The main updates for this release are around monitoring of regulators,
largely for error handling purposes. We allow the stream of regulator
events to be seen by userspace as netlink events and allow system
integrators to describe individual regulators as system critical with
information on how long the system is expected to last on error. The
system level error handling is very much about best effort problem
mitigation rather than providing something fully robust, the initial
drive was to provide a mechanism for trying to avoid initiating any new
writes to flash once we notice the power going out.
Otherwise it's very quiet, mainly several new Qualcomm devices.
- Support for marking regulators as system critical and providing
information on how long the system might last with those regulators
in a failure state, hooked into the existing critical shutdown error
handling.
- Optional support for generating netlink events for events, there are
use cases for system monitoring UIs and error handling.
- A command line option to leave unused controllable regulators
enabled, useful for debugging. We already only disable regulators we
were explicitly given permission to control.
- Support for Quacomm MP5496, PM8010 and PM8937.

- Yafang Shao added task_get_cgroup1() helper to enable a similar BPF helper
so that BPF progs can be more useful on cgroup1 hierarchies. While cgroup1
is mostly in maintenance mode, this addition is very small while having an
outsized usefulness for users who are still on cgroup1. Yafang also
optimized root cgroup list access by making it RCU protected in the
process.
- Waiman Long optimized rstat operation leading to substantially lower and
more consistent lock hold time while flushing the hierarchical statistics.
As the lock can be acquired briefly in various hot paths, this reduction
has cascading benefits.
- Waiman also improved the quality of isolation for cpuset's isolated
partitions. CPUs which are allocated to isolated partitions are now
excluded from running unbound work items and cpu_is_isolated() test which
is used by vmstat and memcg to reduce interference now includes cpuset
isolated CPUs. While it isn't there yet, the hope is eventually reaching
parity with the isolation level provided by the `isolcpus` boot param but
in a dynamic manner.
This involved a couple workqueue patches which were applied directly to
cgroup/for-6.8 rather than ping-ponged through the wq tree. This was
because the wq code change was small and the area is usually very static
and unlikely to cause conflicts. However, luck had it that there was a wq
bug fix in the area during the 6.7 cycle which caused a conflict. The
conflict is contextual but can be a bit confusing to resolve, so there is
one merge from wq/for-6.7-fixes.

The kernel-abi directive passes its argument straight to the shell.
This is unfortunate and unnecessary.
Let's always use paths relative to $srctree/Documentation/ and use
subprocess.check_call() instead of subprocess.Popen(shell=True).

During our experiment with zswap, we sometimes observe swap IOs due to
occasional zswap store failures and writebacks-to-swap. These swapping
IOs prevent many users who cannot tolerate swapping from adopting zswap to
save memory and improve performance where possible.
This patch adds the option to disable this behavior entirely: do not
writeback to backing swapping device when a zswap store attempt fail, and
do not write pages in the zswap pool back to the backing swap device (both
when the pool is full, and when the new zswap shrinker is called).
This new behavior can be opted-in/out on a per-cgroup basis via a new
cgroup file. By default, writebacks to swap device is enabled, which is
the previous behavior. Initially, writeback is enabled for the root
cgroup, and a newly created cgroup will inherit the current setting of its
parent.
Note that this is subtly different from setting memory.swap.max to 0, as
it still allows for pages to be stored in the zswap pool (which itself
consumes swap space in its current form).
This patch should be applied on top of the zswap shrinker series:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20231130194023.4102148-1-nphamcs@gmail.com/
as it also disables the zswap shrinker, a major source of zswap
writebacks.
For the most part, this feature is motivated by internal parties who
have already established their opinions regarding swapping - the
workloads that are highly sensitive to IO, and especially those who are
using servers with really slow disk performance (for instance, massive
but slow HDDs). For these folks, it's impossible to convince them to
even entertain zswap if swapping also comes as a packaged deal.
Writeback disabling is quite a useful feature in these situations - on
a mixed workloads deployment, they can disable writeback for the more
IO-sensitive workloads, and enable writeback for other background
workloads.
For instance, on a server with HDD, I allocate memories and populate
them with random values (so that zswap store will always fail), and
specify memory.high low enough to trigger reclaim. The time it takes
to allocate the memories and just read through it a couple of times
(doing silly things like computing the values' average etc.):
zswap.writeback disabled:
real 0m30.537s
user 0m23.687s
sys 0m6.637s
0 pages swapped in
0 pages swapped out
zswap.writeback enabled:
real 0m45.061s
user 0m24.310s
sys 0m8.892s
712686 pages swapped in
461093 pages swapped out
(the last two lines are from vmstat -s).

Implement the uABI of UFFDIO_MOVE ioctl.
UFFDIO_COPY performs ~20% better than UFFDIO_MOVE when the application
needs pages to be allocated [1]. However, with UFFDIO_MOVE, if pages are
available (in userspace) for recycling, as is usually the case in heap
compaction algorithms, then we can avoid the page allocation and memcpy
(done by UFFDIO_COPY). Also, since the pages are recycled in the
userspace, we avoid the need to release (via madvise) the pages back to
the kernel [2].
We see over 40% reduction (on a Google pixel 6 device) in the compacting
thread's completion time by using UFFDIO_MOVE vs. UFFDIO_COPY. This was
measured using a benchmark that emulates a heap compaction implementation
using userfaultfd (to allow concurrent accesses by application threads).
More details of the usecase are explained in [2]. Furthermore,
UFFDIO_MOVE enables moving swapped-out pages without touching them within
the same vma. Today, it can only be done by mremap, however it forces
splitting the vma.
[1] https://lore.kernel.org/all/1425575884-2574-1-git-send-email-aarcange@redhat.com/
[2] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/CA+EESO4uO84SSnBhArH4HvLNhaUQ5nZKNKXqxRCyjniNVjp0Aw@mail.gmail.com/
Update for the ioctl_userfaultfd(2) manpage:
UFFDIO_MOVE
(Since Linux xxx) Move a continuous memory chunk into the
userfault registered range and optionally wake up the blocked
thread. The source and destination addresses and the number of
bytes to move are specified by the src, dst, and len fields of
the uffdio_move structure pointed to by argp:
struct uffdio_move {
__u64 dst; /* Destination of move */
__u64 src; /* Source of move */
__u64 len; /* Number of bytes to move */
__u64 mode; /* Flags controlling behavior of move */
__s64 move; /* Number of bytes moved, or negated error */
};
The following value may be bitwise ORed in mode to change the
behavior of the UFFDIO_MOVE operation:
UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_DONTWAKE
Do not wake up the thread that waits for page-fault
resolution
UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_ALLOW_SRC_HOLES
Allow holes in the source virtual range that is being moved.
When not specified, the holes will result in ENOENT error.
When specified, the holes will be accounted as successfully
moved memory. This is mostly useful to move hugepage aligned
virtual regions without knowing if there are transparent
hugepages in the regions or not, but preventing the risk of
having to split the hugepage during the operation.
The move field is used by the kernel to return the number of
bytes that was actually moved, or an error (a negated errno-
style value). If the value returned in move doesn't match the
value that was specified in len, the operation fails with the
error EAGAIN. The move field is output-only; it is not read by
the UFFDIO_MOVE operation.
The operation may fail for various reasons. Usually, remapping of
pages that are not exclusive to the given process fail; once KSM
might deduplicate pages or fork() COW-shares pages during fork()
with child processes, they are no longer exclusive. Further, the
kernel might only perform lightweight checks for detecting whether
the pages are exclusive, and return -EBUSY in case that check fails.
To make the operation more likely to succeed, KSM should be
disabled, fork() should be avoided or MADV_DONTFORK should be
configured for the source VMA before fork().
This ioctl(2) operation returns 0 on success. In this case, the
entire area was moved. On error, -1 is returned and errno is
set to indicate the error. Possible errors include:
EAGAIN The number of bytes moved (i.e., the value returned in
the move field) does not equal the value that was
specified in the len field.
EINVAL Either dst or len was not a multiple of the system page
size, or the range specified by src and len or dst and len
was invalid.
EINVAL An invalid bit was specified in the mode field.
ENOENT
The source virtual memory range has unmapped holes and
UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_ALLOW_SRC_HOLES is not set.
EEXIST
The destination virtual memory range is fully or partially
mapped.
EBUSY
The pages in the source virtual memory range are either
pinned or not exclusive to the process. The kernel might
only perform lightweight checks for detecting whether the
pages are exclusive. To make the operation more likely to
succeed, KSM should be disabled, fork() should be avoided
or MADV_DONTFORK should be configured for the source virtual
memory area before fork().
ENOMEM Allocating memory needed for the operation failed.
ESRCH
The target process has exited at the time of a UFFDIO_MOVE
operation.

In preparation for adding support for anonymous multi-size THP, introduce
new sysfs structure that will be used to control the new behaviours. A
new directory is added under transparent_hugepage for each supported THP
size, and contains an `enabled` file, which can be set to "inherit" (to
inherit the global setting), "always", "madvise" or "never". For now, the
kernel still only supports PMD-sized anonymous THP, so only 1 directory is
populated.
The first half of the change converts transhuge_vma_suitable() and
hugepage_vma_check() so that they take a bitfield of orders for which the
user wants to determine support, and the functions filter out all the
orders that can't be supported, given the current sysfs configuration and
the VMA dimensions. The resulting functions are renamed to
thp_vma_suitable_orders() and thp_vma_allowable_orders() respectively.
Convenience functions that take a single, unencoded order and return a
boolean are also defined as thp_vma_suitable_order() and
thp_vma_allowable_order().
The second half of the change implements the new sysfs interface. It has
been done so that each supported THP size has a `struct thpsize`, which
describes the relevant metadata and is itself a kobject. This is pretty
minimal for now, but should make it easy to add new per-thpsize files to
the interface if needed in future (e.g. per-size defrag). Rather than
keep the `enabled` state directly in the struct thpsize, I've elected to
directly encode it into huge_anon_orders_[always|madvise|inherit]
bitfields since this reduces the amount of work required in
thp_vma_allowable_orders() which is called for every page fault.
See Documentation/admin-guide/mm/transhuge.rst, as modified by this
commit, for details of how the new sysfs interface works.

