name_to_dev_t has a very misleading name, that doesn't make clear
it should only be used by the early init code, and also has a bad
calling convention that doesn't allow returning different kinds of
errors. Rename it to early_lookup_bdev to make the use case clear,
and return an errno, where -EINVAL means the string could not be
parsed, and -ENODEV means it the string was valid, but there was
no device found for it.
Also stub out the whole call for !CONFIG_BLOCK as all the non-block
root cases are always covered in the caller.

This commit addresses this issue by revising the descriptions of these

Workqueue now automatically marks per-cpu work items that hog CPU for too
long as CPU_INTENSIVE, which excludes them from concurrency management and
prevents stalling other concurrency-managed work items. If a work function
keeps running over the thershold, it likely needs to be switched to use an
unbound workqueue.
This patch adds a debug mechanism which tracks the work functions which
trigger the automatic CPU_INTENSIVE mechanism and report them using
pr_warn() with exponential backoff.
v3: Documentation update.
v2: Drop bouncing to kthread_worker for printing messages. It was to avoid
introducing circular locking dependency through printk but not effective
as it still had pool lock -> wci_lock -> printk -> pool lock loop. Let's
just print directly using printk_deferred().

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.

If you build a kernel with CONFIG_PREEMPTION=n and CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT=y,
then run the rcutorture tests specifying stalls as follows:
runqemu kvm slirp nographic qemuparams="-m 1024 -smp 4" \
bootparams="console=ttyS0 rcutorture.stall_cpu=30 \
rcutorture.stall_no_softlockup=1 rcutorture.stall_cpu_block=1" -d
The tests will produce the following splat:
[ 10.841071] rcu-torture: rcu_torture_stall begin CPU stall
[ 10.841073] rcu_torture_stall start on CPU 3.
[ 10.841077] BUG: scheduling while atomic: rcu_torture_sta/66/0x0000000

This is because the rcutorture.stall_cpu_block=1 module parameter causes
rcu_torture_stall() to invoke schedule_timeout_uninterruptible() within
an RCU read-side critical section. This in turn results in a quiescent
state (which prevents the stall) and a sleep in an atomic context (which
produces the above splat).
Although this code is operating as designed, the design has proven to
be counterintuitive to many. This commit therefore updates the description
in kernel-parameters.txt accordingly.

There is often significant latency in the early stages of CPU bringup, and
time is wasted by waking each CPU (e.g. with SIPI/INIT/INIT on x86) and
then waiting for it to respond before moving on to the next.
Allow a platform to enable parallel setup which brings all to be onlined
CPUs up to the CPUHP_BP_KICK_AP state. While this state advancement on the
control CPU (BP) is single-threaded the important part is the last state
CPUHP_BP_KICK_AP which wakes the to be onlined CPUs up.
This allows the CPUs to run up to the first sychronization point
cpuhp_ap_sync_alive() where they wait for the control CPU to release them
one by one for the full onlining procedure.
This parallelism depends on the CPU hotplug core sync mechanism which
ensures that the parallel brought up CPUs wait for release before touching
any state which would make the CPU visible to anything outside the hotplug
control mechanism.
To handle the SMT constraints of X86 correctly the bringup happens in two
iterations when CONFIG_HOTPLUG_SMT is enabled. The control CPU brings up
the primary SMT threads of each core first, which can load the microcode
without the need to rendevouz with the thread siblings. Once that's
completed it brings up the secondary SMT threads.

