Here is the big set of driver core changes for 6.11-rc1.
Lots of stuff in here, with not a huge diffstat, but apis are evolving
which required lots of files to be touched. Highlights of the changes
in here are:
- platform remove callback api final fixups (Uwe took many releases to
get here, finally!)
- Rust bindings for basic firmware apis and initial driver-core
interactions. It's not all that useful for a "write a whole driver
in rust" type of thing, but the firmware bindings do help out the
phy rust drivers, and the driver core bindings give a solid base on
which others can start their work. There is still a long way to go
here before we have a multitude of rust drivers being added, but
it's a great first step.
- driver core const api changes. This reached across all bus types,
and there are some fix-ups for some not-common bus types that
linux-next and 0-day testing shook out. This work is being done to
help make the rust bindings more safe, as well as the C code, moving
toward the end-goal of allowing us to put driver structures into
read-only memory. We aren't there yet, but are getting closer.
- minor devres cleanups and fixes found by code inspection
- arch_topology minor changes
- other minor driver core cleanups
All of these have been in linux-next for a very long time with no
reported problems.

In the match() callback, the struct device_driver * should not be
changed, so change the function callback to be a const *. This is one
step of many towards making the driver core safe to have struct
device_driver in read-only memory.
Because the match() callback is in all busses, all busses are modified
to handle this properly. This does entail switching some container_of()
calls to container_of_const() to properly handle the constant *.
For some busses, like PCI and USB and HV, the const * is cast away in
the match callback as those busses do want to modify those structures at
this point in time (they have a local lock in the driver structure.)
That will have to be changed in the future if they wish to have their
struct device * in read-only-memory.

kexec on pseries disables AIL (reloc_on_exc), required for scv
instruction support, before other CPUs have been shut down. This means
they can execute scv instructions after AIL is disabled, which causes an
interrupt at an unexpected entry location that crashes the kernel.
Change the kexec sequence to disable AIL after other CPUs have been
brought down.
As a refresher, the real-mode scv interrupt vector is 0x17000, and the
fixed-location head code probably couldn't easily deal with implementing
such high addresses so it was just decided not to support that interrupt
at all.

PPC64 IOMMU API defines iommu_table_group_ops which handles DMA
windows for PEs, their ownership transfer, create/set/unset the TCE
tables for the Dynamic DMA wundows(DDW). VFIOS uses these APIs for
support on POWER.
The commit 9d67c9433509 ("powerpc/iommu: Add "borrowing"
iommu_table_group_ops") implemented partial support for this API with
"borrow" mechanism wherein the DMA windows if created already by the
host driver, they would be available for VFIO to use. Also, it didn't
have the support to control/modify the window size or the IO page
size.
The current patch implements all the necessary iommu_table_group_ops
APIs there by avoiding the "borrrowing". So, just the way it is on the
PowerNV platform, with this patch the iommu table group ownership is
transferred to the VFIO PPC subdriver, the iommu table, DMA windows
creation/deletion all driven through the APIs.
The pSeries uses the query-pe-dma-window, create-pe-dma-window and
reset-pe-dma-window RTAS calls for DMA window creation, deletion and
reset to defaul. The RTAs calls do show some minor differences to the
way things are to be handled on the pSeries which are listed below.
* On pSeries, the default DMA window size is "fixed" cannot be custom
sized as requested by the user. For non-SRIOV VFs, It is fixed at 2GB
and for SRIOV VFs, its variable sized based on the capacity assigned
to it during the VF assignment to the LPAR. So, for the default DMA
window alone the size if requested less than tce32_size, the smaller
size is enforced using the iommu table->it_size.
* The DMA start address for 32-bit window is 0, and for the 64-bit
window in case of PowerNV is hardcoded to TVE select (bit 59) at 512PiB
offset. This address is returned at the time of create_table() API call
(even before the window is created), the subsequent set_window() call
actually opens the DMA window. On pSeries, the DMA start address for
32-bit window is known from the 'ibm,dma-window' DT property. However,
the 64-bit window start address is not known until the create-pe-dma
RTAS call is made. So, the create_table() which returns the DMA window
start address actually opens the DMA window and returns the DMA start
address as returned by the Hypervisor for the create-pe-dma RTAS call.
* The reset-pe-dma RTAS call resets the DMA windows and restores the
default DMA window, however it does not clear the TCE table entries
if there are any. In case of ownership transfer from platform domain
which used direct mapping, the patch chooses remove-pe-dma instead of
reset-pe for the 64-bit window intentionally so that the
clear_dma_window() is called.
Other than the DMA window management changes mentioned above, the
patch also brings back the userspace view for the single level TCE
as it existed before commit 090bad39b237a ("powerpc/powernv: Add
indirect levels to it_userspace") along with the relavent
refactoring.

