tracing: Remove redundant config HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT_RECORD
Ftrace is tightly coupled with architecture specific code because it requires the use of trampolines written in assembly. This means that when a new feature or optimization is made, it must be done for all architectures. To simplify the approach, CONFIG_HAVE_FTRACE_* configs are added to denote which architecture has the new enhancement so that other architectures can still function until they too have been updated. The CONFIG_HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT was added to help simplify the DYNAMIC_FTRACE work, but now every architecture that implements DYNAMIC_FTRACE also has HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT set too, making it redundant with the HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE. Remove the HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT config and use DYNAMIC_FTRACE directly where applicable.

powerpc/8xx: Reduce alignment constraint for kernel memory
8xx has three large page sizes: 8M, 512k and 16k. A too big alignment can lead to wasting memory. On a board which has only 32 MBytes of RAM, every single byte is worth it and a 512k alignment is sometimes too much. Allow mapping kernel memory with 16k pages and reduce the constraint on kernel memory alignment. 512k and 16k pages are handled the same way so reverse tests in order to make 8M pages the special case and other ones (512k and 16k) the alternative.

powerpc: enable dynamic preemption
Once the lazy preemption is supported, it would be desirable to change
the preemption models at runtime. So add support for dynamic preemption
using DYNAMIC_KEY.
::Tested lightly on Power10 LPAR
Performance numbers indicate that, preempt=none(no dynamic) and
preempt=none(dynamic) are close.

- The 6 patch series "Enable strict percpu address space checks" from
Uros Bizjak uses x86 named address space qualifiers to provide compile-time checking of percpu area accesses. This has caused a small amount of fallout - two or three issues were reported. In all cases the calling code was founf to be incorrect. - The 4 patch series "Some cleanup for memcg" from Chen Ridong implements some relatively monir cleanups for the memcontrol code. - The 17 patch series "mm: fixes for device-exclusive entries (hmm)" from David Hildenbrand fixes a boatload of issues which David found then using device-exclusive PTE entries when THP is enabled. More work is needed, but this makes thins better - our own HMM selftests now succeed. - The 2 patch series "mm: zswap: remove z3fold and zbud" from Yosry Ahmed remove the z3fold and zbud implementations. They have been deprecated for half a year and nobody has complained. - The 5 patch series "mm: further simplify VMA merge operation" from Lorenzo Stoakes implements numerous simplifications in this area. No runtime effects are anticipated. - The 4 patch series "mm/madvise: remove redundant mmap_lock operations from process_madvise()" from SeongJae Park rationalizes the locking in the madvise() implementation. Performance gains of 20-25% were observed in one MADV_DONTNEED microbenchmark. - The 12 patch series "Tiny cleanup and improvements about SWAP code" from Baoquan He contains a number of touchups to issues which Baoquan noticed when working on the swap code. - The 2 patch series "mm: kmemleak: Usability improvements" from Catalin Marinas implements a couple of improvements to the kmemleak user-visible output. - The 2 patch series "mm/damon/paddr: fix large folios access and schemes handling" from Usama Arif provides a couple of fixes for DAMON's handling of large folios. - The 3 patch series "mm/damon/core: fix wrong and/or useless damos_walk() behaviors" from SeongJae Park fixes a few issues with the accuracy of kdamond's walking of DAMON regions. - The 3 patch series "expose mapping wrprotect, fix fb_defio use" from Lorenzo Stoakes changes the interaction between framebuffer deferred-io and core MM. No functional changes are anticipated - this is preparatory work for the future removal of page structure fields. - The 4 patch series "mm/damon: add support for hugepage_size DAMOS filter" from Usama Arif adds a DAMOS filter which permits the filtering by huge page sizes. - The 4 patch series "mm: permit guard regions for file-backed/shmem mappings" from Lorenzo Stoakes extends the guard region feature from its present "anon mappings only" state. The feature now covers shmem and file-backed mappings. - The 4 patch series "mm: batched unmap lazyfree large folios during reclamation" from Barry Song cleans up and speeds up the unmapping for pte-mapped large folios. - The 18 patch series "reimplement per-vma lock as a refcount" from Suren Baghdasaryan puts the vm_lock back into the vma. Our reasons for pulling it out were largely bogus and that change made the code more messy.

