1. Prominent features
1.1. Faster performance and less cache misses with cache-aware task scheduling
This release introduces cache-aware load balancing of tasks, with the goal of co-locating tasks that share data (ie. threads of the same process) within the same Last Level Cache domain. By improving cache locality, the scheduler can reduce cache bouncing and cache misses, ultimately improving data access efficiency.
Recommended LWN article: Cache awareness for the CPU scheduler
1.2. Better memory reclaiming, for better performance
Memory reclaiming, which is the part of the kernel that decides which parts of the memory should be sent to the swap or evicted from memory, has been improved. This release cleans up and slightly improve MGLRU's reclaim loop and dirty writeback handling. As a result, we can see an up to ~30% increase in some workloads like MongoDB with YCSB and a huge decrease in file refault, no swap involved. Other common benchmarks have no regression, and LOC is reduced, with less unexpected OOM, too.
2. Core (various)
exec: relocate the dumpable mode and the user_namespace captured at execve() from mm_struct onto a new per-task task_exec_state structure that stays attached to the task for its full lifetime (cover), commit, commit, commit, commit
futex: Address the robust futex unlock race for real (cover), commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit
- Task scheduler
(FEATURED) Cache aware scheduling, with the goal of co-locating tasks that share data within the same Last Level Cache (LLC) domain. By improving cache locality, the scheduler can reduce cache bouncing and cache misses (cover), commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit and Cache aware scheduling enhancements (cover), commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit
Optimized Donor Migration for Proxy Execution (cover), commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit
tick: Refactor idle cputime accounting (cover), commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit
sched_ext: Topological CPU IDs (cids): a dense, topology-ordered CPU numbering where the CPUs of a core, LLC, or NUMA node form contiguous ranges, so a topology unit becomes a (start, length) slice (cover), commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit
sched_ext: Improve exit-time diagnostics (cover), commit, commit, commit
sched_ext: bitmaps windowed over a slice of cid space, so a sub-scheduler can track, for example, the idle cids of its shard without a full NR_CPUS cpumask (cover), commit, commit, commit
scx_qmap: Convert to BPF arena (cover), commit, commit, commit, commit
fair: attempts to improve SD_ASYM_CPUCAPACITY scheduling by introducing SMT awareness (cover), commit, commit, commit, commit, commit
- io_uring
zcrx: Add a mechanism to communicate conditions back to userspace via a dedicated CQE, with the initial users being notification on running out of buffers and on a frag copy fallback, plus shared-memory notification statistics (cover), commit, commit, commit, commit
net: support registered buffer for plain send and recv commit
net: allow filtering on IORING_OP_CONNECT commit
pipe: reduce pipe->mutex contention by pre-allocating outside the lock. On a writers x readers sweep with 64KB writes against a 1 MB pipe throughput improves 6-28% and average write latency drops 5-22%; under memory pressure - when the cost of holding the mutex across reclaim is highest - throughput improves 21-48% and latency drops 17-33% (cover), commit, commit
Improve write performance with RWF_DONTCACHE (cover), commit, commit, commit
proc: subset=pid: Relax check of mount visibility (cover), commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit

Add O_EMPTYPATH to openat(2)/openat2(2). If passed, LOOKUP_EMPTY is set at path resolution time (cover), commit, commit
openat2: OPENAT2_REGULAR flag support, which refuses to open anything but regular files, protecting services from being redirected to fifos, device nodes, and friends (cover), commit, commit
writeback: fix race between cgroup_writeback_umount() and inode_switch_wbs() (cover), commit, commit, commit
fanotify: lift pidfd reporting restrictions and allow fanotify to report pidfds referring to the event-generating thread (cover), commit, commit
- procfs
Speedup reading /proc/filesystems (it is read frequently because libselinux reads it and is linked into numerous frequently used programs, even simple ones like sed) (cover), commit, commit, commit
Improve /proc/interrupts (cover), commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit
- VFS
Add the vfs infrastructure required to implement fs-verity support with a post-EOF merkle tree: fsverity generates and stores a zero-block hash, and iomap learns to verify data on buffered reads commit, commit, commit, commit, commit
iomap: Skip the memset in iomap_iter() once the iteration is done. In high-IOPS scenarios (4k randread NVMe polling via io_uring) the pointless memset wasted memory write bandwidth; this improves IOPS by about 5% on ext4 and xfs commit
Prerequisites for supporting directory delegations in nfsd via CB_NOTIFY callbacks (cover), commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit
Introduce IOMAP_F_ZERO_TAIL for filesystems that maintain a separate valid data length (exFAT, NTFS) commit, commit, commit, commit

Expose the case folding behavior of local filesystems so that file servers - nfsd, ksmbd, and user space file servers - can report the actual behavior to clients instead of guessing (cover), commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit
Add support for netlink upcalls for the auth.unix.ip and auth.unix.gid caches in SunRPC for mountd/exportd (cover), commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit
The default NFS r/w block size rises to 4MB on hosts with at least 16GB of RAM, reducing per-RPC overhead on fast networks. Smaller machines keep their previously computed default, and the value remains tunable through /proc/fs/nfsd/max_block_size commit

Use folio_mark_accessed to replace folio_set_active commit
Swap table phase IV: unify allocation and reduce static metadata: Unify the allocation and charging of anon and shmem swap in folios, provides better synchronization, consolidates the metadata management, hence dropping the static array and map, and improves performance (cover), commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit, commit
Speed up the freeing of a batch of 0-order pages by first scanning them for coalescing opportunities. This is applicable to vfree() and to the releasing of frozen pages (cover), commit, commit, commit
filemap: tighten mmap_miss hit accounting. This fixes a flaw where the mmap_miss counter over-credited page cache hits during fault-arounds and page-fault retries.
