Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
"Livepatch support for 32-bit is probably the standout new feature,
otherwise mostly just lots of bits and pieces all over the board.
There's a series of commits cleaning up function descriptor handling,
which touches a few other arches as well as LKDTM. It has acks from
Arnd, Kees and Helge.
Summary:
- Enforce kernel RO, and implement STRICT_MODULE_RWX for 603.
- Add support for livepatch to 32-bit.
- Implement CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS.
- Merge vdso64 and vdso32 into a single directory.
- Fix build errors with newer binutils.
- Add support for UADDR64 relocations, which are emitted by some
toolchains. This allows powerpc to build with the latest lld.
- Fix (another) potential userspace r13 corruption in transactional
memory handling.
- Cleanups of function descriptor handling & related fixes to LKDTM.

"There are three sets of updates for 5.18 in the asm-generic tree:
- The set_fs()/get_fs() infrastructure gets removed for good.
This was already gone from all major architectures, but now we can
finally remove it everywhere, which loses some particularly tricky

parisc cleanup, the solution is to use their new version.
- The nds32 architecture ends its tenure in the Linux kernel.
The hardware is still used and the code is in reasonable shape, but
the mainline port is not actively maintained any more, as all

be updated to a future release.

The get_current() code uses the mfctl() macro to get the pointer to the
current task struct from %cr30. The problem with the mfctl() macro is,
that it is marked volatile which is basically correct, because mfctl()
is used to get e.g. the current internal timer or interrupt flags as
well.
But specifically the task struct pointer (%cr30) doesn't change over
time when the kernel executes code for a task.
So, by dropping the volatile when retrieving %cr30 the compiler is now
able to get this value only once and optimize the generated code a lot.
A bloat-o-meter comparism shows that this patch saves ~5kB kernel code
on a 32-bit kernel and ~6kB kernel code on a 64-bit kernel.

Add minimal vDSO support, which provides the signal trampoline helpers,
but none of the userspace syscall helpers like time wrappers.
The big benefit of this vDSO implementation is, that we now don't need
an executeable stack any longer. PA-RISC is one of the last
architectures where an executeable stack was needed in oder to implement
the signal trampolines by putting assembly instructions on the stack
which then gets executed. Instead the kernel will provide the relevant
code in the vDSO page and only put the pointers to the signal
information on the stack.
By dropping the need for executable stacks we avoid running into issues
with applications which want non executable stacks for security reasons.
Additionally, alternative stacks on memory areas without exec
permissions are supported too.
This code is based on an initial implementation by Randolph Chung from 2006:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-parisc/[email protected]/
I did the porting and lifted the code to current code base. Dave fixed
the unwind code so that gdb and glibc are able to backtrace through the
code. An additional patch to gdb will be pushed upstream by Dave.

Currently, the parisc kernel does not fully support non-access TLB
fault handling for probe instructions. In the fast path, we set the
target register to zero if it is not a shadowed register. The slow
path is not implemented, so we call do_page_fault. The architecture
indicates that non-access faults should not cause a page fault from
disk.
This change adds to code to provide non-access fault support for
probe instructions. It also modifies the handling of faults on
userspace so that if the address lies in a valid VMA and the access
type matches that for the VMA, the probe target register is set to
one. Otherwise, the target register is set to zero.
This was done to make probe instructions more useful for userspace.
Probe instructions are not very useful if they set the target register
to zero whenever a page is not present in memory. Nominally, the
purpose of the probe instruction is determine whether read or write
access to a given address is allowed.
This fixes a problem in function pointer comparison noticed in the
glibc testsuite (stdio-common/tst-vfprintf-user-type). The same
problem is likely in glibc (_dl_lookup_address).
V2 adds flush and lpa instruction support to handle_nadtlb_fault.

There are no remaining callers of set_fs(), so CONFIG_SET_FS
can be removed globally, along with the thread_info field and
any references to it.
This turns access_ok() into a cheaper check against TASK_SIZE_MAX.
As CONFIG_SET_FS is now gone, drop all remaining references to
set_fs()/get_fs(), mm_segment_t, user_addr_max() and uaccess_kernel().

There are many different ways that access_ok() is defined across
architectures, but in the end, they all just compare against the
user_addr_max() value or they accept anything.
Provide one definition that works for most architectures, checking
against TASK_SIZE_MAX for user processes or skipping the check inside
of uaccess_kernel() sections.
For architectures without CONFIG_SET_FS(), this should be the fastest
check, as it comes down to a single comparison of a pointer against a
compile-time constant, while the architecture specific versions tend to
do something more complex for historic reasons or get something wrong.
Type checking for __user annotations is handled inconsistently across
architectures, but this is easily simplified as well by using an inline
function that takes a 'const void __user *' argument. A handful of
callers need an extra __user annotation for this.
Some architectures had trick to use 33-bit or 65-bit arithmetic on the
addresses to calculate the overflow, however this simpler version uses
fewer registers, which means it can produce better object code in the
end despite needing a second (statically predicted) branch.

