powerpc/static_call: Implement inline static calls
Implement inline static calls:
- Put a 'bl' to the destination function ('b' if tail call)
- Put a 'nop' when the destination function is NULL ('blr' if tail call)
- Put a 'li r3,0' when the destination is the RET0 function and not
a tail call.
If the destination is too far (over the 32Mb limit), go via the
trampoline.

Merge tag 'ftrace-v6.14' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace
Pull ftrace updates from Steven Rostedt: - Have fprobes built on top of function graph infrastructure The fprobe logic is an optimized kprobe that uses ftrace to attach to functions when a probe is needed at the start or end of the function. The fprobe and kretprobe logic implements a similar method as the function graph tracer to trace the end of the function. That is to hijack the return address and jump to a trampoline to do the trace when the function exits. To do this, a shadow stack needs to be created to store the original return address. Fprobes and function graph do this slightly differently. Fprobes (and kretprobes) has slots per callsite that are reserved to save the return address. This is fine when just a few points are traced. But users of fprobes, such as BPF programs, are starting to add many more locations, and this method does not scale. The function graph tracer was created to trace all functions in the kernel. In order to do this, when function graph tracing is started, every task gets its own shadow stack to hold the return address that is going to be traced. The function graph tracer has been updated to allow multiple users to use its infrastructure. Now have fprobes be one of those users. This will also allow for the fprobe and kretprobe methods to trace the return address to become obsolete. With new technologies like CFI that need to know about these methods of hijacking the return address, going toward a solution that has only one method of doing this will make the kernel less complex. - Cleanup with guard() and free() helpers There were several places in the code that had a lot of "goto out" in the error paths to either unlock a lock or free some memory that was allocated. But this is error prone. Convert the code over to use the guard() and free() helpers that let the compiler unlock locks or free memory when the function exits. - Remove disabling of interrupts in the function graph tracer When function graph tracer was first introduced, it could race with interrupts and NMIs. To prevent that race, it would disable interrupts and not trace NMIs. But the code has changed to allow NMIs and also interrupts. This change was done a long time ago, but the disabling of interrupts was never removed. Remove the disabling of interrupts in the function graph tracer is it is not needed. This greatly improves its performance. - Allow the :mod: command to enable tracing module functions on the kernel command line. The function tracer already has a way to enable functions to be traced in modules by writing ":mod:<module>" into set_ftrace_filter. That will enable either all the functions for the module if it is loaded, or if it is not, it will cache that command, and when the module is loaded that matches <module>, its functions will be enabled. This also allows init functions to be traced. But currently events do not have that feature. Because enabling function tracing can be done very early at boot up (before scheduling is enabled), the commands that can be done when function tracing is started is limited. Having the ":mod:" command to trace module functions as they are loaded is very useful. Update the kernel command line function filtering to allow it. * tag 'ftrace-v6.14' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace: (26 commits) ftrace: Implement :mod: cache filtering on kernel command line tracing: Adopt __free() and guard() for trace_fprobe.c bpf: Use ftrace_get_symaddr() for kprobe_multi probes ftrace: Add ftrace_get_symaddr to convert fentry_ip to symaddr Documentation: probes: Update fprobe on function-graph tracer selftests/ftrace: Add a test case for repeating register/unregister fprobe selftests: ftrace: Remove obsolate maxactive syntax check tracing/fprobe: Remove nr_maxactive from fprobe fprobe: Add fprobe_header encoding feature fprobe: Rewrite fprobe on function-graph tracer s390/tracing: Enable HAVE_FTRACE_GRAPH_FUNC ftrace: Add CONFIG_HAVE_FTRACE_GRAPH_FUNC bpf: Enable kprobe_multi feature if CONFIG_FPROBE is enabled tracing/fprobe: Enable fprobe events with CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS tracing: Add ftrace_fill_perf_regs() for perf event tracing: Add ftrace_partial_regs() for converting ftrace_regs to pt_regs fprobe: Use ftrace_regs in fprobe exit handler fprobe: Use ftrace_regs in fprobe entry handler fgraph: Pass ftrace_regs to retfunc fgraph: Replace fgraph_ret_regs with ftrace_regs ... |

powerpc: Add preempt lazy support
Define preempt lazy bit for Powerpc. Use bit 9 which is free and within 16 bit range of NEED_RESCHED, so compiler can issue single andi. Since Powerpc doesn't use the generic entry/exit, add lazy check at exit to user. CONFIG_PREEMPTION is defined for lazy/full/rt so use it for return to kernel. Ran a few benchmarks and db workload on Power10. Performance is close to preempt=none/voluntary. Since Powerpc systems can have large core count and large memory, preempt lazy is going to be helpful in avoiding soft lockup issues.

