0a23fb262d Major microcode loader restructuring, cleanup and improvements by Thomas
Gleixner:
 
 - Restructure the code needed for it and add a temporary initrd mapping
   on 32-bit so that the loader can access the microcode blobs. This in
   itself is a preparation for the next major improvement:
 
 - Do not load microcode on 32-bit before paging has been enabled.
   Handling this has caused an endless stream of headaches, issues, ugly
   code and unnecessary hacks in the past. And there really wasn't any
   sensible reason to do that in the first place. So switch the 32-bit
   loading to happen after paging has been enabled and turn the loader
   code "real purrty" again
 
 - Drop mixed microcode steppings loading on Intel - there, a single patch
   loaded on the whole system is sufficient
 
 - Rework late loading to track which CPUs have updated microcode
   successfully and which haven't, act accordingly
 
 - Move late microcode loading on Intel in NMI context in order to
   guarantee concurrent loading on all threads
 
 - Make the late loading CPU-hotplug-safe and have the offlined threads
   be woken up for the purpose of the update
 
 - Add support for a minimum revision which determines whether late
   microcode loading is safe on a machine and the microcode does not
   change software visible features which the machine cannot use anyway
   since feature detection has happened already. Roughly, the minimum
   revision is the smallest revision number which must be loaded
   currently on the system so that late updates can be allowed
 
 - Other nice leanups, fixess, etc all over the place

ecae0bd517 Many singleton patches against the MM code. The patch series which are
included in this merge do the following:
 
 - Kemeng Shi has contributed some compation maintenance work in the
   series "Fixes and cleanups to compaction".
 
 - Joel Fernandes has a patchset ("Optimize mremap during mutual
   alignment within PMD") which fixes an obscure issue with mremap()'s
   pagetable handling during a subsequent exec(), based upon an
   implementation which Linus suggested.
 
 - More DAMON/DAMOS maintenance and feature work from SeongJae Park i the
   following patch series:
 
 	mm/damon: misc fixups for documents, comments and its tracepoint
 	mm/damon: add a tracepoint for damos apply target regions
 	mm/damon: provide pseudo-moving sum based access rate
 	mm/damon: implement DAMOS apply intervals
 	mm/damon/core-test: Fix memory leaks in core-test
 	mm/damon/sysfs-schemes: Do DAMOS tried regions update for only one apply interval
 
 - In the series "Do not try to access unaccepted memory" Adrian Hunter
   provides some fixups for the recently-added "unaccepted memory' feature.
   To increase the feature's checking coverage.  "Plug a few gaps where
   RAM is exposed without checking if it is unaccepted memory".
 
 - In the series "cleanups for lockless slab shrink" Qi Zheng has done
   some maintenance work which is preparation for the lockless slab
   shrinking code.
 
 - Qi Zheng has redone the earlier (and reverted) attempt to make slab
   shrinking lockless in the series "use refcount+RCU method to implement
   lockless slab shrink".
 
 - David Hildenbrand contributes some maintenance work for the rmap code
   in the series "Anon rmap cleanups".
 
 - Kefeng Wang does more folio conversions and some maintenance work in
   the migration code.  Series "mm: migrate: more folio conversion and
   unification".
 
 - Matthew Wilcox has fixed an issue in the buffer_head code which was
   causing long stalls under some heavy memory/IO loads.  Some cleanups
   were added on the way.  Series "Add and use bdev_getblk()".
 
 - In the series "Use nth_page() in place of direct struct page
   manipulation" Zi Yan has fixed a potential issue with the direct
   manipulation of hugetlb page frames.
 
 - In the series "mm: hugetlb: Skip initialization of gigantic tail
   struct pages if freed by HVO" has improved our handling of gigantic
   pages in the hugetlb vmmemmep optimizaton code.  This provides
   significant boot time improvements when significant amounts of gigantic
   pages are in use.
 
 - Matthew Wilcox has sent the series "Small hugetlb cleanups" - code
   rationalization and folio conversions in the hugetlb code.
 
 - Yin Fengwei has improved mlock()'s handling of large folios in the
   series "support large folio for mlock"
 
 - In the series "Expose swapcache stat for memcg v1" Liu Shixin has
   added statistics for memcg v1 users which are available (and useful)
   under memcg v2.
 
 - Florent Revest has enhanced the MDWE (Memory-Deny-Write-Executable)
   prctl so that userspace may direct the kernel to not automatically
   propagate the denial to child processes.  The series is named "MDWE
   without inheritance".
 
 - Kefeng Wang has provided the series "mm: convert numa balancing
   functions to use a folio" which does what it says.
 
