Pull io_uring fixes from Jens Axboe:
- Fix for io-wq not always honoring REQ_F_NOWAIT, if it was set and
punted directly (eg via DRAIN) (me)
- Capability check fix (Ondrej)
- Regression fix for the mmap changes that went into 6.4, which
apparently broke IA64 (Helge)
* tag 'io_uring-6.5-2023-07-21' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux:
ia64: mmap: Consider pgoff when searching for free mapping
io_uring: Fix io_uring mmap() by using architecture-provided get_unmapped_area()
io_uring: treat -EAGAIN for REQ_F_NOWAIT as final for io-wq
io_uring: don't audit the capability check in io_uring_create()

IA64 is the only architecture which does not consider the pgoff value when
searching for a possible free memory region with vm_unmapped_area().
Adding this seems to have no negative side effect on IA64, so add it now
to make IA64 consistent with all other architectures.

This modifies our user mode stack expansion code to always take the
mmap_lock for writing before modifying the VM layout.
It's actually something we always technically should have done, but
because we didn't strictly need it, we were being lazy ("opportunistic"
sounds so much better, doesn't it?) about things, and had this hack in
place where we would extend the stack vma in-place without doing the
proper locking.
And it worked fine. We just needed to change vm_start (or, in the case
of grow-up stacks, vm_end) and together with some special ad-hoc locking
using the anon_vma lock and the mm->page_table_lock, it all was fairly
straightforward.
That is, it was all fine until Ruihan Li pointed out that now that the
vma layout uses the maple tree code, we *really* don't just change
vm_start and vm_end any more, and the locking really is broken. Oops.
It's not actually all _that_ horrible to fix this once and for all, and
do proper locking, but it's a bit painful. We have basically three
different cases of stack expansion, and they all work just a bit
differently:
- the common and obvious case is the page fault handling. It's actually
fairly simple and straightforward, except for the fact that we have
something like 24 different versions of it, and you end up in a maze
of twisty little passages, all alike.
- the simplest case is the execve() code that creates a new stack.
There are no real locking concerns because it's all in a private new
VM that hasn't been exposed to anybody, but lockdep still can end up
unhappy if you get it wrong.
- and finally, we have GUP and page pinning, which shouldn't really be
expanding the stack in the first place, but in addition to execve()
we also use it for ptrace(). And debuggers do want to possibly access
memory under the stack pointer and thus need to be able to expand the
stack as a special case.
None of these cases are exactly complicated, but the page fault case in
particular is just repeated slightly differently many many times. And
ia64 in particular has a fairly complicated situation where you can have
both a regular grow-down stack _and_ a special grow-up stack for the
register backing store.
So to make this slightly more manageable, the bulk of this series is to
first create a helper function for the most common page fault case, and
convert all the straightforward architectures to it.
Thus the new 'lock_mm_and_find_vma()' helper function, which ends up
being used by x86, arm, powerpc, mips, riscv, alpha, arc, csky, hexagon,
loongarch, nios2, sh, sparc32, and xtensa. So we not only convert more
than half the architectures, we now have more shared code and avoid some
of those twisty little passages.
And largely due to this common helper function, the full diffstat of
this series ends up deleting more lines than it adds.
That still leaves eight architectures (ia64, m68k, microblaze, openrisc,
parisc, s390, sparc64 and um) that end up doing 'expand_stack()'
manually because they are doing something slightly different from the
normal pattern. Along with the couple of special cases in execve() and
GUP.
So there's a couple of patches that first create 'locked' helper
versions of the stack expansion functions, so that there's a obvious
path forward in the conversion. The execve() case is then actually
pretty simple, and is a nice cleanup from our old "grow-up stackls are
special, because at execve time even they grow down".
The #ifdef CONFIG_STACK_GROWSUP in that code just goes away, because
it's just more straightforward to write out the stack expansion there
manually, instead od having get_user_pages_remote() do it for us in some
situations but not others and have to worry about locking rules for GUP.
And the final step is then to just convert the remaining odd cases to a
new world order where 'expand_stack()' is called with the mmap_lock held
for reading, but where it might drop it and upgrade it to a write, only
to return with it held for reading (in the success case) or with it
completely dropped (in the failure case).
In the process, we remove all the stack expansion from GUP (where
dropping the lock wouldn't be ok without special rules anyway), and add
it in manually to __access_remote_vm() for ptrace().
Thanks to Adrian Glaubitz and Frank Scheiner who tested the ia64 cases.
Everything else here felt pretty straightforward, but the ia64 rules for
stack expansion are really quite odd and very different from everything
else. Also thanks to Vegard Nossum who caught me getting one of those
odd conditions entirely the wrong way around.
Anyway, I think I want to actually move all the stack expansion code to
a whole new file of its own, rather than have it split up between
mm/mmap.c and mm/memory.c, but since this will have to be backported to
the initial maple tree vma introduction anyway, I tried to keep the
patches _fairly_ minimal.
Also, while I don't think it's valid to expand the stack from GUP, the
final patch in here is a "warn if some crazy GUP user wants to try to
expand the stack" patch. That one will be reverted before the final
release, but it's left to catch any odd cases during the merge window
and release candidates.