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"

crash, powerpc: default to CRASH_DUMP=n on PPC_BOOK3S_32
Fixes boot failures on 6.9 on PPC_BOOK3S_32 machines using Open Firmware.
On these machines, the kernel refuses to boot from non-zero
PHYSICAL_START, which occurs when CRASH_DUMP is on.
Since most PPC_BOOK3S_32 machines boot via Open Firmware, it should
default to off for them. Users booting via some other mechanism can still
turn it on explicitly.
Does not change the default on any other architectures for the
time being.

powerpc/ftrace: Add support for DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_DIRECT_CALLS
Add support for DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_DIRECT_CALLS similar to the arm64 implementation. ftrace direct calls allow custom trampolines to be called into directly from function ftrace call sites, bypassing the ftrace trampoline completely. This functionality is currently utilized by BPF trampolines to hook into kernel function entries. Since we have limited relative branch range, we support ftrace direct calls through support for DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_CALL_OPS. In this approach, ftrace trampoline is not entirely bypassed. Rather, it is re-purposed into a stub that reads direct_call field from the associated ftrace_ops structure and branches into that, if it is not NULL. For this, it is sufficient if we can ensure that the ftrace trampoline is reachable from all traceable functions. When multiple ftrace_ops are associated with a call site, we utilize a call back to set pt_regs->orig_gpr3 that can then be tested on the return path from the ftrace trampoline to branch into the direct caller.

powerpc/ftrace: Add support for DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_CALL_OPS
Implement support for DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_CALL_OPS similar to the arm64 implementation. This works by patching-in a pointer to an associated ftrace_ops structure before each traceable function. If multiple ftrace_ops are associated with a call site, then a special ftrace_list_ops is used to enable iterating over all the registered ftrace_ops. If no ftrace_ops are associated with a call site, then a special ftrace_nop_ops structure is used to render the ftrace call as a no-op. ftrace trampoline can then read the associated ftrace_ops for a call site by loading from an offset from the LR, and branch directly to the associated function. The primary advantage with this approach is that we don't have to iterate over all the registered ftrace_ops for call sites that have a single ftrace_ops registered. This is the equivalent of implementing support for dynamic ftrace trampolines, which set up a special ftrace trampoline for each registered ftrace_ops and have individual call sites branch into those directly. A secondary advantage is that this gives us a way to add support for direct ftrace callers without having to resort to using stubs. The address of the direct call trampoline can be loaded from the ftrace_ops structure. To support this, we reserve a nop before each function on 32-bit powerpc. For 64-bit powerpc, two nops are reserved before each out-of-line stub. During ftrace activation, we update this location with the associated ftrace_ops pointer. Then, on ftrace entry, we load from this location and call into ftrace_ops->func(). For 64-bit powerpc, we ensure that the out-of-line stub area is doubleword aligned so that ftrace_ops address can be updated atomically.

powerpc64/ftrace: Support .text larger than 32MB with out-of-line stubs
We are restricted to a .text size of ~32MB when using out-of-line function profile sequence. Allow this to be extended up to the previous limit of ~64MB by reserving space in the middle of .text. A new config option CONFIG_PPC_FTRACE_OUT_OF_LINE_NUM_RESERVE is introduced to specify the number of function stubs that are reserved in .text. On boot, ftrace utilizes stubs from this area first before using the stub area at the end of .text. A ppc64le defconfig has ~44k functions that can be traced. A more conservative value of 32k functions is chosen as the default value of PPC_FTRACE_OUT_OF_LINE_NUM_RESERVE so that we do not allot more space than necessary by default. If building a kernel that only has 32k trace-able functions, we won't allot any more space at the end of .text during the pass on vmlinux.o. Otherwise, only the remaining functions get space for stubs at the end of .text. This default value should help cover a .text size of ~48MB in total (including space reserved at the end of .text which can cover up to 32MB), which should be sufficient for most common builds. For a very small kernel build, this can be set to 0. Or, this can be bumped up to a larger value to support vmlinux .text size up to ~64MB.

