The most notable change is the drop of the 'alloc' in-tree fork. This
is nicely reflected in the diffstat as a ~10k lines drop. In turn, this
makes the version upgrades way simpler and smaller in the future, e.g.
the latest one in commit 56f64b370612 ("rust: upgrade to Rust 1.78.0").
More importantly, this increases the chances that a newer compiler
version just works, which in turn means supporting several compiler
versions is easier now. Thus we will look into finally setting a minimum
version in the near future.
Toolchain and infrastructure:
- Upgrade to Rust 1.78.0.
This time around, due to how the kernel and Rust schedules have
aligned, there are two upgrades in fact. These allow us to remove one
more unstable feature ('offset_of') from the list, among other
improvements.
- Drop 'alloc' in-tree fork of the standard library crate, which means
all the unstable features used by 'alloc' (~30 language ones, ~60
library ones) are not a concern anymore.
- Support DWARFv5 via the '-Zdwarf-version' flag.
- Support zlib and zstd debuginfo compression via the
'-Zdebuginfo-compression' flag.
'kernel' crate:
- Support allocation flags ('GFP_*'), particularly in 'Box' (via
'BoxExt'), 'Vec' (via 'VecExt'), 'Arc' and 'UniqueArc', as well as in
the 'init' module APIs.
- Remove usage of the 'allocator_api' unstable feature.
- Remove 'try_' prefix in allocation APIs' names.
- Add 'VecExt' (an extension trait) to be able to drop the 'alloc'
fork.
- Add the '{make,to}_{upper,lower}case()' methods to 'CStr'/'CString'.
- Add the 'as_ptr' method to 'ThisModule'.
- Add the 'from_raw' method to 'ArcBorrow'.
- Add the 'into_unique_or_drop' method to 'Arc'.
- Display column number in the 'dbg!' macro output by applying the
equivalent change done to the standard library one.
- Migrate 'Work' to '#[pin_data]' thanks to the changes in the 'macros'
crate, which allows to remove an unsafe call in its 'new' associated
function.
- Prevent namespacing issues when using the '[try_][pin_]init!' macros
by changing the generated name of guard variables.
- Make the 'get' method in 'Opaque' const.
- Implement the 'Default' trait for 'LockClassKey'.
- Remove unneeded 'kernel::prelude' imports from doctests.
- Remove redundant imports.
'macros' crate:
- Add 'decl_generics' to 'parse_generics()' to support default values,
and use that to allow them in '#[pin_data]'.
Helpers:
- Trivial English grammar fix.
Documentation:
- Add section on Rust Kselftests to the "Testing" document.
- Expand the "Abstractions vs. bindings" section of the "General
Information" document.

This is the next upgrade to the Rust toolchain, from 1.77.1 to 1.78.0
(i.e. the latest) [1].
See the upgrade policy [2] and the comments on the first upgrade in
commit 3ed03f4da06e ("rust: upgrade to Rust 1.68.2").
It is much smaller than previous upgrades, since the `alloc` fork was
dropped in commit 9d0441bab775 ("rust: alloc: remove our fork of the
`alloc` crate") [3].
# Unstable features
There have been no changes to the set of unstable features used in
our own code. Therefore, the only unstable features allowed to be used
outside the `kernel` crate is still `new_uninit`.
However, since we finally dropped our `alloc` fork [3], all the unstable
features used by `alloc` (~30 language ones, ~60 library ones) are not
a concern anymore. This reduces the maintenance burden, increases the
chances of new compiler versions working without changes and gets us
closer to the goal of supporting several compiler versions.
It also means that, ignoring non-language/library features, we are
currently left with just the few language features needed to implement the
kernel `Arc`, the `new_uninit` library feature, the `compiler_builtins`
marker and the few `no_*` `cfg`s we pass when compiling `core`/`alloc`.
Please see [4] for details.
# Required changes
## LLVM's data layout
Rust 1.77.0 (i.e. the previous upgrade) introduced a check for matching
LLVM data layouts [5]. Then, Rust 1.78.0 upgraded LLVM's bundled major
version from 17 to 18 [6], which changed the data layout in x86 [7]. Thus
update the data layout in our custom target specification for x86 so
that the compiler does not complain about the mismatch:
error: data-layout for target `target-5559158138856098584`,
`e-m:e-p270:32:32-p271:32:32-p272:64:64-i64:64-f80:128-n8:16:32:64-S128`,
differs from LLVM target's `x86_64-linux-gnu` default layout,
`e-m:e-p270:32:32-p271:32:32-p272:64:64-i64:64-i128:128-f80:128-n8:16:32:64-S128`
In the future, the goal is to drop the custom target specifications.
Meanwhile, if we want to support other LLVM versions used in `rustc`
(e.g. for LTO), we will need to add some extra logic (e.g. conditional on
LLVM's version, or extracting the data layout from an existing built-in
target specification).
## `unused_imports`
Rust's `unused_imports` lint covers both unused and redundant imports.
Now, in 1.78.0, the lint detects more cases of redundant imports [8].
Thus one of the previous patches cleaned them up.
## Clippy's `new_without_default`
Clippy now suggests to implement `Default` even when `new()` is `const`,
since `Default::default()` may call `const` functions even if it is not
`const` itself [9]. Thus one of the previous patches implemented it.
# Other changes in Rust
Rust 1.78.0 introduced `feature(asm_goto)` [10] [11]. This feature was
discussed in the past [12].
Rust 1.78.0 introduced `feature(const_refs_to_static)` [13] to allow
referencing statics in constants and extended `feature(const_mut_refs)`
to allow raw mutable pointers in constants. Together, this should cover
the kernel's `VTABLE` use case. In fact, the implementation [14] in
upstream Rust added a test case for it [15].
Rust 1.78.0 with debug assertions enabled (i.e. `-Cdebug-assertions=y`,
kernel's `CONFIG_RUST_DEBUG_ASSERTIONS=y`) now always checks all unsafe
preconditions, though without a way to opt-out for particular cases [16].
It would be ideal to have a way to selectively disable certain checks
per-call site for this one (i.e. not just per check but for particular
instances of a check), even if the vast majority of the checks remain
in place [17].
Rust 1.78.0 also improved a couple issues we reported when giving feedback
for the new `--check-cfg` feature [18] [19].
# `alloc` upgrade and reviewing
As mentioned above, compiler upgrades will not update `alloc` anymore,
since we dropped our `alloc` fork [3].

