7 daysmm: memblock: show all region flags in debugfsMeijing Zhao
Commit 493f349e38d0 ("memblock: Add flags and nid info in memblock debugfs") made memblock_debug_show() stop after finding the first set flag. A memblock region can carry multiple flags, so the remaining flags are hidden from debugfs. Walk all bits in the region flags and print every set flag separated by "|". Keep walking beyond flagname[] so that a set flag without a known name is reported as UNKNOWN rather than silently ignored.

8 daysmm/shrinker: fix bogus set_shrinker_bit() with cgroup.memory=nokmemJiayuan Chen
With cgroup.memory=nokmem, shrinker_memcg_alloc() bails out early and never allocates an id, so shrinker->id keeps the 0 it got from the kzalloc() in shrinker_alloc(). __list_lru_init() then copies that 0 into lru->shrinker_id, where it looks like a valid bit index. Nothing calls expand_shrinker_info() on nokmem either, so shrinker_nr_max stays 0 and every memcg ends up with an empty map (map_nr_max == 0). deferred_split_folio() hands a real memcg to __list_lru_add() regardless of whether the lru is memcg aware, so the first THP queued in a cgroup does set_shrinker_bit(memcg, nid, 0) and trips the bounds check: WARNING: mm/shrinker.c:212 at set_shrinker_bit+0x7d/0x90, CPU#126 Call Trace: <TASK> deferred_split_folio+0x18c/0x220 map_anon_folio_pmd_nopf+0xdd/0x130 map_anon_folio_pmd_pf+0x14/0xb0 do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page+0x1a1/0x620 __handle_mm_fault+0xea9/0x10d0 handle_mm_fault+0xe5/0x320 do_user_addr_fault+0x1cc/0x870 exc_page_fault+0x81/0x1b0 asm_exc_page_fault+0x27/0x30 </TASK> Harmless, the WARN_ON_ONCE() is what keeps the out of bounds unit[] read from happening, but the id should not look valid in the first place.

Two other spots could paper over this: drop the id in __list_lru_init() when nokmem turns memcg_aware off, or make deferred_split_folio() pass NULL like list_lru_add_obj() does.

8 daysmm/vma: correctly unaccount on mmap_prepare() failureLorenzo Stoakes (ARM)
__mmap_setup() accounts memory for relevant mappings via: security_vm_enough_memory_mm() -> __vm_enough_memory() -> vm_acct_memory() If __mmap_setup() fails, this indicates that this accounting did not take place, and thus it's appropriate for __mmap_region() to jump to abort_munmap. However if call_mmap_prepare() fails, it also jumps there and any accounted memory is not correctly unaccounted. Fix this by handling each error separately.

11 daysmm/mlock: use the IRQ-safe accessor for NR_MLOCK in __munlock_folio()Shakeel Butt
NR_MLOCK is updated from interrupt context. __free_pages_prepare() clears a stray PG_mlocked and adjusts NR_MLOCK, and a folio can reach it with the flag still set from a bio completion handler: __free_pages_ok+0x6af/0x7a0 <IRQ> __bio_release_pages+0xde/0x260 __iomap_dio_bio_end_io+0x16e/0x1a0 blk_update_request+0x14b/0x3d0 blk_mq_end_request+0x18/0x30 blk_done_softirq+0x49/0x60 The folio gets there like this. A MAP_SHARED file mapping is mlocked, so its page cache folios carry PG_mlocked, and an O_DIRECT write sourced from that mapping GUP-pins those same folios. munlock() then runs mlock_vma_pages_range(), which clears VM_LOCKED before walking the page tables to munlock each folio. A concurrent hole punch reaches the folio through the rmap (i_mmap_rwsem, not mmap_lock) and can land inside that window: __folio_remove_rmap() -> munlock_vma_folio() sees VM_LOCKED already clear, so it neither queues the folio on the mlock batch nor takes a reference, and the pte it clears makes the pending mlock_pte_range() walk skip the folio at its !pte_present() check. filemap_remove_folio() then drops the page cache reference, leaving the bio's pin as the last one, released from the completion handler above. So __zone_stat_mod_folio() here needs interrupts disabled, not merely preemption, and __munlock_folio() has a path where they are not: when the folio has already been taken off the LRU by somebody else the function jumps straight to the counter update without taking the lruvec lock. The read-modify-write of the per-CPU NR_MLOCK diff can then be interrupted by the softirq above, and one of the two decrements is lost, leaving Mlocked in /proc/meminfo permanently overstated. Use zone_stat_mod_folio(). mod_zone_state()'s this_cpu_try_cmpxchg() is atomic against a same-CPU interrupt and retries, and on the path where the lruvec lock is held its cost is negligible next to the lock itself. The UNEVICTABLE_PG* events are deliberately left on the __ accessors: they occupy different vm_event_states slots from the UNEVICTABLE_PGCLEARED that __free_pages_prepare() bumps, and nothing updates those two from interrupt context.

11 daysmm: filemap: retain mapped dropbehind foliosWenjie Qi
Fault-around can map ready dropbehind folios without going through the normal page-cache lookup that clears dropbehind. A mapping represents a competing cached user, so retain the folio instead of forcibly unmapping it when writeback completes. For a mapped folio, folio_unmap_invalidate() can call unmap_mapping_folio(), which takes i_mmap_rwsem and may sleep. Retaining mapped folios avoids this path when folio_end_dropbehind() runs in non-preemptible task context. Tal was able to trigger a sleeping-in-atomic warning due to this [1]. Unmapped dropbehind folios continue through the existing invalidation path.

