Merge tag 'printk-for-6.19' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/printk/linux

Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:

 - Allow creaing nbcon console drivers with an unsafe write_atomic()
   callback that can only be called by the final nbcon_atomic_flush_unsafe().
   Otherwise, the driver would rely on the kthread.

   It is going to be used as the-best-effort approach for an
   experimental nbcon netconsole driver, see

     https://lore.kernel.org/r/20251121-nbcon-v1-2-503d17b2b4af@debian.org

   Note that a safe .write_atomic() callback is supposed to work in NMI
   context. But some networking drivers are not safe even in IRQ
   context:

     https://lore.kernel.org/r/oc46gdpmmlly5o44obvmoatfqo5bhpgv7pabpvb6sjuqioymcg@gjsma3ghoz35

   In an ideal world, all networking drivers would be fixed first and
   the atomic flush would be blocked only in NMI context. But it brings
   the question how reliable networking drivers are when the system is
   in a bad state. They might block flushing more reliable serial
   consoles which are more suitable for serious debugging anyway.

 - Allow to use the last 4 bytes of the printk ring buffer.

 - Prevent queuing IRQ work and block printk kthreads when consoles are
   suspended. Otherwise, they create non-necessary churn or even block
   the suspend.

 - Release console_lock() between each record in the kthread used for
   legacy consoles on RT. It might significantly speed up the boot.

 - Release nbcon context between each record in the atomic flush. It
   prevents stalls of the related printk kthread after it has lost the
   ownership in the middle of a record

 - Add support for NBCON consoles into KDB

 - Add %ptsP modifier for printing struct timespec64 and use it where
   possible

 - Misc code clean up

e9e81d86fe dma-debug: refactor to use physical addresses for page mapping
Convert the DMA debug infrastructure from page-based to physical address-based
mapping as a preparation to rely on physical address for DMA mapping routines.

The refactoring renames debug_dma_map_page() to debug_dma_map_phys() and
changes its signature to accept a phys_addr_t parameter instead of struct page
and offset. Similarly, debug_dma_unmap_page() becomes debug_dma_unmap_phys().
A new dma_debug_phy type is introduced to distinguish physical address mappings
from other debug entry types. All callers throughout the codebase are updated
to pass physical addresses directly, eliminating the need for page-to-physical
conversion in the debug layer.

This refactoring eliminates the need to convert between page pointers and
physical addresses in the debug layer, making the code more efficient and
consistent with the DMA mapping API's physical address focus.

eadaa8b255 dma-mapping: introduce new DMA attribute to indicate MMIO memory
This patch introduces the DMA_ATTR_MMIO attribute to mark DMA buffers
that reside in memory-mapped I/O (MMIO) regions, such as device BARs
exposed through the host bridge, which are accessible for peer-to-peer
(P2P) DMA.

This attribute is especially useful for exporting device memory to other
devices for DMA without CPU involvement, and avoids unnecessary or
potentially detrimental CPU cache maintenance calls.

DMA_ATTR_MMIO is supposed to provide dma_map_resource() functionality
without need to call to special function and perform branching when
processing generic containers like bio_vec by the callers.

119996c9a4 Documentation/printf: Use literal fwnode_handle
When looking for fwnode_handle in the printk format documentation, it is
only found in the Chinese translation:

    $ git grep fwnode_handle -- Documentation/*printk-formats.rst
    Documentation/translations/zh_CN/core-api/printk-formats.rst:用于打印fwnode_handles的消息。默认情况下是打印完整的节点名称,包括路径。

This happens because the original documentation talks about "fwnode

module: Rename EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL_FOR_MODULES to EXPORT_SYMBOL_FOR_MODULES
Christoph suggested that the explicit _GPL_ can be dropped from the
module namespace export macro, as it's intended for in-tree modules
only. It would be possible to restrict it technically, but it was
pointed out [2] that some cases of using an out-of-tree build of an
in-tree module with the same name are legitimate. But in that case those
also have to be GPL anyway so it's unnecessary to spell it out in the
macro name.

   cleans up the pageblock isolation code and fixes a potential issue which
   doesn't seem to cause any problems in practice.
 
 - The 5 patch series "selftests/damon: add python and drgn based DAMON
   sysfs functionality tests" from SeongJae Park adds additional drgn- and
   python-based DAMON selftests which are more comprehensive than the
   existing selftest suite.
 
 - The 5 patch series "Misc rework on hugetlb faulting path" from Oscar
   Salvador fixes a rather obscure deadlock in the hugetlb fault code and
   follows that fix with a series of cleanups.
 
 - The 3 patch series "cma: factor out allocation logic from
   __cma_declare_contiguous_nid" from Mike Rapoport rationalizes and cleans
   up the highmem-specific code in the CMA allocator.
 
 - The 28 patch series "mm/migration: rework movable_ops page migration
   (part 1)" from David Hildenbrand provides cleanups and
   future-preparedness to the migration code.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/damon: add trace events for auto-tuned
   monitoring intervals and DAMOS quota" from SeongJae Park adds some
   tracepoints to some DAMON auto-tuning code.
 
 - The 6 patch series "mm/damon: fix misc bugs in DAMON modules" from
   SeongJae Park does that.
 
 - The 6 patch series "mm/damon: misc cleanups" from SeongJae Park also
   does what it claims.
 
 - The 4 patch series "mm: folio_pte_batch() improvements" from David
   Hildenbrand cleans up the large folio PTE batching code.
 
 - The 13 patch series "mm/damon/vaddr: Allow interleaving in
   migrate_{hot,cold} actions" from SeongJae Park facilitates dynamic
   alteration of DAMON's inter-node allocation policy.
 
 - The 3 patch series "Remove unmap_and_put_page()" from Vishal Moola
   provides a couple of page->folio conversions.
 
 - The 4 patch series "mm: per-node proactive reclaim" from Davidlohr
   Bueso implements a per-node control of proactive reclaim - beyond the
   current memcg-based implementation.
 
 - The 14 patch series "mm/damon: remove damon_callback" from SeongJae
   Park replaces the damon_callback interface with a more general and
   powerful damon_call()+damos_walk() interface.
 
 - The 10 patch series "mm/mremap: permit mremap() move of multiple VMAs"
   from Lorenzo Stoakes implements a number of mremap cleanups (of course)
   in preparation for adding new mremap() functionality: newly permit the
   remapping of multiple VMAs when the user is specifying MREMAP_FIXED.  It
   still excludes some specialized situations where this cannot be
   performed reliably.
 
 - The 3 patch series "drop hugetlb_free_pgd_range()" from Anthony Yznaga
   switches some sparc hugetlb code over to the generic version and removes
   the thus-unneeded hugetlb_free_pgd_range().
 
 - The 4 patch series "mm/damon/sysfs: support periodic and automated
   stats update" from SeongJae Park augments the present
   userspace-requested update of DAMON sysfs monitoring files.  Automatic
   update is now provided, along with a tunable to control the update
   interval.
 
 - The 4 patch series "Some randome fixes and cleanups to swapfile" from
   Kemeng Shi does what is claims.
 
 - The 4 patch series "mm: introduce snapshot_page" from Luiz Capitulino
   and David Hildenbrand provides (and uses) a means by which debug-style
   functions can grab a copy of a pageframe and inspect it locklessly
   without tripping over the races inherent in operating on the live
   pageframe directly.
 
 - The 6 patch series "use per-vma locks for /proc/pid/maps reads" from
   Suren Baghdasaryan addresses the large contention issues which can be
   triggered by reads from that procfs file.  Latencies are reduced by more
   than half in some situations.  The series also introduces several new
   selftests for the /proc/pid/maps interface.
 
 - The 6 patch series "__folio_split() clean up" from Zi Yan cleans up
   __folio_split()!
 
 - The 7 patch series "Optimize mprotect() for large folios" from Dev
   Jain provides some quite large (>3x) speedups to mprotect() when dealing
   with large folios.
 
 - The 2 patch series "selftests/mm: reuse FORCE_READ to replace "asm
   volatile("" : "+r" (XXX));" and some cleanup" from wang lian does some
   cleanup work in the selftests code.
 
