A much quieter cycle for documentation (happily), with, one hopes, the bulk
of the churn behind us. Significant stuff in this pull includes:
- A set of new Chinese translations
- Italian translation updates
- A mechanism from Mauro to automatically format Documentation/features
for the built docs
- Automatic cross references without explicit :ref: markup
- A new reset-controller document
- An extensive new document on reporting problems from Thorsten
That last patch also adds the CC-BY-4.0 license to LICENSES/dual; there was
some discussion on this, but we seem to have consensus and an ack from Greg
for that addition.

docs: Add a new text describing how to report bugs
Add a mostly finished document describing how to report issues with the Linux kernel to its developers. It is designed to be a lot more straight forward and easier to follow than the current text about this (Documentation/admin-guide/reporting-bugs.rst); at the same time the new text should be more helpful for people unfamiliar with the topic, as it provides a lot more details, too. The main work on the text is done, but some polishing is still needed. The text also needs to be reviewed by more people and a few issues still might need some discussion. To make these tasks easier, it was decided ([1]) to add this document to the kernel sources in parallel to the existing text; the latter will be removed once this text is considered good enough(tm). This document is quite long and provides a lot of details, but was carefully crafted to make sure it's can also serve people that are in a hurry. That's mainly achieved by having a TDLR and a step-by-step guide, which should be good enough for quite a lot of people. Everybody that wants or need more explanations can find them in a reference section, which describes all the needed steps in detail. Thanks to this structure the text can work for kernel developers that just need to look something up, experienced FLOSS contributors that are unfamiliar with the kernel's bug reporting workflow, and users reporting something upstream for the first time. The text is thus a bit like the kernel itself, which works well for embedded machines, a typical desktop PC, cloud servers, and HPC. The document was written in the hope it will improve the quality of the bug reports, especially those that come from people unfamiliar with how Linux kernel development works. Sadly quite a few reports from this group are currently of poor quality and/or get submitted to the wrong place. Part of the problem is the old reporting-bugs document, as it makes its essence hard to grasp; it's and also inaccurate and slightly outdated in a few spots. Due to this quite a few valid reports are ignored in the end, which is annoying for those that compiled them and bad for the kernel's quality. The document near the top points out that it's still unfinished, but nevertheless ready for consumption. Those few areas in the text that might need some further discussion contain a note pointing this out. Besides lack of review from core developers there is only one major issue left: the section 'Decode failure message' is known to be outdated: it's waiting for someone familiar with the topic to write something up or give at least provide some hints and pointers what to write there. The new document is dual-licensed under GPL-2.0+ or CC-BY-4.0. The latter is way more liberal and makes it attractive to use this text as a base when writing about this topic on websites or in books. This hopefully increases the chances that such texts are accurate and stick to official way of doing things.

powerpc fixes for CVE-2020-4788
From Daniel's cover letter: IBM Power9 processors can speculatively operate on data in the L1 cache before it has been completely validated, via a way-prediction mechanism. It is not possible for an attacker to determine the contents of impermissible memory using this method, since these systems implement a combination of hardware and software security measures to prevent scenarios where protected data could be leaked. However these measures don't address the scenario where an attacker induces the operating system to speculatively execute instructions using data that the attacker controls. This can be used for example to speculatively bypass "kernel user access prevention" techniques, as discovered by Anthony Steinhauser of Google's Safeside Project. This is not an attack by itself, but there is a possibility it could be used in conjunction with side-channels or other weaknesses in the privileged code to construct an attack.

xen/events: defer eoi in case of excessive number of events
In case rogue guests are sending events at high frequency it might happen that xen_evtchn_do_upcall() won't stop processing events in dom0. As this is done in irq handling a crash might be the result. In order to avoid that, delay further inter-domain events after some time in xen_evtchn_do_upcall() by forcing eoi processing into a worker on the same cpu, thus inhibiting new events coming in. The time after which eoi processing is to be delayed is configurable via a new module parameter "event_loop_timeout" which specifies the maximum event loop time in jiffies (default: 2, the value was chosen after some tests showing that a value of 2 was the lowest with an only slight drop of dom0 network throughput while multiple guests performed an event storm). How long eoi processing will be delayed can be specified via another parameter "event_eoi_delay" (again in jiffies, default 10, again the value was chosen after testing with different delay values). This is part of XSA-332.