- Introduce cmpxchg128() -- aka. the demise of cmpxchg_double()
The cmpxchg128() family of functions is basically & functionally the

Instead of a 6-parameter horror that forced u128 - u64/u64-halves

The generated definitions are much cleaner now, and come with

This finishes the job of always holding the mmap write lock when
extending the user stack vma, and removes the 'write_locked' argument
from the vm helper functions again.
For some cases, we just avoid expanding the stack at all: drivers and
page pinning really shouldn't be extending any stacks. Let's see if any
strange users really wanted that.
It's worth noting that architectures that weren't converted to the new
lock_mm_and_find_vma() helper function are left using the legacy
"expand_stack()" function, but it has been changed to drop the mmap_lock
and take it for writing while expanding the vma. This makes it fairly
straightforward to convert the remaining architectures.
As a result of dropping and re-taking the lock, the calling conventions
for this function have also changed, since the old vma may no longer be
valid. So it will now return the new vma if successful, and NULL - and
the lock dropped - if the area could not be extended.

Pull x86 boot updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Initialize FPU late.
Right now FPU is initialized very early during boot. There is no real
requirement to do so. The only requirement is to have it done before
alternatives are patched.
That's done in check_bugs() which does way more than what the function
name suggests.
So first rename check_bugs() to arch_cpu_finalize_init() which makes
it clear what this is about.
Move the invocation of arch_cpu_finalize_init() earlier in
start_kernel() as it has to be done before fork_init() which needs to
know the FPU register buffer size.
With those prerequisites the FPU initialization can be moved into
arch_cpu_finalize_init(), which removes it from the early and fragile

