commit 6a069876eb1402478900ee0eb7d7fe276bb1f4e3 upstream.

On 32-bit ARM, you may encounter linker errors such as this one:

	ld.lld: error: undefined symbol: _find_next_zero_bit
	&gt;&gt;&gt; referenced by rust_binder_main.43196037ba7bcee1-cgu.0
	&gt;&gt;&gt;               drivers/android/binder/rust_binder_main.o:(&lt;rust_binder_main::process::Process&gt;::insert_or_update_handle) in archive vmlinux.a
	&gt;&gt;&gt; referenced by rust_binder_main.43196037ba7bcee1-cgu.0
	&gt;&gt;&gt;               drivers/android/binder/rust_binder_main.o:(&lt;rust_binder_main::process::Process&gt;::insert_or_update_handle) in archive vmlinux.a

This error occurs because even though the functions are declared by
include/linux/find.h, the definition is #ifdef'd out on 32-bit ARM. This
is because arch/arm/include/asm/bitops.h contains:

	#define find_first_zero_bit(p,sz)	_find_first_zero_bit_le(p,sz)
	#define find_next_zero_bit(p,sz,off)	_find_next_zero_bit_le(p,sz,off)
	#define find_first_bit(p,sz)		_find_first_bit_le(p,sz)
	#define find_next_bit(p,sz,off)		_find_next_bit_le(p,sz,off)

And the underscore-prefixed function is conditional on #ifndef of the
non-underscore-prefixed name, but the declaration in find.h is *not*
conditional on that #ifndef.

To fix the linker error, we ensure that the symbols in question exist
when compiling Rust code. We do this by defining them in rust/helpers/
whenever the normal definition is #ifndef'd out.

Note that these helpers are somewhat unusual in that they do not have
the rust_helper_ prefix that most helpers have. Adding the rust_helper_
prefix does not compile, as 'bindings::_find_next_zero_bit()' will
result in a call to a symbol called _find_next_zero_bit as defined by
include/linux/find.h rather than a symbol with the rust_helper_ prefix.
This is because when a symbol is present in both include/ and
rust/helpers/, the one from include/ wins under the assumption that the
current configuration is one where that helper is unnecessary. This
heuristic fails for _find_next_zero_bit() because the header file always
declares it even if the symbol does not exist.

The functions still use the __rust_helper annotation. This lets the
wrapper function be inlined into Rust code even if full kernel LTO is
not used once the patch series for that feature lands.

Yury: arches are free to implement they own find_bit() functions. Most
rely on generic implementation, but arm32 and m86k - not; so they require
custom handling. Alice confirmed it fixes the build for both.

commit 6a069876eb1402478900ee0eb7d7fe276bb1f4e3 upstream.

On 32-bit ARM, you may encounter linker errors such as this one:

	ld.lld: error: undefined symbol: _find_next_zero_bit
	&gt;&gt;&gt; referenced by rust_binder_main.43196037ba7bcee1-cgu.0

commit d8932355f8c5673106eca49abd142f8fe0c1fe8b upstream.

Add dma_set_mask(), dma_set_coherent_mask(), dma_map_sgtable(), and
dma_max_mapping_size() helpers to fix a build error when
CONFIG_HAS_DMA is not enabled.

Note that when CONFIG_HAS_DMA is enabled, they are included in both
bindings_generated.rs and bindings_helpers_generated.rs. The former
takes precedence so behavior remains unchanged in that case.

This fixes the following build error on UML:

Pull Char/Misc/IIO/Binder updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the big set of char/misc/iio and other driver subsystem
  changes for 6.18-rc1.

  Loads of different stuff in here, it was a busy development cycle in
  lots of different subsystems, with over 27k new lines added to the
  tree.

  Included in here are:

   - IIO updates including new drivers, reworking of existing apis, and
     other goodness in the sensor subsystems

   - MEI driver updates and additions

   - NVMEM driver updates

   - slimbus removal for an unused driver and some other minor updates

   - coresight driver updates and additions

   - MHI driver updates

   - comedi driver updates and fixes

   - extcon driver updates

   - interconnect driver additions

   - eeprom driver updates and fixes

   - minor UIO driver updates

   - tiny W1 driver updates

  But the majority of new code is in the rust bindings and additions,
  which includes:

   - misc driver rust binding updates for read/write support, we can now
     write "normal" misc drivers in rust fully, and the sample driver
     shows how this can be done.

