384a746bb5 Revert "mm: init_mlocked_on_free_v3"
There was insufficient review and no agreement that this is the right
approach.

There are serious flaws with the implementation that make processes using
mlock() not even work with simple fork() [1] and we get reliable crashes
when rebooting.

Further, simply because we might be unmapping a single PTE of a large
mlocked folio, we shouldn't zero out the whole folio.

... especially because the code can also *corrupt* urelated memory because
	kernel_init_pages(page, folio_nr_pages(folio));

Could end up writing outside of the actual folio if we work with a tail
page.

Let's revert it.  Once there is agreement that this is the right approach,
the issues were fixed and there was reasonable review and proper testing,
we can consider it again.

0b178b0267 platform/x86: touchscreen_dmi: Add support for setting touchscreen properties from cmdline
On x86/ACPI platforms touchscreens mostly just work without needing any
device/model specific configuration. But in some cases (mostly with Silead
and Goodix touchscreens) it is still necessary to manually specify various
touchscreen-properties on a per model basis.

touchscreen_dmi is a special place for DMI quirks for this, but it can be
challenging for users to figure out the right property values, especially
for Silead touchscreens where non of these can be read back from
the touchscreen-controller.

ATM users can only test touchscreen properties by editing touchscreen_dmi.c
and then building a completely new kernel which makes it unnecessary
difficult for users to test and submit properties when necessary for their
laptop / tablet model.

Add support for specifying properties on the kernel commandline to allow
users to easily figure out the right settings. See the added documentation
in kernel-parameters.txt for the commandline syntax.

f6b8e86b7a TTY/Serial changes for 6.10-rc1
Here is the big set of tty/serial driver changes for 6.10-rc1.  Included
 in here are:
   - Usual good set of api cleanups and evolution by Jiri Slaby to make
     the serial interfaces move out of the 1990's by using kfifos instead
     of hand-rolling their own logic.
   - 8250_exar driver updates
   - max3100 driver updates
   - sc16is7xx driver updates
   - exar driver updates
   - sh-sci driver updates
   - tty ldisc api addition to help refuse bindings
   - other smaller serial driver updates
 
 All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
 issues.

9776dd3609 X86 interrupt handling update:
Support for posted interrupts on bare metal
 
     Posted interrupts is a virtualization feature which allows to inject
     interrupts directly into a guest without host interaction. The VT-d
     interrupt remapping hardware sets the bit which corresponds to the
     interrupt vector in a vector bitmap which is either used to inject the
     interrupt directly into the guest via a virtualized APIC or in case
     that the guest is scheduled out provides a host side notification
     interrupt which informs the host that an interrupt has been marked
     pending in the bitmap.
 
     This can be utilized on bare metal for scenarios where multiple
     devices, e.g. NVME storage, raise interrupts with a high frequency.  In
     the default mode these interrupts are handles independently and
     therefore require a full roundtrip of interrupt entry/exit.
 
     Utilizing posted interrupts this roundtrip overhead can be avoided by
     coalescing these interrupt entries to a single entry for the posted
     interrupt notification. The notification interrupt then demultiplexes
     the pending bits in a memory based bitmap and invokes the corresponding
     device specific handlers.
 
     Depending on the usage scenario and device utilization throughput
     improvements between 10% and 130% have been measured.
 
     As this is only relevant for high end servers with multiple device
     queues per CPU attached and counterproductive for situations where
     interrupts are arriving at distinct times, the functionality is opt-in
     via a kernel command line parameter.

393fb313a2 watchdog: allow nmi watchdog to use raw perf event
NMI watchdog permanently consumes one hardware counters per CPU on the
system.  For systems that use many hardware counters, this causes more
aggressive time multiplexing of perf events.

OTOH, some CPUs (mostly Intel) support "ref-cycles" event, which is rarely
used.  Add kernel cmdline arg nmi_watchdog=rNNN to configure the watchdog
to use raw event.  For example, on Intel CPUs, we can use "r300" to
configure the watchdog to use ref-cycles event.

If the raw event does not work, fall back to use "cycles".

Previously we claimed "pcie_aspm=off" meant that ASPM would be disabled,
which is wrong.

