b1f01e2bae sysctl: Add size argument to init_header
In this commit, we add a table_size argument to the init_header function
in order to initialize the ctl_table_size variable in ctl_table_header.
Even though the size is not yet used, it is now initialized within the
sysctl subsys. We need this commit for when we start adding the
table_size arguments to the sysctl functions (e.g. register_sysctl,
__register_sysctl_table and __register_sysctl_init).

Note that in __register_sysctl_table we temporarily use a calculated
size until we add the size argument to that function in subsequent
commits.

18d4b42e9d sysctl: Use ctl_table_header in list_for_each_table_entry
We replace the ctl_table with the ctl_table_header pointer in
list_for_each_table_entry which is the macro responsible for traversing
the ctl_table arrays. This is a preparation commit that will make it
easier to add the ctl_table array size (that will be added to
ctl_table_header in subsequent commits) to the already existing loop
logic based on empty ctl_table elements (so called sentinels).

cc9f7ee01e sysctl: Prefer ctl_table_header in proc_sysctl
This is a preparation commit that replaces ctl_table with
ctl_table_header as the pointer that is passed around in proc_sysctl.c.
This will become necessary in subsequent commits when the size of the
ctl_table array can no longer be calculated by searching for an empty
sentinel (last empty ctl_table element) but will be carried along inside
the ctl_table_header struct.

7b82e90411 asm-generic updates for 6.5
These are cleanups for architecture specific header files:
 
  - the comments in include/linux/syscalls.h have gone out of sync
    and are really pointless, so these get removed
 
  - The asm/bitsperlong.h header no longer needs to be architecture
    specific on modern compilers, so use a generic version for newer
    architectures that use new enough userspace compilers
 
  - A cleanup for virt_to_pfn/virt_to_bus to have proper type
    checking, forcing the use of pointers

6a8cbd9253 v6.5-rc1-sysctl-next
The changes queued up for v6.5-rc1 for sysctl are in line with
 prior efforts to stop usage of deprecated routines which incur
 recursion and also make it hard to remove the empty array element
 in each sysctl array declaration. The most difficult user to modify
 was parport which required a bit of re-thinking of how to declare shared
 sysctls there, Joel Granados has stepped up to the plate to do most of
 this work and eventual removal of register_sysctl_table(). That work
 ended up saving us about 1465 bytes according to bloat-o-meter. Since
 we gained a few bloat-o-meter karma points I moved two rather small
 sysctl arrays from kernel/sysctl.c leaving us only two more sysctl
 arrays to move left.
 
 Most changes have been tested on linux-next for about a month. The last
 straggler patches are a minor parport fix, changes to the sysctl
 kernel selftest so to verify correctness and prevent regressions for
 the future change he made to provide an alternative solution for the
 special sysctl mount point target which was using the now deprecated
 sysctl child element.
 
 This is all prep work to now finally be able to remove the empty
 array element in all sysctl declarations / registrations which is
 expected to save us a bit of bytes all over the kernel. That work
 will be tested early after v6.5-rc1 is out.

2c96136a3f - Add support for unaccepted memory as specified in the UEFI spec v2.9.
The gist of it all is that Intel TDX and AMD SEV-SNP confidential
   computing guests define the notion of accepting memory before using it
   and thus preventing a whole set of attacks against such guests like
   memory replay and the like.
 
   There are a couple of strategies of how memory should be accepted
   - the current implementation does an on-demand way of accepting.

Pull x86 confidential computing update from Borislav Petkov:

 - Add support for unaccepted memory as specified in the UEFI spec v2.9.

   The gist of it all is that Intel TDX and AMD SEV-SNP confidential
   computing guests define the notion of accepting memory before using
   it and thus preventing a whole set of attacks against such guests
   like memory replay and the like.

