s390/vdso: Wire up getrandom() vdso implementation
Provide the s390 specific vdso getrandom() architecture backend. _vdso_rng_data required data is placed within the _vdso_data vvar page, by using a hardcoded offset larger than vdso_data. As required the chacha20 implementation does not write to the stack. The implementation follows more or less the arm64 implementations and makes use of vector instructions. It has a fallback to the getrandom() system call for machines where the vector facility is not installed. The check if the vector facility is installed, as well as an optimization for machines with the vector-enhancements facility 2, is implemented with alternatives, avoiding runtime checks. Note that __kernel_getrandom() is implemented without the vdso user wrapper which would setup a stack frame for odd cases (aka very old glibc variants) where the caller has not done that. All callers of __kernel_getrandom() are required to setup a stack frame, like the C ABI requires it. The vdso testcases vdso_test_getrandom and vdso_test_chacha pass. Benchmark on a z16: $ ./vdso_test_getrandom bench-single vdso: 25000000 times in 0.493703559 seconds syscall: 25000000 times in 6.584025337 seconds Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <hca@linux.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: Harald Freudenberger <freude@linux.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Jason A.

dma-mapping: clearly mark DMA ops as an architecture feature
DMA ops are a helper for architectures and not for drivers to override the DMA implementation. Unfortunately driver authors keep ignoring this. Make the fact more clear by renaming the symbol to ARCH_HAS_DMA_OPS and having the two drivers overriding their dma_ops depend on that. These drivers should probably be marked broken, but we can give them a bit of a grace period for that.

s390/hiperdispatch: Add hiperdispatch sysctl interface
Expose hiperdispatch controls via sysctl. The user can now toggle hiperdispatch via assigning 0 or 1 to s390.hiperdispatch attribute. When hiperdipatch is toggled on, it tries to adjust CPU capacities, while system is in vertical polarization to gain performance benefits from different CPU polarizations. Disabling hiperdispatch reverts the CPU capacities to their default (HIGH_CAPACITY) and stops the dynamic adjustments. Introduce a kconfig option HIPERDISPATCH_ON which allows users to use hiperdispatch by default on vertical polarization. Using the sysctl attribute s390.hiperdispatch would overwrite this behavior.

s390/mm: Pin identity mapping base to zero
SIE instruction performs faster when the virtual address of SIE block matches the physical one. Pin the identity mapping base to zero for the benefit of SIE and other instructions that have similar performance impact. Still, randomize the base when DEBUG_VM kernel configuration option is enabled.

- 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.

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. - In his series "mm: page_alloc: freelist migratetype hygiene" Johannes Weiner has fixed the page allocator's handling of migratetype requests, with resulting improvements in compaction efficiency. - In the series "make the hugetlb migration strategy consistent" Baolin Wang has fixed a hugetlb migration issue, which should improve hugetlb allocation reliability. - Liu Shixin has hit an I/O meltdown caused by readahead in a memory-tight memcg. Addressed in the series "Fix I/O high when memory almost met memcg limit". - In the series "mm/filemap: optimize folio adding and splitting" Kairui Song has optimized pagecache insertion, yielding ~10% performance improvement in one test. - Baoquan He has cleaned up and consolidated the early zone initialization code in the series "mm/mm_init.c: refactor free_area_init_core()". - Baoquan has also redone some MM initializatio code in the series "mm/init: minor clean up and improvement". - MM helper cleanups from Christoph Hellwig in his series "remove follow_pfn". - More cleanups from Matthew Wilcox in the series "Various page->flags cleanups". - Vlastimil Babka has contributed maintainability improvements in the series "memcg_kmem hooks refactoring". - More folio conversions and cleanups in Matthew Wilcox's series "Convert huge_zero_page to huge_zero_folio" "khugepaged folio conversions" "Remove page_idle and page_young wrappers" "Use folio APIs in procfs" "Clean up __folio_put()" "Some cleanups for memory-failure" "Remove page_mapping()" "More folio compat code removal" - David Hildenbrand chipped in with "fs/proc/task_mmu: convert hugetlb functions to work on folis". - Code consolidation and cleanup work related to GUP's handling of hugetlbs in Peter Xu's series "mm/gup: Unify hugetlb, part 2". - Rick Edgecombe has developed some fixes to stack guard gaps in the series "Cover a guard gap corner case". - Jinjiang Tu has fixed KSM's behaviour after a fork+exec in the series "mm/ksm: fix ksm exec support for prctl". - Baolin Wang has implemented NUMA balancing for multi-size THPs. This is a simple first-cut implementation for now. The series is "support multi-size THP numa balancing". - Cleanups to vma handling helper functions from Matthew Wilcox in the series "Unify vma_address and vma_pgoff_address". - Some selftests maintenance work from Dev Jain in the series "selftests/mm: mremap_test: Optimizations and style fixes". - Improvements to the swapping of multi-size THPs from Ryan Roberts in the series "Swap-out mTHP without splitting". - Kefeng Wang has significantly optimized the handling of arm64's permission page faults in the series "arch/mm/fault: accelerate pagefault when badaccess" "mm: remove arch's private VM_FAULT_BADMAP/BADACCESS" - GUP cleanups from David Hildenbrand in "mm/gup: consistently call it GUP-fast". - hugetlb fault code cleanups from Vishal Moola in "Hugetlb fault path to use struct vm_fault". - selftests build fixes from John Hubbard in the series "Fix selftests/mm build without requiring "make headers"". - Memory tiering fixes/improvements from Ho-Ren (Jack) Chuang in the series "Improved Memory Tier Creation for CPUless NUMA Nodes".

s390: Compile kernel with -fPIC and link with -no-pie
When the kernel is built with CONFIG_PIE_BUILD option enabled it uses dynamic symbols, for which the linker does not allow more than 64K number of entries. This can break features like kpatch. Hence, whenever possible the kernel is built with CONFIG_PIE_BUILD option disabled. For that support of unaligned symbols generated by linker scripts in the compiler is necessary. However, older compilers might lack such support. In that case the build process resorts to CONFIG_PIE_BUILD option-enabled build. Compile object files with -fPIC option and then link the kernel binary with -no-pie linker option. As result, the dynamic symbols are not generated and not only kpatch feature succeeds, but also the whole CONFIG_PIE_BUILD option-enabled code could be dropped.

s390/expoline: Make modules use kernel expolines
Currently, kernel modules contain their own set of expoline thunks. In the case of EXPOLINE_EXTERN, this involves postlinking of precompiled expoline.o. expoline.o is also necessary for out-of-source tree module builds. Now that the kernel modules area is less than 4 GB away from kernel expoline thunks, make modules use kernel expolines. Also make EXPOLINE_EXTERN the default if the compiler supports it. This simplifies build and aligns with the approach adopted by other architectures. Signed-off-by: Vasily Gorbik <gor@linux.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Alexander Gordeev <agordeev@linux.ibm.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.

s390/boot: Uncouple virtual and physical kernel offsets
This is a preparatory rework to allow uncoupling virtual and physical addresses spaces. Currently __kaslr_offset is the kernel offset in both physical memory on boot and in virtual memory after DAT mode is enabled. Uncouple these offsets and rename the physical address space variant to __kaslr_offset_phys while keep the name __kaslr_offset for the offset in virtual address space. Do not use __kaslr_offset_phys after DAT mode is enabled just yet, but still make it a persistent boot variable for later use. Use __kaslr_offset and __kaslr_offset_phys offsets in proper contexts and alter handle_relocs() function to distinguish between the two.

