* Concurrency-managed per-cpu work items that hog CPUs and delay the
execution of other work items are now automatically detected and excluded
from concurrency management. Reporting on such work items can also be
enabled through a config option.
* Added tools/workqueue/wq_monitor.py which improves visibility into
workqueue usages and behaviors.
* Includes Arnd's minimal fix for gcc-13 enum warning on 32bit compiles.
This conflicts with afa4bb778e48 ("workqueue: clean up WORK_* constant
types, clarify masking") in master. Can be resolved by picking the master
version.

Merge tag 'wq-for-6.5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq
Pull workqueue updates from Tejun Heo:
- Concurrency-managed per-cpu work items that hog CPUs and delay the
execution of other work items are now automatically detected and
excluded from concurrency management. Reporting on such work items
can also be enabled through a config option.
- Added tools/workqueue/wq_monitor.py which improves visibility into
workqueue usages and behaviors.
- Arnd's minimal fix for gcc-13 enum warning on 32bit compiles,
superseded by commit afa4bb778e48 in mainline.
* tag 'wq-for-6.5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq:
workqueue: Disable per-cpu CPU hog detection when wq_cpu_intensive_thresh_us is 0
workqueue: Fix WARN_ON_ONCE() triggers in worker_enter_idle()
workqueue: fix enum type for gcc-13
workqueue: Track and monitor per-workqueue CPU time usage
workqueue: Report work funcs that trigger automatic CPU_INTENSIVE mechanism
workqueue: Automatically mark CPU-hogging work items CPU_INTENSIVE
workqueue: Improve locking rule description for worker fields
workqueue: Move worker_set/clr_flags() upwards
workqueue: Re-order struct worker fields
workqueue: Add pwq->stats[] and a monitoring script
Further upgrade queue_work_on() comment
- Introduce cmpxchg128() -- aka. the demise of cmpxchg_double().
The cmpxchg128() family of functions is basically & functionally
the same as cmpxchg_double(), but with a saner interface: instead
of a 6-parameter horror that forced u128 - u64/u64-halves layout
details on the interface and exposed users to complexity,
fragility & bugs, use a natural 3-parameter interface with u128 types.
- Restructure the generated atomic headers, and add
kerneldoc comments for all of the generic atomic{,64,_long}_t
operations. Generated definitions are much cleaner now,
and come with documentation.
- Implement lock_set_cmp_fn() on lockdep, for defining an ordering
when taking multiple locks of the same type. This gets rid of
one use of lockdep_set_novalidate_class() in the bcache code.
- Fix raw_cpu_generic_try_cmpxchg() bug due to an unintended
variable shadowing generating garbage code on Clang on certain
ARM builds.

Merge tag 'for-6.5/splice-2023-06-23' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux
Pull splice updates from Jens Axboe:
"This kills off ITER_PIPE to avoid a race between truncate,
iov_iter_revert() on the pipe and an as-yet incomplete DMA to a bio
with unpinned/unref'ed pages from an O_DIRECT splice read. This causes
memory corruption.
Instead, we either use (a) filemap_splice_read(), which invokes the
buffered file reading code and splices from the pagecache into the
pipe; (b) copy_splice_read(), which bulk-allocates a buffer, reads
into it and then pushes the filled pages into the pipe; or (c) handle
it in filesystem-specific code.
Summary:
- Rename direct_splice_read() to copy_splice_read()
- Simplify the calculations for the number of pages to be reclaimed
in copy_splice_read()
- Turn do_splice_to() into a helper, vfs_splice_read(), so that it
can be used by overlayfs and coda to perform the checks on the
lower fs
- Make vfs_splice_read() jump to copy_splice_read() to handle
direct-I/O and DAX
- Provide shmem with its own splice_read to handle non-existent pages
in the pagecache. We don't want a ->read_folio() as we don't want
to populate holes, but filemap_get_pages() requires it
- Provide overlayfs with its own splice_read to call down to a lower
layer as overlayfs doesn't provide ->read_folio()
- Provide coda with its own splice_read to call down to a lower layer
as coda doesn't provide ->read_folio()
- Direct ->splice_read to copy_splice_read() in tty, procfs, kernfs
and random files as they just copy to the output buffer and don't
splice pages
- Provide wrappers for afs, ceph, ecryptfs, ext4, f2fs, nfs, ntfs3,
ocfs2, orangefs, xfs and zonefs to do locking and/or revalidation
- Make cifs use filemap_splice_read()
- Replace pointers to generic_file_splice_read() with pointers to
filemap_splice_read() as DIO and DAX are handled in the caller;
filesystems can still provide their own alternate ->splice_read()
op
- Remove generic_file_splice_read()
- Remove ITER_PIPE and its paraphernalia as generic_file_splice_read
was the only user"