Given the sequence, we cannot return from ftrace_caller with 'blr' as we need to keep LR and r0 intact. This results in link stack (return address predictor) imbalance when ftrace is enabled. To address that, we would like to use a three instruction sequence: mflr r0 bl ftrace_caller mtlr r0 Further more, to support DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_CALL_OPS, we need to reserve two instruction slots before the function. This results in a total of five instruction slots to be reserved for ftrace use on each function that is traced. Move the function profile sequence out-of-line to minimize its impact. To do this, we reserve a single nop at function entry using -fpatchable-function-entry=1 and add a pass on vmlinux.o to determine the total number of functions that can be traced. This is then used to generate a .S file reserving the appropriate amount of space for use as ftrace stubs, which is built and linked into vmlinux. On bootup, the stub space is split into separate stubs per function and populated with the proper instruction sequence. A pointer to the associated stub is maintained in dyn_arch_ftrace. For modules, space for ftrace stubs is reserved from the generic module stub space. This is restricted to and enabled by default only on 64-bit powerpc, though there are some changes to accommodate 32-bit powerpc. This is done so that 32-bit powerpc could choose to opt into this based on further tests and benchmarks. As an example, after this patch, kernel functions will have a single nop at function entry: <kernel_clone>: addis r2,r12,467 addi r2,r2,-16028 nop mfocrf r11,8 ... When ftrace is enabled, the nop is converted to an unconditional branch to the stub associated with that function: <kernel_clone>: addis r2,r12,467 addi r2,r2,-16028 b ftrace_ool_stub_text_end+0x11b28 mfocrf r11,8 ... The associated stub: <ftrace_ool_stub_text_end+0x11b28>: mflr r0 bl ftrace_caller mtlr r0 b kernel_clone+0xc ... This change showed an improvement of ~10% in null_syscall benchmark on a Power 10 system with ftrace enabled.

powerpc/ftrace: Add a postlink script to validate function tracer
Function tracer on powerpc can only work with vmlinux having a .text size of up to ~64MB due to powerpc branch instruction having a limited relative branch range of 32MB. Today, this is only detected on kernel boot when ftrace is init'ed. Add a post-link script to check the size of .text so that we can detect this at build time, and break the build if necessary. We add a dependency on !COMPILE_TEST for CONFIG_HAVE_FUNCTION_TRACER so that allyesconfig and other test builds can continue to work without enabling ftrace.

powerpc: Fix stack protector Kconfig test for clang
Clang's in-progress per-task stack protector support [1] does not work
with the current Kconfig checks because '-mstack-protector-guard-offset'
is not provided, unlike all other architecture Kconfig checks.
$ fd Kconfig -x rg -l mstack-protector-guard-offset
./arch/arm/Kconfig
./arch/riscv/Kconfig
./arch/arm64/Kconfig
This produces an error from clang, which is interpreted as the flags not
being supported at all when they really are.
$ clang --target=powerpc64-linux-gnu \
-mstack-protector-guard=tls \
-mstack-protector-guard-reg=r13 \
-c -o /dev/null -x c /dev/null
clang: error: '-mstack-protector-guard=tls' is used without '-mstack-protector-guard-offset', and there is no default
This argument will always be provided by the build system, so mirror
other architectures and use '-mstack-protector-guard-offset=0' for
testing support, which fixes the issue for clang and does not regress
support with GCC.
Even with the first problem addressed, the 32-bit test continues to fail
because Kbuild uses the powerpc64le-linux-gnu target for clang and
nothing flips the target to 32-bit, resulting in an error about an
invalid register valid:
$ clang --target=powerpc64le-linux-gnu \
-mstack-protector-guard=tls
-mstack-protector-guard-reg=r2 \
-mstack-protector-guard-offset=0 \
-x c -c -o /dev/null /dev/null
clang: error: invalid value 'r2' in 'mstack-protector-guard-reg=', expected one of: r13
While GCC allows arbitrary registers, the implementation of
'-mstack-protector-guard=tls' in LLVM shares the same code path as the
user space thread local storage implementation, which uses a fixed
register (2 for 32-bit and 13 for 62-bit), so the command line parsing
enforces this limitation.
Use the Kconfig macro '$(m32-flag)', which expands to '-m32' when
supported, in the stack protector support cc-option call to properly
switch the target to a 32-bit one, which matches what happens in Kbuild.
While the 64-bit macro does not strictly need it, add the equivalent
64-bit option for symmetry.