Behaviour is made more consistent and the documention is updated accordingly. - The 5 patch series "Switch zswap to object read/write APIs" from Yosry Ahmed updates zswap to the new object read/write APIs and thus permits the removal of some legacy code from zpool and zsmalloc. - The 6 patch series "Some trivial cleanups for shmem" from Baolin Wang does as it claims. - The 20 patch series "fs/dax: Fix ZONE_DEVICE page reference counts" from Alistair Popple regularizes the weird ZONE_DEVICE page refcount handling in DAX, permittig the removal of a number of special-case checks. - The 4 patch series "refactor mremap and fix bug" from Lorenzo Stoakes is a preparatoty refactoring and cleanup of the mremap() code. - The 20 patch series "mm: MM owner tracking for large folios (!hugetlb) + CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT" from David Hildenbrand reworks the manner in which we determine whether a large folio is known to be mapped exclusively into a single MM. - The 8 patch series "mm/damon: add sysfs dirs for managing DAMOS filters based on handling layers" from SeongJae Park adds a couple of new sysfs directories to ease the management of DAMON/DAMOS filters. - The 13 patch series "arch, mm: reduce code duplication in mem_init()" from Mike Rapoport consolidates many per-arch implementations of mem_init() into code generic code, where that is practical. - The 13 patch series "mm/damon/sysfs: commit parameters online via damon_call()" from SeongJae Park continues the cleaning up of sysfs access to DAMON internal data. - The 3 patch series "mm: page_ext: Introduce new iteration API" from Luiz Capitulino reworks the page_ext initialization to fix a boot-time crash which was observed with an unusual combination of compile and cmdline options. - The 8 patch series "Buddy allocator like (or non-uniform) folio split" from Zi Yan reworks the code to split a folio into smaller folios. The main benefit is lessened memory consumption: fewer post-split folios are generated. - The 2 patch series "Minimize xa_node allocation during xarry split" from Zi Yan reduces the number of xarray xa_nodes which are generated during an xarray split. - The 2 patch series "drivers/base/memory: Two cleanups" from Gavin Shan performs some maintenance work on the drivers/base/memory code. - The 3 patch series "Add tracepoints for lowmem reserves, watermarks and totalreserve_pages" from Martin Liu adds some more tracepoints to the page allocator code. - The 4 patch series "mm/madvise: cleanup requests validations and classifications" from SeongJae Park cleans up some warts which SeongJae observed during his earlier madvise work. - The 3 patch series "mm/hwpoison: Fix regressions in memory failure handling" from Shuai Xue addresses two quite serious regressions which Shuai has observed in the memory-failure implementation. - The 5 patch series "mm: reliable huge page allocator" from Johannes Weiner makes huge page allocations cheaper and more reliable by reducing fragmentation. - The 5 patch series "Minor memcg cleanups & prep for memdescs" from Matthew Wilcox is preparatory work for the future implementation of memdescs. - The 4 patch series "track memory used by balloon drivers" from Nico Pache introduces a way to track memory used by our various balloon drivers. - The 2 patch series "mm/damon: introduce DAMOS filter type for active pages" from Nhat Pham permits users to filter for active/inactive pages, separately for file and anon pages. - The 2 patch series "Adding Proactive Memory Reclaim Statistics" from Hao Jia separates the proactive reclaim statistics from the direct reclaim statistics. - The 2 patch series "mm/vmscan: don't try to reclaim hwpoison folio" from Jinjiang Tu fixes our handling of hwpoisoned pages within the reclaim code. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iHQEABYKAB0WIQTTMBEPP41GrTpTJgfdBJ7gKXxAjgUCZ+nZaAAKCRDdBJ7gKXxA jsOWAPiP4r7CJHMZRK4eyJOkvS1a1r+TsIarrFZtjwvf/GIfAQCEG+JDxVfUaUSF Ee93qSSLR1BkNdDw+931Pu0mXfbnBw== =Pn2K -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'mm-stable-2025-03-30-16-52' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton: - The series "Enable strict percpu address space checks" from Uros Bizjak uses x86 named address space qualifiers to provide compile-time checking of percpu area accesses.

