If rxrpc_recvmsg() fails because MSG_DONTWAIT was specified but the call at
the front of the recvmsg queue already has its mutex locked, it requeues
the call - whether or not the call is already queued. The call may be on
the queue because MSG_PEEK was also passed and so the call was not dequeued
or because the I/O thread requeued it.
The unconditional requeue may then corrupt the recvmsg queue, leading to
things like UAFs or refcount underruns.
Fix this by only requeuing the call if it isn't already on the queue - and
moving it to the front if it is already queued. If we don't queue it, we
have to put the ref we obtained by dequeuing it.
Also, MSG_PEEK doesn't dequeue the call so shouldn't call
rxrpc_notify_socket() for the call if we didn't use up all the data on the
queue, so fix that also.

I haven't found an NFSERR_EAGAIN in RFCs 1094, 1813, 7530, or 8881.
None of these RFCs have an NFS status code that match the numeric
value "11".
Based on the meaning of the EAGAIN errno, I presume the use of this
status in NFSD means NFS4ERR_DELAY. So replace the one usage of
nfserr_eagain, and remove it from NFSD's NFS status conversion
tables.
As far as I can tell, NFSERR_EAGAIN has existed since the pre-git
era, but was not actually used by any code until commit f4e44b3933
("NFSD: delay unmount source's export after inter-server copy
completed."), at which time it become possible for NFSD to return
a status code of 11 (which is not valid NFS protocol).

When evicting an inode the first thing we do is to setup tracing for it,
which implies fetching the root's id. But in btrfs_evict_inode() the
root might be NULL, as implied in the next check that we do in
btrfs_evict_inode().
Hence, we either should set the ->root_objectid to 0 in case the root is
NULL, or we move tracing setup after checking that the root is not
NULL. Setting the rootid to 0 at least gives us the possibility to trace
this call even in the case when the root is NULL, so that's the solution
taken here.

This patch adds trace points to the Ceph filesystem MDS client:
- request submission (CEPH_MSG_CLIENT_REQUEST) and completion
(CEPH_MSG_CLIENT_REPLY)
- capabilities (CEPH_MSG_CLIENT_CAPS)
These are the central pieces that are useful for analyzing MDS
latency/performance problems from the client's perspective.
In the long run, all doutc() calls should be replaced with
tracepoints. This way, the Ceph filesystem can be traced at any time
(without spamming the kernel log). Additionally, trace points can be
used in BPF programs (which can even deference the pointer parameters
and extract more values).

- add a sysfs entry to show max open zones
- add fadvise tracepoint
- use global inline_xattr_slab instead of per-sb slab cache
- set default valid_thresh_ratio to 80 for zoned devices

