1f2190d6b7 arch/*/configs/*defconfig: Replace AUTOFS4_FS by AUTOFS_FS
Commit a2225d931f ("autofs: remove left-over autofs4 stubs")
promised the removal of the fs/autofs/Kconfig fragment for AUTOFS4_FS
within a couple of releases, but five years later this still has not
happened yet, and AUTOFS4_FS is still enabled in 63 defconfigs.

Get rid of it mechanically:

   git grep -l CONFIG_AUTOFS4_FS -- '*defconfig' |
       xargs sed -i 's/AUTOFS4_FS/AUTOFS_FS/'

Also just remove the AUTOFS4_FS config option stub.  Anybody who hasn't
regenerated their config file in the last five years will need to just
get the new name right when they do.

b751ed04bc powerpc: drop MPC85xx_CDS platform support
The MPC8541/8548/8555 Configurable Development System (CDS) were the
vehicle used to provide evaluation of the 1st e500-v2 CPUs around 2007.

Similar to the earlier MPC83xx-MDS systems we removed, the "brains"
exist on a PCI-X card, but additional connectors exist to the right of
the PCI-X slot, two structural metal pins are used to provide stability
in a vertical ATX mounting, and the CPU is now on a daughter-card vs. a
clamped down BGA.

Given the extra complexity and risk of connector damage, the 8548CDS
I had access to came pre-assembled in a basic white Antec case common
for that era, and I'm inclined to assume that was the default.

Power was typical "Pentium4" 2005 ATX - the main 20 pin connector went
to the PCI ATX form factor backplane, and the 4 pin black/yellow went
to the CPU card.

Like previous evaluation boards, they attempted to provide break-out
connectors for as many features as possible, and that made for a fairly
complex looking system.

In any case, these are over 15 years old, and fairly complex systems,
originally made for a small group of industry related people, and made
for use where quiet fan operation wasn't important.  Given that, it
makes sense to remove support from them in 2023.

384e338a91 powerpc: drop MPC8540_ADS and MPC8560_ADS platform support
Based on the revision history in the manual(s), these e500-v1
platforms were first available around 2002.

Like a lot of evaluation boards, they attempted to provide break-out
connectors for all possible features, and that combined with four
PCI-X slots (and the age/era) meant for a considerably large board.

As I recall it, from a Linux point of view, the biggest difference
between 8540 and 8560 was in the UART implementation, and that is
reflected in a diff of the defconfigs.

In any case, these are over 20 years old, and by today's standards
only have a small amount of DDR1 memory, and were not widely available.

Given that, it makes sense to remove support from them in 2023.

eb07c4f39c mm/slab: rename CONFIG_SLAB to CONFIG_SLAB_DEPRECATED
As discussed at LSF/MM [1] [2] and with no objections raised there,
deprecate the SLAB allocator. Rename the user-visible option so that
users with CONFIG_SLAB=y get a new prompt with explanation during make
oldconfig, while make olddefconfig will just switch to SLUB.

In all defconfigs with CONFIG_SLAB=y remove the line so those also
switch to SLUB. Regressions due to the switch should be reported to
linux-mm and slab maintainers.

   - Lots of IIO driver updates and additions
   - MHI driver updates
   - Coresight driver updates
   - NVMEM driver updates, which required some OF updates
   - W1 driver updates and a new maintainer to manage the subsystem
   - FPGA driver updates
   - New driver subsystem, CDX, for AMD systems
   - lots of other small driver updates and additions
 
 All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported

Linus Torvalds
6e98b09da9 Networking changes for 6.4.
Core
 ----
 
  - Introduce a config option to tweak MAX_SKB_FRAGS. Increasing the
    default value allows for better BIG TCP performances.
 
  - Reduce compound page head access for zero-copy data transfers.
 
  - RPS/RFS improvements, avoiding unneeded NET_RX_SOFTIRQ when possible.
 
  - Threaded NAPI improvements, adding defer skb free support and unneeded
    softirq avoidance.
 
  - Address dst_entry reference count scalability issues, via false
    sharing avoidance and optimize refcount tracking.
 
  - Add lockless accesses annotation to sk_err[_soft].
 
  - Optimize again the skb struct layout.
 
  - Extends the skb drop reasons to make it usable by multiple
    subsystems.
 
  - Better const qualifier awareness for socket casts.
 