When the kernel command line option "retain_initrd" is set, we do not
free the initrd memory. However, we also don't expose it to anyone for
consumption. That leaves us in a weird situation where the only user of
this feature is ppc64 and arm64 specific kexec tooling.
To make it more generally useful, this patch adds a kobject to the
firmware object that contains the initrd context when "retain_initrd"
is set. That way, we can access the initrd any time after boot from
user space and for example hand it into kexec as --initrd parameter
if we want to reboot the same initrd. Or inspect it directly locally.
With this patch applied, there is a new /sys/firmware/initrd file when
the kernel was booted with an initrd and "retain_initrd" command line
option is set.

Currently, we only shrink the zswap pool when the user-defined limit is
hit. This means that if we set the limit too high, cold data that are
unlikely to be used again will reside in the pool, wasting precious
memory. It is hard to predict how much zswap space will be needed ahead
of time, as this depends on the workload (specifically, on factors such as
memory access patterns and compressibility of the memory pages).
This patch implements a memcg- and NUMA-aware shrinker for zswap, that is
initiated when there is memory pressure. The shrinker does not have any
parameter that must be tuned by the user, and can be opted in or out on a
per-memcg basis.
Furthermore, to make it more robust for many workloads and prevent
overshrinking (i.e evicting warm pages that might be refaulted into
memory), we build in the following heuristics:
* Estimate the number of warm pages residing in zswap, and attempt to
protect this region of the zswap LRU.
* Scale the number of freeable objects by an estimate of the memory
saving factor. The better zswap compresses the data, the fewer pages
we will evict to swap (as we will otherwise incur IO for relatively
small memory saving).
* During reclaim, if the shrinker encounters a page that is also being
brought into memory, the shrinker will cautiously terminate its
shrinking action, as this is a sign that it is touching the warmer
region of the zswap LRU.
As a proof of concept, we ran the following synthetic benchmark: build the
linux kernel in a memory-limited cgroup, and allocate some cold data in
tmpfs to see if the shrinker could write them out and improved the overall
performance. Depending on the amount of cold data generated, we observe
from 14% to 35% reduction in kernel CPU time used in the kernel builds.

Although the RCU CPU stall notifiers can be useful for dumping state when
tracking down delicate forward-progress bugs where NUMA effects cause
cache lines to be delivered to a given CPU regularly, but always in a
state that prevents that CPU from making forward progress. These bugs can
be detected by the RCU CPU stall-warning mechanism, but in some cases,
the stall-warnings printk()s disrupt the forward-progress bug before
any useful state can be obtained.
Unfortunately, the notifier mechanism added by commit 5b404fdaba ("rcu:
Add RCU CPU stall notifier") can make matters worse if used at all
carelessly. For example, if the stall warning was caused by a lock not
being released, then any attempt to acquire that lock in the notifier
will hang. This will prevent not only the notifier from producing any
useful output, but it will also prevent the stall-warning message from
ever appearing.
This commit therefore hides this new RCU CPU stall notifier
mechanism under a new RCU_CPU_STALL_NOTIFIER Kconfig option that
depends on both DEBUG_KERNEL and RCU_EXPERT. In addition, the
rcupdate.rcu_cpu_stall_notifiers=1 kernel boot parameter must also
be specified. The RCU_CPU_STALL_NOTIFIER Kconfig option's help text
contains a warning and explains the dangers of careless use, recommending
lockless notifier code. In addition, a WARN() is triggered each time
that an attempt is made to register a stall-warning notifier in kernels
built with CONFIG_RCU_CPU_STALL_NOTIFIER=y.
This combination of measures will keep use of this mechanism confined to
debug kernels and away from routine deployments.

ZRAM_MEMORY_TRACKING enables two features:

The latter one is the reason why memory-tracking depends on DEBUG_FS,
while the former one is used far beyond debugging these days. Namely
ac-time is used for fine grained writeback of idle entries (pages).
Move ac-time tracking under its own config option so that it can be
enabled (along with writeback) on systems without DEBUG_FS.

The PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl returns information regarding page table entries.
It is more efficient compared to reading pagemap files. CRIU can start to

memory changes.
We are aware of a new method for tracking memory changes implemented in
the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl. For CRIU, the primary advantage of this method is
its usability by unprivileged users. However, it is not feasible to
transparently replace the soft-dirty tracker with the new one. The main
problem here is userfault descriptors that have to be preserved between
pre-dump iterations. It means criu continues supporting the soft-dirty
method to avoid breakage for current users. The new method will be
implemented as a separate feature.

This patch introduces a new USB quirk,
USB_QUIRK_SHORT_SET_ADDRESS_REQ_TIMEOUT, which modifies the timeout value
for the SET_ADDRESS request. The standard timeout for USB request/command
is 5000 ms, as recommended in the USB 3.2 specification (section 9.2.6.1).
However, certain scenarios, such as connecting devices through an APTIV
hub, can lead to timeout errors when the device enumerates as full speed
initially and later switches to high speed during chirp negotiation.
In such cases, USB analyzer logs reveal that the bus suspends for
5 seconds due to incorrect chirp parsing and resumes only after two
consecutive timeout errors trigger a hub driver reset.

This 5-second delay in device enumeration is undesirable, particularly
in automotive applications where quick enumeration is crucial
(ideally within 3 seconds).
The newly introduced quirks provide the flexibility to align with a
3-second time limit, as required in specific contexts like automotive
applications.
By reducing the SET_ADDRESS request timeout to 500 ms, the
system can respond more swiftly to errors, initiate rapid recovery, and
ensure efficient device enumeration. This change is vital for scenarios
where rapid smartphone enumeration and screen projection are essential.
To use the quirk, please write "vendor_id:product_id:p" to

To make CPUs in isolated cpuset partition closer in isolation to
the boot time isolated CPUs specified in the "isolcpus" boot command
line option, we need to take those CPUs out of the workqueue unbound
cpumask so that work functions from the unbound workqueues won't run
on those CPUs. Otherwise, they will interfere the user tasks running
on those isolated CPUs.
With the introduction of the workqueue_unbound_exclude_cpumask() helper
function in an earlier commit, those isolated CPUs can now be taken
out from the workqueue unbound cpumask.
This patch also updates cgroup-v2.rst to mention that isolated
CPUs will be excluded from unbound workqueue cpumask as well as

Gleixner:
- Restructure the code needed for it and add a temporary initrd mapping
on 32-bit so that the loader can access the microcode blobs. This in
itself is a preparation for the next major improvement:
- Do not load microcode on 32-bit before paging has been enabled.
Handling this has caused an endless stream of headaches, issues, ugly
code and unnecessary hacks in the past. And there really wasn't any
sensible reason to do that in the first place. So switch the 32-bit
loading to happen after paging has been enabled and turn the loader
code "real purrty" again
- Drop mixed microcode steppings loading on Intel - there, a single patch
loaded on the whole system is sufficient
- Rework late loading to track which CPUs have updated microcode
successfully and which haven't, act accordingly
- Move late microcode loading on Intel in NMI context in order to
guarantee concurrent loading on all threads
- Make the late loading CPU-hotplug-safe and have the offlined threads
be woken up for the purpose of the update
- Add support for a minimum revision which determines whether late
microcode loading is safe on a machine and the microcode does not
change software visible features which the machine cannot use anyway
since feature detection has happened already. Roughly, the minimum
revision is the smallest revision number which must be loaded
currently on the system so that late updates can be allowed
- Other nice leanups, fixess, etc all over the place

Pull sh updates from John Paul Adrian Glaubitz:
"While the previously announced patch series for converting arch/sh to
device trees is not yet ready for inclusion to mainline and therefore
didn't make it for this pull request, there are still a small number
changes for v6.7 which include one platform (board plus CPU and driver
code) removal plus two fixes.
The removal sent in by Arnd Bergmann concerns the microdev board which
was an early SuperH prototype board that was never used in production.
With the board removed, we were able to drop the now unused code for
the SH4-202 CPU and well as the driver code for the superhyway bus and
a custom implementation for ioport_map() and ioport_unmap() which will
allow us to simplify ioport handling in the future.
Another patch set by Geert Uytterhoeven revives SuperH BIOS
earlyprintk support which got accidentally disabled in
e76fe57447 ("sh: Remove old early serial console code V2"), the
second patch in the series updates the documentation.
Finally, a patch by Masami Hiramatsu fixes a regression reported by
the kernel test robot which uncovered that arch/sh is not implementing
arch_cmpxchg_local() and therefore needs use __generic_cmpxchg_local()
instead"