- Merge branch shared with kprobes on extending trace options
The trace options were defined by a 32 bit variable. This limits the
tracing instances to have a total of 32 different options. As that limit
has been hit, and more options are being added, increase the option mask
to a 64 bit number, doubling the number of options available.
As this is required for the kprobe topic branches as well as the tracing
topic branch, a separate branch was created and merged into both.
- Make trace_user_fault_read() available for the rest of tracing
The function trace_user_fault_read() is used by trace_marker file read to
allow reading user space to be done fast and without locking or
allocations. Make this available so that the system call trace events can
use it too.
- Have system call trace events read user space values
Now that the system call trace events callbacks are called in a faultable
context, take advantage of this and read the user space buffers for
various system calls. For example, show the path name of the openat system
call instead of just showing the pointer to that path name in user space.
Also show the contents of the buffer of the write system call. Several
system call trace events are updated to make tracing into a light weight
strace tool for all applications in the system.
- Update perf system call tracing to do the same
- And a config and syscall_user_buf_size file to control the size of the buffer
Limit the amount of data that can be read from user space. The default
size is 63 bytes but that can be expanded to 165 bytes.
- Allow the persistent ring buffer to print system calls normally
The persistent ring buffer prints trace events by their type and ignores
the print_fmt. This is because the print_fmt may change from kernel to
kernel. As the system call output is fixed by the system call ABI itself,
there's no reason to limit that. This makes reading the system call events
in the persistent ring buffer much nicer and easier to understand.
- Add options to show text offset to function profiler
The function profiler that counts the number of times a function is hit
currently lists all functions by its name and offset. But this becomes
ambiguous when there are several functions with the same name. Add a
tracing option that changes the output to be that of _text+offset
instead. Now a user space tool can use this information to map the
_text+offset to the unique function it is counting.
- Report bad dynamic event command
If a bad command is passed to the dynamic_events file, report it properly
in the error log.
- Clean up tracer options
Clean up the tracer option code a bit, by removing some useless code and
also using switch statements instead of a series of if statements.
- Have tracing options be instance specific
Tracers can have their own options (function tracer, irqsoff tracer,
function graph tracer, etc). But now that the same tracer can be enabled
in multiple trace instances, their options are still global. The API is
per instance, thus changing one affects other instances. This isn't even
consistent, as the option take affect differently depending on when an
tracer started in an instance. Make the options for instances only affect
the instance it is changed under.
- Optimize pid_list lock contention
Whenever the pid_list is read, it uses a spin lock. This happens at every
sched switch. Taking the lock at sched switch can be removed by instead
using a seqlock counter.
- Clean up the trace trigger structures
The trigger code uses two different structures to implement a single
tigger. This was due to trying to reuse code for the two different types
of triggers (always on trigger, and count limited trigger). But by adding
a single field to one structure, the other structure could be absorbed
into the first structure making he code easier to understand.
- Create a bulk garbage collector for trace triggers
If user space has triggers for several hundreds of events and then removes
them, it can take several seconds to complete. This is because each
removal calls the slow tracepoint_synchronize_unregister() that can take
hundreds of milliseconds to complete. Instead, create a helper thread that
will do the clean up. When a trigger is removed, it will create the
kthread if it isn't already created, and then add the trigger to a llist.
The kthread will take the items off the llist, call
tracepoint_synchronize_unregister(), and then remove the items it took
off. It will then check if there's more items to free before sleeping.
This makes user space removing all these triggers to finish in less than a
second.
- Allow function tracing of some of the tracing infrastructure code
Because the tracing code can cause recursion issues if it is traced by the
function tracer the entire tracing directory disables function tracing.
But not all of tracing causes issues if it is traced. Namely, the event
tracing code. Add a config that enables some of the tracing code to be
traced to help in debugging it. Note, when this is enabled, it does add
noise to general function tracing, especially if events are enabled as
well (which is a common case).
- Add boot-time backup instance for persistent buffer
The persistent ring buffer is used mostly for kernel crash analysis in the
field. One issue is that if there's a crash, the data in the persistent
ring buffer must be read before tracing can begin using it. This slows
down the boot process. Once tracing starts in the persistent ring buffer,
the old data must be freed and the addresses no longer match and old
events can't be in the buffer with new events.
Create a way to create a backup buffer that copies the persistent ring
buffer at boot up. Then after a crash, the always on tracer can begin
immediately as well as the normal boot process while the crash analysis
tooling uses the backup buffer. After the backup buffer is finished being
read, it can be removed.
- Enable function graph args and return address options at the same time
Currently the when reading of arguments in the function graph tracer is
enabled, the option to record the parent function in the entry event can
not be enabled. Update the code so that it can.
- Add new struct_offset() helper macro
Add a new macro that takes a pointer to a structure and a name of one of
its members and it will return the offset of that member. This allows the
ring buffer code to simplify the following:
From: size = struct_size(entry, buf, cnt - sizeof(entry->id));
To: size = struct_offset(entry, id) + cnt;
There should be other simplifications that this macro can help out with as
well.

This release is almost entirely new drivers, with a couple of small
changes in generic code. The biggest individual update is a rename of
the existing Microchip driver and the addition of a new driver for the
silicon SPI controller in their PolarFire SoCs. The overlap between the
soft IP supported by the current driver and this new one is regrettably
all in the IP and not in the register interface offered to software.
- Add a time offset parameter for offloads, allowing them to be defined
in relation to each other. This is useful for IIO type applcations
where you trigger an operation then read the result after a delay.
- Add a tracepoint for flash exec_ops, bringing the flash support more
in line with the debuggability of vanilla SPI.
- Support for Airoha EN7523, Arduino MCUs, Aspeed AST2700, Microchip
PolarFire SPI controllers, NXP i.MX51 ECSPI target mode, Qualcomm
IPQ5414 and IPQ5332, Renesas RZ/T2H, RZ/V2N and RZ/2NH and SpacemiT K1
QuadSPI.
There's also a small set of ASoC cleanups that I mistakenly applied to
the SPI tree and then put more stuff on top of before it was brought to
my attention, sorry about that.

