Following commit dccf78d39f10 ("kernel/Kconfig.kexec: drop
select of KEXEC for CRASH_DUMP") also drop automatic KEXEC
selection for s390 while set CONFIG_KEXEC=y explicitly for
defconfig and debug_defconfig targets. zfcpdump_defconfig
target gets CONFIG_KEXEC unset as result, which is right
and consistent with CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE besides.

31 bit support has been removed from the kernel more than eight years
ago. The last 31 bit distribution is many years older. There shouldn't be
any 31 bit code around anymore.
Therefore avoid providing an unused and only partially tested user space
interface and change the default for CONFIG_COMPAT from "yes" to "no".

Pull s390 updates from Alexander Gordeev:
- Add machine variable capacity information to /proc/sysinfo.
- Limit the waste of page tables and always align vmalloc area size and
base address on segment boundary.
- Fix a memory leak when an attempt to register interruption sub class
(ISC) for the adjunct-processor (AP) guest failed.
- Reset response code AP_RESPONSE_INVALID_GISA to understandable by
guest AP_RESPONSE_INVALID_ADDRESS in response to a failed
interruption sub class (ISC) registration attempt.
- Improve reaction to adjunct-processor (AP)
AP_RESPONSE_OTHERWISE_CHANGED response code when enabling interrupts
on behalf of a guest.
- Fix incorrect sysfs 'status' attribute of adjunct-processor (AP)
queue device bound to the vfio_ap device driver when the mediated
device is attached to a guest, but the queue device is not passed
through.
- Rework struct ap_card to hold the whole adjunct-processor (AP) card
hardware information. As result, all the ugly bit checks are replaced
by simple evaluations of the required bit fields.
- Improve handling of some weird scenarios between service element (SE)
host and SE guest with adjunct-processor (AP) pass-through support.
- Change local_ctl_set_bit() and local_ctl_clear_bit() so they return
the previous value of the to be changed control register. This is
useful if a bit is only changed temporarily and the previous content
needs to be restored.
- The kernel starts with machine checks disabled and is expected to
enable it once trap_init() is called. However the implementation
allows machine checks early. Consistently enable it in trap_init()
only.
- local_mcck_disable() and local_mcck_enable() assume that machine
checks are always enabled. Instead implement and use
local_mcck_save() and local_mcck_restore() to disable machine checks
and restore the previous state.
- Modification of floating point control (FPC) register of a traced
process using ptrace interface may lead to corruption of the FPC
register of the tracing process. Fix this.
- kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_set_fpu() allows to set the floating point
control (FPC) register in vCPU, but may lead to corruption of the FPC
register of the host process. Fix this.
- Use READ_ONCE() to read a vCPU floating point register value from the
memory mapped area. This avoids that, depending on code generation, a
different value is tested for validity than the one that is used.
- Get rid of test_fp_ctl(), since it is quite subtle to use it
correctly. Instead copy a new floating point control register value
into its save area and test the validity of the new value when
loading it.
- Remove superfluous save_fpu_regs() call.
- Remove s390 support for ARCH_WANTS_DYNAMIC_TASK_STRUCT. All machines
provide the vector facility since many years and the need to make the
task structure size dependent on the vector facility does not exist.
- Remove the "novx" kernel command line option, as the vector code runs
without any problems since many years.
- Add the vector facility to the z13 architecture level set (ALS). All
hypervisors support the vector facility since many years. This allows
compile time optimizations of the kernel.
- Get rid of MACHINE_HAS_VX and replace it with cpu_has_vx(). As
result, the compiled code will have less runtime checks and less
code.
- Convert pgste_get_lock() and pgste_set_unlock() ASM inlines to C.
- Convert the struct subchannel spinlock from pointer to member.

