Pull iommufd implementation from Jason Gunthorpe:
"iommufd is the user API to control the IOMMU subsystem as it relates
to managing IO page tables that point at user space memory.
It takes over from drivers/vfio/vfio_iommu_type1.c (aka the VFIO
container) which is the VFIO specific interface for a similar idea.
We see a broad need for extended features, some being highly IOMMU
device specific:
- Binding iommu_domain's to PASID/SSID
- Userspace IO page tables, for ARM, x86 and S390
- Kernel bypassed invalidation of user page tables
- Re-use of the KVM page table in the IOMMU
- Dirty page tracking in the IOMMU
- Runtime Increase/Decrease of IOPTE size
- PRI support with faults resolved in userspace
Many of these HW features exist to support VM use cases - for instance
the combination of PASID, PRI and Userspace IO Page Tables allows an
implementation of DMA Shared Virtual Addressing (vSVA) within a guest.
Dirty tracking enables VM live migration with SRIOV devices and PASID
support allow creating "scalable IOV" devices, among other things.
As these features are fundamental to a VM platform they need to be
uniformly exposed to all the driver families that do DMA into VMs,
which is currently VFIO and VDPA"

In current form, FORCE_NR_CPUS is visible to all users building their
kernels, even not experts. It is also set in allmodconfig or

This patch fixes it. It also changes the parameter short description:
removes implementation details and highlights the effect of the change.

The span iterator travels over the indexes of the interval_tree, not the
nodes, and classifies spans of indexes as either 'used' or 'hole'.
'used' spans are fully covered by nodes in the tree and 'hole' spans have
no node intersecting the span.
This is done greedily such that spans are maximally sized and every
iteration step switches between used/hole.
As an example a trivial allocator can be written as:
for (interval_tree_span_iter_first(&span, itree, 0, ULONG_MAX);
!interval_tree_span_iter_done(&span);
interval_tree_span_iter_next(&span))
if (span.is_hole &&
span.last_hole - span.start_hole >= allocation_size - 1)
return span.start_hole;
With all the tricky boundary conditions handled by the library code.
The following iommufd patches have several algorithms for its overlapping
node interval trees that are significantly simplified with this kind of
iteration primitive. As it seems generally useful, put it into lib/.

With CXL security features, and CXL dynamic provisioning, global CPU
cache flushing nvdimm requirements are no longer specific to that
subsystem, even beyond the scope of security_ops. CXL will need such
semantics for features not necessarily limited to persistent memory.
The functionality this is enabling is to be able to instantaneously
secure erase potentially terabytes of memory at once and the kernel
needs to be sure that none of the data from before the erase is still
present in the cache. It is also used when unlocking a memory device
where speculative reads and firmware accesses could have cached poison
from before the device was unlocked. Lastly this facility is used when
mapping new devices, or new capacity into an established physical
address range. I.e. when the driver switches DeviceA mapping AddressX to
DeviceB mapping AddressX then any cached data from DeviceA:AddressX
needs to be invalidated.
This capability is typically only used once per-boot (for unlock), or
once per bare metal provisioning event (secure erase), like when handing
off the system to another tenant or decommissioning a device. It may
also be used for dynamic CXL region provisioning.
Users must first call cpu_cache_has_invalidate_memregion() to know
whether this functionality is available on the architecture. On x86 this
respects the constraints of when wbinvd() is tolerable. It is already
the case that wbinvd() is problematic to allow in VMs due its global
performance impact and KVM, for example, has been known to just trap and
ignore the call. With confidential computing guest execution of wbinvd()
may even trigger an exception. Given guests should not be messing with
the bare metal address map via CXL configuration changes
cpu_cache_has_invalidate_memregion() returns false in VMs.
While this global cache invalidation facility, is exported to modules,
since NVDIMM and CXL support can be built as a module, it is not for
general use. The intent is that this facility is not available outside
of specific "device-memory" use cases. To make that expectation as clear
as possible the API is scoped to a new "DEVMEM" module namespace that
only the NVDIMM and CXL subsystems are expected to import.

Pull bitmap updates from Yury Norov:
- Fix unsigned comparison to -1 in CPUMAP_FILE_MAX_BYTES (Phil Auld)
- cleanup nr_cpu_ids vs nr_cpumask_bits mess (me)
This series cleans that mess and adds new config FORCE_NR_CPUS that
allows to optimize cpumask subsystem if the number of CPUs is known
at compile-time.
- optimize find_bit() functions (me)
Reworks find_bit() functions based on new FIND_{FIRST,NEXT}_BIT()
macros.