The majority of changes at this time were about ASoC with a lot of
code refactoring works. From the functionality POV, there aren't much
to see, but we have a wide range of device-specific fixes and updates.
Here are some highlights:
- Continued ASoC API clean works, spanned over many files
- Added a SoundWire SCDA generic class driver with regmap support
- Enhancements and fixes for Cirrus, Intel, Maxim and Qualcomm.
- Support for ASoC Allwinner A523, Mediatek MT8189, Qualcomm QCM2290,
QRB2210 and SM6115, SpacemiT K1, and TI TAS2568, TAS5802, TAS5806,
TAS5815, TAS5828 and TAS5830
- Usual HD-audio and USB-audio quirks and fixups
- Support for Onkyo SE-300PCIE, TASCAM IF-FW/DM MkII
Some gpiolib changes for shared GPIOs are included along with this PR
for covering ASoC drivers changes.

This patch optimizes the tracepoint by replacing these hardcoded strings
with a new enumeration f2fs_cp_phase.
1.Defines enum f2fs_cp_phase with values for each checkpoint phase.
2.Updates trace_f2fs_write_checkpoint to accept a u16 phase argument
instead of a string pointer.
3.Uses __print_symbolic in TP_printk to convert the enum values
back to their corresponding strings for human-readable trace output.
This change reduces the storage overhead for each trace event
by replacing a variable-length string with a 2-byte integer,
while maintaining the same readable output in ftrace.

Core & protocols
----------------
- Replace busylock at the Tx queuing layer with a lockless list. Resulting
in a 300% (4x) improvement on heavy TX workloads, sending twice the
number of packets per second, for half the cpu cycles.
- Allow constantly busy flows to migrate to a more suitable CPU/NIC
queue. Normally we perform queue re-selection when flow comes out
of idle, but under extreme circumstances the flows may be constantly
busy. Add sysctl to allow periodic rehashing even if it'd risk packet
reordering.
- Optimize the NAPI skb cache, make it larger, use it in more paths.
- Attempt returning Tx skbs to the originating CPU (like we already did
for Rx skbs).
- Various data structure layout and prefetch optimizations from Eric.
- Remove ktime_get() from the recvmsg() fast path, ktime_get() is sadly
quite expensive on recent AMD machines.
- Extend threaded NAPI polling to allow the kthread busy poll for packets.
- Make MPTCP use Rx backlog processing. This lowers the lock pressure,
improving the Rx performance.
- Support memcg accounting of MPTCP socket memory.
- Allow admin to opt sockets out of global protocol memory accounting
(using a sysctl or BPF-based policy). The global limits are a poor fit
for modern container workloads, where limits are imposed using cgroups.
- Improve heuristics for when to kick off AF_UNIX garbage collection.
- Allow users to control TCP SACK compression, and default to 33% of RTT.
- Add tcp_rcvbuf_low_rtt sysctl to let datacenter users avoid unnecessarily
aggressive rcvbuf growth and overshot when the connection RTT is low.
- Preserve skb metadata space across skb_push / skb_pull operations.
- Support for IPIP encapsulation in the nftables flowtable offload.
- Support appending IP interface information to ICMP messages (RFC 5837).
- Support setting max record size in TLS (RFC 8449).
- Remove taking rtnl_lock from RTM_GETNEIGHTBL and RTM_SETNEIGHTBL.
- Use a dedicated lock (and RCU) in MPLS, instead of rtnl_lock.
- Let users configure the number of write buffers in SMC.
- Add new struct sockaddr_unsized for sockaddr of unknown length,
from Kees.
- Some conversions away from the crypto_ahash API, from Eric Biggers.
- Some preparations for slimming down struct page.
- YAML Netlink protocol spec for WireGuard.
- Add a tool on top of YAML Netlink specs/lib for reporting commonly
computed derived statistics and summarized system state.