 - In the series "mm/ksm: add fork-exec support for prctl" Stefan Roesch
   makes is possible for a process to propagate KSM treatment across
   exec().
 
 - Huang Ying has enhanced memory tiering's calculation of memory
   distances.  This is used to permit the dax/kmem driver to use "high
   bandwidth memory" in addition to Optane Data Center Persistent Memory
   Modules (DCPMM).  The series is named "memory tiering: calculate
   abstract distance based on ACPI HMAT"
 
 - In the series "Smart scanning mode for KSM" Stefan Roesch has
   optimized KSM by teaching it to retain and use some historical
   information from previous scans.
 
 - Yosry Ahmed has fixed some inconsistencies in memcg statistics in the
   series "mm: memcg: fix tracking of pending stats updates values".
 
 - In the series "Implement IOCTL to get and optionally clear info about
   PTEs" Peter Xu has added an ioctl to /proc/<pid>/pagemap which permits
   us to atomically read-then-clear page softdirty state.  This is mainly
   used by CRIU.
 
 - Hugh Dickins contributed the series "shmem,tmpfs: general maintenance"
   - a bunch of relatively minor maintenance tweaks to this code.
 
 - Matthew Wilcox has increased the use of the VMA lock over file-backed
   page faults in the series "Handle more faults under the VMA lock".  Some
   rationalizations of the fault path became possible as a result.
 
 - In the series "mm/rmap: convert page_move_anon_rmap() to
   folio_move_anon_rmap()" David Hildenbrand has implemented some cleanups
   and folio conversions.
 
 - In the series "various improvements to the GUP interface" Lorenzo
   Stoakes has simplified and improved the GUP interface with an eye to
   providing groundwork for future improvements.
 
 - Andrey Konovalov has sent along the series "kasan: assorted fixes and
   improvements" which does those things.
 
 - Some page allocator maintenance work from Kemeng Shi in the series
   "Two minor cleanups to break_down_buddy_pages".

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
 "Many singleton patches against the MM code. The patch series which are
  included in this merge do the following:

   - Kemeng Shi has contributed some compation maintenance work in the
     series 'Fixes and cleanups to compaction'

   - Joel Fernandes has a patchset ('Optimize mremap during mutual
     alignment within PMD') which fixes an obscure issue with mremap()'s
     pagetable handling during a subsequent exec(), based upon an
     implementation which Linus suggested

   - More DAMON/DAMOS maintenance and feature work from SeongJae Park i
     the following patch series:

	mm/damon: misc fixups for documents, comments and its tracepoint
	mm/damon: add a tracepoint for damos apply target regions
	mm/damon: provide pseudo-moving sum based access rate
	mm/damon: implement DAMOS apply intervals
	mm/damon/core-test: Fix memory leaks in core-test
	mm/damon/sysfs-schemes: Do DAMOS tried regions update for only one apply interval

   - In the series 'Do not try to access unaccepted memory' Adrian
     Hunter provides some fixups for the recently-added 'unaccepted
     memory' feature. To increase the feature's checking coverage. 'Plug
     a few gaps where RAM is exposed without checking if it is
     unaccepted memory'

   - In the series 'cleanups for lockless slab shrink' Qi Zheng has done
     some maintenance work which is preparation for the lockless slab
     shrinking code

   - Qi Zheng has redone the earlier (and reverted) attempt to make slab
     shrinking lockless in the series 'use refcount+RCU method to
     implement lockless slab shrink'

   - David Hildenbrand contributes some maintenance work for the rmap
     code in the series 'Anon rmap cleanups'

   - Kefeng Wang does more folio conversions and some maintenance work
     in the migration code. Series 'mm: migrate: more folio conversion
     and unification'

     manipulation' Zi Yan has fixed a potential issue with the direct
     manipulation of hugetlb page frames

   - In the series 'mm: hugetlb: Skip initialization of gigantic tail
     struct pages if freed by HVO' has improved our handling of gigantic
     pages in the hugetlb vmmemmep optimizaton code. This provides

Merge tag 'sh-for-v6.7-tag1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/glaubitz/sh-linux

Pull sh updates from John Paul Adrian Glaubitz:
 "While the previously announced patch series for converting arch/sh to
  device trees is not yet ready for inclusion to mainline and therefore
  didn't make it for this pull request, there are still a small number
  changes for v6.7 which include one platform (board plus CPU and driver
  code) removal plus two fixes.