It turns out that alloc_pages_bulk_array() does not treat the page_array
parameter as an output parameter, but rather reads the array and skips any
entries that have already been allocated.
This is somewhat unexpected and breaks this test, as we allocate the pages
array uninitialised on the assumption it will be overwritten.
As a result, the test was referencing uninitialised data and causing the
PFN to not be valid and thus a WARN_ON() followed by a null pointer deref
and panic.
In addition, this is an array of pointers not of struct page objects, so we
need only allocate an array with elements of pointer size.
We solve both problems by simply using kcalloc() and referencing
sizeof(struct page *) rather than sizeof(struct page).

The xarray.c file contains the only call to radix_tree_node_rcu_free(),
and it comes with its own extern declaration for it. This means the
function definition causes a missing-prototype warning:
lib/radix-tree.c:288:6: error: no previous prototype for 'radix_tree_node_rcu_free' [-Werror=missing-prototypes]
Instead, move the declaration for this function to a new header that can
be included by both, and do the same for the radix_tree_node_cachep
variable that has the same underlying problem but does not cause a warning
with gcc.

KUnit aborts the current thread when an assertion fails. Currently, this
is done conditionally as part of the kunit_do_failed_assertion()
function, but this hides the kunit_abort() call from the compiler
(particularly if it's in another module). This, in turn, can lead to
both suboptimal code generation (the compiler can't know if
kunit_do_failed_assertion() will return), and to static analysis tools
like smatch giving false positives.
Moving the kunit_abort() call into the macro should give the compiler
and tools a better chance at understanding what's going on. Doing so
requires exporting kunit_abort(), though it's recommended to continue to
use assertions in lieu of aborting directly.
In addition, kunit_abort() and kunit_do_failed_assertion() are renamed
to make it clear they they're intended for internal KUnit use, to:
__kunit_do_failed_assertion() and __kunit_abort()

Dan Carpenter spotted a race condition in a couple of situations like
these in the test_firmware driver:
static int test_dev_config_update_u8(const char *buf, size_t size, u8 *cfg)
{
u8 val;
int ret;
ret = kstrtou8(buf, 10, &val);
if (ret)
return ret;
mutex_lock(&test_fw_mutex);
*(u8 *)cfg = val;
mutex_unlock(&test_fw_mutex);
/* Always return full write size even if we didn't consume all */
return size;
}
static ssize_t config_num_requests_store(struct device *dev,
struct device_attribute *attr,
const char *buf, size_t count)
{
int rc;
mutex_lock(&test_fw_mutex);
if (test_fw_config->reqs) {
pr_err("Must call release_all_firmware prior to changing config\n");
rc = -EINVAL;
mutex_unlock(&test_fw_mutex);
goto out;
}
mutex_unlock(&test_fw_mutex);
rc = test_dev_config_update_u8(buf, count,
&test_fw_config->num_requests);
out:
return rc;
}
static ssize_t config_read_fw_idx_store(struct device *dev,
struct device_attribute *attr,
const char *buf, size_t count)
{
return test_dev_config_update_u8(buf, count,
&test_fw_config->read_fw_idx);
}
The function test_dev_config_update_u8() is called from both the locked
and the unlocked context, function config_num_requests_store() and
config_read_fw_idx_store() which can both be called asynchronously as
they are driver's methods, while test_dev_config_update_u8() and siblings
change their argument pointed to by u8 *cfg or similar pointer.
To avoid deadlock on test_fw_mutex, the lock is dropped before calling
test_dev_config_update_u8() and re-acquired within test_dev_config_update_u8()
itself, but alas this creates a race condition.
Having two locks wouldn't assure a race-proof mutual exclusion.
This situation is best avoided by the introduction of a new, unlocked
function __test_dev_config_update_u8() which can be called from the locked
context and reducing test_dev_config_update_u8() to:
static int test_dev_config_update_u8(const char *buf, size_t size, u8 *cfg)
{
int ret;
mutex_lock(&test_fw_mutex);
ret = __test_dev_config_update_u8(buf, size, cfg);
mutex_unlock(&test_fw_mutex);
return ret;
}
doing the locking and calling the unlocked primitive, which enables both
locked and unlocked versions without duplication of code.
The similar approach was applied to all functions called from the locked
and the unlocked context, which safely mitigates both deadlocks and race
conditions in the driver.
__test_dev_config_update_bool(), __test_dev_config_update_u8() and
__test_dev_config_update_size_t() unlocked versions of the functions
were introduced to be called from the locked contexts as a workaround
without releasing the main driver's lock and thereof causing a race
condition.
The test_dev_config_update_bool(), test_dev_config_update_u8() and
test_dev_config_update_size_t() locked versions of the functions
are being called from driver methods without the unnecessary multiplying
of the locking and unlocking code for each method, and complicating
the code with saving of the return value across lock.

