Networking changes for 6.13.
The most significant set of changes is the per netns RTNL. The new
behavior is disabled by default, regression risk should be contained.
Notably the new config knob PTP_1588_CLOCK_VMCLOCK will inherit its
default value from PTP_1588_CLOCK_KVM, as the first is intended to be
a more reliable replacement for the latter.
Core
----
- Started a very large, in-progress, effort to make the RTNL lock
scope per network-namespace, thus reducing the lock contention
significantly in the containerized use-case, comprising:
- RCU-ified some relevant slices of the FIB control path
- introduce basic per netns locking helpers
- namespacified the IPv4 address hash table
- remove rtnl_register{,_module}() in favour of rtnl_register_many()
- refactor rtnl_{new,del,set}link() moving as much validation as
possible out of RTNL lock
- convert all phonet doit() and dumpit() handlers to RCU
- convert IPv4 addresses manipulation to per-netns RTNL
- convert virtual interface creation to per-netns RTNL
the per-netns lock infra is guarded by the CONFIG_DEBUG_NET_SMALL_RTNL
knob, disabled by default ad interim.
- Introduce NAPI suspension, to efficiently switching between busy
polling (NAPI processing suspended) and normal processing.
- Migrate the IPv4 routing input, output and control path from direct
ToS usage to DSCP macros. This is a work in progress to make ECN
handling consistent and reliable.
- Add drop reasons support to the IPv4 rotue input path, allowing
better introspection in case of packets drop.
- Make FIB seqnum lockless, dropping RTNL protection for read
access.
- Make inet{,v6} addresses hashing less predicable.
- Allow providing timestamp OPT_ID via cmsg, to correlate TX packets
and timestamps
Things we sprinkled into general kernel code
--------------------------------------------
- Add small file operations for debugfs, to reduce the struct ops size.
- Refactoring and optimization for the implementation of page_frag API,
This is a preparatory work to consolidate the page_frag
implementation.
Netfilter
---------
- Optimize set element transactions to reduce memory consumption
- Extended netlink error reporting for attribute parser failure.
- Make legacy xtables configs user selectable, giving users
the option to configure iptables without enabling any other config.
- Address a lot of false-positive RCU issues, pointed by recent
CI improvements.
BPF
---
- Put xsk sockets on a struct diet and add various cleanups. Overall,
this helps to bump performance by 12% for some workloads.
- Extend BPF selftests to increase coverage of XDP features in
combination with BPF cpumap.
- Optimize and homogenize bpf_csum_diff helper for all archs and also
add a batch of new BPF selftests for it.
- Extend netkit with an option to delegate skb->{mark,priority}
scrubbing to its BPF program.
- Make the bpf_get_netns_cookie() helper available also to tc(x) BPF
programs.
Protocols
---------
- Introduces 4-tuple hash for connected udp sockets, speeding-up
significantly connected sockets lookup.
- Add a fastpath for some TCP timers that usually expires after close,
the socket lock contention.
- Add inbound and outbound xfrm state caches to speed up state lookups.
- Avoid sending MPTCP advertisements on stale subflows, reducing
risks on loosing them.
- Make neighbours table flushing more scalable, maintaining per device
neigh lists.
Driver API
----------
- Introduce a unified interface to configure transmission H/W shaping,
and expose it to user-space via generic-netlink.
- Add support for per-NAPI config via netlink. This makes napi
configuration persistent across queues removal and re-creation.
Requires driver updates, currently supported drivers are:
nVidia/Mellanox mlx4 and mlx5, Broadcom brcm and Intel ice.
- Add ethtool support for writing SFP / PHY firmware blocks.
- Track RSS context allocation from ethtool core.
- Implement support for mirroring to DSA CPU port, via TC mirror
offload.
- Consolidate FDB updates notification, to avoid duplicates on
device-specific entries.
- Expose DPLL clock quality level to the user-space.
- Support master-slave PHY config via device tree.
Tests and tooling
-----------------
- forwarding: introduce deferred commands, to simplify
the cleanup phase

Another moderately busy cycle in docsland:
- Work on Chinese translations has picked up again. Happily, they are
maintaining the existing translations and not just adding new ones.
- Some maintenance of the Japanese and Italian translations as well.
- The removal of the venerable "dontdiff" file. It has long outlived its
usefulness and contained entries ("parse.*") that would actively mask
actual source change.
- The addition of enforcement information to the code-of-conduct
documentation.
Along with some build-system fixes and a lot of typo and language fixes.

RCU pull request for v6.13
SRCU:
- Introduction of the new SRCU-lite flavour with a new pair of
srcu_read_[un]lock_lite() APIs. In practice the read side using
this flavour becomes lighter by removing a full memory barrier on
LOCK and a full memory barrier on UNLOCK. This comes at the
expense of a higher latency write side with two (in the best case
of a snaphot of unused read-sides) or more RCU grace periods on
the update side which now assumes by itself the whole full
ordering guarantee against the LOCK/UNLOCK counters on both
indexes, along with the accesses performed inside.
Uretprobes is a known potential user.
Note this doesn't replace the default normal flavour of SRCU which
still behaves the same as usual.
- Add testing of SRCU-lite through rcutorture and rcuscale
- Various cleanups on the way.
FIXES:
- Allow short-circuiting RCU-TASKS-RUDE grace periods on architectures
that have sane noinstr boundaries forbidding tracing on low-level
idle and kernel entry code. RCU-TASKS is enough on such configurations
because it involves an RCU grace period that waits for all idle
tasks to either schedule out voluntarily or enter into RCU
unwatched noinstr code.
- Allow and test start_poll_synchronize_rcu() with IRQs disabled.
- Mention rcuog kthreads in relevant documentation and Kconfig help
- Various fixes and consolidations
RCUTORTURE:
- Add --no-affinity on tools to leave the affinity setting of guests
up to the user.
- Add guest_os_delay parameter to rcuscale for better warm-up
control.
- Fix and improve some rcuscale error handling.
- Various cleanups and fixes
STALL:
- Remove dead code
- Stop dumping tasks if a stalled grace period eventually ended
midway as that only produces confusing output.
- Optimize detection of stalling CPUs and avoid useless node
locking otherwise.
NOCB:
- Fix rcu_barrier() hang due to a race against callbacks
deoffloading. This is not yet used, except by rcutorture, and
waits for its promised cpusets interface.
- Remove leftover function declaration

arm64 updates for 6.13:
* Support for running Linux in a protected VM under the Arm Confidential
Compute Architecture (CCA)
* Guarded Control Stack user-space support. Current patches follow the
x86 ABI of implicitly creating a shadow stack on clone(). Subsequent
patches (already on the list) will add support for clone3() allowing
finer-grained control of the shadow stack size and placement from libc
* AT_HWCAP3 support (not running out of HWCAP2 bits yet but we are
getting close with the upcoming dpISA support)
* Other arch features:
- In-kernel use of the memcpy instructions, FEAT_MOPS (previously only
exposed to user; uaccess support not merged yet)
- MTE: hugetlbfs support and the corresponding kselftests
- Optimise CRC32 using the PMULL instructions
- Support for FEAT_HAFT enabling ARCH_HAS_NONLEAF_PMD_YOUNG
- Optimise the kernel TLB flushing to use the range operations
- POE/pkey (permission overlays): further cleanups after bringing the
signal handler in line with the x86 behaviour for 6.12
* arm64 perf updates:
- Support for the NXP i.MX91 PMU in the existing IMX driver
- Support for Ampere SoCs in the Designware PCIe PMU driver
- Support for Marvell's 'PEM' PCIe PMU present in the 'Odyssey' SoC
- Support for Samsung's 'Mongoose' CPU PMU
- Support for PMUv3.9 finer-grained userspace counter access control
- Switch back to platform_driver::remove() now that it returns 'void'
- Add some missing events for the CXL PMU driver
* Miscellaneous arm64 fixes/cleanups:
- Page table accessors cleanup: type updates, drop unused macros,
reorganise arch_make_huge_pte() and clean up pte_mkcont(), sanity
check addresses before runtime P4D/PUD folding
- Command line override for ID_AA64MMFR0_EL1.ECV (advertising the
FEAT_ECV for the generic timers) allowing Linux to boot with
firmware deployments that don't set SCTLR_EL3.ECVEn
- ACPI/arm64: tighten the check for the array of platform timer
structures and adjust the error handling procedure in

tpm: Opt-in in disable PCR integrity protection
The initial HMAC session feature added TPM bus encryption and/or integrity
protection to various in-kernel TPM operations. This can cause performance
bottlenecks with IMA, as it heavily utilizes PCR extend operations.
In order to mitigate this performance issue, introduce a kernel
command-line parameter to the TPM driver for disabling the integrity
protection for PCR extend operations (i.e. TPM2_PCR_Extend).

net: Implement fault injection forcing skb reallocation
Introduce a fault injection mechanism to force skb reallocation. The primary goal is to catch bugs related to pointer invalidation after potential skb reallocation. The fault injection mechanism aims to identify scenarios where callers retain pointers to various headers in the skb but fail to reload these pointers after calling a function that may reallocate the data. This type of bug can lead to memory corruption or crashes if the old, now-invalid pointers are used. By forcing reallocation through fault injection, we can stress-test code paths and ensure proper pointer management after potential skb reallocations. Add a hook for fault injection in the following functions: * pskb_trim_rcsum() * pskb_may_pull_reason() * pskb_trim() As the other fault injection mechanism, protect it under a debug Kconfig called CONFIG_FAIL_SKB_REALLOC.

mm: shmem: override mTHP shmem default with a kernel parameter
Add the ``thp_shmem=`` kernel command line to allow specifying the default policy of each supported shmem hugepage size. The kernel parameter accepts the following format: thp_shmem=<size>[KMG],<size>[KMG]:<policy>;<size>[KMG]-<size>[KMG]:<policy> For example, thp_shmem=16K-64K:always;128K,512K:inherit;256K:advise;1M-2M:never;4M-8M:within_size Some GPUs may benefit from using huge pages. Since DRM GEM uses shmem to allocate anonymous pageable memory, it's essential to control the huge page allocation policy for the internal shmem mount. This control can be achieved through the ``transparent_hugepage_shmem=`` parameter. Beyond just setting the allocation policy, it's crucial to have granular control over the size of huge pages that can be allocated. The GPU may support only specific huge page sizes, and allocating pages larger/smaller than those sizes would be ineffective.

mm: shmem: control THP support through the kernel command line
Patch series "mm: add more kernel parameters to control mTHP", v5. This series introduces four patches related to the kernel parameters controlling mTHP and a fifth patch replacing `strcpy()` for `strscpy()` in the file `mm/huge_memory.c`. The first patch is a straightforward documentation update, correcting the format of the kernel parameter ``thp_anon=``. The second, third, and fourth patches focus on controlling THP support for shmem via the kernel command line. The second patch introduces a parameter to control the global default huge page allocation policy for the internal shmem mount. The third patch moves a piece of code to a shared header to ease the implementation of the fourth patch. Finally, the fourth patch implements a parameter similar to ``thp_anon=``, but for shmem. The goal of these changes is to simplify the configuration of systems that rely on mTHP support for shmem. For instance, a platform with a GPU that benefits from huge pages may want to enable huge pages for shmem. Having these kernel parameters streamlines the configuration process and ensures consistency across setups. This patch (of 4): Add a new kernel command line to control the hugepage allocation policy for the internal shmem mount, ``transparent_hugepage_shmem``. The parameter is similar to ``transparent_hugepage`` and has the following format: transparent_hugepage_shmem=<policy> where ``<policy>`` is one of the seven valid policies available for shmem. Configuring the default huge page allocation policy for the internal shmem mount can be beneficial for DRM GPU drivers. Just as CPU architectures, GPUs can also take advantage of huge pages, but this is possible only if DRM GEM objects are backed by huge pages. Since GEM uses shmem to allocate anonymous pageable memory, having control over the default huge page allocation policy allows for the exploration of huge pages use on GPUs that rely on GEM objects backed by shmem.

mm: fix docs for the kernel parameter `thp_anon=`
If we add ``thp_anon=32,64K:always`` to the kernel command line, we
will see the following error:
[ 0.000000] huge_memory: thp_anon=32,64K:always: error parsing string, ignoring setting
This happens because the correct format isn't ``thp_anon=<size>,<size>[KMG]:<state>```,
as [KMG] must follow each number to especify its unit. So, the correct
format is ``thp_anon=<size>[KMG],<size>[KMG]:<state>```.
Therefore, adjust the documentation to reflect the correct format of the
parameter ``thp_anon=``.