Pull random number generator updates from Jason Donenfeld:
"Originally I'd planned on sending each of the vDSO getrandom()
architecture ports to their respective arch trees. But as we started
to work on this, we found lots of interesting issues in the shared
code and infrastructure, the fixes for which the various archs needed
to base their work.
So in the end, this turned into a nice collaborative effort fixing up
issues and porting to 5 new architectures -- arm64, powerpc64,
powerpc32, s390x, and loongarch64 -- with everybody pitching in and
commenting on each other's code. It was a fun development cycle.
This contains:
- Numerous fixups to the vDSO selftest infrastructure, getting it
running successfully on more platforms, and fixing bugs in it.
- Additions to the vDSO getrandom & chacha selftests. Basically every
time manual review unearthed a bug in a revision of an arch patch,
or an ambiguity, the tests were augmented.
By the time the last arch was submitted for review, s390x, v1 of
the series was essentially fine right out of the gate.
- Fixes to the the generic C implementation of vDSO getrandom, to
build and run successfully on all archs, decoupling it from
assumptions we had (unintentionally) made on x86_64 that didn't
carry through to the other architectures.
- Port of vDSO getrandom to LoongArch64, from Xi Ruoyao and acked by
Huacai Chen.
- Port of vDSO getrandom to ARM64, from Adhemerval Zanella and acked
by Will Deacon.
- Port of vDSO getrandom to PowerPC, in both 32-bit and 64-bit
varieties, from Christophe Leroy and acked by Michael Ellerman.
- Port of vDSO getrandom to S390X from Heiko Carstens, the arch
maintainer.
While it'd be natural for there to be things to fix up over the course
of the development cycle, these patches got a decent amount of review
from a fairly diverse crew of folks on the mailing lists, and, for the
most part, they've been cooking in linux-next, which has been helpful
for ironing out build issues.
In terms of architectures, I think that mostly takes care of the
important 64-bit archs with hardware still being produced and running
production loads in settings where vDSO getrandom is likely to help.
Arguably there's still RISC-V left, and we'll see for 6.13 whether
they find it useful and submit a port"

powerpc/vdso: Wire up getrandom() vDSO implementation on VDSO32
To be consistent with other VDSO functions, the function is called __kernel_getrandom() __arch_chacha20_blocks_nostack() fonction is implemented basically with 32 bits operations. It performs 4 QUARTERROUND operations in parallele. There are enough registers to avoid using the stack: On input: r3: output bytes r4: 32-byte key input r5: 8-byte counter input/output r6: number of 64-byte blocks to write to output During operation: stack: pointer to counter (r5) and non-volatile registers (r14-131) r0: counter of blocks (initialised with r6) r4: Value '4' after key has been read, used for indexing r5-r12: key r14-r15: block counter r16-r31: chacha state At the end: r0, r6-r12: Zeroised r5, r14-r31: Restored Performance on powerpc 885 (using kernel selftest): ~# ./vdso_test_getrandom bench-single vdso: 25000000 times in 62.938002291 seconds libc: 25000000 times in 535.581916866 seconds syscall: 25000000 times in 531.525042806 seconds Performance on powerpc 8321 (using kernel selftest): ~# ./vdso_test_getrandom bench-single vdso: 25000000 times in 16.899318858 seconds libc: 25000000 times in 131.050596522 seconds syscall: 25000000 times in 129.794790389 seconds This first patch adds support for VDSO32. As selftests cannot easily be generated only for VDSO32, and because the following patch brings support for VDSO64 anyway, this patch opts out all code in __arch_chacha20_blocks_nostack() so that vdso_test_chacha will not fail to compile and will not crash on PPC64/PPC64LE, allthough the selftest itself will fail.

