A large update for SMP management:
- Parallel CPU bringup
The reason why people are interested in parallel bringup is to shorten
the (kexec) reboot time of cloud servers to reduce the downtime of the
VM tenants.
The current fully serialized bringup does the following per AP:
1) Prepare callbacks (allocate, intialize, create threads)
2) Kick the AP alive (e.g. INIT/SIPI on x86)
3) Wait for the AP to report alive state
4) Let the AP continue through the atomic bringup
5) Let the AP run the threaded bringup to full online state
There are two significant delays:
#3 The time for an AP to report alive state in start_secondary() on
x86 has been measured in the range between 350us and 3.5ms
depending on vendor and CPU type, BIOS microcode size etc.
#4 The atomic bringup does the microcode update. This has been
measured to take up to ~8ms on the primary threads depending on
the microcode patch size to apply.
On a two socket SKL server with 56 cores (112 threads) the boot CPU
spends on current mainline about 800ms busy waiting for the APs to come
up and apply microcode. That's more than 80% of the actual onlining
procedure.
This can be reduced significantly by splitting the bringup mechanism
into two parts:
1) Run the prepare callbacks and kick the AP alive for each AP which
needs to be brought up.
The APs wake up, do their firmware initialization and run the low
level kernel startup code including microcode loading in parallel
up to the first synchronization point. (#1 and #2 above)
2) Run the rest of the bringup code strictly serialized per CPU
(#3 - #5 above) as it's done today.
Parallelizing that stage of the CPU bringup might be possible in
theory, but it's questionable whether required surgery would be
justified for a pretty small gain.
If the system is large enough the first AP is already waiting at the
first synchronization point when the boot CPU finished the wake-up of
the last AP. That reduces the AP bringup time on that SKL from ~800ms
to ~80ms, i.e. by a factor ~10x.
The actual gain varies wildly depending on the system, CPU, microcode
patch size and other factors. There are some opportunities to reduce
the overhead further, but that needs some deep surgery in the x86 CPU
bringup code.
For now this is only enabled on x86, but the core functionality
obviously works for all SMP capable architectures.
- Enhancements for SMP function call tracing so it is possible to locate
the scheduling and the actual execution points. That allows to measure
IPI delivery time precisely.

cgroup: Documentation: Clarify usage of memory limits
The existing documentation refers to memory.high as the "main mechanism to control memory usage." This seems incorrect to me - memory.high can result in reclaim pressure which simply leads to stalls unless some external component observes and actions on it (e.g. systemd-oomd can be used for this purpose). While this is feasible, users are unaware of this interaction and are led to believe that memory.high alone is an effective mechanism for limiting memory. The documentation should recommend the use of memory.max as the effective way to enforce memory limits - it triggers reclaim and results in OOM kills by itself.

init: improve the name_to_dev_t interface
name_to_dev_t has a very misleading name, that doesn't make clear it should only be used by the early init code, and also has a bad calling convention that doesn't allow returning different kinds of errors. Rename it to early_lookup_bdev to make the use case clear, and return an errno, where -EINVAL means the string could not be parsed, and -ENODEV means it the string was valid, but there was no device found for it. Also stub out the whole call for !CONFIG_BLOCK as all the non-block root cases are always covered in the caller.

cpu/hotplug: Allow "parallel" bringup up to CPUHP_BP_KICK_AP_STATE
There is often significant latency in the early stages of CPU bringup, and time is wasted by waking each CPU (e.g. with SIPI/INIT/INIT on x86) and then waiting for it to respond before moving on to the next. Allow a platform to enable parallel setup which brings all to be onlined CPUs up to the CPUHP_BP_KICK_AP state. While this state advancement on the control CPU (BP) is single-threaded the important part is the last state CPUHP_BP_KICK_AP which wakes the to be onlined CPUs up. This allows the CPUs to run up to the first sychronization point cpuhp_ap_sync_alive() where they wait for the control CPU to release them one by one for the full onlining procedure. This parallelism depends on the CPU hotplug core sync mechanism which ensures that the parallel brought up CPUs wait for release before touching any state which would make the CPU visible to anything outside the hotplug control mechanism. To handle the SMT constraints of X86 correctly the bringup happens in two iterations when CONFIG_HOTPLUG_SMT is enabled. The control CPU brings up the primary SMT threads of each core first, which can load the microcode without the need to rendevouz with the thread siblings. Once that's completed it brings up the secondary SMT threads.

docs nbd: userspace NBD now favors github over sourceforge
While the sourceforge site for userspace NBD still exists, the code repository moved to github several years ago. Then with a recent patch[1], the github landing page contains just as much information as the sourceforge page, so we might as well point to a single location that also provides the code.

