Deferred unwind changes for 6.17
This is the core infrastructure for the deferred unwinder that is required for sframes[1]. Several other patch series is based on this work although those patch series are not dependent on each other. In order to simplify the development, having this core series upstream will allow the other series to be worked on in parallel. The other series are: - The two patches to implement x86: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-trace-kernel/20250717004958.260781923@kernel.org/ https://lore.kernel.org/linux-trace-kernel/20250717004958.432327787@kernel.org/ - The s390 work: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-trace-kernel/20250710163522.3195293-1-jremus@linux.ibm.com/ - The perf work: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-trace-kernel/20250718164119.089692174@kernel.org/ - The ftrace work: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-trace-kernel/20250424192612.505622711@goodmis.org/ - The sframe work: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-trace-kernel/20250717012848.927473176@kernel.org/ And more is on the way. The core infrastructure adds the following in kernel APIs: - int unwind_user_faultable(struct unwind_stacktrace *trace); Performs a user space stack trace that may fault user pages in. - int unwind_deferred_init(struct unwind_work *work, unwind_callback_t func); Allows a tracer to register with the unwind deferred infrastructure. - int unwind_deferred_request(struct unwind_work *work, u64 *cookie); Used when a tracer request a deferred trace. Can be called from interrupt or NMI context. - void unwind_deferred_cancel(struct unwind_work *work); Called by a tracer to unregister from the deferred unwind infrastructure. - void unwind_deferred_task_exit(struct task_struct *task); Called by task exit code to flush any pending unwind requests. - void unwind_task_init(struct task_struct *task); Called by do_fork() to initialize the task struct for the deferred unwinder. - void unwind_task_free(struct task_struct *task); Called by do_exit() to free up any resources used by the deferred unwinder. None of the above is actually compiled unless an architecture enables it, which none currently do.

still excludes some specialized situations where this cannot be
performed reliably.

stats update" from SeongJae Park augments the present
userspace-requested update of DAMON sysfs monitoring files. Automatic
update is now provided, along with a tunable to control the update
interval.
- The 4 patch series "Some randome fixes and cleanups to swapfile" from
Kemeng Shi does what is claims.
- The 4 patch series "mm: introduce snapshot_page" from Luiz Capitulino
and David Hildenbrand provides (and uses) a means by which debug-style
functions can grab a copy of a pageframe and inspect it locklessly
without tripping over the races inherent in operating on the live
pageframe directly.
- The 6 patch series "use per-vma locks for /proc/pid/maps reads" from
Suren Baghdasaryan addresses the large contention issues which can be
triggered by reads from that procfs file. Latencies are reduced by more

selftests for the /proc/pid/maps interface.
- The 6 patch series "__folio_split() clean up" from Zi Yan cleans up
__folio_split()!

Stoakes extends the mremap() selftest in several ways, including adding
more checking of Lorenzo's recently added "permit mremap() move of
multiple VMAs" feature.
- The 22 patch series "selftests/damon/sysfs.py: test all parameters"
from SeongJae Park extends the DAMON sysfs interface selftest so that it
tests all possible user-requested parameters. Rather than the present
minimal subset.

