7bb943806f kexec: do syscore_shutdown() in kernel_kexec
syscore_shutdown() runs driver and module callbacks to get the system into
a state where it can be correctly shut down.  In commit 6f389a8f1d ("PM
/ reboot: call syscore_shutdown() after disable_nonboot_cpus()")
syscore_shutdown() was removed from kernel_restart_prepare() and hence got
(incorrectly?) removed from the kexec flow.  This was innocuous until
commit 6735150b69 ("KVM: Use syscore_ops instead of reboot_notifier to
hook restart/shutdown") changed the way that KVM registered its shutdown
callbacks, switching from reboot notifiers to syscore_ops.shutdown.  As
syscore_shutdown() is missing from kexec, KVM's shutdown hook is not run
and virtualisation is left enabled on the boot CPU which results in triple
faults when switching to the new kernel on Intel x86 VT-x with VMXE
enabled.

Fix this by adding syscore_shutdown() to the kexec sequence.  In terms of
where to add it, it is being added after migrating the kexec task to the
boot CPU, but before APs are shut down.  It is not totally clear if this
is the best place: in commit 6f389a8f1d ("PM / reboot: call
syscore_shutdown() after disable_nonboot_cpus()") it is stated that
"syscore_ops operations should be carried with one CPU on-line and
interrupts disabled." APs are only offlined later in machine_shutdown(),
so this syscore_shutdown() is being run while APs are still online.  This
seems to be the correct place as it matches where syscore_shutdown() is
run in the reboot and halt flows - they also run it before APs are shut
down.  The assumption is that the commit message in commit 6f389a8f1d
("PM / reboot: call syscore_shutdown() after disable_nonboot_cpus()") is
no longer valid.

KVM has been discussed here as it is what broke loudly by not having
syscore_shutdown() in kexec, but this change impacts more than just KVM;
all drivers/modules which register a syscore_ops.shutdown callback will
now be invoked in the kexec flow.  Looking at some of them like x86 MCE it
is probably more correct to also shut these down during kexec. 
Maintainers of all drivers which use syscore_ops.shutdown are added on CC
for visibility.  They are:

arch/powerpc/platforms/cell/spu_base.c  .shutdown = spu_shutdown,
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mce/core.c	        .shutdown = mce_syscore_shutdown,
arch/x86/kernel/i8259.c                 .shutdown = i8259A_shutdown,
drivers/irqchip/irq-i8259.c	        .shutdown = i8259A_shutdown,
drivers/irqchip/irq-sun6i-r.c	        .shutdown = sun6i_r_intc_shutdown,
drivers/leds/trigger/ledtrig-cpu.c	.shutdown = ledtrig_cpu_syscore_shutdown,
drivers/power/reset/sc27xx-poweroff.c	.shutdown = sc27xx_poweroff_shutdown,
kernel/irq/generic-chip.c	        .shutdown = irq_gc_shutdown,
virt/kvm/kvm_main.c	                .shutdown = kvm_shutdown,

This has been tested by doing a kexec on x86_64 and aarch64.

2861b37732 kexec_core: fix the assignment to kimage->control_page
image->control_page represents the starting address for allocating the
next control page, while hole_end represents the address of the last valid
byte of the currently allocated control page.

This bug actually does not affect the correctness of allocating control
pages, because image->control_page is currently only used in
kimage_alloc_crash_control_pages(), and this function, when allocating
control pages, will first align image->control_page up to the nearest
`(1 << order) << PAGE_SHIFT` boundary, then use this value as the
starting address of the next control page.  This ensures that the newly
allocated control page will use the correct starting address and not
overlap with previously allocated control pages.

Although it does not affect the correctness of the final result, it is
better for us to set image->control_page to the correct value, in case
it might be used elsewhere in the future, potentially causing errors.

Therefore, after successfully allocating a control page,
image->control_page should be updated to `hole_end + 1`, rather than
hole_end.