SLUB: Add support for per object memory policies
The old SLAB allocator used to support memory policies on a per
allocation bases. In SLUB the memory policies are applied on a
per page frame / folio bases. Doing so avoids having to check memory
policies in critical code paths for kmalloc and friends.
This worked on general well on Intel/AMD/PowerPC because the
interconnect technology is mature and can minimize the latencies
through intelligent caching even if a small object is not
placed optimally.
However, on ARM we have an emergence of new NUMA interconnect
technology based more on embedded devices. Caching of remote content
can currently be ineffective using the standard building blocks / mesh
available on that platform. Such architectures benefit if each slab
object is individually placed according to memory policies
and other restrictions.
This patch adds another kernel parameter
slab_strict_numa
If that is set then a static branch is activated that will cause
the hotpaths of the allocator to evaluate the current memory
allocation policy. Each object will be properly placed by
paying the price of extra processing and SLUB will no longer
defer to the page allocator to apply memory policies at the
folio level.
This patch improves performance of memcached running
on Ampere Altra 2P system (ARM Neoverse N1 processor)
by 3.6% due to accurate placement of small kernel objects.

Documentation/tracing: Mention that RESET_ATTACK_MITIGATION can clear memory
At the 2024 Linux Plumbers Conference, I was talking with Hans de Goede about the persistent buffer to display traces from previous boots. He mentioned that UEFI can clear memory. In my own tests I have not seen this. He later informed me that it requires the config option: CONFIG_RESET_ATTACK_MITIGATION It appears that setting this will allow the memory to be cleared on boot up, which will definitely clear out the trace of the previous boot. Add this information under the trace_instance in kernel-parameters.txt to let people know that this can cause issues.

ring-buffer: Updates for v6.12:
- Merged v6.11-rc3 into trace/ring-buffer/core
The v6.10 ring buffer pull request was not made due to Mathieu Desnoyers
making a comment to the pull request. Mathieu and I resolved it on IRC,
but we did not let Linus know that it was resolved. Linus did not do the
pull thinking it still had some unresolved issues.
The ring buffer work for 6.12 was dependent on both this pull request as
well as the reserve_mem kernel command line option that was going upstream
through the memory management tree. The ring buffer repo was being used by
others so it could not be rebased. In order to continue the work, the
v6.11-rc3 branch was pulled in to get access to the reserve_mem work.
This has the 6.11 pull request that did not make it into 6.11, which was:
tracing/ring-buffer: Have persistent buffer across reboots
This allows for the tracing instance ring buffer to stay persistent across
reboots. The way this is done is by adding to the kernel command line:
trace_instance=boot_map@0x285400000:12M
This will reserve 12 megabytes at the address 0x285400000, and then map
the tracing instance "boot_map" ring buffer to that memory. This will
appear as a normal instance in the tracefs system:
/sys/kernel/tracing/instances/boot_map
A user could enable tracing in that instance, and on reboot or kernel
crash, if the memory is not wiped by the firmware, it will recreate the
trace in that instance. For example, if one was debugging a shutdown of a
kernel reboot:
# cd /sys/kernel/tracing
# echo function > instances/boot_map/current_tracer
# reboot
[..]
# cd /sys/kernel/tracing
# tail instances/boot_map/trace

swapper/0-1 [000] d..1. 164.549822: acpi_os_write_port <-acpi_reboot
On reboot, the buffer is examined to make sure it is valid. The validation
check even steps through every event to make sure the meta data of the
event is correct. If any test fails, it will simply reset the buffer, and
the buffer will be empty on boot.
The new changes for 6.12 are:
- Allow the tracing persistent boot buffer to use the "reserve_mem" option
Instead of having the admin find a physical address to store the persistent
buffer, which can be very tedious if they have to administrate several
different machines, allow them to use the "reserve_mem" option that will
find a location for them. It is not as reliable because of KASLR, as the
loading of the kernel in different locations can cause the memory
allocated to be inconsistent. Booting with "nokaslr" can make reserve_mem
more reliable.
- Have function graph tracer handle offsets from a previous boot.
The ring buffer output from a previous boot may have different addresses
due to kaslr. Have the function graph tracer handle these by using the
delta from the previous boot to the new boot address space.
- Only reset the saved meta offset when the buffer is started or reset
In the persistent memory meta data, it holds the previous address space
information, so that it can calculate the delta to have function tracing
work. But this gets updated after being read to hold the new address
space. But if the buffer isn't used for that boot, on reboot, the delta is
now calculated from the previous boot and not the boot that holds the data
in the ring buffer. This causes the functions not to be shown. Do not save
the address space information of the current kernel until it is being
recorded.
- Add a magic variable to test the valid meta data
Add a magic variable in the meta data that can also be used for
validation. The validator of the previous buffer doesn't need this magic
data, but it can be used if the meta data is changed by a new kernel, which
may have the same format that passes the validator but is used
differently. This magic number can also be used as a "versioning" of the
meta data.
- Align user space mapped ring buffer sub buffers to improve TLB entries
Linus mentioned that the mapped ring buffer sub buffers were misaligned
between the meta page and the sub-buffers, so that if the sub-buffers were
bigger than PAGE_SIZE, it wouldn't allow the TLB to use bigger entries.
- Add new kernel command line "traceoff" to disable tracing on boot for instances
If tracing is enabled for a boot instance, there needs a way to be able to
disable it on boot so that new events do not get entered into the ring
buffer and be mixed with events from a previous boot, as that can be
confusing.
- Allow trace_printk() to go to other instances
Currently, trace_printk() can only go to the top level instance. When
debugging with a persistent buffer, it is really useful to be able to add
trace_printk() to go to that buffer, so that you have access to them after
a crash.
- Do not use "bin_printk()" for traces to a boot instance
The bin_printk() saves only a pointer to the printk format in the ring
buffer, as the reader of the buffer can still have access to it. But this
is not the case if the buffer is from a previous boot. If the
trace_printk() is going to a "persistent" buffer, it will use the slower
version that writes the printk format into the buffer.
- Add command line option to allow trace_printk() to go to an instance
Allow the kernel command line to define which instance the trace_printk()
goes to, instead of forcing the admin to set it for every boot via the
tracefs options.
- Start a document that explains how to use tracefs to debug the kernel
- Add some more kernel selftests to test user mapped ring buffer

Pull ring-buffer updates from Steven Rostedt:
- tracing/ring-buffer: persistent buffer across reboots
This allows for the tracing instance ring buffer to stay persistent
across reboots. The way this is done is by adding to the kernel
command line:
trace_instance=boot_map@0x285400000:12M
This will reserve 12 megabytes at the address 0x285400000, and then
map the tracing instance "boot_map" ring buffer to that memory. This
will appear as a normal instance in the tracefs system:
/sys/kernel/tracing/instances/boot_map
A user could enable tracing in that instance, and on reboot or kernel
crash, if the memory is not wiped by the firmware, it will recreate
the trace in that instance. For example, if one was debugging a
shutdown of a kernel reboot:
# cd /sys/kernel/tracing
# echo function > instances/boot_map/current_tracer
# reboot
[..]
# cd /sys/kernel/tracing
# tail instances/boot_map/trace
swapper/0-1 [000] d..1. 164.549800: restore_boot_irq_mode <-native_machine_shutdown

swapper/0-1 [000] d..1. 164.549822: acpi_os_write_port <-acpi_reboot
On reboot, the buffer is examined to make sure it is valid. The
validation check even steps through every event to make sure the meta
data of the event is correct. If any test fails, it will simply reset
the buffer, and the buffer will be empty on boot.
- Allow the tracing persistent boot buffer to use the "reserve_mem"
option
Instead of having the admin find a physical address to store the
persistent buffer, which can be very tedious if they have to
administrate several different machines, allow them to use the
"reserve_mem" option that will find a location for them. It is not as
reliable because of KASLR, as the loading of the kernel in different
locations can cause the memory allocated to be inconsistent. Booting
with "nokaslr" can make reserve_mem more reliable.
- Have function graph tracer handle offsets from a previous boot.
The ring buffer output from a previous boot may have different
addresses due to kaslr. Have the function graph tracer handle these
by using the delta from the previous boot to the new boot address
space.
- Only reset the saved meta offset when the buffer is started or reset
In the persistent memory meta data, it holds the previous address
space information, so that it can calculate the delta to have
function tracing work. But this gets updated after being read to hold
the new address space. But if the buffer isn't used for that boot, on
reboot, the delta is now calculated from the previous boot and not
the boot that holds the data in the ring buffer. This causes the
functions not to be shown. Do not save the address space information
of the current kernel until it is being recorded.
- Add a magic variable to test the valid meta data
Add a magic variable in the meta data that can also be used for
validation. The validator of the previous buffer doesn't need this
magic data, but it can be used if the meta data is changed by a new
kernel, which may have the same format that passes the validator but
is used differently. This magic number can also be used as a
"versioning" of the meta data.
- Align user space mapped ring buffer sub buffers to improve TLB
entries
Linus mentioned that the mapped ring buffer sub buffers were
misaligned between the meta page and the sub-buffers, so that if the
sub-buffers were bigger than PAGE_SIZE, it wouldn't allow the TLB to
use bigger entries.

If tracing is enabled for a boot instance, there needs a way to be
able to disable it on boot so that new events do not get entered into
the ring buffer and be mixed with events from a previous boot, as

Those callbacks which haven't been converted were left as-is due to the general ugliness of the changes required to support the static call conversion; we can revisit those callbacks at a future date. - Add the Integrity Policy Enforcement (IPE) LSM This adds a new LSM, Integrity Policy Enforcement (IPE). There is plenty of documentation about IPE in this patches, so I'll refrain from going into too much detail here, but the basic motivation behind IPE is to provide a mechanism such that administrators can restrict execution to only those binaries which come from integrity protected storage, e.g. a dm-verity protected filesystem. You will notice that IPE requires additional LSM hooks in the initramfs, dm-verity, and fs-verity code, with the associated patches carrying ACK/review tags from the associated maintainers. We couldn't find an obvious maintainer for the initramfs code, but the IPE patchset has been widely posted over several years. Both Deven Bowers and Fan Wu have contributed to IPE's development over the past several years, with Fan Wu agreeing to serve as the IPE maintainer moving forward. Once IPE is accepted into your tree, I'll start working with Fan to ensure he has the necessary accounts, keys, etc. so that he can start submitting IPE pull requests to you directly during the next merge window. - Move the lifecycle management of the LSM blobs to the LSM framework Management of the LSM blobs (the LSM state buffers attached to various kernel structs, typically via a void pointer named "security" or similar) has been mixed, some blobs were allocated/managed by individual LSMs, others were managed by the LSM framework itself. Starting with this pull we move management of all the LSM blobs, minus the XFRM blob, into the framework itself, improving consistency across LSMs, and reducing the amount of duplicated code across LSMs. Due to some additional work required to migrate the XFRM blob, it has been left as a todo item for a later date; from a practical standpoint this omission should have little impact as only SELinux provides a XFRM LSM implementation. - Fix problems with the LSM's handling of F_SETOWN The LSM hook for the fcntl(F_SETOWN) operation had a couple of problems: it was racy with itself, and it was disconnected from the associated DAC related logic in such a way that the LSM state could be updated in cases where the DAC state would not. We fix both of these problems by moving the security_file_set_fowner() hook into the same section of code where the DAC attributes are updated. Not only does this resolve the DAC/LSM synchronization issue, but as that code block is protected by a lock, it also resolve the race condition. - Fix potential problems with the security_inode_free() LSM hook Due to use of RCU to protect inodes and the placement of the LSM hook associated with freeing the inode, there is a bit of a challenge when it comes to managing any LSM state associated with an inode. The VFS folks are not open to relocating the LSM hook so we have to get creative when it comes to releasing an inode's LSM state. Traditionally we have used a single LSM callback within the hook that is triggered when the inode is "marked for death", but not actually released due to RCU. Unfortunately, this causes problems for LSMs which want to take an action when the inode's associated LSM state is actually released; so we add an additional LSM callback, inode_free_security_rcu(), that is called when the inode's LSM state is released in the RCU free callback. - Refactor two LSM hooks to better fit the LSM return value patterns The vast majority of the LSM hooks follow the "return 0 on success, negative values on failure" pattern, however, there are a small handful that have unique return value behaviors which has caused confusion in the past and makes it difficult for the BPF verifier to properly vet BPF LSM programs. This includes patches to convert two of these"special" LSM hooks to the common 0/-ERRNO pattern. - Various cleanups and improvements A handful of patches to remove redundant code, better leverage the IS_ERR_OR_NULL() helper, add missing "static" markings, and do some minor style fixups. * tag 'lsm-pr-20240911' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pcmoore/lsm: (40 commits) security: Update file_set_fowner documentation fs: Fix file_set_fowner LSM hook inconsistencies lsm: Use IS_ERR_OR_NULL() helper function lsm: remove LSM_COUNT and LSM_CONFIG_COUNT ipe: Remove duplicated include in ipe.c lsm: replace indirect LSM hook calls with static calls lsm: count the LSMs enabled at compile time kernel: Add helper macros for loop unrolling init/main.c: Initialize early LSMs after arch code, static keys and calls.