- Add DPLL phase-adjust-gran pin attribute (and implement it in zl3073x).
- Refactor xfrm_input lock to reduce contention when NIC offloads IPsec
and performs RSS.
- Add info to devlink params whether the current setting is the default
or a user override. Allow resetting back to default.

- Improve recovery from misbehaving BPF schedulers. When a scheduler puts many
tasks with varying affinity restrictions on a shared DSQ, CPUs scanning
through tasks they cannot run can overwhelm the system, causing lockups.

hooks into the hardlockup detector to attempt recovery. Add scx_cpu0 example
scheduler to demonstrate this scenario.

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"There are quite a few interesting things here, including new hardware
support, new features, some bug fixes and documentation updates. In
addition, there are a usual bunch of minor fixes and cleanups all
over.
In the new hardware support category, there are intel_pstate and
intel_rapl driver updates to support new processors, Panther Lake,
Wildcat Lake, Noval Lake, and Diamond Rapids in the OOB mode, OPP and
bandwidth allocation support in the tegra186 cpufreq driver, and
JH7110S SOC support in dt-platdev cpufreq.
The new features are the PM QoS CPU latency limit for suspend-to-idle,
the netlink support for the energy model management, support for
terminating system suspend via a wakeup event during the sync of file
systems, configurable number of hibernation compression threads, the
runtime PM auto-cleanup macros, and the "poweroff" PM event that is
expected to be used during system shutdown.
Bugs are mostly fixed in cpuidle governors, but there are also fixes
elsewhere, like in the amd-pstate cpufreq driver.
Documentation updates include, but are not limited to, a new doc on
debugging shutdown hangs, cross-referencing fixes and cleanups in the
intel_pstate documentation, and updates of comments in the core
hibernation code.

The recent enablement of RSEQ in glibc resulted in regressions which are
caused by the related overhead. It turned out that the decision to invoke
the exit to user work was not really a decision. More or less each
context switch caused that. There is a long list of small issues which
sums up nicely and results in a 3-4% regression in I/O benchmarks.
The other detail which caused issues due to extra work in context switch
and task migration is the CID (memory context ID) management. It also
requires to use a task work to consolidate the CID space, which is
executed in the context of an arbitrary task and results in sporadic
uncontrolled exit latencies.
The rewrite addresses this by:
- Removing deprecated and long unsupported functionality
- Moving the related data into dedicated data structures which are
optimized for fast path processing.
- Caching values so actual decisions can be made
- Replacing the current implementation with a optimized inlined variant.
- Separating fast and slow path for architectures which use the generic
entry code, so that only fault and error handling goes into the

Pull rseq updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"A large overhaul of the restartable sequences and CID management:
The recent enablement of RSEQ in glibc resulted in regressions which
are caused by the related overhead. It turned out that the decision to
invoke the exit to user work was not really a decision. More or less
each context switch caused that. There is a long list of small issues
which sums up nicely and results in a 3-4% regression in I/O
benchmarks.
The other detail which caused issues due to extra work in context
switch and task migration is the CID (memory context ID) management.
It also requires to use a task work to consolidate the CID space,
which is executed in the context of an arbitrary task and results in
sporadic uncontrolled exit latencies.
The rewrite addresses this by:
- Removing deprecated and long unsupported functionality
- Moving the related data into dedicated data structures which are
optimized for fast path processing.
- Caching values so actual decisions can be made
- Replacing the current implementation with a optimized inlined
variant.
- Separating fast and slow path for architectures which use the
generic entry code, so that only fault and error handling goes into
the TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME handler.
- Rewriting the CID management so that it becomes mostly invisible in
the context switch path. That moves the work of switching modes
into the fork/exit path, which is a reasonable tradeoff. That work

