Many singleton patches - please see the various changelogs for details.
Quite a lot of nilfs2 work this time around.
Notable patch series in this pull request are:
"mul_u64_u64_div_u64: new implementation" by Nicolas Pitre, with
assistance from Uwe Kleine-König. Reimplement mul_u64_u64_div_u64() to
provide (much) more accurate results. The current implementation was
causing Uwe some issues in the PWM drivers.
"xz: Updates to license, filters, and compression options" from Lasse
Collin. Miscellaneous maintenance and kinor feature work to the xz
decompressor.
"Fix some GDB command error and add some GDB commands" from Kuan-Ying Lee.
Fixes and enhancements to the gdb scripts.
"treewide: add missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() macros" from Jeff Johnson.
Adds lots of MODULE_DESCRIPTIONs, thus fixing lots of warnings about this.
"nilfs2: add support for some common ioctls" from Ryusuke Konishi. Adds
various commonly-available ioctls to nilfs2.
"This series fixes a number of formatting issues in kernel doc comments"
from Ryusuke Konishi does that.
"nilfs2: prevent unexpected ENOENT propagation" from Ryusuke Konishi. Fix
issues where -ENOENT was being unintentionally and inappropriately
returned to userspace.
"nilfs2: assorted cleanups" from Huang Xiaojia.
"nilfs2: fix potential issues with empty b-tree nodes" from Ryusuke
Konishi fixes some issues which can occur on corrupted nilfs2 filesystems.
"scripts/decode_stacktrace.sh: improve error reporting and usability" from
Luca Ceresoli does those things.

ALong with the usual shower of singleton patches, notable patch series in
this pull request are:
"Align kvrealloc() with krealloc()" from Danilo Krummrich. Adds
consistency to the APIs and behaviour of these two core allocation
functions. This also simplifies/enables Rustification.
"Some cleanups for shmem" from Baolin Wang. No functional changes - mode
code reuse, better function naming, logic simplifications.
"mm: some small page fault cleanups" from Josef Bacik. No functional
changes - code cleanups only.
"Various memory tiering fixes" from Zi Yan. A small fix and a little
cleanup.
"mm/swap: remove boilerplate" from Yu Zhao. Code cleanups and
simplifications and .text shrinkage.
"Kernel stack usage histogram" from Pasha Tatashin and Shakeel Butt. This
is a feature, it adds new feilds to /proc/vmstat such as
$ grep kstack /proc/vmstat
kstack_1k 3
kstack_2k 188
kstack_4k 11391
kstack_8k 243
kstack_16k 0
which tells us that 11391 processes used 4k of stack while none at all
used 16k. Useful for some system tuning things, but partivularly useful
for "the dynamic kernel stack project".
"kmemleak: support for percpu memory leak detect" from Pavel Tikhomirov.
Teaches kmemleak to detect leaksage of percpu memory.
"mm: memcg: page counters optimizations" from Roman Gushchin. "3
independent small optimizations of page counters".
"mm: split PTE/PMD PT table Kconfig cleanups+clarifications" from David
Hildenbrand. Improves PTE/PMD splitlock detection, makes powerpc/8xx work
correctly by design rather than by accident.
"mm: remove arch_make_page_accessible()" from David Hildenbrand. Some
folio conversions which make arch_make_page_accessible() unneeded.
"mm, memcg: cg2 memory{.swap,}.peak write handlers" fro David Finkel.
Cleans up and fixes our handling of the resetting of the cgroup/process
peak-memory-use detector.
"Make core VMA operations internal and testable" from Lorenzo Stoakes.
Rationalizaion and encapsulation of the VMA manipulation APIs. With a
view to better enable testing of the VMA functions, even from a
userspace-only harness.
"mm: zswap: fixes for global shrinker" from Takero Funaki. Fix issues in
the zswap global shrinker, resulting in improved performance.
"mm: print the promo watermark in zoneinfo" from Kaiyang Zhao. Fill in
some missing info in /proc/zoneinfo.
"mm: replace follow_page() by folio_walk" from David Hildenbrand. Code
cleanups and rationalizations (conversion to folio_walk()) resulting in
the removal of follow_page().
"improving dynamic zswap shrinker protection scheme" from Nhat Pham. Some
tuning to improve zswap's dynamic shrinker. Significant reductions in
swapin and improvements in performance are shown.
"mm: Fix several issues with unaccepted memory" from Kirill Shutemov.
Improvements to the new unaccepted memory feature,
"mm/mprotect: Fix dax puds" from Peter Xu. Implements mprotect on DAX
PUDs. This was missing, although nobody seems to have notied yet.
"Introduce a store type enum for the Maple tree" from Sidhartha Kumar.
Cleanups and modest performance improvements for the maple tree library
code.
"memcg: further decouple v1 code from v2" from Shakeel Butt. Move more
cgroup v1 remnants away from the v2 memcg code.
"memcg: initiate deprecation of v1 features" from Shakeel Butt. Adds
various warnings telling users that memcg v1 features are deprecated.
"mm: swap: mTHP swap allocator base on swap cluster order" from Chris Li.
Greatly improves the success rate of the mTHP swap allocation.
"mm: introduce numa_memblks" from Mike Rapoport. Moves various disparate
per-arch implementations of numa_memblk code into generic code.
"mm: batch free swaps for zap_pte_range()" from Barry Song. Greatly
improves the performance of munmap() of swap-filled ptes.
"support large folio swap-out and swap-in for shmem" from Baolin Wang.
With this series we no longer split shmem large folios into simgle-page
folios when swapping out shmem.
"mm/hugetlb: alloc/free gigantic folios" from Yu Zhao. Nice performance
improvements and code reductions for gigantic folios.
"support shmem mTHP collapse" from Baolin Wang. Adds support for
khugepaged's collapsing of shmem mTHP folios.
"mm: Optimize mseal checks" from Pedro Falcato. Fixes an mprotect()
performance regression due to the addition of mseal().
"Increase the number of bits available in page_type" from Matthew Wilcox.
Increases the number of bits available in page_type!
"Simplify the page flags a little" from Matthew Wilcox. Many legacy page
flags are now folio flags, so the page-based flags and their
accessors/mutators can be removed.
"mm: store zero pages to be swapped out in a bitmap" from Usama Arif. An
optimization which permits us to avoid writing/reading zero-filled zswap
pages to backing store.
"Avoid MAP_FIXED gap exposure" from Liam Howlett. Fixes a race window
which occurs when a MAP_FIXED operqtion is occurring during an unrelated
vma tree walk.

printf: remove %pGt support
Patch series "Increase the number of bits available in page_type". Kent wants more than 16 bits in page_type, so I resurrected this old patch and expanded it a bit. It's a bit more efficient than our current scheme (1 4-byte insn vs 3 insns of 13 bytes total) to test a single page type. This patch (of 4): An upcoming patch will convert page type from being a bitfield to a single byte, so we will not be able to use %pG to print the page type any more. The printing of the symbolic name will be restored in that patch.

cleanup: Add usage and style documentation
When proposing that PCI grow some new cleanup helpers for pci_dev_put()
and pci_dev_{lock,unlock} [1], Bjorn had some fundamental questions
about expectations and best practices. Upon reviewing an updated
changelog with those details he recommended adding them to documentation
in the header file itself.
Add that documentation and link it into the rendering for

Union-Find: add a new module in kernel library
This patch implements a union-find data structure in the kernel library, which includes operations for allocating nodes, freeing nodes, finding the root of a node, and merging two nodes. Signed-off-by: Xavier <xavier_qy@163.com> Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> |

docs/core-api: memory-allocation: GFP_NOWAIT doesn't need __GFP_NOWARN
Since v6.8 the definition of GFP_NOWAIT has implied __GFP_NOWARN,
so it is now redundant to add this flag explicitly.
Update the docs to match, and emphasise the need for a fallback
when using GFP_NOWAIT.