   - Initial framework for USB driver rust bindings, which are disabled
     for now in the build, due to limited support, but coming in through
     this tree due to dependencies on other rust binding changes that
     were in here. I'll be enabling these back on in the build in the
     usb.git tree after -rc1 is out so that developers can continue to
     work on these in linux-next over the next development cycle.

   - Android Binder driver implemented in Rust.

     This is the big one, and was driving a huge majority of the rust
     binding work over the past years. Right now there are two binder
     drivers in the kernel, selected only at build time as to which one
     to use as binder wants to be included in the system at boot time.

     The binder C maintainers all agreed on this, as eventually, they
     want the C code to be removed from the tree, but it will take a few
     releases to get there while both are maintained to ensure that the
     rust implementation is fully stable and compliant with the existing
     userspace apis.

  All of these have been in linux-next for a while"

   DAMOS_STAT's handling of the DAMON operations sets for virtual
   address spaces for ops-level DAMOS filters

 - "execute PROCMAP_QUERY ioctl under per-vma lock" from Suren
   Baghdasaryan reduces mmap_lock contention during reads of
   /proc/pid/maps

   performs some cleanup in the swap code

 - "mm: vm_normal_page*() improvements" from David Hildenbrand provides
   code cleanup in the pagemap code

 - "add persistent huge zero folio support" from Pankaj Raghav provides
   a block layer speedup by optionalls making the
   huge_zero_pagepersistent, instead of releasing it when its refcount
   falls to zero

 - "kho: fixes and cleanups" from Mike Rapoport adds a few touchups to
   the recently added Kexec Handover feature

 - "mm: make mm-&gt;flags a bitmap and 64-bit on all arches" from Lorenzo
   Stoakes turns mm_struct.flags into a bitmap. To end the constant
   struggle with space shortage on 32-bit conflicting with 64-bit's
   needs

 - "mm/swapfile.c and swap.h cleanup" from Chris Li cleans up some swap
   code

 - "selftests/mm: Fix false positives and skip unsupported tests" from
   Donet Tom fixes a few things in our selftests code

 - "prctl: extend PR_SET_THP_DISABLE to only provide THPs when advised"
   from David Hildenbrand "allows individual processes to opt-out of
   THP=always into THP=madvise, without affecting other workloads on the
   system".

   It's a long story - the [1/N] changelog spells out the considerations

 - "Add and use memdesc_flags_t" from Matthew Wilcox gets us started on
   the memdesc project. Please see

      https://kernelnewbies.org/MatthewWilcox/Memdescs and
      https://blogs.oracle.com/linux/post/introducing-memdesc

 - "Tiny optimization for large read operations" from Chi Zhiling
   improves the efficiency of the pagecache read path

   function and converts its two remaining callers

 - "selftests/mm: uffd-stress fixes" from Dev Jain fixes some UFFD
   selftests issues

 - "introduce kernel file mapped folios" from Boris Burkov introduces
   the concept of "kernel file pages". Using these permits btrfs to
   account its metadata pages to the root cgroup, rather than to the
   cgroups of random inappropriate tasks

 - "mm/pageblock: improve readability of some pageblock handling" from
   Wei Yang provides some readability improvements to the page allocator
   code

 - "mm/damon: support ARM32 with LPAE" from SeongJae Park teaches DAMON
   to understand arm32 highmem

 - "tools: testing: Use existing atomic.h for vma/maple tests" from
   Brendan Jackman performs some code cleanups and deduplication under
   tools/testing/

 - "maple_tree: Fix testing for 32bit compiles" from Liam Howlett fixes
   a couple of 32-bit issues in tools/testing/radix-tree.c

 - "kasan: unify kasan_enabled() and remove arch-specific
   implementations" from Sabyrzhan Tasbolatov moves KASAN arch-specific
   initialization code into a common arch-neutral implementation

 - "mm: remove zpool" from Johannes Weiner removes zspool - an
   indirection layer which now only redirects to a single thing
   (zsmalloc)