mm: rename GENERIC_PTDUMP and PTDUMP_CORE
Platforms subscribe into generic ptdump implementation via GENERIC_PTDUMP. But generic ptdump gets enabled via PTDUMP_CORE. These configs combination is confusing as they sound very similar and does not differentiate between platform's feature subscription and feature enablement for ptdump. Rename the configs as ARCH_HAS_PTDUMP and PTDUMP making it more clear and improve readability.

powerpc/static_call: Implement inline static calls
Implement inline static calls:
- Put a 'bl' to the destination function ('b' if tail call)
- Put a 'nop' when the destination function is NULL ('blr' if tail call)
- Put a 'li r3,0' when the destination is the RET0 function and not
a tail call.
If the destination is too far (over the 32Mb limit), go via the
trampoline.

CRC updates for 6.14
- Reorganize the architecture-optimized CRC32 and CRC-T10DIF code to be directly accessible via the library API, instead of requiring the crypto API. This is much simpler and more efficient. - Convert some users such as ext4 to use the CRC32 library API instead of the crypto API. More conversions like this will come later. - Add a KUnit test that tests and benchmarks multiple CRC variants. Remove older, less-comprehensive tests that are made redundant by this. - Add an entry to MAINTAINERS for the kernel's CRC library code. I'm volunteering to maintain it.

ftrace updates for v6.14:
- Have fprobes built on top of function graph infrastructure The fprobe logic is an optimized kprobe that uses ftrace to attach to functions when a probe is needed at the start or end of the function. The fprobe and kretprobe logic implements a similar method as the function graph tracer to trace the end of the function. That is to hijack the return address and jump to a trampoline to do the trace when the function exits. To do this, a shadow stack needs to be created to store the original return address. Fprobes and function graph do this slightly differently. Fprobes (and kretprobes) has slots per callsite that are reserved to save the return address. This is fine when just a few points are traced. But users of fprobes, such as BPF programs, are starting to add many more locations, and this method does not scale. The function graph tracer was created to trace all functions in the kernel. In order to do this, when function graph tracing is started, every task gets its own shadow stack to hold the return address that is going to be traced. The function graph tracer has been updated to allow multiple users to use its infrastructure. Now have fprobes be one of those users. This will also allow for the fprobe and kretprobe methods to trace the return address to become obsolete. With new technologies like CFI that need to know about these methods of hijacking the return address, going toward a solution that has only one method of doing this will make the kernel less complex. - Cleanup with guard() and free() helpers There were several places in the code that had a lot of "goto out" in the error paths to either unlock a lock or free some memory that was allocated. But this is error prone. Convert the code over to use the guard() and free() helpers that let the compiler unlock locks or free memory when the function exits. - Remove disabling of interrupts in the function graph tracer When function graph tracer was first introduced, it could race with interrupts and NMIs. To prevent that race, it would disable interrupts and not trace NMIs. But the code has changed to allow NMIs and also interrupts. This change was done a long time ago, but the disabling of interrupts was never removed. Remove the disabling of interrupts in the function graph tracer is it is not needed. This greatly improves its performance. - Allow the :mod: command to enable tracing module functions on the kernel command line. The function tracer already has a way to enable functions to be traced in modules by writing ":mod:<module>" into set_ftrace_filter. That will enable either all the functions for the module if it is loaded, or if it is not, it will cache that command, and when the module is loaded that matches <module>, its functions will be enabled. This also allows init functions to be traced. But currently events do not have that feature. Because enabling function tracing can be done very early at boot up (before scheduling is enabled), the commands that can be done when function tracing is started is limited. Having the ":mod:" command to trace module functions as they are loaded is very useful. Update the kernel command line function filtering to allow it. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iIoEABYIADIWIQRRSw7ePDh/lE+zeZMp5XQQmuv6qgUCZ42E2RQccm9zdGVkdEBn b29kbWlzLm9yZwAKCRAp5XQQmuv6qqXSAPwOMxuhye8tb1GYG62QD9+w7e6nOmlC 2GCPj4detnEM2QD/ciivkhespVKhHpZHRewAuSnJgHPSM45NQ3EVESzjWQ4= =snbx -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'ftrace-v6.14' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace Pull ftrace updates from Steven Rostedt: - Have fprobes built on top of function graph infrastructure The fprobe logic is an optimized kprobe that uses ftrace to attach to functions when a probe is needed at the start or end of the function.

