Significant patch series in this pull request:
- The 2 patch series "squashfs: Remove page->mapping references" from
Matthew Wilcox gets us closer to being able to remove page->mapping.
- The 5 patch series "relayfs: misc changes" from Jason Xing does some
maintenance and minor feature addition work in relayfs.
- The 5 patch series "kdump: crashkernel reservation from CMA" from Jiri
Bohac switches us from static preallocation of the kdump crashkernel's
working memory over to dynamic allocation. So the difficulty of
a-priori estimation of the second kernel's needs is removed and the
first kernel obtains extra memory.
- The 5 patch series "generalize panic_print's dump function to be used
by other kernel parts" from Feng Tang implements some consolidation and
rationalizatio of the various ways in which a faiing kernel splats
information at the operator.

scripts/gdb/symbols: make lx-symbols skip the s390 decompressor
When one starts QEMU with the -S flag and attaches GDB, the kernel is
not yet loaded, and the current instruction is an entry point to the
decompressor. In case the intention is to debug the early kernel boot,
and not the decompressor, e.g., put a breakpoint on some kernel
function and see all the invocations, one has to skip the decompressor.
There are many ways to do this, and so far people wrote private scripts
or memorized certain command sequences.
Make it work out of the box like this:
$ gdb -ex 'target remote :6812' -ex 'source vmlinux-gdb.py' vmlinux
Remote debugging using :6812
0x0000000000010000 in ?? ()
(gdb) lx-symbols
loading vmlinux
(gdb) x/i $pc
=> 0x3ffe0100000 <startup_continue>: lghi %r2,0
Implement this by reading the address of the jump_to_kernel() function
from the lowcore, and step until DAT is turned on.

scripts/gdb: de-reference per-CPU MCE interrupts
The per-CPU MCE interrupts are looked up by reference and need to be
de-referenced before printing, otherwise we print the addresses of the
variables instead of their contents:
MCE: 18379471554386948492 Machine check exceptions
MCP: 18379471554386948488 Machine check polls

scripts/gdb/symbols: determine KASLR offset on s390 during early boot
Using lx-symbols during s390 early boot fails with:
Error occurred in Python: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xcb in position 0: invalid continuation byte
The reason is that s390 decompressor's startup_kernel() does not create
vmcoreinfo note, and sets vmcore_info to kernel's physical base. This
confuses get_vmcore_s390().
Fix by handling this special case. Extract vm_layout.kaslr_offset from
the kernel image in physical memory, which is placed there by the
decompressor using the __bootdata_preserved mechanism, and generate a
synthetic vmcoreinfo note from it.

scripts/gdb: fix kgdb probing on single-core systems
Patch series "scripts/gdb: Fixes related to lx_per_cpu()". These patches (1) fix kgdb detection on systems featuring a single CPU and (2) update the documentation to reflect the current usage of lx_per_cpu() and update an outdated example of its usage. This patch (of 2): When requested the list of threads via qfThreadInfo, gdb_cmd_query in kernel/debug/gdbstub.c first returns "shadow" threads for CPUs followed by the actual tasks in the system. Extended qThreadExtraInfo queries yield "shadowCPU%d" as the name for the CPU core threads. This behavior is used by get_gdbserver_type() to probe for KGDB by matching the name for the thread 2 against "shadowCPU". This breaks down on single-core systems, where thread 2 is the first nonshadow thread. Request the name for thread 1 instead. As GDB assigns thread IDs in the order of their appearance, it is safe to assume shadowCPU0 at ID 1 as long as CPU0 is not hotplugged. Before: (gdb) info threads Id Target Id Frame 1 Thread 4294967294 (shadowCPU0) kgdb_breakpoint () * 2 Thread 1 (swapper/0) kgdb_breakpoint () 3 Thread 2 (kthreadd) 0x0000000000000000 in ?? () ...

