We already track and export anon_thp per cgroup. We already track file THP and shmem THP per node, so making them per-cgroup is only a matter of switching from node to lruvec counters. All callsites are in places where the pages are charged and locked, so page->memcg is stable.

It is designed to be a lot more straight forward and easier to follow than the current text about this (Documentation/admin-guide/reporting-bugs.rst); at the same time the new text should be more helpful for people unfamiliar with the topic, as it provides a lot more details, too. The main work on the text is done, but some polishing is still needed. The text also needs to be reviewed by more people and a few issues still might need some discussion. To make these tasks easier, it was decided ([1]) to add this document to the kernel sources in parallel to the existing text; the latter will be removed once this text is considered good enough(tm). This document is quite long and provides a lot of details, but was carefully crafted to make sure it's can also serve people that are in a hurry. That's mainly achieved by having a TDLR and a step-by-step guide, which should be good enough for quite a lot of people. Everybody that wants or need more explanations can find them in a reference section, which describes all the needed steps in detail. Thanks to this structure the text can work for kernel developers that just need to look something up, experienced FLOSS contributors that are unfamiliar with the kernel's bug reporting workflow, and users reporting something upstream for the first time. The text is thus a bit like the kernel itself, which works well for embedded machines, a typical desktop PC, cloud servers, and HPC. The document was written in the hope it will improve the quality of the bug reports, especially those that come from people unfamiliar with how Linux kernel development works. Sadly quite a few reports from this group are currently of poor quality and/or get submitted to the wrong place. Part of the problem is the old reporting-bugs document, as it makes its essence hard to grasp; it's and also inaccurate and slightly outdated in a few spots. Due to this quite a few valid reports are ignored in the end, which is annoying for those that compiled them and bad for the kernel's quality. The document near the top points out that it's still unfinished, but nevertheless ready for consumption. Those few areas in the text that might need some further discussion contain a note pointing this out. Besides lack of review from core developers there is only one major issue left: the section 'Decode failure message' is known to be outdated: it's waiting for someone familiar with the topic to write something up or give at least provide some hints and pointers what to write there. The new document is dual-licensed under GPL-2.0+ or CC-BY-4.0. The latter is way more liberal and makes it attractive to use this text as a base when writing about this topic on websites or in books. This hopefully increases the chances that such texts are accurate and stick to official way of doing things.

This has been long in the making, we were one revision number short of 42. :) Intel SGX is new hardware functionality that can be used by applications to populate protected regions of user code and data called enclaves. Once activated, the new hardware protects enclave code and data from outside access and modification. Enclaves provide a place to store secrets and process data with those secrets. SGX has been used, for example, to decrypt video without exposing the decryption keys to nosy debuggers that might be used to subvert DRM. Software has generally been rewritten specifically to run in enclaves, but there are also projects that try to run limited unmodified software in enclaves. Most of the functionality is concentrated into arch/x86/kernel/cpu/sgx/ except the addition of a new mprotect() hook to control enclave page permissions and support for vDSO exceptions fixup which will is used by SGX enclaves.

From Daniel's cover letter: IBM Power9 processors can speculatively operate on data in the L1 cache before it has been completely validated, via a way-prediction mechanism. It is not possible for an attacker to determine the contents of impermissible memory using this method, since these systems implement a combination of hardware and software security measures to prevent scenarios where protected data could be leaked. However these measures don't address the scenario where an attacker induces the operating system to speculatively execute instructions using data that the attacker controls. This can be used for example to speculatively bypass "kernel user access prevention" techniques, as discovered by Anthony Steinhauser of Google's Safeside Project. This is not an attack by itself, but there is a possibility it could be used in conjunction with side-channels or other weaknesses in the privileged code to construct an attack. This issue can be mitigated by flushing the L1 cache between privilege boundaries of concern. This patch series flushes the L1 cache on kernel entry (patch 2) and after the kernel performs any user accesses (patch 3). It also adds a self-test and performs some related cleanups" * tag 'powerpc-cve-2020-4788' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/powerpc/linux: powerpc/64s: rename pnv|pseries_setup_rfi_flush to _setup_security_mitigations selftests/powerpc: refactor entry and rfi_flush tests selftests/powerpc: entry flush test powerpc: Only include kup-radix.h for 64-bit Book3S powerpc/64s: flush L1D after user accesses powerpc/64s: flush L1D on kernel entry selftests/powerpc: rfi_flush: disable entry flush if present

As this is done in irq handling a crash might be the result. In order to avoid that, delay further inter-domain events after some time in xen_evtchn_do_upcall() by forcing eoi processing into a worker on the same cpu, thus inhibiting new events coming in. The time after which eoi processing is to be delayed is configurable via a new module parameter "event_loop_timeout" which specifies the maximum event loop time in jiffies (default: 2, the value was chosen after some tests showing that a value of 2 was the lowest with an only slight drop of dom0 network throughput while multiple guests performed an event storm). How long eoi processing will be delayed can be specified via another parameter "event_eoi_delay" (again in jiffies, default 10, again the value was chosen after testing with different delay values).

