2026-01-29riscv: create a Kconfig fragment for shadow stack and landing pad supportDeepak Gupta
This patch creates a Kconfig fragment for shadow stack support and landing pad instruction support. Shadow stack support and landing pad instruction support can be enabled by selecting 'CONFIG_RISCV_USER_CFI'. Selecting 'CONFIG_RISCV_USER_CFI' wires up the path to enumerate CPU support. If support exists, the kernel will support CPU-assisted user mode CFI. If CONFIG_RISCV_USER_CFI is selected, select 'ARCH_USES_HIGH_VMA_FLAGS', 'ARCH_HAS_USER_SHADOW_STACK' and 'DYNAMIC_SIGFRAME' for riscv.

2025-11-19RISC-V: Enable HOTPLUG_PARALLEL for secondary CPUsAnup Patel
The core kernel already supports parallel bringup of secondary CPUs (aka HOTPLUG_PARALLEL). The x86 and MIPS architectures already use HOTPLUG_PARALLEL and ARM is also moving toward it. On RISC-V, there is no arch specific global data accessed in the RISC-V secondary CPU bringup path so enabling HOTPLUG_PARALLEL for RISC-V would only require: 1) Providing RISC-V specific arch_cpuhp_kick_ap_alive() 2) Calling cpuhp_ap_sync_alive() from smp_callin() This patch is tested natively with OpenSBI on QEMU RV64 virt machine with 64 cores and also tested with KVM RISC-V guest with 32 VCPUs.

In preparation for GCC supporting KCFI, rename CONFIG_CFI_CLANG to CONFIG_CFI (along with associated options). Use new "transitional" Kconfig option for old CONFIG_CFI_CLANG that will enable CONFIG_CFI during olddefconfig.

2025-09-04riscv: Only allow LTO with CMODEL_MEDANYNathan Chancellor
When building with CONFIG_CMODEL_MEDLOW and CONFIG_LTO_CLANG, there is a series of errors due to some files being unconditionally compiled with '-mcmodel=medany', mismatching with the rest of the kernel built with '-mcmodel=medlow': ld.lld: error: Function Import: link error: linking module flags 'Code Model': IDs have conflicting values: 'i32 3' from vmlinux.a(init.o at 899908), and 'i32 1' from vmlinux.a(net-traces.o at 1014628) Only allow LTO to be performed when CONFIG_CMODEL_MEDANY is enabled to ensure there will be no code model mismatch errors. An alternative solution would be disabling LTO for the files with a different code model than the main kernel like some specialized areas of the kernel do but doing that for individual files is not as sustainable than forbidding the combination altogether.

On riscv32 the generic vDSO infrastructure is used but without its time-related functionality. The Kconfig logic to implement this treats HAVE_GENERIC_VDSO as a synonym for GENERIC_GETTIMEOFDAY. This works today due to some underlying issues in how the generic vDSO library works. Some future cleanups will break this logic. Restructure the Kconfig logic, so HAVE_GENERIC_VDSO refers to the generic library in general and GENERIC_GETTIMEOFDAY refers to its time-related functionality.

2025-09-03binfmt_elf: preserve original ELF e_flags for core dumpsSvetlana Parfenova
Some architectures, such as RISC-V, use the ELF e_flags field to encode ABI-specific information (e.g., ISA extensions, fpu support). Debuggers like GDB rely on these flags in core dumps to correctly interpret optional register sets. If the flags are missing or incorrect, GDB may warn and ignore valid data, for example: warning: Unexpected size of section '.reg2/213' in core file. This can prevent access to fpu or other architecture-specific registers even when they were dumped. Save the e_flags field during ELF binary loading (in load_elf_binary()) into the mm_struct, and later retrieve it during core dump generation (in fill_note_info()). Kconfig option CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_ELF_CORE_EFLAGS is introduced for architectures that require this behaviour.

"mm: Remove pXX_devmap page table bit and pfn_t type" (Alistair Popple) removes several now-unneeded PFN_* flags. "mm/damon: decouple sysfs from core" (SeongJae Park) implememnts some cleanup and maintainability work in the DAMON sysfs layer. "madvise cleanup" (Lorenzo Stoakes) does quite a lot of cleanup/maintenance work in the madvise() code. "madvise anon_name cleanups" (Vlastimil Babka) provides additional cleanups on top or Lorenzo's effort. "Implement numa node notifier" (Oscar Salvador) creates a standalone notifier for NUMA node memory state changes. Previously these were lumped under the more general memory on/offline notifier. "Make MIGRATE_ISOLATE a standalone bit" (Zi Yan) cleans up the pageblock isolation code and fixes a potential issue which doesn't seem to cause any problems in practice. "selftests/damon: add python and drgn based DAMON sysfs functionality tests" (SeongJae Park) adds additional drgn- and python-based DAMON selftests which are more comprehensive than the existing selftest suite.

