On s390 PCI functions may be hotplugged individually even when they
belong to a multi-function device. In particular on an SR-IOV device VFs
may be removed and later re-added.
In commit a50297cf8235 ("s390/pci: separate zbus creation from
scanning") it was missed however that struct pci_bus and struct
zpci_bus's resource list retained a reference to the PCI functions MMIO
resources even though those resources are released and freed on
hot-unplug. These stale resources may subsequently be claimed when the
PCI function re-appears resulting in use-after-free.
One idea of fixing this use-after-free in s390 specific code that was
investigated was to simply keep resources around from the moment a PCI
function first appeared until the whole virtual PCI bus created for
a multi-function device disappears. The problem with this however is
that due to the requirement of artificial MMIO addreesses (address
cookies) extra logic is then needed to keep the address cookies
compatible on re-plug. At the same time the MMIO resources semantically
belong to the PCI function so tying their lifecycle to the function
seems more logical.
Instead a simpler approach is to remove the resources of an individually
hot-unplugged PCI function from the PCI bus's resource list while
keeping the resources of other PCI functions on the PCI bus untouched.
This is done by introducing pci_bus_remove_resource() to remove an
individual resource. Similarly the resource also needs to be removed
from the struct zpci_bus's resource list. It turns out however, that
there is really no need to add the MMIO resources to the struct
zpci_bus's resource list at all and instead we can simply use the
zpci_bar_struct's resource pointer directly.

The code which handles the ipl report is searching for a free location
in memory where it could copy the component and certificate entries to.
It checks for intersection between the sections required for the kernel
and the component/certificate data area, but fails to check whether
the data structures linking these data areas together intersect.
This might cause the iplreport copy code to overwrite the iplreport
itself. Fix this by adding two addtional intersection checks.

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
- Fix two kprobe reenter bugs revealed by a recently added kprobe kunit
test

Recent test_kprobe_missed kprobes kunit test uncovers the following
problem. Once kprobe is triggered from another kprobe (kprobe reenter),
all future kprobes on this cpu are considered as kprobe reenter, thus
pre_handler and post_handler are not being called and kprobes are counted
as "missed".
Commit b9599798f953 ("[S390] kprobes: activation and deactivation")
introduced a simpler scheme for kprobes (de)activation and status
tracking by using push_kprobe/pop_kprobe, which supposed to work for
both initial kprobe entry as well as kprobe reentry and helps to avoid
handling those two cases differently. The problem is that a sequence of
calls in case of kprobes reenter:
push_kprobe() <- NULL (current_kprobe)
push_kprobe() <- kprobe1 (current_kprobe)
pop_kprobe() -> kprobe1 (current_kprobe)
pop_kprobe() -> kprobe1 (current_kprobe)
leaves "kprobe1" as "current_kprobe" on this cpu, instead of setting it
to NULL. In fact push_kprobe/pop_kprobe can only store a single state
(there is just one prev_kprobe in kprobe_ctlblk). Which is a hack but
sufficient, there is no need to have another prev_kprobe just to store
NULL. To make a simple and backportable fix simply reset "prev_kprobe"
when kprobe is poped from this "stack". No need to worry about
"kprobe_status" in this case, because its value is only checked when
current_kprobe != NULL.

The reason for this error report is that kprobes handling code failed
to restore irqs.
The problem is that when kprobe is triggered from another kprobe
post_handler current sequence of enable_singlestep / disable_singlestep
is the following:
enable_singlestep <- original kprobe (saves kprobe_saved_imask)
enable_singlestep <- kprobe triggered from post_handler (clobbers kprobe_saved_imask)
disable_singlestep <- kprobe triggered from post_handler (restores kprobe_saved_imask)
disable_singlestep <- original kprobe (restores wrong clobbered kprobe_saved_imask)
There is just one kprobe_ctlblk per cpu and both calls saves and
loads irq mask to kprobe_saved_imask. To fix the problem simply move
resume_execution (which calls disable_singlestep) before calling
post_handler. This also fixes the problem that post_handler is called
with pt_regs which were not yet adjusted after single-stepping.

Commit f05f62d04271f ("s390/vmem: get rid of memory segment list")
reshuffled the call to vmem_add_mapping() in __segment_load(), which now
overwrites rc after it was set to contain the segment type code.
As result, __segment_load() will now always return 0 on success, which
corresponds to the segment type code SEG_TYPE_SW, i.e. a writeable
segment. This results in a kernel crash when loading a read-only segment
as dcssblk block device, and trying to write to it.
Instead of reshuffling code again, make sure to return the segment type
on success, and also describe this rather delicate and unexpected logic
in the function comment. Also initialize new segtype variable with
invalid value, to prevent possible future confusion.