Patch series "introduce VM_MAYBE_GUARD and make it sticky", v4.
Currently, guard regions are not visible to users except through
/proc/$pid/pagemap, with no explicit visibility at the VMA level.
This makes the feature less useful, as it isn't entirely apparent which
VMAs may have these entries present, especially when performing actions
which walk through memory regions such as those performed by CRIU.
This series addresses this issue by introducing the VM_MAYBE_GUARD flag
which fulfils this role, updating the smaps logic to display an entry for
these.
The semantics of this flag are that a guard region MAY be present if set
(we cannot be sure, as we can't efficiently track whether an
MADV_GUARD_REMOVE finally removes all the guard regions in a VMA) - but if
not set the VMA definitely does NOT have any guard regions present.
It's problematic to establish this flag without further action, because
that means that VMAs with guard regions in them become non-mergeable with
adjacent VMAs for no especially good reason.
To work around this, this series also introduces the concept of 'sticky'
VMA flags - that is flags which:
a. if set in one VMA and not in another still permit those VMAs to be
merged (if otherwise compatible).
b. When they are merged, the resultant VMA must have the flag set.
The VMA logic is updated to propagate these flags correctly.
Additionally, VM_MAYBE_GUARD being an explicit VMA flag allows us to solve
an issue with file-backed guard regions - previously these established an
anon_vma object for file-backed mappings solely to have vma_needs_copy()
correctly propagate guard region mappings to child processes.
We introduce a new flag alias VM_COPY_ON_FORK (which currently only
specifies VM_MAYBE_GUARD) and update vma_needs_copy() to check explicitly
for this flag and to copy page tables if it is present, which resolves
this issue.
Additionally, we add the ability for allow-listed VMA flags to be
atomically writable with only mmap/VMA read locks held.
The only flag we allow so far is VM_MAYBE_GUARD, which we carefully ensure
does not cause any races by being allowed to do so.
This allows us to maintain guard region installation as a read-locked
operation and not endure the overhead of obtaining a write lock here.
Finally we introduce extensive VMA userland tests to assert that the
sticky VMA logic behaves correctly as well as guard region self tests to
assert that smaps visibility is correctly implemented.
This patch (of 9):
Currently, if a user needs to determine if guard regions are present in a
range, they have to scan all VMAs (or have knowledge of which ones might
have guard regions).
Since commit 8e2f2aeb8b ("fs/proc/task_mmu: add guard region bit to
pagemap") and the related commit a516403787 ("fs/proc: extend the
PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl to report guard regions"), users can use either
/proc/$pid/pagemap or the PAGEMAP_SCAN functionality to perform this
operation at a virtual address level.
This is not ideal, and it gives no visibility at a /proc/$pid/smaps level
that guard regions exist in ranges.
This patch remedies the situation by establishing a new VMA flag,
VM_MAYBE_GUARD, to indicate that a VMA may contain guard regions (it is
uncertain because we cannot reasonably determine whether a
MADV_GUARD_REMOVE call has removed all of the guard regions in a VMA, and
additionally VMAs may change across merge/split).
We utilise 0x800 for this flag which makes it available to 32-bit
architectures also, a flag that was previously used by VM_DENYWRITE, which
was removed in commit 8d0920bde5 ("mm: remove VM_DENYWRITE") and hasn't
bee reused yet.
We also update the smaps logic and documentation to identify these VMAs.
Another major use of this functionality is that we can use it to identify
that we ought to copy page tables on fork.
We do not actually implement usage of this flag in mm/madvise.c yet as we
need to allow some VMA flags to be applied atomically under mmap/VMA read
lock in order to avoid the need to acquire a write lock for this purpose.

PMSG_POWEROFF will be used for the PM core to allow differentiating between
a hibernation or shutdown sequence when re-using callbacks for common code.
Hibernation is started by writing a hibernation method (such as 'platform'
'shutdown', or 'reboot') to use into /sys/power/disk and writing 'disk' to
/sys/power/state.
Shutdown is initiated with the reboot() syscall with arguments on whether
to halt the system or power it off.