"mm: per-node proactive reclaim" (Davidlohr Bueso) implements a per-node control of proactive reclaim - beyond the current memcg-based implementation. "mm/damon: remove damon_callback" (SeongJae Park) replaces the damon_callback interface with a more general and powerful damon_call()+damos_walk() interface. "mm/mremap: permit mremap() move of multiple VMAs" (Lorenzo Stoakes) implements a number of mremap cleanups (of course) in preparation for adding new mremap() functionality: newly permit the remapping of multiple VMAs when the user is specifying MREMAP_FIXED. It still excludes some specialized situations where this cannot be performed reliably. "drop hugetlb_free_pgd_range()" (Anthony Yznaga) switches some sparc hugetlb code over to the generic version and removes the thus-unneeded hugetlb_free_pgd_range(). "mm/damon/sysfs: support periodic and automated stats update" (SeongJae Park) augments the present userspace-requested update of DAMON sysfs monitoring files. Automatic update is now provided, along with a tunable to control the update interval. "Some randome fixes and cleanups to swapfile" (Kemeng Shi) does what is claims. "mm: introduce snapshot_page" (Luiz Capitulino and David Hildenbrand) provides (and uses) a means by which debug-style functions can grab a copy of a pageframe and inspect it locklessly without tripping over the races inherent in operating on the live pageframe directly. "use per-vma locks for /proc/pid/maps reads" (Suren Baghdasaryan) addresses the large contention issues which can be triggered by reads from that procfs file. Latencies are reduced by more than half in some situations. The series also introduces several new selftests for the /proc/pid/maps interface. "__folio_split() clean up" (Zi Yan) cleans up __folio_split()! "Optimize mprotect() for large folios" (Dev Jain) provides some quite large (>3x) speedups to mprotect() when dealing with large folios. "selftests/mm: reuse FORCE_READ to replace "asm volatile("" : "+r" (XXX));" and some cleanup" (wang lian) does some cleanup work in the selftests code. "tools/testing: expand mremap testing" (Lorenzo Stoakes) extends the mremap() selftest in several ways, including adding more checking of Lorenzo's recently added "permit mremap() move of multiple VMAs" feature.

2025-07-22tracing: Remove redundant config HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT_RECORDSteven Rostedt
Ftrace is tightly coupled with architecture specific code because it requires the use of trampolines written in assembly. This means that when a new feature or optimization is made, it must be done for all architectures. To simplify the approach, CONFIG_HAVE_FTRACE_* configs are added to denote which architecture has the new enhancement so that other architectures can still function until they too have been updated. The CONFIG_HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT was added to help simplify the DYNAMIC_FTRACE work, but now every architecture that implements DYNAMIC_FTRACE also has HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT set too, making it redundant with the HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE. Remove the HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT config and use DYNAMIC_FTRACE directly where applicable.

2025-07-21stackleak: Rename STACKLEAK to KSTACK_ERASEKees Cook
In preparation for adding Clang sanitizer coverage stack depth tracking that can support stack depth callbacks: - Add the new top-level CONFIG_KSTACK_ERASE option which will be implemented either with the stackleak GCC plugin, or with the Clang stack depth callback support. - Rename CONFIG_GCC_PLUGIN_STACKLEAK as needed to CONFIG_KSTACK_ERASE, but keep it for anything specific to the GCC plugin itself. - Rename all exposed "STACKLEAK" names and files to "KSTACK_ERASE" (named for what it does rather than what it protects against), but leave as many of the internals alone as possible to avoid even more churn. While here, also split "prev_lowest_stack" into CONFIG_KSTACK_ERASE_METRICS, since that's the only place it is referenced from.

The binary GCD implementation depends on efficient ffs(), which on RISC-V requires hardware support for the Zbb extension. When CONFIG_RISCV_ISA_ZBB is not enabled, the kernel will never use binary GCD, as runtime logic will always fall back to the odd-even implementation.
