The CPUID leaf 0x4 parsing code at cpuid4_cache_lookup_regs() is ugly and
convoluted. It is tangled with multiple nested conditions to handle:
* AMD with TOPEXT, or Hygon CPUs via leaf 0x8000001d
* Legacy AMD fallback via leaf 0x4 emulation
* Intel CPUs via the actual CPUID leaf 0x4
Moreover, AMD L3 northbridge initialization is also awkwardly placed
alongside the CPUID calls of the first two scenarios above. Refactor all
of that as follows:
* Update AMD's leaf 0x4 emulation comment to represent current state
* Clearly label the AMD leaf 0x4 emulation function as a fallback
* Split AMD/Hygon and Intel code paths into separate functions
* Move AMD L3 northbridge initialization out of CPUID leaf 0x4 code,
and into populate_cache_leaves() where it belongs. There,
ci_info_init() can directly store the initialized object in the
private pointer of the <linux/cacheinfo.h> API.

Per Documentation/filesystems/sysfs.rst, a sysfs attribute's show()
method should only use sysfs_emit() or sysfs_emit_at() when returning
values to user space.
Use sysfs_emit() for the AMD L3 cache sysfs attributes cache_disable_0,
cache_disable_1, and subcaches.

Parent commit decoupled amd_northbridge out of _cpuid4_info_regs, where
it was merely "parked" there until ci_info_init() can store it in the
private pointer of the <linux/cacheinfo.h> API.
Given that decoupling, move the AMD-specific L3 cache_disable_0/1 sysfs
code from the generic (and already extremely convoluted) x86/cacheinfo
code into its own file.
Compile the file only if CONFIG_AMD_NB and CONFIG_SYSFS are both
enabled, which mirrors the existing logic.

'struct _cpuid4_info_regs' is meant to hold the CPUID leaf 0x4
output registers (EAX, EBX, and ECX), as well as derived information
such as the cache node ID and size.
It also contains a reference to amd_northbridge, which is there only to
be "parked" until ci_info_init() can store it in the priv pointer of the
<linux/cacheinfo.h> API. That priv pointer is then used by AMD-specific
L3 cache_disable_0/1 sysfs attributes.
Decouple amd_northbridge from _cpuid4_info_regs and pass it explicitly
through the functions at x86/cacheinfo. Doing so clarifies when
amd_northbridge is actually needed (AMD-only code) and when it is
not (Intel-specific code). It also prepares for moving the AMD-specific
L3 cache_disable_0/1 sysfs code into its own file in next commit.

While gathering CPU cache info, CPUID leaf 0x8000001d is invoked in two
separate if blocks: one for Hygon CPUs and one for AMDs with topology
extensions. After each invocation, amd_init_l3_cache() is called.
Merge the two if blocks into a single condition, thus removing the
duplicated code. Future commits will expand these if blocks, so
combining them now is both cleaner and more maintainable.
Note, while at it, remove a useless "better error?" comment that was
within the same function since the 2005 commit e2cac78935ff ("[PATCH]
x86_64: When running cpuid4 need to run on the correct CPU").
Note, as previously done at commit aec28d852ed2 ("x86/cpuid: Standardize

The cacheinfo code frequently uses the output registers from CPUID leaf
0x4. Such registers are cached in 'struct _cpuid4_info_regs', augmented
with related information, and are then passed across functions.
The naming of these _cpuid4_info_regs instances is confusing at best.
Some instances are called "this_leaf", which is vague as "this" lacks
context and "leaf" is overly generic given that other CPUID leaves are
also processed within cacheinfo. Other _cpuid4_info_regs instances are
just called "base", adding further ambiguity.
Standardize on id4 for all instances.

The cacheinfo structure defined at <include/linux/cacheinfo.h> is a
generic cache info object representation.
Calling its instances at x86 cacheinfo.c "leaf" confuses it with a CPUID
leaf -- especially that multiple CPUID calls are already sprinkled across
that file. Most of such instances also have a redundant "this_" prefix.
Rename all of the cacheinfo "this_leaf" instances to just "ci".

amd_cpuid4()'s first parameter, "leaf", is not a CPUID leaf as the name
implies. Rather, it's an index emulating CPUID(4)'s subleaf semantics;
i.e. an ID for the cache object currently enumerated. Rename that
parameter to "index".
Apply minor coding style fixes to the rest of the function as well.

Leaf 0x2 output includes a "query count" byte where it was supposed to
specify the number of repeated CPUID leaf 0x2 subleaf 0 queries needed to
extract all of the CPU's cache and TLB descriptors.

return an iteration count of 1.