more s390 updates for 6.9 merge window
- Various virtual vs physical address usage fixes - Add new bitwise types and helper functions and use them in s390 specific drivers and code to make it easier to find virtual vs physical address usage bugs. Right now virtual and physical addresses are identical for s390, except for module, vmalloc, and similar areas. This will be changed, hopefully with the next merge window, so that e.g. the kernel image and modules will be located close to each other, allowing for direct branches and also for some other simplifications. As a prerequisite this requires to fix all misuses of virtual and physical addresses. As it turned out people are so used to the concept that virtual and physical addresses are the same, that new bugs got added to code which was already fixed. In order to avoid that even more code gets merged which adds such bugs add and use new bitwise types, so that sparse can be used to find such usage bugs. Most likely the new types can go away again after some time - Provide a simple ARCH_HAS_DEBUG_VIRTUAL implementation - Fix kprobe branch handling: if an out-of-line single stepped relative branch instruction has a target address within a certain address area in the entry code, the program check handler may incorrectly execute cleanup code as if KVM code was executed, leading to crashes - Fix reference counting of zcrypt card objects - Various other small fixes and cleanups -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAABCAAdFiEECMNfWEw3SLnmiLkZIg7DeRspbsIFAmX5lIYACgkQIg7DeRsp bsJYxA//cYGSaopFLuHxQndQi5UcMx0NMcaD9auMyDraPWJH0/F+vIWnLPxgJ1wB zfav3Ssvdd/41rPIXHSGxUzXzv+EHCY5+91t4plfCxWtd1SbpJ8gG2vrXTH512ql RhJ7crRFQqoigIxlsdwUkwGSqd+L6H73ikKzQyAaJFKC/e9BEpCH4zb8NuTqCeJE a81/A8BGSIo4Fk4qj1T5bHZzkznmxtisMPGXzoKa28LKhzwqqbGZYeHohnkaT6co UpY/HMdhGH74kkKqpF0cLDI0Bd8ptfjbcVcKyJ8OD7vCfinIM3bZdYg0KIzyRMhu d49JDXctPiePXTCi8X+AJnhNYFGlHuDciEpTMzkw97kwhmCfAOW5UaAlBo8dJqat zt76Cxbl3D+hYI7Wbs9lt2QsXso4/1fMMNQbu9pwyMKxHlCBVe+ZqNIl0gP8OAXZ 51pghcLlcwYNeYRkSzvfEhO9aeUsRg40O5UBCklVMRScrx7qie2wsllEFavb7vZd Ejv89dvn0KtzYIHG+U5SQ9d0x1JL9qApVM06sCGZGsBM9r4hHFGa8x57Pr+51ZPs j0qbr7iAWgCGXN8c3p/Nrev6eqBio81CpD9PWik7QpJS38EKkussqfPdQitgQpsi 7r0Sx51oBzyAVadmVAf8/flUrbJTvD3BdbkzN99W4BXyARJk7CI= =Vh2x -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 's390-6.9-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/s390/linux Pull more s390 updates from Heiko Carstens: - Various virtual vs physical address usage fixes - Add new bitwise types and helper functions and use them in s390 specific drivers and code to make it easier to find virtual vs physical address usage bugs.

S390:
* Changes to FPU handling came in via the main s390 pull request * Only deliver to the guest the SCLP events that userspace has requested. * More virtual vs physical address fixes (only a cleanup since virtual and physical address spaces are currently the same). * Fix selftests undefined behavior. x86: * Fix a restriction that the guest can't program a PMU event whose encoding matches an architectural event that isn't included in the guest CPUID. The enumeration of an architectural event only says that if a CPU supports an architectural event, then the event can be programmed *using the architectural encoding*. The enumeration does NOT say anything about the encoding when the CPU doesn't report support the event *in general*. It might support it, and it might support it using the same encoding that made it into the architectural PMU spec. * Fix a variety of bugs in KVM's emulation of RDPMC (more details on individual commits) and add a selftest to verify KVM correctly emulates RDMPC, counter availability, and a variety of other PMC-related behaviors that depend on guest CPUID and therefore are easier to validate with selftests than with custom guests (aka kvm-unit-tests). * Zero out PMU state on AMD if the virtual PMU is disabled, it does not cause any bug but it wastes time in various cases where KVM would check if a PMC event needs to be synthesized. * Optimize triggering of emulated events, with a nice ~10% performance improvement in VM-Exit microbenchmarks when a vPMU is exposed to the guest. * Tighten the check for "PMI in guest" to reduce false positives if an NMI arrives in the host while KVM is handling an IRQ VM-Exit. * Fix a bug where KVM would report stale/bogus exit qualification information when exiting to userspace with an internal error exit code. * Add a VMX flag in /proc/cpuinfo to report 5-level EPT support. * Rework TDP MMU root unload, free, and alloc to run with mmu_lock held for read, e.g. to avoid serializing vCPUs when userspace deletes a memslot. * Tear down TDP MMU page tables at 4KiB granularity (used to be 1GiB). KVM doesn't support yielding in the middle of processing a zap, and 1GiB granularity resulted in multi-millisecond lags that are quite impolite for CONFIG_PREEMPT kernels. * Allocate write-tracking metadata on-demand to avoid the memory overhead when a kernel is built with i915 virtualization support but the workloads use neither shadow paging nor i915 virtualization. * Explicitly initialize a variety of on-stack variables in the emulator that triggered KMSAN false positives. * Fix the debugregs ABI for 32-bit KVM. * Rework the "force immediate exit" code so that vendor code ultimately decides how and when to force the exit, which allowed some optimization for both Intel and AMD. * Fix a long-standing bug where kvm_has_noapic_vcpu could be left elevated if vCPU creation ultimately failed, causing extra unnecessary work. * Cleanup the logic for checking if the currently loaded vCPU is in-kernel. * Harden against underflowing the active mmu_notifier invalidation count, so that "bad" invalidations (usually due to bugs elsehwere in the kernel) are detected earlier and are less likely to hang the kernel. x86 Xen emulation: * Overlay pages can now be cached based on host virtual address, instead of guest physical addresses. This removes the need to reconfigure and invalidate the cache if the guest changes the gpa but the underlying host virtual address remains the same. * When possible, use a single host TSC value when computing the deadline for Xen timers in order to improve the accuracy of the timer emulation. * Inject pending upcall events when the vCPU software-enables its APIC to fix a bug where an upcall can be lost (and to follow Xen's behavior). * Fall back to the slow path instead of warning if "fast" IRQ delivery of Xen events fails, e.g. if the guest has aliased xAPIC IDs. RISC-V: * Support exception and interrupt handling in selftests * New self test for RISC-V architectural timer (Sstc extension) * New extension support (Ztso, Zacas) * Support userspace emulation of random number seed CSRs. ARM: * Infrastructure for building KVM's trap configuration based on the architectural features (or lack thereof) advertised in the VM's ID registers * Support for mapping vfio-pci BARs as Normal-NC (vaguely similar to x86's WC) at stage-2, improving the performance of interacting with assigned devices that can tolerate it * Conversion of KVM's representation of LPIs to an xarray, utilized to address serialization some of the serialization on the LPI injection path * Support for _architectural_ VHE-only systems, advertised through the absence of FEAT_E2H0 in the CPU's ID register * Miscellaneous cleanups, fixes, and spelling corrections to KVM and selftests LoongArch: * Set reserved bits as zero in CPUCFG. * Start SW timer only when vcpu is blocking. * Do not restart SW timer when it is expired. * Remove unnecessary CSR register saving during enter guest. * Misc cleanups and fixes as usual. Generic: * cleanup Kconfig by removing CONFIG_HAVE_KVM, which was basically always true on all architectures except MIPS (where Kconfig determines the available depending on CPU capabilities). It is replaced either by an architecture-dependent symbol for MIPS, and IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_KVM) everywhere else. * Factor common "select" statements in common code instead of requiring each architecture to specify it * Remove thoroughly obsolete APIs from the uapi headers. * Move architecture-dependent stuff to uapi/asm/kvm.h * Always flush the async page fault workqueue when a work item is being removed, especially during vCPU destruction, to ensure that there are no workers running in KVM code when all references to KVM-the-module are gone, i.e. to prevent a very unlikely use-after-free if kvm.ko is unloaded. * Grab a reference to the VM's mm_struct in the async #PF worker itself instead of gifting the worker a reference, so that there's no need to remember to *conditionally* clean up after the worker. Selftests: * Reduce boilerplate especially when utilize selftest TAP infrastructure. * Add basic smoke tests for SEV and SEV-ES, along with a pile of library support for handling private/encrypted/protected memory. * Fix benign bugs where tests neglect to close() guest_memfd files. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQFIBAABCAAyFiEE8TM4V0tmI4mGbHaCv/vSX3jHroMFAmX0iP8UHHBib256aW5p QHJlZGhhdC5jb20ACgkQv/vSX3jHroND7wf+JZoNvwZ+bmwWe/4jn/YwNoYi/C5z eypn8M1gsWEccpCpqPBwznVm9T29rF4uOlcMvqLEkHfTpaL1EKUUjP1lXPz/ileP 6a2RdOGxAhyTiFC9fjy+wkkjtLbn1kZf6YsS0hjphP9+w0chNbdn0w81dFVnXryd j7XYI8R/bFAthNsJOuZXSEjCfIHxvTTG74OrTf1B1FEBB+arPmrgUeJftMVhffQK Sowgg8L/Ii/x6fgV5NZQVSIyVf1rp8z7c6UaHT4Fwb0+RAMW8p9pYv9Qp1YkKp8y 5j0V9UzOHP7FRaYimZ5BtwQoqiZXYylQ+VuU/Y2f4X85cvlLzSqxaEMAPA== =mqOV -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini: "S390: - Changes to FPU handling came in via the main s390 pull request - Only deliver to the guest the SCLP events that userspace has requested - More virtual vs physical address fixes (only a cleanup since virtual and physical address spaces are currently the same) - Fix selftests undefined behavior x86: - Fix a restriction that the guest can't program a PMU event whose encoding matches an architectural event that isn't included in the guest CPUID.

