We allocate memory of size 'xlen + strlen(boot_command_line) + 1' for
static_command_line, but the strings copied into static_command_line are
extra_command_line and command_line, rather than extra_command_line and
boot_command_line.
When strlen(command_line) > strlen(boot_command_line), static_command_line
will overflow.
This patch just recovers strlen(command_line) which was miss-consolidated
with strlen(boot_command_line) in the commit f5c7310ac73e ("init/main: add
checks for the return value of memblock_alloc*()")

If the "bootconfig" kernel command-line argument was specified or if
the kernel was built with CONFIG_BOOT_CONFIG_FORCE, but if there are
no embedded kernel parameter, omit the "# Parameters from bootloader:"
comment from the /proc/bootconfig file. This will cause automation
to fall back to the /proc/cmdline file, which will be identical to the
comment in this no-embedded-kernel-parameters case.

When a static_key is marked ro_after_init, its state will never change
(after init), therefore jump_label_update() will never need to iterate
the entries, and thus module load won't actually need to track this --
avoiding the static_key::next write.
Therefore, mark these keys such that jump_label_add_module() might
recognise them and avoid the modification.
Use the special state: 'static_key_linked(key) && !static_key_mod(key)'
to denote such keys.
jump_label_add_module() does not exist under CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL=n, so the
newly-introduced jump_label_init_ro() can be defined as a nop for that
configuration.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- Sumanth Korikkar has taught s390 to allocate hotplug-time page frames
from hotplugged memory rather than only from main memory. Series
"implement "memmap on memory" feature on s390".
- More folio conversions from Matthew Wilcox in the series
"Convert memcontrol charge moving to use folios"
"mm: convert mm counter to take a folio"
- Chengming Zhou has optimized zswap's rbtree locking, providing
significant reductions in system time and modest but measurable
reductions in overall runtimes. The series is "mm/zswap: optimize the
scalability of zswap rb-tree".
- Chengming Zhou has also provided the series "mm/zswap: optimize zswap
lru list" which provides measurable runtime benefits in some
swap-intensive situations.
- And Chengming Zhou further optimizes zswap in the series "mm/zswap:
optimize for dynamic zswap_pools". Measured improvements are modest.
- zswap cleanups and simplifications from Yosry Ahmed in the series
"mm: zswap: simplify zswap_swapoff()".
- In the series "Add DAX ABI for memmap_on_memory", Vishal Verma has
contributed several DAX cleanups as well as adding a sysfs tunable to
control the memmap_on_memory setting when the dax device is
hotplugged as system memory.
- Johannes Weiner has added the large series "mm: zswap: cleanups",
which does that.
- More DAMON work from SeongJae Park in the series
"mm/damon: make DAMON debugfs interface deprecation unignorable"
"selftests/damon: add more tests for core functionalities and corner cases"
"Docs/mm/damon: misc readability improvements"
"mm/damon: let DAMOS feeds and tame/auto-tune itself"
- In the series "mm/mempolicy: weighted interleave mempolicy and sysfs
extension" Rakie Kim has developed a new mempolicy interleaving
policy wherein we allocate memory across nodes in a weighted fashion
rather than uniformly. This is beneficial in heterogeneous memory
environments appearing with CXL.
- Christophe Leroy has contributed some cleanup and consolidation work
against the ARM pagetable dumping code in the series "mm: ptdump:
Refactor CONFIG_DEBUG_WX and check_wx_pages debugfs attribute".
- Luis Chamberlain has added some additional xarray selftesting in the
series "test_xarray: advanced API multi-index tests".
- Muhammad Usama Anjum has reworked the selftest code to make its
human-readable output conform to the TAP ("Test Anything Protocol")
format. Amongst other things, this opens up the use of third-party
tools to parse and process out selftesting results.
- Ryan Roberts has added fork()-time PTE batching of THP ptes in the
series "mm/memory: optimize fork() with PTE-mapped THP". Mainly
targeted at arm64, this significantly speeds up fork() when the
process has a large number of pte-mapped folios.
- David Hildenbrand also gets in on the THP pte batching game in his
series "mm/memory: optimize unmap/zap with PTE-mapped THP". It
implements batching during munmap() and other pte teardown
situations. The microbenchmark improvements are nice.
- And in the series "Transparent Contiguous PTEs for User Mappings"
Ryan Roberts further utilizes arm's pte's contiguous bit ("contpte
mappings"). Kernel build times on arm64 improved nicely. Ryan's
series "Address some contpte nits" provides some followup work.
- In the series "mm/hugetlb: Restore the reservation" Breno Leitao has
fixed an obscure hugetlb race which was causing unnecessary page
faults. He has also added a reproducer under the selftest code.
- In the series "selftests/mm: Output cleanups for the compaction
test", Mark Brown did what the title claims.
- Kinsey Ho has added the series "mm/mglru: code cleanup and
refactoring".
- Even more zswap material from Nhat Pham. The series "fix and extend
zswap kselftests" does as claimed.
- In the series "Introduce cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() to fix DAX
regression" Mathieu Desnoyers has cleaned up and fixed rather a mess
in our handling of DAX on archiecctures which have virtually aliasing
data caches. The arm architecture is the main beneficiary.
- Lokesh Gidra's series "per-vma locks in userfaultfd" provides
dramatic improvements in worst-case mmap_lock hold times during
certain userfaultfd operations.
- Some page_owner enhancements and maintenance work from Oscar Salvador
in his series
"page_owner: print stacks and their outstanding allocations"
"page_owner: Fixup and cleanup"
- Uladzislau Rezki has contributed some vmalloc scalability
improvements in his series "Mitigate a vmap lock contention". It
realizes a 12x improvement for a certain microbenchmark.
- Some kexec/crash cleanup work from Baoquan He in the series "Split
crash out from kexec and clean up related config items".
- Some zsmalloc maintenance work from Chengming Zhou in the series
"mm/zsmalloc: fix and optimize objects/page migration"
"mm/zsmalloc: some cleanup for get/set_zspage_mapping()"
- Zi Yan has taught the MM to perform compaction on folios larger than
order=0. This a step along the path to implementaton of the merging
of large anonymous folios. The series is named "Enable >0 order folio
memory compaction".
- Christoph Hellwig has done quite a lot of cleanup work in the
pagecache writeback code in his series "convert write_cache_pages()
to an iterator".
- Some modest hugetlb cleanups and speedups in Vishal Moola's series
"Handle hugetlb faults under the VMA lock".
- Zi Yan has changed the page splitting code so we can split huge pages
into sizes other than order-0 to better utilize large folios. The
series is named "Split a folio to any lower order folios".
- David Hildenbrand has contributed the series "mm: remove
total_mapcount()", a cleanup.
- Matthew Wilcox has sought to improve the performance of bulk memory
freeing in his series "Rearrange batched folio freeing".
- Gang Li's series "hugetlb: parallelize hugetlb page init on boot"
provides large improvements in bootup times on large machines which
are configured to use large numbers of hugetlb pages.
- Matthew Wilcox's series "PageFlags cleanups" does that.
- Qi Zheng's series "minor fixes and supplement for ptdesc" does that
also. S390 is affected.
- Cleanups to our pagemap utility functions from Peter Xu in his series
"mm/treewide: Replace pXd_large() with pXd_leaf()".
- Nico Pache has fixed a few things with our hugepage selftests in his
series "selftests/mm: Improve Hugepage Test Handling in MM
Selftests".
- Also, of course, many singleton patches to many things. Please see
the individual changelogs for details.

