flush_kernel_dcache_page is a rather confusing interface that implements a
subset of flush_dcache_page by not being able to properly handle page
cache mapped pages.
The only callers left are in the exec code as all other previous callers
were incorrect as they could have dealt with page cache pages. Replace
the calls to flush_kernel_dcache_page with calls to flush_dcache_page,
which for all architectures does either exactly the same thing, can
contains one or more of the following:
1) an optimization to defer the cache flush for page cache pages not
mapped into userspace
2) additional flushing for mapped page cache pages if cache aliases
are possible

Pull exit cleanups from Eric Biederman:
"In preparation of doing something about PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT I have
started cleaning up various pieces of code related to do_exit. Most of
that code I did not manage to get tested and reviewed before the merge
window opened but a handful of very useful cleanups are ready to be
merged.
The first change is simply the removal of the bdflush system call. The
code has now been disabled long enough that even the oldest userspace
working userspace setups anyone can find to test are fine with the
bdflush system call being removed.
Changing m68k fsp040_die to use force_sigsegv(SIGSEGV) instead of
calling do_exit directly is interesting only in that it is nearly the
most difficult of the incorrect uses of do_exit to remove.
The change to the seccomp code to simply send a signal instead of
calling do_coredump directly is a very nice little cleanup made
possible by realizing the existing signal sending helpers were missing
a little bit of functionality that is easy to provide"

The arch-specific Kconfig files use HAVE_IDE to indicate if IDE is

As IDE support and the HAVE_IDE config vanishes with commit b7fb14d3ac63
("ide: remove the legacy ide driver"), there is no need to mention
HAVE_IDE in all those arch-specific Kconfig files.

Most architectures do not need a custom implementation, and in most
cases the generic implementation is preferred, so change the polariy
on these Kconfig symbols to require architectures to select them when
they provide their own version.
The new name is CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_{STRNCPY_FROM,STRNLEN}_USER.
The remaining architectures at the moment are: ia64, mips, parisc,
um and xtensa. We should probably convert these as well, but
I was not sure how far to take this series. Thomas Bogendoerfer
had some concerns about converting mips but may still do some
more detailed measurements to see which version is better.

The bdflush system call has been deprecated for a very long time.
Recently Michael Schmitz tested[1] and found that the last known

Pull asm/unaligned.h unification from Arnd Bergmann:
"Unify asm/unaligned.h around struct helper
The get_unaligned()/put_unaligned() helpers are traditionally
architecture specific, with the two main variants being the
"access-ok.h" version that assumes unaligned pointer accesses always
work on a particular architecture, and the "le-struct.h" version that
casts the data to a byte aligned type before dereferencing, for
architectures that cannot always do unaligned accesses in hardware.
Based on the discussion linked below, it appears that the access-ok
version is not realiable on any architecture, but the struct version
probably has no downsides. This series changes the code to use the
same implementation on all architectures, addressing the few
exceptions separately"

Pull clk updates from Stephen Boyd:
"This round has a diffstat dominated by Qualcomm clk drivers. Honestly
though that's just a bunch of data so the diffstat reflects that.
Looking beyond that there's just a bunch of updates all around in
various clk drivers. Renesas and NXP (for i.MX) are two SoC vendors
that have a lot of patches in here.
Overall the driver changes look to be mostly enabling more clks and
non-critical fixes that we could hold until the next merge window.
I'm especially excited about the series from Arnd that graduates
clkdev to be the only implementation of clk_get() and clk_put().
That's a good step in the right direction to migreate eveerything over
to the common clk framework. Now we don't have to worry about clkdev
specific details, they're just part of the clk API now.
Core:
- clkdev is now the only option, i.e. clk_get()/clk_put() is
implemented in only one place in the kernel instead of in
drivers/clk/clkdev.c and in architectures that want their own
implementation
New Drivers:
- Texas Instruments' LMK04832 Ultra Low-Noise JESD204B Compliant
Clock Jitter Cleaner With Dual Loop PLLs
- Qualcomm MDM9607 GCC
- Qualcomm SC8180X display clks
- Qualcomm SM6125 GCC
- Qualcomm SM8250 CAMCC (camera)
- Renesas RZ/G2L SoC
- Hisilicon hi3559A SoC
Updates:
- Stop using clock-output-names in ST clk drivers (yay!)
- Support secure mode of STM32MP1 SoCs
- Improve clock support for Actions S500 SoC
- duty cycle setting support on qcom clks
- Add TI am33xx spread spectrum clock support
- Use determine_rate() for the Amlogic pll ops instead of
round_rate()
- Restrict Amlogic gp0/1 and audio plls range on g12a/sm1
- Improve Amlogic axg-audio controller error on deferral
- Add NNA clocks on Amlogic g12a

Currently most platforms define pmd_pgtable() as pmd_page() duplicating
the same code all over. Instead just define a default value i.e
pmd_page() for pmd_pgtable() and let platforms override when required via
<asm/pgtable.h>. All the existing platform that override pmd_pgtable()
have been moved into their respective <asm/pgtable.h> header in order to
precede before the new generic definition. This makes it much cleaner
with reduced code.