Pull slab updates from Vlastimil Babka:
- SLUB: delayed freezing of CPU partial slabs (Chengming Zhou)
Freezing is an operation involving double_cmpxchg() that makes a slab
exclusive for a particular CPU. Chengming noticed that we use it also
in situations where we are not yet installing the slab as the CPU
slab, because freezing also indicates that the slab is not on the
shared list. This results in redundant freeze/unfreeze operation and
can be avoided by marking separately the shared list presence by
reusing the PG_workingset flag.
This approach neatly avoids the issues described in 9b1ea29bc0d7
("Revert "mm, slub: consider rest of partial list if acquire_slab()
fails"") as we can now grab a slab from the shared list in a quick
and guaranteed way without the cmpxchg_double() operation that
amplifies the lock contention and can fail.
As a result, lkp has reported 34.2% improvement of
stress-ng.rawudp.ops_per_sec
- SLAB removal and SLUB cleanups (Vlastimil Babka)
The SLAB allocator has been deprecated since 6.5 and nobody has
objected so far. We agreed at LSF/MM to wait until the next LTS,
which is 6.6, so we should be good to go now.
This doesn't yet erase all traces of SLAB outside of mm/ so some dead
code, comments or documentation remain, and will be cleaned up
gradually (some series are already in the works).
Removing the choice of allocators has already allowed to simplify and
optimize the code wiring up the kmalloc APIs to the SLUB
implementation.

The cleanup for the CONFIG_KEXEC Kconfig logic accidentally changed the
'depends on CRYPTO=y' dependency to a plain 'depends on CRYPTO', which
causes a link failure when all the crypto support is in a loadable module
and kexec_file support is built-in:
x86_64-linux-ld: vmlinux.o: in function `__x64_sys_kexec_file_load':
(.text+0x32e30a): undefined reference to `crypto_alloc_shash'
x86_64-linux-ld: (.text+0x32e58e): undefined reference to `crypto_shash_update'
x86_64-linux-ld: (.text+0x32e6ee): undefined reference to `crypto_shash_final'
Both s390 and x86 have this problem, while ppc64 and riscv have the
correct dependency already. On riscv, the dependency is only used for the
purgatory, not for the kexec_file code itself, which may be a bit
surprising as it means that with CONFIG_CRYPTO=m, it is possible to enable
KEXEC_FILE but then the purgatory code is silently left out.
Move this into the common Kconfig.kexec file in a way that is correct
everywhere, using the dependency on CRYPTO_SHA256=y only when the
purgatory code is available. This requires reversing the dependency
between ARCH_SUPPORTS_KEXEC_PURGATORY and KEXEC_FILE, but the effect
remains the same, other than making riscv behave like the other ones.
On s390, there is an additional dependency on CRYPTO_SHA256_S390, which
should technically not be required but gives better performance. Remove
this dependency here, noting that it was not present in the initial
Kconfig code but was brought in without an explanation in commit
71406883fd357 ("s390/kexec_file: Add kexec_file_load system call").

s390 selects ARCH_WANTS_DYNAMIC_TASK_STRUCT in order to make the size of
the task structure dependent on the availability of the vector
facility. This doesn't make sense anymore because since many years all
machines provide the vector facility.
Therefore simplify the code a bit and remove s390 support for
ARCH_WANTS_DYNAMIC_TASK_STRUCT.

Remove CONFIG_SLAB, CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB, CONFIG_SLAB_DEPRECATED and
everything in Kconfig files and mm/Makefile that depends on those. Since
SLUB is the only remaining allocator, remove the allocator choice, make
CONFIG_SLUB a "def_bool y" for now and remove all explicit dependencies
on SLUB or SLAB as it's now always enabled. Make every option's verbose
name and description refer to "the slab allocator" without refering to
the specific implementation. Do not rename the CONFIG_ option names yet.
Everything under #ifdef CONFIG_SLAB, and mm/slab.c is now dead code, all
code under #ifdef CONFIG_SLUB is now always compiled.

