The cpu_spec is a struct holding various information about the CPU the
kernel is executing on. It's populated early in boot and must not change
after that.
In particular the cpu_features and mmu_features hold the set of
discovered CPU/MMU features and are used to set static keys for each
feature, and do binary patching of assembly. So any change to the
cpu_features/mmu_features later in boot will not be reflected in
the state of the static keys or patched code.
There is already logic to check that cpu_features/mmu_features don't
change, see check_features() in feature-fixups.c.
But as another layer of protection the entire cpu_spec should be read
only after init, annotate it as such.

rtas_service_present() has no more users.
rtas_function_implemented() is now the appropriate API for determining

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace
Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Remove eventfs_file descriptor
This is the biggest change, and the second part of making eventfs
create its files dynamically.
In 6.6 the first part was added, and that maintained a one to one
mapping between eventfs meta descriptors and the directories and file
inodes and dentries that were dynamically created. The directories
were represented by a eventfs_inode and the files were represented by
a eventfs_file.
In v6.7 the eventfs_file is removed. As all events have the same
directory make up (sched_switch has an "enable", "id", "format", etc
files), the handing of what files are underneath each leaf eventfs
directory is moved back to the tracing subsystem via a callback.
When an event is added to the eventfs, it registers an array of
evenfs_entry's. These hold the names of the files and the callbacks
to call when the file is referenced. The callback gets the name so
that the same callback may be used by multiple files. The callback
then supplies the filesystem_operations structure needed to create
this file.
This has brought the memory footprint of creating multiple eventfs
instances down by 2 megs each!
- User events now has persistent events that are not associated to a
single processes. These are privileged events that hang around even
if no process is attached to them
- Clean up of seq_buf
There's talk about using seq_buf more to replace strscpy() and
friends. But this also requires some minor modifications of seq_buf
to be able to do this
- Expand instance ring buffers individually
Currently if boot up creates an instance, and a trace event is
enabled on that instance, the ring buffer for that instance and the
top level ring buffer are expanded (1.4 MB per CPU). This wastes
memory as this happens when nothing is using the top level instance
- Other minor clean ups and fixes

Pull sysctl updates from Luis Chamberlain:
"To help make the move of sysctls out of kernel/sysctl.c not incur a
size penalty sysctl has been changed to allow us to not require the
sentinel, the final empty element on the sysctl array. Joel Granados
has been doing all this work. On the v6.6 kernel we got the major
infrastructure changes required to support this. For v6.7-rc1 we have
all arch/ and drivers/ modified to remove the sentinel. Both arch and
driver changes have been on linux-next for a bit less than a month. It
is worth re-iterating the value:
- this helps reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run
time memory consumed by the kernel by about ~64 bytes per array
- the extra 64-byte penalty is no longer inncurred now when we move
sysctls out from kernel/sysctl.c to their own files
For v6.8-rc1 expect removal of all the sentinels and also then the
unneeded check for procname == NULL.
The last two patches are fixes recently merged by Krister Johansen
which allow us again to use softlockup_panic early on boot. This used
to work but the alias work broke it. This is useful for folks who want
to detect softlockups super early rather than wait and spend money on
cloud solutions with nothing but an eventual hung kernel. Although
this hadn't gone through linux-next it's also a stable fix, so we
might as well roll through the fixes now"

- Fix futex PI recursive rt_mutex waiter state bug
- Fix inter-process shared futexes on no-MMU systems
- Use folios instead of pages
Micro-optimizations of locking primitives:
- Improve arch_spin_value_unlocked() on asm-generic ticket spinlock
architectures, to improve lockref code generation
- Improve the x86-32 lockref_get_not_zero() main loop by adding
build-time CMPXCHG8B support detection for the relevant lockref
code, and by better interfacing the CMPXCHG8B assembly code with
the compiler
- Introduce arch_sync_try_cmpxchg() on x86 to improve
sync_try_cmpxchg() code generation. Convert some sync_cmpxchg()
users to sync_try_cmpxchg().
- Micro-optimize rcuref_put_slowpath()
Locking debuggability improvements:
- Improve CONFIG_DEBUG_RT_MUTEXES=y to have a fast-path as well
- Enforce atomicity of sched_submit_work(), which is de-facto atomic
but was un-enforced previously.
- Extend <linux/cleanup.h>'s no_free_ptr() with __must_check
semantics
- Fix ww_mutex self-tests
- Clean up const-propagation in <linux/seqlock.h> and simplify the
API-instantiation macros a bit
RT locking improvements:
- Provide the rt_mutex_*_schedule() primitives/helpers and use them
in the rtmutex code to avoid recursion vs. rtlock on the PI state.
- Add nested blocking lockdep asserts to rt_mutex_lock(),
rtlock_lock() and rwbase_read_lock()

