If we add ``thp_anon=32,64K:always`` to the kernel command line, we
will see the following error:
[ 0.000000] huge_memory: thp_anon=32,64K:always: error parsing string, ignoring setting
This happens because the correct format isn't ``thp_anon=<size>,<size>[KMG]:<state>```,
as [KMG] must follow each number to especify its unit. So, the correct
format is ``thp_anon=<size>[KMG],<size>[KMG]:<state>```.
Therefore, adjust the documentation to reflect the correct format of the
parameter ``thp_anon=``.

Pull x86 kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"x86:
- KVM currently invalidates the entirety of the page tables, not just
those for the memslot being touched, when a memslot is moved or
deleted.
This does not traditionally have particularly noticeable overhead,
but Intel's TDX will require the guest to re-accept private pages
if they are dropped from the secure EPT, which is a non starter.
Actually, the only reason why this is not already being done is a
bug which was never fully investigated and caused VM instability
with assigned GeForce GPUs, so allow userspace to opt into the new
behavior.
- Advertise AVX10.1 to userspace (effectively prep work for the
"real" AVX10 functionality that is on the horizon)
- Rework common MSR handling code to suppress errors on userspace
accesses to unsupported-but-advertised MSRs
This will allow removing (almost?) all of KVM's exemptions for
userspace access to MSRs that shouldn't exist based on the vCPU
model (the actual cleanup is non-trivial future work)
- Rework KVM's handling of x2APIC ICR, again, because AMD (x2AVIC)
splits the 64-bit value into the legacy ICR and ICR2 storage,
whereas Intel (APICv) stores the entire 64-bit value at the ICR
offset
- Fix a bug where KVM would fail to exit to userspace if one was
triggered by a fastpath exit handler
- Add fastpath handling of HLT VM-Exit to expedite re-entering the
guest when there's already a pending wake event at the time of the
exit
- Fix a WARN caused by RSM entering a nested guest from SMM with
invalid guest state, by forcing the vCPU out of guest mode prior to
signalling SHUTDOWN (the SHUTDOWN hits the VM altogether, not the
nested guest)
- Overhaul the "unprotect and retry" logic to more precisely identify
cases where retrying is actually helpful, and to harden all retry
paths against putting the guest into an infinite retry loop
- Add support for yielding, e.g. to honor NEED_RESCHED, when zapping
rmaps in the shadow MMU
- Refactor pieces of the shadow MMU related to aging SPTEs in
prepartion for adding multi generation LRU support in KVM
- Don't stuff the RSB after VM-Exit when RETPOLINE=y and AutoIBRS is
enabled, i.e. when the CPU has already flushed the RSB
- Trace the per-CPU host save area as a VMCB pointer to improve
readability and cleanup the retrieval of the SEV-ES host save area
- Remove unnecessary accounting of temporary nested VMCB related
allocations
- Set FINAL/PAGE in the page fault error code for EPT violations if
and only if the GVA is valid. If the GVA is NOT valid, there is no
guest-side page table walk and so stuffing paging related metadata
is nonsensical
- Fix a bug where KVM would incorrectly synthesize a nested VM-Exit
instead of emulating posted interrupt delivery to L2
- Add a lockdep assertion to detect unsafe accesses of vmcs12
structures
- Harden eVMCS loading against an impossible NULL pointer deref
(really truly should be impossible)
- Minor SGX fix and a cleanup
- Misc cleanups
Generic:
- Register KVM's cpuhp and syscore callbacks when enabling
virtualization in hardware, as the sole purpose of said callbacks
is to disable and re-enable virtualization as needed
- Enable virtualization when KVM is loaded, not right before the
first VM is created
Together with the previous change, this simplifies a lot the logic
of the callbacks, because their very existence implies
virtualization is enabled
- Fix a bug that results in KVM prematurely exiting to userspace for
coalesced MMIO/PIO in many cases, clean up the related code, and
add a testcase
- Fix a bug in kvm_clear_guest() where it would trigger a buffer
overflow _if_ the gpa+len crosses a page boundary, which thankfully
is guaranteed to not happen in the current code base. Add WARNs in
more helpers that read/write guest memory to detect similar bugs
Selftests:
- Fix a goof that caused some Hyper-V tests to be skipped when run on
bare metal, i.e. NOT in a VM
- Add a regression test for KVM's handling of SHUTDOWN for an SEV-ES
guest
- Explicitly include one-off assets in .gitignore. Past Sean was
completely wrong about not being able to detect missing .gitignore
entries
- Verify userspace single-stepping works when KVM happens to handle a
VM-Exit in its fastpath
- Misc cleanups"

