In case CONFIG_XARRAY_MULTI is not defined, xa_store_order can store a
multi-index entry but xas_for_each can't tell sbiling entry from valid
entry. So the check_pause failed when we store a multi-index entry and
wish xas_for_each can handle it normally. Avoid to store multi-index
entry when CONFIG_XARRAY_MULTI is disabled to fix the failure.

kbuild: Use -fzero-init-padding-bits=all
stackinit: Add union initialization to selftests
stackinit: Add old-style zero-init syntax to struct tests
The stack initialization selftests were checking scalars, strings,
and structs, but not unions. Add union tests (which are mostly identical
setup to structs). This catches the recent union initialization behavioral
changes seen in GCC 15. Before GCC 15, this new test passes:
ok 18 test_small_start_old_zero
With GCC 15, it fails:
not ok 18 test_small_start_old_zero
Specifically, a union with a larger member where a smaller member is
initialized with the older "= { 0 }" syntax:
union test_small_start {
char one:1;
char two;
short three;
unsigned long four;
struct big_struct {
unsigned long array[8];
} big;
};
This is a regression in compiler behavior that Linux has depended on.
GCC does not seem likely to fix it, instead suggesting that affected
projects start using -fzero-init-padding-bits=unions:

Make the following simplifications to the kconfig options for choosing
CRC implementations for CRC32 and CRC_T10DIF:
1. Make the option to disable the arch-optimized code be visible only
when CONFIG_EXPERT=y.
2. Make a single option control the inclusion of the arch-optimized code
for all enabled CRC variants.
3. Make CRC32_SARWATE (a.k.a. slice-by-1 or byte-by-byte) be the only
generic CRC32 implementation.
The result is there is now just one option, CRC_OPTIMIZATIONS, which is
default y and can be disabled only when CONFIG_EXPERT=y.
Rationale:
1. Enabling the arch-optimized code is nearly always the right choice.
However, people trying to build the tiniest kernel possible would
find some use in disabling it. Anything we add to CRC32 is de facto
unconditional, given that CRC32 gets selected by something in nearly
all kernels. And unfortunately enabling the arch CRC code does not
eliminate the need to build the generic CRC code into the kernel too,
due to CPU feature dependencies. The size of the arch CRC code will
also increase slightly over time as more CRC variants get added and
more implementations targeting different instruction set extensions
get added. Thus, it seems worthwhile to still provide an option to
disable it, but it should be considered an expert-level tweak.
2. Considering the use case described in (1), there doesn't seem to be
sufficient value in making the arch-optimized CRC code be
independently configurable for different CRC variants. Note also
that multiple variants were already grouped together, e.g.
CONFIG_CRC32 actually enables three different variants of CRC32.
3. The bit-by-bit implementation is uselessly slow, whereas slice-by-n
for n=4 and n=8 use tables that are inconveniently large: 4096 bytes
and 8192 bytes respectively, compared to 1024 bytes for n=1. Higher
n gives higher instruction-level parallelism, so higher n easily wins
on traditional microbenchmarks on most CPUs. However, the larger
tables, which are accessed randomly, can be harmful in real-world
situations where the dcache may be cold or useful data may need be
evicted from the dcache. Meanwhile, today most architectures have
much faster CRC32 implementations using dedicated CRC32 instructions
or carryless multiplication instructions anyway, which make the
generic code obsolete in most cases especially on long messages.
Another reason for going with n=1 is that this is already what is
used by all the other CRC variants in the kernel. CRC32 was unique
in having support for larger tables. But as per the above this can
be considered an outdated optimization.
The standardization on slice-by-1 a.k.a. CRC32_SARWATE makes much of
the code in lib/crc32.c unused. A later patch will clean that up.