scripts/gdb/linux/symbols.py: address changes to module_sect_attrs
When loading symbols from kernel modules we used to iterate from 0 to module_sect_attrs::nsections, in order to retrieve their name and address. However module_sect_attrs::nsections has been removed from the struct by a previous commit. Re-arrange the iteration by accessing all items in module_sect_attrs::grp::bin_attrs[] until NULL is found (it's a NULL terminated array). At the same time the symbol address cannot be extracted from module_sect_attrs::attrs[]::address anymore because it has also been deleted. Fetch it from module_sect_attrs::grp::bin_attrs[]::private as described in |

scripts/gdb: add $lx_per_cpu_ptr()
We currently have $lx_per_cpu() which works fine for stuff that kernel code would access via per_cpu(). But this doesn't work for stuff that kernel code accesses via per_cpu_ptr(): (gdb) p $lx_per_cpu(node_data[1].node_zones[2]->per_cpu_pageset) Cannot access memory at address 0xffff11105fbd6c28 This is because we take the address of the pointer and use that as the offset, instead of using the stored value. Add a GDB version that mirrors the kernel API, which uses the pointer value. To be consistent with per_cpu_ptr(), we need to return the pointer value instead of dereferencing it for the user. Therefore, move the existing dereference out of the per_cpu() Python helper and do that only in the $lx_per_cpu() implementation.

kbuild: use $(src) instead of $(srctree)/$(src) for source directory
Kbuild conventionally uses $(obj)/ for generated files, and $(src)/ for
checked-in source files. It is merely a convention without any functional
difference. In fact, $(obj) and $(src) are exactly the same, as defined
in scripts/Makefile.build:
src := $(obj)
When the kernel is built in a separate output directory, $(src) does
not accurately reflect the source directory location. While Kbuild
resolves this discrepancy by specifying VPATH=$(srctree) to search for
source files, it does not cover all cases. For example, when adding a
header search path for local headers, -I$(srctree)/$(src) is typically
passed to the compiler.
This introduces inconsistency between upstream and downstream Makefiles
because $(src) is used instead of $(srctree)/$(src) for the latter.
To address this inconsistency, this commit changes the semantics of
$(src) so that it always points to the directory in the source tree.
Going forward, the variables used in Makefiles will have the following
meanings:
$(obj) - directory in the object tree
$(src) - directory in the source tree (changed by this commit)
$(objtree) - the top of the kernel object tree
$(srctree) - the top of the kernel source tree
Consequently, $(srctree)/$(src) in upstream Makefiles need to be replaced
with $(src).

scripts/gdb: fix detection of current CPU in KGDB
Directly read the current CPU number from the kgdb_active variable. Before, the active CPU was obtained through the current task, which required searching the task list for the pid of GDB's selected thread. Obtaining the pid was buggy: GDB may use selected_thread().ptid[1] (LWPID) instead of .ptid[2] (TID) to store the threads pid; see https://sourceware.org/gdb/current/onlinedocs/gdb.html/Threads-In-Python.html As a result, the detection could return the wrong CPU number, leading to incorrect results for $lx_per_cpu and $lx_current. As a side effect, the patch significantly speeds up $lx_per_cpu and $lx_current in KGDB by avoiding the task-list iteration.

through GdbValue's address attribute.

scripts/gdb: fix failing KGDB detection during probe
Patch series "scripts/gdb: Fixes for $lx_current and $lx_per_cpu". This series fixes several bugs in the GDB scripts related to the $lx_current and $lx_per_cpu functions. The changes were tested with GDB 10, 11, 12, 13, and 14. Patch 1 fixes false-negative results when probing for KGDB Patch 2 fixes the $lx_per_cpu function, which is currently non-functional in QEMU-GDB and KGDB. Patch 3 fixes an additional bug in $lx_per_cpu that occurs with KGDB. Patch 4 fixes the incorrect detection of the current CPU number in KGDB, which silently breaks $lx_per_cpu and $lx_current. This patch (of 4): The KGDB probe function sometimes failed to detect KGDB for SMP machines as it assumed that task 2 (kthreadd) is running on CPU 0, which is not necessarily the case. Now, the detection is agnostic to kthreadd's CPU.

genirq: Convert kstat_irqs to a struct
The irq_desc::kstat_irqs member is a per-CPU variable of type int, which is only capable of counting. A snapshot mechanism for interrupt statistics will be added soon, which requires an additional variable to store the snapshot. To facilitate expansion, convert kstat_irqs here to a struct containing only the count.

