Pull workqueue updates from Tejun Heo: "This cycle, a lot of workqueue changes including some that are significant and invasive. - During v6.6 cycle, unbound workqueues were updated so that they are more topology aware and flexible, which among other things improved workqueue behavior on modern multi-L3 CPUs. In the process, commit 636b927eba5b ("workqueue: Make unbound workqueues to use per-cpu pool_workqueues") switched unbound workqueues to use per-CPU frontend pool_workqueues as a part of increasing front-back mapping flexibility. An unwelcome side effect of this change was that this made max concurrency enforcement per-CPU blowing up the maximum number of allowed concurrent executions. I incorrectly assumed that this wouldn't cause practical problems as most unbound workqueue users are self-regulate max concurrency; however, there definitely are which don't (e.g. on IO paths) and the drastic increase in the allowed max concurrency led to noticeable perf regressions in some use cases. This is now addressed by separating out max concurrency enforcement to a separate struct - wq_node_nr_active - which makes @max_active consistently mean system-wide max concurrency regardless of the number of CPUs or (finally) NUMA nodes. This is a rather invasive and, in places, a bit clunky; however, the clunkiness rises from the the inherent requirement to handle the disagreement between the execution locality domain and max concurrency enforcement domain on some modern machines. See commit 5797b1c18919 ("workqueue: Implement system-wide nr_active enforcement for unbound workqueues") for more details. - BH workqueue support is added. They are similar to per-CPU workqueues but execute work items in the softirq context. This is expected to replace tasklet. However, currently, it's missing the ability to disable and enable work items which is needed to convert many tasklet users. To avoid crowding this merge window too much, this will be included in the next merge window. A separate pull request will be sent for the couple conversion patches that are currently pending. - Waiman plugged a long-standing hole in workqueue CPU isolation where ordered workqueues didn't follow wq_unbound_cpumask updates. Ordered workqueues now follow the same rules as other unbound workqueues. - More CPU isolation improvements: Juri fixed another deficit in workqueue isolation where unbound rescuers don't respect wq_unbound_cpumask. Leonardo fixed delayed_work timers firing on isolated CPUs. - Other misc changes" * tag 'wq-for-6.9' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq: (54 commits) workqueue: Drain BH work items on hot-unplugged CPUs workqueue: Introduce from_work() helper for cleaner callback declarations workqueue: Control intensive warning threshold through cmdline workqueue: Make @flags handling consistent across set_work_data() and friends workqueue: Remove clear_work_data() workqueue: Factor out work_grab_pending() from __cancel_work_sync() workqueue: Clean up enum work_bits and related constants workqueue: Introduce work_cancel_flags workqueue: Use variable name irq_flags for saving local irq flags workqueue: Reorganize flush and cancel[_sync] functions workqueue: Rename __cancel_work_timer() to __cancel_timer_sync() workqueue: Use rcu_read_lock_any_held() instead of rcu_read_lock_held() workqueue: Cosmetic changes workqueue, irq_work: Build fix for !CONFIG_IRQ_WORK workqueue: Fix queue_work_on() with BH workqueues async: Use a dedicated unbound workqueue with raised min_active workqueue: Implement workqueue_set_min_active() workqueue: Fix kernel-doc comment of unplug_oldest_pwq() workqueue: Bind unbound workqueue rescuer to wq_unbound_cpumask kernel/workqueue: Let rescuers follow unbound wq cpumask changes ...

Pull Rust updates from Miguel Ojeda: "Another routine one in terms of features. We got two version upgrades this time, but in terms of lines, 'alloc' changes are not very large. Toolchain and infrastructure: - Upgrade to Rust 1.76.0 This time around, due to how the kernel and Rust schedules have aligned, there are two upgrades in fact.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs Pull ntfs update from Christian Brauner: "This removes the old ntfs driver. The new ntfs3 driver is a full replacement that was merged over two years ago. We've went through various userspace and either they use ntfs3 or they use the fuse version of ntfs and thus build neither ntfs nor ntfs3. I think that's a clear sign that we should risk removing the legacy ntfs driver. Quoting from Arch Linux and Debian: - Debian does neither build the legacy ntfs nor the new ntfs3: "Not currently built with Debian's kernel packages, 'ntfs' has been symlinked to 'ntfs-3g' as it relates to fstab and mount commands. Debian kernels are built without support of the ntfs3 driver developed by Paragon Software." (cf. [2]) - Archlinux provides ntfs3 as their default since 5.15: "All officially supported kernels with versions 5.15 or newer are built with CONFIG_NTFS3_FS=m and thus support it. Before 5.15, NTFS read and write support is provided by the NTFS-3G FUSE file system." (cf. [1]). It's unmaintained apart from various odd fixes as well. Worst case we have to reintroduce it if someone really has a valid dependency on it. But it's worth trying to see whether we can remove it" Link: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/NTFS [1] Link: https://wiki.debian.org/NTFS [2] * tag 'vfs-6.9.ntfs' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs: fs: remove NTFS classic from docum. index fs: Remove NTFS classic

