commit 9f5ba4b3e1b3c123eeca5d2d09161e8720048b5c upstream.
The lscpu command is broken since commit cab56b51ec0e ("parisc: Fix
device names in /proc/iomem") added the PA pathname to all PA
devices, includig the CPUs.
lscpu parses /proc/cpuinfo and now believes it found different CPU
types since every CPU is listed with an unique identifier (PA
pathname).
Fix this problem by simply dropping the PA pathname when listing the
CPUs in /proc/cpuinfo. There is no need to show the pathname in this
procfs file.

commit 567b35159e76997e95b643b9a8a5d9d2198f2522 upstream.
This change simplifies the randomization of file mapping regions. It
reworks the code to remove duplication. The flow is now similar to
that for mips. Finally, we consistently use the do_color_align variable
to determine when color alignment is needed.
Tested on rp3440.

commit ea3f8272876f2958463992f6736ab690fde7fa9c upstream.
In commit 8d7071af8907 ("mm: always expand the stack with the mmap write
lock held") I tried to deal with the remaining odd page fault handling
cases. The oddest one is ia64, which has stacks that grow both up and
down. And because ia64 was _so_ odd, I asked people to verify the end
result.
But a close second oddity is parisc, which is the only one that has a
main stack growing up (our "CONFIG_STACK_GROWSUP" config option). But
it looked obvious enough that I didn't worry about it.
I should have worried a bit more. Not because it was particularly
complex, but because I just used the wrong variable name.
The previous vma isn't called "prev", it's called "prev_vma". Blush.

commit 8d7071af890768438c14db6172cc8f9f4d04e184 upstream
This finishes the job of always holding the mmap write lock when
extending the user stack vma, and removes the 'write_locked' argument
from the vm helper functions again.
For some cases, we just avoid expanding the stack at all: drivers and
page pinning really shouldn't be extending any stacks. Let's see if any
strange users really wanted that.
It's worth noting that architectures that weren't converted to the new
lock_mm_and_find_vma() helper function are left using the legacy
"expand_stack()" function, but it has been changed to drop the mmap_lock
and take it for writing while expanding the vma. This makes it fairly
straightforward to convert the remaining architectures.
As a result of dropping and re-taking the lock, the calling conventions
for this function have also changed, since the old vma may no longer be
valid. So it will now return the new vma if successful, and NULL - and
the lock dropped - if the area could not be extended.

commit 61e150fb310729c98227a5edf6e4a3619edc3702 upstream.
Since at least kernel 6.1, flush_dcache_page() is called with IRQs
disabled, e.g. from aio_complete().
But the current implementation for flush_dcache_page() on parisc
unintentionally re-enables IRQs, which may lead to deadlocks.
Fix it by using xa_lock_irqsave() and xa_unlock_irqrestore()
for the flush_dcache_mmap_*lock() macros instead.

[ Upstream commit 829632dae8321787525ee37dc4828bbe6edafdae ]
The panic notifiers' callbacks execute in an atomic context, with
interrupts/preemption disabled, and all CPUs not running the panic
function are off, so it's very dangerous to wait on a regular
spinlock, there's a risk of deadlock.
Refactor the panic notifier of parisc/power driver to make use
of spin_trylock - for that, we've added a second version of the
soft-power function. Also, some comments were reorganized and
trailing white spaces, useless header inclusion and blank lines
were removed.

commit d755bd2caeb47fd806e12399fe8b56798fa5d2cc upstream.
Matthew Wilcox noticed, that if ARCH_HAS_FLUSH_ON_KUNMAP is defined
(which is the case for PA-RISC), __kunmap_local() calls
kunmap_flush_on_unmap(), which may call the parisc flush functions with
a non-page-aligned address and thus the page might not be fully flushed.
This patch ensures that flush_kernel_dcache_page_asm() and
flush_kernel_dcache_page_asm() will always operate on page-aligned
addresses.

commit 71bdea6f798b425bc0003780b13e3fdecb16a010 upstream.
Adjust some MADV_XXX constants to be in sync what their values are on
all other platforms. There is currently no reason to have an own
numbering on parisc, but it requires workarounds in many userspace
sources (e.g. glibc, qemu, ...) - which are often forgotten and thus
introduce bugs and different behaviour on parisc.
A wrapper avoids an ABI breakage for existing userspace applications by
translating any old values to the new ones, so this change allows us to
move over all programs to the new ABI over time.

