Many architectures' switch_mm() (e.g. arm64) do not have an smp_mb()
which the core scheduler code has depended upon since commit:
commit 223baf9d17f25 ("sched: Fix performance regression introduced by mm_cid")
If switch_mm() doesn't call smp_mb(), sched_mm_cid_remote_clear() can
unset the actively used cid when it fails to observe active task after it
sets lazy_put.
There *is* a memory barrier between storing to rq->curr and _return to
userspace_ (as required by membarrier), but the rseq mm_cid has stricter
requirements: the barrier needs to be issued between store to rq->curr
and switch_mm_cid(), which happens earlier than:
- spin_unlock(),
- switch_to().
So it's fine when the architecture switch_mm() happens to have that
barrier already, but less so when the architecture only provides the
full barrier in switch_to() or spin_unlock().
It is a bug in the rseq switch_mm_cid() implementation. All architectures
that don't have memory barriers in switch_mm(), but rather have the full
barrier either in finish_lock_switch() or switch_to() have them too late
for the needs of switch_mm_cid().
Introduce a new smp_mb__after_switch_mm(), defined as smp_mb() in the
generic barrier.h header, and use it in switch_mm_cid() for scheduler
transitions where switch_mm() is expected to provide a memory barrier.
Architectures can override smp_mb__after_switch_mm() if their
switch_mm() implementation provides an implicit memory barrier.
Override it with a no-op on x86 which implicitly provide this memory
barrier by writing to CR3.

BUG() does not return, and arch implementations of BUG() use unreachable()
or other non-returning code. However with !CONFIG_BUG, the default
implementation is often used instead, and that does not do that. x86 always
uses its own implementation, but powerpc with !CONFIG_BUG gives a build
error:
kernel/time/timekeeping.c: In function ‘timekeeping_debug_get_ns’:
kernel/time/timekeeping.c:286:1: error: no return statement in function
returning non-void [-Werror=return-type]

A Hyper-V host provides its guest VMs with entropy in a custom ACPI
table named "OEM0". The entropy bits are updated each time Hyper-V
boots the VM, and are suitable for seeding the Linux guest random
number generator (rng). See a brief description of OEM0 in [1].
Generation 2 VMs on Hyper-V use UEFI to boot. Existing EFI code in
Linux seeds the rng with entropy bits from the EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL.
Via this path, the rng is seeded very early during boot with good
entropy. The ACPI OEM0 table provided in such VMs is an additional
source of entropy.
Generation 1 VMs on Hyper-V boot from BIOS. For these VMs, Linux
doesn't currently get any entropy from the Hyper-V host. While this
is not fundamentally broken because Linux can generate its own entropy,
using the Hyper-V host provided entropy would get the rng off to a
better start and would do so earlier in the boot process.
Improve the rng seeding for Generation 1 VMs by having Hyper-V specific
code in Linux take advantage of the OEM0 table to seed the rng. For
Generation 2 VMs, use the OEM0 table to provide additional entropy
beyond the EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL. Because the OEM0 table is custom to
Hyper-V, parse it directly in the Hyper-V code in the Linux kernel
and use add_bootloader_randomness() to add it to the rng. Once the
entropy bits are read from OEM0, zero them out in the table so
they don't appear in /sys/firmware/acpi/tables/OEM0 in the running
VM. The zero'ing is done out of an abundance of caution to avoid
potential security risks to the rng. Also set the OEM0 data length
to zero so a kexec or other subsequent use of the table won't try
to use the zero'ed bits.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- 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. Please see
the individual changelogs for details.

This reverts one change in commit 924bd6a8c967 ("mm/x86: drop two
unnecessary pud_leaf() definitions").
One issue with that is it broke nopmd builds for at least both arm64 and
riscv (CONFIG_PGTABLE_LEVELS=2). The other issue is it was overlooked that
it's a common change rather than x86 specific (relevant to the commit
message of the commit).
Normally there's no need for empty definition of pXd_leaf() because of the
fallback functions, however this logic may not apply to pgtable-nopmd.h,
because that's a header that can even be used by arch *pgtable.h headers,
which can use the *_leaf() definitions _before_ the fallback functions are
defined. Leave it there to pass PGTABLE_LEVELS=2 builds.

Introduce x86_64 and arm64 functions to get the hypervisor version
information and store it in a structure for simpler parsing.
Use the new function to get and parse the version at boot time. While at
it, move the printing code to hv_common_init() so it is not duplicated.

The HV_REGISTER_ are used as arguments to hv_set/get_register(), which
delegate to arch-specific mechanisms for getting/setting synthetic
Hyper-V MSRs.
On arm64, HV_REGISTER_ defines are synthetic VP registers accessed via
the get/set vp registers hypercalls. The naming matches the TLFS
document, although these register names are not specific to arm64.
However, on x86 the prefix HV_REGISTER_ indicates Hyper-V MSRs accessed
via rdmsrl()/wrmsrl(). This is not consistent with the TLFS doc, where
HV_REGISTER_ is *only* used for used for VP register names used by
the get/set register hypercalls.
To fix this inconsistency and prevent future confusion, change the
arch-generic aliases used by callers of hv_set/get_register() to have
the prefix HV_MSR_ instead of HV_REGISTER_.
Use the prefix HV_X64_MSR_ for the x86-only Hyper-V MSRs. On x86, the
generic HV_MSR_'s point to the corresponding HV_X64_MSR_.
Move the arm64 HV_REGISTER_* defines to the asm-generic hyperv-tlfs.h,
since these are not specific to arm64. On arm64, the generic HV_MSR_'s
point to the corresponding HV_REGISTER_.
While at it, rename hv_get/set_registers() and related functions to
hv_get/set_msr(), hv_get/set_nested_msr(), etc. These are only used for
Hyper-V MSRs and this naming makes that clear.