An SoC can contain multiple power domains with individual or collection
of mesh partitions. This partition is called fabric cluster.
Certain type of meshes will need to run at the same frequency, they will
be placed in the same fabric cluster. Benefit of fabric cluster is that
it offers a scalable mechanism to deal with partitioned fabrics in a SoC.
The current sysfs interface supports control at package and die level.
This interface is not enough to support more granular control at
fabric cluster level.
SoCs with the support of TPMI (Topology Aware Register and PM Capsule
Interface), can have multiple power domains. Each power domain can
contain one or more fabric clusters.
To support such granular controls, enhance uncore common to optionally
create new directories to provide controls at fabric cluster level. It
is also important to have flexibility to change granularity for future
version of SoCs. If the directory name contains scope like:
"package_*_die_*_power_domain_*_cluster_*", then this is not expandable.
The cpufreq policies also have different scopes. There the scope of the
policy (affected_cpus) specified by attributes inside each policy.
So, follow the same model for uncore frequency scaling sysfs as:
"sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/policy*"
Allow client drivers to optionally support granular control for each
fabric cluster. Here, the directory name will be "uncore" suffixed with
an unique instance number. For example: uncore00, uncore01 etc.
Attributes in the directory identify package id, power domain and
fabric cluster id. This interface is expandable even if some new level
of granularity is introduced. A new sysfs attribute can identify new
level.
For compatibility with the existing sysfs and provide easy way to set
limits for each fabric cluster in the package/die, the existing control
at package/die levels are still provided. For majority of users, this is
an easy approach.
For example: On a single package/die system, with three power domains
and one fabric cluster per power domain:
$tree -L 2 /sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_uncore_frequency/
/sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_uncore_frequency/
├── package_00_die_00
│ ├── current_freq_khz

├── fabric_cluster_id
├── initial_max_freq_khz
├── initial_min_freq_khz
├── max_freq_khz
├── min_freq_khz
└── package_id
The attribute for cluster id is "fabric_cluster_id" instead of just
"cluster_id" is to avoid confusion with usage of term clusters in
other part of the Linux kernel.

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
8b41fc4454 ("kbuild: create modules.builtin without Makefile.modbuiltin
or tristate.conf"). Nick has been working on this *for years* and
AFAICT I was the only one to suggest two alternatives to this approach
for tooling. The complexity in one of my suggested approaches lies in
that we'd need a possible-obj-m and a could-be-module which would check
if the object being built is part of any kconfig build which could ever
lead to it being part of a module, and if so define a new define
-DPOSSIBLE_MODULE [0]. A more obvious yet theoretical approach I've
suggested would be to have a tristate in kconfig imply the same new
-DPOSSIBLE_MODULE as well but that means getting kconfig symbol names
mapping to modules always, and I don't think that's the case today. I am
not aware of Nick or anyone exploring either of these options. Quite
recently Josh Poimboeuf has pointed out that live patching, kprobes and
BPF would benefit from resolving some part of the disambiguation as
well but for other reasons. The function granularity KASLR (fgkaslr)
patches were mentioned but Joe Lawrence has clarified this effort has
been dropped with no clear solution in sight [1].
In the meantime removing module license tags from code which could never
be modules is welcomed for both objectives mentioned above. Some
developers have also welcomed these changes as it has helped clarify
when a module was never possible and they forgot to clean this up,
and so you'll see quite a bit of Nick's patches in other pull
requests for this merge window. I just picked up the stragglers after
rc3. LWN has good coverage on the motivation behind this work [2] and
the typical cross-tree issues he ran into along the way. The only
concrete blocker issue he ran into was that we should not remove the
MODULE_LICENSE() tags from files which have no SPDX tags yet, even if
they can never be modules. Nick ended up giving up on his efforts due
to having to do this vetting and backlash he ran into from folks who
really did *not understand* the core of the issue nor were providing
any alternative / guidance. I've gone through his changes and dropped
the patches which dropped the module license tags where an SPDX
license tag was missing, it only consisted of 11 drivers. To see
if a pull request deals with a file which lacks SPDX tags you
can just use:
./scripts/spdxcheck.py -f \
$(git diff --name-only commid-id | xargs echo)
You'll see a core module file in this pull request for the above,
but that's not related to his changes. WE just need to add the SPDX
license tag for the kernel/module/kmod.c file in the future but
it demonstrates the effectiveness of the script.
Most of Nick's changes were spread out through different trees,
and I just picked up the slack after rc3 for the last kernel was out.
Those changes have been in linux-next for over two weeks.
The cleanups, debug code I added and final fix I added for modules
were motivated by David Hildenbrand's report of boot failing on
a systems with over 400 CPUs when KASAN was enabled due to running
out of virtual memory space. Although the functional change only
consists of 3 lines in the patch "module: avoid allocation if module is
already present and ready", proving that this was the best we can
do on the modules side took quite a bit of effort and new debug code.
The initial cleanups I did on the modules side of things has been
in linux-next since around rc3 of the last kernel, the actual final
fix for and debug code however have only been in linux-next for about a
week or so but I think it is worth getting that code in for this merge
window as it does help fix / prove / evaluate the issues reported
with larger number of CPUs. Userspace is not yet fixed as it is taking
a bit of time for folks to understand the crux of the issue and find a
proper resolution. Worst come to worst, I have a kludge-of-concept [3]
of how to make kernel_read*() calls for modules unique / converge them,
but I'm currently inclined to just see if userspace can fix this
instead.