Recalling the first round of new code for 5.10, in which we added:
- New feature: Widen inode timestamps and quota grace expiration
timestamps to support dates through the year 2486.
- New feature: storing inode btree counts in the AGI to speed up certain
mount time per-AG block reservation operatoins and add a little more
metadata redundancy.
For the second round of new code for 5.10:
- Deprecate the V4 filesystem format, some disused mount options, and some
legacy sysctl knobs now that we can support dates into the 25th century.
Note that removal of V4 support will not happen until the early 2030s.
- Fix some probles with inode realtime flag propagation.
- Fix some buffer handling issues when growing a rt filesystem.
- Fix a problem where a BMAP_REMAP unmap call would free rt extents even
though the purpose of BMAP_REMAP is to avoid freeing the blocks.
- Strengthen the dabtree online scrubber to check hash values on child
dabtree blocks.
- Actually log new intent items created as part of recovering log intent
items.
- Fix a bug where quotas weren't attached to an inode undergoing bmap
intent item recovery.
- Fix a buffer overrun problem with specially crafted log buffer
headers.
- Various cleanups to type usage and slightly inaccurate comments.
- More cleanups to the xattr, log, and quota code.
- Don't run the (slower) shared-rmap operations on attr fork mappings.
- Fix a bug where we failed to check the LSN of finobt blocks during
replay and could therefore overwrite newer data with older data.
- Clean up the ugly nested transaction mess that log recovery uses to
stage intent item recovery in the correct order by creating a proper
data structure to capture recovered chains.
- Use the capture structure to resume intent item chains with the
same log space and block reservations as when they were captured.
- Fix a UAF bug in bmap intent item recovery where we failed to maintain
our reference to the incore inode if the bmap operation needed to
relog itself to continue.
- Rearrange the defer ops mechanism to finish newly created subtasks
of a parent task before moving on to the next parent task.
- Automatically relog intent items in deferred ops chains if doing so
would help us avoid pinning the log tail. This will help fix some
log scaling problems now and will facilitate atomic file updates later.
- Fix a deadlock in the GETFSMAP implementation by using an internal
memory buffer to reduce indirect calls and copies to userspace,
thereby improving its performance by ~20%.
- Fix various problems when calling growfs on a realtime volume would
not fully update the filesystem metadata.
- Fix broken Kconfig asking about deprecated XFS when XFS is disabled.

Merge tag 'xfs-5.10-merge-5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/xfs/xfs-linux
Pull more xfs updates from Darrick Wong:
"The second large pile of new stuff for 5.10, with changes even more
monumental than last week!
We are formally announcing the deprecation of the V4 filesystem format
in 2030. All users must upgrade to the V5 format, which contains
design improvements that greatly strengthen metadata validation,
supports reflink and online fsck, and is the intended vehicle for
handling timestamps past 2038. We're also deprecating the old Irix
behavioral tweaks in September 2025.
Coming along for the ride are two design changes to the deferred
metadata ops subsystem. One of the improvements is to retain correct
logical ordering of tasks and subtasks, which is a more logical design
for upper layers of XFS and will become necessary when we add atomic
file range swaps and commits. The second improvement to deferred ops
improves the scalability of the log by helping the log tail to move
forward during long-running operations. This reduces log contention
when there are a large number of threads trying to run transactions.
In addition to that, this fixes numerous small bugs in log recovery;
refactors logical intent log item recovery to remove the last
remaining place in XFS where we could have nested transactions; fixes
a couple of ways that intent log item recovery could fail in ways that
wouldn't have happened in the regular commit paths; fixes a deadlock
vector in the GETFSMAP implementation (which improves its performance
by 20%); and fixes serious bugs in the realtime growfs, fallocate, and
bitmap handling code.
Summary:
- Deprecate the V4 filesystem format, some disused mount options, and
some legacy sysctl knobs now that we can support dates into the
25th century. Note that removal of V4 support will not happen until
the early 2030s.
- Fix some probles with inode realtime flag propagation.
- Fix some buffer handling issues when growing a rt filesystem.
- Fix a problem where a BMAP_REMAP unmap call would free rt extents
even though the purpose of BMAP_REMAP is to avoid freeing the

- Strengthen the dabtree online scrubber to check hash values on
child dabtree blocks.
- Actually log new intent items created as part of recovering log
intent items.

intent item recovery.