  The removal sent in by Arnd Bergmann concerns the microdev board which
  was an early SuperH prototype board that was never used in production.
  With the board removed, we were able to drop the now unused code for
  the SH4-202 CPU and well as the driver code for the superhyway bus and
  a custom implementation for ioport_map() and ioport_unmap() which will
  allow us to simplify ioport handling in the future.

  Another patch set by Geert Uytterhoeven revives SuperH BIOS
  earlyprintk support which got accidentally disabled in
  e76fe57447 ("sh: Remove old early serial console code V2"), the
  second patch in the series updates the documentation.

  Finally, a patch by Masami Hiramatsu fixes a regression reported by
  the kernel test robot which uncovered that arch/sh is not implementing
  arch_cmpxchg_local() and therefore needs use __generic_cmpxchg_local()
  instead"

56ec8e4cd8 arm64 updates for 6.7:
* Major refactoring of the CPU capability detection logic resulting in
   the removal of the cpus_have_const_cap() function and migrating the
   code to "alternative" branches where possible
 
 * Backtrace/kgdb: use IPIs and pseudo-NMI
 
 * Perf and PMU:
 
   - Add support for Ampere SoC PMUs
 
   - Multi-DTC improvements for larger CMN configurations with multiple
     Debug & Trace Controllers
 
   - Rework the Arm CoreSight PMU driver to allow separate registration of
     vendor backend modules
 
   - Fixes: add missing MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE to the amlogic perf
     driver; use device_get_match_data() in the xgene driver; fix NULL
     pointer dereference in the hisi driver caused by calling
     cpuhp_state_remove_instance(); use-after-free in the hisi driver
 
 * HWCAP updates:
 
   - FEAT_SVE_B16B16 (BFloat16)
 
   - FEAT_LRCPC3 (release consistency model)
 
   - FEAT_LSE128 (128-bit atomic instructions)
 
 * SVE: remove a couple of pseudo registers from the cpufeature code.
   There is logic in place already to detect mismatched SVE features
 
 * Miscellaneous:
 
   - Reduce the default swiotlb size (currently 64MB) if no ZONE_DMA
     bouncing is needed. The buffer is still required for small kmalloc()
     buffers
 
   - Fix module PLT counting with !RANDOMIZE_BASE
 
   - Restrict CPU_BIG_ENDIAN to LLVM IAS 15.x or newer move
     synchronisation code out of the set_ptes() loop

89ed67ef12 Networking changes for 6.7.
Core & protocols
 ----------------
 
  - Support usec resolution of TCP timestamps, enabled selectively by
    a route attribute.
 
  - Defer regular TCP ACK while processing socket backlog, try to send
    a cumulative ACK at the end. Increase single TCP flow performance
    on a 200Gbit NIC by 20% (100Gbit -> 120Gbit).
 
  - The Fair Queuing (FQ) packet scheduler:
    - add built-in 3 band prio / WRR scheduling
    - support bypass if the qdisc is mostly idle (5% speed up for TCP RR)
    - improve inactive flow reporting
    - optimize the layout of structures for better cache locality
 
  - Support TCP Authentication Option (RFC 5925, TCP-AO), a more modern
    replacement for the old MD5 option.
 
  - Add more retransmission timeout (RTO) related statistics to TCP_INFO.
 
  - Support sending fragmented skbs over vsock sockets.
 
  - Make sure we send SIGPIPE for vsock sockets if socket was shutdown().
 
  - Add sysctl for ignoring lower limit on lifetime in Router
    Advertisement PIO, based on an in-progress IETF draft.
 
  - Add sysctl to control activation of TCP ping-pong mode.
 
  - Add sysctl to make connection timeout in MPTCP configurable.
 
  - Support rcvlowat and notsent_lowat on MPTCP sockets, to help apps
    limit the number of wakeups.
 
  - Support netlink GET for MDB (multicast forwarding), allowing user
    space to request a single MDB entry instead of dumping the entire
    table.
 
  - Support selective FDB flushing in the VXLAN tunnel driver.
 
  - Allow limiting learned FDB entries in bridges, prevent OOM attacks.
 
  - Allow controlling via configfs netconsole targets which were created
    via the kernel cmdline at boot, rather than via configfs at runtime.
 
  - Support multiple PTP timestamp event queue readers with different
    filters.
 
  - MCTP over I3C.
 
 BPF
 ---
 
  - Add new veth-like netdevice where BPF program defines the logic
    of the xmit routine. It can operate in L3 and L2 mode.
 