Merge tag 'vfs-6.12.procfs' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull procfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the following changes for procfs:
- Add config options and parameters to block forcing memory writes.
This adds a Kconfig option and boot param to allow removing the
FOLL_FORCE flag from /proc/<pid>/mem write calls as this can be
used in various attacks.
The traditional forcing behavior is kept as default because it can
break GDB and some other use cases.
This is the simpler version that you had requested.
- Restrict overmounting of ephemeral entities.
It is currently possible to mount on top of various ephemeral
entities in procfs. This specifically includes magic links. To
recap, magic links are links of the form /proc/<pid>/fd/<nr>. They
serve as references to a target file and during path lookup they
cause a jump to the target path. Such magic links disappear if the
corresponding file descriptor is closed.
Currently it is possible to overmount such magic links. This is
mostly interesting for an attacker that wants to somehow trick a
process into e.g., reopening something that it didn't intend to
reopen or to hide a malicious file descriptor.
But also it risks leaking mounts for long-running processes. When
overmounting a magic link like above, the mount will not be
detached when the file descriptor is closed. Only the target
mountpoint will disappear. Which has the consequence of making it
impossible to unmount that mount afterwards. So the mount will
stick around until the process exits and the /proc/<pid>/ directory
is cleaned up during proc_flush_pid() when the dentries are pruned
and invalidated.
That in turn means it's possible for a program to accidentally leak
mounts and it's also possible to make a task leak mounts without
it's knowledge if the attacker just keeps overmounting things under
/proc/<pid>/fd/<nr>.
Disallow overmounting of such ephemeral entities.
- Cleanup the readdir method naming in some procfs file operations.
- Replace kmalloc() and strcpy() with a simple kmemdup() call"

iommu/amd: Add kernel parameters to limit V1 page-sizes
Add two new kernel command line parameters to limit the page-sizes used for v1 page-tables: nohugepages - Limits page-sizes to 4KiB v2_pgsizes_only - Limits page-sizes to 4Kib/2Mib/1GiB; The same as the sizes used with v2 page-tables This is needed for multiple scenarios. When assigning devices to SEV-SNP guests the IOMMU page-sizes need to match the sizes in the RMP table, otherwise the device will not be able to access all shared memory. Also, some ATS devices do not work properly with arbitrary IO page-sizes as supported by AMD-Vi, so limiting the sizes used by the driver is a suitable workaround. All-in-all, these parameters are only workarounds until the IOMMU core and related APIs gather the ability to negotiate the page-sizes in a better way.

KVM: Add a module param to allow enabling virtualization when KVM is loaded
Add an on-by-default module param, enable_virt_at_load, to let userspace
force virtualization to be enabled in hardware when KVM is initialized,
i.e. just before /dev/kvm is exposed to userspace. Enabling virtualization
during KVM initialization allows userspace to avoid the additional latency
when creating/destroying the first/last VM (or more specifically, on the
0=>1 and 1=>0 edges of creation/destruction).
Now that KVM uses the cpuhp framework to do per-CPU enabling, the latency
could be non-trivial as the cpuhup bringup/teardown is serialized across
CPUs, e.g. the latency could be problematic for use case that need to spin
up VMs quickly.

mm: override mTHP "enabled" defaults at kernel cmdline
Add thp_anon= cmdline parameter to allow specifying the default enablement of each supported anon THP size. The parameter accepts the following format and can be provided multiple times to configure each size: thp_anon=<size>,<size>[KMG]:<value>;<size>-<size>[KMG]:<value> An example: thp_anon=16K-64K:always;128K,512K:inherit;256K:madvise;1M-2M:never See Documentation/admin-guide/mm/transhuge.rst for more details. Configuring the defaults at boot time is useful to allow early user space to take advantage of mTHP before its been configured through sysfs.

proc: add config & param to block forcing mem writes
This adds a Kconfig option and boot param to allow removing the FOLL_FORCE flag from /proc/pid/mem write calls because it can be abused. The traditional forcing behavior is kept as default because it can break GDB and some other use cases. Previously we tried a more sophisticated approach allowing distributions to fine-tune /proc/pid/mem behavior, however that got NAK-ed by Linus [1], who prefers this simpler approach with semantics also easier to understand for users.

tracing: Have trace_printk not use binary prints if boot buffer
If the persistent boot mapped ring buffer is used for trace_printk(), force it to not use the binary versions. trace_printk() by default uses bin_printf() that only saves the pointer to the format and not the format itself inside the ring buffer. But for a persistent buffer that is read after reboot, the pointers to the format strings may not be the same, or worse, not even exist! Instead, just force the more robust, but slower, version that does the formatting before saving into the ring buffer. The boot mapped buffer can now be used for trace_printk and friends! Using the trace_printk() and the persistent buffer was used to debug the issue with the osnoise tracer: Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240822103443.6a6ae051@gandalf.local.home/ Cc: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org> Cc: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> Cc: Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Vincent Donnefort <vdonnefort@google.com> Cc: Joel Fernandes <joel@joelfernandes.org> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: Vineeth Pillai <vineeth@bitbyteword.org> Cc: Beau Belgrave <beaub@linux.microsoft.com> Cc: Alexander Graf <graf@amazon.com> Cc: Baoquan He <bhe@redhat.com> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de> Cc: "Paul E.

tracing: Allow trace_printk() to go to other instance buffers
Currently, trace_printk() just goes to the top level ring buffer. But there may be times that it should go to one of the instances created by the kernel command line. Add a new trace_instance flag: traceprintk (also can use "printk" or "trace_printk" as people tend to forget the actual flag name). trace_instance=foo^traceprintk Will assign the trace_printk to this buffer at boot up.

tracing: Add "traceoff" flag to boot time tracing instances
Add a "flags" delimiter (^) to the "trace_instance" kernel command line parameter, and add the "traceoff" flag. The format is: trace_instance=<name>[^<flag1>[^<flag2>]][@<memory>][,<events>] The code allows for more than one flag to be added, but currently only "traceoff" is done so. The motivation for this change came from debugging with the persistent ring buffer and having trace_printk() writing to it. The trace_printk calls are always enabled, and the boot after the crash was having the unwanted trace_printks from the current boot inject into the ring buffer with the trace_printks of the crash kernel, making the output very confusing.

tracing: Allow boot instances to use reserve_mem boot memory
Allow boot instances to use memory reserved by the reserve_mem boot option. reserve_mem=12M:4096:trace trace_instance=boot_mapped@trace The above will allocate 12 megs with 4096 alignment and label it "trace". The second parameter will create a "boot_mapped" instance and use the memory reserved and labeled as "trace" as the memory for the ring buffer. That will create an instance called "boot_mapped": /sys/kernel/tracing/instances/boot_mapped Note, because the ring buffer is using a defined memory ranged, it will act just like a memory mapped ring buffer. It will not have a snapshot buffer, as it can't swap out the buffer. The snapshot files as well as any tracers that uses a snapshot will not be present in the boot_mapped instance. Also note that reserve_mem is not reliable in acquiring the same physical memory at each soft reboot. It is possible that KALSR could map the kernel at the previous boot memory location forcing the reserve_mem to return a different memory location. In this case, the previous ring buffer will be lost.

rcu: Summarize RCU CPU stall warnings during CSD-lock stalls
During CSD-lock stalls, the additional information output by RCU CPU stall warnings is usually redundant, flooding the console for not good reason. However, this has been the way things work for a few years. This commit therefore adds an rcutree.csd_lock_suppress_rcu_stall kernel boot parameter that causes RCU CPU stall warnings to be abbreviated to a single line when there is at least one CPU that has been stuck waiting for CSD lock for more than five seconds. To make this abbreviated message happen with decent probability: tools/testing/selftests/rcutorture/bin/kvm.sh --allcpus --duration 8 \ --configs "2*TREE01" --kconfig "CONFIG_CSD_LOCK_WAIT_DEBUG=y" \ --bootargs "csdlock_debug=1 rcutorture.stall_cpu=200 \ rcutorture.stall_cpu_holdoff=120 rcutorture.stall_cpu_irqsoff=1 \ rcutree.csd_lock_suppress_rcu_stall=1 \ rcupdate.rcu_exp_cpu_stall_timeout=5000" --trust-make [ paulmck: Apply kernel test robot feedback. ] Signed-off-by: Paul E.