Pull more random number generator updates from Jason Donenfeld:
"This time with some large scale treewide cleanups.
The intent of this pull is to clean up the way callers fetch random
integers. The current rules for doing this right are:
- If you want a secure or an insecure random u64, use get_random_u64()
- If you want a secure or an insecure random u32, use get_random_u32()
The old function prandom_u32() has been deprecated for a while
now and is just a wrapper around get_random_u32(). Same for
get_random_int().
- If you want a secure or an insecure random u16, use get_random_u16()
- If you want a secure or an insecure random u8, use get_random_u8()
- If you want secure or insecure random bytes, use get_random_bytes().
The old function prandom_bytes() has been deprecated for a while
now and has long been a wrapper around get_random_bytes()
- If you want a non-uniform random u32, u16, or u8 bounded by a
certain open interval maximum, use prandom_u32_max()
I say "non-uniform", because it doesn't do any rejection sampling
or divisions. Hence, it stays within the prandom_*() namespace, not
the get_random_*() namespace.
I'm currently investigating a "uniform" function for 6.2. We'll see
what comes of that.
By applying these rules uniformly, we get several benefits:
- By using prandom_u32_max() with an upper-bound that the compiler
can prove at compile-time is ≤65536 or ≤256, internally
get_random_u16() or get_random_u8() is used, which wastes fewer
batched random bytes, and hence has higher throughput.
- By using prandom_u32_max() instead of %, when the upper-bound is
not a constant, division is still avoided, because
prandom_u32_max() uses a faster multiplication-based trick instead.
- By using get_random_u16() or get_random_u8() in cases where the
return value is intended to indeed be a u16 or a u8, we waste fewer
batched random bytes, and hence have higher throughput.
This series was originally done by hand while I was on an airplane
without Internet. Later, Kees and I worked on retroactively figuring
out what could be done with Coccinelle and what had to be done
manually, and then we split things up based on that.
So while this touches a lot of files, the actual amount of code that's
hand fiddled is comfortably small"

|
|
Commit df24e1783e6e ("parisc: Add vDSO support") introduced the vDSO
support, for which a _PAGE_SPECIAL page table flag was needed. Since we
wanted to keep every page table entry in 32-bits, this patch re-used the
existing - but yet unused - _PAGE_DMB flag (which triggers a hardware break
if a page is accessed) to store the special bit.
But when graphics card memory is mmapped into userspace, the kernel uses
vm_iomap_memory() which sets the the special flag. So, with the DMB bit
set, every access to the graphics memory now triggered a hardware
exception and segfaulted the userspace program.
Fix this breakage by dropping the DMB bit when writing the page
protection bits to the CPU TLB.
In addition this patch adds a small optimization: if huge pages aren't
configured (which is at least the case for 32-bit kernels), then the
special bit is stored in the hpage (HUGE PAGE) bit instead. That way we
can skip to reset the DMB bit.

The prandom_u32() function has been a deprecated inline wrapper around
get_random_u32() for several releases now, and compiles down to the
exact same code. Replace the deprecated wrapper with a direct call to
the real function. The same also applies to get_random_int(), which is
just a wrapper around get_random_u32(). This was done as a basic find
and replace.

the minimum required bytes from the RNG and avoids divisions. This was
done mechanically with this coccinelle script:

expression E;
type T;
identifier get_random_u32 =~ "get_random_int|prandom_u32|get_random_u32";

The values stored in the length and condition fields of the alternative
tables fit into 16 bits, so we can save 4 bytes per alternative table

Since a typical 32-bit kernel has more than 3000 entries this
saves > 12k of storage on disc.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- Yu Zhao's Multi-Gen LRU patches are here. They've been under test in
linux-next for a couple of months without, to my knowledge, any
negative reports (or any positive ones, come to that).
- Also the Maple Tree from Liam Howlett. An overlapping range-based
tree for vmas. It it apparently slightly more efficient in its own
right, but is mainly targeted at enabling work to reduce mmap_lock
contention.
Liam has identified a number of other tree users in the kernel which
could be beneficially onverted to mapletrees.
Yu Zhao has identified a hard-to-hit but "easy to fix" lockdep splat
at [1]. This has yet to be addressed due to Liam's unfortunately
timed vacation. He is now back and we'll get this fixed up.
- Dmitry Vyukov introduces KMSAN: the Kernel Memory Sanitizer. It uses
clang-generated instrumentation to detect used-unintialized bugs down
to the single bit level.
KMSAN keeps finding bugs. New ones, as well as the legacy ones.
- Yang Shi adds a userspace mechanism (madvise) to induce a collapse of
memory into THPs.
- Zach O'Keefe has expanded Yang Shi's madvise(MADV_COLLAPSE) to
support file/shmem-backed pages.
- userfaultfd updates from Axel Rasmussen
- zsmalloc cleanups from Alexey Romanov

Kbuild puts the objects listed in head-y at the head of vmlinux.
Conventionally, we do this for head*.S, which contains the kernel entry
point.
A counter approach is to control the section order by the linker script.
Actually, the code marked as __HEAD goes into the ".head.text" section,
which is placed before the normal ".text" section.
I do not know if both of them are needed. From the build system
perspective, head-y is not mandatory. If you can achieve the proper code
placement by the linker script only, it would be cleaner.
I collected the current head-y objects into head-object-list.txt. It is
a whitelist. My hope is it will be reduced in the long run.