ARM:
- Host driver for GICv5, the next generation interrupt controller for arm64, including support for interrupt routing, MSIs, interrupt translation and wired interrupts. - Use FEAT_GCIE_LEGACY on GICv5 systems to virtualize GICv3 VMs on GICv5 hardware, leveraging the legacy VGIC interface. - Userspace control of the 'nASSGIcap' GICv3 feature, allowing userspace to disable support for SGIs w/o an active state on hardware that previously advertised it unconditionally. - Map supporting endpoints with cacheable memory attributes on systems with FEAT_S2FWB and DIC where KVM no longer needs to perform cache maintenance on the address range. - Nested support for FEAT_RAS and FEAT_DoubleFault2, allowing the guest hypervisor to inject external aborts into an L2 VM and take traps of masked external aborts to the hypervisor. - Convert more system register sanitization to the config-driven implementation. - Fixes to the visibility of EL2 registers, namely making VGICv3 system registers accessible through the VGIC device instead of the ONE_REG vCPU ioctls. - Various cleanups and minor fixes. LoongArch: - Add stat information for in-kernel irqchip - Add tracepoints for CPUCFG and CSR emulation exits - Enhance in-kernel irqchip emulation - Various cleanups. RISC-V: - Enable ring-based dirty memory tracking - Improve perf kvm stat to report interrupt events - Delegate illegal instruction trap to VS-mode - MMU improvements related to upcoming nested virtualization s390x - Fixes x86: - Add CONFIG_KVM_IOAPIC for x86 to allow disabling support for I/O APIC, PIC, and PIT emulation at compile time. - Share device posted IRQ code between SVM and VMX and harden it against bugs and runtime errors. - Use vcpu_idx, not vcpu_id, for GA log tag/metadata, to make lookups O(1) instead of O(n). - For MMIO stale data mitigation, track whether or not a vCPU has access to (host) MMIO based on whether the page tables have MMIO pfns mapped; using VFIO is prone to false negatives - Rework the MSR interception code so that the SVM and VMX APIs are more or less identical. - Recalculate all MSR intercepts from scratch on MSR filter changes, instead of maintaining shadow bitmaps. - Advertise support for LKGS (Load Kernel GS base), a new instruction that's loosely related to FRED, but is supported and enumerated independently. - Fix a user-triggerable WARN that syzkaller found by setting the vCPU in INIT_RECEIVED state (aka wait-for-SIPI), and then putting the vCPU into VMX Root Mode (post-VMXON). Trying to detect every possible path leading to architecturally forbidden states is hard and even risks breaking userspace (if it goes from valid to valid state but passes through invalid states), so just wait until KVM_RUN to detect that the vCPU state isn't allowed. - Add KVM_X86_DISABLE_EXITS_APERFMPERF to allow disabling interception of APERF/MPERF reads, so that a "properly" configured VM can access APERF/MPERF. This has many caveats (APERF/MPERF cannot be zeroed on vCPU creation or saved/restored on suspend and resume, or preserved over thread migration let alone VM migration) but can be useful whenever you're interested in letting Linux guests see the effective physical CPU frequency in /proc/cpuinfo. - Reject KVM_SET_TSC_KHZ for vm file descriptors if vCPUs have been created, as there's no known use case for changing the default frequency for other VM types and it goes counter to the very reason why the ioctl was added to the vm file descriptor. And also, there would be no way to make it work for confidential VMs with a "secure" TSC, so kill two birds with one stone. - Dynamically allocation the shadow MMU's hashed page list, and defer allocating the hashed list until it's actually needed (the TDP MMU doesn't use the list). - Extract many of KVM's helpers for accessing architectural local APIC state to common x86 so that they can be shared by guest-side code for Secure AVIC. - Various cleanups and fixes. x86 (Intel): - Preserve the host's DEBUGCTL.FREEZE_IN_SMM when running the guest. Failure to honor FREEZE_IN_SMM can leak host state into guests. - Explicitly check vmcs12.GUEST_DEBUGCTL on nested VM-Enter to prevent L1 from running L2 with features that KVM doesn't support, e.g. BTF. x86 (AMD): - WARN and reject loading kvm-amd.ko instead of panicking the kernel if the nested SVM MSRPM offsets tracker can't handle an MSR (which is pretty much a static condition and therefore should never happen, but still). - Fix a variety of flaws and bugs in the AVIC device posted IRQ code. - Inhibit AVIC if a vCPU's ID is too big (relative to what hardware supports) instead of rejecting vCPU creation. - Extend enable_ipiv module param support to SVM, by simply leaving IsRunning clear in the vCPU's physical ID table entry. - Disable IPI virtualization, via enable_ipiv, if the CPU is affected by erratum #1235, to allow (safely) enabling AVIC on such CPUs. - Request GA Log interrupts if and only if the target vCPU is blocking, i.e. only if KVM needs a notification in order to wake the vCPU. - Intercept SPEC_CTRL on AMD if the MSR shouldn't exist according to the vCPU's CPUID model. - Accept any SNP policy that is accepted by the firmware with respect to SMT and single-socket restrictions.