S390:
* Changes to FPU handling came in via the main s390 pull request
* Only deliver to the guest the SCLP events that userspace has
requested.
* More virtual vs physical address fixes (only a cleanup since
virtual and physical address spaces are currently the same).
* Fix selftests undefined behavior.
x86:
* Fix a restriction that the guest can't program a PMU event whose
encoding matches an architectural event that isn't included in the
guest CPUID. The enumeration of an architectural event only says
that if a CPU supports an architectural event, then the event can be
programmed *using the architectural encoding*. The enumeration does
NOT say anything about the encoding when the CPU doesn't report support
the event *in general*. It might support it, and it might support it
using the same encoding that made it into the architectural PMU spec.
* Fix a variety of bugs in KVM's emulation of RDPMC (more details on
individual commits) and add a selftest to verify KVM correctly emulates
RDMPC, counter availability, and a variety of other PMC-related
behaviors that depend on guest CPUID and therefore are easier to
validate with selftests than with custom guests (aka kvm-unit-tests).
* Zero out PMU state on AMD if the virtual PMU is disabled, it does not
cause any bug but it wastes time in various cases where KVM would check
if a PMC event needs to be synthesized.
* Optimize triggering of emulated events, with a nice ~10% performance
improvement in VM-Exit microbenchmarks when a vPMU is exposed to the
guest.
* Tighten the check for "PMI in guest" to reduce false positives if an NMI
arrives in the host while KVM is handling an IRQ VM-Exit.
* Fix a bug where KVM would report stale/bogus exit qualification information
when exiting to userspace with an internal error exit code.
* Add a VMX flag in /proc/cpuinfo to report 5-level EPT support.
* Rework TDP MMU root unload, free, and alloc to run with mmu_lock held for
read, e.g. to avoid serializing vCPUs when userspace deletes a memslot.
* Tear down TDP MMU page tables at 4KiB granularity (used to be 1GiB). KVM
doesn't support yielding in the middle of processing a zap, and 1GiB
granularity resulted in multi-millisecond lags that are quite impolite
for CONFIG_PREEMPT kernels.
* Allocate write-tracking metadata on-demand to avoid the memory overhead when
a kernel is built with i915 virtualization support but the workloads use
neither shadow paging nor i915 virtualization.
* Explicitly initialize a variety of on-stack variables in the emulator that
triggered KMSAN false positives.
* Fix the debugregs ABI for 32-bit KVM.
* Rework the "force immediate exit" code so that vendor code ultimately decides
how and when to force the exit, which allowed some optimization for both
Intel and AMD.
* Fix a long-standing bug where kvm_has_noapic_vcpu could be left elevated if
vCPU creation ultimately failed, causing extra unnecessary work.
* Cleanup the logic for checking if the currently loaded vCPU is in-kernel.
* Harden against underflowing the active mmu_notifier invalidation
count, so that "bad" invalidations (usually due to bugs elsehwere in the
kernel) are detected earlier and are less likely to hang the kernel.
x86 Xen emulation:
* Overlay pages can now be cached based on host virtual address,
instead of guest physical addresses. This removes the need to
reconfigure and invalidate the cache if the guest changes the
gpa but the underlying host virtual address remains the same.
* When possible, use a single host TSC value when computing the deadline for
Xen timers in order to improve the accuracy of the timer emulation.
* Inject pending upcall events when the vCPU software-enables its APIC to fix
a bug where an upcall can be lost (and to follow Xen's behavior).
* Fall back to the slow path instead of warning if "fast" IRQ delivery of Xen
events fails, e.g. if the guest has aliased xAPIC IDs.
RISC-V:
* Support exception and interrupt handling in selftests
* New self test for RISC-V architectural timer (Sstc extension)
* New extension support (Ztso, Zacas)
* Support userspace emulation of random number seed CSRs.
ARM:
* Infrastructure for building KVM's trap configuration based on the
architectural features (or lack thereof) advertised in the VM's ID
registers
* Support for mapping vfio-pci BARs as Normal-NC (vaguely similar to
x86's WC) at stage-2, improving the performance of interacting with
assigned devices that can tolerate it
* Conversion of KVM's representation of LPIs to an xarray, utilized to
address serialization some of the serialization on the LPI injection
path
* Support for _architectural_ VHE-only systems, advertised through the
absence of FEAT_E2H0 in the CPU's ID register
* Miscellaneous cleanups, fixes, and spelling corrections to KVM and
selftests
LoongArch:
* Set reserved bits as zero in CPUCFG.
* Start SW timer only when vcpu is blocking.
* Do not restart SW timer when it is expired.
* Remove unnecessary CSR register saving during enter guest.
* Misc cleanups and fixes as usual.
Generic:
* cleanup Kconfig by removing CONFIG_HAVE_KVM, which was basically always
true on all architectures except MIPS (where Kconfig determines the
available depending on CPU capabilities). It is replaced either by
an architecture-dependent symbol for MIPS, and IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_KVM)
everywhere else.
* Factor common "select" statements in common code instead of requiring
each architecture to specify it
* Remove thoroughly obsolete APIs from the uapi headers.
* Move architecture-dependent stuff to uapi/asm/kvm.h
* Always flush the async page fault workqueue when a work item is being
removed, especially during vCPU destruction, to ensure that there are no
workers running in KVM code when all references to KVM-the-module are gone,
i.e. to prevent a very unlikely use-after-free if kvm.ko is unloaded.
* Grab a reference to the VM's mm_struct in the async #PF worker itself instead
of gifting the worker a reference, so that there's no need to remember
to *conditionally* clean up after the worker.
Selftests:
* Reduce boilerplate especially when utilize selftest TAP infrastructure.
* Add basic smoke tests for SEV and SEV-ES, along with a pile of library
support for handling private/encrypted/protected memory.
* Fix benign bugs where tests neglect to close() guest_memfd files.