11 daysmemcg: avoid charging the root memcg from obj_cgroup_charge_pages()Shakeel Butt
obj_cgroup_charge_pages() resolves the objcg to its memcg and calls try_charge_memcg(), which does not short circuit the root memcg. That memcg can be the root memcg: obj_cgroup_is_root() reflects the memcg the objcg was created for and is never updated, while memcg_reparent_objcgs() does redirect objcg->memcg to the parent on rmdir. An objcg of a dying child of root therefore passes every obj_cgroup_is_root() filter but resolves to the root memcg. Folios keep the objcg they were charged with, so this is easy to reach through zswap: allocate anon memory in a cgroup, move the task out, remove the cgroup, then write to the root cgroup's memory.reclaim. The reclaimed folios are charged through the reparented objcg and end up in refill_stock() with the root memcg: WARNING: mm/memcontrol.c:2198 at refill_stock+0x644/0x940 refill_stock+0x644/0x940 try_charge_memcg+0x12d6/0x1570 __obj_cgroup_charge+0x35/0xf0 obj_cgroup_charge+0x1de/0x210 obj_cgroup_charge_zswap+0x83/0x270 zswap_store+0x1620/0x2000 swap_writeout+0x94c/0x14c0 shrink_folio_list+0x3388/0x52b0 [...] try_to_free_mem_cgroup_pages+0x30d/0x830 user_proactive_reclaim+0x504/0x840 memory_reclaim+0x1f/0x30 Beyond the warning, the charge is asymmetric: obj_cgroup_uncharge_pages() skips refill_stock() for the root memcg, so the root's page counter grows and is never uncharged. It is not user visible, since memory.current is not exposed on the root, but it is a leak. Use try_charge(), which returns early for the root memcg, restoring the symmetry with obj_cgroup_uncharge_pages(). The above sequence was scripted into a standalone reproducer (zswap on, swap on a virtio disk, 512MB of anon memory faulted in inside a child of the root cgroup, the task then migrated to the root cgroup, the child removed, followed by "echo 600M swappiness=max > memory.reclaim" on the root) and run in a CONFIG_DEBUG_VM=y VM. It reproduces the splat on the first zswap store of a reparented folio, with the same call chain as the report. With this patch applied the splat is gone while the zswap store count over the run is unchanged, so the same path is still exercised. cgroup selftests test_zswap, test_kmem and test_memcontrol show no new failures.

11 daysmm, swap: fix SWAP_USAGE_OFFLIST_BIT collision with real usage countNhat Pham
SWAP_USAGE_OFFLIST_BIT is embedded in the si->inuse_pages usage counter, and is meant to sit above any value that counter can reach. However, it is defined from BITS_PER_TYPE(atomic_t), so it is bit 30. On a system with 4 KiB pages the flag collides with the usage count once that count reaches 4 TiB. swap_usage_in_pages() masks bit 30 out, so whenever the real count has that bit set, every caller of it reads 4 TiB low: * /proc/swaps understates Used by 4 TiB. * A raw count of exactly 2^30 masks to zero, so try_to_unuse() takes its "if (!swap_usage_in_pages(si)) goto success;" early exit and swapoff tears the device down while pages are still swapped out. Nothing in the rest of swapoff aborts the teardown, so those pages are lost. Independently of swapoff, the collision also corrupts the counter and the plist. On a device in normal use, a free that leaves bit 30 set in the count makes swap_usage_sub() see the flag where there is only count, and call add_to_avail_list(). It clears the bit with fetch_and(~SWAP_USAGE_OFFLIST_BIT), leaving the stored count 4 TiB below the real one, and calls plist_add() on a device that is already listed, tripping the WARN_ON(!plist_node_empty(node)) in plist_add() and linking the node a second time. Change the definition of SWAP_USAGE_OFFLIST_BIT to be based on atomic_long_t instead. Note that the usage counter field itself is of this same type, so it is still a valid bit.

11 daysmm/mremap: account mm->locked_vm correctly for MREMAP_DONTUNMAPLorenzo Stoakes (ARM)
When a VMA is mremap()'d with MREMAP_DONTUNMAP set, that results in the VMA being copied, but the source VMA not being unmapped. If the VMA is mlock()'d this is a legal operation, though the source VMA has its VMA_LOCKED_BIT cleared. However this is done in dontunmap_complete(), after mm->locked_vm was incremented via vrm_stat_account(), resulting in double-counting. Worse, this is not even corrected when source VMA is unmapped, due to the VMA_LOCKED_BIT flag having been cleared. This all works fine in the usual mremap() case (without MREMAP_DONTUNMAP), as the source VMA is unmapped with VMA_LOCKED_BIT intact, at which time mm->locked_vm is decremented accordingly. Resolve the issue by invoking vrm_stat_account() only after dontunmap_complete() has run. Note that MREMAP_DONTUNMAP requires old_len == new_len, so no need to account for a delta in size in this case. The bug was introduced by commit b714ccb02a76 ("mm/mremap: complete refactor of move_vma()") which incorrectly reordered the accounting and the clearing of the VMA_LOCKED_BIT flag.