- 875fa64577da ("mm/hugetlb_vmemmap: fix race with speculative PFN
walkers") is known to cause a performance regression (https://lore.kernel.org/all/3acefad9-96e5-4681-8014-827d6be71c7a@linux.ibm.com/T/#mfa809800a7862fb5bdf834c6f71a3a5113eb83ff). Yu has a fix which I'll send along later via the hotfixes branch. - In the series "mm: Avoid possible overflows in dirty throttling" Jan Kara addresses a couple of issues in the writeback throttling code. These fixes are also targetted at -stable kernels. - Ryusuke Konishi's series "nilfs2: fix potential issues related to reserved inodes" does that. This should actually be in the mm-nonmm-stable tree, along with the many other nilfs2 patches. My bad. - More folio conversions from Kefeng Wang in the series "mm: convert to folio_alloc_mpol()" - Kemeng Shi has sent some cleanups to the writeback code in the series "Add helper functions to remove repeated code and improve readability of cgroup writeback" - Kairui Song has made the swap code a little smaller and a little faster in the series "mm/swap: clean up and optimize swap cache index". - In the series "mm/memory: cleanly support zeropage in vm_insert_page*(), vm_map_pages*() and vmf_insert_mixed()" David Hildenbrand has reworked the rather sketchy handling of the use of the zeropage in MAP_SHARED mappings. I don't see any runtime effects here - more a cleanup/understandability/maintainablity thing. - Dev Jain has improved selftests/mm/va_high_addr_switch.c's handling of higher addresses, for aarch64. The (poorly named) series is "Restructure va_high_addr_switch". - The core TLB handling code gets some cleanups and possible slight optimizations in Bang Li's series "Add update_mmu_tlb_range() to simplify code". - Jane Chu has improved the handling of our fake-an-unrecoverable-memory-error testing feature MADV_HWPOISON in the series "Enhance soft hwpoison handling and injection". - Jeff Johnson has sent a billion patches everywhere to add MODULE_DESCRIPTION() to everything. Some landed in this pull. - In the series "mm: cleanup MIGRATE_SYNC_NO_COPY mode", Kefeng Wang has simplified migration's use of hardware-offload memory copying. - Yosry Ahmed performs more folio API conversions in his series "mm: zswap: trivial folio conversions". - In the series "large folios swap-in: handle refault cases first", Chuanhua Han inches us forward in the handling of large pages in the swap code. This is a cleanup and optimization, working toward the end objective of full support of large folio swapin/out. - In the series "mm,swap: cleanup VMA based swap readahead window calculation", Huang Ying has contributed some cleanups and a possible fixlet to his VMA based swap readahead code. - In the series "add mTHP support for anonymous shmem" Baolin Wang has taught anonymous shmem mappings to use multisize THP. By default this is a no-op - users must opt in vis sysfs controls. Dramatic improvements in pagefault latency are realized. - David Hildenbrand has some cleanups to our remaining use of page_mapcount() in the series "fs/proc: move page_mapcount() to fs/proc/internal.h". - David also has some highmem accounting cleanups in the series "mm/highmem: don't track highmem pages manually". - Build-time fixes and cleanups from John Hubbard in the series "cleanups, fixes, and progress towards avoiding "make headers"". - Cleanups and consolidation of the core pagemap handling from Barry Song in the series "mm: introduce pmd|pte_needs_soft_dirty_wp helpers and utilize them". - Lance Yang's series "Reclaim lazyfree THP without splitting" has reduced the latency of the reclaim of pmd-mapped THPs under fairly common circumstances. A 10x speedup is seen in a microbenchmark. It does this by punting to aother CPU but I guess that's a win unless all CPUs are pegged. - hugetlb_cgroup cleanups from Xiu Jianfeng in the series "mm/hugetlb_cgroup: rework on cftypes". - Miaohe Lin's series "Some cleanups for memory-failure" does just that thing. - Is anyone reading this stuff? If so, email me! - Someone other than SeongJae has developed a DAMON feature in Honggyu Kim's series "DAMON based tiered memory management for CXL memory". This adds DAMON features which may be used to help determine the efficiency of our placement of CXL/PCIe attached DRAM. - DAMON user API centralization and simplificatio work in SeongJae Park's series "mm/damon: introduce DAMON parameters online commit function". - In the series "mm: page_type, zsmalloc and page_mapcount_reset()" David Hildenbrand does some maintenance work on zsmalloc - partially modernizing its use of pageframe fields. - Kefeng Wang provides more folio conversions in the series "mm: remove page_maybe_dma_pinned() and page_mkclean()". - More cleanup from David Hildenbrand, this time in the series "mm/memory_hotplug: use PageOffline() instead of PageReserved() for !ZONE_DEVICE". It "enlightens memory hotplug more about PageOffline() pages" and permits the removal of some virtio-mem hacks. - Barry Song's series "mm: clarify folio_add_new_anon_rmap() and __folio_add_anon_rmap()" is a cleanup to the anon folio handling in preparation for mTHP (multisize THP) swapin. - Kefeng Wang's series "mm: improve clear and copy user folio" implements more folio conversions, this time in the area of large folio userspace copying. - The series "Docs/mm/damon/maintaier-profile: document a mailing tool and community meetup series" tells people how to get better involved with other DAMON developers. From SeongJae Park. - A large series ("kmsan: Enable on s390") from Ilya Leoshkevich does that. - David Hildenbrand sends along more cleanups, this time against the migration code. The series is "mm/migrate: move NUMA hinting fault folio isolation + checks under PTL". - Jan Kara has found quite a lot of strangenesses and minor errors in the readahead code. He addresses this in the series "mm: Fix various readahead quirks". - SeongJae Park's series "selftests/damon: test DAMOS tried regions and {min,max}_nr_regions" adds features and addresses errors in DAMON's self testing code. - Gavin Shan has found a userspace-triggerable WARN in the pagecache code. The series "mm/filemap: Limit page cache size to that supported by xarray" addresses this. The series is marked cc:stable. - Chengming Zhou's series "mm/ksm: cmp_and_merge_page() optimizations and cleanup" cleans up and slightly optimizes KSM. - Roman Gushchin has separated the memcg-v1 and memcg-v2 code - lots of code motion. The series (which also makes the memcg-v1 code Kconfigurable) are "mm: memcg: separate legacy cgroup v1 code and put under config option" and "mm: memcg: put cgroup v1-specific memcg data under CONFIG_MEMCG_V1" - Dan Schatzberg's series "Add swappiness argument to memory.reclaim" adds an additional feature to this cgroup-v2 control file. - The series "Userspace controls soft-offline pages" from Jiaqi Yan permits userspace to stop the kernel's automatic treatment of excessive correctable memory errors. In order to permit userspace to monitor and handle this situation. - Kefeng Wang's series "mm: migrate: support poison recover from migrate folio" teaches the kernel to appropriately handle migration from poisoned source folios rather than simply panicing. - SeongJae Park's series "Docs/damon: minor fixups and improvements" does those things. - In the series "mm/zsmalloc: change back to per-size_class lock" Chengming Zhou improves zsmalloc's scalability and memory utilization. - Vivek Kasireddy's series "mm/gup: Introduce memfd_pin_folios() for pinning memfd folios" makes the GUP code use FOLL_PIN rather than bare refcount increments. So these paes can first be moved aside if they reside in the movable zone or a CMA block. - Andrii Nakryiko has added a binary ioctl()-based API to /proc/pid/maps for much faster reading of vma information. The series is "query VMAs from /proc/<pid>/maps". - In the series "mm: introduce per-order mTHP split counters" Lance Yang improves the kernel's presentation of developer information related to multisize THP splitting. - Michael Ellerman has developed the series "Reimplement huge pages without hugepd on powerpc (8xx, e500, book3s/64)". This permits userspace to use all available huge page sizes. - In the series "revert unconditional slab and page allocator fault injection calls" Vlastimil Babka removes a performance-affecting and not very useful feature from slab fault injection. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iHUEABYKAB0WIQTTMBEPP41GrTpTJgfdBJ7gKXxAjgUCZp2C+QAKCRDdBJ7gKXxA joTkAQDvjqOoFStqk4GU3OXMYB7WCU/ZQMFG0iuu1EEwTVDZ4QEA8CnG7seek1R3 xEoo+vw0sWWeLV3qzsxnCA1BJ8cTJA8= =z0Lf -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'mm-stable-2024-07-21-14-50' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton: - In the series "mm: Avoid possible overflows in dirty throttling" Jan Kara addresses a couple of issues in the writeback throttling code. These fixes are also targetted at -stable kernels. - Ryusuke Konishi's series "nilfs2: fix potential issues related to reserved inodes" does that. This should actually be in the mm-nonmm-stable tree, along with the many other nilfs2 patches. My bad. - More folio conversions from Kefeng Wang in the series "mm: convert to folio_alloc_mpol()" - Kemeng Shi has sent some cleanups to the writeback code in the series "Add helper functions to remove repeated code and improve readability of cgroup writeback" - Kairui Song has made the swap code a little smaller and a little faster in the series "mm/swap: clean up and optimize swap cache index". - In the series "mm/memory: cleanly support zeropage in vm_insert_page*(), vm_map_pages*() and vmf_insert_mixed()" David Hildenbrand has reworked the rather sketchy handling of the use of the zeropage in MAP_SHARED mappings. I don't see any runtime effects here - more a cleanup/understandability/maintainablity thing. - Dev Jain has improved selftests/mm/va_high_addr_switch.c's handling of higher addresses, for aarch64. The (poorly named) series is "Restructure va_high_addr_switch". - The core TLB handling code gets some cleanups and possible slight optimizations in Bang Li's series "Add update_mmu_tlb_range() to simplify code". - Jane Chu has improved the handling of our fake-an-unrecoverable-memory-error testing feature MADV_HWPOISON in the series "Enhance soft hwpoison handling and injection". - Jeff Johnson has sent a billion patches everywhere to add MODULE_DESCRIPTION() to everything. Some landed in this pull. - In the series "mm: cleanup MIGRATE_SYNC_NO_COPY mode", Kefeng Wang has simplified migration's use of hardware-offload memory copying. - Yosry Ahmed performs more folio API conversions in his series "mm: zswap: trivial folio conversions". - In the series "large folios swap-in: handle refault cases first", Chuanhua Han inches us forward in the handling of large pages in the swap code. This is a cleanup and optimization, working toward the end objective of full support of large folio swapin/out. - In the series "mm,swap: cleanup VMA based swap readahead window calculation", Huang Ying has contributed some cleanups and a possible fixlet to his VMA based swap readahead code. - In the series "add mTHP support for anonymous shmem" Baolin Wang has taught anonymous shmem mappings to use multisize THP. By default this is a no-op - users must opt in vis sysfs controls. Dramatic improvements in pagefault latency are realized. - David Hildenbrand has some cleanups to our remaining use of page_mapcount() in the series "fs/proc: move page_mapcount() to fs/proc/internal.h". - David also has some highmem accounting cleanups in the series "mm/highmem: don't track highmem pages manually". - Build-time fixes and cleanups from John Hubbard in the series "cleanups, fixes, and progress towards avoiding "make headers"". - Cleanups and consolidation of the core pagemap handling from Barry Song in the series "mm: introduce pmd|pte_needs_soft_dirty_wp helpers and utilize them". - Lance Yang's series "Reclaim lazyfree THP without splitting" has reduced the latency of the reclaim of pmd-mapped THPs under fairly common circumstances. A 10x speedup is seen in a microbenchmark. It does this by punting to aother CPU but I guess that's a win unless all CPUs are pegged. - hugetlb_cgroup cleanups from Xiu Jianfeng in the series "mm/hugetlb_cgroup: rework on cftypes". - Miaohe Lin's series "Some cleanups for memory-failure" does just that thing. - Someone other than SeongJae has developed a DAMON feature in Honggyu Kim's series "DAMON based tiered memory management for CXL memory". This adds DAMON features which may be used to help determine the efficiency of our placement of CXL/PCIe attached DRAM. - DAMON user API centralization and simplificatio work in SeongJae Park's series "mm/damon: introduce DAMON parameters online commit function". - In the series "mm: page_type, zsmalloc and page_mapcount_reset()" David Hildenbrand does some maintenance work on zsmalloc - partially modernizing its use of pageframe fields. - Kefeng Wang provides more folio conversions in the series "mm: remove page_maybe_dma_pinned() and page_mkclean()". - More cleanup from David Hildenbrand, this time in the series "mm/memory_hotplug: use PageOffline() instead of PageReserved() for !ZONE_DEVICE".

ARM:
* Initial infrastructure for shadow stage-2 MMUs, as part of nested virtualization enablement * Support for userspace changes to the guest CTR_EL0 value, enabling (in part) migration of VMs between heterogenous hardware * Fixes + improvements to pKVM's FF-A proxy, adding support for v1.1 of the protocol * FPSIMD/SVE support for nested, including merged trap configuration and exception routing * New command-line parameter to control the WFx trap behavior under KVM * Introduce kCFI hardening in the EL2 hypervisor * Fixes + cleanups for handling presence/absence of FEAT_TCRX * Miscellaneous fixes + documentation updates LoongArch: * Add paravirt steal time support. * Add support for KVM_DIRTY_LOG_INITIALLY_SET. * Add perf kvm-stat support for loongarch. RISC-V: * Redirect AMO load/store access fault traps to guest * perf kvm stat support * Use guest files for IMSIC virtualization, when available ONE_REG support for the Zimop, Zcmop, Zca, Zcf, Zcd, Zcb and Zawrs ISA extensions is coming through the RISC-V tree. s390: * Assortment of tiny fixes which are not time critical x86: * Fixes for Xen emulation. * Add a global struct to consolidate tracking of host values, e.g. EFER * Add KVM_CAP_X86_APIC_BUS_CYCLES_NS to allow configuring the effective APIC bus frequency, because TDX. * Print the name of the APICv/AVIC inhibits in the relevant tracepoint. * Clean up KVM's handling of vendor specific emulation to consistently act on "compatible with Intel/AMD", versus checking for a specific vendor. * Drop MTRR virtualization, and instead always honor guest PAT on CPUs that support self-snoop. * Update to the newfangled Intel CPU FMS infrastructure. * Don't advertise IA32_PERF_GLOBAL_OVF_CTRL as an MSR-to-be-saved, as it reads '0' and writes from userspace are ignored. * Misc cleanups x86 - MMU: * Small cleanups, renames and refactoring extracted from the upcoming Intel TDX support. * Don't allocate kvm_mmu_page.shadowed_translation for shadow pages that can't hold leafs SPTEs. * Unconditionally drop mmu_lock when allocating TDP MMU page tables for eager page splitting, to avoid stalling vCPUs when splitting huge pages. * Bug the VM instead of simply warning if KVM tries to split a SPTE that is non-present or not-huge. KVM is guaranteed to end up in a broken state because the callers fully expect a valid SPTE, it's all but dangerous to let more MMU changes happen afterwards. x86 - AMD: * Make per-CPU save_area allocations NUMA-aware. * Force sev_es_host_save_area() to be inlined to avoid calling into an instrumentable function from noinstr code. * Base support for running SEV-SNP guests. API-wise, this includes a new KVM_X86_SNP_VM type, encrypting/measure the initial image into guest memory, and finalizing it before launching it. Internally, there are some gmem/mmu hooks needed to prepare gmem-allocated pages before mapping them into guest private memory ranges. This includes basic support for attestation guest requests, enough to say that KVM supports the GHCB 2.0 specification. There is no support yet for loading into the firmware those signing keys to be used for attestation requests, and therefore no need yet for the host to provide certificate data for those keys. To support fetching certificate data from userspace, a new KVM exit type will be needed to handle fetching the certificate from userspace. An attempt to define a new KVM_EXIT_COCO/KVM_EXIT_COCO_REQ_CERTS exit type to handle this was introduced in v1 of this patchset, but is still being discussed by community, so for now this patchset only implements a stub version of SNP Extended Guest Requests that does not provide certificate data. x86 - Intel: * Remove an unnecessary EPT TLB flush when enabling hardware. * Fix a series of bugs that cause KVM to fail to detect nested pending posted interrupts as valid wake eents for a vCPU executing HLT in L2 (with HLT-exiting disable by L1). * KVM: x86: Suppress MMIO that is triggered during task switch emulation Explicitly suppress userspace emulated MMIO exits that are triggered when emulating a task switch as KVM doesn't support userspace MMIO during complex (multi-step) emulation. Silently ignoring the exit request can result in the WARN_ON_ONCE(vcpu->mmio_needed) firing if KVM exits to userspace for some other reason prior to purging mmio_needed. See commit |

