Kthreads affinity follow either of 4 existing different patterns:
1) Per-CPU kthreads must stay affine to a single CPU and never execute relevant code on any other CPU. This is currently handled by smpboot code which takes care of CPU-hotplug operations. Affinity here is a correctness constraint. 2) Some kthreads _have_ to be affine to a specific set of CPUs and can't run anywhere else. The affinity is set through kthread_bind_mask() and the subsystem takes care by itself to handle CPU-hotplug operations. Affinity here is assumed to be a correctness constraint. 3) Per-node kthreads _prefer_ to be affine to a specific NUMA node. This is not a correctness constraint but merely a preference in terms of memory locality. kswapd and kcompactd both fall into this category. The affinity is set manually like for any other task and CPU-hotplug is supposed to be handled by the relevant subsystem so that the task is properly reaffined whenever a given CPU from the node comes up. Also care should be taken so that the node affinity doesn't cross isolated (nohz_full) cpumask boundaries. 4) Similar to the previous point except kthreads have a _preferred_ affinity different than a node. Both RCU boost kthreads and RCU exp kworkers fall into this category as they refer to "RCU nodes" from a distinctly distributed tree. Currently the preferred affinity patterns (3 and 4) have at least 4 identified users, with more or less success when it comes to handle CPU-hotplug operations and CPU isolation. Each of which do it in its own ad-hoc way. This is an infrastructure proposal to handle this with the following API changes: _ kthread_create_on_node() automatically affines the created kthread to its target node unless it has been set as per-cpu or bound with kthread_bind[_mask]() before the first wake-up. - kthread_affine_preferred() is a new function that can be called right after kthread_create_on_node() to specify a preferred affinity different than the specified node. When the preferred affinity can't be applied because the possible targets are offline or isolated (nohz_full), the kthread is affine to the housekeeping CPUs (which means to all online CPUs most of the time or only the non-nohz_full CPUs when nohz_full= is set). kswapd, kcompactd, RCU boost kthreads and RCU exp kworkers have been converted, along with a few old drivers. Summary of the changes: * Consolidate a bunch of ad-hoc implementations of kthread_run_on_cpu() * Introduce task_cpu_fallback_mask() that defines the default last resort affinity of a task to become nohz_full aware * Add some correctness check to ensure kthread_bind() is always called before the first kthread wake up. * Default affine kthread to its preferred node. * Convert kswapd / kcompactd and remove their halfway working ad-hoc affinity implementation * Implement kthreads preferred affinity * Unify kthread worker and kthread API's style * Convert RCU kthreads to the new API and remove the ad-hoc affinity implementation. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAABCAAdFiEEd76+gtGM8MbftQlOhSRUR1COjHcFAmeNf8gACgkQhSRUR1CO jHedQQ/+IxTjjqQiItzrq41TES2S0desHDq8lNJFb7rsR/DtKFyLx3s67cOYV+cM Yx54QHg2m/Fz4nXMQ7Po5ygOtJGCKBc5C5QQy7y0lVKeTQK+daDfEtBSa3oG7j3C u+E3tTY6qxkbCzymUyaKkHN4/ay2vLvjFS50luV7KMyI3x47Aji+t7VdCX4LCPP2 eAwOALWD0+7qLJ/VF6gsmQLKA4Qx7PQAzBa3KSBmUN9UcN8Gk1bQHCTIQKDHP9LQ v8BXrNZtYX1o2+snNYpX2z6/ECjxkdwriOgqqZY5306hd9RAQ1u46Dx3byrIqjGn ULG/XQ2istPyhTqb/h+RbrobdOcwEUIeqk8hRRbBXE8bPpqUz9EMuaCMxWDbQjgH NTuKG4ifKJ/IqstkkuDkdOiByE/ysMmwqrTXgSnu2ITNL9yY3BEgFbvA95hgo42s f7QCxEfZb1MHcNEMENSMwM3xw5lLMGMpxVZcMQ3gLwyotMBRrhFZm1qZJG7TITYW IDIeCbH4JOMdQwLs3CcWTXio0N5/85NhRNFV+IDn96OrgxObgnMtV8QwNgjXBAJ5 wGeJWt8s34W1Zo3qS9gEuVzEhW4XaxISQQMkHe8faKkK6iHmIB/VjSQikDwwUNQ/ AspYj82RyWBCDZsqhiYh71kpxjvS6Xp0bj39Ce1sNsOnuksxKkQ= =g8In -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'kthread-for-6.14-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/frederic/linux-dynticks Pull kthread updates from Frederic Weisbecker: "Kthreads affinity follow either of 4 existing different patterns: 1) Per-CPU kthreads must stay affine to a single CPU and never execute relevant code on any other CPU.

