OpenRISC 7.3 updates
One small item and one bug fix.
* The bug fix is to fix an unchecked access in our or1k_atomic syscall,
I am debating if we should just deprecate this as there is minimal
need for it.

openrisc: fix arbitrary kernel memory access via or1k_atomic syscall
sys_or1k_atomic() (syscall 244 in the "or1k" ABI) takes two user
pointers, v1 and v2, and swaps the words they point to in hand-written
assembly.
l.lwz r29,0(r4)
l.lwz r27,0(r5)
l.sw 0(r4),r27
l.sw 0(r5),r29
The pointers are not checked with access_ok(). The four memory
accesses also have no exception table entries.
A caller passes a kernel address as either pointer, and the syscall
reads from and writes to it directly.
This gives an unprivileged process a kernel read/write primitive. It
overwrites kernel data such as the sys_call_table, gaining code
execution in kernel context.
Check both pointers before entering the critical section. Add fixups
for the four memory accesses so faults on valid but unmapped user
addresses return -EFAULT.

Treewide timer related cleanups:
- Remove the leftover CLOCK_TICK_RATE which has been scheduled for
removal more than a decade ago along with some now empty asm/timex.h
files.
- Consolidate delay timer calibration
The construct of having a define in a header requires that
architectures provided asm/timex.h for no reason. Also the function
name for reading the delay timer is confusing at best.
Use a config switch to enable that functionality and rename the
function to delay_read_timer() to make the purpose clear.
This removes some more now empty asm/timex.h files as well.

Generic entry code updates:
- Make syscall user dispatching configurable
Not all architectures can makes use of syscall user dispatching. Allow
them to disable the feature completely.
- Consolidate stack randomization for the generic entry code and the
architectures using it.
Stack randomization on syscall entry was sprinkled throughout the
architecture specific low level entry code and in some cases at the
wrong points, e.g. before establishing state, which violates the
non-instrumentable constraints of that code.
Clean this up by integrating stack randomization into the generic entry
code helpers so that it is invoked at the earliest possible point right
after establishing state and converting all generic entry code using
architecture over.
- Clean up the syscall number handling in the generic entry code. It
works correctly for architectures which have a separate return value
storage in pt_regs, but fails to distinguish the case where user space
handed in -1 as syscall number from the case where the entry code
rejects it by returning -1 to the callers. Aside of that the return
value functionality of those interfaces is not really intuitive.
Fix this by separating the decision to reject a syscall (user dispatch,
ptrace, seccomp ...) from the potential modification of the syscall
number through these mechanisms.
This solves most of the problems for architectures which do not have a
separate return value storage in pt_regs except for the case where a
tracepoint has a BPF script or a probe attached which overwrite both
the syscall number and the return value. But that's a problem which
cannot be solved in the generic code, that only can be addressed by
separating the storage model in the affected architectures.

openrisc: signal: do not restore privileged SR bits on sigreturn
restore_sigcontext() copies the whole supervision register (SR) from the
signal frame and only clears SPR_SR_SM before the value is reloaded into
the hardware SR (through ESR and l.rfe) on the return to user space. All
other SR bits are left under user control.
An unprivileged task can thus return from a signal handler through a
crafted sigframe that clears SPR_SR_DME. With the data MMU disabled the
CPU performs no translation or protection on data accesses, so the task
gains read and write access to arbitrary physical memory, a local
privilege escalation. SPR_SR_IME, SPR_SR_SUMRA, SPR_SR_LEE, SPR_SR_EPH
and the cache-enable bits are exposed the same way. The ptrace GPR regset
already refuses any change to SR for exactly this reason.
Restore only the arithmetic flag bits (F, CY, OV) from the signal frame
and take every privileged control bit from the SR the kernel saved on
signal entry.
Verified with qemu-system-or1k -M or1k-sim: before this change an
unprivileged PoC clears SPR_SR_DME in rt_sigreturn and writes a marker to
physical address 0x03000000 (beyond the kernel's mem=32M); afterwards the
same PoC receives SIGSEGV and physical memory is unchanged.

openrisc: Include <linux/cpumask.h> in smp.h
While OpenRISC currently doesn't fail to build upstream, it appears that
including <asm/smp.h> in the right headers is enough to break that -
primarily because OpenRISC's asm/smp.h header doesn't actually provide
any definition for struct cpumask. Which means the only reason we aren't
failing to build the kernel is because we've been lucky enough that
every spot including asm/smp.h already has definitions for struct
cpumask pulled in.
This became evident when trying to work on a patch series for adding
ref-counted interrupt enable/disable to the kernel, where introducing a
new interrupt_rc.h header suddenly introduced a build error on OpenRISC:

To fix this, let's take an example from the smp.h headers of other

linux/cpumask.h at the top.

uaccess: unify inline vs outline copy_{from,to}_user() selection
The kernel allows arches to select between inline and outline
implementations of the copy_{from,to}_user() by defining individual
INLINE_COPY_FROM_USER and INLINE_COPY_TO_USER, correspondingly. However,
all arches enable or disable them always together.
Without the real use-case for one helper being inlined while the other
outlined, having independent controls is excessive and error prone.
Switch the codebase to the single unified INLINE_COPY_USER control.

openrisc: Add full instruction cache invalidate functions
Add functions to invalidate all cache lines which we will use for static_key patching. On OpenRISC there is no instruction to invalidate an entire cache so we loop and invalidate cache lines one by one. This is not extremely expensive on OpenRISC as we usually have only a few hundred cache lines. I considered using the invalidate cache page or range functions. However, tracking which ranges need invalidation would have been more expensive than flushing all pages. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Stafford Horne <shorne@gmail.com> |

ring-buffer: Flush and stop persistent ring buffer on panic
On real hardware, panic and machine reboot may not flush hardware cache
to memory. This means the persistent ring buffer, which relies on a
coherent state of memory, may not have its events written to the buffer
and they may be lost. Moreover, there may be inconsistency with the
counters which are used for validation of the integrity of the
persistent ring buffer which may cause all data to be discarded.
To avoid this issue, stop recording of the ring buffer on panic and
flush the cache of the ring buffer's memory.

arch, mm: consolidate empty_zero_page
Reduce 22 declarations of empty_zero_page to 3 and 23 declarations of ZERO_PAGE() to 4. Every architecture defines empty_zero_page that way or another, but for the most of them it is always a page aligned page in BSS and most definitions of ZERO_PAGE do virt_to_page(empty_zero_page). Move Linus vetted x86 definition of empty_zero_page and ZERO_PAGE() to the core MM and drop these definitions in architectures that do not implement colored zero page (MIPS and s390). ZERO_PAGE() remains a macro because turning it to a wrapper for a static inline causes severe pain in header dependencies. For the most part the change is mechanical, with these being noteworthy: * alpha: aliased empty_zero_page with ZERO_PGE that was also used for boot parameters. Switching to a generic empty_zero_page removes the aliasing and keeps ZERO_PGE for boot parameters only * arm64: uses __pa_symbol() in ZERO_PAGE() so that definition of ZERO_PAGE() is kept intact. * m68k/parisc/um: allocated empty_zero_page from memblock, although they do not support zero page coloring and having it in BSS will work fine. * sparc64 can have empty_zero_page in BSS rather allocate it, but it can't use virt_to_page() for BSS. Keep it's definition of ZERO_PAGE() but instead of allocating it, make mem_map_zero point to empty_zero_page. * sh: used empty_zero_page for boot parameters at the very early boot. Rename the parameters page to boot_params_page and let sh use the generic empty_zero_page. * hexagon: had an amusing comment about empty_zero_page /* A handy thing to have if one has the RAM. Declared in head.S */ that unfortunately had to go :) Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20260211103141.3215197-4-rppt@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Mike Rapoport (Microsoft) <rppt@kernel.org> Acked-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de> [parisc] Tested-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de> [parisc] Reviewed-by: Christophe Leroy (CS GROUP) <chleroy@kernel.org> Acked-by: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com> Acked-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Acked-by: Magnus Lindholm <linmag7@gmail.com> [alpha] Acked-by: Dinh Nguyen <dinguyen@kernel.org> [nios2] Acked-by: Andreas Larsson <andreas@gaisler.com> [sparc] Acked-by: David Hildenbrand (Arm) <david@kernel.org> Acked-by: Liam R.

arch, mm: consolidate initialization of nodes, zones and memory map
To initialize node, zone and memory map data structures every architecture calls free_area_init() during setup_arch() and passes it an array of zone limits. Beside code duplication it creates "interesting" ordering cases between allocation and initialization of hugetlb and the memory map. Some architectures allocate hugetlb pages very early in setup_arch() in certain cases, some only create hugetlb CMA areas in setup_arch() and sometimes hugetlb allocations happen mm_core_init(). With arch_zone_limits_init() helper available now on all architectures it is no longer necessary to call free_area_init() from architecture setup code. Rather core MM initialization can call arch_zone_limits_init() in a single place. This allows to unify ordering of hugetlb vs memory map allocation and initialization. Remove the call to free_area_init() from architecture specific code and place it in a new mm_core_init_early() function that is called immediately after setup_arch(). After this refactoring it is possible to consolidate hugetlb allocations and eliminate differences in ordering of hugetlb and memory map initialization among different architectures. As the first step of this consolidation move hugetlb_bootmem_alloc() to mm_core_early_init().