Merge tag 'pci-v6.11-changes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pci/pci
Pull pci updates from Bjorn Helgaas:
"Enumeration:
- Define PCIE_RESET_CONFIG_DEVICE_WAIT_MS for the generic 100ms
required after reset before config access (Kevin Xie)
- Define PCIE_T_RRS_READY_MS for the generic 100ms required after
reset before config access (probably should be unified with
PCIE_RESET_CONFIG_DEVICE_WAIT_MS) (Damien Le Moal)
Resource management:
- Rename find_resource() to find_resource_space() to be more
descriptive (Ilpo Järvinen)
- Export find_resource_space() for use by PCI core, which needs to
learn whether there is available space for a bridge window (Ilpo
Järvinen)
- Prevent double counting of resources so window size doesn't grow on
each remove/rescan cycle (Ilpo Järvinen)
- Relax bridge window sizing algorithm so a device doesn't break
simply because it was removed and rescanned (Ilpo Järvinen)
- Evaluate the ACPI PRESERVE_BOOT_CONFIG _DSM in
pci_register_host_bridge() (not acpi_pci_root_create()) so we can
unify it with similar DT functionality (Vidya Sagar)
- Extend use of DT "linux,pci-probe-only" property so it works
per-host bridge as well as globally (Vidya Sagar)
- Unify support for ACPI PRESERVE_BOOT_CONFIG _DSM and the DT
"linux,pci-probe-only" property in pci_preserve_config() (Vidya
Sagar)
Driver binding:
- Add devres infrastructure for managed request and map of partial
BAR resources (Philipp Stanner)
- Deprecate pcim_iomap_table() because uses like
"pcim_iomap_table()[0]" have no good way to return errors (Philipp
Stanner)
- Add an always-managed pcim_request_region() for use instead of
pci_request_region() and similar, which are sometimes managed
depending on whether pcim_enable_device() has been called
previously (Philipp Stanner)
- Reimplement pcim_set_mwi() so it doesn't need to keep store MWI
state (Philipp Stanner)
- Add pcim_intx() for use instead of pci_intx(), which is sometimes
managed depending on whether pcim_enable_device() has been called
previously (Philipp Stanner)
- Add managed pcim_iomap_range() to allow mapping of a partial BAR
(Philipp Stanner)
- Fix a devres mapping leak in drm/vboxvideo (Philipp Stanner)
Error handling:
- Add missing bridge locking in device reset path and add a warning
for other possible lock issues (Dan Williams)
- Fix use-after-free on concurrent DPC and hot-removal (Lukas Wunner)
Power management:
- Disable AER and DPC during suspend to avoid spurious wakeups if
they share an interrupt with PME (Kai-Heng Feng)
PCIe native device hotplug:
- Detect if a device was removed or replaced during system sleep so
we don't assume a new device is the one that used to be there
(Lukas Wunner)
Virtualization:
- Add an ACS quirk for Broadcom BCM5760X multi-function NIC; it
prevents transactions between functions even though it doesn't
advertise ACS, so the functions can be attached individually via
VFIO (Ajit Khaparde)
Peer-to-peer DMA:
- Add a "pci=config_acs=" kernel command-line parameter to relax
default ACS settings to enable additional peer-to-peer
configurations. Requires expert knowledge of topology and ACS
operation (Vidya Sagar)
Endpoint framework:
- Remove unused struct pci_epf_group.type_group (Christophe JAILLET)
- Fix error handling in vpci_scan_bus() and epf_ntb_epc_cleanup()
(Dan Carpenter)
- Make struct pci_epc_class constant (Greg Kroah-Hartman)
- Remove unused pci_endpoint_test_bar_{readl,writel} functions
(Jiapeng Chong)
- Rename "BME" to "Bus Master Enable" (Manivannan Sadhasivam)
- Rename struct pci_epc_event_ops.core_init() callback to epc_init()
(Manivannan Sadhasivam)
- Move DMA init to MHI .epc_init() callback for uniformity
(Manivannan Sadhasivam)
- Cancel EPF test delayed work when link goes down (Manivannan
Sadhasivam)
- Add struct pci_epc_event_ops.epc_deinit() callback for cleanup
needed on fundamental reset (Manivannan Sadhasivam)
- Add 64KB alignment to endpoint test to support Rockchip rk3588
(Niklas Cassel)
- Optimize endpoint test by using memcpy() instead of readl() (Niklas
Cassel)
Device tree bindings:
- Add generic "ats-supported" property to advertise that a PCIe Root
Complex supports ATS (Jean-Philippe Brucker)
Amazon Annapurna Labs PCIe controller driver:
- Validate IORESOURCE_BUS presence to avoid NULL pointer dereference
(Aleksandr Mishin)
Axis ARTPEC-6 PCIe controller driver:
- Rename .cpu_addr_fixup() parameter to reflect that it is a PCI
address, not a CPU address (Niklas Cassel)
Freescale i.MX6 PCIe controller driver:
- Convert to agnostic GPIO API (Andy Shevchenko)
Freescale Layerscape PCIe controller driver:
- Make struct mobiveil_rp_ops constant (Christophe JAILLET)
- Use new generic dw_pcie_ep_linkdown() to handle link-down events
(Manivannan Sadhasivam)
HiSilicon Kirin PCIe controller driver:
- Convert to agnostic GPIO API (Andy Shevchenko)
- Use _scoped() iterator for OF children to ensure refcounts are
decremented at loop exit (Javier Carrasco)
Intel VMD host bridge driver:
- Create sysfs "domain" symlink before downstream devices are exposed
to userspace by pci_bus_add_devices() (Jiwei Sun)
Loongson PCIe controller driver:
- Enable MSI when LS7A is used with new CPUs that have integrated
PCIe Root Complex, e.g., Loongson-3C6000, so downstream devices can
use MSI (Huacai Chen)
Microchip AXI PolarFlare PCIe controller driver:
- Move pcie-microchip-host.c to a new PLDA directory (Minda Chen)

Nothing hugely exciting happening in the documentation tree this time
around, mostly more of the usual:
- More Spanish, Italian, and Chinese translations
- A new script, scripts/checktransupdate.py, can be used to see which
commits have touched an (English) document since a given translation was
last updated.
- A couple of "best practices" suggestions (on Link: tags and off-list
discussions) that were not entirely at consensus level, but I concluded
they were close enough to accept.
- Some nice cleanups removing documentation for kernel parameters that have
not been recognized for ... a long time.

Pull EFI updates from Ard Biesheuvel:
"Note the removal of the EFI fake memory map support - this is believed
to be unused and no longer worth supporting. However, we could easily
bring it back if needed.
With recent developments regarding confidential VMs and unaccepted
memory, combined with kexec, creating a known inaccurate view of the
firmware's memory map and handing it to the OS is a feature we can
live without, hence the removal. Alternatively, I could imagine making
this feature mutually exclusive with those confidential VM related
features, but let's try simply removing it first.

- Drop support for the 'fake' EFI memory map on x86

PCI: Extend ACS configurability
PCIe ACS settings control the level of isolation and the possible P2P paths between devices. With greater isolation the kernel will create smaller iommu_groups and with less isolation there is more HW that can achieve P2P transfers. From a virtualization perspective all devices in the same iommu_group must be assigned to the same VM as they lack security isolation. There is no way for the kernel to automatically know the correct ACS settings for any given system and workload. Existing command line options (e.g., disable_acs_redir) allow only for large scale change, disabling all isolation, but this is not sufficient for more complex cases. Add a kernel command-line option 'config_acs' to directly control all the ACS bits for specific devices, which allows the operator to setup the right level of isolation to achieve the desired P2P configuration. The definition is future proof; when new ACS bits are added to the spec the open syntax can be extended. ACS needs to be setup early in the kernel boot as the ACS settings affect how iommu_groups are formed. iommu_group formation is a one time event during initial device discovery, so changing ACS bits after kernel boot can result in an inaccurate view of the iommu_groups compared to the current isolation configuration. ACS applies to PCIe Downstream Ports and multi-function devices. The default ACS settings are strict and deny any direct traffic between two functions. This results in the smallest iommu_group the HW can support. Frequently these values result in slow or non-working P2PDMA. ACS offers a range of security choices controlling how traffic is allowed to go directly between two devices. Some popular choices: - Full prevention - Translated requests can be direct, with various options - Asymmetric direct traffic, A can reach B but not the reverse - All traffic can be direct Along with some other less common ones for special topologies. The intention is that this option would be used with expert knowledge of the HW capability and workload to achieve the desired configuration.

When this mode is enabled, kernel will accept ELF file compiled for both NaN 2008 and NaN legacy, but if hardware does not have capability to match ELF's NaN mode, __own_fpu will fail for corresponding thread and fpuemu will then kick in. This mode trade performance for correctness, while maintaining support for both NaN mode regardless of hardware capability.

LoongArch: KVM: Add PV steal time support in guest side
Per-cpu struct kvm_steal_time is added here, its size is 64 bytes and also defined as 64 bytes, so that the whole structure is in one physical page. When a VCPU is online, function pv_enable_steal_time() is called. This function will pass guest physical address of struct kvm_steal_time and tells hypervisor to enable steal time. When a vcpu is offline, physical address is set as 0 and tells hypervisor to disable steal time. Here is an output of vmstat on guest when there is workload on both host and guest. It shows steal time stat information. procs -----------memory---------- -----io---- -system-- ------cpu----- r b swpd free inact active bi bo in cs us sy id wa st 15 1 0 7583616 184112 72208 20 0 162 52 31 6 43 0 20 17 0 0 7583616 184704 72192 0 0 6318 6885 5 60 8 5 22 16 0 0 7583616 185392 72144 0 0 1766 1081 0 49 0 1 50 16 0 0 7583616 184816 72304 0 0 6300 6166 4 62 12 2 20 18 0 0 7583632 184480 72240 0 0 2814 1754 2 58 4 1 35 Signed-off-by: Bibo Mao <maobibo@loongson.cn> Signed-off-by: Huacai Chen <chenhuacai@loongson.cn> |

rcu: Add rcutree.nohz_full_patience_delay to reduce nohz_full OS jitter
If a CPU is running either a userspace application or a guest OS in nohz_full mode, it is possible for a system call to occur just as an RCU grace period is starting. If that CPU also has the scheduling-clock tick enabled for any reason (such as a second runnable task), and if the system was booted with rcutree.use_softirq=0, then RCU can add insult to injury by awakening that CPU's rcuc kthread, resulting in yet another task and yet more OS jitter due to switching to that task, running it, and switching back. In addition, in the common case where that system call is not of excessively long duration, awakening the rcuc task is pointless. This pointlessness is due to the fact that the CPU will enter an extended quiescent state upon returning to the userspace application or guest OS. In this case, the rcuc kthread cannot do anything that the main RCU grace-period kthread cannot do on its behalf, at least if it is given a few additional milliseconds (for example, given the time duration specified by rcutree.jiffies_till_first_fqs, give or take scheduling delays). This commit therefore adds a rcutree.nohz_full_patience_delay kernel boot parameter that specifies the grace period age (in milliseconds, rounded to jiffies) before which RCU will refrain from awakening the rcuc kthread. Preliminary experimentation suggests a value of 1000, that is, one second. Increasing rcutree.nohz_full_patience_delay will increase grace-period latency and in turn increase memory footprint, so systems with constrained memory might choose a smaller value. Systems with less-aggressive OS-jitter requirements might choose the default value of zero, which keeps the traditional immediate-wakeup behavior, thus avoiding increases in grace-period latency.

vmalloc: modify the alloc_vmap_area() error message for better diagnostics
'vmap allocation for size %lu failed: use vmalloc=<size> to increase size' The above warning is seen in the kernel functionality for allocation of the restricted virtual memory range till exhaustion. This message is misleading because 'vmalloc=' is supported on arm32, x86 platforms and is not a valid kernel parameter on a number of other platforms (in particular its not supported on arm64, alpha, loongarch, arc, csky, hexagon, microblaze, mips, nios2, openrisc, parisc, m64k, powerpc, riscv, sh, um, xtensa, s390, sparc). With the update, the output gets modified to include the function parameters along with the start and end of the virtual memory range allowed. The warning message after fix on kernel version 6.10.0-rc1+: vmalloc_node_range for size 33619968 failed: Address range restricted between 0xffff800082640000 - 0xffff800084650000 Backtrace with the misleading error message: vmap allocation for size 33619968 failed: use vmalloc=<size> to increase size insmod: vmalloc error: size 33554432, vm_struct allocation failed, mode:0xcc0(GFP_KERNEL), nodemask=(null),cpuset=/,mems_allowed=0 CPU: 46 PID: 1977 Comm: insmod Tainted: G E 6.10.0-rc1+ #79 Hardware name: INGRASYS Yushan Server iSystem TEMP-S000141176+10/Yushan Motherboard, BIOS 2.10.20230517 (SCP: xxx) yyyy/mm/dd Call trace: dump_backtrace+0xa0/0x128 show_stack+0x20/0x38 dump_stack_lvl+0x78/0x90 dump_stack+0x18/0x28 warn_alloc+0x12c/0x1b8 __vmalloc_node_range_noprof+0x28c/0x7e0 custom_init+0xb4/0xfff8 [test_driver] do_one_initcall+0x60/0x290 do_init_module+0x68/0x250 load_module+0x236c/0x2428 init_module_from_file+0x8c/0xd8 __arm64_sys_finit_module+0x1b4/0x388 invoke_syscall+0x78/0x108 el0_svc_common.constprop.0+0x48/0xf0 do_el0_svc+0x24/0x38 el0_svc+0x3c/0x130 el0t_64_sync_handler+0x100/0x130 el0t_64_sync+0x190/0x198 [Shubhang@os.amperecomputing.com: v5] Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/CH2PR01MB5894B0182EA0B28DF2EFB916F5C72@CH2PR01MB5894.prod.exchangelabs.com Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/MN2PR01MB59025CC02D1D29516527A693F5C62@MN2PR01MB5902.prod.exchangelabs.com Signed-off-by: Shubhang Kaushik <shubhang@os.amperecomputing.com> Reviewed-by: Christoph Lameter (Ampere) <cl@linux.com> Cc: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux.com> Cc: Guo Ren <guoren@kernel.org> Cc: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net> Cc: Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) <willy@infradead.org> Cc: Uladzislau Rezki (Sony) <urezki@gmail.com> Cc: Xiongwei Song <xiongwei.song@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> |

x86/efi: Drop support for fake EFI memory maps
Between kexec and confidential VM support, handling the EFI memory maps correctly on x86 is already proving to be rather difficult (as opposed to other EFI architectures which manage to never modify the EFI memory map to begin with) EFI fake memory map support is essentially a development hack (for testing new support for the 'special purpose' and 'more reliable' EFI memory attributes) that leaked into production code. The regions marked in this manner are not actually recognized as such by the firmware itself or the EFI stub (and never have), and marking memory as 'more reliable' seems rather futile if the underlying memory is just ordinary RAM. Marking memory as 'special purpose' in this way is also dubious, but may be in use in production code nonetheless. However, the same should be achievable by using the memmap= command line option with the ! operator. EFI fake memmap support is not enabled by any of the major distros (Debian, Fedora, SUSE, Ubuntu) and does not exist on other architectures, so let's drop support for it.

