Remove support for the "Crypto usage statistics" feature
(CONFIG_CRYPTO_STATS). This feature does not appear to have ever been
used, and it is harmful because it significantly reduces performance and
is a large maintenance burden.
Covering each of these points in detail:
1. Feature is not being used
Since these generic crypto statistics are only readable using netlink,
it's fairly straightforward to look for programs that use them. I'm
unable to find any evidence that any such programs exist. For example,
Debian Code Search returns no hits except the kernel header and kernel
code itself and translations of the kernel header:
https://codesearch.debian.net/search?q=CRYPTOCFGA_STAT&literal=1&perpkg=1
The patch series that added this feature in 2018
(https://lore.kernel.org/linux-crypto/1537351855-16618-1-git-send-email-clabbe@baylibre.com/)
said "The goal is to have an ifconfig for crypto device." This doesn't
appear to have happened.
It's not clear that there is real demand for crypto statistics. Just
because the kernel provides other types of statistics such as I/O and
networking statistics and some people find those useful does not mean
that crypto statistics are useful too.
Further evidence that programs are not using CONFIG_CRYPTO_STATS is that
it was able to be disabled in RHEL and Fedora as a bug fix
(https://gitlab.com/redhat/centos-stream/src/kernel/centos-stream-9/-/merge_requests/2947).
Even further evidence comes from the fact that there are and have been
bugs in how the stats work, but they were never reported. For example,
before Linux v6.7 hash stats were double-counted in most cases.
There has also never been any documentation for this feature, so it
might be hard to use even if someone wanted to.
2. CONFIG_CRYPTO_STATS significantly reduces performance
Enabling CONFIG_CRYPTO_STATS significantly reduces the performance of
the crypto API, even if no program ever retrieves the statistics. This
primarily affects systems with a large number of CPUs. For example,
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/2039576 reported
that Lustre client encryption performance improved from 21.7GB/s to
48.2GB/s by disabling CONFIG_CRYPTO_STATS.
It can be argued that this means that CONFIG_CRYPTO_STATS should be
optimized with per-cpu counters similar to many of the networking
counters. But no one has done this in 5+ years. This is consistent
with the fact that the feature appears to be unused, so there seems to
be little interest in improving it as opposed to just disabling it.
It can be argued that because CONFIG_CRYPTO_STATS is off by default,
performance doesn't matter. But Linux distros tend to error on the side
of enabling options. The option is enabled in Ubuntu and Arch Linux,
and until recently was enabled in RHEL and Fedora (see above). So, even
just having the option available is harmful to users.
3. CONFIG_CRYPTO_STATS is a large maintenance burden
There are over 1000 lines of code associated with CONFIG_CRYPTO_STATS,
spread among 32 files. It significantly complicates much of the
implementation of the crypto API. After the initial submission, many
fixes and refactorings have consumed effort of multiple people to keep
this feature "working". We should be spending this effort elsewhere.

-Wflex-array-member-not-at-end is coming in GCC-14, and we are getting
ready to enable it globally. So, we are deprecating flexible-array
members in the middle of another structure.
There is currently an object (`header`) in `struct nx842_crypto_ctx`
that contains a flexible structure (`struct nx842_crypto_header`):
struct nx842_crypto_ctx {
...
struct nx842_crypto_header header;
struct nx842_crypto_header_group group[NX842_CRYPTO_GROUP_MAX];
...
};
So, in order to avoid ending up with a flexible-array member in the
middle of another struct, we use the `struct_group_tagged()` helper to
separate the flexible array from the rest of the members in the flexible
structure:
struct nx842_crypto_header {
struct_group_tagged(nx842_crypto_header_hdr, hdr,
... the rest of the members
);
struct nx842_crypto_header_group group[];
} __packed;
With the change described above, we can now declare an object of the
type of the tagged struct, without embedding the flexible array in the
middle of another struct:
struct nx842_crypto_ctx {
...
struct nx842_crypto_header_hdr header;
struct nx842_crypto_header_group group[NX842_CRYPTO_GROUP_MAX];
...
} __packed;
We also use `container_of()` whenever we need to retrieve a pointer to
the flexible structure, through which we can access the flexible
array if needed.
So, with these changes, fix the following warning:
In file included from drivers/crypto/nx/nx-842.c:55:
drivers/crypto/nx/nx-842.h:174:36: warning: structure containing a flexible array member is not at the end of another structure [-Wflex-array-member-not-at-end]

Currently, the wq_stats output also includes the global stats, while
the individual global stats are also available as separate debugfs
files. Since these are all read-only, there's really no reason to
have them as separate files, especially since we already display them
as global stats in the wq_stats. It makes more sense to just add a
separate global_stats file to display those, and remove them from the
wq_stats, as well as removing the individual stats files.

