fbc90c042c - 875fa64577da ("mm/hugetlb_vmemmap: fix race with speculative PFN
walkers") is known to cause a performance regression
   (https://lore.kernel.org/all/3acefad9-96e5-4681-8014-827d6be71c7a@linux.ibm.com/T/#mfa809800a7862fb5bdf834c6f71a3a5113eb83ff).
   Yu has a fix which I'll send along later via the hotfixes branch.
 
 - In the series "mm: Avoid possible overflows in dirty throttling" Jan
   Kara addresses a couple of issues in the writeback throttling code.
   These fixes are also targetted at -stable kernels.
 
 - Ryusuke Konishi's series "nilfs2: fix potential issues related to
   reserved inodes" does that.  This should actually be in the
   mm-nonmm-stable tree, along with the many other nilfs2 patches.  My bad.
 
 - More folio conversions from Kefeng Wang in the series "mm: convert to
   folio_alloc_mpol()"
 
 - Kemeng Shi has sent some cleanups to the writeback code in the series
   "Add helper functions to remove repeated code and improve readability of
   cgroup writeback"
 
 - Kairui Song has made the swap code a little smaller and a little
   faster in the series "mm/swap: clean up and optimize swap cache index".
 
 - In the series "mm/memory: cleanly support zeropage in
   vm_insert_page*(), vm_map_pages*() and vmf_insert_mixed()" David
   Hildenbrand has reworked the rather sketchy handling of the use of the
   zeropage in MAP_SHARED mappings.  I don't see any runtime effects here -
   more a cleanup/understandability/maintainablity thing.
 
 - Dev Jain has improved selftests/mm/va_high_addr_switch.c's handling of
   higher addresses, for aarch64.  The (poorly named) series is
   "Restructure va_high_addr_switch".
 
 - The core TLB handling code gets some cleanups and possible slight
   optimizations in Bang Li's series "Add update_mmu_tlb_range() to
   simplify code".
 
 - Jane Chu has improved the handling of our
   fake-an-unrecoverable-memory-error testing feature MADV_HWPOISON in the
   series "Enhance soft hwpoison handling and injection".
 
 - Jeff Johnson has sent a billion patches everywhere to add
   MODULE_DESCRIPTION() to everything.  Some landed in this pull.
 
 - In the series "mm: cleanup MIGRATE_SYNC_NO_COPY mode", Kefeng Wang has
   simplified migration's use of hardware-offload memory copying.
 
 - Yosry Ahmed performs more folio API conversions in his series "mm:
   zswap: trivial folio conversions".
 
 - In the series "large folios swap-in: handle refault cases first",
   Chuanhua Han inches us forward in the handling of large pages in the
   swap code.  This is a cleanup and optimization, working toward the end
   objective of full support of large folio swapin/out.
 
 - In the series "mm,swap: cleanup VMA based swap readahead window
   calculation", Huang Ying has contributed some cleanups and a possible
   fixlet to his VMA based swap readahead code.
 
 - In the series "add mTHP support for anonymous shmem" Baolin Wang has
   taught anonymous shmem mappings to use multisize THP.  By default this
   is a no-op - users must opt in vis sysfs controls.  Dramatic
   improvements in pagefault latency are realized.
 
 - David Hildenbrand has some cleanups to our remaining use of
   page_mapcount() in the series "fs/proc: move page_mapcount() to
   fs/proc/internal.h".
 
 - David also has some highmem accounting cleanups in the series
   "mm/highmem: don't track highmem pages manually".
 
 - Build-time fixes and cleanups from John Hubbard in the series
   "cleanups, fixes, and progress towards avoiding "make headers"".
 
 - Cleanups and consolidation of the core pagemap handling from Barry
   Song in the series "mm: introduce pmd|pte_needs_soft_dirty_wp helpers
   and utilize them".
 
 - Lance Yang's series "Reclaim lazyfree THP without splitting" has
   reduced the latency of the reclaim of pmd-mapped THPs under fairly
   common circumstances.  A 10x speedup is seen in a microbenchmark.
 
   It does this by punting to aother CPU but I guess that's a win unless
   all CPUs are pegged.
 
 - hugetlb_cgroup cleanups from Xiu Jianfeng in the series
   "mm/hugetlb_cgroup: rework on cftypes".
 
