- objpool: Fix objpool overrun case on memory/cache access delay especially
on the big.LITTLE SoC. The objpool uses a copy of object slot index
internal loop, but the slot index can be changed on another processor
in parallel. In that case, the difference of 'head' local copy and the
'slot->last' index will be bigger than local slot size. In that case,
we need to re-read the slot::head to update it.
- kretprobe: Fix to use appropriate rcu API for kretprobe holder. Since
kretprobe_holder::rp is RCU managed, it should use rcu_assign_pointer()
and rcu_dereference_check() correctly. Also adding __rcu tag for
finding wrong usage by sparse.
- rethook: Fix to use appropriate rcu API for rethook::handler. The same
as kretprobe, rethook::handler is RCU managed and it should use
rcu_assign_pointer() and rcu_dereference_check(). This also adds __rcu
tag for finding wrong usage by sparse.

ACPI: Fix ARM32 platforms compile issue introduced by fw_table changes
objpool overrun stress with test_objpool on OrangePi5+ SBC triggered the
following kernel warnings:
WARNING: CPU: 6 PID: 3115 at lib/objpool.c:168 objpool_push+0xc0/0x100
This message is from objpool.c:168:
WARN_ON_ONCE(tail - head > pool->nr_objs);
The overrun test case is to validate the case that pre-allocated objects
are insufficient: 8 objects are pre-allocated for each node and consumer
thread per node tries to grab 16 objects in a row. The testing system is
OrangePI 5+, with RK3588, a big.LITTLE SOC with 4x A76 and 4x A55. When
disabling either all 4 big or 4 little cores, the overrun tests run well,
and once with big and little cores mixed together, the overrun test would
always cause an overrun loop. It's likely the memory timing differences
of big and little cores cause this trouble. Here are the debugging data
of objpool_try_get_slot after try_cmpxchg_release:
objpool_pop: cpu: 4/0 0:0 head: 278/279 tail:278 last:276/278
The local copies of 'head' and 'last' were 278 and 276, and reloading of
'slot->head' and 'slot->last' got 279 and 278. After try_cmpxchg_release
'slot->head' became 'head + 1', which is correct. But what's wrong here
is the stale value of 'last', and that stale value of 'last' finally led
the overrun of 'head'.
Memory updating of 'last' and 'head' are performed in push() and pop()
independently, which could be the culprit leading this out of order
visibility of 'last' and 'head'. So for objpool_try_get_slot(), it's
not enough only checking the condition of 'head != slot', the implicit
condition 'last - head <= nr_objs' must also be explicitly asserted to
guarantee 'last' is always behind 'head' before the object retrieving.
This patch will check and try reloading of 'head' and 'last' to ensure
'last' is behind 'head' at the time of object retrieving. Performance
testings show the average impact is about 0.1% for X86_64 and 1.12% for
ARM64. Here are the results:

"This patchset fixes and enforces correct section alignments for the
ex_table, altinstructions, parisc_unwind, jump_table and bug_table
which are created by inline assembly.
Due to not being correctly aligned at link & load time they can
trigger unnecessarily the kernel unaligned exception handler at
runtime. While at it, I switched the bug table to use relative
addresses which reduces the size of the table by half on 64-bit.
We still had the ENOSYM and EREMOTERELEASE errno symbols as left-overs
from HP-UX, which now trigger build-issues with glibc. We can simply
remove them.
Most of the patches are tagged for stable kernel series.