Pull ring-buffer updates from Steven Rostedt:
- tracing/ring-buffer: persistent buffer across reboots
This allows for the tracing instance ring buffer to stay persistent
across reboots. The way this is done is by adding to the kernel
command line:
trace_instance=boot_map@0x285400000:12M
This will reserve 12 megabytes at the address 0x285400000, and then
map the tracing instance "boot_map" ring buffer to that memory. This
will appear as a normal instance in the tracefs system:
/sys/kernel/tracing/instances/boot_map
A user could enable tracing in that instance, and on reboot or kernel
crash, if the memory is not wiped by the firmware, it will recreate
the trace in that instance. For example, if one was debugging a
shutdown of a kernel reboot:
# cd /sys/kernel/tracing
# echo function > instances/boot_map/current_tracer
# reboot
[..]
# cd /sys/kernel/tracing
# tail instances/boot_map/trace

swapper/0-1 [000] d..1. 164.549822: acpi_os_write_port <-acpi_reboot
On reboot, the buffer is examined to make sure it is valid. The
validation check even steps through every event to make sure the meta
data of the event is correct. If any test fails, it will simply reset
the buffer, and the buffer will be empty on boot.
- Allow the tracing persistent boot buffer to use the "reserve_mem"
option
Instead of having the admin find a physical address to store the
persistent buffer, which can be very tedious if they have to
administrate several different machines, allow them to use the
"reserve_mem" option that will find a location for them. It is not as
reliable because of KASLR, as the loading of the kernel in different
locations can cause the memory allocated to be inconsistent. Booting
with "nokaslr" can make reserve_mem more reliable.
- Have function graph tracer handle offsets from a previous boot.
The ring buffer output from a previous boot may have different
addresses due to kaslr. Have the function graph tracer handle these
by using the delta from the previous boot to the new boot address
space.
- Only reset the saved meta offset when the buffer is started or reset
In the persistent memory meta data, it holds the previous address
space information, so that it can calculate the delta to have
function tracing work. But this gets updated after being read to hold
the new address space. But if the buffer isn't used for that boot, on
reboot, the delta is now calculated from the previous boot and not
the boot that holds the data in the ring buffer. This causes the
functions not to be shown. Do not save the address space information
of the current kernel until it is being recorded.
- Add a magic variable to test the valid meta data
Add a magic variable in the meta data that can also be used for
validation. The validator of the previous buffer doesn't need this
magic data, but it can be used if the meta data is changed by a new
kernel, which may have the same format that passes the validator but
is used differently. This magic number can also be used as a
"versioning" of the meta data.
- Align user space mapped ring buffer sub buffers to improve TLB
entries
Linus mentioned that the mapped ring buffer sub buffers were
misaligned between the meta page and the sub-buffers, so that if the
sub-buffers were bigger than PAGE_SIZE, it wouldn't allow the TLB to
use bigger entries.
- Add new kernel command line "traceoff" to disable tracing on boot for
instances
If tracing is enabled for a boot instance, there needs a way to be
able to disable it on boot so that new events do not get entered into
the ring buffer and be mixed with events from a previous boot, as
that can be confusing.
- Allow trace_printk() to go to other instances
Currently, trace_printk() can only go to the top level instance. When
debugging with a persistent buffer, it is really useful to be able to
add trace_printk() to go to that buffer, so that you have access to
them after a crash.
- Do not use "bin_printk()" for traces to a boot instance
The bin_printk() saves only a pointer to the printk format in the
ring buffer, as the reader of the buffer can still have access to it.
But this is not the case if the buffer is from a previous boot. If
the trace_printk() is going to a "persistent" buffer, it will use the
slower version that writes the printk format into the buffer.
- Add command line option to allow trace_printk() to go to an instance
Allow the kernel command line to define which instance the
trace_printk() goes to, instead of forcing the admin to set it for
every boot via the tracefs options.
- Start a document that explains how to use tracefs to debug the kernel
- Add some more kernel selftests to test user mapped ring buffer

