generate crash dump even with slow consoles in a reasonable time
frame.

Pull exit cleanups from Eric Biederman:
"In preparation of doing something about PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT I have
started cleaning up various pieces of code related to do_exit. Most of
that code I did not manage to get tested and reviewed before the merge
window opened but a handful of very useful cleanups are ready to be
merged.
The first change is simply the removal of the bdflush system call. The
code has now been disabled long enough that even the oldest userspace
working userspace setups anyone can find to test are fine with the
bdflush system call being removed.
Changing m68k fsp040_die to use force_sigsegv(SIGSEGV) instead of
calling do_exit directly is interesting only in that it is nearly the
most difficult of the incorrect uses of do_exit to remove.
The change to the seccomp code to simply send a signal instead of
calling do_coredump directly is a very nice little cleanup made
possible by realizing the existing signal sending helpers were missing
a little bit of functionality that is easy to provide"

The .map_sg() op now expects an error code instead of zero on failure.
In the case of a dma_mapping_error() return -EIO as the actual cause
is opaque here.
sba_coalesce_chunks() may only presently fail if sba_alloc_range()
fails, which in turn only fails if the iommu is out of mapping
resources, hence a -ENOMEM is used in that case.

The arch-specific Kconfig files use HAVE_IDE to indicate if IDE is
supported.
As IDE support and the HAVE_IDE config vanishes with commit b7fb14d3ac63
("ide: remove the legacy ide driver"), there is no need to mention
HAVE_IDE in all those arch-specific Kconfig files.

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.

We have a number of systems industry-wide that have a subset of their
functionality that works as follows:
1. Receive a message from local kmsg, serial console, or netconsole;
2. Apply a set of rules to classify the message;
3. Do something based on this classification (like scheduling a
remediation for the machine), rinse, and repeat.
As a couple of examples of places we have this implemented just inside
Facebook, although this isn't a Facebook-specific problem, we have this
inside our netconsole processing (for alarm classification), and as part
of our machine health checking. We use these messages to determine
fairly important metrics around production health, and it's important
that we get them right.
While for some kinds of issues we have counters, tracepoints, or metrics
with a stable interface which can reliably indicate the issue, in order
to react to production issues quickly we need to work with the interface
which most kernel developers naturally use when developing: printk.
Most production issues come from unexpected phenomena, and as such
usually the code in question doesn't have easily usable tracepoints or
other counters available for the specific problem being mitigated. We
have a number of lines of monitoring defence against problems in
production (host metrics, process metrics, service metrics, etc), and
where it's not feasible to reliably monitor at another level, this kind
of pragmatic netconsole monitoring is essential.
As one would expect, monitoring using printk is rather brittle for a
number of reasons -- most notably that the message might disappear
entirely in a new version of the kernel, or that the message may change
in some way that the regex or other classification methods start to
silently fail.
One factor that makes this even harder is that, under normal operation,
many of these messages are never expected to be hit. For example, there
may be a rare hardware bug which one wants to detect if it was to ever
happen again, but its recurrence is not likely or anticipated. This
precludes using something like checking whether the printk in question
was printed somewhere fleetwide recently to determine whether the
message in question is still present or not, since we don't anticipate
that it should be printed anywhere, but still need to monitor for its
future presence in the long-term.
This class of issue has happened on a number of occasions, causing
unhealthy machines with hardware issues to remain in production for
longer than ideal. As a recent example, some monitoring around
blk_update_request fell out of date and caused semi-broken machines to
remain in production for longer than would be desirable.
Searching through the codebase to find the message is also extremely
fragile, because many of the messages are further constructed beyond
their callsite (eg. btrfs_printk and other module-specific wrappers,
each with their own functionality). Even if they aren't, guessing the
format and formulation of the underlying message based on the aesthetics
of the message emitted is not a recipe for success at scale, and our
previous issues with fleetwide machine health checking demonstrate as
much.
This provides a solution to the issue of silently changed or deleted
printks: we record pointers to all printk format strings known at
compile time into a new .printk_index section, both in vmlinux and
modules. At runtime, this can then be iterated by looking at
<debugfs>/printk/index/<module>, which emits the following format, both
readable by humans and able to be parsed by machines:
$ head -1 vmlinux; shuf -n 5 vmlinux
# <level[,flags]> filename:line function "format"
<5> block/blk-settings.c:661 disk_stack_limits "%s: Warning: Device %s is misaligned\n"
<4> kernel/trace/trace.c:8296 trace_create_file "Could not create tracefs '%s' entry\n"
<6> arch/x86/kernel/hpet.c:144 _hpet_print_config "hpet: %s(%d):\n"
<6> init/do_mounts.c:605 prepare_namespace "Waiting for root device %s...\n"
<6> drivers/acpi/osl.c:1410 acpi_no_auto_serialize_setup "ACPI: auto-serialization disabled\n"
This mitigates the majority of cases where we have a highly-specific
printk which we want to match on, as we can now enumerate and check
whether the format changed or the printk callsite disappeared entirely
in userspace. This allows us to catch changes to printks we monitor
earlier and decide what to do about it before it becomes problematic.
There is no additional runtime cost for printk callers or printk itself,
and the assembly generated is exactly the same.

