Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- "Add folio_mk_pte()" from Matthew Wilcox simplifies the act of
creating a pte which addresses the first page in a folio and reduces
the amount of plumbing which architecture must implement to provide
this.
- "Misc folio patches for 6.16" from Matthew Wilcox is a shower of
largely unrelated folio infrastructure changes which clean things up
and better prepare us for future work.
- "memory,x86,acpi: hotplug memory alignment advisement" from Gregory
Price adds early-init code to prevent x86 from leaving physical
memory unused when physical address regions are not aligned to memory
block size.
- "mm/compaction: allow more aggressive proactive compaction" from
Michal Clapinski provides some tuning of the (sadly, hard-coded (more
sadly, not auto-tuned)) thresholds for our invokation of proactive
compaction. In a simple test case, the reduction of a guest VM's
memory consumption was dramatic.
- "Minor cleanups and improvements to swap freeing code" from Kemeng
Shi provides some code cleaups and a small efficiency improvement to
this part of our swap handling code.
- "ptrace: introduce PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO API" from Dmitry Levin
adds the ability for a ptracer to modify syscalls arguments. At this
time we can alter only "system call information that are used by
strace system call tampering, namely, syscall number, syscall
arguments, and syscall return value.
This series should have been incorporated into mm.git's "non-MM"
branch, but I goofed.
- "fs/proc: extend the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl to report guard regions" from
Andrei Vagin extends the info returned by the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl
against /proc/pid/pagemap. This permits CRIU to more efficiently get
at the info about guard regions.
- "Fix parameter passed to page_mapcount_is_type()" from Gavin Shan
implements that fix. No runtime effect is expected because
validate_page_before_insert() happens to fix up this error.
- "kernel/events/uprobes: uprobe_write_opcode() rewrite" from David
Hildenbrand basically brings uprobe text poking into the current
decade. Remove a bunch of hand-rolled implementation in favor of
using more current facilities.
- "mm/ptdump: Drop assumption that pxd_val() is u64" from Anshuman
Khandual provides enhancements and generalizations to the pte dumping
code. This might be needed when 128-bit Page Table Descriptors are
enabled for ARM.
- "Always call constructor for kernel page tables" from Kevin Brodsky
ensures that the ctor/dtor is always called for kernel pgtables, as
it already is for user pgtables.
This permits the addition of more functionality such as "insert hooks
to protect page tables". This change does result in various
architectures performing unnecesary work, but this is fixed up where
it is anticipated to occur.
- "Rust support for mm_struct, vm_area_struct, and mmap" from Alice
Ryhl adds plumbing to permit Rust access to core MM structures.
- "fix incorrectly disallowed anonymous VMA merges" from Lorenzo
Stoakes takes advantage of some VMA merging opportunities which we've
been missing for 15 years.
- "mm/madvise: batch tlb flushes for MADV_DONTNEED and MADV_FREE" from
SeongJae Park optimizes process_madvise()'s TLB flushing.
Instead of flushing each address range in the provided iovec, we
batch the flushing across all the iovec entries. The syscall's cost
was approximately halved with a microbenchmark which was designed to
load this particular operation.
- "Track node vacancy to reduce worst case allocation counts" from
Sidhartha Kumar makes the maple tree smarter about its node
preallocation.
stress-ng mmap performance increased by single-digit percentages and
the amount of unnecessarily preallocated memory was dramaticelly
reduced.
- "mm/gup: Minor fix, cleanup and improvements" from Baoquan He removes
a few unnecessary things which Baoquan noted when reading the code.
- ""Enhance sysfs handling for memory hotplug in weighted interleave"
from Rakie Kim "enhances the weighted interleave policy in the memory
management subsystem by improving sysfs handling, fixing memory
leaks, and introducing dynamic sysfs updates for memory hotplug
support". Fixes things on error paths which we are unlikely to hit.
- "mm/damon: auto-tune DAMOS for NUMA setups including tiered memory"
from SeongJae Park introduces new DAMOS quota goal metrics which
eliminate the manual tuning which is required when utilizing DAMON
for memory tiering.
- "mm/vmalloc.c: code cleanup and improvements" from Baoquan He
provides cleanups and small efficiency improvements which Baoquan
found via code inspection.
- "vmscan: enforce mems_effective during demotion" from Gregory Price
changes reclaim to respect cpuset.mems_effective during demotion when
possible. because presently, reclaim explicitly ignores
cpuset.mems_effective when demoting, which may cause the cpuset
settings to violated.
This is useful for isolating workloads on a multi-tenant system from
certain classes of memory more consistently.
- "Clean up split_huge_pmd_locked() and remove unnecessary folio
pointers" from Gavin Guo provides minor cleanups and efficiency gains
in in the huge page splitting and migrating code.
- "Use kmem_cache for memcg alloc" from Huan Yang creates a slab cache
for `struct mem_cgroup', yielding improved memory utilization.
- "add max arg to swappiness in memory.reclaim and lru_gen" from
Zhongkun He adds a new "max" argument to the "swappiness=" argument
for memory.reclaim MGLRU's lru_gen.
This directs proactive reclaim to reclaim from only anon folios
rather than file-backed folios.
- "kexec: introduce Kexec HandOver (KHO)" from Mike Rapoport is the
first step on the path to permitting the kernel to maintain existing
VMs while replacing the host kernel via file-based kexec. At this
time only memblock's reserve_mem is preserved.
- "mm: Introduce for_each_valid_pfn()" from David Woodhouse provides
and uses a smarter way of looping over a pfn range. By skipping
ranges of invalid pfns.
- "sched/numa: Skip VMA scanning on memory pinned to one NUMA node via
cpuset.mems" from Libo Chen removes a lot of pointless VMA scanning
when a task is pinned a single NUMA mode.
Dramatic performance benefits were seen in some real world cases.
- "JFS: Implement migrate_folio for jfs_metapage_aops" from Shivank
Garg addresses a warning which occurs during memory compaction when
using JFS.
- "move all VMA allocation, freeing and duplication logic to mm" from
Lorenzo Stoakes moves some VMA code from kernel/fork.c into the more
appropriate mm/vma.c.
- "mm, swap: clean up swap cache mapping helper" from Kairui Song
provides code consolidation and cleanups related to the folio_index()
function.
- "mm/gup: Cleanup memfd_pin_folios()" from Vishal Moola does that.
- "memcg: Fix test_memcg_min/low test failures" from Waiman Long
addresses some bogus failures which are being reported by the
test_memcontrol selftest.
- "eliminate mmap() retry merge, add .mmap_prepare hook" from Lorenzo
Stoakes commences the deprecation of file_operations.mmap() in favor
of the new file_operations.mmap_prepare().
The latter is more restrictive and prevents drivers from messing with
things in ways which, amongst other problems, may defeat VMA merging.
- "memcg: decouple memcg and objcg stocks"" from Shakeel Butt decouples
the per-cpu memcg charge cache from the objcg's one.
This is a step along the way to making memcg and objcg charging
NMI-safe, which is a BPF requirement.
- "mm/damon: minor fixups and improvements for code, tests, and
documents" from SeongJae Park is yet another batch of miscellaneous
DAMON changes. Fix and improve minor problems in code, tests and
documents.
- "memcg: make memcg stats irq safe" from Shakeel Butt converts memcg
stats to be irq safe. Another step along the way to making memcg
charging and stats updates NMI-safe, a BPF requirement.
- "Let unmap_hugepage_range() and several related functions take folio
instead of page" from Fan Ni provides folio conversions in the
hugetlb code.

Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"As far as x86 goes this pull request "only" includes TDX host support.
Quotes are appropriate because (at 6k lines and 100+ commits) it is
much bigger than the rest, which will come later this week and
consists mostly of bugfixes and selftests. s390 changes will also come
in the second batch.
ARM:
- Add large stage-2 mapping (THP) support for non-protected guests
when pKVM is enabled, clawing back some performance.
- Enable nested virtualisation support on systems that support it,
though it is disabled by default.
- Add UBSAN support to the standalone EL2 object used in nVHE/hVHE
and protected modes.
- Large rework of the way KVM tracks architecture features and links
them with the effects of control bits. While this has no functional
impact, it ensures correctness of emulation (the data is
automatically extracted from the published JSON files), and helps
dealing with the evolution of the architecture.
- Significant changes to the way pKVM tracks ownership of pages,
avoiding page table walks by storing the state in the hypervisor's
vmemmap. This in turn enables the THP support described above.
- New selftest checking the pKVM ownership transition rules
- Fixes for FEAT_MTE_ASYNC being accidentally advertised to guests
even if the host didn't have it.
- Fixes for the address translation emulation, which happened to be
rather buggy in some specific contexts.
- Fixes for the PMU emulation in NV contexts, decoupling PMCR_EL0.N
from the number of counters exposed to a guest and addressing a
number of issues in the process.
- Add a new selftest for the SVE host state being corrupted by a
guest.
- Keep HCR_EL2.xMO set at all times for systems running with the
kernel at EL2, ensuring that the window for interrupts is slightly
bigger, and avoiding a pretty bad erratum on the AmpereOne HW.
- Add workaround for AmpereOne's erratum AC04_CPU_23, which suffers
from a pretty bad case of TLB corruption unless accesses to HCR_EL2
are heavily synchronised.
- Add a per-VM, per-ITS debugfs entry to dump the state of the ITS
tables in a human-friendly fashion.
- and the usual random cleanups.
LoongArch:
- Don't flush tlb if the host supports hardware page table walks.
- Add KVM selftests support.
RISC-V:
- Add vector registers to get-reg-list selftest
- VCPU reset related improvements
- Remove scounteren initialization from VCPU reset
- Support VCPU reset from userspace using set_mpstate() ioctl
x86:
- Initial support for TDX in KVM.
This finally makes it possible to use the TDX module to run
confidential guests on Intel processors. This is quite a large
series, including support for private page tables (managed by the
TDX module and mirrored in KVM for efficiency), forwarding some
TDVMCALLs to userspace, and handling several special VM exits from
the TDX module.
This has been in the works for literally years and it's not really
possible to describe everything here, so I'll defer to the various
merge commits up to and including commit 7bcf7246c42a ('Merge
branch 'kvm-tdx-finish-initial' into HEAD')"

