sg_next() is a short function called frequently in I/O paths. Define it
in the header file so it can be inlined into its callers.

Inspired by mutex blocker tracking[1], this patch makes a trade-off to
balance the overhead and utility of the hung task detector.
Unlike mutexes, semaphores lack explicit ownership tracking, making it
challenging to identify the root cause of hangs. To address this, we
introduce a last_holder field to the semaphore structure, which is updated
when a task successfully calls down() and cleared during up().
The assumption is that if a task is blocked on a semaphore, the holders
must not have released it. While this does not guarantee that the last
holder is one of the current blockers, it likely provides a practical hint
for diagnosing semaphore-related stalls.
With this change, the hung task detector can now show blocker task's info

This patch (of 3):
This patch replaces 'struct mutex *blocker_mutex' with 'unsigned long
blocker', as only one blocker is active at a time.
The blocker filed can store both the lock addrees and the lock type, with
LSB used to encode the type as Masami suggested, making it easier to
extend the feature to cover other types of locks.
Also, once the lock type is determined, we can directly extract the
address and cast it to a lock pointer ;)

While the natural choice of PTR_IF() is kconfig.h, the latter is too broad
to include C code and actually the macro was moved out from there in the
past. But kernel.h is neither a good choice for that. Move it to
util_macros.h. Do the same for u64_to_user_ptr().
While moving, add necessary documentation.

Patch series "kernel.h: Move out a couple of macros and constants".
kernel.h hosts a couple of macros and constants that may be better placed.
Do that. Also add missing documentation. No functional changes
intended.
This patch (of 2):
Headers shouldn't be forced to include <linux/kernel.h> just to
gain these simple constants.

It is useful to be able to access current->mm at task exit to, say, record
a bunch of VMA information right before the task exits (e.g., for stack
symbolization reasons when dealing with short-lived processes that exit in
the middle of profiling session). Currently, trace_sched_process_exit()
is triggered after exit_mm() which resets current->mm to NULL making this
tracepoint unsuitable for inspecting and recording task's
mm_struct-related data when tracing process lifetimes.
There is a particularly suitable place, though, right after
taskstats_exit() is called, but before we do exit_mm() and other exit_*()
resource teardowns. taskstats performs a similar kind of accounting that
some applications do with BPF, and so co-locating them seems like a good
fit. So that's where trace_sched_process_exit() is moved with this patch.
Also, existing trace_sched_process_exit() tracepoint is notoriously
missing `group_dead` flag that is certainly useful in practice and some of
our production applications have to work around this. So plumb
`group_dead` through while at it, to have a richer and more complete
tracepoint.
Note that we can't use sched_process_template anymore, and so we use
TRACE_EVENT()-based tracepoint definition. But all the field names and
order, as well as assign and output logic remain intact. We just add one
extra field at the end in backwards-compatible way.

Currently the VMA and mmap locking logic is entangled in two of the most
overwrought files in mm - include/linux/mm.h and mm/memory.c. Separate
this logic out so we can more easily make changes and create an
appropriate MAINTAINERS entry that spans only the logic relating to
locking.
This should have no functional change. Care is taken to avoid dependency
loops, we must regrettably keep release_fault_lock() and
assert_fault_locked() in mm.h as a result due to the dependence on the
vm_fault type.
Additionally we must declare rcuwait_wake_up() manually to avoid a
dependency cycle on linux/rcuwait.h.
Additionally move the nommu implementatino of lock_mm_and_find_vma() to
mmap_lock.c so everything lock-related is in one place.

free_page_and_swap_cache() takes a struct page pointer as input parameter,
but it will immediately convert it to folio and all operations following
within use folio instead of page. It makes more sense to pass in folio
directly.
Convert free_page_and_swap_cache() to free_folio_and_swap_cache() to
consume folio directly.