   There are a couple of strategies of how memory should be accepted -
   the current implementation does an on-demand way of accepting.

c33c794828 mm: ptep_get() conversion
Convert all instances of direct pte_t* dereferencing to instead use
ptep_get() helper.  This means that by default, the accesses change from a
C dereference to a READ_ONCE().  This is technically the correct thing to
do since where pgtables are modified by HW (for access/dirty) they are
volatile and therefore we should always ensure READ_ONCE() semantics.

But more importantly, by always using the helper, it can be overridden by
the architecture to fully encapsulate the contents of the pte.  Arch code
is deliberately not converted, as the arch code knows best.  It is
intended that arch code (arm64) will override the default with its own
implementation that can (e.g.) hide certain bits from the core code, or
determine young/dirty status by mixing in state from another source.

Conversion was done using Coccinelle:

----

// $ make coccicheck \
//          COCCI=ptepget.cocci \
//          SPFLAGS="--include-headers" \
//          MODE=patch

virtual patch

@ depends on patch @
pte_t *v;
@@

- *v
+ ptep_get(v)

----

Then reviewed and hand-edited to avoid multiple unnecessary calls to
ptep_get(), instead opting to store the result of a single call in a
variable, where it is correct to do so.  This aims to negate any cost of
READ_ONCE() and will benefit arch-overrides that may be more complex.

Included is a fix for an issue in an earlier version of this patch that
was pointed out by kernel test robot.  The issue arose because config
MMU=n elides definition of the ptep helper functions, including
ptep_get().  HUGETLB_PAGE=n configs still define a simple
huge_ptep_clear_flush() for linking purposes, which dereferences the ptep.
So when both configs are disabled, this caused a build error because
ptep_get() is not defined.  Fix by continuing to do a direct dereference
when MMU=n.  This is safe because for this config the arch code cannot be
trying to virtualize the ptes because none of the ptep helpers are
defined.

7780d04046 mm/pagewalkers: ACTION_AGAIN if pte_offset_map_lock() fails
Simple walk_page_range() users should set ACTION_AGAIN to retry when
pte_offset_map_lock() fails.

No need to check pmd_trans_unstable(): that was precisely to avoid the
possiblity of calling pte_offset_map() on a racily removed or inserted THP
entry, but such cases are now safely handled inside it.  Likewise there is
no need to check pmd_none() or pmd_bad() before calling it.

2f2665c13a sysctl: replace child with an enumeration
This is part of the effort to remove the empty element at the end of
ctl_table structs. "child" was a deprecated elem in this struct and was
being used to differentiate between two types of ctl_tables: "normal"
and "permanently emtpy".

What changed?:
* Replace "child" with an enumeration that will have two values: the
  default (0) and the permanently empty (1). The latter is left at zero
  so when struct ctl_table is created with kzalloc or in a local
  context, it will have the zero value by default. We document the
  new enum with kdoc.
* Remove the "empty child" check from sysctl_check_table
* Remove count_subheaders function as there is no longer a need to
  calculate how many headers there are for every child
* Remove the recursive call to unregister_sysctl_table as there is no
  need to traverse down the child tree any longer
* Add a new SYSCTL_PERM_EMPTY_DIR binary flag
* Remove the last remanence of child from partport/procfs.c

9e627588bf procfs: replace all non-returning strlcpy with strscpy
strlcpy() reads the entire source buffer first.  This read may exceed the
destination size limit.  This is both inefficient and can lead to linear
read overflows if a source string is not NUL-terminated [1].  In an effort
to remove strlcpy() completely [2], replace strlcpy() here with strscpy().
No return values were used, so direct replacement is safe.

dcdfdd40fa mm: Add support for unaccepted memory
UEFI Specification version 2.9 introduces the concept of memory
acceptance. Some Virtual Machine platforms, such as Intel TDX or AMD
SEV-SNP, require memory to be accepted before it can be used by the
guest. Accepting happens via a protocol specific to the Virtual Machine
platform.

There are several ways the kernel can deal with unaccepted memory:

 1. Accept all the memory during boot. It is easy to implement and it
    doesn't have runtime cost once the system is booted. The downside is
    very long boot time.