 - The 3 patch series "tools/testing: expand mremap testing" from Lorenzo
   Stoakes extends the mremap() selftest in several ways, including adding
   more checking of Lorenzo's recently added "permit mremap() move of
   multiple VMAs" feature.
 
 - The 22 patch series "selftests/damon/sysfs.py: test all parameters"
   from SeongJae Park extends the DAMON sysfs interface selftest so that it
   tests all possible user-requested parameters.  Rather than the present
   minimal subset.

  "drop hugetlb_free_pgd_range()" (Anthony Yznaga)
     switches some sparc hugetlb code over to the generic version and
     removes the thus-unneeded hugetlb_free_pgd_range().

  "mm/damon/sysfs: support periodic and automated stats update" (SeongJae Park)
     augments the present userspace-requested update of DAMON sysfs
     monitoring files. Automatic update is now provided, along with a
     tunable to control the update interval.

  "Some randome fixes and cleanups to swapfile" (Kemeng Shi)
     does what is claims.

  "mm: introduce snapshot_page" (Luiz Capitulino and David Hildenbrand)
     provides (and uses) a means by which debug-style functions can grab
     a copy of a pageframe and inspect it locklessly without tripping
     over the races inherent in operating on the live pageframe
     directly.

  "use per-vma locks for /proc/pid/maps reads" (Suren Baghdasaryan)
     addresses the large contention issues which can be triggered by
     reads from that procfs file. Latencies are reduced by more than
     half in some situations. The series also introduces several new
     selftests for the /proc/pid/maps interface.

  "__folio_split() clean up" (Zi Yan)
     cleans up __folio_split()!

  "Optimize mprotect() for large folios" (Dev Jain)
     provides some quite large (>3x) speedups to mprotect() when dealing
     with large folios.

  "selftests/mm: reuse FORCE_READ to replace "asm volatile("" : "+r" (XXX));" and some cleanup" (wang lian)
     does some cleanup work in the selftests code.

  "tools/testing: expand mremap testing" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
     extends the mremap() selftest in several ways, including adding
     more checking of Lorenzo's recently added "permit mremap() move of
     multiple VMAs" feature.

  "selftests/damon/sysfs.py: test all parameters" (SeongJae Park)
     extends the DAMON sysfs interface selftest so that it tests all
     possible user-requested parameters. Rather than the present minimal
     subset"

Add an introductory paragraph to Part Id - Streaming DMA mappings and move
the explanation of address constraints there, because it applies to all map
functions.

Clarify that streaming DMA can be used with memory which does not meet the
addressing constraints of a device, but it may fail in that case.

Make a note about SWIOTLB and link to the detailed description of it.

Do not mention platform-dependent allocation flags. The note may mislead
device driver authors into thinking that they should poke into and try to
second-guess the DMA API implementation. They definitely shouldn't.

Remove the claim that platforms with an IOMMU may not require physically
contiguous buffers. The current implementation explicitly rejects vmalloc
addresses, regardless of IOMMU.

6381b9d940 docs: dma-api: remove remnants of PCI DMA API
The wording sometimes suggests there are multiple functions for an
operation. This was in fact the case before PCI DMA API was removed, but
since there is only one API now, the documentation has become confusing.

To improve readability:

* Remove implicit references to the PCI DMA API (plurals, use of "both",
  etc.)

* Where possible, refer to an actual function rather than a more generic
  description of the operation.

0bcfca5640 lib/crc: Prepare for arch-optimized code in subdirs of lib/crc/
Rework how lib/crc/ supports arch-optimized code.  First, instead of the
arch-optimized CRC code being in arch/$(SRCARCH)/lib/, it will now be in
lib/crc/$(SRCARCH)/.  Second, the API functions (e.g. crc32c()),
arch-optimized functions (e.g. crc32c_arch()), and generic functions
(e.g. crc32c_base()) will now be part of a single module for each CRC
type, allowing better inlining and dead code elimination.  The second
change is made possible by the first.

As an example, consider CONFIG_CRC32=m on x86.  We'll now have just
crc32.ko instead of both crc32-x86.ko and crc32.ko.  The two modules
were already coupled together and always both got loaded together via
direct symbol dependency, so the separation provided no benefit.

Note: later I'd like to apply the same design to lib/crypto/ too, where
often the API functions are out-of-line so this will work even better.
In those cases, for each algorithm we currently have 3 modules all
coupled together, e.g. libsha256.ko, libsha256-generic.ko, and
sha256-x86.ko.  We should have just one, inline things properly, and
rely on the compiler's dead code elimination to decide the inclusion of
the generic code instead of manually setting it via kconfig.

Having arch-specific code outside arch/ was somewhat controversial when
Zinc proposed it back in 2018.  But I don't think the concerns are
warranted.  It's better from a technical perspective, as it enables the
improvements mentioned above.  This model is already successfully used
in other places in the kernel such as lib/raid6/.  The community of each
architecture still remains free to work on the code, even if it's not in
arch/.  At the time there was also a desire to put the library code in
the same files as the old-school crypto API, but that was a mistake; now
that the library is separate, that's no longer a constraint either.

f11113d013 Merge branch 'WQ_PERCPU' into for-6.17 2025-06-17 08:52:50 -10:00
Marco Crivellari
930c2ea566 workqueue: Add new WQ_PERCPU flag
Currently if a user enqueue a work item using schedule_delayed_work() the
used wq is "system_wq" (per-cpu wq) while queue_delayed_work() use
WORK_CPU_UNBOUND (used when a cpu is not specified). The same applies to
schedule_work() that is using system_wq and queue_work(), that makes use
again of WORK_CPU_UNBOUND.
This lack of consistentcy cannot be addressed without refactoring the API.

This patch adds a new WQ_PERCPU flag to explicitly request the use of
the per-CPU behavior. Both flags coexist for one release cycle to allow
callers to transition their calls.

Once migration is complete, WQ_UNBOUND can be removed and unbound will
become the implicit default.

00c010e130 - The 11 patch series "Add folio_mk_pte()" from Matthew Wilcox
simplifies the act of creating a pte which addresses the first page in a
   folio and reduces the amount of plumbing which architecture must
   implement to provide this.
 
 - The 8 patch series "Misc folio patches for 6.16" from Matthew Wilcox
   is a shower of largely unrelated folio infrastructure changes which
   clean things up and better prepare us for future work.
 
 - The 3 patch series "memory,x86,acpi: hotplug memory alignment
   advisement" from Gregory Price adds early-init code to prevent x86 from
   leaving physical memory unused when physical address regions are not
   aligned to memory block size.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/compaction: allow more aggressive proactive
   compaction" from Michal Clapinski provides some tuning of the (sadly,
   hard-coded (more sadly, not auto-tuned)) thresholds for our invokation
   of proactive compaction.  In a simple test case, the reduction of a guest
   VM's memory consumption was dramatic.
 
 - The 8 patch series "Minor cleanups and improvements to swap freeing
   code" from Kemeng Shi provides some code cleaups and a small efficiency
   improvement to this part of our swap handling code.
 
 - The 6 patch series "ptrace: introduce PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO API"
   from Dmitry Levin adds the ability for a ptracer to modify syscalls
   arguments.  At this time we can alter only "system call information that
   are used by strace system call tampering, namely, syscall number,
   syscall arguments, and syscall return value.
 
   This series should have been incorporated into mm.git's "non-MM"
   branch, but I goofed.
 
 - The 3 patch series "fs/proc: extend the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl to report
   guard regions" from Andrei Vagin extends the info returned by the
   PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl against /proc/pid/pagemap.  This permits CRIU to more
   efficiently get at the info about guard regions.
 
 - The 2 patch series "Fix parameter passed to page_mapcount_is_type()"
   from Gavin Shan implements that fix.  No runtime effect is expected
   because validate_page_before_insert() happens to fix up this error.
 
 - The 3 patch series "kernel/events/uprobes: uprobe_write_opcode()
   rewrite" from David Hildenbrand basically brings uprobe text poking into
   the current decade.  Remove a bunch of hand-rolled implementation in
   favor of using more current facilities.
 
 - The 3 patch series "mm/ptdump: Drop assumption that pxd_val() is u64"
   from Anshuman Khandual provides enhancements and generalizations to the
   pte dumping code.  This might be needed when 128-bit Page Table
   Descriptors are enabled for ARM.
 