Pull vfs fixes from Christian Brauner:
- Avoid calling back into LSMs from vfs_getattr_nosec() calls.
IMA used to query inode properties accessing raw inode fields without
dedicated helpers. That was finally fixed a few releases ago by
forcing IMA to use vfs_getattr_nosec() helpers.
The goal of the vfs_getattr_nosec() helper is to query for attributes
without calling into the LSM layer which would be quite problematic
because incredibly IMA is called from __fput()...
__fput()
-> ima_file_free()
What it does is to call back into the filesystem to update the file's
IMA xattr. Querying the inode without using vfs_getattr_nosec() meant
that IMA didn't handle stacking filesystems such as overlayfs
correctly. So the switch to vfs_getattr_nosec() is quite correct. But
the switch to vfs_getattr_nosec() revealed another bug when used on
stacking filesystems:
__fput()
-> ima_file_free()
-> vfs_getattr_nosec()
-> i_op->getattr::ovl_getattr()
-> vfs_getattr()
-> i_op->getattr::$WHATEVER_UNDERLYING_FS_getattr()
-> security_inode_getattr() # calls back into LSMs
Now, if that __fput() happens from task_work_run() of an exiting task
current->fs and various other pointer could already be NULL. So
anything in the LSM layer relying on that not being NULL would be
quite surprised.
Fix that by passing the information that this is a security request
through to the stacking filesystem by adding a new internal
ATT_GETATTR_NOSEC flag. Now the callchain becomes:
__fput()
-> ima_file_free()
-> vfs_getattr_nosec()
-> i_op->getattr::ovl_getattr()
-> if (AT_GETATTR_NOSEC)
vfs_getattr_nosec()
else
vfs_getattr()
-> i_op->getattr::$WHATEVER_UNDERLYING_FS_getattr()
- Fix a bug introduced with the iov_iter rework from last cycle.
This broke /proc/kcore by copying too much and without the correct
offset.
- Add a missing NULL check when allocating the root inode in
autofs_fill_super().
- Fix stable writes for multi-device filesystems (xfs, btrfs etc) and
the block device pseudo filesystem.
Stable writes used to be a superblock flag only, making it a per
filesystem property. Add an additional AS_STABLE_WRITES mapping flag
to allow for fine-grained control.
- Ensure that offset_iterate_dir() returns 0 after reaching the end of
a directory so it adheres to getdents() convention.
* tag 'vfs-6.7-rc3.fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs:
libfs: getdents() should return 0 after reaching EOD
xfs: respect the stable writes flag on the RT device
xfs: clean up FS_XFLAG_REALTIME handling in xfs_ioctl_setattr_xflags

filemap: add a per-mapping stable writes flag
autofs: add: new_inode check in autofs_fill_super()
iov_iter: fix copy_page_to_iter_nofault()
fs: Pass AT_GETATTR_NOSEC flag to getattr interface function
Control flow integrity is now checking that type signatures match on
indirect function calls. That breaks closures, which embed a work_struct
in a closure in such a way that a closure_fn may also be used as a
workqueue fn by the underlying closure code.
So we have to change closure fns to take a work_struct as their
argument - but that results in a loss of clarity, as closure fns have
different semantics from normal workqueue functions (they run owning a
ref on the closure, which must be released with continue_at() or
closure_return()).
Thus, this patc introduces CLOSURE_CALLBACK() and closure_type() macros
as suggested by Kees, to smooth things over a bit.

The issue is caused by the introducing of splitting out the ACPI code to
support the new generic fw_table code.
Rafael suggested [1] moving the fw_table.h include in linux/acpi.h to below
the linux/mutex.h. Remove the two includes in fw_table.h. Replace
linux/fw_table.h include in fw_table.c with linux/acpi.h.

The recent conversion to inline functions made two mistakes:
1. It tries to copy the full amount requested (bytes), not just what's
available in the kmap'd page (n).
2. It's not applying the offset in the first page.
Note that copy_page_to_iter_nofault() is only used by /proc/kcore. This
was detected by drgn's test suite.

zstd: Fix array-index-out-of-bounds UBSAN warning
Zstd used an array of length 1 to mean a flexible array for C89
compatibility. Switch to a C99 flexible array to fix the UBSAN warning.
Tested locally by booting the kernel and writing to and reading from a
BtrFS filesystem with zstd compression enabled. I was unable to reproduce
the issue before the fix, however it is a trivial change.

Today we reset the suite counter as part of the suite cleanup,
called from the module exit callback, but it might not work that
well as one can try to collect results without unloading a previous
test (either unintentionally or due to dependencies).
For easy reproduction try to load the kunit-test.ko and then
collect and parse results from the kunit-example-test.ko load.
Parser will complain about mismatch of expected test number:
[ ] KTAP version 1
[ ] 1..1
[ ] # example: initializing suite
[ ] KTAP version 1
[ ] # Subtest: example
..
[ ] # example: pass:5 fail:0 skip:4 total:9
[ ] # Totals: pass:6 fail:0 skip:6 total:12
[ ] ok 7 example
[ ] [ERROR] Test: example: Expected test number 1 but found 7
[ ] ===================== [PASSED] example =====================
[ ] ============================================================
[ ] Testing complete. Ran 12 tests: passed: 6, skipped: 6, errors: 1
Since we are now printing suite test plan on every module load,
right before running suite tests, we should make sure that suite
counter will also start from 1. Easiest solution seems to be move
counter reset to the __kunit_test_suites_init() function.