KVM doesn't support yielding in the middle of processing a zap, and 1GiB granularity resulted in multi-millisecond lags that are quite impolite for CONFIG_PREEMPT kernels - Allocate write-tracking metadata on-demand to avoid the memory overhead when a kernel is built with i915 virtualization support but the workloads use neither shadow paging nor i915 virtualization - Explicitly initialize a variety of on-stack variables in the emulator that triggered KMSAN false positives - Fix the debugregs ABI for 32-bit KVM - Rework the "force immediate exit" code so that vendor code ultimately decides how and when to force the exit, which allowed some optimization for both Intel and AMD - Fix a long-standing bug where kvm_has_noapic_vcpu could be left elevated if vCPU creation ultimately failed, causing extra unnecessary work - Cleanup the logic for checking if the currently loaded vCPU is in-kernel - Harden against underflowing the active mmu_notifier invalidation count, so that "bad" invalidations (usually due to bugs elsehwere in the kernel) are detected earlier and are less likely to hang the kernel x86 Xen emulation: - Overlay pages can now be cached based on host virtual address, instead of guest physical addresses. This removes the need to reconfigure and invalidate the cache if the guest changes the gpa but the underlying host virtual address remains the same - When possible, use a single host TSC value when computing the deadline for Xen timers in order to improve the accuracy of the timer emulation - Inject pending upcall events when the vCPU software-enables its APIC to fix a bug where an upcall can be lost (and to follow Xen's behavior) - Fall back to the slow path instead of warning if "fast" IRQ delivery of Xen events fails, e.g. if the guest has aliased xAPIC IDs RISC-V: - Support exception and interrupt handling in selftests - New self test for RISC-V architectural timer (Sstc extension) - New extension support (Ztso, Zacas) - Support userspace emulation of random number seed CSRs ARM: - Infrastructure for building KVM's trap configuration based on the architectural features (or lack thereof) advertised in the VM's ID registers - Support for mapping vfio-pci BARs as Normal-NC (vaguely similar to x86's WC) at stage-2, improving the performance of interacting with assigned devices that can tolerate it - Conversion of KVM's representation of LPIs to an xarray, utilized to address serialization some of the serialization on the LPI injection path - Support for _architectural_ VHE-only systems, advertised through the absence of FEAT_E2H0 in the CPU's ID register - Miscellaneous cleanups, fixes, and spelling corrections to KVM and selftests LoongArch: - Set reserved bits as zero in CPUCFG - Start SW timer only when vcpu is blocking - Do not restart SW timer when it is expired - Remove unnecessary CSR register saving during enter guest - Misc cleanups and fixes as usual Generic: - Clean up Kconfig by removing CONFIG_HAVE_KVM, which was basically always true on all architectures except MIPS (where Kconfig determines the available depending on CPU capabilities). It is replaced either by an architecture-dependent symbol for MIPS, and IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_KVM) everywhere else - Factor common "select" statements in common code instead of requiring each architecture to specify it - Remove thoroughly obsolete APIs from the uapi headers - Move architecture-dependent stuff to uapi/asm/kvm.h - Always flush the async page fault workqueue when a work item is being removed, especially during vCPU destruction, to ensure that there are no workers running in KVM code when all references to KVM-the-module are gone, i.e. to prevent a very unlikely use-after-free if kvm.ko is unloaded - Grab a reference to the VM's mm_struct in the async #PF worker itself instead of gifting the worker a reference, so that there's no need to remember to *conditionally* clean up after the worker Selftests: - Reduce boilerplate especially when utilize selftest TAP infrastructure - Add basic smoke tests for SEV and SEV-ES, along with a pile of library support for handling private/encrypted/protected memory - Fix benign bugs where tests neglect to close() guest_memfd files" * tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm: (246 commits) selftests: kvm: remove meaningless assignments in Makefiles KVM: riscv: selftests: Add Zacas extension to get-reg-list test RISC-V: KVM: Allow Zacas extension for Guest/VM KVM: riscv: selftests: Add Ztso extension to get-reg-list test RISC-V: KVM: Allow Ztso extension for Guest/VM RISC-V: KVM: Forward SEED CSR access to user space KVM: riscv: selftests: Add sstc timer test KVM: riscv: selftests: Change vcpu_has_ext to a common function KVM: riscv: selftests: Add guest helper to get vcpu id KVM: riscv: selftests: Add exception handling support LoongArch: KVM: Remove unnecessary CSR register saving during enter guest LoongArch: KVM: Do not restart SW timer when it is expired LoongArch: KVM: Start SW timer only when vcpu is blocking LoongArch: KVM: Set reserved bits as zero in CPUCFG KVM: selftests: Explicitly close guest_memfd files in some gmem tests KVM: x86/xen: fix recursive deadlock in timer injection KVM: pfncache: simplify locking and make more self-contained KVM: x86/xen: remove WARN_ON_ONCE() with false positives in evtchn delivery KVM: x86/xen: inject vCPU upcall vector when local APIC is enabled KVM: x86/xen: improve accuracy of Xen timers ... |

arch: define CONFIG_PAGE_SIZE_*KB on all architectures
Most architectures only support a single hardcoded page size. In order to ensure that each one of these sets the corresponding Kconfig symbols, change over the PAGE_SHIFT definition to the common one and allow only the hardware page size to be selected.

