Implement the uABI of UFFDIO_MOVE ioctl.
UFFDIO_COPY performs ~20% better than UFFDIO_MOVE when the application
needs pages to be allocated [1]. However, with UFFDIO_MOVE, if pages are
available (in userspace) for recycling, as is usually the case in heap
compaction algorithms, then we can avoid the page allocation and memcpy
(done by UFFDIO_COPY). Also, since the pages are recycled in the
userspace, we avoid the need to release (via madvise) the pages back to
the kernel [2].
We see over 40% reduction (on a Google pixel 6 device) in the compacting
thread's completion time by using UFFDIO_MOVE vs. UFFDIO_COPY. This was
measured using a benchmark that emulates a heap compaction implementation
using userfaultfd (to allow concurrent accesses by application threads).
More details of the usecase are explained in [2]. Furthermore,
UFFDIO_MOVE enables moving swapped-out pages without touching them within
the same vma. Today, it can only be done by mremap, however it forces
splitting the vma.

Update for the ioctl_userfaultfd(2) manpage:
UFFDIO_MOVE
(Since Linux xxx) Move a continuous memory chunk into the
userfault registered range and optionally wake up the blocked
thread. The source and destination addresses and the number of
bytes to move are specified by the src, dst, and len fields of
the uffdio_move structure pointed to by argp:
struct uffdio_move {
__u64 dst; /* Destination of move */
__u64 src; /* Source of move */
__u64 len; /* Number of bytes to move */
__u64 mode; /* Flags controlling behavior of move */
__s64 move; /* Number of bytes moved, or negated error */
};
The following value may be bitwise ORed in mode to change the
behavior of the UFFDIO_MOVE operation:
UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_DONTWAKE
Do not wake up the thread that waits for page-fault
resolution
UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_ALLOW_SRC_HOLES
Allow holes in the source virtual range that is being moved.
When not specified, the holes will result in ENOENT error.
When specified, the holes will be accounted as successfully
moved memory. This is mostly useful to move hugepage aligned
virtual regions without knowing if there are transparent
hugepages in the regions or not, but preventing the risk of
having to split the hugepage during the operation.
The move field is used by the kernel to return the number of
bytes that was actually moved, or an error (a negated errno-
style value). If the value returned in move doesn't match the
value that was specified in len, the operation fails with the
error EAGAIN. The move field is output-only; it is not read by
the UFFDIO_MOVE operation.
The operation may fail for various reasons. Usually, remapping of
pages that are not exclusive to the given process fail; once KSM
might deduplicate pages or fork() COW-shares pages during fork()
with child processes, they are no longer exclusive. Further, the
kernel might only perform lightweight checks for detecting whether
the pages are exclusive, and return -EBUSY in case that check fails.
To make the operation more likely to succeed, KSM should be
disabled, fork() should be avoided or MADV_DONTFORK should be
configured for the source VMA before fork().
This ioctl(2) operation returns 0 on success. In this case, the
entire area was moved. On error, -1 is returned and errno is
set to indicate the error. Possible errors include:
EAGAIN The number of bytes moved (i.e., the value returned in
the move field) does not equal the value that was
specified in the len field.
EINVAL Either dst or len was not a multiple of the system page
size, or the range specified by src and len or dst and len
was invalid.
EINVAL An invalid bit was specified in the mode field.
ENOENT
The source virtual memory range has unmapped holes and
UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_ALLOW_SRC_HOLES is not set.
EEXIST
The destination virtual memory range is fully or partially
mapped.
EBUSY
The pages in the source virtual memory range are either
pinned or not exclusive to the process. The kernel might
only perform lightweight checks for detecting whether the
pages are exclusive. To make the operation more likely to
succeed, KSM should be disabled, fork() should be avoided
or MADV_DONTFORK should be configured for the source virtual
memory area before fork().
ENOMEM Allocating memory needed for the operation failed.
ESRCH
The target process has exited at the time of a UFFDIO_MOVE
operation.