Merge patch series "riscv: Add support for xtheadvector"
Charlie Jenkins <charlie@rivosinc.com> says:
xtheadvector is a custom extension that is based upon riscv vector
version 0.7.1 [1]. All of the vector routines have been modified to
support this alternative vector version based upon whether xtheadvector
was determined to be supported at boot.
vlenb is not supported on the existing xtheadvector hardware, so a
devicetree property thead,vlenb is added to provide the vlenb to Linux.
There is a new hwprobe key RISCV_HWPROBE_KEY_VENDOR_EXT_THEAD_0 that is
used to request which thead vendor extensions are supported on the
current platform. This allows future vendors to allocate hwprobe keys
for their vendor.
Support for xtheadvector is also added to the vector kselftests.

Documentation: Fix x86_64 UEFI outdated references to elilo
Problem: The x86_64 UEFI doc references Elilo which is an unmaintained/orphaned bootloader project. Also, on x86_64 a bootloader is technically not actually required since there is support for the Linux EFI stub. Solution: Remove the references to Elilo from the doc and refer to the EFI stub doc page, update steps accordingly, and add more details about creation of the EFI partition to improve clarity.

Documentation: arm64: Remove stale and redundant virtual memory diagrams
The arm64 'memory.rst' file tries to document the virtual memory map and the translation procedure for a couple of kernel configurations. Unfortunately, the virtual memory map changes relatively frequently and we support considerably more configurations than we did when the docs were introduced (e.g. we now have support for 16KiB pages and 52-bit addressing). Furthermore, the Arm ARM is the definitive resource for the translation procedure and so there's little point in duplicating part of that information in the kernel documentation. Rather than continue trying (and failing) to maintain these diagrams, let's rip them out. The kernel page-table can be dumped using CONFIG_PTDUMP_DEBUGFS if necesssary.

arm64: Filter out SVE hwcaps when FEAT_SVE isn't implemented
The hwcaps code that exposes SVE features to userspace only
considers ID_AA64ZFR0_EL1, while this is only valid when
ID_AA64PFR0_EL1.SVE advertises that SVE is actually supported.
The expectations are that when ID_AA64PFR0_EL1.SVE is 0, the
ID_AA64ZFR0_EL1 register is also 0. So far, so good.
Things become a bit more interesting if the HW implements SME.
In this case, a few ID_AA64ZFR0_EL1 fields indicate *SME*
features. And these fields overlap with their SVE interpretations.
But the architecture says that the SME and SVE feature sets must
match, so we're still hunky-dory.
This goes wrong if the HW implements SME, but not SVE. In this
case, we end-up advertising some SVE features to userspace, even
if the HW has none. That's because we never consider whether SVE
is actually implemented. Oh well.
Fix it by restricting all SVE capabilities to ID_AA64PFR0_EL1.SVE
being non-zero. The HWCAPS documentation is amended to reflect the
actually checks performed by the kernel.

iommu/arm-smmu: Re-enable context caching in smmu reset operation
Default MMU-500 reset operation disables context caching in prefetch buffer. It is however expected for context banks using the ACTLR register to retain their prefetch value during reset and runtime suspend. Add config 'ARM_SMMU_MMU_500_CPRE_ERRATA' to gate this errata workaround in default MMU-500 reset operation which defaults to 'Y' and provide option to disable workaround for context caching in prefetch buffer as and when needed.

x86/topology: Introduce topology_logical_core_id()
On x86, topology_core_id() returns a unique core ID within the PKG domain. Looking at match_smt() suggests that a core ID just needs to be unique within a LLC domain. For use cases such as the core RAPL PMU, there exists a need for a unique core ID across the entire system with multiple PKG domains. Introduce topology_logical_core_id() to derive a unique core ID across the system.

x86/Documentation: Update algo in init_size description of boot protocol
The init_size description of boot protocol has an example of the runtime start address for the compressed bzImage. For non-relocatable kernel it relies on the pref_address value (if not 0), but for relocatable case only pays respect to the load_addres and kernel_alignment, and it is inaccurate for the latter. Boot loader must consider the pref_address as the Linux kernel relocates to it before being decompressed as nicely described in this commit message a year ago: |

