Pull x86 shadow stack support from Dave Hansen:
"This is the long awaited x86 shadow stack support, part of Intel's
Control-flow Enforcement Technology (CET).
CET consists of two related security features: shadow stacks and
indirect branch tracking. This series implements just the shadow stack
part of this feature, and just for userspace.
The main use case for shadow stack is providing protection against
return oriented programming attacks. It works by maintaining a
secondary (shadow) stack using a special memory type that has
protections against modification. When executing a CALL instruction,
the processor pushes the return address to both the normal stack and
to the special permission shadow stack. Upon RET, the processor pops
the shadow stack copy and compares it to the normal stack copy.
For more information, refer to the links below for the earlier
versions of this patch set"

When CPU or memory is hot un/plugged, or off/onlined, the crash
elfcorehdr, which describes the CPUs and memory in the system, must also
be updated.
A new elfcorehdr is generated from the available CPUs and memory and
replaces the existing elfcorehdr. The segment containing the elfcorehdr
is identified at run-time in crash_core:crash_handle_hotplug_event().
No modifications to purgatory (see 'kexec: exclude elfcorehdr from the
segment digest') or boot_params (as the elfcorehdr= capture kernel command
line parameter pointer remains unchanged and correct) are needed, just
elfcorehdr.
For kexec_file_load(), the elfcorehdr segment size is based on NR_CPUS and
CRASH_MAX_MEMORY_RANGES in order to accommodate a growing number of CPU
and memory resources.
For kexec_load(), the userspace kexec utility needs to size the elfcorehdr
segment in the same/similar manner.
To accommodate kexec_load() syscall in the absence of kexec_file_load()
syscall support, prepare_elf_headers() and dependents are moved outside of
CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE.

Patch series "Add support for memmap on memory feature on ppc64", v8.
This patch series update memmap on memory feature to fall back to
memmap allocation outside the memory block if the alignment rules are
not met. This makes the feature more useful on architectures like
ppc64 where alignment rules are different with 64K page size.
This patch (of 6):
Instead of adding menu entry with all supported architectures, add
mm/Kconfig variable and select the same from supported architectures.
No functional change in this patch.

Arm disabled hugetlb vmemmap optimization [1] because hugetlb vmemmap
optimization includes an update of both the permissions (writeable to
read-only) and the output address (pfn) of the vmemmap ptes. That is not
supported without unmapping of pte(marking it invalid) by some
architectures.
With DAX vmemmap optimization we don't require such pte updates and
architectures can enable DAX vmemmap optimization while having hugetlb
vmemmap optimization disabled. Hence split DAX optimization support into
a different config.
s390, loongarch and riscv don't have devdax support. So the DAX config is
not enabled for them. With this change, arm64 should be able to select
DAX optimization

Add a mitigation for the speculative return address stack overflow
vulnerability found on AMD processors.
The mitigation works by ensuring all RET instructions speculate to
a controlled location, similar to how speculation is controlled in the
retpoline sequence. To accomplish this, the __x86_return_thunk forces
the CPU to mispredict every function return using a 'safe return'
sequence.
To ensure the safety of this mitigation, the kernel must ensure that the
safe return sequence is itself free from attacker interference. In Zen3
and Zen4, this is accomplished by creating a BTB alias between the
untraining function srso_untrain_ret_alias() and the safe return
function srso_safe_ret_alias() which results in evicting a potentially
poisoned BTB entry and using that safe one for all function returns.
In older Zen1 and Zen2, this is accomplished using a reinterpretation
technique similar to Retbleed one: srso_untrain_ret() and
srso_safe_ret().

Gather Data Sampling (GDS) is mitigated in microcode. However, on
systems that haven't received the updated microcode, disabling AVX
can act as a mitigation. Add a Kconfig option that uses the microcode
mitigation if available and disables AVX otherwise. Setting this
option has no effect on systems not affected by GDS. This is the
equivalent of setting gather_data_sampling=force.