powerpc: Add preempt lazy support
Define preempt lazy bit for Powerpc. Use bit 9 which is free and within 16 bit range of NEED_RESCHED, so compiler can issue single andi. Since Powerpc doesn't use the generic entry/exit, add lazy check at exit to user. CONFIG_PREEMPTION is defined for lazy/full/rt so use it for return to kernel. Ran a few benchmarks and db workload on Power10. Performance is close to preempt=none/voluntary. Since Powerpc systems can have large core count and large memory, preempt lazy is going to be helpful in avoiding soft lockup issues.

First step of consolidating the VDSO data page handling:
The VDSO data page handling is architecture specific for historical
reasons, but there is no real technical reason to do so.
Aside of that VDSO data has become a dump ground for various mechanisms
and fail to provide a clear separation of the functionalities.
Clean this up by:
* consolidating the VDSO page data by getting rid of architecture
specific warts especially in x86 and PowerPC.
* removing the last includes of header files which are pulling in other
headers outside of the VDSO namespace.
* seperating timekeeping and other VDSO data accordingly.
Further consolidation of the VDSO page handling is done in subsequent
changes scheduled for the next merge window.
This also lays the ground for expanding the VDSO time getters for
independent PTP clocks in a generic way without making every architecture
add support seperately.

crash, powerpc: default to CRASH_DUMP=n on PPC_BOOK3S_32
Fixes boot failures on 6.9 on PPC_BOOK3S_32 machines using Open Firmware.
On these machines, the kernel refuses to boot from non-zero
PHYSICAL_START, which occurs when CRASH_DUMP is on.
Since most PPC_BOOK3S_32 machines boot via Open Firmware, it should
default to off for them. Users booting via some other mechanism can still
turn it on explicitly.
Does not change the default on any other architectures for the
time being.

powerpc/ftrace: Add support for DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_DIRECT_CALLS
Add support for DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_DIRECT_CALLS similar to the arm64 implementation. ftrace direct calls allow custom trampolines to be called into directly from function ftrace call sites, bypassing the ftrace trampoline completely. This functionality is currently utilized by BPF trampolines to hook into kernel function entries. Since we have limited relative branch range, we support ftrace direct calls through support for DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_CALL_OPS. In this approach, ftrace trampoline is not entirely bypassed. Rather, it is re-purposed into a stub that reads direct_call field from the associated ftrace_ops structure and branches into that, if it is not NULL. For this, it is sufficient if we can ensure that the ftrace trampoline is reachable from all traceable functions. When multiple ftrace_ops are associated with a call site, we utilize a call back to set pt_regs->orig_gpr3 that can then be tested on the return path from the ftrace trampoline to branch into the direct caller.

powerpc/ftrace: Add support for DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_CALL_OPS
Implement support for DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_CALL_OPS similar to the arm64 implementation. This works by patching-in a pointer to an associated ftrace_ops structure before each traceable function. If multiple ftrace_ops are associated with a call site, then a special ftrace_list_ops is used to enable iterating over all the registered ftrace_ops. If no ftrace_ops are associated with a call site, then a special ftrace_nop_ops structure is used to render the ftrace call as a no-op. ftrace trampoline can then read the associated ftrace_ops for a call site by loading from an offset from the LR, and branch directly to the associated function. The primary advantage with this approach is that we don't have to iterate over all the registered ftrace_ops for call sites that have a single ftrace_ops registered. This is the equivalent of implementing support for dynamic ftrace trampolines, which set up a special ftrace trampoline for each registered ftrace_ops and have individual call sites branch into those directly. A secondary advantage is that this gives us a way to add support for direct ftrace callers without having to resort to using stubs. The address of the direct call trampoline can be loaded from the ftrace_ops structure. To support this, we reserve a nop before each function on 32-bit powerpc. For 64-bit powerpc, two nops are reserved before each out-of-line stub. During ftrace activation, we update this location with the associated ftrace_ops pointer. Then, on ftrace entry, we load from this location and call into ftrace_ops->func(). For 64-bit powerpc, we ensure that the out-of-line stub area is doubleword aligned so that ftrace_ops address can be updated atomically.