dma-mapping: clearly mark DMA ops as an architecture feature
DMA ops are a helper for architectures and not for drivers to override the DMA implementation. Unfortunately driver authors keep ignoring this.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- In the series "mm: Avoid possible overflows in dirty throttling" Jan
Kara addresses a couple of issues in the writeback throttling code.
These fixes are also targetted at -stable kernels.
- Ryusuke Konishi's series "nilfs2: fix potential issues related to
reserved inodes" does that. This should actually be in the
mm-nonmm-stable tree, along with the many other nilfs2 patches. My
bad.
- More folio conversions from Kefeng Wang in the series "mm: convert to
folio_alloc_mpol()"
- Kemeng Shi has sent some cleanups to the writeback code in the series
"Add helper functions to remove repeated code and improve readability
of cgroup writeback"
- Kairui Song has made the swap code a little smaller and a little
faster in the series "mm/swap: clean up and optimize swap cache
index".
- In the series "mm/memory: cleanly support zeropage in
vm_insert_page*(), vm_map_pages*() and vmf_insert_mixed()" David
Hildenbrand has reworked the rather sketchy handling of the use of
the zeropage in MAP_SHARED mappings. I don't see any runtime effects
here - more a cleanup/understandability/maintainablity thing.
- Dev Jain has improved selftests/mm/va_high_addr_switch.c's handling
of higher addresses, for aarch64. The (poorly named) series is
"Restructure va_high_addr_switch".
- The core TLB handling code gets some cleanups and possible slight
optimizations in Bang Li's series "Add update_mmu_tlb_range() to
simplify code".
- Jane Chu has improved the handling of our
fake-an-unrecoverable-memory-error testing feature MADV_HWPOISON in
the series "Enhance soft hwpoison handling and injection".
- Jeff Johnson has sent a billion patches everywhere to add
MODULE_DESCRIPTION() to everything. Some landed in this pull.
- In the series "mm: cleanup MIGRATE_SYNC_NO_COPY mode", Kefeng Wang
has simplified migration's use of hardware-offload memory copying.
- Yosry Ahmed performs more folio API conversions in his series "mm:
zswap: trivial folio conversions".
- In the series "large folios swap-in: handle refault cases first",
Chuanhua Han inches us forward in the handling of large pages in the
swap code. This is a cleanup and optimization, working toward the end
objective of full support of large folio swapin/out.
- In the series "mm,swap: cleanup VMA based swap readahead window
calculation", Huang Ying has contributed some cleanups and a possible
fixlet to his VMA based swap readahead code.
- In the series "add mTHP support for anonymous shmem" Baolin Wang has
taught anonymous shmem mappings to use multisize THP. By default this
is a no-op - users must opt in vis sysfs controls. Dramatic
improvements in pagefault latency are realized.
- David Hildenbrand has some cleanups to our remaining use of
page_mapcount() in the series "fs/proc: move page_mapcount() to
fs/proc/internal.h".
- David also has some highmem accounting cleanups in the series
"mm/highmem: don't track highmem pages manually".
- Build-time fixes and cleanups from John Hubbard in the series
"cleanups, fixes, and progress towards avoiding "make headers"".
- Cleanups and consolidation of the core pagemap handling from Barry
Song in the series "mm: introduce pmd|pte_needs_soft_dirty_wp helpers
and utilize them".
- Lance Yang's series "Reclaim lazyfree THP without splitting" has
reduced the latency of the reclaim of pmd-mapped THPs under fairly
common circumstances. A 10x speedup is seen in a microbenchmark.
It does this by punting to aother CPU but I guess that's a win unless
all CPUs are pegged.
- hugetlb_cgroup cleanups from Xiu Jianfeng in the series
"mm/hugetlb_cgroup: rework on cftypes".
- Miaohe Lin's series "Some cleanups for memory-failure" does just that
thing.
- Someone other than SeongJae has developed a DAMON feature in Honggyu
Kim's series "DAMON based tiered memory management for CXL memory".
This adds DAMON features which may be used to help determine the
efficiency of our placement of CXL/PCIe attached DRAM.
- DAMON user API centralization and simplificatio work in SeongJae
Park's series "mm/damon: introduce DAMON parameters online commit
function".
- In the series "mm: page_type, zsmalloc and page_mapcount_reset()"
David Hildenbrand does some maintenance work on zsmalloc - partially
modernizing its use of pageframe fields.
- Kefeng Wang provides more folio conversions in the series "mm: remove
page_maybe_dma_pinned() and page_mkclean()".
- More cleanup from David Hildenbrand, this time in the series
"mm/memory_hotplug: use PageOffline() instead of PageReserved() for
!ZONE_DEVICE". It "enlightens memory hotplug more about PageOffline()
pages" and permits the removal of some virtio-mem hacks.
- Barry Song's series "mm: clarify folio_add_new_anon_rmap() and
__folio_add_anon_rmap()" is a cleanup to the anon folio handling in
preparation for mTHP (multisize THP) swapin.
- Kefeng Wang's series "mm: improve clear and copy user folio"
implements more folio conversions, this time in the area of large
folio userspace copying.
- The series "Docs/mm/damon/maintaier-profile: document a mailing tool
and community meetup series" tells people how to get better involved
with other DAMON developers. From SeongJae Park.
- A large series ("kmsan: Enable on s390") from Ilya Leoshkevich does
that.
- David Hildenbrand sends along more cleanups, this time against the
migration code. The series is "mm/migrate: move NUMA hinting fault
folio isolation + checks under PTL".
- Jan Kara has found quite a lot of strangenesses and minor errors in
the readahead code. He addresses this in the series "mm: Fix various
readahead quirks".
- SeongJae Park's series "selftests/damon: test DAMOS tried regions and
{min,max}_nr_regions" adds features and addresses errors in DAMON's
self testing code.
- Gavin Shan has found a userspace-triggerable WARN in the pagecache
code. The series "mm/filemap: Limit page cache size to that supported
by xarray" addresses this. The series is marked cc:stable.
- Chengming Zhou's series "mm/ksm: cmp_and_merge_page() optimizations
and cleanup" cleans up and slightly optimizes KSM.
- Roman Gushchin has separated the memcg-v1 and memcg-v2 code - lots of
code motion. The series (which also makes the memcg-v1 code
Kconfigurable) are "mm: memcg: separate legacy cgroup v1 code and put
under config option" and "mm: memcg: put cgroup v1-specific memcg
data under CONFIG_MEMCG_V1"
- Dan Schatzberg's series "Add swappiness argument to memory.reclaim"
adds an additional feature to this cgroup-v2 control file.
- The series "Userspace controls soft-offline pages" from Jiaqi Yan
permits userspace to stop the kernel's automatic treatment of
excessive correctable memory errors. In order to permit userspace to
monitor and handle this situation.
- Kefeng Wang's series "mm: migrate: support poison recover from
migrate folio" teaches the kernel to appropriately handle migration
from poisoned source folios rather than simply panicing.
- SeongJae Park's series "Docs/damon: minor fixups and improvements"
does those things.
- In the series "mm/zsmalloc: change back to per-size_class lock"
Chengming Zhou improves zsmalloc's scalability and memory
utilization.
- Vivek Kasireddy's series "mm/gup: Introduce memfd_pin_folios() for
pinning memfd folios" makes the GUP code use FOLL_PIN rather than
bare refcount increments. So these paes can first be moved aside if
they reside in the movable zone or a CMA block.
- Andrii Nakryiko has added a binary ioctl()-based API to
/proc/pid/maps for much faster reading of vma information. The series
is "query VMAs from /proc/<pid>/maps".
- In the series "mm: introduce per-order mTHP split counters" Lance
Yang improves the kernel's presentation of developer information
related to multisize THP splitting.
- Michael Ellerman has developed the series "Reimplement huge pages
without hugepd on powerpc (8xx, e500, book3s/64)". This permits
userspace to use all available huge page sizes.
- In the series "revert unconditional slab and page allocator fault
injection calls" Vlastimil Babka removes a performance-affecting and
not very useful feature from slab fault injection.