s390: compile relocatable kernel without -fPIE
On s390, currently kernel uses the '-fPIE' compiler flag for compiling
vmlinux. This has a few problems:
- It uses dynamic symbols (.dynsym), for which the linker refuses to
allow more than 64k sections. This can break features which use
'-ffunction-sections' and '-fdata-sections', including kpatch-build
[1] and Function Granular KASLR.
- It unnecessarily uses GOT relocations, adding an extra layer of
indirection for many memory accesses.
Instead of using '-fPIE', resolve all the relocations at link time and
then manually adjust any absolute relocations (R_390_64) during boot.
This is done by first telling the linker to preserve all relocations
during the vmlinux link. (Note this is harmless: they are later
stripped in the vmlinux.bin link.)
Then use the 'relocs' tool to find all absolute relocations (R_390_64)
which apply to allocatable sections. The offsets of those relocations
are saved in a special section which is then used to adjust the
relocations during boot.
(Note: For some reason, Clang occasionally creates a GOT reference, even
without '-fPIE'. So Clang-compiled kernels have a GOT, which needs to
be adjusted.)
On my mostly-defconfig kernel, this reduces kernel text size by ~1.3%.
[1] https://github.com/dynup/kpatch/issues/1284
[2] https://gcc.gnu.org/pipermail/gcc-patches/2023-June/622872.html
[3] https://gcc.gnu.org/pipermail/gcc-patches/2023-August/625986.html
Compiler consideration:
Gcc recently implemented an optimization [2] for loading symbols without
explicit alignment, aligning with the IBM Z ELF ABI. This ABI mandates
symbols to reside on a 2-byte boundary, enabling the use of the larl
instruction. However, kernel linker scripts may still generate unaligned
symbols. To address this, a new -munaligned-symbols option has been
introduced [3] in recent gcc versions. This option has to be used with
future gcc versions.
Older Clang lacks support for handling unaligned symbols generated
by kernel linker scripts when the kernel is built without -fPIE. However,
future versions of Clang will include support for the -munaligned-symbols
option. When the support is unavailable, compile the kernel with -fPIE
to maintain the existing behavior.
In addition to it:
move vmlinux.relocs to safe relocation
When the kernel is built with CONFIG_KERNEL_UNCOMPRESSED, the entire
uncompressed vmlinux.bin is positioned in the bzImage decompressor
image at the default kernel LMA of 0x100000, enabling it to be executed
in-place. However, the size of .vmlinux.relocs could be large enough to
cause an overlap with the uncompressed kernel at the address 0x100000.
To address this issue, .vmlinux.relocs is positioned after the
.rodata.compressed in the bzImage. Nevertheless, in this configuration,
vmlinux.relocs will overlap with the .bss section of vmlinux.bin. To
overcome that, move vmlinux.relocs to a safe location before clearing
.bss and handling relocs.
Compile warning fix from Sumanth Korikkar:
When kernel is built with CONFIG_LD_ORPHAN_WARN and -fno-PIE, there are
several warnings:
ld: warning: orphan section `.rela.iplt' from
`arch/s390/kernel/head64.o' being placed in section `.rela.dyn'
ld: warning: orphan section `.rela.head.text' from
`arch/s390/kernel/head64.o' being placed in section `.rela.dyn'
ld: warning: orphan section `.rela.init.text' from
`arch/s390/kernel/head64.o' being placed in section `.rela.dyn'
ld: warning: orphan section `.rela.rodata.cst8' from
`arch/s390/kernel/head64.o' being placed in section `.rela.dyn'
Orphan sections are sections that exist in an object file but don't have
a corresponding output section in the final executable. ld raises a
warning when it identifies such sections.
Eliminate the warning by placing all .rela orphan sections in .rela.dyn
and raise an error when size of .rela.dyn is greater than zero. i.e.
Dont just neglect orphan sections.
This is similar to adjustment performed in x86, where kernel is built
with -fno-PIE.

- SLUB: delayed freezing of CPU partial slabs (Chengming Zhou)
Freezing is an operation involving double_cmpxchg() that makes a slab
exclusive for a particular CPU. Chengming noticed that we use it also
in situations where we are not yet installing the slab as the CPU
slab, because freezing also indicates that the slab is not on the
shared list. This results in redundant freeze/unfreeze operation and
can be avoided by marking separately the shared list presence by
reusing the PG_workingset flag.
This approach neatly avoids the issues described in

kexec: fix KEXEC_FILE dependencies
The cleanup for the CONFIG_KEXEC Kconfig logic accidentally changed the 'depends on CRYPTO=y' dependency to a plain 'depends on CRYPTO', which causes a link failure when all the crypto support is in a loadable module and kexec_file support is built-in: x86_64-linux-ld: vmlinux.o: in function `__x64_sys_kexec_file_load': (.text+0x32e30a): undefined reference to `crypto_alloc_shash' x86_64-linux-ld: (.text+0x32e58e): undefined reference to `crypto_shash_update' x86_64-linux-ld: (.text+0x32e6ee): undefined reference to `crypto_shash_final' Both s390 and x86 have this problem, while ppc64 and riscv have the correct dependency already. On riscv, the dependency is only used for the purgatory, not for the kexec_file code itself, which may be a bit surprising as it means that with CONFIG_CRYPTO=m, it is possible to enable KEXEC_FILE but then the purgatory code is silently left out. Move this into the common Kconfig.kexec file in a way that is correct everywhere, using the dependency on CRYPTO_SHA256=y only when the purgatory code is available. This requires reversing the dependency between ARCH_SUPPORTS_KEXEC_PURGATORY and KEXEC_FILE, but the effect remains the same, other than making riscv behave like the other ones. On s390, there is an additional dependency on CRYPTO_SHA256_S390, which should technically not be required but gives better performance. Remove this dependency here, noting that it was not present in the initial Kconfig code but was brought in without an explanation in commit |

remove ARCH_DEFAULT_KEXEC from Kconfig.kexec
This patch is a minor cleanup to the series "refactor Kconfig to consolidate KEXEC and CRASH options". In that series, a new option ARCH_DEFAULT_KEXEC was introduced in order to obtain the equivalent behavior of s390 original Kconfig settings for KEXEC. As it turns out, this new option did not fully provide the equivalent behavior, rather a "select KEXEC" did. As such, the ARCH_DEFAULT_KEXEC is not needed anymore, so remove it.