Shadow stack provides protection for applications against function return
address corruption. It is active when the processor supports it, the
kernel has CONFIG_X86_SHADOW_STACK enabled, and the application is built
for the feature. This is only implemented for the 64-bit kernel. When it
is enabled, legacy non-shadow stack applications continue to work, but
without protection.
Since there is another feature that utilizes CET (Kernel IBT) that will
share implementation with shadow stacks, create CONFIG_CET to signify
that at least one CET feature is configured.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Add new feature to have function graph tracer record the return
value. Adds a new option: funcgraph-retval ; when set, will show the
return value of a function in the function graph tracer.
- Also add the option: funcgraph-retval-hex where if it is not set, and
the return value is an error code, then it will return the decimal of
the error code, otherwise it still reports the hex value.
- Add the file /sys/kernel/tracing/osnoise/per_cpu/cpu<cpu>/timerlat_fd
That when a application opens it, it becomes the task that the timer
lat tracer traces. The application can also read this file to find
out how it's being interrupted.
- Add the file /sys/kernel/tracing/available_filter_functions_addrs
that works just the same as available_filter_functions but also shows
the addresses of the functions like kallsyms, except that it gives
the address of where the fentry/mcount jump/nop is. This is used by
BPF to make it easier to attach BPF programs to ftrace hooks.

This modifies our user mode stack expansion code to always take the
mmap_lock for writing before modifying the VM layout.
It's actually something we always technically should have done, but
because we didn't strictly need it, we were being lazy ("opportunistic"
sounds so much better, doesn't it?) about things, and had this hack in
place where we would extend the stack vma in-place without doing the
proper locking.
And it worked fine. We just needed to change vm_start (or, in the case
of grow-up stacks, vm_end) and together with some special ad-hoc locking
using the anon_vma lock and the mm->page_table_lock, it all was fairly
straightforward.
That is, it was all fine until Ruihan Li pointed out that now that the
vma layout uses the maple tree code, we *really* don't just change
vm_start and vm_end any more, and the locking really is broken. Oops.
It's not actually all _that_ horrible to fix this once and for all, and
do proper locking, but it's a bit painful. We have basically three
different cases of stack expansion, and they all work just a bit
differently:
- the common and obvious case is the page fault handling. It's actually
fairly simple and straightforward, except for the fact that we have
something like 24 different versions of it, and you end up in a maze
of twisty little passages, all alike.
- the simplest case is the execve() code that creates a new stack.
There are no real locking concerns because it's all in a private new
VM that hasn't been exposed to anybody, but lockdep still can end up
unhappy if you get it wrong.
- and finally, we have GUP and page pinning, which shouldn't really be
expanding the stack in the first place, but in addition to execve()
we also use it for ptrace(). And debuggers do want to possibly access
memory under the stack pointer and thus need to be able to expand the
stack as a special case.
None of these cases are exactly complicated, but the page fault case in
particular is just repeated slightly differently many many times. And
ia64 in particular has a fairly complicated situation where you can have
both a regular grow-down stack _and_ a special grow-up stack for the
register backing store.
So to make this slightly more manageable, the bulk of this series is to
first create a helper function for the most common page fault case, and
convert all the straightforward architectures to it.
Thus the new 'lock_mm_and_find_vma()' helper function, which ends up
being used by x86, arm, powerpc, mips, riscv, alpha, arc, csky, hexagon,
loongarch, nios2, sh, sparc32, and xtensa. So we not only convert more
than half the architectures, we now have more shared code and avoid some
of those twisty little passages.
And largely due to this common helper function, the full diffstat of
this series ends up deleting more lines than it adds.
That still leaves eight architectures (ia64, m68k, microblaze, openrisc,
parisc, s390, sparc64 and um) that end up doing 'expand_stack()'
manually because they are doing something slightly different from the
normal pattern. Along with the couple of special cases in execve() and
GUP.
So there's a couple of patches that first create 'locked' helper
versions of the stack expansion functions, so that there's a obvious
path forward in the conversion. The execve() case is then actually
pretty simple, and is a nice cleanup from our old "grow-up stackls are
special, because at execve time even they grow down".
The #ifdef CONFIG_STACK_GROWSUP in that code just goes away, because
it's just more straightforward to write out the stack expansion there
manually, instead od having get_user_pages_remote() do it for us in some
situations but not others and have to worry about locking rules for GUP.
And the final step is then to just convert the remaining odd cases to a
new world order where 'expand_stack()' is called with the mmap_lock held
for reading, but where it might drop it and upgrade it to a write, only
to return with it held for reading (in the success case) or with it
completely dropped (in the failure case).
In the process, we remove all the stack expansion from GUP (where
dropping the lock wouldn't be ok without special rules anyway), and add
it in manually to __access_remote_vm() for ptrace().
Thanks to Adrian Glaubitz and Frank Scheiner who tested the ia64 cases.
Everything else here felt pretty straightforward, but the ia64 rules for
stack expansion are really quite odd and very different from everything
else. Also thanks to Vegard Nossum who caught me getting one of those
odd conditions entirely the wrong way around.
Anyway, I think I want to actually move all the stack expansion code to
a whole new file of its own, rather than have it split up between
mm/mmap.c and mm/memory.c, but since this will have to be backported to
the initial maple tree vma introduction anyway, I tried to keep the
patches _fairly_ minimal.
Also, while I don't think it's valid to expand the stack from GUP, the
final patch in here is a "warn if some crazy GUP user wants to try to
expand the stack" patch. That one will be reverted before the final
release, but it's left to catch any odd cases during the merge window
and release candidates.