The biggest change here is eliminating the awful idea that KVM had, of
essentially guessing which pfns are refcounted pages. The reason to do so was that KVM needs to map both non-refcounted pages (for example BARs of VFIO devices) and VM_PFNMAP/VM_MIXMEDMAP VMAs that contain refcounted pages. However, the result was security issues in the past, and more recently the inability to map VM_IO and VM_PFNMAP memory that _is_ backed by struct page but is not refcounted. In particular this broke virtio-gpu blob resources (which directly map host graphics buffers into the guest as "vram" for the virtio-gpu device) with the amdgpu driver, because amdgpu allocates non-compound higher order pages and the tail pages could not be mapped into KVM. This requires adjusting all uses of struct page in the per-architecture code, to always work on the pfn whenever possible. The large series that did this, from David Stevens and Sean Christopherson, also cleaned up substantially the set of functions that provided arch code with the pfn for a host virtual addresses. The previous maze of twisty little passages, all different, is replaced by five functions (__gfn_to_page, __kvm_faultin_pfn, the non-__ versions of these two, and kvm_prefetch_pages) saving almost 200 lines of code. ARM: * Support for stage-1 permission indirection (FEAT_S1PIE) and permission overlays (FEAT_S1POE), including nested virt + the emulated page table walker * Introduce PSCI SYSTEM_OFF2 support to KVM + client driver. This call was introduced in PSCIv1.3 as a mechanism to request hibernation, similar to the S4 state in ACPI * Explicitly trap + hide FEAT_MPAM (QoS controls) from KVM guests. As part of it, introduce trivial initialization of the host's MPAM context so KVM can use the corresponding traps * PMU support under nested virtualization, honoring the guest hypervisor's trap configuration and event filtering when running a nested guest * Fixes to vgic ITS serialization where stale device/interrupt table entries are not zeroed when the mapping is invalidated by the VM * Avoid emulated MMIO completion if userspace has requested synchronous external abort injection * Various fixes and cleanups affecting pKVM, vCPU initialization, and selftests LoongArch: * Add iocsr and mmio bus simulation in kernel. * Add in-kernel interrupt controller emulation. * Add support for virtualization extensions to the eiointc irqchip. PPC: * Drop lingering and utterly obsolete references to PPC970 KVM, which was removed 10 years ago. * Fix incorrect documentation references to non-existing ioctls RISC-V: * Accelerate KVM RISC-V when running as a guest * Perf support to collect KVM guest statistics from host side s390: * New selftests: more ucontrol selftests and CPU model sanity checks * Support for the gen17 CPU model * List registers supported by KVM_GET/SET_ONE_REG in the documentation x86: * Cleanup KVM's handling of Accessed and Dirty bits to dedup code, improve documentation, harden against unexpected changes. Even if the hardware A/D tracking is disabled, it is possible to use the hardware-defined A/D bits to track if a PFN is Accessed and/or Dirty, and that removes a lot of special cases. * Elide TLB flushes when aging secondary PTEs, as has been done in x86's primary MMU for over 10 years. * Recover huge pages in-place in the TDP MMU when dirty page logging is toggled off, instead of zapping them and waiting until the page is re-accessed to create a huge mapping. This reduces vCPU jitter. * Batch TLB flushes when dirty page logging is toggled off. This reduces the time it takes to disable dirty logging by ~3x. * Remove the shrinker that was (poorly) attempting to reclaim shadow page tables in low-memory situations. * Clean up and optimize KVM's handling of writes to MSR_IA32_APICBASE. * Advertise CPUIDs for new instructions in Clearwater Forest * Quirk KVM's misguided behavior of initialized certain feature MSRs to their maximum supported feature set, which can result in KVM creating invalid vCPU state. E.g. initializing PERF_CAPABILITIES to a non-zero value results in the vCPU having invalid state if userspace hides PDCM from the guest, which in turn can lead to save/restore failures. * Fix KVM's handling of non-canonical checks for vCPUs that support LA57 to better follow the "architecture", in quotes because the actual behavior is poorly documented. E.g. most MSR writes and descriptor table loads ignore CR4.LA57 and operate purely on whether the CPU supports LA57. * Bypass the register cache when querying CPL from kvm_sched_out(), as filling the cache from IRQ context is generally unsafe; harden the cache accessors to try to prevent similar issues from occuring in the future. The issue that triggered this change was already fixed in 6.12, but was still kinda latent. * Advertise AMD_IBPB_RET to userspace, and fix a related bug where KVM over-advertises SPEC_CTRL when trying to support cross-vendor VMs. * Minor cleanups * Switch hugepage recovery thread to use vhost_task. These kthreads can consume significant amounts of CPU time on behalf of a VM or in response to how the VM behaves (for example how it accesses its memory); therefore KVM tried to place the thread in the VM's cgroups and charge the CPU time consumed by that work to the VM's container. However the kthreads did not process SIGSTOP/SIGCONT, and therefore cgroups which had KVM instances inside could not complete freezing. Fix this by replacing the kthread with a PF_USER_WORKER thread, via the vhost_task abstraction. Another 100+ lines removed, with generally better behavior too like having these threads properly parented in the process tree. * Revert a workaround for an old CPU erratum (Nehalem/Westmere) that didn't really work; there was really nothing to work around anyway: the broken patch was meant to fix nested virtualization, but the PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL MSR is virtualized and therefore unaffected by the erratum. * Fix 6.12 regression where CONFIG_KVM will be built as a module even if asked to be builtin, as long as neither KVM_INTEL nor KVM_AMD is 'y'. x86 selftests: * x86 selftests can now use AVX. Documentation: * Use rST internal links * Reorganize the introduction to the API document Generic: * Protect vcpu->pid accesses outside of vcpu->mutex with a rwlock instead of RCU, so that running a vCPU on a different task doesn't encounter long due to having to wait for all CPUs become quiescent. In general both reads and writes are rare, but userspace that supports confidential computing is introducing the use of "helper" vCPUs that may jump from one host processor to another. Those will be very happy to trigger a synchronize_rcu(), and the effect on performance is quite the disaster. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQFIBAABCAAyFiEE8TM4V0tmI4mGbHaCv/vSX3jHroMFAmc9MRYUHHBib256aW5p QHJlZGhhdC5jb20ACgkQv/vSX3jHroP00QgArxqxBIGLCW5t7bw7vtNq63QYRyh4 dTiDguLiYQJ+AXmnRu11R6aPC7HgMAvlFCCmH+GEce4WEgt26hxCmncJr/aJOSwS letCS7TrME16PeZvh25A1nhPBUw6mTF1qqzgcdHMrqXG8LuHoGcKYGSRVbkf3kfI 1ZoMq1r8ChXbVVmCx9DQ3gw1TVr5Dpjs2voLh8rDSE9Xpw0tVVabHu3/NhQEz/F+ t8/nRaqH777icCHIf9PCk5HnarHxLAOvhM2M0Yj09PuBcE5fFQxpxltw/qiKQqqW ep4oquojGl87kZnhlDaac2UNtK90Ws+WxxvCwUmbvGN0ZJVaQwf4FvTwig== =lWpE -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini: "The biggest change here is eliminating the awful idea that KVM had of essentially guessing which pfns are refcounted pages.

