The kernel_fpu structure has a quite large size of 520 bytes. In order to
reduce stack footprint introduce several kernel fpu structures with
different and also smaller sizes. This way every kernel fpu user must use
the correct variant. A compile time check verifies that the correct variant
is used.
There are several users which use only 16 instead of all 32 vector
registers. For those users the new kernel_fpu_16 structure with a size of
only 266 bytes can be used.

Move, rename, and merge the fpu and vx header files. This way fpu header
files have a consistent naming scheme (fpu*.h).
Also get rid of the fpu subdirectory and move header files to asm
directory, so that all fpu and vx header files can be found at the same
location.
Merge internal.h header file into other header files, since the internal
helpers are used at many locations. so those helper functions are really
not internal.

There are plenty of issues with the kernel documentation here:
- misspelled word "sequence"
- different style of returned value descriptions
- missed Return sections
- unaligned style of ASCII / NUL-terminated / etc
- wrong function references

This KUnit update for Linux 6.8-rc5 consists of one important fix
to unregister kunit_bus when KUnit module is unloaded. Not doing

Code sections in s390 specific kernel code which use floating point or
vector registers all come with a 520 byte stack variable to save already in
use registers, if required.
With INIT_STACK_ALL_PATTERN or INIT_STACK_ALL_ZERO enabled this variable
will always be initialized on function entry in addition to saving register
contents, which contradicts the intention (performance improvement) of such
code sections.
Therefore provide a DECLARE_KERNEL_FPU_ONSTACK() macro which provides
struct kernel_fpu variables with an __uninitialized attribute, and convert
all existing code to use this.
This way only this specific type of stack variable will not be initialized,

dump_stack() is called in panic(). If for some reason another CPU
is holding the printk_cpu_sync and is unable to release it, the
panic CPU will be unable to continue and print the stacktrace.
Since non-panic CPUs are not allowed to store new printk messages
anyway, there is no need to synchronize the stacktrace output in
a panic situation.
For the panic CPU, do not get the printk_cpu_sync because it is
not needed and avoids a potential deadlock scenario in panic().

With the introduction of the pool_rwlock (reader-writer lock), several
fast paths end up taking the pool_rwlock as readers. Furthermore,
stack_depot_put() unconditionally takes the pool_rwlock as a writer.
Despite allowing readers to make forward-progress concurrently,
reader-writer locks have inherent cache contention issues, which does not
scale well on systems with large CPU counts.
Rework the synchronization story of stack depot to again avoid taking any
locks in the fast paths. This is done by relying on RCU-protected list
traversal, and the NMI-safe subset of RCU to delay reuse of freed stack
records. See code comments for more details.
Along with the performance issues, this also fixes incorrect nesting of
rwlock within a raw_spinlock, given that stack depot should still be
usable from anywhere:
| [ BUG: Invalid wait context ]
| -----------------------------
| swapper/0/1 is trying to lock:
| ffffffff89869be8 (pool_rwlock){..--}-{3:3}, at: stack_depot_save_flags
| other info that might help us debug this:
| context-{5:5}
| 2 locks held by swapper/0/1:
| #0: ffffffff89632440 (rcu_read_lock){....}-{1:3}, at: __queue_work
| #1: ffff888100092018 (&pool->lock){-.-.}-{2:2}, at: __queue_work <-- raw_spin_lock
Stack depot usage stats are similar to the previous version after a KASAN
kernel boot:
$ cat /sys/kernel/debug/stackdepot/stats
pools: 838
allocations: 29865
frees: 6604
in_use: 23261
freelist_size: 1879
The number of pools is the same as previously. The freelist size is
minimally larger, but this may also be due to variance across system
boots. This shows that even though we do not eagerly wait for the next
RCU grace period (such as with synchronize_rcu() or call_rcu()) after
freeing a stack record - requiring depot_pop_free() to "poll" if an entry
may be used - new allocations are very likely to happen in later RCU grace
periods.