There is no need use opaque test_or_suite pointer and is_test flag
as we don't use anything from the suite struct. Always expect test
pointer and use NULL as indication that provided results are from
the suite so we can treat them differently.
Since results could be from nested tests, like parameterized tests,
add explicit level parameter to properly indent output messages and
thus allow to reuse this function from other places.

There is no such thing as a free lunch, however, and the special case
for len == 40 does add overhead to the len != 40 cases. This seems to
amount to be ~5% throughput and slightly less in terms of latency.
Testing:
Part of this change is a new kunit test. The tests check all
alignment X length pairs in [0, 64) X [0, 512).
There are three cases.
1) Precomputed random inputs/seed. The expected results where
generated use the generic implementation (which is assumed to be
non-buggy).
2) An input of all 1s. The goal of this test is to catch any case
a carry is missing.
3) An input that never carries. The goal of this test si to catch
any case of incorrectly carrying.
More exhaustive tests that test all alignment X length pairs in
[0, 8192) X [0, 8192] on random data are also available here:

The kunit_add_action() function is much simpler and cleaner to use that
the full KUnit resource API for simple things like the
kunit_kmalloc_array() functionality.
Replacing it allows us to get rid of a number of helper functions, and
leaves us with no uses of kunit_alloc_resource(), which has some
usability problems and is going to have its behaviour modified in an
upcoming patch.
Note that we need to use kunit_defer_trigger_all() to implement
kunit_kfree().

Many uses of the KUnit resource system are intended to simply defer
calling a function until the test exits (be it due to success or
failure). The existing kunit_alloc_resource() function is often used for
this, but was awkward to use (requiring passing NULL init functions, etc),
and returned a resource without incrementing its reference count, which
-- while okay for this use-case -- could cause problems in others.
Instead, introduce a simple kunit_add_action() API: a simple function
(returning nothing, accepting a single void* argument) can be scheduled
to be called when the test exits. Deferred actions are called in the
opposite order to that which they were registered.
This mimics the devres API, devm_add_action(), and also provides
kunit_remove_action(), to cancel a deferred action, and
kunit_release_action() to trigger one early.
This is implemented as a resource under the hood, so the ordering
between resource cleanup and deferred functions is maintained.

syzbot is reporting a lockdep warning in fill_pool() because the allocation
from debugobjects is using GFP_ATOMIC, which is (__GFP_HIGH | __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM)
and therefore tries to wake up kswapd, which acquires kswapd_wait::lock.
Since fill_pool() might be called with arbitrary locks held, fill_pool()
should not assume that acquiring kswapd_wait::lock is safe.
Use __GFP_HIGH instead and remove __GFP_NORETRY as it is pointless for
!__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM allocation.

maple_tree: make maple state reusable after mas_empty_area()
Workqueue now automatically marks per-cpu work items that hog CPU for too
long as CPU_INTENSIVE, which excludes them from concurrency management and
prevents stalling other concurrency-managed work items. If a work function
keeps running over the thershold, it likely needs to be switched to use an
unbound workqueue.
This patch adds a debug mechanism which tracks the work functions which
trigger the automatic CPU_INTENSIVE mechanism and report them using
pr_warn() with exponential backoff.
v3: Documentation update.
v2: Drop bouncing to kthread_worker for printing messages. It was to avoid
introducing circular locking dependency through printk but not effective
as it still had pool lock -> wci_lock -> printk -> pool lock loop. Let's
just print directly using printk_deferred().

Make mas->min and mas->max point to a node range instead of a leaf entry
range. This allows mas to still be usable after mas_empty_area() returns.
Users would get unexpected results from other operations on the maple
state after calling the affected function.
For example, x86 MAP_32BIT mmap() acts as if there is no suitable gap when
there should be one.