Updates for the interrupt subsystem:
- Core:
- Provide a new mechanism to create interrupt domains. The existing
interfaces have already too many parameters and it's a pain to expand
any of this for new required functionality.
The new function takes a pointer to a data structure as argument. The
data structure combines all existing parameters and allows for easy
extension.
The first extension for this is to handle the instantiation of
generic interrupt chips at the core level and to allow drivers to
provide extra init/exit callbacks.
This is necessary to do the full interrupt chip initialization before
the new domain is published, so that concurrent usage sites won't see
a half initialized interrupt domain. Similar problems exist on
teardown.
This has turned out to be a real problem due to the deferred and
parallel probing which was added in recent years.
Handling this at the core level allows to remove quite some accrued
boilerplate code in existing drivers and avoids horrible workarounds
at the driver level.
- The usual small improvements all over the place
- Drivers
- Add support for LAN966x OIC and RZ/Five SoC
- Split the STM ExtI driver into a microcontroller and a SMP version to
allow building the latter as a module for multi-platform kernels.
- Enable MSI support for Armada 370XP on platforms which do not support
IPIs.
- The usual small fixes and enhancements all over the place.

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

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

There were several undocumented fields in structs irq_domain_ops and irq_domain_info. Document them. irq_domain_ops::revmap_size contained "[]" in the description, which is not allowed in sphinx. Remove that. Finally, plug the whole header (irqdomain.h) into genericirq.rst, so that the docs is autogenerated and hyperlinks to these structure are created.

arch: add ARCH_HAS_KERNEL_FPU_SUPPORT
Several architectures provide an API to enable the FPU and run floating-point SIMD code in kernel space. However, the function names, header locations, and semantics are inconsistent across architectures, and FPU support may be gated behind other Kconfig options. provide a standard way for architectures to declare that kernel space FPU support is available. Architectures selecting this option must implement what is currently the most common API (kernel_fpu_begin() and kernel_fpu_end(), plus a new function kernel_fpu_available()) and provide the appropriate CFLAGS for compiling floating-point C code.

docs: dma: correct dma_set_mask() sample code
There are bunch of codes in driver like
if (dma_set_mask_and_coherent(dev, DMA_BIT_MASK(64)))
dma_set_mask_and_coherent(dev, DMA_BIT_MASK(32))
Actually it is wrong because if dma_set_mask_and_coherent(64) fails,
dma_set_mask_and_coherent(32) will fail for the same reason.
And dma_set_mask_and_coherent(64) never returns failure.
According to the definition of dma_set_mask(), it indicates the width of
address that device DMA can access. If it can access 64-bit address, it
must access 32-bit address inherently. So only need set biggest address
width.
See below code fragment:
dma_set_mask(mask)
{
mask = (dma_addr_t)mask;
if (!dev->dma_mask || !dma_supported(dev, mask))
return -EIO;
arch_dma_set_mask(dev, mask);
*dev->dma_mask = mask;
return 0;
}
dma_supported() will call dma_direct_supported or iommux's dma_supported
call back function.
int dma_direct_supported(struct device *dev, u64 mask)
{
u64 min_mask = (max_pfn - 1) << PAGE_SHIFT;
/*
* Because 32-bit DMA masks are so common we expect every architecture
* to be able to satisfy them - either by not supporting more physical
* memory, or by providing a ZONE_DMA32. If neither is the case, the
* architecture needs to use an IOMMU instead of the direct mapping.
*/
if (mask >= DMA_BIT_MASK(32))
return 1;
...
}
The iommux's dma_supported() actually means iommu requires devices's
minimized dma capability.
An example:
static int sba_dma_supported( struct device *dev, u64 mask)()
{
...
* check if mask is >= than the current max IO Virt Address
* The max IO Virt address will *always* < 30 bits.
*/
return((int)(mask >= (ioc->ibase - 1 +
(ioc->pdir_size / sizeof(u64) * IOVP_SIZE) )));
...
}
1 means supported. 0 means unsupported.
Correct document to make it more clear and provide correct sample code.

workqueue: Implement BH workqueues to eventually replace tasklets
The only generic interface to execute asynchronously in the BH context is
tasklet; however, it's marked deprecated and has some design flaws such as
the execution code accessing the tasklet item after the execution is
complete which can lead to subtle use-after-free in certain usage scenarios
and less-developed flush and cancel mechanisms.
This patch implements BH workqueues which share the same semantics and
features of regular workqueues but execute their work items in the softirq
context. As there is always only one BH execution context per CPU, none of
the concurrency management mechanisms applies and a BH workqueue can be
thought of as a convenience wrapper around softirq.
Except for the inability to sleep while executing and lack of max_active
adjustments, BH workqueues and work items should behave the same as regular
workqueues and work items.
Currently, the execution is hooked to tasklet[_hi]. However, the goal is to
convert all tasklet users over to BH workqueues. Once the conversion is
complete, tasklet can be removed and BH workqueues can directly take over
the tasklet softirqs.
system_bh[_highpri]_wq are added. As queue-wide flushing doesn't exist in
tasklet, all existing tasklet users should be able to use the system BH
workqueues without creating their own workqueues.
v3: - Add missing interrupt.h include.
v2: - Instead of using tasklets, hook directly into its softirq action
functions - tasklet[_hi]_action(). This is slightly cheaper and closer
to the eventual code structure we want to arrive at. Suggested by Lai.
- Lai also pointed out several places which need NULL worker->task
handling or can use clarification. Updated.

Merge tag 'drm-next-2024-01-10' of git://anongit.freedesktop.org/drm/drm
Pull drm updates from Dave Airlie:
"This contains two major new drivers:
- imagination is a first driver for Imagination Technologies devices,
it only covers very specific devices, but there is hope to grow it
- xe is a reboot of the i915 GPU (shares display) side using a more
upstream focused development model, and trying to maximise code
sharing. It's not enabled for any hw by default, and will hopefully
get switched on for Intel's Lunarlake.
This also drops a bunch of the old UMS ioctls. It's been dead long
enough.
amdgpu has a bunch of new color management code that is being used in
the Steam Deck.

