cf264e1329 cachestat: implement cachestat syscall
There is currently no good way to query the page cache state of large file
sets and directory trees.  There is mincore(), but it scales poorly: the
kernel writes out a lot of bitmap data that userspace has to aggregate,
when the user really doesn not care about per-page information in that
case.  The user also needs to mmap and unmap each file as it goes along,
which can be quite slow as well.

Some use cases where this information could come in handy:
  * Allowing database to decide whether to perform an index scan or
    direct table queries based on the in-memory cache state of the
    index.
  * Visibility into the writeback algorithm, for performance issues
    diagnostic.
  * Workload-aware writeback pacing: estimating IO fulfilled by page
    cache (and IO to be done) within a range of a file, allowing for
    more frequent syncing when and where there is IO capacity, and
    batching when there is not.
  * Computing memory usage of large files/directory trees, analogous to
    the du tool for disk usage.

More information about these use cases could be found in the following
thread:

https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20230315170934.GA97793@cmpxchg.org/

This patch implements a new syscall that queries cache state of a file and
summarizes the number of cached pages, number of dirty pages, number of
pages marked for writeback, number of (recently) evicted pages, etc.  in a
given range.  Currently, the syscall is only wired in for x86
architecture.

NAME
    cachestat - query the page cache statistics of a file.

SYNOPSIS
    #include <sys/mman.h>

    struct cachestat_range {
        __u64 off;
        __u64 len;
    };

    struct cachestat {
        __u64 nr_cache;
        __u64 nr_dirty;
        __u64 nr_writeback;
        __u64 nr_evicted;
        __u64 nr_recently_evicted;
    };

    int cachestat(unsigned int fd, struct cachestat_range *cstat_range,
        struct cachestat *cstat, unsigned int flags);

DESCRIPTION
    cachestat() queries the number of cached pages, number of dirty
    pages, number of pages marked for writeback, number of evicted
    pages, number of recently evicted pages, in the bytes range given by
    `off` and `len`.

    An evicted page is a page that is previously in the page cache but
    has been evicted since. A page is recently evicted if its last
    eviction was recent enough that its reentry to the cache would
    indicate that it is actively being used by the system, and that
    there is memory pressure on the system.

    These values are returned in a cachestat struct, whose address is
    given by the `cstat` argument.

    The `off` and `len` arguments must be non-negative integers. If
    `len` > 0, the queried range is [`off`, `off` + `len`]. If `len` ==
    0, we will query in the range from `off` to the end of the file.

    The `flags` argument is unused for now, but is included for future
    extensibility. User should pass 0 (i.e no flag specified).

    Currently, hugetlbfs is not supported.

    Because the status of a page can change after cachestat() checks it
    but before it returns to the application, the returned values may
    contain stale information.

RETURN VALUE
    On success, cachestat returns 0. On error, -1 is returned, and errno
    is set to indicate the error.

ERRORS
    EFAULT cstat or cstat_args points to an invalid address.

    EINVAL invalid flags.

    EBADF  invalid file descriptor.

    EOPNOTSUPP file descriptor is of a hugetlbfs file

556eb8b791 Driver core changes for 6.4-rc1
Here is the large set of driver core changes for 6.4-rc1.
 
 Once again, a busy development cycle, with lots of changes happening in
 the driver core in the quest to be able to move "struct bus" and "struct
 class" into read-only memory, a task now complete with these changes.
 
 This will make the future rust interactions with the driver core more
 "provably correct" as well as providing more obvious lifetime rules for
 all busses and classes in the kernel.
 
 The changes required for this did touch many individual classes and
 busses as many callbacks were changed to take const * parameters
 instead.  All of these changes have been submitted to the various
 subsystem maintainers, giving them plenty of time to review, and most of
 them actually did so.
 
 Other than those changes, included in here are a small set of other
 things:
   - kobject logging improvements
   - cacheinfo improvements and updates
   - obligatory fw_devlink updates and fixes
   - documentation updates
   - device property cleanups and const * changes
   - firwmare loader dependency fixes.
 
 All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
 problems.

0da6e5fd6c gcc: disable '-Warray-bounds' for gcc-13 too
We started disabling '-Warray-bounds' for gcc-12 originally on s390,
because it resulted in some warnings that weren't realistically fixable
(commit 8b202ee218: "s390: disable -Warray-bounds").

That s390-specific issue was then found to be less common elsewhere, but
generic (see f0be87c42c: "gcc-12: disable '-Warray-bounds' universally
for now"), and then later expanded the version check was expanded to
gcc-11 (5a41237ad1: "gcc: disable -Warray-bounds for gcc-11 too").