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner: "Misc features, cleanups, and fixes for vfs and individual filesystems. Features: - Support idmapped mounts for hugetlbfs. - Add RWF_NOAPPEND flag for pwritev2(). This allows us to fix a bug where the passed offset is ignored if the file is O_APPEND. The new flag allows a caller to enforce that the offset is honored to conform to posix even if the file was opened in append mode. - Move i_mmap_rwsem in struct address_space to avoid false sharing between i_mmap and i_mmap_rwsem. - Convert efs, qnx4, and coda to use the new mount api. - Add a generic is_dot_dotdot() helper that's used by various filesystems and the VFS code instead of open-coding it multiple times. - Recently we've added stable offsets which allows stable ordering when iterating directories exported through NFS on e.g., tmpfs filesystems. Originally an xarray was used for the offset map but that caused slab fragmentation issues over time. This switches the offset map to the maple tree which has a dense mode that handles this scenario a lot better. Includes tests. - Finally merge the case-insensitive improvement series Gabriel has been working on for a long time. This cleanly propagates case insensitive operations through ->s_d_op which in turn allows us to remove the quite ugly generic_set_encrypted_ci_d_ops() operations. It also improves performance by trying a case-sensitive comparison first and then fallback to case-insensitive lookup if that fails. This also fixes a bug where overlayfs would be able to be mounted over a case insensitive directory which would lead to all sort of odd behaviors. Cleanups: - Make file_dentry() a simple accessor now that ->d_real() is simplified because of the backing file work we did the last two cycles. - Use the dedicated file_mnt_idmap helper in ntfs3. - Use smp_load_acquire/store_release() in the i_size_read/write helpers and thus remove the hack to handle i_size reads in the filemap code. - The SLAB_MEM_SPREAD is a nop now. Remove it from various places in fs/ - It's no longer necessary to perform a second built-in initramfs unpack call because we retain the contents of the previous extraction. Remove it. - Now that we have removed various allocators kfree_rcu() always works with kmem caches and kmalloc(). So simplify various places that only use an rcu callback in order to handle the kmem cache case. - Convert the pipe code to use a lockdep comparison function instead of open-coding the nesting making lockdep validation easier. - Move code into fs-writeback.c that was located in a header but can be made static as it's only used in that one file. - Rewrite the alignment checking iterators for iovec and bvec to be easier to read, and also significantly more compact in terms of generated code. This saves 270 bytes of text on x86-64 (with clang-18) and 224 bytes on arm64 (with gcc-13). In profiles it also saves a bit of time for the same workload. - Switch various places to use KMEM_CACHE instead of kmem_cache_create(). - Use inode_set_ctime_to_ts() in inode_set_ctime_current() - Use kzalloc() in name_to_handle_at() to avoid kernel infoleak. - Various smaller cleanups for eventfds. Fixes: - Fix various comments and typos, and unneeded initializations. - Fix stack allocation hack for clang in the select code. - Improve dump_mapping() debug code on a best-effort basis. - Fix build errors in various selftests. - Avoid wrap-around instrumentation in various places. - Don't allow user namespaces without an idmapping to be used for idmapped mounts. - Fix sysv sb_read() call. - Fix fallback implementation of the get_name() export operation" * tag 'vfs-6.9.misc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs: (70 commits) hugetlbfs: support idmapped mounts qnx4: convert qnx4 to use the new mount api fs: use inode_set_ctime_to_ts to set inode ctime to current time libfs: Drop generic_set_encrypted_ci_d_ops ubifs: Configure dentry operations at dentry-creation time f2fs: Configure dentry operations at dentry-creation time ext4: Configure dentry operations at dentry-creation time libfs: Add helper to choose dentry operations at mount-time libfs: Merge encrypted_ci_dentry_ops and ci_dentry_ops fscrypt: Drop d_revalidate once the key is added fscrypt: Drop d_revalidate for valid dentries during lookup fscrypt: Factor out a helper to configure the lookup dentry ovl: Always reject mounting over case-insensitive directories libfs: Attempt exact-match comparison first during casefolded lookup efs: remove SLAB_MEM_SPREAD flag usage jfs: remove SLAB_MEM_SPREAD flag usage minix: remove SLAB_MEM_SPREAD flag usage openpromfs: remove SLAB_MEM_SPREAD flag usage proc: remove SLAB_MEM_SPREAD flag usage qnx6: remove SLAB_MEM_SPREAD flag usage ...

