Here are the set of driver core and kernfs changes for 6.8-rc1.  Nothing
 major in here this release cycle, just lots of small cleanups and some
 tweaks on kernfs that in the very end, got reverted and will come back
 in a safer way next release cycle.
 
 Included in here are:
   - more driver core 'const' cleanups and fixes
   - fw_devlink=rpm is now the default behavior
   - kernfs tiny changes to remove some string functions
   - cpu handling in the driver core is updated to work better on many
     systems that add topologies and cpus after booting
   - other minor changes and cleanups
 
 All of the cpu handling patches have been acked by the respective
 maintainers and are coming in here in one series.  Everything has been
 in linux-next for a while with no reported issues.

09d1c6a80f Generic:
- Use memdup_array_user() to harden against overflow.
 
 - Unconditionally advertise KVM_CAP_DEVICE_CTRL for all architectures.
 
 - Clean up Kconfigs that all KVM architectures were selecting
 
 - New functionality around "guest_memfd", a new userspace API that
   creates an anonymous file and returns a file descriptor that refers
   to it.  guest_memfd files are bound to their owning virtual machine,
   cannot be mapped, read, or written by userspace, and cannot be resized.
   guest_memfd files do however support PUNCH_HOLE, which can be used to
   switch a memory area between guest_memfd and regular anonymous memory.
 
 - New ioctl KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES allowing userspace to specify
   per-page attributes for a given page of guest memory; right now the
   only attribute is whether the guest expects to access memory via
   guest_memfd or not, which in Confidential SVMs backed by SEV-SNP,
   TDX or ARM64 pKVM is checked by firmware or hypervisor that guarantees
   confidentiality (AMD PSP, Intel TDX module, or EL2 in the case of pKVM).
 
 x86:
 
 - Support for "software-protected VMs" that can use the new guest_memfd
   and page attributes infrastructure.  This is mostly useful for testing,
   since there is no pKVM-like infrastructure to provide a meaningfully
   reduced TCB.
 
 - Fix a relatively benign off-by-one error when splitting huge pages during
   CLEAR_DIRTY_LOG.
 
 - Fix a bug where KVM could incorrectly test-and-clear dirty bits in non-leaf
   TDP MMU SPTEs if a racing thread replaces a huge SPTE with a non-huge SPTE.
 
 - Use more generic lockdep assertions in paths that don't actually care
   about whether the caller is a reader or a writer.
 
 - let Xen guests opt out of having PV clock reported as "based on a stable TSC",
   because some of them don't expect the "TSC stable" bit (added to the pvclock
   ABI by KVM, but never set by Xen) to be set.
 
 - Revert a bogus, made-up nested SVM consistency check for TLB_CONTROL.
 
 - Advertise flush-by-ASID support for nSVM unconditionally, as KVM always
   flushes on nested transitions, i.e. always satisfies flush requests.  This
   allows running bleeding edge versions of VMware Workstation on top of KVM.
 
 - Sanity check that the CPU supports flush-by-ASID when enabling SEV support.
 
 - On AMD machines with vNMI, always rely on hardware instead of intercepting
   IRET in some cases to detect unmasking of NMIs
 
 - Support for virtualizing Linear Address Masking (LAM)
 
 - Fix a variety of vPMU bugs where KVM fail to stop/reset counters and other state
   prior to refreshing the vPMU model.
 
 - Fix a double-overflow PMU bug by tracking emulated counter events using a
   dedicated field instead of snapshotting the "previous" counter.  If the
   hardware PMC count triggers overflow that is recognized in the same VM-Exit
   that KVM manually bumps an event count, KVM would pend PMIs for both the
   hardware-triggered overflow and for KVM-triggered overflow.
 
 - Turn off KVM_WERROR by default for all configs so that it's not
   inadvertantly enabled by non-KVM developers, which can be problematic for
   subsystems that require no regressions for W=1 builds.
 
 - Advertise all of the host-supported CPUID bits that enumerate IA32_SPEC_CTRL
   "features".
 
 - Don't force a masterclock update when a vCPU synchronizes to the current TSC
   generation, as updating the masterclock can cause kvmclock's time to "jump"
   unexpectedly, e.g. when userspace hotplugs a pre-created vCPU.
 
 - Use RIP-relative address to read kvm_rebooting in the VM-Enter fault paths,
   partly as a super minor optimization, but mostly to make KVM play nice with
   position independent executable builds.
 
 - Guard KVM-on-HyperV's range-based TLB flush hooks with an #ifdef on
   CONFIG_HYPERV as a minor optimization, and to self-document the code.
 