Updates for the timekeeping and VDSO code:
- Introduce support for auxiliary timekeepers
PTP clocks can be disconnected from the universal CLOCK_TAI reality
for various reasons including regularatory requirements for
functional safety redundancy.
The kernel so far only supports a single notion of time, which means
that all clocks are correlated in frequency and only differ by
offset to each other.
Access to non-correlated PTP clocks has been available so far only
through the file descriptor based "POSIX clock IDs", which are
subject to locking and have to go all the way out to the hardware.
The access is not only horribly slow, as it has to go all the way out
to the NIC/PTP hardware, but that also prevents the kernel to read
the time of such clocks e.g. from the network stack, where it is
required for TSN networking both on the transmit and receive side
unless the hardware provides offloading.
The auxiliary clocks provide a mechanism to support arbitrary clocks
which are not correlated to the system clock. This is not restricted
to the PTP use case on purpose as there is no kernel side association
of these clocks to a particular PTP device because that's a pure user
space configuration decision. Having them independent allows to
utilize them for other purposes and also enables them to be tested
without hardware dependencies.
To avoid pointless overhead these clocks have to be enabled
individualy via a new sysfs interface to reduce the overhead to a
single compare in the hotpath if they are enabled at the Kconfig
level at all.
These clocks utilize the existing timekeeping/NTP infrastructures,
which has been made possible over the recent releases by incrementaly
converting these infrastructures over from a single static instance
to a multi-instance pointer based implementation without any
performance regression reported.
The auxiliary clocks provide the same "emulation" of a "correct"
clock as the existing CLOCK_* variants do with an independent
instance of data and provide the same steering mechanism through the
existing sys_clock_adjtime() interface, which has been confirmed to
work by the chronyd(8) maintainer.
That allows to provide lockless kernel internal and VDSO support so
that applications and kernel internal functionalities can access
these clocks without restrictions and at the same performance as the
existing system clocks.
- Avoid double notifications in the adjtimex() syscall. Not a big issue,
but a trivial to avoid latency source.

unwind_user: Add user space unwinding API with frame pointer support
Introduce a generic API for unwinding user stacks. In order to expand user space unwinding to be able to handle more complex scenarios, such as deferred unwinding and reading user space information, create a generic interface that all architectures can use that support the various unwinding methods. This is an alternative method for handling user space stack traces from the simple stack_trace_save_user() API. This does not replace that interface, but this interface will be used to expand the functionality of user space stack walking. None of the structures introduced will be exposed to user space tooling. Support for frame pointer unwinding is added. For an architecture to support frame pointer unwinding it needs to enable CONFIG_HAVE_UNWIND_USER_FP and define ARCH_INIT_USER_FP_FRAME. By encoding the frame offsets in struct unwind_user_frame, much of this code can also be reused for future unwinder implementations like sframe.

tracing: Remove redundant config HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT_RECORD
Ftrace is tightly coupled with architecture specific code because it requires the use of trampolines written in assembly. This means that when a new feature or optimization is made, it must be done for all architectures. To simplify the approach, CONFIG_HAVE_FTRACE_* configs are added to denote which architecture has the new enhancement so that other architectures can still function until they too have been updated. The CONFIG_HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT was added to help simplify the DYNAMIC_FTRACE work, but now every architecture that implements DYNAMIC_FTRACE also has HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT set too, making it redundant with the HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE. Remove the HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT config and use DYNAMIC_FTRACE directly where applicable.

mm/hugetlb: remove prepare_hugepage_range()
Only mips and loongarch implemented this API, however what it does was checking against stack overflow for either len or addr. That's already done in arch's arch_get_unmapped_area*() functions, even though it may not be 100% identical checks. For example, for both of the architectures, there will be a trivial difference on how stack top was defined. The old code uses STACK_TOP which may be slightly smaller than TASK_SIZE on either of them, but the hope is that shouldn't be a problem. It means the whole API is pretty much obsolete at least now, remove it completely.