In order to support rebalancing and spanning stores using less than the
worst case number of nodes, we need to track more than just the vacant
height. Using only vacant height to reduce the worst case maple node
allocation count can lead to a shortcoming of nodes in the following
scenarios.
For rebalancing writes, when a leaf node becomes insufficient, it may be
combined with a sibling into a single node. This means that the parent
node which has entries for this children will lose one entry. If this
parent node was just meeting the minimum entries, losing one entry will
now cause this parent node to be insufficient. This leads to a cascading
operation of rebalancing at different levels and can lead to more node
allocations than simply using vacant height can return.
For spanning writes, a similar situation occurs. At the location at which
a spanning write is detected, the number of ancestor nodes may similarly
need to rebalanced into a smaller number of nodes and the same cascading
situation could occur.
To use less than the full height of the tree for the number of
allocations, we also need to track the height at which a non-leaf node
cannot become insufficient. This means even if a rebalance occurs to a
child of this node, it currently has enough entries that it can lose one
without any further action. This field is stored in the maple write state
as sufficient height. In mas_prealloc_calc() when figuring out how many
nodes to allocate, we check if the vacant node is lower in the tree than a
sufficient node (has a larger value). If it is, we cannot use the vacant
height and must use the difference in the height and sufficient height as
the basis for the number of nodes needed.
An off by one bug was also discovered in mast_overflow() where it is using
>= rather than >. This caused extra iterations of the
mas_spanning_rebalance() loop and lead to unneeded allocations. A test is
also added to check the number of allocations is correct.

In order to determine the store type for a maple tree operation, a walk of
the tree is done through mas_wr_walk(). This function descends the tree
until a spanning write is detected or we reach a leaf node. While
descending, keep track of the height at which we encounter a node with
available space. This is done by checking if mas->end is less than the
number of slots a given node type can fit.
Now that the height of the vacant node is tracked, we can use the
difference between the height of the tree and the height of the vacant
node to know how many levels we will have to propagate creating new nodes.
Update mas_prealloc_calc() to consider the vacant height and reduce the
number of worst-case allocations.
Rebalancing and spanning stores are not supported and fall back to using
the full height of the tree for allocations.
Update preallocation testing assertions to take into account vacant
height.

Split page table locks are not used for pgtables associated to init_mm, at
any level. pte_alloc_kernel() does not call ptlock_init() as a result.
There is however no separate alloc/free functions for kernel PMDs, and
pmd_ptlock_init() is called unconditionally. When ALLOC_SPLIT_PTLOCKS is
true (e.g. 32-bit architectures or if CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT is selected),
this results in unnecessary dynamic memory allocation every time a kernel
PMD is allocated.
Now that pagetable_pmd_ctor() is passed the associated mm, we can easily
remove this overhead by skipping pmd_ptlock_init() if the pgtable is
associated to init_mm. No special-casing is needed on the dtor path, as
ptlock_free() is already called unconditionally for all levels.
(ptlock_free() is a no-op unless a ptlock was allocated for the given
PTP.)

Since [1], constructors/destructors are expected to be called for all page
table pages, at all levels and for both user and kernel pgtables. There
is however one glaring exception: kernel PTEs are managed via separate
helpers (pte_alloc_kernel/pte_free_kernel), which do not call the [cd]tor,
at least not in the generic implementation.
The most obvious reason for this anomaly is that init_mm is special-cased
not to use split page table locks. As a result calling ptlock_init() for
PTEs associated with init_mm would be wasteful, potentially resulting in
dynamic memory allocation. However, pgtable [cd]tors perform other
actions - currently related to accounting/statistics, and potentially more
functionally significant in the future.
Now that pagetable_pte_ctor() is passed the associated mm, we can make it
skip the call to ptlock_init() for init_mm; this allows us to call the
ctor from pte_alloc_one_kernel() too. This is matched by a call to the
pgtable destructor in pte_free_kernel(); no special-casing is needed on
that path, as ptlock_free() is already called unconditionally.
(ptlock_free() is a no-op unless a ptlock was allocated for the given
PTP.)
This patch ensures that all architectures that rely on
<asm-generic/pgalloc.h> call the [cd]tor for kernel PTEs.
pte_free_kernel() cannot be overridden so changing the generic
implementation is sufficient. pte_alloc_one_kernel() can be overridden
using __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_ALLOC_ONE_KERNEL, and a few architectures implement
it by calling the page allocator directly. We amend those so that they
call the generic __pte_alloc_one_kernel() instead, if possible, ensuring
that the ctor is called.
A few architectures do not use <asm-generic/pgalloc.h>; those will be
taken care of separately.

