We already have a generic implementation of alloc/free up to P4D level, as
well as pgd_free(). Let's finish the work and add a generic PGD-level
alloc helper as well.
Unlike at lower levels, almost all architectures need some specific magic
at PGD level (typically initialising PGD entries), so introducing a
generic pgd_alloc() isn't worth it. Instead we introduce two new helpers,
__pgd_alloc() and __pgd_free(), and make use of them in the arch-specific
pgd_alloc() and pgd_free() wherever possible. To accommodate as many arch
as possible, __pgd_alloc() takes a page allocation order.
Because pagetable_alloc() allocates zeroed pages, explicit zeroing in
pgd_alloc() becomes redundant and we can get rid of it. Some trivial
implementations of pgd_free() also become unnecessary once __pgd_alloc()
is used; remove them.
Another small improvement is consistent accounting of PGD pages by using
GFP_PGTABLE_{USER,KERNEL} as appropriate.
Not all PGD allocations can be handled by the generic helpers. In
particular, multiple architectures allocate PGDs from a kmem_cache, and
those PGDs may not be page-sized.

The implementation of pmd_{alloc_one,free} on parisc requires a non-zero
allocation order, but is completely standard aside from that. Let's reuse
the generic implementation of pmd_alloc_one(). Explicit zeroing is not
needed as GFP_PGTABLE_KERNEL includes __GFP_ZERO. The generic pmd_free()
can handle higher allocation orders so we don't need to define our own.
These changes ensure that pagetable_pmd_[cd]tor are called, improving the
accounting of page table pages.

Recently new functions for IO memcpy and IO memset were added in
libs/iomem_copy.c. So, remove the arch specific implementations, to fall
back to the generic ones which do exactly the same. Keep memcpy_fromio
for now, because it's slight more optimized by doing 'u16' accesses if
the buffer is aligned this way.

The most significant set of changes is the per netns RTNL. The new
behavior is disabled by default, regression risk should be contained.
Notably the new config knob PTP_1588_CLOCK_VMCLOCK will inherit its
default value from PTP_1588_CLOCK_KVM, as the first is intended to be
a more reliable replacement for the latter.
Core
----
- Started a very large, in-progress, effort to make the RTNL lock
scope per network-namespace, thus reducing the lock contention
significantly in the containerized use-case, comprising:
- RCU-ified some relevant slices of the FIB control path
- introduce basic per netns locking helpers
- namespacified the IPv4 address hash table
- remove rtnl_register{,_module}() in favour of rtnl_register_many()
- refactor rtnl_{new,del,set}link() moving as much validation as
possible out of RTNL lock
- convert all phonet doit() and dumpit() handlers to RCU
- convert IPv4 addresses manipulation to per-netns RTNL
- convert virtual interface creation to per-netns RTNL
the per-netns lock infra is guarded by the CONFIG_DEBUG_NET_SMALL_RTNL
knob, disabled by default ad interim.
- Introduce NAPI suspension, to efficiently switching between busy
polling (NAPI processing suspended) and normal processing.
- Migrate the IPv4 routing input, output and control path from direct
ToS usage to DSCP macros. This is a work in progress to make ECN
handling consistent and reliable.
- Add drop reasons support to the IPv4 rotue input path, allowing
better introspection in case of packets drop.
- Make FIB seqnum lockless, dropping RTNL protection for read
access.
- Make inet{,v6} addresses hashing less predicable.
- Allow providing timestamp OPT_ID via cmsg, to correlate TX packets
and timestamps
Things we sprinkled into general kernel code
--------------------------------------------
- Add small file operations for debugfs, to reduce the struct ops size.
- Refactoring and optimization for the implementation of page_frag API,
This is a preparatory work to consolidate the page_frag
implementation.
Netfilter
---------
- Optimize set element transactions to reduce memory consumption
- Extended netlink error reporting for attribute parser failure.
- Make legacy xtables configs user selectable, giving users
the option to configure iptables without enabling any other config.
- Address a lot of false-positive RCU issues, pointed by recent
CI improvements.
BPF
---
- Put xsk sockets on a struct diet and add various cleanups. Overall,
this helps to bump performance by 12% for some workloads.
- Extend BPF selftests to increase coverage of XDP features in
combination with BPF cpumap.
- Optimize and homogenize bpf_csum_diff helper for all archs and also
add a batch of new BPF selftests for it.
- Extend netkit with an option to delegate skb->{mark,priority}
scrubbing to its BPF program.
- Make the bpf_get_netns_cookie() helper available also to tc(x) BPF
programs.
Protocols
---------
- Introduces 4-tuple hash for connected udp sockets, speeding-up
significantly connected sockets lookup.
- Add a fastpath for some TCP timers that usually expires after close,
the socket lock contention.
- Add inbound and outbound xfrm state caches to speed up state lookups.
- Avoid sending MPTCP advertisements on stale subflows, reducing
risks on loosing them.
- Make neighbours table flushing more scalable, maintaining per device
neigh lists.
Driver API
----------
- Introduce a unified interface to configure transmission H/W shaping,
and expose it to user-space via generic-netlink.
- Add support for per-NAPI config via netlink. This makes napi
configuration persistent across queues removal and re-creation.
Requires driver updates, currently supported drivers are:
nVidia/Mellanox mlx4 and mlx5, Broadcom brcm and Intel ice.
- Add ethtool support for writing SFP / PHY firmware blocks.
- Track RSS context allocation from ethtool core.
- Implement support for mirroring to DSA CPU port, via TC mirror
offload.
- Consolidate FDB updates notification, to avoid duplicates on
device-specific entries.
- Expose DPLL clock quality level to the user-space.
- Support master-slave PHY config via device tree.
Tests and tooling
-----------------
- forwarding: introduce deferred commands, to simplify
the cleanup phase