Kernel test robot reported an "imbalanced put" in the rcuref_put() slow
path, which turned out to be a false positive. Consider the following race:
ref = 0 (via rcuref_init(ref, 1))
T1 T2
rcuref_put(ref)
-> atomic_add_negative_release(-1, ref) # ref -> 0xffffffff
-> rcuref_put_slowpath(ref)
rcuref_get(ref)
-> atomic_add_negative_relaxed(1, &ref->refcnt)
-> return true; # ref -> 0
rcuref_put(ref)
-> atomic_add_negative_release(-1, ref) # ref -> 0xffffffff
-> rcuref_put_slowpath()
-> cnt = atomic_read(&ref->refcnt); # cnt -> 0xffffffff / RCUREF_NOREF
-> atomic_try_cmpxchg_release(&ref->refcnt, &cnt, RCUREF_DEAD)) # ref -> 0xe0000000 / RCUREF_DEAD
-> return true
-> cnt = atomic_read(&ref->refcnt); # cnt -> 0xe0000000 / RCUREF_DEAD
-> if (cnt > RCUREF_RELEASED) # 0xe0000000 > 0xc0000000
-> WARN_ONCE(cnt >= RCUREF_RELEASED, "rcuref - imbalanced put()")
The problem is the additional read in the slow path (after it
decremented to RCUREF_NOREF) which can happen after the counter has been
marked RCUREF_DEAD.
Prevent this by reusing the return value of the decrement. Now every "final"
put uses RCUREF_NOREF in the slow path and attempts the final cmpxchg() to
RCUREF_DEAD.

Here is the big set of driver core and debugfs updates for 6.14-rc1.
It's coming late in the merge cycle as there are a number of merge
conflicts with your tree now, and I wanted to make sure they were
working properly. To resolve them, look in linux-next, and I will send
the "fixup" patch as a response to the pull request.
Included in here is a bunch of driver core, PCI, OF, and platform rust
bindings (all acked by the different subsystem maintainers), hence the
merge conflict with the rust tree, and some driver core api updates to
mark things as const, which will also require some fixups due to new
stuff coming in through other trees in this merge window.
There are also a bunch of debugfs updates from Al, and there is at least
one user that does have a regression with these, but Al is working on
tracking down the fix for it. In my use (and everyone else's linux-next
use), it does not seem like a big issue at the moment.
Here's a short list of the things in here:
- driver core bindings for PCI, platform, OF, and some i/o functions.
We are almost at the "write a real driver in rust" stage now,
depending on what you want to do.
- misc device rust bindings and a sample driver to show how to use
them
- debugfs cleanups in the fs as well as the users of the fs api for
places where drivers got it wrong or were unnecessarily doing things
in complex ways.
- driver core const work, making more of the api take const * for
different parameters to make the rust bindings easier overall.
- other small fixes and updates
All of these have been in linux-next with all of the aforementioned
merge conflicts, and the one debugfs issue, which looks to be resolved
"soon".

zero-refcount pages. So that callers (ie, slab) can avoid a refcount
inc & dec.
- "Support large folios for tmpfs" from Baolin Wang teaches tmpfs to use
large folios other than PMD-sized ones.

"introduces a new memory descriptor for zswap.zpool that currently
overlaps with struct page for now. This is part of the effort to reduce
the size of struct page and to enable dynamic allocation of memory
descriptors."
- "mm, swap: rework of swap allocator locks" from Kairui Song redoes and
simplifies the swap allocator locking. A speedup of 400% was
demonstrated for one workload. As was a 35% reduction for kernel build
time with swap-on-zram.
- "mm: update mips to use do_mmap(), make mmap_region() internal" from
Lorenzo Stoakes reworks MIPS's use of mmap_region() so that
mmap_region() can be made MM-internal.

Before SLUB initialization, various subsystems used memblock_alloc to
allocate memory. In most cases, when memory allocation fails, an
immediate panic is required. To simplify this behavior and reduce
repetitive checks, introduce `memblock_alloc_or_panic`. This function
ensures that memory allocation failures result in a panic automatically,
improving code readability and consistency across subsystems that require
this behavior.

When memory allocation profiling is disabled there is no need to update
current->alloc_tag and these manipulations add unnecessary overhead. Fix
the overhead by skipping these extra updates.
I ran comprehensive testing on Pixel 6 on Big, Medium and Little cores:
Overhead before fixes Overhead after fixes
slab alloc page alloc slab alloc page alloc
Big 6.21% 5.32% 3.31% 4.93%
Medium 4.51% 5.05% 3.79% 4.39%
Little 7.62% 1.82% 6.68% 1.02%
This is an allocation microbenchmark doing allocations in a tight loop.
Not a really realistic scenario and useful only to make performance
comparisons.