mm/memblock: Add "reserve_mem" to reserved named memory at boot up
In order to allow for requesting a memory region that can be used for
things like pstore on multiple machines where the memory layout is not the
same, add a new option to the kernel command line called "reserve_mem".
The format is: reserve_mem=nn:align:name
Where it will find nn amount of memory at the given alignment of align.
The name field is to allow another subsystem to retrieve where the memory
was found. For example:
reserve_mem=12M:4096:oops ramoops.mem_name=oops
Where ramoops.mem_name will tell ramoops that memory was reserved for it
via the reserve_mem option and it can find it by calling:
if (reserve_mem_find_by_name("oops", &start, &size)) {
// start holds the start address and size holds the size given
This is typically used for systems that do not wipe the RAM, and this
command line will try to reserve the same physical memory on soft reboots.
Note, it is not guaranteed to be the same location. For example, if KASLR
places the kernel at the location of where the RAM reservation was from a
previous boot, the new reservation will be at a different location. Any
subsystem using this feature must add a way to verify that the contents of
the physical memory is from a previous boot, as there may be cases where
the memory will not be located at the same location.
Not all systems may work either. There could be bit flips if the reboot
goes through the BIOS. Using kexec to reboot the machine is likely to
have better results in such cases.

Revert "mm: init_mlocked_on_free_v3"
There was insufficient review and no agreement that this is the right
approach.
There are serious flaws with the implementation that make processes using
mlock() not even work with simple fork() [1] and we get reliable crashes
when rebooting.
Further, simply because we might be unmapping a single PTE of a large
mlocked folio, we shouldn't zero out the whole folio.
... especially because the code can also *corrupt* urelated memory because
kernel_init_pages(page, folio_nr_pages(folio));
Could end up writing outside of the actual folio if we work with a tail
page.
Let's revert it. Once there is agreement that this is the right approach,
the issues were fixed and there was reasonable review and proper testing,
we can consider it again.

KVM: arm64: Add early_param to control WFx trapping
Add an early_params to control WFI and WFE trapping. This is to control the degree guests can wait for interrupts on their own without being trapped by KVM. Options for each param are trap and notrap. trap enables the trap. notrap disables the trap. Note that when enabled, traps are allowed but not guaranteed by the CPU architecture. Absent an explicitly set policy, default to current behavior: disabling the trap if only a single task is running and enabling otherwise.

tracing: Add option to use memmapped memory for trace boot instance
Add an option to the trace_instance kernel command line parameter that allows it to use the reserved memory from memmap boot parameter. memmap=12M$0x284500000 trace_instance=boot_mapped@0x284500000:12M The above will reserves 12 megs at the physical address 0x284500000. The second parameter will create a "boot_mapped" instance and use the memory reserved as the memory for the ring buffer. That will create an instance called "boot_mapped": /sys/kernel/tracing/instances/boot_mapped Note, because the ring buffer is using a defined memory ranged, it will act just like a memory mapped ring buffer. It will not have a snapshot buffer, as it can't swap out the buffer. The snapshot files as well as any tracers that uses a snapshot will not be present in the boot_mapped instance.

sched/core: Drop spinlocks on contention iff kernel is preemptible
Use preempt_model_preemptible() to detect a preemptible kernel when
deciding whether or not to reschedule in order to drop a contended
spinlock or rwlock. Because PREEMPT_DYNAMIC selects PREEMPTION, kernels
built with PREEMPT_DYNAMIC=y will yield contended locks even if the live
preemption model is "none" or "voluntary". In short, make kernels with
dynamically selected models behave the same as kernels with statically
selected models.
Somewhat counter-intuitively, NOT yielding a lock can provide better
latency for the relevant tasks/processes. E.g. KVM x86's mmu_lock, a
rwlock, is often contended between an invalidation event (takes mmu_lock
for write) and a vCPU servicing a guest page fault (takes mmu_lock for
read). For _some_ setups, letting the invalidation task complete even
if there is mmu_lock contention provides lower latency for *all* tasks,
i.e. the invalidation completes sooner *and* the vCPU services the guest
page fault sooner.
But even KVM's mmu_lock behavior isn't uniform, e.g. the "best" behavior
can vary depending on the host VMM, the guest workload, the number of
vCPUs, the number of pCPUs in the host, why there is lock contention, etc.
In other words, simply deleting the CONFIG_PREEMPTION guard (or doing the
opposite and removing contention yielding entirely) needs to come with a
big pile of data proving that changing the status quo is a net positive.
Opportunistically document this side effect of preempt=full, as yielding
contended spinlocks can have significant, user-visible impact.

platform/x86: touchscreen_dmi: Add support for setting touchscreen properties from cmdline
On x86/ACPI platforms touchscreens mostly just work without needing any device/model specific configuration. But in some cases (mostly with Silead and Goodix touchscreens) it is still necessary to manually specify various touchscreen-properties on a per model basis. touchscreen_dmi is a special place for DMI quirks for this, but it can be challenging for users to figure out the right property values, especially for Silead touchscreens where non of these can be read back from the touchscreen-controller. ATM users can only test touchscreen properties by editing touchscreen_dmi.c and then building a completely new kernel which makes it unnecessary difficult for users to test and submit properties when necessary for their laptop / tablet model. Add support for specifying properties on the kernel commandline to allow users to easily figure out the right settings. See the added documentation in kernel-parameters.txt for the commandline syntax.

The usual shower of singleton fixes and minor series all over MM,
documented (hopefully adequately) in the respective changelogs. Notable
series include:
- Lucas Stach has provided some page-mapping
cleanup/consolidation/maintainability work in the series "mm/treewide:
Remove pXd_huge() API".
- In the series "Allow migrate on protnone reference with
MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY policy", Donet Tom has optimized mempolicy's
MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY mode, yielding almost doubled performance in one
test.
- In their series "Memory allocation profiling" Kent Overstreet and
Suren Baghdasaryan have contributed a means of determining (via
/proc/allocinfo) whereabouts in the kernel memory is being allocated:
number of calls and amount of memory.
- Matthew Wilcox has provided the series "Various significant MM
patches" which does a number of rather unrelated things, but in largely
similar code sites.

X86 interrupt handling update:
Support for posted interrupts on bare metal
Posted interrupts is a virtualization feature which allows to inject
interrupts directly into a guest without host interaction. The VT-d
interrupt remapping hardware sets the bit which corresponds to the
interrupt vector in a vector bitmap which is either used to inject the
interrupt directly into the guest via a virtualized APIC or in case
that the guest is scheduled out provides a host side notification
interrupt which informs the host that an interrupt has been marked
pending in the bitmap.
This can be utilized on bare metal for scenarios where multiple
devices, e.g. NVME storage, raise interrupts with a high frequency. In
the default mode these interrupts are handles independently and
therefore require a full roundtrip of interrupt entry/exit.
Utilizing posted interrupts this roundtrip overhead can be avoided by
coalescing these interrupt entries to a single entry for the posted
interrupt notification. The notification interrupt then demultiplexes
the pending bits in a memory based bitmap and invokes the corresponding
device specific handlers.
Depending on the usage scenario and device utilization throughput
improvements between 10% and 130% have been measured.
As this is only relevant for high end servers with multiple device
queues per CPU attached and counterproductive for situations where
interrupts are arriving at distinct times, the functionality is opt-in
via a kernel command line parameter.

watchdog: allow nmi watchdog to use raw perf event
NMI watchdog permanently consumes one hardware counters per CPU on the system. For systems that use many hardware counters, this causes more aggressive time multiplexing of perf events. OTOH, some CPUs (mostly Intel) support "ref-cycles" event, which is rarely used. Add kernel cmdline arg nmi_watchdog=rNNN to configure the watchdog to use raw event. For example, on Intel CPUs, we can use "r300" to configure the watchdog to use ref-cycles event. If the raw event does not work, fall back to use "cycles".

Previously we claimed "pcie_aspm=off" meant that ASPM would be disabled, which is wrong. Correct this to say that with "pcie_aspm=off", Linux doesn't touch any ASPM configuration at all. ASPM may have been enabled by firmware, and that will be left unchanged. See "aspm_support_enabled".

cpu: Ignore "mitigations" kernel parameter if CPU_MITIGATIONS=n
Explicitly disallow enabling mitigations at runtime for kernels that were built with CONFIG_CPU_MITIGATIONS=n, as some architectures may omit code entirely if mitigations are disabled at compile time. E.g. on x86, a large pile of Kconfigs are buried behind CPU_MITIGATIONS, and trying to provide sane behavior for retroactively enabling mitigations is extremely difficult, bordering on impossible. E.g. page table isolation and call depth tracking require build-time support, BHI mitigations will still be off without additional kernel parameters, etc. [ bp: Touchups. ] Signed-off-by: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com> Signed-off-by: Borislav Petkov (AMD) <bp@alien8.de> Acked-by: Borislav Petkov (AMD) <bp@alien8.de> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240420000556.2645001-3-seanjc@google.com |

s390: Map kernel at fixed location when KASLR is disabled
Since kernel virtual and physical address spaces are uncoupled the kernel is mapped at the top of the virtual address space in case KASLR is disabled. That does not pose any issue with regard to the kernel booting and operation, but makes it difficult to use a generated vmlinux with some debugging tools (e.g. gdb), because the exact location of the kernel image in virtual memory is unknown. Make that location known and introduce CONFIG_KERNEL_IMAGE_BASE configuration option. A custom CONFIG_KERNEL_IMAGE_BASE value that would break the virtual memory layout leads to a build error. The kernel image size is defined by KERNEL_IMAGE_SIZE macro and set to 512 MB, by analogy with x86.

rcu: Reduce synchronize_rcu() latency
A call to a synchronize_rcu() can be optimized from a latency
point of view. Workloads which depend on this can benefit of it.
The delay of wakeme_after_rcu() callback, which unblocks a waiter,
depends on several factors:
- how fast a process of offloading is started. Combination of:
- !CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU/CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU;
- !CONFIG_RCU_LAZY/CONFIG_RCU_LAZY;
- other.
- when started, invoking path is interrupted due to:
- time limit;
- need_resched();
- if limit is reached.
- where in a nocb list it is located;
- how fast previous callbacks completed;
Example:
1. On our embedded devices i can easily trigger the scenario when
it is a last in the list out of ~3600 callbacks:
<snip>
<...>-29 [001] d..1. 21950.145313: rcu_batch_start: rcu_preempt CBs=3613 bl=28
...
<...>-29 [001] ..... 21950.152578: rcu_invoke_callback: rcu_preempt rhp=00000000b2d6dee8 func=__free_vm_area_struct.cfi_jt

<...>-29 [001] ..... 21950.152581: rcu_invoke_callback: rcu_preempt rhp=0000000013b7e5ee func=__free_vm_area_struct.cfi_jt