Add an example .exit and .suite_exit function to the KUnit example
suite. Given exit functions are a bit more subtle than init functions
(due to running in a different kthread, and running even after tests or
test init functions fail), providing an easy place to experiment with
them is useful.

KUnit tests run in a kthread, with the current->kunit_test pointer set
to the test's context. This allows the kunit_get_current_test() and
kunit_fail_current_test() macros to work. Normally, this pointer is
still valid during test shutdown (i.e., the suite->exit function, and
any resource cleanup). However, if the test has exited early (e.g., due
to a failed assertion), the cleanup is done in the parent KUnit thread,
which does not have an active context.
Instead, in the event test terminates early, run the test exit and
cleanup from a new 'cleanup' kthread, which sets current->kunit_test,
and better isolates the rest of KUnit from issues which arise in test
cleanup.
If a test cleanup function itself aborts (e.g., due to an assertion
failing), there will be no further attempts to clean up: an error will
be logged and the test failed. For example:
# example_simple_test: test aborted during cleanup. continuing without cleaning up
This should also make it easier to get access to the KUnit context,
particularly from within resource cleanup functions, which may, for
example, need access to data in test->priv.

The recent fix to ensure atomicity of lookup and allocation inadvertently
broke the pool refill mechanism, so that debugobject OOMs now in certain
situations. The reason is that the functions which got updated no longer
invoke debug_objecs_init(), which is now the only place to care about
refilling the tracking object pool.
Restore the original behaviour by adding explicit refill opportunities to
those places.

Generally, the '->write_iter' of file ops will use copy_page_from_iter()
and copy_page_from_iter_atomic(), change memcpy() to copy_mc_to_kernel()
in both of them to handle #MC during source read, which stop coredump
processing and kill the task instead of kernel panic, but the source
address may not always a user address, so introduce a new copy_mc flag in
struct iov_iter{} to indicate that the iter could do a safe memory copy,
also introduce the helpers to set/cleck the flag, for now, it's only used
in coredump's dump_user_range(), but it could expand to any other
scenarios to fix the similar issue.

There is an explicit wait-type violation in debug_object_fill_pool()
for PREEMPT_RT=n kernels which allows them to more easily fill the
object pool and reduce the chance of allocation failures.
Lockdep's wait-type checks are designed to check the PREEMPT_RT
locking rules even for PREEMPT_RT=n kernels and object to this, so
create a lockdep annotation to allow this to stand.
Specifically, create a 'lock' type that overrides the inner wait-type
while it is held -- allowing one to temporarily raise it, such that
the violation is hidden.

The recent fix to ensure atomicity of lookup and allocation inadvertently
broke the pool refill mechanism.
Prior to that change debug_objects_activate() and debug_objecs_assert_init()
invoked debug_objecs_init() to set up the tracking object for statically
initialized objects. That's not longer the case and debug_objecs_init() is
now the only place which does pool refills.
Depending on the number of statically initialized objects this can be
enough to actually deplete the pool, which was observed by Ido via a
debugobjects OOM warning.
Restore the old behaviour by adding explicit refill opportunities to
debug_objects_activate() and debug_objecs_assert_init().