Another moderately busy cycle for documentation, including:
- The minimum Sphinx requirement has been raised to 2.4.4, following a
warning that was added in 6.2.
- Some reworking of the Documentation/process front page to, hopefully,
make it more useful.
- Various kernel-doc tweaks to, for example, make it deal properly with
__counted_by annotations.
- We have also restored a warning for documentation of nonexistent
structure members that disappeared a while back. That had the delightful
consequence of adding some 600 warnings to the docs build. A sustained
effort by Randy, Vegard, and myself has addressed almost all of those,
bringing the documentation back into sync with the code. The fixes are
going through the appropriate maintainer trees.
- Various improvements to the HTML rendered docs, including automatic links
to Git revisions and a nice new pulldown to make translations easy to
access.
- Speaking of translations, more of those for Spanish and Chinese.
...plus the usual stream of documentation updates and typo fixes.

Many singleton patches against the MM code. The patch series which
are included in this merge do the following:
- Peng Zhang has done some mapletree maintainance work in the
series
"maple_tree: add mt_free_one() and mt_attr() helpers"
"Some cleanups of maple tree"
- In the series "mm: use memmap_on_memory semantics for dax/kmem"
Vishal Verma has altered the interworking between memory-hotplug
and dax/kmem so that newly added 'device memory' can more easily
have its memmap placed within that newly added memory.
- Matthew Wilcox continues folio-related work (including a few
fixes) in the patch series
"Add folio_zero_tail() and folio_fill_tail()"
"Make folio_start_writeback return void"
"Fix fault handler's handling of poisoned tail pages"
"Convert aops->error_remove_page to ->error_remove_folio"
"Finish two folio conversions"
"More swap folio conversions"
- Kefeng Wang has also contributed folio-related work in the series
"mm: cleanup and use more folio in page fault"
- Jim Cromie has improved the kmemleak reporting output in the
series "tweak kmemleak report format".
- In the series "stackdepot: allow evicting stack traces" Andrey
Konovalov to permits clients (in this case KASAN) to cause
eviction of no longer needed stack traces.
- Charan Teja Kalla has fixed some accounting issues in the page
allocator's atomic reserve calculations in the series "mm:
page_alloc: fixes for high atomic reserve caluculations".
- Dmitry Rokosov has added to the samples/ dorectory some sample
code for a userspace memcg event listener application. See the
series "samples: introduce cgroup events listeners".
- Some mapletree maintanance work from Liam Howlett in the series
"maple_tree: iterator state changes".
- Nhat Pham has improved zswap's approach to writeback in the
series "workload-specific and memory pressure-driven zswap
writeback".
- DAMON/DAMOS feature and maintenance work from SeongJae Park in
the series
"mm/damon: let users feed and tame/auto-tune DAMOS"
"selftests/damon: add Python-written DAMON functionality tests"
"mm/damon: misc updates for 6.8"
- Yosry Ahmed has improved memcg's stats flushing in the series
"mm: memcg: subtree stats flushing and thresholds".
- In the series "Multi-size THP for anonymous memory" Ryan Roberts
has added a runtime opt-in feature to transparent hugepages which
improves performance by allocating larger chunks of memory during
anonymous page faults.
- Matthew Wilcox has also contributed some cleanup and maintenance
work against eh buffer_head code int he series "More buffer_head
cleanups".
- Suren Baghdasaryan has done work on Andrea Arcangeli's series
"userfaultfd move option". UFFDIO_MOVE permits userspace heap
compaction algorithms to move userspace's pages around rather than
UFFDIO_COPY'a alloc/copy/free.
- Stefan Roesch has developed a "KSM Advisor", in the series
"mm/ksm: Add ksm advisor". This is a governor which tunes KSM's
scanning aggressiveness in response to userspace's current needs.
- Chengming Zhou has optimized zswap's temporary working memory
use in the series "mm/zswap: dstmem reuse optimizations and
cleanups".
- Matthew Wilcox has performed some maintenance work on the

more pte batching, folio conversions and more. See the series
"mm/rmap: interface overhaul".
- Kinsey Ho has contributed some maintenance work on the MGLRU
code in the series "mm/mglru: Kconfig cleanup".
- Matthew Wilcox has contributed lruvec page accounting code
cleanups in the series "Remove some lruvec page accounting
functions".

mm/slab, docs: switch mm-api docs generation from slab.c to slub.c
The SLAB implementation is going to be removed, and mm-api.rst currently uses mm/slab.c to obtain kerneldocs for some API functions. Switch it to mm/slub.c and move the relevant kerneldocs of exported functions from one to the other. The rest of kerneldocs in slab.c is for static SLAB implementation-specific functions that don't have counterparts in slub.c and thus can be simply removed with the implementation.

The document describes and discuss the locking used during exec- functions, evicton and for userptr gpu-vmas. Intention is to be using the same nomenclature as the drm-vm-bind-async.rst. v2: - s/gvm/gpu_vm/g (Rodrigo Vivi) - Clarify the userptr seqlock with a pointer to mm/mmu_notifier.c (Rodrigo Vivi) - Adjust commit message accordingly. - Add SPDX license header. v3: - Large update to align with the drm_gpuvm manager locking - Add "Efficient userptr gpu_vma exec function iteration" section - Add "Locking at bind- and unbind time" section. v4: - Fix tabs vs space errors by untabifying (Rodrigo Vivi) - Minor style fixes and typos (Rodrigo Vivi) - Clarify situations where stale GPU mappings are occurring and how access through these mappings are blocked. (Rodrigo Vivi) - Insert into the toctree in implementation_guidelines.rst v5: - Add a section about recoverable page-faults. - Use local references to other documentation where possible (Bagas Sanjaya) - General documentation fixes and typos (Danilo Krummrich and Boris Brezillon) - Improve the documentation around locks that need to be grabbed from the dm-fence critical section (Boris Brezillon) - Add more references to the DRM GPUVM helpers (Danilo Krummrich and Boriz Brezillon) - Update the rfc/xe.rst document. v6: - Rework wording to improve readability (Boris Brezillon, Rodrigo Vivi, Bagas Sanjaya) - Various minor fixes across the document (Boris Brezillon) Cc: Rodrigo Vivi <rodrigo.vivi@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Thomas Hellström <thomas.hellstrom@linux.intel.com> Reviewed-by: Boris Brezillon <boris.brezillon@collabora.com> Reviewed-by: Rodrigo Vivi <rodrigo.vivi@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Danilo Krummrich <dakr@redhat.com> Acked-by: John Hubbard <jhubbard@nvidia.com> # Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst changes Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20231129090637.2629-1-thomas.hellstrom@linux.intel.com |