As mentioned in "Assumption:", current grep expression can't catch
font files whose names are changed from upstream "Noto CJK fonts".
To avoid false negatives, use command of the form:
fc-list : file family variable
, where ":" works as a wildcard pattern.
Variable fonts can be detected by filtering the output with
"variable=True" and "Noto CJK" font-family variants.

If one attempts to build an essentially empty file somewhere in the
kernel tree, it leads to a build error because the compiler does not
recognize the `new_uninit` unstable feature:
error[E0635]: unknown feature `new_uninit`
--> <crate attribute>:1:9
|
1 | feature(new_uninit)
| ^^^^^^^^^^
The reason is that we pass `-Zcrate-attr='feature(new_uninit)'` (together
with `-Zallow-features=new_uninit`) to let non-`rust/` code use that
unstable feature.
However, the compiler only recognizes the feature if the `alloc` crate
is resolved (the feature is an `alloc` one). `--extern alloc`, which we
pass, is not enough to resolve the crate.
Introducing a reference like `use alloc;` or `extern crate alloc;`
solves the issue, thus this is not seen in normal files. For instance,
`use`ing the `kernel` prelude introduces such a reference, since `alloc`
is used inside.
While normal use of the build system is not impacted by this, it can still
be fairly confusing for kernel developers [1], thus use the unstable
`force` option of `--extern` [2] (added in Rust 1.71 [3]) to force the
compiler to resolve `alloc`.
This new unstable feature is only needed meanwhile we use the other
unstable feature, since then we will not need `-Zcrate-attr`.

kernel-doc emits a warning on struct_group_tagged() if you describe your
struct group member:
include/net/libeth/rx.h:69: warning: Excess struct member 'fp' description in 'libeth_fq'
The code:
/**
* struct libeth_fq - structure representing a buffer queue
* @fp: hotpath part of the structure
* @pp: &page_pool for buffer management
[...]
*/
struct libeth_fq {
struct_group_tagged(libeth_fq_fp, fp,
struct page_pool *pp;

);
When a struct_group_tagged() is encountered, we need to build a
`struct TAG NAME;` from it, so that it will be treated as a valid
embedded struct.
Decouple the regex and do the replacement there. As far as I can see,
this doesn't produce any new warnings on the current mainline tree.

Currently, kernel modules contain their own set of expoline thunks. In
the case of EXPOLINE_EXTERN, this involves postlinking of precompiled
expoline.o. expoline.o is also necessary for out-of-source tree module
builds.
Now that the kernel modules area is less than 4 GB away from
kernel expoline thunks, make modules use kernel expolines. Also make
EXPOLINE_EXTERN the default if the compiler supports it. This simplifies
build and aligns with the approach adopted by other architectures.

Fedora and openSUSE has started deploying "variable font" [1] format
Noto CJK fonts [2, 3]. "CJK" here stands for "Chinese, Japanese,
and Korean".
Unfortunately, XeTeX/XeLaTeX doesn't understand those fonts for
historical reasons and builds of translations.pdf end up in errors
if such fonts are present on the build host.
To help developers work around the issue, add a script to check the
presence of "variable font" Noto CJK fonts and to emit suggestions.
The script is invoked in the error path of "make pdfdocs" so that the
suggestions are made only when a PDF build actually fails.
The first suggestion is to denylist those "variable font" files by
activating a per-user and command-local fontconfig setting.
For further info and backgrounds, please refer to the header comment
of scripts/check-variable-font.sh newly added in this commit.

When KCSAN and CONSTRUCTORS are enabled, one can trigger the
"Unpatched return thunk in use. This should not happen!"
catch-all warning.
Usually, when objtool runs on the .o objects, it does generate a section
.return_sites which contains all offsets in the objects to the return
thunks of the functions present there. Those return thunks then get
patched at runtime by the alternatives.
KCSAN and CONSTRUCTORS add this to the object file's .text.startup
section:
-------------------
Disassembly of section .text.startup:
...

1a: R_X86_64_PLT32 __x86_return_thunk-0x4
-------------------
which, if it is built as a module goes through the intermediary stage of
creating a <module>.mod.c file which, when translated, receives a second
constructor:
-------------------
Disassembly of section .text.startup:

Objtool has run already so that second constructor's return thunk cannot
be added to the .return_sites section and thus the return thunk remains
unpatched and the warning rightfully fires.
Drop KCSAN flags from the mod.c generation stage as those constructors
do not contain data races one would be interested about.

The -Woverride-init warn about code that may be intentional or not,
but the inintentional ones tend to be real bugs, so there is a bit of
disagreement on whether this warning option should be enabled by default
and we have multiple settings in scripts/Makefile.extrawarn as well as
individual subsystems.
Older versions of clang only supported -Wno-initializer-overrides with
the same meaning as gcc's -Woverride-init, though all supported versions
now work with both. Because of this difference, an earlier cleanup of
mine accidentally turned the clang warning off for W=1 builds and only
left it on for W=2, while it's still enabled for gcc with W=1.
There is also one driver that only turns the warning off for newer
versions of gcc but not other compilers, and some but not all the
Makefiles still use a cc-disable-warning conditional that is no
longer needed with supported compilers here.
Address all of the above by removing the special cases for clang
and always turning the warning off unconditionally where it got
in the way, using the syntax that is supported by both compilers.

