Setting event::hw.last_tag to zero is not necessary. The memory
for each event is dynamically allocated by the kernel common code and
initialized to zero already. Remove this unnecessary assignment.
Move the comment to function paicrypt_start() for clarification.

Most architectures that support kprobes declare this function in their
own asm/kprobes.h header and provide an override, but some are missing
the prototype, which causes a warning for the __weak stub implementation:
kernel/kprobes.c:1865:12: error: no previous prototype for 'kprobe_exceptions_notify' [-Werror=missing-prototypes]
1865 | int __weak kprobe_exceptions_notify(struct notifier_block *self,
Move the prototype into linux/kprobes.h so it is visible to all
the definitions.

Pull more s390 updates from Vasily Gorbik:
- Get rid of s390 specific use of two PTEs per 4KB page with complex
half-used pages tracking. Using full 4KB pages for 2KB PTEs increases
the memory footprint of page tables but drastically simplify mm code,
removing a common blocker for common code changes and adaptations
- Simplify and rework "cmma no-dat" handling. This is a follow up for
recent fixes which prevent potential incorrect guest TLB flushes
- Add perf user stack unwinding as well as USER_STACKTRACE support for
user space built with -mbackchain compile option
- Add few missing conversion from tlb_remove_table to tlb_remove_ptdesc
- Fix crypto cards vanishing in a secure execution environment due to
asynchronous errors

Cease using 4KB pages to host two 2KB PTEs. That greatly
simplifies the memory management code at the expense of
page tables memory footprint.
Instead of two PTEs per 4KB page use only upper half of
the parent page for a single PTE. With that the list of
half-used pages pgtable_list becomes unneeded.
Further, the upper byte of the parent page _refcount
counter does not need to be used for fragments tracking
and could be left alone.
Commit 8211dad62798 ("s390: add pte_free_defer() for
pgtables sharing page") introduced the use of PageActive
flag to coordinate a deferred free with 2KB page table
fragments tracking. Since there is no tracking anymore,
there is no need for using PageActive flag.

Rework the way physical pages are set no-dat / dat:
The old way is:
- Rely on that all pages are initially marked "dat"
- Allocate page tables for the kernel mapping
- Enable dat
- Walk the whole kernel mapping and set PG_arch_1 bit in all struct pages
that belong to pages of kernel page tables
- Walk all struct pages and test and clear the PG_arch_1 bit. If the bit is
not set, set the page state to no-dat
- For all subsequent page table allocations, set the page state to dat
(remove the no-dat state) on allocation time
Change this rather complex logic to a simpler approach:
- Set the whole physical memory (all pages) to "no-dat"
- Explicitly set those page table pages to "dat" which are part of the
kernel image (e.g. swapper_pg_dir)
- For all subsequent page table allocations, set the page state to dat
(remove the no-dat state) on allocation time
In result the code is simpler, and this also allows to get rid of one
odd usage of the PG_arch_1 bit.

In order to be usable for early boot code move the simple
arch_set_page_dat() function to header file, and add its counter-part
arch_set_page_nodat(). Also change the parameters, and the function name
slightly.
This is required since there aren't any struct pages available in early
boot code, and renaming of functions is done to make sure that all users
are converted to the new API.
Instead of a pointer to a struct page a virtual address is passed, and
instead of an order the number of pages for which the page state needs be
set.

Use the perf_callchain_user() code as blueprint to also add support for
USER_STACKTRACE. To describe how to use this cite the commit message of the
LoongArch implementation which came with commit 4d7bf939df08 ("LoongArch:
Add USER_STACKTRACE support"), but replace -fno-omit-frame-pointer option
with the s390 specific -mbackchain option:
====================================================================== To
get the best stacktrace output, you can compile your userspace programs
with frame pointers (at least glibc + the app you are tracing).
1, export "CC = gcc -mbackchain";
2, compile your programs with "CC";
3, use uprobe to get stacktrace output.
...
echo 'p:malloc /usr/lib64/libc.so.6:0x0a4704 size=%r2:u64' > uprobe_events
echo 'p:free /usr/lib64/libc.so.6:0x0a4d50 ptr=%r2:u64' >> uprobe_events
echo 'comm == "demo"' > ./events/uprobes/malloc/filter