Commit 7b4537199a4a ("kbuild: link symbol CRCs at final link, removing
CONFIG_MODULE_REL_CRCS") made modpost output CRCs in the same way
whether the EXPORT_SYMBOL() is placed in *.c or *.S.
For further cleanups, this commit applies a similar approach to the
entire data structure of EXPORT_SYMBOL().
The EXPORT_SYMBOL() compilation is split into two stages.
When a source file is compiled, EXPORT_SYMBOL() will be converted into
a dummy symbol in the .export_symbol section.
For example,
EXPORT_SYMBOL(foo);
EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS_GPL(bar, BAR_NAMESPACE);
will be encoded into the following assembly code:
.section ".export_symbol","a"
__export_symbol_foo:
.asciz "" /* license */
.asciz "" /* name space */
.balign 8
.quad foo /* symbol reference */
.previous
.section ".export_symbol","a"
__export_symbol_bar:
.asciz "GPL" /* license */
.asciz "BAR_NAMESPACE" /* name space */
.balign 8
.quad bar /* symbol reference */
.previous
They are mere markers to tell modpost the name, license, and namespace
of the symbols. They will be dropped from the final vmlinux and modules
because the *(.export_symbol) will go into /DISCARD/ in the linker script.
Then, modpost extracts all the information about EXPORT_SYMBOL() from the
.export_symbol section, and generates the final C code:
KSYMTAB_FUNC(foo, "", "");
KSYMTAB_FUNC(bar, "_gpl", "BAR_NAMESPACE");
KSYMTAB_FUNC() (or KSYMTAB_DATA() if it is data) is expanded to struct
kernel_symbol that will be linked to the vmlinux or a module.
With this change, EXPORT_SYMBOL() works in the same way for *.c and *.S
files, providing the following benefits.
[1] Deprecate EXPORT_DATA_SYMBOL()
In the old days, EXPORT_SYMBOL() was only available in C files. To export
a symbol in *.S, EXPORT_SYMBOL() was placed in a separate *.c file.
arch/arm/kernel/armksyms.c is one example written in the classic manner.
Commit 22823ab419d8 ("EXPORT_SYMBOL() for asm") removed this limitation.
Since then, EXPORT_SYMBOL() can be placed close to the symbol definition
in *.S files. It was a nice improvement.
However, as that commit mentioned, you need to use EXPORT_DATA_SYMBOL()
for data objects on some architectures.
In the new approach, modpost checks symbol's type (STT_FUNC or not),
and outputs KSYMTAB_FUNC() or KSYMTAB_DATA() accordingly.
There are only two users of EXPORT_DATA_SYMBOL:
EXPORT_DATA_SYMBOL_GPL(empty_zero_page) (arch/ia64/kernel/head.S)
EXPORT_DATA_SYMBOL(ia64_ivt) (arch/ia64/kernel/ivt.S)
They are transformed as follows and output into .vmlinux.export.c
KSYMTAB_DATA(empty_zero_page, "_gpl", "");
KSYMTAB_DATA(ia64_ivt, "", "");
The other EXPORT_SYMBOL users in ia64 assembly are output as
KSYMTAB_FUNC().
EXPORT_DATA_SYMBOL() is now deprecated.
[2] merge <linux/export.h> and <asm-generic/export.h>
There are two similar header implementations:
include/linux/export.h for .c files
include/asm-generic/export.h for .S files
Ideally, the functionality should be consistent between them, but they
tend to diverge.
Commit 8651ec01daed ("module: add support for symbol namespaces.") did
not support the namespace for *.S files.
This commit shifts the essential implementation part to C, which supports
EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS() for *.S files.
<asm/export.h> and <asm-generic/export.h> will remain as a wrapper of
<linux/export.h> for a while.
They will be removed after #include <asm/export.h> directives are all
replaced with #include <linux/export.h>.
[3] Implement CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS in one-pass algorithm (by a later commit)
When CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS is enabled, Kbuild recursively traverses
the directory tree to determine which EXPORT_SYMBOL to trim. If an
EXPORT_SYMBOL turns out to be unused by anyone, Kbuild begins the
second traverse, where some source files are recompiled with their
EXPORT_SYMBOL() tuned into a no-op.
We can do this better now; modpost can selectively emit KSYMTAB entries
that are really used by modules.

Implement framebuffer I/O helpers, such as fb_read*() and fb_write*(),
in the architecture's <asm/fb.h> header file or the generic one.
The common case has been the use of regular I/O functions, such as
__raw_readb() or memset_io(). A few architectures used plain system-
memory reads and writes. Sparc used helpers for its SBus.
The architectures that used special cases provide the same code in
their __raw_*() I/O helpers. So the patch replaces this code with the
__raw_*() functions and moves it to <asm-generic/fb.h> for all
architectures.