- Sumanth Korikkar has taught s390 to allocate hotplug-time page frames
from hotplugged memory rather than only from main memory. Series
"implement "memmap on memory" feature on s390".
- More folio conversions from Matthew Wilcox in the series
"Convert memcontrol charge moving to use folios"
"mm: convert mm counter to take a folio"
- Chengming Zhou has optimized zswap's rbtree locking, providing
significant reductions in system time and modest but measurable
reductions in overall runtimes. The series is "mm/zswap: optimize the
scalability of zswap rb-tree".
- Chengming Zhou has also provided the series "mm/zswap: optimize zswap
lru list" which provides measurable runtime benefits in some
swap-intensive situations.
- And Chengming Zhou further optimizes zswap in the series "mm/zswap:
optimize for dynamic zswap_pools". Measured improvements are modest.
- zswap cleanups and simplifications from Yosry Ahmed in the series "mm:
zswap: simplify zswap_swapoff()".
- In the series "Add DAX ABI for memmap_on_memory", Vishal Verma has
contributed several DAX cleanups as well as adding a sysfs tunable to
control the memmap_on_memory setting when the dax device is hotplugged
as system memory.
- Johannes Weiner has added the large series "mm: zswap: cleanups",
which does that.
- More DAMON work from SeongJae Park in the series
"mm/damon: make DAMON debugfs interface deprecation unignorable"
"selftests/damon: add more tests for core functionalities and corner cases"
"Docs/mm/damon: misc readability improvements"
"mm/damon: let DAMOS feeds and tame/auto-tune itself"
- In the series "mm/mempolicy: weighted interleave mempolicy and sysfs
extension" Rakie Kim has developed a new mempolicy interleaving policy
wherein we allocate memory across nodes in a weighted fashion rather
than uniformly. This is beneficial in heterogeneous memory environments
appearing with CXL.
- Christophe Leroy has contributed some cleanup and consolidation work
against the ARM pagetable dumping code in the series "mm: ptdump:
Refactor CONFIG_DEBUG_WX and check_wx_pages debugfs attribute".
- Luis Chamberlain has added some additional xarray selftesting in the
series "test_xarray: advanced API multi-index tests".
- Muhammad Usama Anjum has reworked the selftest code to make its
human-readable output conform to the TAP ("Test Anything Protocol")
format. Amongst other things, this opens up the use of third-party
tools to parse and process out selftesting results.
- Ryan Roberts has added fork()-time PTE batching of THP ptes in the
series "mm/memory: optimize fork() with PTE-mapped THP". Mainly
targeted at arm64, this significantly speeds up fork() when the process
has a large number of pte-mapped folios.
- David Hildenbrand also gets in on the THP pte batching game in his
series "mm/memory: optimize unmap/zap with PTE-mapped THP". It
implements batching during munmap() and other pte teardown situations.
The microbenchmark improvements are nice.
- And in the series "Transparent Contiguous PTEs for User Mappings" Ryan
Roberts further utilizes arm's pte's contiguous bit ("contpte
mappings"). Kernel build times on arm64 improved nicely. Ryan's series
"Address some contpte nits" provides some followup work.
- In the series "mm/hugetlb: Restore the reservation" Breno Leitao has
fixed an obscure hugetlb race which was causing unnecessary page faults.
He has also added a reproducer under the selftest code.
- In the series "selftests/mm: Output cleanups for the compaction test",
Mark Brown did what the title claims.
- Kinsey Ho has added the series "mm/mglru: code cleanup and refactoring".
- Even more zswap material from Nhat Pham. The series "fix and extend
zswap kselftests" does as claimed.
- In the series "Introduce cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() to fix DAX
regression" Mathieu Desnoyers has cleaned up and fixed rather a mess in
our handling of DAX on archiecctures which have virtually aliasing data
caches. The arm architecture is the main beneficiary.
- Lokesh Gidra's series "per-vma locks in userfaultfd" provides dramatic
improvements in worst-case mmap_lock hold times during certain
userfaultfd operations.
- Some page_owner enhancements and maintenance work from Oscar Salvador
in his series
"page_owner: print stacks and their outstanding allocations"
"page_owner: Fixup and cleanup"
- Uladzislau Rezki has contributed some vmalloc scalability improvements
in his series "Mitigate a vmap lock contention". It realizes a 12x
improvement for a certain microbenchmark.
- Some kexec/crash cleanup work from Baoquan He in the series "Split
crash out from kexec and clean up related config items".
- Some zsmalloc maintenance work from Chengming Zhou in the series
"mm/zsmalloc: fix and optimize objects/page migration"
"mm/zsmalloc: some cleanup for get/set_zspage_mapping()"
- Zi Yan has taught the MM to perform compaction on folios larger than
order=0. This a step along the path to implementaton of the merging of
large anonymous folios. The series is named "Enable >0 order folio