v2: do the other half of the iterators too, as suggested by Keith.
This further saves some text.
The modules are being moved from lib/livepatch to
tools/testing/selftests/livepatch/test_modules.
This code moving will allow writing more complex tests, like for example an
userspace C code that will call a livepatched kernel function.
The modules are now built as out-of-tree
modules, but being part of the kernel source means they will be maintained.
Another advantage of the code moving is to be able to easily change,
debug and rebuild the tests by running make on the selftests/livepatch
directory, which is not currently possible since the modules on
lib/livepatch are build and installed using the "modules" target.
The current approach also keeps the ability to execute the tests manually
by executing the scripts inside selftests/livepatch directory, as it's
currently supported. If the modules are modified, they needed to be
rebuilt before running the scripts though.
The modules are built before running the selftests when using the
kselftest invocations:
make kselftest TARGETS=livepatch
or
make -C tools/testing/selftests/livepatch run_tests
Having the modules being built as out-of-modules requires changing the
currently used 'modprobe' by 'insmod' and adapt the test scripts that
check for the kernel message buffer.
Now it is possible to only compile the modules by running:
make -C tools/testing/selftests/livepatch/
This way the test modules and other test program can be built in order
to be packaged if so desired.
As there aren't any modules being built on lib/livepatch, remove the
TEST_LIVEPATCH Kconfig and it's references.
Note: "make gen_tar" packages the pre-built binaries into the tarball.
It means that it will store the test modules pre-built for
the kernel running on the build host.
Note that these modules need not binary compatible with
the kernel built from the same sources. But the same
is true for other packaged selftest binaries.
The entire kernel sources are needed for rebuilding
the selftests on another system.

Commit 2810c1e99867 ("kunit: Fix wild-memory-access bug in
kunit_free_suite_set()") fixed a wild-memory-access bug that could have
happened during the loading phase of test suites built and executed as
loadable modules. However, it also introduced a problematic side effect
that causes test suites modules to crash when they attempt to register
fake devices.
When a module is loaded, it traverses the MODULE_STATE_UNFORMED and
MODULE_STATE_COMING states before reaching the normal operating state
MODULE_STATE_LIVE. Finally, when the module is removed, it moves to
MODULE_STATE_GOING before being released. However, if the loading
function load_module() fails between complete_formation() and
do_init_module(), the module goes directly from MODULE_STATE_COMING to
MODULE_STATE_GOING without passing through MODULE_STATE_LIVE.
This behavior was causing kunit_module_exit() to be called without
having first executed kunit_module_init(). Since kunit_module_exit() is
responsible for freeing the memory allocated by kunit_module_init()
through kunit_filter_suites(), this behavior was resulting in a
wild-memory-access bug.
Commit 2810c1e99867 ("kunit: Fix wild-memory-access bug in
kunit_free_suite_set()") fixed this issue by running the tests when the
module is still in MODULE_STATE_COMING. However, modules in that state
are not fully initialized, lacking sysfs kobjects. Therefore, if a test
module attempts to register a fake device, it will inevitably crash.
This patch proposes a different approach to fix the original
wild-memory-access bug while restoring the normal module execution flow
by making kunit_module_exit() able to detect if kunit_module_init() has
previously initialized the tests suite set. In this way, test modules
can once again register fake devices without crashing.
This behavior is achieved by checking whether mod->kunit_suites is a
virtual or direct mapping address. If it is a virtual address, then
kunit_module_init() has allocated the suite_set in kunit_filter_suites()
using kmalloc_array(). On the contrary, if mod->kunit_suites is still
pointing to the original address that was set when looking up the
.kunit_test_suites section of the module, then the loading phase has
failed and there's no memory to be freed.
v4:
- rebased on 6.8
- noted that kunit_filter_suites() must return a virtual address
v3:
- add a comment to clarify why the start address is checked
v2:
- add include <linux/mm.h>

This includes everything from part 2:
* Support for tuning for systems with fast misaligned accesses.
* Support for SBI-based suspend.
* Support for the new SBI debug console extension.
* The T-Head CMOs now use PA-based flushes.
* Support for enabling the V extension in kernel code.
* Optimized IP checksum routines.
* Various ftrace improvements.