    Accept can be parallelized to multiple CPUs to keep it manageable
    (i.e. via DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT), but it tends to saturate
    memory bandwidth and does not scale beyond the point.

 2. Accept a block of memory on the first use. It requires more
    infrastructure and changes in page allocator to make it work, but
    it provides good boot time.

    On-demand memory accept means latency spikes every time kernel steps
    onto a new memory block. The spikes will go away once workload data
    set size gets stabilized or all memory gets accepted.

 3. Accept all memory in background. Introduce a thread (or multiple)
    that gets memory accepted proactively. It will minimize time the
    system experience latency spikes on memory allocation while keeping
    low boot time.

    This approach cannot function on its own. It is an extension of #2:
    background memory acceptance requires functional scheduler, but the
    page allocator may need to tap into unaccepted memory before that.

    The downside of the approach is that these threads also steal CPU
    cycles and memory bandwidth from the user's workload and may hurt
    user experience.

Implement #1 and #2 for now. #2 is the default. Some workloads may want
to use #1 with accept_memory=eager in kernel command line. #3 can be
implemented later based on user's demands.

Support of unaccepted memory requires a few changes in core-mm code:

  - memblock accepts memory on allocation. It serves early boot memory
    allocations and doesn't limit them to pre-accepted pool of memory.

  - page allocator accepts memory on the first allocation of the page.
    When kernel runs out of accepted memory, it accepts memory until the
    high watermark is reached. It helps to minimize fragmentation.

EFI code will provide two helpers if the platform supports unaccepted
memory:

 - accept_memory() makes a range of physical addresses accepted.

 - range_contains_unaccepted_memory() checks anything within the range
   of physical addresses requires acceptance.

Tools like readelf/llvm-readelf use p_align to parse a PT_NOTE program
header as an array of 4-byte entries or 8-byte entries. Currently, there
are workarounds[1] in place for Linux to treat p_align==0 as 4. However,
it would be more appropriate to set the correct alignment so that tools
do not have to rely on guesswork. FreeBSD coredumps set p_align to 4 as
well.

0199849acd sysctl: remove register_sysctl_paths()
The deprecation for register_sysctl_paths() is over. We can rejoice as
we nuke register_sysctl_paths(). The routine register_sysctl_table()
was the only user left of register_sysctl_paths(), so we can now just
open code and move the implementation over to what used to be
to __register_sysctl_paths().

The old dynamic struct ctl_table_set *set is now the point to
sysctl_table_root.default_set.

The old dynamic const struct ctl_path *path was being used in the
routine register_sysctl_paths() with a static:

static const struct ctl_path null_path[] = { {} };

Since this is a null path we can now just simplfy the old routine
and remove its use as its always empty.

This saves us a total of 230 bytes.

888d3c9f7f sysctl-6.4-rc1
This pull request goes with only a few sysctl moves from the
 kernel/sysctl.c file, the rest of the work has been put towards
 deprecating two API calls which incur recursion and prevent us
 from simplifying the registration process / saving memory per
 move. Most of the changes have been soaking on linux-next since
 v6.3-rc3.
 
 I've slowed down the kernel/sysctl.c moves due to Matthew Wilcox's
 feedback that we should see if we could *save* memory with these
 moves instead of incurring more memory. We currently incur more
 memory since when we move a syctl from kernel/sysclt.c out to its
 own file we end up having to add a new empty sysctl used to register
 it. To achieve saving memory we want to allow syctls to be passed
 without requiring the end element being empty, and just have our
 registration process rely on ARRAY_SIZE(). Without this, supporting
 both styles of sysctls would make the sysctl registration pretty
 brittle, hard to read and maintain as can be seen from Meng Tang's
 efforts to do just this [0]. Fortunately, in order to use ARRAY_SIZE()
 for all sysctl registrations also implies doing the work to deprecate
 two API calls which use recursion in order to support sysctl
 declarations with subdirectories.
 
