Driver core changes for 6.10-rc1
Here is the small set of driver core and kernfs changes for 6.10-rc1. Nothing major here at all, just a small set of changes for some driver core apis, and minor fixups. Included in here are: - sysfs_bin_attr_simple_read() helper added and used - device_show_string() helper added and used All usages of these were acked by the various maintainers. Also in here are: - kernfs minor cleanup - removed unused functions - typo fix in documentation - pay attention to sysfs_create_link() failures in module.c finally. All of these have been in linux-next for a very long time with no reported problems.

Mainly singleton patches, documented in their respective changelogs.
Notable series include: - Some maintenance and performance work for ocfs2 in Heming Zhao's series "improve write IO performance when fragmentation is high". - Some ocfs2 bugfixes from Su Yue in the series "ocfs2 bugs fixes exposed by fstests". - kfifo header rework from Andy Shevchenko in the series "kfifo: Clean up kfifo.h". - GDB script fixes from Florian Rommel in the series "scripts/gdb: Fixes for $lx_current and $lx_per_cpu". - After much discussion, a coding-style update from Barry Song explaining one reason why inline functions are preferred over macros. The series is "codingstyle: avoid unused parameters for a function-like macro". -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iHUEABYIAB0WIQTTMBEPP41GrTpTJgfdBJ7gKXxAjgUCZkpLYQAKCRDdBJ7gKXxA jo9NAQDctSD3TMXqxqCHLaEpCaYTYzi6TGAVHjgkqGzOt7tYjAD/ZIzgcmRwthjP R7SSiSgZ7UnP9JRn16DQILmFeaoG1gs= =lYhr -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'mm-nonmm-stable-2024-05-19-11-56' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm Pull non-mm updates from Andrew Morton: "Mainly singleton patches, documented in their respective changelogs.

The usual shower of singleton fixes and minor series all over MM,
documented (hopefully adequately) in the respective changelogs. Notable series include: - Lucas Stach has provided some page-mapping cleanup/consolidation/maintainability work in the series "mm/treewide: Remove pXd_huge() API". - In the series "Allow migrate on protnone reference with MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY policy", Donet Tom has optimized mempolicy's MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY mode, yielding almost doubled performance in one test. - In their series "Memory allocation profiling" Kent Overstreet and Suren Baghdasaryan have contributed a means of determining (via /proc/allocinfo) whereabouts in the kernel memory is being allocated: number of calls and amount of memory. - Matthew Wilcox has provided the series "Various significant MM patches" which does a number of rather unrelated things, but in largely similar code sites. - In his series "mm: page_alloc: freelist migratetype hygiene" Johannes Weiner has fixed the page allocator's handling of migratetype requests, with resulting improvements in compaction efficiency. - In the series "make the hugetlb migration strategy consistent" Baolin Wang has fixed a hugetlb migration issue, which should improve hugetlb allocation reliability. - Liu Shixin has hit an I/O meltdown caused by readahead in a memory-tight memcg. Addressed in the series "Fix I/O high when memory almost met memcg limit". - In the series "mm/filemap: optimize folio adding and splitting" Kairui Song has optimized pagecache insertion, yielding ~10% performance improvement in one test. - Baoquan He has cleaned up and consolidated the early zone initialization code in the series "mm/mm_init.c: refactor free_area_init_core()". - Baoquan has also redone some MM initializatio code in the series "mm/init: minor clean up and improvement". - MM helper cleanups from Christoph Hellwig in his series "remove follow_pfn". - More cleanups from Matthew Wilcox in the series "Various page->flags cleanups". - Vlastimil Babka has contributed maintainability improvements in the series "memcg_kmem hooks refactoring". - More folio conversions and cleanups in Matthew Wilcox's series "Convert huge_zero_page to huge_zero_folio" "khugepaged folio conversions" "Remove page_idle and page_young wrappers" "Use folio APIs in procfs" "Clean up __folio_put()" "Some cleanups for memory-failure" "Remove page_mapping()" "More folio compat code removal" - David Hildenbrand chipped in with "fs/proc/task_mmu: convert hugetlb functions to work on folis". - Code consolidation and cleanup work related to GUP's handling of hugetlbs in Peter Xu's series "mm/gup: Unify hugetlb, part 2". - Rick Edgecombe has developed some fixes to stack guard gaps in the series "Cover a guard gap corner case". - Jinjiang Tu has fixed KSM's behaviour after a fork+exec in the series "mm/ksm: fix ksm exec support for prctl". - Baolin Wang has implemented NUMA balancing for multi-size THPs. This is a simple first-cut implementation for now. The series is "support multi-size THP numa balancing". - Cleanups to vma handling helper functions from Matthew Wilcox in the series "Unify vma_address and vma_pgoff_address". - Some selftests maintenance work from Dev Jain in the series "selftests/mm: mremap_test: Optimizations and style fixes". - Improvements to the swapping of multi-size THPs from Ryan Roberts in the series "Swap-out mTHP without splitting". - Kefeng Wang has significantly optimized the handling of arm64's permission page faults in the series "arch/mm/fault: accelerate pagefault when badaccess" "mm: remove arch's private VM_FAULT_BADMAP/BADACCESS" - GUP cleanups from David Hildenbrand in "mm/gup: consistently call it GUP-fast". - hugetlb fault code cleanups from Vishal Moola in "Hugetlb fault path to use struct vm_fault". - selftests build fixes from John Hubbard in the series "Fix selftests/mm build without requiring "make headers"". - Memory tiering fixes/improvements from Ho-Ren (Jack) Chuang in the series "Improved Memory Tier Creation for CPUless NUMA Nodes". Fixes the initialization code so that migration between different memory types works as intended. - David Hildenbrand has improved follow_pte() and fixed an errant driver in the series "mm: follow_pte() improvements and acrn follow_pte() fixes". - David also did some cleanup work on large folio mapcounts in his series "mm: mapcount for large folios + page_mapcount() cleanups". - Folio conversions in KSM in Alex Shi's series "transfer page to folio in KSM". - Barry Song has added some sysfs stats for monitoring multi-size THP's in the series "mm: add per-order mTHP alloc and swpout counters". - Some zswap cleanups from Yosry Ahmed in the series "zswap same-filled and limit checking cleanups". - Matthew Wilcox has been looking at buffer_head code and found the documentation to be lacking. The series is "Improve buffer head documentation". - Multi-size THPs get more work, this time from Lance Yang. His series "mm/madvise: enhance lazyfreeing with mTHP in madvise_free" optimizes the freeing of these things. - Kemeng Shi has added more userspace-visible writeback instrumentation in the series "Improve visibility of writeback". - Kemeng Shi then sent some maintenance work on top in the series "Fix and cleanups to page-writeback". - Matthew Wilcox reduces mmap_lock traffic in the anon vma code in the series "Improve anon_vma scalability for anon VMAs". Intel's test bot reported an improbable 3x improvement in one test. - SeongJae Park adds some DAMON feature work in the series "mm/damon: add a DAMOS filter type for page granularity access recheck" "selftests/damon: add DAMOS quota goal test" - Also some maintenance work in the series "mm/damon/paddr: simplify page level access re-check for pageout" "mm/damon: misc fixes and improvements" - David Hildenbrand has disabled some known-to-fail selftests ni the series "selftests: mm: cow: flag vmsplice() hugetlb tests as XFAIL". - memcg metadata storage optimizations from Shakeel Butt in "memcg: reduce memory consumption by memcg stats". - DAX fixes and maintenance work from Vishal Verma in the series "dax/bus.c: Fixups for dax-bus locking". -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iHUEABYIAB0WIQTTMBEPP41GrTpTJgfdBJ7gKXxAjgUCZkgQYwAKCRDdBJ7gKXxA jrdKAP9WVJdpEcXxpoub/vVE0UWGtffr8foifi9bCwrQrGh5mgEAx7Yf0+d/oBZB nvA4E0DcPrUAFy144FNM0NTCb7u9vAw= =V3R/ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'mm-stable-2024-05-17-19-19' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm Pull mm updates from Andrew Morton: "The usual shower of singleton fixes and minor series all over MM, documented (hopefully adequately) in the respective changelogs.