The objects placed at the head of vmlinux need special treatments:
- arch/$(SRCARCH)/Makefile adds them to head-y in order to place
them before other archives in the linker command line.
- arch/$(SRCARCH)/kernel/Makefile adds them to extra-y instead of
obj-y to avoid them going into built-in.a.
This commit gets rid of the latter.
Create vmlinux.a to collect all the objects that are unconditionally
linked to vmlinux. The objects listed in head-y are moved to the head
of vmlinux.a by using 'ar m'.
With this, arch/$(SRCARCH)/kernel/Makefile can consistently use obj-y
for builtin objects.
There is no *.o that is directly linked to vmlinux. Drop unneeded code
in scripts/clang-tools/gen_compile_commands.py.
$(AR) mPi needs 'T' to workaround the llvm-ar bug. The fix was suggested
by Nathan Chancellor [1].

The previous patch triggered a build failure for the debian kernel,
which has CONFIG_64BIT enabled, uses the CROSS_COMPILER environment
variable and uses ARCH=parisc to configure the kernel for 64-bit
support.
This patch weakens the previous patch while keeping the recommended way
to configure the kernel with:
ARCH=parisc -> build 32-bit kernel
ARCH=parisc64 -> build 64-bit kernel
while adding the possibility for debian to configure a 64-bit kernel
even if ARCH=parisc is set (PA8X00 CPU has to be selected and
CONFIG_64BIT needs to be enabled).
The downside of this patch is, that we now have a small window open
again where people may get it wrong: if they enable CONFIG_64BIT and try
to compile with a 32-bit compiler.

This idea was introduced by David Rientjes[1].
Introduce a new madvise mode, MADV_COLLAPSE, that allows users to request
a synchronous collapse of memory at their own expense.
The benefits of this approach are:
* CPU is charged to the process that wants to spend the cycles for the
THP
* Avoid unpredictable timing of khugepaged collapse
Semantics
This call is independent of the system-wide THP sysfs settings, but will
fail for memory marked VM_NOHUGEPAGE. If the ranges provided span
multiple VMAs, the semantics of the collapse over each VMA is independent
from the others. This implies a hugepage cannot cross a VMA boundary. If
collapse of a given hugepage-aligned/sized region fails, the operation may
continue to attempt collapsing the remainder of memory specified.
The memory ranges provided must be page-aligned, but are not required to
be hugepage-aligned. If the memory ranges are not hugepage-aligned, the
start/end of the range will be clamped to the first/last hugepage-aligned
address covered by said range. The memory ranges must span at least one
hugepage-sized region.
All non-resident pages covered by the range will first be
swapped/faulted-in, before being internally copied onto a freshly
allocated hugepage. Unmapped pages will have their data directly
initialized to 0 in the new hugepage. However, for every eligible
hugepage aligned/sized region to-be collapsed, at least one page must
currently be backed by memory (a PMD covering the address range must
already exist).
Allocation for the new hugepage may enter direct reclaim and/or
compaction, regardless of VMA flags. When the system has multiple NUMA
nodes, the hugepage will be allocated from the node providing the most
native pages. This operation operates on the current state of the
specified process and makes no persistent changes or guarantees on how
pages will be mapped, constructed, or faulted in the future
Return Value
If all hugepage-sized/aligned regions covered by the provided range were
either successfully collapsed, or were already PMD-mapped THPs, this
operation will be deemed successful. On success, process_madvise(2)
returns the number of bytes advised, and madvise(2) returns 0. Else, -1
is returned and errno is set to indicate the error for the most-recently
attempted hugepage collapse. Note that many failures might have occurred,
since the operation may continue to collapse in the event a single
hugepage-sized/aligned region fails.
ENOMEM Memory allocation failed or VMA not found
EBUSY Memcg charging failed
EAGAIN Required resource temporarily unavailable. Try again
might succeed.
EINVAL Other error: No PMD found, subpage doesn't have Present
bit set, "Special" page no backed by struct page, VMA
incorrectly sized, address not page-aligned, ...
Most notable here is ENOMEM and EBUSY (new to madvise) which are intended
to provide the caller with actionable feedback so they may take an
appropriate fallback measure.
Use Cases
An immediate user of this new functionality are malloc() implementations
that manage memory in hugepage-sized chunks, but sometimes subrelease
memory back to the system in native-sized chunks via MADV_DONTNEED;
zapping the pmd. Later, when the memory is hot, the implementation could
madvise(MADV_COLLAPSE) to re-back the memory by THPs to regain hugepage
coverage and dTLB performance. TCMalloc is such an implementation that
could benefit from this[2].
Only privately-mapped anon memory is supported for now, but additional
support for file, shmem, and HugeTLB high-granularity mappings[2] is
expected. File and tmpfs/shmem support would permit:
* Backing executable text by THPs. Current support provided by
CONFIG_READ_ONLY_THP_FOR_FS may take a long time on a large system which
might impair services from serving at their full rated load after
(re)starting. Tricks like mremap(2)'ing text onto anonymous memory to
immediately realize iTLB performance prevents page sharing and demand
paging, both of which increase steady state memory footprint. With
MADV_COLLAPSE, we get the best of both worlds: Peak upfront performance
and lower RAM footprints.
* Backing guest memory by hugapages after the memory contents have been
migrated in native-page-sized chunks to a new host, in a
userfaultfd-based live-migration stack.