A bisect pointed to the breakage beginning with commit 9fee28baa601 ("powerpc:
implement the new page table range API").
Analysis of the oops pointed to a struct page with a corrupted
compound_head being loaded via page_folio() -> _compound_head() in
hash_page_do_lazy_icache().
The access by the mpic code is to an MMIO address, so the expectation
is that the struct page for that address would be initialised by
init_unavailable_range(), as pointed out by Aneesh.
Instrumentation showed that was not the case, which eventually lead to
the realisation that pfn_valid() was returning false for that address,
causing the struct page to not be initialised.
Because the system is using FLATMEM, the version of pfn_valid() in
memory_model.h is used:
static inline int pfn_valid(unsigned long pfn)
{
...
return pfn >= pfn_offset && (pfn - pfn_offset) < max_mapnr;
}
Which relies on max_mapnr being initialised. Early in boot max_mapnr is
zero meaning no PFNs are valid.
max_mapnr is initialised in mem_init() called via:
start_kernel()
mm_core_init() # init/main.c:928
mem_init()
But that is too late for the usage in init_unavailable_range() called via:
start_kernel()
setup_arch() # init/main.c:893
paging_init()
free_area_init()
init_unavailable_range()
Although max_mapnr is currently set in mem_init(), the value is actually
already available much earlier, as soon as mem_topology_setup() has
completed, which is also before paging_init() is called. So move the
initialisation there, which causes paging_init() to correctly initialise
the struct page and fixes the bug.
This bug seems to have been lurking for years, but went unnoticed
because the pre-folio code was inspecting the uninitialised page->flags
but not dereferencing it.
Thanks to Erhard and Aneesh for help debugging.

A thread started via eg. user_mode_thread() runs in the kernel to begin
with and then may later return to userspace. While it's running in the
kernel it has a pt_regs at the base of its kernel stack, but that
pt_regs is all zeroes.
If the thread oopses in that state, it leads to an ugly stack trace with
a big block of zero GPRs, as reported by Joel:

On 603 MMU, TLB missed are handled by SW and there are separated
DTLB and ITLB. It is therefore possible to implement execute-only
protection by not loading DTLB when read access is not permitted.
To do that, _PAGE_READ flag is needed but there is no bit available
for it in PTE. On the other hand the only real use of _PAGE_USER is
to implement PAGE_NONE by clearing _PAGE_USER.
As _PAGE_NONE can also be implemented by clearing _PAGE_READ, remove
_PAGE_USER and add _PAGE_READ. Then use the virtual address to know
whether user rights or kernel rights are to be used.
With that change, 603 MMU now honors execute-only protection.
For hash (604) MMU it is more tricky because hash table is common to
load/store and execute. Nevertheless it is still possible to check
whether _PAGE_READ is set before loading hash table for a load/store
access. At least it can't be read unless it is executed first.

For the time being _PAGE_WRITE is equivalent to _PAGE_RW but that

_PAGE_USER is used to select the zone. Today zone 0 is kernel
and zone 1 is user.
To implement _PAGE_NONE, _PAGE_USER is cleared, leading to no access
for user but kernel still has access to the page so it's possible for
a user application to write in that page by using a kernel function
as trampoline.
What is really wanted is to have user rights on pages below TASK_SIZE
and no user rights on pages above TASK_SIZE. Use zones for that.
There are 16 zones so lets use the 4 upper address bits to set the
zone and declare zone rights based on TASK_SIZE.
Then drop _PAGE_USER and reuse it as _PAGE_READ that will be checked
in Data TLB miss handler. That will properly handle PAGE_NONE for
both kernel and user.
In addition, it partially implements execute-only right. The
implementation won't be complete because once a TLB has been loaded
via the Instruction TLB miss handler, it will be possible to read
the page. But at least it can't be read unless it is executed first.