And it turns out that I was much too optimistic in thinking that it's
all going to go away, and here we are with gcc-13 showing all the same
issues.  So instead of expanding this one version at a time, let's just
disable it for gcc-11+, and put an end limit to it only when we actually
find a solution.

Yes, I'm sure some of this is because the kernel just does odd things
(like our "container_of()" use, but also knowingly playing games with
things like linker tables and array layouts).

And yes, some of the warnings are likely signs of real bugs, but when
there are hundreds of false positives, that doesn't really help.

Oh well.

721da5cee9 driver core: remove CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED and CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED_V2
CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED was added in commit 88a22c985e
("CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED") in 2006 to allow systems with older versions
of some tools (i.e. Fedora 3's version of udev) to boot properly.  Four
years later, in 2010, the option was attempted to be removed as most of
userspace should have been fixed up properly by then, but some kernel
developers clung to those old systems and refused to update, so we added
CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED_V2 in commit e52eec13cd ("SYSFS: Allow boot
time switching between deprecated and modern sysfs layout") to allow
them to continue to boot properly, and we allowed a boot time parameter
to be used to switch back to the old format if needed.

Over time, the logic that was covered under these config options was
slowly removed from individual driver subsystems successfully, removed,
and the only thing that is now left in the kernel are some changes in
the block layer's representation in sysfs where real directories are
used instead of symlinks like normal.

Because the original changes were done to userspace tools in 2006, and
all distros that use those tools are long end-of-life, and older
non-udev-based systems do not care about the block layer's sysfs
representation, it is time to finally remove this old logic and the
config entries from the kernel.

    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.

    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.

6ded8a28ed bootconfig: Default BOOT_CONFIG_FORCE to y if BOOT_CONFIG_EMBED
When a kernel is built with CONFIG_BOOT_CONFIG_EMBED=y, the intention
will normally be to unconditionally provide the specified kernel-boot
arguments to the kernel, as opposed to requiring a separately provided
bootconfig parameter.  Therefore, make the BOOT_CONFIG_FORCE Kconfig
option default to y in kernels built with CONFIG_BOOT_CONFIG_EMBED=y.

The old semantics may be obtained by manually overriding this default.

b743852ccc Allow forcing unconditional bootconfig processing
The BOOT_CONFIG family of Kconfig options allows a bootconfig file
containing kernel boot parameters to be embedded into an initrd or into
the kernel itself.  This can be extremely useful when deploying kernels
in cases where some of the boot parameters depend on the kernel version
rather than on the server hardware, firmware, or workload.

Unfortunately, the "bootconfig" kernel parameter must be specified in
order to cause the kernel to look for the embedded bootconfig file,
and it clearly does not help to embed this "bootconfig" kernel parameter
into that file.

Therefore, provide a new BOOT_CONFIG_FORCE Kconfig option that causes the
kernel to act as if the "bootconfig" kernel parameter had been specified.
In other words, kernels built with CONFIG_BOOT_CONFIG_FORCE=y will look
for the embedded bootconfig file even when the "bootconfig" kernel
parameter is omitted.  This permits kernel-version-dependent kernel
boot parameters to be embedded into the kernel image without the need to
(for example) update large numbers of boot loaders.

 o	A strange interaction between PID-namespace unshare and the
 	RCU-tasks grace period that results in a low-probability but
 	very real hang.
 
 o	A race between an RCU tasks rude grace period on a single-CPU
 	system and CPU-hotplug addition of the second CPU that can result
 	in a too-short grace period.
 
 o	A race between shrinking RCU tasks down to a single callback list
 	and queuing a new callback to some other CPU, but where that
 	queuing is delayed for more than an RCU grace period.  This can
 	result in that callback being stranded on the non-boot CPU.

 - Documentation updates

 - Miscellaneous fixes, perhaps most notably:

      - Throttling callback invocation based on the number of callbacks
        that are now ready to invoke instead of on the total number of
        callbacks

      - Several patches that suppress false-positive boot-time

      - Make expedited RCU CPU stall warnings dump stacks of any tasks
        that are blocking the stalled grace period. (Normal RCU CPU
        stall warnings have done this for many years)

      - Lazy-callback fixes to avoid delays during boot, suspend, and
        resume. (Note that lazy callbacks must be explicitly enabled, so
        this should not (yet) affect production use cases)

 - Make kfree_rcu() and friends take advantage of polled grace periods,
   thus reducing memory footprint by almost two orders of magnitude,
   admittedly on a microbenchmark

   This also begins the transition from kfree_rcu(p) to
   kfree_rcu_mightsleep(p). This transition was motivated by bugs where
   kfree_rcu(p), which can block, was typed instead of the intended

    helper along with BPF selftests, from Ziyang Xuan.

