powerpc/64s: Increase default stack size to 32KB
Here is the big set of tty and serial driver changes for 6.8-rc1.
As usual, Jiri has a bunch of refactoring and cleanups for the tty core
and drivers in here, along with the usual set of rs485 updates (someday
this might work properly...) Along with those, in here are changes for:
- sc16is7xx serial driver updates
- platform driver removal api updates
- amba-pl011 driver updates
- tty driver binding updates
- other small tty/serial driver updates and changes
All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
issues.

There are reports of kernels crashing due to stack overflow while
running OpenShift (Kubernetes). The primary contributor to the stack
usage seems to be openvswitch, which is used by OVN-Kubernetes (based on
OVN (Open Virtual Network)), but NFS also contributes in some stack
traces.
There may be some opportunities to reduce stack usage in the openvswitch
code, but doing so potentially require tradeoffs vs performance, and
also requires testing across architectures.
Looking at stack usage across the kernel (using -fstack-usage), shows
that ppc64le stack frames are on average 50-100% larger than the
equivalent function built for x86-64. Which is not surprising given the
minimum stack frame size is 32 bytes on ppc64le vs 16 bytes on x86-64.
So increase the default stack size to 32KB for the modern 64-bit Book3S
platforms, ie. pseries (virtualised) and powernv (bare metal). That
leaves the older systems like G5s, and the AmigaOne (pasemi) with a 16KB
stack which should be sufficient on those machines.

