2026-01-26mm/zone_device: reinitialize large zone device private foliosMatthew Brost
Reinitialize metadata for large zone device private folios in zone_device_page_init prior to creating a higher-order zone device private folio. This step is necessary when the folio's order changes dynamically between zone_device_page_init calls to avoid building a corrupt folio. As part of the metadata reinitialization, the dev_pagemap must be passed in from the caller because the pgmap stored in the folio page may have been overwritten with a compound head. Without this fix, individual pages could have invalid pgmap fields and flags (with PG_locked being notably problematic) due to prior different order allocations, which can, and will, result in kernel crashes.

2026-01-26flex_proportions: make fprop_new_period() hardirq safeJan Kara
Bernd has reported a lockdep splat from flexible proportions code that is essentially complaining about the following race: <timer fires> run_timer_softirq - we are in softirq context call_timer_fn writeout_period fprop_new_period write_seqcount_begin(&p->sequence); <hardirq is raised> ... blk_mq_end_request() blk_update_request() ext4_end_bio() folio_end_writeback() __wb_writeout_add() __fprop_add_percpu_max() if (unlikely(max_frac < FPROP_FRAC_BASE)) { fprop_fraction_percpu() seq = read_seqcount_begin(&p->sequence); - sees odd sequence so loops indefinitely Note that a deadlock like this is only possible if the bdi has configured maximum fraction of writeout throughput which is very rare in general but frequent for example for FUSE bdis. To fix this problem we have to make sure write section of the sequence counter is irqsafe.

2026-01-26vdso/gettimeofday: Force inlining of __cvdso_clock_getres_common()Thomas Weißschuh
With CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=y, GCC may decide not to inline __cvdso_clock_getres_common(). This introduces spurious internal function calls in the vDSO fastpath. Furthermore, with automatic stack variable initialization (CONFIG_INIT_STACK_ALL_ZERO or CONFIG_INIT_STACK_ALL_PATTERN) GCC can emit a call to memset() which is not valid in the vDSO. Mark __cvdso_clock_getres_common() as __always_inline to avoid both issues. Paradoxically the inlining even reduces the size of the code: $ ./scripts/bloat-o-meter arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso/vgettimeofday-32.o.before arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso/vgettimeofday-32.o.after add/remove: 0/1 grow/shrink: 1/1 up/down: 52/-148 (-96) Function old new delta __c_kernel_clock_getres_time64 92 144 +52 __c_kernel_clock_getres 136 132 -4 __cvdso_clock_getres_common 144 - -144 Total: Before=2788, After=2692, chg -3.44% With CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_PERFORMANCE=y the functions are always inlined and therefore the behaviour stays the same.

2026-01-20watchdog: softlockup: panic when lockup duration exceeds N thresholdsLi RongQing
The softlockup_panic sysctl is currently a binary option: panic immediately or never panic on soft lockups. Panicking on any soft lockup, regardless of duration, can be overly aggressive for brief stalls that may be caused by legitimate operations. Conversely, never panicking may allow severe system hangs to persist undetected. Extend softlockup_panic to accept an integer threshold, allowing the kernel to panic only when the normalized lockup duration exceeds N watchdog threshold periods. This provides finer-grained control to distinguish between transient delays and persistent system failures. The accepted values are: - 0: Don't panic (unchanged) - 1: Panic when duration >= 1 * threshold (20s default, original behavior) - N > 1: Panic when duration >= N * threshold (e.g., 2 = 40s, 3 = 60s.) The original behavior is preserved for values 0 and 1, maintaining full backward compatibility while allowing systems to tolerate brief lockups while still catching severe, persistent hangs.

2026-01-20kernel.h: drop hex.h and update all hex.h usersRandy Dunlap
Remove <linux/hex.h> from <linux/kernel.h> and update all users/callers of hex.h interfaces to directly #include <linux/hex.h> as part of the process of putting kernel.h on a diet. Removing hex.h from kernel.h means that 36K C source files don't have to pay the price of parsing hex.h for the roughly 120 C source files that need it. This change has been build-tested with allmodconfig on most ARCHes. Also, all users/callers of <linux/hex.h> in the entire source tree have been updated if needed (if not already #included).

2026-01-20oid_registry: allow arbitrary size OIDsJames Bottomley
The current OID registry parser uses 64 bit arithmetic which limits us to supporting 64 bit or smaller OIDs. This isn't usually a problem except that it prevents us from representing the 2.25. prefix OIDs which are the OID representation of UUIDs and have a 128 bit number following the prefix. Rather than import not often used perl arithmetic modules, replace the current perl 64 bit arithmetic with a callout to bc, which is arbitrary precision, for decimal to base 2 conversion, then do pure string operations on the base 2 number.