Core & protocols
----------------
- Support usec resolution of TCP timestamps, enabled selectively by
a route attribute.
- Defer regular TCP ACK while processing socket backlog, try to send
a cumulative ACK at the end. Increase single TCP flow performance
on a 200Gbit NIC by 20% (100Gbit -> 120Gbit).
- The Fair Queuing (FQ) packet scheduler:
- add built-in 3 band prio / WRR scheduling
- support bypass if the qdisc is mostly idle (5% speed up for TCP RR)
- improve inactive flow reporting
- optimize the layout of structures for better cache locality
- Support TCP Authentication Option (RFC 5925, TCP-AO), a more modern
replacement for the old MD5 option.
- Add more retransmission timeout (RTO) related statistics to TCP_INFO.
- Support sending fragmented skbs over vsock sockets.
- Make sure we send SIGPIPE for vsock sockets if socket was shutdown().
- Add sysctl for ignoring lower limit on lifetime in Router
Advertisement PIO, based on an in-progress IETF draft.
- Add sysctl to control activation of TCP ping-pong mode.
- Add sysctl to make connection timeout in MPTCP configurable.
- Support rcvlowat and notsent_lowat on MPTCP sockets, to help apps
limit the number of wakeups.
- Support netlink GET for MDB (multicast forwarding), allowing user
space to request a single MDB entry instead of dumping the entire
table.
- Support selective FDB flushing in the VXLAN tunnel driver.
- Allow limiting learned FDB entries in bridges, prevent OOM attacks.
- Allow controlling via configfs netconsole targets which were created
via the kernel cmdline at boot, rather than via configfs at runtime.
- Support multiple PTP timestamp event queue readers with different
filters.
- MCTP over I3C.
BPF
---
- Add new veth-like netdevice where BPF program defines the logic
of the xmit routine. It can operate in L3 and L2 mode.
- Support exceptions - allow asserting conditions which should
never be true but are hard for the verifier to infer.
With some extra flexibility around handling of the exit / failure.
https://lwn.net/Articles/938435/
- Add support for local per-cpu kptr, allow allocating and storing
per-cpu objects in maps. Access to those objects operates on
the value for the current CPU. This allows to deprecate local
one-off implementations of per-CPU storage like
BPF_MAP_TYPE_PERCPU_CGROUP_STORAGE maps.
- Extend cgroup BPF sockaddr hooks for UNIX sockets. The use case is
for systemd to re-implement the LogNamespace feature which allows
running multiple instances of systemd-journald to process the logs
of different services.
- Enable open-coded task_vma iteration, after maple tree conversion
made it hard to directly walk VMAs in tracing programs.
- Add open-coded task, css_task and css iterator support.
One of the use cases is customizable OOM victim selection via BPF.
- Allow source address selection with bpf_*_fib_lookup().
- Add ability to pin BPF timer to the current CPU.
- Prevent creation of infinite loops by combining tail calls and
fentry/fexit programs.
- Add missed stats for kprobes to retrieve the number of missed kprobe
executions and subsequent executions of BPF programs.
- Inherit system settings for CPU security mitigations.
- Add BPF v4 CPU instruction support for arm32 and s390x.
Changes to common code
----------------------
- overflow: add DEFINE_FLEX() for on-stack definition of structs
with flexible array members.
- Process doc update with more guidance for reviewers.
Driver API
----------
- Simplify locking in WiFi (cfg80211 and mac80211 layers), use wiphy
mutex in most places and remove a lot of smaller locks.
- Create a common DPLL configuration API. Allow configuring
and querying state of PLL circuits used for clock syntonization,
in network time distribution.
- Unify fragmented and full page allocation APIs in page pool code.
Let drivers be ignorant of PAGE_SIZE.
- Rework PHY state machine to avoid races with calls to phy_stop().
- Notify DSA drivers of MAC address changes on user ports, improve
correctness of offloads which depend on matching port MAC addresses.
- Allow antenna control on injected WiFi frames.
- Reduce the number of variants of napi_schedule().
- Simplify error handling when composing devlink health messages.
Misc
----
- A lot of KCSAN data race "fixes", from Eric.
- A lot of __counted_by() annotations, from Kees.
- A lot of strncpy -> strscpy and printf format fixes.
- Replace master/slave terminology with conduit/user in DSA drivers.
- Handful of KUnit tests for netdev and WiFi core.

This pull request contains the following branches:
rcu/torture: RCU torture, locktorture and generic torture infrastructure
updates that include various fixes, cleanups and consolidations.
Among the user visible things, ftrace dumps can now be found into
their own file, and module parameters get better documented and
reported on dumps.
rcu/fixes: Generic and misc fixes all over the place. Some highlights:
* Hotplug handling has seen some light cleanups and comments.
* An RCU barrier can now be triggered through sysfs to serialize
memory stress testing and avoid OOM.
* Object information is now dumped in case of invalid callback
invocation.
* Also various SRCU issues, too hard to trigger to deserve urgent
pull requests, have been fixed.
rcu/docs: RCU documentation updates
rcu/refscale: RCU reference scalability test minor fixes and doc
improvements.
rcu/tasks: RCU tasks minor fixes
rcu/stall: Stall detection updates. Introduce RCU CPU Stall notifiers
that allows a subsystem to provide informations to help debugging.
Also cure some false positive stalls.

Applying microcode late can be fatal for the running kernel when the
update changes functionality which is in use already in a non-compatible
way, e.g. by removing a CPUID bit.
There is no way for admins which do not have access to the vendors deep
technical support to decide whether late loading of such a microcode is
safe or not.
Intel has added a new field to the microcode header which tells the
minimal microcode revision which is required to be active in the CPU in
order to be safe.
Provide infrastructure for handling this in the core code and a command
line switch which allows to enforce it.
If the update is considered safe the kernel is not tainted and the annoying
warning message not emitted. If it's enforced and the currently loaded
microcode revision is not safe for late loading then the load is aborted.

The SRSO default safe-ret mitigation is reported as "mitigated" even if
microcode hasn't been updated. That's wrong because userspace may still
be vulnerable to SRSO attacks due to IBPB not flushing branch type
predictions.
Report the safe-ret + !microcode case as vulnerable.
Also report the microcode-only case as vulnerable as it leaves the
kernel open to attacks.

The documentation says DAMOS tried regions update feature of DAMON sysfs
interface is doing the update for one aggregation interval after the
request is made. Since the introduction of the per-scheme apply interval,
that behavior makes no much sense. Hence the implementation has changed
to update the regions for each scheme for only its apply interval.
Further update the document to reflect the real behavior.

Currently, hugetlb memory usage is not acounted for in the memory
controller, which could lead to memory overprotection for cgroups with
hugetlb-backed memory. This has been observed in our production system.
For instance, here is one of our usecases: suppose there are two 32G
containers. The machine is booted with hugetlb_cma=6G, and each container
may or may not use up to 3 gigantic page, depending on the workload within
it. The rest is anon, cache, slab, etc. We can set the hugetlb cgroup
limit of each cgroup to 3G to enforce hugetlb fairness. But it is very
difficult to configure memory.max to keep overall consumption, including
anon, cache, slab etc. fair.
What we have had to resort to is to constantly poll hugetlb usage and
readjust memory.max. Similar procedure is done to other memory limits
(memory.low for e.g). However, this is rather cumbersome and buggy.
Furthermore, when there is a delay in memory limits correction, (for e.g
when hugetlb usage changes within consecutive runs of the userspace
agent), the system could be in an over/underprotected state.
This patch rectifies this issue by charging the memcg when the hugetlb
folio is utilized, and uncharging when the folio is freed (analogous to
the hugetlb controller). Note that we do not charge when the folio is
allocated to the hugetlb pool, because at this point it is not owned by
any memcg.
Some caveats to consider:
* This feature is only available on cgroup v2.
* There is no hugetlb pool management involved in the memory
controller. As stated above, hugetlb folios are only charged towards
the memory controller when it is used. Host overcommit management
has to consider it when configuring hard limits.
* Failure to charge towards the memcg results in SIGBUS. This could
happen even if the hugetlb pool still has pages (but the cgroup
limit is hit and reclaim attempt fails).
* When this feature is enabled, hugetlb pages contribute to memory
reclaim protection. low, min limits tuning must take into account
hugetlb memory.
* Hugetlb pages utilized while this option is not selected will not
be tracked by the memory controller (even if cgroup v2 is remounted
later on).

Patch series "Implement IOCTL to get and optionally clear info about
PTEs", v33.
*Motivation*
The real motivation for adding PAGEMAP_SCAN IOCTL is to emulate Windows
GetWriteWatch() and ResetWriteWatch() syscalls [1]. The GetWriteWatch()
retrieves the addresses of the pages that are written to in a region of
virtual memory.
This syscall is used in Windows applications and games etc. This syscall
is being emulated in pretty slow manner in userspace. Our purpose is to
enhance the kernel such that we translate it efficiently in a better way.
Currently some out of tree hack patches are being used to efficiently
emulate it in some kernels. We intend to replace those with these
patches. So the whole gaming on Linux can effectively get benefit from
this. It means there would be tons of users of this code.
CRIU use case [2] was mentioned by Andrei and Danylo:
> Use cases for migrating sparse VMAs are binaries sanitized with ASAN,
> MSAN or TSAN [3]. All of these sanitizers produce sparse mappings of
> shadow memory [4]. Being able to migrate such binaries allows to highly
> reduce the amount of work needed to identify and fix post-migration
> crashes, which happen constantly.
Andrei defines the following uses of this code:
* it is more granular and allows us to track changed pages more
effectively. The current interface can clear dirty bits for the entire
process only. In addition, reading info about pages is a separate
operation. It means we must freeze the process to read information
about all its pages, reset dirty bits, only then we can start dumping
pages. The information about pages becomes more and more outdated,
while we are processing pages. The new interface solves both these
downsides. First, it allows us to read pte bits and clear the
soft-dirty bit atomically. It means that CRIU will not need to freeze
processes to pre-dump their memory. Second, it clears soft-dirty bits
for a specified region of memory. It means CRIU will have actual info
about pages to the moment of dumping them.
* The new interface has to be much faster because basic page filtering
is happening in the kernel. With the old interface, we have to read
pagemap for each page.
*Implementation Evolution (Short Summary)*
From the definition of GetWriteWatch(), we feel like kernel's soft-dirty
feature can be used under the hood with some additions like:
* reset soft-dirty flag for only a specific region of memory instead of
clearing the flag for the entire process
* get and clear soft-dirty flag for a specific region atomically
So we decided to use ioctl on pagemap file to read or/and reset soft-dirty
flag. But using soft-dirty flag, sometimes we get extra pages which weren't
even written. They had become soft-dirty because of VMA merging and
VM_SOFTDIRTY flag. This breaks the definition of GetWriteWatch(). We were
able to by-pass this short coming by ignoring VM_SOFTDIRTY until David
reported that mprotect etc messes up the soft-dirty flag while ignoring
VM_SOFTDIRTY [5]. This wasn't happening until [6] got introduced. We
discussed if we can revert these patches. But we could not reach to any
conclusion. So at this point, I made couple of tries to solve this whole
VM_SOFTDIRTY issue by correcting the soft-dirty implementation:
* [7] Correct the bug fixed wrongly back in 2014. It had potential to cause
regression. We left it behind.
* [8] Keep a list of soft-dirty part of a VMA across splits and merges. I
got the reply don't increase the size of the VMA by 8 bytes.
At this point, we left soft-dirty considering it is too much delicate and
userfaultfd [9] seemed like the only way forward. From there onward, we
have been basing soft-dirty emulation on userfaultfd wp feature where
kernel resolves the faults itself when WP_ASYNC feature is used. It was
straight forward to add WP_ASYNC feature in userfautlfd. Now we get only
those pages dirty or written-to which are really written in reality. (PS
There is another WP_UNPOPULATED userfautfd feature is required which is
needed to avoid pre-faulting memory before write-protecting [9].)
All the different masks were added on the request of CRIU devs to create
interface more generic and better.