modules-6.4-rc1
The summary of the changes for this pull requests is:
* Song Liu's new struct module_memory replacement
* Nick Alcock's MODULE_LICENSE() removal for non-modules
* My cleanups and enhancements to reduce the areas where we vmalloc
module memory for duplicates, and the respective debug code which
proves the remaining vmalloc pressure comes from userspace.
Most of the changes have been in linux-next for quite some time except
the minor fixes I made to check if a module was already loaded
prior to allocating the final module memory with vmalloc and the
respective debug code it introduces to help clarify the issue. Although
the functional change is small it is rather safe as it can only *help*
reduce vmalloc space for duplicates and is confirmed to fix a bootup
issue with over 400 CPUs with KASAN enabled. I don't expect stable
kernels to pick up that fix as the cleanups would have also had to have
been picked up. Folks on larger CPU systems with modules will want to
just upgrade if vmalloc space has been an issue on bootup.
Given the size of this request, here's some more elaborate details
on this pull request.
The functional change change in this pull request is the very first
patch from Song Liu which replaces the struct module_layout with a new
struct module memory. The old data structure tried to put together all
types of supported module memory types in one data structure, the new
one abstracts the differences in memory types in a module to allow each
one to provide their own set of details. This paves the way in the
future so we can deal with them in a cleaner way. If you look at changes
they also provide a nice cleanup of how we handle these different memory
areas in a module. This change has been in linux-next since before the
merge window opened for v6.3 so to provide more than a full kernel cycle
of testing. It's a good thing as quite a bit of fixes have been found
for it.
Jason Baron then made dynamic debug a first class citizen module user by
using module notifier callbacks to allocate / remove module specific
dynamic debug information.
Nick Alcock has done quite a bit of work cross-tree to remove module
license tags from things which cannot possibly be module at my request
so to:
a) help him with his longer term tooling goals which require a
deterministic evaluation if a piece a symbol code could ever be
part of a module or not. But quite recently it is has been made
clear that tooling is not the only one that would benefit.
Disambiguating symbols also helps efforts such as live patching,
kprobes and BPF, but for other reasons and R&D on this area
is active with no clear solution in sight.
b) help us inch closer to the now generally accepted long term goal
of automating all the MODULE_LICENSE() tags from SPDX license tags
In so far as a) is concerned, although module license tags are a no-op
for non-modules, tools which would want create a mapping of possible
modules can only rely on the module license tag after the commit

Driver core changes for 6.4-rc1
Here is the large set of driver core changes for 6.4-rc1. Once again, a busy development cycle, with lots of changes happening in the driver core in the quest to be able to move "struct bus" and "struct class" into read-only memory, a task now complete with these changes. This will make the future rust interactions with the driver core more "provably correct" as well as providing more obvious lifetime rules for all busses and classes in the kernel. The changes required for this did touch many individual classes and busses as many callbacks were changed to take const * parameters instead. All of these changes have been submitted to the various subsystem maintainers, giving them plenty of time to review, and most of them actually did so. Other than those changes, included in here are a small set of other things: - kobject logging improvements - cacheinfo improvements and updates - obligatory fw_devlink updates and fixes - documentation updates - device property cleanups and const * changes - firwmare loader dependency fixes.

There are a number of major cleanups in ext4 this cycle:
* The data=journal writepath has been significantly cleaned up and
simplified, and reduces a large number of data=journal special cases
by Jan Kara.
* Ojaswin Muhoo has replaced linked list used to track extents that
have been used for inode preallocation with a red-black tree in the
multi-block allocator. This improves performance for workloads
which do a large number of random allocating writes.
* Thanks to Kemeng Shi for a lot of cleanup and bug fixes in the
multi-block allocator.
* Matthew wilcox has converted the code paths for reading and writing
ext4 pages to use folios.
* Jason Yan has continued to factor out ext4_fill_super() into smaller
functions for improve ease of maintenance and comprehension.
* Josh Triplett has created an uapi header for ext4 userspace API's.

riscv: Allow to downgrade paging mode from the command line
Add 2 early command line parameters that allow to downgrade satp mode (using the same naming as x86): - "no5lvl": use a 4-level page table (down from sv57 to sv48) - "no4lvl": use a 3-level page table (down from sv57/sv48 to sv39) Note that going through the device tree to get the kernel command line works with ACPI too since the efi stub creates a device tree anyway with the command line. In KASAN kernels, we can't use the libfdt that early in the boot process since we are not ready to execute instrumented functions. So instead of using the "generic" libfdt, we compile our own versions of those functions that are not instrumented and that are prefixed so that they do not conflict with the generic ones. We also need the non-instrumented versions of the string functions and the prefixed versions of memcpy/memmove. This is largely inspired by commit |