The previous commit removed the page_list argument from
alloc_pages_bulk_noprof() along with the alloc_pages_bulk_list() function.
Now that only the *_array() flavour of the API remains, we can do the
following renaming (along with the _noprof() ones):
alloc_pages_bulk_array -> alloc_pages_bulk
alloc_pages_bulk_array_mempolicy -> alloc_pages_bulk_mempolicy
alloc_pages_bulk_array_node -> alloc_pages_bulk_node

Besides xas_squash_marks(), all functions use xa_mark_t type to iterate
all possible marks. Use xa_mark_t in xas_squash_marks() to keep code
consistent.

We don't support large entries which expand two more level xa_node in
split. For case "xas->xa_shift + 2 * XA_CHUNK_SHIFT == order", we also
need two level of xa_node to expand. Distinguish entry as large entry in
case "xas->xa_shift + 2 * XA_CHUNK_SHIFT == order".
As max order of folio in pagecache (MAX_PAGECACHE_ORDER) is <=
(XA_CHUNK_SHIFT * 2 - 1), this change is more likely a cleanup...

After xas_load(), xas->index could point to mid of found multi-index entry
and xas->index's bits under node->shift maybe non-zero. The afterward
xas_pause() will move forward xas->index with xa->node->shift with bits
under node->shift un-masked and thus skip some index unexpectedly.
Consider following case:
Assume XA_CHUNK_SHIFT is 4.
xa_store_range(xa, 16, 31, ...)
xa_store(xa, 32, ...)
XA_STATE(xas, xa, 17);
xas_for_each(&xas,...)
xas_load(&xas)
/* xas->index = 17, xas->xa_offset = 1, xas->xa_node->xa_shift = 4 */
xas_pause()
/* xas->index = 33, xas->xa_offset = 2, xas->xa_node->xa_shift = 4 */
As we can see, index of 32 is skipped unexpectedly.
Fix this by mask bit under node->xa_shift when move forward index in
xas_pause().
For now, this will not cause serious problems. Only minor problem like
cachestat return less number of page status could happen.

Patch series "Fixes and cleanups to xarray", v5.
This series contains some random fixes and cleanups to xarray. Patch 1-2
are fixes and patch 3-6 are cleanups. More details can be found in
respective patches.
This patch (of 5):
Similar to issue fixed in commit cbc0285433 ("XArray: Do not return
sibling entries from xa_load()"), we may return sibling entries from
xas_find_marked as following:
Thread A: Thread B:
xa_store_range(xa, entry, 6, 7, gfp);
xa_set_mark(xa, 6, mark)
XA_STATE(xas, xa, 6);
xas_find_marked(&xas, 7, mark);
offset = xas_find_chunk(xas, advance, mark);
[offset is 6 which points to a valid entry]
xa_store_range(xa, entry, 4, 7, gfp);
entry = xa_entry(xa, node, 6);
[entry is a sibling of 4]
if (!xa_is_node(entry))
return entry;
Skip sibling entry like xas_find() does to protect caller from seeing
sibling entry from xas_find_marked() or caller may use sibling entry
as a valid entry and crash the kernel.
Besides, load_race() test is modified to catch mentioned issue and modified
load_race() only passes after this fix is merged.