This patch (of 6):
Add a new userfaultfd-wp feature UFFD_FEATURE_WP_ASYNC, that allows
userfaultfd wr-protect faults to be resolved by the kernel directly.
It can be used like a high accuracy version of soft-dirty, without vma
modifications during tracking, and also with ranged support by default
rather than for a whole mm when reset the protections due to existence of
ioctl(UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT).
Several goals of such a dirty tracking interface:
1. All types of memory should be supported and tracable. This is nature
for soft-dirty but should mention when the context is userfaultfd,
because it used to only support anon/shmem/hugetlb. The problem is for
a dirty tracking purpose these three types may not be enough, and it's
legal to track anything e.g. any page cache writes from mmap.
2. Protections can be applied to partial of a memory range, without vma
split/merge fuss. The hope is that the tracking itself should not
affect any vma layout change. It also helps when reset happens because
the reset will not need mmap write lock which can block the tracee.
3. Accuracy needs to be maintained. This means we need pte markers to work
on any type of VMA.
One could question that, the whole concept of async dirty tracking is not
really close to fundamentally what userfaultfd used to be: it's not "a
fault to be serviced by userspace" anymore. However, using userfaultfd-wp
here as a framework is convenient for us in at least:
1. VM_UFFD_WP vma flag, which has a very good name to suite something like
this, so we don't need VM_YET_ANOTHER_SOFT_DIRTY. Just use a new
feature bit to identify from a sync version of uffd-wp registration.
2. PTE markers logic can be leveraged across the whole kernel to maintain
the uffd-wp bit as long as an arch supports, this also applies to this
case where uffd-wp bit will be a hint to dirty information and it will
not go lost easily (e.g. when some page cache ptes got zapped).
3. Reuse ioctl(UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT) interface for either starting or
resetting a range of memory, while there's no counterpart in the old
soft-dirty world, hence if this is wanted in a new design we'll need a
new interface otherwise.
We can somehow understand that commonality because uffd-wp was
fundamentally a similar idea of write-protecting pages just like
soft-dirty.
This implementation allows WP_ASYNC to imply WP_UNPOPULATED, because so
far WP_ASYNC seems to not usable if without WP_UNPOPULATE. This also
gives us chance to modify impl of WP_ASYNC just in case it could be not
depending on WP_UNPOPULATED anymore in the future kernels. It's also fine
to imply that because both features will rely on PTE_MARKER_UFFD_WP config
option, so they'll show up together (or both missing) in an UFFDIO_API
probe.
vma_can_userfault() now allows any VMA if the userfaultfd registration is
only about async uffd-wp. So we can track dirty for all kinds of memory
including generic file systems (like XFS, EXT4 or BTRFS).
One trick worth mention in do_wp_page() is that we need to manually update
vmf->orig_pte here because it can be used later with a pte_same() check -
this path always has FAULT_FLAG_ORIG_PTE_VALID set in the flags.
The major defect of this approach of dirty tracking is we need to populate
the pgtables when tracking starts. Soft-dirty doesn't do it like that.
It's unwanted in the case where the range of memory to track is huge and
unpopulated (e.g., tracking updates on a 10G file with mmap() on top,
without having any page cache installed yet). One way to improve this is
to allow pte markers exist for larger than PTE level for PMD+. That will
not change the interface if to implemented, so we can leave that for
later.

The CSD lock seems to get stuck in 2 "modes". When it gets stuck
temporarily, it usually gets released in a few seconds, and sometimes
up to one or two minutes.
If the CSD lock stays stuck for more than several minutes, it never
seems to get unstuck, and gradually more and more things in the system
end up also getting stuck.
In the latter case, we should just give up, so the system can dump out
a little more information about what went wrong, and, with panic_on_oops
and a kdump kernel loaded, dump a whole bunch more information about what
might have gone wrong. In addition, there is an smp.panic_on_ipistall
kernel boot parameter that by default retains the old behavior, but when
set enables the panic after the CSD lock has been stuck for more than
the specified number of milliseconds, as in 300,000 for five minutes.

The 'sched_energy_aware' sysctl is available for the admin to disable/enable
energy aware scheduling(EAS). EAS is enabled only if few conditions are
met by the platform. They are, asymmetric CPU capacity, no SMT,
schedutil CPUfreq governor, frequency invariant load tracking etc.
A platform may boot without EAS capability, but could gain such
capability at runtime. For example, changing/registering the cpufreq
governor to schedutil.
At present, though platform doesn't support EAS, this sysctl returns 1
and it ends up calling build_perf_domains on write to 1 and
NOP when writing to 0. That is confusing and un-necessary.
Desired behavior would be to have this sysctl to enable/disable the EAS
on supported platform. On non-supported platform write to the sysctl
would return not supported error and read of the sysctl would return
empty. So sched_energy_aware returns empty - EAS is not possible at this moment
This will include EAS capable platforms which have at least one EAS
condition false during startup, e.g. not using the schedutil cpufreq governor
sched_energy_aware returns 0 - EAS is supported but disabled by admin.
sched_energy_aware returns 1 - EAS is supported and enabled.
User can find out the reason why EAS is not possible by checking
info messages. sched_is_eas_possible returns true if the platform
can do EAS at this moment.

Commit bf5835bcdb ("intel_idle: Disable IBRS during long idle")
disables IBRS when the cstate is 6 or lower. However, there are
some use cases where a customer may want to use max_cstate=1 to
lower latency. Such use cases will suffer from the performance
degradation caused by the enabling of IBRS in the sibling idle thread.
Add a "ibrs_off" module parameter to force disable IBRS and the
CPUIDLE_FLAG_IRQ_ENABLE flag if set.
In the case of a Skylake server with max_cstate=1, this new ibrs_off
option will likely increase the IRQ response latency as IRQ will now
be disabled.
When running SPECjbb2015 with cstates set to C1 on a Skylake system.
First test when the kernel is booted with: "intel_idle.ibrs_off":
max-jOPS = 117828, critical-jOPS = 66047
Then retest when the kernel is booted without the "intel_idle.ibrs_off"
added:
max-jOPS = 116408, critical-jOPS = 58958
That means booting with "intel_idle.ibrs_off" improves performance by:
max-jOPS: +1.2%, which could be considered noise range.
critical-jOPS: +12%, which is definitely a solid improvement.
The admin-guide/pm/intel_idle.rst file is updated to add a description
about the new "ibrs_off" module parameter.

We have a need of using favordynmods with cgroup v1, which doesn't support
changing mount flags during remount. Enabling CONFIG_CGROUP_FAVOR_DYNMODS at
build-time is not an option because we want to be able to selectively
enable it for certain systems.
This commit addresses this by introducing the cgroup_favordynmods=
command-line option. This option works for both cgroup v1 and v2 and also
allows for disabling favorynmods when the kernel built with
CONFIG_CGROUP_FAVOR_DYNMODS=y.
Also, note that when cgroup_favordynmods=true favordynmods is never
disabled in cgroup_destroy_root().

At present, we support per-memcg reclaim strategy, however we do not know
the number of transparent huge pages being reclaimed, as we know the
transparent huge pages need to be splited before reclaim them, and they
will bring some performance bottleneck effect. for example, when two
memcg (A & B) are doing reclaim for anonymous pages at same time, and 'A'
memcg is reclaiming a large number of transparent huge pages, we can
better analyze that the performance bottleneck will be caused by 'A'
memcg. therefore, in order to better analyze such problems, there add THP
swap out info for per-memcg.

While s390 already has a standard IOMMU driver and previous changes have
added I/O TLB flushing operations this driver is currently only used for
user-space PCI access such as vfio-pci. For the DMA API s390 instead
utilizes its own implementation in arch/s390/pci/pci_dma.c which drives
the same hardware and shares some code but requires a complex and
fragile hand over between DMA API and IOMMU API use of a device and
despite code sharing still leads to significant duplication and
maintenance effort. Let's utilize the common code DMAP API
implementation from drivers/iommu/dma-iommu.c instead allowing us to
get rid of arch/s390/pci/pci_dma.c.

This reverts commits 86327e8eb9 ("memcg: drop kmem.limit_in_bytes") and
partially reverts 58056f7750 ("memcg, kmem: further deprecate
kmem.limit_in_bytes") which have incrementally removed support for the
kernel memory accounting hard limit. Unfortunately it has turned out that
there is still userspace depending on the existence of
memory.kmem.limit_in_bytes [1]. The underlying functionality is not
really required but the non-existent file just confuses the userspace
which fails in the result. The patch to fix this on the userspace side
has been submitted but it is hard to predict how it will propagate through
the maze of 3rd party consumers of the software.
Now, reverting alone 86327e8eb9 is not an option because there is
another set of userspace which cannot cope with ENOTSUPP returned when
writing to the file. Therefore we have to go and revisit 58056f7750 as
well. There are two ways to go ahead. Either we give up on the
deprecation and fully revert 58056f7750 as well or we can keep
kmem.limit_in_bytes but make the write a noop and warn about the fact.
This should work for both known breaking workloads which depend on the
existence but do not depend on the hard limit enforcement.
Note to backporters to stable trees. a8c49af3be ("memcg: add per-memcg
total kernel memory stat") introduced in 4.18 has added memcg_account_kmem
so the accounting is not done by obj_cgroup_charge_pages directly for v1
anymore. Prior kernels need to add it explicitly (thanks to Johannes for
pointing this out).