 - Miaohe Lin's series "Some cleanups for memory-failure" does just that
   thing.
 
 - Is anyone reading this stuff?  If so, email me!
 
 - Someone other than SeongJae has developed a DAMON feature in Honggyu
   Kim's series "DAMON based tiered memory management for CXL memory".
   This adds DAMON features which may be used to help determine the
   efficiency of our placement of CXL/PCIe attached DRAM.
 
 - DAMON user API centralization and simplificatio work in SeongJae
   Park's series "mm/damon: introduce DAMON parameters online commit
   function".
 
 - In the series "mm: page_type, zsmalloc and page_mapcount_reset()"
   David Hildenbrand does some maintenance work on zsmalloc - partially
   modernizing its use of pageframe fields.
 
 - Kefeng Wang provides more folio conversions in the series "mm: remove
   page_maybe_dma_pinned() and page_mkclean()".
 
 - More cleanup from David Hildenbrand, this time in the series
   "mm/memory_hotplug: use PageOffline() instead of PageReserved() for
   !ZONE_DEVICE".  It "enlightens memory hotplug more about PageOffline()
   pages" and permits the removal of some virtio-mem hacks.
 
 - Barry Song's series "mm: clarify folio_add_new_anon_rmap() and
   __folio_add_anon_rmap()" is a cleanup to the anon folio handling in
   preparation for mTHP (multisize THP) swapin.
 
 - Kefeng Wang's series "mm: improve clear and copy user folio"
   implements more folio conversions, this time in the area of large folio
   userspace copying.
 
 - The series "Docs/mm/damon/maintaier-profile: document a mailing tool
   and community meetup series" tells people how to get better involved
   with other DAMON developers.  From SeongJae Park.
 
 - A large series ("kmsan: Enable on s390") from Ilya Leoshkevich does
   that.
 
 - David Hildenbrand sends along more cleanups, this time against the
   migration code.  The series is "mm/migrate: move NUMA hinting fault
   folio isolation + checks under PTL".
 
 - Jan Kara has found quite a lot of strangenesses and minor errors in
   the readahead code.  He addresses this in the series "mm: Fix various
   readahead quirks".
 
 - SeongJae Park's series "selftests/damon: test DAMOS tried regions and
   {min,max}_nr_regions" adds features and addresses errors in DAMON's self
   testing code.
 
 - Gavin Shan has found a userspace-triggerable WARN in the pagecache
   code.  The series "mm/filemap: Limit page cache size to that supported
   by xarray" addresses this.  The series is marked cc:stable.
 
 - Chengming Zhou's series "mm/ksm: cmp_and_merge_page() optimizations
   and cleanup" cleans up and slightly optimizes KSM.
 
 - Roman Gushchin has separated the memcg-v1 and memcg-v2 code - lots of
   code motion.  The series (which also makes the memcg-v1 code
   Kconfigurable) are
 
   "mm: memcg: separate legacy cgroup v1 code and put under config
   option" and
   "mm: memcg: put cgroup v1-specific memcg data under CONFIG_MEMCG_V1"
 
 - Dan Schatzberg's series "Add swappiness argument to memory.reclaim"
   adds an additional feature to this cgroup-v2 control file.
 
 - The series "Userspace controls soft-offline pages" from Jiaqi Yan
   permits userspace to stop the kernel's automatic treatment of excessive
   correctable memory errors.  In order to permit userspace to monitor and
   handle this situation.
 
 - Kefeng Wang's series "mm: migrate: support poison recover from migrate
   folio" teaches the kernel to appropriately handle migration from
   poisoned source folios rather than simply panicing.
 
 - SeongJae Park's series "Docs/damon: minor fixups and improvements"
   does those things.
 
 - In the series "mm/zsmalloc: change back to per-size_class lock"
   Chengming Zhou improves zsmalloc's scalability and memory utilization.
 
 - Vivek Kasireddy's series "mm/gup: Introduce memfd_pin_folios() for
   pinning memfd folios" makes the GUP code use FOLL_PIN rather than bare
   refcount increments.  So these paes can first be moved aside if they
   reside in the movable zone or a CMA block.
 
 - Andrii Nakryiko has added a binary ioctl()-based API to /proc/pid/maps
   for much faster reading of vma information.  The series is "query VMAs
   from /proc/<pid>/maps".
 