11 daysmm/huge_memory: bypass THP tuneables for huge pfnmap mappingsLorenzo Stoakes (ARM)
The sysfs THP tuneables at /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_huge_pages/ rather confusingly only control the behaviour of THP in some instances. They are not applicable to MADV_COLLAPSE operations, nor to DAX mappings. Long-term, THP is predicated upon compaction being able to obtain large folios to populate THP ranges. However, vm_normal_folio() returns NULL for PFN map mappings, thus their reference count is maintained by the driver, not core mm. As a consequence, the folios are not subject to reclaim nor compaction, so are not truly part of the THP mechanism at all. However, since commit 5dd40721f147 ("mm: allow THP orders for PFNMAPs") introduced the ability to establish huge PFN maps, they have been subject to THP tuneables. This is incorrect - if a huge PFN map is available (defined by vma->vm_ops->huge_fault being non-NULL for a VMA_PFNMAP_BIT VMA), then it should be mapped huge upon fault-in. Correct this by explicitly checking for this while ensuring that smaps continues to accurately report THPeligible statistics. While here, abstract the entire file-backed THP check in vma_can_map_huge_file(), with sensible separation of logic into helper functions. Note that drm_gem_shmem_mmap() and panthor_gem_mmap() establish huge PFN maps of shmem folios, however they are marked unevictable in drm_gem_get_pages(), and in any case would fail the reference check in __remove_mapping() even if they weren't. Failing to map huge PFN maps has resulted in significant real-world performance degradation, see links for details.

This is another run of the Coccinelle script for converting kmalloc() family of allocations to kmalloc_obj() via the existing rules in scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci This catches both the set of kmalloc() uses added since the first kmalloc_obj() conversions in v7.0 and adds a large group missed in the first pass due to Coccinelle not interacting well with the cleanup.h scoped_...() family of macros[1]. I worked around this with spatch's "--macro-file" argument to a file with all the scoped_...() macros mapped to Coccinelle's YACFE_ITERATOR[2] as that was the closest viable control flow indicator I could find.

Commit ba7425312607 ("mm, slab: add an optimistic __slab_try_return_freelist()") incorrectly assumed that nobody has freed an object to the slab as long as slab->freelist is NULL and cmpxchg succeeds. However, as reported by Hyunwoo Kim [1], other CPUs might have freed an object to the slab, insert the slab to the partial list, then allocated an object from the slab, and be in the middle of removing the slab from the list under n->list_lock. Since __refill_objects_node() puts the slab back on pc.slabs outside n->list_lock, it might insert the slab into that list while the slab is concurrently being removed from n->partial. This led to a list corruption [1]: list_add corruption. next->prev should be prev (ffff888100000248), but was dead000000000122. (next=ffffea000416e410). kernel BUG at lib/list_debug.c:29!

Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception This is a classic ABA problem where cmpxchg succeeds but the state has changed since __refill_objects_node() took the freelist from the slab. As Vlastimil Babka mentioned [2], it should be rare to return more than one slab (due to the racy read of slab->counters in get_partial_node_bulk()). Therefore, instead of introducing additional complexity, acquire and release n->list_lock twice in the worst case. Return the slab directly to the partial list and hold n->list_lock across the cmpxchg and add_partial(). This is similar to the initial version of commit ba7425312607 [3]. This is enough to avoid the race as the list manipulation is serialized by n->list_lock. While at it, bring back unlikely() hint now that the condition is unlikely.

12 daysmm/slab: disallow kfree_rcu_sheaf() on PREEMPT_RT againVlastimil Babka (SUSE)
This partially reverts commit 2a8bb29ec9b2 ("mm/slab: allow kfree_rcu_sheaf() on PREEMPT_RT"). It was based on the assumption that local_trylock() is safe on PREEMPT_RT from any context. However kvfree_rcu() is also called by set_cpus_allowed_force() with task_struct::pi_lock acquired and there it's not safe, as syzbot has reported. For the immediate fix, skip kfree_rcu_sheaf() on PREEMPT_RT again from kvfree_call_rcu(). In theory, kfree_rcu_nolock() would have the same problem when called from under pi_lock on PREEMPT_RT but that can be addressed if such a caller is proposed.

13 daysmm/secretmem: properly account locked pagesLorenzo Stoakes (ARM)
secretmem accounts folios by treating memory as if it were mlock()'d and thus limited by the RLIMIT_MEMLOCK limit. However the folios are unevictable and remain so until the inode is evicted, eliminating usual mlock() semantics - mapping folios then unmapping them does not clear their unevictable state, since it depends on AS_UNEVICTABLE, not PG_mlocked. A user can therefore easily work around the RLIMIT_MEMLOCK limit - simply map then unmap and VmLck no longer counts the secretmem range. Worse, folios are not accounted in the process's RSS, meaning the OOM killer won't know to kill the process. Repeatedly mapping/unmapping (or forking) can then result in the consumption of all available system memory with unevictable folios and cause system instability. A secretmem fd can be passed between processes and over fork so a per-process limit simply does not make sense, so follow the precedent set by io_uring, perf, skbuff, iommufd and xdp by tracking the number of locked pages in user_struct->locked_vm. Since the scope tracked is actually inode lifetime, the RLIMIT_MEMLOCK applies per-user not per-process, so it doesn't make sense to bypass for users with CAP_IPC_LOCK, therefore remove this bypass. There is simply no reason to carry on marking the mapping as mlock()'d since it's misleading and the lifecycle is now correctly handled, so remove this too. Note that secretmem does not support any form of truncation (including hole punching) and the folios are unreclaimable, so the folios need only be accounted on fault and unaccounted on inode destruction. __secretmem_account_pages() is more or less a duplicate of the code that io_uring etc. use, but since this is a bug fix that needs backporting, defer any de-duplication efforts to a follow-up. test_mlock_limit() asserts mlock_future_ok() on mmap(), however this has been removed, so remove the test altogether for the fix. A new test will be sent separately for upstream.