Many singleton patches against the MM code. The patch series which are
included in this merge do the following:
- Kemeng Shi has contributed some compation maintenance work in the
series "Fixes and cleanups to compaction".
- Joel Fernandes has a patchset ("Optimize mremap during mutual
alignment within PMD") which fixes an obscure issue with mremap()'s
pagetable handling during a subsequent exec(), based upon an
implementation which Linus suggested.
- More DAMON/DAMOS maintenance and feature work from SeongJae Park i the
following patch series:
mm/damon: misc fixups for documents, comments and its tracepoint
mm/damon: add a tracepoint for damos apply target regions
mm/damon: provide pseudo-moving sum based access rate
mm/damon: implement DAMOS apply intervals
mm/damon/core-test: Fix memory leaks in core-test
mm/damon/sysfs-schemes: Do DAMOS tried regions update for only one apply interval
- In the series "Do not try to access unaccepted memory" Adrian Hunter
provides some fixups for the recently-added "unaccepted memory' feature.
To increase the feature's checking coverage. "Plug a few gaps where
RAM is exposed without checking if it is unaccepted memory".
- In the series "cleanups for lockless slab shrink" Qi Zheng has done
some maintenance work which is preparation for the lockless slab
shrinking code.
- Qi Zheng has redone the earlier (and reverted) attempt to make slab
shrinking lockless in the series "use refcount+RCU method to implement
lockless slab shrink".

in the series "Anon rmap cleanups".
- Kefeng Wang does more folio conversions and some maintenance work in
the migration code. Series "mm: migrate: more folio conversion and

arch: Remove Itanium (IA-64) architecture
The Itanium architecture is obsolete, and an informal survey [0] reveals that any residual use of Itanium hardware in production is mostly HP-UX or OpenVMS based. The use of Linux on Itanium appears to be limited to enthusiasts that occasionally boot a fresh Linux kernel to see whether things are still working as intended, and perhaps to churn out some distro packages that are rarely used in practice. None of the original companies behind Itanium still produce or support any hardware or software for the architecture, and it is listed as 'Orphaned' in the MAINTAINERS file, as apparently, none of the engineers that contributed on behalf of those companies (nor anyone else, for that matter) have been willing to support or maintain the architecture upstream or even be responsible for applying the odd fix. The Intel firmware team removed all IA-64 support from the Tianocore/EDK2 reference implementation of EFI in 2018. (Itanium is the original architecture for which EFI was developed, and the way Linux supports it deviates significantly from other architectures.) Some distros, such as Debian and Gentoo, still maintain [unofficial] ia64 ports, but many have dropped support years ago. While the argument is being made [1] that there is a 'for the common good' angle to being able to build and run existing projects such as the Grid Community Toolkit [2] on Itanium for interoperability testing, the fact remains that none of those projects are known to be deployed on Linux/ia64, and very few people actually have access to such a system in the first place. Even if there were ways imaginable in which Linux/ia64 could be put to good use today, what matters is whether anyone is actually doing that, and this does not appear to be the case. There are no emulators widely available, and so boot testing Itanium is generally infeasible for ordinary contributors. GCC still supports IA-64 but its compile farm [3] no longer has any IA-64 machines. GLIBC would like to get rid of IA-64 [4] too because it would permit some overdue code cleanups. In summary, the benefits to the ecosystem of having IA-64 be part of it are mostly theoretical, whereas the maintenance overhead of keeping it supported is real. So let's rip off the band aid, and remove the IA-64 arch code entirely. This follows the timeline proposed by the Debian/ia64 maintainer [5], which removes support in a controlled manner, leaving IA-64 in a known good state in the most recent LTS release. Other projects will follow once the kernel support is removed.

workqueue: Changes for v6.6
* Unbound workqueues now support more flexible affinity scopes. The default behavior is to soft-affine according to last level cache boundaries. A work item queued from a given LLC is executed by a worker running on the same LLC but the worker may be moved across cache boundaries as the scheduler sees fit. On machines which multiple L3 caches, which are becoming more popular along with chiplet designs, this improves cache locality while not harming work conservation too much. Unbound workqueues are now also a lot more flexible in terms of execution affinity. Differeing levels of affinity scopes are supported and both the default and per-workqueue affinity settings can be modified dynamically. This should help working around amny of sub-optimal behaviors observed recently with asymmetric ARM CPUs. This involved signficant restructuring of workqueue code. Nothing was reported yet but there's some risk of subtle regressions. Should keep an eye out. * Rescuer workers now has more identifiable comms. * workqueue.unbound_cpus added so that CPUs which can be used by workqueue can be constrained early during boot. * Now that all the in-tree users have been flushed out, trigger warning if system-wide workqueues are flushed. * One pull commit from for-6.5-fixes to avoid cascading conflicts in the affinity scope patchset. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iIQEABYIACwWIQTfIjM1kS57o3GsC/uxYfJx3gVYGQUCZPERlQ4cdGpAa2VybmVs Lm9yZwAKCRCxYfJx3gVYGVqQAPwIOy9tWY5jFAmMuIyH6wV50hbmfxCc2n5xhQNr 5HoyGgEA8lw1W7afDCIPiQVA7AYsu8dhwuNSOcRCJxhrrn4XsA0= =g/Uu -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'wq-for-6.6' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq Pull workqueue updates from Tejun Heo: - Unbound workqueues now support more flexible affinity scopes.

Documentation work keeps chugging along; stuff for 6.6 includes:
- Work from Carlos Bilbao to integrate rustdoc output into the generated
HTML documentation. This took some work to figure out how to do it
without slowing the docs build and without creating people who don't have
Rust installed, but Carlos got there.
- Move the loongarch and mips architecture documentation under
Documentation/arch/.
- Some more maintainer documentation from Jakub
...plus the usual assortment of updates, translations, and fixes.

sound updates for 6.6-rc1
We've received a fairly wide range of changes at this time, including
for ALSA and ASoC core, but all of them are rather small changes.
Here are some highlights:
ALSA / ASoC Core:
- Fixes of inconsistent locking around control API helpers
- A few new control API functions and cleanups
- Workarounds for potential UAFs by delayed kobj releases
- Unified PCM copy ops with iov_iter
- Continued efforts for ASoC API cleanups
ASoC:
- An adaptor to allow use of IIO DACs and ADCs in ASoC which pulls in
some IIO changes
- Create a library function for intlog10() and use it in the NAU8825
driver
- Convert drivers to use the more modern maple tree register cache
- Lots of work on the SOF framework, AMD and Intel drivers, including a
lot of cleanup and new device support
- Standardization of the presentation of jacks from drivers
- Provision of some generic sound card DT properties
- Support for AMD Van Gogh, AMD machines with MAX98388 and NAU8821,
AWInic AW88261, Cirrus Logic CS35L36 and CS42L43, various Intel
platforms including AVS machines with ES8336 and RT5663, Mediatek
MT7986, NXP i.MX93, RealTek RT1017 and StarFive JH7110
Others:
- New test coverage including ASoC and topology tests in KUnit;
this also involves enabling UML builds of ALSA since that's the
default KUnit test environment which pulls in the addition of some
stubs to the driver
- More enhancement of pcmtest driver
- A few fixes / enhancements of MIDI 2.0 UMP core
- Using PCI definitions in allover HD-audio code
- Support for Cirrus CS35L56 and TI TAS2781 HD-audio sub-codecs
- CS35L41 HD-audio sub-codec improvements
- Continued emu10k1 improvements