Add logic to implement the interface for live migration defined in
qat/qat_mig_dev.h. This is specific for QAT GEN4 Virtual Functions
(VFs).
This introduces a migration data manager which is used to handle the
device state during migration. The manager ensures that the device state
is stored in a format that can be restored in the destination node.
The VF state is organized into a hierarchical structure that includes a
preamble, a general state section, a MISC bar section and an ETR bar
section. The latter contains the state of the 4 ring pairs contained on
a VF. Here is a graphical representation of the state:
preamble | general state section | leaf state
| MISC bar state section| leaf state
| ETR bar state section | bank0 state section | leaf state
| bank1 state section | leaf state
| bank2 state section | leaf state
| bank3 state section | leaf state
In addition to the implementation of the qat_migdev_ops interface and
the state manager framework, add a mutex in pfvf to avoid pf2vf messages
during migration.

Pull x86 fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
- Ensure that the encryption mask at boot is properly propagated on
5-level page tables, otherwise the PGD entry is incorrectly set to
non-encrypted, which causes system crashes during boot.
- Undo the deferred 5-level page table setup as it cannot work with
memory encryption enabled.
- Prevent inconsistent XFD state on CPU hotplug, where the MSR is reset
to the default value but the cached variable is not, so subsequent
comparisons might yield the wrong result and as a consequence the
result prevents updating the MSR.
- Register the local APIC address only once in the MPPARSE enumeration
to prevent triggering the related WARN_ONs() in the APIC and topology
code.
- Handle the case where no APIC is found gracefully by registering a
fake APIC in the topology code. That makes all related topology
functions work correctly and does not affect the actual APIC driver
code at all.
- Don't evaluate logical IDs during early boot as the local APIC IDs
are not yet enumerated and the invoked function returns an error
code. Nothing requires the logical IDs before the final CPUID
enumeration takes place, which happens after the enumeration.
- Cure the fallout of the per CPU rework on UP which misplaced the
copying of boot_cpu_data to per CPU data so that the final update to
boot_cpu_data got lost which caused inconsistent state and boot
crashes.
- Use copy_from_kernel_nofault() in the kprobes setup as there is no

Clearing BSS should only be done once, at the very beginning.
efi_pe_entry() is the entrypoint from the firmware, which may not clear
BSS and so it is done explicitly. However, efi_pe_entry() is also used
as an entrypoint by the mixed mode startup code, in which case BSS will
already have been cleared, and doing it again at this point will corrupt
global variables holding the firmware's GDT/IDT and segment selectors.
So make the memset() conditional on whether the EFI stub is running in
native mode.

Normally, the EFI stub calls into the EFI boot services using the stack
that was live when the stub was entered. According to the UEFI spec,
this stack needs to be at least 128k in size - this might seem large but
all asynchronous processing and event handling in EFI runs from the same
stack and so quite a lot of space may be used in practice.
In mixed mode, the situation is a bit different: the bootloader calls
the 32-bit EFI stub entry point, which calls the decompressor's 32-bit
entry point, where the boot stack is set up, using a fixed allocation
of 16k. This stack is still in use when the EFI stub is started in
64-bit mode, and so all calls back into the EFI firmware will be using
the decompressor's limited boot stack.
Due to the placement of the boot stack right after the boot heap, any
stack overruns have gone unnoticed. However, commit
5c4feadb0011983b ("x86/decompressor: Move global symbol references to C code")
moved the definition of the boot heap into C code, and now the boot
stack is placed right at the base of BSS, where any overruns will
corrupt the end of the .data section.
While it would be possible to work around this by increasing the size of
the boot stack, doing so would affect all x86 systems, and mixed mode
systems are a tiny (and shrinking) fraction of the x86 installed base.
So instead, record the firmware stack pointer value when entering from
the 32-bit firmware, and switch to this stack every time a EFI boot
service call is made.

Commit 63bed9660420 ("x86/startup_64: Defer assignment of 5-level paging
global variables") moved assignment of 5-level global variables to later
in the boot in order to avoid having to use RIP relative addressing in
order to set them. However, when running with 5-level paging and SME
active (mem_encrypt=on), the variables are needed as part of the page
table setup needed to encrypt the kernel (using pgd_none(), p4d_offset(),
etc.). Since the variables haven't been set, the page table manipulation
is done as if 4-level paging is active, causing the system to crash on
boot.
While only a subset of the assignments that were moved need to be set
early, move all of the assignments back into check_la57_support() so that
these assignments aren't spread between two locations. Instead of just
reverting the fix, this uses the new RIP_REL_REF() macro when assigning
the variables.