In bypass mode, tasks are queued on per-CPU bypass DSQs. While this works well
in most cases, there is a failure mode where a BPF scheduler can skew task
placement severely before triggering bypass in highly over-saturated systems.
If most tasks end up concentrated on a few CPUs, those CPUs can accumulate
queues that are too long to drain in a reasonable time, leading to RCU stalls
and hung tasks.
Implement a simple timer-based load balancer that redistributes tasks across
CPUs within each NUMA node. The balancer runs periodically (default 500ms,
tunable via bypass_lb_intv_us module parameter) and moves tasks from overloaded
CPUs to underloaded ones.
When moving tasks between bypass DSQs, the load balancer holds nested DSQ locks
to avoid dropping and reacquiring the donor DSQ lock on each iteration, as
donor DSQs can be very long and highly contended. Add the SCX_ENQ_NESTED flag
and use raw_spin_lock_nested() in dispatch_enqueue() to support this. The load
balancer timer function reads scx_bypass_depth locklessly to check whether
bypass mode is active. Use WRITE_ONCE() when updating scx_bypass_depth to pair
with the READ_ONCE() in the timer function.
This has been tested on a 192 CPU dual socket AMD EPYC machine with ~20k
runnable tasks running scx_cpu0. As scx_cpu0 queues all tasks to CPU0, almost
all tasks end up on CPU0 creating severe imbalance. Without the load balancer,
disabling the scheduler can lead to RCU stalls and hung tasks, taking a very
long time to complete. With the load balancer, disable completes in about a
second.
The load balancing operation can be monitored using the sched_ext_bypass_lb
tracepoint and disabled by setting bypass_lb_intv_us to 0.
v2: Lock both rq and DSQ in bypass_lb_cpu() and use dispatch_dequeue_locked()
to prevent races with dispatch_dequeue() (Andrea Righi).

In the iomap_write_iter(), the iomap buffered write frame does not hold
any locks between querying the inode extent mapping info and performing
page cache writes. As a result, the extent mapping can be changed due to
concurrent I/O in flight. Similarly, in the iomap_writepage_map(), the
write-back process faces a similar problem: concurrent changes can
invalidate the extent mapping before the I/O is submitted.
Therefore, both of these processes must recheck the mapping info after
acquiring the folio lock. To address this, similar to XFS, we propose
introducing an extent sequence number to serve as a validity cookie for
the extent. After commit 24b7a2331f ("ext4: clairfy the rules for
modifying extents"), we can ensure the extent information should always
be processed through the extent status tree, and the extent status tree
is always uptodate under i_rwsem or invalidate_lock or folio lock, so
it's safe to introduce this sequence number. The sequence number will be
increased whenever the extent status tree changes, preparing for the
buffered write iomap conversion.
Besides, this mechanism is also applicable for the moving extents case.
In move_extent_per_page(), it also needs to reacquire data_sem and check
the mapping info again under the folio lock.

This patch series addresses timeout handling issues in the Tegra QSPI driver
that occur under high system load conditions. We've observed that when CPUs
are saturated (due to error injection, RAS firmware activity, or general CPU
contention), QSPI interrupt handlers can be delayed, causing spurious transfer
failures even though the hardware completed the operation successfully.
These changes have been tested in production environments under various high
load scenarios including RAS testing and CPU saturation workloads.
In a multi-network card or container environment, this is needed in order
to differentiate between trace events relating to net devices that exist
in different network namespaces and share the same name.

As of commit 654ced4a13 ("tracing: Introduce tracepoint_is_faultable()")
system call trace events allow faulting in user space memory. Have some of
the system call trace events take advantage of this.
Use the trace_user_fault_read() logic to read the user space buffer from
user space and instead of just saving the pointer to the buffer in the
system call event, also save the string that is passed in.
The syscall event has its nb_args shorten from an int to a short (where
even u8 is plenty big enough) and the freed two bytes are used for
"user_mask". The new "user_mask" field is used to store the index of the
"args" field array that has the address to read from user space. This
value is set to 0 if the system call event does not need to read user
space for a field. This mask can be used to know if the event may fault or
not. Only one bit set in user_mask is supported at this time.
This allows the output to look like this:
sys_access(filename: 0x7f8c55368470 "/etc/ld.so.preload", mode: 4)
sys_execve(filename: 0x564ebcf5a6b8 "/usr/bin/emacs", argv: 0x7fff357c0300, envp: 0x564ebc4a4820)

The spi subsystem has tracing, which is very convenient when debugging
problems. Add tracing for spi-mem too so that accesses that skip the spi
subsystem can still be seen.
The format is roughly based on the existing spi tracing. We don't bother
tracing the op's address because the tracing happens while the memory is
locked, so there can be no confusion about the matching of start and
stop. The conversion of cmd/addr/dummy to an array is directly analogous
to the conversion in the latter half of spi_mem_exec_op.

