In some use cases, it is desirable to only inject idle on certain set
of CPUs. For example on Alder Lake systems, it is possible that we force
idle only on P-Cores for thermal reasons. Also the idle percent can be
more than 50% if we only choose partial set of CPUs in the system.
Introduce 2 new module parameters for this purpose. They can be only
changed when the cooling device is inactive.
cpumask (Read/Write): A bit mask of CPUs to inject idle. The format of
this bitmask is same as used in other subsystems like in
/proc/irq/*/smp_affinity. The mask is comma separated 32 bit groups.
Each CPU is one bit. For example for 256 CPU system the full mask is:
ffffffff,ffffffff,ffffffff,ffffffff,ffffffff,ffffffff,ffffffff,ffffffff
The rightmost mask is for CPU 0-32.
max_idle (Read/Write): Maximum injected idle time to the total CPU time
ratio in percent range from 1 to 100. Even if the cooling device max_state
is always 100 (100%), this parameter allows to add a max idle percent
limit. The default is 50, to match the current implementation of powerclamp
driver. Also doesn't allow value more than 75, if the cpumask includes
every CPU present in the system.
Also when the cpumask doesn't include every CPU, there is no use of
compensation using package C-state idle counters. Hence don't start
package C-state polling thread even for a single package or a single die
system in this case.

kexec allows replacing the current kernel with a different one. This is
usually a source of concerns for sysadmins that want to harden a system.
Linux already provides a way to disable loading new kexec kernel via
kexec_load_disabled, but that control is very coard, it is all or nothing
and does not make distinction between a panic kexec and a normal kexec.
This patch introduces new sysctl parameters, with finer tuning to specify
how many times a kexec kernel can be loaded. The sysadmin can set
different limits for kexec panic and kexec reboot kernels. The value can
be modified at runtime via sysctl, but only with a stricter value.
With these new parameters on place, a system with loadpin and verity
enabled, using the following kernel parameters:
sysctl.kexec_load_limit_reboot=0 sysct.kexec_load_limit_panic=1 can have a
good warranty that if initrd tries to load a panic kernel, a malitious
user will have small chances to replace that kernel with a different one,
even if they can trigger timeouts on the disk where the panic kernel
lives.

stall.2023.01.09a: RCU CPU stall-warning updates.
|
|
The kernel assumes that the TSC frequency which is provided by the
hardware / firmware via MSRs or CPUID(0x15) is correct after applying
a few basic consistency checks. This disables the TSC recalibration
against HPET or PM timer.
As a result there is no mechanism to validate that frequency in cases
where a firmware or hardware defect is suspected. And there was case
that some user used atomic clock to measure the TSC frequency and
reported an inaccuracy issue, which was later fixed in firmware.
Add an option 'recalibrate' for 'tsc' kernel parameter to force the
tsc freq recalibration with HPET or PM timer, and warn if the
deviation from previous value is more than about 500 PPM, which
provides a way to verify the data from hardware / firmware.
There is no functional change to existing work flow.
Recently there was a real-world case: "The 40ms/s divergence between
TSC and HPET was observed on hardware that is quite recent" [1], on
that platform the TSC frequence 1896 MHz was got from CPUID(0x15),
and the force-reclibration with HPET/PMTIMER both calibrated out
value of 1975 MHz, which also matched with check from software
'chronyd', indicating it's a problem of BIOS or firmware.

Merge branch 'mm-hotfixes-stable' into mm-stable

This reverts commit 12a5d3955227b0d7e04fb793ccceeb2a1dd275c5.
Although it is recognized that a finer grained pro-active reclaim is
something we need and want the semantic of this implementation is really
ambiguous.
In a follow up discussion it became clear that there are two essential
usecases here. One is to use memory.reclaim to pro-actively reclaim
memory and expectation is that the requested and reported amount of memory
is uncharged from the memcg. Another usecase focuses on pro-active
demotion when the memory is merely shuffled around to demotion targets
while the overall charged memory stays unchanged.
The current implementation considers demoted pages as reclaimed and that
break both usecases. [1] has tried to address the reporting part but
there are more issues with that summarized in [2] and follow up emails.
Let's revert the nodemask based extension of the memcg pro-active
reclaim for now until we settle with a more robust semantic.

The canonical location for the tracefs filesystem is at /sys/kernel/tracing.
But, from Documentation/trace/ftrace.rst:
Before 4.1, all ftrace tracing control files were within the debugfs
file system, which is typically located at /sys/kernel/debug/tracing.
For backward compatibility, when mounting the debugfs file system,
the tracefs file system will be automatically mounted at:
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing
Many parts of Documentation still reference this older debugfs path, so
let's update them to avoid confusion.

The pata_parport is a libata-based replacement of the old PARIDE
subsystem - driver for parallel port IDE devices.
It uses the original paride low-level protocol drivers but does not
need the high-level drivers (pd, pcd, pf, pt, pg). The IDE devices
behind parallel port adapters are handled by the ATA layer.
This will allow paride and its high-level drivers to be removed.
Unfortunately, libata drivers cannot sleep so pata_parport claims
parport before activating the ata host and keeps it claimed (and
protocol connected) until the ata host is removed. This means that
no devices can be chained (neither other pata_parport devices nor
a printer).
paride and pata_parport are mutually exclusive because the compiled
protocol drivers are incompatible.
Tested with:
- Imation SuperDisk LS-120 and HP C4381A (EPAT)
- Freecom Parallel CD (FRPW)
- Toshiba Mobile CD-RW 2793008 w/Freecom Parallel Cable rev.903 (FRIQ)
- Backpack CD-RW 222011 and CD-RW 19350 (BPCK6)
The following bugs in low-level protocol drivers were found and will
be fixed later:
Note: EPP-32 mode is buggy in EPAT - and also in all other protocol
drivers - they don't handle non-multiple-of-4 block transfers
correctly. This causes problems with LS-120 drive.
There is also another bug in EPAT: EPP modes don't work unless a 4-bit
or 8-bit mode is used first (probably some initialization missing?).
Once the device is initialized, EPP works until power cycle.
So after device power on, you have to:
echo "parport0 epat 0" >/sys/bus/pata_parport/new_device
echo pata_parport.0 >/sys/bus/pata_parport/delete_device
echo "parport0 epat 4" >/sys/bus/pata_parport/new_device
(autoprobe will initialize correctly as it tries the slowest modes
first but you'll get the broken EPP-32 mode)
Note: EPP modes are buggy in FRPW, only modes 0 and 1 work.

The AMD Zen4 core supports a new feature called Automatic IBRS.
It is a "set-and-forget" feature that means that, like Intel's Enhanced IBRS,
h/w manages its IBRS mitigation resources automatically across CPL transitions.
The feature is advertised by CPUID_Fn80000021_EAX bit 8 and is enabled by
setting MSR C000_0080 (EFER) bit 21.
Enable Automatic IBRS by default if the CPU feature is present. It typically
provides greater performance over the incumbent generic retpolines mitigation.
Reuse the SPECTRE_V2_EIBRS spectre_v2_mitigation enum. AMD Automatic IBRS and
Intel Enhanced IBRS have similar enablement. Add NO_EIBRS_PBRSB to
cpu_vuln_whitelist, since AMD Automatic IBRS isn't affected by PBRSB-eIBRS.
The kernel command line option spectre_v2=eibrs is used to select AMD Automatic
IBRS, if available.

The tm6000 driver does not use the vb2 framework for streaming
video, instead it uses the old vb1 framework and nobody stepped in to
convert this driver to vb2.
The hardware is very old, so the decision was made to remove it
altogether since we want to get rid of the old vb1 framework.