Makefile: remove redundant tool coverage variables
Now Kbuild provides reasonable defaults for objtool, sanitizers, and profilers. Remove redundant variables. Note: This commit changes the coverage for some objects: - include arch/mips/vdso/vdso-image.o into UBSAN, GCOV, KCOV - include arch/sparc/vdso/vdso-image-*.o into UBSAN - include arch/sparc/vdso/vma.o into UBSAN - include arch/x86/entry/vdso/extable.o into KASAN, KCSAN, UBSAN, GCOV, KCOV - include arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso-image-*.o into KASAN, KCSAN, UBSAN, GCOV, KCOV - include arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso32-setup.o into KASAN, KCSAN, UBSAN, GCOV, KCOV - include arch/x86/entry/vdso/vma.o into GCOV, KCOV - include arch/x86/um/vdso/vma.o into KASAN, GCOV, KCOV I believe these are positive effects because all of them are kernel space objects.

kbuild: use $(src) instead of $(srctree)/$(src) for source directory
Kbuild conventionally uses $(obj)/ for generated files, and $(src)/ for checked-in source files. It is merely a convention without any functional difference. In fact, $(obj) and $(src) are exactly the same, as defined in scripts/Makefile.build: src := $(obj) When the kernel is built in a separate output directory, $(src) does not accurately reflect the source directory location. While Kbuild resolves this discrepancy by specifying VPATH=$(srctree) to search for source files, it does not cover all cases. For example, when adding a header search path for local headers, -I$(srctree)/$(src) is typically passed to the compiler. This introduces inconsistency between upstream and downstream Makefiles because $(src) is used instead of $(srctree)/$(src) for the latter. To address this inconsistency, this commit changes the semantics of $(src) so that it always points to the directory in the source tree. Going forward, the variables used in Makefiles will have the following meanings: $(obj) - directory in the object tree $(src) - directory in the source tree (changed by this commit) $(objtree) - the top of the kernel object tree $(srctree) - the top of the kernel source tree Consequently, $(srctree)/$(src) in upstream Makefiles need to be replaced with $(src).

printk: Remove redundant CONFIG_BASE_FULL
CONFIG_BASE_FULL is equivalent to !CONFIG_BASE_SMALL and is enabled by default: CONFIG_BASE_SMALL is the special case to take care of. So, remove CONFIG_BASE_FULL and move the config choice to CONFIG_BASE_SMALL (which defaults to 'n') For defconfigs explicitely disabling BASE_FULL, explicitely enable BASE_SMALL. For defconfigs explicitely enabling BASE_FULL, drop it as it is the default.

printk: Fix LOG_CPU_MAX_BUF_SHIFT when BASE_SMALL is enabled
LOG_CPU_MAX_BUF_SHIFT default value depends on BASE_SMALL:
config LOG_CPU_MAX_BUF_SHIFT
default 12 if !BASE_SMALL
default 0 if BASE_SMALL
But, BASE_SMALL is a config of type int and "!BASE_SMALL" is always
evaluated to true whatever is the value of BASE_SMALL.
This patch fixes this by using the correct conditional operator for int
type : BASE_SMALL != 0.
Note: This changes CONFIG_LOG_CPU_MAX_BUF_SHIFT=12 to
CONFIG_LOG_CPU_MAX_BUF_SHIFT=0 for BASE_SMALL defconfigs, but that will
not be a big impact due to this code in kernel/printk/printk.c:
/* by default this will only continue through for large > 64 CPUs */
if (cpu_extra <= __LOG_BUF_LEN / 2)
return;
Systems using CONFIG_BASE_SMALL and having 64+ CPUs should be quite
rare.

init: replace deprecated strncpy with strscpy_pad
strncpy() is deprecated for use on NUL-terminated destination strings [1] and as such we should prefer more robust and less ambiguous string interfaces. data_page wants to be NUL-terminated and NUL-padded, use strscpy_pad to provide both of these. data_page no longer awkwardly relies on init_mount to perform its NUL-termination, although that sanity check is left unchanged.

initrd: remove the now superfluous sentinel element from ctl_table array
This commit comes at the tail end of a greater effort to remove the empty elements at the end of the ctl_table arrays (sentinels) which will reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run time memory bloat by ~64 bytes per sentinel (further information Link : https://lore.kernel.org/all/ZO5Yx5JFogGi%2FcBo@bombadil.infradead.org/) Remove sentinel from kern_do_mounts_initrd_table.

NUMA: early use of cpu_to_node() returns 0 instead of the correct node id
During the kernel booting, the generic cpu_to_node() is called too early in arm64, powerpc and riscv when CONFIG_NUMA is enabled. There are at least four places in the common code where the generic cpu_to_node() is called before it is initialized: 1.) early_trace_init() in kernel/trace/trace.c 2.) sched_init() in kernel/sched/core.c 3.) init_sched_fair_class() in kernel/sched/fair.c 4.) workqueue_init_early() in kernel/workqueue.c This will harm performance since there is an increase in off node accesses. In order to fix the bug, the patch introduces early_numa_node_init() which is called after smp_prepare_boot_cpu() in start_kernel. early_numa_node_init will initialize the "numa_node" as soon as the early_cpu_to_node() is ready, before the cpu_to_node() is called at the first time.

bootconfig: do not put quotes on cmdline items unless necessary
When trying to migrate to using bootconfig to embed the kernel's and PID1's command line with the kernel image itself, and so allowing changing that without modifying the bootloader, I noticed that /proc/cmdline changed from e.g. console=ttymxc0,115200n8 cma=128M quiet -- --log-level=notice to console="ttymxc0,115200n8" cma="128M" quiet -- --log-level="notice" The kernel parameters are parsed just fine, and the quotes are indeed stripped from the actual argv[] given to PID1. However, the quoting doesn't really serve any purpose and looks excessive, and might confuse some (naive) userspace tool trying to parse /proc/cmdline. So do not quote the value unless it contains whitespace.

