treewide: const qualify ctl_tables where applicable
Add the const qualifier to all the ctl_tables in the tree except for
watchdog_hardlockup_sysctl, memory_allocation_profiling_sysctls,
loadpin_sysctl_table and the ones calling register_net_sysctl (./net,
drivers/inifiniband dirs). These are special cases as they use a
registration function with a non-const qualified ctl_table argument or
modify the arrays before passing them on to the registration function.
Constifying ctl_table structs will prevent the modification of
proc_handler function pointers as the arrays would reside in .rodata.
This is made possible after commit

The various patchsets are summarized below. Plus of course many
indivudual patches which are described in their changelogs. - "Allocate and free frozen pages" from Matthew Wilcox reorganizes the page allocator so we end up with the ability to allocate and free zero-refcount pages. So that callers (ie, slab) can avoid a refcount inc & dec. - "Support large folios for tmpfs" from Baolin Wang teaches tmpfs to use large folios other than PMD-sized ones. - "Fix mm/rodata_test" from Petr Tesarik performs some maintenance and fixes for this small built-in kernel selftest. - "mas_anode_descend() related cleanup" from Wei Yang tidies up part of the mapletree code. - "mm: fix format issues and param types" from Keren Sun implements a few minor code cleanups. - "simplify split calculation" from Wei Yang provides a few fixes and a test for the mapletree code. - "mm/vma: make more mmap logic userland testable" from Lorenzo Stoakes continues the work of moving vma-related code into the (relatively) new mm/vma.c. - "mm/page_alloc: gfp flags cleanups for alloc_contig_*()" from David Hildenbrand cleans up and rationalizes handling of gfp flags in the page allocator. - "readahead: Reintroduce fix for improper RA window sizing" from Jan Kara is a second attempt at fixing a readahead window sizing issue.

mm/memblock: add memblock_alloc_or_panic interface
Before SLUB initialization, various subsystems used memblock_alloc to allocate memory. In most cases, when memory allocation fails, an immediate panic is required. To simplify this behavior and reduce repetitive checks, introduce `memblock_alloc_or_panic`. This function ensures that memory allocation failures result in a panic automatically, improving code readability and consistency across subsystems that require this behavior. [guoweikang.kernel@gmail.com: arch/s390: save_area_alloc default failure behavior changed to panic] Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20250109033136.2845676-1-guoweikang.kernel@gmail.com Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/Z2fknmnNtiZbCc7x@kernel.org/ Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20250102072528.650926-1-guoweikang.kernel@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Guo Weikang <guoweikang.kernel@gmail.com> Acked-by: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert@linux-m68k.org> [m68k] Reviewed-by: Alexander Gordeev <agordeev@linux.ibm.com> [s390] Acked-by: Mike Rapoport (Microsoft) <rppt@kernel.org> Cc: Alexander Gordeev <agordeev@linux.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> |

s390/hiperdispatch: Introduce hiperdispatch
When LPAR is in vertical polarization, CPUs get different polarization values, namely vertical high, vertical medium and vertical low. These values represent the likelyhood of the CPU getting physical runtime. Vertical high CPUs will always get runtime and others get varying runtime depending on the load the CEC is under. Vertical high and vertical medium CPUs are considered the CPUs which the current LPAR has the entitlement to run on. The vertical lows are on the other hand are borrowed CPUs which would only be given to the LPAR by hipervisor when the other LPARs are not utilizing them. Using the CPU capacities, hint linux scheduler when it should prioritise vertical high and vertical medium CPUs over vertical low CPUs. By tracking various system statistics hiperdispatch determines when to adjust cpu capacities. After each adjustment, rebuilding of scheduler domains is necessary to notify the scheduler about capacity changes but since this operation is costly it should be done as sparsely as possible.

const qualify the struct ctl_table argument in the proc_handler function

* Code formatting was adjusted in xfs_sysctl.c to comply with code

adjusted.
* The ctl_table argument in proc_watchdog_common was const qualified.
This is called from a proc_handler itself and is calling back into
another proc_handler, making it necessary to change it as part of the
proc_handler migration.