This is the next upgrade to the Rust toolchain, from 1.76.0 to 1.77.1
(i.e. the latest) [1].
See the upgrade policy [2] and the comments on the first upgrade in
commit 3ed03f4da06e ("rust: upgrade to Rust 1.68.2").
# Unstable features
The `offset_of` feature (single-field `offset_of!`) that we were using
got stabilized in Rust 1.77.0 [3].
Therefore, now the only unstable features allowed to be used outside the
`kernel` crate is `new_uninit`, though other code to be upstreamed may
increase the list.
Please see [4] for details.
# Required changes
Rust 1.77.0 merged the `unused_tuple_struct_fields` lint into `dead_code`,
thus upgrading it from `allow` to `warn` [5]. In turn, this made `rustc`
complain about the `ThisModule`'s pointer field being never read, but
the previous patch adds the `as_ptr` method to it, needed by Binder [6],
so that we do not need to locally `allow` it.
# Other changes
Rust 1.77.0 introduces the `--check-cfg` feature [7], for which there
is a Call for Testing going on [8]. We were requested to test it and
we found it useful [9] -- we will likely enable it in the future.
# `alloc` upgrade and reviewing
The vast majority of changes are due to our `alloc` fork being upgraded
at once.
There are two kinds of changes to be aware of: the ones coming from
upstream, which we should follow as closely as possible, and the updates
needed in our added fallible APIs to keep them matching the newer
infallible APIs coming from upstream.
Instead of taking a look at the diff of this patch, an alternative
approach is reviewing a diff of the changes between upstream `alloc` and
the kernel's. This allows to easily inspect the kernel additions only,
especially to check if the fallible methods we already have still match
the infallible ones in the new version coming from upstream.
Another approach is reviewing the changes introduced in the additions in
the kernel fork between the two versions. This is useful to spot
potentially unintended changes to our additions.
To apply these approaches, one may follow steps similar to the following
to generate a pair of patches that show the differences between upstream
Rust and the kernel (for the subset of `alloc` we use) before and after
applying this patch:
# Get the difference with respect to the old version.
git -C rust checkout $(linux/scripts/min-tool-version.sh rustc)
git -C linux ls-tree -r --name-only HEAD -- rust/alloc |
cut -d/ -f3- |
grep -Fv README.md |
xargs -IPATH cp rust/library/alloc/src/PATH linux/rust/alloc/PATH
git -C linux diff --patch-with-stat --summary -R > old.patch
git -C linux restore rust/alloc
# Apply this patch.
git -C linux am rust-upgrade.patch
# Get the difference with respect to the new version.
git -C rust checkout $(linux/scripts/min-tool-version.sh rustc)
git -C linux ls-tree -r --name-only HEAD -- rust/alloc |
cut -d/ -f3- |
grep -Fv README.md |
xargs -IPATH cp rust/library/alloc/src/PATH linux/rust/alloc/PATH
git -C linux diff --patch-with-stat --summary -R > new.patch
git -C linux restore rust/alloc
Now one may check the `new.patch` to take a look at the additions (first
approach) or at the difference between those two patches (second
approach). For the latter, a side-by-side tool is recommended.

As mentioned in commit 397586506c3d ("modpost: Add '.ltext' and
'.ltext.*' to TEXT_SECTIONS"), modpost can result in a segmentation
fault due to a NULL pointer dereference in default_mismatch_handler().
find_tosym() can return the original symbol pointer instead of NULL
if a better one is not found.
This fixes the reported segmentation fault.

The boolean 'choice' is used to list exclusively selected config
options.
You must not add a dependency between choice members, because such a
dependency would create an invisible entry.
In the following test case, it is impossible to choose 'C'.
[Test Case 1]
choice
prompt "Choose one, but how to choose C?"
config A
bool "A"
config B
bool "B"
config C
bool "C"
depends on A
endchoice
Hence, Kconfig shows the following error message:
Kconfig:1:error: recursive dependency detected!
Kconfig:1: choice <choice> contains symbol C
Kconfig:10: symbol C is part of choice A
Kconfig:4: symbol A is part of choice <choice>
For a resolution refer to Documentation/kbuild/kconfig-language.rst
subsection "Kconfig recursive dependency limitations"
However, Kconfig does not report anything for the following similar code:
[Test Case 2]
choice
prompt "Choose one, but how to choose B?"
config A
bool "A"
config B
bool "B"
depends on A
config C
bool "C"
endchoice
This is because menu_finalize() reparents the menu tree when an entry
depends on the preceding one.
With reparenting, the menu tree:
choice
|- A
|- B
\- C
... will be transformed into the following structure:
choice
|- A
| \- B
\- C
Consequently, Kconfig considers only 'A' and 'C' as choice members.
This behavior is awkward. The second test case should be an error too.
This commit stops reparenting inside a choice.