Currently most platforms define FIRST_USER_ADDRESS as 0UL duplication the
same code all over. Instead just define a generic default value (i.e 0UL)
for FIRST_USER_ADDRESS and let the platforms override when required. This
makes it much cleaner with reduced code.
The default FIRST_USER_ADDRESS here would be skipped in <linux/pgtable.h>
when the given platform overrides its value via <asm/pgtable.h>.

configuration options are equivalent.
Drop CONFIG_NEED_MULTIPLE_NODES and use CONFIG_NUMA instead.
Done with
$ sed -i 's/CONFIG_NEED_MULTIPLE_NODES/CONFIG_NUMA/' \
$(git grep -wl CONFIG_NEED_MULTIPLE_NODES)
$ sed -i 's/NEED_MULTIPLE_NODES/NUMA/' \
$(git grep -wl NEED_MULTIPLE_NODES)
with manual tweaks afterwards.

Pull scheduler udpates from Ingo Molnar:
- Changes to core scheduling facilities:
- Add "Core Scheduling" via CONFIG_SCHED_CORE=y, which enables
coordinated scheduling across SMT siblings. This is a much
requested feature for cloud computing platforms, to allow the
flexible utilization of SMT siblings, without exposing untrusted
domains to information leaks & side channels, plus to ensure more
deterministic computing performance on SMT systems used by
heterogenous workloads.
There are new prctls to set core scheduling groups, which allows
more flexible management of workloads that can share siblings.
- Fix task->state access anti-patterns that may result in missed
wakeups and rename it to ->__state in the process to catch new
abuses.
- Load-balancing changes:
- Tweak newidle_balance for fair-sched, to improve 'memcache'-like
workloads.
- "Age" (decay) average idle time, to better track & improve
workloads such as 'tbench'.
- Fix & improve energy-aware (EAS) balancing logic & metrics.
- Fix & improve the uclamp metrics.
- Fix task migration (taskset) corner case on !CONFIG_CPUSET.
- Fix RT and deadline utilization tracking across policy changes
- Introduce a "burstable" CFS controller via cgroups, which allows
bursty CPU-bound workloads to borrow a bit against their future
quota to improve overall latencies & batching. Can be tweaked via
/sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/<X>/cpu.cfs_burst_us.
- Rework assymetric topology/capacity detection & handling.
- Scheduler statistics & tooling:
- Disable delayacct by default, but add a sysctl to enable it at
runtime if tooling needs it. Use static keys and other
optimizations to make it more palatable.
- Use sched_clock() in delayacct, instead of ktime_get_ns().
- Misc cleanups and fixes.

Kprobes has a counter 'nmissed', that is used to count the number of
times a probe handler was not called. This generally happens when we hit
a kprobe while handling another kprobe.
However, if one of the probe handlers causes a fault, we are currently
incrementing 'nmissed'. The comment in fault handler indicates that this
can be used to account faults taken by the probe handlers. But, this has
never been the intention as is evident from the comment above 'nmissed'
in 'struct kprobe':
/*count the number of times this probe was temporarily disarmed */
unsigned long nmissed;

The reason for kprobe::fault_handler(), as given by their comment:
* We come here because instructions in the pre/post
* handler caused the page_fault, this could happen
* if handler tries to access user space by
* copy_from_user(), get_user() etc. Let the
* user-specified handler try to fix it first.
Is just plain bad. Those other handlers are ran from non-preemptible
context and had better use _nofault() functions. Also, there is no
upstream usage of this.

We'd like all architectures to convert to ARCH_ATOMIC, as once all
architectures are converted it will be possible to make significant
cleanups to the atomics headers, and this will make it much easier to
generically enable atomic functionality (e.g. debug logic in the
instrumented wrappers).
As a step towards that, this patch migrates sh to ARCH_ATOMIC. The
arch code provides arch_{atomic,atomic64,xchg,cmpxchg}*(), and common
code wraps these with optional instrumentation to provide the regular
functions.

Pull quota fixes from Jan Kara:
"The most important part in the pull is disablement of the new syscall
quotactl_path() which was added in rc1.
The reason is some people at LWN discussion pointed out dirfd would be
useful for this path based syscall and Christian Brauner agreed.
Without dirfd it may be indeed problematic for containers. So let's
just disable the syscall for now when it doesn't have users yet so
that we have more time to mull over how to best specify the filesystem
we want to work on"

|

In commit fa8b90070a80 ("quota: wire up quotactl_path") we have wired up
new quotactl_path syscall. However some people in LWN discussion have
objected that the path based syscall is missing dirfd and flags argument
which is mostly standard for contemporary path based syscalls. Indeed
they have a point and after a discussion with Christian Brauner and
Sascha Hauer I've decided to disable the syscall for now and update its
API. Since there is no userspace currently using that syscall and it
hasn't been released in any major release, we should be fine.