Correct this to say that with "pcie_aspm=off", Linux doesn't touch any ASPM
configuration at all.  ASPM may have been enabled by firmware, and that
will be left unchanged.  See "aspm_support_enabled".

ba42b524a0 mm: init_mlocked_on_free_v3
Implements the "init_mlocked_on_free" boot option. When this boot option
is enabled, any mlock'ed pages are zeroed on free. If
the pages are munlock'ed beforehand, no initialization takes place.
This boot option is meant to combat the performance hit of
"init_on_free" as reported in commit 6471384af2 ("mm: security:
introduce init_on_alloc=1 and init_on_free=1 boot options"). With
"init_mlocked_on_free=1" only relevant data is freed while everything
else is left untouched by the kernel. Correspondingly, this patch
introduces no performance hit for unmapping non-mlock'ed memory. The
unmapping overhead for purely mlocked memory was measured to be
approximately 13%. Realistically, most systems mlock only a fraction of
the total memory so the real-world system overhead should be close to
zero.

Optimally, userspace programs clear any key material or other
confidential memory before exit and munlock the according memory
regions. If a program crashes, userspace key managers fail to do this
job. Accordingly, no munlock operations are performed so the data is
caught and zeroed by the kernel. Should the program not crash, all
memory will ideally be munlocked so no overhead is caused.

CONFIG_INIT_MLOCKED_ON_FREE_DEFAULT_ON can be set to enable
"init_mlocked_on_free" by default.

ce0abef6a1 cpu: Ignore "mitigations" kernel parameter if CPU_MITIGATIONS=n
Explicitly disallow enabling mitigations at runtime for kernels that were
built with CONFIG_CPU_MITIGATIONS=n, as some architectures may omit code
entirely if mitigations are disabled at compile time.

E.g. on x86, a large pile of Kconfigs are buried behind CPU_MITIGATIONS,
and trying to provide sane behavior for retroactively enabling mitigations
is extremely difficult, bordering on impossible.  E.g. page table isolation
and call depth tracking require build-time support, BHI mitigations will
still be off without additional kernel parameters, etc.

b413f9cd4c mm: Update shuffle documentation to match its current state
Commit 839195352d ("mm/shuffle: remove dynamic reconfiguration")
removed the dynamic reconfiguration capabilities from the shuffle page
allocator. This means that, now, we don't have any perspective of an
"autodetection of memory-side-cache" that triggers the enablement of the
shuffle page allocator.

Therefore, let the documentation reflect that the only way to enable
the shuffle page allocator is by setting `page_alloc.shuffle=1`.

54f2ecc318 s390: Map kernel at fixed location when KASLR is disabled
Since kernel virtual and physical address spaces are
uncoupled the kernel is mapped at the top of the virtual
address space in case KASLR is disabled.

That does not pose any issue with regard to the kernel
booting and operation, but makes it difficult to use a
generated vmlinux with some debugging tools (e.g. gdb),
because the exact location of the kernel image in virtual
memory is unknown. Make that location known and introduce
CONFIG_KERNEL_IMAGE_BASE configuration option.

A custom CONFIG_KERNEL_IMAGE_BASE value that would break
the virtual memory layout leads to a build error.

The kernel image size is defined by KERNEL_IMAGE_SIZE
macro and set to 512 MB, by analogy with x86.

988f569ae0 rcu: Reduce synchronize_rcu() latency
A call to a synchronize_rcu() can be optimized from a latency
point of view. Workloads which depend on this can benefit of it.

The delay of wakeme_after_rcu() callback, which unblocks a waiter,
depends on several factors:

- how fast a process of offloading is started. Combination of:
    - !CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU/CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU;
    - !CONFIG_RCU_LAZY/CONFIG_RCU_LAZY;
    - other.
- when started, invoking path is interrupted due to:
    - time limit;
    - need_resched();
    - if limit is reached.
- where in a nocb list it is located;
- how fast previous callbacks completed;

Example:

1. On our embedded devices i can easily trigger the scenario when

2. We use cpuset/cgroup to classify tasks and assign them into
different cgroups. For example "backgrond" group which binds tasks
only to little CPUs or "foreground" which makes use of all CPUs.
Tasks can be migrated between groups by a request if an acceleration
is needed.