Adds find_nth_bit(), which is ~70 times faster than bitcounting with
for_each() loop:
for_each_set_bit(bit, mask, size)
if (n-- == 0)
return bit;
Also adds bitmap_weight_and() to let people replace this pattern:
tmp = bitmap_alloc(nbits);
bitmap_and(tmp, map1, map2, nbits);
weight = bitmap_weight(tmp, nbits);
bitmap_free(tmp);

With CONFIG_ZSTD_COMPRESS=m and CONFIG_ZSTD_DECOMPRESS=y we end up in
a situation when files from lib/zstd/common/ are compiled once to be
linked later for ZSTD_DECOMPRESS (build-in) and ZSTD_COMPRESS (module)
even though CFLAGS are different for builtins and modules.
So far somehow this was not a problem but enabling LLVM LTO exposes
the problem as:
ld.lld: error: linking module flags 'Code Model': IDs have conflicting values in 'lib/built-in.a(zstd_common.o at 5868)' and 'ld-temp.o'
This particular conflict is caused by KBUILD_CFLAGS=-mcmodel=medium vs.
KBUILD_CFLAGS_MODULE=-mcmodel=large , modules use the large model on
POWERPC as explained at
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/arch/powerpc/Makefile?h=v5.18-rc4#n127
but the current use of common files is wrong anyway.
This works around the issue by introducing a zstd_common module with
shared code.

The size of cpumasks is hard-limited by compile-time parameter NR_CPUS,
but defined at boot-time when kernel parses ACPI/DT tables, and stored in
nr_cpu_ids. In many practical cases, number of CPUs for a target is known
at compile time, and can be provided with NR_CPUS.
In that case, compiler may be instructed to rely on NR_CPUS as on actual
number of CPUs, not an upper limit. It allows to optimize many cpumask
routines and significantly shrink size of the kernel image.
This patch adds FORCE_NR_CPUS option to teach the compiler to rely on
NR_CPUS and enable corresponding optimizations.
If FORCE_NR_CPUS=y, kernel will not set nr_cpu_ids at boot, but only check
that the actual number of possible CPUs is equal to NR_CPUS, and WARN if
that doesn't hold.
The new option is especially useful in embedded applications because
kernel configurations are unique for each SoC, the number of CPUs is
constant and known well, and memory limitations are typically harder.
For my 4-CPU ARM64 build with NR_CPUS=4, FORCE_NR_CPUS=y saves 46KB:
add/remove: 3/4 grow/shrink: 46/729 up/down: 652/-46952 (-46300)

As requested at
https://lore.kernel.org/r/YtEgzHuuMts0YBCz@gondor.apana.org.au, move
__crypto_memneq into lib/crypto/ and put it under a new tristate. The
tristate is CRYPTO_LIB_UTILS, and it builds a module libcryptoutils. As
more crypto library utilities are being added, this creates a single
place for them to go without cluttering up the main lib directory.
The module's main file will be lib/crypto/utils.c. However, leave
memneq.c as its own file because of its nonstandard license.

As Linus explained [1], setting the stackdepot hash table size as a config
option is suboptimal, especially as stackdepot becomes a dependency of
less "expert" subsystems than initially (e.g. DRM, networking,
SLUB_DEBUG):
: (a) it introduces a new compile-time question that isn't sane to ask
: a regular user, but is now exposed to regular users.
: (b) this by default uses 1MB of memory for a feature that didn't in
: the past, so now if you have small machines you need to make sure you
: make a special kernel config for them.
Ideally we would employ rhashtable for fully automatic resizing, which
should be feasible for many of the new users, but problematic for the
original users with restricted context that call __stack_depot_save() with
can_alloc == false, i.e. KASAN.
However we can easily remove the config option and scale the hash table
automatically with system memory. The STACK_HASH_MASK constant becomes
stack_hash_mask variable and is used only in one mask operation, so the
overhead should be negligible to none. For early allocation we can employ
the existing alloc_large_system_hash() function and perform similar
scaling for the late allocation.
The existing limits of the config option (between 4k and 1M buckets) are
preserved, and scaling factor is set to one bucket per 16kB memory so on
64bit the max 1M buckets (8MB memory) is achieved with 16GB system, while
a 1GB system will use 512kB.
Because KASAN is reported to need the maximum number of buckets even with
smaller amounts of memory [2], set it as such when kasan_enabled().
If needed, the automatic scaling could be complemented with a boot-time
kernel parameter, but it feels pointless to add it without a specific use
case.