2024-03-06dpll: move all dpll<>netdev helpers to dpll codeJakub Kicinski1-1/+1
Older versions of GCC really want to know the full definition of the type involved in rcu_assign_pointer(). struct dpll_pin is defined in a local header, net/core can't reach it. Move all the netdev <> dpll code into dpll, where the type is known. Otherwise we'd need multiple function calls to jump between the compilation units. This is the same problem the commit under fixes was trying to address, but with rcu_assign_pointer() not rcu_dereference(). Some of the exports are not needed, networking core can't be a module, we only need exports for the helpers used by drivers.

2024-03-01rust: upgrade to Rust 1.76.0Miguel Ojeda1-1/+1
This is the next upgrade to the Rust toolchain, from 1.75.0 to 1.76.0 (i.e. the latest) [1]. See the upgrade policy [2] and the comments on the first upgrade in commit 3ed03f4da06e ("rust: upgrade to Rust 1.68.2"). # Unstable features No unstable features that we use were stabilized in Rust 1.76.0. The only unstable features allowed to be used outside the `kernel` crate are still `new_uninit,offset_of`, though other code to be upstreamed may increase the list. Please see [3] for details. # Required changes `rustc` (and others) now warns when it cannot connect to the Make jobserver, thus mark those invocations as recursive as needed. Please see the previous commit for details. # Other changes Rust 1.76.0 does not emit the `.debug_pub{names,types}` sections anymore for DWARFv4 [4][5]. For instance, in the uncompressed debug info case, this debug information took: samples/rust/rust_minimal.o ~64 KiB (~18% of total object size) rust/kernel.o ~92 KiB (~15%) rust/core.o ~114 KiB ( ~5%) In the compressed debug info (zlib) case: samples/rust/rust_minimal.o ~11 KiB (~6%) rust/kernel.o ~17 KiB (~5%) rust/core.o ~21 KiB (~1.5%) In addition, the `rustc_codegen_gcc` backend now does not emit the `.eh_frame` section when compiling under `-Cpanic=abort` [6], thus removing the need for the patch in the CI to compile the kernel [7]. Moreover, it also now emits the `.comment` section too [6]. # `alloc` upgrade and reviewing The vast majority of changes are due to our `alloc` fork being upgraded at once. There are two kinds of changes to be aware of: the ones coming from upstream, which we should follow as closely as possible, and the updates needed in our added fallible APIs to keep them matching the newer infallible APIs coming from upstream. Instead of taking a look at the diff of this patch, an alternative approach is reviewing a diff of the changes between upstream `alloc` and the kernel's. This allows to easily inspect the kernel additions only, especially to check if the fallible methods we already have still match the infallible ones in the new version coming from upstream. Another approach is reviewing the changes introduced in the additions in the kernel fork between the two versions. This is useful to spot potentially unintended changes to our additions. To apply these approaches, one may follow steps similar to the following to generate a pair of patches that show the differences between upstream Rust and the kernel (for the subset of `alloc` we use) before and after applying this patch: # Get the difference with respect to the old version. git -C rust checkout $(linux/scripts/min-tool-version.sh rustc) git -C linux ls-tree -r --name-only HEAD -- rust/alloc | cut -d/ -f3- | grep -Fv README.md | xargs -IPATH cp rust/library/alloc/src/PATH linux/rust/alloc/PATH git -C linux diff --patch-with-stat --summary -R > old.patch git -C linux restore rust/alloc # Apply this patch. git -C linux am rust-upgrade.patch # Get the difference with respect to the new version. git -C rust checkout $(linux/scripts/min-tool-version.sh rustc) git -C linux ls-tree -r --name-only HEAD -- rust/alloc | cut -d/ -f3- | grep -Fv README.md | xargs -IPATH cp rust/library/alloc/src/PATH linux/rust/alloc/PATH git -C linux diff --patch-with-stat --summary -R > new.patch git -C linux restore rust/alloc Now one may check the `new.patch` to take a look at the additions (first approach) or at the difference between those two patches (second approach). For the latter, a side-by-side tool is recommended.

2024-02-22workqueue: Control intensive warning threshold through cmdlineXuewen Yan1-0/+9
When CONFIG_WQ_CPU_INTENSIVE_REPORT is set, the kernel will report the work functions which violate the intensive_threshold_us repeatedly. And now, only when the violate times exceed 4 and is a power of 2, the kernel warning could be triggered. However, sometimes, even if a long work execution time occurs only once, it may cause other work to be delayed for a long time. This may also cause some problems sometimes. In order to freely control the threshold of warninging, a boot argument is added so that the user can control the warning threshold to be printed. At the same time, keep the exponential backoff to prevent reporting too much. By default, the warning threshold is 4. tj: Updated kernel-parameters.txt description.