  - Support exceptions - allow asserting conditions which should
    never be true but are hard for the verifier to infer.
    With some extra flexibility around handling of the exit / failure.
    https://lwn.net/Articles/938435/
 
  - Add support for local per-cpu kptr, allow allocating and storing
    per-cpu objects in maps. Access to those objects operates on
    the value for the current CPU. This allows to deprecate local
    one-off implementations of per-CPU storage like
    BPF_MAP_TYPE_PERCPU_CGROUP_STORAGE maps.
 
  - Extend cgroup BPF sockaddr hooks for UNIX sockets. The use case is
    for systemd to re-implement the LogNamespace feature which allows
    running multiple instances of systemd-journald to process the logs
    of different services.
 
  - Enable open-coded task_vma iteration, after maple tree conversion
    made it hard to directly walk VMAs in tracing programs.
 
  - Add open-coded task, css_task and css iterator support.
    One of the use cases is customizable OOM victim selection via BPF.
 
  - Allow source address selection with bpf_*_fib_lookup().
 
  - Add ability to pin BPF timer to the current CPU.
 
  - Prevent creation of infinite loops by combining tail calls and
    fentry/fexit programs.
 
  - Add missed stats for kprobes to retrieve the number of missed kprobe
    executions and subsequent executions of BPF programs.
 
  - Inherit system settings for CPU security mitigations.
 
  - Add BPF v4 CPU instruction support for arm32 and s390x.
 
 Changes to common code
 ----------------------
 
  - overflow: add DEFINE_FLEX() for on-stack definition of structs
    with flexible array members.
 
  - Process doc update with more guidance for reviewers.
 
 Driver API
 ----------
 
  - Simplify locking in WiFi (cfg80211 and mac80211 layers), use wiphy
    mutex in most places and remove a lot of smaller locks.
 
  - Create a common DPLL configuration API. Allow configuring
    and querying state of PLL circuits used for clock syntonization,
    in network time distribution.
 
  - Unify fragmented and full page allocation APIs in page pool code.
    Let drivers be ignorant of PAGE_SIZE.
 
  - Rework PHY state machine to avoid races with calls to phy_stop().
 
  - Notify DSA drivers of MAC address changes on user ports, improve
    correctness of offloads which depend on matching port MAC addresses.
 
  - Allow antenna control on injected WiFi frames.
 
  - Reduce the number of variants of napi_schedule().
 
  - Simplify error handling when composing devlink health messages.
 
 Misc
 ----
 
  - A lot of KCSAN data race "fixes", from Eric.
 
  - A lot of __counted_by() annotations, from Kees.
 
  - A lot of strncpy -> strscpy and printf format fixes.
 
  - Replace master/slave terminology with conduit/user in DSA drivers.
 
  - Handful of KUnit tests for netdev and WiFi core.

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
 "Core & protocols:

   - Support usec resolution of TCP timestamps, enabled selectively by a
     route attribute.

   - Defer regular TCP ACK while processing socket backlog, try to send
     a cumulative ACK at the end. Increase single TCP flow performance
     on a 200Gbit NIC by 20% (100Gbit -> 120Gbit).

   - The Fair Queuing (FQ) packet scheduler:
       - add built-in 3 band prio / WRR scheduling
       - support bypass if the qdisc is mostly idle (5% speed up for TCP RR)
       - improve inactive flow reporting
       - optimize the layout of structures for better cache locality

   - Support TCP Authentication Option (RFC 5925, TCP-AO), a more modern
     replacement for the old MD5 option.

   - Add more retransmission timeout (RTO) related statistics to
     TCP_INFO.

   - Support sending fragmented skbs over vsock sockets.

   - Make sure we send SIGPIPE for vsock sockets if socket was
     shutdown().

   - Add sysctl for ignoring lower limit on lifetime in Router
     Advertisement PIO, based on an in-progress IETF draft.

   - Add sysctl to control activation of TCP ping-pong mode.

   - Add sysctl to make connection timeout in MPTCP configurable.

   - Support rcvlowat and notsent_lowat on MPTCP sockets, to help apps
     limit the number of wakeups.

   - Support netlink GET for MDB (multicast forwarding), allowing user
     space to request a single MDB entry instead of dumping the entire
     table.

   - Support selective FDB flushing in the VXLAN tunnel driver.

   - Allow limiting learned FDB entries in bridges, prevent OOM attacks.

   - Allow controlling via configfs netconsole targets which were
     created via the kernel cmdline at boot, rather than via configfs at
     runtime.

   - Support multiple PTP timestamp event queue readers with different
     filters.

   - MCTP over I3C.

  BPF:

   - Add new veth-like netdevice where BPF program defines the logic of
     the xmit routine. It can operate in L3 and L2 mode.