Commit c8fb7d7e48d1 ("kconfig: fix broken dependency in randconfig-
generated .config") fixed the issue, but I did not add a test case.
This commit adds a test case that emulates the reported situation.
The test would fail without c8fb7d7e48d1.
To handle the choice "choose X", FOO must be calculated beforehand.
FOO depends on A, which is a member of another choice "choose A or B".
Kconfig _temporarily_ assumes the value of A to proceed. The choice
"choose A or B" will be shuffled later, but the result may or may not
meet "FOO depends on A". Kconfig should invalidate the symbol values
and recompute them.
In the real example for ARCH=arm64, the choice "Instrumentation type"
needs the value of CPU_BIG_ENDIAN. The choice "Endianness" will be
shuffled later.
Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>
Since commit 3b9a19e08960 ("kconfig: loop as long as we changed some
symbols in randconfig"), conf_set_all_new_symbols() is repeated until
there is no more choice left to be shuffled. The motivation was to
shuffle a choice nested in another choice.
Although commit 09d5873e4d1f ("kconfig: allow only 'config', 'comment',
and 'if' inside 'choice'") disallowed the nested choice structure,
we must still keep 3b9a19e08960 because there are still cases where
conf_set_all_new_symbols() must iterate.
scripts/kconfig/tests/choice_randomize/Kconfig is the test case.
The second choice depends on 'B', which is the member of the first
choice.
With 3b9a19e08960 reverted, we would never get the pattern specified by
scripts/kconfig/tests/choice_randomize/expected_config2.
A real example can be found in lib/Kconfig.debug. Without 3b9a19e08960,
the randconfig would not shuffle the "Compressed Debug information"
choice, which depends on DEBUG_INFO, which is derived from another
choice "Debug information".
My goal is to refactor Kconfig so that randconfig will work more
simply, without using the loop.
For now, let's add a test case to ensure all dependent choices are
shuffled, as it is a somewhat tricky case for the current Kconfig.

I'm sending you the sysctl pull request after following Luis' suggestion to
become a maintainer. If you see that something is missing, get back to me with
how to improve and I'll include your feedback in the following PRs.
Here is a summary of the changes included in this PR:
* New shared repo for sysctl maintenance
* check-sysctl-docs adjustment for API changes by Thomas Weißschuh
This is a non-functional PR. Additional testing is required for the rest of the
pending changes. Future kernel pull requests will include the removal of the
empty elements (sentinels) from sysctl arrays in the kernel/, net/, mm/ and
security/ dirs. After that, the superfluous check for procname == NULL will be
removed. And the push to avoid bloating the kernel as these arrays move out of
kernel/sysctl.c will be completed.
Even though Thomas' changes went into sysctl-next after v6.8-rc5 (3 weeks in
linux-next), I include them as they contained no functional changes and
therefore have little chance of resulting in an error/regression. Finally the
new shared repo is now picked up by linux-next and is the source for upcoming
sysctl changes.

Merge tag 'sysctl-6.9-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sysctl/sysctl
Pull sysctl updates from Joel Granados:
"No functional changes - additional testing is required for the rest of
the pending changes.
- New shared repo for sysctl maintenance
- check-sysctl-docs adjustment for API changes by Thomas Weißschuh"
* tag 'sysctl-6.9-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sysctl/sysctl:
scripts: check-sysctl-docs: handle per-namespace sysctls
ipc: remove linebreaks from arguments of __register_sysctl_table
scripts: check-sysctl-docs: adapt to new API
MAINTAINERS: Update sysctl tree location
Some architectures, like aarch64 ones, need a dtb file to configure the
hardware. The default dtb file can be preloaded from u-boot, but the final
and/or more complete dtb file needs to be able to be loaded later from
rootfs.
Add the possible dtb files to the kernel rpm and mimic Fedora shipping
process, storing the dtb files in the module directory. These dtb files
will be copied to /boot directory by the install scripts, but add fallback
just in case, checking if the content in /boot directory is correct.
Mark the files installed to /boot as %ghost to make sure they will be
removed when the package is uninstalled.
Tested with Fedora Rawhide (x86_64 and aarch64) with dnf and rpm tools.
In addition, fallback was also tested after modifying the install scripts.

When the condition 'sym == NULL' is met, the code will reach the
'next_menu' label regardless of the return value from menu_is_visible().
menu_is_visible() calculates some symbol values as a side-effect, for
instance by calling expr_calc_value(menu->visibility), but all the
symbol values will be calculated eventually.

If the find_fromsym() call fails and returns NULL, the warn() call
will dereference this NULL pointer and cause the program to crash.
This happened when I tried to build with "test_user_copy" module.
With this fix, it prints lots of warnings like this:
WARNING: modpost: lib/test_user_copy: section mismatch in reference: (unknown)+0x4 (section: .text.fixup) -> (unknown) (section: .init.text)