Pull x86 shadow stack support from Dave Hansen:
"This is the long awaited x86 shadow stack support, part of Intel's
Control-flow Enforcement Technology (CET).
CET consists of two related security features: shadow stacks and
indirect branch tracking. This series implements just the shadow stack
part of this feature, and just for userspace.
The main use case for shadow stack is providing protection against
return oriented programming attacks. It works by maintaining a
secondary (shadow) stack using a special memory type that has
protections against modification. When executing a CALL instruction,
the processor pushes the return address to both the normal stack and
to the special permission shadow stack. Upon RET, the processor pops
the shadow stack copy and compares it to the normal stack copy.
For more information, refer to the links below for the earlier
versions of this patch set"

This patch is a minor cleanup to the series "refactor Kconfig to
consolidate KEXEC and CRASH options".
In that series, a new option ARCH_DEFAULT_KEXEC was introduced in order to
obtain the equivalent behavior of s390 original Kconfig settings for
KEXEC. As it turns out, this new option did not fully provide the
equivalent behavior, rather a "select KEXEC" did.
As such, the ARCH_DEFAULT_KEXEC is not needed anymore, so remove it.

Arm disabled hugetlb vmemmap optimization [1] because hugetlb vmemmap
optimization includes an update of both the permissions (writeable to
read-only) and the output address (pfn) of the vmemmap ptes. That is not
supported without unmapping of pte(marking it invalid) by some
architectures.
With DAX vmemmap optimization we don't require such pte updates and
architectures can enable DAX vmemmap optimization while having hugetlb
vmemmap optimization disabled. Hence split DAX optimization support into
a different config.
s390, loongarch and riscv don't have devdax support. So the DAX config is
not enabled for them. With this change, arm64 should be able to select
DAX optimization

By taking GENERIC_IOREMAP method, the generic generic_ioremap_prot(),
generic_iounmap(), and their generic wrapper ioremap_prot(), ioremap() and
iounmap() are all visible and available to arch. Arch needs to provide
wrapper functions to override the generic versions if there's arch
specific handling in its ioremap_prot(), ioremap() or iounmap(). This
change will simplify implementation by removing duplicated code with
generic_ioremap_prot() and generic_iounmap(), and has the equivalent
functioality as before.
Here, add wrapper functions ioremap_prot() and iounmap() for s390's
special operation when ioremap() and iounmap().
And also replace including <asm-generic/io.h> with <asm/io.h> in
arch/s390/kernel/perf_cpum_sf.c, otherwise building error will be seen
because macro defined in <asm/io.h> can't be seen in perf_cpum_sf.c.

The s390_hypfs filesystem is deprecated and shouldn't be used due to its
rather odd semantics. It creates a whole directory structure with static
file contents so a user can read a consistent state while within that
directory.
Writing to its update attribute will remove and rebuild nearly the whole
filesystem, so that again a user can read a consistent state, even if
multiple files need to be read.
Given that this wastes a lot of CPU cycles, and involves a lot of code,
binary interfaces have been added quite a couple of years ago, which simply
pass the binary data to user space, and let user space decode the data.
This is the preferred and only way how the data should be retrieved.
The assumption is that there are no users of the s390_hypfs filesystem.
However instead of just removing the code, and having to revert in case
there are actually users, factor the filesystem code out and make it only
available via a new config option.
This config option is supposed to be disabled. If it turns out there are no
complaints the filesystem code can be removed probably in a couple of
years.