sysctl-6.7-rc1
To help make the move of sysctls out of kernel/sysctl.c not incur a size
penalty sysctl has been changed to allow us to not require the sentinel, the
final empty element on the sysctl array. Joel Granados has been doing all this
work. On the v6.6 kernel we got the major infrastructure changes required to
support this. For v6.7-rc1 we have all arch/ and drivers/ modified to remove
the sentinel. Both arch and driver changes have been on linux-next for a bit
less than a month. It is worth re-iterating the value:
- this helps reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run time
memory consumed by the kernel by about ~64 bytes per array
- the extra 64-byte penalty is no longer inncurred now when we move sysctls
out from kernel/sysctl.c to their own files
For v6.8-rc1 expect removal of all the sentinels and also then the unneeded
check for procname == NULL.
The last 2 patches are fixes recently merged by Krister Johansen which allow
us again to use softlockup_panic early on boot. This used to work but the
alias work broke it. This is useful for folks who want to detect softlockups
super early rather than wait and spend money on cloud solutions with nothing
but an eventual hung kernel. Although this hadn't gone through linux-next it's

Merge tag 'sysctl-6.7-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mcgrof/linux
Pull sysctl updates from Luis Chamberlain:
"To help make the move of sysctls out of kernel/sysctl.c not incur a
size penalty sysctl has been changed to allow us to not require the
sentinel, the final empty element on the sysctl array. Joel Granados
has been doing all this work. On the v6.6 kernel we got the major
infrastructure changes required to support this. For v6.7-rc1 we have
all arch/ and drivers/ modified to remove the sentinel. Both arch and
driver changes have been on linux-next for a bit less than a month. It
is worth re-iterating the value:
- this helps reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run
time memory consumed by the kernel by about ~64 bytes per array
- the extra 64-byte penalty is no longer inncurred now when we move
sysctls out from kernel/sysctl.c to their own files
For v6.8-rc1 expect removal of all the sentinels and also then the
unneeded check for procname == NULL.
The last two patches are fixes recently merged by Krister Johansen
which allow us again to use softlockup_panic early on boot. This used
to work but the alias work broke it. This is useful for folks who want
to detect softlockups super early rather than wait and spend money on
cloud solutions with nothing but an eventual hung kernel. Although
this hadn't gone through linux-next it's also a stable fix, so we
might as well roll through the fixes now"

S390: Remove now superfluous sentinel elem from ctl_table arrays
This commit comes at the tail end of a greater effort to remove the empty elements at the end of the ctl_table arrays (sentinels) which will reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run time memory bloat by ~64 bytes per sentinel (further information Link : https://lore.kernel.org/all/ZO5Yx5JFogGi%2FcBo@bombadil.infradead.org/) Remove the sentinel element from appldata_table, s390dbf_table, topology_ctl_table, cmm_table and page_table_sysctl. Reduced the memory allocation in appldata_register_ops by 1 effectively removing the sentinel from ops->ctl_table. This removal is safe because register_sysctl_sz and register_sysctl use the array size in addition to checking for the sentinel.

s390/topology: fix topology information when calling cpu hotplug notifiers
The cpu hotplug notifiers are called without updating the core/thread masks when a new CPU is added. This causes problems with code setting up data structures in a cpu hotplug notifier, and relying on that later in normal code. This caused a crash in the new core scheduling code (SCHED_CORE), where rq->core was set up in a notifier depending on cpu masks. To fix this, add a cpu_setup_mask which is used in update_cpu_masks() instead of the cpu_online_mask to determine whether the cpu masks should be set for a certain cpu. Also move update_cpu_masks() to update the masks before calling notify_cpu_starting() so that the notifiers are seeing the updated masks.