   - Support exceptions - allow asserting conditions which should never
     be true but are hard for the verifier to infer. With some extra
     flexibility around handling of the exit / failure:

          https://lwn.net/Articles/938435/

   - Add support for local per-cpu kptr, allow allocating and storing
     per-cpu objects in maps. Access to those objects operates on the
     value for the current CPU.

     This allows to deprecate local one-off implementations of per-CPU
     storage like BPF_MAP_TYPE_PERCPU_CGROUP_STORAGE maps.

   - Extend cgroup BPF sockaddr hooks for UNIX sockets. The use case is
     for systemd to re-implement the LogNamespace feature which allows
     running multiple instances of systemd-journald to process the logs
     of different services.

   - Enable open-coded task_vma iteration, after maple tree conversion
     made it hard to directly walk VMAs in tracing programs.

   - Add open-coded task, css_task and css iterator support. One of the
     use cases is customizable OOM victim selection via BPF.

   - Allow source address selection with bpf_*_fib_lookup().

   - Add ability to pin BPF timer to the current CPU.

   - Prevent creation of infinite loops by combining tail calls and
     fentry/fexit programs.

   - Add missed stats for kprobes to retrieve the number of missed
     kprobe executions and subsequent executions of BPF programs.

   - Inherit system settings for CPU security mitigations.

   - Add BPF v4 CPU instruction support for arm32 and s390x.

  Changes to common code:

   - overflow: add DEFINE_FLEX() for on-stack definition of structs with
     flexible array members.

   - Process doc update with more guidance for reviewers.

  Driver API:

   - Simplify locking in WiFi (cfg80211 and mac80211 layers), use wiphy
     mutex in most places and remove a lot of smaller locks.

   - Create a common DPLL configuration API. Allow configuring and
     querying state of PLL circuits used for clock syntonization, in
     network time distribution.

   - Unify fragmented and full page allocation APIs in page pool code.
     Let drivers be ignorant of PAGE_SIZE.

   - Rework PHY state machine to avoid races with calls to phy_stop().

   - Notify DSA drivers of MAC address changes on user ports, improve
     correctness of offloads which depend on matching port MAC
     addresses.

   - Allow antenna control on injected WiFi frames.

   - Reduce the number of variants of napi_schedule().

   - Simplify error handling when composing devlink health messages.

  Misc:

   - A lot of KCSAN data race "fixes", from Eric.

   - A lot of __counted_by() annotations, from Kees.

   - A lot of strncpy -> strscpy and printf format fixes.

   - Replace master/slave terminology with conduit/user in DSA drivers.

   - Handful of KUnit tests for netdev and WiFi core.

  Removed:

   - AppleTalk COPS.

   - AppleTalk ipddp.

   - TI AR7 CPMAC Ethernet driver.

 rcu/torture: RCU torture, locktorture and generic torture infrastructure
 	updates that include various fixes, cleanups and consolidations.
 	Among the user visible things, ftrace dumps can now be found into
 	their own file, and module parameters get better documented and
 	reported on dumps.
 
 rcu/fixes: Generic and misc fixes all over the place. Some highlights:
 
 	* Hotplug handling has seen some light cleanups and comments.
 
 	* An RCU barrier can now be triggered through sysfs to serialize
 	memory stress testing and avoid OOM.
 
 	* Object information is now dumped in case of invalid callback
 	invocation.
 
 	* Also various SRCU issues, too hard to trigger to deserve urgent
 	pull requests, have been fixed.
 
 rcu/docs: RCU documentation updates
 
 rcu/refscale: RCU reference scalability test minor fixes and doc
 	improvements.
 
 rcu/tasks: RCU tasks minor fixes
 
 rcu/stall: Stall detection updates. Introduce RCU CPU Stall notifiers
 	that allows a subsystem to provide informations to help debugging.
 	Also cure some false positive stalls.

9407bda845 x86/microcode: Prepare for minimal revision check
Applying microcode late can be fatal for the running kernel when the
update changes functionality which is in use already in a non-compatible
way, e.g. by removing a CPUID bit.

There is no way for admins which do not have access to the vendors deep
technical support to decide whether late loading of such a microcode is
safe or not.

Intel has added a new field to the microcode header which tells the
minimal microcode revision which is required to be active in the CPU in
order to be safe.

Provide infrastructure for handling this in the core code and a command
line switch which allows to enforce it.

If the update is considered safe the kernel is not tainted and the annoying
warning message not emitted. If it's enforced and the currently loaded
microcode revision is not safe for late loading then the load is aborted.

be vulnerable to SRSO attacks due to IBPB not flushing branch type

Report the safe-ret + !microcode case as vulnerable.