 And so during this development cycle quite a bit of effort went into
 this deprecation effort. I've annotated the following two APIs are
 deprecated and in few kernel releases we should be good to remove them:
 
   * register_sysctl_table()
   * register_sysctl_paths()
 
 During this merge window we should be able to deprecate and unexport
 register_sysctl_paths(), we can probably do that towards the end
 of this merge window.
 
 Deprecating register_sysctl_table() will take a bit more time but
 this pull request goes with a few example of how to do this.
 
 As it turns out each of the conversions to move away from either of
 these two API calls *also* saves memory. And so long term, all these
 changes *will* prove to have saved a bit of memory on boot.
 
 The way I see it then is if remove a user of one deprecated call, it
 gives us enough savings to move one kernel/sysctl.c out from the
 generic arrays as we end up with about the same amount of bytes.
 
 Since deprecating register_sysctl_table() and register_sysctl_paths()
 does not require maintainer coordination except the final unexport
 you'll see quite a bit of these changes from other pull requests, I've
 just kept the stragglers after rc3.
 
 Most of these changes have been soaking on linux-next since around rc3.

522dc4e5f5 fs/proc: add Kthread flag to /proc/$pid/status
The command `ps -ef ` and `top -c` mark kernel thread by '[' and ']', but
sometimes the result is not correct.  The task->flags in /proc/$pid/stat
is good, but we need remember the value of PF_KTHREAD is 0x00200000 and
convert dec to hex.  If we have no binary program and shell script which
read /proc/$pid/stat, we can know it directly by `cat /proc/$pid/status`.

This adds the general_profit KSM sysfs knob and the process profit metric
knobs to ksm_stat.

1) expose general_profit metric

   The documentation mentions a general profit metric, however this
   metric is not calculated.  In addition the formula depends on the size
   of internal structures, which makes it more difficult for an
   administrator to make the calculation.  Adding the metric for a better
   user experience.

2) document general_profit sysfs knob

3) calculate ksm process profit metric

   The ksm documentation mentions the process profit metric and how to
   calculate it.  This adds the calculation of the metric.

4) mm: expose ksm process profit metric in ksm_stat

   This exposes the ksm process profit metric in /proc/<pid>/ksm_stat.
   The documentation mentions the formula for the ksm process profit
   metric, however it does not calculate it.  In addition the formula
   depends on the size of internal structures.  So it makes sense to
   expose it.

5) document new procfs ksm knobs

b4aca54792 smaps: fix defined but not used smaps_shmem_walk_ops
When !CONFIG_SHMEM smaps_shmem_walk_ops is defined but not used,
triggering a compiler warning.  To avoid the warning remove the #ifdef
around the usage.  This has no effect because shmem_mapping() is a stub
returning false when !CONFIG_SHMEM so the code will be compiled out,
however we now need to also provide a stub for shmem_swap_usage().

4c91c07c93 mm: vmalloc: convert vread() to vread_iter()
Having previously laid the foundation for converting vread() to an
iterator function, pull the trigger and do so.

This patch attempts to provide minimal refactoring and to reflect the
existing logic as best we can, for example we continue to zero portions of
memory not read, as before.

Overall, there should be no functional difference other than a performance
improvement in /proc/kcore access to vmalloc regions.

Now we have eliminated the need for a bounce buffer in read_kcore_iter(),
we dispense with it, and try to write to user memory optimistically but
with faults disabled via copy_page_to_iter_nofault().  We already have
preemption disabled by holding a spin lock.  We continue faulting in until
the operation is complete.

Additionally, we must account for the fact that at any point a copy may
fail (most likely due to a fault not being able to occur), we exit
indicating fewer bytes retrieved than expected.

46c0d6d090 fs/proc/kcore: convert read_kcore() to read_kcore_iter()
For the time being we still use a bounce buffer for vread(), however in

and eliminate the bounce buffer altogether.

2e1c017077 fs/proc/kcore: avoid bounce buffer for ktext data
Patch series "convert read_kcore(), vread() to use iterators", v8.