Update kcpuid's CSV file to version 2.3, as generated by x86-cpuid-db.
Summary of the v2.3 changes:
* Per H. Peter Anvin's feedback, leaf 0x3 is not unique to Transmeta as
the CSV file earlier claimed. Since leaf 0x3's format differs between
Intel and Transmeta, and the project does not yet support having the
same CPUID bitfield with varying interpretations across vendors, leaf
0x3 is removed for now. Given that Intel discontinued support for PSN
from Pentium 4 onward, and Linux force disables it on early boot for
privacy concerns, this should have minimal impact.
* Leaf 0x80000021: Make bitfield IDs and descriptions coherent with each
other. Remove "_support" from bitfield IDs, as no other leaf has such
convention.

Update kcpuid's CSV file to version v2.0, as generated by x86-cpuid-db.
Summary of the v2.0 changes:
* Introduce the leaves:
- Leaf 0x00000003, Transmeta Processor serial number
- Leaf 0x80860000, Transmeta max leaf number + CPU vendor ID
- Leaf 0x80860001, Transmeta extended CPU information
- Leaf 0x80860002, Transmeta Code Morphing Software (CMS) enumeration
- Leaf 0x80860003 => 0x80860006, Transmeta CPU information string
- Leaf 0x80860007, Transmeta "live" CPU information
- Leaf 0xc0000000, Centaur/Zhaoxin's max leaf number
- Leaf 0xc0000001, Centaur/Zhaoxin's extended CPU features
* Add a 0x prefix for leaves 0x0 to 0x9. This maintains consistency with
the rest of the CSV entries.
* Add the new bitfields:
- Leaf 0x7: nmi_src, NMI-source reporting
- Leaf 0x80000001: e_base_type and e_mmx (Transmeta)
* Update the section headers for leaves 0x80000000 and 0x80000005 to
indicate that they are also valid for Transmeta.
Notes:
Leaf 0x3, being not unique to Transmeta, is handled at the generated
CSV file v2.3 update, later in this patch queue.
Leaf 0x80000001 EDX:23 bit, e_mmx, is also available on AMD. A bugfix
is already merged at x86-cpuid-db's -tip for that, and it will be part
of the project's upcoming v2.4 release.:

Next commits will introduce vendor-specific CPUID ranges like Transmeta's
0x8086000 range and Centaur's 0xc0000000.
Initially explicit vendor detection was implemented, but it turned out to
be not strictly necessary. As Dave Hansen noted, even established tools
like cpuid(1) just tries all ranges indices, and see if the CPU responds
back with something sensible.
Do something similar at setup_cpuid_range(). Query the range's index,
and check the maximum range function value returned. If it's within an
expected interval of [range_index, range_index + MAX_RANGE_INDEX_OFFSET],
accept the range as valid and further query its leaves.
Set MAX_RANGE_INDEX_OFFSET to a heuristic of 0xff. That should be
sensible enough since all the ranges covered by x86-cpuid-db XML database
are:
0x00000000 0x00000023
0x40000000 0x40000000
0x80000000 0x80000026
0x80860000 0x80860007
0xc0000000 0xc0000001
At setup_cpuid_range(), if the range's returned maximum function was not
sane, mark it as invalid by setting its number of leaves, range->nr, to
zero.
Introduce the for_each_valid_cpuid_range() iterator instead of sprinkling
"range->nr != 0" checks throughout the code.

Extend the CPUID index mask macro from 0x80000000 to 0xffff0000. This
accommodates the Transmeta (0x80860000) and Centaur (0xc0000000) index
ranges which will be later added.
This also automatically sets CPUID_FUNCTION_MASK to 0x0000ffff, which is
the actual correct value. Use that macro, instead of the 0xffff literal
where appropriate.

The kcpuid code assumes only two CPUID index ranges, standard (0x0...)
and extended (0x80000000...).
Since additional CPUID index ranges will be added in further commits,
replace the "is_ext" boolean with enumeration-based range classification.
Collect all CPUID ranges in a structured array and introduce helper
macros to iterate over it. Use such helpers throughout the code.

Use the __cpuid_count() intrinsic, provided by GCC and LLVM, instead of
rolling a manual version. Both of the kernel's minimum required GCC
version (5.1) and LLVM version (13.0.1) supports it, and it is heavily
used across standard Linux user-space tooling.
This also makes the CPUID call sites more readable.

allows C99-style variable declarations inside of a for() loop.
Adjust the kcpuid code accordingly.
Note, this helps readability as some of the kcpuid functions have a huge
list of variable declarations on top.
Note, remove the empty lines before cpuid() invocations as it is clearer
to have their parameter initialization and the actual call in one block.

kcpuid --all --detail claims that all bits belong to ECX, in the form
of the header CPUID_${leaf}_ECX[${subleaf}].
Print the correct register name for all CPUID output.
kcpuid --detail also dumps the raw register value if a leaf/subleaf is
covered in the CSV file, but a certain output register within it is not
covered by any CSV entry. Since register names are now properly printed,
and since the CSV file has become exhaustive using x86-cpuid-db, remove
that value dump as it pollutes the output.
While at it, rename decode_bits() to show_reg(). This makes it match its
show_range(), show_leaf() and show_reg_header() counterparts.