"A series of patches addressing warnings produced by make htmldocs.
This includes:
- kernel-doc markup fixes
- ReST fixes
- Updates at the build system in order to support newer versions of
the docs build toolchain (Sphinx)
After this series, the number of html build warnings should reduce
significantly, and building with Sphinx 3.1 or later should now be
supported (although it is still recommended to use Sphinx 2.4.4).
As agreed with Jon, I should be sending you a late pull request by the
end of the merge window addressing remaining issues with docs build,
as there are a number of warning fixes that depends on pull requests
that should be happening along the merge window.
The end goal is to have a clean htmldocs build on Kernel 5.10.
PS. It should be noticed that Sphinx 3.0 is not currently supported,
as it lacks support for C domain namespaces. Such feature, needed in
order to document uAPI system calls with Sphinx 3.x, was added only on
Sphinx 3.1"

lib, include/linux: add usercopy failure capability
Patch series "add fault injection to user memory access", v3. The goal of this series is to improve testing of fault-tolerance in usages of user memory access functions, by adding support for fault injection. syzkaller/syzbot are using the existing fault injection modes and will use this particular feature also. The first patch adds failure injection capability for usercopy functions. The second changes usercopy functions to use this new failure capability (copy_from_user, ...). The third patch adds get/put/clear_user failures to x86. This patch (of 3): Add a failure injection capability to improve testing of fault-tolerance in usages of user memory access functions. Add CONFIG_FAULT_INJECTION_USERCOPY to enable faults in usercopy functions. The should_fail_usercopy function is to be called by these functions (copy_from_user, get_user, ...) in order to fail or not.

networking changes for the 5.10 merge window
Add redirect_neigh() BPF packet redirect helper, allowing to limit stack traversal in common container configs and improving TCP back-pressure. Daniel reports ~10Gbps => ~15Gbps single stream TCP performance gain. Expand netlink policy support and improve policy export to user space. (Ge)netlink core performs request validation according to declared policies. Expand the expressiveness of those policies (min/max length and bitmasks). Allow dumping policies for particular commands. This is used for feature discovery by user space (instead of kernel version parsing or trial and error). Support IGMPv3/MLDv2 multicast listener discovery protocols in bridge. Allow more than 255 IPv4 multicast interfaces. Add support for Type of Service (ToS) reflection in SYN/SYN-ACK packets of TCPv6. In Multi-patch TCP (MPTCP) support concurrent transmission of data on multiple subflows in a load balancing scenario. Enhance advertising addresses via the RM_ADDR/ADD_ADDR options. Support SMC-Dv2 version of SMC, which enables multi-subnet deployments. Allow more calls to same peer in RxRPC. Support two new Controller Area Network (CAN) protocols - CAN-FD and ISO 15765-2:2016. Add xfrm/IPsec compat layer, solving the 32bit user space on 64bit kernel problem. Add TC actions for implementing MPLS L2 VPNs. Improve nexthop code - e.g. handle various corner cases when nexthop objects are removed from groups better, skip unnecessary notifications and make it easier to offload nexthops into HW by converting to a blocking notifier. Support adding and consuming TCP header options by BPF programs, opening the doors for easy experimental and deployment-specific TCP option use. Reorganize TCP congestion control (CC) initialization to simplify life of TCP CC implemented in BPF. Add support for shipping BPF programs with the kernel and loading them early on boot via the User Mode Driver mechanism, hence reusing all the user space infra we have. Support sleepable BPF programs, initially targeting LSM and tracing. Add bpf_d_path() helper for returning full path for given 'struct path'. Make bpf_tail_call compatible with bpf-to-bpf calls. Allow BPF programs to call map_update_elem on sockmaps. Add BPF Type Format (BTF) support for type and enum discovery, as well as support for using BTF within the kernel itself (current use is for pretty printing structures). Support listing and getting information about bpf_links via the bpf syscall. Enhance kernel interfaces around NIC firmware update. Allow specifying overwrite mask to control if settings etc. are reset during update; report expected max time operation may take to users; support firmware activation without machine reboot incl. limits of how much impact reset may have (e.g. dropping link or not). Extend ethtool configuration interface to report IEEE-standard counters, to limit the need for per-vendor logic in user space. Adopt or extend devlink use for debug, monitoring, fw update in many drivers (dsa loop, ice, ionic, sja1105, qed, mlxsw, mv88e6xxx, dpaa2-eth). In mlxsw expose critical and emergency SFP module temperature alarms. Refactor port buffer handling to make the defaults more suitable and support setting these values explicitly via the DCBNL interface. Add XDP support for Intel's igb driver. Support offloading TC flower classification and filtering rules to mscc_ocelot switches. Add PTP support for Marvell Octeontx2 and PP2.2 hardware, as well as fixed interval period pulse generator and one-step timestamping in dpaa-eth. Add support for various auth offloads in WiFi APs, e.g. SAE (WPA3) offload. Add Lynx PHY/PCS MDIO module, and convert various drivers which have this HW to use it. Convert mvpp2 to split PCS. Support Marvell Prestera 98DX3255 24-port switch ASICs, as well as 7-port Mediatek MT7531 IP. Add initial support for QCA6390 and IPQ6018 in ath11k WiFi driver, and wcn3680 support in wcn36xx. Improve performance for packets which don't require much offloads on recent Mellanox NICs by 20% by making multiple packets share a descriptor entry. Move chelsio inline crypto drivers (for TLS and IPsec) from the crypto subtree to drivers/net. Move MDIO drivers out of the phy directory. Clean up a lot of W=1 warnings, reportedly the actively developed subsections of networking drivers should now build W=1 warning free. Make sure drivers don't use in_interrupt() to dynamically adapt their code. Convert tasklets to use new tasklet_setup API (sadly this conversion is not yet complete).

