f38601368f tracing: Add tp_printk_stop_on_boot option
Add a kernel command line option that disables printing of events to
console at late_initcall_sync(). This is useful when needing to see
specific events written to console on boot up, but not wanting it when
user space starts, as user space may make the console so noisy that the
system becomes inoperable.

828615950b docs/cgroup-v1/blkio: update for 5.x kernels
Commit bf382fb0bcef4 ("block: remove legacy IO schedulers", Oct 12 2018)
removes the CFQ scheduler, together with blkio.weight and
blkio.weight_device described in cgroup v1 documentation. Users are
supposed to use the BFQ scheduler, which cgroup file for setting weight
is blkio.bfq.weight, but there is no way to set per-device weight.

Later, commit 795fe54c2a8 per-device weights for BFQ, meaning that
blkio.bfq.weight and blkio.bfq.weight_device can be used in a way
similar to the old CFQ cgroup interface.

Yet, the cgroup v1 docs were never updated. Fix this:
 - use the new file names;
 - fix the range for weight (used to be 10..1000, now 1..1000);
 - link to BFQ scheduler docs.

7bb9557b48 pstore/blk: Use the normal block device I/O path
Stop poking into block layer internals and just open the block device
file an use kernel_read and kernel_write on it. Note that this means
the transformation from name_to_dev_t can't be used anymore when
pstore_blk is loaded as a module: a full filesystem device path name
must be used instead. Additionally removes ":internal:" kerndoc link,
since no such documentation remains.

Instead of trying to keep them both in sync and in order to reduce

3958e2d0c3 cgroup: make per-cgroup pressure stall tracking configurable
PSI accounts stalls for each cgroup separately and aggregates it at each
level of the hierarchy. This causes additional overhead with psi_avgs_work
being called for each cgroup in the hierarchy. psi_avgs_work has been
highly optimized, however on systems with large number of cgroups the
overhead becomes noticeable.
Systems which use PSI only at the system level could avoid this overhead
if PSI can be configured to skip per-cgroup stall accounting.
Add "cgroup_disable=pressure" kernel command-line option to allow
requesting system-wide only pressure stall accounting. When set, it
keeps system-wide accounting under /proc/pressure/ but skips accounting
for individual cgroups and does not expose PSI nodes in cgroup hierarchy.

boot to avoid using memory that can be potentially clobbered by BIOS.

Since the entire range under 1M is always reserved there is no need for
these options anymore and they can be removed.

3fb10ea4ce thunderbolt: Add support for retimer NVM upgrade when there is no link
With help from platform firmware (ACPI) it is possible to power on
retimers even when there is no USB4 link (e.g nothing is connected to
the USB4 ports). This allows us to bring the USB4 sideband up so that we
can access retimers and upgrade their NVM firmware.

If the platform has support for this, we expose two additional
attributes under USB4 ports: offline and rescan. These can be used to
bring the port offline, rescan for the retimers and put the port online
again. The retimer NVM upgrade itself works the same way than with cable
connected.

f4d3f25ace docs: admin-guide: update description for kernel.modprobe sysctl
When I added CONFIG_MODPROBE_PATH, I neglected to update Documentation/.
It's still true that this defaults to /sbin/modprobe, but now via a level
of indirection.  So document that the kernel might have been built with
something other than /sbin/modprobe as the initial value.

08389d8882 bpf: Add kconfig knob for disabling unpriv bpf by default
Add a kconfig knob which allows for unprivileged bpf to be disabled by default.
If set, the knob sets /proc/sys/kernel/unprivileged_bpf_disabled to value of 2.

This still allows a transition of 2 -> {0,1} through an admin. Similarly,
this also still keeps 1 -> {1} behavior intact, so that once set to permanently
disabled, it cannot be undone aside from a reboot.

We've also added extra2 with max of 2 for the procfs handler, so that an admin
still has a chance to toggle between 0 <-> 2.

Either way, as an additional alternative, applications can make use of CAP_BPF
that we added a while ago.

d0bfa8b3c4 kvfree_rcu: Release a page cache under memory pressure
Add a drain_page_cache() function to drain a per-cpu page cache.
The reason behind of it is a system can run into a low memory
condition, in that case a page shrinker can ask for its users
to free their caches in order to get extra memory available for
other needs in a system.

When a system hits such condition, a page cache is drained for
all CPUs in a system. By default a page cache work is delayed
with 5 seconds interval until a memory pressure disappears, if
needed it can be changed. See a rcu_delay_page_cache_fill_msec
module parameter.

b18def121f bitmap_parse: Support 'all' semantics
RCU code supports an 'all' group as a special case when parsing rcu_nocbs
parameter. This patch moves the 'all' support to the core bitmap_parse
code, so that all bitmap users can enjoy this extension.

Moving 'all' parsing to a bitmap_parse level also allows users to pass
patterns together with 'all' in regular group:pattern format, for example,
"rcu_nocbs=all:1/2" would offload all the even-numbered CPUs regardless
of the number of CPUs on the system.

bbcd53c960 drivers/char: remove /dev/kmem for good
Patch series "drivers/char: remove /dev/kmem for good".

Exploring /dev/kmem and /dev/mem in the context of memory hot(un)plug and
memory ballooning, I started questioning the existence of /dev/kmem.

Comparing it with the /proc/kcore implementation, it does not seem to be
able to deal with things like

a) Pages unmapped from the direct mapping (e.g., to be used by secretmem)
  -> kern_addr_valid(). virt_addr_valid() is not sufficient.

b) Special cases like gart aperture memory that is not to be touched
  -> mem_pfn_is_ram()

Unless I am missing something, it's at least broken in some cases and might
fault/crash the machine.