So far the mirred action has dealt with syntax that handles
mirror/redirection for netdev. A matching packet is redirected or mirrored
to a target netdev.
In this patch we enable mirred to mirror to a tc block as well.
IOW, the new syntax looks as follows:
... mirred <ingress | egress> <mirror | redirect> [index INDEX] < <blockid BLOCKID> | <dev <devname>> >
Examples of mirroring or redirecting to a tc block:
$ tc filter add block 22 protocol ip pref 25 \
flower dst_ip 192.168.0.0/16 action mirred egress mirror blockid 22
$ tc filter add block 22 protocol ip pref 25 \
flower dst_ip 10.10.10.10/32 action mirred egress redirect blockid 22

FCC-594280 D01 Section B.3 allows peer-to-peer and ad hoc devices to
operate on DFS channels while they operate under the control of a
concurrent DFS master. For example, it is possible to have a P2P GO on a
DFS channel as long as BSS connection is active on the same channel.
Allow such operation by adding additional regulatory flags to indicate
DFS concurrent channels and capable devices. Add the required
relaxations in DFS regulatory checks.

The tail of the provided ring buffer is shared between the kernel and
the application, but the head is private to the kernel as the
application doesn't need to see it. However, this also prevents the
application from knowing how many buffers the kernel has consumed.
Usually this is fine, as the information is inherently racy in that
the kernel could be consuming buffers continually, but for cleanup
purposes it may be relevant to know how many buffers are still left
in the ring.
Add IORING_REGISTER_PBUF_STATUS which will return status for a given
provided buffer ring. Right now it just returns the head, but space
is reserved for more information later in, if needed.

Patch series "kexec_file: print out debugging message if required", v4.
Currently, specifying '-d' on kexec command will print a lot of debugging
informationabout kexec/kdump loading with kexec_load interface.
However, kexec_file_load prints nothing even though '-d' is specified.
It's very inconvenient to debug or analyze the kexec/kdump loading when
something wrong happened with kexec/kdump itself or develper want to check
the kexec/kdump loading.
In this patchset, a kexec_file flag is KEXEC_FILE_DEBUG added and checked
in code. If it's passed in, debugging message of kexec_file code will be
printed out and can be seen from console and dmesg. Otherwise, the
debugging message is printed like beofre when pr_debug() is taken.
Note:
****
=====
1) The code in kexec-tools utility also need be changed to support
passing KEXEC_FILE_DEBUG to kernel when 'kexec -s -d' is specified.
The patch link is here:
=========
[PATCH] kexec_file: add kexec_file flag to support debug printing
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/kexec/2023-November/028505.html
2) s390 also has kexec_file code, while I am not sure what debugging
information is necessary. So leave it to s390 developer.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
This patch (of 7):
When specifying 'kexec -c -d', kexec_load interface will print loading
information, e.g the regions where kernel/initrd/purgatory/cmdline are
put, the memmap passed to 2nd kernel taken as system RAM ranges, and
printing all contents of struct kexec_segment, etc. These are very
helpful for analyzing or positioning what's happening when kexec/kdump
itself failed. The debugging printing for kexec_load interface is made in
user space utility kexec-tools.
Whereas, with kexec_file_load interface, 'kexec -s -d' print nothing.
Because kexec_file code is mostly implemented in kernel space, and the
debugging printing functionality is missed. It's not convenient when
debugging kexec/kdump loading and jumping with kexec_file_load interface.
Now add KEXEC_FILE_DEBUG to kexec_file flag to control the debugging
message printing. And add global variable kexec_file_dbg_print and macro
kexec_dprintk() to facilitate the printing.
This is a preparation, later kexec_dprintk() will be used to replace the
existing pr_debug(). Once 'kexec -s -d' is specified, it will print out
kexec/kdump loading information. If '-d' is not specified, it regresses
to pr_debug().

* New driver for this volatile organic compounds sensor.
bosch,bmp280
* Add BMP390 (small amount of refactoring + ID)
bosch,bmi323
* New driver to support the BMI323 6-axis IMU.
honeywell,hsc030pa
* New driver supporting a huge number of SSC and HSC series pressure and
temperature sensors.
isil,isl76682
* New driver for this simple Ambient Light sensor.