Pull SMP updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"A large update for SMP management:
- Parallel CPU bringup
The reason why people are interested in parallel bringup is to
shorten the (kexec) reboot time of cloud servers to reduce the
downtime of the VM tenants.
The current fully serialized bringup does the following per AP:
1) Prepare callbacks (allocate, intialize, create threads)
2) Kick the AP alive (e.g. INIT/SIPI on x86)
3) Wait for the AP to report alive state
4) Let the AP continue through the atomic bringup
5) Let the AP run the threaded bringup to full online state
There are two significant delays:
#3 The time for an AP to report alive state in start_secondary()
on x86 has been measured in the range between 350us and 3.5ms
depending on vendor and CPU type, BIOS microcode size etc.
#4 The atomic bringup does the microcode update. This has been
measured to take up to ~8ms on the primary threads depending
on the microcode patch size to apply.
On a two socket SKL server with 56 cores (112 threads) the boot CPU
spends on current mainline about 800ms busy waiting for the APs to
come up and apply microcode. That's more than 80% of the actual
onlining procedure.
This can be reduced significantly by splitting the bringup
mechanism into two parts:
1) Run the prepare callbacks and kick the AP alive for each AP
which needs to be brought up.
The APs wake up, do their firmware initialization and run the
low level kernel startup code including microcode loading in
parallel up to the first synchronization point. (#1 and #2
above)
2) Run the rest of the bringup code strictly serialized per CPU
(#3 - #5 above) as it's done today.
Parallelizing that stage of the CPU bringup might be possible
in theory, but it's questionable whether required surgery
would be justified for a pretty small gain.
If the system is large enough the first AP is already waiting at
the first synchronization point when the boot CPU finished the
wake-up of the last AP. That reduces the AP bringup time on that
SKL from ~800ms to ~80ms, i.e. by a factor ~10x.
The actual gain varies wildly depending on the system, CPU,
microcode patch size and other factors. There are some
opportunities to reduce the overhead further, but that needs some
deep surgery in the x86 CPU bringup code.
For now this is only enabled on x86, but the core functionality
obviously works for all SMP capable architectures.
- Enhancements for SMP function call tracing so it is possible to
locate the scheduling and the actual execution points. That allows
to measure IPI delivery time precisely"