Looks like its existence has been questioned before in 2005 and 2010 [1],
after ~11 additional years, it might make sense to revive the discussion.

CONFIG_DEVKMEM is only enabled in a single defconfig (on purpose or by
mistake?).  All distributions disable it: in Ubuntu it has been disabled
for more than 10 years, in Debian since 2.6.31, in Fedora at least
starting with FC3, in RHEL starting with RHEL4, in SUSE starting from
15sp2, and OpenSUSE has it disabled as well.

1) /dev/kmem was popular for rootkits [2] before it got disabled
   basically everywhere. Ubuntu documents [3] "There is no modern user of
   /dev/kmem any more beyond attackers using it to load kernel rootkits.".
   RHEL documents in a BZ [5] "it served no practical purpose other than to
   serve as a potential security problem or to enable binary module drivers
   to access structures/functions they shouldn't be touching"

2) /proc/kcore is a decent interface to have a controlled way to read
   kernel memory for debugging puposes. (will need some extensions to
   deal with memory offlining/unplug, memory ballooning, and poisoned
   pages, though)

3) It might be useful for corner case debugging [1]. KDB/KGDB might be a
   better fit, especially, to write random memory; harder to shoot
   yourself into the foot.

4) "Kernel Memory Editor" [4] hasn't seen any updates since 2000 and seems
   to be incompatible with 64bit [1]. For educational purposes,
   /proc/kcore might be used to monitor value updates -- or older
   kernels can be used.

5) It's broken on arm64, and therefore, completely disabled there.

Looks like it's essentially unused and has been replaced by better
suited interfaces for individual tasks (/proc/kcore, KDB/KGDB). Let's
just remove it.

e7cb072eb9 init/initramfs.c: do unpacking asynchronously
Patch series "background initramfs unpacking, and CONFIG_MODPROBE_PATH", v3.

These two patches are independent, but better-together.

The second is a rather trivial patch that simply allows the developer to
change "/sbin/modprobe" to something else - e.g.  the empty string, so
that all request_module() during early boot return -ENOENT early, without
even spawning a usermode helper, needlessly synchronizing with the
initramfs unpacking.

The first patch delegates decompressing the initramfs to a worker thread,
allowing do_initcalls() in main.c to proceed to the device_ and late_
initcalls without waiting for that decompression (and populating of
rootfs) to finish.  Obviously, some of those later calls may rely on the
initramfs being available, so I've added synchronization points in the
firmware loader and usermodehelper paths - there might be other places
that would need this, but so far no one has been able to think of any
places I have missed.

There's not much to win if most of the functionality needed during boot is
only available as modules.  But systems with a custom-made .config and
initramfs can boot faster, partly due to utilizing more than one cpu
earlier, partly by avoiding known-futile modprobe calls (which would still
trigger synchronization with the initramfs unpacking, thus eliminating
most of the first benefit).

This patch (of 2):

Most of the boot process doesn't actually need anything from the
initramfs, until of course PID1 is to be executed.  So instead of doing
the decompressing and populating of the initramfs synchronously in
populate_rootfs() itself, push that off to a worker thread.

This is primarily motivated by an embedded ppc target, where unpacking
even the rather modest sized initramfs takes 0.6 seconds, which is long
enough that the external watchdog becomes unhappy that it doesn't get
attention soon enough.  By doing the initramfs decompression in a worker
thread, we get to do the device_initcalls and hence start petting the
watchdog much sooner.

Normal desktops might benefit as well.  On my mostly stock Ubuntu kernel,
my initramfs is a 26M xz-compressed blob, decompressing to around 126M.
That takes almost two seconds:

[    0.201454] Trying to unpack rootfs image as initramfs...
[    1.976633] Freeing initrd memory: 29416K

Before this patch, these lines occur consecutively in dmesg.  With this
patch, the timestamps on these two lines is roughly the same as above, but
with 172 lines inbetween - so more than one cpu has been kept busy doing
work that would otherwise only happen after the populate_rootfs()
finished.

Should one of the initcalls done after rootfs_initcall time (i.e., device_
and late_ initcalls) need something from the initramfs (say, a kernel
module or a firmware blob), it will simply wait for the initramfs
unpacking to be done before proceeding, which should in theory make this
completely safe.

But if some driver pokes around in the filesystem directly and not via one
of the official kernel interfaces (i.e.  request_firmware*(),
call_usermodehelper*) that theory may not hold - also, I certainly might
have missed a spot when sprinkling wait_for_initramfs().  So there is an
escape hatch in the form of an initramfs_async= command line parameter.

e3a9d9fcc3 mm,memory_hotplug: add kernel boot option to enable memmap_on_memory
Self stored memmap leads to a sparse memory situation which is
unsuitable for workloads that requires large contiguous memory chunks,
so make this an opt-in which needs to be explicitly enabled.

To control this, let memory_hotplug have its own memory space, as
suggested by David, so we can add memory_hotplug.memmap_on_memory
parameter.

b8da5cd4e5 userfaultfd: update documentation to describe minor fault handling
Reword / reorganize things a little bit into "lists", so new features /
modes / ioctls can sort of just be appended.

Describe how UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_MINOR and UFFDIO_CONTINUE can be used to
intercept and resolve minor faults.  Make it clear that COPY and ZEROPAGE
are used for MISSING faults, whereas CONTINUE is used for MINOR faults.