Enable receiving the user-defined certificates from the s390x
hypervisor via new diagnose 0x320 calls, and make them available to the
Linux root user as 'cert_store_key' type keys in a so-called
'cert_store' keyring.
New user-space interfaces:
/sys/firmware/cert_store/refresh
Writing to this attribute re-fetches certificates via DIAG 0x320
/sys/firmware/cert_store/cs_status
Reading from this attribute returns either of:
"uninitialized"
If no certificate has been retrieved yet
"ok"
If certificates have been successfully retrieved
"failed (<number>)"
If certificate retrieval failed with reason code <number>
New debug trace areas:
/sys/kernel/debug/s390dbf/cert_store_msg
/sys/kernel/debug/s390dbf/cert_store_hexdump
Usage example:
To initiate request for certificates available to the system as root:
$ echo 1 > /sys/firmware/cert_store/refresh
Upon success the '/sys/firmware/cert_store/cs_status' contains
the value 'ok'.
$ cat /sys/firmware/cert_store/cs_status
ok
Get the ID of the keyring 'cert_store':
$ keyctl search @us keyring cert_store
OR
$ keyctl link @us @s; keyctl request keyring cert_store
Obtain list of IDs of certificates:
$ keyctl rlist <cert_store keyring ID>
Display certificate content as hex-dump:
$ keyctl read <certificate ID>
Read certificate contents as binary data:
$ keyctl pipe <certificate ID> >cert_data
Display certificate description:
$ keyctl describe <certificate ID>
The certificate description has the following format:
<64 bytes certificate name in EBCDIC> ':'
<certificate index as obtained from hypervisor> ':'
<certificate store token obtained from hypervisor>
The certificate description in /proc/keys has certificate name
represented in ASCII.
Users can read but cannot update the content of the certificate.

The x86 Shadow stack feature includes a new type of memory called shadow
stack. This shadow stack memory has some unusual properties, which requires
some core mm changes to function properly.
One of these unusual properties is that shadow stack memory is writable,
but only in limited ways. These limits are applied via a specific PTE
bit combination. Nevertheless, the memory is writable, and core mm code
will need to apply the writable permissions in the typical paths that
call pte_mkwrite(). The goal is to make pte_mkwrite() take a VMA, so
that the x86 implementation of it can know whether to create regular
writable or shadow stack mappings.
But there are a couple of challenges to this. Modifying the signatures of
each arch pte_mkwrite() implementation would be error prone because some
are generated with macros and would need to be re-implemented. Also, some
pte_mkwrite() callers operate on kernel memory without a VMA.
So this can be done in a three step process. First pte_mkwrite() can be
renamed to pte_mkwrite_novma() in each arch, with a generic pte_mkwrite()
added that just calls pte_mkwrite_novma(). Next callers without a VMA can
be moved to pte_mkwrite_novma(). And lastly, pte_mkwrite() and all callers
can be changed to take/pass a VMA.
Start the process by renaming pte_mkwrite() to pte_mkwrite_novma() and
adding the pte_mkwrite() wrapper in linux/pgtable.h. Apply the same
pattern for pmd_mkwrite(). Since not all archs have a pmd_mkwrite_novma(),
create a new arch config HAS_HUGE_PAGE that can be used to tell if
pmd_mkwrite() should be defined. Otherwise in the !HAS_HUGE_PAGE cases the
compiler would not be able to find pmd_mkwrite_novma().
No functional change.

Pull s390 updates from Alexander Gordeev:
- Fix the style of protected key API driver source: use x-mas tree for
all local variable declarations
- Rework protected key API driver to not use the struct pkey_protkey
and pkey_clrkey anymore. Both structures have a fixed size buffer,
but with the support of ECC protected key these buffers are not big
enough. Use dynamic buffers internally and transparently for
userspace
- Add support for a new 'non CCA clear key token' with ECC clear keys
supported: ECC P256, ECC P384, ECC P521, ECC ED25519 and ECC ED448.
This makes it possible to derive a protected key from the ECC clear
key input via PKEY_KBLOB2PROTK3 ioctl, while currently the only way
to derive is via PCKMO instruction
- The s390 PMU of PAI crypto and extension 1 NNPA counters use atomic_t
for reference counting. Replace this with the proper data type
refcount_t
- Select ARCH_SUPPORTS_INT128, but limit this to clang for now, since
gcc generates inefficient code, which may lead to stack overflows
- Replace one-element array with flexible-array member in struct
vfio_ccw_parent and refactor the rest of the code accordingly. Also,
prefer struct_size() over sizeof() open- coded versions
- Introduce OS_INFO_FLAGS_ENTRY pointing to a flags field and
OS_INFO_FLAG_REIPL_CLEAR flag that informs a dumper whether the
system memory should be cleared or not once dumped
- Fix a hang when a user attempts to remove a VFIO-AP mediated device
attached to a guest: add VFIO_DEVICE_GET_IRQ_INFO and
VFIO_DEVICE_SET_IRQS IOCTLs and wire up the VFIO bus driver callback
to request a release of the device
- Fix calculation for R_390_GOTENT relocations for modules
- Allow any user space process with CAP_PERFMON capability read and
display the CPU Measurement facility counter sets
- Rework large statically-defined per-CPU cpu_cf_events data structure
and replace it with dynamically allocated structures created when a
perf_event_open() system call is invoked or /dev/hwctr device is
accessed