While reviewing Baoquan's recent changes to permit vread() access to
vm_map_ram regions of vmalloc allocations, Willy pointed out [1] that it
would be nice to refactor vread() as a whole, since its only user is
read_kcore() and the existing form of vread() necessitates the use of a
bounce buffer.

This patch series does exactly that, as well as adjusting how we read the
kernel text section to avoid the use of a bounce buffer in this case as
well.

This has been tested against the test case which motivated Baoquan's
changes in the first place [2] which continues to function correctly, as
do the vmalloc self tests.


This patch (of 4):

Commit df04abfd18 ("fs/proc/kcore.c: Add bounce buffer for ktext data")
introduced the use of a bounce buffer to retrieve kernel text data for
/proc/kcore in order to avoid failures arising from hardened user copies
enabled by CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY in check_kernel_text_object().

We can avoid doing this if instead of copy_to_user() we use
_copy_to_user() which bypasses the hardening check.  This is more
efficient than using a bounce buffer and simplifies the code.

We do so as part an overall effort to eliminate bounce buffer usage in the
function with an eye to converting it an iterator read.

bd23024b97 mm/memtest: add results of early memtest to /proc/meminfo
Currently the memtest results were only presented in dmesg.

When running a large fleet of devices without ECC RAM it's currently not
easy to do bulk monitoring for memory corruption.  You have to parse
dmesg, but that's a ring buffer so the error might disappear after some
time.  In general I do not consider dmesg to be a great API to query RAM
status.

In several companies I've seen such errors remain undetected and cause
issues for way too long.  So I think it makes sense to provide a
monitoring API, so that we can safely detect and act upon them.

This adds /proc/meminfo entry which can be easily used by scripts.

428e106ae1 mm: Introduce untagged_addr_remote()
untagged_addr() removes tags/metadata from the address and brings it to
the canonical form. The helper is implemented on arm64 and sparc. Both of
them do untagging based on global rules.

However, Linear Address Masking (LAM) on x86 introduces per-process
settings for untagging. As a result, untagged_addr() is now only
suitable for untagging addresses for the current proccess.

The new helper untagged_addr_remote() has to be used when the address
targets remote process. It requires the mmap lock for target mm to be
taken.

f122a08b19 capability: just use a 'u64' instead of a 'u32[2]' array
Back in 2008 we extended the capability bits from 32 to 64, and we did
it by extending the single 32-bit capability word from one word to an
array of two words.  It was then obfuscated by hiding the "2" behind two
macro expansions, with the reasoning being that maybe it gets extended
further some day.

That reasoning may have been valid at the time, but the last thing we
want to do is to extend the capability set any more.  And the array of
values not only causes source code oddities (with loops to deal with
it), but also results in worse code generation.  It's a lose-lose
situation.

So just change the 'u32[2]' into a 'u64' and be done with it.

We still have to deal with the fact that the user space interface is
designed around an array of these 32-bit values, but that was the case
before too, since the array layouts were different (ie user space
doesn't use an array of 32-bit values for individual capability masks,
but an array of 32-bit slices of multiple masks).

So that marshalling of data is actually simplified too, even if it does
remain somewhat obscure and odd.

This was all triggered by my reaction to the new "cap_isidentical()"
introduced recently.  By just using a saner data structure, it went from

	unsigned __capi;
	CAP_FOR_EACH_U32(__capi) {
		if (a.cap[__capi] != b.cap[__capi])
			return false;
	}
	return true;

to just being

	return a.val == b.val;

instead.  Which is rather more obvious both to humans and to compilers.

f1aa2eb5ea sysctl: fix proc_dobool() usability
Currently proc_dobool expects a (bool *) in table->data, but sizeof(int)
in table->maxsize, because it uses do_proc_dointvec() directly.

