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

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

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

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

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

docs: ftrace: always use canonical ftrace path
The canonical location for the tracefs filesystem is at /sys/kernel/tracing. But, from Documentation/trace/ftrace.rst: Before 4.1, all ftrace tracing control files were within the debugfs file system, which is typically located at /sys/kernel/debug/tracing. For backward compatibility, when mounting the debugfs file system, the tracefs file system will be automatically mounted at: /sys/kernel/debug/tracing Many parts of Documentation still reference this older debugfs path, so let's update them to avoid confusion.

hardening updates for v6.2-rc1
- Convert flexible array members, fix -Wstringop-overflow warnings,
and fix KCFI function type mismatches that went ignored by
maintainers (Gustavo A. R. Silva, Nathan Chancellor, Kees Cook).
- Remove the remaining side-effect users of ksize() by converting
dma-buf, btrfs, and coredump to using kmalloc_size_roundup(),
add more __alloc_size attributes, and introduce full testing
of all allocator functions. Finally remove the ksize() side-effect
so that each allocation-aware checker can finally behave without
exceptions.
- Introduce oops_limit (default 10,000) and warn_limit (default off)
to provide greater granularity of control for panic_on_oops and
panic_on_warn (Jann Horn, Kees Cook).
- Introduce overflows_type() and castable_to_type() helpers for
cleaner overflow checking.
- Improve code generation for strscpy() and update str*() kern-doc.
- Convert strscpy and sigphash tests to KUnit, and expand memcpy
tests.
- Always use a non-NULL argument for prepare_kernel_cred().
- Disable structleak plugin in FORTIFY KUnit test (Anders Roxell).
- Adjust orphan linker section checking to respect CONFIG_WERROR
(Xin Li).
- Make sure siginfo is cleared for forced SIGKILL (haifeng.xu).
- Fix um vs FORTIFY warnings for always-NULL arguments.

This was a not-too-busy cycle for documentation; highlights include:
- The beginnings of a set of translations into Spanish, headed up by Carlos
Bilbao.
- More Chinese translations.
- A change to the Sphinx "alabaster" theme by default for HTML generation.
Unlike the previous default (Read the Docs), alabaster is shipped with
Sphinx by default, reducing the number of other dependencies that need to
be installed. It also (IMO) produces a cleaner and more readable result.
- The ability to render the documentation into the texinfo format
(something Sphinx could always do, we just never wired it up until now).
Plus the usual collection of typo fixes, build-warning fixes, and minor
updates.

Updates for timers, timekeeping and drivers:
- Core:
- The timer_shutdown[_sync]() infrastructure:
Tearing down timers can be tedious when there are circular
dependencies to other things which need to be torn down. A prime
example is timer and workqueue where the timer schedules work and the
work arms the timer.
What needs to prevented is that pending work which is drained via
destroy_workqueue() does not rearm the previously shutdown
timer. Nothing in that shutdown sequence relies on the timer being
functional.
The conclusion was that the semantics of timer_shutdown_sync() should
be:
- timer is not enqueued
- timer callback is not running
- timer cannot be rearmed
Preventing the rearming of shutdown timers is done by discarding rearm
attempts silently. A warning for the case that a rearm attempt of a
shutdown timer is detected would not be really helpful because it's
entirely unclear how it should be acted upon. The only way to address
such a case is to add 'if (in_shutdown)' conditionals all over the
place. This is error prone and in most cases of teardown not required
all.
- The real fix for the bluetooth HCI teardown based on
timer_shutdown_sync().
A larger scale conversion to timer_shutdown_sync() is work in
progress.
- Consolidation of VDSO time namespace helper functions
- Small fixes for timer and timerqueue
- Drivers:
- Prevent integer overflow on the XGene-1 TVAL register which causes
an never ending interrupt storm.
- The usual set of new device tree bindings
- Small fixes and improvements all over the place

