- Make sure a default cache name is set on a cache if the user hasn't
set one by the time they bind the cache.

Patch series "remove Xen tmem leftovers".
Since the removal of the Xen tmem driver in 2019, the cleancache hooks
are entirely unused, as are large parts of frontswap. This series
against linux-next (with the folio changes included) removes
cleancaches, and cuts down frontswap to the bits actually used by zswap.
This patch (of 13):
The cleancache subsystem is unused since the removal of Xen tmem driver
in commit 814bbf49dcd0 ("xen: remove tmem driver").

Currently, enabling CONFIG_STACKDEPOT means its stack_table will be
allocated from memblock, even if stack depot ends up not actually used.
The default size of stack_table is 4MB on 32-bit, 8MB on 64-bit.
This is fine for use-cases such as KASAN which is also a config option
and has overhead on its own. But it's an issue for functionality that
has to be actually enabled on boot (page_owner) or depends on hardware
(GPU drivers) and thus the memory might be wasted. This was raised as
an issue [1] when attempting to add stackdepot support for SLUB's debug
object tracking functionality. It's common to build kernels with
CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG and enable slub_debug on boot only when needed, or
create only specific kmem caches with debugging for testing purposes.
It would thus be more efficient if stackdepot's table was allocated only
when actually going to be used. This patch thus makes the allocation
(and whole stack_depot_init() call) optional:
- Add a CONFIG_STACKDEPOT_ALWAYS_INIT flag to keep using the current
well-defined point of allocation as part of mem_init(). Make
CONFIG_KASAN select this flag.
- Other users have to call stack_depot_init() as part of their own init
when it's determined that stack depot will actually be used. This may
depend on both config and runtime conditions. Convert current users
which are page_owner and several in the DRM subsystem. Same will be
done for SLUB later.
- Because the init might now be called after the boot-time memblock
allocation has given all memory to the buddy allocator, change
stack_depot_init() to allocate stack_table with kvmalloc() when
memblock is no longer available. Also handle allocation failure by
disabling stackdepot (could have theoretically happened even with
memblock allocation previously), and don't unnecessarily align the
memblock allocation to its own size anymore.

Subject: lib/stackdepot: allow optional init and stack_table allocation by kvmalloc() - fixup
On FLATMEM, we call page_ext_init_flatmem_late() just before
kmem_cache_init() which means stack_depot_init() (called by page owner
init) will not recognize properly it should use kvmalloc() and not
memblock_alloc(). memblock_alloc() will also not issue a warning and
return a block memory that can be invalid and cause kernel page fault when
saving stacks, as reported by the kernel test robot [1].
Fix this by moving page_ext_init_flatmem_late() below kmem_cache_init() so
that slab_is_available() is true during stack_depot_init(). SPARSEMEM
doesn't have this issue, as it doesn't do page_ext_init_flatmem_late(),
but a different page_ext_init() even later in the boot process.
Thanks to Mike Rapoport for pointing out the FLATMEM init ordering issue.
While at it, also actually resolve a checkpatch warning in stack_depot_init()
from DRM CI, which was supposed to be in the original patch already.

PDE_DATA(inode) is introduced to get user private data and hide the
layout of struct proc_dir_entry. The inode->i_private is used to do the
same thing as well. Save a copy of user private data to inode->
i_private when proc inode is allocated. This means the user also can
get their private data by inode->i_private.
Introduce pde_data() to wrap inode->i_private so that we can remove
PDE_DATA() from fs/proc/generic.c and make PTE_DATE() as a wrapper of
pde_data(). It will be easier if we decide to remove PDE_DATE() in the
future.

kernel/sysctl.c is a kitchen sink where everyone leaves their dirty
dishes, this makes it very difficult to maintain.
To help with this maintenance let's start by moving sysctls to places
where they actually belong. The proc sysctl maintainers do not want to
know what sysctl knobs you wish to add for your own piece of code, we
just care about the core logic.
Move sysctl_kprobes_optimization from kernel/sysctl.c to
kernel/kprobes.c. Use register_sysctl() to register the sysctl
interface.

This moves the namespace sysctls to its own file as part of the
kernel/sysctl.c spring cleaning
Since we have now removed all sysctls for "fs", we now have to declare
it on the filesystem code, we do that using the new helper, which
reduces boiler plate code.
We rename init_fs_shared_sysctls() to init_fs_sysctls() to reflect that
now fs/sysctls.c is taking on the burden of being the first to register
the base directory as well.
Lastly, since init code will load in the order in which we link it we
have to move the sysctl code to be linked in early, so that its early
init routine runs prior to other fs code. This way, other filesystem
code can register their own sysctls using the helpers after this:
* register_sysctl_init()
* register_sysctl()

Patch series "sysctl: add and use base directory declarer and
registration helper".
In this patch series we start addressing base directories, and so we
start with the "fs" sysctls. The end goal is we end up completely
moving all "fs" sysctl knobs out from kernel/sysctl.
This patch (of 6):
Add a set of helpers which can be used to declare and register base
directory sysctls on their own. We do this so we can later move each of
the base sysctl directories like "fs", "kernel", etc, to their own
respective files instead of shoving the declarations and registrations
all on kernel/sysctl.c. The lazy approach has caught up and with this,
we just end up extending the list of base directories / sysctls on one
file and this makes maintenance difficult due to merge conflicts from
many developers.
The declarations are used first by kernel/sysctl.c for registration its
own base which over time we'll try to clean up. It will be used in the
next patch to demonstrate how to cleanly deal with base sysctl
directories.