* New driver for this thermocouple EMF convertor.
ti,hdc3020
* New driver for this integrated relative humidity and temperature
sensor.
vishay,veml6075
* New driver for this UVA and UVB light sensor.
General features
----------------
Device properties
* Add fwnode_property_match_property_string() helper to allow matching
single value property against an array of predefined strings.
* Use fwnode_property_string_array_count() inside
fwnode_property_match_string() instead of open coding the same.
checkpatch.pl
* Add exclusion of __aligned() from a warning reducing false positives
on IIO drivers (and hopefully beyond)
IIO Features
------------
core
* New light channel modifiers for UVA and UVB.
* Add IIO_CHAN_INFO_TROUGH as counterpart to IIO_CHAN_INFO_PEAK so that
we can support device that keep running track of the lowest value they
have seen in similar fashion to the existing peak tracking.
adi,adis library
* Use spi cs inactive delay even when a burst reading is performed.
As it's now used every time, can centralize the handling in the SPI
setup code in the driver.
adi,ad2s1210
* Support for fixed-mode to this resolver driver where the A0 and A1
pins are hard wired to config mode in which case position and config
must be read from appropriate config registers.
* Support reset GPIO if present.
adi,ad5791
* Allow configuration of presence of external amplifier in DT binding.
adi,adis16400
* Add spi-cs-inactive-delay-ns to bindings to allow it to be tweaked
if default delays are not quite enough for a specific board.
adi,adis16475
* Add spi-cs-inactive-delay-ns to bindings to allow it to be tweaked
if default delays are not quite enough for a specific board.
bosch,bmp280
* Enable multiple chip IDs per family of devices.
rohm,bu27008
* Add an illuminance channel calculated from RGB and IR data.
Cleanup
-------
Minor white space, typos and tidy up not explicitly called out.
Core
* Check that the available_scan_masks array passed to the IIO core
by a driver is sensible by ensuring the entries are ordered so the
minimum number of channels is enabled in the earlier entries (as they
will be selected if sufficient for the requested channels).
* Document that the available_scan_masks infrastructure doesn't currently
handle masks that don't fit in a long int.
* Improve intensity documentation to reflect that there is no expectation
of sensible units (it's dependent on a frequency sensitivity curve)
Various
* Use new device_property_match_property_string() to replace open coded
versions of the same thing.
* Fix a few MAINTAINERS filenames.
* i2c_get_match_data() and spi_get_device_match_data() pushed into
more drivers reducing boilerplate handling.
* Some unnecessary headers removed.
* ACPI_PTR() removals. It's rarely worth using this.
adi,ad7091r (early part of a series adding device support - useful in
their own right)
* Pass iio_dev directly an event handler rather than relying
on broken use of dev_get_drvdata() as drvdata is never set in this driver.
* Make sure alert is turned on.
adi,ad9467 (general driver fixing up as precursor to iio-backend proposal
which is under review for 6.9)
* Fix reset gpio handling to match expected polarity.
* Always handle error codes from spi_writes.
* Add a driver instance local mutex to avoid some races.
* Fix scale setting to align with available scale values.
* Split array of chip_info structures up into named individual elements.
* Convert to regmap.
honeywell,mprls0025pa
* Drop now unnecessary type references in DT binding for properties in
pascals.
invensense,mpu6050
* Don't eat a potentially useful return value from regmap_bulk_write()
invensense,icm42600
* Use max macro to improve code readability and save a few lines.
liteon,ltrf216a
* Improve prevision of light intensity.
microchip,mcp3911
* Use cleanup.h magic.
qcom,spmi*
* Fix wrong descriptions of SPMI reg fields in bindings.

Currently, the 'state' field in 'struct br_port_msg' can be set to 1 if
the MDB entry is permanent or 0 if it is temporary. Additional states
might be added in the future.
In a similar fashion to 'NDA_NDM_STATE_MASK', add an MDB state mask uAPI
attribute that will allow the upcoming bulk deletion API to bulk delete
MDB entries with a certain state or any state.

Currently the user listening on a socket for devlink notifications
gets always all messages for all existing instances, even if he is
interested only in one of those. That may cause unnecessary overhead
on setups with thousands of instances present.
User is currently able to narrow down the devlink objects replies
to dump commands by specifying select attributes.
Allow similar approach for notifications. Introduce a new devlink
NOTIFY_FILTER_SET which the user passes the select attributes. Store
these per-socket and use them for filtering messages
during multicast send.