When running locktorture on large systems, there will normally be
enough RCU activity to ensure that there is a grace period in flight
at all times. However, on smaller systems, RCU might well be idle the
majority of the time. This situation can be inconvenient in cases where
the RCU CPU stall warning is part of the debugging process.
This commit therefore adds an call_rcu_chains module parameter to
locktorture, allowing the user to specify the desired number of
self-propagating call_rcu() chains. For good measure, immediately
before invoking call_rcu(), the self-propagating RCU callback invokes
start_poll_synchronize_rcu() to force the immediate start of a grace
period, with the call_rcu() forcing another to start shortly thereafter.
Booting with locktorture.call_rcu_chains=2 increases the probability
of a stuck locking primitive resulting in an RCU CPU stall warning from
about 25% to nearly 100%.

Distributions would like to reduce their attack surface as much as
possible but at the same time they'd want to retain flexibility to cater
to a variety of legacy software. This stems from the conjecture that
compat layer is likely rarely tested and could have latent security
bugs. Ideally distributions will set their default policy and also
give users the ability to override it as appropriate.
To enable this use case, introduce CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION_DEFAULT_DISABLED
compile time option, which controls whether 32bit processes/syscalls
should be allowed or not. This option is aimed mainly at distributions
to set their preferred default behavior in their kernels.
To allow users to override the distro's policy, introduce the 'ia32_emulation'
parameter which allows overriding CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION_DEFAULT_DISABLED
state at boot time.

When running a series of stress tests all making heavy use of RCU,
it is all too possible to OOM the system when the prior test's RCU
callbacks don't get invoked until after the subsequent test starts.
One way of handling this is just a timed wait, but this fails when a
given CPU has so many callbacks queued that they take longer to invoke
than allowed for by that timed wait.
This commit therefore adds an rcutree.do_rcu_barrier module parameter that
is accessible from sysfs. Writing one of the many synonyms for boolean
"true" will cause an rcu_barrier() to be invoked, but will guarantee that
no more than one rcu_barrier() will be invoked per sixteenth of a second
via this mechanism. The flip side is that a given request might wait a
second or three longer than absolutely necessary, but only when there are
multiple uses of rcutree.do_rcu_barrier within a one-second time interval.
This commit unnecessarily serializes the rcu_barrier() machinery, given
that serialization is already provided by procfs. This has the advantage
of allowing throttled rcu_barrier() from other sources within the kernel.

perf tools maintainership:
- Add git information for perf-tools and perf-tools-next trees/branches to the
MAINTAINERS file. That is where development now takes place and myself and
Namhyung Kim have write access, more people to come as we emulate other
maintainer groups.
perf record:
- Record kernel data maps when 'perf record --data' is used, so that global variables can
be resolved and used in tools that do data profiling.
perf trace:
- Remove the old, experimental support for BPF events in which a .c file was passed as
an event: "perf trace -e hello.c" to then get compiled and loaded.
The only known usage for that, that shipped with the kernel as an example for such events,
augmented the raw_syscalls tracepoints and was converted to a libbpf skeleton, reusing all
the user space components and the BPF code connected to the syscalls.
In the end just the way to glue the BPF part and the user space type beautifiers changed,
now being performed by libbpf skeletons.
The next step is to use BTF to do pretty printing of all syscall types, as discussed with
Alan Maguire and others.
Now, on a perf built with BUILD_BPF_SKEL=1 we get most if not all path/filenames/strings,
some of the networking data structures, perf_event_attr, etc, i.e. systemwide tracing of
nanosleep calls and perf_event_open syscalls while 'perf stat' runs 'sleep' for 5 seconds:

perf annotate:
- Building with binutils' libopcode now is opt-in (BUILD_NONDISTRO=1) for
licensing reasons, and we missed a build test on tools/perf/tests makefile.
Since we now default to NDEBUG=1, we ended up segfaulting when building with
BUILD_NONDISTRO=1 because a needed initialization routine was being "error
checked" via an assert.
Fix it by explicitly checking the result and aborting instead if it fails.
We better back propagate the error, but at least 'perf annotate' on samples
collected for a BPF program is back working when perf is built with
BUILD_NONDISTRO=1.
perf report/top:
- Add back TUI hierarchy mode header, that is seen when using 'perf report/top --hierarchy'.
- Fix the number of entries for 'e' key in the TUI that was preventing navigation of
lines when expanding an entry.
perf report/script:
- Support cross platform register handling, allowing a perf.data file collected
on one architecture to have registers sampled correctly displayed when
analysis tools such as 'perf report' and 'perf script' are used on a different
architecture.
- Fix handling of event attributes in pipe mode, i.e. when one uses:
perf record -o - | perf report -i -
When no perf.data files are used.
- Handle files generated via pipe mode with a version of perf and then read
also via pipe mode with a different version of perf, where the event attr
record may have changed, use the record size field to properly support this
version mismatch.
perf probe:
- Accessing global variables from uprobes isn't supported, make the error
message state that instead of stating that some minimal kernel version is
needed to have that feature. This seems just a tool limitation, the kernel
probably has all that is needed.
perf tests:
- Fix a reference count related leak in the dlfilter v0 API where the result
of a thread__find_symbol_fb() is not matched with an addr_location__exit()
to drop the reference counts of the resolved components (machine, thread, map,
symbol, etc). Add a dlfilter test to make sure that doesn't regresses.
- Lots of fixes for the 'perf test' written in shell script related to problems
found with the shellcheck utility.
- Fixes for 'perf test' shell scripts testing features enabled when perf is
built with BUILD_BPF_SKEL=1, such as 'perf stat' bpf counters.
- Add perf record sample filtering test, things like the following example, that gets
implemented as a BPF filter attached to the event:
# perf record -e task-clock -c 10000 --filter 'ip < 0xffffffff00000000'
- Improve the way the task_analyzer test checks if libtraceevent is linked,
using 'perf version --build-options' instead of the more expensinve
'perf record -e "sched:sched_switch"'.
- Add support for riscv in the mmap-basic test. (This went as well via the RiscV tree, same contents).
libperf:
- Implement riscv mmap support (This went as well via the RiscV tree, same contents).
perf script:
- New tool that converts perf.data files to the firefox profiler format so that one can use
the visualizer at https://profiler.firefox.com/. Done by Anup Sharma as part of this year's
Google Summer of Code.
One can generate the output and upload it to the web interface but Anup also automated
everything:
perf script gecko -F 99 -a sleep 60
- Support syscall name parsing on arm64.
- Print "cgroup" field on the same line as "comm".
perf bench:
- Add new 'uprobe' benchmark to measure the overhead of uprobes with/without
BPF programs attached to it.
- breakpoints are not available on power9, skip that test.
perf stat:
- Add #num_cpus_online literal to be used in 'perf stat' metrics, and add this extra
'perf test' check that exemplifies its purpose:
TEST_ASSERT_VAL("#num_cpus_online",
expr__parse(&num_cpus_online, ctx, "#num_cpus_online") == 0);
TEST_ASSERT_VAL("#num_cpus", expr__parse(&num_cpus, ctx, "#num_cpus") == 0);
TEST_ASSERT_VAL("#num_cpus >= #num_cpus_online", num_cpus >= num_cpus_online);
Miscellaneous:
- Improve tool startup time by lazily reading PMU, JSON, sysfs data.
- Improve error reporting in the parsing of events, passing YYLTYPE to error routines,
so that the output can show were the parsing error was found.
- Add 'perf test' entries to check the parsing of events improvements.
- Fix various leak for things detected by -fsanitize=address, mostly things that would
be freed at tool exit, including:
- Free evsel->filter on the destructor.
- Allow tools to register a thread->priv destructor and use it in 'perf trace'.
- Free evsel->priv in 'perf trace'.
- Free string returned by synthesize_perf_probe_point() when the caller fails
to do all it needs.
- Adjust various compiler options to not consider errors some warnings when
building with broken headers found in things like python, flex, bison, as we
otherwise build with -Werror. Some for gcc, some for clang, some for some
specific version of those, some for some specific version of flex or bison, or
some specific combination of these components, bah.
- Allow customization of clang options for BPF target, this helps building on
gentoo where there are other oddities where BPF targets gets passed some compiler
options intended for the native build, so building with WERROR=0 helps while
these oddities are fixed.
- Dont pass ERR_PTR() values to perf_session__delete() in 'perf top' and 'perf lock',
fixing some segfaults when handling some odd failures.
- Add LTO build option.
- Fix format of unordered lists in the perf docs (tools/perf/Documentation).
- Overhaul the bison files, using constructs such as YYNOMEM.
- Remove unused tokens from the bison .y files.
- Add more comments to various structs.
- A few LoongArch enablement patches.
Vendor events (JSON):
- Add JSON metrics for Yitian 710 DDR (aarch64). Things like:
EventName, BriefDescription
visible_window_limit_reached_rd, "At least one entry in read queue reaches the visible window limit.",
visible_window_limit_reached_wr, "At least one entry in write queue reaches the visible window limit.",
op_is_dqsosc_mpc , "A DQS Oscillator MPC command to DRAM.",
op_is_dqsosc_mrr , "A DQS Oscillator MRR command to DRAM.",
op_is_tcr_mrr , "A Temperature Compensated Refresh(TCR) MRR command to DRAM.",
- Add AmpereOne metrics (aarch64).
- Update N2 and V2 metrics (aarch64) and events using Arm telemetry repo.
- Update scale units and descriptions of common topdown metrics on aarch64. Things like:
- "MetricExpr": "stall_slot_frontend / (#slots * cpu_cycles)",
- "BriefDescription": "Frontend bound L1 topdown metric",