 - In the series "mm: introduce per-order mTHP split counters" Lance Yang
   improves the kernel's presentation of developer information related to
   multisize THP splitting.
 
 - Michael Ellerman has developed the series "Reimplement huge pages
   without hugepd on powerpc (8xx, e500, book3s/64)".  This permits
   userspace to use all available huge page sizes.
 
 - In the series "revert unconditional slab and page allocator fault
   injection calls" Vlastimil Babka removes a performance-affecting and not
   very useful feature from slab fault injection.

cf05e93af4 Nothing hugely exciting happening in the documentation tree this time
around, mostly more of the usual:
 
 - More Spanish, Italian, and Chinese translations
 
 - A new script, scripts/checktransupdate.py, can be used to see which
   commits have touched an (English) document since a given translation was
   last updated.
 
 - A couple of "best practices" suggestions (on Link: tags and off-list
   discussions) that were not entirely at consensus level, but I concluded
   they were close enough to accept.
 
 - Some nice cleanups removing documentation for kernel parameters that have
   not been recognized for ... a long time.
 
 ...along with the usual updates, typo fixes, and such.

ec3e837d8f kmsan: allow disabling KMSAN checks for the current task
Like for KASAN, it's useful to temporarily disable KMSAN checks around,
e.g., redzone accesses.  Introduce kmsan_disable_current() and
kmsan_enable_current(), which are similar to their KASAN counterparts.

Make them reentrant in order to handle memory allocations in interrupt
context.  Repurpose the allow_reporting field for this.

c07ea940a0 kcsan: Introduce __data_racy type qualifier
This commit adds a __data_racy type qualifier that enables kernel
 developers to inform KCSAN that a given variable is a shared variable
 without needing to mark each and every access.  This allows pre-KCSAN
 code to be correctly (if approximately) instrumented withh very little
 effort, and also provides people reading the code a clear indication that
 the variable is in fact shared.  In addition, it permits incremental
 transition to per-access KCSAN marking, so that (for example) a given
 subsystem can be transitioned one variable at a time, while avoiding
 large numbers of KCSAN warnings during this transition.

If function-like macros do not utilize a parameter, it might result in a
build warning.  In our coding style guidelines, we advocate for utilizing
static inline functions to replace such macros.  This patch verifies
compliance with the new rule.

For a macro such as the one below,

 #define test(a) do { } while (0)

The test result is as follows.

 WARNING: Argument 'a' is not used in function-like macro
 #21: FILE: mm/init-mm.c:20:
 +#define test(a) do { } while (0)

 total: 0 errors, 1 warnings, 8 lines checked

31f605a308 kcsan, compiler_types: Introduce __data_racy type qualifier
Based on the discussion at [1], it would be helpful to mark certain
variables as explicitly "data racy", which would result in KCSAN not
reporting data races involving any accesses on such variables. To do
that, introduce the __data_racy type qualifier:

	struct foo {
		...
		int __data_racy bar;
		...
	};

In KCSAN-kernels, __data_racy turns into volatile, which KCSAN already
treats specially by considering them "marked". In non-KCSAN kernels the
type qualifier turns into no-op.

The generated code between KCSAN-instrumented kernels and non-KCSAN
kernels is already huge (inserted calls into runtime for every memory
access), so the extra generated code (if any) due to volatile for few
such __data_racy variables are unlikely to have measurable impact on
performance.

Linus Torvalds
902861e34c - 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".
 
 - Zi Yan has changed the page splitting code so we can split huge pages
   into sizes other than order-0 to better utilize large folios.  The
   series is named "Split a folio to any lower order folios".
 
 - David Hildenbrand has contributed the series "mm: remove
   total_mapcount()", a cleanup.
 
 - Matthew Wilcox has sought to improve the performance of bulk memory
   freeing in his series "Rearrange batched folio freeing".
 
 - Gang Li's series "hugetlb: parallelize hugetlb page init on boot"
   provides large improvements in bootup times on large machines which are
   configured to use large numbers of hugetlb pages.
 
 - Matthew Wilcox's series "PageFlags cleanups" does that.
 
 - Qi Zheng's series "minor fixes and supplement for ptdesc" does that
   also.  S390 is affected.
 
 - Cleanups to our pagemap utility functions from Peter Xu in his series

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".