 - Add CONFIG_KVM_HYPERV to allow disabling KVM support for HyperV "emulation"
   at build time.
 
 ARM64:
 
 - LPA2 support, adding 52bit IPA/PA capability for 4kB and 16kB
   base granule sizes. Branch shared with the arm64 tree.
 
 - Large Fine-Grained Trap rework, bringing some sanity to the
   feature, although there is more to come. This comes with
   a prefix branch shared with the arm64 tree.
 
 - Some additional Nested Virtualization groundwork, mostly
   introducing the NV2 VNCR support and retargetting the NV
   support to that version of the architecture.

 The first is small and mostly suggested-by Christian Brauner; the second
 a bit less so but it was written by an mm person (Vlastimil Babka).

Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
 "Generic:

   - Use memdup_array_user() to harden against overflow.

   - Unconditionally advertise KVM_CAP_DEVICE_CTRL for all
     architectures.

   - Clean up Kconfigs that all KVM architectures were selecting

   - New functionality around "guest_memfd", a new userspace API that
     creates an anonymous file and returns a file descriptor that refers
     to it. guest_memfd files are bound to their owning virtual machine,
     cannot be mapped, read, or written by userspace, and cannot be
     resized. guest_memfd files do however support PUNCH_HOLE, which can
     be used to switch a memory area between guest_memfd and regular
     anonymous memory.

   - New ioctl KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES allowing userspace to specify
     per-page attributes for a given page of guest memory; right now the
     only attribute is whether the guest expects to access memory via
     guest_memfd or not, which in Confidential SVMs backed by SEV-SNP,
     TDX or ARM64 pKVM is checked by firmware or hypervisor that
     guarantees confidentiality (AMD PSP, Intel TDX module, or EL2 in
     the case of pKVM).

  x86:

   - Support for "software-protected VMs" that can use the new
     guest_memfd and page attributes infrastructure. This is mostly
     useful for testing, since there is no pKVM-like infrastructure to
     provide a meaningfully reduced TCB.

   - Fix a relatively benign off-by-one error when splitting huge pages
     during CLEAR_DIRTY_LOG.

   - Fix a bug where KVM could incorrectly test-and-clear dirty bits in
     non-leaf TDP MMU SPTEs if a racing thread replaces a huge SPTE with
     a non-huge SPTE.

   - Use more generic lockdep assertions in paths that don't actually
     care about whether the caller is a reader or a writer.

   - let Xen guests opt out of having PV clock reported as "based on a
     stable TSC", because some of them don't expect the "TSC stable" bit
     (added to the pvclock ABI by KVM, but never set by Xen) to be set.

   - Revert a bogus, made-up nested SVM consistency check for
     TLB_CONTROL.

   - Advertise flush-by-ASID support for nSVM unconditionally, as KVM
     always flushes on nested transitions, i.e. always satisfies flush
     requests. This allows running bleeding edge versions of VMware
     Workstation on top of KVM.

   - Sanity check that the CPU supports flush-by-ASID when enabling SEV
     support.

   - On AMD machines with vNMI, always rely on hardware instead of
     intercepting IRET in some cases to detect unmasking of NMIs

   - Support for virtualizing Linear Address Masking (LAM)

   - Fix a variety of vPMU bugs where KVM fail to stop/reset counters
     and other state prior to refreshing the vPMU model.

   - Fix a double-overflow PMU bug by tracking emulated counter events
     using a dedicated field instead of snapshotting the "previous"
     counter. If the hardware PMC count triggers overflow that is
     recognized in the same VM-Exit that KVM manually bumps an event
     count, KVM would pend PMIs for both the hardware-triggered overflow
     and for KVM-triggered overflow.

   - Turn off KVM_WERROR by default for all configs so that it's not
     inadvertantly enabled by non-KVM developers, which can be
     problematic for subsystems that require no regressions for W=1
     builds.

   - Advertise all of the host-supported CPUID bits that enumerate
     IA32_SPEC_CTRL "features".

   - Don't force a masterclock update when a vCPU synchronizes to the
     current TSC generation, as updating the masterclock can cause
     kvmclock's time to "jump" unexpectedly, e.g. when userspace
     hotplugs a pre-created vCPU.

   - Use RIP-relative address to read kvm_rebooting in the VM-Enter
     fault paths, partly as a super minor optimization, but mostly to
     make KVM play nice with position independent executable builds.

   - Guard KVM-on-HyperV's range-based TLB flush hooks with an #ifdef on
     CONFIG_HYPERV as a minor optimization, and to self-document the
     code.

   - Add CONFIG_KVM_HYPERV to allow disabling KVM support for HyperV
     "emulation" at build time.