- Have emulating atomic64 use arch_spin_locks instead of raw_spin_locks
The tracing ring buffer events have a small timestamp that holds the
delta between itself and the event before it. But this can be tricky
to update when interrupts come in. It originally just set the deltas
to zero for events that interrupted the adding of another event which
made all the events in the interrupt have the same timestamp as the
event it interrupted. This was not suitable for many tools, so it
was eventually fixed. But that fix required adding an atomic64 cmpxchg
on the timestamp in cases where an event was added while another
event was in the process of being added.
Originally, for 32 bit architectures, the manipulation of the 64 bit
timestamp was done by a structure that held multiple 32bit words to hold
parts of the timestamp and a counter. But as updates to the ring buffer
were done, maintaining this became too complex and was replaced by the
atomic64 generic operations which are now used by both 64bit and 32bit
architectures. Shortly after that, it was reported that riscv32 and
other 32 bit architectures that just used the generic atomic64 were
locking up. This was because the generic atomic64 operations defined in
lib/atomic64.c uses a raw_spin_lock() to emulate an atomic64 operation.
The problem here was that raw_spin_lock() can also be traced by the
function tracer (which is commonly used for debugging raw spin locks).
Since the function tracer uses the tracing ring buffer, which now is being
traced internally, this was triggering a recursion and setting off a
warning that the spin locks were recusing.
There's no reason for the code that emulates atomic64 operations to be
using raw_spin_locks which have a lot of debugging infrastructure attached
to them (depending on the config options). Instead it should be using
the arch_spin_lock() which does not have any infrastructure attached to
them and is used by low level infrastructure like RCU locks, lockdep
and of course tracing. Using arch_spin_lock()s fixes this issue.
- Do not trace in NMI if the architecture uses emulated atomic64 operations
Another issue with using the emulated atomic64 operations that uses
spin locks to emulate the atomic64 operations is that they cannot be
used in NMI context. As an NMI can trigger while holding the atomic64
spin locks it can try to take the same lock and cause a deadlock.
Have the ring buffer fail recording events if in NMI context and the
architecture uses the emulated atomic64 operations.

raw_spin_locks can be traced by lockdep or tracing itself. Atomic64
operations can be used in the tracing infrastructure. When an architecture
does not have true atomic64 operations it can use the generic version that
disables interrupts and uses spin_locks.
The tracing ring buffer code uses atomic64 operations for the time
keeping. But because some architectures use the default operations, the
locking inside the atomic operations can cause an infinite recursion.
As atomic64 implementation is architecture specific, it should not be
using raw_spin_locks() but instead arch_spin_locks as that is the purpose
of arch_spin_locks. To be used in architecture specific implementations of
generic infrastructure like atomic64 operations.
Note, by switching from raw_spin_locks to arch_spin_locks, the locks taken
to emulate the atomic64 operations will not have lockdep, mmio, or any
kind of checks done on them. They will not even disable preemption,
although the code will disable interrupts preventing the tasks that hold
the locks from being preempted. As the locks held are done so for very
short periods of time, and the logic is only done to emulate atomic64, not
having them be instrumented should not be an issue.

Core
----
- More core refactoring to reduce the RTNL lock contention,
including preparatory work for the per-network namespace RTNL lock,
replacing RTNL lock with a per device-one to protect NAPI-related
net device data and moving synchronize_net() calls outside such
lock.
- Extend drop reasons usage, adding net scheduler, AF_UNIX, bridge and
more specific TCP coverage.
- Reduce network namespace tear-down time by removing per-subsystems
synchronize_net() in tipc and sched.
- Add flow label selector support for fib rules, allowing traffic
redirection based on such header field.
Netfilter
---------
- Do not remove netdev basechain when last device is gone, allowing
netdev basechains without devices.
- Revisit the flowtable teardown strategy, dealing better with fin,
reset and re-open events.
- Scale-up IP-vs connection dumping by avoiding linear search on
each restart.
Protocols
---------
- A significant XDP socket refactor, consolidating and optimizing
several helpers into the core
- Better scaling of ICMP rate-limiting, by removing false-sharing in
inet peers handling.
- Introduces netlink notifications for multicast IPv4 and IPv6
address changes.
- Add ipsec support for IP-TFS/AggFrag encapsulation, allowing
aggregation and fragmentation of the inner IP.
- Add sysctl to configure TIME-WAIT reuse delay for TCP sockets,
to avoid local port exhaustion issues when the average connection
lifetime is very short.
- Support updating keys (re-keying) for connections using kernel
TLS (for TLS 1.3 only).
- Support ipv4-mapped ipv6 address clients in smc-r v2.
- Add support for jumbo data packet transmission in RxRPC sockets,
gluing multiple data packets in a single UDP packet.
- Support RxRPC RACK-TLP to manage packet loss and retransmission in
conjunction with the congestion control algorithm.
Driver API
----------
- Introduce a unified and structured interface for reporting PHY
statistics, exposing consistent data across different H/W via
ethtool.
- Make timestamping selectable, allow the user to select the desired
hwtstamp provider (PHY or MAC) administratively.
- Add support for configuring a header-data-split threshold (HDS)
value via ethtool, to deal with partial or buggy H/W implementation.
- Consolidate DSA drivers Energy Efficiency Ethernet support.
- Add EEE management to phylink, making use of the phylib
implementation.
- Add phylib support for in-band capabilities negotiation.
- Simplify how phylib-enabled mac drivers expose the supported
interfaces.
Tests and tooling
-----------------
- Make the YNL tool package-friendly to make it easier to deploy it
separately from the kernel.
- Increase TCP selftest coverage importing several packetdrill
test-cases.
- Regenerate the ethtool uapi header from the YNL spec,
to ease maintenance and future development.
- Add YNL support for decoding the link types used in net
self-tests, allowing a single build to run both net and
drivers/net.

Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
"This is slightly smaller than usual, with the most interesting work
being still around RTNL scope reduction.
Core:
- More core refactoring to reduce the RTNL lock contention, including
preparatory work for the per-network namespace RTNL lock, replacing
RTNL lock with a per device-one to protect NAPI-related net device
data and moving synchronize_net() calls outside such lock.
- Extend drop reasons usage, adding net scheduler, AF_UNIX, bridge
and more specific TCP coverage.
- Reduce network namespace tear-down time by removing per-subsystems
synchronize_net() in tipc and sched.
- Add flow label selector support for fib rules, allowing traffic
redirection based on such header field.
Netfilter:
- Do not remove netdev basechain when last device is gone, allowing
netdev basechains without devices.
- Revisit the flowtable teardown strategy, dealing better with fin,
reset and re-open events.
- Scale-up IP-vs connection dumping by avoiding linear search on each
restart.
Protocols:
- A significant XDP socket refactor, consolidating and optimizing
several helpers into the core
- Better scaling of ICMP rate-limiting, by removing false-sharing in
inet peers handling.
- Introduces netlink notifications for multicast IPv4 and IPv6
address changes.
- Add ipsec support for IP-TFS/AggFrag encapsulation, allowing
aggregation and fragmentation of the inner IP.
- Add sysctl to configure TIME-WAIT reuse delay for TCP sockets, to
avoid local port exhaustion issues when the average connection
lifetime is very short.
- Support updating keys (re-keying) for connections using kernel TLS
(for TLS 1.3 only).
- Support ipv4-mapped ipv6 address clients in smc-r v2.
- Add support for jumbo data packet transmission in RxRPC sockets,
gluing multiple data packets in a single UDP packet.
- Support RxRPC RACK-TLP to manage packet loss and retransmission in
conjunction with the congestion control algorithm.
Driver API:
- Introduce a unified and structured interface for reporting PHY
statistics, exposing consistent data across different H/W via
ethtool.
- Make timestamping selectable, allow the user to select the desired
hwtstamp provider (PHY or MAC) administratively.
- Add support for configuring a header-data-split threshold (HDS)
value via ethtool, to deal with partial or buggy H/W
implementation.
- Consolidate DSA drivers Energy Efficiency Ethernet support.
- Add EEE management to phylink, making use of the phylib
implementation.
- Add phylib support for in-band capabilities negotiation.
- Simplify how phylib-enabled mac drivers expose the supported
interfaces.
Tests and tooling:
- Make the YNL tool package-friendly to make it easier to deploy it
separately from the kernel.
- Increase TCP selftest coverage importing several packetdrill
test-cases.
- Regenerate the ethtool uapi header from the YNL spec, to ease
maintenance and future development.
- Add YNL support for decoding the link types used in net self-tests,
allowing a single build to run both net and drivers/net.

