x86/early_printk: Use 'mmio32' for consistency, fix comments
First of all, using 'mmio' prevents proper implementation of 8-bit accessors.
Second, it's simply inconsistent with uart8250 set of options. Rename it to
'mmio32'. While at it, remove rather misleading comment in the documentation.
From now on mmio32 is self-explanatory and pciserial supports not only 32-bit
MMIO accessors.
Also, while at it, fix the comment for the "pciserial" case. The comment
seems to be a copy'n'paste error when mentioning "serial" instead of
"pciserial" (with double quotes). Fix this.
With that, move it upper, so we don't calculate 'buf' twice.
Fixes:

Persistent buffer cleanups and simplifications for v6.15:
It was mistaken that the physical memory returned from "reserve_mem" had to
be vmap()'d to get to it from a virtual address. But reserve_mem already
maps the memory to the virtual address of the kernel so a simple
phys_to_virt() can be used to get to the virtual address from the physical
memory returned by "reserve_mem". With this new found knowledge, the
code can be cleaned up and simplified.
- Enforce that the persistent memory is page aligned
As the buffers using the persistent memory are all going to be
mapped via pages, make sure that the memory given to the tracing
infrastructure is page aligned. If it is not, it will print a warning
and fail to map the buffer.
- Use phys_to_virt() to get the virtual address from reserve_mem
Instead of calling vmap() on the physical memory returned from
"reserve_mem", use phys_to_virt() instead.
As the memory returned by "memmap" or any other means where a physical
address is given to the tracing infrastructure, it still needs to
be vmap(). Since this memory can never be returned back to the buddy
allocator nor should it ever be memmory mapped to user space, flag
this buffer and up the ref count. The ref count will keep it from
ever being freed, and the flag will prevent it from ever being memory
mapped to user space.
- Use vmap_page_range() for memmap virtual address mapping
For the memmap buffer, instead of allocating an array of struct pages,
assigning them to the contiguous phsycial memory and then passing that to
vmap(), use vmap_page_range() instead
- Replace flush_dcache_folio() with flush_kernel_vmap_range()
Instead of calling virt_to_folio() and passing that to
flush_dcache_folio(), just call flush_kernel_vmap_range() directly.
This also fixes a bug where if a subbuffer was bigger than PAGE_SIZE
only the PAGE_SIZE portion would be flushed.

- 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. This patchset provides small (0-10%) improvements on one microbenchmark. - The 5 patch series "Docs/mm/damon: misc DAMOS filters documentation fixes and improves" from SeongJae Park does some maintenance work on the DAMON docs. - The 27 patch series "hugetlb/CMA improvements for large systems" from Frank van der Linden addresses a pile of issues which have been observed when using CMA on large machines. - The 2 patch series "mm/damon: introduce DAMOS filter type for unmapped pages" from SeongJae Park enables users of DMAON/DAMOS to filter my the page's mapped/unmapped status. - The 19 patch series "zsmalloc/zram: there be preemption" from Sergey Senozhatsky teaches zram to run its compression and decompression operations preemptibly. - The 12 patch series "selftests/mm: Some cleanups from trying to run them" from Brendan Jackman fixes a pile of unrelated issues which Brendan encountered while runnimg our selftests. - The 2 patch series "fs/proc/task_mmu: add guard region bit to pagemap" from Lorenzo Stoakes permits userspace to use /proc/pid/pagemap to determine whether a particular page is a guard page. - The 7 patch series "mm, swap: remove swap slot cache" from Kairui Song removes the swap slot cache from the allocation path - it simply wasn't being effective. - The 5 patch series "mm: cleanups for device-exclusive entries (hmm)" from David Hildenbrand implements a number of unrelated cleanups in this code. - The 5 patch series "mm: Rework generic PTDUMP configs" from Anshuman Khandual implements a number of preparatoty cleanups to the GENERIC_PTDUMP Kconfig logic. - The 8 patch series "mm/damon: auto-tune aggregation interval" from SeongJae Park implements a feedback-driven automatic tuning feature for DAMON's aggregation interval tuning. - The 5 patch series "Fix lazy mmu mode" from Ryan Roberts fixes some issues in powerpc, sparc and x86 lazy MMU implementations. Ryan did this in preparation for implementing lazy mmu mode for arm64 to optimize vmalloc. - The 2 patch series "mm/page_alloc: Some clarifications for migratetype fallback" from Brendan Jackman reworks some commentary to make the code easier to follow. - The 3 patch series "page_counter cleanup and size reduction" from Shakeel Butt cleans up the page_counter code and fixes a size increase which we accidentally added late last year. - The 3 patch series "Add a command line option that enables control of how many threads should be used to allocate huge pages" from Thomas Prescher does that.