Merge tag 'mm-stable-2024-03-13-20-04' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm
Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- Sumanth Korikkar has taught s390 to allocate hotplug-time page frames
from hotplugged memory rather than only from main memory. Series
"implement "memmap on memory" feature on s390".
- More folio conversions from Matthew Wilcox in the series
"Convert memcontrol charge moving to use folios"
"mm: convert mm counter to take a folio"
- Chengming Zhou has optimized zswap's rbtree locking, providing
significant reductions in system time and modest but measurable
reductions in overall runtimes. The series is "mm/zswap: optimize the
scalability of zswap rb-tree".
- Chengming Zhou has also provided the series "mm/zswap: optimize zswap
lru list" which provides measurable runtime benefits in some
swap-intensive situations.
- And Chengming Zhou further optimizes zswap in the series "mm/zswap:
optimize for dynamic zswap_pools". Measured improvements are modest.
- zswap cleanups and simplifications from Yosry Ahmed in the series
"mm: zswap: simplify zswap_swapoff()".
- In the series "Add DAX ABI for memmap_on_memory", Vishal Verma has
contributed several DAX cleanups as well as adding a sysfs tunable to
control the memmap_on_memory setting when the dax device is
hotplugged as system memory.
- Johannes Weiner has added the large series "mm: zswap: cleanups",
which does that.
- More DAMON work from SeongJae Park in the series
"mm/damon: make DAMON debugfs interface deprecation unignorable"
"selftests/damon: add more tests for core functionalities and corner cases"
"Docs/mm/damon: misc readability improvements"
"mm/damon: let DAMOS feeds and tame/auto-tune itself"
- In the series "mm/mempolicy: weighted interleave mempolicy and sysfs
extension" Rakie Kim has developed a new mempolicy interleaving
policy wherein we allocate memory across nodes in a weighted fashion
rather than uniformly. This is beneficial in heterogeneous memory
environments appearing with CXL.
- Christophe Leroy has contributed some cleanup and consolidation work
against the ARM pagetable dumping code in the series "mm: ptdump:
Refactor CONFIG_DEBUG_WX and check_wx_pages debugfs attribute".
- Luis Chamberlain has added some additional xarray selftesting in the
series "test_xarray: advanced API multi-index tests".
- Muhammad Usama Anjum has reworked the selftest code to make its
human-readable output conform to the TAP ("Test Anything Protocol")
format. Amongst other things, this opens up the use of third-party
tools to parse and process out selftesting results.
- Ryan Roberts has added fork()-time PTE batching of THP ptes in the
series "mm/memory: optimize fork() with PTE-mapped THP". Mainly
targeted at arm64, this significantly speeds up fork() when the
process has a large number of pte-mapped folios.
- David Hildenbrand also gets in on the THP pte batching game in his
series "mm/memory: optimize unmap/zap with PTE-mapped THP". It
implements batching during munmap() and other pte teardown
situations. The microbenchmark improvements are nice.
- And in the series "Transparent Contiguous PTEs for User Mappings"
Ryan Roberts further utilizes arm's pte's contiguous bit ("contpte
