The 32-bit Arm platforms are a bit more interesting this time: I refreshed
an earlier series to mark code as deprecated that does have the tendency
of getting in the way of cleanups and new features but has close to zero
users. Among these are:
- 22 of the remaining 28 legacy board files that predate the current
devicetree based descriptions, using old chips from Intel and Marvell.
The remaining six board files are for TI OMAP1 and Samsung s3c64xx
chips and all still have known users.
- support for Cortex-M3/M4/M7 and ARM1136r0 CPU cores and the 25
machines based on these. These all use devicetree but the CPU
support causes disproportional work. Most of them are just
reference boards, the notable exceptions being the Nokia N800/N810
tablet and the Buglabs BUG platform.
- be8, be32, oabi and iwmmxt userspace binaries, which were mostly
associated with the platforms now scheduled for removal and
are increasingly problematic to support with modern toolchains.
Nothing is actually removed at this point, to ensure that any remaining
users continue to have the 7.3-LTS for a while longer. Patches for
removal are currently being tested.
Other updates include a continued work to convert GPIO number based
interfaces to descriptors, a patch to restore little-endian mode
on the one Arm platform (ixp4xx) that only worked in big-endian mode
recently, and some minor cleanups and bugfixes.

Commit c6e61c06d6 ("ARM: 9463/1: Allow to enable RT") enabled PREEMPT_RT
on ARM but did not select HAVE_POSIX_CPU_TIMERS_TASK_WORK. This leaves
CONFIG_POSIX_CPU_TIMERS_TASK_WORK disabled, so CPU timers expire in hard
IRQ context.
On PREEMPT_RT this makes run_posix_cpu_timers() take the sleeping
sighand->siglock:
BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at spinlock_rt.c:48
rt_spin_lock from lock_task_sighand
lock_task_sighand from run_posix_cpu_timers
run_posix_cpu_timers from update_process_times
ARM handles TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME on all return-to-user paths, including v7-M.
ARM32 KVM host support was removed by commit 541ad0150c ("arm: Remove
32bit KVM host support"), so the select need not be conditional on KVM.
Select it to defer POSIX CPU timer expiry to task context.
Reproduced with setrlimit(RLIMIT_CPU, ...) and a busy loop. The same path
is used by setitimer(ITIMER_PROF or ITIMER_VIRTUAL) and POSIX CPU timers
created with timer_create().

The eBPF JIT unconditionally generates ldrh/strh instructions, which do
not function correctly on the Risc PC because its bus is unable to
signal half-word accesses. Work around this issue by disabling the eBPF
JIT when building for ARMv3 (the Risc PC is the only currently
supported machine whose kernel is built for ARMv3).

The header define in asm/timex,h and the naming of the function to read the
delay timer are confusing at best.
Convert it to a config switch selected by the archictures which provide the
functionality and rename the function to delay_read_timer(), which makes
the purpose clear. Move the declaration to linux/delay.h where it belongs.
Remove the resulting empty asm/timex.h files as well.
No functional change.

The Cortex-M3/M4/M7 cores were designed as a replacement for the earlier
ARM7TDMI and ARM9TDMI microarchitectures used in older microcontrollers.
At the moment, Linux can run these cores either when they are integrated
into a larger SoC, or as standalone microcontrollers. While there was
a lot of development work going into Cortex-M support from 2011 to 2016,
this largely stopped when it became clear that Zephyr and other RTOS
had taken over that market. To date, the only Cortex-M based based
microcontroller boards supported upstream are reference implementations.
Schedule these for removal after the next LTS kernel, so if any users
remain that want to update their kernels, they can stay on that
version for a few years before having to maintain the platform support
out of tree.

With no remaining users and support getting removed from future compilers,
there seems little point in keeping iwmmxt around much longer.
On the other hand, the iwmmxt support in the kernel rarely gets in the
way, so there is little cost, so set a removal date of early 2027 for
the moment. If anyone is still using this, it can be extended as long
there is binutils support.

This configuration option is for the older boot method that preceeded
ATAGS. This was scheduled for removal back in 2001, but the removal
never happened, presumably because nobody cared enough to actually do it,
not because there are any users left.
Add "(DEPRECATED)' to the Kconfig line and update the timeline so we can
remove it next year along with the other options that are not scheduled
for that timeframe.

Only a very small number of machines remain that rely on
traditional board files with the ATAGS boot data instead
of devicetree, and we have not accepted new ones for
a decade.
Most of the remaining ones are on their way out of the
kernel, but the Kconfig option that controls ATAGS
is still enabled by default.
To reflect the actual status of ATAGS support and alert
the remaining users of upstream and out-of-tree platforms
with this, change it to being default-disabled and
add a dependency on CONFIG_EXPERT.
The board specific defconfig files that rely on ATAGS
are changed to turn on both EXPERT and ATAGS if they
were not doing that already, and the ones that explicitly
turned it off before no longer need to.