Pull sysctl updates from Luis Chamberlain:
"This only does a few sysctl moves from the kernel/sysctl.c file, the
rest of the work has been put towards deprecating two API calls which
incur recursion and prevent us from simplifying the registration
process / saving memory per move. Most of the changes have been
soaking on linux-next since v6.3-rc3.
I've slowed down the kernel/sysctl.c moves due to Matthew Wilcox's
feedback that we should see if we could *save* memory with these moves
instead of incurring more memory. We currently incur more memory since
when we move a syctl from kernel/sysclt.c out to its own file we end
up having to add a new empty sysctl used to register it. To achieve
saving memory we want to allow syctls to be passed without requiring
the end element being empty, and just have our registration process
rely on ARRAY_SIZE(). Without this, supporting both styles of sysctls
would make the sysctl registration pretty brittle, hard to read and
maintain as can be seen from Meng Tang's efforts to do just this [0].
Fortunately, in order to use ARRAY_SIZE() for all sysctl registrations
also implies doing the work to deprecate two API calls which use
recursion in order to support sysctl declarations with subdirectories.
And so during this development cycle quite a bit of effort went into
this deprecation effort. I've annotated the following two APIs are
deprecated and in few kernel releases we should be good to remove
them:
- register_sysctl_table()
- register_sysctl_paths()
During this merge window we should be able to deprecate and unexport
register_sysctl_paths(), we can probably do that towards the end of
this merge window.
Deprecating register_sysctl_table() will take a bit more time but this
pull request goes with a few example of how to do this.
As it turns out each of the conversions to move away from either of
these two API calls *also* saves memory. And so long term, all these
changes *will* prove to have saved a bit of memory on boot.
The way I see it then is if remove a user of one deprecated call, it
gives us enough savings to move one kernel/sysctl.c out from the
generic arrays as we end up with about the same amount of bytes.
Since deprecating register_sysctl_table() and register_sysctl_paths()
does not require maintainer coordination except the final unexport
you'll see quite a bit of these changes from other pull requests, I've
just kept the stragglers after rc3"