After commit 4b9d2a731c3d ("parisc: Switch user access functions
to signal errors in r29 instead of r8") bash suddenly started
to report those warnings after login:
-bash: cannot set terminal process group (-1): Bad file descriptor
-bash: no job control in this shell
It turned out, that a function call inside a put_user(), e.g.:
put_user(vt_do_kdgkbmode(console), (int __user *)arg);
clobbered the error register (r29) and thus the put_user() call itself
seem to have failed.
Rearrange the C-code to pre-calculate the intermediate value
and then do the put_user().
Additionally prefer the "+" constraint on pu_err and gu_err registers
to tell the compiler that those operands are both read and written by
the assembly instruction.

The parisc architecture lacks general hardware support for compare and swap.
Particularly for userspace, it is difficult to implement software atomic
support. Page faults in critical regions can cause processes to sleep and
block the forward progress of other processes. Thus, it is essential that
page faults be disabled in critical regions. For performance reasons, we
also need to disable external interrupts in critical regions.
In order to do this, we need a mechanism to trigger COW breaks outside the
critical region. Fortunately, parisc has the "stbys,e" instruction. When
the leftmost byte of a word is addressed, this instruction triggers all
the exceptions of a normal store but it does not write to memory. Thus,
we can use it to trigger COW breaks outside the critical region without
modifying the data that is to be updated atomically.
COW breaks occur randomly. So even if we have priviously executed a "stbys,e"
instruction, we still need to disable pagefaults around the critical region.
If a fault occurs in the critical region, we return -EAGAIN. I had to add
a wrapper around _arch_futex_atomic_op_inuser() as I found in testing that
returning -EAGAIN caused problems for some processes even though it is
listed as a possible return value.
The patch implements the above. The code no longer attempts to sleep with
interrupts disabled and I haven't seen any stalls with the change.
I have attempted to merge common code and streamline the fast path. In the
futex code, we only compute the spinlock address once.
I eliminated some debug code in the original CAS routine that just made the
flow more complicated.
I don't clip the arguments when called from wide mode. As a result, the LWS
routines should work when called from 64-bit processes.
I defined TASK_PAGEFAULT_DISABLED offset for use in the lws_pagefault_disable
and lws_pagefault_enable macros.
Since we now disable interrupts on the gateway page where necessary, it
might be possible to allow processes to be scheduled when they are on the
gateway page.
Change has been tested on c8000 and rp3440. It improves glibc build and test
time by about 10%.
In v2, I removed the lws_atomic_xchg and and lws_atomic_store calls. I
also removed the bug fixes that were not directly related to this patch.
In v3, I removed the code to force interruptions from
arch_futex_atomic_op_inuser(). It is always called with page faults
disabled, so this code had no effect.
In v4, I fixed a typo in depi_safe line.
In v5, I moved the code to disable/enable page faults inside the spinlocks.

Use register r29 instead of register r8 to signal faults when accessing
user memory. In case of faults, the fixup routine will store -EFAULT in
this register.
This change saves up to 752 bytes on a 32bit kernel, partly because the

While working on the rewrite to the light-weight syscall and futex code, I
experimented with using a hash index based on the user physical address of
atomic variable. This exposed two problems with the lpa and lpa_user defines.
Because of the copy instruction, the pa argument needs to be an early clobber
argument. This prevents gcc from allocating the va and pa arguments to the same
register.
Secondly, the lpa instruction can cause a page fault so we need to catch
exceptions.

The depi instruction is similar to the extru instruction on 64-bit machines.
It leaves the most-significant 32 bits of the target register in an undefined
state. On 64-bit machines, the macro uses depdi to perform safe deposits in
the least-significant 32 bits.

The address bits used to select the futex spinlock need to match those used in
the LWS code in syscall.S. The mask 0x3f8 only selects 7 bits. It should
select 8 bits.