See below an example how "surfaceflinger" task gets migrated.
Initially it is located in the "system-background" cgroup which
allows to run only on little cores. In order to speed it up it
can be temporary moved into "foreground" cgroup which allows
to use big/all CPUs:

cgroup_attach_task():
 -> cgroup_migrate_execute()
   -> cpuset_can_attach()
     -> percpu_down_write()
       -> rcu_sync_enter()
         -> synchronize_rcu()
   -> now move tasks to the new cgroup.
 -> cgroup_migrate_finish()

<snip>
         rcuop/1-29      [000] .....  7030.528570: rcu_invoke_callback: rcu_preempt rhp=00000000461605e0 func=wakeme_after_rcu.cfi_jt

<snip>

"Boosting a task" depends on synchronize_rcu() latency:

- first trace shows a completion of synchronize_rcu();
- second shows attaching a task to a new group;
- last shows a final step when migration occurs.

3. To address this drawback, maintain a separate track that consists
of synchronize_rcu() callers only. After completion of a grace period
users are deferred to a dedicated worker to process requests.

4. This patch reduces the latency of synchronize_rcu() approximately
by ~30-40% on synthetic tests. The real test case, camera launch time,
shows(time is in milliseconds):

1-run 542 vs 489 improvement 9%
2-run 540 vs 466 improvement 13%
3-run 518 vs 468 improvement 9%
4-run 531 vs 457 improvement 13%
5-run 548 vs 475 improvement 13%
6-run 509 vs 484 improvement 4%

Synthetic test(no "noise" from other callbacks):
Hardware: x86_64 64 CPUs, 64GB of memory
Linux-6.6

- 10K tasks(simultaneous);
- each task does(1000 loops)
     synchronize_rcu();
     kfree(p);

default: CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU: takes 54 seconds to complete all users;
patch: CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU: takes 35 seconds to complete all users.

Running 60K gives approximately same results on my setup. Please note
it is without any interaction with another type of callbacks, otherwise
it will impact a lot a default case.

5. By default it is disabled. To enable this perform one of the
below sequence:

echo 1 > /sys/module/rcutree/parameters/rcu_normal_wake_from_gp
or pass a boot parameter "rcutree.rcu_normal_wake_from_gp=1"

BHI mitigation mode spectre_bhi=auto does not deploy the software
mitigation by default. In a cloud environment, it is a likely scenario
where userspace is trusted but the guests are not trusted. Deploying
system wide mitigation in such cases is not desirable.

Update the auto mode to unconditionally mitigate against malicious
guests. Deploy the software sequence at VMexit in auto mode also, when
hardware mitigation is not available. Unlike the force =on mode,
software sequence is not deployed at syscalls in auto mode.

Branch history clearing software sequences and hardware control
BHI_DIS_S were defined to mitigate Branch History Injection (BHI).

Add cmdline spectre_bhi={on|off|auto} to control BHI mitigation:

 auto - Deploy the hardware mitigation BHI_DIS_S, if available.
 on   - Deploy the hardware mitigation BHI_DIS_S, if available,
        otherwise deploy the software sequence at syscall entry and
	VMexit.
 off  - Turn off BHI mitigation.

The default is auto mode which does not deploy the software sequence
mitigation.  This is because of the hardening done in the syscall
dispatch path, which is the likely target of BHI.

ad584d73a2 Tracing updates for 6.9:
Main user visible change:
 
 - User events can now have "multi formats"
 
   The current user events have a single format. If another event is created
   with a different format, it will fail to be created. That is, once an
   event name is used, it cannot be used again with a different format. This
   can cause issues if a library is using an event and updates its format.
   An application using the older format will prevent an application using
   the new library from registering its event.
 
   A task could also DOS another application if it knows the event names, and
   it creates events with different formats.
 
   The multi-format event is in a different name space from the single
   format. Both the event name and its format are the unique identifier.
   This will allow two different applications to use the same user event name
   but with different payloads.
 
 - Added support to have ftrace_dump_on_oops dump out instances and
   not just the main top level tracing buffer.
 
 Other changes:
 
 - Add eventfs_root_inode
 
   Only the root inode has a dentry that is static (never goes away) and
   stores it upon creation. There's no reason that the thousands of other
   eventfs inodes should have a pointer that never gets set in its
   descriptor. Create a eventfs_root_inode desciptor that has a eventfs_inode
   descriptor and a dentry pointer, and only the root inode will use this.
 