sched/cpufreq: Rename arch_update_thermal_pressure() => arch_update_hw_pressure()
Now that cpufreq provides a pressure value to the scheduler, rename arch_update_thermal_pressure into HW pressure to reflect that it returns a pressure applied by HW (i.e. with a high frequency change) and not always related to thermal mitigation but also generated by max current limitation as an example. Such high frequency signal needs filtering to be smoothed and provide an value that reflects the average available capacity into the scheduler time scale.

rust: make mutually exclusive with CFI_CLANG
On RISC-V and arm64, and presumably x86, if CFI_CLANG is enabled,
loading a rust module will trigger a kernel panic. Support for
sanitisers, including kcfi (CFI_CLANG), is in the works, but for now
they're nightly-only options in rustc. Make RUST depend on !CFI_CLANG
to prevent configuring a kernel without symmetrical support for kfi.
[ Matthew Maurer writes [1]:
This patch is fine by me - the last patch needed for KCFI to be
functional in Rust just landed upstream last night, so we should
revisit this (in the form of enabling it) once we move to
`rustc-1.79.0` or later.
Ramon de C Valle also gave feedback [2] on the status of KCFI for
Rust and created a tracking issue [3] in upstream Rust. - Miguel ]

We allocate memory of size 'xlen + strlen(boot_command_line) + 1' for static_command_line, but the strings copied into static_command_line are extra_command_line and command_line, rather than extra_command_line and boot_command_line. When strlen(command_line) > strlen(boot_command_line), static_command_line will overflow.

If the "bootconfig" kernel command-line argument was specified or if the kernel was built with CONFIG_BOOT_CONFIG_FORCE, but if there are no embedded kernel parameter, omit the "# Parameters from bootloader:" comment from the /proc/bootconfig file.

init: open output files from cpio unpacking with O_LARGEFILE
If a member of a cpio archive for an initrd or initrams is larger than 2Gb, we'll eventually fail to write to that file when we get to that limit, unless O_LARGEFILE is set. The problem can be seen with this recipe, assuming that BLK_DEV_RAM is not configured: cd /tmp dd if=/dev/zero of=BIGFILE bs=1048576 count=2200 echo BIGFILE | cpio -o -H newc -R root:root > initrd.img kexec -l /boot/vmlinuz-$(uname -r) --initrd=initrd.img --reuse-cmdline kexec -e The console will show 'Initramfs unpacking failed: write error'.

rust: don't select CONSTRUCTORS
This was originally part of commit 4b9a68f2e59a0 ("rust: add support for
static synchronisation primitives") from the old Rust branch, which used
module constructors to initialize globals containing various
synchronisation primitives with pin-init. That commit has never been
upstreamed, but the `select CONSTRUCTORS` statement ended up being
included in the patch that initially added Rust support to the Linux
Kernel.
We are not using module constructors, so let's remove the select.

sched/fair: Check if a task has a fitting CPU when updating misfit
If a misfit task is affined to a subset of the possible CPUs, we need to verify that one of these CPUs can fit it. Otherwise the load balancer code will continuously trigger needlessly leading the balance_interval to increase in return and eventually end up with a situation where real imbalances take a long time to address because of this impossible imbalance situation. This can happen in Android world where it's common for background tasks to be restricted to little cores. Similarly if we can't fit the biggest core, triggering misfit is pointless as it is the best we can ever get on this system. To be able to detect that; we use asym_cap_list to iterate through capacities in the system to see if the task is able to run at a higher capacity level based on its p->cpus_ptr. We do that when the affinity change, a fair task is forked, or when a task switched to fair policy. We store the max_allowed_capacity in task_struct to allow for cheap comparison in the fast path. Improve check_misfit_status() function by removing redundant checks. misfit_task_load will be 0 if the task can't move to a bigger CPU. And nohz_balancer_kick() already checks for cpu_check_capacity() before calling check_misfit_status(). Test: ===== Add trace_printk("balance_interval = %lu\n", interval) in get_sd_balance_interval(). run if [ "$MASK" != "0" ]; then adb shell "taskset -a $MASK cat /dev/zero > /dev/null" fi sleep 10 // parse ftrace buffer counting the occurrence of each valaue Where MASK is either: * 0: no busy task running * 1: busy task is pinned to 1 cpu; handled today to not cause misfit * f: busy task pinned to little cores, simulates busy background task, demonstrates the problem to be fixed Results: ======== Note how occurrence of balance_interval = 128 overshoots for MASK = f.

jump_label,module: Don't alloc static_key_mod for __ro_after_init keys
When a static_key is marked ro_after_init, its state will never change (after init), therefore jump_label_update() will never need to iterate the entries, and thus module load won't actually need to track this -- avoiding the static_key::next write. Therefore, mark these keys such that jump_label_add_module() might recognise them and avoid the modification. Use the special state: 'static_key_linked(key) && !static_key_mod(key)' to denote such keys. jump_label_add_module() does not exist under CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL=n, so the newly-introduced jump_label_init_ro() can be defined as a nop for that configuration. [ mingo: Renamed jump_label_ro() to jump_label_init_ro() ] Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Valentin Schneider <vschneid@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Acked-by: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@kernel.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240313180106.2917308-2-vschneid@redhat.com |