introspection.

These are a number of unrelated cleanups, generally simplifying the
architecture specific header files:
- A series from Al Viro simplifies asm/vga.h, after it turns out that
most of it can be generalized.
- A series from Julian Vetter adds a common version of
memcpy_{to,from}io() and memset_io() and changes most architectures
to use that instead of their own implementation
- A series from Niklas Schnelle concludes his work to make PC
style inb()/outb() optional
- Nicolas Pitre contributes improvements for the generic do_div()
helper
- Christoph Hellwig adds a generic version of page_to_phys()
and phys_to_page(), replacing the slightly different architecture
specific definitions.
- Uwe Kleine-Koenig has a minor cleanup for ioctl definitions

The VDSO data page handling is architecture specific for historical
reasons, but there is no real technical reason to do so.
Aside of that VDSO data has become a dump ground for various mechanisms
and fail to provide a clear separation of the functionalities.
Clean this up by:
* consolidating the VDSO page data by getting rid of architecture
specific warts especially in x86 and PowerPC.
* removing the last includes of header files which are pulling in other
headers outside of the VDSO namespace.
* seperating timekeeping and other VDSO data accordingly.
Further consolidation of the VDSO page handling is done in subsequent
changes scheduled for the next merge window.
This also lays the ground for expanding the VDSO time getters for
independent PTP clocks in a generic way without making every architecture
add support seperately.

Pull vdso data page handling updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"First steps of consolidating the VDSO data page handling.
The VDSO data page handling is architecture specific for historical
reasons, but there is no real technical reason to do so.
Aside of that VDSO data has become a dump ground for various
mechanisms and fail to provide a clear separation of the
functionalities.
Clean this up by:
- consolidating the VDSO page data by getting rid of architecture
specific warts especially in x86 and PowerPC.
- removing the last includes of header files which are pulling in
other headers outside of the VDSO namespace.
- seperating timekeeping and other VDSO data accordingly.
Further consolidation of the VDSO page handling is done in subsequent
changes scheduled for the next merge window.
This also lays the ground for expanding the VDSO time getters for
independent PTP clocks in a generic way without making every
architecture add support seperately"