2024-02-14rcu: Provide a boot time parameter to control lazy RCUQais Yousef1-0/+5
To allow more flexible arrangements while still provide a single kernel for distros, provide a boot time parameter to enable/disable lazy RCU. Specify: rcutree.enable_rcu_lazy=[y|1|n|0] Which also requires rcu_nocbs=all at boot time to enable/disable lazy RCU. To disable it by default at build time when CONFIG_RCU_LAZY=y, the new CONFIG_RCU_LAZY_DEFAULT_OFF can be used.

2024-02-14doc: Add EARLY flag to early-parsed kernel boot parametersPaul E. McKenney2-235/+250
Kernel boot parameters declared with early_param() are parsed before embedded parameters are extracted from initrd, and early_param() parameters are not helpful when embedded in initrd. Therefore, mark early_param() kernel boot parameters with "EARLY" in kernel-parameters.txt. The following early_param() calls declare kernel boot parameters that are undocumented: early_param("atmel.pm_modes", at91_pm_modes_select); early_param("mem_fclk_21285", early_fclk); early_param("ecc", early_ecc); early_param("cachepolicy", early_cachepolicy); early_param("nodebugmon", early_debug_disable); early_param("kfence.sample_interval", parse_kfence_early_init); early_param("additional_cpus", setup_additional_cpus); early_param("stram_pool", atari_stram_setup); early_param("disable_octeon_edac", disable_octeon_edac); early_param("rd_start", rd_start_early); early_param("rd_size", rd_size_early); early_param("coherentio", setcoherentio); early_param("nocoherentio", setnocoherentio); early_param("fadump", early_fadump_param); early_param("fadump_reserve_mem", early_fadump_reserve_mem); early_param("no_stf_barrier", handle_no_stf_barrier); early_param("no_rfi_flush", handle_no_rfi_flush); early_param("smt-enabled", early_smt_enabled); early_param("ppc_pci_reset_phbs", pci_reset_phbs_setup); early_param("ps3fb", early_parse_ps3fb); early_param("ps3flash", early_parse_ps3flash); early_param("novx", disable_vector_extension); early_param("nobp", nobp_setup_early); early_param("nospec", nospec_setup_early); early_param("possible_cpus", _setup_possible_cpus); early_param("stp", early_parse_stp); early_param("nopfault", nopfault); early_param("nmi_mode", nmi_mode_setup); early_param("sh_mv", early_parse_mv); early_param("pmb", early_pmb); early_param("hvirq", early_hvirq_major); early_param("cfi", cfi_parse_cmdline); early_param("disableapic", setup_disableapic); early_param("noapictimer", parse_disable_apic_timer); early_param("disable_cpu_apicid", apic_set_disabled_cpu_apicid); early_param("uv_memblksize", parse_mem_block_size); early_param("retbleed", retbleed_parse_cmdline); early_param("no-kvmclock-vsyscall", parse_no_kvmclock_vsyscall); early_param("update_mptable", update_mptable_setup); early_param("alloc_mptable", parse_alloc_mptable_opt); early_param("possible_cpus", _setup_possible_cpus); early_param("lsmsi", early_parse_ls_scfg_msi); early_param("nokgdbroundup", opt_nokgdbroundup); early_param("kgdbcon", opt_kgdb_con); early_param("kasan", early_kasan_flag); early_param("kasan.mode", early_kasan_mode); early_param("kasan.vmalloc", early_kasan_flag_vmalloc); early_param("kasan.page_alloc.sample", early_kasan_flag_page_alloc_sample); early_param("kasan.page_alloc.sample.order", early_kasan_flag_page_alloc_sample_order); early_param("kasan.fault", early_kasan_fault); early_param("kasan.stacktrace", early_kasan_flag_stacktrace); early_param("kasan.stack_ring_size", early_kasan_flag_stack_ring_size); early_param("accept_memory", accept_memory_parse); early_param("page_table_check", early_page_table_check_param); sh_early_platform_init("earlytimer", &sh_cmt_device_driver); early_param_on_off("gbpages", "nogbpages", direct_gbpages, CONFIG_X86_DIRECT_GBPAGES); These are not necessarily bugs, given that some kernel boot parameters are intended for deep debugging rather than general use. This work does not cover all of the kernel boot parameters declared using cmdline_find_option() and cmdline_find_option_bool(). If these are in fact guaranteed to be early (which appears to be the case), they can be added in a later version of this patch. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

2024-02-14doc: Make checklist.rst note that spinlocks are implied RCU readersPaul E. McKenney1-2/+3
In kernels built with CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT=n, spinlock critical sections are RCU readers because they disable preemption. However, they are also RCU readers in CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT=y because in that case the locking primitives contain rcu_read_lock() and rcu_read_unlock(). Therefore, upgrade checklist.rst to document this non-obvious case. While in the area, fix a typo by changing "read-side critical" to "read-side critical section". Signed-off-by: Paul E.