Pull x86 APIC updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Rework of APIC enumeration and topology evaluation.
The current implementation has a couple of shortcomings:
- It fails to handle hybrid systems correctly.
- The APIC registration code which handles CPU number assignents is
in the middle of the APIC code and detached from the topology
evaluation.
- The various mechanisms which enumerate APICs, ACPI, MPPARSE and
guest specific ones, tweak global variables as they see fit or in
case of XENPV just hack around the generic mechanisms completely.
- The CPUID topology evaluation code is sprinkled all over the vendor
code and reevaluates global variables on every hotplug operation.
- There is no way to analyze topology on the boot CPU before bringing
up the APs. This causes problems for infrastructure like PERF which
needs to size certain aspects upfront or could be simplified if
that would be possible.
- The APIC admission and CPU number association logic is
incomprehensible and overly complex and needs to be kept around
after boot instead of completing this right after the APIC
enumeration.
This update addresses these shortcomings with the following changes:
- Rework the CPUID evaluation code so it is common for all vendors
and provides information about the APIC ID segments in a uniform
way independent of the number of segments (Thread, Core, Module,
..., Die, Package) so that this information can be computed instead
of rewriting global variables of dubious value over and over.
- A few cleanups and simplifcations of the APIC, IO/APIC and related
interfaces to prepare for the topology evaluation changes.
- Seperation of the parser stages so the early evaluation which tries
to find the APIC address can be seperately overridden from the late
evaluation which enumerates and registers the local APIC as further
preparation for sanitizing the topology evaluation.
- A new registration and admission logic which
- encapsulates the inner workings so that parsers and guest logic
cannot longer fiddle in it
- uses the APIC ID segments to build topology bitmaps at
registration time
- provides a sane admission logic
- allows to detect the crash kernel case, where CPU0 does not run
on the real BSP, automatically. This is required to prevent
sending INIT/SIPI sequences to the real BSP which would reset
the whole machine. This was so far handled by a tedious command
line parameter, which does not even work in nested crash
scenarios.
- Associates CPU number after the enumeration completed and
prevents the late registration of APICs, which was somehow
tolerated before.
- Converting all parsers and guest enumeration mechanisms over to the
new interfaces.
This allows to get rid of all global variable tweaking from the
parsers and enumeration mechanisms and sanitizes the XEN[PV]
handling so it can use CPUID evaluation for the first time.
- Mopping up existing sins by taking the information from the APIC ID
segment bitmaps.
This evaluates hybrid systems correctly on the boot CPU and allows
for cleanups and fixes in the related drivers, e.g. PERF.
The series has been extensively tested and the minimal late fallout
due to a broken ACPI/MADT table has been addressed by tightening the
admission logic further"