mm/vmemmap optimization: split hugetlb and devdax vmemmap optimization
Arm disabled hugetlb vmemmap optimization [1] because hugetlb vmemmap
optimization includes an update of both the permissions (writeable to
read-only) and the output address (pfn) of the vmemmap ptes. That is not
supported without unmapping of pte(marking it invalid) by some
architectures.
With DAX vmemmap optimization we don't require such pte updates and
architectures can enable DAX vmemmap optimization while having hugetlb
vmemmap optimization disabled. Hence split DAX optimization support into
a different config.
s390, loongarch and riscv don't have devdax support. So the DAX config is
not enabled for them. With this change, arm64 should be able to select
DAX optimization

s390: mm: convert to GENERIC_IOREMAP
By taking GENERIC_IOREMAP method, the generic generic_ioremap_prot(), generic_iounmap(), and their generic wrapper ioremap_prot(), ioremap() and iounmap() are all visible and available to arch. Arch needs to provide wrapper functions to override the generic versions if there's arch specific handling in its ioremap_prot(), ioremap() or iounmap(). This change will simplify implementation by removing duplicated code with generic_ioremap_prot() and generic_iounmap(), and has the equivalent functioality as before. Here, add wrapper functions ioremap_prot() and iounmap() for s390's special operation when ioremap() and iounmap(). And also replace including <asm-generic/io.h> with <asm/io.h> in arch/s390/kernel/perf_cpum_sf.c, otherwise building error will be seen because macro defined in <asm/io.h> can't be seen in perf_cpum_sf.c.

s390/hypfs: factor out filesystem code
The s390_hypfs filesystem is deprecated and shouldn't be used due to its rather odd semantics. It creates a whole directory structure with static file contents so a user can read a consistent state while within that directory. Writing to its update attribute will remove and rebuild nearly the whole filesystem, so that again a user can read a consistent state, even if multiple files need to be read. Given that this wastes a lot of CPU cycles, and involves a lot of code, binary interfaces have been added quite a couple of years ago, which simply pass the binary data to user space, and let user space decode the data. This is the preferred and only way how the data should be retrieved. The assumption is that there are no users of the s390_hypfs filesystem. However instead of just removing the code, and having to revert in case there are actually users, factor the filesystem code out and make it only available via a new config option. This config option is supposed to be disabled. If it turns out there are no complaints the filesystem code can be removed probably in a couple of years.

mm: Rename arch pte_mkwrite()'s to pte_mkwrite_novma()
The x86 Shadow stack feature includes a new type of memory called shadow stack. This shadow stack memory has some unusual properties, which requires some core mm changes to function properly. One of these unusual properties is that shadow stack memory is writable, but only in limited ways. These limits are applied via a specific PTE bit combination. Nevertheless, the memory is writable, and core mm code will need to apply the writable permissions in the typical paths that call pte_mkwrite(). The goal is to make pte_mkwrite() take a VMA, so that the x86 implementation of it can know whether to create regular writable or shadow stack mappings. But there are a couple of challenges to this. Modifying the signatures of each arch pte_mkwrite() implementation would be error prone because some are generated with macros and would need to be re-implemented. Also, some pte_mkwrite() callers operate on kernel memory without a VMA. So this can be done in a three step process. First pte_mkwrite() can be renamed to pte_mkwrite_novma() in each arch, with a generic pte_mkwrite() added that just calls pte_mkwrite_novma(). Next callers without a VMA can be moved to pte_mkwrite_novma(). And lastly, pte_mkwrite() and all callers can be changed to take/pass a VMA. Start the process by renaming pte_mkwrite() to pte_mkwrite_novma() and adding the pte_mkwrite() wrapper in linux/pgtable.h. Apply the same pattern for pmd_mkwrite(). Since not all archs have a pmd_mkwrite_novma(), create a new arch config HAS_HUGE_PAGE that can be used to tell if pmd_mkwrite() should be defined. Otherwise in the !HAS_HUGE_PAGE cases the compiler would not be able to find pmd_mkwrite_novma(). No functional change.

s390 updates for 6.5 merge window
- Fix the style of protected key API driver source: use x-mas tree for all local variable declarations. - Rework protected key API driver to not use the struct pkey_protkey and pkey_clrkey anymore. Both structures have a fixed size buffer, but with the support of ECC protected key these buffers are not big enough.

s390/iommu: get rid of S390_CCW_IOMMU and S390_AP_IOMMU
These don't do anything anymore, the only user of the symbol was VFIO_CCW/AP which already "depends on VFIO" and VFIO itself selects IOMMU_API. When this was added VFIO was wrongly doing "depends on IOMMU_API" which required some contortions like this to ensure IOMMU_API was turned on.

s390: select ARCH_SUPPORTS_INT128
s390 has instructions to support 128 bit arithmetics, e.g. a 64 bit multiply instruction with a 128 bit result. Also 128 bit integer artithmetics are already used in s390 specific architecture code (see e.g. read_persistent_clock64()). Therefore select ARCH_SUPPORTS_INT128. However limit this to clang for now, since gcc generates inefficient code, which may lead to stack overflows, when compiling lib/crypto/curve25519-hacl64.c which depends on ARCH_SUPPORTS_INT128. The gcc generated functions have 6kb stack frames, compared to only 1kb of the code generated with clang. If the kernel is compiled with -Os library calls for __ashlti3(), __ashrti3(), and __lshrti3() may be generated. Similar to arm64 and riscv provide assembler implementations for these functions.

s390/mm: enable ARCH_HAS_SET_DIRECT_MAP
Implement the set_direct_map_*() API, which allows to invalidate and set default permissions to pages within the direct mapping. Note that kernel_page_present(), which is also supposed to be part of this API, is intentionally not implemented. The reason for this is that kernel_page_present() is only used (and currently only makes sense) for suspend/resume, which isn't supported on s390.

s390: enable HAVE_ARCH_STACKLEAK
Add support for the stackleak feature. Whenever the kernel returns to user space the kernel stack is filled with a poison value. Enabling this feature is quite expensive: e.g. after instrumenting the getpid() system call function to have a 4kb stack the result is an increased runtime of the system call by a factor of 3.

s390: enable ARCH_HAS_MEMBARRIER_SYNC_CORE
s390 trivially supports the ARCH_HAS_MEMBARRIER_SYNC_CORE requirements
since the used lpswe(y) instruction to return from any kernel context to
user space performs CPU serialization. This is very similar to arm, arm64
and powerpc.