 - Added WARN_ON()s in eventfs
 
   There's some conditionals remaining in eventfs that should never be hit,
   but instead of removing them, add WARN_ON() around them to make sure that
   they are never hit.
 
 - Have saved_cmdlines allocation also include the map_cmdline_to_pid array
 
   The saved_cmdlines structure allocates a large amount of data to hold its
   mappings. Within it, it has three arrays. Two are already apart of it:
   map_pid_to_cmdline[] and saved_cmdlines[]. More memory can be saved by
   also including the map_cmdline_to_pid[] array as well.
 
 - Restructure __string() and __assign_str() macros used in TRACE_EVENT().
 
   Dynamic strings in TRACE_EVENT() are declared with:
 
       __string(name, source)
 
   And assigned with:
 
      __assign_str(name, source)
 
   In the tracepoint callback of the event, the __string() is used to get the
   size needed to allocate on the ring buffer and __assign_str() is used to
   copy the string into the ring buffer. There's a helper structure that is
   created in the TRACE_EVENT() macro logic that will hold the string length
   and its position in the ring buffer which is created by __string().
 
   There are several trace events that have a function to create the string
   to save. This function is executed twice. Once for __string() and again
   for __assign_str(). There's no reason for this. The helper structure could
   also save the string it used in __string() and simply copy that into
   __assign_str() (it also already has its length).
 
   By using the structure to store the source string for the assignment, it
   means that the second argument to __assign_str() is no longer needed.
 
   It will be removed in the next merge window, but for now add a warning if
   the source string given to __string() is different than the source string
   given to __assign_str(), as the source to __assign_str() isn't even used
   and will be going away.
 
 - Added checks to make sure that the source of __string() is also the
   source of __assign_str() so that it can be safely removed in the next
   merge window.
 
   Included fixes that the above check found.

19f0423fd5 tracing: Support to dump instance traces by ftrace_dump_on_oops
Currently ftrace only dumps the global trace buffer on an OOPs. For
debugging a production usecase, instance trace will be helpful to
check specific problems since global trace buffer may be used for
other purposes.

This patch extend the ftrace_dump_on_oops parameter to dump a specific
or multiple trace instances:

  - ftrace_dump_on_oops=0: as before -- don't dump
  - ftrace_dump_on_oops[=1]: as before -- dump the global trace buffer
  on all CPUs
  - ftrace_dump_on_oops=2 or =orig_cpu: as before -- dump the global
  trace buffer on CPU that triggered the oops
  - ftrace_dump_on_oops=<instance_name>: new behavior -- dump the
  tracing instance matching <instance_name>
  - ftrace_dump_on_oops[=2/orig_cpu],<instance1_name>[=2/orig_cpu],
  <instrance2_name>[=2/orig_cpu]: new behavior -- dump the global trace
  buffer and multiple instance buffer on all CPUs, or only dump on CPU
  that triggered the oops if =2 or =orig_cpu is given

Also, the sysctl node can handle the input accordingly.

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "From the functional perspective, the most significant change here is
  the addition of support for Energy Models that can be updated
  dynamically at run time.

  There is also the addition of LZ4 compression support for hibernation,
  the new preferred core support in amd-pstate, new platforms support in
  the Intel RAPL driver, new model-specific EPP handling in intel_pstate
  and more.

  Apart from that, the cpufreq default transition delay is reduced from
  10 ms to 2 ms (along with some related adjustments), the system
  suspend statistics code undergoes a significant rework and there is a
  usual bunch of fixes and code cleanups all over.

Pull slab updates from Vlastimil Babka:

 - Freelist loading optimization (Chengming Zhou)

   When the per-cpu slab is depleted and a new one loaded from the cpu
   partial list, optimize the loading to avoid an irq enable/disable
   cycle. This results in a 3.5% performance improvement on the "perf
   bench sched messaging" test.

 - Kernel boot parameters cleanup after SLAB removal (Xiongwei Song)

   Due to two different main slab implementations we've had boot
   parameters prefixed either slab_ and slub_ with some later becoming
   an alias as both implementations gained the same functionality (i.e.
   slab_nomerge vs slub_nomerge). In order to eventually get rid of the
   implementation-specific names, the canonical and documented
   parameters are now all prefixed slab_ and the slub_ variants become
   deprecated but still working aliases.