Pull workqueue updates from Tejun Heo:
"This cycle, a lot of workqueue changes including some that are
significant and invasive.
- During v6.6 cycle, unbound workqueues were updated so that they are
more topology aware and flexible, which among other things improved
workqueue behavior on modern multi-L3 CPUs. In the process, commit
636b927eba5b ("workqueue: Make unbound workqueues to use per-cpu
pool_workqueues") switched unbound workqueues to use per-CPU
frontend pool_workqueues as a part of increasing front-back mapping
flexibility.
An unwelcome side effect of this change was that this made max
concurrency enforcement per-CPU blowing up the maximum number of
allowed concurrent executions. I incorrectly assumed that this
wouldn't cause practical problems as most unbound workqueue users
are self-regulate max concurrency; however, there definitely are
which don't (e.g. on IO paths) and the drastic increase in the
allowed max concurrency led to noticeable perf regressions in some
use cases.
This is now addressed by separating out max concurrency enforcement
to a separate struct - wq_node_nr_active - which makes @max_active
consistently mean system-wide max concurrency regardless of the
number of CPUs or (finally) NUMA nodes. This is a rather invasive
and, in places, a bit clunky; however, the clunkiness rises from
the the inherent requirement to handle the disagreement between the
execution locality domain and max concurrency enforcement domain on
some modern machines.
See commit 5797b1c18919 ("workqueue: Implement system-wide
nr_active enforcement for unbound workqueues") for more details.
- BH workqueue support is added.
They are similar to per-CPU workqueues but execute work items in
the softirq context. This is expected to replace tasklet. However,
currently, it's missing the ability to disable and enable work
items which is needed to convert many tasklet users. To avoid
crowding this merge window too much, this will be included in the
next merge window. A separate pull request will be sent for the
couple conversion patches that are currently pending.
- Waiman plugged a long-standing hole in workqueue CPU isolation
where ordered workqueues didn't follow wq_unbound_cpumask updates.
Ordered workqueues now follow the same rules as other unbound
workqueues.
- More CPU isolation improvements: Juri fixed another deficit in
workqueue isolation where unbound rescuers don't respect
wq_unbound_cpumask. Leonardo fixed delayed_work timers firing on
isolated CPUs.
- Other misc changes"

The synchronization here is to ensure the ordering of freeing of a module
init so that it happens before W+X checking. It is worth noting it is not
that the freeing was not happening, it is just that our sanity checkers
raced against the permission checkers which assume init memory is already
gone.
Commit 1a7b7d922081 ("modules: Use vmalloc special flag") moved calling
do_free_init() into a global workqueue instead of relying on it being
called through call_rcu(..., do_free_init), which used to allowed us call
do_free_init() asynchronously after the end of a subsequent grace period.
The move to a global workqueue broke the gaurantees for code which needed
to be sure the do_free_init() would complete with rcu_barrier(). To fix
this callers which used to rely on rcu_barrier() must now instead use
flush_work(&init_free_wq).
Without this fix, we still could encounter false positive reports in W+X
checking since the rcu_barrier() here can not ensure the ordering now.
Even worse, the rcu_barrier() can introduce significant delay. Eric
Chanudet reported that the rcu_barrier introduces ~0.1s delay on a
PREEMPT_RT kernel.
[ 0.291444] Freeing unused kernel memory: 5568K
[ 0.402442] Run /sbin/init as init process
With this fix, the above delay can be eliminated.