This has caused a small amount of fallout - two or three issues were reported. In all cases the calling code was found to be incorrect. - The series "Some cleanup for memcg" from Chen Ridong implements some relatively monir cleanups for the memcontrol code. - The 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 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 series "mm: further simplify VMA merge operation" from Lorenzo Stoakes implements numerous simplifications in this area. No runtime effects are anticipated. - The series "mm/madvise: remove redundant mmap_lock operations from process_madvise()" from SeongJae Park rationalizes the locking in the madvise() implementation.

s390/smp: Add support for HOTPLUG_SMT
Add support for HOTPLUG_SMT. With this the s390 specific "nosmt" kernel command line parameter handling is replaced with common code handling. This means that just specifying "nosmt" still enables smt from an architectural point of view, however only the primary (base) cpu can be set online. Enabling smt during runtime via /sys/devices/system/cpu/smt/control allows to set secondary cpus online. This way "nosmt" works like on other architectures where enabling and disabling smt during runtime is possible. If "nosmt=force" is specified smt is also still enabled from an architectural point of view, but there is no way to set secondary cpus online during runtime, also like on other architectures. In order to disable smt from architectural point of view, which was previously achieved with the s390 specific "nosmt" command line option, "smt=1" can be used.

tracing updates for v6.15:
- Add option traceoff_after_boot In order to debug kernel boot, it sometimes is helpful to enable tracing via the kernel command line. Unfortunately, by the time the login prompt appears, the trace is overwritten by the init process and other user space start up applications. Adding a "traceoff_after_boot" will disable tracing when the kernel passes control to init which will allow developers to be able to see the traces that occurred during boot. - Clean up the mmflags macros that display the GFP flags in trace events The macros to print the GFP flags for trace events had a bit of duplication. The code was restructured to remove duplication and in the process it also adds some flags that were missed before. - Removed some dead code and scripts/draw_functrace.py draw_functrace.py hasn't worked in years and as nobody complained about it, remove it. - Constify struct event_trigger_ops The event_trigger_ops is just a structure that has function pointers that are assigned when the variables are created.