codetag: avoid unused alloc_tags sections/symbols
With CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING=n, vmlinux and all modules unnecessarily contain the symbols __start_alloc_tags and __stop_alloc_tags, which define an empty range. In the case of modules, the presence of these symbols also forces the linker to create an empty .codetag.alloc_tags section. Update codetag.lds.h to make the data conditional on CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING.

alloc_tag: remove empty module tag section
The empty MOD_CODETAG_SECTIONS() macro added an incomplete .data section in module linker script, which caused symbol lookup tools like gdb to misinterpret symbol addresses e.g., __ib_process_cq incorrectly mapping to unrelated functions like below. (gdb) disas __ib_process_cq Dump of assembler code for function trace_event_fields_cq_schedule: Removing the empty section restores proper symbol resolution and layout, ensuring .data placement behaves as expected.

vdso/vsyscall: Split up __arch_update_vsyscall() into __arch_update_vdso_clock()
The upcoming auxiliary clocks need this hook, too. To separate the architecture hooks from the timekeeper internals, refactor the hook to only operate on a single vDSO clock. While at it, use a more robust #define for the hook override.

irqchip/gic-v5: Add GICv5 IWB support
The GICv5 architecture implements the Interrupt Wire Bridge (IWB) in order to support wired interrupts that cannot be connected directly to an IRS and instead uses the ITS to translate a wire event into an IRQ signal. Add the wired-to-MSI IWB driver to manage IWB wired interrupts. An IWB is connected to an ITS and it has its own deviceID for all interrupt wires that it manages; the IWB input wire number must be exposed to the ITS as an eventID with a 1:1 mapping. This eventID is not programmable and therefore requires a new msi_alloc_info_t flag to make sure the ITS driver does not allocate an eventid for the wire but rather it uses the msi_alloc_info_t.hwirq number to gather the ITS eventID.

alpha: regularize the situation with asm/param.h
The only reason why alpha can't do what sparc et.al. are doing is that include/asm-generic/param.h relies upon the value of HZ set for userland header in uapi/asm/param.h being 100. We need that value to define USER_HZ and we need that definition to outlive the redefinition of HZ kernel-side. And alpha needs it to be 1024, not 100 like everybody else. So let's add __USER_HZ to uapi/asm-generic/param.h, defaulting to 100 and used to define HZ. That way include/asm-generic/param.h can use that thing instead of open-coding it - it won't be affected by undefining and redefining HZ. That done, alpha asm/param.h can be removed and uapi/asm/param.h switched to defining __USER_HZ and EXEC_PAGESIZE and then including <asm-generic/param.h> - asm/param.h will resolve to uapi/asm/param.h, which pulls <asm-generic/param.h>, which will do the right thing both in the kernel and userland contexts.

btf: Allow mmap of vmlinux btf
User space needs access to kernel BTF for many modern features of BPF. Right now each process needs to read the BTF blob either in pieces or as a whole. Allow mmaping the sysfs file so that processes can directly access the memory allocated for it in the kernel. remap_pfn_range is used instead of vm_insert_page due to aarch64 compatibility issues.

mm: call ctor/dtor for kernel PTEs
Since [1], constructors/destructors are expected to be called for all page table pages, at all levels and for both user and kernel pgtables. There is however one glaring exception: kernel PTEs are managed via separate helpers (pte_alloc_kernel/pte_free_kernel), which do not call the [cd]tor, at least not in the generic implementation. The most obvious reason for this anomaly is that init_mm is special-cased not to use split page table locks. As a result calling ptlock_init() for PTEs associated with init_mm would be wasteful, potentially resulting in dynamic memory allocation. However, pgtable [cd]tors perform other actions - currently related to accounting/statistics, and potentially more functionally significant in the future. Now that pagetable_pte_ctor() is passed the associated mm, we can make it skip the call to ptlock_init() for init_mm; this allows us to call the ctor from pte_alloc_one_kernel() too. This is matched by a call to the pgtable destructor in pte_free_kernel(); no special-casing is needed on that path, as ptlock_free() is already called unconditionally. (ptlock_free() is a no-op unless a ptlock was allocated for the given PTP.) This patch ensures that all architectures that rely on <asm-generic/pgalloc.h> call the [cd]tor for kernel PTEs. pte_free_kernel() cannot be overridden so changing the generic implementation is sufficient. pte_alloc_one_kernel() can be overridden using __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_ALLOC_ONE_KERNEL, and a few architectures implement it by calling the page allocator directly. We amend those so that they call the generic __pte_alloc_one_kernel() instead, if possible, ensuring that the ctor is called. A few architectures do not use <asm-generic/pgalloc.h>; those will be taken care of separately.