  ARM64:

   - LPA2 support, adding 52bit IPA/PA capability for 4kB and 16kB base
     granule sizes. Branch shared with the arm64 tree.

   - Large Fine-Grained Trap rework, bringing some sanity to the
     feature, although there is more to come. This comes with a prefix
     branch shared with the arm64 tree.

   - Some additional Nested Virtualization groundwork, mostly
     introducing the NV2 VNCR support and retargetting the NV support to
     that version of the architecture.

   - A small set of vgic fixes and associated cleanups.

  Loongarch:

   - Optimization for memslot hugepage checking

   - Cleanup and fix some HW/SW timer issues

   - Add LSX/LASX (128bit/256bit SIMD) support

  RISC-V:

   - KVM_GET_REG_LIST improvement for vector registers

   - Generate ISA extension reg_list using macros in get-reg-list
     selftest

   - Support for reporting steal time along with selftest

  s390:

   - Bugfixes

  Selftests:

   - Fix an annoying goof where the NX hugepage test prints out garbage
     instead of the magic token needed to run the test.

   - Fix build errors when a header is delete/moved due to a missing
     flag in the Makefile.

   - Detect if KVM bugged/killed a selftest's VM and print out a helpful

78de91b458 LoongArch: Use generic interface to support crashkernel=X,[high,low]
LoongArch already supports two crashkernel regions in kexec-tools, so we
can directly use the common interface to support crashkernel=X,[high,low]
after commit 0ab97169aa ("crash_core: add generic function to do
reservation").

With the help of newly changed function parse_crashkernel() and generic
reserve_crashkernel_generic(), crashkernel reservation can be simplified
by steps:

1) Add a new header file <asm/crash_core.h>, then define CRASH_ALIGN,
   CRASH_ADDR_LOW_MAX and CRASH_ADDR_HIGH_MAX and in <asm/crash_core.h>;

2) Add arch_reserve_crashkernel() to call parse_crashkernel() and
   reserve_crashkernel_generic();

3) Add ARCH_HAS_GENERIC_CRASHKERNEL_RESERVATION Kconfig in
   arch/loongarch/Kconfig.

One can reserve the crash kernel from high memory above DMA zone range
by explicitly passing "crashkernel=X,high"; or reserve a memory range
below 4G with "crashkernel=X,low". Besides, there are few rules need to
take notice:

1) "crashkernel=X,[high,low]" will be ignored if "crashkernel=size" is
   specified.
2) "crashkernel=X,low" is valid only when "crashkernel=X,high" is passed
   and there is enough memory to be allocated under 4G.
3) When allocating crashkernel above 4G and no "crashkernel=X,low" is
   specified, a 128M low memory will be allocated automatically for
   swiotlb bounce buffer.
See Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt for more information.

Following test cases have been performed as expected:
1) crashkernel=256M                          //low=256M
2) crashkernel=1G                            //low=1G
3) crashkernel=4G                            //high=4G, low=128M(default)
4) crashkernel=4G crashkernel=256M,high      //high=4G, low=128M(default), high is ignored
5) crashkernel=4G crashkernel=256M,low       //high=4G, low=128M(default), low is ignored
6) crashkernel=4G,high                       //high=4G, low=128M(default)
7) crashkernel=256M,low                      //low=0M, invalid
8) crashkernel=4G,high crashkernel=256M,low  //high=4G, low=256M
9) crashkernel=4G,high crashkernel=4G,low    //high=0M, low=0M, invalid
10) crashkernel=512M@2560M                   //low=512M
11) crashkernel=1G,high crashkernel=0M,low   //high=1G, low=0M

Recommended usage in general:
1) In the case of small memory: crashkernel=512M
2) In the case of large memory: crashkernel=1024M,high crashkernel=128M,low

Linus Torvalds
3e7aeb78ab Networking changes for 6.8.
Core & protocols
 ----------------
 
  - Analyze and reorganize core networking structs (socks, netdev,
    netns, mibs) to optimize cacheline consumption and set up
    build time warnings to safeguard against future header changes.
    This improves TCP performances with many concurrent connections
    up to 40%.
 
  - Add page-pool netlink-based introspection, exposing the
    memory usage and recycling stats. This helps indentify
    bad PP users and possible leaks.
 
  - Refine TCP/DCCP source port selection to no longer favor even
    source port at connect() time when IP_LOCAL_PORT_RANGE is set.
    This lowers the time taken by connect() for hosts having
    many active connections to the same destination.
 
  - Refactor the TCP bind conflict code, shrinking related socket
    structs.
 