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:
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
8b41fc4454 ("kbuild: create modules.builtin without
Makefile.modbuiltin or tristate.conf").
Nick has been working on this *for years* and AFAICT I was the only
one to suggest two alternatives to this approach for tooling. The
complexity in one of my suggested approaches lies in that we'd need a
possible-obj-m and a could-be-module which would check if the object
being built is part of any kconfig build which could ever lead to it
being part of a module, and if so define a new define
-DPOSSIBLE_MODULE [0].
A more obvious yet theoretical approach I've suggested would be to
have a tristate in kconfig imply the same new -DPOSSIBLE_MODULE as
well but that means getting kconfig symbol names mapping to modules
always, and I don't think that's the case today. I am not aware of
Nick or anyone exploring either of these options. Quite recently Josh
Poimboeuf has pointed out that live patching, kprobes and BPF would
benefit from resolving some part of the disambiguation as well but for
other reasons. The function granularity KASLR (fgkaslr) patches were
mentioned but Joe Lawrence has clarified this effort has been dropped
with no clear solution in sight [1].
In the meantime removing module license tags from code which could
never be modules is welcomed for both objectives mentioned above. Some
developers have also welcomed these changes as it has helped clarify
when a module was never possible and they forgot to clean this up, and
so you'll see quite a bit of Nick's patches in other pull requests for
this merge window. I just picked up the stragglers after rc3. LWN has
good coverage on the motivation behind this work [2] and the typical
cross-tree issues he ran into along the way. The only concrete blocker
issue he ran into was that we should not remove the MODULE_LICENSE()
tags from files which have no SPDX tags yet, even if they can never be
modules. Nick ended up giving up on his efforts due to having to do
this vetting and backlash he ran into from folks who really did *not
understand* the core of the issue nor were providing any alternative /
guidance. I've gone through his changes and dropped the patches which
dropped the module license tags where an SPDX license tag was missing,
it only consisted of 11 drivers. To see if a pull request deals with a
file which lacks SPDX tags you can just use:
./scripts/spdxcheck.py -f \
$(git diff --name-only commid-id | xargs echo)
You'll see a core module file in this pull request for the above, but
that's not related to his changes. WE just need to add the SPDX
license tag for the kernel/module/kmod.c file in the future but it
demonstrates the effectiveness of the script.
Most of Nick's changes were spread out through different trees, and I
just picked up the slack after rc3 for the last kernel was out. Those
changes have been in linux-next for over two weeks.
The cleanups, debug code I added and final fix I added for modules
were motivated by David Hildenbrand's report of boot failing on a
systems with over 400 CPUs when KASAN was enabled due to running out
of virtual memory space. Although the functional change only consists
of 3 lines in the patch "module: avoid allocation if module is already
present and ready", proving that this was the best we can do on the
modules side took quite a bit of effort and new debug code.
The initial cleanups I did on the modules side of things has been in
linux-next since around rc3 of the last kernel, the actual final fix
for and debug code however have only been in linux-next for about a
week or so but I think it is worth getting that code in for this merge
window as it does help fix / prove / evaluate the issues reported with
larger number of CPUs. Userspace is not yet fixed as it is taking a
bit of time for folks to understand the crux of the issue and find a
proper resolution. Worst come to worst, I have a kludge-of-concept [3]
of how to make kernel_read*() calls for modules unique / converge
them, but I'm currently inclined to just see if userspace can fix this
instead"

