cpufreq: intel_pstate: Check IDA only before MSR_IA32_PERF_CTL writes
[ Upstream commit 4b747cc628d8f500d56cf1338280eacc66362ff3 ]
Commit ac4e04d9e378 ("cpufreq: intel_pstate: Unchecked MSR aceess in
legacy mode") introduced a check for feature X86_FEATURE_IDA to verify
turbo mode support. Although this is the correct way to check for turbo
mode support, it causes issues on some platforms that disable turbo
during OS boot, but enable it later [1]. Before adding this feature
check, users were able to get turbo mode frequencies by writing 0 to
/sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate/no_turbo post-boot.
To restore the old behavior on the affected systems while still
addressing the unchecked MSR issue on some Skylake-X systems, check
X86_FEATURE_IDA only immediately before updates of MSR_IA32_PERF_CTL
that may involve setting the Turbo Engage Bit (bit 32).

drm/amdgpu: Forward VMID reservation errors
[ Upstream commit 8defb4f081a5feccc3ea8372d0c7af3522124e1f ]
Otherwise userspace may be fooled into believing it has a reserved VMID
when in reality it doesn't, ultimately leading to GPU hangs when SPM is
used.

mm/page_alloc: change all pageblocks migrate type on coalescing
[ Upstream commit 7838a4eb8a1d23160bd3f588ea7f2b8f7c00c55b ]
When a page is freed it coalesces with a buddy into a higher order page
while possible. When the buddy page migrate type differs, it is expected
to be updated to match the one of the page being freed.
However, only the first pageblock of the buddy page is updated, while the
rest of the pageblocks are left unchanged.
That causes warnings in later expand() and other code paths (like below),
since an inconsistency between migration type of the list containing the
page and the page-owned pageblocks migration types is introduced.

mm: consider non-anon swap cache folios in folio_expected_ref_count()
[ Upstream commit f183663901f21fe0fba8bd31ae894bc529709ee0 ]
Currently, folio_expected_ref_count() only adds references for the swap
cache if the folio is anonymous. However, according to the comment above
the definition of PG_swapcache in enum pageflags, shmem folios can also
have PG_swapcache set. This patch makes sure references for the swap
cache are added if folio_test_swapcache(folio) is true.
This issue was found when trying to hot-unplug memory in a QEMU/KVM
virtual machine. When initiating hot-unplug when most of the guest memory
is allocated, hot-unplug hangs partway through removal due to migration
failures. The following message would be printed several times, and would
be printed again about every five seconds:

[ 49.641315] page dumped because: migration failure
When debugging this, I found that these migration failures were due to
__migrate_folio() returning -EAGAIN for a small set of folios because the
expected reference count it calculates via folio_expected_ref_count() is
one less than the actual reference count of the folios. Furthermore, all
of the affected folios were not anonymous, but had the PG_swapcache flag
set, inspiring this patch. After applying this patch, the memory
hot-unplug behaves as expected.
I tested this on a machine running Ubuntu 24.04 with kernel version
6.8.0-90-generic and 64GB of memory. The guest VM is managed by libvirt
and runs Ubuntu 24.04 with kernel version 6.18 (though the head of the
mm-unstable branch as a Dec 16, 2025 was also tested and behaves the same)
and 48GB of memory. The libvirt XML definition for the VM can be found at
[1]. CONFIG_MHP_DEFAULT_ONLINE_TYPE_ONLINE_MOVABLE is set in the guest
kernel so the hot-pluggable memory is automatically onlined.
Below are the steps to reproduce this behavior:
1) Define and start and virtual machine
host$ virsh -c qemu:///system define ./test_vm.xml # test_vm.xml from [1]
host$ virsh -c qemu:///system start test_vm
2) Setup swap in the guest
guest$ sudo fallocate -l 32G /swapfile
guest$ sudo chmod 0600 /swapfile
guest$ sudo mkswap /swapfile
guest$ sudo swapon /swapfile
3) Use alloc_data [2] to allocate most of the remaining guest memory
guest$ ./alloc_data 45
4) In a separate guest terminal, monitor the amount of used memory
guest$ watch -n1 free -h
5) When alloc_data has finished allocating, initiate the memory
hot-unplug using the provided xml file [3]
host$ virsh -c qemu:///system detach-device test_vm ./remove.xml --live
After initiating the memory hot-unplug, you should see the amount of
available memory in the guest decrease, and the amount of used swap data
increase. If everything works as expected, when all of the memory is
unplugged, there should be around 8.5-9GB of data in swap. If the
unplugging is unsuccessful, the amount of used swap data will settle below
that. If that happens, you should be able to see log messages in dmesg
similar to the one posted above.

mm: simplify folio_expected_ref_count()
[ Upstream commit 78cb1a13c42a6d843e21389f74d1edb90ed07288 ]
Now that PAGE_MAPPING_MOVABLE is gone, we can simplify and rely on the
folio_test_anon() test only.
... but staring at the users, this function should never even have been
called on movable_ops pages. E.g.,
* __buffer_migrate_folio() does not make sense for them
* folio_migrate_mapping() does not make sense for them
* migrate_huge_page_move_mapping() does not make sense for them
* __migrate_folio() does not make sense for them
* ... and khugepaged should never stumble over them
Let's simply refuse typed pages (which includes slab) except hugetlb, and

mptcp: ensure context reset on disconnect()
[ Upstream commit 86730ac255b0497a272704de9a1df559f5d6602e ]
After the blamed commit below, if the MPC subflow is already in TCP_CLOSE
status or has fallback to TCP at mptcp_disconnect() time,
mptcp_do_fastclose() skips setting the `send_fastclose flag` and the later
__mptcp_close_ssk() does not reset anymore the related subflow context.
Any later connection will be created with both the `request_mptcp` flag
and the msk-level fallback status off (it is unconditionally cleared at
MPTCP disconnect time), leading to a warning in subflow_data_ready():