This PR is larger than usual and contains changes in various parts
of the kernel.
The main changes are:
1) Fix kCFI bugs in BPF, from Peter Zijlstra.
End result: all forms of indirect calls from BPF into kernel
and from kernel into BPF work with CFI enabled. This allows BPF
to work with CONFIG_FINEIBT=y.
2) Introduce BPF token object, from Andrii Nakryiko.
It adds an ability to delegate a subset of BPF features from privileged
daemon (e.g., systemd) through special mount options for userns-bound
BPF FS to a trusted unprivileged application. The design accommodates
suggestions from Christian Brauner and Paul Moore.
Example:
$ sudo mkdir -p /sys/fs/bpf/token
$ sudo mount -t bpf bpffs /sys/fs/bpf/token \
-o delegate_cmds=prog_load:MAP_CREATE \
-o delegate_progs=kprobe \
-o delegate_attachs=xdp
3) Various verifier improvements and fixes, from Andrii Nakryiko, Andrei Matei.
- Complete precision tracking support for register spills
- Fix verification of possibly-zero-sized stack accesses
- Fix access to uninit stack slots
- Track aligned STACK_ZERO cases as imprecise spilled registers.
It improves the verifier "instructions processed" metric from single
digit to 50-60% for some programs.
- Fix verifier retval logic
4) Support for VLAN tag in XDP hints, from Larysa Zaremba.
5) Allocate BPF trampoline via bpf_prog_pack mechanism, from Song Liu.
End result: better memory utilization and lower I$ miss for calls to BPF
via BPF trampoline.
6) Fix race between BPF prog accessing inner map and parallel delete,
from Hou Tao.
7) Add bpf_xdp_get_xfrm_state() kfunc, from Daniel Xu.
It allows BPF interact with IPSEC infra. The intent is to support
software RSS (via XDP) for the upcoming ipsec pcpu work.
Experiments on AWS demonstrate single tunnel pcpu ipsec reaching
line rate on 100G ENA nics.
8) Expand bpf_cgrp_storage to support cgroup1 non-attach, from Yafang Shao.
9) BPF file verification via fsverity, from Song Liu.
It allows BPF progs get fsverity digest.

All of the other constants in this file are defined using enums, so make
the constants more consistent by defining the ioctls in an enum as well.
This is necessary for Rust Binder since the _IO macros are too
complicated for bindgen to see that they expand to integer constants.
Replacing the #defines with an enum forces bindgen to evaluate them
properly, which allows us to access them from Rust.
I originally intended to include this change in the first patch of the
Rust Binder patchset [1], but at plumbers Carlos Llamas told me that
this change has been discussed previously [2] and suggested that I send
it upstream separately.

When compiling with gcc version 14.0.0 20231206 (experimental)
and CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE=y, I've noticed the following warning:
...
In function 'fortify_memcpy_chk',
inlined from '__ffs_func_bind_do_os_desc' at drivers/usb/gadget/function/f_fs.c:2934:3:
./include/linux/fortify-string.h:588:25: warning: call to '__read_overflow2_field'
declared with attribute warning: detected read beyond size of field (2nd parameter);
maybe use struct_group()? [-Wattribute-warning]
588 | __read_overflow2_field(q_size_field, size);
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This call to 'memcpy()' is interpreted as an attempt to copy both
'CompatibleID' and 'SubCompatibleID' of 'struct usb_ext_compat_desc'
from an address of the first one, which causes an overread warning.
Since we actually want to copy both of them at once, use the
convenient 'struct_group()' and 'sizeof_field()' here.

Add way to query the children of a particular mount. This is a more
flexible way to iterate the mount tree than having to parse
/proc/self/mountinfo.
Lookup the mount by the new 64bit mount ID. If a mount needs to be
queried based on path, then statx(2) can be used to first query the
mount ID belonging to the path.
Return an array of new (64bit) mount ID's. Without privileges only
mounts are listed which are reachable from the task's root.
Folded into this patch are several later improvements. Keeping them
separate would make the history pointlessly confusing:
* Recursive listing of mounts is the default now (cf. [1]).
* Remove explicit LISTMOUNT_UNREACHABLE flag (cf. [1]) and fail if mount
is unreachable from current root. This also makes permission checking
consistent with statmount() (cf. [3]).
* Start listing mounts in unique mount ID order (cf. [2]) to allow
continuing listmount() from a midpoint.
* Allow to continue listmount(). The @request_mask parameter is renamed
and to @param to be usable by both statmount() and listmount().
If @param is set to a mount id then listmount() will continue listing
mounts from that id on. This allows listing mounts in multiple
listmount invocations without having to resize the buffer. If @param
is zero then the listing starts from the beginning (cf. [4]).
* Don't return EOVERFLOW, instead return the buffer size which allows to
detect a full buffer as well (cf. [4]).