Daan De Meyer and Neal Gompa reported that s390 does not support perf user
stack unwinding.
This was never implemented since this requires user space to be compiled
with the -mbackchain compile option, which until now no distribution
did. However this is going to change with Fedora. Therefore provide a
perf_callchain_user() implementation.
Note that due to the way s390 sets up stack frames the provided call chains
can contain invalid values. This is especially true for the first stack
frame, where it is not possible to tell if the return address has been
written to the stack already or not.

Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"ARM:
- Generalized infrastructure for 'writable' ID registers, effectively
allowing userspace to opt-out of certain vCPU features for its
guest
- Optimization for vSGI injection, opportunistically compressing
MPIDR to vCPU mapping into a table
- Improvements to KVM's PMU emulation, allowing userspace to select
the number of PMCs available to a VM
- Guest support for memory operation instructions (FEAT_MOPS)
- Cleanups to handling feature flags in KVM_ARM_VCPU_INIT, squashing
bugs and getting rid of useless code
- Changes to the way the SMCCC filter is constructed, avoiding wasted
memory allocations when not in use
- Load the stage-2 MMU context at vcpu_load() for VHE systems,
reducing the overhead of errata mitigations
- Miscellaneous kernel and selftest fixes
LoongArch:
- New architecture for kvm.
The hardware uses the same model as x86, s390 and RISC-V, where
guest/host mode is orthogonal to supervisor/user mode. The
virtualization extensions are very similar to MIPS, therefore the
code also has some similarities but it's been cleaned up to avoid
some of the historical bogosities that are found in arch/mips. The
kernel emulates MMU, timer and CSR accesses, while interrupt
controllers are only emulated in userspace, at least for now.
RISC-V:
- Support for the Smstateen and Zicond extensions
- Support for virtualizing senvcfg
- Support for virtualized SBI debug console (DBCN)
S390:
- Nested page table management can be monitored through tracepoints
and statistics
x86:
- Fix incorrect handling of VMX posted interrupt descriptor in
KVM_SET_LAPIC, which could result in a dropped timer IRQ
- Avoid WARN on systems with Intel IPI virtualization
- Add CONFIG_KVM_MAX_NR_VCPUS, to allow supporting up to 4096 vCPUs
without forcing more common use cases to eat the extra memory
overhead.
- Add virtualization support for AMD SRSO mitigation (IBPB_BRTYPE and
SBPB, aka Selective Branch Predictor Barrier).
- Fix a bug where restoring a vCPU snapshot that was taken within 1
second of creating the original vCPU would cause KVM to try to
synchronize the vCPU's TSC and thus clobber the correct TSC being
set by userspace.
- Compute guest wall clock using a single TSC read to avoid
generating an inaccurate time, e.g. if the vCPU is preempted
between multiple TSC reads.
- "Virtualize" HWCR.TscFreqSel to make Linux guests happy, which
complain about a "Firmware Bug" if the bit isn't set for select
F/M/S combos. Likewise "virtualize" (ignore) MSR_AMD64_TW_CFG to
appease Windows Server 2022.
- Don't apply side effects to Hyper-V's synthetic timer on writes
from userspace to fix an issue where the auto-enable behavior can
trigger spurious interrupts, i.e. do auto-enabling only for guest
writes.
- Remove an unnecessary kick of all vCPUs when synchronizing the
dirty log without PML enabled.
- Advertise "support" for non-serializing FS/GS base MSR writes as
appropriate.
- Harden the fast page fault path to guard against encountering an
invalid root when walking SPTEs.
- Omit "struct kvm_vcpu_xen" entirely when CONFIG_KVM_XEN=n.
- Use the fast path directly from the timer callback when delivering
Xen timer events, instead of waiting for the next iteration of the
run loop. This was not done so far because previously proposed code
had races, but now care is taken to stop the hrtimer at critical
points such as restarting the timer or saving the timer information
for userspace.
- Follow the lead of upstream Xen and ignore the VCPU_SSHOTTMR_future
flag.
- Optimize injection of PMU interrupts that are simultaneous with
NMIs.
- Usual handful of fixes for typos and other warts.
x86 - MTRR/PAT fixes and optimizations:
- Clean up code that deals with honoring guest MTRRs when the VM has
non-coherent DMA and host MTRRs are ignored, i.e. EPT is enabled.
- Zap EPT entries when non-coherent DMA assignment stops/start to
prevent using stale entries with the wrong memtype.
- Don't ignore guest PAT for CR0.CD=1 && KVM_X86_QUIRK_CD_NW_CLEARED=y
This was done as a workaround for virtual machine BIOSes that did
not bother to clear CR0.CD (because ancient KVM/QEMU did not bother
to set it, in turn), and there's zero reason to extend the quirk to
also ignore guest PAT.
x86 - SEV fixes:
- Report KVM_EXIT_SHUTDOWN instead of EINVAL if KVM intercepts
SHUTDOWN while running an SEV-ES guest.
- Clean up the recognition of emulation failures on SEV guests, when
KVM would like to "skip" the instruction but it had already been
partially emulated. This makes it possible to drop a hack that
second guessed the (insufficient) information provided by the
emulator, and just do the right thing.
Documentation:
- Various updates and fixes, mostly for x86
- MTRR and PAT fixes and optimizations"