watchdog: softlockup: panic when lockup duration exceeds N thresholds
The softlockup_panic sysctl is currently a binary option: panic immediately or never panic on soft lockups. Panicking on any soft lockup, regardless of duration, can be overly aggressive for brief stalls that may be caused by legitimate operations. Conversely, never panicking may allow severe system hangs to persist undetected. Extend softlockup_panic to accept an integer threshold, allowing the kernel to panic only when the normalized lockup duration exceeds N watchdog threshold periods. This provides finer-grained control to distinguish between transient delays and persistent system failures. The accepted values are: - 0: Don't panic (unchanged) - 1: Panic when duration >= 1 * threshold (20s default, original behavior) - N > 1: Panic when duration >= N * threshold (e.g., 2 = 40s, 3 = 60s.) The original behavior is preserved for values 0 and 1, maintaining full backward compatibility while allowing systems to tolerate brief lockups while still catching severe, persistent hangs.

treewide: provide a generic clear_user_page() variant
Patch series "mm: folio_zero_user: clear page ranges", v11.
This series adds clearing of contiguous page ranges for hugepages.
The series improves on the current discontiguous clearing approach in two
ways:
- clear pages in a contiguous fashion.
- use batched clearing via clear_pages() wherever exposed.
The first is useful because it allows us to make much better use of
hardware prefetchers.
The second, enables advertising the real extent to the processor. Where
specific instructions support it (ex. string instructions on x86; "mops"
on arm64 etc), a processor can optimize based on this because, instead of
seeing a sequence of 8-byte stores, or a sequence of 4KB pages, it sees a
larger unit being operated on.
For instance, AMD Zen uarchs (for extents larger than LLC-size) switch to
a mode where they start eliding cacheline allocation. This is helpful not
just because it results in higher bandwidth, but also because now the
cache is not evicting useful cachelines and replacing them with zeroes.
Demand faulting a 64GB region shows performance improvement:
$ perf bench mem mmap -p $pg-sz -f demand -s 64GB -l 5
baseline +series
(GBps +- %stdev) (GBps +- %stdev)
pg-sz=2MB 11.76 +- 1.10% 25.34 +- 1.18% [*] +115.47% preempt=*
pg-sz=1GB 24.85 +- 2.41% 39.22 +- 2.32% + 57.82% preempt=none|voluntary
pg-sz=1GB (similar) 52.73 +- 0.20% [#] +112.19% preempt=full|lazy
[*] This improvement is because switching to sequential clearing
allows the hardware prefetchers to do a much better job.
[#] For pg-sz=1GB a large part of the improvement is because of the
cacheline elision mentioned above. preempt=full|lazy improves upon
that because, not needing explicit invocations of cond_resched() to
ensure reasonable preemption latency, it can clear the full extent
as a single unit. In comparison the maximum extent used for
preempt=none|voluntary is PROCESS_PAGES_NON_PREEMPT_BATCH (32MB).
When provided the full extent the processor forgoes allocating
cachelines on this path almost entirely.
(The hope is that eventually, in the fullness of time, the lazy
preemption model will be able to do the same job that none or
voluntary models are used for, allowing us to do away with
cond_resched().)
Raghavendra also tested previous version of the series on AMD Genoa and
sees similar improvement [1] with preempt=lazy.
$ perf bench mem map -p $page-size -f populate -s 64GB -l 10
base patched change
pg-sz=2MB 12.731939 GB/sec 26.304263 GB/sec 106.6%
pg-sz=1GB 26.232423 GB/sec 61.174836 GB/sec 133.2%
This patch (of 8):
Let's drop all variants that effectively map to clear_page() and provide
it in a generic variant instead.
We'll use the macro clear_user_page to indicate whether an architecture
provides it's own variant.
Also, clear_user_page() is only called from the generic variant of
clear_user_highpage(), so define it only if the architecture does not
provide a clear_user_highpage(). And, for simplicity define it in
linux/highmem.h.
Note that for parisc, clear_page() and clear_user_page() map to
clear_page_asm(), so we can just get rid of the custom clear_user_page()
implementation. There is a clear_user_page_asm() function on parisc, that
seems to be unused. Not sure what's up with that.