mm: pass mm down to pagetable_{pte,pmd}_ctor
Patch series "Always call constructor for kernel page tables", v2.
There has been much confusion around exactly when page table
constructors/destructors (pagetable_*_[cd]tor) are supposed to be called.
They were initially introduced for user PTEs only (to support split page
table locks), then at the PMD level for the same purpose. Accounting was
added later on, starting at the PTE level and then moving to higher levels
(PMD, PUD). Finally, with my earlier series "Account page tables at all
levels" [1], the ctor/dtor is run for all levels, all the way to PGD.
I thought this was the end of the story, and it hopefully is for user
pgtables, but I was wrong for what concerns kernel pgtables. The current
situation there makes very little sense:
* At the PTE level, the ctor/dtor is not called (at least in the generic
implementation). Specific helpers are used for kernel pgtables at this
level (pte_{alloc,free}_kernel()) and those have never called the
ctor/dtor, most likely because they were initially irrelevant in the
kernel case.
* At all other levels, the ctor/dtor is normally called. This is
potentially wasteful at the PMD level (more on that later).
This series aims to ensure that the ctor/dtor is always called for kernel
pgtables, as it already is for user pgtables. Besides consistency, the
main motivation is to guarantee that ctor/dtor hooks are systematically
called; this makes it possible to insert hooks to protect page tables [2],
for instance. There is however an extra challenge: split locks are not
used for kernel pgtables, and it would therefore be wasteful to initialise
them (ptlock_init()).
It is worth clarifying exactly when split locks are used. They clearly
are for user pgtables, but as illustrated in commit

mm: pgtable: remove tlb_remove_page_ptdesc()
The tlb_remove_ptdesc()/tlb_remove_table() is specially designed for page table pages, and now all architectures have been converted to use it to remove page table pages. So let's remove tlb_remove_page_ptdesc(), it currently has no users and should not be used for page table pages.

mm: pgtable: make generic tlb_remove_table() use struct ptdesc
Patch series "remove tlb_remove_page_ptdesc()", v2. As suggested by Peter Zijlstra below [1], this series aims to remove tlb_remove_page_ptdesc(). : Fundamentally tlb_remove_page() is about removing *pages* as from a PTE, : there should not be a page-table anywhere near here *ever*. : : Yes, some architectures use tlb_remove_page() for page-tables too, but : that is more or less an implementation detail that can be fixed. After this series, all architectures use tlb_remove_table() or tlb_remove_ptdesc() to remove the page table pages. In the future, once all architectures using tlb_remove_table() have also converted to using struct ptdesc (eg. powerpc), it may be possible to use only tlb_remove_ptdesc(). [1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20250103111457.GC22934@noisy.programming.kicks-ass.net/ This patch (of 6): Now only arm will call tlb_remove_ptdesc()/tlb_remove_table() when CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_TABLE_FREE is disabled. In this case, the type of the table parameter is actually struct ptdesc * instead of struct page *. Since struct ptdesc still overlaps with struct page and has not been separated from it, forcing the table parameter to struct page * will not cause any problems at this time. But this is definitely incorrect and needs to be fixed. So just like the generic __tlb_remove_table(), let generic tlb_remove_table() use struct ptdesc by default when CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_TABLE_FREE is disabled.