13 daysmm/mremap: reset unfaulted VMA page offset for MREMAP_DONTUNMAPLorenzo Stoakes (ARM)
Uniquely an mremap() invocation using the MREMAP_DONTUNMAP flag can reset a faulted VMA into an unfaulted one. It does so after the page tables have been moved to the copied VMA with MREMAP_DONTUNMAP leaving the old VMA in place which is naturally unfaulted as the page tables it had are no longer present. However, in doing so, it violates the invariant that the anonymous page offset of an unfaulted VMA is vma->vm_start >> PAGE_SHIFT. This is because a VMA may have been faulted in, mremap()'d (causing a delta between its page offset and vma->vm_start >> PAGE_SHIFT), and then mremap()'d again with MREMAP_DONTUNMAP resulting in the unfaulting. This condition is a violation of a fundamental assumption in mm, but now also triggers an assert in assert_sane_pgoff() which explicitly checks for this condition. Correct it by resetting the VMA's page offset at the point of completing the MREMAP_DONTUNMAP operation.

2026-09-01mm/hugetlb: fix missing migratable flag on same-node hugetlb migrationWupeng Ma
Commit ba23f58de896 ("mm/migrate: don't call folio_putback_active_hugetlb() on dst hugetlb folio") moved setting of the migratable flag and active-list placement from folio_putback_active_hugetlb(dst) into move_hugetlb_state(), so that the freshly allocated destination folio is handled where allocation is known to have succeeded. Unfortunately, the new code was appended after the existing temporary-folio block in move_hugetlb_state(), which contains an early return added earlier by commit 5af1ab1d24e08 ("mm/hugetlb: optimize the surplus state transfer code in move_hugetlb_state()"): if (folio_test_hugetlb_temporary(new_folio)) { ... if (new_nid == old_nid) return; <-- skips the new code ... } /* added by ba23f58 */ folio_set_hugetlb_migratable(new_folio); list_move_tail(&new_folio->lru, ...&h->hugepage_activelist); When the destination folio is temporary (i.e. the hugetlb pool was exhausted and the migration callback fell back to alloc_migrate_hugetlb_folio()) and the migration does not cross a node -- the common case, and always true on a single-NUMA system -- move_hugetlb_state() returns before setting the migratable flag or adding the new folio to the active list. The destination folio is then installed in the page table but cannot be isolated afterwards, since folio_isolate_hugetlb() rejects folios without the migratable flag; a subsequent soft-offline, hard-offline or memory-hotplug offline of that folio fails with -EBUSY. This was reproduced on a single-NUMA arm64 VM: a second MADV_SOFT_OFFLINE on an already-migrated hugetlb page returned EBUSY and logged "hugepage isolation failed". Keep the surplus adjustment, which is the only part that depends on the node crossing, guarded by `if (new_nid != old_nid)', while making the migratable flag and active-list placement unconditional. This preserves the cleanup intent of ba23f58 and closes the early-return hole.

2026-09-01mm/mempolicy: fix sleeping allocation in alloc_pages_bulk_weighted_interleave()Eric Dumazet
syzbot reported a sleeping function called from invalid context splat in bucket_table_alloc(). When rhashtable_insert_slow() rehashes the table under rcu_read_lock(), it calls bucket_table_alloc(..., GFP_ATOMIC | __GFP_NOWARN). If the bucket table allocation uses vmalloc, __vmalloc_node_range_noprof() invokes vm_area_alloc_pages() -> alloc_pages_bulk_mempolicy_noprof() with the passed GFP_ATOMIC flags. If the current task has an MPOL_WEIGHTED_INTERLEAVE mempolicy, alloc_pages_bulk_weighted_interleave() is called and currently hardcodes GFP_KERNEL when allocating the temporary weights array, triggering a might_alloc() splat in atomic/RCU contexts. Pass the gfp flags (masked with GFP_RECLAIM_MASK to strip page-allocator zone modifiers like __GFP_HIGHMEM) received by alloc_pages_bulk_weighted_interleave() to kmalloc() instead of hardcoding GFP_KERNEL. Since the weights buffer is immediately initialized in full, kmalloc() is sufficient.