Pull timer updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Updates for timers, timekeeping and drivers:
Core:
- The timer_shutdown[_sync]() infrastructure:
Tearing down timers can be tedious when there are circular
dependencies to other things which need to be torn down. A prime
example is timer and workqueue where the timer schedules work and
the work arms the timer.
What needs to prevented is that pending work which is drained via
destroy_workqueue() does not rearm the previously shutdown timer.
Nothing in that shutdown sequence relies on the timer being
functional.
The conclusion was that the semantics of timer_shutdown_sync()
should be:
- timer is not enqueued
- timer callback is not running
- timer cannot be rearmed
Preventing the rearming of shutdown timers is done by discarding
rearm attempts silently.
A warning for the case that a rearm attempt of a shutdown timer is
detected would not be really helpful because it's entirely unclear
how it should be acted upon. The only way to address such a case is
to add 'if (in_shutdown)' conditionals all over the place. This is
error prone and in most cases of teardown not required all.
- The real fix for the bluetooth HCI teardown based on
timer_shutdown_sync().
A larger scale conversion to timer_shutdown_sync() is work in
progress.
- Consolidation of VDSO time namespace helper functions
- Small fixes for timer and timerqueue
Drivers:
- Prevent integer overflow on the XGene-1 TVAL register which causes
an never ending interrupt storm.
- The usual set of new device tree bindings
- Small fixes and improvements all over the place"

timers: Update the documentation to reflect on the new timer_shutdown() API
In order to make sure that a timer is not re-armed after it is stopped before freeing, a new shutdown state is added to the timer code. The API timer_shutdown_sync() and timer_shutdown() must be called before the object that holds the timer can be freed. Update the documentation to reflect this new workflow.

math64: favor kernel-doc from header files
Fix the kernel-doc markings for div64 functions to point to the header file instead of the lib/ directory. This avoids having implementation specific comments in generic documentation.

vsprintf: add new `%pA` format specifier
This patch adds a format specifier `%pA` to `vsprintf` which formats a pointer as `core::fmt::Arguments`. Doing so allows us to directly format to the internal buffer of `printf`, so we do not have to use a temporary buffer on the stack to pre-assemble the message on the Rust side. This specifier is intended only to be used from Rust and not for C, so `checkpatch.pl` is intentionally unchanged to catch any misuse.

Maple Tree: add new data structure
Patch series "Introducing the Maple Tree" The maple tree is an RCU-safe range based B-tree designed to use modern processor cache efficiently. There are a number of places in the kernel that a non-overlapping range-based tree would be beneficial, especially one with a simple interface. If you use an rbtree with other data structures to improve performance or an interval tree to track non-overlapping ranges, then this is for you. The tree has a branching factor of 10 for non-leaf nodes and 16 for leaf nodes. With the increased branching factor, it is significantly shorter than the rbtree so it has fewer cache misses. The removal of the linked list between subsequent entries also reduces the cache misses and the need to pull in the previous and next VMA during many tree alterations. The first user that is covered in this patch set is the vm_area_struct, where three data structures are replaced by the maple tree: the augmented rbtree, the vma cache, and the linked list of VMAs in the mm_struct. The long term goal is to reduce or remove the mmap_lock contention. The plan is to get to the point where we use the maple tree in RCU mode. Readers will not block for writers. A single write operation will be allowed at a time. A reader re-walks if stale data is encountered. VMAs would be RCU enabled and this mode would be entered once multiple tasks are using the mm_struct. Davidlor said : Yes I like the maple tree, and at this stage I don't think we can ask for : more from this series wrt the MM - albeit there seems to still be some : folks reporting breakage. Fundamentally I see Liam's work to (re)move : complexity out of the MM (not to say that the actual maple tree is not : complex) by consolidating the three complimentary data structures very : much worth it considering performance does not take a hit. This was very : much a turn off with the range locking approach, which worst case scenario : incurred in prohibitive overhead. Also as Liam and Matthew have : mentioned, RCU opens up a lot of nice performance opportunities, and in : addition academia[1] has shown outstanding scalability of address spaces : with the foundation of replacing the locked rbtree with RCU aware trees. A similar work has been discovered in the academic press https://pdos.csail.mit.edu/papers/rcuvm:asplos12.pdf Sheer coincidence. We designed our tree with the intention of solving the hardest problem first. Upon settling on a b-tree variant and a rough outline, we researched ranged based b-trees and RCU b-trees and did find that article. So it was nice to find reassurances that we were on the right path, but our design choice of using ranges made that paper unusable for us. This patch (of 70): The maple tree is an RCU-safe range based B-tree designed to use modern processor cache efficiently. There are a number of places in the kernel that a non-overlapping range-based tree would be beneficial, especially one with a simple interface. If you use an rbtree with other data structures to improve performance or an interval tree to track non-overlapping ranges, then this is for you. The tree has a branching factor of 10 for non-leaf nodes and 16 for leaf nodes. With the increased branching factor, it is significantly shorter than the rbtree so it has fewer cache misses. The removal of the linked list between subsequent entries also reduces the cache misses and the need to pull in the previous and next VMA during many tree alterations. The first user that is covered in this patch set is the vm_area_struct, where three data structures are replaced by the maple tree: the augmented rbtree, the vma cache, and the linked list of VMAs in the mm_struct. The long term goal is to reduce or remove the mmap_lock contention. The plan is to get to the point where we use the maple tree in RCU mode. Readers will not block for writers. A single write operation will be allowed at a time. A reader re-walks if stale data is encountered. VMAs would be RCU enabled and this mode would be entered once multiple tasks are using the mm_struct. There is additional BUG_ON() calls added within the tree, most of which are in debug code. These will be replaced with a WARN_ON() call in the future. There is also additional BUG_ON() calls within the code which will also be reduced in number at a later date. These exist to catch things such as out-of-range accesses which would crash anyways.