If a machine check interrupt hits while user process is
running __s390_handle_mcck() helper function is called
directly from the interrupt handler and terminates the
current process by calling make_task_dead() routine.
The make_task_dead() is not allowed to be called from
interrupt context which forces the machine check handler
switch to the kernel stack and enable local interrupts
first.
The __s390_handle_mcck() could also be called to service
pending work, but this time from the external interrupts
handler. It is the machine check handler that establishes
the work and schedules the external interrupt, therefore
the machine check interrupt itself should be disabled
while reading out the corresponding variable:
local_mcck_disable();
mcck = *this_cpu_ptr(&cpu_mcck);
memset(this_cpu_ptr(&cpu_mcck), 0, sizeof(mcck));
local_mcck_enable();
However, local_mcck_disable() does not have effect when
__s390_handle_mcck() is called directly form the machine
check handler, since the machine check interrupt is still
disabled. Therefore, it is not the opening bracket to the
following local_mcck_enable() function.
Simplify the user process termination flow by scheduling
the external interrupt and killing the affected process
from the interrupt context.
Assume a kernel-generated signal is always delivered and
ignore a value returned by do_send_sig_info() funciton.

Use READ_ONCE_ALIGNED_128() to read the previous value in front of a

do the same.

Add an s390 specific READ_ONCE_ALIGNED_128() helper, which can be used for
fast block concurrent (atomic) 128-bit accesses.
The used lpq instruction requires 128-bit alignment. This is also the
reason why the compiler doesn't emit this instruction if __READ_ONCE() is
used for 128-bit accesses.

Introduce a new ap queue status register wrapper union to access register
wide values. So the inline assembler only sees register wide values but the
surrounding code may use a more structured view of the same value and a
reader of the code (and the compiler) gets a clear understanding about the
mapping between fields and register values.
All the changes to access the ap queue status are local to the inline
functions within ap.h. However, the struct ap_qirq_ctrl has been replaces
by a union for same reason and this needed slight adaptions in the calling
code.

When a machine check is received while in SIE, it is reinjected into the
guest in some cases. The respective code needs to access the sie_block,
which is taken from the backed up R14.
Since reinjection only occurs while we are in SIE (i.e. between the
labels sie_entry and sie_leave in entry.S and thus if CIF_MCCK_GUEST is
set), the backed up R14 will always contain a physical address in
s390_backup_mcck_info.
This currently works, because virtual and physical addresses are
the same.
Add phys_to_virt() to resolve the virtual-physical confusion.

- Fix a crash when using eVMCS's enlighted MSR bitmaps
Generic:
- Clean up the hardware enable and initialization flow, which was
scattered around multiple arch-specific hooks. Instead, just let

Pull iommu updates from Joerg Roedel:
- Consolidate iommu_map/unmap functions.
There have been blocking and atomic variants so far, but that was