We are formally announcing the deprecation of the V4 filesystem format in 2030. All users must upgrade to the V5 format, which contains design improvements that greatly strengthen metadata validation, supports reflink and online fsck, and is the intended vehicle for handling timestamps past 2038. We're also deprecating the old Irix behavioral tweaks in September 2025. Coming along for the ride are two design changes to the deferred metadata ops subsystem. One of the improvements is to retain correct logical ordering of tasks and subtasks, which is a more logical design for upper layers of XFS and will become necessary when we add atomic file range swaps and commits. The second improvement to deferred ops improves the scalability of the log by helping the log tail to move forward during long-running operations. This reduces log contention when there are a large number of threads trying to run transactions. In addition to that, this fixes numerous small bugs in log recovery; refactors logical intent log item recovery to remove the last remaining place in XFS where we could have nested transactions; fixes a couple of ways that intent log item recovery could fail in ways that wouldn't have happened in the regular commit paths; fixes a deadlock vector in the GETFSMAP implementation (which improves its performance by 20%); and fixes serious bugs in the realtime growfs, fallocate, and bitmap handling code. Summary: - Deprecate the V4 filesystem format, some disused mount options, and some legacy sysctl knobs now that we can support dates into the 25th century. Note that removal of V4 support will not happen until the early 2030s. - Fix some probles with inode realtime flag propagation. - Fix some buffer handling issues when growing a rt filesystem. - Fix a problem where a BMAP_REMAP unmap call would free rt extents even though the purpose of BMAP_REMAP is to avoid freeing the blocks. - Strengthen the dabtree online scrubber to check hash values on child dabtree blocks. - Actually log new intent items created as part of recovering log intent items. - Fix a bug where quotas weren't attached to an inode undergoing bmap intent item recovery. - Fix a buffer overrun problem with specially crafted log buffer headers. - Various cleanups to type usage and slightly inaccurate comments. - More cleanups to the xattr, log, and quota code. - Don't run the (slower) shared-rmap operations on attr fork mappings. - Fix a bug where we failed to check the LSN of finobt blocks during replay and could therefore overwrite newer data with older data. - Clean up the ugly nested transaction mess that log recovery uses to stage intent item recovery in the correct order by creating a proper data structure to capture recovered chains. - Use the capture structure to resume intent item chains with the same log space and block reservations as when they were captured. - Fix a UAF bug in bmap intent item recovery where we failed to maintain our reference to the incore inode if the bmap operation needed to relog itself to continue. - Rearrange the defer ops mechanism to finish newly created subtasks of a parent task before moving on to the next parent task. - Automatically relog intent items in deferred ops chains if doing so would help us avoid pinning the log tail. This will help fix some log scaling problems now and will facilitate atomic file updates later. - Fix a deadlock in the GETFSMAP implementation by using an internal memory buffer to reduce indirect calls and copies to userspace, thereby improving its performance by ~20%. - Fix various problems when calling growfs on a realtime volume would not fully update the filesystem metadata. - Fix broken Kconfig asking about deprecated XFS when XFS is disabled" * tag 'xfs-5.10-merge-5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/xfs/xfs-linux: (48 commits) xfs: fix Kconfig asking about XFS_SUPPORT_V4 when XFS_FS=n xfs: fix high key handling in the rt allocator's query_range function xfs: annotate grabbing the realtime bitmap/summary locks in growfs xfs: make xfs_growfs_rt update secondary superblocks xfs: fix realtime bitmap/summary file truncation when growing rt volume xfs: fix the indent in xfs_trans_mod_dquot xfs: do the ASSERT for the arguments O_{u,g,p}dqpp xfs: fix deadlock and streamline xfs_getfsmap performance xfs: limit entries returned when counting fsmap records xfs: only relog deferred intent items if free space in the log gets low xfs: expose the log push threshold xfs: periodically relog deferred intent items xfs: change the order in which child and parent defer ops are finished xfs: fix an incore inode UAF in xfs_bui_recover xfs: clean up xfs_bui_item_recover iget/trans_alloc/ilock ordering xfs: clean up bmap intent item recovery checking xfs: xfs_defer_capture should absorb remaining transaction reservation xfs: xfs_defer_capture should absorb remaining block reservations xfs: proper replay of deferred ops queued during log recovery xfs: remove XFS_LI_RECOVERED ...

In addition, the format does not support dates past 2038 and will not be upgraded to do so. We should start the process of retiring the old format to close off attack surfaces and to encourage users to migrate onto V5. Therefore, make XFS V4 support a configurable option. For the first period it will be default Y in case some distributors want to withdraw support early; for the second period it will be default N so that anyone who wishes to continue support can do so; and after that, support will be removed from the kernel.
