (such as
'#[cfg(...)]')
- Add a '#[default_error(<type>)]' attribute to '[pin_]init!' to
override the default error (when no '? Error' is specified)
- Support packed structs in '[pin_]init!' with
'#[disable_initialized_field_access]'
- Remove 'try_[pin_]init!' in favor of merging their feature with
'[pin_]init!'. Update the kernel's own 'try_[pin_]init!' macros to
use the 'default_error' attribute
- Correct 'T: Sized' bounds to 'T: ?Sized' in the generated
'PinnedDrop' check by '#[pin_data]'
Documentation:
- Conclude the Rust experiment

This reverts commit f51424872760 ("ASoC: fsl_xcvr: fix missing lock in fsl_xcvr_mode_put()").
The original patch attempted to acquire the card->controls_rwsem lock in
fsl_xcvr_mode_put(). However, this function is called from the upper ALSA
core function snd_ctl_elem_write(), which already holds the write lock on
controls_rwsem for the whole put operation. So there is no need to simply
hold the lock for fsl_xcvr_activate_ctl() again.
Acquiring the read lock while holding the write lock in the same thread
results in a deadlock and a hung task, as reported by Alexander Stein.

SHA-1 is no longer considered secure for signatures due to

landlock: Transpose the layer masks data structure
The layer masks data structure tracks the requested but unfulfilled
access rights during an operation's security check. It stores one bit
for each combination of access right and layer index. If the bit is
set, that access right is not granted (yet) in the given layer and we
have to traverse the path further upwards to grant it.
Previously, the layer masks were stored as arrays mapping from access
right indices to layer_mask_t. The layer_mask_t value then indicates
all layers in which the given access right is still (tentatively)
denied.
This patch introduces struct layer_access_masks instead: This struct
contains an array with the access_mask_t of each (tentatively) denied
access right in that layer.
The hypothesis of this patch is that this simplifies the code enough
so that the resulting code will run faster:
* We can use bitwise operations in multiple places where we previously
looped over bits individually with macros. (Should require less
branch speculation and lends itself to better loop unrolling.)
* Code is ~75 lines smaller.
Other noteworthy changes:
* In no_more_access(), call a new helper function may_refer(), which
only solves the asymmetric case. Previously, the code interleaved
the checks for the two symmetric cases in RENAME_EXCHANGE. It feels
that the code is clearer when renames without RENAME_EXCHANGE are
more obviously the normal case.
Tradeoffs:
This change improves performance, at a slight size increase to the
layer masks data structure.
This fixes the size of the data structure at 32 bytes for all types of
access rights. (64, once we introduce a 17th filesystem access right).
For filesystem access rights, at the moment, the data structure has
the same size as before, but once we introduce the 17th filesystem
access right, it will double in size (from 32 to 64 bytes), as
access_mask_t grows from 16 to 32 bit [1].

landlock: Add access_mask_subset() helper
This helper function checks whether an access_mask_t has a subset of the
bits enabled than another one. This expresses the intent a bit smoother
in the code and does not cost us anything when it gets inlined.
fs_bench benchmarks the performance of Landlock's path walk
by exercising it in a scenario that amplifies Landlock's overhead:
* Create a large number of nested directories
* Enforce a Landlock policy in which a rule is associated with each of
these subdirectories
* Benchmark openat() applied to the deepest directory,
forcing Landlock to walk the entire path.
The LWMI_SUPP_MAY_{GET,SET} macros are fundamentally broken. When I
introduced them, I meant to check LWMI_SUPP_VALID *and* the
corresponding bits for get/set capabilities. However, `supported &
LWMI_SUPP_MAY_{GET,SET}' means *or*, so it accidentally passes the check
when LWMI_SUPP_VALID is set.
Fix them by only including the corresponding get/set bit without
LWMI_SUPP_VALID. Meanwhile, rename them to LWMI_SUPP_{GET,SET} to make
them less confusing.

hwmon: (pmbus/mpq8785) fix VOUT_MODE mismatch during identification
When MPQ8785 reports VOUT_MODE as VID mode, mpq8785_identify()
configures the driver for direct mode. The subsequent
pmbus_identify_common() check then fails due to a mismatch
between the reported mode and the configured mode, causing
device initialization to fail.
Override the reported VOUT_MODE to direct mode to keep the
driver configuration consistent with the reported mode and
allow successful device initialization.
This does not change how voltages are interpreted, but avoids
a false identification failure caused by mismatched mode
handling.
Jean Delvare points out that the patch does not completely
fix the reported problem, that it in fact introduces a
(new) race condition, and that it may actually not be needed in
the first place.
Various AI reviews agree. Specific and relevant AI feedback:
"
This reordering sets the driver data to NULL before removing the sensor
attributes in the loop below.
ibmpex_show_sensor() retrieves this driver data via dev_get_drvdata() but
does not check if it is NULL before dereferencing it to access
data->sensors[].
If a userspace process reads a sensor file (like temp1_input) while this
delete function is running, could it race with the dev_set_drvdata(...,
NULL) call here and crash in ibmpex_show_sensor()?
Would it be safer to keep the original order where device_remove_file() is
called before clearing the driver data? device_remove_file() should wait
for any active sysfs callbacks to complete, which might already prevent the
use-after-free this patch intends to fix.
"
Revert the offending patch. If it can be shown that the originally reported
alleged race condition does indeed exist, it can always be re-introduced

via unregister_netdevice, and each ser binds exactly one tty), we can
safely defer the tty reference release to ser_release() where the
network device is unregistered.
Fix this by moving tty_kref_put() from ldisc_close() to ser_release(),
after unregister_netdevice(). This ensures the tty reference is held
as long as the network device exists, preventing the UAF.
Note: We save ser->tty before unregister_netdevice() because ser is
embedded in netdev's private data and will be freed along with netdev
(needs_free_netdev = true).
How to reproduce: Add mdelay(500) at the beginning of ldisc_close()
to widen the race window, then run the reproducer program [1].
Note: There is a separate deadloop issue in handle_tx() when using
PORT_UNKNOWN serial ports (e.g., /dev/ttyS3 in QEMU without proper
serial backend). This deadloop exists even without this patch,
and is likely caused by inconsistency between uart_write_room() and
uart_write() in serial core. It has been addressed in a separate
patch [2].
