cac85e4616 VFIO updates for v6.3-rc1
- Remove redundant resource check in vfio-platform. (Angus Chen)
 
  - Use GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT for persistent userspace allocations, allowing
    removal of arbitrary kernel limits in favor of cgroup control.
    (Yishai Hadas)
 
  - mdev tidy-ups, including removing the module-only build restriction
    for sample drivers, Kconfig changes to select mdev support,
    documentation movement to keep sample driver usage instructions with
    sample drivers rather than with API docs, remove references to
    out-of-tree drivers in docs. (Christoph Hellwig)
 
  - Fix collateral breakages from mdev Kconfig changes. (Arnd Bergmann)
 
  - Make mlx5 migration support match device support, improve source
    and target flows to improve pre-copy support and reduce downtime.
    (Yishai Hadas)
 
  - Convert additional mdev sysfs case to use sysfs_emit(). (Bo Liu)
 
  - Resolve copy-paste error in mdev mbochs sample driver Kconfig.
    (Ye Xingchen)
 
  - Avoid propagating missing reset error in vfio-platform if reset
    requirement is relaxed by module option. (Tomasz Duszynski)
 
  - Range size fixes in mlx5 variant driver for missed last byte and
    stricter range calculation. (Yishai Hadas)
 
  - Fixes to suspended vaddr support and locked_vm accounting, excluding
    mdev configurations from the former due to potential to indefinitely
    block kernel threads, fix underflow and restore locked_vm on new mm.
    (Steve Sistare)
 
  - Update outdated vfio documentation due to new IOMMUFD interfaces in
    recent kernels. (Yi Liu)
 
  - Resolve deadlock between group_lock and kvm_lock, finally.
    (Matthew Rosato)

408f2c9c15 s390/pci: expose UID uniqueness guarantee
On s390 each PCI device has a user-defined ID (UID) exposed under
/sys/bus/pci/devices/<dev>/uid. This ID was designed to serve as the PCI
device's primary index and to match the device within Linux to the
device configured in the hypervisor. To serve as a primary identifier
the UID must be unique within the Linux instance, this is guaranteed by
the platform if and only if the UID Uniqueness Checking flag is set
within the CLP List PCI Functions response.

While the UID has been exposed to userspace since commit ac4995b9d5
("s390/pci: add some new arch specific pci attributes") whether or not
the platform guarantees its uniqueness for the lifetime of the Linux
instance while defined is not visible from userspace. Remedy this by
exposing this as a per device attribute at

/sys/bus/pci/devices/<dev>/uid_is_unique

Keeping this a per device attribute allows for maximum flexibility if we
ever end up with some devices not having a UID or not enjoying the
guaranteed uniqueness.

Reduces attack surface on kernel devs opening the links for MITM
as HTTPS traffic is much harder to manipulate.

Deterministic algorithm:
For each file:
  If not .svg:
    For each line:
      If doesn't contain `\bxmlns\b`:
        For each link, `\bhttp://[^# \t\r\n]*(?:\w|/)`:
	  If neither `\bgnu\.org/license`, nor `\bmozilla\.org/MPL\b`:
            If both the HTTP and HTTPS versions
            return 200 OK and serve the same content:

There is not a single user of the debug raw view. Therefore remove it
before anybody uses it. If anybody would make use of the view it would
expose the struct __debug_entry definition to userspace and really
would make it uapi. This wouldn't be good, since the definition is
suboptimal and needs to be changed.

Right now the structure definition is only defined to be uapi, however
there is no user.

d8cac29b1d vfio-ccw: Introduce a new CRW region
This region provides a mechanism to pass a Channel Report Word
that affect vfio-ccw devices, and needs to be passed to the guest
for its awareness and/or processing.

The base driver (see crw_collect_info()) provides space for two
CRWs, as a subchannel event may have two CRWs chained together
(one for the ssid, one for the subchannel).  As vfio-ccw will
deal with everything at the subchannel level, provide space
for a single CRW to be transferred in one shot.

725b94d741 vfio-ccw: Enable transparent CCW IPL from DASD
Remove the explicit prefetch check when using vfio-ccw devices.
This check does not trigger in practice as all Linux channel programs
are intended to use prefetch.

It is expected that all ORBs issued by Linux will request prefetch.
Although non-prefetching ORBs are not rejected, they will prefetch
nonetheless. A warning is issued up to once per 5 seconds when a
forced prefetch occurs.

A non-prefetch ORB does not necessarily result in an error, however
frequent encounters with non-prefetch ORBs indicate that channel
programs are being executed in a way that is inconsistent with what
the guest is requesting. While there is currently no known case of an
error caused by forced prefetch, it is possible in theory that forced
prefetch could result in an error if applied to a channel program that
is dependent on non-prefetch.

d03756aa05 Documentation/s390: Update / remove developerWorks web links
s390 documentation now lives in IBM Knowledge Center, so update the link
in the zfcpdump documentation.