Patch series "Always call constructor for kernel page tables", v2.
There has been much confusion around exactly when page table
constructors/destructors (pagetable_*_[cd]tor) are supposed to be called.
They were initially introduced for user PTEs only (to support split page
table locks), then at the PMD level for the same purpose. Accounting was
added later on, starting at the PTE level and then moving to higher levels
(PMD, PUD). Finally, with my earlier series "Account page tables at all
levels" [1], the ctor/dtor is run for all levels, all the way to PGD.
I thought this was the end of the story, and it hopefully is for user
pgtables, but I was wrong for what concerns kernel pgtables. The current
situation there makes very little sense:
* At the PTE level, the ctor/dtor is not called (at least in the generic
implementation). Specific helpers are used for kernel pgtables at this
level (pte_{alloc,free}_kernel()) and those have never called the
ctor/dtor, most likely because they were initially irrelevant in the
kernel case.
* At all other levels, the ctor/dtor is normally called. This is
potentially wasteful at the PMD level (more on that later).
This series aims to ensure that the ctor/dtor is always called for kernel
pgtables, as it already is for user pgtables. Besides consistency, the
main motivation is to guarantee that ctor/dtor hooks are systematically
called; this makes it possible to insert hooks to protect page tables [2],
for instance. There is however an extra challenge: split locks are not
used for kernel pgtables, and it would therefore be wasteful to initialise
them (ptlock_init()).
It is worth clarifying exactly when split locks are used. They clearly
are for user pgtables, but as illustrated in commit 61444cde9170 ("ARM:
8591/1: mm: use fully constructed struct pages for EFI pgd allocations"),
they also are for special page tables like efi_mm. The one case where
split locks are definitely unused is pgtables owned by init_mm; this is
consistent with the behaviour of apply_to_pte_range().
The approach chosen in this series is therefore to pass the mm associated
to the pgtables being constructed to pagetable_{pte,pmd}_ctor() (patch 1),
and skip ptlock_init() if mm == &init_mm (patch 3 and 7). This makes it
possible to call the PTE ctor/dtor from pte_{alloc,free}_kernel() without
unintended consequences (patch 3). As a result the accounting functions
are now called at all levels for kernel pgtables, and split locks are
never initialised.
In configurations where ptlocks are dynamically allocated (32-bit,
PREEMPT_RT, etc.) and ARCH_ENABLE_SPLIT_PMD_PTLOCK is selected, this
series results in the removal of a kmem_cache allocation for every kernel
PMD. Additionally, for certain architectures that do not use
<asm-generic/pgalloc.h> such as s390, the same optimisation occurs at the
PTE level.
===
Things get more complicated when it comes to special pgtable allocators
(patch 8-12). All architectures need such allocators to create initial
kernel pgtables; we are not concerned with those as the ctor cannot be
called so early in the boot sequence. However, those allocators may also
be used later in the boot sequence or during normal operations. There are
two main use-cases:
1. Mapping EFI memory: efi_mm (arm, arm64, riscv)
2. arch_add_memory(): init_mm
The ctor is already explicitly run (at the PTE/PMD level) in the first
case, as required for pgtables that are not associated with init_mm.
However the same allocators may also be used for the second use-case (or
others), and this is where it gets messy. Patch 1 calls the ctor with
NULL as mm in those situations, as the actual mm isn't available.
Practically this means that ptlocks will be unconditionally initialised.
This is fine on arm - create_mapping_late() is only used for the EFI
mapping. On arm64, __create_pgd_mapping() is also used by
arch_add_memory(); patch 8/9/11 ensure that ctors are called at all levels
with the appropriate mm. The situation is similar on riscv, but
propagating the mm down to the ctor would require significant refactoring.
Since they are already called unconditionally, this series leaves riscv
no worse off - patch 10 adds comments to clarify the situation.
From a cursory look at other architectures implementing arch_add_memory(),
s390 and x86 may also need a similar treatment to add constructor calls.
This is to be taken care of in a future version or as a follow-up.
===
The complications in those special pgtable allocators beg the question:
does it really make sense to treat efi_mm and init_mm differently in e.g.
apply_to_pte_range()? Maybe what we really need is a way to tell if an mm
corresponds to user memory or not, and never use split locks for non-user
mm's. Feedback and suggestions welcome!
This patch (of 12):
In preparation for calling constructors for all kernel page tables while
eliding unnecessary ptlock initialisation, let's pass down the associated
mm to the PTE/PMD level ctors. (These are the two levels where ptlocks
are used.)
In most cases the mm is already around at the point of calling the ctor so
we simply pass it down. This is however not the case for special page
table allocators:
* arch/arm/mm/mmu.c
* arch/arm64/mm/mmu.c
* arch/riscv/mm/init.c
In those cases, the page tables being allocated are either for standard
kernel memory (init_mm) or special page directories, which may not be
associated to any mm. For now let's pass NULL as mm; this will be refined
where possible in future patches.
No functional change in this patch.