However it does provide maintenance cost and breaks from time to time. Therefore remove it. CONFIG_NUMA is still supported with a very small backend and only one node. This way userspace applications which require NUMA interfaces continue to work. Note that NODES_SHIFT is set to 1 (= 2 nodes) instead of 0 (= 1 node), since there is quite a bit of kernel code which assumes that more than one node is possible if CONFIG_NUMA is enabled.

proc/sysctl: add shared variables for range check
In the sysctl code the proc_dointvec_minmax() function is often used to
validate the user supplied value between an allowed range. This
function uses the extra1 and extra2 members from struct ctl_table as
minimum and maximum allowed value.
On sysctl handler declaration, in every source file there are some
readonly variables containing just an integer which address is assigned
to the extra1 and extra2 members, so the sysctl range is enforced.
The special values 0, 1 and INT_MAX are very often used as range
boundary, leading duplication of variables like zero=0, one=1,
int_max=INT_MAX in different source files:
$ git grep -E '\.extra[12].*&(zero|one|int_max)' |wc -l
248
Add a const int array containing the most commonly used values, some
macros to refer more easily to the correct array member, and use them
instead of creating a local one for every object file.

compiled with the default Fedora config:

treewide: add checks for the return value of memblock_alloc*()
Add check for the return value of memblock_alloc*() functions and call
panic() in case of error. The panic message repeats the one used by
panicing memblock allocators with adjustment of parameters to include
only relevant ones.
The replacement was mostly automated with semantic patches like the one
below with manual massaging of format strings.

s390: kernel: add SPDX identifiers to the remaining files
It's good to have SPDX identifiers in all files to make it easier to audit the kernel tree for correct licenses. Update the arch/s390/kernel/ files with the correct SPDX license identifier based on the license text in the file itself. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

Merge branch 'timers-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull timer updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Yet another big pile of changes:
- More year 2038 work from Arnd slowly reaching the point where we
need to think about the syscalls themself.
- A new timer function which allows to conditionally (re)arm a timer
only when it's either not running or the new expiry time is sooner
than the armed expiry time. This allows to use a single timer for
multiple timeout requirements w/o caring about the first expiry
time at the call site.
- A new NMI safe accessor to clock real time for the printk timestamp
work. Can be used by tracing, perf as well if required.
- A large number of timer setup conversions from Kees which got
collected here because either maintainers requested so or they
simply got ignored. As Kees pointed out already there are a few
trivial merge conflicts and some redundant commits which was
unavoidable due to the size of this conversion effort.
- Avoid a redundant iteration in the timer wheel softirq processing.
- Provide a mechanism to treat RTC implementations depending on their
hardware properties, i.e. don't inflict the write at the 0.5
seconds boundary which originates from the PC CMOS RTC to all RTCs.
No functional change as drivers need to be updated separately.
- The usual small updates to core code clocksource drivers. Nothing
really exciting"

s390/topology: alternative topology for topology-less machines
If running on machines that do not provide topology information we currently generate a "fake" topology which defines the maximum distance between each cpu: each cpu will be put into an own drawer. Historically this used to be the best option for (virtual) machines in overcommited hypervisors. For some workloads however it is better to generate a different topology where all cpus are siblings within a package (all cpus are core siblings). This shows performance improvements of up to 10%, depending on the workload. In order to keep the current behaviour, but also allow to switch to the different core sibling topology use the existing "topology=" kernel parameter: Specifying "topology=on" on machines without topology information will generate the core siblings (fake) topology information, instead of the default topology information where all cpus have the maximum distance. On machines which provide topology information specifying "topology=on" does not have any effect.

s390/sysinfo,topology: provide raw stsi 15,1,x data via debugfs
Provide the raw stsi 15,1,x data contents via debugfs. This makes it much easier to debug unexpected scheduling domains on machines that provide cpu topology information. Therefore this file adds a new 's390/stsi' debugfs directory with a file for each possible topology nesting level that is allowed by the architecture. The files will be created regardless if the machine supports all, or any, level. If a level is not supported, or no data is available, user space can recognize this with a -EINVAL error code when trying to read such data. In addition a 'topology' symlink is created that points to the file that contains the data that is used to create the scheduling domains.