Networking changes for 6.6.
Core
----
- Increase size limits for to-be-sent skb frag allocations. This
allows tun, tap devices and packet sockets to better cope with large
writes operations.
- Store netdevs in an xarray, to simplify iterating over netdevs.
- Refactor nexthop selection for multipath routes.
- Improve sched class lifetime handling.
- Add backup nexthop ID support for bridge.
- Implement drop reasons support in openvswitch.
- Several data races annotations and fixes.
- Constify the sk parameter of routing functions.
- Prepend kernel version to netconsole message.
Protocols
---------
- Implement support for TCP probing the peer being under memory
pressure.
- Remove hard coded limitation on IPv6 specific info placement
inside the socket struct.
- Get rid of sysctl_tcp_adv_win_scale and use an auto-estimated
per socket scaling factor.
- Scaling-up the IPv6 expired route GC via a separated list of
expiring routes.
- In-kernel support for the TLS alert protocol.
- Better support for UDP reuseport with connected sockets.
- Add NEXT-C-SID support for SRv6 End.X behavior, reducing the SR
header size.
- Get rid of additional ancillary per MPTCP connection struct socket.
- Implement support for BPF-based MPTCP packet schedulers.
- Format MPTCP subtests selftests results in TAP.
- Several new SMC 2.1 features including unique experimental options,
max connections per lgr negotiation, max links per lgr negotiation.
BPF
---
- Multi-buffer support in AF_XDP.
- Add multi uprobe BPF links for attaching multiple uprobes
and usdt probes, which is significantly faster and saves extra fds.
- Implement an fd-based tc BPF attach API (TCX) and BPF link support on
top of it.
- Add SO_REUSEPORT support for TC bpf_sk_assign.
- Support new instructions from cpu v4 to simplify the generated code and
feature completeness, for x86, arm64, riscv64.
- Support defragmenting IPv(4|6) packets in BPF.
- Teach verifier actual bounds of bpf_get_smp_processor_id()
and fix perf+libbpf issue related to custom section handling.
- Introduce bpf map element count and enable it for all program types.
- Add a BPF hook in sys_socket() to change the protocol ID
from IPPROTO_TCP to IPPROTO_MPTCP to cover migration for legacy.
- Introduce bpf_me_mcache_free_rcu() and fix OOM under stress.
- Add uprobe support for the bpf_get_func_ip helper.
- Check skb ownership against full socket.
- Support for up to 12 arguments in BPF trampoline.
- Extend link_info for kprobe_multi and perf_event links.
Netfilter
---------
- Speed-up process exit by aborting ruleset validation if a
fatal signal is pending.
- Allow NLA_POLICY_MASK to be used with BE16/BE32 types.
Driver API
----------
- Page pool optimizations, to improve data locality and cache usage.
- Introduce ndo_hwtstamp_get() and ndo_hwtstamp_set() to avoid the need
for raw ioctl() handling in drivers.
- Simplify genetlink dump operations (doit/dumpit) providing them
the common information already populated in struct genl_info.
- Extend and use the yaml devlink specs to [re]generate the split ops.
- Introduce devlink selective dumps, to allow SF filtering SF based on
handle and other attributes.
- Add yaml netlink spec for netlink-raw families, allow route, link and
address related queries via the ynl tool.

crash: memory and CPU hotplug sysfs attributes
Introduce the crash_hotplug attribute for memory and CPUs for use by
userspace. These attributes directly facilitate the udev rule for
managing userspace re-loading of the crash kernel upon hot un/plug
changes.
For memory, expose the crash_hotplug attribute to the
/sys/devices/system/memory directory. For example:
# udevadm info --attribute-walk /sys/devices/system/memory/memory81
looking at device '/devices/system/memory/memory81':
KERNEL=="memory81"
SUBSYSTEM=="memory"
DRIVER==""
ATTR{online}=="1"
ATTR{phys_device}=="0"
ATTR{phys_index}=="00000051"
ATTR{removable}=="1"
ATTR{state}=="online"
ATTR{valid_zones}=="Movable"
looking at parent device '/devices/system/memory':
KERNELS=="memory"
SUBSYSTEMS==""
DRIVERS==""
ATTRS{auto_online_blocks}=="offline"
ATTRS{block_size_bytes}=="8000000"
ATTRS{crash_hotplug}=="1"
For CPUs, expose the crash_hotplug attribute to the
/sys/devices/system/cpu directory. For example:
# udevadm info --attribute-walk /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0
looking at device '/devices/system/cpu/cpu0':
KERNEL=="cpu0"
SUBSYSTEM=="cpu"
DRIVER=="processor"
ATTR{crash_notes}=="277c38600"
ATTR{crash_notes_size}=="368"
ATTR{online}=="1"
looking at parent device '/devices/system/cpu':
KERNELS=="cpu"
SUBSYSTEMS==""
DRIVERS==""
ATTRS{crash_hotplug}=="1"
ATTRS{isolated}==""
ATTRS{kernel_max}=="8191"
ATTRS{nohz_full}==" (null)"
ATTRS{offline}=="4-7"
ATTRS{online}=="0-3"
ATTRS{possible}=="0-7"
ATTRS{present}=="0-3"
With these sysfs attributes in place, it is possible to efficiently
instruct the udev rule to skip crash kernel reloading for kernels
configured with crash hotplug support.
For example, the following is the proposed udev rule change for RHEL
system 98-kexec.rules (as the first lines of the rule file):
# The kernel updates the crash elfcorehdr for CPU and memory changes
SUBSYSTEM=="cpu", ATTRS{crash_hotplug}=="1", GOTO="kdump_reload_end"
SUBSYSTEM=="memory", ATTRS{crash_hotplug}=="1", GOTO="kdump_reload_end"
When examined in the context of 98-kexec.rules, the above rules test if
crash_hotplug is set, and if so, the userspace initiated
unload-then-reload of the crash kernel is skipped.
CPU and memory checks are separated in accordance with CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU
and CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG kernel config options. If an architecture
supports, for example, memory hotplug but not CPU hotplug, then the
/sys/devices/system/memory/crash_hotplug attribute file is present, but
the /sys/devices/system/cpu/crash_hotplug attribute file will NOT be
present. Thus the udev rule skips userspace processing of memory hot
un/plug events, but the udev rule will evaluate false for CPU events, thus
allowing userspace to process CPU hot un/plug events (ie the
unload-then-reload of the kdump capture kernel).

mm: add orphaned kernel-doc to the rst files.
There are many files in mm/ that contain kernel-doc which is not currently published on kernel.org. Some of it is easily categorisable, but most of it is going into the miscellaneous documentation section to be organised later. Some files aren't ready to be included; they contain documentation with build errors. Or they're nommu.c which duplicates documentation from "real" MMU systems. Those files are noted with a # mark (although really anything which isn't a recognised directive would do to prevent inclusion) Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20230818200630.2719595-5-willy@infradead.org Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) <willy@infradead.org> Acked-by: Mike Rapoport (IBM) <rppt@kernel.org> Cc: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> |

workqueue: Make default affinity_scope dynamically updatable
While workqueue.default_affinity_scope is writable, it only affects workqueues which are created afterwards and isn't very useful. Instead, let's introduce explicit "default" scope and update the effective scope dynamically when workqueue.default_affinity_scope is changed. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> |

workqueue: Add "Affinity Scopes and Performance" section to documentation
With affinity scopes and their strictness setting added, unbound workqueues should now be able to cover wide variety of configurations and use cases. Unfortunately, the performance picture is not entirely straight-forward due to a trade-off between efficiency and work-conservation in some situations necessitating manual configuration. This patch adds "Affinity Scopes and Performance" section to Documentation/core-api/workqueue.rst which illustrates the trade-off with a set of experiments and provides some guidelines.