Change xa_alloc_cyclic() to return 0 even on wrap-around. Do the same for
xa_alloc_cyclic_irq() and xa_alloc_cyclic_bh().
This will prevent any future bug of treating return of 1 as an error:
int ret = xa_alloc_cyclic(...)
if (ret) // currently mishandles ret==1
goto failure;
If there will be someone interested in when wrap-around occurs, there is
still __xa_alloc_cyclic() that behaves as before. For now there is no
such user.

Last argument in effective_prot() is u64 assuming pxd_val() returned value
(all page table levels) is 64 bit. pxd_val() is very platform specific
and its type should not be assumed in generic MM.
Split effective_prot() into individual page table level specific callbacks
which accepts corresponding pxd_t argument instead and then the
subscribing platform (only x86) just derive pxd_val() from the entries as
required and proceed as earlier.

Patch series "mm/ptdump: Drop assumption that pxd_val() is u64", v2.
Last argument passed down in note_page() is u64 assuming pxd_val()
returned value (all page table levels) is 64 bit - which might not be the
case going ahead when D128 page tables is enabled on arm64 platform.
Besides pxd_val() is very platform specific and its type should not be
assumed in generic MM. A similar problem exists for effective_prot(),
although it is restricted to x86 platform.
This series splits note_page() and effective_prot() into individual page
table level specific callbacks which accepts corresponding pxd_t page
table entry as an argument instead and later on all subscribing platforms
could derive pxd_val() from the table entries as required and proceed as
before.
Define ptdesc_t type which describes the basic page table descriptor
layout on arm64 platform. Subsequently all level specific pxxval_t
descriptors are derived from ptdesc_t thus establishing a common original
format, which can also be appropriate for page table entries, masks and
protection values etc which are used at all page table levels.
This patch (of 3):

page that was being handled earlier via level = -1.

Patch series "Fix parameter passed to page_mapcount_is_type()", v2.
Found by code inspection. There are two places where the parameter passed
to page_mapcount_is_type() is (page->_mapcount), which is incorrect since
it should be one more than the value, as explained in the comments to
page_mapcount_is_type(): (a) page_has_type() in page-flags.h (b)
__dump_folio() in mm/debug.c
PATCH[1] fixes the parameter for (a)
PATCH[2] fixes the parameter for (b)
Note that the issue doesn't cause any visible impacts due to the safety
gap introduced by PGTY_mapcount_underflow limit. So the tag 'Cc:
stable@vger.kernel.org' isn't needed.
This patch (of 2):
As the comments of page_mapcount_is_type() indicate, the parameter passed
to the function should be one more than page->_mapcount. However,
page->_mapcount (equivalent to page->page_type) is passed to the function
by commit 4ffca5a96678 ("mm: support only one page_type per page")
page_type_has_type() is replaced by page_mapcount_is_type(), but the
parameter isn't adjusted.
Fix it by replacing page_mapcount_is_type() with page_type_has_type() in
page_has_type(). Note that the issue doesn't cause any visible impacts
due to the safety gap introduced by PGTY_mapcount_underflow limit.