 - Zi Yan has changed the page splitting code so we can split huge pages
   into sizes other than order-0 to better utilize large folios. The
   series is named "Split a folio to any lower order folios".

 - David Hildenbrand has contributed the series "mm: remove
   total_mapcount()", a cleanup.

 - Matthew Wilcox has sought to improve the performance of bulk memory
   freeing in his series "Rearrange batched folio freeing".

 - Gang Li's series "hugetlb: parallelize hugetlb page init on boot"
   provides large improvements in bootup times on large machines which
   are configured to use large numbers of hugetlb pages.

 - Matthew Wilcox's series "PageFlags cleanups" does that.

 - Qi Zheng's series "minor fixes and supplement for ptdesc" does that
   also. S390 is affected.

 - Cleanups to our pagemap utility functions from Peter Xu in his series
   "mm/treewide: Replace pXd_large() with pXd_leaf()".

 - Nico Pache has fixed a few things with our hugepage selftests in his
   series "selftests/mm: Improve Hugepage Test Handling in MM
   Selftests".

 - Also, of course, many singleton patches to many things. Please see
   the individual changelogs for details.

Linus Torvalds
9187210eee Networking changes for 6.9.
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".

After commit f7e01ab828 ("kasan: move tests to mm/kasan/"), the test
file is renamed to mm/kasan/kasan_test.c and the test module is renamed to
kasan_test.ko, so update the descriptions in the document.

While at it, update the line number and testcase number when the tests
kmalloc_large_oob_right and kmalloc_double_kzfree failed to sync with the
current code in mm/kasan/kasan_test.c.

2a0683be5b selftests: Introduce Makefile variable to list shared bash scripts
Some tests written in bash source other files in a parent directory. For
example, drivers/net/bonding/dev_addr_lists.sh sources
net/forwarding/lib.sh. If a subset of tests is exported and run outside the
source tree (for example by using `make -C tools/testing/selftests gen_tar
TARGETS="drivers/net/bonding"`), these other files must be made available
as well.

Commit ae108c48b5 ("selftests: net: Fix cross-tree inclusion of scripts")
addressed this problem by symlinking and copying the sourced files but this
only works for direct dependencies. Commit 25ae948b44 ("selftests/net:
add lib.sh") changed net/forwarding/lib.sh to source net/lib.sh. As a
result, that latter file must be included as well when the former is
exported. This was not handled and was reverted in commit 2114e83381
("selftests: forwarding: Avoid failures to source net/lib.sh"). In order to
allow reinstating the inclusion of net/lib.sh from net/forwarding/lib.sh,
add a mechanism to list dependent files in a new Makefile variable and
export them. This allows sourcing those files using the same expression
whether tests are run in-tree or exported.

Dependencies are not resolved recursively so transitive dependencies must
be listed in TEST_INCLUDES. For example, if net/forwarding/lib.sh sources
net/lib.sh; the Makefile related to a test that sources
net/forwarding/lib.sh from a parent directory must list:
TEST_INCLUDES := \
	../../../net/forwarding/lib.sh \
	../../../net/lib.sh

v2:
Fix rst syntax in Documentation/dev-tools/kselftest.rst (Jakub Kicinski)

v1 (from RFC):
* changed TEST_INCLUDES to take relative paths, like other TEST_* variables
  (Vladimir Oltean)
* preserved common "$(MAKE) OUTPUT=... -C ... target" ordering in Makefile
  (Petr Machata)

6727980b67 kselftests: lib.mk: Add TEST_GEN_MODS_DIR variable
Add TEST_GEN_MODS_DIR variable for kselftests. It can point to
a directory containing kernel modules that will be used by
selftest scripts.

The modules are built as external modules for the running kernel.
As a result they are always binary compatible and the same tests
can be used for older or newer kernels.

The build requires "kernel-devel" package to be installed.
For example, in the upstream sources, the rpm devel package
is produced by "make rpm-pkg"

The modules can be built independently by

  make -C tools/testing/selftests/livepatch/

or they will be automatically built before running the tests via

  make -C tools/testing/selftests/livepatch/ run_tests

Note that they are _not_ built when running the standalone
tests by calling, for example, ./test-state.sh.

Along with TEST_GEN_MODS_DIR, it was necessary to create a new install
rule. INSTALL_MODS_RULE is needed because INSTALL_SINGLE_RULE would
copy the entire TEST_GEN_MODS_DIR directory to the destination, even
the files created by Kbuild to compile the modules. The new install
rule copies only the .ko files, as we would expect the gen_tar to work.