s390 has instructions to support 128 bit arithmetics, e.g. a 64 bit
multiply instruction with a 128 bit result. Also 128 bit integer
artithmetics are already used in s390 specific architecture code (see
e.g. read_persistent_clock64()).
Therefore select ARCH_SUPPORTS_INT128.
However limit this to clang for now, since gcc generates inefficient code,
which may lead to stack overflows, when compiling
lib/crypto/curve25519-hacl64.c which depends on ARCH_SUPPORTS_INT128. The
gcc generated functions have 6kb stack frames, compared to only 1kb of the
code generated with clang.
If the kernel is compiled with -Os library calls for __ashlti3(),
__ashrti3(), and __lshrti3() may be generated. Similar to arm64

Commit 0da6e5fd6c37 ("gcc: disable '-Warray-bounds' for gcc-13 too") makes
config GCC11_NO_ARRAY_BOUNDS to be for disabling -Warray-bounds in any gcc
version 11 and upwards, and with that, removes the GCC12_NO_ARRAY_BOUNDS
config as it is now covered by the semantics of GCC11_NO_ARRAY_BOUNDS.
As GCC11_NO_ARRAY_BOUNDS is yes by default, there is no need for the s390
architecture to explicitly select GCC11_NO_ARRAY_BOUNDS. Hence, the select
GCC12_NO_ARRAY_BOUNDS in arch/s390/Kconfig can simply be dropped.

Commit dfe843dce775 ("s390/checksum: support GENERIC_CSUM, enable it for
KASAN") switched s390 to use the generic checksum functions, so that KASAN
instrumentation also works checksum functions by avoiding architecture
specific inline assemblies.
There is however the problem that the generic csum_partial() function
returns a 32 bit value with a 16 bit folded checksum, while the original
s390 variant does not fold to 16 bit. This in turn causes that the
ipib_checksum in lowcore contains different values depending on kernel
config options.
The ipib_checksum is used by system dumpers to verify if pointers in
lowcore point to valid data. Verification is done by comparing checksum
values. The system dumpers still use 32 bit checksum values which are not
folded, and therefore the checksum verification fails (incorrectly).
Symptom is that reboot after dump does not work anymore when a KASAN
instrumented kernel is dumped.
Fix this by not using the generic checksum implementation. Instead add an
explicit kasan_check_read() so that KASAN knows about the read access from
within the inline assembly.

and powerpc.

Make use of CONFIG_FUNCTION_ALIGNMENT which was introduced with commit
d49a0626216b ("arch: Introduce CONFIG_FUNCTION_ALIGNMENT").
Select FUNCTION_ALIGNMENT_8B for gcc in order to reflect gcc's default
function alignment. For all other compilers, which is only clang, select
a function alignment of 16 bytes which reflects the default function
alignment for clang.
Also change the __ALIGN define to follow whatever the value of
CONFIG_FUNCTION_ALIGNMENT is. This makes sure that the alignment of C and
assembler functions is the same.
In result everything still uses the default function alignment for both
compilers. However in addition this is now also true for all assembly
functions, so that all functions have a consistent alignment.