treewide: change conditional prompt for choices to 'depends on'
While Documentation/kbuild/kconfig-language.rst provides a brief
explanation, there are recurring confusions regarding the usage of a
prompt followed by 'if <expr>'. This conditional controls _only_ the
prompt.
A typical usage is as follows:
menuconfig BLOCK
bool "Enable the block layer" if EXPERT
default y
When EXPERT=n, the prompt is hidden, but this config entry is still
active, and BLOCK is set to its default value 'y'. This is reasonable
because you are likely want to enable the block device support. When
EXPERT=y, the prompt is shown, allowing you to toggle BLOCK.
Please note that it is different from 'depends on EXPERT', which would
enable and disable the entire config entry.
However, this conditional prompt has never worked in a choice block.
The following two work in the same way: when EXPERT is disabled, the
choice block is entirely disabled.
[Test Code 1]
choice
prompt "choose" if EXPERT
config A
bool "A"
config B
bool "B"
endchoice
[Test Code 2]
choice
prompt "choose"
depends on EXPERT
config A
bool "A"
config B
bool "B"
endchoice
I believe the first case should hide only the prompt, producing the
default:
CONFIG_A=y
# CONFIG_B is not set
The next commit will change (fix) the behavior of the conditional prompt
in choice blocks.
I see several choice blocks wrongly using a conditional prompt, where
'depends on' makes more sense.
To preserve the current behavior, this commit converts such misuses.
I did not touch the following entry in arch/x86/Kconfig:
choice
prompt "Memory split" if EXPERT
default VMSPLIT_3G
This is truly the correct use of the conditional prompt; when EXPERT=n,
this choice block should silently select the reasonable VMSPLIT_3G,
although the resulting PAGE_OFFSET will not be affected anyway.
Presumably, the one in fs/jffs2/Kconfig is also correct, but I converted
it to 'depends on' to avoid any potential behavioral change.