- Sumanth Korikkar has taught s390 to allocate hotplug-time page frames
from hotplugged memory rather than only from main memory. Series "implement "memmap on memory" feature on s390". - More folio conversions from Matthew Wilcox in the series "Convert memcontrol charge moving to use folios" "mm: convert mm counter to take a folio" - Chengming Zhou has optimized zswap's rbtree locking, providing significant reductions in system time and modest but measurable reductions in overall runtimes. The series is "mm/zswap: optimize the scalability of zswap rb-tree". - Chengming Zhou has also provided the series "mm/zswap: optimize zswap lru list" which provides measurable runtime benefits in some swap-intensive situations. - And Chengming Zhou further optimizes zswap in the series "mm/zswap: optimize for dynamic zswap_pools". Measured improvements are modest. - zswap cleanups and simplifications from Yosry Ahmed in the series "mm: zswap: simplify zswap_swapoff()". - In the series "Add DAX ABI for memmap_on_memory", Vishal Verma has contributed several DAX cleanups as well as adding a sysfs tunable to control the memmap_on_memory setting when the dax device is hotplugged as system memory. - Johannes Weiner has added the large series "mm: zswap: cleanups", which does that. - More DAMON work from SeongJae Park in the series "mm/damon: make DAMON debugfs interface deprecation unignorable" "selftests/damon: add more tests for core functionalities and corner cases" "Docs/mm/damon: misc readability improvements" "mm/damon: let DAMOS feeds and tame/auto-tune itself" - In the series "mm/mempolicy: weighted interleave mempolicy and sysfs extension" Rakie Kim has developed a new mempolicy interleaving policy wherein we allocate memory across nodes in a weighted fashion rather than uniformly. This is beneficial in heterogeneous memory environments appearing with CXL. - Christophe Leroy has contributed some cleanup and consolidation work against the ARM pagetable dumping code in the series "mm: ptdump: Refactor CONFIG_DEBUG_WX and check_wx_pages debugfs attribute". - Luis Chamberlain has added some additional xarray selftesting in the series "test_xarray: advanced API multi-index tests". - Muhammad Usama Anjum has reworked the selftest code to make its human-readable output conform to the TAP ("Test Anything Protocol") format. Amongst other things, this opens up the use of third-party tools to parse and process out selftesting results. - Ryan Roberts has added fork()-time PTE batching of THP ptes in the series "mm/memory: optimize fork() with PTE-mapped THP". Mainly targeted at arm64, this significantly speeds up fork() when the process has a large number of pte-mapped folios. - David Hildenbrand also gets in on the THP pte batching game in his series "mm/memory: optimize unmap/zap with PTE-mapped THP". It implements batching during munmap() and other pte teardown situations. The microbenchmark improvements are nice. - And in the series "Transparent Contiguous PTEs for User Mappings" Ryan Roberts further utilizes arm's pte's contiguous bit ("contpte mappings"). Kernel build times on arm64 improved nicely. Ryan's series "Address some contpte nits" provides some followup work. - In the series "mm/hugetlb: Restore the reservation" Breno Leitao has fixed an obscure hugetlb race which was causing unnecessary page faults. He has also added a reproducer under the selftest code. - In the series "selftests/mm: Output cleanups for the compaction test", Mark Brown did what the title claims. - Kinsey Ho has added the series "mm/mglru: code cleanup and refactoring". - Even more zswap material from Nhat Pham. The series "fix and extend zswap kselftests" does as claimed. - In the series "Introduce cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() to fix DAX regression" Mathieu Desnoyers has cleaned up and fixed rather a mess in our handling of DAX on archiecctures which have virtually aliasing data caches. The arm architecture is the main beneficiary. - Lokesh Gidra's series "per-vma locks in userfaultfd" provides dramatic improvements in worst-case mmap_lock hold times during certain userfaultfd operations. - Some page_owner enhancements and maintenance work from Oscar Salvador in his series "page_owner: print stacks and their outstanding allocations" "page_owner: Fixup and cleanup" - Uladzislau Rezki has contributed some vmalloc scalability improvements in his series "Mitigate a vmap lock contention". It realizes a 12x improvement for a certain microbenchmark. - Some kexec/crash cleanup work from Baoquan He in the series "Split crash out from kexec and clean up related config items". - Some zsmalloc maintenance work from Chengming Zhou in the series "mm/zsmalloc: fix and optimize objects/page migration" "mm/zsmalloc: some cleanup for get/set_zspage_mapping()" - Zi Yan has taught the MM to perform compaction on folios larger than order=0. This a step along the path to implementaton of the merging of large anonymous folios. The series is named "Enable >0 order folio memory compaction". - Christoph Hellwig has done quite a lot of cleanup work in the pagecache writeback code in his series "convert write_cache_pages() to an iterator". - Some modest hugetlb cleanups and speedups in Vishal Moola's series "Handle hugetlb faults under the VMA lock". - Zi Yan has changed the page splitting code so we can split huge pages into sizes other than order-0 to better utilize large folios. The series is named "Split a folio to any lower order folios". - David Hildenbrand has contributed the series "mm: remove total_mapcount()", a cleanup. - Matthew Wilcox has sought to improve the performance of bulk memory freeing in his series "Rearrange batched folio freeing". - Gang Li's series "hugetlb: parallelize hugetlb page init on boot" provides large improvements in bootup times on large machines which are configured to use large numbers of hugetlb pages. - Matthew Wilcox's series "PageFlags cleanups" does that. - Qi Zheng's series "minor fixes and supplement for ptdesc" does that also. S390 is affected. - Cleanups to our pagemap utility functions from Peter Xu in his series "mm/treewide: Replace pXd_large() with pXd_leaf()". - Nico Pache has fixed a few things with our hugepage selftests in his series "selftests/mm: Improve Hugepage Test Handling in MM Selftests". - Also, of course, many singleton patches to many things.

Modules changes for v6.9-rc1
Christophe Leroy did most of the work on this release, first with a few cleanups on CONFIG_STRICT_KERNEL_RWX and ending with error handling for when set_memory_XX() can fail. This is part of a larger effort to clean up all these callers which can fail, modules is just part of it. This has been sitting on linux-next for about a month without issues. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQJGBAABCgAwFiEENnNq2KuOejlQLZofziMdCjCSiKcFAmXxArkSHG1jZ3JvZkBr ZXJuZWwub3JnAAoJEM4jHQowkoin5VoQALp/Fbv3uDbp/vF+9c+qBNaJCwdiDXto R7ns4qjjqs11OpZF3to4WzwScKUESbwStXY1hkjQqRED3vN49SmDVdS7P+Aa5ixu SLEMIgD0qJp8aM+SWyejLEY2vCf+tvK81Cb7/HdjAsH0UWblb/mPzbULUCbKi/P5 qKU+UO0Ojx3Zl9RXUo81dDhbJzhmjBbsxYRLiOaMbWemEh0DO0bqI+8LLq4rdQX1 dnRCTeHZOZNCwTauqV0NY5ZGNQayJguc/+sK127JSLlxvllGC9n8CVQVOCxUK5oM SGv3lPK8uwanYuX+PLJGMcbdk8uzD4WGwQVI6A71S4Uv4Y5TO6Tph/ZsViQc+0hE fdoGmoLV/SaFVzSm5u3E4j6i4nRb8uRGWD2dzCgG7POyjxSu7LLBSVG9eeJNjuOJ Dkdvi2hBlyGQiYtKeS29EXfIU4YF7eQs14Js7dXkIiEuiz94gpzHfJD07e+hg7o+ 51f6sB5DQ6hewkmnCqayuXxPsW2fF7a8x5Ce+iTrde9n5lF7ks5wl8JCaliWtYax GLwlwLie65yJz9qoirU0VmkFtYd7gJIhHsYdGYK8VHtHb0fdWy9XNO0rc/71QWWb 3QW2i9PaVB4MoeegOks7pMX/m8YqqqLQ91Es9/5o0GqACt8Nr4/mRkpfH2+kxWQh kkwS4W4fdXwK =Z9SO -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'modules-6.9-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mcgrof/linux Pull modules updates from Luis Chamberlain: "Christophe Leroy did most of the work on this release, first with a few cleanups on CONFIG_STRICT_KERNEL_RWX and ending with error handling for when set_memory_XX() can fail.