Add a toggleable VM capability to reset the VCPU from userspace by
setting MP_STATE_INIT_RECEIVED through IOCTL.
Reset through a mp_state to avoid adding a new IOCTL.
Do not reset on a transition from STOPPED to RUNNABLE, because it's
better to avoid side effects that would complicate userspace adoption.
The MP_STATE_INIT_RECEIVED is not a permanent mp_state -- IOCTL resets
the VCPU while preserving the original mp_state -- because we wouldn't
gain much from having a new state it in the rest of KVM, but it's a very
non-standard use of the IOCTL.

The SBI reset state has only two variables -- pc and a1.
The rest is known, so keep only the necessary information.
The reset structures make sense if we want userspace to control the
reset state (which we do), but I'd still remove them now and reintroduce
with the userspace interface later -- we could probably have just a
single reset state per VM, instead of a reset state for each VCPU.

Similar to syscall_set_arguments() that complements
syscall_get_arguments(), introduce syscall_set_nr() that complements
syscall_get_nr().
syscall_set_nr() is going to be needed along with syscall_set_arguments()
on all HAVE_ARCH_TRACEHOOK architectures to implement
PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO API.

This function was unified into a single function in commit ab9164dae273
("riscv: entry: Consolidate ret_from_kernel_thread into ret_from_fork").
However that imposed a performance degradation.
Partially reverting this commit to have ret_from_fork() split again,
results in a 1% increase on the number of times fork is able to be called
per second.

1. The arch_kgdb_breakpoint() function defines the kgdb_compiled_break
symbol using inline assembly.
There's a potential issue where the compiler might inline
arch_kgdb_breakpoint(), which would then define the kgdb_compiled_break
symbol multiple times, leading to fail to link vmlinux.o.
This isn't merely a potential compilation problem. The intent here
is to determine the global symbol address of kgdb_compiled_break,
and if this function is inlined multiple times, it would logically
be a grave error.
2. Remove ".option norvc/.option rvc" to fix a bug that the C extension
would unconditionally enable even if the kernel is being built with
CONFIG_RISCV_ISA_C=n.

When building with CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE=y and W=1, there is a warning

| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
The fortified memcpy() routine enforces that the source is not overread
and the destination is not overwritten if the size of either field and
the size of the copy are known at compile time. The memcpy() in
syscall_get_arguments() intentionally overreads from a1 to a5 in
'struct pt_regs' but this is bigger than the size of a1.
Normally, this could be solved by wrapping a1 through a5 with
struct_group() but there was already a struct_group() applied to these
members in commit bba547810c66 ("riscv: tracing: Fix
__write_overflow_field in ftrace_partial_regs()").
Just avoid memcpy() altogether and write the copying of args from regs
manually, which clears up the warning at the expense of three extra
lines of code.

We need to provide all six forms of the alternative macros
(ALTERNATIVE, ALTERNATIVE_2, _ALTERNATIVE_CFG, _ALTERNATIVE_CFG_2,
__ALTERNATIVE_CFG, __ALTERNATIVE_CFG_2) for all four cases derived
from the two ifdefs (RISCV_ALTERNATIVE, __ASSEMBLY__) in order to
ensure all configs can compile. Define this missing ones and ensure
all are defined to consume all parameters passed.