s390 updates for 6.3 merge window part 2
- Add empty command line parameter handling stubs to kernel for all command line parameters which are handled in the decompressor. This avoids invalid "Unknown kernel command line parameters" messages from the kernel, and also avoids that these will be incorrectly passed to user space. This caused already confusion, therefore add the empty stubs - Add missing phys_to_virt() handling to machine check handler - Introduce and use a union to be used for zcrypt inline assemblies. This makes sure that only a register wide member of the union is passed as input and output parameter to inline assemblies, while usual C code uses other members of the union to access bit fields of it - Add and use a READ_ONCE_ALIGNED_128() macro, which can be used to atomically read a 128-bit value from memory. This replaces the (mis-)use of the 128-bit cmpxchg operation to do the same in cpum_sf code. Currently gcc does not generate the used lpq instruction if __READ_ONCE() is used for aligned 128-bit accesses, therefore use this s390 specific helper - Simplify machine check handler code if a task needs to be killed because of e.g. register corruption due to a machine malfunction - Perform CPU reset to clear pending interrupts and TLB entries on an already stopped target CPU before delegating work to it - Generate arch/s390/boot/vmlinux.map link map for the decompressor, when CONFIG_VMLINUX_MAP is enabled for debugging purposes - Fix segment type handling for dcssblk devices. It incorrectly always returned type "READ/WRITE" even for read-only segements, which can result in a kernel panic if somebody tries to write to a read-only device - Sort config S390 select list again - Fix two kprobe reenter bugs revealed by a recently added kprobe kunit test -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAABCAAdFiEECMNfWEw3SLnmiLkZIg7DeRspbsIFAmQB5LgACgkQIg7DeRsp bsLvPRAAojiU7uZTDKL58Ta67D7gyWWZa6ClI7MHrtEwEM70cOZHmOYToFuyapbT Af+PBg8YcqDDHxGf+HNuxnYRI4y2hGJUyjURZmGuCzPPJ5IGvy+8/X0d0wsvclqC fWeTtVvZIxdu5NdBQTs1iMCCxPXg9OfGDVCU+P/pnrlKskHorA6a2ZWGdkpae3fj kd1pgLLcZq0Jf8+Q6bSLBZjm45R/Q+qEpd8eIOncP7xrQTpLPkLxRSrnZLPtYdLu 7uUDtzEC63x7/0Weri71ZQqbc22CzHNiF6FZj5sm78KsWmparmUUsns/U5CrEO4J e85/kPXjgfvwMZdQCXSPHZJ8CGTRzN6Zl/Lym9W5+9X6cgb1WNVNCATGZIG3HueA MYnXmLkmNmaEgsckcYbCVPR9SjIwVibIL+/32hH63oUnc8WnrbVlai/G57j0dRUg +kxVvwbxaDyesRbF7XKe4PssYZJxpO+QFIhnvo6EEghUuc32o+WVNqjoU04/VBaa i2FtbARGDWWs5+EwS9td/xHiFPQHpFCJHrMbxacEQmtDbOTOhoLbxNlP17YfQ2oD ch0QCZ1w0VwE9ehMRLmZQCem51n7aPt11tKOEFKsck4Mb1dXVLW9LWwNpjIBXrIo 2g4U4Ytj2I9HbxWMJmKmLsP4NHn2oG3A+uGUkSWf/wdDTfylB30= =zZId -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 's390-6.3-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/s390/linux Pull more s390 updates from Heiko Carstens: - Add empty command line parameter handling stubs to kernel for all command line parameters which are handled in the decompressor.

s390 updates for 6.2 merge window
- Factor out handle_write() function and simplify 3215 console write operation. - When 3170 terminal emulator is connected to the 3215 console driver the boot time could be very long due to limited buffer space or missing operator input. Add con3215_drop command line parameter and con3215_drop sysfs attribute file to instruct the kernel drop console data when such conditions are met. - Fix white space errors in 3215 console driver. - Move enum paiext_mode definition to a header file and rename it to paievt_mode to indicate this is now used for several events. Rename PAI_MODE_COUNTER to PAI_MODE_COUNTING to make consistent with PAI_MODE_SAMPLING. - Simplify the logic of PMU pai_crypto mapped buffer reference counter and make it consistent with PMU pai_ext. - Rename PMU pai_crypto mapped buffer structure member users to active_events to make it consistent with PMU pai_ext. - Enable HUGETLB_PAGE_OPTIMIZE_VMEMMAP configuration option. This results in saving of 12K per 1M hugetlb page (~1.2%) and 32764K per 2G hugetlb page (~1.6%). - Use generic serial.h, bugs.h, shmparam.h and vga.h header files and scrap s390-specific versions. - The generic percpu setup code does not expect the s390-like implementation and emits a warning. To get rid of that warning and provide sane CPU-to-node and CPU-to-CPU distance mappings implementat a minimal version of setup_per_cpu_areas(). - Use kstrtobool() instead of strtobool() for re-IPL sysfs device attributes. - Avoid unnecessary lookup of a pointer to MSI descriptor when setting IRQ affinity for a PCI device. - Get rid of "an incompatible function type cast" warning by changing debug_sprintf_format_fn() function prototype so it matches the debug_format_proc_t function type. - Remove unused info_blk_hdr__pcpus() and get_page_state() functions. - Get rid of clang "unused unused insn cache ops function" warning by moving s390_insn definition to a private header. - Get rid of clang "unused function" warning by making function raw3270_state_final() only available if CONFIG_TN3270_CONSOLE is enabled. - Use kstrobool() to parse sclp_con_drop parameter to make it identical to the con3215_drop parameter and allow passing values like "yes" and "true". - Use sysfs_emit() for all SCLP sysfs show functions, which is the current standard way to generate output strings. - Make SCLP con_drop sysfs attribute also writable and allow to change its value during runtime. This makes SCLP console drop handling consistent with the 3215 device driver. - Virtual and physical addresses are indentical on s390. However, there is still a confusion when pointers are directly casted to physical addresses or vice versa. Use correct address converters virt_to_phys() and phys_to_virt() for s390 channel IO drivers. - Support for power managemant has been removed from s390 since quite some time.

Add wrapper include header file to avoid this problem. - Use vector instruction macros instead of byte patterns to increase register validation routine readability. - The current machine check register validation handling does not take into account various scenarios and might lead to killing a wrong user process or potentially ignore corrupted FPU registers. Simplify logic of the machine check handler and stop the whole machine if the previous context was kerenel mode.

It is supposed to be used in cases where regular console device drivers may not work anymore, e.g. unrecoverable machine checks. Keep the early Service-Call Control Block so it can also be used after initdata has been freed to allow sclp_emergency_printk() implementation. - In case a system will be stopped because of an unrecoverable machine check error print the machine check interruption code to give a hint of what went wrong. - Move storage error checking from the assembly entry code to C in order to simplify machine check handling. Enter the handler with DAT turned on, which simplifies the entry code even more. - The machine check extended save areas are allocated using a private "nmi_save_areas" slab cache which guarantees a required power-of-two alignment.

RCU pull request for v6.2
This pull request contains the following branches: doc.2022.10.20a: Documentation updates. This is the second in a series from an ongoing review of the RCU documentation. fixes.2022.10.21a: Miscellaneous fixes. lazy.2022.11.30a: Introduces a default-off Kconfig option that depends on RCU_NOCB_CPU that, on CPUs mentioned in the nohz_full or rcu_nocbs boot-argument CPU lists, causes call_rcu() to introduce delays. These delays result in significant power savings on nearly idle Android and ChromeOS systems. These savings range from a few percent to more than ten percent. This series also includes several commits that change call_rcu() to a new call_rcu_hurry() function that avoids these delays in a few cases, for example, where timely wakeups are required. Several of these are outside of RCU and thus have acks and reviews from the relevant maintainers. srcunmisafe.2022.11.09a: Creates an srcu_read_lock_nmisafe() and an srcu_read_unlock_nmisafe() for architectures that support NMIs, but which do not provide NMI-safe this_cpu_inc(). These NMI-safe SRCU functions are required by the upcoming lockless printk() work by John Ogness et al. That printk() series depends on these commits, so if you pull the printk() series before this one, you will have already pulled in this branch, plus two more SRCU commits: |

s390/mm: provide minimal setup_per_cpu_areas() implementation
s390 allows to enable CONFIG_NUMA, mainly to enable a couple of system calls which are only present if NUMA is enabled. The NUMA specific system calls are required by a couple of applications, which wouldn't work if the system calls wouldn't be present. The NUMA implementation itself maps all CPUs and memory to node 0. A special case is the generic percpu setup code, which doesn't expect an s390 like implementation and therefore emits a message/warning: "percpu: cpu 0 has no node -1 or node-local memory". In order to get rid of this message, and also to provide sane CPU to node and CPU distance mappings implement a minimal setup_per_cpu_areas() function, which is very close to the generic variant.