Networking changes for 6.9.
Core & protocols ---------------- - Large effort by Eric to lower rtnl_lock pressure and remove locks: - Make commonly used parts of rtnetlink (address, route dumps etc.) lockless, protected by RCU instead of rtnl_lock. - Add a netns exit callback which already holds rtnl_lock, allowing netns exit to take rtnl_lock once in the core instead of once for each driver / callback. - Remove locks / serialization in the socket diag interface. - Remove 6 calls to synchronize_rcu() while holding rtnl_lock. - Remove the dev_base_lock, depend on RCU where necessary. - Support busy polling on a per-epoll context basis. Poll length and budget parameters can be set independently of system defaults. - Introduce struct net_hotdata, to make sure read-mostly global config variables fit in as few cache lines as possible. - Add optional per-nexthop statistics to ease monitoring / debug of ECMP imbalance problems. - Support TCP_NOTSENT_LOWAT in MPTCP. - Ensure that IPv6 temporary addresses' preferred lifetimes are long enough, compared to other configured lifetimes, and at least 2 sec. - Support forwarding of ICMP Error messages in IPSec, per RFC 4301. - Add support for the independent control state machine for bonding per IEEE 802.1AX-2008 5.4.15 in addition to the existing coupled control state machine. - Add "network ID" to MCTP socket APIs to support hosts with multiple disjoint MCTP networks. - Re-use the mono_delivery_time skbuff bit for packets which user space wants to be sent at a specified time. Maintain the timing information while traversing veth links, bridge etc. - Take advantage of MSG_SPLICE_PAGES for RxRPC DATA and ACK packets. - Simplify many places iterating over netdevs by using an xarray instead of a hash table walk (hash table remains in place, for use on fastpaths). - Speed up scanning for expired routes by keeping a dedicated list. - Speed up "generic" XDP by trying harder to avoid large allocations. - Support attaching arbitrary metadata to netconsole messages. Things we sprinkled into general kernel code -------------------------------------------- - Enforce VM_IOREMAP flag and range in ioremap_page_range and introduce VM_SPARSE kind and vm_area_[un]map_pages (used by bpf_arena). - Rework selftest harness to enable the use of the full range of ksft exit code (pass, fail, skip, xfail, xpass). Netfilter --------- - Allow userspace to define a table that is exclusively owned by a daemon (via netlink socket aliveness) without auto-removing this table when the userspace program exits. Such table gets marked as orphaned and a restarting management daemon can re-attach/regain ownership. - Speed up element insertions to nftables' concatenated-ranges set type. Compact a few related data structures. BPF --- - Add BPF token support for delegating a subset of BPF subsystem functionality from privileged system-wide daemons such as systemd through special mount options for userns-bound BPF fs to a trusted & unprivileged application. - Introduce bpf_arena which is sparse shared memory region between BPF program and user space where structures inside the arena can have pointers to other areas of the arena, and pointers work seamlessly for both user-space programs and BPF programs. - Introduce may_goto instruction that is a contract between the verifier and the program. The verifier allows the program to loop assuming it's behaving well, but reserves the right to terminate it. - Extend the BPF verifier to enable static subprog calls in spin lock critical sections. - Support registration of struct_ops types from modules which helps projects like fuse-bpf that seeks to implement a new struct_ops type. - Add support for retrieval of cookies for perf/kprobe multi links. - Support arbitrary TCP SYN cookie generation / validation in the TC layer with BPF to allow creating SYN flood handling in BPF firewalls. - Add code generation to inline the bpf_kptr_xchg() helper which improves performance when stashing/popping the allocated BPF objects. Wireless -------- - Add SPP (signaling and payload protected) AMSDU support. - Support wider bandwidth OFDMA, as required for EHT operation. Driver API ---------- - Major overhaul of the Energy Efficient Ethernet internals to support new link modes (2.5GE, 5GE), share more code between drivers (especially those using phylib), and encourage more uniform behavior. Convert and clean up drivers. - Define an API for querying per netdev queue statistics from drivers. - IPSec: account in global stats for fully offloaded sessions. - Create a concept of Ethernet PHY Packages at the Device Tree level, to allow parameterizing the existing PHY package code. - Enable Rx hashing (RSS) on GTP protocol fields. Misc ---- - Improvements and refactoring all over networking selftests. - Create uniform module aliases for TC classifiers, actions, and packet schedulers to simplify creating modprobe policies. - Address all missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() warnings in networking. - Extend the Netlink descriptions in YAML to cover message encapsulation or "Netlink polymorphism", where interpretation of nested attributes depends on link type, classifier type or some other "class type". Drivers ------- - Ethernet high-speed NICs: - Add a new driver for Marvell's Octeon PCI Endpoint NIC VF. - Intel (100G, ice, idpf): - support E825-C devices - nVidia/Mellanox: - support devices with one port and multiple PCIe links - Broadcom (bnxt): - support n-tuple filters - support configuring the RSS key - Wangxun (ngbe/txgbe): - implement irq_domain for TXGBE's sub-interrupts - Pensando/AMD: - support XDP - optimize queue submission and wakeup handling (+17% bps) - optimize struct layout, saving 28% of memory on queues - Ethernet NICs embedded and virtual: - Google cloud vNIC: - refactor driver to perform memory allocations for new queue config before stopping and freeing the old queue memory - Synopsys (stmmac): - obey queueMaxSDU and implement counters required by 802.1Qbv - Renesas (ravb): - support packet checksum offload - suspend to RAM and runtime PM support - Ethernet switches: - nVidia/Mellanox: - support for nexthop group statistics - Microchip: - ksz8: implement PHY loopback - add support for KSZ8567, a 7-port 10/100Mbps switch - PTP: - New driver for RENESAS FemtoClock3 Wireless clock generator. - Support OCP PTP cards designed and built by Adva. - CAN: - Support recvmsg() flags for own, local and remote traffic on CAN BCM sockets. - Support for esd GmbH PCIe/402 CAN device family. - m_can: - Rx/Tx submission coalescing - wake on frame Rx - WiFi: - Intel (iwlwifi): - enable signaling and payload protected A-MSDUs - support wider-bandwidth OFDMA - support for new devices - bump FW API to 89 for AX devices; 90 for BZ/SC devices - MediaTek (mt76): - mt7915: newer ADIE version support - mt7925: radio temperature sensor support - Qualcomm (ath11k): - support 6 GHz station power modes: Low Power Indoor (LPI), Standard Power) SP and Very Low Power (VLP) - QCA6390 & WCN6855: support 2 concurrent station interfaces - QCA2066 support - Qualcomm (ath12k): - refactoring in preparation for Multi-Link Operation (MLO) support - 1024 Block Ack window size support - firmware-2.bin support - support having multiple identical PCI devices (firmware needs to have ATH12K_FW_FEATURE_MULTI_QRTR_ID) - QCN9274: support split-PHY devices - WCN7850: enable Power Save Mode in station mode - WCN7850: P2P support - RealTek: - rtw88: support for more rtw8811cu and rtw8821cu devices - rtw89: support SCAN_RANDOM_SN and SET_SCAN_DWELL - rtlwifi: speed up USB firmware initialization - rtwl8xxxu: - RTL8188F: concurrent interface support - Channel Switch Announcement (CSA) support in AP mode - Broadcom (brcmfmac): - per-vendor feature support - per-vendor SAE password setup - DMI nvram filename quirk for ACEPC W5 Pro Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAABCAAdFiEE6jPA+I1ugmIBA4hXMUZtbf5SIrsFAmXv0mgACgkQMUZtbf5S IrtgMxAAuRd+WJW++SENr4KxIWhYO1q6Xcxnai43wrNkan9swD24icG8TYALt4f3 yoT6idQvWReAb5JNlh9rUQz8R7E0nJXlvEFn5MtJwcthx2C6wFo/XkJlddlRrT+j c2xGILwLjRhW65LaC0MZ2ECbEERkFz8xcGfK2SWzUgh6KYvPjcRfKFxugpM7xOQK P/Wnqhs4fVRS/Mj/bCcXcO+yhwC121Q3qVeQVjGS0AzEC65hAW87a/kc2BfgcegD EyI9R7mf6criQwX+0awubjfoIdr4oW/8oDVNvUDczkJkbaEVaLMQk9P5x/0XnnVS UHUchWXyI80Q8Rj12uN1/I0h3WtwNQnCRBuLSmtm6GLfCAwbLvp2nGWDnaXiqryW DVKUIHGvqPKjkOOMOVfSvfB3LvkS3xsFVVYiQBQCn0YSs/gtu4CoF2Nty9CiLPbK tTuxUnLdPDZDxU//l0VArZmP8p2JM7XQGJ+JH8GFH4SBTyBR23e0iyPSoyaxjnYn RReDnHMVsrS1i7GPhbqDJWn+uqMSs7N149i0XmmyeqwQHUVSJN3J2BApP2nCaDfy H2lTuYly5FfEezt61NvCE4qr/VsWeEjm1fYlFQ9dFn4pGn+HghyCpw+xD1ZN56DN lujemau5B3kk1UTtAT4ypPqvuqjkRFqpNV2LzsJSk/Js+hApw8Y= =oY52 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'net-next-6.9' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski: "Core & protocols: - Large effort by Eric to lower rtnl_lock pressure and remove locks: - Make commonly used parts of rtnetlink (address, route dumps etc) lockless, protected by RCU instead of rtnl_lock. - Add a netns exit callback which already holds rtnl_lock, allowing netns exit to take rtnl_lock once in the core instead of once for each driver / callback. - Remove locks / serialization in the socket diag interface. - Remove 6 calls to synchronize_rcu() while holding rtnl_lock. - Remove the dev_base_lock, depend on RCU where necessary. - Support busy polling on a per-epoll context basis.