Here is the large set of driver core changes for 6.4-rc1.
Once again, a busy development cycle, with lots of changes happening in
the driver core in the quest to be able to move "struct bus" and "struct
class" into read-only memory, a task now complete with these changes.
This will make the future rust interactions with the driver core more
"provably correct" as well as providing more obvious lifetime rules for
all busses and classes in the kernel.
The changes required for this did touch many individual classes and
busses as many callbacks were changed to take const * parameters
instead. All of these changes have been submitted to the various
subsystem maintainers, giving them plenty of time to review, and most of
them actually did so.
Other than those changes, included in here are a small set of other
things:
- kobject logging improvements
- cacheinfo improvements and updates
- obligatory fw_devlink updates and fixes
- documentation updates
- device property cleanups and const * changes
- firwmare loader dependency fixes.
All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
problems.

Add 2 early command line parameters that allow to downgrade satp mode
(using the same naming as x86):
- "no5lvl": use a 4-level page table (down from sv57 to sv48)
- "no4lvl": use a 3-level page table (down from sv57/sv48 to sv39)
Note that going through the device tree to get the kernel command line
works with ACPI too since the efi stub creates a device tree anyway with
the command line.
In KASAN kernels, we can't use the libfdt that early in the boot process
since we are not ready to execute instrumented functions. So instead of
using the "generic" libfdt, we compile our own versions of those functions
that are not instrumented and that are prefixed so that they do not
conflict with the generic ones. We also need the non-instrumented versions
of the string functions and the prefixed versions of memcpy/memmove.
This is largely inspired by commit aacd149b62 ("arm64: head: avoid
relocating the kernel twice for KASLR") from which I removed compilation
flags that were not relevant to RISC-V at the moment (LTO, SCS). Also
note that we have to link with -z norelro to avoid ld.lld to throw a
warning with the new .got sections, like in commit 311bea3cb9 ("arm64:
link with -z norelro for LLD or aarch64-elf").

Besides the code cleanup, the main immediate benefit will be allowing
kfree() family of function to work on kmem_cache_alloc() objects,
which was incompatible with SLOB. This includes kfree_rcu() which had
no kmem_cache_free_rcu() counterpart yet and now it shouldn't be
necessary anymore.

This adds the general_profit KSM sysfs knob and the process profit metric
knobs to ksm_stat.
1) expose general_profit metric
The documentation mentions a general profit metric, however this
metric is not calculated. In addition the formula depends on the size
of internal structures, which makes it more difficult for an
administrator to make the calculation. Adding the metric for a better
user experience.
2) document general_profit sysfs knob
3) calculate ksm process profit metric
The ksm documentation mentions the process profit metric and how to
calculate it. This adds the calculation of the metric.
4) mm: expose ksm process profit metric in ksm_stat
This exposes the ksm process profit metric in /proc/<pid>/ksm_stat.
The documentation mentions the formula for the ksm process profit
metric, however it does not calculate it. In addition the formula
depends on the size of internal structures. So it makes sense to
expose it.
5) document new procfs ksm knobs

The finit_module() system call can in the worst case use up to more than
twice of a module's size in virtual memory. Duplicate finit_module()
system calls are non fatal, however they unnecessarily strain virtual
memory during bootup and in the worst case can cause a system to fail
to boot. This is only known to currently be an issue on systems with
larger number of CPUs.
To help debug this situation we need to consider the different sources for
finit_module(). Requests from the kernel that rely on module auto-loading,
ie, the kernel's *request_module() API, are one source of calls. Although
modprobe checks to see if a module is already loaded prior to calling
finit_module() there is a small race possible allowing userspace to
trigger multiple modprobe calls racing against modprobe and this not
seeing the module yet loaded.
This adds debugging support to the kernel module auto-loader (*request_module()
calls) to easily detect duplicate module requests. To aid with possible bootup
failure issues incurred by this, it will converge duplicates requests to a
single request. This avoids any possible strain on virtual memory during
bootup which could be incurred by duplicate module autoloading requests.
Folks debugging virtual memory abuse on bootup can and should enable
this to see what pr_warn()s come on, to see if module auto-loading is to
blame for their wores. If they see duplicates they can further debug this
by enabling the module.enable_dups_trace kernel parameter or by enabling
CONFIG_MODULE_DEBUG_AUTOLOAD_DUPS_TRACE.
Current evidence seems to point to only a few duplicates for module
auto-loading. And so the source for other duplicates creating heavy
virtual memory pressure due to larger number of CPUs should becoming
from another place (likely udev).