Implement a new lightweight guard page feature, that is regions of
userland virtual memory that, when accessed, cause a fatal signal to
arise.
Currently users must establish PROT_NONE ranges to achieve this.
However this is very costly memory-wise - we need a VMA for each and every
one of these regions AND they become unmergeable with surrounding VMAs.
In addition repeated mmap() calls require repeated kernel context switches
and contention of the mmap lock to install these ranges, potentially also
having to unmap memory if installed over existing ranges.
The lightweight guard approach eliminates the VMA cost altogether - rather
than establishing a PROT_NONE VMA, it operates at the level of page table
entries - establishing PTE markers such that accesses to them cause a
fault followed by a SIGSGEV signal being raised.
This is achieved through the PTE marker mechanism, which we have already
extended to provide PTE_MARKER_GUARD, which we installed via the generic
page walking logic which we have extended for this purpose.
These guard ranges are established with MADV_GUARD_INSTALL. If the range
in which they are installed contain any existing mappings, they will be
zapped, i.e. free the range and unmap memory (thus mimicking the
behaviour of MADV_DONTNEED in this respect).
Any existing guard entries will be left untouched. There is therefore no
nesting of guarded pages.
Guarded ranges are NOT cleared by MADV_DONTNEED nor MADV_FREE (in both
instances the memory range may be reused at which point a user would
expect guards to still be in place), but they are cleared via
MADV_GUARD_REMOVE, process teardown or unmapping of memory ranges.
The guard property can be removed from ranges via MADV_GUARD_REMOVE. The
ranges over which this is applied, should they contain non-guard entries,
will be untouched, with only guard entries being cleared.
We permit this operation on anonymous memory only, and only VMAs which are
non-special, non-huge and not mlock()'d (if we permitted this we'd have to
drop locked pages which would be rather counterintuitive).
Racing page faults can cause repeated attempts to install guard pages that
are interrupted, result in a zap, and this process can end up being
repeated. If this happens more than would be expected in normal
operation, we rescind locks and retry the whole thing, which avoids lock
contention in this scenario.

Currently MTE is permitted in two circumstances (desiring to use MTE
having been specified by the VM_MTE flag) - where MAP_ANONYMOUS is
specified, as checked by arch_calc_vm_flag_bits() and actualised by
setting the VM_MTE_ALLOWED flag, or if the file backing the mapping is
shmem, in which case we set VM_MTE_ALLOWED in shmem_mmap() when the mmap
hook is activated in mmap_region().
The function that checks that, if VM_MTE is set, VM_MTE_ALLOWED is also
set is the arm64 implementation of arch_validate_flags().
Unfortunately, we intend to refactor mmap_region() to perform this check
earlier, meaning that in the case of a shmem backing we will not have
invoked shmem_mmap() yet, causing the mapping to fail spuriously.
It is inappropriate to set this architecture-specific flag in general mm
code anyway, so a sensible resolution of this issue is to instead move the
check somewhere else.
We resolve this by setting VM_MTE_ALLOWED much earlier in do_mmap(), via
the arch_calc_vm_flag_bits() call.
This is an appropriate place to do this as we already check for the
MAP_ANONYMOUS case here, and the shmem file case is simply a variant of
the same idea - we permit RAM-backed memory.
This requires a modification to the arch_calc_vm_flag_bits() signature to
pass in a pointer to the struct file associated with the mapping, however
this is not too egregious as this is only used by two architectures anyway
- arm64 and parisc.
So this patch performs this adjustment and removes the unnecessary
assignment of VM_MTE_ALLOWED in shmem_mmap().

SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_ID socket option flag gives a way to correlate TX
timestamps and packets sent via socket. Unfortunately, there is no way
to reliably predict socket timestamp ID value in case of error returned
by sendmsg. For UDP sockets it's impossible because of lockless
nature of UDP transmit, several threads may send packets in parallel. In
case of RAW sockets MSG_MORE option makes things complicated. More
details are in the conversation [1].
This patch adds new control message type to give user-space
software an opportunity to control the mapping between packets and
values by providing ID with each sendmsg for UDP sockets.
The documentation is also added in this patch.

