Commit 3e86e4d74c04 ("kbuild: keep .modinfo section in
vmlinux.unstripped") added .modinfo to ELF_DETAILS while removing it
from COMMON_DISCARDS, as it was needed in vmlinux.unstripped and
ELF_DETAILS was present in all architecture specific vmlinux linker
scripts. While this shuffle is fine for vmlinux, ELF_DETAILS and
COMMON_DISCARDS may be used by other linker scripts, such as the s390
and x86 compressed boot images, which may not expect to have a .modinfo
section. In certain circumstances, this could result in a bootloader
failing to load the compressed kernel [1].

Commit ddc6cbef3ef1 ("s390/boot/vmlinux.lds.S: Ensure bzImage ends with
SecureBoot trailer") recently addressed this for the s390 bzImage but
the same bug remains for arm, parisc, and x86. The presence of .modinfo
in the x86 bzImage was the root cause of the issue worked around with
commit d50f21091358 ("kbuild: align modinfo section for Secureboot
Authenticode EDK2 compat"). misc.c in arch/x86/boot/compressed includes
lib/decompress_unzstd.c, which in turn includes lib/xxhash.c and its
MODULE_LICENSE / MODULE_DESCRIPTION macros due to the STATIC definition.

Split .modinfo out from ELF_DETAILS into its own macro and handle it in
all vmlinux linker scripts. Discard .modinfo in the places where it was
previously being discarded from being in COMMON_DISCARDS, as it has
never been necessary in those uses.

<title>Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argument</title>
<updated>2026-02-22T01:09:51+00:00</updated>

<id>bf4afc53b77aeaa48b5409da5c8da6bb4eff7f43</id>
<content type='text'>
This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using

    git grep -l '\&lt;k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
        xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'

to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.

Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.

For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

<title>treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types</title>

<id>69050f8d6d075dc01af7a5f2f550a8067510366f</id>
<content type='text'>
This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:

Single allocations:	kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)

Array allocations:	kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)

Flex array allocations:	kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)

(where TYPE may also be *VAR)

The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

   consolidates a pile of straggly code related to reservation of
   hugetlb memory from bootmem and creation of CMA areas for hugetlb
   (Mike Rapoport)

 - "mm: clean up anon_vma implementation" cleans up the anon_vma
   implementation in various ways (Lorenzo Stoakes)

 - "tweaks for __alloc_pages_slowpath()" does a little streamlining of
   the page allocator's slowpath code (Vlastimil Babka)

 - "memcg: separate private and public ID namespaces" cleans up the
   memcg ID code and prevents the internal-only private IDs from being
   exposed to userspace (Shakeel Butt)

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "Scheduler Kconfig space updates:

   - 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
  and Peter Zijlstra):

  This allows a thread to request a time slice extension when it enters
  a critical section to avoid contention on a resource when the thread
  is scheduled out inside of the critical section.

   - Add fields and constants for time slice extension
   - Provide static branch for time slice extensions
   - Add statistics for time slice extensions
   - Add prctl() to enable time slice extensions
   - Implement sys_rseq_slice_yield()
   - Implement syscall entry work for time slice extensions
   - Implement time slice extension enforcement timer
   - Reset slice extension when scheduled
   - Implement rseq_grant_slice_extension()
   - entry: Hook up rseq time slice extension
   - selftests: Implement time slice extension test
   - Allow registering RSEQ with slice extension
   - Move slice_ext_nsec to debugfs
   - Lower default slice extension
   - selftests/rseq: Add rseq slice histogram script

  Scheduler performance/scalability improvements:

   - Update rq-&gt;avg_idle when a task is moved to an idle CPU, which
     improves the scalability of various workloads (Shubhang Kaushik)

   - Reorder fields in 'struct rq' for better caching (Blake Jones)

   - Fair scheduler SMP NOHZ balancing code speedups (Shrikanth Hegde):
      - Move checking for nohz cpus after time check
      - Change likelyhood of nohz.nr_cpus
      - Remove nohz.nr_cpus and use weight of cpumask instead

   - Avoid false sharing for sched_clock_irqtime (Wangyang Guo)

   - Cleanups (Yury Norov):
      - Drop useless cpumask_empty() in find_energy_efficient_cpu()
      - Simplify task_numa_find_cpu()
      - Use cpumask_weight_and() in sched_balance_find_dst_group()

  DL scheduler updates:

   - Add a deadline server for sched_ext tasks (by Andrea Righi and Joel
     Fernandes, with fixes by Peter Zijlstra)

  RT scheduler updates:

   - Skip currently executing CPU in rto_next_cpu() (Chen Jinghuang)

  Entry code updates and performance improvements (Jinjie Ruan)