powerpc64/ftrace: Support .text larger than 32MB with out-of-line stubs
We are restricted to a .text size of ~32MB when using out-of-line function profile sequence. Allow this to be extended up to the previous limit of ~64MB by reserving space in the middle of .text. A new config option CONFIG_PPC_FTRACE_OUT_OF_LINE_NUM_RESERVE is introduced to specify the number of function stubs that are reserved in .text. On boot, ftrace utilizes stubs from this area first before using the stub area at the end of .text. A ppc64le defconfig has ~44k functions that can be traced. A more conservative value of 32k functions is chosen as the default value of PPC_FTRACE_OUT_OF_LINE_NUM_RESERVE so that we do not allot more space than necessary by default. If building a kernel that only has 32k trace-able functions, we won't allot any more space at the end of .text during the pass on vmlinux.o. Otherwise, only the remaining functions get space for stubs at the end of .text. This default value should help cover a .text size of ~48MB in total (including space reserved at the end of .text which can cover up to 32MB), which should be sufficient for most common builds. For a very small kernel build, this can be set to 0. Or, this can be bumped up to a larger value to support vmlinux .text size up to ~64MB.

powerpc64/ftrace: Move ftrace sequence out of line
Function profile sequence on powerpc includes two instructions at the beginning of each function: mflr r0 bl ftrace_caller The call to ftrace_caller() gets nop'ed out during kernel boot and is patched in when ftrace is enabled. Given the sequence, we cannot return from ftrace_caller with 'blr' as we need to keep LR and r0 intact. This results in link stack (return address predictor) imbalance when ftrace is enabled. To address that, we would like to use a three instruction sequence: mflr r0 bl ftrace_caller mtlr r0 Further more, to support DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_CALL_OPS, we need to reserve two instruction slots before the function. This results in a total of five instruction slots to be reserved for ftrace use on each function that is traced. Move the function profile sequence out-of-line to minimize its impact. To do this, we reserve a single nop at function entry using -fpatchable-function-entry=1 and add a pass on vmlinux.o to determine the total number of functions that can be traced. This is then used to generate a .S file reserving the appropriate amount of space for use as ftrace stubs, which is built and linked into vmlinux. On bootup, the stub space is split into separate stubs per function and populated with the proper instruction sequence. A pointer to the associated stub is maintained in dyn_arch_ftrace. For modules, space for ftrace stubs is reserved from the generic module stub space. This is restricted to and enabled by default only on 64-bit powerpc, though there are some changes to accommodate 32-bit powerpc. This is done so that 32-bit powerpc could choose to opt into this based on further tests and benchmarks. As an example, after this patch, kernel functions will have a single nop at function entry: <kernel_clone>: addis r2,r12,467 addi r2,r2,-16028 nop mfocrf r11,8 ... When ftrace is enabled, the nop is converted to an unconditional branch to the stub associated with that function: <kernel_clone>: addis r2,r12,467 addi r2,r2,-16028 b ftrace_ool_stub_text_end+0x11b28 mfocrf r11,8 ... The associated stub: <ftrace_ool_stub_text_end+0x11b28>: mflr r0 bl ftrace_caller mtlr r0 b kernel_clone+0xc ... This change showed an improvement of ~10% in null_syscall benchmark on a Power 10 system with ftrace enabled.

powerpc/ftrace: Add a postlink script to validate function tracer
Function tracer on powerpc can only work with vmlinux having a .text size of up to ~64MB due to powerpc branch instruction having a limited relative branch range of 32MB. Today, this is only detected on kernel boot when ftrace is init'ed. Add a post-link script to check the size of .text so that we can detect this at build time, and break the build if necessary. We add a dependency on !COMPILE_TEST for CONFIG_HAVE_FUNCTION_TRACER so that allyesconfig and other test builds can continue to work without enabling ftrace.