LoongArch maintains cache coherency in hardware, but when paired with
LS7A chipsets the WUC attribute (Weak-ordered UnCached, which is similar
to WriteCombine) is out of the scope of cache coherency machanism for
PCIe devices (this is a PCIe protocol violation, which may be fixed in
newer chipsets).
This means WUC can only used for write-only memory regions now, so this
option is disabled by default, making WUC silently fallback to SUC for
ioremap(). You can enable this option if the kernel is ensured to run on
hardware without this bug.
Kernel parameter writecombine=on/off can be used to override the Kconfig
option.

UFFDIO_COPY already has UFFDIO_COPY_MODE_WP, so when installing a new PTE
to resolve a missing fault, one can install a write-protected one. This
is useful when using UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_{MISSING,WP} in combination.
This was motivated by testing HugeTLB HGM [1], and in particular its
interaction with userfaultfd features. Existing userfaultfd code supports
using WP and MINOR modes together (i.e. you can register an area with
both enabled), but without this CONTINUE flag the combination is in
practice unusable.
So, add an analogous UFFDIO_CONTINUE_MODE_WP, which does the same thing as
UFFDIO_COPY_MODE_WP, but for *minor* faults.
Update the selftest to do some very basic exercising of the new flag.
Update Documentation/ to describe how these flags are used (neither the
COPY nor the new CONTINUE versions of this mode flag were described there
before).

Patch series "mm/uffd: Add feature bit UFFD_FEATURE_WP_UNPOPULATED", v4.
The new feature bit makes anonymous memory acts the same as file memory on
userfaultfd-wp in that it'll also wr-protect none ptes.
It can be useful in two cases:
(1) Uffd-wp app that needs to wr-protect none ptes like QEMU snapshot,
so pre-fault can be replaced by enabling this flag and speed up
protections
(2) It helps to implement async uffd-wp mode that Muhammad is working on [1]
It's debatable whether this is the most ideal solution because with the
new feature bit set, wr-protect none pte needs to pre-populate the
pgtables to the last level (PAGE_SIZE). But it seems fine so far to
service either purpose above, so we can leave optimizations for later.
The series brings pte markers to anonymous memory too. There's some
change in the common mm code path in the 1st patch, great to have some eye
looking at it, but hopefully they're still relatively straightforward.
This patch (of 2):
This is a new feature that controls how uffd-wp handles none ptes. When
it's set, the kernel will handle anonymous memory the same way as file
memory, by allowing the user to wr-protect unpopulated ptes.
File memories handles none ptes consistently by allowing wr-protecting of
none ptes because of the unawareness of page cache being exist or not.
For anonymous it was not as persistent because we used to assume that we
don't need protections on none ptes or known zero pages.
One use case of such a feature bit was VM live snapshot, where if without
wr-protecting empty ptes the snapshot can contain random rubbish in the
holes of the anonymous memory, which can cause misbehave of the guest when
the guest OS assumes the pages should be all zeros.
QEMU worked it around by pre-populate the section with reads to fill in
zero page entries before starting the whole snapshot process [1].
Recently there's another need raised on using userfaultfd wr-protect for
detecting dirty pages (to replace soft-dirty in some cases) [2]. In that
case if without being able to wr-protect none ptes by default, the dirty
info can get lost, since we cannot treat every none pte to be dirty (the
current design is identify a page dirty based on uffd-wp bit being
cleared).
In general, we want to be able to wr-protect empty ptes too even for
anonymous.
This patch implements UFFD_FEATURE_WP_UNPOPULATED so that it'll make
uffd-wp handling on none ptes being consistent no matter what the memory
type is underneath. It doesn't have any impact on file memories so far
because we already have pte markers taking care of that. So it only
affects anonymous.
The feature bit is by default off, so the old behavior will be maintained.
Sometimes it may be wanted because the wr-protect of none ptes will
contain overheads not only during UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT (by applying pte
markers to anonymous), but also on creating the pgtables to store the pte
markers. So there's potentially less chance of using thp on the first
fault for a none pmd or larger than a pmd.
The major implementation part is teaching the whole kernel to understand
pte markers even for anonymously mapped ranges, meanwhile allowing the
UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT ioctl to apply pte markers for anonymous too when the
new feature bit is set.
Note that even if the patch subject starts with mm/uffd, there're a few
small refactors to major mm path of handling anonymous page faults. But
they should be straightforward.
With WP_UNPOPUATED, application like QEMU can avoid pre-read faults all
the memory before wr-protect during taking a live snapshot. Quotting from
Muhammad's test result here [3] based on a simple program [4]:
(1) With huge page disabled
echo madvise > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled
./uffd_wp_perf
Test DEFAULT: 4
Test PRE-READ: 1111453 (pre-fault 1101011)
Test MADVISE: 278276 (pre-fault 266378)
Test WP-UNPOPULATE: 11712
(2) With Huge page enabled
echo always > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled
./uffd_wp_perf
Test DEFAULT: 4
Test PRE-READ: 22521 (pre-fault 22348)
Test MADVISE: 4909 (pre-fault 4743)
Test WP-UNPOPULATE: 14448
There'll be a great perf boost for no-thp case, while for thp enabled with
extreme case of all-thp-zero WP_UNPOPULATED can be slower than MADVISE,
but that's low possibility in reality, also the overhead was not reduced
but postponed until a follow up write on any huge zero thp, so potentially
it is faster by making the follow up writes slower.