When running with 5-level page tables, the kernel mapping PGD entry is
updated to point to the P4D table. The assignment uses _PAGE_TABLE_NOENC,
which, when SME is active (mem_encrypt=on), results in a page table
entry without the encryption mask set, causing the system to crash on
boot.
Change the assignment to use _PAGE_TABLE instead of _PAGE_TABLE_NOENC so
that the encryption mask is set for the PGD entry.

Commit 672365477ae8 ("x86/fpu: Update XFD state where required") and
commit 8bf26758ca96 ("x86/fpu: Add XFD state to fpstate") introduced a
per CPU variable xfd_state to keep the MSR_IA32_XFD value cached, in
order to avoid unnecessary writes to the MSR.
On CPU hotplug MSR_IA32_XFD is reset to the init_fpstate.xfd, which
wipes out any stale state. But the per CPU cached xfd value is not
reset, which brings them out of sync.
As a consequence a subsequent xfd_update_state() might fail to update
the MSR which in turn can result in XRSTOR raising a #NM in kernel
space, which crashes the kernel.
To fix this, introduce xfd_set_state() to write xfd_state together
with MSR_IA32_XFD, and use it in all places that set MSR_IA32_XFD.

Pull timer fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"Two regression fixes for the timer and timer migration code:
- Prevent endless timer requeuing which is caused by two CPUs racing
out of idle. This happens when the last CPU goes idle and therefore
has to ensure to expire the pending global timers and some other
CPU come out of idle at the same time and the other CPU wins the
race and expires the global queue. This causes the last CPU to
chase ghost timers forever and reprogramming it's clockevent device
endlessly.
Cure this by re-evaluating the wakeup time unconditionally.
- The split into local (pinned) and global timers in the timer wheel
caused a regression for NOHZ full as it broke the idle tracking of
global timers. On NOHZ full this prevents an self IPI being sent
which in turn causes the timer to be not programmed and not being
expired on time.
Restore the idle tracking for the global timer base so that the
self IPI condition for NOHZ full is working correctly again"

Pull core entry fix from Thomas Gleixner:
"A single fix for the generic entry code:
The trace_sys_enter() tracepoint can modify the syscall number via
kprobes or BPF in pt_regs, but that requires that the syscall number
is re-evaluted from pt_regs after the tracepoint.
A seccomp fix in that area removed the re-evaluation so the change
does not take effect as the code just uses the locally cached number.
Restore the original behaviour by re-evaluating the syscall number
after the tracepoint"

The APIC address is registered twice. First during the early detection and
afterwards when actually scanning the table for APIC IDs. The APIC and
topology core warn about the second attempt.
Restrict it to the early detection call.

If there is no local APIC enumerated and registered then the topology
bitmaps are empty. Therefore, topology_init_possible_cpus() will die with
a division by zero exception.
Prevent this by registering a fake APIC id to populate the topology
bitmap. This also allows to use all topology query interfaces
unconditionally. It does not affect the actual APIC code because either
the local APIC address was not registered or no local APIC could be
detected.

The local APICs have not yet been enumerated so the logical ID evaluation
from the topology bitmaps does not work and would return an error code.
Skip the evaluation during the early boot CPUID evaluation and only apply
it on the final run.

The boot sequence evaluates CPUID information twice:
1) During early boot
2) When finalizing the early setup right before
mitigations are selected and alternatives are patched.
In both cases the evaluation is stored in boot_cpu_data, but on UP the
copying of boot_cpu_data to the per CPU info of the boot CPU happens
between #1 and #2. So any update which happens in #2 is never propagated to
the per CPU info instance.
Consolidate the whole logic and copy boot_cpu_data right before applying
alternatives as that's the point where boot_cpu_data is in it's final
state and not supposed to change anymore.
This also removes the voodoo mb() from smp_prepare_cpus_common() which
had absolutely no purpose.

The norm should be flexible array structures with __counted_by
annotations, so DEFINE_FLEX() is updated to expect that. Rename
the non-annotated version to DEFINE_RAW_FLEX(), and update the
few existing users. Additionally add selftests for the macros.

Pull more SCSI updates from James Bottomley:
"The vfs has long had a write lifetime hint mechanism that gives the
expected longevity on storage of the data being written. f2fs was the
original consumer of this and used the hint for flash data placement
(mostly to avoid write amplification by placing objects with similar
lifetimes in the same erase block).
More recently the SCSI based UFS (Universal Flash Storage) drivers
have wanted to take advantage of this as well, for the same reasons as
f2fs, necessitating plumbing the write hints through the block layer
and then adding it to the SCSI core.
The vfs write_hints already taken plumbs this as far as block and this
completes the SCSI core enabling based on a recently agreed reuse of
the old write command group number. The additions to the scsi_debug
driver are for emulating this property so we can run tests on it in
the absence of an actual UFS device"