Generic MMIO read/write i.e., __raw_{read,write}{b,l,w,q} accessors
are typically used to read/write from/to memory mapped registers
and can cause hangs or some undefined behaviour in following few
cases,
* If the access to the register space is unclocked, for example: if
there is an access to multimedia(MM) block registers without MM
clocks.
* If the register space is protected and not set to be accessible from
non-secure world, for example: only EL3 (EL: Exception level) access
is allowed and any EL2/EL1 access is forbidden.
* If xPU(memory/register protection units) is controlling access to
certain memory/register space for specific clients.
and more...
Such cases usually results in instant reboot/SErrors/NOC or interconnect
hangs and tracing these register accesses can be very helpful to debug
such issues during initial development stages and also in later stages.
So use ftrace trace events to log such MMIO register accesses which
provides rich feature set such as early enablement of trace events,
filtering capability, dumping ftrace logs on console and many more.
Sample output:
rwmmio_write: __qcom_geni_serial_console_write+0x160/0x1e0 width=32 val=0xa0d5d addr=0xfffffbfffdbff700

Currently, enabling CONFIG_STACKDEPOT means its stack_table will be
allocated from memblock, even if stack depot ends up not actually used.
The default size of stack_table is 4MB on 32-bit, 8MB on 64-bit.
This is fine for use-cases such as KASAN which is also a config option
and has overhead on its own. But it's an issue for functionality that
has to be actually enabled on boot (page_owner) or depends on hardware
(GPU drivers) and thus the memory might be wasted. This was raised as
an issue [1] when attempting to add stackdepot support for SLUB's debug
object tracking functionality. It's common to build kernels with
CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG and enable slub_debug on boot only when needed, or
create only specific kmem caches with debugging for testing purposes.
It would thus be more efficient if stackdepot's table was allocated only
when actually going to be used. This patch thus makes the allocation
(and whole stack_depot_init() call) optional:
- Add a CONFIG_STACKDEPOT_ALWAYS_INIT flag to keep using the current
well-defined point of allocation as part of mem_init(). Make
CONFIG_KASAN select this flag.
- Other users have to call stack_depot_init() as part of their own init
when it's determined that stack depot will actually be used. This may
depend on both config and runtime conditions. Convert current users
which are page_owner and several in the DRM subsystem. Same will be
done for SLUB later.
- Because the init might now be called after the boot-time memblock
allocation has given all memory to the buddy allocator, change
stack_depot_init() to allocate stack_table with kvmalloc() when
memblock is no longer available. Also handle allocation failure by
disabling stackdepot (could have theoretically happened even with
memblock allocation previously), and don't unnecessarily align the
memblock allocation to its own size anymore.

Subject: lib/stackdepot: allow optional init and stack_table allocation by kvmalloc() - fixup
On FLATMEM, we call page_ext_init_flatmem_late() just before
kmem_cache_init() which means stack_depot_init() (called by page owner
init) will not recognize properly it should use kvmalloc() and not
memblock_alloc(). memblock_alloc() will also not issue a warning and
return a block memory that can be invalid and cause kernel page fault when
saving stacks, as reported by the kernel test robot [1].
Fix this by moving page_ext_init_flatmem_late() below kmem_cache_init() so
that slab_is_available() is true during stack_depot_init(). SPARSEMEM
doesn't have this issue, as it doesn't do page_ext_init_flatmem_late(),
but a different page_ext_init() even later in the boot process.
Thanks to Mike Rapoport for pointing out the FLATMEM init ordering issue.
While at it, also actually resolve a checkpatch warning in stack_depot_init()
from DRM CI, which was supposed to be in the original patch already.

It can be hard to track where references are taken and released.
In networking, we have annoying issues at device or netns dismantles,
and we had various proposals to ease root causing them.
This patch adds new infrastructure pairing refcount increases
and decreases. This will self document code, because programmers
will have to associate increments/decrements.
This is controled by CONFIG_REF_TRACKER which can be selected
by users of this feature.
This adds both cpu and memory costs, and thus should probably be

Most architectures do not need a custom implementation, and in most
cases the generic implementation is preferred, so change the polariy
on these Kconfig symbols to require architectures to select them when
they provide their own version.
The new name is CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_{STRNCPY_FROM,STRNLEN}_USER.
The remaining architectures at the moment are: ia64, mips, parisc,
um and xtensa. We should probably convert these as well, but
I was not sure how far to take this series. Thomas Bogendoerfer
had some concerns about converting mips but may still do some
more detailed measurements to see which version is better.