powerpc: Fix stack protector Kconfig test for clang
Clang's in-progress per-task stack protector support [1] does not work
with the current Kconfig checks because '-mstack-protector-guard-offset'
is not provided, unlike all other architecture Kconfig checks.
$ fd Kconfig -x rg -l mstack-protector-guard-offset
./arch/arm/Kconfig
./arch/riscv/Kconfig
./arch/arm64/Kconfig
This produces an error from clang, which is interpreted as the flags not
being supported at all when they really are.
$ clang --target=powerpc64-linux-gnu \
-mstack-protector-guard=tls \
-mstack-protector-guard-reg=r13 \
-c -o /dev/null -x c /dev/null
clang: error: '-mstack-protector-guard=tls' is used without '-mstack-protector-guard-offset', and there is no default
This argument will always be provided by the build system, so mirror
other architectures and use '-mstack-protector-guard-offset=0' for
testing support, which fixes the issue for clang and does not regress
support with GCC.
Even with the first problem addressed, the 32-bit test continues to fail
because Kbuild uses the powerpc64le-linux-gnu target for clang and
nothing flips the target to 32-bit, resulting in an error about an
invalid register valid:
$ clang --target=powerpc64le-linux-gnu \
-mstack-protector-guard=tls
-mstack-protector-guard-reg=r2 \
-mstack-protector-guard-offset=0 \
-x c -c -o /dev/null /dev/null
clang: error: invalid value 'r2' in 'mstack-protector-guard-reg=', expected one of: r13
While GCC allows arbitrary registers, the implementation of
'-mstack-protector-guard=tls' in LLVM shares the same code path as the
user space thread local storage implementation, which uses a fixed
register (2 for 32-bit and 13 for 62-bit), so the command line parsing
enforces this limitation.
Use the Kconfig macro '$(m32-flag)', which expands to '-m32' when
supported, in the stack protector support cc-option call to properly
switch the target to a 32-bit one, which matches what happens in Kbuild.
While the 64-bit macro does not strictly need it, add the equivalent
64-bit option for symmetry.

Pull random number generator updates from Jason Donenfeld:
"Originally I'd planned on sending each of the vDSO getrandom()
architecture ports to their respective arch trees. But as we started
to work on this, we found lots of interesting issues in the shared
code and infrastructure, the fixes for which the various archs needed
to base their work.
So in the end, this turned into a nice collaborative effort fixing up
issues and porting to 5 new architectures -- arm64, powerpc64,
powerpc32, s390x, and loongarch64 -- with everybody pitching in and
commenting on each other's code. It was a fun development cycle.
This contains:
- Numerous fixups to the vDSO selftest infrastructure, getting it
running successfully on more platforms, and fixing bugs in it.
- Additions to the vDSO getrandom & chacha selftests. Basically every
time manual review unearthed a bug in a revision of an arch patch,
or an ambiguity, the tests were augmented.
By the time the last arch was submitted for review, s390x, v1 of
the series was essentially fine right out of the gate.
- Fixes to the the generic C implementation of vDSO getrandom, to
build and run successfully on all archs, decoupling it from
assumptions we had (unintentionally) made on x86_64 that didn't
carry through to the other architectures.
- Port of vDSO getrandom to LoongArch64, from Xi Ruoyao and acked by
Huacai Chen.
- Port of vDSO getrandom to ARM64, from Adhemerval Zanella and acked
by Will Deacon.
- Port of vDSO getrandom to PowerPC, in both 32-bit and 64-bit
varieties, from Christophe Leroy and acked by Michael Ellerman.
- Port of vDSO getrandom to S390X from Heiko Carstens, the arch
maintainer.
While it'd be natural for there to be things to fix up over the course
of the development cycle, these patches got a decent amount of review
from a fairly diverse crew of folks on the mailing lists, and, for the
most part, they've been cooking in linux-next, which has been helpful
for ironing out build issues.
In terms of architectures, I think that mostly takes care of the
important 64-bit archs with hardware still being produced and running
production loads in settings where vDSO getrandom is likely to help.
Arguably there's still RISC-V left, and we'll see for 6.13 whether
they find it useful and submit a port"