Pull more s390 updates from Heiko Carstens:
- Add empty command line parameter handling stubs to kernel for all
command line parameters which are handled in the decompressor. This
avoids invalid "Unknown kernel command line parameters" messages from
the kernel, and also avoids that these will be incorrectly passed to
user space. This caused already confusion, therefore add the empty
stubs
- Add missing phys_to_virt() handling to machine check handler
- Introduce and use a union to be used for zcrypt inline assemblies.
This makes sure that only a register wide member of the union is
passed as input and output parameter to inline assemblies, while
usual C code uses other members of the union to access bit fields of
it
- Add and use a READ_ONCE_ALIGNED_128() macro, which can be used to
atomically read a 128-bit value from memory. This replaces the
(mis-)use of the 128-bit cmpxchg operation to do the same in cpum_sf
code. Currently gcc does not generate the used lpq instruction if
__READ_ONCE() is used for aligned 128-bit accesses, therefore use
this s390 specific helper
- Simplify machine check handler code if a task needs to be killed
because of e.g. register corruption due to a machine malfunction
- Perform CPU reset to clear pending interrupts and TLB entries on an
already stopped target CPU before delegating work to it
- Generate arch/s390/boot/vmlinux.map link map for the decompressor,
when CONFIG_VMLINUX_MAP is enabled for debugging purposes
- Fix segment type handling for dcssblk devices. It incorrectly always
returned type "READ/WRITE" even for read-only segements, which can
result in a kernel panic if somebody tries to write to a read-only
device
- Sort config S390 select list again

test

Pull s390 updates from Alexander Gordeev:
- Factor out handle_write() function and simplify 3215 console write
operation
- When 3170 terminal emulator is connected to the 3215 console driver
the boot time could be very long due to limited buffer space or
missing operator input. Add con3215_drop command line parameter and
con3215_drop sysfs attribute file to instruct the kernel drop console
data when such conditions are met
- Fix white space errors in 3215 console driver
- Move enum paiext_mode definition to a header file and rename it to
paievt_mode to indicate this is now used for several events. Rename
PAI_MODE_COUNTER to PAI_MODE_COUNTING to make consistent with
PAI_MODE_SAMPLING
- Simplify the logic of PMU pai_crypto mapped buffer reference counter
and make it consistent with PMU pai_ext
- Rename PMU pai_crypto mapped buffer structure member users to
active_events to make it consistent with PMU pai_ext
- Enable HUGETLB_PAGE_OPTIMIZE_VMEMMAP configuration option. This
results in saving of 12K per 1M hugetlb page (~1.2%) and 32764K per
2G hugetlb page (~1.6%)
- Use generic serial.h, bugs.h, shmparam.h and vga.h header files and
scrap s390-specific versions
- The generic percpu setup code does not expect the s390-like
implementation and emits a warning. To get rid of that warning and
provide sane CPU-to-node and CPU-to-CPU distance mappings implementat
a minimal version of setup_per_cpu_areas()
- Use kstrtobool() instead of strtobool() for re-IPL sysfs device
attributes
- Avoid unnecessary lookup of a pointer to MSI descriptor when setting
IRQ affinity for a PCI device
- Get rid of "an incompatible function type cast" warning by changing
debug_sprintf_format_fn() function prototype so it matches the
debug_format_proc_t function type
- Remove unused info_blk_hdr__pcpus() and get_page_state() functions
- Get rid of clang "unused unused insn cache ops function" warning by
moving s390_insn definition to a private header
- Get rid of clang "unused function" warning by making function
raw3270_state_final() only available if CONFIG_TN3270_CONSOLE is
enabled
- Use kstrobool() to parse sclp_con_drop parameter to make it identical
to the con3215_drop parameter and allow passing values like "yes" and
"true"
- Use sysfs_emit() for all SCLP sysfs show functions, which is the
current standard way to generate output strings
- Make SCLP con_drop sysfs attribute also writable and allow to change
its value during runtime. This makes SCLP console drop handling
consistent with the 3215 device driver
- Virtual and physical addresses are indentical on s390. However, there
is still a confusion when pointers are directly casted to physical
addresses or vice versa. Use correct address converters
virt_to_phys() and phys_to_virt() for s390 channel IO drivers
- Support for power managemant has been removed from s390 since quite
some time. Remove unused power managemant code from the appldata
device driver
- Allow memory tools like KASAN see memory accesses from the checksum
code. Switch to GENERIC_CSUM if KASAN is enabled, just like x86 does
- Add support of ECKD DASDs disks so it could be used as boot and dump
devices
- Follow checkpatch recommendations and use octal values instead of
S_IRUGO and S_IWUSR for dump device attributes in sysfs
- Changes to vx-insn.h do not cause a recompile of C files that use
asm(".include \"asm/vx-insn.h\"\n") magic to access vector
instruction macros from inline assemblies. Add wrapper include header
file to avoid this problem
- Use vector instruction macros instead of byte patterns to increase
register validation routine readability
- The current machine check register validation handling does not take
into account various scenarios and might lead to killing a wrong user
process or potentially ignore corrupted FPU registers. Simplify logic
of the machine check handler and stop the whole machine if the
previous context was kerenel mode. If the previous context was user
mode, kill the current task
- Introduce sclp_emergency_printk() function which can be used to emit
a message in emergency cases. It is supposed to be used in cases
where regular console device drivers may not work anymore, e.g.
unrecoverable machine checks
Keep the early Service-Call Control Block so it can also be used
after initdata has been freed to allow sclp_emergency_printk()
implementation
- In case a system will be stopped because of an unrecoverable machine
check error print the machine check interruption code to give a hint
of what went wrong
- Move storage error checking from the assembly entry code to C in
order to simplify machine check handling. Enter the handler with DAT
turned on, which simplifies the entry code even more
- The machine check extended save areas are allocated using a private
"nmi_save_areas" slab cache which guarantees a required power-of-two
alignment. Get rid of that cache in favour of kmalloc()