For each CPUID leaf/subleaf query, save the output in an output[] array
instead of spelling it out using EAX to EDX variables.
This allows the CPUID output to be accessed programmatically instead of
calling decode_bits() four times. Loop-based access also allows "kcpuid
--detail" to print the correct output register names in next commit.

Refactor usage() to accept an exit code parameter and exit the program

If the user passed an invalid CPUID index value through --leaf=index,
kcpuid prints a warning, does nothing, then exits successfully.
Transform the warning to an error, and exit the program with a proper
error code.
Similarly, if the user passed an invalid subleaf, kcpuid prints a
warning, dumps the whole leaf, then exits successfully. Print a clear
error message regarding the invalid subleaf and exit the program with the
proper error code.
Note, moving the "Invalid input index" message from index_to_func() to
show_info() localizes error message handling to the latter, where it
should be. It also allows index_to_func() to be refactored at further
commits.
Note, since after this commit and its parent kcpuid does not just "move
on" on failures, remove the NULL parameter check plus silent exit at
show_func() and show_leaf().

Error handling in kcpuid is unreliable. On malloc() failures, the code
prints an error then just goes on. The error messages are also printed
to standard output instead of standard error.
Use err() and errx() from <err.h> to direct all error messages to
standard error and automatically exit the program. Use err() to include
the errno information, and errx() otherwise. Use warnx() for warnings.
While at it, alphabetically reorder the header includes.

We've had this before: when we remove infrastructure to generate files,
the old stale build artifacts still remain in-tree. And when the
infrastructure to generate them is gone, so is the gitignore file for
those build artifacts.
End result: git will see the old generated files, and people will
mistakenly commit them. That's what happened with the 'genheaders' file
not that long ago (see commit 04a3389b3535 "Remove stale generated
'genheaders' file").
This time it's commit 9c54baab4401 ("x86/boot: Drop CRC-32 checksum and
the build tool that generates it") that removed the 'build' file from
the arch/x86/boot/tools/ subdirectory, and removed the .gitignore file
too (because the whole subdirectory is gone).
And as a result, if you don't do a 'git clean -dqfx' or similar to clean
up your tree, 'git status' will say
Untracked files:
(use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)
arch/x86/boot/tools/
and some hapless sleep-deprived developer will inevitably decide that
that means that they need to 'git add' that directory. Which would
bring back some stale generated file that we most definitely do not want
in the tree.
So when removing directories that had special .gitignore patterns, make
sure to add a new gitignore entry in the parent directory for the no
longer existing subdirectory.
It will avoid mistakes.

Pull objtool updates from Ingo Molnar:
- The biggest change is the new option to automatically fail the build
on objtool warnings: CONFIG_OBJTOOL_WERROR.
While there are no currently known unfixed false positives left, such
an expansion in the severity of objtool warnings inevitably creates a
risk of build failures, so it's disabled by default and depends on
!COMPILE_TEST, so it shouldn't be enabled on
allyesconfig/allmodconfig builds and won't be forced on people who
just accept build-time defaults in 'make oldconfig'.
While the option is strongly recommended, only people who enable it
explicitly should see it.

Pull RCU updates from Boqun Feng:
"Documentation:
- 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:
- 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 avoid
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
RCU torture:
- 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:
- 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()
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

Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
"It has been a reasonably busy cycle for docs...
- Significant changes throughout the tree to bring Python code up to
current standards and raise the minimum Python required to 3.9
Much of this is preparatory to replacing the ancient Perl
scripts/kernel-doc horror with a slightly less horrifying Python
implementation, expected for 6.16
- Update the minimum Sphinx required to 3.4.3, allowing us to remove
a bunch of older compatibility code
- Rework and improve the generation of the ABI documentation
(All of the above done by Mauro)
- Lots of translation updates. Alex Shi and Yanteng Si are taking on
responsibility for the Chinese translations going forward; that
work will still get to you via docs-next
- Try to standardize the format for indicating a developer's
affiliation in commit tags
- Clarify the TAB's role in CoC enforcement actions
- Try to spell out the rules for when a commit tag can name another
developer without their explicit permission
Plus lots of other typo fixes and updates"