LLVM moved their issue tracker from their own Bugzilla instance to GitHub
issues. While all of the links are still valid, they may not necessarily
show the most up to date information around the issues, as all updates
will occur on GitHub, not Bugzilla.
Another complication is that the Bugzilla issue number is not always the
same as the GitHub issue number. Thankfully, LLVM maintains this mapping
through two shortlinks:
https://llvm.org/bz<num> -> https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=<num>
https://llvm.org/pr<num> -> https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/<mapped_num>
Switch all "https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=<num>" links to the
"https://llvm.org/pr<num>" shortlink so that the links show the most up to
date information. Each migrated issue links back to the Bugzilla entry,
so there should be no loss of fidelity of information here.

Add __tlb_remove_folio_pages(), which will remove multiple consecutive
pages that belong to the same large folio, instead of only a single page.
We'll be using this function when optimizing unmapping/zapping of large
folios that are mapped by PTEs.
We're using the remaining spare bit in an encoded_page to indicate that
the next enoced page in an array contains actually shifted "nr_pages".
Teach swap/freeing code about putting multiple folio references, and
delayed rmap handling to remove page ranges of a folio.
This extension allows for still gathering almost as many small folios as
we used to (-1, because we have to prepare for a possibly bigger next
entry), but still allows for gathering consecutive pages that belong to
the same large folio.
Note that we don't pass the folio pointer, because it is not required for
now. Further, we don't support page_size != PAGE_SIZE, it won't be
required for simple PTE batching.
We have to provide a separate s390 implementation, but it's fairly
straight forward.
Another, more invasive and likely more expensive, approach would be to use
folio+range or a PFN range instead of page+nr_pages. But, we should do
that consistently for the whole mmu_gather. For now, let's keep it simple
and add "nr_pages" only.
Note that it is now possible to gather significantly more pages: In the
past, we were able to gather ~10000 pages, now we can also gather ~5000
folio fragments that span multiple pages. A folio fragment on x86-64 can
span up to 512 pages (2 MiB THP) and on arm64 with 64k in theory 8192
pages (512 MiB THP). Gathering more memory is not considered something we
should worry about, especially because these are already corner cases.
While we can gather more total memory, we won't free more folio fragments.
As long as page freeing time primarily only depends on the number of
involved folios, there is no effective change for !preempt configurations.
However, we'll adjust tlb_batch_pages_flush() separately to handle corner
cases where page freeing time grows proportionally with the actual memory
size.

Let's add a helper that lets us batch-process multiple consecutive PTEs.
Note that the loop will get optimized out on all architectures except on
powerpc. We have to add an early define of __tlb_remove_tlb_entry() on
ppc to make the compiler happy (and avoid making tlb_remove_tlb_entries()
a macro).

__tlb_remove_page_size()
We have two bits available in the encoded page pointer to store additional
information. Currently, we use one bit to request delay of the rmap
removal until after a TLB flush.
We want to make use of the remaining bit internally for batching of
multiple pages of the same folio, specifying that the next encoded page
pointer in an array is actually "nr_pages". So pass page + delay_rmap
flag instead of an encoded page, to handle the encoding internally.

This patch creates wordpart.h and includes it in asm/word-at-a-time.h
for all architectures. WORD_AT_A_TIME_CONSTANTS depends on kernel.h
because of REPEAT_BYTE. Moving this to another header and including it
where necessary allows us to not include the bloated kernel.h. Making
this implicit dependency on REPEAT_BYTE explicit allows for later
improvements in the lib/string.c inclusion list.

If CONFIG_SMP is not enabled, the smp_load_acquire/smp_store_release is
implemented as READ_ONCE/READ_ONCE and barrier() and type checking.
READ_ONCE/READ_ONCE already checks the pointer type, and then checks it
more stringently outside, but the non-SMP case simply isn't relevant, so
remove the extra compiletime_assert_atomic_type() to avoid compilation
errors.

__ffs/__fls/ffs/fls API and the generic C implementation in

This csum_fold implementation introduced into arch/arc by Vineet Gupta
is better than the default implementation on at least arc, x86, and
riscv. Using GCC trunk and compiling non-inlined version, this
implementation has 41.6667%, 25% fewer instructions on riscv64, x86-64
respectively with -O3 optimization. Most implmentations override this
default in asm, but this should be more performant than all of those
other implementations except for arm which has barrel shifting and
sparc32 which has a carry flag.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next
Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
"The most interesting thing is probably the networking structs
reorganization and a significant amount of changes is around
self-tests.
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.
This 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 c |