1) Per-CPU kthreads must stay affine to a single CPU and never execute
relevant code on any other CPU. This is currently handled by smpboot
code which takes care of CPU-hotplug operations. Affinity here is
a correctness constraint.
2) Some kthreads _have_ to be affine to a specific set of CPUs and can't
run anywhere else. The affinity is set through kthread_bind_mask()
and the subsystem takes care by itself to handle CPU-hotplug
operations. Affinity here is assumed to be a correctness constraint.
3) Per-node kthreads _prefer_ to be affine to a specific NUMA node. This
is not a correctness constraint but merely a preference in terms of
memory locality. kswapd and kcompactd both fall into this category.
The affinity is set manually like for any other task and CPU-hotplug
is supposed to be handled by the relevant subsystem so that the task
is properly reaffined whenever a given CPU from the node comes up.
Also care should be taken so that the node affinity doesn't cross
isolated (nohz_full) cpumask boundaries.
4) Similar to the previous point except kthreads have a _preferred_
affinity different than a node. Both RCU boost kthreads and RCU
exp kworkers fall into this category as they refer to "RCU nodes"
from a distinctly distributed tree.
Currently the preferred affinity patterns (3 and 4) have at least 4
identified users, with more or less success when it comes to handle
CPU-hotplug operations and CPU isolation. Each of which do it in its own
ad-hoc way.
This is an infrastructure proposal to handle this with the following API
changes:
_ kthread_create_on_node() automatically affines the created kthread to
its target node unless it has been set as per-cpu or bound with
kthread_bind[_mask]() before the first wake-up.
- kthread_affine_preferred() is a new function that can be called right
after kthread_create_on_node() to specify a preferred affinity
different than the specified node.
When the preferred affinity can't be applied because the possible
targets are offline or isolated (nohz_full), the kthread is affine
to the housekeeping CPUs (which means to all online CPUs most of the
time or only the non-nohz_full CPUs when nohz_full= is set).
kswapd, kcompactd, RCU boost kthreads and RCU exp kworkers have been
converted, along with a few old drivers.
Summary of the changes:
* Consolidate a bunch of ad-hoc implementations of kthread_run_on_cpu()
* Introduce task_cpu_fallback_mask() that defines the default last
resort affinity of a task to become nohz_full aware
* Add some correctness check to ensure kthread_bind() is always called
before the first kthread wake up.
* Default affine kthread to its preferred node.
* Convert kswapd / kcompactd and remove their halfway working ad-hoc
affinity implementation
* Implement kthreads preferred affinity
* Unify kthread worker and kthread API's style
* Convert RCU kthreads to the new API and remove the ad-hoc affinity
implementation.

- Have fprobes built on top of function graph infrastructure
The fprobe logic is an optimized kprobe that uses ftrace to attach to
functions when a probe is needed at the start or end of the function. The
fprobe and kretprobe logic implements a similar method as the function
graph tracer to trace the end of the function. That is to hijack the
return address and jump to a trampoline to do the trace when the function
exits. To do this, a shadow stack needs to be created to store the
original return address. Fprobes and function graph do this slightly
differently. Fprobes (and kretprobes) has slots per callsite that are
reserved to save the return address. This is fine when just a few points
are traced. But users of fprobes, such as BPF programs, are starting to add
many more locations, and this method does not scale.
The function graph tracer was created to trace all functions in the
kernel. In order to do this, when function graph tracing is started, every
task gets its own shadow stack to hold the return address that is going to
be traced. The function graph tracer has been updated to allow multiple
users to use its infrastructure. Now have fprobes be one of those users.
This will also allow for the fprobe and kretprobe methods to trace the
return address to become obsolete. With new technologies like CFI that
need to know about these methods of hijacking the return address, going
toward a solution that has only one method of doing this will make the
kernel less complex.
- Cleanup with guard() and free() helpers
There were several places in the code that had a lot of "goto out" in the
error paths to either unlock a lock or free some memory that was
allocated. But this is error prone. Convert the code over to use the
guard() and free() helpers that let the compiler unlock locks or free
memory when the function exits.
- Remove disabling of interrupts in the function graph tracer
When function graph tracer was first introduced, it could race with
interrupts and NMIs. To prevent that race, it would disable interrupts and
not trace NMIs. But the code has changed to allow NMIs and also
interrupts. This change was done a long time ago, but the disabling of
interrupts was never removed. Remove the disabling of interrupts in the
function graph tracer is it is not needed. This greatly improves its
performance.
- Allow the :mod: command to enable tracing module functions on the kernel
command line.
The function tracer already has a way to enable functions to be traced in
modules by writing ":mod:<module>" into set_ftrace_filter. That will
enable either all the functions for the module if it is loaded, or if it
is not, it will cache that command, and when the module is loaded that
matches <module>, its functions will be enabled. This also allows init
functions to be traced. But currently events do not have that feature.
Because enabling function tracing can be done very early at boot up
(before scheduling is enabled), the commands that can be done when
function tracing is started is limited. Having the ":mod:" command to
trace module functions as they are loaded is very useful. Update the
kernel command line function filtering to allow it.