This is unsafe for at least two reasons:
1. A sysctl table definition may use { .data = &variable, .maxsize =
   sizeof(variable) }, not realizing that this makes the sysctl unusable
   (see the Fixes: tag) and that they need to use the completely
   counterintuitive sizeof(int) instead.
2. proc_dobool() will currently try to parse an array of values if given
   .maxsize >= 2*sizeof(int), but will try to write values of type bool
   by offsets of sizeof(int), so it will not work correctly with neither
   an (int *) nor a (bool *). There is no .maxsize validation to prevent
   this.

Fix this by:
1. Constraining proc_dobool() to allow only one value and .maxsize ==
   sizeof(bool).
2. Wrapping the original struct ctl_table in a temporary one with .data
   pointing to a local int variable and .maxsize set to sizeof(int) and
   passing this one to proc_dointvec(), converting the value to/from
   bool as needed (using proc_dou8vec_minmax() as an example).
3. Extending sysctl_check_table() to enforce proc_dobool() expectations.
4. Fixing the proc_dobool() docstring (it was just copy-pasted from
   proc_douintvec, apparently...).
5. Converting all existing proc_dobool() users to set .maxsize to
   sizeof(bool) instead of sizeof(int).

Fixes: 83efeeeb3d ("tty: Allow TIOCSTI to be disabled")
Fixes: a2071573d6 ("sysctl: introduce new proc handler proc_dobool")

Merge tag 'fs.idmapped.v6.3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/idmapping

Pull vfs idmapping updates from Christian Brauner:

 - Last cycle we introduced the dedicated struct mnt_idmap type for
   mount idmapping and the required infrastucture in 256c8aed2b ("fs:
   introduce dedicated idmap type for mounts"). As promised in last
   cycle's pull request message this converts everything to rely on
   struct mnt_idmap.

   Currently we still pass around the plain namespace that was attached
   to a mount. This is in general pretty convenient but it makes it easy
   to conflate namespaces that are relevant on the filesystem with
   namespaces that are relevant on the mount level. Especially for
   non-vfs developers without detailed knowledge in this area this was a
   potential source for bugs.

   This finishes the conversion. Instead of passing the plain namespace
   around this updates all places that currently take a pointer to a
   mnt_userns with a pointer to struct mnt_idmap.

   Now that the conversion is done all helpers down to the really
   low-level helpers only accept a struct mnt_idmap argument instead of
   two namespace arguments.

   Conflating mount and other idmappings will now cause the compiler to
   complain loudly thus eliminating the possibility of any bugs. This
   makes it impossible for filesystem developers to mix up mount and
   filesystem idmappings as they are two distinct types and require
   distinct helpers that cannot be used interchangeably.

   Everything associated with struct mnt_idmap is moved into a single
   separate file. With that change no code can poke around in struct
   mnt_idmap. It can only be interacted with through dedicated helpers.
   That means all filesystems are and all of the vfs is completely
   oblivious to the actual implementation of idmappings.

   We are now also able to extend struct mnt_idmap as we see fit. For
   example, we can decouple it completely from namespaces for users that
   don't require or don't want to use them at all. We can also extend
   the concept of idmappings so we can cover filesystem specific
   requirements.

   In combination with the vfs{g,u}id_t work we finished in v6.2 this
   makes this feature substantially more robust and thus difficult to
   implement wrong by a given filesystem and also protects the vfs.

 - Enable idmapped mounts for tmpfs and fulfill a longstanding request.

   A long-standing request from users had been to make it possible to
   create idmapped mounts for tmpfs. For example, to share the host's
   tmpfs mount between multiple sandboxes. This is a prerequisite for
   some advanced Kubernetes cases. Systemd also has a range of use-cases
   to increase service isolation. And there are more users of this.

   However, with all of the other work going on this was way down on the
   priority list but luckily someone other than ourselves picked this
   up.

   As usual the patch is tiny as all the infrastructure work had been
   done multiple kernel releases ago. In addition to all the tests that
   we already have I requested that Rodrigo add a dedicated tmpfs
   testsuite for idmapped mounts to xfstests. It is to be included into
   xfstests during the v6.3 development cycle. This should add a slew of
   additional tests.