Pull module updates from Luis Chamberlain:
"The summary of the changes for this pull requests is:
- Song Liu's new struct module_memory replacement
- Nick Alcock's MODULE_LICENSE() removal for non-modules
- My cleanups and enhancements to reduce the areas where we vmalloc
module memory for duplicates, and the respective debug code which
proves the remaining vmalloc pressure comes from userspace.
Most of the changes have been in linux-next for quite some time except
the minor fixes I made to check if a module was already loaded prior
to allocating the final module memory with vmalloc and the respective
debug code it introduces to help clarify the issue. Although the
functional change is small it is rather safe as it can only *help*
reduce vmalloc space for duplicates and is confirmed to fix a bootup
issue with over 400 CPUs with KASAN enabled. I don't expect stable
kernels to pick up that fix as the cleanups would have also had to
have been picked up. Folks on larger CPU systems with modules will
want to just upgrade if vmalloc space has been an issue on bootup.
Given the size of this request, here's some more elaborate details:
The functional change change in this pull request is the very first
patch from Song Liu which replaces the 'struct module_layout' with a
new 'struct module_memory'. The old data structure tried to put
together all types of supported module memory types in one data
structure, the new one abstracts the differences in memory types in a
module to allow each one to provide their own set of details. This
paves the way in the future so we can deal with them in a cleaner way.
If you look at changes they also provide a nice cleanup of how we
handle these different memory areas in a module. This change has been
in linux-next since before the merge window opened for v6.3 so to
provide more than a full kernel cycle of testing. It's a good thing as
quite a bit of fixes have been found for it.
Jason Baron then made dynamic debug a first class citizen module user
by using module notifier callbacks to allocate / remove module
specific dynamic debug information.
Nick Alcock has done quite a bit of work cross-tree to remove module
license tags from things which cannot possibly be module at my request
so to:
a) help him with his longer term tooling goals which require a
deterministic evaluation if a piece a symbol code could ever be
part of a module or not. But quite recently it is has been made
clear that tooling is not the only one that would benefit.
Disambiguating symbols also helps efforts such as live patching,
kprobes and BPF, but for other reasons and R&D on this area is
active with no clear solution in sight.
b) help us inch closer to the now generally accepted long term goal
of automating all the MODULE_LICENSE() tags from SPDX license tags
In so far as a) is concerned, although module license tags are a no-op
for non-modules, tools which would want create a mapping of possible
modules can only rely on the module license tag after the commit
8b41fc4454e ("kbuild: create modules.builtin without
Makefile.modbuiltin or tristate.conf").
Nick has been working on this *for years* and AFAICT I was the only
one to suggest two alternatives to this approach for tooling. The
complexity in one of my suggested approaches lies in that we'd need a
possible-obj-m and a could-be-module which would check if the object
being built is part of any kconfig build which could ever lead to it
being part of a module, and if so define a new define
-DPOSSIBLE_MODULE [0].
A more obvious yet theoretical approach I've suggested would be to
have a tristate in kconfig imply the same new -DPOSSIBLE_MODULE as
well but that means getting kconfig symbol names mapping to modules
always, and I don't think that's the case today. I am not aware of
Nick or anyone exploring either of these options. Quite recently Josh
Poimboeuf has pointed out that live patching, kprobes and BPF would
benefit from resolving some part of the disambiguation as well but for
other reasons. The function granularity KASLR (fgkaslr) patches were
mentioned but Joe Lawrence has clarified this effort has been dropped
with no clear solution in sight [1].
In the meantime removing module license tags from code which could
never be modules is welcomed for both objectives mentioned above. Some
developers have also welcomed these changes as it has helped clarify
when a module was never possible and they forgot to clean this up, and
so you'll see quite a bit of Nick's patches in other pull requests for
this merge window. I just picked up the stragglers after rc3. LWN has
good coverage on the motivation behind this work [2] and the typical
cross-tree issues he ran into along the way. The only concrete blocker
issue he ran into was that we should not remove the MODULE_LICENSE()
tags from files which have no SPDX tags yet, even if they can never be
modules. Nick ended up giving up on his efforts due to having to do
this vetting and backlash he ran into from folks who really did *not
understand* the core of the issue nor were providing any alternative /
guidance. I've gone through his changes and dropped the patches which
dropped the module license tags where an SPDX license tag was missing,
it only consisted of 11 drivers. To see if a pull request deals with a
file which lacks SPDX tags you can just use:
./scripts/spdxcheck.py -f \
$(git diff --name-only commid-id | xargs echo)
You'll see a core module file in this pull request for the above, but
that's not related to his changes. WE just need to add the SPDX
license tag for the kernel/module/kmod.c file in the future but it
demonstrates the effectiveness of the script.
Most of Nick's changes were spread out through different trees, and I
just picked up the slack after rc3 for the last kernel was out. Those
changes have been in linux-next for over two weeks.
The cleanups, debug code I added and final fix I added for modules
were motivated by David Hildenbrand's report of boot failing on a
systems with over 400 CPUs when KASAN was enabled due to running out
of virtual memory space. Although the functional change only consists
of 3 lines in the patch "module: avoid allocation if module is already
present and ready", proving that this was the best we can do on the
modules side took quite a bit of effort and new debug code.
The initial cleanups I did on the modules side of things has been in
linux-next since around rc3 of the last kernel, the actual final fix
for and debug code however have only been in linux-next for about a
week or so but I think it is worth getting that code in for this merge
window as it does help fix / prove / evaluate the issues reported with
larger number of CPUs. Userspace is not yet fixed as it is taking a
bit of time for folks to understand the crux of the issue and find a
proper resolution. Worst come to worst, I have a kludge-of-concept [3]
of how to make kernel_read*() calls for modules unique / converge
them, but I'm currently inclined to just see if userspace can fix this
instead"

We introduce a new HAS_IOPORT Kconfig option to indicate support for I/O
Port access. In a future patch HAS_IOPORT=n will disable compilation of
the I/O accessor functions inb()/outb() and friends on architectures
which can not meaningfully support legacy I/O spaces such as s390.
The following architectures do not select HAS_IOPORT:
* ARC
* C-SKY
* Hexagon
* Nios II
* OpenRISC
* s390
* User-Mode Linux
* Xtensa
All other architectures select HAS_IOPORT at least conditionally.
The "depends on" relations on HAS_IOPORT in drivers as well as ifdefs
for HAS_IOPORT specific sections will be added in subsequent patches on
a per subsystem basis.