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
"Core:
- Add dedicated kmem_cache for typical/small skb->head, avoid having
to access struct page at kfree time, and improve memory use.
- Introduce sysctl to set default RPS configuration for new netdevs.
- Define Netlink protocol specification format which can be used to
describe messages used by each family and auto-generate parsers.
Add tools for generating kernel data structures and uAPI headers.
- Expose all net/core sysctls inside netns.
- Remove 4s sleep in netpoll if carrier is instantly detected on
boot.
- Add configurable limit of MDB entries per port, and port-vlan.
- Continue populating drop reasons throughout the stack.
- Retire a handful of legacy Qdiscs and classifiers.
Protocols:
- Support IPv4 big TCP (TSO frames larger than 64kB).
- Add IP_LOCAL_PORT_RANGE socket option, to control local port range
on socket by socket basis.
- Track and report in procfs number of MPTCP sockets used.
- Support mixing IPv4 and IPv6 flows in the in-kernel MPTCP path
manager.
- IPv6: don't check net.ipv6.route.max_size and rely on garbage
collection to free memory (similarly to IPv4).
- Support Penultimate Segment Pop (PSP) flavor in SRv6 (RFC8986).
- ICMP: add per-rate limit counters.
- Add support for user scanning requests in ieee802154.
- Remove static WEP support.
- Support minimal Wi-Fi 7 Extremely High Throughput (EHT) rate
reporting.
- WiFi 7 EHT channel puncturing support (client & AP).
BPF:
- Add a rbtree data structure following the "next-gen data structure"
precedent set by recently added linked list, that is, by using
kfunc + kptr instead of adding a new BPF map type.
- Expose XDP hints via kfuncs with initial support for RX hash and
timestamp metadata.
- Add BPF_F_NO_TUNNEL_KEY extension to bpf_skb_set_tunnel_key to
better support decap on GRE tunnel devices not operating in collect
metadata.
- Improve x86 JIT's codegen for PROBE_MEM runtime error checks.
- Remove the need for trace_printk_lock for bpf_trace_printk and
bpf_trace_vprintk helpers.
- Extend libbpf's bpf_tracing.h support for tracing arguments of
kprobes/uprobes and syscall as a special case.
- Significantly reduce the search time for module symbols by
livepatch and BPF.
- Enable cpumasks to be used as kptrs, which is useful for tracing
programs tracking which tasks end up running on which CPUs in
different time intervals.
- Add support for BPF trampoline on s390x and riscv64.
- Add capability to export the XDP features supported by the NIC.
- Add __bpf_kfunc tag for marking kernel functions as kfuncs.
- Add cgroup.memory=nobpf kernel parameter option to disable BPF
memory accounting for container environments.
Netfilter:
- Remove the CLUSTERIP target. It has been marked as obsolete for
years, and we still have WARN splats wrt races of the out-of-band
/proc interface installed by this target.
- Add 'destroy' commands to nf_tables. They are identical to the
existing 'delete' commands, but do not return an error if the
referenced object (set, chain, rule...) did not exist.
Driver API:
- Improve cpumask_local_spread() locality to help NICs set the right
IRQ affinity on AMD platforms.
- Separate C22 and C45 MDIO bus transactions more clearly.
- Introduce new DCB table to control DSCP rewrite on egress.
- Support configuration of Physical Layer Collision Avoidance (PLCA)
Reconciliation Sublayer (RS) (802.3cg-2019). Modern version of
shared medium Ethernet.
- Support for MAC Merge layer (IEEE 802.3-2018 clause 99). Allowing
preemption of low priority frames by high priority frames.
- Add support for controlling MACSec offload using netlink SET.
- Rework devlink instance refcounts to allow registration and
de-registration under the instance lock. Split the code into
multiple files, drop some of the unnecessarily granular locks and
factor out common parts of netlink operation handling.
- Add TX frame aggregation parameters (for USB drivers).
- Add a new attr TCA_EXT_WARN_MSG to report TC (offload) warning
messages with notifications for debug.
- Allow offloading of UDP NEW connections via act_ct.
- Add support for per action HW stats in TC.
- Support hardware miss to TC action (continue processing in SW from
a specific point in the action chain).
- Warn if old Wireless Extension user space interface is used with
modern cfg80211/mac80211 drivers. Do not support Wireless
Extensions for Wi-Fi 7 devices at all. Everyone should switch to
using nl80211 interface instead.
- Improve the CAN bit timing configuration. Use extack to return
error messages directly to user space, update the SJW handling,
including the definition of a new default value that will benefit
CAN-FD controllers, by increasing their oscillator tolerance.

Pull s390 updates from Heiko Carstens:
- Large cleanup of the con3270/tty3270 driver. Among others this fixes:
- Background Color Support
- ASCII Line Character Support
- VT100 Support
- Geometries other than 80x24
- Cleanup and improve cmpxchg() code. Also add cmpxchg_user_key() to
uaccess functions, which will be used by KVM to access KVM guest
memory with a specific storage key
- Add support for user space events counting to CPUMF
- Cleanup the vfio/ccw code, which also allows now to properly support
2K Format-2 IDALs
- Move kernel page table allocation and initialization to decompressor,
which finally allows to enter the kernel with dynamic address
translation enabled. This in turn allows to get rid of code with
special handling in the kernel, which has to distinguish if DAT is on
or off
- Replace kretprobe with rethook
- Various improvements to vfio/ap queue resets:
- Use TAPQ to verify completion of a reset in progress rather than
multiple invocations of ZAPQ.
- Check TAPQ response codes when verifying successful completion of
ZAPQ.
- Fix erroneous handling of some error response codes.
- Increase the maximum amount of time to wait for successful
completion of ZAPQ
- Rework system call wrappers to get rid of alias functions, which were
only left on s390
- Cleanup diag288_wdt watchdog driver. It has been agreed on with
Guenter Roeck that this goes upstream via the s390 tree
- Add missing loadparm parameter handling for list-directed ECKD
ipl/reipl
- Various improvements to memory detection code
- Remove arch_cpu_idle_time() since the current implementation is
broken, and allows user space observable accounted idle times which
can temporarily decrease
- Add Reset DAT-Protection support: (only) allow to change PTEs from RO
to RW with a new RDP instruction. Unlike the currently used IPTE
instruction, this does not necessarily guarantee that TLBs of all
CPUs are synchronously flushed; and that remote CPUs can see spurious
protection faults. The overall improvement for not requiring an all
CPU synchronization, like it is required with IPTE, should be
beneficial

Use the per-cpu CIF_ENABLED_WAIT flag to decide if an interrupt
occurred while a cpu was idle, instead of checking two conditions
within the old psw.
Also move clearing of the CIF_ENABLED_WAIT bit to the early interrupt
handler, which in turn makes arch_vcpu_is_preempted() also a bit more
precise, since the flag is now cleared before interrupt handlers have
been called.