Pull pci updates from Bjorn Helgaas:
"Enumeration:
- Reserve ECAM so we don't assign it to PCI BARs; this works around
bugs where BIOS included ECAM in a PNP0A03 host bridge window,
didn't reserve it via a PNP0C02 motherboard device, and didn't
allocate space for SR-IOV VF BARs (Bjorn Helgaas)
- Add MMCONFIG/ECAM debug logging (Bjorn Helgaas)
- Rename 'MMCONFIG' to 'ECAM' to match spec usage (Bjorn Helgaas)
- Log device type (Root Port, Switch Port, etc) during enumeration
(Bjorn Helgaas)
- Log bridges before downstream devices so the dmesg order is more
logical (Bjorn Helgaas)
- Log resource names (BAR 0, VF BAR 0, bridge window, etc)
consistently instead of a mix of names and "reg 0x10" (Puranjay
Mohan, Bjorn Helgaas)
- Fix 64GT/s effective data rate calculation to use 1b/1b encoding
rather than the 8b/10b or 128b/130b used by lower rates (Ilpo
Järvinen)
- Use PCI_HEADER_TYPE_* instead of literals in x86, powerpc, SCSI
lpfc (Ilpo Järvinen)
- Clean up open-coded PCIBIOS return code mangling (Ilpo Järvinen)
Resource management:
- Restructure pci_dev_for_each_resource() to avoid computing the
address of an out-of-bounds array element (the bounds check was
performed later so the element was never actually *read*, but it's
nicer to avoid even computing an out-of-bounds address) (Andy
Shevchenko)
Driver binding:
- Convert pci-host-common.c platform .remove() callback to
.remove_new() returning 'void' since it's not useful to return
error codes here (Uwe Kleine-König)
- Convert exynos, keystone, kirin from .remove() to .remove_new(),
which returns void instead of int (Uwe Kleine-König)
- Drop unused struct pci_driver.node member (Mathias Krause)
Virtualization:
- Add ACS quirk for more Zhaoxin Root Ports (LeoLiuoc)
Error handling:
- Log AER errors as "Correctable" (not "Corrected") or
"Uncorrectable" to match spec terminology (Bjorn Helgaas)
- Decode Requester ID when no error info found instead of printing
the raw hex value (Bjorn Helgaas)
Endpoint framework:
- Use a unique test pattern for each BAR in the pci_endpoint_test to
make it easier to debug address translation issues (Niklas Cassel)
Broadcom STB PCIe controller driver:
- Add DT property "brcm,clkreq-mode" and driver support for different
CLKREQ# modes to make ASPM L1.x states possible (Jim Quinlan)
Freescale Layerscape PCIe controller driver:
- Add suspend/resume support for Layerscape LS1043a and LS1021a,
including software-managed PME_Turn_Off and transitions between L0,
L2/L3_Ready Link states (Frank Li)
MediaTek PCIe controller driver:
- Clear MSI interrupt status before handler to avoid missing MSIs
that occur after the handler (qizhong cheng)
MediaTek PCIe Gen3 controller driver:
- Update mediatek-gen3 translation window setup to handle MMIO space
that is not a power of two in size (Jianjun Wang)
Qualcomm PCIe controller driver:
- Increase qcom iommu-map maxItems to accommodate SDX55 (five
entries) and SDM845 (sixteen entries) (Krzysztof Kozlowski)
- Describe qcom,pcie-sc8180x clocks and resets accurately (Krzysztof
Kozlowski)
- Describe qcom,pcie-sm8150 clocks and resets accurately (Krzysztof
Kozlowski)
- Correct the qcom "reset-name" property, previously incorrectly
called "reset-names" (Krzysztof Kozlowski)
- Document qcom,pcie-sm8650, based on qcom,pcie-sm8550 (Neil
Armstrong)
Renesas R-Car PCIe controller driver:
- Replace of_device.h with explicit of.h include to untangle header
usage (Rob Herring)
- Add DT and driver support for optional miniPCIe 1.5v and 3.3v
regulators on KingFisher (Wolfram Sang)
SiFive FU740 PCIe controller driver:
- Convert fu740 CONFIG_PCIE_FU740 dependency from SOC_SIFIVE to
ARCH_SIFIVE (Conor Dooley)
Synopsys DesignWare PCIe controller driver:
- Align iATU mapping for endpoint MSI-X (Niklas Cassel)
- Drop "host_" prefix from struct dw_pcie_host_ops members (Yoshihiro
Shimoda)
- Drop "ep_" prefix from struct dw_pcie_ep_ops members (Yoshihiro
Shimoda)
- Rename struct dw_pcie_ep_ops.func_conf_select() to
.get_dbi_offset() to be more descriptive (Yoshihiro Shimoda)
- Add Endpoint DBI accessors to encapsulate offset lookups (Yoshihiro
Shimoda)
TI J721E PCIe driver:
- Add j721e DT and driver support for 'num-lanes' for devices that
support x1, x2, or x4 Links (Matt Ranostay)
- Add j721e DT compatible strings and driver support for j784s4 (Matt
Ranostay)
- Make TI J721E Kconfig depend on ARCH_K3 since the hardware is
specific to those TI SoC parts (Peter Robinson)
TI Keystone PCIe controller driver:
- Hold power management references to all PHYs while enabling them to
avoid a race when one provides clocks to others (Siddharth
Vadapalli)
Xilinx XDMA PCIe controller driver:
- Remove redundant dev_err(), since platform_get_irq() and
platform_get_irq_byname() already log errors (Yang Li)
- Fix uninitialized symbols in xilinx_pl_dma_pcie_setup_irq()
(Krzysztof Wilczyński)
- Fix xilinx_pl_dma_pcie_init_irq_domain() error return when
irq_domain_add_linear() fails (Harshit Mogalapalli)
MicroSemi Switchtec management driver:
- Do dma_mrpc cleanup during switchtec_pci_remove() to match its devm
ioremapping in switchtec_pci_probe(). Previously the cleanup was
done in stdev_release(), which used stale pointers if stdev->cdev
happened to be open when the PCI device was removed (Daniel
Stodden)
Miscellaneous:
- Convert interrupt terminology from "legacy" to "INTx" to be more
specific and match spec terminology (Damien Le Moal)
- In dw-xdata-pcie, pci_endpoint_test, and vmd, replace usage of
deprecated ida_simple_*() API with ida_alloc() and ida_free()
(Christophe JAILLET)"