module_layout manages different types of memory (text, data, rodata, etc.)
in one allocation, which is problematic for some reasons:
1. It is hard to enable CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX.
2. It is hard to use huge pages in modules (and not break strict rwx).
3. Many archs uses module_layout for arch-specific data, but it is not
obvious how these data are used (are they RO, RX, or RW?)
Improve the scenario by replacing 2 (or 3) module_layout per module with
up to 7 module_memory per module:
MOD_TEXT,
MOD_DATA,
MOD_RODATA,
MOD_RO_AFTER_INIT,
MOD_INIT_TEXT,
MOD_INIT_DATA,
MOD_INIT_RODATA,
and allocating them separately. This adds slightly more entries to
mod_tree (from up to 3 entries per module, to up to 7 entries per
module). However, this at most adds a small constant overhead to
__module_address(), which is expected to be fast.
Various archs use module_layout for different data. These data are put
into different module_memory based on their location in module_layout.
IOW, data that used to go with text is allocated with MOD_MEM_TYPE_TEXT;
data that used to go with data is allocated with MOD_MEM_TYPE_DATA, etc.
module_memory simplifies quite some of the module code. For example,
ARCH_WANTS_MODULES_DATA_IN_VMALLOC is a lot cleaner, as it just uses a
different allocator for the data. kernel/module/strict_rwx.c is also
much cleaner with module_memory.

Before commit 076cbf5d2163 ("x86/xen: don't let xen_pv_play_dead()
return"), in Xen, when a previously offlined CPU was brought back
online, it unexpectedly resumed execution where it left off in the
middle of the idle loop.
There were some hacks to make that work, but the behavior was surprising
as do_idle() doesn't expect an offlined CPU to return from the dead (in
arch_cpu_idle_dead()).
Now that Xen has been fixed, and the arch-specific implementations of
arch_cpu_idle_dead() also don't return, give it a __noreturn attribute.
This will cause the compiler to complain if an arch-specific
implementation might return. It also improves code generation for both
caller and callee.
Also fixes the following warning:

Commit aa47a7c215e7 ("lib/cpumask: deprecate nr_cpumask_bits") resulted
in the cpumask operations potentially becoming hugely less efficient,
because suddenly the cpumask was always considered to be variable-sized.
The optimization was then later added back in a limited form by commit
6f9c07be9d02 ("lib/cpumask: add FORCE_NR_CPUS config option"), but that
FORCE_NR_CPUS option is not useful in a generic kernel and more of a
special case for embedded situations with fixed hardware.
Instead, just re-introduce the optimization, with some changes.
Instead of depending on CPUMASK_OFFSTACK being false, and then always
using the full constant cpumask width, this introduces three different
cpumask "sizes":
- the exact size (nr_cpumask_bits) remains identical to nr_cpu_ids.
This is used for situations where we should use the exact size.
- the "small" size (small_cpumask_bits) is the NR_CPUS constant if it
fits in a single word and the bitmap operations thus end up able
to trigger the "small_const_nbits()" optimizations.
This is used for the operations that have optimized single-word
cases that get inlined, notably the bit find and scanning functions.
- the "large" size (large_cpumask_bits) is the NR_CPUS constant if it
is an sufficiently small constant that makes simple "copy" and
"clear" operations more efficient.
This is arbitrarily set at four words or less.
As a an example of this situation, without this fixed size optimization,
cpumask_clear() will generate code like
movl nr_cpu_ids(%rip), %edx
addq $63, %rdx
shrq $3, %rdx
andl $-8, %edx
callq memset@PLT
on x86-64, because it would calculate the "exact" number of longwords
that need to be cleared.
In contrast, with this patch, using a MAX_CPU of 64 (which is quite a
reasonable value to use), the above becomes a single
movq $0,cpumask
instruction instead, because instead of caring to figure out exactly how
many CPU's the system has, it just knows that the cpumask will be a
single word and can just clear it all.
Note that this does end up tightening the rules a bit from the original
version in another way: operations that set bits in the cpumask are now
limited to the actual nr_cpu_ids limit, whereas we used to do the
nr_cpumask_bits thing almost everywhere in the cpumask code.
But if you just clear bits, or scan for bits, we can use the simpler
compile-time constants.
In the process, remove 'cpumask_complement()' and 'for_each_cpu_not()'
which were not useful, and which fundamentally have to be limited to
'nr_cpu_ids'. Better remove them now than have somebody introduce use
of them later.
Of course, on x86-64 with MAXSMP there is no sane small compile-time
constant for the cpumask sizes, and we end up using the actual CPU bits,
and will generate the above kind of horrors regardless. Please don't
use MAXSMP unless you really expect to have machines with thousands of
cores.