 - "mm: task_stack: Stack handling cleanups" from Pasha Tatashin makes a
   couple of cleanups in the fork code

 - "mm: remove nth_page()" from David Hildenbrand makes rather a lot of
   adjustments at various nth_page() callsites, eventually permitting
   the removal of that undesirable helper function

 - "introduce kasan.write_only option in hw-tags" from Yeoreum Yun
   creates a KASAN read-only mode for ARM, using that architecture's
   memory tagging feature. It is felt that a read-only mode KASAN is
   suitable for use in production systems rather than debug-only

 - "mm: hugetlb: cleanup hugetlb folio allocation" from Kefeng Wang does
   some tidying in the hugetlb folio allocation code

 - "mm: establish const-correctness for pointer parameters" from Max
   Kellermann makes quite a number of the MM API functions more accurate
   about the constness of their arguments. This was getting in the way
   of subsystems (in this case CEPH) when they attempt to improving
   their own const/non-const accuracy

 - "Cleanup free_pages() misuse" from Vishal Moola fixes a number of
   code sites which were confused over when to use free_pages() vs
   __free_pages()

   improvements" from David Hildenbrand adds a fix and some cleanups to
   the thp selftesting code

 - "mm, swap: introduce swap table as swap cache (phase I)" from Chris
   Li and Kairui Song is the first step along the path to implementing
   "swap tables" - a new approach to swap allocation and state tracking
   which is expected to yield speed and space improvements. This
   patchset itself yields a 5-20% performance benefit in some situations

 - "Some ptdesc cleanups" from Matthew Wilcox utilizes the new memdesc
   layer to clean up the ptdesc code a little

 - "Fix va_high_addr_switch.sh test failure" from Chunyu Hu fixes some
   issues in our 5-level pagetable selftesting code

 - "Minor fixes for memory allocation profiling" from Suren Baghdasaryan
   addresses a couple of minor issues in relatively new memory
   allocation profiling feature

 - "Small cleanups" from Matthew Wilcox has a few cleanups in
   preparation for more memdesc work

 - "mm/damon: add addr_unit for DAMON_LRU_SORT and DAMON_RECLAIM" from
   Quanmin Yan makes some changes to DAMON in furtherance of supporting
   arm highmem

 - "selftests/mm: Add -Wunreachable-code and fix warnings" from Muhammad
   Anjum adds that compiler check to selftests code and fixes the
   fallout, by removing dead code

 - "Improvements to Victim Process Thawing and OOM Reaper Traversal
   Order" from zhongjinji makes a number of improvements in the OOM
   killer: mainly thawing a more appropriate group of victim threads so
   they can release resources

 - "mm/damon: misc fixups and improvements for 6.18" from SeongJae Park
   is a bunch of small and unrelated fixups for DAMON

 - "mm/damon: define and use DAMON initialization check function" from
   SeongJae Park implement reliability and maintainability improvements
   to a recently-added bug fix

 - "mm/damon/stat: expose auto-tuned intervals and non-idle ages" from
   SeongJae Park provides additional transparency to userspace clients
   of the DAMON_STAT information

 - "Expand scope of khugepaged anonymous collapse" from Dev Jain removes
   some constraints on khubepaged's collapsing of anon VMAs. It also
   increases the success rate of MADV_COLLAPSE against an anon vma

 - "mm: do not assume file == vma-&gt;vm_file in compat_vma_mmap_prepare()"
   from Lorenzo Stoakes moves us further towards removal of
   file_operations.mmap(). This patchset concentrates upon clearing up
   the treatment of stacked filesystems

 - "mm: Improve mlock tracking for large folios" from Kiryl Shutsemau
   provides some fixes and improvements to mlock's tracking of large
   folios. /proc/meminfo's "Mlocked" field became more accurate

 - "mm/ksm: Fix incorrect accounting of KSM counters during fork" from
   Donet Tom fixes several user-visible KSM stats inaccuracies across
   forks and adds selftest code to verify these counters

 - "mm_slot: fix the usage of mm_slot_entry" from Wei Yang addresses
   some potential but presently benign issues in KSM's mm_slot handling

* tag 'mm-stable-2025-10-01-19-00' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm: (372 commits)