Pull lsm updates from Paul Moore:
- Move the LSM framework to static calls
This transitions the vast majority of the LSM callbacks into static
calls. Those callbacks which haven't been converted were left as-is
due to the general ugliness of the changes required to support the
static call conversion; we can revisit those callbacks at a future
date.
- Add the Integrity Policy Enforcement (IPE) LSM
This adds a new LSM, Integrity Policy Enforcement (IPE). There is
plenty of documentation about IPE in this patches, so I'll refrain
from going into too much detail here, but the basic motivation behind
IPE is to provide a mechanism such that administrators can restrict
execution to only those binaries which come from integrity protected
storage, e.g. a dm-verity protected filesystem. You will notice that
IPE requires additional LSM hooks in the initramfs, dm-verity, and
fs-verity code, with the associated patches carrying ACK/review tags
from the associated maintainers. We couldn't find an obvious
maintainer for the initramfs code, but the IPE patchset has been
widely posted over several years.
Both Deven Bowers and Fan Wu have contributed to IPE's development
over the past several years, with Fan Wu agreeing to serve as the IPE
maintainer moving forward. Once IPE is accepted into your tree, I'll
start working with Fan to ensure he has the necessary accounts, keys,
etc. so that he can start submitting IPE pull requests to you
directly during the next merge window.
- Move the lifecycle management of the LSM blobs to the LSM framework
Management of the LSM blobs (the LSM state buffers attached to
various kernel structs, typically via a void pointer named "security"
or similar) has been mixed, some blobs were allocated/managed by
individual LSMs, others were managed by the LSM framework itself.
Starting with this pull we move management of all the LSM blobs,
minus the XFRM blob, into the framework itself, improving consistency
across LSMs, and reducing the amount of duplicated code across LSMs.
Due to some additional work required to migrate the XFRM blob, it has
been left as a todo item for a later date; from a practical
standpoint this omission should have little impact as only SELinux
provides a XFRM LSM implementation.
- Fix problems with the LSM's handling of F_SETOWN
The LSM hook for the fcntl(F_SETOWN) operation had a couple of
problems: it was racy with itself, and it was disconnected from the
associated DAC related logic in such a way that the LSM state could
be updated in cases where the DAC state would not. We fix both of
these problems by moving the security_file_set_fowner() hook into the
same section of code where the DAC attributes are updated. Not only
does this resolve the DAC/LSM synchronization issue, but as that code
block is protected by a lock, it also resolve the race condition.
- Fix potential problems with the security_inode_free() LSM hook
Due to use of RCU to protect inodes and the placement of the LSM hook
associated with freeing the inode, there is a bit of a challenge when
it comes to managing any LSM state associated with an inode. The VFS
folks are not open to relocating the LSM hook so we have to get
creative when it comes to releasing an inode's LSM state.
Traditionally we have used a single LSM callback within the hook that
is triggered when the inode is "marked for death", but not actually
released due to RCU.
Unfortunately, this causes problems for LSMs which want to take an
action when the inode's associated LSM state is actually released; so
we add an additional LSM callback, inode_free_security_rcu(), that is
called when the inode's LSM state is released in the RCU free
callback.
- Refactor two LSM hooks to better fit the LSM return value patterns
The vast majority of the LSM hooks follow the "return 0 on success,
negative values on failure" pattern, however, there are a small
handful that have unique return value behaviors which has caused
confusion in the past and makes it difficult for the BPF verifier to
properly vet BPF LSM programs. This includes patches to
convert two of these"special" LSM hooks to the common 0/-ERRNO pattern.
- Various cleanups and improvements
A handful of patches to remove redundant code, better leverage the
IS_ERR_OR_NULL() helper, add missing "static" markings, and do some
minor style fixups.

Pull procfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the following changes for procfs:
- Add config options and parameters to block forcing memory writes.
This adds a Kconfig option and boot param to allow removing the
FOLL_FORCE flag from /proc/<pid>/mem write calls as this can be
used in various attacks.
The traditional forcing behavior is kept as default because it can
break GDB and some other use cases.
This is the simpler version that you had requested.
- Restrict overmounting of ephemeral entities.
It is currently possible to mount on top of various ephemeral
entities in procfs. This specifically includes magic links. To
recap, magic links are links of the form /proc/<pid>/fd/<nr>. They
serve as references to a target file and during path lookup they
cause a jump to the target path. Such magic links disappear if the
corresponding file descriptor is closed.
Currently it is possible to overmount such magic links. This is
mostly interesting for an attacker that wants to somehow trick a
process into e.g., reopening something that it didn't intend to
reopen or to hide a malicious file descriptor.
But also it risks leaking mounts for long-running processes. When
overmounting a magic link like above, the mount will not be
detached when the file descriptor is closed. Only the target
mountpoint will disappear. Which has the consequence of making it
impossible to unmount that mount afterwards. So the mount will
stick around until the process exits and the /proc/<pid>/ directory
is cleaned up during proc_flush_pid() when the dentries are pruned
and invalidated.
That in turn means it's possible for a program to accidentally leak
mounts and it's also possible to make a task leak mounts without
it's knowledge if the attacker just keeps overmounting things under
/proc/<pid>/fd/<nr>.
Disallow overmounting of such ephemeral entities.