openrisc: define arch-specific version of nop()
When compiling a driver written for MIPS on OpenRISC that uses the nop()
function, it fails due to the following error:
drivers/watchdog/pic32-wdt.c: Assembler messages:
drivers/watchdog/pic32-wdt.c:125: Error: unrecognized instruction `nop'
The driver currently uses the generic version of nop() from
include/asm-generic/barrier.h:
#ifndef nop
#define nop() asm volatile ("nop")
#endif
Let's fix this on OpenRISC by defining an architecture-specific version
of nop().
This was tested by performing an allmodconfig openrisc cross compile on
an aarch64 host.

openrisc: dts: Add de0 nano config and devicetree
The de0 nano from Terasic is an FPGA board that we use in the OpenRISC community to test OpenRISC configurations. Add a base configuration for the board that runs an OpenRISC CPU at 50Mhz with 32MB ram, UART for console and some GPIOs for LEDs and switches. There is an older version of this floating around that defines all of the hardware on the board including SPI's, flash devices, sram, ADCs etc. Eventually it would be good to get the full version upstream but for now I think a minimal board is good to start with.

To end the constant struggle with space shortage on 32-bit conflicting with 64-bit's needs. - The 2 patch series "mm/swapfile.c and swap.h cleanup" from Chris Li cleans up some swap code. - The 7 patch series "selftests/mm: Fix false positives and skip unsupported tests" from Donet Tom fixes a few things in our selftests code. - The 7 patch series "prctl: extend PR_SET_THP_DISABLE to only provide THPs when advised" from David Hildenbrand "allows individual processes to opt-out of THP=always into THP=madvise, without affecting other workloads on the system". It's a long story - the [1/N] changelog spells out the considerations. - The 11 patch series "Add and use memdesc_flags_t" from Matthew Wilcox gets us started on the memdesc project. Please see https://kernelnewbies.org/MatthewWilcox/Memdescs and https://blogs.oracle.com/linux/post/introducing-memdesc. - The 3 patch series "Tiny optimization for large read operations" from Chi Zhiling improves the efficiency of the pagecache read path. - The 5 patch series "Better split_huge_page_test result check" from Zi Yan improves our folio splitting selftest code. - The 2 patch series "test that rmap behaves as expected" from Wei Yang adds some rmap selftests. - The 3 patch series "remove write_cache_pages()" from Christoph Hellwig removes that function and converts its two remaining callers. - The 2 patch series "selftests/mm: uffd-stress fixes" from Dev Jain fixes some UFFD selftests issues. - The 3 patch series "introduce kernel file mapped folios" from Boris Burkov introduces the concept of "kernel file pages". Using these permits btrfs to account its metadata pages to the root cgroup, rather than to the cgroups of random inappropriate tasks. - The 2 patch series "mm/pageblock: improve readability of some pageblock handling" from Wei Yang provides some readability improvements to the page allocator code. - The 11 patch series "mm/damon: support ARM32 with LPAE" from SeongJae Park teaches DAMON to understand arm32 highmem. - The 4 patch series "tools: testing: Use existing atomic.h for vma/maple tests" from Brendan Jackman performs some code cleanups and deduplication under tools/testing/. - The 2 patch series "maple_tree: Fix testing for 32bit compiles" from Liam Howlett fixes a couple of 32-bit issues in tools/testing/radix-tree.c. - The 2 patch series "kasan: unify kasan_enabled() and remove arch-specific implementations" from Sabyrzhan Tasbolatov moves KASAN arch-specific initialization code into a common arch-neutral implementation. - The 3 patch series "mm: remove zpool" from Johannes Weiner removes zspool - an indirection layer which now only redirects to a single thing (zsmalloc). - The 2 patch series "mm: task_stack: Stack handling cleanups" from Pasha Tatashin makes a couple of cleanups in the fork code. - The 37 patch series "mm: remove nth_page()" from David Hildenbrand makes rather a lot of adjustments at various nth_page() callsites, eventually permitting the removal of that undesirable helper function. - The 2 patch series "introduce kasan.write_only option in hw-tags" from Yeoreum Yun creates a KASAN read-only mode for ARM, using that architecture's memory tagging feature. It is felt that a read-only mode KASAN is suitable for use in production systems rather than debug-only. - The 3 patch series "mm: hugetlb: cleanup hugetlb folio allocation" from Kefeng Wang does some tidying in the hugetlb folio allocation code. - The 12 patch series "mm: establish const-correctness for pointer parameters" from Max Kellermann makes quite a number of the MM API functions more accurate about the constness of their arguments. This was getting in the way of subsystems (in this case CEPH) when they attempt to improving their own const/non-const accuracy. - The 7 patch series "Cleanup free_pages() misuse" from Vishal Moola fixes a number of code sites which were confused over when to use free_pages() vs __free_pages(). - The 3 patch series "Add Rust abstraction for Maple Trees" from Alice Ryhl makes the mapletree code accessible to Rust. Required by nouveau and by its forthcoming successor: the new Rust Nova driver. - The 2 patch series "selftests/mm: split_huge_page_test: split_pte_mapped_thp improvements" from David Hildenbrand adds a fix and some cleanups to the thp selftesting code. - The 14 patch series "mm, swap: introduce swap table as swap cache (phase I)" from Chris Li and Kairui Song is the first step along the path to implementing "swap tables" - a new approach to swap allocation and state tracking which is expected to yield speed and space improvements.