 - SLAB_ kmem_cache creation flags cleanup (Vlastimil Babka)

   The flags had hardcoded #define values which became tedious and
   error-prone when adding new ones. Assign the values via an enum that
   takes care of providing unique bit numbers. Also deprecate
   SLAB_MEM_SPREAD which was only used by SLAB, so it's a no-op since
   SLAB removal. Assign it an explicit zero value. The removals of the
   flag usage are handled independently in the respective subsystems,
   with a final removal of any leftover usage planned for the next
   release.

 - Misc cleanups and fixes (Chengming Zhou, Xiaolei Wang, Zheng Yejian)

   Includes removal of unused code or function parameters and a fix of a
   memleak.

Pull x86 RFDS mitigation from Dave Hansen:
 "RFDS is a CPU vulnerability that may allow a malicious userspace to
  infer stale register values from kernel space. Kernel registers can
  have all kinds of secrets in them so the mitigation is basically to
  wait until the kernel is about to return to userspace and has user
  values in the registers. At that point there is little chance of
  kernel secrets ending up in the registers and the microarchitectural
  state can be cleared.

  This leverages some recent robustness fixes for the existing MDS
  vulnerability. Both MDS and RFDS use the VERW instruction for
  mitigation"

685d982112 Core x86 changes for v6.9:
- The biggest change is the rework of the percpu code,
   to support the 'Named Address Spaces' GCC feature,
   by Uros Bizjak:
 
    - This allows C code to access GS and FS segment relative
      memory via variables declared with such attributes,
      which allows the compiler to better optimize those accesses
      than the previous inline assembly code.
 
    - The series also includes a number of micro-optimizations
      for various percpu access methods, plus a number of
      cleanups of %gs accesses in assembly code.
 
    - These changes have been exposed to linux-next testing for
      the last ~5 months, with no known regressions in this area.
 
 - Fix/clean up __switch_to()'s broken but accidentally
   working handling of FPU switching - which also generates
   better code.
 
 - Propagate more RIP-relative addressing in assembly code,
   to generate slightly better code.
 
 - Rework the CPU mitigations Kconfig space to be less idiosyncratic,
   to make it easier for distros to follow & maintain these options.
 
 - Rework the x86 idle code to cure RCU violations and
   to clean up the logic.
 
 - Clean up the vDSO Makefile logic.
 
 - Misc cleanups and fixes.
 
 [ Please note that there's a higher number of merge commits in
   this branch (three) than is usual in x86 topic trees. This happened
   due to the long testing lifecycle of the percpu changes that
   involved 3 merge windows, which generated a longer history
   and various interactions with other core x86 changes that we
   felt better about to carry in a single branch. ]

Pull core x86 updates from Ingo Molnar:

 - The biggest change is the rework of the percpu code, to support the
   'Named Address Spaces' GCC feature, by Uros Bizjak:

      - This allows C code to access GS and FS segment relative memory
        via variables declared with such attributes, which allows the
        compiler to better optimize those accesses than the previous
        inline assembly code.

      - The series also includes a number of micro-optimizations for
        various percpu access methods, plus a number of cleanups of %gs
        accesses in assembly code.

      - These changes have been exposed to linux-next testing for the
        last ~5 months, with no known regressions in this area.

 - Fix/clean up __switch_to()'s broken but accidentally working handling
   of FPU switching - which also generates better code

 - Propagate more RIP-relative addressing in assembly code, to generate
   slightly better code

 - Rework the CPU mitigations Kconfig space to be less idiosyncratic, to
   make it easier for distros to follow & maintain these options

 - Rework the x86 idle code to cure RCU violations and to clean up the
   logic

 - Clean up the vDSO Makefile logic

 - Misc cleanups and fixes

720c857907 Support for x86 Fast Return and Event Delivery (FRED):
FRED is a replacement for IDT event delivery on x86 and addresses most of
 the technical nightmares which IDT exposes:
 
  1) Exception cause registers like CR2 need to be manually preserved in
     nested exception scenarios.
 
  2) Hardware interrupt stack switching is suboptimal for nested exceptions
     as the interrupt stack mechanism rewinds the stack on each entry which
     requires a massive effort in the low level entry of #NMI code to handle
     this.
 