...
- Use memdup_array_user() to harden against overflow.
- Unconditionally advertise KVM_CAP_DEVICE_CTRL for all architectures.
- Clean up Kconfigs that all KVM architectures were selecting
- New functionality around "guest_memfd", a new userspace API that
creates an anonymous file and returns a file descriptor that refers
to it. guest_memfd files are bound to their owning virtual machine,
cannot be mapped, read, or written by userspace, and cannot be resized.
guest_memfd files do however support PUNCH_HOLE, which can be used to
switch a memory area between guest_memfd and regular anonymous memory.
- New ioctl KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES allowing userspace to specify
per-page attributes for a given page of guest memory; right now the
only attribute is whether the guest expects to access memory via
guest_memfd or not, which in Confidential SVMs backed by SEV-SNP,
TDX or ARM64 pKVM is checked by firmware or hypervisor that guarantees
confidentiality (AMD PSP, Intel TDX module, or EL2 in the case of pKVM).
x86:
- Support for "software-protected VMs" that can use the new guest_memfd
and page attributes infrastructure. This is mostly useful for testing,
since there is no pKVM-like infrastructure to provide a meaningfully
reduced TCB.
- Fix a relatively benign off-by-one error when splitting huge pages during
CLEAR_DIRTY_LOG.
- Fix a bug where KVM could incorrectly test-and-clear dirty bits in non-leaf
TDP MMU SPTEs if a racing thread replaces a huge SPTE with a non-huge SPTE.
- Use more generic lockdep assertions in paths that don't actually care
about whether the caller is a reader or a writer.
- let Xen guests opt out of having PV clock reported as "based on a stable TSC",
because some of them don't expect the "TSC stable" bit (added to the pvclock
ABI by KVM, but never set by Xen) to be set.
- Revert a bogus, made-up nested SVM consistency check for TLB_CONTROL.
- Advertise flush-by-ASID support for nSVM unconditionally, as KVM always
flushes on nested transitions, i.e. always satisfies flush requests. This
allows running bleeding edge versions of VMware Workstation on top of KVM.
- Sanity check that the CPU supports flush-by-ASID when enabling SEV support.
- On AMD machines with vNMI, always rely on hardware instead of intercepting
IRET in some cases to detect unmasking of NMIs
- Support for virtualizing Linear Address Masking (LAM)
- Fix a variety of vPMU bugs where KVM fail to stop/reset counters and other state
prior to refreshing the vPMU model.
- Fix a double-overflow PMU bug by tracking emulated counter events using a
dedicated field instead of snapshotting the "previous" counter. If the
hardware PMC count triggers overflow that is recognized in the same VM-Exit
that KVM manually bumps an event count, KVM would pend PMIs for both the
hardware-triggered overflow and for KVM-triggered overflow.
- Turn off KVM_WERROR by default for all configs so that it's not
inadvertantly enabled by non-KVM developers, which can be problematic for
subsystems that require no regressions for W=1 builds.
- Advertise all of the host-supported CPUID bits that enumerate IA32_SPEC_CTRL
"features".
- Don't force a masterclock update when a vCPU synchronizes to the current TSC
generation, as updating the masterclock can cause kvmclock's time to "jump"
unexpectedly, e.g. when userspace hotplugs a pre-created vCPU.
- Use RIP-relative address to read kvm_rebooting in the VM-Enter fault paths,
partly as a super minor optimization, but mostly to make KVM play nice with
position independent executable builds.
- Guard KVM-on-HyperV's range-based TLB flush hooks with an #ifdef on
CONFIG_HYPERV as a minor optimization, and to self-document the code.
- Add CONFIG_KVM_HYPERV to allow disabling KVM support for HyperV "emulation"
at build time.
ARM64:
- LPA2 support, adding 52bit IPA/PA capability for 4kB and 16kB
base granule sizes. Branch shared with the arm64 tree.
- Large Fine-Grained Trap rework, bringing some sanity to the
feature, although there is more to come. This comes with
a prefix branch shared with the arm64 tree.
- Some additional Nested Virtualization groundwork, mostly
introducing the NV2 VNCR support and retargetting the NV
support to that version of the architecture.
- A small set of vgic fixes and associated cleanups.
Loongarch:
- Optimization for memslot hugepage checking
- Cleanup and fix some HW/SW timer issues
- Add LSX/LASX (128bit/256bit SIMD) support
RISC-V:
- KVM_GET_REG_LIST improvement for vector registers
- Generate ISA extension reg_list using macros in get-reg-list selftest
- Support for reporting steal time along with selftest
s390:
- Bugfixes
Selftests:
- Fix an annoying goof where the NX hugepage test prints out garbage
instead of the magic token needed to run the test.
- Fix build errors when a header is delete/moved due to a missing flag
in the Makefile.
- Detect if KVM bugged/killed a selftest's VM and print out a helpful
message instead of complaining that a random ioctl() failed.
- Annotate the guest printf/assert helpers with __printf(), and fix the
various bugs that were lurking due to lack of said annotation.
There are two non-KVM patches buried in the middle of guest_memfd support:
fs: Rename anon_inode_getfile_secure() and anon_inode_getfd_secure()
mm: Add AS_UNMOVABLE to mark mapping as completely unmovable
The first is small and mostly suggested-by Christian Brauner; the second
a bit less so but it was written by an mm person (Vlastimil Babka).