 - The 12 patch series "Always call constructor for kernel page tables"
   from Kevin Brodsky "ensures that the ctor/dtor is always called for
   kernel pgtables, as it already is for user pgtables".  This permits the
   addition of more functionality such as "insert hooks to protect page
   tables".  This change does result in various architectures performing
   unnecesary work, but this is fixed up where it is anticipated to occur.
 
 - The 9 patch series "Rust support for mm_struct, vm_area_struct, and
   mmap" from Alice Ryhl adds plumbing to permit Rust access to core MM
   structures.
 
 - The 3 patch series "fix incorrectly disallowed anonymous VMA merges"
   from Lorenzo Stoakes takes advantage of some VMA merging opportunities
   which we've been missing for 15 years.
 
 - The 4 patch series "mm/madvise: batch tlb flushes for MADV_DONTNEED
   and MADV_FREE" from SeongJae Park optimizes process_madvise()'s TLB
   flushing.  Instead of flushing each address range in the provided iovec,
   we batch the flushing across all the iovec entries.  The syscall's cost
   was approximately halved with a microbenchmark which was designed to
   load this particular operation.
 
 - The 6 patch series "Track node vacancy to reduce worst case allocation
   counts" from Sidhartha Kumar makes the maple tree smarter about its node
   preallocation.  stress-ng mmap performance increased by single-digit
   percentages and the amount of unnecessarily preallocated memory was
   dramaticelly reduced.
 
 - The 3 patch series "mm/gup: Minor fix, cleanup and improvements" from
   Baoquan He removes a few unnecessary things which Baoquan noted when
   reading the code.
 
 - The 3 patch series ""Enhance sysfs handling for memory hotplug in
   weighted interleave" from Rakie Kim "enhances the weighted interleave
   policy in the memory management subsystem by improving sysfs handling,
   fixing memory leaks, and introducing dynamic sysfs updates for memory
   hotplug support".  Fixes things on error paths which we are unlikely to
   hit.
 
 - The 7 patch series "mm/damon: auto-tune DAMOS for NUMA setups
   including tiered memory" from SeongJae Park introduces new DAMOS quota
   goal metrics which eliminate the manual tuning which is required when
   utilizing DAMON for memory tiering.
 
 - The 5 patch series "mm/vmalloc.c: code cleanup and improvements" from
   Baoquan He provides cleanups and small efficiency improvements which
   Baoquan found via code inspection.
 
 - The 2 patch series "vmscan: enforce mems_effective during demotion"
   from Gregory Price "changes reclaim to respect cpuset.mems_effective
   during demotion when possible".  because "presently, reclaim explicitly
   ignores cpuset.mems_effective when demoting, which may cause the cpuset
   settings to violated." "This is useful for isolating workloads on a
   multi-tenant system from certain classes of memory more consistently."
 
 - The 2 patch series ""Clean up split_huge_pmd_locked() and remove
   unnecessary folio pointers" from Gavin Guo provides minor cleanups and
   efficiency gains in in the huge page splitting and migrating code.
 
 - The 3 patch series "Use kmem_cache for memcg alloc" from Huan Yang
   creates a slab cache for `struct mem_cgroup', yielding improved memory
   utilization.
 
 - The 4 patch series "add max arg to swappiness in memory.reclaim and
   lru_gen" from Zhongkun He adds a new "max" argument to the "swappiness="
   argument for memory.reclaim MGLRU's lru_gen.  This directs proactive
   reclaim to reclaim from only anon folios rather than file-backed folios.
 
 - The 17 patch series "kexec: introduce Kexec HandOver (KHO)" from Mike
   Rapoport is the first step on the path to permitting the kernel to
   maintain existing VMs while replacing the host kernel via file-based
   kexec.  At this time only memblock's reserve_mem is preserved.
 
 - The 7 patch series "mm: Introduce for_each_valid_pfn()" from David
   Woodhouse provides and uses a smarter way of looping over a pfn range.
   By skipping ranges of invalid pfns.
 
 - The 2 patch series "sched/numa: Skip VMA scanning on memory pinned to
   one NUMA node via cpuset.mems" from Libo Chen removes a lot of pointless
   VMA scanning when a task is pinned a single NUMA mode.  Dramatic
   performance benefits were seen in some real world cases.
 
 - The 2 patch series "JFS: Implement migrate_folio for
   jfs_metapage_aops" from Shivank Garg addresses a warning which occurs
   during memory compaction when using JFS.
 
 - The 4 patch series "move all VMA allocation, freeing and duplication
   logic to mm" from Lorenzo Stoakes moves some VMA code from kernel/fork.c
   into the more appropriate mm/vma.c.
 
 - The 6 patch series "mm, swap: clean up swap cache mapping helper" from
   Kairui Song provides code consolidation and cleanups related to the
   folio_index() function.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/gup: Cleanup memfd_pin_folios()" from Vishal
   Moola does that.
 
 - The 8 patch series "memcg: Fix test_memcg_min/low test failures" from
   Waiman Long addresses some bogus failures which are being reported by
   the test_memcontrol selftest.
 
 - The 3 patch series "eliminate mmap() retry merge, add .mmap_prepare
   hook" from Lorenzo Stoakes commences the deprecation of
   file_operations.mmap() in favor of the new
   file_operations.mmap_prepare().  The latter is more restrictive and
   prevents drivers from messing with things in ways which, amongst other
   problems, may defeat VMA merging.
 
 - The 4 patch series "memcg: decouple memcg and objcg stocks"" from
   Shakeel Butt decouples the per-cpu memcg charge cache from the objcg's
   one.  This is a step along the way to making memcg and objcg charging
   NMI-safe, which is a BPF requirement.
 
 - The 6 patch series "mm/damon: minor fixups and improvements for code,
   tests, and documents" from SeongJae Park is "yet another batch of
   miscellaneous DAMON changes.  Fix and improve minor problems in code,
   tests and documents."
 
 - The 7 patch series "memcg: make memcg stats irq safe" from Shakeel
   Butt converts memcg stats to be irq safe.  Another step along the way to
   making memcg charging and stats updates NMI-safe, a BPF requirement.
 
 - The 4 patch series "Let unmap_hugepage_range() and several related
   functions take folio instead of page" from Fan Ni provides folio
   conversions in the hugetlb code.

Pull drm updates from Dave Airlie:
 "As part of building up nova-core/nova-drm pieces we've brought in some
  rust abstractions through this tree, aux bus being the main one, with
  devres changes also in the driver-core tree. Along with the drm core
  abstractions and enough nova-core/nova-drm to use them. This is still
  all stub work under construction, to build the nova driver upstream.

  The other big NVIDIA related one is nouveau adds support for
  Hopper/Blackwell GPUs, this required a new GSP firmware update to
  570.144, and a bunch of rework in order to support multiple fw
  interfaces.

  There is also the introduction of an asahi uapi header file as a
  precursor to getting the real driver in later, but to unblock
  userspace mesa packages while the driver is trapped behind rust
  enablement.

  Otherwise it's the usual mixture of stuff all over, amdgpu, i915/xe,
  and msm being the main ones, and some changes to vsprintf.

- new two step DMA mapping API, which is is a first step to a long path
   to provide alternatives to scatterlist and to remove hacks, abuses and
   design mistakes related to scatterlists; this new approach optimizes
   some calls to DMA-IOMMU layer and cache maintenance by batching them,
   reduces memory usage as it is no need to store mapped DMA addresses to
   unmap them, and reduces some function call overhead; it is a combination

Helper macro to more easily limit the export of a symbol to a given

Eg:

  EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL_FOR_MODULES(preempt_notifier_inc, "kvm");

will limit the use of said function to kvm.ko, any other module trying
to use this symbol will refure to load (and get modpost build

Before plugging it in, fix it first: irq_domain_get_irq_data() and
irq_domain_set_info() were documented twice. Identically, by both
definitions for CONFIG_IRQ_DOMAIN_HIERARCHY and !CONFIG_IRQ_DOMAIN_HIERARCHY.