- The 6 patch series "Enable strict percpu address space checks" from
Uros Bizjak uses x86 named address space qualifiers to provide compile-time checking of percpu area accesses. This has caused a small amount of fallout - two or three issues were reported. In all cases the calling code was founf to be incorrect. - The 4 patch series "Some cleanup for memcg" from Chen Ridong implements some relatively monir cleanups for the memcontrol code. - The 17 patch series "mm: fixes for device-exclusive entries (hmm)" from David Hildenbrand fixes a boatload of issues which David found then using device-exclusive PTE entries when THP is enabled. More work is needed, but this makes thins better - our own HMM selftests now succeed. - The 2 patch series "mm: zswap: remove z3fold and zbud" from Yosry Ahmed remove the z3fold and zbud implementations. They have been deprecated for half a year and nobody has complained. - The 5 patch series "mm: further simplify VMA merge operation" from Lorenzo Stoakes implements numerous simplifications in this area. No runtime effects are anticipated. - The 4 patch series "mm/madvise: remove redundant mmap_lock operations from process_madvise()" from SeongJae Park rationalizes the locking in the madvise() implementation. Performance gains of 20-25% were observed in one MADV_DONTNEED microbenchmark. - The 12 patch series "Tiny cleanup and improvements about SWAP code" from Baoquan He contains a number of touchups to issues which Baoquan noticed when working on the swap code. - The 2 patch series "mm: kmemleak: Usability improvements" from Catalin Marinas implements a couple of improvements to the kmemleak user-visible output. - The 2 patch series "mm/damon/paddr: fix large folios access and schemes handling" from Usama Arif provides a couple of fixes for DAMON's handling of large folios. - The 3 patch series "mm/damon/core: fix wrong and/or useless damos_walk() behaviors" from SeongJae Park fixes a few issues with the accuracy of kdamond's walking of DAMON regions. - The 3 patch series "expose mapping wrprotect, fix fb_defio use" from Lorenzo Stoakes changes the interaction between framebuffer deferred-io and core MM. No functional changes are anticipated - this is preparatory work for the future removal of page structure fields. - The 4 patch series "mm/damon: add support for hugepage_size DAMOS filter" from Usama Arif adds a DAMOS filter which permits the filtering by huge page sizes. - The 4 patch series "mm: permit guard regions for file-backed/shmem mappings" from Lorenzo Stoakes extends the guard region feature from its present "anon mappings only" state. The feature now covers shmem and file-backed mappings. - The 4 patch series "mm: batched unmap lazyfree large folios during reclamation" from Barry Song cleans up and speeds up the unmapping for pte-mapped large folios. - The 18 patch series "reimplement per-vma lock as a refcount" from Suren Baghdasaryan puts the vm_lock back into the vma.

Pull bpf relisient spinlock support from Alexei Starovoitov:
"This patch set introduces Resilient Queued Spin Lock (or rqspinlock
with res_spin_lock() and res_spin_unlock() APIs).
This is a qspinlock variant which recovers the kernel from a stalled
state when the lock acquisition path cannot make forward progress.
This can occur when a lock acquisition attempt enters a deadlock
situation (e.g. AA, or ABBA), or more generally, when the owner of the
lock (which we’re trying to acquire) isn’t making forward progress.
Deadlock detection is the main mechanism used to provide instant
recovery, with the timeout mechanism acting as a final line of
defense. Detection is triggered immediately when beginning the waiting
loop of a lock slow path.
Additionally, BPF programs attached to different parts of the kernel
can introduce new control flow into the kernel, which increases the
likelihood of deadlocks in code not written to handle reentrancy.
There have been multiple syzbot reports surfacing deadlocks in
internal kernel code due to the diverse ways in which BPF programs can
be attached to different parts of the kernel. By switching the BPF
subsystem’s lock usage to rqspinlock, all of these issues are
mitigated at runtime.
This spin lock implementation allows BPF maps to become safer and
remove mechanisms that have fallen short in assuring safety when
nesting programs in arbitrary ways in the same context or across
different contexts.
We run benchmarks that stress locking scalability and perform
comparison against the baseline (qspinlock). For the rqspinlock case,
we replace the default qspinlock with it in the kernel, such that all
spin locks in the kernel use the rqspinlock slow path. As such,
benchmarks that stress kernel spin locks end up exercising rqspinlock.