Pull VM_FAULT_RETRY fixes from Al Viro:
"Some of the page fault handlers do not deal with the following case
correctly:
- handle_mm_fault() has returned VM_FAULT_RETRY
- there is a pending fatal signal
- fault had happened in kernel mode
Correct action in such case is not "return unconditionally" - fatal
signals are handled only upon return to userland and something like
copy_to_user() would end up retrying the faulting instruction and
triggering the same fault again and again.
What we need to do in such case is to make the caller to treat that as
failed uaccess attempt - handle exception if there is an exception
handler for faulting instruction or oops if there isn't one.
Over the years some architectures had been fixed and now are handling
that case properly; some still do not. This series should fix the
remaining ones.

We often forget about the third C compiler to build the kernel.

ia64 equivalent of 26178ec11ef3 "x86: mm: consolidate VM_FAULT_RETRY handling"
If e.g. get_user() triggers a page fault and a fatal signal is caught, we might
end up with handle_mm_fault() returning VM_FAULT_RETRY and not doing anything
to page tables. In such case we must *not* return to the faulting insn -
that would repeat the entire thing without making any progress; what we need
instead is to treat that as failed (user) memory access.

Pull driver core updates from Greg KH:
"Here is the large set of driver core changes for 6.3-rc1.
There's a lot of changes this development cycle, most of the work
falls into two different categories:
- fw_devlink fixes and updates. This has gone through numerous review
cycles and lots of review and testing by lots of different devices.
Hopefully all should be good now, and Saravana will be keeping a
watch for any potential regression on odd embedded systems.
- driver core changes to work to make struct bus_type able to be
moved into read-only memory (i.e. const) The recent work with Rust
has pointed out a number of areas in the driver core where we are
passing around and working with structures that really do not have
to be dynamic at all, and they should be able to be read-only
making things safer overall. This is the contuation of that work
(started last release with kobject changes) in moving struct
bus_type to be constant. We didn't quite make it for this release,
but the remaining patches will be finished up for the release after
this one, but the groundwork has been laid for this effort.
Other than that we have in here:
- debugfs memory leak fixes in some subsystems
- error path cleanups and fixes for some never-able-to-be-hit
codepaths.
- cacheinfo rework and fixes
- Other tiny fixes, full details are in the shortlog
All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
problems"
[ Geert Uytterhoeven points out that that last sentence isn't true, and
that there's a pending report that has a fix that is queued up - Linus ]