This patch basically brings consistency with PowerNV approach
to use the first freely available iommu table when the default
window is removed.
The pSeries iommu code convention has been that the table[0] is
for the default 32 bit DMA window and the table[1] is for the
64 bit DDW.
With VFs having only 1 DMA window, the default has to be removed
for creating the larger DMA window. The existing code uses the
table[1] for that, while marking the table[0] as NULL. This is
fine as long as the host driver itself uses the device.
For the VFIO user, on pSeries there is no way to skip table[0]
as the VFIO subdriver uses the first freely available table.
The window 0, when created as 64-bit DDW in that context would
still be on table[0], as the maximum number of windows is 1.
This won't have any impact for the host driver as the table is
fetched from the device's iommu_table_base.

VAS allocate, modify and deallocate HCALLs returns
H_LONG_BUSY_ORDER_1_MSEC or H_LONG_BUSY_ORDER_10_MSEC for busy
delay and expects OS to reissue HCALL after that delay. But using
msleep() will often sleep at least 20 msecs even though the
hypervisor suggests OS reissue these HCALLs after 1 or 10msecs.
The open and close VAS window functions hold mutex and then issue
these HCALLs. So these operations can take longer than the
necessary when multiple threads issue open or close window APIs
simultaneously, especially might affect the performance in the
case of repeat open/close APIs for each compression request.
Multiple tasks can open / close VAS windows at the same time
which depends on the available VAS credits. For example, 240
cores system provides 4800 VAS credits. It means 4800 tasks can
execute open VAS windows HCALLs with the mutex. Since each
msleep() will often sleep more than 20 msecs, some tasks are
waiting more than 120 secs to acquire mutex. It can cause hung
traces for these tasks in dmesg due to mutex contention around
open/close HCALLs.
Instead of msleep(), use usleep_range() to ensure sleep with
the expected value before issuing HCALL again. So since each
task sleep 10 msecs maximum, this patch allow more tasks can
issue open/close VAS calls without any hung traces in the
dmesg.

In the current design, a numa-node is made online only if that node is
attached to cpu/memory. With this design, if any PCI/IO device is found
to be attached to a numa-node which is not online then the numa-node
id of the corresponding PCI/IO device is set to NUMA_NO_NODE(-1). This
design may negatively impact the performance of PCIe device if the
numa-node assigned to PCIe device is -1 because in such case we may not
be able to accurately calculate the distance between two nodes.
The multi-controller NVMe PCIe disk has an issue with calculating the
node distance if the PCIe NVMe controller is attached to a PCI host
bridge which has numa-node id value set to NUMA_NO_NODE. This patch
helps fix this ensuring that a cpu/memory less numa node is made online
if it's attached to PCI host bridge.