The summary of the changes for this pull requests is:
* Song Liu's new struct module_memory replacement
* Nick Alcock's MODULE_LICENSE() removal for non-modules
* My cleanups and enhancements to reduce the areas where we vmalloc
module memory for duplicates, and the respective debug code which
proves the remaining vmalloc pressure comes from userspace.
Most of the changes have been in linux-next for quite some time except
the minor fixes I made to check if a module was already loaded
prior to allocating the final module memory with vmalloc and the
respective debug code it introduces to help clarify the issue. Although
the functional change is small it is rather safe as it can only *help*
reduce vmalloc space for duplicates and is confirmed to fix a bootup
issue with over 400 CPUs with KASAN enabled. I don't expect stable
kernels to pick up that fix as the cleanups would have also had to have
been picked up. Folks on larger CPU systems with modules will want to
just upgrade if vmalloc space has been an issue on bootup.
Given the size of this request, here's some more elaborate details
on this pull request.
The functional change change in this pull request is the very first
patch from Song Liu which replaces the struct module_layout with a new
struct module memory. The old data structure tried to put together all
types of supported module memory types in one data structure, the new
one abstracts the differences in memory types in a module to allow each
one to provide their own set of details. This paves the way in the
future so we can deal with them in a cleaner way. If you look at changes
they also provide a nice cleanup of how we handle these different memory
areas in a module. This change has been in linux-next since before the
merge window opened for v6.3 so to provide more than a full kernel cycle
of testing. It's a good thing as quite a bit of fixes have been found
for it.
Jason Baron then made dynamic debug a first class citizen module user by
using module notifier callbacks to allocate / remove module specific
dynamic debug information.
Nick Alcock has done quite a bit of work cross-tree to remove module
license tags from things which cannot possibly be module at my request
so to:
a) help him with his longer term tooling goals which require a
deterministic evaluation if a piece a symbol code could ever be
part of a module or not. But quite recently it is has been made
clear that tooling is not the only one that would benefit.
Disambiguating symbols also helps efforts such as live patching,
kprobes and BPF, but for other reasons and R&D on this area
is active with no clear solution in sight.
b) help us inch closer to the now generally accepted long term goal
of automating all the MODULE_LICENSE() tags from SPDX license tags
In so far as a) is concerned, although module license tags are a no-op
for non-modules, tools which would want create a mapping of possible
modules can only rely on the module license tag after the commit
8b41fc4454e ("kbuild: create modules.builtin without Makefile.modbuiltin
or tristate.conf"). Nick has been working on this *for years* and
AFAICT I was the only one to suggest two alternatives to this approach
for tooling. The complexity in one of my suggested approaches lies in
that we'd need a possible-obj-m and a could-be-module which would check
if the object being built is part of any kconfig build which could ever
lead to it being part of a module, and if so define a new define
-DPOSSIBLE_MODULE [0]. A more obvious yet theoretical approach I've
suggested would be to have a tristate in kconfig imply the same new
-DPOSSIBLE_MODULE as well but that means getting kconfig symbol names
mapping to modules always, and I don't think that's the case today. I am
not aware of Nick or anyone exploring either of these options. Quite
recently Josh Poimboeuf has pointed out that live patching, kprobes and
BPF would benefit from resolving some part of the disambiguation as
well but for other reasons. The function granularity KASLR (fgkaslr)
patches were mentioned but Joe Lawrence has clarified this effort has
been dropped with no clear solution in sight [1].
In the meantime removing module license tags from code which could never
be modules is welcomed for both objectives mentioned above. Some
developers have also welcomed these changes as it has helped clarify
when a module was never possible and they forgot to clean this up,
and so you'll see quite a bit of Nick's patches in other pull
requests for this merge window. I just picked up the stragglers after
rc3. LWN has good coverage on the motivation behind this work [2] and
the typical cross-tree issues he ran into along the way. The only
concrete blocker issue he ran into was that we should not remove the
MODULE_LICENSE() tags from files which have no SPDX tags yet, even if
they can never be modules. Nick ended up giving up on his efforts due
to having to do this vetting and backlash he ran into from folks who
really did *not understand* the core of the issue nor were providing
any alternative / guidance. I've gone through his changes and dropped
the patches which dropped the module license tags where an SPDX
license tag was missing, it only consisted of 11 drivers. To see
if a pull request deals with a file which lacks SPDX tags you
can just use:
./scripts/spdxcheck.py -f \
$(git diff --name-only commid-id | xargs echo)
You'll see a core module file in this pull request for the above,
but that's not related to his changes. WE just need to add the SPDX
license tag for the kernel/module/kmod.c file in the future but
it demonstrates the effectiveness of the script.
Most of Nick's changes were spread out through different trees,
and I just picked up the slack after rc3 for the last kernel was out.
Those changes have been in linux-next for over two weeks.
The cleanups, debug code I added and final fix I added for modules
were motivated by David Hildenbrand's report of boot failing on
a systems with over 400 CPUs when KASAN was enabled due to running
out of virtual memory space. Although the functional change only
consists of 3 lines in the patch "module: avoid allocation if module is
already present and ready", proving that this was the best we can
do on the modules side took quite a bit of effort and new debug code.
The initial cleanups I did on the modules side of things has been
in linux-next since around rc3 of the last kernel, the actual final
fix for and debug code however have only been in linux-next for about a
week or so but I think it is worth getting that code in for this merge
window as it does help fix / prove / evaluate the issues reported
with larger number of CPUs. Userspace is not yet fixed as it is taking
a bit of time for folks to understand the crux of the issue and find a
proper resolution. Worst come to worst, I have a kludge-of-concept [3]
of how to make kernel_read*() calls for modules unique / converge them,
but I'm currently inclined to just see if userspace can fix this
instead.