Add two new kernel command line parameters to limit the page-sizes
used for v1 page-tables:
nohugepages - Limits page-sizes to 4KiB
v2_pgsizes_only - Limits page-sizes to 4Kib/2Mib/1GiB; The
same as the sizes used with v2 page-tables
This is needed for multiple scenarios. When assigning devices to
SEV-SNP guests the IOMMU page-sizes need to match the sizes in the RMP
table, otherwise the device will not be able to access all shared
memory.
Also, some ATS devices do not work properly with arbitrary IO
page-sizes as supported by AMD-Vi, so limiting the sizes used by the
driver is a suitable workaround.
All-in-all, these parameters are only workarounds until the IOMMU core
and related APIs gather the ability to negotiate the page-sizes in a
better way.

Commit ed5cc702d311 ("block: Add config option to not allow writing to mounted
devices") added a Kconfig option along with a kernel command-line tuning to
control writes to mounted block devices, as a means to deal with fuzzers like
Syzkaller, that provokes kernel crashes by directly writing on block devices
bypassing the filesystem (so the FS has no awareness and cannot cope with that).
The patch just missed adding such kernel command-line option to the kernel
documentation, so let's fix that.

Add an on-by-default module param, enable_virt_at_load, to let userspace
force virtualization to be enabled in hardware when KVM is initialized,
i.e. just before /dev/kvm is exposed to userspace. Enabling virtualization
during KVM initialization allows userspace to avoid the additional latency
when creating/destroying the first/last VM (or more specifically, on the
0=>1 and 1=>0 edges of creation/destruction).
Now that KVM uses the cpuhp framework to do per-CPU enabling, the latency
could be non-trivial as the cpuhup bringup/teardown is serialized across
CPUs, e.g. the latency could be problematic for use case that need to spin
up VMs quickly.
Prior to commit 10474ae8945c ("KVM: Activate Virtualization On Demand"),
KVM _unconditionally_ enabled virtualization during load, i.e. there's no
fundamental reason KVM needs to dynamically toggle virtualization. These
days, the only known argument for not enabling virtualization is to allow
KVM to be autoloaded without blocking other out-of-tree hypervisors, and
such use cases can simply change the module param, e.g. via command line.
Note, the aforementioned commit also mentioned that enabling SVM (AMD's
virtualization extensions) can result in "using invalid TLB entries".
It's not clear whether the changelog was referring to a KVM bug, a CPU
bug, or something else entirely. Regardless, leaving virtualization off
by default is not a robust "fix", as any protection provided is lost the
instant userspace creates the first VM.

Add thp_anon= cmdline parameter to allow specifying the default enablement
of each supported anon THP size. The parameter accepts the following
format and can be provided multiple times to configure each size:
thp_anon=<size>,<size>[KMG]:<value>;<size>-<size>[KMG]:<value>
An example:
thp_anon=16K-64K:always;128K,512K:inherit;256K:madvise;1M-2M:never
See Documentation/admin-guide/mm/transhuge.rst for more details.
Configuring the defaults at boot time is useful to allow early user space
to take advantage of mTHP before its been configured through sysfs.

The traditional forcing behavior is kept as default because

Previously we tried a more sophisticated approach allowing

If the persistent boot mapped ring buffer is used for trace_printk(),
force it to not use the binary versions. trace_printk() by default uses
bin_printf() that only saves the pointer to the format and not the format
itself inside the ring buffer. But for a persistent buffer that is read
after reboot, the pointers to the format strings may not be the same, or
worse, not even exist! Instead, just force the more robust, but slower,
version that does the formatting before saving into the ring buffer.
The boot mapped buffer can now be used for trace_printk and friends!
Using the trace_printk() and the persistent buffer was used to debug the
issue with the osnoise tracer:

Currently, trace_printk() just goes to the top level ring buffer. But
there may be times that it should go to one of the instances created by
the kernel command line.
Add a new trace_instance flag: traceprintk (also can use "printk" or
"trace_printk" as people tend to forget the actual flag name).
trace_instance=foo^traceprintk
Will assign the trace_printk to this buffer at boot up.