2026-09-01mm/huge_memory: transfer the pmd dirty bit to the folio on zapUsama Arif
zap_huge_pmd_folio() propagates the pmd young bit to the folio for the file case, but not the dirty bit. The pte path does propagate it, in zap_present_folio_ptes() and so does the pmd split path, in __split_huge_pmd_locked(). For most file mappings the omission is harmless, because writing to a shared file mapping goes through page_mkwrite(), which dirties the folio. tmpfs is different: it has no page_mkwrite(), and vma_wants_writenotify() is false for it, so a *read* fault on a MAP_SHARED tmpfs mapping installs a writable pmd via do_read_fault(). do_read_fault() does not call fault_dirty_shared_page(), so subsequent stores through that mapping set only the hardware dirty bit in the pmd and never call folio_mark_dirty(). A shmem folio allocated by a fault is marked uptodate but not dirty (see the clear: block in shmem_get_folio_gfp()), so PG_dirty is never set at all. Unmapping such a folio - munmap(), or exit_mmap() when the process dies - then loses the only record that it was written, because zap_huge_pmd() drops the pmd without transferring the dirty bit. Reclaim afterwards sees a clean shmem folio: the whole swap-out block in shrink_folio_list() is inside "if (folio_test_dirty(folio))", so pageout() is skipped and the folio falls into __remove_mapping(). There, folio_is_file_lru() is false for a swapbacked folio, so no shadow entry is created and __filemap_remove_folio(folio, NULL) simply empties the i_pages slot. The data is freed without ever being written to swap, and the next fault on that index returns a freshly zeroed folio. This is silent data loss for any process that keeps state in a MAP_SHARED tmpfs segment across an unmap - for example a cache handed from one process generation to the next through /dev/shm. It requires the folio to be PMD-mapped, so it only shows up once shmem THP is enabled (which is what we did in Meta fleet and started noticing crashes); with THP off the pte path transfers the dirty bit correctly. It also only becomes visible when swap is enabled, because with no swap device shmem folios (which are on the anon LRU) are not scanned by reclaim at all, so the clean folio is never dropped. Reproduced on x86_64 with a tmpfs mounted huge=within_size: read-fault a 2MB-backed region, write a known pattern through the resulting mapping, munmap, force reclaim of the cgroup, then re-map and read back. Without this patch the region reads back as zeros and vmstat shows zswpout 0 - the data was discarded rather than swapped. With this patch the region reads back correctly and the pages are swapped out as expected. With huge=never, or when the first touch is a write, the test passes either way.

2026-09-01mm: fix incorrect vm_flags usage when checking allowable orders for tmpfsBaolin Wang
Lance reported that when nothing else causes the mm to be considered for khugepaged collapse, an MADV_HUGEPAGE-advised tmpfs VMA alone does not trigger scanning. After commit 6beeab870e70 ("mm: shmem: move shmem_huge_global_enabled() into shmem_allowable_huge_orders()"), the shmem/tmpfs allowable order check reads vma->flags directly. However, when MADV_HUGEPAGE is handled, khugepaged_enter_vma() is called before the VMA's flags have been updated, so the check uses stale flags and incorrectly rejects the VMA for collapse. As a result, khugepaged does not collapse the tmpfs file into PMD order in time. Fix this by calling khugepaged_enter_vma() with the new VMA flags in madvise_update_vma(). Meanwhile we can remove the khugepaged_enter_vma() in hugepage_madvise().

Do not proceed with a compound folio if its page-granular representation does not fit entirely in the remaining PFN array. If this happens, drop any reference and lock acquired for the folio, clear the remaining entries, and stop collecting.

2026-09-01mm/hugetlb_cgroup: call page_counter_set_max() outside VM_BUG_ON()Narek Jilavyan
hugetlb_cgroup_css_alloc() rounds the counter limit down to a multiple of the huge page size and then applies it inside an assertion: VM_BUG_ON(page_counter_set_max(fault, limit)); VM_BUG_ON(page_counter_set_max(rsvd, limit)); With CONFIG_DEBUG_VM=n, VM_BUG_ON(cond) is BUILD_BUG_ON_INVALID(cond), i.e. ((void)(sizeof((__force long)(cond)))), whose operand is never evaluated. page_counter_set_max() is not a predicate - it performs xchg(&counter->max, nr_pages) - so on every non-debug kernel the limit is never applied and the counters keep page_counter_init()'s PAGE_COUNTER_MAX. That is user-visible, because hugetlb_cgroup_read_u64_max() recomputes the same rounded value and uses equality as its "unlimited" sentinel. PAGE_COUNTER_MAX is LONG_MAX / PAGE_SIZE = 2251799813685247, which is odd, so round_down() really does change it and the two sides disagree. With CONFIG_DEBUG_VM=n: $ cat /sys/fs/cgroup/t/hugetlb.2MB.max 9223372036854771712 and with this patch: $ cat /sys/fs/cgroup/t/hugetlb.2MB.max max A debug option should not change cgroup output. Call the function, then assert the result, as v6.12 did.

2026-09-01memcg: make the v1 soft limit knob inertShakeel Butt
The v1 soft limit has been deprecated since v6.12 and nobody has reported depending on it. Start the removal by decoupling the interface from the implementation: keep memory.soft_limit_in_bytes, but ignore writes to it and always report the maximum value on read similar to what memory.kmem.limit_in_bytes already does. Writes are still parsed, so malformed input keeps returning -EINVAL. The knob now also behaves the same everywhere: it used to return -EOPNOTSUPP on PREEMPT_RT, where soft limit reclaim has always been disabled. This also fixes the syzbot report linked below. Soft limit reclaim is the only caller that runs shrink_lruvec() from kswapd against a specific memcg, so it is the only way to reach lru_gen_shrink_lruvec() and in turn set_mm_walk(), which warns when called from kswapd.

