As discussed at LSF/MM [1] [2] and with no objections raised there,
deprecate the SLAB allocator. Rename the user-visible option so that
users with CONFIG_SLAB=y get a new prompt with explanation during make
oldconfig, while make olddefconfig will just switch to SLUB.
In all defconfigs with CONFIG_SLAB=y remove the line so those also
switch to SLUB. Regressions due to the switch should be reported to
linux-mm and slab maintainers.

Since we no longer (want to) export any libc symbols the
_user portions of any drivers need to be built into image
rather than the module. I missed this for the watchdog.
Fix the watchdog accordingly.

There's a lot of code here that hard-codes that the

be sufficient, but to make it easier to change this
in the future, add a new STUB_DATA_PAGES constant
and use it throughout the code.

Since printf() cannot be used in kernel threads (it
uses too much stack space) don't export it for modules
either.
This should leave us exporting only things that are
absolutely critical (such as memset and friends) and
things that are injected by the compiler (stack guard
and similar.)

Instead of exporting the set of functions provided by
glibc that are needed for hostfs_user.c, just build that
into the kernel image whenever hostfs is built, and then
export _those_ functions cleanly, to be independent of
the libc implementation.

This driver registers PCI busses, but the underlying virtio protocol
could just as easily be used to provide a platform bus instead. If the
virtio device node in the devicetree indicates that it's compatible with
simple-bus, register platform devices instead of handling it as a PCI
bus.
Only one platform bus is allowed and the logic MMIO region for the
platform bus is placed at an arbitrarily-chosen address away from the
PCI region.

There is a hard coded maximum time for which the driver busy-loops

CONFIG_RUST currently supports x86_64, but does not support it under
UML. With the previous patches applied, adding support is trivial:
add CONFIG_HAVE_RUST to UML if X86_64 is set.
The scripts/generate_rust_target.rs file already checks for
CONFIG_X86_64, not CONFIG_X86, so is prepared for UML support.
The Rust support does not currently support X86_32.
Also, update the Rust architecture support documentation to not that

I added $(srctree)/ to some included Makefiles in the following commits:
- 3204a7fb98 ("kbuild: prefix $(srctree)/ to some included Makefiles")
- d828563955 ("kbuild: do not require sub-make for separate output tree builds")
They were a preparation for removing --include-dir flag.
I have never thought --include-dir useful. Rather, it _is_ harmful.
For example, run the following commands:
$ make -s ARCH=x86 mrproper defconfig
$ make ARCH=arm O=foo dtbs
make[1]: Entering directory '/tmp/linux/foo'
HOSTCC scripts/basic/fixdep
Error: kernelrelease not valid - run 'make prepare' to update it
UPD include/config/kernel.release
make[1]: Leaving directory '/tmp/linux/foo'
The first command configures the source tree for x86. The next command
tries to build ARM device trees in the separate foo/ directory - this
must stop because the directory foo/ has not been configured yet.
However, due to --include-dir=$(abs_srctree), the top Makefile includes
the wrong include/config/auto.conf from the source tree and continues
building. Kbuild traverses the directory tree, but of course it does
not work correctly. The Error message is also pointless - 'make prepare'
does not help at all for fixing the issue.
This commit fixes more arch Makefile, and finally removes --include-dir
from the top Makefile.
There are more breakages under drivers/, but I do not volunteer to fix
them all. I just moved --include-dir to drivers/Makefile.
With this commit, the second command will stop with a sensible message.
$ make -s ARCH=x86 mrproper defconfig
$ make ARCH=arm O=foo dtbs
make[1]: Entering directory '/tmp/linux/foo'
SYNC include/config/auto.conf.cmd
***

The pte_mkuptodate() is a bit weird in __pte_to_swp_entry() for a swap PTE
... but it only messes with bit 1 and 2 and there is a comment in
set_pte(), so leave these bits alone.
While at it, mask the type in __swp_entry().