816d334afa kexec: modify the meaning of the end parameter in kimage_is_destination_range()
The end parameter received by kimage_is_destination_range() should be the
last valid byte address of the target memory segment plus 1.  However, in
the locate_mem_hole_bottom_up() and locate_mem_hole_top_down() functions,
the corresponding value passed to kimage_is_destination_range() is the
last valid byte address of the target memory segment, which is 1 less.

There are two ways to fix this bug.  We can either correct the logic of
the locate_mem_hole_bottom_up() and locate_mem_hole_top_down() functions,
or we can fix kimage_is_destination_range() by making the end parameter
represent the last valid byte address of the target memory segment.  Here,
we choose the second approach.

Due to the modification to kimage_is_destination_range(), we also need to
adjust its callers, such as kimage_alloc_normal_control_pages() and
kimage_alloc_page().

cbc2fe9d9c kexec_file: add kexec_file flag to control debug printing
Patch series "kexec_file: print out debugging message if required", v4.

Currently, specifying '-d' on kexec command will print a lot of debugging
informationabout kexec/kdump loading with kexec_load interface.

However, kexec_file_load prints nothing even though '-d' is specified. 
It's very inconvenient to debug or analyze the kexec/kdump loading when
something wrong happened with kexec/kdump itself or develper want to check
the kexec/kdump loading.

In this patchset, a kexec_file flag is KEXEC_FILE_DEBUG added and checked
in code.  If it's passed in, debugging message of kexec_file code will be
printed out and can be seen from console and dmesg.  Otherwise, the
debugging message is printed like beofre when pr_debug() is taken.

Note:
****
=====
1) The code in kexec-tools utility also need be changed to support
passing KEXEC_FILE_DEBUG to kernel when 'kexec -s -d' is specified.
The patch link is here:
=========
[PATCH] kexec_file: add kexec_file flag to support debug printing

information is necessary. So leave it to s390 developer.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------


This patch (of 7):

When specifying 'kexec -c -d', kexec_load interface will print loading
information, e.g the regions where kernel/initrd/purgatory/cmdline are
put, the memmap passed to 2nd kernel taken as system RAM ranges, and
printing all contents of struct kexec_segment, etc.  These are very
helpful for analyzing or positioning what's happening when kexec/kdump
itself failed.  The debugging printing for kexec_load interface is made in
user space utility kexec-tools.

Whereas, with kexec_file_load interface, 'kexec -s -d' print nothing. 
Because kexec_file code is mostly implemented in kernel space, and the
debugging printing functionality is missed.  It's not convenient when
debugging kexec/kdump loading and jumping with kexec_file_load interface.

Now add KEXEC_FILE_DEBUG to kexec_file flag to control the debugging
message printing.  And add global variable kexec_file_dbg_print and macro
kexec_dprintk() to facilitate the printing.

This is a preparation, later kexec_dprintk() will be used to replace the
existing pr_debug().  Once 'kexec -s -d' is specified, it will print out
kexec/kdump loading information.  If '-d' is not specified, it regresses
to pr_debug().

b631b95dde crash_core: move crashk_*res definition into crash_core.c
Both crashk_res and crashk_low_res are used to mark the reserved
crashkernel regions in iomem_resource tree.  And later the generic
crashkernel resrvation will be added into crash_core.c.  So move
crashk_res and crashk_low_res definition into crash_core.c to avoid
compiling error if CONFIG_CRASH_CORE=on while CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE is unset.

Meanwhile include <asm/crash_core.h> in <linux/crash_core.h> if generic
reservation is needed.  In that case, <asm/crash_core.h> need be added by
ARCH.  In asm/crash_core.h, ARCH can provide its own macro definitions to
override macros in <linux/crash_core.h> if needed.  Wrap the including
into CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_GENERIC_CRASHKERNEL_RESERVATION ifdeffery scope to
avoid compiling error in other ARCH-es which don't take the generic
reservation way yet.