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

A series from Baoquan He cleans up the asm-generic/io.h to remove the
ioremap_uc() definition from everything except x86, which still needs it
for pre-PAT systems. This series notably contains a patch from Jiaxun Yang
that converts MIPS to use asm-generic/io.h like every other architecture
does, enabling future cleanups.
Some of my own patches fix -Wmissing-prototype warnings in architecture
specific code across several architectures. This is now needed as the
warning is enabled by default. There are still some remaining warnings
in minor platforms, but the series should catch most of the widely used
ones make them more consistent with one another.
David McKay fixes a bug in __generic_cmpxchg_local() when this is used
on 64-bit architectures. This could currently only affect parisc64
and sparc64.
Additional cleanups address from Linus Walleij, Uwe Kleine-König,
Thomas Huth, and Kefeng Wang help reduce unnecessary inconsistencies
between architectures.

- btree write buffer rewrite: instead of adding keys to the btree write
buffer at transaction commit time, we know journal them with a
different journal entry type and copy them from the journal to the
write buffer just prior to journal write.
This reduces the number of atomic operations on shared cachelines
in the transaction commit path and is a signicant performance
improvement on some workloads: multithreaded 4k random writes went
from ~650k iops to ~850k iops.
- Bring back optimistic spinning for six locks: the new implementation
doesn't use osq locks; instead we add to the lock waitlist as normal,
and then spin on the lock_acquired bit in the waitlist entry, _not_
the lock itself.
- BCH_IOCTL_DEV_USAGE_V2, which allows for new data types
- BCH_IOCTL_OFFLINE_FSCK, which runs the kernel implementation of fsck
but without mounting: useful for transparently using the kernel
version of fsck from 'bcachefs fsck' when the kernel version is a
better match for the on disk filesystem.
- BCH_IOCTL_ONLINE_FSCK: online fsck. Not all passes are supported yet,
but the passes that are supported are fully featured - errors may be
corrected as normal.
The new ioctls use the new 'thread_with_file' abstraction for kicking
off a kthread that's tied to a file descriptor returned to userspace
via the ioctl.
- btree_paths within a btree_trans are now dynamically growable,
instead of being limited to 64. This is important for the
check_directory_structure phase of fsck, and also fixes some issues
we were having with btree path overflow in the reflink btree.
- Trigger refactoring; prep work for the upcoming disk space accounting
rewrite
- Numerous bugfixes :)