This moves pidfds from the anonymous inode infrastructure to a tiny

unblock further work that we weren't able to do simply because of the
very justified limitations of anonymous inodes. Moving pidfds to a tiny
pseudo filesystem allows:
* statx() on pidfds becomes useful for the first time.
* pidfds can be compared simply via statx() and then comparing inode
numbers.
* pidfds have unique inode numbers for the system lifetime.
* struct pid is now stashed in inode->i_private instead of
file->private_data. This means it is now possible to introduce
concepts that operate on a process once all file descriptors have been
closed. A concrete example is kill-on-last-close.
* file->private_data is freed up for per-file options for pidfds.
* Each struct pid will refer to a different inode but the same struct
pid will refer to the same inode if it's opened multiple times. In
contrast to now where each struct pid refers to the same inode. Even
if we were to move to anon_inode_create_getfile() which creates new
inodes we'd still be associating the same struct pid with multiple
different inodes.
The tiny pseudo filesystem is not visible anywhere in userspace exactly
like e.g., pipefs and sockfs. There's no lookup, there's no complex
inode operations, nothing. Dentries and inodes are always deleted when
the last pidfd is closed.
We allocate a new inode for each struct pid and we reuse that inode for
all pidfds. We use iget_locked() to find that inode again based on the
inode number which isn't recycled. We allocate a new dentry for each
pidfd that uses the same inode. That is similar to anonymous inodes
which reuse the same inode for thousands of dentries. For pidfds we're
talking way less than that. There usually won't be a lot of concurrent
openers of the same struct pid. They can probably often be counted on
two hands. I know that systemd does use separate pidfd for the same
struct pid for various complex process tracking issues. So I think with
that things actually become way simpler. Especially because we don't
have to care about lookup. Dentries and inodes continue to be always
deleted.
The code is entirely optional and fairly small. If it's not selected we
fallback to anonymous inodes. Heavily inspired by nsfs which uses a
similar stashing mechanism just for namespaces.

All architectures using the core ptdump functionality also implement
CONFIG_DEBUG_WX, and they all do it more or less the same way, with a
function called debug_checkwx() that is called by mark_rodata_ro(), which
is a substitute to ptdump_check_wx() when CONFIG_DEBUG_WX is set and a
no-op otherwise.
Refactor by centrally defining debug_checkwx() in linux/ptdump.h and call
debug_checkwx() immediately after calling mark_rodata_ro() instead of
calling it at the end of every mark_rodata_ro().
On x86_32, mark_rodata_ro() first checks __supported_pte_mask has _PAGE_NX
before calling debug_checkwx(). Now the check is inside the callee
ptdump_walk_pgd_level_checkwx().
On powerpc_64, mark_rodata_ro() bails out early before calling
ptdump_check_wx() when the MMU doesn't have KERNEL_RO feature. The check
is now also done in ptdump_check_wx() as it is called outside
mark_rodata_ro().

Async can schedule a number of interdependent work items. However, since
5797b1c18919 ("workqueue: Implement system-wide nr_active enforcement for
unbound workqueues"), unbound workqueues have separate min_active which sets
the number of interdependent work items that can be handled. This default
value is 8 which isn't sufficient for async and can lead to stalls during
resume from suspend in some cases.
Let's use a dedicated unbound workqueue with raised min_active.

The code that checks for unknown boot options is unaware of the sysctl
alias facility, which maps bootparams to sysctl values. If a user sets
an old value that has a valid alias, a message about an invalid
parameter will be printed during boot, and the parameter will get passed
to init. Fix by checking for the existence of aliased parameters in the
unknown boot parameter code. If an alias exists, don't return an error
or pass the value to init.