Therefore, switch the second kernel-doc into an ordinary comment -- change
"/**" to simple "/*". This avoids sphinx's: WARNING: Duplicate C
declaration

Next, in commit b7b377332b ("irqdomain: Fix the kernel-doc and plug it
into Documentation"), irqdomain.h's (header) kernel-doc was added into
core-api/genericirq.rst. But given the amount of irqdomain functions and
structures, move all these to core-api/irq/irq-domain.rst now.

Finally, add these newly fixed irqdomain.c's (source) docs there as
well.

a4efe303e5 Documentation: irqdomain: Update it
The irqdomain documentaion became obsolete over time. Update and extend
it a bit with respect to the current code and HW.

Most notably the doubled documentation of irq_domain (from .rst and .h)
was unified and let only in .rst. A reference link was added to .h.

Furthermore:
 * Add some 'struct' keywords, so that the respective structs are
   hyperlinked
 * :c:member: use where appropriate to mark a member of a struct
 * Rephrase some wording to improve readability/understanding

592ebd77e6 vsprintf: remove redundant and unused %pCn format specifier
%pC and %pCn print the same string, and commit 900cca2944 ("lib/vsprintf:
add %pC{,n,r} format specifiers for clocks") introducing them does not
clarify any intended difference. It can be assumed %pC is a default for
%pCn as some other specifiers do, but not all are consistent with this
policy. Moreover there is now no other suffix other than 'n', which makes a
default not really useful.

All users in the kernel were using %pC except for one which has been
converted. So now remove %pCn and all the unnecessary extra code and
documentation.

a3d2e34dce Documentation: KHO: add memblock bindings
We introduced KHO into Linux: A framework that allows Linux to pass
metadata and memory across kexec from Linux to Linux.  KHO reuses fdt as
file format and shares a lot of the same properties of firmware-to- Linux
boot formats: It needs a stable, documented ABI that allows for forward
and backward compatibility as well as versioning.

As first user of KHO, we introduced memblock which can now preserve memory
ranges reserved with reserve_mem command line options contents across
kexec, so you can use the post-kexec kernel to read traces from the
pre-kexec kernel.

This patch adds memblock schemas similar to "device" device tree ones to a
new kho bindings directory.  This allows us to force contributors to
document the data that moves across KHO kexecs and catch breaking change
during review.

37eed892cc vsprintf: Use %p4chR instead of %p4cn for reading data in reversed host ordering
The generic FourCC format always prints the data using the big endian
order. It is generic because it allows to read the data using a custom
ordering.

The current code uses "n" for reading data in the reverse host ordering.
It makes the 4 variants [hnbl] consistent with the generic printing
of IPv4 addresses.

Unfortunately, it creates confusion on big endian systems. For example,
it shows the data &(u32)0x67503030 as

	%p4cn	00Pg (0x30305067)

But people expect that the ordering stays the same. The network ordering
is a big-endian ordering.

The problem is that the semantic is not the same. The modifiers affect
the output ordering of IPv4 addresses while they affect the reading order
in case of FourCC code.

Avoid the confusion by replacing the "n" modifier with "hR", aka
reverse host ordering. It is inspired by the existing %p[mM]R printf
format.

1938479b27 lib/vsprintf: Add support for generic FourCCs by extending %p4cc
%p4cc is designed for DRM/V4L2 FourCCs with their specific quirks, but
it's useful to be able to print generic 4-character codes formatted as
an integer. Extend it to add format specifiers for printing generic
32-bit FourCCs with various endian semantics:

%p4ch	Host byte order
%p4cn	Network byte order
%p4cl	Little-endian
%p4cb	Big-endian

The endianness determines how bytes are interpreted as a u32, and the
FourCC is then always printed MSByte-first (this is the opposite of
V4L/DRM FourCCs). This covers most practical cases, e.g. %p4cn would
allow printing LSByte-first FourCCs stored in host endian order
(other than the hex form being in character order, not the integer
value).

eb0ece1602 - The 6 patch series "Enable strict percpu address space checks" from
Uros Bizjak uses x86 named address space qualifiers to provide
   compile-time checking of percpu area accesses.
 
   This has caused a small amount of fallout - two or three issues were
   reported.  In all cases the calling code was founf to be incorrect.
 
 - The 4 patch series "Some cleanup for memcg" from Chen Ridong
   implements some relatively monir cleanups for the memcontrol code.
 
 - The 17 patch series "mm: fixes for device-exclusive entries (hmm)"
   from David Hildenbrand fixes a boatload of issues which David found then
   using device-exclusive PTE entries when THP is enabled.  More work is
   needed, but this makes thins better - our own HMM selftests now succeed.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm: zswap: remove z3fold and zbud" from Yosry
   Ahmed remove the z3fold and zbud implementations.  They have been
   deprecated for half a year and nobody has complained.
 
 - The 5 patch series "mm: further simplify VMA merge operation" from
   Lorenzo Stoakes implements numerous simplifications in this area.  No
   runtime effects are anticipated.
 
 - The 4 patch series "mm/madvise: remove redundant mmap_lock operations
   from process_madvise()" from SeongJae Park rationalizes the locking in
   the madvise() implementation.  Performance gains of 20-25% were observed
   in one MADV_DONTNEED microbenchmark.
 
 - The 12 patch series "Tiny cleanup and improvements about SWAP code"
   from Baoquan He contains a number of touchups to issues which Baoquan

 - The 13 patch series "arch, mm: reduce code duplication in mem_init()"
   from Mike Rapoport consolidates many per-arch implementations of
   mem_init() into code generic code, where that is practical.
 
 - The 13 patch series "mm/damon/sysfs: commit parameters online via

Merge tag 'mm-stable-2025-03-30-16-52' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:

 - The series "Enable strict percpu address space checks" from Uros
   Bizjak uses x86 named address space qualifiers to provide
   compile-time checking of percpu area accesses.

   This has caused a small amount of fallout - two or three issues were
   reported. In all cases the calling code was found to be incorrect.

 - The series "Some cleanup for memcg" from Chen Ridong implements some
   relatively monir cleanups for the memcontrol code.

 - The series "mm: fixes for device-exclusive entries (hmm)" from David
   Hildenbrand fixes a boatload of issues which David found then using
   device-exclusive PTE entries when THP is enabled. More work is
   needed, but this makes thins better - our own HMM selftests now
   succeed.

 - The series "mm: zswap: remove z3fold and zbud" from Yosry Ahmed
   remove the z3fold and zbud implementations. They have been deprecated
   for half a year and nobody has complained.

 - The series "mm: further simplify VMA merge operation" from Lorenzo
   Stoakes implements numerous simplifications in this area. No runtime
   effects are anticipated.

 - The series "mm/madvise: remove redundant mmap_lock operations from
   process_madvise()" from SeongJae Park rationalizes the locking in the
   madvise() implementation. Performance gains of 20-25% were observed
   in one MADV_DONTNEED microbenchmark.

 - The series "Tiny cleanup and improvements about SWAP code" from
   Baoquan He contains a number of touchups to issues which Baoquan
   noticed when working on the swap code.

 - The series "mm: kmemleak: Usability improvements" from Catalin
   Marinas implements a couple of improvements to the kmemleak
   user-visible output.

 - The series "mm/damon/paddr: fix large folios access and schemes
   handling" from Usama Arif provides a couple of fixes for DAMON's
   handling of large folios.

 - The series "mm/damon/core: fix wrong and/or useless damos_walk()
   behaviors" from SeongJae Park fixes a few issues with the accuracy of
   kdamond's walking of DAMON regions.

 - The series "expose mapping wrprotect, fix fb_defio use" from Lorenzo
   Stoakes changes the interaction between framebuffer deferred-io and
   core MM. No functional changes are anticipated - this is preparatory
   work for the future removal of page structure fields.

 - The series "mm/damon: add support for hugepage_size DAMOS filter"
   from Usama Arif adds a DAMOS filter which permits the filtering by
   huge page sizes.

 - The series "mm: permit guard regions for file-backed/shmem mappings"
   from Lorenzo Stoakes extends the guard region feature from its
   present "anon mappings only" state. The feature now covers shmem and
   file-backed mappings.

 - The series "mm: batched unmap lazyfree large folios during
   reclamation" from Barry Song cleans up and speeds up the unmapping
   for pte-mapped large folios.