powerpc/vdso: Wire up getrandom() vDSO implementation on VDSO32
To be consistent with other VDSO functions, the function is called __kernel_getrandom() __arch_chacha20_blocks_nostack() fonction is implemented basically with 32 bits operations. It performs 4 QUARTERROUND operations in parallele. There are enough registers to avoid using the stack: On input: r3: output bytes r4: 32-byte key input r5: 8-byte counter input/output r6: number of 64-byte blocks to write to output During operation: stack: pointer to counter (r5) and non-volatile registers (r14-131) r0: counter of blocks (initialised with r6) r4: Value '4' after key has been read, used for indexing r5-r12: key r14-r15: block counter r16-r31: chacha state At the end: r0, r6-r12: Zeroised r5, r14-r31: Restored Performance on powerpc 885 (using kernel selftest): ~# ./vdso_test_getrandom bench-single vdso: 25000000 times in 62.938002291 seconds libc: 25000000 times in 535.581916866 seconds syscall: 25000000 times in 531.525042806 seconds Performance on powerpc 8321 (using kernel selftest): ~# ./vdso_test_getrandom bench-single vdso: 25000000 times in 16.899318858 seconds libc: 25000000 times in 131.050596522 seconds syscall: 25000000 times in 129.794790389 seconds This first patch adds support for VDSO32. As selftests cannot easily be generated only for VDSO32, and because the following patch brings support for VDSO64 anyway, this patch opts out all code in __arch_chacha20_blocks_nostack() so that vdso_test_chacha will not fail to compile and will not crash on PPC64/PPC64LE, allthough the selftest itself will fail.

dma-mapping: clearly mark DMA ops as an architecture feature
DMA ops are a helper for architectures and not for drivers to override the DMA implementation. Unfortunately driver authors keep ignoring this. Make the fact more clear by renaming the symbol to ARCH_HAS_DMA_OPS and having the two drivers overriding their dma_ops depend on that. These drivers should probably be marked broken, but we can give them a bit of a grace period for that.

powerpc/32s: Reduce default size of module/execmem area
book3s/32 platforms have usually more memory than 8xx, but it is still not worth reserving a full segment (256 Mbytes) for module text. 64Mbytes should be far enough.

powerpc/8xx: Reduce default size of module/execmem area
8xx boards don't have much memory, the two I know have respectively 32Mbytes and 128Mbytes, so there is no point in having 256 Mbytes of memory for module text. Reduce it to 32Mbytes for 8xx, that's more than enough. Nevertheless, make it a configurable value so that it can be customised if needed.

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. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iHUEABYKAB0WIQTTMBEPP41GrTpTJgfdBJ7gKXxAjgUCZp2C+QAKCRDdBJ7gKXxA joTkAQDvjqOoFStqk4GU3OXMYB7WCU/ZQMFG0iuu1EEwTVDZ4QEA8CnG7seek1R3 xEoo+vw0sWWeLV3qzsxnCA1BJ8cTJA8= =z0Lf -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'mm-stable-2024-07-21-14-50' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton: - In the series "mm: Avoid possible overflows in dirty throttling" Jan Kara addresses a couple of issues in the writeback throttling code.

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. - 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. * tag 'mm-stable-2024-07-21-14-50' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm: (411 commits) mm/mglru: fix ineffective protection calculation mm/zswap: fix a white space issue mm/hugetlb: fix kernel NULL pointer dereference when migrating hugetlb folio mm/hugetlb: fix possible recursive locking detected warning mm/gup: clear the LRU flag of a page before adding to LRU batch mm/numa_balancing: teach mpol_to_str about the balancing mode mm: memcg1: convert charge move flags to unsigned long long alloc_tag: fix page_ext_get/page_ext_put sequence during page splitting lib: reuse page_ext_data() to obtain codetag_ref lib: add missing newline character in the warning message mm/mglru: fix overshooting shrinker memory mm/mglru: fix div-by-zero in vmpressure_calc_level() mm/kmemleak: replace strncpy() with strscpy() mm, page_alloc: put should_fail_alloc_page() back behing CONFIG_FAIL_PAGE_ALLOC mm, slab: put should_failslab() back behind CONFIG_SHOULD_FAILSLAB mm: ignore data-race in __swap_writepage hugetlbfs: ensure generic_hugetlb_get_unmapped_area() returns higher address than mmap_min_addr mm: shmem: rename mTHP shmem counters mm: swap_state: use folio_alloc_mpol() in __read_swap_cache_async() mm/migrate: putback split folios when numa hint migration fails ... |

