If CONFIG_RANDOM_TRUST_CPU is set, the RNG initializes using RDRAND.
But, the user can disable (or enable) this behavior by setting
`random.trust_cpu=0/1` on the kernel command line. This allows system
builders to do reasonable things while avoiding howls from tinfoil
hatters. (Or vice versa.)
CONFIG_RANDOM_TRUST_BOOTLOADER is basically the same thing, but regards
the seed passed via EFI or device tree, which might come from RDRAND or
a TPM or somewhere else. In order to allow distros to more easily enable
this while avoiding those same howls (or vice versa), this commit adds
the corresponding `random.trust_bootloader=0/1` toggle.

The panic_print setting allows users to collect more information in a
panic event, like memory stats, tasks, CPUs backtraces, etc. This is an
interesting debug mechanism, but currently the print event happens *after*
kmsg_dump(), meaning that pstore, for example, cannot collect a dmesg with
the panic_print extra information.
This patch changes that in 2 steps:
(a) The panic_print setting allows to replay the existing kernel log
buffer to the console (bit 5), besides the extra information dump.
This functionality makes sense only at the end of the panic()
function. So, we hereby allow to distinguish the two situations by a
new boolean parameter in the function panic_print_sys_info().
(b) With the above change, we can safely call panic_print_sys_info()
before kmsg_dump(), allowing to dump the extra information when using
pstore or other kmsg dumpers.
The additional messages from panic_print could overwrite the oldest
messages when the buffer is full. The only reasonable solution is to use
a large enough log buffer, hence we added an advice into the kernel
parameters documentation about that.

Currently the "panic_print" parameter/sysctl allows some interesting debug
information to be printed during a panic event. This is useful for
example in cases the user cannot kdump due to resource limits, or if the
user collects panic logs in a serial output (or pstore) and prefers a fast
reboot instead of a kdump.
Happens that currently there's no way to see all CPUs backtraces in a
panic using "panic_print" on architectures that support that. We do have
"oops_all_cpu_backtrace" sysctl, but although partially overlapping in the
functionality, they are orthogonal in nature: "panic_print" is a panic
tuning (and we have panics without oopses, like direct calls to panic() or
maybe other paths that don't go through oops_enter() function), and the
original purpose of "oops_all_cpu_backtrace" is to provide more
information on oopses for cases in which the users desire to continue
running the kernel even after an oops, i.e., used in non-panic scenarios.
So, we hereby introduce an additional bit for "panic_print" to allow
dumping the CPUs backtraces during a panic event.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace
Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
- New user_events interface. User space can register an event with the
kernel describing the format of the event. Then it will receive a
byte in a page mapping that it can check against. A privileged task
can then enable that event like any other event, which will change
the mapped byte to true, telling the user space application to start
writing the event to the tracing buffer.
- Add new "ftrace_boot_snapshot" kernel command line parameter. When
set, the tracing buffer will be saved in the snapshot buffer at boot
up when the kernel hands things over to user space. This will keep
the traces that happened at boot up available even if user space boot
up has tracing as well.
- Have TRACE_EVENT_ENUM() also update trace event field type
descriptions. Thus if a static array defines its size with an enum,
the user space trace event parsers can still know how to parse that
array.
- Add new TRACE_CUSTOM_EVENT() macro. This acts the same as the
TRACE_EVENT() macro, but will attach to an existing tracepoint. This
will make one tracepoint be able to trace different content and not
be stuck at only what the original TRACE_EVENT() macro exports.
- Fixes to tracing error logging.
- Better saving of cmdlines to PIDs when tracing (use the wakeup events
for mapping).