During boot, to initialize unbound CPU pods, wq_pod_init() was called from
workqueue_init(). This is early enough for NUMA nodes to be set up but
before SMP is brought up and CPU topology information is populated.
Workqueue is in the process of improving CPU locality for unbound workqueues
and will need access to topology information during pod init. This adds a
new init function workqueue_init_topology() which is called after CPU
topology information is available and replaces wq_pod_init().
As unbound CPU pods are now initialized after workqueues are activated, we
need to revisit the workqueues to apply the pod configuration. Workqueues
which are created before workqueue_init_topology() are set up so that they
always use the default worker pool. After pods are set up in
workqueue_init_topology(), wq_update_pod() is called on all existing
workqueues to update the pool associations accordingly.
Note that wq_update_pod_attrs_buf allocation is moved to
workqueue_init_early(). This isn't necessary right now but enables further
generalization of pod handling in the future.
This patch changes the initialization sequence but the end result should be
the same.

X86 is reworking the boot process so that initializations which are not
required during early boot can be moved into the late boot process and out
of the fragile and restricted initial boot phase.
arch_cpu_finalize_init() is the obvious place to do such initializations,
but arch_cpu_finalize_init() is invoked too late in start_kernel() e.g. for
initializing the FPU completely. fork_init() requires that the FPU is
initialized as the size of task_struct on X86 depends on the size of the
required FPU register buffer.
Fortunately none of the init calls between calibrate_delay() and
arch_cpu_finalize_init() is relevant for the functionality of
arch_cpu_finalize_init().
Invoke it right after calibrate_delay() where everything which is relevant
for arch_cpu_finalize_init() has been set up already.
No functional change intended.

check_bugs() has become a dumping ground for all sorts of activities to
finalize the CPU initialization before running the rest of the init code.
Most are empty, a few do actual bug checks, some do alternative patching
and some cobble a CPU advertisement string together....
Aside of that the current implementation requires duplicated function
declaration and mostly empty header files for them.
Provide a new function arch_cpu_finalize_init(). Provide a generic
declaration if CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_CPU_FINALIZE_INIT is selected and a stub
inline otherwise.
This requires a temporary #ifdef in start_kernel() which will be removed
along with check_bugs() once the architectures are converted over.

Now that we have no_stack_protector function attribute (gcc-11+,

prevent_tail_call_optimization() such that we may one day remove it
outright.

Back during the discussion of
commit a9a3ed1eff36 ("x86: Fix early boot crash on gcc-10, third try")
we discussed the need for a function attribute to control the omission
of stack protectors on a per-function basis; at the time Clang had
support for no_stack_protector but GCC did not. This was fixed in
gcc-11. Now that the function attribute is available, let's start using
it.
Callers of boot_init_stack_canary need to use this function attribute
unless they're compiled with -fno-stack-protector, otherwise the canary
stored in the stack slot of the caller will differ upon the call to
boot_init_stack_canary. This will lead to a call to __stack_chk_fail()
then panic.

address space in two parts: encrypted and unencrypted. The use case
being running unmodified guests on the Hyper-V confidential computing
hypervisor
- Double-buffer messages between the guest and the hardware PSP device

Pull user work thread updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the work generalizing the ability to create a kernel
worker from a userspace process.
Such user workers will run with the same credentials as the userspace
process they were created from providing stronger security and
accounting guarantees than the traditional override_creds() approach
ever could've hoped for.
The original work was heavily based and optimzed for the needs of
io_uring which was the first user. However, as it quickly turned out
the ability to create user workers inherting properties from a
userspace process is generally useful.
The vhost subsystem currently creates workers using the kthread api.
The consequences of using the kthread api are that RLIMITs don't work
correctly as they are inherited from khtreadd. This leads to bugs
where more workers are created than would be allowed by the RLIMITs of
the userspace process in lieu of which workers are created.
Problems like this disappear with user workers created from the
userspace processes for which they perform the work. In addition,
providing this api allows vhost to remove additional complexity. For
example, cgroup and mm sharing will just work out of the box with user
workers based on the relevant userspace process instead of manually
ensuring the correct cgroup and mm contexts are used.
So the vhost subsystem should simply be made to use the same mechanism
as io_uring. To this end the original mechanism used for
create_io_thread() is generalized into user workers:
- Introduce PF_USER_WORKER as a generic indicator that a given task
is a user worker, i.e., a kernel task that was created from a
userspace process. Now a PF_IO_WORKER thread is just a specialized
version of PF_USER_WORKER. So io_uring io workers raise both flags.
- Make copy_process() available to core kernel code
- Extend struct kernel_clone_args with the following bitfields
allowing to indicate to copy_process():
- to create a user worker (raise PF_USER_WORKER)
- to not inherit any files from the userspace process
- to ignore signals
After all generic changes are in place the vhost subsystem implements
a new dedicated vhost api based on user workers. Finally, vhost is
switched to rely on the new api moving it off of kthreads.
Thanks to Mike for sticking it out and making it through this rather
arduous journey"