(Petr Tesarik)"

dma-mapping: fix direction in dma_alloc direction traces
kmsan: fix kmsan_handle_dma() to avoid false positives
* Add support for host userspace mapping of guest_memfd-backed memory for VM
types that do NOT use support KVM_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTE_PRIVATE (which isn't
precisely the same thing as CoCo VMs, since x86's SEV-MEM and SEV-ES have
no way to detect private vs. shared).
This lays the groundwork for removal of guest memory from the kernel direct
map, as well as for limited mmap() for guest_memfd-backed memory.
For more information see:

(mmap support)
ARM:
* Add support for FF-A 1.2 as the secure memory conduit for pKVM,
allowing more registers to be used as part of the message payload.
* Change the way pKVM allocates its VM handles, making sure that the
privileged hypervisor is never tricked into using uninitialised
data.
* Speed up MMIO range registration by avoiding unnecessary RCU
synchronisation, which results in VMs starting much quicker.
* Add the dump of the instruction stream when panic-ing in the EL2
payload, just like the rest of the kernel has always done. This will
hopefully help debugging non-VHE setups.
* Add 52bit PA support to the stage-1 page-table walker, and make use
of it to populate the fault level reported to the guest on failing
to translate a stage-1 walk.
* Add NV support to the GICv3-on-GICv5 emulation code, ensuring
feature parity for guests, irrespective of the host platform.
* Fix some really ugly architecture problems when dealing with debug
in a nested VM. This has some bad performance impacts, but is at
least correct.
* Add enough infrastructure to be able to disable EL2 features and
give effective values to the EL2 control registers. This then allows
a bunch of features to be turned off, which helps cross-host
migration.
* Large rework of the selftest infrastructure to allow most tests to
transparently run at EL2. This is the first step towards enabling
NV testing.
* Various fixes and improvements all over the map, including one BE
fix, just in time for the removal of the feature.
LoongArch:
* Detect page table walk feature on new hardware
* Add sign extension with kernel MMIO/IOCSR emulation
* Improve in-kernel IPI emulation
* Improve in-kernel PCH-PIC emulation
* Move kvm_iocsr tracepoint out of generic code
RISC-V:
* Added SBI FWFT extension for Guest/VM with misaligned delegation and
pointer masking PMLEN features
* Added ONE_REG interface for SBI FWFT extension
* Added Zicbop and bfloat16 extensions for Guest/VM
* Enabled more common KVM selftests for RISC-V
* Added SBI v3.0 PMU enhancements in KVM and perf driver
s390:
* Improve interrupt cpu for wakeup, in particular the heuristic to decide
which vCPU to deliver a floating interrupt to.
* Clear the PTE when discarding a swapped page because of CMMA; this
bug was introduced in 6.16 when refactoring gmap code.
x86 selftests:
* Add #DE coverage in the fastops test (the only exception that's guest-
triggerable in fastop-emulated instructions).
* Fix PMU selftests errors encountered on Granite Rapids (GNR), Sierra
Forest (SRF) and Clearwater Forest (CWF).
* Minor cleanups and improvements
x86 (guest side):
* For the legacy PCI hole (memory between TOLUD and 4GiB) to UC when
overriding guest MTRR for TDX/SNP to fix an issue where ACPI auto-mapping
could map devices as WB and prevent the device drivers from mapping their
devices with UC/UC-.
* Make kvm_async_pf_task_wake() a local static helper and remove its
export.
* Use native qspinlocks when running in a VM with dedicated vCPU=>pCPU
bindings even when PV_UNHALT is unsupported.
Generic:
* Remove a redundant __GFP_NOWARN from kvm_setup_async_pf() as __GFP_NOWARN is
now included in GFP_NOWAIT.