Patch series "Free the 2nd vmemmap page associated with each HugeTLB
page", v7.
This series can minimize the overhead of struct page for 2MB HugeTLB
pages significantly. It further reduces the overhead of struct page by
12.5% for a 2MB HugeTLB compared to the previous approach, which means
2GB per 1TB HugeTLB. It is a nice gain. Comments and reviews are
welcome. Thanks.
The main implementation and details can refer to the commit log of patch
1. In this series, I have changed the following four helpers, the
following table shows the impact of the overhead of those helpers.
+------------------+-----------------------+
| APIs | head page | tail page |
+------------------+-----------+-----------+
| PageHead() | Y | N |
+------------------+-----------+-----------+
| PageTail() | Y | N |
+------------------+-----------+-----------+
| PageCompound() | N | N |
+------------------+-----------+-----------+
| compound_head() | Y | N |
+------------------+-----------+-----------+
Y: Overhead is increased.
N: Overhead is _NOT_ increased.
It shows that the overhead of those helpers on a tail page don't change
between "hugetlb_free_vmemmap=on" and "hugetlb_free_vmemmap=off". But the
overhead on a head page will be increased when "hugetlb_free_vmemmap=on"
(except PageCompound()). So I believe that Matthew Wilcox's folio series
will help with this.
The users of PageHead() and PageTail() are much less than compound_head()
and most users of PageTail() are VM_BUG_ON(), so I have done some tests
about the overhead of compound_head() on head pages.
I have tested the overhead of calling compound_head() on a head page,
which is 2.11ns (Measure the call time of 10 million times
compound_head(), and then average).
For a head page whose address is not aligned with PAGE_SIZE or a
non-compound page, the overhead of compound_head() is 2.54ns which is
increased by 20%. For a head page whose address is aligned with
PAGE_SIZE, the overhead of compound_head() is 2.97ns which is increased by
40%. Most pages are the former. I do not think the overhead is
significant since the overhead of compound_head() itself is low.
This patch (of 5):
This patch minimizes the overhead of struct page for 2MB HugeTLB pages
significantly. It further reduces the overhead of struct page by 12.5%
for a 2MB HugeTLB compared to the previous approach, which means 2GB per
1TB HugeTLB (2MB type).
After the feature of "Free sonme vmemmap pages of HugeTLB page" is
enabled, the mapping of the vmemmap addresses associated with a 2MB
HugeTLB page becomes the figure below.
HugeTLB struct pages(8 pages) page frame(8 pages)
+-----------+ ---virt_to_page---> +-----------+ mapping to +-----------+---> PG_head
| | | 0 | -------------> | 0 |
| | +-----------+ +-----------+
| | | 1 | -------------> | 1 |
| | +-----------+ +-----------+
| | | 2 | ----------------^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^
| | +-----------+ | | | | |
| | | 3 | ------------------+ | | | |
| | +-----------+ | | | |
| | | 4 | --------------------+ | | |
| 2MB | +-----------+ | | |
| | | 5 | ----------------------+ | |
| | +-----------+ | |
| | | 6 | ------------------------+ |
| | +-----------+ |
| | | 7 | --------------------------+
| | +-----------+
| |
| |
| |
+-----------+
As we can see, the 2nd vmemmap page frame (indexed by 1) is reused and
remaped. However, the 2nd vmemmap page frame is also can be freed to
the buddy allocator, then we can change the mapping from the figure
above to the figure below.
HugeTLB struct pages(8 pages) page frame(8 pages)
+-----------+ ---virt_to_page---> +-----------+ mapping to +-----------+---> PG_head
| | | 0 | -------------> | 0 |
| | +-----------+ +-----------+
| | | 1 | ---------------^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^
| | +-----------+ | | | | | |
| | | 2 | -----------------+ | | | | |
| | +-----------+ | | | | |
| | | 3 | -------------------+ | | | |
| | +-----------+ | | | |
| | | 4 | ---------------------+ | | |
| 2MB | +-----------+ | | |
| | | 5 | -----------------------+ | |
| | +-----------+ | |
| | | 6 | -------------------------+ |
| | +-----------+ |
| | | 7 | ---------------------------+
| | +-----------+
| |
| |
| |
+-----------+
After we do this, all tail vmemmap pages (1-7) are mapped to the head
vmemmap page frame (0). In other words, there are more than one page
struct with PG_head associated with each HugeTLB page. We __know__ that
there is only one head page struct, the tail page structs with PG_head are
fake head page structs. We need an approach to distinguish between those
two different types of page structs so that compound_head(), PageHead()
and PageTail() can work properly if the parameter is the tail page struct
but with PG_head.
The following code snippet describes how to distinguish between real and
fake head page struct.
if (test_bit(PG_head, &page->flags)) {
unsigned long head = READ_ONCE(page[1].compound_head);
if (head & 1) {
if (head == (unsigned long)page + 1)
==> head page struct
else
==> tail page struct
} else
==> head page struct
}
We can safely access the field of the @page[1] with PG_head because the
@page is a compound page composed with at least two contiguous pages.