Power management updates for 6.15-rc1
- Manage sysfs attributes and boost frequencies efficiently from
cpufreq core to reduce boilerplate code in drivers (Viresh Kumar).
- Minor cleanups to cpufreq drivers (Aaron Kling, Benjamin Schneider,
Dhananjay Ugwekar, Imran Shaik, zuoqian).
- Migrate some cpufreq drivers to using for_each_present_cpu() (Jacky
Bai).
- cpufreq-qcom-hw DT binding fixes (Krzysztof Kozlowski).
- Use str_enable_disable() helper in cpufreq_online() (Lifeng Zheng).
- Optimize the amd-pstate driver to avoid cases where call paths end
up calling the same writes multiple times and needlessly caching
variables through code reorganization, locking overhaul and tracing
adjustments (Mario Limonciello, Dhananjay Ugwekar).
- Make it possible to avoid enabling capacity-aware scheduling (CAS) in
the intel_pstate driver and relocate a check for out-of-band (OOB)
platform handling in it to make it detect OOB before checking HWP
availability (Rafael Wysocki).
- Fix dbs_update() to avoid inadvertent conversions of negative integer
values to unsigned int which causes CPU frequency selection to be
inaccurate in some cases when the "conservative" cpufreq governor is
in use (Jie Zhan).
- Update the handling of the most recent idle intervals in the menu
cpuidle governor to prevent useful information from being discarded
by it in some cases and improve the prediction accuracy (Rafael
Wysocki).
- Make it possible to tell the intel_idle driver to ignore its built-in
table of idle states for the given processor, clean up the handling
of auto-demotion disabling on Baytrail and Cherrytrail chips in it,
and update its MAINTAINERS entry (David Arcari, Artem Bityutskiy,
Rafael Wysocki).
- Make some cpuidle drivers use for_each_present_cpu() instead of
for_each_possible_cpu() during initialization to avoid issues
occurring when nosmp or maxcpus=0 are used (Jacky Bai).
- Clean up the Energy Model handling code somewhat (Rafael Wysocki).
- Use kfree_rcu() to simplify the handling of runtime Energy Model
updates (Li RongQing).
- Add an entry for the Energy Model framework to MAINTAINERS as
properly maintained (Lukasz Luba).
- Address RCU-related sparse warnings in the Energy Model code (Rafael
Wysocki).
- Remove ENERGY_MODEL dependency on SMP and allow it to be selected
when DEVFREQ is set without CPUFREQ so it can be used on a wider
range of systems (Jeson Gao).
- Unify error handling during runtime suspend and runtime resume in the
core to help drivers to implement more consistent runtime PM error
handling (Rafael Wysocki).
- Drop a redundant check from pm_runtime_force_resume() and rearrange
documentation related to __pm_runtime_disable() (Rafael Wysocki).
- Rework the handling of the "smart suspend" driver flag in the PM core
to avoid issues hat may occur when drivers using it depend on some
other drivers and clean up the related PM core code (Rafael Wysocki,
Colin Ian King).
- Fix the handling of devices with the power.direct_complete flag set
if device_suspend() returns an error for at least one device to avoid
situations in which some of them may not be resumed (Rafael Wysocki).
- Use mutex_trylock() in hibernate_compressor_param_set() to avoid a
possible deadlock that may occur if the "compressor" hibernation
module parameter is accessed during the registration of a new
ieee80211 device (Lizhi Xu).
- Suppress sleeping parent warning in device_pm_add() in the case when
new children are added under a device with the power.direct_complete
set after it has been processed by device_resume() (Xu Yang).
- Remove needless return in three void functions related to system
wakeup (Zijun Hu).
- Replace deprecated kmap_atomic() with kmap_local_page() in the
hibernation core code (David Reaver).
- Remove unused helper functions related to system sleep (David Alan
Gilbert).
- Clean up s2idle_enter() so it does not lock and unlock CPU offline
in vain and update comments in it (Ulf Hansson).
- Clean up broken white space in dpm_wait_for_children() (Geert
Uytterhoeven).
- Update the cpupower utility to fix lib version-ing in it and memory
leaks in error legs, remove hard-coded values, and implement CPU
physical core querying (Thomas Renninger, John B. Wyatt IV, Shuah
Khan, Yiwei Lin, Zhongqiu Han).

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"These are dominated by cpufreq updates which in turn are dominated by
updates related to boost support in the core and drivers and
amd-pstate driver optimizations.
Apart from the above, there are some cpuidle updates including a
rework of the most recent idle intervals handling in the venerable
menu governor that leads to significant improvements in some
performance benchmarks, as the governor is now more likely to predict
a shorter idle duration in some cases, and there are updates of the
core device power management code, mostly related to system suspend
and resume, that should help to avoid potential issues arising when
the drivers of devices depending on one another want to use different
optimizations.
There is also a usual collection of assorted fixes and cleanups,
including removal of some unused code.

x86/early_printk: Add support for MMIO-based UARTs
During the bring-up of an x86 board, the kernel was crashing before
reaching the platform's console driver because of a bug in the firmware,
leaving no trace of the boot progress.
The only available method to debug the kernel boot process was via the
platform's MMIO-based UART, as the board lacked an I/O port-based UART,
PCI UART, or functional video output.
Then it turned out that earlyprintk= does not have a knob to configure
the MMIO-mapped UART.
Extend the early printk facility to support platform MMIO-based UARTs
on x86 systems, enabling debugging during the system bring-up phase.
The command line syntax to enable platform MMIO-based UART is:
earlyprintk=mmio,membase[,{nocfg|baudrate}][,keep]
Note, the change does not integrate MMIO-based UART support to:
arch/x86/boot/early_serial_console.c
Also, update kernel parameters documentation with the new syntax and
add the missing 'nocfg' setting to the PCI serial cards description.