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- Daniel Verkamp has contributed a memfd series ("mm/memfd: add
F_SEAL_EXEC") which permits the setting of the memfd execute bit at
memfd creation time, with the option of sealing the state of the X
bit.
- Peter Xu adds a patch series ("mm/hugetlb: Make huge_pte_offset()
thread-safe for pmd unshare") which addresses a rare race condition
related to PMD unsharing.
- Several folioification patch serieses from Matthew Wilcox, Vishal
Moola, Sidhartha Kumar and Lorenzo Stoakes
- Johannes Weiner has a series ("mm: push down lock_page_memcg()")
which does perform some memcg maintenance and cleanup work.
- SeongJae Park has added DAMOS filtering to DAMON, with the series
"mm/damon/core: implement damos filter".
These filters provide users with finer-grained control over DAMOS's
actions. SeongJae has also done some DAMON cleanup work.
- Kairui Song adds a series ("Clean up and fixes for swap").
- Vernon Yang contributed the series "Clean up and refinement for maple
tree".
- Yu Zhao has contributed the "mm: multi-gen LRU: memcg LRU" series. It
adds to MGLRU an LRU of memcgs, to improve the scalability of global
reclaim.
- David Hildenbrand has added some userfaultfd cleanup work in the
series "mm: uffd-wp + change_protection() cleanups".
- Christoph Hellwig has removed the generic_writepages() library
function in the series "remove generic_writepages".
- Baolin Wang has performed some maintenance on the compaction code in
his series "Some small improvements for compaction".
- Sidhartha Kumar is doing some maintenance work on struct page in his
series "Get rid of tail page fields".
- David Hildenbrand contributed some cleanup, bugfixing and
generalization of pte management and of pte debugging in his series
"mm: support __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SWP_EXCLUSIVE on all architectures with
swap PTEs".
- Mel Gorman and Neil Brown have removed the __GFP_ATOMIC allocation
flag in the series "Discard __GFP_ATOMIC".
- Sergey Senozhatsky has improved zsmalloc's memory utilization with
his series "zsmalloc: make zspage chain size configurable".
- Joey Gouly has added prctl() support for prohibiting the creation of
writeable+executable mappings.
The previous BPF-based approach had shortcomings. See "mm: In-kernel
support for memory-deny-write-execute (MDWE)".
- Waiman Long did some kmemleak cleanup and bugfixing in the series
"mm/kmemleak: Simplify kmemleak_cond_resched() & fix UAF".
- T.J. Alumbaugh has contributed some MGLRU cleanup work in his series
"mm: multi-gen LRU: improve".
- Jiaqi Yan has provided some enhancements to our memory error
statistics reporting, mainly by presenting the statistics on a
per-node basis. See the series "Introduce per NUMA node memory error
statistics".
- Mel Gorman has a second and hopefully final shot at fixing a CPU-hog
regression in compaction via his series "Fix excessive CPU usage
during compaction".
- Christoph Hellwig does some vmalloc maintenance work in the series
"cleanup vfree and vunmap".
- Christoph Hellwig has removed block_device_operations.rw_page() in
ths series "remove ->rw_page".
- We get some maple_tree improvements and cleanups in Liam Howlett's
series "VMA tree type safety and remove __vma_adjust()".
- Suren Baghdasaryan has done some work on the maintainability of our
vm_flags handling in the series "introduce vm_flags modifier
functions".
- Some pagemap cleanup and generalization work in Mike Rapoport's
series "mm, arch: add generic implementation of pfn_valid() for
FLATMEM" and "fixups for generic implementation of pfn_valid()"
- Baoquan He has done some work to make /proc/vmallocinfo and
/proc/kcore better represent the real state of things in his series
"mm/vmalloc.c: allow vread() to read out vm_map_ram areas".
- Jason Gunthorpe rationalized the GUP system's interface to the rest
of the kernel in the series "Simplify the external interface for
GUP".
- SeongJae Park wishes to migrate people from DAMON's debugfs interface
over to its sysfs interface. To support this, we'll temporarily be
printing warnings when people use the debugfs interface. See the
series "mm/damon: deprecate DAMON debugfs interface".
- Andrey Konovalov provided the accurately named "lib/stackdepot: fixes
and clean-ups" series.
- Huang Ying has provided a dramatic reduction in migration's TLB flush
IPI rates with the series "migrate_pages(): batch TLB flushing".
- Arnd Bergmann has some objtool fixups in "objtool warning fixes".