Add ftrace_boot_snapshot kernel parameter that will take a snapshot at the
end of boot up just before switching over to user space (it happens during
the kernel freeing of init memory).
This is useful when there's interesting data that can be collected from
kernel start up, but gets overridden by user space start up code. With
this option, the ring buffer content from the boot up traces gets saved in
the snapshot at the end of boot up. This trace can be read from:

Tell about 'console=null|""' and how to use it.
It can be helpful to set (enable) CONFIG_NULL_TTY so that the ttynull
driver is available. This avoids problems with stdin/stdout/stderr of

because it can be used by mistake, see the commit a91bd6223ecd ("Revert

When using KVM_DIRTY_LOG_INITIALLY_SET, huge pages are not
write-protected when dirty logging is enabled on the memslot. Instead
they are write-protected once userspace invokes KVM_CLEAR_DIRTY_LOG for
the first time and only for the specific sub-region being cleared.
Enhance KVM_CLEAR_DIRTY_LOG to also try to split huge pages prior to
write-protecting to avoid causing write-protection faults on vCPU
threads. This also allows userspace to smear the cost of huge page
splitting across multiple ioctls, rather than splitting the entire
memslot as is the case when initially-all-set is not used.

When dirty logging is enabled without initially-all-set, try to split
all huge pages in the memslot down to 4KB pages so that vCPUs do not
have to take expensive write-protection faults to split huge pages.
Eager page splitting is best-effort only. This commit only adds the
support for the TDP MMU, and even there splitting may fail due to out
of memory conditions. Failures to split a huge page is fine from a
correctness standpoint because KVM will always follow up splitting by
write-protecting any remaining huge pages.
Eager page splitting moves the cost of splitting huge pages off of the
vCPU threads and onto the thread enabling dirty logging on the memslot.
This is useful because:
1. Splitting on the vCPU thread interrupts vCPUs execution and is
disruptive to customers whereas splitting on VM ioctl threads can
run in parallel with vCPU execution.
2. Splitting all huge pages at once is more efficient because it does
not require performing VM-exit handling or walking the page table for
every 4KiB page in the memslot, and greatly reduces the amount of
contention on the mmu_lock.
For example, when running dirty_log_perf_test with 96 virtual CPUs, 1GiB
per vCPU, and 1GiB HugeTLB memory, the time it takes vCPUs to write to
all of their memory after dirty logging is enabled decreased by 95% from
2.94s to 0.14s.
Eager Page Splitting is over 100x more efficient than the current
implementation of splitting on fault under the read lock. For example,
taking the same workload as above, Eager Page Splitting reduced the CPU
required to split all huge pages from ~270 CPU-seconds ((2.94s - 0.14s)
* 96 vCPU threads) to only 1.55 CPU-seconds.
Eager page splitting does increase the amount of time it takes to enable
dirty logging since it has split all huge pages. For example, the time
it took to enable dirty logging in the 96GiB region of the
aforementioned test increased from 0.001s to 1.55s.

Allow the rcu_nocbs kernel parameter to be specified just by itself,
without specifying any CPUs. This allows systems administrators to use
"rcu_nocbs" to specify that none of the CPUs are to be offloaded at boot
time, but than any of them may be offloaded at runtime via cpusets.
In contrast, if the "rcu_nocbs" or "nohz_full" kernel parameters are not
specified at all, then not only are none of the CPUs offloaded at boot,
none of them can be offloaded at runtime, either.
While in the area, modernize the description of the "rcuo" kthreads'
naming scheme.

By default, when lock contention is encountered, the RCU Tasks flavors
of RCU switch to using per-CPU queueing. However, if the callback
flood ends, per-CPU queueing continues to be used, which introduces
significant additional overhead, especially for callback invocation,
which fans out a series of workqueue handlers.
This commit therefore switches back to single-queue operation if at the
beginning of a grace period there are very few callbacks. The definition
of "very few" is set by the rcupdate.rcu_task_collapse_lim module
parameter, which defaults to 10. This switch happens in two phases,
with the first phase causing future callbacks to be enqueued on CPU 0's
queue, but with all queues continuing to be checked for grace periods
and callback invocation. The second phase checks to see if an RCU grace
period has elapsed and if all remaining RCU-Tasks callbacks are queued
on CPU 0. If so, only CPU 0 is checked for future grace periods and
callback operation.
Of course, the return of contention anywhere during this process will
result in returning to per-CPU callback queueing.