* Changes to FPU handling came in via the main s390 pull request
* Only deliver to the guest the SCLP events that userspace has
requested.
* More virtual vs physical address fixes (only a cleanup since
virtual and physical address spaces are currently the same).
* Fix selftests undefined behavior.
x86:
* Fix a restriction that the guest can't program a PMU event whose
encoding matches an architectural event that isn't included in the
guest CPUID. The enumeration of an architectural event only says
that if a CPU supports an architectural event, then the event can be
programmed *using the architectural encoding*. The enumeration does
NOT say anything about the encoding when the CPU doesn't report support
the event *in general*. It might support it, and it might support it
using the same encoding that made it into the architectural PMU spec.
* Fix a variety of bugs in KVM's emulation of RDPMC (more details on
individual commits) and add a selftest to verify KVM correctly emulates
RDMPC, counter availability, and a variety of other PMC-related
behaviors that depend on guest CPUID and therefore are easier to
validate with selftests than with custom guests (aka kvm-unit-tests).
* Zero out PMU state on AMD if the virtual PMU is disabled, it does not
cause any bug but it wastes time in various cases where KVM would check
if a PMC event needs to be synthesized.
* Optimize triggering of emulated events, with a nice ~10% performance
improvement in VM-Exit microbenchmarks when a vPMU is exposed to the
guest.
* Tighten the check for "PMI in guest" to reduce false positives if an NMI
arrives in the host while KVM is handling an IRQ VM-Exit.
* Fix a bug where KVM would report stale/bogus exit qualification information
when exiting to userspace with an internal error exit code.
* Add a VMX flag in /proc/cpuinfo to report 5-level EPT support.
* Rework TDP MMU root unload, free, and alloc to run with mmu_lock held for
read, e.g. to avoid serializing vCPUs when userspace deletes a memslot.
* Tear down TDP MMU page tables at 4KiB granularity (used to be 1GiB). KVM
doesn't support yielding in the middle of processing a zap, and 1GiB
granularity resulted in multi-millisecond lags that are quite impolite
for CONFIG_PREEMPT kernels.
* Allocate write-tracking metadata on-demand to avoid the memory overhead when
a kernel is built with i915 virtualization support but the workloads use
neither shadow paging nor i915 virtualization.
* Explicitly initialize a variety of on-stack variables in the emulator that
triggered KMSAN false positives.
* Fix the debugregs ABI for 32-bit KVM.
* Rework the "force immediate exit" code so that vendor code ultimately decides
how and when to force the exit, which allowed some optimization for both
Intel and AMD.
* Fix a long-standing bug where kvm_has_noapic_vcpu could be left elevated if
vCPU creation ultimately failed, causing extra unnecessary work.
* Cleanup the logic for checking if the currently loaded vCPU is in-kernel.
* Harden against underflowing the active mmu_notifier invalidation
count, so that "bad" invalidations (usually due to bugs elsehwere in the
kernel) are detected earlier and are less likely to hang the kernel.
x86 Xen emulation:
* Overlay pages can now be cached based on host virtual address,
instead of guest physical addresses. This removes the need to
reconfigure and invalidate the cache if the guest changes the
gpa but the underlying host virtual address remains the same.
* When possible, use a single host TSC value when computing the deadline for
Xen timers in order to improve the accuracy of the timer emulation.
* Inject pending upcall events when the vCPU software-enables its APIC to fix
a bug where an upcall can be lost (and to follow Xen's behavior).
* Fall back to the slow path instead of warning if "fast" IRQ delivery of Xen
events fails, e.g. if the guest has aliased xAPIC IDs.
RISC-V:
* Support exception and interrupt handling in selftests
* New self test for RISC-V architectural timer (Sstc extension)
* New extension support (Ztso, Zacas)
* Support userspace emulation of random number seed CSRs.
ARM:
* Infrastructure for building KVM's trap configuration based on the
architectural features (or lack thereof) advertised in the VM's ID
registers
* Support for mapping vfio-pci BARs as Normal-NC (vaguely similar to
x86's WC) at stage-2, improving the performance of interacting with
assigned devices that can tolerate it
* Conversion of KVM's representation of LPIs to an xarray, utilized to
address serialization some of the serialization on the LPI injection
path
* Support for _architectural_ VHE-only systems, advertised through the
absence of FEAT_E2H0 in the CPU's ID register
* Miscellaneous cleanups, fixes, and spelling corrections to KVM and

LoongArch:
* Set reserved bits as zero in CPUCFG.
* Start SW timer only when vcpu is blocking.
* Do not restart SW timer when it is expired.
* Remove unnecessary CSR register saving during enter guest.
* Misc cleanups and fixes as usual.
Generic:
* cleanup Kconfig by removing CONFIG_HAVE_KVM, which was basically always
true on all architectures except MIPS (where Kconfig determines the
available depending on CPU capabilities). It is replaced either by
an architecture-dependent symbol for MIPS, and IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_KVM)
everywhere else.
* Factor common "select" statements in common code instead of requiring
each architecture to specify it
* Remove thoroughly obsolete APIs from the uapi headers.
* Move architecture-dependent stuff to uapi/asm/kvm.h
* Always flush the async page fault workqueue when a work item is being
removed, especially during vCPU destruction, to ensure that there are no
workers running in KVM code when all references to KVM-the-module are gone,
i.e. to prevent a very unlikely use-after-free if kvm.ko is unloaded.
* Grab a reference to the VM's mm_struct in the async #PF worker itself instead
of gifting the worker a reference, so that there's no need to remember
to *conditionally* clean up after the worker.
Selftests:
* Reduce boilerplate especially when utilize selftest TAP infrastructure.
* Add basic smoke tests for SEV and SEV-ES, along with a pile of library
support for handling private/encrypted/protected memory.
* Fix benign bugs where tests neglect to close() guest_memfd files.