 BPF
 ---
 
  - Add skb and XDP typed dynptrs which allow BPF programs for more
    ergonomic and less brittle iteration through data and variable-sized
    accesses.
 
  - Add a new BPF netfilter program type and minimal support to hook
    BPF programs to netfilter hooks such as prerouting or forward.
 
  - Add more precise memory usage reporting for all BPF map types.
 
  - Adds support for using {FOU,GUE} encap with an ipip device operating
    in collect_md mode and add a set of BPF kfuncs for controlling encap
    params.
 
  - Allow BPF programs to detect at load time whether a particular kfunc
    exists or not, and also add support for this in light skeleton.
 
  - Bigger batch of BPF verifier improvements to prepare for upcoming BPF
    open-coded iterators allowing for less restrictive looping capabilities.
 
  - Rework RCU enforcement in the verifier, add kptr_rcu and enforce BPF
    programs to NULL-check before passing such pointers into kfunc.
 
  - Add support for kptrs in percpu hashmaps, percpu LRU hashmaps and in
    local storage maps.
 
  - Enable RCU semantics for task BPF kptrs and allow referenced kptr
    tasks to be stored in BPF maps.
 
  - Add support for refcounted local kptrs to the verifier for allowing
    shared ownership, useful for adding a node to both the BPF list and
    rbtree.
 
  - Add BPF verifier support for ST instructions in convert_ctx_access()
    which will help new -mcpu=v4 clang flag to start emitting them.
 
  - Add ARM32 USDT support to libbpf.
 
  - Improve bpftool's visual program dump which produces the control
    flow graph in a DOT format by adding C source inline annotations.
 
 Protocols
 ---------
 
  - IPv4: Allow adding to IPv4 address a 'protocol' tag. Such value
    indicates the provenance of the IP address.
 
  - IPv6: optimize route lookup, dropping unneeded R/W lock acquisition.
 
  - Add the handshake upcall mechanism, allowing the user-space
    to implement generic TLS handshake on kernel's behalf.
 
  - Bridge: support per-{Port, VLAN} neighbor suppression, increasing
    resilience to nodes failures.
 
  - SCTP: add support for Fair Capacity and Weighted Fair Queueing
    schedulers.
 
  - MPTCP: delay first subflow allocation up to its first usage. This
    will allow for later better LSM interaction.
 
  - xfrm: Remove inner/outer modes from input/output path. These are
    not needed anymore.
 
  - WiFi:
    - reduced neighbor report (RNR) handling for AP mode
    - HW timestamping support
    - support for randomized auth/deauth TA for PASN privacy
    - per-link debugfs for multi-link
    - TC offload support for mac80211 drivers
    - mac80211 mesh fast-xmit and fast-rx support
    - enable Wi-Fi 7 (EHT) mesh support
 
 Netfilter
 ---------
 
  - Add nf_tables 'brouting' support, to force a packet to be routed
    instead of being bridged.
 
  - Update bridge netfilter and ovs conntrack helpers to handle
    IPv6 Jumbo packets properly, i.e. fetch the packet length
    from hop-by-hop extension header. This is needed for BIT TCP
    support.
 
  - The iptables 32bit compat interface isn't compiled in by default
    anymore.
 
  - Move ip(6)tables builtin icmp matches to the udptcp one.
    This has the advantage that icmp/icmpv6 match doesn't load the
    iptables/ip6tables modules anymore when iptables-nft is used.
 
  - Extended netlink error report for netdevice in flowtables and
    netdev/chains. Allow for incrementally add/delete devices to netdev
    basechain. Allow to create netdev chain without device.
 
 Driver API
 ----------
 
  - Remove redundant Device Control Error Reporting Enable, as PCI core
    has already error reporting enabled at enumeration time.
 
  - Move Multicast DB netlink handlers to core, allowing devices other
    then bridge to use them.
 
  - Allow the page_pool to directly recycle the pages from safely
    localized NAPI.
 
  - Implement lockless TX queue stop/wake combo macros, allowing for
    further code de-duplication and sanitization.
 
  - Add YNL support for user headers and struct attrs.
 
  - Add partial YNL specification for devlink.
 
  - Add partial YNL specification for ethtool.
 
  - Add tc-mqprio and tc-taprio support for preemptible traffic classes.
 
  - Add tx push buf len param to ethtool, specifies the maximum number
    of bytes of a transmitted packet a driver can push directly to the
    underlying device.
 