RCU pull request for v6.15
This pull request contains the following branches:
docs.2025.02.04a:
- Add broken-timing possibility to stallwarn.rst.
- Improve discussion of this_cpu_ptr(), add raw_cpu_ptr().
- Document self-propagating callbacks.
- Point call_srcu() to call_rcu() for detailed memory ordering.
- Add CONFIG_RCU_LAZY delays to call_rcu() kernel-doc header.
- Clarify RCU_LAZY and RCU_LAZY_DEFAULT_OFF help text.
- Remove references to old grace-period-wait primitives.
srcu.2025.02.05a:
- Introduce srcu_read_{un,}lock_fast(), which is similar to
srcu_read_{un,}lock_lite(): avoid smp_mb()s in lock and unlock at the
cost of calling synchronize_rcu() in synchronize_srcu(). Moreover, by
returning the percpu offset of the counter at srcu_read_lock_fast()
time, srcu_read_unlock_fast() can save extra pointer dereferencing,
which makes it faster than srcu_read_{un,}lock_lite().
srcu_read_{un,}lock_fast() are intended to replace
rcu_read_{un,}lock_trace() if possible.
torture.2025.02.05a:
- Add get_torture_init_jiffies() to return the start time of the test.
- Add a test_boost_holdoff module parameter to allow delaying boosting
tests when building rcutorture as built-in.
- Add grace period sequence number logging at the beginning and end of
failure/close-call results.
- Switch to hexadecimal for the expedited grace period sequence number
in the rcu_exp_grace_period trace point.
- Make cur_ops->format_gp_seqs take buffer length.
- Move RCU_TORTURE_TEST_{CHK_RDR_STATE,LOG_CPU} to bool.
- Complain when invalid SRCU reader_flavor is specified.
- Add FORCE_NEED_SRCU_NMI_SAFE Kconfig for testing, which forces SRCU
uses atomics even when percpu ops are NMI safe, and use the Kconfig
for SRCU lockdep testing.
misc.2025.03.04a:
- Split rcu_report_exp_cpu_mult() mask parameter and use for tracing.
- Remove READ_ONCE() for rdp->gpwrap access in __note_gp_changes().
- Fix get_state_synchronize_rcu_full() GP-start detection.
- Move RCU Tasks self-tests to core_initcall().
- Print segment lengths in show_rcu_nocb_gp_state().
- Make RCU watch ct_kernel_exit_state() warning.
- Flush console log from kernel_power_off().
- rcutorture: Allow a negative value for nfakewriters.
- rcu: Update TREE05.boot to test normal synchronize_rcu().
- rcu: Use _full() API to debug synchronize_rcu().
lazypreempt.2025.03.04a: Make RCU handle PREEMPT_LAZY better:
- Fix header guard for rcu_all_qs().
- rcu: Rename PREEMPT_AUTO to PREEMPT_LAZY.
- Update __cond_resched comment about RCU quiescent states.
- Handle unstable rdp in rcu_read_unlock_strict().
- Handle quiescent states for PREEMPT_RCU=n, PREEMPT_COUNT=y.
- osnoise: Provide quiescent states.
- Adjust rcutorture with possible PREEMPT_RCU=n && PREEMPT_COUNT=y
combination.
- Limit PREEMPT_RCU configurations.
- Make rcutorture senario TREE07 and senario TREE10 use PREEMPT_LAZY=y.

It has been a reasonably busy cycle for docs...
- Significant changes throughout the tree to bring Python code up to
current standards and raise the minimum Python required to 3.9. Much of
this is preparatory to replacing the ancient Perl scripts/kernel-doc
horror with a slightly less horrifying Python implementation, expected
for 6.16.
- Update the minimum Sphinx required to 3.4.3, allowing us to remove a
bunch of older compatibility code.
- Rework and improve the generation of the ABI documentation.
(All of the above done by Mauro)
- Lots of translation updates. Alex Shi and Yanteng Si are taking on
responsibility for the Chinese translations going forward; that work will
still get to you via docs-next
- Try to standardize the format for indicating a developer's affiliation in
commit tags.
- Clarify the TAB's role in CoC enforcement actions.
- Try to spell out the rules for when a commit tag can name another
developer without their explicit permission.
Plus lots of other typo fixes and updates.