from hotplugged memory rather than only from main memory. Series
"implement "memmap on memory" feature on s390".
- More folio conversions from Matthew Wilcox in the series
"Convert memcontrol charge moving to use folios"
"mm: convert mm counter to take a folio"
- Chengming Zhou has optimized zswap's rbtree locking, providing
significant reductions in system time and modest but measurable
reductions in overall runtimes. The series is "mm/zswap: optimize the
scalability of zswap rb-tree".
- Chengming Zhou has also provided the series "mm/zswap: optimize zswap
lru list" which provides measurable runtime benefits in some
swap-intensive situations.
- And Chengming Zhou further optimizes zswap in the series "mm/zswap:
optimize for dynamic zswap_pools". Measured improvements are modest.
- zswap cleanups and simplifications from Yosry Ahmed in the series "mm:
zswap: simplify zswap_swapoff()".
- In the series "Add DAX ABI for memmap_on_memory", Vishal Verma has
contributed several DAX cleanups as well as adding a sysfs tunable to
control the memmap_on_memory setting when the dax device is hotplugged
as system memory.
- Johannes Weiner has added the large series "mm: zswap: cleanups",
which does that.
- More DAMON work from SeongJae Park in the series
"mm/damon: make DAMON debugfs interface deprecation unignorable"
"selftests/damon: add more tests for core functionalities and corner cases"
"Docs/mm/damon: misc readability improvements"
"mm/damon: let DAMOS feeds and tame/auto-tune itself"
- In the series "mm/mempolicy: weighted interleave mempolicy and sysfs
extension" Rakie Kim has developed a new mempolicy interleaving policy
wherein we allocate memory across nodes in a weighted fashion rather
than uniformly. This is beneficial in heterogeneous memory environments
appearing with CXL.
- Christophe Leroy has contributed some cleanup and consolidation work
against the ARM pagetable dumping code in the series "mm: ptdump:
Refactor CONFIG_DEBUG_WX and check_wx_pages debugfs attribute".
- Luis Chamberlain has added some additional xarray selftesting in the
series "test_xarray: advanced API multi-index tests".
- Muhammad Usama Anjum has reworked the selftest code to make its
human-readable output conform to the TAP ("Test Anything Protocol")
format. Amongst other things, this opens up the use of third-party
tools to parse and process out selftesting results.
- Ryan Roberts has added fork()-time PTE batching of THP ptes in the
series "mm/memory: optimize fork() with PTE-mapped THP". Mainly
targeted at arm64, this significantly speeds up fork() when the process
has a large number of pte-mapped folios.
- David Hildenbrand also gets in on the THP pte batching game in his
series "mm/memory: optimize unmap/zap with PTE-mapped THP". It
implements batching during munmap() and other pte teardown situations.
The microbenchmark improvements are nice.
- And in the series "Transparent Contiguous PTEs for User Mappings" Ryan
Roberts further utilizes arm's pte's contiguous bit ("contpte
mappings"). Kernel build times on arm64 improved nicely. Ryan's series
"Address some contpte nits" provides some followup work.
- In the series "mm/hugetlb: Restore the reservation" Breno Leitao has
fixed an obscure hugetlb race which was causing unnecessary page faults.
He has also added a reproducer under the selftest code.
- In the series "selftests/mm: Output cleanups for the compaction test",
Mark Brown did what the title claims.
- Kinsey Ho has added the series "mm/mglru: code cleanup and refactoring".
- Even more zswap material from Nhat Pham. The series "fix and extend
zswap kselftests" does as claimed.
- In the series "Introduce cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() to fix DAX
regression" Mathieu Desnoyers has cleaned up and fixed rather a mess in
our handling of DAX on archiecctures which have virtually aliasing data
caches. The arm architecture is the main beneficiary.
- Lokesh Gidra's series "per-vma locks in userfaultfd" provides dramatic
improvements in worst-case mmap_lock hold times during certain
userfaultfd operations.
- Some page_owner enhancements and maintenance work from Oscar Salvador
in his series
"page_owner: print stacks and their outstanding allocations"
"page_owner: Fixup and cleanup"
- Uladzislau Rezki has contributed some vmalloc scalability improvements
in his series "Mitigate a vmap lock contention". It realizes a 12x
improvement for a certain microbenchmark.
- Some kexec/crash cleanup work from Baoquan He in the series "Split
crash out from kexec and clean up related config items".
- Some zsmalloc maintenance work from Chengming Zhou in the series
"mm/zsmalloc: fix and optimize objects/page migration"
"mm/zsmalloc: some cleanup for get/set_zspage_mapping()"
- Zi Yan has taught the MM to perform compaction on folios larger than
order=0. This a step along the path to implementaton of the merging of

Merge tag 'mm-stable-2024-03-13-20-04' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm
Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- Sumanth Korikkar has taught s390 to allocate hotplug-time page frames
from hotplugged memory rather than only from main memory. Series
"implement "memmap on memory" feature on s390".
- More folio conversions from Matthew Wilcox in the series
"Convert memcontrol charge moving to use folios"
"mm: convert mm counter to take a folio"
- Chengming Zhou has optimized zswap's rbtree locking, providing
significant reductions in system time and modest but measurable
reductions in overall runtimes. The series is "mm/zswap: optimize the
scalability of zswap rb-tree".
- Chengming Zhou has also provided the series "mm/zswap: optimize zswap
lru list" which provides measurable runtime benefits in some
swap-intensive situations.
- And Chengming Zhou further optimizes zswap in the series "mm/zswap:
optimize for dynamic zswap_pools". Measured improvements are modest.
- zswap cleanups and simplifications from Yosry Ahmed in the series
"mm: zswap: simplify zswap_swapoff()".
- In the series "Add DAX ABI for memmap_on_memory", Vishal Verma has
contributed several DAX cleanups as well as adding a sysfs tunable to
control the memmap_on_memory setting when the dax device is
hotplugged as system memory.
- Johannes Weiner has added the large series "mm: zswap: cleanups",
which does that.
- More DAMON work from SeongJae Park in the series
"mm/damon: make DAMON debugfs interface deprecation unignorable"
"selftests/damon: add more tests for core functionalities and corner cases"
"Docs/mm/damon: misc readability improvements"
"mm/damon: let DAMOS feeds and tame/auto-tune itself"
- In the series "mm/mempolicy: weighted interleave mempolicy and sysfs
extension" Rakie Kim has developed a new mempolicy interleaving
policy wherein we allocate memory across nodes in a weighted fashion
rather than uniformly. This is beneficial in heterogeneous memory
environments appearing with CXL.
- Christophe Leroy has contributed some cleanup and consolidation work
against the ARM pagetable dumping code in the series "mm: ptdump:
Refactor CONFIG_DEBUG_WX and check_wx_pages debugfs attribute".
- Luis Chamberlain has added some additional xarray selftesting in the
series "test_xarray: advanced API multi-index tests".
- Muhammad Usama Anjum has reworked the selftest code to make its
human-readable output conform to the TAP ("Test Anything Protocol")
format. Amongst other things, this opens up the use of third-party
tools to parse and process out selftesting results.
- Ryan Roberts has added fork()-time PTE batching of THP ptes in the
series "mm/memory: optimize fork() with PTE-mapped THP". Mainly
targeted at arm64, this significantly speeds up fork() when the
process has a large number of pte-mapped folios.
- David Hildenbrand also gets in on the THP pte batching game in his
series "mm/memory: optimize unmap/zap with PTE-mapped THP". It
implements batching during munmap() and other pte teardown
situations. The microbenchmark improvements are nice.
- And in the series "Transparent Contiguous PTEs for User Mappings"
Ryan Roberts further utilizes arm's pte's contiguous bit ("contpte
mappings"). Kernel build times on arm64 improved nicely. Ryan's
series "Address some contpte nits" provides some followup work.
- In the series "mm/hugetlb: Restore the reservation" Breno Leitao has
fixed an obscure hugetlb race which was causing unnecessary page
faults. He has also added a reproducer under the selftest code.
- In the series "selftests/mm: Output cleanups for the compaction
test", Mark Brown did what the title claims.
- Kinsey Ho has added the series "mm/mglru: code cleanup and
refactoring".
- Even more zswap material from Nhat Pham. The series "fix and extend
zswap kselftests" does as claimed.
- In the series "Introduce cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() to fix DAX
regression" Mathieu Desnoyers has cleaned up and fixed rather a mess
in our handling of DAX on archiecctures which have virtually aliasing
data caches. The arm architecture is the main beneficiary.
- Lokesh Gidra's series "per-vma locks in userfaultfd" provides
dramatic improvements in worst-case mmap_lock hold times during
certain userfaultfd operations.
- Some page_owner enhancements and maintenance work from Oscar Salvador
in his series
"page_owner: print stacks and their outstanding allocations"
"page_owner: Fixup and cleanup"
- Uladzislau Rezki has contributed some vmalloc scalability
improvements in his series "Mitigate a vmap lock contention". It
realizes a 12x improvement for a certain microbenchmark.
- Some kexec/crash cleanup work from Baoquan He in the series "Split
crash out from kexec and clean up related config items".
- Some zsmalloc maintenance work from Chengming Zhou in the series
"mm/zsmalloc: fix and optimize objects/page migration"
"mm/zsmalloc: some cleanup for get/set_zspage_mapping()"
- Zi Yan has taught the MM to perform compaction on folios larger than
order=0. This a step along the path to implementaton of the merging
of large anonymous folios. The series is named "Enable >0 order folio
memory compaction".
- Christoph Hellwig has done quite a lot of cleanup work in the
pagecache writeback code in his series "convert write_cache_pages()
to an iterator".
- Some modest hugetlb cleanups and speedups in Vishal Moola's series
"Handle hugetlb faults under the VMA lock".