Also report the microcode-only case as vulnerable as it leaves the

to update the regions for each scheme for only its apply interval.

8cba9576df hugetlb: memcg: account hugetlb-backed memory in memory controller
Currently, hugetlb memory usage is not acounted for in the memory
controller, which could lead to memory overprotection for cgroups with
hugetlb-backed memory.  This has been observed in our production system.

For instance, here is one of our usecases: suppose there are two 32G
containers.  The machine is booted with hugetlb_cma=6G, and each container
may or may not use up to 3 gigantic page, depending on the workload within
it.  The rest is anon, cache, slab, etc.  We can set the hugetlb cgroup
limit of each cgroup to 3G to enforce hugetlb fairness.  But it is very
difficult to configure memory.max to keep overall consumption, including
anon, cache, slab etc.  fair.

What we have had to resort to is to constantly poll hugetlb usage and
readjust memory.max.  Similar procedure is done to other memory limits
(memory.low for e.g).  However, this is rather cumbersome and buggy. 
Furthermore, when there is a delay in memory limits correction, (for e.g
when hugetlb usage changes within consecutive runs of the userspace
agent), the system could be in an over/underprotected state.

This patch rectifies this issue by charging the memcg when the hugetlb
folio is utilized, and uncharging when the folio is freed (analogous to
the hugetlb controller).  Note that we do not charge when the folio is
allocated to the hugetlb pool, because at this point it is not owned by
any memcg.

Some caveats to consider:
  * This feature is only available on cgroup v2.
  * There is no hugetlb pool management involved in the memory
    controller. As stated above, hugetlb folios are only charged towards
    the memory controller when it is used. Host overcommit management
    has to consider it when configuring hard limits.
  * Failure to charge towards the memcg results in SIGBUS. This could
    happen even if the hugetlb pool still has pages (but the cgroup
    limit is hit and reclaim attempt fails).
  * When this feature is enabled, hugetlb pages contribute to memory
    reclaim protection. low, min limits tuning must take into account
    hugetlb memory.
  * Hugetlb pages utilized while this option is not selected will not
    be tracked by the memory controller (even if cgroup v2 is remounted
    later on).

d61ea1cb00 userfaultfd: UFFD_FEATURE_WP_ASYNC
Patch series "Implement IOCTL to get and optionally clear info about
PTEs", v33.

*Motivation*
The real motivation for adding PAGEMAP_SCAN IOCTL is to emulate Windows
GetWriteWatch() and ResetWriteWatch() syscalls [1].  The GetWriteWatch()
retrieves the addresses of the pages that are written to in a region of
virtual memory.

This syscall is used in Windows applications and games etc.  This syscall
is being emulated in pretty slow manner in userspace.  Our purpose is to
enhance the kernel such that we translate it efficiently in a better way. 
Currently some out of tree hack patches are being used to efficiently
emulate it in some kernels.  We intend to replace those with these
patches.  So the whole gaming on Linux can effectively get benefit from
this.  It means there would be tons of users of this code.

CRIU use case [2] was mentioned by Andrei and Danylo:
> Use cases for migrating sparse VMAs are binaries sanitized with ASAN,
> MSAN or TSAN [3]. All of these sanitizers produce sparse mappings of
> shadow memory [4]. Being able to migrate such binaries allows to highly
> reduce the amount of work needed to identify and fix post-migration
> crashes, which happen constantly.

Andrei defines the following uses of this code:
* it is more granular and allows us to track changed pages more
  effectively. The current interface can clear dirty bits for the entire
  process only. In addition, reading info about pages is a separate
  operation. It means we must freeze the process to read information
  about all its pages, reset dirty bits, only then we can start dumping
  pages. The information about pages becomes more and more outdated,
  while we are processing pages. The new interface solves both these
  downsides. First, it allows us to read pte bits and clear the
  soft-dirty bit atomically. It means that CRIU will not need to freeze
  processes to pre-dump their memory. Second, it clears soft-dirty bits
  for a specified region of memory. It means CRIU will have actual info
  about pages to the moment of dumping them.
* The new interface has to be much faster because basic page filtering
  is happening in the kernel. With the old interface, we have to read
  pagemap for each page.