Add a "flags" delimiter (^) to the "trace_instance" kernel command line
parameter, and add the "traceoff" flag. The format is:
trace_instance=<name>[^<flag1>[^<flag2>]][@<memory>][,<events>]
The code allows for more than one flag to be added, but currently only
"traceoff" is done so.
The motivation for this change came from debugging with the persistent
ring buffer and having trace_printk() writing to it. The trace_printk
calls are always enabled, and the boot after the crash was having the
unwanted trace_printks from the current boot inject into the ring buffer
with the trace_printks of the crash kernel, making the output very
confusing.

Allow boot instances to use memory reserved by the reserve_mem boot
option.
reserve_mem=12M:4096:trace trace_instance=boot_mapped@trace
The above will allocate 12 megs with 4096 alignment and label it "trace".
The second parameter will create a "boot_mapped" instance and use the
memory reserved and labeled as "trace" as the memory for the ring buffer.
That will create an instance called "boot_mapped":
/sys/kernel/tracing/instances/boot_mapped
Note, because the ring buffer is using a defined memory ranged, it will
act just like a memory mapped ring buffer. It will not have a snapshot
buffer, as it can't swap out the buffer. The snapshot files as well as any
tracers that uses a snapshot will not be present in the boot_mapped
instance.
Also note that reserve_mem is not reliable in acquiring the same physical
memory at each soft reboot. It is possible that KALSR could map the kernel
at the previous boot memory location forcing the reserve_mem to return a
different memory location. In this case, the previous ring buffer will be
lost.

During CSD-lock stalls, the additional information output by RCU CPU
stall warnings is usually redundant, flooding the console for not good
reason. However, this has been the way things work for a few years.
This commit therefore adds an rcutree.csd_lock_suppress_rcu_stall kernel
boot parameter that causes RCU CPU stall warnings to be abbreviated to
a single line when there is at least one CPU that has been stuck waiting
for CSD lock for more than five seconds.
To make this abbreviated message happen with decent probability:
tools/testing/selftests/rcutorture/bin/kvm.sh --allcpus --duration 8 \
--configs "2*TREE01" --kconfig "CONFIG_CSD_LOCK_WAIT_DEBUG=y" \
--bootargs "csdlock_debug=1 rcutorture.stall_cpu=200 \
rcutorture.stall_cpu_holdoff=120 rcutorture.stall_cpu_irqsoff=1 \
rcutree.csd_lock_suppress_rcu_stall=1 \

This commit adds an stall_cpu_repeat kernel, which is also the
rcutorture.stall_cpu_repeat boot parameter, to test repeated CPU stalls.
Note that only the first stall will pay attention to the stall_cpu_irqsoff
module parameter. For the second and subsequent stalls, interrupts will
be enabled. This is helpful when testing the interaction between RCU
CPU stall warnings and CSD-lock stall warnings.

The kernel sleep profile is no longer working due to a recursive locking
bug introduced by commit 42a20f86dc19 ("sched: Add wrapper for get_wchan()
to keep task blocked")
Booting with the 'profile=sleep' kernel command line option added or
executing
# echo -n sleep > /sys/kernel/profiling
after boot causes the system to lock up.
Lockdep reports
kthreadd/3 is trying to acquire lock:
ffff93ac82e08d58 (&p->pi_lock){....}-{2:2}, at: get_wchan+0x32/0x70
but task is already holding lock:
ffff93ac82e08d58 (&p->pi_lock){....}-{2:2}, at: try_to_wake_up+0x53/0x370
with the call trace being

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm
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.

Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"ARM:
- Initial infrastructure for shadow stage-2 MMUs, as part of nested
virtualization enablement
- Support for userspace changes to the guest CTR_EL0 value, enabling
(in part) migration of VMs between heterogenous hardware
- Fixes + improvements to pKVM's FF-A proxy, adding support for v1.1
of the protocol
- FPSIMD/SVE support for nested, including merged trap configuration
and exception routing
- New command-line parameter to control the WFx trap behavior under
KVM
- Introduce kCFI hardening in the EL2 hypervisor
- Fixes + cleanups for handling presence/absence of FEAT_TCRX
- Miscellaneous fixes + documentation updates
LoongArch:
- Add paravirt steal time support
- Add support for KVM_DIRTY_LOG_INITIALLY_SET
- Add perf kvm-stat support for loongarch
RISC-V:
- Redirect AMO load/store access fault traps to guest
- perf kvm stat support
- Use guest files for IMSIC virtualization, when available
s390:
- Assortment of tiny fixes which are not time critical
x86:
- Fixes for Xen emulation
- Add a global struct to consolidate tracking of host values, e.g.
EFER
- Add KVM_CAP_X86_APIC_BUS_CYCLES_NS to allow configuring the
effective APIC bus frequency, because TDX
- Print the name of the APICv/AVIC inhibits in the relevant
tracepoint
- Clean up KVM's handling of vendor specific emulation to
consistently act on "compatible with Intel/AMD", versus checking
for a specific vendor
- Drop MTRR virtualization, and instead always honor guest PAT on
CPUs that support self-snoop
- Update to the newfangled Intel CPU FMS infrastructure
- Don't advertise IA32_PERF_GLOBAL_OVF_CTRL as an MSR-to-be-saved, as
it reads '0' and writes from userspace are ignored
- Misc cleanups
x86 - MMU:
- Small cleanups, renames and refactoring extracted from the upcoming
Intel TDX support
- Don't allocate kvm_mmu_page.shadowed_translation for shadow pages
that can't hold leafs SPTEs
- Unconditionally drop mmu_lock when allocating TDP MMU page tables
for eager page splitting, to avoid stalling vCPUs when splitting
huge pages
- Bug the VM instead of simply warning if KVM tries to split a SPTE
that is non-present or not-huge. KVM is guaranteed to end up in a
broken state because the callers fully expect a valid SPTE, it's
all but dangerous to let more MMU changes happen afterwards
x86 - AMD:
- Make per-CPU save_area allocations NUMA-aware
- Force sev_es_host_save_area() to be inlined to avoid calling into
an instrumentable function from noinstr code
- Base support for running SEV-SNP guests. API-wise, this includes a
new KVM_X86_SNP_VM type, encrypting/measure the initial image into
guest memory, and finalizing it before launching it. Internally,
there are some gmem/mmu hooks needed to prepare gmem-allocated
pages before mapping them into guest private memory ranges
This includes basic support for attestation guest requests, enough
to say that KVM supports the GHCB 2.0 specification
There is no support yet for loading into the firmware those signing
keys to be used for attestation requests, and therefore no need yet
for the host to provide certificate data for those keys.
To support fetching certificate data from userspace, a new KVM exit
type will be needed to handle fetching the certificate from
userspace.
An attempt to define a new KVM_EXIT_COCO / KVM_EXIT_COCO_REQ_CERTS
exit type to handle this was introduced in v1 of this patchset, but
is still being discussed by community, so for now this patchset
only implements a stub version of SNP Extended Guest Requests that
does not provide certificate data
x86 - Intel:
- Remove an unnecessary EPT TLB flush when enabling hardware
- Fix a series of bugs that cause KVM to fail to detect nested
pending posted interrupts as valid wake eents for a vCPU executing
HLT in L2 (with HLT-exiting disable by L1)
- KVM: x86: Suppress MMIO that is triggered during task switch
emulation
Explicitly suppress userspace emulated MMIO exits that are
triggered when emulating a task switch as KVM doesn't support
userspace MMIO during complex (multi-step) emulation
Silently ignoring the exit request can result in the
WARN_ON_ONCE(vcpu->mmio_needed) firing if KVM exits to userspace
for some other reason prior to purging mmio_needed
See commit 0dc902267cb3 ("KVM: x86: Suppress pending MMIO write
exits if emulator detects exception") for more details on KVM's
limitations with respect to emulated MMIO during complex emulator
flows
Generic:
- Rename the AS_UNMOVABLE flag that was introduced for KVM to
AS_INACCESSIBLE, because the special casing needed by these pages
is not due to just unmovability (and in fact they are only
unmovable because the CPU cannot access them)
- New ioctl to populate the KVM page tables in advance, which is
useful to mitigate KVM page faults during guest boot or after live
migration. The code will also be used by TDX, but (probably) not
through the ioctl
- Enable halt poll shrinking by default, as Intel found it to be a
clear win
- Setup empty IRQ routing when creating a VM to avoid having to
synchronize SRCU when creating a split IRQCHIP on x86
- Rework the sched_in/out() paths to replace kvm_arch_sched_in() with
a flag that arch code can use for hooking both sched_in() and
sched_out()
- Take the vCPU @id as an "unsigned long" instead of "u32" to avoid
truncating a bogus value from userspace, e.g. to help userspace
detect bugs
- Mark a vCPU as preempted if and only if it's scheduled out while in
the KVM_RUN loop, e.g. to avoid marking it preempted and thus
writing guest memory when retrieving guest state during live
migration blackout
Selftests:
- Remove dead code in the memslot modification stress test
- Treat "branch instructions retired" as supported on all AMD Family
17h+ CPUs
- Print the guest pseudo-RNG seed only when it changes, to avoid
spamming the log for tests that create lots of VMs
- Make the PMU counters test less flaky when counting LLC cache
misses by doing CLFLUSH{OPT} in every loop iteration"