Symmetric RSS hash functions are beneficial in applications that monitor
both Tx and Rx packets of the same flow (IDS, software firewalls, ..etc).
Getting all traffic of the same flow on the same RX queue results in
higher CPU cache efficiency.
A NIC that supports "symmetric-xor" can achieve this RSS hash symmetry
by XORing the source and destination fields and pass the values to the
RSS hash algorithm.
The user may request RSS hash symmetry for a specific algorithm, via:
# ethtool -X eth0 hfunc <hash_alg> symmetric-xor
or turn symmetry off (asymmetric) by:
# ethtool -X eth0 hfunc <hash_alg>
The specific fields for each flow type should then be specified as usual
via:
# ethtool -N|-U eth0 rx-flow-hash <flow_type> s|d|f|n

Due to a historical mishap, the v4l2_subdev_frame_interval structure
is the only part of the V4L2 subdev userspace API that doesn't contain a
'which' field. This prevents trying frame intervals using the subdev
'TRY' state mechanism.
Adding a 'which' field is simple as the structure has 8 reserved fields.
This would however break userspace as the field is currently set to 0,
corresponding to V4L2_SUBDEV_FORMAT_TRY, while the corresponding ioctls
currently operate on the 'ACTIVE' state. We thus need to add a new
subdev client cap, V4L2_SUBDEV_CLIENT_CAP_INTERVAL_USES_WHICH, to
indicate that userspace is aware of this new field.
All drivers that implement the subdev .get_frame_interval() and
.set_frame_interval() operations are updated to return -EINVAL when
operating on the TRY state, preserving the current behaviour.
While at it, fix a bad copy&paste in the documentation of the struct
v4l2_subdev_frame_interval_enum 'which' field.

io_uring can currently open/close regular files or fixed/direct
descriptors. Or you can instantiate a fixed descriptor from a regular
one, and then close the regular descriptor. But you currently can't turn
a purely fixed/direct descriptor into a regular file descriptor.
IORING_OP_FIXED_FD_INSTALL adds support for installing a direct
descriptor into the normal file table, just like receiving a file
descriptor or opening a new file would do. This is all nicely abstracted
into receive_fd(), and hence adding support for this is truly trivial.
Since direct descriptors are only usable within io_uring itself, it can
be useful to turn them into real file descriptors if they ever need to
be accessed via normal syscalls. This can either be a transitory thing,
or just a permanent transition for a given direct descriptor.
By default, new fds are installed with O_CLOEXEC set. The application
can disable O_CLOEXEC by setting IORING_FIXED_FD_NO_CLOEXEC in the
sqe->install_fd_flags member.

Sometimes there may be reasons for which a BSS that's
actually found in scan cannot be used to connect to,
for example a nonprimary link of an NSTR mobile AP MLD
cannot be used for normal direct connections to it.
Not indicating these to userspace as we do now of course
avoids being able to connect to them, but it's better if
they're shown to userspace and it can make an appropriate
decision, without e.g. doing an additional ML probe.
Thus add an indication of what a BSS can be used for,
currently "normal" and "MLD link", including a reason
bitmap for it being not usable.
The latter can be extended later for certain BSSes if there
are other reasons they cannot be used.

Add a way to query attributes of a single mount instead of having to parse
the complete /proc/$PID/mountinfo, which might be huge.
Lookup the mount the new 64bit mount ID. If a mount needs to be queried
based on path, then statx(2) can be used to first query the mount ID
belonging to the path.
Design is based on a suggestion by Linus:
"So I'd suggest something that is very much like "statfsat()", which gets
a buffer and a length, and returns an extended "struct statfs" *AND*
just a string description at the end."
The interface closely mimics that of statx.
Handle ASCII attributes by appending after the end of the structure (as per
above suggestion). Pointers to strings are stored in u64 members to make
the structure the same regardless of pointer size. Strings are nul
terminated.

The PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl returns information regarding page table entries.
It is more efficient compared to reading pagemap files. CRIU can start to
utilize this ioctl, but it needs info about soft-dirty bits to track
memory changes.
We are aware of a new method for tracking memory changes implemented in
the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl. For CRIU, the primary advantage of this method is
its usability by unprivileged users. However, it is not feasible to
transparently replace the soft-dirty tracker with the new one. The main
problem here is userfault descriptors that have to be preserved between
pre-dump iterations. It means criu continues supporting the soft-dirty
method to avoid breakage for current users. The new method will be
implemented as a separate feature.

Hence, by default, a Xen guest will not see PVCLOCK_TSC_STABLE_BIT set
in either the primary or secondary pvclock memory areas. This has
led to bugs in some guest kernels which only become evident if
PVCLOCK_TSC_STABLE_BIT *is* set in the pvclocks. Hence, to support
such guests, give the VMM a new Xen HVM config flag to tell KVM to
forcibly clear the bit in the Xen pvclocks.

Add the call to the UAPI such that userspace may corelate the
timestamps from the device log with system wall time, if, for
example there's any sort of inaccuracy or skew in the device.