Rework of APIC enumeration and topology evaluation:
The current implementation has a couple of shortcomings: - It fails to handle hybrid systems correctly. - The APIC registration code which handles CPU number assignents is in the middle of the APIC code and detached from the topology evaluation. - The various mechanisms which enumerate APICs, ACPI, MPPARSE and guest specific ones, tweak global variables as they see fit or in case of XENPV just hack around the generic mechanisms completely. - The CPUID topology evaluation code is sprinkled all over the vendor code and reevaluates global variables on every hotplug operation. - There is no way to analyze topology on the boot CPU before bringing up the APs. This causes problems for infrastructure like PERF which needs to size certain aspects upfront or could be simplified if that would be possible. - The APIC admission and CPU number association logic is incomprehensible and overly complex and needs to be kept around after boot instead of completing this right after the APIC enumeration. This update addresses these shortcomings with the following changes: - Rework the CPUID evaluation code so it is common for all vendors and provides information about the APIC ID segments in a uniform way independent of the number of segments (Thread, Core, Module, ..., Die, Package) so that this information can be computed instead of rewriting global variables of dubious value over and over. - A few cleanups and simplifcations of the APIC, IO/APIC and related interfaces to prepare for the topology evaluation changes. - Seperation of the parser stages so the early evaluation which tries to find the APIC address can be seperately overridden from the late evaluation which enumerates and registers the local APIC as further preparation for sanitizing the topology evaluation. - A new registration and admission logic which - encapsulates the inner workings so that parsers and guest logic cannot longer fiddle in it - uses the APIC ID segments to build topology bitmaps at registration time - provides a sane admission logic - allows to detect the crash kernel case, where CPU0 does not run on the real BSP, automatically. This is required to prevent sending INIT/SIPI sequences to the real BSP which would reset the whole machine. This was so far handled by a tedious command line parameter, which does not even work in nested crash scenarios. - Associates CPU number after the enumeration completed and prevents the late registration of APICs, which was somehow tolerated before. - Converting all parsers and guest enumeration mechanisms over to the new interfaces. This allows to get rid of all global variable tweaking from the parsers and enumeration mechanisms and sanitizes the XEN[PV] handling so it can use CPUID evaluation for the first time. - Mopping up existing sins by taking the information from the APIC ID segment bitmaps. This evaluates hybrid systems correctly on the boot CPU and allows for cleanups and fixes in the related drivers, e.g. PERF. The series has been extensively tested and the minimal late fallout due to a broken ACPI/MADT table has been addressed by tightening the admission logic further. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQJHBAABCgAxFiEEQp8+kY+LLUocC4bMphj1TA10mKEFAmXuDawTHHRnbHhAbGlu dXRyb25peC5kZQAKCRCmGPVMDXSYobE7EACngItF+UOTCoCV6och2lL6HVoIdZD1 Y5oaAgD+WzQSz/lBkH6b9kZSyvjlMo6O9GlnGX+ii+VUnijDp4VrspnxbJDaKEq3 gOfsSg2Tk+ps50HqMcZawjjBYJb/TmvKwEV2XuzIBPOONSWLNjvN7nBSzLl1eF9/ 8uCE39/8aB5K3GXryRyXdo2uLu6eHTVC0aYFu/kLX1/BbVqF5NMD3sz9E9w8+D/U MIIMEMXy4Fn+P2o0vVH+gjUlwI76mJbB1WqCX/sqbVacXrjl3KfNJRiisTFIOOYV 8o+rIV0ef5X9xmZqtOXAdyZQzj++Gwmz9+4TU1M4YHtS7UkYn6AluOjvVekCc+gc qXE3WhqKfCK2/carRMLQxAMxNeRylkZG+Wuv1Qtyjpe9JX2dTqtems0f4DMp9DKf b7InO3z39kJanpqcUG2Sx+GWanetfnX+0Ho2Moqu6Xi+2ATr1PfMG/Wyr5/WWOfV qApaHSTwa+J43mSzP6BsXngEv085EHSGM5tPe7u46MCYFqB21+bMl+qH82KjMkOe c6uZovFQMmX2WBlqJSYGVCH+Jhgvqq8HFeRs19Hd4enOt3e6LE3E74RBVD1AyfLV 1b/m8tYB/o871ZlEZwDCGVrV/LNnA7PxmFpq5ZHLpUt39g2/V0RH1puBVz1e97pU YsTT7hBCUYzgjQ== =/5oR -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'x86-apic-2024-03-10' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull x86 APIC updates from Thomas Gleixner: "Rework of APIC enumeration and topology evaluation.