Pull pci updates from Bjorn Helgaas:
"Enumeration:
- Define PCIE_RESET_CONFIG_DEVICE_WAIT_MS for the generic 100ms
required after reset before config access (Kevin Xie)
- Define PCIE_T_RRS_READY_MS for the generic 100ms required after
reset before config access (probably should be unified with
PCIE_RESET_CONFIG_DEVICE_WAIT_MS) (Damien Le Moal)
Resource management:
- Rename find_resource() to find_resource_space() to be more
descriptive (Ilpo Järvinen)
- Export find_resource_space() for use by PCI core, which needs to
learn whether there is available space for a bridge window (Ilpo
Järvinen)
- Prevent double counting of resources so window size doesn't grow on
each remove/rescan cycle (Ilpo Järvinen)
- Relax bridge window sizing algorithm so a device doesn't break
simply because it was removed and rescanned (Ilpo Järvinen)
- Evaluate the ACPI PRESERVE_BOOT_CONFIG _DSM in
pci_register_host_bridge() (not acpi_pci_root_create()) so we can
unify it with similar DT functionality (Vidya Sagar)
- Extend use of DT "linux,pci-probe-only" property so it works
per-host bridge as well as globally (Vidya Sagar)
- Unify support for ACPI PRESERVE_BOOT_CONFIG _DSM and the DT
"linux,pci-probe-only" property in pci_preserve_config() (Vidya
Sagar)
Driver binding:

BAR resources (Philipp Stanner)
- Deprecate pcim_iomap_table() because uses like
"pcim_iomap_table()[0]" have no good way to return errors (Philipp
Stanner)

pci_request_region() and similar, which are sometimes managed
depending on whether pcim_enable_device() has been called
previously (Philipp Stanner)
- Reimplement pcim_set_mwi() so it doesn't need to keep store MWI
state (Philipp Stanner)

prevents transactions between functions even though it doesn't
advertise ACS, so the functions can be attached individually via
VFIO (Ajit Khaparde)
Peer-to-peer DMA:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/efi/efi
Pull EFI updates from Ard Biesheuvel:
"Note the removal of the EFI fake memory map support - this is believed
to be unused and no longer worth supporting. However, we could easily
bring it back if needed.
With recent developments regarding confidential VMs and unaccepted
memory, combined with kexec, creating a known inaccurate view of the
firmware's memory map and handing it to the OS is a feature we can
live without, hence the removal. Alternatively, I could imagine making
this feature mutually exclusive with those confidential VM related
features, but let's try simply removing it first.
Summary:
- Drop support for the 'fake' EFI memory map on x86
- Add an SMBIOS based tweak to the EFI stub instructing the firmware
on x86 Macbook Pros to keep both GPUs enabled
- Replace 0-sized array with flexible array in EFI memory attributes
table handling
- Drop redundant BSS clearing when booting via the native PE
entrypoint on x86
- Avoid returning EFI_SUCCESS when aborting on an out-of-memory
condition
- Cosmetic tweak for arm64 KASLR loading logic"

Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:
"The biggest part is the virtual CPU hotplug that touches ACPI,
irqchip. We also have some GICv3 optimisation for pseudo-NMIs that has
been queued via the arm64 tree. Otherwise the usual perf updates,
kselftest, various small cleanups.
Core:
- Virtual CPU hotplug support for arm64 ACPI systems
- cpufeature infrastructure cleanups and making the FEAT_ECBHB ID
bits visible to guests
- CPU errata: expand the speculative SSBS workaround to more CPUs
- GICv3, use compile-time PMR values: optimise the way regular IRQs
are masked/unmasked when GICv3 pseudo-NMIs are used, removing the
need for a static key in fast paths by using a priority value
chosen dynamically at boot time
ACPI:
- 'acpi=nospcr' option to disable SPCR as default console for arm64
- Move some ACPI code (cpuidle, FFH) to drivers/acpi/arm64/
Perf updates:
- Rework of the IMX PMU driver to enable support for I.MX95
- Enable support for tertiary match groups in the CMN PMU driver
- Initial refactoring of the CPU PMU code to prepare for the fixed
instruction counter introduced by Arm v9.4
- Add missing PMU driver MODULE_DESCRIPTION() strings
- Hook up DT compatibles for recent CPU PMUs
Kselftest updates:
- Kernel mode NEON fp-stress
- Cleanups, spelling mistakes
Miscellaneous:
- arm64 Documentation update with a minor clarification on TBI
- Fix missing IPI statistics
- Implement raw_smp_processor_id() using thread_info rather than a
per-CPU variable (better code generation)
- Make MTE checking of in-kernel asynchronous tag faults conditional
on KASAN being enabled
- Minor cleanups, typos"

PCIe ACS settings control the level of isolation and the possible P2P paths
between devices. With greater isolation the kernel will create smaller
iommu_groups and with less isolation there is more HW that can achieve P2P
transfers. From a virtualization perspective all devices in the same
iommu_group must be assigned to the same VM as they lack security
isolation.
There is no way for the kernel to automatically know the correct ACS
settings for any given system and workload. Existing command line options
(e.g., disable_acs_redir) allow only for large scale change, disabling all
isolation, but this is not sufficient for more complex cases.
Add a kernel command-line option 'config_acs' to directly control all the
ACS bits for specific devices, which allows the operator to setup the right
level of isolation to achieve the desired P2P configuration. The
definition is future proof; when new ACS bits are added to the spec the
open syntax can be extended.
ACS needs to be setup early in the kernel boot as the ACS settings affect
how iommu_groups are formed. iommu_group formation is a one time event
during initial device discovery, so changing ACS bits after kernel boot can
result in an inaccurate view of the iommu_groups compared to the current
isolation configuration.
ACS applies to PCIe Downstream Ports and multi-function devices. The
default ACS settings are strict and deny any direct traffic between two
functions. This results in the smallest iommu_group the HW can support.
Frequently these values result in slow or non-working P2PDMA.
ACS offers a range of security choices controlling how traffic is
allowed to go directly between two devices. Some popular choices:
- Full prevention
- Translated requests can be direct, with various options
- Asymmetric direct traffic, A can reach B but not the reverse
- All traffic can be direct
Along with some other less common ones for special topologies.
The intention is that this option would be used with expert knowledge of
the HW capability and workload to achieve the desired configuration.

Implement ieee754 NAN2008 emulation mode.
When this mode is enabled, kernel will accept ELF file
compiled for both NaN 2008 and NaN legacy, but if hardware
does not have capability to match ELF's NaN mode, __own_fpu
will fail for corresponding thread and fpuemu will then kick
in.
This mode trade performance for correctness, while maintaining
support for both NaN mode regardless of hardware capability.
It is useful for multilib installation that have both types
of binary exist in system.

The xen_nopvspin boot parameter is deprecated since 2019. nopvspin
can be used instead.
Remove the xen_nopvspin boot parameter and replace the xen_pvspin
variable use cases with nopvspin.
This requires to move the nopvspin variable out of the .initdata
section, as it needs to be accessed for cpuhotplug, too.

Today Xen multicall debugging needs to be enabled via modifying a
define in a source file for getting debug data of multicall errors
encountered by users.
Switch multicall debugging to depend on a boot parameter "xen_mc_debug"
instead, enabling affected users to boot with the new parameter set in
order to get better diagnostics.
With debugging enabled print the following information in case at least
one of the batched calls failed:
- all calls of the batch with operation, result and caller
- all parameters of each call
- all parameters stored in the multicall data for each call