workqueue: Implement non-strict affinity scope for unbound workqueues
An unbound workqueue can be served by multiple worker_pools to improve locality. The segmentation is achieved by grouping CPUs into pods. By default, the cache boundaries according to cpus_share_cache() define the CPUs are grouped. Let's a workqueue is allowed to run on all CPUs and the system has two L3 caches. The workqueue would be mapped to two worker_pools each serving one L3 cache domains. While this improves locality, because the pod boundaries are strict, it limits the total bandwidth a given issuer can consume. For example, let's say there is a thread pinned to a CPU issuing enough work items to saturate the whole machine. With the machine segmented into two pods, no matter how many work items it issues, it can only use half of the CPUs on the system. While this limitation has existed for a very long time, it wasn't very pronounced because the affinity grouping used to be always by NUMA nodes. With cache boundaries as the default and support for even finer grained scopes (smt and cpu), it is now an a lot more pressing problem. This patch implements non-strict affinity scope where the pod boundaries aren't enforced strictly. Going back to the previous example, the workqueue would still be mapped to two worker_pools; however, the affinity enforcement would be soft. The workers in both pools would have their cpus_allowed set to the whole machine thus allowing the scheduler to migrate them anywhere on the machine. However, whenever an idle worker is woken up, the workqueue code asks the scheduler to bring back the task within the pod if the worker is outside. ie. work items start executing within its affinity scope but can be migrated outside as the scheduler sees fit. This removes the hard cap on utilization while maintaining the benefits of affinity scopes. After the earlier ->__pod_cpumask changes, the implementation is pretty simple. When non-strict which is the new default: * pool_allowed_cpus() returns @pool->attrs->cpumask instead of ->__pod_cpumask so that the workers are allowed to run on any CPU that the associated workqueues allow. * If the idle worker task's ->wake_cpu is outside the pod, kick_pool() sets the field to a CPU within the pod. This would be the first use of task_struct->wake_cpu outside scheduler proper, so it isn't clear whether this would be acceptable. However, other methods of migrating tasks are significantly more expensive and are likely prohibitively so if we want to do this on every work item. This needs discussion with scheduler folks. There is also a race window where setting ->wake_cpu wouldn't be effective as the target task is still on CPU. However, the window is pretty small and this being a best-effort optimization, it doesn't seem to warrant more complexity at the moment. While the non-strict cache affinity scopes seem to be the best option, the performance picture interacts with the affinity scope and is a bit complicated to fully discuss in this patch, so the behavior is made easily selectable through wqattrs and sysfs and the next patch will add documentation to discuss performance implications. v2: pool->attrs->affn_strict is set to true for per-cpu worker_pools.

workqueue: Add multiple affinity scopes and interface to select them
Add three more affinity scopes - WQ_AFFN_CPU, SMT and CACHE - and make CACHE the default. The code changes to actually add the additional scopes are trivial. Also add module parameter "workqueue.default_affinity_scope" to override the default scope and "affinity_scope" sysfs file to configure it per workqueue. wq_dump.py and documentations are updated accordingly. This enables significant flexibility in configuring how unbound workqueues behave. If affinity scope is set to "cpu", it'll behave close to a per-cpu workqueue. On the other hand, "system" removes all locality boundaries. Many modern machines have multiple L3 caches often while being mostly uniform in terms of memory access. Thus, workqueue's previous behavior of spreading work items in each NUMA node had negative performance implications from unncessarily crossing L3 boundaries between issue and execution. However, picking a finer grained affinity scope also has a downside in that an issuer in one group can't utilize CPUs in other groups. While dependent on the specifics of workload, there's usually a noticeable penalty in crossing L3 boundaries, so let's default to CACHE. This issue will be further addressed and documented with examples in future patches. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> |

workqueue: Add tools/workqueue/wq_dump.py which prints out workqueue configuration
Lack of visibility has always been a pain point for workqueues. While the recently added wq_monitor.py improved the situation, it's still difficult to understand what worker pools are active in the system, how workqueues map to them and why. The lack of visibility into how workqueues are configured is going to become more noticeable as workqueue improves locality awareness and provides more mechanisms to customize locality related behaviors. Now that the basic framework for more flexible locality support is in place, this is a good time to improve the situation. This patch adds tools/workqueues/wq_dump.py which prints out the topology configuration, worker pools and how workqueues are mapped to pools. Read the command's help message for more details.

workqueue: Make unbound workqueues to use per-cpu pool_workqueues
A pwq (pool_workqueue) represents an association between a workqueue and a worker_pool. When a work item is queued, the workqueue selects the pwq to use, which in turn determines the pool, and queues the work item to the pool through the pwq. pwq is also what implements the maximum concurrency limit - @max_active. As a per-cpu workqueue should be assocaited with a different worker_pool on each CPU, it always had per-cpu pwq's that are accessed through wq->cpu_pwq. However, unbound workqueues were sharing a pwq within each NUMA node by default. The sharing has several downsides: * Because @max_active is per-pwq, the meaning of @max_active changes depending on the machine configuration and whether workqueue NUMA locality support is enabled. * Makes per-cpu and unbound code deviate. * Gets in the way of making workqueue CPU locality awareness more flexible. This patch makes unbound workqueues use per-cpu pwq's the same way per-cpu workqueues do by making the following changes: * wq->numa_pwq_tbl[] is removed and unbound workqueues now use wq->cpu_pwq just like per-cpu workqueues. wq->cpu_pwq is now RCU protected for unbound workqueues. * numa_pwq_tbl_install() is renamed to install_unbound_pwq() and installs the specified pwq to the target CPU's wq->cpu_pwq. * apply_wqattrs_prepare() now always allocates a separate pwq for each CPU unless the workqueue is ordered. If ordered, all CPUs use wq->dfl_pwq. This makes the return value of wq_calc_node_cpumask() unnecessary. It now returns void. * @max_active now means the same thing for both per-cpu and unbound workqueues. WQ_UNBOUND_MAX_ACTIVE now equals WQ_MAX_ACTIVE and documentation is updated accordingly. WQ_UNBOUND_MAX_ACTIVE is no longer used in workqueue implementation and will be removed later. * All unbound pwq operations which used to be per-numa-node are now per-cpu. For most unbound workqueue users, this shouldn't cause noticeable changes. Work item issue and completion will be a small bit faster, flush_workqueue() would become a bit more expensive, and the total concurrency limit would likely become higher. All @max_active==1 use cases are currently being audited for conversion into alloc_ordered_workqueue() and they shouldn't be affected once the audit and conversion is complete. One area where the behavior change may be more noticeable is workqueue_congested() as the reported congestion state is now per CPU instead of NUMA node. There are only two users of this interface - drivers/infiniband/hw/hfi1 and net/smc. Maintainers of both subsystems are cc'd. Inputs on the behavior change would be very much appreciated.