*Implementation Evolution (Short Summary)*
From the definition of GetWriteWatch(), we feel like kernel's soft-dirty
feature can be used under the hood with some additions like:
* reset soft-dirty flag for only a specific region of memory instead of
clearing the flag for the entire process
* get and clear soft-dirty flag for a specific region atomically

So we decided to use ioctl on pagemap file to read or/and reset soft-dirty
flag. But using soft-dirty flag, sometimes we get extra pages which weren't
even written. They had become soft-dirty because of VMA merging and
VM_SOFTDIRTY flag. This breaks the definition of GetWriteWatch(). We were
able to by-pass this short coming by ignoring VM_SOFTDIRTY until David
reported that mprotect etc messes up the soft-dirty flag while ignoring
VM_SOFTDIRTY [5]. This wasn't happening until [6] got introduced. We
discussed if we can revert these patches. But we could not reach to any
conclusion. So at this point, I made couple of tries to solve this whole
VM_SOFTDIRTY issue by correcting the soft-dirty implementation:
* [7] Correct the bug fixed wrongly back in 2014. It had potential to cause
regression. We left it behind.
* [8] Keep a list of soft-dirty part of a VMA across splits and merges. I
got the reply don't increase the size of the VMA by 8 bytes.

At this point, we left soft-dirty considering it is too much delicate and
userfaultfd [9] seemed like the only way forward. From there onward, we
have been basing soft-dirty emulation on userfaultfd wp feature where
kernel resolves the faults itself when WP_ASYNC feature is used. It was
straight forward to add WP_ASYNC feature in userfautlfd. Now we get only
those pages dirty or written-to which are really written in reality. (PS
There is another WP_UNPOPULATED userfautfd feature is required which is
needed to avoid pre-faulting memory before write-protecting [9].)

All the different masks were added on the request of CRIU devs to create
interface more generic and better.

This patch (of 6):

Add a new userfaultfd-wp feature UFFD_FEATURE_WP_ASYNC, that allows
userfaultfd wr-protect faults to be resolved by the kernel directly.

It can be used like a high accuracy version of soft-dirty, without vma
modifications during tracking, and also with ranged support by default
rather than for a whole mm when reset the protections due to existence of
ioctl(UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT).

Several goals of such a dirty tracking interface:

1. All types of memory should be supported and tracable. This is nature
   for soft-dirty but should mention when the context is userfaultfd,
   because it used to only support anon/shmem/hugetlb. The problem is for
   a dirty tracking purpose these three types may not be enough, and it's
   legal to track anything e.g. any page cache writes from mmap.

2. Protections can be applied to partial of a memory range, without vma
   split/merge fuss.  The hope is that the tracking itself should not
   affect any vma layout change.  It also helps when reset happens because
   the reset will not need mmap write lock which can block the tracee.

3. Accuracy needs to be maintained.  This means we need pte markers to work
   on any type of VMA.

One could question that, the whole concept of async dirty tracking is not
really close to fundamentally what userfaultfd used to be: it's not "a
fault to be serviced by userspace" anymore. However, using userfaultfd-wp
here as a framework is convenient for us in at least:

1. VM_UFFD_WP vma flag, which has a very good name to suite something like
   this, so we don't need VM_YET_ANOTHER_SOFT_DIRTY. Just use a new
   feature bit to identify from a sync version of uffd-wp registration.

2. PTE markers logic can be leveraged across the whole kernel to maintain
   the uffd-wp bit as long as an arch supports, this also applies to this
   case where uffd-wp bit will be a hint to dirty information and it will
   not go lost easily (e.g. when some page cache ptes got zapped).

3. Reuse ioctl(UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT) interface for either starting or
   resetting a range of memory, while there's no counterpart in the old
   soft-dirty world, hence if this is wanted in a new design we'll need a
   new interface otherwise.

We can somehow understand that commonality because uffd-wp was
fundamentally a similar idea of write-protecting pages just like
soft-dirty.

This implementation allows WP_ASYNC to imply WP_UNPOPULATED, because so
far WP_ASYNC seems to not usable if without WP_UNPOPULATE.  This also
gives us chance to modify impl of WP_ASYNC just in case it could be not
depending on WP_UNPOPULATED anymore in the future kernels.  It's also fine
to imply that because both features will rely on PTE_MARKER_UFFD_WP config
option, so they'll show up together (or both missing) in an UFFDIO_API
probe.

vma_can_userfault() now allows any VMA if the userfaultfd registration is
only about async uffd-wp.  So we can track dirty for all kinds of memory
including generic file systems (like XFS, EXT4 or BTRFS).

One trick worth mention in do_wp_page() is that we need to manually update
vmf->orig_pte here because it can be used later with a pte_same() check -
this path always has FAULT_FLAG_ORIG_PTE_VALID set in the flags.