Kunit recently gained support to setup attributes, the first one being
the speed of a given test, then allowing to filter out slow tests.
A slow test is defined in the documentation as taking more than one
second. There's an another speed attribute called "super slow" but whose
definition is less clear.
Add support to the test runner to check the test execution time, and
report tests that should be marked as slow but aren't.

Here's the second big bcachefs pull request. This brings your tree up to
date with my master branch, which is what existing bcachefs users are
currently running.
All but the last few patches have been in linux-next, those being small
fixes. Test results from my dashboard:
https://evilpiepirate.org/~testdashboard/ci?commit=c7046ed0cf9bb33599aa7e72e7b67bba4be42d64
New features:
- rebalance_work btree (and metadata version 1.3): the rebalance thread
no longer has to scan to find extents that need processing - big
scalability improvement.
- sb_errors superblock section: this adds counters for each fsck error
type, since filesystem creation, along with the date of the most
recent error. It'll get us better bug reports (since users do not
typically report errors that fsck was able to fix), and I might add
telemetry for this in the future.
Fixes include:
- multiple snapshot deletion fixes
- members_v2 fixups
- deleted_inodes btree fixes
- copygc thread no longer spins when a device is full but has no
fragmented buckets (i.e. rebalance needs to move data around instead)
- a fix for a memory reclaim issue with the btree key cache: we're now
careful not to hold the srcu read lock that blocks key cache reclaim
for too long
- an early allocator locking fix, from Brian

Pull CXL (Compute Express Link) updates from Dan Williams:
"The main new functionality this time is work to allow Linux to
natively handle CXL link protocol errors signalled via PCIe AER for
current generation CXL platforms. This required some enlightenment of
the PCIe AER core to workaround the fact that current generation RCH
(Restricted CXL Host) platforms physically hide topology details and
registers via a mechanism called RCRB (Root Complex Register Block).
The next major highlight is reworks to address bugs in parsing region
configurations for next generation VH (Virtual Host) topologies. The
old broken algorithm is replaced with a simpler one that significantly
increases the number of region configurations supported by Linux. This
is again relevant for error handling so that forward and reverse
address translation of memory errors can be carried out by Linux for
memory regions instantiated by platform firmware.
As for other cross-tree work, the ACPI table parsing code has been
refactored for reuse parsing the "CDAT" structure which is an
ACPI-like data structure that is reported by CXL devices. That work is
in preparation for v6.8 support for CXL QoS. Think of this as dynamic
generation of NUMA node topology information generated by Linux rather
than platform firmware.
Lastly, a number of internal object lifetime issues have been resolved
along with misc. fixes and feature updates (decoders_committed sysfs
ABI).
Summary:
- Add support for RCH (Restricted CXL Host) Error recovery
- Fix several region assembly bugs
- Fix mem-device lifetime issues relative to the sanitize command and
RCH topology.
- Refactor ACPI table parsing for CDAT parsing re-use in preparation

- Remove eventfs_file descriptor
This is the biggest change, and the second part of making eventfs
create its files dynamically.
In 6.6 the first part was added, and that maintained a one to one
mapping between eventfs meta descriptors and the directories and
file inodes and dentries that were dynamically created. The
directories were represented by a eventfs_inode and the files
were represented by a eventfs_file.
In v6.7 the eventfs_file is removed. As all events have the same
directory make up (sched_switch has an "enable", "id", "format",
etc files), the handing of what files are underneath each leaf
eventfs directory is moved back to the tracing subsystem via a
callback. When a event is added to the eventfs, it registers
an array of evenfs_entry's. These hold the names of the files and
the callbacks to call when the file is referenced. The callback gets
the name so that the same callback may be used by multiple files.
The callback then supplies the filesystem_operations structure needed
to create this file.
This has brought the memory footprint of creating multiple eventfs
instances down by 2 megs each!
- User events now has persistent events that are not associated
to a single processes. These are privileged events that hang around
even if no process is attached to them.
- Clean up of seq_buf.
There's talk about using seq_buf more to replace strscpy() and friends.
But this also requires some minor modifications of seq_buf to be
able to do this.
- Expand instance ring buffers individually
Currently if boot up creates an instance, and a trace event is
enabled on that instance, the ring buffer for that instance and the
top level ring buffer are expanded (1.4 MB per CPU). This wastes
memory as this happens when nothing is using the top level instance.
- Other minor clean ups and fixes.