  - Refactor TCP SYN-Cookie handling, as a preparation step to
    allow arbitrary SYN-Cookie processing via eBPF.
 
  - Tune optmem_max for 0-copy usage, increasing the default value
    to 128KB and namespecifying it.
 
  - Allow coalescing for cloned skbs coming from page pools, improving
    RX performances with some common configurations.
 
  - Reduce extension header parsing overhead at GRO time.
 
  - Add bridge MDB bulk deletion support, allowing user-space to
    request the deletion of matching entries.
 
  - Reorder nftables struct members, to keep data accessed by the
    datapath first.
 
  - Introduce TC block ports tracking and use. This allows supporting
    multicast-like behavior at the TC layer.
 
  - Remove UAPI support for retired TC qdiscs (dsmark, CBQ and ATM) and
    classifiers (RSVP and tcindex).
 
  - More data-race annotations.
 
  - Extend the diag interface to dump TCP bound-only sockets.
 
  - Conditional notification of events for TC qdisc class and actions.
 
  - Support for WPAN dynamic associations with nearby devices, to form
    a sub-network using a specific PAN ID.
 
  - Implement SMCv2.1 virtual ISM device support.
 
  - Add support for Batman-avd mulicast packet type.
 
 BPF
 ---
 
  - Tons of verifier improvements:
    - BPF register bounds logic and range support along with a large
      test suite
    - log improvements
    - complete precision tracking support for register spills
    - track aligned STACK_ZERO cases as imprecise spilled registers. It
      improves the verifier "instructions processed" metric from single
      digit to 50-60% for some programs
    - support for user's global BPF subprogram arguments with few
      commonly requested annotations for a better developer experience
    - support tracking of BPF_JNE which helps cases when the compiler
      transforms (unsigned) "a > 0" into "if a == 0 goto xxx" and the
      like
    - several fixes
 
  - Add initial TX metadata implementation for AF_XDP with support in
    mlx5 and stmmac drivers. Two types of offloads are supported right
    now, that is, TX timestamp and TX checksum offload.
 
  - Fix kCFI bugs in BPF all forms of indirect calls from BPF into
    kernel and from kernel into BPF work with CFI enabled. This allows
    BPF to work with CONFIG_FINEIBT=y.
 
  - Change BPF verifier logic to validate global subprograms lazily
    instead of unconditionally before the main program, so they can be
    guarded using BPF CO-RE techniques.
 
  - Support uid/gid options when mounting bpffs.
 
  - Add a new kfunc which acquires the associated cgroup of a task
    within a specific cgroup v1 hierarchy where the latter is identified
    by its id.
 
  - Extend verifier to allow bpf_refcount_acquire() of a map value field
    obtained via direct load which is a use-case needed in sched_ext.
 
  - Add BPF link_info support for uprobe multi link along with bpftool
    integration for the latter.
 
  - Support for VLAN tag in XDP hints.
 
  - Remove deprecated bpfilter kernel leftovers given the project
    is developed in user-space (https://github.com/facebook/bpfilter).
 
 Misc
 ----
 
  - Support for parellel TC self-tests execution.
 
  - Increase MPTCP self-tests coverage.
 
  - Updated the bridge documentation, including several so-far
    undocumented features.
 
  - Convert all the net self-tests to run in unique netns, to
    avoid random failures due to conflict and allow concurrent
    runs.
 
  - Add TCP-AO self-tests.
 
  - Add kunit tests for both cfg80211 and mac80211.
 
  - Autogenerate Netlink families documentation from YAML spec.
 
  - Add yml-gen support for fixed headers and recursive nests, the
    tool can now generate user-space code for all genetlink families
    for which we have specs.
 
  - A bunch of additional module descriptions fixes.
 
  - Catch incorrect freeing of pages belonging to a page pool.
 
 Driver API
 ----------
 
  - Rust abstractions for network PHY drivers; do not cover yet the
    full C API, but already allow implementing functional PHY drivers
    in rust.
 
  - Introduce queue and NAPI support in the netdev Netlink interface,
    allowing complete access to the device <> NAPIs <> queues
    relationship.
 
  - Introduce notifications filtering for devlink to allow control
    application scale to thousands of instances.
 
  - Improve PHY validation, requesting rate matching information for
    each ethtool link mode supported by both the PHY and host.
 
  - Add support for ethtool symmetric-xor RSS hash.
 
  - ACPI based Wifi band RFI (WBRF) mitigation feature for the AMD
    platform.
 
  - Expose pin fractional frequency offset value over new DPLL generic
    netlink attribute.
 
  - Convert older drivers to platform remove callback returning void.
 
