Removing the CONFIG_PROTECTED_VIRTUALIZATION_GUEST ifdefs and config
option as well as CONFIG_KVM ifdefs in uv files.
Having this configurable has been more of a pain than a help.
It's time to remove the ifdefs and the config option.

Remove support for the "Crypto usage statistics" feature
(CONFIG_CRYPTO_STATS). This feature does not appear to have ever been
used, and it is harmful because it significantly reduces performance and
is a large maintenance burden.
Covering each of these points in detail:
1. Feature is not being used
Since these generic crypto statistics are only readable using netlink,
it's fairly straightforward to look for programs that use them. I'm
unable to find any evidence that any such programs exist. For example,
Debian Code Search returns no hits except the kernel header and kernel
code itself and translations of the kernel header:
https://codesearch.debian.net/search?q=CRYPTOCFGA_STAT&literal=1&perpkg=1
The patch series that added this feature in 2018
(https://lore.kernel.org/linux-crypto/1537351855-16618-1-git-send-email-clabbe@baylibre.com/)
said "The goal is to have an ifconfig for crypto device." This doesn't
appear to have happened.
It's not clear that there is real demand for crypto statistics. Just
because the kernel provides other types of statistics such as I/O and
networking statistics and some people find those useful does not mean
that crypto statistics are useful too.
Further evidence that programs are not using CONFIG_CRYPTO_STATS is that
it was able to be disabled in RHEL and Fedora as a bug fix
(https://gitlab.com/redhat/centos-stream/src/kernel/centos-stream-9/-/merge_requests/2947).
Even further evidence comes from the fact that there are and have been
bugs in how the stats work, but they were never reported. For example,
before Linux v6.7 hash stats were double-counted in most cases.
There has also never been any documentation for this feature, so it
might be hard to use even if someone wanted to.
2. CONFIG_CRYPTO_STATS significantly reduces performance
Enabling CONFIG_CRYPTO_STATS significantly reduces the performance of
the crypto API, even if no program ever retrieves the statistics. This
primarily affects systems with a large number of CPUs. For example,
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/2039576 reported
that Lustre client encryption performance improved from 21.7GB/s to
48.2GB/s by disabling CONFIG_CRYPTO_STATS.
It can be argued that this means that CONFIG_CRYPTO_STATS should be
optimized with per-cpu counters similar to many of the networking
counters. But no one has done this in 5+ years. This is consistent
with the fact that the feature appears to be unused, so there seems to
be little interest in improving it as opposed to just disabling it.
It can be argued that because CONFIG_CRYPTO_STATS is off by default,
performance doesn't matter. But Linux distros tend to error on the side
of enabling options. The option is enabled in Ubuntu and Arch Linux,
and until recently was enabled in RHEL and Fedora (see above). So, even
just having the option available is harmful to users.
3. CONFIG_CRYPTO_STATS is a large maintenance burden
There are over 1000 lines of code associated with CONFIG_CRYPTO_STATS,
spread among 32 files. It significantly complicates much of the
implementation of the crypto API. After the initial submission, many
fixes and refactorings have consumed effort of multiple people to keep
this feature "working". We should be spending this effort elsewhere.

Pull kselftest update from Shuah Khan:
- livepatch restructuring to move the module out of lib to be built as
a out-of-tree modules during kselftest build. This makes it easier
change, debug and rebuild the tests by running make on the
selftests/livepatch directory, which is not currently possible since
the modules on lib/livepatch are build and installed using the main
makefile modules target.
- livepatch restructuring fixes for problems found by kernel test
robot. The change skips the test if kernel-devel isn't installed
(default value of KDIR), or if KDIR variable passed doesn't exists.
- resctrl test restructuring and new non-contiguous CBMs CAT test
- new ktap_helpers to print diagnostic messages, pass/fail tests based
on exit code, abort test, and finish the test.
- a new test verify power supply properties.
- a new ftrace to exercise function tracer across cpu hotplug.
- timeout increase for mqueue test to allow the test to run on i3.metal
AWS instances.
- minor spelling corrections in several tests.
- missing gitignore files and changes to existing gitignore files.

The modules are being moved from lib/livepatch to
tools/testing/selftests/livepatch/test_modules.
This code moving will allow writing more complex tests, like for example an
userspace C code that will call a livepatched kernel function.
The modules are now built as out-of-tree
modules, but being part of the kernel source means they will be maintained.
Another advantage of the code moving is to be able to easily change,
debug and rebuild the tests by running make on the selftests/livepatch
directory, which is not currently possible since the modules on
lib/livepatch are build and installed using the "modules" target.
The current approach also keeps the ability to execute the tests manually
by executing the scripts inside selftests/livepatch directory, as it's
currently supported. If the modules are modified, they needed to be
rebuilt before running the scripts though.
The modules are built before running the selftests when using the
kselftest invocations:
make kselftest TARGETS=livepatch
or
make -C tools/testing/selftests/livepatch run_tests
Having the modules being built as out-of-modules requires changing the
currently used 'modprobe' by 'insmod' and adapt the test scripts that
check for the kernel message buffer.
Now it is possible to only compile the modules by running:
make -C tools/testing/selftests/livepatch/
This way the test modules and other test program can be built in order
to be packaged if so desired.
As there aren't any modules being built on lib/livepatch, remove the
TEST_LIVEPATCH Kconfig and it's references.
Note: "make gen_tar" packages the pre-built binaries into the tarball.
It means that it will store the test modules pre-built for
the kernel running on the build host.
Note that these modules need not binary compatible with
the kernel built from the same sources. But the same
is true for other packaged selftest binaries.
The entire kernel sources are needed for rebuilding
the selftests on another system.