Merge tag 'lsm-pr-20240105' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pcmoore/lsm
Pull security module updates from Paul Moore:
- Add three new syscalls: lsm_list_modules(), lsm_get_self_attr(), and
lsm_set_self_attr().
The first syscall simply lists the LSMs enabled, while the second and
third get and set the current process' LSM attributes. Yes, these
syscalls may provide similar functionality to what can be found under
/proc or /sys, but they were designed to support multiple,
simultaneaous (stacked) LSMs from the start as opposed to the current
/proc based solutions which were created at a time when only one LSM
was allowed to be active at a given time.
We have spent considerable time discussing ways to extend the
existing /proc interfaces to support multiple, simultaneaous LSMs and
even our best ideas have been far too ugly to support as a kernel
API; after +20 years in the kernel, I felt the LSM layer had
established itself enough to justify a handful of syscalls.
Support amongst the individual LSM developers has been nearly
unanimous, with a single objection coming from Tetsuo (TOMOYO) as he
is worried that the LSM_ID_XXX token concept will make it more
difficult for out-of-tree LSMs to survive. Several members of the LSM
community have demonstrated the ability for out-of-tree LSMs to
continue to exist by picking high/unused LSM_ID values as well as
pointing out that many kernel APIs rely on integer identifiers, e.g.
syscalls (!), but unfortunately Tetsuo's objections remain.
My personal opinion is that while I have no interest in penalizing
out-of-tree LSMs, I'm not going to penalize in-tree development to
support out-of-tree development, and I view this as a necessary step
forward to support the push for expanded LSM stacking and reduce our
reliance on /proc and /sys which has occassionally been problematic
for some container users. Finally, we have included the linux-api
folks on (all?) recent revisions of the patchset and addressed all of
their concerns.
- Add a new security_file_ioctl_compat() LSM hook to handle the 32-bit
ioctls on 64-bit systems problem.
This patch includes support for all of the existing LSMs which
provide ioctl hooks, although it turns out only SELinux actually
cares about the individual ioctls. It is worth noting that while
Casey (Smack) and Tetsuo (TOMOYO) did not give explicit ACKs to this
patch, they did both indicate they are okay with the changes.
- Fix a potential memory leak in the CALIPSO code when IPv6 is disabled
at boot.
While it's good that we are fixing this, I doubt this is something
users are seeing in the wild as you need to both disable IPv6 and
then attempt to configure IPv6 labeled networking via
NetLabel/CALIPSO; that just doesn't make much sense.
Normally this would go through netdev, but Jakub asked me to take
this patch and of all the trees I maintain, the LSM tree seemed like
the best fit.
- Update the LSM MAINTAINERS entry with additional information about
our process docs, patchwork, bug reporting, etc.
I also noticed that the Lockdown LSM is missing a dedicated
MAINTAINERS entry so I've added that to the pull request. I've been
working with one of the major Lockdown authors/contributors to see if
they are willing to step up and assume a Lockdown maintainer role;
hopefully that will happen soon, but in the meantime I'll continue to
look after it.
- Add a handful of mailmap entries for Serge Hallyn and myself.

Merge tag 'vfs-6.8.mount' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull vfs mount updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the work to retrieve detailed information about mounts
via two new system calls. This is hopefully the beginning of the end
of the saga that started with fsinfo() years ago.
The LWN articles in [1] and [2] can serve as a summary so we can avoid
rehashing everything here.
At LSFMM in May 2022 we got into a room and agreed on what we want to
do about fsinfo(). Basically, split it into pieces. This is the first
part of that agreement. Specifically, it is concerned with retrieving
information about mounts. So this only concerns the mount information
retrieval, not the mount table change notification, or the extended
filesystem specific mount option work. That is separate work.
Currently mounts have a 32bit id. Mount ids are already in heavy use
by libmount and other low-level userspace but they can't be relied
upon because they're recycled very quickly. We agreed that mounts
should carry a unique 64bit id by which they can be referenced
directly. This is now implemented as part of this work.
The new 64bit mount id is exposed in statx() through the new
STATX_MNT_ID_UNIQUE flag. If the flag isn't raised the old mount id is
returned. If it is raised and the kernel supports the new 64bit mount
id the flag is raised in the result mask and the new 64bit mount id is
returned. New and old mount ids do not overlap so they cannot be
conflated.
Two new system calls are introduced that operate on the 64bit mount
id: statmount() and listmount(). A summary of the api and usage can be
found on LWN as well (cf. [3]) but of course, I'll provide a summary
here as well.
Both system calls rely on struct mnt_id_req. Which is the request
struct used to pass the 64bit mount id identifying the mount to
operate on. It is extensible to allow for the addition of new
parameters and for future use in other apis that make use of mount
ids.
statmount() mimicks the semantics of statx() and exposes a set flags
that userspace may raise in mnt_id_req to request specific information
to be retrieved. A statmount() call returns a struct statmount filled
in with information about the requested mount. Supported requests are
indicated by raising the request flag passed in struct mnt_id_req in
the @mask argument in struct statmount.
Currently we do support:
- STATMOUNT_SB_BASIC:
Basic filesystem info
- STATMOUNT_MNT_BASIC
Mount information (mount id, parent mount id, mount attributes etc)
- STATMOUNT_PROPAGATE_FROM
Propagation from what mount in current namespace
- STATMOUNT_MNT_ROOT
Path of the root of the mount (e.g., mount --bind /bla /mnt returns /bla)
- STATMOUNT_MNT_POINT
Path of the mount point (e.g., mount --bind /bla /mnt returns /mnt)
- STATMOUNT_FS_TYPE
Name of the filesystem type as the magic number isn't enough due to submounts
The string options STATMOUNT_MNT_{ROOT,POINT} and STATMOUNT_FS_TYPE
are appended to the end of the struct. Userspace can use the offsets
in @fs_type, @mnt_root, and @mnt_point to reference those strings
easily.
The struct statmount reserves quite a bit of space currently for
future extensibility. This isn't really a problem and if this bothers
us we can just send a follow-up pull request during this cycle.
listmount() is given a 64bit mount id via mnt_id_req just as
statmount(). It takes a buffer and a size to return an array of the
64bit ids of the child mounts of the requested mount. Userspace can
thus choose to either retrieve child mounts for a mount in batches or
iterate through the child mounts. For most use-cases it will be
sufficient to just leave space for a few child mounts. But for big
mount tables having an iterator is really helpful. Iterating through a
mount table works by setting @param in mnt_id_req to the mount id of
the last child mount retrieved in the previous listmount() call"