44x MMU has 6 page protection bits:
- R, W, X for supervisor
- R, W, X for user
It means that it can support X without R.
To do that, _PAGE_READ flag is needed but there is no bit available
for it in PTE. On the other hand the only real use of _PAGE_USER is
to implement PAGE_NONE by clearing _PAGE_USER.
As _PAGE_NONE can also be implemented by clearing _PAGE_READ,
remove _PAGE_USER and add _PAGE_READ. In order to insert bits in
one go during TLB miss, move _PAGE_ACCESSED and put _PAGE_READ
just after _PAGE_DIRTY so that _PAGE_DIRTY is copied into SW and
_PAGE_READ into SR at once.
With that change, 44x now also honors execute-only protection.

I noticed that commit 0db5b61e0dc07 ("fbdev/vga16fb: Create
EGA/VGA devices in sysfb code") broke vga16fb on non-x86 platforms,
because the sysfb code never creates a vga-framebuffer device when
screen_info.orig_video_isVGA is set to '1' instead of VIDEO_TYPE_VGAC.
However, it turns out that the only architecture that has allowed
building vga16fb in the past 20 years is powerpc, and this only worked
on two 32-bit platforms and never on 64-bit powerpc. The last machine
that actually used this was removed in linux-3.10, so this is all dead
code and can be removed.
The big-endian support in vga16fb.c could also be removed, but I'd just
leave this in place.

The problem is in ret_from_syscall where the check for
icache_44x_need_flush is done. When the flush is needed the code jumps
out-of-line to do the flush, and then intends to jump back to continue
the syscall return.
However the branch back to label 1b doesn't return to the correct
location, instead branching back just prior to the return to userspace,
causing bogus register values to be used by the rfi.
The breakage was introduced by commit 6f76a01173cc
("powerpc/syscall: implement system call entry/exit logic in C for PPC32") which
inadvertently removed the "1" label and reused it elsewhere.
Fix it by adding named local labels in the correct locations. Note that
the return label needs to be outside the ifdef so that CONFIG_PPC_47x=n
compiles.

This commit comes at the tail end of a greater effort to remove the
empty elements at the end of the ctl_table arrays (sentinels) which
will reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run time
memory bloat by ~64 bytes per sentinel (further information Link :
https://lore.kernel.org/all/ZO5Yx5JFogGi%2FcBo@bombadil.infradead.org/)
Remove sentinel from powersave_nap_ctl_table and nmi_wd_lpm_factor_ctl_table.
This removal is safe because register_sysctl implicitly uses ARRAY_SIZE()
in addition to checking for the sentinel.

commit c35559f94ebc ("x86/shstk: Introduce map_shadow_stack syscall")
recently added support for map_shadow_stack() but it is limited to x86
only for now. There is a possibility that other architectures (namely,
arm64 and RISC-V), that are implementing equivalent support for shadow
stacks, might need to add support for it.
Independent of that, reserving arch-specific syscall numbers in the
syscall tables of all architectures is good practice and would help
avoid future conflicts. map_shadow_stack() is marked as a conditional
syscall in sys_ni.c. Adding it to the syscall tables of other
architectures is harmless and would return ENOSYS when exercised.
Note, map_shadow_stack() was assigned #453 during the merge process
since #452 was taken by fchmodat2().
For Powerpc, map it to sys_ni_syscall() as is the norm for Powerpc
syscall tables.
For Alpha, map_shadow_stack() takes up #563 as Alpha still diverges from
the common syscall numbering system in the other architectures.

POWER throws a splat at boot, it looks like the DMA ops were probably
changed while a driver was attached. Something is still weird about how
power sequences its bootup. Previously this was hidden since the core
iommu code did nothing during probe, now it calls
spapr_tce_platform_iommu_attach_dev().
Make spapr_tce_platform_iommu_attach_dev() do nothing on the probe time
call like it did before.

PowerPC has a 'btext' font used for the console which is almost identical
to the shared font_sun8x16, so use it rather than duplicating the data.
They were actually identical until about a decade ago when
commit bcfbeecea11c ("drivers: console: font_: Change a glyph from
"broken bar" to "vertical line"")
which changed the | in the shared font to be a solid
bar rather than a broken bar. That's the only difference.
This was originally spotted by the PMF source code analyser, which
noticed that sparc does the same thing with the same data, and they
also share a bunch of functions to manipulate the data. I've previously
posted a near identical patch for sparc.
Tested very lightly with a boot without FS in qemu.