Patch series "sysctl: 4th set of kernel/sysctl cleanups".
This is slimming down the fs uses of kernel/sysctl.c to the point that
the next step is to just get rid of the fs base directory for it and
move that elsehwere, so that next patch series starts dealing with that
to demo how we can end up cleaning up a full base directory from
kernel/sysctl.c, one at a time.
This patch (of 9):

this outside of fs/ remove the extern declaration of its respective proc
helper.
We use early_initcall() as it is the earliest we can use.

There is no need to user boiler plate code to specify a set of base
directories we're going to stuff sysctls under. Simplify this by using
register_sysctl() and specifying the directory path directly.
Move inotify_user sysctl to inotify_user.c while at it to remove clutter
from kernel/sysctl.c.

The kernel/sysctl.c is a kitchen sink where everyone leaves their dirty
dishes, this makes it very difficult to maintain.
To help with this maintenance let's start by moving sysctls to places
where they actually belong. The proc sysctl maintainers do not want to
know what sysctl knobs you wish to add for your own piece of code, we
just care about the core logic.
So move dnotify sysctls to dnotify.c and use the new
register_sysctl_init() to register the sysctl interface.

sysctl has helpers which let us specify boundary values for a min or max
int value. Since these are used for a boundary check only they don't
change, so move these variables to sysctl_vals to avoid adding duplicate
variables. This will help with our cleanup of kernel/sysctl.c.

Patch series "sysctl: first set of kernel/sysctl cleanups", v2.
Finally had time to respin the series of the work we had started last
year on cleaning up the kernel/sysct.c kitchen sink. People keeps
stuffing their sysctls in that file and this creates a maintenance
burden. So this effort is aimed at placing sysctls where they actually
belong.
I'm going to split patches up into series as there is quite a bit of
work.
This first set adds register_sysctl_init() for uses of registerting a
sysctl on the init path, adds const where missing to a few places,
generalizes common values so to be more easy to share, and starts the
move of a few kernel/sysctl.c out where they belong.
The majority of rework on v2 in this first patch set is 0-day fixes.
Eric Biederman's feedback is later addressed in subsequent patch sets.
I'll only post the first two patch sets for now. We can address the
rest once the first two patch sets get completely reviewed / Acked.
This patch (of 9):
The kernel/sysctl.c is a kitchen sink where everyone leaves their dirty
dishes, this makes it very difficult to maintain.
To help with this maintenance let's start by moving sysctls to places
where they actually belong. The proc sysctl maintainers do not want to
know what sysctl knobs you wish to add for your own piece of code, we
just care about the core logic.
Today though folks heavily rely on tables on kernel/sysctl.c so they can
easily just extend this table with their needed sysctls. In order to
help users move their sysctls out we need to provide a helper which can
be used during code initialization.
We special-case the initialization use of register_sysctl() since it
*is* safe to fail, given all that sysctls do is provide a dynamic
interface to query or modify at runtime an existing variable. So the
use case of register_sysctl() on init should *not* stop if the sysctls
don't end up getting registered. It would be counter productive to stop
boot if a simple sysctl registration failed.
Provide a helper for init then, and document the recommended init levels
to use for callers of this routine. We will later use this in
subsequent patches to start slimming down kernel/sysctl.c tables and
moving sysctl registration to the code which actually needs these
sysctls.

This fixes the FIXME in migrate_vma_check_page().
Before migrating a page migration code will take a reference and check
there are no unexpected page references, failing the migration if there
are. When a thread faults on a migration entry it will take a temporary
reference to the page to wait for the page to become unlocked signifying
the migration entry has been removed.
This reference is dropped just prior to waiting on the page lock,
however the extra reference can cause migration failures so it is
desirable to avoid taking it.
As migration code already has a reference to the migrating page an extra
reference to wait on PG_locked is unnecessary so long as the reference
can't be dropped whilst setting up the wait.
When faulting on a migration entry the ptl is taken to check the
migration entry. Removing a migration entry also requires the ptl, and
migration code won't drop its page reference until after the migration
entry has been removed. Therefore retaining the ptl of a migration
entry is sufficient to ensure the page has a reference. Reworking
migration_entry_wait() to hold the ptl until the wait setup is complete
means the extra page reference is no longer needed.

Add a comment into fscache_note_page_release() to explain how the
page-release optimisation logic works[1]. It's not entirely obvious as it
has nothing to do with whether or not the netfs file contains data.
FSCACHE_COOKIE_NO_DATA_TO_READ is set if we have no data in the cache yet
(ie. the backing file lookup was negative, the file is 0 length or the
cookie got invalidated). It means that we have no data in the cache, not
that the file is necessarily empty on the server.
FSCACHE_COOKIE_HAVE_DATA is set once we've stored data in the backing file.
From that point on, we have data we *could* read - however, it's covered by
pages in the netfs pagecache until at such time one of those covering pages
is released.
So if we've written data to the cache (HAVE_DATA) and there wasn't any data
in the cache when we started (NO_DATA_TO_READ), it may no longer be true
that we can skip reading from the cache.
Read skipping is done by cachefiles_prepare_read().
Note that tracking is not done on a per-page basis, but only on a per-file
basis.

Turn the CONFIG_UNICODE symbol into a tristate that generates some always
built in code and remove the confusing CONFIG_UNICODE_UTF8_DATA symbol.
Note that a lot of the IS_ENABLED() checks could be turned from cpp
statements into normal ifs, but this change is intended to be fairly
mechanic, so that should be cleaned up later.