treewide: change conditional prompt for choices to 'depends on'
While Documentation/kbuild/kconfig-language.rst provides a brief
explanation, there are recurring confusions regarding the usage of a
prompt followed by 'if <expr>'. This conditional controls _only_ the
prompt.
A typical usage is as follows:
menuconfig BLOCK
bool "Enable the block layer" if EXPERT
default y
When EXPERT=n, the prompt is hidden, but this config entry is still
active, and BLOCK is set to its default value 'y'. This is reasonable
because you are likely want to enable the block device support. When
EXPERT=y, the prompt is shown, allowing you to toggle BLOCK.
Please note that it is different from 'depends on EXPERT', which would
enable and disable the entire config entry.
However, this conditional prompt has never worked in a choice block.
The following two work in the same way: when EXPERT is disabled, the
choice block is entirely disabled.
[Test Code 1]
choice
prompt "choose" if EXPERT
config A
bool "A"
config B
bool "B"
endchoice
[Test Code 2]
choice
prompt "choose"
depends on EXPERT
config A
bool "A"
config B
bool "B"
endchoice
I believe the first case should hide only the prompt, producing the
default:
CONFIG_A=y
# CONFIG_B is not set
The next commit will change (fix) the behavior of the conditional prompt
in choice blocks.
I see several choice blocks wrongly using a conditional prompt, where
'depends on' makes more sense.
To preserve the current behavior, this commit converts such misuses.
I did not touch the following entry in arch/x86/Kconfig:
choice
prompt "Memory split" if EXPERT
default VMSPLIT_3G
This is truly the correct use of the conditional prompt; when EXPERT=n,
this choice block should silently select the reasonable VMSPLIT_3G,
although the resulting PAGE_OFFSET will not be affected anyway.
Presumably, the one in fs/jffs2/Kconfig is also correct, but I converted
it to 'depends on' to avoid any potential behavioral change.

powerpc: Replace CONFIG_4xx with CONFIG_44x
Replace 4xx usage with 44x, and replace 4xx_SOC with 44x. Also, as pointed out by Christophe, if 44x || BOOKE can be simplified to just test BOOKE, because 44x always selects BOOKE. Retain the CONFIG_4xx symbol, as there are drivers that use it to mean 4xx || 44x, those will need updating before CONFIG_4xx can be removed.

powerpc: Limit ARCH_HAS_KERNEL_FPU_SUPPORT to PPC64
When building a 32-bit kernel, some toolchains do not allow mixing soft
float and hard float object files:
LD vmlinux.o
powerpc64le-unknown-linux-musl-ld: lib/test_fpu_impl.o uses hard float, arch/powerpc/kernel/udbg.o uses soft float
powerpc64le-unknown-linux-musl-ld: failed to merge target specific data of file lib/test_fpu_impl.o
make[2]: *** [scripts/Makefile.vmlinux_o:62: vmlinux.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** [Makefile:1152: vmlinux_o] Error 2
make: *** [Makefile:240: __sub-make] Error 2
This is not an issue when building a 64-bit kernel. To unbreak the
build, limit ARCH_HAS_KERNEL_FPU_SUPPORT to 64-bit kernels. This is okay
because the only real user of this option, amdgpu, was previously
limited to PPC64 anyway; see commit

powerpc updates for 6.10
- Enable BPF Kernel Functions (kfuncs) in the powerpc BPF JIT.
- Allow per-process DEXCR (Dynamic Execution Control Register) settings via
prctl, notably NPHIE which controls hashst/hashchk for ROP protection.
- Install powerpc selftests in sub-directories. Note this changes the way
run_kselftest.sh needs to be invoked for powerpc selftests.

Merge tag 'powerpc-6.10-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/powerpc/linux
Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
- Enable BPF Kernel Functions (kfuncs) in the powerpc BPF JIT.
- Allow per-process DEXCR (Dynamic Execution Control Register) settings
via prctl, notably NPHIE which controls hashst/hashchk for ROP
protection.
- Install powerpc selftests in sub-directories. Note this changes the
way run_kselftest.sh needs to be invoked for powerpc selftests.
- Change fadump (Firmware Assisted Dump) to better handle memory
add/remove.
- Add support for passing additional parameters to the fadump kernel.
- Add support for updating the kdump image on CPU/memory add/remove
events.
- Other small features, cleanups and fixes.