Pull sysctl updates from Luis Chamberlain:
"To help make the move of sysctls out of kernel/sysctl.c not incur a
size penalty sysctl has been changed to allow us to not require the
sentinel, the final empty element on the sysctl array. Joel Granados
has been doing all this work. On the v6.6 kernel we got the major
infrastructure changes required to support this. For v6.7-rc1 we have
all arch/ and drivers/ modified to remove the sentinel. Both arch and
driver changes have been on linux-next for a bit less than a month. It
is worth re-iterating the value:
- this helps reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run
time memory consumed by the kernel by about ~64 bytes per array
- the extra 64-byte penalty is no longer inncurred now when we move
sysctls out from kernel/sysctl.c to their own files
For v6.8-rc1 expect removal of all the sentinels and also then the
unneeded check for procname == NULL.
The last two patches are fixes recently merged by Krister Johansen
which allow us again to use softlockup_panic early on boot. This used
to work but the alias work broke it. This is useful for folks who want
to detect softlockups super early rather than wait and spend money on
cloud solutions with nothing but an eventual hung kernel. Although
this hadn't gone through linux-next it's also a stable fix, so we
might as well roll through the fixes now"

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.

Pull vfs inode time accessor updates from Christian Brauner:
"This finishes the conversion of all inode time fields to accessor
functions as discussed on list. Changing timestamps manually as we
used to do before is error prone. Using accessors function makes this
robust.
It does not contain the switch of the time fields to discrete 64 bit
integers to replace struct timespec and free up space in struct inode.
But after this, the switch can be trivially made and the patch should
only affect the vfs if we decide to do it"

Currently, there is no standard implementation for vdso_install,
leading to various issues:
1. Code duplication
Many architectures duplicate similar code just for copying files
to the install destination.
Some architectures (arm, sparc, x86) create build-id symlinks,
introducing more code duplication.
2. Unintended updates of in-tree build artifacts
The vdso_install rule depends on the vdso files to install.
It may update in-tree build artifacts. This can be problematic,
as explained in commit 19514fc665ff ("arm, kbuild: make
"make install" not depend on vmlinux").
3. Broken code in some architectures
Makefile code is often copied from one architecture to another
without proper adaptation.
'make vdso_install' for parisc does not work.
'make vdso_install' for s390 installs vdso64, but not vdso32.
To address these problems, this commit introduces a generic vdso_install
rule.
Architectures that support vdso_install need to define vdso-install-y
in arch/*/Makefile. vdso-install-y lists the files to install.
For example, arch/x86/Makefile looks like this:
vdso-install-$(CONFIG_X86_64) += arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso64.so.dbg
vdso-install-$(CONFIG_X86_X32_ABI) += arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdsox32.so.dbg
vdso-install-$(CONFIG_X86_32) += arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso32.so.dbg
vdso-install-$(CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION) += arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso32.so.dbg
These files will be installed to $(MODLIB)/vdso/ with the .dbg suffix,
if exists, stripped away.
vdso-install-y can optionally take the second field after the colon
separator. This is needed because some architectures install a vdso
file as a different base name.
The following is a snippet from arch/arm64/Makefile.
vdso-install-$(CONFIG_COMPAT_VDSO) += arch/arm64/kernel/vdso32/vdso.so.dbg:vdso32.so
This will rename vdso.so.dbg to vdso32.so during installation. If such
architectures change their implementation so that the base names match,
this workaround will go away.