Merge tag 'kvm-x86-generic-6.8' of https://github.com/kvm-x86/linux into HEAD
Common KVM changes for 6.8:
- Use memdup_array_user() to harden against overflow.
- Unconditionally advertise KVM_CAP_DEVICE_CTRL for all architectures.
CONFIG_HAVE_KVM is currently used by some architectures to either
enabled the KVM config proper, or to enable host-side code that is
not part of the KVM module. However, CONFIG_KVM's "select" statement
in virt/kvm/Kconfig corresponds to a third meaning, namely to
enable common Kconfigs required by all architectures that support
KVM.
These three meanings can be replaced respectively by an
architecture-specific Kconfig, by IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_KVM), or by
a new Kconfig symbol that is in turn selected by the
architecture-specific "config KVM".
Start by introducing such a new Kconfig symbol, CONFIG_KVM_COMMON.
Unlike CONFIG_HAVE_KVM, it is selected by CONFIG_KVM, not by
architecture code, and it brings in all dependencies of common
KVM code. In particular, INTERVAL_TREE was missing in loongarch
and riscv, so that is another thing that is fixed.

A test [1] in Android test suite started failing after [2] was merged. It
turns out that after handling a major fault under per-VMA lock, the
process major fault counter does not register that fault as major. Before
[2] read faults would be done under mmap_lock, in which case
FAULT_FLAG_TRIED flag is set before retrying. That in turn causes
mm_account_fault() to account the fault as major once retry completes.
With per-VMA locks we often retry because a fault can't be handled without
locking the whole mm using mmap_lock. Therefore such retries do not set
FAULT_FLAG_TRIED flag. This logic does not work after [2] because we can
now handle read major faults under per-VMA lock and upon retry the fact
there was a major fault gets lost. Fix this by setting FAULT_FLAG_TRIED
after retrying under per-VMA lock if VM_FAULT_MAJOR was returned. Ideally
we would use an additional VM_FAULT bit to indicate the reason for the
retry (could not handle under per-VMA lock vs other reason) but this
simpler solution seems to work, so keeping it simple.

that is incompatible with the current code for the PS3's LV1 hypervisor
calls.
This change just adds the line '# CONFIG_PPC64_BIG_ENDIAN_ELF_ABI_V2 is not set'
to the ps3_defconfig file so that the PPC64_ELF_ABI_V1 is used.
Fixes run time errors like these:

The cleanup for the CONFIG_KEXEC Kconfig logic accidentally changed the
'depends on CRYPTO=y' dependency to a plain 'depends on CRYPTO', which
causes a link failure when all the crypto support is in a loadable module
and kexec_file support is built-in:
x86_64-linux-ld: vmlinux.o: in function `__x64_sys_kexec_file_load':
(.text+0x32e30a): undefined reference to `crypto_alloc_shash'
x86_64-linux-ld: (.text+0x32e58e): undefined reference to `crypto_shash_update'
x86_64-linux-ld: (.text+0x32e6ee): undefined reference to `crypto_shash_final'
Both s390 and x86 have this problem, while ppc64 and riscv have the
correct dependency already. On riscv, the dependency is only used for the
purgatory, not for the kexec_file code itself, which may be a bit
surprising as it means that with CONFIG_CRYPTO=m, it is possible to enable
KEXEC_FILE but then the purgatory code is silently left out.
Move this into the common Kconfig.kexec file in a way that is correct
everywhere, using the dependency on CRYPTO_SHA256=y only when the
purgatory code is available. This requires reversing the dependency
between ARCH_SUPPORTS_KEXEC_PURGATORY and KEXEC_FILE, but the effect
remains the same, other than making riscv behave like the other ones.
On s390, there is an additional dependency on CRYPTO_SHA256_S390, which
should technically not be required but gives better performance. Remove
this dependency here, noting that it was not present in the initial
Kconfig code but was brought in without an explanation in commit
71406883fd357 ("s390/kexec_file: Add kexec_file_load system call").

Merge a branch containing SMP topology updates from Srikar, purely so we can
include the cover letter which has a lot of good detail here:
PowerVM systems configured in shared processors mode have some unique
challenges. Some device-tree properties will be missing on a shared
processor. Hence some sched domains may not make sense for shared processor
systems.
Most shared processor systems are over-provisioned. Underlying PowerVM
Hypervisor would schedule at a Big Core (SMT8) granularity. The most recent
power processors support two almost independent cores. In a lightly loaded
condition, it helps the overall system performance if we pack to lesser number
of Big Cores.
Since each thread-group is independent, running threads on both the
thread-groups of a SMT8 core, should have a minimal adverse impact in
non over provisioned scenarios. These changes in this patchset will not
affect in the over provisioned scenario. If there are more threads than
SMT domains, then asym_packing will not kick-in.

Observation:
We are able to see Improvement in ebizzy throughput even with lesser
core utilization (almost half the core utilization) in low utilization
scenarios while still retaining throughput in mid and higher utilization
scenarios.
Note: The numbers are with Uncapped + no-noise case. In the Capped and/or
noise case, due to contention on the Cores, the numbers are expected to
further improve.
Note: The numbers included (sched/fair: Enable group_asym_packing in find_idlest_group)

Currently there are four Powerpc specific sched topologies. These are
all statically defined. However not all these topologies are used by
all Powerpc systems.
To avoid unnecessary degenerations by the scheduler, masks and flags
are compared. However if the sched topologies are build dynamically then
the code is simpler and there are greater chances of avoiding
degenerations.
Note:
Even X86 builds its sched topologies dynamically and proposed changes
are very similar to the way X86 is building its topologies.

core can have more than one thread_groups. For better utilization in
case of a shared processor, its preferable for the scheduler to pack to
the lowest core. However there is no benefit of moving a thread between
two thread groups of the same core.

There are some variables that are only updated at boot time.
So add __ro_after_init attribute to such variables

Like L2-cache info, coregroup information which is used to determine MC
sched domains is only present on dedicated LPARs. i.e PowerVM doesn't
export coregroup information for shared processor LPARs. Hence disable
creating MC domains on shared LPAR Systems.

If there are shared processor LPARs, underlying Hypervisor can have more
virtual cores to handle than actual physical cores.
Starting with Power 9, a big core (aka SMT8 core) has 2 nearly
independent thread groups. On a shared processors LPARs, it helps to
pack threads to lesser number of cores so that the overall system
performance and utilization improves. PowerVM schedules at a big core
level. Hence packing to fewer cores helps.
Since each thread-group is independent, running threads on both the
thread-groups of a SMT8 core, should have a minimal adverse impact in
non over provisioned scenarios. These changes in this patchset will not
affect in the over provisioned scenario. If there are more threads than
SMT domains, then asym_packing will not kick-in
For example: Lets says there are two 8-core Shared LPARs that are
actually sharing a 8 Core shared physical pool, each running 8 threads
each. Then Consolidating 8 threads to 4 cores on each LPAR would help
them to perform better. This is because each of the LPAR will get
100% time to run applications and there will no switching required by
the Hypervisor.
To achieve this, enable SD_ASYM_PACKING flag at CACHE, MC and DIE level
when the system is running in shared processor mode and has big cores.

No functional change in this patch. A helper is added to find if
vcpu is dispatched by hypervisor. Use that instead of opencoding.
Also clarify some of the comments.