  - Add support for PHY package MMD read/write.

c48a7c44a1 docs: kernel_feat.py: fix potential command injection
The kernel-feat directive passes its argument straight to the shell.
This is unfortunate and unnecessary.

Let's always use paths relative to $srctree/Documentation/ and use
subprocess.check_call() instead of subprocess.Popen(shell=True).

This also makes the code shorter.

This is analogous to commit 3231dd5862 ("docs: kernel_abi.py: fix
command injection") where we did exactly the same thing for
kernel_abi.py, somehow I completely missed this one.

da96801729 regulator: Updates for v6.8
The main updates for this release are around monitoring of regulators,
 largely for error handling purposes.  We allow the stream of regulator
 events to be seen by userspace as netlink events and allow system
 integrators to describe individual regulators as system critical with
 information on how long the system is expected to last on error.  The
 system level error handling is very much about best effort problem
 mitigation rather than providing something fully robust, the initial
 drive was to provide a mechanism for trying to avoid initiating any new
 writes to flash once we notice the power going out.
 
 Otherwise it's very quiet, mainly several new Qualcomm devices.
 
  - Support for marking regulators as system critical and providing
    information on how long the system might last with those regulators
    in a failure state, hooked into the existing critical shutdown error
    handling.
  - Optional support for generating netlink events for events, there are
    use cases for system monitoring UIs and error handling.
  - A command line option to leave unused controllable regulators
    enabled, useful for debugging.  We already only disable regulators we
    were explicitly given permission to control.
  - Support for Quacomm MP5496, PM8010 and PM8937.

fb46e22a9e Many singleton patches against the MM code. The patch series which
are included in this merge do the following:
 
 - Peng Zhang has done some mapletree maintainance work in the
   series
 
 	"maple_tree: add mt_free_one() and mt_attr() helpers"
 	"Some cleanups of maple tree"
 
 - In the series "mm: use memmap_on_memory semantics for dax/kmem"
   Vishal Verma has altered the interworking between memory-hotplug
   and dax/kmem so that newly added 'device memory' can more easily
   have its memmap placed within that newly added memory.
 
 - Matthew Wilcox continues folio-related work (including a few
   fixes) in the patch series
 
 	"Add folio_zero_tail() and folio_fill_tail()"
 	"Make folio_start_writeback return void"
 	"Fix fault handler's handling of poisoned tail pages"
 	"Convert aops->error_remove_page to ->error_remove_folio"
 	"Finish two folio conversions"
 	"More swap folio conversions"
 
 - Kefeng Wang has also contributed folio-related work in the series
 
 	"mm: cleanup and use more folio in page fault"
 
 - Jim Cromie has improved the kmemleak reporting output in the
   series "tweak kmemleak report format".
 
 - In the series "stackdepot: allow evicting stack traces" Andrey
   Konovalov to permits clients (in this case KASAN) to cause
   eviction of no longer needed stack traces.
 
 - Charan Teja Kalla has fixed some accounting issues in the page
   allocator's atomic reserve calculations in the series "mm:
   page_alloc: fixes for high atomic reserve caluculations".
 
 - Dmitry Rokosov has added to the samples/ dorectory some sample
   code for a userspace memcg event listener application.  See the
   series "samples: introduce cgroup events listeners".
 
 - Some mapletree maintanance work from Liam Howlett in the series
   "maple_tree: iterator state changes".
 
 - Nhat Pham has improved zswap's approach to writeback in the
   series "workload-specific and memory pressure-driven zswap
   writeback".
 
 - DAMON/DAMOS feature and maintenance work from SeongJae Park in
   the series
 
 	"mm/damon: let users feed and tame/auto-tune DAMOS"
 	"selftests/damon: add Python-written DAMON functionality tests"
 	"mm/damon: misc updates for 6.8"

   "mm: memcg: subtree stats flushing and thresholds".
 
 - In the series "Multi-size THP for anonymous memory" Ryan Roberts
   has added a runtime opt-in feature to transparent hugepages which
   improves performance by allocating larger chunks of memory during
   anonymous page faults.
 
 - Matthew Wilcox has also contributed some cleanup and maintenance
   work against eh buffer_head code int he series "More buffer_head
   cleanups".

   isolated CPUs. While it isn't there yet, the hope is eventually reaching
   parity with the isolation level provided by the `isolcpus` boot param but
   in a dynamic manner.
 
   This involved a couple workqueue patches which were applied directly to
   cgroup/for-6.8 rather than ping-ponged through the wq tree. This was
   because the wq code change was small and the area is usually very static
   and unlikely to cause conflicts. However, luck had it that there was a wq
   bug fix in the area during the 6.7 cycle which caused a conflict. The
   conflict is contextual but can be a bit confusing to resolve, so there is
   one merge from wq/for-6.7-fixes.