Merge tag 'perf-tools-for-v6.6-1-2023-09-05' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/perf/perf-tools
Pull perf tools updates from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
"perf tools maintainership:
- Add git information for perf-tools and perf-tools-next trees and
branches to the MAINTAINERS file. That is where development now
takes place and myself and Namhyung Kim have write access, more
people to come as we emulate other maintainer groups.
perf record:
- Record kernel data maps when 'perf record --data' is used, so that
global variables can be resolved and used in tools that do data
profiling.
perf trace:
- Remove the old, experimental support for BPF events in which a .c
file was passed as an event: "perf trace -e hello.c" to then get
compiled and loaded.
The only known usage for that, that shipped with the kernel as an
example for such events, augmented the raw_syscalls tracepoints and
was converted to a libbpf skeleton, reusing all the user space
components and the BPF code connected to the syscalls.
In the end just the way to glue the BPF part and the user space
type beautifiers changed, now being performed by libbpf skeletons.
The next step is to use BTF to do pretty printing of all syscall
types, as discussed with Alan Maguire and others.
Now, on a perf built with BUILD_BPF_SKEL=1 we get most if not all
path/filenames/strings, some of the networking data structures,
perf_event_attr, etc, i.e. systemwide tracing of nanosleep calls
and perf_event_open syscalls while 'perf stat' runs 'sleep' for 5
seconds:

perf annotate:
- Building with binutils' libopcode now is opt-in (BUILD_NONDISTRO=1)
for licensing reasons, and we missed a build test on
tools/perf/tests makefile.
Since we now default to NDEBUG=1, we ended up segfaulting when
building with BUILD_NONDISTRO=1 because a needed initialization
routine was being "error checked" via an assert.
Fix it by explicitly checking the result and aborting instead if it
fails.
We better back propagate the error, but at least 'perf annotate' on
samples collected for a BPF program is back working when perf is
built with BUILD_NONDISTRO=1.
perf report/top:
- Add back TUI hierarchy mode header, that is seen when using 'perf
report/top --hierarchy'.
- Fix the number of entries for 'e' key in the TUI that was
preventing navigation of lines when expanding an entry.
perf report/script:
- Support cross platform register handling, allowing a perf.data file
collected on one architecture to have registers sampled correctly
displayed when analysis tools such as 'perf report' and 'perf
script' are used on a different architecture.
- Fix handling of event attributes in pipe mode, i.e. when one uses:
perf record -o - | perf report -i -
When no perf.data files are used.
- Handle files generated via pipe mode with a version of perf and
then read also via pipe mode with a different version of perf,
where the event attr record may have changed, use the record size
field to properly support this version mismatch.
perf probe:
- Accessing global variables from uprobes isn't supported, make the
error message state that instead of stating that some minimal
kernel version is needed to have that feature. This seems just a
tool limitation, the kernel probably has all that is needed.
perf tests:
- Fix a reference count related leak in the dlfilter v0 API where the
result of a thread__find_symbol_fb() is not matched with an
addr_location__exit() to drop the reference counts of the resolved
components (machine, thread, map, symbol, etc). Add a dlfilter test
to make sure that doesn't regresses.
- Lots of fixes for the 'perf test' written in shell script related
to problems found with the shellcheck utility.
- Fixes for 'perf test' shell scripts testing features enabled when
perf is built with BUILD_BPF_SKEL=1, such as 'perf stat' bpf
counters.
- Add perf record sample filtering test, things like the following
example, that gets implemented as a BPF filter attached to the
event:
# perf record -e task-clock -c 10000 --filter 'ip < 0xffffffff00000000'
- Improve the way the task_analyzer test checks if libtraceevent is
linked, using 'perf version --build-options' instead of the more
expensinve 'perf record -e "sched:sched_switch"'.
- Add support for riscv in the mmap-basic test. (This went as well
via the RiscV tree, same contents).
libperf:
- Implement riscv mmap support (This went as well via the RiscV tree,
same contents).
perf script:
- New tool that converts perf.data files to the firefox profiler
format so that one can use the visualizer at
https://profiler.firefox.com/. Done by Anup Sharma as part of this
year's Google Summer of Code.
One can generate the output and upload it to the web interface but
Anup also automated everything:
perf script gecko -F 99 -a sleep 60
- Support syscall name parsing on arm64.
- Print "cgroup" field on the same line as "comm".
perf bench:
- Add new 'uprobe' benchmark to measure the overhead of uprobes
with/without BPF programs attached to it.
- breakpoints are not available on power9, skip that test.
perf stat:
- Add #num_cpus_online literal to be used in 'perf stat' metrics, and
add this extra 'perf test' check that exemplifies its purpose:
TEST_ASSERT_VAL("#num_cpus_online",
expr__parse(&num_cpus_online, ctx, "#num_cpus_online") == 0);
TEST_ASSERT_VAL("#num_cpus", expr__parse(&num_cpus, ctx, "#num_cpus") == 0);
TEST_ASSERT_VAL("#num_cpus >= #num_cpus_online", num_cpus >= num_cpus_online);
Miscellaneous:
- Improve tool startup time by lazily reading PMU, JSON, sysfs data.
- Improve error reporting in the parsing of events, passing YYLTYPE
to error routines, so that the output can show were the parsing
error was found.
- Add 'perf test' entries to check the parsing of events
improvements.
- Fix various leak for things detected by -fsanitize=address, mostly
things that would be freed at tool exit, including:
- Free evsel->filter on the destructor.
- Allow tools to register a thread->priv destructor and use it in
'perf trace'.
- Free evsel->priv in 'perf trace'.
- Free string returned by synthesize_perf_probe_point() when the
caller fails to do all it needs.
- Adjust various compiler options to not consider errors some
warnings when building with broken headers found in things like
python, flex, bison, as we otherwise build with -Werror. Some for
gcc, some for clang, some for some specific version of those, some
for some specific version of flex or bison, or some specific
combination of these components, bah.
- Allow customization of clang options for BPF target, this helps
building on gentoo where there are other oddities where BPF targets
gets passed some compiler options intended for the native build, so
building with WERROR=0 helps while these oddities are fixed.
- Dont pass ERR_PTR() values to perf_session__delete() in 'perf top'
and 'perf lock', fixing some segfaults when handling some odd
failures.
- Add LTO build option.
- Fix format of unordered lists in the perf docs
(tools/perf/Documentation)
- Overhaul the bison files, using constructs such as YYNOMEM.
- Remove unused tokens from the bison .y files.
- Add more comments to various structs.
- A few LoongArch enablement patches.
Vendor events (JSON):
- Add JSON metrics for Yitian 710 DDR (aarch64). Things like:
EventName, BriefDescription
visible_window_limit_reached_rd, "At least one entry in read queue reaches the visible window limit.",
visible_window_limit_reached_wr, "At least one entry in write queue reaches the visible window limit.",
op_is_dqsosc_mpc , "A DQS Oscillator MPC command to DRAM.",
op_is_dqsosc_mrr , "A DQS Oscillator MRR command to DRAM.",
op_is_tcr_mrr , "A Temperature Compensated Refresh(TCR) MRR command to DRAM.",
- Add AmpereOne metrics (aarch64).
- Update N2 and V2 metrics (aarch64) and events using Arm telemetry
repo.
- Update scale units and descriptions of common topdown metrics on
aarch64. Things like:
- "MetricExpr": "stall_slot_frontend / (#slots * cpu_cycles)",
- "BriefDescription": "Frontend bound L1 topdown metric",
+ "MetricExpr": "100 * (stall_slot_frontend / (#slots * cpu_cycles))",
+ "BriefDescription": "This metric is the percentage of total slots that were stalled due to resource constraints in the frontend of the processor.",
- Update events for intel: meteorlake to 1.04, sapphirerapids to
1.15, Icelake+ metric constraints.
- Update files for the power10 platform"

Introduce a new sysctl (io_uring_disabled) which can be either 0, 1, or
2. When 0 (the default), all processes are allowed to create io_uring
instances, which is the current behavior. When 1, io_uring creation is
disabled (io_uring_setup() will fail with -EPERM) for unprivileged
processes not in the kernel.io_uring_group group. When 2, calls to
io_uring_setup() fail with -EPERM regardless of privilege.

* 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

Pull media updates from Mauro Carvalho Chehab:
- new i2c drivers: ds90ub913, ds90ub953, ds90ub960, dw9719, ds90ub913
- new Intel IVSC MEI drivers
- some Mediatek platform drivers were moved to a common location
- Intel atomisp2 driver is now working with the main ov2680 driver. Due
to that, the atomisp2 ov2680 staging one was removed
- the bttv driver was finally converted to videobuf2 framework. This
was the last one upstream using videobuf version 1 core. We'll likely
remove the old videobuf framework on 6.7
- lots of improvements at atomisp driver: it now works with normal I2C
sensors. Several compile-mode dependecies to select between ISP2400
and ISP2401 are now solved in runtime
- a new ipu-bridge logic was added to work with IVSC MEI drivers
- venus driver gained better support for new VPU versions
- the v4l core async framework has gained lots of improvements and
cleanups
- lots of other cleanups, improvements and driver fixes

Lots of cleanups in here this cycle, and some driver updates. Short
summary is:

sane with regards to modern kernel coding style and types
- cpm_uart driver updates
- n_gsm updates and fixes
- meson driver updates
- sc16is7xx driver updates
- 8250 driver updates for different hardware types
- qcom-geni driver fixes
- tegra serial driver change
- stm32 driver updates
- synclink_gt driver cleanups
- tty structure size reduction
All of these have been in linux-next this week with no reported issues.
The last bit of cleanups from Jiri and the tty structure size reduction
came in last week, a bit late but as they were just style changes and
size reductions, I figured they should get into this merge cycle so that
others can work on top of them with no merge conflicts.