Dynamic DMA Window (DDW) supports TCEs that are backed by 2MB page
size. In most configurations, DDW is big enough to pre-map all of LPAR
memory for IO. Pre-mapping of memory for DMA results in improvements in
IO performance.
Persistent memory, vPMEM, can be assigned to an LPAR as well. vPMEM is
not contiguous with LPAR memory and usually is assigned at high memory
addresses. This makes is not possible to pre-map both vPMEM and LPAR
memory in the same DDW.
For a dedicated adapter this limitation is not an issue. Dedicated
adapters can have both Default DMA window, which is backed by 4K page
size and a DDW backed by 2MB page size TCEs. In this scenario, LPAR
memory is pre-mapped in the DDW. Any DMA going to the vPMEM is routed
via dynamically allocated TCEs in the default window.
The issue arises with SR-IOV adapters. There is only one DMA window -
either Default or DDW. If an LPAR has vPMEM assigned, memory is not
pre-mapped in the DDW since TCEs needs to be allocated for vPMEM as well.
In this case, DDW is created and TCEs are dynamically allocated for both
vPMEM and LPAR memory.
Today, DDW is only used in single mode - direct mapped TCEs or
dynamically mapped TCEs. This enhancement breaks a single DDW in 2
regions -
1. First region to pre-map LPAR memory
2. Second region to dynamically allocate TCEs for IO to vPMEM
The DDW is split only if it is big enough to pre-map complete LPAR
memory and still have some space left to dynamically map vPMEM. Maximum
size possible DDW is created as permitted by the Hypervisor.

For fadump case, passing additional parameters to dump capture kernel
helps in minimizing the memory footprint for it and also provides the
flexibility to disable components/modules, like hugepages, that are
hindering the boot process of the special dump capture environment.
Set up a dedicated parameter area to be passed to the capture kernel.
This area type is defined as RTAS_FADUMP_PARAM_AREA. Sysfs attribute
'/sys/kernel/fadump/bootargs_append' is exported to the userspace to
specify the additional parameters to be passed to the capture kernel

Currently, fadump on pseries assumes a single boot memory region even
though f/w supports more than one boot memory region. Add support for
more boot memory regions to make the implementation flexible for any
enhancements that introduce other region types. For this, rtas memory
structure for fadump is updated to have multiple boot memory regions
instead of just one. Additionally, methods responsible for creating
the fadump memory structure during both the first and second kernel
boot have been modified to take these multiple boot memory regions
into account. Also, a new callback has been added to the fadump_ops
structure to get the maximum boot memory regions supported by the
platform.

We noticed the following nuisance messages during boot process:
vio vio: uevent: failed to send synthetic uevent
vio 4000: uevent: failed to send synthetic uevent
vio 4001: uevent: failed to send synthetic uevent
vio 4002: uevent: failedto send synthetic uevent
vio 4004: uevent: failed to send synthetic uevent
It's caused by either vio_register_device_node() failing to set
dev->of_node or the node is missing a "compatible" property. To match
the definition of modalias in modalias_show(), remove the return of
ENODEV in such cases. The failure messages is also suppressed with this