mappings"). Kernel build times on arm64 improved nicely. Ryan's
series "Address some contpte nits" provides some followup work.
- In the series "mm/hugetlb: Restore the reservation" Breno Leitao has
fixed an obscure hugetlb race which was causing unnecessary page
faults. He has also added a reproducer under the selftest code.
- In the series "selftests/mm: Output cleanups for the compaction
test", Mark Brown did what the title claims.
- Kinsey Ho has added the series "mm/mglru: code cleanup and
refactoring".
- Even more zswap material from Nhat Pham. The series "fix and extend
zswap kselftests" does as claimed.
- In the series "Introduce cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() to fix DAX
regression" Mathieu Desnoyers has cleaned up and fixed rather a mess
in our handling of DAX on archiecctures which have virtually aliasing
data caches. The arm architecture is the main beneficiary.
- Lokesh Gidra's series "per-vma locks in userfaultfd" provides
dramatic improvements in worst-case mmap_lock hold times during
certain userfaultfd operations.
- Some page_owner enhancements and maintenance work from Oscar Salvador
in his series
"page_owner: print stacks and their outstanding allocations"
"page_owner: Fixup and cleanup"
- Uladzislau Rezki has contributed some vmalloc scalability
improvements in his series "Mitigate a vmap lock contention". It
realizes a 12x improvement for a certain microbenchmark.
- Some kexec/crash cleanup work from Baoquan He in the series "Split
crash out from kexec and clean up related config items".
- Some zsmalloc maintenance work from Chengming Zhou in the series
"mm/zsmalloc: fix and optimize objects/page migration"
"mm/zsmalloc: some cleanup for get/set_zspage_mapping()"
- Zi Yan has taught the MM to perform compaction on folios larger than
order=0. This a step along the path to implementaton of the merging
of large anonymous folios. The series is named "Enable >0 order folio
memory compaction".
- Christoph Hellwig has done quite a lot of cleanup work in the
pagecache writeback code in his series "convert write_cache_pages()
to an iterator".
- Some modest hugetlb cleanups and speedups in Vishal Moola's series
"Handle hugetlb faults under the VMA lock".
- Zi Yan has changed the page splitting code so we can split huge pages
into sizes other than order-0 to better utilize large folios. The

asm-generic updates for 6.9
Just two small updates this time:
- A series I did to unify the definition of PAGE_SIZE through Kconfig,
intended to help with a vdso rework that needs the constant but
cannot include the normal kernel headers when building the compat
VDSO on arm64 and potentially others.
- a patch from Yan Zhao to remove the pfn_to_virt() definitions from
a couple of architectures after finding they were both incorrect
and entirely unused.

arch: simplify architecture specific page size configuration
arc, arm64, parisc and powerpc all have their own Kconfig symbols in place of the common CONFIG_PAGE_SIZE_4KB symbols. Change these so the common symbols are the ones that are actually used, while leaving the arhcitecture specific ones as the user visible place for configuring it, to avoid breaking user configs.