of a 6-parameter horror that forced u128 - u64/u64-halves layout
details on the interface and exposed users to complexity,

- Restructure the generated atomic headers, and add

and come with documentation.
- Implement lock_set_cmp_fn() on lockdep, for defining an ordering

A large update for SMP management:
- Parallel CPU bringup
The reason why people are interested in parallel bringup is to shorten
the (kexec) reboot time of cloud servers to reduce the downtime of the
VM tenants.
The current fully serialized bringup does the following per AP:
1) Prepare callbacks (allocate, intialize, create threads)
2) Kick the AP alive (e.g. INIT/SIPI on x86)
3) Wait for the AP to report alive state
4) Let the AP continue through the atomic bringup
5) Let the AP run the threaded bringup to full online state
There are two significant delays:
#3 The time for an AP to report alive state in start_secondary() on
x86 has been measured in the range between 350us and 3.5ms
depending on vendor and CPU type, BIOS microcode size etc.
#4 The atomic bringup does the microcode update. This has been
measured to take up to ~8ms on the primary threads depending on
the microcode patch size to apply.
On a two socket SKL server with 56 cores (112 threads) the boot CPU
spends on current mainline about 800ms busy waiting for the APs to come
up and apply microcode. That's more than 80% of the actual onlining
procedure.
This can be reduced significantly by splitting the bringup mechanism
into two parts:
1) Run the prepare callbacks and kick the AP alive for each AP which
needs to be brought up.
The APs wake up, do their firmware initialization and run the low
level kernel startup code including microcode loading in parallel
up to the first synchronization point. (#1 and #2 above)
2) Run the rest of the bringup code strictly serialized per CPU
(#3 - #5 above) as it's done today.
Parallelizing that stage of the CPU bringup might be possible in
theory, but it's questionable whether required surgery would be
justified for a pretty small gain.
If the system is large enough the first AP is already waiting at the
first synchronization point when the boot CPU finished the wake-up of
the last AP. That reduces the AP bringup time on that SKL from ~800ms
to ~80ms, i.e. by a factor ~10x.
The actual gain varies wildly depending on the system, CPU, microcode
patch size and other factors. There are some opportunities to reduce
the overhead further, but that needs some deep surgery in the x86 CPU
bringup code.
For now this is only enabled on x86, but the core functionality
obviously works for all SMP capable architectures.
- Enhancements for SMP function call tracing so it is possible to locate
the scheduling and the actual execution points. That allows to measure
IPI delivery time precisely.

Pull SMP updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"A large update for SMP management:
- Parallel CPU bringup
The reason why people are interested in parallel bringup is to
shorten the (kexec) reboot time of cloud servers to reduce the
downtime of the VM tenants.
The current fully serialized bringup does the following per AP:
1) Prepare callbacks (allocate, intialize, create threads)
2) Kick the AP alive (e.g. INIT/SIPI on x86)
3) Wait for the AP to report alive state
4) Let the AP continue through the atomic bringup
5) Let the AP run the threaded bringup to full online state
There are two significant delays:
#3 The time for an AP to report alive state in start_secondary()
on x86 has been measured in the range between 350us and 3.5ms
depending on vendor and CPU type, BIOS microcode size etc.
#4 The atomic bringup does the microcode update. This has been
measured to take up to ~8ms on the primary threads depending
on the microcode patch size to apply.
On a two socket SKL server with 56 cores (112 threads) the boot CPU
spends on current mainline about 800ms busy waiting for the APs to
come up and apply microcode. That's more than 80% of the actual
onlining procedure.
This can be reduced significantly by splitting the bringup
mechanism into two parts:
1) Run the prepare callbacks and kick the AP alive for each AP
which needs to be brought up.
The APs wake up, do their firmware initialization and run the
low level kernel startup code including microcode loading in
parallel up to the first synchronization point. (#1 and #2
above)
2) Run the rest of the bringup code strictly serialized per CPU
(#3 - #5 above) as it's done today.
Parallelizing that stage of the CPU bringup might be possible
in theory, but it's questionable whether required surgery
would be justified for a pretty small gain.
If the system is large enough the first AP is already waiting at
the first synchronization point when the boot CPU finished the
wake-up of the last AP. That reduces the AP bringup time on that
SKL from ~800ms to ~80ms, i.e. by a factor ~10x.
The actual gain varies wildly depending on the system, CPU,
microcode patch size and other factors. There are some
opportunities to reduce the overhead further, but that needs some
deep surgery in the x86 CPU bringup code.
For now this is only enabled on x86, but the core functionality
obviously works for all SMP capable architectures.
- Enhancements for SMP function call tracing so it is possible to
locate the scheduling and the actual execution points. That allows
to measure IPI delivery time precisely"

mm: Don't pin ZERO_PAGE in pin_user_pages()
Make pin_user_pages*() leave a ZERO_PAGE unpinned if it extracts a pointer to it from the page tables and make unpin_user_page*() correspondingly ignore a ZERO_PAGE when unpinning. We don't want to risk overrunning a zero page's refcount as we're only allowed ~2 million pins on it - something that userspace can conceivably trigger.

workqueue: Track and monitor per-workqueue CPU time usage
Now that wq_worker_tick() is there, we can easily track the rough CPU time
consumption of each workqueue by charging the whole tick whenever a tick
hits an active workqueue. While not super accurate, it provides reasonable
visibility into the workqueues that consume a lot of CPU cycles.
wq_monitor.py is updated to report the per-workqueue CPU times.
v2: wq_monitor.py was using "cputime" as the key when outputting in json
format. Use "cpu_time" instead for consistency with other fields.

workqueue: Automatically mark CPU-hogging work items CPU_INTENSIVE
If a per-cpu work item hogs the CPU, it can prevent other work items from
starting through concurrency management. A per-cpu workqueue which intends
to host such CPU-hogging work items can choose to not participate in
concurrency management by setting %WQ_CPU_INTENSIVE; however, this can be
error-prone and difficult to debug when missed.
This patch adds an automatic CPU usage based detection. If a
concurrency-managed work item consumes more CPU time than the threshold
(10ms by default) continuously without intervening sleeps, wq_worker_tick()
which is called from scheduler_tick() will detect the condition and
automatically mark it CPU_INTENSIVE.
The mechanism isn't foolproof:
* Detection depends on tick hitting the work item. Getting preempted at the
right timings may allow a violating work item to evade detection at least
temporarily.
* nohz_full CPUs may not be running ticks and thus can fail detection.
* Even when detection is working, the 10ms detection delays can add up if
many CPU-hogging work items are queued at the same time.
However, in vast majority of cases, this should be able to detect violations
reliably and provide reasonable protection with a small increase in code
complexity.
If some work items trigger this condition repeatedly, the bigger problem
likely is the CPU being saturated with such per-cpu work items and the
solution would be making them UNBOUND. The next patch will add a debug
mechanism to help spot such cases.
v4: Documentation for workqueue.cpu_intensive_thresh_us added to
kernel-parameters.txt.
v3: Switch to use wq_worker_tick() instead of hooking into preemptions as
suggested by Peter.
v2: Lai pointed out that wq_worker_stopping() also needs to be called from
preemption and rtlock paths and an earlier patch was updated
accordingly. This patch adds a comment describing the risk of infinte
recursions and how they're avoided.