 - The series "reimplement per-vma lock as a refcount" from Suren
   Baghdasaryan puts the vm_lock back into the vma. Our reasons for
   pulling it out were largely bogus and that change made the code more
   messy. This patchset provides small (0-10%) improvements on one
   microbenchmark.

 - The series "Docs/mm/damon: misc DAMOS filters documentation fixes and
   improves" from SeongJae Park does some maintenance work on the DAMON
   docs.

 - The series "hugetlb/CMA improvements for large systems" from Frank
   van der Linden addresses a pile of issues which have been observed
   when using CMA on large machines.

 - The series "mm/damon: introduce DAMOS filter type for unmapped pages"
   from SeongJae Park enables users of DMAON/DAMOS to filter my the
   page's mapped/unmapped status.

 - The series "zsmalloc/zram: there be preemption" from Sergey
   Senozhatsky teaches zram to run its compression and decompression
   operations preemptibly.

 - The series "selftests/mm: Some cleanups from trying to run them" from
   Brendan Jackman fixes a pile of unrelated issues which Brendan
   encountered while runnimg our selftests.

 - The series "fs/proc/task_mmu: add guard region bit to pagemap" from
   Lorenzo Stoakes permits userspace to use /proc/pid/pagemap to
   determine whether a particular page is a guard page.

 - The series "mm, swap: remove swap slot cache" from Kairui Song
   removes the swap slot cache from the allocation path - it simply
   wasn't being effective.

 - The series "mm: cleanups for device-exclusive entries (hmm)" from
   David Hildenbrand implements a number of unrelated cleanups in this
   code.

 - The series "mm: Rework generic PTDUMP configs" from Anshuman Khandual
   implements a number of preparatoty cleanups to the GENERIC_PTDUMP
   Kconfig logic.

 - The series "mm/damon: auto-tune aggregation interval" from SeongJae
   Park implements a feedback-driven automatic tuning feature for
   DAMON's aggregation interval tuning.

 - The series "Fix lazy mmu mode" from Ryan Roberts fixes some issues in
   powerpc, sparc and x86 lazy MMU implementations. Ryan did this in
   preparation for implementing lazy mmu mode for arm64 to optimize
   vmalloc.

 - The series "mm/page_alloc: Some clarifications for migratetype
   fallback" from Brendan Jackman reworks some commentary to make the
   code easier to follow.

 - The series "page_counter cleanup and size reduction" from Shakeel
   Butt cleans up the page_counter code and fixes a size increase which
   we accidentally added late last year.

 - The series "Add a command line option that enables control of how
   many threads should be used to allocate huge pages" from Thomas
   Prescher does that. It allows the careful operator to significantly
   reduce boot time by tuning the parallalization of huge page
   initialization.

 - The series "Fix calculations in trace_balance_dirty_pages() for cgwb"
   from Tang Yizhou fixes the tracing output from the dirty page
   balancing code.

 - The series "mm/damon: make allow filters after reject filters useful
   and intuitive" from SeongJae Park improves the handling of allow and
   reject filters. Behaviour is made more consistent and the documention
   is updated accordingly.

 - The series "Switch zswap to object read/write APIs" from Yosry Ahmed
   updates zswap to the new object read/write APIs and thus permits the
   removal of some legacy code from zpool and zsmalloc.

 - The series "Some trivial cleanups for shmem" from Baolin Wang does as
   it claims.

 - The series "fs/dax: Fix ZONE_DEVICE page reference counts" from
   Alistair Popple regularizes the weird ZONE_DEVICE page refcount
   handling in DAX, permittig the removal of a number of special-case
   checks.

   preparatoty refactoring and cleanup of the mremap() code.

 - The series "mm: MM owner tracking for large folios (!hugetlb) +
   CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT" from David Hildenbrand reworks the manner in
   which we determine whether a large folio is known to be mapped
   exclusively into a single MM.

 - The series "mm/damon: add sysfs dirs for managing DAMOS filters based
   on handling layers" from SeongJae Park adds a couple of new sysfs
   directories to ease the management of DAMON/DAMOS filters.

 - The series "arch, mm: reduce code duplication in mem_init()" from
   Mike Rapoport consolidates many per-arch implementations of
   mem_init() into code generic code, where that is practical.

 - The series "mm/damon/sysfs: commit parameters online via
   damon_call()" from SeongJae Park continues the cleaning up of sysfs
   access to DAMON internal data.

 - The series "mm: page_ext: Introduce new iteration API" from Luiz
   Capitulino reworks the page_ext initialization to fix a boot-time
   crash which was observed with an unusual combination of compile and
   cmdline options.

 - The series "Buddy allocator like (or non-uniform) folio split" from
   Zi Yan reworks the code to split a folio into smaller folios. The
   main benefit is lessened memory consumption: fewer post-split folios
   are generated.

 - The series "Minimize xa_node allocation during xarry split" from Zi
   Yan reduces the number of xarray xa_nodes which are generated during
   an xarray split.

 - The series "drivers/base/memory: Two cleanups" from Gavin Shan

3ba7dfb8da RCU pull request for v6.15
This pull request contains the following branches:
 
 docs.2025.02.04a:
  - Add broken-timing possibility to stallwarn.rst.
  - Improve discussion of this_cpu_ptr(), add raw_cpu_ptr().
  - Document self-propagating callbacks.
  - Point call_srcu() to call_rcu() for detailed memory ordering.
  - Add CONFIG_RCU_LAZY delays to call_rcu() kernel-doc header.
  - Clarify RCU_LAZY and RCU_LAZY_DEFAULT_OFF help text.
  - Remove references to old grace-period-wait primitives.
 
 srcu.2025.02.05a:
  - Introduce srcu_read_{un,}lock_fast(), which is similar to
    srcu_read_{un,}lock_lite(): avoid smp_mb()s in lock and unlock at the
    cost of calling synchronize_rcu() in synchronize_srcu(). Moreover, by
    returning the percpu offset of the counter at srcu_read_lock_fast()
    time, srcu_read_unlock_fast() can save extra pointer dereferencing,
    which makes it faster than srcu_read_{un,}lock_lite().
    srcu_read_{un,}lock_fast() are intended to replace
    rcu_read_{un,}lock_trace() if possible.
 
 torture.2025.02.05a:
  - Add get_torture_init_jiffies() to return the start time of the test.
  - Add a test_boost_holdoff module parameter to allow delaying boosting
    tests when building rcutorture as built-in.
  - Add grace period sequence number logging at the beginning and end of
    failure/close-call results.
  - Switch to hexadecimal for the expedited grace period sequence number
    in the rcu_exp_grace_period trace point.
  - Make cur_ops->format_gp_seqs take buffer length.
  - Move RCU_TORTURE_TEST_{CHK_RDR_STATE,LOG_CPU} to bool.
  - Complain when invalid SRCU reader_flavor is specified.
  - Add FORCE_NEED_SRCU_NMI_SAFE Kconfig for testing, which forces SRCU
    uses atomics even when percpu ops are NMI safe, and use the Kconfig
    for SRCU lockdep testing.
 
 misc.2025.03.04a:
  - Split rcu_report_exp_cpu_mult() mask parameter and use for tracing.
  - Remove READ_ONCE() for rdp->gpwrap access in __note_gp_changes().
  - Fix get_state_synchronize_rcu_full() GP-start detection.
  - Move RCU Tasks self-tests to core_initcall().
  - Print segment lengths in show_rcu_nocb_gp_state().
  - Make RCU watch ct_kernel_exit_state() warning.
  - Flush console log from kernel_power_off().
  - rcutorture: Allow a negative value for nfakewriters.
  - rcu: Update TREE05.boot to test normal synchronize_rcu().
  - rcu: Use _full() API to debug synchronize_rcu().
 
 lazypreempt.2025.03.04a: Make RCU handle PREEMPT_LAZY better:
  - Fix header guard for rcu_all_qs().
  - rcu: Rename PREEMPT_AUTO to PREEMPT_LAZY.
  - Update __cond_resched comment about RCU quiescent states.
  - Handle unstable rdp in rcu_read_unlock_strict().
  - Handle quiescent states for PREEMPT_RCU=n, PREEMPT_COUNT=y.
  - osnoise: Provide quiescent states.
  - Adjust rcutorture with possible PREEMPT_RCU=n && PREEMPT_COUNT=y
    combination.
  - Limit PREEMPT_RCU configurations.
  - Make rcutorture senario TREE07 and senario TREE10 use PREEMPT_LAZY=y.