If the cmma no-dat feature is available the kernel page tables are walked
to identify and mark all pages which are used for address translation (all
region, segment, and page tables). In a subsequent loop all other pages are
marked as "no-dat" pages with the ESSA instruction.
This information is visible to the hypervisor, so that the hypervisor can
optimize purging of guest TLB entries. All pages used for swapper_pg_dir
and invalid_pg_dir are incorrectly marked as no-dat, which in turn can
result in incorrect guest TLB flushes.
Fix this by marking those pages correctly as being used for DAT.

incorrectly marked as no-dat.
This can result in incorrect guest TLB flushes.
Fix this by simply marking all four pages.

Function paicrypt_event_init() initializes the PMU device driver
specific details for an event. It is called once per event creation.
The function paicrypt_event_init() is not necessarily executed on
that CPU the event will be used for.
When an event is activated, function paicrypt_start() is used to
start the event on that CPU.
The per CPU data structure struct paicrypt_map has a pointer to
the event which is active for a particular CPU. This pointer is
set in function paicrypt_start() to point to the currently installed
event. There is no need to also set this pointer in function
paicrypt_event_init() where is might be assigned to the wrong CPU.
Therefore remove this assignment in paicrypt_event_init().

Event count value is initialized and set to zero in function
paicrypt_start(). This function is called once per CPU when an
event is started on that CPU. This leads to event count value
being set to zero as many times as there are online CPUs.
This is not necessary. The event count value is bound to the event
and it is sufficient to initialize the event counter once at
event creation time. This is done when the event structure
is dynamicly allocated with __GFP_ZERO flag. This sets
member count to zero.

If the cmma no-dat feature is available all pages that are not used for
dynamic address translation are marked as "no-dat" with the ESSA
instruction. This information is visible to the hypervisor, so that the
hypervisor can optimize purging of guest TLB entries. This also means that
pages which are used for dynamic address translation must not be marked as
"no-dat", since the hypervisor may then incorrectly not purge guest TLB
entries.
Region, segment, and page tables allocated within the gmap code are
incorrectly marked as "no-dat", since an explicit call to
arch_set_page_dat() is missing, which would remove the "no-dat" mark.
In order to fix this add a new gmap_alloc_crst() function which should
be used to allocate region and segment tables, and which also calls
arch_set_page_dat().
Also add the arch_set_page_dat() call to page_table_alloc_pgste().

Region and segment tables allocated via vmem_crst_alloc() are incorrectly

Such tables are allocated e.g. when kernel page tables are split, memory is
hotplugged, or a DCSS segment is loaded.
Fix this by adding the missing arch_set_page_dat() call.

Get rid of do_fault_error() and move its contents to do_exception(),
which makes do_exception(). With removing do_fault_error() it is also
possible to get rid of the handle_fault_error_nolock() wrapper.
Instead rename do_no_context() to handle_fault_error_nolock().
In result the whole fault handling looks much more like on other
architectures.

do_no_context() can be simplified by removing its fault parameter,
which is only used to decide if kfence_handle_page_fault() should be
called.
If the fault happened within the kernel space it is ok to always check
if this happened on a page which was unmapped because of the kfence
feature. Limiting the check to the VM_FAULT_BADCONTEXT case doesn't
add any value.