Add a text explaining how to quickly build a kernel, as that's something
users will often have to do when they want to report an issue or test
proposed fixes. This is a huge and frightening task for quite a few
users these days, as many rely on pre-compiled kernels and have never
built their own. They find help on quite a few websites explaining the
process in various ways, but those howtos often omit important details
or make things too hard for the 'quickly build just for testing' case
that 'localmodconfig' is really useful for. Hence give users something
at hand to guide them, as that makes it easier for them to help with
testing, debugging, and fixing the kernel.
To keep the complexity at bay, the document explicitly focuses on how to
compile the kernel on commodity distributions running on commodity
hardware. People that deal with less common distributions or hardware
will often know their way around already anyway.
The text describes a few oddities of Arch and Debian that were found by
the author and a few volunteers that tested the described procedure.
There are likely more such quirks that need to be covered as well as a
few things the author will have missed -- but one has to start
somewhere.
The document heavily uses anchors and links to them, which makes things
slightly harder to read in the source form. But the intended target
audience is way more likely to read rendered versions of this text on
pages like docs.kernel.org anyway -- and there those anchors and links
allow easy jumps to the reference section and back, which makes the
document a lot easier to work with for the intended target audience.
Aspects relevant for bisection were left out on purpose, as that is a
related, but in the end different use case. The rough plan is to have a
second document with a similar style to cover bisection. The idea is to
reuse a few bits from this document and link quite often to entries in
the reference section with the help of the anchors in this text.

From ACPI spec below 3 modes for CPPC can be defined:
1. Non autonomous: OS scaling governor specifies operating frequency/
performance level through `Desired Performance` register and platform
follows that.
2. Guided autonomous: OS scaling governor specifies min and max
frequencies/ performance levels through `Minimum Performance` and
`Maximum Performance` register, and platform can autonomously select an
operating frequency in this range.
3. Fully autonomous: OS only hints (via EPP) to platform for the required
energy performance preference for the workload and platform autonomously
scales the frequency.
Currently (1) is supported by amd_pstate as passive mode, and (3) is
implemented by EPP support. This change is to support (2).
In guided autonomous mode the min_perf is based on the input from the
scaling governor. For example, in case of schedutil this value depends
on the current utilization. And max_perf is set to max capacity.
To activate guided auto mode ``amd_pstate=guided`` command line
parameter has to be passed in the kernel.