  3) No hardware distinction between entry from kernel or from user which
     makes establishing kernel context more complex than it needs to be
     especially for unconditionally nestable exceptions like NMI.
 
  4) NMI nesting caused by IRET unconditionally reenabling NMIs, which is a
     problem when the perf NMI takes a fault when collecting a stack trace.
 
  5) Partial restore of ESP when returning to a 16-bit segment
 
  6) Limitation of the vector space which can cause vector exhaustion on
     large systems.
 
  7) Inability to differentiate NMI sources
 
 FRED addresses these shortcomings by:
 
  1) An extended exception stack frame which the CPU uses to save exception
     cause registers. This ensures that the meta information for each
     exception is preserved on stack and avoids the extra complexity of
     preserving it in software.
 
  2) Hardware interrupt stack switching is non-rewinding if a nested
     exception uses the currently interrupt stack.
 
  3) The entry points for kernel and user context are separate and GS BASE
     handling which is required to establish kernel context for per CPU
     variable access is done in hardware.
 
  4) NMIs are now nesting protected. They are only reenabled on the return
     from NMI.
 
  5) FRED guarantees full restore of ESP
 
  6) FRED does not put a limitation on the vector space by design because it
     uses a central entry points for kernel and user space and the CPUstores
     the entry type (exception, trap, interrupt, syscall) on the entry stack
     along with the vector number. The entry code has to demultiplex this
     information, but this removes the vector space restriction.
 
     The first hardware implementations will still have the current
     restricted vector space because lifting this limitation requires
     further changes to the local APIC.
 
  7) FRED stores the vector number and meta information on stack which
     allows having more than one NMI vector in future hardware when the
     required local APIC changes are in place.
 
 The series implements the initial FRED support by:
 
  - Reworking the existing entry and IDT handling infrastructure to
    accomodate for the alternative entry mechanism.
 
  - Expanding the stack frame to accomodate for the extra 16 bytes FRED
    requires to store context and meta information
 
  - Providing FRED specific C entry points for events which have information
    pushed to the extended stack frame, e.g. #PF and #DB.
 
  - Providing FRED specific C entry points for #NMI and #MCE
 
  - Implementing the FRED specific ASM entry points and the C code to
    demultiplex the events
 
  - Providing detection and initialization mechanisms and the necessary
    tweaks in context switching, GS BASE handling etc.
 
 The FRED integration aims for maximum code reuse vs. the existing IDT
 implementation to the extent possible and the deviation in hot paths like
 context switching are handled with alternatives to minimalize the
 impact. The low level entry and exit paths are seperate due to the extended
 stack frame and the hardware based GS BASE swichting and therefore have no
 impact on IDT based systems.
 
 It has been extensively tested on existing systems and on the FRED
 simulation and as of now there are know outstanding problems.

ca7e917769 Rework of APIC enumeration and topology evaluation:
The current implementation has a couple of shortcomings:
 
   - It fails to handle hybrid systems correctly.
 
   - The APIC registration code which handles CPU number assignents is in
     the middle of the APIC code and detached from the topology evaluation.
 
   - The various mechanisms which enumerate APICs, ACPI, MPPARSE and guest
     specific ones, tweak global variables as they see fit or in case of
     XENPV just hack around the generic mechanisms completely.
 
   - The CPUID topology evaluation code is sprinkled all over the vendor
     code and reevaluates global variables on every hotplug operation.
 
   - There is no way to analyze topology on the boot CPU before bringing up
     the APs. This causes problems for infrastructure like PERF which needs
     to size certain aspects upfront or could be simplified if that would be
     possible.
 
   - The APIC admission and CPU number association logic is incomprehensible
     and overly complex and needs to be kept around after boot instead of
     completing this right after the APIC enumeration.
 
 This update addresses these shortcomings with the following changes:
 
   - Rework the CPUID evaluation code so it is common for all vendors and
     provides information about the APIC ID segments in a uniform way
     independent of the number of segments (Thread, Core, Module, ..., Die,
     Package) so that this information can be computed instead of rewriting
     global variables of dubious value over and over.
 
   - A few cleanups and simplifcations of the APIC, IO/APIC and related
     interfaces to prepare for the topology evaluation changes.
 
   - Seperation of the parser stages so the early evaluation which tries to
     find the APIC address can be seperately overridden from the late
     evaluation which enumerates and registers the local APIC as further
     preparation for sanitizing the topology evaluation.
 