s390: select ARCH_WANT_HUGETLB_PAGE_OPTIMIZE_VMEMMAP
Enable HUGETLB_PAGE_OPTIMIZE_VMEMMAP for s390.
With this, vmemmap pages used to back struct pages for compound tail
pages of hugetlb pages are freed and remapped to compound head page
frame as RO, see also Documentation/vm/vmemmap_dedup.rst.
For 1M hugetlb pages, this results in freeing 3 of 4 vmemmap pages,
saving 12K of memory for each 1M hugetlb page (~1.2%).
/sys/kernel/debug/kernel_page_tables will show the impact:
---[ vmemmap Area Start ]---
[...]
0x0000037202d84000-0x0000037202d85000 4K PTE RW NX
0x0000037202d85000-0x0000037202d88000 12K PTE RO NX
For 2G hugetlb pages, this results in freeing 8191 of 8192 vmemmap
pages, saving 32764K of memory for each 2G hugetlb page (~1.6%)
/sys/kernel/debug/kernel_page_tables will show the impact:
---[ vmemmap Area Start ]---
[...]
0x000003720a000000-0x000003720a001000 4K PTE RW NX
0x000003720a001000-0x000003720c000000 32764K PTE RO NX
The memory savings come with some costs:
- vmemmap mapping for compound hugetlb pages is not a PMD mapping any
more, but split to 4K PTE mappings, and it will not be coalesced back
to PMD mapping after freeing hugetlb pages from the pool.
Apart from theoretical performance impact, this will also (slightly)
relativize the memory savings because of additional 2K PTE pagetable
allocations.
- Workload using "on the fly" hugetlb allocations via
"nr_overcommit_hugepages" instead of using the hugetlb pool via
"nr_hugepages" will suffer from considerably increased fault handling
time, see also description from commit

CONFIG_RELOCATABLE disabled, after binutils commit 906f69cf65da ("IBM
zSystems: Issue error for *DBL relocs on misaligned symbols"). The binutils
commit reveals potential miscompiles that might have happened already
before with linker script defined symbols at odd addresses.
A similar bug was recently fixed in the kernel with commit

arch/s390: Add ARCH_HAS_NMI_SAFE_THIS_CPU_OPS Kconfig option
The s390 architecture uses either a cmpxchg loop (old systems) or the laa add-to-memory instruction (new systems) to implement this_cpu_add(), both of which are NMI safe. This means that the old and more-efficient srcu_read_lock() may be used in NMI context, without the need for srcu_read_lock_nmisafe(). Therefore, add the new Kconfig option ARCH_HAS_NMI_SAFE_THIS_CPU_OPS to arch/s390/Kconfig, which will cause NEED_SRCU_NMI_SAFE to be deselected, thus preserving the current srcu_read_lock() behavior.

This change allowed simplifying a bit of arch code. - x86's RDRAND boot time test has been made a bit more robust, with RDRAND disabled if it's clearly producing bogus results. This would be a tip.git commit, technically, but I took it through random.git to avoid a large merge conflict. - The RNG has long since mixed in a timestamp very early in boot, on the premise that a computer that does the same things, but does so starting at different points in wall time, could be made to still produce a different RNG state. Unfortunately, the clock isn't set early in boot on all systems, so now we mix in that timestamp when the time is actually set. - User Mode Linux now uses the host OS's getrandom() syscall to generate a bootloader RNG seed and later on treats getrandom() as the platform's RDRAND-like faculty. - The arch_get_random_{seed_,}_long() family of functions is now arch_get_random_{seed_,}_longs(), which enables certain platforms, such as s390, to exploit considerable performance advantages from requesting multiple CPU random numbers at once, while at the same time compiling down to the same code as before on platforms like x86. - A small cleanup changing a cmpxchg() into a try_cmpxchg(), from Uros. - A comment spelling fix" More info about other random number changes that come in through various architecture trees in the full commentary in the pull request: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220731232428.2219258-1-Jason@zx2c4.com/ * tag 'random-6.0-rc1-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/crng/random: random: correct spelling of "overwrites" random: handle archrandom with multiple longs um: seed rng using host OS rng random: use try_cmpxchg in _credit_init_bits timekeeping: contribute wall clock to rng on time change x86/rdrand: Remove "nordrand" flag in favor of "random.trust_cpu" random: remove CONFIG_ARCH_RANDOM |

mmu_gather: Remove per arch tlb_{start,end}_vma()
Scattered across the archs are 3 basic forms of tlb_{start,end}_vma(). Provide two new MMU_GATHER_knobs to enumerate them and remove the per arch tlb_{start,end}_vma() implementations. - MMU_GATHER_NO_FLUSH_CACHE indicates the arch has flush_cache_range() but does *NOT* want to call it for each VMA. - MMU_GATHER_MERGE_VMAS indicates the arch wants to merge the invalidate across multiple VMAs if possible. With these it is possible to capture the three forms: 1) empty stubs; select MMU_GATHER_NO_FLUSH_CACHE and MMU_GATHER_MERGE_VMAS 2) start: flush_cache_range(), end: empty; select MMU_GATHER_MERGE_VMAS 3) start: flush_cache_range(), end: flush_tlb_range(); default Obviously, if the architecture does not have flush_cache_range() then it also doesn't need to select MMU_GATHER_NO_FLUSH_CACHE.

random: remove CONFIG_ARCH_RANDOM
When RDRAND was introduced, there was much discussion on whether it should be trusted and how the kernel should handle that. Initially, two mechanisms cropped up, CONFIG_ARCH_RANDOM, a compile time switch, and "nordrand", a boot-time switch. Later the thinking evolved. With a properly designed RNG, using RDRAND values alone won't harm anything, even if the outputs are malicious. Rather, the issue is whether those values are being *trusted* to be good or not. And so a new set of options were introduced as the real ones that people use -- CONFIG_RANDOM_TRUST_CPU and "random.trust_cpu". With these options, RDRAND is used, but it's not always credited. So in the worst case, it does nothing, and in the best case, maybe it helps. Along the way, CONFIG_ARCH_RANDOM's meaning got sort of pulled into the center and became something certain platforms force-select. The old options don't really help with much, and it's a bit odd to have special handling for these instructions when the kernel can deal fine with the existence or untrusted existence or broken existence or non-existence of that CPU capability. Simplify the situation by removing CONFIG_ARCH_RANDOM and using the ordinary asm-generic fallback pattern instead, keeping the two options that are actually used. For now it leaves "nordrand" for now, as the removal of that will take a different route.

Instead of using arch_has_restricted_virtio_memory_access() together with CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_RESTRICTED_VIRTIO_MEMORY_ACCESS, replace those with platform_has() and a new platform feature PLATFORM_VIRTIO_RESTRICTED_MEM_ACCESS.