3fec86f8aa xarray: add xas_try_split() to split a multi-index entry
Patch series "Buddy allocator like (or non-uniform) folio split", v10.

This patchset adds a new buddy allocator like (or non-uniform) large folio
split from a order-n folio to order-m with m < n.  It reduces

1. the total number of after-split folios from 2^(n-m) to n-m+1;

2. the amount of memory needed for multi-index xarray split from 2^(n/6-m/6) to
   n/6-m/6, assuming XA_CHUNK_SHIFT=6;

3. keep more large folios after a split from all order-m folios to
   order-(n-1) to order-m folios.

For example, to split an order-9 to order-0, folio split generates 10 (or
11 for anonymous memory) folios instead of 512, allocates 1 xa_node
instead of 8, and leaves 1 order-8, 1 order-7, ..., 1 order-1 and 2
order-0 folios (or 4 order-0 for anonymous memory) instead of 512 order-0
folios.

Instead of duplicating existing split_huge_page*() code, __folio_split()
is introduced as the shared backend code for both
split_huge_page_to_list_to_order() and folio_split().  __folio_split() can
support both uniform split and buddy allocator like (or non-uniform)
split.  All existing split_huge_page*() users can be gradually converted
to use folio_split() if possible.  In this patchset, I converted
truncate_inode_partial_folio() to use folio_split().

xfstests quick group passed for both tmpfs and xfs.  I also
semi-replicated Hugh's test[12] and ran it without any issue for almost 24

This patch (of 8):

A preparation patch for non-uniform folio split, which always split a
folio into half iteratively, and minimal xarray entry split.

Currently, xas_split_alloc() and xas_split() always split all slots from a
multi-index entry.  They cost the same number of xa_node as the
to-be-split slots.  For example, to split an order-9 entry, which takes
2^(9-6)=8 slots, assuming XA_CHUNK_SHIFT is 6 (!CONFIG_BASE_SMALL), 8
xa_node are needed.  Instead xas_try_split() is intended to be used
iteratively to split the order-9 entry into 2 order-8 entries, then split
one order-8 entry, based on the given index, to 2 order-7 entries, ...,
and split one order-1 entry to 2 order-0 entries.  When splitting the
order-6 entry and a new xa_node is needed, xas_try_split() will try to
allocate one if possible.  As a result, xas_try_split() would only need 1
xa_node instead of 8.

When a new xa_node is needed during the split, xas_try_split() can try to
allocate one but no more.  -ENOMEM will be return if a node cannot be
allocated.  -EINVAL will be return if a sibling node is split or cascade
split happens, where two or more new nodes are needed, and these are not
supported by xas_try_split().

xas_split_alloc() and xas_split() split an order-9 to order-0:

7f8ceea0c5 refcount: provide ops for cases when object's memory can be reused
For speculative lookups where a successful inc_not_zero() pins the object,
but where we still need to double check if the object acquired is indeed
the one we set out to acquire (identity check), needs this validation to
happen *after* the increment.  Similarly, when a new object is initialized
and its memory might have been previously occupied by another object, all
stores to initialize the object should happen *before* refcount
initialization.

Notably SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU is one such an example when this ordering is
required for reference counting.

Add refcount_{add|inc}_not_zero_acquire() to guarantee the proper ordering
between acquiring a reference count on an object and performing the
identity check for that object.

Add refcount_set_release() to guarantee proper ordering between stores
initializing object attributes and the store initializing the refcount. 
refcount_set_release() should be done after all other object attributes
are initialized.  Once refcount_set_release() is called, the object should
be considered visible to other tasks even if it was not yet added into an
object collection normally used to discover it.  This is because other
tasks might have discovered the object previously occupying the same
memory and after memory reuse they can succeed in taking refcount for the
new object and start using it.

Object reuse example to consider:

consumer:
    obj = lookup(collection, key);
    if (!refcount_inc_not_zero_acquire(&obj->ref))
        return;
    if (READ_ONCE(obj->key) != key) { /* identity check */
        put_ref(obj);
        return;
    }
    use(obj->value);

                 producer:
                     remove(collection, obj->key);
                     if (!refcount_dec_and_test(&obj->ref))
                         return;
                     obj->key = KEY_INVALID;
                     free(obj);
                     obj = malloc(); /* obj is reused */
                     obj->key = new_key;
                     obj->value = new_value;
                     refcount_set_release(obj->ref, 1);
                     add(collection, new_key, obj);

refcount_{add|inc}_not_zero_acquire() is required to prevent the following
reordering when refcount_inc_not_zero() is used instead:

consumer:
    obj = lookup(collection, key);
    if (READ_ONCE(obj->key) != key) { /* reordered identity check */
        put_ref(obj);
        return;
    }
                 producer:
                     remove(collection, obj->key);
                     if (!refcount_dec_and_test(&obj->ref))
                         return;
                     obj->key = KEY_INVALID;
                     free(obj);
                     obj = malloc(); /* obj is reused */
                     obj->key = new_key;
                     obj->value = new_value;
                     refcount_set_release(obj->ref, 1);
                     add(collection, new_key, obj);

    if (!refcount_inc_not_zero(&obj->ref))
        return;
    use(obj->value); /* USING WRONG OBJECT */

refcount_set_release() is required to prevent the following reordering
when refcount_set() is used instead:

consumer:
    obj = lookup(collection, key);

                 producer:
                     remove(collection, obj->key);
                     if (!refcount_dec_and_test(&obj->ref))
                         return;
                     obj->key = KEY_INVALID;
                     free(obj);
                     obj = malloc(); /* obj is reused */
                     obj->key = new_key; /* new_key == old_key */
                     refcount_set(obj->ref, 1);

    if (!refcount_inc_not_zero_acquire(&obj->ref))
        return;
    if (READ_ONCE(obj->key) != key) { /* pass since new_key == old_key */
        put_ref(obj);
        return;
    }
    use(obj->value); /* USING STALE obj->value */

                     obj->value = new_value; /* reordered store */
                     add(collection, key, obj);

0ad9617c78 Networking changes for 6.14.
Core
 ----
 
  - More core refactoring to reduce the RTNL lock contention,
    including preparatory work for the per-network namespace RTNL lock,
    replacing RTNL lock with a per device-one to protect NAPI-related
    net device data and moving synchronize_net() calls outside such
    lock.
 
  - Extend drop reasons usage, adding net scheduler, AF_UNIX, bridge and
    more specific TCP coverage.
 
  - Reduce network namespace tear-down time by removing per-subsystems
    synchronize_net() in tipc and sched.
 
  - Add flow label selector support for fib rules, allowing traffic
    redirection based on such header field.
 
 Netfilter
 ---------
 
  - Do not remove netdev basechain when last device is gone, allowing
    netdev basechains without devices.
 
  - Revisit the flowtable teardown strategy, dealing better with fin,
    reset and re-open events.
 
  - Scale-up IP-vs connection dumping by avoiding linear search on
    each restart.
 
 Protocols
 ---------
 
  - A significant XDP socket refactor, consolidating and optimizing
    several helpers into the core
 
  - Better scaling of ICMP rate-limiting, by removing false-sharing in
    inet peers handling.
 
  - Introduces netlink notifications for multicast IPv4 and IPv6
    address changes.
 
  - Add ipsec support for IP-TFS/AggFrag encapsulation, allowing
    aggregation and fragmentation of the inner IP.
 
  - Add sysctl to configure TIME-WAIT reuse delay for TCP sockets,
    to avoid local port exhaustion issues when the average connection
    lifetime is very short.
 
  - Support updating keys (re-keying) for connections using kernel
    TLS (for TLS 1.3 only).
 
  - Support ipv4-mapped ipv6 address clients in smc-r v2.
 
  - Add support for jumbo data packet transmission in RxRPC sockets,
    gluing multiple data packets in a single UDP packet.
 
  - Support RxRPC RACK-TLP to manage packet loss and retransmission in
    conjunction with the congestion control algorithm.
 