The TCP subflow can process the simult-connect syn-ack packet after
transitioning to TCP_FIN1 state, bypassing the MPTCP fallback check,
as the sk_state_change() callback is not invoked for * -> FIN_WAIT1
transitions.
That will move the msk socket to an inconsistent status and the next
incoming data will hit the reported splat.
Close the race moving the simult-fallback check at the earliest possible
stage - that is at syn-ack generation time.

net: Remove RTNL dance for SIOCBRADDIF and SIOCBRDELIF.
commit ed3ba9b6e280e14cc3148c1b226ba453f02fa76c upstream.
SIOCBRDELIF is passed to dev_ioctl() first and later forwarded to
br_ioctl_call(), which causes unnecessary RTNL dance and the splat
below [0] under RTNL pressure.
Let's say Thread A is trying to detach a device from a bridge and
Thread B is trying to remove the bridge.
In dev_ioctl(), Thread A bumps the bridge device's refcnt by
netdev_hold() and releases RTNL because the following br_ioctl_call()
also re-acquires RTNL.
In the race window, Thread B could acquire RTNL and try to remove
the bridge device. Then, rtnl_unlock() by Thread B will release RTNL
and wait for netdev_put() by Thread A.
Thread A, however, must hold RTNL after the unlock in dev_ifsioc(),
which may take long under RTNL pressure, resulting in the splat by
Thread B.
Thread A (SIOCBRDELIF) Thread B (SIOCBRDELBR)

Wait refcnt decrement
and log splat below
To avoid blocking SIOCBRDELBR unnecessarily, let's not call
dev_ioctl() for SIOCBRADDIF and SIOCBRDELIF.
In the dev_ioctl() path, we do the following:
1. Copy struct ifreq by get_user_ifreq in sock_do_ioctl()
2. Check CAP_NET_ADMIN in dev_ioctl()
3. Call dev_load() in dev_ioctl()
4. Fetch the master dev from ifr.ifr_name in dev_ifsioc()
3. can be done by request_module() in br_ioctl_call(), so we move
1., 2., and 4. to br_ioctl_stub().
Note that 2. is also checked later in add_del_if(), but it's better
performed before RTNL.
SIOCBRADDIF and SIOCBRDELIF have been processed in dev_ioctl() since
the pre-git era, and there seems to be no specific reason to process

pwm: stm32: Always program polarity
Commit 7346e7a058a2 ("pwm: stm32: Always do lazy disabling") triggered a
regression where PWM polarity changes could be ignored.
stm32_pwm_set_polarity() was skipped due to a mismatch between the
cached pwm->state.polarity and the actual hardware state, leaving the
hardware polarity unchanged.

Revert "iommu/amd: Skip enabling command/event buffers for kdump"
This reverts commit 3344716ddee01d7caa35b470d30fd87781c661b1 which is
commit 9be15fbfc6c5c89c22cf6e209f66ea43ee0e58bb upstream.
This causes problems in older kernel trees as SNP host kdump is not
supported in them, so drop it from the stable branches.

sched/fair: Proportional newidle balance
commit 33cf66d88306663d16e4759e9d24766b0aaa2e17 upstream.
Add a randomized algorithm that runs newidle balancing proportional to
its success rate.
This improves schbench significantly:
6.18-rc4: 2.22 Mrps/s
6.18-rc4+revert: 2.04 Mrps/s
6.18-rc4+revert+random: 2.18 Mrps/S
Conversely, per Adam Li this affects SpecJBB slightly, reducing it by 1%:
6.17: -6%
6.17+revert: 0%
6.17+revert+random: -1%

virtio_console: fix order of fields cols and rows
commit 5326ab737a47278dbd16ed3ee7380b26c7056ddd upstream.
According to section 5.3.6.2 (Multiport Device Operation) of the virtio
spec(version 1.2) a control buffer with the event VIRTIO_CONSOLE_RESIZE
is followed by a virtio_console_resize struct containing cols then rows.
The kernel implements this the wrong way around (rows then cols) resulting
in the two values being swapped.

wifi: mac80211: Discard Beacon frames to non-broadcast address
[ Upstream commit 193d18f60588e95d62e0f82b6a53893e5f2f19f8 ]
Beacon frames are required to be sent to the broadcast address, see IEEE
Std 802.11-2020, 11.1.3.1 ("The Address 1 field of the Beacon .. frame
shall be set to the broadcast address"). A unicast Beacon frame might be
used as a targeted attack to get one of the associated STAs to do
something (e.g., using CSA to move it to another channel). As such, it
is better have strict filtering for this on the received side and
discard all Beacon frames that are sent to an unexpected address.
This is even more important for cases where beacon protection is used.
The current implementation in mac80211 is correctly discarding unicast
Beacon frames if the Protected Frame bit in the Frame Control field is
set to 0. However, if that bit is set to 1, the logic used for checking
for configured BIGTK(s) does not actually work. If the driver does not
have logic for dropping unicast Beacon frames with Protected Frame bit
1, these frames would be accepted in mac80211 processing as valid Beacon
frames even though they are not protected. This would allow beacon
protection to be bypassed. While the logic for checking beacon
protection could be extended to cover this corner case, a more generic
check for discard all Beacon frames based on A1=unicast address covers
this without needing additional changes.
Address all these issues by dropping received Beacon frames if they are
sent to a non-broadcast address.