Baoquan He reported lots of KFENCE reports when /proc/kcore is read,
e.g. with crash or even simpler with dd:
BUG: KFENCE: invalid read in copy_from_kernel_nofault+0x5e/0x120
Invalid read at 0x00000000f4f5149f:
copy_from_kernel_nofault+0x5e/0x120
read_kcore+0x6b2/0x870
proc_reg_read+0x9a/0xf0
vfs_read+0x94/0x270
ksys_read+0x70/0x100
__do_syscall+0x1d0/0x200
system_call+0x82/0xb0
The reason for this is that read_kcore() simply reads memory that might
have been unmapped by KFENCE with copy_from_kernel_nofault(). Any fault due
to pages being unmapped by KFENCE would be handled gracefully by the fault
handler (exception table fixup).
However the s390 fault handler first reports the fault, and only afterwards
would perform the exception table fixup. Most architectures have this in
reversed order, which also avoids the false positive KFENCE reports when an
unmapped page is accessed.
Therefore change the s390 fault handler so it handles exception table
fixups before KFENCE page faults are reported.

Commit bf64f0517e5d ("s390/mem_detect: handle online memory limit
just once") introduced truncation of mem_detect online ranges
based on identity mapping size. For kdump case however the full
set of online memory ranges has to be feed into memblock_physmem_add
so that crashed system memory could be extracted.
Instead of truncating introduce a "usable limit" which is respected by
mem_detect api. Also add extra online memory ranges iterator which still
provides full set of online memory ranges disregarding the "usable limit".

RDP instruction allows to reset DAT-protection bit in a PTE, with less
CPU synchronization overhead than IPTE instruction. In particular, IPTE
can cause machine-wide synchronization overhead, and excessive IPTE usage
can negatively impact machine performance.
RDP can be used instead of IPTE, if the new PTE only differs in SW bits
and _PAGE_PROTECT HW bit, for PTE protection changes from RO to RW.
SW PTE bit changes are allowed, e.g. for dirty and young tracking, but none
of the other HW-defined part of the PTE must change. This is because the
architecture forbids such changes to an active and valid PTE, which
is why invalidation with IPTE is always used first, before writing a new
entry.
The RDP optimization helps mainly for fault-driven SW dirty-bit tracking.
Writable PTEs are initially always mapped with HW _PAGE_PROTECT bit set,
to allow SW dirty-bit accounting on first write protection fault, where
the DAT-protection would then be reset. The reset is now done with RDP
instead of IPTE, if RDP instruction is available.
RDP cannot always guarantee that the DAT-protection reset is propagated
to all CPUs immediately. This means that spurious TLB protection faults
on other CPUs can now occur. For this, common code provides a
flush_tlb_fix_spurious_fault() handler, which will now be used to do a
CPU-local TLB flush. However, this will clear the whole TLB of a CPU, and
not just the affected entry. For more fine-grained flushing, by simply
doing a (local) RDP again, flush_tlb_fix_spurious_fault() would need to
also provide the PTE pointer.
Note that spurious TLB protection faults cannot really be distinguished
from racing pagetable updates, where another thread already installed the
correct PTE. In such a case, the local TLB flush would be unnecessary
overhead, but overall reduction of CPU synchronization overhead by not
using IPTE is still expected to be beneficial.

arch_cpu_idle_time() returns the idle time of any given cpu if it is in
idle, or zero if not. All if this is racy and partially incorrect. Time
stamps taken with store clock extended and store clock fast from different
cpus are compared, while the architecture states that this is nothing which
can be relied on (see Principles of Operation; Chapter 4, "Setting and
Inspecting the Clock").
A more fundamental problem is that the timestamp when a cpu is leaving idle
is taken early in the assembler part of the interrupt handler, and this
value is only transferred many cycles later to the cpu's per-cpu idle data
structure.
This per cpu data structure is read by arch_cpu_idle() to tell for which
period of time a remote cpu is idle: if only an idle_enter value is
present, the assumed idle time of the cpu is calculated by taking a local
timestamp and returning the difference of the local timestamp and the
idle_enter value. This is potentially incorrect, since the remote cpu may
have already left idle, but the taken timestamp may not have been
transferred to the per-cpu data structure. This in turn means that too much
idle time may be reported for a cpu, and a subsequent calculation of system
idle time may result in a smaller value.
Instead of coming up with even more complex code trying to fix this, just
remove this code, and only account idle time of a cpu, after idle state is
left.
Another minor bug is that it is assumed that timestamps are non-zero, which
is not necessarily the case for timestamps taken with store clock
fast. This however is just a very minor problem, since this can only happen
when the epoch increases.
