Pull non-MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- "ocfs2: exit recovery thread on mount error path" (Joseph Qi):
Stop OCFS2 recovery before freeing failed-mount state and replay
slots, closing use-after-free and double-free races. Defer
suballocator reclaim to break a transaction-lock deadlock with
dismount.
- "ocfs2: validate suballoc slot and bit of metadata blocks" (Joseph
Qi):
Validate OCFS2 metadata suballocator slots, bits and directory index
block locations. Reject corrupt metadata with filesystem errors
instead of BUGs or out-of-bounds accesses.
- "ocfs2: deal with legacy signed name hash values" (Joseph Qi):
Restore OCFS2 lookups for non-ASCII names stored with legacy signed
hashes. Use stored xattr hashes during bucket splits to avoid
duplicate entries and spurious ENOSPC failures.
- "ocfs2: stabilize dentry names in file and setattr traces" (Cen
Zhang):
Snapshot OCFS2 names during file and setattr tracing to prevent
rename races using freed storage or mismatched names and lengths.
Preserve trace formats and the locked release open-count sample.
- "panic: fix panic_force_cpu= redirect races and NMI bypass" (Bradley
Morgan):
Fix panic_force_cpu races and NMI redirection so crash-kernel CPU
selection is honored. Preserve variable arguments on failed redirects
and use a static message buffer.
- "fat: allocate multiple clusters in fallocate" (Matheus Alves de
Almeida):
Allocate FAT clusters in batches for FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE and batch
FAT updates. This removes repeated single-cluster allocation
overhead, particularly on synchronous mounts.
- "scripts/gdb: fix radix tree lookup and stack depot diagnostic"
(Ting-Han Hou):
Fix GDB radix-tree lookup and its handling of XArray sibling, retry
and zero entries. Also repair the stack-depot diagnostic for an
out-of-range pool index.
- "hung_task: Improve warning budget handling and task reporting"
(Aaron Tomlin):
Reset the hung-task warning budget after recovery so later hangs
remain visible. Keep the configured limit intact and emit one summary
per scan when detailed reports exhaust the budget.
- "bootconfig: Reject unexpected data after null character and
cleanups" (Masami Hiramatsu):
Reject bootconfig data after an embedded null while accepting
trailing padding. Validate the full input in the userspace tool, and
retain internal tree sanity checks there rather than in the kernel.
- "kbuild: GCOV cleanups following the prefer-atomic fix" (Konstantin
Khorenko):
Use the actual GCOV build flags in the prefer-atomic compiler probe.
Move flag setup into scripts/Makefile.gcov and skip the probe when
GCOV is disabled.
- "ocfs2: xattr bucket validation fixes" (Joseph Qi):
Accept valid OCFS2 xattr buckets spanning 512-byte blocks, avoiding
false read-only remounts. Reject misaligned buckets and return errors
instead of panicking on corrupt defrag metadata.
- "ocfs2: fix metadata reservation for xattr value trees" (Joseph Qi):
Reserve enough OCFS2 metadata for new and relocated xattr value
trees. Fix shortfalls which could cause ENOSPC, dropped entries and
leaked clusters on fragmented filesystems; remove duplicate
reservations.
- "Introduce arch_do_panic" (Mete Durlu):
Add arch_do_panic() and move s390 and sparc handling out of generic
panic code. The architecture-specific actions now follow the
end-of-panic marker.
- "checkpatch: userspace improvements" (Petr Vorel):
Improve checkpatch's userspace detection and suppress kernel-only
checks. Recognize standard inttypes macros and add explicit
--userspace and --no-userspace overrides.
- "ocfs2: validate dr_fs_generation of dir index root blocks" (Joseph
Qi):
Check OCFS2 directory index generations and leaf block numbers.
Reject stale or misplaced blocks instead of using metadata left by a
previously formatted filesystem.
- "selftests/membarrier: Skip an unregistered memory barrier test on
Musl" (Chris Gellermann):
Skip the unregistered membarrier test when libc has already
registered the command. Musl does this during thread creation,
causing false failures in the multithreaded test.
- "init: fix array boundary bugs in boot parameter parsing"
(Wilson Felipe Pereira):
Fix boot argument boundary cases which leave stale arguments in
init's command line or panic when replacing the final environment
variable. Clear the last slot and check duplicates before the limit.
Summary of the 87 singletons in this merge:
The OCFS2 singletons fix deadlocks between xattr updates and inline
truncation, and during inode reclaim. Corrupt quota and extent
metadata could also crash the kernel or corrupt memory; these paths
now check the layout before using it. Other fixes close use-after-free
and publication races around cluster reconfiguration, node failure,
quota remount errors and shared refcount trees. New files now retain
security labels from all stacked LSMs instead of silently dropping all
but one. Valid xattr insertions also stop tripping FORTIFY on builds
with counted arrays.
Elsewhere, a lost wakeup could leave hardware-monitoring reads stuck
in unkillable sleep and block further I2C traffic. That is fixed, as
are kernel memory leaks in POSIX message-queue notifications and tmpfs
casefold setup which could grow until memory is exhausted. A driver
removal race which could crash the kernel is fixed too. The
hibernation command through reboot() also stops taking the same mutex
twice, avoiding a deadlock before suspension.
On the boot side, bzip2 decoding now accepts valid full blocks emitted
by lbzip2, fixing failures to boot those compressed kernels. Malformed
bzip2 streams can no longer overflow the decode buffer, and LZ4
initrds are checked before the decoder can read past their end. FAT
rejects geometry which overflows the data-area calculation on 32-bit
systems, and rolls back entries when inode setup fails, preventing
failed creations from reappearing after remount. The x86 XOR and RAID6
AVX paths also avoid imposing a slowdown on subsequent SSE code.