Patch series "fs/proc: extend the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl to report guard
regions", v2.
Introduce the PAGE_IS_GUARD flag in the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl to expose
information about guard regions. This allows userspace tools, such as
CRIU, to detect and handle guard regions.
Currently, CRIU utilizes PAGEMAP_SCAN as a more efficient alternative to
parsing /proc/pid/pagemap. Without this change, guard regions are
incorrectly reported as swap-anon regions, leading CRIU to attempt dumping
them and subsequently failing.
The series includes updates to the documentation and selftests to reflect
the new functionality.

PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO is a generic ptrace API that complements
PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO by letting the ptracer modify details of system
calls the tracee is blocked in.
This API allows ptracers to obtain and modify system call details in a
straightforward and architecture-agnostic way, providing a consistent way
of manipulating the system call number and arguments across architectures.
As in case of PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO, PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO also does
not aim to address numerous architecture-specific system call ABI
peculiarities, like differences in the number of system call arguments for
such system calls as pread64 and preadv.
The current implementation supports changing only those bits of system
call information that are used by strace system call tampering, namely,
syscall number, syscall arguments, and syscall return value.
Support of changing additional details returned by
PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO, such as instruction pointer and stack pointer,
could be added later if needed, by using struct ptrace_syscall_info.flags
to specify the additional details that should be set. Currently, "flags"
and "reserved" fields of struct ptrace_syscall_info must be initialized
with zeroes; "arch", "instruction_pointer", and "stack_pointer" fields are
currently ignored.
PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO currently supports only PTRACE_SYSCALL_INFO_ENTRY,
PTRACE_SYSCALL_INFO_EXIT, and PTRACE_SYSCALL_INFO_SECCOMP operations.
Other operations could be added later if needed.
Ideally, PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO should have been introduced along with
PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO, but it didn't happen. The last straw that
convinced me to implement PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO was apparent failure to
provide an API of changing the first system call argument on riscv
architecture.
ptrace(2) man page:
long ptrace(enum __ptrace_request request, pid_t pid, void *addr, void *data);
...
PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO
Modify information about the system call that caused the stop.
The "data" argument is a pointer to struct ptrace_syscall_info
that specifies the system call information to be set.
The "addr" argument should be set to sizeof(struct ptrace_syscall_info)).