2472627561 crash: add generic infrastructure for crash hotplug support
To support crash hotplug, a mechanism is needed to update the crash
elfcorehdr upon CPU or memory changes (eg.  hot un/plug or off/ onlining).
The crash elfcorehdr describes the CPUs and memory to be written into the
vmcore.

To track CPU changes, callbacks are registered with the cpuhp mechanism
via cpuhp_setup_state_nocalls(CPUHP_BP_PREPARE_DYN).  The crash hotplug
elfcorehdr update has no explicit ordering requirement (relative to other
cpuhp states), so meets the criteria for utilizing CPUHP_BP_PREPARE_DYN. 
CPUHP_BP_PREPARE_DYN is a dynamic state and avoids the need to introduce a
new state for crash hotplug.  Also, CPUHP_BP_PREPARE_DYN is the last state
in the PREPARE group, just prior to the STARTING group, which is very
close to the CPU starting up in a plug/online situation, or stopping in a
unplug/ offline situation.  This minimizes the window of time during an
actual plug/online or unplug/offline situation in which the elfcorehdr
would be inaccurate.  Note that for a CPU being unplugged or offlined, the
CPU will still be present in the list of CPUs generated by
crash_prepare_elf64_headers().  However, there is no need to explicitly
omit the CPU, see justification in 'crash: change
crash_prepare_elf64_headers() to for_each_possible_cpu()'.

To track memory changes, a notifier is registered to capture the memblock
MEM_ONLINE and MEM_OFFLINE events via register_memory_notifier().

The CPU callbacks and memory notifiers invoke crash_handle_hotplug_event()
which performs needed tasks and then dispatches the event to the
architecture specific arch_crash_handle_hotplug_event() to update the
elfcorehdr with the current state of CPUs and memory.  During the process,
the kexec_lock is held.

6f991cc363 crash: move a few code bits to setup support of crash hotplug
Patch series "crash: Kernel handling of CPU and memory hot un/plug", v28.

Once the kdump service is loaded, if changes to CPUs or memory occur,
either by hot un/plug or off/onlining, the crash elfcorehdr must also be
updated.

The elfcorehdr describes to kdump the CPUs and memory in the system, and
any inaccuracies can result in a vmcore with missing CPU context or memory
regions.

The current solution utilizes udev to initiate an unload-then-reload of
the kdump image (eg.  kernel, initrd, boot_params, purgatory and
elfcorehdr) by the userspace kexec utility.  In the original post I
outlined the significant performance problems related to offloading this
activity to userspace.

This patchset introduces a generic crash handler that registers with the
CPU and memory notifiers.  Upon CPU or memory changes, from either hot
un/plug or off/onlining, this generic handler is invoked and performs
important housekeeping, for example obtaining the appropriate lock, and
then invokes an architecture specific handler to do the appropriate
elfcorehdr update.

Note the description in patch 'crash: change crash_prepare_elf64_headers()
to for_each_possible_cpu()' and 'x86/crash: optimize CPU changes' that
enables further optimizations related to CPU plug/unplug/online/offline
performance of elfcorehdr updates.

In the case of x86_64, the arch specific handler generates a new
elfcorehdr, and overwrites the old one in memory; thus no involvement with
userspace needed.

To realize the benefits/test this patchset, one must make a couple
of minor changes to userspace:

 - Prevent udev from updating kdump crash kernel on hot un/plug changes.
   Add the following as the first lines to the RHEL udev rule file
   /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/98-kexec.rules:

   # The kernel updates the crash elfcorehdr for CPU and memory changes
   SUBSYSTEM=="cpu", ATTRS{crash_hotplug}=="1", GOTO="kdump_reload_end"
   SUBSYSTEM=="memory", ATTRS{crash_hotplug}=="1", GOTO="kdump_reload_end"

   With this changeset applied, the two rules evaluate to false for
   CPU and memory change events and thus skip the userspace
   unload-then-reload of kdump.