- Add Eric Farman as maintainer for s390 virtio drivers. - Improve machine check handling, and avoid incorrectly injecting a machine check into a kvm guest. - Add cond_resched() call to gmap page table walker in order to avoid possible huge latencies. Also use non-quiesing sske instruction to speed up storage key handling. - Add __GFP_NORETRY to KEXEC_CONTROL_MEMORY_GFP so s390 behaves similar like common code. - Get sie control block address from correct stack slot in perf event code. This fixes potential random memory accesses. - Change uaccess code so that the exception handler sets the result of get_user() and __get_kernel_nofault() to zero in case of a fault. Until now this was done via input parameters for inline assemblies. Doing it via fault handling is what most or even all other architectures are doing. - Couple of other small cleanups and fixes. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAABCAAdFiEECMNfWEw3SLnmiLkZIg7DeRspbsIFAmKZ2IMACgkQIg7DeRsp bsIXgg/+JeKOFIfwWWZuk2/2drITjQxWL6OwAV/vHVL9bYVGGRgFHTfF7Qslr2Hb j/kh55hajjMt00bVS6P52I7cC+xB6PcxPK4jF+u2FXcL187QnWZg7VD7qkFO3E7Q G5jiWub0eNfd3ijytzSO1yLwv3Rh6GEIOi7lRkk88Fe2B9l0AaXbvnr7rrIoG1SS TCPUoCCNKEH+xPmujdN5B6CDK2ldukcPZHtAJ9Qxu6DWAWIxh+hHr/c1zW9/7kDj Vogc3gcgApeXTsMZu38c2tFiv6wxvg37cMa0EW+l5zkyeFn+a1CLSxA/qPi0N1UY pFcxrlWXWshr7vKn16lJoCe1nBVyfb9ohToLKQtnWB7RZ86lP79tVjOpiQ4qi+jl 54yx/rdtycEDaC0w4ab5kfZPc9/EeaY4ppaOLjh4+r/Ve3x+EMcAZ9Q2Ei3ltRBy 75kswnRvHDWMbtS8rNecdk29QNRvLpnzpGLWQ4wGCV7V9FzTtJwO5mdjuibhSoI8 9dZw4/HGMeA2P1pAE/d1YqKbdgqlNzDyU1dYpk6PVBI0I9mUu36eZXQnjrBN++ki 8TWQYkBv6vnUHJmkfEK7B/thYwljzlQJSje4ebj0aPWzBJ9An+U5ozoANlAu97MR /EVZM67snrT6aSOjhF6SNjWqMGBOlMVecF+GCsVrFEeah+qrYq4= =BOi4 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 's390-5.19-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/s390/linux Pull more s390 updates from Heiko Carstens: "Just a couple of small improvements, bug fixes and cleanups: - Add Eric Farman as maintainer for s390 virtio drivers. - Improve machine check handling, and avoid incorrectly injecting a machine check into a kvm guest. - Add cond_resched() call to gmap page table walker in order to avoid possible huge latencies.

kbuild: link symbol CRCs at final link, removing CONFIG_MODULE_REL_CRCS
include/{linux,asm-generic}/export.h defines a weak symbol, __crc_* as a placeholder. Genksyms writes the version CRCs into the linker script, which will be used for filling the __crc_* symbols. The linker script format depends on CONFIG_MODULE_REL_CRCS. If it is enabled, __crc_* holds the offset to the reference of CRC. It is time to get rid of this complexity. Now that modpost parses text files (.*.cmd) to collect all the CRCs, it can generate C code that will be linked to the vmlinux or modules. Generate a new C file, .vmlinux.export.c, which contains the CRCs of symbols exported by vmlinux. It is compiled and linked to vmlinux in scripts/link-vmlinux.sh. Put the CRCs of symbols exported by modules into the existing *.mod.c files. No additional build step is needed for modules. As before, *.mod.c are compiled and linked to *.ko in scripts/Makefile.modfinal. No linker magic is used here. The new C implementation works in the same way, whether CONFIG_RELOCATABLE is enabled or not. CONFIG_MODULE_REL_CRCS is no longer needed. Previously, Kbuild invoked additional $(LD) to update the CRCs in objects, but this step is unneeded too.

s390/unwind: avoid duplicated unwinding entries for kretprobes
Currently when unwinding starts from pt_regs or encounters pt_regs along the way unwinder tries to yield 2 unwinding entries: 1. (reliable) ip1: pt_regs->psw.addr, sp1: regs->gprs[15] 2. (non-reliable) ip2: sp1->gprs[8] (r14), sp2: regs->gprs[15] In case of kretprobes those are identical and serves no other purpose than causing confusion over duplicated entries and cause kprobes tests to fail. So, skip a duplicate non-reliable entry in this case. With that kretprobes and unwinder implementation now comply with ARCH_CORRECT_STACKTRACE_ON_KRETPROBE.

asm-generic updates for 5.18
There are three sets of updates for 5.18 in the asm-generic tree: - The set_fs()/get_fs() infrastructure gets removed for good. This was already gone from all major architectures, but now we can finally remove it everywhere, which loses some particularly tricky and error-prone code. There is a small merge conflict against a parisc cleanup, the solution is to use their new version. - The nds32 architecture ends its tenure in the Linux kernel. The hardware is still used and the code is in reasonable shape, but the mainline port is not actively maintained any more, as all remaining users are thought to run vendor kernels that would never be updated to a future release. There are some obvious conflicts against changes to the removed files. - A series from Masahiro Yamada cleans up some of the uapi header files to pass the compile-time checks. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAABCgAdFiEEo6/YBQwIrVS28WGKmmx57+YAGNkFAmI69BsACgkQmmx57+YA GNn/zA//f4d5VTT0ThhRxRWTu9BdThGHoB8TUcY7iOhbsWu0X/913NItRC3UeWNl IdmisaXgVtirg1dcC2pWUmrcHdoWOCEGfK4+Zr2NhSWfuZDWvODHK9pGWk4WLnhe cQgUNBvIuuAMryGtrOBwHPO4TpfCyy2ioeVP36ZfcsWXdDxTrqfaq/56mk3sxIP6 sUTk1UEjut9NG4C9xIIvcSU50R3l6LryQE/H9kyTLtaSvfvTOvprcVYCq0GPmSzo DtQ1Wwa9zbJ+4EqoMiP5RrgQwWvOTg2iRByLU8ytwlX3e/SEF0uihvMv1FQbL8zG G8RhGUOKQSEhaBfc3lIkm8GpOVPh0uHzB6zhn7daVmAWtazRD2Nu59BMjipa+ims a8Z58iHH7jRAnKeEkVZqXKb1CEiUxaQx/IeVPzN4QlwMhDtwrI76LY7ZJ1zCqTGY ENG0yRLav1XselYBslOYXGtOEWcY5EZPWqLyWbp4P9vz2g0Fe0gZxoIOvPmNQc89 QnfXpCt7vm/DGkyO255myu08GOLeMkisVqUIzLDB9avlym5mri7T7vk9abBa2YyO CRpTL5gl1/qKPWuH1UI5mvhT+sbbBE2SUHSuy84btns39ZKKKynwCtdu+hSQkKLE h9pV30Gf1cLTD4JAE0RWlUgOmbBLVp34loTOexQj4MrLM1noOnw= =vtCN -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'asm-generic-5.18' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/asm-generic Pull asm-generic updates from Arnd Bergmann: "There are three sets of updates for 5.18 in the asm-generic tree: - The set_fs()/get_fs() infrastructure gets removed for good.

s390: raise minimum supported machine generation to z10
Machine generations up to z9 (released in May 2006) have been officially out of service for several years now (z9 end of service - January 31, 2019). No distributions build kernels supporting those old machine generations anymore, except Debian, which seems to pick the oldest supported generation. The team supporting Debian on s390 has been notified about the change. Raising minimum supported machine generation to z10 helps to reduce maintenance cost and effectively remove code, which is not getting enough testing coverage due to lack of older hardware and distributions support. Besides that this unblocks some optimization opportunities and allows to use wider instruction set in asm files for future features implementation. Due to this change spectre mitigation and usercopy implementations could be drastically simplified and many newer instructions could be converted from ".insn" encoding to instruction names.