top level ring buffer are expanded (1.4 MB per CPU). This wastes
memory as this happens when nothing is using the top level instance

Merge tag 'printk-for-6.7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/printk/linux
Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:
- Another preparation step for introducing printk kthreads. The main
piece is a per-console lock with several features:
- Support three priorities: normal, emergency, and panic. They will
be defined by a context where the lock is taken. A context with a
higher priority is allowed to take over the lock from a context
with a lower one.
The plan is to use the emergency context for Oops and WARN()
messages, and also by watchdogs.
The panic() context will be used on panic CPU.
- The owner might enter/exit regions where it is not safe to take
over the lock. It allows the take over the lock a safe way in the
middle of a message.
For example, serial drivers emit characters one by one. And the
serial port is in a safe state in between.
Only the final console_flush_in_panic() will be allowed to take
over the lock even in the unsafe state (last chance, pray, and
hope).
- A higher priority context might busy wait with a timeout. The
current owner is informed about the waiter and releases the lock
on exit from the unsafe state.
- The new lock is safe even in atomic contexts, including NMI.
Another change is a safe manipulation of per-console sequence number
counter under the new lock.
- simple_strntoull() micro-optimization
- Reduce pr_flush() pooling time.
- Calm down false warning about possible buffer invalid access to
console buffers when CONFIG_PRINTK is disabled.
[ .. and Thomas Gleixner wants to point out that while several of the
commits are attributed to him, he only authored the early versions of
said commits, and that John Ogness and Petr Mladek have been the ones
who sorted out the details and really should be those who get the

* tag 'linux_kselftest-kunit-6.7-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/shuah/linux-kselftest:
kunit: test: Fix the possible memory leak in executor_test

- cleanups:
. kprobes: Fixes typo in kprobes samples.
. tracing/eprobes: Remove 'break' after return.
- kretprobe/fprobe performance improvements:
. lib: Introduce new `objpool`, which is a high performance lockless
object queue. This uses per-cpu ring array to allocate/release
objects from the pre-allocated object pool. Since the index of ring
array is a 32bit sequential counter, we can retry to push/pop the
object pointer from the ring without lock (as seq-lock does).
. lib: Add an objpool test module to test the functionality and
evaluate the performance under some circumstances.
. kprobes/fprobe: Improve kretprobe and rethook scalability
performance with objpool.
This improves both legacy kretprobe and fprobe exit handler (which
is based on rethook) to be scalable on SMP systems. Even with
8-threads parallel test, it shows a great scalability improvement.
. Remove unneeded freelist.h which is replaced by objpool.
. objpool: Add maintainers entry for the objpool.
. objpool: Fix to remove unused include header lines.

the added map_shadow_stack() syscall and to remove references
to the long-gone sys_lookup_dcookie() syscall.

The highlights for the driver support this time are
- Qualcomm platforms gain support for the Qualcomm Secure Execution
Environment firmware interface to access EFI variables on certain
devices, and new features for multiple platform and firmware drivers.
- Arm FF-A firmware support gains support for v1.1 specification features,
in particular notification and memory transaction descriptor changes.
- SCMI firmware support now support v3.2 features for clock and DVFS
configuration and a new transport for Qualcomm platforms.
- Minor cleanups and bugfixes are added to pretty much all the active
platforms: qualcomm, broadcom, dove, ti-k3, rockchip, sifive, amlogic,
atmel, tegra, aspeed, vexpress, mediatek, samsung and more.
In particular, this contains portions of the treewide conversion to
use __counted_by annotations and the device_get_match_data helper.