 - Change to the kexec_file_load for loading the kdump kernel:
   Eg. on RHEL: in /usr/bin/kdumpctl, change to:
    standard_kexec_args="-p -d -s"
   which adds the -s to select kexec_file_load() syscall.

This kernel patchset also supports kexec_load() with a modified kexec
userspace utility.  A working changeset to the kexec userspace utility is
posted to the kexec-tools mailing list here:

 http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/kexec/2023-May/027049.html

To use the kexec-tools patch, apply, build and install kexec-tools, then
change the kdumpctl's standard_kexec_args to replace the -s with
--hotplug.  The removal of -s reverts to the kexec_load syscall and the
addition of --hotplug invokes the changes put forth in the kexec-tools
patch.


This patch (of 8):

The crash hotplug support leans on the work for the kexec_file_load()
syscall.  To also support the kexec_load() syscall, a few bits of code
need to be move outside of CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE.  As such, these bits are
moved out of kexec_file.c and into a common location crash_core.c.

In addition, struct crash_mem and crash_notes were moved to new locales so
that PROC_KCORE, which sets CRASH_CORE alone, builds correctly.

No functionality change intended.

16c6006af4 kexec: enable kexec_crash_size to support two crash kernel regions
The crashk_low_res should be considered by /sys/kernel/kexec_crash_size
to support two crash kernel regions shrinking if existing.

While doing it, crashk_low_res will only be shrunk when the entire

8a7db7790a kexec: improve the readability of crash_shrink_memory()
The major adjustments are:
1. end = start + new_size.
   The 'end' here is not an accurate representation, because it is not the
   new end of crashk_res, but the start of ram_res, difference 1. So
   eliminate it and replace it with ram_res->start.
2. Use 'ram_res->start' and 'ram_res->end' as arguments to
   crash_free_reserved_phys_range() to indicate that the memory covered by
   'ram_res' is released from the crashk. And keep it close to
   insert_resource().
3. Replace 'if (start == end)' with 'if (!new_size)', clear indication that
   all crashk memory will be shrunken.

No functional change.

f7f567b95b kexec: clear crashk_res if all its memory has been released
If the resource of crashk_res has been released, it is better to clear
crashk_res.start and crashk_res.end.  Because 'end = start - 1' is not
reasonable, and in some places the test is based on crashk_res.end, not
resource_size(&crashk_res).

6f22a744f4 kexec: delete a useless check in crash_shrink_memory()
The check '(crashk_res.parent != NULL)' is added by commit e05bd3367b
("kexec: fix Oops in crash_shrink_memory()"), but it's stale now.  Because
if 'crashk_res' is not reserved, it will be zero in size and will be
intercepted by the above 'if (new_size >= old_size)'.

Ago:
	if (new_size >= end - start + 1)

Now:
	old_size = (end == 0) ? 0 : end - start + 1;
	if (new_size >= old_size)

1cba6c4309 kexec: fix a memory leak in crash_shrink_memory()
Patch series "kexec: enable kexec_crash_size to support two crash kernel
regions".

When crashkernel=X fails to reserve region under 4G, it will fall back to
reserve region above 4G and a region of the default size will also be
reserved under 4G.  Unfortunately, /sys/kernel/kexec_crash_size only
supports one crash kernel region now, the user cannot sense the low memory
reserved by reading /sys/kernel/kexec_crash_size.  Also, low memory cannot
be freed by writing this file.

For example:
resource_size(crashk_res) = 512M
resource_size(crashk_low_res) = 256M

The result of 'cat /sys/kernel/kexec_crash_size' is 512M, but it should be
768M.  When we execute 'echo 0 > /sys/kernel/kexec_crash_size', the size
of crashk_res becomes 0 and resource_size(crashk_low_res) is still 256 MB,
which is incorrect.