 Driver API
 ----------
 
  - Introduce a unified and structured interface for reporting PHY
    statistics, exposing consistent data across different H/W via
    ethtool.
 
  - Make timestamping selectable, allow the user to select the desired
    hwtstamp provider (PHY or MAC) administratively.
 
  - Add support for configuring a header-data-split threshold (HDS)
    value via ethtool, to deal with partial or buggy H/W implementation.
 
  - Consolidate DSA drivers Energy Efficiency Ethernet support.
 
  - Add EEE management to phylink, making use of the phylib
    implementation.
 
  - Add phylib support for in-band capabilities negotiation.
 
  - Simplify how phylib-enabled mac drivers expose the supported
    interfaces.
 
 Tests and tooling
 -----------------
 
  - Make the YNL tool package-friendly to make it easier to deploy it
    separately from the kernel.
 
  - Increase TCP selftest coverage importing several packetdrill
    test-cases.
 
  - Regenerate the ethtool uapi header from the YNL spec,
    to ease maintenance and future development.
 
  - Add YNL support for decoding the link types used in net
    self-tests, allowing a single build to run both net and
    drivers/net.

Merge tag 'net-next-6.14' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next

Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
 "This is slightly smaller than usual, with the most interesting work
  being still around RTNL scope reduction.

  Core:

   - More core refactoring to reduce the RTNL lock contention, including
     preparatory work for the per-network namespace RTNL lock, replacing
     RTNL lock with a per device-one to protect NAPI-related net device
     data and moving synchronize_net() calls outside such lock.

   - Extend drop reasons usage, adding net scheduler, AF_UNIX, bridge
     and more specific TCP coverage.

   - Reduce network namespace tear-down time by removing per-subsystems
     synchronize_net() in tipc and sched.

   - Add flow label selector support for fib rules, allowing traffic
     redirection based on such header field.

  Netfilter:

   - Do not remove netdev basechain when last device is gone, allowing
     netdev basechains without devices.

   - Revisit the flowtable teardown strategy, dealing better with fin,
     reset and re-open events.

   - Scale-up IP-vs connection dumping by avoiding linear search on each
     restart.

  Protocols:

   - A significant XDP socket refactor, consolidating and optimizing
     several helpers into the core

   - Better scaling of ICMP rate-limiting, by removing false-sharing in
     inet peers handling.

   - Introduces netlink notifications for multicast IPv4 and IPv6
     address changes.

   - Add ipsec support for IP-TFS/AggFrag encapsulation, allowing
     aggregation and fragmentation of the inner IP.

   - Add sysctl to configure TIME-WAIT reuse delay for TCP sockets, to
     avoid local port exhaustion issues when the average connection
     lifetime is very short.

   - Support updating keys (re-keying) for connections using kernel TLS
     (for TLS 1.3 only).

   - Support ipv4-mapped ipv6 address clients in smc-r v2.

   - Add support for jumbo data packet transmission in RxRPC sockets,
     gluing multiple data packets in a single UDP packet.

   - Support RxRPC RACK-TLP to manage packet loss and retransmission in
     conjunction with the congestion control algorithm.

  Driver API:

   - Introduce a unified and structured interface for reporting PHY
     statistics, exposing consistent data across different H/W via
     ethtool.

   - Make timestamping selectable, allow the user to select the desired
     hwtstamp provider (PHY or MAC) administratively.

   - Add support for configuring a header-data-split threshold (HDS)
     value via ethtool, to deal with partial or buggy H/W
     implementation.

   - Consolidate DSA drivers Energy Efficiency Ethernet support.

   - Add EEE management to phylink, making use of the phylib
     implementation.

   - Add phylib support for in-band capabilities negotiation.

   - Simplify how phylib-enabled mac drivers expose the supported
     interfaces.

  Tests and tooling:

   - Make the YNL tool package-friendly to make it easier to deploy it
     separately from the kernel.

   - Increase TCP selftest coverage importing several packetdrill
     test-cases.

   - Regenerate the ethtool uapi header from the YNL spec, to ease
     maintenance and future development.

   - Add YNL support for decoding the link types used in net self-tests,
     allowing a single build to run both net and drivers/net.

Also when defined that early there is no need for an #undef, so drop

b168ed458d
kernel/cgroup: Add "dmem" memory accounting cgroup
This code is based on the RDMA and misc cgroup initially, but now
uses page_counter. It uses the same min/low/max semantics as the memory
cgroup as a result.

There's a small mismatch as TTM uses u64, and page_counter long pages.
In practice it's not a problem. 32-bits systems don't really come with
>=4GB cards and as long as we're consistently wrong with units, it's
fine. The device page size may not be in the same units as kernel page
size, and each region might also have a different page size (VRAM vs GART
for example).

The interface is simple:
- Call dmem_cgroup_register_region()
- Use dmem_cgroup_try_charge to check if you can allocate a chunk of memory,
  use dmem_cgroup__uncharge when freeing it. This may return an error code,
  or -EAGAIN when the cgroup limit is reached. In that case a reference
  to the limiting pool is returned.
- The limiting cs can be used as compare function for
  dmem_cgroup_state_evict_valuable.
- After having evicted enough, drop reference to limiting cs with
  dmem_cgroup_pool_state_put.

This API allows you to limit device resources with cgroups.
You can see the supported cards in /sys/fs/cgroup/dmem.capacity
You need to echo +dmem to cgroup.subtree_control, and then you can
partition device memory.

ceb8bf2cea module: Convert default symbol namespace to string literal
Commit cdd30ebb1b ("module: Convert symbol namespace to string
literal") only converted MODULE_IMPORT_NS() and EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS(),
leaving DEFAULT_SYMBOL_NAMESPACE as a macro expansion.

This commit converts DEFAULT_SYMBOL_NAMESPACE in the same way to avoid
annoyance for the default namespace as well.

This reverts the misconversions introduced by commit cdd30ebb1b
("module: Convert symbol namespace to string literal").

The affected descriptions refer to MODULE_IMPORT_NS() tags in general,
rather than suggesting the use of the empty string ("") as the
namespace.

cdd30ebb1b module: Convert symbol namespace to string literal
Clean up the existing export namespace code along the same lines of
commit 33def8498f ("treewide: Convert macro and uses of __section(foo)
to __section("foo")") and for the same reason, it is not desired for the
namespace argument to be a macro expansion itself.

fcc79e1714 Networking changes for 6.13.
The most significant set of changes is the per netns RTNL. The new
 behavior is disabled by default, regression risk should be contained.
 
 Notably the new config knob PTP_1588_CLOCK_VMCLOCK will inherit its
 default value from PTP_1588_CLOCK_KVM, as the first is intended to be
 a more reliable replacement for the latter.
 
 Core
 ----
 
  - Started a very large, in-progress, effort to make the RTNL lock
    scope per network-namespace, thus reducing the lock contention
    significantly in the containerized use-case, comprising:
    - RCU-ified some relevant slices of the FIB control path
    - introduce basic per netns locking helpers
    - namespacified the IPv4 address hash table
    - remove rtnl_register{,_module}() in favour of rtnl_register_many()
    - refactor rtnl_{new,del,set}link() moving as much validation as
      possible out of RTNL lock
    - convert all phonet doit() and dumpit() handlers to RCU
    - convert IPv4 addresses manipulation to per-netns RTNL
    - convert virtual interface creation to per-netns RTNL
    the per-netns lock infra is guarded by the CONFIG_DEBUG_NET_SMALL_RTNL
    knob, disabled by default ad interim.
 
  - Introduce NAPI suspension, to efficiently switching between busy
    polling (NAPI processing suspended) and normal processing.
 
  - Migrate the IPv4 routing input, output and control path from direct
    ToS usage to DSCP macros. This is a work in progress to make ECN
    handling consistent and reliable.
 
  - Add drop reasons support to the IPv4 rotue input path, allowing
    better introspection in case of packets drop.
 
  - Make FIB seqnum lockless, dropping RTNL protection for read
    access.
 
  - Make inet{,v6} addresses hashing less predicable.
 
  - Allow providing timestamp OPT_ID via cmsg, to correlate TX packets
    and timestamps
 
 Things we sprinkled into general kernel code
 --------------------------------------------
 
  - Add small file operations for debugfs, to reduce the struct ops size.
 