To support fast gup, the commit 69be3fb111e7 ("riscv: enable
MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE for SMP && MMU") did the following:
1) use tlb_remove_page_ptdesc() for those platforms which use IPI to
perform TLB shootdown
2) use tlb_remove_ptdesc() for those platforms which use SBI to perform
TLB shootdown
The tlb_remove_page_ptdesc() is the wrapper of the tlb_remove_page(). By
design, the tlb_remove_page() should be used to remove a normal page from
a page table entry, and should not be used for page table pages.
The tlb_remove_ptdesc() is the wrapper of the tlb_remove_table(), which is
designed specifically for freeing page table pages. If the
CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_TABLE_FREE is enabled, the tlb_remove_table() will use
semi RCU to free page table pages, that is:
- batch table freeing: asynchronous free by RCU
- single table freeing: IPI + synchronous free
If the CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_TABLE_FREE is disabled, the tlb_remove_table()
will fall back to pagetable_dtor() + tlb_remove_page().
For case 1), since we need to perform TLB shootdown before freeing the
page table page, the local_irq_save() in fast gup can block the freeing
and protect the fast gup page walker. Therefore we can ensure safety by
just using tlb_remove_page_ptdesc(). In addition, we can also the
tlb_remove_ptdesc()/tlb_remove_table() to achieve it, and it doesn't
matter whether CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE is selected. And in
theory, the performance of freeing pages asynchronously via RCU will not
be lower than synchronous free.
For case 2), since local_irq_save() only disable S-privilege IPI irq but
not M-privilege's, which is used by the SBI implementation to perform TLB
shootdown, so we must select CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE and use
tlb_remove_ptdesc() to ensure safety. The riscv selects this config for
SMP && MMU, the CONFIG_RISCV_SBI is dependent on MMU. Therefore, only the
UP system may have the situation where CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE is
disabled but CONFIG_RISCV_SBI is enabled. But there is no freeing vs fast
gup race in the UP system.
So, in summary, we can use tlb_remove_ptdesc() to support fast gup in all
cases, and this interface is specifically designed for page table pages.
So let's use it unconditionally.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- The series "Enable strict percpu address space checks" from Uros
Bizjak uses x86 named address space qualifiers to provide
compile-time checking of percpu area accesses.
This has caused a small amount of fallout - two or three issues were
reported. In all cases the calling code was found to be incorrect.
- The series "Some cleanup for memcg" from Chen Ridong implements some
relatively monir cleanups for the memcontrol code.
- The series "mm: fixes for device-exclusive entries (hmm)" from David
Hildenbrand fixes a boatload of issues which David found then using
device-exclusive PTE entries when THP is enabled. More work is
needed, but this makes thins better - our own HMM selftests now
succeed.
- The series "mm: zswap: remove z3fold and zbud" from Yosry Ahmed
remove the z3fold and zbud implementations. They have been deprecated
for half a year and nobody has complained.
- The series "mm: further simplify VMA merge operation" from Lorenzo
Stoakes implements numerous simplifications in this area. No runtime
effects are anticipated.
- The series "mm/madvise: remove redundant mmap_lock operations from
process_madvise()" from SeongJae Park rationalizes the locking in the
madvise() implementation. Performance gains of 20-25% were observed
in one MADV_DONTNEED microbenchmark.
- The series "Tiny cleanup and improvements about SWAP code" from
Baoquan He contains a number of touchups to issues which Baoquan
noticed when working on the swap code.
- The series "mm: kmemleak: Usability improvements" from Catalin
Marinas implements a couple of improvements to the kmemleak
user-visible output.
- The series "mm/damon/paddr: fix large folios access and schemes
handling" from Usama Arif provides a couple of fixes for DAMON's
handling of large folios.
- The series "mm/damon/core: fix wrong and/or useless damos_walk()
behaviors" from SeongJae Park fixes a few issues with the accuracy of
kdamond's walking of DAMON regions.
- The series "expose mapping wrprotect, fix fb_defio use" from Lorenzo