"Features:
- Support caching symlink lengths in inodes
The size is stored in a new union utilizing the same space as
i_devices, thus avoiding growing the struct or taking up any more
space
When utilized it dodges strlen() in vfs_readlink(), giving about
1.5% speed up when issuing readlink on /initrd.img on ext4
- Add RWF_DONTCACHE iocb and FOP_DONTCACHE file_operations flag
If a file system supports uncached buffered IO, it may set
FOP_DONTCACHE and enable support for RWF_DONTCACHE.
If RWF_DONTCACHE is attempted without the file system supporting
it, it'll get errored with -EOPNOTSUPP
- Enable VBOXGUEST and VBOXSF_FS on ARM64
Now that VirtualBox is able to run as a host on arm64 (e.g. the
Apple M3 processors) we can enable VBOXSF_FS (and in turn
VBOXGUEST) for this architecture.
Tested with various runs of bonnie++ and dbench on an Apple MacBook
Pro with the latest Virtualbox 7.1.4 r165100 installed
Cleanups:
- Delay sysctl_nr_open check in expand_files()
- Use kernel-doc includes in fiemap docbook
- Use page->private instead of page->index in watch_queue
- Use a consume fence in mnt_idmap() as it's heavily used in
link_path_walk()
- Replace magic number 7 with ARRAY_SIZE() in fc_log
- Sort out a stale comment about races between fd alloc and dup2()
- Fix return type of do_mount() from long to int
- Various cosmetic cleanups for the lockref code

statement expressions")
- Fix proc_handler for sysctl_nr_open
- Flush delayed work in delayed fput()
- Fix grammar and spelling in propagate_umount()
- Fix ESP not readable during coredump