2026-09-01mm/hugetlb_cma: fix null nodemask dereference in hugetlb_cma_alloc_frozen_folioSourav Panda
alloc_buddy_hugetlb_folio_with_mpol() can pass a NULL nodemask to alloc_fresh_hugetlb_folio() as a fallback to allocate from all nodes. If order is gigantic, alloc_fresh_hugetlb_folio() propagates the NULL nodemask down to hugetlb_cma_alloc_frozen_folio() via alloc_gigantic_frozen_folio(). Additionally, hugetlb_cma_alloc_frozen_folio() previously attempted allocation on hugetlb_cma[nid] without verifying if nid is included in the caller's nodemask. Adding a node_isset(nid, *nodemask) check ensures the initial preferred node allocation honors the memory policy / nodemask. However, hugetlb_cma_alloc_frozen_folio() dereferences the nodemask in node_isset(nid, *nodemask) and for_each_node_mask(node, *nodemask), leading to a null pointer dereference kernel panic when nodemask is NULL. Fix this by checking if nodemask is NULL in hugetlb_cma_alloc_frozen_folio() and defaulting it to cpuset_current_mems_allowed. Enclose the allocation attempts within the cpuset seqcount retry loop so that if the cpuset changes concurrently during allocation, the attempts are retried using the updated nodemask. This ensures that the initial node check and fallback loop safely honor the task's cpuset without violating cpuset constraints or causing NULL pointer dereferences or unexpected allocation failures. From a userspace perspective, this bug allows an unprivileged user to crash the kernel (trigger a panic) by requesting a gigantic hugepage allocation with MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY on a system where CMA is only configured on a subset of NUMA nodes. This can be reproduced by booting a VM with two NUMA nodes, restricting CMA to Node 1 (e.g., hugetlb_cma=1:1G default_hugepagesz=1G hugepagesz=1G hugepages=0), and running a program that allocates a 1GB hugepage area without reserving, restricts allocation to Node 0 using mbind() with MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY, and triggers a page fault: void *ptr = mmap(NULL, 1UL << 30, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_HUGETLB | MAP_HUGE_1GB | MAP_NORESERVE, -1, 0); unsigned long nodemask = 1; /* Node 0 */ mbind(ptr, 1UL << 30, MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY, &nodemask, sizeof(nodemask) * 8, 0); memset(ptr, 0, 1UL << 30); /* Trigger fault */ This results in a NULL pointer dereference: BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000 #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page Oops: Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP NOPTI RIP: 0010:hugetlb_cma_alloc_frozen_folio+0x75/0x120 Call Trace: <TASK> only_alloc_fresh_hugetlb_folio.isra.0+0x2c/0x160 alloc_surplus_hugetlb_folio+0x6d/0x100 alloc_hugetlb_folio+0x3c5/0x660 hugetlb_no_page+0x3d9/0x650 Link: https://lore.kernel.org/20260811052909.475635-1-souravpanda@google.com Fixes: eb02f14c4a2b ("mm/hugetlb: allow overcommitting gigantic hugepages") Signed-off-by: Sourav Panda <souravpanda@google.com> Reviewed-by: Muchun Song <muchun.song@linux.dev> Reviewed-by: Anshuman Khandual <anshuman.khandual@arm.com> Cc: David Hildenbrand <david@kernel.org> Cc: Frank van der Linden <fvdl@google.com> Cc: Greg Thelen <gthelen@google.com> Cc: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Cc: Kefeng Wang <wangkefeng.wang@huawei.com> Cc: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com> Cc: Oscar Salvador <osalvador@suse.de> Cc: Rik van Riel <riel@surriel.com> Cc: SeongJae Park <sj@kernel.org> Cc: Shakeel Butt <shakeel.butt@linux.dev> Cc: Suren Baghdasaryan <surenb@google.com> Cc: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>

2026-08-24memcg: move LRU size accounting on reparenting instead of copying itShakeel Butt
When a memory cgroup is offlined its LRU folios are reparented to the parent. lruvec_reparent_lru() splices the child's lists into the parent's and credits the parent with the child's per-zone lru_zone_size[], but never clears the child's copy, so the size is copied rather than moved. lru_gen_reparent_memcg() does the same for MGLRU. The parent is left correct, credited with exactly the folios it took over. The stale value sits on the child and nothing will correct it: folio->memcg_data now resolves to the parent, so every later update_lru_size() for those folios goes there. Dying cgroups are not freed immediately and mem_cgroup_iter() still walks them, so shrink_lruvec() keeps being called on them. get_scan_count() reads the phantom counter through lruvec_lru_size() and the scan loop then grinds through nr[] in SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX steps against an empty list, for as long as the dead cgroup lives. Under MGLRU the MGLRU scanner runs instead, but count_shadow_nodes() sums all of NR_LRU_LISTS through lruvec_lru_size() and over-budgets the shadow node limit just the same. On one 251 GiB host a sweep of every mz->lru_zone_size[] found 380 counters describing folios on no list at all: 124777314 pages, 476 GiB, 1.89x the machine's RAM, across 57 cgroups. All were on memcgs with CSS_DYING set and CSS_ONLINE clear, and parent/child pairs reported byte-identical sizes. LRU_UNEVICTABLE needs its size moved too. Its list is deliberately not spliced because lruvec_init() poisons the head - the unevictable LRU is imaginary and folios are never threaded on it - but the size is kept by lruvec_add_folio()/lruvec_del_folio() and those folios account to the parent from here on. This depends on commit bf4ade7dbd76 ("memcg: keep folio's objcg same as its node") and must not be backported ahead of it. Without that invariant a folio's objcg can belong to another node, so a folio already spliced onto the parent's list can still resolve to the child's lruvec until the objcg's node is reparented in a later iteration of memcg_reparent_objcgs(); clearing the child's counter early then lets lruvec_del_folio() underflow it and trip the WARN_ONCE()/VM_BUG_ON() in mem_cgroup_update_lru_size().