14) Simplify the parsing logic of structure parameters for BPF trampoline
    in the x86-64 JIT compiler, from Pu Lehui.

15) Get BTF working for kernels with CONFIG_RUST enabled by excluding
    Rust compilation units with pahole, from Martin Rodriguez Reboredo.

    from Kui-Feng Lee.

17) Disable stack protection for BPF objects in bpftool given BPF backends
    don't support it, from Holger Hoffstätte.

c1177979af btf, scripts: Exclude Rust CUs with pahole
Version 1.24 of pahole has the capability to exclude compilation units (CUs)
of specific languages [1] [2]. Rust, as of writing, is not currently supported
by pahole and if it's used with a build that has BTF debugging enabled it
results in malformed kernel and module binaries [3]. So it's better for pahole
to exclude Rust CUs until support for it arrives.

5a41237ad1 gcc: disable -Warray-bounds for gcc-11 too
We had already disabled this warning for gcc-12 due to bugs in the value
range analysis, but it turns out we end up having some similar problems
with gcc-11.3 too, so let's disable it there too.

Older gcc versions end up being increasingly less relevant, and
hopefully clang and newer version of gcc (ie gcc-13) end up working
reliably enough that we still get the build coverage even when we

af7f588d8f sched: Introduce per-memory-map concurrency ID
This feature allows the scheduler to expose a per-memory map concurrency
ID to user-space. This concurrency ID is within the possible cpus range,
and is temporarily (and uniquely) assigned while threads are actively
running within a memory map. If a memory map has fewer threads than
cores, or is limited to run on few cores concurrently through sched
affinity or cgroup cpusets, the concurrency IDs will be values close
to 0, thus allowing efficient use of user-space memory for per-cpu
data structures.

This feature is meant to be exposed by a new rseq thread area field.

The primary purpose of this feature is to do the heavy-lifting needed
by memory allocators to allow them to use per-cpu data structures
efficiently in the following situations:

- Single-threaded applications,
- Multi-threaded applications on large systems (many cores) with limited
  cpu affinity mask,
- Multi-threaded applications on large systems (many cores) with
  restricted cgroup cpuset per container.

One of the key concern from scheduler maintainers is the overhead
associated with additional spin locks or atomic operations in the
scheduler fast-path. This is why the following optimization is
implemented.

On context switch between threads belonging to the same memory map,
transfer the mm_cid from prev to next without any atomic ops. This
takes care of use-cases involving frequent context switch between
threads belonging to the same memory map.

Additional optimizations can be done if the spin locks added when
context switching between threads belonging to different memory maps end
up being a performance bottleneck. Those are left out of this patch
though. A performance impact would have to be clearly demonstrated to
justify the added complexity.

The credit goes to Paul Turner (Google) for the original virtual cpu id
idea. This feature is implemented based on the discussions with Paul
Turner and Peter Oskolkov (Google), but I took the liberty to implement
scheduler fast-path optimizations and my own NUMA-awareness scheme. The
rumor has it that Google have been running a rseq vcpu_id extension
internally in production for a year. The tcmalloc source code indeed has
comments hinting at a vcpu_id prototype extension to the rseq system
call [1].

The following benchmarks do not show any significant overhead added to
the scheduler context switch by this feature:

* perf bench sched messaging (process)

Baseline:                    86.5±0.3 ms
With mm_cid:                 86.7±2.6 ms

* perf bench sched messaging (threaded)

Baseline:                    84.3±3.0 ms
With mm_cid:                 84.7±2.6 ms

* hackbench (process)

Baseline:                    82.9±2.7 ms
With mm_cid:                 82.9±2.9 ms

* hackbench (threaded)

Baseline:                    85.2±2.6 ms
With mm_cid:                 84.4±2.9 ms

3ba2c3ff98 modules changes for v6.2-rc1
Tux gets for xmass improving the average lookup performance of
 kallsyms_lookup_name() by 715x thanks to the work by Zhen Lei, which
 upgraded our old implementation from being O(n) to O(log(n)), while also
 retaining the old implementation support on /proc/kallsyms. The only
 penalty was increasing the memory footprint by 3 * kallsyms_num_syms.
 Folks who want to improve this further now also have a dedicated selftest
 facility through KALLSYMS_SELFTEST. Since I had to start reviewing other
 future kallsyms / modules enhancements by Nick Alcock (his stuff is not
 merged, it requires more work) I carefully reviewed and merged Zhen Lei's
 kallsyms changes through modules-next tree a bit less than a month ago.
 So this has been exposed on linux-next for about a month now with no
 reported regressions.
 