When all devices that could probe have finished probing (based on
deferred_probe_timeout configuration or late_initcall() when
!CONFIG_MODULES), this parameter controls what to do with devices that
haven't yet received their sync_state() calls.
fw_devlink.sync_state=strict is the default and the driver core will
continue waiting on all consumers of a device to probe successfully
before sync_state() is called for the device. This is the default
behavior since calling sync_state() on a device when all its consumers
haven't probed could make some systems unusable/unstable. When this
option is selected, we also print the list of devices that haven't had
sync_state() called on them by the time all devices the could probe have
finished probing.
fw_devlink.sync_state=timeout will cause the driver core to give up
waiting on consumers and call sync_state() on any devices that haven't
yet received their sync_state() calls. This option is provided for
systems that won't become unusable/unstable as they might be able to
save power (depends on state of hardware before kernel starts) if all
devices get their sync_state().

The console= kernel command-line parameter defines where the kernel
messages appear. It can be used multiple times to make the kernel log
visible on more devices.
The ordering of the console= parameters is important. In particular,
the last one defines which device can be accessed also via /dev/console.
The behavior is more complicated when the last console= parameter is
ignored by kernel. It might be surprising because it was not intentional.
The kernel just works this way historically.
There were few attempts to change the behavior. Unfortunately, it can't
be done because it would break existing users. Document the historical
behavior at least.

There are only a handful of users of gpio_export() and
related functions.
As these are just wrappers around the modern gpiod_export()
helper, remove the wrappers and open-code the gpio_to_desc
in all callers to shrink the legacy API.

CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED was added in commit 88a22c985e
("CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED") in 2006 to allow systems with older versions
of some tools (i.e. Fedora 3's version of udev) to boot properly. Four
years later, in 2010, the option was attempted to be removed as most of
userspace should have been fixed up properly by then, but some kernel
developers clung to those old systems and refused to update, so we added
CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED_V2 in commit e52eec13cd ("SYSFS: Allow boot
time switching between deprecated and modern sysfs layout") to allow
them to continue to boot properly, and we allowed a boot time parameter
to be used to switch back to the old format if needed.
Over time, the logic that was covered under these config options was
slowly removed from individual driver subsystems successfully, removed,
and the only thing that is now left in the kernel are some changes in
the block layer's representation in sysfs where real directories are
used instead of symlinks like normal.
Because the original changes were done to userspace tools in 2006, and
all distros that use those tools are long end-of-life, and older
non-udev-based systems do not care about the block layer's sysfs
representation, it is time to finally remove this old logic and the
config entries from the kernel.