As discussed on the mailing lists, there is no way to build OABI userspace
binaries any more since gcc-4.8, and now support is also getting dropped in
binutils, which will make it impossible to build pure OABI kernels at some
point in the future.
I found no evidence of anyone still sing OABI userspace on embedded systems
that keep getting kernel updates, but there are a few desktop-class machines
that date back to the 1990s using Intel StrongARM processors that were
supported by old versions of Debian, Red Hat or the official Corel
Netwinder distribution.
Add a much stricter Kconfig dependency for both native OABI and OABI_COMPAT
enabled kernels, only allowing either of them to be selected when building
a kernel that targets a StrongARM based machine.

On ARMv4 and ARMv5, the default is still to build for OABI, with
CONFIG_AEABI disabled, even though distros and toolchains no longer
support OABI as a target.
Change the default to EABI for all architecture levels and change
the defconfig entries as follows:
- All machines that used to explicitly enable EABI can drop that line now
- Machines that are likely to actually use old distros and had NWFPE
enabled in combination with OABI (rpc, footrbridge, netwinder,
assabet, neponset) explicitly turn it on now.
- Machines that already had both EABI and NWFPE disabled in defconfig
(spear3xx, spear6xx) were likely not usable with either OABI or
EABI and now use EABI instead implicitly, making it more likely that
they could work.

ARM big-endian has two different binary formats. BE8 and the older BE32.
They are incompatible with each other.
Handle those when evaluating ARCH_CC_CAN_LINK by using the respective
configuration of the kernel itself.

The generic CC_CAN_LINK detection does not handle different byte orders.
This may lead to userprogs which are not actually runnable on the target

Remove the arch-specific variant of paravirt_steal_clock() and use
the common one instead.
This allows to remove paravirt.c and paravirt.h from arch/arm.
Until all archs supporting Xen have been switched to the common code
of paravirt_steal_clock(), drivers/xen/time.c needs to include
asm/paravirt.h for those archs, while this is not necessary for arm
any longer.

gup_pgd_range() is invoked with disabled interrupts and invokes
__kmap_local_page_prot() via pte_offset_map(), gup_p4d_range().
With HIGHPTE enabled, __kmap_local_page_prot() invokes kmap_high_get()
which uses a spinlock_t via lock_kmap_any(). This leads to an
sleeping-while-atomic error on PREEMPT_RT because spinlock_t becomes a
sleeping lock and must not be acquired in atomic context.
The loop in map_new_virtual() uses wait_queue_head_t for wake up which
also is using a spinlock_t.
Since HIGHPTE is rarely needed at all, turn it off for PREEMPT_RT
to allow the use of get_user_pages_fast().
[arnd: rework patch to turn off HIGHPTE instead of HAVE_PAST_GUP]

jump-labels are used to efficiently switch between two possible code
paths. To achieve this, stop_machine() is used to keep the CPU in a
known state while the opcode is modified. The usage of stop_machine()
here leads to large latency spikes which can be observed on PREEMPT_RT.
Jump labels may change the target during runtime and are not restricted
to debug or "configuration/ setup" part of a PREEMPT_RT system where
high latencies could be defined as acceptable.
On 64-bit Arm, it is possible to use jump labels without the
stop_machine() call, which architecturally provides a way to atomically
change one 32-bit instruction word while keeping maintaining consistency,
but this is not generally the case on 32-bit, in particular in thumb2
mode.
Disable jump-label support on a PREEMPT_RT system when SMP is enabled.

being 8.1, Clang being 15.0.0 and binutils being 2.30. A few Kconfig help
texts are pointing out that specific GCC and Clang versions are needed,
but by now, those pointers to versions, such later than 4.0, later than
4.4, or clang later than 5.0, are obsolete and unlikely to be found by
users configuring their kernel builds anyway.
Drop these outdated remarks in Kconfig help texts referring to older
compiler and binutils versions. No functional change.

The kernel's CFI implementation uses the KCFI ABI specifically, and is
not strictly tied to a particular compiler. In preparation for GCC
supporting KCFI, rename CONFIG_CFI_CLANG to CONFIG_CFI (along with
associated options).
Use new "transitional" Kconfig option for old CONFIG_CFI_CLANG that will
enable CONFIG_CFI during olddefconfig.

Having a platform need a mach-* directory should be seen as a negative,
it means the platform needs special non-standard handling. ARM64 support
does not allow mach-* directories at all. While we may not get to that
given all the non-standard architectures we support, we should still try
to get as close as we can and reduce the number of mach directories.
The mach-hpe/ directory and files, provides just one "feature":
having the kernel print the machine name if the DTB does not also contain
a "model" string (which they always do). To reduce the number of mach-*
directories let's do without that feature and remove this directory.
Note, we drop the l2c_aux_mask = ~0 line, but this is safe as

Now that the minimum supported version of LLVM for building the kernel
has been bumped to 15.0.0, the first depends line of
ARM_HAS_GROUP_RELOCS is always true, so it can be safely removed.