   - A new registration and admission logic which
 
      - encapsulates the inner workings so that parsers and guest logic
        cannot longer fiddle in it
 
      - uses the APIC ID segments to build topology bitmaps at registration
        time
 
      - provides a sane admission logic
 
      - allows to detect the crash kernel case, where CPU0 does not run on
        the real BSP, automatically. This is required to prevent sending
        INIT/SIPI sequences to the real BSP which would reset the whole
        machine. This was so far handled by a tedious command line
        parameter, which does not even work in nested crash scenarios.
 
      - Associates CPU number after the enumeration completed and prevents
        the late registration of APICs, which was somehow tolerated before.
 
   - Converting all parsers and guest enumeration mechanisms over to the
     new interfaces.
 
     This allows to get rid of all global variable tweaking from the parsers
     and enumeration mechanisms and sanitizes the XEN[PV] handling so it can
     use CPUID evaluation for the first time.
 
   - Mopping up existing sins by taking the information from the APIC ID
     segment bitmaps.
 
     This evaluates hybrid systems correctly on the boot CPU and allows for
     cleanups and fixes in the related drivers, e.g. PERF.
 
 The series has been extensively tested and the minimal late fallout due to
 a broken ACPI/MADT table has been addressed by tightening the admission
 logic further.

Pull x86 APIC updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "Rework of APIC enumeration and topology evaluation.

  The current implementation has a couple of shortcomings:

   - It fails to handle hybrid systems correctly.

   - The APIC registration code which handles CPU number assignents is
     in the middle of the APIC code and detached from the topology
     evaluation.

   - The various mechanisms which enumerate APICs, ACPI, MPPARSE and
     guest specific ones, tweak global variables as they see fit or in
     case of XENPV just hack around the generic mechanisms completely.

   - The CPUID topology evaluation code is sprinkled all over the vendor
     code and reevaluates global variables on every hotplug operation.

   - There is no way to analyze topology on the boot CPU before bringing
     up the APs. This causes problems for infrastructure like PERF which
     needs to size certain aspects upfront or could be simplified if
     that would be possible.

   - The APIC admission and CPU number association logic is
     incomprehensible and overly complex and needs to be kept around
     after boot instead of completing this right after the APIC
     enumeration.

  This update addresses these shortcomings with the following changes:

   - Rework the CPUID evaluation code so it is common for all vendors
     and provides information about the APIC ID segments in a uniform
     way independent of the number of segments (Thread, Core, Module,
     ..., Die, Package) so that this information can be computed instead
     of rewriting global variables of dubious value over and over.

   - A few cleanups and simplifcations of the APIC, IO/APIC and related
     interfaces to prepare for the topology evaluation changes.

   - Seperation of the parser stages so the early evaluation which tries
     to find the APIC address can be seperately overridden from the late
     evaluation which enumerates and registers the local APIC as further
     preparation for sanitizing the topology evaluation.

   - A new registration and admission logic which

       - encapsulates the inner workings so that parsers and guest logic
         cannot longer fiddle in it

       - uses the APIC ID segments to build topology bitmaps at
         registration time

       - provides a sane admission logic

       - allows to detect the crash kernel case, where CPU0 does not run
         on the real BSP, automatically. This is required to prevent
         sending INIT/SIPI sequences to the real BSP which would reset
         the whole machine. This was so far handled by a tedious command
         line parameter, which does not even work in nested crash
         scenarios.

       - Associates CPU number after the enumeration completed and
         prevents the late registration of APICs, which was somehow
         tolerated before.

   - Converting all parsers and guest enumeration mechanisms over to the
     new interfaces.

     This allows to get rid of all global variable tweaking from the
     parsers and enumeration mechanisms and sanitizes the XEN[PV]
     handling so it can use CPUID evaluation for the first time.

   - Mopping up existing sins by taking the information from the APIC ID
     segment bitmaps.

     This evaluates hybrid systems correctly on the boot CPU and allows
     for cleanups and fixes in the related drivers, e.g. PERF.