As pointed out by commit
de9b8f5dcbd9 ("sched: Fix crash trying to dequeue/enqueue the idle thread")
init_idle() can and will be invoked more than once on the same idle
task. At boot time, it is invoked for the boot CPU thread by
sched_init(). Then smp_init() creates the threads for all the secondary
CPUs and invokes init_idle() on them.
As the hotplug machinery brings the secondaries to life, it will issue
calls to idle_thread_get(), which itself invokes init_idle() yet again.
In this case it's invoked twice more per secondary: at _cpu_up(), and at
bringup_cpu().
Given smp_init() already initializes the idle tasks for all *possible*
CPUs, no further initialization should be required. Now, removing
init_idle() from idle_thread_get() exposes some interesting expectations
with regards to the idle task's preempt_count: the secondary startup always
issues a preempt_disable(), requiring some reset of the preempt count to 0
between hot-unplug and hotplug, which is currently served by
idle_thread_get() -> idle_init().
Given the idle task is supposed to have preemption disabled once and never
see it re-enabled, it seems that what we actually want is to initialize its
preempt_count to PREEMPT_DISABLED and leave it there. Do that, and remove
init_idle() from idle_thread_get().
Secondary startups were patched via coccinelle:

Unlike every other architecture, sh4a uses an inline asm implementation
for get_unaligned(). I have shown that this produces better object
code than the asm-generic version. However, there are very few users of
arch/sh/ overall, and most of those seem to use sh4 rather than sh4a CPU
cores, so it seems not worth keeping the complexity in the architecture
independent code.
Change over to the generic version to allow simplifying that in a
follow-up patch.
If there are sh4a users that want the best performance, it would probably
be best to add support for the movua instruction in gcc itself, as this
would not just help get_unaligned() callers but any code that accesses
a __packed variable in user space or kernel.

Patch series "drivers/char: remove /dev/kmem for good".
Exploring /dev/kmem and /dev/mem in the context of memory hot(un)plug and
memory ballooning, I started questioning the existence of /dev/kmem.
Comparing it with the /proc/kcore implementation, it does not seem to be
able to deal with things like
a) Pages unmapped from the direct mapping (e.g., to be used by secretmem)
-> kern_addr_valid(). virt_addr_valid() is not sufficient.
b) Special cases like gart aperture memory that is not to be touched
-> mem_pfn_is_ram()
Unless I am missing something, it's at least broken in some cases and might
fault/crash the machine.
Looks like its existence has been questioned before in 2005 and 2010 [1],
after ~11 additional years, it might make sense to revive the discussion.
CONFIG_DEVKMEM is only enabled in a single defconfig (on purpose or by
mistake?). All distributions disable it: in Ubuntu it has been disabled
for more than 10 years, in Debian since 2.6.31, in Fedora at least
starting with FC3, in RHEL starting with RHEL4, in SUSE starting from
15sp2, and OpenSUSE has it disabled as well.
1) /dev/kmem was popular for rootkits [2] before it got disabled
basically everywhere. Ubuntu documents [3] "There is no modern user of
/dev/kmem any more beyond attackers using it to load kernel rootkits.".
RHEL documents in a BZ [5] "it served no practical purpose other than to
serve as a potential security problem or to enable binary module drivers
to access structures/functions they shouldn't be touching"
2) /proc/kcore is a decent interface to have a controlled way to read
kernel memory for debugging puposes. (will need some extensions to
deal with memory offlining/unplug, memory ballooning, and poisoned
pages, though)
3) It might be useful for corner case debugging [1]. KDB/KGDB might be a
better fit, especially, to write random memory; harder to shoot
yourself into the foot.
4) "Kernel Memory Editor" [4] hasn't seen any updates since 2000 and seems
to be incompatible with 64bit [1]. For educational purposes,
/proc/kcore might be used to monitor value updates -- or older
kernels can be used.
5) It's broken on arm64, and therefore, completely disabled there.
Looks like it's essentially unused and has been replaced by better
suited interfaces for individual tasks (/proc/kcore, KDB/KGDB). Let's
just remove it.

m68k and sh include bitmap/{find,le}.h prior to ffs/fls headers. New
fast-path implementation in find.h requires ffs/fls. Reordering the
headers inclusion sequence helps to prevent compile-time implicit function
declaration error.

ARCH_ENABLE_MEMORY_[HOTPLUG|HOTREMOVE] configs have duplicate
definitions on platforms that subscribe them. Instead, just make them
generic options which can be selected on applicable platforms.

SYS_SUPPORTS_HUGETLBFS config has duplicate definitions on platforms
that subscribe it. Instead, just make it a generic option which can be
selected on applicable platforms.
Also rename it as ARCH_SUPPORTS_HUGETLBFS instead. This reduces code
duplication and makes it cleaner.