Core & protocols
----------------
- Large effort by Eric to lower rtnl_lock pressure and remove locks:
- Make commonly used parts of rtnetlink (address, route dumps etc.)
lockless, protected by RCU instead of rtnl_lock.
- Add a netns exit callback which already holds rtnl_lock,
allowing netns exit to take rtnl_lock once in the core
instead of once for each driver / callback.
- Remove locks / serialization in the socket diag interface.
- Remove 6 calls to synchronize_rcu() while holding rtnl_lock.
- Remove the dev_base_lock, depend on RCU where necessary.
- Support busy polling on a per-epoll context basis. Poll length
and budget parameters can be set independently of system defaults.
- Introduce struct net_hotdata, to make sure read-mostly global config
variables fit in as few cache lines as possible.
- Add optional per-nexthop statistics to ease monitoring / debug
of ECMP imbalance problems.
- Support TCP_NOTSENT_LOWAT in MPTCP.
- Ensure that IPv6 temporary addresses' preferred lifetimes are long
enough, compared to other configured lifetimes, and at least 2 sec.
- Support forwarding of ICMP Error messages in IPSec, per RFC 4301.
- Add support for the independent control state machine for bonding
per IEEE 802.1AX-2008 5.4.15 in addition to the existing coupled
control state machine.
- Add "network ID" to MCTP socket APIs to support hosts with multiple
disjoint MCTP networks.
- Re-use the mono_delivery_time skbuff bit for packets which user
space wants to be sent at a specified time. Maintain the timing
information while traversing veth links, bridge etc.
- Take advantage of MSG_SPLICE_PAGES for RxRPC DATA and ACK packets.
- Simplify many places iterating over netdevs by using an xarray
instead of a hash table walk (hash table remains in place, for
use on fastpaths).
- Speed up scanning for expired routes by keeping a dedicated list.
- Speed up "generic" XDP by trying harder to avoid large allocations.
- Support attaching arbitrary metadata to netconsole messages.
Things we sprinkled into general kernel code
--------------------------------------------
- Enforce VM_IOREMAP flag and range in ioremap_page_range and introduce
VM_SPARSE kind and vm_area_[un]map_pages (used by bpf_arena).
- Rework selftest harness to enable the use of the full range of
ksft exit code (pass, fail, skip, xfail, xpass).
Netfilter
---------
- Allow userspace to define a table that is exclusively owned by a daemon
(via netlink socket aliveness) without auto-removing this table when
the userspace program exits. Such table gets marked as orphaned and
a restarting management daemon can re-attach/regain ownership.
- Speed up element insertions to nftables' concatenated-ranges set type.
Compact a few related data structures.
BPF
---
- Add BPF token support for delegating a subset of BPF subsystem
functionality from privileged system-wide daemons such as systemd
through special mount options for userns-bound BPF fs to a trusted
& unprivileged application.
- Introduce bpf_arena which is sparse shared memory region between BPF
program and user space where structures inside the arena can have
pointers to other areas of the arena, and pointers work seamlessly
for both user-space programs and BPF programs.
- Introduce may_goto instruction that is a contract between the verifier
and the program. The verifier allows the program to loop assuming it's
behaving well, but reserves the right to terminate it.
- Extend the BPF verifier to enable static subprog calls in spin lock
critical sections.
- Support registration of struct_ops types from modules which helps
projects like fuse-bpf that seeks to implement a new struct_ops type.
- Add support for retrieval of cookies for perf/kprobe multi links.
- Support arbitrary TCP SYN cookie generation / validation in the TC
layer with BPF to allow creating SYN flood handling in BPF firewalls.
- Add code generation to inline the bpf_kptr_xchg() helper which
improves performance when stashing/popping the allocated BPF objects.
Wireless
--------
- Add SPP (signaling and payload protected) AMSDU support.
- Support wider bandwidth OFDMA, as required for EHT operation.
Driver API
----------
- Major overhaul of the Energy Efficient Ethernet internals to support
new link modes (2.5GE, 5GE), share more code between drivers
(especially those using phylib), and encourage more uniform behavior.
Convert and clean up drivers.
- Define an API for querying per netdev queue statistics from drivers.
- IPSec: account in global stats for fully offloaded sessions.
- Create a concept of Ethernet PHY Packages at the Device Tree level,
to allow parameterizing the existing PHY package code.
- Enable Rx hashing (RSS) on GTP protocol fields.
Misc
----
- Improvements and refactoring all over networking selftests.
- Create uniform module aliases for TC classifiers, actions,
and packet schedulers to simplify creating modprobe policies.
- Address all missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() warnings in networking.
- Extend the Netlink descriptions in YAML to cover message encapsulation
or "Netlink polymorphism", where interpretation of nested attributes
depends on link type, classifier type or some other "class type".