The next significant update is unifying how CXL event records (things
like background scrub errors) are processed between so called
"firmware first" and native error record retrieval. The CXL driver
handler that processes the record retrieved from the device mailbox is
now the handler for that same record format coming from an EFI/ACPI

Fangrui noted that the comment around CONFIG_AS_HAS_NON_CONST_LEB128
could be made more accurate because explicit .sleb128 directives are not
emitted, only .uleb128 directives are. Rename the symbol to
CONFIG_AS_HAS_NON_CONST_ULEB128 as a result.
Further clarifications include replacing "symbol deltas" with the more
accurate "label differences", noting that this issue has been resolved
in newer binutils (2.41+), and it only occurs when a port uses RISC-V
style linker relaxation.

LLVM prior to 18.0.0 would generate incorrect debug info for DWARF5 due
to linker relaxation, which was worked around in clang by defaulting
RISC-V to DWARF4 [1]. Unfortunately, this workaround does not work for
the kernel because the DWARF version can be independently changed from
the default in Kconfig.
Do not allow DWARF5 to be selected for RISC-V when using linker
relaxation (ld.lld >= 15.0.0) and a version of LLVM that does not have
the fixes (the integrated assembler [2] and ld.lld [3] < 18.0.0)
necessary to generate the correct debug info.

pahole, which generates BTF, relies on elfutils to process DWARF debug
info. Because kernel modules are relocatable files, elfutils needs to
resolve relocations when processing the DWARF .debug sections.
Hexagon is not supported in binutils or elfutils, so elfutils is unable to
process relocations in kernel modules, causing pahole to crash during BTF
generation.
Do not allow CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF to be selected for Hexagon until it is
supported in elfutils, so that there are no more cryptic build failures
during BTF generation.

Core & protocols
----------------
- Analyze and reorganize core networking structs (socks, netdev,
netns, mibs) to optimize cacheline consumption and set up
build time warnings to safeguard against future header changes.
This improves TCP performances with many concurrent connections
up to 40%.
- Add page-pool netlink-based introspection, exposing the
memory usage and recycling stats. This helps indentify
bad PP users and possible leaks.
- Refine TCP/DCCP source port selection to no longer favor even
source port at connect() time when IP_LOCAL_PORT_RANGE is set.
This lowers the time taken by connect() for hosts having
many active connections to the same destination.
- Refactor the TCP bind conflict code, shrinking related socket
structs.
- Refactor TCP SYN-Cookie handling, as a preparation step to
allow arbitrary SYN-Cookie processing via eBPF.
- Tune optmem_max for 0-copy usage, increasing the default value
to 128KB and namespecifying it.
- Allow coalescing for cloned skbs coming from page pools, improving
RX performances with some common configurations.
- Reduce extension header parsing overhead at GRO time.
- Add bridge MDB bulk deletion support, allowing user-space to
request the deletion of matching entries.
- Reorder nftables struct members, to keep data accessed by the
datapath first.
- Introduce TC block ports tracking and use. This allows supporting
multicast-like behavior at the TC layer.
- Remove UAPI support for retired TC qdiscs (dsmark, CBQ and ATM) and
classifiers (RSVP and tcindex).
- More data-race annotations.
- Extend the diag interface to dump TCP bound-only sockets.
- Conditional notification of events for TC qdisc class and actions.
- Support for WPAN dynamic associations with nearby devices, to form
a sub-network using a specific PAN ID.
- Implement SMCv2.1 virtual ISM device support.
- Add support for Batman-avd mulicast packet type.
BPF
---
- Tons of verifier improvements:
- BPF register bounds logic and range support along with a large
test suite
- log improvements
- complete precision tracking support for register spills
- track aligned STACK_ZERO cases as imprecise spilled registers. It
improves the verifier "instructions processed" metric from single
digit to 50-60% for some programs
- support for user's global BPF subprogram arguments with few
commonly requested annotations for a better developer experience
- support tracking of BPF_JNE which helps cases when the compiler
transforms (unsigned) "a > 0" into "if a == 0 goto xxx" and the
like
- several fixes
- Add initial TX metadata implementation for AF_XDP with support in
mlx5 and stmmac drivers. Two types of offloads are supported right
now, that is, TX timestamp and TX checksum offload.
- Fix kCFI bugs in BPF all forms of indirect calls from BPF into
kernel and from kernel into BPF work with CFI enabled. This allows
BPF to work with CONFIG_FINEIBT=y.
- Change BPF verifier logic to validate global subprograms lazily
instead of unconditionally before the main program, so they can be
guarded using BPF CO-RE techniques.
- Support uid/gid options when mounting bpffs.
- Add a new kfunc which acquires the associated cgroup of a task
within a specific cgroup v1 hierarchy where the latter is identified
by its id.
- Extend verifier to allow bpf_refcount_acquire() of a map value field
obtained via direct load which is a use-case needed in sched_ext.
- Add BPF link_info support for uprobe multi link along with bpftool
integration for the latter.
- Support for VLAN tag in XDP hints.
- Remove deprecated bpfilter kernel leftovers given the project
is developed in user-space (https://github.com/facebook/bpfilter).
Misc
----
- Support for parellel TC self-tests execution.
- Increase MPTCP self-tests coverage.
- Updated the bridge documentation, including several so-far
undocumented features.
- Convert all the net self-tests to run in unique netns, to
avoid random failures due to conflict and allow concurrent
runs.
- Add TCP-AO self-tests.
- Add kunit tests for both cfg80211 and mac80211.
- Autogenerate Netlink families documentation from YAML spec.
- Add yml-gen support for fixed headers and recursive nests, the
tool can now generate user-space code for all genetlink families
for which we have specs.
- A bunch of additional module descriptions fixes.
- Catch incorrect freeing of pages belonging to a page pool.
Driver API
----------
- Rust abstractions for network PHY drivers; do not cover yet the
full C API, but already allow implementing functional PHY drivers
in rust.
- Introduce queue and NAPI support in the netdev Netlink interface,
allowing complete access to the device <> NAPIs <> queues
relationship.
- Introduce notifications filtering for devlink to allow control
application scale to thousands of instances.
- Improve PHY validation, requesting rate matching information for
each ethtool link mode supported by both the PHY and host.
- Add support for ethtool symmetric-xor RSS hash.
- ACPI based Wifi band RFI (WBRF) mitigation feature for the AMD
platform.
- Expose pin fractional frequency offset value over new DPLL generic
netlink attribute.
- Convert older drivers to platform remove callback returning void.
- Add support for PHY package MMD read/write.

Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
"The most interesting thing is probably the networking structs
reorganization and a significant amount of changes is around
self-tests.
Core & protocols:
- Analyze and reorganize core networking structs (socks, netdev,
netns, mibs) to optimize cacheline consumption and set up build
time warnings to safeguard against future header changes
This improves TCP performances with many concurrent connections up
to 40%
- Add page-pool netlink-based introspection, exposing the memory
usage and recycling stats. This helps indentify bad PP users and
possible leaks
- Refine TCP/DCCP source port selection to no longer favor even
source port at connect() time when IP_LOCAL_PORT_RANGE is set. This
lowers the time taken by connect() for hosts having many active
connections to the same destination
- Refactor the TCP bind conflict code, shrinking related socket
structs
- Refactor TCP SYN-Cookie handling, as a preparation step to allow
arbitrary SYN-Cookie processing via eBPF
- Tune optmem_max for 0-copy usage, increasing the default value to
128KB and namespecifying it
- Allow coalescing for cloned skbs coming from page pools, improving
RX performances with some common configurations
- Reduce extension header parsing overhead at GRO time
- Add bridge MDB bulk deletion support, allowing user-space to
request the deletion of matching entries
- Reorder nftables struct members, to keep data accessed by the
datapath first
- Introduce TC block ports tracking and use. This allows supporting
multicast-like behavior at the TC layer
- Remove UAPI support for retired TC qdiscs (dsmark, CBQ and ATM) and
classifiers (RSVP and tcindex)
- More data-race annotations
- Extend the diag interface to dump TCP bound-only sockets
- Conditional notification of events for TC qdisc class and actions
- Support for WPAN dynamic associations with nearby devices, to form
a sub-network using a specific PAN ID
- Implement SMCv2.1 virtual ISM device support
- Add support for Batman-avd mulicast packet type
BPF:
- Tons of verifier improvements:
- BPF register bounds logic and range support along with a large
test suite
- log improvements
- complete precision tracking support for register spills
- track aligned STACK_ZERO cases as imprecise spilled registers.
This improves the verifier "instructions processed" metric from
single digit to 50-60% for some programs
- support for user's global BPF subprogram arguments with few
commonly requested annotations for a better developer
experience
- support tracking of BPF_JNE which helps cases when the compiler
transforms (unsigned) "a > 0" into "if a == 0 goto xxx" and the
like
- several fixes
- Add initial TX metadata implementation for AF_XDP with support in
mlx5 and stmmac drivers. Two types of offloads are supported right
now, that is, TX timestamp and TX checksum offload
- Fix kCFI bugs in BPF all forms of indirect calls from BPF into
kernel and from kernel into BPF work with CFI enabled. This allows
BPF to work with CONFIG_FINEIBT=y
- Change BPF verifier logic to validate global subprograms lazily
instead of unconditionally before the main program, so they can be
guarded using BPF CO-RE techniques
- Support uid/gid options when mounting bpffs
- Add a new kfunc which acquires the associated cgroup of a task
within a specific cgroup v1 hierarchy where the latter is
identified by its id
- Extend verifier to allow bpf_refcount_acquire() of a map value
field obtained via direct load which is a use-case needed in
sched_ext
- Add BPF link_info support for uprobe multi link along with bpftool
integration for the latter
- Support for VLAN tag in XDP hints
- Remove deprecated bpfilter kernel leftovers given the project is
developed in user-space (https://github.com/facebook/bpfilter)
Misc:
- Support for parellel TC self-tests execution
- Increase MPTCP self-tests coverage
- Updated the bridge documentation, including several so-far
undocumented features
- Convert all the net self-tests to run in unique netns, to avoid
random failures due to conflict and allow concurrent runs
- Add TCP-AO self-tests
- Add kunit tests for both cfg80211 and mac80211
- Autogenerate Netlink families documentation from YAML spec
- Add yml-gen support for fixed headers and recursive nests, the tool
can now generate user-space code for all genetlink families for
which we have specs
- A bunch of additional module descriptions fixes
- Catch incorrect freeing of pages belonging to a page pool
Driver API:
- Rust abstractions for network PHY drivers; do not cover yet the
full C API, but already allow implementing functional PHY drivers
in rust
- Introduce queue and NAPI support in the netdev Netlink interface,
allowing complete access to the device <> NAPIs <> queues
relationship
- Introduce notifications filtering for devlink to allow control
application scale to thousands of instances
- Improve PHY validation, requesting rate matching information for
each ethtool link mode supported by both the PHY and host
- Add support for ethtool symmetric-xor RSS hash
- ACPI based Wifi band RFI (WBRF) mitigation feature for the AMD
platform
- Expose pin fractional frequency offset value over new DPLL generic
netlink attribute
- Convert older drivers to platform remove callback returning void
- Add support for PHY package MMD read/write