Pull vfs netfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains read performance improvements and support for monolithic
single-blob objects that have to be read/written as such (e.g. AFS
directory contents). The implementation of the two parts is interwoven
as each makes the other possible.
- Read performance improvements
The read performance improvements are intended to speed up some
loss of performance detected in cifs and to a lesser extend in afs.
The problem is that we queue too many work items during the
collection of read results: each individual subrequest is collected
by its own work item, and then they have to interact with each
other when a series of subrequests don't exactly align with the
pattern of folios that are being read by the overall request.
Whilst the processing of the pages covered by individual
subrequests as they complete potentially allows folios to be woken
in parallel and with minimum delay, it can shuffle wakeups for
sequential reads out of order - and that is the most common I/O
pattern.
The final assessment and cleanup of an operation is then held up
until the last I/O completes - and for a synchronous sequential
operation, this means the bouncing around of work items just adds
latency.
Two changes have been made to make this work:
(1) All collection is now done in a single "work item" that works
progressively through the subrequests as they complete (and
also dispatches retries as necessary).
(2) For readahead and AIO, this work item be done on a workqueue
and can run in parallel with the ultimate consumer of the data;
for synchronous direct or unbuffered reads, the collection is
run in the application thread and not offloaded.
Functions such as smb2_readv_callback() then just tell netfslib
that the subrequest has terminated; netfslib does a minimal bit of
processing on the spot - stat counting and tracing mostly - and
then queues/wakes up the worker. This simplifies the logic as the
collector just walks sequentially through the subrequests as they
complete and walks through the folios, if buffered, unlocking them
as it goes. It also keeps to a minimum the amount of latency
injected into the filesystem's low-level I/O handling
The way netfs supports filesystems using the deprecated
PG_private_2 flag is changed: folios are flagged and added to a
write request as they complete and that takes care of scheduling
the writes to the cache. The originating read request can then just
unlock the pages whatever happens.
- Single-blob object support
Single-blob objects are files for which the content of the file
must be read from or written to the server in a single operation
because reading them in parts may yield inconsistent results. AFS
directories are an example of this as there exists the possibility
that the contents are generated on the fly and would differ between
reads or might change due to third party interference.
Such objects will be written to and retrieved from the cache if one
is present, though we allow/may need to propose multiple
subrequests to do so. The important part is that read from/write to
the *server* is monolithic.
Single blob reading is, for the moment, fully synchronous and does
result collection in the application thread and, also for the
moment, the API is supplied the buffer in the form of a folio_queue
chain rather than using the pagecache.
- Related afs changes
This series makes a number of changes to the kafs filesystem,
primarily in the area of directory handling:
- AFS's FetchData RPC reply processing is made partially
asynchronous which allows the netfs_io_request's outstanding
operation counter to be removed as part of reducing the
collection to a single work item.
- Directory and symlink reading are plumbed through netfslib using
the single-blob object API and are now cacheable with fscache.
This also allows the afs_read struct to be eliminated and
netfs_io_subrequest to be used directly instead.
- Directory and symlink content are now stored in a folio_queue
buffer rather than in the pagecache. This means we don't require
the RCU read lock and xarray iteration to access it, and folios
won't randomly disappear under us because the VM wants them
back.
- The vnode operation lock is changed from a mutex struct to a
private lock implementation. The problem is that the lock now
needs to be dropped in a separate thread and mutexes don't
permit that.
- When a new directory or symlink is created, we now initialise it
locally and mark it valid rather than downloading it (we know
what it's likely to look like).
- We now use the in-directory hashtable to reduce the number of
entries we need to scan when doing a lookup. The edit routines
have to maintain the hash chains.
- Cancellation (e.g. by signal) of an async call after the
rxrpc_call has been set up is now offloaded to the worker thread
as there will be a notification from rxrpc upon completion. This
avoids a double cleanup.
- A "rolling buffer" implementation is created to abstract out the
two separate folio_queue chaining implementations I had (one for
read and one for write).
- Functions are provided to create/extend a buffer in a folio_queue
chain and tear it down again.
This is used to handle AFS directories, but could also be used to
create bounce buffers for content crypto and transport crypto.
- The was_async argument is dropped from netfs_read_subreq_terminated()
Instead we wake the read collection work item by either queuing it
or waking up the app thread.
- We don't need to use BH-excluding locks when communicating between
the issuing thread and the collection thread as neither of them now
run in BH context.
- Also included are a number of new tracepoints; a split of the
netfslib write collection code to put retrying into its own file
(it gets more complicated with content encryption).
- There are also some minor fixes AFS included, including fixing the
AFS directory format struct layout, reducing some directory
over-invalidation and making afs_mkdir() translate EEXIST to
ENOTEMPY (which is not available on all systems the servers
support).
- Finally, there's a patch to try and detect entry into the folio
unlock function with no folio_queue structs in the buffer (which
isn't allowed in the cases that can get there).
This is a debugging patch, but should be minimal overhead"

This merges the vsnprintf internal cleanups I did, which were triggered
by a combination of performance issues (see for example commit
f9ed1f7c2e: "genirq/proc: Use seq_put_decimal_ull_width() for decimal
values") and discussion about tracing abusing the vsnprintf code in odd
ways.
The intent was to improve code generation, but also to possibly
eventually expose the cleaned-up printf format decoding state machine.
It certainly didn't get to the point where we'd want to expose the
format decoding to external users, but it's an improvement over what we
used to have. Several of the complex case statements have been
simplified, or removed entirely to be replaced by simple table lookups.
* branch 'vsnprintf':
vsnprintf: fix the number base for non-numeric formats
vsnprintf: fix up kerneldoc for argument name changes
vsprintf: don't make the 'binary' version pack small integer arguments
vsnprintf: collapse the number format state into one single state
vsnprintf: mark the indirect width and precision cases unlikely
vsnprintf: inline skip_atoi() again
vsprintf: deal with format specifiers with a lookup table
vsprintf: deal with format flags with a simple lookup table
vsprintf: associate the format state with the format pointer
vsprintf: fix calling convention for format_decode()
vsprintf: avoid nested switch statement on same variable
vsprintf: simplify number handling
The test on whether rhashtable_insert_one did an insertion relies
on the value returned by rhashtable_lookup_one. Unfortunately that
value is overwritten after rhashtable_insert_one returns. Fix this
by moving the test before data gets overwritten.
Simplify the test as only data == NULL matters.
Finally move atomic_inc back within the lock as otherwise it may
be reordered with the atomic_dec on the removal side, potentially
leading to an underflow.