2026-01-20lib/test_vmalloc.c: minor fixes to test_vmalloc.cAudra Mitchell
If PAGE_SIZE is larger than 4k and if you have a system with a large number of CPUs, this test can require a very large amount of memory leading to oom-killer firing. Given the type of allocation, the kernel won't have anything to kill, causing the system to stall. Add a parameter to the test_vmalloc driver to represent the number of times a percpu object will be allocated. Calculate this in test_vmalloc.sh to be 90% of available memory or the current default of 35000, whichever is smaller.

Note that in addition to the change in the key preparation function and the key struct type itself, the change in the type of the key struct results in aes_encrypt() (which is temporarily a type-generic macro) calling the new encryption function rather than the old one.

2026-01-15lib/crypto: x86/aes: Add AES-NI optimizationEric Biggers
Optimize the AES library with x86 AES-NI instructions. The relevant existing assembly functions, aesni_set_key(), aesni_enc(), and aesni_dec(), are a bit difficult to extract into the library: - They're coupled to the code for the AES modes. - They operate on struct crypto_aes_ctx. The AES library now uses different structs. - They assume the key is 16-byte aligned. The AES library only *prefers* 16-byte alignment; it doesn't require it. Moreover, they're not all that great in the first place: - They use unrolled loops, which isn't a great choice on x86. - They use the 'aeskeygenassist' instruction, which is unnecessary, is slow on Intel CPUs, and forces the loop to be unrolled. - They have special code for AES-192 key expansion, despite that being kind of useless. AES-128 and AES-256 are the ones used in practice. These are small functions anyway. Therefore, I opted to just write replacements of these functions for the library. They address all the above issues.

2026-01-14lib/buildid: use __kernel_read() for sleepable contextShakeel Butt
Prevent a "BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference in filemap_read_folio". For the sleepable context, convert freader to use __kernel_read() instead of direct page cache access via read_cache_folio(). This simplifies the faultable code path by using the standard kernel file reading interface which handles all the complexity of reading file data. At the moment we are not changing the code for non-sleepable context which uses filemap_get_folio() and only succeeds if the target folios are already in memory and up-to-date. The reason is to keep the patch simple and easier to backport to stable kernels. Syzbot repro does not crash the kernel anymore and the selftests run successfully. In the follow up we will make __kernel_read() with IOCB_NOWAIT work for non-sleepable contexts. In addition, I would like to replace the secretmem check with a more generic approach and will add fstest for the buildid code.

The result is that both the AES library and crypto_cipher APIs are now optimized for POWER8, whereas previously only crypto_cipher was (and optimizations weren't enabled by default, which this commit fixes too).

These exports will go away once the AES modes are migrated to the library as well. (Trying to split up the assembly file seemed like much more trouble than it would be worth.) Another challenge with this code is that the POWER8 assembly code uses a custom format for the expanded AES key. Since that code is imported from OpenSSL and is also targeted to POWER8 (rather than POWER9 which has better data movement and byteswap instructions), that is not easily changed. For now I've just kept the custom format. To maintain full correctness, this requires executing some slow fallback code in the case where the usability of VSX changes between key expansion and use. This should be tolerable, as this case shouldn't happen in practice.

These exports will go away once the AES modes are migrated to the library as well. (Trying to split up the assembly files seemed like much more trouble than it would be worth.)

2026-01-12lib/crypto: aes: Introduce improved AES libraryEric Biggers
The kernel's AES library currently has the following issues: - It doesn't take advantage of the architecture-optimized AES code, including the implementations using AES instructions. - It's much slower than even the other software AES implementations: 2-4 times slower than "aes-generic", "aes-arm", and "aes-arm64". - It requires that both the encryption and decryption round keys be computed and cached. This is wasteful for users that need only the forward (encryption) direction of the cipher: the key struct is 484 bytes when only 244 are actually needed. This missed optimization is very common, as many AES modes (e.g. GCM, CFB, CTR, CMAC, and even the tweak key in XTS) use the cipher only in the forward (encryption) direction even when doing decryption. - It doesn't provide the flexibility to customize the prepared key format. The API is defined to do key expansion, and several callers in drivers/crypto/ use it specifically to expand the key. This is an issue when integrating the existing powerpc, s390, and sparc code, which is necessary to provide full parity with the traditional API. To resolve these issues, I'm proposing the following changes: 1. New structs 'aes_key' and 'aes_enckey' are introduced, with corresponding functions aes_preparekey() and aes_prepareenckey(). Generally these structs will include the encryption+decryption round keys and the encryption round keys, respectively. However, the exact format will be under control of the architecture-specific AES code. (The verb "prepare" is chosen over "expand" since key expansion isn't necessarily done. It's also consistent with hmac*_preparekey().) 2. aes_encrypt() and aes_decrypt() will be changed to operate on the new structs instead of struct crypto_aes_ctx. 3. aes_encrypt() and aes_decrypt() will use architecture-optimized code when available, or else fall back to a new generic AES implementation that unifies the existing two fragmented generic AES implementations. The new generic AES implementation uses tables for both SubBytes and MixColumns, making it almost as fast as "aes-generic". However, instead of aes-generic's huge 8192-byte tables per direction, it uses only 1024 bytes for encryption and 1280 bytes for decryption (similar to "aes-arm"). The cost is just some extra rotations. The new generic AES implementation also includes table prefetching, making it have some "constant-time hardening". That's an improvement from aes-generic which has no constant-time hardening. It does slightly regress in constant-time hardening vs. the old lib/crypto/aes.c which had smaller tables, and from aes-fixed-time which disabled IRQs on top of that. But I think this is tolerable. The real solutions for constant-time AES are AES instructions or bit-slicing. The table-based code remains a best-effort fallback for the increasingly-rare case where a real solution is unavailable. 4. crypto_aes_ctx and aes_expandkey() will remain for now, but only for callers that are using them specifically for the AES key expansion (as opposed to en/decrypting data with the AES library). This commit begins the migration process by introducing the new structs and functions, backed by the new generic AES implementation. To allow callers to be incrementally converted, aes_encrypt() and aes_decrypt() are temporarily changed into macros that use a _Generic expression to call either the old functions (which take crypto_aes_ctx) or the new functions (which take the new types). Once all callers have been updated, these macros will go away, the old functions will be removed, and the "_new" suffix will be dropped from the new functions.