 Stephen Boyd added zstd in-kernel decompression support, but the only
 users of this would be folks using the load-pin LSM because otherwise
 we do module docompression in userspace. This is the newest code and
 was merged last week on modules-next.
 
 We spent a lot of time analyzing and coming to grips with a proper
 fix to an old modules regression which only recently came to light
 (since v5.3-rc1, May 2019) but even though I merged that fix onto
 modules-next last week I'm having second thoughts about it now as I was
 writing about that fix in this git tag message for you, as I found a few
 things we cannot quite justify there yet. So I'm going to push back to the
 drawing board again there until all i's are properly dotted. Yes, it's a
 regression but the issue has been there for 2 years now and it came up
 because of high end CPU count, it can wait a *tiny* bit more for a proper
 fix.
 
 The only other thing with mentioning is a minor boot time optimization by
 Rasmus Villemoes which deferes param_sysfs_init() to late init. The rest
 is cleanups and minor fixes.

30f3bb0977 kallsyms: Add self-test facility
Added test cases for basic functions and performance of functions
kallsyms_lookup_name(), kallsyms_on_each_symbol() and
kallsyms_on_each_match_symbol(). It also calculates the compression rate
of the kallsyms compression algorithm for the current symbol set.

The basic functions test begins by testing a set of symbols whose address
values are known. Then, traverse all symbol addresses and find the
corresponding symbol name based on the address. It's impossible to
determine whether these addresses are correct, but we can use the above
three functions along with the addresses to test each other. Due to the
traversal operation of kallsyms_on_each_symbol() is too slow, only 60
symbols can be tested in one second, so let it test on average once
every 128 symbols. The other two functions validate all symbols.

If the basic functions test is passed, print only performance test
results. If the test fails, print error information, but do not perform
subsequent performance tests.

Start self-test automatically after system startup if
CONFIG_KALLSYMS_SELFTEST=y.

e1789d7c75 kbuild: upgrade the orphan section warning to an error if CONFIG_WERROR is set
Andrew Cooper suggested upgrading the orphan section warning to a hard link
error. However Nathan Chancellor said outright turning the warning into an
error with no escape hatch might be too aggressive, as we have had these
warnings triggered by new compiler generated sections, and suggested turning
orphan sections into an error only if CONFIG_WERROR is set. Kees Cook echoed
and emphasized that the mandate from Linus is that we should avoid breaking
builds. It wrecks bisection, it causes problems across compiler versions, etc.

Thus upgrade the orphan section warning to a hard link error only if
CONFIG_WERROR is set.

30341ec95a init/Kconfig: fix unmet direct dependencies
Commit 3c07bfce92a5 ("proc: make config PROC_CHILDREN depend on PROC_FS")
make config PROC_CHILDREN depend on PROC_FS.

When CONFIG_PROC_FS is not set and CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE=y,
make menuconfig screams like this:

WARNING: unmet direct dependencies detected for PROC_CHILDREN
  Depends on [n]: PROC_FS [=n]
  Selected by [y]:
  - CHECKPOINT_RESTORE [=y]

CHECKPOINT_RESTORE would select PROC_CHILDREN which depends on PROC_FS,
so add depends on PROC_FS to CHECKPOINT_RESTORE to fix this.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:

 - Yu Zhao's Multi-Gen LRU patches are here. They've been under test in
   linux-next for a couple of months without, to my knowledge, any
   negative reports (or any positive ones, come to that).

 - Also the Maple Tree from Liam Howlett. An overlapping range-based
   tree for vmas. It it apparently slightly more efficient in its own
   right, but is mainly targeted at enabling work to reduce mmap_lock
   contention.

   Liam has identified a number of other tree users in the kernel which
   could be beneficially onverted to mapletrees.

   Yu Zhao has identified a hard-to-hit but "easy to fix" lockdep splat
   at [1]. This has yet to be addressed due to Liam's unfortunately
   timed vacation. He is now back and we'll get this fixed up.

 - Dmitry Vyukov introduces KMSAN: the Kernel Memory Sanitizer. It uses
   clang-generated instrumentation to detect used-unintialized bugs down
   to the single bit level.