This update addresses these shortcomings with the following changes: - Rework the CPUID evaluation code so it is common for all vendors and provides information about the APIC ID segments in a uniform way independent of the number of segments (Thread, Core, Module, ..., Die, Package) so that this information can be computed instead of rewriting global variables of dubious value over and over. - A few cleanups and simplifcations of the APIC, IO/APIC and related interfaces to prepare for the topology evaluation changes. - Seperation of the parser stages so the early evaluation which tries to find the APIC address can be seperately overridden from the late evaluation which enumerates and registers the local APIC as further preparation for sanitizing the topology evaluation. - A new registration and admission logic which - encapsulates the inner workings so that parsers and guest logic cannot longer fiddle in it - uses the APIC ID segments to build topology bitmaps at registration time - provides a sane admission logic - allows to detect the crash kernel case, where CPU0 does not run on the real BSP, automatically. This is required to prevent sending INIT/SIPI sequences to the real BSP which would reset the whole machine. This was so far handled by a tedious command line parameter, which does not even work in nested crash scenarios. - Associates CPU number after the enumeration completed and prevents the late registration of APICs, which was somehow tolerated before. - Converting all parsers and guest enumeration mechanisms over to the new interfaces. This allows to get rid of all global variable tweaking from the parsers and enumeration mechanisms and sanitizes the XEN[PV] handling so it can use CPUID evaluation for the first time. - Mopping up existing sins by taking the information from the APIC ID segment bitmaps. This evaluates hybrid systems correctly on the boot CPU and allows for cleanups and fixes in the related drivers, e.g. PERF. The series has been extensively tested and the minimal late fallout due to a broken ACPI/MADT table has been addressed by tightening the admission logic further" * tag 'x86-apic-2024-03-10' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (76 commits) x86/topology: Ignore non-present APIC IDs in a present package x86/apic: Build the x86 topology enumeration functions on UP APIC builds too smp: Provide 'setup_max_cpus' definition on UP too smp: Avoid 'setup_max_cpus' namespace collision/shadowing x86/bugs: Use fixed addressing for VERW operand x86/cpu/topology: Get rid of cpuinfo::x86_max_cores x86/cpu/topology: Provide __num_[cores|threads]_per_package x86/cpu/topology: Rename topology_max_die_per_package() x86/cpu/topology: Rename smp_num_siblings x86/cpu/topology: Retrieve cores per package from topology bitmaps x86/cpu/topology: Use topology logical mapping mechanism x86/cpu/topology: Provide logical pkg/die mapping x86/cpu/topology: Simplify cpu_mark_primary_thread() x86/cpu/topology: Mop up primary thread mask handling x86/cpu/topology: Use topology bitmaps for sizing x86/cpu/topology: Let XEN/PV use topology from CPUID/MADT x86/xen/smp_pv: Count number of vCPUs early x86/cpu/topology: Assign hotpluggable CPUIDs during init x86/cpu/topology: Reject unknown APIC IDs on ACPI hotplug x86/topology: Add a mechanism to track topology via APIC IDs ... |

This allowed us to implement support for restricting and forbidding writes to mounted block devices. It was accompanied by converting and adding helpers to operate on bdev_handles instead of plain block devices. That was already a good step forward but ultimately it isn't necessary to have special purpose helpers for opening block devices internally that return a bdev_handle. Fundamentally, opening a block device internally should just be equivalent to opening files. So now all internal opens of block devices return files just as a userspace open would. Instead of introducing a separate indirection into bdev_open_by_*() via struct bdev_handle bdev_file_open_by_*() is made to just return a struct file. Opening and closing a block device just becomes equivalent to opening and closing a file. This all works well because internally we already have a pseudo fs for block devices and so opening block devices is simple. There's a few places where we needed to be careful such as during boot when the kernel is supposed to mount the rootfs directly without init doing it. Here we need to take care to ensure that we flush out any asynchronous file close. That's what we already do for opening, unpacking, and closing the initramfs. So nothing new here. The equivalence of opening and closing block devices to regular files is a win in and of itself. But it also has various other advantages. We can remove struct bdev_handle completely. Various low-level helpers are now private to the block layer. Other helpers were simply removable completely. A follow-up series that is already reviewed build on this and makes it possible to remove bdev->bd_inode and allows various clean ups of the buffer head code as well. All places where we stashed a bdev_handle now just stash a file and use simple accessors to get to the actual block device which was already the case for bdev_handle" * tag 'vfs-6.9.super' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs: (35 commits) block: remove bdev_handle completely block: don't rely on BLK_OPEN_RESTRICT_WRITES when yielding write access bdev: remove bdev pointer from struct bdev_handle bdev: make struct bdev_handle private to the block layer bdev: make bdev_{release, open_by_dev}() private to block layer bdev: remove bdev_open_by_path() reiserfs: port block device access to file ocfs2: port block device access to file nfs: port block device access to files jfs: port block device access to file f2fs: port block device access to files ext4: port block device access to file erofs: port device access to file btrfs: port device access to file bcachefs: port block device access to file target: port block device access to file s390: port block device access to file nvme: port block device access to file block2mtd: port device access to files bcache: port block device access to files ... |