Add IO memory emulation that uses callbacks for read/write to
the allocated regions. The callbacks can be registered by the
users using logic_iomem_alloc().
To use, an architecture must 'select LOGIC_IOMEM' in Kconfig
and then include <asm-generic/logic_io.h> into asm/io.h to get
the __raw_read*/__raw_write* functions.
Optionally, an architecture may 'select LOGIC_IOMEM_FALLBACK'

We have a need in the TPM2 trusted keys to return the ASN.1 form of the TPM
key blob so it can be operated on by tools outside of the kernel. The
specific tools are the openssl_tpm2_engine, openconnect and the Intel
tpm2-tss-engine. To do that, we have to be able to read and write the same
binary key format the tools use. The current ASN.1 decoder does fine for
reading, but we need pieces of an ASN.1 encoder to write the key blob in
binary compatible form.
For backwards compatibility, the trusted key reader code will still accept
the two TPM2B quantities that it uses today, but the writer will only
output the ASN.1 form.
The current implementation only encodes the ASN.1 bits we actually need.

Use CONFIG_STACK_HASH_ORDER to configure STACK_HASH_SIZE.
Aim is to have configurable value for STACK_HASH_SIZE,
so depend on use case one can configure it.
One example is of Page Owner, CONFIG_PAGE_OWNER works only if
page_owner=on via kernel parameter on CONFIG_PAGE_OWNER configured system.
Thus, unless admin enable it via command line option, the stackdepot will
just waste 8M memory without any customer.
Making it configurable and use lower value helps to enable features like
CONFIG_PAGE_OWNER without any significant overhead.

As part of adding STRICT_DEVMEM support to the RISC-V port, Zong provided an
implementation of devmem_is_allowed() that's exactly the same as the version in
a handful of other ports. Rather than duplicate code, I've put a generic
version of this in lib/ and used it for the RISC-V port.
* palmer/generic-devmem:
arm64: Use the generic devmem_is_allowed()

In reaction to a proposal to introduce a memcpy_mcsafe_fast()
implementation Linus points out that memcpy_mcsafe() is poorly named
relative to communicating the scope of the interface. Specifically what
addresses are valid to pass as source, destination, and what faults /
exceptions are handled.
Of particular concern is that even though x86 might be able to handle
the semantics of copy_mc_to_user() with its common copy_user_generic()
implementation other archs likely need / want an explicit path for this
case:

Replace a single top-level memcpy_mcsafe() with either
copy_mc_to_user(), or copy_mc_to_kernel().
Introduce an x86 copy_mc_fragile() name as the rename for the
low-level x86 implementation formerly named memcpy_mcsafe(). It is used
as the slow / careful backend that is supplanted by a fast
copy_mc_generic() in a follow-on patch.
One side-effect of this reorganization is that separating copy_mc_64.S
to its own file means that perf no longer needs to track dependencies
for its memcpy_64.S benchmarks.

- Add unzstd() and the zstd decompress interface.
- Add zstd support to decompress_method().
The decompress_method() and unzstd() functions are used to decompress
the initramfs and the initrd. The __decompress() function is used in
the preboot environment to decompress a zstd compressed kernel.
The zstd decompression function allows the input and output buffers to
overlap because that is used by x86 kernel decompression.

The pldmfw library is used to implement common logic needed to flash
devices based on firmware files using the format described by the PLDM
for Firmware Update standard.
This library consists of logic to parse the PLDM file format from
a firmware file object, as well as common logic for sending the relevant
PLDM header data to the device firmware.
A simple ops table is provided so that device drivers can implement
device specific hardware interactions while keeping the common logic to
the pldmfw library.
This library will be used by the Intel ice networking driver as part of
implementing device flash update via devlink. The library aims to be
vendor and device agnostic. For this reason, it has been placed in
lib/pldmfw, in the hopes that other devices which use the PLDM firmware
file format may benefit from it in the future. However, do note that not
all features defined in the PLDM standard have been implemented.

Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
"A sizeable pile of arm64 updates for 5.8.
Summary below, but the big two features are support for Branch Target
Identification and Clang's Shadow Call stack. The latter is currently
arm64-only, but the high-level parts are all in core code so it could
easily be adopted by other architectures pending toolchain support
Branch Target Identification (BTI):
- Support for ARMv8.5-BTI in both user- and kernel-space. This allows
branch targets to limit the types of branch from which they can be
called and additionally prevents branching to arbitrary code,
although kernel support requires a very recent toolchain.
- Function annotation via SYM_FUNC_START() so that assembly functions
are wrapped with the relevant "landing pad" instructions.
- BPF and vDSO updates to use the new instructions.
- Addition of a new HWCAP and exposure of BTI capability to userspace
via ID register emulation, along with ELF loader support for the
BTI feature in .note.gnu.property.
- Non-critical fixes to CFI unwind annotations in the sigreturn
trampoline.
Shadow Call Stack (SCS):
- Support for Clang's Shadow Call Stack feature, which reserves
platform register x18 to point at a separate stack for each task
that holds only return addresses. This protects function return
control flow from buffer overruns on the main stack.
- Save/restore of x18 across problematic boundaries (user-mode,
hypervisor, EFI, suspend, etc).
- Core support for SCS, should other architectures want to use it
too.
- SCS overflow checking on context-switch as part of the existing
stack limit check if CONFIG_SCHED_STACK_END_CHECK=y.
CPU feature detection:
- Removed numerous "SANITY CHECK" errors when running on a system
with mismatched AArch32 support at EL1. This is primarily a concern
for KVM, which disabled support for 32-bit guests on such a system.
- Addition of new ID registers and fields as the architecture has
been extended.
Perf and PMU drivers:
- Minor fixes and cleanups to system PMU drivers.
Hardware errata:
- Unify KVM workarounds for VHE and nVHE configurations.
- Sort vendor errata entries in Kconfig.
Secure Monitor Call Calling Convention (SMCCC):
- Update to the latest specification from Arm (v1.2).
- Allow PSCI code to query the SMCCC version.
Software Delegated Exception Interface (SDEI):
- Unexport a bunch of unused symbols.
- Minor fixes to handling of firmware data.
Pointer authentication:
- Add support for dumping the kernel PAC mask in vmcoreinfo so that
the stack can be unwound by tools such as kdump.
- Simplification of key initialisation during CPU bringup.
BPF backend:
- Improve immediate generation for logical and add/sub instructions.
vDSO:
- Minor fixes to the linker flags for consistency with other
architectures and support for LLVM's unwinder.
- Clean up logic to initialise and map the vDSO into userspace.
ACPI:
- Work around for an ambiguity in the IORT specification relating to
the "num_ids" field.
- Support _DMA method for all named components rather than only PCIe
root complexes.
- Minor other IORT-related fixes.
Miscellaneous:
- Initialise debug traps early for KGDB and fix KDB cacheflushing
deadlock.
- Minor tweaks to early boot state (documentation update, set
TEXT_OFFSET to 0x0, increase alignment of PE/COFF sections).
- Refactoring and cleanup"

Many devices have control registers which control some measurable
property. Often a register contains control field so that change in
this field causes linear change in the controlled property. It is not
a rare case that user wants to give 'meaningful' control values and
driver needs to convert them to register field values. Even more
often user wants to 'see' the currently set value - again in
meaningful units - and driver needs to convert the values it reads
from register to these meaningful units. Examples of this include:
- regulators, voltage/current configurations
- power, voltage/current configurations
- clk(?) NCOs
and maybe others I can't think of right now.
Provide a linear_range helper which can do conversion from user value
to register value 'selector'.
The idea here is stolen from regulator framework and patches refactoring
the regulator helpers to use this are following.
Current implementation does not support inversely proportional ranges
but it might be useful if we could support also inversely proportional
ranges?