<...>-29 [001] ..... 21950.152583: rcu_invoke_callback: rcu_preempt rhp=000000008f162ca8 func=wakeme_after_rcu.cfi_jt
<...>-29 [001] d..1. 21950.152625: rcu_batch_end: rcu_preempt CBs-invoked=3612 idle=....
<snip>
2. We use cpuset/cgroup to classify tasks and assign them into
different cgroups. For example "backgrond" group which binds tasks
only to little CPUs or "foreground" which makes use of all CPUs.
Tasks can be migrated between groups by a request if an acceleration
is needed.
See below an example how "surfaceflinger" task gets migrated.
Initially it is located in the "system-background" cgroup which
allows to run only on little cores. In order to speed it up it
can be temporary moved into "foreground" cgroup which allows
to use big/all CPUs:
cgroup_attach_task():
-> cgroup_migrate_execute()
-> cpuset_can_attach()
-> percpu_down_write()
-> rcu_sync_enter()
-> synchronize_rcu()
-> now move tasks to the new cgroup.
-> cgroup_migrate_finish()
<snip>
rcuop/1-29 [000] ..... 7030.528570: rcu_invoke_callback: rcu_preempt rhp=00000000461605e0 func=wakeme_after_rcu.cfi_jt
PERFD-SERVER-1855 [000] d..1. 7030.530293: cgroup_attach_task: dst_root=3 dst_id=22 dst_level=1 dst_path=/foreground pid=1900 comm=surfaceflinger
TimerDispatch-2768 [002] d..5. 7030.537542: sched_migrate_task: comm=surfaceflinger pid=1900 prio=98 orig_cpu=0 dest_cpu=4
<snip>
"Boosting a task" depends on synchronize_rcu() latency:
- first trace shows a completion of synchronize_rcu();
- second shows attaching a task to a new group;
- last shows a final step when migration occurs.
3. To address this drawback, maintain a separate track that consists
of synchronize_rcu() callers only. After completion of a grace period
users are deferred to a dedicated worker to process requests.
4. This patch reduces the latency of synchronize_rcu() approximately
by ~30-40% on synthetic tests. The real test case, camera launch time,
shows(time is in milliseconds):
1-run 542 vs 489 improvement 9%
2-run 540 vs 466 improvement 13%
3-run 518 vs 468 improvement 9%
4-run 531 vs 457 improvement 13%
5-run 548 vs 475 improvement 13%
6-run 509 vs 484 improvement 4%
Synthetic test(no "noise" from other callbacks):
Hardware: x86_64 64 CPUs, 64GB of memory
Linux-6.6
- 10K tasks(simultaneous);
- each task does(1000 loops)
synchronize_rcu();
kfree(p);
default: CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU: takes 54 seconds to complete all users;
patch: CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU: takes 35 seconds to complete all users.
Running 60K gives approximately same results on my setup. Please note
it is without any interaction with another type of callbacks, otherwise
it will impact a lot a default case.
5. By default it is disabled. To enable this perform one of the
below sequence:
echo 1 > /sys/module/rcutree/parameters/rcu_normal_wake_from_gp
or pass a boot parameter "rcutree.rcu_normal_wake_from_gp=1"

The BHB can still influence the choice of indirect branch predictor entry, and although branch predictor entries are isolated between modes when eIBRS is enabled, the BHB itself is not isolated between modes.

x86/bhi: Add BHI mitigation knob
Branch history clearing software sequences and hardware control
BHI_DIS_S were defined to mitigate Branch History Injection (BHI).
Add cmdline spectre_bhi={on|off|auto} to control BHI mitigation:
auto - Deploy the hardware mitigation BHI_DIS_S, if available.
on - Deploy the hardware mitigation BHI_DIS_S, if available,
otherwise deploy the software sequence at syscall entry and
VMexit.
off - Turn off BHI mitigation.
The default is auto mode which does not deploy the software sequence
mitigation. This is because of the hardening done in the syscall
dispatch path, which is the likely target of BHI.

Tracing updates for 6.9:
Main user visible change:
- User events can now have "multi formats"
The current user events have a single format. If another event is created
with a different format, it will fail to be created. That is, once an
event name is used, it cannot be used again with a different format. This
can cause issues if a library is using an event and updates its format.
An application using the older format will prevent an application using
the new library from registering its event.
A task could also DOS another application if it knows the event names, and
it creates events with different formats.
The multi-format event is in a different name space from the single
format. Both the event name and its format are the unique identifier.
This will allow two different applications to use the same user event name
but with different payloads.
- Added support to have ftrace_dump_on_oops dump out instances and
not just the main top level tracing buffer.
Other changes:
- Add eventfs_root_inode
Only the root inode has a dentry that is static (never goes away) and
stores it upon creation. There's no reason that the thousands of other
eventfs inodes should have a pointer that never gets set in its
descriptor. Create a eventfs_root_inode desciptor that has a eventfs_inode
descriptor and a dentry pointer, and only the root inode will use this.
- Added WARN_ON()s in eventfs
There's some conditionals remaining in eventfs that should never be hit,
but instead of removing them, add WARN_ON() around them to make sure that
they are never hit.
- Have saved_cmdlines allocation also include the map_cmdline_to_pid array
The saved_cmdlines structure allocates a large amount of data to hold its
mappings. Within it, it has three arrays. Two are already apart of it:
map_pid_to_cmdline[] and saved_cmdlines[]. More memory can be saved by
also including the map_cmdline_to_pid[] array as well.
- Restructure __string() and __assign_str() macros used in TRACE_EVENT().
Dynamic strings in TRACE_EVENT() are declared with:
__string(name, source)
And assigned with:
__assign_str(name, source)
In the tracepoint callback of the event, the __string() is used to get the
size needed to allocate on the ring buffer and __assign_str() is used to
copy the string into the ring buffer. There's a helper structure that is
created in the TRACE_EVENT() macro logic that will hold the string length
and its position in the ring buffer which is created by __string().
There are several trace events that have a function to create the string
to save. This function is executed twice. Once for __string() and again
for __assign_str(). There's no reason for this. The helper structure could
also save the string it used in __string() and simply copy that into
__assign_str() (it also already has its length).
By using the structure to store the source string for the assignment, it
means that the second argument to __assign_str() is no longer needed.
It will be removed in the next merge window, but for now add a warning if
the source string given to __string() is different than the source string
given to __assign_str(), as the source to __assign_str() isn't even used
and will be going away.
- Added checks to make sure that the source of __string() is also the
source of __assign_str() so that it can be safely removed in the next
merge window.
Included fixes that the above check found.
- Other minor clean ups and fixes

tracing: Support to dump instance traces by ftrace_dump_on_oops
Currently ftrace only dumps the global trace buffer on an OOPs. For debugging a production usecase, instance trace will be helpful to check specific problems since global trace buffer may be used for other purposes. This patch extend the ftrace_dump_on_oops parameter to dump a specific or multiple trace instances: - ftrace_dump_on_oops=0: as before -- don't dump - ftrace_dump_on_oops[=1]: as before -- dump the global trace buffer on all CPUs - ftrace_dump_on_oops=2 or =orig_cpu: as before -- dump the global trace buffer on CPU that triggered the oops - ftrace_dump_on_oops=<instance_name>: new behavior -- dump the tracing instance matching <instance_name> - ftrace_dump_on_oops[=2/orig_cpu],<instance1_name>[=2/orig_cpu], <instrance2_name>[=2/orig_cpu]: new behavior -- dump the global trace buffer and multiple instance buffer on all CPUs, or only dump on CPU that triggered the oops if =2 or =orig_cpu is given Also, the sysctl node can handle the input accordingly.

Power management updates for 6.9-rc1
- Allow the Energy Model to be updated dynamically (Lukasz Luba).
- Add support for LZ4 compression algorithm to the hibernation image
creation and loading code (Nikhil V).
- Fix and clean up system suspend statistics collection (Rafael
Wysocki).
- Simplify device suspend and resume handling in the power management
core code (Rafael Wysocki).
- Fix PCI hibernation support description (Yiwei Lin).
- Make hibernation take set_memory_ro() return values into account as
appropriate (Christophe Leroy).
- Set mem_sleep_current during kernel command line setup to avoid an
ordering issue with handling it (Maulik Shah).
- Fix wake IRQs handling when pm_runtime_force_suspend() is used as a
driver's system suspend callback (Qingliang Li).
- Simplify pm_runtime_get_if_active() usage and add a replacement for
pm_runtime_put_autosuspend() (Sakari Ailus).
- Add a tracepoint for runtime_status changes tracking (Vilas Bhat).
- Fix section title markdown in the runtime PM documentation (Yiwei
Lin).
- Enable preferred core support in the amd-pstate cpufreq driver (Meng
Li).
- Fix min_perf assignment in amd_pstate_adjust_perf() and make the
min/max limit perf values in amd-pstate always stay within the
(highest perf, lowest perf) range (Tor Vic, Meng Li).
- Allow intel_pstate to assign model-specific values to strings used in
the EPP sysfs interface and make it do so on Meteor Lake (Srinivas
Pandruvada).
- Drop long-unused cpudata::prev_cummulative_iowait from the
intel_pstate cpufreq driver (Jiri Slaby).
- Prevent scaling_cur_freq from exceeding scaling_max_freq when the
latter is an inefficient frequency (Shivnandan Kumar).
- Change default transition delay in cpufreq to 2ms (Qais Yousef).
- Remove references to 10ms minimum sampling rate from comments in the
cpufreq code (Pierre Gondois).
- Honour transition_latency over transition_delay_us in cpufreq (Qais
Yousef).

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"From the functional perspective, the most significant change here is
the addition of support for Energy Models that can be updated
dynamically at run time.
There is also the addition of LZ4 compression support for hibernation,
the new preferred core support in amd-pstate, new platforms support in
the Intel RAPL driver, new model-specific EPP handling in intel_pstate
and more.
Apart from that, the cpufreq default transition delay is reduced from
10 ms to 2 ms (along with some related adjustments), the system
suspend statistics code undergoes a significant rework and there is a
usual bunch of fixes and code cleanups all over.
Specifics:

- Add a tracepoint for runtime_status changes tracking (Vilas Bhat)
- Fix section title markdown in the runtime PM documentation (Yiwei
Lin)
- Enable preferred core support in the amd-pstate cpufreq driver
(Meng Li)
- Fix min_perf assignment in amd_pstate_adjust_perf() and make the
min/max limit perf values in amd-pstate always stay within the
(highest perf, lowest perf) range (Tor Vic, Meng Li)
- Allow intel_pstate to assign model-specific values to strings used
in the EPP sysfs interface and make it do so on Meteor Lake
(Srinivas Pandruvada)
- Drop long-unused cpudata::prev_cummulative_iowait from the
intel_pstate cpufreq driver (Jiri Slaby)
- Prevent scaling_cur_freq from exceeding scaling_max_freq when the
latter is an inefficient frequency (Shivnandan Kumar)
- Change default transition delay in cpufreq to 2ms (Qais Yousef)
- Remove references to 10ms minimum sampling rate from comments in
the cpufreq code (Pierre Gondois)
- Honour transition_latency over transition_delay_us in cpufreq (Qais
Yousef)

This results in a 3.5% performance improvement on the "perf bench sched messaging" test. - Kernel boot parameters cleanup after SLAB removal (Xiongwei Song) Due to two different main slab implementations we've had boot parameters prefixed either slab_ and slub_ with some later becoming an alias as both implementations gained the same functionality (i.e. slab_nomerge vs slub_nomerge). In order to eventually get rid of the implementation-specific names, the canonical and documented parameters are now all prefixed slab_ and the slub_ variants become deprecated but still working aliases. - SLAB_ kmem_cache creation flags cleanup (Vlastimil Babka) The flags had hardcoded #define values which became tedious and error-prone when adding new ones. Assign the values via an enum that takes care of providing unique bit numbers. Also deprecate SLAB_MEM_SPREAD which was only used by SLAB, so it's a no-op since SLAB removal. Assign it an explicit zero value. The removals of the flag usage are handled independently in the respective subsystems, with a final removal of any leftover usage planned for the next release. - Misc cleanups and fixes (Chengming Zhou, Xiaolei Wang, Zheng Yejian) Includes removal of unused code or function parameters and a fix of a memleak. * tag 'slab-for-6.9' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vbabka/slab: slab: remove PARTIAL_NODE slab_state mm, slab: remove memcg_from_slab_obj() mm, slab: remove the corner case of inc_slabs_node() mm/slab: Fix a kmemleak in kmem_cache_destroy() mm, slab, kasan: replace kasan_never_merge() with SLAB_NO_MERGE mm, slab: use an enum to define SLAB_ cache creation flags mm, slab: deprecate SLAB_MEM_SPREAD flag mm, slab: fix the comment of cpu partial list mm, slab: remove unused object_size parameter in kmem_cache_flags() mm/slub: remove parameter 'flags' in create_kmalloc_caches() mm/slub: remove unused parameter in next_freelist_entry() mm/slub: remove full list manipulation for non-debug slab mm/slub: directly load freelist from cpu partial slab in the likely case mm/slub: make the description of slab_min_objects helpful in doc mm/slub: replace slub_$params with slab_$params in slub.rst mm/slub: unify all sl[au]b parameters with "slab_$param" Documentation: kernel-parameters: remove noaliencache |

Kernel registers can have all kinds of secrets in them so the mitigation is basically to wait until the kernel is about to return to userspace and has user values in the registers. At that point there is little chance of kernel secrets ending up in the registers and the microarchitectural state can be cleared.