   KMSAN keeps finding bugs. New ones, as well as the legacy ones.

 - Yang Shi adds a userspace mechanism (madvise) to induce a collapse of
   memory into THPs.

 - Zach O'Keefe has expanded Yang Shi's madvise(MADV_COLLAPSE) to
   support file/shmem-backed pages.

 - userfaultfd updates from Axel Rasmussen

 - zsmalloc cleanups from Alexey Romanov

 - cleanups from Miaohe Lin: vmscan, hugetlb_cgroup, hugetlb and
   memory-failure

 - Huang Ying adds enhancements to NUMA balancing memory tiering mode's
   page promotion, with a new way of detecting hot pages.

 - memcg updates from Shakeel Butt: charging optimizations and reduced
   memory consumption.

 - memcg cleanups from Kairui Song.

   tiering promotion paths. For optimizations by PMEM drivers, DRM
   drivers, etc.

 - NUMA hinting cleanups from David Hildenbrand.

 - xu xin added aditional userspace visibility into KSM merging
   activity.

Since 2d1c498072 ("mm: memcontrol: make swap tracking an integral part
of memory control"), CONFIG_MEMCG_SWAP hasn't been a user-visible config
option anymore, it just means CONFIG_MEMCG && CONFIG_SWAP.

Update the sites accordingly and drop the symbol.

[ While touching the docs, remove two references to CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM,
  which hasn't been a user-visible symbol for over half a decade. ]

02382aff72 powerpc/64: Remove PPC64 special case for cputime accounting default
Distro kernels tend to be moving to VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_GEN, and there
is not much reason why PPC64 should be special here. Remove the special
case and make the ppc64 and pseries defconfigs use GEN accounting
(others will use TICK, as-per Kconfig defaults).

VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_NATIVE does provide scaled vtime and stolen time
apportioned between system and user time, and vtime accounting is not
unconditionally enabled, and possibly other things. But it would be
better at this point to extend GEN to cover important missing features
rather than directing users back to a less used option.

a0a12c3ed0 asm goto: eradicate CC_HAS_ASM_GOTO
GCC has supported asm goto since 4.5, and Clang has since version 9.0.0.
The minimum supported versions of these tools for the build according to
Documentation/process/changes.rst are 5.1 and 11.0.0 respectively.

Remove the feature detection script, Kconfig option, and clean up some
fallback code that is no longer supported.

The removed script was also testing for a GCC specific bug that was
fixed in the 4.7 release.

Also remove workarounds for bpftrace using clang older than 9.0.0, since
other BPF backend fixes are required at this point.

e74acdf55d Modules updates for 6.0
For the 6.0 merge window the modules code shifts to cleanup and minor fixes
 effort. This is becomes much easier to do and review now due to the code
 split to its own directory from effort on the last kernel release. I expect
 to see more of this with time and as we expand on test coverage in the future.
 The cleanups and fixes come from usual suspects such as Christophe Leroy and
 Aaron Tomlin but there are also some other contributors.
 
 One particular minor fix worth mentioning is from Helge Deller, where he spotted
 a *forever* incorrect natural alignment on both ELF section header tables:
 
   * .altinstructions
   * __bug_table sections
 
 A lot of back and forth went on in trying to determine the ill effects of this
 misalignment being present for years and it has been determined there should
 be no real ill effects unless you have a buggy exception handler. Helge actually
 hit one of these buggy exception handlers on parisc which is how he ended up
 spotting this issue. When implemented correctly these paths with incorrect
 misalignment would just mean a performance penalty, but given that we are
 dealing with alternatives on modules and with the __bug_table (where info
 regardign BUG()/WARN() file/line information associated with it is stored)
 this really shouldn't be a big deal.
 
 The only other change with mentioning is the kmap() with kmap_local_page()
 and my only concern with that was on what is done after preemption, but the
 virtual addresses are restored after preemption. This is only used on module
 decompression.
 
 This all has sit on linux-next for a while except the kmap stuff which has
 been there for 3 weeks.

 - Some build-system performance improvements.