Patch series "memory,x86,acpi: hotplug memory alignment advisement", v8.
When physical address regions are not aligned to memory block size, the
misaligned portion is lost (stranded capacity).
Block size (min/max/selected) is architecture defined. Most architectures
tend to use the minimum block size or some simplistic heurist. On x86,
memory block size increases up to 2GB, and is otherwise fitted to the
alignment of non-hotplug (i.e. not special purpose memory).
CXL exposes its memory for management through the ACPI CEDT (CXL Early
Detection Table) in a field called the CXL Fixed Memory Window. Per the
CXL specification, this memory must be aligned to at least 256MB.
When a CFMW aligns on a size less than the block size, this causes a loss
of up to 2GB per CFMW on x86. It is not uncommon for CFMW to be allocated
per-device - though this behavior is BIOS defined.
This patch set provides 3 things:
1) implement advise/query functions in driverse/base/memory.c to
report/query architecture agnostic hotplug block alignment advice.
2) update x86 memblock size logic to consider the hotplug advice
3) add code in acpi/numa/srat.c to report CFMW alignment advice
The advisement interfaces are design to be called during arch_init code
prior to allocator and smp_init. start_kernel will call these through
setup_arch() (via acpi and mm/init_64.c on x86), which occurs prior to
mm_core_init and smp_init - so no need for atomics.
There's an attempt to signal callers to advise() that query has already
occurred, but this is predicated on the notion that query actually occurs
(which presently only happens on the x86 arch). This is to assist
debugging future users. Otherwise, the advise() call has been marked
__init to help static discovery of bad call times.
Once query is called the first time, it will always return the same value.
Interfaces return -EBUSY and 0 respectively on systems without hotplug.
This patch (of 3):
Hotplug memory sources may have opinions on what the memblock size should
be - usually for alignment purposes. For example, CXL memory extents can
be 256MB with a matching alignment. If this size/alignment is smaller
than the block size, it can result in stranded capacity.
Implement memory_block_advise_max_size for use prior to allocator init,
for software to advise the system on the max block size.
Implement memory_block_probe_max_size for use by arch init code to
calculate the best block size. Use of advice is architecture defined.
The probe value can never change after first probe. Calls to advise after
probe will return -EBUSY to aid debugging.
On systems without hotplug, always return -ENODEV and 0 respectively.

Currently, zsmalloc, zswap's and zram's backend memory allocator, does not
enforce any policy for the allocation of memory for the compressed data,
instead just adopting the memory policy of the task entering reclaim, or
the default policy (prefer local node) if no such policy is specified.
This can lead to several pathological behaviors in multi-node NUMA
systems:
1. Systems with CXL-based memory tiering can encounter the following
inversion with zswap/zram: the coldest pages demoted to the CXL tier
can return to the high tier when they are reclaimed to compressed swap,
creating memory pressure on the high tier.
2. Consider a direct reclaimer scanning nodes in order of allocation
preference. If it ventures into remote nodes, the memory it compresses
there should stay there. Trying to shift those contents over to the
reclaiming thread's preferred node further *increases* its local
pressure, and provoking more spills. The remote node is also the most
likely to refault this data again. This undesirable behavior was
pointed out by Johannes Weiner in [1].
3. For zswap writeback, the zswap entries are organized in
node-specific LRUs, based on the node placement of the original pages,
allowing for targeted zswap writeback for specific nodes.
However, the compressed data of a zswap entry can be placed on a
different node from the LRU it is placed on. This means that reclaim
targeted at one node might not free up memory used for zswap entries in
that node, but instead reclaiming memory in a different node.
All of these issues will be resolved if the compressed data go to the same
node as the original page. This patch encourages this behavior by having
zswap and zram pass the node of the original page to zsmalloc, and have
zsmalloc prefer the specified node if we need to allocate new (zs)pages
for the compressed data.
Note that we are not strictly binding the allocation to the preferred
node. We still allow the allocation to fall back to other nodes when the
preferred node is full, or if we have zspages with slots available on a
different node. This is OK, and still a strict improvement over the
status quo:
1. On a system with demotion enabled, we will generally prefer
demotions over compressed swapping, and only swap when pages have
already gone to the lowest tier. This patch should achieve the desired
effect for the most part.
2. If the preferred node is out of memory, letting the compressed data
going to other nodes can be better than the alternative (OOMs, keeping
cold memory unreclaimed, disk swapping, etc.).
3. If the allocation go to a separate node because we have a zspage
with slots available, at least we're not creating extra immediate
memory pressure (since the space is already allocated).
3. While there can be mixings, we generally reclaim pages in same-node
batches, which encourage zspage grouping that is more likely to go to
the right node.
4. A strict binding would require partitioning zsmalloc by node, which
is more complicated, and more prone to regression, since it reduces the
storage density of zsmalloc. We need to evaluate the tradeoff and
benchmark carefully before adopting such an involved solution.