reboot: add support for configuring emergency hardware protection action
We currently leave the decision of whether to shutdown or reboot to protect hardware in an emergency situation to the individual drivers. This works out in some cases, where the driver detecting the critical failure has inside knowledge: It binds to the system management controller for example or is guided by hardware description that defines what to do. In the general case, however, the driver detecting the issue can't know what the appropriate course of action is and shouldn't be dictating the policy of dealing with it. Therefore, add a global hw_protection toggle that allows the user to specify whether shutdown or reboot should be the default action when the driver doesn't set policy. This introduces no functional change yet as hw_protection_trigger() has no callers, but these will be added in subsequent commits.

mm/hugetlb: add hugetlb_cma_only cmdline option
Add an option to force hugetlb gigantic pages to be allocated using CMA only (if hugetlb_cma is enabled). This avoids a fallback to allocation from the rest of system memory if the CMA allocation fails. This makes the size of hugetlb_cma a hard upper boundary for gigantic hugetlb page allocations. This is useful because, with a large CMA area, the kernel's unmovable allocations will have less room to work with and it is undesirable for new hugetlb gigantic page allocations to be done from that remaining area. It will eat in to the space available for unmovable allocations, leading to unwanted system behavior (OOMs because the kernel fails to do unmovable allocations). So, with this enabled, an administrator can force a hard upper bound for runtime gigantic page allocations, and have more predictable system behavior.

mm/hugetlb: convert cmdline parameters from setup to early
Convert the cmdline parameters (hugepagesz, hugepages, default_hugepagesz and hugetlb_free_vmemmap) to early parameters. Since parse_early_param might run before MMU setups on some platforms (powerpc), validation of huge page sizes as specified in command line parameters would fail. So instead, for the hstate-related values, just record the them and parse them on demand, from hugetlb_bootmem_alloc. The allocation of hugetlb bootmem pages is now done in hugetlb_bootmem_alloc, which is called explicitly at the start of mm_core_init(). core_initcall would be too late, as that happens with memblock already torn down. This change will allow earlier allocation and initialization of bootmem hugetlb pages later on. No functional change intended.

x86/bugs: Make spectre user default depend on MITIGATION_SPECTRE_V2
Change the default value of spectre v2 in user mode to respect the CONFIG_MITIGATION_SPECTRE_V2 config option. Currently, user mode spectre v2 is set to auto (SPECTRE_V2_USER_CMD_AUTO) by default, even if CONFIG_MITIGATION_SPECTRE_V2 is disabled. Set the spectre_v2 value to auto (SPECTRE_V2_USER_CMD_AUTO) if the Spectre v2 config (CONFIG_MITIGATION_SPECTRE_V2) is enabled, otherwise set the value to none (SPECTRE_V2_USER_CMD_NONE). Important to say the command line argument "spectre_v2_user" overwrites the default value in both cases. When CONFIG_MITIGATION_SPECTRE_V2 is not set, users have the flexibility to opt-in for specific mitigations independently. In this scenario, setting spectre_v2= will not enable spectre_v2_user=, and command line options spectre_v2_user and spectre_v2 are independent when CONFIG_MITIGATION_SPECTRE_V2=n.

x86/smp: Drop 32-bit "bigsmp" machine support
The x86-32 kernel used to support multiple platforms with more than eight logical CPUs, from the 1999-2003 timeframe: Sequent NUMA-Q, IBM Summit, Unisys ES7000 and HP F8. Support for all except the latter was dropped back in 2014, leaving only the F8 based DL740 and DL760 G2 machines in this catery, with up to eight single-core Socket-603 Xeon-MP processors with hyperthreading. Like the already removed machines, the HP F8 servers at the time cost upwards of $100k in typical configurations, but were quickly obsoleted by their 64-bit Socket-604 cousins and the AMD Opteron. Earlier servers with up to 8 Pentium Pro or Xeon processors remain fully supported as they had no hyperthreading. Similarly, the more common 4-socket Xeon-MP machines with hyperthreading using Intel or ServerWorks chipsets continue to work without this, and all the multi-core Xeon processors also run 64-bit kernels. While the "bigsmp" support can also be used to run on later 64-bit machines (including VM guests), it seems best to discourage that and get any remaining users to update their kernels to 64-bit builds on these. As a side-effect of this, there is also no more need to support NUMA configurations on 32-bit x86, as all true 32-bit NUMA platforms are already gone.