Add support for the NH "almost-universal hash function" to lib/crypto/, specifically the variant of NH used in Adiantum. This will replace the need for the "nhpoly1305" crypto_shash algorithm. All the implementations of "nhpoly1305" use architecture-optimized code only for the NH stage; they just use the generic C Poly1305 code for the Poly1305 stage. We can achieve the same result in a simpler way using an (architecture-optimized) nh() function combined with code in crypto/adiantum.c that passes the results to the Poly1305 library. This commit begins this cleanup by adding the nh() function. The code is derived from crypto/nhpoly1305.c and include/crypto/nhpoly1305.h.

2026-01-12lib/crypto: tests: Add KUnit tests for ML-DSA verificationEric Biggers
Add a KUnit test suite for ML-DSA verification, including the following for each ML-DSA parameter set (ML-DSA-44, ML-DSA-65, and ML-DSA-87): - Positive test (valid signature), using vector imported from leancrypto - Various negative tests: - Wrong length for signature, message, or public key - Out-of-range coefficients in z vector - Invalid encoded hint vector - Any bit flipped in signature, message, or public key - Unit test for the internal function use_hint() - A benchmark ML-DSA inputs and outputs are very large. To keep the size of the tests down, use just one valid test vector per parameter set, and generate the negative tests at runtime by mutating the valid test vector. I also considered importing the test vectors from Wycheproof. I've tested that mldsa_verify() indeed passes all of Wycheproof's ML-DSA test vectors that use an empty context string. However, importing these permanently would add over 6 MB of source. That's too much to be a reasonable addition to the Linux kernel tree for one algorithm. It also wouldn't actually provide much better test coverage than this commit. Another potential issue is that Wycheproof uses the Apache license. Similarly, this also differs from the earlier proposal to import a long list of test vectors from leancrypto. I retained only one valid signature for each algorithm, and I also added (runtime-generated) negative tests which were missing. I think this is a better tradeoff.

2026-01-12lib/crypto: Add ML-DSA verification supportEric Biggers
Add support for verifying ML-DSA signatures. ML-DSA (Module-Lattice-Based Digital Signature Algorithm) is specified in FIPS 204 and is the standard version of Dilithium. Unlike RSA and elliptic-curve cryptography, ML-DSA is believed to be secure even against adversaries in possession of a large-scale quantum computer. Compared to the earlier patch (https://lore.kernel.org/r/20251117145606.2155773-3-dhowells@redhat.com/) that was based on "leancrypto", this implementation: - Is about 700 lines of source code instead of 4800. - Generates about 4 KB of object code instead of 28 KB. - Uses 9-13 KB of memory to verify a signature instead of 31-84 KB. - Is at least about the same speed, with a microbenchmark showing 3-5% improvements on one x86_64 CPU and -1% to 1% changes on another. When memory is a bottleneck, it's likely much faster. - Correctly implements the RejNTTPoly step of the algorithm. The API just consists of a single function mldsa_verify(), supporting pure ML-DSA with any standard parameter set (ML-DSA-44, ML-DSA-65, or ML-DSA-87) as selected by an enum. That's all that's actually needed. The following four potential features are unneeded and aren't included. However, any that ever become needed could fairly easily be added later, as they only affect how the message representative mu is calculated: - Nonempty context strings - Incremental message hashing - HashML-DSA - External mu Signing support would, of course, be a larger and more complex addition. However, the kernel doesn't, and shouldn't, need ML-DSA signing support. Note that mldsa_verify() allocates memory, so it can sleep and can fail with ENOMEM. Unfortunately we don't have much choice about that, since ML-DSA needs a lot of memory. At least callers have to check for errors anyway, since the signature could be invalid. Note that verification doesn't require constant-time code, and in fact some steps are inherently variable-time. I've used constant-time patterns in some places anyway, but technically they're not needed.