Core & protocols
----------------
- Support usec resolution of TCP timestamps, enabled selectively by
a route attribute.
- Defer regular TCP ACK while processing socket backlog, try to send
a cumulative ACK at the end. Increase single TCP flow performance
on a 200Gbit NIC by 20% (100Gbit -> 120Gbit).
- The Fair Queuing (FQ) packet scheduler:
- add built-in 3 band prio / WRR scheduling
- support bypass if the qdisc is mostly idle (5% speed up for TCP RR)
- improve inactive flow reporting
- optimize the layout of structures for better cache locality
- Support TCP Authentication Option (RFC 5925, TCP-AO), a more modern
replacement for the old MD5 option.
- Add more retransmission timeout (RTO) related statistics to TCP_INFO.
- Support sending fragmented skbs over vsock sockets.
- Make sure we send SIGPIPE for vsock sockets if socket was shutdown().
- Add sysctl for ignoring lower limit on lifetime in Router
Advertisement PIO, based on an in-progress IETF draft.
- Add sysctl to control activation of TCP ping-pong mode.
- Add sysctl to make connection timeout in MPTCP configurable.
- Support rcvlowat and notsent_lowat on MPTCP sockets, to help apps
limit the number of wakeups.
- Support netlink GET for MDB (multicast forwarding), allowing user
space to request a single MDB entry instead of dumping the entire
table.
- Support selective FDB flushing in the VXLAN tunnel driver.
- Allow limiting learned FDB entries in bridges, prevent OOM attacks.
- Allow controlling via configfs netconsole targets which were created
via the kernel cmdline at boot, rather than via configfs at runtime.
- Support multiple PTP timestamp event queue readers with different
filters.
- MCTP over I3C.
BPF
---
- Add new veth-like netdevice where BPF program defines the logic
of the xmit routine. It can operate in L3 and L2 mode.
- Support exceptions - allow asserting conditions which should
never be true but are hard for the verifier to infer.
With some extra flexibility around handling of the exit / failure.
https://lwn.net/Articles/938435/
- Add support for local per-cpu kptr, allow allocating and storing
per-cpu objects in maps. Access to those objects operates on
the value for the current CPU. This allows to deprecate local
one-off implementations of per-CPU storage like
BPF_MAP_TYPE_PERCPU_CGROUP_STORAGE maps.
- Extend cgroup BPF sockaddr hooks for UNIX sockets. The use case is
for systemd to re-implement the LogNamespace feature which allows
running multiple instances of systemd-journald to process the logs
of different services.
- Enable open-coded task_vma iteration, after maple tree conversion
made it hard to directly walk VMAs in tracing programs.
- Add open-coded task, css_task and css iterator support.
One of the use cases is customizable OOM victim selection via BPF.
- Allow source address selection with bpf_*_fib_lookup().
- Add ability to pin BPF timer to the current CPU.
- Prevent creation of infinite loops by combining tail calls and
fentry/fexit programs.
- Add missed stats for kprobes to retrieve the number of missed kprobe
executions and subsequent executions of BPF programs.
- Inherit system settings for CPU security mitigations.
- Add BPF v4 CPU instruction support for arm32 and s390x.
Changes to common code
----------------------
- overflow: add DEFINE_FLEX() for on-stack definition of structs
with flexible array members.
- Process doc update with more guidance for reviewers.
Driver API
----------
- Simplify locking in WiFi (cfg80211 and mac80211 layers), use wiphy
mutex in most places and remove a lot of smaller locks.
- Create a common DPLL configuration API. Allow configuring
and querying state of PLL circuits used for clock syntonization,
in network time distribution.
- Unify fragmented and full page allocation APIs in page pool code.
Let drivers be ignorant of PAGE_SIZE.
- Rework PHY state machine to avoid races with calls to phy_stop().
- Notify DSA drivers of MAC address changes on user ports, improve
correctness of offloads which depend on matching port MAC addresses.
- Allow antenna control on injected WiFi frames.
- Reduce the number of variants of napi_schedule().
- Simplify error handling when composing devlink health messages.
Misc
----
- A lot of KCSAN data race "fixes", from Eric.
- A lot of __counted_by() annotations, from Kees.
- A lot of strncpy -> strscpy and printf format fixes.
- Replace master/slave terminology with conduit/user in DSA drivers.
- Handful of KUnit tests for netdev and WiFi core.