Tracepoints take up memory (around 5K per tracepoint) even when they are
unused. Changes are being made to detect when a tracepoint is defined but
unused and a warning is shown at build. But those changes are not yet
ready for inclusion.
- Fix some of the unused tracepoints that it detected
Some tracepoints were removed and others were hidden by config settings
to match the config settings of where they are instantiated. Some
tracepoints were moved into architecture specific code as only one
architecture used them.
- Call the ftrace_test_filter tracepoint in an unreachable if statement

- Keep track of when fgraph_ops are registered or not
Keep accounting of when fgraph_ops are registered as if a fgraph_ops is
registered twice it can mess up the accounting and it will not work as
expected later. Trigger a warning if something registers it twice as to
catch bugs before they are found by things just not working as expected.
- Make DYNAMIC_FTRACE always enabled for architectures that support it

This simplifies the code.

Updates for the kernel's CRC (cyclic redundancy check) code:
- Reorganize the architecture-optimized CRC code. It now lives in
lib/crc/$(SRCARCH)/ rather than arch/$(SRCARCH)/lib/, and it is no
longer artificially split into separate generic and arch modules.
This allows better inlining and dead code elimination. The generic
CRC code is also no longer exported, simplifying the API. (This
mirrors the similar changes to SHA-1 and SHA-2 in lib/crypto/,
which can be found in the "Crypto library updates" pull request.)
- Improve crc32c() performance on newer x86_64 CPUs on long messages
by enabling the VPCLMULQDQ optimized code.
- Simplify the crypto_shash wrappers for crc32_le() and crc32c().
Register just one shash algorithm for each that uses the (fully
optimized) library functions, instead of unnecessarily providing
direct access to the generic CRC code.
- Remove unused and obsolete drivers for hardware CRC engines.
- Remove CRC-32 combination functions that are no longer used.
- Add kerneldoc for crc32_le(), crc32_be(), and crc32c().
- Convert the crc32() macro to an inline function.

Commit e7607f7d6d ("ARM: 9443/1: Require linker to support KEEP within
OVERLAY for DCE") accidentally broke the binutils version restriction
that was added in commit 0d437918fb ("ARM: 9414/1: Fix build issue
with LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION"), reintroducing the segmentation
fault addressed by that workaround.
Restore the binutils version dependency by using
CONFIG_LD_CAN_USE_KEEP_IN_OVERLAY as an additional condition to ensure
that CONFIG_HAVE_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION is only enabled with
binutils >= 2.36 and ld.lld >= 21.0.0.

The ipi tracepoints are mostly generic, but the tracepoints ipi_raise,
ipi_entry and ipi_exit are only used by arm and arm64. This means these
trace events are wasting memory in all the other architectures that do not
use them.
Add CONFIG_HAVE_EXTRA_IPI_TRACEPOINTS and have arm and arm64 select it to
enable these trace events. The config makes it easy if other architectures
decide to trace these as well.

Ftrace is tightly coupled with architecture specific code because it
requires the use of trampolines written in assembly. This means that when
a new feature or optimization is made, it must be done for all
architectures. To simplify the approach, CONFIG_HAVE_FTRACE_* configs are
added to denote which architecture has the new enhancement so that other
architectures can still function until they too have been updated.
The CONFIG_HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT was added to help simplify the
DYNAMIC_FTRACE work, but now every architecture that implements
DYNAMIC_FTRACE also has HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT set too, making it redundant
with the HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE.
Remove the HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT config and use DYNAMIC_FTRACE directly where
applicable.

In preparation for adding Clang sanitizer coverage stack depth tracking
that can support stack depth callbacks:
- Add the new top-level CONFIG_KSTACK_ERASE option which will be
implemented either with the stackleak GCC plugin, or with the Clang
stack depth callback support.
- Rename CONFIG_GCC_PLUGIN_STACKLEAK as needed to CONFIG_KSTACK_ERASE,
but keep it for anything specific to the GCC plugin itself.
- Rename all exposed "STACKLEAK" names and files to "KSTACK_ERASE" (named
for what it does rather than what it protects against), but leave as
many of the internals alone as possible to avoid even more churn.
While here, also split "prev_lowest_stack" into CONFIG_KSTACK_ERASE_METRICS,
since that's the only place it is referenced from.

Move the arm-optimized CRC code from arch/arm/lib/crc* into its new
location in lib/crc/arm/, and wire it up in the new way. This new way
of organizing the CRC code eliminates the need to artificially split the
code for each CRC variant into separate arch and generic modules,
enabling better inlining and dead code elimination. For more details,

for the kernel via CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION.
Disallow CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION without support for KEEP

This commit allows building ARMv7 kernels with Rust support.
The rust core library expects some __eabi_... functions
that are not implemented in the kernel.
Those functions are some float operations and __aeabi_uldivmod.
For now those are implemented with define_panicking_intrinsics!.
This is based on the code by Sven Van Asbroeck from the original
rust branch and inspired by the AArch version by Jamie Cunliffe.
I have tested the rust samples and a custom simple MMIO module
on hardware (De1SoC FPGA + Arm A9 CPU).