  The series has been extensively tested and the minimal late fallout
  due to a broken ACPI/MADT table has been addressed by tightening the
  admission logic further"

d08c407f71 A large set of updates and features for timers and timekeeping:
- The hierarchical timer pull model
 
     When timer wheel timers are armed they are placed into the timer wheel
     of a CPU which is likely to be busy at the time of expiry. This is done
     to avoid wakeups on potentially idle CPUs.
 
     This is wrong in several aspects:
 
      1) The heuristics to select the target CPU are wrong by
         definition as the chance to get the prediction right is close
         to zero.
 
      2) Due to #1 it is possible that timers are accumulated on a
         single target CPU
 
      3) The required computation in the enqueue path is just overhead for
      	dubious value especially under the consideration that the vast
      	majority of timer wheel timers are either canceled or rearmed
      	before they expire.
 
     The timer pull model avoids the above by removing the target
     computation on enqueue and queueing timers always on the CPU on which
     they get armed.
 
     This is achieved by having separate wheels for CPU pinned timers and
     global timers which do not care about where they expire.
 
     As long as a CPU is busy it handles both the pinned and the global
     timers which are queued on the CPU local timer wheels.
 
     When a CPU goes idle it evaluates its own timer wheels:
 
       - If the first expiring timer is a pinned timer, then the global
       	timers can be ignored as the CPU will wake up before they expire.
 
       - If the first expiring timer is a global timer, then the expiry time
         is propagated into the timer pull hierarchy and the CPU makes sure
         to wake up for the first pinned timer.
 
     The timer pull hierarchy organizes CPUs in groups of eight at the
     lowest level and at the next levels groups of eight groups up to the
     point where no further aggregation of groups is required, i.e. the
     number of levels is log8(NR_CPUS). The magic number of eight has been
     established by experimention, but can be adjusted if needed.
 
     In each group one busy CPU acts as the migrator. It's only one CPU to
     avoid lock contention on remote timer wheels.
 
     The migrator CPU checks in its own timer wheel handling whether there
     are other CPUs in the group which have gone idle and have global timers
     to expire. If there are global timers to expire, the migrator locks the
     remote CPU timer wheel and handles the expiry.
 
     Depending on the group level in the hierarchy this handling can require
     to walk the hierarchy downwards to the CPU level.
 
     Special care is taken when the last CPU goes idle. At this point the
     CPU is the systemwide migrator at the top of the hierarchy and it
     therefore cannot delegate to the hierarchy. It needs to arm its own
     timer device to expire either at the first expiring timer in the
     hierarchy or at the first CPU local timer, which ever expires first.
 
     This completely removes the overhead from the enqueue path, which is
     e.g. for networking a true hotpath and trades it for a slightly more
     complex idle path.
 
     This has been in development for a couple of years and the final series
     has been extensively tested by various teams from silicon vendors and
     ran through extensive CI.
 
     There have been slight performance improvements observed on network
     centric workloads and an Intel team confirmed that this allows them to
     power down a die completely on a mult-die socket for the first time in
     a mostly idle scenario.
 
     There is only one outstanding ~1.5% regression on a specific overloaded
     netperf test which is currently investigated, but the rest is either
     positive or neutral performance wise and positive on the power
     management side.
 
   - Fixes for the timekeeping interpolation code for cross-timestamps:
 
     cross-timestamps are used for PTP to get snapshots from hardware timers
     and interpolated them back to clock MONOTONIC. The changes address a
     few corner cases in the interpolation code which got the math and logic
     wrong.
 
   - Simplifcation of the clocksource watchdog retry logic to automatically
     adjust to handle larger systems correctly instead of having more
     incomprehensible command line parameters.
 
   - Treewide consolidation of the VDSO data structures.
 
   - The usual small improvements and cleanups all over the place.

8076fcde01 x86/rfds: Mitigate Register File Data Sampling (RFDS)
RFDS is a CPU vulnerability that may allow userspace to infer kernel
stale data previously used in floating point registers, vector registers
and integer registers. RFDS only affects certain Intel Atom processors.

Intel released a microcode update that uses VERW instruction to clear
the affected CPU buffers. Unlike MDS, none of the affected cores support
SMT.

Add RFDS bug infrastructure and enable the VERW based mitigation by
default, that clears the affected buffers just before exiting to
userspace. Also add sysfs reporting and cmdline parameter
"reg_file_data_sampling" to control the mitigation.

For details see:

This cycle, a lot of workqueue changes including some that are significant