Pull folio fixes from Matthew Wilcox:
"In the course of preparing the folio changes for iomap for next merge
window, we discovered some problems that would be nice to address now:
- Renaming multi-page folios to large folios.
mapping_multi_page_folio_support() is just a little too long, so we
settled on mapping_large_folio_support(). That meant renaming, eg
folio_test_multi() to folio_test_large().
Rename AS_THP_SUPPORT to match
- I hadn't included folio wrappers for zero_user_segments(), etc.
Also, multi-page^W^W large folio support is now independent of
CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE, so machines with HIGHMEM always need
to fall back to the out-of-line zero_user_segments().
Remove FS_THP_SUPPORT to match
- The build bots finally got round to telling me that I missed a
couple of architectures when adding flush_dcache_folio(). Christoph
suggested that we just add linux/cacheflush.h and not rely on
asm-generic/cacheflush.h"

Building allmodconfig shows errors in the gpu/drm/msm snapdragon drivers,
because a COND() define is used there which conflicts with the COND() for
PA-RISC assembly. Although the snapdragon driver isn't relevant for parisc, it
is nevertheless compiled when CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST is defined.
Move the COND() define and other PA-RISC mnemonics inside the #ifdef
__ASSEMBLY__ part to avoid this conflict.

Many architectures do not include asm-generic/cacheflush.h, so turn
the includes on their head and add linux/cacheflush.h which includes
asm/cacheflush.h.
Move the flush_dcache_folio() declaration from asm-generic/cacheflush.h
to linux/cacheflush.h and change linux/highmem.h to include
linux/cacheflush.h instead of asm/cacheflush.h so that all necessary
places will see flush_dcache_folio().
More functions should have their default implementations moved in the
future, but those are for follow-on patches. This fixes csky, sparc and
sparc64 which were missed in the commit which added flush_dcache_folio().

user page
For years, there have been random segmentation faults in userspace on
SMP PA-RISC machines. It occurred to me that this might be a problem in
set_pte_at(). MIPS and some other architectures do cache flushes when
installing PTEs with the present bit set.
Here I have adapted the code in update_mmu_cache() to flush the kernel
mapping when the kernel flush is deferred, or when the kernel mapping
may alias with the user mapping. This simplifies calls to
update_mmu_cache().
I also changed the barrier in set_pte() from a compiler barrier to a
full memory barrier. I know this change is not sufficient to fix the
problem. It might not be needed.
I have had a few days of operation with 5.14.16 to 5.15.1 and haven't
seen any random segmentation faults on rp3440 or c8000 so far.

In commit 2214c0e77259 ("parisc: Move thread_info into task struct")
PA-RISC gained support for THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK while changes were
already underway to keep the CPU field in thread_info rather than move
it into task_struct when THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK is enabled. The result is a
broken build for all PA-RISC configs that enable SMP.
So let's partially revert that commit, and get rid of the ugly hack to
get at the offset of task_struct::cpu without having to include
linux/sched.h, and put the CPU field back where it was before.

I no longer think interrupts can be disabled in the futex and cmpxchg
operations because of COW breaks. This not ideal but I suspect it's the
best we can do.
For the cmpxchg operations in syscall.S, we rely on the code to not
schedule off the gateway page. For the futex, I added code to disable
preemption.
So far, I haven't seen the warnings with the attached change but the
change is only lightly tested.

leak the raw value in case that the symbol is not resolvable.
- Make wchan() more robust and work with all kind of unwinders by

- Prevent sched_fork() from accessing an invalid sched_task_group
- Improve asymmetric packing logic
- Extend scheduler statistics to RT and DL scheduling classes and add
statistics for bandwith burst to the SCHED_FAIR class.
- Properly account SCHED_IDLE entities
- Prevent a potential deadlock when initial priority is assigned to a
newly created kthread. A recent change to plug a race between cpuset
and __sched_setscheduler() introduced a new lock dependency which is
now triggered. Break the lock dependency chain by moving the priority
assignment to the thread function.

- Improve idle balancing in general and especially for NOHZ enabled
systems.

Linux games can benefit from this interface as this is a common wait
pattern for this kind of applications.
- Add context to ww_mutex_trylock() to provide a path for i915 to
rework their eviction code step by step without making lockdep upset
until the final steps of rework are completed. It's also useful for

With this change:
- before thread_info was part of the stack and located at the beginning of the stack
- now the thread_info struct is moved and located inside the task_struct structure
- the stack is allocated and handled like the major other platforms
- drop the cpu field of thread_info and use instead the one in task_struct

Almost all PA-RISC machines have either a button that
is labeled with 'TOC' or a BMC function to trigger a TOC.
TOC is a non-maskable interrupt that is sent to the processor.
This can be used for diagnostic purposes like obtaining a
stack trace/register dump or to enter KDB/KGDB.
As an example, on my c8000, TOC can be used with:
CONFIG_KGDB=y
CONFIG_KGDB_KDB=y
and the 'kgdboc=ttyS0,115200' appended to the command line.
Press ^[( on serial console, which will enter the BMC command line,
and enter 'TOC s':