New drivers:
- add a driver for the Loongson GPIO controller
- add a driver for the fxl6408 I2C GPIO expander
- add a GPIO module containing code common for Intel Elkhart Lake and
Merrifield platforms
- add a driver for the Intel Elkhart Lake platform reusing the code
from the intel tangier library
GPIOLIB core:
- GPIO ACPI improvements
- simplify gpiochip_add_data_with_keys() fwnode handling
- cleanup header inclusions (remove unneeded ones, order the rest
alphabetically)
- remove duplicate code (reuse krealloc() instead of open-coding it,
drop a duplicated check in gpiod_find_and_request())
- reshuffle the code to remove unnecessary forward declarations
- coding style cleanups and improvements
- add a helper for accessing device fwnodes
- small updates in docs
Driver improvements:
- convert all remaining GPIO irqchip drivers to using immutable
irqchips
- drop unnecessary of_match_ptr() macro expansions
- shrink the code in gpio-merrifield significantly by reusing the
code from gpio-tangier + minor tweaks to the driver code
- remove MODULE_LICENSE() from drivers that can only be built-in
- add device-tree support to gpio-loongson1
- use new regmap features in gpio-104-dio-48e and gpio-pcie-idio-24
- minor tweaks and fixes to gpio-xra1403, gpio-sim, gpio-tegra194,
gpio-omap, gpio-aspeed, gpio-raspberrypi-exp
- shrink code in gpio-ich and gpio-pxa
- Kconfig tweak for gpio-pmic-eic-sprd"

Commit volume in documentation is relatively low this time, but there is
still a fair amount going on, including:
- Reorganizing the architecture-specific documentation under
Documentation/arch. This makes the structure match the source directory
and helps to clean up the mess that is the top-level Documentation
directory a bit. This work creates the new directory and moves x86 and
most of the less-active architectures there. The current plan is to move
the rest of the architectures in 6.5, with the patches going through the
appropriate subsystem trees.
- Some more Spanish translations and maintenance of the Italian
translation.
- A new "Kernel contribution maturity model" document from Ted.
- A new tutorial on quickly building a trimmed kernel from Thorsten.
Plus the usual set of updates and fixes.

mm: add new KSM process and sysfs knobs
This adds the general_profit KSM sysfs knob and the process profit metric knobs to ksm_stat. 1) expose general_profit metric The documentation mentions a general profit metric, however this metric is not calculated. In addition the formula depends on the size of internal structures, which makes it more difficult for an administrator to make the calculation. Adding the metric for a better user experience. 2) document general_profit sysfs knob 3) calculate ksm process profit metric The ksm documentation mentions the process profit metric and how to calculate it. This adds the calculation of the metric. 4) mm: expose ksm process profit metric in ksm_stat This exposes the ksm process profit metric in /proc/<pid>/ksm_stat. The documentation mentions the formula for the ksm process profit metric, however it does not calculate it. In addition the formula depends on the size of internal structures. So it makes sense to expose it. 5) document new procfs ksm knobs Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20230418051342.1919757-3-shr@devkernel.io Signed-off-by: Stefan Roesch <shr@devkernel.io> Reviewed-by: Bagas Sanjaya <bagasdotme@gmail.com> Acked-by: David Hildenbrand <david@redhat.com> Cc: David Hildenbrand <david@redhat.com> Cc: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Cc: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com> Cc: Rik van Riel <riel@surriel.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> |

module: add debugging auto-load duplicate module support
The finit_module() system call can in the worst case use up to more than twice of a module's size in virtual memory. Duplicate finit_module() system calls are non fatal, however they unnecessarily strain virtual memory during bootup and in the worst case can cause a system to fail to boot. This is only known to currently be an issue on systems with larger number of CPUs. To help debug this situation we need to consider the different sources for finit_module(). Requests from the kernel that rely on module auto-loading, ie, the kernel's *request_module() API, are one source of calls. Although modprobe checks to see if a module is already loaded prior to calling finit_module() there is a small race possible allowing userspace to trigger multiple modprobe calls racing against modprobe and this not seeing the module yet loaded. This adds debugging support to the kernel module auto-loader (*request_module() calls) to easily detect duplicate module requests. To aid with possible bootup failure issues incurred by this, it will converge duplicates requests to a single request. This avoids any possible strain on virtual memory during bootup which could be incurred by duplicate module autoloading requests. Folks debugging virtual memory abuse on bootup can and should enable this to see what pr_warn()s come on, to see if module auto-loading is to blame for their wores. If they see duplicates they can further debug this by enabling the module.enable_dups_trace kernel parameter or by enabling CONFIG_MODULE_DEBUG_AUTOLOAD_DUPS_TRACE. Current evidence seems to point to only a few duplicates for module auto-loading. And so the source for other duplicates creating heavy virtual memory pressure due to larger number of CPUs should becoming from another place (likely udev).

LoongArch: Make WriteCombine configurable for ioremap()
LoongArch maintains cache coherency in hardware, but when paired with LS7A chipsets the WUC attribute (Weak-ordered UnCached, which is similar to WriteCombine) is out of the scope of cache coherency machanism for PCIe devices (this is a PCIe protocol violation, which may be fixed in newer chipsets). This means WUC can only used for write-only memory regions now, so this option is disabled by default, making WUC silently fallback to SUC for ioremap(). You can enable this option if the kernel is ensured to run on hardware without this bug. Kernel parameter writecombine=on/off can be used to override the Kconfig option.