Merge tag 'net-next-6.9' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next
Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
"Core & protocols:
- Large effort by Eric to lower rtnl_lock pressure and remove locks:
- Make commonly used parts of rtnetlink (address, route dumps
etc) lockless, protected by RCU instead of rtnl_lock.
- Add a netns exit callback which already holds rtnl_lock,
allowing netns exit to take rtnl_lock once in the core instead
of once for each driver / callback.
- Remove locks / serialization in the socket diag interface.
- Remove 6 calls to synchronize_rcu() while holding rtnl_lock.
- Remove the dev_base_lock, depend on RCU where necessary.
- Support busy polling on a per-epoll context basis. Poll length and
budget parameters can be set independently of system defaults.
- Introduce struct net_hotdata, to make sure read-mostly global
config variables fit in as few cache lines as possible.
- Add optional per-nexthop statistics to ease monitoring / debug of
ECMP imbalance problems.
- Support TCP_NOTSENT_LOWAT in MPTCP.
- Ensure that IPv6 temporary addresses' preferred lifetimes are long
enough, compared to other configured lifetimes, and at least 2 sec.
- Support forwarding of ICMP Error messages in IPSec, per RFC 4301.
- Add support for the independent control state machine for bonding
per IEEE 802.1AX-2008 5.4.15 in addition to the existing coupled
control state machine.
- Add "network ID" to MCTP socket APIs to support hosts with multiple
disjoint MCTP networks.
- Re-use the mono_delivery_time skbuff bit for packets which user
space wants to be sent at a specified time. Maintain the timing
information while traversing veth links, bridge etc.
- Take advantage of MSG_SPLICE_PAGES for RxRPC DATA and ACK packets.
- Simplify many places iterating over netdevs by using an xarray
instead of a hash table walk (hash table remains in place, for use
on fastpaths).
- Speed up scanning for expired routes by keeping a dedicated list.
- Speed up "generic" XDP by trying harder to avoid large allocations.
- Support attaching arbitrary metadata to netconsole messages.
Things we sprinkled into general kernel code:
- Enforce VM_IOREMAP flag and range in ioremap_page_range and
introduce VM_SPARSE kind and vm_area_[un]map_pages (used by
bpf_arena).
- Rework selftest harness to enable the use of the full range of ksft
exit code (pass, fail, skip, xfail, xpass).
Netfilter:
- Allow userspace to define a table that is exclusively owned by a
daemon (via netlink socket aliveness) without auto-removing this
table when the userspace program exits. Such table gets marked as
orphaned and a restarting management daemon can re-attach/regain
ownership.
- Speed up element insertions to nftables' concatenated-ranges set
type. Compact a few related data structures.
BPF:
- Add BPF token support for delegating a subset of BPF subsystem
functionality from privileged system-wide daemons such as systemd
through special mount options for userns-bound BPF fs to a trusted
& unprivileged application.
- Introduce bpf_arena which is sparse shared memory region between
BPF program and user space where structures inside the arena can
have pointers to other areas of the arena, and pointers work
seamlessly for both user-space programs and BPF programs.
- Introduce may_goto instruction that is a contract between the
verifier and the program. The verifier allows the program to loop
assuming it's behaving well, but reserves the right to terminate
it.
- Extend the BPF verifier to enable static subprog calls in spin lock
critical sections.
- Support registration of struct_ops types from modules which helps
projects like fuse-bpf that seeks to implement a new struct_ops
type.
- Add support for retrieval of cookies for perf/kprobe multi links.
- Support arbitrary TCP SYN cookie generation / validation in the TC
layer with BPF to allow creating SYN flood handling in BPF
firewalls.
- Add code generation to inline the bpf_kptr_xchg() helper which
improves performance when stashing/popping the allocated BPF
objects.
Wireless:
- Add SPP (signaling and payload protected) AMSDU support.
- Support wider bandwidth OFDMA, as required for EHT operation.
Driver API:
- Major overhaul of the Energy Efficient Ethernet internals to
support new link modes (2.5GE, 5GE), share more code between
drivers (especially those using phylib), and encourage more
uniform behavior. Convert and clean up drivers.
- Define an API for querying per netdev queue statistics from
drivers.
- IPSec: account in global stats for fully offloaded sessions.
- Create a concept of Ethernet PHY Packages at the Device Tree level,
to allow parameterizing the existing PHY package code.
- Enable Rx hashing (RSS) on GTP protocol fields.
Misc:
- Improvements and refactoring all over networking selftests.
- Create uniform module aliases for TC classifiers, actions, and
packet schedulers to simplify creating modprobe policies.
- Address all missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() warnings in networking.
- Extend the Netlink descriptions in YAML to cover message
encapsulation or "Netlink polymorphism", where interpretation of
nested attributes depends on link type, classifier type or some
other "class type".