Pull RCU updates from Paul McKenney:
- Documentation updates. This is the second in a series from an ongoing
review of the RCU documentation.
- Miscellaneous fixes.
- Introduce a default-off Kconfig option that depends on RCU_NOCB_CPU
that, on CPUs mentioned in the nohz_full or rcu_nocbs boot-argument
CPU lists, causes call_rcu() to introduce delays.
These delays result in significant power savings on nearly idle
Android and ChromeOS systems. These savings range from a few percent
to more than ten percent.
This series also includes several commits that change call_rcu() to a
new call_rcu_hurry() function that avoids these delays in a few
cases, for example, where timely wakeups are required. Several of
these are outside of RCU and thus have acks and reviews from the
relevant maintainers.
- Create an srcu_read_lock_nmisafe() and an srcu_read_unlock_nmisafe()
for architectures that support NMIs, but which do not provide
NMI-safe this_cpu_inc(). These NMI-safe SRCU functions are required
by the upcoming lockless printk() work by John Ogness et al.

coverage for the new RCU polled-grace-period APIs.
- Changes to torturescript that avoid redundant kernel builds, thus
providing about a 30% speedup for the torture.sh acceptance test.

support CONFIG_GENERIC_CSUM on x86, enable it for KASAN/KMSAN"). Even
though most of the s390 specific checksum code is written in C there is
still the csum_partial() inline assembly which could prevent KASAN and
KMSAN from seeing all memory accesses.

s390 allows to enable CONFIG_NUMA, mainly to enable a couple of system
calls which are only present if NUMA is enabled. The NUMA specific system
calls are required by a couple of applications, which wouldn't work if the
system calls wouldn't be present.
The NUMA implementation itself maps all CPUs and memory to node 0. A
special case is the generic percpu setup code, which doesn't expect an s390
like implementation and therefore emits a message/warning:
"percpu: cpu 0 has no node -1 or node-local memory".
In order to get rid of this message, and also to provide sane CPU to node
and CPU distance mappings implement a minimal setup_per_cpu_areas()
function, which is very close to the generic variant.