Pull netfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This extends the netfs helper library that network filesystems can use
to replace their own implementations. Both afs and 9p are ported. cifs
is ready as well but the patches are way bigger and will be routed
separately once this is merged. That will remove lots of code as well.
The overal goal is to get high-level I/O and knowledge of the page
cache and ouf of the filesystem drivers. This includes knowledge about
the existence of pages and folios
The pull request converts afs and 9p. This removes about 800 lines of
code from afs and 300 from 9p. For 9p it is now possible to do writes
in larger than a page chunks. Additionally, multipage folio support
can be turned on for 9p. Separate patches exist for cifs removing
another 2000+ lines. I've included detailed information in the
individual pulls I took.
Summary:
- Add NFS-style (and Ceph-style) locking around DIO vs buffered I/O
calls to prevent these from happening at the same time.
- Support for direct and unbuffered I/O.
- Support for write-through caching in the page cache.
- O_*SYNC and RWF_*SYNC writes use write-through rather than writing
to the page cache and then flushing afterwards.
- Support for write-streaming.
- Support for write grouping.
- Skip reads for which the server could only return zeros or EOF.
- The fscache module is now part of the netfs library and the
corresponding maintainer entry is updated.
- Some helpers from the fscache subsystem are renamed to mark them as
belonging to the netfs library.
- Follow-up fixes for the netfs library.
- Follow-up fixes for the 9p conversion"

promised the removal of the fs/autofs/Kconfig fragment for AUTOFS4_FS

Get rid of it mechanically:

xargs sed -i 's/AUTOFS4_FS/AUTOFS_FS/'
Also just remove the AUTOFS4_FS config option stub. Anybody who hasn't

everybody enables the compile time option now, which means people who

is increased by ~50% if BTF debug info is generated.
Therefore remove CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF from all defconfigs and introduce a
btf.config addon config file. Quickly enabling CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF into
the current kernel config can be done by simply invoking

Patch series "remove Xen tmem leftovers".
Since the removal of the Xen tmem driver in 2019, the cleancache hooks
are entirely unused, as are large parts of frontswap. This series
against linux-next (with the folio changes included) removes
cleancaches, and cuts down frontswap to the bits actually used by zswap.
This patch (of 13):
The cleancache subsystem is unused since the removal of Xen tmem driver
in commit 814bbf49dcd0 ("xen: remove tmem driver").

The HiperSockets Converged Interface (HSCI) introduced with commit
4e20e73e631a ("s390/qeth: Switchdev event handler") requires
CONFIG_SWITCHDEV=y to be usable. Similarly when using Linux controlled
SR-IOV capable PF devices with the mlx5_core driver CONFIG_SWITCHDEV=y
as well as CONFIG_MLX5_ESWITCH=y are necessary to actually get link on
the created VFs. So let's add these to the defconfig to make both types
of devices usable. Note also that these options are already enabled in
most current distribution kernels.

Add an implementation of the ChaCha20 stream cipher (see e.g. RFC 7539)
that makes use of z13's vector instruction set extension.
The original implementation is by Andy Polyakov which is
adapted for kernel use.
Four to six blocks are processed in parallel resulting in a performance
gain for inputs >= 256 bytes.
chacha20-generic
1 operation in 622 cycles (256 bytes)
1 operation in 2346 cycles (1024 bytes)
chacha20-s390
1 operation in 218 cycles (256 bytes)
1 operation in 647 cycles (1024 bytes)

Support for expanded storage was only available until z13 and z/VM 6.3
respectively. However there haven't been any use cases a long time
before for this device driver.
Therefore remove it.

doing make install on an Ubuntu that is installed on an LVM will fail to

In former times, the virtio-console code had to be compiled into
the kernel since the old guest virtio transport had some hard de-
pendencies. But since the old virtio transport has been removed in
commit 7fb2b2d51244 ("s390/virtio: remove the old KVM virtio transport"),
we do not have this limitation anymore.
Commit bb533ec8bacd ("s390/config: do not select VIRTIO_CONSOLE via
Kconfig") then also lifted the hard setting in the Kconfig system, so
we can finally switch the CONFIG_VIRTIO_CONSOLE knob to compile this
driver as a module now, making it more flexible for the user to only
load it if it is really required.

All major distributions ship with CONFIG_PCI_IOV=y so let us enable it
for our defconfigs as well.
Note also that since commit e5794cf1a270 ("s390/pci: create links
between PFs and VFs") we enabled proper linking between PFs and their
associated VFs so with this commit and its fixes applied we can fully
support handling SR-IOV enabled PFs.

Pull module updates from Jessica Yu:
- Retire EXPORT_UNUSED_SYMBOL() and EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL_FUTURE(). These
export types were introduced between 2006 - 2008. All the of the
unused symbols have been long removed and gpl future symbols were
converted to gpl quite a long time ago, and I don't believe these
export types have been used ever since. So, I think it should be safe
to retire those export types now (Christoph Hellwig)
- Refactor and clean up some aged code cruft in the module loader
(Christoph Hellwig)
- Build {,module_}kallsyms_on_each_symbol only when livepatching is
enabled, as it is the only caller (Christoph Hellwig)
- Unexport find_module() and module_mutex and fix the last module
callers to not rely on these anymore. Make module_mutex internal to
the module loader (Christoph Hellwig)
- Harden ELF checks on module load and validate ELF structures before
checking the module signature (Frank van der Linden)
- Fix undefined symbol warning for clang (Fangrui Song)
- Fix smatch warning (Dan Carpenter)