Stoakes changes the interaction between framebuffer deferred-io and
core MM. No functional changes are anticipated - this is preparatory
work for the future removal of page structure fields.
- The series "mm/damon: add support for hugepage_size DAMOS filter"
from Usama Arif adds a DAMOS filter which permits the filtering by
huge page sizes.
- The series "mm: permit guard regions for file-backed/shmem mappings"
from Lorenzo Stoakes extends the guard region feature from its
present "anon mappings only" state. The feature now covers shmem and
file-backed mappings.
- The series "mm: batched unmap lazyfree large folios during
reclamation" from Barry Song cleans up and speeds up the unmapping
for pte-mapped large folios.
- The series "reimplement per-vma lock as a refcount" from Suren
Baghdasaryan puts the vm_lock back into the vma. Our reasons for
pulling it out were largely bogus and that change made the code more
messy. This patchset provides small (0-10%) improvements on one
microbenchmark.
- The series "Docs/mm/damon: misc DAMOS filters documentation fixes and
improves" from SeongJae Park does some maintenance work on the DAMON
docs.
- The series "hugetlb/CMA improvements for large systems" from Frank
van der Linden addresses a pile of issues which have been observed
when using CMA on large machines.
- The series "mm/damon: introduce DAMOS filter type for unmapped pages"
from SeongJae Park enables users of DMAON/DAMOS to filter my the
page's mapped/unmapped status.
- The series "zsmalloc/zram: there be preemption" from Sergey
Senozhatsky teaches zram to run its compression and decompression
operations preemptibly.
- The series "selftests/mm: Some cleanups from trying to run them" from
Brendan Jackman fixes a pile of unrelated issues which Brendan
encountered while runnimg our selftests.
- The series "fs/proc/task_mmu: add guard region bit to pagemap" from
Lorenzo Stoakes permits userspace to use /proc/pid/pagemap to
determine whether a particular page is a guard page.
- The series "mm, swap: remove swap slot cache" from Kairui Song
removes the swap slot cache from the allocation path - it simply
wasn't being effective.
- The series "mm: cleanups for device-exclusive entries (hmm)" from
David Hildenbrand implements a number of unrelated cleanups in this
code.
- The series "mm: Rework generic PTDUMP configs" from Anshuman Khandual
implements a number of preparatoty cleanups to the GENERIC_PTDUMP
Kconfig logic.
- The series "mm/damon: auto-tune aggregation interval" from SeongJae
Park implements a feedback-driven automatic tuning feature for
DAMON's aggregation interval tuning.
- The series "Fix lazy mmu mode" from Ryan Roberts fixes some issues in
powerpc, sparc and x86 lazy MMU implementations. Ryan did this in
preparation for implementing lazy mmu mode for arm64 to optimize
vmalloc.
- The series "mm/page_alloc: Some clarifications for migratetype
fallback" from Brendan Jackman reworks some commentary to make the
code easier to follow.
- The series "page_counter cleanup and size reduction" from Shakeel
Butt cleans up the page_counter code and fixes a size increase which
we accidentally added late last year.
- The series "Add a command line option that enables control of how
many threads should be used to allocate huge pages" from Thomas
Prescher does that. It allows the careful operator to significantly
reduce boot time by tuning the parallalization of huge page
initialization.
- The series "Fix calculations in trace_balance_dirty_pages() for cgwb"
from Tang Yizhou fixes the tracing output from the dirty page
balancing code.
- The series "mm/damon: make allow filters after reject filters useful
and intuitive" from SeongJae Park improves the handling of allow and
reject filters. Behaviour is made more consistent and the documention
is updated accordingly.
- The series "Switch zswap to object read/write APIs" from Yosry Ahmed
updates zswap to the new object read/write APIs and thus permits the
removal of some legacy code from zpool and zsmalloc.
- The series "Some trivial cleanups for shmem" from Baolin Wang does as
it claims.
- The series "fs/dax: Fix ZONE_DEVICE page reference counts" from
Alistair Popple regularizes the weird ZONE_DEVICE page refcount
handling in DAX, permittig the removal of a number of special-case
checks.
- The series "refactor mremap and fix bug" from Lorenzo Stoakes is a
preparatoty refactoring and cleanup of the mremap() code.