Documentation: - Use rST internal links - Reorganize the introduction to the API document Generic: - Protect vcpu->pid accesses outside of vcpu->mutex with a rwlock instead of RCU, so that running a vCPU on a different task doesn't encounter long due to having to wait for all CPUs become quiescent. In general both reads and writes are rare, but userspace that supports confidential computing is introducing the use of "helper" vCPUs that may jump from one host processor to another.

irqchip/loongson-eiointc: Add virt extension support
Interrupts can be routed to maximal four virtual CPUs with real HW EIOINTC interrupt controller model, since interrupt routing is encoded with CPU bitmap and EIOINTC node combined method. Here add the EIOINTC virt extension support so that interrupts can be routed to 256 vCPUs in virtual machine mode. CPU bitmap is replaced with normal encoding and EIOINTC node type is removed, so there are 8 bits for cpu selection, at most 256 vCPUs are supported for interrupt routing.

arm64/ptrace: Clarify documentation of VL configuration via ptrace
When we configure SVE, SSVE or ZA via ptrace we allow the user to configure the vector length and specify any of the flags that are accepted when configuring via prctl(). This includes the S[VM]E_SET_VL_ONEXEC flag which defers the configuration of the VL until an exec(). We don't do anything to limit the provision of register data as part of configuring the _ONEXEC VL but as a function of the VL enumeration support we do this will be interpreted using the vector length currently configured for the process. This is all a bit surprising, and probably we should just not have allowed register data to be specified with _ONEXEC, but it's our ABI so let's add some explicit documentation in both the ABI documents and the source calling out what happens. The comments are also missing the fact that since SME does not have a mandatory 128 bit VL it is possible for VL enumeration to result in the configuration of a higher VL than was requested, cover that too.

Merge patch series "Zacas/Zabha support and qspinlocks"
Alexandre Ghiti <alexghiti@rivosinc.com> says: This implements [cmp]xchgXX() macros using Zacas and Zabha extensions and finally uses those newly introduced macros to add support for qspinlocks: note that this implementation of qspinlocks satisfies the forward progress guarantee. It also uses Ziccrse to provide the qspinlock implementation.