2026-08-24mm: memcg: release the css reference when a stock slot emptiesSong Hu
consume_stock() can drive a stock slot's nr_pages to zero while its cached[] pointer stays set, so the slot keeps pinning the css reference that refill_stock() took. The offlining drain only flushes slots with cached pages, so the reference is never released unless the slot happens to be displaced by an unrelated charge or by CPU hotplug, and the memcg lingers in the dying state - up to NR_MEMCG_STOCK (7) of them per CPU under container churn. Keeping the slot populated past the last page only saves a css_get()/css_put() pair on the next charge of the same memcg, and costs more than that: the offlining drain has to know about empty slots, and refill_stock() cannot reuse them either, so a charge under a different memcg evicts a live batch through the drain_idx rotation instead. Drop the reference in consume_stock() when the slot empties. Empty slots stop existing, so is_memcg_drain_needed() and the drain path stay as they are, and refill_stock() reuses emptied slots directly. The cost is one refcount pair per emptied slot, at most once per MEMCG_CHARGE_BATCH pages.

2026-08-24mm/migrate_device: fix cache flush when replacing huge zero PMDHui Su
migrate_vma_insert_huge_pmd_page() calls flush_cache_page() before replacing an existing huge zero PMD. However, the third argument to flush_cache_page() is a PFN, while addr + HPAGE_PMD_SIZE is an end virtual address. More importantly, the mapping being invalidated is PMD-sized rather than PAGE_SIZE-sized. Flush the whole PMD range with flush_cache_range(), matching other huge PMD invalidation paths. There is no userspace-visible effect today. The architectures that currently enable ARCH_ENABLE_THP_MIGRATION use no-op implementations of flush_cache_page()/flush_cache_range(). 32-bit ARM has non-trivial implementations, but does not enable ARCH_ENABLE_THP_MIGRATION. So this appears to be a latent API misuse rather than a currently observable bug, and I don't think a stable backport is necessary.

2026-08-24mm/Kconfig: make MEMORY_FAILURE select MIGRATIONXie Yuanbin
For embedded devices, lacking support for NUMA, memory hotplug/hotremove, CMA and huge pages is a quite common scenario. In this scenario, the demand for contiguous physical memory allocation is very low. To reduce the kernel image size, some devices disable the compaction. However, their SoCs do support DDR ECC, meaning that memory-failure may be needed. Migration is very useful for soft_offline_page() in memory-failure, which may be triggered by correctable memory errors. Most anonymous and file-mapped faulty pages can be migrated to other healthy pages. Currently, MEMORY_FAILURE does not explicitly select MIGRATION. When COMPACTION, MEMORY_HOTREMOVE, NUMA_MIGRATION and CMA are all disabled, MEMORY_FAILURE can be enabled, but MIGRATION cannot be selected.

2026-08-24percpu: drop CONFIG_DEBUG_FORCE_WEAK_PER_CPUTejun Heo
alpha requires percpu variables in modules to be defined as weak so that the compiler generates GOT based external references for them. This puts two extra restrictions on percpu variable definitions. The symbol must be globally unique even when static and a static percpu variable can't be defined inside a function. DEBUG_FORCE_WEAK_PER_CPU exists to give generic code build coverage for these restrictions without building for alpha. MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING defines a static percpu counter at each allocation call site and thus can't be built with weak percpu definitions, so it depends on !DEBUG_FORCE_WEAK_PER_CPU. As allmodconfig enables DEBUG_FORCE_WEAK_PER_CPU, this knocks MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING out of allmodconfig build coverage. allmodconfig coverage for MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING is worth more than build coverage for restrictions which only matter to alpha module builds. Drop DEBUG_FORCE_WEAK_PER_CPU. Restriction violations will now show up only on alpha builds.