- Fix the userspace stack position and size when the ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE

- On other architectures mmap(MAP_GROWSDOWN | MAP_STACK) creates a
downward-growing stack. On parisc mmap(MAP_STACK) is now sufficient
to create an upward-growing stack

In tcp_recvmsg_locked(), detect if the skb being received by the user
is a devmem skb. In this case - if the user provided the MSG_SOCK_DEVMEM
flag - pass it to tcp_recvmsg_devmem() for custom handling.
tcp_recvmsg_devmem() copies any data in the skb header to the linear
buffer, and returns a cmsg to the user indicating the number of bytes
returned in the linear buffer.
tcp_recvmsg_devmem() then loops over the unaccessible devmem skb frags,
and returns to the user a cmsg_devmem indicating the location of the
data in the dmabuf device memory. cmsg_devmem contains this information:
1. the offset into the dmabuf where the payload starts. 'frag_offset'.
2. the size of the frag. 'frag_size'.
3. an opaque token 'frag_token' to return to the kernel when the buffer
is to be released.
The pages awaiting freeing are stored in the newly added
sk->sk_user_frags, and each page passed to userspace is get_page()'d.
This reference is dropped once the userspace indicates that it is
done reading this page. All pages are released when the socket is
destroyed.

ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN was defined as 16 - this is too small - it may be
possible that two unrelated 16-byte allocations share a cache line. If
one of these allocations is written using DMA and the other is written
using cached write, the value that was written with DMA may be
corrupted.
This commit changes ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN to be 128 on PA20 and 32 on PA1.1 -
that's the largest possible cache line size.
As different parisc microarchitectures have different cache line size, we
define arch_slab_minalign(), cache_line_size() and
dma_get_cache_alignment() so that the kernel may tune slab cache
parameters dynamically, based on the detected cache line size.

When clone3() was introduced, it was not obvious how each architecture
deals with setting up the stack and keeping the register contents in
a fork()-like system call, so this was left for the architecture
maintainers to implement, with __ARCH_WANT_SYS_CLONE3 defined by those
that already implement it.
Five years later, we still have a few architectures left that are missing
clone3(), and the macro keeps getting in the way as it's fundamentally
different from all the other __ARCH_WANT_SYS_* macros that are meant
to provide backwards-compatibility with applications using older
syscalls that are no longer provided by default.
Address this by reversing the polarity of the macro, adding an
__ARCH_BROKEN_SYS_CLONE3 macro to all architectures that don't
already provide the syscall, and remove __ARCH_WANT_SYS_CLONE3
from all the other ones.

In the match() callback, the struct device_driver * should not be
changed, so change the function callback to be a const *. This is one
step of many towards making the driver core safe to have struct
device_driver in read-only memory.
Because the match() callback is in all busses, all busses are modified
to handle this properly. This does entail switching some container_of()
calls to container_of_const() to properly handle the constant *.
For some busses, like PCI and USB and HV, the const * is cast away in
the match callback as those busses do want to modify those structures at
this point in time (they have a local lock in the driver structure.)
That will have to be changed in the future if they wish to have their
struct device * in read-only-memory.