tracing: Add traceoff_after_boot option
Sometimes tracing is used to debug issues during the boot process. Since the trace buffer has a limited amount of storage, it may be prudent to disable tracing after the boot is finished, otherwise the critical information may be overwritten. With this option, the main tracing buffer will be turned off at the end of the boot process.

cpufreq: intel_pstate: Make it possible to avoid enabling CAS
Capacity-aware scheduling (CAS) is enabled by default by intel_pstate on hybrid systems without SMT, but in some usage scenarios it may be more attractive to place tasks for maximum CPU performance regardless of the extra cost in terms of energy, which is the case on such systems when CAS is not enabled, so introduce a command line option to forbid intel_pstate to enable CAS.

rcutorture: Add a test_boost_holdoff module parameter
This commit adds a test_boost_holdoff module parameter that tells the RCU priority-boosting tests to wait for the specified number of seconds past the start of the rcutorture test. This can be useful when rcutorture is built into the kernel (as opposed to being modprobed), especially on large systems where early start of RCU priority boosting can delay the boot sequence, which adds a full CPU's worth of load onto the system. This can in turn result in pointless stall warnings. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Boqun Feng <boqun.feng@gmail.com> |

KVM/arm64 updates for 6.14
* New features:
- Support for non-protected guest in protected mode, achieving near
feature parity with the non-protected mode
- Support for the EL2 timers as part of the ongoing NV support
- Allow control of hardware tracing for nVHE/hVHE
* Improvements, fixes and cleanups:
- Massive cleanup of the debug infrastructure, making it a bit less
awkward and definitely easier to maintain. This should pave the
way for further optimisations
- Complete rewrite of pKVM's fixed-feature infrastructure, aligning
it with the rest of KVM and making the code easier to follow
- Large simplification of pKVM's memory protection infrastructure
- Better handling of RES0/RES1 fields for memory-backed system
registers
- Add a workaround for Qualcomm's Snapdragon X CPUs, which suffer
from a pretty nasty timer bug
- Small collection of cleanups and low-impact fixes

mm: add build-time option for hotplug memory default online type
Memory hotplug presently auto-onlines memory into a zone the kernel deems
appropriate if CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG_DEFAULT_ONLINE=y.
The memhp_default_state boot param enables runtime config, but it's not
possible to do this at build-time.
Remove CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG_DEFAULT_ONLINE, and replace it with
CONFIG_MHP_DEFAULT_ONLINE_TYPE_* choices that sync with the boot param.
Selections:
CONFIG_MHP_DEFAULT_ONLINE_TYPE_OFFLINE
=> mhp_default_online_type = "offline"
Memory will not be onlined automatically.
CONFIG_MHP_DEFAULT_ONLINE_TYPE_ONLINE_AUTO
=> mhp_default_online_type = "online"
Memory will be onlined automatically in a zone deemed.
appropriate by the kernel.
CONFIG_MHP_DEFAULT_ONLINE_TYPE_ONLINE_KERNEL
=> mhp_default_online_type = "online_kernel"
Memory will be onlined automatically.
The zone may allow kernel data (e.g. ZONE_NORMAL).
CONFIG_MHP_DEFAULT_ONLINE_TYPE_ONLINE_MOVABLE
=> mhp_default_online_type = "online_movable"
Memory will be onlined automatically.
The zone will be ZONE_MOVABLE.
Default to CONFIG_MHP_DEFAULT_ONLINE_TYPE_OFFLINE to match the existing
default CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG_DEFAULT_ONLINE=n behavior.
Existing users of CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG_DEFAULT_ONLINE=y should use
CONFIG_MHP_DEFAULT_ONLINE_TYPE_ONLINE_AUTO.

