"Apple Fusion Architecture" big.LITTLE switcher, only caches from one of
the clusters can be used at any given moment.

Since objtool's inception, frame pointer warnings have been manually
silenced for __arch_hweight*() to allow those functions' inline asm to
avoid using ASM_CALL_CONSTRAINT.
The potentially dubious reasoning for that decision over nine years ago
was that since !X86_FEATURE_POPCNT is exceedingly rare, it's not worth
hurting the code layout for a function call that will never happen on
the vast majority of systems.
However, those functions actually started using ASM_CALL_CONSTRAINT with
the following commit:
194a613088a8 ("x86/hweight: Use ASM_CALL_CONSTRAINT in inline asm()")
And rightfully so, as it makes the code correct. ASM_CALL_CONSTRAINT
will soon have no effect for non-FP configs anyway.
With ASM_CALL_CONSTRAINT in place, ANNOTATE_IGNORE_ALTERNATIVE no longer
has a purpose for the hweight functions. Remove it.

Prepare for splitting off parts of the SEV core.c source file into a
file that carries code that must tolerate being called from the early
1:1 mapping. This will allow special build-time handling of thise code,
to ensure that it gets generated in a way that is compatible with the
early execution context.
So create a de-facto internal SEV API and put the definitions into
sev-internal.h. No attempt is made to allow this header file to be
included in arbitrary other sources - this is explicitly not the intent.

The startup code that constructs the kernel virtual mapping runs from
the 1:1 mapping of memory itself, and therefore, cannot use absolute
symbol references. Before making changes in subsequent patches, move

all such code will be kept from now on.

Move the early GDT/IDT setup code that runs long before the kernel
virtual mapping is up into arch/x86/boot/startup/, and build it in a way
that ensures that the code tolerates being called from the 1:1 mapping
of memory. The code itself is left unchanged by this patch.
Also tweak the sed symbol matching pattern in the decompressor to match
on lower case 't' or 'b', as these will be emitted by Clang for symbols
with hidden linkage.

RIP_REL_REF() is used in non-PIC C code that is called very early,
before the kernel virtual mapping is up, which is the mapping that the
linker expects. It is currently used in two different ways:
- to refer to the value of a global variable, including as an lvalue in
assignments;
- to take the address of a global variable via the mapping that the code
currently executes at.
The former case is only needed in non-PIC code, as PIC code will never
use absolute symbol references when the address of the symbol is not
being used. But taking the address of a variable in PIC code may still
require extra care, as a stack allocated struct assignment may be
emitted as a memcpy() from a statically allocated copy in .rodata.
For instance, this
void startup_64_setup_gdt_idt(void)
{
struct desc_ptr startup_gdt_descr = {
.address = (__force unsigned long)gdt_page.gdt,
.size = GDT_SIZE - 1,
};
may result in an absolute symbol reference in PIC code, even though the
struct is allocated on the stack and populated at runtime.
To address this case, make rip_rel_ptr() accessible in PIC code, and
update any existing uses where the address of a global variable is
taken using RIP_REL_REF.
Once all code of this nature has been moved into arch/x86/boot/startup
and built with -fPIC, RIP_REL_REF() can be retired, and only
rip_rel_ptr() will remain.

When decoding an instruction or handling a perf event that references an
LDT segment, if we don't have a valid user context, trying to access the
LDT by any means other than SLDT is racy. Certainly, using
current->active_mm is wrong, as active_mm can point to a real user mm when
CR3 and LDTR no longer reference that mm.
Clean up the code. If nmi_uaccess_okay() says we don't have a valid
context, just fail. Otherwise use current->mm.

DCCP was orphaned in 2021 by commit 054c4610bd05 ("MAINTAINERS: dccp:
move Gerrit Renker to CREDITS"), which noted that the last maintainer
had been inactive for five years.
In recent years, it has become a playground for syzbot, and most changes
to DCCP have been odd bug fixes triggered by syzbot. Apart from that,
the only changes have been driven by treewide or networking API updates
or adjustments related to TCP.
Thus, in 2023, we announced we would remove DCCP in 2025 via commit
b144fcaf46d4 ("dccp: Print deprecation notice.").
Since then, only one individual has contacted the netdev mailing list. [0]
There is ongoing research for Multipath DCCP. The repository is hosted
on GitHub [1], and development is not taking place through the upstream
community. While the repository is published under the GPLv2 license,
the scheduling part remains proprietary, with a LICENSE file [2] stating:
"This is not Open Source software."
The researcher mentioned a plan to address the licensing issue, upstream
the patches, and step up as a maintainer, but there has been no further
communication since then.
Maintaining DCCP for a decade without any real users has become a burden.
Therefore, it's time to remove it.
Removing DCCP will also provide significant benefits to TCP. It allows
us to freely reorganize the layout of struct inet_connection_sock, which
is currently shared with DCCP, and optimize it to reduce the number of
cachelines accessed in the TCP fast path.
Note that we keep DCCP netfilter modules as requested. [3]

As long as we had purely EL1 VMs, we could easily update the number
of guest-visible counters by letting userspace write to PMCR_EL0.N.
With VMs started at EL2, PMCR_EL1.N only reflects MDCR_EL2.HPMN,
and we don't have a good way to limit it.
For this purpose, introduce a new PMUv3 attribute that allows
limiting the maximum number of counters. This requires the explicit
selection of a PMU.

Contrary to what the comment says in kvm_pmu_handle_pmcr(),
writing PMCR_EL0.P==1 has the following effects:
<quote>
The event counters affected by this field are:
* All event counters in the first range.
* If any of the following are true, all event counters in the second
range:
- EL2 is disabled or not implemented in the current Security state.
- The PE is executing at EL2 or EL3.
</quote>
where the "first range" represent the counters in the [0..HPMN-1]
range, and the "second range" the counters in the [HPMN..MAX] range.
It so appears that writing P from EL2 should nuke all counters,
and not just the "guest" view. Just do that, and nuke the misleading
comment.

"On a Warm reset, this field resets to the expression NUM_PMU_COUNTERS."
However, it appears we reset it to zero, which is not very useful.
Add a reset helper for MDCR_EL2, and handle the case where userspace
changes the target PMU, which may force us to change HPMN again.

The pmcr_n field obviously refers to PMCR_EL0.N, but is generally used
as the number of counters seen by the guest. Rename it accordingly.

Hypercall detection is failing with xen_hypercall_intel() chosen even on
an AMD processor. Looking at the disassembly, the call to
xen_get_vendor() was removed.
The check for boot_cpu_has(X86_FEATURE_CPUID) was used as a proxy for
the x86_vendor having been set.
When CONFIG_X86_REQUIRED_FEATURE_CPUID=y (the default value), DCE eliminates
the call to xen_get_vendor(). An uninitialized value 0 means
X86_VENDOR_INTEL, so the Intel function is always returned.
Remove the if and always call xen_get_vendor() to avoid this issue.

Reference header files using their canonical form <linux/cacheinfo.h>.
Standardize on CPUID(0xN), instead of CPUID(N), for all standard leaves.
This removes ambiguity and aligns them with their extended counterparts
like CPUID(0x8000001d).

smp_text_poke_batch_finish()
Simplify the alternatives interface some more by moving the
poke_batch_finish check into poke_batch_process and renaming the latter.
The net effect is one less function name to consider when reading the
code.

- No need to cast over to 'struct smp_text_poke_loc *', void * is just fine
for a binary search,
- Use the canonical (a, b) input parameter nomenclature of cmp_func_t
functions and rename the input parameters from (tp, elt) to
(tpl_a, tpl_b).