501a06fe8e zswap: memcontrol: implement zswap writeback disabling
During our experiment with zswap, we sometimes observe swap IOs due to
occasional zswap store failures and writebacks-to-swap.  These swapping
IOs prevent many users who cannot tolerate swapping from adopting zswap to
save memory and improve performance where possible.

This patch adds the option to disable this behavior entirely: do not
writeback to backing swapping device when a zswap store attempt fail, and
do not write pages in the zswap pool back to the backing swap device (both
when the pool is full, and when the new zswap shrinker is called).

This new behavior can be opted-in/out on a per-cgroup basis via a new
cgroup file.  By default, writebacks to swap device is enabled, which is
the previous behavior.  Initially, writeback is enabled for the root
cgroup, and a newly created cgroup will inherit the current setting of its
parent.

Note that this is subtly different from setting memory.swap.max to 0, as
it still allows for pages to be stored in the zswap pool (which itself
consumes swap space in its current form).

This patch should be applied on top of the zswap shrinker series:

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20231130194023.4102148-1-nphamcs@gmail.com/

as it also disables the zswap shrinker, a major source of zswap
writebacks.

For the most part, this feature is motivated by internal parties who
have already established their opinions regarding swapping - the
workloads that are highly sensitive to IO, and especially those who are
using servers with really slow disk performance (for instance, massive
but slow HDDs).  For these folks, it's impossible to convince them to
even entertain zswap if swapping also comes as a packaged deal. 
Writeback disabling is quite a useful feature in these situations - on
a mixed workloads deployment, they can disable writeback for the more
IO-sensitive workloads, and enable writeback for other background
workloads.

For instance, on a server with HDD, I allocate memories and populate
them with random values (so that zswap store will always fail), and
specify memory.high low enough to trigger reclaim.  The time it takes
to allocate the memories and just read through it a couple of times
(doing silly things like computing the values' average etc.):

zswap.writeback disabled:
real 0m30.537s
user 0m23.687s
sys 0m6.637s
0 pages swapped in
0 pages swapped out

zswap.writeback enabled:
real 0m45.061s
user 0m24.310s
sys 0m8.892s
712686 pages swapped in
461093 pages swapped out

(the last two lines are from vmstat -s).

adef440691 userfaultfd: UFFDIO_MOVE uABI
Implement the uABI of UFFDIO_MOVE ioctl.
UFFDIO_COPY performs ~20% better than UFFDIO_MOVE when the application
needs pages to be allocated [1]. However, with UFFDIO_MOVE, if pages are
available (in userspace) for recycling, as is usually the case in heap
compaction algorithms, then we can avoid the page allocation and memcpy
(done by UFFDIO_COPY). Also, since the pages are recycled in the
userspace, we avoid the need to release (via madvise) the pages back to
the kernel [2].

We see over 40% reduction (on a Google pixel 6 device) in the compacting
thread's completion time by using UFFDIO_MOVE vs.  UFFDIO_COPY.  This was
measured using a benchmark that emulates a heap compaction implementation
using userfaultfd (to allow concurrent accesses by application threads). 
More details of the usecase are explained in [2].  Furthermore,
UFFDIO_MOVE enables moving swapped-out pages without touching them within
the same vma.  Today, it can only be done by mremap, however it forces
splitting the vma.

[1] https://lore.kernel.org/all/1425575884-2574-1-git-send-email-aarcange@redhat.com/
[2] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/CA+EESO4uO84SSnBhArH4HvLNhaUQ5nZKNKXqxRCyjniNVjp0Aw@mail.gmail.com/

Update for the ioctl_userfaultfd(2)  manpage:

   UFFDIO_MOVE
       (Since Linux xxx)  Move a continuous memory chunk into the
       userfault registered range and optionally wake up the blocked
       thread. The source and destination addresses and the number of
       bytes to move are specified by the src, dst, and len fields of
       the uffdio_move structure pointed to by argp:

           struct uffdio_move {
               __u64 dst;    /* Destination of move */
               __u64 src;    /* Source of move */
               __u64 len;    /* Number of bytes to move */
               __u64 mode;   /* Flags controlling behavior of move */
               __s64 move;   /* Number of bytes moved, or negated error */
           };

       The following value may be bitwise ORed in mode to change the
       behavior of the UFFDIO_MOVE operation:

       UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_DONTWAKE
              Do not wake up the thread that waits for page-fault
              resolution

       UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_ALLOW_SRC_HOLES
              Allow holes in the source virtual range that is being moved.
              When not specified, the holes will result in ENOENT error.
              When specified, the holes will be accounted as successfully
              moved memory. This is mostly useful to move hugepage aligned
              virtual regions without knowing if there are transparent
              hugepages in the regions or not, but preventing the risk of
              having to split the hugepage during the operation.