Linus Torvalds
3e7aeb78ab Networking changes for 6.8.
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.
 
 New hardware / drivers

  - Ethernet:
    - Octeon CN10K devices
    - Broadcom 5760X P7
    - Qualcomm SM8550 SoC
    - Texas Instrument DP83TG720S PHY

     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.
         This 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

   - Rust abstractions for network PHY drivers; do not cover yet the
     full C API, but already allow implementing functional PHY drivers
     in rust

     allowing complete access to the device <> NAPIs <> queues
     relationship

d03c720e03 kunit: Add APIs for managing devices
Tests for drivers often require a struct device to pass to other
functions. While it's possible to create these with
root_device_register(), or to use something like a platform device, this
is both a misuse of those APIs, and can be difficult to clean up after,
for example, a failed assertion.

Add some KUnit-specific functions for registering and unregistering a
struct device:
- kunit_device_register()
- kunit_device_register_with_driver()
- kunit_device_unregister()

These helpers allocate a on a 'kunit' bus which will either probe the
driver passed in (kunit_device_register_with_driver), or will create a
stub driver (kunit_device_register) which is cleaned up on test shutdown.

Devices are automatically unregistered on test shutdown, but can be
manually unregistered earlier with kunit_device_unregister() in order
to, for example, test device release code.

56778b49c9 kunit: Add a macro to wrap a deferred action function
KUnit's deferred action API accepts a void(*)(void *) function pointer
which is called when the test is exited. However, we very frequently
want to use existing functions which accept a single pointer, but which
may not be of type void*. While this is probably dodgy enough to be on
the wrong side of the C standard, it's been often used for similar
callbacks, and gcc's -Wcast-function-type seems to ignore cases where
the only difference is the type of the argument, assuming it's
compatible (i.e., they're both pointers to data).

However, clang 16 has introduced -Wcast-function-type-strict, which no
longer permits any deviation in function pointer type. This seems to be
because it'd break CFI, which validates the type of function calls.

This rather ruins our attempts to cast functions to defer them, and
leaves us with a few options. The one we've chosen is to implement a
macro which will generate a wrapper function which accepts a void*, and
casts the argument to the appropriate type.

For example, if you were trying to wrap:
void foo_close(struct foo *handle);
you could use:
KUNIT_DEFINE_ACTION_WRAPPER(kunit_action_foo_close,
			    foo_close,
			    struct foo *);

This would create a new kunit_action_foo_close() function, of type
kunit_action_t, which could be passed into kunit_add_action() and
similar functions.

In addition to defining this macro, update KUnit and its tests to use
it.

5aa4ac64e6 LoongArch: Add KASAN (Kernel Address Sanitizer) support
1/8 of kernel addresses reserved for shadow memory. But for LoongArch,
There are a lot of holes between different segments and valid address
space (256T available) is insufficient to map all these segments to kasan
shadow memory with the common formula provided by kasan core, saying
(addr >> KASAN_SHADOW_SCALE_SHIFT) + KASAN_SHADOW_OFFSET

So LoongArch has a arch-specific mapping formula, different segments are
mapped individually, and only limited space lengths of these specific
segments are mapped to shadow.

At early boot stage the whole shadow region populated with just one
physical page (kasan_early_shadow_page). Later, this page is reused as
readonly zero shadow for some memory that kasan currently don't track.
After mapping the physical memory, pages for shadow memory are allocated
and mapped.

Functions like memset()/memcpy()/memmove() do a lot of memory accesses.
If bad pointer passed to one of these function it is important to be
caught. Compiler's instrumentation cannot do this since these functions
are written in assembly.

KASan replaces memory functions with manually instrumented variants.
Original functions declared as weak symbols so strong definitions in
mm/kasan/kasan.c could replace them. Original functions have aliases
with '__' prefix in names, so we could call non-instrumented variant
if needed.

8c293a6353 kasan, doc: note kasan.fault=panic_on_write behaviour for async modes
Note the behaviour of kasan.fault=panic_on_write for async modes, since
all asynchronous faults will result in panic (even if they are reads).

Fixes: 452c03fdbe ("kasan: add support for kasan.fault=panic_on_write")