Patch series "Misc folio patches for 6.16".
Remove a few APIs that we've converted everybody from using. I also found
a few places that extract a page pointer from i_pages, which will be an
invalid thing to do when we separate pages from folios.
This patch (of 8):
All filesystems have now been converted to call readahead_folio() so we
can delete this wrapper.

The only remaining user of mk_huge_pte() is the debug code, so remove the
API and replace its use with pfn_pte() which lets us remove the conversion
to a page first. We should always call arch_make_huge_pte() to turn this
PTE into a huge PTE before operating on it with huge_pte_mkdirty() etc.

Commit 51ff4d7486f0 ("mm: avoid extra mem_alloc_profiling_enabled()
checks") introduces a possible use-after-free scenario, when page
is non-compound, page[0] could be released by other thread right
after put_page_testzero failed in current thread, pgalloc_tag_sub_pages
afterwards would manipulate an invalid page for accounting remaining
pages:

| get_page, rf counter inc
V
| in ___free_pages
| put_page_testzero fails
V
| put_page, page released
V
| in ___free_pages,
| pgalloc_tag_sub_pages
| manipulate an invalid page
V
Restore __free_pages() to its state before, retrieve alloc tag
beforehand.

Pull x86 ITS mitigation from Dave Hansen:
"Mitigate Indirect Target Selection (ITS) issue.
I'd describe this one as a good old CPU bug where the behavior is
_obviously_ wrong, but since it just results in bad predictions it
wasn't wrong enough to notice. Well, the researchers noticed and also
realized that thus bug undermined a bunch of existing indirect branch
mitigations.
Thus the unusually wide impact on this one. Details:
ITS is a bug in some Intel CPUs that affects indirect branches
including RETs in the first half of a cacheline. Due to ITS such
branches may get wrongly predicted to a target of (direct or indirect)
branch that is located in the second half of a cacheline. Researchers
at VUSec found this behavior and reported to Intel.
Affected processors:
- Cascade Lake, Cooper Lake, Whiskey Lake V, Coffee Lake R, Comet
Lake, Ice Lake, Tiger Lake and Rocket Lake.
Scope of impact:
- Guest/host isolation:
When eIBRS is used for guest/host isolation, the indirect branches
in the VMM may still be predicted with targets corresponding to
direct branches in the guest.
- Intra-mode using cBPF:
cBPF can be used to poison the branch history to exploit ITS.
Realigning the indirect branches and RETs mitigates this attack
vector.
- User/kernel:
With eIBRS enabled user/kernel isolation is *not* impacted by ITS.
- Indirect Branch Prediction Barrier (IBPB):
Due to this bug indirect branches may be predicted with targets
corresponding to direct branches which were executed prior to IBPB.
This will be fixed in the microcode.
Mitigation:
As indirect branches in the first half of cacheline are affected, the
mitigation is to replace those indirect branches with a call to thunk that
is aligned to the second half of the cacheline.
RETs that take prediction from RSB are not affected, but they may be
affected by RSB-underflow condition. So, RETs in the first half of
cacheline are also patched to a return thunk that executes the RET aligned
to second half of cacheline"

I've been looking at a problem where we see increased RPC timeouts in
clients when the nfs_layout_flexfiles dataserver_timeo value is tuned
very low (6s). This is necessary to ensure quick failover to a different
mirror if a server goes down, but it causes a lot more major RPC timeouts.
Ultimately, the problem is server-side however. It's sometimes doesn't
respond to connection attempts. My theory is that the interrupt handler
runs when a connection comes in, the xprt ends up being enqueued, but it
takes a significant amount of time for the nfsd thread to pick it up.
Currently, the svc_xprt_dequeue tracepoint displays "wakeup-us". This is
the time between the wake_up() call, and the thread dequeueing the xprt.
If no thread was woken, or the thread ended up picking up a different
xprt than intended, then this value won't tell us how long the xprt was
waiting.
Add a new xpt_qtime field to struct svc_xprt and set it in
svc_xprt_enqueue(). When the dequeue tracepoint fires, also store the
time that the xprt sat on the queue in total. Display it as "qtime-us".