.. and make x86 use it.
This basically extracts the existing x86 "find and expand faulting vma"
code, but extends it to also take the mmap lock for writing in case we
actually do need to expand the vma.
We've historically short-circuited that case, and have some rather ugly
special logic to serialize the stack segment expansion (since we only
hold the mmap lock for reading) that doesn't match the normal VM
locking.
That slight violation of locking worked well, right up until it didn't:
the maple tree code really does want proper locking even for simple
extension of an existing vma.
So extract the code for "look up the vma of the fault" from x86, fix it
up to do the necessary write locking, and make it available as a helper
function for other architectures that can use the common helper.
Note: I say "common helper", but it really only handles the normal
stack-grows-down case. Which is all architectures except for PA-RISC
and IA64. So some rare architectures can't use the helper, but if they
care they'll just need to open-code this logic.
It's also worth pointing out that this code really would like to have an
optimistic "mmap_upgrade_trylock()" to make it quicker to go from a
read-lock (for the common case) to taking the write lock (for having to
extend the vma) in the normal single-threaded situation where there is
no other locking activity.
But that _is_ all the very uncommon special case, so while it would be
nice to have such an operation, it probably doesn't matter in reality.
I did put in the skeleton code for such a possible future expansion,
even if it only acts as pseudo-documentation for what we're doing.

The previous patch ("function_graph: Support recording and printing
the return value of function") has laid the groundwork for the for
the funcgraph-retval, and this modification makes it available on
the x86 platform.
We introduce a new structure called fgraph_ret_regs for the x86
platform to hold return registers and the frame pointer. We then
fill its content in the return_to_handler and pass its address
to the function ftrace_return_to_handler to record the return
value.

Add SNP-specific hooks to the unaccepted memory support in the boot
path (__accept_memory()) and the core kernel (accept_memory()) in order
to support booting SNP guests when unaccepted memory is present. Without
this support, SNP guests will fail to boot and/or panic() when unaccepted
memory is present in the EFI memory map.
The process of accepting memory under SNP involves invoking the hypervisor
to perform a page state change for the page to private memory and then
issuing a PVALIDATE instruction to accept the page.
Since the boot path and the core kernel paths perform similar operations,
move the pvalidate_pages() and vmgexit_psc() functions into sev-shared.c
to avoid code duplication.
Create the new header file arch/x86/boot/compressed/sev.h because adding
the function declaration to any of the existing SEV related header files
pulls in too many other header files, causing the build to fail.

Implement the validation function which tells the core code whether
parallel bringup is possible.
The only condition for now is that the kernel does not run in an encrypted
guest as these will trap the RDMSR via #VC, which cannot be handled at that
point in early startup.
There was an earlier variant for AMD-SEV which used the GHBC protocol for
retrieving the APIC ID via CPUID, but there is no guarantee that the
initial APIC ID in CPUID is the same as the real APIC ID. There is no
enforcement from the secure firmware and the hypervisor can assign APIC IDs
as it sees fit as long as the ACPI/MADT table is consistent with that
assignment.
Unfortunately there is no RDMSR GHCB protocol at the moment, so enabling
AMD-SEV guests for parallel startup needs some more thought.
Intel-TDX provides a secure RDMSR hypercall, but supporting that is outside
the scope of this change.
Fixup announce_cpu() as e.g. on Hyper-V CPU1 is the secondary sibling of

The x86 CPU bringup state currently does AP wake-up, wait for AP to
respond and then release it for full bringup.
It is safe to be split into a wake-up and and a separate wait+release
state.
Provide the required functions and enable the split CPU bringup, which
prepares for parallel bringup, where the bringup of the non-boot CPUs takes
two iterations: One to prepare and wake all APs and the second to wait and
release them. Depending on timing this can eliminate the wait time
completely.

Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
"Commit volume in documentation is relatively low this time, but there
is still a fair amount going on, including:
- Reorganize the architecture-specific documentation under
Documentation/arch
This makes the structure match the source directory and helps to
clean up the mess that is the top-level Documentation directory a
bit. This work creates the new directory and moves x86 and most of
the less-active architectures there.
The current plan is to move the rest of the architectures in 6.5,
with the patches going through the appropriate subsystem trees.
- Some more Spanish translations and maintenance of the Italian
translation
- A new "Kernel contribution maturity model" document from Ted
- A new tutorial on quickly building a trimmed kernel from Thorsten

We introduce a new HAS_IOPORT Kconfig option to indicate support for I/O
Port access. In a future patch HAS_IOPORT=n will disable compilation of
the I/O accessor functions inb()/outb() and friends on architectures
which can not meaningfully support legacy I/O spaces such as s390.
The following architectures do not select HAS_IOPORT:
* ARC
* C-SKY
* Hexagon
* Nios II
* OpenRISC
* s390
* User-Mode Linux
* Xtensa
All other architectures select HAS_IOPORT at least conditionally.
The "depends on" relations on HAS_IOPORT in drivers as well as ifdefs
for HAS_IOPORT specific sections will be added in subsequent patches on
a per subsystem basis.