When deferred initialization of struct pages is enabled, page_ext_init()
must be called after all the deferred initialization is done, but there is
no point to keep it a separate call from kernel_init_freeable() right

Fold the call to page_ext_init() into page_alloc_init_late() and localize
deferred_struct_pages variable.

Full Hyper-V initialization, including support for hypercalls, is done
as an apic_post_init callback via late_time_init(). mem_encrypt_init()
needs to make hypercalls when it marks swiotlb memory as decrypted.
But mem_encrypt_init() is currently called a few lines before
late_time_init(), so the hypercalls don't work.
Fix this by moving mem_encrypt_init() after late_time_init() and
related clock initializations. The intervening initializations don't
do any I/O that requires the swiotlb, so moving mem_encrypt_init()
slightly later has no impact.

The BOOT_CONFIG family of Kconfig options allows a bootconfig file
containing kernel boot parameters to be embedded into an initrd or into
the kernel itself. This can be extremely useful when deploying kernels
in cases where some of the boot parameters depend on the kernel version
rather than on the server hardware, firmware, or workload.
Unfortunately, the "bootconfig" kernel parameter must be specified in
order to cause the kernel to look for the embedded bootconfig file,
and it clearly does not help to embed this "bootconfig" kernel parameter
into that file.
Therefore, provide a new BOOT_CONFIG_FORCE Kconfig option that causes the
kernel to act as if the "bootconfig" kernel parameter had been specified.
In other words, kernels built with CONFIG_BOOT_CONFIG_FORCE=y will look
for the embedded bootconfig file even when the "bootconfig" kernel
parameter is omitted. This permits kernel-version-dependent kernel
boot parameters to be embedded into the kernel image without the need to
(for example) update large numbers of boot loaders.

page_ext must be initialized after all struct pages are initialized.
Therefore, page_ext is initialized after page_alloc_init_late(), and can
optionally be initialized earlier via early_page_ext kernel parameter
which as a side effect also disables deferred struct pages.
Allow to automatically init page_ext early when there are no deferred
struct pages in order to be able to use page_ext during kernel boot and
track for example page allocations early.

Most /proc files don't have length (in fstat sense). This leads to
inefficiencies when reading such files with APIs commonly found in modern
programming languages. They open file, then fstat descriptor, get st_size
== 0 and either assume file is empty or start reading without knowing
target size.
cat(1) does OK because it uses large enough buffer by default. But naive
programs copy-pasted from SO aren't:
let mut f = std::fs::File::open("/proc/cmdline").unwrap();
let mut buf: Vec<u8> = Vec::new();
f.read_to_end(&mut buf).unwrap();
will result in
openat(AT_FDCWD, "/proc/cmdline", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3
statx(0, NULL, AT_STATX_SYNC_AS_STAT, STATX_ALL, NULL) = -1 EFAULT (Bad address)
statx(3, "", AT_STATX_SYNC_AS_STAT|AT_EMPTY_PATH, STATX_ALL, {stx_mask=STATX_BASIC_STATS|STATX_MNT_ID, stx_attributes=0, stx_mode=S_IFREG|0444, stx_size=0, ...}) = 0
lseek(3, 0, SEEK_CUR) = 0
read(3, "BOOT_IMAGE=(hd3,gpt2)/vmlinuz-5.", 32) = 32
read(3, "19.6-100.fc35.x86_64 root=/dev/m", 32) = 32
read(3, "apper/fedora_localhost--live-roo"..., 64) = 64
read(3, "ocalhost--live-swap rd.lvm.lv=fe"..., 128) = 116
read(3, "", 12)
open/stat is OK, lseek looks silly but there are 3 unnecessary reads
because Rust starts with 32 bytes per Vec<u8> and grows from there.
In case of /proc/cmdline, the length is known precisely.
Make variables readonly while I'm at it.
P.S.: I tried to scp /proc/cpuinfo today and got empty file
but this is separate story.