Current arch_cpu_idle() is called with IRQs disabled, but will return
with IRQs enabled.
However, the very first thing the generic code does after calling
arch_cpu_idle() is raw_local_irq_disable(). This means that
architectures that can idle with IRQs disabled end up doing a
pointless 'enable-disable' dance.
Therefore, push this IRQ disabling into the idle function, meaning
that those architectures can avoid the pointless IRQ state flipping.

Skylake-based cores where enabling IBRS is a big hammer and causes a
significant performance impact.
What it basically does is, it aligns all kernel functions to 16 bytes
boundary and adds a 16-byte padding before the function, objtool
collects all functions' locations and when the mitigation gets applied,
it patches a call accounting thunk which is used to track the call depth
of the stack at any time.
When that call depth reaches a magical, microarchitecture-specific value
for the Return Stack Buffer, the code stuffs that RSB and avoids its
underflow which could otherwise lead to the Intel variant of Retbleed.

Merge tag 'random-6.2-rc1-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/crng/random
Pull random number generator updates from Jason Donenfeld:
- Replace prandom_u32_max() and various open-coded variants of it,
there is now a new family of functions that uses fast rejection
sampling to choose properly uniformly random numbers within an
interval:
get_random_u32_below(ceil) - [0, ceil)
get_random_u32_above(floor) - (floor, U32_MAX]
get_random_u32_inclusive(floor, ceil) - [floor, ceil]
Coccinelle was used to convert all current users of
prandom_u32_max(), as well as many open-coded patterns, resulting in
improvements throughout the tree.
I'll have a "late" 6.1-rc1 pull for you that removes the now unused
prandom_u32_max() function, just in case any other trees add a new
use case of it that needs to converted. According to linux-next,
there may be two trivial cases of prandom_u32_max() reintroductions
that are fixable with a 's/.../.../'. So I'll have for you a final
conversion patch doing that alongside the removal patch during the
second week.
This is a treewide change that touches many files throughout.
- More consistent use of get_random_canary().
- Updates to comments, documentation, tests, headers, and
simplification in configuration.
- The arch_get_random*_early() abstraction was only used by arm64 and
wasn't entirely useful, so this has been replaced by code that works
in all relevant contexts.
- The kernel will use and manage random seeds in non-volatile EFI
variables, refreshing a variable with a fresh seed when the RNG is
initialized. The RNG GUID namespace is then hidden from efivarfs to
prevent accidental leakage.
These changes are split into random.c infrastructure code used in the
EFI subsystem, in this pull request, and related support inside of
EFISTUB, in Ard's EFI tree. These are co-dependent for full
functionality, but the order of merging doesn't matter.
- Part of the infrastructure added for the EFI support is also used for
an improvement to the way vsprintf initializes its siphash key,
replacing an sleep loop wart.
- The hardware RNG framework now always calls its correct random.c
input function, add_hwgenerator_randomness(), rather than sometimes
going through helpers better suited for other cases.
- The add_latent_entropy() function has long been called from the fork
handler, but is a no-op when the latent entropy gcc plugin isn't
used, which is fine for the purposes of latent entropy.
But it was missing out on the cycle counter that was also being mixed
in beside the latent entropy variable. So now, if the latent entropy
gcc plugin isn't enabled, add_latent_entropy() will expand to a call
to add_device_randomness(NULL, 0), which adds a cycle counter,
without the absent latent entropy variable.
- The RNG is now reseeded from a delayed worker, rather than on demand
when used. Always running from a worker allows it to make use of the
CPU RNG on platforms like S390x, whose instructions are too slow to
do so from interrupts. It also has the effect of adding in new inputs
more frequently with more regularity, amounting to a long term
transcript of random values. Plus, it helps a bit with the upcoming
vDSO implementation (which isn't yet ready for 6.2).
- The jitter entropy algorithm now tries to execute on many different
CPUs, round-robining, in hopes of hitting even more memory latencies
and other unpredictable effects. It also will mix in a cycle counter
when the entropy timer fires, in addition to being mixed in from the
main loop, to account more explicitly for fluctuations in that timer
firing. And the state it touches is now kept within the same cache
line, so that it's assured that the different execution contexts will
cause latencies.