7d9d077c78 RCU pull request for v5.20 (or whatever)
This pull request contains the following branches:
 
 doc.2022.06.21a: Documentation updates.
 
 fixes.2022.07.19a: Miscellaneous fixes.
 
 nocb.2022.07.19a: Callback-offload updates, perhaps most notably a new
 	RCU_NOCB_CPU_DEFAULT_ALL Kconfig option that causes all CPUs to
 	be offloaded at boot time, regardless of kernel boot parameters.
 	This is useful to battery-powered systems such as ChromeOS
 	and Android.  In addition, a new RCU_NOCB_CPU_CB_BOOST kernel
 	boot parameter prevents offloaded callbacks from interfering
 	with real-time workloads and with energy-efficiency mechanisms.
 
 poll.2022.07.21a: Polled grace-period updates, perhaps most notably
 	making these APIs account for both normal and expedited grace
 	periods.
 
 rcu-tasks.2022.06.21a: Tasks RCU updates, perhaps most notably reducing
 	the CPU overhead of RCU tasks trace grace periods by more than
 	a factor of two on a system with 15,000 tasks.	The reduction
 	is expected to increase with the number of tasks, so it seems
 	reasonable to hypothesize that a system with 150,000 tasks might
 	see a 20-fold reduction in CPU overhead.
 
 torture.2022.06.21a: Torture-test updates.
 
 ctxt.2022.07.05a: Updates that merge RCU's dyntick-idle tracking into
 	context tracking, thus reducing the overhead of transitioning to
 	kernel mode from either idle or nohz_full userspace execution
 	for kernels that track context independently of RCU.  This is
 	expected to be helpful primarily for kernels built with
 	CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL=y.

a6036a41bf kbuild: drop support for CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_PERFORMANCE_O3
The difference in most compilers between `-O3` and `-O2` is mostly down
to whether loops with statically determinable trip counts are fully
unrolled vs unrolled to a multiple of SIMD width.

This patch is effectively a revert of
commit 15f5db60a1 ("kbuild,arc: add
CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_PERFORMANCE_O3 for ARC") without re-adding
ARCH_CFLAGS

Ever since
commit cfdbc2e16e ("ARC: Build system: Makefiles, Kconfig, Linker
script")
ARC has been built with -O3, though the reason for doing so was not
specified in inline comments or the commit message. This commit does not
re-add -O3 to arch/arc/Makefile.

Folks looking to experiment with `-O3` (or any compiler flag for that
matter) may pass them along to the command line invocation of make:

$ make KCFLAGS=-O3

Code that looks to re-add an explicit Kconfig option for `-O3` should
provide:
1. A rigorous and reproducible performance profile of a reasonable
   userspace workload that demonstrates a hot loop in the kernel that
   would benefit from `-O3` over `-O2`.
2. Disassembly of said loop body before and after.
3. Provides stats on terms of increase in file size.

6a010a49b6 cgroup: Make !percpu threadgroup_rwsem operations optional
3942a9bd7b ("locking, rcu, cgroup: Avoid synchronize_sched() in
__cgroup_procs_write()") disabled percpu operations on threadgroup_rwsem
because the impiled synchronize_rcu() on write locking was pushing up the
latencies too much for android which constantly moves processes between
cgroups.

This makes the hotter paths - fork and exit - slower as they're always
forced into the slow path. There is no reason to force this on everyone
especially given that more common static usage pattern can now completely
avoid write-locking the rwsem. Write-locking is elided when turning on and
off controllers on empty sub-trees and CLONE_INTO_CGROUP enables seeding a
cgroup without grabbing the rwsem.

Restore the default percpu operations and introduce the mount option
"favordynmods" and config option CGROUP_FAVOR_DYNMODS for users who need
lower latencies for the dynamic operations.

ec8f7f4821 crypto: lib - make the sha1 library optional
Since the Linux RNG no longer uses sha1_transform(), the SHA-1 library
is no longer needed unconditionally.  Make it possible to build the
Linux kernel without the SHA-1 library by putting it behind a kconfig
option, and selecting this new option from the kconfig options that gate
the remaining users: CRYPTO_SHA1 for crypto/sha1_generic.c, BPF for
kernel/bpf/core.c, and IPV6 for net/ipv6/addrconf.c.

Unfortunately, since BPF is selected by NET, for now this can only make
a difference for kernels built without networking support.

73b4fc92f9 module: Move module's Kconfig items in kernel/module/
In init/Kconfig, the part dedicated to modules is quite large.

Move it into a dedicated Kconfig in kernel/module/

MODULES_TREE_LOOKUP was outside of the 'if MODULES', but as it is
only used when MODULES are set, move it in with everything else to
avoid confusion.

MODULE_SIG_FORMAT is left in init/Kconfig because this configuration
item is not used in kernel/modules/ but in kernel/ and can be
selected independently from CONFIG_MODULES. It is for instance
selected from security/integrity/ima/Kconfig.