PA-RISC systems with PA8800 and PA8900 processors have had problems
with random segmentation faults for many years. Systems with earlier
processors are much more stable.
Systems with PA8800 and PA8900 processors have a large L2 cache which
needs per page flushing for decent performance when a large range is
flushed. The combined cache in these systems is also more sensitive to
non-equivalent aliases than the caches in earlier systems.
The majority of random segmentation faults that I have looked at
appear to be memory corruption in memory allocated using mmap and
malloc.
My first attempt at fixing the random faults didn't work. On
reviewing the cache code, I realized that there were two issues
which the existing code didn't handle correctly. Both relate
to cache move-in. Another issue is that the present bit in PTEs
is racy.
1) PA-RISC caches have a mind of their own and they can speculatively
load data and instructions for a page as long as there is a entry in
the TLB for the page which allows move-in. TLBs are local to each
CPU. Thus, the TLB entry for a page must be purged before flushing
the page. This is particularly important on SMP systems.
In some of the flush routines, the flush routine would be called
and then the TLB entry would be purged. This was because the flush
routine needed the TLB entry to do the flush.
2) My initial approach to trying the fix the random faults was to
try and use flush_cache_page_if_present for all flush operations.
This actually made things worse and led to a couple of hardware
lockups. It finally dawned on me that some lines weren't being
flushed because the pte check code was racy. This resulted in
random inequivalent mappings to physical pages.
The __flush_cache_page tmpalias flush sets up its own TLB entry
and it doesn't need the existing TLB entry. As long as we can find
the pte pointer for the vm page, we can get the pfn and physical
address of the page. We can also purge the TLB entry for the page
before doing the flush. Further, __flush_cache_page uses a special
TLB entry that inhibits cache move-in.
When switching page mappings, we need to ensure that lines are
removed from the cache. It is not sufficient to just flush the
lines to memory as they may come back.
This made it clear that we needed to implement all the required
flush operations using tmpalias routines. This includes flushes
for user and kernel pages.
After modifying the code to use tmpalias flushes, it became clear
that the random segmentation faults were not fully resolved. The
frequency of faults was worse on systems with a 64 MB L2 (PA8900)
and systems with more CPUs (rp4440).
The warning that I added to flush_cache_page_if_present to detect
pages that couldn't be flushed triggered frequently on some systems.
Helge and I looked at the pages that couldn't be flushed and found
that the PTE was either cleared or for a swap page. Ignoring pages
that were swapped out seemed okay but pages with cleared PTEs seemed
problematic.
I looked at routines related to pte_clear and noticed ptep_clear_flush.
The default implementation just flushes the TLB entry. However, it was
obvious that on parisc we need to flush the cache page as well. If
we don't flush the cache page, stale lines will be left in the cache
and cause random corruption. Once a PTE is cleared, there is no way
to find the physical address associated with the PTE and flush the
associated page at a later time.
I implemented an updated change with a parisc specific version of
ptep_clear_flush. It fixed the random data corruption on Helge's rp4440
and rp3440, as well as on my c8000.
At this point, I realized that I could restore the code where we only
flush in flush_cache_page_if_present if the page has been accessed.
However, for this, we also need to flush the cache when the accessed
bit is cleared in ptep_clear_flush_young to keep things synchronized.
The default implementation only flushes the TLB entry.
Other changes in this version are:
1) Implement parisc specific version of ptep_get. It's identical to
default but needed in arch/parisc/include/asm/pgtable.h.
2) Revise parisc implementation of ptep_test_and_clear_young to use
ptep_get (READ_ONCE).
3) Drop parisc implementation of ptep_get_and_clear. We can use default.
4) Revise flush_kernel_vmap_range and invalidate_kernel_vmap_range to
use full data cache flush.
5) Move flush_cache_vmap and flush_cache_vunmap to cache.c. Handle
VM_IOREMAP case in flush_cache_vmap.
At this time, I don't know whether it is better to always flush when
the PTE present bit is set or when both the accessed and present bits
are set. The later saves flushing pages that haven't been accessed,
but we need to flush in ptep_clear_flush_young. It also needs a page
table lookup to find the PTE pointer. The lpa instruction only needs
a page table lookup when the PTE entry isn't in the TLB.
We don't atomically handle setting and clearing the _PAGE_ACCESSED bit.
If we miss an update, we may miss a flush and the cache may get corrupted.
Whether the current code is effectively atomic depends on process control.
When CONFIG_FLUSH_PAGE_ACCESSED is set to zero, the page will eventually
be flushed when the PTE is cleared or in flush_cache_page_if_present. The
_PAGE_ACCESSED bit is not used, so the problem is avoided.
The flush method can be selected using the CONFIG_FLUSH_PAGE_ACCESSED
define in cache.c. The default is 0. I didn't see a large difference
in performance.

The per-architecture fbdev code has no dependencies on fbdev and can
be used for any video-related subsystem. Rename the files to 'video'.
Use video-sti.c on parisc as the source file depends on CONFIG_STI_CORE.
On arc, arm, arm64, sh, and um the asm header file is an empty wrapper
around the file in asm-generic. Let Kbuild generate the file. The build
system does this automatically. Only um needs to generate video.h
explicitly, so that it overrides the host architecture's header. The
latter would otherwise interfere with the build.
Further update all includes statements, include guards, and Makefiles.
Also update a few strings and comments to refer to video instead of
fbdev.