Pull PCI updates from Bjorn Helgaas:
"Enumeration:
- Rework portdrv shutdown so it disables interrupts but doesn't
disable bus mastering, which leads to hangs on Loongson LS7A
- Add mechanism to prevent Max_Read_Request_Size (MRRS) increases,
again to avoid hardware issues on Loongson LS7A (and likely other
devices based on DesignWare IP)
- Ignore devices with a firmware (DT or ACPI) node that says the
device is disabled
Resource management:
- Distribute spare resources to unconfigured hotplug bridges at
boot-time (not just when hot-adding such a bridge), which makes
hot-adding devices to docks work better. Tried this in v6.1 but had
to revert for regressions, so try again
- Fix root bus issue that dropped resources that happened to end
at 0, e.g., [bus 00]
PCI device hotplug:
- Remove device locking when marking device as disconnected so this
doesn't have to wait for concurrent driver bind/unbind to complete
- Quirk more Qualcomm bridges that don't fully implement the PCIe
Slot Status 'Command Completed' bit
Power management:
- Account for _S0W of the target bridge in acpi_pci_bridge_d3() so we
don't miss hot-add notifications for USB4 docks, Thunderbolt, etc
Reset:
- Observe delay after reset, e.g., resuming from system sleep,
regardless of whether a bridge can suspend to D3cold at runtime
- Wait for secondary bus to become ready after a bridge reset
Virtualization:
- Avoid FLR on some AMD FCH AHCI adapters where it doesn't work
- Allow independent IOMMU groups for some Wangxun NICs that prevent
peer-to-peer transactions but don't advertise an ACS Capability
Error handling:
- Configure End-to-End-CRC (ECRC) only if Linux owns the AER
Capability
- Remove redundant Device Control Error Reporting Enable in the AER
service driver since this is already done for all devices during
enumeration
ASPM:
- Add pci_enable_link_state() interface to allow drivers to enable
ASPM link state
Endpoint framework:
- Move dra7xx and tegra194 linkup processing from hard IRQ to
threaded IRQ handler
- Add a separate lock for endpoint controller list of endpoint
function drivers to prevent deadlock in callbacks
- Pass events from endpoint controller to endpoint function drivers
via callbacks instead of notifiers
Synopsys DesignWare eDMA controller driver (acked by Vinod):
- Fix CPU vs PCI address issues
- Fix source vs destination address issues
- Fix issues with interleaved transfer semantics
- Fix channel count initialization issue (issue still exists in
several other drivers)
- Clean up and improve debugfs usage so it will work on platforms
with several eDMA devices
Baikal T-1 PCIe controller driver:
- Set a 64-bit DMA mask
Freescale i.MX6 PCIe controller driver:
- Add i.MX8MM, i.MX8MQ, i.MX8MP endpoint mode DT binding and driver
support
Intel VMD host bridge driver:
- Add quirk to configure PCIe ASPM and LTR. This is normally done by
BIOS, and will be for future products
Marvell MVEBU PCIe controller driver:
- Mark this driver as broken in Kconfig since bugs prevent its daily
usage
MediaTek MT7621 PCIe controller driver:
- Delay PHY port initialization to improve boot reliability for ZBT
WE1326, ZBT WF3526-P, and some Netgear models
Qualcomm PCIe controller driver:
- Add MSM8998 DT compatible string
- Unify MSM8996 and MSM8998 clock orderings
- Add SM8350 DT binding and driver support
- Add IPQ8074 Gen3 DT binding and driver support
- Correct qcom,perst-regs in DT binding
- Add qcom_pcie_host_deinit() so the PHY is powered off and
regulators and clocks are disabled on late host-init errors
Socionext UniPhier Pro5 controller driver:
- Clean up uniphier-ep reg, clocks, resets, and their names in DT
binding
Synopsys DesignWare PCIe controller driver:
- Restrict coherent DMA mask to 32 bits for MSI, but allow controller
drivers to set 64-bit streaming DMA mask
- Add eDMA engine support in both Root Port and Endpoint controllers
Miscellaneous:
- Remove MODULE_LICENSE from boolean drivers so they don't look like
modules so modprobe can complain about them"

Here is the big set of serial and tty driver updates for 6.3-rc1.
Once again, Jiri and Ilpo have done a number of core vt and tty/serial
layer cleanups that were much needed and appreciated. Other than that,
it's just a bunch of little tty/serial driver updates:
- qcom-geni-serial driver updates
- liteuart driver updates
- hvcs driver cleanups
- n_gsm updates and additions for new features
- more 8250 device support added
- fpga/dfl update and additions
- imx serial driver updates
- fsl_lpuart updates
- other tiny fixes and updates for serial drivers
All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
problems.

* Eliminate repeated boxing and unboxing of log item parameters.
* Clean up some confusing variable names in the log item code.
* Fix a deadlock when doing unwritten extent conversion that causes a
bmbt split when there are sustained memory shortages and the worker
pool runs out of worker threads.
* Fix the panic_mask debug knob not being able to trigger on verifier
errors.
* Constify kobj_type objects.

Pull xfs updates from Darrick Wong:
"There's a couple of bug fixes, some cleanups for inconsistent variable
names and reduction of struct boxing and unboxing in the logging code.
More work is pending, which will begin reworking allocation group
lifetimes and finally replace confusing indirect calls to the
allocator with actual ... function calls. But I want to let that
experience another week of testing.
Summary:
- Eliminate repeated boxing and unboxing of log item parameters
- Clean up some confusing variable names in the log item code
- Fix a deadlock when doing unwritten extent conversion that causes a
bmbt split when there are sustained memory shortages and the worker
pool runs out of worker threads
- Fix the panic_mask debug knob not being able to trigger on verifier
errors
- Constify kobj_type objects"