  - Add basic LED support for switch/phy.
 
  - Add NAPI documentation, stop relaying on external links.
 
  - Convert dsa_master_ioctl() to netdev notifier. This is a preparatory
    work to make the hardware timestamping layer selectable by user
    space.
 
  - Add transceiver support and improve the error messages for CAN-FD
    controllers.

9ecda934f4 powerpc/configs: Make pseries_defconfig an alias for ppc64le_guest
Rather than trying to keep multiple configs up to date, make
pseries_defconfig an alias for ppc64le_guest_defconfig.

NOTE, pseries_defconfig was a big endian config, but this commit
switches it to little endian.

Almost all distros are ppc64le these days, so little endian is much more
likely to be what a user wants when they build for "pseries".

For an actual big endian guest, use ppc64_guest_defconfig.

Add PPC_QEMU_E500 to corenet_base.config, which is then used to generate
corenet64_smp_defconfig and corenet32_smp_defconfig.

That then allows both those configs to build kernels that boot in qemu
using the ppce500 machine type and respectively -cpu e5500 or -cpu
e500mc.

The code that is added by PPC_QEMU_E500 just defines another machine
with a probe function that recognises qemu, so there should be no change
when booting on actual hardware supported by CORENET_GENERIC.

The increase in vmlinux size is less than 1KB.

859b21a008 powerpc: drop PowerQUICC II Family ADS platform support
Based on documentation revision dates, this MPC82xx pq2fads system
predates the MPC8272-ADS variant by about a year and only has 1/2
the amount of RAM (32MB) -- largely making it useless with a modern
v6.x kernel from today.

Similar to the MPC8272-ADS the pq2fads also supported other 82xx CPU
variants, had 8MB flash, and like the 8272 ADS platform, was on a fairly
large PCB in order to have space for breakout connectors for all features.

These 82xx platforms are two decades old, and originally made for a
small group of industry related people in order to assist in new OEM
board designs.  Given that, it makes sense to remove support today.

248667f8bb powerpc: drop HPCD/MPC8610 evaluation platform support
This evaluation platform was essentially a single core 8641 with
integrated graphics/display support - in an effort to reduce chip count
on kiosk and similar applications.

Compared to other evaluation platforms considered for removal in other
recent commits, this platform was relatively rare.  Unlike all the other
10+ platforms, I couldn't find any documentation on it - just a link to
downloading the 2007 era BSP in "LTIB" format as was done back then.

With all that in mind, it seems prudent to remove it here in 2023.

c1d85f3f75 powerpc: drop HPC-NET/MPC8641D evaluation platform support
There is no denying that this was an interesting platform in its day.
Access to a SMP powerpc platform became a bit more obtainable for folks
in the BSP industry in the 2007 era, thanks to this platform.

Add to that the move to the black Antec case vs. the generic white 2005
era case of the MPC8548CDS or the retro 1950s 1/2 height horizontal case
of the HPC II, and it was pretty interesting to people like myself then.

However, like all the other evaluation platforms, the overall system
was complex out of necessity, as it tried to showcase all possible
features and use-cases.  That included an AMP option, where you could run
two bootloaders and two kernels over two serial consoles.  Peripheral
sharing got a bit more tricky when you got to the hard disk and similar.

In any case we still have the same circumstance.  A relatively rare and
expensive evaluation platform that is now 15+ years old and not out there
in large numbers in the general public.  Removal in 2023 just makes sense.

f03425a5fd powerpc: drop HPC II (MPC7448) evaluation platform support.
This was an interesting platform - it was the 1st instance of a
respin of earlier 130nm 74xx CPUs on 90nm and systems using MPC7448
were positioned as a rack server platform solution.

Given that, the evaluation platform (at least the one I had) was shipped
in a horizontal 1/2 height Antec desktop case with retro styling and
colours, despite the fact the docs explicitly stated that the HPC II is
not a desktop machine (noting it had no gfx or legacy PC I/O support).

Historic trivia aside, this was the 1st introduction of the e600
procfam as an evolution from the earlier G4.

However even with the claim to being "1st e600" it seems the 2005+
era was turning its attention to multicore support and from my memory
this poor guy was quickly overshadowed by the dual core MPC8641D.

All that aside, we are once again looking at 15+ year old evaluation
platforms that were not widely distributed, so 2023 removal makes sense.