The major defect of this approach of dirty tracking is we need to populate
the pgtables when tracking starts.  Soft-dirty doesn't do it like that. 
It's unwanted in the case where the range of memory to track is huge and
unpopulated (e.g., tracking updates on a 10G file with mmap() on top,
without having any page cache installed yet).  One way to improve this is
to allow pte markers exist for larger than PTE level for PMD+.  That will
not change the interface if to implemented, so we can leave that for
later.

94b3f0b5af smp,csd: Throw an error if a CSD lock is stuck for too long
The CSD lock seems to get stuck in 2 "modes". When it gets stuck
temporarily, it usually gets released in a few seconds, and sometimes
up to one or two minutes.

If the CSD lock stays stuck for more than several minutes, it never
seems to get unstuck, and gradually more and more things in the system
end up also getting stuck.

In the latter case, we should just give up, so the system can dump out
a little more information about what went wrong, and, with panic_on_oops
and a kdump kernel loaded, dump a whole bunch more information about what
might have gone wrong.  In addition, there is an smp.panic_on_ipistall
kernel boot parameter that by default retains the old behavior, but when
set enables the panic after the CSD lock has been stuck for more than
the specified number of milliseconds, as in 300,000 for five minutes.

8f833c82cd sched/topology: Change behaviour of the 'sched_energy_aware' sysctl, based on the platform
The 'sched_energy_aware' sysctl is available for the admin to disable/enable
energy aware scheduling(EAS). EAS is enabled only if few conditions are
met by the platform. They are, asymmetric CPU capacity, no SMT,
schedutil CPUfreq governor, frequency invariant load tracking etc.
A platform may boot without EAS capability, but could gain such
capability at runtime. For example, changing/registering the cpufreq
governor to schedutil.

At present, though platform doesn't support EAS, this sysctl returns 1
and it ends up calling build_perf_domains on write to 1 and
NOP when writing to 0. That is confusing and un-necessary.

Desired behavior would be to have this sysctl to enable/disable the EAS
on supported platform. On non-supported platform write to the sysctl
would return not supported error and read of the sysctl would return
empty. So sched_energy_aware returns empty - EAS is not possible at this moment
This will include EAS capable platforms which have at least one EAS
condition false during startup, e.g. not using the schedutil cpufreq governor
sched_energy_aware returns 0 - EAS is supported but disabled by admin.
sched_energy_aware returns 1 - EAS is supported and enabled.

User can find out the reason why EAS is not possible by checking
info messages. sched_is_eas_possible returns true if the platform
can do EAS at this moment.

aa1567a7e6 intel_idle: Add ibrs_off module parameter to force-disable IBRS
Commit bf5835bcdb ("intel_idle: Disable IBRS during long idle")
disables IBRS when the cstate is 6 or lower. However, there are
some use cases where a customer may want to use max_cstate=1 to
lower latency. Such use cases will suffer from the performance
degradation caused by the enabling of IBRS in the sibling idle thread.
Add a "ibrs_off" module parameter to force disable IBRS and the
CPUIDLE_FLAG_IRQ_ENABLE flag if set.

In the case of a Skylake server with max_cstate=1, this new ibrs_off
option will likely increase the IRQ response latency as IRQ will now
be disabled.

When running SPECjbb2015 with cstates set to C1 on a Skylake system.

First test when the kernel is booted with: "intel_idle.ibrs_off":

  max-jOPS = 117828, critical-jOPS = 66047

Then retest when the kernel is booted without the "intel_idle.ibrs_off"
added:

  max-jOPS = 116408, critical-jOPS = 58958

That means booting with "intel_idle.ibrs_off" improves performance by:

  max-jOPS:      +1.2%, which could be considered noise range.
  critical-jOPS: +12%,  which is definitely a solid improvement.

The admin-guide/pm/intel_idle.rst file is updated to add a description
about the new "ibrs_off" module parameter.

9b81d3a5be cgroup: add cgroup_favordynmods= command-line option
We have a need of using favordynmods with cgroup v1, which doesn't support
changing mount flags during remount. Enabling CONFIG_CGROUP_FAVOR_DYNMODS at
build-time is not an option because we want to be able to selectively
enable it for certain systems.

This commit addresses this by introducing the cgroup_favordynmods=
command-line option. This option works for both cgroup v1 and v2 and also
allows for disabling favorynmods when the kernel built with
CONFIG_CGROUP_FAVOR_DYNMODS=y.

Also, note that when cgroup_favordynmods=true favordynmods is never
disabled in cgroup_destroy_root().