kprobes and BPF, but for other reasons and R&D on this area is
active with no clear solution in sight.
b) help us inch closer to the now generally accepted long term goal
of automating all the MODULE_LICENSE() tags from SPDX license tags
In so far as a) is concerned, although module license tags are a no-op
for non-modules, tools which would want create a mapping of possible
modules can only rely on the module license tag after the commit
8b41fc4454e ("kbuild: create modules.builtin without
Makefile.modbuiltin or tristate.conf").
Nick has been working on this *for years* and AFAICT I was the only
one to suggest two alternatives to this approach for tooling. The
complexity in one of my suggested approaches lies in that we'd need a
possible-obj-m and a could-be-module which would check if the object
being built is part of any kconfig build which could ever lead to it
being part of a module, and if so define a new define
-DPOSSIBLE_MODULE [0].
A more obvious yet theoretical approach I've suggested would be to
have a tristate in kconfig imply the same new -DPOSSIBLE_MODULE as
well but that means getting kconfig symbol names mapping to modules
always, and I don't think that's the case today. I am not aware of
Nick or anyone exploring either of these options. Quite recently Josh
Poimboeuf has pointed out that live patching, kprobes and BPF would
benefit from resolving some part of the disambiguation as well but for
other reasons. The function granularity KASLR (fgkaslr) patches were
mentioned but Joe Lawrence has clarified this effort has been dropped
with no clear solution in sight [1].
In the meantime removing module license tags from code which could
never be modules is welcomed for both objectives mentioned above. Some
developers have also welcomed these changes as it has helped clarify
when a module was never possible and they forgot to clean this up, and
so you'll see quite a bit of Nick's patches in other pull requests for
this merge window. I just picked up the stragglers after rc3. LWN has
good coverage on the motivation behind this work [2] and the typical
cross-tree issues he ran into along the way. The only concrete blocker
issue he ran into was that we should not remove the MODULE_LICENSE()
tags from files which have no SPDX tags yet, even if they can never be
modules. Nick ended up giving up on his efforts due to having to do
this vetting and backlash he ran into from folks who really did *not
understand* the core of the issue nor were providing any alternative /
guidance. I've gone through his changes and dropped the patches which
dropped the module license tags where an SPDX license tag was missing,
it only consisted of 11 drivers. To see if a pull request deals with a
file which lacks SPDX tags you can just use:
./scripts/spdxcheck.py -f \
$(git diff --name-only commid-id | xargs echo)
You'll see a core module file in this pull request for the above, but
that's not related to his changes. WE just need to add the SPDX
license tag for the kernel/module/kmod.c file in the future but it
demonstrates the effectiveness of the script.
Most of Nick's changes were spread out through different trees, and I
just picked up the slack after rc3 for the last kernel was out. Those
changes have been in linux-next for over two weeks.
The cleanups, debug code I added and final fix I added for modules
were motivated by David Hildenbrand's report of boot failing on a
systems with over 400 CPUs when KASAN was enabled due to running out
of virtual memory space. Although the functional change only consists
of 3 lines in the patch "module: avoid allocation if module is already
present and ready", proving that this was the best we can do on the
modules side took quite a bit of effort and new debug code.
The initial cleanups I did on the modules side of things has been in
linux-next since around rc3 of the last kernel, the actual final fix
for and debug code however have only been in linux-next for about a
week or so but I think it is worth getting that code in for this merge
window as it does help fix / prove / evaluate the issues reported with
larger number of CPUs. Userspace is not yet fixed as it is taking a
bit of time for folks to understand the crux of the issue and find a
proper resolution. Worst come to worst, I have a kludge-of-concept [3]
of how to make kernel_read*() calls for modules unique / converge
them, but I'm currently inclined to just see if userspace can fix this
instead"

Here is the large set of driver core changes for 6.4-rc1.
Once again, a busy development cycle, with lots of changes happening in
the driver core in the quest to be able to move "struct bus" and "struct
class" into read-only memory, a task now complete with these changes.
This will make the future rust interactions with the driver core more
"provably correct" as well as providing more obvious lifetime rules for
all busses and classes in the kernel.
The changes required for this did touch many individual classes and
busses as many callbacks were changed to take const * parameters
instead. All of these changes have been submitted to the various
subsystem maintainers, giving them plenty of time to review, and most of
them actually did so.
Other than those changes, included in here are a small set of other
things:
- kobject logging improvements
- cacheinfo improvements and updates
- obligatory fw_devlink updates and fixes
- documentation updates
- device property cleanups and const * changes
- firwmare loader dependency fixes.
All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
problems.