"While working on various hardening refactoring a while back we
encountered inconsistencies in the application of __attribute_const__
on the ffs() family of functions.
This series fixes this across all archs and adds KUnit tests.
Notably, this found a theoretical underflow in PCI (also fixed here)
and uncovered an inefficiency in ARC (fixed in the ARC arch PR). I
kept the series separate from the general hardening PR since it is a
stand-alone "topic".

arch: Add the macro COMPILE_OFFSETS to all the asm-offsets.c
The include/generated/asm-offsets.h is generated in Kbuild during compiling from arch/SRCARCH/kernel/asm-offsets.c. When we want to generate another similar offset header file, circular dependency can happen. For example, we want to generate a offset file include/generated/test.h, which is included in include/sched/sched.h. If we generate asm-offsets.h first, it will fail, as include/sched/sched.h is included in asm-offsets.c and include/generated/test.h doesn't exist; If we generate test.h first, it can't success neither, as include/generated/asm-offsets.h is included by it. In x86_64, the macro COMPILE_OFFSETS is used to avoid such circular dependency. We can generate asm-offsets.h first, and if the COMPILE_OFFSETS is defined, we don't include the "generated/test.h". And we define the macro COMPILE_OFFSETS for all the asm-offsets.c for this purpose.

mm: introduce memdesc_flags_t
Patch series "Add and use memdesc_flags_t". At some point struct page will be separated from struct slab and struct folio. This is a step towards that by introducing a type for the 'flags' word of all three structures. This gives us a certain amount of type safety by establishing that some of these unsigned longs are different from other unsigned longs in that they contain things like node ID, section number and zone number in the upper bits. That lets us have functions that can be easily called by anyone who has a slab, folio or page (but not easily by anyone else) to get the node or zone. There's going to be some unusual merge problems with this as some odd bits of the kernel decide they want to print out the flags value or something similar by writing page->flags and now they'll need to write page->flags.f instead. That's most of the churn here. Maybe we should be removing these things from the debug output? This patch (of 11): Wrap the unsigned long flags in a typedef. In upcoming patches, this will provide a strong hint that you can't just pass a random unsigned long to functions which take this as an argument.

openrisc: Add text patching API support
Add text patching api's to use in subsequent jump_label implementation. We use a new fixmap FIX_TEXT_POKE0 entry to temporarily override MMU mappings to allow read only text pages to be written to. Previously, __set_fix was marked with __init as it was only used during the EARLYCON stage. Now that TEXT_POKE mappings require post-init usage (e.g., FIX_TEXT_POKE0), keeping __init would cause runtime bugs whenset_fixmap accesses invalid memory. Thus, we remove the __init flag to ensure __set_fix remains valid beyond initialization. A new function patch_insn_write is exposed to allow single instruction patching.

openrisc: Add __attribute_const__ to ffs()-family implementations
While tracking down a problem where constant expressions used by BUILD_BUG_ON() suddenly stopped working[1], we found that an added static initializer was convincing the compiler that it couldn't track the state of the prior statically initialized value. Tracing this down found that ffs() was used in the initializer macro, but since it wasn't marked with __attribute__const__, the compiler had to assume the function might change variable states as a side-effect (which is not true for ffs(), which provides deterministic math results). Add missing __attribute_const__ annotations to OpenRISC's implementations of ffs(), __ffs(), fls(), and __fls() functions. These are pure mathematical functions that always return the same result for the same input with no side effects, making them eligible for compiler optimization. Build tested ARCH=openrisc defconfig with GCC or1k-linux 15.1.0.