...
- Add machine variable capacity information to /proc/sysinfo.
- Limit the waste of page tables and always align vmalloc area size
and base address on segment boundary.
- Fix a memory leak when an attempt to register interruption sub class
(ISC) for the adjunct-processor (AP) guest failed.
- Reset response code AP_RESPONSE_INVALID_GISA to understandable
by guest AP_RESPONSE_INVALID_ADDRESS in response to a failed
interruption sub class (ISC) registration attempt.
- Improve reaction to adjunct-processor (AP) AP_RESPONSE_OTHERWISE_CHANGED
response code when enabling interrupts on behalf of a guest.
- Fix incorrect sysfs 'status' attribute of adjunct-processor (AP) queue
device bound to the vfio_ap device driver when the mediated device is
attached to a guest, but the queue device is not passed through.
- Rework struct ap_card to hold the whole adjunct-processor (AP) card
hardware information. As result, all the ugly bit checks are replaced
by simple evaluations of the required bit fields.
- Improve handling of some weird scenarios between service element (SE)
host and SE guest with adjunct-processor (AP) pass-through support.
- Change local_ctl_set_bit() and local_ctl_clear_bit() so they return the
previous value of the to be changed control register. This is useful if
a bit is only changed temporarily and the previous content needs to be
restored.
- The kernel starts with machine checks disabled and is expected to enable
it once trap_init() is called. However the implementation allows machine
checks early. Consistently enable it in trap_init() only.
- local_mcck_disable() and local_mcck_enable() assume that machine checks
are always enabled. Instead implement and use local_mcck_save() and
local_mcck_restore() to disable machine checks and restore the previous
state.
- Modification of floating point control (FPC) register of a traced
process using ptrace interface may lead to corruption of the FPC
register of the tracing process. Fix this.
- kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_set_fpu() allows to set the floating point control
(FPC) register in vCPU, but may lead to corruption of the FPC register
of the host process. Fix this.
- Use READ_ONCE() to read a vCPU floating point register value from the
memory mapped area. This avoids that, depending on code generation,
a different value is tested for validity than the one that is used.
- Get rid of test_fp_ctl(), since it is quite subtle to use it correctly.
Instead copy a new floating point control register value into its save
area and test the validity of the new value when loading it.
- Remove superfluous save_fpu_regs() call.
- Remove s390 support for ARCH_WANTS_DYNAMIC_TASK_STRUCT. All machines
provide the vector facility since many years and the need to make the
task structure size dependent on the vector facility does not exist.
- Remove the "novx" kernel command line option, as the vector code runs
without any problems since many years.
- Add the vector facility to the z13 architecture level set (ALS).
All hypervisors support the vector facility since many years.
This allows compile time optimizations of the kernel.
- Get rid of MACHINE_HAS_VX and replace it with cpu_has_vx(). As result,
the compiled code will have less runtime checks and less code.
- Convert pgste_get_lock() and pgste_set_unlock() ASM inlines to C.
- Convert the struct subchannel spinlock from pointer to member.