There was no technical reason for this. We simply had no users that needed support for this. Now we do have users that need support for this. This introduces a new PIDFD_THREAD flag for pidfd_open(). If that flag is set pidfd_open() creates a pidfd that refers to a specific thread. In addition, we now allow clone() and clone3() to be called with CLONE_PIDFD | CLONE_THREAD which wasn't possible before. A pidfd that refers to an individual thread differs from a pidfd that refers to a thread-group leader: (1) Pidfds are pollable. A task may poll a pidfd and get notified when the task has exited. For thread-group leader pidfds the polling task is woken if the thread-group is empty. In other words, if the thread-group leader task exits when there are still threads alive in its thread-group the polling task will not be woken when the thread-group leader exits but rather when the last thread in the thread-group exits. For thread-specific pidfds the polling task is woken if the thread exits. (2) Passing a thread-group leader pidfd to pidfd_send_signal() will generate thread-group directed signals like kill(2) does. Passing a thread-specific pidfd to pidfd_send_signal() will generate thread-specific signals like tgkill(2) does. The default scope of the signal is thus determined by the type of the pidfd. Since use-cases exist where the default scope of the provided pidfd needs to be overriden the following flags are added to pidfd_send_signal(): - PIDFD_SIGNAL_THREAD Send a thread-specific signal. - PIDFD_SIGNAL_THREAD_GROUP Send a thread-group directed signal. - PIDFD_SIGNAL_PROCESS_GROUP Send a process-group directed signal. The scope change will only work if the struct pid is actually used for this scope. For example, in order to send a thread-group directed signal the provided pidfd must be used as a thread-group leader and similarly for PIDFD_SIGNAL_PROCESS_GROUP the struct pid must be used as a process group leader. - Move pidfds from the anonymous inode infrastructure to a tiny pseudo filesystem. This will unblock further work that we weren't able to do simply because of the very justified limitations of anonymous inodes. Moving pidfds to a tiny pseudo filesystem allows for statx on pidfds to become useful for the first time. They can now be compared by inode number which are unique for the system lifetime. Instead of stashing struct pid in file->private_data we can now stash it in inode->i_private. This makes it possible to introduce concepts that operate on a process once all file descriptors have been closed. A concrete example is kill-on-last-close. Another side-effect is that file->private_data is now freed up for per-file options for pidfds. Now, each struct pid will refer to a different inode but the same struct pid will refer to the same inode if it's opened multiple times. In contrast to now where each struct pid refers to the same inode. The tiny pseudo filesystem is not visible anywhere in userspace exactly like e.g., pipefs and sockfs. There's no lookup, there's no complex inode operations, nothing. Dentries and inodes are always deleted when the last pidfd is closed. We allocate a new inode and dentry for each struct pid and we reuse that inode and dentry for all pidfds that refer to the same struct pid. The code is entirely optional and fairly small. If it's not selected we fallback to anonymous inodes. Heavily inspired by nsfs. The dentry and inode allocation mechanism is moved into generic infrastructure that is now shared between nsfs and pidfs. The path_from_stashed() helper must be provided with a stashing location, an inode number, a mount, and the private data that is supposed to be used and it will provide a path that can be passed to dentry_open(). The helper will try retrieve an existing dentry from the provided stashing location. If a valid dentry is found it is reused. If not a new one is allocated and we try to stash it in the provided location. If this fails we retry until we either find an existing dentry or the newly allocated dentry could be stashed. Subsequent openers of the same namespace or task are then able to reuse it. - Currently it is only possible to get notified when a task has exited, i.e., become a zombie and userspace gets notified with EPOLLIN. We now also support waiting until the task has been reaped, notifying userspace with EPOLLHUP. - Ensure that ESRCH is reported for getfd if a task is exiting instead of the confusing EBADF. - Various smaller cleanups to pidfd functions. * tag 'vfs-6.9.pidfd' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs: (23 commits) libfs: improve path_from_stashed() libfs: add stashed_dentry_prune() libfs: improve path_from_stashed() helper pidfs: convert to path_from_stashed() helper nsfs: convert to path_from_stashed() helper libfs: add path_from_stashed() pidfd: add pidfs pidfd: move struct pidfd_fops pidfd: allow to override signal scope in pidfd_send_signal() pidfd: change pidfd_send_signal() to respect PIDFD_THREAD signal: fill in si_code in prepare_kill_siginfo() selftests: add ESRCH tests for pidfd_getfd() pidfd: getfd should always report ESRCH if a task is exiting pidfd: clone: allow CLONE_THREAD | CLONE_PIDFD together pidfd: exit: kill the no longer used thread_group_exited() pidfd: change do_notify_pidfd() to use __wake_up(poll_to_key(EPOLLIN)) pid: kill the obsolete PIDTYPE_PID code in transfer_pid() pidfd: kill the no longer needed do_notify_pidfd() in de_thread() pidfd_poll: report POLLHUP when pid_task() == NULL pidfd: implement PIDFD_THREAD flag for pidfd_open() ... |

Features: - Support idmapped mounts for hugetlbfs. - Add RWF_NOAPPEND flag for pwritev2(). This allows us to fix a bug where the passed offset is ignored if the file is O_APPEND. The new flag allows a caller to enforce that the offset is honored to conform to posix even if the file was opened in append mode. - Move i_mmap_rwsem in struct address_space to avoid false sharing between i_mmap and i_mmap_rwsem. - Convert efs, qnx4, and coda to use the new mount api. - Add a generic is_dot_dotdot() helper that's used by various filesystems and the VFS code instead of open-coding it multiple times. - Recently we've added stable offsets which allows stable ordering when iterating directories exported through NFS on e.g., tmpfs filesystems. Originally an xarray was used for the offset map but that caused slab fragmentation issues over time. This switches the offset map to the maple tree which has a dense mode that handles this scenario a lot better. Includes tests. - Finally merge the case-insensitive improvement series Gabriel has been working on for a long time. This cleanly propagates case insensitive operations through ->s_d_op which in turn allows us to remove the quite ugly generic_set_encrypted_ci_d_ops() operations. It also improves performance by trying a case-sensitive comparison first and then fallback to case-insensitive lookup if that fails. This also fixes a bug where overlayfs would be able to be mounted over a case insensitive directory which would lead to all sort of odd behaviors. Cleanups: - Make file_dentry() a simple accessor now that ->d_real() is simplified because of the backing file work we did the last two cycles. - Use the dedicated file_mnt_idmap helper in ntfs3. - Use smp_load_acquire/store_release() in the i_size_read/write helpers and thus remove the hack to handle i_size reads in the filemap code. - The SLAB_MEM_SPREAD is a nop now. Remove it from various places in fs/ - It's no longer necessary to perform a second built-in initramfs unpack call because we retain the contents of the previous extraction. Remove it. - Now that we have removed various allocators kfree_rcu() always works with kmem caches and kmalloc(). So simplify various places that only use an rcu callback in order to handle the kmem cache case. - Convert the pipe code to use a lockdep comparison function instead of open-coding the nesting making lockdep validation easier. - Move code into fs-writeback.c that was located in a header but can be made static as it's only used in that one file. - Rewrite the alignment checking iterators for iovec and bvec to be easier to read, and also significantly more compact in terms of generated code. This saves 270 bytes of text on x86-64 (with clang-18) and 224 bytes on arm64 (with gcc-13). In profiles it also saves a bit of time for the same workload. - Switch various places to use KMEM_CACHE instead of kmem_cache_create(). - Use inode_set_ctime_to_ts() in inode_set_ctime_current() - Use kzalloc() in name_to_handle_at() to avoid kernel infoleak. - Various smaller cleanups for eventfds. Fixes: - Fix various comments and typos, and unneeded initializations. - Fix stack allocation hack for clang in the select code. - Improve dump_mapping() debug code on a best-effort basis. - Fix build errors in various selftests. - Avoid wrap-around instrumentation in various places. - Don't allow user namespaces without an idmapping to be used for idmapped mounts. - Fix sysv sb_read() call. - Fix fallback implementation of the get_name() export operation" * tag 'vfs-6.9.misc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs: (70 commits) hugetlbfs: support idmapped mounts qnx4: convert qnx4 to use the new mount api fs: use inode_set_ctime_to_ts to set inode ctime to current time libfs: Drop generic_set_encrypted_ci_d_ops ubifs: Configure dentry operations at dentry-creation time f2fs: Configure dentry operations at dentry-creation time ext4: Configure dentry operations at dentry-creation time libfs: Add helper to choose dentry operations at mount-time libfs: Merge encrypted_ci_dentry_ops and ci_dentry_ops fscrypt: Drop d_revalidate once the key is added fscrypt: Drop d_revalidate for valid dentries during lookup fscrypt: Factor out a helper to configure the lookup dentry ovl: Always reject mounting over case-insensitive directories libfs: Attempt exact-match comparison first during casefolded lookup efs: remove SLAB_MEM_SPREAD flag usage jfs: remove SLAB_MEM_SPREAD flag usage minix: remove SLAB_MEM_SPREAD flag usage openpromfs: remove SLAB_MEM_SPREAD flag usage proc: remove SLAB_MEM_SPREAD flag usage qnx6: remove SLAB_MEM_SPREAD flag usage ... |