- The series "mm/damon: add sysfs dirs for managing DAMOS filters based
on handling layers" from SeongJae Park adds a couple of new sysfs
directories to ease the management of DAMON/DAMOS filters.
- The series "arch, mm: reduce code duplication in mem_init()" from
Mike Rapoport consolidates many per-arch implementations of
mem_init() into code generic code, where that is practical.

damon_call()" from SeongJae Park continues the cleaning up of sysfs
access to DAMON internal data.

Capitulino reworks the page_ext initialization to fix a boot-time
crash which was observed with an unusual combination of compile and
cmdline options.
- The series "Buddy allocator like (or non-uniform) folio split" from
Zi Yan reworks the code to split a folio into smaller folios. The
main benefit is lessened memory consumption: fewer post-split folios
are generated.
- The series "Minimize xa_node allocation during xarry split" from Zi
Yan reduces the number of xarray xa_nodes which are generated during
an xarray split.
- The series "drivers/base/memory: Two cleanups" from Gavin Shan
performs some maintenance work on the drivers/base/memory code.

Conor Dooley <conor@kernel.org> says:
From: Conor Dooley <conor.dooley@microchip.com>
Yo,
This series is partly leveraging Clement's work adding a validate
callback in the extension detection code so that things like checking
for whether a vector crypto extension is usable can be done like:
has_extension(<vector crypto>)
rather than
has_vector() && has_extension(<vector crypto>)
which Eric pointed out was a poor design some months ago.
The rest of this is adding some requirements to the bindings that
prevent combinations of extensions disallowed by the ISA.
There's a bunch of over-long lines in here, but I thought that the
over-long lines were clearer than breaking them up.
Cheers,
Conor.

.option arch clobbers .option norvc. Prevent gas from emitting
compressed instructions in the runtime const alternative blocks by
setting .option norvc after .option arch. This issue starts appearing on
gcc 15, which adds zca to the march.

Samuel Holland <samuel.holland@sifive.com> says:
Currently, RISC-V NOMMU kernels are linked at CONFIG_PAGE_OFFSET, and
since they are not relocatable, must be loaded at this address as well.
CONFIG_PAGE_OFFSET is not a user-visible Kconfig option, so its value is
not obvious, and users must patch the kernel source if they want to load
it at a different address.
Make NOMMU kernels more portable by making them relocatable by default.
This allows a single kernel binary to work when loaded at any address.

The current definition of CONFIG_PAGE_OFFSET is problematic for a couple
of reasons:
1) The value is misleading for normal 64-bit kernels, where it is
overridden at runtime if Sv48 or Sv39 is chosen. This is especially
the case for XIP kernels, which always use Sv39.
2) The option is not user-visible, but for NOMMU kernels it must be a
valid RAM address, and for !RELOCATABLE it must additionally be the
exact address where the kernel is loaded.
Fix both of these by removing the option.
1) For MMU kernels, drop the indirection through Kconfig. Additionally,
for XIP, drop the indirection through kernel_map.
2) For NOMMU kernels, use the user-visible physical RAM base if
provided. Otherwise, force the kernel to be relocatable.

Move relocate_kernel() out of the CONFIG_MMU block so it can be called
from the NOMMU version of setup_vm(). Set some offsets in kernel_map so
relocate_kernel() does not need to be modified. Relocatable NOMMU
kernels can be loaded to any physical memory address; they no longer
depend on CONFIG_PAGE_OFFSET.

NOMMU kernels currently cannot access memory below the kernel link
address. Remove this restriction by setting PAGE_OFFSET to the actual
start of RAM, as determined from the devicetree. The kernel link address
must be a constant, so keep using CONFIG_PAGE_OFFSET for that purpose.

Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"ARM:
- Nested virtualization support for VGICv3, giving the nested
hypervisor control of the VGIC hardware when running an L2 VM
- Removal of 'late' nested virtualization feature register masking,
making the supported feature set directly visible to userspace
- Support for emulating FEAT_PMUv3 on Apple silicon, taking advantage
of an IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED trap that covers all PMUv3 registers
- Paravirtual interface for discovering the set of CPU
implementations where a VM may run, addressing a longstanding issue
of guest CPU errata awareness in big-little systems and
cross-implementation VM migration
- Userspace control of the registers responsible for identifying a
particular CPU implementation (MIDR_EL1, REVIDR_EL1, AIDR_EL1),
allowing VMs to be migrated cross-implementation
- pKVM updates, including support for tracking stage-2 page table
allocations in the protected hypervisor in the 'SecPageTable' stat
- Fixes to vPMU, ensuring that userspace updates to the vPMU after
KVM_RUN are reflected into the backing perf events
LoongArch:
- Remove unnecessary header include path
- Assume constant PGD during VM context switch
- Add perf events support for guest VM
RISC-V:
- Disable the kernel perf counter during configure
- KVM selftests improvements for PMU
- Fix warning at the time of KVM module removal
x86:
- Add support for aging of SPTEs without holding mmu_lock.
Not taking mmu_lock allows multiple aging actions to run in
parallel, and more importantly avoids stalling vCPUs. This includes
an implementation of per-rmap-entry locking; aging the gfn is done
with only a per-rmap single-bin spinlock taken, whereas locking an
rmap for write requires taking both the per-rmap spinlock and the
mmu_lock.
Note that this decreases slightly the accuracy of accessed-page
information, because changes to the SPTE outside aging might not
use atomic operations even if they could race against a clear of
the Accessed bit.
This is deliberate because KVM and mm/ tolerate false
positives/negatives for accessed information, and testing has shown
that reducing the latency of aging is far more beneficial to
overall system performance than providing "perfect" young/old
information.
- Defer runtime CPUID updates until KVM emulates a CPUID instruction,
to coalesce updates when multiple pieces of vCPU state are
changing, e.g. as part of a nested transition
- Fix a variety of nested emulation bugs, and add VMX support for
synthesizing nested VM-Exit on interception (instead of injecting
#UD into L2)
- Drop "support" for async page faults for protected guests that do
not set SEND_ALWAYS (i.e. that only want async page faults at CPL3)
- Bring a bit of sanity to x86's VM teardown code, which has
accumulated a lot of cruft over the years. Particularly, destroy
vCPUs before the MMU, despite the latter being a VM-wide operation
- Add common secure TSC infrastructure for use within SNP and in the
future TDX
- Block KVM_CAP_SYNC_REGS if guest state is protected. It does not
make sense to use the capability if the relevant registers are not
available for reading or writing
- Don't take kvm->lock when iterating over vCPUs in the suspend
notifier to fix a largely theoretical deadlock
- Use the vCPU's actual Xen PV clock information when starting the
Xen timer, as the cached state in arch.hv_clock can be stale/bogus
- Fix a bug where KVM could bleed PVCLOCK_GUEST_STOPPED across
different PV clocks; restrict PVCLOCK_GUEST_STOPPED to kvmclock, as
KVM's suspend notifier only accounts for kvmclock, and there's no
evidence that the flag is actually supported by Xen guests
- Clean up the per-vCPU "cache" of its reference pvclock, and instead
only track the vCPU's TSC scaling (multipler+shift) metadata (which
is moderately expensive to compute, and rarely changes for modern
setups)
- Don't write to the Xen hypercall page on MSR writes that are
initiated by the host (userspace or KVM) to fix a class of bugs
where KVM can write to guest memory at unexpected times, e.g.
during vCPU creation if userspace has set the Xen hypercall MSR
index to collide with an MSR that KVM emulates
- Restrict the Xen hypercall MSR index to the unofficial synthetic
range to reduce the set of possible collisions with MSRs that are
emulated by KVM (collisions can still happen as KVM emulates
Hyper-V MSRs, which also reside in the synthetic range)
- Clean up and optimize KVM's handling of Xen MSR writes and
xen_hvm_config
- Update Xen TSC leaves during CPUID emulation instead of modifying
the CPUID entries when updating PV clocks; there is no guarantee PV
clocks will be updated between TSC frequency changes and CPUID
emulation, and guest reads of the TSC leaves should be rare, i.e.
are not a hot path
x86 (Intel):
- Fix a bug where KVM unnecessarily reads XFD_ERR from hardware and
thus modifies the vCPU's XFD_ERR on a #NM due to CR0.TS=1
- Pass XFD_ERR as the payload when injecting #NM, as a preparatory
step for upcoming FRED virtualization support
- Decouple the EPT entry RWX protection bit macros from the EPT
Violation bits, both as a general cleanup and in anticipation of
adding support for emulating Mode-Based Execution Control (MBEC)
- Reject KVM_RUN if userspace manages to gain control and stuff
invalid guest state while KVM is in the middle of emulating nested
VM-Enter
- Add a macro to handle KVM's sanity checks on entry/exit VMCS
control pairs in anticipation of adding sanity checks for secondary
exit controls (the primary field is out of bits)
x86 (AMD):
- Ensure the PSP driver is initialized when both the PSP and KVM
modules are built-in (the initcall framework doesn't handle
dependencies)
- Use long-term pins when registering encrypted memory regions, so
that the pages are migrated out of MIGRATE_CMA/ZONE_MOVABLE and
don't lead to excessive fragmentation
- Add macros and helpers for setting GHCB return/error codes
- Add support for Idle HLT interception, which elides interception if
the vCPU has a pending, unmasked virtual IRQ when HLT is executed
- Fix a bug in INVPCID emulation where KVM fails to check for a
non-canonical address
- Don't attempt VMRUN for SEV-ES+ guests if the vCPU's VMSA is
invalid, e.g. because the vCPU was "destroyed" via SNP's AP
Creation hypercall
- Reject SNP AP Creation if the requested SEV features for the vCPU
don't match the VM's configured set of features
Selftests:
- Fix again the Intel PMU counters test; add a data load and do
CLFLUSH{OPT} on the data instead of executing code. The theory is
that modern Intel CPUs have learned new code prefetching tricks
that bypass the PMU counters
- Fix a flaw in the Intel PMU counters test where it asserts that an
event is counting correctly without actually knowing what the event
counts on the underlying hardware
- Fix a variety of flaws, bugs, and false failures/passes
dirty_log_test, and improve its coverage by collecting all dirty
entries on each iteration
- Fix a few minor bugs related to handling of stats FDs
- Add infrastructure to make vCPU and VM stats FDs available to tests
by default (open the FDs during VM/vCPU creation)
- Relax an assertion on the number of HLT exits in the xAPIC IPI test
when running on a CPU that supports AMD's Idle HLT (which elides
interception of HLT if a virtual IRQ is pending and unmasked)"