Due to changes in memory resources caused by either memory hotplug or
online/offline events, the elfcorehdr, which describes the CPUs and
memory of the crashed kernel to the kernel that collects the dump (known
as second/fadump kernel), becomes outdated. Consequently, attempting
dump collection with an outdated elfcorehdr can lead to failed or
inaccurate dump collection.
Memory hotplug or online/offline events is referred as memory add/remove
events in reset of the commit message.
The current solution to address the aforementioned issue is as follows:
Monitor memory add/remove events in userspace using udev rules, and
re-register fadump whenever there are changes in memory resources. This
leads to the creation of a new elfcorehdr with updated system memory
information.
There are several notable issues associated with re-registering fadump
for every memory add/remove events.
1. Bulk memory add/remove events with udev-based fadump re-registration
can lead to race conditions and, more importantly, it creates a wide
window during which fadump is inactive until all memory add/remove
events are settled.
2. Re-registering fadump for every memory add/remove event is
inefficient.
3. The memory for elfcorehdr is allocated based on the memblock regions
available during early boot and remains fixed thereafter. However, if
elfcorehdr is later recreated with additional memblock regions, its
size will increase, potentially leading to memory corruption.
Address the aforementioned challenges by shifting the creation of
elfcorehdr from the first kernel (also referred as the crashed kernel),
where it was created and frequently recreated for every memory
add/remove event, to the fadump kernel. As a result, the elfcorehdr only
needs to be created once, thus eliminating the necessity to re-register
fadump during memory add/remove events.
At present, the first kernel prepares fadump header and stores it in the
fadump reserved area. The fadump header includes the start address of
the elfcorehdr, crashing CPU details, and other relevant information. In
the event of a crash in the first kernel, the second/fadump boots and
accesses the fadump header prepared by the first kernel. It then
performs the following steps in a platform-specific function
[rtas|opal]_fadump_process:
1. Sanity check for fadump header
2. Update CPU notes in elfcorehdr
Along with the above, update the setup_fadump()/fadump.c to create
elfcorehdr and set its address to the global variable elfcorehdr_addr
for the vmcore module to process it in the second/fadump kernel.
Section below outlines the information required to create the elfcorehdr
and the changes made to make it available to the fadump kernel if it's
not already.
To create elfcorehdr, the following crashed kernel information is
required: CPU notes, vmcoreinfo, and memory ranges.
At present, the CPU notes are already prepared in the fadump kernel, so
no changes are needed in that regard. The fadump kernel has access to
all crashed kernel memory regions, including boot memory regions that
are relocated by firmware to fadump reserved areas, so no changes for
that either. However, it is necessary to add new members to the fadump
header, i.e., the 'fadump_crash_info_header' structure, in order to pass
the crashed kernel's vmcoreinfo address and its size to fadump kernel.
In addition to the vmcoreinfo address and size, there are a few other
attributes also added to the fadump_crash_info_header structure.
1. version:
It stores the fadump header version, which is currently set to 1.
This provides flexibility to update the fadump crash info header in
the future without changing the magic number. For each change in the
fadump header, the version will be increased. This will help the
updated kernel determine how to handle kernel dumps from older
kernels. The magic number remains relevant for checking fadump header
corruption.
2. pt_regs_sz/cpu_mask_sz:
Store size of pt_regs and cpu_mask structure of first kernel. These
attributes are used to prevent dump processing if the sizes of
pt_regs or cpu_mask structure differ between the first and fadump
kernels.
Note: if either first/crashed kernel or second/fadump kernel do not have
the changes introduced here then kernel fail to collect the dump and
prints relevant error message on the console.

When there are no options specified for lparstat, it is expected to
give reports since LPAR(Logical Partition) boot.
APP(Available Processor Pool) is an indicator of how many cores in the
shared pool are free to use in Shared Processor LPAR(SPLPAR). APP is
derived using pool_idle_time which is obtained using H_PIC call.
The interval based reports show correct APP value while since boot
report shows very high APP values. This happens because in that case APP
is obtained by dividing pool idle time by LPAR uptime. Since pool idle
time is reported by the PowerVM hypervisor since its boot, it need not
align with LPAR boot.
To fix that export boot pool idle time in lparcfg and powerpc-utils will
use this info to derive APP as below for since boot reports.
APP = (pool idle time - boot pool idle time) / (uptime * timebase)
Results:: Observe APP values.

papr_scm and ndtest share common PDSM payload structs like
nd_papr_pdsm_health. Presently these structs are duplicated across
papr_pdsm.h and ndtest.h header files. Since 'ndtest' is essentially
arch independent and can run on platforms other than PPC64, a way
needs to be deviced to avoid redundancy and duplication of PDSM
structs in future.
So the patch proposes moving the PDSM header from arch/powerpc/include-
-/uapi/ to the generic include/uapi/linux directory. Also, there
are some #defines common between papr_scm and ndtest which are not
exported to the user space. So, move them to a header file which
can be shared across ndtest and papr_scm via newly introduced
include/linux/papr_scm.h.

At the time of LPAR boot up, partition firmware provides Open Firmware
property ibm,dma-window for the PE. This property is provided on the PCI
bus the PE is attached to.
There are execptions where the partition firmware might not provide this
property for the PE at the time of LPAR boot up. One of the scenario is
where the firmware has frozen the PE due to some error condition. This
PE is frozen for 24 hours or unless the whole system is reinitialized.
Within this time frame, if the LPAR is booted, the frozen PE will be
presented to the LPAR but ibm,dma-window property could be missing.
Today, under these circumstances, the LPAR oopses with NULL pointer
dereference, when configuring the PCI bus the PE is attached to.

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()"