Since crashk_res manages the memory with high address and crashk_low_res
manages the memory with low address, crashk_low_res is shrunken only when
all crashk_res is shrunken.  And because when there is only one crash
kernel region, crashk_res is always used.  Therefore, if all crashk_res is
shrunken and crashk_low_res still exists, swap them.


This patch (of 6):

If the value of parameter 'new_size' is in the semi-open and semi-closed
interval (crashk_res.end - KEXEC_CRASH_MEM_ALIGN + 1, crashk_res.end], the
calculation result of ram_res is:

	ram_res->start = crashk_res.end + 1
	ram_res->end   = crashk_res.end

The operation of insert_resource() fails, and ram_res is not added to
iomem_resource.  As a result, the memory of the control block ram_res is
leaked.

In fact, on all architectures, the start address and size of crashk_res
are already aligned by KEXEC_CRASH_MEM_ALIGN.  Therefore, we do not need
to round up crashk_res.start again.  Instead, we should round up
'new_size' in advance.

a42aaad2e4 kexec: introduce sysctl parameters kexec_load_limit_*
kexec allows replacing the current kernel with a different one.  This is
usually a source of concerns for sysadmins that want to harden a system.

Linux already provides a way to disable loading new kexec kernel via
kexec_load_disabled, but that control is very coard, it is all or nothing
and does not make distinction between a panic kexec and a normal kexec.

This patch introduces new sysctl parameters, with finer tuning to specify
how many times a kexec kernel can be loaded.  The sysadmin can set
different limits for kexec panic and kexec reboot kernels.  The value can
be modified at runtime via sysctl, but only with a stricter value.

With these new parameters on place, a system with loadpin and verity
enabled, using the following kernel parameters:
sysctl.kexec_load_limit_reboot=0 sysct.kexec_load_limit_panic=1 can have a
good warranty that if initrd tries to load a panic kernel, a malitious
user will have small chances to replace that kernel with a different one,
even if they can trigger timeouts on the disk where the panic kernel
lives.

948084f0f6 kexec: replace kmap() with kmap_local_page()
kmap() is being deprecated in favor of kmap_local_page().

There are two main problems with kmap(): (1) It comes with an overhead as
mapping space is restricted and protected by a global lock for
synchronization and (2) it also requires global TLB invalidation when the
kmap's pool wraps and it might block when the mapping space is fully
utilized until a slot becomes available.

With kmap_local_page() the mappings are per thread, CPU local, can take
page faults, and can be called from any context (including interrupts). 
It is faster than kmap() in kernels with HIGHMEM enabled.  Furthermore,
the tasks can be preempted and, when they are scheduled to run again, the
kernel virtual addresses are restored and are still valid.

Since its use in kexec_core.c is safe everywhere, it should be preferred.

Therefore, replace kmap() with kmap_local_page() in kexec_core.c.

Tested on a QEMU/KVM x86_32 VM, 6GB RAM, booting a kernel with
HIGHMEM64GB enabled.

05c6257433 panic, kexec: make __crash_kexec() NMI safe
Attempting to get a crash dump out of a debug PREEMPT_RT kernel via an NMI
panic() doesn't work.  The cause of that lies in the PREEMPT_RT definition
of mutex_trylock():

	if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_DEBUG_RT_MUTEXES) && WARN_ON_ONCE(!in_task()))
		return 0;

This prevents an nmi_panic() from executing the main body of
__crash_kexec() which does the actual kexec into the kdump kernel.  The
warning and return are explained by:

  6ce47fd961 ("rtmutex: Warn if trylock is called from hard/softirq context")
  [...]
  The reasons for this are:

      1) There is a potential deadlock in the slowpath

      2) Another cpu which blocks on the rtmutex will boost the task
	 which allegedly locked the rtmutex, but that cannot work
	 because the hard/softirq context borrows the task context.

Furthermore, grabbing the lock isn't NMI safe, so do away with kexec_mutex
and replace it with an atomic variable.  This is somewhat overzealous as
*some* callsites could keep using a mutex (e.g.  the sysfs-facing ones
like crash_shrink_memory()), but this has the benefit of involving a
single unified lock and preventing any future NMI-related surprises.