- Add ability to pin BPF timer to the current CPU.
- Prevent creation of infinite loops by combining tail calls and
fentry/fexit programs.
- Add missed stats for kprobes to retrieve the number of missed
kprobe executions and subsequent executions of BPF programs.
- Inherit system settings for CPU security mitigations.
- Add BPF v4 CPU instruction support for arm32 and s390x.
Changes to common code:
- overflow: add DEFINE_FLEX() for on-stack definition of structs with
flexible array members.
- Process doc update with more guidance for reviewers.
Driver API:
- Simplify locking in WiFi (cfg80211 and mac80211 layers), use wiphy
mutex in most places and remove a lot of smaller locks.
- Create a common DPLL configuration API. Allow configuring and
querying state of PLL circuits used for clock syntonization, in
network time distribution.
- Unify fragmented and full page allocation APIs in page pool code.
Let drivers be ignorant of PAGE_SIZE.
- Rework PHY state machine to avoid races with calls to phy_stop().
- Notify DSA drivers of MAC address changes on user ports, improve
correctness of offloads which depend on matching port MAC
addresses.

As pointed out by Linus, closure_sync() was racy; we could skip blocking
immediately after a get() and a put(), but then that would skip any
barrier corresponding to the other thread's put() barrier.
To fix this, always do the full __closure_sync() sequence whenever any
get() has happened and the closure might have been used by other
threads.
Signed-off-by: Kent Overstreet <kent.overstreet@linux.dev>
atomic_(dec|sub)_return_release() are a thing now - use them.
Also, delete the useless barrier in set_closure_fn(): it's redundant
with the memory barrier in closure_put(0.
Since closure_put() would now otherwise just have a release barrier, we
also need a new barrier when the ref hits 0 -
smp_acquire__after_ctrl_dep().

Here's the bcachefs filesystem pull request.
One new patch since last week: the exportfs constants ended up
conflicting with other filesystems that are also getting added to the
global enum, so switched to new constants picked by Amir.
I'll also be sending another pull request later on in the cycle bringing
things up to date my master branch that people are currently running;
that will be restricted to fs/bcachefs/, naturally.
Testing - fstests as well as the bcachefs specific tests in ktest:
https://evilpiepirate.org/~testdashboard/ci?branch=bcachefs-for-upstream
It's also been soaking in linux-next, which resulted in a whole bunch of
smatch complaints and fixes and a patch or two from Kees.
The only new non fs/bcachefs/ patch is the objtool patch that adds
bcachefs functions to the list of noreturns. The patch that exports
osq_lock() has been dropped for now, per Ingo.

"Here's the bcachefs filesystem pull request.
One new patch since last week: the exportfs constants ended up
conflicting with other filesystems that are also getting added to the
global enum, so switched to new constants picked by Amir.
The only new non fs/bcachefs/ patch is the objtool patch that adds
bcachefs functions to the list of noreturns. The patch that exports
osq_lock() has been dropped for now, per Ingo"

This release completes the SunRPC thread scheduler work that was
begun in v6.6. The scheduler can now find an svc thread to wake in
constant time and without a list walk. Thanks again to Neil Brown
for this overhaul.
Lorenzo Bianconi contributed infrastructure for a netlink-based
NFSD control plane. The long-term plan is to provide the same
functionality as found in /proc/fs/nfsd, plus some interesting
additions, and then migrate the NFSD user space utilities to
netlink.
A long series to overhaul NFSD's NFSv4 operation encoding was
applied in this release. The goals are to bring this family of
encoding functions in line with the matching NFSv4 decoding
functions and with the NFSv2 and NFSv3 XDR functions, preparing
the way for better memory safety and maintainability.
A further improvement to NFSD's write delegation support was
contributed by Dai Ngo. This adds a CB_GETATTR callback,
enabling the server to retrieve cached size and mtime data from
clients holding write delegations. If the server can retrieve
this information, it does not have to recall the delegation in
some cases.
The usual panoply of bug fixes and minor improvements round out
this release. As always I am grateful to all contributors,
reviewers, and testers.