The rcupdate.rcu_task_enqueue_lim module parameter allows system
administrators to tune the number of callback queues used by the RCU
Tasks flavors. However if callback storms are infrequent, it would
be better to operate with a single queue on a given system unless and
until that system actually needed more queues. Systems not needing
more queues can then avoid the overhead of checking the extra queues
and especially avoid the overhead of fanning workqueue handlers out to
all CPUs to invoke callbacks.
This commit therefore switches to using all the CPUs' callback queues if
call_rcu_tasks_generic() encounters too much lock contention. The amount
of lock contention to tolerate defaults to 100 contended lock acquisitions
per jiffy, and can be adjusted using the new rcupdate.rcu_task_contend_lim
module parameter.
Such switching is undertaken only if the rcupdate.rcu_task_enqueue_lim
module parameter is negative, which is its default value (-1).
This allows savvy systems administrators to set the number of queues
to some known good value and to not have to worry about the kernel doing
any second guessing.

Theoretically, when the hardware signature in FACS changes, the OS
is supposed to gracefully decline to attempt to resume from S4:
"If the signature has changed, OSPM will not restore the system
context and can boot from scratch"
In practice, Windows doesn't do this and many laptop vendors do allow
the signature to change especially when docking/undocking, so it would
be a bad idea to simply comply with the specification by default in the
general case.
However, there are use cases where we do want the compliant behaviour
and we know it's safe. Specifically, when resuming virtual machines where
we know the hypervisor has changed sufficiently that resume will fail.
We really want to be able to *tell* the guest kernel not to try, so it
boots cleanly and doesn't just crash. This patch provides a way to opt
in to the spec-compliant behaviour on the command line.
A follow-up patch may do this automatically for certain "known good"
machines based on a DMI match, or perhaps just for all hypervisor
guests since there's no good reason a hypervisor would change the
hardware_signature that it exposes to guests *unless* it wants them
to obey the ACPI specification.

This commit converts the rcutorture.fwd_progress module parameter from
bool to int, so that it specifies the number of callback-flood kthreads.
Values less than zero specify one kthread per CPU, however, the number of
kthreads executing concurrently is limited to the number of online CPUs.
This commit also reverse the order of the need-resched and callback-flood
operations to cause the callback flooding to happen more nearly at the
same time.

All of the uses of CONFIG_RCU_FAST_NO_HZ=y that I have seen involve
systems with RCU callbacks offloaded. In this situation, all that this
Kconfig option does is slow down idle entry/exit with an additional
allways-taken early exit. If this is the only use case, then this
Kconfig option nothing but an attractive nuisance that needs to go away.
This commit therefore removes the RCU_FAST_NO_HZ Kconfig option.

With the previous patch, there is an extra watchdog read in each retry.
Now the total number of clocksource reads is increased to 4 per iteration.
In order to avoid increasing the clock skew check overhead, the default
maximum number of retries is reduced from 3 to 2 to maintain the same 12
clocksource reads in the worst case.

Enable the memtest functionality and rearrange some code to prevent it
from clobbering the initrd.
The code to implement CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD was conditional on
!defined(CONFIG_SUN3). For simplicity, remove that test on the basis
that m68k_ramdisk.size == 0 on Sun 3. The SLIME source code at
http://sammy.net/sun3/ftp/pub/m68k/sun3/slime/slime-2.0.tar.gz
indicates that no BI_RAMDISK entry is ever passed to the kernel due
to #ifdef 0 around the relevant code.

We've got a bug report about the non-working keyboard on ASUS ZenBook
UX425UA. It seems that the PS/2 device isn't ready immediately at
boot but takes some seconds to get ready. Until now, the only
workaround is to defer the probe, but it's available only when the
driver is a module. However, many distros, including openSUSE as in
the original report, build the PS/2 input drivers into kernel, hence
it won't work easily.
This patch adds the support for the deferred probe for i8042 stuff as
a workaround of the problem above. When the deferred probe mode is
enabled and the device couldn't be probed, it'll be repeated with the
standard deferred probe mechanism.
The deferred probe mode is enabled either via the new option
i8042.probe_defer or via the quirk table entry. As of this patch, the
quirk table contains only ASUS ZenBook UX425UA.
The deferred probe part is based on Fabio's initial work.