2026-08-24mm/mglru: fix and remove redundant unevictable folio handlingKairui Song
sort_folio() has a shortcut for moving folios that are no longer evictable but are still sitting on a generation list. However, this shortcut is buggy. It does not follow the PG_lru usage convention, and it has a more serious issue. Unevictable folios are not threaded on lists[LRU_UNEVICTABLE], so that folio->lru can be reused to hold folio->mlock_count (see the comment in lruvec_init()). Hence lruvec_add_folio() skips the list_add() for them, and every other place that turns a folio unevictable initialises mlock_count explicitly: lru_add() sets it to 0, __mlock_folio() and __mlock_new_folio() set it to !!folio_test_mlocked(folio). sort_folio() sets nothing, and the lru_gen_del_folio() right above it may have already poisoned folio->lru via list_del(), so mlock_count ends up aliasing LIST_POISON2, which reads as 0x122, i.e. 290. The result is user visible. On munlock, __munlock_folio() decrements that bogus count, finds it still non-zero and bails out before clearing PG_mlocked, so the folio remains unevictable and the Mlocked accounting stays inflated until the folio is freed. The shortcut also touches the LRU flags in the wrong order. It calls lru_gen_del_folio() while PG_lru is still set, so a concurrent folio_test_clear_lru() (e.g. compaction, folio_isolate_lru()) can succeed on a folio that has already been taken off the generation list, which may lead to unexpected behavior. So fix it by isolating them as common folios and letting the generic shrink path cull them. This matches the classical LRU behavior, and there should be no visible effect on the generic eviction or isolation behavior. There is no performance concern either, such a folio goes through this once, and then it is off the generation lists for good.

2026-08-24mm/khugepaged: refactor per-scan state clearing into ↵Nico Pache (Red Hat)
collapse_control_init_scan() Patch series "mm/khugepaged: several cleanups", v4. The following changes stem from a number of reviews during my khugepaged mTHP support series [1]. Some of these are minor code cleanups, issues or reviews that we decided to deferred to a followup series, or in the case of the more major patch of the series, changes [2] Lance Yang attempted while my series was in-flight and we decided to wait till later to try. The first 3 patches introduce helper functions to increase code reuse and readability. This includes a per-scan state clearing function, extracting the young page check into a helper, and a count_collapse_event() function to reduce a repetative pattern used across mTHP collapse. The 4th patch was the byproduct of me throwing Claude at all the comments in khugepaged verifying and looking for any outdated info. The 5th patch is based on Lance Yang's commit series [2] trying to extract the PTE state checking into a helper function. This required a bit of rewriting due to differences after mTHP collapse was introduced. I also took into account the changes requested during his patches review cycle. The remaining 2 patches were review points during my mTHP series that we agreed can be deferred to a later series. Thank you to those whos reviews and work I leveraged to achieve these cleanups. This patch (of 6): Extract the repeated clearing of node_load, alloc_nmask, and mthp_present_ptes into a helper to reduce duplication in collapse_scan_pmd() and collapse_scan_file(). Althought file scans do not current use the bitmap, they will in the future, and clearing it now is harmless.

2026-08-24mm/mglru: fix young counter undercount for large foliosHui Zhu
lru_gen_look_around() feeds its local 'young' counter into suitable_to_scan(), which decides whether the current PMD is added to the bloom filter and checked again on the next aging round. The folio triggering the look-around is processed at function entry: test_and_clear_young_ptes_notify() clears the accessed bits of the nr PTEs it maps, and the function bails out if none of them is young. The loop that follows therefore never recounts this folio, since its accessed bits are already cleared. Every other young folio the loop finds is accounted as a batch (young += nr), where nr is the number of consecutive PTEs it maps. The triggering folio, however, still contributes a fixed young = 1 regardless of its size -- a leftover from before PTE batching. A large triggering folio is thus accounted inconsistently with the rest of the window. Initialize young to nr so the triggering folio is accounted the same way as any other young folio batch in the loop. Note this is a deliberate overestimate, not a measured value. The test-and-clear helper only reports whether any of the nr PTEs is young, not how many were accessed, so the true number of accessed PTEs in a large folio is unknown and can be smaller than nr. Counting the full batch is intentional: the mm core tracks accessed/dirty state per folio, not per page, so a per-page count is neither obtainable nor meaningful. The only consumer is suitable_to_scan(), and the bloom filter it feeds tolerates error. Overestimating is also the safe direction: at worst a PMD that saw little access is rescanned, whereas underestimating could skip rescanning a PMD whose folios are still hot and reclaim them incorrectly. (nr here is the PTE batch size, not necessarily folio_nr_pages().)

2026-08-24kasan: fix quarantine_size accounting during cache removalHui Su
quarantine_size tracks the total number of bytes stored in global_quarantine[]. It is incremented when per-CPU quarantine objects are moved into the global quarantine and decremented when a global batch is evicted by kasan_quarantine_reduce(). kasan_quarantine_remove_cache() also removes objects from the global quarantine. qlist_move_cache() rebuilds the source batch and updates its .bytes field, but quarantine_size is not adjusted accordingly. As a result, quarantine_size remains over-counted by the size of the removed objects. The stale accounting accumulates across cache removals. Once the inflated value exceeds quarantine_max_size, kasan_quarantine_reduce() can evict a batch even though the actual number of bytes in global_quarantine[] is still below quarantine_max_size, shortening the quarantine window. Fix the accounting by recording each batch's size before qlist_move_cache() and subtracting the number of bytes actually removed from quarantine_size while holding quarantine_lock. A KUnit reproducer used during testing observed the over-count grow by 4698864 bytes after one kasan_quarantine_remove_cache() call with the fix reverted. With this change applied, the over-count did not grow.

For this refactor swap_fs_submit into a swap_fs_prepare_rw helper that initializes the iov_iter on the callers stack so that file systems can call it directly, and use that to initialize file system specific ops in the NFS and SMB clients, which then get passed to swap_fs_activate.