Core x86 changes for v6.9:
- The biggest change is the rework of the percpu code,
to support the 'Named Address Spaces' GCC feature,
by Uros Bizjak:
- This allows C code to access GS and FS segment relative
memory via variables declared with such attributes,
which allows the compiler to better optimize those accesses
than the previous inline assembly code.
- The series also includes a number of micro-optimizations
for various percpu access methods, plus a number of
cleanups of %gs accesses in assembly code.
- These changes have been exposed to linux-next testing for
the last ~5 months, with no known regressions in this area.
- Fix/clean up __switch_to()'s broken but accidentally
working handling of FPU switching - which also generates
better code.
- Propagate more RIP-relative addressing in assembly code,
to generate slightly better code.
- Rework the CPU mitigations Kconfig space to be less idiosyncratic,
to make it easier for distros to follow & maintain these options.
- Rework the x86 idle code to cure RCU violations and
to clean up the logic.
- Clean up the vDSO Makefile logic.
- Misc cleanups and fixes.
[ Please note that there's a higher number of merge commits in
this branch (three) than is usual in x86 topic trees. This happened
due to the long testing lifecycle of the percpu changes that
involved 3 merge windows, which generated a longer history
and various interactions with other core x86 changes that we
felt better about to carry in a single branch. ]

Support for x86 Fast Return and Event Delivery (FRED):
FRED is a replacement for IDT event delivery on x86 and addresses most of
the technical nightmares which IDT exposes:
1) Exception cause registers like CR2 need to be manually preserved in
nested exception scenarios.
2) Hardware interrupt stack switching is suboptimal for nested exceptions
as the interrupt stack mechanism rewinds the stack on each entry which
requires a massive effort in the low level entry of #NMI code to handle
this.
3) No hardware distinction between entry from kernel or from user which
makes establishing kernel context more complex than it needs to be
especially for unconditionally nestable exceptions like NMI.
4) NMI nesting caused by IRET unconditionally reenabling NMIs, which is a
problem when the perf NMI takes a fault when collecting a stack trace.
5) Partial restore of ESP when returning to a 16-bit segment
6) Limitation of the vector space which can cause vector exhaustion on
large systems.
7) Inability to differentiate NMI sources
FRED addresses these shortcomings by:
1) An extended exception stack frame which the CPU uses to save exception
cause registers. This ensures that the meta information for each
exception is preserved on stack and avoids the extra complexity of
preserving it in software.
2) Hardware interrupt stack switching is non-rewinding if a nested
exception uses the currently interrupt stack.
3) The entry points for kernel and user context are separate and GS BASE
handling which is required to establish kernel context for per CPU
variable access is done in hardware.
4) NMIs are now nesting protected. They are only reenabled on the return
from NMI.
5) FRED guarantees full restore of ESP
6) FRED does not put a limitation on the vector space by design because it
uses a central entry points for kernel and user space and the CPUstores
the entry type (exception, trap, interrupt, syscall) on the entry stack
along with the vector number. The entry code has to demultiplex this
information, but this removes the vector space restriction.
The first hardware implementations will still have the current
restricted vector space because lifting this limitation requires
further changes to the local APIC.
7) FRED stores the vector number and meta information on stack which
allows having more than one NMI vector in future hardware when the
required local APIC changes are in place.
The series implements the initial FRED support by:
- Reworking the existing entry and IDT handling infrastructure to
accomodate for the alternative entry mechanism.
- Expanding the stack frame to accomodate for the extra 16 bytes FRED
requires to store context and meta information
- Providing FRED specific C entry points for events which have information
pushed to the extended stack frame, e.g. #PF and #DB.
- Providing FRED specific C entry points for #NMI and #MCE
- Implementing the FRED specific ASM entry points and the C code to
demultiplex the events
- Providing detection and initialization mechanisms and the necessary
tweaks in context switching, GS BASE handling etc.
The FRED integration aims for maximum code reuse vs. the existing IDT
implementation to the extent possible and the deviation in hot paths like
context switching are handled with alternatives to minimalize the
impact. The low level entry and exit paths are seperate due to the extended
stack frame and the hardware based GS BASE swichting and therefore have no
impact on IDT based systems.
It has been extensively tested on existing systems and on the FRED
simulation and as of now there are know outstanding problems.

Rework of APIC enumeration and topology evaluation:
The current implementation has a couple of shortcomings:
- It fails to handle hybrid systems correctly.
- The APIC registration code which handles CPU number assignents is in
the middle of the APIC code and detached from the topology evaluation.
- The various mechanisms which enumerate APICs, ACPI, MPPARSE and guest
specific ones, tweak global variables as they see fit or in case of
XENPV just hack around the generic mechanisms completely.
- The CPUID topology evaluation code is sprinkled all over the vendor
code and reevaluates global variables on every hotplug operation.
- There is no way to analyze topology on the boot CPU before bringing up
the APs. This causes problems for infrastructure like PERF which needs
to size certain aspects upfront or could be simplified if that would be
possible.
- The APIC admission and CPU number association logic is incomprehensible
and overly complex and needs to be kept around after boot instead of
completing this right after the APIC enumeration.
This update addresses these shortcomings with the following changes:
- Rework the CPUID evaluation code so it is common for all vendors and
provides information about the APIC ID segments in a uniform way
independent of the number of segments (Thread, Core, Module, ..., Die,
Package) so that this information can be computed instead of rewriting
global variables of dubious value over and over.
- A few cleanups and simplifcations of the APIC, IO/APIC and related
interfaces to prepare for the topology evaluation changes.
- Seperation of the parser stages so the early evaluation which tries to
find the APIC address can be seperately overridden from the late
evaluation which enumerates and registers the local APIC as further
preparation for sanitizing the topology evaluation.
- A new registration and admission logic which
- encapsulates the inner workings so that parsers and guest logic
cannot longer fiddle in it
- uses the APIC ID segments to build topology bitmaps at registration
time
- provides a sane admission logic
- allows to detect the crash kernel case, where CPU0 does not run on
the real BSP, automatically. This is required to prevent sending
INIT/SIPI sequences to the real BSP which would reset the whole
machine. This was so far handled by a tedious command line
parameter, which does not even work in nested crash scenarios.
- Associates CPU number after the enumeration completed and prevents
the late registration of APICs, which was somehow tolerated before.
- Converting all parsers and guest enumeration mechanisms over to the
new interfaces.
This allows to get rid of all global variable tweaking from the parsers
and enumeration mechanisms and sanitizes the XEN[PV] handling so it can
use CPUID evaluation for the first time.
- Mopping up existing sins by taking the information from the APIC ID
segment bitmaps.
This evaluates hybrid systems correctly on the boot CPU and allows for
cleanups and fixes in the related drivers, e.g. PERF.
The series has been extensively tested and the minimal late fallout due to
a broken ACPI/MADT table has been addressed by tightening the admission
logic further.

A large set of updates and features for timers and timekeeping:
- The hierarchical timer pull model
When timer wheel timers are armed they are placed into the timer wheel
of a CPU which is likely to be busy at the time of expiry. This is done
to avoid wakeups on potentially idle CPUs.
This is wrong in several aspects:
1) The heuristics to select the target CPU are wrong by
definition as the chance to get the prediction right is close
to zero.
2) Due to #1 it is possible that timers are accumulated on a
single target CPU
3) The required computation in the enqueue path is just overhead for
dubious value especially under the consideration that the vast
majority of timer wheel timers are either canceled or rearmed
before they expire.
The timer pull model avoids the above by removing the target
computation on enqueue and queueing timers always on the CPU on which
they get armed.
This is achieved by having separate wheels for CPU pinned timers and
global timers which do not care about where they expire.
As long as a CPU is busy it handles both the pinned and the global
timers which are queued on the CPU local timer wheels.
When a CPU goes idle it evaluates its own timer wheels:
- If the first expiring timer is a pinned timer, then the global
timers can be ignored as the CPU will wake up before they expire.
- If the first expiring timer is a global timer, then the expiry time
is propagated into the timer pull hierarchy and the CPU makes sure
to wake up for the first pinned timer.
The timer pull hierarchy organizes CPUs in groups of eight at the
lowest level and at the next levels groups of eight groups up to the
point where no further aggregation of groups is required, i.e. the
number of levels is log8(NR_CPUS). The magic number of eight has been
established by experimention, but can be adjusted if needed.
In each group one busy CPU acts as the migrator. It's only one CPU to
avoid lock contention on remote timer wheels.
The migrator CPU checks in its own timer wheel handling whether there
are other CPUs in the group which have gone idle and have global timers
to expire. If there are global timers to expire, the migrator locks the
remote CPU timer wheel and handles the expiry.
Depending on the group level in the hierarchy this handling can require
to walk the hierarchy downwards to the CPU level.
Special care is taken when the last CPU goes idle. At this point the
CPU is the systemwide migrator at the top of the hierarchy and it
therefore cannot delegate to the hierarchy. It needs to arm its own
timer device to expire either at the first expiring timer in the
hierarchy or at the first CPU local timer, which ever expires first.
This completely removes the overhead from the enqueue path, which is
e.g. for networking a true hotpath and trades it for a slightly more
complex idle path.
This has been in development for a couple of years and the final series
has been extensively tested by various teams from silicon vendors and
ran through extensive CI.
There have been slight performance improvements observed on network
centric workloads and an Intel team confirmed that this allows them to
power down a die completely on a mult-die socket for the first time in
a mostly idle scenario.
There is only one outstanding ~1.5% regression on a specific overloaded
netperf test which is currently investigated, but the rest is either
positive or neutral performance wise and positive on the power
management side.
- Fixes for the timekeeping interpolation code for cross-timestamps:
cross-timestamps are used for PTP to get snapshots from hardware timers
and interpolated them back to clock MONOTONIC. The changes address a
few corner cases in the interpolation code which got the math and logic
wrong.
- Simplifcation of the clocksource watchdog retry logic to automatically
adjust to handle larger systems correctly instead of having more
incomprehensible command line parameters.
- Treewide consolidation of the VDSO data structures.
- The usual small improvements and cleanups all over the place.

Pull timer updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"A large set of updates and features for timers and timekeeping:
- The hierarchical timer pull model
When timer wheel timers are armed they are placed into the timer
wheel of a CPU which is likely to be busy at the time of expiry.
This is done to avoid wakeups on potentially idle CPUs.
This is wrong in several aspects:
1) The heuristics to select the target CPU are wrong by
definition as the chance to get the prediction right is
close to zero.
2) Due to #1 it is possible that timers are accumulated on
a single target CPU
3) The required computation in the enqueue path is just overhead
for dubious value especially under the consideration that the
vast majority of timer wheel timers are either canceled or
rearmed before they expire.
The timer pull model avoids the above by removing the target
computation on enqueue and queueing timers always on the CPU on
which they get armed.
This is achieved by having separate wheels for CPU pinned timers
and global timers which do not care about where they expire.
As long as a CPU is busy it handles both the pinned and the global
timers which are queued on the CPU local timer wheels.
When a CPU goes idle it evaluates its own timer wheels:
- If the first expiring timer is a pinned timer, then the global
timers can be ignored as the CPU will wake up before they
expire.
- If the first expiring timer is a global timer, then the expiry
time is propagated into the timer pull hierarchy and the CPU
makes sure to wake up for the first pinned timer.
The timer pull hierarchy organizes CPUs in groups of eight at the
lowest level and at the next levels groups of eight groups up to
the point where no further aggregation of groups is required, i.e.
the number of levels is log8(NR_CPUS). The magic number of eight
has been established by experimention, but can be adjusted if
needed.
In each group one busy CPU acts as the migrator. It's only one CPU
to avoid lock contention on remote timer wheels.
The migrator CPU checks in its own timer wheel handling whether
there are other CPUs in the group which have gone idle and have
global timers to expire. If there are global timers to expire, the
migrator locks the remote CPU timer wheel and handles the expiry.
Depending on the group level in the hierarchy this handling can
require to walk the hierarchy downwards to the CPU level.
Special care is taken when the last CPU goes idle. At this point
the CPU is the systemwide migrator at the top of the hierarchy and
it therefore cannot delegate to the hierarchy. It needs to arm its
own timer device to expire either at the first expiring timer in
the hierarchy or at the first CPU local timer, which ever expires
first.
This completely removes the overhead from the enqueue path, which
is e.g. for networking a true hotpath and trades it for a slightly
more complex idle path.
This has been in development for a couple of years and the final
series has been extensively tested by various teams from silicon
vendors and ran through extensive CI.
There have been slight performance improvements observed on network
centric workloads and an Intel team confirmed that this allows them
to power down a die completely on a mult-die socket for the first
time in a mostly idle scenario.
There is only one outstanding ~1.5% regression on a specific
overloaded netperf test which is currently investigated, but the
rest is either positive or neutral performance wise and positive on
the power management side.
- Fixes for the timekeeping interpolation code for cross-timestamps:
cross-timestamps are used for PTP to get snapshots from hardware
timers and interpolated them back to clock MONOTONIC. The changes
address a few corner cases in the interpolation code which got the
math and logic wrong.
- Simplifcation of the clocksource watchdog retry logic to
automatically adjust to handle larger systems correctly instead of
having more incomprehensible command line parameters.
- Treewide consolidation of the VDSO data structures.
- The usual small improvements and cleanups all over the place"

x86/rfds: Mitigate Register File Data Sampling (RFDS)
RFDS is a CPU vulnerability that may allow userspace to infer kernel stale data previously used in floating point registers, vector registers and integer registers. RFDS only affects certain Intel Atom processors. Intel released a microcode update that uses VERW instruction to clear the affected CPU buffers. Unlike MDS, none of the affected cores support SMT. Add RFDS bug infrastructure and enable the VERW based mitigation by default, that clears the affected buffers just before exiting to userspace. Also add sysfs reporting and cmdline parameter "reg_file_data_sampling" to control the mitigation.