       The move field is used by the kernel to return the number of
       bytes that was actually moved, or an error (a negated errno-
       style value).  If the value returned in move doesn't match the
       value that was specified in len, the operation fails with the
       error EAGAIN.  The move field is output-only; it is not read by
       the UFFDIO_MOVE operation.

       The operation may fail for various reasons. Usually, remapping of
       pages that are not exclusive to the given process fail; once KSM
       might deduplicate pages or fork() COW-shares pages during fork()
       with child processes, they are no longer exclusive. Further, the
       kernel might only perform lightweight checks for detecting whether
       the pages are exclusive, and return -EBUSY in case that check fails.
       To make the operation more likely to succeed, KSM should be
       disabled, fork() should be avoided or MADV_DONTFORK should be
       configured for the source VMA before fork().

       This ioctl(2) operation returns 0 on success.  In this case, the
       entire area was moved.  On error, -1 is returned and errno is
       set to indicate the error.  Possible errors include:

       EAGAIN The number of bytes moved (i.e., the value returned in
              the move field) does not equal the value that was
              specified in the len field.

       EINVAL Either dst or len was not a multiple of the system page
              size, or the range specified by src and len or dst and len
              was invalid.

       EINVAL An invalid bit was specified in the mode field.

       ENOENT
              The source virtual memory range has unmapped holes and
              UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_ALLOW_SRC_HOLES is not set.

       EEXIST
              The destination virtual memory range is fully or partially
              mapped.

       EBUSY
              The pages in the source virtual memory range are either
              pinned or not exclusive to the process. The kernel might
              only perform lightweight checks for detecting whether the
              pages are exclusive. To make the operation more likely to
              succeed, KSM should be disabled, fork() should be avoided
              or MADV_DONTFORK should be configured for the source virtual
              memory area before fork().

       ENOMEM Allocating memory needed for the operation failed.

       ESRCH
              The target process has exited at the time of a UFFDIO_MOVE
              operation.

3485b88390 mm: thp: introduce multi-size THP sysfs interface
In preparation for adding support for anonymous multi-size THP, introduce
new sysfs structure that will be used to control the new behaviours.  A
new directory is added under transparent_hugepage for each supported THP
size, and contains an `enabled` file, which can be set to "inherit" (to
inherit the global setting), "always", "madvise" or "never".  For now, the
kernel still only supports PMD-sized anonymous THP, so only 1 directory is
populated.

The first half of the change converts transhuge_vma_suitable() and
hugepage_vma_check() so that they take a bitfield of orders for which the
user wants to determine support, and the functions filter out all the
orders that can't be supported, given the current sysfs configuration and
the VMA dimensions.  The resulting functions are renamed to
thp_vma_suitable_orders() and thp_vma_allowable_orders() respectively. 
Convenience functions that take a single, unencoded order and return a
boolean are also defined as thp_vma_suitable_order() and
thp_vma_allowable_order().

The second half of the change implements the new sysfs interface.  It has
been done so that each supported THP size has a `struct thpsize`, which
describes the relevant metadata and is itself a kobject.  This is pretty
minimal for now, but should make it easy to add new per-thpsize files to
the interface if needed in future (e.g.  per-size defrag).  Rather than
keep the `enabled` state directly in the struct thpsize, I've elected to
directly encode it into huge_anon_orders_[always|madvise|inherit]
bitfields since this reduces the amount of work required in
thp_vma_allowable_orders() which is called for every page fault.

See Documentation/admin-guide/mm/transhuge.rst, as modified by this
commit, for details of how the new sysfs interface works.

2678fd2fe9 initramfs: Expose retained initrd as sysfs file
When the kernel command line option "retain_initrd" is set, we do not
free the initrd memory. However, we also don't expose it to anyone for
consumption. That leaves us in a weird situation where the only user of
this feature is ppc64 and arm64 specific kexec tooling.

To make it more generally useful, this patch adds a kobject to the
firmware object that contains the initrd context when "retain_initrd"
is set. That way, we can access the initrd any time after boot from
user space and for example hand it into kexec as --initrd parameter
if we want to reboot the same initrd. Or inspect it directly locally.