The "sub-section memory hotplug" facility allows memremap_pages() users
like libnvdimm to compensate for hardware platforms like x86 that have a
section size larger than their hardware memory mapping granularity. The
compensation that sub-section support affords is being tolerant of
physical memory resources shifting by units smaller (64MiB on x86) than
the memory-hotplug section size (128 MiB). Where the platform
physical-memory mapping granularity is limited by the number and
capability of address-decode-registers in the memory controller.
While the sub-section support allows memremap_pages() to operate on
sub-section (2MiB) granularity, the Power architecture may still
require 16MiB alignment on "!radix_enabled()" platforms.
In order for libnvdimm to be able to detect and manage this per-arch
limitation, introduce memremap_compat_align() as a common minimum
alignment across all driver-facing memory-mapping interfaces, and let
Power override it to 16MiB in the "!radix_enabled()" case.
The assumption / requirement for 16MiB to be a viable
memremap_compat_align() value is that Power does not have platforms
where its equivalent of address-decode-registers never hardware remaps a
persistent memory resource on smaller than 16MiB boundaries. Note that I
tried my best to not add a new Kconfig symbol, but header include
entanglements defeated the #ifndef memremap_compat_align design pattern
and the need to export it defeats the __weak design pattern for arch
overrides.
Based on an initial patch by Aneesh.

Patch series "S390 hardware support for kernel zlib", v3.
With IBM z15 mainframe the new DFLTCC instruction is available. It
implements deflate algorithm in hardware (Nest Acceleration Unit - NXU)
with estimated compression and decompression performance orders of
magnitude faster than the current zlib.
This patchset adds s390 hardware compression support to kernel zlib.
The code is based on the userspace zlib implementation:
https://github.com/madler/zlib/pull/410
The coding style is also preserved for future maintainability. There is
only limited set of userspace zlib functions represented in kernel.
Apart from that, all the memory allocation should be performed in
advance. Thus, the workarea structures are extended with the parameter
lists required for the DEFLATE CONVENTION CALL instruction.
Since kernel zlib itself does not support gzip headers, only Adler-32
checksum is processed (also can be produced by DFLTCC facility). Like
it was implemented for userspace, kernel zlib will compress in hardware
on level 1, and in software on all other levels. Decompression will
always happen in hardware (when enabled).
Two DFLTCC compression calls produce the same results only when they
both are made on machines of the same generation, and when the
respective buffers have the same offset relative to the start of the
page. Therefore care should be taken when using hardware compression
when reproducible results are desired. However it does always produce
the standard conform output which can be inflated anyway.
The new kernel command line parameter 'dfltcc' is introduced to
configure s390 zlib hardware support:
Format: { on | off | def_only | inf_only | always }
on: s390 zlib hardware support for compression on
level 1 and decompression (default)
off: No s390 zlib hardware support
def_only: s390 zlib hardware support for deflate
only (compression on level 1)
inf_only: s390 zlib hardware support for inflate
only (decompression)
always: Same as 'on' but ignores the selected compression
level always using hardware support (used for debugging)
The main purpose of the integration of the NXU support into the kernel
zlib is the use of hardware deflate in btrfs filesystem with on-the-fly
compression enabled. Apart from that, hardware support can also be used
during boot for decompressing the kernel or the ramdisk image
With the patch for btrfs expanding zlib buffer from 1 to 4 pages (patch
6) the following performance results have been achieved using the
ramdisk with btrfs. These are relative numbers based on throughput rate
and compression ratio for zlib level 1:
Input data Deflate rate Inflate rate Compression ratio
NXU/Software NXU/Software NXU/Software
stream of zeroes 1.46 1.02 1.00
random ASCII data 10.44 3.00 0.96
ASCII text (dickens) 6,21 3.33 0.94
binary data (vmlinux) 8,37 3.90 1.02
This means that s390 hardware deflate can provide up to 10 times faster
compression (on level 1) and up to 4 times faster decompression (refers
to all compression levels) for btrfs zlib.
Disclaimer: Performance results are based on IBM internal tests using DD
command-line utility on btrfs on a Fedora 30 based internal driver in
native LPAR on a z15 system. Results may vary based on individual
workload, configuration and software levels.
This patch (of 9):
Create zlib_dfltcc library with the s390 DEFLATE CONVERSION CALL
implementation and related compression functions. Update zlib_deflate
functions with the hooks for s390 hardware support and adjust workspace
structures with extra parameter lists required for hardware deflate.

Extra Boot Config (XBC) allows admin to pass a tree-structured
boot configuration file when boot up the kernel. This extends
the kernel command line in an efficient way.
Boot config will contain some key-value commands, e.g.
key.word = value1
another.key.word = value2
It can fold same keys with braces, also you can write array
data. For example,
key {
word1 {
setting1 = data
setting2
}
word2.array = "val1", "val2"
}
User can access these key-value pair and tree structure via
SKC APIs.