Daniel reports ~10Gbps => ~15Gbps single stream TCP performance gain. - Expand netlink policy support and improve policy export to user space. (Ge)netlink core performs request validation according to declared policies. Expand the expressiveness of those policies (min/max length and bitmasks). Allow dumping policies for particular commands. This is used for feature discovery by user space (instead of kernel version parsing or trial and error). - Support IGMPv3/MLDv2 multicast listener discovery protocols in bridge. - Allow more than 255 IPv4 multicast interfaces. - Add support for Type of Service (ToS) reflection in SYN/SYN-ACK packets of TCPv6. - In Multi-patch TCP (MPTCP) support concurrent transmission of data on multiple subflows in a load balancing scenario. Enhance advertising addresses via the RM_ADDR/ADD_ADDR options. - Support SMC-Dv2 version of SMC, which enables multi-subnet deployments. - Allow more calls to same peer in RxRPC. - Support two new Controller Area Network (CAN) protocols - CAN-FD and ISO 15765-2:2016. - Add xfrm/IPsec compat layer, solving the 32bit user space on 64bit kernel problem. - Add TC actions for implementing MPLS L2 VPNs. - Improve nexthop code - e.g. handle various corner cases when nexthop objects are removed from groups better, skip unnecessary notifications and make it easier to offload nexthops into HW by converting to a blocking notifier. - Support adding and consuming TCP header options by BPF programs, opening the doors for easy experimental and deployment-specific TCP option use. - Reorganize TCP congestion control (CC) initialization to simplify life of TCP CC implemented in BPF. - Add support for shipping BPF programs with the kernel and loading them early on boot via the User Mode Driver mechanism, hence reusing all the user space infra we have. - Support sleepable BPF programs, initially targeting LSM and tracing. - Add bpf_d_path() helper for returning full path for given 'struct path'. - Make bpf_tail_call compatible with bpf-to-bpf calls. - Allow BPF programs to call map_update_elem on sockmaps. - Add BPF Type Format (BTF) support for type and enum discovery, as well as support for using BTF within the kernel itself (current use is for pretty printing structures). - Support listing and getting information about bpf_links via the bpf syscall. - Enhance kernel interfaces around NIC firmware update. Allow specifying overwrite mask to control if settings etc. are reset during update; report expected max time operation may take to users; support firmware activation without machine reboot incl. limits of how much impact reset may have (e.g. dropping link or not). - Extend ethtool configuration interface to report IEEE-standard counters, to limit the need for per-vendor logic in user space. - Adopt or extend devlink use for debug, monitoring, fw update in many drivers (dsa loop, ice, ionic, sja1105, qed, mlxsw, mv88e6xxx, dpaa2-eth). - In mlxsw expose critical and emergency SFP module temperature alarms.

docs: pstore-blk.rst: fix kernel-doc tags
There is currently a problem with kernel-doc tags from blk.c: .../Documentation/admin-guide/pstore-blk:239: ./fs/pstore/blk.c:175: WARNING: Duplicate C declaration, also defined in 'admin-guide/pstore-blk'. Declaration is 'register_pstore_device'. .../Documentation/admin-guide/pstore-blk:239: ./fs/pstore/blk.c:432: WARNING: Duplicate C declaration, also defined in 'admin-guide/pstore-blk'.

Declaration is 'pstore_device_info'. Basically, the internal parts is shown with :export:, instead of :internal:. Yet, there are some other exported docs that aren't at the document, because they lack :identifiers:. So, instead, let's just use :export: at the kAPI part of the documentation.

docs: remove some replace macros like |struct foo|
There are three files with replace macros for structs, mapping them into Sphinx 2.x C domain references. Well, this is broken on Sphinx 3.x. Also, for Sphinx 2.x, the automarkup macro should be able to take care of them. So, let's just drop those. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+huawei@kernel.org> |