Pull pci updates from Bjorn Helgaas:
"Enumeration:
- Batch sizing of multiple BARs while memory decoding is disabled
instead of disabling/enabling decoding for each BAR individually;
this optimizes virtualized environments where toggling decoding
enable is expensive (Alex Williamson)
- Add host bridge .enable_device() and .disable_device() hooks for
bridges that need to configure things like Requester ID to StreamID
mapping when enabling devices (Frank Li)
- Extend struct pci_ecam_ops with .enable_device() and
.disable_device() hooks so drivers that use pci_host_common_probe()
instead of their own .probe() have a way to set the
.enable_device() callbacks (Marc Zyngier)
- Drop 'No bus range found' message so we don't complain when DTs
don't specify the default 'bus-range = <0x00 0xff>' (Bjorn Helgaas)
- Rename the drivers/pci/of_property.c struct of_pci_range to
of_pci_range_entry to avoid confusion with the global of_pci_range
in include/linux/of_address.h (Bjorn Helgaas)
Driver binding:
- Update resource request API documentation to encourage callers to
supply a driver name when requesting resources (Philipp Stanner)
- Export pci_intx_unmanaged() and pcim_intx() (always managed) so
callers of pci_intx() (which is sometimes managed) can explicitly
choose the one they need (Philipp Stanner)
- Convert drivers from pci_intx() to always-managed pcim_intx() or
never-managed pci_intx_unmanaged(): amd_sfh, ata (ahci, ata_piix,
pata_rdc, sata_sil24, sata_sis, sata_uli, sata_vsc), bnx2x, bna,
ntb, qtnfmac, rtsx, tifm_7xx1, vfio, xen-pciback (Philipp Stanner)
- Remove pci_intx_unmanaged() since pci_intx() is now always
unmanaged and pcim_intx() is always managed (Philipp Stanner)
Error handling:
- Unexport pcie_read_tlp_log() to encourage drivers to use PCI core
logging rather than building their own (Ilpo Järvinen)
- Move TLP Log handling to its own file (Ilpo Järvinen)
- Store number of supported End-End TLP Prefixes always so we can
read the correct number of DWORDs from the TLP Prefix Log (Ilpo
Järvinen)
- Read TLP Prefixes in addition to the Header Log in
pcie_read_tlp_log() (Ilpo Järvinen)
- Add pcie_print_tlp_log() to consolidate printing of TLP Header and
Prefix Log (Ilpo Järvinen)
- Quirk the Intel Raptor Lake-P PIO log size to accommodate vendor
BIOSes that don't configure it correctly (Takashi Iwai)
ASPM:
- Save parent L1 PM Substates config so when we restore it along with
an endpoint's config, the parent info isn't junk (Jian-Hong Pan)
Power management:
- Avoid D3 for Root Ports on TUXEDO Sirius Gen1 with old BIOS because
the system can't wake up from suspend (Werner Sembach)
Endpoint framework:
- Destroy the EPC device in devm_pci_epc_destroy(), which previously
didn't call devres_release() (Zijun Hu)
- Finish virtual EP removal in pci_epf_remove_vepf(), which
previously caused a subsequent pci_epf_add_vepf() to fail with
-EBUSY (Zijun Hu)
- Write BAR_MASK before iATU registers in pci_epc_set_bar() so we
don't depend on the BAR_MASK reset value being larger than the
requested BAR size (Niklas Cassel)
- Prevent changing BAR size/flags in pci_epc_set_bar() to prevent
reads from bypassing the iATU if we reduced the BAR size (Niklas
Cassel)
- Verify address alignment when programming iATU so we don't attempt
to write bits that are read-only because of the BAR size, which
could lead to directing accesses to the wrong address (Niklas
Cassel)
- Implement artpec6 pci_epc_features so we can rely on all drivers
supporting it so we can use it in EPC core code (Niklas Cassel)
- Check for BARs of fixed size to prevent endpoint drivers from
trying to change their size (Niklas Cassel)
- Verify that requested BAR size is a power of two when endpoint
driver sets the BAR (Niklas Cassel)
Endpoint framework tests:
- Clear pci-epf-test dma_chan_rx, not dma_chan_tx, after freeing
dma_chan_rx (Mohamed Khalfella)
- Correct the DMA MEMCPY test so it doesn't fail if the Endpoint
supports both DMA_PRIVATE and DMA_MEMCPY (Manivannan Sadhasivam)
- Add pci-epf-test and pci_endpoint_test support for capabilities
(Niklas Cassel)