With this patch applied, there is a new /sys/firmware/initrd file when
the kernel was booted with an initrd and "retain_initrd" command line
option is set.

b5ba474f3f zswap: shrink zswap pool based on memory pressure
Currently, we only shrink the zswap pool when the user-defined limit is
hit.  This means that if we set the limit too high, cold data that are
unlikely to be used again will reside in the pool, wasting precious
memory.  It is hard to predict how much zswap space will be needed ahead
of time, as this depends on the workload (specifically, on factors such as
memory access patterns and compressibility of the memory pages).

This patch implements a memcg- and NUMA-aware shrinker for zswap, that is
initiated when there is memory pressure.  The shrinker does not have any
parameter that must be tuned by the user, and can be opted in or out on a
per-memcg basis.

Furthermore, to make it more robust for many workloads and prevent
overshrinking (i.e evicting warm pages that might be refaulted into
memory), we build in the following heuristics:

* Estimate the number of warm pages residing in zswap, and attempt to
  protect this region of the zswap LRU.
* Scale the number of freeable objects by an estimate of the memory
  saving factor. The better zswap compresses the data, the fewer pages
  we will evict to swap (as we will otherwise incur IO for relatively
  small memory saving).
* During reclaim, if the shrinker encounters a page that is also being
  brought into memory, the shrinker will cautiously terminate its
  shrinking action, as this is a sign that it is touching the warmer
  region of the zswap LRU.

As a proof of concept, we ran the following synthetic benchmark: build the
linux kernel in a memory-limited cgroup, and allocate some cold data in
tmpfs to see if the shrinker could write them out and improved the overall
performance.  Depending on the amount of cold data generated, we observe
from 14% to 35% reduction in kernel CPU time used in the kernel builds.

4e58aaeebb rcu: Restrict access to RCU CPU stall notifiers
Although the RCU CPU stall notifiers can be useful for dumping state when
tracking down delicate forward-progress bugs where NUMA effects cause
cache lines to be delivered to a given CPU regularly, but always in a
state that prevents that CPU from making forward progress.  These bugs can
be detected by the RCU CPU stall-warning mechanism, but in some cases,
the stall-warnings printk()s disrupt the forward-progress bug before
any useful state can be obtained.

Unfortunately, the notifier mechanism added by commit 5b404fdaba ("rcu:
Add RCU CPU stall notifier") can make matters worse if used at all
carelessly. For example, if the stall warning was caused by a lock not
being released, then any attempt to acquire that lock in the notifier
will hang. This will prevent not only the notifier from producing any
useful output, but it will also prevent the stall-warning message from
ever appearing.

This commit therefore hides this new RCU CPU stall notifier
mechanism under a new RCU_CPU_STALL_NOTIFIER Kconfig option that
depends on both DEBUG_KERNEL and RCU_EXPERT.  In addition, the
rcupdate.rcu_cpu_stall_notifiers=1 kernel boot parameter must also
be specified.  The RCU_CPU_STALL_NOTIFIER Kconfig option's help text
contains a warning and explains the dangers of careless use, recommending
lockless notifier code.  In addition, a WARN() is triggered each time
that an attempt is made to register a stall-warning notifier in kernels
built with CONFIG_RCU_CPU_STALL_NOTIFIER=y.

This combination of measures will keep use of this mechanism confined to
debug kernels and away from routine deployments.

a7a0350583 zram: split memory-tracking and ac-time tracking
ZRAM_MEMORY_TRACKING enables two features:
- per-entry ac-time tracking
- debugfs interface

The latter one is the reason why memory-tracking depends on DEBUG_FS,
while the former one is used far beyond debugging these days.  Namely
ac-time is used for fine grained writeback of idle entries (pages).

Move ac-time tracking under its own config option so that it can be
enabled (along with writeback) on systems without DEBUG_FS.

e6a9a2cbc1 fs/proc/task_mmu: report SOFT_DIRTY bits through the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl
The PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl returns information regarding page table entries. 
It is more efficient compared to reading pagemap files.  CRIU can start to
utilize this ioctl, but it needs info about soft-dirty bits to track
memory changes.

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

the cpuset controller. Remove CFTYPE_DEBUG flag for this control file and
make it available by default without any prefix.

The test_cpuset_prs.sh test script and the cgroup-v2.rst documentation

39ff20f5fd /proc/sysrq-trigger: accept multiple keys at once
This way we can do:
`echo _reisub > /proc/sysrq-trigger`
Instead of:
`for i in r e i s u b; do echo "$i" > /proc/sysrq-trigger; done;`

This can be very useful when trying to execute sysrq combo remotely
or from userspace. When sending keys in multiple separate writes,
userspace (eg. bash or ssh) can be killed before whole combo is completed.
Therefore putting all keys in single write is more robust approach.