Pull iov_iter updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contain's David's iov_iter cleanup work to convert the iov_iter
iteration macros to inline functions:
- Remove last_offset from iov_iter as it was only used by ITER_PIPE
- Add a __user tag on copy_mc_to_user()'s dst argument on x86 to
match that on powerpc and get rid of a sparse warning
- Convert iter->user_backed to user_backed_iter() in the sound PCM
driver
- Convert iter->user_backed to user_backed_iter() in a couple of
infiniband drivers
- Renumber the type enum so that the ITER_* constants match the order
in iterate_and_advance*()
- Since the preceding patch puts UBUF and IOVEC at 0 and 1, change
user_backed_iter() to just use the type value and get rid of the
extra flag
- Convert the iov_iter iteration macros to always-inline functions to
make the code easier to follow. It uses function pointers, but they
get optimised away
- Move the check for ->copy_mc to _copy_from_iter() and
copy_page_from_iter_atomic() rather than in memcpy_from_iter_mc()
where it gets repeated for every segment. Instead, we check once
and invoke a side function that can use iterate_bvec() rather than
iterate_and_advance() and supply a different step function
- Move the copy-and-csum code to net/ where it can be in proximity
with the code that uses it
- Fold memcpy_and_csum() in to its two users
- Move csum_and_copy_from_iter_full() out of line and merge in
csum_and_copy_from_iter() since the former is the only caller of
the latter
- Move hash_and_copy_to_iter() to net/ where it can be with its only
caller"

Solve two ergonomic issues with struct seq_buf;
1) Too much boilerplate is required to initialize:
struct seq_buf s;
char buf[32];
seq_buf_init(s, buf, sizeof(buf));
Instead, we can build this directly on the stack. Provide
DECLARE_SEQ_BUF() macro to do this:
DECLARE_SEQ_BUF(s, 32);
2) %NUL termination is fragile and requires 2 steps to get a valid
C String (and is a layering violation exposing the "internals" of
seq_buf):
seq_buf_terminate(s);
do_something(s->buffer);
Instead, we can just return s->buffer directly after terminating it in
the refactored seq_buf_terminate(), now known as seq_buf_str():
do_something(seq_buf_str(s));

Some of the routines in ACPI driver/acpi/tables.c can be shared with
parsing CDAT. CDAT is a device-provided data structure that is formatted
similar to a platform provided ACPI table. CDAT is used by CXL and can
exist on platforms that do not use ACPI. Split out the common routine
from ACPI to accommodate platforms that do not support ACPI and move that
to /lib. The common routines can be built outside of ACPI if
FIRMWARE_TABLES is selected.

As kernel test robot reported, lib/test_objpool.c (trace:probes/for-next)
has linux/version.h included, but version.h is not used at all. Then more
unused headers are found in test_objpool.c and rethook.c, and all of them
should be removed.

To make seq_buf more lightweight as a string buf, move the readpos member
from seq_buf to its container, trace_seq. That puts the responsibility
of maintaining the readpos entirely in the tracing code. If some future
users want to package up the readpos with a seq_buf, we can define a
new struct then.

We currently push everyone to use padding to align 64b values
in netlink. Un-padded nla_put_u64() doesn't even exist any more.
The story behind this possibly start with this thread:
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20121204.130914.1457976839967676240.davem@davemloft.net/
where DaveM was concerned about the alignment of a structure
containing 64b stats. If user space tries to access such struct
directly:
struct some_stats *stats = nla_data(attr);
printf("A: %llu", stats->a);
lack of alignment may become problematic for some architectures.
These days we most often put every single member in a separate
attribute, meaning that the code above would use a helper like
nla_get_u64(), which can deal with alignment internally.
Even for arches which don't have good unaligned access - access
aligned to 4B should be pretty efficient.
Kernel and well known libraries deal with unaligned input already.
Padded 64b is quite space-inefficient (64b + pad means at worst 16B
per attr vs 32b which takes 8B). It is also more typing:
if (nla_put_u64_pad(rsp, NETDEV_A_SOMETHING_SOMETHING,
value, NETDEV_A_SOMETHING_PAD))
Create a new attribute type which will use 32 bits at netlink
level if value is small enough (probably most of the time?),
and (4B-aligned) 64 bits otherwise. Kernel API is just:
if (nla_put_uint(rsp, NETDEV_A_SOMETHING_SOMETHING, value))
Calling this new type "just" sint / uint with no specific size
will hopefully also make people more comfortable with using it.
Currently telling people "don't use u8, you may need the bits,
and netlink will round up to 4B, anyway" is the #1 comment
we give to newcomers.
In terms of netlink layout it looks like this:
0 4 8 12 16
32b: [nlattr][ u32 ]
64b: [ pad ][nlattr][ u64 ]
uint(32) [nlattr][ u32 ]
uint(64) [nlattr][ u64 ]