powerpc: Limit ARCH_HAS_KERNEL_FPU_SUPPORT to PPC64
When building a 32-bit kernel, some toolchains do not allow mixing soft
float and hard float object files:
LD vmlinux.o
powerpc64le-unknown-linux-musl-ld: lib/test_fpu_impl.o uses hard float, arch/powerpc/kernel/udbg.o uses soft float
powerpc64le-unknown-linux-musl-ld: failed to merge target specific data of file lib/test_fpu_impl.o
make[2]: *** [scripts/Makefile.vmlinux_o:62: vmlinux.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** [Makefile:1152: vmlinux_o] Error 2
make: *** [Makefile:240: __sub-make] Error 2
This is not an issue when building a 64-bit kernel. To unbreak the
build, limit ARCH_HAS_KERNEL_FPU_SUPPORT to 64-bit kernels. This is okay
because the only real user of this option, amdgpu, was previously
limited to PPC64 anyway; see commit

powerpc/crash: add crash CPU hotplug support
Due to CPU/Memory hotplug or online/offline events, the elfcorehdr (which describes the CPUs and memory of the crashed kernel) and FDT (Flattened Device Tree) of kdump image becomes outdated. Consequently, attempting dump collection with an outdated elfcorehdr or FDT can lead to failed or inaccurate dump collection. Going forward, CPU hotplug or online/offline events are referred as CPU/Memory add/remove events. The current solution to address the above issue involves monitoring the CPU/Memory add/remove events in userspace using udev rules and whenever there are changes in CPU and memory resources, the entire kdump image is loaded again. The kdump image includes kernel, initrd, elfcorehdr, FDT, purgatory. Given that only elfcorehdr and FDT get outdated due to CPU/Memory add/remove events, reloading the entire kdump image is inefficient. More importantly, kdump remains inactive for a substantial amount of time until the kdump reload completes. To address the aforementioned issue, commit |

Merge tag 'mm-stable-2024-03-13-20-04' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm
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.