Patch series "ARM: prctl: Reject PR_SET_MDWE where not supported".
I noticed after a recent kernel update that my ARM926 system started
segfaulting on any execve() after calling prctl(PR_SET_MDWE). After some
investigation it appears that ARMv5 is incapable of providing the
appropriate protections for MDWE, since any readable memory is also
implicitly executable.
The prctl_set_mdwe() function already had some special-case logic added
disabling it on PARISC (commit 793838138c, "prctl: Disable
prctl(PR_SET_MDWE) on parisc"); this patch series (1) generalizes that
check to use an arch_*() function, and (2) adds a corresponding override
for ARM to disable MDWE on pre-ARMv6 CPUs.
With the series applied, prctl(PR_SET_MDWE) is rejected on ARMv5 and
subsequent execve() calls (as well as mmap(PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE)) can
succeed instead of unconditionally failing; on ARMv6 the prctl works as it
did previously.
[0] https://lore.kernel.org/all/2023112456-linked-nape-bf19@gregkh/
This patch (of 2):
There exist systems other than PARISC where MDWE may not be feasible to
support; rather than cluttering up the generic code with additional
arch-specific logic let's add a generic function for checking MDWE support
and allow each arch to override it as needed.

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.

IPv6 checksum tests with unaligned addresses on 64-bit builds result
in unexpected failures.
Expected expected == csum_result, but
expected == 46591 (0xb5ff)
csum_result == 46381 (0xb52d)
with alignment offset 1
Oddly enough, the problem disappeared after adding test code into
the beginning of csum_ipv6_magic().
As it turns out, the 'sum' parameter of csum_ipv6_magic() is declared as
__wsum, which is a 32-bit variable. However, it is treated as 64-bit
variable in the 64-bit assembler code. Tests showed that the upper 32 bit
of the register used to pass the variable are _not_ cleared when entering
the function. This can result in checksum calculation errors.
Clearing the upper 32 bit of 'sum' as first operation in the assembler
code fixes the problem.

hppa 64-bit systems calculates the IPv6 checksum using 64-bit add
operations. The last add folds protocol and length fields into the 64-bit
result. While unlikely, this operation can overflow. The overflow can be
triggered with a code sequence such as the following.
/* try to trigger massive overflows */
memset(tmp_buf, 0xff, sizeof(struct in6_addr));
csum_result = csum_ipv6_magic((struct in6_addr *)tmp_buf,
(struct in6_addr *)tmp_buf,
0xffff, 0xff, 0xffffffff);
Fix the problem by adding any overflows from the final add operation into
the calculated checksum. Fortunately, we can do this without additional
cost by replacing the add operation used to fold the checksum into 32 bit
with "add,dc" to add in the missing carry.

Calculating the IPv6 checksum on 32-bit systems missed overflows when
adding the proto+len fields into the checksum. This results in the
following unit test failure.
# test_csum_ipv6_magic: ASSERTION FAILED at lib/checksum_kunit.c:506
Expected ( u64)csum_result == ( u64)expected, but
( u64)csum_result == 46722 (0xb682)
( u64)expected == 46721 (0xb681)
not ok 5 test_csum_ipv6_magic
This is probably rarely seen in the real world because proto+len are
usually small values which will rarely result in overflows when calculating
the checksum. However, the unit test code uses large values for the length
field, causing the test to fail.
Fix the problem by adding the missing carry into the final checksum.

IP checksum unit tests report the following error when run on hppa/hppa64.
# test_ip_fast_csum: ASSERTION FAILED at lib/checksum_kunit.c:463
Expected ( u64)csum_result == ( u64)expected, but
( u64)csum_result == 33754 (0x83da)
( u64)expected == 10946 (0x2ac2)
not ok 4 test_ip_fast_csum
0x83da is the expected result if the IP header length is 20 bytes. 0x2ac2
is the expected result if the IP header length is 24 bytes. The test fails
with an IP header length of 24 bytes. It appears that ip_fast_csum()
always returns the checksum for a 20-byte header, no matter how long
the header actually is.
Code analysis shows a suspicious assembler sequence in ip_fast_csum().
" addc %0, %3, %0\n"
"1: ldws,ma 4(%1), %3\n"
" addib,< 0, %2, 1b\n" <---
While my understanding of HPPA assembler is limited, it does not seem
to make much sense to subtract 0 from a register and to expect the result
to ever be negative. Subtracting 1 from the length parameter makes more
sense. On top of that, the operation should be repeated if and only if
the result is still > 0, so change the suspicious instruction to
" addib,> -1, %2, 1b\n"
The IP checksum unit test passes after this change.