Chen Jiahao <chenjiahao16@huawei.com> says:
On riscv, the current crash kernel allocation logic is trying to
allocate within 32bit addressible memory region by default, if
failed, try to allocate without 4G restriction.
In need of saving DMA zone memory while allocating a relatively large
crash kernel region, allocating the reserved memory top down in
high memory, without overlapping the DMA zone, is a mature solution.
Hence this patchset introduces the parameter option crashkernel=X,[high,low].
One can reserve the crash kernel from high memory above DMA zone range
by explicitly passing "crashkernel=X,high"; or reserve a memory range
below 4G with "crashkernel=X,low". Besides, there are few rules need
to take notice:
1. "crashkernel=X,[high,low]" will be ignored if "crashkernel=size"
is specified.
2. "crashkernel=X,low" is valid only when "crashkernel=X,high" is passed
and there is enough memory to be allocated under 4G.
3. When allocating crashkernel above 4G and no "crashkernel=X,low" is
specified, a 128M low memory will be allocated automatically for
swiotlb bounce buffer.
See Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt for more information.
To verify loading the crashkernel, adapted kexec-tools is attached below:
https://github.com/chenjh005/kexec-tools/tree/build-test-riscv-v2
Following test cases have been performed as expected:
1) crashkernel=256M //low=256M
2) crashkernel=1G //low=1G
3) crashkernel=4G //high=4G, low=128M(default)
4) crashkernel=4G crashkernel=256M,high //high=4G, low=128M(default), high is ignored
5) crashkernel=4G crashkernel=256M,low //high=4G, low=128M(default), low is ignored
6) crashkernel=4G,high //high=4G, low=128M(default)
7) crashkernel=256M,low //low=0M, invalid
8) crashkernel=4G,high crashkernel=256M,low //high=4G, low=256M
9) crashkernel=4G,high crashkernel=4G,low //high=0M, low=0M, invalid
10) crashkernel=512M@0xd0000000 //low=512M

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the usual miscellaneous features, cleanups, and fixes
for vfs and individual filesystems.
Features:
- Block mode changes on symlinks and rectify our broken semantics
- Report file modifications via fsnotify() for splice
- Allow specifying an explicit timeout for the "rootwait" kernel
command line option. This allows to timeout and reboot instead of
always waiting indefinitely for the root device to show up
- Use synchronous fput for the close system call
Cleanups:
- Get rid of open-coded lockdep workarounds for async io submitters
and replace it all with a single consolidated helper
- Simplify epoll allocation helper
- Convert simple_write_begin and simple_write_end to use a folio
- Convert page_cache_pipe_buf_confirm() to use a folio
- Simplify __range_close to avoid pointless locking
- Disable per-cpu buffer head cache for isolated cpus
- Port ecryptfs to kmap_local_page() api
- Remove redundant initialization of pointer buf in pipe code
- Unexport the d_genocide() function which is only used within core
vfs
- Replace printk(KERN_ERR) and WARN_ON() with WARN()
Fixes:
- Fix various kernel-doc issues
- Fix refcount underflow for eventfds when used as EFD_SEMAPHORE
- Fix a mainly theoretical issue in devpts
- Check the return value of __getblk() in reiserfs
- Fix a racy assert in i_readcount_dec
- Fix integer conversion issues in various functions
- Fix LSM security context handling during automounts that prevented
NFS superblock sharing"

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).

Alexandre Ghiti <alexghiti@rivosinc.com> says:
riscv used to allow direct access to cycle/time/instret counters,
bypassing the perf framework, this patchset intends to allow the user to
mmap any counter when accessed through perf.
**Important**: The default mode is now user access through perf only, not
the legacy so some applications will break. However, we introduce a sysctl
perf_user_access like arm64 does, which will allow to switch to the legacy
mode described above.

Currently, memmap_on_memory feature is only supported with memory block
sizes that result in vmemmap pages covering full page blocks. This is
because memory onlining/offlining code requires applicable ranges to be
pageblock-aligned, for example, to set the migratetypes properly.
This patch helps to lift that restriction by reserving more pages than
required for vmemmap space. This helps the start address to be page block
aligned with different memory block sizes. Using this facility implies
the kernel will be reserving some pages for every memoryblock. This
allows the memmap on memory feature to be widely useful with different
memory block size values.
For ex: with 64K page size and 256MiB memory block size, we require 4
pages to map vmemmap pages, To align things correctly we end up adding a
reserve of 28 pages. ie, for every 4096 pages 28 pages get reserved.

Let's update the documentation that any signal is sufficient, and add a
comment that not only checking for fatal signals is historical baggage:
changing it now could break existing user space. although unlikely.
For example, when an app provides a custom SIGALRM handler and triggers
memory offlining, the timeout cmd would no longer stop memory offlining,
because SIGALRM would no longer be considered a fatal signal.
Note that using signal_pending() instead of fatal_signal_pending() is
an anti-pattern, but slowly deprecating that behavior to eventually
change it in the far future is probably not worth the effort. If this
ever becomes relevant for user-space, we might want to rethink.

kmem.limit_in_bytes (v1 way to limit kernel memory usage) has been
deprecated since 58056f7750 ("memcg, kmem: further deprecate
kmem.limit_in_bytes") merged in 5.16. We haven't heard about any serious
users since then but it seems that the mere presence of the file is
causing more harm thatn good. We (SUSE) have had several bug reports from
customers where Docker based containers started to fail because a write to
kmem.limit_in_bytes has failed.
This was unexpected because runc code only expects ENOENT (kmem disabled)
or EBUSY (tasks already running within cgroup). So a new error code was
unexpected and the whole container startup failed. This has been later
addressed by
52390d6804
so current Docker runtimes do not suffer from the problem anymore. There
are still older version of Docker in use and likely hard to get rid of
completely.
Address this by wiping out the file completely and effectively get back to
pre 4.5 era and CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM=n configuration.
I would recommend backporting to stable trees which have picked up
58056f7750 ("memcg, kmem: further deprecate kmem.limit_in_bytes").

As pages_sharing and pages_shared don't include the number of zero pages
merged by KSM, we cannot know how many pages are zero pages placed by KSM
when enabling use_zero_pages, which leads to KSM not being transparent
with all actual merged pages by KSM. In the early days of use_zero_pages,
zero-pages was unable to get unshared by the ways like MADV_UNMERGEABLE so
it's hard to count how many times one of those zeropages was then
unmerged.
But now, unsharing KSM-placed zero page accurately has been achieved, so
we can easily count both how many times a page full of zeroes was merged
with zero-page and how many times one of those pages was then unmerged.
and so, it helps to estimate memory demands when each and every shared
page could get unshared.
So we add ksm_zero_pages under /sys/kernel/mm/ksm/ to show the number
of all zero pages placed by KSM. Meanwhile, we update the Documentation.

Since for MMIO driver using FIFO registers, also known as tpm_tis, the

If someone wants to explicitly enable IRQs for a TPM chip that should be
without question allowed. It could very well be a piece hardware in the

Add an optional timeout arg to 'rootwait' as the maximum time in
seconds to wait for the root device to show up before attempting
forced mount of the root filesystem.
Use case:
In case of device mapper usage for the rootfs (e.g. root=/dev/dm-0),
if the mapper is not able to create the virtual block for any reason
(wrong arguments, bad dm-verity signature, etc), the `rootwait` param
causes the kernel to wait forever. It may however be desirable to only
wait for a given time and then panic (force mount) to cause device reset.
This gives the bootloader a chance to detect the problem and to take some
measures, such as marking the booted partition as bad (for A/B case) or
entering a recovery mode.
In success case, mounting happens as soon as the root device is ready,
unlike the existing 'rootdelay' parameter which performs an unconditional
pause.

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>
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>
Unbound workqueue CPU affinity is going to receive an overhaul and the NUMA
specific knobs won't make sense anymore. Remove them. Also, the pool_ids
knob was used for debugging and not really meaningful given that there is no

Add a mitigation for the speculative return address stack overflow
vulnerability found on AMD processors.
The mitigation works by ensuring all RET instructions speculate to
a controlled location, similar to how speculation is controlled in the
retpoline sequence. To accomplish this, the __x86_return_thunk forces
the CPU to mispredict every function return using a 'safe return'
sequence.
To ensure the safety of this mitigation, the kernel must ensure that the
safe return sequence is itself free from attacker interference. In Zen3
and Zen4, this is accomplished by creating a BTB alias between the
untraining function srso_untrain_ret_alias() and the safe return
function srso_safe_ret_alias() which results in evicting a potentially
poisoned BTB entry and using that safe one for all function returns.
In older Zen1 and Zen2, this is accomplished using a reinterpretation
technique similar to Retbleed one: srso_untrain_ret() and
srso_safe_ret().

As it says on the tin, provide Kconfig option to control parsing the
"riscv,isa" devicetree property. If either option is used, the kernel
will fall back to parsing "riscv,isa", where "riscv,isa-base" and
"riscv,isa-extensions" are not present.
The Kconfig options are set up so that the default kernel configuration
will enable the fallback path, without needing the commandline option.

The Gather Data Sampling (GDS) vulnerability allows malicious software
to infer stale data previously stored in vector registers. This may
include sensitive data such as cryptographic keys. GDS is mitigated in
microcode, and systems with up-to-date microcode are protected by
default. However, any affected system that is running with older
microcode will still be vulnerable to GDS attacks.
Since the gather instructions used by the attacker are part of the
AVX2 and AVX512 extensions, disabling these extensions prevents gather
instructions from being executed, thereby mitigating the system from
GDS. Disabling AVX2 is sufficient, but we don't have the granularity
to do this. The XCR0[2] disables AVX, with no option to just disable
AVX2.
Add a kernel parameter gather_data_sampling=force that will enable the
microcode mitigation if available, otherwise it will disable AVX on
affected systems.
This option will be ignored if cmdline mitigations=off.
This is a *big* hammer. It is known to break buggy userspace that
uses incomplete, buggy AVX enumeration. Unfortunately, such userspace
does exist in the wild:

Gather Data Sampling (GDS) is a hardware vulnerability which allows
unprivileged speculative access to data which was previously stored in
vector registers.
Intel processors that support AVX2 and AVX512 have gather instructions
that fetch non-contiguous data elements from memory. On vulnerable
hardware, when a gather instruction is transiently executed and
encounters a fault, stale data from architectural or internal vector
registers may get transiently stored to the destination vector
register allowing an attacker to infer the stale data using typical
side channel techniques like cache timing attacks.
This mitigation is different from many earlier ones for two reasons.
First, it is enabled by default and a bit must be set to *DISABLE* it.
This is the opposite of normal mitigation polarity. This means GDS can
be mitigated simply by updating microcode and leaving the new control
bit alone.
Second, GDS has a "lock" bit. This lock bit is there because the
mitigation affects the hardware security features KeyLocker and SGX.
It needs to be enabled and *STAY* enabled for these features to be
mitigated against GDS.
The mitigation is enabled in the microcode by default. Disable it by
setting gather_data_sampling=off or by disabling all mitigations with
mitigations=off. The mitigation status can be checked by reading:

The various RCU Tasks flavors now do lazy grace periods when there are
only asynchronous grace period requests. By default, the system will let
250 milliseconds elapse after the first call_rcu_tasks*() callbacki is
queued before starting a grace period. In contrast, synchronous grace
period requests such as synchronize_rcu_tasks*() will start a grace
period immediately.
However, invoking one of the call_rcu_tasks*() functions in a too-tight
loop can result in a callback flood, which in turn can exhaust memory
if grace periods are delayed for too long.
This commit therefore sets a limit so that the grace-period kthread
will be awakened when any CPU's callback list expands to contain
rcupdate.rcu_task_lazy_lim callbacks elements (defaulting to 32, set to -1
to disable), the grace-period kthread will be awakened, thus cancelling
any ongoing laziness and getting out in front of the potential callback
flood.