Tested by triggering NMI panics via:

  $ echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/panic_on_unrecovered_nmi
  $ echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/unknown_nmi_panic
  $ echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/panic

  $ ipmitool power diag

7bb5da0d49 kexec: turn all kexec_mutex acquisitions into trylocks
Patch series "kexec, panic: Making crash_kexec() NMI safe", v4.


This patch (of 2):

Most acquistions of kexec_mutex are done via mutex_trylock() - those were
a direct "translation" from:

  8c5a1cf0ad ("kexec: use a mutex for locking rather than xchg()")

there have however been two additions since then that use mutex_lock():
crash_get_memory_size() and crash_shrink_memory().

A later commit will replace said mutex with an atomic variable, and
locking operations will become atomic_cmpxchg().  Rather than having those
mutex_lock() become while (atomic_cmpxchg(&lock, 0, 1)), turn them into
trylocks that can return -EBUSY on acquisition failure.

This does halve the printable size of the crash kernel, but that's still
neighbouring 2G for 32bit kernels which should be ample enough.

44d35720c9 sysctl changes for v5.19-rc1
For two kernel releases now kernel/sysctl.c has been being cleaned up
 slowly, since the tables were grossly long, sprinkled with tons of #ifdefs and
 all this caused merge conflicts with one susbystem or another.
 
 This tree was put together to help try to avoid conflicts with these cleanups
 going on different trees at time. So nothing exciting on this pull request,
 just cleanups.
 
 I actually had this sysctl-next tree up since v5.18 but I missed sending a
 pull request for it on time during the last merge window. And so these changes
 have been being soaking up on sysctl-next and so linux-next for a while.
 The last change was merged May 4th.
 
 Most of the compile issues were reported by 0day and fixed.
 
 To help avoid a conflict with bpf folks at Daniel Borkmann's request
 I merged bpf-next/pr/bpf-sysctl into sysctl-next to get the effor which
 moves the BPF sysctls from kernel/sysctl.c to BPF core.

Merge tag 'sysctl-5.19-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mcgrof/linux

Pull sysctl updates from Luis Chamberlain:
 "For two kernel releases now kernel/sysctl.c has been being cleaned up
  slowly, since the tables were grossly long, sprinkled with tons of
  #ifdefs and all this caused merge conflicts with one susbystem or
  another.

  This tree was put together to help try to avoid conflicts with these
  cleanups going on different trees at time. So nothing exciting on this
  pull request, just cleanups.

  Thanks a lot to the Uniontech and Huawei folks for doing some of this
  nasty work"

a467257ffe kernel/kexec_core: move kexec_core sysctls into its own file
This move the kernel/kexec_core.c respective sysctls to its own file.

kernel/sysctl.c has grown to an insane mess, We move sysctls to places
where features actually belong to improve the readability and reduce
merge conflicts. At the same time, the proc-sysctl maintainers can easily
care about the core logic other than the sysctl knobs added for some feature.

We already moved all filesystem sysctls out. This patch is part of the effort
to move kexec related sysctls out.

93d102f094 printk: remove safe buffers
With @logbuf_lock removed, the high level printk functions for
storing messages are lockless. Messages can be stored from any
context, so there is no need for the NMI and safe buffers anymore.
Remove the NMI and safe buffers.

Although the safe buffers are removed, the NMI and safe context
tracking is still in place. In these contexts, store the message
immediately but still use irq_work to defer the console printing.

Since printk recursion tracking is in place, safe context tracking
for most of printk is not needed. Remove it. Only safe context
tracking relating to the console and console_owner locks is left
in place. This is because the console and console_owner locks are
needed for the actual printing.

f39650de68 kernel.h: split out panic and oops helpers
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.