To help make the move of sysctls out of kernel/sysctl.c not incur a size
penalty sysctl has been changed to allow us to not require the sentinel, the
final empty element on the sysctl array. Joel Granados has been doing all this
work. On the v6.6 kernel we got the major infrastructure changes required to
support this. For v6.7 we had all arch/ and drivers/ modified to remove
the sentinel. For v6.8-rc1 we get a few more updates for fs/ directory only.
The kernel/ directory is left but we'll save that for v6.9-rc1 as those patches
are still being reviewed. After that we then can expect also the removal of the
no longer needed check for procname == NULL.
Let us recap the purpose of this work:
- this helps reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run time
memory consumed by the kernel by about ~64 bytes per array
- the extra 64-byte penalty is no longer inncurred now when we move sysctls
out from kernel/sysctl.c to their own files
Thomas Weißschuh also sent a few cleanups, for v6.9-rc1 we expect to see further
work by Thomas Weißschuh with the constificatin of the struct ctl_table.
Due to Joel Granados's work, and to help bring in new blood, I have suggested
for him to become a maintainer and he's accepted. So for v6.9-rc1 I look forward
to seeing him sent you a pull request for further sysctl changes. This also
removes Iurii Zaikin as a maintainer as he has moved on to other projects and
has had no time to help at all.

The goal is to get sched.h down to a type only header, so the main thing
happening in this patchset is splitting out various _types.h headers and
dependency fixups, as well as moving some things out of sched.h to
better locations.
This is prep work for the memory allocation profiling patchset which
adds new sched.h interdepencencies.
Testing - it's been in -next, and fixes from pretty much all
architectures have percolated in - nothing major.

This KUnit update for Linux 6.8-rc1 consists of:
- a new feature that adds APIs for managing devices introducing
a set of helper functions which allow devices (internally a
struct kunit_device) to be created and managed by KUnit.
These devices will be automatically unregistered on
test exit. These helpers can either use a user-provided
struct device_driver, or have one automatically created and
managed by KUnit. In both cases, the device lives on a new
kunit_bus.
- changes to switch drm/tests to use kunit devices
- several fixes and enhancements to attribute feature
- changes to reorganize deferred action function introducing
KUNIT_DEFINE_ACTION_WRAPPER
- new feature adds ability to run tests after boot using debugfs
- fixes and enhancements to string-stream-test:
- parse ERR_PTR in string_stream_destroy()
- unchecked dereference in bug fix in debugfs_print_results()
- handling errors from alloc_string_stream()
- NULL-dereference bug fix in kunit_init_suite()