Also, remove the old developerWorks links from the appldata source code.
Those were not really documentation related, but rather a reminder to the
developer that some documentation has to be adjusted when changing the
record layout, which should still be pretty obvious from the remaining
comment.

For non-static-inlines, debug.c already had non-compliant function
header docs. So move the pure prototype kdocs of
("s390: include/asm/debug.h add kerneldoc markups")
from debug.h to debug.c and merge them with the old function docs.
Also, I had the impression that kdoc typically is at the implementation
in the compile unit rather than at the prototype in the header file.

While at it, update the short kdoc description to distinguish the
different functions. And a few more consistency cleanups.

Added a new kdoc for debug_set_critical() since debug.h comments it
as part of the API.

a20aa857e0 s390: include/asm/debug.h add kerneldoc markups
Instead of keeping the documentation inside s390dbf.rst,
move them to arch/s390/include/asm/debug.h, using standard
kernel-doc markups.

Keeping the documentation close to the code helps to keep it
updated. It also makes easier to document other stuff inside
debug.h, as all it needs is to add kernel-doc markups inside
it, as the file will be already be included at the produced
documentation.

Convert all text files with s390 documentation to ReST format.

Tried to preserve as much as possible the original document
format. Still, some of the files required some work in order
for it to be visible on both plain text and after converted
to html.

The conversion is actually:
  - add blank lines and identation in order to identify paragraphs;
  - fix tables markups;
  - add some lists markups;
  - mark literal blocks;
  - adjust title markups.

At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to
the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings.

  |
  | Can we just admit that we work with computers, and we don't need to

dictionary.com refers to the word as "Chiefly British", which is
probably an undesirable attribute for technical documentation.

Replace all occurrences under Documentation/ with "while".

a7ddcea58a Drop all 00-INDEX files from Documentation/
This is a respin with a wider audience (all that get_maintainer returned)
and I know this spams a *lot* of people. Not sure what would be the correct
way, so my apologies for ruining your inbox.

The 00-INDEX files are supposed to give a summary of all files present
in a directory, but these files are horribly out of date and their
usefulness is brought into question. Often a simple "ls" would reveal
the same information as the filenames are generally quite descriptive as
a short introduction to what the file covers (it should not surprise
anyone what Documentation/sched/sched-design-CFS.txt covers)

A few years back it was mentioned that these files were no longer really
needed, and they have since then grown further out of date, so perhaps
it is time to just throw them out.

A short status yields the following _outdated_ 00-INDEX files, first
counter is files listed in 00-INDEX but missing in the directory, last
is files present but not listed in 00-INDEX.

List of outdated 00-INDEX:
Documentation: (4/10)
Documentation/sysctl: (0/1)
Documentation/timers: (1/0)
Documentation/blockdev: (3/1)
Documentation/w1/slaves: (0/1)
Documentation/locking: (0/1)
Documentation/devicetree: (0/5)
Documentation/power: (1/1)
Documentation/powerpc: (0/5)
Documentation/arm: (1/0)
Documentation/x86: (0/9)
Documentation/x86/x86_64: (1/1)
Documentation/scsi: (4/4)
Documentation/filesystems: (2/9)
Documentation/filesystems/nfs: (0/2)
Documentation/cgroup-v1: (0/2)
Documentation/kbuild: (0/4)
Documentation/spi: (1/0)
Documentation/virtual/kvm: (1/0)
Documentation/scheduler: (0/2)
Documentation/fb: (0/1)
Documentation/block: (0/1)
Documentation/networking: (6/37)
Documentation/vm: (1/3)

Then there are 364 subdirectories in Documentation/ with several files that
are missing 00-INDEX alltogether (and another 120 with a single file and no
00-INDEX).

I don't really have an opinion to whether or not we /should/ have 00-INDEX,
but the above 00-INDEX should either be removed or be kept up to date. If
we should keep the files, I can try to keep them updated, but I rather not
if we just want to delete them anyway.

As a starting point, remove all index-files and references to 00-INDEX and
see where the discussion is going.

69cfd92ea4 vfio-ccw: update documentation
The vfio-ccw documentation comes from the cover letter of the
original patch submission, which shows in some parts. Give it some
love; in particular:

- Remove/rework statements that make sense in a cover letter, but not
  in regular documentation.
- Fix some typos.
- Describe the current limitations in more detail.

When s390 traces with hex_ascii or sprintf view are
extracted and sorted, use the sort option -s (stable)
to avoid multiple lines with the same time stamp being
sorted using the rest of the line as secondary key.