56c91a1843 kernel: kexec: remove the lock operation of system_transition_mutex
Function kernel_kexec() is called with lock system_transition_mutex
held in reboot system call. While inside kernel_kexec(), it will
acquire system_transition_mutex agin. This will lead to dead lock.

The dead lock should be easily triggered, it hasn't caused any
failure report just because the feature 'kexec jump' is almost not
used by anyone as far as I know. An inquiry can be made about who
is using 'kexec jump' and where it's used. Before that, let's simply
remove the lock operation inside CONFIG_KEXEC_JUMP ifdeffery scope.

f2485a2dc9 elf_prstatus: collect the common part (everything before pr_reg) into a struct
Preparations to doing i386 compat elf_prstatus sanely - rather than duplicating
the beginning of compat_elf_prstatus, take these fields into a separate
structure (compat_elf_prstatus_common), so that it could be reused.  Due to
the incestous relationship between binfmt_elf.c and compat_binfmt_elf.c we
need the same shape change done to native struct elf_prstatus, gathering the
fields prior to pr_reg into a new structure (struct elf_prstatus_common).

Fortunately, offset of pr_reg is always a multiple of 16 with no padding
right before it, so it's possible to turn all the stuff prior to it into
a single member without disturbing the layout.

a24d22b225 crypto: sha - split sha.h into sha1.h and sha2.h
Currently <crypto/sha.h> contains declarations for both SHA-1 and SHA-2,
and <crypto/sha3.h> contains declarations for SHA-3.

This organization is inconsistent, but more importantly SHA-1 is no
longer considered to be cryptographically secure.  So to the extent
possible, SHA-1 shouldn't be grouped together with any of the other SHA
versions, and usage of it should be phased out.

Therefore, split <crypto/sha.h> into two headers <crypto/sha1.h> and
<crypto/sha2.h>, and make everyone explicitly specify whether they want
the declarations for SHA-1, SHA-2, or both.

This avoids making the SHA-1 declarations visible to files that don't
want anything to do with SHA-1.  It also prepares for potentially moving
sha1.h into a new insecure/ or dangerous/ directory.

better to remove the lock and convert variables to atomic, with preventing

zone->managed_pages to atomic variables.

totalram_pages, zone->managed_pages and totalhigh_pages updates are
protected by managed_page_count_lock, but readers never care about it.
Convert these variables to atomic to avoid readers potentially seeing a
store tear.

Main motivation was that managed_page_count_lock handling was complicating
things.  It was discussed in length here,
https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/995739/#1181785 It seemes better
to remove the lock and convert variables to atomic.  With the change,
preventing poteintial store-to-read tearing comes as a bonus.

This patch (of 4):

This is in preparation to a later patch which converts totalram_pages and
zone->managed_pages to atomic variables.  Please note that re-reading the
value might lead to a different value and as such it could lead to
unexpected behavior.  There are no known bugs as a result of the current
code but it is better to prevent from them in principle.

9cf38d5559 kexec: Allocate decrypted control pages for kdump if SME is enabled
When SME is enabled in the first kernel, it needs to allocate decrypted
pages for kdump because when the kdump kernel boots, these pages need to
be accessed decrypted in the initial boot stage, before SME is enabled.

a8311f647e kexec: yield to scheduler when loading kimage segments
Without yielding while loading kimage segments, a large initrd will
block all other work on the CPU performing the load until it is
completed.  For example loading an initrd of 200MB on a low power single
core system will lock up the system for a few seconds.

To increase system responsiveness to other tasks at that time, call
cond_resched() in both the crash kernel and normal kernel segment
loading loops.

I did run into a practical problem.  Hardware watchdogs on embedded
systems can have short timers on the order of seconds.  If the system is
locked up for a few seconds with only a single core available, the
watchdog may not be pet in a timely fashion.  If this happens, the
hardware watchdog will fire and reset the system.

This really only becomes a problem when you are working with a single
core, a decently sized initrd, and have a constrained hardware watchdog.