The bdflush system call has been deprecated for a very long time.
Recently Michael Schmitz tested[1] and found that the last known
caller of of the bdflush system call is unaffected by it's removal.
Since the code is not needed delete it.

Pull asm/unaligned.h unification from Arnd Bergmann:
"Unify asm/unaligned.h around struct helper
The get_unaligned()/put_unaligned() helpers are traditionally
architecture specific, with the two main variants being the
"access-ok.h" version that assumes unaligned pointer accesses always
work on a particular architecture, and the "le-struct.h" version that
casts the data to a byte aligned type before dereferencing, for
architectures that cannot always do unaligned accesses in hardware.
Based on the discussion linked below, it appears that the access-ok
version is not realiable on any architecture, but the struct version
probably has no downsides. This series changes the code to use the
same implementation on all architectures, addressing the few
exceptions separately"

kernel.h is being used as a dump for all kinds of stuff for a long time.
Here is the attempt to start cleaning it up by splitting out panic and
oops helpers.
There are several purposes of doing this:
- dropping dependency in bug.h
- dropping a loop by moving out panic_notifier.h
- unload kernel.h from something which has its own domain
At the same time convert users tree-wide to use new headers, although for
the time being include new header back to kernel.h to avoid twisted
indirected includes for existing users.

Currently most platforms define pmd_pgtable() as pmd_page() duplicating
the same code all over. Instead just define a default value i.e
pmd_page() for pmd_pgtable() and let platforms override when required via
<asm/pgtable.h>. All the existing platform that override pmd_pgtable()
have been moved into their respective <asm/pgtable.h> header in order to
precede before the new generic definition. This makes it much cleaner
with reduced code.

Also only x86/arm64 architectures could enable both ZONE_DMA and
ZONE_DMA32 if EXPERT, add ARCH_HAS_ZONE_DMA_SET to make dma zone
configurable and visible on the two architectures.

gcc points out a mistake in the mca driver that goes back to before the
git history:
arch/ia64/kernel/mca_drv.c: In function 'init_record_index_pools':
arch/ia64/kernel/mca_drv.c:346:54: error: expression does not compute the number of elements in this array; element typ
e is 'int', not 'size_t' {aka 'long unsigned int'} [-Werror=sizeof-array-div]
346 | for (i = 1; i < sizeof sal_log_sect_min_sizes/sizeof(size_t); i++)
| ^
This is the same as sizeof(size_t), which is two shorter than the actual
array. Use the ARRAY_SIZE() macro to get the correct calculation instead.

Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
"There's a reasonable amount here and the juicy details are all below.
It's worth noting that the MTE/KASAN changes strayed outside of our
usual directories due to core mm changes and some associated changes
to some other architectures; Andrew asked for us to carry these [1]
rather that take them via the -mm tree.
Summary:
- Optimise SVE switching for CPUs with 128-bit implementations.
- Fix output format from SVE selftest.
- Add support for versions v1.2 and 1.3 of the SMC calling
convention.
- Allow Pointer Authentication to be configured independently for
kernel and userspace.
- PMU driver cleanups for managing IRQ affinity and exposing event
attributes via sysfs.
- KASAN optimisations for both hardware tagging (MTE) and out-of-line
software tagging implementations.
- Relax frame record alignment requirements to facilitate 8-byte
alignment with KASAN and Clang.
- Cleanup of page-table definitions and removal of unused memory
types.
- Reduction of ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN back to 64 bytes.
- Refactoring of our instruction decoding routines and addition of
some missing encodings.
- Move entry code moved into C and hardened against harmful compiler
instrumentation.
- Update booting requirements for the FEAT_HCX feature, added to v8.7
of the architecture.
- Fix resume from idle when pNMI is being used.
- Additional CPU sanity checks for MTE and preparatory changes for
systems where not all of the CPUs support 32-bit EL0.
- Update our kernel string routines to the latest Cortex Strings
implementation.
- Big cleanup of our cache maintenance routines, which were
confusingly named and inconsistent in their implementations.
- Tweak linker flags so that GDB can understand vmlinux when using
RELR relocations.
- Boot path cleanups to enable early initialisation of per-cpu
operations needed by KCSAN.
- Non-critical fixes and miscellaneous cleanup"

Pull scheduler udpates from Ingo Molnar:
- Changes to core scheduling facilities:
- Add "Core Scheduling" via CONFIG_SCHED_CORE=y, which enables
coordinated scheduling across SMT siblings. This is a much
requested feature for cloud computing platforms, to allow the
flexible utilization of SMT siblings, without exposing untrusted
domains to information leaks & side channels, plus to ensure more
deterministic computing performance on SMT systems used by
heterogenous workloads.
There are new prctls to set core scheduling groups, which allows
more flexible management of workloads that can share siblings.
- Fix task->state access anti-patterns that may result in missed
wakeups and rename it to ->__state in the process to catch new
abuses.
- Load-balancing changes:
- Tweak newidle_balance for fair-sched, to improve 'memcache'-like
workloads.
- "Age" (decay) average idle time, to better track & improve
workloads such as 'tbench'.
- Fix & improve energy-aware (EAS) balancing logic & metrics.
- Fix & improve the uclamp metrics.
- Fix task migration (taskset) corner case on !CONFIG_CPUSET.
- Fix RT and deadline utilization tracking across policy changes
- Introduce a "burstable" CFS controller via cgroups, which allows
bursty CPU-bound workloads to borrow a bit against their future
quota to improve overall latencies & batching. Can be tweaked via
/sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/<X>/cpu.cfs_burst_us.
- Rework assymetric topology/capacity detection & handling.
- Scheduler statistics & tooling:
- Disable delayacct by default, but add a sysctl to enable it at
runtime if tooling needs it. Use static keys and other
optimizations to make it more palatable.
- Use sched_clock() in delayacct, instead of ktime_get_ns().
- Misc cleanups and fixes.

In an upcoming change we would like to add a flag to
GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE so that it would no longer be an OR
of GFP_HIGHUSER and __GFP_MOVABLE. This poses a problem for
alloc_zeroed_user_highpage_movable() which passes __GFP_MOVABLE
into an arch-specific __alloc_zeroed_user_highpage() hook which ORs
in GFP_HIGHUSER.
Since __alloc_zeroed_user_highpage() is only ever called from
alloc_zeroed_user_highpage_movable(), we can remove one level
of indirection here. Remove __alloc_zeroed_user_highpage(),
make alloc_zeroed_user_highpage_movable() the hook, and use
GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE in the hook implementations so that they will
pick up the new flag that we are going to add.

Kprobes has a counter 'nmissed', that is used to count the number of
times a probe handler was not called. This generally happens when we hit
a kprobe while handling another kprobe.
However, if one of the probe handlers causes a fault, we are currently
incrementing 'nmissed'. The comment in fault handler indicates that this
can be used to account faults taken by the probe handlers. But, this has
never been the intention as is evident from the comment above 'nmissed'
in 'struct kprobe':
/*count the number of times this probe was temporarily disarmed */
unsigned long nmissed;

The reason for kprobe::fault_handler(), as given by their comment:
* We come here because instructions in the pre/post
* handler caused the page_fault, this could happen
* if handler tries to access user space by
* copy_from_user(), get_user() etc. Let the
* user-specified handler try to fix it first.
Is just plain bad. Those other handlers are ran from non-preemptible
context and had better use _nofault() functions. Also, there is no
upstream usage of this.