asm-generic changes for 6.15
This is mainly set of cleanups of asm-generic/io.h, resolving problems with inconsistent semantics of ioread64/iowrite64 that were causing runtime and build issues. The "GENERIC_IOMAP" version that switches between inb()/outb() and readb()/writeb() style accessors is now only used on architectures that have PC-style ISA devices that are not memory mapped (x86, uml, m68k-q40 and powerpc-powernv), while alpha and parisc use a more complicated variant and everything else just maps the ioread interfaces to plan MMIO (readb/writeb etc). In addition there are two small changes from Raag Jadav to simplify the asm-generic/io.h indirect inclusions and from Jann Horn to fix a corner case with read_word_at_a_time. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAABCgAdFiEEiK/NIGsWEZVxh/FrYKtH/8kJUicFAmfkb2MACgkQYKtH/8kJ UicZMg//Va7h0cZBAM64yvHH9SJ1JrM2u4oZNspvcWuncpqaDp3/lFAUBf1m0m46 PhZ8mJmVm/qD7DH8uJRA4kI9t0hjeI1nwb2Pgo60omEpZKY2nIJMsJMIluQYEdAt nthz9RUvNOu0WSR/zMVmLfEAtncNewJzyUrlTnoQnIM9S+WQ8e5f1TxZbaz754Cb XYOpfZNj4nyP3wXtMedee3eZiKKxs/OcZBLoGyKnrBIkUbHCucXsAL962SoI3AXr pMjAIVNC1588fhOc2fA9Jl3K73j8Tj7/34UM+ztd5wxI1lwepxq4EDOCyJrhF5Oh z7oZ4laGoIc4i1aSrUWFK10TrcSBvC9D3zvUjYL8ryYw3HrpB3VppcObpCBtpWZS 97LGSlwq8UmkQOXt8xFzffOEDSh97ojxJAvUUUtuQtnS7PbkmyZ/OCnddBb0F7pa Bg68mzzZHm8/WUCMXwKxh+GA+qVZsMsPaPaexS/aG/TuV7+Mnj93GY1GSkj3Qzaw T9eUuGnFRCvSHU/WJ/Lrl4X1dFdWgHAbSOMNZBVfRFgSUt1ypChV1Sqt2jEfe6Uv dEeD84vZ0uhTsLoFVv/V4xY0osGKL+kAAtEwszLPfmP43kH+jC7cD3+CSTHW0IgV EHuFcjv2CraTF3wvX8Mph6ivoh1EwW/ycFm2mw8onloUUZaoMHM= =6j9g -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'asm-generic-6.15-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/asm-generic Pull asm-generic updates from Arnd Bergmann: "This is mainly set of cleanups of asm-generic/io.h, resolving problems with inconsistent semantics of ioread64/iowrite64 that were causing runtime and build issues.

Merge patch series "riscv: Relocatable NOMMU kernels"
Samuel Holland <samuel.holland@sifive.com> says: Currently, RISC-V NOMMU kernels are linked at CONFIG_PAGE_OFFSET, and since they are not relocatable, must be loaded at this address as well. CONFIG_PAGE_OFFSET is not a user-visible Kconfig option, so its value is not obvious, and users must patch the kernel source if they want to load it at a different address. Make NOMMU kernels more portable by making them relocatable by default. This allows a single kernel binary to work when loaded at any address. * b4-shazam-merge: riscv: Remove CONFIG_PAGE_OFFSET riscv: Support CONFIG_RELOCATABLE on riscv32 asm-generic: Always define Elf_Rel and Elf_Rela riscv: Support CONFIG_RELOCATABLE on NOMMU riscv: Allow NOMMU kernels to access all of RAM riscv: Remove duplicate CONFIG_PAGE_OFFSET definition Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20241026171441.3047904-1-samuel.holland@sifive.com Signed-off-by: Palmer Dabbelt <palmer@rivosinc.com> |

rwonce: fix crash by removing READ_ONCE() for unaligned read
When arm64 is built with LTO, it upgrades READ_ONCE() to ldar / ldapr
(load-acquire) to avoid issues that can be caused by the compiler
optimizing away implicit address dependencies.
Unlike plain loads, these load-acquire instructions actually require an
aligned address.
For now, fix it by removing the READ_ONCE() that the buggy commit
introduced.