Enable HUGETLB_PAGE_OPTIMIZE_VMEMMAP for s390.
With this, vmemmap pages used to back struct pages for compound tail
pages of hugetlb pages are freed and remapped to compound head page
frame as RO, see also Documentation/vm/vmemmap_dedup.rst.
For 1M hugetlb pages, this results in freeing 3 of 4 vmemmap pages,
saving 12K of memory for each 1M hugetlb page (~1.2%).
/sys/kernel/debug/kernel_page_tables will show the impact:
---[ vmemmap Area Start ]---
[...]
0x0000037202d84000-0x0000037202d85000 4K PTE RW NX
0x0000037202d85000-0x0000037202d88000 12K PTE RO NX
For 2G hugetlb pages, this results in freeing 8191 of 8192 vmemmap
pages, saving 32764K of memory for each 2G hugetlb page (~1.6%)
/sys/kernel/debug/kernel_page_tables will show the impact:
---[ vmemmap Area Start ]---
[...]
0x000003720a000000-0x000003720a001000 4K PTE RW NX
0x000003720a001000-0x000003720c000000 32764K PTE RO NX
The memory savings come with some costs:
- vmemmap mapping for compound hugetlb pages is not a PMD mapping any
more, but split to 4K PTE mappings, and it will not be coalesced back
to PMD mapping after freeing hugetlb pages from the pool.
Apart from theoretical performance impact, this will also (slightly)
relativize the memory savings because of additional 2K PTE pagetable
allocations.
- Workload using "on the fly" hugetlb allocations via
"nr_overcommit_hugepages" instead of using the hugetlb pool via
"nr_hugepages" will suffer from considerably increased fault handling
time, see also description from commit 78f39084b41d
("mm: hugetlb_vmemmap: add hugetlb_optimize_vmemmap sysctl").
- Freeing hugetlb pages from the pool will require re-allocation of the
freed struct pages, and therefore needs some memory available to the
kernel. This might fail in memory constrained scenarios.
- For the same reason, memory offline might fail even for ZONE_MOVABLE
when hugetlb pages are present (but not for s390, since we do not
support ARCH_ENABLE_HUGEPAGE_MIGRATION, and therefore cannot have
hugetlb pages in ZONE_MOVABLE).
- General increased complexity and overhead in kernel handling of
compound (head) pages.
Therefore, this feature is disabled by default, and has to be enabled
explicitly either by adding "hugetlb_free_vmemmap=on" kernel parameter,
or during run-time via "/proc/sys/vm/hugetlb_optimize_vmemmap" sysctl.

Nathan Chancellor reported several link errors on s390 with
CONFIG_RELOCATABLE disabled, after binutils commit 906f69cf65da ("IBM
zSystems: Issue error for *DBL relocs on misaligned symbols"). The binutils
commit reveals potential miscompiles that might have happened already
before with linker script defined symbols at odd addresses.
A similar bug was recently fixed in the kernel with commit c9305b6c1f52
("s390: fix nospec table alignments").
See https://github.com/ClangBuiltLinux/linux/issues/1747 for an analysis
from Ulich Weigand.
Therefore always build a relocatable kernel to avoid this problem. There is
hardly any use-case for non-relocatable kernels, so this shouldn't be
controversial.

The s390 architecture uses either a cmpxchg loop (old systems)
or the laa add-to-memory instruction (new systems) to implement
this_cpu_add(), both of which are NMI safe. This means that the old
and more-efficient srcu_read_lock() may be used in NMI context, without
the need for srcu_read_lock_nmisafe(). Therefore, add the new Kconfig
option ARCH_HAS_NMI_SAFE_THIS_CPU_OPS to arch/s390/Kconfig, which will
cause NEED_SRCU_NMI_SAFE to be deselected, thus preserving the current
srcu_read_lock() behavior.