workqueue: Add pwq->stats[] and a monitoring script
Currently, the only way to peer into workqueue operations is through
tracing. While possible, it isn't easy or convenient to monitor
per-workqueue behaviors over time this way. Let's add pwq->stats[] that
track relevant events and a drgn monitoring script -
tools/workqueue/wq_monitor.py.
It's arguable whether this needs to be configurable. However, it currently
only has several counters and the runtime overhead shouldn't be noticeable
given that they're on pwq's which are per-cpu on per-cpu workqueues and
per-numa-node on unbound ones. Let's keep it simple for the time being.
v2: Patch reordered to earlier with fewer fields. Field will be added back
gradually. Help message improved.

modules-6.4-rc1
The summary of the changes for this pull requests is:
* Song Liu's new struct module_memory replacement
* Nick Alcock's MODULE_LICENSE() removal for non-modules
* My cleanups and enhancements to reduce the areas where we vmalloc
module memory for duplicates, and the respective debug code which
proves the remaining vmalloc pressure comes from userspace.
Most of the changes have been in linux-next for quite some time except
the minor fixes I made to check if a module was already loaded
prior to allocating the final module memory with vmalloc and the
respective debug code it introduces to help clarify the issue. Although
the functional change is small it is rather safe as it can only *help*
reduce vmalloc space for duplicates and is confirmed to fix a bootup
issue with over 400 CPUs with KASAN enabled. I don't expect stable
kernels to pick up that fix as the cleanups would have also had to have
been picked up. Folks on larger CPU systems with modules will want to
just upgrade if vmalloc space has been an issue on bootup.
Given the size of this request, here's some more elaborate details
on this pull request.
The functional change change in this pull request is the very first
patch from Song Liu which replaces the struct module_layout with a new
struct module memory. The old data structure tried to put together all
types of supported module memory types in one data structure, the new
one abstracts the differences in memory types in a module to allow each
one to provide their own set of details. This paves the way in the
future so we can deal with them in a cleaner way. If you look at changes
they also provide a nice cleanup of how we handle these different memory
areas in a module. This change has been in linux-next since before the
merge window opened for v6.3 so to provide more than a full kernel cycle
of testing. It's a good thing as quite a bit of fixes have been found
for it.
Jason Baron then made dynamic debug a first class citizen module user by
using module notifier callbacks to allocate / remove module specific
dynamic debug information.
Nick Alcock has done quite a bit of work cross-tree to remove module
license tags from things which cannot possibly be module at my request
so to:
a) help him with his longer term tooling goals which require a
deterministic evaluation if a piece a symbol code could ever be
part of a module or not. But quite recently it is has been made
clear that tooling is not the only one that would benefit.
Disambiguating symbols also helps efforts such as live patching,
kprobes and BPF, but for other reasons and R&D on this area
is active with no clear solution in sight.
b) help us inch closer to the now generally accepted long term goal
of automating all the MODULE_LICENSE() tags from SPDX license tags
In so far as a) is concerned, although module license tags are a no-op
for non-modules, tools which would want create a mapping of possible
modules can only rely on the module license tag after the commit

module: add debug stats to help identify memory pressure
Loading modules with finit_module() can end up using vmalloc(), vmap()
and vmalloc() again, for a total of up to 3 separate allocations in the
worst case for a single module. We always kernel_read*() the module,
that's a vmalloc(). Then vmap() is used for the module decompression,
and if so the last read buffer is freed as we use the now decompressed
module buffer to stuff data into our copy module. The last allocation is
specific to each architectures but pretty much that's generally a series
of vmalloc() calls or a variation of vmalloc to handle ELF sections with
special permissions.
Evaluation with new stress-ng module support [1] with just 100 ops
is proving that you can end up using GiBs of data easily even with all
care we have in the kernel and userspace today in trying to not load modules
which are already loaded. 100 ops seems to resemble the sort of pressure a
system with about 400 CPUs can create on module loading. Although issues
relating to duplicate module requests due to each CPU inucurring a new
module reuest is silly and some of these are being fixed, we currently lack
proper tooling to help diagnose easily what happened, when it happened
and who likely is to blame -- userspace or kernel module autoloading.
Provide an initial set of stats which use debugfs to let us easily scrape
post-boot information about failed loads. This sort of information can
be used on production worklaods to try to optimize *avoiding* redundant
memory pressure using finit_module().
There's a few examples that can be provided:
A 255 vCPU system without the next patch in this series applied:
Startup finished in 19.143s (kernel) + 7.078s (userspace) = 26.221s
graphical.target reached after 6.988s in userspace
And 13.58 GiB of virtual memory space lost due to failed module loading:

The following screen shot, of a simple 8vcpu 8 GiB KVM guest with the
next patch in this series applied, shows 226.53 MiB are wasted in virtual
memory allocations which due to duplicate module requests during boot.
It also shows an average module memory size of 167.10 KiB and an an
average module .text + .init.text size of 61.13 KiB. The end shows all
modules which were detected as duplicate requests and whether or not
they failed early after just the first kernel_read*() call or late after
we've already allocated the private space for the module in
layout_and_allocate(). A system with module decompression would reveal
more wasted virtual memory space.
We should put effort now into identifying the source of these duplicate
module requests and trimming these down as much possible. Larger systems
will obviously show much more wasted virtual memory allocations.

mm/slab: document kfree() as allowed for kmem_cache_alloc() objects
This will make it easier to free objects in situations when they can come from either kmalloc() or kmem_cache_alloc(), and also allow kfree_rcu() for freeing objects from kmem_cache_alloc(). For the SLAB and SLUB allocators this was always possible so with SLOB gone, we can document it as supported.

mm, printk: introduce new format %pGt for page_type
%pGp format is used to display 'flags' field of a struct page. However, some page flags (i.e. PG_buddy, see page-flags.h for more details) are stored in page_type field. To display human-readable output of page_type, introduce %pGt format. It is important to note the meaning of bits are different in page_type. if page_type is 0xffffffff, no flags are set. Setting PG_buddy (0x00000080) flag results in a page_type of 0xffffff7f. Clearing a bit actually means setting a flag. Bits in page_type are inverted when displaying type names. Only values for which page_type_has_type() returns true are considered as page_type, to avoid confusion with mapcount values. if it returns false, only raw values are displayed and not page type names.

Documentation: core-api: update kernel-doc reference to kmod.c
Commit d6f819908f8aac ("module: fold usermode helper kmod into modules
directory") moves kmod helper implementation (kmod.c) to kernel/module/
directory but forgets to update its reference on kernel api doc, hence:
WARNING: kernel-doc './scripts/kernel-doc -rst -enable-lineno -sphinx-version 2.4.4 -export ./kernel/kmod.c' failed with return code 2
Update the reference.