Pull VDSO infrastructure updates from Thomas Gleixner:
- Consolidate the VDSO storage
The VDSO data storage and data layout has been largely architecture
specific for historical reasons. That increases the maintenance
effort and causes inconsistencies over and over.
There is no real technical reason for architecture specific layouts
and implementations. The architecture specific details can easily be
integrated into a generic layout, which also reduces the amount of
duplicated code for managing the mappings.
Convert all architectures over to a unified layout and common mapping
infrastructure. This splits the VDSO data layout into subsystem
specific blocks, timekeeping, random and architecture parts, which
provides a better structure and allows to improve and update the
functionalities without conflict and interaction.
- Rework the timekeeping data storage
The current implementation is designed for exposing system
timekeeping accessors, which was good enough at the time when it was
designed.
PTP and Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) change that as there are
requirements to expose independent PTP clocks, which are not related
to system timekeeping.
Replace the monolithic data storage by a structured layout, which
allows to add support for independent PTP clocks on top while reusing
both the data structures and the time accessor implementations.

Using Clement's new validation callbacks, support checking that
dependencies have been satisfied for the vector extensions. From the
kernel's perfective, it's not required to differentiate between the
conditions for all the various vector subsets - it's the firmware's job
to not report impossible combinations. Instead, the kernel only has to
check that the correct config options are enabled and to enforce its
requirement of the d extension being present for FPU support.
Since vector will now be disabled proactively, there's no need to clear
the bit in elf_hwcap in riscv_fill_hwcap() any longer.

The immediate issue being fixed here is a nVMX bug where KVM fails to
detect that, after nested VM-Exit, L1 has a pending IRQ (or NMI).
However, checking for a pending interrupt accesses the legacy PIC, and
x86's kvm_arch_destroy_vm() currently frees the PIC before destroying
vCPUs, i.e. checking for IRQs during the forced nested VM-Exit results
in a NULL pointer deref; that's a prerequisite for the nVMX fix.
The remaining patches attempt to bring a bit of sanity to x86's VM
teardown code, which has accumulated a lot of cruft over the years. E.g.
KVM currently unloads each vCPU's MMUs in a separate operation from
destroying vCPUs, all because when guest SMP support was added, KVM had a
kludgy MMU teardown flow that broke when a VM had more than one 1 vCPU.
And that oddity lived on, for 18 years...

We have duplicated the definition of the nop instruction in ftrace.h and
in jump_label.c. Move this definition into the generic file insn-def.h
so that they can share the definition with each other and with future
files.

Andrew Jones <ajones@ventanamicro.com> says:
The first six patches of this series are fixes and cleanups of the
unaligned access speed probing code. The next patch introduces a
kernel command line option that allows the probing to be skipped.
This command line option is a different approach than Jesse's [1].
[1] takes a cpu-list for a particular speed, supporting heterogeneous
platforms. With this approach, the kernel command line should only
be used for homogeneous platforms. [1] also only allowed 'fast' and
'slow' to be selected. This parameter also supports 'unsupported',
which could be useful for testing code paths gated on that. The final
patch adds the documentation.

Several functions used in unaligned access probing are only run at
init time. Annotate them appropriately.

make_call_ra
This patch adds parentheses to parameters caller and callee of macros
make_call_t0 and make_call_ra. Every existing invocation of these two
macros uses a single variable for each argument, so the absence of the
parentheses seems okay. However, future invocations might use more
complex expressions as arguments. For example, a future invocation might
look like this: make_call_t0(a - b, c, call). Without parentheses in the
macro definition, the macro invocation expands to:
...
unsigned int offset = (unsigned long) c - (unsigned long) a - b;
...
which is clearly wrong.
The use of parentheses ensures arguments are correctly evaluated and
potentially saves future users of make_call_t0 and make_call_ra debugging
trouble.

The size of ®s->a0 is unknown, causing the error:
../include/linux/fortify-string.h:571:25: warning: call to
'__write_overflow_field' declared with attribute warning: detected write
beyond size of field (1st parameter); maybe use struct_group()?
[-Wattribute-warning]
Fix this by wrapping the required registers in pt_regs with
struct_group() and reference the group when doing the offending
memcpy().