  This is part of the scheduler tree in this cycle due to inter-
  dependencies with the RSEQ based time slice extension work:

    - Remove unused syscall argument from syscall_trace_enter()
    - Rework syscall_exit_to_user_mode_work() for architecture reuse
    - Add arch_ptrace_report_syscall_entry/exit()
    - Inline syscall_exit_work() and syscall_trace_enter()

  Scheduler core updates (Peter Zijlstra):

   - Rework sched_class::wakeup_preempt() and rq_modified_*()
   - Avoid rq-&gt;lock bouncing in sched_balance_newidle()
   - Rename rcu_dereference_check_sched_domain() =&gt;
            rcu_dereference_sched_domain()
   - &lt;linux/compiler_types.h&gt;: Add the __signed_scalar_typeof() helper

  Fair scheduler updates/refactoring (Peter Zijlstra and Ingo Molnar):

   - Fold the sched_avg update
   - Change rcu_dereference_check_sched_domain() to rcu-sched
   - Switch to rcu_dereference_all()
   - Remove superfluous rcu_read_lock()
   - Limit hrtick work
   - Join two #ifdef CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED blocks
   - Clean up comments in 'struct cfs_rq'
   - Separate se-&gt;vlag from se-&gt;vprot
   - Rename cfs_rq::avg_load to cfs_rq::sum_weight
   - Rename cfs_rq::avg_vruntime to ::sum_w_vruntime &amp; helper functions
   - Introduce and use the vruntime_cmp() and vruntime_op() wrappers for
     wrapped-signed aritmetics
   - Sort out 'blocked_load*' namespace noise

  Scheduler debugging code updates:

   - Convert copy_from_user() + kstrtouint() to kstrtouint_from_user()
     (Fushuai Wang)

   - Add assertions to QUEUE_CLASS (Peter Zijlstra)

   - hrtimer: Fix tracing oddity (Thomas Gleixner)

  Misc fixes and cleanups:

   - Re-evaluate scheduling when migrating queued tasks out of throttled
     cgroups (Zicheng Qu)

   - Remove task_struct-&gt;faults_disabled_mapping (Christoph Hellwig)

   - Fix math notation errors in avg_vruntime comment (Zhan Xusheng)

Pull crypto library updates from Eric Biggers:

 - Add support for verifying ML-DSA signatures.

   ML-DSA (Module-Lattice-Based Digital Signature Algorithm) is a
   recently-standardized post-quantum (quantum-resistant) signature
   algorithm. It was known as Dilithium pre-standardization.

   The first use case in the kernel will be module signing. But there
   are also other users of RSA and ECDSA signatures in the kernel that
   might want to upgrade to ML-DSA eventually.

 - Improve the AES library:

     - Make the AES key expansion and single block encryption and
       decryption functions use the architecture-optimized AES code.
       Enable these optimizations by default.

     - Support preparing an AES key for encryption-only, using about
       half as much memory as a bidirectional key.

     - Replace the existing two generic implementations of AES with a
       single one.

 - Simplify how Adiantum message hashing is implemented. Remove the
   "nhpoly1305" crypto_shash in favor of direct lib/crypto/ support for
   NH hashing, and enable optimizations by default.

To initialize node, zone and memory map data structures every architecture
calls free_area_init() during setup_arch() and passes it an array of zone
limits.

Beside code duplication it creates "interesting" ordering cases between
allocation and initialization of hugetlb and the memory map.  Some
architectures allocate hugetlb pages very early in setup_arch() in certain
cases, some only create hugetlb CMA areas in setup_arch() and sometimes
hugetlb allocations happen mm_core_init().

With arch_zone_limits_init() helper available now on all architectures it
is no longer necessary to call free_area_init() from architecture setup
code.  Rather core MM initialization can call arch_zone_limits_init() in a
single place.

This allows to unify ordering of hugetlb vs memory map allocation and
initialization.

Remove the call to free_area_init() from architecture specific code and
place it in a new mm_core_init_early() function that is called immediately
after setup_arch().

After this refactoring it is possible to consolidate hugetlb allocations
and eliminate differences in ordering of hugetlb and memory map
initialization among different architectures.

As the first step of this consolidation move hugetlb_bootmem_alloc() to
mm_core_early_init().

<title>m68k: introduce arch_zone_limits_init()</title>

Move calculations of zone limits to a dedicated arch_zone_limits_init()
function.

Later MM core will use this function as an architecture specific callback
during nodes and zones initialization and thus there won't be a need to
call free_area_init() from every architecture.

Since all variants of m68k add all memory to ZONE_DMA, it is possible to
use unified implementation for arch_zone_limits_init() that sets the end
of ZONE_DMA to memblock_end_of_DRAM().