Multi-gen LRU still isn't merged as we were waiting for mapletree to

asm-generic: updates for 6.0
There are three independent sets of changes:
- Sai Prakash Ranjan adds tracing support to the asm-generic
version of the MMIO accessors, which is intended to help
understand problems with device drivers and has been part
of Qualcomm's vendor kernels for many years.
- A patch from Sebastian Siewior to rework the handling of
IRQ stacks in softirqs across architectures, which is
needed for enabling PREEMPT_RT.
- The last patch to remove the CONFIG_VIRT_TO_BUS option and
some of the code behind that, after the last users of this
old interface made it in through the netdev, scsi, media and
staging trees.

dma-mapping: add dma_opt_mapping_size()
Streaming DMA mapping involving an IOMMU may be much slower for larger total mapping size. This is because every IOMMU DMA mapping requires an IOVA to be allocated and freed. IOVA sizes above a certain limit are not cached, which can have a big impact on DMA mapping performance. Provide an API for device drivers to know this "optimal" limit, such that they may try to produce mapping which don't exceed it.

arch/*/: remove CONFIG_VIRT_TO_BUS
All architecture-independent users of virt_to_bus() and bus_to_virt() have been fixed to use the dma mapping interfaces or have been removed now. This means the definitions on most architectures, and the CONFIG_VIRT_TO_BUS symbol are now obsolete and can be removed. The only exceptions to this are a few network and scsi drivers for m68k Amiga and VME machines and ppc32 Macintosh. These drivers work correctly with the old interfaces and are probably not worth changing. On alpha and parisc, virt_to_bus() were still used in asm/floppy.h. alpha can use isa_virt_to_bus() like x86 does, and parisc can just open-code the virt_to_phys() here, as this is architecture specific code. I tried updating the bus-virt-phys-mapping.rst documentation, which started as an email from Linus to explain some details of the Linux-2.0 driver interfaces. The bits about virt_to_bus() were declared obsolete backin 2000, and the rest is not all that relevant any more, so in the end I just decided to remove the file completely.

docs: rename Documentation/vm to Documentation/mm
so it will be consistent with code mm directory and with Documentation/admin-guide/mm and won't be confused with virtual machines.

Documentation/protection-keys: Clean up documentation for User Space pkeys
The documentation for user space pkeys was a bit dated including things such as Amazon and distribution testing information which is irrelevant now. Update the documentation. This also streamlines adding the Supervisor pkey documentation later on.

It was a moderately busy cycle for documentation; highlights include:
- After a long period of inactivity, the Japanese translations are seeing
some much-needed maintenance and updating.
- Reworked IOMMU documentation
- Some new documentation for static-analysis tools
- A new overall structure for the memory-management documentation. This
is an LSFMM outcome that, it is hoped, will help encourage developers to
fill in the many gaps. Optimism is eternal...but hopefully it will
work.
- More Chinese translations.
Plus the usual typo fixes, updates, etc.