The kernel cmdline option panic_on_warn expects an integer, it is not a
plain option as documented. A number of uses in the tree figured this
already, and use panic_on_warn=1 for their purpose.
Adjust a comment which otherwise may mislead people in the future.

Merge tag 'cxl-for-6.5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cxl/cxl
Pull CXL updates from Dan Williams:
"The highlights in terms of new functionality are support for the
standard CXL Performance Monitor definition that appeared in CXL 3.0,
support for device sanitization (wiping all data from a device),
secure-erase (re-keying encryption of user data), and support for
firmware update. The firmware update support is notable as it reuses
the simple sysfs_upload interface to just cat(1) a blob to a sysfs
file and pipe that to the device.
Additionally there are a substantial number of cleanups and
reorganizations to get ready for RCH error handling (RCH == Restricted
CXL Host == current shipping hardware generation / pre CXL-2.0
topologies) and type-2 (accelerator / vendor specific) devices.
For vendor specific devices they implement a subset of what the
generic type-3 (generic memory expander) driver expects. As a result
the rework decouples optional infrastructure from the core driver
context.
For RCH topologies, where the specification working group did not want
to confuse pre-CXL-aware operating systems, many of the standard
registers are hidden which makes support standard bus features like
AER (PCIe Advanced Error Reporting) difficult. The rework arranges for
the driver to help the PCI-AER core. Bjorn is on board with this
direction but a late regression disocvery means the completion of this
functionality needs to cook a bit longer, so it is code
reorganizations only for now.
Summary:
- Add infrastructure for supporting background commands along with
support for device sanitization and firmware update
- Introduce a CXL performance monitoring unit driver based on the
common definition in the specification.
- Land some preparatory cleanup and refactoring for the anticipated
arrival of CXL type-2 (accelerator devices) and CXL RCH (CXL-v1.1
topology) error handling.
- Rework CPU cache management with respect to region configuration

Core
----
- Rework the sendpage & splice implementations. Instead of feeding
data into sockets page by page extend sendmsg handlers to support
taking a reference on the data, controlled by a new flag called
MSG_SPLICE_PAGES. Rework the handling of unexpected-end-of-file
to invoke an additional callback instead of trying to predict what
the right combination of MORE/NOTLAST flags is.
Remove the MSG_SENDPAGE_NOTLAST flag completely.
- Implement SCM_PIDFD, a new type of CMSG type analogous to
SCM_CREDENTIALS, but it contains pidfd instead of plain pid.
- Enable socket busy polling with CONFIG_RT.
- Improve reliability and efficiency of reporting for ref_tracker.
- Auto-generate a user space C library for various Netlink families.
Protocols
---------
- Allow TCP to shrink the advertised window when necessary, prevent
sk_rcvbuf auto-tuning from growing the window all the way up to
tcp_rmem[2].
- Use per-VMA locking for "page-flipping" TCP receive zerocopy.
- Prepare TCP for device-to-device data transfers, by making sure
that payloads are always attached to skbs as page frags.
- Make the backoff time for the first N TCP SYN retransmissions
linear. Exponential backoff is unnecessarily conservative.
- Create a new MPTCP getsockopt to retrieve all info (MPTCP_FULL_INFO).
- Avoid waking up applications using TLS sockets until we have
a full record.
- Allow using kernel memory for protocol ioctl callbacks, paving
the way to issuing ioctls over io_uring.
- Add nolocalbypass option to VxLAN, forcing packets to be fully
encapsulated even if they are destined for a local IP address.
- Make TCPv4 use consistent hash in TIME_WAIT and SYN_RECV. Ensure
in-kernel ECMP implementation (e.g. Open vSwitch) select the same
link for all packets. Support L4 symmetric hashing in Open vSwitch.
- PPPoE: make number of hash bits configurable.
- Allow DNS to be overwritten by DHCPACK in the in-kernel DHCP client
(ipconfig).
- Add layer 2 miss indication and filtering, allowing higher layers
(e.g. ACL filters) to make forwarding decisions based on whether
packet matched forwarding state in lower devices (bridge).
- Support matching on Connectivity Fault Management (CFM) packets.
- Hide the "link becomes ready" IPv6 messages by demoting their
printk level to debug.
- HSR: don't enable promiscuous mode if device offloads the proto.
- Support active scanning in IEEE 802.15.4.
- Continue work on Multi-Link Operation for WiFi 7.
BPF
---
- Add precision propagation for subprogs and callbacks. This allows
maintaining verification efficiency when subprograms are used,
or in fact passing the verifier at all for complex programs,
especially those using open-coded iterators.
- Improve BPF's {g,s}setsockopt() length handling. Previously BPF
assumed the length is always equal to the amount of written data.
But some protos allow passing a NULL buffer to discover what
the output buffer *should* be, without writing anything.
- Accept dynptr memory as memory arguments passed to helpers.
- Add routing table ID to bpf_fib_lookup BPF helper.
- Support O_PATH FDs in BPF_OBJ_PIN and BPF_OBJ_GET commands.
- Drop bpf_capable() check in BPF_MAP_FREEZE command (used to mark
maps as read-only).
- Show target_{obj,btf}_id in tracing link fdinfo.
- Addition of several new kfuncs (most of the names are self-explanatory):
- Add a set of new dynptr kfuncs: bpf_dynptr_adjust(),
bpf_dynptr_is_null(), bpf_dynptr_is_rdonly(), bpf_dynptr_size()
and bpf_dynptr_clone().
- bpf_task_under_cgroup()
- bpf_sock_destroy() - force closing sockets
- bpf_cpumask_first_and(), rework bpf_cpumask_any*() kfuncs
Netfilter
---------
- Relax set/map validation checks in nf_tables. Allow checking
presence of an entry in a map without using the value.
- Increase ip_vs_conn_tab_bits range for 64BIT builds.
- Allow updating size of a set.
- Improve NAT tuple selection when connection is closing.
Driver API
----------
- Integrate netdev with LED subsystem, to allow configuring HW
"offloaded" blinking of LEDs based on link state and activity
(i.e. packets coming in and out).
- Support configuring rate selection pins of SFP modules.
- Factor Clause 73 auto-negotiation code out of the drivers, provide
common helper routines.
- Add more fool-proof helpers for managing lifetime of MDIO devices
associated with the PCS layer.
- Allow drivers to report advanced statistics related to Time Aware
scheduler offload (taprio).
- Allow opting out of VF statistics in link dump, to allow more VFs
to fit into the message.
- Split devlink instance and devlink port operations.

- Build footprint & performance improvements:
- Reduce memory usage with CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y
In the worst case of an allyesconfig+CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y kernel, DWARF
creates almost 200 million relocations, ballooning objtool's peak heap
usage to 53GB. These patches reduce that to 25GB.
On a distro-type kernel with kernel IBT enabled, they reduce objtool's
peak heap usage from 4.2GB to 2.8GB.
These changes also improve the runtime significantly.
- Debuggability improvements:
- Add the unwind_debug command-line option, for more extend unwinding
debugging output.
- Limit unreachable warnings to once per function
- Add verbose option for disassembling affected functions
- Include backtrace in verbose mode

- 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.

Hello,
This patch is to expose misc.current on cgroup v2 root for tracking
how much of the resource has been consumed in total on the system.
Most of the cloud infrastucture use cgroup to fetch the host
information for scheduling purpose.
Currently, the misc controller can be used by Intel TDX HKIDs and
AMD SEV ASIDs, which are both used for creating encrypted VMs.
Intel TDX and AMD SEV are mostly be used by the cloud providers
for providing confidential VMs.
In actual use of a server, these confidential VMs may be launched
in different ways. For the cloud solution, there are kubvirt and
coco (tracked by kubepods.slice); on host, they can be booted
directly through qemu by end user (tracked by user.slice), etc.
In this complex environment, when wanting to know how many resource
is used in total it has to iterate through all existing slices to
get the value of each misc.current and add them up to calculate
the total number of consumed keys.
So exposing misc.current to root cgroup tends to give much easier
when calculates how much resource has been used in total, which
helps to schedule and count resources for the cloud infrastucture.

Architecture-specific documentation is being moved into Documentation/arch/
as a way of cleaning up the top-level documentation directory and making
the docs hierarchy more closely match the source hierarchy. Move
Documentation/arm64 into arch/ (along with the Chinese equvalent
translations) and fix up documentation references.

The recommended ways for getting DAMON monitoring results are using
tried_regions sysfs directory for partial snapshot of the results, and
DAMON tracepoint for full record of the results. However, the
tried_regions sysfs directory usage has not sufficiently updated on some
sections of the DAMON usage document. Update those.

DAMON user-space tool, damo, has deprecated[1] its old DAMOS schemes
specification format. However, an example of DAMON documentation is still
using it. Update the example to use one of the alternative options.

Building the 'htmldocs' target results in the following warning when
processing 'hisi-pmu.rst':
| Documentation/admin-guide/perf/hisi-pmu.rst:107: ERROR: Unexpected indentation.
Fix the warning by converting all of the register bitfield lists into
proper bulleted lists and adjusting the indentation of the wrapping line
accordingly. At the same time, use an enumerated list to describe the
new PMUv2 functions.