Pull x86 core updates from Borislav Petkov:
- Add the call depth tracking mitigation for Retbleed which has been
long in the making. It is a lighterweight software-only fix for
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.
This software-only solution brings a lot of the lost performance
back, as benchmarks suggest:

whole mechanism

Pull EFI updates from Ard Biesheuvel:
"Another fairly sizable pull request, by EFI subsystem standards.
Most of the work was done by me, some of it in collaboration with the
distro and bootloader folks (GRUB, systemd-boot), where the main focus
has been on removing pointless per-arch differences in the way EFI
boots a Linux kernel.
- Refactor the zboot code so that it incorporates all the EFI stub
logic, rather than calling the decompressed kernel as a EFI app.
- Add support for initrd= command line option to x86 mixed mode.
- Allow initrd= to be used with arbitrary EFI accessible file systems
instead of just the one the kernel itself was loaded from.
- Move some x86-only handling and manipulation of the EFI memory map
into arch/x86, as it is not used anywhere else.
- More flexible handling of any random seeds provided by the boot
environment (i.e., systemd-boot) so that it becomes available much
earlier during the boot.
- Allow improved arch-agnostic EFI support in loaders, by setting a
uniform baseline of supported features, and adding a generic magic
number to the DOS/PE header. This should allow loaders such as GRUB
or systemd-boot to reduce the amount of arch-specific handling
substantially.
- (arm64) Run EFI runtime services from a dedicated stack, and use it
to recover from synchronous exceptions that might occur in the
firmware code.
- (arm64) Ensure that we don't allocate memory outside of the 48-bit
addressable physical range.
- Make EFI pstore record size configurable
- Add support for decoding CXL specific CPER records"

Pull cxl updates from Dan Williams:
"Compute Express Link (CXL) updates for 6.2.
While it may seem backwards, the CXL update this time around includes
some focus on CXL 1.x enabling where the work to date had been with
CXL 2.0 (VH topologies) in mind.
First generation CXL can mostly be supported via BIOS, similar to DDR,
however it became clear there are use cases for OS native CXL error
handling and some CXL 3.0 endpoint features can be deployed on CXL 1.x
hosts (Restricted CXL Host (RCH) topologies). So, this update brings
RCH topologies into the Linux CXL device model.
In support of the ongoing CXL 2.0+ enabling two new core kernel
facilities are added.
One is the ability for the kernel to flag collisions between userspace
access to PCI configuration registers and kernel accesses. This is
brought on by the PCIe Data-Object-Exchange (DOE) facility, a hardware
mailbox over config-cycles.
The other is a cpu_cache_invalidate_memregion() API that maps to
wbinvd_on_all_cpus() on x86. To prevent abuse it is disabled in guest
VMs and architectures that do not support it yet. The CXL paths that
need it, dynamic memory region creation and security commands (erase /
unlock), are disabled when it is not present.
As for the CXL 2.0+ this cycle the subsystem gains support Persistent
Memory Security commands, error handling in response to PCIe AER
notifications, and support for the "XOR" host bridge interleave
algorithm.
Summary:
- Add the cpu_cache_invalidate_memregion() API for cache flushing in
response to physical memory reconfiguration, or memory-side data
invalidation from operations like secure erase or memory-device
unlock.
- Add a facility for the kernel to warn about collisions between
kernel and userspace access to PCI configuration registers
- Add support for Restricted CXL Host (RCH) topologies (formerly CXL
1.1)
- Add handling and reporting of CXL errors reported via the PCIe AER
mechanism
- Add support for CXL Persistent Memory Security commands
- Add support for the "XOR" algorithm for CXL host bridge interleave
- Rework / simplify CXL to NVDIMM interactions