tracing updates for v6.14:
- 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. - Update the Rust tracepoint code to use the C code too There was some duplication of the tracepoint code for Rust that did the same logic as the C code. Add a helper that makes it possible for both algorithms to use the same logic in one place. - Add poll to trace event hist files It is useful to know when an event is triggered, or even with some filtering. Since hist files of events get updated when active and the event is triggered, allow applications to poll the hist file and wake up when an event is triggered. This will let the application know that the event it is waiting for happened. - Add :mod: command to enable events for current or future modules 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. Add the command where if ':mod:<module>' is written into set_event, then either all the modules events are enabled if it is loaded, or cache it so that the module's events are enabled when it is loaded. This also works from the kernel command line, where "trace_event=:mod:<module>", when the module is loaded at boot up, its events will be enabled then. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iIoEABYIADIWIQRRSw7ePDh/lE+zeZMp5XQQmuv6qgUCZ5EbMxQccm9zdGVkdEBn b29kbWlzLm9yZwAKCRAp5XQQmuv6qkZsAP9Amgx9frSbR1pn1t0I3wVnQx7khgOu s/b8Ro+vjTx1/QD/RN2AA7f+HK4F27w3Aqfrs0nKXAPtXWsJ9Epp8raG5w8= =Pg+4 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'trace-v6.14-3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: - 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.

Documentation: Fix pci=config_acs= example
The documentation currently says:
config_acs=
Format:
<ACS flags>@<pci_dev>[; ...]
Specify one or more PCI devices (in the format
specified above) optionally prepended with flags
and separated by semicolons. The respective
capabilities will be enabled, disabled or
unchanged based on what is specified in
flags.
(...)
For example,
pci=config_acs=10x
would configure all devices that support
ACS to enable P2P Request Redirect, disable
Translation Blocking, and leave Source
Validation unchanged from whatever power-up
or firmware set it to.
See the complete documentation at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.html
However, a flag specification always needs to be suffixed with "@" and
a PCI valid device address, which is missing in this example. Also, to
configure all devices that support ACS, the flag needs to be suffixed
with "@pci:0:0", for the ACS support to be enabled.
Fix the documentation so the example is correct.

tracing: Cache ":mod:" events for modules not loaded yet
When the :mod: command is written into /sys/kernel/tracing/set_event (or that file within an instance), if the module specified after the ":mod:" is not yet loaded, it will store that string internally. When the module is loaded, it will enable the events as if the module was loaded when the string was written into the set_event file. This can also be useful to enable events that are in the init section of the module, as the events are enabled before the init section is executed. This also works on the kernel command line: trace_event=:mod:<module> Will enable the events for <module> when it is loaded.

mm: shmem: add a kernel command line to change the default huge policy for tmpfs
Now the tmpfs can allow to allocate any sized large folios, and the default huge policy is still preferred to be 'never'. Due to tmpfs not behaving like other file systems in some cases as previously explained by David[1]: : I think I raised this in the past, but tmpfs/shmem is just like any : other file system .. except it sometimes really isn't and behaves much : more like (swappable) anonymous memory. (or mlocked files) : : There are many systems out there that run without swap enabled, or with : extremely minimal swap (IIRC until recently kubernetes was completely : incompatible with swapping). Swap can even be disabled today for shmem : using a mount option. : : That's a big difference to all other file systems where you are : guaranteed to have backend storage where you can simply evict under : memory pressure (might temporarily fail, of course). : : I *think* that's the reason why we have the "huge=" parameter that also : controls the THP allocations during page faults (IOW possible memory : over-allocation). Maybe also because it was a new feature, and we only : had a single THP size. Thus adding a new command line to change the default huge policy will be helpful to use the large folios for tmpfs, which is similar to the 'transparent_hugepage_shmem' cmdline for shmem.

rcutorture: Add parameters to control polled/conditional wait interval
This commit adds rcutorture module parameters gp_cond_wi, gp_cond_wi_exp, gp_poll_wi, and gp_poll_wi_exp to control the wait interval for conditional, conditional expedited, polled, and polled expedited grace periods, respectively. When rcu_torture_writer() is testing these types of grace periods, hrtimers are used to randomly wait up to the specified number of microseconds, but with nanosecond granularity. In the case of conditional grace periods (get_state_synchronize_rcu() and cond_synchronize_rcu(), for example) there is just one wait. For polled grace periods (start_poll_synchronize_rcu() and poll_state_synchronize_rcu(), for example), there is a repeated series of waits until the grace period ends. For normal grace periods, the default is 16 jiffies (for example, 16,000 microseconds on a HZ=1000 system) and for expedited grace periods the default is 128 microseconds. Signed-off-by: Paul E.