Updates for the VDSO infrastructure:
- Consolidate the VDSO storage
The VDSO data storage and data layout has been largely architecture
specific for historical reasons. That increases the maintenance effort
and causes inconsistencies over and over.
There is no real technical reason for architecture specific layouts and
implementations. The architecture specific details can easily be
integrated into a generic layout, which also reduces the amount of
duplicated code for managing the mappings.
Convert all architectures over to a unified layout and common mapping
infrastructure. This splits the VDSO data layout into subsystem
specific blocks, timekeeping, random and architecture parts, which
provides a better structure and allows to improve and update the
functionalities without conflict and interaction.
- Rework the timekeeping data storage
The current implementation is designed for exposing system timekeeping
accessors, which was good enough at the time when it was designed.
PTP and Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) change that as there are
requirements to expose independent PTP clocks, which are not related to
system timekeeping.
Replace the monolithic data storage by a structured layout, which
allows to add support for independent PTP clocks on top while reusing
both the data structures and the time accessor implementations.

rwonce: handle KCSAN like KASAN in read_word_at_a_time()
read_word_at_a_time() is allowed to read out of bounds by straddling the
end of an allocation (and the caller is expected to then mask off
out-of-bounds data). This works as long as the caller guarantees that the
access won't hit a pagefault (either by ensuring that addr is aligned or by
explicitly checking where the next page boundary is).
Such out-of-bounds data could include things like KASAN redzones, adjacent
allocations that are concurrently written to, or simply an adjacent struct
field that is concurrently updated. KCSAN should ignore racy reads of OOB
data that is not actually used, just like KASAN, so (similar to the code
above) change read_word_at_a_time() to use __no_sanitize_or_inline instead
of __no_kasan_or_inline, and explicitly inform KCSAN that we're reading
the first byte.
We do have an instrument_read() helper that calls into both KASAN and
KCSAN, but I'm instead open-coding that here to avoid having to pull the
entire instrumented.h header into rwonce.h.
Also, since this read can be racy by design, we should technically do
READ_ONCE(), so add that.

It has been a reasonably busy cycle for docs...
- Significant changes throughout the tree to bring Python code up to
current standards and raise the minimum Python required to 3.9. Much of
this is preparatory to replacing the ancient Perl scripts/kernel-doc
horror with a slightly less horrifying Python implementation, expected
for 6.16.
- Update the minimum Sphinx required to 3.4.3, allowing us to remove a
bunch of older compatibility code.
- Rework and improve the generation of the ABI documentation.
(All of the above done by Mauro)
- Lots of translation updates. Alex Shi and Yanteng Si are taking on
responsibility for the Chinese translations going forward; that work will
still get to you via docs-next
- Try to standardize the format for indicating a developer's affiliation in
commit tags.
- Clarify the TAB's role in CoC enforcement actions.
- Try to spell out the rules for when a commit tag can name another
developer without their explicit permission.
Plus lots of other typo fixes and updates.

x86: hyperv: Add mshv_handler() irq handler and setup function
Add mshv_handler() to process messages related to managing guest partitions such as intercepts, doorbells, and scheduling messages. In a (non-nested) root partition, the same interrupt vector is shared between the vmbus and mshv_root drivers. Introduce a stub for mshv_handler() and call it in sysvec_hyperv_callback alongside vmbus_handler(). Even though both handlers will be called for every Hyper-V interrupt, the messages for each driver are delivered to different offsets within the SYNIC message page, so they won't step on each other.