  - Refactoring and optimization for the implementation of page_frag API,
    This is a preparatory work to consolidate the page_frag
    implementation.
 
 Netfilter
 ---------
 
  - Optimize set element transactions to reduce memory consumption
 
  - Extended netlink error reporting for attribute parser failure.
 
  - Make legacy xtables configs user selectable, giving users
    the option to configure iptables without enabling any other config.
 
  - Address a lot of false-positive RCU issues, pointed by recent
    CI improvements.
 
 BPF
 ---
 
  - Put xsk sockets on a struct diet and add various cleanups. Overall,
    this helps to bump performance by 12% for some workloads.
 
  - Extend BPF selftests to increase coverage of XDP features in
    combination with BPF cpumap.
 
  - Optimize and homogenize bpf_csum_diff helper for all archs and also
    add a batch of new BPF selftests for it.
 
  - Extend netkit with an option to delegate skb->{mark,priority}
    scrubbing to its BPF program.
 
  - Make the bpf_get_netns_cookie() helper available also to tc(x) BPF
    programs.
 
 Protocols
 ---------
 
  - Introduces 4-tuple hash for connected udp sockets, speeding-up
    significantly connected sockets lookup.
 
  - Add a fastpath for some TCP timers that usually expires after close,
    the socket lock contention.
 
  - Add inbound and outbound xfrm state caches to speed up state lookups.
 
  - Avoid sending MPTCP advertisements on stale subflows, reducing
    risks on loosing them.
 
  - Make neighbours table flushing more scalable, maintaining per device
    neigh lists.
 
 Driver API
 ----------
 
  - Introduce a unified interface to configure transmission H/W shaping,
    and expose it to user-space via generic-netlink.
 
  - Add support for per-NAPI config via netlink. This makes napi
    configuration persistent across queues removal and re-creation.
    Requires driver updates, currently supported drivers are:
    nVidia/Mellanox mlx4 and mlx5, Broadcom brcm and Intel ice.
 
  - Add ethtool support for writing SFP / PHY firmware blocks.
 
  - Track RSS context allocation from ethtool core.
 
  - Implement support for mirroring to DSA CPU port, via TC mirror
    offload.
 
  - Consolidate FDB updates notification, to avoid duplicates on
    device-specific entries.
 
  - Expose DPLL clock quality level to the user-space.
 
  - Support master-slave PHY config via device tree.
 
 Tests and tooling
 -----------------
 
  - forwarding: introduce deferred commands, to simplify
    the cleanup phase
 
 Drivers
 -------
 
  - Updated several drivers - Amazon vNic, Google vNic, Microsoft vNic,
    Intel e1000e and Broadcom Tigon3 - to use netdev-genl to link the
    IRQs and queues to NAPI IDs, allowing busy polling and better
    introspection.

Merge tag 'net-next-6.13' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next

Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
 "The most significant set of changes is the per netns RTNL. The new
  behavior is disabled by default, regression risk should be contained.

  Notably the new config knob PTP_1588_CLOCK_VMCLOCK will inherit its
  default value from PTP_1588_CLOCK_KVM, as the first is intended to be
  a more reliable replacement for the latter.

  Core:

   - Started a very large, in-progress, effort to make the RTNL lock
     scope per network-namespace, thus reducing the lock contention
     significantly in the containerized use-case, comprising:
       - RCU-ified some relevant slices of the FIB control path
       - introduce basic per netns locking helpers
       - namespacified the IPv4 address hash table
       - remove rtnl_register{,_module}() in favour of
         rtnl_register_many()
       - refactor rtnl_{new,del,set}link() moving as much validation as
         possible out of RTNL lock
       - convert all phonet doit() and dumpit() handlers to RCU
       - convert IPv4 addresses manipulation to per-netns RTNL
       - convert virtual interface creation to per-netns RTNL
     the per-netns lock infrastructure is guarded by the
     CONFIG_DEBUG_NET_SMALL_RTNL knob, disabled by default ad interim.

   - Introduce NAPI suspension, to efficiently switching between busy
     polling (NAPI processing suspended) and normal processing.

   - Migrate the IPv4 routing input, output and control path from direct
     ToS usage to DSCP macros. This is a work in progress to make ECN
     handling consistent and reliable.

   - Add drop reasons support to the IPv4 rotue input path, allowing
     better introspection in case of packets drop.

   - Make FIB seqnum lockless, dropping RTNL protection for read access.

   - Make inet{,v6} addresses hashing less predicable.

   - Allow providing timestamp OPT_ID via cmsg, to correlate TX packets
     and timestamps

  Things we sprinkled into general kernel code:

   - Add small file operations for debugfs, to reduce the struct ops
     size.

   - Refactoring and optimization for the implementation of page_frag
     API, This is a preparatory work to consolidate the page_frag
     implementation.

  Netfilter:

   - Optimize set element transactions to reduce memory consumption

   - Extended netlink error reporting for attribute parser failure.

   - Make legacy xtables configs user selectable, giving users the
     option to configure iptables without enabling any other config.

   - Address a lot of false-positive RCU issues, pointed by recent CI
     improvements.

  BPF:

   - Put xsk sockets on a struct diet and add various cleanups. Overall,
     this helps to bump performance by 12% for some workloads.

   - Extend BPF selftests to increase coverage of XDP features in
     combination with BPF cpumap.

   - Optimize and homogenize bpf_csum_diff helper for all archs and also
     add a batch of new BPF selftests for it.

   - Extend netkit with an option to delegate skb->{mark,priority}
     scrubbing to its BPF program.

   - Make the bpf_get_netns_cookie() helper available also to tc(x) BPF
     programs.

  Protocols:

   - Introduces 4-tuple hash for connected udp sockets, speeding-up
     significantly connected sockets lookup.

   - Add a fastpath for some TCP timers that usually expires after
     close, the socket lock contention.

   - Add inbound and outbound xfrm state caches to speed up state
     lookups.

   - Avoid sending MPTCP advertisements on stale subflows, reducing
     risks on loosing them.

   - Make neighbours table flushing more scalable, maintaining per
     device neigh lists.

  Driver API:

   - Introduce a unified interface to configure transmission H/W
     shaping, and expose it to user-space via generic-netlink.

   - Add support for per-NAPI config via netlink. This makes napi
     configuration persistent across queues removal and re-creation.
     Requires driver updates, currently supported drivers are:
     nVidia/Mellanox mlx4 and mlx5, Broadcom brcm and Intel ice.

   - Add ethtool support for writing SFP / PHY firmware blocks.

   - Track RSS context allocation from ethtool core.

   - Implement support for mirroring to DSA CPU port, via TC mirror
     offload.

   - Consolidate FDB updates notification, to avoid duplicates on
     device-specific entries.

   - Expose DPLL clock quality level to the user-space.

   - Support master-slave PHY config via device tree.

  Tests and tooling:

   - forwarding: introduce deferred commands, to simplify the cleanup
     phase

  Drivers:

   - Updated several drivers - Amazon vNic, Google vNic, Microsoft vNic,
     Intel e1000e and Broadcom Tigon3 - to use netdev-genl to link the
     IRQs and queues to NAPI IDs, allowing busy polling and better
     introspection.

d6b6d39054 workqueue: Changes for v6.13
- Maximum concurrency limit of 512 which was set a long time ago is too low
   now. A legitimate use (BPF cgroup release) of system_wq could saturate it
   under stress test conditions leading to false dependencies and deadlocks.
   While the offending use was switched to a dedicated workqueue, use the
   opportunity to bump WQ_MAX_ACTIVE four fold and document that system
   workqueue shouldn't be saturated. Workqueue should add at least a warning
   mechanism for cases where system workqueues are saturated.
 
 - Recent workqueue updates to support more flexible execution topology made
   unbound workqueues use per-cpu worker pool frontends which pushed up
   workqueue flush overhead. As consecutive CPUs are likely to be pointing to
   the same worker pool, reduce overhead by switching locks only when
   necessary.

 - Some maintenance of the Japanese and Italian translations as well.
 
 - The removal of the venerable "dontdiff" file.  It has long outlived its
